Hack 22 Recreate a Directory Structure Using mtree
Prevent or recover from rm disasters. Someday the unthinkable may happen. You're doing some routine maintenance and are distracted by a phone call or perhaps another employee's question. A moment later, you're faced with the awful realization that your fingers typed either a rm * or a rm -R in the wrong place, and now a portion of your system has evaporated into nothingness. Painful thought, isn't it? Let's pause for a moment to catch our breath and examine a few ways to prevent such a scenario from happening in the first place. Close your eyes and think back to when you were a fresh-faced newbie and were introduced to the omnipotent rm command. Return to the time when you actually read man rm and first discovered the -i switch. "What a great idea," you thought, "to be prompted for confirmation before irretrievably deleting a file from disk." However, you soon discovered that this switch can be a royal PITA. Face it, it's irritating to deal with the constant question of whether you're sure you want to remove a file when you just issued the command to remove that file. 2.11.1 Necessary InteractionFortunately, there is a way to request confirmation only when you're about to do something as rash as rm *. Simply make a file called -i. Well, actually, it's not quite that simple. Your shell will complain if you try this: % touch -i touch: illegal option -- i usage: touch [-acfhm] [-r file] [-t [[CC]Y]MMDDhhmm[.SS]] file ... You see, to your shell, -i looks like the -i switch, which touch doesn't have. That's actually part of the magic. The reason why we want to make a file called -i in the first place is to fool your shell: when you type rm *, the shell will expand * into all of the files in the directory. One of those files will be named -i, and, voila, you've just given the interactive switch to rm. So, how do we get past the shell to make this file? Use this command instead: % touch ./-i The ./ acts as a sort of separator instruction to the shell. To the left of the ./ go any options to the command touch; in this case, there are none. To the right of the ./ is the name of the file to touch in "this directory." In order for this to be effective, you need to create a file called -i in every directory that you would like to protect from an inadvertent rm *. An alternative method is to take advantage of the rmstar shell variable found in the tcsh shell. This method will always prompt for confirmation of a rm *, regardless of your current directory, as long as you always use tcsh. Since the default shell for the superuser is tcsh, add this line to /root/.cshrc: set rmstar
If you want to take advantage of the protection immediately, force the shell to reread its configuration file: # source /root/.cshrc 2.11.2 Using mtreeNow you know how to protect yourself from rm *. Unfortunately, neither method will save you from a rm -R. If you do manage to blow away a portion of your directory structure, how do you fix the mess with a minimum of fuss, fanfare, and years of teasing from your coworkers? Sure, you can always restore from backup, but that means filling in a form in triplicate, carrying it with you as you walk to the other side of the building where backups are stored, and sheepishly handing it over to the clerk in charge of tape storage. Fortunately for a hacker, there is always more than one way to skin a cat, or in this case, to save your skin. That directory structure had to be created in the first place, which means it can be recreated. When you installed FreeBSD, it created a directory structure for you. The utility responsible for this feat is called mtree. To see which directory structures were created with mtree: % ls /etc/mtree/ ./ BSD.root.dist BSD.x11-4.dist ../ BSD.sendmail.dist BSD.x11.dist BSD.include.dist BSD.usr.dist BSD.local.dist BSD.var.dist Each of these files is in ASCII text, meaning you can read, and more interestingly, edit their contents. If you're a hacker, I know what you're thinking. Yes, you can edit a file to remove the directories you don't want and to add other directories that you do. Let's start with a simpler example. Say you've managed to blow away /var. To recreate it: # mtree -deU -f /etc/mtree/BSD.var.dist -p /var where:
When you run this command, the recreated files will be echoed to standard output so you can watch as they are created for you. A few seconds later, you can: % ls /var ./ crash/ heimdal/ preserve/ yp/ ../ cron/ lib/ run/ account/ db/ log/ rwho/ at/ empty/ mail/ spool/ backups/ games/ msgs/ That looks a lot better, but don't breathe that sigh of relief quite yet. You still have to recreate all of your log files. Yes, /var/log is still glaringly empty. Remember, mtree creates a directory structure, not all of the files within that directory structure. If you have a directory structure containing thousands of files, you're better off grabbing your backup tape. There is hope for /var/log, though. Rather than racking your brain for the names of all of the missing log files, do this instead: % more /etc/newsyslog.conf # configuration file for newsyslog # $FreeBSD: src/etc/newsyslog.conf,v 1.42 2002/09/21 12:07:35 markm Exp $ # # Note: some sites will want to select more restrictive protections than the # defaults. In particular, it may be desirable to switch many of the 644 # entries to 640 or 600. For example, some sites will consider the # contents of maillog, messages, and lpd-errs to be confidential. In the # future, these defaults may change to more conservative ones. # # logfilename [owner:group] mode count size when [ZJB] [/pid_file] [sig_num] /var/log/cron 600 3 100 * J /var/log/amd.log 644 7 100 * J /var/log/auth.log 600 7 100 * J /var/log/kerberos.log 600 7 100 * J /var/log/lpd-errs 644 7 100 * J /var/log/xferlog 600 7 100 * J /var/log/maillog 640 7 * @T00 J /var/log/sendmail.st 640 10 * 168 B /var/log/messages 644 5 100 * J /var/log/all.log 600 7 * @T00 J /var/log/slip.log root:network 640 3 100 * J /var/log/ppp.log root:network 640 3 100 * J /var/log/security 600 10 100 * J /var/log/wtmp 644 3 * @01T05 B /var/log/daily.log 640 7 * @T00 J /var/log/weekly.log 640 5 1 $W6D0 J /var/log/monthly.log 640 12 * $M1D0 J /var/log/console.log 600 5 100 * J There you go, all of the default log names and their permissions. Simply touch the required files and adjust their permissions accordingly with chmod. 2.11.3 Customizing mtreeLet's get a little fancier and hack the mtree hack. If you want to be able to create a homegrown directory structure, start by perusing the instructions in /usr/src/etc/mtree/README. The one rule to keep in mind is don't use tabs. Instead, use four spaces for indentation. Here is a simple example: % more MY.test.dist #home grown test directory structure /set type=dir uname=test gname=test mode=0755 . test1 .. test2 subdir2a .. subdir2b .. subsubdir2c mode=01777 .. .. .. Note that you can specify different permissions on different parts of the directory structure. Next, I'll apply this file to my current directory: # mtree -deU -f MY.test.dist and check out the results: # ls -F test1/ test2/ # ls -F test1 # # ls -F test2 subdir2a/ subdir2b/ # ls -F test2/subdir2b subsubdir2c/ As you can see, mtree can be a real timesaver if you need to create custom directory structures when you do installations. Simply take a few moments to create a file containing the directory structure and its permissions. You'll gain the added bonus of having a record of the required directory structure. 2.11.4 See Also

So do you spend your time on Fridays doing creative things?
I'm in a particularly thinky place right now. Thinking about Portland and how it's changing / has changed. Thinking about me, where I've been, where I'm going. Where has my writing gone, and what do I when I have down time?


@sgblank 가 쓴, 9 Deadliest Start-up Sins 에서.
Excerpts from The Startup Owner’s Manual: The Step-By-Step Guide for Building a Great Company
Confusing traditional job titles with a startup’s needs
Most startups simple borrow job titles from established companies. But remember, these are jobs in an organization that’s executing a known business model. The term “Sales” at an existing company refers to a team that repeatedly sells a known product to a well- understood group of customers with standard presentations, prices, terms, and conditions. Start-ups by definition have few, if any, of these. In fact, they’re out searching for them!
이미 돈을 버는 프로세스가 셋업된, well-established 비즈니스를 가진 조직에서 타이틀을 가져왔는데, 사람들이 그 타이틀에 갖혀버리면 최악.
i.e. 기존 조직의 Sales 란 자리는 이미 있는 제품을 이미 있는 고객들한테 이미 있는 채널을 통해서 이미 정해진 가격과 조건으로 파는 것.
v.s. 스타트업에는?
자리가 사람을 만든다는 말이 항상 긍정적인 뜻만을 가진 것은 아님.
Writing a business plan that doesn’t allow for trial and error
Traditional business plans and product development models have one great advantage: They provide boards and founders an unambiguous path with clearly defined milestones the board presumes will be achieved. Financial progress is tracked using metrics like income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow. The problem is, none of these metrics are very useful because they don’t track progress against your start-up’s only goal: to find a repeatable and scalable business model.
손익계산서가 스타트업 초기의 목표가 될 수는 없음.
Plan 과 그 달성 여부를 측정할 metric 선정을 잘해야 함.
투자자와 갈등의 요소가 될 수 있음.
스타트업의 목표는 repeatable & scalable business model 을 찾아내는 것.
Emphasizing execution instead of testing, learning, and iteration
Established companies execute business models where customers, problems, and necessary product features are all knowns; start-ups, on the other hand, need to operate in a “search” mode as they test and prove every one of their initial hypotheses. They learn from the results of each test, refine the hypothesis, and test again—all in search of a repeatable, scalable, and profitable business model. In practice, start-ups begin with a set of initial guesses, most of which will end up being wrong. Therefore, focusing on execution and delivering a product or service based on those initial, untested hypotheses is a going-out-of-business strategy.
Ram Charan 의 책에 나오는 execution 컨셉으로 접근하기에는 스타트업의 초기 시간들은 그 다이나미즘이 많이 다름.
실행을 강조하는 문화는, 어느정도 자리가 잡힌 조직에서 효과가 발휘되며,
스타트업에서는 빠르게 프로토타입을 만들고 런칭하고 배우고, 계속 개선하고… 이런 것들을 강조하는 것이 더 나음.
Focusing on the launch date
Traditionally, engineering, sales, and marketing have all focused on the immovable launch date. Marketing tries to pick an “event” (trade show, conference, blog, etc.) where they can “launch” the product. Executives look at that date and the calendar, working backward to ignite fireworks on the day the product is launched. Neither management nor investors tolerate “wrong turns” that result in delays.
서비스 런칭 날짜를 심각하게 받아들이지 말고, 이 정도면 첫번째 릴리즈를 내보내도 되겠다… 정도로 생각할 것. 고객을 다 파악해서 완벽한 제품을 만들어서 짜잔! 이런 건 없음.
Assuming you know what the customer wants
To succeed, founders need to turn these guesses into facts as soon as possible by getting out of the building, asking customers if the hypotheses are correct, and quickly changing those that are wrong.
고객이 원하는 것을 다 알고 이런 것은 없음. 부딪혀보고 Iteration.
The “I know what feature to build” flaw
These founders specify, design, and build a fully featured product using classic product development methods without ever leaving their building. Yet without direct and continuous customer contact, it’s unknown whether the features will hold any appeal to customers.
- 고객이 원하는 것을 나는 알아!(일단 여기서부터 틀리고),
- 어떤 기능들을 구현해야겠다로 가버려서,
- 열심히 너무 많이 만들어 버리면,
- 골때려지는 상황이 올수 있음.


Bashco store in Kingston robbed
The police are probing a major robbery at the Bashco store on Orange Street in Kingston.
The robbery happened sometime between last night and this morning.
Reports are that the intruders made off with millions in cash and merchandise however Omar Azan, Marketing and Public Relations Manager at Bashco, declined to give a figure saying the matter is still under investigation.
“We are still evaluating what was taken and what was damaged,” Azan told The Gleaner.
The police told our news team that the perpetrators entered the building through the roof, adding that investigators are still examining evidence including CCTV footage.
“It’s a big store, a big building, is a whole heap of stuff and we have to go through it,” said Azan.
The store has since been reopened to the public.
The robbery is the latest in what appears to be a series of break-ins as some business operators in the capital say that they are being plagued by burglars who are seemingly outmatching the police.
Last week, the police high command announced that there would be heightened presence in a number of public spaces including in downtown Kingston with the approach of the Christmas season.


Dance is a unique passion and gift. To dance is to express through movements. In this new day of age we see so many using this gift to express messages that lead people a stray from God, and communicating ideas with little worth. Praising Bones uses dancing to share God's message with the world, and have a whole lot of fun doing it!

 I am the founder of Praising Bones! I have a deep passion for dance that I never knew what to do with, but I found my calling. God had called me to creating this company that connects passion and faith. I spent a few years as a kid at a hip hop dance company, and I absolutely loved it. What I didn't really realize until I was older was the negative atmosphere that I was being introduced to. I mean eight year old kids dancing to songs about drugs and strippers; as you can imagine my parents pulled me out of that really quickly. I had to learn and evolve my technique on my own. As time went on I was asked to be a councilor at one of my friends dance camps for kids. I was now the influencer instead of the one being influenced. Everything I did impacted these kids lives. I knew that moving forward what I was called to do; bring faith back into the world of dance.


public interface HGHandleFactory
The HGHandleFactory
is used to manage persistent handles
for the atoms of HyperGraph
instance. One such factory is configured
per HyperGraphDB instance via the HGConfiguration
passed when the instance
is opened. The factory is responsible for creating new HGPersistentHandle
s
that must be unique at least within the current database instance. Certain factories
can also guarantee universal uniqueness (e.g. in a distributed environment or across
the Internet). Factories are also responsible for creating handle out of their
String
or byte[]
representations. The main requirement that
a handle factory implementation must observe is that all
persistent handles must be of the exact same byte[]
size. For example, this
rules out the use of URIs as persistent handles.

Return the representation of a null persistent handle. A null
handle is a single instance and therefore can be compared for equality by
doing direct Java object reference comparison. A null handle can be
recorded in storage as any other persistent handle - it refers to no

The anyHandle
is a persistent handle constant that represents
a "don't care" handle during querying and comparison operations. It can be used, for
instance, when defining an OrdererLinkCondition
in a query.
For efficiency reasons, the equals
method of the various implementations of
the HGHandle
interface ignore this constant, even though it would be
more consistent to for anyHandle.equals(x)
and x.equals(anyHandle)
to always return true.

Aleksandar Vucic: Serbia Doesn’t Intend to Be a NATO or CSTO Member
Serbia remains committed to military neutrality policy and has no intention of joining either NATO or the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO). This was stated by Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic during a press conference, TACC reports.
"We will not change our policy toward Russia. We remain in brotherly relations, we will not change policy, we will not join NATO or CSTO," Vucic said.
"There is a lot of pressure on the country, on the defense industry," he added. "We are not going to change our position, and we will also fight for maintating military neutrality in order to defend our airspace and territory, to strengthen intelligence and counterintelligence. We have opportunities to do so, and Serbia will be even stronger," he stressed.

Every Family has a Video Camera The Celebration
By Ross Anthony
Gritty, grainy, shot with available light and a video camera -- so it looks like your family videos. Although, I do hope this isn't your family.
And no doubt, directed a heck of a lot better than your videos. Vinterberg (director) whips his little vid cam around like it's taped to the remote control toy car from a "Home Alone" film.
The story follows Christian, a full grown man with childhood issues yet to resolve, as he changes the tone of this family celebration.
"The Celebration" showcases excellent acting, a great screenplay, and new innovative cinematography that is exciting and exhausting at the same time.
Directed and co-written by: Thomas Vinterberg (Vinterberg is a member of a collective of film directors (Dogme 95) who oppose the auteur concept, make-up, illusions and dramaturgical predictability; letting 'the inner lives of the characters justify the plot.') In Danish with English subtitles.

Congratulations, you're now exposed as an IAM operative. You made it way too obvious. Only an undercover operative could possibly choose to ignore so much evidence of subversive activity. If you wanted to infiltrate us, you should at least have given us a fall guy of some kind.

To my knowledge, no other picture made on the Chinese mainland for worldwide distribution opens with quite the flair of this one. A pulsating drumbeat adds rhythm to a crisply dressed young man's brisk walk to an ATM in a spanking city whose downtown area seems filled with all the urbanity of New York's Rockefeller Center. He enters a building, takes off his clothes which are to be quickly dry cleaned, inserts some coins in an automatic laundry, and puts himself under a shower.  Large brushes twirl around hitting his body, then retreating, only to attack the gentleman again, massaging his back while adding soap and washing him off. Overhead dryers discharge torrents of hot air that make his hair stand on end.  End of drumbeat. For a few minutes you might think you've wandered into the trailer for a James Bond movie. This is a China that most of us in the West do not know, a place in which at least a lucky proportion of the 1.3 billion population are making the big ones. In fact you might even think that director Zhang Yang, whose work was recently featured at New York's New Directors/New Films series, is feeding us propaganda from the moment the protagonist gets his own brainwashing under the steamy torrents of water.
The big irony is that we are indeed receiving propaganda but of a sort opposite that which we have been led to believe. If Zhang is not exactly prescribing a return to communism in China, he is at least shedding some cinematic tears over its demise. We're not talking about the totalitarian communism practiced by Chairman Mao or about the forced labor of the commune, but the kind of communism that emphasizes the word's root: community. Community, to Zhang, is being lost in China's race to prosper, in its abandoning of the basic principles of neighborhood, a common trust, a one-big-family spirit missing in the West.
But "Shower" is anything but a dull political tract: in fact politics as such does not even enter the picture. This is a sincere, appropriately sentimental and often humorous look at an old man's family, one which has seen its eldest son deserting the fold to go for the riches of the southern Chinese industrial district of Shenzhen while his dad and his retarded brother remain behind in battered Beijing surroundings.
Stories of sons reaching out to their estranged fathers when the time for reconciliation is virtually past are not uncommon, but Zhang gives this strain a uniquely Chinese beat. The story opens with panache as yuppie Da Ming (Pu Cun Xin), having given himself a razzle-dazzle wash-up, flies north to Beijing believing that his father, Master Liu (Zhu Xu), has died. Looking with disappointment, even scorn, on his mentally challenged brother, Er Ming (Jiang Wu), he is nonetheless relieved to see that his father is still very much alive, and happily running a broken-down bathhouse that accommodates mostly elderly men. While the older man provides the hot water in which the customers communally bathe as though in a prehistoric version of a Japanese tub, he massages their backs and strokes their egos, dispensing avuncular advice about issues ranging from domestic relations to the care and training of fighting crickets. The men drink tea, play chess, and watch their cricket matches, occasionally disturbed by the resonant singing of "O Sole Mio" by a chubby teen patron--who is able to sing only when water pours about his body.
Da Ming sees his father for the first time...a man who lovingly takes care of his handicapped son, racing him around the block and competing with him in the water, and being looked up to by the motley denizens of the bathhouse--which provides even pedicures among its various services. As Da Ming and Master Liu become re-acquainted, the older man tells his career-oriented son the almost mythical story of his meeting decades ago with his wife, who had come from a dry and dusty region of China which provided few baths indeed for its citizens.  The baths and adjacent housing are to be torn down to build a shopping center.
"Shower" is a bitter-sweet tale of reconciliation that hasn't an insincere bone in its body. The portrayals are authentic, the ensemble acting is appropriately muted and lively as called for by the situations. You cannot be blamed if you see your own community here in the West threatened by the sort of spirit-numbing gentrification that has taken place in the name of progress, obviously giving this picture a universality missing from even some of the great works of Zhang Yimou.
The film won the FIPRESCI Award at the 1999 Toronto Film Festival and has been exhibited--with other prizes as well--at San Sebastian, Thessaloniki, Vancouver, Sundance and Rotterdam.

RAVENOUS (20th Century Fox) Starring: Guy Pearce, Robert Carlyle, Jeffrey Jones, Jeremy Davies, David Arquette, Stephen Spinella. Screenplay: Ted Griffin. Producers: Adam Fields and David Heyman. Director: Antonia Bird. MPAA Rating: R (violence, gore, profanity) Running Time: 100 minutes. Reviewed by Scott Renshaw.
It's okay for a horror film to be a metaphor; in fact, they can work best on an underlying psychological level. The original THE THING and INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS served as analogs to Cold War-era anti-Communist paranoia, while any number of takes on the vampire legend have delved into drug addiction effectively. A scary film can be more than just scary, but it shouldn't work so hard at it that the whole thing becomes a pretentious, preposterous mess. RAVENOUS is just such a convoluted concoction, throwing mountains of sub-text at its tale of cannibalism in the vain hope that something might stick, instead of merely "ick."
The setting for RAVENOUS is a remote U.S. Army outpost called Fort Spencer, a way-station hidden in the Sierra Nevadas of California circa 1847. Fort Spencer is the new assignment of Capt. John Boyd (Guy Pearce), a soldier bearing a tainted medal of honor after his cowardice led to an inadvertent triumph during the Spanish-American War. Boyd discovers that Fort Spencer is populated by an odd crew of outcasts -- introspective Col. Hart (Jeffrey Jones), peyote-fueled cook Cleaves (David Arquette), drunken doctor Knox (Stephen Spinella) -- but the strangest case is yet another new arrival. His name is Colqhoun (Robert Carlyle), a man discovered half-dead in the snow with quite a tale to tell. It's the a tale of a stranded westward party that turned into a cannibalistic feast, a tale of how the consumption of human flesh created a strange sort of monster.
Every once in a while, when RAVENOUS settles down for some good old-fashioned terror tension, you can almost enjoy it. There are a few nicely staged confrontations and creepy moments in Antonia Bird's direction (or perhaps that of Milcho Manchevski, the director replaced two weeks into production), including a sequence involving a sneak attack that builds far longer than you might think possible. Writer Ted Griffin slips a few darkly comic lines into the dialogue, and Robert Carlyle's manic performance helps support that tone whenever he's on screen.
How much more tolerable RAVENOUS might have been if Griffin and Bird had been content to let the black comedy guide them. Instead, it becomes a potpourri of narrative notions and random themes: the dehumanizing destruction of battle (i.e., war itself as cannibalism), the mad drive for the American frontier (i.e., the Manifest Destiny as cultural/ecological cannibalism), the equally mad drive for the gold in them thar hills (i.e., the Gold Rush as economic cannibalism), plus yet another gloss on addiction, and on and on to a dizzying degree, with the Native American myth of the Weendigo thrown in for good measure. Boyd's tortured quandary over whether to join this particular Diners' Club is played as such grand opera, infused with such socio-political baggage, that Guy Pearce looks like he's carrying the entire weight of Western Civilization on his shoulders in every scene.
No one's saying that the jaunty gruesomeness of EATING RAOUL is the only possible approach for a successful foray into same-species snacking. It may, however, be the best approach. When Jeffrey Jones is cracking wise while supping on a human stew, RAVENOUS begins to emerge from its coma of self-importance; when he pleads to be relieved of the misery of his hunger, you wonder when he suddenly developed a character of any significance. At a certain point, RAVENOUS becomes so consumed with putting a heady spin on its subject matter that it consumes itself. A horror film with something to say between shocks is fine.
On the Renshaw scale of 0 to 10 hungry hungry humans: 4.

23.3. Python and Java Programming with Jython23.3.1. What Is Jython?Jython is one of those tools that can unite two diverse programming populations. For one, it caters to Python programmers embedded in a Java development environment and gives them the ability to rapidly prototype solutions that seamlessly integrate into an existing Java platform. Another reason is that it helps simplify the lives of millions of Java programmers out there by giving Java a scripting language environment. No longer do Java programmers have to write a test harness or driver application to simply test a class they have just written. Jython gives you most of what Python has to offer along with the ability to instantiate and interact with Java classes too! Jython code is dynamically compiled into Java bytecode, plus you can extend Java classes in Jython. You can also extend Python using Java. It is quite easy to write a class in Python and then use it as a Java class. You can always statically compile a Jython script into Java bytecode. Jython can be downloaded from the book's Web site or at http://jython.org. After installation and seeing some default startup notices of processing new .jar files, starting up Jython's interactive interpreter looks eerily like you're using Python. And yes, Virginia, you can still do the same old "Hello World!" in Python: $ jython Jython 2.2a1 on java1.4.2_09 (JIT: null) Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> print 'Hello World!' Hello World! >>> >>> import sys >>> sys.stdout.write('Hello World!\n') Hello World! The only difference is that you now have (to wait for) Java's long startup time. Once you have accepted that inevitability, you can move on to greater things. The more interesting thing about the Jython interactive interpreter is that now you can do "Hello World!" using Java(!): >>> from java.lang import System >>> System.out.write('Hello World!\n') Hello World! Java gives Python users the added bonuses of native exception handling (not available in standard Python, or "CPython" as it is called, when being referred to among other implementations) as well as use of Java's own garbage collector (so Python's did not have to be [re]implemented for Java). 23.3.2. Swing GUI Development (Java or Python!)By having access to all Java classes, we have a much broader universe of what is possible. One example is GUI development. In Python, we have the default GUI of Tk via the Tkinter module, but Tk is not a native Python toolkit. However, Java does have Swing, and it is native. With Jython, we can actually write a GUI application using Swing components ... not with Java, but using Python. A simple "Hello World!" GUI written in Java followed by its equivalent in Python is given in Examples 23.7 and 23.8, respectively, both of which mimic the Tk examples tkhello3.py found earlier in the GUI programming chapter. These programs are called swhello.java and swhello.py, respectively. Example 23.7. Swing "Hello World" in Java (swhello.java)
Example 23.8. Swing "Hello World" in Python (swhello.py)
The code for both matches that of tkhello3.py except they use Swing instead of Tk. The hallmark of the Python version is the significant reduction in the number of lines of code necessary to do the same thing in Java. The Python code is more expressive, with each line of code having more significance. In short, there is less "white noise." Java code tends to have a lot more boilerplate code to get work done, while Python lets you concentrate on the important parts of your application: the solution to the problem you are trying to solve. Since both applications are compiled to Java bytecode, it is no surprise that both applications look exactly alike when executing on the same platform (see Figure 23-8). Figure 23-8. Swing Hello World Demonstration Scripts (swhello.{java,py})
Jython is a great development tool because you get the expressiveness of Python plus the rich API in the Java libraries. If you are a current Java developer, we hope that we have whet your appetite in terms of what you can now do with the power of Python behind you. If you are new to Java, Jython will be able to ease you in gently. You can prototype in Jython, then port easily to Java as necessary. |


The evolution of sexual harassment awareness
Sexual harassment ranges from annoying to illegal. There was a time when it was "accepted" as a form of hazing, the price of being a woman in the workplace. Teasing, groping, and worse were often tolerated, as was employee termination if a woman didn't provide sexual favors to her harasser. That began to change as women sought redress through the courts in the 1970s and '80s. A growing body of legal precedents and the passage of laws strengthening the Civil Rights Act have made the threat of a sexual harassment lawsuit a serious financial risk for companies today. Here's a look at some of the legal moves and high-profile cases that have raised awareness of this issue.
1. The rise of sexual harassment lawsuits
The prohibition against discrimination based on sex was added to Title VII of The Civil Rights Act of 1964 at the last minute before Congress passed the bill. The US Capitol building in Washington is pictured.
(Melanie Stetson Freeman/Staff)
Sexual harassment lawsuits started out by taking on quid pro quo situations in which a woman lost her job if she would not sleep with her boss (Barnes v. Train in 1974). The 1978 book "Sexual Shakedown: The Sexual Harassment of Women on the Job" by Lin Farley raised the public profile of the issue and is often credited with bringing the term "sexual harassment" into popular use.
In 1980 the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) stated that sexual harassment is a form of sex discrimination prohibited by the Civil Rights Act of 1964, issuing regulations that defined the offense. The "hostile environment" legal precedent was set in 1986 in Meritor Savings Bank v. Vinson. Now, sexually charged remarks were grounds for a lawsuit. As a result, employers' liability grew, and plaintiffs' burden of proof diminished.
The Civil Rights Act of 1991 expanded the rights of women to sue and collect damages for sexual discrimination or harassment. The "reasonable woman" standard entered into law in 1991 with Ellison v. Brady. Cases would now be considered from the point of view of the complainant instead of the defendant.
2.Lois E. Jenson v. Eveleth Taconite Co.
Charlize Theron stars as a miner in the 2005 film 'North Country,' a fictionalized account of a major sexual harassment case.
(Richard Foreman/Warner Brothers)
In 1975, Lois Jenson started working in a mine in northern Minnesota's Iron Range. Almost from the beginning, according to court documents, Ms. Jenson and other women were subjected to sexual harassment, verbal abuse, threats, stalking, and intimidation. This behavior has since become known as "strategic" or "territorial harassment," in this case acts perpetrated by men in a predominately male workplace.
In 1984, Jenson wrote a complaint about the abuse to the Minnesota Department of Human Rights. The mine's co-owner, Ogelbay Norton Co., refused the state's request to pay $6,000 in punitive damages and $5,000 to Jenson for mental anguish.
In 1988, Jenson's attorney, Paul Sprenger, filed the United States' first class-action sexual harassment lawsuit on behalf of Jenson and other women who worked for the mining company. After a lengthy legal process in which the details of their personal lives were made public, Jenson and the other plaintiffs were awarded $10,000 apiece in 1996. However, the judgment was appealed and reversed by the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals in 1997, and a new jury trial was ordered.
Just before the trial was to begin in 1998, 15 women settled with Eveleth Mines for a total of $3.5 million. The case became the subject of a book entitled "Class Action" in 2002 and in 2005 was made into a film called "North Country" starring Charlize Theron.
3.Clarence Thomas/Anita Hill
Anita's Hill's accusations against Clarence Thomas brought sexual harassment to the fore of public consciousness.
(Jason Reed/Reuters; Stringer/Reuters)
Clarence Thomas's confirmation to the US Supreme Court seemed assured until a report of an FBI interview with former assistant Anita Hill was leaked to the press. Ms. Hill testified at Mr. Thomas's confirmation hearings in 1991 that, after she declined to see him socially, he began making sexually suggestive remarks to her that made her uncomfortable. Thomas denied the allegations.
While Hill's accusations ultimately did not prevent Thomas from becoming a Supreme Court justice, workplace rights experts say the episode brought the topic of sexual harassment into everyday conversation, inspiring much debate about what kind of talk and behavior is inappropriate in the workplace.
Soon after Thomas was confirmed, Congress passed a law giving sexual harassment victims the right to seek federal damages, back pay, and reinstatement -- a bill that President George H.W. Bush had initially opposed.
4. Gen. Larry Smith/Lt. Gen. Claudia Kennedy
Army Lt. Gen. Claudia Kennedy sought to block the promotion of Gen. Larry Smith because she said he had sexually harassed her.
(Reuters)
Retired United States Army Lt. Gen. Claudia Jean Kennedy served 31 years in the military. As the highest-ranking female officer in the Army, she was seen as a symbol of gender equity in the military. But in 1999, as she was nearing retirement, fellow officer Gen. Larry Smith was up for promotion to Army deputy inspector general -- a position in which he would be responsible for investigating sexual harassment claims.
When Kennedy found out about Smith's impending promotion, she decided -- "out of loyalty to the Army" (according to an Army report about the matter) -- to make known to her superiors that he was an inappropriate choice for the position. She charged Smith with touching her in an unwanted sexual manner and kissing her in 1996 when she was a major general and he was a brigadier general.
In 2000, the results of an inquiry by the Army's Inspector General became public: The conclusion was, based on Kennedy's credibility, that Smith had made wrongful sexual advances to her. Smith's appointment was withdrawn, and he requested early retirement, expressing dismay at the Army's decision to substantiate Kennedy's allegations and insisting that he was innocent of the charges.

Bob Packwood, a longtime United States senator from Oregon, resigned in 1995 after at least 29 women (among them campaign workers, congressional aides, and interns) accused him of sexual harassment and, in some cases, assault. Mr. Packwood denied the allegations. Despite the fact that the Senate's Ethics Committee found evidence supporting 17 of the claims, the Justice Department decided not to prosecute him.
Reports about the women coming forward started to hit the news before Packwood's reelection in 1992, but it took 2-1/2 years for the weight of their accusations to lead to Packwood's resignation. The National Organization for Women (NOW) wanted the charges investigated by the Ethics Committee before he was officially seated. There were demonstrations, and in response the Senate leadership announced that the senators were being seated "conditionally."
After months of mounting evidence against Packwood, Sen. Barbara Boxer (D) of California insisted that the Ethics Committee pursue charges. Finally, for what Sen. Barbara Mikulski (D) of Maryland called his "systematic abuse of women, power, and this Senate," the committee recommended that Packwood be expelled.
6.President Bill Clinton/Paula Jones

Despite being the object of a lawsuit and impeached by the House of Representatives, then-President Bill Clinton developed a reputation as the "Teflon president" for his imperviousness to the repercussions of scandal.
The sexual harassment lawsuit brought against Mr. Clinton in 1994 by former Arkansas state employee Paula Jones never went to trial because of her failure to show any damages. After the dismissal of the lawsuit was appealed, Clinton settled with Ms. Jones out of court in 1998 and paid her and her lawyers $850,000, according to court documents.
During the depositions for the Jones case, Clinton was questioned about his relationships with employees. He denied having a sexual relationship with White House intern Monica Lewinsky. He was charged with perjury and obstruction of justice, and subsequently impeached on those grounds by the House of Representatives, but not by the Senate.


Woods commits to play as host of Genesis Invitational
Tiger Woods is looking ahead to 2020 by committing to play in The Genesis Invitational, the Feb. 13-16 event in which he’ll serve as tournament host.
The tournament, which will be played at Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades, Calif., near Los Angeles, is the first he has announced on his 2020 schedule. Previously known as the Genesis Open, its status has been elevated by cutting the field from 144 to 120 players with a hike in prize money from $7.4 million to $9.3 million.
The winner of the event will receive a three-year PGA Tour exemption instead of the usual two.
With the tourney’s status falling in line with events attached to two of the game’s legendary players — the Arnold Palmer Invitational and the Jack Nicklaus-hosted Memorial Tournament, Woods is pleased with the distinction.
“It’s an honor for us to be in the same category as Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer,” Woods said in a statement. “Those are two legends of the game. For us to have that type of elevation, all the things we want to have happen for the tournament are going to happen.”
Woods, a Southern California native, did not play in the PGA Tour’s Los Angeles-area event from 2007-2017, and he has never won at Riviera in 13 attempts. He tied for 15th last season, when J.B. Holmes erased a 4-shot deficit going into the final round to earn his fifth career PGA Tour victory.
Woods, 43, tied Sam Snead’s PGA Tour record of 82 career titles by winning the inaugural ZOZO Championship in Japan late last month. It’s not known if The Genesis Invitational will be Woods’ first chance to break the record. He often opens his PGA Tour golfing calendar at the Farmers Insurance Open in late January at Torrey Pines in La Jolla, Calif.
