News story
Ofqual’s Board gives go-ahead for test to help inform GCSE awarding.
The first National Reference Test (NRT), which will be taken by about 18,000 students, will be held in February and March 2017, the exams regulator, Ofqual, confirmed today (2 September).
Each year a sample of students will take the same test so it will show, over time, if there is any change in how students perform at a national level. Exam boards currently have limited evidence of how performance can change from year to year, so the test has the potential to provide valuable additional information to inform their awarding of GCSEs.
The test was developed by the National Foundation for Educational Research (NFER). Today’s announcement follows careful consideration by Ofqual’s Board of the outcomes of a trial test held in March . The trial showed that the test materials were ready and that NFER’s administration had worked well. Marking of students’ responses and analysis of the test data also went to plan.
Sally Collier, Chief Regulator, Ofqual, said: “The trial went very smoothly and has demonstrated that the test is ready to go live. We will make sure that schools taking part are well supported and more generally explain how the results have a clear potential to benefit GCSE awarding.”
About 1 in 40 students in year 11 in England will take the test annually. The first test will be held between 20 February and 3 March 2017. NFER will contact the 300 schools that have been selected to take part later this month. Up to 30 students will take the test in English and another 30 students will take the maths test in each of these schools. NFER will select students so that the test results will be nationally representative.
Results from the NRT will only be used to measure changes in performance nationally and these will be published. There will be no results for individual students or schools.
The test reflects the content and style of the new English language and maths GCSEs. We would expect to see an improvement in early NRT results as student and teacher familiarity with those new qualifications increases . This, alongside the need to compare the performance of student cohorts over several years, means information from the test will not be immediately used in awarding.
We have today published separately a set of guidance issued by NFER to schools who will take part in the test . A postcard along with an overview of the test are also available and we have published a blogpost . We are also publishing our contract with NFER .

/**
* @function can.Construct.setup setup
* @parent can.Construct.static
*
* @description Perform initialization logic for a constructor function.
*
* @signature `can.Construct.setup(base, fullName, staticProps, protoProps)`
*
* A static `setup` method provides inheritable setup functionality
* for a Constructor function. The following example
* creates a Group constructor function. Any constructor
* functions that inherit from Group will be added to
* `Group.childGroups`.
*
*
* Group = can.Construct.extend({
* setup: function(Construct, fullName, staticProps, protoProps){
* this.childGroups = [];
* if(Construct !== can.Construct){

* var Flock = Group.extend(...)
* Group.childGroups[0] //-> Flock
*
* @param {constructor} base The base constructor that is being inherited from.
* @param {String} fullName The name of the new constructor.
* @param {Object} staticProps The static properties of the new constructor.
* @param {Object} protoProps The prototype properties of the new constructor.
*
* @body
* The static `setup` method is called immediately after a constructor
* function is created and
* set to inherit from its base constructor. It is useful for setting up
* additional inheritance work.
* Do not confuse this with the prototype `[can.Construct::setup]` method.
*
* ## Setup Extends Defaults
*
* Setup deeply extends the static `defaults` property of the base constructor with
* properties of the inheriting constructor. For example:
*
* @codestart
* Parent = can.Construct.extend({
* defaults : {
* parentProp: 'foo'
* }
* },{})
*
* Child = Parent.extend({
* defaults : {
* childProp : 'bar'
* }
* },{}
*
* Child.defaults // {parentProp: 'foo', 'childProp': 'bar'}
* @codeend
*
* ## Example
*
* This `Parent` class adds a reference to its base class to itself, and
* so do all the classes that inherit from it.
*
* @codestart
* Parent = can.Construct.extend({
* setup : function(base, fullName, staticProps, protoProps){
* this.base = base;
*
* // call base functionality
* can.Construct.setup.apply(this, arguments)
* }
* },{});
*
* Parent.base; // can.Construct
*
* Child = Parent({});
*
* Child.base; // Parent
* @codeend

/**
* @function can.Construct.extend extend
* @parent can.Construct.static
*
* @signature `can.Construct.extend([name,] [staticProperties,] instanceProperties)`
*
* Extends `can.Construct`, or constructor functions derived from `can.Construct`,
* to create a new constructor function. Example:
*
* Animal = can.Construct.extend({
* sayHi: function(){
* console.log("hi")
* }
* })
* var animal = new Animal()
* animal.sayHi();
*
* @param {String} [name] Creates the necessary properties and
* objects that point from the `window` to the created constructor function. The following:
*
* can.Construct.extend("company.project.Constructor",{})
*
* creates a `company` object on window if it does not find one, a
* `project` object on `company` if it does not find one, and it will set the
* `Constructor` property on the `project` object to point to the constructor function.
*
* Finally, it sets "company.project.Constructor" as [can.Construct.fullName fullName]
* and "Constructor" as [can.Construct.shortName shortName].
*
* @param {Object} [staticProperties] Properties that are added the constructor
* function directly. For example:
*
* Animal = can.Construct.extend({
* findAll: function(){
* return can.ajax({url: "/animals"})
* }
* },{});
*
* Animal.findAll().then(function(json){ ... })
*
* The [can.Construct.setup static setup] method can be used to
* specify inheritable behavior when a Constructor function is created.
*
* @param {Object} instanceProperties Properties that belong to
* instances made with the constructor. These properties are added to the
* constructor's `prototype` object. Example:
*
* Animal = can.Construct.extend({
* init: function(name){
* this.name = name;
* },
* sayHi: function(){
* console.log(this.name,"says hi")
* }
* })
* var animal = new Animal()
* animal.sayHi();
*
* The [can.Construct::init init] and [can.Construct::setup setup] properties
* are used for initialization.
*
* @return {function} The constructor function.

*
* @return {Array|undefined} If an array is returned, the array's items are passed as
* arguments to [can.Construct::init init]. The following example always makes

* WidgetFactory = can.Construct.extend({
* setup: function(element){
* return [$(element)]
* }
* })
*
* MyWidget = WidgetFactory.extend({
* init: function($el){

* }
* })
*
* Otherwise, the arguments to the
* constructor are passed to [can.Construct::init] and the return value of `setup` is discarded.
*
* @body
*
* ## Deciding between `setup` and `init`
*
*
* Usually, you should use [can.Construct::init init] to do your constructor function's initialization.
* Use `setup` instead for:
*
* - initialization code that you want to run before the inheriting constructor's
* `init` method is called.
* - initialization code that should run whether or not inheriting constructors
* call their base's `init` methods.
* - modifying the arguments that will get passed to `init`.
*
* ## Example
*
* This code is a simplified version of the code in [can.Control]'s setup
* method. It converts the first argument to a jQuery collection and
* extends the controller's defaults with the options that were passed.
*
*
* can.Control = can.Construct.extend({
* setup: function(domElement, rawOptions) {
* // set up this.element
* this.element = $(domElement);
*
* // set up this.options
* this.options = can.extend({},
* this.constructor.defaults,
* rawOptions
* );
*
* // pass this.element and this.options to init.
* return [this.element, this.options];
* }
* });
*

/**
* @function can.Construct.prototype.init init

* @description Called when a new instance of a can.Construct is created.
*
* @signature `construct.init(...args)`
* @param {*} args the arguments passed to the constructor (or the items of the array returned from [can.Construct::setup])
*
* @body
* If a prototype `init` method is provided, it is called when a new Construct is created,
* after [can.Construct::setup]. The `init` method is where the bulk of your initialization code
* should go, and a common thing to do in `init` is to save the arguments passed into the constructor.
*
* ## Examples
*
* First, we'll make a Person constructor that has a first and last name:
*
* @codestart
* var Person = can.Construct.extend({
* init: function(first, last) {
* this.first = first;
* this.last = last;
* }
* });
*
* var justin = new Person("Justin", "Meyer");
* justin.first; // "Justin"
* justin.last; // "Meyer"
* @codeend
*
* Then we'll extend Person into Programmer and add a favorite language:
*
* @codestart
* var Programmer = Person.extend({
* init: function(first, last, language) {
* // call base's init
* Person.prototype.init.apply(this, arguments);
*
* // other initialization code
* this.language = language;
* },
* bio: function() {
* return "Hi! I'm "" + this.first + " " + this.last +
* " and I write " + this.language + ".";
* }
* });
*
* var brian = new Programmer("Brian", "Moschel", 'ECMAScript');
* brian.bio(); // "Hi! I'm Brian Moschel and I write ECMAScript.";
* @codeend
*
* ## Modified Arguments
*
* [can.Construct::setup] is able to modify the arguments passed to `init`.
* If you aren't receiving the exact arguments as those passed to `new Construct(args)`,
* check to make sure that they aren't being changed by `setup` somewhere along
* the inheritance chain.

Sara Weinstein’s graduate education gave her subject knowledge, discipline, and a love of learning. But when switching careers from neuroscience to data science, she found she lacked some other key resources: guidance, accountability, and time. With SlideRule’s curated online curriculum and personal attention from her SlideRule mentor, she gained the skills and confidence she needed to land her dream job as a data scientist.
I tried learning on my own, and it was overwhelming.
When I started considering Data Science as the next step in my career, I knew there was a lot I needed to learn. I have a PhD in Neuroscience, but as I looked at the descriptions for the jobs I wanted, I realized pretty quickly that I don’t have all the technical skills I needed.
I spent over a year trying to learn them on my own. My strategy was to study statistics and machine learning through online courses. But with all the options out there, it seemed overwhelming. There was no way I could complete 8 online courses just to get my foot in the door – I had a full-time job as a research officer for the government, plus two kids to manage too.
I kept stalling, until I found SlideRule. I loved that they had curated the best content for me, so I didn’t have to wade through everything myself. I’m also someone who does better with a bit of external pressure, and I knew that having a mentor would help me move a lot faster than I’d been able to alone.
From our very first meeting, I knew my mentor was special.
My first meeting with my mentor, Ike, set the tone for a very productive relationship. We spent a lot of time talking about what I was interested in and what I wanted to get out of SlideRule. He kept asking me questions about particular parts of Data Science that I wanted to learn more about. I thought it was nice of him to be so interested, but I thought he was just being polite.
Several hours later, I got an email from him with a long list of resources tailored specifically to what I’d told him I wanted to learn. I was absolutely flabbergasted – it must have taken him at least an hour. Here was this total stranger who had taken the time to identify a whole bunch of books, PDFs and papers just for me, that I would not have found on my own. It was just amazing!
Hearing real Data Scientists talk was invaluable.
Data Science is a pretty broad field, with lots of names and terms to learn. When I started, I felt like I knew what my strengths were and my skill set, but I didn’t know the right words to use. I constantly worried about betraying the fact that I was an outsider by saying the wrong thing.
In SlideRule’s mentor calls and office hours, I got to hear how actual Data Scientists talk and the kind of vocabulary they used. I learned what they meant when they talked about things like “data pipelines” and “data warehousing.” So when I got stuck, I had a much better idea of what to search for on Google or how to frame questions in the right way. Most importantly, I felt a lot less insecure when I started looking for jobs, since I had a stronger grasp over what I was talking about.
I’m so happy to go to work every day!
For weeks, I’d seen a posting for a job with Boeing that I knew I wanted, but I wasn’t sure I was ready. My mentor encouraged me to go after it. We did mock interviews, and he sent me lists of the things I needed to prepare for technical interviews. He held my hand the whole way through the process – which is a big reason I got the job!
At work, I build models to help airplane crews and analysts pull out information from maintenance logs and schedules. I use supervised and unsupervised learning methods to do things like anomaly detection, so we make sure we see important issues that come up. In other projects, I’ve worked with time series data and implemented over 15 different types of algorithms, like mean shift detection, to identify outliers.
I’m so happy to go to work every day. It's so much fun, and it's exactly what I imagined my dream job. My experience shows that it might be tough to get there, but with the right help, you definitely can!

Jennifer Adamson Clanahan
Democrat
I am currently the Colorado State Director for a non-profit organization called Mountain Mamas. We amplify women’s voices into a movement to ensure our kids grow up in a healthy climate with clean air and access to public lands. Resume attached.
I am a graduate of South High School in Denver and of University of Colorado in Boulder. I have a B.A. in Anthropology.
80206
I have worked for and volunteered for several elected officials, candidates and campaigns. As you’ll see from my resume, I have worked for elected officials on Denver City Council as well as Members of Congress, both on campaigns and in official offices. I have not however worked for any of them in the last four years. Donations I’ve made since 2015 include Joe Biden’s Presidential campaign, John Hickenlooper, Hillary Clinton, Theresa Greenfield, Steve Bullock, Amy McGrath, Jaime Harrison, Cal Cunningham, Mark Kelly, Michael Bennet, Faith Winter, Paul Lopez, the Democratic National Committee.
I’m a member of the PTA at my daughter’s elementary school, I’ve volunteered there as a Class mom, a Character education program volunteer, on fundraising events, field day and many other events. I’ve also volunteered as a poll watcher for the Democratic party, with Impact Locally to feed those experiencing homelessness in Denver, and with Moms Demand Action. I’m a member of organizations such as Conservation Colorado, the Wild Animal Sanctuary, and Girl Scouts of Colorado where I’ve been a member, volunteer and mom of a Girl Scout. I also partnered with them to create a new Girl Scout patch in Colorado, which I’m told is one of their most popular.
Organizing, representing and advocating describes the majority of my nearly 30 year career, the last 20 of which have been here at home in Colorado. I have advocated for conservation issues as well as a number of other issues with non-profit organizations doing everything from writing letters to the editor to organizing events to writing action alerts to organize others to advocate for issues. I’ve served on Boards of Directors and represented those organization in the community, as well as the various elected officials for whom I have worked. I have also represented the interests of groups when briefing elected officials. It’s a two-way street! I’ve also represented the interests of my neighborhood and small businesses in our neighborhood to City Council during meetings and decision-making processes.
I am passionate about government that works to make the world better for those it serves and that means serving all its constituents equally. I strongly believe that everyone deserves equal representation. Gerrymandering has diminished or unduly strengthened the representation of some groups to the detriment of others. It must stop. I would love to be a part of the solution delivering Colorado a fair map that gives everyone the same opportunities and I believe I have the experience and the skills to do so.
Because I am passionate about equal rights and equal representation in our government, I will work hard to find the plan that is truly beneficial for everyone. I will be impartial as I listen to all members of the public and their feedback about proposed maps. I believe in our government and our Democratic systems. For them to work properly though each person must receive the same rights, representation and ability to shape their government. It’s the reason that I have personally been so active in campaigns and in government, because I believe in our system and want to do everything I can to ensure that it’s the best it can be. I’ve also grown up in a tightknit family with widely different political views. It is a continual lesson in really listening to others and understanding other perspectives. My family has offered lessons I carry with me in all facets of my life and work.
I worked for several years for a private foundation where my primary responsibility was to review, analyze and recommend grant applications for funding. I had to determine which ones would best meet the goals of the foundation. It required analytical skills, asking the right questions and listening carefully to the answers of those seeking funds along with a full understanding of the foundation’s goals. Similarly, I was appointed by Governor Ritter to serve on the Colorado’s Wildlife Habitat Stamp Committee, the committee tasked with reviewing and selecting proposals for funding from the state to protect wildlife habitat. Analytical skills have also been critical to my work in reviewing proposed legislation for elected officials within the context of what is best for constituents.

How Preston North End role helped Sean Maguire get off the mark at international level
by Dave SeddonSean Maguire thinks being able to replicate the role he plays for Preston helped him score his first goal for the Republic of Ireland.
The 25-year-old netted in the Emerald Isle’s 3-1 win over New Zealand in a friendly at the Aviva Stadium on Thursday evening.
Maguire was handed a starting role on the left-hand side of the attack, similar to the position he has filled for PNE for the majority of this season.
He pulled the trigger from 20 yards to find the net and now hopes to be involved in the Republic’s must-win Euro 2020 qualifier against Denmark on Monday night.
It was Maguire’s seventh international cap, the goal coming two years on from his Ireland debut.
Maguire said: “I have played off the left at Preston all of this season and I think I have been doing really well there. When the gaffer told me I was going to be playing off the left, I fancied myself to get in positions to score.
“I was absolutely delighted to score – it is a dream to score for your country.
“It’s about time too, it is just over two years since I made my debut against Moldova – it’s been a long time coming.”
Not too many of Maguire’s 16 goals for Preston have come from outside the box.
His three this season were close-range efforts but he was on the edge of the ‘D’ when he rifled home Ireland’s second goal in Dublin.
Said Maguire: “The one I scored was probably the hardest of the four or five chances I got. When I got it out of my feet and struck the ball, I knew it was going in.”
Maguire played 73 minutes on Thursday, PNE team-mate Alan Browne substituted after 66 minutes.
Both are likely to be in the matchday squad for the Denmark game, probably on the bench to start with.
Maguire seems to have found himself a niche in the North End side on the left.
He played as the central striker in the opening-day defeat at Millwall and did not make much impact against two physical centre-backs.
The move to the side, playing as an inside-forward rather than a winger, has seen him get more joy.
Maguire was on target in the victories against Wigan, Brentford and Birmingham.
He played particularly well against Huddersfield last week and has been enjoying his longest run of matches in the Lilywhites side since signing from Cork City for £130,000 in July 2017.
If the Republic can beat Denmark in Dublin, there would be the chance for Maguire and Browne to play in next summer’s Euros.
The tournament is being played around Europe rather than in one country, with Dublin a host city.

Coats needed for cold winter
by Romelo StylesFAIRFIELD, Iowa — SIEDA Community Action in Fairfield, Iowa, is currently having a coat drive.
They have received around 100 coats and about half of them have already been taken, so the need is urgent.
"I think probably right now we have had around 100 that have gone out and i still have some that we haven't been able to hang up. We've never really set a goal. We are just are trying to keep people as warm as possible in the cold time," says Community Action Program Specialist Carol Long.
If you would like to donate any new or gently used coats, snow pants, gloves, scarves, or hats, you can bring them to the new Fairfield SIEDA location at 2200 W Jefferson Avenue in Fairfield.

NAKED LUNCH A film review by Ken Johnson Copyright 1992 Ken Johnson
120 min., R, Drama, 1991 Director: David Cronenberg Cast: Peter Weller, Judy Davis, Ian Holm, Julian Sands, Roy Scheider, Monique Mercere, Nicholas Campbell, Robert A. Silverman
During 1950's in New York City bug exterminator Peter Weller gets introduced to injecting bug powder into himself by his wife Judy Davis. He gets addicted and starts hallucinating. He sees giant bugs which start controlling his life, as he sinks lower and lower.
I really can't recommend this film to anyone, because most people will hate this film. It is really bizarre and at some points it seems to be a pointless jumble of nothing. Other people will probably really like this film. I personally felt the film was okay, it wasn't the best film I have ever seen, but I thought that it was worth watching. On a scale of zero to five, I give NAKED LUNCH a three. NAKED LUNCH is rated R for explicit language and adult situations.
NAKED LUNCH is very bizarre, especially when Weller is under the influence of the bug powder, and I think that this turned a lot of people off on the film. The bugs were well created, especially the typewriter bug. I think that a lot of thought went into the design and it greatly improved the film. Peter Weller (ROBOCOP) put in a wonderful performance, along with the rest of the cast.
I think that the bugs were the best part of the film. As I mentioned earlier, they were really creative. I don't think that I have ever experienced a film like this one before. I got the feeling during the film that I was the one high on the powder and the movie was my hallucination (I know this isn't true because other film reviews on it have come out. Philosophy students might want to argue that this isn't proof, but it is to me.).
I haven't yet read the book NAKED LUNCH by William S. Burroughs, but I have heard it has little to do with the film. NAKED LUNCH is now out on video, but I would suggest that if the film sounds interesting to you that you seek out an art theater that is still playing it. I saw the film at my local art theater, and after thinking about it, I feel that a lot of the impact of the film has will be lost on video cassette. If the film doesn't sound interesting to you, I would suggest that you don't bother to see it, even off video cassette, because you probably wouldn't like it.

lesson 1: Introduction
something about what we are teaching here.
Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text.  Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32.

lesson 2: Add element to end
describe how to add an element to the end.
here are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don't look even slightly believable. If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn't anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text. All the Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat predefined chunks as necessary, making this the first true generator on the Internet. It uses a dictionary of over 200 Latin words, combined with a handful of model sentence structures, to generate Lorem Ipsum which looks reasonable. The generated Lorem Ipsum is therefore always free from repetition, injected humour, or non-characteristic words etc.

lesson 3: Add element to front
describe how to add an element to the front.
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum

Non governmental bodies are doing a great job but what if their event goes unnoticed and they run out of funds ? Well, this happens quite frequently and especially for a newly established organisation, it becomes next to impossible to lay their foundation stone. There is just one solution to it - ACTIVE PUBLIC PARTICIPATION It's not uncommon to see half torn posters about the social events on the station wall. But this is definitely not the only way of creating awareness among the people. Time's changing rapidly. Newspapers are being replaced by electronic gadgets. Tech is the go-to tool to promote an event – or anything, really. It’s free and almost everyone uses it. After researching, we found that there are not many popular platforms where both organizer and volunteer share their interests and participate actively in the events happening. We have www.insider.in where people usually search for fun events. Now that's definitely not a place where social events can get a chance to stand. So, we need a fully dedicated platform just for the promotion of non profit events. Since a website can be accessed from anywhere and anytime, we chose to use this medium. Our main aim is to do a little for the betterment of the society through the knowledge that we possess.

Ah no! The weather for the weekend is set to be pure sh**e
by Fiona KellyGorgeous morning isn't it, lads?
Nothing like a bit of torrential rain to really put a spring in your step when you're on the way to the bus stop to send the morning sandwiched between other humans in a steamy sweatbox that smells like stale socks.
Well, it's not going to get much better for the rest of the day (or weekend in general) with Met Eireann forecasting plenty of rain - with a risk of flooding in some areas.
The national forecaster has said the weekend is set to be a washout.
Today will be mostly cloudy with outbreaks of rain in many areas, heaviest in the south Leinster with a risk of spot flooding.
Highest temperatures will be 7 to 10 degrees with mostly moderate easterly breezes.
Tonight will continue mostly cloudy with further outbreaks of rain, which will be heaviest over the east of the country with a continued risk of spot flooding in places. Lowest temperatures overnight will be a bit higher than previous days at of 3 to 6 degrees.
Tomorrow will continue mostly cloudy with outbreaks of rain in most areas and highest temperatures of 7 to 9 degrees.
For the weekend, it looks like we can expect more grey and cloudy skies, with plenty more rain.
Met Eireann said: "Friday night will be mostly cloudy. Early in the night, persistent rain will develop in the east. The rain will become widespread for a time, and will mainly affect the southern half of the country overnight. It will be heaviest in Leinster with a risk of spot flooding.
"Saturday will be mostly cloudy with outbreaks of showery rain, which will be heaviest over the eastern half of the country. Amounts will be smaller further west with some bright or sunny intervals. Highest temperatures of 7 to 9 degrees with moderate northeast breezes. On Saturday night, rain and drizzle will become light and patchy. Lowest temperatures of 2 to 6 degrees.
"Sunday will continue mostly cloudy with dry intervals and some patchy rain in the morning. Through the afternoon and evening, persistent rain will spread from the south and will extend to all areas on Sunday night. It will be heavy in many areas. Highest temperatures of 7 to 10 degrees with moderate easterly breezes."
Right, so it's definitely a weekend to sit at home and binge watch Christmas movies. And no, it's not too early. We are willing to fight you on this.


I practiced this excercise with my partner. We found that looping really helped to understand each others thoughts and it stopped us from misinterpreting each other, we also both found that dipping stopped us from getting distacted by other thoughts.
I will use looping to stenghen my mindful conversation as I found this the most helpful when practising with my partner.

TRAINING DAY RATING: 7/10 http://www.joblo.com/trainingday.htm
For more reviews and movie trailers, visit http://www.joblo.com/
PLOT: This movie takes place over one day. It's a rookie cop's narcotics training alongside a seasoned police veteran. The rookie doesn't know much about "street justice", so the older cop teaches him about the way things work in the "real world". How even cops like themselves have to "bend the rules" and "break the law" every now and then, in order to catch the really bad guys.
CRITIQUE: A pretty intense little movie with solid acting across the board, some ups, some downs and a thrilling ending, despite a couple of small flaws. I really enjoyed this movie because it followed two extreme characters and put them in situations which had me wondering about what I would do if I were in their place. The film gets right into the "dirty" side of, well...the dirt on the streets, and proceeds to teach the rookie cop (and us, the audience) how things really work down there. Of course, we're receiving this lesson from a man who has put away a lot of scum in his time, but the things he seems to be doing aren't exactly on the up-and-up either. And therein, lies the fun of the film. Do you agree that you yourself would need to break a few small laws in order to put away the people who break the really big ones? Well, as the film moves along, we're given two points of view in respect to this predicament, and to me, both sides made sense at some point or another. And you gotta give a lot of credit to the screenplay for that, the director, who builds the film up wonderfully (with the darkness of the day leading to the darkness in the script) and the two actors who deliver their parts in spades.
And Denzel, well, what can you say about Mr. Washington that hasn't already been said before? He comes through as per his usual high-level style here, and gives the audience a completely different side to his talent, of which, I personally would like to see more.  The few problems that I did have with this film included the redundant nature of the whole thing at some point (okay, we get it...you have to be nasty in order to deal with these nasty people...move on) and this one really major "coincidence" which involved a bathtub, that saved the day for one character, but seemed a little too "convenient" for my taste. I also never really understood how Washington's character got out of a certain dire predicament, only to be seen driving his car in the very next scene. But obviously these small flaws didn't taint my overall enjoyment of this tense drama, a film that gets you right into the streets, into the nooks and the crannies, and into the moral dilemma which lies between the justice system and the day-to-day drug busts. See it if you want to wrestle with some of these issues yourself, see it if you want to see Denzel and Ethan strike up a palpable chemistry on-screen, and see it if you like holding on to your seat-handles real tight during a movie. In fact, see it for the scene in which Ethan Hawke plays cards with a host of gang-bangers alone...dang, now that's intense!

Santander Launching Ripple-Powered Payments in Six New Corridors, Banking Giant Not Utilizing XRP
by Daily Hodl StaffSpanish banking giant Santander says it will soon expand its use of Ripple’s cross-border payments platform.
In a recent conference held by the Institute of International and European Affairs, managing director of digital investment banking at Santander, John Whelan, talked about the company’s efforts in blockchain.
He says the company will bring its Ripple-powered payments platform called One Pay FX to all 10 of its main corridors in the near future.
“We actually have a blockchain-based international payments system that’s running on four of our corridors: Brazil, Mexico, UK, Spain. It’ll be on all 10 soon. Instant transfers at very, very tight spreads: 30 basis points.
It’s a nice user experience. I use it myself. I sent money to the United States. It’s available same-day. Fantastic, and at a guaranteed rate.”
In April of this year, Santander executive chair Ana Botín said One Pay FX is now powering more than half of Santander Group’s FX payments.
“With this new initiative that is already in place, we’re actually covering 50% of all the FX payments that the Santander Group does annually.
And it works really well, because the rails that we’re using – which, as you say, we’ve collaborated with Ripple – we’ve been testing those for two years, actually with our own employees. And it works.
It’s safe. It’s fully compliant, and obviously we’ve made sure we comply with all local regulations. So you’re in safe hands.”
One Pay FX launched in October of 2018.
It utilizes Ripple’s primary cross-border payment messaging system, which is designed to be a faster alternative to Swift. One Pay FX does not utilize On-Demand Liquidity, which is powered by XRP.
Santander’s support desk set off a whirlwind of rumors back in March, when it mistakenly stated that it was using XRP.
Santander then retracted the statement and clarified it only uses Ripple’s xCurrent, which does not utilize the digital asset.


What this video has clarified for me is that EDA is a rigorous approach to team-driven learning, teaching skills rather than (or perhaps alongside) tools.
Instinctually I sense that we will all be challenged in a multitude of ways during this process. I took special note of the "deny yourself security of numbers" that Sherif brought up related to graduation and employment rates.
I'm really excited to get more in the "kitchen rather than table" approach to learning. Heirarchical learning has brought me elements of stress, comparison, and egoism throughout the years, particularly as a teacher. I am very enthusiastic to explore this new learning style, which requires both effort and humility from us all.
Changed isn't the word I'd use. I'd say they've deepened -- the intentions and values I've witnessned at play at EDA were expanded and deepened throughout Sherif's video.
To quote Ming (and Amy Poehler), "yes please!" Certainly I am excited for this new chapter, experience, and style... and you bet your bottom dollar I've got nerves! But working through them, observing my mind, and developing a more friendly relationship with this experience of discomfort is already proving a rewarding journey.

Dazzle
Tips
- Many players don't notice that Dazzle's claim to fame is that all of his spells revolve around physical
damage. Poison Touch ticks physically, Shadow Wave heals and deals damage physically, and Weave is all
about mitigating armor value. SUCH SYNERGY.
- Be smart about using heals post-Shallow Grave. I'm fine if you Grave someone at 50% HP, because at least
you're trying. Just don't waste heals on a 1HP Shallow Graved ally when there are 4 seconds left on the
Grave clock. Wait for the ring around them to drop to the ground (when it does, time's up) and then
immediately Mek+Shadow Wave them and watch the enemies freak out.
- For some reason you can Shallow Grave illusions. Mind game potential too strong.
- Shallow Grave to an immediate TP can get you out of nearly every gank situation early game unless you're
against some sort of Mirana, Rhasta, Lion lane.
- Dazzle has a instance of damage around himself when Shadow Wave is cast. When pushing, stand in the
middle of enemy creeps to take advantage of this.
- What's that Omniknight? You can't heal spell immune allies? Dazzle badger don't care about no BKB. You
can Shadow Wave or Weave any BKB'd ally or enemy. Even if the enemy activates a BKB post-Weave it won't
get purged. Dazzle badger don't care.
- You can heal couriers with Shadow Wave.
- Weave priority list goes as follows: During pushes, whichever team is pushing gets the Weave.  In team fights, Weave as soon
as possible on as much as possible. If your team has more physical damage, Weave the enemies and vice
versa.
- Weave is a useful scouting tool. Use it to check the Rosh pit from afar or scout high ground. The vision
radius is huge, the cast range is very generous, and the cooldown is low enough that it's usually okay
to 'waste' it.
 One Shadow Wave
will quickly tear you apart, especially if you have low armor.
- Ancient Apparition makes life hard for Dazzle (and other healers) with Ice Blast. Ice Blast won't
kill/shatter someone who's Graved, but Dazzle can't heal them up to protect them.
- Culling Blade kills through Shallow Grave.
- Shallow Grave ends when the ring falling around the hero touches the ground.
- Eul's can potentially be used to kill 1 HP Shallow Graved targets since Dazzle can't heal them when they're
cycloned and the damage from Eul's will be lethal.
- Weave keeps adding up over time. Just because you're doing fine in the first few seconds of a team fight
doesn't mean you'll hold up as well when you're at -5 armor. Make team fights snappy when fighting
against a Dazzle.

The Big-o-notation - Quantifying complexity of algorithms
April 1st 2016
But it started simple…
As a programmer it is important to understand the impact of the algorithms you write. Simple logic may work well with limited datasets but can grow into a sluggish mess when working with larger datasets… The 'big-o-notation' enhances the programmer's awareness of the complexity his/her algorithms may create in worst case scenario's.
The Big-O-Notation
The big-o-notation is a way to measure how well an algorithm scales as the amount of data involved increases.
In sum: "How well will the algorithm behave with an array of 10 elements compared to an array of 10,000 elements?"
In such kind of notation, you will want to look at the worst possible outcome of your algorithm in order to identify (and optimize!) the bottlenecks in your code.
Different kinds of efficiency
In programming, there are often many ways to obtain a same outcome. In practice however your code is interpreted by the parser of your computer language and translated to binary calculations on the computer's processor. So as you may have guessed, each way of programming something will require different amounts of processing capacity. The big-o-notation classifies algorithms in 8 different categories of complexity:
|
Notation (Most Efficient > Least efficient) |
Description | Example | Order (N = 100) |
|---|---|---|---|
| O(1) | Time to complete is a constant | Adding an element to an array: regardless of how many elements are already in the array, the time to complete is always the same | 1 |
| O(log N) | The time to complete is logarithmic | A binary search: For every search, the amount of data is halved, which makes it very efficient | 6.64 |
| O(N) | Time to complete is in direct proportaion to the amount of data |
Linear search: Look in each element in the array Because the big-o-notation searches for the worst possible outcome, it will consider each and every element in the array, not only the first match-case! |
100 |
| O(N log N) | log-linear: The log of N, multiplied by N. The time to complete is quasi-linear |
A typical example is a quicksort of the elements in a collection. This number of comparisons equals log n! = log n + log(n-1) + log(n-2) + … + log(1) = n log n |
664 |
|
O(N2) (quadratic) |
Time to complete is the square to the amount of data. | A nested for-loop (2x)for (… in …){
|
10,000 |
| O(N3) | Time to complete is the amount of data to the power of three. |
A nested for-loop (3x)for (… in …){
|
100,000 |
|
O(2N) exponential |
The time to complete is exponential: If there are two solutions per element, the time to complete will be two to the power of N | Solving the travelling salesman problem with dynamic programming ( a method for solving a complex problem by breaking it down into a collection of simpler subproblems, solving each of those subproblems just once, and storing their solutions for later use) | 1,267,650,600,228,230,000,000,000,000,000 |
| O(N!) | Factorial: The time to complet becomes very big very quickly | Solving the travelling salesman problem with brute-force search (a very general problem-solving technique that consists of systematically enumerating all possible candidates for the solution and checking whether each candidate satisfies the problem's statement) | 93,326,215,443,944,200,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 |
Just to give you an idea… If the numbers in the table represent seconds, you would be able to:
- O(1): Count to one
- O(log N): Go from 0 to 60 mph in 6.64 seconds BMW 325 sport edition.
- O(N log N): Hard-cook an egg in a bit more than 11 minutes.
- O(N2): Watch the Martian in 2 hours and 46 minutes.
- O(N3): Watch the whole Harry Potter collection in 19h 47m (and have time to nap 8 hours).
- O(2N: The time between today and the creation of the Earth approx. 4.02 Bn years ago… A trillion times!
- O(N!): Euuhm… You get the picture right?
Fortunately, modern day personal computers often have multiple processors that are capable to perfom 2-3 million calculations per second (GHz), so we won't have to wait for eternity to load a page or run our programs.
Even if according to Moore's law, coputer powers doubles nearly every two years, it is advisable to think about efficiency of the algorithms you design… Especially if you intend to build successful applications that process data for many users!

--- layout: post title: XSL transformations tags: [] status: publish type: post published: true meta: {} ---
Mark Mandel put up a post and some code for a ColdFusion function that he wrote which uses the underlying Java architecture to do some XSL transformations using the Xalan engine and thus by passing the built-in xmltransform() function that doesn't support xsl:param and xsl:import. Might come in handy for future reference. [Massimo Foti put up something similar a while back.]


We provide a powerful charting API which can be build many chart types. At its simplest it can be used with a single line of code:
Plot("Series Name", value);
Plot("Series Name", value)
With this code a line-graph is added underneath your Strategy Equity chart and your requested values are displayed over time. To create a new chart (new tab) you should also specify the chart name in your request:
Plot("My Indicators", "EMA", ema);
Behind the scenes these methods create a new $[Chart] object and add it to your algorithm, and then add a new $[Series] object to that chart. A chart is made from many series. You can also initialize your charts manually to get more control over their look and feel.

I. Prerequisites
You must have Apache httpd-2.0.43
or newer (as of this writing, 2.0.47) already installed in order to build
and install mod_athena. If you have installed it in /usr/local/apache2
,
everything will just work.
II. Building
Get the latest mod_athena code.
tar xvfz athena-x.x
cd athena-x.x
adjust module/ath.h and module/ath_types.h if you want to tune the engine
make
--enable-athena (enables build of binary cmdline tool-- not working)
--with-apache2=(auto searches path if blank)
--with-doc-dir=(auto sets to /usr/local/www/data/mod_athena_doc if blank)
--with-cgi-bin=(auto sets to /usr/local/www/cgi-bin if blank)
--disable-client-id (Do not pass Netscape proxy style cookie client-id)
The X-Forwarded-For header already provides this data, and it also includes previous forwarding agents. The request originator is the first in the list, as long as upstream proxies honored this header. This header, "client-ip", mimics the old Netscape Proxy server's non-standard record of the last requester.--disable-debug (turn off debug messages and asserts)
You probably want to keep this. Very little overhead, and provides some useful info in the logs to tune shm/lock stuff on your platform.--disable-debugfunc (Turn off status/debug engine function
You probably don't need this. Useful for developers, it dumps configuration, farm, physical, and engine info formatted in a single response. Call as:your_athena_engine/status/debug?true
. It requires the?something_here
.
ATH_MAX_EMBED 16
Limits the number of engine requests embedded in a single GET. The engine allows an incoming GET to actually contain more than one engine request. This is the max. More on this topic in "Sending statistics." Also see directive "AthAllowDiverseMulti."
ATH_NAME_MAX 256
Max string length used for: farm names, physical hostnames, offline/down URLs. Kept low to cut down on shared memory size. Why use long names?
ATH_PHYS_HARDMAX 256
The maximum number of physicals allowed. Affects shared memory size (which is static). Tune higher if needed.
ATH_FARM_HARDMAX 32
The maximum number of farms allowed. Affects shared memory size (which is static). Tune higher if needed.
ATH_REQ_STATUS "/status" ATH_REQ_UPDATE "/update" ATH_REQ_BALANCE "/balance" ATH_REQ_MIRROR "/mirror" ATH_REF_HELLO "/hello" ATH_REQ_FARM "/farm" ATH_REQ_PHYS "/phys" ATH_REQ_ENGINE "/engine"
These are can all be change to shorter strings if you want to cut down on network traffic (come on, what's a couple bytes?).
III. Installation
Run make install
to install the module in the
modules directory of your apache2 installation. You should
see "libath.so" show up there. If your doc-dir is set properly, this will
also install docs. Likewise, if your cgi-bin was set correctly, this will
install the perl module and app.
The next three topics provide advice on configuring the engine.


BY EDWIN JAHIEL
STATE AND MAIN *** 1/2 . Written and directed by David Mamet. Photography, Oliver Stapleton. Editing, Barbar Tulliver. Production design, Gemma Jackson. Producer Sarah Green. Music, Theodore Shapiro. Cast: Alec Baldwin, Charles Durning , Clark Gregg, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Patti LuPone, William H. Macy, Sarah Jessica Parker, David Paymer, Rebecca Pidgeon, Julia Stiles. A Fine Line release. 102 minutes. R (language, allusions to sex)
The so-talented Rebecca Pidgeon is in real life Mrs. David Mamet. I saw her last in her husband's excellent remale of "The Winslow Boy." Here she plays Ann, a smalltown bookseller, the leader of the dramatic society, and the fiancee of obnoxious lawyer and local politico Doug MacKenzie (Clark Gregg). There's no true love between the two, but then really small towns have really small opportunities. Soon that man will be evinced by a quiet, lovely affair between Ann and visiting scriptwriter Joseph Turner White (Philip Seymour Hoffman.) The new relationship--like most of the other aspects of the movie--is a gem of originality, as is Ann's charming wisdom. Quietly, without pretentiousness or sententiousness, she speaks pearls. One of them goes: "You make your own fun. Otherwise, it's entertainment."
Triple threat playwright, screenwriter and director David Mamet must be having the time of his life by making his own fun here by satirizing out and out the making and makers of movies. Director Walt Price (William Macy) has been looking for locations to shoot the late-19th century opus "The Old Mill." He had found the ideal place and mill in New Hampshire, but circumstances obliged the movie crew to run away. The replacement is Waterford, Vermont, a spot as colorful in sights and denizens as any invented by Hollywood. (Even the rain looks like movie-rain.)
Walt is everything you didn't want to know about a name director and about films -- if you want to keep your illusions about the practitioners of the Seventh Art. Both in turns and simultaneously he is imperious, rude, demanding, cajoling, foul-mouthed, clever, imaginative, impossible, inventive, Napoleonic and Machiavellian. His declining star Bob Barrenger (Alec Baldwin) has a pronounced taste for young, school-age girls --which inevitably leads to troubles. First-time screenwriter Joe White is sweet, insecure and lost without his manual typewriter which disappeared between New Hampshire and Vermont. He finds in smart, tolerant Ann a rod, a staff, a muse and an object of his affections.
Claire, the projected film's female lead, has mega-problems, to which she adds a refusal to bare her breasts on-camera. This has something to do with her "purity," though an additional $800.000 would change her mind. The casting of Sarah Jessica Parker is inspired given her roles in TV's "Sex in the City."
Marty Rossen, the shyster lawyer who is the film's producer, is never short of arguments and ploys. He's the kind of beast who would do anything to get what he wants -- in fact he is like the classic definition of "chutzpah" where a man who killed his father and mother throws himself at the mercy of the Court "because I'm an orphan."
Add mid-teenager Carla (Julia Stiles, who must have been 18 when the movie was shot). She helps her dad with food services at the hotel where everybody is staying. In a clever twist, she seduces seducer Bob --and everything concerning the making of "The Old Mill"'s comes to a halt, while other developments stress venality, including lawyer MacKenzie's.
(By the way, the Old Mill of Waterford turns out to having been torched in 1960 by, probably, a destructive schoolboy.)
The film may be a series of catastrophes but they are all presented so juicily, amusingly, hilariously, winningly and wittily that they five the movie its several "raisons d'etre." Details are splendidly sketched out. Characters and situations are all different from one another while movie cliches are given freshness and originality. .
The cast and team of both "State and Main" and "The Old Mill" are rather small but do wonders thanks to Mamet's quick, sharp (or obtuse-on-purpose) dialogue. He handles language like a prestidigitator, directs with ease. Many of the stars have been in Mamet films: Macy, Paymer, Pidgeon, LuPone.
Non sequiturs or absurd logic enrich the text. Inventiveness reigns: at the hotel, the traffic in people, rooms, doors opening or closing is coordinated like a Georges Feydeau farce. In the hotel's cafe, two regular, chorus-like old-timers read Variety and talk technically of inflated movie profits. The whole production feels like a renaissance of older, classic screwball comedies --but not of slapstick pics.
Macy and Paymer repeat the old joke about naming people Associate Producer instead of paying them, yet the gag is always fresh. Paymer wants to ammortize expenses by bringing in product placement in the film, computer advertising ... in 1895, that is. Sure enough, by the end, some of the "inner" movie's shots shows an ad for a livery stable, and beneath it, one for Bazoomer computers.
Of course, we never find out what "The Old Mill" is about.
Do not stand up and leave the theater while end-credits are rolling. The humor continues until the lights go up.

NOTE -- This program is in the filetutorial/stdexcept.cpp
.
This following example program demonstrates the use of exceptions:
#include <string> // for string #include <stdexcept> // for exception, runtime_error, out_of_range #include <iostream> // for cout int main () { // First we'll incite and catch an exception from the C++ Standard // library class std::string by attempting to replace a substring // starting at a position beyond the end of the string object. try { std::string ().replace (100, 1, 1, 'c'); } catch (std::out_of_range &e) { // Print out the exception string, which in this implementation // includes the location and the name of the function that threw // the exception along with the reason for the exception. std::cout << "Caught an out_of_range exception: " << e.what () << '\n'; } catch (std::exception &e) { std::cout << "Caught an exception of an unexpected type: " << e.what () << '\n'; } catch (...) { std::cout << "Caught an unknown exception\n"; } // Throw another exception. try { throw std::runtime_error ("a runtime error"); } catch (std::runtime_error &e) { std::cout << "Caught a runtime_error exception: " << e.what () << '\n'; } catch (std::exception &e) { std::cout << "Caught an exception of an unexpected type: " << e.what () << '\n'; } catch (...) { std::cout << "Caught an unknown exception\n"; } return 0; }
The exact output of the program is specific to the compiler used to compile it and to the location of the library headers but may look something like this:
Caught an out_of_range exception: /usr/local/stdcxx/include/string.cc:422: std::string& std::string::replace(size_type, size_type, size_type, char_type): argument value 100 out of range [0, 0) Caught a runtime_error exception: a runtime error


Kitchen bin fire leaves Cornwood home damaged
Firefighters called late Saturday night to fire at Cornwood house
by Carl EveFirefighters from Ivybridge, Plympton and Crownhill were called to tackle a blaze at a kitchen fire at a property in Cornwood late last night.
The call came in shortly before 10.30pm after fire alarms sounded and firefighters raced to the property in Fore Street to find smoke issuing from a chimney and windows.
 Firefighters, using two breathing apparatus, tackled the blaze with one hose reel jet and one safety jet.
Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue Service stated that the fire started within a refuse bin inside the kitchen.

The cause of the fire was believed to be accidental.


Adversarial Examples
I do a lot of work in the area of adversarial machine learning, which aims to characterize a machine learning model’s predictions for challenging unseen inputs (not to be confused with generative adversarial networks (GANs)). Despite having worked in this area for some time, I still struggle with the basic definition of an adversarial example, as proposed by OpenAI:
Adversarial examples are inputs to machine learning models that an attacker has intentionally designed to cause the model to make a mistake; they’re like optical illusions for machines.
Aside from being informal, my problem with this definition is that it tends to absolve designers of their responsibility to a reasonable standard of care, it doesn’t own the problem. By focusing on the role of the attacker, it makes it seem as though the designer has done their absolute best, and that such unpredictable behaviour at test time is simply beyond one’s control. After all, I am not aware of any fix to make humans immune to optical illusions.
At least this definition is more general than arbitrary constraints that invoke an norm directly on the inputs like , but I believe this fundamental emphasis on security, instead of say, stability or fault tolerance, is limiting. The unfortunate reality is that state-of-the-art deep neural nets for computer vision are overwhelmingly unstable, i.e., a small change in the bounded input may induce a large change in the output. As designers of useful systems, we would like to avoid instability in general, not only in security.
Optical illusions simply do not arise that often in nature, and when they do, humans are generally aware that their visual system is being manipulated, and proceed with caution. One could argue that adversarial examples are similarly rare, given that they might violate the independent and identically distributed (i.i.d) data assumption fundamental to machine learning. Recently, this latter view has been taken for granted, but a dependence between an example and the model’s parameters does not necessarily imply that the example is from a different distribution, we usually don’t know the distribution from which our inputs are drawn, which is why we’re using machine learning. The tendency to question the i.i.d. assumption, a fundamental assumption made by a whole community, rather than assuming user error, demonstrates how the aforementioned security-centric definition can be wielded to absolve the designer of responsibility.
I don’t have a significantly better definition of an adversarial example, recent work is concerned with the design of better methodology for evaluating robustness that would render such definitions somewhat unnecessary. However, I would shorten the previous one by removing the necessary role of an attacker, and stipulate that we’re really concerned with confident mistakes (where a suitable confidence threshold is application specific). Something like:
Adversarial examples are bounded inputs to machine learning models for which the prediction differs with high-confidence from that of an oracle.
I continue to use adversarial examples in relation to the problem of maximizing out-of-sample performance, e.g., max-margin generalization, and ensuring model confidence is calibrated for all legitimate inputs. Naturally, following the gradient is one of the quickest ways to test these things, but I consider myself an ally not an adversary; a designer of stable systems, not defense mechanisms.
