, is rich and varied, from wood-carving to beliefs such as shark-worshipping. Many islanders still live in the traditional way.The political situation in the Solomon Islands is now more stable, but visitors should still obtain the latest travel advice from their relevant government agencies. It is still not advisable to travel to rural parts of Guadalcanal, however islands that have been avoided by cruisers in recent years, in particular those in Malaita Province, are keen to see boats returning and have worked hard on improving security for visiting cruisers.
Whilst the majority of Solomon Island villagers are helpful and friendly, there have been recent reports of burglaries from boats and aggressive boardings in and around Tulaghi and in Honiara and Gizo.
Advice from cruisers is to anchor outside villages where you are visible, do not leave anything lying loose on deck and ensure you lock all hatches at night time. Ask the chief of the village if you will be safe and ask him to please look out for your safety. Most villagers welcome yachts and appreciate your visit and will go out of their way to help you.
Useful reports on security by cruisers who have been to the Solomons:
SY Adina have a list of all the anchorages they visited and advice on security from when they visited in 2015. They did a lot of research in planning their route and did not encounter any problems. Details available at www.yachtadina.co.uk/sailingnotes

The Solomons experience high temperatures and January to March are the months of heaviest rainfall. April to November is the season of the SE trades, while the rest of the year is the NW monsoon, which is also the cyclone season. Long periods of calm weather are not uncommon among the islands.
The Western Province is reputed to be safe from cyclones.

This topic describes the security level of the Java Client, policy files, permissions, and security dialogs. These security features provide users with some control over what Java and JavaFX applications are allowed to run.
This topic contains the following sections:
Using the Java Control Panel or installation options, the user can control, the level of security that is used when running Java and JavaFX applications that are embedded in a web page or launched from a web page, collectively referred to as Rich Internet Applications or RIAs. The user can select from three levels of security, including disabled, where no RIAs are allowed to run in the browser. Setting the security level does not affect desktop (also called stand-alone) applications.
Before the browser plug-in software attempts to run a RIA, it verifies that the JRE version is at or above the security baseline for that family and that the age of the JRE is recent. If the JRE is determined to be below the security baseline, or if unable to verify the baseline and the current date is past the JRE Expiration Date, additional security warnings are displayed, or in some cases, the RIA is blocked. If the RIA is not automatically blocked, the user has the option to block the RIA, to continue running the RIA, or to go to java.com
to download the latest release. The JRE expiration date can be found in the release notes for JDK Update releases starting with JDK 7u21.
The JRE relies on periodic checks with an Oracle Server to determine if the JRE is still considered up-to-date with all of the available security fixes (above the security baseline). From the 7u10 release onwards, all JREs contain a hard-coded expiration date. The expiration date is calculated to end after the scheduled release of the next Critical Patch Update.
JREs that are unable to contact Oracle Servers for an extended period of time now offer additional protection after a reasonable period and do not continue to behave as if they were up-to-date with regard to security fixes.
To test what happens when the JRE falls below the security baseline or expires, see Section <IP_ADDRESS>, "Testing a JRE Below the Security Baseline" and Section <IP_ADDRESS>, "Testing an Expired JRE".
To see how applications behave when the JRE falls below the Security Baseline, follow these steps:
Install the JRE that you want to test.
Remove the following files, if they exist:
<user-deployment-home>/deployment.properties
<user-deployment-home>/security/baseline.versions
<user-deployment-home>/security/update.timestamp
See Section 21.1, "Deployment Configuration File (deployment.properties)
" for the location of the deployment.properties
file on each supported platform.
From the command line, run the following command:
javaws -SSVBaselineUpdate
The <user-deployment-home>/security/baseline.versions
file is downloaded.
Edit the <user-deployment-home>/security/baseline.versions
file.
Set the version number of the JRE for the JRE family that you are testing to a value greater than the version that you are testing. For example, if you are testing JRE version 8u5, set the version in the file to 1.8.0_99
. The JRE periodically updates this file, so make the file read-only to prevent your changes from being overwritten.
Run any RIA.
The Java Update Needed prompt is shown. Click Later to continue running the application. See Why do I see the Java Update Needed messages? on java.com for information on this prompt.
When you are done testing, repeat Step 2 and Step 3 to restore the correct version of the files.
To see how applications behave after the JRE has expired, follow these steps:
Install the JRE that you want to test.
Remove the following files, if they exist:
<user-deployment-home>/deployment.properties
<user-deployment-home>/security/baseline.versions
See Section 21.1, "Deployment Configuration File (deployment.properties)
" for the location of the deployment.properties
file on each supported platform.
Set the system to a future date beyond the expiration date of the JRE. Get the expiration date from the Release Notes for the release that you are testing.
Run any RIA.
The Java Update Needed prompt is shown. Click Later to continue running the application. See Why do I see the Java Update Needed messages? on java.com for information on this prompt.
If you prefer to completely disable access to Java through the browser, de-select the Enable Java content in the browser option in the Java Control Panel under the Security tab. See Section 20.4, "Security" for information.
If you do not need to run Java through a browser, consider installing the Server JRE, which does not contain the Java Plug-In. See Server JRE (Java SE Runtime Environment) 7 Downloads for information.
Note: These settings affect all browsers that use Oracle's Java browser plug-in. They do not affect stand-alone applications.
The Security tab of the Java Control Panel contains a Security Level setting that controls the restrictions placed on any RIA that is run from the web. The user can select a level of High or Very High. This setting determines if a RIA is allowed to run and if so, the warnings you must accept before the RIA is started. The warnings contain information about the signing status of the RIA, the location of the RIA, and whether the RIA is requesting enhanced permissions to run outside the security sandbox.
At the Very High setting, only RIAs that are signed with a valid certificate that is located in the Signer CA keystore, and include the Permissions attribute in the manifest for the main JAR file are allowed to run with security prompts. At the High setting, RIAs that are signed with a valid certificate that is located in the Signer CA keystore, and include the Permissions attribute in the manifest for the main JAR file are allowed to run with security prompts. Applications are also allowed to run with security prompts when the revocation status of the certificate cannot be checked. For more information on security levels, see Section 20.4, "Security."
The default security level is High.
The ability to run applications is also affected by the settings described in Section 23.1.5, "Security Options for a Secure Execution Environment."
The following options are available in the Advanced tab of the Java Control Panel to set the behavior when a RIA is started:
Allow user to grant permissions to signed content
Show sandbox warning banner
Allow user to accept JNLP security requests
Don't prompt for client certificate selection when no certificates or only one exists
Warn if site certificate does not match hostname
Show site certificate even if it is valid
See Section 20.5, "Advanced" for more information on advanced options.
|
Note: These options are available only on Microsoft Windows. |
Starting in the JDK 7u10 release, arguments for command line installation are available for setting the security level for Java in the browser. Admin privileges are required to install the JRE.
On installation, the WEB_JAVA
argument has the following effect:
WEB_JAVA
=1 enables Java in the browser
WEB_JAVA
=0 disables Java in the browser
On installation, the WEB_JAVA_SECURITY_LEVEL
argument has the following effect:
WEB_JAVA_SECURITY_LEVEL
=VH sets the security level to very high
WEB_JAVA_SECURITY_LEVEL
=H sets the security level to high
After installation of the JRE, you can check the Java Control Panel to verify that the security level settings are correct.
This information also applies to RIAs that contain calls between privileged code and sandbox code. For more information, see Chapter 27, "Mixing Privileged Code and Sandbox Code."
RIAs are by default run in a secure sandbox that defines the set of permissions that code in an untrusted application is granted.
The standard Java policy files can be used to enhance the permissions granted to untrusted applications. In addition to $JRE_HOME/lib/security/java.policy
(used by all java programs), applications and applets loaded by Java Web Start and Java Plug-in load an additional policy file, whose location can be configured by the deployment configuration property: deployment.system.security.policy
.
The default sandbox, combined with the permissions granted by these policy files, if they exist, determine the permissions granted to untrusted code.
One other policy file, whose location is determined by the deployment configuration property deployment.security.trusted.policy
, can be used to restrict the permissions granted to trusted code. When this property is not set, which is the default, trusted code will be granted the AllPermission
permission. When this property is set, trusted code will be granted only the permissions granted to untrusted code, plus any other permissions granted by the policy file pointed to by this property.
The deployment configuration also has several properties that determine how and if code can be trusted. Normally, any signed JAR file in Java Plug-in, and any set of signed JAR files in Java Web Start that are listed in a JNLP file requesting the AllPermission
permission, will be granted trust by the user after the certificate chains have been verified and shown to the user in a security dialog.
The deployment configuration property deployment.user.security.trusted.certs
points to a certificate store that contains the certificates already accepted by the user.
The deployment configuration property deployment.system.security.trusted.certs
can be configured to point to a certificate store of certificates pre-accepted by the system administrator.
If a JAR file (in Java Plug-in) or set of JAR files in a JNLP file requesting the AllPermission
permission (in Java Web Start) is signed by a certificate that is in one of these stores, it will be trusted.
The deployment configuration property deployment.security.askgrantdialog.show
can control if the user is permitted to grant trust to new code signed with new certificates.
Java Plug-in and Java Web Start support browser keystore in Internet Explorer and Firefox. Certificates and keys in browser keystores are used for the following purposes:
Signature signing verification
HTTPS server authentication
HTTPS client authentication
If the certificates and keys are on the smart cards, they are also recognized by Java Plug-in and Java Web Start if exposed in the browser keystore.
By default, browser keystore support is enabled. Users can configure the support through the Advanced tab in the Java Control Panel. See Section 20.5, "Advanced" for information.
On Windows, browser keystore is supported through Internet Explorer. Certificates and keys in Internet Explorer are automatically recognized by Java Plug-in and Java Web Start when Java and JavaFX applications are deployed on Windows.
This feature is supported only with Internet Explorer 5.0 or higher.
On Linux and Solaris, browser keystore is supported through Mozilla. Certificates and keys in Mozilla are recognized by Java Plug-in and Java Web Start when Java and JavaFX applications are deployed on Linux and Solaris.
Support for Mozilla keystore requires a Mozilla library called JSS (Network Security Services for Java). By default, JSS is a separate component that does not ship with Mozilla -- it is the responsibility of the deployer to install JSS with Mozilla. Java Plug-in and Java Web Start enable the Mozilla keystore support after JSS is deployed.
This feature is supported only with Mozilla 1.4 or higher and JSS 3.2 or higher, assuming both Mozilla and JSS are compiled using the same compiler on the same platform.
To install on Windows, follow these steps:
Create jss
directory under Mozilla's installed directory.
Copy JSS JAR file into the jss directory.
Copy JSS native library DLL into Mozilla's installed directory.
To install on Solaris or Linux, follow these steps:
Create jss
directory under Mozilla's installed directory.
Copy JSS JAR file into the jss directory.
Copy JSS native library .so into Mozilla's installed directory.
Set environment variable MOZILLA_HOME to Mozilla's installed directory in Mozilla's launch script.
Change environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include Mozilla's installed directory in Mozilla's launch script.
The Root Certificate Authority certificate stores are the union of the certificate stores in the files pointed to by the properties: deployment.user.security.cacerts
and deployment.system.security.cacerts
. By default deployment.system.security.cacerts
points to the cacerts
file in the jre/lib/security
directory. deployment.user.security.cacerts
points to a file that contains any additional cacerts
imported into it using the Certificates dialog in the Security tab of the Java Control Panel.
If the deployment.security.askgrantdialog.show
property allows it, and the code is signed with certificate chains that can be properly validated, the users are then prompted to grant trust to the code. The following sections describe the security dialogs.
Beginning with the 7u21 release, users are notified when a RIA is launched with a security prompt similar to the following screen shot.
Figure 23-1 Security Dialog for a Trusted Application
Depending on the RIA, the security prompt shows the following information:
Name of the RIA, or notification that the application is unsigned.
The name that is shown is the value of the Application-Name
attribute in the JAR file manifest. If the Application-Name
attribute is not present, the value for the Main-Class
attribute is used. If neither attribute is present in the manifest, no title is shown in the security prompts. Titles are not shown for unsigned RIAs. See Section 26.3, "Application-Name Attribute" for information.
Warning when an out-of-date JRE is being used.
For enterprises that manage the update process of user's systems, the deployment property deployment.expiration.check.enabled
can be set to suppress the warnings for out-of-date JREs. See Chapter 21, "Deployment Configuration File and Properties" for information.
Information about the publisher.
If the application is self-signed or signed by an unknown authority, the publisher is shown as UNKNOWN.
Warnings about the certificate.
If the certificate is expired, revoked, or the server that tracks which certificates were revoked cannot be accessed, the prompt shows a warning. A warning is also shown if the certificate is not valid until a future date.
Location from which the application is accessed.
The value is either a URL for applications that are accessed from a website, or a directory for applications that are accessed from a local drive.
Level of access required by the application.
Limited access restricts the application to the security sandbox, unrestricted access provides the application with access to resources on the user's system.
Warning about missing JAR file manifest attributes.
JAR file manifest attributes are available to provide additional protection for an application. The warning indicates that the manifest is missing a recommended attribute. See Chapter 26, "JAR File Manifest Attributes for Security" for information.
For unsigned or self-signed applications, a checkbox that the user must select before the Run button is enabled.
Option to not show the prompt again.
For signed RIAs, future prompts for this RIA and RIAs from the same location that are signed with the same certificate can be turned off. If the RIA is a sandbox application, then the prompt is turned off only for other sandbox applications that are signed with the same certificate. When shown, click Show Options to access the option to turn off the prompt.
Prompts that were previously hidden can be restored through a button on the Security tab of the Java Control Panel. See Section 20.4.4, "Restore Security Prompts" for information.
Buttons to Run the RIA, Cancel the RIA, and when a JRE is out of date, to Update to the latest JRE.
For a description and examples of the security prompts, see "What should I do when I see a security prompt from Java?" on java.com.
The best experience for the user is when the RIA is restricted to the security sandbox and is signed with a current certificate from a trusted certificate authority. Clicking Run is all that is needed from the user to run the RIA.
As conditions become less secure, warning messages become stronger, and in some cases, more action is needed by the user, as described for the following situations:
If the RIA is signed with a certificate from a trusted certificate authority, but requires unrestricted access to the user's system, the prompt warns the users about the risk of running the RIA. Clicking Run starts the RIA.
If the RIA is signed with a certificate and the revocation status of the certificate cannot be checked, the prompt provides stronger warnings about the risk of running the RIA. The user must select the option to accept the risk, which enables the Run button, then click Run to run the RIA.
Additional warnings are shown in some cases, such as when sandbox code attempts to access privileged code, or a RIA attempts to access resources that it does not have permission to access. These warnings require additional responses from the user.
For guidelines on deploying your RIA, see Deployment Best Practices in the Java Tutorial. For information on how the deployment of RIAs is handled, see Chapter 24, "Rich Internet Application Deployment Process.".
The Java Control Panel can be used to set options that are related to the security prompts. The Security tab provides an option to block Java content from running in a browser. The Security Level setting determines if the applet is automatically blocked and what level of prompting the user receives if the RIA is not blocked. See Section 20.4, "Security" for more information.
The Advanced tab provides options for managing RIAs:
Secure Execution Environment options provide control for allowing or prohibiting users from granting privileges. If the user is not allowed to grant privileges, the security prompt is not shown and the app or features of the app are blocked.
Mixed code security verification options provide control for showing or hiding prompts that warn of mixed code. If the prompts are hidden, some features might be blocked without any notice to the user.
See Section 20.5, "Advanced" for more information.
One final setting can be used to customize the user experience in Java Web Start. By default the sandbox does not include the AWTPermission
showWindowWithoutWarningBanner
. Without this permission, all top-level windows will contain the awt banner "Java Application Window" or "Java Applet Window". The deployment configuration property deployment.security.sandbox.awtwarningwindow
can be used to add this permission to untrusted code.
For a detailed discussion of properties, see Chapter 21, "Deployment Configuration File and Properties."
For details about security in the Java Control Panel, see Section 20.4, "Security."


FROM THE DESK OF: MRS AJAHA AHMED AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK (ADB) BILL AND EXCHANGE DEPARTMENT, OFFSHORE OFFICE,OUAGADOUGOU, BURKINA-FASO. Dear Friend, I am the Bill and Exchange(assistant) Manager of the Africa development Bank, In my department I discovered an abandoned sum of USD$11.300.000 (ELEVEN MILLION THREE HUNDERS U.S.A DOLLARS). In an account that belongs to one of our foreign customer who died along with his wife and two children in July 2000 in a plane crash. Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next of kin to come over and claim his money because we cannot release it unless somebody applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased, as indicated in our banking guidelines but unfortunately we learnt that all his supposed next of kin or relation died alongside with him in the plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claim. You can also confirm this in the website as follow: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/859479.stm It is therefore upon this discovery that I in my department now decided to make this business proposals to you and release the money to you as next of kin or relation to the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for it and we don't want this money to go into the bank treasury as unclaimed fund. The banking law and guidelines here stipulates that if such money remains unclaimed after five years, the money will be transferred into the bank treasury as unclaimed fund. The request of foreigner in this transaction is necessary because our late customer was a foreigner and a Burkinabe cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner. We agree that 27% of this money will be for you as foreigner partner, in respect to the provision of a foreign account,3% will be set aside for expenses incurred during the business and 70% would be for me and my colleague, after which we shall visit your country for disbursement according to the percentages indicated. Therefore to enable the immediate transfer of this fund to you as arranged, you must apply first to the bank, and send your account number, your private telephone and fax number for easy and effective communication and location where the money will be remitted. Upon receipt of your reply, I will send to you by fax or e-mail the text of the application which you shall retype and fax to our foreign remittance maneger,for easy execution of the transaction. I will not fail to bring to your notice that this transaction is 100% hitch-free on both side. As all required arrangement have been made for the transfer. You should contact me immediately as soon as you receive this letter. Trusting to receive your urgent reply through my alternative Email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Best regards. MRS AJAHA AHMED BILL AND EXCHANGE (ASSIST.)MANAGER, AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK ANNEXE, OUAGADOUGOU BURKINA-FASO. _________________________________________________________________ Testez Windows Live Mail Beta ! http://www.ideas.live.com/

My friend, whom I'll refer to as Bun Bun, suggested I smoke some Salvia. He said it was so 'fucked up' that he could only do it once a week. This coming from a human being that will consume any substance any time as long as it stood a slight chance of providing a buzz. I snickered with disbelief and told him I'd smoke it every day.
So after work around 12:30 AM I drove to his house and sat on his front porch. He packed a bowl and I smoked it. Two solid hits. Nothing. Not even a head change. He claimed all it takes is one good hit to fry. He took a couple tokes, and nothing.  I'm not impressed with this garbage at all,' I said to him. He suggested I take bigger, heavier tokes and hold it down longer. I grabbed the mini-bong, packed it with more Salvia and flicked my light. 'The gloves are off this round, Bun Bun,' I said as I whipped the flame over bowl.
Immediately, I felt I had gone over the line. I blew snot from my right nostril and began coughing. From here, my memory from the incident is vague and jumbled and chronologically clusterfucked. I remember laughing uncontrollably, falling to my side, drooling down my face and feeling as if I was spinning very fast on a sideways cosmic ferris wheel.  I kept laughing harder and harder, and for a tiny flash of time felt as if I was doomed to laugh forever, which brought on a vision of my parents standing over me, watching their son locked in some hysterical fit of infinte drug laughs.
The ferris wheel still turned. Now the scene began to come together. The bright lights of the carnival, the people waiting in line for their turn, my laughing, the red wood and Old West golden swirl decorations of the ferris wheel cars, the dirt ground, something wet on my arm and face- I heard Bun Bun's voice, or at least I heard him laughing at me, which I used as a rope ladder back to some sort of control.
Finally, I told myself that if I could stand, I'd be in control. I stood. I was in control.
Bun Bun seemed to find the entire ordeal very funny. He told me I was gone for about five minutes, though it seemed to last about thirty (long, psychedelic) seconds.  I can't remember staring at him.
Overall, the feeling is indescribable. I completely lost control, time perception and briefly, my mind. All in all, a solid B+ on the fun scale, an A+ on intrigue. Gonna try it again tomorrow under more physically comfortable conditions (indoors, couch, music).

ASTRO's Moonbin to take hiatus due to health issues
by germainejASTRO's Moonbin will be taking a hiatus due to health issues.
On November 12, ASTRO's label Fantagio Music announced Moonbin would be taking a temporary break because of his health. The label announced, "While preparing for their comeback album, Moonbin visited the hospital for a comprehensive exam. Due to the medical staff's diagnosis, it was decided he will temporarily suspend his activities and concentrate on getting sufficient rest and treatment."
Fantagio also stated ASTRO will be promoting as 5 members until Moonbin recovers.
In related news, ASTRO are scheduled to make a comeback with their sixth mini album 'Blue Flame' on November 20. Stay tuned for updates on Moonbin's health.


The list command (l) displays the contents of the pattern space, showing non-printing characters as two-digit ASCII codes. It is similar in function to the list (:l) command in vi. You can use this command to detect "invisible" characters in the input.[6]
[6] GNU sed displays certain characters, such as carriage return, using the ANSI C escape sequences, instead of straight octal. Presumably, this is easier to comprehend for those who are familiar with C (or awk, as we'll see later in the book).
$cat test/spchar
Here is a string of special characters: ^A ^B ^M ^G
$sed -n -e "l" test/spchar
Here is a string of special characters: \01 \02 \15 \07
$# test with GNU sed too
$gsed -n -e "l" test/spchar
Here is a string of special characters: \01 \02 \r \a
Because the list command causes immediate output, we suppress the default output or we would get duplicate copies of the lines.
You cannot match a character by ASCII value (nor can you match octal values) in sed.[7] Instead, you have to find a key combination in vi to produce it. Use CTRL-V to quote the character. For instance, you can match an ESC character (^[). Look at the following script:
[7] You can do this in awk, however.
# list line and replace ^[ with "Escape" l s/^[/Escape/
Here's a one-line test file:
The Great ^[ is a movie starring Steve McQueen.
Running the script produces the following output:
The Great \33 is a movie starring Steve McQueen. The Great Escape is a movie starring Steve McQueen.
GNU sed produces this:
The Great \1b is a movie starring Steve McQueen. The Great Escape is a movie starring Steve McQueen.
The ^[ character was made in vi by entering CTRL-V, then pressing the ESC key.
The UNIX formatter nroff produces output for line printers and CRT displays. To achieve such special effects as bolding, it outputs the character followed by a backspace and then outputs the same character again. A sample of it viewed with a text editor might look like:
N^HN^HN^HNA^HA^HA^HAM^HM^HM^HME^HE^HE^HE
which bolds the word "NAME." There are three overstrikes for each character output. Similarly, underlining is achieved by outputting an underscore, a backspace and then the character to be underlined. The following example is the word "file" surrounded by a sequence for underscoring it.
_^Hf_^Hi_^Hl_^He
It might be necessary at times to strip these printing "special-effects"; perhaps if you are given this type of output as a source file. The following line removes the sequences for emboldening and underscoring:
s/.^H//g
It removes any character preceding the backspace along with the backspace itself. In the case of underlining, "." matches the underscore; for emboldening, it matches the overstrike character. Because it is applied repeatedly, multiple occurrences of the overstrike character are removed, leaving a single character for each sequence. Note that ^H is entered in vi by pressing CTRL-V followed by CTRL-H.
A sample application is "de-formatting" an nroff-produced man page found on an older System V UNIX system.[8] If you should want to access the formatted pages with a text editor, you'd want to get a clean version. (In many ways, this is a similar problem to one we solved in converting a word processing file in the previous chapter.) A formatted man page captured in a file looks like this:
[8] For a while, many System V UNIX vendors only provided preformatted manpages. This allowed the man command to show information quickly, instead of having to format it, but the lack of troff source to the manpages made it difficult to fix documentation errors. Fortunately, most vendors of modern UNIX systems supply source for their manuals.
^[9 who(1) who(1) ^[9 N^HN^HN^HNA^HA^HA^HAM^HM^HM^HME^HE^HE^HE who - who is on the system? S^HS^HS^HSY^HY^HY^HYN^HN^HN^HNO^HO^HO^HOP^HP^HP^HPS^HS^HS^HSI^HI who [-a] [-b] [-d] [-H] [-l] [-p] [-q] [-r] [-s] [-t] [-T] [-u] [_^Hf_^Hi_^Hl_^He] who am i who am I D^HD^HD^HDE^HE^HE^HES^HS^HS^HSC^HC^HC^HCR^HR^HR^HRI^HI^HI^HIP^HP who can list the user's name, terminal line, login time, elapsed time since activity occurred on the line, and the ...
In addition to stripping out the bolding and underlining sequences, there are strange escape sequences that produce form feeds or various other printer functions. You can see the sequence "^[9" at the top of the formatted manpage. This escape sequence can simply be removed:
s/^[9//g
Once again, the ESC character is entered in vi by typing CTRL-V followed by pressing the ESC key. The number 9 is literal. There are also what look to be leading spaces that supply the left margin and indentation. On further examination, it turns out that leading spaces precede the heading such as "NAME" but a single tab precedes each line of text. Also, there are tabs that unexpectedly appear in the text, which have to do with how nroff optimizes for display on a CRT screen.
To eliminate the left margin and the unwanted tabs, we add two commands to our previous two:
# sedman -- deformat nroff-formatted manpage s/.^H//g s/^[9//g s/^[]*//g s// /g
The third command looks for any number of tabs or spaces at the beginning of a line. (A tab is represented by "" and a space by "".) The last command looks for a tab and replaces it with a single space. Running this script on our sample man page output produces a file that looks like this:
who(1) who(1) NAME who - who is on the system? SYNOPSIS who [-a] [-b] [-d] [-H] [-l] [-p] [-q] [-r] [-s] [-t] [-T] [-u] [file] who am i who am I DESCRIPTION who can list the user's name, terminal line, login time, elapsed time since activity occurred on the line, and the ...
This script does not eliminate the unnecessary blank lines caused by paging. We will look at how to do that in the next chapter, as it requires a multiline operation.

acrylic strip as a roundel liner. I decided cardstock paper would
work better.
As an experiment, I tried filling the roundel gap with
expanding foam, then trimming it back to fit the roundel.
Eventually, I decided that approach was too much work and would be
too expensive.

The roundel closet doors are constructed from 30" primed
hollow core doors. The doors turned out to be not as hollow as I
expected, containing glued-in cardboard spacers. I used the router
to cut 18" circles from the front of the doors only, leaving the
back panel intact. Then I cut strips from cardstock paper for the
roundel lining. The cardstock wasn't long enough, so I had to
splice two pieces together.

The potential of NFTs seems immense.
You may have heard of CryptoKitties from 2017. They gave non-fungible tokens a first jumpstart. 2020 has seen NFTS take off even more...you've likely heard of Garbage Pale Kids. They're now NFTs. You've likely heard of POGS. They are are now KOGS, as NFTs. And, there's more. The future shows much, much greater things for NFTs.

I heard that CO needed more people helping, that the election took the commission out of the public eye. I would like to help contribute something to the state.
As a white male, I know my demographic is oversaturated in the political sphere. I would take this as an opportunity to support and follow the lead of BIPOC in our community. As a historian, I recognize the significance of redrawing districts to be fair and representative and I am aware of the historical inequalities within the current system.
I studied American history, which honed my analytical skills. I gather information from various sources, inquire as to the biases of the sources to get a better, three dimensional understanding of what is occurring.

Assume the Position
A dive into CSS positioning
June 22, 2015
Hey everyone! Welcome to week 2 of technical blog posts. This week at Dev Bootcamp we dove into HTML and CSS. HTML makes up the content of your site while CSS is where everything is stylized. Without CSS you would have a very minimal website lacking colors, fonts, images, etc. I found that adding design elements to a website through CSS to be a fun endeavor but also extremely frustrating at times. I found it very easy to go down a rabbit hole with my designs due to the trial and error nature of CSS. One thing I struggled with up front is positioning elements on a page.  Well they say the best way to learn is to teach so that's exactly what I intend to do with this post. After some extensive research on the subject and continued trial and error with my website I now feel fully confident in my abilities to explain the beauty of CSS positioning. Let's dive in shall we...
In simplest terms CSS positioning properties are what allow you to position an element on a page. There are four different positioning properties: static positioning, fixed position, relative positioning, and absolute positioning.
Static Positioning
This is the default position for all HTML elements. When an element is in the static position it simply means that it is not affected by the top, left, bottom, and right properties. An element that is static is said to not be positioned.
Example Code:
.static {
position: static;
}
*Position would remain unchanged*
Relative Positioning
When an element is assigned a relative position it means the element's position is relative to that of its' normal position. Therefore, setting the top, left, bottom, and right properties will allow the element to move away from its' normal position
Example Code:
h2 {
position: relative;
top: 50px;
}
*Element would be positioned 50px from the top of its' normal position*
Fixed Position
When an element is in the fixed position it means it will not move even if the window is scrolled. This useful for an element such as a footer that you want to stay at the bottom of a page.Since the fixed element remains in one place it does not affect other elements on the page.
.
Example Code:
h2 {
position: fixed;
left: 100px;
top: 150px;
}
*Element will be positioned 100px from the left and 150 px from the top of the window. It will remain in this position even as the window is scrolled.*
Absolute Positioning
This position is a little tricky. It acts much like a fixed position element but instead of being positioned in relation to the window, it is positioned in relation to its' nearest parent element. If there are no parent elements the absolute positioned element will move along as the page is scrolled.
Example Code:
h2 {
position: absolute;
top: 5px;
right: 100px;
}
*Element will be positioned 100px from the right and 5 px from the top of its' parent element.*
I hope this post has helped you to get a better handle on CSS positioning. A good way to practice what you have learned is to manipulate the CSS of a webpage using chrome devtools. You can access this by opening a webpage in chrome, then navigating to "View"-->"Developer"-->"Developer Tools".

I have no experience coding and little experience with CRMs, so I'm truly excited to just learn and grow, to see what I enjoy and to challenge myself. I'm also excited to learn more about the tech. world and how movements have been shaped by technology, as well as what the future will look like with new, evolving and emerging forms of tech. I hope that by the end of this fellowship I will have worked on projects that will bring about tangible and felt change to APEN, specifically to our database management systems and infrastructure. I want APEN to at least adopt one system or protocol that helps us be more efficient and save time.


My parents frequently visit Europe. Over the last few years, I had asked them to bring me back a bottle of Absinthe.  When Thanksgiving rolled around I met with my family and received the Absinthe. The bottle was purchased in Portugal, and had a somewhat generic look to it (compared to the elaborate labels I have seen online).
The brand was 'Albertson'. The liquor had a nice green color to it and smelled like fennel and black licorice. A few days after the Thanksgiving festivities, I could wait no longer to try the Absinthe. I have previously experimented with a wormwood extract added to vodka, with somewhat disappointing results (see my separate entry in the wormwood vault for more details). This did not effect my mood as I poured my first taste of the real thing. It was late in the evening, around 11 PM. I was staying at my parent's house. They had long since went to bed. I retired to the furthest room away from their bedroom to watch T.V. and drink
I did not prepare the drink in the traditional manner using sugar and water. I simply poured the Absinthe over ice and added a small amount of water to make it more drinkable (it was 140 proof). I LOVED the taste!!! Though very strong due to the high alcohol content, I found the flavor to be very enticing. I was very pleasantly surprised, as I had expected the bitter taste of wormwood. Instead, I found it to taste just as it smelled...like licorice!
I did not notice any significant effects after the first glass, except for a pleasant alcohol buzz. After the second glass, I began to notice some different effects. There was a slight, pleasant ringing in my ears and I began to feel unusually 'happy'. I got online and chatted with some friends, having many laughs along the way. My mood was very social, and I wished there were friends present to share this wonderful liquor with. I was FULLY enjoying my experience!
After my third drink, I really noticed the effects of Absinthe. Everything in the room looked 'different' somehow...not like full blown hallucinations, but sort of like the way marijuana makes things look 'different'. There was a noticable 'rushing' quality to everything, as if time had sped up somehow. Everything looked like it had 'static' on it...it is very difficult to explain, but I am convinced that Absinthe is slightly hallucinogenic. By this time, it was probably about 2 AM, so I decided this was enough for one evening.
I woke up the next day with a bit of a hangover, but it was worth it. I can't wait to drink more! I enjoyed it so much that I purchased a distillation kit so that I can make my own. I would give Absinthe a huge thumbs up...if you can find it, give it a try! Just don't get addicted...I can see how this could be a problem.

| class: | quantipy.Rim(name, lists=[], max_iterations=1000, convcrit=0.01, cap=0, dropna=True, impute_method="mean", weight_column_name=None, total=0) |
|---|---|
| method: | set_targets(targets, group_name=None) |
| method: | add_group(name=None, filter=None, targets=None) |
To weight a case data file, Quantipy collects the weight information in an instance of a Rim scheme. The name corresponds to the algorithm used in the data weighting process which is discussed in the seminal paper by Deming/ Fredrick (1940) [1] (therein coined as the Raking approach). Rim weighting is simply another name for this particular method of calculating case data weights.
Simple example
We create a Rim scheme instance as per:
>>> simple_scheme = qp.Rim(name='simple')
A weight scheme is mainly based on the defintion of a target distribution for one or multiple variables. We define these targets in the form of a dict mapping variable names to weight targets lists (please note: the order of the items in the target lists must match the ascending order of the data’s variable values):
>>> targets_gender = [45.6, 54.4]
>>> targets_locality = [10, 15, 20, 25, 30]
>>> weight_targets = {'gender': targets_gender,
... 'locality': targets_locality}
Using the Rim method set_targets() we pass the weights defintion to the scheme:
>>> simple_scheme.set_targets(targets=weight_targets)
Filtered weights and total scaling
It is possible to restrict the weight scheme to a portion of the data by adding a filter expression. Also, we can control the size of the total number of weighted cases by passing the desired total sample size in the total parameter of the instance creation:
>>> W1_n1000_scheme = qp.Rim(name='W1, n=1000', total=1000)
We now use the add_group() method to apply a filter and the targets:
>>> W1_n1000_scheme.add_group(name='only_wave_1',
... filter='Wave==1',
... targets=weight_targets)
Inter-group distributions
Using the group_targets parameter the distribution between weight groups can be controlled as well, meaning that we can influence the proportions between multiple weight groups.
>>> waves_equal_scheme = qp.Rim(name='equal_waves')
We now use the add_group() method to apply a filters per group:
>>> waves_equal_scheme.add_group(name='W1',
... filter='Wave==1',
... targets=weight_targets)
>>> waves_equal_scheme.add_group(name='W2',
... filter='Wave==2',
... targets=weight_targets)
>>> waves_equal_scheme.add_group(name='W3',
... filter='Wave==3',
... targets=weight_targets)
>>> waves_equal_scheme.add_group(name='W4',
... filter='Wave==4',
... targets=weight_targets)
>>> waves_equal_scheme.add_group(name='W5',
... filter='Wave==5',
... targets=weight_targets)
Since we are dealing with 5 waves in total and want to factor all of them in equally (since each wave is likely to have a different number of collected cases), we assign group targets of 20% per filtered group:
>>> groups_w = {'W1': 20,
... 'W2': 20,
... 'W3': 20,
... 'W4': 20,
... 'W5': 20}
>>> waves_equal_scheme.group_targets(groups_w)
| class: | WeightEngine(data=None, dropna=True, meta=None) |
|---|---|
| method: | add_scheme(scheme, key) |
| method: | run(schemes=[]) |
With our weighting schemes set up, we can now start computing the factor values per case data entry. After loading the case data into a pandas.DataFrame via
>>> path_data = '/Quantipy Example Data/Example Data (A).csv'
>>> my_data = qp.dp.io.load_csv(path_data)
a WeightEngine object instance is constructed like this:
>>> weighting = qp.WeightEngine(data=my_data).
We can now add the weight schemes using add_scheme() and call the run() method with the name of a scheme to start the algorithm.
>>> weighting.add_scheme(scheme=simple_scheme, key='unique_id')
>>> weighting.add_scheme(scheme=W1_n1000_scheme, key='unique_id')
>>> weighting.add_scheme(scheme=waves_equal_scheme, key='unique_id')
The key parameter in add_scheme() is used to specify a unique key variable in the source file in order to correctly merge the computed factors back to the case data. We can now decide if we want to compute all schemes or just a selection of them: If the scheme parameter is omitted in calling WeightEngine.run() all schemes will be computed. We can, however, pass a list of scheme names or a single scheme name. For example:
>>> weighting.run()
is equal to:
>>> weighting.run(['simple', 'only_wave_1', 'equal_waves'])
After the weight factors have been computed we can inspect some diagnostic information, such as weighting efficiency and the minimum and maximum weight factors, using the report() method and passing a scheme name:
>>> rep = weighting.report('equal_waves')
>>> rep['summary']
Weight variable weights_wave groups, intergroups
Weight group W1 W2 W3 W4 W5
Total: unweighted 1577.000000 1631.000000 1652.000000 1607.000000 1611.000000
Total: weighted 1615.600000 1615.600000 1615.600000 1615.600000 1615.600000
Weighting efficiency 50.947862 49.502673 52.664037 51.109783 49.947061
Iterations required 13.000000 14.000000 11.000000 11.000000 11.000000
Minimum weight factor 0.258910 0.259802 0.262141 0.242685 0.254012
Maximum weight factor 2.982859 3.222140 2.849204 3.103139 3.129204
Weight factor ratio 11.520823 12.402273 10.868968 12.786699 12.319134
If explicit weight groups have been defined using add_group(), the report will split the summary information per group. In comparision the report for the basic case looks like this:
>>> rep = weighting.report('simple')
>>> rep['summary']
Weight variable weights_simple
Weight group __default_group_name__
Total: unweighted 8078.000000
Total: weighted 8078.000000
Weighting efficiency 50.993734
Iterations required 11.000000
Minimum weight factor 0.258480
Maximum weight factor 2.938652
Weight factor ratio 11.368981
Without a group name specified, the default '__default_group_name__' will be assigned. We can also see how the internal naming for the different weights works: it will always start with 'weights_' followed by the respective scheme name given by the user.
We can check if the calcualted factors for 'equal_waves_scheme' have produced the desired weighted distribution by quickly constructing a pandas.pivot_table():
Checking 'gender' distribution
>>> wdf = weighting.dataframe('equal_waves')
... counts = pd.pivot_table(data=wdf, index='gender', columns='Wave',
... values='weights_equal_waves', aggfunc='sum')
... counts
Wave 1 2 3 4 5

>>> pct = counts/counts.sum()*100

>>> pct

Happy with the results, we can simply use pandas.DataFrame.merge() to merge the accepted weight from the WeightEngine back to our source data file:
>>> weighted_data = my_data.merge(wdf[['weights_equal_waves', 'unique_id']],
... on='unqiue_id')
Note
Case data records that have missing data (np.NaN) in one of the target variables are excluded from the weighting algorithm. After a merge, these cases will have np.NaN in the resulting weight variable as well.
Warning
The impute_method parameter in quantipy.Rim() is experimental and can impute the (rounded) mean or median for missing entries if dropna is set to False. This should only be used for diagnostic runs.

Sends a specified length of a user defined message over UART2.
int Core2ForAWS_Port_C_UART_Send(const char *message, size_t len)
Sends a specified length of a user defined message over UART2.
Definition: core2forAWS.c:536
This is a helper function to simplify transmitting data over UART using the UART channel 2. This function does not return until all bytes are either transferred from the ring buffer to the hardware FIFO buffer, or already sent.
For more information about UART communications on the Core2 for AWS IoT EduKit using the ESP32, visit Espressif's official documentation.
The example below sets the PORT_C_UART_TX_PIN (GPIO 14) pin mode to UART transmit, which will also set PORT_C_UART_RX_PIN (GPIO 13) to UART receiver, and sets the UART baud rate to 115200. It then starts two FreeRTOS tasks — one that transmits "Hello from AWS IoT
EduKit" every two seconds and the other receives the message. The receiver task outputs the number of bytes read from the buffer, the number of bytes that remains unread in the ring buffer, and the message.
To receive the messages transmitted on the same device, run a female-female jumper wire from Port C's TX pin to PORT C's RX pin.
Example:
#include "freertos/FreeRTOS.h"
#include "freertos/task.h"
#include "driver/uart.h"
#include "driver/gpio.h"
#include "esp_log.h"
static const char *TAG = "UART_DEMO";
static void uart_tx_task(void *arg){
while (1) {
const char *message = "Hello from AWS IoT EduKit";
size_t message_len = strlen(message) + 1;
vTaskDelay(pdMS_TO_TICKS(2000));
}
}
static void uart_rx_task(void *arg){
int rxBytes;
while (1) {
if (rxBytes > 0) {
ESP_LOGI(TAG, "Read %d bytes from UART. Received: '%s'", rxBytes, data);
}
vTaskDelay(pdMS_TO_TICKS(100));
}
free(data);
}
void app_main(void){
if (err == ESP_OK){
xTaskCreate(uart_rx_task, "uart_rx", 1024*2, NULL, configMAX_PRIORITIES, NULL);
xTaskCreate(uart_tx_task, "uart_tx", 1024*2, NULL, configMAX_PRIORITIES-1, NULL);

Venice hit by another exceptional high tide; worst week in 150 years
by ReutersReeling from devastating floods this week, Venice suffered another exceptional high tide on Sunday, with the water peaking at 150 cm (4.9 feet), marking the worst week for the city since official tide statistics were produced in 1872.
The city's centre for tide forecasts had warned the tide could reach 160 cm on Sunday and the high mark hit at 1210 GMT was not far short of that.
Water flooded St Mark's Square and hundreds of voluntary workers were helping citizens cope with the emergency.
The city beloved around the world for its canals, historic architecture and art, was hit by a high tide at 187 cm (6.14 feet) on Tuesday. That was just short of the record 194 cm set in 1966 and caused the city's worst flooding in 50 years.
In normal conditions, tides of 80-90 cm are generally seen as high but manageable.
With four tides above 140 cm since Monday, this is the worst week for high tides in Venice since 1872 when official statistics were first produced.
Mayor Luigi Brugnaro, who has been appointed special commissioner to deal with the emergency, estimated damages from the flooding in the city since Tuesday at around 1 billion euros ($1.10 billion).
Authorities in Florence and Pisa were also closely monitoring the Arno river, whose water levels rose rapidly in the night due to heavy rain.
Italy's longest river, the Po, which runs across northern Italy passing through Turin, was also being monitored after its level rose by 1.5 metres in the last 24 hours due to heavy rain.
($1 = 0.9074 euros)

#include <linux/hdreg.h> /* for HDIO_GETGEO */
#include <linux/fs.h> /* for BLKGETSIZE and BLKRRPART */
The block device name has the following form: sdlp, where l
is a letter denoting the physical drive, and p is a number denoting the
partition on that physical drive. Often, the partition number, p, will
be left off when the device corresponds to the whole drive.
SCSI disks have a major device number of 8, and a minor device
number of the form (16 * drive_number) + partition_number,
where drive_number is the number of the physical drive in order of
detection, and partition_number is as follows:
- +3
- partition 0 is the whole drive
- partitions 1–4 are the DOS "primary" partitions
- partitions 5–8 are the DOS "extended" (or
"logical") partitions
For example, /dev/sda will have major 8, minor 0, and will
refer to all of the first SCSI drive in the system; and /dev/sdb3
will have major 8, minor 19, and will refer to the third DOS
"primary" partition on the second SCSI drive in the system.
At this time, only block devices are provided. Raw devices have
not yet been implemented.
The following ioctls are provided:
- HDIO_GETGEO
- Returns the BIOS disk parameters in the following structure:
struct hd_geometry {
unsigned char heads;
unsigned char sectors;
unsigned short cylinders;
unsigned long start;
};
- A pointer to this structure is passed as the ioctl(2)
parameter.
- The information returned in the parameter is the disk geometry of the
drive as understood by DOS! This geometry is not the
physical geometry of the drive. It is used when constructing the drive's
partition table, however, and is needed for convenient operation of
fdisk(1), efdisk(1), and lilo(1). If the geometry
information is not available, zero will be returned for all of the
parameters.
- BLKGETSIZE
- Returns the device size in sectors. The ioctl(2) parameter should
be a pointer to a long.
- BLKRRPART
- Forces a reread of the SCSI disk partition tables. No parameter is
needed.
- The SCSI ioctl(2) operations are also supported. If the
ioctl(2) parameter is required, and it is NULL, then
ioctl(2) fails with the error EINVAL.
- /dev/sd[a-h]
- the whole device
- /dev/sd[a-h][0-8]
- individual block partitions

GitHub Actions is an API for cause and effect on GitHub: orchestrate any workflow, based on any event, while GitHub manages the execution, provides rich feedback, and secures every step along the way. With GitHub Actions, workflows and steps are just code in a repository, so you can create, share, reuse, and fork your software development practices.
Since we introduced GitHub Actions last year, the response has been phenomenal, and developers have created thousands of inspired workflows. But we’ve also heard clear feedback from almost everyone: you want CI/CD! And that’s what we’re announcing today.
We hope you’ll try out the beta before GitHub Actions is generally available on November 13. We can’t wait to hear what you think!

Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni
Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni was an Italian sculptor, painter, architect and poet of the High Renaissance born in the Republic of Florence, who exerted an unparalleled influence on the development of Western art. Considered by many the greatest artist of his lifetime, and by some the greatest artist of all time, his artistic versatility was of such a high order that he is often considered a contender for the title of the archetypal Renaissance man, along with his rival, the fellow Florentine and client of the Medici, Leonardo da Vinci.

Is the dICO still usable or better wait for mm2.0 ?
jorian16-May-19 08:50 AM
if you want to do a dico, we can arrange a dico
it will be based on mm2.0
i'm not sure if KMD team will do dicos in the future
KomodoWorld16-May-19 08:54 AM
I'm just asking because there are 2 very interesting projects that could launch later this year (maybe) and they need wide distribution of coins, they seem perfect targets to propose to use dICO. Unfortunately neither of them is Bitcoin-based, so I think they will need to wait for mm2.0 and a custom integration.
KomodoWorld16-May-19 09:03 AM
Do you know if there been any data analysis about coin distribution with the 5 dICO that have been done? One of the dICO selling points was a wider distribution because whales can't buy most tokens at once. I think having data to back this claim would be very useful
bartwr17-May-19 06:51 PM
@KomodoWorld All transaction data should be available in the blockchain of the 'dICO coin'. Check the blockchain explorer of this specific coin during the time of the dICO to get data that you can analyse.
Would be nice if there was a graphical tool of course, but I don't think it exists right now.
bartwr17-May-19 07:00 PM
Also. Any team that launches a coin could help rewriting the dICO app, so that it's using the new mm2. It shouldn't be too difficult. (The mm2 is still in alpha right now. Later this year it is fully usable I believe).
Here's the Github repo: https://github.com/particle4dev/dicoapp-e I could help if there're questions for customizing or rewriting to mm2
SPV lightweight GUI wallet with barterDEX swap capabilities - particle4dev/dicoapp-e
KomodoWorld17-May-19 07:03 PM
it's a good idea, but extracting all that data manually takes a lot of time. I need to find if there are tools available
Mylo25-May-19 03:31 AM
Somebody was asking a out mm2 whale resistance compared to mm1.
Where it was a technical "thing" in mm1 it can also be restrictive in mm2 with a flag set of "max per swap per pubkey".
Slightly different mechanism to perform resistance. Can be gamed if a whale wanted to participate with 1000 instances perhaps.
@KomodoWorld I think you asked a cpl weeks ago(edited)
jl777c22-Jun-19 08:27 AM
it is highly resistant to the non-technical whale
but if a whale has technical skills too, well, they can dominate any online sales process,but such techie-whales are very very rare

JohnnyC16-Aug-19 06:13 AM
I know this isn't really a dICO, but there's a swiss company hoping to run an ICO adhering to KYC regulation, and have a few thousand dollars to put into a good ICO dashboard. I want to support komodo/the community so if it's possible to do (not really decentralized), would anyone be willing to give a quote?
Here are the requirements;
Presale of NFT indicating a set SuperNode, which will receive a % of bought back tokens quarterly.
Main sale of regular currency.
Competitive supernodes: quarterly top 10 holders are locked in for next quarter, receiving same benefits as set Supernodes.
Their main application is built on HyperLedger, and the main use of the token will be purchase of their services.
If this is possible, please send any quote you have Thanks in advance, and I hope I can inject a bit of support to the Komodo community if possible. (Don't undersell yourself, and give as realistic a quote as possible).

BRINGING OUT THE DEAD RATING: 6.5 /10 -->So-so
For more reviews and movie screensavers, visit http://www.joblo.com/
Twenty-three years after dropping the ultimate ode to loners everywhere onto the world, TAXI DRIVER (9/10), director Martin Scorsese re-teams with TAXI's screenwriter, Paul Schrader, to revisit the filth and grime of New York's city streets. This time, the protagonist is an after hours ambulance driver/paramedic, who finds himself haunted by patients lost and distraught over the continued hopelessness of his situation.
PLOT: A stressed-out ambulance medic finds himself haunted by the ghosts of people whose lives he was not able to save during his fast-paced graveyard shifts. The film takes place over a period of 48 hours in which the man essentially moves from one emergency situation to another.
CRITIQUE: Think a softer, kinder, less psychotic, and much longer TAXI DRIVER! This underlying story behind this film is no different than many others that you have already seen. A man obsessed by the mistakes from his past, feels guilty and attempts to finds redemption in his present state. Much like TAXI DRIVER, the man in this case drowns himself in drink, finds little time to sleep and gets fixated on "saving" a girl. Much unlike TAXI DRIVER, this film doesn't have much depth, doesn't carry broad political or social connotations, and does not feature an actor completely engrossed in his character. Don't get me wrong, I thought Cage did a good job as the burnt-out, over-worked stressball, but nothing could really compare to DeNiro's possession of Travis Bickle. But I suppose that's another review altogether. All in all, I thought this was actually a pretty good movie with some good performances from the leads, and some even better showings from supporting characters such as Marc Anthony, Ving Rhames, Tom Sizemore and the drug dealer, Cliff Curtis.
The story itself is not necessarily overpowering, in fact, it basically just moves along its path, predictably strolling down certain emotional avenues, until its final resting spot at the conclusion, which we all foresee early on. Repetitive it is as well, with the basic story essentially featuring Cage et buddy flying from one crisis scene to the next. Thankfully for us, director Martin Scorsese looked waaaay down into his visual bag o' tricks and came up with many new and unique camera games with which to amuse us during the film's two hour runtime. A runtime which basically outlasts its visit by about 20 minutes or so. You can actually feel the last half hour go by, as opposed to the general rapid pace of the first hour and a half. For Martin Scorsese fans, this one should be seen if only for its excellent stylish demonstrations. Cage fans should also check it out as he basically reverts back to his pre-action star days, a la LEAVING LAS VEGAS (9/10), when he actually did some interesting work as an actor. But for everyone else, I can't say that this will be a film that will draw you in with its meaningful story or original undertones. If you enjoy new ways of shooting film or creating motion across a movie arc, then you might also want to see this flick, but overall, I wouldn't recommend it to your "basic movie-going audience". Scorsese and style fans only! Now don't make me take off my glasses!!
Little Known Facts about this film and its stars: Director Martin Scorsese recently got married for the 5th time, a lengthy laundry list which has included such luminaries as actress/model Isabella Rossellini and producer of many of Marty's films (including this one), Barbara DeFina. He also heavily dated actress Illeana Douglas for a few years. He was once offered the opportunity to direct SCHINDLER'S LIST in the mid-1980's, but declined because he didn't think that he could make as good a film as a Jewish director possibly could. Steven Spielberg went on to direct the film and won the 1993 Oscar for Best Director, an award that Martin Scorsese has never won. Writer Paul Schrader has been married to actress Mary Beth Hurt since 1983. She has a small role in this film as Nurse Contance. Interesting to note that two famous people take credit for the dispatch voices which you, along with Cage and his ambulance driving co-hort, hear during the film's constant calls for emergency action. The male voice is none other than the director himself, Martin Scorsese, while the female voice is actor/rapper Queen Latifah. Actor Marc Anthony, who plays Noel in this film, is actually a very famous Latin singer, who most recently released his first full-length English album. He also sings a duet on fellow Latin singer/actor Jennifer Lopez's debut album. This is the fourth film collaboration between writer Paul Schrader and director Martin Scorsese, with TAXI DRIVER, RAGING BULL, THE LAST TEMPATATION OF CHRIST, being the previous three. This film is based on the similarly titled novel by Joe Connelly.

This implementation of Conway's Game of Life is part of my effort to get familiar with CoffeScript and canvas HTML5 element.  More about the game you can find in the Wikipedia article
Click around the grid to put your initial cell generation to life. When you are ready to see how they evolve just click the play button and watch. Evolution of your cell generations will start and by clicking on the grid during the simulation you can help them evolve in various directions. You can always stop the game, set some new cells and then continue to watch their evolution. There are 4 rules according to which cells evolve in order to form the next generation:
Code for the game is available on GitHub.

This Week in Redox 4
This is the fourth post of a series of blog posts tracking the development and progress of Redox, the Rust operating system. If you want to know more about Redox in general, then visit our Github page.
(written by Ticki)
What’s new in Redox?
Thanks to @jackpot51 with the help of others, SDL, dosbox, zlib, libpng, libiconv and freeciv have been ported. Following are either almost ported or partially ported: gcc, newlib and binutils.
Thanks to @ticki Redox boots 10-20% faster, due to rewriting some parts of the kernel. This speedup mainly comes from rewriting the path parser and the URL parser.
@nounoursheureux added an event triggered on programs exiting.
@stratact greatly improved the file manager. Now the file type is described in a new column, and the way the correct icons are loaded based on the file type was rewritten.
@ticki made the URL syntax agnostic, so now everything after the
:
is left to the provider.@nobbz has been asked by his professor to give a ten minute talk about Redox.
Sodium (text editor) has lots of new features. Thanks, @stratact, for helping out with the bug fixes.
@achanda, @stratact, and @ticki cleaned up the warnings, code style and did some refactoring in the kernel.
@lazyoxen switched from a four byte array to a Color struct to represent colors in
libredox
.
What does it look like?
;)
The start screen:
What’s next?
- Port stuff
- Finish x86_64 support (it compiles!).
- Extend Sodium.
- Extend Orbital.
- ZFS scheme and write support

Spirit AI has developed two unique AI products.
The Character Engine harnesses the latest psychological and computer research to re-create what makes us human. It enables organisations to bring human-like attributes into their creations through speech, personality, emotion, understanding and memory to provide truly immersive, human-like interactions in digital mediums. It allows you to build characters who will improvise based on your narrative requirements and the player’s input making each visit to that digital space different to the last.
Ally, their second product, enables any organisation with an online community to safeguard their communities against abusive behaviour, grooming, racism, homophobia, trolling and bullying. As existing solutions rely heavily upon proactive abuse reporting or key-word searches of abusive language, Ally utilises sophisticated AI technologies such as language and behavioural analysis, signature analysis and machine learning that provides the unique power to automate the interception of abuse, all the time, in real time.
This can be perceived as an Internet of Things ecosystem where the chat messages are events that are coming from a variety of sensors - chat rooms, social media feeds, log files, etc. Node-RED is used to write and implement the rules that are executed on these message streams to understand the context and the situations that are occurring within the chat.
Node-RED was a great match for the approach they needed to take with Ally: An intuitive wiring UI for building the rules that can execute on incoming chat messages and the back-end node.js engine that can execute these rules as parallel streams. Integrating Node-RED with their own code, by building custom nodes, was an easy option compared to other more complex alternatives.
