Hi,
Would it be technically possible to dPow KMD (only KMD, not SC or 3p) to 2 chains at once?
blackjok3r01-Sep-19 02:55 AM
yes but its pointless IMO.
You would only be making an extra external referance... it cannot be 2 serperate notarizations all thogether.
because they would conflict at times and cause each other to be invalid.
CrisF01-Sep-19 04:23 AM
Thanks. It's not for technical reasons. Just a piece in a puzzle I'm working on
last week KMD's FB was available, and today i couldn't find it, i am puzzled

@jl777c do u ever see governments use blockchain when it comes to lets say tax related things? At this moments politics often say we gonna do this with 1 billion dollars but in the end only 250m gets used of the supposed 1 bil. If they would set fixed parameters with time lock before it can get edited next time.
jl777c04-Sep-19 11:46 AM
i cant see how govts would ever want to make things fully accountable

much easier to be able to say whatever they want and have it backed by... nothing

Yea i dont expect them to ever use such rules either was just having it in mind that they could get ppls trust if there was fixed rules
but probably too good to be true

@jl777c I don't know if you heard about PoolTogether (www.pooltogether.us), but I think it's an awesome Idea and would fit perfectly with Komodo, giving everyone ("the small people") a chance to win without losing....(edited)
Mylo05-Sep-19 09:04 AM
yes someone can build this using tokens (as the lottery ticket) and locking up KMD for monthly rewards.
lock up 30x1000KMD for a daily 5KMD prize of the rewards claim.(edited)

the winner can be selected randomly from the transactions of issuing the lottery tickets.
polycryptoblog05-Sep-19 09:09 AM
I am going to advise against any lottery tied to mainchain
It’s just a quagmire in pretty much every country unless done through a NPO, and even then there are restrictions
wl05-Sep-19 09:16 AM
I thought it'd be a good idea because of the -no losing- part, there are no risks involved, therefore it wouldn't present a risk as any of the traditional lotteries...
polycryptoblog05-Sep-19 09:21 AM
Chance consideration and prize make a lottery . While you “win” your money back, you had to front up the DAI ( in the pooltogether example ) first. That would be consideration.
Not against games just warning against potential missteps that may occur, it is a good idea though just needs to be thought of how to be done legally , if you were unaware decred is facing some issue because of their staking system because it is somewhat like a lottery.

Beam needs to be BTC-compatible, understand API calls like senddrawtransaction, gettxout and so on...

Just found (slowpoke!) that btc has a backdoor for actually destroying coins. By not spending fees of mined block. Is it reproducible in kmd coins?(edited)
Not in the form of sending to fake address, those are unspendable, but not burnt. Above actually remove btc from existence.
We know how bitcoins are created, but how can they be destroyed?
@polycryptoblog just curiosity

Hey @jl777c what do you think will be the biggest application for blockchain? Whether it would be currency, IoT, oracles, or something else entirely. What do you see as Komodo's greatest area of opportunity, and do you think the Komodo of today is well positioned to succeed there?(edited)

Mylo18-Sep-19 02:18 AM
transactions - by software/machines, bots, games, voting etc. anything with an invoice or line item, any exchange. it's the monetization of the web, digital assets & tokens. from the abacus with roman numerals that couldn't do division, to the change to the hindu-arabic number system & double entry accounting that is about 430 years old. blockchain's first application was bitcoin currency, like email to the web. now streaming vids - in the future streaming payments.
actionslacks18-Sep-19 03:59 AM
it's an intrinsicly superior system for so many applications. It is a complete certainty to me that any digitally distributed system where trust is necessary to operate can and will be replaced by trustless tech because it's faster, cheaper, and better.
jl777c18-Sep-19 06:18 AM
@kolo
send to unspendable address
like opreturn, or some pubkey that has no privkey or a script that can never validate
@Regnar just like it would not have been possible to predict that cat videos would be the most popular usage of the internet, i dont think it is possible to predict what will be the equivalent for crypto. also, it becomes a meaningless question, as i dont think you can answer what the biggest application for the internet is. it just permeates everything

Regnar18-Sep-19 10:45 AM
Fair enough :) then what do you think is Komodo's greatest area of opportunity, and do you think Komodo is well positioned to succeed there?
jl777c18-Sep-19 10:52 AM

this is why komodo tech is broad, whereever it turns out the crypto is becoming mainstream, komodo will be there. likely komodo will be leading the way

kolo18-Sep-19 05:43 PM
@jl777c im talking about solutions when coins actually removed from system. Not sent to unspendable address where they account for circulating supply. See link above - unclaimed miners fee cease to exist. Can we get same function as a function?
CHMEX18-Sep-19 06:12 PM
note sure if this helps.
on KMD and any assetchain if you send the coins the the official null priv key burn address the coins are removed from the circ. supply.
Which for any coin is always a calculation of premine + blockreward
jl777c18-Sep-19 06:12 PM
since unspent utxo become txfee and txfee goes to miners, something about that would need to be changed
kolo19-Sep-19 12:33 AM
In btc miners when constructing coinbase tx are allowed to not account txfees at all, so this satoshis (10+ btc according article) disappear. It’s interesting, first of all and also can break some system relaying in fact supply never decreases.
I have huge theoretical interest, because supply never decreases, and unspendable address is just one more existing input, which will never be spent, not that interesting
Tl;dr definitive way to destroy vs unspendable inputs as useful, but non definitive

LITTLE NICKY (New Line) Starring: Adam Sandler, Harvey Keitel, Patricia Arquette, Rhys Ifans, Tom "Tiny" Lister, Kevin Nealon, Allen Covert. Screenplay: Tim Herlihy & Adam Sandler & Steve Brill. Producers: Jack Giarraputo and Robert Simonds. Director: Steve Brill. MPAA Rating: PG-13 (adult humor, profanity, violence) Running Time: 93 minutes. Reviewed by Scott Renshaw.
Back in the late '70s and early '80s, Burt Reynolds started making movies that generally appeared to be cast parties committed to celluloid.  The result was the kind of film where it was obvious that everyone in the movie was having loads and loads of fun. Viewers, on the other hand, generally found the experience about as much fun as having the cars in the film back up repeatedly over the base of their skulls.
In LITTLE NICKY, Adam Sandler decides to hold a reunion for all his former "Saturday Night Live" cast-mates and cronies, only he forgot to bring a script. Or anything funny to do. Or anything to counteract the typically Y2K gratuitous crudeness that makes you want to swear off ever seeing movies again. The premise finds Sandler cast as Nicky, the milquetoast son of the Devil (Harvey Keitel). Dear old dad has recently decided that he's not ready to give up the throne to one of his progeny, which angers Nicky's nastier brothers Adrian (Rhys Ifans) and Cassius (Tom "Tiny" Lister).  This development threatens to upset the balance between good and evil, or something to that effect, so Nicky must go retrieve his brothers -- and make out with Patricia Arquette, and do a feature-length commercial for Popeye's Chicken -- before Daddy Devil disintegrates into a pile of special effects-generated body parts.
Let's leave aside for a moment the fact that LITTLE NICKY is based on the morally itchy proposition that we're expected to root for the survival of the Devil. There's plenty more repugnant stuff in LITTLE NICKY that may make you wish you too were disintegrating into a pile of special effects-generated body parts (ideally without any sensory apparatus to take in the film itself). Sure, we could all just chuckle about it and shake our heads ruefully about the increasing popularity of such "moron movies." That would mean giving a pass to (ostensible) gags based on children getting drunk and vomiting, dogs humping, jabs at a guy perhaps being gay, various bodily fluids, a pair of comic relief Satan-worshipers, a demon with a huge pair of breasts on his head and Hitler getting his daily punishment of large objects shoved up his rectum. Please, somebody throw me a pair of knee pads, 'cause they're aching from where I'm slapping them.
Of course, Adam Sandler fans would likely consider such a sarcastic dismissal the whining of an out-of-touch guy who just doesn't get how brilliantly hysterical Sandler is. And such a predictable view might be remotely defensible if not for the fact that Sandler himself is reduced to the status of straight man for most of the film.  Like the good host, he defers to his "SNL" buddies (Carvey, Lovitz, Nealon, Schneider, writer Robert Smigel as the voice of Mr. Beefy the Bulldog), cast members from previous films (Allen Covert, Peter Dante, Jonathan Loughran) and even Harvey Keitel and Quentin Tarantino. This is a film that asks you to laugh harder at a performance by Quentin Tarantino than a performance by Adam Sandler. If you need to know anything more to keep you away, your soul is already lost.
LITTLE NICKY finds a brief spark of life late in the film when Reese Witherspoon turns up as an angel in a heaven that's more like a sorority house. The gags about giggling cherubim are at least moderately amusing, and Witherspoon continues to show the comic chops that made her so good in ELECTION. But LITTLE NICKY can never get past the vibe that the whole thing was an excuse for Sandler to give work to his friends so they could riff on the set. You don't need to waste time being outraged by a film about a hero from hell, or by its stupidity and crass humor. You can save all your outrage for the idea that Adam Sandler is asking you to for your ticket dollars to finance his high-concept hot tub party.

David Prutton reveals latest Championship predictions with Bristol City, West Brom and Leeds United in action
The Championship is back for matchday 17 after a two-week absence
by Elliott JacksonThe Championship returns for matchday 17 after the end of another international break.
The league will now have a run of four months uninterrupted as managers prepare their squads for the hectic Christmas period which is just around the corner.
Championship action returns on Friday night with Fulham and Queens Park Rangers going head to head at Craven Cottage in a west London derby.
On Saturday, league leaders West Brom host Sheffield Wednesday, whilst Leeds United travel to Luton Town.
Second-place Preston North End travel to Derby County, who have impressed at home despite their mid-table position.
There's a basement battle at Bet365 Stadium as Michael O'Neill bids to make it two wins from two as Stoke City manager against travel-sick Wigan Athletic.
Out-of-form Blackburn Rovers host bottom club Barnsley, now under the stewardship of Gerhard Struber, whilst Middlesbrough host Hull City on Sunday.
With all that in mind, Sky Sports' EFL expert David Prutton is back with his latest set of Championship predictions.
Fulham vs Queen Park Rangers
"How will Fulham get on without Aleksandar Mitrovic? He has been so, so important to them since he arrived at the club and his suspension is a huge blow for this west London derby.
"QPR have hit the buffers in recent weeks, and are without a win in four. Maybe the international break will have given them a chance to recharge their batteries and they can grab a draw."
Prutton predicts: 2-2
Charlton Athletic vs Cardiff City
"Charlton are another side who will feel the international break came at the right time after a slump in their form lately. Twenty-two points from their first 16 games is still a fantastic return, though, considering their pre-season expectations.
"This is a wonderful opportunity for Neil Harris, who takes charge of his first Cardiff game. It will be interesting to see how he tries to deviate from Neil Warnock's style of play early on as the squad has very much been shaped in his image. I'll back a bit of new manager bounce and an away win."
Prutton predicts: 0-1
Derby County vs Preston North End
Inconsistency is plaguing Derby's season, and they will have had two weeks to dwell on that defeat to bitter rivals Nottingham Forest.
Preston proved they can win away at Charlton at the start of November and this is another chance for them to lay down a marker. I think they will do just that.
Prutton predicts: 0-2
Luton Town vs Leeds United
"It was never going to be easy for Luton on their return to the Championship after such a long time away, but four defeats on the spin has left them in real jeopardy of dropping into the bottom three.
"Leeds returned to form before the international break and will fancy their chances of making it three wins in a row. I can't see past an away win."
Prutton predicts: 0-2
West Brom vs Sheffield Wednesday
"Can anyone stop West Brom? They look like they have got the quality to really charge to promotion this season, especially with Slaven Bilic at the helm.
"Sheffield Wednesday have now got a potential points deduction looming over them, and it must feel like Deja Vu for Garry Monk. Home win for me."
Prutton predicts: 2-1
Middlesbrough vs Hull City
"It really couldn't have gone much worse for Jonathan Woodgate so far. They have picked up just two wins all season and find themselves in the relegation zone heading into Sunday's game.
"Hull on their day can give anyone a game in this league, and with Jarrod Bowen and Kamil Grosicki they could carve through Boro at the Riverside."
Prutton predicts: 0-2
Remaining Championship predictions:
Blackburn vs Barnsley: 0-1
Brentford vs Reading: 2-1
Bristol City vs Nottingham Forest: 1-2
Huddersfield vs Birmingham: 2-1
Stoke vs Wigan: 2-1
Swansea vs Millwall: 2-0

There was in Bearnairidh in the Harris, a man coming past a knoll, and taking the road, and he heard churning in the hill. Thirst struck him. "I had rather," said he, "that my thirst was on the herdswoman." He had not gone but about twenty rods away when a woman met him, and she had a fine green petticoat on tied about her waist, and she had a vessel of warm milk between her two hands. She offered him a draught, and he would not take it.
"Thou one that sought my draught, and took not my draught, mayest thou not be long alive."
He went to the narrows, and he took a boat there over; and coming over the narrows he was drowned.
(Gaelic omitted)
...
From Malcolm MacLean, who learnt it from his grandfather, Hugh MacLean.
North Uist, August 11, 1859.
The Argyllshire stories, which I can well remember as a child, are of the same stamp. The fairies lived in hills, they came out now and then and carried people away; and they spent their time inside their dwellings in dancing to the pipes. They stole milk, and they were overcome by charms, which men sold to those who believed in them. They could not withstand a rowan-tree cross; nor could they follow over a running stream.
There is a small waterfall in a wood which I know, where it used to be said that the fairies might be seen on moonlight nights, fishing for a magic chain from boats of sedge leaves. They used to drag this chain through the meadows where the cattle fed, and the milk came all to them, till a lad, by the advice of a seer, seized one end of the chain and ran for his life, with the fairy troop in pursuit; he leaped the lin and dropped the chain; and the lin is called the chain lin still.


Loving personality: is characterized by the ability to understand the problems of others, especially the emotional ones, so a compassionate person always tries to avoid hurting the feelings of the people around him, and insists on making others happy and bothering them with their sorrows. Some may misjudge the loving personality by associating it with weakness, but weakness is not related to tenderness.
The lymphatic personality: it is the most objective and systematic personality, so it is considered a person with great wisdom, and it gives its owner the ability to pause and not be emotional; The characteristic of lymphatic frigidity helps to overcome the causes of failure in his life, and becomes a persistent figure.
Passionate personality: it is the combination of emotionalism and vitality that presents the passionate character, and who is interested in achieving her desires, and achieving success on the social level. The passionate personality is associated with the most famous historical figures with a great impact. They love power and leadership, and they have a strong will that may sometimes be interpreted as cruelty.

💥 NEW in Version 1.0.2 💥 We cleaned (i.e., linted and styled) the code and fixed a couple small formatting issues in the paper templates. The automatically produced paper code should pass checks based on the tidyverse style guide.
Modern versions of the RStudio interface (v2022.07 or later) ships with Quarto; update to the most recent version of RStudio here. If you know what you are doing, you can install the latest version of Quarto directly from here.
Then you should run this in the console of RStudio:
if (!requireNamespace("remotes")) install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_cran("rUM")
If you would like the (unstable) development version, use the following code instead:
if (!requireNamespace("remotes")) install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("RaymondBalise/rUM")
The default reference style is the New England Journal of Medicine. The style is set by the Citation Style Language (csl:
) option near the top of the file. To use a different style, download a csl file from https://www.zotero.org/styles/ into the folder with your analysis file. Then change the-new-england-journal-of-medicine.csl to the name of the file you downloaded.
The analysis file includes this code near the bottom:
c(
.packages(),
"rUM",
"table1"
),
If you want to acknowledge a package that is not used directly in your analysis file, add its name inside of the c()
function. The authors of the packages that you used for exploratory data analysis will thank you.
After you knit/render the analysis file once the packages will appear in the “packages.bib” file in the same directory/folder as your analysis file. If you are using the RStudio Visual Editor, put the cursor when you want to add the citation, then use the Insert Menu and choose @ Citation… and pick the article. If you are using the Visual Studio Source Editor, open the “packages.bib” file, find the manual reference for the package that you want to add and copy it. For example, if you needed to add a reference to the rUM
package you would find this line:
@Manual{R-rUM
and copy the reference name. Here the name is R-rUM
. Paste that where you want the citation like this [@R-rUM]
.
R Markdown
headers?
This will create a new subdirectory in your current working directory with the same name as the name of the .Rmd
file you specified. Within this directory, you will find the analysis R Markdown file. For example, if you created an R Markdown file called wrangle_cytometry_data.Rmd
with the steps above, then your current directory will now have a subdirectory called wrangle_cytometry_data/
which will contain the file wrangle_cytometry_data.Rmd
and any subsequent files from the knitting process (such as .PDF
, .html
, or .docx
files created by knitting the RMarkdown document).

JEFFSON'S FOUNDATION
Everyone deserves to be happyAfrica is bedevilled by so many social, economic and political problems; Nigeria in particular has not escaped from this wealth of untold hardship. As a result of these difficulties, many have died, and many are dying. It is unfortunate to know however, that those who bear the brunt of all these sufferings are mothers and children and this is a situation the JEFFSON’S FOUNDATION is willing to change.
The JEFFSON’S FOUNDATION which is a non-governmental charity organization, kicked off with the main aim to cater for the Total well-being of the African child through Education and health services.
The JEFFSON’S FOUNDATION has a mission of organising constant free medical outreaches, organization of campaigns against emerging diseases and fight against HIV and AIDS in children and adolescent.
With a mission statement that reads “Everyone deserves to be happy”, the JEFFSON’S FOUNDATION has been able to organise seminars, workshops, trainings and walk campaigns to encourage more participation of youths in the organization.
The foundation which is presently located in Abuja and Ajayi Crowther University, Oyo, Nigeria, is set to expand its reach to other parts of the country and within record time other West African countries and Africa generally.


Amit Shah says NRC applies across India, Mamata Banerjee says not in West Bengal
The NRC has been controversial in Assam: the updated final list, released in August, has left out over 19 lakh applicants. Here's what Union Home Minister Amit Shah and West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said today about the NRC.
HIGHLIGHTS
- We won't divide people on communal lines: Mamata Banerjee
- No one can take away anyone's citizenship in Bengal: Mamata Banerjee
- No person, irrespective of religion, needs to fear: Amit Shah
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee says her Trinamool Congress government won't allow the National Register of Citizens (NRC) in her state.
She said on Wednesday that no one could take anyone's citizenship away in Bengal, and that her government wouldn't divide people on communal lines.
Earlier, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said the NRC would be implemented across India, and that nobody, irrespective of his or her religion, needed to be afraid.
In Assam, the updated final NRC, which validates bonafide Indian citizens, has left out over 19 lakh applicants.
The NRC aims to identify illegal immigrants -- primarily from Bangladesh -- who entered Assam and settled there after March 25, 1971, and deport them to their native country.
Amit Shah said in Parliament that people whose names are missing from the NRC can approach tribunals formed at the tehsil level.
The Assam government will provide financial help to those who don't have the money to file pleas, he said.
He said the government would bear the cost of hiring a lawyer.
MAMATA ATTACKS OWAISI'S AIMIM AGAIN
Mamata Banerjee made a second veiled attack on the Asaduddin Owaisi's AIMIM party on Wednesday, saying leaders visiting the state from Hyderabad with money bags and claiming to be sympathisers of Muslims were the "biggest allies" of the BJP.
At a public meeting, Banerjee urged the Muslim community not to trust leaders visiting from outside and only repose faith on leaders from the state, as they could only fight for the cause of the people of West Bengal.

Checkboxes have five states. The default state is the state the control has without any interaction by the user. The Checked one symbolizes when the user selects the option that the checkbox represents. The Indeterminate one means that some items on a group are selected while other ones don't. Finally, the Disabled and Disabled Checked states represent when the checkbox can't be used for some reason. In the first case the user can't use the checkbox and it is non-selected. Instead, on the second one, the user also can't use the checkbox but it is selected.
A set of checkboxes can work together as a set, be organized in a horizontal or vertical way. It is possible to assign a unique label for the whole set.
Checkboxes usually go with a Label but, sometimes, it could be useful to use them without it (E.g. inside a table row).
Below are the good practices that should guide the uses of the component to maintain coherence in the design system and the spirit with which they were sustained.

Title with Link to Story on Milkshake Website
04/29/2013
It has been two weeks since you signed up for _Milkshake_ and we wanted to
introduce ourselves and say a big _thanks_ for being a part of our
community.
Links:

_Milkshake is a great place to get a daily dose of what’s good: good in
fashion, travel, food, eco, causes, companies and incredible changemakers. _
_How we decide what to cover_
Picking which stories to run is often a battle of our voices because we are
all so passionate about each and every story we cover. Bottom line, we cover
what we think is inspirational. We are good at picking up trends early and
place a high value on design and communication. Our goal is that each day we
bring you something that makes you stop and think, or makes you want to look
into something a bit more, or incites you to purchase and support a cool
cause.
_Separation of Church and State_
We wholeheartedly believe in this and we do not ever pay for play. We only
feature what we believe in and receive no monetary benefit from any product,
company or cause that we cover. In saying that, we must pay our editorial
staff and others who help grow Milkshake. You will occasionally receive an
email that is marked “Dedicated” in the subject line and the email header.
These emails are paid for by our sponsors but mostly still written by us and
they promote whatever good the sponsor is doing in the world. Most companies
are doing good in some way and we are proud to feature them and encourage
you to support them.
_Vetting Causes_
There are so many causes in the world, some started by young kids, some that
have been around for many, many years. We research each and every cause
before running a story on it. We look to Charity Navigator and Guide Star
for accreditation.
_Milkshake Community_
What is most exciting to us is how Milkshake is catching on and the exposure
we are bringing to the many different products, people and places that are
doing good. That is why we started, to create a community of like-minded
people who are stimulated and excited by each story we bring them every day.

_We love

FILM TITLE: EDWARD II DIRECTOR: DEREK JARMAN COUNTRY: ENGLAND ( 1992 ) CAST: Steven Waddington, Andrew Tiernan, Tilda Swinton, Nigel Terry, Jerome Flynn, John Lynch, Kevin Collins, Dudley Sutton, Annie Lennox SUPER FEATURES: Extremelly different approach to the renaissance writer's work. It works. This work is based on Christopher Marlowe's play. MUSIC: Simon Fisher Turner.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Much like Peter Greenaway's PROSPERO'S BOOKS, this play is not for everyone, and specially for those who have intellectual visions about both the poetry and the play.
In keeping with the general trend in England over the past thirty years to assault all theatre with every interpretation of the same play, anyone can come up with, this play is not erratic, or strange to follow. In all probability, it carries more truth than it does theatre, if the situations were considered possible, or true, if they were actual history.
The king is a homosexual ( nothing new there ) and has an affinity for a particular childhood friend ( Gaveston ) with whom he wishes to share the throne and every possession he has. However, this is a major problem for the nobility surrounding the court, and leads to the destruction of the king, supported by his jealous wife, who comes of as the gorgon. The Gaveston is ordered to be killed by the queen, and eventually the throne is taken away from Edward II and passed on to his young son, who happens to be a pawn in the whole thing.
While the conformists will never even stay for five minutes to watch this play, there is a bit too much kissing amidst the homosexuals in the court, the fact remains that its probability ( were it fact, and there is no reason not to accept a bit of literary license upon an old story ) of truth are actually better than the glorified events of any other tragedy, which both Marlowe and Shakespeare went after in the years to come.
There is also another thread which is difficult to ignore, and has also been explored on the stage. That Marlowe himself, was a young man that spent much of his time with other boys, thus sharing a few things with the king. However, this is not all too hard to take when it is a well known fact that younger men played all the roles of women in Shakespeare's time, and were well known to engage in sexual activity other than what was, and is, considered normal by any social standards. By all intents and purposes, this makes Doctor Faustus an exercise in narcissism, rather than a pact with the devil to fight an institution. At the time, much like the Hebrew counterparts, if a man was not married, or had children, he wasn't considered a man at all, but a detriment to society, and one to be made fun off.
Regardless of any of these facts, this is an excellent play, with some outstanding poetry, though it doesn't have the rhymes that Shakespeare was capable of, and it plays very straight forward......and well.
And although it isn't my special type of theatre, or the way I would really present it with its incredible directness and disregard for the audiences proclivities, it makes for a more open attitude in presentations, thus affording a better, clearer, and therefore more effective theme about the way humans tend to treat each other.
EXCELLENT PLAY. OUTSTANDING ACTING. NON COMPROMISING IDEALS. And not for everybody.

Malabar Tamarind
You may not have heard of the tamarind fruit, but you may have noticed the media buzz about the benefits of garcinia cambogia, the fruit of the tamarind. Recent studies have shown there may be a link between a key ingredient of garcinia cambogia; hydroxycitric acid and losing weight fast. Some researchers have suggested that hydroxycitric acid (hca) when taken in concentrations of 50% or higher can be a powerful fat burner, an energy booster and a key to quick weight loss!  Packed with a powerful dose of Vitamin C, these tart fruits provide excellent support to your immune system. Vitamin C helps to fight free radical damage that can lead to dangerous inflammation, high cholesterol and heart disease. Grapefruits also contain an important phytonutrient called lycopene, which has been shown to be beneficial in reducing a man’s risk for prostate cancer. In addition, the pectin contained in grapefruits is a form of soluble fiber that helps to lower your cholesterol.

Buildings sector is responsible for about 40 to 70 percent of world energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Providing a shelter as the fundamental axiom of our lives, plays a great role in inhabiting the earth in symbiosis with the environment. Both as a treat or as a help. Automatic controlling of the components of residential, commercial, and public spaces can potentially help bringing down this impact while providing dwellers peace of mind and comfort. In AiCtrl we aim to use state of the art machine learning algorithms to leverage the potential of automated systems in order to tackle current global environmental issues.
Using AI to train machines that can help us to make decisions about design and control in a smart, low-cost solution is the bridge. Decisions which were conventionally possible solely through expensive, non affordable, and advanced daylight, thermal and energy simulations/optimizations and/or knowledge of concessionaires.
AiCtrl addresses the shortcomings of building automation to save energy while providing thermal and visual comfort. The trained models considers the main driving environmental conditions and their contributions to each component to control the systems effectively.
Occasionally neglected factor of human comfort is what we care the most in AiCtrl. In our projects we always ready to go the extra mile to find the optimum solution based on multi objective criteria of visual and thermal comfort along with energy saving.
 Our cloud based infrastructure not only developed to lower the complexity of on premise control systems while utilizing the cutting edge algorithms to control building components without expensive sensors, but also to minimize consumption significance which technology has caused.

Week 1: 1.8 Cultural
The Command Line and Version Control
Dec. 4, 2015
The Benefits of Version Control
Version Control is the name given to a group of tools that allow developers (and non-developers, poets, writers, etc.) to track the progress of their work and create backups. The specific tool we have and will be using in DBC is called git. Git is a local piece of software that sits on your computer and works in conjunction with your command line. In order to use it, simply type "git ..." followed by a variety of commands. Another tool that then works in conjunction with git (which is working in conjunction with your home terminal) is called GitHub. GitHub is used as a remote component to the local git software and allows users to upload, store, and share their version control output. GitHub also functions as a significant part of the open-source community.
Developers use git and GitHub in their working process for a variety of reasons. To start, let's consider what the process of creating code actually looks like. The basic workflow of the developer generally goes as follows:
you create things (code)
you save things
you edit things
you save things again
This last part is where version control comes most in handy. Git gives you a clear sense as to when, why, and exactly what you did in each group of edits.  A commit is essentially a bundle of changes that are grouped together and labeled/described as a sort of checkpoint in the process of creating your something beautiful.
Tracking changes might not seem like such a difficult thing to do on an individual basis, but it can become quite confusing/complex when you're juggling multiple projects, project components, or collaborating with a partner or team on the same project. You need to be able to track who did exactly what, why and when.
This is generally done by forking directories of files off one GitHub account or group and then cloning them to your local computer. From here, you can create a branch to edit or add to the source code, saving changes along the way in 'commits' with detailed descriptions. When you are ready to add your edited or new component part to the group project whole, you can check your git status then merge your new branch back into the master. From here, you can then push it to the GitHub repository and you, or whoever has administrative control, can pull this series of commits and merge it into the remote master. This all may sound overly complex, especially without practical examples. But you can think of version control as saving checkpoints in a video game with multiple save files or as the "Google Docs" for developers. It allows individuals or teams to collaborate in real time without stepping on each others' toes or damaging the source code.
How does git help you keep track of changes?
Git helps you keep track of changes by allowing you to save edits as a bundle in something called a commit. Each time you start working on a project, you can create a new branch off of the master. This branch functions essentially as an alternate version of the original. It is a copy that can be altered without damaging the original, but when the time comes, it can easily be merged back into the original file with all new changes intact. To create new branch use the following command in your command line:
git checkout -b "NEW-BRANCH-NAME"This command creates and navigates to your new branch. From your new branch, you can add the existing project file you will be working on or create an entirely new one. To add an existing file simply type:
git add "file-name"From here you can go to your text editor and work on your file. When you feel like you have made a substantial change, save and go back to your command line. You will want to commit these changes to git. You do this with the following command:
git commit -m "commit description"Make sure to include a detailed anough description so it is clear to you and any others involved in the project what merging this commit will do to the final product. It is best-practice to write in the active tense and not the past ("Add header" instead of "Added header").
After you've committed your change, you can check the status of your project using the following command:
git statusThis will give you some command line readout that will tell you how many files have been changed recently and whether the file is staged to be committed or not staged for commit. Before you merge the file into your master branch, you always want to make sure your commits are up to date.
When they're up to date, you can merge your branch with the master by typing the following command:
git merge masterNow your master branch is up to date with the new changes you've made and you're ready to push the new feature branch into your remote fork repository.
Why use GitHub to store your code?
GitHub is useful for a number of reasons. You can create online repositories to store your code remotely. This means that if something happens to your local version of a code, you can always restore it from the remote version. GitHub allows you to work locally while keeping a remote backup.
Probably more importantly though, storing code remotely allows you to share it more easily with others, whether they're a third party simply interested in learning how you created something, or they're directly part of your development team and need access to current or developing versions of a project.
GitHub allows people to work simultaneously on a project without interfering with each other or damaging the original code by creating and cloning forks of the original author's work. This creates an environment optimal for collaboration where each individual is able to alter or add to code however they see fit and, when they create something that amounts to an improvement, as deemed by team consensus or original author permission, this change can be pushed and then pulled back into the original source code with the author or administrator's permission.


THE GENERAL'S DAUGHTER
Reviewed by Harvey Karten, Ph.D. Paramount Pictures Director: Simon West Writer: Nelson DeMille (novel), Christopher Bertolini, William Goldman Cast: John Travolta, Madeleine Stowe, James Cromwell, Timothy Hutton, Clarence Williams III, James Woods
"The General's Daughter" is the sort of movie that will be cheered by people who hate their fathers. Throw in folks who dislike and mistrust all authority and you have a box office success. Just wait for the hoops and hollers when the honchos get their comeuppance! But if you have good taste you'll recognize early on that while the concept that drives the film has originality, Simon West directs Christopher Bertolini and William Goldman's screenplay--based on a novel of the same name by Nelson DeMille--with the usual plot mechanisms, a conventional narrative approach, and hyped soundtracks to create dramatic tension when virtually none exists. (You know that a film is desperate when the music division resorts to the greatest cliche of all, Carmina Burana-- which is more appropriate to horror flicks.)
Since "The General's Daughter" involves crimes of violence in the military with cover-ups abounding, it brings to mind similar works like "A Few Good Men" and "A Soldier's Story." The former movie, based on a Broadway play, deals with the trial of two Marines for complicity in the death of a fellow Marine while they were serving on the U.S. military base on Guantanamo. The case puts the whole military mentality on trial. In the latter film, which is based on an off-Broadway play, a white commanding officer in charge of a black company whose sergeant has been murdered has the military on edge because the killer may be a white officer or a member of the local Klan. The point: when films deal with the genre of crime in the military, they often consider investigations to be nothing less than inquiries that could shake the entire armed forces to their foundation. "The General's Daughter" is no exception.
"The General's Daughter" focuses on Warrant Officer Paul Brenner (John Travolta), a sergeant who is working undercover with the army's criminal investigation division. Though a non-commissioned officer, he seems to have the authority to bust personnel as high as generals, but not just to apprehend them. He just loves to use his superior brawn to get the perps into hammerlocks, cuff them, throw them against walls, and then tell their lawyers that in this man's army the defendants do not have the right to counsel. He is conveniently paired with Warrant Officer Sarah Sunderland (Madeleine Stowe) with whom--for no reason other than to create romantic tension when none would ordinarily exist--he once had a dalliance. The story opens on Lt. General Campbell (James Cromwell, the farmer from "Babe"), who is receiving a retirement banquet from hordes of officers as the great man prepares to accept a vice presidential nomination. (Wouldn't it be great to see this apparatchik get his from a sergeant?) When the general's daughter, Capt. Elizabeth Campbell (Leslie Stefanson), is raped and strangled, Brenner and Sunderland take swift action to get to the bottom of the crime, but not before Brenner proves his vigor by ridding Fort MacCallum of a racist gun-runner.
This initial James-Bond style escapade serves as the only exciting moment of shoot-em-up dynamics. Subsequently, the movie sinks into the usual unbelievable scenes commonly found in whodunits that feature flat dialogue, macho men, vulnerable women, crazed killers, nutty victims, and/or cover-up attempts involving high officials. The discovery of porn tapes in one officer's secret room--in the living quarters of the army official you'd least expect to possess these--creates renewed interest part-way into the story, but before this movie can begin to drum up the interest found in "8mm" the detectives are off on the more banal cause: to blow the lid off the military.
Travolta is most interesting during the first couple of minutes when he puts on a convincing Bill Clinton accent to fool the MP's at the fort, but then spends his time either manhandling people well above his rank or flirting badly with his partner, played without enthusiasm by the Madeleine Stowe. You'd think that Col. Fowler (Clarence Williams III), who is the right-hand man of the general, would crack a little smile, just once, and that Timothy Hutton would try to show us some of the charm he rewarded us with as a college instructor in "The Substance of Fire." But no...everyone in this picture takes himself or herself far too seriously as if to prove that if you don't crack a smile or burst into laughter at the silliness of the plot, you must be a darn good actor.

Man died days after being pulled from Ellesmere canal
by Keri TriggAn inquest has heard how heroic passers-by pulled a 71-year-old man out of the canal in Ellesmere after he fell in and became unconscious.
Bernard Budworth was resuscitated by emergency services after members of the public dragged him from the canal in Ellesmere on September 14, but he had suffered a serious brain injury and died in hospital six days later.
The inquest into his death heard that Mr Budworth, from Warrington in Cheshire, was on a canal break with his wife, when he left their boat to collect some food for them both.
Senior coroner John Ellery summarised a statement by Mrs Budworth, who attended the hearing along with other family members.
He said at that 8.20pm she heard a noise, which turned out to be Mr Budworth entering the canal.
Mr Ellery said: “The police investigated and the most plausible scenarios are that your husband lost his footing or had a medical episode when he tried to get back onto the boat.
Accident
“What is clear is that, however it happened, it was an accident.”
A statement was read to the hearing from Douglas Yelland, who heard Mrs Budworth screaming and rushed to help.
He described how he and two others pulled Mr Budworth, who was face-down in the canal, onto the towpath.
Police and ambulance staff arrived and managed to resuscitate Mr Budworth, who was taken to the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital.
His condition deteriorated and he was transferred to the Severn Hospice, where he died on September 20.
The medical cause of death was given as acute hypoxic brain injury, caused by Mr Budworth almost drowning.
Mr Ellery recorded a conclusion of accidental death. He added that some of the people who helped Mr Budworth on that night had been put forward for an award from the Royal Humane Society.

Polish Wedding (PG-13) * 1/2 (out of ****)
In this year's summer movie preview issue of _Entertainment_Weekly_, Theresa Connelly described her writing-directing debut, _Polish_Wedding_, as "a child that did not quite become the child I thought it would." One wonders what exactly she originally had in mind for this jumbled film, a comedy-drama that appears doomed at its most basic elements.
The family at the center of _Polish_Wedding_ is the Pzoniaks, which consists of mother Jadzia (Lena Olin), father Bolek (Gabriel Byrne), sole daughter Hala (Claire Danes) and four sons of varying degrees of facelessness. It's a large family, but there's not a sympathetic one in the whole bunch, certainly not in the primary trio. Jadzia takes pride in building and maintaining a home and family, but she's kind of a hypocrite since she's carrying on an affair with a businessman Rade Serbedzija). Her excuse for her affair is neglect from Bolek, who is such a passive wimp that one cannot connect with his sadness and frustration. Also, how could he possibly pay so little attention to the saucy, sexy Jadzia?
With such an unappealing set of characters, it's no surprise that _Polish_Wedding_'s plot complications are far from involving. Naturally, Jadzia and Bolek would like Hala to marry the young cop, Russell Schuster (Adam Trese), who fathered the child, but he refuses to make such a commitment. Ho-hum. Another complication, involving the decidedly un-virginal Hala being selected to crown a statue of the Virgin Mary, is first played for laughs and then, inexplicably, as a Profound Statement in the film's climax--which, ironically, is funnier than any of the film's lame attempts at humor, such as a painfully labored slapstick attempt where Jadzia leads her sons in a charge to beat up Russell.
That scene is but one in a number of writing miscues by Connelly. The Jadzia-Bolek conflict is resolved in an overly pat way not unfamiliar to sitcom viewers. The Hala-Russell conflict isn't resolved in as contrived a manner, but their ultimate resolution will leave viewers wondering if they had missed something. And then there's some atrocious dialogue, which I am sure was not supposed to be as ridiculous as they sound: "Look at all these pickles. Just looking at them gives me such great sadness."
As misguided as _Polish_Wedding_ is, the affair is something of a letdown, considering the strong performances by Byrne, Danes, and especially the fiery Olin. They obviously believed in Connelly and her material--a faith that audiences will be hard-pressed to share.

I heard about salvia from on of my friends and was quite eager to try it after hearing about it. So as any other curious mind is I decided to try it.
We were sitting in my buddies car I was in the front seat and my bud was in the backseat and my other friend was driving. We packed the first bowl and I was the first to hit it so it did, as soon as i exhaled the smoke I was quite unaware of what hit me, It felt almost like a big oval shape toilet paper roll covered in smooth spikes was molding my body into an L shape. I said man, this is crazy gimme another hit, so I took another one.
I immediately lost consciousness and an insanely strong force pulled me somewhere else. I felt like I was sitting in a whole bunch of ice cream and the window that I was leaning against was a big sheet of ice cream splitting my head in half. As I looked on one side of the plate of ice cream it was this playskool, plastic-like world where this lady and her little boy were pushing a stroller up and down the street over and over. I could figure out what was going on. At the same time I could hear my buddies laughing at me in the background and for some reason it made qiute angry and really really scared.
All of a sudden I came to and was like what the hell just happened, I could figure it out.  This feeling went on for about half an hour. I finally came back to full reality and could figure out what just happened, to me it was something absolutley insane and out of this world I have never seen anything like and never will again, unless on salvia.
After trying it a gew more times I became extremely scared and worried and thought everyone was out to get me while I was high. Needless to say I refrained from using it again.

[gecode-users] Initialization of internal tree nodes in the unary Edge Finding propagator
Roberto Castañeda
rcas at kth.se
Fri Sep 24 12:45:34 CEST 2010
Hello, everyone!
I am studying the propagation algorithms for unary resource constraints from
Petr Vilím [1], and looking at how they are implemented in Gecode 3.4.0. While
looking at the implementation of the Edge Finding algorithm (scheduling/unary/edge-finding.hpp),
I have found a discrepancy with respect to Algorithm 2.6 in [1] that I do not
really understand: in the Gecode implementation, the internal nodes of the
Theta-Lambda tree are not initialized (i.e. assigned values for p, ect, lp, lect
computed from the leaves upwards) at the beginning of the algorithm.
I have also checked if this makes any difference on the propagation for the root
search node for the example from Figure 2.4. [1]. This is the frequency of execution
of each propagator before reaching the fixpoint with the original Gecode Edge Finding
algorithm:
6 Detectable Precedences
6 Edge Finding
6 Not-First/Not-Last
3 Overload Checking
3 Subsumed
And this is the frequency when I initialized all nodes at the beginning (with time
complexity O(n)):
4 Detectable Precedences
4 Edge Finding
4 Not-First/Not-Last
2 Overload Checking
2 Subsumed
While the constraint stores in the fixpoint are equal in both cases, the second version
(which I believe is what [1] proposes) saves one iteration of the whole family of unary
resource propagators. Is there any reason I missed for not initializing the internal
nodes of the Theta-Lambda tree?
I attach the Figure 2.4. example code.
Best regards,
Roberto

Status: Passed Jan 89 X3J13 with amendment to specify that CLOSE on aclosed stream returns NIL. At Mar 89 X3J13, amendment was withdrawn;
this version stands.
Forum: Cleanup
Issue: CLOSED-STREAM-OPERATIONS
References: CLOSE (CLtL p 332)
Category: CLARIFICATION
Edit history: 26-Aug-88, Version 1 by Chapman
8-Oct-88, Version 2 by Masinter
13-Oct-88, Version 3 by van Roggen
1-Dec-88, Version 4 by Pitman
5-Dec-88, Version 5 by Masinter (separate other issues)
Related Issues: STREAM-ACCESS, STREAM-INFO, INPUT-STREAM-P-CLOSED,
CLOSE-CONSTRUCTED-STREAMS, PATHNAME-STREAM
Problem Description:
The description of CLOSE is not completely clear about the functions
which are allowed to be performed on a closed stream.
On p332 it says:
``The stream is closed. No further Input/output operations may be
performed on it. However, certain inquiry operations may still
be performed, ...''
but the list of inquiry operations is not specified.
Proposal (CLOSED-STREAM-FUNCTIONS:ALLOW-INQUIRY)
Clarify the behavior of the following functions on closed streams:
* STREAMP is unaffected by whether its stream argument is open or closed.
* If CLOSE is called on a stream which is open, it will return T.
However, if CLOSE is called on a stream which is closed, it
will succeed without error but the return value is not specified.
* PATHNAME is valid on either an open or closed stream. Since some
implementations cannot provide the truename of a file until the
file is closed, it would in principle be possible for PATHNAME in
some implementations to return more specific information after the
stream is closed. For consistency, however, PATHNAME is prohibited
from doing this. PATHNAME must return the same pathname after a
file is closed as it did before. (The passed proposal in issue
PATHNAME-STREAM still stands.)
* TRUENAME is valid on either an open or closed stream. Since some
implementations cannot provide the truename of a file until the
file is closed, it is permissible TRUENAME to return more specific
information after the stream is closed.
* MERGE-PATHNAMES, PATHNAME-HOST, PATHNAME-DEVICE, PATHNAME-DIRECTORY,
PATHNAME-NAME, PATHNAME-TYPE, PATHNAME-VERSION, NAMESTRING,
FILE-NAMESTRING, DIRECTORY-NAMESTRING, HOST-NAMESTRING,
ENOUGH-NAMESTRING, and OPEN are valid on either open or closed streams.
For any of these operations, using a stream, S, as an argument
where appropriate is equivalent to using (PATHNAME s). See the
description of PATHNAME above to understand the consequences of this.
* PROBE-FILE and DIRECTORY are valid on either open or closed streams.
For either of these operations, using a stream, S, as an argument
where appropriate is equivalent to using (PATHNAME s). See the
description of PATHNAME above to understand the consequences of this.
In this case of these operators however, closed stream may well be the
most reliable arguments in some cases, since treatment of open streams
to the file system may vary considerably between implementations.
For example, in some operating systems, open files are written under
temporary names and not renamed until close and/or are held invisible
until a close is performed. In general, any code with an intent to be
highly portable should tread lightly when using PROBE-FILE or
Rationale:
One can consider many characteristics of a stream to be independent of
the ability to do I/O. Being able to determine a stream's direction and
its name is often useful for debugging. A number of the descriptions in
CLtL imply (weakly) the ability to work on closed streams. Functions
such as OPEN and DIRECTORY don't really depend on the stream, but on
the name of the stream.
Current Practice:
At least two implementations differ in which functions are allowed to be
performed on a closed stream.
Cost to Implementors:
Unknown, but likely to be small in most implementations.
A nontrivial amount of work may be necessary if the pathname information
is held externally and is normally deleted when the stream is closed.
The implementation will have to copy the information at some time for later
inquiries.
Cost to Users:
Likely to be small; users of an implementation forced to change
by this proposal might have to make some modifications to make their
programs portable.
Benefits:
These clarifications will assist users in writing portable code.
Aesthetics:
Most people will probably see these clarifications as an improvement
in aesthetics.
Discussion:
There are some separate, but related, issues regarding what CLOSE
should do on composite streams or constructed streams such as
created by MAKE-BROADCAST-STREAM. These issues will be addressed
in a separate issue (CLOSE-CONSTRUCTED-STREAMS).
There was some discussion on whether INPUT-STREAM-P and OUTPUT-STREAM-P
should return "false" on a stream that had been closed. The issue
STREAM-ACCESS contains a proposal to add a function OPEN-STREAM-P
which might be useful for the same purpose. This issue was separated
out into a separate issue (INPUT-STREAM-P-CLOSED).
The other functions in proposal STREAM-ACCESS:PROVIDE should
work on closed streams.
The functions in STREAM-INFO:ONE-DIMENSIONAL-FUNCTIONS should
not be requred to work on closed streams.

David Villa makes big claim about Harry Kane and his future
England captain Harry Kane has been labelled ‘the best striker in football right now’ by Spain legend David Villa.
The former Barcelona and Valencia forward also claims there is no need for Kane to leave Tottenham to fulfill his career goals, but he certainly has the capabilities to perform elsewhere.
Kane has scored nine goals in his last 10 games for club and country, taking his England tally to 32 goals in just 45 appearances in the process.
With 131 Premier League goals to his name at just 26-years-old, Villa does not see a better striker on the planet than Kane.
‘He is the best striker, or No 9, in football right now,’ said the Spaniard.
‘He is great in almost everything he does, he is one of the candidates for taking the golden boot at Euro 2020 for sure.’
Villa, who is retiring from football in December when the Japanese season finishes and his time with Vissel Kobe will come to an end, believes Kane has every option open to him.
Advertisement Advertisement
The forward has been at Spurs his entire career, but some uncertainty has arisen over his future now Jose Mourinho has taken over as manager at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Mourinho will undoubtedly want to keep hold of Kane, but if the striker was considering looking for pastures new, then the arrival of the Portuguese may encourage that process.
‘You don’t need to move to another club to motivate yourself. Harry has always played for Tottenham,’ continued Villa.
‘I know they are not doing so well this year but I’m not in his mind, I don’t know his future. He will be a good player wherever he goes for sure, he has talent to play in other leagues.’
Kane has scored six goals in 11 Premier League games so far this campaign and will start for Spurs in Mourinho’s first game in charge away to West Ham on Saturday.
Mourinho was repeatedly linked with a move for Kane while he was in charge of Manchester United and will be relishing working with the England captain now he has taken the reigns at Tottenham.


Proving Conjectures in Propositional Logic (SAT)
Propositional logic corresponds to the satisfiability problem (SAT). It is known to be NP-complete.
Only, the special case of 2-SAT is polynomial solvable (by converting the problem to computing the strongly connected components).
Ingredients
- The basic unit of propositional logic is the proposition, which may be either true or false.
- A set of operators, viz. conjunction $\land$, disjunction $\lor$ and negation $\neg$ (equivalence and implication are derived from these ones).
An example of implication, If Jack knows Julie, Julie knows Jack.
PROPOSITIONAL LOGIC IS DECIDABLE. Proof. For any statement you can use a truth table!
Let's find a more efficient method than computing truth tables.
Definitions
- A proposition $l$ is also called a literal.
- A clause $C$ is a disjunction of literals $l_1\lor l_2\lor\dots\lor l_n$ or equivalently a set of literals $\{l_1,l_2,\dots,l_n\}$.
- A clausal form (expressed in conjuctive normal form, CNF) $\Sigma$ is a conjuction of clauses $C_1\land\dots\land C_c$ or equivalently a set of clauses (a set of sets) $\{C_1,\dots,C_c\}$.
- Given a clausal form $\Sigma$, a refutation is the derivation of a contradiction $\perp$, namely $\Sigma\vdash\perp$.
Now we want to define an inference rule which is used for refutation of clauses. Consider two clauses $C_1=\{l,a,\dots\}$ and $C_1=\{\neg l,b,\dots\}$. These two clauses are said to clash. Therefore, we can define the resolvent of the two clashing clauses as $C=C_1\setminus\{l\}\cup C_2\setminus\{\neg l\}$
Resolution. Given a clausal form $\Sigma$, resolution takes two clashing clauses $C_1,C_2$ computes the resolvent $C$ and add it to the clausal form. We can easily prove that $\{C_1,C_2,C\}$ preserves the truth of $\Sigma$.
Note that resolution allows to derive a contradiction, in fact if $C_1=\{a\}$ and $C_2=\{\neg a\}$, then the resolvent is $C=\{\perp\}$.
Theorem. Resolution is sound and complete for refutation. In fact, if resolution derives a contradiction, then the statement logically entails a contradiction $\Sigma\vdash\perp\implies\Sigma\models\perp$ (soundness) and if a statement is contradictory, resolution admits a refutation (completeness) $\Sigma\models\perp\implies\Sigma\vdash\perp$.
Proof of soundness. Trivially obtained by the fact that resolution preserves the truth of clauses.
It is important to mention that in this case there is a finite number of possible resolution steps, which is bounded above by the number of possible combinations of literals (as there is a limit on the possible number of clauses that can be added). Therefore, resolution is guaranteed to find a contradiction if the statement is unsatisfiable. Furthermore, if no contradiction is found, the statement is satisfiable.
RESOLUTION REFUTATION IS A METHOD TO DECIDE ABOUT SATISFIABILITY IN PROPOSITIONAL LOGIC AND IS IN GENERAL MORE EFFICIENT THAN COMPUTING TRUTH TABLES.
Example
Problems
Note also that (i) resolution increases the set of clauses and (ii) it can increase the number of literals in the clauses. This creates problems of inefficiency when trying to detect unsatisfiable statements. Smarter selection of clauses can improve the convergence to refutation. Nevertheless, if a statement is satisfiable, you need to check ALL POSSIBLE RESOLUTION STEPS.

"Family defined as the co-residence and the organization by kinship are both integral in the development of the concept of the family. A co-residential group that makes up a household may share general survival goals and a residence, but may not fulfill the varied and sometimes ambiguous requirements for the definition of a family."
The traditional family structure in the United States is considered a family support system involving two married individuals providing care and stability for their biological offspring. However, this two-parent, nuclear family has become less prevalent, and alternative family forms have become more common. The family is created at birth and establishes ties across generations. Those generations, the extended family of aunts, uncles, grandparents, and cousins, can hold significant emotional and economic roles for the nuclear family.
Over time, the transtructure has had to adapt to very influential changes, including divorce and the introduction of single-parent families, teenage pregnancy and unwed mothers, and same-sex marriage, and increased interest in adoption. Social movements such as the feminist movement and the stay-at-home father have contributed to the creation of alternative family forms, generating new versions of the American family.
Nuclear families, also known as elementary or traditional families, consist of two parents (usually married or common law) and their children. Nuclear families may have one or more children who are biological or adopted, but the main idea is that the parents are raising their kids together in the family home. Even though nuclear families seem to be on the decline, 2016 U.S. Census data shows that 69% of children still live in nuclear families. Even though it doesn't always work out that way, to most people this is the ideal family environment to raise children in.
Nuclear families can be strong and successful, with both parents being great examples for their kids. These kids often have many advantages over other families with less, which can help them get ahead in life. However, like any family, nuclear families have their struggles to face. For example, if parents shut out grandparents and other extended family, chances are their support system will not be strong and getting through hard times can be challenging.
Single parent families consist of one parent with one or more kids. In these cases, the parent either never married, is widowed, or divorced. A paper by Ellwood, D.T., and Jencks, C. (2004) talks about how single-parent families have been on the rise since the 1960s when divorce rates started going up (and so did births happening out of wedlock). They suggest that these changes could be due to many different factors, from changing morals in society to increasing arguments over gender roles.
Being a single parent raising kids can be hard. It can also be hard being a kid when your parents are split up or if you grew up only knowing one parent. In this situation, families need to make the best of what they have and rely on each other for love and support.
While most people in the U.S. would identify nuclear families as being the 'traditional' family type, in different cultures extended families are much more common and have been around for hundreds of years. Extended families are families with two or more adults who are related through blood or marriage, usually along with children.

Childless families are families with two parents who cannot have or don't want kids. In the world of family types and dynamics, these families are often forgotten or left out (even though you can still have a family without children). In the past, growing up, getting married, and having children was the norm, but in today's world, more people are choosing to postpone having children or deciding not to have any.
