Stanley Kubrick is one of the great enigmatic directors of the 20th century. Who was this genius that produced such masterfully realized works of art such as "2001: A Space Odyssey," "A Clockwork Orange," or "Barry Lyndon"? This rarely seen documentary, shot by Kubrick's daughter, Vivian, documents some of the events of shooting the uneven, controversial horror flick "The Shining." It may not shed much light on the legendary director, but it does offer a glimpse of what he was like behind the scenes.
The beginning of the documentary (now on the video and DVD re-released versions of "The Shining") plays like a home movie with Vivian following Jack Nicholson into the bathroom while he brushes his teeth. We see Jack prepping himself for a scene where, as Jack Torrance, he tears through a door with an axe, pursuing his family, and taunting them with quotes from "Three Little Pigs." Then there is Kubrick, wearing a winter jacket, yelling cut during a scene where Danny (Danny Lloyd) hides inside a compartment from maniacal Jack. To me, it was a pleasure to hear this man speak with an ever-so-slight English accent (hardly a trace of his Bronx roots).
There are strong revelations for what must have been an arduous, long shoot for a horror movie. There is the sense that Kubrick is tough-as-nails on Shelley Duvall, always taunting her and acting totally unsympathetic to her mood swings (at one point, she pulls out strands of hair, showing them to Stanley whose only response is, "I have no sympathy for Shelley.") There is one tense scene where Shelley misses her cue when they yell action during a faux snowstorm scene and Stanley races frantically and argues with her vehemently.
Kubrick is apparently respectful of Jack and only suggests he acts wilder and meaner (I have heard reports of Jack being used for lighting tests when in fact a stand-in is ordinarily used). A scene shows Kubrick's mother seated at a table with Stanley and Jack as they discuss the constant script revisions from day to day. Naturally, Shelley is nowhere to be found. She does freely admit that she admired him for his tenacity and perfectionism, claiming to have learned more from him than from any other prior film production. Meanwhile, Jack concludes that working with Stanley is exciting for him as an actor because the director has his own agenda for making personal films, even if Jack does not always agree with him.
There are also brief, pointed interviews with Scatman Crothers (who of course played Halloran, the cook), shown weeping for joy as he mentions how beautiful the crew was to work with and how he saw Danny as his own child, and the tyke Danny Lloyd who mentions how he is smart and likes to make home movies with his less-than-receptive friends. Kubrick himself is not interviewed but it is fun to see him at work, especially when he devises a low-angle shot of Jack to enhance the tension of the scene where Jack tries to con Shelley into letting him out of a storage room.
"Making 'The Shining'" could have been longer and shed more light on the master director at work, but it is a fitting, exemplary documentary of a man whose impeccable sense of craft and direction exemplified his status as one of America's leading cinematic artists. Essential viewing for any film buff or aficionado of Kubrick.

How to watch Wednesday's Democratic presidential debate
Fifth debate takes place in Atlanta
by Kate Sullivan, CNN(CNN) - The fifth Democratic presidential primary debate takes place Wednesday night in Atlanta, and 10 candidates will take the stage to make their case to the American people.
The debate, hosted by MSNBC and The Washington Post, will take place in the shadow of televised impeachment hearings in Washington. Hours before the debate's start time, officials, including the U.S. ambassador to the European Union, publicly appeared before the House Intelligence Committee.
South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg enters debate night after emerging as the clear leader in the most recent CNN/Des Moines Register Iowa poll. Like Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who entered the October debate with momentum, Buttigieg could face more direct attacks from his opponents during Wednesday night's event given his increased standing in the race.
Since the last debate, three candidates have suspended their campaigns: former Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourke, Ohio Rep. Tim Ryan and Miramar, Florida, Mayor Wayne Messam. Former Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick also launched a late-entry presidential bid, and former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg is now considering getting into the race. These moves signal the Democratic primary race continues to be unsettled 75 days out from Iowa's first-in-the-nation caucuses.
What time is the debate?
The debate will air live at 9 p.m. ET on Wednesday from Tyler Perry Studios in Atlanta. It will run for two hours.
How can I watch it?
The debate will be broadcast exclusively on MSNBC and will also stream for free on MSNBC.com and washingtonpost.com, as well as on NBC News and The Washington Post's mobile apps, according to the Democratic National Committee. Audio of the debate will be available on SiriusXM Channel 118, and TuneIn.
Get ready for the debate all day on CNN.com and stay with us for real-time news, analysis and fact-checking during and after the debate. CNN will have live TV programming breaking down the biggest moments and story lines from the debate after it concludes.
Who is debating?
- Former Vice President Joe Biden
- New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker
- South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg
- Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard
- California Sen. Kamala Harris
- Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar
- Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders
- Businessman Tom Steyer
- Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren
- Businessman Andrew Yang
Who is moderating?
MSNBC's Rachel Maddow, Andrea Mitchell and Kristen Welker, as well as Washington Post White House reporter Ashley Parker, will serve as moderators.
Who didn't make the cut?
- Former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julián Castro
- Colorado Sen. Michael Bennet
- Montana Gov. Steve Bullock
- Former Maryland Rep. John Delaney
- Author Marianne Williamson
- Former Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick
- Former Pennsylvania Rep. Joe Sestak
How was the stage decided?
The DNC has progressively raised the qualifying thresholds for the primary Democratic debates that began in June. In order to make the November stage, candidates had to reach 3% in at least four DNC-approved national or early state polls or at least 5% in two polls of the early-voting states: Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina. Candidates also had to raise money from 165,000 separate donors, including a minimum of 600 donors each in at least 20 states or territories.
What happened at the last debate?
The party's fourth presidential debate, hosted by CNN and The New York Times, showcased the shifting dynamics of the Democratic primary. It was one of the first times Warren faced a barrage of critiques from her Democratic competitors. Biden, the other front-runner, stayed out of the fray for much of the event -- until a late clash with Sanders that featured the same one-on-one, progressive-against-moderate battle that has defined the 2016 Democratic contest. Moderate candidates like Buttigieg and Klobuchar pressed their progressive foes in direct and sometimes personal terms.
CNN's Eric Bradner, Dan Merica and Gregory Krieg contributed to this report.

GIRL 6 A film review by Joan Ellis Copyright 1996 Nebbadoon Syndicate
Spike Lee's "Girl 6" is an inexcusable bore. The producer/director has turned lazy. Don't look for a story; don't anticipate a laugh or a tear or a surprise; don't go. But do ask yourself how anything this thin and badly done could make it out of Lee's head, much less onto the multiplex screens.
Girl 6 (Theresa Randle) wants to be an actress. If you're going to build a movie on that shopworn notion, you better have fairy dust in your pocket. To pay the rent she takes a job as girl #6 in a phone-sex telephone bank. "O.K., that's a new one: what shall we do with it? Let's string together all the phone sex words and images we can muster and blow the audience away."
Mr. Lee, it seems, is unaware that mainstream America is bombarded daily in our multimedia culture with the words and images he finds so hilarious. Girl 6 sits in her cubicle responding to the "hear me, hit me, fix me" phone calls that come in from men who sneak their telephone pleasure. Mr. Lee seems gleeful in informing us that many of them are corporate executives. Wow. Really?
As added interest, he promotes Girl 6 to the rank of "Fantasy Caller." Same game, with the added freedom of working from home--the better to abandon yourself, you see.
We wait in vain for one of the phone calls to develop into an interesting subplot. A love story perhaps? A crime? Anything? No.
It's a little hard to tell whether Quentin Tarantino is playing himself or a fictional Hollywood hotshot of the month. Madonna once again enjoys assuming a disguise--this time, a small-time boss in the world of secondhand gratification. The marvelous Halle Berry is on hand, to no effect. The failure of the presence of these proven performers to ignite anything is just further proof that Lee forgot to build the fire.
The Spike Lee who captured pieces of American culture with such piercing precision in "Jungle Fever" and "Do The Right Thing" seems to have succumbed to the inevitable. There's an unattractive arrogance to thinking that millions of people will be interested in one long, rotten, hypocritical evening of telephone sex without any connective storyline. He even dares to imply a comparison to Meg Ryan's sublime coffee-shop orgasm in "When Harry Met Sally" without any of the sly humor to put it across.
Lee's assumption that this hodgepodge can grab an audience is astonishing. His callers count their fantasies in minutes, but he smothers us for almost two hours with his own. The inescapable conclusion is that he too has chosen the easy road to self-gratification. Don't let it be at your expense.

As part of GSoC’16 I’m working on Porting Comment Alter module to Drupal 8 under the mentorship of boobaa and czigor. This blog is an excerpt of the work which I did in the third week of the coding period of GSoC’16. The blogpost for the work done in the second week can be found here.
Since I was done with get_alterable_fields_function() last week, this week I started working on comment form alter. My mentors suggested me to port comment_alter_field_extra_fields()
function first, which would add pseudo fields on comment_form for these extra comment_alterable_fields before adding widgets for these fields on the comment_form to expose some control over this to the UI. It would allow sitebuilders to re-order all the comment fields and the comment_alterable_fields. Also this function adds one extra pseudo field on comment_display so as to render the parent entity field changes for the comment in any particular place decided by the sitebuilder.
Pseudo fields are simple display/form fields whose position can be controlled from the display settings of a particular entity type. An example of such a field is the core Links field on the node or comment entities. This allows us to add extra fields for a particular entity which can be reordered.
For more information related to pseudo fields, I would recommend looking at hook_entity_extra_field_info() and also I came across this article which was helpful to me. This commit implements hook_entity_extra_field_info()
.
There were some major changes from D7 to D8 which affected the port of this function.The most important thing was that in D7 we had separate comment types for all content types so it was relatively easy to attach the extra fields of that particular content type to the comment. In D8 however any comment type can be attached to any entity type so we cannot know what extra fields we need o attach to the comment. (See change records #2100015 and #2285633.)
So, in order to attach the extra comment_alterable_fields of the parent entity to its comment types, we need to loop through all the comment types attached to our parent entity (as we may have more than one). I had some problem getting the comment bundle information of the comment fields attached to the parent entity which I later found in the FieldStorageDefinitions
. Basically we wanted to know the comment bundle of the comment field attached to our parent entity but instead it was in FieldStorageDefinitions
. (See commit.)
By the end of the week I was able to implement hook_entity_extra_field_info(). Now I have extra fields in my comment_type _form and _display which I can drag around using the UI. My mentors have already reviewed the code for the work which I did during this week. If anyone is interested, my progress can be followed in my GitHub repo.

Additionally, included programming modules such as Visual Web Development, Agile Methods and Development. Course also included system design and development units like Information System Development, Object Oriented Analysis and Design, Database Design and others.


Getting Started Guide¶
This Getting started document will guide you through the first configuration and test of the q8 unit attached to a Qontrol motherboard.
The operations described in this guide require:
- a Qontrol controller (e.g. Q8iv or Q8)
- a Qontrol motherboard (e.g. BP8)
- the corresponding power supply (e.g. PS15KIT)
- a computer connected to the internet to let the system download the serial port USB drivers
- (optionally) a program for serial port communication (e.g. Teraterm for windows, CoolTerm for Mac Osx, Linux)
Connection of the unit¶
This procedure is valid for both the Q8 and the Q8iv products.
Insert the Q8iv (or any other compatible control unit) in one of the backplanes/motherboards (e.g. BP8):
In the Q8iV the 5 leds indicate (from the bottom): pwr, rx, tx, activity, err. In the Q8b the 3 leds indicate: pwr, activity, err
Connect the backplane (motherboard) unit to the computer using a cable/adapter with a USB mini b female plug at one of the two ends, like the one shown below:
Power the unit, using a compatible power supply (e.g. PS15KIT):
Al the side LEDs in the units should progressively turn on and off again leaving only the bottom green LEDs on, while the units are in idle.
Whole system:
Configuration of the serial communication¶
Controlling the unit using the provided Qontrol API serial communication commands¶
This API provides also a command line interface for direct communication with the Qontrol unit. The program is called run_interactive_shell(). To run it follow these steps: start python, import qontrol and run the interactive shell.
- ::
$ python
>>> import qontrol
>>> qontrol.run_interactive_shell()
Select your controller from the list of available serial devices and you are ready to go.
Controlling the unit using a serial communication software¶
In addition, serial communication software in any operating system (OS) can be used to control the units, some examples:
- Teraterm (Windows)
- CoolTerm (Mac)
- Terminal/Command line (Linux)
General Configuration settings.
Serial parameters settings :
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Data bits | 8 |
| Stop bit | 1 |
| Par. check | None |
| Flow ctrl. | None |
| Baud rate | 115200 |
Windows Teraterm Configuration
Mac OSX CoolTerm Configuration
Open a Terminal
check the name of the device with the command:
ls /dev/tty.usb*
Example of output: /dev/tty.usbserial-FT31EUVZ
the name “FT31EUVZ” identifies the connection to the Qontrol motherboard
Open CoolTerm and select options
- Select the correct device and the proper settings
- Open CoolTerm and select the appropriate options
- Select Ok and start typing the commands
Linux Command Line
In Linux is also possible to use terminal software such as minicorn
Check the name of the device
ls /dev/tty.usb*
Serial ports devices will appear as /dev/ttyS#
To change the serial port configuration use the command ‘ssty’, use the command “man stty” for specific operation details
Example to set the Baudrate to 115200 and odd parity stty -F /dev/ttyS# 115200 parodd
Issue Comands using the “echo” command echo ‘vipall?’ > /dev/ttyusb#
Read the data with cat: cat /dev/ttyusb#
Main commands and error codes¶
From the serial interface you can always obtain te list of commands by typing:
- ::
- > help
CORE COMMAND SET
- Set voltage of a specific “port” to “value” (V) -> v[port]=[value]
- Set current of a specific “port” to “value” (mA) -> i[port]=[value]
- Read voltage of a specific “port” (V) - > v[port]?
- Read current of a specific “port” (mA) - > i[port]?
- Read voltage current and power on all the ports (V, mA, mW)-> vipall?
- Set max voltage limit (V) to a “value” of a specific “port” -> vmax[port]=[value]
- Set max current limit (mA) to a “value” of a specific “port” -> imax[port]=[value]
| Error Code | Description |
|---|---|
| 00 | Unknown error |
| 01 | Overvoltage |
| 02 | Overcurrent |
| 03 | Power error |
| 04 | Calibration error |
| 10 | Unrecognised command |
| 11 | Unrecognised parameter |
| 12 | Unrecognised port |
| 13 | Operation forbidden |
| 14:00 | Instruction buffer overflow |
| 14:01 | Single instruction overflow |
| 15:X0 | Serial overflow detected |
| 15:X1 | Serial framing error detected |
| 16 | Internal software error |
Frequently asked questions (FAQ) and basic troubleshooting¶
** Which operating systems are supported? **
Our Python API can be used on any modern OS. All of them that can control a serial port can also use our products in any other language, if you are willing to program this yourself.
** Why does the backplane error light turn on when drivers are activated?**
The LSD is inserted the wrong way around!
Running the example code¶
The example code example.py can be found in the intallation directory of qontrol.py.
To run it sympy type:
$ python example.py
The example will set some voltages on your device so it is important to check that no sensitive equipment is connected when running it.
If the example code runs successfully, the lights on your qontroller will flash as commands are transmitted, and output channels are energised. The qontroller’s device ID will be read out, as well as its number of channels. The voltage on each channel will be briefly set to the channel’s number, then return to zero (e.g. channel 3 is set to 3 V). The current of each channel will be read out. Next, we’ll take a look at exactly what’s inside.
API basics¶
First, we read in the qontrol.py API with an import call.
import qontrol
To initialise an output device (or daisy-chain), like a Q8iv, first use a definition like
q = qontrol.QXOutput(serial_port_name = "COM1")
where q is our qontroller object, which stores information about the hardware, such as its device ID (q.device_id) and number of channels (q.n_chs), and handles all communications and commands. COM1 is an example of what the connected serial port name might be on Windows.
Port numbers greater than 10 must be written like
//./COM42.
On Mac or Linux, this will look something like
/dev/tty.usbserial-FT123ABC.
When your code is done with the hardware, it’s good practice to close the connection with a call to
q.close()
Controlling outputs, and reading inputs is easy.
Writing to the qontroller object’s v or i arrays (using standard Python array indexing) sets the output for channel with that index.
Reading from those arrays reads the input values back from the hardware. For example, we can set the voltage on output channel 3 to 4.5V and read back the current (in mA) assigning the value to the variable “measured_current” with the code:
q.v[3] = 4.5
measured_current = q.i[3]
We can do bulk changes to channels using slices.
q.v[2:5] = 4.5
measured_current = q.i[2:5]
The slice character in Python, :, means either “everything between two indices” (e.g. v[2:5]), “everything from the beginning until an index” (e.g. v[:5]), or “everything from an index until the end” (e.g. v[2:]).

The Domain Name System (DNS) is the phonebook of the Internet. When users type domain names such as ‘google.com’ or ‘nytimes.com’ into web browsers, DNS is responsible for finding the correct IP address for those sites. Browsers then use those addresses to communicate with origin servers or CDN edge servers to access website information. This all happens thanks to DNS servers: machines dedicated to answering DNS queries. But, what is a server? A server is a device or program dedicated to providing services to other programs, referred to as ‘clients’. DNS clients, which are built into most modern desktop and mobile operating systems, enable web browsers to interact with DNS servers.
In a typical DNS query without any caching, there are four servers that work together to deliver an IP address to the client: recursive resolvers, root nameservers, TLD nameservers, and authoritative nameservers. The DNS recursor (which is also referred to as the DNS resolver) is a server that receives the query from the DNS client, and then interacts with other DNS servers to hunt down the correct IP. Once the resolver receives the request from the client, the resolver then actually behaves as a client itself, querying the other three types of DNS servers in search of the right IP.
First the resolver queries the root nameserver. The root server is the first step in translating (resolving) human-readable domain names into IP addresses. The root server then responds to the resolver with the address of a Top Level Domain (TLD) DNS server (such as .com or .net) that stores the information for its domains. Next the resolver queries the TLD server. The TLD server responds with the IP address of the domain’s authoritative nameserver. The recursor then queries the authoritative nameserver, which will respond with the IP address of the origin server..
DNS servers can fail for multiple reasons, such as power outages, cyberattacks, and hardware malfunctions. In the early days of the Internet, DNS server outages could have a relatively large impact. Thankfully, today there is a lot of redundancy built into DNS. For example, there are many instances of the root DNS servers and TLD nameservers, and most ISPs have backup recursive resolvers for their users.

I had gotten this stuff about a month ago, but had to wait until I got the pipe, the lighter, and had tried LSD first. I decided on this weekend. My friend, his wife and kid and I went up to some town nearby, that's strangely like some West Virginian town with railroad, sunk down between hills and a dirty river running past. Everything else around is going suburban fast if it hasn't already. My friend was depressed that day and has been for months, and has tried all the medications and treatments possible.  The sad town itself and an oppressive gray sky were extra elements, the sum of which made me doubt I would want to try this stuff later in the day.
 We were going to sleep but neither of us did. I figured I might as well. I got out my scale and other materials and tried to weigh. My scale, although it should be accurate to .1g, seems to not register at very low amounts. So I started with a grain the size of a fleck of salt. My friend helped me light it and the smoke appeared. Nothing happened. We put in a little more. Still nothing. Finally I put in a chunk, something the size of a very small bread crumb. I smoked that. I looked at my friend and there were LSD visual shivers.
I remember saying 'holy shit'. I felt like I was being pushed to the back of some corner of my mind. I couldn't think anything. There was a moment when I felt my skin and heart seething under me, running fast. There was a low hum. Occasionally my friend said something, but I couldn't reply. I tried to fixed my attention to the light fixture above me. Again, the visual shivers, and at some point I could lean forward. Shortly after, I stood up. I remember saying 'I'm not sure what the point of that was'.
I was walking, pacing, still extremly affected but coming down fast. My thinking was clear. I was amazed at the speed of the comedown, and the smoothness of it.
My friend was nervous. He's experienced with stuff like this, but on medication now. We read that MAOIs would enhance this stuff. He wanted to try. He tried a little, felt the rush, then tried more. He closed his eyes. When he came back, he said 'I'm in a lot of trouble'. He began to talk about his depression in much the same langauge that he has these last months. He said at first 'I'd try that again' then later 'I don't think I need to do that again'. The next evening he said he might like to do it again. He compared it to nitrous in type.
I didn't have an experience of the void that people have spoken of. Or maybe I just smoked too much and it scrambled things such that I couldn't concentrate (if that's the right word). Next time I do it, I'll have people be silent, and maybe have something to focus on visually, something that fills my entire vision, instead of a bare white ceiling and light fixture. Or I'll close my eyes.

Python 3.9¶
Python 3.9.0 (final) was released on the 5th October 2020. The Features for 3.9 are defined in PEP 596 and a detailed description of the changes can be found in What’s New in Python 3.9
Features |
Status |
|
Fast access to module state from methods of C extension types |
Not relevant |
|
Union operators added to dict |
Complete [1] |
|
Type hinting generics in standard collections |
||
Flexible function and variable annotations |
||
CPython adopts an annual release cycle. Instead of annual, aiming for two month release cycle |
Not relevant |
|
Relaxed grammar restrictions on decorators |
||
The IANA Time Zone Database is now present in the standard library in the zoneinfo module |
||
String methods to remove prefixes and suffixes |
||
CPython now uses a new parser based on PEG |
Not relevant |
Other Language Changes:
__import__() now raises ImportError instead of ValueError |
Complete |
Python now gets the absolute path of the script filename specified on the command line (ex: python3 script.py): the __file__ attribute of the __main__ module became an absolute path, rather than a relative path |
|
By default, for best performance, the errors argument is only checked at the first encoding/decoding error and the encoding argument is sometimes ignored for empty strings |
|
“”.replace(“”, s, n) now returns s instead of an empty string for all non-zero n. It is now consistent with “”.replace(“”, s) |
|
Any valid expression can now be used as a decorator. Previously, the grammar was much more restrictive |
|
Parallel running of aclose() / asend() / athrow() is now prohibited, and ag_running now reflects the actual running status of the async generator |
|
Unexpected errors in calling the __iter__ method are no longer masked by TypeError in the in operator and functions contains(), indexOf() and countOf() of the operator module |
|
Unparenthesized lambda expressions can no longer be the expression part in an if clause in comprehensions and generator expressions |
Changes to built-in modules:
Due to significant security concerns, the reuse_address parameter of asyncio.loop.create_datagram_endpoint() is no longer supported |
|
Added a new coroutine shutdown_default_executor() that schedules a shutdown for the default executor that waits on the ThreadPoolExecutor to finish closing. Also, asyncio.run() has been updated to use the new coroutine. |
|
Added asyncio.PidfdChildWatcher, a Linux-specific child watcher implementation that polls process file descriptors |
|
added a new coroutine asyncio.to_thread() |
|
When cancelling the task due to a timeout, asyncio.wait_for() will now wait until the cancellation is complete also in the case when timeout is <= 0, like it does with positive timeouts |
|
asyncio now raises TyperError when calling incompatible methods with an ssl.SSLSocket socket |
|
Garbage collection does not block on resurrected objects |
|
Added a new function gc.is_finalized() to check if an object has been finalized by the garbage collector |
|
Expanded the math.gcd() function to handle multiple arguments. Formerly, it only supported two arguments |
|
Added math.lcm(): return the least common multiple of specified arguments |
|
Added math.nextafter(): return the next floating-point value after x towards y |
|
Added math.ulp(): return the value of the least significant bit of a float |
|
Exposed the Linux-specific os.pidfd_open() and os.P_PIDFD |
|
The os.unsetenv() function is now also available on Windows |
Complete |
The os.putenv() and os.unsetenv() functions are now always available |
Complete |
Added os.waitstatus_to_exitcode() function: convert a wait status to an exit code |
|
Added a new random.Random.randbytes method: generate random bytes |
|
Added a new sys.platlibdir attribute: name of the platform-specific library directory |
|
Previously, sys.stderr was block-buffered when non-interactive. Now stderr defaults to always being line-buffered |

The tile of each Public Room shows a synthetic visualisation of its
discussion by using colour, height and width as visual metaphors.
-
The colour of the tile goes from blue (only few visits by users, i.e.
a "cold" topic) to red (many visits by users, i.e. a "hot" topic). The
colour is picked from a blue-to-red gradient proportionally to the
number of visits.
-
The width of a tile also can have only two values, i.e. narrow
(strict) or wide (large) depending on the number of distinct datalets
that are used.
-
To set the height, the median of the number of comments for all the
rooms is calculated, and the rooms about the median are "tall" and
those below are "short". The same happes for the width with respect to
the number of distinct datalets.

PLANET SICK-BOY: http://www.sick-boy.com
Realizing that the last time he was humorous was when he made a movie set in the snow, former funnyman Chevy Chase (National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation) returns to winter pics with Snow Day, the latest film produced under television's Nickelodeon moniker. Hilarity does not ensue – details at 11:00.
Luckily, Chase is only involved in one of the four prongs of Day's script. He plays Tom Brandston, a wacky TV weatherman tired of playing second fiddle to Syracuse, New York's meteorological deity, Chad Symmons (John Schneider, The Dukes of Hazzard). Tom is serious about his craft, while smarmy Chad never even went to meteorologist school. Like a college education is a requirement for predicting the weather these days.
 The Brandstons have three kids, and each fits the basic parameters for the typical Hollywood family. There's fifteen-year-old Hal (Mark Webber, Drive Me Crazy), the dorky teen on the brink of adulthood. Then there's ten-year-old Natalie (Zena Grey, The Bone Collector), the sassy middle kid that acts more adult than the actual adults. And then there's Randy (Connor Matheus), the youngest Brandston, who is able to steal all of his scenes despite barely being able to sputter out his lines.
When a record snowfall hits upstate New York, each character is affected in ways that will forever change the way they approach life. Okay, it's not that mind-blowing at all. Tom sees the storm as his big chance to show everyone that he's the best darn weatherman in the godforsaken city. Laura realizes the importance of her family after she is trapped at home all day with Randy the bastard. Hal uses the day off to try to woo school sexpot Claire (Emmanuelle Chriqui, Detroit Rock City) away from bad-boy jock Chuck Wheeler (David Paetkau, Disturbing Behavior). And charming Natalie tries to settle the score with a demonic snowplow driver called Snowplowman (Chris Elliott, There's Something About Mary).
The kids will love the flatulence jokes and, Dads, keep an eye peeled for Claire's see-through t-shirt – it's the most nipple I've seen in a PG film. The more hip adults in the audience may enjoy Iggy Pop (The Crow: City of Angels), who plays the proprietor of the town's ice skating rink, where he punishes customers with lethargic Al Martino songs. Did he call his agent after seeing Henry Rollins in Jack Frost and say `Get me in a kids' movie with snow'?
But most of the good parts have to do with Snowplowman. He's got teeth like an Englishman, a bird named Trudy, a plow called `Darling Clementine' and tire chains made from the braces of kids that he's run over. Like Natalie says, `It's a snow day – anything can happen.' Such as the fact that Hal narrates the film despite only being in twenty-five percent of it.
Snow Day was made by the creative team that brought Kablam! to the small screen. Director Chris Koch and writers Will McRobb and Chris Viscardi are all alumnus of the popular sketch comedy show and Day is the feature film debut for all three filmmakers. While it's not a particularly bad film, it's better than the recent offerings from the sketch comedy dinosaur Saturday Night Live. Which brings us back to Mr. Chase, who, once again, shows that he's as funny as a can of wadded beef.
