JOSH 6:1 (And Jericho shutteth itself up, and is shut up, because of the presence of the sons of Israel -- none going out, and none coming in;) JOSH 6:2 And Jehovah saith unto Joshua, `See, I have given into thy hand Jericho and its king -- mighty ones of valour, JOSH 6:3 and ye have compassed the city -- all the men of battle -- going round the city once; thus thou dost six days; JOSH 6:4 and seven priests do bear seven trumpets of the jubilee before the ark, and on the seventh day ye compass the city seven times, and the priests blow with the trumpets, JOSH 6:5 and it hath been, in the prolongation of the horn of the jubilee, in your hearing the voice of the trumpet, all the people shout -- a great shout, and the wall of the city hath fallen under it, and the people have gone up, each over-against him. JOSH 6:6 And Joshua son of Nun calleth unto the priests, and saith unto them, `Bear ye the ark of the covenant, and seven priests do bear seven trumpets of the jubilee before the ark of Jehovah; JOSH 6:7 and He said unto the people, `Pass over, and compass the city, and he who is armed doth pass over before the ark of Jehovah. JOSH 6:8 And it cometh to pass, when Joshua speaketh unto the people, that the seven priests bearing seven trumpets of the jubilee before Jehovah have passed over and blown with the trumpets, and the ark of the covenant of Jehovah is going after them; JOSH 6:9 and he who is armed is going before the priests blowing the trumpets, and he who is gathering up is going after the ark, going on and blowing with the trumpets; JOSH 6:10 and the people hath Joshua commanded, saying, `Ye do not shout, nor cause your voice to be heard, nor doth there go out from your mouth a word, till the day of my saying unto you, Shout ye -- then ye have shouted. JOSH 6:11 And the ark of Jehovah doth compass the city, going round once, and they come into the camp, and lodge in the camp. JOSH 6:12 And Joshua riseth early in the morning, and the priests bear the ark of Jehovah, JOSH 6:13 and seven priests bearing seven trumpets of the jubilee before the ark of Jehovah are walking, going on, and they have blown with the trumpets -- and he who is armed is going before them, and he who is gathering up is going behind the ark of Jehovah -- going on and blowing with the trumpets. JOSH 6:14 And they compass the city on the second day once, and turn back to the camp; thus they have done six days. JOSH 6:15 And it cometh to pass, on the seventh day, that they rise early, at the ascending of the dawn, and compass the city, according to this manner, seven times; (only, on that day they have compassed the city seven times); JOSH 6:16 and it cometh to pass, at the seventh time, the priests have blown with the trumpets, and Joshua saith unto the people, `Shout ye, for Jehovah hath given to you the city; JOSH 6:17 and the city hath been devoted, it and all that `isin it, to Jehovah; only Rahab the harlot doth live, she and all who `arewith her in the house, for she hid the messengers whom we sent; JOSH 6:18 and surely ye have kept from the devoted thing, lest ye devote `yourselves', and have taken from the devoted thing, and have made the camp of Israel become a devoted thing, and have troubled it; JOSH 6:19 and all the silver and gold, and vessels of brass and iron, holy they `areto Jehovah; into the treasury of Jehovah they come.' JOSH 6:20 And the people shout, and blow with the trumpets, and it cometh to pass when the people hear the voice of the trumpet, that the people shout -- a great shout, and the wall falleth under it, and the people goeth up into the city, each over-against him, and they capture the city; JOSH 6:21 and they devote all that `isin the city, from man even unto woman, from young even unto aged, even unto ox, and sheep, and ass, by the mouth of the sword. JOSH 6:22 And to the two men who are spying the land Joshua said, `Go into the house of the woman, the harlot, and bring out thence the woman, and all whom she hath, as ye have sworn to her. JOSH 6:23 And the young man, the spies, go in and bring out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all whom she hath; yea, all her families they have brought out, and place them at the outside of the camp of Israel. JOSH 6:24 And the city they have burnt with fire, and all that `isin it; only, the silver and the gold, and the vessels of brass, and of iron, they have given `tothe treasury of the house of Jehovah; JOSH 6:25 and Rahab the harlot, and the house of her father, and all whom she hath, hath Joshua kept alive; and she dwelleth in the midst of Israel unto this day, for she hid the messengers whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho. JOSH 6:26 And Joshua adjureth `themat that time, saying, `Cursed `isthe man before Jehovah who raiseth up and hath built this city, `evenJericho; in his first-born he doth lay its foundation, and in his youngest he doth set up its doors;' JOSH 6:27 and Jehovah is with Joshua, and his fame is in all the land.

Gina Haspel becomes 1st female CIA director after being sworn-in
LANGLEY, Va. - (AP) — New CIA Director Gina Haspel pledged to send more spies into the field during her swearing-in Monday as President Donald Trump offered up praise for the rank-and-file, who felt snubbed during his first visit to the headquarters of the premier U.S. intelligence agency.
"We must learn from the past, but we cannot dwell in the past," said Haspel, whose ascent from undercover operative to the top job was challenged because of her role in a program to harshly detain and interrogate terror suspects after 9/11.
"We must constantly learn, adjust, improve and strive to be better. We demand it of ourselves and America deserves nothing less," she said, drawing loud applause from her co-workers assembled inside the headquarters at Langley, in northern Virginia.
Haspel, 61, succeeds Mike Pompeo, whom Trump tapped to become secretary of state. Pompeo was present at the swearing-in and the oath was administered by Vice President Mike Pence.
Critics have said Haspel's role in the non-banned program should have disqualified her from becoming CIA director, although she has vowed not to restart it. Her supporters cited her three decades of experience at the spy agency both domestically and at many posts abroad.
Haspel, who has spent 33 years with the CIA, pledged to boost foreign language proficiency, strengthen the CIA's partnerships with intelligence agencies in the U.S. and abroad and deploy more officers to the field. She said the CIA also needed to focus on strategic threats to U.S. national security as well as the ongoing one from global terrorism.
As the first female CIA director, Haspel said she was indebted to female intelligence officers who blazed the trail for women in the field. "I stand on the shoulders of heroines who never sought public acclaim, but served as inspirations to the generations that came after them," she said.
She also referenced her rocky confirmation during which lawmakers had called for her mostly classified past career to be open to public scrutiny.
"It has been nearly 50 years since an operations officer rose up through the ranks to become the director, and after the experience of the last two months, I think I know why that is," Haspel joked.
Trump said she showed courage during the Senate confirmation process in the face of "very negative politics."
The president struck a different tone than on his previous visit to CIA headquarters. He hailed the agency rank-and-file, calling them the "most elite intelligence professionals on the planet" and promised them the "the tools, the resources and the support they need."
When Trump visited the CIA headquarters in January 2017, one day after taking office, it was on the back of his repeated criticisms of the U.S. intelligence community over its conclusion that Russian had interfered in the presidential election.
That day, many of his remarks were focused on settling scores with the media. His comments raised the ire of former intelligence officials because he spoke in front of a wall marked with stars representing fallen CIA officers, which was viewed as disrespectful.
This year, he paid tribute to the lost lives, saying "their stories of service and sacrifice and daring will live for all time."
Only hours before Trump visited CIA headquarters, he was promoting criticism of former CIA Director John Brennan. He suggested Brennan was to blame for the investigation into possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.
On Twitter, Trump referenced comments from conservative commentator Dan Bongino on "Fox and Friends," which argued that Brennan "started this entire debacle." Bongino, a former Secret Service agent, also said Brennan had "disgraced the intelligence community."
Brennan became the agency's director in 2013 under President Barack Obama and served until January 2017. He has been a vocal critic of Trump.
On Sunday, Brennan warned Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and House Speaker Paul Ryan, tweeting: "If Mr. Trump continues along this disastrous path, you will bear major responsibility for the harm done to our democracy. You do a great disservice to our Nation & the Republican Party if you continue to enable Mr. Trump's self-serving actions."

Two major computer-related professional organizations have student chapters at Murray: Association of Computing Machinery (ACM) and the Association of Information Technology Professionals (AITP). Please visit their web sites for current activities and enrollment information.
Association of Computing Machinery (ACM)
This organization draws most of its students from the Computer Science discipline. They elect their own officers and schedule meetings almost every month. Whenever possible, the officers arrange for tours of companies in the Western Kentucky area. They have also visited several high-tech companies in the Huntsville, AL, area. A major activity of ACM is to hold the regional programming competition in Murray each October. Teams from several Universities in this region participate in the intense day-long affair. The group's current faculty advisor is Dr. Matthew Tennyson (see contact page).
Association Of Information Technology (AITP)
Most of the Computer Information Students choose to participate in this club. Like the ACM, AITP also elects its officers each year who plan the activities for the year. The club meets at least once a month formally and arranges for other activities for that month. They have participated in homecoming parades, trips to attend chapter meetings at Nashville (second Thursdays), tours of area IT facilities, regional and National Conferences and several fund raising activities to help pay for all the trips. Student members are eligible for several scholarships from the Foundation for IT Education Scholarship. The group is advised by Dr. Victor Raj (see contact page).
Women in Computing (WIC)
The Women in Computing club grew out of the felt need for a place where women interested in computing could meet and discuss items of interest to them while keeping the focus on technology. The club was started by Dr. Brenda Wilson in 2008 when her research identified that the type of problems that women liked to solve was in many ways different from their male counterparts. Projects and assignments needed to be different to keep their interest in computing alive. Dr. Wilson has worked hard in her own courses to make this a reality. The club, under the leadership of Dr. Wilson, has hosted two conferences for women in Kentucky and Tennessee (2010 and 2012). Meeting frequency for WIC varies. The group is advised by (looking for sponsor).

Venezuela is a catastrophe, as needlessly so as it was predictable. And it was predicted, all too thoroughly, by Nobel Prize-winning economist F.A. Hayek.
Hayek is truly at his best in the seventh chapter of The Road to Serfdom, "Economic Control and Totalitarianism." In past chapters, he has rationalized moderate state intervention in the economy. But here, we see him destroy the notion that economic control is not directly linked to the rise of tyranny and the loss of individual liberty.
His arguments are so convincing, in part, because he highlights the indisputable fact that everything in our lives is tied to economics.
Rule of Experts
The impact that the field of economics has on our daily lives is not easily recognized by the majority of people. Preoccupied with our immediate needs and daily tasks, the state of the economy not only seems disconnected from our lives, it feels almost completely irrelevant.
And since something as complex as the national economy is usually left to the great "experts" to decide, many also assume that it is an issue completely out of their control. This presumption is something economic planners rely on to maintain their authority.
But economics is intrinsically connected to almost every single aspect of our lives. From the clothes we wear, to the food we eat, to our jobs and our education: economics is in all things. And without economic freedom, there can be no liberty. Period.
Anyone having any doubts that economic control will necessarily lead to tyranny and oppression, need only look to Venezuela.
Why Detest Commercial Freedom?
It has always been peculiar to me that socialists believe so fervently in social freedom and yet detest economic liberty. This is why many proponents of socialism and other forms of state control will advocate for economic restrictions, without a concern for civil liberties. They believe them to be separate entities, each existing without impacting the other.
But once economic control has been seized by the government, the stripping of our individual rights will soon follow. And today, we have the unfortunate opportunity of witnessing a once prosperous country completely succumb to the tragedy of a controlled economy.
The situation in Venezuela has become so dire, it would fit perfectly into the plot of any dystopian novel. What started as an economic crisis has now escalated to a humanitarian nightmare of which there appears to be no end in sight.
Venezuela once housed the world's most abundant oil reserves, which its national economy relied on heavily. In fact, these reserves were responsible for 95 percent of all export earnings. At its height, the country was capable of producing 3.5 million barrels of oil per day. But after Chavez came to power and an oil worker strike ensued, the leader decided to fire those on strike and instead, bring in workers who were loyal to his government.
Unfortunately, this takeover of the country's primary source of wealth meant that those experienced in the field were now pushed out, and replaced with inexperienced workers. And after years of continued mismanagement and poor decision-making at the hand of the state, the oil output began declining significantly.
As of earlier this year, the country was down to producing around 1.7 barrels of oil each day, but its continued decline is inevitable.
According to the logic held by those who refuse to acknowledge the connection between economic liberties and civil liberties, this situation should not have had an effect on the day to day lives of Venezuelans. But this is simply not the case.
As Hayek warned:
Economic planning would not affect merely those of our marginal needs that we have in mind when we speak contemptuously about the merely economic. It would, in effect, mean that we as individuals should no longer be allowed to decide what we regard as marginal.
The authority directing all economic activity would control not merely the part of our lives which is concerned with inferior things; it would control the allocation of the limited means for all our ends. And whoever controls all economic activity controls the means for all our ends and must therefore decide which are to be satisfied and which not. This is really the crux of the matter.
And this is exactly what has happened in Venezuela.
As the economic situation worsened, the residents lost control over their own lives. Since electricity is now scarce, the government is in control of determining where its use is directed. But this doesn't merely mean residents will be left sitting at home in the dark. It meant that places of business would also have to close, sometimes without notice.
One vendor told of his frustration when he was trying to run a consumer's debit card as payment. Since the entire country is subject to a loss of power when the state deems it necessary, the electricity went out right as he tried to process the payment. Of course, he was unable to make that transaction which resulted in a loss of money and the consumer was unable to obtain what they needed.
Without the freedom to work, there is no money to be made and no economic prosperity to be had.
But that is not where the chaos ends.
Controlling Economic Lives
Food and necessities, like toilet paper, are not only in short supply; they are also completely under state control. Those wanting to acquire these items must wake up long before the sun has risen and stand in long lines. While waiting in these lines, these "consumers," if you can even still call them that, are sitting ducks for thieves.
It has become common for thugs and others with malicious intent to hold people at gunpoint and rob them of whatever wealth they have left. Last year, one man was killed in line in an attempt to guard his cellphone.
Meanwhile, as he lay dying, the line did not break, because to lose your place in line, even to attend to the wounded, meant that you may not get to feed your family. But waiting in these lines does not mean you will receive what you need, or what the state thinks you need. Many times Venezuelans will spend their whole day in line only to discover that the store is completely out of supplies.
For frustrated citizens who want to change things or at least let their opinion be heard, free speech has been all but decimated. Any vocal opposition against the state and you might find yourself in jail cell, where you are unable to help anyone.
This catastrophe has even spread to hospitals. Since water and electricity are scarce, hospitals have been unable to sterilize equipment or even wash the bloody sheets from surgical beds. Infant mortality rates have skyrocketed, because children being born under these unsanitary conditions, and with no access to food have such a low chance at survival.
And as horrific as each of these examples are, the situation grows worse by the day as individuals continue to be stripped both of their rights and their ability to choose.
Meanwhile, President Maduro continues to praise socialism and demonize free market capitalism. He has even said that, "Venezuela must deepen socialism to improve the economy." He has even denied foreign aid from humanitarians aligned with capitalist countries.
But of course, Maduro himself is not suffering as his people are. Prior to Castro's death, he even spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on an extravagant birthday party in celebration of one of the cruelest dictators in modern history.
As Hayek says, "And whoever has sole control of the means must also determine which ends are to be served," And Maduro is serving no ends save his own.
Free Markets are Liberation
So many who fall prey to the concept of a planned economy believe that it will liberate individuals from the mundane task of having to choose. Forgetting, that it is our right to choose that makes us free in the first place.
"Our freedom of choice in a competitive society rests on the fact that, if one person refuses to satisfy our wishes, we can turn to another…And if one way of achieving our ends proves too expensive for us, we are free to try other ways." Hayek aptly says. And he is correct. In Venezuela, citizens cannot simply choose to buy toilet paper from a different vendor instead of having to wait in a line.
When the government took control in the wake of economic tragedy, the power to choose was given to the state. And the state does not care which brand of toilet paper you use or what price point you are comfortable paying. It does not care what medicine is vital in order for you to function. It chooses based on its own set of blanket value scales in which everyone is equal simply because everyone is equally let unsatisfied.
And there is almost nothing the people can do about it, making the situation far worse because as Hayek also states, "Nothing makes conditions more unbearable than the knowledge that no effort of ours can change them."
What is worse, is that proponents of socialism praise this lack of choice as liberating. Now that the state has decided when, where, and at what cost something can be purchased, individuals have been relieved of this heavy burden. Hayek describes these types of people by saying:
But few want to be relieved through having the choice made for them by others. People just wish that the choice should not be necessary at all. And they are only too ready to believe that the choice is not really necessary, that it is imposed upon them merely by the particular economic system under which we live. What they resent is, in truth, that there is an economic problem.
And that is exactly what befell Venezuela: a devastating economic problem. And this problem was used as a vessel to suppress the freedom and choice of the individual in the name of a planned economy.
So for those who would still like to believe that economic factors are separate from individual liberty, Hayek says:
Economic values are less important to us than many things precisely because in economic matters we are free to decide what to us is more, and what less, important.

Developer Program and API
This TWiT site is a departure from previous TWiT web sites and from almost any other site you've ever visited. Instead of building a traditional web site, our amazing developers at Four Kitchens created a headless Drupal backend with a rich ReSTful API. This site is but one consumer of the API. Other consumers of the API include third-party fan-made apps and maybe you, too!
We encourage everyone to play with our API and build new things. You can use any programming language and operating system you like, as long as you can make ReST calls and parse the JSON results. For more information on ReST start with this article from Dr. Dobbs. We have also done some episodes on Coding 101 on how to work with the TWiT API. (Look for episodes 74, 80, 81, 82, 83, and 91.)
The API documentation is available at Apiary. Before you begin using the TWiT API for real you'll need our approval. Begin by signing up for a free account at our 3scale page: https://twit-tv.3scale.net/ - they're the key masters. As soon as we see that you've requested API access and have a validated account, we'll grant access. However, approval is a manual process that may take a business day or two, so please be patient. (Please do not use a temporary, disposable email address or you will not be approved.) TWiT reserves the right to revoke keys if you start pulling too much data or misuse the data.
We've published some guidelines (such as not referring to your app as "official", not charging a subscription fee, and not naming your app just "TWiT"), but in general have at it. We'll start you with five GET requests a minute. If you need more or want to ask about the API, email email@example.com.
Have fun. We can't wait to see what you do!

Pleasantly surprised by the cleaning services and front desk assistance.
Had a couple of nights when we were bothered by extremely noisy neighbors (screaming and slamming doors at 1-3 AM)Please be more firm with these guests and if they don't comply to common sense rules regarding the respect for other people's sleeping hours, better ask them to leave.This is the reason why i would not recommend the place and i would look for another place to rest in my vacations.
The jacuzzi was not working and the staff were unsure of my query regarding it so I didn't get anywhere with it. A shame.
I find the BulgariaSki very helpful and will definetely use its services when booking future holidays in Bulgaria. Thank you very much for all your support and assistance, skiing this year was just perfect.
Best regards,
Katarina Puzic
Information that needs to be added to the website.
Guests need to be made aware that the gondola shuttle is an extra charge per day.
Also the spa and sauna facilities have to be paid for each time they are used.
The reception staff have very limited English.
The transfer from the airport to the resort is about three hours.
The resort is really good and I would like to visit there again.
Very impressed by the level of service & value for money. Will definitely book with you again. Thank you for organising the location I requested. The apartment is exactly as described.
Balcony could do with some basic plastic furniture.
Really nice apartment, with daily maintenance. Thrilled with kitchen equipment, finally a place where number of glasses isn't limited to number of people staying. Good location as well, quite but close to the gondola and tourist center.
The only comment I would have is that the SPA facilities at the Eagles Nest were found to be a chargeable extra which was not stated on the website or at the time of booking. But overall the experience was excellent, and we would defiantly look to use you again.
January 2011 was the second time I booked a hotel in Bulgaria though your website. Customer service was excellent, answered all my questions fast and helped me though many changes with the reservation. Thank you very much for all your support and be sure that next time we come to Bulgaria we will stay at the Eagle's Nest and book through bulgariaski.com.
The room is colder
Thanks for helping me put together a great holiday! Vladimir in Bansko was really nice and helped with changing rooms when the first one was not exactly what we payed for (but it was the hotel's mixup, not yours).
I have recommended the hotel and www.BulgariaSki.com to friends and will use it myself for the next trip.

When the World Trade Center was destroyed on Sept. 11, 2001, staffers at the city's largest public radio station struggled to report the news — not because their transmitter was atop one of the Twin Towers. But our colleagues at WNYC persevered and managed to keep New Yorkers informed throughout the horror and chaos of that terrible day and provide the first eyewitness accounts of the attack.
Now, WNYC's 9/11 broadcasts will be archived in the National Recording Registry. Every year since 2000, when the Registry was first established by an act of Congress, the Library of Congress picks 25 titles to be preserved for posterity.
The list usually includes what the LOC calls "sounds of history," and this year, those selections include the complete presidential speeches of President Franklin D. Roosevelt and WSB-Atlanta's coverage of Hank Aaron's 715th home run, vividly called by legendary sportscaster Milo Hamilton.
"When Aaron hit that homer, Hamilton's on-air exuberance matched that of those in the stands," said the Library of Congress in a statement. "Almost as well remembered as the 715th home run itself, Hamilton's announcing of the breaking of 'the record that would never be broken' is one of baseball's — and radio's — greatest ever calls."
The registry is intended, in part, to promote the LOC's preservation efforts. So how better to publicize itself than including the country's most beloved musicians? This year's inductees, as usual, include numerous celebrities and staples of classic rock. Entire albums newly added to the registry range from Duke Ellington's 1956 Ellington at Newport to 1997's Buena Vista Social Club to Linda Ronstadt's 1987 career milestone, Canciones de Mi Padre.
"Canciones de Mi Padre is an album I've always wanted to make because of my Mexican heritage," Ronstadt said in a statement. "I love the musical traditions that came with it. I always thought they were world-class songs. And I thought they were songs that the music could transcend the language barrier."
Other notable albums added to the 2022 registry include Alicia Keys' Songs in A Minor, Bonnie Raitt's Nick of Time and Wu-Tang Clan's Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers), from 1993. According to the Library of Congress, that album "would shape the sound of hardcore rap and reasserted the creative capacity of the East Coast rap scene. The group's individual artists would go on to produce affiliated projects that deepened the group's influence for decades in hip-hop."
But the list also dusts off more obscure, esoteric and offbeat contributions. The earliest recording — 1921's "Harlem Strut" — is the first known recording by jazz pianist James P. Johnson, who also composed "The Charleston." And the most recent addition, from nearly a century later, is a podcast episode: WTF with Marc Maron, from 2010, featured Robin Williams in a warm, rambling, and startlingly intimate conversation. Four years later, the comedian would be dead from suicide at age 63.
"The National Recording Registry reflects the diverse music and voices that have shaped our nation's history and culture through recorded sound," said Librarian of Congress Carla Hayden as part of the announcement. Along with several of the featured artists, she will be interviewed as part of the series, "The Sounds of America," from NPR's 1A, which focuses on this year's selections for the National Recording Registry.
Those selections follow, in chronological order:
1. "Harlem Strut" — James P. Johnson (1921)
2. Franklin D. Roosevelt: Complete Presidential Speeches (1933-1945)
3. "Walking the Floor Over You" — Ernest Tubb (1941) (single)
4. "On a Note of Triumph" (May 8, 1945)
5. "Jesus Gave Me Water" — The Soul Stirrers (1950) (single)
6. "Ellington at Newport" — Duke Ellington (1956) (album)
7. "We Insist! Max Roach's Freedom Now Suite" — Max Roach (1960) (album)
8. "The Christmas Song" — Nat King Cole (1961) (single)
9. "Tonight's the Night" — The Shirelles (1961) (album)
10. "Moon River" — Andy Williams (1962) (single)
11. "In C" — Terry Riley (1968) (album)
12. "It's a Small World" — The Disneyland Boys Choir (1964) (single)
13. "Reach Out, I'll Be There" — The Four Tops (1966) (single)
14. Hank Aaron's 715th Career Home Run (April 8, 1974)
15. "Bohemian Rhapsody" — Queen (1975) (single)
16. "Don't Stop Believin'" — Journey (1981) (single)
17. "Canciones de Mi Padre" — Linda Ronstadt (1987) (album)
18. "Nick of Time" — Bonnie Raitt (1989) (album)

Gerald Donald
The latest Arpanet album, 'Quantum Transposition', is about to be released and if the advance press is to be believed we can expect its style to follow on in the same experimental manner as Dopplereffekt 'Linear Accelerator' and Der Zyklus 'Biometry'. It's all a long way from the more accessible 'Cellular Phone', 'Pornoviewer' or 'Speak & Spell'. Certainly Gerald Donald has taken a quantum leap regarding his song writing template, so much so that he may not now even consider his compositions to have one. The Linear Accelerator album must have come as a real surprise to the fans. I was certainly taken aback but I quickly took it to heart because it was so the opposite of what I had expected that it made me even more curious about it than I might have been. It made me want to find a way in and now fits into my usual rotation of CDs with ease.
The fact that Donald has now taken three previously accessible projects into such a different musical realm shows how serious he is about following this line of thought and composition. What this means for the next Japanese Telecom is anyone's guess.
However, this should not have been such a surprise. With hindsight the most obvious flag to this new direction could be found way back in 1999 on the track 'Gesamtkunstwerk' on the compilation of the same name. This long brooding instrumental sounds nothing like anything that has gone before it and would not have sounded out of place 5 years later on Linear Accelerator. Presuming it had to be a new track it looks like Donald knew exactly where he was going next and this compilation was the perfect opportunity to wrap up his Dopplereffekt past and signal his own future direction. Of course he spent the next 4 - 5 years known for that early Dopplereffekt sound and even continued to produce it himself for a few more years. On the eve of the second Arpanet album it's worth pointing out that was it's predecessor 'Wireless Internet' (2002) that first signalled his future immersion in a specific scientific subject on his albums. But the music has not yet been affected by this transition. This probably was just that, a transitionary phase.
It's interesting that it took up to 7 or 8 years for Dopplereffekts music to reach a large audience, don't forget these tracks all originally came out in 1995. Most people only got to hear them in 1999 when the compilation came out and that was still years before the Electroclash scene really took off and every compilation had one of their tracks, if not two, alongside Miss Kitten and The Hacker et al. It's a real testament to how amazing those tracks are that they could stand up so well after such a long time and I believe still do and will continue to. One piece of trivia as far as compilations go was way back in 1997 The Advent included Porno Actress and Plastiphilia on their Konbination Phunk comp. But these are pacey re-edits by The Advent and the cut really is superior, so it's well worth tracking down. I can't help but wonder if some relationship developed between the two camps out of this as it was The Advents Kombination Research label that put out the Abstract Thought album.
The science lab artwork for the first 7" Superior Race(renamed as Master Organism for the comp) is so close to the posed shots of Linear Accelerator that it has to be an acknowledgement that this new sound was the fruition of what he had been aiming for at the beginning. All through Dopplereffekt there is a whole science theme, in the song titles, artwork and even their studio is referred to as Reactor Electronics Laboratory. There are other themes too like the more obvious facism and sex, but I guess the science has won out, for now. Taking the science theme to it's logical conclusion would mean that it would have to fully embrace the nature of the music and that is where we are today.
As far as collaborators on this stuff confusion reigns. If we go by the credits then Kim Karli is involved, to what extent beyond her vocals, we'll never know. William Scott may have been central or not, he's not credited at all on the Gigolo comp. Donald himself went through 2 pseudonyms as well, Rudolf Fisher and Rudolf Klorzeiger. If you look at the pictures of Kim Karli on the Dataphysix releases they don't match up with the girl pictured on the Gigolo comp, and she isn't credited here either, but To Nhan Le Thi is credited. At least this second girl does seem to match up with the one on the 'Linear Accelerator' cover, although no credits at all are listed here, not even a gratuitous Heinrich Muller!
Where next, can I see anymore clues? Well, I thought it was interesting that 'Linear Accelerator' got more accessible track by track. Most people would have sequenced it the opposite way, leaving that difficult 21 minute track till the end. It's telling that Gigolo picked the progressively more accessible second and third last tracks on the album for the 12". So maybe that means a move away from such an experimental sound. I don't think we'll ever see a return to the original sound either, but something in-between. I think by the way that that word might seem to have been over used by me in describing this music but I think it might be exactly the right one judging by the science themes. Gerald Donald might well see these tracks as experiments, the best examples of things he cooked up in his recording laboratory.

It was wintertime; the air was cold, the wind sharp, but indoors all was snug and well. Indoors lay the flower; it lay in its bulb, under earth and snow.
One day the rain fell; the drops trickled down through the snow blanket, down into the earth, and stirred against the bulb, telling it of the world of light up above. Soon a sunbeam, so slender and penetrating, bored through the snow, down to the bulb, and tapped on it.
«Come in,» said the Flower.
«That I can't do,» said the Sunbeam. «I'm not strong enough to open you up. I shall be very strong by summer.»
«When will it be summer?» asked the Flower, and repeated this every time a new sunbeam came down to it. But summer was far off; snow remained on the earth, and ice formed on the water in the streams every blessed night.
«How long this lasts! How long this lasts!» said the Flower. «I feel a tingling and tickling. I must stretch myself; I must extend myself. I must open up; I must come out and wave good morning to the summer; that will be a wonderful time!»
And the Flower stretched itself and extended itself against the thin shell that had been softened by the rain water, warmed by the blanket of earth and snow, and tapped upon by the Sunbeam. It burst forth beneath the snow, with a white and green bud on its green stalk, with narrow, thick leaves, curled around it as if for protection. The snow was cold, but light radiated down into it, making it quite easy to break through; and here now the Sunbeam streamed down with greater strength than before.
«Welcome! Welcome!» sang and rang out every sunbeam as the Flower rose above the snow, out into the world of light. The Sunbeams caressed and kissed it, so that it opened itself fully, white as snow and adorned with green stripes. It bowed its head in happiness and humility.
«Beautiful flower!» sang the Sunbeams. «How fresh and pure you are! You are the first; you are the only one! You are our love! You ring out the call of summer, lovely summer, over town and country! All the snow shall melt, the cold winds be driven away! We shall reign! Everything shall grow green! And then you shall have company, the lilacs and laburnums and finally the roses. But you are the first, so tender and pure!»
This was a great delight to the Flower. It was as if the air itself were ringing and singing, as if the Sunbeams were all penetrating the leaves and stem of the Flower. There it stood, so fine and fragile, and yet so strong, in all its youthful beauty, in its white kirtle with the green bands, praising the summer. But summertime was far off; clouds shrouded the sun; sharp winds blew on the Flower.
«You have come a little too early!» said Wind and Weather. «We still have power, and this you shall feel and have to comply with! You should have remained indoors, instead of rushing out here to display your finery! It is not the time for that yet!»
It was bitingly cold, and the days that followed didn't bring a sunbeam. It was weather to freeze such a delicate little flower to bits. But there was more strength in it than even it realized. That strength was in its happy faith that summer must come, and this had been imparted by its own deep desire and confirmed by the warm sunlight. And so with patient hope it stood there in its white dress, in the white snow, bowing its head when the snowflakes fell thick and heavy or while the icy winds swept over it.
«You'll break!» they said. «Wither, freeze! What did you want out here? Why did you let yourself be enticed? The Sunbeam has hoaxed you! Now make the best of it, you snowdrop, summer fool!»
«Snowdrop, summer fool!» repeated the Flower there in the cold morning.
«Snowdrop!» rejoiced some children who came into the garden. «There stands one, so sweet, so beautiful-the first, the only one!
And these words made the Flower feel so well; they were like the warm Sunbeams. In its gladness it never noticed that it was being plucked. Then it lay in a child's hand, was kissed by a child's lips, brought into a warm room, gazed upon by kindly eyes, and set in water-so strengthening, so exhilarating. The Flower thought that it had all of a sudden come into midsummer.
The daughter of the house was a lovely little girl who had just been confirmed. And she had a dear boy friend; he also had been confirmed, and was studying to equip himself for earning a living. «He shall be my snowdrop!» she told herself. Then she took the lovely Flower and laid it on a scented piece of paper that had a verse written on it, a verse about the Flower, beginning with «snowdrop» and ending with «snowdrop.» «Little sweetheart, be my snowdrop, my winter fool!»-thus she had playfully mocked him with the summer. Yes, that was written in the verses. And it was then folded up like a letter, with the Flower placed inside; it was dark in there where it lay, as dark as when it had been in the bulb. The Flower was sent on a journey; it lay in a mail sack, was pressed and squeezed, and that was not at all pleasant, but finally this came to an end.
When the journey was over, the letter was opened and read by her dear friend. He was so delighted that he kissed the Flower. And then it was locked up, with the poem around it, in a drawer where there lay many charming letters, though none had a flower in it. Here, too, it was the first, the only one, as the Sunbeams had called it, and that was pleasant to think about.
It had a long period of leisure in which to think about it; it thought while the summer passed, and the long winter passed, and then when it was summer again, it was brought forth from the drawer. But this time the young man was not at all happy. He seized up the letters very harshly, and flung away the poem, so that the Flower fell onto the floor. It had become flattened and withered, but that was no reason to throw it onto the floor, though it was better off lying there than in the fire, where poems and letters were blazing. What had happened? What so often happens. The Flower had mocked him, and that was a joke; the girl had mocked him, but that was no joke; she had chosen another boy friend this midsummer.
In the morning the sun shone in on the little flattened Snowdrop, which looked as if it were painted on the floor. The maid who swept the room picked it up and placed it in one of the books on the table, for she thought it had fallen out when she was clearing up and putting things in order. And so once again the Flower lay between verses, printed verses this time, which are grander than the written ones-at least they cost more.
Years passed, throughout which the book stood on its shelf. But now at last it was taken down, opened, and read. It was a good book-the songs and poems of the Danish poet, Ambrosius Stub, who is well worth your knowing. The man who was reading the book turned a page.
«Ah, here is a flower!» he said. «A snowdrop! It is with significance indeed that it lies here. Poor Ambrosius Stub! He was a snowdrop, too, a poet-snowdrop. He was before his time, and therefore he had to face sharp winds and sleet as he passed among the gentlemen of Funen; he was like a flower in a water glass, a flower in a valentine; a summer fool, winter fool, full of fun and drollery. And yet he was the first, the only youthfully fresh Danish poet. Yes, lie there as a marker in this book, little Snowdrop. You are laid here with meaning!»
And then the Snowdrop again was placed in the book, and felt both honored and delighted to know that it was a marker in the beautiful book of poetry, and that he who had first written and sung about the flower had also been a snowdrop and been mocked in the winter. Now the Flower understood this in its own way, just as we understand things in our way.
That is the fairy story of the Snowdrop.

The Grand Children's Park
It was about ten minutes after our entrance into Busan's Grand Children's Park before we realized something was amiss. The park was crowded with senior citizens playing go-stop and full-grown adults hiking or playing badminton. But one thing was conspicuously missing from the Children's Park: children.
Found near the Samgwangsa Temple, the park surrounds a beautiful reservoir which is fed by a cascading stream and ringed by heavy woods. It's yet another spot in central Busan where it's impossible to believe you're in the middle of a metropolis; so serene and quiet. And the tranquility is definitely enhanced by the utter lack of squealing brats.
And this would be a great place for kids and families to spend some time! There's a zoo, an amusement park, a practice driving course and an entire three-floor science museum. Of these, we visited only the Science hall. And we had the run of the place. I had long suspected how much better the world would be without children, but never truly understood. While the museum's staff watched us with either contempt or boredom (surprisingly difficult to tell between the two), we played with all the awesome toys that stupid children normally hog.
This is Korea, so the games and exhibitions were guaranteed to be more modern and ten times better than in science museums back home. We spent a long time battling each other in Robot Soccer, then moved over to the simulation bike ride through Korea. We walked through a space tunnel and played with awesome mechanical contraptions designed to show off concepts like electromagnetism.
Having had our fill of fun, we left the museum and took a nature hike around the reservoir. Gorgeous; this was perhaps the most scenic park we've yet visited in Busan. The woods, the stream, the wooden path built high up off the ground, the peace and quiet. If you need a break from city life or just want to escape the presence of children, you'd be hard-pressed to find a better place than the Children's Park.

Salvation consists of deliverance from all sin and unrighteousness through the blood of Jesus Christ. The New Testament experience of salvation consists of repentance from sin, water baptism in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and the baptism of the Holy Ghost, after which the Christian is to live a godly life (Acts 2:36-41).
Water Baptism
Water baptism is an essential part of New Testament salvation and not merely a symbolic ritual. It is part of entering into the kingdom of God (God's church, the bride of Christ), and therefore, it is not merely a part of local church membership. (See John 3:5; Galatians 3:27).
Mode of Baptism
Water baptism is to be administered only by immersion. Paul said, "We are buried with him [Jesus Christ] by baptism (Romans 6:4; see Colossians 2:12), Jesus came up "out of the water" (Mark 1:10), and Philip and the eunuch went down "into the water" and came up "out of the water" (Acts 8:38-39). Jesus' death, burial, and resurrection are applied to our lives when we experience New Testament salvation: "Repent [death to sin], and be baptized [burial] every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost [resurrection]." (See Acts 2:38; Romans 6:1-7; 8:2). Sprinkling, pouring, or infant baptism of any kind cannot be substantiated by the Word of God, but are only human traditions.
Formula for Baptism
The name in which baptism is administered is vitally important, and this name is Jesus. Jesus' last command to His disciples was, "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost" (Matthew 28:19). We should notice that He said name (singular) not names. As previously explained, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost are not names of separate persons, but titles of positions held by God. An angelic announcement revealed God's saving name in the New Testament: "She shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins" (Matthew 1:21). The apostles understood that Jesus was the name to use at baptism, and from the day that the church of God was established (the Day of Pentecost) until the end of their ministry, they baptized all nations (Jews--Acts 8:16; Gentiles--Acts 19:5) in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. In fact, Jesus is the only name given for our salvation. "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved" (Acts 4:12).
Baptism of the Holy Ghost
The baptism of the Holy Ghost is the birth of the Spirit (John 3:5). This spiritual baptism is necessary to put someone into the kingdom of God (God's church, the bride of Christ) and is evidenced by speaking in other tongues (other languages) as the Spirit of God give utterance. It was prophesied by Joel (Joel 2:28-29) and Isaiah (Isaiah 28:11), foretold by John the Baptist (Matthew 3:11), purchased by the blood of Jesus, and promised by Him to His disciples (John 14:26; 15:16). The Holy Ghost was first poured out on the Day of Pentecost upon the Jews (Acts 2:1-4), then upon the Samaritans (Acts 8:17), and later upon the Gentiles (Acts 10:44-46; 19:6). "The promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call" (Acts 2:39).
1. Speaking in other tongues as the Spirit of God gives utterance is the manifestation God has given as the definite, indisputable, supernatural witness or sign of the baptism of the Holy Ghost (Acts 2:4; 10:46; 19:6). It was prophesied by the prophet Isaiah as the rest and the refreshing (Isaiah 28:11-12), foretold by Jesus as a sign that would follow believers of the gospel (Mark 16:17), and experienced by Jews and Gentiles alike.
2. The gift of "diverse kinds of tongues," mentioned by Paul in I Corinthians 12:1-12 and concerning which he gave regulations in I Corinthians 14:1-40, is given by both for self-edification (I Corinthians 14:4) and for the edification of the church (I Corinthians 14:27-28). In church meetings the gift of tongues is used to give a public message, and it is to be interpreted. Since this gift can be misused in public, it needs proper regulation (I Corinthians 14:23-28). Not all believers exercise the gift of tongues, which is different in function from tongues given by God as the initial witness of the baptism of the Holy Ghost. Paul said, "Forbid not to speak with tongues" (I Corinthians 14:39) and "I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all" (I Corinthians 14:8). Who dares to teach or preach to the contrary?
Speaking in tongues means speaking miraculously in a language unknown to the speaker, as the Spirit gives utterance. Tongues can be classified in two ways, according to function: (1)speaking in other tongues as the initial evidence of the baptism of the Holy Ghost and (2)the gift of tongues as mentioned in I Corinthians.
After we are saved from sin, we are commanded, "Go, and sin no more" (John 8:11). We are commanded to live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present world (Titus 2:12) and warned that without holiness no one shall see the Lord (Hebrews 12:14). We must present ourselves as holy unto God (Romans 12:1), cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit (II Corinthians 7:1), and separate ourselves from all worldliness (James 4:4). If the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear? (I Peter 4:18). No one can live a holy life by his own power, but only through the Holy Spirit. "Ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you" (Acts 1:8).

What are maternity pens and why are they used?
Individual maternity pens (IMP) house sows during the most vulnerable duration of their pregnancy. IMPs protect sows from other animals. In group-housing situations, pregnant sows often fight for food and dominance, resulting in higher rates of injury to less dominant animals. Group housing was abandoned by much of the industry several decades ago at the advice of veterinarians and animal welfare advocates.
Research finds that stress hormone levels in sows are lower in pens than in group housing. Additionally, maternity pens provide for individual feeding and veterinary care.

Best-Selling Author Tom Clancy Dead at 66
Tom Clancy, the writer of numerous popular military thrillers, died on Wednesday morning at age 66.
Clancy was nearly a genre unto himself, with his creations spreading beyond the page and into films like 'The Hunt for Red October' and 'The Sum of All Fears,' and video games like the 'Splinter Cell,' 'Rainbow Six' and 'Ghost Recon' series, all of which bore his name as a major selling point.
His book 'Clear and Present Danger' (1989), the fourth featuring his most popular character, Jack Ryan, became the top-selling novel of the 1980s. He continued his run of success in the 1990s, becoming one of just three authors to have hit the two-million-copies-sold mark on a first printing. (The other two were J.K. Rowling and John Grisham.)

After nine years as a property operations assistant at Harvard Real Estate Services, I joined the Arnold Arboretum in October 2010 as assistant facilities manager. I focus on maintaining operations in all Arboretum buildings including cooling and heating, preventive maintenance, cleaning, and other duties that keep our buildings running efficiently. I have worked with geothermal heating and cooling systems like the one we have in the Weld Hill Research Building, and I have worked with Harvard's initiative to reduce its emission of greenhouse gases.
Before coming to Harvard, I worked as a lead mechanic in facilities for 11 years at A.W. Chesterton Company in Woburn, MA. I maintained their equipment for proper operation in the factory. I also worked with the Research and Development Group to design, build, and fabricate new equipment.
When I am not at the Arboretum, I enjoy time with my 10-year-old son, Cameron. My hobbies include boating, motorcycling, and other power sports. I also enjoy restoring the equipment associated with these sports.

Themes (like Subtle: http://gluedideas.com/downloads/subtle/) might contain numerous CSS files. The theme editor, however, does not recognize any other CSS files other than style.css.
The files might be located some levels deeper in sub directories like '/wp-content/themes/glued-ideas-subtle-01/assets/css/print.css'.

Could be lumped in with #6632 maybe. No point in having 2 generic editors. Not sure how common buried stylesheets are.
15 years ago
- Type changed from defect (bug) to enhancement
It's not common, but it occurs. The patch from #6632 partially sorts this if the files are in a direct subfolder. If you've a file any deeper, it won't do any good. example:

It seem it will already recursively search for PHP files.
Is there any logical reason why you would not display all of the theme's CSS files from subdirectories in the theme editor?
Changing to a bug because expected behaviour is that all CSS files in the theme are shown.

Thanks Mike for the patch! Verified, works. Also improves the coding style to match http://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/coding-standards/php/.
I'd like to see this included in 3.6 after two improvements:
- Use curly braces with all ifs. Avoids hassle and bugs in later edits. A decent percentage of bugs are caused by editing code like this:
} else { if ( plugin_basename("$dir/$file") != $plugin ) $plugin_files[] = plugin_basename("$dir/$file"); }
- Theme editor could use the same functionality.
Marking ticket as defect (bug) instead of enhancement. More appropriate for the file list not displaying all files of a plugin or theme. Milestone, anyone?
11 years ago
- In order to improve performance, instead of calling this function twice inside a loop:
Split it into these parts, the first of which is to be called only once in the beginning of the function:
$plugin_basedir = plugin_basename($dir); ... "$plugin_basedir/$file"
The patch in #24049 also applies this change.

Encountered a bug:
- After opening a file from within a subdirectory, the Plugin Files lists only files and directories under that subdirectory.

Turns out the bug in comment 19 affects core now. Should it be a separate ticket, even though 24050.2.diff fixes it? Also I still think there needs to be some ui improvements for the long list.

- Keywords needs-ui added
I think if we want to get this into core we need to get a UI that supports a long list of files and file tree structure.
10 years ago
- Keywords needs-patch added; has-patch needs-testing needs-ui removed
Let's not let this ticket get hung up on UI - see #24048 for that instead.
As for this, what if we go with displaying the path for some clarity in themes, I guess the way plugins do now? And could we get a unified patch addressing all of the above? Can't apply the existing ones together, but one only deals with plugins :)
10 years ago
Agreed with Helen. It's crucial to be able to see all the files in subfolders, and secondary to prettify it. Making all of the files visible is also pretty much a prerequisite for making the list neat. The sooner we display the full list in any ugly way, the sooner we can start to work on the chrome and polish for it.
Regarding Mike's excellent patches above, my opinion is that if there's one patch that fixes all of them for both plugins and themes, that'd be just perfect.
10 years ago
- Keywords dev-feedback added
The 6531.3.diff patch includes unit tests to prove that get_plugin_files
will now return paths beyond two directory levels deep. This new patch subtly updates the UI for both plugins and themes. The previous patch didn't change the UI for plugins, but did for themes. I've updated the code to improve performance according to comment #18. I also solved an issue where the select dropdown was not showing the correct selected
plugin when editing a file that wasn't the main plugin file.
C'mon Guys. Let's get this ticket closed! It's been open for 7 years.
10 years ago
I guess I didn't test the theme code thoroughly enough from the previous patch. When I was showing someone how to apply and create a patch I noticed a bug when viewing the tree with a non default theme. Some of the files had empty strings in the nonessential span element which meant you just saw "()" under the file without text inside. I've fixed it in the latest patch.

we need a better solution for recursion here
7 years ago
The patches on the ticket address the scanning of plugin files. For Themes, it's easier, and if we can't just bump up the depth (for whatever reason), maybe we could put filters and let themes "grant access" to its own deeper files.
foreach ( $file_types as $type ) { switch ( $type ) { case 'php': $allowed_files += $theme->get_files( 'php', apply_filters('wp_theme_scandir_depth', 1, $type, $stylesheet ) ); $has_templates = ! empty( $allowed_files ); break; case 'css': $style_files = $theme->get_files( 'css', apply_filters('wp_theme_scandir_depth', 0, $type, $stylesheet ) ); $allowed_files['style.css'] = $style_files['style.css']; $allowed_files += $style_files; break; default: $allowed_files += $theme->get_files( $type, apply_filters('wp_theme_scandir_depth', 0, $type, $stylesheet ) ); break; } }
This would at least allow themes (TwentyEighteen, for example) to do
add_filter( 'wp_theme_scandir_depth', function( $depth, $type, $theme ) { if ('twentyeighteen' == $theme && 'css' == $type) return 2; return $depth; },10,3 );
This would be useful for plugins that enhance the theme editor, such that they no longer have to completely rewrite the entire theme-editor.php
file. (example: https://github.com/unFocus/Scripts-n-Styles/blob/17e3c1b522ef7aa349b417041f12ccd4853f80e6/dist/includes/theme-editor-page.php)
I've also rewrote the entire plugin-editor.php
to use the patch on this ticket https://github.com/unFocus/Scripts-n-Styles/blob/17e3c1b522ef7aa349b417041f12ccd4853f80e6/dist/includes/plugin-editor-page.php (Currently in 4.0.0-alpha, not in the public release.)

Replying to wonderboymusic:
we need a better solution for recursion here
@wonderboymusic Do you have specific feedback on what needs improvement? Is it that recursion in general is bad or the current implementation in the patch needs revision?
I'm looking for other cases of recursive directory traversal in core and I see:
, which isn't even used in core. (⁉)recurse_dirsize()
used inget_dirsize()
which is used inget_space_used()
which are then used inwp_dashboard_quota()
). Results are stored in transient.wpmu_delete_blog()
which is recursing directories via iteration.WP_Theme::scandir()
which is used inWP_Theme::get_files()
and currently limits depths by file type. This one seems it should be refactored to get the full list of files and then split them up by type, rather than do multiple directory iterations for each type.
One thing to consider as well is to add the list of theme/plugin files to a transient, with the theme/plugin version in the cache key, so that the recursion doesn't have to be done every single time the editor is loaded.
It seems that get_plugin_files()
should be using list_files()
, since the former is using nested loops rather than proper recursion.
I think it would be better to go the route of using a recursive directory iterator rather than add filters to extend the depth on a type-by-type basis.

I'm interested in tackling this for 4.9.
I'd like to investigate using proper PHP iterator objects, and provide some custom magic so that they can transparently cache into transients/object cache.
The main benefit is that you don't pull in all files and folders into memory just to pass them around, but rather you prepare an iterator object and pass that on. In some cases, the actual iteration will never happen as it is not needed, and in some cases you'll only end up with a partial iteration, which saves IO and memory as well.
Once the iterators are built, they can easily be adapted to replace the above functions.
Is there anything that would speak against such an approach?

@WraithKenny Here are some observations regarding the patch:
uses recursion, which can put a lot of strain on the system or even lead to failures in extreme cases.- The caching mechanism will fail if the result of the traversal is indeed an empty set (like if the only plugin was excluded). This will disable the caching and iterate over the files every single time.
- The caching mechanism is prone to cache stampedes on high load servers, where the cache might be refreshed multiple times in parallel.
I would recommend returning PHP recursive iterators instead of using a recursive function and collecting the entire result set, and building a more fail-safe caching mechanism.
Using PHP iterators has the following advantages:
- Depending on the use case, traversal can stop early.
- Iterators can still be modified (i.e. further filtered) after they have been returned.
- Depending on the PHP version support, they can even be better optimized to transparently support parallel crawling or other neat tricks.
7 years ago
- Keywords needs-unit-tests added
I've applied some fixes to PHP code style which were identified by PHPCS. See 6531.7.diff (and delta).
In addition to @schlessera's great feedback, one thing that became clear to me in testing the patch is that we should absolutely ignore certain directories from being traversed. I'm thinking node_modules
, vendor
, and bower_components
to start. The list of files can get so incredibly long that it just becomes impossible to navigate. I don't think we can safely throw this on users if we don't also tackle #41729.
While this is out of scope for this ticket, the latency for recursing over all the files is compounded by the fact that every time the user saves a file, the result is a full page reload when there really is no need for that. In reality the new file's contents should get submitted over Ajax (er, eventually maybe REST API) and in that way the user wouldn't be continually pinging the server to re-generate the list of files every single time, and making the user have to re-locate their scroll position after saving. There is crossover here as well with #39766 and #39766 where we could avoid the whole need to detect when an PHP error happens and then when the plugin editor page reloads to throw in an iframe to try scraping for the error message again. The error message can simply be returned in the Ajax response and then shown to the user immediately. /cc @melchoyce

Here is a rundown of the current patch
now contains a filter called'list_files_exclusions'
that will ignore hidden files and folders and folders named 'CVS', 'node_modules', 'vendor', or 'bower_components' when scanning for files. ('CVS' because it existed in 'theme_scandir_exclusions'.)WP_Theme::scandir()
updated to exclude 'vendor', or 'bower_components' also.get_plugin_files
now useslist_files()
now doesscandir
only once for all files at all depths, and filters it's return per call.get_plugin_files
now caches file lists returned fromlist_files()
into a transient for an hour, keyed to directory and Version.WP_Theme::get_files()
caches file lists returned fromscandir()
into a transient for an hour, keyed to theme Name and Version.theme-editor.php
calls to$theme->get_files()
are passed with-1
to get all files of the type.
Patch 6531.9.diff is to address some of @schlessera's comments, particularly the "empty set" condition. I'm not sure I fully understand the implications however, since an empty set would cause the function to scan for 0 files when the theme editor is loaded. I updated the patch to check for false === $all_files
which should make sure that it won't run more than once per hour. As for the "stampedes" issue, I don't fully understand, but that'd be a wider issue for transients and caching in general rather than this ticket, right?
As for PHP recursive iterators, I'm not too familiar with them, but I'll research after work to see what I can do, unless you'd like to take a stab at it :) Thanks for the feedback!
@westonruter thanks for the link to wpcs/phpcs; I've got it installed now.
I've got the folders you've suggested filtered out now (and devs can use the filter to adjust to their liking, if they really really want to opt into including 'vendor' or whatever after #24048 folders are added).
It also looks like you've already solved a lot of the issues in the second paragraph over in #24048! Awesome job there!
7 years ago
@schlessera and @westonruter I could add back in the filters from 6531-theme.diff and add a similar one (or better named one) onto the list_files()
call in get_plugin_files()
so that sites concerned could put the depth back to 1 if they have issues. (it'd be no worse of a load then currently, right?) Thoughts?

@WraithKenny :
particularly the "empty set" condition. I'm not sure I fully understand the implications however, since an empty set would cause the function to scan for 0 files when the theme editor is loaded.
The main issue was that caching would have been disabled as a side effect, thus fetching from cache every single time, failing every single time, and then starting to look through the filesystem every single time.
With the check for false
you did now, the cache will be checked only once, and it will correctly cache the fact that it didn't find any files.
As for PHP recursive iterators, I'm not too familiar with them, but I'll research after work to see what I can do, unless you'd like to take a stab at it :) Thanks for the feedback!
I will see if I can manage to fit in that change before the deadline...
- I'd suggest having a way to define/override the exclusions for
through the function call, and putting the filters outside of that "reusable" function. I don't think the filter conceptually fits into thelist_files()
- The transient name needs to be truncated to control the length, to avoid running into obscure bugs where a long directory name breaks the caching.

- Keywords has-unit-tests added; needs-unit-tests removed
Starting from @WraithKenny 's 6531.9.diff patch, I did the following changes:
- I switched the
implementation from a recursive function to an iterator-based approach. - The max.
argument has been deprecated, as it doesn't make any sense with iterators. I kept it in the signature though to stay safe wrt BC. If we know this is not used, we can remove it from the signature to clean up the code. - The function returns an iterator object, not an array. This allows consuming code to add further filtering, while working as usual with
loops. - The iterator returns
objects. You can retrieve the path or the filename individually from these. Casting them to a string will result in a filename that includes the absolute path. - I moved the exclusions filter from
. As a result, the filter was renamed toget_plugin_files_exclusions
. - I added the possibility to match a regex. This helps further filtering files.
- I added the possibility to choose whether to skip hidden files or not.
- I truncated the transient label and added an md5 to keep it unique.
- I added basic unit tests for the

I'm trying to debug 6531.10.diff to see if it's my dev setup or something, but in the meantime, I had the patch I was working on 6531.10.a.diff which is like .9 but with the filter for list_files moved out, and better transient keys.
7 years ago
I tried several permutations now to transform the iterator into an array to stay safe and not try to serialize the actual iterator object, but the RecursiveFilterIterator
seems buggy in its PHP 5.2 incarnation.
Normally, with PHP 5.4+, you'd use a CallbackFilterIterator
, but with PHP 5.2, you have to create a custom class instead, which will need a second constructor argument to inject the options. And whatever combinations I have tried, the conversion to an array always created new instances of that filter and omitted the second argument to the constructor.
Without the filter, it is not possible to filter folders, only files, so it would not be possible to exclude folders such a node_modules
. This is a show-stopper for using iterators in this case.
I suggest going with the recursive function for now, and re-investigate using iterators when WordPress Core uses PHP 5.4 as a minimum (hopefully next year, then ;) ).
7 years ago
I added another patch named 6531.11.diff
. It takes @WraithKenny 's 6531.10.a.diff
patch and adds the following changes:
- Transient key is truncated and made unique with an MD5
- Fixes an issue with double slashes in the generated paths
- Renames the filter in
to bring it in line with the theme specific filter - Makes sure single files are always producing the correct path by wrapping them into
- Adds unit test for
when testing against a plugin with subfolders - Adds unit test for
to return arbitrary files - Adds unit test for

A few notes on [41086], changed from 6531.11.diff:
- Changed the
filter name toplugin_files_exclusions
. Though it's slightly different from the function name, it more accurately reflects what it's for. (It's for filtering the plugin files exclusions, not for filtering whether to get the plugin files exclusions.) - In
, swap the$plugin_files += $list_files
line for anarray_merge()
, because the former didn't work properly in PHP 5.2/5.3 ($list_files
had different keys in different PHP versions). Similarly, add anarray_values()
call on the next line, to normalise the array keys. - In the
tests, useassertContains()
, and test forindex.php
instead ofabout.php
. - A handful for inline docs changes.

Money Transmitter/Foreign Money Transmitter License Candidate Fingerprinting |
New Fees Effective June 1, 2019 ALL Candidates for New Jersey Money Transmitter/Foreign Money Transmitter Licenses are required to complete a fingerprinting process known as Live Scan as a condition of securing Money Transmitter/Foreign Money Transmitter licenses. This requirement affects all new candidates for Money Transmitter/Foreign Money Transmitter licenses. This includes sole proprietors as well as officers, directors, members, partners, and key shareholders of corporations, limited liability companies and partnerships seeking business entity Money Transmitter/Foreign Money Transmitter licenses and any officer or manager who will be in charge of the New Jersey business activity to be licensed MUST be fingerprinted before a license can be issued. Exceptions to the fingerprinting requirement exist for a publicly traded corporation, its subsidiaries and affiliates, or a bank, bank holding company and its subsidiaries and affiliates. |
Key shareholder means: any person or group of persons acting in concert who own twenty-five (25) percent or more of any voting class of the applicant's stock. Sole proprietor candidates and executive officers, directors, members, partners, key shareholders and officers or managers who will be in charge of the business activities to be licensed should complete the fingerprinting process in sufficient time prior to the filing of an application in order to ensure that there is adequate processing time available before any anticipated date for commencement of licensed business. Applications for licensure WILL NOT be accepted without a fully completed application, the appropriate application fee(s), and evidence of the completion of the fingerprinting process for the applicant's principals. Evidence of completion of the fingerprinting process MUST include: |
To Get Fingerprinted... |

Instructions for Live Scan: Electronic Fingerprinting Process | ||||||
Criminal History Background Investigation New Jersey law requires that every applicant and any officer, director, partner or owner of a controlling interest of a corporation, limited liability company or partnership applying for a Money Transmitter/Foreign Money Transmitter license issued by the Division of Banking, New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance must submit fingerprints and written consent for a criminal history record check. Previously, fingerprinting involved the manual ink and roll method; however new technology allows for electronic impressions.
How to Schedule an Appointment Prior to contacting the vendor, each candidate must complete the appropriate Universal Form (IDG_NJAPP_051719_V1) depending upon the license type they are seeking. You MUST use the correct Universal Form in order for the results to be properly received by Licensing Services, Banking. Use ONLY the form linked from this page which identifies the type of license sought as "NJ Money Transmitter Act." Appointment scheduling is available via the Internet 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. The Department encourages everyone to schedule their appointment using the vendor website to avoid telephone holding times. |
Processing Fee All applicants must pay the criminal history record check fee directly to IDEMIA. The total cost for this process is $66.05. Payment will be required at the time of scheduling. The following forms of payment are accepted: Visa, MasterCard, American Expresss, Discover and prepaid debit cards, or electronic debit (ACH) from a checking account. |
Cancellation Fee An appointment fee of $12 plus tax ($12.80) is charged to cover the cost of a scheduled appointment for applicants who do not cancel/reschedule by 5 p.m. EST on the business day prior to the scheduled appointment (Saturday noon for Monday appointments). An appointment fee of $12 plus tax ($12.80) also applies to applicants who are turned away from the printing sites due to their inability to present proper ID or who fail to present the proper and current version of the Universal Fingerprint form. All refunds are issued by IDEMIA. |
Selecting the Proper Universal Form The Division of Banking issues multiple license types that require fingerprinting. The proper Universal Form (IDG_NJAPP_051719_V1) must be completed for scheduling and presented at the appointment or you will be turned away from the scanning center and charged an appointment fee, as described above. Each license type is identified in field #4 of the Universal Form. You must use the Universal form where field #4 lists "NJ Money Transmitter Act." In addition, please be sure to use the most current version of the form. |
Proper Identification ACCEPTABLE ID REQUIREMENTS - ID MUST include Photo, Name, Address (Home/Employer) and Date of Birth. Acceptable ID MUST be issued by a Federal, State, County, or Municipal entity for Identification purposes. Examples of acceptable ID are 1) Valid Photo Driver's License or Valid Photo ID issued by any State DMV or NJ MVC, 2) Passport. Acceptable ID MUST meet all of the underlined requirements above and MUST be present on one (1) ID. Combinations of documents are NOT acceptable. If acceptable ID is not presented you will not be fingerprinted. |
PLEASE NOTE: If you live, work or go to school in New Jersey you MUST be fingerprinted in person at one of the
IDEMIA facilities. |
Frequently Asked Questions | ||||||
Who needs to schedule a fingerprint scan for criminal history purposes as a condition of receiving a Division of Banking license?
If an individual has been fingerprinted in the State of New Jersey for another purpose, is the individual required to go through the process again? Yes. Regulations concerning dissemination of criminal history information prohibit its use outside the intended purpose. Federal and State security and privacy regulations dictate that dissemination of this information may only be for the purpose expressed in the form field identified as "Reason Fingerprinted." Sharing of criminal history information is therefore prohibited. |
How do I begin the process? The first step is to download the current version of the Universal Form (IDG_NJAPP_051719_V1). Following completion of the proper Universal Form, contact the Live Scan fingerprint vendor for New Jersey to schedule an appointment. |
What do I bring to the scanning center? Scanning centers are located throughout the State. You must bring to the scanning center:
When should I schedule the fingerprint scan?
The Department suggests that the following guidance be used in scheduling fingerprint scans for individuals who live, work or go to school in New Jersey OR live, work or go to school within ten (10) miles of any border of New Jersey:
The scheduled appointment will be within 7 to 10 days of completing the scheduling process. Remember that we suggest you take advantage of online appointment scheduling. |
What must I do to have my fingerprints processed if I do NOT live, work or go to school in New Jersey OR within ten (10) miles of any of New Jersey's borders? If you do NOT live, work or go to school in New Jersey OR if you do NOT live, work or go to school within ten (10) miles of any of New Jersey's borders, you must contact the Licensing Services Bureau, Banking in writing by fax at (609) 292-1416 or by e-mail at email@example.com for appropriate information and forms for completion of the required fingerprinting. The written request MUST include the name and mailing address of the company as well as identification of the individuals who will need fingerprinting and a contact telephone number. NOTE: This process will include the use of "ink and roll" fingerprint cards that can be obtained ONLY through the Licensing Services Bureau, Banking, and that must be taken to the individual's local police/state police jurisdiction for completion. Individuals must follow the instructions in the letter they will receive from this Department regarding items to be returned. IMPORTANT: The above process MUST be completed prior to the submission of a license application. Therefore, you MUST allow sufficient time for this process to be completed prior to the filing of an application as fingerprinting is now a condition of licensure. You are REMINDED that it is your responsibility to ensure that there is adequate processing time available before any anticipated date for commencement of licensed business. |

We were amazed by all the weather inspired cards in the gallery last week at CASology !
While on the topic of weather... as I am typing here, Sugar and I just returned from our morning walk... sandblasted!
Yep, it's that time of the year in the UAE when the shamal wind comes and deposits all the sand it picks up on its way from Saudi Arabia... right here !
It means the season is changing. Not so slowly, but surely yes!
BUT!!! I am actually not here to talk about the weather again... we have a new cue card to inspire your designs!
Oh boy so many ways to incorporate washi on your cards... if you get stuck, remember Pinterest has a wealth of washi ideas!
I love the look of negative space filled with washi... and this is my card:
An a close up:
I used one bunny image from the Silhouette online store, created a mirror image and filled the negative space by applying 2 different patterns of washi tape to the card base.
I completed the card with my own sentiment (shared below) and a heart embellishment punched from a piece of scrap covered with the same tape.
The sentiment:
Please visit the rest of the team listed below.. and be inspired!
Sharing my card over at Less is more where the recipe asks for POLKADOTS! :D
Thanks for visiting me today!

Modern Day Prospector Finds Gold Rush in 'Them New York City Streets' [VIDEO]
San Francisco, 1849. Alaska, 1897. New York City, 2011? Is there a new gold rush in the Big Apple?
There is for Queens native Raffi Stepanian, who literally struck gold after discovering he could make up to $300 a day by 'mining' the sidewalks in Manhattan's Diamond District for the tiny bits of gold, platinum and rare gems that fall from the clothes of workers when they leave their shops.
"The streets of 47th Street are literally paved with gold," is how Stephanian succinctly puts it.
Watch the urban prospector use tweezers, a brush and a butter knife to pan for gold from the sidewalk in the videos below.
