At first I though it was the same but with eclemma it seems different. But I can't find anything about it.

This question came from our site for professional and enthusiast programmers.
Test coverage and code coverage as generic terms can mean a broad variety of different measures of what has been covered: lines of code, subconditions of boolean expressions, accesses to data, calls to API functions, ...
In the common vernacular, and for almost all the tools you can get, "test coverage" and "code coverage" tell you what code executed by whatever testing process you use (whether that is unit test, functional test, informal test, interactive test, ...).
The only widely used variation is MC/DC (test/code) coverage, which tells you which of the boolean subconditions in a logical expression have been exercised in a way that controls the outcome of the boolean expression. Only a few tools offer this.
I'm sure eclemma provides test/code coverage of the standard type. Whether it provides anything else... I don't know.
Here is how I use the terms. Code coverage is a measure of how much code is executed in response to a stimulus (e.g. running a test). Test coverage is a measure of how much of the feature set was executed as a result of a test.
Others will have other definitions. When someone uses those terms, if you are not sure what they mean, ask them.
Here is how I use these terms (although I almost never actually uses these terms).
Code coverage is a measure of how much code is executed during testing.
Test coverage is a measure of how many test cases have been executed during testing.
Your mileage may vary...
As the above responses the definition varies. I sometimes say code coverage does not matter to me but test coverage does.
By test coverage I mean in this context that any possible behaviour of a class should be documented by tests (ie. if you look at the tests you should be able to make a safe assumption of the outputs and behaviour of any method of that class, provided any given set of inputs. Which also includes assumptions of invalid inputs.
Lines of code that do not impact behaviour are obviously undesirable, but if they exist that is usually less relevant. For me typical examples of such lines are small best practice approaches that are actually rarely used, so I might not test if I catch an exception if a file is written and I check if it exists before trying to write it. Having that sort of check often is better than not writing or testing this kind of code.

Specific gravity (SG) is a measure of density. By convention, pure water has a SG of 1.000. Substances denser than water have a higher specific gravity. For example, if a beer has an OG of 1.050, it is 5% heavier than the same volume of water.
In Beer
The stuff that makes beer heavier than water is (mostly) sugars. By measuring the specific gravity of wort or beer you are implicitly reading its sugar content.† Measurements of Specific Gravity can only guess about the sugar content, since other things in solution, like alcohol, change the sample's density.
PPG & Potential
Sugars like malt extracts have a "points per pound per gallon" (ppg) rating. PPG is calculated by combining one pound of extract and enough pure water to make one gallon. The extract's rating is then the specific gravity of this solution. Usually, the supplier of a malt extract will list its ppg.
For example, suppose you have a pound of honey and you want to calculate its ppg. Mix the honey and enough water to make a one gallon solution. A hydrometer reading a SG of 1.026 means the honey's ppg is 26.†† Sometimes, this is written as a "potential" of 1.026.
Note you can not add a pound of honey to a gallon of water. The honey takes up volume by itself. The total solution must be one gallon for a correct measurement of potential.
Now we can calculate the SG of one pound of extract in a one gallon solution. To arrive at the SG of an arbitrary weight of extract in a one gallon solution, multiply the number of pounds of extract by it's ppg. If your volume is larger, say five gallons, divide by the volume.
For example, 7.3 pounds of malt extract with a ppg of 34 mixed to make 5 gallons yields a wort with specific gravity 1.050.
Congress Mash
Like extracts, grains and adjuncts have a ppg rating. To get a grain's potential, the supplier performs what is known as a congress mash where the malt is ground into flour and steeped at a certain temperature for a set length of time. The gravity of the resulting wort is measured to arrive at the potential. This method determines the maximum potential of the malt.
A congress mash would produce beer that is astringent and cloudy. Tannins from the husks and proteins in the kernel would carry over, making for a nasty brew. Brewers instead crush grain and sacrifice a little malt potential.
The amount of potential lost to various brewhouse techniques (like crushing instead of grinding) is called efficiency. Typically a brewer accepts efficiencies between 60 and 80 percent of the maximum potential produced by a congress mash. If a brewhouse produces a wort of 1.045 with malts of calculated maximum potential 1.064, the efficiency is 70%. (45 / 64 = 0.70)
Taking this into account:
Adding It All Up
Combining malts and extracts with different potential is also simple. Calculate the resulting specific gravity of each individually, then sum the results.
Try this:
The answer:
† Other scales, like Plato and Brix, are explicit measurements of sucrose content in a known volume of water. They measured SG by combining quantities of sucrose with water to a known volume, for example, one liter. They then measured the refractive index of the solutions. Because of this method, these scales are measurements of known quantities of sugar. Also understand that the refractive measurements were calibrated with sucrose or fructose -- generally not found in beer. While these sugars are very similar to maltose & dextrose, the scales are just a little off. Be consistent with your measurement methods and it won't matter much.
†† If you don't want to waste an entire pound of extract, two ounces honey by weight and pure water topped off until you have two cups by volume will give you the same concentration.

Mike Hedge pointed out to me that we now have a major distributor using Eventful to organize screenings on a local level. Back when Adventureland was released, I few fans found me to let me know that they had organized screening groups on MeetUp. Both of these are powerful tools, that the indie film community needs to make more use of.

The 159th Meeting of Noisebridge
Note-taker: Seth
Moderator: Rachel M
Introduction and Names
- What Noisebridge is about: "Noisebridge is a 501c3 nonprofit that provides a space for creation, collaboration, and learning about technology and creative projects. Noisebridge provides space, power tools, and infrastructure to help the public learn new skills and create cool things. Noisebridge continues to exist through and depends entirely on membership fees and donations. Our code of conduct is 'Be excellent to each other'."
- Round of introductions: What's your name, what do you do, and if you are new, how did you hear about Noisebridge? Start with the moderator and go left.
- A brief primer on consensus process: We agree and so should you! Only paid-up members can block consensus.
We have t-shirts and stickers! (Lots of them!)
Q. What are we going to do with them at Maker Faire?
A. Let's take all of them to the Faire and see if we can get rid of all of them there! The world of geekdom will descend upon Maker Faire before, during, and after the Faire.
Financial Report
Funds in bank: $13,871.86. This is a little bit low but it's the beginning of the month and we just paid rent, so it's not too bad.
Generally we now have $10,000 in the savings account and use about $5,000 as operating expenses, but we had to dip into the savings account to deal with the purchases of t-shirts and stickers. But we were able to restore that quickly.
Q. Can we invest money in a CD?
A. Actually, the t-shirts and stickers are a much better investment for Noisebridge right now. Interest rates are low but we get good returns in practice from shirts and stickers. We have made $1.10 in interest on our savings account.
Jared deposited $236 from the vending machine. Thanks!
Samsung is now manufacturing a Sidekick 4G running Android with a super great keyboard. Noisebridge isn't going to get one but the treasurer likes them a whole lot.
Membership Binder
- Read off any names from the binder for the past month.
- Anyone up for join this week should introduce themselves then leave the area in search of gifts (traditionally beer and a lime) for the rest of the group. The rest of the meeting should consense on whether they may join.
What's Going On at Noisebridge
Project Updates
Controlling music playback in the space from your smartphone or other computer
It's now very easy using any smartphone, by downloading any mpd client, to control the two music receivers that we have here and to control the music playback from your phone. You can also get mpd clients for your computer and control the music when you are in the space!
Fixed TV
Zack fixed the 42-inch TV and it could be placed onto a table with wheels and display various things and kinds of information while people are doing projects. It can take two simultaneous inputs in split-screen mode. Ideally there will be a computer attached to it and maybe a wireless keyboard and mouse.
Q. What inputs?
A. DVI up to 720p and 1080a. Two component, two composite inputs, S-video.
Q. Make a wiki page and an nburl for the wiki page and put a label on it.
A. Sure, please help me do this!
Q. What is the brand?
A. Gateway.
Q. What will the TV be called?
A. Per the treasurer, NBTV!
The TV is now called "NBTV". See [1]
It will perhaps have two computers to control the two computer inputs.
Hacker in residence
Mitch has been talking with Paul about having a hacker in residence. He is a grantwriter. He is proposing to write a grant proposal to have a hacker in residence.
Someone will sign this grant proposal and then it will be an actual proposal on behalf of Noisebridge.
Consensus items
(Add any new items for consensus to the Current Consensus Items page.)
Discussion Items
Noisebridge administering grants
Open source research under Noisebridge's ægis.
Can Noisebridge administer grants to let individuals get funding to work on open source projects? E.g., Jason, who has a specific open source project that he wants to get a grant to work on, to be administered by Noisebridge.
The money would presumably get paid to Noisebridge and it would be earmarked for paying a particular person to work on a particular thing in the name of Noisebridge. Publications about this would be done with a Noisebridge affiliation.
This does create responsibility for Noisebridge and reputational risk. Our bylaws permit this but we have never done it before.
In this case Jason would promise to make his work open source.
It's not clear who would do what and whether consensus is required.
Q. What is the procedure for the treasurer to be given earmarked funds, such as a grant for a specific purpose?
A. Send the treasurer an e-mail describing the nature, date, and amount of the transaction.
Q. But what will Noisebridge do in order to fulfill its obligations to administer the grant properly, to ensure that we comply with our obligations under the grant and as a non-profit organization? We need to keep track of this for tax reasons, among other things.
A. The treasurer will track the amount and purpose of the money allocated and expended for these purposes.
Q. Doesn't Noisebridge get some obligation to monitor what Jason does and that the purpose of the grant is fulfilled? What kind of oversight will Noisebridge exercise?
A. Yes. We could have a consensus item that says that we'll go forward with this and that one of our officers has volunteered to be the contact person and to perform the oversight, including an obligation for Jason to report on his progress.
We think that the consensus item would be to administer the grant.
Q. Does this need consensus?
A. Not sure, but we will proceed as a consensus item for now. We will also ask Paul for advice.
There is some general discussion about our uncertainty about whether this requires consensus and how Noisebridge ought to be handling decisions about grants.
New member shelves. We have $220 and we need $280. See Talk:Shelves.
End of Meeting
- PGP Key Signing could happen now, check the list to see who wants in on the action.
- Put back the membership binder by the Shrine.
- Save the meeting notes to the wiki.
- Send a copy of the meeting notes to the discussion list.
- Copy the Meeting Notes Template for next week's agenda and update the main wiki page's link to it.
- Enjoy a cocktail with your fellow hacker or robot.

Is there any variable that cron set when it's running a program ? If the script is running by cron, I'll skip some parts; otherwise invoke those parts.
How can I know if the bash script is started by cron ?
I'm not aware that
1) Make a hard link to the script file, so that, for example,

Louisville is known as the home of the Kentucky Derby, Brown-Forman, Papa John's, Muhammad Ali and Diane Sawyer.
But do outsiders really recognize the River City for its excellent cuisine?
That's what Southern Living magazine has been asking its readers to decide in an online contest that pits Louisville against several others in a quest to be crowned The South's Tastiest Town.
The competition is essentially a popularity contest, not to mention a savvy way to beef up the publication's online presence, since fans have been able to return to the website and vote once a day.
But what it's also become is the fuel for a feisty debate by some of Louisville's most notable culinary experts.
And for good reason: the city's cuisine is no stranger to the national spotlight.
Winston's Executive Chef John Castro whipped Bobby Flay on Food Network's "Throwdown" in 2008 with his perfectly constructed Hot Brown.
Seviche chef Anthony Lamas has captured the attention of the James Beard accolade – five times – and he won the "Extreme Chef" competition of Food Network in 2011.
And don't forget 610 Magnolia Owner and Chef Edward Lee, who remains one of the competitors on Bravo's "Top Chef: Texas," which airs Wednesday nights.
So is Louisville really The South's tastiest town?
Mayor Greg Fischer certainly thinks so.
"What other city can claim Bourbon as a food group like we do in Louisville?" he gibed, though he's serious about the city producing amazing food, particularly when it's a part of local supporting local.
Fischer has put much time and effort into plugging the farm to table movement (the act of delivering locally produced food to the consumer), an agenda that more "foodies" would like to see implemented.
Since Louisville consumes $3 billion worth of food yearly, it's understandable why Fischer wants to see that money stay within the state, never mind that it's healthier or educates the public about what goes into the process of cultivating what we consume.
Volare Chef Joshua Moore and his wife have taken their passion for using local to the extremes: they live on a ten-acre farm. "For me, it's a no-brainer," Moore explains. "The guest response (at Volare) is overwhelming. They want to know, 'What are you planting for fall crops?' If you can stay with your food from start to finish, you have no question as to how fresh it is."
Geoffrey Heyde, executive chef at The Village Anchor, agrees, though "it's just so expensive," he said. "I wish more restaurants would incorporate it, but I understand that a lot of them can't afford to."
Both chefs concurred that farm to table is what makes Louisville a great competitor for the South's tastiest town. "Of course I think Louisville should win," Moore said. "To me, Louisville's culinary scene is so diverse. It's a melting pot of cultures. We're really a small city, but with a huge culinary scene."
Edward Lee, owner and chef of 610 Magnolia, considers Louisville's diverse gastronomy to be an essential part of why Louisville was recognized in Southern Living's contest in the first place. "There's everything from high-end restaurants to hole-in-the-walls to ethnic foods. It's a great education in cuisine."
Lee believes many locals are committed to the food scene at present, which, in turn, fosters hope in future chefs to want to bring their skill to Louisville. "It speaks a lot when you can have people from all over the country feel welcome to open up a restaurant here in Louisville. It means that people are open-minded, that they want new things."
Seviche's Anthony Lamas, however, disagrees.
"We don't have the diversity of ethnic backgrounds and people. Louisville is nowhere near close to the food scene of Charlestown or New Orleans," he said.
"I think we're one of the best (food cities), definitely," he explained, "(But) we lack the history and the influence of the type of cuisine from the French, the African … the history of Charleston, their heirloom grains and beans and livestock – it's so much more evolved."
When pressed to declare who should win the contest, Lamas didn't miss a beat. "Charleston. So much has happened there in the last 5 years. (In Charleston), chefs are actually being their own farmers. A lot of us are doing it (now in Louisville), but I think they have really started it."
So what is Louisville missing that will catapult it into the company of superior food cities? "We (need to) get some major food events here, like the Charlestown Wine Festival," Lamas said. "These awesome, major festivals bring people from all over. We haven't had that big draw focusing on food yet."
Andrew "Andy" Myers, chef at The Anchorage Café agreed. "There are just more well-known chefs in Charleston and New Orleans. They're more established. Look at what New Orleans did with Cajun cuisine – it's a major style!" he said. "Louisville still deserves to win. Our style is more representative of American food in general."
As of press time, Louisville was in second place – with over 130,000 votes – in the contest.
That loyalty to the city's food scene is much appreciated. Ryan Rogers, chef de cuisine at The Anchorage Café, will open his own restaurant called Feast BBQ in April "People are really proud of their city here. It makes me feel more confident to go out and try my own thing."
Jared Schubert hasn't even opened his bar The Boiler Room – at The Pointe in Butchertown – yet (it's slated to open in April), but he's already been pegged one of the "Top 10 mixologists to watch" by Beverage Network, an industry magazine.
With such obvious talent, Schubert could go anywhere, yet he insists that he's right at home.
"Louisville is in the center of one of the largest distillation capitals in the world, so why would I want to go anywhere else?"
Schubert perfected the cocktail line-up at the now-defunct 732 Social, a restaurant that also executed the farm to table movement beautifully. He considers the experience a serious influence in his quest to make drinks using quality ingredients.
So, too, is the city's food scene and its people.
"If Louisville keeps being unique and very centered on their people and their flavor, people will notice."
Is Louisville The South's Tastiest Town?

I've started learning ExtJS 4 and Sencha Touch 2, and i really like it.
The main difference between Sencha products and jQuery(& others) is that instead of enhancing preexisting HTML, it generates its own DOM based on objects created in JavaScript.
Apps developed like this are great as intranet apps, but can you create a consumer oriented website using Sencha?(like an online store)
I see that you don't write any HTML code in ExtJS or Sencha Touch so i am wondering how can fully generated Javascript page be indexed by Search Engines like Google. As i know, the Google Bot only sees the plain HTML code.
Is there anyway to SEO a Sencha WebApp?
Kind Regards,
Dan Cearnau

On Saturday, between a couple of road trips that spanned the end of last week and the beginning of this, I managed to get out for a ride with Sam. It was, what has rapidly become, our standard weekend ride with little out of the ordinary. But, just as we were parting ways, we came to a stoplight and were greeted, a little too loudly, by a gray haired, ponytail wearing, helmetless roadie, "Hey guys!" Actually, I don't remember exactly what he said but it was annoyingly cheerful.
The thing about roadies (and I can say this because I'm one of them) is that we, as a whole, are often overly critical of ourselves, primarily, and, by extension, of others. On a ride we are constantly making snap judgements about the other riders we encounter. Oh, sure, most of our stereotyping is helpful-should I call out that I'm passing or will I just startle this guy off the road? If I put in the effort to close the gap, can I work with him? Does he need help with that flat repair? I wish I had that 6.0 Madone. If I did, he'd never be able to hang with me on this climb. So, with all of this internal judging going on, it's difficult to be any more friendly than a quick wave or a head nod (often, in my experience, completely ignored). This isn't to say we roadies are a rude bunch, we just don't have time. Many of us might enjoy cruising and chatting with our friends but, at the same time, we want to own the KOM on the Iron Point Road climb. So, we judge and we, sometimes, forget one thing…
After looking back at us and nodding at our half hearted waves, the ponytailed rider looked back again and greeted the next cyclists at the light in the same manner as if we were all his pals, his buddies, his friends. It was incredibly uncool. He was acting outside the norm, offering passing riders more than just a nod or the flick of a wrist while carefully apprising every aspect of the their bikes, clothing, equipment, form and (potential) ability. He was, simply, having fun.
I smiled that last 6 miles back to my house.

Evening all (apologies for the thread title....no prizes for guessing what I've been watching! Can't beat a little nostalgia)
Well, I'm feeling pretty annoyed at myself for ruining my last save. :o Drinking heavily while playing the game was a disaster waiting to happen, so I'm thankful it was only three seasons worth of game play. Anyway, enough of that, and on to a new challenge.
In all my time playing CM/FM, my greatest achievement came on CM 99/00 where I took Berwick Rangers to the UEFA Cup Final, and I'm yet to match anything like that since playing the new series of the game. I'm now searching for that kind of epic challenge, but as I've got plenty of experience playing in Scotland, I'm instead going to look at Wales (the lower reputation of the league makes it a really inviting challenge, too). I'm also going to make a slight change in how I play the game as I'm going to limit myself to signing just British and Irish players, where I'd normally do most of my shopping in France.
So then, the challenge is simple: take the lowest rep team in Wales and lead them to domestic dominance, before turning my attention to Europe. With only British & Irish players available to me, this should be a decent challenge. I've read some good threads based in Wales, so there's plenty of inspiration out there!
Anyway, the details:
Leagues loaded from England (BSS/N) Scotland (Div3) Ireland (First Division) NI (Second Division) and Wales
21,000 players and a large data base
EDIT: After 7 years in Wales I'm getting itchy feet, so there might just be another chapter to this career...

When making rice, what is the proper ratio of water that I should use?
Depends on the rice, of course - here are the most common types:
There isn't really a simple answer to this question due to the many variables of personal preference, rice type, water hardness, etc.
I suggest buying a proper rice cooker: Zojirushi NP-HBC10 5-1/2-Cup Rice Cooker and Warmer with Induction Heating System, Stainless Steel. (I love mine!)
The rice cooker has precise instructions and measurements for each type of rice, even the more obscure types.
You're better off going with 1" above the rice as a guide, if you're boiling long grain white rice, rather than a ratio of liquid to rice. (except minute rice -- my neighbor once asked me your same question, and I later found out she was cooking minute rice ... oops)
If you're going for paella, where it's a really wide dish, then I go with about 2:1, but some of that liquid might come from tomatoes.
If I'm cooking risotto, I tend to heat up twice the amount of stock as rice, but I might not use it all -- and if I think I might run out, after adding a ladle of stock to the rice, I'll add some water to heat up so it'll get a chance to warm up. (and it helps to have some extra liquid left over to deal with reheating leftovers)
And mentioning leftovers -- unlike @Dinah, I never cook less than 2c. of rice at a time -- leftovers come in handy for rice salad or nasi goreng (Indonedian-style fried rice), or to package up with whatever the main dish was for lunches the next day.
We typically eat jasmine rice. For 2 people we use 1/2 c rice to 3/4 c water. After boiling and letting the boiling settle, cook for 7 min.
Totally depends on the rice - I usually read the back of the bag or whatever.
For simplicities sake, I go for a ratio of 2:1. If there's still water in the rice after it's cooked, just keep it on the heat with the lid off for a while.
Also - If you're going to cook rice this way, it's important that you don't stir it whilst cooking.
I use a 1:1.5 ratio for boiling white rice, 1:2 for brown rice. The ratio depends on how processed the rice is and on cooking method used rather than rice type. My method is to add rice and water (salt) to pot, keep a lid on at all times, bring to a boil, leave on low heat and turn off heat 5-10 min before done. Aways successful that way, no stirring or draining needed. White rice done in 20min. Brown rice a bit more tricky but cooking on low heat for 40 min. should do the trick. Not using a lid would let more water evaporate, thus more water needed. You can fluff it up with a fork afterwards.
It also depends how you want to cook the rice. Steaming, boiling, in the oven, pilau...

Sandy Shapes Council Race in Rockaways
As Jacques Leandre and other City Council candidates canvassed Far Rockaway neighborhoods asking for votes, they often met an exasperating obstacle—houses vacant due to Sandy.
"It's happened hundreds of times: I've knocked on doors and people hadn't been there," he said. "I don't think anyone's life went uninterrupted."
Since the Oct. 29 storm, the council has held hearings discussing how to gird for future storms and how the city could have better prepared for Sandy.
But local leadership in Far Rockaway in Queens, one of the areas hardest hit, has been in transition since James Sanders Jr. won a Democratic primary in September and then in November was elected unopposed to the state Senate.
On Tuesday, eight candidates vied for Mr. Sanders's seat in a special election, and late Tuesday night, Donovan Richards, former chief of staff for Mr. Sanders, was leading with 30% of the 8,364 votes cast, according to the Associated Press. He had been endorsed by his former boss, who won three terms with overwhelming majorities.
Pesach Osina, an Orthodox Jewish candidate, narrowly trailed with 29.7%, or 26 votes. The Associated Press didn't call a winner.
Mr. Osina was highly visible in the campaign and apparently hoped to receive broad support in particular from the district's Jewish community. At several precincts, his yard signs outnumbered others, and a flatbed truck circled neighborhoods playing campaign songs in Hebrew on his behalf.
Mr. Leandre was third with 13.9%.
The three-month campaign had offered little room for subtle policy debate, said candidates, political consultants and voters. Sandy and its aftermath tinged the race as those hoping to succeed Mr. Sanders grappled with responses to District 31 voters, some of whose homes were washed away and many of whom are fighting insurance companies and struggling to get replacements for their flooded vehicles.
"People are disgusted, frustrated, angry and tired," said candidate Saywalah Kesselly, who received 1.8% of the votes. "This area still remains a depressed place. Things aren't OK here."
Sandy was an overriding theme in the southern Queens district, which the city said has 84,000 registered voters—the majority of them African-American—large swaths of District 31 emerged relatively unscathed by the storm. Besides Far Rockaway, the district includes Laurelton, Rosedale and Springfield Gardens. Candidates and residents raised other issues, including education and crime.
Voter turnout was half what it was in 2009, when the seat was last up for grabs. As with other special elections, the race didn't have a state or national slate to draw voters to the polls.
"Turnout in special elections is light, even in the best of times," said Michael Krasner, a political-science professor at Queens College. "Given the slow response from government at all levels, it likely considerably deepened the feelings of cynicism about government for many people."
Still, in candidates' appearances around the community, focus often turned to Sandy. In comments to news website the Rockawave, at least four of the five candidates who responded for interviews directly mentioned the storm. At a recent community forum, several of the candidates said they were greeted by residents upset about slow recovery efforts.
Evan Stavisky, a political consultant with a longtime history in Queens, said the winner would have the important role of serving as a liaison between city and state agencies and affected residents.
"Just as the council member to Lower Manhattan was an important part of the discussion following 9/11, the council member in the Rockaways is an important part of the discussion as the city, state and federal government spends billions in rebuilding," said Mr. Stavisky. "The storm obviously touched every part of the city, but probably nowhere quite as profoundly as the Rockaways."
Jean-Marie Fougere, a parent coordinator, said he cast his vote at Far Rockaway High School for Mr. Richards. Despite being unsatisfied with the city's response to the damage wrought by Sandy in Far Rockaway, Mr. Fougere said he was voting for Mr. Richards because he was a familiar face around the community.
"We have one candidate who is always in the community, and he helps a lot," said Mr. Fougere, who suffered damage to his roof and had no power for a month. He added: "We haven't gotten our fair share. We're still struggling with housing."
Mr. Kesselly said he had encountered people who still lacked hot water and electricity.
Selvena Brooks, a candidate who received 9.8% of the vote, said many voters she had spoken with asked her to fight for stronger infrastructure along coastal areas. "When I talk to people in Far Rockaway, they are just concerned with rebuilding their homes," she said.

So, as I like to shoot semi-high resolution panoramas and partial panoramas, I've been looking for a way to automate at least part of the process.
My first attempt, bolting my NN3 to the stepper motor shaft ended with a slightly less straight shaft. Thankfully, after reading the description of the new rotators for the NN5, I realized that a similar idea should work for a stepper drive. So, with a 1.5" ID thrust washer, a 1.5" OD x 1" long piece of aluminum, I made a coupler for my stepper motor, and a place for the NN5 arm to ride.
Initial tests are promising, I can get apparently back to almost the same pixel coming from the same direction and the same previous location. Coming just from the previous direction I'm seeing errors of about 6-10 pixels(85mm lens, Nikon D70) or about 0.02-0.6 degree error.
Absolute step size, which should average out to 1.8 degrees for this motor, varies by about 0.3 degrees. So I'm probably not going to be able to stitch using a template, but at least the shooting will be automated, and provided the automated control-point generator isn't too horrible, the work should be easy.
The next iteration will be to add a plate for the NN5 lower arm to ride on so it's not directly on the thrust bearing. Then a way to make it portable. Then maybe a worm drive, and then maybe a tilt axis worm drive... many months in the future.
Photos of the setup: http://www.wormley.com/gallery/v/house/paomc/panomc2/ and if you're really bored, a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-IRjAkAGFRA
Thanks for a wonderful product, the NN5 makes this idea so much more feasible for me.

text: On again with another tutorial based on a character or two from a film called "Jack and the Giant Slayer". It's supposed to be out March 1st of this year, and its' already getting good reviews. The kid that's in Warm Bodies (Nicholas Hoult) is playing the role of Jack, Stanley Tucci is Lord Roderick, Ewan McGregor is Elmont, and there is a few other actors that I'm not sure of. Anyways, this lesson is going to be on the actual giant in the movie who also happens to be the leader. Here is "how to draw Fallon the Giant" from Jack the Giant Slayer. Fallon is a giant that has two heads, one is voiced by Bill Nighy, and the other is voiced by John Kassir. Bill Nighy is the big headed giant which is also the one that makes the decisions. I watched the trailer for the future film and even though I'm not a fan of Jack and the Beanstalk, the fantasy aspect of the movie looks cool. So go ahead and have fun drawing Fallon, and I will prepare other lessons for you all. Adios and good luck.

I'm a big fan of PHP interactive mode (
php -a). Today I decided to install PHP 5.4 to play around a little bit. It's fun to use the new built-in server and all that stuff, but I was very sad when I discovered that the interactive mode doesn't work.
I installed PHP 5.4 on my Ubuntu by adding the PPA:
add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php5
apt-get update
apt-get install php5
And this is what I get when I run
php -a:
$ php -a
Interactive mode enabled
Aaaaand nothing more. As far as I know this PPA follows the newest PHP5 maintained by Debian PKG PHP Team and as far as I know the interactive mode is also usually broken on freshly installed Debians.
Any ideas on how to get it back? Preferably using some other PPA or at least without compiling - that's usually less painful.

Corestat for UltraSPARC T2/T2+
By travi on Nov 19, 2007
Corestat for UltraSPARC T2/T2+ :With the launch of UltraSPARC T2+ processor based servers, corestat needs an upgradation. Updated version of corestat is now available off the link from this blog. Also note that the same version (V1.2.3) should work on T5220, T5240 and T5240 servers.
Understanding processor utilization is important for performance analysis and capacity planning. With the launch of UltraSPARC T2 based servers I would like to revisit the topic of core utilization.
As we have seen earlier, for a Chip Multi Threaded (CMT) processor, like UltraSPARC T1, CPU utilization reported by conventional tools like mpstat/vmstat and core utilization reported using hardware performance counters in the processor are different metrics and both are equally important in performance analysis and tuning.
Before discussing the details about core utilization of UltraSPARC T2 and the details about corestat let us take a quick look at what does a core on UltraSPARC T2 look like. UltraSPARC T2 extends the CMT architecture of T1. It consists of eight cores where each core has eight hardware threads. Hardware threads within a core are grouped into two sets of four threads each. There are two integer pipelines within a core and each set of four threads share one integer pipeline. In this sense, the resources available for computation within a core are doubled from that in UltraSPARC T1. It is worth understanding that threads within a core do not switch pipelines and the assignment of threads to a pipeline is fixed and hardwired.
One more important addition to the compute resources within a core is a Floating Point Unit (FPU). Each core of T2, includes a FPU shared by all eight threads from that core. Other shared resources within a core include Level-1 Instruction (I) and Data (D) cache and Translation Look aside Buffers (TLBs) like I-TLB and D-TLB. All cores share a 4 MB Level-2 (L2) cache. Including these there are key features why both single thread and multi thread performance of UltraSPARC T2 is better than T1.
A quick look at the UltraSPARC T2 architecture features shows following enhancements which benefit single thread performance :
- Increased frequency - 1400 MHz
- Lower instruction latencies
- Better Floating Point performance
- Hardware TLB miss handling for I-TLB and D-TLB
- Larger D-TLB size (128 entries v/s 64 entries)
- Larger L2 cache (4 MB v/s 3 MB)
- Full support of VIS 2.0 instruction set. No kernel emulation
- Two integer pipelines per core
- Twice the number of hardware threads (64 v/s 32)
- Higher L2 cache set associativity. 16 way compared to 12 way
- Instruction cache being 8 way associative compared to 4 way
- Dedicated Floating point unit per core shared by all 8 strands, improved FP throughput
- Memory interface supports FBDIMMs for higher capacity and bandwidth
- Support for shared context feature where multiple contexts share the same entry in the TLB for mappings to the same address segment
- Streaming Processing Unit (SPU) per core for on chip encryption/decryption support
Considering these differences, corestat for UltraSPARC T2/T2+ has been enhanced and can be downloaded from here . The main enhancements are :
- It now reports the utilization of each pipeline separately. By default only the integer pipe utilization is reported.
- There is a new command line option "-g" added to report the FPU utilization along with integer utilization.
- Corestat detects frequency of the target system at run time.
While the usage remains same, corestat for UltraSPARC T2 can be used in two modes :
- For online monitoring purpose, it requires root privileges. This is the default mode of operation. Default reporting interval is 10 sec and it assumes the frequency of 1417 MHz.
- It can be used to report core utilization by post processing already sampled cpustat data using following command line :
-c pic0=Instr_cnt,pic1=Instr_FGU_arithmetic,
Frequency = 1050 MHz
Default mode : Report Integer Pipeline Utilization
-g : Report FPU usage
-v : Report version number
-f infile : Filename containing sampled cpustat data
-i interval : Reporting interval in sec (default = 10 sec)
-r freq : Processor frequency in MHz (default = 1417 MHz)

As far as interpretation of corestat data is concerned, all the points mentioned in an earlier blog with respect to T1,
hold good. Since core saturation (measured using corestat) and virtual
CPU saturation (measured using vmstat/mpstat) are two different
aspects, we need to monitor both simultaneously in order to determine
whether an application is likely to saturate the core by using fewer
application threads. In such cases, increasing workload (e.g. by
increasing the number of threads) may not yield any more performance.
On the other hand, most often we will see applications having high
Cycles Per Instructions (CPI) and thereby not being able to saturate
the cores fully before achieving 100% CPU utilization.
While I make this new version of corestat available here.. we are
already looking at a number of RFEs received as comments on my earlier
blog and via e-mails to me. Some of the points being considered. Stay
tuned !!

I saw recently that the i386 CPU is not going to be supported in the Linux Kernel 3.8 so does that mean that Ubuntu will only be available in the coming years in 64-bit?
No, it means that you won't be able to run Linux on the Intel 80386 chip, the original chip from Intel which supported 32-bit architecture. Those processors had clock speeds of 12-40 Mhz and were superseded by Intel 80486 and then Intel Pentium in early- and mid-1990th.
Other, more modern 32-bit chips (Pentium Pro and above) are still going to be supported. Those processors are characterized as having the i386 architecture but they have some improvements over the original 80386, the use of which allows the removal of some ugly crutches from Linux that are required for 80386 support:
Anecdote has it that there was some sentimental value in supporting 80386 processor as it was the processor that Linus Torvalds used when he developed the first version of Linux.
Also, despite i386 support present in Linux kernel up until version 3.8, in the recent years most Linux distributions were compiled with settings which made them incompatible with 80386 processor anyway. In particular, Ubuntu requires i686 (Pentium Pro) processor or above since Ubuntu 10.10.
Ubuntu hasn't run on proper "i386"'s for a long time, support for the processor was dropped in 10.10.

Are there any good short expositions of planar algebras out there? I am interested primarily in seeing the main definition and some explicit examples.
My paper with Emily and Noah about the
Emily and Noah wrote some really nice expository posts on planar algebras at the Secret Blogging Seminar. I also like Chris's posts on TQFTs and Planar Algebras to explain why I might care.
Vaughan Jones' paper "The planar algebra of a bipartite graph" is short and example-focused. It's got the "right" definition (phrased with operads) and the mechanics of the bipartite graph planar algebra. While the bipartite graph planar algebra isn't a subfactor planar algebra, it's pretty darn close.
A subfactor planar algebra, by the way, is one which meets restrictions on the sizes of the spaces involved and has an inner product. Unsurprisingly, they give rise to subfactors (through machinery of Popa).
Vijay Kodiyalam gave a series of polished lectures introducing to the planar algebras theory, the videos (HD) are available in the following link: Vijay Kodiyalam - Planar algebras - IMSc 2015

The Wrong Hostage (Large Print / Paperback, Large Print)
Orphaned at thirteen, Grace Silva clawed her way out of poverty and violence to become one of the most respected judges on the federal bench. Grace believes in the rule of law -- lives it, breathes it. She has always been buttoned up and buttoned down.
Except once.
Joe Faroe has learned that laws are made by politicians and politicians are all too human. He believes in the innocents, the ones getting ground up by governments that are too polarized or too corrupt to protect their own citizens.
Now Faroe is out of the business. Retired. He's through trying to save a world that doesn't want to be saved.
Then Grace comes to him, past and present collide, and Faroe finds himself sucked back into the shadows, tracking a violent killer who holds the life of Grace's son in his bloody hands.

CADIZ - A new era of making the most of Ohio's resources in an environmentally friendly way may be coming to the area with the Ohio Energy Park, a business community of companies with a focus on turning waste to clean energy.
A demonstration of a waste processing induction heat machine which converts raw materials into oil was held at the location in the Harrison County Industrial Park.
Don Cullen, managing member, Ohio Energy Park, said the facility utilizes proven technology in coal briquetting, but enhances and expands the process.
"This is the first energy park where we've combined coal technology with municipal solid waste household waste and with tires and other biomass," he said, noting all waste material that comes into the park will be utilized. "Each of the different technologies is synergistic with the other. What one company has as a waste is a feed stock that another company needs."
The initial step will involve setting up a coal briquetting facility before the machine's arrival. This is expected to be up and running within 60 days.
Once the machine is working three shifts, 20 hours daily, about 200 jobs are expected to be directly created, with several indirectly created jobs resulting from each.
"It effects a lot of people. It really does. It brings a lot of money into the community," said John Callagher, managing partner of Genex Renewable Fuels. He said the device could process any particular waste strain, whether home trash, tires or the coal waste in the area. The waste is processed independently through three different waste screens, dealing with coal, rubber, or municipal waste.
Prior to this, the material is steam-cooked until it is separated into components such as aluminum and plastic.
Tires, for example, are shredded into chunks and processed through a 2-inch tube wrapped with an induction heating coil which raises the temperature to 900 degrees. At that point, the tire material becomes gaseous. This gas may be distilled into oil.
Callagher added that the capacity of the machine can be scaled depending on need. The demonstration unit is transportable in three trailers and has a maximum capacity of 300 tons in a day. It has a correspondingly small footprint.
"That means it can be transported very quickly to any site and be very quickly put into operation. It's very easy to use," he said. "The machine you see here can be scaled up to twice or three times or four times or five times the capacity depending on what the client wants, but the process does not change."
He noted that the heat chamber has six controllers to manage the heat in the main chamber, the time and temperature of the given material.
Callagher said his organization has spoken with trash haulers, waste coal sites, tire locations and other outfits who see the potential benefits of the machine.
The establishment and full operation of a Harrison County-based machine should be seven or eight months. Callagher said they plan to begin processing coal waste material into briquettes before the machine's arrival.
"When the machine comes in and is in place there will be raw material here ready to process," he said.
He added that the machine will be built in Ohio with 80 percent of the equipment manufactured in Ohio.
In addition, the operation can be duplicated in other areas as it branches out. The people employed and trained here will be capable of operating this equipment anywhere within Appalachia.
"We expect this to be the training ground for the additional sites," he said.
He added that Harrison County's Industrial Park provided an ideal environment.
"It has a facility here. It has a high percentage of fine material that can be processed," he said. "We have a very pro-active community and government that wants to have it in the area and bring jobs."
John Hurley, president of Energy Inc., said the process had no flare off of gases released into the air.
Cullen added that there are 44 small municipal power plants in the state which have faced the expense of placing scrubbers on their stacks. Cullen said this will no longer be necessary.
"When you take coal and combust it, you need to clean the sulfur and the heavy metals out in the stack. We take it out before it gets into the boiler. We pre-treat rather than post-treat," he said.
"You'll see jobs being maintained," he said. "Those jobs are saved, and in saving those jobs we generate new jobs in manufacturing the renewable fuel."
Cullen, a Harrisville native, added that he was familiar with Harrison County, its needs and potential, as well as a responsibility for solving environmental issues brought about by the industry of the past.
"It appears to be a great concept. I'm very, very hopeful that it becomes reality," said county Commissioner Don Bethel. "If this is the beginning of something great, I'm certainly thankful that it was started in Harrison County."

Washington, DC –A team led by Vittorio Gallo, PhD, Director of the Center for Neuroscience Research at Children's National Health System and professor of pediatrics at the George Washington University (GW) School of Medicine and Health Sciences (SMHS), have uncovered direct evidence that procedures targeting a cell receptor within a certain time frame can prevent complications linked to brain injuries among premature children. The study's first author, Joseph Scafidi, MD, is a child neurologist at Children's National, a principal investigator at the Center for Neuroscience Research, and an assistant professor of neurology at GW SMHS. Their findings have led to a greater understanding of perinatal complications that have until now been poorly understood, the researchers said. The treatment is feasible for premature children with diffuse white matter injury that results in chronic neurodevelopmental impairments. The developments were reported in a recent article, "Intranasal Epidermal Growth Factor Treatment Rescues Neonatal Brain Injury" published in Nature. "We are very committed to advancing our understanding of perinatal brain injury, with the ultimate goal of developing new therapeutic approaches that will improve functional recovery in premature children," Gallo said.Gallo praised the research as the result of a multidisciplinary team effort between investigators at Children's National, Center for Neuroscience Research, Yale University School of Medicine and Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. The study focused on treating perinatal hypoxia related to immature lung development in brain injuries among premature babies. Chronic neonatal hypoxia is caused by insufficient gas exchange from poor lung development.A majority of premature children exhibit decreased gray and white matter volumes in the brain because premature birth has a negative impact on the structural and functional integrity of the brain. Specifically, the cell protein in question is known as epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), located on the cell surface, and is often targeted in efforts to diminish tumors. The cells are known as oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs). A lack of OPCs or a failure in their maturation can impair recovery of neurological functions. "Our study provides direct evidence that targeting EGFR in OPCs at a specific time after injury is clinically feasible and applicable for the treatment of premature children with white matter injury," the researchers wrote in Nature. As of now, they added: "There are no clinically relevant treatments available that improve function in the growing population of very preterm infants with neonatal brain injury."Their findings "demonstrate the considerable complexity of gray and white matter injury observed in premature brain and identify a need for global intervention," Gallo said.Contact: Emily Hartman or Joe Cantlupe at 202-476-4500.

Nick, I just was "thinking out loud" again as a comment to Dennis. I have all the equipment I need -- right now.
But as long as we are talking -- a long time ago, I suggested a ball head with a long neck. A 6-12 inch neck. That single ball head would take the place of a leveler and a nadir adapter. I use a ball head right now as a nadir adapter when I use a tripod but the neck is not quite long enough to ultimately eliminate all of the tripod. I usually have to patch a little piece of one leg -- depending on how the shadows fall.
The way I use it is just flop it over so my NN3 sticks straight out at 90 degrees then adjust the upper arm to point the camera at the nadir point. Real easy and fast. And fast is good outside when shadows are moving.
