Family background[edit]
Wong is a third-generation Chinese Malaysian: his Hakka grandfather, Wong Men (born 1901-November 1988), emigrated from Yingde to Laoshimei (老鼠尾) village in Qingyuan county[7] of Guangdong province to the Straits Settlements via Singapore in 1912 before settling down in the tin mining region of the Kinta District. The eldest of five siblings, Wong was born in Ipoh and grew up in the village of Ampang Baru, a wooden house unit number 200. His father Wong Yon Loong (born 1941) is a proponent of mainstream Chinese education and had served as headmaster in various primary schools in Kinta district.[citation needed] His second-generation Fuzhou-descendant mother, Goh Swee Kim (born 24 December 1936 – 1 December 1999) was an educationist, having been headmistress at various Chinese primary schools in Perak.[citation needed] Despite being Chinese educationists, they elect to send Wong to a Methodist school for an English education[citation needed].
Wong graduated with two bachelor's degrees from National University of Singapore, where he further his studies after completing his high school at Han Chiang High School in Penang. He did his secondary education in Anderson School, Ipoh after leaving Seri Putera (Seri Kepayang) secondary school in Fair Park, Ipoh as well as Ho Seng Ong Methodist primary school in Canning Garden, Ipoh. He spoke a number of languages including Mandarin, Cantonese, Hakka, Hokkien, Malay, English and a smattering of French, Korean and Japanese.
Wong led a campaign to save the Chinese Language Society in Anderson School from closure in 1982.[citation needed] He presided over both the Geographical Society as well as Photographic Club in Anderson School from 1982-83.[citation needed] At the National University of Singapore, Wong headed the Architecture, Building and Estate Management (ABEM) Club serving as the President in 1989-90; as well as elected President of The Architecture Society of National University of Singapore (TASNUS)[8] also in 1989-90. He served the Student Union 10th and 11th Councils and served as the Secretary of Disciplinary Commission, looking into the voting abuse cases in 1990 Student Union elections.[citation needed]
Wong's interests include educating industrialists and entrepreneurs[who?] on Companies Act, the roles of legal entity, protection of minority shareholders' rights and the methodologies of fund raising. He introduced the concepts of aspirational visibility and aspirational clarity to entrepreneurs from China that attended his Entrepreneurs Roundtable networks, and his Miracles of Capital series of lectures. Wong was attributed[by whom?] as the origin of certain terms including capital mechanism and popular sayings among Chinese-speaking entrepreneurs and investors: 您的选择是您的选择;我的选择决定您的选择 (roughly translated to: Your choice is your choice, but my choice determines your choice) 可控制结果的叫'投资',不可控制结果的叫'赌博' (Any resources put into uncontrollable-outcome is called gambling, while any resources put into a controlled-outcome is called an investment; and 不符合您逻辑思维的就叫'奇迹' (Anything that does not comply to your logic is called a miracle.)[9]
Wong practised Zen dispensation methodology, using a series of simple lines in probing and questioning. He uses mental displacement, disposition and Koan to convey business ideas, techniques and methodologies.[citation needed] He calls it the idiot's method of clarifying thoughts, a technique he uses in his lectures and presentations.[citation needed] Wong teaches corporate restructuring, financial engineering, Financial Road Maps, forward looking term sheet in corporate valuations.[citation needed]
Pakistan ventures[edit]
Wong's first foray into Pakistan market was the purchase of US Publisher Pvt. Ltd.[10] of the Jamal's Yellow Pages directory. He had been credited[by whom?] to have turned the company around and made it into one of the most profitable and largest directory publishing arms in Pakistan.[citation needed] Apart from Bahrain, he uses Karachi as his main base as a stage into Middle East markets.[citation needed]
Together with Ecommerce Gateway co-founder Dr. Khursheed Nizam,[2] Wong helped jump-start and developed the young M.I.C.E. industry in Pakistan in the early 2000s.[citation needed] New to CommerceNet then, Wong led trade delegations to Pakistan[11][12] from 2001 to 2007. From early-2008, he shifted his focus to building various international real estate funds with his Pakistan and China investment networks, investing and launching real estates projects internationally.[which?]
Wong founded the ITCN Asia series (named after Infocomm Technologies CommerceNet Asia) in Karachi, first held in March 2001. The project gained support from the Governor of Sindh then, H.E. Muhammad Mian Soomro[13] and subsequently H.E. Dr. Ishrat Ul Ebad Khan,[14] the succeeding Governor; and the then Sindh Finance Minister, Senator Dr. Abdul Hafeez Shaikh,[15] as a catalyst for investment into Karachi. The project was international in scope,[16] with the support and attendance of former President Pervez Musharraf.[citation needed]
Wong established a physical MuslimBIG[17] trade series. That was after several failed online attempts including MuslimBizHub and ePortal Exchange. He is an associate of the Islamic Chamber of Commerce[18] and the former secretary general H.E. Aqeel Ahmad Al-Jassem.
Wong announced his intention to leave his Ecommerce Gateway to focus on his Guangdong Portfolios and Indian Ocean and South African investments at the end of 2009. He however, maintained an interest in e-health, telemedical and remote care initiatives.[citation needed]
Wong planned the new 250 acres (1.0 km2) Dadabhoy University[19] Campus in Hawkesbay, run privately by a not-for-profit foundation. The new campus is expected to ultimately house up to 28,000 undergraduates when fully developed.[citation needed] Wong proposed an integrated student and social housing scheme as part of the university township development, as a measure to partly relieve some pressure from Karachi's housing shortages.
Asean and East Asia ventures[edit]
Wong's Pan-ASEAN ventures are mostly centred in Bangkok, Phnom Penh with new projects in Jakarta.[citation needed] His known ventures are mostly related to environmental design, waste recycling, material science and project financing. His venture portfolio companies work with the promoter of Bogor Cyber Park[20] in Indonesia.
He had financed high-risk Cambodian projects[which?] originally through the first venture capital company in the kingdom. He later withdrew from Cambodian market. He focused on environmental friendly building materials substitutes, including environmental bricks. He relocated his resources from Cambodia to Phuket, Thailand, for a while before consolidating the factories to Malaysia and China. In mid 2011, Wong started restructured his investments in Asean and East Asia to have the headquarters and operations systematically relocated to Hong Kong.
Wong's ventures in South Korea and Japan are less well documented. He focused on P2P crowd-sourcing, finance related investments and those related to e-Commerce ventures in these countries.
Bahrain, Middle East and North Africa ventures[edit]
Wong had co-founded Middle-east Transit Corporation (METRANS), together with Sheikh Saud bin Salman Al-Khalifa and Abdul Wahab Al-Zaid. The Bahrain-based company extends its arm over the entire Middle-east. The company had arranged for the facilitation of Monorail proposal into the City of Medina in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, working with MTrans Monorail of Malaysia. He had also financed MTrans Monorail's planners to explore the feasibility of Monorail Urban Transit into cities of Amman (Jordan), Istanbul and Ankara (Turkey), Karachi (Pakistan) as well as Cairo (Egypt). Wong aimed to move his Middle-east base away from Bahrain to Qatar.
Wong was an associate of the late Mr. Haitham O. Himut[21] who founded Strategic Enterprise Corporation (SECORP)[22] of Saudi Arabia. Haitham was also a shareholder in METRANS and was also involved in the original iTeknocity proposal of Bahrain.[citation needed] Haitham persuaded Wong to invest into Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region.[citation needed] Wong initially represented SECORP in Singapore until 2006 and extended his support for SECORP via the CNSG Consulting Group.[citation needed] The relationship led to the preparation of venture strategies covering Sudan projects, including the NGIP Programmes within the proposed Nubia Free Zone, in the Arabic-speaking part of North Sudan.[citation needed] SECORP also persuaded WONG to explore Ain Al-Sukhna in Egypt for a new technology township development. SECORP also lef Wong to Indonesia working on a version of Bogor Cyber Park proposal, taking up two of the seven plots in Phase I. Wong wrote off the bulk of his investment in MENA after the passing of Haitham, which halted all the projects.[citation needed] He shifted his focus to Côte d'Azur in France and Athens in Greece.
While most of his ventures in Saudi Arabia, including exhibitions (e.g. ITCN Saudi Arabia - Dammam),[23][24] are all located to the Eastern Province, he was interested in 'Asir province and around the Red Sea for higher value-add technologies, health sciences and sustainable urban redevelopment projects. His difficulties in securing a feasible site in 'Asir prompted him to finally focused his efforts on African continent instead.[citation needed]
China ventures[edit]
Wong first forayed into China in 1992 entering the new Hainan province then. His initially focused on construction management; architectural and interior design; as well as business facilitation and networking sectors. Subsequently, Wong operates out of the main cities of Guangzhou, Beijing, and limited exposure in Nanjing before broadening further to Shanghai, Chengdu and Xiamen. He has interests in hospitality, tourism planning and development projects.[citation needed] He is linked to more than ten separate and independent private equity groups, now loosely known as the 'Guangdong Portfolios'.[citation needed] Wong attempted to set up a Beijing-based cluster, acting as their PEC. He was associated with more than 1000 Chinese entrepreneurs, private equities and strategic investors operating out of ASEAN into China.[citation needed]
Wong worked on the entry of various China's private equities in their internationalisation into ASEAN under the MOC acronym.[citation needed] Some had further moved into South Asia, Middle-East and Africa regions. Wong worked in the Chinese automobile market, linking-up Bufori[25] with a local master distributor, headquartered in the Shanghai for the Chinese automotive market.
Wong set up environmentally friendly cellular lightweight concrete factories in Qingdao and Chongqing, but divested after the Chinese partners failed to get further funding for their project. Operating out of Shanghai in a UNESCO heritage building by the Suzhou Creek, Wong incubated a portfolio of corporate entities in Guangdong, Beijing, Shanghai, Sichuan, Xiamen and Fujian provinces. The loosely grouped investment initiatives are known[by whom?] as 'The Cross-Straits Portfolio' focusing in Fujian and Taiwan projects. He also known conceived and invested into the Black Diamond Digital Studio, a corporate video production house in China focused on high-end animation, digital visualising and 3-D modelling.
Wong teamed up with a group of his best students from Shandong in mid-2013 coming together to set up Level 26 Venture Capital group which was launched with much fanfare over Global Entrepreneurs Roundtable in the city of Weifang, China.
Malaysia ventures[edit]
Wong pushed the investment and venture funding community via the setting up of MOC groups and platforms. He leads, guides and pushed these groups towards 'green urbanism'. He was appointed the Chief Executive Officer of MOC Capital Berhad in July 2015 and handles investments into capital mechanism savvy companies. His personal investment focus leans toward large-scale community projects including water filtration, waste recovery and recycling, top-soil recovery and rehabilitation techniques and energy saving gadgets and fittings, including EV Solar Berhad. He initiated feasibility studies into large-scale topsoil rehabilitation programmes.[citation needed] He aims to reverse desertification after seeing sandy barren ex-mining land sprinkled all over his hometown. He further resolved to transform arid regions into arable land after the arid exposure to outskirts of Karachi, Pakistan and vast deserts of Inner Mongolia, China, and the Karoo of South Africa. Wong is interested in agriculture, including vertical farming. Early pilot projects include one aimed at transforming Lanzhou's barren soil did not yield any positive results. He implemented further application testing, using a formula of water retention gel mixture with barren soil.[citation needed] Critics[who?] pointed that Wong's 'fanaticism' towards environmental projects blinded him and often alienated him from other arising opportunities.[citation needed]
Wong's associates include founders of Yee Hup; Kinta Switchgear; and especially MTrans where he helped the company in breaking into regional urban transit markets, particularly in Middle-east and South Asia.[citation needed] The same applies to Bufori Motor Car company[25] in Kepong, Malaysia.
His early Malaysian ventures had ended in failures, including the early dotcom days when he invested heavily in the website www.ipoh.com under Ipohcom and Ipohcom Technologies. Critics[who?] had labeled him having too emotional attachment to his hometown that clouded his otherwise cutting-edge investment judgment, typical pattern in his early ventures. He chose Penang and the less popular Kuala Terengganu to build his Malaysian business bases instead of Ipoh, including Penang Hill and the Cameron Highlands, where he developed a series of tourism-based investments. He initiated the Global Entrepreneurs Roundtable (GER)[26] in Kuala Terengganu, together with Terengganu Chinese Chamber of Commerce and Industry (TCCCI), for community upgrading and think-tank activities.[27] The series grew and concluded with the 8th GER held in Kuala Lumpur.[28][29] He financed his proxies in the development of high-end boutique bungalows, similar to business models he replicated in China as well as Garden Route, South Africa. His lesser-known initiatives include several Private-REIT, with the redevelopment of older housing into investable quality housing stock in Kuala Lumpur, and Singapore.
Wong took an interest in MOC Capital Berhad (MOCC)[30] and served as CEO of the group. He is also the founding partner of M Concept Capital Berhad (MCCB)[31] as well as co-founded AlphaCap Berhad, and incubator in Kuala Lumpur focusing in technology companies.
Mauritius ventures[edit]
Wong's participation in Mauritius include conceptualising and master planning the Solares Integrated Resort Scheme[32] (IRS) at Flic-en-Flac,[33] the largest Integrated Resort Scheme in Mauritius. Solares IRS is better known as the first planned township in Mauritius and a destination resort, and was among the first IRS approved by the government of Navinchandra Ramgoolam.[citation needed]
As an architect and urban planner, created a new proposed Uptown for Port Louis. He incorporated this into his transportation proposal for the city. He was commissioned by French national Patrick Yaich in 2008 to work on an Uptown proposal at a site within Port Louis, not far from his original Uptown location in his major transportation proposal. The land that Wong had designed on belonged to United Docks Limited.[citation needed] Yaich had commissioned other architects from Dubai and United States to also propose a design each, but Wong's proposal integrated financial engineering as part of the possible solution. He worked subsequently with United Docks Limited to plan the Port Louis Uptown proposal in Caudan.[citation needed] <-- sources: Minutes Of United Docks Limited states that the project is KIV'ed until clearance from the government is secured.-->
One of his projects was the Mauritius Monorail[34] lobby that he helped raise the initial finance and support.[35] by both proponents and opponents to the idea. The promotion of MTrans Technology Berhad's monorail (now Scomi Rail)[36] [37] as an alternative to Mauritius' buses and diesel cars. He lobbied MTrans to use Mauritius as a base to serve African region, notably South Africa and Madagascar.[citation needed] He is an associate of MTrans founder Mr. David Chew Keat Soon, who continues to control MTrans International Limited of Hong Kong. He also financed a study on whether Madagascar can be an alternative showcase to modern land and air transport solution in Africa as an alternative to Mauritius, having traveled to Antananarivo and had met Marc Ravalomanana when he was still the president there in late 2007.[citation needed]
Singapore ventures[edit]
Wong started the E-Global[38] series, an award recognising intellectual ideas of aspiring and rising young individuals in Singapore. He collaborated with AMPRO, a Malay Muslim professional business organisation; Junior Chamber International, City JC Singapore; Innovators and Entrepreneur Association of Singapore (IdEAS) and other organisations to launch the E-Global Awards.
He partnered with Inderjit Singh,[39] Dr. Khursheed Nizam and other Pakistani investor other Pakistani investor[who?] to hold Ecommerce Gateway as a private investment holding company for Pakistan business ventures. He later moved into private equity investment in 2004 after seeing the environmental destruction brought by the tsunami.[citation needed] His earlier acquisitions are all environmental related companies.
He was a partner in the desktop publishing firm Fu Manchu Designs (1991–93); worked in digital imaging and archiving where he authored the business plan and co-founded CD Imaging (1991–95), now known as Fotohub; was a founding partner in Rongsak & Shyan, an architecture visualising company (1994–96) before setting up his own architecture practice of Shyan Associates in end-1996.[citation needed] He headed CommerceTrust Limited, a public company founded by Dr. Toh See Kiat,[40] a former member of parliament in Singapore.
Wong took over the leadership of CommerceNet Singapore in March 2000 as the Chief Executive Officer at the end of dotcom era, where he led its rebranding as 'CNSG', incubating companies that are undergoing transformation prior to seeking a listing on international stock exchanges as well as firms that had failed to secure normal funding from the open market. <--He is said to learn and mastered his craft during this time.--> He also worked in the trust mark certification market in Singapore, rolling out CaseTrust before the internal split in CASE that led to a split between CNSG, Retail Promotion Centre and new CASE management. The split subsequently led to the launch of ConsumerTrust, BusinessTrust and PrivacyTrust in the trust mark market deployment programme. The programme was incorporated under the TrustSg programme. The programme subsequently made it to be part of Asia-Pacific Trustmark Alliance and Global Trustmark Alliance initiatives.[41]
Wong co-founded the CNSG Consulting Group with Lawrence CS Ng, who currently heads the group. The group takes on projects mostly within ASEAN region and China. The consulting group often acts in tandem with CommerceNet's Consulting Partners. Together, they changed the consulting group into private equity consultants (PEC) and a financial platform to 'project manage' leveraged buy-outs, corporate raids and reverse take-overs. The group led mergers and acquisitions in ASEAN and assembled the 'Guangdong Portfolios'[citation needed] . Wong worked to build MOC Global Limited[42] and designed its revenue streams via CatalystX, and iDX to replicate his efforts in China, from 2014 to mid 2015 before he was ousted by two of his lieutenants, which led him to set up a new investment company, a public company focused on investing in high risk ventures.
South Africa ventures[edit]
Wong set up an investment base in South Africa under a new Private Equity group with an initial focus trained on Western Cape. He shifted his focus to the African region, despite lacking strong networks unlike those seen in ASEAN and the Far East. His earlier losses in Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region had nearly wiped out his entire portfolio.[citation needed] His earlier interest in Africa was held back by the difficulties of geo-political and social events, including the setbacks in Madagascar, the unstable Sudan, the Ain Al-Sukhna project in Egypt, which resulted to the delay in the market entry and subsequent limited presence in the continent[citation needed]
He led an integrated project with equity interest by FirstRand Group[43] in George, a second line city in South Africa's Western Cape. His design firm was subsequently commissioned to design[44] a notable MICE-centric R28 billion urban development project there, better known as Destiny Africa.[45][46] The project was unveiled by the Premier of Western Cape, Helen Zille on 6 November 2009.[47] Wong maps REIT model with a combination of a hybrid project finance and corporate finance model into real estate development. The developers however chose to sell off the project with largest approved urban bulk instead of developing it.[citation needed]
Wong developed a keen interest in Boutique Hotel sectors. Much of his initiatives included looking for potential sites regionally in mid-2010. He launched what he called an "integrated global procurement programme" originally seeded into M2C International of Hong Kong, also known as Gloproc, but the project suffered loses and leading to the closure of the South African operations. It was originally conceived to serve the "Destiny Africa" project, but after the stagnation of the project, Gloproc was changed to a stand-alone programme in Cape Town. The focus to Velodrome project in Cape Town yields little progress and led to its closure. Other known initiatives were in collaboration with a small core group of young consultants, entrepreneurs and private equities, mostly graduates from University of Stellenbosch, working on transformation of education, training and industry-centric initiatives.
Wong also invested into Lormont, a specialty collectible wine company via his Singapore joint-investment holding company, ShyanWest. He holds an equity jointly with Franco van der Weisthuizen. He is also linked to a new South African diamond investment fund based in ASEAN.[citation needed]
South America[edit]
Wong attempted to enter the market via Venezuela as part of a global procurement center, but without success.[citation needed]

Now, image you have configuration A, B, C, D and E which are depending on configuration Z. Three months are passing.
Now assume you want to switch from configuration Z to X, maybe because it is a configuration with which you tested a lot of different settings on different build agents. And you want to roll out those changes. And you do not want to enforce CI downtimes for developers just because you are manually copying configuration settings around you already have tested successfully with configuration X.
So to switch a dependency configuration Z to a different configuration X and to switch all dependent configurations to this new configuration: How do you still know then which configurations are still depending on Z?
Thanks - Stefan

I am playing around with Google Course Builder. It's built using Google App Engine and the webapp2 framework.
I am not very familiar with webapp2 and routing in general and I think that's the reason for my doubt. And perhaps the people who have previously worked on GCB would be able to answer this question.
I am editing a view (as in MVC). It's an HTML file. I created a hyperlink to an another view (which is an HTML file I created myself), but I am getting a 404 when I click on the link.
I tried out all possible variations to the file location.
would open "localhost:8080/views/doubts.html". But it gives me a 404 even thought he file exists. I tried out all variations ("/views/doubts", just "doubts.html", "doubts" and so on).
Perhaps direct access to the views might be blocked by some other part of the application. In such a case, what is the preferred way to go about it? Do I have to create a controller which redirects or so? I have never used MVC before.

I'm a fan of Charley Chase's work from the silent era, especially the
two-reel comedies he made for the Hal Roach studio in the mid- to late
1920s, but I've yet to find a talkie that shows off this uniquely
talented and generally under-appreciated comedian to best advantage.
Now We'll Tell One is a pleasant short with a couple of good sequences,
but it never comes close to equaling the level of comic inspiration
found in Charley's silent classics. There are certainly worse ways you
could spend the twenty minutes it takes to watch this, but based on the
evidence found here a first-time viewer unfamiliar with Chase's earlier
movies could be forgiven for concluding that his reputation as a great
comedian is exaggerated.
Our story concerns an eccentric scientist who has invented a device for transferring personality from one individual to another, a process accomplished through the wearing of what looks like an electrified belt. The scientist demonstrates his device on a stage before an audience of colleagues in a medical college. Several volunteers (each of whom, we're told, has a personality sharply contrasting with the others) take turns trying on the belt, and as each one does so the scientist throws various switches on his fearsome-looking machinery, and thus transfers that volunteer's personality traits to the main subject of the experiment, ten miles away. The subject is an elderly man who happens to be the grandfather of Muriel, who is the girlfriend of Charley, a timid soul who lacks the nerve to propose marriage to her. It's also established that neither Muriel nor Charley is aware of the nature of the experiment in which Grandpa is participating.
You with me so far? Good. Well, as it turns out, the first volunteer on the medical school stage is an acrobat, and when his "personality" is transferred to Grandpa ten miles away the old man finds himself turning back-flips uncontrollably. Grandpa is unhappy about this and promptly quits, pulling off his belt, throwing it down, and stomping off in disgust. For no good reason Charley claims the belt, puts it on and leaves. Meanwhile, back at the medical college, the scientist is unaware that his subject has quit the experiment, and continues to switch the belt from one volunteer to the next. Thus, for the rest of the movie, Charley's personality abruptly switches from one extreme to another, usually at the worst possible moment and causing him much embarrassment, but ultimately in a manner that allows him to save the day.
So, that's the plot. I don't know if this is a remake of an earlier silent film, but my feeling is that this kind of wacky farcical story might have worked better without sound. We're more willing to accept this sort of thing in the unreal world of silent cinema. The premise is just so goofy to begin with it would have required expert handling to put it across, but in this case the execution isn't all it might have been. For starters, Charley himself is not as likable as he was in his silent comedies, probably because for the sake of the plot it was necessary to establish him as a wimp early on, and frankly a wimp doesn't make a good leading man. Charley is all too convincingly wimpy, even giving his character a nervous giggle that is quite irritating. And unfortunately this film lacks the colorful supporting players found in most other Roach comedies of the day; there's no Billy Gilbert, Mae Busch or Jimmy Finlayson on hand to enliven the proceedings. Another drawback: at the time this film was made the Roach studio was facing financial difficulties, forcing a cut-back on special effects. Thus when Charley assumes the personality of a motorcycle stunt rider we settle back to enjoy a 'thrill' sequence, but we're disappointed -- or I was, anyway -- to find ourselves watching Charley cavort on an obviously stationary motorbike parked in front of a rear-projection screen. The cheesy effects are a big letdown. (Budget cuts similarly hurt the chase sequence in Laurel & Hardy's County Hospital, made around this same time.) On the plus side, there's a funny scene when Charley goes to ask Muriel's father for her hand in marriage, just as the scientist places the belt on a swishy "modern dancer." Muriel's father watches in bewilderment as Charley prances about in pseudo-Isadora Duncan fashion. Now We'll Tell One also benefits from the delightful background music of Le Roy Shield, found in most of the Roach comedies of the period. And while this movie lacks the the more familiar contract players in supporting roles, leading lady Muriel Evans is charming, and decidedly easy on the eyes.
In sum, this is a mildly diverting comedy for the not-too-demanding viewer, but anyone interested in discovering why Charley Chase is considered one of the great unsung comic talents of the movies should seek out such gems of the 1920s as Innocent Husbands or Long Fliv the King. Meanwhile, I'm still searching for a Charley Chase talkie that rises to the admirably high standard he established in the silent days.
Charley Chase had a penchant for taking a patently absurd, fanciful
premise, and by focusing on its internal logic and minute real-word
social consequences, turning into a hilarious and memorable two-reel
comedy short. This produced some of his best films, and "Now We'll Tell
One" follows this pattern. Unfortunately, it doesn't work as well here
as it does in some of his other shorts, but this film is still good for
more than a few good laughs.
Here, Charley plays a fashion-conscious wimp who picks up an ostentatious new belt that happens to be part of a newly-developed scientific apparatus which can switch people's personalities. The operators think that Charley's girlfriend's grandfather is their test subject and send a long series of different characters through the belt on the other end, with typically uncomfortable results for Charley.
This setup, while amusing, is not as simple as perhaps it could be in a comedy that has to develop in only twenty minutes, and there's a little too much "machinery" in evidence. It also doesn't follow much of an internal logic, with nothing by way of explanation given for the way this experiment is arranged. Mainly it gives us a chance to see a series of almost episodic gags that present themselves. Charley is funny is an Arabian sheik, and it's funnier when his girlfriend starts playing along after he is changed back. Further quick situation gags when a boxer, a drunk (why?), and a very fey ballet dancer are put through the machine, but it doesn't build much.
Unfortunately, which could have been a funny sequence with the timid Charley jumping on a motorcycle is spoiled by unconvincing back projection. It probably would have been wiser to rework the sequence if it couldn't be done with stunts.
Of all the Charley Chase shorts I've seen, this is one of the very oddest, and it is not the most well-structured like some of the other gems he produced, but it is lots of fun the whole way through and gets some definite laughs, which is what a comedy should do.

"We have again become pious"- so do those apostates confess; and some of them are still too pusillanimous thus to confess.
To them I look into the eye,- before them I say it to their face and to the blush on their cheeks: You are those who again pray!
It is shameful to pray! Not for all, but for you, and me, and whoever has his conscience in his head. For you it is shameful to pray!
You know it well: the faint-hearted devil in you, which would rather fold its arms, and place its hands in its bosom, and take it easier:- this faint-hearted devil persuades you that "there is a God!"
Thereby, however, do you belong to the light-dreading type, to whom light never permits repose: now must you daily thrust your head deeper into obscurity and vapor!
And verily, you choose the hour well: for just now do the nocturnal birds again fly abroad. The hour has come for all light-dreading people, the vesper hour and leisure hour, when they do not- "take leisure."
I hear it and smell it: it has come- their hour for hunt and procession, not indeed for a wild hunt, but for a tame, lame, snuffling, soft-treaders', soft-prayers' hunt,-
-For a hunt after susceptible simpletons: all mouse-traps for the heart have again been set! And whenever I lift a curtain, a night-moth rushes out of it.
Did it perhaps squat there along with another night-moth? For everywhere do I smell small concealed communities; and wherever there are closets there are new devotees therein, and the atmosphere of devotees.
They sit for long evenings beside one another, and say: "Let us again become like little children and say, 'good God!'"- ruined in mouths and stomachs by the pious confectioners.
Or they look for long evenings at a crafty, lurking cross-spider, that preaches prudence to the spiders themselves, and teaches that "under crosses it is good for web-spinning!"
Or they sit all day at swamps with angle-rods, and on that account think themselves profound; but whoever fishes where there are no fish, I do not even call him superficial!
Or they learn in godly-gay style to play the harp with a hymn-poet, who would rather harp himself into the heart of young girls:- for he has tired of old girls and their praises.
Or they learn to shudder with a learned semi-madcap, who waits in darkened rooms for spirits to come to him- and the spirit runs away entirely!
Or they listen to an old roving howl- and growl-piper, who has learned from the sad winds the sadness of sounds; now pips he as the wind, and preaches sadness in sad strains.
And some of them have even become night-watchmen: they know now how to blow horns, and go about at night and awaken old things which have long fallen asleep.
Five words about old things did I hear last night at the garden-wall: they came from such old, sorrowful, arid night-watchmen.
"For a father he cares not sufficiently for his children: human fathers do this better!"-
"He is too old! He now cares no more for his children,"- answered the other night-watchman.
"Has he then children? No one can prove it unless he himself prove it! I have long wished that he would for once prove it thoroughly."
"Prove? As if he had ever proved anything! Proving is difficult to him; he lays great stress on one's believing him."
"Ay! Ay! Belief saves him; belief in him. That is the way with old people! So it is with us also!"-
-Thus spoke to each other the two old night-watchmen and light-scarers, and tooted then sorrowfully on their horns: so did it happen last night at the garden-wall.
To me, however, did the heart writhe with laughter, and was like to break; it knew not where to go, and sunk into the midriff.
It will be my death yet- to choke with laughter when I see asses drunken, and hear night-watchmen thus doubt about God.
Has the time not long since passed for all such doubts? Who may nowadays awaken such old slumbering, light-shunning things!
With the old Deities has it long since come to an end:- and verily, a good joyful Deity-end had they!
They did not "twilight" themselves to death- that do people fabricate! On the contrary, they- laughed themselves to death once on a time!
That took place when the ungodliest utterance came from a God himself- the utterance: "There is but one God! you shall have no other gods before me!"-
-An old grim-beard of a God, a jealous one, forgot himself in such wise:-
And all the gods then laughed, and shook upon their thrones, and exclaimed: "Is it not just divinity that there are gods, but no God?"
He that has an ear let him hear.-
Thus talked Zarathustra in the city he loved, which is surnamed "The Pied Cow." For from here he had but two days to travel to reach once more his cave and his animals; his soul, however, rejoiced unceasingly on account of the nighness of his return home.

noob: flow bindings disc mount
Hi this is probably a really really dumb question, seeing I couldn't find anyone else asking this..
Anyways I'm mounting bindings for the first time everr. (just got me some flow fuse at's:yahoo:)
In terms of safety, or response or whatever; Is there a difference as to which way the disc is rotated, as well as if the screws are in the middle of the holes? :D
...and should i add teflon tape to all the screws?
23 Attachment(s)
The disks can be rotated any way you need to. The important thing is that you get your boots centered on the board.
I would mount using the 3rd photo. you can get slight movement tip-tail OR Right-Left.
The multiple threaded holes already allow for tip to tail. If you use the 3rd photo it gives you more options to center your boot.
check this vid: FLOW Snowboarding | Video
ah well, guess thats where you got the screenshots from. duh…
picture 1&2 allow you to fine-tune stance-width and/or setback more precisely
picture 3 allows you to fine-tune toe-to-heel position more precisely
the slots in the disk are off-center, so even with pictures 1&2, you can choose between more toe or more heel offset.
it will come down to your personal preference, and if your boots and bindings need toe/heel adjustment or not.
most important (for response and riding comfort), is that your boots are mounted centered on your board. This means that your toes and heel hang over the edge of your board about an equal amount.
Too much toe or heel overhang can result in you sliding out on the snow during a turn, or if you are unevenly positioned, the board can feel odd to respond.
the amount of mounting inserts in your board can make a difference to.
just play around with it and see what works best for your riding, and have fun with it.
teflon is not needed. the screws are stainless steel, and have blue Nylock on them to reduce loosening. Still always check all your hardware before you go riding to make sure it's all still tight!
Thanks dudes!
@solucien haha yeah indeed thats where the pics are from. Yeah as a total noob I just couldn't see the purpose of the multi positions. Makes total sense now thanks to your in depth explanations! so awesome, cheers dude!

If Kdenlive says you have MLT version 0.4.5, then it means that at some point you installed Kdenlive (and MLT) with the build wizard. You probably have MLT libraries from that older version somewhere.
First, you can try deleting the file $HOME/.kde/share/config/kdenliverc
If that does not solve your problem, try to delete the directory created by the Build Wizard ( usually: $HOME/kdenlivewizard )

ZX,It's actually TWENTY-FIVE to go, since I'm still holding you to your proclamation of 59 by the end of April '98. Or are you admitting defeat so soon?
Intel has long allowed all employees to buy stock at reduced prices every six months through their stock participation plan. The last period ended around 2/19. As others have noted, some employees sell their stock through an internal same-day-sale program and pay reduced commissions. Others (most?) hold on to the stock for investment and tax reasons. What's happened the past few days was probably not significantly driven by employee sales. INTC was priced too high given Intel's stated expectations for the quarter. That, plus the usual market volatility and investor emotion, are driving the price down.As an aside, those that state with apparent confidence that the price will soon be above 100 or below 70 are speculating, to say the least. Even assuming substantial inaccuracy in Intel's guidance there's no justification for valuations so wildly high or low.

You can have over 10,000 players. You can hear the players and the caller talk. You can change the sizes to fit a small screen
Release Notes: This release makes the numbers called so far look like balls (there are also new sounds). There are more reasons for players to leave the game and more unusual things for the caller to say. On an iPad, the warning about the screen being in landscape mode is only shown for a short time. There is another animation when a player has a "line", which moves parts of the game around. It is now less likely that the same two animations occur twice in a row. Some variables names which were partly shortened are now shortened as a whole. This release also fixes two bugs. One bug stopped the game.

Future releases (2.0 and above) will support a multi-node database concept with log file shipping for an automatic database application failover.
Release Notes: This release adds a patch in BTreeNode to avoid effects for Linux (using memmove instead of memcpy) and several patches to improve crash recovery.
Ctalk adds classes, methods, operator overloading, inheritance, and complex object expressions to otherwise standard C programs. Programs can use only a few Ctalk objects and methods in an otherwise standard C program, but the language can be used to write entire programs also. Ctalk works on most if not all of the systems that support GCC, the GNU C compiler. The package includes the language, class and run-time libraries, example programs, tutorial, and language reference.
Release Notes: This release contains minor changes to make the translation between Ctalk and C more consistent, adds checks for circular class searches as well as cases where the self keyword is used within a function, and contains several other minor bugfixes.

It features platform independence, multi project support, automatic detection of needed actions, automatic up-to-date detection, a flexible scheme handler mechanism, Maven repository support, Ant task integration, automatic cross-project resolving of dependencies, high speed, a simple "syntax" that requires almost no Scala knowledge, behind-the-sceens compilation of build script to bytecode for fast execution time, and built-in scheme handlers for HTTP and Maven.
Release Notes: This version fixes another potential class loading issue and offers speed improvements in the initialization phase.
BaseX is a light-weight, high-performance, and scalable XML database system and XPath/XQuery processor, including full support for the W3C Update and Full Text extensions. An interactive and user-friendly GUI frontend gives you great insight into large XML data instances. It is platform independent and works out of the box.
Release Notes: Large texts can be efficiently sorted in the GUI (Ctrl-U). Documents with namespaces are processed faster than before. New Database Module functions (alter, copy, create-backup, drop-backup, and restore). The Admin Module is extended. New evaluation options for xquery:eval (memory, timeout, and permissions). Always shows the full stack trace when debugging XQuery. Reduces waiting time if the password is wrong. An XQuery Easter egg.
