"Great hotel , clean and fresh. Breakfast is a bit of a bore like most hotels india. Location could be better if closer to Corbett gates. Game drive was scenic but the lack of animal sightings was disappointing. Overall a very comfortable and cosy resort with helpful staff."

I understand that this is a very broad question, but a short "it depends" kind of answer will not be accepted. Strategies are born to deal with broad issues.
What issues should an application designer take into consideration when devising the error and exception handling strategy?
How the strategy will differ depending on the software type (COTS, in-house business app, consultingware, game, hosted web app, embedded etc)? Is the software type important?
Ethical, political and legal issues?
Various perspectives on error handling (user, developer, business support, management).
Some ideas that I would have explored:
Various error reporting routes (i.e. UI, logging, automatic admin notification).
Defence in depth and robustness (failover contingency and fail-safe mechanisms, recovery against problems that are not yet known).
Treating users and customers fairly (i.e. minimising the impact on software users and other people serviced by software).
I'm looking for a similar list of ideas and concepts.
Please do use comments to point me out if I need to clarify the question further and thanks to everyone contributing!
Development Platform (Java, .NET, mobile) — will definitely have some affect on the resulting implementation detail of the strategy from a developer perspective but less so from users' point of view.
Fools day it is certainly not. Most legacy systems I was asked to work on did not have a clear error handling strategy.
Could this be made a community wiki? No. It seems as a good question and good questions are hard to come up with.
What do you mean by the strategy? A long term plan that gives direction, focus, brings consistency and coordination to error and exception handling. In case of a larger team working on software the strategy can be formilised and distributed in a written form.
It seems to be duplicate question (see Best practices for exception management in Java or C and Which and why do you prefer exceptions or return codes) These questions deal with a certain perspective on error handling (mostly developer), I'd like to learn more about other perspectives and how they contribute to the overall strategy.

How is microsporidiosis treated?
The treatment of microsporidiosis is generally achieved with medications and supportive care. Depending on the site of infection and the microsporidia species involved, different medications are utilized. The most commonly used medications for microsporidiosis include albendazole (Albenza) and fumagillin.
For patients with diarrhea and dehydration, intravenous fluid administration and electrolyte repletion may be necessary. Dietary and nutritional regimens may also assist with chronic diarrhea. Finally, improvement of immune system function with antiretroviral therapy in HIV-infected individuals may also lead to improvement of symptoms.
How is microsporidiosis prevented?
For patients with immune-system deficiency, frequent hand washing and limiting exposure to animals suspected of being infected with microsporidia is recommended.

Olympic-sized challenges: Parenting and competition meet at the 2014 Games
Besides that, the kids get the chance to travel. A lot.
"We will not be home until after the Olympics at the end of February," Pikus-Pace said. "We've been out since the first of October."
They've had plenty of time to master the art of flying and driving 10 hours at a time, of naps and diapering and squeezing in a moment to read a book.
"We roll with the punches," she said.
As for hotels, it's not a problem, she added, because "our home is anywhere we're all together."
Lovely support
While most of the parenting challenges come from the demands of travel and the pain of separation, some athletes also deal with the worries of those who love them most.
Wise said his wife was a bit worried about the safety of his sport, which requires him to do dangerous tricks in a halfpipe on skis. But he said her understanding of the sport and her faith in his abilities have eased some of those concerns.
"She's known me for a long time, and I've always been a skier," he said. "I'm not the kind of person who will change for what people want."
Freeskiers may look like they do crazy tricks on skis, but there is actually a slow, steady build-up to the toughest tricks with which these athletes compete.
For Pikus-Pace's family, the risk is not hypothetical. In a freak accident during the Olympic trials in 2005, a runaway bobsled smashed into her, shattering her leg and her Olympic dream. She took a year off and started a family, then came back to compete in the 2010 Vancouver Games, where she came in fourth. She retired that year. After she suffered a miscarriage, she revisited and reversed her decision to retire, returning to the sport in 2012. It was her husband's suggestion that she reconsider retirement.
The plan is not, however, to forever raise the children on the side of the runs where Mommy competes.
"We do not plan to do this far into the future. We are doing it now," she said. "Our plan is to raise a strong family."
Despite deep dedication to their respective sports, these athletes acknowledge family comes first.
Wise said having a family hasn't changed his professional goals at all, but it has redefined him.
"Really, for me, it's sort of taken the pressure off," he said. "I don't have to define myself by winning or losing. I'm a father and a husband first and foremost."
The knowledge that, win or lose, his family supports him brings him a lot of peace, he said.
"I think I've been more innovative since she was born than I did before. It's just another aspect of life. I'm not the kind of person to live in fear, to worry about crashing or falling. I try to control the things I can control, and I let God control the rest."
He's been "blessed and cursed" with a one-track mind, he added.
"My brain only has space for one thing at a time," Wise said. "When I'm in the pipe, I'm focused on laying down my best. When I'm being a dad and a husband, I'm equally devoted to that. ... I don't let things distract me easily."

How Willing Are You to Accept Sexual Requests from Slightly Unattractive to Exceptionally Attractive Imagined Requestors?

In their classic study of differences in mating strategies, Clark and Hatfield (1989, Journal of Psychology and Human Sexuality, 2, 39–54) found that men and women demonstrated a striking difference in interest in casual sex. The current study examined the role of an imagined requestor's physical attractiveness (slightly unattractive, moderately attractive, and exceptionally attractive) on men's and women's willingness to accept three different requests (go out, come to apartment, go to bed) as reflected in answers to a questionnaire. We tested two hypotheses with a sample of 427 men and 443 women from three countries. Hypothesis 1 states that men, relative to women, will demonstrate a greater willingness to accept the "come to apartment" and "go to bed" requests but not the "go out" request for all three levels of requestor attractiveness. This hypothesis reflects Clark and Hatfield's main findings. Hypothesis 2 states that the physical attractiveness of a potential partner will have a greater effect on women's than on men's willingness to accept all three requests, and particularly for the explicit request for casual sex. The results partially supported Hypothesis 1 and fully supported Hypothesis 2. The discussion highlights limitations of the current research and presents directions for future research.

AWS Recently recognized 15 winners for the 2016 AWS City on a Cloud Innovation Challenge. Learn more about the winners and their projects by clicking here!
Georgia Technology Authority
By 2011, the GTA started looking for an alternative to its existing content management system (CMS). At the time, the organization operated its own data center, using a server farm with about 47 servers to run the CMS. "We were managing two versions of an old, inflexible system," describes Nikhil Deshpande, director of GeorgiaGov Interactive at GTA. "It was quite a task to manage both versions of the CMS and handle the daily upkeep of upgrades and patches for the servers." When an attempt to upgrade the CMS failed, the GTA began looking for an alternative solution. "It was a two-pronged approach," says Deshpande. "We wanted to find a better web publishing platform because the existing one limited what we could do. At the same time, infrastructure was a big factor. We were paying a lot for servers, licensing, and maintenance, and needed to find a way to reduce those costs."
City of McKinney
The City of McKinney, Texas, about 15 miles north of Dallas and home to 155,000 people, was ranked the No. 1 Best Place to Live in 2014 by Money Magazine.

Welcome! My name is Michelle and I am a certified master coach, facilitator, writer and speaker.
In 1994 I left University to start my real education. I went on a journey to find enlightenment. I got sober then moved in with two yogis- much to the delight of my very Catholic parents. My best friend Mandy was ready to rescue me at a moment's notice from what she was sure was a cult. As it turned out I didn't need rescuing. Instead I was taught yoga, meditation, fasting, energy healing, how to eat a pure diet and commit to a spiritual path.
When I left the yogis, I continued to learn about healing, spirituality and personal development through hundreds of books (I am still reading at least six books at any one point in time), teachings, talks and seminars. I travelled across the world to the tablelands of Australia, ancient Celtic sites in Europe, native Indian territories in America, remote regions of South America and back home again to Singapore in search of wisdom and understanding. My training furthered with pioneers in the fields of oriental medicine, natural healing remedies, life coaching and psycho-spiritual counselling.
My work now is about sharing what I learnt and supporting you on your journey to find purpose, peace and your own answers about life. I truly believe that all the answers are within and available to you, waiting to be discovered in the quieter moments if only you can trust them. What may be getting in the way is self-doubt, limiting beliefs, the emotional pain from past experiences, lack of confidence or not feeling deserving.
You have an integral part to play in creating your life by the thoughts you think, the choices you make and the actions you take. Once you become conscious about your thoughts, intentional about your choices and mindful about your actions, you can change your future and affect the consciousness of the world you live in.
If you are interested in becoming intentional about your life's journey and looking for a co-creator in this process, it would be an honour to hear from you and walk beside you for a while.

I ordered this top online in yellow and really liked it however it is sooooo long the fit is kind of awkward. I am 5'3" and this is long enough to wear as a dress! I might actually just use it as a cover up for the beach, I think it would look nice over a swimsuit. I understand that for the taller girls out there this is a good thing, but if you are on the petite side keep this in mind.
Bought this for my daughter and she loves it! It fit her very nicely. The quality is good and seems to keep together well. Good shirt for a teen!
great fit

Saboteur (Commodore 16, Plus/4)

DescriptionSaboteur combines platform, beat 'em up and stealth elements, setting you as a lone samurai trying to infiltrate an enemy complex. You are capable of all manner of ninja-style moves including kicks and punches, as well as using weaponry. You must travel through an underground complex linked mainly by platforms and ladders, before triggering a bomb and escaping the complex. Your energy recharges if you stay still, so finding areas free of guards (kill these for money) and dogs (avoid them; killing them gains you nothing) is useful, especially as you only have one life. There's plenty of object manipulation involved, although only one item can ever be carried at a time.

Toronto Mayor Rob Ford Will Take Leave, Seek Help For Substance Abuse
Toronto Mayor Rob Ford, who has been dogged by controversy after he admitted to smoking crack, will take time off to seek help for substance abuse, The Associated Press and the Toronto Sun are reporting.
Ford told the Sun he was "ready to take a break" in order to "go get help." The paper adds:
"Mayor Ford told the Sun's Joe Warmington that he realizes 'it's time' and that he 'wants' to 'deal with his issues.' "
Along with the announcement, there are reports of new audio and video footage of the mayor. The Globe and Mail says a video allegedly shows Ford smoking crack cocaine; audio posted by the Sun is said to be of Ford acting out at a bar.
As we've reported:
— It was on November 5 that Ford admitted that he smoked crack during a "drunken stupor."
— Two days later, a video showed him "extremely inebriated" and threatening to kill someone.
— On Nov. 14, a day after he was asked to step aside by his council, Ford made comments that were too blue for most news organizations to repeat.
— On Nov. 18, the Toronto City Council stripped Ford of most of his power. Ford vowed to fight on.
— In January, he filed for re-election.
— And the last time we checked in back in March, he was at the center of another chaotic scene at City Hall.
Update at 11:05 p.m. ET. More Material?:
With news of Ford taking time off, there are reports of a new video and audio recording of the mayor.
The Globe and Mail said Wednesday two of its reporters saw a video clip that "shows Mr. Ford taking a drag from a long copper-coloured pipe, exhaling a cloud of smoke, his right arm convulsing."
A "self-professed drug dealer" tells The Globe and Mail that the clip is part of a three-video package that was taped surreptitiously. The paper says the announcement from Ford's lawyer came less than an hour after it requested comment from the mayor on the video.
Meanwhile, the Toronto Sun has published what it claims is an exclusive audio recording of Ford "ranting and swearing" at a bar.

Won't buy again, either!
Posted by Reviewer1468232 on Feb 24, 2014
Won't buy again, though I can say that is a bit better than the Lifting Nigh Crème one... maybe because of the lavender, it smells good and very soothing. Other than that?... Did not like it. Does not hold its moisture.
manufacturing date is in 2003
Posted by 4673163077895470371 on Mar 23, 2014
iherb staff claim first claimed that even the product was manufactured more than 10 years ago, it still could be used. After that, they claimed that there was no products in their warehouse were more than 4 years. They ignore me after the last email sent. This is lousy and ironic customer service. iherb is irresponsible. I will not buy from iherb again!

PHILADELPHIA (April 11, 2013)--A man was saved by his belt buckle when he was hit by a stray bullet during a shootout outside a Philadelphia grocery store, police said.
The shootout occurred at around 4 p.m. Wednesday in the city's Grays Ferry section.
Police say a man was shot in the stomach on the street and a bullet also hit an employee inside 8 Brother's Supermarket.
The employee, Bienvenido Reynoso, 38, said he was about to take a hand truck outside when shots started flying.
He hit ground and surveillance video shows a snack cake being shot off the shelf above his head.
He says he didn't realize he'd been hit until someone pointed out he had a hole in his shirt, which is when he found the bullet in his belt buckle.

Avery adds speed to the outside giving quarterback Alex Smith a viable deep threat.

You may recall his last-play, game-winning dash to beat the Lions in Detroit in December. Avery adds another playmaking presence to a Chiefs wide receiver corps led by Dwayne Bowe.

IF CHADWICK BOSEMAN ends up winning an award for his uncanny embodiment of James Brown in "Get on Up," he might take time to thank Mike Douglas.
As he researched Brown, Boseman found ample concert footage of the singer, but Boseman wanted to see his subject in a more casual setting - Brown being Brown. He found a treasure trove of material while viewing clips of "The Mike Douglas Show," taped in Philadelphia from 1965 until 1978, an era in which Brown was a frequent contributor.
"Douglas always had a different guest host, and you see James Brown on there all the time, and I learned a lot from watching him," Boseman said. "I think you could say [the Douglas show] was the equivalent in some ways of the Bill Maher show: You had all these interesting people sort of thrown together.

The defending champion was down in the fall, but it's not out yet.

Health care bill will be historicApril 21,2014Health care bill
will be historic
About Time Crunch (April 20): Who would have guessed when the Legislature asked consultant Thorpe for a Plan B that he would serve them something other than leftovers? Well, at least his ideas were better than the well-known Republican plan of, Dont get sick, but if you do, die fast.
As you said, it is an enormously complicated undertaking that requires careful planning and scrutiny by all, but the Legislature must keep in mind that universal health care for Vermont is not only an idea whose time has come, but it is also clearly affordable, as world economic data show:
If Vermont were its own country, it would rank 20th in per capita GDP (PCGDP) with $38,198 (2005). Adjusted for parity of purchasing power (which equalizes currencies worth), it puts Vermont right ahead of Belgium and 171 other countries;
Twenty-one of those countries have health care outcomes which, dollar for dollar, are superior to the U.S. (2013 PCGDP, $52,800, ranking 8th in 2013);
Of the 36 countries which have health outcomes superior to the U.S., only 15 have a higher PCGDP than Vermont. Vermonters per capita are richer than the citizens of France, Belgium, Denmark, the United Kingdom, Andorra, Japan, Finland, San Marino, Israel, Saudi Arabia, New Zealand, Spain, the United Arab Emirates, Oman, Italy, Cyprus, Greece, Portugal, Chile, Argentina and Colombia.
The Legislature ought to keep in mind what the prize is: A system of universal coverage will ensure that never again will Vermonters have to put off having an illness treated until it is too late. Never again will they lose their insurance because they lost their job due to being too sick to work. Never again will they go bankrupt due to costs of medical care. Never again will their doctors be told to deny them appropriate care. The Legislature that passes this bill will be the most famous in the history of the state.

Gucci Mane's release from prison was widely celebrated by rap fans the world over. The news of his release spread quick and true to form Gucci already released a new track 'First Day Out the Feds'. His career has not been without it's share of controversy but through it all he's been one of the most prolific and influential rap artists of our time. You'd be hard pressed to name a producer or artist he hasn't worked with at this point. A great primer on his life story is this FADER piece that was released last year.
As a fan of his music I am glad to see that he's getting so much love. This mix is a tribute to Guwop and features many of my favorite Guwop tracks to date. Listen to it on Soundcloud below or click through directly to it.
DWMS 8 – Dark0, Lotic , Bryell the Great, Copout
The last few DWMS events have cemented the series' place in New York underground nightlife. The eighth iteration returns to Palisades in Brooklyn featuring a formidable new lineup. Hailing from North West London Dark0 has a strong series of releases under his belt including the 2014's Fate EP and the new Solice EP on Rinse. Lotic (Tri Angle Records) was a force of nature when I saw him spin at the RBMA Tri Angle Records anniversary party and I can safely say a live set from him is not be missed. Fresh off the heels from his debut release the Bardo EP, Copout (Liminal sounds) brings an electric unforgiving style that's been proven throughout parties in New York. Rounding out the lineup is New York's Byrell the Great (Qween Beat) who brings the energy and intensity of Vogue and Ballroom culture.
As to be expected from a DWMS party, projected visuals by Note PTP and Jayne Lies add to what looks to be one of the parties of the summer. More info and tickets here.
If you are in New York and interested at all in underground club music you might be familiar with the series of parties under the DWMS moniker. The good squad at Purple Tape Pedigree (PTP) has been once again assembled an A team of selectors with a heavy emphasis on UK flavor this time around. The set list also includes Rushmore from Trax Couture and two heavy hitters (Fraxinus and Kid Antoine) from the Her Records squad doing a back to back set. Progressive grime sounds by Murlo (Mixpak) will make their mark on what should be a very epic night at Palisades. New York footwork representers Tripletrain will be on hand to ignite the proceedings in typical frenetic fashion.
Visuals by Note and Jayne Lies should provide a visible spectacle to the sound.
This all goes down this Saturday, May 23. Hit this link for all the event info you need.

Some of this artwork has been compiled and brought to a hong kong for an exhibition entitle TGRAPHICS. The exhibition features a mix of archival and rare graphics that span the brand's history. The range of graphics is certainly impressive and includes collaborative art from the likes of Kaws.
If you're in Hong Kong you still have a chance to see it in person until April 30th

With the constant flood of negative news in recent weeks, it's not difficult to imagine a dystopian chaotic near future. Brooklyn artist Lori Nix has been capturing miniature destruction through her dioramas which she photographs and exhibits around the world. These scenes of destruction include locales as mundane as the local chinese takeout spot to grand theaters and casino gambling floors. Lori cites 70's films and natural disasters she experienced as a child as inspirations for her body of work.
See more of her work after the jump and you can read an interview with Lori over at Dazed.
Dropping a second mix this week for your listening pleasure. Tony Conquerrah does an incredible raggae show each week on BBOX Radio so I'm honored that he was so down to contribute this mix to Third Looks. Over the years I've heard lots of raggae, dancehall and soca in Toronto as it was necessary for every DJ to have that in their crate due to the large Caribbean and West Indian population. There was definitely some nostalgic joints I heard in this mix, but even more exciting are the tracks I'm hearing for the first time in this hour long mix.
I asked Tony to intro the mix in his own words
"At the risk of sounding like a major nerd (which is what all DJ's are anyway, let's
face it), you can say that rap music has always been my first love.
But I came up in the 90's, during a time when dancehall was gun-butting its way into
the hip-hop party.
I mean its always been there, ever since Kool Herc did his own take on Jamaican
sound systems up in the Bronx. And groups like Boogie Down Productions or Poor
Righteous Teachers also wore the island influence like a Dapper Dan leather suit.
Yet it wasn't until the 90's that we saw the two cultures so nicely dovetailed
together. Super Cat's "Ghetto Red Hot" video was getting regular burn on Yo! MTV
Raps. Crossover tunes like "Romantic Call" or "Murder She Wrote" were staples on Hot
97, not just on Flex's show at night, but right out there in broad day. The
programming had a lot to do with the huge West Indian demographic here in the
tri-state area – but it was also becoming recognized on a nationwide scale – paving
the way for artists like Sean Paul or Shaggy in the latter part of the decade.
While a lot of tunes in this mix were never "hits" in the US (although tunes like
"Action" most definitely were), they are straight bashment tunes, reflecting the
energy of the era when dancehall, or digital, or ragga, whatever you choose to call
it, really came into its own and branched off from the straight-ahead reggae stylee.
And like any good 90's type of mix, I had to throw in some hip-hop blends for good
measure. "
You can find Tony Conquerrah on Soundcloud.
We got another mix for you this time by New York based Ibe Soliman. He's a DJ and producer who has worked with the likes of Faith Evans, Keyshia Cole, Rick Ross, and Kendrick Lamar. Heading into a Spring, check out this upbeat and fast moving mix that will get bodies moving at your next function.
"Slowly but surely Jersey Club has been creeping into my sets so I put together some songs I dig with some remixes i did, and some other spring time joints." – Ibe Soliman
You can follow him on soundcloud and twitter.
I hit up Zul from Singapore to select sounds for Third Looks Mix 002. Zul is not only a DJ; he runs a fantastic website that covers a range of electronic music called Subvert HQ (Facebook Page). I asked him to just give a quick brief about what listeners can expect from the hour long mix.
"I've been influenced by the deeper end of drum 'n' bass – the styles known as microfunk or Autonomic – for awhile now. This mix blends together some of the style's best tunes in recent years, I just hope people like the selection as much as I've I had fun putting it together."
Be sure to give the mix a shot, I found it a rewarding listen and a great audio soundtrack to the transitioning out of winter into spring. You can follow Zul on twitter and soundcloud.
Third Looks Mix 001 – 'Heartless' by Note (PTP)
I've been wanting to add an music component to Third Looks for some time now. I've been listening to more and more mixes through soundcloud through the last year and figured why not share sounds from some of my favorite DJs/producers with you directly. I really like the experience of putting on a well curated mix and just zoning out to it. I intend for this to become a regular feature on the site and I'd love to hear any feedback you may have on this initial offering.
First up in the series is a mix by Note of PTP (Purple Tape Pedigree). He may be a familiar face to some of you as he's been featured in a style profile here some time ago. When I first heard the mix, I wasn't familiar with most of the tracks or artists on here, but it was learning experience that was worth the investment. This is the sort of mix play practically anywhere, whether you're getting work done at the office or drinking with friends at the crib.
I asked Note to describe the mix in a sentence and this is what he submitted. But I suggest you just throw on a good pair of headphones or play this on a deserving system and hear it for yourself.

In linear or logistic regression if we find a hypothesis function which fits the training set perfectly then it should be a good thing because in that case we have used 100 % of the information given to predict new information.
While it is called to be overfitting and said to be bad thing.
By making the hypothesis function simpler we may be actually increasing the noise instead of decreasing it.
Why is it so?
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
In linear or logistic regression if we find a hypothesis function which fits the training set perfectly then it should be a good thing because in that case we have used 100 % of the information given to predict new information.
Overfitting occures when you try "too hard" to make the examples in the training set fit the classification rule.
It is considered bad thing for 2 reasons main reasons:
According to Occam's razor, you should tolerate the misclassified sample, and assume it is noise or insegnificant, and adopt the simple solution (green line) in this data set:
Because you actually didn't "learn" anything from your training set, you've just fitted to your data.
Imagine, you have a one-dimensional regression
The function, defined this way
will give you perfect fit, but it's actually useless.
Hope, this helped a bit:)
Assuming that your regression accounts for all source of deviation in your data, then you might argue that your regression perfectly fits the data. However, if you know all (and I mean all) of the influences in your system, then you probably don't need a regression. You likely have an analytic solution that perfectly predicts new information.
In actuality, the information you possess will fall short of this perfect level. Noise (measurement error, partial observability, etc) will cause deviation in your data. In response, a regression (or other fitting mechanism) should seek the general trend of the data while minimizing the influence of noise.
Actually, the statement is not quite correct as written. It is perfectly fine to match 100% of your data if your hypothesis function is linear. Every continuous nonlinear function may be approximated locally by a linear function which gives important information on it's local behavior.
It is also fine to match 100 points of data to a quadratic curve if that data matches 100%. You can have high confidence that you are not overfitting your data, since the data consistently shows quadratic behavior.
However, one can always get 100% fit by using a polynomial function of high enough degree. Even without the noise that others have pointed out, though, you shouldn't assume your data has some high degree polynomial behavior without having some kind of theoretical or experimental confirmation of that hypothesis. Two good indicators that polynomial behavior is indicated are:
Notice, though, that even though exponential and reciprocal relationships may have data that fits a polynomial of high enough degree, they don't tend to obey eith of the two conditions above.
The point is that your data fit needs to be useful to prediction. You always know that a linear fit will give information locally, but that information becomes more useful the more points are fit. Even if there are only two points and noise, a linear fit still gives the best theoretical look at the data collected so far, and establishes the first expectations of the data. Beyond that, though, using a quadratic fit for three points or a cubic fit for four is not validly giving more information, as it assumes both local and asymptotic behavior information with the addition of one point. You need justification for your hypothesis function. That justification can come from more points or from theory.
(A third reason that sometimes comes up is
This is typically used in understanding data to build theoretical models without having a good starting point for theory. You should still strive to use the smallest polynomial degree possible, and look to substitute out patterns in the coefficients with what they may indicate (reciprocal, exponential, gaussian, etc.) in infinite series.)
Try imagining it this way. You have a function from which you pick
But, since you want to build a robust model, you want to add a little noise to your training set, so you actually add a little noise when generating the data:
where by
And then you draw, let's say, 10 points to be your training set. If there was no noise, they would all be lying on a line
If you consider, by just using an estimation of the information from the training set, you would probably get a simpler function than the 10-th order polynomial function, and it would have been closer to the real function.
Consider further that your real function can have values outside the

Great shrimp dip! I liked the addition of the chopped eggs. I really thought this needed a little something, so I added some Old Bay seasoning..... that really did the trick! Others may like some hot sauce in this. Dill weed would be good, too. We enjoyed this with crackers and raw celery. Thanx!

I'm testing W3TC and am confused by the wording here. Wouldn't it be better to just have "[x] enable all caching functionality" - and uncheck it to disable the cache ? Seems a more standard way of doing things. i.e checked = enabled.
One other problem being that in my setup the checkbox is unchecked but pages are still being cached in memcache ?
Thanks for any help.

Beer on the Bay returns for sixth time
Sun-shimmering water. Stately sailboats. Rolling, grassy hills. Blue skies (we hope). Food tastings. Tasty local music. Spectacular people watching, from cyclists in ties to city councilmen with tattoos.
And, oh, did I say there was beer?
The sixth annual Beer on the Bay will be held Saturday at the Burger King Amphitheater at Liberty Park, adjacent to Jr.'s on the Bay, 726 W. Bayfront Parkway.
Two tasting sessions are scheduled, and available for the tasting will be beers from 31 craft brewers and four home-brewing organizations as well as ciders from three cider makers.
The first session -- from noon to 3 p.m. -- will feature music by Salmon Frank Band. The finale -- from 4 to 7 p.m. -- will feature sounds from Small Town Rollers.
Advance tickets are $30, $45 for access to a VIP area that will include rare beers, hookah bar and food tastings from several local restaurants. Tickets purchased at the door will be $35 and $50, respectively.
Designated driver tickets are also available for non-imbibers; they'll be $20 in advance and at the door, and will include access to the VIP area. Erie Transportation Services' Care Cab will also be available.
For tickets, visit www.eriepa.com/beer-on-the-bay or call 454-7191, Ext. 123. Tickets are also available at Erie Brewing Co., 1213 Veshecco Dr.
Beer on the Bay is presented by the Erie Regional Chamber and Growth Partnership and Erie Brewing. Gates open on Saturday at 11:45 a.m.; no one under 21 will be admitted.
How best to enjoy the fest
You know how nothing tastes better than a cold one after a long, hard, mostly losing battle with the lawn?
And then nothing tastes better than that than another cold one?
Well, Beer on the Bay -- a long, lazy, session drinker's paradise -- is just like that, with one notable exception -- no lawn mowing!
Sounds good, right? Sounds like all you need to do is call the phone number or visit the website listed above, right? And then you can just jettison this whole section to the recycle bin?
Wrong-o, Dogfish Head breath!
No, what you still need are a few brief tips to help you wring every bit of fun out of B on the B. So here we go. ...
Who's coming to the beer fest?
Here's the list so far:
Arcadia Ales from Battlecreek, Mich.; Bells Brewery from Galesburg, Mich.; Blue Moon Brewing Co. from Golden, Colo.; Boston Beer Co.; Brewerie of Union Station from Erie; California Cider Co. from Sebastopol, Calif.; Duquesne Beer from Pittsburgh; Ellicottville Brewing Co. from Ellicottville, N.Y.; Erie Brewing Co.; Flying Dog Brewing from Frederick, Md.; Founders Brewing Co. from Grand Rapids, Mich.; Full Pint Brewing Co. from Pittsburgh.
Also, Goose Island Brewing Co. from Chicago; Great Lakes Brewing Co. from Cleveland; Hop Yard Brewing Co. from Pittsburgh; Jack's Hard Cider from Biglerville; Kinzua Dam Beer Co. from Warren, Pa.; Lavery Brewing Co. from Erie; Lancaster Brewing Co.; Little Mountain Brewing Co. from Kirtland, Ohio; Magic Hat Brewing Co. from South Burlington, Vt.; Marzoni's Brewing Co. from Duncansville; North Country Brewing Co. from Slippery Rock.
Also, Penn Brewery from Pittsburgh; Samuel Smith Brewery from North Yorkshire, United Kingdom; Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. from Chico, Calif.; Southern Tier Brewing Co. from Lakewood, N.Y.; Sprague Farm and Brew Works from Venango; Straub Brewery from St. Marys; Timber Creek Tap and Table from Meadville; Troegs Brewing Co. from Hershey; D.G. Yuengling and Son from Pottsville; Vermont Hard Cider Co. from Middlebury, Vt.; and Victory Brewing Co. from Downington.
Four home-brew organizations will also be in attendance: Harborcreek Brew Club, H.A.Z.A.R.D. (Homebrewers And Zymurgists Alcohol Research Division) Homebrewers from Erie, Meadville Brewing Society and Pittsburgh's Three Rivers Underground Brewers.
Visit all of them if you like, but not all brewers are created equal. Here are my favorites among the commercial brewers: Bells, Founders, Great Lakes, Lavery, North Country, Sierra Nevada, Southern Tier, Sprague and Troegs.
Which beers should you try?
Short of visiting every tent, your best approach is to use the booklet handed out at the door that lists all of the beers and all of the brewers.
Next, divide the beers into styles, particularly your style. If you like Belgians, there's no reason to dally with too many IPAs. Similarly, if you crave stouts, what are you doing with that light, frivolous wheat beer?
That's not to say that experimenting with different styles or trying a new beer is a bad idea. Trying a new beer is always a good idea. It's just that, as the hour passes 2 p.m. for the first session and 6 p.m. for the second, you might just want to start playing favorites.
Is it worth the extra $15 for the VIP area?
This sounded like a good idea when it was introduced two years ago, and my friends and I tried it. It's not that the VIP area was bad then; it just wasn't great. And, besides, beer drinking is among the most egalitarian of shared experiences. Not only does it help to break the ice, but as one of my theories holds, without beer men wouldn't speak a word to each other.
So it just doesn't seem right that, while some of us are casting mindlessly about in Tent City, others are feasting on rare beers and hookah pipes in Elysium.
Which tasting session should I attend?
Why quibble? Attend both!
Kidding, kidding.
My colleagues and I go to the afternoon session. It's a little more laid back than the night session and usually not as crowded. A drawback, of course, is that the day session can be hot and sunny, whereas the night segment is comfortably within Erie's cool-down zone.
As our own cool-down zone following Beer on the Bay, my friends and I make early dinner reservations at one of our favorite restaurants around 4:30 or 5 p.m. The beauty is that it's early enough and unchic enough to get us into even the most popular places.
What happens if it rains?
Beer on the Bay goes on rain or shine -- and often it does both within minutes of each other, the rain turning off and on like a spigot.
But here's the great thing about beer -- it makes you impervious to rain.
Who has the coolest-named beers?
You don't have to try hard to come up with fun beer names -- Flying Dog's Raging Bitch and Doggie Style Pale Ale and Ellicottville's Pantius Droppus are just three of many uniquely named beers. Imagine the thrill of asking a lovely bartender for a Raging Bitch and for once not getting slapped!
Thankfully, when the craft-brewing phenomenon hit America, not only did these brewers bring more taste and variety to their beers, they also brought back the pure exhilaration of the whole experience. Hence, the Road Runner-inspired Pantius Droppus.
Now there's a new trend. Some of the most evocatively named beers have issued from Jason Lavery's Lavery Brewing Co. -- La Bealtaine White Fire Wheat Ale, Dulachan India Pale Ale and Liopard Oir Farmhouse Ale.
And if you don't think Liopard Oir is quite exotic enough, know that one of the beer's ingredients is a wild yeast named Brettanomyces Clausenil.
And here I thought Clausenil was one of the German generals who tried to blow up Hitler.
In any event, Lavery's beers are pretty darn good. Dulachan is my current IPA fave. Look for it in its distinctive green cans.
What's the latest at Erie Brewing?
Erie Brewing's Railbender remains a good beer, but the company, which had a change of ownership and financial restructuring in 2012, has produced few new beers lately.
The good news is that the company, co-host of Beer on the Bay, is currently bottling its new Johnny Rails Pumpkin Ale. The beer was introduced in 2012 on a limited basis and only in kegs, but it will soon enjoy a full release in both cases and kegs.
If you want to taste test first, Erie Brewing will soon have Johnny Rails available at its tasting room, on its tours (Wednesday through Friday from noon to 5 p.m., Saturday from 1 to 4 p.m.)., and at Beer on the Bay.

A general method is proposed to describe multivariate data sets using discriminant analysis and principal-component analysis. First, the problem of finding K discriminant vectors in an L-class data set is solved and compared to the solution proposed in the literature for two-class problems and the classical solution for L-class data sets. It is shown that the method proposed is better than the classical method for L classes and is a generalization of the optimal set of discriminant vectors proposed for two-class problems. Then the method is combined with a generalized principal-component analysis to permit the user to define the properties of each successive computed vector. All the methods were tested using measurements made on various kinds of flowers (IRIS data)
