Steve Roach — Etheric Imprints
(Projekt 319, 2015, CD)
by Peter Thelen, Published 2015-08-29
The floating ghostly smoke image that adorns the cover fits the music perfectly, drifting freely in space, never tethered to any notion of rhythm or structure, yet moving and melodic. Here soundworld creator Roach is back in his best known element, a reflective and introspective form that moves intimately with the spirit and subconscious through an ever-floating pathway of mysterious emotion and perception. On the opening title cut, which clocks in at nearly 30 minutes, one can hear that the drifting ambient melodics are built from the basic sounds of a piano, heavily processed and stretched into space, warped and bent into sheets of shifting currents, gently morphing into peaks of subtle chaos and deep spaces of stillness, rising and falling like the solar winds. Three more side-long cuts seem to be more dense, vast and synth based, but follow a similar emotional thread, evoking a shimmering world of spatial consciousness with multi-layered cosmic waves drifting outward and inward in all directions. Throughout these four pieces, the sound cuts through the surface of the listeners awareness and heads straight for the subconscious, offering illumination and shading as it goes, transforming the core perceptual experience and altering mood. Perhaps after a thousand plays I will begin to know this music as music, rather than as an experiential journey, if I ever get there, but for now every new spin is a magical web of surprises at every turn, filled with things I had never noticed before.

Tomasz Stańko RIP – Tomasz Stańko, one of the greats of Eastern European jazz, has died at the age of 76. Stańko's career started in Krzysztof Komeda's quintet, where he contributed trumpet from 1963-1967, when he formed his own group. He worked extensively with Edward Vesala, Don Cherry, Zbigniew Seifert, Chico Freeman, Howard Johnson, Cecil Taylor, and many others. Many of his recordings have been released by ECM, an association that began in the mid-70s. » Read more
Soft Machine Set to Release New Music – It's been 50 years since The Soft Machine changed the face of music with their first album. Their blend of psychedelic rock and jazz was unique, and while the band went through many changes before disbanding in 1981 — by which time there were no original members remaining — they remained an innovative force with a style all their own. » Read more

Testing is a useful and valid tool to obtain important information about the fitness status of an athlete. Such information provides the basis of carrying out a proper planning of training.
The Yo-Yo Tests are optimal because they are simple, valid and a high number of people can be tested in a short time without requiring anything other than a CD-player and a tape measure. The tests are used in many sports and by a high number of top clubs and National teams in soccer.
The Yo-Yo Tests provide an important tool in determining an individual's fitness level. The physical capacity is evaluated in a fast and simple manner. Two markers are positioned at a distance of 20 meters. The enclosed CD-rom is placed in a CD-player and the test can be performed. The participant runs like a Yo-Yo back and forth between the markers at a given speeds that are controlled by the CD-rom. The speed is regularly increased, and when the individual can no longer maintain the required speed, the test is ended and the result determined from the distance covered during the test.
Since each of the three tests has two levels they can be used by anyone, irrespective of training status. Level 1 should be for untrained and less trained individuals, and level 2 for well-trained athletes, There are three Yo-Yo Tests, each of which focuses on different aspects of physical performance.

"Please," he whimpered, eyes cast up from the polished linoleum as if in prayer, a single rivulet of blood trickling from a nostril. "I I have a family."
"A family?" Charlie glanced from one crumpled heap of flesh and gristle to another, a distinct disinterest building behind insect black eyes. "How many kids?"
"Boy or girl?"
"Both boys."
He squatted next to the man, spinning the massive .357 on his finger like the protagonist of some spaghetti western. The barrel whirled around the blur of his hand like Death's private helicopter, gaining and losing momentum in an evident but indecipherable rhythm. He blew a breath out his nose, tightening on the smooth wooden handgrip.
"Shame," he said, shifting his gaze to the man's eyes. He donned an expression of false concern, snatching the tail of the man's hot pink striped power-tie and roughly wiping away the bloody nose. "There we go. Shame. What're their names?"
"Both of them? Not terribly origina

Old Ski Run Trail is a 3.7 mile lightly trafficked loop trail located near Conifer, Colorado that features a river and is good for all skill levels. The trail is primarily used for hiking, walking, nature trips, and birding and is accessible year-round. Dogs are also able to use this trail but must be kept on leash.

Ditto to Amber's post below. Exceeded my expectations. Something for all abilities.
Fast quick and close to the city. Also, can hear cars most of the way but fades the farther you get. Still beautiful one of the hikes that got me addicted to hiking, so it means something to me.
Started the hike early, and it was great! Few people first thing in the am but traffic picked up as we headed out around 10:30. Had a few good views and the pups enjoyed it. Not sure where the river was though.
This area is highly trafficked and if you are looking to get away from the city avoid the trail and head deeper into the mountains where the tourist are not.
I wish I could tag to see "tourists" it's a beautiful trail but maybe too close to Denver. I went on a Sat afternoon in the fall so maybe it was just folks looking to see the leaves change but it was filthy with people. It was a lot more like standing in a fast moving line at a movie theater than a hike. I couldn't sneeze without another hiker saying bless you.
Love this trail. Quiet. Close. Beautiful.
Easy hike. Good for kids.
Good hike. Not much of a view at the top but still pretty! My mother was able to do it with me without any struggle

Of Muck and Morons
Please send your questions for publication to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Dear Prudence,
I need to ask you a question about my sister. I don't want to unload on her if her behavior is normal, but I have my doubts. Whenever we're in a public restroom, she will wash her hands (afterward) and then take a paper towel or toilet paper to turn off the faucets, then use it to open the door to leave. She does this so she doesn't have to touch anything with her bare hands. How crazy is that?
Dear Sal,
You have perhaps come to the wrong person. It has occurred to Prudie that maybe she's the secret love child of Howard Hughes because of her own slight phobia about germs. Actually, your sister's routine with the paper towels is merely one of taking precautions. What is the point, after all, of washing your hands only to then touch a surface that a non-hand-washer has touched? Prudie is so concerned for health, in fact, that she travels with a physician.
--Prudie, antiseptically
I am the mother of two beautiful children (4 and 6) who were both adopted from Russia. Both were amputees and therefore wear artificial limbs. I can't count the number of times people have rushed up to me and said, "Poor children, what happened?" Or worse, "What kind of drugs did you take when you were pregnant?" (This, of course, is always in front of the kids.) My standard response is to stare calmly and ask, "Why do you need to know?" I am writing for two reasons: The first is to remind people that this is not a Jerry Springer society, and everyone does not have the right to ask about a stranger's disability. The second is to ask if you have any great retorts for these morons?
Dear J.,
Prudie thinks you're handling things perfectly. If you want to enlarge your repertoire, however, you might try saying, "I don't believe I know you," and continue on. They will get the underlying implicit message. The important thing for you to know is that these foolish people who think everything is their business have their own congenital defect: no brains.
--Prudie, righteously
"In Trouble or Not" wrote asking about his abnormal fixation on sex. Had he written you about an abnormal drinking habit, you might have sent him to Alcoholics Anonymous. Do you not know that there is Sexaholics Anonymous, which is a well-respected organization dealing with fixations on sex? Send him to www.sa.org.
Dear NO,
Prudie knew of this organization, but it didn't come to mind; perhaps an indicator that sex addiction is less established in our society than alcoholism. Thank you for being a Prudie.
--Prudie, appreciatively
I am having what you'd call a philosophical argument with a friend. My position is that without rules and civilized, ordered behavior, life would be nasty, brutish, and short (to borrow from Hobbes). My friend believes that anarchy might be preferable and more "honest," with no imposed ordinances. His point is that if rules are dictated rather than instinctive, they are false--therefore not genuine and not worth having. What do you think about this? Maybe a word from you could settle the matter.
--Philosophically Interested
Dear Phil,
Prudie votes with you ... and she's relieved, by the way, that yours was a philosophical question, because upon reading the words "nasty, brutish, and short," she thought your letter was about her starter husband. In any case, offer your friend a very ordinary, everyday example: Imagine the flow of traffic without lights and signs. Of course Prudie does not think traffic lights are what Hobbes had in mind (since they didn't exist then), but she has a hunch he would have appreciated their contribution to civilization. If you need more ammunition, just point out what happened to Czolgosv, the chap who assassinated McKinley. In addition to having a name like that, he was electrocuted.
--Prudie, procedurally

I've been playing the tutorial scenario in the new wargame from Panther Games, Command Ops: Battles from the Bulge. I've played it through about 4 times now, and as I'm learning the mechanics of the game, I'm also becoming familiar with the terrain and that helps immensely when trying to counter the plans of the rather splendidly cunning AI.
From the starting position, I attempted to overrun the forces at Steinbruck, securing the bridge crossing there (as is explained in great detail in the accompanying video tutorials for the game). I pounded the area with arty for a while before sweeping my infantry in to the right, using the treeline there for cover. Simultaneously, I rolled my mechanised troops in support, and finally followed that up with a road-based "punch through" with my tanks.
I was able to take Steinebruck relatively easily, but you can see the additional forces assembling all along the footprint of Lommersweiler to the Northwest. I decided to use the momentum I'd built up to push heavily through Lommersweiler and swing North to follow the road and the tree line. Leaving some troops at the objective villagers to dig in and hold the areas for the accumulated victory points.
With my main force rolling up the main road, I was worried I'd stacked all my eggs in one basket and heading Northwards towards the Breitfield Crossroads would get mauled in the kill zone there.
So I decided to redirect an armoured group up through Neidengen and across the crossing there, and squeeze them through the forested gap. If nothing else it would mean I'd have some flanking support against the gathering enemy on the main road. They seemed to be forming up to shield the direct route into St. Vith. If you notice, I'd slipped an Anti-tank unit into the western edge of the forest facing the Breitfield Crossroads. I figured they would have cover, but might be able to provide fire up the road north, or across and along the eastern road running through Breitfield.
The enemy also started to channel Tiger tanks through the eastern forest to harass my main force, so I met them at the neck of the gap, in a vain attempt to pour as much firepower as I could upon these metal beasts rolling in.
Instead of pushing my flankers northwards, I slipped them into another forested region westwards. There's another road (red line top left of image) into St. Vith that this forest surrounds and I thought I could use it as a way to bypass the defenders. The AI seemed to organise a pincer attack on my forces trying desperately to hold onto the Breitfield Crossroads objective, eventually after much punishment and pounding from enemy Arty they had to attempt a withdrawal back to Neidengen. My "Tiger Hunters" and a combo of lots of Arty eventually chased the metal hulks northwards from the forest gap. They were a solid wall of defense just below the Crossroads, and I planned to push them forward to retake objective after they had rested.
My gamble on the red road had paid off, whilst the enemy were dealing with my main force centrally, I managed to steam my flankers up into St. Vith itself. In a panic when they got there I quickly threw them into a defend action and then crossed my fingers tightly. I began sweeping more troops along the track the flankers had taken mainly to use them as gears of war to throw into the mix and snag up the AI's sweeping defenders. I think once the flankers had made the run, the defenders began to mobilise to prevent any more troops getting through. Luckily I think they'd overcommitted their forces to holding up the main road, and there was very little resistance coming in to St. Vith itself. At the same time, I began the push my central force forward to secure the Crossroads. A satisfying array of enemy crosses litter the surrounding forest and Breitfield itself.
The AI tried hard to prevent any more troops making it through, diverting most of its troops to the red road push. It started to bring more troops in from Northeast, and was mounting an attack on the Crossroads, as I dug in with the flankers at St. Vith, and shelled whatever I could coming in from the North of St. Vith itself. Hold out. Hold out. Literally watching the time tick by and willing the flankers to hold out just long enough.
They did it!
I was so proud of them.
For all the might and muscle of my main force, and their ability to shake down Tiger tanks, my small flanking force managed to stealth run their way into St. Vith and hunker down long enough to get some valuable and much needed Victory Points.
It was a Marginal Victory. The best I've managed yet!
Heres the AAR breakdown.
There were times when I thought it was all over. I seemed to be bashing my head against a wall of enemy tanks and a cauldron of Arty fire in the basin just below the Crossroads. The desperate attempt to follow an alternate route with the smallest of forces, probably swung the outcome for me. It might not be the most historical or likely outcome, but by George, I was very pleased with a Marginal Victory, so much so I had to post this up.
I'm pulling the Churchill 'V' for Victory sign as I write this.

Study identifies three key times around childbirth when women disclose their HIV statusDecember 2nd, 2007 - 2:52 pm ICT by admin
Washington, Dec 2 (ANI): A new study on African women, who had an HIV test during pregnancy, has identified three key times when they are likely to disclose their HIV status to their male partner.
The study, conducted by Annabel Desgrees-du-Lou and colleagues within a program for prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV in Abidjan, Cote d'Ivoire, points out that targeting counselling to these key moments could help decrease the sexual transmission of HIV within stable relationships in sub-Saharan Africa.
The authors suggest that the end of pregnancy, the early stage of weaning and the resumption of a womans sexual activity with her partner are the moments at which specific counselling should be targeted to support women to reveal their status and to persuade their partner to take an HIV test.
The program provided support and testing to more than 900 women, both HIV infected and uninfected, during and following pregnancy. Fewer than half of the women infected with HIV told their partners about their status two years after childbirth.
Of those did tell their partners, two-thirds did so before delivery, and many others disclosed at the time of early weaning at 4 months. These times were related to the mothers decision on how to feed the child: HIV can be transmitted by breast feeding, and the women needed considerable support from their partners in order to formula feed from birth or to wean early.
The third peak time for disclosure, around the resumption of sexual relations, may reflect the womens desire to protect their partners through the use of condoms.
The study also found that the partners of the HIV-positive women who had disclosed their status were about three times more likely to take an HIV test that those who had not been told.
Although the women in the program are encouraged to communicate their status to their partner, the fear of rejection (which could lead to accusations of infidelity and loss of housing or food and) can make this disclosure difficult.
The study is published in journal PLoS Medicine. (ANI)

|Sesat > Docs + Support > Moving from FAST to Solr review
This is an article about moving two big complex collections of search documents from FAST to Solr, the problems encountered during the move, and how they were tackled.
These FAST FDS 4.1 collections where the company (yellow) and person (white) catalogues for Sesam.no from Norway.
We where going to move from one hosting provider to another. Moving the old FAST 4 installation over was not an option. Upgrading to FAST ESP5 was an option, but it was also a good time to experiment with Solr. While FAST was really good for real-time search (eg news search with clustering) for big static collections like our yellow and white indexes Solr looked like an ideal candidate.
1. Document Processing
The new Sesat document processing framework written, now released under the LGPLv3 license, is compatible with the FAST document processing framework. Porting FAST's document processor is easily done by, copying each file, and runing a script to fix minor things like imports and some special fetching of config files. The pipeline configuration file (pipeline-config.xml) from the FAST installation can also be largely reused. It is not wholly supported in the new document processing framework where functionality can be taken out of the pipeline process and provided by Solr itself.
The most prominent examples to this being:
2. Data-import disadvantages
Solved with the Sesat document processing framework.
Not being able to use the data-import handler for various reasons, and not wanting to find out how to use it with the homegrown document processing, we made a simple django import handler. That took about 3-4 hours to complete. Copying the data-import handler functionality was relatively easy and cronjobs were used to schedule the imports.
Replicating FAST's index profile was largely about rewriting it into Solr's schema.xml and solrconfig.xml
The schema.xml does a large amount of what the index-profile does. Field specification is done there, but also the filter and tokenization parts of the pipeline from FAST.
Most fields where easy to convert, here is a general mapping:
|FAST field type
|Solr field type
|list with separator
|field is multiValued
|need to make a list in the pipeline before adding to Solr
|sortable integer fields
|no mapping
|havent implemented geo in Solr
|composit fields
|not needed
|uses dismaxHandler to mirror this functionality
|composit fields
|use multiValued fields
| use a AttributeCopy pipeline step to fill a multiValue
does not support ranking differently on the different matches inside the composit field
|rank profile
|not needed
|uses dismaxHandler to mirror this functionality
|return specification
|not needed
|uses dismaxHandler to mirror this functionality with the returnfield for a qt
|done in schema.xml
|set the schema.xml field to a type that is tokenized the way you want
|snowball for the field type
| did not end up using this because the lemmatizer wasn't good enough for norwegian
can be fixed with making a list lookup lemmatizer for the pipeline
or configuring / coding in snowball
To copy the FAST search functionality the recall needs to be copied. In our FAST installation we had heavy use of composite field searches where a lot of the sub-fields in the composite fields where not referenced in the rank-profile.
To solve this, you need control over all the normal fields in the composite fields that are used in a search. These needs to be added to the DismaxHandler as zero ranked (so not to give any rank) fields. For example for a field "mysubfield" add:
to the qf field in the DismaxHandler.
The FAST FDS 4.1 installation used a soundex matcher, configured for norwegian phonetic matching. The functionality is not mirrored with Solr's phonetic matching. A satisfactory replacement was the RefinedSoundex with a special set of fields used just for the phonetic matching.
<filter class="solr.PhoneticFilterFactory" encoder="RefinedSoundex" inject="false"/>
The FAST phonetic matcher has a lot more configuration options. But I guess that this configuration can be mirrored by extending the Soundex Filter type.
Geographical filtering in Solr is pretty easy. In FAST one could use a composite field with all the geographical location information as an AND cause to the search. In Solr just add a Multivalued field and add the location information to it:
# in the fields definition add: <field name="iypcfgeo" type="text" indexed="true" stored="true" multiValued="true" /> ... <copyField source="iypstedsnavn" dest="iypcfgeo" /> <copyField source="iyplandsdel" dest="iypcfgeo" /> <copyField source="iypby" dest="iypcfgeo" /> <copyField source="iypbydel" dest="iypcfgeo" /> <copyField source="iypkommune" dest="iypcfgeo" />
This makes it possible to use the filter in the query. "fq=iypcfgeo:Oslo" will return only hits in Oslo
In the FAST installation we had composite fields we search by issuing ^querystring$ searches. It was difficult to find any way to do multiple field search combined with the dismax. Dismax just lists fields to be searched, and the type of the field defines how that field is searched.
By making the fields that need ^querystring$ type queries into String multiValued this functionality is matched. Since that field is not tokenized since strings does not have field transformations.
<field name="iypbransje" type="string" indexed="true" store="true" multiValued="true"/>
Might be possible to solve this with nested queries that was added to Solr 1.4 that also works for the dismax.
Navigators in Solr are called facets. They need be of type string in schema.xml and they're defined in dismax or the query.
When I started out to move the FAST navigators to Solr I looked in our index-profile. For each navigator, add a field in schema.xml like this:
<!-- navigator / facet fields --> <field name="ywpoststednavigator" type="string" index="true" /> <field name="ywbydelnavigator" type="string" index="true" />
Normally the facet field is a normal string and can be added in the copyField section of schema.xml like this:
<!-- navigator / facet copying --> <copyField source="ywpoststed" dest="ywpoststednavigator" /> <copyField source="ywbydel" dest="ywbydelnavigator" />
For a list field (separator field in FAST) add an AttributeCopy step in the pipeline to do the copy, because I manually split all multiValue fields in the pipeline other then those populated by the copyField in schema.xml. And fed them to a navigator field with type="string" index="true" multiValued="true"
In Solr it is possible to add facets to the dismax (since they are normally connected to the dismax anyway. Searching for whitepages should give a set of facets back). Some configuration can be added to the dismax to make that happen. On the bottom of the DismaxHandler add something like this:
... <int name="facet.mincount">1</int> </lst> <lst name="invariants"> <str name="facet.field">ywpoststednavigator </str> <str name="facet.field">ywbydelnavigator</str> </lst> ...
This approach makes it possible to ask Solr to return the default facets for the Dismax by adding &facet=true too the query url. You can still define your own facets at querytime.
Searching for coordinates to map coordinates to hits in that area.
This can be solved with mimicking the geographical coordinate search with boxing ANDs.
In FAST we had searches for ^term$ syntax in the searches. This is not possible in the same way in Solr, but by making a copy of the field as a
list of string??
<field name="somefield" type="string" index="true" store="true" />
Strings in that array will only match if the whole string matches (no processing done on string fields).
It's important to make all values in the list lower case and only send in lower case searches to make it hit right.
Name searching is a bit hard, the solution made for our Solr index uses a dismax requestHandler that combines search across phonetic, string, and a customized text_name type, fields. And ranking these with string match first, text_name second, and phonetic a lot lower. The text_name uses that LetterTokenizer
<!-- test of name search fields to do real tokenization and work delimit --> <fieldtype name="text_name" class="solr.TextField" positionIncrementGap="100"> <analyzer type="index"> <tokenizer class="solr.LetterTokenizerFactory"/> <filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/> <filter class="solr.WordDelimiterFilterFactory" generateWordParts="1" generateNumberParts="1" catenateWords="0" catenateNumbers="0" caten ateAll="0"/> <filter class="solr.RemoveDuplicatesTokenFilterFactory"/> </analyzer> <analyzer type="query"> <tokenizer class="solr.LetterTokenizerFactory"/> <filter class="solr.WordDelimiterFilterFactory" generateWordParts="1" generateNumberParts="1" catenateWords="0" catenateNumbers="0" caten ateAll="0"/> <filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/> <filter class="solr.RemoveDuplicatesTokenFilterFactory"/> </analyzer> </fieldtype>
After, implementing the solrconfig.xml and dismaxes for all the types of searches we needed to do, a problem popped up. The dismax in question had a number of phonetic matching fields and every time a number was searched (with or without other alpha nummeric query content) a disproportionate number of results was returned.
After debugging using the debugQuery=on option, I saw that the numbers was searches against the phonetic fields as an empty string.
Anyway, doing LetterTokenization for the phonetic field removes all the numbers on the way in and solved the problem
<fieldtype name="text_phon" class="solr.TextField" positionIncrementGap="100"> <analyzer type="index"> <tokenizer class="solr.LetterTokenizerFactory"/> <!-- tokenizer class="solr.WhitespaceTokenizerFactory"/--> <filter class="solr.WordDelimiterFilterFactory" generateWordParts="1" generateNumberParts="1" catenateWords="1" catenateNumbers="1" catenateAll="0"/> <filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/> <filter class="solr.PhoneticFilterFactory" inject="false" encoder="RefinedSoundex" /> <filter class="solr.RemoveDuplicatesTokenFilterFactory"/> </analyzer> <analyzer type="query"> <tokenizer class="solr.LetterTokenizerFactory"/> <!--tokenizer class="solr.WhitespaceTokenizerFactory"/--> <filter class="solr.WordDelimiterFilterFactory" generateWordParts="1" generateNumberParts="1" catenateWords="1" catenateNumbers="1" catenateAll="0"/> <filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/> <filter class="solr.PhoneticFilterFactory" encoder="RefinedSoundex" inject="false"/> <filter class="solr.RemoveDuplicatesTokenFilterFactory"/> </analyzer> </fieldtype>
As commented out the whitespacetokenizer was used before and resulted in 30,000 results where there would otherwise be only 3.
Replication was needed to make the index fault tolerant over a number of servers in different locations. The replication scheme in Solr is very straight forward. The server has a master configuration part in solrconfig.xml that describes actions related to replication. The slaves then have their configuration parts in solrconfig.xml which describe how they should poll the master requesting replication.
Replication is described in detail here: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/CollectionDistribution
A sample master configuration in solrconfig.xml
<requestHandler name="/replication" class="solr.ReplicationHandler" > <lst name="master"> <str name="replicateAfter">optimize</str> <str name="replicateAfter">commit</str> <str name="replicateAfter">startup</str> <!-- for testing purposes only!! --> <str name="snapshot">optimize</str> <str name="confFiles">solrconfig_slave.xml:solrconfig.xml,schema.xml</str> </lst> </requestHandler>
Where the replication is set to notify the slave to copy the index at optimize command, commit commands, and startup: the schema and the slave configuration is deployed to the slaves from the master.
<requestHandler name="/replication" class="solr.ReplicationHandler" > <lst name="slave"> <str name="masterUrl">http://solr1.somemasterserver.no:8010/solr/replication</str> <str name="pollInterval">00:02:00</str> <str name="compression">internal</str> <str name="httpConnTimeout">5000</str> <str name="httpReadTimeout">10000</str> </lst> </requestHandler>
Here the slave is polling the master every 2 minutes.
To deploy the replication configuration we decided to make two different solrconfig.xml files. "solrconfig_master.xml" and "solrconfig_slave.xml". These are then soft-linked on the different servers like this:
master: cd conf/ ln -s solrconfig.xml solrconfig_master.xml slave: cd conf/ ln -s solrconfig.xml solrconfig_slave.xml
This has the problem of the soft-link being moved on the slaves after a replication, which really is not such a problem since it ends up with the right configuration.
To allow direct matching against commercially sold search words the string multiValue fields was used. The multiValue (list) string fields has no index or querytime transformation and either matches or doesn't match. This allows for direct list matching on certain fields while giving broader hits in other more generic fields.
We ended up with making all queries lowercase before they hit the Solr index, and all direct match fields are lower-cased in the pipeline before making it into Solr.
First full run of yellow feed to solr using django+mysql exporter, homegrown document processing pipeline:
added batches of 10000 to Solr, only one commit at the end of the full feed.
added 1138544 docs in 11324 seconds
commit took 10 minutes
no memory leaks, and no errors from the pipeline.
setting up the solution to use a django exporter, mysql dump of whole white index (added index to 3 columns) and configuring the pipeline took about 4 hours (forgot to index the pk field so trouble shooted that for 1-2 hours)
while feeding : 188 documents pr second
exporter_white.py first run end print:
added bacthes of 10000 to Solr and ran a loop over 10000 lazy fetches from the db
fluch to Solr returned : True
commit to Solr returned : True
added 4016499 docs in 21498 seconds
so 6 hours for the first run, took Solr 2 minutes to commit the changes (seemed a bit low)

Close look on salivary gland infection
A salivary gland infection occurs once a viral or bacterial infection affects the salivary gland or duct. The infection can develop from the diminished flow of saliva that might be due to an obstruction or inflammation of the salivary duct.
Saliva helps with digestion, breaking down food and keeps the mouth clean. It also washes away food particles and bacteria. It also helps in controlling the amount of both good and bad bacteria in the mouth.
There are 3 pairs of large salivary glands located on each side of the face.
- Parotid glands – biggest glands and located within the cheek right above the jaw in front of the ears.
- Submandibular glands – located on each side of the jaw beneath the jawbone
- Sublingual glands – positioned on the base of the mouth beneath the tongue
What are the possible causes?
A salivary gland infection is usually triggered by a bacterial infection. Staphylococcus aureus is the usual cause of salivary gland infection. The other possible cause of the infection includes the following:
- Escherichia coli
- Streptococcus viridans
- Streptococcus pyogenes
- Haemophilus influenzae
Take note that these infections result from diminished production of saliva. This is often triggered by the obstruction or inflammation of the salivary gland duct. Certain viruses and other health conditions can also reduce the production of saliva such as the following:
- Herpes
- Mumps
- Dehydration
- Poor oral hygiene
- Malnutrition
- Radiation therapy for cancer in the head or neck area
- Tumor
- Blockage of the salivary duct due to mucus
- Salivary stone
- Influenza A
- Sarcoidosis
- Sjogren's syndrome
Indications of salivary gland infection
A doctor should be consulted so that an accurate diagnosis can be given. The indications of a salivary gland infection strikingly mimic other conditions with symptoms such as the following:
- Dry mouth
- Constant abnormal or foul taste in the mouth
- Facial pain
- Pus in the mouth
- Pain in the mouth
- Difficulty or inability to fully open the mouth
- Pain or discomfort when opening the mouth or while eating
- Swelling of the neck or face
- Swelling or redness over the jaw in front of the ears, beneath the jaw or base of the mouth
- Indications of infection such as chills or fever
A doctor should be consulted right away if an individual is suspected with a salivary gland infection along with high fever, difficulty swallowing or breathing or the symptoms are worsening.
Preventive measures
Remember that there is no way to prevent most cases of salivary gland infections. The ideal way to minimize the risk of developing the infection is to drink more fluids and observe good oral hygiene such as regular brushing and flossing of the teeth twice daily.

RE-BALANCE and RE-CONNECT FOR EXCELLENCE AND AUTHENTICITY. The world needs individuals to act and lead in a manner that is authentic to them and honors their unique qualities, capabilities and innate talents.
According to neuroscience, multi-tasking is not possible. As leaders, family members, role models, team players – we will be able to play some of these roles better, some less good and some we choose to skip along the day or the road.
The nowadays drive to do more in the complexity of each role – is impacting our families, our work and our health. Where does the balance come from?
Further to RE-BALANCE Program
BENEFITS. RISKS. COMPLEXITIES. In today's competitive market and information overload, companies like Apple, Google or Deutsche Bank have implemented mindfulness and meditation programs into the workplace. They know their employees are the most important asset and and their well being state is crucial.
On the other hand, we would like to state that "mindfulness is a distinct quality of attention that is dependent upon and influenced by many other factors: the nature of our thoughts, speech and actions; our way of making a living; our efforts to avoid unwholesome and unskillful behaviors, while developing those that are conducive to wise action, social harmony, and compassion." (Ron Purser, Ph.D., Professor of Management at San Francisco State University). Which mindfulness program would your organisation benefit from?

Huddersfield Town 2 Cardiff City 2
CARDIFF City blew their outside chance of automatic promotion last night after throwing away a two-goal lead against play-off rivals Hudders-field Town at the McAlpine Stadium.
The Bluebirds needed two points to ensure a top-six finish and here in West Yorkshire they were just 12 minutes away from booking their seat in the play-offs - as well as keeping the pressure on second-placed Reading - courtesy of two Peter Thorne goals inside 62 minutes.
The home side looked dead and buried but the match turned on its head in the 78th minute when referee Graham Laws awarded the Terriers a controversial penalty after Spencer Prior was ruled to have pushed substitute Andy Booth. Kenny Irons converted the spot-kick.
Four minutes later the Bluebirds saw what would have been their sixth straight victory disintegrate in front of their eyes when Chris Hay headed the equaliser to set up a dramatic finish.
City need one more point to guarantee a play-off place and City manager Lennie Lawrence will be hoping his players get that point against struggling Notts County at Ninian Park on Saturday to avoid a tense finale at Tranmere.
Lawrence made one change to the side that won at Colchester on the weekend - Gary Croft was relegated to the substitutes' bench as Scott Young returned to the heart of de-fence. Gabbidon, a centre-back last Saturday, took Croft's place at left-back.
The Terriers, without a win in three matches, were the first to threaten, Neil Alexander superbly denying Hay in the fifth minute.
The home side looked menacing on the right side and Delroy Facey saw his effort flash wide of the City goal after Leon Knight had beaten the tiredlooking Gabbidon.
Knight's presence in the Hudders-field line-up was a controversial subject. The striker should have been suspended from last night`s game after allegedly swearing at the referee during the Terriers' LDV Vans Trophy match at Blackpool. But his club appealed and this meant Knight, renowned for his volatile temper, could face the Bluebirds.
Huddersfield's Welsh goalkeeper, Martyn Margetson, had to wait until the 34th minute for his save of the night, the Neath-born shot-stopper comfortably diving to catch Kavanagh's 30-yard free-kick.
After a tepid opening the visitors had begun to creep into the game and Young squandered a great chance to put the Bluebirds ahead a minute later. Kavanagh delivered the perfect corner but the centre-back produced a disappointing downward header that bounced over the crossbar.
Thorne did break the deadlock with a curious goal in the 40th minute. Leo Fortune-West hooked Gabbidon's throw over Margetson and the ball looked like it was going to shave the upright, but Thorne was on hand to chest the ball into the empty net from no more than a couple of yards out.
It was Thorne's seventh goal for City and probably the easiest goal he has netted in his prolific career.
Lawrence should have returned to the visitors' dressing room a satisfied manager. Not only were his team ahead but his rearguard, after a hesitant start and a Gabbidon playing below-par, appeared to have the measure of the Terriers' attack with Young and his central defensive partner Prior outstanding. Huddersfield, in danger of losing their grip on a play-off place after an indifferent run of results, could not afford to lose this clash and 10 minutes after the break Terriers manager Lou Macari made a tactical change, striker Booth - who turned down a move to Ninian Park earlier this season because he did not want to leave his native Yorkshire - replacing John Thorrington with Knight moving to the right wing.
The substitution would prove a masterstroke although seven minutes after making his switch Macari saw his side fall two goals behind. Fortune-West released the former Stoke ace Thorne who slipped away from the Terriers defence before beating Margetson with a left-foot finish.
Lawrence was forced to make a change of his own, Croft replacing Gabbidon who was carried off the pitch with an injury to his left ankle.
There was an anxious moment for Lawrence in the 76th minute when Knight whipped in a cross from the right. Facey wriggled free of Young but his close-range shot lacked venom and Alexander saved easily.
However, two minutes later City's world caved in when referee Laws awarded the home side a penalty after Prior was ruled to have fouled Booth as he went to challenge Alexander for a high ball. Irons expertly beat the City goalkeeper from the spot and Alexander was picking the ball out of the net.
That goal lifted the Yorkshire side and four minutes later the McAlpine Stadium erupted when Hay headed the Terriers level.
Booth flicked on Irons's corner and Hay made no mistake from close range. The last few minutes were not for the faint-hearted but City at least held on for a point.

Although limited to 140-characters, a retweet (RT) could become a powerful piece of content to be consumed and shared. Notwithstanding "why users embrace retweeting, through broadcasting messages, they become part of a broader conversation" (Boyd et al.[1], 2010, p.10).
Bruns and Stieglitz[2] (2014, p.70-73) discuss the basic functions and metrics of Twitter. A tweet body itself includes the author (username), a timestamp and the sender's profile picture. The body may also include one or multiple hashtags, a reference URL(s), one or multiple @mentions, and the tweet origin, either is genuine (generated by the user) or retweeted by another user.
Boyd et al. (2010) examined retweeting, one of the major Twitter functions, as a "conversational practice" (p.1), which is strongly connected to "authorship, attribution, and communicative fidelity" that "are negotiated in diverse ways" (p1).
Seen as an equivalent of email forwarding, retweeting is "the act of copying and rebroadcasting" that is at the heart of building a "conversational ecology" (p.1) on Twitter. According to the authors, retweeting purposes are twofold:
1) information spreading and
2) validating what other say and/or engaging with the others.
Given the nature of Twitter and its attributes, retweeting may raise concerns about "authorship, attribution and communicative fidelity" (p1). Given the simplicity of Twitter functions, messaging could be both an asset and a drawback.
To support this statement, based on their case study and empirical research, Boyd et al. (2010, p.5) identify two ways of retweeting behaviour:
1) either by preserving or slightly editing the tweet content (where then authorship as such is questionable) and
2) shortening the content through deletion.
The authors also looked at the reasons why people retweet. They listed ten such reasons:
- to amplify or spread tweets
- to entertain
- to add comments to a tweet
- to make one's presence as a listener visible
- to publicly agree with someone
- to validate others' thoughts
- to prove friendship and loyalty
- to refer to less popular people/content
- to gain followers or reciprocity from more visible users
- to save tweets for future personal access (Adapted from Boyd et al., 2010, p.6).
Even though Twitter expanded its functions in the past few years, the platform still bears some ambiguities that imply content modification, authorship acknowledge and "communicative fidelity", on one hand. On the other hand, given these attributes, Twitter has become a transparent platform where content is public and accessible to anyone.
Bruns and Stieglitz[3] (2012) carried out a comparative study that focused on more than 40 cases covering major topics and events on Twitter: elections, natural disasters, corporate crises and others. Based on the research outcomes and a number of communicative metrics they conclude that "thematic and contextual factors influence the usage of different communicative tools available to Twitter users, such as original tweets, @replies, retweets, and URLs" (p.160) while the communication patterns employed in the context of major topics and events are steady.
"Twitter activities […] appear to be governed by a number of standard practices" (p.178) where Twitter users tend to find, share and re-share breaking news and other "acute events". Twitter is the "backchannel" where "original commentary [… ] does not engage with the tweets of the others" (p.179) or offer links to additional information. Data gathering implied capturing 40 hashtag datasets covering a wide range of major topics and events, by using yourTwapperkeeper, a tool, which was apparently discontinued by Twitter in 2011.

China is a developing country and for what world knows it's not specially famous to be particularly attentive to details or its own environment. This doesn't correspond exactly to today Chinese reality though and this turns to be pretty evident already once even an occasional visitor landing in Beijing goes along the way that takes him from the airport to the city centre. What he can see around the huge infrastructure system, around the highway accesses, under the overpasses, along the fast train railways is just an amazing unexpected attention for every single detail composing a simply beautiful landscape. Hundreds of different materials creating borders and slops, concrete, metal, stone, water, trees, flowers, bushes, grass, everything perfectly and harmoniously combined to create, through nature, artificial beautiful landscapes.
Always speaking from the occasional visitor's point of view, he easily could point out that taking particular care of the most important road that gives access to a capital city is or could be a common habit all over the world and it could be just a way to save the appearance. That wouldn't be absolutely true if we actually hadn't observed that all over China the most parts of the connecting spaces and especially along all the infrastructures either in urban or rural context as well, are treated at the same way of the big important public alleys. From our experience in fact, we personally have the chance to observe daily how landscape, especially around infrastructure, are generally well designed and in such a capillary way that seams a very spontaneous habit that apparently doesn't take many efforts to be accomplished.
It is a fact by the way that this kind of operations anyhow gives new values to cities and their territory.
As Italian observers, this image of beauty and order is not exactly what happens to remind when we compare our Italian experience with this new Chinese one. It will be already enough to recall the desolating scenery that accompany us all the way long from the airport Milano Malpensa to the city center. Here in fact, where our attention is not caught by the desolating post industrial disorder of the anonymous mills around, or by the obsolete and old finishes of the airport itself, we can just focus on the ugliness, negligence, and indifference which connective spaces and decorating elements along the infrastructures are treated with.
Always as Italian observers then, it's spontaneous to remind with a kind of nostalgic feelings, the good old times when in our country also the doors of the city were used to be triumphal arcs, when the central stations were built as monuments and able to affect important parts of the cities, creating avenues and promenades, trying to be remembered for the rest of the future. A time where simple water ducts were able to add new layers to the natural environment around and create for them new values.
Italian cities are famous to the world, meant to be beautiful and we are surely proud of this, but it's also a regret for us, as Italian architects living in China, cause we know that this common image only refers to our glorious past and to what the luck allowed to be still on all through the time.
Trying to learn from the differences, in our blog we will try to understand, or at least to describe, always through our architectural filter and throughout our personal and professional experience in China, how and why in our own countries we assist to a loose of value and skills in treating landscape topics, this despite of the increase of the number of landscape design universities or city landscape commissions and dipole of the more diffuse sensibility of the public opinion.

Hi Teresa,
Thought you might like to see some updated pictures of Eve. We just took her to Washington DC for the weekend and she was a perfect angel on the flight. She has a playdate this weekend with Hunter, another puppy that our friends just adopted thanks to you.
Hope all is well. As you can tell from the photos, we just love Eve.
Take care,

PARIS — Paris. -- The Paul Touvier trial in Paris was supposed to be another ''trial of the century,'' but has proved to be nothing of the kind. The people put on trial for the genocidal crimes disfiguring the 20th century have repeatedly proved to be moral mediocrities. None of them -- Mr. Touvier, Klaus Barbie, Adolf Eichmann, among others -- has demonstrated a stature appropriate to the evil of the events in which each figured.
Mr. Touvier, officer of the wartime Vichy French political police, is charged with a ''crime against humanity'' for his part in the execution of seven Jewish hostages in 1944, in reprisal for the French Resistance's killing of the Vichy government's information minister.
He turns out to have been an unimportant mid-level officer in the para-military ''Milice,'' an anti-Semitic functionary of limited responsibilities and modest intelligence. His lawyer has claimed that he was actually ''a Schindler'' who saved Jewish lives by reducing the number of hostages actually killed from the 30 allegedly demanded by the German authorities to a ''mere'' seven. This presumptuous line of defense collapsed when Mr. Touvier's notebooks from the 1980s were produced in court, rife with hatred and anti-Semitic comments on current events.
