midocean ridges alternating bands of different magnetic fields appearing nearly symmetrically on opposite sides of midocean ridges deep sea trenches etc.
Why did most of Russia's rivers flow north into the Arctic Ocean?
Russia's big mountain ranges are in the south. Those ranges do have rivers flowing south - but they flow into other countries. So the North sides of these ranges flow north 'DOWN' to the Artic.
The Sacramento Valley of California does not have a west coast marine climate mainly because?
the coastal mountain ranges stand between it and the Pacific Ocean

Q: QGIS Intersection tool not allowing Save file as Shapefile In QGIS 2.16.2  I am trying to intersect two Shapefiles to create a third Shapefile, however the Intersection tool is only allowing Save file as DBR, CSV, XLSX or ODS - not SHP.  One of the Shapefiles was just made and saved using Intersection Run as Batch Process in this project.
If I start a new project and add the Shapefiles  I can intersect and create a third Shapefile.  I've intersected Shapefiles created from intersected Shapefiles  in the same project before and not had this problem.
File1.shp  intersect w/ IntersectedFile2.shp should make IntersectedFile3.shp
   - Does not work in the same project where IntersectedFile2.shp was created.
Works in new project.
Is this a bug or am I missing something?

A: I had the same problem.
I tried using the v.clean tool, then resaved and it worked.

com.parse4cn1

Class ParseObject

java.lang.Object

com.parse4cn1.ParseObject

All Implemented Interfaces:

Parse.IPersistable

Direct Known Subclasses:

ParseInstallation, ParseRole, ParseUser

public class ParseObject
extends java.lang.Object
implements Parse.IPersistable

The ParseObject is a local representation of data that can be saved and
 retrieved from the Parse cloud.

 The basic workflow for creating new data is to construct a new ParseObject,
 use put(java.lang.String, java.lang.Object) to fill it with data,
 and then use save() to persist to the cloud.

 The basic workflow for accessing existing data is to use a ParseQuery
 to specify which existing data to retrieve.

 ParseObjects are Externalizable, i.e., they
 can be converted to an externalizable form via asExternalizable().

 Note: The Parse backend always stores and returns UTC dates
 so the time zone information in any Date objects should be ignored
 and all dates retrived from Parse or sent to Parse should be in UTC.

The API Corner: Verifying That Nothing Has Changed
Bruce Vining
Previous Article The API Corner: Verifying That Nothing Has Changed, Part 2
Next Article The API Corner: Manipulating a Job's Library List
Learn what the Calculate Hash API can do for you.
In the past month, I've been asked two related questions. The first was "Can my AS/400 [sic] work with hashes?" and the second, a bit more specific, "Can the i generate a SHA-256 hash to work with a Linux system?" The answer to both questions, as you might expect, is yes, there's an API for that (as long as the system is at V5R3 or higher that is, in the case of the AS/400 question).
Hashing, if you are not familiar with the term, is a mechanism by which a fixed-length value can be generated from a string of data in such as way that it is extremely unlikely that some other data string will generate the same hash value. That is, if one program writes a string such as "The i is the best system in the world," which hashes to the value X, and another program subsequently reads a different string (due to "someone" altering the original value) and generates a hash value based on the altered string, then it is highly unlikely that the second program will also generate X. If the second program generates X, then no one has changed the data. If the second program generates Y, then the data has been altered. The writing of the original data string might be to another system, a DB2 table on the same system, an IFS stream file, or whatever other mechanism you might want to use within your application. The original hash value X might be written with the original string in an encrypted form using a key known by the receiving program, written to read-only storage for later access by the receiving program, or protected in some other fashion that allows the receiving program to determine the original hash value of X.
The Calculate Hash API, documented here, is provided as both a program (QC3CALHA) and a procedure (Qc3CalculateHash). The following program demonstrates how to use the Qc3CalculateHash procedure to hash the string 'Some data to be hashed'.
h dftactgrp(*no)
d HshDta pr extproc('Qc3CalculateHash')
d InpDta 4096a const options(*varsize)
d LenInpDta 10i 0 const
d FmtInpDta 8a const
d AlgDsc 4096a const options(*varsize)
d FmtAlgDsc 8a const
d CryptoPrv 1a const
d CryptoDev 10a const
d HshVal 1a options(*varsize)
d ErrCde likeds(qusec)
d Data s 25a inz('Some data to be hashed')
d HashValue s 32a
/copy qsysinc/qrpglesrc,qc3cci
/copy qsysinc/qrpglesrc,qusec
/free
QUSBPrv = 0;
QC3HA = 3;
HshDta(Data :%len(%trimr(Data)) :'DATA0100'
:QC3D0500 :'ALGD0500' :'0' :' '
:HashValue :QUSEC);
*inlr = *on;
/end-free
As you can see, there's not much to the program!
The program starts by prototyping the Qc3CalculateHash API using the name HshDta. The nine parameters passed to the API are used in the following manner:
Input data (InpDta)—Depending on the Input data format (the third parameter), either a variable-length string containing the data to be hashed or an array identifying one or more variable-length strings containing the data to be hashed
Length of input data (LenInpDta)—Depending on the Input data format (the third parameter), either the length of the Input data to be hashed or the number of array entries to process within the Input data parameter
Input data format name (FmtInpDta)—The format of the Input data (the first parameter). Format DATA0100 indicates that a single variable-length string is to be hashed, Format DATA0200 that an array of variable-length strings are to be hashed
Algorithm description (AlgDsc)—The algorithm to be used when hashing the data
Algorithm description format name (FmtAlgDsc)—The format of the Algorithm description (the fourth parameter). Format ALGD0100 indicates that the Calculate Hash API may be called multiple times in order to process all of the data to be hashed. Using this format, the algorithm to be used is defined using another API (which will be reviewed in a future article). Format ALGD0500 indicates that the Calculate Hash API will be called once (with all of the data to be hashed) and that the algorithm to be used can be found directly in the fourth parameter. Other formats are defined (ALGD0200, ALGD0300, etc.) but are used for functions other than hashing.
Cryptographic service provider (CryptoPrv)—Depending on the system configuration, you may have both software and hardware cryptographic capabilities. A value of '0' indicates that the system should decide where to perform the hashing function, a value of '1' that software should be used to perform the hashing function, and a value of '2' that hardware should be used to perform the hashing function.
Cryptographic device name (CryptoDev)—When the sixth parameter indicates that hardware should be used to perform the hashing function, this parameter identifies the name of the cryptographic device.
Hash (HshVal)—The parameter to receive the generated hash value. The size of this parameter is determined by the algorithm being used.
Error code (ErrCde)—The standard API error code parameter
Having prototyped the Calculate Hash API, the program then sets the Bytes provided field (QUSBPrv) of the error code structure to 0 (indicating that errors are to be returned as escape messages), sets the Hash algorithm to be used (QC3HA) to 3 (indicating the algorithm to be used is SHA-256), and calls the API. The field QC3HA is defined as an element of the structure QC3D0500, which is provided in member QC3CCI of source file QSYSINC/QRPGLESRC.
The hash algorithm to be used (QC3HA) supports the following values:
MD-5 returns a hash value of 16 bytes in length.
SHA-1 returns a hash value of 20 bytes in length.
SHA-256 returns a hash value of 32 bytes in length.
Using tools such as Google, you can find more information than you probably ever wanted on each of these algorithms. The key points I would like to make are:
The algorithm selected determines the size you need to allocate for the Hash value parameter. As we're using value 3, SHA-256, in the sample program we've allocated 32 bytes for the HashValue field passed as the 8th parameter (HshVal) of the API.
Not all of these algorithms should be used for new development. The first two algorithms (MD-5 and SHA-1) are considered weak and are supported by the API primarily for compatibility with existing application use of hashing. New development, where possible, should use the algorithms SHA-256, SHA-384, or SHA-512.
When calling the Calculate Hash API, the data to be hashed is variable Data, the length of the data to be hashed is the blank trimmed length of variable Data, the data format used is DATA0100, the algorithm is SHA-256, all of the data to be hashed is passed on this API call, the system is to determine where to perform the hashing, and the generated hash value is to be returned to variable HashValue.
Assuming that the sample program is stored in member DOHASH of source file QRPGLESRC, you can create the program using the command CRTBNDRPG PGM(DOHASH).
Calling DOHASH will generate a 32-byte HashValue (shown in hex) of:
06E931E8 C399BD60 B3FC4263 C21BCDF3
F8BD668A 6AF9278E 2791D2B0 95DD8F92
In order to demonstrate how any alteration of the data to be hashed can impact the generated hash value, let's change the call to the API from using a second parameter of %len(%trimr(Data)) to using a parameter value of %size(Data). The difference here is that while Data is defined with a length of 25 bytes, the string 'Some data to be hashed' is only 22 bytes in length. Using the %size built-in will have the effect of having the API process three trailing blanks.
Recompiling and calling DOHASH after this change now generates a 32-byte HashValue of:
7FCBD451 76B2E190 AFC956AE F507CB35
A9C7F58B 36A68E25 58E9F3F9 736FB213
This new HashValue, as I'm sure you've noticed, is fundamentally different. Altering the string to be hashed by simply adding three blanks is more than sufficient for a new hash value to be generated. So you need to make sure that whatever program is generating a hash value in order to verify that a string has not been altered is using the same assumptions (length in this case) as the program originally generating the hash value to be compared with.
Given that just adding three blanks changed the generated hash value, it should be no surprise that adding a period to the end of the string ('Some data to be hashed. ' where there are two blanks following the period) will also generate a wildly different HashValue:
E32F1577 B88BD513 78551D15 13E5C4D3
3765A423 FDF4975D DD56CE70 63069806
Before closing, I would like to point out one "gotcha" that may save you minutes, days, or even weeks of head scratching. Over the years, I've seen several companies take a string such as 'Some data to be hashed', generate a hash value, write the string to a database file, FTP the file to another system, and then find that the string, when hashed on the other system, generates a different hash. As their use of the Calculate Hash API is new, they assume that they are using the API incorrectly when in fact their use is right on. What is typically the case is that the FTP operation converted the EBCDIC string 'Some data to be hashed' to the ASCII string 'Some data to be hashed' and, just as adding a blank to the string to be hashed changed the generated hash value, converting the data from EBCDIC to ASCII also changed the generated hash value. Along the same lines, writing the string 'Some data to be hashed' to an IFS stream file can, depending on how your job and stream file are defined, cause the system to perform an EBCDIC-to-ASCII conversion under the covers. So make sure the data you are generating the hash from is indeed the data that will be subsequently used when generating the hash value to verify that the data has not been altered (length of data, encoding of data, etc.).

Hackers are increasingly scrutinising Microsoft Office, looking for – and finding – vulnerabilities to abuse. This is according to a newly released report from Kaspersky Lab, which claims that 70 per cent of all threats the company recorded in the fourth quarter of last year – were related to Office in one way or another.
That's a 400 per cent jump compared to just two years before, when Office vulnerabilities took up some 16 per cent of the registered threats market.
What's important to note is that hackers rarely exploit vulnerabilities in Office itself, but rather the related components are what's considered the weakest link.
Two of the most exploited vulnerabilities were found in Office's legacy Equation Editor. Security researchers from Kaspersky Lab believe hackers are looking for "simple, logical bugs".
However, in order to exploit these vulnerabilities, one would require an Office file.
Usually, in order for these types of vulnerabilities to work, an unsuspecting victim needs to download and run a malicious payload, and those are usually distributed via email. So be careful when receiving attachments, make sure to doublecheck the address it's coming from (hackers can imitate legitimate websites quite well nowadays) and make sure you trust the person sending you the attachment.

EVIL's All Inclusive Resort. "Paradise Z" reviewed! ((Yet) Another Distribution Company / Digital Screener)
Sylvia and Rose are living the life of harmonious luxury together on a beautiful and serene Thailand resort. There's only one tiny problem with their first-class accommodations: the world surrounding them is overrun by a population of rabidly crazed zombies. After establishing a rigorous routine of perimeter checks and pool time, food and gas are running dangerous low to keep a secluded and safe survival lifestyle sustained, leaving them no choice but to venture out to nearby villages in search for fuel, but the smallest of sounds could invite the hungry dead to storm their idyllic retreat. No matter how careful scouring outside the gated walls of isolated tranquility, the zombies' insidious ways infest as bad resorts guests that turn Sylvia and Rose's make-due habitation to their prospective tomb when all routes of escape are foiled by flesh-feasting zombies. The couple must rely on each other for survival.
There's trouble in paradise from Wych Kaosayananda's melancholic-apocalypticism horror "Paradise Z" focusing on two young women, romantically brought together by undead circumstances, to outlive the encompassing fatalist outlook. Marketed in the United Kingdom as a "Lesbian Zombie Apocalypse Gore-fest" and having been through the wringer with title changes from the original title of "Two of Us" to "Dead Earth," as called in the States, the uptrend to incorporate the Z in any zombie film has been a musky motif ever since Max Brooks introduced the epithet for his 2006 zombie apocalypse novel, "World War Z," yet that doesn't stop writers Kaosayananda and Steve Poirier in dishing out a sanguine trilogy with "Paradise Z" laying the ground work as the first installment and "The Driver," the third installment, following suit shortly after wrapping production on "Paradise Z." With the second film, "The Rider," is still in pre-production and the shot films released out of sequential order, Kaosayananda's unconventional trilogy methods caters to a seemingly budget and location ready-timeline to which characters from all three films will interconnect the dissociated titles under the filmmaker's self-funded production company, Kaos Entertainment.
Throughout the entire 1-hour and 35-minute runtime, there are only five speaking roles with three of those roles rarely comprising of about four minutes of combined dialogue, assigning by default much of the chitchat the principle characters, Sylvia and Rose. For the first nine and half minutes, Milena Gorum and Alice Tantayanon don't say a single word as the day's routine of waking up, showering, topless swimming, poolside yoga, lunch, and other recreational activities dominate the setup of quietude. When Gorum (as Sylvia) and Tantayanon (Rose) do utter a few words, they're muttered projection is nearly unintelligible with little effort into the purpose of speaking. Born in Los Angeles and now, predominately, a New York city fashion model, Gorum has come across my radar before with a bit Succubus role in the 2017, Cleopatra Films produced demonic thriller, "The Black Room," opposite Lin Shaye, Lukas Hassel, and Natasha Henstridge and though "Paradise Z" provides Gorum with her first lead role that showcases her immense beauty but limited acting range. The same wooden expressive opinion can be said for the little known Alice Tantayanon whose pigeonholed herself into a Kaosayananda celluloid corner with her only credits being three of his films. Sylvia and Rose rarely separate from each other sides, being lovers noodled into a pot of thick zombie soup, in a rigid position of affixed dynamics difficult to gauge how either one of them is handling the situation. When a show of complexity is finally unveiled, such as when Sylvia murders in cold blood two other survivors and turns to Rose to say it's better this way, those actions somewhere along the story from there on out should be dissected in explaining just why lacerating two men to death is a good thing. Of course, we can all assume the survival of the fittest and selfish obvious reason that two rugged men are looking for more than just a box of Twinkies and an unopened can of goulash substitute from two good-looking ladies outside the safety of their homemade stronghold; yet, doesn't answer where the killer instincts root and Kaosayananda shelves that bit of human nature when the zombie caca spreads throughout the resort upon their return that also evaporates a steamy sex scene and inklings of frustration for their dwindling supplies and mundane routine symbolizing an inching wedge between them. "Ghost House's" Michael S. New rounds out the cast the DJ, an on-air beacon of infected information.
An Elysian-fabricated getaway resort can be an ideal hunker down for an apocalypse of the zombie kind. Mega resorts have a large footprint that are usually gated and fenced, plenty of food and lodging to accommodate a small village, and an escape route from the beach to the open waters where we all know zombies can't swim. That works here for "Paradise Z" and almost plays like a pillar character that embeds the women survivalists from going on walkabouts, creating a real sense of comfortable isolation and simmering paranoia of the outside world. Kaosayananda, who can't quite get the bad taste that lingers from out his mouth with the panned Antonio Banderas and Lucy Liu starring critically slammed and chaos-riddled film "Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever," left himself to his own devices in trying to rebuild his career shooting in Thailand, but "Paradise Z" crumbles as a stepping stone trilogy that lacks proper severe conflict of placing the heroines into a tight, perhaps inescapable, spot. What the couple have to escape from are the wild, warm flesh-craving leftovers of a plagued mankind, springing to a sprint at the first audible or visual morsel that tickles the eardrums, but the patchwork caked-face, grayscale zombies don't render the likes from the bygone Golden Age of Horror, or even the current Golden Age of Modern Horror for that matter, in what looks and feels like cheap knockoffs of the genuine fictional man-eaters by rouge applying professionals. What Kaosayananda has made here is a two-tone, straight-forward, out-smart the dumb zombie breed of uninspired mirth, burdening the actresses to shoulder the story on looks alone rather than include emotional depth oppressed by the Z-factor.
Spend your vacation in a halcyon "Paradise Z" exclusively releasing on UK digital platforms come the new year on January 4th from the marginalized advocating distributor (Yet) Another Distribution Company. In regards to cinematography, presented in a widescreen 2.39:1 aspect ratio, Kaosayananda safely approaches most stories set in Thailand with a warm, yellowish glaze overtop the lush tropic vegetation, but, aside from a class I rapid stream the women decide to cool off in on a whim, without weapons and, basically, in their skivvies, outside the resort walls, there's a limit to the Thai landscapes that doesn't reach beyond the resort perimeter sufficing to just the surrounding allure rather than cutting in scenes of breath-taking grandeur. Kaosayananda occasionally reduces the frames per second to emphasize certain scenes with slow motion, such as with Gorum and Tatayanon's topless make out session or when the two are back-to-back unloading an unlimited amount of ammo against a rushing horde with every shot being a fatal one; the silver lining here is the scene is at least aesthetically cool to watch. However, once again, Sylvia and Rose are given winning hands to play without as much showing their cards that work backwards their highly skilled background of arms fire. With the digital screener, there were no bonus material or bonus scenes included. No need to check the yelp reviews on holiday spot as "Paradise Z" is a four star resort with one star performances battling an underwhelming, minimum gory zombie contingent without dutifully jeopardizing survivors enough for the sake of gratefully being alive.

Watch A Train Arrives at the Station
A Train Arrives at the Station
A Train Arrives at the Station • 14m
"This film was a gift to me. I make no claims for it, nor do I offer any apologies. It comes from work on The Thoughts That Once We Had. There was one shot we had to cut whose loss I particularly regretted. It was a shot of a train pulling into Tokyo Station from Ozu's The Only Son (1936). So I decided to make a film around this shot, an anthology of train arrivals. It comprises 26 scenes or shots from movies, 1904-2015. It has a simple serial structure: each black & white sequence in the first half rhymes with a color sequence in the second half. Thus the first shot and the final shot show trains arriving at stations in Japan from a low camera height. In the first shot (The Only Son), the train moves toward the right; in the last shot, it moves toward the left. A bullet train has replaced a steam locomotive. So after all these years, I've made another structural film, although that was not my original intention." - Thom Andersen, director


ARDIS has the possibility to control the most brands of CNC & nesting machines available on the market. Hereby we can use different methods of working. Together with the customer we decide what is the best way to move forward with him.
Since the drilling are in the universal ARDIS-format we can quickly and easily export them to the machine specific file format for one or more machines. Herby we use the flexible ARDIS CNC-postprocessors. They give you the possibility to generate the proper machine files such as (bbp; mpr; Xiliog; …) or by generating directly the G-code.
Keep flexibility and possibility to still make modifications on the machine.
This way of working is ideal for companies that require a high flexibility and customization.
The conventional WOPS will use your already existing parametrical CNC-programs. These programs you are currently using by filling in the required parameters manually and save the program under another name or the operator at the machine modifies them manually before he executes them. In this case ARDIS can be, again, of a great value to you. You'll just have to assign a program to a part and automatically ARDIS will fill in a whole set of parameters. If modifications or subprograms still would be required they can be added at all times. After optimization ARDIS will automatically generate a unique CNC program for each part inclusive a unique barcode. What gives the operator the chance and possibility to scan in the barcode and open automatically the program.
If your production runs don't contain more than 20% non-rectangular parts the yield of the ARDIS optimization will be almost always much better. We are happy to help you to analyses your production list.
ARDIS has a lot of special features to generate more complex, not executable on a conventional saw, patterns. What directly results into a serious increase of yield.
Since our algorithm is based upon rectangular parts we work with continuing lines. ARDIS can, instead of milling the outline of each part, mill straight away the cutting lines and by that avoid a lot unnecessary operations. This improves overall processingspeed a lot.

Promotions will be held on August 14, starting at 8.00 pm on Boat Theater.
We invite all good reading lovers to join us in a unique atmosphere on the Danube bank and gain a new perspective on Brazil.
Austrian writer who was escaping the vortex of World War II and found his resort in Brazil. Extremely sensitive Zweig suffered too much because Europe, rich in cultural heritage which he considered his indivisible spiritual homeland, suffered slavery and humiliation, plunged into darkness of heartless barbarity.
This travelogue presents his personal impression on Brazil, the vast and fertile land, historicly devoided of major wars, country of untouched beauty that for him represented almost utopian place seemingly unaffected by the ills of the modern world.
"... I spent half a year in this country, and only now I know, despite my zeal for learning and traveling, how much I still miss in order to create a really complete overview of this vast empire and how a whole lifetime wouldn't be enough so you may say: I know Brazil. "
This bilingual edition is a collection of 53 poems by Vinicius de Moraes, published by the Embassy of Brazil in Belgrade in cooperation with the publishing house IP Glosarijum from Belgrade in order to mark the centenary of the poets birth (1913-2013).
Most of the poems in the book are completely unknown to our audience. However, fans of bossa nova will probably recognize many of the lyrics in Portuguese, since the book is rich with poems that Vinisijus has written as texts for compositions made by Tom Jobim such as the famous "Girl from Ipanema". Now our audience who doesn't speak Portuguese will be finally able to understand what are the words sung in those songs.

The year 2016 was a tough one for a lot of people. There was so much that was lost, and there were many times when it seemed like the world was going to end. With every passing month it felt as though the universe was trying to tear itself apart, but as the clocked finally counted down to zero signaling the New Year, many were sure that 2017 would be the year of new beginnings.
I began the year the way I always do— looking back on the goals that I set and achieved in the past year, thinking about what to strive for in the new one, and sipping water and Gatorade the morning of the first as if it were the elixir of life.
Last year I was lacing up my running shoes in the hopes of finishing a half marathon. I couldn't possibly imagine actually finishing one without being dragged across in a stretcher, but I managed to complete my first half marathon race in Oregon with a group of extremely fit friends.
This year I plan on still lacing up my shoes, but I'm not setting any specific distance to achieve. Instead, I'm only worried about keeping to a schedule and finishing what I start.
I've noticed that I often times come up with some pretty cool ideas and amazing goals that I begin working on but may not always finish. I have accomplished some great things that I am proud of, such as the half marathon, my Bachelors and Masters degrees, and small consulting business that I have created on my own, but I just know that I could achieve so much more if I adopted a steady schedule and stuck to it.
I want to think about my goals realistically in the New Year, plan them out, and work on better time management. It's a strange and simple resolution, but it may also be one of the harder resolutions that I have ever set for myself.
You are amazing and will get where you want to go. Sometimes you don't realize how far you've come until you realize where you had started. Keep moving forward, you've got this!

Rewriting Life
Cancer Blood Tests Score Early Success
Hong Kong doctors, led by researcher Dennis Lo, show that liquid biopsy tests can spot cancer early.
by Antonio Regalado
The first major field study of a new type of blood test to detect cancer early shows the technique can probably save lives, at least in certain circumstances.
A study in Hong Kong in which about 20,000 men were tested and then followed for three years found that nasopharyngeal cancer could be detected and treated early. That cancer, which grows in the throat, is exceptionally common in south China.
The result provides a peek at the promise and limitations of "liquid biopsies"—tests that may be able to spot tumor DNA in a person's blood even before they have any overt symptoms.
The study, published by the New England Journal of Medicine, was carried out by the Chinese University of Hong Kong and led by Dennis Lo, a researcher who has played a pivotal role in the development of DNA blood tests, including those used for pregnant women.
Commercial interest in the cancer screening tests is mounting, with one U.S. company called Grail raising more than $1 billion to pursue the idea. Earlier this year, Grail merged with Cirina, a tiny startup founded by Lo, bringing it a number of important patents and letting it draw dramatically closer to commercialization.
Lo said his blood test isn't available commercially yet in Hong Kong. Grail declined to reveal its commercial time line.
"We are planning to develop a screening test to help identify people at risk for this type of cancer in areas where it is common, initially in Hong Kong," says a Grail spokesperson, Charlotte Arnold. "We are still in the planning stages and will provide more details at a later stage."
Grail, a Silicon Valley startup, made a splash with its entry into the testing arena last year, including by hiring Jeff Huber, a prominent Google software executive, to be its CEO, initially suggesting a prominent role for computers and big data (see "Grail's $1 Billion Bet on the Perfect Cancer Test").
However, last week Huber relinquished the CEO role in an executive shuffle, though he retains a board seat.
The new report from Hong Kong highlights just how important smart and carefully executed medical studies will be to the new liquid biopsy technology.
The study there looked at nasopharyngeal cancer, which is closely associated with infection by the Epstein-Barr virus. Each tumor cell has as many as 50 copies of the virus's genome inside it, and when these cells die, the virus's genetic material is released into the bloodstream. There, it can be picked up with a simple, inexpensive genetic test costing around $30.
In 2013, Lo and a group of Hong Kong doctors began testing middle-aged Chinese men with no cancer symptoms for traces of the virus (see "10 Breakthrough Technologies, 2015: Liquid Biopsy").
Of the 20,000 men they tested, 309 of them, or 1.5 percent, scored positive on the blood test. Of those, 34 were found to actually have nasopharyngeal carcinoma when a doctor checked them with an endoscope or an MRI.
That means one in 10 men who tested positive really had cancer, but didn't know it.
At the same time, only one of the more than 19,000 men who tested negative have since developed the disease, meaning few true cases were missed.
Lo, in an e-mail, described as "remarkable" how often silent, early-stage cancers are being found and successfully treated, with few of those men progressing to advanced cancer. Normally, this type of cancer is detected fairly late, and survival rates are about 60 percent after five years.
While Lo seems to have proven that this liquid biopsy screening test really works, nasopharyngeal cancer is a special case. That is because the presence of the virus in tumor cells makes it much easier and cheaper to test for.
Lo estimates that, overall, it cost $28,600 to find each cancer case, mostly due to the cost of testing men who didn't end up having the disease.
Grail's challenge is more difficult. It has been working on tests that use high-speed sequencers to search much more broadly through a person's blood for hints of genetic material shed by tumors. Most of these, like lung or breast cancer, aren't caused by viruses but by small mutations present in a person's genome, which makes them more difficult and costly to detect.
In Grail's laboratory, examining one person's blood can easily cost $1,000—a price that could create huge expenditures if applied broadly as a public health measure as part of a screening program. By contrast, the simpler tests used by Lo in Hong Kong cost far less.
Lo's study also highlights how important it is to test people already at high risk for cancer, as middle-aged Chinese men are for nasopharyngeal tumors.
While Grail's founding goal is to develop a "pan-cancer" test able to spot many cancers at an annual checkup, the company is currently recruiting 120,000 women to provide blood samples, with the aim of developing a blood screening test for breast cancer.

Q: Swift unexpectedly found nil while unwrapping an Optional value on let variable I am fairly new to iOS development. I can't figure out what I am doing wrong for the life of me. I am getting the

"Thread 1: EXC_BAD_INSTRUCTION (code=EXC_l386_NVOP, subcode=0x0)"

error with the menCalories variable. In the debugger I am getting the error:

"fatal error: unexpectedly found nil while unwrapping an Optional value"

Here is my code. Any help would be very much appreciated.
@IBAction func calculate(sender: AnyObject) {

    var ageInt:Int? = age.text!.toInt()
    var weightInt:Int? = weightLabel.text!.toInt()
    var heightInt:Int? = height.text!.toInt()

    if gender.selectedSegmentIndex == 0 {

        let menCalories:Double = 66.47 + (13.75 * Double(weightInt!)) + (5.0 * Double(heightInt!)) - (6.75 * Double(ageInt!))

        calories.text = "\(menCalories)"

    }

    if gender.selectedSegmentIndex == 1 {

    }

}

A:
"fatal error: unexpectedly found nil while unwrapping an Optional value"

This happens when the Optional doesn't have any value.
What you need to do is check that the variable is not nil before you unwrap it.
For example, assumming ageInt is the Optional with the nil value:
if ageInt != nil {
    // Do Something
}

Or safely unwrapping the value with an if let statement:
if let safeAgeInt = ageInt {
   // Do Something with safeAgeInt
}

Work on the "Scattered Members" is focused, to begin with, on recording, cataloguing, documenting photographically and graphically, and on classifying and arranging all the scattered material lying today on the Acropolis Rock. The scattered material comes from all historical phases of the Acropolis. It consists primarily of architectural members, preserved completely or as fragments. There are also various other sorts of stone archaeological remains, such as inscribed stones, fragments of statues or reliefs, marble vessels, small altars, trays, dedicatory bases, and so forth. One of the primary objectives of the project is to identify and attribute pieces of architectural members to individual monuments of the Acropolis and its surroundings; also connecting and joining them to previously known members of the various monuments, so that the material can be utilized in the anastelosis being carried out on and around the Sacred Rock. The same principle is applied to other categories of ancient works of art, for example the attribution of fragments to already known pieces of sculpture. The final goal of the project is to organise the scattered material so that it will be close to its position in the ultimate arrangement, use and display of the archaeological site of the Acropolis.
Scholarly research and publication of the material or part of it is, by definition, an obligation bound to the project of the "Scattered Members". The amount of material is unquestionably vast and systematic study and comparison probably requires their removal from the Sacred Rock. This will indeed contribute to the appearance and display of the monuments as well as to the final arrangement of the archaeological site, when the works of restoration have been completed.
Systematic research on the "Scattered Members" was started in 1977 by the Committee for Conservation of the Acropolis Monuments, which recognized the urgent need to document and organise the large body of material. From 2000 on, the work on the "Scattered Members" has been included with the programs of the Acropolis Restoration Service. The team of specialized technicians working on the project is headed by an architect or archaeologist. From 1977 to 1994 scholars responsible for the work were the architects T. Tanoulas, D. Giraud and Th. Tsitroulis, followed by the archaeologist K. Kissas and, beginning in 2007, the archaeologist E. Sioumpara.
The methodology followed in research on the "Scattered Members" is, briefly, the following: collection of the material or dismantling the stone piles, removal of the fragments to wooden stands. This is followed by initial classification, inventory numbers are assigned, and the fragments are catalogued and documented photographically and graphically. Pieces without original surface are collected in separate stone piles. Attribution, in close collaboration with the civil engineers responsible for the work-sites of the monuments, and delivery of the architectural members to the anastelosis works. After being catalogued, the fragments of sculpture, inscriptions, many selected architectural members and all the archaic architectural members are handed over to the Ephorate of Antiquities of the City of Athens where possible joins with known and already published works are explored. This is followed by grouping and arranging the members on stone piles according to category (for example, Doric, Ionic or Corinthian column capitals, column bases, perirhanteria, sarcophagi, etc.). The remaining members are gathered in newly formed stone piles. The catalogues, with photographic and graphic documentation are then handed over to the YSMA Archive (Documentation Office) where their entry in the Archives is completed.
