GitHub Copilot - Your Programming Pal
GitHub and OpenAI have a new tool described as "your AI pair programmer". It's not quite that good, but it is a view into the future of programming and an important step in the right direction.
We tend to concentrate on languages and frameworks, but tools are more important. Yes, there are programmers who use just a text editor to create their thing, but there are people who reject all modern conveniences too - we mostly classify them as cranks or, at best, eccentrics. Why we look up to these back to basics, hair shirt-wearing nuts is another question, but tools have just taken another step away from the raw text editor and another step towards making us all less essential.
GitHub Copilot is an AI-based system that will take notice of what you are coding and make suggestions for what it is you are about to type. You can think of it as IntelliSense on steroids, but users are claiming that it is a big step up. The idea is all based on the sort of AI that lead to the GP-3 language system. Take a very big network and train it on a huge corpus of natural language data and it will extract the regularities. What is surprising is that that there is so much regularity in natural language that a "dumb" system like GP-3 can join in conversations and seem intelligent, simply by selecting what comes next.
If capturing the regularities in natural language can be done then surely this should work for programming languages too. The answer is it seems to be the case, but programming languages are far more restricted and while a natural language utterance might be OK with a slight, flaw, a programming snippit is useless if just one character is wrong.
Copilot is based on OpenAI's Codex which was trained on a large amount of publicly available code. Basically the system is trained so that it learns to complete chunks of code. You take some code, delete some and then train the AI to correctly fill in the missing part. As long as you set the model up properly, it doesn't just remember the example it learns the generalizations of the examples and so is capable of extrapolation to things that it has never seen - well that's the theory. If you have a large enough dataset and a large enough network it does seem to work, but how well is another question.
At the moment it can only be used with VS Code, but that seems reasonable, and while it supports many languages the ones specifically mentioned are Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Ruby and Go. At the moment the trial is open to everyone and it is assumed that one day soon there will be a paid-for service.
If you are worried about copyright issues using code generated by an AI, the good news is that most of the time CoPilot generates code its never seen before, i.e. not in the training set. Even if it was, the idea that such short snippets of code would be enforcably copyrighted seems a bit unlikely.
It is clear from the quotes that some people at least think it is good:
I'm impressed by how GitHub Copilot seems to know exactly what I want to type next. GitHub Copilot is particularly helpful when working on React components, where it makes eerily accurate predictions. GitHub Copilot has become an indispensable part of my programmer toolbelt.

Trying to code in an unfamiliar language by googling everything is like navigating a foreign country with just a phrase book. Using GitHub Copilot is like hiring an interpreter.
Harri Edwards // OpenAI
Yes I get that. It is also when simple Intellisense is most useful. What I would say is that Copilot is nothing like having a programming copilot as in pair programming. If you have ever done any pain programming you will know that the interaction goes much deeper than suggesting blocks of code - down to "is this the best way to do this?" The relationship should be much more high-level than what Copilot is offering.
So is this the death knell for programming and programmers? Probably not.
What it does reveal is how much redundancy there is in code. We probably need to work with bigger blocks of implementation. In the same way that Python is often thought to be popular because it has batteries included, i.e. lots of high-level library routines, maybe we need languages that do the same. Get database stuff, sort it on name, present it to the user via a form with 10 item lines...
Language development has more or less ground to a halt. We don't seem to have any new radical ideas on the scale of object- oriented code or functional programming - not that these are much of a solution in the grand scheme, just better. So if we can't make progress on languages, perhaps devising tools such as Copilot is the way to go.

The purpose of KCAC is to serve as a conduit between the Kenston Board of Education and the Kenston Community by communicating, researching and providing education on strategic matters.
Kenston Citizens Advisory Council recently presented their finding from the 2018 Community Survey at the February 2019 Board of Education. We appreciate the over 700 members of the community who participated in the survey and provided valuable feedback as we work towards common goals and purpose. The district is working to address areas for improvement and capitalize on our success.
The Kenston Local School District believes that to sustain and exceed its exemplary status, there must be a clear sense of goals in which all stakeholders have an investment. In order to transform ideals into reality, the following excerpt from the Vision Statement regarding community partnerships is intended to provide the standards that the Kenston Local School District shall strive to achieve and continuously seek to improve.
An exemplary school district is committed to establishing and maintaining effective partnerships with its community – parents, residents, businesses, government agencies and other educational systems. It continuously develops the community's allegiance, ownership and support.
At the November 20, 2006 meeting of the Kenston Board of Education, Jerry Moreno moved and Joan Hamilton seconded a motion to create the Kenston Citizens Advisory Committee (KCAC).
All members of the board voted yes: Joan Hamilton, Ralph Hastings, Jerry Moreno, Anne Randall and Bill Timmons.
One of the primary responsibilities of the Kenston Board of Education (KBOE) is to maintain the fiscal integrity of the school district while meeting the academic needs of the district. In light of Kenston's Vision Statement regarding Community Partnerships, the KBOE created the Kenston Citizens Advisory Committee (KCAC) whose overall purpose is to provide input to the Kenston Board of Education on matters financial and otherwise, as seen from the Kenston community's perspective.
Develop processes and procedures for obtaining community input on district matters. Serve as a working committee to study needed programs and services of the district. Interpret the concerns of the public about Kenston to KBOE and interpret to the public the goals and needs of the system. With regard to financial topics, develop and submit suggestions to the Board to assist the communications and understanding of the district's financial condition to and by the community and state legislators.
Study school matters as determined appropriate by KCAC and KBOE.
Members of the Kenston Citizens Advisory Committee are selected by the Kenston Board of Education through an application process, KCAC consists of eleven (11) members: two (2) members of the Board of Education and nine (9)** members who are residents of the Kenston community.
The length of term for community members is three calendar years with possible reappointment for a maximum of two consecutive terms. Initially, the terms of the community members are: three members for one year, three members for two years and three members for three years, so to create staggered terms thereafter. **All terms after the initial term will be deemed to be three-year terms.
The Kenston Citizens Advisory Committee will meet at least four times a year with at least one meeting quarterly. A quorum is a majority of the KCAC membership. When a quorum exists, a majority of those present and voting may act. All members have equal voting rights. All meetings are to be conducted according to general parliamentary procedure as outlined in Robert's Rules of Order.
The Kenston Citizens Advisory Committee will choose a Chair, Vice Chair and Secretary annually from its community members. The Chair may not serve in that capacity for more than three years.
The Chair presides at all KCAC meetings and serves as the official spokesperson for the committee.
The Vice Chair carries out the duties of the Chair whenever the Chair is unable to do so.
The Secretary records all proceedings of the committee and prepares official correspondence as necessary.
Ad hoc committees for special purposes may be appointed by KCAC as needed. Members of the ad hoc committee are chosen by KCAC.
The purpose and responsibilities of KCAC are to be reviewed annually by KBOE and KCAC for the purpose of improving the functioning and effectiveness of the committee.

Four in five hospitals across England are not testing patients for Lynch syndrome – a genetic condition that significantly increases risk.
Testing can help guide the treatment options but crucially determines whether family members stand a greater chance of succumbing to a disease that kills 16,000 in the UK every year.
Lynch syndrome is an inherited condition passed down through families with children of those with it standing a 50/50 chance of developing bowel cancer.
It has no symptoms but Lynch syndrome can be confirmed through a simple blood test, recommended by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence [NICE], England's drug rationing body.
But Bowel Cancer UK and Beating Bowel Cancer found that 83 per cent of hospital trusts are not following official guidelines to test all bowel cancer patients at the time of their diagnosis for Lynch syndrome.
Chief executive Deborah Alsina said: "Until there is clear local and national leadership and a firm commitment to improve the services for people at high risk of developing bowel cancer, the estimated 175,000 people who carry this inherited faulty gene will continue to fall through the gaps.
The worrying picture emerged after the charity received replies from English hospital trusts with nine in 10 not providing the test citing financial reasons as the reason.
Two-thirds claimed "staff resources" were a common obstacle while others said they were not aware of NICE guidelines.
One hospital trust said: "The main barriers have been, and remain, financial and staff resources.
"NICE produce guidance but the Government do not provide the funding for the implementation of the guidance.
Only five per cent of those with Lynch syndrome have been identified meaning over 166,000 people in the UK do not know they are at a high risk of a range of cancers.
Bowel cancer is one of the most common cancers in the UK for over 60's. Here are the signs and symptoms to look out for.
Testing costs around £200 per patient whereas treatment for bowel cancer is around £25,000.
Matthew Wright, presenter of TV's The Wright Stuff, said: "My father died from bowel cancer at just 54 – a year older than my age right now – and my grandfather was diagnosed with the disease in his twenties but remarkably he had lived until he was 68.
"At the time of my father's death, my family and I were told about Lynch syndrome and the 50 per cent chance that me and my sister could have it too.
"Although I was convinced I had it, it was only until five years after my father's death that I found out I didn't.
The screening scandal comes as latest figures show just over 50 per cent of those eligible for free bowel cancer screening in England take up the offer of a test.
A thin, flexible tube fitted with a camera is used to look inside the bowel to look for and remove small growths called polyps, which could eventually turn into cancer, during a procedure called flexible sigmoidoscopy.
The test can also detect cancer that has already started to develop, before symptoms are noticed and when it's easier to treat. Uptake in England is 59 per cent while in Scotland it is 56 per cent.
Gail Curry, head of health promotion at Bowel Cancer UK and Beating Bowel Cancer, said: "It's concerning just over half of people who are sent the free bowel cancer screening test actually complete it.
"A lack of awareness of the importance of the test, thinking it doesn't apply to them and being put off by the nature of it contribute to this.
"Bowel cancer is the UK's second biggest cancer killer but it shouldn't be. It's treatable and curable, especially if diagnosed early.
Professor Anne Mackie, director of programmes for the UK National Screening Committee, said: "The UK's independent screening committee is currently consulting on some possible changes to the current bowel cancer screening programme.

Early Members Tell Their Stories / News
Coming Closer to Our True Mother
Moon Myungho · June 19, 2018
By Michael Balcomb
A week after the events in Vienna that brought European and Middle Eastern members together in an unprecedented outreach campaign, we interviewed Europe and Middle East regional group chairman Dr. Michael Balcomb in Korea. One part of his interview appeared in a recent issue of the online True Peace magazine. The part of the interview that follows here is drawn from Dr. Balcomb's testimony of his experiences with True Mother, both in the context of the Vienna events and in light of various personal meetings and observations.
About holding events with True Mother
Two years ago, our American Church family held the fortieth anniversary of the Yankee Stadium rally at Belvedere. It was outdoors, and just as at Yankee Stadium [in 1976], it rained. But it didn't rain until the very second Mother finished her speech. Several thousand members gathered that day, and we were tremendously excited to have True Parents back at Belvedere, just like in the old days, and to have Mother speaking on this auspicious anniversary.
We had made it into a real festival: we had many different types of food, and displays about all kinds of projects. We opened the Belvedere House to the public, and welcomed many of our neighbors and friends onto the estate.
After that success, we realized that we needed to make a bigger and better offering, and following the lead of Korea, Japan and Thailand, we were able to fill Madison Square Garden in New York. It was the first time in many years to have such a large gathering.
Immediately following the great success of the "Peace Starts with Me" rally in Madison Square Garden last July, True Mother assigned our couple to Europe and the Middle East. From the very beginning, she was interested in holding a similar "rally of hope" in Europe as well and it was our goal to make it happen as soon as possible.
In the early stages of planning, one of the questions Mother asked us, through the international headquarters, was, "You are aiming to bring ten thousand people, but if you do, are they all going to be members?" I replied, "No, Mother. At most, half will be members, because that's all we have. So the other half will have to be people we witness to, or friends or relatives." That was what True Mother wanted to hear. She wanted to hear that we would attempt to find new people. We felt a great deal of support from True Mother for the Vienna event from the very beginning, and I think that's what made our victory possible.
Making a personal connection with True Mother
My own relationship with True Mother has developed and deepened over the last five years since she assigned me as church president in the US. Before that, we always saw Father and Mother together, and usually it was Father who did most of the talking.
Until quite recently, I didn't see True Mother all that often. In the beginning, I'm afraid that I allowed this to be kind of an obstacle. I was very passive about the situation and didn't make enough effort to communicate. I thought to myself, "Well, if I go to a meeting, and Mother calls me to give a report—and she often would—that's when I'll share, but otherwise I will keep quiet." But gradually I learned from the North American regional group chair Dr. Ki-hoon Kim that it is much better to be constantly sharing with Mother. He would always update her with good news, successes small and large, news of difficulties overcome by our blessed families and more. I came to realize how much Mother really cares about members' lives. She is always very interested to hear how God is working.
When we came to Europe, we felt, it was a priority to encourage members to realize that they have the freedom to interact with True Mother through sending reports and testimonies. The International Headquarters has been helpful with this, because people like Mr. Hyunook Seo and others have made sure that reports are translated (perhaps sometimes shortened) and presented to True Mother on a regular basis.
We are always encouraging members, starting with the regional presidents, the church leaders and all brothers and sisters, to feel free to write a short message to True Mother to tell her what's going on in their lives. They share if something good has happened—or if they had a realization from something True Mother said in a speech that touched their hearts. We tell everyone: "Don't keep it to yourself; share it!" In the beginning, of course people were a little shy and reluctant, but as we got into the habit, it has become second nature.
My experience with Mother has been that whenever I make effort to communicate with her and share with her regularly I feel closer and spiritually connected, even if she never says a word. I often receive intuition from God. In those meetings I have had with Mother where she has given some direct personal guidance or shared about her own life, I have always made a point to share that content with others in Sunday services and sermons.
Mother's candid sharing about her course in life
There is one particular incident I remember, many years ago now. True Mother invited a few of us for tea at Cheon Jeong Gung. There, she started talking about her childhood and her youth, particularly about the circumstances leading up to her being matched and engaged to Father. I recall her saying, that this was really no simple thing. First of all, many spiritualists had told her "You are going to be married to someone more than twenty years older than you." And then some of them went on to tell her: "And that person could either be a great saint or a great criminal; there is really no way to know which!" That is not exactly what anyone wants to hear as a young girl!
I remember Mother saying something like, "I decided myself that if this was to be my destiny I would embrace it, and I make sure that our couple would take the course of sainthood; that no matter who God matched me to, I would not just be passive and take things as they came, but I would take personal responsibility."
I have shared that story several times, and I was getting a little worried that I might have ended up embellishing it. But then at the youth celebration the day after the "Peace Starts with Me" Rally of Hope in Vienna, Mother spoke to 800 to 900 young people and started out by asking them about this very point.
"How many of you here are 17 years old?" she asked, "And how would you feel if you were told you were going to marry someone 23 years older than you?" There was a sudden silence in the room! For young people who are still single, to contemplate such a thing is of course very difficult. I think that encounter helped everyone to see Mother as she was when she was a young woman—like Joan of Arc— bravely accepting a course when only God knows how it will work out.
Father is not here now to share his own experience of this, but we do have the new volumes of Mother's speeches and True Father's words about Mother, in which Father's love and admiration for Mother, and for the course she walked, shine through.
It is very refreshing that Mother is so direct and candid about the real challenge of taking on such a responsibility. When True Mother looks at the second generation today, she sees herself as she was 60 years ago. She wants these wonderful young people to make the kind of commitment to God that she herself made.
Mother's concern and advice
After Mother arrived in Vienna, we had breakfast with her each morning. This was an opportunity to report to Mother about what had happened the day before. In response, True Mother felt free—just as Father always did—to make suggestions and give directions. Actually, I feel that her suggestions are always directions, but she expresses them in such a loving way, so that you feel, "I would really like to do that because Mother has suggested it!"
Mother was particularly interested and concerned with the safe arrival of the members who came by bus from far-away locations such as Moscow, Minsk and Tirana. The group from Moscow travelled the furthest, and bus breakdowns and border difficulties turned it into a 60-hour marathon. True Mother said that their faith and commitment moved her deeply.
One morning, Mother suggested that we should follow up, not only with the people who had come to the Vienna event but also with the people who did not come, those who had said they would come but then something happened to prevent them. Mother said, "Don't give up on them. You can go to see these people and share with them what I said; show them pictures of people having a great time. You never know. Those people may even be more responsive. They wanted to come but then they didn't. What you mustn't do is just move on. The seeds have been planted but they need to be watered; they need to be cared for."
Another piece of advice Mother gives is that you have to dream big. "I have a big dream for Europe," she said. "Ten thousand came yesterday, but what if those ten thousand brought another ten thousand?" Indeed, True Mother is very confident that we really are on the verge of some dramatic breakthrough. The time is right and if we plant the seeds now, a big harvest is coming. Our European family is working hard to believe that completely.
I said to Mother at breakfast one morning that I thought her coming to Vienna had moved the providence forward by ten or twenty years. It allowed us, for example, to start the IAPD, to start YSP, to have a youth assembly with a thousand young people—each of which, if we had done them sequentially, and separately might have taken a year to prepare. With the momentum of True Mother's visit, we could do them all in two days. There was a tremendous synergy!
A special welcome for True Mother
True Mother always says, "Seeing once is better than hearing a thousand times." Our results speak for themselves. Not only was the Vienna StadtHalle full, but people clearly had a great time. When True Mother gave her speech, everyone listened very attentively and many asked for the transcript afterwards.
I was particularly moved by Dr. Werner Fasslabend, the former Austria defense minister. He gave probably the nicest introduction of True Mother I have seen from any public figure. Sometimes VIPs give their speech and then leave the stage, which is awkward, because then Mother is coming onto the stage alone. In contrast, Dr. Fasslabend stayed right there at the podium, warmly welcomed Mother and shook her hand, thanked her for bringing a message from God, and wished her good luck. Dr. Fasslabend's heart had been moved by Mother: She had taken a photo with him and his wife Martina just before the event began.
We also had a nice letter of support and encouragement from a member of the Habsburg family, once the ruling family in Austria. Even though we couldn't match Senegal in terms of having the head of state present at the program, nevertheless True Mother received a very good welcome representing all the people of Austria.
Mother's way of challenging people
Mother gave a great speech. She was very clear about where Christianity has fallen short, but she did it in a way that made the Christians and all of the audience feel "Well, we should do something about that." Over breakfast one morning I shared with True Mother about the choir of several hundred devout Christians who had come to sing for her. She gave them an invitation and opportunity to do something new, not to repeat the mistakes of the past. This is Mother's gift from God, to let people feel they still have a chance to do something valuable. The way she does it is loving and firm, not judgmental or confrontational. It feels like being tapped on the shoulder by your Mum because you got a bad grade at school, and being told "You can do a little better, can't you?"
True Mother does not shy away from her responsibility
Mother is a true student of God. I think people don't recognize this enough, which is why sometimes there is controversy about some of her statements. To give an example, Mother is on record as saying something like "Father didn't educate me; I had to learn for myself."
I think I know what she means. Father came first and he fulfilled his responsibility. He was the one who discovered the Divine Principle; who went to prison and was tortured. He comforted God, the Heavenly Parent in a way that no one has ever been able to do before. Yet he always knew that he could not do it alone, as a single man. He needed to meet the woman with whom, together, he could become True Father and True Parent.
In this course, it wasn't just about True Father. How could it be? True Mother also had her own responsibility. There were things Father could say, but there were also many things he couldn't say directly, and that she had to find out for herself. That is entirely natural. Everyone has responsibility.
What I learned from Mother is that you have to actively seek out your responsibility. You just can't sit back, and think, "Maybe the responsibility will pass by on the other side of the street." If you have made a commitment to God, you have to cross that street and meet your fate and your destiny. And what I see Mother doing, particularly in the last five years, is crossing the street to confront her destiny, to tackle the issues our movement faces with confidence that we are going to win.
Mother gives us confidence to succeed
We are not here just to make up numbers or go through the motions, we are here to win. I have an expression: "We are God's winning team." My wife Fumiko likes it a lot. And I really think it is true. We have to keep in mind that the Messiah comes as the True Parents to bring victory for God at the end of history. Mother is now carrying that task. I feel Father's presence very strongly within her. If we are not convinced that we can gain victory, what are we doing? But if we are convinced, I think God is going to bring us across the finish line. That is the feeling I have tried to give brothers and sisters in Europe: we are going to win!

In a previous post, I complained about Pixar not updating the RenderMan interface specification1. Since then, my wishes have been more than fullfilled because the complete documentation for Pixar products (including past versions) is now online. Just check http://renderman.pixar.com/view/resources. Registration in the forums is required but is free.
Skimming through it, I can measure how far behind is XRT in terms of features. This new release (available in the Downloads section) is an attempt to somewhat fill the gap.
At first, my intent was to simply add a Python binding for the RenderMan interface provided by XRT. Using the ribclients project from Nicholas Yue, I thought it could be a quick development. Alas, I stumbled rapidly on limits and bugs of my current implementation. So, it turned out to be a complete rewrite of everything related to RenderMan in XRT.
I have switched from a bison/flex based implementation to a hand tuned lexer/parser. No only this is more flexible and allows for better error checking but loading files is now 30% faster.
The previous implementation features only an interface to XRT. The new one supports also saving to output to ascii files or strings. Binary output is in the works.
Pixar's Python binding for RenderMan ("PRMan for Python") documentation is rather sketchy. Nevertheless, that was enough to understand that I needed to perform extensive modifications to the original "ribclients" code. I have mostly based my tests on a handful of example files gathered on the Internet. My main sources have been Jon Macey's courseware and Yuichirou Yokomakura blog2.
In most cases, writing a Python binding is just a matter of translating arguments from Python to the target API. There are even tools that automate this kind of tasks, SWIG being probably the most widely known. PRMan for Python follows this pattern except for Procedurals which request procedural callbacks written in Python. My tests are OK but I have not tried enough examples to be completely confident on my implementation.
There is now a progress bar in the console so that you know if your render is doing well (or not …).
CSG operations and transformation stack management are much more robust.
There is a improved sampler for even better image quality (as explained here).
RenderMan inline archives and hierarchical subdivision meshes (rendered as simple subdivision meshes) are now supported.
1. OK, with a bit of googling, you could find versions of RenderMan Pro Server documentation online but they were always outdated.
2. Look Ma, I'm famous !! I don't understand Japanese and automatic translators do a very poor job with this language, so I am unsure of what this guy is doing. Apparently, he tests various renderers including … XRT. He should really give a try to this version!

Demonetisation, decline in govt ads impact UFO Q2 numbers
01 Dec, 2017 - 09:30 AM IST | By indiantelevision.com Team
BENGALURU: Indian digital cinema distribution network and in-cinema advertising platform UFO Moviez Ltd (UFO) reported a 12.8 percent year-on-year (y-o-y) decline in consolidated operating revenue for the quarter ended 30 September 2017 (Q2 FY 2017-18) as compared with the corresponding year ago quarter. The company's consolidated operating revenue was Rs 1,388.8 million for the quarter as against Rs 1,591.8 million for Q2 FY 2016-17. Advertisement revenue stood at Rs 372 million (Rs 517 million in Q2 FY 2016-17). Average advertisement minutes sold per show per screen stood at 3.52 minutes during Q2 FY 2017-18 (5.15 minutes in Q2 FY 2016-17).
The company's consolidated net profit after tax declined by 47.8 percent y-o-y during the quarter under review to Rs 102 million from Rs 195.3 million. Consolidated operating profit excluding other income (EBIDTA) for Q2 FY 2017-18 fell by 31.8 percent y-o-y to Rs 374.7 million (26.1 percent margin) from Rs 549.7 million (34.5 percent margin).
"The last twelve months have been extremely challenging for the entire industry on account of one-off events such as demonetisation and implementation of GST, especially for the media sector, which was most severely impacted," said UFO's founder and managing director Sanjay Gaikwad. "Q2 FY 2017-18 was one of our toughest quarters. Advertisement revenue declined sharply on a high base of last year combined with slowdown in government advertisement spends. Nevertheless, we continue to remain extremely positive about the long-term growth prospects of the advertising business. We are hopeful that demand will pick up in a few months. The temporary slowdown has failed to deter us and we remain focused on achieving our long-term strategic goals by entering into a scheme of arrangement and amalgamation with Qube Cinema Technologies Pvt Ltd. We believe that this consolidation will further strengthen our position to capitalise on growth opportunities as the economy revives and gains steam."
Total expenses in Q2 FY 2017-18 reduced by 2.7 percent y-o-y to Rs 1,014.1 million from Rs 1,042.1 million. Ad revenue share (expense) increased by 9.8 percent y-o-y to Rs 155.5 million from Rs 141.6 million. Visual print fees sharing expense decreased by 24.8 percent y-o-y to Rs 153.2 million from Rs 203.6 million. Other expenses increased by 0.9 percent y-o-y to Rs 212 million from Rs 201.2 million.
The company's expense towards purchase of digital cinema equipment and lamps in the current quarter reduced by 1.8 percent y-o-y to Rs 159.5 million as compared with Rs 162.4 million. Employees' benefits expense during the quarter under review dipped by 2.6 percent y-o-y to Rs 194.7 million from Rs 199.9 million. Other operating direct costs rose by 8.7 percent y-o-y during the quarter under review to Rs 140.4 million from Rs 129.2 million.

Private investigators and private detectives constantly need to think about their distance, this means that in conducting their surveillance of a person or group of persons the private investigators or private detectives need to take care in order not to be detected by the really individuals he or she is surveying. Private investigators and private detectives need to often utilise distinct covers in order not to compromise his or her position even though conducting surveillance, which could ultimately compromise his or her investigation.
The life of a private investigator and private detective is usually on the line and is often at risk when conducting surveillance since when discovered the individuals that he or she is following could harm him or her. Even so, such risk is essential in order to gather details and information that would prove to be beneficial in solving the case that is why it's imperative that the private investigator or private detective need to be equipped with all the latest in surveillance technology.
One of the so-called cutting edge technologies in the field of surveillance and investigation will be the hybrid of binoculars which are incorporated with superior optics with as much as eight times magnification. But it's greatest feature is that it really is combined or integrated with a built-in digital camera which also comes with an LCD screen that users like private investigators and private detectives can flip-up to evaluation previously captured images. The built-in digital camera has a five-mega pixel resolution, which would thus give clear images and even records videos of as much as sixty seconds. The Binocular Digital Camera hybrid would enable private investigators and private detectives to conduct surveillance from far away and would still be able to gather data by way of taking videos and photos. The hybrid of a digital camera with binoculars indeed is regarded as as the private investigators' best friend.

Fall is coming! In North America, whether we like it or not, summer is drawing to an end. For some, that's a sad annual occurrence, but those of us who crave cozy sweaters and the crunch of leaves under our feet are psyched when the foliage starts to turn. If you're the sort who gets inspired by nature's technicolor display of autumn leaves, you'll want to check out this awesome tool that predicts the changing of leaves across the continental United States.
Using data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association (NOAA), SmokyMountains.com put together the fall foliage map we've all been waiting for. With an interactive slider at the bottom, users can select dates from the end of August through mid-November to see a representative of how the leaves will be changing in different parts of the country. This tool could be a great way to plan a weekend getaway for scenic autumn hikes, or simply to start thinking about when to take a Sunday drive through your favorite tree-lined neighborhood.
The map is just a forecast, so you'll have to get out and see what kind of oranges, reds, and yellows Mother Nature really has to offer in your area.

"Avec Les Bons Voeux" translates from French as "With Best Wishes", which seems fitting since this is the holiday beer from Brasserie Dupont, the makers of Saison Dupont which is widely considered to be a classic of the saison style. Holiday beers are some of my favorites, something about the seasonal, limited nature of them, and the happy memories they induce. A few friend's whose beer opinions I respect mentioned that this was their favorite holiday seasonal so I was especially anxious to try it.
The label copy on Avec Les Bons Voeux from Brasserie Dupont reads: "Les Bons Voeux" means best wishes, which is what Brasserie Dupont sends with this very special saison ale brewed only for the holidays. Redolently aromatic, rich and velvety, this is an ale to tast the season and welcome in the New Year!
Avec Les Bons Voeux comes in at 9.5% ABV, higher than most typical saisons and came in a 750ml corked bottle which I purchased for about $12 if I remember correctly.
It pours a hazy dark gold color with a big fluffy white head. According to Dupont's website Avec Les Bons Voeux is bottle conditioned, so there was quite a bit of sediment in the bottle. I would recommend letting the beer settle and pouring carefully to avoid pouring the sediment in the glass.
The smell was fruity and sweet, hefeweizen like banana and bubblegum dominated. The taste was more dry and less sweet than I expected with sweet bubblegum flavors up front and a bitter and spicy finish. The alcohol was apparent but not overpowering. The mouthfeel was interesting, it was thick, and I hadn't read the label before I drank it, but velvety describes it perfectly. It isn't a heavy beer but is much heavier than other saisons.
Avec Les Bons Vouex is very different than the typical "holiday" beer, but exactly what you would expect a holiday saison to taste like. At 9.5% ABV and because it is bottle conditioned I would expect this beer to hold up well for at least a few years in the cellar. That's not to say that it isn't excellent now. I'll be drinking a few more bottles fresh and tucking some away for a while as well.

Q: gspread find in_column list index out of range I am trying to find an item inside a worksheet using gspread but only for a specific column. For some reason, when I do
ws.find(item, in_column = 6)

it givens an
IndexError: list index out of range

but when I do it with 2, it works fine. I tested it, and for any column 5 and over, it does not work. Anyone know why this is? I can send the full error message and code if needed.

A: When I tested all sheets in your sample Spreadsheet using ws.find(item, in_column = 6), I confirmed that an error occurred on the 1st sheet ("Info" sheet). Also, I confirmed that in your 1st sheet of "Info", the merged cells are existing. In this case, it seems that such an error occurs.
If you are not required to use ws.find(item, in_column = 6) in the 1st sheet, as a simple modification, how about the following modification?
Modified script 1:
cell = None
wslist = hoards.worksheets()
for ws in wslist:
    if ws.title != "Info":
        cell = ws.find(knife, in_column=6)
        if (cell != None):
            worksheet = ws
            print("found cell")
            break

*

*This script excludes the sheet using the sheet name "Info".

Modified script 2:
cell = None
wslist = hoards.worksheets()
for i, ws in enumerate(wslist):
    if i > 0:
        cell = ws.find(knife, in_column=6)
        if (cell != None):
            worksheet = ws
            print("found cell")
            break

*

*This script excludes the sheet using the sheet index.

Note:

*This modified script can be used for your sample Spreadsheet. If your Spreadsheet is changed, this script might not be able to be used. Please be careful about this.

A Swiss-backed project to recycle e-waste in South Africa will be shared with other countries as a model for generating income while safely disposing of old electronics.
An initial test in Cape Town treated 58 tonnes of electronic equipment, created 19 jobs and made a profit of $14,000 (SFr16,480) over ten months in 2008, according to published results.
The joint backers, the Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Testing and Research (Empa), Hewlett-Packard and the Geneva-based non-governmental organisation Global Digital Solidarity Fund, are heralding it as a success story that is on its way to become fully sustainable.
"What we wanted to achieve with this pilot project was to really build an example of recycling in developing countries, especially in the context of Africa, of where it can start and how it can build up, be socially responsible and create jobs, in a sustainable way," Mathias Schluep, the project manager, told swissinfo.
"The good outcome of this is that we really can use this and it is already replicated in Durban. We also want to use this in other African countries, and say this is an example, and how it can be done. This knowledge is needed in many countries."
In addition to income from the safe disposal and recycling of old and unwanted items such as televisions and computers, money was also generated through the repair and resale of some items.
Cape Town was chosen for the project in part because it is Hewlett-Packard's biggest market in Africa and therefore generates the most waste.
Empa had also previously developed local knowledge of the recycling infrastructure in the city and knowledge of how much e-waste was being generated.
"The difficulty is that South Africa does not really have a sustainable recycling system in place, like we have in European countries. We had a perfect set-up in South Africa to develop such a pilot project," said Schluep.
Elsewhere in the continent, countries are having to deal with illegal imports of e-waste, often originating from the United States and Europe.
In Kenya, for example, there are no viable disposal systems and regulations for treating the 3,000 tonnes of computers, printers and monitors accumulated in the country in 2007.
Greenpeace states that developed countries routinely export e-waste to developing ones, often in violation of the international law. The pressure group says inspections of 18 European seaports in 2005 found as much as 47 per cent of waste destined for export, including e-waste, was illegal.
In the US, it is estimated that 50 to 80 per cent of the waste collected for recycling was being exported in this way.
The organisation says that although recycling can be a good way to reuse the raw materials in a product, the hazardous chemicals in e-waste mean that electronics can harm workers in the recycling yards, as well as their neighbouring communities and environment.
In developed countries, electronics recycling takes place in purpose-built recycling plants under controlled conditions, but in developing countries there are no such controls and recycling is done by hand in scrap yards, often by children.
In the last week, the Zurich-based NZZ newspaper reported a cargo container with unchecked computer waste originating from Switzerland had been located in Antwerp, destined for Africa.
"It is one of the fastest growing waste streams, apart from general household waste," noted Schluep.
He argues that it is a particularly attractive form of waste as it can generate income and create jobs, but is tricky as it can be hazardous.
"So how can we make a sustainable income, especially in developing countries, out of this waste stream? You have to manage it, you need standards, you need the best available technologies," he pointed out.
"Our pilot [project] shows that the problem can be solved," Schluep added. "Through the mediation of knowledge and skills, we have the environmental and health problems under control. And even better, creative minds in the private sector were able to create other work from it."
The second stage of the project aims to train private local businesses that have become involved in e-waste disposal, work in partnership with them and introduce programmes in other countries. Experience gained from the project will also be included in a Unesco guide to computer recycling.
The project is being carried out by the Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Testing and Research (Empa), Seco's strategic partner in the field of cleaner technology cooperation.
Empa is the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology's institution for multidisciplinary research into sustainable materials and systems engineering. One of its core activities is research on environmental aspects of technology.
For a number of year Empa's Technology and Society department has been working on behalf of Seco to help developing countries with resource protection and sustainable technologies, as part of the "Knowledge Partnerships in e-scrap recycling" programme. The programme runs in India, South Africa, China and Latin America.
The department also heads the recycling working group within the Solving the E-waste Problem (StEP) worldwide initiative, under the aegis of the United Nations University and other UN organisations.
E-waste is the term used to describe old, end-of-life or discarded appliances using electricity. It covers all types of waste containing electrically powered components, such as computers, consumer electronics and fridges, which have been disposed of by their original users.
Electronic devices are a mixture of several hundred materials. Many of these contain toxic heavy metals such as lead, mercury and hazardous chemicals. Computers, cooling appliances and mobile phones, for example, contain precious metals, flame retarded plastics and many other substances.
Valuable substances such as copper and platinum turn recycling of e-waste into a lucrative business opportunity.
According to experts, the elimination of one cubic metre of toxic waste costs between $400 and $680 in Europe, 15 times what it costs in Africa or Asia.
UNEP estimates that up to 50 million tonnes of waste from discarded electronic goods is generated annually.
A 2005 study by the Basel Action Network concluded that up to 75% of scrap TVs and computers shipped to Nigeria for "re-use" ended up buried or burned.

In Kenya, for example, there are no viable disposal systems and regulations for treating the 3,000 tonnes of computers, printers and monitors accumulated in the country in 2007. Greenpeace states that developed countries routinely export e-waste to developing ones, often in violation of the international law. The pressure group says inspections of 18 European seaports in 2005 found as much as 47 per cent of waste destined for export, including e-waste, was illegal. In the US, it is estimated that 50 to 80 per cent of the waste collected for recycling was being exported in this way. The organisation says that although recycling can be a good way to reuse the raw materials in a product, the hazardous chemicals in e-waste mean that electronics can harm workers in the recycling yards, as well as their neighbouring communities and environment. In developed countries, electronics recycling takes place in purpose-built recycling plants under controlled conditions, but in developing countries there are no such controls and recycling is done by hand in scrap yards, often by children. In the last week, the Zurich-based NZZ newspaper reported a cargo container with unchecked computer waste originating from Switzerland had been located in Antwerp, destined for Africa. Attractive waste? "It is one of the fastest growing waste streams, apart from general household waste," noted Schluep. He argues that it is a particularly attractive form of waste as it can generate income and create jobs, but is tricky as it can be hazardous. "So how can we make a sustainable income, especially in developing countries, out of this waste stream? You have to manage it, you need standards, you need the best available technologies," he pointed out. "Our pilot [project] shows that the problem can be solved," Schluep added. "Through the mediation of knowledge and skills, we have the environmental and health problems under control. And even better, creative minds in the private sector were able to create other work from it." The second stage of the project aims to train private local businesses that have become involved in e-waste disposal, work in partnership with them and introduce programmes in other countries. Experience gained from the project will also be included in a Unesco guide to computer recycling. swissinfo, Jessica Dacey Partnership The project is being carried out by the Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Testing and Research (Empa), Seco's strategic partner in the field of cleaner technology cooperation. Empa is the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology's institution for multidisciplinary research into sustainable materials and systems engineering. One of its core activities is research on environmental aspects of technology. For a number of year Empa's Technology and Society department has been working on behalf of Seco to help developing countries with resource protection and sustainable technologies, as part of the "Knowledge Partnerships in e-scrap recycling" programme. The programme runs in India, South Africa, China and Latin America. The department also heads the recycling working group within the Solving the E-waste Problem (StEP) worldwide initiative, under the aegis of the United Nations University and other UN organisations. E-waste E-waste is the term used to describe old, end-of-life or discarded appliances using electricity. It covers all types of waste containing electrically powered components, such as computers, consumer electronics and fridges, which have been disposed of by their original users. Electronic devices are a mixture of several hundred materials. Many of these contain toxic heavy metals such as lead, mercury and hazardous chemicals. Computers, cooling appliances and mobile phones, for example, contain precious metals, flame retarded plastics and many other substances. Valuable substances such as copper and platinum turn recycling of e-waste into a lucrative business opportunity. According to experts, the elimination of one cubic metre of toxic waste costs between $400 and $680 in Europe, 15 times what it costs in Africa or Asia. UNEP estimates that up to 50 million tonnes of waste from discarded electronic goods is generated annually. A 2005 study by the Basel Action Network concluded that up to 75% of scrap TVs and computers shipped to Nigeria for "re-use" ended up buried or burned.

The Smart File System Synchronizer
==================================

Introduction
------------

**The Use Case**

Many a times we need to run code developed on Windows but we also need to
run/test the code on a Linux system. This may be required because:

- The code has to be cross platform for e.g. a Java/Python package which
  should support both Windows and Linux systems.

- The code is only meant to run on Linux systems but the team is more
  comfortable developing on a Windows system.

- Even if the development and test systems have same platform we may have
  to use a separate test system due to software/hardware constraints on the
  developemnt system.

In these cases we constantly need to **manually** copy even the smallest
change to a Linux system where the change will be tested. Things becomes
complicated when many small changes spanning many files need to be copied.
This is where smart_sync comes to the rescue.

**What smart_sync does**

It constantly watches a specified directory for any file system changes like
file/directory created/modified/moved/deleted and in response it will push the
changes to the target(usually a remote) directory. In summary smart_sync will
make sure that the remote directory is an exact mirror of your development
directory at all times. Currently smart_sync relies on the famous 'rsync' tool
to push changes.

Installation
------------
Currently smart_sync is only tested for Linux based platforms it requires
*Python3* to run. Support for other platforms and Python2 to be added soon.

Steps::

    $ pip3 install git+https://github.com/rsjethani/smart_sync

Usage Scenario
--------------
Let's assume you are working on a project called **myproject** on your local
machine and you test new changes in a VM say **test-vm**.

Step 1: start smart_sync on local-dev like::

    $ smart_sync path/to/project remote_user@test-vm:path/to/target

Step 2: Just keep making changes on local-dev and forget about manually
copying any modification/changes on test-vm.

**Excluding files/directories/patterns from copying to target**

For this you can use ``-e/--exclude`` option. This options takes a space
separated list of files or directories which you want to exclude from syncing
process.For example::

    $ smart_sync  path/to/project  remote_user@test-vm:path/to/target -e file 1 '*.pyc' dir1 ...

**Excluding by reading from a file**

You can also give a file as an argument ``-f/--exclude-from`` to smart_sync which
contains files/directories/patterns to ignore. For example::

    $ smart_sync  path/to/project  remote_user@test-vm:path/to/target -f path/to/project/.gitignore

Now smart_sync will not track changes on files etc. specified in .gitingnore file.

**Do not allow extra files on destination**

By default the destination may contain extra files other than what comes
from source. If you do not want this then use ``-d/--delete`` option.

Today is the first day of World Orphans' OKTOBERFAST. We are soliciting faithful Christ-followers to come alongside us for the whole month of October to fast and pray for the world's orphaned and vulnerable children.
The fast could take any form you wish – fewer TV shows or desserts, one less meal per day, no sodas for the month, or anything else that God places on your heart. We've heard back from die-hard folks that are doing a liquid diet for the whole month. Others are simply skipping their daily stop to Starbucks (one less liquid). But you don't need to inform us. This is a special time of commitment and intimacy between you and God…for the children.
The most important part, of course, is the prayer part. With hundreds of millions of orphans and street children, and almost 30,000 children under five dying each day of easily-preventable causes, it requires us being on our knees. Such huge numbers can only truly be addressed through the fervent prayers of the righteous. When man works, man works. When man prays, God works!
Over the next thirty-one days, I invite you to use this blog to help you determine how best to pray. Simply read the entries and lift up the children to a Father who loves them so much.
Some people are also using OKTOBERFAST to commit to fast and pray specifically against human trafficking. TRAFFIC JAM, a campaign run by Orphan Lifeline, is designed to help raise "Highways of Prayer (HOPE)" to combat the injustice of labor and sexual slavery around the world. Please visit Orphan Lifeline to learn more about prayer points and ideas – including small group activities, neighborhood parties and worship concerts ("traffic jams") – to help mobilize prayer against the evils of global human trafficking.
Planning on jamming for the kids, brother! Hold the sausages, stop the traffic!

The Online Meeting Place of Illawarra Lutheran Parish.
Now there were some Greeks among those who went up to worship at the Feast. They came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, with a request. "Sir," they said, "we would like to see Jesus."
Some Gentiles ("Greeks") travel to Jerusalem, probably because they believe in God. Their request "to see Jesus" is conveyed to him by Andrew and Philip, the two disciples with Greek names. Interestingly they were the first disciples who brought Jews to Jesus. Andrew brought his brother Peter (John 1:42) and Philip brought his friend Nathanael (John 1:45). It is important to keep in mind that the desire of these people to "see" Jesus doesn't mean that they wanted to become followers. They simply wanted to 'see' him.
As I thought about this a couple of questions came to mind.
Are our congregations here in the Illawarra places where people can come and "see" Jesus?
Do I, as the pastor, and the people who make up our church community have the skills to show Jesus to those people wishing to "see" him?
Note that in that second question I didn't ask about 'desire' or 'willingness', but 'skills'.
A recent article I read referred to the work of Roy Oswald and Martin Saarinen. In their paper for The Alban Institute entitled Why Some Churches Don't Grow, Oswald and Saarinen made these comments based on research among Lutheran congregations.
The Lutheran Church, like most mainline denominations, works under a broad unwritten assumption that the conversion to personal faith in Jesus Christ has already occurred in people's lives elsewhere and that church growth merely involves assimilating those "already converted" into the ongoing life of the congregation.
Lutheran clergy are trained as nurturers of the faith, rather than as catalysts in any process of spiritual transformation in the lives of individuals.
The words are hard and can be discouraging, but it is important that we hear them.If we are going to take up the challenges and opportunities that are before us then we must begin with some honest reflection. Put simply, what they are saying is that as Lutherans we are unskilled in outreach and evangelism. Our strength is in the nurturing process. This ability to nurture is great if we are dealing with people who are born into and growing up in the church, but it is of little help in bringing into the community of faith those who have been born and raised outside of that community. The positive in all this is that 'skills' can be learned if we are willing to take the time as a church to teach them and the people who make up our community of faith are willing to take the time to learn. It is true that in order to reach out to people and "engage them in a transformational process that leads to an active faith in Jesus Christ " we need to know more about their spiritual needs and develop the resources to meet those needs. It also requires us, as individuals and as the community of faith, to be more deliberate in equipping ourselves for our mission of reaching the people of the Illawarra region with the good news of God's grace in Jesus, and more deliberate in the actual work of reaching out with the good news of God's grace.
Of course all this leads to an important question...Are we willing?
I am currently serving as the Pastor for the Illawarra Lutheran Parish which has worshipping communities gathering in Wollongong, Oak Flats, and Nowra in New South Wales.
What sort of proof are you looking for???
Don't just do something...sit there!!!
I once was blind....but now I squint!
