Thank You Keanu Project
Scripts & Books
Empire (UK), October 27, 2005
Keanu Reeves has played many roles in his time - the messiah, Buddha, one half of a rock duo that brings about world peace - so he's clearly a man in touch with his spiritual side. That's why he's so perfectly cast as a guru orthodontist in this week's Thumbsucker, the little indie movie that could. We talk to the former Mr. Ted Theodore Logan Esq. about smoking, getting older and robbing banks.
What's Thumbsucker about?
Lou Pucci plays Justin, a teenager who still sucks his thumb and the film is all about how he tries to overcome it and the way it affects his family and friends. I play a transcendental dentist who offers him hypnosis to give him strength.
Do you have any horror dentist stories?
I had two of my wisdom teeth pulled out in Toronto when I was younger. And I'll never forget the sound of the pliers and the knee in my chest. It was nasty.
Did you suck your thumb as a kid?
I have not and have never been a thumb-sucker. I did everything else.
Were there any behavioural habits like thumb-sucking that you tried to let go when you were younger?
No. When I was a teenager, I always fantasized about robbing a bank. I mean, it just sounded like fun what with all the plotting and planning, the danger, the treasure.
What was it about the Thumbsucker script that made you want to play a dentist?
It was the humanity of the story. The writing was lovely and a lovely role. My character has several incarnations and I loved his search for meaning of life.
Your character smokes in this movie. Do you?
I smoke too much. In some scenes in Constantine, it was like, Watch Keanu turn green. I smoked so much. It was a lot, it was a lot. I should quit.
Are film sets generally bad for your health? What's the worst injury you've sustained?
I was filming The Replacements and I ran into someone I shouldn't have and I got a stinger. It's where your neck compresses and you lose feeling and the use of your arms.
And I had a general sense of pain. I had a two-level fusion: two vertebrae fused in my neck so there was a lot of concern. But I went and had a MRI scan and was fine. When it first happened I was really scared because I'd never had a stinger before. You lose feeling in your arms and your hands. That sensation in me was really intense for about 20 minutes and then the limb aspect of it went away in about two hours.
Did you end up in hospital?
Yeah. I had to go straight to the hospital. I took a handful of Advil and then when I got to the hospital they gave me the good stuff and sent me home with some more of the good stuff and ice and heat. I went back the next day.
What do you look for when you take a role?
I'm always looking to see a vision, to see what's interesting in the piece. Fifteen years ago I wouldn t have asked Francis Ford Coppola, So how do you rehearse? I wouldn t have done that. But sometimes now I find it interesting before I go into it to speak, to share thoughts and feelings. For example, with Mike Mills on Thumbsucker, I met with him and I went along with his process. It's a matter of getting to know each other.
This is a tiny, independent film compared with some of your previous big studio films like Constantine. What are the main differences?
The resources that come into making a movie don't really impact on the relationships inside, in terms of telling a story, for me. Sometimes resources just mean you get to work on a bigger set. Walking on the set for Constantine is a different day than walking on the set for Thumbsucker. But in terms of working on the role, or coming to work, no, it's not different. I guess the pressure is less.
Justin's mother is hung up on a soap star. When you were an aspiring actor, which star did you want to meet?
When I was about 15, my stepfather directed Kate Jackson, who played Sabrina in Charlie's Angels, in some movie called Thin Ice. I was a PA on that film so I got to meet her. I remember she was interested in the latest Star Wars movie that was coming out. I bought her a soda and we talked about the new movies.
Are you interested in old Hollywood at all?
The last book I read was a biography on Frank Capra. And I've also read a book on D.W. Griffith so once in a while there seems to be moments where I am interested about the old studios.
What's next? Is it true you've been cast in Stompanato, about the mobster boyfriend of screen legend Lana Turner?
Yeah, I'm meeting with Adrian Lyne and Catherine Zeta- Jones to do a reading of some of the scenes. Hopefully we can get that picture made.
You used to play bass in Dogstar. Is that still happening?
No, not any more. I don't play in a band anymore. I have no idea if I ll do it again but I know right now that I don't play in the band.
Are you too old for it? Mick Jagger is on the road and he's 63
The guy is a living legend though. That's what he does.
You're now in your 40s. Are you slowing down?
I'm making all the noises that a post-40 man makes. [laughs] I make that walk to the bathroom in the morning. I never used to lean against the wall. [Laughs] I am that guy.

Divyenndu-starrer 'Mere Desh Ki Dharti' announces release date on Kisan Diwas
'Mere Desh Ki Dharti' poster
Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], December 23 (ANI): The makers of the upcoming social drama 'Mere Desh Ki Dharti' have unveiled the film's poster and release date on the occasion of Kisan Diwas on Thursday.
The film, which stars Divyenndu of 'Mirzapur' fame in the lead role, is set for its theatrical release on February 11, 2022.
'Mere Desh Ki Dharti' addresses the rural-urban divide in the country. While farming is a major enterprise, it has taken a backseat as the youth is looking for opportunities in urban cities. The film paves the path of bringing the two worlds together.
Apart from Divyenndu, the film also stars Anupria Goenka and Anant Vidhaat in the lead roles.
'Mere Desh Ki Dharti' is directed by Faraz Haider and produced by Vaishali Sarwankar under the banner of Carnival Motion Pictures.
Talking about the film, Divyenndu said, "I am excited to finally announce our film 'Mere Desh Ki Dharti' and begin this journey with the audience especially, on a day like the National Farmers Day."
Director, Faraz Haider added, "'Mere Desh Ki Dharti' is an inspiring film which will not only entertain you but also take you closer to the roots of our country."
The movie's extended cast includes Inaamulhaq, Brijendra Kala, Rajesh Sharma, Atul Shrivastava and Farrukh Jafar. (ANI)

Q: How can I get rid of Safari 5's "awesome bar"?  Safari 5 came with a copycat of Firefox "awesome" bar, completing text as your type an url with history of previous title pages you've seen, and not just previous URLs.
How to get rid of this annoyance?

A: I haven't tried it and I don't know if it'll solve your problem, but Shaun Inman created a Safari extension called SMRT that disables its auto-complete behavior.

A: You could try the following :
default write com.apple.Safari DebugSafari4IncludeFancyURLCompletionList -bool NO
default write com.apple.Safari DebugSafari5IncludeFancyURLCompletionList -bool NO
# note the 5 instead of 4 in the second command.

I know the one with 4 exists, but I'm not sure for the one with 5.
At least, you could try these commands (each one or both), they won't hurt the system.

I really have to have a games night sometime soon. I'm thinking Cranium, rather than Scrabble (it's still in the shrink-wrap; apparently it's not as good a bait as I was led to believe... even the one that requested it hasn't shown up), since Scrabble maxes out at 4 people.
Socialisation is the greatest joy in my life (save possibly teaching/philosophy/design-theory). I should be spending at least a noticable fraction of my time doing it.

Rohyt Belani of PhishMe on the Not-So-Weak Link Tom Field (SecurityEditor) • February 15, 2017
Conventional wisdom has long held that humans, because of the mistakes they make, are the weakest links in the security chain. But that's not so, says Rohyt Belani, CEO and co-founder of PhishMe.
In fact, not only are humans not the weakest link, but when properly conditioned, they can be a very strong asset for security teams. "Gray matter versus hackers" is a powerful weapon in the cybersecurity arsenal, he explains.
In a video interview at RSA Conference 2017, Belani also discusses:
What's changing in phishing email schemes;
How PhishMe differentiates itself from other anti-phishing solution providers in a crowded market;
Ways to defend against phishing attacks.
Belani has more than 15 years of experience in the information security industry, with prior roles including co-founder and CEO of Intrepidus Group (acquired by NCC Group), managing director at Mandiant, principal consultant at Foundstone (acquired by McAfee), and researcher at the Software Engineering Institute. He has served as an adjunct professor at Carnegie Mellon University and is a contributing author for "Hack Notes - Network Security and Extrusion Detection: Security Monitoring for Internal Intrusions."

The 2015 season of MotoGP, the highest level of bike racing in the world, started back on the 29th March in Qatar and after five fascinating and somewhat surprising races we look set for one of the most exciting championships in recent memory. Our MotoGP outright winner preview gives you the best odds on whichever rider you fancy, as well as our own predictions and tips to help you choose, so whether you're new to the sport or a MotoGP veteran, everything you need to secure a tidy profit is right here.
When the season began Marc Marquez, the 2014 and 2013 champion, was the clear favourite for a hat-trick of world titles. The young Spaniard seemed an unstoppable force in the world of racing and many were predicting an era of total dominance. The bookies were running scared and Marquez was a huge favourite in the outright betting with few doubting he would win the 2015 championship.
With almost one third of the season gone, Marquez remains the favourite with the odds men but there is virtually nothing between him and the two men behind him in the betting. Marquez can be backed at odds of 6/4 whilst Jorge Lorenzo is on offer at 7/4, the same betting odds as Valentino Rossi.
Marquez has enjoyed, or not as the case may be, a hugely disappointing start to the campaign and despite claiming pole in America, Argentina and last time out at Le Mans, he has managed just one race win to date, in America. Fifth in Qatar, fourth in the most recent race in France and a retirement in Argentina have left the Spaniard down in fourth place in the championship and there is clearly a lot of work to be done on and off the track.
As the new kid on the block has faltered, veteran Rossi has been a model of consistency, with two wins and three podiums from the five races to date. Rossi, who we tipped for the title at odds of 9/2 in our first look at the outright winner betting before the season began, has so much experience that he just has to be respected. The Italian won seven MotoGP titles between 2002 and 2009 and is a legend of the sport and now he has his nose in front he will take some stopping. He was second last year and whilst Marquez may yet catch him, given the current odds we simply have to make Rossi our main betting tip for outright success.
Of course, Lorenzo, who currently leads Marquez by 18 points and has won the last two GPs, would disagree with our prediction and there are sure to be some who will back the 2010 and 2012 champion. Lorenzo finished third last year and whilst there is a very real chance he may have what it takes, of the three men at the top of the betting, he is our least preferred option.
So, if you, like us, believe that age is just a number and that the Yamahas have the edge this season our betting tip is a simple one: back Rossi to be the outright MotoGP winner in 2015!

Q: Calculate the sunlight direction according to the current time and position on the earth How can I calculate the position of the sun according to the current time and position on the earth?  I am currently adding light-sources to an Augmented Reality framework on Android and it would be great to know where to set the "sun".  I think there are a lot of factors but an approximation would be enough for now I think.

A: take a look at the noaa site, they give you a spreadsheet that gives you the results you want.


Discussion in 'Computers, Cabling & Other Miscellaneous Hardware' started by toodle_pipsky, Oct 25, 2011.
See this is what happens when you take a break from your hobby for 9 or so months - you forget or stuff breaks.
Ok I have 2 TigerDMX48s which I'd like to use for my mega tree and etc. I at least used one last year no problems, so I know at some point I had everything hooked up fine and working. With the show computer dead (HD failure) I can't see how I set up Vixen or just simply test from a known working state.
I've installed my Lynx dongle ok, both lights are on. When I connect a cat 5 cable to the Tiger, there are no lights appearing on the Tiger. Vixen had a brain fart too and shut down. Had a search around for the past hour and a half for destructions on what to do and found very little on this board, so I'm guessing someone must have talked me through it last year (?). Seems like the Tiger just came out and that was it.
What I thought I did last year hasn't worked. Would someone be willing to just jot a quick step by step process of how to connect a TigerDMX48?
I have found this to be a handy tool for checking cables, controllers and SSRs, http://sourceforge.net/projects/xlights/ you can easily set up your dongle comm port and set the channel tests. If your not sure what the start address for the controller was just select all to make sure it is connecting and then work your way through using 1 or 16 at a time.
One thing to check is that the PC is seeing the dongle when you plug it into the USB port, I am using Vista and I didn't have to download any drivers for the dongle.
I can see the dongle, it's com 3 for me. On a side note I'm using XP for the show comp, might try it on another comp.
Tried another computer and the dongle installed just fine and still nothing.
I'm obviously missing something with the Tiger board itself. Does anyone have a spare second to just jot a list that says "Dummy plug thing here, other thing there and you're done"? That's all I need.
What lights are on (or flashing) on the Tiger 48 board?
No lights come on at all.
I don't know what the start address was, I lost everything with the show computer dying.
No lights coming on is your first problem. Have you checked that the fuses are installed and good? Is voltage even getting to the board ?
Thanks for that David - voltage wasn't getting to the board. I tried a different cable and lights came on. Checked the original cable and couldn't find why it wasn't working but have chucked it anyway.
No problem Ingrid. Always pays to check the simple things first.
My basic rule is never assume anything. A skipped diagnostic step will come back to bite you all too often.
Very true - didn't help that I couldn't remember what I did last year either.
Thanks, that would be great. I'll let you know how I go once I get them out in the yard.


From the familiar and fantastic racing in Canada, Formula One now moves to a fresh entry on the 2014 calendar. The Austrian Grand Prix returns this year after last being held in 2003. The break has seen some changes, with new owners, a new name, and a new feel. Although not a brand new race, it will be an education for those who haven't seen any Austrian action before (like me), and will provide an element of the unknown for this first half of the season. With the championship very much up for grabs, and the proof that Mercedes aren't completely untouchable, this weekend should hold a lot of good things in store.
Daniel Ricciardo took his maiden win in Montreal, but even he isn't under the impression that the Mercedes advantage has been quashed. The gap closed a little, perhaps, and visible proof that the Silver Arrows can have reliability issues just as anyone else can, but the smart money still has to be on Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg fighting for victory at the Red Bull Ring.
Behind the leaders, it was a surprise to find that the first major inter-team crash happened at Marussia - a team riding high from securing their first points. With Max Chilton and Jules Bianchi ending their Canadian race early, and in disgrace, there are penalty hangovers for this weekend. Chilton gets a grid drop for the tussle, and Sergio Pérez is also facing a demotion after his high-profile and controversial collision with Felipe Massa.
The Austrian track will be new for many of the drivers this year, but a handful will have experience of the previous incarnation. None will know what it's like on the current crop of Pirelli tyres or with the new breed of cars, so it should be a new playing field for all.
It's almost impossible to forecast what the weather will be like at the weekend in Austria, as changeable conditions are the name of the game. If we must pin down our expectations, it looks like there could be rain going into the weekend - perhaps affecting the key practice sessions. It should start to clear up as the hours count down towards the race, with the long range forecasts suggesting a cloudy qualifying leading to an overcast event.
The new Red Bull Ring has had facility upgrades, but the track is fundamentally the same as the previous incarnation, the A1-Ring. Both pale in comparison to the Österreichring, the fearsome and lengthy original layout. The revised lap has a simple format, ten quick turns across just over four kilometres. The home straight ends in a ninety degree right hander that may cause some problems on that first turn of the first lap of the first GP there in a decade.
Although there isn't any modern data for the track, Williams have estimated plenty of statistics based on their simulations. The most startling is the chance of a safety car appearing during the race, which stands at more than 80%. Downforce levels are expected to be medium to high, whilst the level of cooling isn't going to be an issue - unless the changeable conditions take a turn upwards.
In the seven F1 races held at the A1-Ring (in the same layout as the new Red Bull Ring), Ferrari and McLaren won two apiece, with Williams taking the inaugural victory. Pole position didn't appear to be as key as at other tracks, with only three of the seven polesitters going on to take victory.
Of course, the circuit played host to one of the most controversial team order calls in the history of the sport, Ferrari's Michael Schumacher taking the win after Rubens Barrichello relinquished the lead to his teammate. Barrichello had started the race on pole position, so if nature had been allowed to take it's course, the statistic would be four of the seven polesitters turning the first grid spot into victory.
For tyre supplier Pirelli, going to a new track presents a tricky decision. The Italian manufacturer have run as many simulations and analysed the data as much as possible, but it's not until the cars hit the tarmac that we'll know how they've fared. For this weekend, they've opted for the two softest compounds - red and yellow sidewalls - in the hopes of creating opportunities for interesting strategies.
Based on the asphalt samples and track inspections from our engineers, we believe that the two softest compounds in our range will deliver the best compromise between performance and grip on a circuit where the teams are expected to run high downforce. One interesting question mark will be the weather, which is well known for being unpredictable over the circuit.

CET Multifunctional complex - Budapest
The Budapest whale
Two nineteenth century granaries built on the banks of the river Danube encounter the visionary architecture of Kas Oosterhuis
Santino Limonta
Majolika Kft
Year of completion
Although the new Bálna multifunctional centre in Budapest was due to be opened in 2010, a dispute between the parties brought the work to a standstill. Following a difficult process of conciliation, the structure – until then known as CET, the acronym for Central European Time, and subsequently renamed Bálna (whale) due to its shape – was finally opened in November 2013. The "whale" reclines placidly on the retaining walls on the Pest side of the Danube, between the Petöfi bridge and the Szabadság bridge near the Közraktárak, the historic granaries. Four such granaries were built between 1874 and 1881 to store the large quantities of grain that were produced in Hungary and transported here by boat, but one was demolished after suffering severe bomb damage during the Second World War. The idea that arose every so often of remodelling the three remaining granaries finally came to fruition early this century when the task of studying a solution was assigned to Kas Oosterhuis, one of the best-known representatives of so-called Non-standard Architecture. But there was one condition: at least 60% of the original volume was to be retained. In his project, the Dutch architect chose to reuse only the two parallel buildings on the city centre side (while the third, reduced in size, remained isolated to the south) after demolishing 20 metres at one end to improve access. He also wanted the architecture of the new construction to symbolically represent the flow of the river Danube. The result is an iconic cetacean-shaped glass, steel and aluminium building 160 metres in length. To the north, in a combination of "fin de siècle" architecture and visionary design, it penetrates the space between the two remodelled granaries, embracing, uniting and protecting them, then emerges and expands to reach its maximum size (the head) to the south. The arched roof is made from triangular panels (the geometric shape that allows for the maximum flexibility in forming curves) mounted on an impressive tubular steel structure. This alternation of transparency and shading enables the interiors to enjoy abundant sunlight without overheating. Each roof element has a unique shape and size, identity and precise position, and each was manufactured digitally by a numerically controlled machine based on data received directly from the design software. This approach is typical of Kas Oosterhuis's non-standard architecture, which in complex projects like this allows for mass customisation. The Bálna extends over five levels and has a gross floor space of 27,000 square metres. The two underground floors, with their total space of 7,500 square metres, are used for car parking. The three above-ground floors accommodate boutiques, art galleries, bookstores, restaurants, cafes and a 1,500 square metre space for event hosting. It is also home to the 760 square metre New Budapest Gallery, which organises exhibitions by contemporary artists. Everywhere the interior design displays a combination of past and future. The technological elements made of steel, aluminium and glass rub shoulders with coloured concrete and mirror-polished cement, as well as floor coverings made of wood, stone and burnt yellow bricks typical of late nineteenth century architecture. The large porcelain panels from the TriBeCa collection, Beton colour, by NovaBell integrate perfectly into this context. A total of 1,500 square metres were installed on the floors in communal areas, access spaces and corridors.

As the 2005 Mustang's chief engineer he hit the Automotive Radar screen. In his new job, he has to merge the needs of advanced product creation and SVT.
Ford's Product Development Center, or PDC, is located near the Henry Ford Museum, and Ford's Dearborn, MI, test track. Literally next door is Ford's Design Center; while across the street is the dynamometer building where the engines that won Le Mans and the Indy 500 in the 1960s were developed. Despite being surrounded by history and creativity, the PDC itself is a depressing place: the walls are painted an indeterminate shade of gray and punctuated by ridged glass panels well above shoulder height, executive assistants are sequestered in-between these walls and those of the offices beyond, and the offices themselves-though spacious-are painted the same hideous color as the hallway. About halfway down the corridor is the office of Hau Thai-Tang, director of Advanced Product Creation and Ford's Special Vehicle Team (SVT). It's a wonder he and his team can be creative at all in such depressing surroundings.
"At the end of the day," says Hau Thai-Tang, director of Advanced Product Creation and Ford's Special Vehicle Team (SVT), "we're trying to do more products faster. One of the key enablers for that is kicking off programs that have compatible assumptions. We didn't do a great job of that in the past." Thai-Tang's job as head of Advanced Product Creation is to go beyond the platform capability studies that determine how many derivatives can be built off a single base, beyond the external market data within which new market segments hide, and reconcile the business equation with the hardware assumptions and the design assumptions with the bill of process. Not doing this, he warns, "causes a lot of churn, revisions to the product assumptions, and it results in late changes that increase costs and cause reliability and quality gaps."
The time spent as chief engineer on the Mustang gave Thai-Tang a vision of success for his new position: assumptions that are attainable. This is a far cry from what happens in most new vehicle programs, where the cost and functional objectives are misaligned, the revenue assumptions don't support the variable cost targets, or the volume assumption is incompatible with the available capacity at the plant. "These are traditional incompatibilities that can make it very difficult for the team to execute," says Thai-Tang, "and they are often led by being overly aggressive in our market assumptions. That's what leads to subsidizing sales with incentives of some sort." Rather than handing the chief engineer conflicting requirements that have no hope of intersecting on a Venn diagram, Thai-Tang is working to develop a process that delivers targets based on reasonable assumptions, no matter the vehicle.
"We are looking at this from a very holistic perspective," he says, "and that means going beyond adding doors, stretching wheelbases, and putting different body styles on a platform. It means trying to get to that true game changer, which is something that Ford has done very well in the past." Chasing this elusive beast is only possible if the rest of the company is on solid product ground, and the product cadence set out by Phil Martens, Ford's group vice president, Product Creation helps by delivering a set grouping of vehicles on a predetermined schedule over the next four years. This gives Thai-Tang and his team time to ponder what products might be in Ford's cupboard in the 2010 to 2020 timeframe.
"The challenge for the team is to discern the untapped consumer needs, and develop a concept that hits that sweet spot," he says. A small example of the thinking behind this effort is the "My Color" instrument lighting offered on the 2005 Mustang. "No one was asking for the chance to mix colors from three light sources to produce unique instrument cluster lighting," says Thai-Tang, "but our research said this was something the customer would want." That research, by the way, looked at real estate trends, specifically the trend toward look-alike housing developments and the effect this has on interior design. "The houses may look the same on the outside," he says, "but they are very different on the inside where people show their individuality. We saw the opportunity to offer Mustang buyers the chance to customize the interior of their vehicle while keeping the same 'exterior elevation' as the standard Mustang."
Should all this sound a bit too sanitary, don't forget the other half of Thai-Tang's job: director of Ford's Special Vehicle Team. Under John Coletti's control, SVT produced a number of serious go-fast vehicles for costs well below what mainstream engineering could achieve under the corporate rules they must follow. The supercharged Mustang Cobra, Lightning pickup, SVT Contour and Focus, Ford GT, and the basis for the 2006 Shelby GT500-sans the production car's live rear axle-came from Coletti's tight-knit engineering team, his ability to bend the system to his will, and to ignore the rulebook altogether when necessary. Thai-Tang's job is to merge this rag-tag skunk works operation into the mainstream operation without killing its spirit or ability to do what's best for the company-even when that is contrary to the mainstream organization's wishes.
As he bluntly puts it: "The balance that every performance niche brand tries to walk is building halo products and making money." On one side is the low-volume credible performance vehicle that is break-even at best. On the other side are enhanced performance products that require less investment, have pretty good margins, and sell in numbers that make money for the company at the expense of its performance image. They are vehicles that, almost inevitably, devolve into paint-and-spoiler packages at most companies, something Thai-Tang must keep from occurring. Ultimately, this diminution of image can lead to the death of the performance brand. "What we want to do is a little of both," Thai-Tang states, "with vehicles like the Shelby GT500 and Sport Trac Adrenalin polishing the Ford oval and SVT brand."
To hear many in the Ford and supplier communities tell it, however, the SVT brand will fade away and be replaced by an "Engineered by SVT" identifier that covers all of the vehicles touched by the group's magic wand. SVT-engineered halo cars like the Ford GT, unfortunately, will be few and far between thanks to limited resources, while more mainstream performance vehicles become the norm. Even the unique SVT dealer body, it is strongly rumored, will eventually disappear. What remains unclear is whether or not these SVT engineered line extensions will be shared with Mercury and Lincoln.
To give SVT the greatest possible leeway to produce vehicles that are more than tape stripes and special colors requires Thai-Tang to meld the needs of SVT with those of Advanced Product Creation. "For SVT to be successful," he says, "we must think about, consider, and accommodate a performance derivative when we sit down to design a vehicle. Otherwise it becomes very difficult for SVT to 'bolt on' performance downstream." Each new vehicle coming out of the advanced team, he says, will have a body structure, suspension kinematics, and weight distribution that can support SVT's needs. And this attention to detail ultimately should improve the breed. "I'm in a pretty good position, doing the advanced product stuff, to think about the potential SVT derivatives and accommodate those needs," he says. With any luck, the dull dreariness of the building he works in won't stand in the way of creatively achieving those goals.


Machine learning is a key trend in SEO in 2019. This year, search engine companies have come up with certain layout changes whose goal is to answer intents rather than questions. This is the root of ML's impact on search.
Even though we have witnessed the application of machine learning in search before with Google News groupings, RankBrain, and etc, we have not really experienced the real power of it! 2019 is the year we are going to experience it.
Experts advise website owners to incorporate machine learning in their SEO strategy. When more websites do so, the search experience is going to be better. In other words, the results are going to be more relevant, such that searchers are going to be able to find the right results faster without having to perform more searches.
Let us face it, even search engines can have a difficult time deciphering your web page content, especially if it is poorly done with unstructured data. If that happens, you can be sure that they will punish you with lower rankings. If you need help with this, contact an expert for a free consultation.
But if you use structured data, search engines are able to crawl your site and understand your web page content with much ease. With that, there is a big reward that comes and more websites are finally starting to it. That is the reason why the use of structured data has become such a big trend in SEO in 2019.
So, start using metadata, tags, information architecture and structured markup to give search engines more ability to understand your website without too much effort. By the way, when they can do that, your visitors can do that too.
Optimizing for search engine results page features like snippets, images, videos, tweets and ratings as well as reviews has never been so crucial than it is in 2019. By doing so, you earn more credibility and authority. Besides that, it allows your prospects to get key information about your company before visiting your website. All these are benefits that can result in more conversions for you. That is the reason why many websites are big on SERP feature optimization in 2019. If you have not jumped on the bandwagon yet, it is high time you did.
For a long time, website owners have focused more on search engines than anything else in SEO. But now, they seem to be shifting from that approach by trying to understand their audience and user intent. Does my audience prefer video, audio, images or text? What are my audience's interest, taste, and preference Those are some of the fundamental questions many website owners will have in mind when developing a strategy for SEO in 2019.
Try to understand your audience and user intent first before developing an SEO strategy. That way, you will be able to enhance your audience's search journey and they will invest in you. Search engines will reward you too by ranking you high.
These are some of the top trends in SEO in 2019 to watch out for. Incorporate machine learning and structured data markup in your SEO strategy, optimize for SERP features and understand your audience plus user intent. When you do so, you can be sure that you will get better results with your SEO strategy.


Mayor Rahm Emanuel on Tuesday urged his old friend, Gov. Bruce Rauner, to "hit the re-set button" and present a balanced budget that makes the state and its public schools whole.
On the eve of the governor's budget address, Emanuel used a luncheon speech to the Economic Club of Chicago to demand that Rauner do what the law demands of every other chief executive: present a balanced budget.
"Tomorrow, our governor is gonna give a speech, a budget. He has to deliver a balanced budget that funds education. Our kids are too important. They're making all the reading gains and math gains," the mayor told his audience of movers and shakers.
Emanuel called out his former business associate and travel companion on the same day that the Chicago Public Schools sued the governor and the Illinois State Board of Education, alleging that the way the state funds schools violates the civil rights of the minority children who make up nine out of 10 city students.
"That cannot be in a state or a city's economic interest where people are not going to our universities because of the uncertainty in the state budget," the mayor said.
Emanuel noted that Chicago has more universities than any other cities with the exception of Boston. Chicago is also home to two national labs as well as leading law schools, business schools and engineering schools.
"But, our state, because of the uncertainty around a budget, is basically telling university students, 'Don't apply to UIC. Don't apply to Northern Illinois. Don't apply to Western [Illinois] because, who knows what tomorrow will be like,' " the mayor said.
Rauner will deliver his third budget address on Wednesday.
He has said he'll offer up a similar budget proposal as last year, when he gave the General Assembly two options: work with him on getting a balanced budget or give him the power to make his own cuts.
On Friday, the governor told the Chicago Sun-Times editorial board that he would break his silence about which measures of the 12-bill "grand bargain" package being pushed by Il. Senate leaders that he supports.
"I will be very clear about what we should do," Rauner said of his budget address.
As for the Senate leaders' effort, Rauner's administration on Friday confirmed the governor will "provide principles he supports" during his budget address. Still, aides noted he will be careful not to disrupt the ongoing talks.


The ECU Flash memory is divided into to sections; Code, and Map Data.
The code is the software that runs the ECU. The Map Data is hard coded data that is used to determine the ECU operating parameters and adjust them for varying conditions such as gear position, temperature, etc.
The data here is represented graphically.
At this point I have not decoded the software to the point that I can give a detailed analysis of each map. That will come later. But there is still some interesting information that can be gained from them.
It should be noted that usually the way these maps are used is that a value, like a temperature is represented as a single byte value between 0-255. This value along with a pointer to a map are put through a software algorithm and a corrected value is returned. In other words you input a temperature and a map and it returns how much to correct fuel injection for temperature.
Many of these maps are only 16 or 24 bytes but still return a value for an input from 0-255. The software averages the map values to fill in the blanks.
You can see the repeative patterns with minor variations if you copy it and zoom in on it with a graphics program.
The ECU modifies its behavior depending on which gear the bike is in. There are over a dozen sections of the software where a calculation is performed using map data from one of six different maps depending on which gear the bike is in.
Here are two of those maps.
At this point I haven't gone through the software enough to tell you exactly what these maps are for. The x and y axis could be fuel, rpm, or ?? Eventually I will know exactly what they are for.
The only thing they really show is that the gears are treated differently. They are really just a tease of things to come.
I was reading a thread on anothe site where someone was talking about modifying the water temp signal to the ECU to richen the mixture when they activated their nitrous system.
The nitrous shot adds more oxygen to the combustion and requires more fuel to keep the A/F ratio correct. The ECU runs the bike rich when its cold, like a choking a carb bike, and uses the water temp to determine how much fuel to add.
The water temp signal is a simple resistor to ground that changes resistance with temperature. Their idea was to use a relay to disconnect the temp sensor and substitute a resistor of a known value when they hit the NOS switch. What value resistor should they use?
The first map confused me at first. I expected to see an increase in fuel when the bike was cold that would rapidly fall off as the bike warmed up. It turned out when I looked at the software closer that the first map corrects for the non-linearity of the temp sensor and makes it linear. The second map is the acutal fuel vs temp map.
After tracing out the internal temp sensor schematic of the ECU and using the map data I came up with a method of selecting the amount of enrichment you want.
retarded timing (for an extend period) 'on the edge' might be a bad idea for this guy.
I wasn't aware of that. I'll mention it to them. There may be a an additional ignition map I didn't specifically look for one.
I came across this interesting map data viewing tool on another ECU site. The first file is the viewer, the second is ECU map binary.
The software is non english. The only option from the menubar is file:open. Open the zzr-t006.bin file.
Again at this point the data doesn't mean much but I just thought I would share this with you.
I'm working on trying to get this software to work with this ECU.
Apparently you can modify it to work with any ECU by just rewriting an XML definition file.
I created a rudimentary ECU definition of the '02 ZX-12 for the Enginuity Map viewer/editor from Enginuity.org Here is a 3D image from the software.
You can view the map data and in the case of the 3D maps create a rotatable topo map image.
As I go thru the code I will update the definition so that the X and Y axis will show RPM, Throttle Postion, etc and the data will be in actual fuel amounts delivered. Right now it is just the raw data.
You can find the Viewer Software, Map file, and latest Map definition in the Map Files Download Thread. I seperated them because the map definition file is the only one I will be changing as we go along. No need to re-download the others files.
Here are some screen shots of the Enginuity software maps for the ZX-12 ECU.
Boy, you can really see the resonances in the stock system in the fuel map especially. A lovely rising sine curve with larger throttle openings, totally textbook for having an intake, cam timing and exhaust that all are tuned with the same resonance.
The ZX-12R is better behaved with coolant temp adjustments than some bikes out there. Hondas in particular are notorious for going pig rich if you get the coolant sensor much over 205 F. The bike becomes a real bear to ride, and non-responsive to the throttle. I wouldn't be very happy with fooling the ECU with coolant temp changes, looking at the course stair-steps on that map. Not a very accurate and repeatable way to change your mixture... This is why aftermarket companies abandoned that strategy in the motorcycle market a long time ago (the Power Commander II was the main unit using that strategy, and it was replaced some time ago in all markets, AFAIK, with the PC III, which alters injector pulse width).
I glad to know there is someone around here who knows more about the theory and practical application side of this than I do.
I do sell copies of my book outright, signed if people want. :) I usually ask $20 plus shipping; it's a shade more than Amazon.com, but not a huge amount, and I make a bunch more selling them myself (not that I get a whole lot either way!).
If the cams, intake and exhaust are all tuned to make best power at a certain engine speed, you will tend to see the torque curve changing in a sine curve at different engine speeds with the throttle wide open. You're seeing the resonances of the individual parts working together, and like any resonant system, you have a peak and a valley that are harmonics of the tuned frequency. I'm slightly surprised that Kawasaki set the bike up this way; presumably they did it to be able to advertise very high peak bhp numbers, and possibly to push the potential top speed a little for promotional purposes as well. Typically, manufacturers will have the different tuned bit set to different resonant frequencies so that the valley on one part is canceled by peaks on one or more other components; this gives a very smooth torque curve if done right, which means predictable and even throttle response, which makes the bike easier to ride AND more confidence-inspiring, too. They have added flappers in the airbox and valves inside the exhaust system on many newer bikes to allow power to be increased across the board by changing the resonances of the various components, as well as keeping gas velocity high at lower engine speeds and smaller throttle openings. Much like variable length intakes and variable valve timing in cars, it re-tunes the systems for best power over a much larger operating range.
I just downloaded the enginuity software and the maps. Thanks Ridge for making them so easy to look at. It is really cool being able to see exactly what is happening inside the "magic box" on my 12.
Ridge, the AP injector 1 map is confusing to me. I would expect fuel to increase with pressure. You have the x-axis labeled as Inlet Air Pressure (% of max). What exactly does this relate to? MAP sensor voltage? It would make more since to me if the axis said %from max.
The timing wheel is shown with cylinders 1 and 4 at TDC. You can see that the sensor is mounted 10 degrees off the TDC line. This means that when tab 8 is directly in front of the sensor the crank is at 10 BTDC. Which is the idle timing advance specified in the manual.
In looking at the software I find that actually tab 7 would trigger the Coil timing calculation. It would pull the value from the coil maps shown above and then subtract it from 67.5 degrees. The idle figure, and lowest value shown, in the map is 64. As explained above this is a fraction of 90 degrees, 256 being 1/1 and 64/256 = 1/4 = 22.5 degrees.
Now when tab 7 is in front of the sensor 67.5 degrees in the future is half way between tabs 1 and 8. Of course 67.5 - 22.5 = 45 degrees. 45 degrees after tab 7 is in front of the sensor would be tab 8 in front of the sensor or as stated above 10 BTDC.
The values are only valid when the ambient is at standard pressure (75.42cmHg). The variance with change in ambient is only a couple percent however.

Gala planned to support Hope House in Harrington
Aug 7th, 2019 · by Jennifer Antonik · Comments:
The Greater Harrington Community Development Corporation is planning their inaugural gala, hoping community members will masquerade the night away in support of the Hope House.
The event, scheduled for Saturday night, at the Harrington Raceway & Casino, will feature live music, fine dining and plenty of opportunities for dancing and networking as the night goes on, according to the Hope House's Director of Development Lakia Moore.
"The gala came to be as a fundraiser to support the Greater Harrington Community Development Corporation," she explained. "We have a house we call the Hope House. We offer a number of initiatives there. It could be anything from tutoring services to our partnership with the state so people who need to sign up for state benefits can come do that."
The organization also provides workshops on homebuying, credit repair and other situations from the Hope House, as well as services directed toward children.
"We have a computer lab, too, which we want to use throughout the year for tutoring. And we have ways to get the youth active and busy and to give them the things they need to be successful," she said. "The money raised from the gala will go back to those types of offerings and to help with the upkeep of the house, as well."
The home itself has a strong history and connection to the Harrington community as it was the home of Dr. William Thomas Chipman.
He died in 1961 at the age of 70 years old after working as a physician for 39 years, according to his obituary. He was eventually elected to serve as a representative in the Delaware General Assembly and became the first president of the Harrington Chamber of Commerce, among just a few of his community-wide contributions.
"My understanding that Dr. Chipman lived upstairs and he saw patients downstairs. The plan is really to do upgrades and remodel, but keeping the history of the home, and the charm, intact," Ms. Moore said. "So, you'll hear the typical, 'Oh, you have old man Chipman's house. I think he would be proud of what we're doing here today."
The home itself has already seen some upgrades as the organization purchased it several years ago, however, they hope to make it wheelchair accessible in the near future, she added.
The Greater Harrington Community Development Corporation also purchased about 26 acres of land in Harrington to further develop their mission ". . .to facilitate continuous, long-term improvements through community development and foster positive change for those who live, learn, and labor in the Harrington, Delaware and surrounding communities."
The goal, Ms. Moore said, is to create a larger, more modern community center to expand on their offerings and better serve the community.
"Over the last decade or so, we've seen so many changes in the world as we know it that have undoubtedly had trickle down effects on small communities. From being displaced from homes to rising unemployment rates and underemployed people. We've met young people desiring to do amazing things with parents limited in their ability to help them get there. We've encountered people unsure where their next meal is coming from to people who have a desire to do and have better but lack the resources or guidance to get them there," LeFeisha Cannon said of the organization.
"We saw an opportunity to help people get to their greater place in life and decided to focus our efforts on ways we could help people be better – better parents, better children, better students, better employees, better neighbors, better citizens and ultimately create a better community for future generations," she added.
The gala is one way to do just that while enjoying a night out with fine dining, dancing, a silent auction and live music.
"The purpose of this gala is really to raise awareness of this organization and the offerings of the Hope House and raise funds to keep us going. I think there's a number of people who live in Harrington who are not really sure of what goes on in their own backyard," Ms. Moore said.
Tickets are still on sale for $50 each and can be purchased by visiting the organization online at www.greaterharrington.org.

Q: What does it mean to use ribbon callbacks? I am developing a COM add-in for Excel and I've received a comment that I should use ribbon callbacks.
My code seems to work, so I don't know what the problem is. I have read about callbacks on the Internet, but haven't understood how it pertains to my add-in.
The person who gave me the feedback is a much better programmer than me though, so he is probably right. Maybe you guys know more about what it means to use ribbon callbacks and why I should use it?
Here is an example from my code that reacts to and modifies the ribbon:
private void AdxRibbonButton2_OnClick(object sender, IRibbonControl control, bool pressed)
{
    if (CurrentExcelWorksheetEventsInstance.TimerOn == false) {
        //Start Timer
        CurrentExcelWorksheetEventsInstance.TimerStart = Now;
        CurrentExcelWorksheetEventsInstance.TimerOn = true;
        UpdateRibbonTimer(CurrentExcelWorksheetEventsInstance.TimerOn);
    } else {
        //Stop Timer
        NewTableRow(true, Math.Round(DateDiff(DateInterval.Second, CurrentExcelWorksheetEventsInstance.TimerStart, Now()) / 60.0 / 60.0, 3));
        CurrentExcelWorksheetEventsInstance.TimerOn = false;
        UpdateRibbonTimer(CurrentExcelWorksheetEventsInstance.TimerOn);
    }
}

A: A callback is a function that executes when the user interacts with the ribbon XML control. The AdxRibbonButton2_OnClick function is clearly not a callback. It is probably an event handler since the first parameter is called sender and is of type object. A callback function for a checkbox or toggle button would like this:
public void MyCheckBox_OnAction(IRibbonControl control, bool isPressed)
{
}

And in the XML file, the control can be defined like this:
<checkBox id="MyCheckBox" onAction="MyCheckBox_OnAction" />

In this way, when the checkbox is clicked, the callback is called. Callbacks behave just like event handlers. The difference is that they are bound in the XML file, not in code.
Instead of registering to an event, it would be just a little easier to use callbacks. It is also a little more convenient when using ribbon XML. To register to an event, you need to maintain a reference to the control and you have to write a line of code to manually register event handler. You should use events only when you need to register more than one callback or if you want to unregister a callback or when the callback to be registered is not known until run time.

A: In computer programming, a callback is a piece of executable code that is passed as an argument to other code, which is expected to call back (execute) the argument at some convenient time. The invocation may be immediate as in a synchronous callback, or it might happen at later time as in an asynchronous callback. In all cases, the intention is to specify a function or subroutine as an entity that is, depending on the language, more or less similar to a variable.
Programming languages support callbacks in different ways, often implementing them with subroutines, lambda expressions, blocks, or function pointers.
As for the Ribbon UI (aka Fluent UI), you specify the name of function which needs to be called when Office updates the UI and gather new values. Thus, you will be able to specify new values and keep the UI updates. There is no direct properties like Windows Forms provide, all UI updates are made through callbacks.
You can read more about the Ribbon UI (Fluent UI) and callbacks in the following series of articles in MSDN:

Health care systems worldwide have undergone dramatic changes since the beginning of the 21st century, and for this issue of ANS we are calling for manuscripts that provide evidence of approaches to health care that address pressing issues that gave rise to the changes. In particular, we seek manuscripts that describe nursing models that have influenced health care delivery, and evidence related to outcomes based on these models. We also welcome manuscripts that present theoretical and philosophical perspectives that contribute to understanding and shaping health care delivery policy and decisions.
Of course I am inclined to think that the most significant problem affecting health care policy, the health care system and the quality and quantity of nursing care has to have a timeline that goes back even further than Richard Nixon's support for health maintenance organizations and the promotion of capaitation as a major form of payment for health care services.
This even longer time frame, two centuries, dating back to Carl Friedrich Gauss' work on measurement error and the normal (Gaussian) distribution is necessary to really understand the mathematical and statistical basis of the fundamental flaw of capitation financed health care: That capitation cannot work in efficient health care (finance) systems ergot, capitaion cannot drive our health care (finance) systems toward an efficient state.
The core problem of 21st century nursing has to do with resource constraints and insurance risk bearing by health care providers. While resource constraints by themselves are more than adequate to negatively impact the quality and quantity of nursing care the real problem is far more injurious.
When health care providers: Hospitals, Physicians, Nursing homes and Home health agencies bear the insurance risks associated with the care of their patients AND the obligation to care for their patients, it is a simple matter of getting hit from both sets of demands.
Under a fee for service mechanism as the intensity of care required by patients rises so does the revenue stream associated with patient care. As a health care provider steps up to meet the needs of more complex, more intense or longer duration care the health care provider is compensated for the increased level of care rendered.
Under capitation-like health care finance mechanisms the level of payment for care is fixed at the outset. As the intensity of care required by patients rises there is no increase in the revenue stream associated with patient care.
Rather than being able to step up to meet the needs of more complex, more intense or longer duration care the health care provider is compelled to manage the fixed revenues AND deliver the increased level of care rendered.
The problem here is that health care providers have been failing, financially and clinically, at alarming rates since the introduction of the first risk-transferring efforts incuding Kaiser Permanente and the post-Nixonian decision to require employers to offer health maintenance organization coverage to their employees.
The crux of the issue has to do with the proximity of the average cost of providing care to the average for the population cared for. The basis of insurance is that unlike individual policyholders, insurers have an advantage in managing risk that no single policyholder has: While some policyholders will have very high claims which the insurer will have to pay, most policyholders will not.
Large insurers can offer insurance protections to their policyholders at a cost close to the average claim cost per policyholder and still earn very predictable profits every year.
Individual policyholders cannot do the same and small insurers do not do as well as large insurers.
When the insurer is very small: A single Physician, Nurse, Hospital, Nursing home or Home health agency the variation in avaerage costs for their patients, during any specific financial period: Patient, Shift, Day, Week, Month, Quarter or year is far too high. Such risk bearing providers' service costs may be higher, or lower, than the payments they will receive and the core premise of capitation-like health care mechanisms is that these risk-bearing health care providers will become "more efficient" by reducing the cost of the care they provide.
But, in an efficient health care (finance) system, individual providers do not have the ability to control the severity of illness of their patients. The only way that risk-bearing health care providers can control the costs of care, in efficient health care (finance) systems is by reducing the level of care they provide, lest they, at the end of any specific financial period, become insolvent.
The issue of how health care, and more specifically how nursing care is financed is the defining issue affecting the quality and quantity of nursing care in the 21st Century. If the advocates of capitation succeed in implementing capitation as the sole method of financing nursing care, the quality of nursing care will plummet in all settings.
While the rich will be able to access care on a fee for service basis, the overwhelming majority of the population will not. The poor, disenfranchised, people of color are the ones most impacted by the manner in which health care services are paid. It is the poor and the powerless suffer the delays and denials of diagnosis and treatment that come with capitated health care finance.
Until nursing puts its attention on the singularly most impactful aspect of modern health care, until nurses understand the impact of risk transferring health care finance mechanisms and nurses address these issues in their worksites and at a national level, nursing will continue to offer suggestions for care that will be ignored by the seemingly more sophisticated players at the tables, the people who have the stacks of financial analyses, the reams of paper on how much patient care costs and who seem to understand (But do not) how the health care service system can respond to capitation-like health care finance mechanisms.
But the misinformation overload is pretty overwhelming. So many poor ideas, so little thought or analysis.

Q: Cognos reports - Static choice in value prompt I have a Column 'Status' which has values like Rework, Draft,Cancelled, Reviewed,Completed.
So in the prompt page i want a static choice with display value 'Treated' and 'Not treated'.
When the user selects 'Treated' then the "use values" should be 'Reviewed','Completed'
else if the user selects 'Not treated' it should be 'Rework',' Draft','Cancelled'. So how can we give multiple use values in static choice?
Please help!!!!

A: You need to create more advanced filter.
(?Selector? = 'Treated' and [Your column] in ('Reviewed','Completed'))
or
(?Selector? = 'Not treated' and [Your column] in ('Rework',' Draft','Cancelled'))

Where ?Selector? - you prompt variable.

A: Based on your comments, you need an if/then in your filter:
if (?Prompt? = 'Treated')
        then ([column] in ('Reviewed','Completed'))
else
        ([column] in ('Rework','Draft','Cancelled'))

The OR suggestion below will work as well, I just personally find the if/then logic easier to read.
