Q: Jexl parallel processing example I need to do several actions at the same time in Jexl. In official guide I found annotation @parallel:
https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-jexl/reference/syntax.html
But I didn't find any examples how to use it.
Can anyone provide some examples?
I thought it will work like this:
@parallel { a.someMethod() }
@parallel { b.someMethod() }

But seems like it's still working sequentially.
Second example I've tried, still not working:
var loopFunction = function(title){
    var i = 0;
    logger:info("Starting "+title);
    while(i<100) {
        logger:info(title+"="+i);
        utils:sleep(25);
        i += 1;
    }
    logger:info("Ending "+title);
}

@parallel loopFunction('i');
@parallel loopFunction('j');

A: It seems that it's an example of annotation, in jexl code it seems that only synchronized is implemented.

@Override
public Object processAnnotation(String name, Object[] args,Callable<Object> statement) throws Exception {

    if ("synchronized".equals(name)) {
        final Object arg = args[0];
        synchronized(arg) {
            return statement.call();
        }
    }
    throw new IllegalArgumentException("unknown annotation " + name);
}

There's a parallel test but it uses ExecutorService:

/**
     * Run same test function in NTHREADS in parallel.
     * @param ctask the task / test
     * @param loops number of loops to perform
     * @param cache whether jexl cache is used or not
     * @throws Exception if anything goes wrong
     */
    @SuppressWarnings("boxing")
    void runThreaded(Class<? extends Task> ctask, int loops, boolean cache) throws Exception {
        if (loops == 0) {
            loops = MIX.length;
        }
        if (!cache) {
            jexl = jexlNoCache;
        } else {
            jexl = jexlCache;
        }
        java.util.concurrent.ExecutorService execs = java.util.concurrent.Executors.newFixedThreadPool(NTHREADS);
        List<Callable<Integer>> tasks = new ArrayList<Callable<Integer>>(NTHREADS);
        for (int t = 0; t < NTHREADS; ++t) {
            tasks.add(jexl.newInstance(ctask, loops));
        }
        // let's not wait for more than a minute
        List<Future<Integer>> futures = execs.invokeAll(tasks, 60, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
        // check that all returned loops
        for (Future<Integer> future : futures) {
            Assert.assertEquals(Integer.valueOf(loops), future.get());
        }

Punch in for your first shift at the Museum of Industry and discover the roles children have played in the workforce since the 1880's. The shift boss will orient the students to their first day at work in a factory during the Industrial Revolution. Students are then guided through the Museum exhibits to discover how children have participated in the Nova Scotia labour force, from pioneer settlement to the computer age. Students discuss themes of economic empowerment and the conditions of everyday life for workers in the 19th and 20th centuries, and record their learning by completing a questionnaire.
Students are greeted by the "Shift Boss", who presents a scenario of children beginning work in a factory, ca. 1900. Through the scenario, key questions about child labor are introduced: How do children learn how to do jobs? Should children have jobs? Is it appropriate to treat workers differently, based on age or gender?
The tour of the Museum galleries presents the story of child labor in Nova Scotia from the 19th century to the present. Students discuss topics of training, education and apprenticeship, safety, empowerment, and age- and gender discrimination. Students also record information by completing a questionnaire.
Registration will begin in September. We encourage you to book early!

United boss Solskjaer commends Pogba focus

Published: Saturday, 12 December 2020 10:29 AM GMT+11
United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer (l) has praised Paul Pogba's focus amid talk he wants to leave. Credit: EPA
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has highlighted Paul Pogba's focus and appetite amid fresh speculation about his Manchester United future, saying the midfielder has never downed tools like some former players.
The 27-year-old has done little to extinguish talk about a transfer away from the north west over the years and publicly expressed his openness to a move in June 2019.
Pogba's agent Mino Raiola has repeatedly stoked the fire and, to the anger of those at Old Trafford, spoke in an interview on the eve of the crunch Champions League clash at RB Leipzig about his client's unhappiness.
Raiola claimed the midfielder would not sign a new deal beyond 2022, leading Solskjaer to say after the costly 3-2 loss in Germany that he hoped the agent realised football is about teams rather than individuals.
Pogba scored a deflected effort in a positive display off the bench at Leipzig and will be in the squad for Saturday's derby clash with Manchester City.
"I think I said during the week, of course, that this is a team game and Paul is part of this team," Solskjaer said.
"He's very focused on contributing when he's here. He's got the hunger and appetite to play, and he wants to play. He wants to train, he trains.
"There's been other players that's been refusing to train, refusing to play - and they're not here any more, of course. But Paul's not once done that.
"He's just focused on performing when he gets a chance and that's the good thing about Paul, that he's got the quality but he's also got the desire to do well when he comes on, like he did against Leipzig.
"He did have a positive impact so, yeah, the short answer to your question is he's part of the squad for tomorrow."

In win over Illinois, Northwestern proves its worth — and improvement
The 'Cats slayed a major dragon in front of a sellout crowd Wednesday evening.
By Bradley Locker@Bradley_Locker Jan 5, 2023, 11:58am CST
Share All sharing options for: In win over Illinois, Northwestern proves its worth — and improvement
@NUMensBball on Twitter.
Entering 2023, there appeared to be little firm ceiling on Northwestern men's basketball. Situated at 10-2 with its only two defeats to Auburn and Pitt, two very quality opponents, the team effectively controlled its own fate as to how far it went. Optimism was palpable that finally, this would be the team to make it back to the Big Dance.
Then, reality was delivered like a blow from Mike Tyson. The Wildcats were trounced 73-57 by Ohio State on New Year's Day, shooting a porous 28.4% and scoring only 17 points in the first half. Granted, the Buckeyes are a talented team and are now ranked, but this result provided little but anxiety-inducing memories of disappointing past NU seasons.
Enter Wednesday. Bitter rival Illinois rolled into Welsh-Ryan Arena, a team that Northwestern had not beaten in nearly four years — or the length of a full presidential administration, if you're looking for an equivalent time span.
Swarmed by a sea of orange and raucous "ILL-INI" chants in its own building, the home fans and team donning white easily could have been fazed. To describe the contingents of fandom as warring factions may not be apt enough.
Nevertheless, the Wildcats came out to a sold Welsh-Ryan Arena, played their tried and true form of basketball and, in so doing, prevailed over their in-state foe for the first time since Jan. 6, 2019.
It was far from a perfect, mistake-prone performance from Northwestern. The 'Cats shot only 32.1% from the floor, and the team's offense — for much of the first 30 minutes, anyway — was carried by a stellar night from Chase Audige.
However, NU emerged victorious due to two major facets: defense and free throws.
For one, the Wildcats forced 15 Illini turnovers, seven more than the home team compiled. Likewise, Chris Collins' team poured in 22 points off of turnovers, whereas Illinois had a meager four points in that same category. Beyond forcing mistakes, NU's stingy D swarmed to the basketball and disrupted Brad Underwood's squad's flow, particularly slowing down Coleman Hawkins (10 points on 4-of-11 shooting), Terrence Shannon Jr. (nine points on 3-of-8) and Skyy Clark (just 1-of-6).
Possibly the biggest determinant in the outcome was from the stripe. The 'Cats shot a gaudy 40 free throws, sinking 32 of them, while the Illini were granted only 10 opportunities for easier buckets. Whether through drawing contact or technical fouls, Northwestern put itself in superior position for simpler points, which it capitalized on.
I would be remiss to not acknowledge that 2022-23 has been a very topsy-turvy season for Illinois, which has already beaten No. 6 Texas and No. 10 UCLA. At the same time, the Illini are now 0-3 in Big Ten play and have heaps of questions regarding consistency, execution and, frankly, locker room morale.
But, the Illini are still an extraordinarily talented team, and a program that had tormented Northwestern for four full seasons. To be able to defeat your rival and protect home court is nothing to scoff at.
That brings me to my next point: that past Collins squads very likely would have squandered this precise type of contest.
After NU led 31-27 at halftime, the Illini roared to an 8-0 run, leading 37-33 with 17:03 left in the game. Momentum had been utterly sapped from the home side, and the deafening Illinois fans were literally on their feet.
Northwestern didn't flinch, though. Down 40-36, Tydus Verhoeven sank a jumper, and Audige, Brooks Barnhizer and Ty Berry drilled threes to put NU back on top 47-43 — a lead it would not relinquish.
At 11-3 and 2-1 in the Big Ten, the Wildcats have a largely unblemished record thus far. In fact, if the season ended today, the 'Cats would finish ranked 56th in Kenpom rankings.
Instead, the 2022-23 campaign extends well into March. While Northwestern has shown flashes of being a tournament-caliber team, it has yet to consistently play efficiently on offense and defense.
"Are we perfect? No," Collins remarked postgame. "We can be ugly at times. But, I tell you what. Our team has a lot of heart. They're a really together group, and they love playing with each other and for each other."
With a road date with No. 15 Indiana on deck Saturday, Collins recognized a quick turnaround and a continued sense of urgency, one that will be maintained during a brutal conference stretch. While the rest of its season story has yet to be written, Northwestern provided a long-term building block by exorcising its orange demons on Wednesday night — a major stepping stone in returning to meaningful play in March.

Cast Down Sheep
By Father David Fisher
Jesus said: "I am the good shepherd."
The life of a shepherd in the ancient world was dirty, hard, and dangerous. Their work placed them on the margins of society. They were often youngest sons, unlikely to inherit land or livestock. So imagining God as a shepherd places Him among those whose significance society disregards.
And what about sheep? An article in Psychology Today reports findings from a study of sheep, challenging stereotypes of them as docile, obedient, and possessing little individuality: Sheep do care about their own lives and how they are treated and respond to similar situations in similar ways to humans. Nothing we've learned about sheep gives us a free pass to mistreat them based on myths about their "mindlessness." They are intelligent, complex, and feeling individuals.
Yet sheep remain vulnerable – not only to predators, but to being "cast down." If a sheep falls over, they have a very difficult time getting back up on their feet. Their legs will be flailing in the air; they may cry and bleat. More than likely though, the sheep will flail, be frightened and quiet, attempting to return to an upright position with little success. The sheep will eventually suffocate if not righted in time. This position is referred to as "cast down"
When a shepherd restores a cast down sheep, he gives it reassurance; he massages its legs to restore circulation; he turns the sheep over gently, all the while reassuring it with the shepherd's gentle touch and familiar voice. He lifts the sheep up and holds it close while it gains its equilibrium back.
David often used the words "cast down" in the Psalms. David had been a shepherd boy. Many of the Psalms were written during times of duress for David: enemies after him, his people disobedient, his own disobedience, wars, and so much more…David understood what it meant to be as a sheep cast down. When we feel as though we cannot get up from where we have managed to get ourselves stuck, we are cast down or feel this way.
God will us up when we invite Him to be our shepherd.

It is theorized that plants grown without pesticides could contain higher levels of antioxidants as a result of enhanced synthesis of active phytochemicals produced as a defense against biotic and abiotic stress. This study sought to determine whether organic red oranges (the 'Tarocco' cultivar, also known as blood oranges) have a higher phytochemical content (i.e., phenolics, anthocyanins, and ascorbic acid), total antioxidant activity, and in-vitro bioactivity than red oranges grown under integrated (non-organic) agricultural systems. Total phenolics were measured using Folin Ciocalteau assay, while total anthocyanins and ascorbic acid levels were measured by spectrophotometric and high-performance liquid chromatography analysis, respectively. Total antioxidant activity was measured by the ABTS.+ test.
Organically-grown oranges have significantly higher total levels of phenolics, total anthocyanins, and ascorbic acids than corresponding non-organic oranges. The organic orange extracts also had a higher total antioxidant activity than non-organic orange extracts. In addition, the results indicate that red oranges have a strong capacity to inhibit the production of conjugated diene containing lipids and free radicals in rat cardiomyocytes and differentiated Caco-2 cells, respectively. Statistically higher levels of antioxidant activity in both cell models were found in organically grown oranges as compared to those produced by integrated agricultural practices.


The panel provided many great tips and insights that we can incorporate into our ongoing local story pitching for our clients.
When pitching, sending a short email is best. Producers care most about getting the five W's rather than a press release or lengthy email. Many morning producers start work around midnight, making follow up calls difficult as their work schedule tends to be midnight to 8-9 a.m., making email the best form of communication. This further enhances why providing all the vital information upfront can be vital for booking a segment.
Producers are looking for upbeat stories, such as "National S'mores Day," which is on August 10. Morning producers are always looking for stories that are influential to the viewer, such as a story on cancer or an individual doing good in the community.
And most importantly – with local television, everything needs a local connection. Whether it is a local company, individual or event, this tie is crucial to providing a hook for why a local news affiliate should give up precious time to their viewers.
"Deer in the headlights," was a phrase used several times by the panelists to describe what can occur when clients are not prepared to do a live TV interview. As PR professionals, we can sometimes want to share our clients' message on as many avenues as possible, but it is also important to make sure that the client is capable of fitting that media outlet. Producers love seeing footage of experts from live interviews so they get a feel for what to expect.
Media training is an important part of the process we offer clients, and should not be underestimated. Having clients who are comfortable in the space and topic is an invaluable asset, and media training can be a great asset to help turn anyone into a TV-ready spokesperson.

Go Home on Time Day

[Originally published in The Age, 05 November 2020]
Lockdowns in Victoria have made job polarisations starker than in other states. Entire layers of workers, previously interacting in the flows of the daily commute, the morning coffee, dropping kids off at school, were suddenly pulled apart and isolated from each other. Connected only by the occasional masked 'hello' on the street.
Australians share the experience of fighting COVID adhering to strong public health measures. Europe has entered new lockdowns while Australia has just celebrated the first day without a case of community transmission in almost 5 months. But as Melbourne emerges from these lockdowns, we acknowledge this public health success has not come without immense sacrifices. Healthcare and other frontline and essential workers exposed themselves to the virus to help keep us safe. Hundreds of thousands of low-paid workers in customer-facing sectors were pulled off the job to stop the spread.
But COVID-era work sacrifices are not simply dependent on what industry you work in. It also matters on what work conditions people had coming into the pandemic, with those in insecure jobs the first to be discarded in the crisis.
The pandemic has shone a light on the growing scourge of insecure work. Around half of all employment in Australia has one or more dimensions of precarity including casual, temporary, part-time insufficient-hours work, self-employment. Precarious work contributed to the community spread of disease, such as in the private aged care system where widespread practices of multiple jobholding led to virus transmission between facilities.
Overnight, businesses and workers moved fast to implement new remote-working models to enable employees to work productively from home from March. Hundreds of thousands of private homes were transformed into workplaces. The year is ending and in Melbourne we haven't gone back to the office yet, and likely won't for some time. Public health orders, employer demand to reduce crisis-era labour costs, and workers' preferences means working from home will become a permanent feature of the new world of work. 81% of workers at home want to keep working from home in some capacity.
Relaxation of top-down workplace practices seems one silver lining of the new WFH regime, as employers are forced to shift their focus to output rather than presence. Employers could well learn people work better without others breathing down their necks.
It's true there's much to like about WFH. I've finally unpicked my blue-collar work ethic to white-collar work, understanding getting the best from your brain doesn't mean smashing it for 8 hours straight. I sometimes intersperse work with playing music, with the piano sitting next to my work desk.
However, as well as moving to Melbourne just in time for the lockdown, my neighbour started renovations – a months-long bespoke 'mate's job', no swift commercial job. Working life is waking abruptly to circular saws followed by endless days of a 'soothing downpour' of white noise through my headphones. It is sitting in my closet under a blanket doing radio interviews.
Needless to say, I'd like to return to an office – at least on those very loud days. There'll be Melbourne workers like me; home workers who want some hybrid between home and external office work. The opportunity to share workspaces with others.
People able to work from home are more likely to be professionals in permanent, full-time, and better paid work. In many ways, we have been protected from the worst health and economic impacts on workers. Though this doesn't mean high economic and social costs haven't been incurred by the WFH workforce. Risks and costs are mounting, including upfront and ongoing costs of running a home office, long work hours, income and job insecurity for employees with high caring demands, and the absence of national work, health and safety measures.
Australians' propensity to work excessive overtime could be accelerated by our new home workplaces. The ACTU found 40% of people working at home are doing more hours, and nearly all are not being compensated for them.
Keeping up with our jobs while confronting the constant anxiety of a global pandemic crisis has hurt many people's mental health. Half of those working from home report increased stress, depression and self-harm. UK research suggests we face a tsunami of musculoskeletal workplace injuries as workers make do with dining tables, coffee tables, and desks ill-designed for eight or more hours of work.
This is why we need a new system of workplace protections for workers facing increased isolation and the risk of work intensification. France introduced a law requiring employers implement software prohibiting emails from being sent outside office hours – this one I like!
But under current workplace laws, employees remain powerless to get out of the home and return to a formal workplace post-pandemic without a corresponding entitlement to return to the office.
As the recession deepens, millions of unemployed and insecure workers will continue to face great hardship. The fiscal costs of this mass displacement will be huge, but longer-run social costs – manifested in poverty, exclusion, despair, non-participation, declining health – will be even greater.
Working to build more secure labour markets is about reducing risks that major events don't hit the most vulnerable hardest. Job creating investment, quality public education and skills systems, income supports, and extending minimum labour standards like collective bargaining are critical to an inclusive post-COVID recovery.
The pandemic is our clarion call to create not just more jobs, but good quality jobs that reconnect millions to the experience of decent, ongoing work. Though we're fatigued, this is where the work really starts.

Oil wealth takes Islamic banking mainstream
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia: Rising oil wealth is lifting Islamic banking - banking that adheres to the laws of the Koran and its prohibition against charging interest - into the financial mainstream.
Big banks like Citigroup, HSBC and Deutsche Bank, as well as financial capitals like London, Tokyo and Hong Kong, are all going into the Islamic banking business. Today, an estimated 300 Islamic financial institutions hold at least $500 billion in assets, and deposits are increasing more than 10 percent each year.
In addition to Islamic loans, there are Islamic bonds, Islamic credit cards and even Islamic derivatives. Loans and bonds that conform to the Koran are already available in the United States. And Britain, Japan and Thailand are contemplating issuing Islamic bonds of their own.
In Islamic banking, financiers are required to share borrowers' risks, meaning that depositors are treated more like shareholders, earning a portion of profits. Financing deals resemble lease-to-own arrangements, layaway plans, joint purchase and sale agreements, or partnerships.
"This is an industry on its way from a niche industry to becoming a truly global industry," said Khawaja Mohammad Salman Younis, managing director of operations in Malaysia for Kuwait Finance House, one of the world's largest Islamic banks. "In the next three to five years you'll see Islamic banks coming out in Australia, China, Japan and other parts of the world."
The stampede into Islamic finance is mostly an effort to tap an estimated $1.5 trillion of funds sloshing around the Middle East, largely because of higher oil prices. While a lot of these petrodollars were parked in the United States, Britain and Switzerland before 9/11, bankers say many wealthy Arabs are investing closer to home, in part to avoid increased scrutiny. At the same time, many Middle Eastern investors are eager to get in on Asia's breakneck growth.
By some estimates, as much as $800 billion of Arab funds have moved from the United States and Europe to other regions. Those investments have helped spark an economic revival throughout the Muslim world at a time of increasing religious conservatism among Islam's 1.6 billion faithful.
The result is burgeoning demand for financial services that adhere to Islamic law, or Shariah.
"The middle class have the luxury of making these Islamic versus non-Islamic decisions," said Nordin Abdullah, who runs KasehDia, a firm in Kuala Lumpur that advises companies on how to comply with Shariah. "They're educated and have money."
Last year, Saudi Arabia's largest lender, National Commercial Bank, overhauled its entire retail business to make it Shariah-compliant. Tunisia and Morocco authorized their first Islamic banks this year.
And while the biggest Islamic banks are in the wealthy Gulf states, the most attractive potential markets are in Turkey and North Africa and among European Muslims. Indonesia, the most populous Muslim nation, with more than 190 million Muslims, is the mother lode.
Malaysia, a predominantly Muslim nation with a secular government and a fast-growing, export-driven economy, has emerged as a center for the industry's development. Here, even non-Muslims are taking advantage of a growing range of Islamic products offering competitive returns.
For instance, David Ong-Yeoh, a public relations executive tired of fretting over his adjustable rate mortgage's rising interest rate, refinanced to a 30-year fixed loan from an Islamic financial institution. Now, he pays regular installments that include a pre-determined profit margin for the bank.
"The terms are better than on conventional loans," Ong-Yeoh, 41, said.
Islamic finance also avoids practices prohibited under Shariah: Islamic bankers cannot receive or provide funds for anything involving alcohol, gambling, pornography, tobacco, weapons or pork.
Proponents of Islamic banking say that these are limits any socially conscious investor can support, Muslim or not. They also envision wider appeal for Islamic banking's ban on interest, which stems from a prohibition in the Koran against usury.
That is a view that has a long religious tradition. Charging high interest rates to lend money is repeatedly condemned in the Bible. The Greek philosopher Aristotle denounced it, the Romans limited it, and the early Christian church prohibited it.
Western theologians eventually distinguished interest from usury, and it was reintroduced to Christians and Muslims around the time of the Renaissance. But when Britain took advantage of Egypt's mounting foreign debt in 1875 to buy its stake in the Suez Canal and occupy the country, it generated a backlash against traditional banking in the Muslim world. The belief that all interest charges are unjust now underpins Islamic finance.
"It's about respecting the interests of the different parties, avoiding taking advantage of any situation of any counter-party and putting in place fair treatment," said Rasheed Mohammed Al-Maraj, governor of the central bank of Bahrain.
Hoarding is frowned on in the Koran, so savings earn no return unless put to productive use. "Money should be used for creating better value in the country or the economy," explained Rasheed. "Money cannot generate money."
Islamic banks cannot simply trade money either. "In the Islamic finance model, the banks are supposed to mobilize funds through a fund management concept," said Rafe Haneef, head of Islamic banking in Asia for Citigroup.
Indeed, Islamic banking is supposed to function more like private equity firms than conventional banking. "Private equity is an Islamic concept," Rafe said.
Industry proponents say that this risk-sharing requirement helps reduce the kind of abuses that led to the subprime mortgage mess. Scholars consider it un-Islamic to overload a customer with debt or invest in a company with excessive debt.
But this approach has inherent problems. Because Islamic financial transactions must have an underlying asset, Islamic bankers tend to have high exposure to real estate and construction projects. Hedging that exposure is difficult - though Islamic derivatives exist, scholars differ on whether they are permissible under the Koran.
"There's a general acceptance that risk needs to be managed and therefore some form of financial instrument needs to be developed," said Zeti Akhtar Aziz, governor of the Malaysian central bank. But "in Islamic finance you can't have such securities," he added. "We need to be able to look at some of the issues that revolve around this."
Islamic financial institutions have to depend on their own boards of Shariah scholars to approve every product. Shariah scholars are rare, and those with financial understanding even rarer, so many scholars sit on several boards, earning up to $100,000 in retainers.
"If they're complaining there is a shortage, what are they doing to solve this problem?" asked Sheikh Nizam Yaquby, a scholar based in Bahrain who sits on the boards of Citigroup, AIG and HSBC, among others. He noted that Shariah scholars still earn less than accountants or corporate lawyers.
As part of longstanding efforts to develop the industry, Malaysia has created scholarships and training programs. The father of governor Zeti, Ungku Abdul Aziz, established the first modern Islamic financial institution, Tabung Haji, in 1962 to help poor Malays finance pilgrimages to Mecca and to mobilize rural savings.
Later, the Malaysian government set up Islamic banks as part of a platform to promote national development and blunt the appeal of fundamentalist Islamic political rivals.
In early 2001, the government began offering tax incentives aimed at converting at least a fifth of the nation's assets to Islamic finance by 2010. (Currently, they comprise about 12 percent.)
With China siphoning away some economic opportunities from Malaysia, Islamic finance has become part of a broader effort to lure tourism, trade and investment from the Middle East.
"We are trying to position ourselves as being acceptable to the Middle East, to petrodollars," said Wong Fook-Wah, chief executive of RAM Rating Services in Kuala Lumpur. "Hopefully they'll fund economic growth in Malaysia."
Clearly, faith is not the only thing driving the market. At Kuwait Finance House's Malaysian unit, Younis said that 40 percent of the depositors and 60 percent of the borrowers are non-Muslims.
"We look at these things just like Apple or Berkshire Hathaway," said Elene Kee, a Buddhist corporate lawyer in Kuala Lumpur who advises clients to use Islamic loans to finance construction projects.
Ong-Yeoh feels the same. "It's just taking advantage of the system," he said. After taking out an Islamic loan for his home, he took another for his car. - (IHT, 21 Nov 07)

The family of Leeroy Mitchell, 35, who was shot dead in Croydon on October 2 have paid tribute to his memory and urged his killer to turn themselves in.
Leroy, who had three children is believed to have been attacked after attending a silent disco event at an address in Birdhurst Road.
Despite the efforts of the London Ambulance Service, Leroy was pronounced dead at the scene.
READ MORE: Dad, 35, shot dead at silent disco was 'ripped away' from his three children
A post-mortem examination gave the cause of death as shotgun wounds to the head.
A 25-year-old man was arrested and released on bail to return to a south London police station.
In an open letter, one of Leeroy's grandparents has reiterated the loss their family feels in his absence.
They said: "To the people responsible for the death of my son.
"Let me tell you about the man you have taken away from me.
"Leroy Martin Mitchell was born in 1986 in Croydon to his mother Maura and father Ronald. Leroy was a cheeky child, and we loved him for it.
"Even as he grew older, he was always sporting a cheeky grin and trying to play tricks on me – which I would always end up laughing with him about.
Leeroy's family want answers
"Everyone remembers Leroy with a smile on his face, and his dimples showing.
"Leroy was a central part of our family, and in the weeks before Leroy passed, he was planning to get everyone together. Siblings, cousins, family and friends - Leroy loved us to all be close.
"Leroy fell in love with his fiancée Louise after they met in 2004. When he died, they had been together for 17 years, and Leroy had three sweet children who we call his 'mini-me's'.
"Leroy had picked up an interest in fishing. He and his friends would go to Norwood Lakes for the afternoon, but they'd always end up talking deep in to the night, sharing stories and, occasionally, catching a fish or two.
"On Monday last week, I held a funeral for the man I describe in this letter - my own son. I cannot believe that, this Christmas and every Christmas after this, my family will be without one of their most valued members, and my grandchildren will be without their father.

"I want to direct this message to whoever is responsible for killing my son: You know who you are. You have broken dozens of people's hearts. Your actions have left a mark on my entire family."
"To the Croydon community, and anyone who has information about what happened to my son
"Whilst the person or people responsible for Leroy's death are free, there should be no silence on the streets.
"Please read my letter. Please think about coming forward."

Christian Wolff House
Printing House
Castle of Giebichenstein
Seebener Straße 1
"Hausmannstürme"
Welcome to the City Museum Halle
1200-year history of the city, that is located on the river Saale, revives inside of two permanent exhibitions at the City Museum of Halle: "Discover Halle" and "Sociability and the freedom to philosophize".
The history of the building goes back into its use as a professor's residential house up until the industrial age. After the death of the landlord, philosopher Christian Wolff (1679-1754), his residential house was turned into a printing and publishing house with its own printing presses. Typing, printing, and stitching were performed here until 1992.
There are three other historical places to visit belonging to the museum: The Red Tower, the "Hausmanntürme" and the Castle of Giebichenstein. For more informations see the end of this page.
Stadtmuseum Halle (Saale)
Tuesday – Sunday 10 am – 5 pm
Closed on Monday
++49 345 2213030
Discover Halle!
The permanent exhibition "Discover Halle!" is dedicated to the history of the city. Let's Discover Halle! with a help of its objects: the former export hit "Made in Halle", objects from all across the globe that found their way into the city on the river Saale, as well as the historically significant items from the personal environment of city's public figures that shed light on different facets of the urban development. Children and families discover the world of the museum by the means of the three-dimensional and interactive elements, such as an auditory and olfactory station, special display cases for children and items, you can touch.
Sociability and the freedom to philosophize
The second permanent exhibition is linked to the statement of Christian Wolff, "Sociability and the freedom to philosophize. Halle during the Enlightenment" and loosely dedicated to the social life of the 18th century. Thus, a prominent sleigh, as a contemporary witness, narrates a story about what a bad ending could have the students' sleigh ride in the winter. Or you can learn about the exciting story hidden behind a lady's portrait.
Christian Wolff purchased the estate in 1740, right after his triumphant return to Halle. Up until his death, it remained a centre of philosophy and sciences. His audience chamber is decorated with unique linen tapestries, which presents the story of Samson, according to the canons of baroque biblical imagery, thus they testify to the splendour of the bourgeois professorial house.
Finish your journey back into the age of Early Enlightenment inside of Christian Wolff's former auditorium. Here, the landlord held his scientific lectures to his (at that time only male) students in the German language. In the German language – a novelty at the time!
The Red Tower
Combine your visit to the city on the river Saale with a stair climb to the top of the Red Tower (Roter Turm) on the marketplace (Marktplatz). Enjoy the view over the imposing marketplace and marvel at Europe's biggest tower carillon.
Stair climb is only possible as the part of a guided tour. Guided tours: Monday, Wednesday, Friday at 5 pm, Saturday, Sunday, holidays at 2 pm.
The "Hausmannstürme" are two of four towers of the Market Church. They form the eastern end of the church, directly located on Market Square.
Through the entrance in the north tower and via a connecting room you reach after 226 steps the watchman's accommodation in the south tower. From here you reach the connecting bridge of the two towers. High up you can enjoy a panoramic view in all directions to far beyond the borders of the city of Halle - the deserved reward for the difficult climb.
Opening hours: Saturday and Sunday 10 am - 3 pm
Guided tours: Monday, Wednesday, Friday 4 pm

The Castle of Giebichenstein
The Castle of Giebichenstein ist located directly on the bank of the river Saale near to the "Kröllwitz" Bridge.
Giebichenstein is one of the oldest areas of settlement within the city of Halle. Since the early 9th century it has been part of the Frankish Kingdom. The salt production in the Wittekind valley, the strategic position on the cliff at a river crossing, and the close proximity to trade routes made this location ideal for building of a castle. In 961 Holy Roman Emperor Otto I gave the settlement to the St. Mauritius monastery of Magdeburg (Moritzkloster). With the foundation of the archdiocese of Magdeburg in 968 Giebichenstein went into the ownership of the archbishops. The castle was first documented in the 10th century as Castle 'Giuicansten'. The name 'Old Castle' has been used for the complex on the grounds of the Amtsgarten since the 17th century. However, there are no visible remains of the 'Old Castle' left today.
The Upper Castle
Research excavations and reconstructions provide evidence that the Upper Castle was built as a representative castle complex in the 12th/13th century. During the second half of the 12th century the main role was increasingly transferred from the 'Old Castle' to the newly constructed castle. The steep ascent to the Upper Castle, the narrow passageway of the gate tower, as well as the existing architecture and fortification on the cliff made outbuildings necessary. This function could well still have fallen to the 'Old Castle'. The oldest parts of the Upper Castle are the northern curtain wall, the keep, the great hall, the castle chapel, the cobbled courtyard, and the substructure of the gate tower. The castle complex had been added to during the following two centuries. The excavated remnants of the great hall and keep with columns and fireplaces illustrate the castle's function as the residence and administrative seat of the archbishops of Magdeburg. Since the late 14th century, it has been their main residence for their role as landlords of Halle. The Upper Castle was also a customs house and mint.
The Lower Giebichenstein Castle has been home to today's University of Art and Design since 1921. After research excavations the Upper Castle was opened to the public as a museum of architecture in 1966.

Is there a chemical in our brains that makes us trust others? And what determines when this does – or doesn't – happen? Decades of research into the neuroscience of trust have answered some of these essential questions – and understanding it all can help you become a trusted expert on trust.
Considering the results of two recent global surveys on how organizational trust impacts employees and the organization, the neuroscience of trust is something every leader should understand.
Let's start with the most basic. The brain chemical oxytocin is our brain's way of signaling trust. Neuroeconomist Paul Zak at Claremont Graduate University has led some fascinating experiments to prove that oxytocin is the brain's trust chemical. In his experiments, the amount of oxytocin produced predicted both how much the participants trusted others and how trustworthy they were.
To prove that it wasn't due to some other chemical or hormone, Zak and his team did another round of experiments in which they injected participants with synthetic oxytocin – and, sure enough, oxytocin was the cause: It significantly reduced the fear of trusting strangers.
We all have a sense that yeah, trust is probably kind of important to have at home and at work. But according to two recent global surveys of workplace culture, it turns out trust is nothing short of a game changer, for the organization and its employees. The following data on employees at high trust companies is from the research of Paul Zak, as outlined in his new book, Trust Factor: The Science of Creating High-Performance Companies.
But, it turns out, there isn't exactly consensus on what level of trust exists at a given company. One of the most fascinating findings of Six Seconds' global workplace survey is that leaders tend to overestimate trust. When asked to score the phrase, "Leaders here are sincere," which is highly correlated with trust, senior managers' average answer was 21% higher than the average for front line employees. Uh oh.
Is your organization doing enough to cultivate trust?
Remember you can get our latest white paper, The Neuroscience of Trust, and accompanying slides with speaker notes, by clicking on the button below.
That 21% trust gap between senior leaders and front line workers is only one of many fascinating findings from Six Seconds' global survey of over 1600 employees worldwide. It offers new insights into people and what drives performance. Get the full report today for free by clicking on the download button below.
Always interested in the relentless pursuit of the Competive edge.
Look forward to reading your work in contrast to others i.e. Lou Tice from Pacific Institute.
What are "the two recent global surveys of workplace culture" for the stats you cite re: employees at high trust companies?
Hi, George. I apologize that the two sources were not very clear. I have now made it clearer in the article. The first statistics are from Paul Zak's research as outlined in his book, Trust Factor. The data below that on the trust gap comes from Six Seconds' global workplace survey, and that can be found in the hyperlink in the article. Thanks for reading!
Great news! Now we have scientific data to drive the construction of trust! I believe we are naturally "truster" but in many ways our culture creates a belief that "the other" is not to be trusted! "Do not trust the unknown!" And more over we create companies that trusts the culture of the self super man and women. We need to create cultures where the unknown is attractive and where the team/group work are recognized instead of the individual one!

There's a misconception about bodybuilding – that it's for thoughtless brutes who aren't smart. That's simply not true. There's a science to bodybuilding and strength training that goes beyond the weight room, beyond the supplement aisle at the health store.
Insightful philosophies, eye-opening personal stories, and groundbreaking techniques can be found in bodybuilding books. Here are the Top 10 Books about bodybuilding.
Mark Lauren made a name for himself by training US Special Forces, competing in Muay Thai kickboxing and holding the DOD's record for swimming underwater for 133 meters on just one breath. He's the unofficial expert on bodyweight exercises and his book You Are Your Own Gym is a must-have for bodybuilders.
This book contains 125 bodyweight exercises that you can do without a gym fee. Some people might doubt that you can have big gains with bodyweight exercises, but this book clarifies the purpose of bodyweight strength-training and takes you beyond simple push-ups and chin-ups.
One of the best things about You Are Your Own Gym: The Bible of Bodyweight Exercises is that every skill level can find useful information inside. The exercises are broken down in categories: Basic, 1st Class, Master Class and Chief Class.
This step-by-step guide to building strength was a joint effort by experts with the British Weight Lifting Association (BWLA). You benefit from getting multiple viewpoints, techniques and strategies all in the same volume. There are 256 pages of thorough exercise demonstrations with full color illustrations throughout.
They don't just show you exercises, the experts who compiled this manual give you tips, tricks, and adaptations to take your strength training regimen even further. Strength Training is a book you can take with you to the gym because most of the exercises are on a single page and the entire book opens flat, so you can see every detail clearly.
There is a special emphasis on building an aesthetic physique, as well. So, if you want 8-pack abs or high-arching lats, then this is the bodybuilding book for you.
Before there was Arnold, there was Steve Reeves. Steve Reeves is the old school bodybuilder that set the standard for what a strong, natural, masculine physique should look like. His physical measurements were the gold standard for decades. His book is aptly titled – Building the Classic Physique – The Natural Way.
Beginners will find this book interesting, but it's better served in the hands of someone who has been bodybuilding for at least a full year. There is a wealth of advice in this book that has become common knowledge among contemporary bodybuilders, but you must consider the fact that Steve Reeves originated many of these concepts – like the amount of repetitions and sets, the amount of weight you should lift to max out, and nutritional guides specific for lifters.
This isn't much of a manual for individual exercise, but a wonderful reference, confidence builder, and show piece.
This is not a book for novice bodybuilders. Even professional bodybuilders might need the help of a medical professional or a highly-proficient personal trainer to decipher all the scientific knowledge that is contained in this text.
Dr. Frederick C. Hatfield was a world champion powerlifter and held his PHD in sport science. He was also the co-founder of the International Sports Sciences Association (ISSA) – the governing body that certifies personal trainers. This book is nearly 400 pages and has detailed charts for exercises, anatomy, nutrition, scheduling, the whole works. This is the book you reach for when that pesky guy at the gym thinks he knows everything about squats.
Bodybuilding: A Scientific Approach can help you as the definitive reference guide for bodybuilding. Find out why you're hitting a plateau, compare free weights to machines, find the best sources for more natural protein, all backed up by scientific research.
You wanna gain muscle mass? Then, this is the book for you. You wanna learn every variation of the bench press. Then, get your hands on this book. Jim Stoppani is covered in tattoos, but he also holds a doctorate in exercise physiology, he's a celebrity personal trainer and he's responsible for most of the actionable content from Muscle & Fitness and STACK magazines.
His Encyclopaedia of Muscle & Strength is a bodybuilder's best friend. Stoppani's book shows you how to use literally every single piece of equipment in a standard weight training gym and empowers you to customize your own training regimen based on your specific bodybuilding goals.
There're over 115 training programs inside this book that you can remix and tweak on your own. Dr. Stoppani is an expert in nutrition and supplements so there's an entire section of this book dedicated to burning fat and building muscle through the nutrients you take into your body.
If you're looking to build a collection of bodybuilding books, then Schwarzenegger's The New Encyclopaedia of Modern Bodybuilding simply must become a part of your library. It's the most popular book about bodybuilding, and it's actually quite insightful to the sport of bodybuilding.
Perhaps because it's written by Arnold Schwarzenegger (a huge celebrity), this book has a polarizing effect on the strength-training community. You either love it or you hate it.
Some people find the training routines to be specifically for steroid abusers and of little use to natural lifters. Controversy aside, Schwarzenegger's bible of bodybuilding contains useful information about competitive bodybuilding, sculpting the ideal physique and mitigating sport-related injuries.
You also get Arnold's tips, tricks and motivational monologues peppered throughout the entire volume of this massive 800-page tome.
Beginners who are interested in learning more about weightlifting history and veterans who want a point of comparison will find this book useful, and it certainly makes for a great conversation starter near the plate rack.
This book is aimed at bodybuilding athletes who want to take their strength training to the next level and bulk up to beast mode. It was written by Charles Poliquin, who was a Canadian trainer for the nation's Olympic powerlifting team and several NHL teams.
The Poliquin Principles focuses specifically on muscular hypertrophy, a form of training that produces massive muscle growth, not necessarily muscular strength.
If physique is your main bodybuilding goal, then the information in this book will be of significant use to you. This book was first written in 1997 and some of the information and the layout of the exercise illustrations are understandably a bit dated.
However, the knowledge is sound. It's just specifically geared to a certain type of weightlifter – one who is willing to train with intense exercise variations, vein-popping super sets and delve into near-madness to achieve godlike gains.
Considered the antithesis of Arnold Schwarzenegger's bodybuilding book, Mike Mentzer's training guide is all about high intensity interval training or HIT. The Mike Mentzer Way burns more calories, burns more fat, and boosts oxygen levels in a shorter amount of time than traditional weight lifting techniques. Mike Mentzer might be on to something here.
After all, he was the first man to receive a perfect score in the Mr. Universe competition. The techniques in this book are certainly different. Mentzer encourages you to take shorter, more intense repetitions and longer periods of rest. One highlight of the book is that Mentzer provides alternate exercises if the one he has prescribed is beyond your skill level.
This book mainly contains philosophies and exercise routines for the advanced bodybuilder who wants maximum size and strength in the least amount of time, someone who is willing to thumb their nose at conventional wisdom and try something different.
Mike Mentzer might owe most of his gains to phenomenal genetics, but his HIT method is worth trying out if you want to break through a plateau or push yourself to the limits.
The cover of this book might already be grafted onto your subconscious because it's the number one best-selling bodybuilding books on the market. The goal of Bigger, Leaner, Stronger is to eliminate misconceptions and unnecessary techniques that surround your strength-training and fitness goals. Michael Matthews is anti-super set, anti-supplement, and anti-cardio.
This book focuses on a handful of bodybuilding exercises that when done properly will show phenomenal results in record time. It talks about self-discipline yet doesn't believe in restricting your diet. Matthews encourages you to throw away your supplements, only to offer you his own brand of supplements in the last chapter of the book.
In fact, this book is all about the sale. Bigger, Leaner, Stronger promises that you can have it all for less than you think, but rarely rises above the general bodybuilding knowledge that can be found in other books.
The saving grace of this book is that it takes away all the guesswork of bodybuilding and streamlines every aspect of the process.
Here's a bodybuilding best-seller that combines 600+ amazing illustrations, timeless strength-building advice, and tons of gym exercises, all in the same place.
If this book had more bodybuilding information, then it would be a university textbook. Strength Training Anatomy is for the thinking weightlifter who wants to delve into the mechanics of bodybuilding in order to pluck out some true gems of strength-building knowledge. There is an emphasis on free weight exercises in this book.
So, if you were looking for Smith machine techniques, then you'll be disappointed. That's the only reason this book doesn't rank higher on the list of the 10 best bodybuilding books. Delavier's writing style is clear and concise.
The book is laid out and arranged according to body part. So, if you have a special desire to get that rounded curve on the short head bicep muscle, you can easily find that muscle group and plenty of exercises that will help you receive the desired result.

"I love you, yes, I am the one."
Pedro Salinas (1891–1951) was a major Spanish poet, scholar, and literary critic who taught extensively in Europe and the United States. He is the author of nine books of poems, as well as a novel, short stories, plays, essays, and criticism. In fact few modern poets have so discerningly employed the external data of our experience as transformed through the emotions and imagination. For Salinas, "Telegraph wires carry kisses". He is by turns playful, ironic, sentimental, and despairing , leading us through love's sense of amazement.
When Pedro Salinas's 1933 collection of love poems, My Voice Because of You, was introduced to American audiences in Willis Barnstone's 1975 English translation, it was widely regarded as the greatest sequence of love poems written by a man or a woman, in any language, in the twentieth century. Now, seventy-five years after its publication, the reputation of the poems and its multifaceted writer remains untarnished.
The poet's search for a "Transreality" or "Transworld" (a kind of "world behind the world" that he calls transmudo) is a subject frequently discussed pertaining to poetry of Pedro Salinas. May be it refers to his capacity to extract from the things of the world another possible intimate reality, invisible (or unreal) to the common sense , but clear and very true to the poetic sensibility. A frequently repeated theme in Salinas's work is the need to avoid names and to "live in pronouns" . The generally accepted explanation on the emphasis of pronouns is that linguistically Salinas is attempting to convey his search for the "Transrealty " of the objects and people in the world . Pronouns substitute for more carnal words and thus have a transcendental value. The pronouns can also be a refuge- a way for the poet to liberate himself from names , which is often related to the body. It therefore represents the freedom of anonymity. It can also be argued as symbolic of the soul.
" Pronouns, the skeletal grammatical word. The ingenious poet uses them with irony. Are the pronouns, I, you , metaphysical entities! The monosyllabic condensations reveal the lovers' profound essence that always exist. The lover says with the greatest simplicity: I want you.
It is love that discloses- and creates- the two lovers. A new I wants to become a new you. I,you : the relationship of all lovers , which in this instance acquires extraordinary height and depth.
The chimera of platonic perfection is not sought here. Rather what is longed for is the most profound, secret you that love can reveal and exalt, as the love were dreamt in the " pure , unmoving center in you" . This moment of ecstatic claim implies a now unreal hyperbole of the quest that no single plenitude or intoxication can satisfy. It is the extreme Beyond of great demanding love. "

Q: Understanding CryptoCompare streamer data I am learning to work with WebSockets (in Java-Android) and I get the following response from the CryptoCompare server:

Here's their utility page (I only need to work with CCC.CURRENT). Can someone help me understand how to read this? How can I tell which field is where. Here's a link to their Api Doc.
The utility page uses hex and fields. For example ..
price = 0x1
last_update = 0x8

Now, how do I use this info!?
Thank you in advance!

A: (Edited since you want to do this in Java, not JS)
(Edited again since you clarified the question.)
The code that packs the data is this:
var mask = 0;
var packedCurrent ='';
for(var property in this.FIELDS)
{
    if(currentObject.hasOwnProperty(property)){
        packedCurrent += '~'+currentObject[property];
        mask|=this.FIELDS[property];
    }
}
//removing first character beacsue it is a ~
return packedCurrent.substr(1)+'~'+mask.toString(16);

So we can see that there is a mask that starts at zero, and bits are being set if the property is being sent.  You'll need to get comfortable with doing bit-masking in Java for this.
The properties are being added to the string in the order set in CCC.CURRENT.FIELDS.
So you can go through the mask in the order of the items in FIELDS (PRICE, then BID, then OFFER...).  Each time you find a 1, chop off the first part of the string (up to the ~) and parse it according to the type that you've found.


Okay, so I downloaded ubuntu and used unetbootin to load it up on my hard disc. I now can either select unebootin or windows at my bootloader, which was my intention.
I just don't know how to permanently install ubuntu while I have the OS running.
If you look closely, you can see that the installer is warning you that you are loading from the hard disk partition sda3 and you will not be able to install it into the same.
If you provide a LiveCD iso file, such as the Ubuntu desktop iso, to UNetbootin and use the hard disk install mode, the resulting install will NOT be a full, standard hard drive installation. Rather, you are simply booting into the live environment, the same way as if you had booted from a live CD or a live USB, except it's being loaded from your hard disk instead. This is often referred to as a "frugal install", as it doesn't install a dedicated bootloader and doesn't make a separate partition, but rather piggybacks off the existing OS's bootloader and installs the files for the live environment inside the existing partition.
You have to use a USB drive and make it bootable using unetbootin, and then boot from that USB drive and install the OS onto your hard disk.
You must set up your partitions before going into the hard disk installer. Once you've set up your Ubuntu partition you can install Ubuntu with the installer by selecting and formatting that partition.
