Evolving Visions and
Sanctum Sanctorum
by Numina
Visit Numina's website
Numina, nee Jesse Sola, released two of the best CD's of 2001 - "Evolving Visions" and "Sanctum Sanctorum." He has his next CD almost ready. It is titled "Sanctuary of Dreams" and it smokes!
The two discs from 2001 are very atmospheric and minimalist. This CD has those qualities and a little more. Jesse layers his walls of sound so that the soundscape is evolving and fading continuously. The effect is reminiscent of a Frippertronics loop. The possibilities become endless. Those layers have a sequenced timbre to them, though they are not sequences. That timbre gives the CD some extra oomph!
So the disc kicks in and takes focused listeners to their private sanctuaries. Within those havens, deep listeners find the healing power of self-help and support.
That, too, is an endless journey and a constant loop so the metaphor continues. Jesse has very quickly established himself as a candidate for ambient greatness! This disc locks it!
The Resonant Memory of the Earth
Visit Max Corbacho's website
Max Corbacho's first two CD's made strong impressions in the ambient community. Each one defined Max's talent in its own special way. "The Resonant Memory of the Earth" defines the next level for Max.
This is a very deep and vast atmospheric effort. No, it is not an effort, it is a success! Max uses the best elements from "Vestiges" and "Far from the Immobile Point." And adds a subtle - yet vital - drone. The result is spine-tingling and chilling.
Max has been defining feelings of being on the fringe, of not quite having a foothold. His titles examine the angst and frustration of unrequited efforts. The progression of the titles is revealing in and of itself. "Vestiges" points to the leftovers or traces of what once was or has never been. "Far from the Immobile Point" relates to being frozen in the fear of isolation. Listeners went beyond isolation into nothingness. "The Resonant Memory of the Earth" speaks to the last traces of remote recollections of what was once the dream or the promise of a reward.
The music conveys feelings of regret, frustration, anxiety and even anger. There is a distinct and noticeable growth in Max's composition, performance and intuition. It is, by far, his best effort. Listeners and fans hope it is also his greatest success!

Lana Clarkson Beyond the Sword and Sorcery
continued from part 1, Lana Clarkson the Barbarian Queen
Lana Clarkson had several small roles throughout her Hollywood career. While mostly remembered for her roles in Deathstalker and Barbarian Queen (and it's straight to video sequel), she had a much longer career than that. Her first speaking role was in the coming of age classic Fast Times of Ridgemont High. She also had bit roles in television series such as Happy Days, Wings, and Silk Stalkings, as well as roles in movies as diverse as Scarface and Amazon Women on the Moon. At six foot high she was the embodiment of the blonde goddess, and while never making the "A" list, she was constantly working.
She was also a kind and loving soul. In the 1980s when fear of Aids was epidemic, she began volunteering with Project Angelfood, delivering food to those disabled by HIV, Aids, cancer, and other life threatening illnesses. According to her website she continued her involvement throughout her career and life. This alone makes her life worth celebrating, and eclipses her fame. It also lays to rest any assertion that she was no more than a pretty face, and was far from a blonde bimbo.
The Sad and Tragic Death of Lana Clarkson
In the 2001, Lana developed, wrote and produced a showcase reel called "Lana Unleashed." It was meant to showcase her comedic talents, and hopefully open a new career path as a comedic actress. To help finance her new career path, she took odd jobs including working for the House of Blues in Los Angeles. It was here, on a fateful night in 2003, that she met Phil Spector. Reportedly she first mistook the weird little man as a woman, but was corrected by the club management and told to "treat him like gold." Apparently Spector took a liking to Lana and persuaded to join him at his home for a nightcap. According to his chauffeur for the night, Spector had been drinking heavily all night.
Early in the morning of Feb 3, 2009, Spector reportedly walked out of his mansion, up to his limousine and told his driver "I think I killed someone." Inside his mansion, Lana Clarkson, the beautiful blonde starlet, the person kind enough to volunteer her time to the sick and dying, the actress who adored her fans, and posted to her website weekly, lay slumped in a chair, dead from a single bullet to the face.
The little man who killed Lana Clarkson claimed it was "accidental suicide" and that she had "kissed the gun." The defense, and David Mamet, in his fantasy bio pic "Phil Spector" for HBO, claimed she was depressed, and suicidal over turning 40, and her failed career. Her family, and her fans don't buy that crap. Lana was turning a new page in her career. Experts agree people rarely commit suicide spur of the moment, and Lana was posting on her web site right up till the end.
Phil Spector however, had a history of waving guns in the face of young women, while under the influence of alcohol and medication. One woman described it as an accident waiting to happen. If asked my personal opinion, and based on accounts from other women, I believe that Spector, drunk from a night of binge drinking, high on prescription drugs, killed Lana Clarkson in a drunken rage, when she refused his sexual advances. Then realizing what he did resulted in his confession of sorts to his driver.
No one will ever know exactly what happened there except Phil Spector. But one thing that her family and fans agree upon, was that she was not the depressed, washed up, B movie actress that Spector apologists are trying to paint her. Working as a bouncer at the Hard Rock doesn't demean her in my eyes, but just shows that she was willing to work, even at menial jobs, in order to survive and succeed. I will never believe that she took her own life, even as an accident. Maybe Spector didn't. purposely shoot her, but he bears the weight of her death. It was his gun, he pulled it, and most agree, he pulled the trigger.
Lana Clarkson is gone, taken way too soon, at way too early an age. The old adage, the candle that burns the brightest burns the shortest applies to Lana. While her career may never have been extremely bright, her life was. She gave back to her fans, and she gave to the sick and needy, who might never have heard her name. Phil Spector snuffed out that candle way too soon,and the world is a little darker without Lana Clarkson.

The city's program to spay and neuter dogs for free should be back in business soon, thanks to a $1 million infusion of cash from the state.
The Animal Care and Control recently canceled its popular "Big Fix" program for low-income residents after funds dried up.
But Assemblyman Pete Grannis said he was surprised at the news, since the state had already come up with almost $1 million toward spaying and neutering animals belonging to people on public assistance.
At the request of the state's Agriculture and Markets Department, the funds were being held up for a year, he said.
City and state officials are now negotiating the release of the cash, said Ed Boks, director of the Animal Care and Control.
The money will be available to New York City residents starting Oct. 15, said Jessica Chittenden, spokeswoman for the state Department of Agriculture and Markets.
Spaying and neutering is considered crucial to end the city's tragic pet overpopulation problem.
Thousands of healthy, friendly dogs and cats are killed each year in city shelters because they can't find homes.
To meet their ambitious goal of ending the killing in the next five years, animal-welfare advocates estimate they must provide 50,000 free or low-cost spays and neuters yearly.
Before the cancellation, the Big Fix and ASPCA together were performing 14,000 of the surgeries.

Q: How do I make an ArrayBuffer immutable in Javascript? How do I make the content of an ArrayBuffer immutable in Javascript? The Object.freeze() method does not seem to be working. Is there any method to achieve it? Would it be even possible?

A: You can convert the ArrayBuffer to an immutable string as a data URI defined using const
const reader = new FileReader;

reader.onload = () => { const ab = reader.result // `ab` cannot be changed }

reader.readAsDataURL(new ArrayBuffer(123));

House panel seeks probe of contractor data calls
By Derek B. Johnson
The House Committee on Energy and Commerce sent a letter to Government Accountability Office Comptroller General Gene Dodaro Sept. 27 asking the GAO to look into how the Department of Energy is handling requests for data from contractors.
The letter, signed by four Republicans and four Democrats, pointed to language in the April 2014 Augustine-Mies Commission report on governance of the nuclear security enterprise which said that "dysfunctional relationships between the government and its Management and Operating (M&O) site operators has encouraged burdensome transactional oversight rather than management focus on mission execution."
Along those lines, the committee members expressed concern that the DOE and its sub-agency the National Nuclear Security Administration may be overloading contractors with data calls, wherein government program managers will ask for updates on projects or programs and request that a contractor pull and send a certain amount of data.
Alan Chvotkin, executive vice president and counsel for the Professional Services Council, said there are two main types of data calls: those required by contract and "unique" data calls, a single instance request for specialized information. While the time, effort and costs of data calls can vary wildly, it is often the unique requests that can create the biggest burdens for contractors.
"Depending on the nature of the request, they can be simple and not very costly or enormously expensive," said Chvotkin.
The committee asked the GAO to look into Energy and NNSA policies and practices around how they conduct data calls, whether the information requested is typically routine in nature, what sources of data are used by contractors and how capable current federal enterprise software systems of capturing this type of data.
"[Contractors] have designed and produced every nuclear warhead in the U.S. arsenal, and play critical roles in DOE'S environmental, energy, and nuclear security missions," the members wrote. "Because of this reliance on contractors, efficient and constructive DOE-contractor relationships are critical in enabling DOE's ability to drive performance improvements and ensure value for the U.S. taxpayer."
When reached for comment, Chuck Young, GAO's managing director for public, confirmed the agency received the request and it is currently being reviewed, a process that typically takes 2-3 weeks. Young said he did not know whether any specific event or complaint may have prompted the committee to send the request.

El título de Correo Mayor fue un cargo introducido por el rey Felipe I con el fin de organizar, administrar y promover el servicio de correo en los territorios del reino y, posteriormente, con otros reinos y naciones. En el dominio de la Monarquía Hispánica este oficio fue ejercido principalmente entre los siglos XVI y XVII, bajo el reinado de los Austrias.

Los trece portadores de este título fueron los precursores del servicio postal en España, y los once primeros pertenecieron a dos grandes familias: los Tassis y los Vélez de Guevara, familias que llegaron a controlar el monopolio postal en sus respectivas épocas.

Historia

Francisco de Tassis, fundador del correo en España

Felipe I el Hermoso otorgó, el 18 de enero de 1505, el cargo de Correo Mayor de Castilla al empresario de origen lombardo Francisco de Tassis, con el fin de organizar el transporte de la correspondencia entre las diferentes cortes del Imperio: España, los Países Bajos, Austria e Italia. Francisco de Tassis ya servía con semejantes fines desde 1490 en la corte del rey Maximiliano I del Sacro Imperio y desde 1501 para el mismo Felipe I en los Países Bajos.

La empresa establecida por Francisco de Tassis se basaba en la existencia de correos a caballo y de correos mayores: los primeros transportaban la correspondencia con un sistema de relevos entre las ciudades, los segundos administraban las postas y trataban de establecer sólidas alianzas. Sobre la base de este sistema, y la transmisión a sus herederos del cargo de Correo Mayor, la familia Tassis desarrolló un verdadero monopolio de alianzas y rutas postales en toda Europa.

El Convenio Postal de 1516

El rey Carlos I mantiene al frente del negocio postal a Francisco de Tassis como Correo Mayor General (a quien venía ayudando su sobrino Simón desde 1506 en los territorios de Castilla) , el cual se compromete en el Contrato Postal del 12 de noviembre de 1516, junto con otro ayudante y sobrino Juan Bautista, a seguir prestando el servicio postal en el Imperio, mejorar las postas, ampliar las rutas y reducir el tiempo usado por los relevos. Con la muerte de Francisco de Tassis un año más tarde, Juan Bautista se convierte en su sucesor en el oficio junto con sus hermanos Mateo y el referido Simón, a los que les será concedido por el rey Carlos I el cargo de Correo Mayor y Maestro General de Postas. Los tres hermanos serán naturalizados españoles el 28 de agosto de 1518 por cédula emitida por la reina doña Juana y su hijo don Carlos. Juan Bautista será nombrado cabeza principal de dicho oficio, autorizándole a ejercer dicho cargo a su hermano Mateo por ausencia o muerte del primero y a Simón, por ausencia o muerte de los dos anteriores.

El monopolio de la familia Tassis

Juan Bautista ejerce el cargo pertinentemente, con la ayuda de sus hermanos Mateo, que será quien permanecerá todo el tiempo en España ejerciendo dichas funciones, y Simón, hoste de correos que se hará cargo de las oficinas postales de Roma y Milán. El cargo pasa posteriormente por sucesión familiar al hijo de Juan Bautista Raimundo de Tassis y después de éste a Juan de Tassis y Acuña, quien obtuvo del rey Felipe III el título noble de conde de Villamediana en 1603 por su buena gestión y su apoyo. En el período que estos dos últimos correos mayores pasan en el oficio, el servicio postal se fortalece y se convierte en un monopolio exclusivo de la familia Tassis.

A la muerte de Juan de Tassis y Acuña, el cargo pasa a su único hijo, don Juan de Tassis y Peralta, II conde de Villamediana, poeta y conocido cortesano que era famoso por sus dotes diplomáticas y por sus oscuros líos amorosos e intrigas palaciegas. Bajo el reinado de Felipe III, fue desterrado dos veces; ganándose nuevamente el favor real.

La casa de Vélez de Guevara

Al morir asesinado el II conde de Villamediana en 1622 sin descendencia, la familia Vélez de Guevara inicia un pleito por adquirir los títulos de éste. Íñigo Vélez de Guevara y Tassis, V conde consorte de Oñate, como primo hermano de Juan de Tassis y Peralta, consigue para su hijo Íñigo Vélez de Guevara el cargo de Correo Mayor así como el título de conde de Villamediana, ratificados por sentencia de 10 de marzo de 1623. De esta manera el título pasa a los condes de Oñate en la persona del referido Íñigo Vélez de Guevara como VIII conde de Oñate (los VI y VII condes fueron sus hermanos Pedro y Juan, respectivamente, muertos con anterioridad), III conde de Villamediana y Correo Mayor General de España.

Es así como la casa de Vélez de Guevara se alza con el monopolio del correo en España desde 1622 hasta que con la llegada de los Borbones al trono, en los albores del siglo XVIII, Felipe V incorpora brevemente el servicio de correos a la Corona en 1706, arrebatando el privilegio a la familia Vélez de Guevara, indemnizámdolos previamente.

Felipe V y el fin del cargo

Al poco tiempo de poner el servicio postal en manos de la Corona, Felipe V se ve en la necesidad de arrendarlo nuevamente: primeramente al marqués de Monte Sacro. En 1716, Felipe V nombra a Juan Tomás de Goyeneche como juez superintendente y administrador general de las Estafetas de dentro y fuera de estos Reynos… el 8 de julio de 1716. Con este nombramiento, el correo español pasaba a ser administrado directamente por el Estado, a la vez que se indemnizaba a los descendientes de la familia Tassis, que hasta ese momento habían ejercido el cargo de Correo Mayor del Reino por concesión real.

Posición y funciones

La labor del Correo Mayor consistía en brindar un correcto y seguro transporte del correo por medio de un sistema eficaz y sólido de mensajeros, postas y rutas repartidos por todos los territorios del reino. Entre sus tareas estaban las de establecer nuevas rutas, contratar y despedir jefes de postas y mensajeros, y negociar en tiempos de guerra o conflictos con los enviados de los estados enemigos. Para cumplir estas tareas, el rey se encargaba de otorgarle una considerable paga anual y una casi completa potestad sobre sus subordinados.

Desde el principio, al constatar el rey la importancia de contar con un servicio postal bien organizado y eficaz, decide poner bajo su control directo el cargo de Correo Mayor. Otorgando así su plena confianza en la persona portadora del oficio de Correo Mayor y dándole libertades y privilegios significativos. Es así como el cargo de Correo Mayor se convierte en un título importante y respetado dentro de la corte real, motivo por el cual los portadores se vuelven personajes influyentes en la política de la Monarquía, llegando a involucrarse en asuntos internos y en pleitos o querellas.

Con el paso de los años y tras una buena organización a cargo de los primeros correos mayores, la empresa postal se convierte en uno de los monopolios más prósperos e importantes en la Europa de esa época; razón por la que los sucesivos correos mayores dedicaron parte de su tiempo no a sus labores propiamente dichas, sino en su papel y calidad de cortesanos de la Corte, en inmiscuirse en la vida política y social de la época.

Truck hits Mennonite carriage, killing boy and injuring 4
Thu., July 11, 2019
FARMINGTON, Mo. – A pickup truck slammed into a horse-drawn carriage in Missouri on Thursday, killing an 8-year-old Mennonite boy and seriously injuring two other children and two adults, authorities said.
The crash happened at around 6:45 a.m. in a remote area of St. Francois County, about 80 miles southwest of St. Louis, the Highway Patrol said.
The Mennonites were on their way to pick blueberries at a nearby farm near when the truck slammed into the back of their carriage, patrol Cpl. Juston Wheetley told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
"The truck went over the top of it. It's literally destroyed," he said of the carriage.
The 8-year-old died at the scene. The other two children, ages 10 and 12, were taken to St. Louis Children's Hospital with serious injuries. The injured adults, ages 50 and 28, were also seriously hurt and were taken to Barnes-Jewish Hospital, authorities said. The 19-year-old driver of the carriage wasn't injured.
The 19-year-old pickup truck's driver and his passenger were not hurt, and the driver stayed at the scene and cooperated with police, Wheetley said. He said the crash happened on a straight stretch of the two-lane highway and that the carriage had an orange safety placard attached, adding that it isn't clear how fast the truck was going.
The county's Mennonite community was established just two years ago, the Post-Dispatch reported.
Wheetley said Mennonite and Amish carriages have previously been struck by motorized vehicles in Missouri, but that Thursday's crash was the most "severe" he was aware of in that area.
There have been other similar fatal wrecks in recent years, including last month in Algansee Township in southern Michigan, when a pickup truck slammed into a horse-drawn carriage, killing three young Amish children and seriously injuring one other and their mother. The 21-year-old pickup truck's driver was charged with drunken driving causing death and serious injury.
In October of 2017, a truck crashed into a buggy near Sheridan, Michigan, killing three children whose family was on its way to a Sunday service. The 29-year-old truck driver pleaded guilty to misdemeanor moving violation charges.

Q: Самый быстрый метод сортировки массива в JS? Столкнулся с проблемой низкой производительности нативного sort([]) в JavaScript. Профилировщик Google Chrome указывает мне, что этот код выполняется 38ms. К слову, замеченное мной время выполнения остального моего кода - максимум 14ms. Начал читать англоязычные статьи о том, почему же нативный sort() настолько медленный и как многие говорят, проблема в GetThirdIndex().
Какой на ваш взгляд сортировщик сможет быстрее всех справиться с этим кодом:
proposals_map = Object.keys(proposals).sort((a,b) => proposals[a].terms[Object.keys(proposals[a].terms)[0]].unified_price - proposals[b].terms[Object.keys(proposals[b].terms)[0]].unified_price);

Тест на JSPerf говорит, что самый быстрый - InsertSort(то есть сортировка вставками), но сам бенчмарк-то простенький, не с многомерным массивом.

A: В вашем примере тормозит не алгоритм сортировки, а многочисленные вызовы Object.keys.
Надо уменьшить количество этих вызовов. Например так:
proposals_map = Object.keys(proposals)
    .map(key => {
        let terms = proposals[key].terms;
        let price = terms[Object.keys(terms)[0]].unified_price;
        return [key, price];
    })
    .sort((a, b) => a[1] - b[1])
    .map(item => item[0]);

El Draguillo es una entidad de población del municipio de Santa Cruz de Tenerife, en la isla de Tenerife —Canarias, España—, perteneciente administrativamente al distrito de Anaga.

Se trata de un pequeño caserío ubicado al noreste del macizo de Anaga, que posee muestras de arquitectura rural canaria, junto a antiguos lagares construidos en toba volcánica.

De este caserío parten caminos para la práctica del excursionismo que llevan a las poblaciones de Benijo, Chamorga o Las Palmas.

Toponimia
Su nombre se debe a la presencia en él de ejemplares de drago Dracaena draco.

Características
Se trata de un pequeño caserío agrícola ubicado en un ancho lomo entre los barrancos de Las Casas y de Las Quebradas, a 29,8 kilómetros del casco urbano de Santa Cruz de Tenerife y a una altitud media de 179 .

Ocupa una superficie de 2,54 km² que abarcan una amplia zona rural y natural, y que incluye al caserío próximo de Las Palmas. Toda su superficie forma parte del espacio protegido del parque rural de Anaga.

Su enclave es muy propicio al estar protegido por un encajonamiento natural que sirve de protección del mal tiempo, además de estar en una situación dominante y de cara al mar a una altura considerable sobre el acantilado que les servía para ver la llegada de los navíos y a la vez de una formidable protección frente a los posibles ataques piratas bastante frecuentes en el siglo .

En la cumbre destaca la elevación rocosa conocida como Icoso —altitud máxima de la localidad con 764 — y en la costa la Punta de los Roquetes. También tiene interés la zona conocida como El Santísimo, un extenso canchal de gran actividad.

Destaca la presencia de algunos ejemplares silvestres de drago Dracaena draco.

Demografía

Historia

El valle del Draguillo fue habitado por los guanches, tal y como demuestran los diferentes hallazgos arqueológicos realizados en la zona. Este valle pertenecía al menceyato de Anaga.

Terminada la conquista de la isla en 1496 por los europeos, se repartieron tierras entre los conquistadores y colonos. Este valle fue concedido en 1517 a Juan Delgado de las Islas.

Este enclave, conjuntamente con el de Las Palmas, tuvo una gran actividad agrícola durante el siglo , sobre todo ligada al cultivo de la viña.

Fue desde su origen un pago del lugar de Taganana, hasta que en el año 1877 ambos pasan a ser barrios de Santa Cruz de Tenerife.

La pista de El Draguillo se construyó a finales de la década de 1980.

En 1994 toda la superficie del caserío pasa a estar incluida en el parque rural de Anaga.

El 1 de febrero de 2010 el caserío fue uno de los más perjudicados por las lluvias torrenciales que afectaron a gran parte de Anaga.

Economía
Se trata de un núcleo eminentemente agrícola, con huertas dedicadas a la viña.

Comunicaciones
Se llega a través de la Pista de El Draguillo, que llega desde el caserío de Benijo.

Caminos
Por el caserío pasan algunos de los caminos tradicionales de Anaga, todos ellos homologados en la Red de Senderos de Tenerife:

 Sendero PR-TF 6 Circular Chamorga - Las Palmas - El Draguillo.
 Sendero PR-TF 6.2 Playa del Roque de Las Bodegas - El Draguillo - Almáciga.
 Sendero PR-TF 6.3 Camino del Paso del Hediondo.

The second season of The Office is a much-needed improvement from the first one cementing it as one of the best comedies on television.
Romance dominates this season. Michael (Steve Carell) develops romantic interests with his boss Jan (Melora Hardin). Jim (John Krasinski) has a brief fling with Katy (Amy Adams), but still longs for Pam (Jenna Fischer) who is with Roy (David Denham). Dwight (Rainn Wilson) and Angela (Angela Kinsey) also enter into a weird, but fun relationship.
Many of the background characters from the first season that played little to no part have now been developed into larger roles. There's so much talent among the cast with each of them having their distinct flair of comedy. Among the standouts are Brian Baumgartner as Kevin and Phyllis Smith as Phyllis.
