Q: "python" only runs from command prompt as Admin I'm on Windows 7 and if I type "python" in the command prompt as my regular user, I get the old, "'python' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file." but if I open the prompt as the administrator, python initiates like it should.
The very first thing I did was edit the PATH variables through Control Panel, which seemed to add the environment variable, but there's a disconnect between doing this and cmd recognizing that I've done it.
I have changed the permissions on the Python27 folder to allow full access to all users, I've tried adding a pythonexe variable and add that to the PATH, as another StackOverflow question suggested.
When I type PATH = C:\Python27 into cmd as a regular user, that also wont work.
and if I type in set PATH, "C:\Python27;" is in the returned line.
I'm fairly certain it's a permission problem, which is the only reason I've re-posted my own version of this age old question. How do I run Python, given this error and these circumstances?

A: To append your path with python directory: path=%PATH$;c:\Python27
Run as normal user.
You should also double check that c:\python27\python.exe actually exists.

A: So, one of the things I noticed when I had that problem is that the USERNAME environment variable was only set to system which is the administrator environment variable. I simply looked up the username in the regular command prompt, using echo %USERNAME% and appended a semicolon and the username to the %USERNAME& environment variable. That fixed the issue. Everything you can do in the administrator is now able to be done in the regular user command line as well.

A: I've experienced a similar issue in the past and found that also checking the order of the values in the environmental/system variables matters as well.


Profitable Passive Forex Snap Theory Setup.
In the Forex market place, there are actually two kinds of orders that traders employ, in connection to applying a position in the current market place, Passive and Aggressive.
These are orders that are placed in the market using a buy/sell limit. Basically a trader will identify a trade according to ones strategy and place an order. If the price reaches the level, your order will be filled.
Speculators that utilise thisprocess, enter or exit trades using a market order. They are normallycomfortableabout the current level, by executing the trade at the best price. If the investor has small experience, you willtend to find the majority of trades are instructed onemotion rather than a structured trading plan.
Traders that utilise this function, enter or exit trades using a market order. They are generally comfortable about the current level, by executing the trade at the best price. If the trader has limited experience, you will tend to find the majority of trades are instructed on impulse rather than a structured trading plan.
Entering the trade is only the first hurdle in the direction of striving for trading success. Keep your eye out for part 2 of this live trade, to see whether the trade accomplished and achieved my profit target and most importantly, how I managed the risk element of the position.

SPGPrints presents Pike at FESPA Mexico 2017
SPGPrints will be presenting its comprehensive machine and ink solutions to "drive the uptake" of digital textile printing in Central America at FESPA Mexico 2017.
This annual event, which brings industry professionals together from across North and Central America, will take place from 16 to 18 November at the Centro Citibanamex of Mexico City, and will feature 190 leading manufacturers and suppliers exhibiting from both international and regional companies.
At the event, screen and digital print equipment manufacturer SPGPrints will be presenting the Pike and Javelin digital textile printers. The former won the European Digital Press (EDP) Award for the Best Industrial Textile Solution in 2016 and the latter picked up the 2017 EDP Award for Best Textile Solution.
Both printers use SPGPrints' Archer technology and Fujifilm Dimatix Samba print heads to fire variable drops of ink (2-10pL) from a distance of up to 4mm onto the substrate.
SPGPrints said the Javelin, a digital production scanning printer, is aimed at companies taking the first step into digital printing, or supplementing an existing digital capability. It is designed for textile printers requiring up to 2 million linear metres per year, the company added.
SPGPrints said for larger volumes, SPGPrints it offers the Pike, a single-pass, high-speed production printer. The company said it will additionally present inks for digital printers using Kyocera printheads.
SPGPrints touted its rotary screen offerings: the NovaScreen range, which offers "high quality, durable and reuseable" nickel screens in mesh sizes from 135 to 245; the NovaScreen 245 mesh, which offers the "highest possible resolution" in printing with sharp lines and geometrical designs; and the RandomScreen , a 125 mesh screen with the position of each hole slightly out of line.
"The Mexican market is on the cusp of taking its first serious steps into high-volume digital textile production, and the Pike and Javelin printers offer the combination of speed, print quality, flexibility and cost-effectiveness that our customers, and others, have been waiting for," said Fernando Montes, managing director of SPGPrints Mexico.
"[Presently], there is about a 60/40 split between polyester and cotton garments. Digital printing is able to create a more attractive look and feel without impacting price, which is also a major force in the market," added Montes.

Now in its 10th edition, FESPA Mexico has become an established, successful trade show, attracting an audience of 10,000 print professionals.
The event has become the largest dedicated exhibition for the wide-format digital printing, screen printing, signage and garment decoration industries in Mexico and Central America.

Videos have always been an effective way to connect with audiences. YouTube previously had a near monopoly on the online video industry. Slowly more and more companies began to follow suit and allowed videos to be posted on multiple platforms, but YouTube still offered creators the option to include advertisements before videos in order to add monetary value to the number of views.
YouTube Red is a variant of the popular platform, YouTube. You obviously knew that, but the two aren't even remotely the same in terms of popularity, purpose, and potential.

From Diebold, Inc.: Democracy Unbound
"Automobiles. The printing press. The personal computer. These milestones of progress improved society forever. Now it's democracy's turn." -- www.diebold.com
From the time of its birth in ancient Athens, democracy has been a scarce commodity. So scarce, in fact, that wars have been fought over it.
In 490 B.C., the Greeks defended their precious store of democracy against the Persians at the Battle of Marathon, made famous by the two-day swing dance with which they celebrated their victory. In 1775, in the peaceful white-collar suburbs of Lexington and Concord, employees of the Bunker-Ramo Corporation battled British troops so that our own treasured cache of democracy might grow and flourish.
Even now, brave American men and women are protecting precious stores of U.S.-made democracy, secured behind barricades, trenches, and barbed wire, from rampaging Asiatic hordes not so different from those faced by the ancient Greeks.
But throughout history, people have dreamed of a better world. A world in which democracy is unbounded, unlimited, free for the taking. A world in which -- to paraphrase the Rev. Dr. Larry King -- democracy would flow "like a mighty stream."
One of those dreamers was Charles Diebold.
Growing up in a humble family of poll workers in Cincinnati, Ohio, in the mid-1800s, Charles saw at first hand the terrible cost of American democracy: the ankles sprained on potholed roads on the way to the polling place, the fingers lost to the cruel machines that trimmed the paper ballots, the eyesight sacrificed to reading and tallying faint X's on a scrap of paper. But even more painful than these physical costs were the tragic moments when the people voted for an inappropriate candidate, squandering their vital supply of democracy.
Young Charles vowed to find a better way.
In 1859, Charles founded the Diebold Safe & Lock Company. Its motto: "Locking Up Elections Safely." Since electronic computers were not yet invented -- Babbage's Analytic Injun, a cigar-store Cherokee with an abacus in place of a tomahawk, was still on the drawing board -- Charles contented himself with making large safes and vaults for banks and other clients, so that precious stocks of democracy could be kept secure from those who might misuse them.
Over the years, Charles's company -- now renamed Diebold, Incorporated -- created jail cells, padded cells, tear gas dispensers, file systems, microfilm systems, drive-up banking systems, alarm systems, pneumatic-tube delivery systems, surveillance systems, system-control systems, system-monitoring systems, system-systematizing systems, Automatic Teller Machines, and armor plate for tanks. In 2001, in recognition of its role in protecting the nation's precious reserves of democracy, Diebold was awarded the contract to secure the Charters of Freedom, including the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the Declaration of Independence, and the National Guard service record of President George W. Bush.
But it was only in 2002, with the acquisition of Global Election Systems, that Charles Diebold's childhood dream began to reach fruition. Today, that dream -- the dream of young Charles, and the dream of humanity since the days of ancient Athens -- has become a reality.
Democracy so plentiful that it need no longer be counted.
Democracy too cheap to meter.
Today, it's hard to remember that there was once a time when votes had to be painfully cast and painstakingly counted. Responding to the mandates of the Help America Vote Act of 2002, the vast majority of the 50 states now use preprogrammable, wholly automatic electronic voting machines in some or all of their jurisdictions. In this November's election, 40 percent of America's votes will be cast by such machines, and a full 90 percent will be cast or counted electronically.
The models used most often?
Diebold's state-of-the-art AccuVote TS and TSX.
We have a soft spot for our own product, of course. But we have full confidence in those of other manufacturers, nearly all of whom share our close financial relationship with America's leading political party. And indeed, in the last few elections, electronic voting machines have proven themselves in race after race, correcting the errors of "scientific" exit polls -- nearly always in the right direction.
In the unlikely event of a malfunction, skilled plainclothes technicians are on call 24/7 to install a quick, effective, and undetectable "patch." In fact, the AccuVote is so user-friendly that it can often be serviced by the customer -- especially since it can be conveniently opened with a standard key from a file cabinet or hotel minibar. And since there's usually no messy "paper trail" to worry about, expensive, traumatic recounts are not just unnecessary -- they're downright impossible.
Sprained ankles, strained eyes, ink-stained or lopped-off fingers: all these are now things of the past. While many Americans still make the traditional trip to their local public school or other polling place on the first Tuesday in November -- a pageant as quaint and colorful as the reenactment of battles between Minutemen and Redcoats on the village green -- the rest of us can rest secure in the knowledge that the outcome has already been determined. Secure because we know it is the right outcome -- an outcome scientifically programmed to reflect the deepest values and most vital interests of the American people. So no matter how the ship of state is battered and buffeted by war, hurricanes, or pedophilia, it can be counted on to hold its true course.
It's a remarkable thing, when you think about it. While in other parts of the world people still struggle for democracy, here in America it's something we can take for granted -- as pure and plentiful as the air we breathe, the water we drink, or the carbon dioxide that keeps us warm.
Young Charles would be proud.

Dhalgren, by Samuel R. Delany
June 2, 2014 January 18, 2021 / Daniel Haeusser
ASIN: B00HE2JK7G
836 pages, Kindle Edition
(Original Publ: 1974)
a behemoth. Certainly there are much longer novels out there, but rarely does one see a creature matching this degree of size and power. Dhalgren is the first novel that I've read that manages to effectively transform the reading process itself into an experience of culture. In other words, Delany's construction and style make this a metanovel where the reading of it, in all its nonstandard ways, creates the sensations of Dhalgren's characters and settings a reality in the reader. Just as 'The Kid' enters into the bizarrely incomprehensible city of Bellona, so goes the reader into a hazy experience of uncertainty and wonder that catalyzes introspection and revelation. Now granted, not everyone is going to find this to be a good thing. If you only care about entertainment and story, don't bother, but if you appreciate something more, this is a city you should enter, an experience of which you should partake.
Dhalgren is apocalyptic. Typically this genre within science fiction uses the popular definition of the word, to convey disaster, or post-disaster. In Dhalgren Bellona has gone through some sort of disaster, but the remainder of the world is said to be fine. Bellona is isolated in its trauma. Delany does not use this genre to explore post-apocalyptic action, such as the contrasts of human decency or barbarism that come in response to a loss of civilization. Instead he is using it to explore the concept of apocalypse in its original sense: a revealing. Within the novel itself isolated Bellona provides the environment for the unreliable, point-of-view protagonist to discover himself. 'The Kid' is an amnesiac – of sorts – with a mental history suggesting much of what he sees and records may be incorrect. Though he never determines who exactly he is, he does go through revelations regarding his nature. Delany seems to link this process of apocalypse intimately with the culture of art and community, of creativity and the act of creating to explore with others this business of existence and living. Lost in Bellona, "The Kid" becomes the leader of a gang, an influential poet, and an excellent recorder of the details of living in this weird city. Simultaneously Dhalgren is a revelation to the reader: the unveiling of a period of history, of a counter culture. Like any good apocalyptic literature, Bellona is a symbol for a time that has largely passed, but that does not make the novel dated, for its themes are universal. Though I wasn't born until after the era of culture this novel manifests, I suspect that reading Dhalgren is a fair approximation without a time machine on hand.Dhalgren is inspirational, either for adoration or derision, or sometimes both. It is easy to see why the novel is beloved by those like William Gibson, who writes a lovely introduction to this edition. Yet, other critics hate this novel with zeal. If it's not your cup of tea, it's easy to see how it could infuriate you. The opening and closing portions of the novel are the most daunting, so I wouldn't suggest giving up on this until you reach the third chapter and still find it unreadable. If by that point you are interested it is worth continuing. Yet, Dhalgren isn't a perfect novel (or metanovel even). It has its own proper issues. By the last chapters all points have been covered really, and it begins to weigh as excessively written. Given how quickly the first publication of Dhalgren was rushed out (with numerous errors that later had to be fixed – and couldn't have been easy to find considering how much intentional errors/incomprehensible bits there are) one wishes that an editor would have taken a sterner red marker to the manuscript. Dhalgren is literature, only minimally science fiction, and in keeping with its focus on detail over 'big picture' there are some rather frank depictions of sexuality in its myriad forms.
Dhalgren is special; I will not forget the experience of stumbling through its pages, lost on the ever-shifting streets of Bellona, entranced by the mysterious wonders writ upon the skies in moments of bright clarity amid hazy gray fogs.
Dhalgren is

On Sunday night in Atlantic City, New Jersey, Kira Kazantsev from New York scored the title and crown of Miss America by playing a red cup to Pharrell's "Happy." Wait, she did what?
Related story Meghan Markle Says Public Backlash Hasn't Been 'Easy' Since Becoming a Royal
You read that correctly. Miss New York (at the time of her performance) squatted cross-legged on the beauty queen competition's biggest stage wearing a Princess Jasmine-inspired jumpsuit and played a red plastic cup while she sang Pharrell's "Happy."
VIDEO REVIEW: Pharrell's "Come Get It Bae" has one huge flaw >>
Wait, hold everything. Before you launch into a rant about how this type of "talent" demonstrates why we are losing the achievement war in this country where people are awarded for just showing up, Miss America has an explanation for you.
"The reason why I chose to do that talent is I wanted every single little girl in America to be able to see that you can do that talent — you can do whatever talent you want on national television — even with a red cup — and still be Miss America and have the time of your life. I literally in that minute and 30 seconds had the most fun I've ever had, and that's because I stayed true to myself, and I did what I wanted to do for my talent, no matter what everybody else told me, and it paid off. I'm very happy about it," Kazantsev said in defense of her, er, talent. She continued to defend her performance by saying she was inspired by the cup-playing scene in Pitch Perfect as if that makes it OK.

As one would imagine, a social media backlash ensued. Here are just a few of our favorite tweets.…

You get the gist. While many Americans are scratching their heads trying to figure out why we still have beauty competitions at all, now we have to digest a celebration of mediocrity comprised of an exceptionally tired and annoying song accompanied by a red plastic cup that could be performed by a preschooler.
Let's say you missed this performance. (In the immortal words of Peter Gibbons from Office Space, we wouldn't say you "missed it.") You're in luck. We found a low-quality recording (our apologies, for some reason — perhaps because it is a national embarrassment? — ABC is not sharing this performance in its entirety at the time this was written) of a talent that our country now rewards with a crown.

Q: How to set default credentials in Jenkins using Groovy script? I am trying to write my first 'Groovy script' in Jenkins and using SVN
My requirement is to create a 'free style job' from another 'Jenkins job' using groovy
Using the following code, I am able to create a 'free style job' via 'groovy'
import jenkins.model.Jenkins;
import hudson.model.FreeStyleProject;
import hudson.tasks.Shell;
import hudson.triggers.*;

def feature_branch = build.buildVariableResolver.resolve("FEATURE_BRANCH")

job = Jenkins.instance.createProject(FreeStyleProject, feature_branch)

job.buildersList.add(new Shell('echo hello world'))
job.scm = new hudson.scm.SubversionSCM("http://base/branches/mybranche")

job.save()

Though the job is created by default 'SCM Credentials' to set to 'None' in the 'newly created job'
1) How can I set the 'default credentials' using groovy from 'Global credentials' ?
2) How can I add a 'build parameter' via groovy?  Again not much information available on google

A: Try use something like this:
job('FEATURE_BRANCH') {
    steps {
       shell("echo 'hello world'")
    }
    scm {
      svn {
        location('http://base/branches/mybranche') {
          credentials('crd_svn')
         }
      }
    }
}

crd_svn is the identifier of the credentials that are managed by the Credentials Plugin.
And Job DSL plugin page   could be useful.

A: After searching for sometime, I found the following which enabled me to set the 'default credentials' of a job
job.scm.locations[0].credentialsId = "Hash-value-of-credential"

How Much Does a Bobcat Skid Steer Cost?
Bobcat is one of the oldest manufactures of skid steer loaders. Bobcat skid steer loaders are popular and have been known to offer reliable and quality service when being used to work on different projects with little or no maintenance. These machines are highly customizable and based on how a user customizes them they can meet huge project demands and work more efficiently in different environments than other machines. These machines can be used with ease where other, bulkier machines do not have the room to work safely. Bobcat skid steer loaders are available in different sizes catered to meet the demands of various projects. Because of their maneuverability, they are highly prized in situations where much activity is needed, but the space to do so is small. Using different attachments can also aid the work without adding a great deal of expense or leaving a large amount of spare soil/materials to clear away after use. Because of the brand, a potential user may find the machine is out of their budget range and instead use an inferior machine, which may increase the risk factor for insurance purposes. The price of the Bobcat name however can also get the user cheaper rates on insurance for the person or persons operating the machine.
Bobcat skid steer loaders come with different features that enable quality service delivery. They are fast and this ensures that large projects are completed within their intended period. These machines are more efficient and this means it is easy to load and lift materials. The biggest advantage with these machines is that they have a befitting weight balance. This weight balance allows these machines to maximize the life of their tires, make very tight turns and use the engine for a longer period of time.
· Attachments – ensure that the machine has a wide selection of attachments so that you can work on more projects.
· Dependability and maintenance – the machine should be dependable and easier to maintain. It should also allow for easy access of components to ensure that repairs are done faster. The machine should offer more uptime so that you can work on many projects for a long time.
· Ease of use and comfort – ensure that it is easier to control the machine and that you are comfortable when operating it. By comfort, this means the machine should offer more visibility, space, better leg and head room, climate control, wide views and advanced control options.
Bobcat skid steer loaders have different prices and these will be determined by the vendor, buyer location, size and operating capacity. For those in need of a Bobcat skid steer loader with an operational capacity of up to 1,500 lbs., this will cost an average of $17,500. For operational capacity of more than 2,000 lbs., this will cost an average of $38,000.

West Palm Beach Criminal Attorney > Blog > Criminal Defense > Man Arrested in Connection with Triple Shooting
Man Arrested in Connection with Triple Shooting
A drive-by shooting that "got the city's attention" now has its first suspect. A Riviera Beach man has been arrested in connection with a shooting that left two men injured and killed another. He is believed to have two other co-conspirators who have neither been named or arrested.
The shooting then prompted local officials to crack down on the area. Alan Mark Asbury III, 21, has been charged with the murder of David Patrick Goodman, Jr. A judge has ordered Asbury held without bond.
Asbury has an interesting criminal history. He has been arrested and charged with four felonies over the past three years. He was charged with attempted murder but was acquitted for that crime. Asbury has six total criminal incidents dating back to when he was still a minor.
Three Others Implicated in the Shooting
The three other men who police say were co-conspirators in the drive-by shooting are as yet unnamed by police, but it is supposed that police have three men in mind. They simply haven't been arrested yet. Since Asbury is facing life in prison without the possibility of parole as a minimum (and quite possibly the death penalty if convicted) the police will attempt to lean on him for as much information as they can possibly get. This will include evidence against the other three men involved in the shooting.
The shooting occurred around 2 p.m. in the afternoon. Deputies found the three men shot in the backyard of a home in Lake Worth Beach. Goodman had been shot several times in the face and was pronounced dead at the scene.
Days after the shooting occurred, local authorities began to crack down on the neighborhood which is notorious for violent crime. It is still unclear why these individual men were targeted, but the investigation is ongoing.
However, the case may be more difficult to prove than it appears. Drive-by shootings rely on evidence such as guns used in the shooting, eyewitness reports, and gunpowder residue, and circumstantial evidence. Witnesses said they saw the men dressed in dark clothing with their faces covered with bandanas that resembled the Haitian flag. Eye witness testimony is generally not reliable in a drive-by shooting case, so police will rely on finding evidence of the weapons used in the shooting to link these men to the crime. IDing the vehicle they used will also be helpful.
Circumstantial evidence can be very useful when determining a motive for the crime. For instance, if it was known that the men who committed the shooting had some kind of beef with the men who were shot, that could provide the most compelling evidence against Asbury and the other shooters. Chances are, however, since only one of the four has been arrested, that they're leaning on Asbury to provide information about the others.
If you've been charged with a serious crime, call the West Palm Beach criminal attorneys at the Skier Law Firm, P.A. today and allow us to begin preparing your defense. We can help.

ROADiES: A Sound Experience
by Jeff Wexler CAS and Donavan Dear CAS
Jeff Wexler: When the call came in for Roadies, I knew I had to do it. I was not available to work on the pilot, which they shot in Vancouver, Canada, as I was on a feature. Showtime gave it the green light for a full season and though I was pretty much semi-retired, I really wanted to do the show. Don Coufal and I have done six movies with Cameron Crowe and Roadies would be Cameron's and my first television episodic. I was a little worried since I had not done any episodic television and heard all the horror stories. But there was no need to worry, Cameron had not developed any of those awful habits, and shooting the first two episodes with Cameron directing was wonderful— just like working on any of the movies with him. It was a bit of an adjustment for me to be doing nine pages a day instead of the one and a half I was used to.
Each episode was to have one or more music scenes and in preproduction, we had lots of discussions about how to do these things—shoot to prerecorded playback tracks, shoot to playback but live vocals or do it all live. Many of the scenes took the form of impromptu songs performed in dressing rooms, hotel rooms, rehearsals, music and dialog, starting and stopping; the sorts of scenes that are best done live. The final decision was to do all the music live record.
I have done lots of music in movies, playback, live recording, concert recordings with remote truck and so forth, and I already knew that the Production Sound Mixer needs to have help doing all of this, whether it is as simple as hiring a Playback Operator or as complex as interfacing with a remote truck for a full on concert recording. I requested that Production hire Gary Raymond and an assistant for any of the live record. We added Bill Lanham to Gary's crew, a veteran concert engineer who proved to be a vital part of the music crew. Gary was set up to record directly into Pro Tools with all sources in use for the scene. Some of the performances were fairly simple, one person, solo guitar, but others were quite a bit more complex, full on concert setups. I was so pleased to be able to record Lindsey Buckingham singing "Bleed to Love Her," just Lindsey and his amazing guitar playing, recorded with just one Schoeps overhead. Like so many of the things we have done together, all the "mixing" of this beautiful sound was done by Don Coufal with his fishpole.
It was always the plan that I would do the first two episodes that Cameron was directing— I was really not up to doing the full season so I asked Donavan Dear to come in and replace me. Donavan was so pleased to come onto what turned out to be one of the best TV experiences ever. Don Coufal stayed on the job which helped immensely in terms of preserving continuity on the show, and Donavan was pleased of course, for the chance to work with Don. After the first two episodes, new directors were brought in as is usually the case with episodic, but Cameron was there most days and directed the last episode.
I'm just so pleased that I got to do the two episodes, and be able to work with Cameron Crowe again.
Donavan Dear: When Jeff Wexler asked me to take over for him on Roadies, I said I'd love to do it. A few weeks later, Jeff introduced me to Cameron Crowe. Cameron took a lot of time talking and getting to know me. I've done many television shows and never seen a director actually take more than a minute to meet the new Sound Mixer. We talked about our love of music and how it could be used to mold the performance of the actors. This was the first clue Roadies was going to be different. Taking over for Jeff Wexler was very flattering and getting to use Don Coufal on the boom was also something I was really looking forward to.
Roadies Was Different
Roadies was different; from the start, it was essentially a very long feature about music and the people who made it happen. Cameron had decided that he wanted live music performances, which not only meant the performers would perform live, but the sound system would be real from the arena speakers to the concert desk, monitors and amps. Jeff Wexler smartly decided the PA system should be managed and set up by concert-sound experts, so he hired Gary (Raymond) and Bill (Lanham), who set up the entire PA systems a day or two before each performance. I would simply take a stereo left/rght mix directly out their console; the loudness of the speakers was always set to not interfere with the multitrack recording.
One of the other interesting facets of Roadies was the live recordings that weren't stage performances. There were usually a couple in each show, the artist would start "noodling" on a guitar throughout the scene with one of the roadies, or they would just be singing a song trying to tell a story. This was a lot of fun. We recorded Halsey with one of the roadies, Machine Gun Kelly (aka Colson Baker) playing and singing with two electric guitars beneath the stage. What was most challenging was to get a consistent mix with multiple cameras and different angles in such a poor acoustic environment. This is where Don's listening was so important. It's simple to play back a prerecorded track and have the actors lip-sync, or even to live record the first take of a performance, then play back that recording to keep things consistent in future takes. We recorded every shot and every angle live. When the cameras would turn around and change the position of the actors and amplifiers, it changed the properties of the sound. The actors usually could not sing and play the music the same way from take to take. This is why it's so important for the Boom Operator to listen. There is no formula for positioning a microphone and capturing the same musical tonality, there is only your memory of how the last setup sounded and how to place a microphone for the best sound and consistency. Don Coufal and the editors did an outstanding job in preserving great live performances. More often than not, our biggest problem was the balance between the louder acoustic guitars and soft singing voices—often nudged by Don to give us a little more voice.
Boom Philosophy
There are two kinds of Boom Operators: 'hard cuers' and 'floaters.' Don Coufal and I are on opposite sides of these philosophies, but I had so much respect and trust of Don that I let him do what he does best. My regular boom operators are always aggressive and cue very hard while getting the mic as close to the frame line as possible, while Don concentrates on listening very diligently to the background ambience and cueing to the voice, creating a smooth, consistent background. Don Coufal is probably the only boom operator I know whom I would trust to use his method.
Don and I had some great conversations about microphones and technique, but when we talked about microphones, acoustics or the tone of a particular actor's voice, I could see the excitement in his eyes. I knew he was someone I could trust completely. A sound man needs to be excited about equipment, about learning and about ways to approach an actor with a sound problem in a way that will make the actor feel comfortable to accommodate that request.
Don made a believer out of me. Boom Operators have to learn every line in the script and point the mic at the actor's sweet spot no matter what technique they use. There is a movie/TV difference; in general, a sound crew on a feature has more opportunities to quiet the set whereas a TV crew often doesn't have time to put out all the 'noise fires.'
When it comes down to it, the floating style cuts nicely with a bit more background noise, where a hard-cue technique has more proximity effect and less background noise but with a more inconsistent background ambience. All in all, the most important things about boom technique are listening and experience. Don Coufal excels in both of those.
Cameron Crowe: Roadies was very special because of Cameron Crowe, and music is very special to him. There were times during a take that an AD would run over to me and say Cameron wants you to play one of these four songs between the lines or in that moment, at the end of the shot. We always had a playback speaker ready, several music apps and 150,000 of my own songs ready to go at all times. Cameron has his own playback/computer desk that Jeff built for him so he could play music and set the tone for an actor's performance or set a mood for the crew before a scene. Cameron uniquely communicated with music, he wasn't a very technical director but he did have an amazing way of tuning and changing a performance with his choice of music. The goal of Roadies was to move people with great music and sound. I was so happy to be a part of such a special show.

Q: auto-compile, auto-run, auto-compare result in Java dear all,
i am new in Java and at now i am trying to develop an application under Java to do such these things:
assumption:
there is a file contains source code in Java.
let's assume that the file contains a main class (and it's main method with several additional methods) and some inner classes which will be used during the main class running time.
processes:

*

*the application which i want to develop (call it as ASIN), will try to compile the source code we have assumed above.

*after compilation phase is finished. i want the ASIN will allocate some memory space 32 Mb (for instance), and give a maximum running time 2 seconds (for instance).

*after allocating the memory and the maximum time limit for running, ASIN will try to run the java byte code by using allocated resource (memory 32 Mb) with given maximum time. Then ASIN will record/capture result. if the running byte code is using more than allocated memory, or exceeding the given time limit, ASIN will force to stop the execution. so, the normal case is when the execution finished before the maximum time limit and use less than allocated memory.

can java do thing above?
any suggestion what should i do?
regards,

A: Is this supposed to be a grading system for a programming contest or for exercises in a university course? There might exist open-source systems for that, so google it first if you haven't already. If you have to / want to make one yourself, I'm not sure if Java lets you limit the time spent by a program (but you could, of course, simply kill the program after waiting a certain amount of time), but the memory limit of a java program can be specified with e.g. -Xmx32m when starting the program with the java command. If this is on a unix system, the simplest solution will probably be to use ulimit to limit both the memory usage and the run time.
In either case, I think you'll have to use Runtime.exec() to launch both the compiler and the program. This will also let you feed input into the process and read the output from the process (although I/O redirection could also be performed to/from files if you launch the program with e.g.
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("java -Xmx32m Program.class < input.txt > output.txt");

As for the comparison: unless you require an exact match (even in whitespace), the simplest solution is probably to redirect the output to a file and invoke diff with either -b or -w, and possibly --ignore-blank-lines; if the return code is 0, the output is equal to the solution (except for whitespace differences). On the other hand, if you need interactive grading (the program is supposed to "converse" with the grader) or if the output may be formed in different ways such that there is no unique correct answer, you can't use diff; the grader must read the process' output stream instead.

A: I'd do this in shell script rather than java. Would that be an option?
You can do the memory and time limiting using ulimit. If you write a small shell script that does this:
set -e
ulimit -v 32768 # ulimit -v works in 1 kB blocks, so this is 32 MB
ulimit -t 2 # ulimit -t works in seconds
java ProgramUnderTest >output

Then when you run it, it will give itself memory and time limits, and launch java as a subprocess. If the program completes in time (note that the limit is on CPU time, not real time), it will finish with exit status 0; otherwise, it will have some nonzero exit status.
If you want to record how much actual time was used within the limit, run java under time:
time java ProgramUnderTest >output

That will print the total amount of time used after the output.
Compiling the code from a script is also easy, of course - just run javac. Remember to check the exit status to see if the code compiled correctly.

Магнитная левитация — технология, метод подъёма объекта с помощью одного только магнитного поля. Магнитное давление используется для компенсации ускорения свободного падения или любых других ускорений.

Теорема Ирншоу утверждает, что, используя только ферромагнетики, невозможно устойчиво удерживать объект в гравитационном поле. Несмотря на это, с помощью сервомеханизмов, диамагнетиков, сверхпроводников и систем с вихревыми токами левитация возможна.

В некоторых случаях подъёмная сила обеспечивается магнитной левитацией, но при этом есть механическая поддержка, дающая устойчивость. В этих случаях явление называется псевдолевитация.

Магнитная левитация используется в маглевах, магнитных подшипниках и показе продукции.

Способы реализации магнитной левитации

 С использованием постоянного магнита
 С использованием электромагнита
 С использованием сверхпроводящего магнита

Основные типы магнитной левитации

 При помощи электромагнитных систем
 При помощи электродинамических систем

Подъёмная сила
Магнитные материалы и системы способны притягивать или отталкивать друг друга  с силой, зависящей от магнитного поля и поверхности магнита. Из этого следует, что может быть определено магнитное давление.

Магнитное давление магнитного поля сверхпроводника подсчитывается по формуле:

где  — сила на единицу площади поверхности в Паскалях,  — магнитная индукция над сверхпроводником в Теслах, и  = 4π×10−7 Н·А−2 — магнитная проницаемость вакуума.

Устойчивость

Статическая
Статическая устойчивость значит, что любое смещение из состояния равновесия заставляет равнодействующую силу выталкивать объект обратно в состояние равновесия.

Теорема Ирншоу окончательно доказала, что невозможно левитировать объект, используя только статичные макроскопические магнитные поля. Силы, действующие на любой парамагнетик в любой комбинации с гравитационными, электростатическими, и магнитостатическими сделают положение объекта в лучшем случае неустойчивым относительно одной оси и это может дать неустойчивое равновесие относительно всех осей. Тем не менее, существует несколько возможностей сделать левитацию реальной, на примере использования электронной стабилизации или диамагнетиков (так как Магнитная проницаемость меньше) может быть показано, что диамагнитные материалы устойчивы относительно как минимум одной оси и могут быть устойчивы относительно всех осей. Проводники имеют относительную проницаемость к переменным магнитным полям последнего, так что некоторые конфигурации, использующие магниты, работающие на переменном токе, устойчивы сами по себе.

Динамическая
Динамическая устойчивость проявляется в случаях, когда левитирующая система способна подавить любое возможное виброобразное движение.

Магнитные поля являются консервативными силами и поэтому в принципе не могут иметь встроенный способ подавления. Фактически, многие схемы левитации имеют недостаточное подавление. Таким образом, вибрации могут существовать и вывести объект за пределы зоны равновесия.

Подавление движения осуществляется несколькими способами:

 внешнее механическое подавление, например лобовое сопротивление
 использование вихревых токов (влияние на проводник полем)
 инерционный демпфер в левитируемом объекте
 электромагниты, управляемые посредством электроники

Использование

Транспорт с магнитной левитацией

Маглев, или магнитная левитация, — это способ транспортировки, который подвешивает, направляет и приводит в движение транспорт, в основном поезда, используя магнитную левитацию. Данный способ быстрее и тише, чем в случае использования колеса.

Максимальная скорость маглева была зафиксирована в Японии в 2003 и составила 581 км/ч, что на 6 км/ч быстрее, чем рекорд TGV.

На начало 2017 года единственным в мире поездом на магнитной подушке, находящимся в коммерческой эксплуатации, является шанхайский маглев.

Human Rights Abuses in Russian-occupied Crimea
15.03.2019 | Halya Coynash
Russia breaks all records in Crimea with level of persecution of 8 Crimean Tatars
From left Memet Belyalov with his daughter, Timur Ibragimov with one of his three children
Russia brings charges of 'planning to violently seize power' for Crimean Solidarity with political prisoners
Russia fights Crimean Solidarity with long prison sentences and shattered childhoods

FSB's 'secret witness' exposed during trial of 6 Crimean political prisoners
Russia condemned for launching 'machine of wholesale persecution' in occupied Crimea
Profoundly cynical trial begins of Crimean Tatar human rights activist and five other Crimean Muslims
The FSB 'investigators' in Russian-occupied Crimea have suddenly changed the indictment against two political prisoners from Bakhchysarai, arrested for their faith and involvement in the Crimean Solidarity civic initiative in October 2017. The move, which could result in Memet Belyalov and Timur Ibragimov being sentenced to 20 years or even life imprisonment, is not based on any empirical evidence and may simply be because the FSB got their fingers burned over a similarly flawed case and are now 'playing safe'.
Belyalov's lawyer Edem Semedlyaev explains that all eight men in this 'case' were informed on 5 March that the preliminary investigation had been concluded, with the next stage being to read the file material. His client, however, together with Ibragimov, were handed a decision stating that the charges against them had been changed from 'involvement in a terrorist group' to 'organizing' such a group.
These apparently alarming charges are nothing of the kind. They are based solely on unproven allegations of involvement in Hizb ut-Tahrir, a peaceful, pan-Islamist party which is legal in Ukraine and which has never committed any act of terrorism anywhere. This is the reason why all those convicted on such charges are recognized as political prisoners by the authoritative Memorial Human Rights Centre. The latter has thus far not even waited until the depressingly predictable 'convictions' before declaring Crimean Muslims arrested on such charges political prisoners, as Russia is also violating international law by imposing its legislation on occupied territory, with this especially shocking since Hizb ut-Tahrir is not banned in Ukraine.
The first such prosecutions in occupied Crimea had one person designated as 'organizer', under Article 205.5 § 1 of Russia's criminal code, with three or more others accused of 'involvement' (Article 205.5 § 2). The reason for one charge, not the other, were always very arbitrary, but that appeared to be the pattern that the FSB followed.
On August 21, 2018, the previous 'template' for these FSB prosecutions in occupied Crimea was suddenly turned on its head when the Russian military court 'trying' Crimean Tatar human rights activist Emir-Usein Kuku and five other Ukrainian Muslims suddenly proposed that the prosecutor change the indictment against Envir Bekirov.
The court, under presiding judge Nikolai Vasilchuk, asserted that from one of the illicit recordings used as supposed evidence in this case, it could be concluded that Bekirov had organized a meeting in the school where he worked as a guard. The 'judges' saw this as enough to change the charge to 'organizing a Hizb ut-Tahrir', with this potentially carrying a life sentence.
There are, in fact, grounds for suspecting that this decision, like all in such cases, did not come from the judges, and that the real reason for sending the case back for changes to the indictment was very different. The identity of one of the 'secret witnesses' had been exposed during the hearings, with this giving reason to believe that his 'cooperation' with the FSB had been obtained via torture and threats (details here).
There is nothing to indicate why the FSB should have decided to now change the indictment against Belyalov and Ibragimov, but it could be as trivial that they initiated a discussion on religious matters that the FSB's obliging 'experts' have claimed prove involvement in Hizb ut-Tahrir.
Semedlyaev told Krym.Realii that this prosecution of eight Crimean Tatars from Bakhchysarai is a 'record-breaker' for Crimea in terms of the severity of the charges, with three people now accused of being 'organizers' and facing huge sentences..
It should be noted that it is a record-breaker for another reason as well. Of the eight defendants, a large number, including Ibragimov and the third person accused of 'organizing' a Hizb ut-Tahrir group, Suleyman (Marlen) Asanov, were active in Crimean Solidarity. This civic initiative, which helps political prisoners and their families, and also circulates information about repression, has come under heavy attack by the Russian occupation regime. There are very strong grounds for believing that the men now in prison have been targeted as Crimean Solidarity activists.
All eight men were also informed on 23 February 2019 that they are being charged with 'planning to violently seize power' (under Article 278). This new charge is not based on any evidence about the men and simply follows from the Supreme Court's ruling in 2003 that secretly declared Hizb ut-Tahrir a 'terrorist organization'.
Six of the men were arrested on 11 October 2017 after armed searches that traumatized the men's children but found nothing but some religious literature. http://khpg.org/en/index.php?id=1526908240 was immediately designated 'organizer', with Belyalov, Ibragimov, Ernest Ametov; Seiran Saliev and Server Zekeryaev all charged with 'involvement' in Hizb ut-Tahrir.
As mentioned, most of them were unquestionably involved in Crimean Solidarity which Russia had begun persecuting. On 21 May, 2018, more armed searches were carried out, with Server Mustafaev, Coordinator of Crimean Solidarity, and Edem Smailov (who had also been involved in Crimean Solidarity activities) arrested and charged with 'involvement' in the same 'case' as the other six men.
All of the men are married, with children, most very small. None is accused of any crime as understood in a democratic country, yet under Russian occupation, they are facing from 10 years' imprisonment to life.

Q: Is it possible to pass a value to the SelectMethod of a Repeater? ASP.Net 4.5 introduces new ways to bind data to controls like the Repeater through the SelectMethod property:
<asp:Repeater runat="server" ItemType="MyData.Reference"
      SelectMethod="GetReferences">

calls the Codebehind method
public IEnumerable<Reference> GetReferences()

In the scenario of nested repeaters, is it possible to pass a parameter to this select method somehow, so that it fetches different data depending on the Item of the outer repeater?
Example:
<asp:Repeater runat="server" ItemType="MyData.Reference"
        SelectMethod="GetReferences(Item.ID)">

should be calling
public IEnumerable<Reference> GetReferences(int id)

I know this can be achieved through ItemDataBound events, but I would like to use the much simpler and cleaner syntax of SelectMethod and ItemType.
Does the SelectMethod allow parameter passing somehow?
If not, is there another clean way to get the value from the outer Repeater Item within my SelectMethod?

A: While waiting for answers, I played around a bit and found the following solution.
It might not be the best way to do it, but so far I have found no problems with it and it's pretty straigtforward, so I'll just throw it out there.
<asp:Repeater runat="server" ItemType="MyData.Reference"
     DataSource='<%# GetReferences(Item.ID) %>'>

Essentially what I do here is replace the SelectMethod with DataSource (Intellisense will not suggest it, but it works nonetheless).
This way I can pass a value to the GetReferences method and then uses the return value for model binding.
So far this is the shortest solution I came across.

A: Here is how you do it:
In your outer repeater, place a hidden field, and name a selectmethod for inner repeater:
<asp:Repeater SelectMethod="GetTopLevelStuff">
   <ItemTemplate>
       <asp:HiddenField runat="server" ID="ItemId" Value="<%# Item.ID %>"/>
       <asp:Repeater SelectMethod="GetSubItems">
           <ItemTemplate>Template code for sub-items here</ItemTemplate
       </asp:Repeater>
   </ItemTemplate
</asp:Repeater>

Then, here's the not-so-well-documented-magic:
 public IQueryable<SubItem> GetSubItems([Control("ItemId")] int itemId)
    {
        return yourDataStore.GetSubItems(itemId);
    }

The valueprovider in this case can also take a propertyname, useful when using listboxes to get "SelectedValue".
I found your question, did as you did, then I tried this solution instead which works just as well but is much cleaner and more according to the idea of the concept, it seems.

A: Take a look at the Exercise 1: Model Binding in ASP.NET Web Forms -> Task 3 – Value Providers in Model Binding tutorial.
It is possible to define a some kind of the Control Select Parameter within the SelectMethod signature.

A: You can use Value Providers
Example:
public IQueryable<Category> GetCategories([Control]int? minProductsCount)
{
}

This a list of ValueProviders:

*

*CompositeValueProvider. Represents a value provider whose values come from a list of value providers that implements the IEnumerable interface.

*QueryStringValueProvider Represents a value provider for query strings that are contained in a NameValueCollection object.

*RouteDataValueProvider Represents a value provider for route data that is contained in an object that implements the IDictionary(Of TKey, TValue) interface.

*ControlValueProvider Represents a value provider for control values.

*CookieValueProvider Represents a value provider for cookie values.

*FormValueProvider Represents a value provider for form values.

*ProfileValueProvider Represents a value provider for profile values.

*UserProfileValueProvider Represents a value provider for user profiles.

*ViewStateValueProvider Represents a value provider for view state values.

By dennisporetsky	Classics, Fiction
D.H. Lawrence, an underrated author from the canon of the early 20th century English writers. A most prolific author, who in his short lifespan created numerous works of fiction, critiques, and essays, challenged the industrial and military norms plaguing his lands of northern England, and shred them with his words. Suffered punishment for his courage of transcending the rules, Lawrence's topics of sexuality, his focus on horrible conditions of the industrial age and the narrow scope of its inhabitants, caused his work, The Rainbow, to suffer backlash and be suppressed by censorship, forever to be rejected and exiled from the country he called home. Lawrence opened the conditions of England to the world, at the expanse of suffering banishment.
The Rainbow a report on family life in rural England, during the early 20th century. A saga that spans three generations of the Lensky women, and, their infiltration of the English household through the bond of the Brangwen linage. Lydia Lensky is the outsider, an educated women fighting the injustices of government from her early beginnings, in country side Poland. Through all her misfortunes, that leave her at the mercy of the world, with a child in tow, she maintains strength and self respect. A wild animal never to be tamed and demanding respect, she captures the attention of Tom Brangwen, a man of a respected hard working well off English family. The first battles of family life as Tom knows them, are staged in this household and are a foreshadowing of future battles to be fought in the lives of the women in her lineage. Eventually leading to Ursula, the perfect storm of strength and determination, unwavering and determined. The Lensky women are vehicles used by D.H. Lawrence to invade the England of his youth, and challenge its conduct, with a fresh perspective and strong determination.
In the underbelly of the book runs the theme of revolt against confinement of the individual soul, held down by the government's systematic approach toward the improvement of the whole, shackling the individual spirit. The book strives to shed light on the individual struggle to express it self and soar out of the death trap, brought on by the habitual course of life, as encouraged by the masses under the spell of industrialization. The values and principles of the socialist life are exposed then challenged. The whole portrayed as a disgusting entrapment in constant motion never reaching any purpose, lost in the mundane, lost in the filthy smoke of the factories and dark mining coal mines.
"But she must get up again and look down from her foot-hold of sunshine, down and away at the patterned, level earth, with its villages and its smoke and its energy. So shortsighted the train seemed, running to the distance, so terrifying in their littleness the villages, with such pettiness in their activity.
Skrebensky wandered dazed, not knowing where he was or what he was doing with her. All her passion seemed to be to wander up there on the downs, and when she must descend to earth, she was heavy. Up there she was exhilarated and free. (P.438)
The mass portrayed as zombies worried too much about personal status within the whole, always protective of themselves. Never to reveal any human element in their approach to fellow men.
This is sharply portrayed through the conduct teachers have toward the students. In the academic eye (D.H. Lawrence became a teacher himself at an early age) the children are evil vermin that must be beaten into obedience. The rough edges sandpapered to make perfect cylinders that will fit the engines of societal factories. The conduct is perpetuated by the head of the school, Mr.Hardy. A representation of the head of the state, he allows for no feeling or compassion. He is cold as a stone, made clear by his conduct towards all new teachers and students.
"Ursula was rather frightened by his mechanical ignoring of her, and his directness of statement. It was something new to her. She had never been treated like this before, as if she did not count, as if she were addressing a machine." (P.350)
Mr. Hardy in essence takes all personal conduct out of the children and teachers as well. He will not allow for any freedom of feelings or understanding. Only strict obedience to the systematic whole is respected. The self is beaten out of the teachers and trickles down to the future working class, discouraging self expressions and compassion.
"She must during the next week, watch over her books, and punish any fault. Her soul decided it coldly. Her personal desire was dead for that day at least. She must have nothing more of herself in school. She was to be Standard Five teacher only. That was her duty. In school she was nothing but Standard Five teacher. Ursula Brangwen must be excluded. "
The downfall of Ursula's predecessors, her mother Ana and Lydia her grandmother, is their need for intimacy and human connection. Excessive lust and sexual intercourse being prohibited in literature, part of a governmental censorship, is the device that Lawrence employs in the story that brings order to the Brangwen household. It's the underlying dark passion that tames the souls in the night, having a strong and powerful force. No matter how far the souls drift apart during the arguments that inhibit a new and budding household, the sexual passion glues everything back in place. Through it the Lensky lineage is tamed by the Brangwen men, until Ursula arrives – an ungovernable peak of the collision of separate forces. She is the first product of the culmination of Brangwen and Lensky. Too powerful for lust to tame answering to a greater force – the moon, drawing her energy from the natural environment.
"Skrebensky, like a load stone weighed on her, the weight of his presence detained her. She felt the burden of him, the blind, persistent, inert burden. He was inert, and he weighed upon her. She sighed in pain. Oh, for the coolness and entire liberty and brightness of the moon. Oh for the cold liberty to be herself, to do entirely as she liked. She wanted to get right away. She felt like bright metal weighted down by dark, impure magnetism. He was the dross, people were the dross. If she could but get away to the clean free moonlight." (P.300)
Every great force comes with consequences. Characters must exhibit great strength to draw on such powers and advance societal norms further. The lack of understanding from the surrounding citizens, results in societal punishment, refusing to welcome change and a uprootedness to their beliefs, way of life. Ursula's consequences are a result of harboring a view of life far too advanced for the current times and executing on them with determination, throwing caution to the wind. Only upon losing everything do question of being too proud and self centeredness trouble her. In the end she is broken and turns the blame inward. She didn't choose the moon, and perhaps without it she might have fallen prey to lust, might have been conquered through passion, might have led the normal life of rural England, but the world, chose her to lead society further, to establish the foundation for feminist values. It gave her a foundation too strong for temptations of the world to conquer, and left her to suffer the consequences.
In Ursula one sees the embodiment of D.H. Lawrence, a boy from a mining town in England, a teacher in his youth, escaping England' system of exploitation. The battle within Ursula must have also raged within Lawrence. Unlike Ursula, Lawrence was able to escape the confines of England and spend a life of traveling and writing and chasing his dreams. This didn't make the burden of expatriation any less severe. His works only widened the distance between the man and home, every page making the welcome less and less. All his works where a direct challenge for change, a change that landed him outside the borders. Hence we are left with a direct caricature of life in England in the early 20th century, that spokes the sharp truth, taking no regard for censorship, while at the same time showing appreciation and finding beauty in all scenes dear to him.

Hook, Line, and Slasher: Hookman is Terrific and Terrifying
By Anne Paglia
Photo source: Isabel Lord
By spilling forth everything meant to be contained in the fragile receptacles of human bodies—blood, guts, brains, you name it—the slasher genre appeals to the perverse in people. Hookman, the latest production by the Black Theatre Ensemble, does just that, but with a culturally conscious twist. Written by Lauren Yee, Hookman sheds more than blood onto the Village C stage: it unleashes the terrors of a young girl's mind.
The play begins with an eruption of "Lose My Breath" by Destiny's Child from a car stereo. Lexi (Carmen Livesay [COL '17]) and Jess (KC Pietro [COL '19]) drive distractedly to the movies, reunited during the first break of their freshman year. Fistfuls of In-N-Out fries wander off course from Jess's mouth and drop to the floor, while a substance which may or may not be ketchup stains her shirt and seat. Jess stayed local for college, but Lexi decided to go to Georgetown, and this geographical riff has had an evident effect on their friendship. This scene, animated by fast food and early 2000's pop, is revisited throughout the duration of the play. Each time the cast brings Lexi's bright-red car back on stage, it signals that crucial information is about to surface.
While the interactions between Lexi and Jess are complex, loving but tense, Jess' forthcoming accident is predictable.True to slasher style, the teenage girl is the first to meet an untimely death. It immediately becomes clear, however, that Yee is much too clever to use this trope haphazardly. Her self-awareness unfolds when the play enters the territory of trauma and rape, all while honoring the conventions of horror.
The script is superb—it delicately maneuvers through challenging topics and is cognizant of its collegiate audience. Director Cristina M. Ibarra (COL '17) even made Georgetown-specific modifications (half of the play is set on campus). References to the Hilltop make the events feel disturbingly familiar and serve as a reminder that even Hoyas are not immune to the mental health issues that Lexi faces everyday.
And in Hookman, Lexi quite literally faces her issues. They take the form of a Michael Myers-type horror known as Hookman. Whenever Hookman appears, she is forced to confront the guilt caused by Jess' death and the anxiety planted in her by rape. Lexi does not fear because Hookman exists; Hookman exists because she fears. He is the manifestation of her trauma, a projection of her mind. When this realization descends, a question arises: Will Lexi ever escape him?
The state of Lexi's personal relationships is just as ambiguous. Broken dialogue and misunderstandings fracture intimacy between characters. Whether this lack of social fulfillment is the product of Lexi's insecurities and mental distress or the permeation of technology, it is unclear. Lexi's initial reaction to Jess's death contributes to this alienation, too, but the selflessness she musters towards the end of the play restores hope.
Despite the heavy content, Hookman does not sink into despair. The play has the pace of a thriller and intimacy of a haunted house—the latter thanks to the compact Village C Theatre where the show is in repertory with The Last Days of Judas Iscariot. For this reason, the set is simple, consisting of a dorm room and a movable car. Nonetheless, it suffices for the play's purpose. Hookman's sound design, devised by Daniel Wheelock (COL '19), is thoughtful and effective. Wheelock's original score adds to the suspense, as does the music placement. The lighting, on the other hand, demonstrates similar vision but suffers in execution. In one somewhat clumsy scene, Lexi's boyfriend Sean is supposed to be present only on a computer screen, but the effects leave this fact unclear. Besides such occasional confusion, the effects work well to enhance emotion and ensure chills.
The faint of heart will be relieved to know that the blood in Hookman is thinned by hilarity. Hookman himself, played by Mark Camilli (COL '19), manages to be both a horror and a hoot. Camilli's portrayal of Hookman is comi-
cal, but in the midst of the plot, his character retains an air of wickedness. Cristin Crowley (MSB '20) also shines in her role of the annoying girl-next-door, Chloe. Together, Camilli and Crowley allow the audience entrance into the play, breaking the fourth wall in order to tease and taunt viewers.
Ibarra fully understood the limitations of college theatre when choosing Hookman. It is neither overly ambitious nor inaccessible, sure to satisfy even those reluctant theater-goers in the audience. If one is simply looking for a thrill, Hookman will deliver. But if one is up to the greater challenge of engaging the issues the play puts forward, Hookman will be much, much more than the sum of its scares.
