Never Saw Me Coming by Vera Kurian
Chloe was admitted to a number of colleges, but she chose this particular college because she would receive a full scholarship and get to participate in a study for psychopaths. She also chose this college because a boy who raped her when she was twelve would be attending, and she planned to kill him.
Will had no clue what she was up to and didn't recognize her until one night that Chloe drugged him and attempted to kill him at a party.
As all this was going on, a serial killer was murdering students in the psychopath program. Chloe was worried she would be next.
We follow Chloe as she tries to find out who the killer is and as she is protecting herself. She does risky things.
I honestly didn't like any of the characters, and the story line was just ok for me.
My rating is upped from a 2/5 to a 3/5 because the author put so much time and work into the book.
Mystica September 9, 2021 at 2:20 AM
It sounds very twisted which is I suppose right for a psychopathic killer, but maybe hard reading.
Elizabeth September 9, 2021 at 7:37 AM
It wasn't an enjoyable read for me.
lsmoore49 September 9, 2021 at 9:12 AM
I didn't like this one either. I marked it DNF.
Elizabeth September 9, 2021 at 12:57 PM
It was difficult to like.
Laurel-Rain Snow September 9, 2021 at 6:40 PM
Oh, yes, this one sounds good!
Elizabeth September 9, 2021 at 7:36 PM
It wasn't a favorite.

The Misanthrope
Previewed 7 December 2009, Opened 17 December 2009, Closed 13 March 2010 at the Harold Pinter Theatre in London
A major revival of Molière's comedy The Misanthrope in London starring Keira Knightley, Damian Lewis, Tara Fitzgerald and Dominic Rowan.
Molière's The Misanthrope has been transported from 17th century Paris to modern-day London where Alceste is a famous British playwright disillusioned and angry with the hypocrisy, shallowness and vanity of the contemporary world. Vowing to reject society, Alceste's plans are derailed when he falls madly in love with Jennifer. An ambitious American film star and darling of the social scene, she may prove to be his biggest challenge yet.
The cast for Molière's The Misanthrope in London features Keira Knightley as 'Jennifer', Damian Lewis as 'Alceste', Tara Fitzgerald and Dominic Rowan, Tim McMullan, Chuk Iwuji, Kelly Price and Nicholas Le Pevost. It is presented in a version by Martin Crimp and is directed by Thea Sharrock with set designs by Hildegard Bechtler, costume designs by AMy Roberts, lighting by Peter Mumford and sound by Ian Dickson.
Keira Knightley's extensive film credits include the award-winning Atonement opposite James McAvoy, The Duchess, Pride And Prejudice and as 'Elizabeth Swann' in the Pirates of the Caribbean movies. She originally established herself as a film actress in the surprise film hit Bend It Like Beckham. Damian Lewis is best known for Band Of Brothers, the Steven Spielberg's award-winning mini series. His most recent London stage credits include Pillars of the Community at the National Theatre's Lyttelton Theatre and Five Gold Rings at the Almeida Theatre. Tara Fitzgerald's extensive credits include playing the role of 'Dr Eve Lockhart' in the BBC Television's popular drama series Waking The Dead. Her London stage credits include A Doll's House at the Donmar Warehouse and And Then There Were None at the Gielgud Theatre. Dominic Rowan's stage credit include A Voyage Around My Father at the Donmar Warehouse and transfer to Wyndham's Theatre, Happy Now? at the National Theatre and As You Like It at Shakespeare's Globe Theatre. His television credits include Catwalk Dogs Lynda La Plante's Trial and Retribution, The Family Man with Trevor Eve and Hearts And Bones.
"The burning question about this latest production of Martin Crimp's mordern take on Moliere's comedy of manners is, obviously, is Keira Knightley any good? In short, yes: she's much better than her (canny) pre-first night pronouncements would have you to believe but - beautiful as she is - she doesn't command as much attention on stage as you'd hope... Damian Lewis relishes his role as self-appointed ranting outcast, delivering Crimp's clever, fluid verse with elan and delightedly toying with the post-modernism of the whole occasion. Thea Sharrock's production has the boldness and vigour that Crimp's script needs, plus an excellent sporting cast. Whether Crimp's update is built to last in the same way as Moliere's classic is doubtful but it makes for a boisterously entertaining evening." The London Metro
"Despite her ladylike looks, 24-year-old Keira Knightley is well known for having a full fruity vocabulary. Here she comfortably, if a bit quietly, brings both together in her first major stage role... Rhyme Writer Martin Crimp has taken Molière's 17th century comedy about the self-centred French court and re-written the story. Remarkably, it's still in rhyme but is now scattered with the F-word and funny asides about the BBC and Andrew Lloyd Webber... Cleverly linked to the 1600s, especially in a great closing scene, Molière will be rocking and rolling (rather than turning) in his grave." The News of the World
"One can see what appealed to Keira Knightley in Moliere's The Misanthrope, with its themes of the transience and vacuousness of society's beautiful people. I fancy the star wanted this play to say something about how she felt about the point she had reached in life... Her beautiful features, which lend themselves so perfectly to close-up shots on screen, seem suddenly diluted and diminished on stage. She does, however, have a presence on the stage and her lines are delivered with sensitivity. The real problem with this production is Martin Crimp, the achingly fashionable playwright charged with adapting and updating this classic... The romance that ensues between a man seeking greater meaning in life and a woman who epitomises meaninglessness is a comical affair in the original, but what has emerged from the other side of Crimp's word- processor looks more like an end-of-term play at a school at the bottom end of the Government's league tables." The Sunday Telegraph
The Misanthrope in London at the Harold Pinter Theatre previewed from 7 December 2009, opened on 17 December 2009 and closed on 13 March 2010.

Construction firm fined after worker severs hand
A construction company has been fined after a worker's hand was severed by an inadequately guarded mitre saw on a construction site in Bolney, Sussex. Lewes Magistrates' Court heard that on 9 January 2019, a worker installing a skirting board in a new build house was using a powered mitre saw to cut material to length. An investigation by the Health and Safety (HSE), found that there was a systematic failure to ensure the mitre saw was properly guarded, and there was insuffic

The government's proposed planning reforms will not speed up housebuilding or make the process cheaper, a cross-party committee of MPs has warned.

A Section 106 is a legal agreement between an applicant seeking planning permission and the
The construction industry has bounced back from the Covid-19 pandemic and should reach 2019 levels of output in 2022, but by 2025, the industry will need to recruit an additional 217,000 new workers just to meet demand. The CITB Construction Skills Network (CSN) 2021-25 report predicts a growing contribution to come from repair, maintenance and improvement work, as retrofitting existing buildings to meet net-zero emissions targets becomes more important. According to the CSN,
Firms must pledge net zero target to bid for public work
Contractors wanting to bid for public works jobs will have to pledge to be net zero by 2050 under new Government rules. From 30 September, contractors seeking to bid projects worth more than £5m a year will have to publish clear and credible carbon reduction plans before being considered.

Sunflower sprouts are delicious, nutty, and full of flavor - you can sauté them with soy sauce and toasted sesame oil, put them fresh in salad, or put them in a sandwich. You can make butter out of the seeds, eat them roasted and salted, or turn them into bird food. According to the National Sunflower Association, the sunflower market was valued at $450 million dollars in 2009.
One sunflower head, if you are growing a large one like the Mammoth varietal, can provide 200-400 seeds - which can all be sprouted. A packet of 20 Mammoth sunflower seeds costs $3.95 (let us say $4). Each seed therefore costs $4/20 = $0.20.
Living life with the seasons is a powerful antidote to the culture of immediate gratification, and for the most part I am content to wait - but sometimes, when I think of all of the sunflowers I could have grown this year, that it is going to take 12 months to get here again, had I only known about this in May, that I really love sunflower sprouts - I am not content to wait.

Junk Jewellery – Flawed, Cracked… But Rare!
I was clearing my dresser (packing stuff) and I came across this collection of rings. Yes, they are a result of my mood-enhancing shopping impulses. Hadn't laid my eyes on some of them for quite a while.
Thought it would be fun to wear each one of them and click a snap… and that also allowed me to try out the Tilt-Shift effect on my Galaxy S2.
These are very nice. I liked the leaf design the most..
Thanks. I have been around. Packing and getting ready to relocate. Spending time with the Nawaab, before I leave Q8 forever. Thought I would start on the blog again after I return to India.
wow, looks cool. btw where did u disappear? i thought u forgot ur id and password.

Home Article Why Are Religious People More Racist?
Why Are Religious People More Racist?
by Gabriel Arana
A recent analysis of religious attitudes by researchers at Duke, USC, and Augsburg College reaches the conclusion that religious people tend to be more racist -- and the more religious you are, the more racist you tend to be. It may come as no surprise that some Christians may not practice what they preach, but what is noteworthy about the study is that it draws a causal link between the structure of religious organizations and racism.
The authors note that religion promotes conformity and respect for tradition. Moreover, it tends to be practiced within race, promoting "in-group identity." Racist attitudes may emerge when "different others" appear to be in competition for resources.
The competing-for-resources analysis is a favorite of evolutionary psychologists, who will invent a Darwinian backstory for all the inane things we do, whether or not they have anything to do with survival. But even if it is true that group membership makes you more likely to denigrate "the other," leaving the analysis at that ignores the role religious ideology plays in promoting prejudice; there are many racially homogenous groups that don't promote racism in the same way. John Shook at the Center for Public Inquiry notes that those who are "spiritual" but do not hew to one religion in particular are not prone to racist beliefs. He suggests why:
Religious agnostics would be people who combine a religious/spiritual attitude in living life with a humble admission that they don't know if their approach is the only right way. Religious agnostics are pluralistic -- they have no problem admiring how different people can enjoy different religious paths. And it is precisely this lack of dogmatism which permits humanistic values to shine through. Religious exclusivism defeats humanistic universalism, but religious pluralism enhances humanistic universalism.
As a practical matter, you can't ask every Christian, Muslim, or Jew who believes their faith is the "right" one to abandon this belief, but the antidote to racism in religious communities -- not to mention homophobia -- seems to be a sort of doubt, an acknowledgment that those who do not practice your religion are, like you, pursuing happiness and fulfillment in good faith, and not necessarily going to hell for it. But the ability to put yourself in another's shoes -- "imagination" as philosopher Martha Nussbaum calls it -- is not just a palliative for racial and religious conflict: It's the fundamental agreement in a pluralistic society, which is why the rise of religious fundamentalism in the U.S. is so troubling on many fronts.

In 2017 the section of the French Civil Code on the law of contract was amended and restructured in its entirety. The reform's objectives were to increase legal certainty regarding unilateral promises in agreements made after 1 October 2016.
Shareholders' agreements frequently contain unilateral promises to sell or buy shares of the company. The Civil Code now defines the unilateral promise. This is the contract by which one party, the promisor, grants to the other, the beneficiary, the right to opt for the conclusion of a contract the essential elements of which are determined, and for the formation of which is lacking only the beneficiary's consent (Civil Code Article 1124, paragraph 1).
Forced execution of the promise is not possible if the beneficiary has not exercised the option during the agreed period, because the promise then lapses (Cass, 3rd civ 22-9-2010). It is also not possible when the promise is concluded under a condition precedent, as long as the condition is not fulfilled.
The law now provides that the revocation of its promise by the promisor during the time left to the beneficiary to opt does not prevent the formation of the promised contract (Civil Code Article 1124, paragraph 2). Previously, in the absence of a text, the French High court allowed the promise to revoke its promise during the option period without the beneficiary being able to request the forced execution of the contract (Case 13-9-2011 no. -19.526), the beneficiary can only then claim damages (CA Paris 27-9-2012 No. 11-20031).
The new provisions apply to unilateral promises made after 1 October 2016. One can imagine that the Court of Cassation, reversing jurisprudence, applies the new legal solution to promises made before that date.
Still, execution in kind must be possible. If the promisor has sold the promised shares to a third party, the sale will be void only in the event that he knew the existence of the promise (Civil Code Article 1124, paragraph 3). In the opposite case, the forced execution of the promise will prove impossible and the beneficiary will only be able to obtain damages. To prove the third party's knowledge of the promise, the beneficiary will encounter the same difficulties as those already exposed.

The H&M Spring/Summer catalogue dropped through my door yesterday morning, and as I flicked through it over my morning coffee, my eyes zeroed in on these purple suede high heeled sandals, which I immediately had to go and find on the website.
These actually looked a little bit nicer in the photo in the magazine than they do on the website (funny how that happens sometimes, isn't it?) but they're still rather special, and a pretty good deal for just £39.99 – especially given that they're real suede. I always used to think of H&M shoes as mostly cheap ballet flats and synthetic leather (which is possibly why I have a tendency to overlook them completely and head straight to the clothing section), but lately they've been using real leather and suede much more often, and have also released quite a few really great styles, so I'm impressed.
This top comes in black, white and stripe – the stripe version shown above is currently out of stock online, but H&M products tend to come in and out of stock really frequently, so I recommend checking back often. My parents' bought me the white version as part of my Christmas present, and I loved it so much I had to buy the other two as well. These tops are a really thick, stretchy material which keeps its shape, and is really easy to wear. I love off-the-shoulder designs like this because they're that bit more glamorous than regular tops, but still relatively casual.
For those who like the nautical look, meanwhile (that would be me, then…), this anchor print sweater would be perfect for a chilly spring morning: there's also a red and white stripe version, too!

After Rivals Pounce, Yang Explains His Family's Escape From New York
Andrew Yang could be days away from declaring himself a New York City mayoral candidate, but he's already found himself on the defensive over his decision to spend significant parts of the pandemic in the Hudson Valley.
In an article published Monday in The New York Times, Mr. Yang addressed his decision to spend time during the pandemic outside of New York City in a tone that struck some political observers as discordant for anyone hoping to lead a city grappling with catastrophic loss fueled by the pandemic.
The moment offered a preview of the challenges that may await Mr. Yang, a former presidential candidate who would be the most prominent figure in the race, but who is a newcomer to the unforgiving landscape and scrutiny of New York City politics.
"Can you imagine trying to have two kids on virtual school in a two-bedroom apartment, and then trying to do work yourself?" Mr. Yang said in the initial interview.
"Yes, actually I can," Scott M. Stringer, the city comptroller and a mayoral contender, responded on Twitter, in a reference to his own two young children.
Indeed, Mr. Yang's remarks shattered the sense of relative comity in the mayoral field, at a time when many candidates hope to be broadly acceptable to their opponents' supporters ahead of ranked-choice voting to decide the June primary. A torrent of barely veiled criticism played out on Twitter.
"I spent all of 2020 in NYC, living with THREE generations under one roof, AND running a campaign from home," Dianne Morales, a former nonprofit executive, wrote on Twitter.
Maya Wiley, the former MSNBC analyst and counsel for Mayor Bill de Blasio, posted a video of eerily empty streets, save for the sirens, a scene familiar to New Yorkers who were in the city in the spring. And the Brooklyn borough president, Eric Adams, another mayoral contender, said that "at this pivotal moment in our city's history, we deserve better than out-of-touch politicians."
Mr. Yang was in New York last spring as the city shut down, he has said, and he has been back and forth between the city and the Hudson Valley since. But he also allowed that he spent "more time upstate than in the city over the last number of months" as he also spent time as a presidential and Senate campaign surrogate.
In a statement Monday afternoon, Mr. Yang sought to give more personal context around the decision to spend significant time in New Paltz, N.Y., rather than his apartment in Hell's Kitchen. He has signaled that his campaign would center on anti-poverty themes, and he nodded to that ambition as he alluded to the charitable and nonprofit work he has done in the city.
"Every New York parent has struggled with educating our children in a time of Covid," he said. After schools shut down, "we took our two kids, including my autistic son, to upstate New York to help him adapt to our new normal. Evelyn and I know how lucky we are to have that option, which is why I've committed the past several years of my life to lifting up working families and eliminating poverty."
Mr. Yang is hardly the only New Yorker to spend time outside the city over the last year. Some wealthier New Yorkers who had the option to leave did so, at least temporarily; the vast majority of city residents remained.
Nor is he the only possible mayor to have a home outside the city. The former mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, for instance, spent many weekends at a waterfront estate in Bermuda.
But a number of seasoned New York political figures signaled that Mr. Yang's living arrangement over the last year may give voters pause.
"We all stayed here and fought for New York," said the Manhattan borough president, Gale Brewer. "The people I respect are the people who stayed here."
Hank Sheinkopf, a longtime Democratic consultant, added, "This is not an auspicious beginning to an upset mayoral race. He's upset people as opposed to winning an upset mayoral race."
Leah D. Daughtry, a veteran Democratic Party strategist with close ties to New York politics, said she did not believe his remarks or his location last year were "disqualifying" — but they do create a "larger hurdle."
"Anybody who's running for mayor, no matter their name recognition, is going to have to demonstrate to people that they understand the problems of folks" in the five boroughs, she said. "It's not like anyplace else."

Portable Appliance Testing in Watford – or PAT Testing in Watford – is as essential as elsewhere in the UK. Every company in both the private and public sector needs to carry out inspections on equipment used by staff, clients and customers. Regulations were introduced in 1989 concerning work-related electrical equipment. The law applies equally to fixed and to portable equipment, where the portable equipment is connected to the fixed electrical equipment. It's required that the equipment should be maintained to prevent danger. Every self-employed person, and employer must comply with the provision of the regulations.
Today, more than two decades after the introduction of the legal requirements, PAT Testing in Watford is more important than ever. Removing danger over the use of any electrical equipment has become paramount in the move from paper to virtual documentation. For example, with advances in technology, legal compliance in other sectors means that digital signatures are now the norm where handwritten signatures were acceptable in the past. Handheld and portable electrical devices are themselves often used to make checks on inventory and to inspect equipment. These devices must themselves be checked to ensure that they are safe to use, so PAT Testing in Watford is a legal requirement. Advice from the Institution of Engineering and Technology (the IET) and the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) suggests that in the case of the field of construction, inspection and testing should be carried out at three month intervals for certain types of appliance. Other fields should carry out inspections annually and testing less frequently in some cases. Offices, shops, hotels and schools are all covered in the guidance stipulations. In effect, the intensity and depth of testing and inspection depends on the risk that the appliance will develop faults.
Obviously, the nature of the electrical equipment and its environment will play major factors in the potential development of problems. For example, a dusty environment such as a building site may require more thorough maintenance of equipment than more hygienic environments. However, even a sterile laboratory environment that produces high-value medications may require the maintenance of electrical equipment as a breakdown will be more costly.
Employees should be made aware when not to use portable equipment. For example, if the power cable to a laptop is frayed, or the plug on another piece of equipment is cracked, then that appliance should not be used until the fault is fixed. Users should be made aware how to make their own checks and carry out minor tests on equipment before they use it if necessary. Statistically, the vast majority of problems with electrical equipment are found with a visual inspection. Faults should be reported to supervising staff or management.
PAT Testing in Watford can be carried out by an external company or it can be carried out by those who work within a company who have been provided with the training to do so. Those with official qualifications and employees who have attended health and safety courses offered by electrical health and safety companies can perform inspections and testing. Outsourcing of PAT testing is common, but compliance officers within a company often receive training in the testing of portable equipment.
What Is PAT Testing and Why Is It Used?
PAT testing is an important testing process in the UK, Republic of Ireland, Australia and New Zealand by which portable appliances are required to be checked for safety standards. The Health and Safety at Work Act of 1974 was the first legislation that required companies to have their electrical equipment tested on a regular basis. The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations of 1999 established further requirements for PAT testing. Health and safety regulations require that portable electrical appliances in the workplace operate in a safe manner that prevents any potential harm to employees. By law, all electrical systems must be properly inspected and tested for defects and safety.
1) Type testing to an appropriate standard. This type involves testing to determine whether the electrical equipment meets the designated requirements. Type testing is frequently performed by external organizations.
2) Production calibration. Production calibration involves testing the electrical appliance during the production of the appliance and before it is released into service. Production testing is important to prevent unsafe appliances from being utilized by workers.
3) In-service testing. In-service testing involves a preliminary inspection, continuity tests, insulation testing and functional checks. In-service testing is performed to provide certainty that electrical appliances are currently in satisfactory condition. If an electrical appliance fails this test, it must either be repaired or replaced.
4) Testing after repair. If an electrical appliance was in unsatisfactory condition and has been repaired, tests must be performed to ensure that the repairs were sufficient to restore the appliance to satisfactory condition.
The level of testing required for portable electrical appliances is largely dependent on the risk associated with the specific appliance. To ensure that electrical appliances are safe in the home and in the workplace, it is important to perform PAT testing on a regular basis. This can often be done on site by calling out a PAT tester, many can be found online in local areas.
The Health and Safety Executive in the UK, and enactment, for example, the Electricity at Work Regulations, express that electrical apparatuses ought to be kept up to guarantee that they are sheltered and represent no danger of damage to the people utilizing them. The main genuine approach to conform to the different bits of enactment is known as Pat Testing and in London, it is an imperative part of any wellbeing and security strategy inside the work environment.
With more than a quarter century of reported mischances which include electrical gear finishing in a casualty, measurements demonstrate that in circumstances where PAT testing does not occur in London, electrical hardware has neglected to be accurately kept up. Furthermore, episodes of flame often begin by electrical machines either not being kept in great condition or by gear being utilized for purposes other than proposed or by being put away in unacceptable conditions.
The level to which the hardware must be have PAT Testing performed, relies on upon the sort of apparatus, the nature and area in which it is utilized and the probability of it getting to be flawed. The Health and Safety at Work Act puts a legitimate commitment on businesses and the independently employed in circumstances where electrical apparatuses are utilized by representatives as a part of the working environment. This additionally applies to such places where repairs or administrations of hardware are completed, or by people in general for instance, in shops, lodgings, schools, medicinal focuses, and rental shops with gear for contract.
On the off chance that you fall into any of the aforementioned classes or one comparative, then you have to guarantee your versatile electric machines are tried as needs be.
How would you choose which organization you ought to use to do your PAT Testing?
All things considered, there are a couple of things to discover preceding selecting a temporary worker.
The firm you are thinking about utilizing ought to be licensed by an outer association, for example, NICEIC. This association has strict measures and any licensed organization will have the capacity to supply you with a full strategy explanation and a danger appraisal of any work waiting be done to guarantee the gear is kept up to the required level.
In spite of the fact that the specialists playing out the testing are not lawfully obliged to hold City and Guilds 2377 authentications, capabilities of this kind are prone to energize your trust in the PAT Testing organization.
You can likewise approach the organization to give references to you of individuals who have utilized their administrations as a part of the past. You can then get in touch with them and request their assessment of the demonstrable skill of the organization.
Whilst having your hardware tried, you would prefer not to lessen your business turnover so it is key to have the capacity to keep your business running all through this timeframe. This should be possible by picking a PAT Testing organization who are adaptable and arranged to work to your necessities along these lines bringing on as meager disturbance as could be expected under the circumstances to the working day.

Intuitivamente, una secuencia algorítmicamente aleatoria (o secuencia aleatoria) es una secuencia infinita de dígitos binarios que aparece aleatoria a cualquier algoritmo. La definición no puede aplicarse igualmente bien a las secuencias en cualquier conjunto finito de caracteres, pero ingenuamente aplica en la práctica. Las secuencias aleatorias son los objetos principales de estudio en la teoría algorítmica de la información.

Como los diferentes tipos de algoritmos se consideran a veces, que van desde algoritmos con límites específicos en el tiempo de recorrido a los algoritmos que pueden hacer preguntas de un oráculo, existen distintas nociones de aleatoriedad. El más común de ellos es conocido como aleatoriedad Martin-Löf (o 1-azar), pero las formas más fuertes y más débiles de la aleatoriedad también existen. El término "azar" se utiliza para referirse a una secuencia sin aclaración se toma generalmente para significar "Martin-Löf azar" (que se define más adelante).

Debido a secuencias infinitas de dígitos binarios pueden ser identificados con números reales en el intervalo de unidad, secuencias aleatorias binarias son a menudo llamados números reales aleatorios. Adicionalmente, las secuencias infinitas binarios corresponden a funciones características de conjuntos de números naturales; por lo que dichas secuencias puede ser visto como un conjunto de números naturales.

La clase de aleatoria de secuencias de Martin-Löf (binario) se denota por RAND o MLR.

Historia

La primera definición adecuada de una secuencia aleatoria fue propuesta por Per Martin-Löf en 1966. Investigadores anteriores tales como Richard von Mises había tratado de formalizar la noción de una prueba de aleatoriedad a fin de definir una secuencia aleatoria como uno que pasaron todas las pruebas de aleatoriedad, sin embargo, la noción precisa de una prueba de aleatoriedad se dejó vago. Idea clave Martin-Löf era utilizar la teoría de la computación para definir formalmente la noción de una prueba de aleatoriedad. Esto contrasta con la idea de aleatoriedad en probabilidad; que en teoría, no hay ningún elemento particular de un espacio de la muestra puede ser dicho para ser al azar.

La aleatoriedad Martin-Löf desde entonces se ha demostrado que admitir muchas caracterizaciones equivalentes - en términos de compresión, tests de aleatoriedad y juegos de azar - que se parecen poco hacia afuera a la definición original, pero cada uno de los cuales satisfacer nuestra noción intuitiva de las propiedades que las secuencias aleatorias deben tiene: secuencias aleatorias debe ser incompresible, deben pasar las pruebas estadísticas de aleatoriedad, y debe ser difícil ganar dinero apostando a ellos. La existencia de estos múltiples definiciones de Martin-Löf aleatoriedad y la estabilidad de estas definiciones bajo diferentes modelos de computación, dan evidencia de que Martin-Löf aleatoriedad es una propiedad fundamental de las matemáticas y no un accidente de la modelo en particular Martin-Löf de. La tesis de que la definición de Martin-Löf aleatoriedad "correctamente" captura la noción intuitiva de aleatoriedad que se ha denominado la Tesis de Martin-Löf-Chaitin, sino que es algo similar a la tesis de Church-Turing.

Tres definiciones equivalentes

La definición original de Martin-Löf de una secuencia aleatoria fue en términos de las cubiertas nulas constructivas; él define que una secuencia será aleatoria si no está contenido en ningún dicha cobertura. Leonid Levin y Claus-Peter Schnorr demostraron una caracterización en términos de la complejidad de Kolmogorov: una secuencia es aleatoria si hay una cota uniforme sobre la compresibilidad de sus segmentos iniciales. Schnorr dio una definición equivalente tercero en términos de martingalas (un tipo de estrategia de apuestas). El libro de Li y Vitanyi de "Introducción a la complejidad de Kolmogorov y sus aplicaciones" es la introducción estándar a estas ideas.

 Complejidad de Kolmogorov (Schnorr 1973, Levin 1973): se puede considerar como un límite inferior sobre la compresibilidad algorítmica de una secuencia finita (de caracteres o dígitos binarios). Se asigna a cada secuencia  w un número natural K(w) que, intuitivamente, mide la longitud mínima de un programa informático (escrito en algún lenguaje de programación fija) que no tiene entrada y salida W cuando se ejecuta. Dado un número natural c y una secuencia w, decimos que W es C- incompresible si

Una secuencia infinita S es una aleatoriedad Martin-Löf si y sólo si existe una constante c tal que todos los prefijos finito S son c- incompresibles.

 Cubiertas nulas constructivas (Martin-Löf 1966): Esta es la definición original de Martin-Löf. Para una cadena finita binaria w dejamos Cw denote que el cilindro es generado por w. Este es el conjunto de todas las secuencias infinitas que comienzan con w, que es un conjunto de base abierta en Cantor espacio. La medida μ producto (Cw) del cilindro generado por w se define como 2-| W |. Cada subconjunto abierto de Cantor espacio es la unión de una secuencia numerable de abiertos disjuntos conjuntos básicos, y la medida de un conjunto abierto es la suma de las medidas de cualquier secuencia de este tipo. Un conjunto abierto efectiva es un conjunto abierto que es la unión de la secuencia de conjuntos abiertos básicos determinados por una secuencia recursivamente numerable de cadenas binarias. Una cubierta constructivo nulo o conjunto eficaz medida 0 es una sucesión recursivamente enumerable  de eficaces conjuntos abiertos tales que  y  para cada número natural i. Cada cobertura nula efectiva determina un  conjunto de medida 0, es decir, la intersección de los conjuntos .

Una secuencia se define para ser aleatoria Martin-Löf si no está contenido en ningún  establecer determinados por una cobertura nula constructiva.

 Martingala constructivas (Schnorr 1971): Una martingala es una función  de tal manera que, para todas las cadenas finitas W, , , donde  es la concatenación de las cadenas a y b.
Esto se llama la "condición de equidad"; una martingala es visto como una estrategia de apuestas, y requiere la condición anterior que desempeña mejor contra probabilidades justas. Una martingala d, se dice que sucede en una secuencia S si  donde  es la primera n bits de S. Una martingala d es "constructiva" (o también conocido como "débilmente computable", "inferior semi-computable" o, "subcomputable") si existe una función computable  de modo que, para todas las cadenas binarias finitas W
  para todos los enteros positivos t,

 Tengáse en cuenta que la definición de martingala utilizada aquí es ligeramente diferente de la utilizada en la teoría de la probabilidad. Esta definición de martingala tiene una condición de equidad similares, lo que también indica que el valor esperado después de algún observación es el mismo que el valor antes de la observación, dado el historial previo de observaciones. La diferencia es que en la teoría de probabilidades, la historia previa de observaciones sólo se refiere a la historia de capital, mientras que aquí la historia se refiere a la secuencia exacta de 0 y 1 en la cadena.)

Interpretaciones de las definiciones

La caracterización de la complejidad de Kolmogorov transmite la intuición de que una secuencia aleatoria es incompresible: sin prefijo puede ser producido por un programa mucho más corto que el prefijo.

La caracterización de cobertura nula transmite la intuición de que un número real aleatorio no debe tener ninguna propiedad que es "poco frecuente". Cada conjunto 0 medida se puede considerar como una propiedad común. No es posible para una secuencia que se encuentran en ninguna medida 0 conjuntos, porque cada conjunto de un punto tiene una medida de 0. La idea de  Martin-Löf era limitar la definición para medir 0 conjuntos que son efectivamente descriptibles, la definición de una cobertura nula efectiva determina una colección numerable de medida efectivamente descriptible 0 conjuntos y define una secuencia para ser aleatorio si no se encuentra en ninguna de estos conjuntos particulares medida 0. Desde la unión de una colección numerable de conjuntos de medida 0 tiene medida 0, esta definición lleva inmediatamente al teorema de que no es una medida un conjunto de secuencias aleatorias. Tenga en cuenta que si identificamos el espacio de Cantor de secuencias binarias con el intervalo [0,1] de los números reales, la medida en espacio Cantor está de acuerdo con la medida de Lebesgue.

La caracterización martingala transmite la intuición de que no existe un procedimiento eficaz debe ser capaz de hacer dinero apostando en contra de una secuencia aleatoria. La  martingala d es una estrategia de apuestas. d lee una cadena finita w de dinero y las apuestas en el siguiente bit. Apuesta alguna fracción de su dinero que el siguiente bit será 0, y luego el resto de su dinero que el siguiente bit sea 1. d duplica el dinero que se coloca en la parte que realmente ocurrió, y se pierde el resto. d(w) es la cantidad de dinero que tiene después de ver la cadena w. Dado que la apuesta después de ver la cadena w se puede calcular a partir de la d valores (w), d(w0), y d(w1), el cálculo de la cantidad de dinero que ha es equivalente a calcular la apuesta. La caracterización martingala dice que no implementable estrategia de apuestas por cualquier equipo (incluso en el sentido débil de estrategias constructivas, que no son necesariamente computable) se puede ganar dinero apostando en una secuencia aleatoria.

Roy Babbington
Babbington's bass line CV is impressive including work with Ben Webster, Keith Tippett, Tubby Hayes, Mose Allison, Soft Machine and Gary Burton. "I was 12 when father reckoned that I was at a loose end," he says. At the time his father was playing bass in the local dance band. "He introduced me to the double bass, stood me on a little stool about six inches high, wrote out the scales of C and Db and pretty much left me to it."
Clearly the kid showed promise and Babbington's father took him to Charles Foot's in London where he bought a blonde, birds eye maple plywood bass. "It was my choice," says Babbington. "A young boy looking to impress the world. We were told it was an experimental instrument from the Leipzig music fair – the early days of laminates. As a musical instrument it was a failure."
Babbington's professional career started after reading the Melody Maker. "I saw two jobs advertised for bass players – one in London and one in Aberdeen. I was 17 and went for the one in Aberdeen at the Beach Ballroom." From there he played the Locarno in Glasgow, which was followed by some work for Scottish television.
In 1968, Babbington bought the bass that was to become his regular partner over the next 40 years. "I was playing in Middlesborough at the time and saw this gorgeous instrument – £75 – made by Karl Hammerschmidt in Romania, apparently around 1910. It's beautifully built and because of the wood and the carving, has become the envy of many bass and fiddle players." Although the Hammerschmidt is clearly his favourite, Babbington has also owned five other basses. These include a nameless German bass from the 1920s – which he still owns. "It's very good under the bow and very soft on the thumb. It has had many repairs to the front, but still comes back singing. I've also had a Hawkes Concert, which was very good for Philharmonic work. And then there was the one that came out of a scout hut – all taped up. I had that rebuilt by George Blackburn."
So what's Babbington's string choice. "My first strings were Scandinavian steel Lycons. They were lovely to work with and didn't tear your fingers to pieces – lovely and smooth – silk under the finger." Babbington moved away from Lycon strings as the D string used to buzz as it got overworked – and this was no good for session work in the studio. So he changed to Thomastik Weich "which I still persist with." And what about bows? "I use a Vickers bow with a silver frog – quite heavy and very well balanced. You can get right down to triple 'ppp' – right down to the tip without it bouncing off the strings as some lighter bows do. Play nice and slowly and it still pulls the sound out. You can also use the German grip as well as the French grip – which is quite useful if you want to play something forceful."
I remember seeing Babbington's credit on some early Soft Machine albums, and realise that he must also play bass guitar. "Yes, I do play bass guitar, but it was never intended. I really don't like bass guitars. Whenever I picked one up, I thought horrible – and gave it back." Babbington takes up the story. "In the early-1970s I was booked to support the New Seekers in Middlesborough and I asked a local player whether I could borrow his bass guitar and what turned up was a six string Fender. I became absolutely transfixed by this instrument. I enjoyed it so much that I didn't want to give it back! So as soon as he demanded it back, I was on the next train to London to get myself a six string Fender bass. I got a 1962 model from Pan Music, which I gather is about the best you can get." Babbington has subsequently extended his electric bass arsenal. "I also have a 1982 Squier Precision – I used that on a recent Soft Machine Legacy gig in Spain."
So what strings does Babington wire these machines up with? "I used to have Rotosound flats on the six string, but I have recently gone onto D'Addario half rounds. You get a more gritty sound – and there's no aggravation on the fingers." And for the Precision? I started with Elites, but now it's LaBella – they're very wiry and pull up nicely."
Babbington's got business calls coming in, so we swiftly move on to amplification. "Back in the early days I carried around a massive Leak TL50 with a pre-amp on it and a Marshall 4X12 cabinet. That was my Soft Machine rig in the early-70s and I stopped using that when I stopped using the Fender six string." These days he hires rigs for the big electric gigs. And for the Hammerschmidt? "I have an Underwood pick up on the bridge. It gives you a more fundamental note and less of what's coming from the body, which of course contains more overtones and harmonics." And the amplifier? "To begin with I used a Polytone, but now I use a Gallien Krueger MBE with a 12 inch. I also use this for small gigs on the electric – because linking it into speakers works really well."

Q: How to automatically log in while opening web socket While opening Web Socket I am asked to type my login and password, but at this point I am already logged in. How can I make my app pass credentials while opening Web socket automatically? I am only using basic authentication but I can't find any info where to put Authorization header (or any different solution to my problem).
This pops up while opening Web Socket (basic log in form but in polish):

Code for opening web socket:
  initializeWebSocketConnection(lobbyName: string): void {
    const ws = new SockJS(this.addressStorage.apiAddress + '/socket');
    this.stompClient = Stomp.over(ws);
    // this.stompClient.debug = null;
    const that = this;
    this.stompClient.connect({}, function () {
      that.stompClient.subscribe('/lobby/' + lobbyName, (message) => {
        if (message.body) {
          console.log('socket');
        }
      });
    });
  }

EDIT:
After I have added header to connect() function I still need to login through popup form. Am I missing something or doing it wrong?
changed code:
  initializeWebSocketConnection(lobbyName: string): void {
    const ws = new SockJS(this.addressStorage.apiAddress + '/socket');
    this.stompClient = Stomp.over(ws);
    // this.stompClient.debug = null;
    const that = this;
    const headers = {
      'authorization': this.authManager.basicToken
    };
    this.stompClient.connect(headers, function () {
      that.stompClient.subscribe('/lobby/' + lobbyName, (message) => {
        if (message.body) {
          console.log('socket');
        }
      });
    });
  }

A: The first argument of the connect() function is the header object.
You can add the Authorization in.

Van Houtte brings the fun back to coffee breaks
The brand comes back to TV with a campaign that gives consumers an emotional boost as at-home coffee habits continue.
By Daniel Calabretta
While Canadians were staying home and social distancing, Stéphane Renauld, director of brand management at Keurig Canada, and the marketing team for its Van Houtte brand, thought that despite these times, people will carry on and get through this. As a result, the brand wanted to liven up people's spirits, by encouraging individuals to take the "occasional," fun coffee break.
Renauld says striking the right tone with that kind of idea during a pandemic was a major challenge. But coffee consumption was increasing due to the fact more people were working from home and Canadians were getting used to a new reality of managing their professional and family lives, all under one roof. Even as retail reopenings signal that things are "slowly returning to a new normal" throughout the country, the brand notes that many Canadians will continue to work from and stay at home "for some time." A recent Ipsos poll showed 52% of Canadians are comfortable returning to their places of work, while 38% are saying they're not comfortable and 10% are saying they "definitely would not do it" within the next few weeks. The brand also expects an increase in online sales to be a trend that will stick around.
"We decided that Van Houtte had all the right reasons to come back on TV, with a much more positive message, much more colourful, and say to people, 'you're drinking coffee, and it's fine. But it's fine, also, that your coffee breaks are fun and different than usual,'" Renauld says of the new "Staying Home Has Its Perks" campaign.
Renauld says that during these pandemic months, Van Houtte had also discussed marketing investment and whether or not it should continue to invest, wait or "go dark." He adds that Van Houtte decided it would continue to push the media investment "as long as we have something smart to tell our customers."
"We know that people are depending on our coffee to get them through the long days at home, and our team worked hard to ensure we are there for them," Van Houtte says in an email, adding that this current ad campaign is a great example of that. "We see on social media that people are now open [to] uplifting, happier content to find joy despite the seriousness of the pandemic."
A new 15-second spot – created by agency Lg2 – shows several fun coffee breaks, with individuals jumping up and down in their kitchen, riding bikes in their house or on tables and jumping on a bouncy ball.
Renauld says Van Houtte wanted to be more relevant to what its consumers were living through, using a more positive tone compared to other COVID-19-related campaigns that emphasize "getting through this" and the adversity of this period. Van Houtte's core consumers love to "explore and experiment," and consider their coffee brand an extension of their lifestyle.
"That's why we said, 'we understand your new lifestyle right now, we're going to give you the message that goes with it,'" he says."We thought that that end-goal was much more positive and much more on brand."
An April Field Agent study of 718 regular coffee drinkers notes that before physical distancing protocols were implemented in early April, 91% of coffee drinkers were purchasing coffee outside of the home. That number declined to 46% in a week in late April.
The campaign is airing on conventional and specialty channels, nationally, as well as online on YouTube. A social media component, called "Stay Home Truths," shows how people are spending their days at home on the brand's Facebook and Instagram accounts.

In the 1990s, an army of European beetles was intentionally unleashed at more than 200 sites across Ontario in an effort to stem the spread of purple loose-strife, the "zebra mussel of the wetlands." Since then, however, there has been little scientific monitoring of the effect of the biological control program on the pretty but invasive Eurasian plant, says Jennifer Hiscott, a student in environmental biology at Nipissing University in North Bay, Ont.
With the support of a research grant from The Royal Canadian Geographical Society, Hiscott has studied the impact of the introduction of the Galerucella beetle, which feeds exclusively on purple loosestrife. Last summer, she surveyed wetlands near Hamilton, North Bay and Peterborough, where the minuscule leaf-eating insects were released in 1993, 1995 and 1997, and discovered that they have had a significant impact on the loosestrife's ability to produce flowers and seeds. A single plant can yield more than two million air- or waterborne seeds, which explains how loose-strife can spread like a brush fire.
Hiscott's field studies showed ample evidence of the beetles' characteristic paper-punch holes in loosestrife leaves. But she was surprised to find that at the site of the most recent beetle release, in Peterborough, there were no flowers and there was a greater amount of grazing. Hiscott had expected the Hamilton location, where the beetles were introduced four years earlier, would have shown more signs of insect damage. "I'm not sure whether the loosestrife [near Hamilton] is starting to defend itself against the beetles," says Hiscott. She is studying the results of chemical analyses of leaves to find out whether the loosestrife near Hamilton is producing more phenols, the plant's natural defence mechanism against leaf-eating insects.
In the meantime, Hiscott hopes her research will "add to the scientific evidence around this important ecological issue." Some scientists are even questioning whether purple loosestrife is as invasive as once thought. "There haven't been a lot of studies to see whether purple loosestrife is actually displacing native plants from wetlands," she says.

Real perpetrator identified in Dallas case
Entre Nax Karage was exonerated through DNA testing in 2005 after serving more than six years in a Texas prison for a murder he didn't commit. It was previously believed that the real perpetrator in the crime had died, but prosecutors said Wednesday that was a mistake. Another man has been charged in the crime after DNA from the crime scene matched his profile. Karage, now 38, was convicted in 1997 of killing his then-girlfriend in 1994 and sentenced to life in prison.
Keith Jordan, who is now charged in the case, is currently in a Texas prison after his convictions in 1997 for aggravated sexual assault of a child and aggravated kidnapping.
. (Dallas Morning News, 01/31/2008)
Karage is one of 16 men in Dallas County to be cleared of wrongful convictions by DNA evidence. Yesterday, prosecutors announced that the DNA testing that recently proved the innocence of Steven Phillips has identified the real perpetrator in the case, a man who died ten years ago. Phillips was released on parole in December after he was wrongfully convicted in 1984 of a series of rapes he didn't commit.

Hi I have this one year old Wyandotte hen and she gets handled a lot because we take her to shows and she's super sweet... well normally. We used to have a seabright hen with her and those were our only two chickens until Wednesday when the Seabright hen died. All of the sudden our Wyandotte got aggressive and started biting us and almost drawing blood. Does anybody know if this is related to her friend dying? What can I do to help stop this behavior and get our sweet girl back to normal?
I'm sure you will get more answers there rather than here in an article. Thank you.

The company has been providing web services since its registration in Belgium on 1. June 2003. On 9. February 2017 the legal form of VACILANDO was upgraded from a sole proprietorship to a BVBA, which in Belgium and the Netherlands corresponds to "Ltd" in the UK, "GmbH" in Germany, or "LLC" in the USA.
The founder and director of VACILANDO is Tomas Fülöpp.


These changes aren't visible to the naked eye, but after one good look under a properly filtered telescope, you'll see it: The mini-magnetic explosions that occur continually on the star's surface, known as sunspots, are diminishing. That's because the sun is on the brink of a period known as a solar minimum, according to NASA, something that occurs every 11 years.
"During [a] solar minimum," Dean Pesnell of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center explained to Phys.org on Wednesday, "we can see the development of long-lived coronal holes." These are the large areas across the sun's atmosphere that release solar particles from the star. During the total solar eclipse on August 21, viewers will have the rare chance of viewing the coronal holes in action, with the proper telescope, of course.
"We see these holes throughout the solar cycle, but during solar minimum, they can last for a long time—six months or more."
A solar minimum won't necessarily significantly affect the way people experience the sun here on Earth. But it does create changes in space weather that can result in disturbances to the Earth's magnetosphere, which in turn can lead to disruptions in communication and navigation systems like satellites and other devices floating around in space.
During a solar maximum, when sunspots are at their highest levels of activity, ultraviolet radiation from the star causes satellites traveling in low Earth orbit to experience friction. The friction creates a drag, which causes satellites to lose their speed over a period of time and fall back down to Earth. The drag also helps keep space junk including natural and man-made particles away from the Earth's atmosphere.
But when the sun is in solar minimum, space weather has the potential to limit the amount of drag, which leads to a higher chance of space junk remaining in the Earth's atmosphere. The cycle can create heightened and more dangerous circumstances for astronauts traveling in space during this time period, Pesnell said.
There are missions in the works—like NASA's plans to send astronauts to Mars post-2020—but by the time the next major space exploration occurs, the sun will be headed toward the start of a new solar maximum.
