In addition to the too-good-to-be-true economics created by the upsurge in software released under increasingly liberal licenses, open development practices and "loosely coupled" projects are demonstrating the power inherent in large and diverse communities. Mike will convince you, through examples, analogies and speaking really, really quickly that the ability to capture even "trivial" contributions from all directions will be more important to the success of modern open source projects than version control, usability guidelines, review processes, licensing, marketing or a really awesome T-shirt design. You will be tested on this material.
This was a very good keynote, a great way to start off the conference. Shaver started by emphasizing the importance of project management in any software development endeavor, namechecking Fred Brooks' classic The Mythical Man Month, especially the human skills needed by software developers and their managers. He then went on to discuss the overall theme of his keynote, that small is beautiful. Small in the sense that FOSS projects can survive and thrive on a lot of little contributions from a lot of different people and that small can be a good way to get started. In fact, Shaver says that we should beware people that jump into a project with grand, world-changing ideas as they care often undoable in FOSS projects. Starting small means people with only limited interest or limited skill levels can jump in and make a contribution right away. The danger of small can be that you risk loss of knowledge and continuity when the one advocate/developer of an idea or feature drifts away.
About small, to make it work you have to make it easy for interested people to go from consumers of a product to producers of that same product, find ways to draw people in. Similarly, you also need to make it easy for people to get out too, so that they don't risk burning out. People should be able to make their contribution and withdraw, if that's what they want. Small also needs a culture of testing, to make sure that "small" contributions don't cause the whole system to fail. You also need to make your needs clear on a project, possibly via a public wish list, so people know immediately if they're interested in contributing. Related to this is managing expectations, almost an anti-wishlist so people know what you don't want ie. out-of-scope, clearly for a later version.
Finally, Shaver made a plea for everyone to contribute to FOSS projects, that everyone has some X-Factor, something that they're really good at, that they can contribute. The kinds of competencies he mentioned include: writing skills, math, single-mindedness & focus, artistic ability, reading, listening (ie. tech support, bug finding).
Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for the nice summary!


Callista Gingrich is the United States' new ambassador-designate to Rome, according to a statement from the US Embassy to the Holy See. The Senate confirmed her election with a vote of 70-23.
News sources say Gingrich is a practising Catholic. She is the third wife of former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich who is one of President Trump's most vocal Catholic allies.
News sources also say Gingrich was instrumental in her husband's conversion to the faith in 2009.
The two were married in 2000. Two years later Newt Gingrich petitioned the Archdiocese of Atlanta to annul his previous marriage on the grounds that his former wife, Marianne, had herself been previously married.
Gingrich will have her work cut out representing President Donald Trump's views at the Vatican while respecting those of Francis.
Key differences between Trump's views and those of Francis include the way they respond to refugees and migrants and over care for the environment.
The Senate questioned Gingrich about these differences when they interviewed her for the ambassadorial role in July.
She has also produced several historical documentary films.
Previously, Gingrich served as a congressional aide in the US House of Representatives and as the President of The Gingrich Foundation which supports charitable causes.

Detailed Timeline of Hawick Lau and Angel Wang's Alleged Cheating Scandal
By addy November 19, 2016
The past week in Chinese entertainment was tested with several cheating scandals, in which one was already proven to be true. The second scandal, centering on Hong Kong actor Hawick Lau (劉愷威), is still looking quite dubious.
Last week, a Chinese tabloid reported that Hawick and his costar, Angel Wang (王鷗), had spent a copious amount of time together on the set of their television drama, The Legend of Jade Sword <莽荒紀>. The pair were shooting the show in Karamay, Xinjiang. A video, showing Hawick entering Angel's hotel room, was shared by the tabloid.
After the news broke, Hawick and Angel respectively released statements to denounce the rumor. Hawick expressed his shock, claiming that he went to Angel's room to only "go over [their] script" together, but added that he has learned his lesson about working with his costars at night. He then threatened to pursue legal action. His wife, actress Yang Mi (楊冪), responded to the rumor by saying that she "completely believes" in Hawick.
Angel's manager released a long statement apologizing to friends and Angel for failing to protect her. The manager then explained that, due to Karamay's weather, most of the actors and scriptwriters had to get together in the hotel after filming to discuss the following day's work.
"The rumor is a tub of dirty water," the manager added.
In response to Hawick and Angel's statements, the original tabloid that exclusively revealed the scandal released a long list of observations, detailing Hawick and Angel's moves during their days together in Karamay between October 12 and October 19. The tabloid, known as Fun Studio, added that their observations can be proven by video recording.

@dramadrama
Doesn't sound like there's more relevant info. Just more detail of b4 the 2 days that they claim he cheated.
The details just tell me that the crew generally meet in her room. N only the 2 days that they might b alone which could b false.
They really need to release better info.
@1nit Think they are trying to tell that there is no reason/purpose of script reading alone for both of them. But whatever. Since Yang Mi believes her hubby, hope they can be happy
happybi November 20, 2016
Actually with them detailing the meetup makes it kinda normal that he was in her room alone. Seem like that was where people always meetup.
bubbletea November 21, 2016
Even if Hawick really went to the room to read the drama's script, and nothing happened, he foolishly set himself up for these accusations. He knows he is a married man and he knows how hound doggish the HK media can be. Why stupidly set himself up for such gossip?. I read somewhere in a Chinese article that the lights could not be seen on in the room. Since when can you read a script without lights??? Can someone answer that question for me?. All I know is that his story needs a few grains of salt to swallow.

Q: Rails 3 ActiveRecordStore session_id tampering I am co-developing a simple web app in Rails 3.0.9 and I have realized that there is a possible session_id tampering possible via malicious request. Mind the fact, that this is my first RoR application, so I could be totally wrong in my conceptions.
Current application functionality requires sessions so I turned to ActiveRecordStore session storage, installed it and started testing in primitive workflows. I noticed that Rails framework creates cookie with the name _session_id and value of some random hash-like string (in DB SESSION table this string corresponds to session_id column).
If that value in the cookie is changed, for example with Firebug, current session id changes to one provided with cookie's data (inspected with request.session_options[:id]), and the change is propagated to the database table, creating new session record with aforementioned parameters.
While this brings no implications on a variables of the session, the session id have deviated from its usual hash-like appearance to a user tampered one.
Here is the question - how this behavior can be detected or preferably prevented?

A: To answer your question, it is important to understand the mechanics of how the session-id is generated. (from the docs)

A session id consists of the hash value of a random string. The random string is the current time, a random number between 0 and 1, the process id number of the Ruby interpreter (also basically a random number) and a constant string. Currently it is not feasible to brute-force Rails' session ids. To date MD5 is uncompromised, but there have been collisions, so it is theoretically possible to create another input text with the same hash value. But this has had no security impact to date.

So the session ID is engineered to be cryptographically "hard" to guess. An attacker could change the session_id but the idea is that they could never guess a valid session.

How can this be prevented?

Based on the above logic, if you lower your session expiration times, there will be considerably fewer "live" session_id's. Thus making it even harder for an attacker to randomly select a usable id.

How can this behavior be detected?

The easiest way is to log all requests with invalid (not expired) session id's. If you see a considerable influx of such requests, someone is probably attempting to acquire a session that is not their own.

When I grew up our preferred pet was a dog. Back then, a dog, was a dog, was a dog. They roamed freely in and out of open doors, chased us, and ran beside us as we rode our bikes down the street or roller skated on sidewalks. To that point (and freedom being the key here) our dogs had a bad habit of also chasing cars, biting at the big rubber tires that rolled 2000 pounds of steel down our street. By some magic, our dogs never got run over but came mighty close to it.
When I am writing, connecting to "the flow," I feel like I am creating a masterpiece. Words come to me with lightning speed, and my fingers move furiously across the keyboard as if I'm Chopin composing his "Revolutionary Etude." When it's done, I sit back and review the brilliance I've created, savoring every word. Every sentence is like butter. The pieces come together perfectly like the ingredients in the best fudge I've ever tasted. It is my best work ever—every time. A true masterpiece.

BEIJING (Reuters) - The hardline Chinese official removed last week as Communist Party chief of restive Tibet has been made head of the province in the centre of contention over China's Catholics, giving him an influential role in another sensitive religious issue.
Zhang Qingli, who gained a reputation as an unyielding Communist Party secretary of heavily Buddhist Tibet, has been appointed party secretary of Hebei, the province surrounding Beijing, the Xinhua news agency reported late on Sunday.
Hebei, with a population of 70 million, is home to roughly a quarter of China's 8-12 million Roman Catholics.
Zhang, 60, was known for his tough stance against Tibet's exiled Buddhist leader the Dalai Lama, a man reviled by China as a separatist. The Nobel Peace Prize-winning monk denies advocating either violence or Tibetan independence.
Zhang was in charge of Tibet in 2008 when protests in the regional capital Lhasa gave way to deadly riots that rippled across other ethnic Tibetan areas. After the protests, he rained insults on the Dalai Lama, calling him a "jackal in Buddhist monk's robes."
Zhang's new post will give him an influential role in China's relationship with the Vatican, which is in dispute with Beijing over control of church affairs, especially appointing bishops.
China's Catholics are divided between a state-sanctioned church that has appointed bishops without the Vatican's approval and an "underground" wing wary of government ties. The underground church has deep roots in Hebei.
Late last year, 100 Catholic seminarians in Hebei demonstrated at the provincial government's religious affairs office, opposing the appointment of a government official to a senior post in their seminary, AsiaNews, a Catholic news service, reported at the time.
Pope Benedict has encouraged the two sides of the divided Chinese church to reconcile, and engaged in a low-key dialogue with Beijing. But Chinese authorities have appointed a succession of bishops without the Vatican's approval.
Last month, the Vatican denounced the ordination of a Chinese bishop without papal approval and excommunicated the bishop. Pope Benedict has said he "deplores" the way Chinese authorities have treated Chinese Catholics who want to remain faithful to Rome.

Pathology and Pathogenesis: The genetics of rosette formation in Plasmodium falciparum has been investigated in a paper starting on page 371 in which the authors were able to select and maintain in vitro rosette-positive and -negative clones, providing a methodology to study the molecular basis of this important phenomenon. The continued importance of animal models in the study of pathogenesis of human disease is demonstrated in a paper starting on page 382 in which Canadian colleagues have shown a clear relationship between disaccharidase activity and resistance to infection by Giardia muris in selected mouse strains. The third paper in this section (see page 391) provides insights into an animal model for the study of cerebral malaria. This P. coatneyi/Macaca mulatta system will give investigators an opportunity for controlled studies on this most serious clinical manifestation of human malaria.
Clinical Studies: Taiwanese investigators have studied 125 cases of amebic liver abscess and provide important insights on prognostic factors that can be indicators of severe disease requiring more radical therapeutic intervention (see page 398).

Are you suffering from unknown allergies? My son is having constant skin flare ups, and we just did not know what was causing it. We have gone to the clinic many times, but are not fans of the allergist we were referred to last time (for my oldest daughter-- who informed us we MUST get rid of all of our animals immediately). We just wanted to find our what he was allergic to, so My Allergy Test could not have arrived at a sooner time for us to review.
My Allergy Test is a test you take in the privacy of your own home. It is SUPER simple, and the instructions are VERY clear! The test does not test for EVERY allergy, but it does test for the most common ones!
MamaBreak received a My Allergy Test to review here on MamaBreak. We did not receive any other kind of compensation. As always, our experiences and opinions are our own!
I would use this for myself as I have mystery rashes from an unknown allergy. I'd like to know what could be causing it!
I'll use it for me—I get hives quite often!
I will use this for my husband & my 3 grandchildren whose allergies seem to flare when they're here.
I will use it for my son...he is getting ready to start school..
I'd love to use it for me to figure out what tree pollen and pets I'm allergic to. Thank you!
My wife is allergic to everything so this will be helpful!
Blood tests are notoriously inaccurate in determining allergies. Even if you have it done in a doctor's office. The most effective and thorough method is the skin prick test in an allergists office. My son is clearly allergic to grass and other pollens, as are the rest of our family members, because he gets a runny nose and his eczema flares up after he plays in the backyard. Yet, the blood test at the doctor's office showed no allergies. We will be taking him to an allergist's office for a skin prick test now that he is old enough (3.5 years old). They need to be able to communicate well enough that they can tell you if they are having trouble breathing as a result of one of the allergens that they are being tested with so that the doctor can administer an Epi Shot if needed.
My Mom seems to be allergic to everything and has been on all kinds of medications so this would be wonderful!
Either for myself or my husband.
my husband! i'm very curious if he has food allergies!!
I will use this on myself.
I suppose I'm selfish - myself.

Sera woke up with the first rays of sunshine that entered through the window. She jumped out of bed, briefly appreciating the room's minimalist design. They'd only arrived at the mountain village late last night, so she didn't really have a chance to take a closer look up till now. But naturally, what she was much more curious about laid outside of these walls. She rushed straight to the doors to the terrace to take in the scenery in the light of day.
A light breeze dancing through the tree branches greeted her as she stepped outside. Sera could hear birds chirping around her, and the sound of a waterfall in the distance. She closed her eyes, a wide smile spreading across her face.
They hadn't yet decided how long they would spend here, but she could envision staying here for a good while. It was the kind of place where time could stop if you wanted it to.
Sera allowed for exactly that to happen and simply admired the waterfalls. She took in the view while doing a simple morning yoga session. Nothing too crazy, that one time she'd attempted a handstand was quite enough for her. She'd leave the truly difficult poses to Lorcan for a good while.
Of course, it would be a while till she'd see Lorcan. They may have officially been a couple now, but he still insisted on getting separate rooms in each destination they went. Apparently he didn't want her to see him in the mornings, when he claimed to be at his worst; not before he'd completed his little morning routine.
Sera questioned it at first, jokingly telling him that she wasn't normally much of a morning person either, but it didn't seem to be much use, so she let it go. Which meant she had about an hour or two to herself now.
Through the branches, she noticed a small temple in between the trees. It didn't look too far, she figured. She could probably comfortably make it there and back with a bit of time to spare. Besides, if Lorcan had to wait around for her for a while, at least it would give him incentive to change this silly sleeping arrangement, she smirked.
She didn't waste much time getting ready, tying a bow around the kimono-inspired dress she'd bought at a market a few weeks ago, before setting off in the direction of the curved roofs.
As Sera approached the temple, it struck her it was a lot larger than what she'd originally anticipated. So much for making a quick back-and-forth trip, she thought. There was no way she would leave the place without having a closer look.
Her mind felt unusually clear when she made her way across the little bridge. Normally, there would always be at least a bit of a buzz; thinking about Lorcan, her family back at home or trying to plan the next part of their trip.
But right now, all she felt was peace. She gravitated towards the tall tower without even being conscious of her movement. Slipping out of her shoes, she climbed onto the little platform heading to the entrance and opened the door.
Sera wasn't sure what she'd been expecting, but the marvel in front of her took her by surprise. The room was filled with hundreds of candles, plants and incense. She let out an involuntary giggle. Something about this place made her feel so much joy, but she wasn't even sure why.
When the brain doesn't know how to process what it's feeling into forming coherent thoughts, it's best to just let yourself be guided by your senses, she decided.
She slowly sat down on one of the cushions, listening to the rhythm of her breath. A stream of golden glow passed through her. Her energy. Her spirit. Her soul. It was pouring out of her through her skin, but there was no less of it inside her for it. She set herself free, melting into the world around her. The glow was everywhere now, though not all of it came from her. Much of it was the energy from the outside world. Or was it a part of her all along? Was she a part of it?
Her body felt light. Did she even have a body anymore? She felt herself rising up. For a moment, it was as if she could see all. Be a part of every single soul in the world.
All she felt was love. She was love. A feeling of warmth tingled trough her.
Was this what Lorcan experienced when he was meditating? Was she actually floating in the air now, like she'd seen him do so many times before?
The fall was immediate. Sera only just managed to open her eyes before landing on the ground with a loud thud.
She blinked a few times, trying to gauge where she was. Definitely in her body. She rubbed her eyes, feeling the skin against her fingers. Her knees ached from the hit she took when she fell.
So she was levitating, wasn't she?
Perhaps she would become a master of meditation yet, she chuckled to herself as she pulled herself up from the ground. This was definitely an experience she wanted to repeat. Ideally without the fall, of course.
Slowly, she started making her way back to the cottages they were staying in. She wasn't sure how long she'd been at the temple for, but it was definitely longer than she'd intended.
At the same time, she wasn't in a particular rush to get back. There were too many things to process. She thought of the experience she'd just had. And then her mind slipped back to the conversation her and Lorcan had in the mausoleum gardens, back towards the beginning of their travels. When she told him he'd changed her. She wasn't even aware to what extent, until now.
Thanks to Lorcan, she was at peace. She could only hope she'd be able to do the same for him in time. He made her strong. Possibly stronger than he was. So that she could now be strong, for him.
Sera realised she'd fallen in love on this trip. Not with Lorcan – deep down, she knew she'd already loved him for a long time before they both admitted to their feelings. But she'd now discovered a new love in her life; she finally fell in love with herself.
Yaaaaaaay! I did NOT like Sera as a kid, but I am so happy I can like her now. And it was really good to have a chapter 100% dedicated to her, and not include Lorcan in it (as much as we love him! 🙂 ). Sera has found herself. It's so nice to see the grounded adult she has become.
Yeah, I remember you used to hate her haha. Glad she grew on you as she grew as a person. And yes, she did actually spend the rest of the day with Lorcan and I was going to include some of that in the chapter, but it didn't feel necessary in the end.
Go Sera! She's so dope these days.
Oh no… I've caught up… I've been reading this thing for 3 days now and used up all the mobile data reading it in different doctor's waiting rooms.
Your screenshots become more beautiful with every chapter, and the lots you chose to display the world travels are absolutely awesome, I might need to check them out myself.
She's glowing. I hope nothing comes between her and happiness now.
Carly and Ralphs new babies will age up to toddlers if you saw the new patch!
You have great character development in your legacy also!
Oh I know! sera definitely deserves it, she worked on herself a lot.
And thank you! I love showing characters change and evolve!
I love this chapter. I'm very glad that Sera finally is at peace with herself, and that she can finally say she can love herself.
Plus OMG that lot is AMAZING.

Watch & Listen: That's Leading?!
When the unexpected happens and you don't know what to do, what is your first impulse?
For some of you, it is to move; to just do something. For some others, it is to freeze; to do nothing.
Recently, I was at youth group event, which included my son, where I am a volunteer leader when I received the phone call that my father-in-law had died. It wasn't as if I didn't know my father-in-law was going to die eventually, knowing he had been battling many serious health complications for more than a year. But the call from my wife still shocked me. I didn't know what to say to my wife on the phone. I found myself searching for the right words to say, but didn't know what they were, so I just froze. I ended the conversation with my wife, not remembering what I said to her. Now I had to tell my son his grandfather was gone.
I knew how much my father-in-law meant to my son. Questions raced through my head: What do I say? What if I say it wrong? Will he be scarred for life? Will he hate me for it? Will I lose this majorly important follower in my life like I just lost my father-in-law? In that moment, I just acted. I pulled him aside and told him. He reacted by crying out, "No!" I will never forget that. In that half second, true love was vividly on his mind; he knew that he would no longer be able to talk to or see his grandpa, one of two people that my son thought really understood him. It hurt me deep inside to have to share this news with him.
At the time I am writing this, I am now on day three after finding out about our family's loss, and as I shared in the last blog, I reached out to many trusted friends and family to better understand what to do. I asked them how I could lead well in this situation. The best answer I received from many of them was to just watch and listen. To be honest, when they told me this, I thought, "Really? That's all? Seriously?"
Some of you may think that watching and listening is easy, but I saw this as a tough challenge. Like many leaders, I start to solve problems, hurts, challenges and situations after about the fifth word in the first sentence when people begin to share, when what they really need is someone to listen to them. I have found that my instinct to solve a problem or challenge right away may not always be the best instinct to have. I have discovered this most in my marriage, but also in the workplace and in leading my children. Through challenging experiences like this one, I have come to recognize this area of importance, and it is still a struggle for me—one that I have to battle against everyday.
One key component is that one has to be present in order to watch and listen. This means both in mind and physical presence. This isn't always easy when there is a good football game on or when you have so much to do. In these times, you can either: one, build rapport with those you lead; or two, become a leader that they won't respect, only following you only because of your position.
The next time you or one of your people goes through a challenging time (although this is good to practice every day), make an effort to listen more and speak less. You will be amazed how much you can influence by just being quiet and listening. Be attentive and be close enough to be in the right place at the right time. Do this and you are sure to gain deeper relationships with those that mean the most to you, and in turn, those relationships will grow your influence with those you lead and those that are observing your leadership.
I would love to hear your feedback—whether you agree or disagree, if you have a story to tell of when you failed at doing this or, even better, when you succeeded. Please use the comment section below or shoot me an email. This way, I'm learning from you as well.

First 400 Detroit residents vaccinated Wednesday
'It is so easy to get the shot. It didn't hurt. I didn't have a reaction,'
DETROIT – Wednesday was a big day for residents of Detroit -- a day Detroiters have been waiting nearly 10 months for.
READ: 'This is the first step to getting our lives back' -- Detroit begins vaccinating residents
Meda Chapman, a 77-year-old Detroit resident, was the first of 400 people to receive the COVID-19 vaccine at the TCF Center.
"Once inside, it went really smooth," Chapman said. "I filled out my form and kept moving ahead until it was time for me to get the shot."
Relief could be heard in Chapman's voice as she recalled getting her first coronavirus dose from the city of Detroit.
READ: How Detroit residents can schedule COVID-19 vaccination appointment
Early on, Detroit was a coronavirus hotspot. More than 1,700 people have died from coronavirus in Detroit, a little less than half of the roughly 3,600 that have died in Wayne County. More than 27,000 Detroiters have tested positive for COVID.
Chapman said it's the city's time to move forward.
"I think that the seniors especially should step forward and take the shot," Chapman said. "Is it better to get the shot or to get sick and end up in the hospital or being in quarantine? It is so easy to get the shot. It didn't hurt. I didn't have a reaction."
The shots are administered inside the TCF Center garage by appointment only. City officials said phone lines were overwhelmed, but the jammed phone lines to make an appointment have improved.
400 Detroiters were vaccinated Wednesday. It's just the start, but so much is riding on the drive-thru vaccination system. The city is offering 20,000 COVID-19 appointments through Feb. 5 as the city moves into the next phase.
Robert Frantz is a 56-year-old essential worker -- a special education teacher with Detroit Public Schools Community District. He said he was in-and-out within 25 minutes.
"It went well. Fast an organized," Frantz said. "I would say to come down and get it."
People should call 313-230-0505 to schedule an appointment only if they meet the following qualifications:
A Detroit resident 75 and older
Any "good neighbor" 65 and older who drives a 75 year old (or older) Detroit resident to TCF
The following Group B essential workers: K-12 teachers and support staff and child care workers
Because supply of the vaccine is limited, residents are required to get an appointment. More information on how to set up an appointment can be found here.

Q: How to solve this "parse and balance angle brackets" problem? (Javascript) I am struggling with an algorithm problem I saw (and failed). Now, I am trying to understand how to solve the problem.

Question:
  Given a string of angle brackets, write a function that add brackets at the beginning and end of the string to make all brackets match. The angle brackets match if for every < there is a corresponding > and for every > there is a corresponding <.
The example input string : ><<><
The output string is <><<><>>

My main problem is how to handle multiple < characters in the input string, like <<.  Based on the example given, I will end up with some nested angle brackets, but I am not currently able to figure out how to do this.
I can solve the example input, but when I give it other inputs, the output is not always what I am expecting (input #2 and input #6).  Help would be appreciated.
const process = (strInput) => {

  let strOutput = [];
  let stack = [];
  let popped ='';

  for (let i = 0; i < strInput.length; i++) {

    if (strInput[i] === '>') {
      if (stack[stack.length - 1] === '<') {
        popped = stack.pop();
        strOutput.push(popped);
        strOutput.push(strInput[i]);
      } else {
        strOutput.push('<');
        strOutput.push(strInput[i]);
      }
    } else {
        if (stack[stack.length - 1] === '<') {
            strOutput.push('<');
            stack.push(strInput[i]);
        } else {
            stack.push(strInput[i]);
        }

    }
  }

// After string has been read, check the stack for <

  for (let i = 0; i < stack.length; i++) {
    strOutput.push('>');
  }

  return strOutput.join('');
};

let result = '';

console.log('Input 1: ><<><');

result = process('><<><');

console.log('Output 1: ' + result);
console.log('Expected Output 1: ' + '<><<><>>');

console.log('Input 2: <><<');

result = process('<><<');

console.log('Output 2: ' + result);

console.log('Expected Output 2: ' + '<><<>>');

console.log('Input 3: <><<<>');

result = process('<><<<>');

console.log('Output 3: ' + result);

console.log('Expected Output 3: ' + '<><<<>>>');

console.log('Input 4: <><<<><');

result = process('<><<<><');

console.log('Output 4: ' + result);

console.log('Expected Output 4: ' + '<><<<><>>>');

console.log('Input 5: ><<>');

result = process('><<>');

console.log('Output 5: ' + result);

console.log('Expected Output 5: ' + '<><<>>');

console.log('Input 6: ><<<');

result = process('><<<');

console.log('Output 6: ' + result);

console.log('Expected Output 6: ' + '<><<<>>>');

console.log('Input 7: >>>');

result = process('>>>');

When a > is encountered, if there are no current open tags, add a < to the beginning of the string (while keeping the open tag count at 0). Then, at the end, add a number of >s matching the number of currently open tags:

Authentic DeSean Jackson Jersey , took the snap and zipped a pass to the receiver who played his college ball at Alabama.Nope, it wasn't Julio Jones.He's sitting out the team's voluntary offseason program. So it was Calvin Ridley — a first-round draft pick from the Crimson Tide — who got a chance to shine during a 90-minute practice Wednesday.But, for a team with Super Bowl aspirations, it was impossible to ignore the absence of No. 11.So, where's Julio?The Falcons say it's no big deal, even as they talk constantly about the importance building camaraderie and trust in each other during the voluntary offseason workouts, a big part of coach Dan Quinn's much-ballyhooed "Brotherhood ."Jones said his absence has nothing to do with any hard feelings toward the only team he's played with in the NFL, but he's vague about his reasons for staying away and it seems fairly obvious that he's trying to send a message about his desire for a new contract.While Jones still has three seasons remaining on the last deal he signed — a five-year, $71.3 million extension with $47 million in guaranteed money — his average salary is now less than at least a half-dozen receivers around the league. Most tellingly, recent deals with Tampa Bay's Mike Evans and Cleveland's Jarvis Landry seemed to set a whole new financial bar for the NFL's top pass catchers, a list that certainly includes Jones.In addition, he surely took note when the Falcons made quarterback Matt Ryan the league's NFL's first $100 million man , agreeing to a new deal that assures the quarterback of at least that much in guaranteed money and could average out to as much as $30 million annually over five seasons.Rarely flustered Adam Humphries Jersey , Ryan got a bit testy when asked about missing out on a chance to work with his favorite receiver during OTAs."We'll have our chances to work together," the QB said. "I'm not going to go into it more than that. It's not really anybody else's business."Jones has gone silent on social media and hasn't spoken in months to the Atlanta media, but he did provide some reassuring words to Falcons fans when the gossip site TMZ caught up with him last weekend as he was leaving a swanky restaurant in West Hollywood ."Everyone wants a story right now. There's no story to be told," Jones insisted. "I'm just working on getting myself better. I'm just working on myself right now. That's all that is. There's no bad blood between me and the team or anything like that."Jones insisted that he plans to remain with the Falcons for the rest of his career, echoing a sentiment expressed by owner Arthur Blank."Everybody on the outside (is) trying to look in and trying to destroy what we built there," Jones said. "I'm not going nowhere. I'll be there. I love the team. I love the organization. I love everybody there. I'm good."Still, Jones' decision to skip OTAs has been a major topic of conversation around Atlanta, with fans and sports talk radio weighing in almost daily on his future with a team that reached the Super Bowl during the 2016 season and the second round of the playoffs last season.Everyone can rest easy, Quinn insisted.Jones has assured his coach that he'll be at the team's mandatory minicamp, which is scheduled for June 12-14."The guys who are really close to him, obviously they keep up," Quinn said outside the locker room after practice. "It's not like they don't hang out and talk on the phone and do stuff together. They may not be spending the amount of time here, in the building Demar Dotson Jersey , that they normally do. But that doesn't mean they don't spend time away from here. So, no issues on our end."I know he's working really hard. I've had contact with him, obviously. We can't wait to get him back, here, with the guys. But he's really putting good work in. I think we'll see the results of that work, hopefully soon."The 29-year-old Jones is a huge weapon in the Falcons' offense , using his rare combination of speed, size and power to shake off constant double-teams. Last season, he had 88 catches for 1,444 yards — his fourth straight season with at least 80 receptions and 1,400 receiving yards. In 2015, he had one of the greatest seasons ever by an NFL receiver — 136 catches (tied for the second most in league history behind Marvin Harrison's 143) and 1,871 yards (surpassed only by Calvin Johnson's record of 1 Chris Conte Jersey ,954) .Ryan certainly recognizes the bond he has with his favorite receiver.They've been together since 2011. They won't be any trouble getting back in sync, Ryan said confidently.As soon as Jones shows up, that is."No concern," Ryan said. "He's always been extremely well prepared coming into seasons, going into games. Talk about being on the same page: we've played together for a long time. When he's healthy and he feels good , like he does right now ... it's very easy to get on the same page. He's so talented. So, we're fine."Follow Paul Newberry on Twitter at pnewberry1963 . His work can be found at s://apnews/search/paul%20newberryTraining camp kicking is the equivalent to fart noise To say the Bucs have had field goal kicking issues over the past nine seasons would be a massive understatement. In fact, since cutting Matt Bryant after the 2008 season, the Bucs have had Shane Andrus, Mike Nugent, Kyle Brindza, Connor Barth, Rian Lindell Ryan Smith Jersey , Patrick Murray, Roberto Aguayo (the pain is still too fresh) and Nick Folk handling kicking duties. Going through eight kickers in nine seasons has been the cause of great anxiety amongst Bucs fans. Enter Chandler Catanzaro to save the day. The Bucs signed the former New York Jet and gave him a three-year contract worth $9.75-million, with $3.2-million guaranteed. The guaranteed part is crucial as it basically solidifies Catanzaro as the starter for the 2018 season. Why is that important? Because for all intents and purposes, it makes what happens in training camp kind of pointless. A reference:Don't get me wrong, practice is important, but it doesn't really matter until the games start. Nick Folk out-kicked Roberto Aguayo in training camp, went 6-for-7 (85%) in the preseason, and then proceeded to go a disastrous 6-for-11 (54%) in four games to start the season. Real game pressure matters in evaluating kickers. The B ucs will be relying on Catanzaro to continue kicking at his career average of 84% in order to feel confident in him heading into the 2019 season. I do have a note of concern regarding Catanzaro. His field goal percentage from 40-49 yards has decreased every year he's been in the league. Since his rookie season he's 13-for-13 from 40-49 yards inside a dome, but he's only 21-for-30 (70%) from 40-49 yards in open air stadiums. The Bucs only play three games in domed stadiums this year. Gulp!Why did they cut Matt Bryant again?

The long, slow death of Venice
September 24, 2018 thejakartapost Leave a Comment
If you've been to Venice, you get it. Even the most jaded globetrotter can't help but do a double-take at the sheer originality—and beauty—of the centuries-old city built entirely on water. Yet even the quickest visit reveals that Venice is no longer a living city, with scores more tourists than actual Venetians crowding its lagoon, bridges and walkways. The numbers bear that out. The city's population basically peaked in the 1500s, and though it rallied again to near 16th century levels in the 1970s, today there are just one third as many Venetians as 50 years ago. Once the Mediterranean's paramount city state, Venice today seems powerless to arrest the trend of ever more tourists and ever fewer residents. When a mammoth cruise ship rammed into a boat packed with tourists earlier this month leaving four injured, civic associations and the dwindling number of Venetians were quick to remind what they have been saying for years: the lagoon is too small … [Read more...] about The long, slow death of Venice

New from Katy Perry
June 9, 2019 philstar Leave a Comment
Motherly was how Katy Perry came across as one of the judges in the reality talent show American Idol (AI). Her glamorous facade often took a backseat to emotions that alternated between joy when the contestants make the grade and sadness for those who were sent home. The 34-year-old pop star was so invested in the lives of the kids that viewers could not help but find her most endearing. I was one of those and I do hope that she will be back as a judge in the next season. Being in AI though did not mean that Katy forsook her usual pop star activities. There is no news regarding the release of a new album yet. Her last one was Witness, her fourth No. 1 seller in 2017. She remains very active with regards to recording though and the year has already seen the release of three very special songs. As usual with Katy, the songs differed a lot from one another and each one came with delightful, eye-popping videos. Katy's first for the year was 365, which is a collaboration with the big … [Read more...] about New from Katy Perry

Prince Harry and Meghan name 'dream' son Archie
May 8, 2019 thejakartapost Leave a Comment
Britain's Prince Harry and wife Meghan on Wednesday announced their new "dream" son's name is Archie, hours after showing him off to the world for the first time. "The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are pleased to announce they have named their first born child: Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor," the couple announced on their Instagram account, ending months of speculation. The informal choice defied the bookmakers' predictions and confirmed the couple's determination not to be bound by tradition. Archie's proud parents emerged in front of the cameras inside Windsor Castle earlier Wednesday to show off their son, ahead of introducing him to great-grandmother Queen Elizabeth II. "He's just been a dream," said a smiling Meghan, 37, in her first public comments since giving birth to the seven-pound, three-ounce (3.26-kilogram) baby, who stayed firmly asleep during his public unveiling. "He has the sweetest temperament. He's really calm," added the Duchess of Sussex, as Prince Harry … [Read more...] about Prince Harry and Meghan name 'dream' son Archie

Newtown, still struggling, wants to move forward. But many Americans want to show their sympathy on the anniversary of the shooting.
The anniversary of the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre arrived Saturday with the nation torn over how to commemorate the day —- if at all.
Newtown itself, exhausted and traumatized, has asked for peace and quiet: no media, no inrush of sympathetic gestures or remembrances. Local officials and families of victims say they'd rather people do something kind or volunteer for a charitable cause in their own home towns as a way of recognizing the one-year mark.
Many of them have arranged to be out of town for the weekend, while others will quietly light memorial candles in honor of their lost loved ones.
Neil Heslin, father of 6-year-old Jesse Lewis, said he planned to travel to New York on the anniversary to take part in a project honoring the victims, but also to avoid any spectacle that may encroach on the town. "I need to get out of Dodge," he said.
The proudly modest community, sprawled across the wooded hills of southwestern Connecticut, wants to move forward, so that the shooting doesn't define it.
"Newtown's ask of the world for the anniversary is to stay where you are and do acts of kindness and honor those we've lost," said David Ackert, chairman of the Newtown Foundation and Newtown Action Alliance, which organized a vigil for gun violence victims in Washington D.C. on Thursday, in part to draw attention away from the town.
Sandy Hook Elementary School has been demolished, and the town has begun design of a new school that would leave no reminder of the shooting. Many of the families have turned their grief into political action, lobbying for stricter gun laws and better mental health care — an endeavor that has yet to reap much success. Many have also formed organizations that promote causes that their loved ones identified with.
UpdatedNewtown Families in Club "No One Wants to Be a Part Of"
At the same time, many Americans, and their elected leaders, feel a need to express their condolences, in a way that respects Newtown's wishes.
At 9:30 a.m., around the time the first of Adam Lanza's 26 schoolhouse victims died, houses of worship around Connecticut tolled their bells, once for each victim, a request from Gov. Dannel Malloy — repeating a similar gesture made a week after the shooting. President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama observed a moment of silence Saturday morning and lit 26 candles set up on a table in the White House Map Room.
Across the country, people will find their own ways to pay tribute — the personal and the communal, the modest and the grand.
Many of such efforts have been underway for quite a while. There is, for example, The Sandy Ground Project: Where Angels Play, which built 26 playgrounds in areas leveled by Hurricane Sandy, each named after one of the Sandy Hook victims. There is the Newtown Documentation Project, which sought to preserve the thousands of letter and handmade gifts that have poured into the town in the past year.
But the most profound undertakings may be those in which people use the anniversary to rededicate themselves to helping others.
That is what Carlos Soto, the 16-year-old younger brother of slain Sandy Hook Elementary teacher Victoria Soto, is planning.
That, he said, is the best way he can think to honor the events of Dec. 14, 2012.

Jumeirah to make Malaysian debut with KLCC property
By Mark Elliott	 On Aug 12, 2015
The hotel and residences will be located in the KLCC area of the city
Jumeirah Group has signed new agreements that will lead to the company's debut in Malaysia.
The Dubai-based hotel group has penned management contracts with Oxley Malaysia for a new 190-room luxury Jumeirah hotel and 273 branded services residences in the centre of Kuala Lumpur.
Jumeirah Kuala Lumpur hotel and Jumeirah Living Kuala Lumpur residences will be set in one of the three towers, connected by a shopping mall, in the KLCC area of the city, close to the Petronas Twin Towers.
Construction is expected to start in 2016 and be completed in 2021.
"Our agreement with Oxley Malaysia paves the way for Jumeirah's entry into the important Malaysian market," said Gerald Lawless, president & CEO of Jumeirah. "This highly prestigious development further reinforces the reputation of the Jumeirah brand and will greatly appeal to our loyal customers who stay with Jumeirah in our properties across Europe, the Middle East and Asia.
"We are proud to have been chosen as a partner and look forward to the launch of a new expression of outstanding luxury in the Malaysian capital."
Jumeirah Living Kuala Lumpur residences will be located on the lower floors of the tower, while the Jumeirah Kuala Lumpur hotel will occupy the upper floors. The hotel will feature 190 rooms and suites, two restaurants, a lounge and a bar, plus a club lounge, spa, fitness centre and swimming pool.
Jumeirah Group currently operates 23 hotels in Europe, the Middle East and Asia, and has a further 25 properties in the pipeline under its Jumeirah and Venu brands.
Currently its only property in East Asia is the Jumeirah Himalayas Hotel in Shanghai, but the company has 11 other projects in pipeline in the region, in India, Indonesia and China. And Jumeirah revealed that is in negotiations for further properties in Thailand, Cambodia and Singapore.

Janelle Monáe's New Music Is Actually From Prince
Story from Music
Janelle Monáe's New Music Is Actually From Her Mentor Prince's Archive
Sarah Midkiff
Photo: Jon Kopaloff/FilmMagic/Getty Images.
Janelle Monáe released two songs from her forthcoming album Dirty Computer and we already cannot wait for its April 27 release. Each song, "Django Jane" and "Make Me Feel," was released alongside opulent, visually stunning music videos. The latter, a mesmerizing return to '80s dance music, sounds like it could have been written by Prince. Turns out, it was in part.
Straight from Prince's archive, "Make Me Feel" and it's incisive synth beat are a perfect fit for Monáe's stylistic sensibilities. Who else could pull it off the way she does? It is as if this song was meant for her all along. DJ Lenka Paris shared on her Facebook that she first heard the song at a small party hosted by Prince before he passed. The accenting electric guitar is so indicative of the music legend. "He gave that to her," she wrote recalling his creative genius. The album will be her third solo effort and is set to be accompanied by a "narrative film project," according to NME. If it is anything like the first two singles, Monáe is making a strong case to be the soundtrack of 2018.

In an interview on Beats 1 with Zane Lowe, Monáe said that she "always knew" that she "had to make this album." In fact, the concept and title for Dirty Computer predates her first album and represents her most vulnerable work as a musician. A self-proclaimed "self-editor," the singer revealed that she is choosing honesty over mystery with this album. "I know that there are a lot of things that I haven't discussed and I think this is the album that you'll get an opportunity to get a closer glimpse into my mind and into my heart," said Monáe in the interview. It has been five years since her last album, The Electric Lady, was released.
When pop icon Prince passed away in April 2016, he left are "thousands upon thousands" of tapes in vaults at his home in Minnesota known as Paisley Park, reports Rolling Stone. In an interview with BBC Radio 1's Annie Mac, Monáe revealed that Prince worked with her on Dirty Computer. The two had a close relationship. In an interview with The Guardian, Monáe said, "I wouldn't be as comfortable with who I am if it had not been for Prince."
A teaser trailer for Dirty Computer was released last week on Monáe's YouTube channel. The "emotion picture" as she calls it, seems fast-paced, futuristic, and surreal in a similar vein as Black Mirror's San Junipero. While the album's release date is set for the end of April, the film release date has yet to be confirmed. During her BBC Radio 1 interview, she made it clear that each of the singles are part of the larger narrative of the album, alluding to it being more of a concept album explaining, "Once you hear it in the context of the album, I think you'll get a greater understanding...for now, jam."

The Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) signed an agreement on 27 May with the Jordanian government for a ¥24bn ($190mn) loan to support 'Amman's fiscal and public service development policy. This aims to reform Jordan's debt management and public services. JICA says the government has been spending a large proportion of its budget on the supply of electricity and water, for which demand has been boosted by an influx of 630,000 Syrian refugees, almost equal to 10% of Jordan's population.
