Count Dean Miller -- a self-described "red-blooded American capitalist" -- among those who think newspapers will be around and making money for a long time. Miller was until recently the editor of the Idaho Falls Post-Register, a job he had held for about 14 years until he locked horns one too many times with the head of his company. (Disclosure: I met Miller at a professional conference at the Poynter Institute in St. Petersburg and have kept in friendly contact since.)
I spoke with Miller because of a fact that often gets overlooked: While most of the ink, blood and tears spilled over newspapers involves big-city dailies, smaller papers have tended to fare better. He says many of the most influential regional papers in the country have forgotten to focus carefully enough on their local readers and advertisers and are weighed down by major debt.
But he offers lessons for the bigger names in the newspaper industry, culled in no small part from his experiences in eastern Idaho.
First: Take a deep breath and take print advertising seriously. While classified advertising has nearly evaporated in the age of Craigslist, Miller argues that much of the steep declines in advertising has occurred because of the larger economy.
"Advertising on radio, TV and online is considered an annoyance," he says. "But there's a significant number of people who buy newspapers to read the ads. That's unique about newspapers. So I think a lot of people are going to get kind of spanked by their predictions of the utter demise of newspapers because they've misread some of the economic impact as fundamental business model impact."
Second: Focus on local news and content, both in reporting and market research. Save the poetry for a yarn that's worth it. Study your market. Invest in software programs allow papers to, say, format incredibly detailed statistics from high school sporting events with minimal human interaction. Make the staff cuts you have to, Miller says, but don't pull punches on major institutions in your reporting. In one memorable episode, the Post-Register kicked up a firestorm when it disclosed child abuse by figures prominent in the local Boy Scout hierarchy.
"The number one reason for repeat readership is, 'This newspaper looks after my personal and civic interests,' " Miller says. "Meanwhile, everyone is wringing their hands about how the citizenry are idiots and don't care about journalism. No, they really want journalism. But they want it to be about them. So what's happened to the big papers is they've gotten into the contest to be the big Pulitzer generator and they've not done as good a job on local news as local papers have."
Third: Charge for news wherever it's consumed, in print or online. "There is no sustainable business that gives away its most expensive product," Miller says. At the Post-Register, "we've been a paid site forever. We've been sneered at, laughed at, yelled at." But he says the paper has made money both online and in print, in part by giving readers many alternatives of how often to receive the printed product at home each week.
We'll be following up on Miller's final plank with an interview with Steven Brill, one of the forces behind a high-powered new venture called Journalism Online LLC. The group seeks to create a news portal that would gather up news articles and content that have previously been provided online for free -- and then convince readers to pay for it.

Postponing elections would be a constitutional 'assault', Moseneke inquiry hears
Hlaudi Motsoeneng tells Moseneke not to listen to him, Ramaphosa or Malema when making findings in his report

A postponement of October's local government elections would be an assault on the constitution of the country — and was a move that ActionSA would actively oppose.
This was the view of Michael Beaumont, the party's national chairperson, on Wednesday.
He made the submission before the Moseneke inquiry which is looking into the feasibility of holding free and fair elections under Covid-19 conditions later this year.
Health experts addressing the inquiry have poured cold water on the holding of elections, warning of a possible fourth wave of infections amid the slow rollout of vaccinations.
The people of South Africa are desperate to have a political change that allows them to lead dignified lives.
Michael Beaumont, ActionSA chair
Beaumont said his party was not oblivious of the scientific findings but expressed confidence at the country's ability to hold free and fair elections.
"We are confident that with a reduction in infection rates, adequate planning and proper public communication on plans, elections can be held safely.
"As an organisation committed to the constitutional rule of law, we believe that any decision to postpone or delay elections would be an assault on the constitution. ActionSA would actively oppose any such move.
"The people of SA are desperate to have a political change that allows them to lead dignified lives," Beaumont said.
Decision on whether to hold elections this year must 'not be clouded by populist antics nor by false assurances': Cosatu
The decision on whether SA should go ahead with elections in October should be handled with sobriety to avoid plunging the country into a ...
The One SA Movement, led by Mmusi Maimane, expressed similar sentiments, arguing that there were no guarantees that the situation would have improved by a later date.
"We are dealing with one variant at this point. Who knows that in future we are not going to have other variants, another virus or disease? So if we do not learn the lessons now and put the adequate mechanisms in place now, we could always face a global challenge to hold elections and SA will be vulnerable in this regard.
We are dealing with one variant at this point. Who knows that in future we are not going to have other variants, another virus or disease?
Mmusi Maimane, One SA leader
"I submit to you, justice, that elections must go ahead now," Maimane said
Maimane went on to say there was a possibility to maintain the right to life if the Electoral Commission (IEC) planned adequately and implemented new mechanisms under which to hold elections. This is because the pandemic would continue to exist for a long time and SA was nowhere near achieving herd immunity.
African Content Movement (ACM) leader Hlaudi Motsoeneng gave an opposing submission, slamming those pushing for elections to go ahead.
"I don't think the majority of our people want to vote. It's only politicians who are power-hungry. They think that they will take over because the ANC is having problems.
"We all want to take over, but what is important is the lives of our people," he said.
Justice Moseneke hears submissions on whether local government elections can be held during Covid-19 pandemic
Retired deputy chief justice Dikgang Moseneke continues hearing submissions at Centurion in Gauteng on whether free and fair local government ...
Moseneke asked him to comment on what the constitution stipulated in terms of the right to vote. Motsoeneng said the constitution could be amended because the country found itself in a dire position.
"We need to focus on the lives of our people. The constitution is not there to kill people; it is there to protect people. We are in control of the constitution, it is written by us, but we are not in control of the lives of people."
The ACM leader cautioned Moseneke about succumbing to pressure from political organisations.
"In you, I believe that you will lead us in the right direction, but don't listen to political parties. How do you listen to Hlaudi or Ramaphosa or Malema, whoever? We are not specialists, we are human beings. We must be led by medical professionals and people who specialise in the constitution, like yourself," he argued.
Moseneke expressed his gratitude for all the views made before him, describing them as a vibrant contestation of our democratic practice.
The hearings are ongoing.

Growing Up in O.C.: Actress Linda Emond Was Queen for a Day
Pat H. Broeske
Linda Emond
b. 1959, raised in Anaheim
Stage, film, and television actress; known for her Tony-nominated performance in "Death of a Salesman"
I went to Loara Elementary, Ball Junior High, and Loara High schools. And they were all great.
I was in theater and choir. I was in cheerleading and on the drill team. I did speech contests. I was the sports editor of the yearbook in high school and the senior class president. All of this makes it sound like I was so successful! But I remember plenty of things I was not a part of. Not making a cheerleading squad that I very much wanted to be a part of. But somehow I would bounce back and try again at something else.
And, yes, I was homecoming queen. I think that may have happened because I was in so many different groups at school. We were driven around the football field in cars, and I was being silly and waving and thinking that it was all a lark—that I wouldn't actually be the homecoming queen. I was shocked when they called my name. I still have that crown. Can you imagine? But here's an even funnier thing: Since I was senior class president, I actually selected that crown for whoever would win. Our fathers escorted us onto the football field that night. Wasn't that a good idea? So that's my dad looking so sweet, and so swell. Is that a leisure suit he's wearing? It's certainly a snazzy shirt, isn't it?

Anderson-Dropkin win mixed doubles event; Nationals field nearly set
(STEVENS POINT, Wis.) – The American duo of Sarah Anderson (Minneapolis, Minn.) and Korey Dropkin (Duluth, Minn.) continued its strong season in mixed doubles by capturing the Qualico Mixed Doubles Classic yesterday in Banff, Alberta.
Anderson and Dropkin went 8-0 to capture the World Curling Tour event title in a competitive field that featured many 2018 Olympic mixed doubles teams. The U.S. team defeated Canada's Jocelyn Peterman and Brett Gallant, 9-4, in the final to win the title at the Banff Curling Club. The team has advanced to the playoffs and medaled in nearly every competition they have played in this season.
The Men's and Women's Challenge Rounds concluded on Sunday with the final two men's teams to compete in the 2019 National Championships being determined. Rinks skipped by Steve Birklid (Seattle) and Jed Brundidge (West St. Paul, Minn.) secured the last spots at the Four Seasons Curling Club. Earlier in the day the Women's Challenge Round concluded at the Itasca Curling Club in Grand Rapids, Minn., with three teams securing Nationals spots. To view the nearly complete field (two more teams will be added after the conclusion of the 2019 Junior Nationals on Jan. 19), go to https://go.teamusa.org/2oNluTk.
The Nina Roth rink heads to Meridian Canadian Open this week in North Battleford, Saskatchewan. This is the fifth Grand Slam of Curling event that Team Roth is competing in this season. They made the semifinals back in November in Thunder Bay.

Hrvaška akademija znanosti in umetnosti (hrvaško Hrvatska akademija znanosti i umjetnosti - HAZU) je hrvaška narodna/nacionalna akademija.

Hrvati so imeli že v 16. stoletju svoje akademije, znanstvene ustanove ali znanstvena društva najuglednejših in najbolj učenih osebnosti, ki so si zadali nalogo da s svojimi izdajami, razpravami in občasnimi akademskimi sestanki stalno dajo nove pobude znanstvenemu raziskovanju in gojitvi čiste znanosti, umetnosti in moralnih vrlin. Priprave za osnovanje današnje Akademije so potekale skupaj s hrvaškim narodnim preporodom. Preporodne zamisli o osnovanju »učenega društva« so izrekli v prvih desetletjih 19. stoletja v skladu s težnjami prvakov narodnega bujenja. Oblikovali so jih v sklepe Hrvaškega sabora leta 1836, nato leta 1843, 1845 in 1847. Ti zaključki so vodili k osnovanju ustanove splošnega nacionalnega pomena, najvišje znanstvene in umetniške ustanove - akademije znanosti.

Revolucionarni dogodki med letoma 1848 in 1849 ter absolutizem znotraj avstrijske monarhije so odložili izvršitev teh odločitev za več kot deset let. Po laksenburškem manifestu avstrijskega cesarja Franca Jožefa I. se je do neke mere liberaliziralo politično in družbeno življenje, tako da je nova ustava iz leta 1860 zagotovila neodvisni Hrvaški sabor. V ta namen sklicana Banska konferenca je bila pomembna tudi za osnovanje narodne akademije.

Ustanovo so ustanovili leta 1867 v Zagrebu kot Jugoslovansko akademijo znanosti in umetnosti. Utemeljitelj akademije je bil Josip Juraj Strossmayer. 10. decembra 1860 je Strossmayer prvi Banski konferenci in tedanjemu hrvaškemu banu Josipu Šokčeviću predložil pismeno pogodbo in dal denarno podporo 50.000 goldinarjev, nujno za ustanovitev akademije. Njegovemu zgledu so sledili po celi Hrvaški. Hrvaški sabor, ki so ga izbrali 15. aprila 1861, je že 20. aprila enoglasno sprejel Strossmayerjev predlog o osnovanju Akademije znanosti in jo vzel pod svojo zaščito. Tedaj so sprejeli pravila in jih v obliki zakonskega predloga poslali cesarju, ki ga je sprejel šele 7. avgusta 1863 in pri tem zahteval nekatera dopolnila. Novoizbrani Sabor je pravila leta 1865 predelal in cesar jih je odobril 4. marca 1866. Kmalu zatem je vladar potrdil tudi prvih 14 (od 16) pravih članov Akademije. Osnovanje Akademije je bila logično nadaljevanje ustanovitve Univerze v Zagrebu, ki so jo prvotno ustanovili leta 1669 in jo je Strossmayer leta 1874 obnovil.

Na sestanku 26. julija 1866 so člani sprejeli poslovnik in izbrali Strossmayerja za pokrovitelja, kanonika in zgodovinarja Franja Račkega pa za prvega predsednika Akademije. V svojih prvih dneh je akademija nosila ime Slavorum meridionalium (južnoslovanska) kot dokaz romantično-utopičnega pogleda na slovansko enotnost Južne Evrope.

Strossmayer je bil tudi pokrovitelj stavbe Akademije v Parku Zrinjevac. Stavbo so zgradili leta 1880. V letu 1884 je palača tudi gostila »Strossmayerjevo galerijo«, ki je imela 256 umetniških del, večinoma slik. Galerija je danes ena najuglednejših galerij v Zagrebu.

Akademija je med letoma 1867 in 1882 izdajala znanstveno revijo Rad (delo). Nato je vsak posamezni razred Akademije začel izdajati samostojne revije. Do danes so izdali skoraj 500 izdaj. Leta 1887 je Akademija izdala prvi letopis Ljetopis, kakor tudi več drugih publikacij iz zgodovine in etnologije.

Akademija se je do leta 1991 imenovala Jugoslovanska (JAZU). V času nacističnega režima Neodvisne države Hrvaške med letoma 1941 in 1945 so jo preimenovali v »Hrvaška«.

Q: Using dotnet pack creates NUGET with dependencies but without my own code I have a simple .NET Core 3.1 class library that implements some logging functionality inside classes and has a nlog.config file. The .csproj looks like this
<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">
  <PropertyGroup>
    <TargetFramework>netcoreapp3.1</TargetFramework>
    <OutputType>Library</OutputType>
    <IsPackable>true</IsPackable>
    <GeneratePackageOnBuild>true</GeneratePackageOnBuild>
    <NuspecFile>Sima.Logging.nuspec</NuspecFile>
  </PropertyGroup>

  <ItemGroup>
    <PackageReference Include="NLog" Version="4.7.12" />
    <PackageReference Include="NLog.Web.AspNetCore" Version="4.9.3" />
  </ItemGroup>
</Project>

As you can see, my .csproj references a .nuspec file. I need to do this because I want to include the nlog.config as a content file. The .nuspec looks like this
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<package xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/packaging/2010/07/nuspec.xsd">
  <metadata>
    <id>Sima.Logging</id>
    <version>1.0.0</version>

    <contentFiles>
      <files include="**/nlog.config" buildAction="Content" copyToOutput="true" flatten="true" />
    </contentFiles>

    <dependencies>
      <group>
        <dependency id="NLog" version="4.7.12" exclude="Build,Analyzers" />
        <dependency id="NLog.Web.AspNetCore" version="4.9.3" exclude="Build,Analyzers" />
      </group>
    </dependencies>
  </metadata>

  <files>
    <file src="contentFiles\**" target="contentFiles" />
  </files>
</package>

After packaging my library using dotnet pack, the nupkg only includes the two dependencies to NLog, but none of my actual code (in my class) is included in the package.

It seems like NuGet doesnt know what to actually build. What did I miss?

A: When creating Nuget package (*.nupkg), you must define all files you want to be included in that package. In nuspec config you are missing following:
<files>
   <file src="bin\Debug\*.dll" target="lib" />
</files>

Where bin\Debug\ is the output path of your build. For further reference please visit the documentation.

ED supports Saxena's plea to become approver in AgustaWestland case
14 Mar 2019, 20:18 GMT+10
New Delhi (India) Mar 14 (ANI): The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Thursday supported the plea of Rajiv Saxena to become an approver in AgustaWestland case.
"He will be very useful. That is why supporting his plea," said ED in the court while supporting Saxena's plea. He is an accused in AgustaWestland case.
The businessman has filed a plea in the court to turn an approver in the case.
Following the arguments, Special CBI judge Arvind Kumar has slated the matter for consideration on March 25.
Last week, Saxena, a co-accused in the case, recorded his statement before Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate (ACMM) Samar Vishal during an in-chamber hearing under Section 306 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC).
The entire proceeding lasted for nearly three hours.
On February 27, Saxena had moved an application before Special CBI judge Arvind Kumar to become an approver in the case.
He had told the court that he was not under any pressure and that no assurance was given to him, neither any sought from him.
The ED is being represented by Special Public Prosecutor DP Singh and advocate Naveen Matta, while senior advocate Geeta Luthra and advocate Shivani Luthra are defending Saxena.
Dubai-based businessman was extradited to India on January 31 in connection with the Rs 3,600 crore deal for the purchase of 12 VVIP helicopters from AgustaWestland.
Saxena was allegedly operating a number of bank accounts in Switzerland in which huge amounts of money were deposited, according to a government dossier. (ANI)

Did Hedge Funds Dropped The Ball On Cohu, Inc. (COHU)
Published on December 14, 2019 at 8:58 pm by Debasis Saha in Hedge Funds,News
With the first-quarter round of 13F filings behind us it is time to take a look at the stocks in which some of the best money managers in the world preferred to invest or sell heading into the second quarter. One of these stocks was Cohu, Inc. (NASDAQ:COHU).
Is Cohu, Inc. (NASDAQ:COHU) a buy here? Money managers are in a bullish mood. The number of bullish hedge fund positions rose by 1 recently. Our calculations also showed that COHU isn't among the 30 most popular stocks among hedge funds (click for Q3 rankings and see the video below for Q2 rankings).
Hedge funds' reputation as shrewd investors has been tarnished in the last decade as their hedged returns couldn't keep up with the unhedged returns of the market indices. Our research has shown that hedge funds' large-cap stock picks indeed failed to beat the market between 1999 and 2016. However, we were able to identify in advance a select group of hedge fund holdings that outperformed the Russell 2000 ETFs by 40 percentage points since May 2014 (see the details here). We were also able to identify in advance a select group of hedge fund holdings that'll significantly underperform the market. We have been tracking and sharing the list of these stocks since February 2017 and they lost 27.8% through November 21, 2019. That's why we believe hedge fund sentiment is an extremely useful indicator that investors should pay attention to.

We leave no stone unturned when looking for the next great investment idea. For example Europe is set to become the world's largest cannabis market, so we check out this European marijuana stock pitch. One of the most bullish analysts in America just put his money where his mouth is. He says, "I'm investing more today than I did back in early 2009." So we check out his pitch. We read hedge fund investor letters and listen to stock pitches at hedge fund conferences. We also rely on the best performing hedge funds' buy/sell signals. Let's take a look at the new hedge fund action regarding Cohu, Inc. (NASDAQ:COHU).
Hedge fund activity in Cohu, Inc. (NASDAQ:COHU)
At the end of the third quarter, a total of 11 of the hedge funds tracked by Insider Monkey were bullish on this stock, a change of 10% from one quarter earlier. On the other hand, there were a total of 15 hedge funds with a bullish position in COHU a year ago. So, let's check out which hedge funds were among the top holders of the stock and which hedge funds were making big moves.
Among these funds, Renaissance Technologies held the most valuable stake in Cohu, Inc. (NASDAQ:COHU), which was worth $17.9 million at the end of the third quarter. On the second spot was Royce & Associates which amassed $14.6 million worth of shares. VIEX Capital Advisors, D E Shaw, and Intrinsic Edge Capital were also very fond of the stock, becoming one of the largest hedge fund holders of the company. In terms of the portfolio weights assigned to each position VIEX Capital Advisors allocated the biggest weight to Cohu, Inc. (NASDAQ:COHU), around 3.18% of its 13F portfolio. Intrinsic Edge Capital is also relatively very bullish on the stock, designating 0.19 percent of its 13F equity portfolio to COHU.
As aggregate interest increased, some big names have been driving this bullishness. VIEX Capital Advisors, managed by Eric Singer, created the biggest position in Cohu, Inc. (NASDAQ:COHU).

I like to use rsync for scp for transferring files from another server whenever possible. But sometimes, we will be limited to use ftp for the same task due to different ssh port than the standard 22 as scp and rsync uses ssh.
Downloading each file separately one after another is tedious task than recursively download them. We can use wget with ftp protocol for recursively downloading files from another server. We will find out how to do this below.
We can use the below syntax for downloading file using wget recursively.
Here -r make sure that files are downloaded recursively. If you want to download a specific folder and its contents recursively, change the command accordingly.
If we need to just download a backup file at home directory of user, there is no need for -r (recursive) switch.
This will download the file current working directory.
As you see above, there is no need to use server.com, but you can use the server's resolving ip address instead and it will save some dns look ups and make the process faster, a bit faster.

\section{Introduction}

The measurement of  inclusive jet production
in $p\overline{p}$ collisions at
$\sqrt{s} = 1.96 \ \rm TeV$  constitutes a  test
of perturbative QCD (pQCD)~\cite{pqcd} predictions over more than eight orders of magnitude in cross section,
and is sensitive to the presence of physics beyond the standard model~\cite{newphys}.
The increased center-of-mass energy and integrated luminosity in Run~II at the Tevatron make it possible to
measure the cross section for jets with transverse momentum~\cite{coord}, $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$,  up to about $700 \ {\rm GeV/c}$, extending
the $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$ range by more than 150~GeV/c compared with previous results~\cite{runIjet}.
This letter presents a new measurement of the inclusive jet production cross section as a function of $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$
for jets with $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet} > 54 \ \rm GeV/c$ and rapidity~\cite{coord} in the region $0.1 < | \rm y^{\rm jet} | < 0.7$, where
jets are reconstructed with the  $\rm k_{\rm T}$ algorithm \cite{ktalgo,soper}.
Similar measurements have been carried out using cone-based jet algorithms in Run II~\cite{runIIjet}.
However, the $\rm k_{\rm T}$ algorithm has been widely used for precise QCD measurements at both
$e^+ e^-$ and $e^\pm p$ colliders, and
allows a well defined  comparison to the theoretical predictions,
without introducing  additional  parameters~\cite{soper} in the calculations.
The measurements are corrected
for detector effects back to the particle (hadron) level~\cite{hadron} and compared to pQCD
next-to-leading order (NLO)
predictions~\cite{nlo}.
A proper comparison with the theory requires corrections to account for non-perturbative  contributions
that become important at low $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$.
This  could  explain the marginal agreement  observed in previous studies~\cite{d0kt}.

The CDF II detector is described in detail elsewhere~\cite{cdfii}.
Here, the sub-detectors most relevant
for this analysis are briefly discussed. The detector has a
charged particle tracking system immersed in a 1.4~T magnetic field, aligned coaxially with the beam line.
A silicon microstrip detector provides tracking over the radial range 1.35 to 28 cm
and covers the pseudorapidity~\cite{coord} range $|\eta| \leq 2$.
A cylindrical 3.1 m long open-cell drift chamber covers the radial range from 44 to 132 cm and
provides full tracking coverage for $|\eta| \leq 1$. Segmented sampling calorimeters, arranged in a projective tower
geometry, surround the tracking system and measure the energy flow of interacting particles in
$|\eta| \leq 3.6$. The central barrel calorimeter~\cite{ccal,wha} covers the region $|\eta| < 1$.
It consists of electromagnetic and hadronic calorimeters
segmented into  480 towers of size $0.1$ in $\eta$ and  $15^\circ$ in $\phi$.
The measured energy resolution for electrons
is $\frac{\sigma(E)}{E} = \frac{13.5 \%}{\sqrt{E_T \ [\rm GeV]}} \oplus 2 \% $.
The single-pion energy resolution, as determined from
test-beam data, is $\frac{50 \%}{\sqrt{E_T \ [\rm GeV]}} \oplus 3 \%$.
A hadronic calorimeter complements the coverage of the central barrel calorimeter in the region
$0.6 < |\eta| < 1.0$ and provides additional forward coverage out to $|\eta| < 1.3$.
The forward region, $1.1 < |\eta| < 3.6$, is covered by scintillator-plate electromagnetic and
hadronic calorimeters. Cherenkov counters in the region $3.7 < |\eta| < 4.7$ measure the number of inelastic $p \overline{p}$ collisions to
compute the luminosity~\cite{clc}.

Monte Carlo event samples are used to determine the response of the detector and the
correction factors to the hadron level. The generated samples are passed through a full
CDF detector simulation (based on  {\sc geant3}~\cite{geant} where the {\sc gflash}~\cite{gflash}
package is used to simulate the energy deposition in the calorimeters) and then reconstructed and analyzed using the same
analysis chain as
for the data. Samples of simulated inclusive jet events have been generated using
the {\sc pythia} 6.203~\cite{pythia} and {\sc herwig} 6.4~\cite{herwig} Monte Carlo generators.
CTEQ5L~\cite{cteq5l} parton distribution functions (PDFs) are used for the proton and antiproton.
The {\sc pythia} samples have been created using a special tuned set of parameters, denoted as
{\sc pythia-tune~a},  that includes  enhanced contributions from initial-state
gluon radiation and  secondary parton interactions between proton/antiproton beam remnants. Tune~A
was developed with dedicated studies of the underlying event
using the CDF Run I data \cite{underlying}, and  describes the measured jet shapes in Run II~\cite{shapes}.

The $\rm k_{\rm T}$ algorithm is used to reconstruct
jets from the energy depositions in the calorimeter towers with transverse momentum above 0.1 GeV/c.
First, all towers are considered as protojets. The quantities
$\rm k_{\rm T,i} = p_{T,i}^2$  and $\rm k_{\rm T, (i,j)} = \rm min(p_{T,i}^2,p_{T,j}^2) \cdot {\Delta R_{i,j}^2}/{D^2}$,
are computed for each protojet and pair of protojets respectively, where  $\rm p_{T,i}$ denotes the transverse momentum of the
$\rm i^{\rm th}$ protojet, $\Delta R_{\rm {i,j}}$ is the distance
($y-\phi$ space) between each pair of protojets, and $D$ is a parameter that approximately controls the size of the jet.
All $\rm k_{\rm T,i}$ and $\rm  k_{\rm T,(i,j)}$ values are then collected into a single sorted list. In this combined sorted list, if the smallest quantity is of the type $\rm k_{\rm T,i}$, the corresponding protojet
is promoted to be a jet
 and removed from the list. Otherwise, if the smallest quantity is of the type  $\rm  k_{\rm T, (i,j)}$, the protojets
are combined into a single protojet by summing up their four-vector components. The procedure  is iterated over protojets
until the list is empty.
The jet transverse momentum, rapidity, and azimuthal angle are denoted as
$\rm p_{\rm T,CAL}^{\rm jet}$, $\rm y^{\rm jet}_{\rm CAL}$, and $\rm \phi^{\rm jet}_{\rm CAL}$, respectively.
The same jet algorithm is applied to all the final-state particles
in the Monte Carlo to search for  jets at the hadron level.
The resulting hadron-level jet
variables are denoted as $\rm p_{\rm T,HAD}^{\rm jet}$, $\rm y^{\rm jet}_{\rm HAD}$, and $\rm \phi^{\rm jet}_{\rm HAD}$.

The measurements presented in this letter correspond to a total integrated luminosity of
$385 \pm 22 \ \rm pb^{-1}$.
Events are selected online using three-level
trigger paths~\cite{trigger} with different prescales.
In the first-level trigger, a single trigger tower
with $E_T$ above 5 GeV or 10 GeV is required.
In the second-level trigger, clusters are
formed around the selected trigger towers, and
a cluster
with $E_T$ above 15 to  90 GeV, depending on the trigger path, is required. In the
third-level trigger,  jets are reconstructed using a cone-based algorithm,
   and a jet with $E_T$ above 20 to 100 GeV is required.
Jets are then searched for  using the $\rm k_{\rm T}$ algorithm, as explained above, with $D=0.7$.
For each trigger data sample, the threshold on the minimum $\rm p_{\rm T,CAL}^{\rm jet}$ is chosen in such a way
that the trigger selection is fully
efficient.
The events are required to have at least one jet with rapidity in the region $0.1 < |\rm y^{\rm jet}_{\rm CAL}| < 0.7$ and
corrected transverse momentum (see below) above 54 GeV/c.  The events are selected to have at least
one reconstructed primary vertex with  $z$-position within 60~cm
around the nominal interaction point. In order to remove beam-related backgrounds and cosmics rays, the events are required to fulfill $\ETM/\sqrt{\Sigma E_T} < F(\rm p_{\rm T,CAL}^{\rm leading \ jet})$, where $\ETM$ denotes the missing transverse
energy~\cite{met}  and $\Sigma E_T = \sum_i E_T^i$ is the total transverse energy of the event, as measured using
calorimeter towers with $ E_T^i$ above 100~MeV. The threshold function
$F(\rm p_{\rm T,CAL}^{\rm leading \ jet})$ is defined as $F(\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet})  = \rm{min} (2+0.0125 \times \rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}, 7)$, where $\rm p_{\rm T,CAL}^{\rm leading \ jet}$ is  the uncorrected
transverse momentum of the leading jet (highest $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$) and the units are  GeV. This criterion  is designed to
preserve more than $95 \%$ of the QCD events, as determined from Monte Carlo studies.
A visual scan for
$\rm p_{\rm T,CAL}^{\rm jet} > 400$~GeV/c showed no remaining backgrounds.

The measured jet transverse momentum includes additional contributions
from multiple proton-antiproton interactions per bunch crossing at high instantaneous luminosity.
The data were collected at instantaneous
luminosities varying between \mbox{$0.2 \times 10^{31} {\rm cm^{-2} s^{-1}}$} and
$9.6 \times 10^{31} {\rm cm^{-2} s^{-1}}$.
At the highest instantaneous luminosities, an average of
two interactions per bunch crossing are produced.
This mainly affects the measured cross section at low
$\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$ where the contributions are sizeable.
In CDF, multiple interactions are identified via the presence of additional primary vertices reconstructed from charged particles.
The measured jet transverse momenta are corrected for  this effect by removing a certain amount of transverse momentum, $\epsilon$, for each additional primary vertex. A value $\epsilon  = 1.62^{+ 0.70}_{-0.46}$~GeV/c is determined from the data by requiring that, after the correction is applied,  the
ratio of cross sections at low and high instantaneous luminosities does not show any $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$ dependence.

The reconstruction of the jet variables in the calorimeter
is studied using Monte Carlo.  These studies
indicate that the angular variables of a jet are
reconstructed with no significant systematic shift and with a resolution better than 0.05 units
in $y$ and $\phi$ at low $\rm p_{\rm T,CAL}^{\rm jet}$, improving as $\rm p_{\rm T,CAL}^{\rm jet}$ increases. The measured
jet transverse momentum systematically underestimates that of the hadron level jet, which is mainly attributed
to the non-compensating nature of the calorimeter~\cite{calor}.
For jets with $\rm p_{\rm T,CAL}^{\rm jet}$ about 50~GeV/c, the jet transverse
momentum is reconstructed with an average shift of $-19 \%$ and a resolution of $14 \%$. The jet reconstruction
improves as $\rm p_{\rm T,CAL}^{\rm jet}$ increases. For jets with $\rm p_{\rm T,CAL}^{\rm jet}$ about 500~GeV/c, the  average shift is
$-5 \%$ and the resolution is about $7 \%$.
The bisector method~\cite{bisector} is employed to evaluate
how well the Monte Carlo reproduces the measured jet energy resolutions. Data and
Monte Carlo agree within a relative uncertainty of $\pm 8 \%$
over the whole $\rm p_{\rm T,CAL}^{\rm jet}$ range.

The measured $\rm p_{\rm T,CAL}^{\rm jet}$ distribution is unfolded back to the hadron level
 using Monte Carlo event samples. {\sc pythia-tune~a} provides a
reasonable description of the different jet and underlying event quantities, and
is used to determine the correction factors in the unfolding procedure. In order to avoid
any bias on the correction factors due to
the particular PDF set used,
which translates into
slightly different simulated $\rm p_{\rm T,CAL}^{\rm jet}$ distributions, {\sc pythia-tune~a}  is re-weighted until it accurately follows
the measured $\rm p_{\rm T,CAL}^{\rm jet}$ spectrum. The unfolding  is carried out in two steps.
First, an average correction is computed.
The correlation $< \rm p_{\rm T,HAD}^{\rm jet} - \rm p_{\rm T,CAL}^{\rm jet} >$ vs  $<\rm p_{\rm T,CAL}^{\rm jet}>$
is used to extract correction factors
which are then applied to the measured jets to obtain the corrected transverse momenta, $\rm p_{\rm T, COR}^{\rm jet}$.
A raw cross section is defined as
$\frac{{\rm d}^2 \sigma}{{\rm d} \rm p_{\rm T, COR}^{\rm jet} d \rm y^{\rm jet}_{\rm CAL}} = \frac{1}{\mathcal{L}} \frac{N^{\rm jet}_{\rm COR}}{\Delta\rm p_{\rm T, COR}^{\rm jet} \ \Delta\rm y^{\rm jet}_{\rm CAL} }$,
where $N^{\rm jet}_{\rm COR}$ denotes the number of jets in a given $\rm p_{\rm T, COR}^{\rm jet}$ bin,
$\Delta\rm p_{\rm T, COR}^{\rm jet}$ is the size of the bin, $ \Delta\rm y^{\rm jet}_{\rm CAL}$
denotes the region in $\rm y^{\rm jet}_{\rm CAL}$ considered, and  $\mathcal{L}$ is the luminosity.
Second,
the measurements  are corrected for acceptance
and smearing effects using a bin-by-bin unfolding procedure, which also accounts for
the efficiency of the selection criteria. The unfolding factors,
$U (\rm p_{\rm T, COR}^{\rm jet}) = \frac{d^2 \sigma / d  \rm p_{\rm T,HAD}^{\rm jet} d \rm y^{\rm jet}_{\rm HAD}}{d^2 \sigma / d \rm p_{\rm T, COR}^{\rm jet} d \rm y^{\rm jet}_{\rm CAL}}$,
are extracted from Monte Carlo and
applied to the measured $\rm p_{\rm T, COR}^{\rm jet}$ distribution to obtain the final result. The factor $U(\rm p_{\rm T, COR}^{\rm jet})$ increases
with $\rm p_{\rm T, COR}^{\rm jet}$ and  varies
between 1.04 at low  $\rm p_{\rm T, COR}^{\rm jet}$  and 1.3 at very high $\rm p_{\rm T, COR}^{\rm jet}$.

A detailed study of the different systematic uncertainties was carried out~\cite{olga}. The measured jet
energies were varied by  $\pm 2 \%$ at low $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$ and  $\pm 3 \%$ at high $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$
to account for the uncertainty on the absolute energy scale in
the calorimeter~\cite{jetcornim}. This introduces an uncertainty in the measured cross section
which varies between $\pm 10 \%$ at low $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$  and ${}^{+ 55 \%}_{- 40\%}$
 at high $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$.
A $\pm 8 \%$ uncertainty on the jet energy resolution introduces an uncertainty
between $\pm 2 \%$ at low $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$ and $\pm 8 \%$  at high $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$.
The unfolding procedure was repeated using {\sc herwig} instead of {\sc pythia-tune~a} to account for the
uncertainty on the modeling of the parton cascades and the jet fragmentation into hadrons. This translates into an uncertainty about $\pm 5 \%$ at low $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$.
The unfolding procedure was also carried out using  unweighted
{\sc pythia-tune~a}, to estimate the residual dependence on the $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$ spectrum.
This introduces an uncertainty of $\pm 4 \%$ above 400 GeV/c, which
becomes negligible at lower $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$.
The quoted uncertainty
on $\epsilon$ was taken into account.
The effect on the measured cross section is less than $\pm 3 \%$ and negligible for jets with $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$ above 200~GeV/c.
An additional  $5.8 \%$ uncertainty on the total luminosity is
not included.

\label{fig:pt}
\end{figure}
Figure~\ref{fig:pt} shows the measured cross section as a function
of $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$ compared to NLO pQCD predictions. The data are reported in Table~I.
The cross section decreases by more than eight orders of magnitude as $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$ increases from  54~GeV/c up to
about 700~GeV/c.
The NLO pQCD predictions are computed using the {\sc jetrad} program~\cite{nlo} with CTEQ6.1M PDFs~\cite{cteq} and the
renormalization and factorization scales ($\mu_R$ and $\mu_F$) set to $\mu_0 = \rm max (\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet})/2$.

Different sources of uncertainty in the theoretical
predictions were considered.
The main contribution comes from the uncertainty on the PDFs and was computed using
the Hessian method~\cite{hessian}. It
varies from ${}^{+20 \%}_{-10 \%}$ at low $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$, and ${}^{+7 \%}_{-5 \%}$ for $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$ about 100~GeV/c, to
${}^{+70 \%}_{-30 \%}$  at  high $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$, dominated by the limited knowledge of the gluon~PDF.
An increase of $\mu_R$ and $\mu_F$ from  $\mu_0$ to $2 \mu_0$ reduces the
theoretical  predictions by $ 2 \%$ at low $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$ and
$8 \%$ at high $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$. Values  significantly smaller than $\mu_0$
lead to unstable NLO results and were not considered.

The theoretical prediction includes a
 correction  factor, $C_{\rm HAD}(\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet})$,  that approximately accounts for
non-perturbative contributions
from  the underlying event
and fragmentation into hadrons (see Table~I).
$C_{\rm HAD}$ was estimated, using
{\sc pythia-tune~a}, as the ratio between the nominal $\rm p_{\rm T,HAD}^{\rm jet}$ distribution and the one obtained
by turning off the interactions between proton and antiproton remnants and the fragmentation in the Monte Carlo.
The parton-to-hadron correction shows a strong $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$ dependence and decreases as $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$ increases from
about 1.2 at $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$ of 54~GeV/c, and 1.1 for $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$ about 100~GeV/c, to
1.02 at  high $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$.
The uncertainty on $C_{\rm HAD}$ is about $13 \%$ at low $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$ and decreases up to $1.6 \%$ at high $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$, as
determined
using {\sc herwig} instead of {\sc pythia-tune~a}.

Figure~\ref{fig:ratio} shows the ratio data/theory as a function of $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$. Good agreement is observed
in the whole range in $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$.
A $\chi^2$ test, where all the
systematic uncertainties on the data are considered independent but fully correlated across different $\rm p_{\rm T}^{\rm jet}$ bins
and the uncertainty on $C_{\rm HAD}$ is also included, gives a $\chi^2$ probability of $56 \%$.
In addition, Figure~\ref{fig:ratio} shows the ratio of pQCD predictions
using MRST2004~\cite{mrst} and CTEQ6.1M PDF sets,

theoretical and experimental uncertainties.

based on $385 \ \rm pb^{-1}$ of CDF Run~II data.
The measured cross section is in agreement with NLO pQCD predictions after
the necessary non-perturbative parton-to-hadron corrections are taken into account.

Far Resources and Redline Minerals to Advance New Mexico Project
June 28, 2016 – Vancouver, B.C.: Far Resources Ltd. (CSE:FAT) ("Far" or "the Company") has further amended its option agreement (the "Amended Option Agreement") with Redline Minerals Inc. ("Redline"), Redline Mining Corporation ("RMC"), and Southwest Land & Exploration Inc. ("SWLE") (collectively, the "Optionors") to acquire up to an 80% interest in and to 20 unpatented and 2 patented mineral claims located in Sierra County, New Mexico, U.S.A. known as the LG/Ivan and Little Granite unpatented mineral claims and the Ivanhoe/Emporia patented mineral claims known as the Winston Property (collectively the "Property"). See Far Resources' news release dated February 1, 2016 for details.
Under the terms of the Amended Option Agreement, upon Far Resources having earned an initial 50% interest, it may elect to earn a further 30% interest by paying the Optionor an additional $180,000 cash, (reduced from $240,000 in the original agreement); issuing an additional 1,500,000 shares; and incurring an additional $900,000 (reduced from $1,500,000 in the original agreement) in Exploration Expenditures within three years of the election date.
Further to the update provided in the news release dated February 1, 2016, the Company has initiated permitting for an exploration program on the Little Granite claims to verify the results from work carried out in the 1980s in the Little Granite mine area. Sampling carried out by Far Resources in late 2013 confirmed the presence of abundant strongly mineralised epithermal vein material on the mine dumps, assumed to have been excavated during the decline development in the early 1980s. Two samples thought to be representative of the main style of quartz veining returned values of 179 g/t silver and 2.9 g/t gold and 170 g/t silver and 6.7 g/t gold respectively, while a third sample of grey, finer-grained quartz material returned values of 1,439 g/t silver and 25.2 g/t gold.
Limited drilling in 1984 returned several high grade vein intercepts (see news release dated February 1, 2016 for details). These results pre-date the implementation of NI 43-101, and since the work was not conducted under the supervision of a QP, cannot be relied upon and are presented as historical information only. However, the sampling conducted by Far suggests the results are credible and that further work using modern techniques and supervision is warranted.
Keith Anderson, President and CEO of Far Resources commented, "We are pleased that, together with Redline, we have been able to amend the agreement and create an environment that allows us to move this project forward."
To date, the Company has made cash payments to Redline totaling $120,000 and has issued an aggregate total of 1,400,000 Common shares in the equity of the Company to satisfy its obligations, which are currently up to date. All other terms remain the same and are described in the Company's disclosure documents available on SEDAR (www.sedar.com).
The technical content of this news release has been reviewed and approved by Lindsay Bottomer, P.Geo., an independent director of Far Resources Ltd. and a Qualified Person under NI 43-101.
Option Grant
The Company also wishes to announce that it has granted 500,000 stock options to certain officers, directors and consultants of the Company (the "Options"). The Options are exercisable into common shares (the "Shares") of the Company at a price of $0.10 per Share for a period of five years from the date of grant.
Far Resources Ltd. is an exploration company, publicly traded on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the symbol FAT, focused on the identification and development of high potential mineral opportunities in stable jurisdictions.

All About Beeswax

Honey Recipes
Welcome To Turberville's Honey
Hello my name is Bob Turberville and I've been keeping bees on and off since 1988 but it wasn't until I moved to Wales in 1995 that I began keeping more beehives in different places away from home. I'm proud to offer a quality honey that tastes much better, in my opinion, than honey in off-the-shelf jars offered by the bigger retail outlets. I only sell raw honey produced by my own bees. 'Raw' honey sounds a bit odd but it just means that it has it not been pasteurised or microfiltered. I treat my honey gently before it goes into a jar: it's extracted and only coarse and medium filtered through metal sieves. You need only taste raw honey to realise the big difference between raw honey and processed honey. You've come to the right place where you can buy genuine raw honey and beeswax from Wales.
More About Raw Honey
Raw honey is not like the regular honey you buy off the shelf. It is honey that has been extracted from the honeycombs and then coarse filtered before being poured into jars. This preserves the character of the honey which tastes differently depending upon the time of year and the flowers the bees have been visiting. Turberville's honey is not pasteurised but coarse strained leaving pollen grains, enzymes and minerals intact which gives raw honey a distinct flavour and aroma.
Is Your Honey Organic?
No, it is not organic because of where the hives are located. To be organic honey, my hives would have to be placed in an area where there is a four-mile radius of organic crops and/or uncultivated land around them to provide a source of nectar and pollen for honey bees.Due to the relatively small size of Welsh farms and the fragmented nature of uncultivated land in Wales means that I do not have any apiaries that meet the organic honey standards.As far as taste and purity is concerned, I'm confident that there is no difference between my honey and organic honey.

Dr. Stamatios I. Sinis, a retired psychiatrist who had been medical director at Key Point Health Services in Catonsville for nearly three decades, died of cancer May 28 at Brightwood Center in Lutherville. The longtime Owings Mills resident was 72.
"Dr. Sinis was a very caring and compassionate man who always went the extra mile for his patients," said Dr. Ted Fraker, a psychologist who is clinical program director at Key Point. "No matter who they were or from what economic background, he always had the highest regard for them, and believed they had the potential to get well and lead productive lives.
"He was one of the outstanding healers of his time and a remarkable person in our clinic. No matter who met him, they knew instantly that he was a human being who believed in people," Dr. Fraker said.
Dr. Sinis was born and raised in Keratea, Greece, a small village near Athens, and after graduating from high school, he enrolled at Athens University Medical School. In 1961, he earned degrees in psychiatry and neurology, and then completed his residency at the medical school.
An interest in the field of neurophysiology, brought Dr. Sinis to Rochester, N.Y., in 1969 for a two-year research assignment at the University of Rochester. In 1972, he accepted a fellowship at Sinai Hospital in Baltimore.
Dr. Sinis completed a second residency at the University of Maryland School of Medicine in 1975 and was board-certified in psychiatry.
He began his career in 1975 as a staff psychiatrist with the Baltimore County Bureau of Mental Health at the old Southwestern Community Mental Health Center, now Key Point Health Services, which provided services to residents of Catonsville, Arbutus and Lansdowne.
"He was legendary among his patients. His caseload was always full, and still he took on more patients," said Amy Wilds, a social worker and longtime colleague.
"Dr. Sinis made house calls because when patients didn't come in, they thought they no longer had a problem, which was part of the problem. He'd go and visit them and, along with his presence, he brought medicine and therapy," said Paul Imre, a psychologist who retired in 1988 as the center's director.
"He was very modest, humble and simple, but brilliant. And there wasn't anything he wouldn't do to help a patient. His gentle smile and twinkling eyes -- always a comfort, always putting others first," said Lori L. Butkovich, a psychiatric nurse who worked alongside Dr. Sinis for many years. "He never buckled under stress and always stayed calm. And he was always very supportive of the staff."
In addition to his work at the center, Dr. Sinis was a staff psychiatrist with the Carroll County Mental Health Center and Aspire in Westminster. From 1995 until 2002, he practiced child psychiatry in Hagerstown, and as a volunteer with the Greek Orthodox Counseling and Social Services, provided psychiatric services.
In 2002, then -altimore County Executive C.A. Dutch Ruppersberger lauded Dr. Sinis for his years of devotion to patients at ceremonies renaming the mental health clinic for him.
For the last three years, Dr. Sinis battled cancer and was never "officially" retired from his post.
"We never wanted to officially retire him, and we didn't," Dr. Fraker said. "So, he is still with us, and his smiling portrait in the clinic lobby greets us each day."
Dr. Sinis -- and his wife of 44 years, the former Martha Kalothi who survives him -- became U.S. citizens in 1996.
He enjoyed listening to classical and Greek music, visiting art museums and galleries, and visiting family and friends in Greece. He also had a large telescope that he used to study the heavens, family members said.
"He was a very learned man who spoke ancient Greek fluently. And when he came to dinner at our house, he'd say grace in ancient Greek, and you knew that God heard it," Dr. Imre said.
Dr. Sinis was a longtime member of St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church, 2504 Cub Hill Road, Parkville, where a memorial service will be held at 10 a.m. July 10.
In addition to his wife, Dr. Sinis is survived by a son, Phaedon Sinis of Iceland; two daughters, Spyrithoula Sinis-Terezis of Cincinnati and Katia-Elena Figueroa of Audubon, Pa.; two sisters, Kleio Drosou and Maria Liaveri, both of Greece; and six grandchildren.

Michael Cassidy, Brennan Williams and Pluto the dog star in a scene from the movie "The Stray."
BALTIMORE (CNS)—For a lot of people, surviving getting struck by lightning might be enough to change their life.
Hollywood writer and director Mitch Davis lived through such an ordeal, but in the mind of Davis and his family, that's not what turned their life around.
He said that for many families, stress takes its toll early on in a marriage with financial concerns, career crises, marriage difficulties and dealing with young children.
At one point. he suggested getting a dog, to help the children. His wife, Michelle, was not in favor of it, but she had read an article that said strays are the best kind of dog for a family. Shortly thereafter, a stray followed their son, Christian, home.
Davis and his wife, played in the movie by Michael Cassidy and Sarah Lancaster, are seen leading their family in prayer and making faith a priority for them. The movie became a family project of sorts, with Davis' son Parker, co-writing the script; music by son Christian; and other Davises behind the scenes.
"The Stray" is a tribute to the dog who pulled together a family, and shows how families work through the good and bad times.
Davis said he hopes that families that see the movie will be reminded there is a God who loves us no matter where we are, no matter our circumstances.
"We might be on a mountainside in Colorado having been struck by lightning—paralyzed and dying; we might be a single mom in our city trying to make the rent every month. God knows us and loves us and will help us reach out to him. He might send us a stray dog. He might send an angel in a surprising form," he said.


Impact NY is researching and preparing with experts to host a debate on how we should reinvent our prisons and corrections system for our current age. Impact Prisons is a six-month project dedicated to educating the public on the United States Prison System and Criminal Justice Reform and supporting iintelligent and hopefully transformative improvements. The project will culminate with a public event to be held in New York City with top Experts in the fields of Criminal Justice, Law Enforcement, and Neuroscience. In partnership with Columbia University's Tamer Center for Social Enterprise and Harvard's Economic's Department. Our aim is to provide a balanced, logic driven debate, on the future of this critical issue to help inform our community and get beyond the next leaders in this critical social issue.
8:30pm Panel ends and time for discussion and wrap up.

Q: Calcular un slice a partir de un índice imaginario dado en array con 3 Dimensiones Tengo el siguiente problema:
•   Tengo un array de 3 dimensiones 9x9x9 lleno con números del 0 al 728
•   Debo imaginarme que se divide en 27 arrays de 3x3x3 tal como esta en la imagen
•   Debo crear una función, que pasándole como parámetro el numero del bloque (el numero grande),  me devuelva el slice para obtener ese bloque.

Por ejemplo, para el bloque 0, para obtener los valores de ese bloque se debe hacer el slice así:
a = np.arange(729).reshape(9,9,9)
print(a)
print(a[0:3 , 0:3 , 0:3])

y se obtiene:

Pero entonces la idea es crear la función, que según, pasándole el índice (el numero grande), se devuelva el array que pertenezca a ese índice. Pensé hacerlo con un elseif y poner el slice correspondiente para cada caso pero lo veo muy ineficiente, no se si habrá otra mejor forma de hacerlo.
Edit: Aquí agrego lo que hice, pero queda muy largo :s
la idea es depronto hacer mas eficiente esa funcion slice block
import numpy as np

def sliceBlock(bloque):
    subArray= ""
    if(bloque == 0):
        subArray = a[0:3 , 0:3 , 0:3]
    elif(bloque ==1):
        subArray = a[0:3 , 0:3 , 3:6]
    elif(bloque ==2):
        subArray = a[0:3 , 0:3 , 6:9]
    elif(bloque ==3):
        subArray = a[0:3 , 3:6 , 0:3]
    elif(bloque ==4):
        subArray = a[0:3 , 3:6 , 3:6]
    elif(bloque ==5):
        subArray = a[0:3 , 3:6 , 6:9]
    elif(bloque ==6):
        subArray = a[0:3 , 6:9 , 0:3]
    elif(bloque ==7):
        subArray = a[0:3 , 6:9 , 3:6]
    elif(bloque ==8):
        subArray = a[0:3 , 6:9 , 6:9]
    elif(bloque ==9):
        subArray = a[3:6 , 0:3 , 0:3]
    elif(bloque ==10):
        subArray = a[3:6 , 0:3 , 3:6]
    elif(bloque ==11):
        subArray = a[3:6 , 0:3 , 6:9]
    elif(bloque ==12):
        subArray = a[3:6 , 3:6 , 0:3]
    elif(bloque ==13):
        subArray = a[3:6 , 3:6 , 3:6]
    elif(bloque ==14):
        subArray = a[3:6 , 3:6 , 6:9]
    elif(bloque ==15):
        subArray = a[3:6 , 6:9 , 0:3]
    elif(bloque ==16):
        subArray = a[3:6 , 6:9 , 3:6]
    elif(bloque ==17):
        subArray = a[3:6 , 6:9 , 6:9]
    elif(bloque ==18):
        subArray = a[6:9 , 0:3 , 0:3]
    elif(bloque ==19):
        subArray = a[6:9 , 0:3 , 3:6]
    elif(bloque ==20):
        subArray = a[6:9 , 0:3 , 6:9]
    elif(bloque ==21):
        subArray = a[6:9 , 3:6 , 0:3]
    elif(bloque ==22):
        subArray = a[6:9 , 3:6 , 3:6]
    elif(bloque ==23):
        subArray = a[6:9 , 3:6 , 6:9]
    elif(bloque ==24):
        subArray = a[6:9 , 6:9 , 0:3]
    elif(bloque ==25):
        subArray = a[6:9 , 6:9 , 3:6]
    elif(bloque ==26):
        subArray = a[6:9 , 6:9 , 6:9]
    else:
        subArray = "Ese bloque no existe"
    return subArray

if __name__ == "__main__":
    a = np.arange(729).reshape(9,9,9)
    print("Array Completo:")
    print(a)
    while(True):
        print("Digite -1 si quiere salir")
        block = int(input("Digite el indice del cubo: "))
        print("-------------------------------")
        if(block == -1):
            break
        else:
            print(sliceBlock(block),"\n")

A: Se pueden computar los índices del slice con una fórmula.
La rodaja general que queremos obtener es:
a[i0:i0+3 , i1:i1+3 , i2:i2+3]

Solo nos queda encontrar qué fórmula nos daría el valor adecuado para i0, i1 e i2 en función del número de bloque.
Tratando de razonarlo, pero también mediante un poco de ensayo y error, he encontrado que la fórmula sería la siguiente:

*

*Si dividimos el número de bloque entre 9, nos sale 0 para los primeros 9 números de bloque, 1 para los 9 siguientes y 2 para los 9 útimos. Multiplicando ese valor por 3 sale i0.

*Si dividimos el número de bloque entre 3 salen números 0,0,0, 1,1,1, 2,2,2, 3,3,3, 4,4,4 etc.. según va creciendo el número de bloque. Tomando el módulo 3 de esos números sale ya un ciclo: 0,0,0, 1,1,1, 2,2,2, 0,0,0, 1,1,1, ... Multiplicando eso por 3 tenemos el índice i1

*Si hacemos el módulo 3 del número de bloque sale el ciclo 0,1,2, 0,1,2, 0,1,2, ... para números de bloque crecientes. Basta multiplicar por 3 esos y ya tenemos i2.

Así pues, una función que nos computaría los índices apropiados para los slices, en función del número de bloque, sería la siguiente:
def calcular_indices(n):
  i0, i1, i2 = n//9*3, (n//3)%3*3, n%3*3
  return tuple(slice(i, i+3) for i in (i0, i1, i2))

Un ejemplo, si le pasamos como número de bloque n el 2 por ejemplo, obtenemos:
>>> calcular_indices(2)
(slice(0, 3, None), slice(0, 3, None), slice(6, 9, None))

Lo que quiere decir que hay que usar a[0:3, 0:3, 6:9] para obtener el bloque 1.
Ya podemos entonces escribir la función buscada:
def sliceBlock(a, bloque):
  x, y, z = calcular_indices(bloque)
  return a[x, y, z]

Ejemplo de funcionamiento:
>>> print(sliceBlock(a, 1))
[[[  3   4   5]
  [ 12  13  14]
  [ 21  22  23]]

 [[ 84  85  86]
  [ 93  94  95]
  [102 103 104]]

 [[165 166 167]
  [174 175 176]
  [183 184 185]]]

A: Una forma un poco más performante es reemplazar los bloques if por un diccionario con las soluciones precalculadas:
def sliceBlock(a, bloque):

    soluciones = {
        0: a[0:3 , 0:3 , 0:3],
        1: a[0:3 , 0:3 , 3:6],
        2: a[0:3 , 0:3 , 6:9],
        3: a[0:3 , 3:6 , 0:3],
        4: a[0:3 , 3:6 , 3:6],
        5: a[0:3 , 3:6 , 6:9],
        6: a[0:3 , 6:9 , 0:3],
        7: a[0:3 , 6:9 , 3:6],
        8: a[0:3 , 6:9 , 6:9],
        9: a[3:6 , 0:3 , 0:3],
        10: a[3:6 , 0:3 , 3:6],
        11: a[3:6 , 0:3 , 6:9],
        12: a[3:6 , 3:6 , 0:3],
        13: a[3:6 , 3:6 , 3:6],
        14: a[3:6 , 3:6 , 6:9],
        15: a[3:6 , 6:9 , 0:3],
        16: a[3:6 , 6:9 , 3:6],
        17: a[3:6 , 6:9 , 6:9],
        18: a[6:9 , 0:3 , 0:3],
        19: a[6:9 , 0:3 , 3:6],
        20: a[6:9 , 0:3 , 6:9],
        21: a[6:9 , 3:6 , 0:3],
        22: a[6:9 , 3:6 , 3:6],
        23: a[6:9 , 3:6 , 6:9],
        24: a[6:9 , 6:9 , 0:3],
        25: a[6:9 , 6:9 , 3:6],
        26: a[6:9 , 6:9 , 6:9]
    }
    return soluciones.get(bloque, None)

print(sliceBlock(a, 1))
[[[  3   4   5]
  [ 12  13  14]
  [ 21  22  23]]

 [[ 84  85  86]
  [ 93  94  95]
  [102 103 104]]

 [[165 166 167]
  [174 175 176]
  [183 184 185]]]

La única critica que tengo para esta solución es que no es generalizable a arrays de múltiples dimensiones.
