Java Inventor: 'Google Totally Slimed Sun' (ORCL, GOOG)
Matt Rosoff, provided by
Published 4:00 am PDT, Monday, April 30, 2012
Java creator James Gosling thinks that Google "totally slimed" Sun by using big parts of Java without paying a license, and says that he agrees with Oracle in the lawsuit between the companies.
That may be a bit surprising, because Gosling quit his job at Sun shortly after Oracle bought the company, and has been critical of Oracle in some blog posts since then. Then, last March, Gosling took a job at Google. He's since quit that job to work for a startup.
Gosling is widely considered the father of Java, as he invented the first version of the Java language and other pieces of the platform back in 1994.
On Saturday, Gosling wrote a brief blog post clarifying his position on the Oracle-Google case after a news article got it wrong.
As he put it:
Just because Sun didn't have patent suits in our genetic code doesn't mean we didn't feel wronged. While I have differences with Oracle, in this case they are in the right. Google totally slimed Sun. We were all really disturbed, even [then-CEO] Jonathan [Schwartz]: he just decided to put on a happy face and tried to turn lemons into lemonade, which annoyed a lot of folks at Sun.
Google called Schwartz as a witness last week, where he testified that Sun thought that Google's use of the Java APIs was OK, as long as Google didn't use the Java brand or trademark. Even so, Schwartz said that Sun wasn't happy with how Google got around Sun's licensing restrictions.
Schwartz's predecessor, Scott McNealy, testified for Oracle.

Visit Viking Ships and a Gothic Cathedral in Roskilde near Copenhagen
May 3, 2019 by Henk Bekker in Churches, Day Trips, Museums & Galleries, Roskilde, Top Must-See Sights
Roskilde is a popular day trip destination from Copenhagen to see historic Viking ships and the most-impressive Gothic cathedral in Denmark.
Roskilde Viking Ships Museum
The best sights in Roskilde to visit on a day trip from Copenhagen are the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage listed Roskilde Cathedral and the Viking Ship Museum. Transportation from Copenhagen to Roskilde is easy by car, train or on day-trip excursion tours and is easily combined with other popular sights such as Frederiksborg Castle and Helsingør with Hamlet's Kronborg Castle. Roskilde is a great family-friendly destination with free admission for under 18-year olds to the top sights and many opportunities for fun activities for children. Transportation from Copenhagen and admission tickets are mostly covered by the Copenhagen Card.
The Viking Ship Museum in Roskilde
The Viking Ship Museum (Vikingeskibs Museet) in Roskilde is one of the most-popular museums with foreign tourists in Denmark. The main exhibition here is the remains of five Viking ships that were discovered in the 1960s in Roskilde Fjord. These historic ships are beautifully presented in a modern light-filled hall with panoramic windows facing the fjord.
A further very interesting part of the museum complex is a ship building boatyard and a collection of reconstructed ships. Here visitors may not only see what the original boats looked like, but sometimes may even sail on these Viking ships. The boatyard also has many activities where visitors of all ages may try various boat-building activities and see how Viking boats are constructed using traditional techniques and tools.

The UNESCO-Listed Roskilde Cathedral
Roskilde Domkirke
Roskilde Cathedral (Domkirke) is the greatest church in Denmark and arguably all of Scandinavia. This twelfth-century building was the first brick Gothic church in Scandinavia and the inspiration for hundreds that followed.
Roskilde Cathedral is the traditional mausoleum of the Danish royal family and has the graves of 39 kings and queens. For a Danish Lutheran church, the cathedral is filled with art in quantity and quality unrivalled by any other church in Denmark.
Admission is charged but visitors receive a comprehensive full-color brochure and may explore almost all parts of the church including upper levels with wonderful views down into the nave.
Other Sights in Roskilde
Roskilde Harbour
Roskilde has a pleasant old town but the cathedral and the Viking ships are far and away the most interesting sights – don't rush through a visit here just to fit other lesser sights into a busy schedule. Other sights in Roskilde include:
The Museum of Contemporary Art (Museet for Samtidskunst) exhibits modern art by local and international artists.
The Roskilde Museum is the local history museum but claims to have the largest collection in Denmark of objects and art from the Middle Ages – a period during which Roskilde was one of the most important cities in Scandinavia.
The Gothic St Laurence's Church Ruins and Tower (Skt Laurentii Kirkeruin & Tårn) are incorporated into the neo-Gothic town hall from the late 19th century.
The Danish Rock Museum opened in 2016 near the site of the Roskilde Festival, one of Europe's largest open-air rock festivals held every year in early July.
The small Lejre Museum a few kilometer outside Roskilde is included in some tours from Copenhagen.
Transportation to Roskilde from Copenhagen
Roskilde is to the west of Copenhagen and is easily reached in half an hour by car, public transportation or group tour.
It is a simple 30 km drive from Copenhagen to Roskilde. Once outside Copenhagen, follow highway 21 to Roskilde. Free parking is available at the Viking Ship Museum but mostly charged for in the old town area.
Getting to Roskilde by train from Copenhagen is even faster. Frequent trains – up to nine per hour – connect Copenhagen Main Station (København H) and Roskilde station in just over 20 minutes. From the station, it is a ten-minute walk to Roskilde Cathedral and a further ten minutes via a pleasant park to the Viking Ships Museum. Alternatively, use bus 203 from the station to the ship museum (stop Vikingeskibsmuseet) – the bus fare is usually already covered by the train ticket.
Transportation is included in the Copenhagen Card and admission tickets mostly too – the Viking Ships Museum sometimes only gives 25% discount.
It is possible to travel from Roskilde to Hillerød (Frederiksborg Slot Castle) by direct bus (or by train via Copenhagen) in around an hour and a half. Sightseeing tours, e.g. Get Your Guide, sometimes combine Roskilde, Frederiksborg and Helsingør (Hamlet's Castle) in a busy single day-trip tour.

In Pro Evolution Soccer 2012, you can effectively and efficiently carry out offensive maneuvers, since the new AI allows your team to act as a single body: the players will try to take a comfortable position for the pass, to isolate the goalkeeper from defending his players and so on.
On the other hand, the enemy is now much better educated protected, so overcome that his defense can be not so easy.
Right analog stick is now responsible for the rapid switching between players that can quickly respond to the changing situation on the field. The possibility of control of the player without the ball significantly increased tactical depth and variety of techniques.
It's simple – collisions are more realistic than ever, and the player is in charge of all football activities at this time.

It can be unnerving to watch the wild swings we have seen in the markets over the past few weeks, especially if you are planning to retire in the next 3-5 years. None of us want to experience what potential retirees endured from 2007-2009. The sad reality was that those people had to radically change their retirement plans and many continued to work simply because they no longer had the assets needed for retirement.
The question is: what should you be doing to protect yourself from volatility?
The first step is to admit that you might have a problem.
If you are watching the markets on a daily basis and are experiencing any level of anxiety over what you're seeing, then you have a problem. It's possible that your portfolio is built for growth and may not reflect what your true risk tolerance is at this point in time.
The second step is to do something about it.
The major indices have not hit a full correction yet. Take this volatility as a warning sign that the markets do not always cooperate the way we want, when we want. Making a change to your portfolio is scary, because change is not easy. However, not taking action can only perpetuate your problem. Take a proactive step to add some protections to your portfolio that may not currently exist. It's not too late to make an adjustment.
Let the professionals do the work.
The portfolio managers we use proactively moved to more defensive positions needed to withstand volatility months ago. If you are self managing, would you even know what a more defensive position would be? Professional managers are knee deep in the markets all day long, and it some cases they are in it 24/7. The portfolio managers we use at Montini & Co, are some of the best in the country with a vast knowledge of all things related to the markets. Additionally, a professional portfolio manager is a fiduciary who is legally obligated to operate in your best interest. Wouldn't you want someone like that to be in control of your assets?
Montini & Co can help. We have the tools to perform a complete analysis of your existing portfolio and help identify where problems may exist. We can bring solutions that can mitigate risk during these volatile times. We will construct a sustainable income plan you can rely on. We will complete a tax plan and help you work towards getting to the point of zero tax in the future. None of this is easy, but it needs to be done, and Montini & Co can help. Click here to schedule an appointment.
Let's face it, retirement is a lot more fun when you can do it with friends. You may be reading this as an existing client with Montini & Co, or you may only know us for the classes we teach and the low cost tax returns we offer. Regardless, if you are losing sleep, it's possible your friends are too. Let us help put you and your friends at ease.
Finally, real wealth is not necessarily made in the upswings in the markets. Real wealth is made in not taking a tremendous loss once the markets move from correction to recession.
Written by Marc Montini. IAR, and Owner of Montini & Co Tax Advisory Group in Phoenix, AZ.

Gimme Your Answers: An Interview w/ MAGIC!
When it comes to keeping warm during our Canadian winters, sometimes a large mug of steaming hot chocolate just doesn't do the trick. Luckily, the world has MAGIC! – a Toronto quartet now based in Los Angeles – who are bringing their warm reggae-infused Caribbean vibes to our ears (and hearts). With the recent Australian Gold certification of their single Rude and an upcoming show in Toronto next week on the 18th, it was the perfect time to ask the band some questions.
Ahead of the show, I spoke with MAGIC! frontman, singer, songwriter, and Grammy Award winning producer Nasri Atweh. If you want to know about their forthcoming album, his favourite collaborations, memorable tour moments, and what's next for the band, dive into our conversion:
AMBY: Congratulations on recent Gold certification of your single Rude!
Nasri Atweh: Thank you, thank you! It's a pretty awesome achievement.
AMBY: It's my pleasure. I've read how the debut "will help you slip away to a Caribbean Island", and feel that statement is pretty accurate. As far as songwriting goes on the song, what were your inspirations to give Rude that warm and laid-back feeling?
Nasri Atweh: I think taking the approach as a band to have a little reggae influence in most of our music; it was just natural that one of the songs would get a little more reggae. Some of the songs are more rock, some more soul, but this one went a little more Caribbean and island-y.
AMBY: With the single out since October of last year, what's next as far as recording goes?
Nasri Atweh: The album is finished; we're mixing it and that will be done in about a week. Then the album will come out in April.
AMBY: That's pretty exciting. What can fans expect to hear from the record?
Nasri Atweh: Catchy songs, some really heartfelt stuff, a lot of reggae and rock flavours, and lot of really cool vocal harmonies. Hopefully, what I think are some really cool concepts.
AMBY: We have a release month and know what to expect, but is there a working title yet?
Nasri Atweh: We don't know. There's four guys in the band and we all have to pitch in [laughs]. Every day I fight for mine, I honestly think of the most ridiculous ones.
AMBY: What are some that you've thrown out there for the band?
Nasri Atweh: One of them was Made by Humans, For Humans. I don't know, I just get the weirdest titles! What was the other one I came up with? Mark came up with one that was funny. It was kind of wrong, but he called it Fallopian Falcon.
AMBY: [laughs]
Nasri Atweh: We're all kind of silly and coming up with these weird titles. Our drummer Alex seriously wants to come up with it, and we just like messing with him [laughs]. I don't know. From my standpoint, it could be one of the song names. I think once the mix is done and we sit and listen to it as a group, we'll think of a few usable names. Every day there's new titles.
AMBY: Well, I look forward to hearing the final album and seeing what you finally come up with after the debate [laughs]. You're soon playing shows in Toronto and Montreal. What have been some of the more memorable moments you've had while on tour?
Nasri Atweh: We were on tour with Modest Magic in September. There was this bridge that we had to drive over which was over water, and it was twenty-six miles long.
AMBY: Woah.
Nasri Atweh: It was freaky! And the shows were great; it's always fun because we're playing songs that nobody's ever heard, and this was before Rude was on the radio so nobody knew anything. We would go out to these shows bringing our sound to everybody. It was great to see that out of the two or three hundred people every night, we'd get twenty people following us on the social networks. There was one night that was awesome! I like to move on stage and I always have a mic with a chord, but we were in Orlando at the Hard Rock Cafe… They had this amazing cordless mic that was really expensive. I just went crazy.
Nasri Atweh: They wouldn't actually let us take footage there. It was this amazing show…
AMBY: You were finally free and they wouldn't let you tape it! What a shame.
Nasri Atweh: I know. Last time we were in Toronto was great because we played for all of our friends and family. Next week we play at The Mod Club which we hope to make our most memorable show. Now we're going to have a bunch of our friends and family there, and hopefully lots of new MAGIC! fans because we've been on the radio.
AMBY: We're actually running a giveaway for that show on the site.
Nasri Atweh: [laughs]
AMBY: There have been a lot of entries, so I can assure you that people look forward to the show!
Nasri Atweh: Good, good. We can't wait.
AMBY: Aside from MAGIC!, you're also a Grammy award-winning producer and songwriter. Being that, you've had the opportunity of working with some extremely talented artists. What's one of the fondest moments you've had while working with an artist or musician?
Nasri Atweh: A lot of my fondest memories aren't always on the music-side. A lot of the time it's the conversations I have with the artists, you know? Just to get one-on-one with these stars who are living these crazy lives… When you look into the eyes of a young star who everyone wants and you have a really normal conversation with them… I'll tell you an example. Justin Bieber and I played excessive ping-pong and we would play for hours during our sessions. That was really the bonding stuff I liked. I really enjoyed the one-on-one friendships with the artists.
AMBY: Aside from music, what are some of your hobbies?
Nasri Atweh: I could go through the band's. I'd say Mark's hobby as a guitar player is literally playing the guitar. If he had a guitar in front of him, he would just play the guitar all day, and eat! He's like a vacuum cleaner with food, he eats up everything. Ben, our bass player, his hobby is definitely watching old footage online of all of the old bands and his favourite artists. Alex and I are kind of activity junkies. Alex is definitely a basketball freak; he does a lot of basketball. My hobby lately is mixed martial arts. Other than that, music is really a hobby for all of us. We all love playing music.
AMBY: Lastly, what's something about MAGIC! that most people don't know?
Nasri Atweh: We can play a lot of instruments.
Thank you MAGIC!, for giving us your answers.

L-r: Paul Andrews, Tom Elliott and Howard Hackney of Howard Hackney LLP.
Elliotts named top family business of the year
It's been handed down from generation to generation for 173 years and now Elliotts has been named the best family business in the UK's property and construction industry.
The independent supplier of building products for the trade and public claimed the title of Property and Construction Family Business of the Year at the Family Business United awards in London, which was held on 11 June.
Elliotts, headquartered in Southampton, was founded in 1842 by Thomas Elliott who saw the opportunities for building driven by the development of the city's port facilities. The business has grown dramatically over the years and now has 13 branches and over 280 staff. It is run by Tom Elliott, the sixth generation of Elliotts to take the helm of the business. His father, Stuart Mason Elliott, remains active in the company as chairman.
Tom Elliott said: "Being a family business is a big part of our identity and we're delighted to have won this award. Our customers tell us the fact we're a family business is a real strength because it means we can react with much greater speed and agility than our competitors."
Paul Andrews, founder of Family Business United and organiser of the awards, recently visited Elliotts to see operations in action at its builders' merchant branch in Southampton. He said: "Family businesses make a huge contribution to the UK economy, both in terms of the revenue they generate and the people they employ. These awards are all about celebrating the UK's family businesses, of which Elliotts is a shining example."

Check my car
Every single customer is important to us.
The diesel campaign is about much more than just engines. It is about every single customer. That's why we have so far successfully updated over six hundred thousand ŠKODA cars worldwide.
But we did not stop there. We have continued to develop, test and check. All of our technical measures have been approved by the Vehicle Certification Agency, United Kingdom after rigorous testing. This means we can implement the technical measure in each and every affected ŠKODA diesel engine.
For the majority of affected engine variants, the technical measure consists of a software update that incorporates the latest findings from ongoing development of the diesel combustion process in recent years by making changes such as an improved injection pattern. The pure labour time for this measure will be around half an hour.
Only for the 1.6-liter engines is it also necessary to fit what is called a flow transformer. The time needed for the implementation of the technical measures is less than one hour.
Loading thumbnail resulted in failure
The relevant regulatory authorities have confirmed that application of the technical measures does not adversely affect fuel consumption figures, CO2 emissions figures, engine power, maximum torque or noise emissions. In addition to the intensive work done to confirm the measures within the Volkswagen Group, the authorities have also performed extensive independent tests, in some cases with the aid of external engineering service providers.
Affected customers can be sure that the technical measures will be successfully implemented. All figures relevant to vehicle type approval remain valid. This was a key precondition for approval of the technical measures by the authorities.
In many countries, every customer to have the technical measure performed on their vehicle will receive written confirmation to that effect after visiting the service centre.
All ŠKODA customers with vehicles, for which the technical measure has been approved, have already been invited to take part at the technical measure. If you wish to verify immediately, whether your particular vehicle is affected by the technical measure, please use our 'VIN checker' tool accessible under the following link.
Should the 'VIN checker' tool confirm that your vehicle is affected by the technical measure, we would like to ask you to contact an authorized ŠKODA Partner and arrange an appointment as soon as possible.
The measure will take between 30 minutes and 1 hour depending on the scope of work and is naturally free of charge for you. We would like you to understand that the action may last slightly longer due to organizational reasons resulting from the operational processes. To avoid any inconveniences, ŠKODA will, if needed, provide you with adequate alternative mobility tailored to your needs for free for the implementation time of the measure.
You may also use any of the following options to get in touch with ŠKODA:

We thank you for your patience and loyalty towards our brand.

ARTE 2301 The Graphic Novel
CRN 18074
Professor Hillary Chute, author of the book "Why Comics?"
The medium of comics now seizes the public imagination like never before. The course tracks the history of the graphic novel, with an emphasis on contemporary work. How to read and interpret comics—and what this storytelling form teaches us about reading and looking. The word-and-image medium of comics as a narrative form. How to read comics—and what they teach us about reading—in addition to the creative practices that go into making them.
We will examine antecedents including "engraved novels," newspaper comic strips, "wordless novels," underground comic books, and punk fanzines to understand the graphic novel's rise in the 1970s in addition to exploring current directions. Authors include Art Spiegelman, Alison Bechdel, Chris Ware, Joe Sacco, Lynda Barry, Gary Panter, Phoebe Gloeckner, Keiji Nakazawa, and Marjane Satrapi, among others. Will include visits from artists to discuss the craft of this verbal-visual form. No pre-requisites – open to all!

Does a building lose its airtightness over time?
Roderic Bunn presents the results of an airtightness test of the Elizabeth Fry Building, 14 years on.
Does a building lose its airtightness over time? Logic would suggest that it would, as seals deteriorate and differential movement and shrinkage create new air gaps in the fabric. Buildings age, and arguably they should be forgiven if they can't hold their breath as well as they used to.
In any case, is such degradation really that significant? There will always be other reasons for a building's energy consumption to gradually increase. Partial changes of use, ageing building services, and more electrical equipment such as laptops and vending machines all play their part in a gradual reduction in efficiency. It reaches a point where decline in a building's systems can only be arrested by a significant retrofit.
The rear south-facing elevation. The compriband seals to the metal profiled cills were found to have perished, creating a new air leakage path. The lobby in the background gives access to the air handling plant room and lecture theatre doors.To test whether the building's exemplary airtightness has stood the test of time, BSRIA was invited by the University of East Anglia (UEA) and builder Willmott Dixon to conduct an airtightness test nearly 14 years after that carried out for the PROBE series of building revisits.
Elizabeth Fry is a four-storey rectangular building of gross internal area 3250 m2 and a treated floor area of 3130 m2. Its principal elevations face almost north onto a main campus road, and south onto a courtyard car park.
Back in 1994, way before airtightness testing was mandated in Part L of the Building Regulations, the building's architects John Miller + Partners and services engineers Fulcrum Consulting set out to optimise thermal insulation and minimise air leakage. The walls were insulated with 200 mm mineral fibre cavity fill, and fitted with tripleglazed, aluminium-clad timber windows with mid-pane blinds. The roof had 300 mm of insulation.
With a design heat loss of only 15 W/m2, two 24 kW domestic wall-hung condensing boilers provided all the heat required, with a third in reserve. Heating and cooling is entirely through the mechanical ventilation system and openable windows. Four air-handling units incorporate heat recovery. Two cross-flow units serve the lecture rooms, while more efficient flow-reversing regenerators were used for the offices and seminar rooms.
Following initial monitoring, six 200 W electric heaters were added in six rooms with exposed floors, corners or roofs.
Even by 2012 standards the building's air leakage index was impressive: the post-completion pressure test came in at 4.2 m3/(h.m2) at 50 Pa. BSRIA's re-test for the PROBE analysis in early 1998 reported a slight deterioration in performance of 6.53 m3/(h.m2). This reduction was attributed to air leakage at the stairwell roof at both ends of the building, an access hatch to the roof, and leakage around windows and door thresholds. Nevertheless, the result still compared extremely well with airtightness standards of the time.
BSRIA's Tom Jones delivers pressure test results of the Elizabeth Fry Building to Dr Bill Bordass of the Usable Buildings Trust and Martyn Newton of the University of East AngliaThe UEA is leading a European Project, Build with CaRe, to help build capacity to produce low-energy buildings. While the team was exploring the history of Elizabeth Fry and subsequent Termodeck buildings on the UEA campus, it was decided that BSRIA would carry out a third pressure test to find out whether the building had become less airtight over time. This was performed on 18 September 2011, nearly 14 years after the PROBE test.
The test results need to be considered in the context of the building's current use. Since 1998, the uses of some internal areas have changed. The staff and student common rooms on the first and second floors have been converted to offices and seminar rooms. In 2008, the kitchen and dining area on the top floor was converted into a densely-occupied, open plan, post-graduate administrative office. As a consequence the kitchen plant was removed and the extract sealed off.
In summer 2011 the ground floor seminar rooms and their blockwork walls were stripped out to provide an administration centre serving a large number of faculties.
Much to everyone's surprise, the 2011 test revealed the Elizabeth Fry Building to be more airtight than it was in 1998, achieving 5.32 m3/(h.m2) at 50 Pa.
The degradation of door and window seals, plus the deterioration of mastic seals between window frames and the blockwork, might reasonably have led to a higher air leakage rate. But little air leakage was detected. The mastic compriband seals between the cills and the blockwork had fallen apart and this had led to detectable air leakage.
BSRIA believes that the removal of the rooftop kitchen extract plant will have cut out a significant source of leakage. There is also a suspicion that ground floor lecture room ventilation plant may also not have been sealed off in 1998 as effectively as it was in 2011. In 1998, the temporary sealing of the air handling plant relied on the dampers, whereas in 2011 it was sealed with polythene and tape.
The accuracy of the airtightness of the building may be affected by some uncertainty in the envelope area calculations, as these are dependant on the accuracy of the drawings supplied.
and of course changes in the building's use.
The other question is whether Elizabeth Fry's exemplary energy efficiency has continued. Sadly, the building's halo has slipped a little.
Annual energy use in 1997 was 61 kWh/m2 for electricity, 33 kWh/m2 for gas and 4.2 kWh/m2 for domestic hot water. In 2008, electricity consumption rose to 72 kWh/m2, but data after that are unreliable owing to metering faults. Gas consumption has risen to 35 kWh/m2, plus 11 kWh/m2 for domestic hot water that now runs permanently at 55°C (65°C on Sundays). Much of the consumption is thought to be due to standing losses, and some uninsulated pipework.
Lighting and office equipment energy use have gone up owing to the increased occupancy levels. Room occupancy has also increased and the staff and student common rooms on the first and second floors have been turned into offices and seminar rooms. In 1997, the building contained 70 office workstations. In 2010, there were 120.

My aunty lives overseas and came to stay with us for 2 weeks in October, 2017. It's been 2 years since we last saw her, so it was fabulous to catch up again. We did heaps of fun things, and of course there was always a little bit of madness interjected in there as well, just to add to the fun memories.
These are some of the things we did, as well as funny photos I took with photo booth on the iPad. She'd never seen anything like all the funky functions on a tablet, so Mum and I decided to show her some of the funny settings.
On the Saturday which was the AFL grand final day we went off to the gardens. Last time we were all there was about 5 years or so, so it was great to go out again and see what the gardens looked like. Click on the button below to see the blog and photos of the gardens. We had a fabulous day once the rain cleared up.
We went to see the fantastic movie VICTORIA AND ABDUL.
This is magnificent and so worth seeing, if you can. If not here are some photos to look at to give you an idea of how amazing the clothes and accessories are. The NGV always does an incredible job of displaying all their exhibitions. The first photo is of an installation in the open area before you go into the exhibition, that is actually placed on the ground in huge pieces, like a giant puzzle, to for the pattern shown. It is by Michael Lin.
My Aunt has never seen nor eaten at a sushi train. Luckily I found one where I can get into with the wheelchair so off we went. We spent this wonderful day together in the city running around eating, shopping, laughing and more eating.

David Chase at the Emmys
By Joanne Ostrow
Television Critic
That shy, press-averse David Chase of "The Sopranos" managed the night's most political statement: accepting the award for best drama series, he riffed about gangsters being people, too.
"In essence, this is a story about a gangster. And gangsters are out there taking their kids to college, and taking their kids to school, and putting food on their table. And, hell, let's face it, if the world and this nation was run by gangsters –(beat)— maybe it is."

David Chase on that pesky finale
Picking up two honors at the Television Critics Association awards show last night, "Sopranos" creator David Chase dropped two obscure hints: receiving the award for outstanding drama, he said, "Here's another clue for you all, the Walrus was Paulie"–a play on the Beatles' "Glass Onion" game-playing on the White Album.
Then, back onstage for the Heritage award (where "The Sopranos" beat out "Sesame Street" among others), Chase told the audience, "when I saw the 'Planet of the Apes' ending, I told my wife, 'so, they had a Statue of Liberty, too!' So that's what you're up against."
You could take that to mean, he didn't get the ending then, so why should you get his ending now? I prefer to think he means the ending was obvious, it was all right there: Tony is dead.

'Sopranos' finale: some things never change
We are conditioned by television to expect some kind of resolution, but David Chase took a more literate route. He deprived us a neat ending, prompting us to talk about the dynamics for days/weeks to come.
Tonight's "Sopranos" finale was more life-like than movie-like. No hail of bullets, no tying up of loose ends. The Soprano family could be shot down today, tomorrow or in a year. We don't know. For now, they delight in onion rings and, as AJ quoted Tony, "focus on the good times."
It all came down to psychodynamics: "You see, I never could please my mother," Tony said. Carmela's face registered the response most of America would have: 'you gotta be kiddin'.
Ultimately, who was better off? Junior, senile in a wheelchair, or Tony, now and forever looking over his shoulder–perhaps to be off'd by the guy in the bathroom? "It's not like we haven't envisioned this day," Tony's lawyer said.
We envisioned it many ways, but Chase still managed to surprise us.
'John from Cincinnati' on HBO
There's the glimmer of a cool idea there, but three hours in to the series, I have no idea what it is.
"John fromn Cincinnati," the HBO series debuting immediately following Sunday's "Sopranos" finale, is supposed to combine philosophy, quantum physics and a guy who may be an alien with a family of noted surfers in one hip package from David Milch ("Deadwood"). But you wouldn't know that without reading the press material. One guy levitates, another repeats what he hears, and a kid makes a miraculous recovery from a surfing accident. "John" may be the worst use of a lead-in, and HBO's biggest creative dud in years.
As if we needed more reason to miss David Chase on Sunday nights after this week.

A 'Sopranos' theory
Is America ready for the first female mob boss?
As the tension builds toward the May 20 finale of David Chase's delectable drama, Tony's self-destructive behavior continues. The guessing game regarding his fate is only that, but one character is showing newfound signs of leadership. She's building houses (one even passed inspection although it skirted the legal code). Carmela's laying a foundation. She's not above taking a wad of bills from her husband's stash and she's quite aware how the family business works. "Is this it?" she asked at the start of this season, awaiting the FBI's knock. Almost. She's smarter than the goons hanging at the Bada Bing and she commands loyalty. A new boss for a new era? Just a theory.

Q: Finding the p.d.f. of T=XY using the C.D.F. Technique (Functions of Random Variable) Suppose X and Y are continuous r.v. with join p.d.f. $$f(x,y)=3y, 0 \le x \le y \le 1$$
Find the p.d.f. of $T=xy$
So I know that we can consider for $ t < 0, P(T \le t)=0$ and if $t \ge 1, P(T \le t)=1$ Therefore we consider $t \in (0,1)$. But I don't know how to set up the limits of integration. Please help!

A: Note that the joint density of $X$ and $Y$ "lives" in the triangle with corners $(0,0)$, $(1,1)$, and $(0,1)$. Draw that triangle, and for some fixed $t$ between $0$ and $1$, draw the first quadrant part of the hyperbola $xy=t$. It is essential that the picture be drawn if the rest of the post is to be understood.
Then $\Pr(X\le t)$ is the probability that $(X,Y)$ lands in the part of the triangle that is below the hyperbola. Call that region $K$.
If we take a look at $K$, we notice that whatever we integrate with respect to first, we will have to split the region of integration.
Note that the hyperbola meets the top line $y=1$ of the triangle at $x=t$. Draw the line $x=t$, and let $A$ be the part of $K$ to the left of $x=t$, and $B$ the part of $K$ to the right of $x=t$. We want
$$\iint_A 3y\,dy\,dc+\iint_B 3y\,dy\,dx.$$
Now express each of the two integrals above as iterated integrals.
For the first, $y$ goes from $x$ to $1$, and then $x$ goes from $0$ to $t$. We get
$$\int_{x=0}^t \left(\int_{y=x}^1 3y\,dy\right)\,dx.$$
For the second integral, $y$ goes from $x$ to $t/x$, and then $x$ goes from $t$ to $\sqrt{t}$. The $\sqrt{t}$ is because the line $y=x$ of our diagram meets the hyperbola at $x=y=\sqrt{t}$.
Remark: There is a nicer way. Look at the part of the triangle that is above the hyperbola. Integrate over that. That gives the probability that $XY\gt t$, from which we can easily find $\Pr(XY\le t)$.
If we do things right, we don't have to break up the integral. Integrate first with respect to $x$. The picture tells us that $x$ goes from $t/y$ to $y$. And then $y$ goes from $\sqrt{t}$ to $1$.
As a small bonus, the integration is marginally easier. An antiderivative is $3xy$, so the inner integral is $3y^2-3t$. Now it remains to find
$\int_{\sqrt{t}}^1 (3y^2-3t)\,dy$.

In association with the Kerala Forest Department, a trekking camp on the Western Ghats, was organised, for the members of Scouts and Guides, by Bhavan's S. Ramakrishnan Memorial Public School, Akamala. The expedition provided a unique opportunity to gather information about the abundant flora and fauna in this region.
The vigour and strength of the students proved its maximum in exploring the wild. Students presented a skit on the importance of preserving wildlife and the forest department organised a quiz programme for them. Flashcards, slogans, songs and information from the forest guards made the event more interesting. Students were imparted information about forest conservation and prevention of forest fire.
One day trekking - "Back to Nature" concluded with the message "Trigger our joys and excitement by letting the soul dance to the sound of Nature".


The regional park of the Suckler Mountains covers an area of about 160 sq km and embraces the entire Sorrento-Amalfi peninsula with its highest peaks of Sant'Angelo with three laces and Monte Faito.
The area is physically bounded by the Sea of the Gulf of Salerno, the plan nocerium-Sarnese and the Sea of the Gulf of Naples and includes some of the most suggestive tourist destinations of the region, such as Positano, Amalfi and Ravello.
Its territory is rich in tourist-patrimonial emergencies and scattered with very important historical centres, witnesses of a strongly rooted presence of man, but also of environmental peculiarities that are expressed in an intimate union between two elements Apparently in contradiction: the Mountain and the sea. A union that intimately strikes and fascinates millions of tourists and travellers.
The regional park of the milking mountains is absolutely peculiar, so particularly nestled between mountains and sea to represent, in its marvellous multiplicity, a unique of rare beauty.
The regional park of the Monti Latti offers one of the widest excursion rangers of the Apennines. Its dense network of trails allows you to fully experience the coexistence between mountain and sea, which in this territory is narrow like nowhere else. Most of the reliefs have acclivi slopes that often precipitate into real walls. The paths always run in panoramic contexts of great charm. The morphology of the peninsula means that many of the possible walks on these itineraries allow you to embrace the two seas with your gaze.
Here are suggested four itineraries, chosen from among many for beauty and accessibility. From the mountain to the sea you can discover the wonders of the park: the Path of the gods, the Punta Campanella with the Bay of Ieranto, the paths of Mount Faito and the Molare, finally the long promenade that explores the valley of the ironworks and the Valle Dei Mulini. The ideal season to get on the road is spring, when trees and shrubs are in bloom and the air smells like broom.
But also the autumn gives beautiful emotions, with the red vineyards and the air clear that allows you to push away the look. The paths of the park are also suitable for winter walks, especially in the serene days.

Welcome to 'Blue Monday', supposedly the most miserable day of the year, due to hit us all on the 26th January. It must be true, it's mathematical.
Get festive the fiery way!
Billowing flames light the night sky, sparks and embers drift on the cold winter wind, and everywhere people laugh and roar, dance and sing, drink and make merry.
Yes, it's time to get busy with your log splitter because it's winter fire festival season.
But what fiery treats are on offer?
Is your pocket feeling the strain? New generation smartphones cost a pretty penny, but we're not talking about the cost of upgrading your phone.
Apple's new iPhone 6 Plus is over 6" long by 3" wide, Samsung's Galaxy S5 measures approximately 5.5" x 3", LG's G3 has a 5.5" display. Time was when smaller was better, but the sheer size of the latest offerings from the communications giants makes for a lot of computer to cram into your pocket of a standard pair of mens trousers.
Forget exercise, the new watchword is 'movement', and the best 'movement' of all? Walking.
Experts now say there's evidence to suggest that even if you work out, that hour of training four or five times a week still isn't enough to undo the damage caused by an otherwise sedentary lifestyle. But if you walk a lot, you're doing yourself good with every step. That's because putting one foot in front of the other helps the body's systems work at their most efficient, keeping you fit and healthy for longer.
And now your phone can help get you moving. Motivating, guiding and providing information on the move, walking apps make the whole business of exploring on foot just that little bit easier. Here to help you make the most of a decent pair of mens shoes, our guide to the best walking apps.

From white truffle dishes to Halloween specials, these are our top picks this month!
There are lots of reasons to celebrate and eat out this month – from spook-fest Halloween menus to old favourites celebrating their anniversaries, as well as the beginning of the white truffle season. With the Rugby World Cup currently underway in Japan, Japanese seems to be the flavour of the season, with its fabulous cuisine finding many takers. Rest assured, there's also plenty of Italian, Australian, French, Indonesian and Indian food being served up too!

Micasadeco & Café
Coming in hot from the home of the soufflé pancake, Osaka favourite (also in Tokyo and Kyoto), Micasadeco & Café has landed in the city at Langham Place, its first outlet outside Japan. On the menu? You guessed it, pancakes! Kids and adults alike will love the award-winning Ricotta Cheese (the restaurant's signature – pictured here), while the Matcha and Black Sesame options are a tasty nod to traditional Japanese flavours. Don't leave without trying the range of savoury bites too, which include a number of pastas, salads and sandwiches that are sure to impress even the fussiest of little diners.

Offering delicious and unique Indian food served creatively in dim sum proportions, Gunpowder is the latest restaurant from the Mayfare Group. Boasting quick service and a convenient location just off Ship Street in Wan Chai, Gunpowder is already seeing a steady stream of weekday lunchtime visitors. We recommend starting the kids with the restaurant's signature Gunpowder Chicken (the gunpowder is a chilli mix powder that you can adjust to suit spice levels), in addition to the light and tangy Mango Avocado Bhel. Choose to sit inside in the cosier part of the restaurant that seats up to 12. The restaurant will launch its weekend brunch menu later this month.

La Petite Maison
The season is changing and so are the dishes at La Petite Maison. It recently introduced a selection of warming dishes, like the Poulet La Petite Maison ($1198), a roast black leg chicken with foie gras stuffing and served with a home-made baguette; and the Pumpkin Risotto with Mushroom, Sage and Pecorino Cheese ($198). This Niçoise food restaurant is still relatively new to Hong Kong and is getting ready to celebrate its first anniversary soon. It is perfect for weekend family dining with dishes served "à la minute" and made for sharing. October is white truffle season and the ingredient will be available at the restaurant from the middle of October (until it runs out), so do ask about the specials on offer!

Available every day until Friday, 11 October from 12pm to 2:30pm, Mario's Cult Classics menu includes favourites like the Spicy Rigatoni Vodka and Chicken Parmesan.

Opt for the gnocchi timbale on a Portobello mushroom, or home-made egg tagliatelle, though your children will probably be more interested in the chestnut chocolate chips inside white chocolate bavaroise (all topped and enriched with white truffles).

We've always been fans of the hearty Australian brunch fare of Catch at Kennedy Town. Now, it's giving us more reason to plan our next weekend outing there (as if the smashed avo wasn't enough cause to visit!). Catch is starting to do crossovers with its brunch menus with the other restaurants in its group. For instance, this month Catch will be featuring a couple of dishes from Elementary's brunch menu. Now you don't need to trek over to Tai Hang to try the Feathered Eggs (duck ragu, sunny side up eggs, grana padano, flatbread) or the Peachy Pannacotta (granola, berry yoghurt, passionfruit, honeycomb, seasonal fruit – pictured above). It doesn't take brunch reservations on weekends and public holidays, so get there early!

Q: iphone - overlay transparent image on movieplayer I've been able to successfully overlay an image on top of the movieplayer (see the MoviePlayer example from Apple).
However, I would like the effect of having no controls on the screen, and when the screen is touched, my overlay appears.
My thought was to create an overlay with an image that is a transparent png file, and cover the entire display. When this transparent image is touched, the overlay control will appear.
All is working, with the exception of showing a transparent image over the movieplayer. Even with a transparent png, the image shows as all black. If I change the alpha for the UIView (overlay) the touch events are not recognized.
I'm obviously new to working directly with drawrect() so any insight would be appreciated.

A: There isn't really need to use drawRect. You can set your view up in IB if you wanted.
Your problem is finding the Movie Player View. You can try 2 things.
First try to add your view as a subview of the UIWindow instance of the app:
[window addSubview:myCustomTransparentTouchView];

See if it works.
If not, try looping through the subviews of the UIWindow instance:
for(UIView* aView in [window subviews]){

    NSLog([[aView class] description]);

}

And see if I see something like MPPlalerView or whatever it may be called.
Then, try adding whatever view you want as a subview of that:
[moviePlayerViewThatIFound addSubview:myCustomTransparentTouchView];

There is no guarantee that any of these will work, but they are probable solutions.

A: Corey, thanks for the comments.
I've got a solution that works...if I create the transparent image in the initWithFrame, versus trying to draw a transparent image in drawRect, all is well.


Good news for people with too large music collations, Apple Music new allows its users to upload up to 100K songs. Previously it was locked at 25K.
Apple's Eddy Cue announced in the past that they are working to increase upload limit of user music into Apple Music servers.
MacRumors has confirmed that the limit has been lifted for Apple Music and iTunes match. This will make it possible for music enthusiasts to stream and download their own music content which is not yet available on Apple Music or iTunes.
When scanning for Music files on iTunes, it will match all music files with the iTunes or Apple Music library and if any file is not found, it can uploaded to Apple Serves to make it available for streaming on the go.
At the time of writing, Apple has not yet updated its support page.

7.6 magnitude earthquake off Indonesia and East Timor
MISE À DAY
A 7.6-magnitude earthquake struck deep in the ocean off Indonesia and East Timor on Tuesday, according to the United States Seismological Institute (USGS). &nbsp ;
The epicenter of the earthquake is located 427 kilometers south of the Indonesian island of Ambon, 95 kilometers deep, the institute said.
Indonesia's Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) initially warned of a possible tsunami, before lifting the warning.
It also reported aftershocks. 'a magnitude of 5.5.
"I was in bed when I felt a slight tremor. I got up and realized that many of my friends had felt it too," Hamdi, an Indonesian from Ambon, told AFP.
Indonesia is experiencing seismic activity frequent due to its position on the Pacific "Ring of Fire", where tectonic plates collide.
On November 21, a magnitude 5.6 earthquake killed 602 people when it hit the populated province of West Java, on the main island of Java.
As for December 26, 2004, a major earthquake off Sumatra triggered an Indian Ocean tsunami that killed more than 230 000 people as far as Sri Lanka, India and Thailand.

Gap between highest and lowest mortgage rates at a five-year record
The gap between the highest and lowest mortgage rates has stretched to a five-year record.
It comes after the launch of a mortgage rate of less than 2pc which has driven a surge in switching activity.
The new rate is the lowest in this market for 12 years.
The gap in rates means the difference in cost between the highest and lowest rate is costing more than €4,000 a year, a rise of €650.
Spanish-owned lender Avant Money is responsible for the difference widening between the best-value rate and the highest home-loan rate.
It is five years since there has been such a gap in the highest and lowest rates on the market, according to the Irish Independent Doddl Mortgage Switching Index.
The spread between the highest and lowest interest rates available on the market has now grown to 2.55pc.
This works out at a saving of €135 per month for every €100,000 owed on a 25-year mortgage.
Managing director of Doddl.ie, Martina Hennessy, said: "The introduction by Avant Money of a sub-2pc mortgage interest rate means that rates are now the lowest they have been for over 12 years since the withdrawal of tracker mortgages in 2008."
She said her brokerage has seen a 60pc surge in the volume of switcher applications since Avant entered the market as a challenger.
"The addition of Avant Money as a broker-only offering means there are four mortgage lenders in Ireland who rely on the broker market as their core distribution channel."
The Avant interest rate goes from 1.95pc for those borrowing 60pc or less of the value of the home.
Ms Hennessy said: "We have also seen a large increase in mortgage holders whose loan to value is 60pc or less, and who were not previously active in the switching market.
"This cohort of mortgage holder has been awoken by the headline rate drop below 2pc."
She said customers with a loan to value of less than 60pc are generally comfortable with their payments and within the last 15 years of their term.
But they realise how much they could save and potentially repay their mortgage much quicker.
Mortgage switching increased for the three months to the end of September by over 13pc in volume compared to the prior quarter, Doddl.ie said.
The Central Bank recently said that mortgage holders are leaving thousands of euro on the table by failing to switch home-loan provider.
Its research found three in five eligible mortgages could save more than €1,000 in the first year after switching to a cheaper lender.
These borrowers could save more than €10,000 over the remaining term of the loan.
Ms Hennessy said many mortgage holders are still unaware of the substantial savings that can be made by switching mortgage or where to start.
The Central Bank found many people perceive switching to be a complicated or costly process. But Ms Hennessy said using a broker takes much of the hassle out of the process.


Assassin's Creed Syndicate is still getting updated by Ubisoft a year after its initial release, though this latest update was one that many did not see coming. The game's latest update has added PlayStation 4 Pro support to the game, which is a move that Ubisoft had not previously announced.
This was done through update 1.5 for the game, though the only thing we know so far is that it adds 4K support to the game. The thread on NeoGAF has been updated several times by the original person who spotted the 4K update, though there has been some mixed reports regarding whether this actually makes the game look better or worse at the current time.
We're going to have to wait for more information from Ubisoft on the details of this patch, and if whether or not the initial problems reported are widespread or not. You can check out the NeoGAF thread by clicking right here.
While there is no new main Assassin's Creed game launching this year, Ubisoft did recently release Assassin's Creed: The Ezio collection that remastered earlier games in the series. You can check out our review of the collection by clicking right here.

Today's Feast is especially meaningful because of the Church's current excruciation. We are, at this moment, sharing in our Lord's suffering in an intense, collective, and universal way.
Looking forward, it seems to me that we can even now see some of the elements of our resurrection triumph which the sharing in this cross makes possible.
1. A deep love for the Church's perennial teaching on the Christian call to holiness through chastity, in every state of life. St. Paul called this obedience of faith, the offering of our bodies, "rational worship." To people who are subject to concupiscence, often very badly formed, and swimming in a culture virtually devoid of good example, the Church's teachings seem much more like a series of "thou shalt nots" than a joyfully exuberant path of life. A scandal of this proportion tends to simplify matters into the easy choice of Deuteronomy: life, or death. Choose life for you and your children. Choose life.
2. A renewal of the servant-leader approach to episcopal service. In every profession there comes a point of seniority after which it becomes very hard to be fired: tenure in academia and partnership in law, for example. Redress of complaints made by juniors to seniors after this point is limited. For me, and perhaps for others, the apparent assumption of this privileged status by our bishops in their 2002 agreement constitutes one of the major betrayals leading to the current outcry. Combined with this is a perception that at times some bishops may have used the power of the charter as a weapon against priests who have not committed crimes of this nature, but who are troublesome in some other way. In so many ways, this particular time is a purification for bishops as a group, for their relationships with their priests and seminarians, as well as for their care of their people. This is a moment when all of these things could be rethought and moved forward on an excellent footing.
3. The historical possibility of clearing an enormous worldwide organization of sexual abuse of minors and subordinates. Sexual abuse is not a Catholic problem. It is a human problem. For various reasons, including such practical reasons as deep pockets and such spiritual reasons as hatred of the faith, the Catholic Church is nearly alone in being called out in public regarding abuse. As an example, the Washington Post once ran an article about a school teacher who had sexually abused students. This article was not, as would have been the case for a priest, a major headline above the fold on the front page. It was instead in the local section, several pages back, with a one-inch photo. Every organization that works with young people has this problem of sexual predation, not to mention the many people who abuse the young on a personal level. The Church's time in the spotlight is not fair, in a sense. But it is much more important to note that the terror and pain of victims are entirely unfair, and our crises give us an opportunity to make a safe place for all people. This is a world full of abuse and human trafficking and sorrow inflicted by the strong upon the vulnerable. If that one safe place–an entirely safe place–happened to be uniquely the Catholic Church, that would go a long way towards fulfilling the prayer of Jesus, that the Father's will be done on earth as in heaven, in the place where such goodness should in fact happen, in the Catholic Church.
4. The removal of a problematic group from Church leadership. Ascending on high, Christ gave gifts to the human race. These gifts are people—prophets, teachers, etc. If these gifts, these gifted gifts from the Giver of all good gifts, are to have scope for their exercise and fruition, this would be easier if they were not excluded for the wrong reasons. Probably everyone who has worked in the Church knows about exclusion for the wrong reasons, such as faithful and healthy seminarians who were dismissed for alleged "rigidity." Over and above these sometimes facile condemnations, there is also a problem of falling outside the network of preferment. When, as now, one of the most powerful current networks of preferment exists because of sin, acts to support sin, and self-perpetuates by introducing others to sin, then this situation acts contrary to the gifts that Christ, ascending, gave. If the Church is a ship, this group grounds us at shoals. If the Church is a net, they tangle our exercise. If the Church is a body, we are thwarted in health. Instead of committing itself to strong and healthy forward motion, the Church is weakened and depressed–introspective. We have tangled nets. They must be loosened from those whose dispositions and ambition have made them capable of stranglehold.
5. A time of grace for repentance. If in the past there have been clergymen and even bishops who have live a twisted double life including predation and other crimes, they may have died without ever coming face to face with their sins, and sincerely repenting. This is a horrifying thought. Once someone is conceived, born, and baptized, their eternal destiny is of infinite importance. This is true even if their power was once such that no one dared to confront them until they were gravely incapacitated–like the incapacity that seems to have started the current redress. "In his riches, man lacks wisdom. He is like the beasts that are destroyed." The eternal weight of a human soul, potentially glorious forever, potentially agonized forever, whose destiny is determined not by thought and choice but by almost unconsidered yet wildly destructive malice–this is an unendurable thought. Accountability, among its many other benefits, gives the guilty an opportunity to think seriously about important matters, to make amends, and to plead for pardon.
