Q: Make a Java applet take 100% height of the parent element I have this popup window that divides the screen to two rows, one fluid (blue)  and the other have constant height of 64px (Green).
if the applet is set to 100% height - it will ignore its container and swollen 100 height of the popup
<applet id="jumpLoaderApplet" width="100%" height="90%"></applet>

If the height is 90% - there will be a visible 10% (See blue part in the pic)
Blue row contains a java applet - I am having issues making the java applet take 100% height of its parent div.
When there is no applet - there is no problem.
.content {
    position:absolute;
    width:100%;
    height:100%;
    top:0;
    bottom:64px;
    background:blue;
}
.footer {
    position:absolute;
    width:100%;
    height:64px;
    bottom:0;
    background:green;
}

Here is the code along with the CSS
See the blue part- its part of the applet div:

A: Here are a couple options:
You can use calc() to set the height of the parent element to 100% minus the 64px at the bottom:
.content {
    position: absolute;
    width: 100%;
    height: calc(100% - 64px);
    top: 0;
    background: blue;
}

In doing so, you can now give the applet a height of 100% of the parent.
.applet {
    height: 100%;
}

.. you could also just use calc() to set the height of the applet too:
.applet {
    height: calc(100% - 64px);
}

.. or you could absolutely position the applet within the parent element:
.content {
    position: absolute;
    width: 100%;
    height: calc(100% - 64px);
    top: 0;
}
.applet {
    position: absolute;
    top: 0; bottom: 0;
    left: 0; right: 0;
}

It's worth pointing out that you can also use viewport percentage values:

5.1.2. Viewport-percentage lengths: the 'vw', 'vh', 'vmin', 'vmax' units
The viewport-percentage lengths are relative to the size of the initial containing block. When the height or width of the initial containing block is changed, they are scaled accordingly.

You can therefore use 100vh rather than 100%: calc(100vh - 64px):
.content {
    position: absolute;
    width: 100%;
    height: calc(100vh - 64px);
    top: 0;
    background: blue;
}

.. likewise:
.applet {
    height: calc(100vh - 64px);
}

If you're interested in browser support for calc(), see here. Also, support for viewport lengths can be found here.

Q: htaccess RewriteCond, Multiple Conditions for RewriteRule I use .htaccess Mod Rewrite to send the URL to index.php, which then parses the URL and builds each page of my website.
This works perfectly fine, allowing me to easily manage clean URLs using PHP instead of .htaccess.
Ex: http://domain.com/some/url/here/ -> goes to index.php, which loads a page with multiple PHP files put together
However, I'm trying to allow certain PHP files to load as regular PHP files (without sending the URL to index.php to parse).
Ex: http://domain.com/some/url/here/ still works as mentioned above.
http://domain.com/specialexception.php will load as a regular php file, without sending to index.php
I have the following code:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

    RewriteEngine On

    RewriteCond $1 !^specialexception\.php$ [NC]
    RewriteRule !\.(css|gif|jpg|png|ico|txt|xml|js|pdf|htm|zip)$ /path/to/index.php [NC,L]

</IfModule>

However, the RewriteCond line is simply ignored right now.
I would appreciate any help/ideas!
Thank you.

A: <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(specialexception)\.php$
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(anotherexception)\.php$
    RewriteRule !\.(css|gif|jpg|png|ico|txt|xml|js|pdf|htm|zip)$ index.php [NC,L]
</IfModule>

this works fine for me. If your .htaccess lies in the same directory like index.php don't use the path from webroot. Instead use the path relative to your .htaccess-file.

A: I figured it out, though I'm not sure why this works:
I switched the rules around so they happened in reverse order.
Code that works is as follows:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(css|gif|jpg|png|ico|txt|xml|js|pdf|htm|zip)$
RewriteRule !(specialexception)+\.php)$ /path/to/index.php [NC,L]

The problem with this solution:
Since "specialexception.php" is listed as the last rule, in the actual RewriteRule line, it only solves the problem for ONE file exception.
One messy way around this might be to use the pipe in the last line of regex:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(css|gif|jpg|png|ico|txt|xml|js|pdf|htm|zip)$
RewriteRule !(specialexception|anotherexception|foo|bar)+\.php)$ /path/to/index.php [NC,L]

If anyone has a better idea on how to add multiple exceptions for multiple files, I'd love to know!

What information is publicly available through the Fisheries Act Registry?
Why is DFO building a Fisheries Act (FA) Registry?
What is the goal of the Fisheries Act (FA) Registry?
How frequently is information added/or data updated?
Will authorization documents be included on the Fisheries Act Registry?
Will the information on the Registry still be posted to the Open Data site?
What privacy protections are being incorporated into the Fisheries Act Registry?
How will Indigenous knowledge be managed by DFO?
Where can I find more information about authorizations?
Each project information page contains key information about authorizations or amendments issued since the coming into force of the modernized Fisheries Act on August 28, 2019. Information includes:
Authorization type
Primary work
Province (or Territory)
Watershed name
Status of the Authorization
The Fisheries Act Registry also provides access to standards and (interim) codes of practice for measures to carry on a work, undertaking or activity while avoiding causing:
the death of fish
the harmful alteration, disruption or destruction of fish habitat
At this time, information about authorizations issued under the fish and fish habitat protection provisions of the Act will be available. The actual authorizations may be released at a future date, as the Registry develops. Information about authorizations will be refreshed automatically to provide real-time access to new information as it becomes available, and Canadians will be able to access information on projects across three federal departments via the Common Project Search platform.
The Fisheries Act contains provisions requiring DFO to have a public facing Registry to provide public access to project-specific information. While these provisions are not yet in force, DFO is committed to working toward it and to releasing information in support of the Government's goals around transparency, access and accountability in federal decision-making.
At this time, the goal is to deliver on the Government's priorities around obligations to support access to project-specific records as outlined in the Fisheries Act.
The system will check for updates automatically, displaying updated information as it becomes available, while maintaining the ability to see earlier information that was available for a given authorization.
At this time, project-based information about authorizations issued under the fish and fish habitat protection provisions of the Act will be available. The actual authorizations may be released at a future date, as the Registry develops. Information about authorizations will be refreshed automatically to provide real-time access to new information as it becomes available, and Canadians will be able to access information on projects across three federal departments via the Common Project Search platform.
Yes, monthly dataset releases of information about authorizations will still be posted to the Open Data site around the first of the month. This dataset will include all authorizations issued within the last month (new), as well as existing authorization records. The process for this dataset release will not change.
The Fisheries Act Registry follows the rules as in the federal Privacy Act. The Privacy Act gives Canadian citizens, permanent residents, and individuals present in Canada the right to access their personal information held by government institutions that are subject to the Act, and protects that information against unauthorized collection, use, retention and disclosure. The Act complements other acts and procedures for access to personal information.
Indigenous knowledge provided to Fish and Fish Habitat Protection Program (FFHPP) will not be posted on the Fisheries Act Registry. Indigenous knowledge provided to DFO for a particular purpose will only be considered for that purpose based upon the agreement between DFO and the Indigenous Nation/community that provided it. Indigenous knowledge provided in confidence will not be disclosed as per the requirements set out under the Fisheries Act.
The Fish and Fish Habitat Protection Program at Fisheries and Oceans Canada provides information about the Regulatory review process and applications for Fisheries Act authorizations on the Projects Near Water website.
For more information, please contact Fish and Fish Habitat Protection Program (FFHPP) at DFO.NCRFFHPP-PPPHRCN.MPO@DFO-MPO.GC.CA.

Domestic workers in Causeway Bay. Photo: Asia Times
Worker group denounces government response to UN
Government representative tells UN imported domestic workers get protection from Standard Employment Contract not available to locals
Hong Kong will continue to enforce the live-in rules for domestic workers and required those whose contracts were terminated to leave the city within two weeks.
The stance was made by the government representative at the United Nations Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination meeting in Geneva in August, which drew criticism from domestic worker groups, the sunwebhk.com reported.
Andy Chan, the Undersecretary for Constitutional and Mainland Affairs, led a delegation to answer the UN committee's questions on issues about racial discrimination and human rights in Hong Kong at the quadrennial meeting.
Chan said under Hong Kong labor laws, domestic workers enjoy the same rights and protection as local workers, adding that they could get further protection from the Standard Employment Contract, which provides benefits not necessarily available to local workers.
Chan said domestic workers had a minimum allowable wage, free accommodation, free food or a food allowance, free medical care and free passage to and from their places of origin.
He added that locals were given priority in jobs, which has been the city's policy. Imported labor should be allowed only if a post cannot be filled by locals, he said.
Johan Tong of the Mission for Migrant Workers denounced Chan's claims as lies and called the government's response "disappointing."
"They stressed that everything is legitimate and acceptable … they tried to justify the two-week rule is very necessary for immigration control and they tried to assume that all migrant domestic workers work illegally or commit job-hopping if they live out," Tong said.
She also hit out at the government's claim that there was no shortage of local domestic workers. Tong said the fact is it's expensive for local people to hire local domestic workers.

Arzach () is a comic book collection of four wordless short stories by artist/author Jean 'Moebius' Giraud, which were originally published in the French sci-fi/fantasy comics magazine Métal Hurlant. The stories follow Arzach, a silent warrior who rides a pterodactyl-like creature through a strange, desolate landscape. The imagery and situations in Arzach are often compared to dreams or the subconscious. These stories had an enormous impact on the French comics industry, and the Arzach character is still among Moebius' most famous creations. It can be defined as a pantomime comic, fantasy comics or an experimental comic.

The spelling of the title, originally Arzach, was changed in each of the original short stories.

Moebius later revisited the character with a story called The Legend of Arzach. This later story contains dialogue, and it ties the Arzach stories into a previously unrelated Moebius story called The Detour.

Moebius' 2010 book Arzak: L'Arpenteur (Arzak: The Surveyor) was the first of a planned trilogy to explore the origin of the character. However, with the death of Jean Giraud in March 2012, this vision was never realised.

Legacy
Arzach is credited as the inspiration for the final sequence, "Taarna", of the animated film Heavy Metal (1981).

Moebius' Arzach is a novel by Jean-Marc and Randy Lofficier, published by iBOOKS in August 2000. The book features a cover and inside illustrations by Moebius, and a map by J.O. Ladronn. The first half of the book is a novelisation of several Arzach stories. The second half recursively introduces John Gerard (a thinly disguised Jean Giraud) and family into the world of Arzach. A brief essay on the publishing history of Arzach concludes the book.

Arzach was one of Panzer Dragoon's major artistic influences. Jean Giraud even contributed in the creative process of Team Andromeda's game with original artwork.

Arzach inspired Hayao Miyazaki and he said in an interview the he directed Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind under Moebius' influence.

# Development

> Development guide for stdlib.

## Introduction

We are super excited that you have decided to develop stdlib, and we welcome you to the stdlib developer community. We have done our best to provide a complete environment for testing, benchmarking, documenting, and developing project code. And if you have any ideas as to how we can make it better, let us know!

Before we begin, developing stdlib requires some setup and configuration. What follows is an overview of environment requirements and a sequence of steps for getting up and running with stdlib. We use [Git][git] for version control, and for most tasks, we use [GNU make][make] (the original task runner) to help us get things done quickly and effectively. For the most part, the project is able to internally manage dependencies for testing, benchmarking, and linting, so, once you follow the steps below, you should be ready to start developing!

So, without further ado, let's get you started!

## Prerequisites

Developing and running stdlib **requires** the following prerequisites:

-   [Git][git]: version control
-   [GNU make][make]: development utility and task runner
-   [GNU bash][bash]: an sh-compatible shell
-   [curl][curl], [wget][wget], or [fetch][fetch] (FreeBSD): utilities for downloading remote resources
-   [Node.js][node-js]: JavaScript runtime (version `>= 0.10`; although the latest stable version is **strongly** recommended)
-   [npm][npm]: package manager (version `> 2.7.0`; if Node `< 1.0.0`, version `> 2.7.0` and `< 4.0.0`; if Node `< 10.x.x`, version `> 2.7.0` and `< 6.0.0`)

While not required to run stdlib, the following dependencies **may** be required for testing, benchmarking, and general development:

-   [Julia][julia]: language for technical computing (version `>= 0.5` and `<= 0.7`)
-   [R][r]: language for statistical computing (version `>= 3.4.0`)
-   [Python][python]: general purpose language (version `>=2.7.x`)
-   [pip][pip]: Python package manager (version `>= 9.0.0`; **required** for automatically installing Python packages, such as lint tools)
-   [gcc & g++][gcc] or [Clang][clang]: C/C++ compilation and linking (g++ version `>= 4.8`; clang version `>= 3.5`, Xcode version `>=8.3.1` on OS X)
-   [gfortran][gfortran]: Fortran compilation and linking (version `>= 4.8`)
-   [CMake][cmake]: cross-platform build environment (version `>= 3.4.3`)
-   [pandoc][pandoc]: universal document converter (version `>= 1.18`)
-   [Homebrew][homebrew]: macOS package manager (only **required** on OS X in order to install [shellcheck][shellcheck])

Assuming the requisite language is present on the host machine, the following language libraries can be automatically downloaded and installed using `make` (see [installation](#installation)):

-   [NumPy][numpy]: general purpose array-processing library for Python (version `>= 1.8.2`)
-   [SciPy][scipy]: Python library containing numerical routines (version `>= 0.17.0`)
-   [Pylint][pylint]: Python source code analyzer (version `>= 1.7.1`)
-   [pycodestyle][pycodestyle]: Python style guide checker against PEP 8 (version `>= 2.3.1`)
-   [pydocstyle][pydocstyle]: Python docstring checker against PEP 257 (version `>= 2.0.0`)
-   [lintr][lintr]: static code analysis for R (version `>= 1.0.0`)
-   [shellcheck][shellcheck]: static code analysis for shell scripts (version `>= 0.5.0`; to install on OS X, either install [Homebrew][homebrew] as a prerequisite or install [shellcheck][shellcheck] manually)
-   [cppcheck][cppcheck]: C/C++ static code analysis (version `>= 2.5`).

The following external libraries can be automatically downloaded and compiled from source using `make` (see [installation](#installation)):

-   [Boost][boost]: portable C++ libraries
-   [Cephes][cephes]: C/C++ special functions math library
-   [OpenBLAS][openblas]: optimized BLAS library
-   [Electron][electron]: framework for cross-platform desktop applications
-   [Emscripten][emscripten]: LLVM to JavaScript compiler
-   [WebAssembly Binary Toolkit][wabt]: suite of tools for WebAssembly

## Download

To acquire the source code, first navigate to the parent directory into which you want to place the project [Git][git] repository. Because of this project's heavy reliance on [GNU make][make], the directory path should **not** include spaces or any other shell meta characters such as `$` or `:`, as these characters will cause [GNU make][make] and the installation process to fail.

<!-- run-disable -->

```bash
$ cd /path/to/parent/destination/directory
```

Next, clone the repository.

<!-- run-disable -->

```bash
$ git clone https://github.com/stdlib-js/stdlib.git
```

If you are wanting to contribute to stdlib, first [fork][github-fork] the repository and amend the previous command.

<!-- run-disable -->

```bash
$ git clone https://github.com/<username>/stdlib.git
```

where `<username>` is your GitHub username (assuming you are using GitHub to manage public repositories). The repository has a large commit history, leading to slow download times. If you are not interested in code archeology, you can reduce the download time by limiting the clone [depth][git-clone-depth].

<!-- run-disable -->

```bash
$ git clone --depth=<depth> https://github.com/<username>/stdlib.git
```

where `<depth>` refers to the number of commits you want to download (as few as `1` and as many as the entire project history).

If you are behind a firewall, you may need to use the `https` protocol, rather than the `git` protocol.

<!-- run-disable -->

```bash
$ git config --global url."https://".insteadOf git://
```

Once you have finished cloning the repository into the destination directory, you should see the folder `stdlib`. To proceed with configuring your environment, navigate to the project folder.

<!-- run-disable -->

```bash
$ cd stdlib
```

## Installation

To install dependencies (e.g., [Node.js][node-js] module dependencies),

<!-- run-disable -->

```bash
$ make install
```

To run dependency diagnostics,

<!-- run-disable -->

```bash
$ make deps-diagnostics
```

which will check for various development dependencies. Depending on your host system, you may be missing one or more dependencies. For most day-to-day `stdlib` development, these dependencies are not necessary and, thus, you do not need to immediately install them. If you are focusing on certain development areas (e.g., adding new math functionality), you'll be able to install the various dependencies on a case-by-case basis (e.g., requisite C/C++ linters, reference libraries, et cetera) using project tooling. For now, feel free to move along, and, if you get stuck or have questions, feel free to reach out to one of the core project maintainers.

To initialize the development environment,

<!-- run-disable -->

```bash
$ make init
```

Initializing the development environment configures [Git][git] hooks and other bells and whistles to aid in development. [Git][git] hooks are especially important as they enable automatic linting and testing to ensure that code meets style specifications and does not break.

## Verification

To verify your environment, run a sample of project tests.

<!-- run-disable -->

```bash
$ make TESTS_FILTER=".*/math/base/special/sin/.*" test
$ make EXAMPLES_FILTER=".*/math/base/special/sin/.*" examples
$ make BENCHMARKS_FILTER=".*/math/base/special/sin/.*" benchmark
```

If your environment is properly configured, each command should exit without errors.

## Update

If you have previously downloaded stdlib using `git clone`, you can update an existing source tree from the base project directory using `git pull`.

<!-- run-disable -->

```bash
$ git pull
```

If you are working with a [forked][github-fork] repository and wish to [sync][github-fork-sync] your local repository with the [upstream][git-remotes] project (i.e., incorporate changes from the main project repository into your local repository), assuming you have [configured a remote][github-remote] which points to the upstream repository,

<!-- run-disable -->

```bash
$ git fetch upstream
$ git merge upstream/<branch>
```

where `upstream` is the remote name and `<branch>` refers to the branch you want to merge into your local copy.

If you have initialized the development environment using `make init`, updating the source tree will trigger hooks to ensure all development dependencies are up-to-date.

## Organization

The stdlib source code is organized as follows:

```text
bin        executable binaries
deps       external library dependencies
dist       distributable files
docs       top-level documentation
etc        configuration files
examples   top-level library examples
lib        library source code
test       top-level tests
tools      development utilities
workshops  workshops
```

## Troubleshooting

-   Occasionally, new versions of external dependencies may cause conflicts with existing builds. Most of the time, running

    <!-- run-disable -->

    ```bash
    $ make clean
    $ make install
    ```

    will be enough to resolve these conflicts. Otherwise, remove the [Git][git] repository, clone, and reinstall.

-   Some terminal prompts display the current [Git][git] branch and its status. Displaying the status may add significant lag to your terminal. You may hide this information within the repository directory by updating the repository's [Git][git] configuration. For example, if using [GNU bash][bash],

    <!-- run-disable -->

    ```bash
    $ git config bash.showDirtyState false
    ```

    or if using [Zsh][zsh],

    <!-- run-disable -->

    ```bash
    $ git config --add oh-my-zsh.hide-dirty 1
    ```

-   Some shells (e.g., [Zsh][zsh]) may require quotes around environment variables to prevent the shell from expanding paths. If this is the case, wrap paths, or values which may be interpreted as paths, in quotes. For example, replace

    <!-- run-disable -->

    ```bash
    $ make TESTS_FILTER=.*/<pattern>/.* test
    ```

    with

    <!-- run-disable -->

    ```bash
    $ make TESTS_FILTER=".*/<pattern>/.*" test
    ```

## Editors

-   This repository uses [EditorConfig][editorconfig] to maintain consistent coding styles between different editors and IDEs, including [browsers][editorconfig-chrome].

## Testing

To run all project tests,

<!-- run-disable -->

```bash
$ make test
```

To run select tests,

<!-- run-disable -->

```bash
$ make TESTS_FILTER=".*/<pattern>/.*" test
```

where `<pattern>` is a pattern matching a particular path. For example, to test only base special math functions

<!-- run-disable -->

```bash
$ make TESTS_FILTER=".*/math/base/special/.*" test
```

where the pattern `.*/math/base/special/.*` matches any test file whose absolute path contains `math/base/special`.

To generate a test coverage report,

<!-- run-disable -->

```bash
$ make TESTS_FILTER=".*/<pattern>/.*" test-cov
$ make view-cov
```

If you are developing a tool (i.e., code located in the `tools` directory), to run tools tests

<!-- run-disable -->

```bash
$ make TESTS_FILTER=".*/<pattern>/.*" tools-test
$ make TESTS_FILTER=".*/<pattern>/.*" tools-test-cov
$ make view-cov
```

Similarly, to run benchmarks

<!-- run-disable -->

```bash
$ make BENCHMARKS_FILTER=".*/<pattern>/.*" benchmark
```

and examples

<!-- run-disable -->

```bash
$ make EXAMPLES_FILTER=".*/<pattern>/.*" examples
```

Trump orders hundreds of federal agents into Chicago
In a further escalation of his drive toward authoritarian rule, President Donald Trump has ordered hundreds of federal agents into the cities of Chicago, Illinois and Albuquerque, New Mexico. The executive order was announced at a media event held at the White House on Tuesday afternoon presided over by Trump and Attorney General William Barr.
Two hundred federal agents have already been deployed in Kansas City, Missouri as part of Operation LeGend, named after a four-year-old boy, LeGend Taliferro, killed in that city last month. Two hundred more are now being dispatched to Chicago and 35 to Albuquerque. In addition, the administration is sending $61 million to the three cities to hire more local police.
Trump presented the deployment of federal agents as an effort to save the minority populations of those cities, where the rates of gun crime and homicide have soared over the past year. In an effort to use the victims of such crimes as political props, his political aides recruited a number of parents of children killed in street violence to attend the event so Trump could point them out and have them take a bow.

The cynicism and callousness of this effort cannot be overstated. Trump recited the figures for deaths and injuries caused by gun violence in Chicago, a social tragedy to which he is completely indifferent except insofar as he can exploit it for reactionary political purposes.
"No mother should ever have to cradle her dead child in her arms simply because politicians refuse to do what is necessary to secure their neighborhood and to secure their city," Trump declared, trying unsuccessfully to manufacture a display of empathy.
Trump has never expressed the slightest feeling for those whose children were murdered by American police. One of his earliest overtly political interventions was to demand the execution of the Central Park Five, minority youth framed up in Manhattan for a crime they did not commit and later completely exonerated.
In his remarks Wednesday, Trump made a thoroughly dishonest amalgam between the conditions in Chicago, where more than a hundred people have died in gun violence this month, and in Portland, Oregon, where heavily armed federal officers drawn from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) have been deployed on the streets against supposed "anarchist mobs"—actually protesters against police violence, nearly all of them peaceful.
He blamed both phenomena on his political opponents within the US ruling elite, claiming that unnamed politicians, obviously Democrats, "have now embraced the far-left movement to break up our police departments, causing violent crime in their cities to spiral—and I mean spiral seriously out of control."
The occupant of the Oval Office is a liar, and not a skillful one, despite constant practice. No police department has been defunded, let alone broken up, nor do any Democratic politicians advocate such measures. They defend the capitalist state machinery of repression just as much as Trump and the Republicans.
The wave of bloodshed in Chicago cannot be attributed to any "softness" on the part of the police there. On the contrary, Chicago under decades of Democratic Party rule has become a byword for police brutality, torture and murder. The current mayor, Lori Lightfoot, owes her political rise to her work in whitewashing police killings under the previous mayor, Rahm Emanuel.
As the WSWS noted recently, in exposing the law-and-order policies of Lightfoot:
While the political right wing has long attempted to portray the city of Chicago as chaotic and lawless, the violence tends to be centered in deeply impoverished neighborhoods that have the most gang activity. These are neighborhoods that have been hit hardest by deindustrialization and the closure of schools, mental health facilities and other social services—policies carried out by the city's Democratic Party machine in the service of corporate interests.
The upsurge in bloodshed in recent years is a manifestation of the social decay of the capitalist system as a whole, for which both capitalist parties share responsibility.
Trump's reelection campaign has spent $20 million on a torrent of digital ads linking the events in Portland and Chicago. "Dangerous MOBS of far-left groups are running through our streets and causing absolute mayhem," one ad screams. "They are DESTROYING our cities and rioting."
In Chicago, as Mayor Lightfoot emphasized in a statement yesterday accepting the "assistance" of the Trump administration, the influx of federal agents will be employed behind the scenes, not on the city's streets, and they will be under the direction of the US attorney for the region, not of the Department of Homeland Security.
In other words, the Democratic Party-controlled local and state governments will remain in the driver's seat for the escalation of police repression in Chicago and Illinois, even as Trump seeks to set a precedent for a greater role for the federal government.
In Portland, however, the situation is different. The local police have been largely supplanted in the downtown area by federal forces based in a federal office building and the federal courthouse two blocks away.
At a court hearing Wednesday, Oregon state officials sought an injunction from a federal judge forbidding the federal agents from making arrests without probable cause and without identifying themselves. State Attorney General Ellen Rosenbloom denounced what she called "unconstitutional police state-type tactics" by the DHS.
Documents made public in conjunction with these court proceedings show that the DHS has deployed 114 agents of a previously secret body called the Rapid Deployment Force, drawn from Customs and Border Protection, Immigration and Customs Enforcement and other sub-units of the giant department.
The carefully planned operation in Portland was given the military-style codename Operation Diligent Valor and began on July 4, with agents deployed inside the two federal buildings looking for the opportunity, which finally presented itself on July 17-18, to make a sortie against protesters on the downtown streets. Agents wore camouflage-style military uniforms and badges embossed with the word "police," but no name tags and nothing to identify their agency or unit. They used unmarked vehicles and detained people without probable cause.
At a Senate committee hearing Wednesday, Senator Ron Wyden of Oregon warned of the precedent being set in Portland. "If the line is not drawn in the sand right now," he said, "America may be staring down the barrel of martial law in the middle of a presidential election."
The Republican former governor of Pennsylvania Tom Ridge, the first secretary of homeland security in the administration of George W. Bush, told a radio interviewer that "the DHS was not established to be the president's personal militia."
But the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, former Vice President Joe Biden, issued a statement that made no reference either to the threat to democracy or Trump's effort to transform the DHS into a paramilitary force at his disposal.
"Of course, the US government has the right and duty to protect federal property," he declared. "The Obama-Biden administration protected federal property across the country without resorting to these egregious tactics—and without trying to stoke the fires of division in this country. We need a president who will bring us together instead of tear us apart, calm instead of inflame, and enforce the law faithfully rather than put his political interests first."
As for Bernie Sanders, the "democratic socialist" turned water boy for the Biden campaign issued a letter to supporters warning that Trump's actions were "what a police state is all about." But his only remedy, besides voting for Biden on November 3, was to introduce legislation to "greatly curtail the activities of federal military forces in our communities."
Such legislation would, of course, not pass the Republican Senate, and even if it somehow did, it would then be subject to veto by Trump—its nominal target. Sanders seeks to divert his remaining supporters from taking any action to oppose the moves toward dictatorship in favor of another useless appeal to the capitalist political establishment.

For some weird reason Google Chrome crashed and I lost all the content of this thread so I am a bit pissed off and I will write all the stuff again when I relax. Meanwhile I will just deliver the essential stuff that is the second part of the thread.
Gemini of Recall - Castor & Pollux: Arguably one of the most powerful cards in the game and significantly popular in every setup that allows you to play either dark or god members. He will be the main damage dealer for your team, sadly Artemis can't break. He will take a while to max (slime farming, amelioration, power release and awakening recall) but it is totally worth it. Some people go to the extent of adding more than one copy of Pollux in to the team which means way more damage but personally I don't think that is something good to do unless you rely on Artemis heavily.
Hel the Morale of All: She is mainly used as a cushion, which means there is no way you will miss recovery. You can also abuse her synergy to get overheal with Artemis. The only drawback is that she won't attack so you will need to balance this by having Pollux or Alma in the team. I don't recommend to bring Hel as a permanent member but having her as something situational. In order to get her you need to clear all of the stages in the Age of Heroic Spirits excluding the extras and then wait for Tuesday because she is only available in that day.
Anubis the Jackal of Life & Death: Increasing the team attack passively and able to toggle Dark God Attack x2 every 3 turns is quite strong yet people fail to realize how to abuse the toggle mechanic properly. Other than that he is great because he will also increase the drop of Dark Runestones which Artemis highly appreciates. Personally I think that Anubis deserves some kind of upgrade but he is still strong.
Supreme Divine Overlord - Zeus: He provides A LOT of stats and can be used a long with Var to do 3 or different attributes achievement easily with Artemis staying as dark mono. His main active skill is thrash and is outdated, but his combine skill is not. I mean, the first portion of the combine skill will make it so Dark Runestones always drop together so the RNG can't hurt you that much, the second portion makes it so if there is a 6* Greek God active skill in play it will scale to the max damage. His second active skill is an offensive convert that turns hearts to his attribute, in this case would be to dark so is not that bad because it can help you get the 5 dark Runestones needed to keep Artemis active.
Twilight of the Night - Corvus: She is better at rainbow teams, yet she is better known as a budget alternative to Hel, problem is that she works just for 1 turn so you must be careful with your spinning and initial board, etc.
Sombre Void Zeus: This version of Zeus provides a faster burst at just CD5, and also provides the offensive conversion, most players will say that this card is meh but I actually like it, you can also use him as budget alternative to Anubis.
Scorpio of Agility - Alma: She is similar yet quite different to Pollux, her pros are that she deals a low poison damage to enemies with high armor and that her 4x bonus is easy to inflict on the enemies so for short scenarios she is probably better than Pollux which requires a lot of stall or opportunities to fully max his stacks. Another problem with Alma is that if the enemy is not controllable she is unable to inflict the poison and get the damage boost working.
Prince of Sorrow & Happiness - Edward: Probably one of the most underrated cards in the game, Edward have higher base attack than Pollux himself, which means that he can provide 2 rounds of 3.5x attack to Pollux every 6 turns, that is pretty deadly.
Obsessive Desire - Varuni: If you decide to go full of Gods then Varuni can be a good idea to keep the damage running, this being said she can be used as a budget alternative to Anubis.
Qi Tian Di: Before Pollux Awakening Recall was introduced he used to be the damage dealer for dark and god setups, then he has stayed relevant in the meta because he is able to explode runestones of selected attribute and have stats comparable to those of sealed lords (4.6k HP wtf?!). Sadly this guy was not returning and was the hardest boss in Tower of Saviors history at the time so very small amount of players have access to him.
Mischievous Wit - Lü Dongbin: He is a rare leader which is also able to play rainbowish setups, yet he can do a similar role same role as Qi Tian Di when it comes to exploding specific runestones.
Judge of the Dead - Osiris: Similar to Yomi, but he is different because he is probably the only snipe active that Vishnu have access to in the pool of Light and Dark Gods, other than that you will keep enchanted dark God Runestones and get a Dark multiplier bonus after the Runestones explode.
Death Redemption - Osiris: Can turn the enemy to light for 1 turn which is good to deal against switching shields or "non-weakness" type of shields.
Lord of All Gods - Khaos: Personally I don't own him yet (no light mono at the time), but he is a huge problem solver against a lot of enemy skills so it is good to keep him in consideration, also his stats are really high so I think it is hard to say that he can be a wrong choice.
Deathwhisperer Endor: She is good in all phases of the game but you are likely to use her until you manage to get Katherin with Harp of Fantasia or Khaos himself. I think that crafting her Dragonware is not a bad idea and that the condition for the boost is pretty easy to trigger in Artemis.
Regretful Vixen Su Daji: Probably you will need this if you are facing a metasphere, otherwise you are better using he Divergence form. You get the additional second from her Dragonware and the super high recovery so that is all she can provide until you complete her cooldown. Also I really don't like that her cooldown is so freaking high, you can drop it to 14 if you have her Dragonware.
Benevolent Xian Vixen - Su Daji: This divergence form makes more sense, I mean CD7 for half of the the power that you get from the refinement form and a lowered boost. Yet even if this form is pretty good you are more likely to end up playing Khaos or Endor.
Ascetic Mind Vishnu: all the benefits from that short CD active skill are too good to ignore, I will probably pick Vishnu active over Void Zeus.
Twin Divas Yan & Xi: The fatal call active for dark mono, sadly it comes in demon form with a subpar HP of 1.2k that is not compensated in any form when you look at her other stats. You will be using this card only for scenarios where you don't want Heart Runestones in the board or if you are planning to go full in to skydrop like going with Anubis and Hel.
Tempest of Sakura - Yomi: One of the best biweekly cards in the game, sadly she is not returning, 2 rounds of boosted damage and can explode the entire board which is great against all kind of board hazards, she is also faster than Egyptian Gods.
Cat Mercenary Commander - Felix: Board enchant and shared effect of all runestones, you can use this to unmask, deal with enchanted quintet shield or simply pair with Daji/Endor/Khaos for absurd damage in the first batch.
Memories Engulfer - Isabel: Dark mono doesn't have too many control options yet this one is one of the best in the game, if the enemy is one those that likes to strike super hard in the first attack or have initial shield but you can control it then she can save you as long as you are able to stall 10 rounds before reaching that enemy.
Removing hearts early will make it hard to get stacks for Pollux so you might consider changing him for Alma instead.
Hel won't provide damage and Xi attack will be minimal compared to other members so you will need to toggle Anubis every 3 turns and keep Artemis active running efficiently which should be hard as long as Xi is in play.
Edward along with self-attack boosters means absurd damage.
You can swap Alma for a second Pollux but remember that she is played in a different way because of poison etc.
Anubis can be change for Varuni or Sombre Void Zeus if you don't have him.
Luna AR bonuses are too good so if you don't mind loosing Damage per turn in order to get more burst go for it.
Hel along with Su Daji provide absurd healing.
Su Daji could also be Felix, Yomi or Osiris depending on what the stage calls for.
"Team consists of only gods" + "Team consists of 3 or more attributes"
Zeus and Var will change their attribute to dark so you can stay playing Artemis.
Then again Anubis could be changed to anything else.
Literally this is like playing Tan Sanzang or something but worst.
As long as you can tank and the enemy lets you have either light or heart runestones then you are fine.
Good for 30 riddles under the moonlight challenge.

Rohan Dennis wins Australian time trial championship
BUNINYONG, Australia (CT) – Rohan Dennis (BMC) has won the elite men's time trial at the 2016 Australian Road National Championships, finishing ahead of new teammate Richie Porte and former rower Sean Lake (Avanti IsoWhey).
Dennis started the race as the hot favourite having finished second behind Richie Porte in last year's race and having had the best year of his career since then. In 2015 Dennis won the Santos Tour Down Under, the USA Pro Challenge and the prologue individual time trial at the Tour de France.
In today's time trial Dennis posted the fastest time at both of the intermediate time checks out on course (14km and 26km) before storming home to complete the 40.9km course in a time of 51 minutes and 13 seconds (average 47.9km/h). Porte was 39 seconds slower while Sean Lake – a two-time winner of the Grafton to Inverell – was a somewhat unexpected podium finisher, stopping the clock a further 56 seconds behind Porte.
"It's always a dream to win the Aussie Nationals," Dennis said after the race. "I've won the U23s; now I've got a senior medal and to be able to wear the green and gold at every time trial this year is a true honour."
The win comes as something of a relief to Dennis who has been among the favourites in this race for several years, but has been unable to reach the top step. Two years ago he was among those expected to challenge for the win but was thrown from his bike by a freak gust of wind mid-race. In 2015 Dennis went out too hard and paid for his effort, fading in the second half and finishing second. This year he got it right.
"This year I think I went out a lot easier and came home stronger, so it's a whole different feeling — you still have some energy … at the finish," Dennis said. "You're not 30 minutes [at] your absolute max."
While the result was a satisfying one for Dennis, he's more focused on Sunday's Nationals road race. Dennis and Porte will line up as BMC's only two representatives but the pair are hoping for a good result.
"Obviously Sunday's still to come and there's another jersey so we can't celebrate tonight but we can have a little bit of a celebration and say 'job well done' for Thursday," Dennis said.
"It's going to be a bit of a numbers game obviously, like always, with [Orica-]GreenEdge. They've got a lot of strong riders. But we've got Richie and I … and Richie I are strong and I'm sure we can play a good card and hopefully take another green and gold."
Later this month Dennis will set out to defend his Santos Tour Down Under title but it's the Rio Olympics that will be the South Australian's biggest focus.
"Rio – that's my big goal this year, the time trial. Then there's the Qatar Worlds time trial there as well," Dennis said. "[I'm] Really looking at turning more towards the GC side of things after Rio. So I've got one more year of pure time trialling."
Earlier in the afternoon Kat Garfoot (Orica-AIS) won the elite women's individual time trial while Callum Scotson bested his brother Miles in the U23 men's time trial.
After a rest day tomorrow the Australian Road National Championships continue on Saturday with the U23 men's road race before the elite women's and elite men's road races on Sunday.

Q: USB C → DisplayPort Adapter support I already posted this over at reddit, but got no response until now.
I bought this cable just to find out my system doesn't do anything. Both lsusb and tail -f /var(log/kern.log don't show any difference when plugging the cable in and out. Is it worth trying to get this to work or should I just send it back directly? What is the status of DP via USB–C in Linux? (Found a lot of rather confusing questions and answers out there)

A: [EDIT: I append at the end of this answer a very brief update, one year after i gave the answer here. If this update should be a second, separate answer, please lmk. Apart from this update at the end, the answer is unchanged]
Your questions are very timely, even though you asked them 7 months ago. And you asked two questions, so you get two answers:

*

*Is it worth trying to get this to work or should I just send it back directly?

A set of kernel patches to support DisplayPort over USB-C have just been published to the Linux-kernel archive here. So for the moment, you need to apply patches and roll your own kernel for it to be possibly worthwhile. (This is less scary than it might seem at first, so I hope you'll consider this encouragement and not the opposite).
A second constraint is that according to the that  post in the Linux-Kernel archive, the patches are good for hardware platforms that use FUSB controllers. He will soon also publish support for UCSI controllers -- and I think (but am not positive) that both Intel and ASMedia controllers are of this type. To quote him:

I've tested these with a platform that has fusb302, and also with UCSI
  platforms. The UCSI driver will need separate support for alternate modes >that I'm not including to this series. I'm still working on it.

In other words, "soon."

*What is the status of DP via USB–C in Linux?

I learned about the above in an article in Phoronix, and the article states that the hope is to merge these patches into the 4.19 kernel.
Finally, it's worth noting that for the particular case of DisplayPort over USB-C, the cable is entirely passive and there is a rather mature standard, so you can be close to certain that your cable WILL work once there is OS support for it. This is also true of Thunderbolt over USB-C, but not true of HMDI, for example: A USB-C to HDMI cable is likely to be a DP-to-HDMI adapter on the inside, with the DP side simply using the standard USB-C connector.
If you are not going to deal with kernel patches, I would guess that your cable will 'just work' sometime between 3 months to one year from now.
EDIT/UPDATE: My day-to-day machine is a Dell 7577 Inspiron laptop, running stock Arch Linux. It has a USB-C port and an HDMI port, and I run X/openbox on it with THREE side-by-side monitors: one of them is connected with a stock/standard HDMI cable, and the other with a stock/standard USB-C-to-DisplayPort cable. "Three Monitors with Arch Linux and this particular Dell laptop: It just works". It seems that the prediction I made in the last sentence of the original answer has proved to be accurate.
That being said, there are two important little caveats/nits that I would certainly consider if I were buying a machine today, and wanted this configuration of monitors:

*

*I find the whole "hybrid/mixed/dual discrete and integrated GPU" architecture to be a pain to understand and manage. It's a pain, but it is possible (barely). On Dell systems this architecture is called "Optimus", and how you set things up will have an enormous impact on the kind of video function and performance you get. I realize that I'm being very generic, but there isn't any one thing that's true for all set ups. Basically: if you are looking a machine that has BOTH an integrated GPU AND a discrete GPU, do some research to make sure that OS you intend to install  can support the configuration you wish to use.

*In particular, it seems that many (most? all?) modern laptops seem to hard-wire each monitor output port to exactly ONE of the two GPUs. So, for example, if the laptop built-in LCD display is hard-wired to the integrated GPU, then any  time you use the discrete NVIDIA or Radeon GPU with an application, each frame will be copied at the end over to the integrated GPU in order to actually get displayed on the screen. It may well be that the performance gain from the discrete GPU is so enormous that this extra copy is a negligible price to pay.  But it might not be; and even if it is, intensive users of discrete GPU-power often are the type of person who don't like to pay even the most negligible of prices.
I am no true expert, but i think that that's where linux support for three monitors is today. (If by "three monitors" one means "using simultaneously the built-in LCD screen and the two external monitor ports on the laptop."


The ideas presented in this sequence of articles derive from the combined experiences of two generations of modellers.
My father was a senior operating department officer in what became the Southern Region of British Railways, having started his career as a booking clerk at Tulse Hill, (L.B.S.C.Rly.) in 1921. He had risen through the ranks, via various courses at the Croydon training centre run by the L.B.S.C., and arrived as a junior in the operating department at Waterloo in the late '20s. He seems to have caught the eye of the operating superintendent, a Mr. S. W. Smart, because one evening in 1931 he was called into the office, seated, (unusual for an underling) and instructed to go to the Isle of Wight and "turn that shambles into a train service".
Once there, he discovered that the person newly-despatched to sort out the mechanical aspects of what had been three impecunious village railways was a Mr. A. B. McCleod with whom, via a common interest in railway modelling, a lifelong friendship began. 'S.W.S' as he was universally known must have suspected that something a little out of the ordinary was about to happen, but he did not bargain for my father's intensely practical turn of mind. Over a couple of weeks, each station and halt on the Island was visited, and the staff asked what in their view would make the services more useful to the locals, and the holiday-makers on which the economy depended for the summer period.
With the germ of an idea in his mind, he then went to Ventnor, and walked at a leisurely pace out to the furthest guest-house from the station, noting the time taken. This, he later told me, was to allow a family with a toddler and a push-chair to leave the guest-house after breakfast, reach the station in time to get tickets to anywhere on the Island and then go out for the day, returning conveniently in time for the evening meal. Believe it or not, this was truly radical thinking at that time!
All this information, duly digested, was discussed with 'Mac', and the conclusion was that the locomotives then on the Island would not be capable of powering the sort of major (for the Island) journeys that were implied by the service pattern developing in his mind. For that matter, the coaching stock would not be adequate for the anticipated traffic either. 'Mac' had already started seeking out replacement motive power from Waterloo, and was offered some of the '02' class tank engines that were becoming outclassed for mainland shunting jobs. Experiments later showed that the small bunkers could not carry the coal required for the daily mileages my father was demanding, hence the locally-produced extended bunkers so familiar to modellers of the Island scene.
The rest is history, beginning with the 'take you anywhere for the day and back again' services, and ending with the sight of one of the original printed service display cards (with much deleted) still on display in Shanklin booking office in 1966, just before the change to electric operation.
He never said very much about the rest of the 'thirties, except that there was the biannual fine tuning of the Island services, to keep up with developing traffic, and it was not until the war that he really came into his own again, firstly over the Dunkirk evacuation trains, (find the locomotives, the crews, and the coaching stock, and organise the servicing arrangements, including liaison with the G.W.R., do it in one week!) and manage the clear-up, such as shifting 12 foot high piles of ash from Redhill loco yard, in the middle of the blitz.
In between long days at the Deepdene hotel at Dorking, (wartime headquarters of the Southern Railway), he managed to find time to be an air raid warden locally, and the quieter watches of the night provided time for relaxation in the form of model-making, using the very limited materials available.
He had a big hand in the preparations for D-day, organising the freight movements into and out of the many extra sidings put down all over the Southern to store the material for that event and its aftermath.
This experience contributed to the Southern's response to the disastrous floods of 1953, when vast amounts of earth, rubble and chalk were needed to repair the damaged sea defences. I recall his amusement at an overheard comment by one morning commuter from Kent that his local station yard had grown in the night. It had! Contractors had pulled down the hillside embankment face the previous day and the material had been loaded into one of my father's special freight trains, taken to the coast and used. Meanwhile the permanent way department had moved the siding over ready for the exercise to be repeated the next night.
Starting about then, it had become apparent that the traffic both of passengers and freight was beginning to be lost to the roads, and an organised trimming of services was begun. This mainly affected the steam-hauled ex-South Western lines, so my father got the job, with a small team of assistants, of revising the services and operating practices to fit the new diminished traffic. The by-now usual approach was adopted, of going out and talking to the crews and station staffs of any line they were working on, explaining what they were doing, observing what was happening, and picking up local knowledge of likely future trends. He said later that the many mugs of tea in loco men's bothies, shunter's huts and signal boxes around the Region were the best investment of time that he ever made. The result, over several years of work, was that working practices and equipment were gradually altered to keep the railway commercially viable, without any directly related redundancies, a fact which delighted my father. This, of course, was before the wholesale destruction later inflicted by the Beeching process.
His model railway career had passed through two stages during this period. The first was the full development of a gauge 0 clockwork-powered layout representing the Southern's west of England line, starting at Waterloo, through Salisbury and Exeter to Plymouth via Okehampton, the Padstow branch and to Ilfracombe, all in a 22ft by 8ft shed. Father and son spent many happy hours operating this together, he with Waterloo, Exeter, Plymouth and the two loops representing Templecombe and Yeovil, while I had Salisbury, Ilfracombe, Okehampton and Padstow (once I was tall enough!) This was later sold in favour of a 7½" gauge live steam locomotive that was operated on the Greywood Central Railway, later to become the Ian Allan Great Cockcrow Railway at Lyne, near Chertsey, Surrey. 'Mac' had got him involved in that activity, having been the only member of the syndicate that ran the original line with any real railway knowledge. He started there as one of the two signalmen, 'Mac' being the other, and he quickly gave them a cut-down version of the B.R. rule book, intended to correct a tendency among some of the other members to regard signals as decorations rather than safety devices!
Having 'made his name' as it were with the Island activity, he decided when retirement came in 1964 to move there, and settled in Totland. The live-steamer metamorphosed into an electronic organ, (he was always interested in music), and he made up a small '00' terminus layout loosely based on Cowes, just for old time's sake. I put together the Wills '02' and 'E1' kits for him, and did the simple electrics. As time went on, failing health and the remoteness of Totland from family and friends decided him to return to the mainland, and a bungalow at Effingham, near the junction station.
He passed away in 1986, and I acquired the little layout and its stock, plus the few remaining items from the '0' gauge days, and a number of other railway related artefacts. He had kept the reference copies of the Island timetables, so they went to Haven Street, for their museum and library. I have the "working timetables" that he had developed for the clockwork model, which bring back memories still.
I came along just at the outbreak of the Second World War, and one of my earliest memories is of an interminable train journey to evacuation in Glasgow with an aunt. I must have had my eyes open to railway matters even then, though, because I recall passing the engine at the platform end and remarking that it looked very tired after coming all that way. This caused a small amount of wry amusement on the footplate, where the real exhaustion was to be found! As my father found the time and materials, various '0' gauge trains and an oval of track for the lounge floor appeared, and in course of time I was allowed increasing access to the layout in the shed, which had actually just been started when war broke out.
Time passed, and '00' appeared on the scene once the materials became available. As an inducement to do well at 11+, I was promised the then new Graham Farish freight train package; I did and it duly arrived, purchased from the Wills shop in Coulsdon. The fact that the locomotive was a 'Black five' and not a Southern prototype was to have a great significance much later.
I tidied up my father's by-now empty shed, and over about 20 years put together a simplified S and D based layout, which actually never had much scenery, but we could run the 1955 service more or less. The 'Black five' now has a hand made Portescap powered chassis, and did yeoman service on that line with a mix of coaches from various kits, and has been joined by an eclectic mix of kits, adjusted RTR and the odd scratch-built model. Similarly with the freight stock, progressing from litho sides to proper wood for wooden vehicles, and so on.
My father's small essay in '00' languished in the loft for a while, until I came upon it one day, and the germ of an idea for a portable layout was born. Over a number of years it has evolved into "The South Dorset Light Railway", a complete fiction, but demonstrating the working of a rural branch line and its interface with its customers. Little did I know when that project started that we would come to live in Dorset, very close to the location the line might have served.
I am the sort of modeller that likes to make as much as possible from scratch, a trait born in part from necessity years ago, but later reinforced by the sheer satisfaction of creating from the basic materials. I have always made my own point work, and latterly had a great deal of pleasure from making the built and landscape environment for various layouts as well as my own. I mix good purchased rolling stock with my own vehicular items, although some of the earliest examples are now showing their age and dated methods of construction, and have joined the scenery, at the back of remote sidings.
A new Somerset and Dorset is coming together slowly, and this one will have enough scenery to enable visitors to identify the depicted locations, while offering interesting operating potential for several people. The intention is that trains will pass from hand to hand as it were along the line, each person being totally responsible for their station, acting as signalman, driver, shunter, etc. as each task demands. I know that this replicates my father's achievement with his '0' gauge layout, but until you've experienced it, the satisfaction of doing it well is like nothing else the hobby offers.

Q: How can I manually calculate the value of a ValueAnimator at any given time I have a value animator that I want to use use to calculate different properties, I want to use just one and manually calculate the values I want given the fraction of completion of the value animator
for example this is a custom class that I use to get how far the scale has gone
private class ScaleUpdateListener implements ValueAnimator.AnimatorUpdateListener {

    @Override
    public void onAnimationUpdate(ValueAnimator animation) {
        currentScale = (Float) animation.getAnimatedValue();

        float fraction = animation.getAnimatedFraction();

            float translateX = // need to figure how far to translate between 200 and 100 given fraction

        invalidate();

    }

}

But I also want to calculate a translate value that goes from something like 200 to 100.
So just thinking about it at fraction .5 half way through id want to some how calculate 150, half way between 100 and 200, i just can't figure out the formula for it.

A: You need a function to tell what percentage of the way from a to b a number x is?
(x-a)/(b-a)

Il tricloruro di arsenico è il cloruro dell'arsenico trivalente, As(III), avente formula AsCl3. A temperatura ambiente AsCl3 si presenta come un liquido incolore, denso (d = 2,205 g/mL), leggermente oleoso, che fuma all'aria per l'umidità che ne idrolizza i vapori. È molto tossico e irritante.

Struttura molecolare e proprietà
AsCl3 è un composto molecolare che si forma dai suoi elementi esotermicamente, ΔHƒ° = -305,0 kJ/mol. Da indagini di spettroscopia rotazionale nella regione delle microonde risulta che la molecola è a forma di piramide trigonale, con l'atomo di As al vertice; il legame As-Cl è lungo 216,1 pm e l'angolo Cl-As-Cl è di 98,4° e questo angolo è un po' più stretto (100,1°) che nell'analogo tricloruro di fosforo.  La simmetria molecolare appartiene al gruppo puntuale C3v. Anche allo stato liquido e solido la struttura di AsCl3 è ancora molecolare, con lievi variazioni, come accade anche per AsF3 e AsBr3, ma a differenza del triioduro AsI3 (solido non molecolare).

AsCl3 è una molecola piuttosto polare (μ = 1,59 D) e il liquido viene utilizzato come solvente non acquoso: a 20 °C ha bassa viscosità (η = 1,23 cP), ha una apprezzabile conduttività (k = 1,4×10–7 ohm–1cm–1) e discreta costante dielettrica, εr = 12,8.

In rimarchevole differenza dal tricloruro di fosforo, il tricloruro di arsenico è piuttosto sorprendente nel resistere all'ossidazione ad As(V): solo il fluoro riesce facilmente dando AsF5 (molto stabile) e la formazione dell'ossitricloruro di arsenico AsOCl3 è stata realizzata dopo svariati tentativi solo nel 1976 trattando AsCl3 con ozono; anche il pentacloruro AsCl5 è anch'esso molto instabile, a marcata differenza di PCl5 (omologo inferiore) e SbCl5 (omologo superiore), e si decompone sopra a circa -50 °C. Questo comportamento dell'arsenico è comune anche agli ultimi elementi del quarto periodo, in particolare selenio e bromo.

AsCl3 è solubile in cloroformio, tetracloruro di carbonio e in etere; è anche solubile in AsF3, ma in tal caso si formano composti di scambio cloro-fluoro: AsFCl2 e AsF2Cl.

In acqua si scioglie idrolizzandosi rapidamente fino a acido arsenioso e acido cloridrico:

AsCl3 + 3 H2O → As(OH)3 + 3 HCl ↑

Viene preparato per reazione dell'anidride arseniosa As2O3 con acido cloridrico concentrato:
As2O3 + 6 HCl → 2 AsCl3 + 3 H2O
i prodotti della reazione vengono separati per distillazione.

Si può anche preparare per interazione diretta di arsenico elementare e cloro gassoso a 80-85 °C:

2 As  +  3 Cl2  →  2 AsCl3

Reagisce alcoli e fenoli dando i corrispondenti esteri dell'acido arsenioso; con il fenolo, ad esempio, dà il trifenilarsenito:
AsCl3 + PhOH → As(OPh)3 + 3 HCl
con alcoli e/o alcossidi alcalini in minore quantità molare forma alogeno esteri:
AsCl3 + EtOH → EtOAsCl2 + HCl
AsCl3 + 2 EtONa → (EtO)2AsCl + 2 NaCl
AsCl3 è importante composto di partenza in chimica organometallica per la sintesi di arsine (AsR3), che sono comuni leganti per metalli in bassi stati di ossidazione, analoghi alle fosfine; ad esempio, con sodio metallico e clorobenzene si ottiene la trifenilarsina:

AsCl3  +  6 Na  +  3 C6H5Cl   →   As(C6H5)3  +  6 NaCl

The Community and Technical College is transitioning into the University and Technical College according to an email memo Interim Chancellor Sam Gingerich sent out Sept. 12. Along with the title change, the CTC will be offering tier one general education requirements instead of the College of Arts and Sciences.
Dean of CTC, Denise Runge, said the college's student success focused programs will only be more centralized under this new organization.
Tier one GERs include what Runge terms as fundamental skills: oral communication, writing and quantitative reasoning, which are math courses below calculus. Runge said the main difference for tier one course under this new organization will be the mode in which they're taught.
Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, John Stalvey, said conversations around moving tier one GERs to a "University College" began three years again under former Provost Bear Baker.
"They essentially decided — because they couldn't come down on one model that everyone agreed upon — to keep it the same… The bottom line is the same hasn't served our students any better today than it did three years ago," Stalvey said.
Stalvey said the purpose of this reorganization was to focus efforts on student success while integrating resources.
Runge said there will be few changes in class locations and professors, and she hopes this reorganization will bring more of the UTC to the main campus.
Runge and Stalvey are planning to have this transition ready for the fall 2018 semester.
