For Otis Sake has experienced intense growth over the past almost 2 years. We have saved hundreds of lives, we have made a difference in our community, we have formed strong bonds, we have educated others and we have learned. Oh boy, have we learned.
Our platform is unique - we do not shy away from the tough cases. We focus on rescuing from high kill rural shelters. We formed a partnership with Hospice to help place the pets of patients that are in their 11th hour. This Sanctuary will not be a "normal" shelter this will be a true transformational home for those that need us the most.
It is time. Time for us to step outside of our comfort zone. Time to spread our wings and make a leap of faith. Time for us to be an even stronger voice for those that have none.
We have found a property suitable to set up a physical location. A sanctuary where we can continue our work. A place where we can care for the animals deemed "un-adoptable" - seniors, rare and tough medical cases, palliative care. A physical location where we will have the ability and room to save more dogs and to focus on their rehabilitation.
And to do that - we need you. We need your help to secure the down payment on the property. If every single supporter on our Facebook page would donate just $10.00 - just once. We will reach our goal!!
It is time. And the dogs need you.
Please click on the below link to read more of our story, more about our dream and to make a donation. You can also donate via the DONATE button on all tabs of our website.
We love all of our supporters and know that we could not do the work we do without you! If you prefer to mail your donation please email email@example.com for our mailing address.
This guy below is just one of the senior "unadoptable" dogs that would not be here without rescue. He is our forever foster and will be a part of our family as long as we are blessed to have him. He came to us with horrible teeth (fixed), a spleen that had to be removed due to a hemangiosarcoma, allergies and a few other ailments all that have been treated. What we did not realize is how much joy and love he would bring to the FOS family. He has women that cater to him 24/7 and a social calendar that is busier than most of us. He is a mascot for a baseball team that just won districts (pics below), he is our personal mascot as well as friend to many.

Legislative leaders frustrated over slowdown on prison relocation decision
Brian Nicholson, Deseret News
SALT LAKE CITY — Legislative leaders expressed frustration Tuesday that the state's prison relocation committee has put the brakes on plans to seek bids on a new facility before the start of the 2014 Legislature.
"I'm really disappointed. I thought the Legislature was pretty clear," House Majority Leader Brad Dee, R-Odgen, said during a meeting of the Legislature's Executive Appropriations Committee.
Dee said he expected a request for bids would have been issued by now to take advantage of what he called a rapidly closing "window of opportunity" to consider moving the decades-old Utah State Prison in Draper.
But last month, members of the Prison Relocation and Development Authority voted unanimously to postpone asking for bids on building a new prison somewhere in the state.
No decision has been made by the authority about whether the prison should be relocated from the nearly 700-acre Point of the Mountain site, freeing the prime property up for development.
With construction costs and interest rates rising, Senate Majority Whip Stuart Adams, R-Layton, said the state is missing an opportunity by not going forward with the bidding process while the move is being debated.
Adams pointed out the bids would not have to be accepted by the state.
House Majority Whip Greg Hughes, R-Draper, an early supporter of looking at relocation, said the state could have chosen to surplus the site in just six months but instead established the authority so the decision would be more transparent.
Hughes said the purpose of creating the authority nearly three years ago was to "change people's hearts and minds" about the timeliness and practicality of relocating the prison.
Now, he said, he's worried that some people are suggesting the process is moving too quickly.
"We have been so open and so transparent and discussed this so long, and we've allowed the narrative that three years is hasty to somehow push this so far along that we may never come to a conclusion," Hughes said.
Rep. Brad Wilson, R-Kaysville, who serves on the authority, said he shared the concerns and estimated the cost of upgrading the Draper prison over the next decade at between $100 million to $200 million.
Wilson, the Legislature's House budget vice chairman, said a request for bids on the project was ready to go but failed to get the required signature of Gov. Gary Herbert.
Now, Wilson said, the authority intends to have a preliminary master plan for the project done by January, with a final plan completed by June. Bids for a new prison would not be sought until October 2014 and not awarded until May 2015.
Authority Chairman Lane Summerhays told the committee he hopes to have recommendations based on the preliminary master plan for lawmakers to consider next session.
Summerhays said those recommendations would likely include expanding the state prison in Gunnison, as well as contracts with county jails to house inmates. But lawmakers will have to wait until the 2015 Legislature to deal with a new prison.
Senate Minority Whip Karen Mayne, D-West Valley City, said she was glad the process has been slowed because of the lasting impact of a move on prison employees and others.
"I'm watching you because many of the people who live in my area work there," Mayne said, describing relocating the prison as much more than just constructing a new facility. "I appreciate you taking a breath."
Wilson said while he didn't want to minimize the disruption a move would have on employees, the state also has an obligation to inmates, who would benefit from a new, state-of-the-art prison.
The authority has spent about half of the $1.1 million allocated to study a move, much of it on a consultant hired to develop a master plan for housing inmates in the state. An appraisal of the Draper prison site is also underway.

The two violations in the authority's annual water quality report for 2011 were not turning monitoring reports in to the state on certain chemicals in time in the first and third quarters of the year.
Riggio said the lab where the authority took its water for review missed some chemicals it was supposed to test for.

jenimp says:
Hi casjones - On my screen the two fabrics look like a good match - a bicycle baby blanket is such a cute idea! The hex code for the dark blue in my fabric is 095a6b, if that helps - maybe you could ask candyjoyce about her blue and compare notes. I have a photo of the printed fabric and will upload that in a minute, too, to help you evaluate it.
casjones says:
Can you please tell me if this fabric would match this one? http://www.spoonflower.com/fabric/297969 we are wanting to make a baby's blanket out of the two pieces and want to be sure they coordinate. Thanks!

Ke$ha Takes No. 1 Spot of Hot 200 From Susan Boyle
As it was predicted earlier, Ke$ha indeed replaces Susan Boyle on the top spot of Billboard Hot 200 this week. Her first studio album "Animal" opens with 152,000 copies, forcing Susan's "I Dreamed a Dream" to fall to No. 2 with 93,000 (down 32%) after a six-week run at the top.
"THIS morning, thanks to all my fans, I TRULYYYY woke up feeling like P. Diddy with a #1 album!!!!!" Ke$ha told MTV. "Hollerrr!! I want to thank everyone who bought a copy of 'Animal', and I can't wait to see you on the road!!!! WOW!"
Beside sitting at No. 1 on Billboard Hot 200, Ke$ha also successfully extends her reign on Billboard Hot 100 with "Tik Tok" and claims the No. 7 position with "Blah Blah Blah". Moreover, she secures the top two slots of Digital Songs chart. "Blah Blah Blah" which features 3OH!3 debuts at No. 2, while "Tik Tok" stays at No. 1.
Ke$ha becomes the first artist to simultaneously have her debut album and single sitting at No. 1 on the U.S. Albums and Singles charts since Leona Lewis led the lists with "Bleeding Love" and "Spirit" in 2008. In addition, she becomes the first artist to ever hold the top two slots on Digital Songs chart with her first two singles since Black Eyed Peas did so with "Boom Boom Pow" and "I Gotta Feeling" in July 2009.
Back on Hot 200, Ke$ha's "Animal" is the only new entry on the chart. The others sitting at the Top 10 is ranging from Lady GaGa's "The Fame" at No. 3, Alicia Keys' "The Element of Freedom" at No. 4 and Mary J. Blige's "Stronger With Each Tear" rounding up the Top 5.
Top 10 of Billboard Hot 200:
- "Animal" - Ke$ha
- "I Dreamed a Dream" - Susan Boyle
- "The Fame" - Lady GaGa
- "The Element of Freedom" - Alicia Keys
- "Stronger With Each Tear" - Mary J. Blige

Light as subject
Light as subject
You can't hear it enough, so I am going to say it again, all photos begin with light. Good light will take an otherwise boring scene and give you a great photo. With bad light, it doesn't matter how interesting your subject is, you're going to have a hard time coming back with good results. I want you to try a very different type of exercise now. I want you to go out and shoot pictures with the idea of light itself as your subject. In other words, I want you to go out and look for interesting plays of light, an interesting splash of light, interesting contrast in light and shadow.
Maybe a glint of light off of the highlight of something, anything that looks like an interesting play of illumination, I want you to try working that shot and turning it into an image. This is a great exercise. It's a really valuable exercise to come back to lot, for a couple of different reasons. First of all, with light as subject, you will begin to understand that whatever light is bouncing ...

Skill Level Intermediate
Here is one more small change to the OS X Dock. I am going to open up the Dock's preferences by right-clicking on the divider and choosing Dock Preferences. Of course, you can also get here by going through System Preferences too. Now the Preferences here in Snow Leopard are nearly identical to the ones found in Leopard, but there is one new check box labeled 'Minimize Windows into Application icon'. Now normally when you minimize windows they get sucked down into the right side of the Dock, so let me just show you that real quick.
You can see they are sitting there down there in the Dock. I'm actually going to keep the Dock visible, so we can see this. To get back your minimized windows you just mouse over them, find the one you want and click it. But if you are in the habit of minimizing a lot of windows you know how quickly your Dock can get cluttered with minimized windows making your icons all smaller, so you might want to try checking 'Minimize Windows into Application Icon.' Now when I minimize a window it gets sucked not to the right side of the dock, but behind or into its application icon.
So as I continue to minimize my Safari windows they are going right into the Safari icon. They essentially disappear leaving your Dock uncluttered. To get them back I just right-click the Application icon which gives me a list of all the minimized windows, and you can tell which ones are minimized by the little Diamond icon next to them, and by selecting them, they come right back. There you have another small but useful new feature found in Snow Leopard.

Taco Mac, 423 Market St., closed in July for expansion and remodeling and re-opened in August as T.MAC - the nickname given to the restaurant by its customers.
The space was nearly doubled and now has the capacity to seat 270. HD TV's are placed side by side around the room for optimal viewing of sports from every seat. Along with the remodeled space also came additional choices of craft beer on tap with 96 available along with bottled beer. The food side of the menu was upgraded with additional items added that were created by Corporate Chef Christian Messier from the company's home office in Atlanta.
Chef Messier and Chief Marketing Officer Tony Dammicci hosted Taste of T.MAC that presented a sampling of the new food offerings. All breads and desserts are made in house at the company's own bake shop in Atlanta and sent to Chattanooga three times a week.
There is a selection of appetizers designed for sharing and the addition of four flatbreads with a variety of different toppings.
The restaurant's traditional Buffalo wings come prepared eight ways, each distinctively different. From sweet hickory barbecue and lemon pepper sauces the choices range through a variety of spicy flavors from medium to a new recipe referred to as "Death," that was created from a mixture of unique peppers. Some of these are available in a roasted version with one third the calories of the traditional recipes. Also new are fried chicken tenders with homemade ranch or blue cheese dressing.
Along with the other half pound burgers is the new Mushroom Steak Burger that is topped with roasted whole mushrooms, bacon and Swiss cheese and is available in beef or turkey. All burgers come on homemade brioche buns.
Topping the list of new side dishes that are available is a baked macaroni and cheese made from a blend of different cheeses, broccoli queso casserole, green beans and seasoned, roasted whole button mushrooms.
These new items join the previous menu of salads, soups, traditional Mexican dishes, sandwiches, wraps and sweets.

iterate function, but of course that uses recursion, so…?) Unfortunately, that was in January, it is now July, and I don't really remember how it works. So I decided I had better write about it now, before I forget even more about how it works.
A comma-free code is a set of strings such that if you concatenate any two strings in , the result does not contain any elements of as internal substrings. The term "comma-free" refers to the fact that sequences of strings from can be unambiguously concatenated, without the need for separators like commas. Even if you start reading somewhere in the middle of a message, you can unambiguously figure out how to partition the message into codewords. For example, {
like} is a comma-free code, but {
earl} is not, since
bearlike contains
earl as a substring. A comma-free code also obviously cannot contain any periodic strings (that is, strings which consist of repeated copies of some shorter string), like
abcabc, since concatenating such a string with itself produces a string containing the same string as an internal prefix.
Given a fixed alphabet and codeword length, one is naturally led to ask how large a comma-free code can possibly be. Eastman solved this problem for odd codeword lengths, by showing how to construct a maximal commafree code. To understand Eastman's solution, consider the set of all aperiodic strings of length over an alphabet (we have already seen that periodic strings cannot be part of a comma-free code). Consider two strings equivalent if they are rotations of each other. For example,
arbe, and
rbea are all equivalent. This is an equivalence relation on strings, and so it defines a partition of into classes of equivalent strings. Note that we can never have two equivalent strings as part of the same comma-free code, since if we concatenate a string with itself, the result contains all other equivalent strings as substrings. For example,
bearbear contains
arbe, and
rbea. So at most a comma-free code could contain one string from each equivalence class.
In fact, Eastman shows that for odd there are comma-free codes that contain exactly one string from each equivalence class! What's more, his proof is constructive: he shows how to pick a particular, canonical representative from each equivalence class such that the collection of all such canonical representatives is a comma-free code. This is what the program below does: given an odd-length string, it outputs the canonical rotation of that string which is part of a maximal comma-free code.
So, without further ado, let's see the implementation! Again, I really don't remember much about the details of how (much less why) this works. For that, I recommend watching Knuth's lecture or reading the explanations in his code (you'll probably want to compile it into LaTeX first).
First, some imports and such. Look, ma, no LANGUAGE extensions!
> module Commafree where
> import Control.Arrow (first)
> import Control.Monad (when)
> import Data.List (findIndex, intercalate)
> import Data.List.Split
> import Data.Maybe (catMaybes)
> import Data.Monoid ((<>))
> import System.Environment
> import System.Exit
> import Text.Printf
> import Text.Read (readMaybe)
Here's the main Eastman algorithm, which actually works for any list of things with a total order (unlike Knuth's, which only works for lists of nonnegative integers, although that is obviously just a cosmetic difference, since any finite set with a total order is isomorphic to a set of nonnegative integers). We turn each item into a singleton "block", then iterate the
eastmanRound function, which partitions the blocks into subsequences of blocks, which we coalesce into blocks again. So each iteration makes the partition coarser, i.e. the blocks get bigger. We keep iterating until there is only one block left, which contains the rotation that we seek.
> eastman :: Ord a => [a] -> [a]
> eastman
> = blockContent . head . head
> . dropWhile ((>1) . length)
> . iterate (map mconcat . eastmanRound)
> . map mkBlock
Some code for dealing with blocks. A block is just a list that keeps track of its length for efficiency. The important point about blocks is that they are ordered first by length, then lexicographically (see the
Ord instance below). The
Monoid instance is straightforward.
> data Block a = Block { blockLen :: !Int, blockContent :: [a] }
> deriving (Show, Eq)
> instance Ord a => Ord (Block a) where
> compare (Block m as) (Block n bs)
> = compare m n <> compare as bs
> instance Monoid (Block a) where
> mempty = Block 0 []
> mappend (Block m as) (Block n bs) = Block (m+n) (as ++ bs)
> mkBlock :: a -> Block a
> mkBlock a = Block 1 [a]
One round of the algorithm works as follows: we duplicate the list, partition it after each "dip" (
chop splitDip, to be explained below), possibly drop some of the leading parts and coalesce other parts based on size parity (
pickOdds), and then keep only a total amount of stuff equal to the length of the original list (
takeTotal). This last part with
takeTotal ensures that we will end up with something which is a rotation of the original input (though partitioned). In an implementation with random-access arrays, one would just wrap the indices around using mod; in this context it's easier to first duplicate the input list so we can deal with all rotations at once, determine which rotation we want by dropping some stuff from the beginning, then drop any excess stuff at the end.
> eastmanRound :: Ord a => [a] -> [[a]]
> eastmanRound as
> = takeTotal (length as)
> . pickOdds
> . chop splitDip
> $ (as ++ as)
It's interesting to note that in
eastmanRound the type
a is actually going to be instantiated with
Block b for some type
b. In the first round, all the blocks are singletons, so this is no different than just taking a list of
b. But in subsequent rounds the distinction is nontrivial.
A "dip" is a decreasing substring followed by a single increase, for example, 976325. (Though again, remember that we are actually dealing with sequences of blocks, not integers, so a dip is essentially a sequence of blocks of decreasing length followed by a longer one, with the requisite caveat about blocks of the same length.)
splitDip looks for the first place in the list that looks like and breaks the list right after it. This is used with the
chop function to split the list into a sequence of dips.
> splitDip :: Ord a => [a] -> ([a],[a])
> splitDip (a:b:cs)
> | a < b = ([a,b], cs)
> | otherwise = first (a:) (splitDip (b:cs))
> splitDip as = (as,[])
pickOdds does something like the following: it looks for maximal sequences of dips where the first dip has odd length and the rest have even length, and merges such sequences into one long partition. It also drops everything prior to the first odd dip. Something like that at least; my memory on this is a bit fuzzy.
> pickOdds :: [[a]] -> [[a]]
> pickOdds
> = map concat
> . dropWhile (even . length . head)
> . drop 1
> . splitAtOdds
> splitAtOdds :: [[a]] -> [[[a]]]
> splitAtOdds = chop $
> \(x:xs) -> let (ys,zs) = break (odd.length) xs
> in (x:ys, zs)
takeTotal just takes lists until their total length matches the given total.
> takeTotal :: Int -> [[a]] -> [[a]]
> takeTotal _ [] = []
> takeTotal n _ | n <= 0 = []
> takeTotal n (xs:xss) = xs : takeTotal (n - length xs) xss
And that's it! I also put together a
main which more or less emulates what Knuth's C program does. My program and Knuth's give the same output on every example I have tried (except that Knuth's prints out some intermediate information about each iteration step; mine just prints the final answer).
> main :: IO ()
> main = do
> progName <- getProgName

This fall, I will be teaching an undergraduate course on programming languages. It's eminently sensible to ask a new hire to take on a course in their specialty, and one might think I would be thrilled. But in a way, I am dreading it.
It's my own fault, really. In my hubris, I have decided that I don't like the ways that PL courses are typically taught. So this summer I have to buckle down and actually design the course I do want to teach. It's not that I'm dreading the course itself, but rather the amount of work it will take to create it!
I'm not a big fan of the sort of "survey of programming languages" course that gets taught a lot, where you spend three or four weeks on each of three or four different languages. I am not sure that students really learn much from the experience (though I would be happy to hear any reports to the contrary). At best it feels sort of like making students "eat their vegetables"—it's not much fun but it will make them grow big and strong in some general sense.1 It's unlikely that students will ever use the surveyed languages again. You might hope that students will think to use the surveyed languages later in their career because they were exposed to them in the course; but I doubt it, because three or four weeks is hardly enough to get any real sense for a language and where it might be useful. I think the only real argument for this sort of course is that it "exposes students to new ways of thinking". While that is certainly true, and exposing students to new ways of thinking is important—essentially every class should be doing it, in one way or another—I think there are better ways to go about it.
In short, I want to design a course that will not only expose students to new ideas and ways of thinking, but will also give them some practical skills that they might actually use in their career. I started by considering the question: what does the field of programming languages uniquely have to offer to students that is both intellecually worthwhile (by my own standards) and valuable to them? Specifically, I want to consider students who go on to do something other than be an academic in PL: what do I want the next generation of software developers and academics in other fields to understand about programming languages?
A lightbulb finally turned on for me when I realized that while the average software developer will probably never use, say, Prolog, they almost certainly will develop a domain-specific language at some point—quite possibly without even realizing they are doing it! In fact, if we include embedded domain-specific languages, then in essence, anyone developing any API at all is creating a language. Even if you don't want to extend the idea of "embedded domain-specific language" quite that far, the point is that the tools and ideas of language design are widely applicable. Giving students practice designing and implementing languages will make them better programmers.
So I want my course to focus on language design, encompassing both big ideas (type systems, semantics) as well as concrete tools (parsing, ASTs, type checking, interpreters). We will use a functional programming language (specifically, Haskell) for several reasons: to expose the students to a programming paradigm very different from the languages they already know (mainly Java and Python); because FP languages make a great platform for starting to talk about types; and because FP languages also make a great platform for building language-related tools like parsers, type checkers, etc. and for building embedded domain-specific languages. Notably, however, we will only use Haskell: though we will probably study other types of languages, we will ues Haskell as a medium for our study, e.g. by implementing simplified versions of them in Haskell. So while the students will be exposed to a number of ideas there is really only one concrete language they will be exposed to. The hope is that by working in a single language all semester, the students may actually end up with enough experience in the language that they really do go on to use it again later.
As an aside, an interesting challenge/opportunity comes from the fact that approximately half the students in the class will have already taken my functional programming class this past spring, and will therefore be familiar with Haskell. On the challenge side, how do I teach Haskell to the other half of the class without boring the half that already knows it? Part of the answer might lie in emphasis: I will be highlighting very different aspects of the language from those I covered in my FP course, though of course there will necessarily be overlap. On the opportunity side, however, I can also ask: how can I take advantage of the fact that half the class will already know Haskell? For example, can I design things in such a way that they help the other half of the class get up to speed more quickly?
In any case, here's my current (very!) rough outline for the semester:
My task for the rest of the summer is to develop a more concrete curriculum, and to design some projects. This will likely be a project-based course, where the majority of the points will be concentrated in a few big projects—partly because the nature of the course lends itself well to larger projects, and partly to keep me sane (I will be teaching two other courses at the same time, and having lots of small assignments constantly due is like death by a thousand cuts).
I would love feedback of any kind. Do you think this is a great idea, or a terrible one? Have you, or anyone you know of, ever run a similar course? Do you have any appropriate assignments you'd like to share with me?
Actually, I love vegetables, but anyway.↩
The main motivation for writing the page is to explain the (to my knowledge, novel) Möbius method for printing and reading double-sided, like this:
I actually now use this in practice. As compared to the usual method of printing double-sided, this has several advantages:
But there are even new things to say about traditional double-sided printing, as well. I now know of several different algorithms for reading double-sided, each with its pros and cons; previously I had not even considered that there might be more than one way to do it.
First, what is Beeminder? Here's what I wrote three and a half years ago, which I think is still a good description:
The basic idea is that it helps you keep track of progress on any quantifiable goals, and gives you short-term incentive to stay on track: if you don't, Beeminder takes your money. But it's not just about the fear of losing money. Shiny graphs tracking your progress coupled with helpfully concrete short-term goals ("today you need to write 1.3 pages of that paper") make for excellent positive motivation, too.
The key property that makes Beeminder work so well for me is that it makes long-term goals into short-term ones. I am a terrible procrastinator—due to hyperbolic discounting I can be counted on to pretty much ignore anything with long-term rewards or consequences. A vague sense that I ought to take better care of my bike is not enough to compel me to action in the present; but "inflate your tires and grease your chain before midnight or else pay $5" is.
So, what have I accomplished over the past three years?
There are lots of other things I use Beeminder for, but these are the accomplishments I am proudest of. If you want to do awesome things but can never quite seem to find the time or motivation to do them, give it a try!
Several commenters pointed out the connection to Bayesian networks. I think they are right, and the network reliability problem is a very special case of Bayesian inference. However, so far this hasn't seemed to help very much, since the things I can find about algorithms for Bayesian inference are either too general (e.g. allowing arbitrary functions at nodes) or too specific (e.g. only working for certain kinds of trees). So I'm going to put aside Bayesian inference for now; perhaps later I can come back to it.
In any case, Derek Elkins also made a comment which pointed to exactly what I wanted to talk about next.
Consider the related problem of computing the reliability of the single most reliable path from to in a network. This is really just a disguised version of the shortest path problem, so one can solve it using Dijkstra's algorithm. But I want to discuss a more general way to think about solving it, using the theory of star semirings. Recall that a semiring is a set with two associative binary operations, "addition" and "multiplication", which is a commutative monoid under addition, a monoid under multiplication, and where multiplication distributes over addition and . A star semiring is a semiring with an additional operation satisfying . Intuitively, (though can still be well-defined even when this infinite sum is not; we can at least say that if the infinite sum is defined, they must be equal). If is a star semiring, then the semiring of matrices over is also a star semiring; for details see Dolan (2013), O'Connor (2011), Penaloza (2005), and Lehmann (1977). In particular, there is a very nice functional algorithm for computing , with time complexity (Dolan 2013). (Of course, this is slower than Dijkstra's algorithm, but unlike Dijkstra's algorithm it also works for finding shortest paths in the presence of negative edge weights—in which case it is essentially the Floyd-Warshall algorithm.)
Now, given a graph and labelling , define the adjacency matrix to be the matrix of edge probabilities, that is, . Let be the star semiring of probabilities under maximum and multiplication (where , since ). Then we can solve the single most reliable path problem by computing over this semiring, and finding the largest entry. If we want to find the actual most reliable path, and not just its reliability, we can instead work over the semiring , i.e. probabilities paired with paths. You might enjoy working out what the addition, multiplication, and star operations should be, or see O'Connor (2011).
In fact, as shown by O'Connor and Dolan, there are many algorithms that can be recast as computing the star of a matrix, for an appropriate choice of semiring: for example, (reflexive-)transitive closure; all-pairs shortest paths; Gaussian elimination; dataflow analysis; and solving certain knapsack problems. One might hope that there is similarly an appropriate semiring for the network reliability problem. But I have spent some time thinking about this and I do not know of one.
Consider again the simple example given at the start of the previous post:
For this example, we computed the reliability of the network to be , by computing the probability of the upper path, , and the lower path, , and then combining them as , the probability of success on either path less the double-counted probability of simultaneous success on both.
Inspired by this example, one thing we might try would be to define operations and . But when we go to check the semiring laws, we run into a problem: distributivity does not hold! , but . The problem is that the addition operation implicitly assumes that the events with probabilities and are independent: otherwise the probability that they both happen is not actually equal to . The events with probabilities and , however, are not independent. In graph terms, they represent two paths with a shared subpath. In fact, our example computation at the beginning of the post was only correct since the two paths from to were completely independent.
We can at least compute the reliability of series-parallel graphs whose terminals correspond with and :
In the second case, having a parallel composition of graphs ensures that there are no shared edges between them, so and are indeed independent.
Of course, many interesting graphs are not series-parallel. The simplest graph for which the above does not work looks like this:
Suppose all the edges have probability . Can you find the reliability of this network?

This morning Kenny Foner pointed out to me this tweet by Gabriel Gonzales, asking why there isn't a default
Arbitrary instance for types implementing
Generic. It reminded me that I've been meaning for a while now (years, in fact!) to get around to packaging up some code that does this.
As several pointed out on Twitter, this seems obvious, but it isn't. It's easy to write a generic
Arbitrary instance, but hard to write one that generates a good distribution of values. The basic idea is clear: randomly pick a constructor, and then recursively generate random subtrees. The problem is that this is very likely to either blow up and generate gigantic (even infinite) trees, or to generate almost all tiny trees, or both. I wrote a post about this three years ago which illustrates the problem. It also explains half of the solution: generate random trees with a target size in mind, and throw out any which are not within some epsilon of the target size (crucially, stopping the generation early as soon as the tree being generated gets too big).
However, I never got around to explaining the other half of the solution: it's crucially important to use the right probabilities when picking a constructor. With the wrong probabilities, you will spend too much time generating trees that are either too small or too big. The surprising thing is that with exactly the right probabilities, you can expect to wait only time before generating a tree of size (approximately1) .2
So, how does one pick the right probabilities? Essentially, you turn the generic description of your data type into a mutually recursive system of generating functions, and (numerically) find their radii of convergence, when thought of as functions in the complex plane. Using these values it is straightforward to compute the right probabilities to use. For the intrepid, this is explained in Duchon et. al3.
I have some old Haskell code from Alexis Darrasse which already does a bunch of the work. It would have to be updated a bit to work with modern libraries and with
GHC.Generics, and packaged up to go on Hackage. I won't really have time to work on this until the summer—but if anyone else is interested in working on this, let me know! I'd be happy to send you the code and provide some guidance in figuring it out.
The constant factor depends on how approximate you are willing to be.↩
I wanted to put an exclamation point at the end of that sentence, because this is really surprising. But it looked like factorial. So, here is the exclamation point: !↩

The story of the American civil rights movement is told through its powerful music -- the freedom songs that protesters sang on picket lines, in mass meetings, in police wagons, and in jail cells as they fought for justice and equality. A unique mix of historical documentary and contemporary musical performance, the film features new performances by top artists including John Legend, Joss Stone, Wyclef Jean, and The Roots; riveting archival footage; and interviews with civil rights foot soldiers and leaders, including Congressman John Lewis, Harry Belafonte, Julian Bond, Andrew Young and dozens more.
Soundtrack for a Revolution tells the story of the American civil rights movement through its powerful music -- the freedom songs that protesters sang on picket lines, in mass meetings, in police wagons, and in jail cells as they fought for justice and equality. A unique mix of historical documentary and contemporary musical performance, the film features new performances by top artists including John Legend, Joss Stone, Wyclef Jean, and The Roots; riveting archival footage; and interviews with civil rights foot soldiers and leaders, including Congressman John Lewis, Harry Belafonte, Julian Bond, Andrew Young, and dozens more.
The freedom songs that propelled the civil rights movement -- from the Montgomery bus boycott to lunch counter sit-ins, from Birmingham to the march on Washington and to Selma -- evolved from slave chants, from the labor movement, and especially from the black church. They enabled blacks to sing words they could not say, and were crucial in helping the civil rights activists as they faced down brutal aggression with dignity and non-violence. The film weaves together contemporary performances of such timeless songs as "Eyes on the Prize," "Wade in the Water," and "We Shall Overcome," with heart-wrenching interviews and dramatic footage from the front lines of the fight for freedom.
Soundtrack for a Revolution celebrates the vitality of the freedom songs and explores how these simple but stirring anthems had the power to sustain the movement during its darkest hours. The film tracks the progress of the civil rights movement from its regional non-violent beginnings in Alabama in the mid-1950s, to its ultimately successful campaign of national unity in the 1960s. Led and organized by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and student leaders, the civil rights movement's spiritual and moral elements were embodied in the songs sung and chanted on the movement's many stages. The old spirituals not only unified African-Americans during marches and individual acts of protest, but they also influenced the language of the civil rights movement itself. "It was the music that gave us the drive, the will, to go on, in spite of it all," explained former student movement leader and Congressman John Lewis.
After the December 1, 1955 arrest of Rosa Parks for refusing to remove herself from the 'whites only' section of a segregated bus, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was tasked with coordinating a formal Montgomery Bus Boycott. King encouraged followers to take non-violent action by evoking imagery found in historical songs like "Wade in the Water." Although the song was first sung by American slaves fleeing to the north in the late 19th century, its meaning encouraged boycotters to believe in the strength of their mission. Reverend Harold Middlebrook described the timelessness of African American protest songs by saying, "You take that which has expressed your inner most feelings over centuries and use it as the vehicle, the tool, to express where you are and the oppression and the suffering that you feel at this given time."
Throughout the civil rights movement activists expressed their own feeling of discontent with racist government policies and flagrant bigotry through song: as civil rights leaders continued to preach non-violence and organize peaceful lunch counter sit-ins across the South, there was Guy and Candie Carawan's "I'm Going to sit at the Welcome Table"; during the tumultuous 1961 Freedom Rides, the verse of "Ain't Gonna Let Nobody Turn Me Round"; amidst the 1963 March on Washington and the March from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama in 1965, the triumphant words to "We Shall Overcome." Even after Martin Luther King's assassination in 1968, mourners found comfort in the songs of the revolution. As they marched with his casket down the streets of Atlanta, Dr. King's supporters sang all of the songs that had inspired the civil rights movement, giving them the courage to challenge the status quo and the drive to keep fighting for equality in America.

How best to capture the mirrored, tortured psyches of Victor Frankenstein and his Creature within 61 brief seconds? National Theatre Live's Frankenstein trailer intercuts dialogue between Jonny Lee Miller and Benedict Cumberbatch in a snippet showcasing both actors in both roles. A difficult feat within such a short time frame—but the trailer allows discerning viewers to better understand Miller's and Cumberbatch's embodiment of each role. Nuanced speech, an abortive twist or stretch, morphing faces, flashes of insight—based on evidence in this trailer, it's no wonder the play has become London's hottest ticket. Although reviews based on preview performances have been mixed, reviews of the official opening (on February 22 and 23, to allow reviewers and audiences to see each actor playing both roles over the course of two nights) should soon indicate if preview problems were resolved. Based on even this brief trailer, whether the play is brilliant or flawed, director Danny Boyle's, playwright Nick Dear's, and the actors' Creation is a worthy experiment.

Dive right in! The luxury £9m Marbella holiday villa with a stunning GLASS-BOTTOM infinity pool built on its ROOF
With a glass-bottomed swimming pool perched high up on its roof, this is a one-of-a-kind villa.
With a £9m price tag, the Marbella property, dubbed the Jellyfish House, boasts a nine-metre infinity pool, with views stretching across the Mediterranean.
The location of the infinity-edge pool means the beach and the ocean can always be seen.
And relax... The nine-metre-long infinity pool has a glass bottom and a sunbathing area underneath
Stunning design: The pool on top of a £9m Marbella holiday villa has glass sides and floor
Pool with a view: The villa was designed by international architecture firm Wiel Arets Architects
The architects of this stunning Spanish villa in the popular tourist destination decided to plant the pool on top of the sun-soaked property.
Located in the upmarket region of Los Monteros, the avant garde property is a private holiday house with a sunbathing area underneath the roof-top pool.
From the pool, guests at the villa in the south of Spain can soak in a panoramic view, which includes the Sierra Blanca mountain range in the distance.
Groundbreaking design: The pool has been cantilevered to the roof so the beach and sea can always be seen while swimming
Gorgeous views: The Sierra Blanca mountain range can be seen in the distance from the luxury pool
Infinity edge: The glass-bottom pool boasts stunning views across the Mediterranean
Designed by international architecture firm Wiel Arets Architects, the house - nick named the Jellyfish House - was completed in 2013.
The pool, which weighs nearly 60,000kg, has a glass-bottom floor and a panoramic window at its interior facing edge, both of which are 6cm thick.
The searing Spanish sun constantly filters through the pool's glass wall and floor, creating ripples of iridescent turquoise reflections throughout the entire house.
Making a splash: The infinity pool has been built on top of a luxury villa in Marbella
Holiday home: The private property is based in the popular tourist destination of Marbella in Spain
Holiday heaven: The roof-top pool boasts stunning views with a sunbathing area underneath
Submerged guests can indicate their lunch order by swimming by the pool's window that allows a glimpse into the kitchen.
The villa, with its five bedrooms across four levels, also features a small service elevator that allows for food and drink to be brought from the kitchen to the rooftop pool and terrace.
Kevin Welch, Sales and Listing Agent at Lucas Fox International Properties, Marbella says: 'The area of Los Monteros is without doubt the most prestigious area of East Marbella, owing to its close proximity to the five-star Los Monteros Hotel and its beautiful stretch of beach offering views as far afield as Gibraltar and North Africa.
'Average asking prices in that area are over 6.5 million euros.
'For something as unique as this however I would estimate it to around 11 million euros.'
