About this book
This book presents methods for computing correlation equations. All the topics treated hefe are eluci dated in terms of concrete examples, which have been chosen, for the most part, from the Held of analysis of the mechanical properties of steel, wood, and other materials. A necessary prerequisite for any study of correlation equations is so me knowledge of the moments of random variables. In the Appendix, there is provided a brief treatment of moments, as well as a discussion of the simplest methods of computing them. We have paid particular attention in this book to the techniques of computing correlation equations, and to the use of tables for alleviating the computationalload. The mathematical bases of the methods used in setting up correlation equations are expounded in the books cited at the end of this volume. A. M. December 1965 PIe ase note that the abbreviation 19 is used in this book to designate the logarithm to base ten, Note further that the comma has been retained as the decimal point in tabular material.

Lexington Medical Center Offers Free Lecture On Strokes
Jul 17, 2018 09:38AM
By Kathleen Maris
Lexington Medical Center will present a free lecture on Monday, August 6 at 6:00 p.m. inside Lexington Medical Park 1 at 2728 Sunset Boulevard on the hospital campus in West Columbia. It's called "Stroke Can Strike at Any Age: Think FAST for Signs of Stroke." Katherine W. Dahlberg, MD, a physician at Southeastern Neurology & Memory Clinic, a Lexington Medical Center physician practice, will be the speaker.
According to the American Heart Association, about 795,000 people have a stroke every year, and about 140,000 people will die due to a stroke. Nearly 75 percent of strokes occur in individuals over the age of 65. While stroke accounts for one of every 19 deaths in the United States, there are several behaviors that can reduce the risk of stroke.
Dahlberg earned her medical degree from the University of South Carolina School of Medicine in Columbia. She then completed her neurology residency at USC, where she also served as chief resident. Dahlberg is a member of the American Academy of Neurology with certifications in advanced cardiac and basic life support, as well as Allergan Botox training. She provides comprehensive care for disorders of the nervous system at Southeastern Neurology & Memory Clinic.
Lexington Medical Center's physician lecture series is free and open to the public. Light refreshments will be served. For more information, visit LexMed.com/classes-events.

HARRISON TOWNSHIP/MOUNT CLEMENS — Members of the Harrison Township Board of Trustees on Nov. 26 voted unanimously to opt out of allowing recreational marijuana establishments to open for business in the community.
The vote came just over a week before recreational marijuana became legal in Michigan on Dec. 6, following voter approval during the general election.
"Having this done and in effect, we're meeting that deadline and can move forward in a thoughtful and considerate way," said Harrison Township Clerk Adam Wit.
On Dec. 6, adults 21 and older became able to legally possess, cultivate and consume marijuana, however, recreational marijuana cannot be purchased just yet; it could take up to a year for state legislators and businesses to figure out the licensing aspect.
According to the Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs, any business that sells recreational marijuana would be licensed by the state, and communities were granted the ability to decide if they want to allow these businesses in their municipality or township.
The timeframe for when businesses could obtain such a license remains unclear.
Township Supervisor Ken Verkest noted that the vote by the board is just a "short-term opt out while we wait for the dust to settle."
"Our peer communities have taken similar action," Verkest said. "We need to have some thoughtful consideration. This subject deserves the same amount of time as medical marijuana.
"The fact that we're taking this action doesn't mean we're opting out forever," he continued. "But there were some concerns that if we didn't take action, there was a potential for grandfathering; someone might come in and apply (for a business license) and we would have to accept (the proposal)."
The recent statewide vote also allows adults 21 and older to grow no more than 12 plants at their home, or more if one has a license to do so.
The different license types are: marijuana retailer; marijuana safety compliance facility; marijuana secure transporter; marijuana processor; marijuana microbusiness; Class A marijuana grower, authorizing cultivation of not more than 100 marijuana plants; Class B marijuana grower, authorizing the cultivation of not more than 500 marijuana plants; and Class C marijuana grower, authorizing the cultivation of not more than 2,000 marijuana plants.
Mount Clemens Mayor Barb Dempsey said the City Commission will be discussing recreational marijuana during its Dec. 17 meeting. She expects that the commission will vote to opt out as well.

Forming the Future: St. Michael School, North Andover, engages students, families in STEM challenges
Pre-K student at St. Michael School, North Andover, Jack McCarthy poses with his project for the school's November engineering challenge to construct a prototype of a balloon for the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Pilot photo/courtesy St. Michael School
Help us expand our reach! Please share this article
NORTH ANDOVER -- St. Michael School has introduced a new way to get students interested in STEM subjects -- Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math -- at a young age, while also giving their families a way to feel engaged with their children's curriculum and connected to the wider school community.
Each month, the students' families receive a flyer from teacher Sandra Bryant about an optional engineering challenge. The flyer specifies what materials can be used and includes a recommendation for a book that relates to the challenge.
These monthly engineering challenges are not graded, and are meant to be suitable for all students -- from pre-K through eighth grade.
"It depends on the challenge, but everybody steps it up to their grade level," Bryant said, speaking to The Pilot on Jan. 22.
Bryant has been a teacher for 24 years, four of them at St. Michael School. She currently teaches fifth- and sixth-grade math as well as an engineering class there.
The challenges that Bryant devises usually have something to do with the month in which they are issued. For example, in November, she challenged students to create a prototype of a parade balloon, like those in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. The December challenge was to build a chair for an Elf on the Shelf out of a cereal box. In January, the challenge was to build a catapult that could launch marshmallows into a cup for hot chocolate.
"It gets your creative juices flowing!" said fifth-grade student Maya Tourkantonis, who completed the Elf on a Shelf chair challenge in December.
Bryant said it is "amazing how creative kids can be when you give them just a little bit of information. That's what I love about STEM, because everyone is different, and it shows the kids that it's okay to be different, not everyone has to have the same."
Families who attempt the challenges can send Bryant pictures or videos of themselves completing the challenge, which she then shares through the school's social media sites.
Bryant said she got the idea for the monthly engineering challenges after seeing the success of St. Michael School's STEM night at the beginning of the current academic year. The event, held last October, was attended by over 300 families.
"When I put together a STEM night and we saw how many younger kids were interested, (we thought) 'Okay, let's catch them early on.' In the future they're going to need these skills to do the jobs that they need. So the earlier we can teach them, I think, the easier it's going to be for them," Bryant said.
She said the teachers have also been taking part in professional development to learn how to integrate religion into different subjects and show how they are connected.
"All the teachers have an interest in showing the kids how everything is related through each subject ... kids say 'I don't understand how math and social studies work together.' But now our goal is to show them that connection, and the more you can show them that connection, then everything's not in isolation," Bryant said.
Students in grades five through eight take an engineering enrichment class, in which "they get to do those activities in school that bring the math and science and religion and all the pieces together."
"We want to build that from the ground up and show these little kids what they can do in this problem-solving world," Bryant said.

Addressing same-origin policy limitations in Office Add-ins
The same-origin policy enforced by the browser prevents a script loaded from one domain from getting or manipulating properties of a webpage from another domain. This means that, by default, the domain of a requested URL must be the same as the domain of the current webpage. For example, this policy will prevent a webpage in one domain from making XmlHttpRequest web-service calls to a domain other than the one where it is hosted.
Because Office Add-ins are hosted in a browser control, the same-origin policy applies to script running in their web pages as well.
The same-origin policy can be an unnecessary handicap in many situations, such as when a web application hosts content and APIs across multiple subdomains. There are a few common techniques for securely overcoming same-origin policy enforcement. This article can only provide the briefest introduction to some of them. Please use the links provided to get started in your research of these techniques.
Use JSONP for anonymous access
One way to overcome same-origin policy limitations is to use JSONP to provide a proxy for the web service. You do this by including a
script tag with a
src attribute that points to some script hosted on any domain. You can programmatically create the
script tags, dynamically create the URL to point the
src attribute to, and then pass parameters to the URL via URI query parameters. Web service providers create and host JavaScript code at specific URLs, and return different scripts depending on the URI query parameters. These scripts then execute where they are inserted and work as expected.
The following is an example of JSONP that uses a technique that will work in any Office Add-in.
// Dynamically create an HTML SCRIPT element that obtains the details for the specified video.
function loadVideoDetails(videoIndex) {
// Dynamically create a new HTML SCRIPT element in the webpage.
var script = document.createElement("script");
// Specify the URL to retrieve the indicated video from a feed of a current list of videos,
// as the value of the src attribute of the SCRIPT element.
script.setAttribute("src", "https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos/" +
videos[videoIndex].Id + "?alt=json-in-script&callback=videoDetailsLoaded");
// Insert the SCRIPT element at the end of the HEAD section.
Implement server-side code using a token-based authorization scheme
Another way to address same-origin policy limitations is to provide server-side code that uses OAuth 2.0 flows to enable one domain to get authorized access to resources hosted on another.
Use cross-origin resource sharing (CORS)
For an example of using the cross-origin resource sharing feature of XmlHttpRequest2, see the "Cross Origin Resource Sharing (CORS)" section of New Tricks in XMLHttpRequest2.
Build your own proxy using IFRAME and POST MESSAGE (Cross-Window Messaging)
For an example of how to build your own proxy using IFRAME and POST MESSAGE, see Cross-Window Messaging.

Adopting a pet for the first time can be tricky. Especially if you want to adopt a bird like cockatiel, before you can do much about it, you will have to be able to gain the trust of your cockatiel to get advantages of keeping cockatiel.
Since bird is not like human and you cannot possibly understand it in an instant, there are some effective ways to get your cockatiel to trust you. Those are simple steps in which you do not have to worry if it will fail miserably. Even though they do need effort, it is never a waste to try the ways explained below.
Effective Ways to Get Your Cockatiel to Trust You
Here are some effective and simple ways for you to gain trust from your cockatiel.
- Give Your Cockatiel A Treat
The best way to win your cockatiel's heart is by giving it a treat. Sure thing spoiling a pet too much may not really end up well. However, if you as the master can give your cockatiel a treat such as cockatiel's food or snack, the bird will stop acting defensive to you since it sees you as someone who cares enough to share food. Learn things you should know about cockatiel.
Be careful not to give treat too much, especially if your cockatiel behaves negatively. When they do something that is disturbing or too much for you to handle, ignore them instead. Otherwise, it will think you are encouraging bad behavior. Thus, only give treats to reward its positive behavior.
- Talk to Your Cockatiel Frequently
Even though cockatiel is not human, its social perceptive is well-developed to understand the value of having communication with others. This way, you can start to get your cockatiel's trust by engaging it in conversation. You may not going to receive proper feedback; however, this is the easiest and most fulfilling way to gain cockatiel's trust.
In order to make it successful, do not just do it once or twice. Instead, do it frequently in a routine to make your cockatiel's get used to you. For example, talk with your bird every morning or early evening. Ask question or just whistle around its cage. Gradually, your cockatiel will grow attachment to you.
- Try to Make Cockatiel to Fly to You
Another one of effective ways to get your cockatiel trust you is by training it to fly to you. Sure thing this is not really easy at the beginning since it requires patience and attention until your cockatiel can flap its wings and fly to you. Start by coaxing your cockatiel using treats for short distance. After that, go by gesture and command. You can extend and open up your palm to let cockatiel knows you want it to fly to you. You can also use command such as "Come Here (Cockatiel's Name) repeatedly
If you can train cockatiel to fly to you successfully until it decides to fly to your direction, it means you have gained the trust of your cockatiel. Make sure to do it consistently and start from short to long distance. Eventually you will get cockatiel to trust you.
- Get Them to Play With You
Cockatiel is also fond of playing with toys and flapping its wings around the house. This bird does not really favor to stay in cage all day long. What you need to do in order to get your cockatiel's trust is by letting them play with you along with toys.
You can start offering fake branches, mini ball, or set up a garden-like indoor atmosphere to make a safe and exciting playground for your cockatiel. If you are still new to cockatiel, clip its wings to make sure it will not run away and causes havoc.
- Do Something Close to Your Cockatiel
You do not always have to engage with your cockatiel to always have direct interaction with you. Especially if your cockatiel has only been recently move to your house. The bird will need to adjust itself to the surrounding to get familiar to it. To make you not disturbing the bird in its alone time, do something close near the cockatiel's cage. You can also pet your cockatiel by giving friendly gesture like extending palm.
For instance, watch television near your cockatiel's cage, play music when it is around, or read a book near it. Cockatiel is an observant animal and it will eventually learn your face and start to trust you since it sees you not doing anything that harms them.
- Greet Them Everyday
Greeting your cockatiel is also a way to get closer to your cockatiel. Every time you go outside and come back to your house, greet your cockatiel with warm greeting. You can also pet its head to show affection. By greeting your cockatiel, you are exuding friendliness instead of hostility. Saying something routinely every day will also help if you want to train your cockatiel to sing fluently. Since cockatiel is able to mimic voice, you may see your cockatiel copies your greeting to greet you back.
Moreover, if you live alone, greeting someone when you get back home is a good way to ease loneliness inside your house. This is surely an easy and heartwarming ways to get your cockatiel to trust you.
- Learn Their Body Language
Some birds use gesture to communicate to others, cockatiel is no exception. There are certain situations where cockatiel produces sound, or move their bodies to show something. For example, a cockatiel will bob its head when it gets excited from seeing toys or another bird. A cockatiel also flaps its wings and flies in frantic when it gets scared.
By knowing their body language, you will know how to respond to it. If you can read how your cockatiel shows hunger, you can feed it in time. A cockatiel that sees its master responding correctly to its need will gradually trust you.
These are all effective ways to get your cockatiel trust you. By gaining its trust, youkan improve your relationship with it and enjoy more time with your beloved pet.

"The last will be first and the first last."--Matthew 20:16
The man being interviewed in the radio story said he was the pastor of Primera Iglesia Bautista in Galax, Virginia. He said he was against "illegal" immigrants because he and the people he knew had worked hard to get to America, and it wasn't right to let other people enjoy more easily the privileges he had earned.
He also said he was torn, because some people he knew, people he called "family" in the largest sense of the word, were not strictly legal in their presence in this country. Nonetheless, he made me think of this parable:
For heaven's imperial rule is like a proprietor who went out the first thing in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard. After agreeing with the workers for a silver coin a day he sent them into the vineyard.
And coming out around 9 a.m. he saw others loitering in the marketplace, and he said to them 'You go into the vineyard too, and I'll pay you whatever is fair.' So they went.
Around noon he went out again, and at 3 p.m., and repeated the process. About 5 p.m. he went out and found others loitering about and says to them, 'Why did you stand here idle the whole day?'
They reply, 'Because no one hired us.'
He tells them, 'You go into the vineyard as well.'
When evening came the owner of the vineyard tells his foreman: 'Call the workers and pay them their wages starting with those hired last and ending with those hired first.'
Those hired at 5 p.m. came up and received a silver coin each. Those hired first approached thinking they would receive more. But they also got a silver coin apiece. They took it and began to grumble against the proprietor. 'These guys hired last worked only an hour but you have made them equal to us who did most of the work during the heat of the day.'
In response he said to one of them, 'Look, pal, did I wrong you? You did agree with me for a silver coin, didn't you? Take your wage and get out! I intend to treat the one hired last the same way I treat you. Is there some law forbidding me to do with my money as I please? Or is your eye filled with envy because I am generous?' (Matthew 20:1-15, SV)
It's the last line that's the lesson; well, part of the lesson. I love the parables. They don't comfort us. They challenge us. We are too prone to be comfortable; we are better off challenged.

c r <dk> asked:
Could you please illustrate this with an example or two?
Unless you specify the /g modifier, the RE engine stops at
the first match. Use the pos function to find the position
of the match.
Well, you'd have to merge your expressions somehow - the easiest
way would be to try and match /expr-a|expr-b/ but then I suspect
that for all but simple cases two separate matches would be faster.
Well, there is a certain overhead involved in keeping your processes
synchronized that would only be outweighed if you had a multi CPU
machine where both processes could run at once in the first place.
Even then it's a hassle.
If I were you I'd focus my energy in optimizing the expression.
If you're going to match many long strings with the same RE, you
could use the /o modifier to benefit. Also, you could try wether
a study() of the input strings speeds things up.

Carlos Tevez, Leonardo Bonucci and Alvaro Morata strike at Juventus Stadium to secure a seasonal double over the struggling Rossoneri.
Juventus beat fierce rival AC Milan 3-1 in Il Vero Derby D'Italia to move 10 points clear at the top of Serie A on Saturday as coach Massimiliano Allegri completed a double over Milan, which sacked him a little more than a year ago.
The Rossoneri started the match very brightly as they had majority of the possession and quite surprisingly they were looking sharp unless Argentinean Carlos Tevez broke the deadlock on 14 minutes.
As seen in the replay, Tevez was marginally offside when Alvaro Morata played the ball over to the Argentinean but the referee didn't raised his flag, Tevez one on one with Diego Lopez rolled the ball under him and gave the home side a early lead at the Juventus Stadium.
Juventus looked more fearsome since then unless a precise corner from Alessio Cerci found debutant Luca Antonelli who headed in perfectly to level the score 1-1 on 28th minutes.
The celebration was cut short when a corner from Andrea Pirlo finds Carlos Tevez whose header rolled to defender Leandro Bonucci who made no mistake and once again gave lead to Juventus on 30th minutes.
Milan suffered another setback as in-form French forward Jeremy Menez limped off to be replaced by Giampaolo Pazzini, but they would avoid conceding in embarrassing fashion as Lopez managed to cover Michael Essien's careless backpass in the 41st minute.
Gianluigi Buffon turned on the heroics to deny Pazzini when play resumed – the former Inter Milan striker had snaffled Antonelli's clever through-ball before being denied.
Alvaro Morata sealed the result in the 65th as Juventus continued to march toward a fourth successive title.
"We had a good game, but after we went ahead we were a bit weak," Allegri said. "We suffered too much from Milan's dead-ball situations. We have to improve that attitude."
"These are three very important points. The lads were good, they really wanted this win. There was no sense of revenge, I'm the coach of Juventus."
The victory takes the reigning champions 10 points above nearest challengers Roma, who will look to keep up the pressure when they play today in Cagliari.
Milan are down to 10th in Serie A with two easy fixtures coming up for them, Empoli and Cesena, respectively at San Siro. Pippo's men need to turn things around unless it proves to be more fatal for the Rossoneris.

Notable relatives of Nabi Raza Mir (a.k.a. Nabi Raza Abidi)
Nabi Raza Mir (a.k.a. Nabi Raza Abidi) insists that he is a "Syed."[1] While no one challenges Nabi Mir's membership in the South Asian "Syed" caste, there is extensive material evidence generated by Nabi Mir's troubled second son, Ali Mir (a.k.a. Ishraq Abidi), that make the alleged lineage of the Mirs and linkage to the Imam Ali ibn Abi Taleb, PBUH&HF, seriously disputable. Nevertheless, should the claims of Nabi Mir turn out to be true, he may also claim the high profile "Syeds" discussed below as his blood relatives.
The Gate of the Baha'is
Akl Hashem of the South Lebanon Army
This photo dated from the late 1980's shows Syed Akl Hashem (Arabic: السيد عقل هاشم), second from right, the late second-in-command of the South Lebanon Army (SLA), Israel's proxy defunct terrorist militia, speaking with then Israeli Defense Minister Itzhak Rabin, left, during the latter's visit to Israel's so-called Security Zone in south Lebanon. Syed Akl Hashem was killed on January 30, 2000, by Hezbollah, the Lebanon-based international terrorist organization.
Syed Akl Hashem is a member of the Banu Hashim clan of Mecca and a descendant of Prophet Muhammad, PBUH&HF, through his daughter Fatima, PBUH, and her husband al-Imam Ali ibn Abi Taleb, PBUH. The forefathers of Akl Hashem were Shia-Muslims; however, one of his recent predecessors claimed that he is Christian to avoid compulsory service in the Ottoman army. The Sunni-Muslim Turks had made it obligatory upon all able-bodied Muslims living under the rule of the Ottoman Caliph to serve in the armed forces of the empire. Non-Muslims were excluded from Ottoman military conscription.
Having taken refuge in Christianity, the elder Hashem renounced Shia-Islam and became a member in the Greek Orthodox Church. As the Hashemites adore positions of power, Akl Hashem was true to the path of his family when he became the field commander of the SLA and its number two man!
The government of Lebanon considers Akl Hashem[2] a traitor and a disgrace to the Lebanese nation due to his extensive and high level service in the disbanded South Lebanon Army (SLA) and collaboration with the government, intelligence services, and armed forces of the Jewish State. Lebanon and Israel are technically still at war with each other.
Mohamad Ali El Husseini
Ali Mir: Like father like son
Of course, an undoubtable relative of Nabi Mir is his very own son, Ali R. Mir (a.k.a. Ishraq Abidi) who gave sincere testimonies about the true thinking of his father and his followers:
Notes and references
- ↑ Syed (also spelled as Sayyed, Seyyed, Siyyid, etc.) is Arabic for master or lord (Arabic: سيّد). In general, it is an honorific that is used to mean Mister. As such, in the Arab World, formal letters are addressed to Sayyed so and so for men and Sayyeda so and so for women. Deeply devout Muslims who are true descendants of Prophet Muhammad, PBUH&HF, especially clerics, may be addressed with the Sayyed honorific. The Muslims of South Asia (India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan), especially the Shiites, adopted the caste system of their Hindu ancestors and neighbors and created a privileged "Syed" class, splitting the community into two distinguished types (Syeds and non-Syeds). In general, the members of the Syed class in the Indian Subcontinent tend to engage in consanguineous marriages (marriage among close relatives) to maintain their class-based privileges. In some remote backward villages, such as Alipur, Karnataka, India, this led to very high incidences of birth defects.
- ↑ Akl Hashem (Arabic: عقل هاشم) was the second in command in the Israeli-founded, -funded, and -trained South Lebanon Army (SLA). Hashem was assassinated by the Lebanese terrorist organization Hezbollah. The surname of Hashem is also spelled as Hashim, Hachem and Hachim while his first name is also spelled as Aql.
- ↑ Hezbollah (Arabic: "حزب الله"; a.k.a. Hizbullah; a.k.a. Hizballah) is an international terrorist organization based in Lebanon. Hezbollah is a sectarian entity, which follows and promotes the Khomeinist version of Shia Islam. Hezbollah has operatives stationed throughout the world, including the United States and Europe.

D.I.Y Friday~Picture Fame Card/Comment Box
>> Friday, October 10, 2008
I was looking for a cute card box for the wedding, and came across this. It's a cardbox made with picture frames, how neat! Now you can put those engagement pictures on display in a unique way! It looks like it's super easy to make and I think I would even use it after the wedding just as a way to diplay our pics. I would just change out the card slip with a black piece of MDF or some other inexpesive material. Scoot on over to Road to the Aisle blog she has other great projects as well. This blog is a little old but it still has some cool DIY items in there!

Zooming in on the universe has not been easy or quick. Humans watched the night sky for tens of thousands of years so that by the time early civilizations arose in areas like Mesopotamia, China, and Pre-Colombian America, amazingly detailed knowledge had been gained of the movements of the planets and other heavenly objects visible to the naked eye.
It was not until 1610 that a newfangled gadget called the telescope allowed Galileo to go beyond the limits of the eye and make his famous observations of four moons orbiting Jupiter.
Over the next three centuries, ever larger and more sophisticated telescopes focused in on new planets (Uranus in 1781, Neptune in 1841, Pluto in 1930), asteroids, and moons in our solar system.
Many discoveries were also made of the universe beyond our solar system but it still was not until 1923 that telescopic instruments advanced to a sufficiently sensitive level to allow Edwin Hubble to discover that many of those stellar lights were not stars but galaxies, i.e. conglomerations of billions of stars just like our own Milky Way.
And it wasn't until the mid-1990s that a star was resolved by a telescope as a disc rather than a point blur of light. The star was the red super-giant Betelgeuse, whose diameter is about as big as the orbit of Jupiter. Only a handful of similar giants have been subsequently resolved .
So making the next step and zooming in on planets around other stars is clearly a terrifically difficult task. I think it is fair to say that most people, including most astronomers, assumed up until the 1980s that such discoveries would require gigantic telescopes not available until far into the future; at least for spotting planets significantly smaller than Jupiter.
In Five Billion Years of Solitude: The Search for Life Among the Stars, Lee Billings tells the story of how astronomers successfully developed methods to detect planets around other stars without seeing them directly. The trick is to detect the effects of an exoplanet on its host star.
The first method to find an exoplanet successfully involves measuring shifts in the frequency of a star's light as a planet orbits the star. The orbiting planet causes the star to wobble and this wobble results in an increase in the frequency of light when the star moves towards us and a decrease when the star moves away from us. This is a very tiny effect but by monitoring hundreds of spectral lines for the telltale signs of Doppler shifts, the combined statistics of the shifts in all those lines creates a significant signal in the data as more and more orbits of the planet are observed. Groups in Canada, Switzerland and the US found the first exoplanets using this method in the early 1990s.
(In the book, Billings touches on the professional rivalries and squabbles that have arisen in the highly competitive exoplanet-finding field. Here is an article by him about one such battle: The Ugly Battle Over Who Really Discovered the First Earth-Like Planet – WIRED.)
This Doppler shift method (officially referred to as the radial-velocity method) is biased towards big exoplanets orbiting close to their stars. While our sun has little Mercury as its closest inner planet, it turns out that there are many stars out there with massive exoplanets orbiting much closer to their stars than Mercury is to the Sun. Over time this method has gotten increasingly refined and smaller planets, farther out from their star have been observed.
Another method is to look for the slight dimming of a star when one of its planets passes between us and the star. This transit method requires that the plane of the planet's orbit is oriented edge on from out point of view. This would seem to be very rare but there are so many stars out there that it happens often enough to give us plenty of cases to observe.
The Kepler space observatory has been spectacularly successful using the transit method. The Kepler team has accumulated a list of about 1000 confirmed exoplanets and over 4000 candidates are still under study. Most of the Kepler exoplanets are also large and too close to the stars to allow for life as we know it. However, a small subset of rocky planets similar in scale to the earth have been detected in "habitable zones" in which their orbits receive sufficient energy from their suns to allow for liquid water if the planets have dense enough atmospheres. That a handful of such candidate rocky exo-earth candidates have been detected is an enormous accomplishment.
The book, however, is not a technical guide to exoplanet detection. As the full name of the book implies, Billings puts the exoplanet discoveries in the broader context of the search for life beyond earth and for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI). He focuses particularly on Frank Drake, the leading pioneer in SETI, who published his famous Drake Equation in the 1960s for estimating the number of advanced civilizations in the galaxy. Or guesstimating is more accurate. Most of the parameters in the equation, such as the probability that a star has planets and the fraction of such planets that could support life, were poorly known or not known at all. The exoplanet discoveries finally provide hard data to determine some of these parameters.
Billings also reviews the formation of the solar system and the geologic and biologic history of the earth. Earth's development provides provide clues as to what to look for when seeking exoplanets with life.
Zooming in on earth-like planets and seeing them directly remains a key goal for exoplanet searchers. The most straight-forward way to do this is to build observatories in space and use special techniques to mask out the tremendous glare of the star so that the meager reflected light from the exoplanet can be examined. Most of the designs for such observatories will take considerable resources and Billings laments the lack of funding for such projects. He fears that just as we are finally gaining the capability to see and study distant earths, the implementation of that capability is receding into the future as NASA's budget remains flat or falls.
(Recently Billings wrote about designs for relatively low cost space observatories specialized to see earth-sized planets around nearby stars if such planets exist : Planet Hunters Bet Big on a Small Telescope to See Alien Earths – Scientific American.)
It has been nearly five billion years since the formation of our solar system and our earth. Billings message is that we have now proven that earth is not the only rocky planet in the Milky Way. The next step is to study these exo-earths and determine if humans remain in solitude or have companions in our galaxy as well.

Miley Cyrus is performing at the MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday (27Aug17).
Miley Cyrus has posed nearly nude for the front cover of photographer David LaChappelle's new coffee table book.
The 24-year-old, who has ditched her former wild, provocative image for a down-to-earth makeover of late, appears to be completely naked in the image, but she is actually wearing an extremely sheer bodysuit embellished with strategically placed clusters of pink Swarovski crystals around her breasts and privates to protect her modesty.
In the picture, which appears on the cover of LaChappelle's upcoming book Lost + Found, Miley looks like a pixie as she has butterfly wings sprouting out of her back. The singer, who wears a super curly blonde wig and heavy blue and pink eye make-up, is stood on the branch of a tree which has grown inside a prison cell.
Lost + Found, which marks his first publication in 10 years, will be published by Taschen on 1 December (17) and also contain more than 150 previously unpublished photographs of celebrities including Naomi Campbell, Lady Gaga, Kanye West and late stars Amy Winehouse, David Bowie, and Michael Jackson.
Miley has never been shy about stripping off and was known for her racy outfits and her raunchy performance with Robin Thicke at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2013.
She recently spoke to Billboard about her new image and said she wanted to be able to reach out to her more conservative fans but didn't think they would take her seriously when talking about politics if she was wearing her old outfits.
"I like talking to people that don't agree with me, but I don't think I can do that in an aggressive way," the singer said. "I don't think those people are going to listen to me when I'm sitting there in nipple pasties, you know?"
Miley returns to the VMAs on Sunday (27Aug17), when she will perform her new single Younger Now, from her upcoming album of the same name.

People often use the phrase "money can't buy happiness", but that's a statement that Michael Norton doesn't necessarily agree with. The TED talk "How to Buy Happiness" explains how you can use money to make you happy, but not in the way you might think.
Norton explains that you can "buy" happiness if you spend money on other people, besides yourself. For example, going out and buying a necklace for your mom will make you feel much happier than if you bought one for yourself. To test this, Norton and his team decided to conduct an experiment at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver. He gathered up a group of people and gave them each an envelope containing some money and a note. The money ranged anywhere from $5 to $20, and the notes were split in two- half said "spend this money on yourself" and the other half said "spend this money on others". At the end of the day, Norton and his team would call up his experimenters and ask them what they spent the money on and how they were feeling. He found that most people who spent the money on others were happy, and most people who spent the money on themselves had no effect on their mood, so they weren't really happy or sad. Given, they did this experiment in Canada which is known to be a pretty wealthy country, so they decided to conduct the same experiment in Uganda. Even there, they found almost the exact same results as they did in Vancouver.
A key point of Norton's TED talk is that it doesn't matter how big the gift or how much money you spend on it, the happiness you feel when giving it to someone will be there no matter what. For example, one girl buys a fifteen dollar birthday gift for her mom. Another girl pays for a child's hospital bills who suffers from malaria. They're both extremely different ways of giving- one is a nice and thoughtful gift, but another is literally life saving. But even though there's a big difference between the two of these, the happiness is still in both of them for knowing what they did.
This TED talk honestly made me think a lot about gratitude and giving back. A lot of the money I get for allowance or from birthdays is spent on myself, not others- but I love the feeling of giving someone a gift. I agree with Norton when he says that spending your money on someone else brings you more joy, I just don't do it very often. My mom always gives me these long lectures about gratitude, basically saying the same things as Norton did in his talk, but for some reason it really hit me in the face when I heard him talking about it. Moreso when he brought up the women who paid for the child's hospital bills, and conducting his experiment in Uganda- the people living there were already not very privileged, so hearing that they were happier giving than receiving in their situation just melted my heart and really made me want to give more in the world.
"How to Buy Happiness" shows an unbelievable experiment that makes you really wonder about the difference between selfishness and selflessness. Norton's talk is truly the epitome of the phrase "to give is better than to receive."

For those of you who have read this blog over the pat few years, you will remember that I have a tendency to "go underground" now and again. The past few months I haven't been writing at all, so it's not just the blog that I have neglected. It's not writer's block per se, just well, life block I guess.
Sometimes I take a sabbatical to rejuvenate my spirit, sometimes it's just me putting a pillow over my head and attempting to ignore the complexity of life. Life is putrid and beautiful all at once. So much has happened since I last blogged. Too much to even begin sharing…but I will tell you, it;s all been very interesting!
More than anything I just wanted to let you know that I am alive and well. I hope your life is engaging and beautiful! Drop me a line and let me know how you are and what you've been up to. I have wondered about you…
From my heart to yours,

The information you need to start your day, from PaymentsSource and around the Web:
Robot on aisle five: Walmart is expanding its use of shelf-scanning robots, which check stock levels, pricing and misplaced items. Engadget reports the big box retailer will add 50 more stores to what had been a limited pilot, creating one of the largest deployments of shelf-scanning robots to date. The robots, manufactured by Bossa Nova robotics, use 3D imaging to move around obstacles in the aisles, and can also make notes to return to an aisle later if it's completely blocked. The robots aren't designed to replace human staff, Walmart told Engadget, and humans will continue to stock shelves, since the robots have difficulty grabbing objects. The move is more to "eliminate drudgery" and the expense of manually checking prices and counting the number of items on a shelf.
Picture a purchase: eBay shoppers will be able to use photos they take or store on their phone—or see on the internet and social networks—to order similar products from eBay's catalog. Called Image Search and Find it on eBay, the technology uses computer vision and deep learning, reports TechCrunch. The services could counter Amazon and sites with "buy buttons" such as Pinterest, Google and retailers such as Wayfair—all of which have similar visual search and match capabilities. But TechCrunch reports the size of eBay, which has more than 1.1 billion items in its catalog, could give it an advantage. For example, while Pinterest has more than 100 billion items in its image database, the vast majority of those items cannot be shopped, according to TechCrunch.
Stop and think? Behavioral analysis is one of the toughest anti-fraud techniques because it's designed to spot transactions that are already out of character. Barclays is taking the concept in a different direction by requiring consumers who are making an uncharacteristic transfer to answer questions designed to make the consumer consider whether he or she may be a victim of a scam. Finextra reports the pop-up questionnaires are being introduced as more U.K. consumers are tricked into transferring funds to crooks who pretend to be business contacts. The questions come up right after the consumer makes an unusually large online payment, or a payment from an odd location, etc. If the consumer has concerns about the payment after answering the questions, the system allows them to contact Barclays using a number on the back of their payment card. The bank considers the pop-up questions to be a "stop and think" moment for the consumer to consider the legitimacy of a payment.
The 'threat' is not fintechs: While technology startups have been disruptive, it's the e-commerce giants such as Amazon and Alibaba that pose the greatest threat to banks and traditional payment companies, the Financial Post reports, citing research from McKinsey. Banks have largely weathered the fintech revolution through a series of investments and collaborations that the banks have used to accelerate development of their own products. But it's Amazon and Alibaba's scale and encroachment into the "distribution" side of financial services that poses the much greater threat, the Post reports, adding these moves will help Amazon and Alibaba expand beyond e-commerce and into areas such as asset management, lending and payments. But banks do retain an advantage in consumer trust and data, enabling them to compete with the larger e-commerce platforms.

Chinese fintech firms set for flurry of IPOs in US, HK
China Daily | Thu Oct 26, 2017 - The phenomenon of "Chinese companies lining up for an IPO in the United States or Hong Kong" has re-surfaced recently, Tiger Brokers, an online brokerage helping Chinese investors trade US- or HK-listed stocks, told chinadaily.com.cn Thursday. Several fintech companies in China are indeed preparing for IPO in the US or HK, Economic Information Daily also reported Thursday. "There will be a new wave of China concept stocks after these two to three years' quietness," said Tiger Brokers research team. The companies planning an IPO could be aided by BAT (Baidu, Tencent, Alibaba), just like ZhongAn was or in a sector whose benchmarking company has already got listed and accepted by overseas investors, according to the report.
Singapore aims to finish its own cryptocurrency trial next year
CNBC | Thu Oct 26, 2017 - Singapore will conclude its experiment with blockchain technology and its own digital currency next year before deciding whether to commercialize the trial, the country's regulator has told CNBC. In 2016, the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) announced "Project Ubin," an exploration of blockchain or distributed ledger technology. The project is split into five phases. The first, which looked at establishing a proof-of-concept design to conduct inter-bank payments using blockchain technology, was completed earlier this year. The second phase, which finished earlier this month, saw the development of three different models for inter-bank payments using blockchain. Now, the MAS trial is looking at delivering securities, cross border payments and, finally, using a digital version of the Singapore dollar to carry out real transactions and buy assets.
Equifax Ignored Warning of Breach, Says Researcher
Fortune | Thu Oct 26, 2017 - A security researcher claims to have warned Equifax of major vulnerabilities to its computer systems last December. If true, this contradicts the company's claim to have only learned about the problems this spring—and provides more evidence Equifax could have prevented a catastrophic data breach that affected at least 145 million Americans. The new allegations, reported by a security reporter at tech news site Motherboard, say the unnamed researcher scanned servers and public-facing websites, and discovered it was easy to access troves of personal data of Equifax customers. In at least one case, a website that appeared to be an internal employee portal for looking up customer information could be accessed by anyone on the Internet. Overall, the security vulnerabilities appeared to have offered easy access to a staggering amount of sensitive data.

Tesla Q3 Revenue, EPS, & Delivery Numbers: Estimates vs Reality
September 9th, 2018 | by Vijay Govindan
When companies report earnings, the financial news mentions how the company's revenue and earnings per Share (EPS) performed against professional estimates. If a company beats both, the stock price will usually go higher. And if they miss both, the stock price will go the opposite way, lower. If either misses, financial analysts will ask management questions on the conference call to get a better idea of how the underlying business is doing

Half the Sky Author Discusses His New Book
New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof recently spoke on the topic of "New Aid in a New Age: Understanding International Development" at a sold out event sponsored by the Chicago Council on Global Affairs. Mr. Kristof was in town to discuss his new book, A Path Appears: Transforming Lives, Creating Opportunity which he co-authored with his wife, Sheryl WuDunn. Much of the evening's discussion focused on the education of girls. In describing smart girls as "agents of change", Mr. Kristoff noted that terrorist groups such as The Taliban, ISIS and Boko Haram had good reason to suppress the education of girls. Studies show that the education of girls leads to economic growth, greater participation of women in public life, lower birthrates and greater influence by mothers over their sons. All of these factors decrease the risk of extremism taking hold in a community. While acknowledging the need for military action in battling these terrorist groups, Mr. Kristoff also encouraged leaders to use education and women's empowerment as tools to fight extremism. Describing education as "an escalator out of poverty", he urged attendees to get to work on creating opportunity for all. We at GSG couldn't agree more.

text: Hi, Mac Pro (2010), OS X 10.6.8, MacTex 2011, BasicTex 2010 (probably soon to be deleted) I hope you don't mind if I do a 'hit-and-run'. In the interests of saving space I'd like to apply hfsCompression to the /usr/local/texlive folder. I'll be making a backup prior to doing so, and I have Time Machine, but I thought it prudent to see if anyone could highlight any foreseeable problems with this action before proceeding---it'd be nice to avoid a tedious re-install procedure :-) The exact command I'm intending to apply is: sudo ditto --hfsCompression /usr/local/texlive /usr/local/texlive2 I would then delete the original texlive folder, and rename the new one to replace it. For those who might not know, 'ditto' now preserves resource forks, HFS meta-data, extended attributes, quarantine information and ACLs by default. So, would I, for example, have to re-create the symbolic links that point to this folder? In addition, it might be nice to thin the 'texlive' folder by also using the '--arch x86_64' switch---my Mac uses the 64-bit kernel by default, you see. Does anyone know whether this particular switch would cause problems? To clarify, the full command would be: sudo ditto --arch x86_64 --hfsCompression /usr/local/texlive /usr/local/texlive2 Your feedback appreciated.
