Thought I would add a review on this FO, since I was pleasantly surprised! My first impression was that it doesn't smell like basil, but I also don't get the cilantro/parsley smell that others claim. To me its certainly "green" but had a bit of spiciness. Truthfully, I wasn't a fan ... UNTIL.... I poured it in 464 and let it cure. I still wasn't too keen on the scent it was giving off during cold throw, however, yesterday I lit my sample candle and WOW! This is a winner! A really strong clean green scent. This would pair nicely with a fig fragrance.

accelerated/ riced my tried and true CP soap recipe...rats cause I was hoping this would be a great soap fragrances. too grassy smelling to use in candles.

This is not a bad scent, but it is different. Smells like grass. I can't get anyone to buy it! Thought it would be a good summer scent, but it's not working out.
Submitted On 2013-06-12 Alicia
As the previous reviewer said - parsley and grass. That being said, I think it smells great and very natural. Also reminds me of walking into a flower shop. I do, however, sell it as "Herb Garden" as I really can't smell the sweetness of basil at all.
Submitted On 2012-05-12 Rach & Judy
It has a nice smell. It has a minty smell. It smells like fresh cut grass in the spring. It smells natural not artificial.
Submitted On 2012-05-07 Alicia
Super good cold throw, and pretty strong hot throw. I love it, and have gotten several orders! It has a spicy, earthy scent and I feel like I am in the garden. Definitely adding it as a kitchen scent.
Submitted On 2012-01-25 Alison Hoke
Not liking this one. Wanted something different so decided to try Basil and Herb. Expected a sweeter herb. My mother loved it though.
Submitted On 2010-07-01 Roderic Rinehart
Not going to reorder. I love 9/10 scents from Candlescience, but not this one.
Submitted On 2010-03-19 Tina
This is a wonderfully fresh and clean fragrance. It definitely has a green plant smell. It is not overpowering, just a nice subtle "wow that smells nice" kind of thing. I just ordered a 1 oz bottle but I will certainly order more. Poured in a paraffin/soy mixture.
Submitted On 2008-01-11 Christine G
I've intended to use these in soaps and the scent was just as described. Great kitchen/facial scent!
Submitted On 2008-01-10 Megan T.
I use a lot of fresh herbs in my cooking. Parsley is one of them. If you have ever minced fresh parsley, you will know that to be this fragrance. No basil at all. I smell parsley and grass. Not a bad scent, but definately not basil.
Submitted On 2007-07-30 Carrie Govek C*G Candles
Basil and Herb is a beautiful, green, fresh straight from the garden fragrance. It is now up there with my favorite scents. Tested in my custom palm/soy pillar blend and it burned great and threw scent perfectly! Love it, Love it!

The scent description says it all. Wonderful cold & hot throw. I have been searching for a scent like this and now my search is over.

Passenger traffic at RDU increases in May
The number of passengers departing from Raleigh-Durham International Airport increased 4.4 percent in May compared with the same month last year.
It was the third consecutive month that traffic has increased at the airport.
A total of 436,051 passengers departed RDU in May. The number of passengers arriving at the airport last month was 427,600, up 4.8 percent.
"After a slow beginning to the year due to the inclement weather our region experienced, we are seeing growth in the number of passengers traveling through RDU," said RDU President and CEO Mike Landguth in a statement. "The spring break travel period kicked off in March, and the momentum we gained continues as we head into the summer travel season."

Agile development, a software development methodology that has been making inroads in the federal government in recent years, could get a big boost from the impending era of budget austerity.
"Clients want to see results within a six-to-nine-month timeframe, if not sooner," said Cheryl Campbell, senior vice president at CGI Federal, speaking at the March 29 panel at the Acquisition Excellence conference in Washington, D.C.
Agile development, used by agencies such as the General Services Administration and the Defense Department, allows continuous development, accumulative releases of capabilities, and tight-knit collaboration between developers and users. The purpose of this modular approach is to ensure that IT initiatives are completed fast, on deadline and on budget, all elements of increasing importance amid crunched budgets.
Agility also plays a part in the White House's effort to innovate and harness technology to help build a better government. When U.S. CIO Steven VanRoekel announced his "Future First" plan, he mentioned how the public sector had learned to adapt its business models to leverage new technologies, including agility.
Campbell said her firm responds frequently to congressional mandates in supporting the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services where a substantial part of the activity involves legislative mandates that say the end date doesn't change but requirements are moving and evolving through that whole process.
"Agile will allow us the flexibility to continue to develop in that environment and be able to come to the end results in a timely fashion with the appropriate solutions," she added.
At the Veterans Affairs Department, strategies to stretch the agency's budget include standardizing and consolidating its spend, said Jan Frye, deputy assistant secretary for acquisition and logistics. Part of that effort, he said, is the Fredericksburg, Va.-based Strategic Acquisition Center, which works with VA customers to identify opportunities to standardize or to combine VA's spend.
"We have to attempt to buy like Walmart does – buy by the trainload instead of the carload," Frye said. That approach, however, he stressed, doesn't mean that VA is giving inferior products but instead is working to identify how it "can get a better deal for the taxpayers so we can support the veterans the way they deserve to be supported."
When agencies are asked to do less with less, officials have to determine which programs or functions get eliminated from the equation. That could be particularly challenging at agencies such as DHS "where I have not found a single program that isn't delivering some value to our operators in the field," said Dr. Cedric Sims, executive director at DHS' Office of Program Accountability and Risk Management.
Smart purchasing is "very important," Sims said, and DHS is looking at enterprise purchases and capabilities across the department and how it can leverage its spend agencywide.
"In the aggregate, it means we're doing less but the reality is that we're doing the better things we need to do to work across the enterprise," he said.
The American Council for Technology Industry Advisory Council and GSA hosted the Acquisition Excellence.

VA has over 100 ongoing projects, all of which deliver releases to customers in six month or less increments. Some of them are using Agile with 2 week sprints. You can do real agile in government.
The definition of the word agile becomes important when discussing 6-9 month delivery cycles. Agile development life cycles mean continuous delivery of "finished" products for evaluation by the end-user and stakeholders. However, in many cases that is not possible in the Federal Government. It is possible to develop IT using traditional waterfall SDLCs but incorporating 6-9 month "measurement intervals". Therefore creating an "agile" waterfall approach, and being able to keep closer control over a waterfall project management approach.

Theater and Dance
Within Theatre and Dance, there are five areas of emphasis: acting/directing, performance studies, dramaturgy, stage design, and dance/choreography. History, criticism and theory are integrated with practice in our course offerings and consequently, performance opportunities exist within most of our courses as well as in our mainstage productions. First year students and non-majors often participate in our mainstage productions. There are many routes to a major, depending on general interest and/or emphasis.
All entering students who have previously studied Spanish will receive a letter from the Spanish Department informing them of their placement. Only the students with an AP Spanish language or literature score of 4 or 5 or with no clear placement based on high school transcript will have to take the Placement Test during New Student Orientation (it is not administered at any other time). The department uses the results of the Placement Test to recommend the appropriate starting point for each student.
Many Sociology majors study off campus for a semester, typically during the third year. The Department strongly encourages off-campus study, as well as internships, and helps students, with early planning, adjust their four-year plans to incorporate such opportunities.
The Sociology major begins with Sociology 111, which introduces students to the concepts, theories, and methods of the discipline and is a prerequisite to all courses at the 200 level.
All entering students who have previously studied Russian should take a Placement Test during New Student Orientation (it is not administered at any other time). The department uses the results of the Placement Test to recommend the appropriate starting point for each student.
Why Russian?
Religious Studies
We recommend that students considering a major in Religious Studies take a 100-level "Studying Religion" course and at least two 200-level courses by the end of the their second year.
Since most courses following Psychology 113 require a course in statistics — Mathematics 115 (Introduction to Statistics) or Mathematics 209 (Applied Statistics) — students should take this course as early as possible.

Your desire to understand has always been so clear. It's one of your fiercest personality traits, and sometimes you and I butt heads over it.

You're a liberal. With all due respect, please act like one. Liberals take a stand on social causes during a crisis, not long after a crisis has subsided and emotions have softened. Liberals alienate people with their views on race and justice, and when needed, even anger some people within their ranks as well.

Like online movie maven Netflix, Overstock figures it can come up with a better way to present personalized offers to shoppers by enticing the experts of the world to devise a new method.
Following a script from online movie maven Netflix Inc., which in 2009 awarded $1 million to the contestants who devised a better method for predicting which flicks a Netflix subscriber would like, Overstock.com Inc. is offering to pay $1 million to e-commerce technology experts if they can develop a better algorithm for recommending products to shoppers on Overstock.com.
Any researcher, or research team, whose algorithm can produce 10% more sales than the recommendations technology Overstock.com currently employs will win $1 million. And if the team works at a university, the e-retailer will donate an additional $250,000 to the educational institution. If no team produces a 10% lift, then the algorithm that produces the biggest increase will win a prorated prize. For instance, an 8% lift will earn a prize of $800,000, Overstock.com said in announcing the contest last month.
Overstock.com is working with its current provider of recommendations technology, RichRelevance, on what the two companies call the RecLab Prize.
"This is a phenomenal opportunity to benefit our customers, who will get early, exclusive access to the most advanced recommendations possible through the participation of top educational and research institutions worldwide," says Overstock.com CEO Patrick Byrne. As part of the contest, Overstock.com will be able to exclusively license the winning algorithm for 18 months.
"The Netflix Prize did a great job of mobilizing the research community around a new and interesting problem," says Darren Vengroff, chief scientist at RichRelevance and creator of RecLab, the vendor's testing and research platform. "The RecLab Prize on Overstock.com takes the next step by offering researchers the chance to solve a multidimensional, real-world problem and see how their best algorithms perform when put in front of live shoppers."
Byrne says he believes researchers may be able to achieve 10% better results than Overstock.com's current recommendations technology. "I would be thrilled," he says, "if someone got 10% better lift."

Briermere Farm - Riverhead
- Gastronomos Mar 21, 2013 08:37 PM
Well, I haven't been there in quite a while, but unless they've changed completely in recent years, they do indeed make good pies. If I were willing to make the effort I could make a pie perhaps as good, but for a "bought" pie, I can't remember a better one than theirs. Very home-style using good ingredients.
Briermere Farm's pies are OK.
Some people feel that they are too pricey, or too much air between the crust and the filling.
Their breads and rolls are very good.
I do love Briemere's pies. Their fruit cream pies are absolutely heavenly- raspberry cream is my favorite.
I have had the blueberry and apple pies from Briermere, and they were good, but not great, IMO. I have not tried the cream pies which, I have heard, are really good (as Chris mentions below.) There is always a line out the door for those pies, so if that is any indication..
The blueberry muffin they make is excellent.

I have one area of the potager/kitchen garden that I need some help with...it's next to the arbor, with the other beds going around the perimeter. It could be round, but I think an oval might fit the space better. The bed could be 9'-10' wide and 12'-14' long.
There's a birdbath I'd like to put in the middle and I was thinking about moving my two Therese Bugnet roses to this bed (they're getting a little chewed on by the deer right now). I'd also like to add herbs to this bed, especially fragrant ones. It's close to the arbor and is also the first bed you see as you walk in either entrance. Any suggestions for herbs? Do you think the roses would look good there? I love roses and herbs together, so I'm hoping to come up with something that will work :)
Also, after seeing those herb borders in the other post, I think that would work great in front of the veggies along the perimeter beds!
Hello -
There is a great article at About.Com: Gardening that talks about companion plants for roses, and at the end of the article, herbs with roses. It's very informative and I'm sure you would find it helpful.
A rose/herb bed sounds wonderful. You would end up with a beautifully scented flower bed to greet you as you walk into your potager. Very nice idea.
Good luck!
I just want to caution you about putting a birdbath in the center of a bed. Be sure you can easily get in to empty and clean it. And maybe think about planting something that will enjoy the regular dumping of the birdbath water?
I LOVE having birds in my garden, and providing fresh, clean water is the most important thing, so I don't want the regular cleaning to become an inconvenient chore that I avoid doing.

Paper rolls 2.0
Flourishing felt
this tutorial. I made some changes though: coloured the outside of the leafs with pencil, used orange and pink for the heart and reduced the size by 50%. They look almost real when applied to the branch.
Selfie cake
this one. But the instructions are clear and my first try was already pretty ok. The portrait came on top of J's favourite chocolate-sour cream cake (similar recipe). Every year the same. Luckily her friends like chocolate cake too.
Noordbrabants Museum. I think, a big succes. Sunday was her real birthday, for the family. Very excited she was about the Lego Mindstorms set.The present was unwrapped quickly and the snake came together in no time. With her father she reprogrammed it, adding sounds and movement. Great way to get acquainted to computer programming. But our future biologist loved another present best, even better than the tickets for Freek Vonk live (Dutch Steve Irwin): the giant prickly stick insects. But I'm not sure I am so happy about those 5 new pets...
Less is more banana bars
this one. A two ingredient recipe, with one extra ingredient to vary. Very quick and simple. The result is not crunchy, but chewy. One daughter and the husband really disliked them, the other daughter loved the cookies. And I? I'm somewhere in the middle. Didn't really like them at first, but grew to appreciate them more and more. I would add a pinch of salt next time. But then it's already a 4-ingredient recipe.
Johannes Vermeer
Jan Sluijters
Lime, lime leaves and lemon grass
Here's a good recipe. We only replaced the salt by fish sauce. Try it!
Easter approaching
These egg warmers are so cute! And easily made, even though the pattern is in Italian. My Italian isn't that good, but the drawings are illustrating the numbers in the text. The warmers I made turned out to be slightly small or the eggs a bit too big. Next time I'll take a larger crochet hook.

Kids will go wild for these three classic card games, with whimsical, colorful animal illustrations. Set includes Old Maid, Go Fish and Animal Rummy. Each of the three jumbo-sized, durable card decks features wipe-clean surfaces, a cardboard storage box and detailed playing instructions.

They help the children with their colors, numbers, matching skills and it has really been a lot of fun for me and for them.
These cards are large with colorful, cute pictures on them and easier for him to hold than traditional sized cards.

I worked at OBOX Solutions as a contractor (less than a year)
They will take care of their people AND take care of their clients equally well.
They pay... typically better than market rate. Once OBox places you, they come by and check to see how things are going. That's hard to find with the larger companies!
OBOX is new. They don't have the clientele of the older, larger companies. This is, actually, good and bad.
Keep doing what you are doing. Don't forget us former employees when we need placing.

Beatrice R. Kimball, 90
FRANKLIN — Beatrice R. Kimball, 90, of Franklin, died Monday February 24 at Concord Hospital after a period of declining health. She was born April 7, 1923 in Manchester, NH to Patrick and Caroline MacLeod Ready and was a sister to brothers John and William and sister Gloria.
Following graduation from Manchester Central High School Bea decided to broaden her horizons, graduating from a Manchester business school and heading off to Washington, DC to a job in the Department of the Navy. She could not have imagined that she would be in the nation's capital on Dec. 7, 1941 when Pearl Harbor was attacked and WWII began in earnest for the United States. Washington quickly was populated with soldiers and sailors, among them Bea's brother Bill who entered the Navy. Photos from that time show innocent, happy young friends enjoying their independence and being in the center of the nation's capitol during wartime. Following WWII she returned to NH, working at the Veterans Administration where she met her future husband Douglas Kimball, married July 1, 1950 and moved to Franklin where they eventually bought their much loved home on Beech Street, living there for more than 50 years.
When her children were in school Bea returned to working outside the home and spent many enjoyable years at Franklin Savings Bank where she began as secretary to the president and eventually became a mortgage officer and Assistant Vice-President. She truly loved her work.
Always, her love for her family, generosity and caring for others have been a hallmark of her life and she will be sorely missed by her family and the countless people she touched throughout her life.
Bea was preceded in death by her husband Douglas, her parents, brothers and grandson Ian Burns. She is survived by her daughters Lynne Kimball Burns and her husband William of Franklin, Deborah Kimball and her husband Eugene Shear of Concord, a granddaughter Sarah Burns and her husband Chris Brown, two great-grandchildren Aislyn and Liam Brown of New Durham and her sister Gloria Rase of Florida.
Bea's family would like to express their gratitude to the staff of 3North at the Merrimack County Nursing Home, the staff of Concord Hospital and CRVNA Hospice for the care they gave during Bea's last years.
A memorial service will be held on Saturday, March 8 11 a.m. at the Franklin Congregational-Christian Church, South Main Street, West Franklin, NH. Spring burial will be in the family lot at Franklin Cemetery.
Arrangements are under the care of the William F. Smart Sr. Memorial Home of Tilton.
Memorial gifts may be made to the Edna C. McKenna Trust Fund, Merrimack County Nursing Home, C/O Mary Heath 325 Daniel Webster Highway Boscawen, NH 03303. For more information go to www.smartfuneralhome.com

Walking around Mendoza, you'll soon realise it's unlike other South American cities (if you've been to any prior to visiting this one). Other cities on the continent are known for their hecticness and fast pace. But one city that hasn't really adopted this way of life is Mendoza in western Argentina.
The first thing I noticed about Mendoza when I was visited was that all the streets were tree-lined. Each and every one was as lush as the other. While this wasn't completely different to the city I arrived from, Santiago, it was a change from the streets of Cusco and Lima in Peru.
Mendoza wasn't on my initial itinerary for Argentina but I'm glad I visited. It's a beautiful city and its slower pace was a breath of fresh air. Try to visit it if you're going to Argentina. If you're looking for some inspiration, listen to our podcast, watch our video and more here.

Pharrell's Hat to Be Displayed in a Museum, Where It Really Belongs
The iconic headwear in Washington, D.C's Newseum starting August 22
Pharrell's ridiculous Vivienne Westwood hat captivated America at this year's Grammy's ceremony, but it wasn't long before he decided to part ways with the already iconic headwear. Good things can't always last forever, but as MTV reports, the folks over at Arby's have done the good deed of the century by rescuing the hat from the hands of scheming collectors who might hide this precious national icon/resource away in their private residences.
Though it took a $44,100 eBay bid, the roast beef-makers did their part to keep the "Buffalo Gals" hat in the public eye and now they're doing even more, by putting it on display in Washington, D.C.'s Newseum from August 22 to October 26. We'd actually argue that it belongs in the Smithsonian, but the fact that it's been preserved for public consumption is good enough. So go starting this Friday and see the wonder that is Pharrell's Grammy hat. Stand next to it. Take selfies with it. But don't you dare try to wear it and put at risk what Arby's has fought so long and hard for. Below you can watch a Vine that Arby's posted promoting the exhibition.
Our hat has found a temporary home. See it exclusively at the @newseum starting on 8/22. #HatattheNewseum https://t.co/ofncD6CREU— Arby's (@Arbys) August 18, 2014

My brain is buzzed,
But my mind is clear,
With my need,
To get far away from here.
My heart it achs,
And it's so terrible bad,
That it could break,
And I simply wish it would.
I can't shake these tears from my eyes,
And I can't believe, that again,
I'm being fed lies!
I don't do it to you, so how is it,
That you call yourself in love with me,
And yet it's so easy for you to lie,
Like I'm to just let it be.
When mistrust, insecurity, and paranoia,
Is what killed "us" in the first place,
It makes me want to pull my corset tight,
Tug and wrestle and pull the lace,
Untill theres only blue on my face.
Love honor and devotion,
All that worthless once
It's been fully broken.
I need protection, love,
But most of all consideration,
It's really not hard,
IT takes little consentration
And yet a suprising amount of effort.
I'll wipe these tears from my eyes,
And continue without the lies!
My heart does ach, and though it should break,
I will piece it back togather again!
And No matter how clear my mind may get,
You'll be impossible to entierly "forget"

Hello, thanks for looking!
I have been looking around CPAN for a module that might save me from starting from scratch. So far I haven't found what I'm looking for hopefully due to a failure to use the proper terminology or focusing on too narrow of a use case.
I have some data in Redis that I'd like to be able to run SQL-style queries on. I'm not looking to invent a SQL wrapper for Redis but I do think it would be useful to have an ability to test values against ad hoc conditionals.
I'd like to be able to pass a subroutine a conditional test and a value to test against it. For example the conditional could be a hash ref like this (say we're testing a zip code):
my $conditional_test = {
'condition1' => {
'value' => '10022'
'condition2' => {
'value' => '96813'
'condition3' => {
'value' => '55401'
#do something
Possible conditions could be (and, or, not...)
Ideally we could nest these conditions as well which is why I'm looking for a parser that's already built. I did find a grammar parser that looked like it worked for natural language as well as some conditional parsers specific to specialized data (XML, lists) but nothing generalized.
Has anyone come across this particular problem (not Redis queries but checking data against ad hoc value tests) before and found a good solution? It seems like a use case that might warrant a module.
Thanks again for looking.
Hello everyone,
I seek your wisdom on this question:
Is there a way to ask Perl whether an object supports stringification,
including via "magic autogeneration"?
The only way I've found so far was by trying to eval the stringification,
like in the code below.
The specific case here is the "ICanStringify" class,
where overload::Method($s,'""') is false, but the object still stringifies.
Did I miss some function somewhere that can tell me whether that class will stringify?
use strict;
use warnings;
{ package OnlyAString;
use overload fallback=>0, '""'=>sub { ${shift()} }
{ package ICanStringify;
use overload fallback=>undef, '0+'=>sub { ${shift()} }
{ package OnlyANumber;
use overload fallback=>0, '0+'=>sub { ${shift()} }
bless my $s1=\do {my $x=111}, 'OnlyAString';
bless my $s2=\do {my $x=222}, 'ICanStringify';
bless my $s3=\do {my $x=333}, 'OnlyANumber';
use overload ();
sub can_str {
my $s = shift;
print "Object ", overload::StrVal($s), ":\n";
print " \"\" ", overload::Method($s,'""')
?"IS":"is NOT", " overloaded\n";
my $e = eval { "$s" };
print " stringification ", defined($e)
?"WORKED: $e\n":"DIDN'T work: $@\n";
Object OnlyAString=SCALAR(0x3684370):
"" IS overloaded
stringification WORKED: 111
Object ICanStringify=SCALAR(0x3664210):
"" is NOT overloaded
stringification WORKED: 222
Object OnlyANumber=SCALAR(0x3679682):
"" is NOT overloaded
stringification DIDN'T work: Operation """": no method found, argu
+ment in overloaded package OnlyANumber at test.pl line 28.
The background is that I have a function that accepts only strings.
Because passing a reference was a mistake I made a few times, I started
warning if any references were passed to it, including objects.
But then I realized that some objects stringify and that's useful,
and that some objects die when you try to stringify them.
I'd like to loosen the restrictions, and still warn on references
and objects that don't stringify, but not on objects that stringify.
Any wisdom on this topic would be greatly appreciated!

Hey Monks,
Just starting off in perl (and programming in general) and need to do an exercise but a bit confused on the process.
Trying to create a script that will ask the user to enter a number between 1 and 5 and for it to print a colour represented e.g. if they enter 1, Blue comes up or 3, red gets printed. I've done a bit of research and I know I need to create an array (@) but not too clear on how to do so.
After that I need to assign an emotion to the colour e.g. blue = calm, red = angry. I'd also like to know how to incorporate modulus into this so on even/odd number inputs I can print it out (think ill need an if/else statement for this?)
At the end I'd like it to look like this:
Please enter a number between 1 and 5:
Blue. Even. Calm
So far I've got the code below and have no idea how to finish or even progress, any ideas?
print "Please enter a number between 1 and 5 (inclusive) below:";
my $number = <STDIN>;
my @colours = ("red", "green", "blue", "purple", "black");
my %table = (
1 => "angry"
2 => "sick"
3 => "calm"
4 => "worried"
5 => "sad"
Hi there,
as Module::Build will vanish out of the perl core in some versions, I'd like to know how I can do Module::Build�s adding of new file types.
Say I have .dat files that are located in /dat in my modules path.
With Module::Build I can add a file type by adding my files within the definition ( dat_files => {'some/dir/Bar.dat' => 'lib/Foo/Bar.dat'},), then make that known to the builder:
Is there anything similar in ExtUtils::MakeMaker?
I searched for that feature but is was not really obvious to me ...
Perl's vec and bitwise string operators are very useful and powerful for manipulating (large) bitstrings; but they are limited in several ways.
Namely, there are no left & right shift operators for them; and the bitwise string operators operate with 8-bit boundaries.
One common operation needed for programming with bitstrings is the ability to search one bitstring for another bitstring, looking for matches that occur even at
non-byte or integer-sized alignments.
So graphically, using 8-bit units instead of 64 for brevity, the problem is this:
Find (the first occurance of):
needle = x1001010 10101001 10100xxx (x represents bits we are not
+ interested in)
haystk = xxxxx001 10001101 01110010 10101010 01101001 01100011 100
+11001 00010001 .....
The specification of needle requires three values:
Similarly, the haystack requires 3 values:
U64 bsSearch( U64 *hay, U8 oHay, U64 lHay, U64 *ndl, U8 oNdl, U64
+lNdl ) {
In an ideal world (Perl) the function would return the unit number(or address), and the offset into that unit, where the match is found (or 0).
As C doesn't permit multiple return values, I've opted for a single 64-bit value indicating the offset from the start of the first unit of the haystack (or -1?).
haystk = xxxxx001 10001101 01110010 10101010 01101001 01100011 100
+11001 00010001 .....
needle = x10010 10101010 0110100x xx (note the
+ alignment change!)
return = 01234567 89012345 6789 = 19th bit
= unit 2/ bit 3
There are 128-bit shift instructions available on Intel/AMD 64-bit processors (and probably most others):
REX.W + 0F A5 SHLD r/m64, r64, CL B Valid N.E. Shift
+ r/m64 to left CL places while shifting bits from r64 in from the rig
REX.W + 0F AD SHRD r/m64, r64, CL B Valid N.E. Shift
+ r/m64 to right CL places while shifting bits from r64 in from the le
which are available on the MS compiler as intrinsics:
unsigned __int64 __shiftleft128( unsigned __int64 LowPart, unsigne
+d __int64 HighPart, unsigned char Shift );
unsigned __int64 __shiftright128( unsigned __int64 LowPart, unsign
+ed __int64 HighPart, unsigned char Shift );
and probably in gcc (though I couldn't locate the names).
Using these, you can load two registers with two units of one of the bitstrings and when shifting the first register, bits from the second are shifted in.
Thus to process through the bitstrings 1 bit at a time, you use loops something like:
for( i = 0; i < ( lHay % 64 )+1; ++i ) {
r1 = *( hay + i ); r2 = *( hay + i + 1 );
for( b1 = 0; b1 < 64; ++b1 ){
__shiftleft128( r2, r1, 1 );
for( j = 0; j < ( lNdl % 64 )+1; ++j ) {
r3 = *( ndl + j ); r4 = *( ndl +j + 1 );
for( b2 = 0; b2 < 64; ++b2 ) {
__shiftleft128( r4, r3, 1 );
Except that:
At which point we not only need to reset the needle (inner pair?) loop;
we also need to reset the hay loop by the distance we successfully advanced before the failure, then advance one bit.
In answer to the traditional question: You've just pretty much read it!
The function definition and a few local variables:
U64 bsSearch( U64 *hay, U8 oHay, U64 lHay, U64 *ndl, U8 oNdl, U64
+lNdl ) {
register U64 r1, r2, r3, r4;
U64 i, j, rv;
U8 b1, b2;
return rv;
And the two separate loops above, and little else, despite many hours of though and scribbling on post-its.
I suspect that the right approach might include another subroutine that compares the needle to the haystack at a given, fixed offset;
but I'm stuck for how to code that such that it doesn't repeatedly shift one or both by an increasing number of bits each time it is called?
I also thought that it might make sense to copy the needle to an aligned chunk of memory, to eliminate its offset from the problem;
but it could be a very large piece of memory, which would be expensive.
Update:I suspect one or even two gotos may be needed; though I'd avoid them if I can.
Cluebats; pseudo-code; real-code of any flavour.
Basically anything that will make the penny drop as to how to code this beast?
I maintain a CPAN module Cisco::Management which I wrote / released when I was just learning how to write modules. Needless to say, there is much room for improvement and I've decided to break the monolithic code into sub-modules under the main Cisco::Management grouping.
This requires that I change the current API slightly:
So I thought I'd take the opportunity to standardize and change existing accessor calls as well as add all the missing ones.
I made note of this in the latest release (0.08) saying it was the last in this line / format. Not sure who actually reads the README / POD.
I don't want to clutter the namespace, abandon a module and start a new one if there is no need. I don't know how many people use this (I'm guessing very few) so impact may be minimal as long as backward compatibility is maintained for the first new API version release.

The file has one record per 58 lines. I can handle the fine parsing that will need to happen on the lines to pull out the variables but what I am having trouble wrapping my head around is a method for grabbing 58 lines at a time and then performing the necessary processes on each iteration. For example once I have the 58 lines read in I know that line 8-11 from position 1-39 contain the return address that I will be putting as "return1","return2","return3","return4" in the CSV file. This is going to happen on every record as well as each of the other pieces I need to parse.
I thought about just using a counter and resetting it after every 58 lines while looping through the entire file but that didn't seem like it would be the best solution. As I'm by no means an expert at perl I wanted to check here with you guys to see if anyone has a better place to start or some ideas on how to make this a bit more clean and efficient.
If you need any other information please let me know.
UPDATE: I found a control character other than newline in the data at the beginning of each record. I was able to use local $/ = "\014"; (was looking for newlines or double newlines and not this character) to pull the data into a variable one record at a time. I then split the data using my @lines = split /\n/, $record; into an array with one line per.
So now I believe I can pass the array to a subroutine, perform the checks and changes I need to on each of the lines, write the line out to a csv file and then move to the next record.
use Auto::Log;
my $log = new Auto::Log, "some.log";
...Write some code here...
print "INFO: This gets printed to the log file"
One could also use the log file in tee mode using a simple option.
I wanted to hear from users as to how they feel about this. What do you think? Do you think you'd like to use such a Perl module?
The principal use of this module is that all that a user ever needs to do is to use the print, or warn statements. One doesn't have to open a new file using open() or anything. In my opinion this saves effort for a regular programmer who wants to get code written fast.
Let me know what you think though.
Also, please do give some suggestions for the module name. Do you like the name 'Auto::Log'?
For testing purposes, I implemented Rivist's new crypto algorithm in Perl. It is a proposed replacement for his (once very popular) RC4 algorithm. Thought there might be some curiosity value to it.

Bilateral Control with Vertical Contracts
A supplier is known to be subject to opportunism when contracting secretly with downstream competitors, particularly when downstream firms have "passive beliefs.'' We stress that in many situations, an equilibrium with passive beliefs may not exist and passive beliefs appear less plausible than "wary beliefs,'' introduced by McAfee and Schwartz (1994). We show that in a broad range of situations, equilibria with wary beliefs exist and reflect opportunism. Last, we confirm the insight, derived by O'Brien and Shaffer (1992) using a more ad hoc equilibrium concept, that resale price maintenance (RPM) eliminates the scope for opportunism.
