The stock is a consistent loser. The S&P has been up 33% is the past 2 years with KOG has only been up 12%.
As AG Eric Holder would say,..."Nothing to see here folks, ... move along".
Getting on this bandwagon early
I think for as long as oil prices stay above $92 a barrel this company has a great opportunity to make some serious cash. I look forward to seeing my stake in the company grow over the next 2 to 3 years. Although this is a cyclical stock.
Its Bakken!!!!
Long. Oil and Gas. Revs up to $408M 2012 from $120M 2011, $31M 2010. Last quarter revs up over 100%. Trading at a 25x ttm and 10x fye earnings.
Trying to cash in on this growth story. The P/E is quite high at 25, but I think Kodiak is growing fast enough to support a continued rise in share prices. Growth obviously can't continue at their current rate, but even if they maintain half or 1/4 of their current growth rates, Kodiak will be a multi-bagger.
I have made some $ on this one , will add more soon
spec play jimy
Company just bought an addition 49,000 acres in the Bakken Oil Boom bringing holdings to 190,000+ acres... great price to get in now on Oil BOOM stocks
over the next year KOG should outpreform the S&P 500.
KOG has been knocked down maybe rightly so, because its cash flow has been used to purchase more land in the BAKKEN area, Williston area. If they can curtail their ambitions to be the largest land holder or so it seems, settle down and drill, drill, the cash flow will become greater pay down debt and balance their financial statement. Then and only then will the stock be valued in hard numbers, which it is not at this time. jlre2
Multi pad drilling , soon to be explored new zones and last but not least , most acreage will be held by production by the end of 2013 . Once they achieve maximum HBP , they will be free to put their capex to work on their best acreage. Also production will not fall as dramatically as some are predicting . They can implement secondary and tertiary recovery to keep profitable production going for many years .
Good stock
yes growth the peg
Based on research and market forecast, I believe that KOG is looking at a up trend in the coming years. 2013 is poised to be a very good year for KOG as they look to cut cost and expand accounts east and west, not just north and south as has been the recent trend. I'm sticking with the forecast and my gut and rolling the dice on the stock. I'm holding on the shares I have and I will more than likely buy more, as I have been in recent days with the most recent down slope, and making this stock a prominent player in my portfolio.
"Kodiak Oil & Gas (KOG) announced second-quarter earnings and showed that it has been successful in improving revenues and earnings so far this year."
This stock is bound to be a strong upward mover and it should show signs of it's good position soon.The price will show very good management as well as it's position in a growth industry...
Like others buying in on KOG, I'm putting my money down on the company being bought out. If that doesn't happen, then lowering production costs across the industry and their holdsing in the fabled Bakken will still give KOG upward momentum.
Pure Bakken play. Holds good properties, production ramping up nicely. But mostly a speculative buy-out candidate. I prefer PetroBakken or PetroBank for a longer term play.

I'm fantasizing about another man. Is this normal?
I'm four months pregnant and married to a wonderful man. I love him dearly, but for some reason I haven't been able to stop thinking about a certain male friend of mine since my pregnancy began. I've even had sexual dreams about him. I don't understand why this is happening now. Any advice?

Gotta love those pregnancy hormones right! I've been having some pretty hot dreams myself but the "star" isn't always the same man. Sometimes it's someone I saw during the day, sometimes it's someone I saw on the news. It's normal, it happens :) Don't worry too much about it, you are not alone!posted 02/17/2010 by NatesMom23
I had a dream about my ex-husband, scary thing was so did my fiance'. We are 20 weeks, and I have never cried like that after waking up. I not only felt guilt, but remorse, like I actually cheated on my fiance'. I woke him up and when I started telling him my dream, he started to tell me his. We believe it was what we ate. We both ate the same thing the night we had our dreams. I called my doctors' office and talked with his nurse, she said that food can trigger many dreams. I figure that maybe my fiance' heard me, or something to have the dream too. It wasn't the same dream, but still, for both of us to dream of my ex-husband at all. EWWWWW Our Skylar, what a kicker. I truly believe I'm carrying a field goal kicker, or soccer player.posted 02/08/2010 by Kelsey29
LOL!!! I've read these letters and considered it, and it seems to me it is a combination of your personal walls being down while you are sleeping, and letting your imagination take control. I'm a writer, and when I get pregnant, I get what I call hypersexual in my mind. When I'm awake, I'm after my husband. When I'm asleep, it could be anyone. I write some of my best work when I'm pregnant. My husband loves it. LOL!!! Tiancaposted 01/17/2010 by Tianca
Thank goodness. I'm 11 weeks pregnant and i've been having really odd dreams that i'm having sex with my ex again. My ex before my current boyfriend now. It was freaking me out and making me feel guilty about having these dreams, when i know i don't have feelings for him anymore. Now i know it's just horomones. Thank you sooo much! :o)posted 01/17/2010 by k_scep22
This is the funniest thing ever! The only time I have ever had sex dreams is when I am prego!!! ACTUALLYYY, I am now in my 2nd pregnancy and randomly had a sex dream about Ty Pennington from Extreme Makeover Home Addition and immediately called my mother... This was our convo... "Mom, I think I'm pregnant... Y? She asked... Because I just had a sex dream about Ty from that TV show you watch all the time! (Weird thing to talk to your Mom about I KNOW, but it was too funny to pass up!) ?We both had a giggle and I bought a pregnancy test the next day. Sure enough, Ty was right on schedule!!!

Completely normal and sometimes quite enjoyable lol. I love my husband dearly and would never want to really be with someone else but I have had quite a few "interesting" dreams since I have been pregnant about a man who comes into my store everyday and I wake up thinking WOW!!! Don't feel bad; it happens to everyone once in a while, who knows why, but enjoy it and dont feel guilty, you are ASLEEP and can't control them right?!posted 12/31/2009 by ShaneMarie1
Hello Mommies! My husband and I are expecting our second child and are happily married. When I was pregnant with our first child I had the same type of dreams. It freaked me out as well because it was so random and made me feel awful as a Wife. However, after discussing it with my doctor (as some others have said) it is just hormones bringing up the subconcious worry about the further commitment with your partner. It's just a temporary thing...don't get too wrapped up or stressed out about it! We Love our men and they know it! Enjoy the rest of pregnancy! ;0 )posted 12/31/2009 by Julian4.NowBabyBOY#2
I am 11 weeks and for the past 6 weeks every night I have these wild sex dreams. I am on pelvic rest so no sex for a month and it is killing me! I think these dreams are normal though.posted 12/18/2009 by kayli062286
Wow! I had one of those dreams just last night. I was trying to have sex with a male co-worker in the oddest place. I felt a little guilty but after reading that these vivid sex dreams are common during pregnancy, I feel less guilty. Thanks for sharing ladies.posted 07/23/2009 by mrsmommy10
I thought I was strange... and maybe I am... I have never been with a woman, or desired to be, in fact... But I have had many dreams about women. I woke up and told my husband (crying of course) and he was like "ooooh details". (made me cry more) I thought something was wrong for having sexual dreams, but I think it's all the hormones, and I'm having a boy so maybe that's part of the reason it's a woman. *SIGH*posted 06/10/2009 by a BabyCenter Member

Android Isn't Free
How Google's acquisition of Motorola Mobility will make it more like Apple.
Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer has a knack for making completely boneheaded predictions about his competitors' products, so when he took to blasting Google's Android strategy last year, many observers—myself included—dismissed him. It was obvious back then that Android was eating Microsoft's lunch and that it was beginning to nibble at Apple's heels, too. (As of March of this year, Android had actually inched ahead of Apple in mobile OS market share.) Microsoft and Google play similar roles in the phone business—they make the software that runs on phones, but they don't manufacture the phones themselves. In order to get their software out to the public, both companies must partner with handset manufacturers. But while Microsoft wanted phone makers to pay for the Windows Phone OS, Google was giving Android away. How could Ballmer ever compete with free? That's simple, he explained in several interviews: "There's nothing free about Android."
Ballmer argued that Android infringed on several companies' patents, and as a result, any firm that made Android phones would be forced to pay licensing fees to Microsoft and other patent holders. Patent-infringement cases aren't unusual in the tech business; pretty much any complex new technology is sure to run afoul of lots and lots of patents. Tech giants often work these problems out by "cross-licensing"—firms trade rights to their patents in exchange for other people's patents. But Google is a tech newbie, and it doesn't have many patents to trade. In June, it tried to purchase a cache of telecom-related patents from Nortel, but it lost that effort to a coalition of rivals (including Apple, Microsoft, and Research in Motion). Google's scrambling to get a load of patents with which to defend Android led to Monday's surprise announcement that it's spending $12.5 billion to purchase Motorola's former phone division. Motorola Mobility makes many popular Android smartphones, but it doesn't make much money doing so. (It has reported a net loss in recent quarters.) Consequently, its hardware business is an afterthought in this deal. What Google really wanted was Motorola's 17,000 patents.
In other words—and I never thought I'd say this—Steve Ballmer was right. Android isn't free. In fact, it's not even cheap. As Daring Fireball's John Gruber points out, the $12.5 billion that Google is spending for Motorola amounts to almost two years' worth of the search company's profits. No company—not even Google—can throw around that kind of cash without envisioning a direct return on its investment.
That's why I'm betting that this deal will represent a turning point in how Google operates Android. Today, the platform is "open" but chaotic—because phone-makers get the software for free and can do whatever they want with it, Android is available on some good phones as well as lots and lots of cheap, bad ones. In the aftermath of this deal, Google will seek to exert greater influence over hardware companies. Eventually, the deal will help reduce the number of new Android devices that are released every year, and the few that are released will be of generally higher quality—and sell for higher prices—than what we see in the Android device market today.
This won't happen overnight. Indeed, in a conference call announcing the deal, Google executives argued that the huge purchase won't change anything about Android. The Motorola division will run as a separate entity within Google. This arrangement is meant to reduce Motorola's ability to get preferential access to Android over other handset makers that use the OS. This is a signal that at Google, "openness" is still the ideal.
But that plan is untenable. To see why, it helps to understand how Google runs Android today. When you buy an Android phone, none of your money goes to the search company—remember, the phone manufacturer got the OS for free. Instead of taking a cut of the sale of phones, Google says, its main goal with Android is to keep a foothold for its websites in the emerging smartphone market. The theory is that every Android user will spend a lot of time using Google services and thus seeing Google ads.

Home : Brands : EmerginC : EmerginC Treatments :
While an apple a day may keep the doctor away, it's an orange or grapefruit that can help keep wrinkles at bay. Citrus fruits are rich in vitamin C, a powerful antioxidant that can neutralize the reactive particles that cause the cellular damage that leads to signs of aging. Vitamin C reduces these reactive particles to nothing more than harmless oxygen and water while brightening the tone of the complexion and assisting with collagen production. To reap the many benefits of vitamin C for the health and beauty of your skin, EmerginC Treatments Products are ideal.
The EmerginC Treatments Products collection is packed with vitamin C, fruit acids and other natural ingredients that effectively handle all of the emergencies that can plague the complexion. The treatments line contains solutions for everything from fine lines to hyperpigmentation to acne blemishes and treats these problems with natural, safe formulas. By adding the right EmerginC Treatments Products to your daily skin care regimen, you can improve the overall health of your skin while addressing the issues that keep you from looking your best.
To add one or more items to your bag, check the box to the left of each desired
item and then click the "Add to Bag" button at the top or bottom of the page. Items
are listed in SKU number order.
No matter what emergency is plaguing your complexion, the EmerginC Treatments Products can help with their natural formulas enriched with age-fighting, anti-inflammatory vitamin C.
The EmerginC Vitamin C Serum is a daily vitamin C formula for numerous skin care concerns. The highly concentrated gel offers effective protection from free radicals, making the treatment ideal for those concerned about the development of wrinkles. The formula also fights inflammation and skin discoloration with its low pH complex that does not irritate the skin. For those who require more intensive vitamin C therapy, the stronger EmerginC 20 Vitamin C Serum with 20 percent vitamin C is also available.
The EmerginC Vitamin C Cream is a mild formulation intended for those with sensitive complexions. Like the more potent vitamin C serums in the treatment collection, the cream creates a barrier on the complexion to limit the damage done by free radicals to the skin. The cream is also an effective complexion brightener and strengthens the skin tissue by promoting the production of collagen structural proteins.
The EmerginC Multi Vitamin and Retinol Serum accelerates cellular turnover to resurface the complexion. As a result, the serum decreases the depth of fine lines and wrinkles, making them less noticeable on the skin. The blend of vitamins present in the formula includes antioxidants for anti-aging protection and also helps supply the skin cells with the nutrients necessary to repair damage and produce collagen. The soothing ingredients present in the serum combat inflammation and redness.

Can a Night Owl Become a Morning Person?
A Slate experiment.
When I told my friends I had found a way to transform myself into a morning person, they responded in one of two ways. The night people leaned in as if I were about to reveal the location of a stash of pirate gold. The morning people simply regarded me with pity and wonder. "I just don't understand why it's so hard," said one friend, a Danish medical student. "I can get up anytime I want."
This sort of smugness is prevalent among morning people, who count among their ranks Nelson Mandela, Mahatma Gandhi, nearly every American president, and even Jesus. (See Mark 1:35: "And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.") Night people are stuck with psychopaths like Adolf Hitler and Juan Arreola, the guy in Pennsylvania who nearly killed his girlfriend's 2-year-old last year, explaining to a judge, "I'm not a morning person."
I'd always been a night owl, but for years I'd longed to defect to the other side. In my fantasies, I was a Fortune 500-type who threw off the covers at 5 and engineered a hostile takeover by 7. Instead, I generally stayed up until 1:30 in the morning, reading magazines or clicking aimlessly through Wikipedia, waking up grumpy and remorseful at 9:30, if not later. Over the years I'd tried all the usual tactics—multiple alarms, earlier bedtimes, lab-rat levels of caffeine—and nothing had worked.
When I left my office job and started freelancing, things got worse. One day, after crawling out of bed at 10:30, I decided enough was enough. I needed help. So, I called up a battery of doctors and sleep researchers and put the question to them: Can a night person rewire herself to fall asleep at a reasonable hour and jump out of bed in the morning like a farmer with chickens to feed?
They all said it could be done. "I do think there are people for whom genetically this is going to be much harder," said Dr. Gary Richardson, senior research scientist at the Henry Ford Hospital Sleep Disorders Center in Detroit, "but nobody for whom it's impossible."
Genetics play an important role in making morning people perky. Five years ago, researchers at the University of Surrey isolated a gene called Period 3 that appears to regulate our preferences for morning or night. But genes aren't the whole story. For as much as 80 percent of the population, the doctors said, what matters most is lifestyle—the people you befriend, the career you choose, how you use your free time. If you like watching Letterman, chances are you'll find a way to stay up for it.
So, how to counter my natural urges for late-night Scrabulous? First off, the doctors told me, I had to choose a new wake-up time—no more than two hours earlier than usual—and stick to it. No exceptions, including weekends. "You have to be rigid initially," insisted Dr. Donna Arand, clinical director of the Kettering Sleep Disorders Center at Kettering Memorial Hospital in Dayton, Ohio. "If you're a diehard night owl, you're trying to set a rhythm your body doesn't naturally cling to."
The next rule was that upon waking, I had to leave the house immediately for a half-hour walk. "Can't I just look out the window?" I asked. The answer was no: I needed bright morning light and lots of it. In your hypothalamus is a clump of cells called the suprachiasmatic nucleus that controls circadian rhythms. When light hits your retina, your SCN tells your body to stop pumping out melatonin, a hormone that makes you drowsy. When the light wanes, the melatonin production resumes, and in a few hours, you're ready for bed. By exposing myself to light earlier in the day, I'd train my SCN to shift the whole operation forward a few hours.
At night the routine was just the opposite: I had to avoid bright light starting a few hours before bedtime. But with five housemates and nary a dimmer switch, I was pretty sure I couldn't swing this one. A solution came from Timothy Monk, professor of psychiatry and director of the Human Chronobiology Research Program at the University of Pittsburgh. I should wear yellow sunglasses in the evening, he said. The colored lenses would block blue light—the part of the spectrum your internal clock is most responsive to—without making it impossible to see.
The doctors also suggested that I take an over-the-counter melatonin supplement six or seven hours before my old bedtime each day to help me adjust to the earlier bedtime. And I was supposed to swear off caffeine and alcohol—both of which can interfere with sleep—after 3 p.m. or so. If all went well, I'd make the shift in as little as two weeks. My boyfriend promised to make the transition with me. Which was good, since night owls and morning larks are more likely to bicker and spend time apart than are couples who share the same sleep habits.
At 6:30 on a weekday evening, I popped my first melatonin pill. Dr. Richardson had warned me that the pill might make me drowsy as soon as I took it, and sure enough, 15 minutes later my brain was shrouded in a thick fog. It felt like I had taken a teaspoon of Nyquil and I would now drift into a blissful, drugged sleep. Except that bedtime wasn't for another four hours.
The yellow glasses went on at 8 p.m. I looked like a cross between Bono and Henry Kissinger. At a get-together at a friend's house that evening, I wandered around in a sleepy, self-conscious haze. I went home at about 10 and picked up a novel to read in bed. A half-hour later, the book was slipping from my lifeless hands. So this is what being a morning person is like, I thought. It's like being 80 years old.
My alarm went off at 7 the next day. After a panicky wake-up, I realized I wasn't tired at all—I was full of bounce and vim. The melatonin pill had worked a miracle. "Time to get up!" I sang out, pulling up the blinds.
Outside, sleet fell from a heavy, gray sky. "This is the kind of morning that makes you glad to be alive," my boyfriend grumbled. As we embarked on our inaugural morning walk, I tried to appreciate the quiet streets and the small stores I had never noticed before. They were all closed. We were the only ones dumb enough to be outside at this hour.

subprocess module, no exception is thrown when the child process fails. In essence, what happened was the following (typed at the interactive Python prompt):
>>> import subprocess
>>> subprocess.check_call("false")
false command always exits with a nonzero exit code. The expected behavior, as confirmed on another machine, would be as follows:
>>> subprocess.check_call("false")
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 542, in check_call
raise CalledProcessError(retcode, cmd)
subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command 'false' returned non-zero exit status 1
So, what happens is that
subprocess thinks that the child process exited successfully, even though it did not.
This behavior, of course, wreaks total havoc with the application. Instead of an exception being thrown due to the failed child process, the application goes on and fails at a later point when it tries to do something based on the data received from the child process. This goes against the good design principle of failing early, as embodied by the way Python uses exceptions instead of error codes.
So, what is going on here? You may want to think it through and see if you can find the problem.
At first sight, this looks like a problem with either Python itself or with the OS (Linux, in our case). How could this happen? The colleague who first encountered this issue looked at it through the Python debugger, and got as far as the
wait() function of
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18
As seen in the code, if
os.waitpid on a child process fails with
ECHILD, an exception is not raised. The reason for this is that
ECHILD is returned in cases where there is no child process to be waited for. Normally, when a process terminates, the kernel keeps information such as its exit code until the parent calls
wait() on it. In the interim, the process is a so-called "zombie". If there is no child process (even not a zombie), we cannot know if it succeeded or failed.
The above piece of code went into Python's
subprocess module as part of a fix for another problem, as documented in this Python bug report.
Python chooses to assume that the child process exited successfully. Is this a correct assumption? Well, it's as good as any other. In the legitimate use case, namely when a process explicitly ignores
SIGCHLD since it isn't interested in the exit code of its child processes, it makes sense for
waitpid() to always complete successfully. Of course this can be argued against, but it is not a senseless assumption.
Do we by any chance ignore
SIGCHLD in our application? The chance we do is very small, since we run a lot of child processes and depend on their state all their time, and this fails only occasionally. A quick
git grep on the code shows that we do ignore
SIGCHLD in one specific standalone Python script, but that script is not part of the application and is run on a remote machine on which we indeed should ignore this signal.
At this point, I suspected (wrongly, as we shall see) that this was a problem with the specific host on which it happened, and resolved the issue as "Can't reproduce". Since this happened more than once, this was not ideal, so I asked other team members to keep an eye open in case this happened again.
Of course, a week later it happened again. Fortunately, this time it was caught as it happened and we could look at the live process in the debugger. My colleague Erez Horev called me over and we started looking at it together.
We easily reproduced the issue in the debugger. After a lot of dead ends, we concluded that the only logical way of this happening was indeed if the application ignored
SIGCHLD. To check if this was the case, we ran the following in the debugger:
1 2 3 4
Indeed –
SIGCHLD is being ignored by our application. How can this be? Nowhere in the code do we ignore
SIGCHLD, except for that standalone script, which runs only on the remote machine. Or does it?
At this point, the only thing left to do was to look at that script. It includes the following line, right at the top.
Could we, by any chance, have
imported this script as a module in our application, therefore running the above code as a side effect?
It turns out we were doing exactly that. In recently added code, under specific circumstances, our application imports the module in order to get its filename and to deploy it to the remote machine. While normally
import should be clean of side effects, the above
signal code appears at the module level and not inside a function, and is therefore run when imported. This contaminates our application and causes it to ignore
SIGCHLD with the described consequences.
Moving this line fixed the problem.
Mark Dalrymple, in his Thoughts on Debugging, Part 1, talks about the hierarchy of potential blame when debugging. In short, new code is the first suspect, after which come old code, library code etc. The point here is that the chance of there being a bug in Python is much smaller than that of there being a bug in your own code. Not only that, but the chance of the bug being in new code is the highest.
The idea of there being a bug in Python or an OS issue might have been valid, but it was not likely. The assumption that this could not happen since the relevant code does not run turned out to be false. The bug was indeed in our code, and in new code at that.
As a lesson from this, aside from some debugging ideas, please remember: Don't run any code that may have side effects at the module top level! Somehow, some day, your module will be imported by other code that may be hurt by this side effect. Put all code in functions, or use the Python
if __name__ == '__main__' construct.
A colleague asked me to look into a problem with him, mentioning that "Tlib hangs when we run it". Tlib is a fairly large project that is written in Python. His initial analysis showed that it hangs at a very early phase, during with it tries to fetch the latest version to run from a git server. Various users complained about the same problem, suggesting that it is not a local issue.
Running the code, and interrupting it with
^C when it hangs, turned up a result similar to the following:
^CTraceback (most recent call last):
File "./execute_wrong.py", line 8, in <module>
retval, out, err = execute("git ls-remote")
File "./execute_wrong.py", line 5, in execute
retval = p.wait()
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 1376, in wait
pid, sts = _eintr_retry_call(os.waitpid, self.pid, 0)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 476, in _eintr_retry_call
return func(*args)
Interesting. The code seems to hang while waiting for the
git child process to terminate. However, running
git ls-remote from the command line works fine, so why does it hang when run from the code?
Let's look at the code history to see if anything has changed recently.
Nope. A quick
git blame shows that this code is more than 5 years old, and has been performing flawlessly every day since then. So what else has changed?
Let's see what is happening while waiting for the
git child process to finish, by running
strace on the process:
$ strace -p 5774
Process 5774 attached
write(1, "pull/624/merge\n2fe9da91f5a4b5ba3"..., 4096
OK. The process is trying to write to
stdout, but hanging while doing so. It looks like some buffer is getting filled, which blocks the process from writing further.
Let's look at the size of the data returned by the child process:
$ git ls-remote | wc -c
From gitserver:/git/qa/tlib
Aha! This number looks suspiciously like "a bit more than 64k". Which affirms our hypothesis. Let's try to reduce its size by deleting some old remote branches:
$ git push origin :old_branch1
$ git push origin :old_branch2
$ git ls-remote | wc -c
From gitserver:/git/qa/tlib
Now to run the program again… It worked! The program continues to run successfully.
Here is what the original code looked like (slightly changed to protect the innocent). Can you spot what is wrong?
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
The problem is that we
wait() for the process to terminate, without reading its output. Only after it terminates do we read its output. This code has worked correctly for years, since the output so far happened to be smaller than 64k and fitted completely in the pipe's buffer. Once it exceeded the buffer's size due to one remote branch too many, it blocked the process on the pipe, while the parent was waiting for it to terminate. A classic deadlock condition.
Now that we see the problem, fixing it is simple: First read, then wait.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Unfortunately, as Alon Horev and Baruch Even pointed out in theirs comments, this is still not correct. Since we try to read from
stdout until it gets an EOF and only then try to read from
stderr, the
stderr pipe's buffer can fill up if the child process writes a lot of data to it.
The correct solution involves reading from both pipes in tandem. The
communicate() method of the
Popen class implements this using the
select() system call on POSIX, and with threads on Windows platforms.
Buffers, filesystems, databases will all fill up sometime in the future. Always take this into account when writing code. Any time you generate some data, be sure to set up a process to prune the data and don't assume that it will be OK – because it will come back to bite you, or at least some future user of your code.]]>
One issue I encountered with the current design is that it is quite difficult to make a clean separation between code running locally and code running remotely. This turns debugging any problem involving execution of remote code into an incredibly complicated endeavor.
Much clarity could be gained by changing the architecture of this project to be more explicitly distributed. This would involve several agents running on multiple hosts that communicate amongst themselves to get the work done. The agents would have a clean and documented API, making them usable and testable as standalone components, as well as allowing them to act on behalf of a central process. All remote execution would be explicit, using one single method for any kind of execution – be it shell commands, Python code or anything else.
Our existing codebase makes heavy use of RPyC, a native Python RPC implementation, for remote execution of arbitrary Python code on remote machines.
Using a variant of RPC sounds like a great solution. RPyC is also a very nice and seamless tool. Code that is running remotely looks just like code that is running locally. Which is the exact reason for why I don't like using it: I don't want transparent RPC! I want it to be immediately clear which code runs locally and which code runs remotely. "Seamless" RPC encourages the writing of spaghetti code, because it's so easy to mix local and remote code. This makes it deceptively easy to write distributed code without thinking about the design of the API and about which parts should reside on each side of the connection. Code can quickly become an intermix of RPC calls with local calls, causing it to be an opaque blob that is impossible to test or debug. In addition, its performance can quickly deteriorate: Objects are being serialized back and forth all the time, and tens of implicit network round-trips introduce latency all around the code.
Of course, the tool is not necessarily at blame here. The problem may lie with those developers who use it incorrectly, instead of designing a clean distributed model around it – which is certainly possible. But I tend to find that the thoughts and practices of developers become molded to the tools they have at hand. A tool that encourages calling remote code without a conscious effort makes it too easy to avoid thinking about the distributed design.
So, yes, I don't like RPC, especially not stateful RPC that supports access of remote objects by reference. I can live with simple designs like XML-RPC, supporting value-based RPC with native data types, which are fairly easy to understand and debug: There are no remote objects, just data that is passing back and forth. But I dislike tools that try to hide everything under a shiny exterior, and try to act as if remote code were just the same as local code, and as if remote objects actually exist locally with magic proxies doing all the work behind the scenes.
The above is just one of the issues in the long-standing debate regarding RPC vs. Messaging. If you're at all interested in this debate, I heartily recommend reading some of the articles by Steve Vinoski, who is a leading expert on the matter and writes on it very eloquently. This presentation summarizes his viewpoint quite nicely, and I quite agree with many of his points.
So, I'm looking for a good tool to create a distributed architecture that is based on explicit message passing. It should be able to send and receive native Python data types by value. It should be nicely designed, clearly documented, and should make the distinction between local code and remote code crystal clear to the developer.
I am currently investigating and evaluating several solutions. Most of them are based on the excellent ZeroMQ messaging library, along with some kind of serialization tool such as MsgPack. There are several good candidates. I'll write more about it as I make progress.]]>
One of the recurring issues that I encounter as a software developer is that of having to decide where on the scale between YAGNI and NIH I want to be. You are probably wondering what the hell I am talking about (unless you're one of those people who are nodding your head now and smiling), so I'll explain.
YAGNI stands for "You ain't gonna need it", and refers to a software development principle according to which you don't want to start writing a huge bunch of code up front until you know exactly what you are going to need. Since software requirements change all the time, and one of the common maladies of many code bases is superfluous complexity due to over-engineering and over-abstraction, it makes a lot of sense to implement only what you know you are going to need right now, and leave the rest for later.
NIH stands for "Not Invented Here", and refers to a reluctance among some software developers to base their work on code written by someone else: "Hey, I can do this myself, so why should I use this existing project"? This leads people to reinvent the wheel time and again, creating a proliferation of half-baked solutions to problems that have been solved fairly well at other times and places. In addition to the waste of resources in the creating the solution in the first place, it also creates yet another maintainability headache.
I consider myself a firm believer in the YAGNI principle, and a staunch opponent of the NIH syndrome: I try to avoid writing code that could stay unwritten, since I consider a large codebase a liability rather than an asset. Writing more code means having to expend more resources on maintaining it. In many corporate cultures, it also decreases the ability to respond to change, due to a reluctance to throw away existing code (which is often due to sentimental reasons rather than objective ones).
Now, as software developers, many of us would much rather write new code than maintain a bunch of old code.
One reason for this is that old code bases tend to have accumulated a lot of baggage over the years, and we love the idea of getting rid of all that and starting with a fresh, blank page: All those old bugs can be forgotten, all those workarounds and little tricks can be left behind.
Another reason is that good developers love to learn new ideas and techniques and are itching to try them out. Seeing our own old code after a few months or years make us cringe with the feeling, "who was the idiot that wrote this?!". We are sure that the code we're going to write now, with our new and shiny tools, will be better by leaps and bounds. And then the cycle starts all over again.
I'd like to argue that in the corporate world, as opposed to the Open Source world, writing new code can be an irresponsible thing to do. In the corporate world, we write code not just to scratch our own itches. We're creating something that may very well continue to exist long after we have moved on to greener pastures. Other people will have to maintain what we created. Adhering to good software engineering principles means that not only our own lives will be easier down the road, but also those of other people.
Now, those who profess not to care about the experience of other people, or who think that at the very least it is less important that their own experience, may want to consider a few points:
First of all, those "other people" may be yourselves a few months or years from now, trying to adapt your own code to new requirements. Suddenly, all this code is no longer new nor fun, and you'll have to dig in to adapt it to the required changes.
Second, those other people may be your future co-workers, managers or employees. They will remember what you left them with.
Third, people will appreciate your efforts to make their lives easier (or at least won't hate you for making it harder). This increases the likelihood that they will want to work with you in the future.
So all this makes sense even from a perfectly selfish point of view.
When faced with a new software problem to solve, I always spend a significant amount of energy in investigating existing solutions and see if they can work for me. I will resort to writing code only if I fail to find a solution that has enough similarity or has a good enough quality. Of course, as my friend Eli claims, this may very well mean that I often pass on the chance to be creative by deferring to existing solutions. But that's something I can live with: I feel the need to reach the right balance between creativity and responsibility.
I can find creativity in ways other than writing a lot of new code: I'd rather leverage existing code that I like and that is maintained by a third party (which becomes more and more commong with the huge Open Source ecosystem). It is more important to me to feel happy with a solution than it is to prove to myself that I can solve a problem that has been solved before by others. That just seems so wasteful.
In an upcoming post, I will analyze a specific case that I encountered in light of the above thoughts.]]>
The easiest and cheapest method to set up a lot of initiators without actually purchasing zillions of FC HBAs would be to use N_Port ID Virtualization, a.k.a. NPIV. This method allows a single FC HBA to present itself to the FC fabric with multiple WWPNs. This, in turn, allows the creation of many connections to the target storage device from a small number of hosts.
WWPNs can't just be pulled out of thin air. They are allocated – in chunks – by a central authority, the IEEE Registration Authority. Just making up random WWPNs could cause trouble for two reasons:
With physical (as opposed to virtual) HBAs, this is managed by allocating a OUI (Organizationally Unique Identifier) to every vendor, who in turns tacks on his own vendor-specific serial number to come up with a unique WWPN. This is similar to the MAC address allocation of Ethernet, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth devices.
The textbook solution for our problem would have involved the use of an officially allocated OUI to generate legal WWPNs, but that seemed like overkill for lab project which would never be used on a production SAN.
We now require a kind of a compromise which takes care of the above two issues without causing too much bureaucratic pain. To reach such a solution, we'll refer to the IEEE's Guidelines for Fibre Channel Use of the Organizationally Unique Identifier (OUI), and cheat a bit.
Let's assume that we have an FC HBA with a WWPN of
We'll decode it according to the IEEE Guidelines:
\___/ \______/ \______/
| | |
| | |
| | \__ Vendor-specific part (24 bits)
| |
| \__ Vendor OUI (24 bits)
\__ This WWPN uses the Original WWN format
According to this diagram, our sample WWPN contains the following information:
10:00 prefix means that it uses the original WWN format (a.k.a. "NAA IEEE 48-bit address format"), as opposed to newer formats that starting with another sequence
00:00:c9, which is an OUI belonging to Emulex Corporation
(according to the OUI list)
93:53:6d, which is 24 bits long
For every physical WWPN, we need to be able to generate up to 256 virtual WWPNs to be used with NPIV (assuming that each HBA port supports up to 256 virtual ports). The trick lies in reusing the vendor-specific part to generate multiple WWPNs per physical port, each of which would be guaranteed to be unique throughout the lab.
For that, we rely on the existence of a newer WWN format ("NAA IEEE Registered") that has more space for the vendor-specific part:
| | |
| | |
| | \__ Vendor-specific part (extended to 36 bits)
| |
| \__ Vendor OUI (still 24 bits)
\__ Newer WWN format (NAA IEEE Registered)
Good, we now have 36 bits for the vendor-specific part!
We will use the larger vendor-specific field to include both the vendor-specific part of the physical ports WWPN (which is just 24 bits), and our own 12-bit custom part. This will let us generate up to 212 = 4096 virtual ports per physical port, which is more than enough.
Just to be safe, and to avoid a future clash with HBAs from the same vendor who might use the new numbering scheme as well, we'll modify the OUI to a currently unused one (
0000c8 instead of
0000c9). This is of course not 100% future-proof, but is good enough for our purposes.
This leads us to the following range of generated WWPNs:
Original WWPN:
10:00:00:00:c9:93:53:6d, semantically represented as:
1000 0000c9 93536d
\____/ \____/
| |
vendor |
Generated WWPN range:
5 0000c8 93536d 000
5 0000c8 93536d 001
5 0000c8 93536d 002
5 0000c8 93536d fff
\____/ \____/ \_/
| | |
vendor | custom
While still being a hack, the above scheme allows us to generate as many WWPNs as we need.
It has the advantage of being intuitive, since it is easy to determine just by looking at the WWPNs which ones of them are physical (starting with
1000 0000c9) and which are virtual (starting with
5 0000c8).
It also makes it easy to see which virtual WWPNs belong to each physical port, which is important for debugging purposes: The serial number of the physical port (
93536d) is part of the virtual port's WWPN as well.
The original code was fairly simple: It decides whether certain "dead" components need to be "revived", and presents the user with a prompt to choose from one of several actions. Depending on the user's choice, the code then proceeds to take the appropriate action:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14
We now wanted to add some new functionality to the above code, namely the ability to allow the user to select a subset of the components that he wants to revive.
To make things more foolproof, in case the user chose to revive selected components but then neglected to select any components from the list, the code would not proceed blindly but rather send the user back to the menu so that he could try again.
The first version of the new code looked like this:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25
To get the required behavior, we used an infinite
while True loop that terminates with an
break when a valid choice is made by the user and reiterates otherwise.
This ensures that we don't continue until a valid choice is made.
The problem with the above method is that the flow control is not immediately apparent when looking at the code: It's not obvious that the infinite loop should actually terminate in all but one case. A future developer could easily break this behavior.
In addition, the
elif ladder becomes a bit too long to read
The second iteration was meant to make the flow control clearer:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28
We use several techniques here to improve the clarity of the code:
We used internal functions to encapsulate the possible actions to take. The advantage of using internal functions is that it keeps the external namespace clean, and the naming of each function makes its purpose quite clear.
We used a dictionary instead of the
elif construct. Since Python
doesn't have a
switch or
case statement, this is a more readable replacement.
We decided to use an exception to signify, well, exceptional flow control: If the user hasn't selected any components, this warrants exceptional behavior. This technique is much debated, but we felt like it was appropriate in this case.
The function name to be called is determined dynamically at runtime from the user's selection. The idea was to avoid code duplication by needing to specify the names of the functions yet again (but see below).
My colleague pointed out that the
locals().get('choice_%s' % choice)() trick
is not quite readable. I agreed, and was happy to accept his improved proposal:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19
This version has several advantages:
It doesn't use "magic" to achieve the selection of the function. Duplication is better than magic in this case, since it makes the code more readable.
The dictionary is created using the
dict() syntax instead of the
syntax, which gets rid of a lot of punctuation and makes the code clearer.
It turns out that even in such a simple piece of code, several programming techniques can be used to make the code clearer to read and maintain.
See you next time!]]>

Plato's Return
Rebecca Newberger Goldstein resurrects the Greek philosopher in an audacious, brainy book.
Plato takes on Bill O'Reilly! The great philosopher, dead for 2,400 years, argues with Amy Chua! And Daniel Dennett! And Google! This is philosopher-novelist Rebecca Newberger Goldstein's hook in her audacious new book Plato at the Googleplex, a hybrid of a careful overview of Plato and a series of imagined dialogues between Plato and contemporary interlocutors. "Plato at the 92nd Street Y" pits him against the Chua-ish "Warrior Mother" Sophie Zee, discussing Republic's hypothetical "city of pigs" and testing out in the Myers-Briggs typology as an INTJ (just like yours truly); "Plato on Cable News" has him exchanging blows with a bloviating Bill O'Reilly clone named Roy McCoy. And yes, here is Plato at the Googleplex, debating an engineer over the possibility of crowdsourcing ethics, as well as wryly comparing its communal environment to the training of young philosopher-kings in the Republic. (I used to work for Google, and believe me, we had it way better than Plato's ascetic Guardians.)
By alternating between these new "Platonic dialogues" and a serious chronicle of Plato's life and philosophy, Goldstein makes a plea for the continuing importance of philosophy as Plato (427–347 B.C.) conceived it, and for the enduring relevance of Plato's contributions. And she retells what clearly was a formative event in Plato's life: how Plato's mentor Socrates, through speech alone, came to be seen as so dangerous to Athenian society that he was put to death.
What are Plato's contributions? Plato's own views are elusive because he never wrote in his own voice, only through characters speaking in dialogue. But just as we do not look to Shakespeare or Goethe for a well-defined political worldview, Goldstein suggests that the value lies not in Plato's particular proposals but in his questions and methodologies, the process in the dialogues by which ideas are considered, debated, and often rejected.
The dominant character in almost all of Plato's dialogues is Socrates. He is hardly portrayed consistently across the dialogues, but we have several sources on the real Socrates, 40 years Plato's senior, whom Plato knew and clearly esteemed. Goldstein tells his story well, culminating in a moving and dramatic chapter, "Socrates Must Die." Socrates, born in 469 B.C., was a self-declared "gadfly" in Athens while incessant wars between city-states were causing Greek society to self-destruct. Socrates acquired a vivid public reputation as a masterful debater who could poke holes in anyone's beliefs, while maintaining that he himself was sure of nothing but his own ignorance. After the temporary downfall of Athenian democracy and a takeover by the so-called Thirty Tyrants, the restored democracy put Socrates on trial in 399 B.C. for what may or may not have been trumped-up charges: disrespecting the gods and corrupting the youth. The jury found him guilty and sentenced him to death, and Socrates drank the hemlock that killed him.
Plato chronicles Socrates' trial and death in a series of dialogues (the Apology, Crito, and Phaedo), but can they be trusted? I think it safe to say that Plato despised Athens for executing such a brilliant mind, and Plato's Socrates is meant at least partly as hagiography. It's easy to get behind Plato's Socrates as he demolishes the confused, empty piety of Euthyphro, or as he makes a noble case for virtue being its own reward. It might have been less easy to get behind the real Socrates, who encouraged some seriously troubled characters such as Alcibiades (who was also one of Socrates' lovers) and the tyrant Critias. Goldstein does not shirk from that question and spends quite a bit of time on bad boy Alcibiades, who seems to have combined the worst excesses of Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, and George S. Patton in helping to drive Athens to ruin. Yet Goldstein argues that Socrates was ultimately executed because he deferred to no one's authority and tore down Athens' idealized image of itself. In the claustrophobic public life of Athens, Socrates was tolerated (barely) when times were good, but condemned as a dangerous nuisance when things took a turn for the worse. When Leslie Gelb, reflecting on the rush to war in Iraq, spoke of the media and foreign policy experts' "disposition and incentives to support wars to retain political and professional credibility," he explained exactly why Socrates (who, like Plato, never took payment from students) was so irritating to the chattering classes of Athens: He ruined their credibility. His message, paraphrased by Goldstein as "Don't be so hasty in donning yourselves with laurels," fits America all too well today.
Plato, then, took Socrates' critical attitude and generalized it beyond morality and politics to the search for truth in all its forms. Plato may lack the scientific trappings of Aristotle, such as they were, but he possessed one keen insight that Aristotle ignored, and, one that eventually proved crucial to the scientific mentality: Our senses lie. It is not just enough to question our received cultural ideas and our intuitions; the most self-evident truths around us may prove to be nothing of the kind. The classic example is, of course, that the Earth goes around the sun and not the other way around, something we now take for granted but which still goes counter to every bit of visual evidence we possess. The rediscovery of Plato in the Renaissance heralded the scientific revolution; perhaps a coincidence, perhaps not.
And since the more general revival of interest in Greek culture in the 19th century, Plato has been taken as many things. The great 19th-century English radical George Grote, who wrote an enormous tome on Plato, deemed him a liberal before his time, the champion of free thought. Philosopher of science Karl Popper declared Plato the founder of totalitarianism, while radical journalist I.F. Stone found that Socrates really had been an enemy of the people. The followers of political philosopher Leo Strauss believed that Plato revealed his real thought only to those in the know (i.e., Leo Strauss), creating a sadly influential "cult [for] neoconservative yuppies," in the words of the great Plato scholar Gregory Vlastos.
What to make of these conflicting views? Better to listen to Platonic scholar and philologist Holger Thesleff: "Too often, over the centuries, have Plato's thought experiments been understood as his convictions or as revelations of profound truths." Many of the dialogues are quite inconclusive, such as the dark Gorgias, which clearly served as Goldstein's inspiration for Plato's visit to Fox News. Just as "Roy McCoy" puts up invincible ignorance to everything Plato says, Callicles in the Gorgias refuses to be convinced by any of Socrates' ethical arguments, preferring to advocate for the brutal "law of nature." E.R. Dodds wrote that the Gorgias is Plato's most modern dialogue: "The twin problems which it exposes—how to control the power of propaganda in a democracy, how to re-establish moral standards in a world whose traditional standards have disintegrated—these are also the central problems of the twentieth century." And the answers are still not forthcoming, only the questions, and the process of searching.

Statement by Mr. Ken Mukai
Counsellor, Permanent Mission of Japan to the United Nations
Organization of Work
The Fifth Committee
Sixty-third Session of the United Nations General Assembly
October 3, 2008
Mr. Chairman,
At the outset, my delegation would like to join others in welcoming you, as the new Chairman of the Fifth Committee, your staff and the new bureau members. My delegation would also like to express its appreciation to Ms. Asha-Rose Migiro, Deputy Secretary-General for her introductory statement. My delegation also welcomes the new senior management of the Secretariat, Ms. Angela Kane, Ms. Catherine Pollard, and Mr. Jun Yamazaki. We are ready and willing to cooperate and work closely with you and the new team.
Mr. Chairman,
This is the year of Human Resources Management (HRM). My delegation concurs with the Secretary-General that the human resources are the UN's most precious resources. We should, therefore, devote adequate time on this item. The issues of contractual arrangements and condition of service, important as they are, have to be considered in conjunction with key aspects of human resources policies, which include mobility, geographic distribution, career development, performance evaluation, and accountability. Our goal is to make current human resources management functional. Common system and pension need also to be discussed in a synchronized manner with the HRM.
Accountability is a key for the effective management. What we are asking over the years is not just to "explain and justify," but to take responsibility for action or lack of action.
Mr. Chairman,
As was often stated since last year, we are concerned with the piece-meal approach of the budget requests. Even today, proposals on HRM, Information Communication Technology /Enterprise Resource Planning /Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery, and Secretariat reforms are submitted literally in a piece-meal manner, one after another without fully complying with the established budgetary process. We are concerned over the lack of comprehensiveness of the budget proposals on these items. Such an approach hinders the predictability for the Member States and seriously erodes the budgetary discipline of the United Nations. We strongly request the Secretariat to refrain from making further budgetary proposals through this approach.
My delegation is committed to the necessary reform of the Organization and is ready to discuss any proposals. However, we should not forget that the high price tags attached to the reform proposals are raising the stakes of investing into these proposals. We need to minimize the price tags by carefully examining the costs and benefits of each reform proposal. And the coherence and clear line of command are prerequisites for such deliberations.
Mr. Chairman,
My delegation would also like to request the Secretariat to submit the budget documents on Special Political Missions, ITY and ICTR, the Budget Outline for 2010-11, the First Performance Report of this current biennium and the Programme Budget Implications in due time for proper consideration.
At the same time, Article 5, Part C of ANNEX of the General Assembly resolution 42/211 clearly stipulates that a deadline should be set for the consideration of statements of programme budget implications and proposals for revised estimates. Without such deadline, the Fifth Committee may see endless submission of PBI statements, belated issuance of the consolidated statement of all PBIs, and a detrimental impact to the Programme of Work at the end of this main session.
As for the proposals to strengthen the Department of Political Affairs and the Development Pillars of the Organization, my delegation believes that these proposals should be considered strictly on their own merits.
Mr. Chairman,
Japan places great importance on the issue of the scale of assessments. We can assure you that my delegation will engage in these negotiations with good faith.
During the next three months, we face daunting challenges. Timely submission of documents is essential for us to do any meaningful work. My delegation, on its part, assures you that it will engage in negotiations in a constructive manner, with a view to steering the Organization towards efficiency and effectiveness.
I thank you, Mr. Chairman.

Intraoperative Folate-fluorescein Conjugate (EC17) Lung Cancer (CA)
- Full Text View

- How to Read a Study Record
According to the World Health Organization, lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer-related death in men and women, and is responsible for 1.3 million deaths worldwide annually as of 2004. Surgery remains the best option for patients presenting with operable Stage I or II cancers, however the five year survival rate for these candidates remains at a dismal 53% for Stage I and 32% for Stage II. The high rates of recurrence suggest that surgeons are unable to completely detect and remove primary tumor nodules in a satisfactory manner as well as lingering metastases in sentinel lymph nodes. By ensuring a negative margin through imaging during surgery it would be possible for us to improve the rates of recurrence free patients and thus overall survival.
Thoracic malignancies are the ideal disease to investigate intra-operative imaging. Over 85% of lung and pleural malignancies express folate receptor alpha (FRA). It is important to note that FRA is expressed only in the proximal tubules of the kidneys, activated macrophages, and in the choroidal plexus. Thus, the false positive detection rate is expected to be extremely low. A group well known to us in the Netherlands has completed a pilot study utilizing a folate-fluorescein isothiocyanate (folate-FITC) conjugate in 12 patients with ovarian cancer. Another group of investigators in Mayo have subsequently performed this study on 20 more patients without any serious adverse events (personal communication). They report excellent sensitivity and specificity with this technique with only grade 1 side effects (allergic reaction). All side effects reversed when the injection was halted. Patients with a history of allergic reactions to insect bites should not participate (fluorescein is derived from the firefly insect, folate is an essential vitamin).
