Introduction Background Data Methods Results Summary and limitations 2 1. Introduction • One key challenge in Information Extraction is distilling instances of certain types of information from unstructured, natural language text data (McCallum 2005) • In the case of Named Entity Recognition (NER), this includes people, organizations, locations, and other Named Entities (NE) that are referred to by a name (Bikel et al. 1999) 3 • For different domains, text sets and research questions, different types of information can be of interest • Such alternative sets of relevant entity classes can be specified and organized in ontologies or taxonomies 4 • Previous research has shown that one area with a strong yet unsatisfied need for the automated extraction of various instances of entity classes from texts is the analysis of socio-technical networks such as business corporations, Web2.0 communities, governmental organizations, or covert networks 5 • We refer to the instances of entity classes as entities, and to the process of retrieving entities from texts as ontological text coding • The methodology presented herein facilitates ontological text coding by automatically identifying and classifying entities in texts, where the entity classes do not need to match the traditional set of NE 6 • The entities that are retrieved as a result of this process may then be used as nodes for the construction of socio-technical networks • Such networks are typically represented and stored as relational data, in which the nodes are the entities of interest, and edges are the relationships between the nodes 7 • In the case of social networks, for instance, people are represented as nodes that are tied together via friendship relations or co-authorship ties • We envision researchers and analysts in business and management, organization science and behavior, public policy, and linguistics and rhetoric, among others, applying the presented technique as one crucial step in the process of efficiently distilling relational data from text data sets 8 Outline 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Introduction Background Data Methods Results Summary and limitations 9 2. Background • For text analysis projects with a focus on sociotechnical systems, one applicable ontology is the meta-matrix • The meta-matrix is a multi-mode, multi-plex model that describes the entity classes agent, event, knowledge, location, organization, resource, and task – Each entity can furthermore have attributes, e.g. the attribute of agent John might be age, 42 and gender, male – In the meta-matrix, time, including both explicit dates such as 14-08-2008 and expressions such as tomorrow morning, is also modeled as an attribute 10 • For this project, we use the meta-matrix as an ontology with the mentioned entity classes organized on the same hierarchical level (see Fig. 1) 11 • The relationships among the entities within and across any entity class form certain types of networks – For example, a social network is composed of ties among agents – and a membership network consists of connections between agents and organizations • The meta-matrix model allows for analyzing sociotechnical systems as a whole or in terms of one (onemode network) or more (multi-mode network) of the cells contained in the model 12 • This framework has been used to empirically assess organizational structure, dynamics, power, and vulnerability in a diversity of contexts such as – situational awareness in distributed work teams (Weil et al. 2006) – email communication in corporations (Carley et al. 2006) – political debates and decision making processes (Hampe et al. 2007) – brand communities (Feldstein 2007) – and counter terrorism (Diesner and Carley 2005, 2006) 13 • "Named Entity Recognition" typically refers to the extraction of named examples or instances of the entity classes agent, organization and location • In this paper we are concerned with developing a methodology and computational solution for the more general task of identifying both named and unnamed examples of entities from an arbitrary ontology or set of entity classes – For example, we might be interested in tasks (e.g. signing a contract), resources (e.g. vehicles) or knowledge (e.g. expertise in data analysis) • We refer to this task with the broader term "Entity Extraction" 14 • The following example illustrates the Entity Extraction task • In the following excerpt from a UN News Service (New York) article released on 12-28-2004 we have underlined the entities relevant with respect to the meta-matrix categories 15 • From this text snippet, the network shown in Fig. 2 can be extracted. Please note that in this paper we focus on extracting and classifying nodes, while disregarding how they are linked into statements. For simplicity, the link formation approach taken for this example is based on word proximity in the text 16 • We define Entity Extraction as a two step process – In the identification step, terms that can be associated with an entity class of the ontology under consideration need to be correctly located in the texts • For this paper, the meta-matrix serves as the ontology • As terms we consider unigrams (e.g. WFP) as well as meaningful N-grams (e.g. the trigram World Food Programme) • Identification implies the correct location of term boundaries from their beginning to their end terms 17 – In the subsequent classification step, the identified entities need to be classified as one or more of the applicable entity classes • Mapping text terms to entities classes is a non-exhaustive and non-exclusive process • "Non-exhaustive" means that not all terms in the texts need to be mapped to a class. map, associate terms Ontology 18 – Typically, words forming a large proportion of a text are irrelevant (e.g. the, today, called). In the sample text shown above for example, only 11 out of 28 words map to metamatrix categories – In more randomly picked examples and across corpora, this ratio is likely to be much smaller • "Non-exclusive" means that relevant terms might be associated with one or more entity types, depending on the given context – For example, World Food Programme can be a resource in the context of providing aid, and an organization in the context of negotiating parties 19 • Ultimately, the goal of Entity Extraction in the described problem domain is the identification and classification of instances of various entity classes in text data as efficiently and accurately as possible • We expect the outcome of this process to facilitate the automated extraction of relevant nodes for coding texts as social-technical networks according to the meta-matrix model • Furthermore, we suggest exploring the methodology presented herein for its general applicability to ontological text coding based on a variety of ontologies 20 • If instances of the meta-matrix categories are to be identified in text data and subsequently classified, some list or mechanism needs to associate relevant words with one or more entity classes • Lists that contain the set of relevant terms for a given domain or research problem might exist in some cases, such as all agents in a parliament or 議會 all countries and languages in the world 21 • However, such positive filters are unlikely to generalize well to unrelated projects, new data sets, or across time due to their incompleteness, static nature, spelling variations, and lack of synonym sets, among other issues • These limitations suggest that Entity Extraction is a nondeterministic process, which calls for an alternative solution • If training data was available, one way to approach Entity Extraction could be supervised machine learning 22 Outline 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Introduction Background Data Methods Results Summary and limitations 23 • Supervised machine learning requires labeled data for training and testing • More specifically, for Entity Extraction, a corpus is needed that is marked with the beginnings, endings, and classifications of relevant instances of entity classes 24 • Traditional NER learning sets typically cover the categories 雜項 – person, organization, location, miscellaneous (conglomerate of other named entities), and other (irrelevant words) (e.g. CoNLL 2003) – While these entity classes can be mapped to parts of the meta-matrix (agent, organization, and location, respectively), other categories (e.g. task, resource, knowledge) are missing 25 • Over the last decade, the classical set of NE has been extended to also cover time (e.g. dates), quantities (e.g. monetary values), geographicalpolitical entities (e.g. countries), and facilities (e.g. buildings) (MUC 2006; LDC/ACE 2007), among others 26 • However, none of the existing NER corpora fully covers the entity classes of the meta-matrix • Our search for alternative, appropriately tagged data sets led us to the BBN Pronoun Coreference and Entity Type Corpus (BBN in the following) (Weischedel and Brunstein 2005) 27 • BBN was originally prepared for question answering tasks. The corpus contains approximately 1.1 million words organized in 95 XML files • BBN's categories map closely to the meta-matrix: – all meta-matrix categories are represented, though mostly with a different name, while some additional classes are present in BBN that are irrelevant for the meta-matrix (e.g. sport games) 28 • In order to align BBN's categories with those of the meta-matrix, we matched and merged the BBN corpus' 12 NE types and 64 NE subtypes to fit the meta-matrix model • Table 1 provides details on the mapping process. In total, BBN contains 169,084 instances of metamatrix categories. 29 …… 30 • In total, BBN contains 169,084 instances of metamatrix categories • Figure 5 (in the results section) shows how many instances of each of the meta-matrix categories are contained in BBN • The other category in Fig. 5 is a collection of terms that are tagged as relevant instances in BBN, but that are irrelevant with respect to the meta-matrix (e.g. sport games) • Working with the data revealed that the original BBN data had XML consistency issues, which we corrected for 31 32 Outline 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Introduction Background Data Methods Results Summary and limitations 33 4. Methods • In order to select an appropriate learning technique, the characteristics of the training data need to be considered: – First, the data is sparse 過多 • This means that even though a plethora of text data is available, only a small portion of the data is entities of interest, while the vast majority is irrelevant • In the BBN corpus, for instance, about 15 percent of the words represent instances of meta-matrix categories 34 • Data sparseness is one characteristic feature of NER (McCallum 2005), which needs to be taken into consideration during the stages of method selection and implementation – Second, the data is sequential • This is because language is delivered and interpreted in a set order, and the elements that constitute the sequence (pairs of words and class labels) are not drawn independently from a distribution, but exhibit significant sequential correlation • For example, the tokens World, Food, and Programme are not independent from each other given the meaning of the trigram • In order to not only adequately represent the sequential nature of the data, but to also exploit this characteristic, a sequential learning technique seems appropriate 35 4.1 Sequential learning for Entity Extraction • Sequential supervised machine learning techniques facilitate the modeling of relationships between nearby pairs of data points x and respective class labels y (Dietterich 2002) • In our case, the data points x are text terms, and the class labels y are the meta-matrix categories • Empiric work suggests that sequential, tokenbased models achieve higher accuracy rates for NER than more traditional models, such as Sliding Window techniques (Freitag 1997) 36 • Our goal with a sequential learning approach is to learn and construct a model h that for each sequence of (x, y) predicts an entity sequence y = h(x) that generalizes with high accuracy to new and unseen text data • To illustrate this concept, the desired entity sequence y for our previously introduced sample sentence would be: 37 • Original sentence for reference: 38 • Various models for working towards this goal exist • On a general level, these models can be divided into generative versus conditional (also known as discriminative) models • Figure 3 illustrates the models discussed for their applicability to Entity Extraction in the following 39 y x • In this figure, the x's represent the words in a text, and the y's represent the respective feature that one wants to decode—in our case, whether a word is an instance of a meta-matrix class or not, and if so, a class label for that word 40 • The directed graphs or models represent a distribution factored into a set of distributions where each node is conditioned on its parents • The undirected model represents a distribution factored into a set of "local likelihood" functions for each variable clique 41 • Generative Models estimate a joint distribution of the form P(x, y, . . .). Bikel et al. (1999) used a Hidden Markov Model (HMM), a special instance of generative models that has been successfully applied to Speech Recognition and other NLP tasks, for NER • Specifically, they deployed a HMM to decode the hidden sequence of NE that most probably has generated the observed sentences • Their implementation, named IdentiFinder, considers multiple words' features and achieves a NER accuracy of up to 94.9 percent 42 • While NER accuracy rates gained with HMM are competitive with those achieved by using conditional models as will be shown later in this section, HMM lack the capability of directly passing information between separated y values • This information, which can be particularly valuable in the face of sparse data, can only be communicated indirectly through the y's that are intervening a separated pair of y's (Dietterich 2002) 43 World Food Programme Label1 Label2 Label3 • In the trigram World Food Programme, for instance, information about the class labels for World and for Programme cannot be communicated directly, but need to be channeled through the class label for Food • Another drawback of the HMM approach is that each x is generated only from the corresponding y, while information about nearby class labels cannot be exploited • This is another disadvantage exacerbated when working with sparse data 44 • An alternative to generative models are conditional models, which directly estimate a conditional distribution of the form P(y|x) • In other words, conditional models aim to find the most likely sequence of class labels y given an observed sequence of x, such as a sentence, without bothering to explain how the observed sequence was probabilistically generated from the y values—which in fact is irrelevant for the task at hand anyway 45 World Label1 Food Label2 Programme Label3 HMM • The main advantage of conditional models over generative ones is that they facilitate the usage of arbitrary features of the x's, such as global and long-distance features (Dietterich 2002) • As a result, information about distant class labels can be communicated directly in the model MEMM CRF 46 • For NER, a specific discriminative model, namely Conditional Random Fields (CRF) (Lafferty et al. 2001; Sha and Pereira 2003) has been shown to outperform generative models (Lafferty et al. 2001) – For example, Lafferty et al. (2001) report an error rate of • 5.69% for HMM • 6.37% for Maximum Entropy Markov Models (MEMM, another discriminative model, Borthwick et al. 1998) • and 5.55% for CRF 47 • In comparative empiric studies on sequential learning models (such as the one cited in the previous paragraph),MEMM have led to higher error rate than generative models • Given that MEMM (as well as CRF) allow for using a bag of features f that depend on yi and any property of sequence x, this drop in accuracy seems counterintuitive 48 • It has been attributed to the label bias problem, which only MEMM exhibit. Why is that? MEMM is a log-linear model that learns the conditional probability P(yi |yi-1, xi ) • The learner uses maximum entropy to find the highest conditional likelihood of all x: ∏P(yi |xi ) 49 • Now label bias problems occur because all of the probability mass present in a class label yi-1 must be passed to the subsequent label yi , even if the observed token xi fits it only poorly or not at all (Lafferty et al. 2001) • In CRF, this decision can be further delayed, until a better fit is detected MEMM CRF 50 4.2 Conditional Random Fields for Entity Extraction • Based on the properties of the described learning models as well as on the empiric results cited in the previous section, we decided to use CRF for Entity Extraction • In contrast to HMM and MEMM, CRF allow for modeling the relationship among yi and yi-1 as a Markov Random Field (MRF) that is conditioned only on x 51 • MRF are a general framework for representing undirected, graphical models • In CRF, the conditional distribution of an entity sequence y given an observation sequence (string of text data) x is computed as the normalized product of potential functions Mi (Lafferty et al. 2001; Sha and Pereira 2003) 52 • In (1), the fα(yi-1, yi,, x) component represents the transition feature function of an entire (that is, arbitrarily long) observation sequence as well as the entities at the current and preceding positions • The gβ(yi, x) component represents the emission feature function of an entity sequence from a term sequence. 53 • The feature vectors fα and gβ are given, fixed, boolean feature vectors that depend on yi and any property sequence of x • Note that fα is an edge feature, while gβ is a vertex feature. Most of these features will be switched off or zero most of the time, and will be turned on only rarely • The word identity feature, which our implementation includes, for instance, is only positive when x contains that particular term 54 • In our case, for each feature, the edge weights λα and the node weights μβ are learned from the training data 55 • The potential functions are furthermore multiplied by 1/Z(x), where Z is a normalizing constant parameterized on data sequence x. As a result, the un-normalized scores of the potentials Mi are being normalized • Subsequently, the actual conditional probability of the label sequence P(y|x), where both x and y are both arbitrarily long vectors, is computed as 56 • For calculating the conditional probability, the length of the entire label sequence from its start at y0 to its end plus one at yn+1 is considered • Overall, CRF enable the consideration of arbitrarily large numbers of features as well as long-distance information on at least x • In our experiments, for example, between 61,000 and 64,000 binary features were detected and used—far more than the typical handful of predetermined features for e.g. HMM 57 • As a result, more information is exploited than with generative models • We argue that for sparse data, this exhaustive usage of available information is crucial 58 • As a starting point for implementing CRF we used a package provided by Sarawagi (n.d.). This framework provides a basic implementation of a CRF that can be adjusted and customized for specific types of CRF applications.2 – The specific network that we implemented in CRF is the naive model graph type, since this structure and characteristic correspond to the linear nature of text data 59 word appear or not • Features considered include word identity, transitions among class labels, starting features, ending features, word score features (the log of the ratio of current word with the label y to the total words with label y), and features for handling words that are new or have only been observed in other states so far • For training and testing, we included the other category (collection of all instances of those categories that are considered in BBN but not in the meta-matrix model) in order to have less sparse data 60 • Analogous to our definition of the Entity Extraction process, our CRF implementation consists of two steps: – First, the CRF identifies relevant terms • These terms are marked as being a part of a relevant entity • If consecutive words are identified as belonging to one entity (e.g. World Food Programme), they are deterministically designated one concept 61 – Second, the CRF is used to classify the identified relevant entities • In order to analyze and evaluate the accuracy achieved by both steps, we measured and report accuracy rates for each step separately 62 Outline 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Introduction Background Data Methods Results Summary and limitations 63 5. Results • The overall accuracy of Entity Extraction stems from two components: – the correct identification of entity boundaries (start to end) – and the correct assignment of class labels to relevant terms • For validating our Entity Extraction implementation, a term had to be completely correctly located as well as correctly classified in order to be counted as a correctly extracted entity 64 • In our case, classification is a nine-fold decision: – a relevant term can be an agent, event, knowledge, location, organization, resource, time, attribute, or other – Under the category other we collected those entity classes that considered in the BBN data, but irrelevant to the meta-matrix – Furthermore, we decided to treat the attribute time as a separate category, because users or analysts often need terms representing time to be clearly identified as a specific subset of information 65 • In order to assess the accuracy of our Entity Extraction system, we computed recall, precision, and the F-measure • These are standard measures for evaluating the performance of Natural Language Processing and Information Extraction techniques (Bikel et al. 1999) 66 • Supervised machine learning systems are typically validated by performing a k-fold cross-validation • We complied with this standard technique by running a ten-fold cross validation on the data: – This procedure randomly picks 90 percent of the data and uses them for constructing a model h – The resulting model is then applied to the remaining ten percent of the data in order to determine how correctly h predicts the label sequences for this data fold – This process is repeated nine more times, and the final results (see Table 2) are averaged over all ten runs 67 • Our results suggest that overall our Entity Extraction system correctly locates and classifies about at least eight out of ten entities (80%) • Precision exceeds recall by 0.9 percent, and this difference is statistically significant 68 • Figure 4 shows the ground truth and our results side by side: – the left bar represents all instances of meta-matrix categories and the other category as tagged in BBN – The right bar represents the ratios of our accurate results and the different types of errors: • overall, our system correctly identifies and classifies 82.7 percent (F-value, see also Table 2) of the instances of the categories contained in BBN 69 Found error Not found 70 • At the same time, our engine fails to correctly locate 6.4 percent of the entities contained in the data (false negatives with respect to identification), and misclassifies 12.1 percent of the correctly located entities (false negatives with respect to classification) 71 • As Fig. 4 illustrates, the number of correctly found and classified entities (black section of right bar) plus the number of false negatives with respect to identification and classification (dark gray and light gray section of right bar, respectively) equals the number of all entities in BBN (entire left bar) • On average, 5.4 percent of the entities suggested by our system are false positives (white section of right bar) 72 Identify Should not be identified Not identify should be identified 73 • False positives here are terms that our engine identifies and classifies as some meta-matrix category, although they are irrelevant terms according to the test data • A visual, qualitative inspection of the false positives that were returned by our system indicates that a fair amount of these entities could be considered as relevant hits with respect to the meta-matrix: – the terms king, specialist, and reader, for example, were assigned to the agent class, and Mississippi and Tokyo were suggested to be locations 74 • The distribution of accuracy rates and error types for each category considered by our engine is shown in Fig. 6 • In Fig. 6, 100 percent (y-axis) again represent accurate results plus false negatives, while false positives are placed above the 100 percent line 75 76 • Relating those percentages to the total frequency of terms per category in the test data (Fig. 5) suggests that only for categories with very few training instances (less than 1,500 for other, less than 1,000 for event and knowledge), unacceptably low accuracy rates are generated 77 78 • Across the remaining categories (ranging from approximately 49,000 instances for organization to 16,000 for resource), we did not observe any relationship between larger amounts of training instances and higher accuracy rates per category, but fairly similar error rates 79 80 • The agent class, for instance, is the second most frequent one in BBN, but shows the highest error rates among the classes with 16,000 and more instances • Our engine performed worst by far on the other class—the only category that we do not consider in the meta-matrix or for further use 81 82 • Overall and to the best of our knowledge, no empiric point of comparison exists for our results • In comparison to classical NER (such as the studies cited in Sect. 4.1), our accuracy rates are considerably lower, which we partially attribute to three possible reasons: – First, we consider more categories (nine) than typical NER systems do (often four: people, places, organizations, other). Because of that, our classifier needs to pick one best category out of a larger pool of choices 83 – Second, we attempt to learn highly fuzzy categories such as knowledge, resource, and event • This might make term location and classification more difficult than in the case of classical NER • Why is that? The classical NE often exhibit certain properties or patterns (e.g. most names of people, places, and organizations are capitalized proper nouns in singular or plural), which the entities of our interest often do not show, and which probably are not compensated for by other properties • Furthermore, the entities considered in our study cover a much broader range of word identities— one of the features used by the learner—than classical NE 84 – Third, in Entity Extraction, it is even more likely than in NER that the same terms may be relevant in some sentences and irrelevant in others, depending on the context, domain, and rules for labeling the training data – For the learner, such terms are hard to distinguish from consistently relevant or irrelevant ones 85 Outline 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Introduction Background Data Methods Results Summary and limitations 86 • Several limitations apply: – First, CRFs enable us to detect relevant features along with their corresponding weights without having to have any preliminary or initial guess about what some of those features might be for a particular data set or domain – This means we can let the computer do all the work as long as we provide it with some labeled training data 87 – However, such an uninformed global learning approach comes at a price: • Training the identifier and classifier on a reasonably sized data set and using a reasonable high iteration rate for the gradient can take a very long time • In our case, each of the ten runs that we performed for the ten-fold cross validation took about 20 hours to complete • This constraint can be alleviated to some degree by using more powerful hardware, especially such with more memory 88 • However, this limitation made experimentation highly difficult and time consuming, which limited the practicality of exploring the parameter space and configuration, and tinkering with a variety of sample data types, sizes, and origins • Despite this constraint, we plan to perform further experiments with different parameter configurations of the CRF and other data sets 89 – Second, in our current implementation and data set, relevant terms were associated with exactly one class label – The underlying ontology, however, allows for more flexible, non-exclusive label assignment – In the future we plan on modifying our system such that single terms can be mapped to multiple categories if applicable, and testing the resulting machinery with appropriate data – We understand that network models might need to be adjusted in order to represent this kind of ambiguity 90 – Third, we argue that an ability to add, change, or remove labels from the used ontology is essential to having a flexible yet robust and sustainable learning and research process – While the meta-matrix currently has eight specific labels of interest, it is likely that the model may be altered as it evolves in the future 91 • Finally, the limitations include a strong reliance on the training data for learning, which may or may not generalize well when this Entity Extraction program is run on different data sets • In the future, we will try to test and update our system based on alternative appropriately annotated test beds 92

Size information is normally broken down in to arm / temple length (ranges between 120 - 150mm), bridge width (ranges between 14 - 24mm, and lens width (ranges between 40 - 62mm). We also include a frame height measurement where possible, this can vary depending on frame style.

I already have glasses, how do I find out their size?
If you have a pair of glasses that are a perfect fit, you can usually find the frame size information on the frame - usually on the arm or the bridge.
What to look for?
You will often find a variety of information on the frame, including model number, branding and frame sizing. The numbers you are looking for will be similar to this format 150 - 22 - 50 although this can vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. These numbers provide the following information:-
150 - Arm / temple size (in mm), a 3 digit value normally ranging from 120 - 150.
22 - Bridge size (in mm), a 2 digit value normally ranging from 14 - 24.

Aradessa: let the party beginMature
As I walked in I noticed Shane dancing with a boy about her age "How sweet" I smile in their direction and look away. Louis was quiet all the way here but he looks like a proper porcupine now. "Louis why dont you go ask someone to dance? I'm going to look around"
I ended up hanging by the wall. The dancers were all so...graceful, it was amazing.
"Would you like to dance?" I turned my head to see a boy a little older than I was half bowing with his hand extended. He had jet black hair that was combed back and he was wearing something old fasioned....an amazing suit of black armour. It almost looked real.
"Um...sure" I smiled and took his hand. He lead the way into a waltz, spinning and twirling in time with the music.
"My names Aarron by the way" he whispered mid-spin
"Aradessa" Wow, dizzyness.
The dancing continued like that for a while and then the waltz ended. My eyes scanned the room for my friends, I picked out each one, all enjoying the party.
The music started again...a tango. I cringed. Aarron extended his hand and pulled me onto thedance floor once again. How could this guy tango so well? Isaw Shane dancing on the other side of the room, I have to say she looks amazing.

text: In audio acoustics a port refers to an opening in a bass reflex-type loudspeaker enclosure. Ports are usually tuned very carefully to create certain kinds of resonances and coupling with the air outside the cabinet. They come in many shapes, sizes, and are even found in different locations on speaker cabinets. The purpose is to improve the bass response characteristics of the enclosure, which is often accomplished specifically by creating a controlled resonance of the air at a frequency just below the normal cutoff frequency of the speaker in the given enclosure. Port design principles and how they integrate with overall cabinet (and speaker) designs are a very rigorous science where refinements are still being made.Port also refers to an input or output of some device, usually an electronic device. A SCSI connection is considered a port (often called a SCSI port), serial connections are ports, and so on.Finally port also refers to the concept of taking software written for one type of platform and converting to work with another platform. This is known as 'porting.' For example, when a software company decides they want their Mac based program to also be available for Windows users they can 'port' it over, which is usually much easier than writing entirely new code from the ground up, though there are also advantages to all new code.

Capacitive Stylus Review: Three Way Shootout!
As tablets become more and more powerful, people are looking to them to do more than just be a casual browser or ereader whilst they sit in front of the TV on an evening. Tablets are becoming more popular in general, and we as consumers are beginning to use these light and portable devices in more productive ways than we have historically.
We also look to things like stylus to enable us to be more creative on our tablets. Capacitive stylus are much more effective than the old style resistive stylus of yesteryear, especially when used in conjunction with the latest apps running on our dual and quad core tablets!
1. Ten1 Pogo Sketch Pro Stylus
The Ten1 Pogo Sketch Pro mobile phone stylus both looks and feels expensive. The classy design reminds you more of a paintbrush than anything else. Ten1 were obviously going for the artistic demographic, the name, the style, even the message on the back of the case proclaiming that "Artists love the Pogo Sketch Pro" are all directed to the type of person who would likely use this to draw, rather than write on their device.
The stylus itself is thickest towards the bottom, and thins out towards the end. It feels really natural in the hand and is perfectly balanced as well. Silver aluminium is the material of choice for this stylus, however the bottom half is completely covered with rubber. This is an interesting design choice which some may or may not like, there's no doubt it adds to the great ergonomic feel though.
The pen comes together with an additional rough tip which Ten1 call their "standard" tip, the device comes with the "pro" tip already attached. You also get a handy soft carry case too. The pro tip is excellent, the only reason you'd go for the standard tip is if you happened to lose the pro one. The tips can be swapped by unscrewing, ensuring that there is no chance whatsoever of them falling off themselves.
The pro tip is the smallest out of all three on test. It is also made of a lighter material than the others as well. Both of these factors helped make a really enjoyable experience when using the stylus. It really does feel as premium as it looks. The tracking is superb, very accurate and smooth, overall a real joy to use.
You can purchase the Ten1 Pogo Sketch Pro stylus from Amazon for £19.99 or MobileFun for £23.95.
2. Hard Candy Stylus
The Hard Candy stylus is the polar opposite of the Pogo Sketch Pro. Where the Pogo stylus was aimed at artists. the Hard Candy stylus is most definitely aimed at writers. The stylus is large, heavy and kind of bulky, but this design was a choice, not an accident. This will definitely appeal to those of you who like to know you've got something in your hand.
As mentioned, the stylus is aimed at those who want to write, and Hard Candy clarified this even more by including a ballpoint pen in this stylus too. The middle of the stylus holds the Hard Candy branding, and is also the place where both lids are connected. One reveals the stylus, one the pen. I found it quite troublesome actually removing the lid I wanted. They are attached quite tightly and you may find yourself pulling off the lid you didn't want. There also isn't any indication which end is which, you just have to try your luck! Another slight issue I had is the casing is rather harsh. The metal edges, especially around the lids and where you hold the pen naturally are quite sharp. Not sharp as in you'll get cut, but just enough to make finding a comfortable holding position hard. Replacing the pen ink cartridge is as easy as with any other standard pen.
The tip on the Hard Candy stylus is... well hard. Its made of a thicker and less durable material than the Samsung and Pogo stylus leading to less accurate tracking when used on the tablet.
You can purchase the Hard Candy stylus from Amazon for £29.95 or MobileFun for £29.95.
3. Official Samsung Galaxy Tab Stylus
This official stylus from Samsung doesn't really jump out as you as anything special. It looks like you'd expect a stylus to look, sort of like a pen. It's the only one of the three stylus on test that has a pocket clip, something I was happy to see as it gives you somewhere to hold the stylus whilst not in use. The stylus is black and silver with the Samsung name on the side. AS mentioned, nothing about the design jumps out at you, unlike the Pogo stylus for example, however that's not necessarily a bad thing. It's functional design and build will be looked at as a positive for some people, especially those who may use this in the workplace.
The stylus is a bit on the small side, the smallest of all on test at least. This shouldn't pose too much of a problem to people as I have fairly large hands and found the stylus comfortable in use. The weighting of the device is slightly top-heavy (may be down to the pocket clip), you don't notice this much, however as I was switching between this and the Pogo stylus during the test the difference was noticeable.
The tip on the official Samsung product is somewhere in between the Pogo and Hard Stylus. It's of a medium density and is more flexible than the Hard Candy stylus. The tracking is quite accurate, however the top-heavy weighting does make it slightly less comfortable than it could be.
You can purchase the Official Samsung Galaxy Tab stylus from Amazon for £10.24 or MobileFun for £14.99.

Ten1 Pogo Sketch Pro Stylus
My favourite of all three stylus on test. The premium feel and excellent performance won me over. It's not the toughest build out there so if you're heavy handed this is something to take note of. A winner in my books!
Hard Candy Stylus
I didn't really enjoy using this stylus, its thick and heavy, and the performance leaves something to be desired... However, the strong build and unique design, along with the additional pen included may tempt some of you out there, but not me.
Official Samsung Galaxy Tab Stylus
I didn't mind using the Samsung stylus, the pocket clip is also a very welcome addition. It didn't quite meet the performance of the Pogo stylus, but the design is very suited to office use. In fact, I'd almost (but not quite!) give up the slight performance benefit of the Pogo to use the Samsung one in meetings at work.
Big thanks to the guys over at MobileFun (they sell lots of cool phone accessories) who kindly provided the three stylus on test today.

5Th Annual Clitoral Mass: August 6th
for Los Angeles' 5th Annual
– – – – – – – – – – – –
Clitoral Mass is the largest bike ride in Los Angeles to date organized by and for womxn of color, trans, queer, two-spirited and gender nonconforming folx. With our arsenal of "indigena understanding and urban hood mentality," we are building movement in the spirit of rebellion passed down by our great grandmothers, reclaiming the autonomy of our spaces and bodies as we continue to resist the settler occupation of both.
The riders will meet up Lou Costello Park at 9AM Saturday, August 6, 2016 with a bike repair station, photo booth and resources to greet participants. Festivities will start with an opening ceremony with blessing of the bikes, and bike safety skits. We will then ride out at 11AM. Riders can expect multiple pit stops with live music, freebies, and the unique experience of riding with hundreds of other womxn identified, nonconforming riders through the urban and natural terrains of the city's streets.
We are taking up space in the street and owning our bodies.
We Want You at Clitoral Mass 2016!
– – – – – – – – – – – –
Clitoral Mass L.A. is organized by Ovarian Psycos Cycles and volunteers in the Clitoral Mass Committee.
Clitoral Mass represents solidarity between womxn, queer, femme, trans, gender non-conforming and two-spirited individuals from different walks of life to promote solidarity in bicycling, encourage safety, health in our communities and taking back the night.
We envision a movement in which womxn from all over the world organize their own Clitoral Mass in their respective communities in order to shift consciousness about social justice through bicycling for everyone.
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – –
This ride is open to all WOC & POC womxn, gender-non-conforming, queer, trans, two-spirited folx only!
> > We do recognize that the name Clitoral Mass does refer to cis-womxn's reproductive system. However, it is not meant to exclude anyone. The name is a play on words intended to be playful and simultaneously create some sort of acknowledgement/acceptance/pride in one's historically oppressed body. While this is a frequent motif of ours, we do not make apologies for using fem-posi symbolism and do so to reaffirm and reclaim our bodies and do not in any way do it with the intention to marginalize the many forms and genders that constitute "woman." We prescribe to a decolonized/WOC feminist interpretation of womxnhood, which includes womxn and womxn-identified folks, or two-spirited/queer/trans folks. Long story short, ALL WOMXN-IDENTIFIED FOLX no matter what reproductive organs you have or do not have are welcome on this ride!< <

Clitoral Mass 2015 Mobility and Immobility: Base Building & Reclaiming Spaces Beyond Our Streets
For Immediate Release 6/26/2015
Contact: email@example.com
Adrianna (323) 252-9096 or Xela (323) 336-7169
Clitoral Mass is the largest bike ride in Los Angeles to date organized by and for womxn of color, trans-womxn; womxn identified, two-spirited and gender nonconforming folx. With our arsenal of "indigena understanding and urban hood mentality," we are building movement in the spirit of rebellion passed down by our great grandmothers, reclaiming the autonomy of our spaces and bodies as we continue to resist the settler occupation of both. The theme for the 4th Annual Clitoral Mass ride is "Mobility and Immobility: Base Building & Reclaiming Spaces Beyond Our Streets" to continue much-needed dialogue and analysis around issues of mass incarceration, mass deportation, gentrification and state-sponsored genocide.
Meet up for the ride will begin at 11AM Saturday, August 1, 2015 by the Olvera Street Gazebo with a bike repair station, photo booth and resources to greet riders. Festivities will begin with an opening ceremony featuring a blessing of the bikes, bike safety skits and yoga stretches lead by The People's Yoga. We are excited to be collaborating with Chant Down the Walls and Incarceration Liberation Summer Theater Project to highlight the injustices of detention and deportation of immigrant communities. Along the route, community organizations such as North East LA Alliance, Youth Justice Coalition, Comida No Bombas LA, and others will engage riders in fun, informative sessions. Riders can expect multiple pit stops with live music, freebies, and the unique experience of riding with hundreds of other womxn identified, nonconforming riders through the urban and natural terrains of the city.
Maryann "Sunhands" Urdiales, member of the Clitoral Mass Committee, says "riding Clitoral Mass gives me a sense that we're not invisible. We are being seen. We are taking up space in the street and owning our bodies. And the fact that there are so many women of color especially represents the smashing of roles and scripts we're just expected to accept."

Few km to 70 km thick
Thinnest layer
Lighter Rocks
Consists of continental & oceanic plates
Crust + Upper Mantle = Lithosphere
1) Hot substances rises and cool substances sinks
2) The material in the mantle is heated up by the core, thus expanding and rising , spreading out along the plates.
3) The plates is then pulled away from each other
4) The hot mantle slowly cools down and sinks, dragging the plates along as well.

|Re: problem with getcontext and context.xml
|Sun, 29 Oct 2006 17:09:43 GMT
Well i am not sure to understand actually with the context in the server.xml file if i want multiple vhost i only need to do somethink like this : <Host name="vhost1.mydomain.com" debug="0" appBase="/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/myaccount1" unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true"> <Context path="" docBase="" debug="1" reloadable="true" /> </Host> <Host name="vhost2.mydomain.com" debug="0" appBase="/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/myaccount2" unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true"> <Context path="" docBase="" debug="1" reloadable="true" /> </Host> But with the new tomcat server setting you told me i don t need to have appBase="/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/myaccount2" to a specificated appbase but more appBase="/usr/local/tomcat/webapps and now you told me to have multiple appbase ? so it s not the same things as : appBase="/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/myaccount1" ? and appbase appBase="/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/myaccount2" for the two context ? and to have a hierarchy like this : /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/myaccount1/ROOT/ (where to put my website?) /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/myaccount2/ROOT/ ? it seem much more complicated than to have the context in the server.xml file no ? (and i am not sure to fully understand because i still don't manage to have a single website work :) ) <Alternatively, you could put separate ROOT.xml files in conf/[engine]/[host] i would prefer in the META-INF for each user to manage it s own context.xml (for the realm and stuff like that) >Then where is the <Host> entry for default.mydomain.com? If it's >missing, it's surprising Tomcat does anything. it s there : <Engine name="Catalina" defaultHost="default.mydomain.com"> no ? if someone has a example of two websites with two vhosts working it would surely help ) Right now my hierarchy is like this : /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/myaccount1/META-INF/context.xml usr/local/tomcat/webapps/myaccount1/WEB-INF/web.xml /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/myaccount2/META-INF/context.xml usr/local/tomcat/webapps/myaccount2/WEB-INF/web.xml thx --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com To unsubscribe, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com For additional commands, e-mail: email@example.com
