For example, I might ask them, now in your wallet that was American Express, correct? And now, as they think, did he have access to my wallet, and their mind starts thinking about that, I might take their glasses. ROBBINS: One way of doing that is simply asking them a question that's more important than that. ROBBINS: For me that's kind of Holy Grail and it's very difficult for me to do. How do you steal someone's eyeglasses from their face without them knowing? SAGAL: How do you steal someone - I was going to ask you about the belt but the eyeglasses are better. They think that it's just about the watch, but very quickly, they learn that I might steal their wallets, their belts, their cell phones, their tie, or the hardest thing for me is their eyeglasses. Do I have your permission? Once they say yes, I play a little game with them as I'm interacting with them and I steal their watch. If they have a watch on, I might say in three minutes, I'd like to be wearing your watch. ROBBINS: Usually I'll tell someone, for example, like their watch. So you invite someone on stage, I assume, or you'll walk up to somebody if you're working a room. And a lot of people think that that makes them safe, and hopefully I wake them up a little bit. ROBBINS: I think that's kind of my forte is that I tell people beforehand that I'm going to steal from them. The amazing thing is they know that's what you're going to do. ROBBINS: It's part of my community service I guess you'd say. Basically, you invite people onstage and you rob them blind while they're standing there. You do a show, and basically, we've seen you on video and we've read about it. But I had been exposed as a kid to my half brothers had been involved with some illegal activity and it kind of rubbed off. And I got invited to work in a show out in Las Vegas when I was 21. ROBBINS: But the long form, I started as a sleight of hand artist when I was an early teen, and I found that picking pockets was a little bit more lucrative. ROBBINS: The short answer is it's a family business I guess. How did you get your start as, well, a pickpocket? SAGAL: So we read about you in the New Yorker a while ago. Apollo Robbins, welcome to WAIT WAIT.DON'T TELL ME! He shows off his skills in Vegas and elsewhere, and as a consultant helps all kinds of organizations protect themselves from people like him. ![]() Speaking of extraordinary skills, Apollo Robbins may be the world's only professional pickpocket, or at least the only one who admits it. And now, the game where we look for people with extraordinary skills and refuse to let them use them.

It's shaped well enough that i can shove it into place, and it will stay attached to the car while I move my jack into place. ![]() I then cut and shaped it a bit to make it fit between the battery rail and the bolt head in the jacking area to help keep it from moving while lifting. I went on eBay and ordered a 3" diameter jack pad (fits perfectly in the cradle of my small racing-style floor jack) that is 2" tall. The blocks would probably be over-priced even if they were available separately. The only problem is that these blocks are only (at least at this point) sold as part of a service kit that includes all necessary specialty tools for lifting the car and removing the HV Battery, and the kit is quite expensive. It turns out that Ford's specialty service tools company, ROTUNDA, does make some nifty jacking blocks for the Mach-E, that actually have "posts" that fit into the holes in the correct jacking areas. I contacted Ford Parts to inquire whether Ford makes a jacking block(s) for lifting the Mach-E. I guess (?) to lift at least technically correctly, it takes something like a rubber jack pad / block that can be between the typically wider jack head surface and the relatively thin (2 1/2" to 3") metal rail which is inside of the rectangular aluminum battery member. In the lift examples, it would seem that many reviewers are technically lifting incorrectly using the rectangular aluminum channel, instead of outer metal (steel?) strip. The approved lift or jack area is the thin strip between /the outside plastic strip (with the triangles) and /the inside aluminum rectangular battery rail. ![]() It is the just under 3" strip inside of the aluminum rails with holes which are actually part of the battery pack and which aluminum battery rails are not to be used for jacking lifting (?), and which can be ripped (shipping example), or crushed. Maybe some variations are okay, particularly if the load is spread.įrom the pdf, there is a very specific area between the triangle marks on the plastic strips which is suggested. There a lot of questions through threads on how to jack / lift Mach-E. ![]() ^ a b c d e f g h 'Review: Yoshi's Island DS'. ![]()

![]() (1 of 3) Basic: outputting the raw text line-by-line I’ve found that even for PDFs that turn off the ability to copy text from the document, PDFBox can still extract the content. It allows the “creation of new PDF documents, manipulation of existing documents and the ability to extract content from documents”. The Apache PDFBox library is an open-source Java tool for interacting with PDF documents. Intrigued by this rare example of transparency into how professional and advanced horse racing tournament players approached this format, I decided to see if I could extricate the data within to conduct some analysis for educational and entertainment purposes. It would also be the first time that the Breeders’ Cup had taken the decision to publish all the players’ tournament wagers placed at the conclusion of the event.Ī few days after the competition ended, a 900+ page PDF file was posted to the Breeders’ Cup website containing a breakdown of all of the wagers placed by each player. In 2018, 391 entries competed for the $1 million prize pool. The Breeders’ Cup Betting Challenge (BCBC) is an annual $10,000 buy-in, live-money horse racing handicapping tournament tied to the two-day, 14-race $30 million Breeders’ Cup World Championships event. I also touch on the actual mechanics of working through a problem like this - using tools like Excel to explore and analyze both the nature of the PDF, as well as the vagaries of the data itself. ![]() I show how the raw text can be extracted and then detail much more low-level control over the text characters positioned within the pages. ![]() In this post, I outline a real-world example of parsing a large PDF file that contains repeated tables of data. However, when information, especially structured data, is contained within a PDF document and one wishes to extract that content, the format becomes quite difficult for developers to interact with. Unlike websites, often what you see on the PDF will be exactly how it will be printed on a physical page, with the added benefits of easily distributable files and near-ubiquitous support of software able to read this format on almost any standard digital device. PDF continues to be a popular document publishing format because users see them as the digital equivalent of paper documents. ![]() Soon, that world is upended: The Germans march into Paris and refugees flee south, overrunning Viann’s land. She returns to tending her small farm, Le Jardin, in the Loire Valley, teaching at the local school and coping with daughter Sophie’s adolescent rebellion. Cut to spring, 1940: Viann has said goodbye to husband Antoine, who's off to hold the Maginot line against invading Germans. This trajectory is interrupted when she receives an invitation to return to France to attend a ceremony honoring passeurs: people who aided the escape of others during the war. In 1995, an elderly unnamed widow is moving into an Oregon nursing home on the urging of her controlling son, Julien, a surgeon. Hannah’s new novel is an homage to the extraordinary courage and endurance of Frenchwomen during World War II. Miller makes Homer pertinent to women facing 21st-century monsters. Expect Miller’s readership to mushroom like one of Circe’s spells. All the while, the supernatural sits intriguingly alongside “the tonic of ordinary things.” A few passages coil toward melodrama, and one inelegant line after a rape seems jarringly modern, but the spell holds fast. He had talked his way past the witch instead.” Circe’s fascination with mortals becomes the book’s marrow and delivers its thrilling ending. And as she grows in power, she muses that “not even Odysseus could talk his way past witchcraft. She midwifes the birth of the Minotaur on Crete and performs her own C-section. She makes lovers of Hermes and then two mortal men. I stepped into those woods and my life began.” This lonely, scorned figure learns herbs and potions, surrounds herself with lions, and, in a heart-stopping chapter, outwits the monster Scylla to propel Daedalus and his boat to safety. It takes banishment to the island Aeaea for Circe to sense her calling as a sorceress: “I will not be like a bird bred in a cage, I thought, too dull to fly even when the door stands open. The novel, with its distinctive feminist tang, starts with the sentence: “When I was born, the name for what I was did not exist.” Readers will relish following the puzzle of this unpromising daughter of the sun god Helios and his wife, Perse, who had negligible use for their child. This time, she dips into The Odyssey for the legend of Circe, a nymph who turns Odysseus’ crew of men into pigs. The writer returns to Homer, the wellspring that led her to an Orange Prize for The Song of Achilles (2012). Imagine all the prayers.” So says Circe, a sly, petulant, and finally commanding voice that narrates the entirety of Miller’s dazzling second novel. Life in the immediate aftermath of slavery is powerfully rendered in this impressive first novel.Ī retelling of ancient Greek lore gives exhilarating voice to a witch. Using frequent flashbacks to “slaverytime” and “wartime” and occasional jumps to the future, Atakora structures a plot with plenty of satisfying twists. ![]() Mother-child relationships, especially, are at the center of the book. Although Atakora writes of such horrors as lynchings, beatings, and rapes, most of her story focuses on the intense relationships among people trying to make sense of a world turned upside down. Based in part on narratives of formerly enslaved people gathered by the Works Progress Administration in the 1930s, the novel gives its characters complex lives, rendered in well-crafted prose. Then other children fall ill despite Rue’s herbs and tinctures, some die, and whispers spread-is she a healer or a witch? The townspeople turn for comfort to a charismatic itinerant preacher called Bruh Abel, and Rue must decide whether he’s an adversary or an ally, all while keeping a dangerous secret. Born with a caul, pale skin, and strange black eyes, the boy, called Bean, unnerves them. Although Rue has lived among them all her life, the townspeople begin to turn against her after she delivers a baby for a woman named Sarah. After her mother’s death and amid the chaos that follows the war, Rue reluctantly takes May Belle’s place. She is the town’s midwife and healer, having learned her skills from her mother, Miss May Belle, who was beloved and trusted by her neighbors (and occasionally called upon to cast curses). The book’s protagonist is a young woman named Rue. In some ways, freedom hasn’t yet changed their lives with few resources and little knowledge of the outside world, most of them have remained on the land they used to work for the late Marse Charles. An engrossing debut novel explores the lives of emancipated slaves struggling to survive in the years just after the Civil War.Ītakora’s historical novel is set on a ruined plantation in the rural South so remote that its black inhabitants have rarely seen white people in the years since the war ended. |
