each year the members of the colborne art gallery host a very special show called all things bright and beautiful , an exhibit and sale of unique art works in a variety of mediums , sizes and price ranges suitable for gift - giving .
with all things strange and beautiful we are presenting original objects from both the museum wormianum and the royal cabinet of curiosities , but also lots of wonderful contemporary stories , theories and interpretations linked to the objects . for example , that lemmings are born in the clouds and fall down from the sky , that birds of paradise have no feet and spend their whole lives in the air , or that what we now know as narwhal tusks actually come from unicorns . ' all things strange and beautiful ' is thus an exhibition which is not just about things but about people ' s fascination with and relationship to those things

i have read a lot of good books lately , but this one i just loved ! ! i keep reading the things that some people mention about feeling uncomfortable at certain things in the book , i never did , i truly just saw the love and compassion right away . some people go through so much in their lives from early on that they become wise and more mature very early and that ' s what happened to wavy . . that ' s my opinion . . i loved the short chapters with the voices of all the different cast of characters i was very invested in this book , it was raw , it was beautiful . .

the stirring bryn greenwood’s all the ugly and wonderful things , so freakishly good and dangerous that it should come with a warning label . . . the writing is direct and muscular , a snake with all the slithery danger of a coiled rattler on a hot rock . verdict greenwood ( from kansas , daughter of a “mostly reformed drug dealer” ) astounds in creating a world where assorted murderers , felons , and thieves are sympathetic . alternating narrators à la the sound and the fury create a dynamic where lolita meets a dissonance of values / taboo romance like east of eden , damage , or the little mermaid .

nicki salcedo is an author that is new to me , but the plot synopsis of all beautiful things intrigues me enough to pick this up . i ' m in the mood for some romantic suspense that does not involve cops , secret agents , or navy seals , and this one looks like what i ' m looking for . some seven years ago , ava camden almost died when she was brutally assaulted after hanging out with some friends in an atlanta restaurant . she survives , but her face is badly scarred . joel sapphire - seriously , that ' s his nam

“achingly raw and beautifully written , all the ugly and wonderful things is both a hypnotic coming - of - age story and a heartbreaking tragedy . greenwood’s emotional prose and her well - drawn characters immediately drew me in and kept me captivated . i’m still thinking about wavy , and her ugly and wonderful world , long after i’ve turned the last page . ” ― jillian cantor , author of margot and the hours count
a beautifully written novel that had me on the edge of my seat throughout the book . the author has told an awesome story with great character building . i felt all the emotions the main characters experienced and couldn ' t wait to find out what happened next . a very good read .

we cannot let another moment pass without offering you all our warmest thanks for your fabulous role in ensuring the smooth running and utter brilliance of our wedding day at ufton court .
i have a feeling this is gonna be one of those books . holy crap on a saltine cracker ! i was right , it was one of those books . it had me in sad tears , in anger , in omg moments and in happy tears . where do i even start people ? i am so in love with wavy , donal and kellen . yeah , there were some things that made me cringe with kellen but it wasn ' t the way that it seemed . living the kind of life wavy and her brother donal had to live , there is not anything normal and they only had one savior , kellen . in the beginning we read about wavy staying with her aunt and her cousins . she does strange things , she doesn ' t talk , but she ' s fun to one of her cousins . then she goes home with her mother val . and her mother is pregnant . donal comes a little later and wavy takes care of him . wavy ' s parents are crazy . her father liam doesn ' t even live with them , he lives down the road with his drug stuff and women . their mom is crazy train and you can ' t talk to her at all . i can ' t even begin to tell you how wavy lives . how she eats . these are things you need to read for yourself . the only person that cared for wavy was kellen . he ' s older , he ' s a biker that has done some bad things . but in this world that wavy lives in , he ' s an angel . he takes her to school , he buys things she needs for school and just everything . when donal gets a little older he tags around a little bit too . but he doesn ' t get treated as bad as wavy . the kids go back and forth from their normal aunt ' s house . i really didn ' t like her at all . i can understand where she ' s coming from with things but she lives in a perfect world and things aren ' t always perfect . wavy forms an unnatural crush on kellen . i mean that is bound to happen right ? things just take all kinds of twists and turns from there and i am so glad , so so glad , that after so many years things turn out right . but it was a hard road to get there for many people and some , just didn ' t make it at all . i ' m so glad i finally read this book ! i couldn ' t even put it down ! my blog : melissa martin ' s reading list
we wanted to have the day by the sea and we transferred our guests to the reception by boat . we had a marquee in a beautiful field overlooking our favourite sailing spot . we used numerous flowers and plants that grow wild locally , such as ferns , hydrangeas , succulents , montbretia and sea holly .
we had a lovely local lady , georgina acland , do our catering . she was outstanding ! ! and will do whatever inventive things you ask for . would highly recommend . she goes under the name of compentent cooks .
joff and i don’t eat much cake but love cheese so instead we went for a huge cheese stack decorated in figs . all our cheese was from the cheese shop in truro .
no matter what your dream wedding looks like - be it trendy , industrial , organic , vintage , timeless with a classic elegance - we love it all .
perhaps the most touching part of the book is the ending when herriot is preparing to leave his pregnant wife because he has been called for duty with the royal air force . things have not turned out exactly the way he hoped they would . his practice is still young and he has little money to provide the necessities for his family . while he is away on duty , helen will be going back to live with her parents because helen and herriot have been living in some empty rooms above the veterinary clinic at which herriot worked . in these distressing circumstances herriot remembers thinking that something pleasant was ending . he closes with the comment that with the perspective of age , he realizes that things then were just beginning .
captivated the trials of pamela smart / u . s . a . , united kingdom ( director : jeremiah zagar ) — in an extraordinary and tragic american story , a small town murder becomes one of the highest profile cases of all time . from its historic role as the first televised trial to the many books and movies made about it , the film looks at the media’s enduring impact on the case .
we loved the flexibility of the venue to be able to choose the caterers we liked from their recommended suppliers , and to be able to bring our own drinks during the day . lewis’ dad brews his own beer and brew us special beers for our wedding ( all named after lewis’ favourite songs ) . it was a really personal touch to the day .
what a phenomenal debut . i loved this one . just loved it . salcedo hears a rhythm in words that no one else gets . it ' s beautiful and heartbreaking and poetic . welcome to your new auto - buy author . amazing debut .
4 stars this is my first read by this author and i thought it was an extremely well written story . the author gives the feelings of the characters , the facts and situations , masterfully . all the while never manipulating the story or over romanticizing it . for this mother of two daughters the relationship passed lines that should never be crossed and left me outside of my comfort zone . however , i think the author would be just fine hearing that sort of feedback from a reader when releasing this t
nicky , a designer maker and joff , a gp , tied the knot on 14 september last year with a church ceremony at king charles the martyr in their home town of falmouth , followed by a reception at lady’s close field in restronguet . the guests travelled by boat to the reception which overlooks a beautiful river estuary , and is a place the couple have spent much time together with the people they love . i just adore this wedding , it is full of celebration and smiles – i get the impression every single person present on the day had an absolute riot of a time .
seven years ago , a brutal crime was committed . a crime that left haunting consequences for all involved in its aftermath . for ava camden , she has lived with three life - altering scars on her face . for joel sapphire , his conviction for the crime ended his dreams of playing in the nfl following his selection as a first round draft pick . for his brother graham , his brother ' s conviction led to threats while he spends his time trying to prove his brother ' s innocence . ms . salcedo did a beautiful job in

around . she finds peace in the starry midwestern night sky above the fields behind her house . one night everything changes when she witnesses one of her father ' s thugs , kellen , a tattooed ex - con with a heart of gold , wreck his motorcycle . what follows is a powerful and shocking love story between two unlikely people that asks tough questions , reminding us of all the ugly and wonderful things that life has to offer .
the story was breathtakingly beautiful ! i can not even begin to tell you how i was moved while reading this book and i was enthralled from beginning to end . i don ' t want to give away the story in the review because this is just a book you have to read . it is about accepting the beauty beneath ones scars both physical and emotional . nicki salcedo has an amazing voice and i am looking forward to reading her in the future . definitely read this book !

we had a civil ceremony in the barn . the music we chose for me to walk down the aisle to was angel by jack johnson . the lyrics mean a lot to us so it was lovely being able to walk down the aisle to it . we didn’t have any readings but lewis is a big music fan and adapted some johnny cash lyrics ( rose of my heart ) for us to read as personal vows . it was lovely to be able to add things to our ceremony that were special to us .

the museum wormianum was created by the physician ole worm in the early years of the 17th century and consisted mainly of a wide - ranging collection of natural specimens : stuffed animals , dried plants and rocks and minerals from all over the world . it wasn ' t just denmark ' s first museum , but one of the first museums anywhere in the world . after ole worm ' s death , his collection passed to the king , frederik iii . he was also a keen collector and was the first danish king to create a ' kunstkammer ' , which was a related phenomenon of the times , but focusing rather more on artistic and ethnographic treasures . so worm ' s natural history collection became part of the royal ' kunstkammer ' or cabinet of curiosities .
shot on 35mm , the picture is good - looking in a commercial way : colored lights illuminate rain - slicked streets as steam billows up from the - - you know the drill . but all the atmosphere and buildup can ' t gloss over the fact that nearly nothing has been communicated here that is important to anyone other than these two men . ( and to claiborne ' s accuser , who vanishes from the discussion as if she only existed to test their bond . ) even on that front , a line we remember from the prologue admits a good deal of relevant material has been left out of the conversation .
our flowers were by ashley bloom in caversham . we asked for a mix of flowers to fit in with our rustic theme – so nothing looked too ‘arranged’ or symmetrical – all in coral pink and white . i asked them to include hydrangea , roses and peonies because they are my favourites . the roses they used for the guys button holes were stunning – they were called miss piggy roses and were a perfect mix of coral and pink ! my bouquet was coral and pink to contrast with my dress , and the bridesmaids were pure white ( as their dresses were coral and pink floral print ) . all the flowers tied our colour theme in really well .
looking in from the outside the subject matter is ugly , but ms . greenwood ' s exquisite writing and characterizations allow you to see it from the inside , where the perspective is . . .
nicki salcedo ' s story can be counted as a beautiful thing . the writing was lovely , pulling you into ava ' s world of limited living since she was attacked . this is the story of her awakening back to life with the help of the most unlikely of romantic interests , her convicted attacker ' s brother . this book had some romance , drama , suspense , mystery . . . even arguably a unique retelling of the classic beauty and the beast fairytale . it ' s a quick read , but there ' s an awful lot packed into it . even being outside my usual genres ( paranormal & the like ) , i thoroughly enjoyed it .

i have heard so many good and bad things about this book ! after reading a review i just knew this book wasn ' t for me . after hearing good things about this book from several book friends i was still not reading . but one day i went on netgalley , after being in a horrible funk and requested to review . i had this book on my ipad for the longest time and i finally read 4 days before its release . at the 40 % mark i found myself not hating this book like i thought i would . this book was so different than what i was expecting . granted the whole falling in love while she was a minor was rough for me . several times i kept saying she ' s a child stop but i also felt their connection . what kind of person does this make me ? ! several times i would say aww how sweet but then i remembered wavy was just a child ! ! ! this book isn ' t for everyone and lord knows i didn ' t think i would like it but i did . even though there are some uneasy scenes in this book , the whole book wasn ' t based on their taboo relationship . wavy and her brother , donal suffered tragedy after tragedy . no kids should have gone through what they did . every time things got a little better the rug would get pulled from under them . this book truly does show all the ugly and wonderful things in life . the story was one of a kind and i couldn ' t stop reading . the writing was excellent . i would have given it 5 stars but the messing around while she was a minor wasn ' t cool . this story will definitely stay with me for a long time . i ' m happy i forced myself way outside my comfort zone and read this story . i look forward to reading more works from this author . 4 . 5 stars
5 stars i love out of the box , controversial reads . i love stories that are a bit forbidden and / or on the taboo side . when reviews started coming in for this book i’d never heard of , i knew i had to read it asap . so i picked up the book around 10 pm thinking - i’ll just start it , see how it is . yeah . i bet you all can guess what happened after that… i stayed up all night reading it . i couldn’t stop even if i wanted to . my eyes were literally burning when i reached 65 % , but i carried on . when i fi

i was a five star rater , and yes i understand it’s very disturbing . but i’ve also been a social worker for almost 20 years . . . and there’s a line in the book , can’t recall exactly but something like “this is my family” and it was her unique circumstances ( not all that unusual btw for kids escaping abuse ) that challenged me to have empathy for all of the characters . i thought the book was brilliant in how it made me think and feel . and what’s most fascinating is how extreme reactions both ways it creates . that in itself is pretty interesting . my book club read it and we were 50 / 50 split !

offering further evidence that — in the wake of 2012’s anton’s right here and the recent cannes critics’ week winner the tribe — the former soviet union is a lousy place to raise children with special needs , director ivan tverdovsky ’s drama corrections class focuses on a gaggle of disabled teens in a russian high school . ghettoized and neglected by the school and bullied by their peers , the kids turn on each other when the fragile balance of the group is thrown out of whack by the arrival of a newcomer . progressively disturbing but not without moments of humor , joy and grace , corrections class won the best debut prize at sochi’s kinotavr festival and plays in karlovy vary’s east - of the - west competition .

late in ivan tverdovskii’s corrections class , svetlana viktorovna ( natalia pavlenkova ) pushes her wheelchair - using teenage daughter lena ( maria poezhaeva ) up to a freshly - installed two - track ramp at the entrance to lena’s high school . ( the structure , scaling some concrete stairs , has been a topic of discussion throughout the film ; earlier we observed it being built . )
taking place in what appears the greater moscow suburban area ( those trains run often , never stopping ) , the film spends its first half - hour setting the stage : a special “corrections class” in which kids with various disabilities—some obvious , some not—learn together , awaiting the day when a special commission will determine whether they can be placed in “normal” classes . but as kasianova ( 2014 ) points out , though the teachers all speak in gushy tones about “inclusive” rights to education , the corrections class itself is physically set apart from the able - bodied students by a prison - like , barred gate . moreover , lena is berated for arriving late—though the absence of ramps or lifts make getting to the upper - floor classroom no easy task for a wheelchair - user .

the performances are all remarkable , considering that some of the teens appear to be non - professionals . poezhaeva and avdeyev are remarkable , as well as the menacing and manic kukushkin . “corrections class” is a bracing jolt of fresh cinematic blood . it’s a film teeming with intense emotions that cover the spectrum of the human experience . it is wild , audacious , and seethes with a manic energy . the wholly unique style marks an auspicious debut for tverdovsky that should not be missed . [ a ]
it’s hard to talk about ivan i . tverdovsky ’s “ corrections class ” immediately after seeing it because it’s simply overwhelming , emotionally and intellectually . i walked out of the theater sort of slack - jawed and agog , unable to put the experience into words . the film has a manic , madcap energy , and an immediate , visceral and jarring audio and visual presence . this is chaotic , and in that chaos , true and unflinching moments are revealed , funny and dark and bruising and absurd .

the florida department of corrections has partnered with florida - based smart horizons career online education , the world’s first sacs accredited online school district , to offer fldoc online campus to inmates . the program was launched by the florida department of corrections in 2012 and recently expanded to include fifteen correctional facilities in the fldoc system . inmates complete a career certificate as part of the program , so that they graduate with vocational skills that can be applied in a job post - release . the ultimate goal is to keep offenders from returning to prison . fldoc studies have shown that recidivism drops from almost fifty percent to twenty percent when inmates reengage their educational careers .
today , “the class” is worth remembering for a cast filled with promising young actors who , in the years since the cancellation , have gone on to populate a bumper crop of hits . among the other “class” - mates were jesse tyler ferguson ( “modern family” ) , sean maguire ( “once upon a time” ) , jon bernthal ( “the walking dead” ) and jason ritter ( “parenthood” ) .

since then , russia has yet to translate its 2012 ratification of the united nations convention on the rights of persons with disabilities and other progressive legislation into widespread , sustained change . more than any recent film on this subject , corrections class articulates the palpable , daily disgrace of such dehumanization . as koretskii ( 2014 ) puts it : “tverdovskii very precisely and lucidly conveys the atmosphere of general shame that prevails in a repressed society ( not necessarily russian—the film exhibits a kafkaesque universalism ) , when the very basis of your existence becomes obscene , when the piece of repulsive filth—is you . ”

“it’s always very gratifying to meet fldoc online campus students in person and see them graduate and look to a brighter future as a result , ” stated dr . howard liebman , ceo and superintendent of the shcoe district . “smart horizons career online education is proud to team with the florida department of corrections on this groundbreaking program that allows students to change their lives for the better . ”
the initial classification assessment establishes an offender’s custody level upon his / her admission to the mississippi department of corrections ( mdoc ) . this custody level is scored on a numerical scale to identify the type and level of risk likely to be presented by the offender . the offender will be afforded a hearing and notification of the decisions regarding a facility assignment , program eligibility , and supervision requirements .
the film opens with a scene that is an accurate bellwether for the darkness that it explores . lena ( maria poezhaeva ) is with her mother on the way to her first day at school when they are stopped at the train tracks where a boy has been hit . they try , but it’s impossible to avoid the splatter of blood and bone . lena is wheelchair - bound with a muscular disease , myopathy . she’s been assigned to the corrections class , which is a bit like special ed , though the students there don’t seem to have any mental disabilities , but rather physical ones such as dwarfism , epilepsy , stuttering .

all these measures have different advantages and disadvantages . since they behave differently under balanced and imbalanced datasets , it is important to consider the class distribution of the data at hand or to be analysed in future applications and to select appropriate measures for meaningful performance evaluations .
fans , too , championed the series online , even after the show was canceled . “there was a site dedicated to ‘the class’ that was on the web for years , ” ms . halston said . “people who liked the show really liked the show . ”
the injustices of the educational system are brought to light in this emotionally powerful story of students with learning disabilities who are all grouped together in a class that infuriatingly focuses on having them earn the right to rejoin their more ‘normal’ peers . producer natasha mokritskaya scheduled to attend .
corrections class opens as lena’s mom pushes her to her new school in her wheelchair . lena is an attractive and bright teenager who has been homeschooled her entire life . now for the first time , she is going to be a part of a classroom and maybe even have a group of school friends . kids with disabilities are assigned to their own room , and it’s soon learned that a special commission will test them to determine if they are able to join a “normal” classroom . lena fits in with her disabled peers right away , but when she and anton ( who has epilepsy ) begin to form a romantic relationship , it deeply disturbs the class dynamic and outrages the school staff . director ivan tverdovskii is a 26 - year old filmmaker dubbed by the press an as “infant lars von trier . ” without cliché or pity , he presents an eye - opening portrait of the disabled in russia . his documentary - style dramatic feature debut is a passionate attempt to not only show the handicapped as normal people , but to expose the injustices of the educational situation in this powerful and shocking drama . director biography ivan i . tverdovsky is a graduate of russian institute for cinematography who was awarded at multiple russian and international festivals for his previous documentary works . correcton class is ivan’s debut feature work .
the scene—told in an improvised documentary style , with hand - held shots and jump cuts—functions as both true - to - life metaphor ( reflecting the experience of millions in russia ) [ 1 ] and acrid , cringing comedy ( particularly when coming immediately after a brutal gang rape scene ) . tverdovskii often treads this thin line between exploitation and outrage , diving deep into subject matter which most other directors ( and audiences ) would prefer not to even countenance . [ 2 ] as a result , corrections class is the most insightful , unflinching and hell - raising feature ever made about disability in russia . its message : the disabled—despite much lip - service to “inclusivity” and enlightened educational practice—rise to the top of no one’s priority list ( to put it mildly ) .
lena ( masha poezhaeva ) is a bright and beautiful girl , confined to a wheelchair for most of the time . after studying at home for years , she is assigned to a special class for disabled pupils who have to prove to a commission at the end of the school year that they are “worthy” of attending “normal” classes with other children . the class is populated by students who have a wide variety of impairments , from down syndrome , through bipolar disorder , to simple stuttering . such a fascist institutional set - up builds anger in the viewer right from the start .
while the baseline is fixed with roc , the baseline of prc is determined by the ratio of positives ( p ) and negatives ( n ) as y = p / ( p + n ) . for instance , we have y = 0 . 5 for a balanced class distribution , but y = 0 . 09 for an imbalanced class distribution in which the ratio of p : n is 1 : 10 ( see fig . 2b ) . because of this moving baseline , auc ( prc ) also changes with the p : n ratio . for instance , the auc ( prc ) of random classifiers is 0 . 5 only for balanced class distributions , whereas it is p / ( p + n ) for the general case , including balanced and imbalanced distributions . in fact , auc ( prc ) is identical to the y - position of the prc baseline .
based on the book by ekaterina murashova . „correction class“ is an artificially created school ghetto for problem children . the film heroes are on the threshold of adult life . they still have a last chance to change their fate . the first love , the first rivalry and the first treachery await them .
the class is based on an autobiographical novel by author and former teacher françois bégaudeau , about working at a tough multi - ethnic school in the parisian banlieux . remarkably , bégaudeau plays himself , or a version of himself ; he does it very well , although as teaching is all about putting on a performance commanding enough to subdue the toughest audiences , maybe that shouldn ' t surprise us . his class of 14 - to 15 - year - old kids in the film is made up of non - professionals , and their unobtrusively superb and authentic classroom scenes have evidently been devised through improvisation .
discovering how these childhood acquaintances — and their loved ones and new loves — formed adult alliances was the complicated lesson plan of “the class . ” rewatching the series , which was recently released on dvd by the warner archive , it’s clear that casual viewers would have a hard time keeping up with so many characters , even with a “previously on ‘the class’ ” opener to each episode . critics warned the creators about this . a writer for usa today , for instance , warned that “ juggling such a large cast won’t be easy . ” but experimenting with the sitcom form was what its creators had in mind from the start .
the network had given the series a high - visibility time slot : mondays at 8 p . m . as mr . klarik put it , “i felt like gypsy rose lee when her mother threw her out on the stage . ” then a month later , cbs moved “the class” a half - hour later , sandwiching it between two established hits , “how i met your mother” and “two and a half men . ” the new show drew decent ratings . the writing was sharp . one critic , matt mitovich in tv guide , declared , “ i smell another ‘mother’ . ” but “the class” never garnered the high nielsen numbers that show and “two and a half men” enjoyed .
the sheer lucid force of the class is compelling and exhilarating . cantet ' s final tableau shots of the empty classroom , like a deserted battlefield , made the hairs on the back of my neck prickle . there are very few films that can claim to make their audiences into happier and smarter people . i think this could be one .
the trickiest member of the class is souleymane ( franck keita ) , a boy from mali with family problems and a temper . souleymane cheekily tells françois that he has heard the teacher
likes men
- and insolently says that this is not his own accusation , just something he has heard . happily , françois finds a way to get through to souleymane : he turns out to take great photos of his family on his mobile phone and françois gets him to use these pictures in an autobiographical class project : it is a euphoric breakthrough . but things turn very sour when two girls are allowed to sit in on a staff discussion on standards and behaviour and gleefully report some disobliging remarks back to souleymane , who is deeply angry and hurt after his class - project triumph , with no vocabulary to express his sense of betrayal . françois himself is coldly furious at the girls ' indiscretion and accuses them in class of behaving like
pétasses
-
skanks
- crucially losing his cool and compromising his authority . that crude insult ignites a violent row , which becomes toxic when françois neglects to mention the
skanks
provocation in his official report . when challenged , françois airily insists he was not saying that they were
skanks
, merely that they were behaving as such - the same species of dishonest sophistry that souleymane used with his
gay
jibe .
at school , lena and her mom are told off by the officious principal ( veteran natalya domeretskaya ) for being late even though the building has no wheelchair ramps or elevators which means lena has to make the slow , painful walk up the stairs on foot . she soon meets her peers in the corrections class , a sort of holding pen for physically and mentally challenged students , most of whom would probably be blended into the mainstream in settings with a more enlightened attitude toward disability . shy , handsome anton ( filipp avdeev ) , for instance , has epilepsy . another girl ( maria uryadova ) has dwarfism . mitya ( artyom markaryan ) has a stutter , while his sister vitya ( yulia serina ) reports she’s not actually sick at all . it’s never revealed what’s supposed to be amiss with ringleader misha ( nikita kukushkin ) , who seems perfectly able - bodied if clearly damaged psychologically , judging by later events .
cost curves ( cc ) . the cc plots are also unchanged between balanced and imbalanced datasets ( fig . 5c ) . cc is considerably different from the other roc variants in terms of the interpretation of the plot . it shows the classification performances for different pcf ( + ) values that are based on misclassification costs and class probabilities . c ( - | + ) represents the cost of misclassifying positives as negatives , and c ( + | - ) represents the cost of misclassifying negatives as positives . p ( + ) and p ( - ) represent class probabilities for positives and negatives , respectively . misclassification costs are often unknown but can for example be estimated from the class distributions . for instance , misclassification costs can be c ( - | + ) = 1 and c ( + | - ) = 1 for a balanced , and c ( - | + ) = 91 and c ( + | - ) = 9 for an imbalanced dataset . this would mean that the misclassification of positives as negatives is considerably more expensive than the misclassification of negatives as positives . to get the pcf ( + ) value of 0 . 5 ( red dots with black circle in fig . 5c ) , the corresponding class probabilities are p ( + ) = 0 . 5 and p ( - ) = 0 . 5 for the balanced dataset and p ( + ) = 0 . 09 and p ( - ) = 0 . 91 for the imbalanced dataset . once the pcf ( + ) value of interest is determined , it is easy to compare the performances of multiple classifiers . cost curves are useful when the testing of various misclassification costs and class probabilities is required , but a good understanding of pcf ( + ) and ne [ c ] is mandatory .
when elle attends her first class at law school , a classroom layout is placed in front of her . she does not write her name on it or pass it on , but when her teacher picks it up and looks at the layout she knows who elle is and where she sits , even thought she didn ' t write her name on it .
in the end , mr . ferguson said , the cancellation of “the class” may have been the best thing to ever happen to mr . crane and mr . klarik . “if that’s the way they’re getting their sweet revenge , ” mr . ferguson said , “i’m hoping more horrible things happen to them because they’ll transform them into really wonderful , hilarious situations . ”
lena is a bright , disabled girl who , after years spent studying at home , is keen to get back to school . she is assigned to a special class for disabled pupils who have to present themselves before a school commission at the end of the year in order to prove that they merit being moved back into a
normal
class . her enervated teachers , however , show absolutely no desire to motivate the students and help them improve ; on the contrary , they try to quash right from the start any interest lena shows in more complex study material . nevertheless , lena soon involves herself in the school routine and gets together with classmate anton . yet their transparent happiness is not to everyone ' s liking and repercussions soon follow .

as the story goes , the show’s producers and its director , the veteran james burrows , were so convinced “the class” would be a hit that they celebrated its pickup to series in lavish fashion . “they flew all of us to vegas on a private plane for the evening , ” recalled lizzy caplan , who now stars as the sex therapist virginia johnson on showtime’s “masters of sex . ”
class imbalance—a difference in the numbers of positive and negative instances , usually with the negatives outnumbering the positives—occurs in a wide range of scientific areas , including the life sciences , where unequal class distributions arise naturally [ 6 – 9 ] . the classification of imbalanced datasets is a relatively new challenge in the field of machine learning [ 5 , 10 ] . while many solutions for binary classification on imbalanced data have been proposed [ 5 , 11 ] , they are mostly related to either data resampling [ 7 , 12 – 14 ] or model - training [ 15 – 19 ] . despite the development of state - of - the - art solutions for the building of classifiers with imbalanced data [ 5 , 11 , 20 ] , selecting a suitable performance evaluation method is often underestimated .
although the leads are trained actors , mostly students at director kirill serebrennikov ’s theater academy , the performances from non - professional performers blend seamlessly with the ensemble , evincing a proper directorial skills from tverdovsky . shot mostly on handheld rigs by dop fedor struchev , the film has some of that immediacy and ebullience seen in the better high - school - set films , like laurent cantet’s the class .
it was a sitcom about philadelphia - area third graders who reunited in their late 20s , and it was spun from the fertile minds of david crane , a creator of “friends , ” and jeffrey klarik , a writer - producer of “mad about you . ” in the fall of 2006 , “the class” was the new cbs show with the season’s highest hopes . it was not to be dismissed .
can i call the inmate or can he / she call me while in the reception process ? while in reception center , the inmate will not have telephone privileges nor will he / she be able to receive packages . however he / she can receive mail and writing supplies . the majority of prisons allow 10 stamped envelopes , and a writing tablet to be mailed in first class mail to the inmate .
the inmate reclassification score sheet is used to review and update an inmate’s custody rating throughout his / her incarceration in the mississippi department of corrections . the purpose of the reassessment process is to ensure the inmate’s placement in the least restrictive environment while ensuring public safety and the security of the institution , staff and all inmates . the custody rating is based upon an assessment of eight ( 8 ) items that are scored on a numerical scale . these items have been found to be associated with institutional conduct and risk of escape and , thus , help to identify the type and level of risk likely to be presented by the inmate . the reclassification score sheet is used when making decisions relating to the inmate’s facility re - assignment , program eligibility , and supervision requirements .
about the result in gordon v . steele . she responds that the court held that there was not diversity jurisdiction . the professor replies that selma is correct . but , this is entirely the wrong answer . the court in that case held that there was diversity jurisdiction . merely getting a case wrong would seem trivial , but again this is literally the first case any law student studies in civil procedure , a first year class . how could a screenwriter get this basic case completely wrong ?
lena falls in love with anton ( philipp avdeev ) , the “pretty boy” in the class . their relationship will turn out to be almost fatal due not only to the social unawareness of the faculty and the backwards , “traditional” ideas of their families , but even more so to the cruelty of their peers . children are cruel , and children who have been subjected to malevolence in school , society and even their own families , only because they are different , often turn out brutal .
the cost curve ( cc ) is an alternative to the roc plot [ 12 , 28 ] . cost curves analyse classification performance by varying operating points [ 5 ] . operating points are based on class probabilities and misclassification costs . the normalized expected cost or ne [ c ] represents the classification performance on the y - axis [ 28 ] . it is similar to the error rate , and therefore lower ne [ c ] values indicate better classifiers . the probability cost function ( + ) or pcf ( + ) represents the operating points on the x - axis [ 28 ] . pcf ( + ) is based on the probability of correctly classifying positives , and it is calculated by class probabilities and misclassification costs [ 5 ] . the actual calculations of pcf ( + ) and ne [ c ] are considerably more complex than the calculations involved in roc and prc plots ( see supplementary methods in s1 file for the pcf ( + ) and ne [ c ] calculations ) .
the film’s most potent scenes revel in such complexity , radically treating its subjects as flawed , even cynical human beings rather than mere moral paragons of suffering . nothing quite like them has ever appeared in russian cinema before ; they seem determined to flout audience preconceptions . an early scene in fact mocks the tired notion of the “pathetic” cripple : lena and her new friends from class beg for alms on the street—and use the money for party supplies ( they exploit lena’s wheelchair to cut in line at the cashier for good measure ) .
a biting satire of television , in which matt leblanc plays a version of himself as a once - famous actor headlining a dumbed - down american adaptation of a smart british series , “episodes” has no problem poking the eye of network television . ( cbs , which canceled “the class , ” owns showtime . ) “we’re very discreet about saying who might inspire whom , ” mr . crane said . “the characters are invented to a great degree . but practically every single thing that has happened on ‘episodes’ has happened to one or both of us . ”
the fact that he is a
high - powered defense attorney
means he can pick and choose his cases and charge exorbitant amounts of cash so he doesn ' t need to take very many cases to stay wealthy . as such he ' d have all kinds of time to teach a full - time class at harvard law . the money he gets from that would mean even fewer cases he had to take on . the
embryo lesson
was only to give an example of what works in the courtroom ; things that may prove useful in a criminal hearing .
it is important to recognize that the evaluation in the training phase is different from the evaluation of the final model . the first phase is to select the most effective and robust model during training . it usually divides a training dataset further into training and validation subsets , for example for cross - validation [ 21 ] . the second phase is to evaluate the final model after the training . ideally , the test data of this phase reflects the class distributions of the original population even though such distributions are usually unknown . this article exclusively analyses the performance evaluation of the final model .
tverdovskii does incline to dostoevskian scandal : another tryst between lena and anton at the latter’s home ends similarly , with the couple interrupted by anton’s horrified mother polina grigorevna ( ol’ga lapshina ) . disability and teen sex : two things guaranteed to send adults in this film into hysterics . [ 12 ] and certainly correction class ’s most flagrantly exploitational scene—the gang rape—will go too far for some viewers . why show the disabled in such a contemptible , inhuman light , tormenting one of their own ? might not such imagery undo the film’s attempts to cast them as fully - fledged people rather than monsters ?
there was no error in that scene . when the professor asks vivian if there was diversity jurisdiction
in this case ,
she was referring to elle being kicked out of class . at the very end of that exchange , just before the scene changes , the professor begins to ask vivian ,
what about in gordon v . steele ?
she was merely trying to contrast the two scenarios . incidentally , not all civ pro professors choose to use gordon v . steele to instruct their students on diversity jurisdiction cases , nor do they all choose diversity jurisdiction as the very first topic to cover in the course .
while the 58 studies vary across a wide range of research fields , five studies are from the field of microrna ( mirna ) gene discovery ( table f in s1 file ) . mirnas are a class of small rnas that have important regulatory roles in plants and animals [ 53 ] , and finding genome locations of mirna genes is a popular but challenging field in bioinformatics [ 54 ] . we selected the mirfinder study [ 30 ] for re - analysis with prc for three reasons : it uses roc in conjunction with imbalanced data , the test data is available , and the classifier can produce scores , which is necessary for being able to create roc and prc plots .
disability in russia today indeed , 21st - century russians with disabilities , especially outside the country’s major population centers , continue to live a second - class existence that would be recognizable to their counterparts from a generation ago—and in some ways to their early soviet ones as well . lena’s plight , for example , recalls both ksenia klimova’s reality - based short story “steps” from the early 1990s—“anyone who has ever seen a person in a wheelchair climbing a staircase by pulling themselves up along a handrail , will never forget it” ( klimova 1996 : 143 ) —and post - wwii reports that red army veterans in need of prosthetic limbs often had trouble entering the very facilities designated for their fittings .

the dog - eared trump card of this kind of movie is that the teacher learns something from the kids . it happens here - after a fashion . françois is forced to leave the citadel of the classroom , the home of his authority , and descend to the level of the playground to confront esmeralda and khoumba on the
skanks
issue . neither side gives ground , and yet the fact that françois has to argue it out on the asphalt , on equal terms , is a kind of humbling , a swallowing of pride . and in a way , françois does learn something : he learns that , however vaguely he intended to use the word , for his working - class teenage pupils ,
skank
means
prostitute
.
at the beginning of the year , the teachers go around introducing themselves to the new staff , and one goes through the list of pupils for one newcomer , briefing him grimly about each child :
gentil
or
pas gentil
-
nice
or
not nice
- with the latter seemingly the majority . in françois ' s class , esmeralda ( esmeralda ouertani ) and khoumba ( rachel regulier ) predominate : they are smart but moody , idle and subversive , and just savvy enough about françois ' s liberal scruples to wind him up . when he chalks up examples of good and bad grammar on the blackboard , they ask pointedly why he uses anglo - saxon names such as
bill
and not , say ,
rachid

strong performances elevate this bleak portrait of special - needs education , russian - style . twitter
set in what looks like a pretty nondescript , typically cruddy - looking suburb that could be anywhere in russia , the story revolves around a large school incorporating both elementary and secondary school - aged children , a structure that could just as easily pass for a factory or a mental asylum . on her way to her first day at school , pretty 11th - grader lena ( maria poezhaeva ) , who has myopathy which confines her mostly to a wheelchair , and her mother ( natalia pavlenkova ) have to wait to cross a railway line . another teenager has been killed on the tracks , sounding a somewhat too obvious symbolic note of doom .
all the kids will soon be assessed at an upcoming , cross - body commission about whether they can be blended into the mainstream . some , like lena , hope this will be the case in order to improve her future job prospects , but others have given up all hope of integration .
at first , sparky , naturally defiant lena fits right into the core gang , who bring her along , despite her limited mobility , on their excursions to the railway tracks where they like to play games of chicken by lying down on the tracks and letting trains whizz over them . she , in turn , teaches them how to beg for money to buy booze and candy . although misha is clearly attracted to her , she soon pairs up with anton , but their budding romance creates jealousy in the group and sparks outrage among the adult world when the two are caught making out in the toilet and later are caught in flagrante delicto in bed by anton’s vilely prejudiced mother ( olga lapshina ) .
the third act takes a brutal turn , even judging by the standards of so - often relentlessly pessimistic russian drama . a cruel act of vandalism is swiftly followed by an attempted gang rape and beating and , just to top things off , the much - anticipated commission turns out to be an exercise in humiliation with the school authorities and medical professionals riding rough - shod over the wishes of parents and children .
even so , it’s refreshing that dmitri lanchikhin and tverdovsky’s script , freely adapted from a novel by ekaterina murashova , takes pains to point out that at least some of the adult figures aren’t completely callous . there are subtle hints that underfunding , poor training and the endemic xenophobia of russian society are the real villains here .
lena is immediately taken in by her new school friends , hanging out after school in scenes that capture the wild giddiness of teenage freedom . they scam money for snacks , hang out by the train tracks , flirt and tease and fight . their main hobby ( aside from bullshitting ) is tempting fate lying underneath oncoming trains ( the dead boy was one of them ) . they do it for the adrenaline rush , and the activity captures that razor’s edge between dangerous fun and outright body horror on which the film tiptoes .
lena is drawn to the handsome anton ( filipp avdeyev ) and first love blooms quickly . tverdovsky perfectly captures the headrush and raging hormones of teenage love . but their flowering sexual tension reverberates throughout the group , sending shockwaves that spur the gossipy vika and the brutish , violent misha ( nikita kukushkin ) , not to mention the parents and teachers .
the camera is a constantly roaming and immediate entity , in the mix of the group of kids at eye - level . the sound design also emphasizes the immediacy , the dialogue constantly overlapping and interrupting . the audience is positioned as a member of the group itself , privy to all the intimate moments , conflicts , slights , outrageous joy , and deep wells of darkness among them . the adults ( and it’s interesting to note it’s all women , there is but one male adult in the film , briefly ) attempt to exert moral superiority over the kids , but they are just as , if not more , chaotic and corrupt , their scolding and yells a cacophony that sometimes erupts in a flurry of slaps and smacks . lena faces outright discrimination at her school for her disability , from the very first second , as she and her mother fight their way through a crowd , up and down steps , scolded for being late by the very , very evil headmistress . lena is damned on all sides for her body : for its disability , and for its sexuality . she takes it with her head high , laughing in its face most days .
