} | 596 | Study Claims That Playing Tetris Helps You Cope With Traumatic Experiences
A recent study claims that playing a game like Tetris might just help you get through everyday life after suffering a tragic experience. Sounds crazy? Here's the science.
Playing the computer game Tetris after a horrific experience can act like a "cognitive antibiotic" by reducing the harrowing flashbacks that haunt people with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Flashbacks are a hallmark of PTSD, especially among soldiers who have witnessed terrible events in combat. Soldiers with PTSD are more likely to be disabled or to die from accident or illness than those who do not, even decades later. "It's the kind of memory that pops back when you don't want it to," says Emily Holmes, a clinical psychology researcher at the University of Oxford.
Last year Holmes showed that if volunteers played Tetris for half an hour after looking at graphic images of injuries, they had fewer unwanted memories of the images as a result. But it wasn't clear whether the game simply acted as a distraction or the effect was common to all computer games, she says.
Holmes's latest research suggests that this effect may only occur with visuospatial games, of which Tetris is the classic example.
In her latest experiments, Holmes again showed volunteers the traumatic images and then compared the number of flashbacks experienced by Tetris players with the corresponding number among volunteers who had played a general knowledge "pub quiz" game; a control group had no computer game to play. She found not only that Tetris players seemed to have almost half as many flashbacks as normal, but that those playing the general knowledge game experienced slightly more than normal. "It made it worse in the short term," she says.
What's more, the beneficial effects of Tetris remain even when played 4 hours after the trauma, says Holmes. This suggests that the game is not just a distraction, but is interfering with the mechanisms that form the intrusive memories, she says.
Flashbacks are caused when there is an imbalance between our perceptual experience – what we see, hear, taste and smell – and the conceptual experience that allows us to comprehend and make sense of it all. During a trauma, such as a high-speed car crash, the perceptual experience can be emphasised over the conceptual, says Holmes. This can make it difficult to remember the event as a coherent story, instead imprinting it in memory as a raw set of perceptual experiences: the flash of headlights and the grinding of metal, say. It is this kind of memory that can cause great distress to a victim by repeatedly popping up, Holmes says.
But it can take up to 6 hours after a trauma for the brain to create these intrusive memories from these events, leaving a window of opportunity to prevent them from forming. According to Holmes the Tetris effect occurs because the visuospatial work required to play the game places an additional burden on the perceptual systems within the brain and so interfere with this memory-forming process.
"It's not wiping out the memory – it's just taking the edge off its intrusiveness," she says. In contrast, the verbal game appears to interfere with our conceptual experience, making it difficult to make sense of the perceptual memories and so exacerbating the flashbacks.

I Am Divine
Glen Milstead aka Divine was unquestionably John Water’s finest actor and muse. Not simply because of his talent that was as outsize as his physique, but because like Waters he was both totally fearless and dared to push the boundaries of bad taste as far as he possibly could. And he did it all in such outrageous style and unfettered enthusiasm that made him such an iconic cult figure.
In filmmaker Jeffery Schwarz’s new very upbeat documentary on this unique entertainer and character we learn that Divine had always dreamt on being a movie star since he was a kid who had been picked on and bullied at school as being both effeminate and fat. And he did deservedly become one and was just about to parlay his major underground success into the mainstream with a (non-drag) part in a national syndicated TV sitcom when he dropped down dead in Hollywood after a massive heart attack the very day before filming was due to start. He was just 42 years old. Manager, Bernard Jay poignantly claimed that as Divine was at the peak of his career, he had at least died happy.
Divine and John Waters both grew up in Baltimore and met when they were teenagers. They made anarchic campy home movies together at the beginning with exaggerated characters in outrageous situations with hyperbolic dialogues. They were never meant to be shown outside of their wee band of local actors that included Mink Stole, Edith Massey, and David Lochary (the latter becoming a big love of Divine’s life before his own untimely death). But word got out and soon people were clamoring to see the films that got bigger and even bolder.
Water’s ‘trashy trilogy’ ‘Pink Flamingos’, ‘Female Trouble’, and ‘Desperate Living’ cemented Divine’s reputation as a movie diva, in particular Flamingos which earned him the title of ‘the filthiest person alive’ after the notorious scene where he actually ate dog feces. And after these successes he also started to diversify his career taking starring roles in Off Broadway shows, and becoming a very successful disco recording star. He added a whole new meaning to the word ‘fierce’!
Many of the interviewees that Schwartz included gave Divine great credit for expanding the concept of the drag queen from brash female impersonator into something much larger, more subversive and less gender specific. Yet without a single exception none of the TV chat show hosts that interviewed him could deal with the fact that Divine was sitting opposite them in men’s clothing calmly stating that ‘she’ was a character that he played and not the person he actually was off the screen.
Matinee idol Tab Hunter recounted the joy he had at working with Divine on two very successful movies ‘Polyester’ and ‘Lust in The Dust’. These were followed by ‘Hairspray’ , which turned out to be Divine’s biggest hit and very last movie.
Schwarz beautifully captures both the joyous nature of Divine’s flamboyant life and also the great sense of sheer enjoyment he had. He includes the completely tasteless clip from ‘Eat Your Makeup.’ in which Divine played Jacqueline Kennedy in a grotesquely amusing re-creation of the Kennedy assassination just two years after event. But he also shows the scene from ‘Multiple Maniacs’ where Divine’s character is raped by a giant lobster! A perfect epitaph.
Someone said towards the end of the movie …. ‘after him, no-one can ever now be called Divine …. he OWNS that title’. Too true.
An unmissable flawless movie.

Penn State Scandal Escalates; Rick Perry Doing Damage Control
Aired November 10, 2011 - 22:00 ET
ANDERSON COOPER, CNN ANCHOR: Hey. Good evening, everyone, 10:00 p.m. on the East Coast.
We begin "Keeping Them Honest" with the Penn State child sex abuse scandal at Penn State, the alleged abuse of eight children over a span of 15 years, eight children at this point that authorities know about, abused by Jerry Sandusky, say authorities, a once and later former top assistant to head football coach Joe Paterno.
That is Sandusky right there. He set up a charity for troubled kids from broken homes, allegedly grooming some of them for abuse. He is now facing 40 criminal charges, though he is out on bail right now.
There is breaking news tonight on that. Our Jason Carroll just spoke with Sandusky's attorney, is learning new details about how his client plans to fight the charges against him. And, yes, right now, they say they are going to fight those charges. We're going to talk to Jason shortly.
Before we do that, we want to run through the evidence, because there's a lot of evidence suggesting that so many people so early on knew so much about so much about such revolting allegations, yet seemingly did so little about it.
Tonight, Joe Paterno is out. So is the university president. He's out. And last night, a lot of students did a lot of venting about that on campus, calling for Paterno to play one last game this weekend. They overturned a TV truck, chanted "One more game" and the university cheer, "We are Penn State."
But for the past few days, a lot of people have been asking, what is Penn State?
Overnight Joe Paterno, JoePa to his followers, looked and sounded just like the image he enjoyed for so many years, the no-nonsense, academics-first, do-the-right-thing coach. He told protesters to go home and hit the books.
Hey, good luck, everybody. Thanks for coming. (CROSSTALK)
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Thank you for everything. Thank you.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: You're a legend, Joe.
COOPER: It's that image of a coach so revered that's so at odds with the sickening details of this case and the details really matter in this case.
And the details really matter in this case. We want to tell you a little bit, a few of the excerpts from the grand jury finding of fact. I want to read you one of them -- quote -- "While in the shower, Sandusky approached the boy, grabbed him around the waist, and said, I'm going to squeeze your guts out." This allegedly happened in 1998.
When his mother learned about it, she went to the university police. She confronted coach Sandusky who was at the time Joe Paterno's defensive coordinator.
The mother let campus and local police eavesdrop on two conversations she had with the coach. According to the grand jury finding -- quote -- "She asked him if his private parts touched victim 6. Sandusky replied, I don't think so. Maybe."
Later according to the finding he tells victim 6's mom -- quote -- "I was wrong. I wish I could get forgiveness. I know I won't get it from you. I wish I were dead."
The grand jury report says he admitted wrongdoing to campus police.
In addition university police detective Ronald Shreffler told the grand jury that at this -- at the time his investigation also included a second child who he says he was subjected to nearly identical treatment by coach Sandusky.
And these are serious allegations and more than one of them. So what happened next? Well, according to the grand jury finding, not much. Detectives Shreffler advised Sandusky not to shower with any child again, and the coach promised not to. He promised.
So the local DA didn't see fit to prosecute, and the university police merely warned coach Sandusky not to do it again.
So is that believable? According to the grand jury not entirely -- quote -- "The grand jury finds that portions of the testimony of Tim Curley and Gary Schultz are not credible." And cites them for making materially false statements under oath.
As for the accuser, the grad student, well, his name is Mike McQueary. Guess what? He is now Penn State's receivers coach. The grand jury found his account highly credible. It also found that what McQueary witnessed should have been reported to law enforcement and Child Welfare if not by McQueary himself and Tim Curley or Gary Schultz or, as many are saying, by Joe Paterno.
Jason, what are you hearing?
JASON CARROLL, CNN NATIONAL CORRESPONDENT: Well, I spoke to Joseph Amendola just about an hour ago, Anderson. He's extremely frustrated.
COOPER: Did you ask about the grand jury testimony?
CARROLL: Yes, absolutely. He basically told us that Sandusky at this point feels devastated. Another word that he used is destroyed. Obviously, these two men were very close, Sandusky and Coach Joe Paterno, they had been connected for many, many years. He says that -- quote -- it is eating him up that these allegations have brought down a man who he called a legend -- Anderson.
COOPER: Jason, thanks.
COOPER: That he's going to fight these charges?
GIGER: No --
COOPER: -- coaching in a football game?
So when you talk about this scandal, who knew? Who knew what and who knew it when, I have got to believe as the days and weeks go on we're going to find out that many, many more people knew about the 1998 incident and the 2002 incident. It's just, you know, common sense that would lead you to believe somebody might tell somebody and then tell somebody else. And then really one thing that would be devastating would be if we were to find out that officials with the Second Mile organization knew about these allegations -- these incidents in 1998 and 2002, because the Second Mile has been a tremendous help to a lot of young kids, at-risk kids.
Let's be clear, villain number one here is Jerry Sandusky. I have heard from so many students who were just really furious that there hasn't been more focus on Sandusky the past couple of days as opposed to Paterno, because the students rightly or wrongly they felt that Paterno was vilified when Sandusky actually started the whole mess.
Cory, appreciate you joining us tonight, Sunny Hostin, Jean Casarez as well.
Let us know what you think. We're on Facebook and Google+. You can follow me on Twitter @AndersonCooper. I will be tweeting tonight.
And later "Raw Politics": the fallout from Rick Perry's pretty astonishing outbreak of brain freeze last night.
GOV. RICK PERRY (R-TX), PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE: It's three agencies of government when I get there that are gone. Commerce, education and the -- what's the third one there? Let's see.
Once again, here's Jason Carroll.
CARROLL: But that's exactly what prosecutors say was the problem.
CARROLL (on camera): For children who are impoverished, abused or neglected, the Second Mile provides opportunities that otherwise might be hard to come by. Things like summer camps, leadership training, and counseling. Each year the organization claims to serve some 100,000 children across the state of Pennsylvania, and for many years Sandusky was its public face and primary fund-raiser.
(voice-over): Troy Craig met Sandusky through the Second Mile when he was a young boy.
CARROLL (on camera): With Sandusky's family?
CARROLL: Sandusky's family?
COOPER: That's Jason Carroll reporting.
Representative Kevin Boyle, appreciate your time. Thank you.
BOYLE: Thank you, Anderson.
Terror and destruction, coming up, caught on tape. We'll show you new video from the latest earthquake to hit eastern Turkey.
COOPER: Well, politics is ahead but first let's look at the stories making news tonight. Fredricka Whitfield joins us with a "360 News & Business Bulletin" -- Fredricka.
Hello, everyone.
A bloody day in Syria. More than three dozen people including six children were reported killed by Syrian security forces. We can't independently confirm the report or this video, because we're not allowed in o Syria to see for ourselves.
President Bashar al-Assad has promised to stop the violence and release detainees, but human rights groups say more than 100 Syrians have been killed since he made that vow.
And dramatic pictures from Turkey. A hotel crumbles during yesterday's 5.72 magnitude earthquake. The Bayram Hotel in Van was destroyed in the quake. Twelve people are confirmed dead and more than two dozen have been rescued.
And a new Greek leader is set to be sworn in tomorrow. Former Prime Minister George Papandreou has stepped down, clearing the way for a new unity government led by Harvard economics professor and former banker Lucas Papademos. He has pledged to implement harsh austerity measure s necessary for the country to receive a second bailout from the European Union.
And Britain's Prince William is getting ready to ship out. William Wales, as he is known in the military, will be deployed in February to the Falkland Islands as a search-and-rescue pilot. The prince is expected to be home in time to help prepare for his grandmother's Diamond Jubilee in June.
But at least the good news, Anderson, is he gets to spend Christmas with his new wife with at home.
COOPER: That's cool. That's good he's serving overseas. Fredricka, thanks.
Coming up, a Major League baseball player is missing. This is really fascinating, the story. We'll tell you about the catcher who was reportedly kidnapped at gunpoint when he went home to Venezuela.
And the debate over last night's GOP debate and Rick Perry's "Raw Politics" gaffe.
GOV. RICK PERRY (R), FLORIDA: I would do away with the Education, the Commerce. And let's see -- I can't. The third one I can't. So, oops.
COOPER: "Raw Politics" now. Another day, another Republican presidential debate. Last night's may be more memorable than some of the other, but did any step in and stop Mitt Romney? Chief national correspondent John King joins me from Washington -- John.
JOHN KING, CNN CHIEF NATIONAL CORRESPONDENT: Anderson, I think it is safe to say it was not Rick Perry who stepped in. We'll have more on the details in a moment. Let's look at the dynamic in the Republican race. If you come back in time here, here's what we have right now. We've had since the very beginning, who will emerge as the conservative challenger to Mitt Romney.
Remember, at one point it was Donald Trump. Then he didn't run. Then Michele Bachmann had a little boom. Then Rick Perry actually went to the top of the polls for awhile, at 30 percent, and then he fell off the table.
Herman Cain emerged next and still is, despite these allegation against him -- still is the candidate to beat if you're Mitt Romney and you're looking to say who is your conservative challenger?
We're 54 days away from Iowa. Here's the polling. McCain-Romney in a dead heat. Ron Paul, Michele Bachmann, Newt Gingrich, Rick Perry. Rick Perry way down here. A lot of ground to make up.
Remember Newt Gingrich, though. He's beginning to move up. But again, this is a Cain/Romney race. Cain the conservative alternative to Romney at the moment.
Then comes New Hampshire 61 days away from today. Romney, a runaway leader. Remember, he's the former Massachusetts governor, but again, who's in second place is Herman Cain. Newt Gingrich as 5 percent, and Rick Perry doesn't even make the DREAM Act top five.
KING: Open last night's debate was supposed to be part of his rebound strategy. South Carolina. On 72 days away to the key primary there. Again it's Romney, Cain, Gingrich. Perry slight in play here, but Romney and Cain, again the dynamic. Romney, the establishment front runner. Cain, the conservative challenger.
After South Carolina, Anderson, comes the state of Florida, 82 days away. This is starting to sound familiar. Right? Cain leads in a new poll out today. Romney just behind him. Newt Gingrich -- this is very significant -- up to 17 percent in Florida. Rick Perry in single digits down at 5.
So Rick Perry got into this race and everyone assumed he would be the conservative alternative to Mitt Romney. At the moment it is Herman Cain. You talk to a lot of Republicans, they assume at some point -- they may be wrong -- but they assume Herman Cain will start to slip.
Gingrich, they say at the moment, is best positioned to take on Romney. But we still have that giant question mark, Anderson. The whole race we've been waiting to see who would be the consistent conservative alternative to Romney. It is tonight Herman Cain. We'll see what happens going forward.
COOPER: John, thanks very much. Appreciate it.
Let's go now to Raw Politics, starting with that one moment that Rick Perry would probably like to forget. In case you missed it, he made a point of saying he would eliminate three government agencies if elected. When he went to actually list them, take a look.
GOV. RICK PERRY (R), PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE: It's three agencies of government when I get there that are gone. Commerce, Education and the -- what's the third one there? Let's see.
PERRY: Oh, five. Commerce, education and the...
PERRY: The EPA. There you go.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Seriously? Is EPA one you were talking about?
PERRY: No, sir. No, sir. We were talking about the agencies of government. The EPA needs to be rebuilt. No doubt about it.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: But you can't name the third one?
PERRY: The third agency of government, I would do away with Education, the...
PERRY: Commerce and let's see -- I can't. The third one I can't. Sorry. Oops.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: What about the...
COOPER: He spent most of today on sort of a damage control tour. But after a series of gaffes, can he be still considered a serious contender? He does have a lot of money. Let's bring in our political panel. John King, also CNN political correspondent Candy Crowley and CNN political analyst David Gergen.
And Candy, Rick Perry, I mean, you have to feel for the guy in that moment. Everybody's had brain freeze. Just not necessarily on public television like that. Is it devastating, though, for his campaign?
CANDY CROWLEY, CNN ANCHOR: It's certainly not helpful. Is it devastating?
Listen, Rick Perry was not doing well before this. This was the debate where he was going to that show us, that when he could debate that he was up there and up on his stuff. So it doesn't help. You're right. Anyone can have a brain freeze, but the fact of the matter is this was the wrong person and the wrong time to have this sort of slip up. So certainly, it can't help but damage at this point Perry's chances, which were looking pretty grim to begin with and even before this.
You know, people play into a story line. With Mitt Romney it's that he's a flip flopper. With Herman Cain it's that he's not really a serious candidate. And then a lot of times Rick Perry, and what is the rap on him? Well, he's really not up to the job. And then he forgets not just one of the three, but the main, the Energy Department. The main thing he's been talking about, and he forgets that. Understandable, but at this point just with -- I mean, the people forget things but at this point it was just really bad timing and the wrong person to make this kind of mistake, because it feeds into his -- into his Achilles heel.
COOPER: David, he has been doing aggressive damage control all day. He's actually going to be going on David Letterman later tonight, giving his top ten excuses for last night's performance. We've got a little snippet of it. I just want to show that.
PERRY: I thought the debate was tonight.
LETTERMAN: I see. Well, there you go. That happens to everybody. It was a mix up, ladies and gentlemen.
Number six.
PERRY: Hey, listen, you try concentrating when Mitt Romney is smiling at you. That is one handsome dude.
COOPER: I mean, can this strategy work? I mean, nobody is really questioning his charm here.
DAVID GERGEN, CNN POLITICAL ANALYST: Well, Anderson, I think -- I think he's doing the best thing he can do and that is treat it with humor and be a good sport about it. And some people are going to find that fetching about him. And they're going to respond to it in a very warm, human way.
But I think Candy's analysis was absolutely spot on. And the chances of him recovering fully, I think, are slim in the time frame he's got left. But I give him credit for going out and doing what he's doing.
The news to me is "Steady Eddie" Mitt Romney is moving right along. And people keep bouncing up, and they keep rising in the polls, but they fall back. And I think you can see slippage not among Republican voters but around the country. The Quinnipiac poll today in key states -- Pennsylvania, Ohio -- Mitt Romney is dead heat with President Obama. President Obama beats Herman Cain by ten points. Beats him easily.
COOPER: John King, what about Herman Cain? I mean, you know, to David's point, people have been rising up, you know, in comparison to Mitt Romney, and then they -- they bounce back down. Herman Cain, though, has been staying pretty steady, despite this, these allegations that have been swirling around him.
KING: And at least so far he has turned it into a fund-raising advantage. We will see if he can turn them into an organizing advantage.
The key test for Mr. Cain is 54 nights from tonight in Iowa. That the place where he needs to prove that he's a serious candidate. You prove that by winning. He has raised a lot of money off this, but if you look at the polling data underneath, his unfavorable ratings are going up and going up at a quite consistent pace over the course of the last few days.
Republican women are starting to peel off his candidacy. It tends to be more women than men that vote in the Iowa caucuses. There are still a lot of Republicans who say he didn't answer the allegations in detail, and he needs to be less testy when he's answering them.
But I'll tell you this, Anderson. There also are a lot of Republicans who say, "You know what? We have a playbook for what you're supposed to do in a situation like this. He does the exact opposite just about every time." And seems, for now at least, to be getting away with it, because people find him likable. And you know what they say about him? He's not a typical politician, and that is the mood of the country right now.
COOPER: John King, Candy Crowley, David Gergen, thank you.
Still ahead tonight, gunmen kidnap a Major League baseball player in front of his family. Have you heard this story? It's extraordinary. We have new details about the bizarre and frightening events that happened.
Also ahead, Michael Jackson's last words, Conrad Murray saying the pop star made a desperate plea for, quote, "the only thing that would put him to sleep." We're talking about Propofol. We'll be right back.
COOPER: Very strange mystery is unfolding involving a Major League baseball player who's vanished in Venezuela.
Washington Nationals rookie captain, Wilson Ramos, was reportedly taken at gunpoint from his family's home. He was in Venezuela playing winter league ball with a local team, the Tigers. A spokeswoman for the team reported the alleged kidnapping on Twitter. It's not unheard of for a successful athlete to return home to Venezuela and find himself in harm's way.
Joining me now to talk about the case is CNN international anchor Luis Carlos Velez. What's the latest on this? What do we know?
According to preliminary reports, four heavily-armed man stormed the home of his Wilson Ramos' parents in Valencia (ph), Venezuela, where Ramos was staying. Neighbors tell local media that the gunmen staked out the home several times before breaking in.
Witnesses say the gunmen threatened to kill the player if he refused to go with them. We have been trying to talk to the family directly, but they prefer not to talk to us. But it is said they believe they found the car that was used in the kidnapping. Also, they have assembled two sketches of two of the alleged kidnappers -- Anderson.
VELEZ-MITCHELL: So is the United States involved in any way in trying to figure out what -- what's happened to Ramos?
VELEZ: You know, nothing. They can not do nothing, because basically they can't. The FBI offered help, and it hasn't heard back from Hugo Chavez's government. It has its hands tied, because as you know, Anderson, he is not a U.S. citizen, and the crime did not occur here in the United States.
COOPER: Kidnapping has been increasing in Venezuela over the last few years.
VELEZ: That's right. Kidnapping is becoming a common practice in the country. It is a very unstable country.
The U.S. State Department has warned the increasing cases of kidnappings in Venezuela.
In 2009, for example, the number of reported kidnappings doubled from the previous year, and police have said that many cases don't get reported there. Now, this is the first time that a professional baseball player has been kidnapped in Venezuela, but their families are becoming targets. Criminals tend to go after them as they become better known and presumably wealthier -- Anderson.
COOPER: Wow. Talk about disturbing. We'll continue to follow it. Appreciate it. Thanks very much.
Coming up, we're following a number of other stories. We'll check in with Fredricka Whitfield with a "360 Bulletin" -- Fredricka.
WHITFIELD: Anderson, Penn state has just announced that Mike McQueary will not be in attendance for this Saturday's home game against Nebraska. McQueary is the former graduate assistant who saw Jerry Sandusky allegedly raping a boy but did not call police. Because of threats against McQueary, the university has decided it would be in everyone's best interest for him not to be at the game. A military panel has convicted Army Staff Sergeant Calvin Gibbs of murdering three civilians in Afghanistan. He has been sentenced to life in military prison with eligibility for parole in ten years. Gibbs is the highest-ranking soldier in a group of five accused of murdering Afghan villagers and then planting weapons on them to make it look like the soldiers were attacked.
Dr. Conrad Murray says he didn't know that Michael Jackson had an addiction problem. In an interview that aired on "The Today Show," Murray also talked about Jackson's last words and how Jackson referred to the anesthetic Propofol as "milk."
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Do you remember his final words before he died?
CONRAD MURRAY, FORMER JACKSON DOCTOR: It was probably. I don't know. It was probably when he was pleading and begging me to please, please let him have some milk because that was the only thing that would work.
WHITFIELD: Ashton Kutcher say he feels awful and is going to take a break from Twitter after he tweeted about Joe Paterno without knowing the full story. Kutcher tweeted, quote, "How do you fire Joepa? Insult. No class. As a Hawkeyes fan I find it in poor taste."
And Billy Crystal will host the Oscars this year. His was -- it was made aware to everyone, it was announced that he would become the new host today after Eddie Murphy quit yesterday. This will be Crystal's ninth time hosting.
Now back to Anderson.
COOPER: Coming up, it's almost time for one of the biggest fashion shows of the year. One of the Victoria's Secret angels is now talking about how she's getting ready. Here's a hint: it will make you thirsty and hungry just hearing about it. "The RidicuList" is next.
COOPER: Time for "The RidicuList." We are adding to the Victoria's Secret diet. Sorry, it's that time of the year again. The annual Victoria's Secret fashion show taped last night. It's going to air in a few weeks on CBS.
But don't make the mistake of thinking the show is nothing women walking around in their underwear. Oh, no. There's a lot of preparation and work that goes into it.
The models have to do a whole lot more than show up and strip down. Take for instance Adrianna Lima (ph). She told the "Telegraph," all about what it really takes to be a Victoria's Secret angel.
Lima (ph) says she worked out every day with a personal trainer for the past few months. And for the past few weeks, she worked out twice a day jumping rope, boxing, lifting weights.
And then there's the diet. Do not try this at home. Lima (ph) says she gets on a regimen of protein shakes, vitamins and a gallon of water a day. For nine days leading up to the show she doesn't eat any solid foods. She only drinks shakes containing powdered egg. Mmm, egg.
Two days before the show she stops drinking the gallon of water and then 12 hours before, she stops drinking any water at all. She says, and I quote, "No liquids at all, so you dry out. Sometimes you can lose up to eight pounds just from that." That is one determined, dedicated, dehydrated model.
So there you have it. I guess just swear off the solid food and water and you'll look great, you know, if you don't drop over dead. It reportedly costs $10 million to produce the fashion show. It airs in more than 90 countries. Nine million people watched it in America last year alone.
This year's show features performances by Kanye West, Nicki Minaj, Adam Levine, as well as the diamond-bedazzled bra that's worth $2.5 million. So mark your calendars. The show airs November 29. And if you really want to get in the spirit of things, I guess stop eating solid food nine days before on November 20. And yes, unfortunately, Thanksgiving does fall right in that time period. Sorry, kids. We're having powdered egg shakes this year.
OK, it's an extreme diet, to be sure. But in the interest of getting both sides of the story, there are other Victoria's Secret models who say they actually do ingest food.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: What is the must-have snack while you're in hair and makeup?
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Oh, gosh. I am -- I know I'm the queen of snacks. I'm, like, always eating cookies. And like, we had a really good chef this year at the Victoria's Secret fashion show, and they had, like, shrimp and rice and salad. And like, they just had, like -- you can have whatever you want right before you go on the show.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: The models do eat? That's one thing...
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: I mean, you need energy to do the show. It's a long day, so -- and carrying heavy wings and everything.
COOPER: Those wings are heavy. Victoria's Secret chef? Now I've heard it all. It's like I always say: Every time a dinner bell rings, an angel gets its wings on "The RidicuList."

The DMCA safe harbor has a condition that the service provider "has adopted and reasonably implemented, and informs subscribers and account holders of the service provider’s system or network of, a policy that provides for the termination in appropriate circumstances of subscribers and account holders of the service provider’s system or network who are repeat infringers."
The thing is, it says "repeat infringers" not "repeatedly accused infringers." So I'm not a lawyer (and I would be interested in hearing the thoughts of anyone who is), but it seems like if you adopted a policy that says you'll terminate any user who is found liable of infringement in court on more than one occasion, that would seem to satisfy the statute. Which makes perfect sense really -- otherwise anyone could get anyone else's account terminated by making repeated fraudulent accusations. Can anyone think of a reason why that would be wrong?

I can see that some things should be renewable. I loathe Disney for advocating all these crazy laws that we have today. But - they do have something of a point with renewable copyrights. Mickey Mouse would have gone out of copyright well before I graduated high school. Probably before I graduated elementary school - he's been around that long. But, Mickey Mouse has been a money generator all these decades.
Let them have renewable copyrights. First renewal, hundreds of thousands of dollars. Second renewal, millions of dollars. Third renewal, tens of millions. Fourth renewal, hundreds of millions. Just keep upping the ante by an order of magnitude. If they want to pay, the government benefits. If they don't want to pay, the people benefit. At some stage, even Mickey Mouse will be retired. I don't think they would renew even Mickey for a billion dollars!

Asimov's Foundation was written in 1945, the last of the trilogy in 1952 (the year I was born). It was published by Gnome Press, a tiny publisher without the clout to properly market it, and it languished until the '60s with Asimov not earning a dime from it until Doubleday bought the publication rights from Gnome. It was a Hugo award winner and a big moneymaker after Doubldeday bought it.
That's why.
As to your "ten years", iirc I started on my Paxil Diaries book almost ten years ago. I still need to design its dust jacket. BTW It's on TPB, I put it there myself.
Seventeen years may seem like a lifetime to someone in college, but it really isn't that long a time at all. You'll find that out if you live long enough. I wouldn't want copyright, even after a renewal, to last any longer than 30 years, though.

So let me get this straight, the judge sees that the DCMA doesn't fix this grievance, so he decides to add a fundamentally new requirement to the law and enforce it?
The judge is right to point out the DCMA doesn't address the (perhaps legitimate) grievances brought to the court. That's exactly why the website should have won the case with no strings attached--from the sound of it, they comply with the requirements of the law. A judge has no more authority to 'fix' bad legislation than I do.
The prosecuting party should be trying to push congress to action, not judges. I hope the SCOTUS picks it up and throws the case out to make the point.

While I agree with your first sentence, copyright infringers being dragged into court and asked to cough up xxxxx thousand dollars per infringment IS a government problem, because such high fines are, technically speaking, a "human rights violation". Believe it or not, receiving a disproportionately tough/hard/long sentence over only a "small infringement" is a human rights violation. And human rights law is, since 1974, "Internation Law". So if the government doesn't protect you from getting a f____ed up, expensive, hard-core sentence for downloading a film or two, then that government has failed to honour its responsibilities vis-a-vis International Law.

Primary infringement: Joe Schmuck buys a DVD and procedes to rip it down to his computer. It's a 'violation' of the DCMA because the video is 'encrypted' and needs something like libdvd2 to decrypt the 'key'. And there's the standard 'FBI Warning' notice on the DVD when you play it. Thus, *AA argues the content is 'licensed' not sold.
Secondary infringement: The company who sold Joe Schmuck his hard drive. Without that hard drive, Joe Schmuck wouldn't have anything to store his 'infringing' copy upon. Thus, argues the *AA, said company 'facilitated' the 'infringement'. Doesn't matter that they do not have physical access to the drive anymore, they 'facilitated'.
Tertiary infringement: The company who manufactured the hard drive. By manufacturing the hard drive, they have created a 'criminal tool', defined as any non-living object essential to and used in 'the commission of a crime'. By wholesaling the hard drive to the company who sold it to Joe Schmuck, they are now the 'tertiary infringers', even though they lost physical control of the drive.
We can take this tree of 'infringement' back at least 2 or 3 more generations, to the people who mined and refined the materials to build the hard drive, as well as the designers. How much stupidity are we looking for here?

Parisian Corpses from 1220-1789
Paris in the 13th Century transformed itself from feudal estates to those the church and state, with the land and power divided equally. Phillipe Augustus (1180-1223) begins public works such as the Cimtiere des Saints Innocents and the masonry fortification around Paris to relieve congestion.
The wealthy dead were buried in cemeteries in and around churches, so they would have better luck in the afterlife. The rest, a wide social group, were relegated to mass graves. The largest was the Cimetiere des Saints Innocents, which later was emptied into the Parisian catacombs due to the stench of the rotting corpses. Strangely enough, Saints Innocents was a popular spot for lovers, merchants and preachers. Phillipe Auguste established the royal gallows of Montfaucon north of Paris, serving not only as the gallows but also the town dump. Thousands of people were hung there; those that died while being tortured were left hanging to rot until their bones fell. Their remains would then be dumped into a pit along with the household waste, excrements and rubble. Like the Christian denial of burial to criminals, the smell that emanated down to Paris served as a subtle deterrent to crime. This practice also continued well into the 18th Century. Parent-Duchatelet, the early 19th century hygienist, refers to Montfaucon as the "Epicenter of Stench."
Although the execution of criminals no longer occured at Montfaucon in the 18th century, bodies still were dumped there along with the garbage, including the bodies of the people beheaded during the French Revolution. After the revolution, the christian denial of burial to criminals ceased; however, the ties of Montfaucon with unimaginable horrors remained.

3 This is .
4 You must absolutely visit the .
5 I need to buy a new .

Possessive ‘s
We normally use ‘s with people or animals, although we can also use it with time expressions, shops, or places (cities, countries, etc.) and organisations.
Possessive 's – Use
Note that when we are talking about places or organisations, we can use both the possessive ‘s or of.
• The decision of the country/The country’s decision to raise taxes is very controversial.
• The prediction of the bank/The bank’s prediction is very optimistic.
Look at the table below to see how to use the possessive case.
Possessive case – form
Note that we use of + possessive case or possessive pronoun if there is a determiner (a, some, this, etc.) before the nouns.
• Some friends of Anna’s came to the party. (=some of Anna’s friends.)
• Some friends of hers came to the party.
• Isn’t that a friend of your sister’s(=one of your sister’s friends.)
Using possessive of
Inanimate things and abstract nouns
We normally use of instead of ‘s when we are talking about inanimate things, parts of things, or abstract nouns.
• We enjoyed the beauty of the park.
• The head of the shower is broken.
• Go to the end of the street.
• Love is the secret of life.
Long noun phrases
We also use of instead of ‘s with long noun phrases.
• This is the child of the neighbours who live next door. (NOT the neighbours who live next door’s child)
• That’s the wife of one of my friends from Liverpool
Compound nouns
In many cases we use noun + noun, instead of possessive ‘s or of. When we use noun + noun, the first noun is acting as a modifier of the second noun, like an adjective, and is normally singular (tourist destination, stomach bug, school bus, etc.). Sometimes more than one form is possible:
• The head of the shower/shower head is broken.
• What’s the school policy/school’s policy on bullying?
However, we often prefer one form over the other because it’s more common: bus stop, car key, toothpaste, car park, ice cream, haircut, etc.
One word, two separate words or two words linked with a hyphen?
Compound nouns are often two separate words, e.g. school bus, car park, etc., but very common compound nouns are sometimes used as one word, e.g. bathroom, haircut, etc., and sometimes linked with a hyphen, e.g. letter-box. But in many occasions, you can see the same compound noun written in different ways.
We can use a compound noun to refer to a container, which is usually empty: a tea cup, a wine glass, a beer glass, a matchbox, etc.
• Can you pass me those tea cups? I’m going to wash them. (=they are empty)
• She keeps the insects that she catches in that matchbox
But note that we use noun + of + noun to refer to a container together with its contents: a cup of tea, a glass of wine, a glass of beer, a box of matches, etc.
• Would you like a cup of tea? (=a cup with tea in it)
• I need to light this candle. Do you have a box of matches?

} | 734 | Twitter CFO Anthony Noto.
When reports emerged earlier this month that Twitter's CFO Anthony Noto may also now be in charge of the marketing department, it was met with a bemused reaction.
The finance guy? In charge of marketing?
The relationship between marketing and finance is one of the most strained within a company. The marketing department usually wants more budget, while the finance department is generally reluctant to give it over. The CFO wants proof that the money they delegated to marketing last quarter is actually delivering a return for the business, but marketing can take time to have an effect on sales, which leaves marketers fumbling around for other, softer metrics, like awareness, affinity, recall, and social media engagement, to prove the worth of their ads. The CFO doesn't always buy that.
Speaking at the JP Morgan Global Technology, Media, and Telecom conference in New York on Wednesday (Seeking Alpha has published a transcript,) Noto confirmed that he is indeed in charge of the marketing department now.
Noto explained that the board wanted to "elevate the importance of marketing as a key component of everything we do," adding: "Marketing really needs to permeate product, it needs to permeate content, and it needs to permeate media, and it's a really huge opportunity in front of us."
Twitter already had a marketing team, building out the foundations, but Noto's explanation about his expanded role seems to suggest that Twitter wanted to emphasize that it was starting to take marketing seriously — but perhaps with caution as far as budget is concerned.
Noto explained why its fundamental Twitter starts increasing its focus on marketing: Nearly everybody knows what Twitter is, but barely anyone knows how to use it. This is an existential problem for Twitter: its monthly active user base is slowing, and investors are concerned.
BI Intelligence
Noto said: "We [have] over 90% aided brand awareness globally ... TwitBird is everywhere. People are very familiar with it, but they're familiar with it in the way others have presented it. The second issue about the great awareness we have is that it hasn't actually translated into users. We've less than 30% penetration of the social, digital mobile market. In fact, if you just take our monthly active users on a quarterly basis and divide it by the largest player in the group, you'll see that it's 30%."
Twitter has tried to combat this problem by changing the user experience: Creating "instant timelines" last year so that new users can get up and running straight away, for example.
A big Twitter marketing campaign is on the way
But now, at this stage in the company's maturity, Twitter feels it needs a marketing campaign to educate users as to what the service is all about and why people would want to use it.
Noto said Twitter is in the "very early days in our thinking" about whether it will invest on a broadcast ad campaign, and on deciding which types of consumer and geographies it will target.
And, in typical CFO style, Noto said "we will invest appropriately based on the returns and the value we think it can drive over time and we'll do it in a prudent way like we've done everything else."
So we don't know what form it will take yet, but here's the plan, according to Noto:
I think we've a significant opportunity to educate the 75% of people that don't use Twitter that should use Twitter on the value proposition it provides, and consumption-first experience is the way to do that, marketing is the way to do that, [and the] consumption first experience being logged out. So there's not a tax that someone has to pay, or an investment someone needs to make to use Twitter. And converting that mindset from people thinking they have to tweet or they have to contribute to use Twitter, to people thinking it's frictionless, it's easy, the real value proposition is the best real-time content in the world.
Twitter has actually aired a TV campaign before. Back in 2012 it aired seven 15-second spots during the Pocono 400 NASCAR race, highlighting activity around the race track, such as a driver taking a photo inside his race car and a helmet cam capturing a tire change in the pit lane. The idea was to promote its then-new hashtag pages, which curate all the tweets, photos, and videos around a certain subject.

} | 498 | Sweden is pretty calm and affluent these days, not that you’d know it from the gritty crime fiction it continues to export over ten years after Stieg Larsson’s Millennium trilogy created a global bloodthirst for Scandinavian noir.
Niklas Natt och Dag is the latest Swedish author poised to become an international bestseller. His debut, "The Wolf and the Watchman" (Atria, 384 pp., ★★★ out of four stars) has already sold over 250,000 copies in Sweden and is set for publication in over 30 countries.
But Natt och Dag – a member of Sweden’s oldest surviving noble family, whose surname translates to “Night and Day” – doesn’t depend on the peaceful present for his material. He mines the richer ore of historical Sweden, taking us back to a time when beautiful Stockholm was poor and nasty.
Published in Swedish under the title "1793," "The Wolf and the Watchman" takes place during that year in Stockholm. It was a time of desperation, violence and political turmoil when the government was corrupt and unstable, and those in power were wary of the common people, made nervous by tidings of guillotines in France. Natt och Dag sets the scene vividly, conveying the weight of the atmosphere and mapping the historical city with convincing attention to detail. The novel reads like a season of "True Detective," brutal and haunting and sometimes exceedingly gruesome, anchored by a powerful sense of place and a memorable cast of characters.
Mickel Cardell is a night watchman haunted by war trauma and a phantom limb: “He feels the arm that is no longer his solidify out of the surrounding darkness until every part of his being tells him it is back where it once was, and with it a pain searing enough to cancel the world itself out, as a jaw with teeth of iron gnaws flesh, bone, and gristle.” One morning, two children rouse him from a drunken slumber at a bar and lead him to a corpse floating in the Larder, a boggy lake fouled with all manner of waste. The body is horribly mutilated, missing its tongue, eyes and limbs.
With Stockholm’s police force occupied with corruption and politics, the beleaguered chief enlists Cecil Winge, an ingenious lawyer and investigator, to find justice for the unidentified victim. Winge is dying of consumption. “[He] steers towards death by the same compass that has shown his way his entire life: reason. He tells himself that all men will die and that all are dying.” He teams up with Cardell in the hopes of finding the depraved killer before his own death puts an end to his investigation.
Their paths cross with a youth from the countryside, who finds horror in Stockholm where he meant to find fortune, as well as with a girl sentenced to the workhouse, a prison for women run by merciless men. Every character suffers, some of them unimaginably.
"The Wolf and the Watchman" is a bleak, miserable, compelling novel. You’ll only want to read it once, but you won’t soon forget it.

How to Build Martell (Control)
As a Martell player, I thought I would break down what I see as two of the most competitive archetypes (as of spring 2011; pre-Maesters of the Citadel). These are both control-oriented builds, which play on Martell’s strengths. Other non-control builds, such as the “Red Viper deck” and House Dayne, can be competitive, but I personally feel they are less consistent overall and therefore less effective against the broad array of deck types that one sees at most tournaments.
Two General Deck Types
Martell boasts arguably the most powerful events in the current environment. But like any event, Martell’s won’t win challenges on their own – at some point there is a limit to how many can fit into a deck. So the first two questions I ask when constructing a new Martell deck list are: (1) what is the maximum number of events I can play with, and (2) how fast do I want my deck to play in rounds 1 and 2?
These are competing goals that guide how I will structure my deck list. The advantage of an event-heavy deck is that I have more access to a variety of immediate, powerful control effects. The disadvantage is that my setup is slow, and I will continue to draw disproportionately more events when I need to draw characters and resources. The slow setup can be especially painful when playing against Baratheon-rush or Greyjoy resource-choke builds. Bottom line: If I expect most of my opponents to run fast decks or resource choke, then a faster Martell build with fewer events (and more characters/locations) provides more opportunity to establish sufficient board presence. If I expect to see more Lannister or Martell players, which tend to take longer to win, I prefer a heavy control build that is stronger against the traditional “control houses.”
Events that I typically choose from:
Burning on the Sand (RotO)
Red Vengeance (PotS)
A Game of Cyvasse (ACoS)
Narrow Escape (KotStorm)
Parting Blow (PotS)
Condemned by the Council (AToT)
He Calls It Thinking (PotS)
Distraction (Core)
Some of these (Narrow Escape, Parting Blow, and Distraction) are less obvious choices but are useful because of their efficiency and synergy with Martell’s control effects. Martell has other very powerful events that trigger as responses (especially to losing challenges), such as The Viper's Rage (TftRK) and Blood for Blood (PotS). I have found though that Martell control runs most efficiently when I am able to use the control at the precise moment it is needed, rather than waiting to respond to actions initiated by the opponent. Red Vengeance and Burning are technically “responses,” but unlike the Viper’s Rage or Blood for Blood, they control the challenge itself rather than the characters leftover after the challenge. Moreover, the mere threat of these cards acts as a powerful deterrent against initiating challenges. Note: It is important to run BOTH Burning in the Sand and Red Vengeance. Together, these cards shut down consecutive challenge phases, and running 5-6 events that fill the same role makes it much more likely to have one in hand when an opponent plays a claim-2 plot.
Matching Deck Type to Agenda
The Knights of the Hollow Hill (MotM) agenda (KotHH) can offset the disadvantages of an event-heavy deck. Although I sacrifice the setup phase (the ultimate “slow start”), I also forego the need to include many resource cards. This frees up deck space so that I can effectively swap resource slots for powerful control effects. My draws are more efficient, since I draw fewer dead cards each round, and the deck runs smoother. The longer the game goes, the more efficient the KotHH build becomes.
When I run KotHH, I tend to run 17-21 events and attachments.
Though agendas are probably unnecessary for non-event-heavy deck lists, I still find them useful. Summer (seasons) offers spectacular synergy with Martell’s other effects. The seasonal effect powers saves for Maester of the Sun (ASoS) and activates Open Market (ASoS) (if I choose to run it). The minor gold boost from the Black Raven (ASoS) also allows me to take better advantage of the large hand size Martell players tend to have. The Kings of Summer (ASoS) is thus a natural addition, and helps to bolster Martell’s card advantage. Because Martell has much in-house draw, the potential downside of the summer agenda is also considerably lower than if running it out of another house. If I expect to compete against a high number of winter-themed decks, I may (occasionally) exclude the agenda.
In a non-KotHH deck list, I run 12-13 events and attachments. In a Kings of Summer deck list, that would mean 2-3 Black Ravens, 3 Venomous Blades, and 6-8 events.
Notes about Martell’s “Draw” Options
Martell has so many draw options that it really comes down to personal preference. But I think there are a couple cards that some players overlook that are worth highlighting. First, The Viper's Bannermen (PotS) is the single best card in AGOT to gain card advantage. It promises a net 3 cards (4 drawn, 1 played) that do not count against the draw cap, and paired with Narrow Escape, the net number of cards jumps to 7 (an additional 4). If I cannot fit Narrow Escape into my deck, then the 7-gold cost of the bannermen may not justify the cost of running three copies, but it is still usually worth playing at least one copy. If I run Narrow Escape, I run three copies of the bannermen. (If my opponent runs Narrow Escape, I will have excellent card advantage.) Second, even with Martell’s impressive card advantage, Val (RotO) can help smooth out uncharacteristically bad draws and is therefore worth playing as a contingency.
A Final Note about Playing Martell Control
When playing the above decks, it is extremely important to maintain card advantage. That means intrigue challenges are often more important than military. If I know I cannot win both intrigue and military challenges, I frequently try to ensure I win the intrigue challenge. Narrow Escape can be played to bring back lost characters, and Valar can level the playing field, but there is no easy way to come back if I have 0 cards in hand and my opponent has 5.
I also like running The Prince's Wrath (PotS) in a Knights of the Hollow Hill (MotM) deck since that influence is always there and it's just like an Orphan of the Greenblood (PotS) that can control powerful characters.
Another nice article, but I would have liked to see some more character discussion.
Good point Saturnine. The original draft of this article included two deck lists, one for each build. Since I removed those, you're right that the character component is lacking.
As a general note, run very low-gold cost characters (3x Orphan, 3x Refugee, 3x Lost Spearmen, etc.), draw (1-2x Val, or 1x Val/1x Samwell in Summer; Dornish Paramours; House Messengers; and Bannermen), and some utility characters like Ellaria, Arys, Maesters of the Sun, etc. The idea is to keep your gold costs as low as possible, so that you have a very fast setup and/or first 2 rounds (making you more resilient to Blockade). The low-gold curve also helps A LOT when using Val or in rounds where you want to play The Viper's Bannermen and other cards.

So things change a bit with the introduction of the "Restricted List" in FFG's last FAQ. Since you can't play Val, Narrow Escape, and Venomous Blade all in the same deck, things get a bit tricky.
My personal feeling is that whereas the Knights of the Hollow Hill version used to be the stronger build (compared with the Summer Agenda), it is now a bit weaker. In summer, you can pull Val entirely and simply run Samwell. Narrow Escape is also less of an issue, since you have saves with the Maester of Sun and constant draw with the agenda (less reliant on bringing back Viper's Bannermen with Narrow Escape). For the KotHH build, I would probably keep Narrow Escape and ditch Venomous Blade, depending on the specific list. This (and losing Val) definitely hurts, but recursion with Viper's Bannermen and some of the other characters is necessary to slow your opponent down. Given that Targ will likely be popular after its expansion is released (very soon), attachment discard and Targ "burn" kill should become more ubiquitous, meaning that Venomous Blades and small characters are much less resilient/efficient. | http://www.cardgamedb.com/index.php/index.html/_/game-of-thrones/game-of-thrones-strategy/how-to-build-martell-control-r31 | robots: classic

} | 325 | Lindsey Graham immigration reform NBC
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) is bullish about the chances of an immigration reform bill passing the Senate — and he says Republicans need to pass it to avoid falling further into a "demographic death spiral" that could hurt their chances in the next two big election cycles.
"If we don't pass immigration reform, if we don't get it off the table in a reasonable, practical way, it doesn't matter who you run in 2016," Graham said on NBC's "Meet the Press" Sunday.
Graham made his comments as the Senate is in the midst of debate over the bill co-sponsored by him and seven other bipartisan senators. The Senate voted to open debate on the bill by an overwhelming 82-15 margin last week.
Graham said he's "never been more optimistic" about the bill's chances in the chamber. In fact, he thinks it will pass with flying colors.
"I think we're going to have a political breakthrough, that Congress is going to pass immigration reform," Graham said. "I think we're going to get plus 70 votes. I've never been more optimistic about it."
One of the main sticking points left on the bill is some Republican senators' insistence that its current border security "trigger" provisions are beefed up before passage. That includes Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), one of the "Gang of Eight" members.
On ABC's "This Week," Rubio wouldn't commit to voting for his bill if the border security measures aren't improved.
"At the end of the day, the only way we're going to pass an immigration reform law out of the House and Senate so the president can sign it is, that it has real border security measures within it," Rubio said.

How I Think You Can Make America A Better Place.
Ways I think you can make America a better place.
Dear Future President,
As I watch the debates on TV I have learned there are many issues I must be educated on in order to feel like I would have made a good vote. I am not able to vote in this election, but I look forward to the next election being a first time voter.
I hope that you make our nation a better place. The following are ways that I feel you are able to accomplish that. First off, I feel that many families struggle financially to send their kids to college. As a President I would like to see you lower those prices for families or lower the guidelines for middle class to receive help. I do not look forward to the day I graduate college with thousands of dollars in debt. Second, I feel you should have tougher laws on illegal immigration. I don't have a lot of knowledge on the subject but I feel like we have a lot of illegal immigrants from different countries that live illegally in the US. I don't feel we need to build any walls, but to look at what we have in place and discuss how we can add to make it tougher to be here . Last, I feel like we need to bring social security and medicare to the table to see how we can make this better for those who continue to pay into it to be able to receive the benefits when they get of age. I see the age keeps increasing but I feel that makes it harder for those that really need the help. Maybe you can look at reducing healthcare costs to make it affordable for those who really need the care.
I feel there are many issues at hand a president needs to work on, but these are the three I feel most strongly affect me or my family the most.

} | 586 | Sixth Amendment – Right to Be Informed of Criminal Charges
1791Sixth Amendment Is Ratified
The Sixth Amendment is ratified as part of the Bill of Rights of the U.S. Constitution. The amendment guarantees the rights of the accused in criminal prosecutions.
1876Court Explains Purpose Of Right To Be Informed
In United States v. Cruikshank, the U.S. Supreme Court strikes down a 16-count indictment against people accused of violating the 1870 Civil Rights Act, a law designed to protect recently freed African Americans. The Court explains that the Sixth Amendment right to “be informed” has two purposes: (1) for the defendant to be able to defend himself or herself against specific charges and (2) for the court to know if there is enough evidence to convict the defendant. The Court says the charges in this case were not specific enough and, therefore, violated the Sixth Amendment. If not for this right, then anyone could be indicted on the basis of vague accusations.
1896Court Finds Limits On Right To Be Informed
In Rosen v. United States, the U.S. Supreme Court rules that a defendant’s Sixth Amendment right to “be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation” was not violated when the charge against him – sending obscene material through the mail – did not include a description of each image that was alleged to be obscene. The Court rules that it was not critical to helping with his defense at the lower court and also notes that he never raised the issue in his original trial. As long as he and the lower court were clear on the charges, then his rights were not violated.
1948Appeals Court Can Review Only Original Charges, Evidence
In Cole v. Arkansas, the U.S. Supreme Court reverses a state court that convicted four defendants for violating a particular provision of an Arkansas law, Section 2. When they appealed, the state appeals court decided the defendants deserved to be convicted under a different provision, Section 1, even though the defendants had never been charged with violating Section 1. The justices rule that this decision violated the defendants’ Sixth Amendment right to know all the charges against them so they can put on a complete defense.
1972Due Process Violated By Unclear State Law
In Rabe v. Washington, the U.S. Supreme Court rules that the due process clause of the 14th Amendment (which guarantees the right to a fair hearing that follows the rules) is violated when a state law fails to explain exactly what conduct is prohibited. In Rabe, the defendant was convicted under Washington’s obscenity law after he showed an X-rated movie at his drive-in theater. The trial court concluded that the movie was not technically “obscene.” However, the fact that the movie was shown at a drive-in – making it visible to viewers other than consenting adults – made it illegal. The justices reverse the conviction, finding that the state’s obscenity law makes no distinction between obscene material that is shown in private and material that is shown in public.
Although this case does not directly involve a defendant’s Sixth Amendment right to be informed of charges, it shows the importance of people having a right to know what conduct is considered criminal. | https://www.annenbergclassroom.org/resource/right-informed-criminal-charges/ | isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2020-10

} | 134 | [Openmcl-devel] indent3, and fonts
Joakim Sandgren joakim at joakimsandgren.com
Wed Apr 4 09:12:10 UTC 2012
So you can have indent and indent form bound to tab.
but not indent region.
it seems to me that indent region annulate indent form and indent.
but since indent region can be used as indent form it can replace indent form.
but the indent "one line" does not work...
why can you have 2 commands bound to tab but not three?
My indent aligning problem in a previous mail was due to my font use : trebuchet.
It is obviously only monospace fonts that give a correct indentation in clozure.
I wasn't aware of that since all types of fonts indent correctly in mcl...
How can this difference be?

I have an external hard drive on which I have backed up files several times. Some files were modified between backups, others were not. Some may have been renamed. Now I'm running out of space, and I'd like to clean up duplicate files.
My idea was to md5sum every file on the drive, then look for duplicates, and diff the relevant files (just in case, haha). Is this the best way to do this? What are some other methods of checking for duplicate files?

Do you want to write a program to do this, or use existing tools? – Michael Petrotta Mar 21 '10 at 18:56
I've already hacked this together at the command line using the strategy described, and it works. I was simply wondering if other strategies exist. – miorel Mar 21 '10 at 19:01

Computing an MD5 hash of each and every file (suggested in the question and the links from answers) seems to be a quite "expensive" way to solve the problem. Ignoring the actual computation of each hash, just reading each an every file completely incurs a lot of work on the (extremely slow) hard drive.
My suggestion for an "algorithm" would be something link this:
• Get the exact length of every file on the drive (or directory, or whatever). This should be relatively cheap, as the length is likely to be stored in the index part of the file system.
• For each unique file size with more than one file associated, compute the MD5 of each of these and compare the hash values to spot duplicates. While not very likely, two files with same length could hash to the same value. If you do not want to take the risk of false positives, compare files byte by byte instead or after the hash comparison.
• For every other unique file size, you do not have any duplicates.

I would check size, on dup file sizes, check first 512 bytes (one sector), and if same, then computer md5. But keep in mind md5 reads the entire file to compute, so why not just binary compare the entire file to be sure (after all, md5 is broken) – Cole Johnson Nov 16 '12 at 19:19
"two files with the same length": no, it's even more general: "two files": a possible md5-collision does not require same length of input (same is true for sha* etc). – akira Nov 16 '12 at 20:09

If md5 says it's the same file, you don't need the diff. People have solved this problem a good number of times so you can do what they did.
share|improve this answer
Uh, yes, you do need the diff in order to be certain that they're the same. MD5 only outputs 128 bits, so if your file is larger than that, it must necessarily be possible to find two files A and B which have the same MD5, but do not have the same contents. If two files have different MD5, then you know they're different, but the inverse is not the case - you have to compare each byte of the file if you want to be absolutely certain that they are different. – Michael Madsen Mar 21 '10 at 19:04
so if my file is larger than 128 bit I have to go through all 100 Megabytes, for example?? That doesn't sound right, as the whole point of hashing is that is hashing the entire file. While there are duplicates that occur when using the MD5 hash, the odds of one occurring between two user generated non malicious files are extremely low. SHA 256 or 512 is preferred now. – BigHomie Jun 30 at 16:00
@Michael With a good 128-bit hash, there are about 10^40 possible output values. If an overlap of two such values is the sort of risk that keeps you up at night...well, I'll just say it doesn't keep me up at night. ;) – Tomislav Nakic-Alfirevic Jul 1 at 8:49

} | 260 | About This Course
This course is about SOCIOLOGICAL THEORY. We distinguish this from activism, social commentary, policy recommendations, empirical research, ideology, and polemics, although all of these can, at times, be found under the heading "theory." We will also be self-consciously focused on the sociological mainstream or canon, not as an endorsement but because in the limited attention space available it makes sense to focus on building a foundation rather than trying to give everything its due. Additionally, there are several courses at Mills in which theorists we could, but won't talk about, are covered.1
This course is a broad survey of sociological theory. Although you will not be an expert in any one thinker’s ideas, you will be exposed to a variety of theories and the debates occurring between thinkers. The work for the course WILL include an opportunity to focus more on a set of related theories and thinkers.
Strictly speaking, this course is about sociological thought not "social theory." The latter is the broader category including all manner of writings from the philosophical and epistemological to the political and polemical; it may overlap in places with sociological theory, but it neither subsumes nor is subsumed by it. The course is also not, strictly speaking, intellectual history, though there will be some overlap there too.
The course is roughly divided into four sections:
1. Foundations: Pre-sociology and the Four Revolutions (American/French/Industrial/1848)
2. Classical Theory
3. The Twentieth Century
4. What's new and next? | http://mills-soc116.wikidot.com/soc116:about | isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2018-43

} | 656 | What is Interlibrary Loan?
What is Interlibrary Loan? That’s a question that I’m sure many of you are wondering. In essence, interlibrary loan is a sharing of materials between libraries. That’s it. No big secret there, is there? Libraries lend and borrow materials or supply copies, from each other to help serve our patrons (that would be you). All types of libraries participate in this activity and have been for a long time. Why would libraries do this though?
Libraries participate in ILL because, they can not reasonably purchase every material that is published or produced, nor would they want to–both for money and space constraints. Take a look at Amazon, go on take a look. Millions of books, cd’s, dvd’s, magazines, etc. All items that you might find in a library, but does your library have them all? Think about how much it would cost to keep up with all of these materials. Every day spending thousands of dollars to buy new material that is released, and this isn’t counting things like government documents, foreign or small press. Think about the space you would need to store all of these things. You’d need a warehouse the size of New York City to store every book, every CD, every DVD, and every journal ever published. And it would just continue to grow each day.
Let’s look at from another angle. Take a look at a local college. What are they well know for? Education, science, art? Take a look around at what they own. If their known for art, what’s their science collection like? Why would a college that is know for its art program, purchase large number of materials on the study and the evolution of the parrots of the world? They wouldn’t is the simple answer. It doesn’t mean that their users won’t need the material, its just that it is not conducive for the library to invest money into purchasing them when the majority of their users will want art books. Now they might not have every art book ever published (remember money and space), but they’ll have more books on art, than on parrots.
This is where Interlibrary Loan comes into play. It allows you, the patron, to be able to borrow materials that your library does not own. So if you go to the art college, but need a book on parrots of the world, ILL makes it possible for you to be able to use the material, generally at no or small cost to you. The library provides the bulk of the cost. Now this does not mean that every item out there is available. The Vatican is not likely to lend its secret archives out to anyone. What is generally available are the mass published materials that everyone has a chance to purchase, such as books that are found on Amazon.com or a site like it.
Now, that does not mean that all materials that you find on Amazon or on the web are available. Their are some items that libraries aren’t willing to lend out, either because of scarcity or because of cost. Materials that are difficult to acquire through ILL are audio visual materials (videos, cds, dvds, etc.), Special Collections or Archives materials (lets face it the Library of Congress is not going to let you borrow the original papers of George Washington Carver), and Theses and Dissertations.

Is there a difference between Augustinianism and (Five Points) Calvinism as they relate to the doctrine of salvation?
If so, what is the difference?

This almost seems like a homework question. – Richard Aug 24 '11 at 16:25

Augustinianism is not nearly as specific as 5-points, Dordt Calvinism. For instance, I don't know of anyplace where Augustine specifically addresses limited atonement.
The largest difference is that Augustine held to single predestination (God chooses the elect, but does not actively reprobate anyone - he simply "passes over" them), while Calvin held to double predestination (God choose the elect to salvation, and the reprobate to damnation).
Here are some specific quotes of Augustine's, as they relate to some of the points of Calvinism:
Unconditional Election
On The Predestination of the Saints, ch. 11
Therefore the election obtained what it obtained gratuitously; there preceded none of those things which they might first give, and it should be given to them again. He saved them for nothing. But to the rest who were blinded, as is there plainly declared, it was done in recompense.
On The Predestination of the Saints, ch. 16
Irresistable Grace
Enchuridion ch. 25
Furthermore, who would be so impiously foolish as to say that God cannot turn the evil wills of men—as he willeth, when he willeth, and where he willeth—toward the good? But, when he acteth, he acteth through mercy; when he doth not act, it is through justice. For, "he hath mercy on whom he willeth; and whom he willeth, he hardeneth."
On The Predestination of the Saints, Ch. 13
This grace, therefore, which is hiddenly bestowed in human hearts by the Divine gift, is rejected by no hard heart, because it is given for the sake of first taking away the hardness of the heart.
Perseverence of the Saints
On The Predestination of the Saints, ch. 33
For all who are teachable of God come to the Son because they have heard and learned from the Father through the Son, who most clearly says, “Every one who has heard of the Father, and has learned, cometh unto me.” But of such as these none perishes, because “of all that the Father hath given Him, He will lose none.” Whoever, therefore, is of these does not perish at all; nor was any who perishes ever of these.
Single vs. Double Predestination Look at the quotes under "unconditional election" above. Augustine speaks passively about the non-elect. God witholds the grace of election, but is not actively reprobating. Contrast this with Calvin on reprobation:
Institutes III.xxii.11:

An anonymous user thinks your conception of Augustine's predestination isn't right and I tend to agree with them. Can you site the source (and maybe a source saying that this is the correct interpretation of Augustine)? – Peter Turner Nov 3 '11 at 21:47
Yes, I can look some things up when I get home. What would you like clarity on? Do you just want evidence he believed in single-predestination and not double-predestination? – gmoothart Nov 4 '11 at 17:18
More like evidence that his conception of predestination had anything to do with Calvin's. I've read what he says about predestination in City of God but I didn't understand it in light of Catholic teaching. As a Doctor of the Church, I'm pretty sure his position informed Catholic doctrine and the way St. Paul's writings on predestination has been read by the Catholic Church and Calvin's main point was in opposition to Catholic teaching on predestination so I'm just wondering where the disconnect is. – Peter Turner Nov 4 '11 at 17:37
You've set up a scenario whereby Calvin would defend an active reprobation as opposed to a passive one. Your quote of Calvin neither defends nor denies this claim. There is nothing in the quote that says Calvin believed that it requires God to actively do something in order to harden and reprobate. The Calvinist authors I read believe that when God hardens, he actually does nothing (in other words, he leaves them as they are in their default state of rejection), as opposed to working in the hearts of His chosen that they would repent. Can you find a better quote or else change your answer? – San Jacinto Dec 18 '12 at 16:22
@SanJacinto By "active" I was just trying to speak about God's choices. For Calvin, God chooses to elect some and chooses to reject others - whether or not he has to "do" anything to reject the reprobate - and that choice is prior to any (lack of) merit on their part. I linked the Calvin quote, if you look at all of section 11 he is really clear about that. Augustine never spoke of reprobation in that way. – gmoothart Dec 18 '12 at 19:35
Five Point Calvinism teaches is based on five key points:
Calvinism in regards to salvation is rooted in Augustinianism to the point where it's often called Augustinianism.
While Augustinianism did not have five distinct points (as outlined above), it did agree with (and was the source of) each of these.
share|improve this answer
Calvinism as I understand it see the five points as an inherently coherent system, where each point is logically dependent on the 4 others. Is there such an idea of a unified system of soteriology in Augustinianism? – ℝaphink Aug 24 '11 at 16:46
That's a fascinating question! Having studied this topic for a full hour now, I'm sure I'm the expert. :P j/k. Seriously, though... From what I've seen, there does seem to be a common thread or theory that unites these concepts, but I don't think that Augustine went so far as to say that they are all reliant on each other. However, all the concepts together seem to be unified in a way that can't be separated--a belief in any one seems to lead to a belief in the rest. But I haven't seen anything specific stating that from Augustine. – Richard Aug 24 '11 at 16:56
1,000 years before John Calvin was an idea. After His apologetic battle with Pelagius. Augustine wrote a book called On Grace and Free Will. This was necessitated by two extremes that he saw and had concluded (in agreement with all the fathers before him) that both extremes were in error and he would not be accused (as some were saying) that because of his arguments against Pelagius that he was denying the role of men's freedom of will. Augustine believed in neither a "total" depravity (as in absolute incapability) or in a post-Dordt Reformed position.
He writes in chapter 1
"*But since there are some persons who so defend God's grace as to deny man's free will, or who suppose that free will is denied when grace is defended, I have determined to write somewhat on this point to your Love, my brother Valenti*us, and the rest of you, who are serving God together under the impulse of a mutual love…*"
He goes on page after page defending the necessary requirement by God of man to respond to the word of truth, the gospel of our salvation. God speaks (whether through the word preached or read or heard through another) and God has sovereignly determined from before the foundation of the world that man must demonstrate belief (which is not a work according to Romans 4:2-5). He quotes form over 30 scriptures which in the Greek are in the imperative mood which precludes man can turn unto Him, receive, open the door when He knocks, etc.,
Opening chapter 2 he relates that
"Now He has revealed to us, through His Holy Scriptures, that there is in a man a free choice of will. But how He has revealed this I do not recount in human language, but in divine. There is, to begin with, the fact that God's precepts themselves would be of no use to a man unless he had free choice of will, so that by performing them he might obtain the promised rewards. For they are given that no one might be able to plead the excuse of ignorance, as the Lord says concerning the Jews in the gospel: If I had not come and spoken unto them, they would not have sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin…"
In chapter 4 he asks the logical question
"What is the import of the fact that in so many passages God requires all His commandments to be kept and fulfilled? How does He make this requisition, if there is no free will?"
And then answers it...he says ...
"...there are so many commandments which in some way are expressly adapted to the human will; for instance, there is, Be not overcome of evil, Romans 12:1 and others of similar import, such as, Be not like a horse or a mule, which have no understanding; and, Reject not the counsels of your mother; Proverbs 1:8 and, Be not wise in your own conceit; Proverbs 3:7 and, Despise not the chastening of the Lord; Proverbs 3:11 and, Forget not my law; Proverbs 3:1 and, Forbear not to do good to the poor; Proverbs 3:27 and, Devise not evil against your friend; Proverbs 3:29 and, Give no heed to a worthless woman; Proverbs 5:2 and, He is not inclined to understand how to do good; and, They refused to attend to my counsel; Proverbs 1:30 with numberless other passages of the inspired Scriptures of the Old Testament. And what do they all show us but the free choice of the human will? So, again, in the evangelical and apostolic books of the New Testament what other lesson is taught us? As when it is said, Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth; Matthew 6:19 and, Fear not them which kill the body; Matthew 10:28 and, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself; Matthew 16:24 and again, Peace on earth to men of good will. Luke 2:14 So also that the Apostle Paul says: Let him do what he wills; he sins not if he marry. Nevertheless, he that stands steadfast in his heart, having no necessity, but has power over his own will, and has so decreed in his heart that he will keep his virgin, does well. 1 Corinthians 7:36-37 And so again, If I do this willingly, I have a reward; 1 Corinthians 9:17 while in another passage he says, Be sober and righteous, and sin not; 1 Corinthians 15:34 and again, As you have a readiness to will, so also let there be a prompt performance; 2 Corinthians 8:11 then he remarks to Timothy about the younger widows, When they have begun to wax wanton against Christ, they choose to marry. So in another passage, All that will to live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution; 2 Timothy 3:12 while to Timothy himself he says, Neglect not the gift that is in you. 1 Timothy 4:14 Then to Philemon he addresses this explanation: That your benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but of your own will. Servants also he advises to obey their masters with a good will. Ephesians 6:7 In strict accordance with this, James says: Do not err, my beloved brethren . . . and have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ with respect to persons; and, Do not speak evil one of another. James 4:11 So also John in his Epistle writes, Do not love the world, 1 John 2:15and other things of the same import. Now wherever it is said, Do not do this, and Do not do that, and wherever there is any requirement in the divine admonitions for the work of the will to do anything, or to refrain from doing anything, there is at once a sufficient proof of free will. No man, therefore, when he sins, can in his heart blame God for it, but every man must impute the fault to himself. Nor does it detract at all from a man's own will when he performs any act in accordance with God. Indeed, a work is then to be pronounced a good one when a person does it willingly; then, too, may the reward of a good work be hoped for from Him concerning whom it is written, He shall reward every man according to his works. Matthew 16:27"
This is the exact opinion (the mutual existence of predestination and free will and NOT TOTAL depravity) that one will find going all the way back to Justin. All the fathers in whatever church, in whatever nation, regardless of which Apostle founded the church and taught and appointed these earliest teachers, all taught the self same one unified doctrine. After Calvin a theological war began that has lasted 500 years (you shall know then by their fruit)...Calvin is precisely the extreme error Augustine here refutes.

Initial Public Offerings: Price Differences
There can be a large difference between the price of shares when purchased in an initial public offering (IPO) and the price for the same shares when they start trading in the secondary market (where previously issued stocks, bonds, and other securities are bought and sold) after the IPO.
The pricing disparities occur most often when an IPO is "hot" or appeals to many investors. When an IPO is "hot," the demand for the securities far exceeds the supply of shares. The excess demand can only be completely satisfied once trading in the IPO shares begins. This imbalance between supply and demand generally causes the price of each share to rise dramatically in the first hours or days of trading. The price often falls after this initial flurry of trading subsides.
You can find more information about IPOs, including why investors have difficulty getting shares in an IPO and a brokerage firm's IPO eligibility requirements.

In the middle of room is a cube which is made of white A4 copypaper. Behind the cube is a pile of fake Alvar Aalto stools (stool 60). Stools are made of MDF-board. Two architectonic concrete fragments lie partly on stools and partly on papercube. Bigger fragment is placed so that it stays in equilibre between pile of stools and papercube.
On the end of room close to celing level is a wind machine. Machine is programmed so that it ocassionally blows a strong gust to the room. Air current removes papers and gradually dismantles the cube.
On the other end of the room is a 20 ” flat videomonitor which shows short video of jackdaw escaping from his nest. Video is shooted through a safety net in towers of San Giminiano.

Back Room
This room is a permanent exhibition of Finnish animal sculptor Jussi Mäntynen (1886-1978).
In this room there is a black and white illusionistic sculpture. Sculpture shows a fictional situation of a sculpture by Jussi Mäntynen in progressIn the sculpture part of lynx's head is visible from a artificial block of stone. Original Lynx statue made of granite is exhibited in the same room.
Block is placed on a plinth with some boards and trash leaning to it. Sculpture is made of styrofoam coverd with Foamcoat, MDF-board and aluminium.
Installation Bird and Library is quite diverese in relation to your earlier works. It has different elements, materials and medias in one constitution. What lies behind this way constructing a work?
In my latest works I have dealt a lot with idea of narrative, fictive installation. Simply said the idea is to create an environment of various visual and readible elements which in interaction to each other and viewer create sort of narrative network. Different medium require their own form of language and vocabulary which doesn't create a language of their own but a mixture of starts and meanings within the space. Using different mediums prevents the meaning to crystallise to fixed point. It requires the viewer to change viewpoints and thus "start again" looking at the work. This also reason why I like using elements which have temporal nature.
Tell me about how you start your work. For example with this exhibition.
I work very differentily with different medias. In installation works the startingpoint is always in exhibition space. I begin with research of history and characteristics of space in use.
This work has a lot to do with Turku Art Museums collection, especially the Jussi Mäntynen collection in next room to the Studio space. Mäntynen was a former taxidermist who later devoted himself to animal sculptures. He was popular in Finland in 19 th century. Sculptures are stylized and have also a strange almost cartoon-like exaggereting outfit. His works have strong nationalistic emphasis. His active years were the years of forming the Finland as independent state.
One is his most famous sculptures is a Elk statue. Copys of that are located in four various citys: Viipuri (Russia), Helsinki, Lahti and Turku, where this exhibition took place. While doing the research for this exhibition I found an old poscard which depicted The Elk Statue in front of Alvar Aaltos famous Viipuri library in Russia, on former finnish area. The photo was taken in 1942, during the truce between two wars between Finland and Sovjet Union.
Role of Alvar Aalto as "nations architect" was obvious. His international poetic modernism was regarded as a finnish genuine style. The contradiction and common background between Mäntynens heroic, mythologal sculpture and Aaltos timeless formalistic funktionalism was fruitful and contradictory combination. Both are regarded as constructors of national esteem even they represent opposite ends in style of their production.
The exhibition took place Turku, city where Aalto had his office in beginning of century. The first functionalistic building in Skandinavia, Turun Sanomat printing house, is located in same town. Aaltos set of Standard furniture for Viipuri Library was made in Korhonen factory in Turku. Viipuri Library was the first public building by Aalto where he used for exmple the famous three leg stools (Stool 60).
Aaltos architecture opened to me the idea of standardisation. Aalto himself didn't have clear systems, but Le corbusiers and Aulis Blumsteds systems are well known. I ended up using A4 paper which is maybe the most common standardised "object" we meet every day. It has tactility that is familiar to everyone. It represent also something which is bound to idea and potentiality. It gets its content by abstraction, text or drawing. A4 is sort of white cube in two dimensions.
By constructing a plinth from this paper I created nothing from nothing, a platform for content. That white cube had also role as a supporter of concrete fragment. The pile of fake stool 60s had similar nature. They were used as supporters instead of a seats. The material MDF-board is basicly paper, it has a clear sense of being a non-material, material of idea. Concrete fragment has parts copied form from Viipuri Library, for example well known outline of bird from reading rooms ceiling. That is something Aaltio designed as an acoustic and visual element.
In the other end there is a wind machine. Is it just to make papers move?
When I started to do this exhibition I felt like using elements of spectacle. In the houses Aalto designed I have visited have certain modesty in them, they are intimate even when they are public buildings. I wanted to include something opposite to this work. The wind machine is a machine for special effects, to create artificial naturalistic effect. It has exaggerative like in Mantynens sculptures. Gusts dismante the paper cube and change the exhibition situation to a temoporal performance. The sculptural elements act by chance. Wind machine also takes viewer to be a part of exhibition, artificial wind disturbs them and creates a white paper floor.
The Jackdaw video is a decoy to viewer to move over the paper-covered floor. The video itself is very simple, just one image, a glipse of bird, Jackdaw escaping from its nest. Most of the time picture is empty with only black grid and branches moving in wind. Video is shooted on on handheld camera. Safety net constructs a grid over the picture. It organizes the image to smaller units. Everything that happens, happens behind it. I see that as a reference to the A4 paper in the cube. Because you can see only a glimpse of the bird, viewer is obliged to wait in front of monitor for something to happen. While looking at video he is located between a wind macine and a picture of windy situation, back turned to sensation while looking at abstraction.
In the room behind the Studio space is a Jussi Mantynen collection, a small room filled with animal sculptures. In your sculpture there is a cube on a plinth, cube is broken from the top, some round forming on the top of the cube. On the floor, leaning to plinth there are boards, papers and thrash. All this is painted black and white so that it resembles drawing or black and white photo. How does this work relate to Mantynen or this room?
I found an old book from 1929 where his work was presented. In the book there were profound descriptions of his devoted working methods. As a former taxidermist he knew anatomy but he also spent long times following animals in nature, discussed with hunters and followed animals in zoo. The text created almost a fictional character of artist devoting himself to his work. Interesting was the way how written text by descriptios drew the sculptures to diffrent level. Stone sculpture of Lynx was transformed to a transcendental creature.
I wanted to create very representative, pictorial work here. Main room of exhibition was filled with materials as they are. I wanted this back room to be a contradiction other parts of the exhibition and also to Mantynens stone and bronze works. I made a fictional sculpture of unfinshed lynx statue. It is a picture of work in progress. Everything in sculpture is fictional: It represents situation which has not happened, it depicts materials with materials of illusion, it is painted so that it looks like flat picture. It is opposite to Mantynens works and materials, but is by its form transsendential as original Lynx statue is by text.
Combination of these two rooms has a wide range of refrences from concrete historical happenings to material meanings. Why do you want to fill the work whit such a load of meanings?
I don't think it is a load. It is quite restricted network. I see exhibition as a situation, happening, where I can just present certain combination of elements with various meanings an references. The actual work takes place in the stucture of all this. You can follow different paths of meaning through this work. They work in different levels: stadardisation, copying, on formal level of image of bird or animal , one hand political meanings like nature imaginerys nationalistic bounds, heritage of modern architcture etc. This leads to situation of open sentences, many starts with no endings, formulation of meanings in process | http://vesapekkarannikko.com/bird-and-library-turku-art-museum-2009/ | isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2019-09

Earth, the name of our planet, comes from Old English meaning “ground, soil, dry land”. Since humans are terrestrial creatures by nature, it’s no surprise we chose to name our planet by the feature we knew best. Yet, only 29% of the planet surface is the greens, greys, browns, clays of earth; the remaining 71% is our shimmering ocean, representing 139 million square miles of planet surface and billions of tons of biomass.
Vital water gives us the blues, azures, cobalts, teals, grays of the ocean. Back to etymology, the word water comes, in part, from Sanskrit meaning “to animate.” Indeed, the dynamism and vitality of all life on Earth owes itself to the ocean. We often hear about how many millions of years ago, the first creatures emerged from the ocean to populate the land. For this, often is the refrain, we owe our existence to the ocean.
While this storyline is true, it misses the larger truth that the ocean has never stopped supporting us, that it has sustained and nurtured every living organism on this planet since the arrival of animate life. That it is sustaining you and me at this very moment. The 310 million cubic miles of water that are in our ocean is the cornerstone — actually the entire foundation — of planet chemistry and biology.
On Earth Day, as we observe and appreciate our planet’s grandeur, we should also hold dear the 71% percent of the planet that is often overlooked. The ocean is Earth’s blue heart and it sustains us and all we love. As we commit ourselves today to respect planet Earth, let’s remember that without blue, there is no green.

Things are, once again, worse than ever at San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station...
December 26th, 2010
Dear Readers,
It always breaks my heart when I hear nuclear workers say they wouldn't be doing it if they thought they were putting their children at risk. These same workers take their children to McDonald's. No risk there, huh? A disproportionate number of them smoke tobacco, and inevitably, their children become smokers more frequently, too. They likewise ignore the dangers from CT scans, x-rays, sunlight and tritium, and they, and their children, get cancer and die, just like the rest of us. Death leaves no voter behind. Even if they "wise up" as they whither and die, it does society no good. Their voting days are done. Today, they might be on the local school board, stopping opinions they don't agree with, and a long-time employee of the nuclear power plant. But tomorrow perhaps, they'll feel a sudden pain that won't stop, or they'll cough up blood, or -- like me -- they'll piss blood, and then their life changes.... but all too often, it's too late by then.
And they don't know if it was the cigarettes or the hamburgers or the x-rays or the CT scans or the sun or their job or something else, but it doesn't really matter, it's over. And if they DO survive, a lot of times, radiation is given in ample quantities before, during, and after treatment, and it's hard to complain about getting too much radiation when the doctor's telling you he thinks he sees a lump... Radiation to find the cancer. Radiation to cure it. Radiation to be sure it remains gone. Radiation to prevent its recurrence. Radiation to keep the hospital's liability down.
The main key to cancer survivability is early detection followed by timely and skilled medical care. No infections, no tools left inside the body, all the holes sewed up nicely. No matter how good it gets, it's not nearly as fun as not getting cancer in the first place.
Many, if not most, cancers are the result of a series of changes in the DNA structure. Although the final initiating event will likely be one random change to the DNA of one cell in the body, out of 10s of trillions of cells, frequently many cells are in the "pre-cancerous" stage by then, which makes "curing" cancer very difficult indeed.
On Tuesday, December 14th, 2010, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) held a Special Hearing on San Onofre's ongoing problems with worker honesty, integrity, and related morale issues. The dangers to children from environmental radiation were not discussed, although they should have been. Scores of San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station workers showed up at the hearing, wearing "SONGS" dress shirts, polo shirts, jackets, patches, name tags, and/or beepers. The CEO of Edison International (the parent company of Southern California Edison (SCE), which operates the facility (with a lot of sub-contractors such as Bechtel and The Shaw Group)), had flown in, and he sat in the front row along with several other Edison corporate celebrities and NRC mucky-mucks, as well as a couple of recently-retired, 25-year SONGS veterans who are now whistleblowers.
Facing the audience were four SCE executives at one table -- the top one yet another new guy -- and four NRC inspectors at another table. At its peak, there were about 150 people in the room.
During the "formal" part of the meeting, we were told that all the important "metrics" show improvement, and nothing unsafe is happening at the plant. The NRC feels that they are getting the proper feedback from the utility workers so that they can maintain a "Safety-Conscious Work Environment" ("SCWE") and proper regulatory control. We were told that all the workers now carry a "blue book" which tells them how to behave, and many members of the audience held up their "blue books" to show that they carry them all the time, along with their beepers.
However, when the public comment period began and the whistleblowers started speaking out, a completely different picture emerged. Things are, once again, worse than ever at San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station.
Regarding the steel I-beam that was dropped into the spent fuel pool last month (which I had written about in a previous newsletter), we were told that it "only" weighed about 40 pounds. The NRC assumes that even if the I-beam had fallen vertically it wouldn't have been able to damage a 1,400-pound reactor fuel assembly, considering that the reactor fuel assemblies are designed to withstand a second reactor fuel assembly falling on top of them vertically at "terminal velocity" through water.
We were told that even if a fuel leakage issue was somehow caused by such an accident, or any "foreseeable" accident, the radiation would be contained inside the spent fuel pool building, which is very large and "negatively pressurized."
Of course. in order to have negative pressure, you have to suck air out, at least somewhat, because everything leaks, at least somewhat, and people have to go in and out through doorways, and fuel has to go in and out.
Fans draw the excess air out, but not to worry: Everything goes through a HEPA filter! HEPA filters were designed for the nuclear industry, and the standards are written by the Department of Energy (DOE).
So just because they can't even stop a 40-pound I-beam from falling, there's nothing to worry about, because they'll still achieve a 99.99% containment of any radioactive crud that is released, thanks to the HEPA filters, right?
Well, not quite.
To use the word "HEPA" when you market your filter, you are required to achieve a 99.97% filtration of particles larger than 0.3 microns in diameter. At 99.97% efficiency, 3 out of every 10,000 large particles gets through, which can quickly add up to trillions of large particles "legally" getting through the filter. Most of the particles that are released above 0.3 microns will be right around the 0.3 micron size.
Anything smaller than 0.3 microns isn't required to be stopped at all, and of course, any accident will release a spectrum of particle sizes, and many accidents are likely to have average particle sizes in the 0.1 micron size. So HEPA filters aren't all they're cracked up to be! And industry standards are three times weaker than what you probably would go buy yourself at the store.
As a HEPA filter is used, the average particle size it can stop will get smaller as material cakes around the filter material, while the pressure to push air through the filter increases accordingly. If the caked material reacts chemically with the filter material, it can damage the fibers and greatly reduce the effectiveness of the filter. Radiation would, of course, damage the filter material, no matter what that material is.
A good eye can discern objects down to about 10 microns in size, so what HEPA filters do let through is, conveniently enough, invisible. HEPA filters do not stop ANY noble gases, which don't clump into large particles. AND is it just a coincidence that noble gases that might be released in an accident aren't normally measured, reported, considered, or believed to be any cause for concern? Noble gases are generally considered "harmless" because the body doesn't utilize them in any way. But the body absorbs them "accidentally" all the time, so they are in the body at a fairly constant rate.
HEPA filters also won't stop tritium. A single gram of tritium will undergo about 370 trillion (370,000,000,000,000) decays per second.
Fortunately, when they dropped the steel I-beam, it didn't get jammed beside a fuel assembly, which then got damaged as they tried to remove it... I'm just saying, it COULD have happened... Nothing went wrong THIS time. And the NRC feels they learned something.
Did they learn that since 40-year-old steel hooks fail (that's the probable age of the part) that perhaps the whole rest of the plant is falling apart, embrittling unexpectedly, deteriorating from the salty air, the radiation, the heat, the humidity, father time, and poor maintenance?
Instead, the utility replaced the hook and the NRC made a generic new rule: Lanyards should be used for lifts over the spent fuel pool.
Which reminds me of the (true story!) guy who was demonstrating safety procedures for a class of young mountain-climbers. He cut his main rope in order to show how the safety rope will catch you safely.
Only it didn't, and he fell 40 feet to his death.
Lanyards break, too.
At the nuclear power plant, the "Standard Operating Procedure" is that there is no such thing as a warning sign of an upcoming catastrophic failure. There are just "lessons learned." So here we sit, at the brink of disaster, and all we have are "lessons learned"!
And actually, we don't even have THAT!
Why not?
Because one lesson learned at San Onofre over and over again is that the records kept by the employees there are NOT ACCURATE! So whatever lessons COULD be learned will soon be forgotten.
I'm sure there are still a lot of good people left at San Onofre.
Let's guess that 90% of the workforce are decent, honest people. That seems kind of high to me, but if that's the case, then about 200 to 300 people, depending on how many contractors are on the staff at any one time, are dishonest at San Onofre. That leaves a lot of room for fraud and deceit!
But even if 99% are honest (a hopelessly optimistic number, judging by the "human factors" problems they are having at the plant) that would still mean that 20 to 30 people are running around the plant faking things, covering up problems, pretending everything went well when it didn't, not finishing jobs... how many screw-ups does it take to cause a meltdown? Just one.
A year ago I heard about problems with integrity in dry fuel cask fabrication, problems of not performing work to specifications. The whistleblower, a long-time San Onofre employee, was also a former Los Alamos technician and a former Marine sniper as well. Now we're hearing that pressure tests (which I assume should normally follow cask fabrication) are being done improperly too.
How DO you spell "recipe for disaster"? SONGS.

Corrected venue for the San Onofre hearing tomorrow... (12/14/10)
Dear Readers,
The venue for tomorrow's San Onofre Safety hearing is going to be Dana Point again, NOT San Clemente as I had indicated in yesterday's newsletter.
I apologize for the error. The correct information is included in Gary Headrick's San Clemente Greens San Onofre SOS newsletter, shown below.
From: "Gary Headrick" <>
Subject: SC Green - SONGS Update - SOS
Date: Mon, 13 Dec 2010 14:37:28 -0800
Once again, our San Onofre Safety (SOS) issues are being addressed by the NRC at a public meeting Tuesday night, and once again, I expect to hear how the NRC will continue to apply meaningless consequences to these significant safety concerns. If you want to attend, the meeting takes place at the Double Tree Hotel on Tuesday, December 14 from 6:00 to 9:00pm at Doubletree Guest Suites Doheny Beach, CA 34402 Pacific Coast Highway, Dana Point, CA 92629. But if you want to do more than just attend, fill out a card when you first come in so you can make a brief statement for the record. Perhaps you'll have a few questions about the incidents mentioned below. If this is any indication of what the NRC considers safe, you can only wonder if things at SONGS are actually much worse than we've been told.
Here are the details of our conversation with the NRC and a link to a news article showing how different the media covers this topic.
I am disappointed to see that only part of this story is being told. I brought this matter to the attention of Paul Sisson, writer for North (SD)County Times and it seems he has overlooked the main point of my message. My wife and I spoke personally to the NRC officials after being tipped off by an insider, and contacted him about it to alert the public to a very near miss, because we may all be running out of luck!
A nuclear disaster is just waiting to happen, and when it does, Southern California will never be the same. As an individual living near to the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS) I have done my best to communicate troubles at the plant being exposed by whistleblowers to me because I am Co-founder of San Clemente Green, and they feel threatened by going to the usual authorities.
The most recent troubling event took place on November 24th, Thanksgiving Day, (I don't know why the article says the 25th). An employee contacted me on November 30th to ask, " Do you or anybody in your organization have any information about the accident at SONGS last week where an employee dropped a 4ft piece of steel into the spent fuel pool?" I immediately looked into it by contacting Greg Warnick at the NRC, with whom I have developed an open line of communication.
On December 6th, a conference call was arranged between myself, my wife Laurie (the other co-founder of SC Green), Greg Warnick (Sr. Resident Inspector), Victor Dricks (Sr, Public Affairs Officer with the NRC), and Ryan Lantz (NRC Branch Chief). Greg did most of the talking, and was very forthright in his assessment of the situation. In a room where anyone entering must first be inspected for having lanyards attached to any loose articles such as hat and glasses to prevent anything from falling into the spent reactor pool, a steel I-Beam fell from a crane into a pool 23 feet deep, only causing minor damage to the racks below because it fell horizontally instead of vertically. Had it fallen in the vertical position, which was the process being simulated with the beam, testing the crane as required before actually lowering a batch of spent fuel, the damage to the spent fuel containers at the bottom of the pool could likely have released an unknown quantity of radioactive gasses. This would have resulted in an immediate shutdown and evacuation of the premises, causing a chain of events that one can only imagine. I said,"this must have been an adrenaline moment for all involved", and Greg responded "it certainly was, knowing what could have happened".
It might surprise you to know that the official NRC Significance Threshold regarding this incident was MINOR and did not require reporting to the public. This qualified as a Low Level Issue according to policies and procedures of the NRC. They identified it as a "Procedure Vulnerability" which needed further evaluation, recommending things such as tethering the beam to prevent it from falling should the hook ever fail again.
You may be also be interested to learn about the accidental release of 14,000 gallons of "low level" radioactive water on November 17th. Greg said that people who work at the plant are very emotional about this and feel let down by management, (it would certainly be interesting to hear their stories). The list of problems like this goes on, and they always fail to reach the level of significance one would expect from an agency whose purpose is to protect the public. The safety track record of this plant is appalling, and yet the same corrective actions for violations is applied time and time again, which amounts to nothing more than the NRC telling Southern California Edison that they really have to do something about it or else there will be even more inspections in the future. The possibility of actually closing the plant is never seriously being considered, even if only long enough for management to get a handle on the culture of fear employees have for reporting concerns as was cited in the "Chilling Effect" letter issued by the NRC last spring.
Further raising the odds for a disaster, the power plant is currently undergoing an accident prone procedure to replace the old generators in Unit 3, essentially adding a new, more powerful engine to an old chassis and hoping it all holds together. The plant was designed in the 50's, constructed in the 60's and originally planned for decommissioning in 2013, which lobbying efforts have succeeded in extending to 2020. All of this is taking place at the plant that has ten times more safety infractions than any other nuclear power plant in the United States. There is a persistent culture of fear in contradicting management, and there is an influx of 1000 new workers assigned to the task. Only 3 inspectors are on site being responsible to oversee the activities of more than 3000 employees. A new man is at the helm, the second replacement in less than six months, but we are proceeding at full speed ahead before addressing the problems so widely known. These are the kind of red flags so often referred to in the aftermath of tragic events that might have been avoided.
I hope all of this information is sufficient enough to warrant further investigation. A quick search on the internet will reveal the depth of this problem. This truly is a matter of tremendous impact on life on the entire Pacific Coast of a magnitude far greater than the BP oil spill. It is still avoidable, but only if people in high places will listen and react appropriately. Locally these concerns fall on deaf ears because many in San Clemente are directly or indirectly tied economically to SONGS, and all of us homeowners stand to lose considerable property values when trouble at SONGS is exposed by the media. It is the media that should be the single most effective means of finding a resolution prior to this pending disaster by making it public knowledge. They have the power to give voice to the workers at SONGS who are raising the same types of concerns that BP employees had expressed before lives were lost and the worst environmental disaster of our times continues to persist well into the future. The huge difference is the complications that radioactive waste contributes to the problem. We need your help in exposing this dreadful truth now before our luck runs out!

SAN ONOFRE: Latest progress report on nuke plant set for Tuesday
By PAUL SISSON - | Posted: Thursday, December 9, 2010 5:37 pm
Federal regulators are scheduled to update the public Tuesday on progress in solving what they have said are ongoing problems with worker performance and the safety culture at the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station.
Officials with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission will hold a meeting at a Dana Point hotel with executives from Southern California Edison, the plant's majority owner, to discuss ongoing inspections and findings that have resulted in increased scrutiny for San Onofre over the last two years.
In the meantime, a plant spokesman confirmed that a 4-foot metal beam was dropped into a spent fuel pool at the plant during a "routine test" on Nov. 25.
Plant spokesman Gil Alexander said in an e-mail that workers were testing a lift mechanism inside a fortified building next to one of San Onofre's twin containment domes when the bar "became detached and fell a short distance into the pool."
Alexander said the incident "caused no injuries or damage to the fuel stored in the pool."
He said Edison intends to use the unexpected drop as a learning experience.
"We take this incident very seriously even though it posed no risk to workers or the public," Alexander said. "We have put into place a number of corrective measures to prevent its reoccurrence."
Victor Dricks, a spokesman for the NRC, said in an e-mail Thursday that the federal agency agrees with Edison's assessment of the incident.
Some of the plant's most sensitive and volatile material, spent uranium fuel, sits at the bottom of San Onofre's two fuel pools. An Edison spokesperson said in 2004 that the fuel takes two to four years to cool after use, and must be kept at the bottom of the 45-foot-deep pools for seven to 10 years until its radioactivity diminishes enough for it to be stored in dry casks housed in above-ground concrete bunkers.
The Nov. 25 incident was not the first recent slip inside the plant's fuel storage area. According to a previous NRC report, released in May 2009, found that, in August 2008, a worker temporarily misplaced a fuel assembly inside one of the plant's pools.
Reports have also highlighted other issues at San Onofre, from falsified fire watch logs to incorrectly connected backup batteries that went undetected for several years. The problems have led to increased inspections and public pressure on plant management.
In a series of public meetings since 2008, regulators have said that San Onofre managers should do more to help workers learn to detect and prevent minor problems before they grow into major problems.
Tuesday's meeting will be the latest progress report from the federal government on how far San Onofre's work force has moved toward meeting that goal.
The meeting is scheduled to begin at 6 p.m. in the Trestles Room of the Doubletree Guest Suites, 34402 Pacific Coast Highway in Dana Point.

Dear Readers,
The problems started long ago, before the plant was built.
Yet they built the reactors anyway.
It wasn't.
It isn't.
It won't be.
It can't be.
They'll just burn and burn and burn...
You'd think they'd know better.
It's a lawless mob at San Onofre.
We should be, too.
Their spouses are also frightened.

I'll Do It Tomorrow...
The poet Martial writes in Epigram V.58:
Cras te victurum, cras dicis, Postume, semper:
dic mihi, cras istud, Postume, quando venit?
Quam longe cras istud! ubi est? aut unde petendum?
Numquid apud Parthos Armeniosque latet?
Iam cras istud habet Priami vel Nestoris annos.
Cras istud quanti, dic mihi, possit emi?
Cras vives? Hodie iam vivere, Postume, serum est:
ille sapit quisquis, Postume, vixit heri.
And I offer this translation:
You always say that you will live tomorrow, Postumus, tomorrow!
Tell me, that tomorrow of yours, Postumus, when does it come?
How far away that tomorrow is! Where is it? Where must we look for it?
Does it hide out among the Parthians and Armenians?
Tell me, how much will that tomorrow of yours cost?
Will you live tomorrow? Postumus, it is already too late to live today:
He is wise whoever lived yesterday, Postumus!
This poem has come up in class at a very interesting time. It is the end of the marking period and I have just spent a very unpleasant weekend grading papers, tests, essays, and make-up work. When I say that I spent the weekend, I mean, literally, the whole weekend.
The first part of the problem comes from my own procrastination. I let the papers pile up and then they become a chore. When they become a chore, they are avoided. When they are avoided, they hang over my head and make me more anxious than any sword of Damocles.
The second part of the problem I attribute to overextending myself and saying "yes" to far too many things when I am already taxed. We moved to block scheduling this year and that means three 90-minute shows a day, each show different, interesting, and, I hope, productive.
Finally, I am beginning to realize that the third part of the problem is that I am requiring too much graded work from my students. There are quizzes on vocabulary, grammar, syntax, translations, culture, history, mythology, and then tests, benchmark tests, and exams. I also require prepared translations and exercises and even the occasional poster or project. Those who are marginal students are quickly overwhelmed and become discouraged. In frustration they come to hate the study of Latin, regret their decision of taking it, and refuse to go on.
My realization, some twenty years after I started teaching: not everything requires work, not all work requires a grade, and not every grade needs to be recorded. As a young teacher fresh out of college I would have considered this blasphemy. Now, as an experienced teacher in the middle of my career, I realize that this is the approach that will allow me to see the wisdom of Martial's words.

I agree with you that not everything needs to be graded/recorded. My kids often ask for some things to be for grades and sometimes i will oblige them. And other times i randomly take up the work and do it for completion-- i often still go back and check it but its not as much pressure to get it done right away then. I've started having my kids correct each others work-- its made it easier for me, as well. Whether they get it will show up when you asses them.

Here in Scotland, we are in the middle of a debate about the benefits of "formative assessment" (= informally checking knowledge and understanding as you go along) as opposed to "summative assessment" (= what you just spent your week-end doing).
Also, your anonymous correspondent's point about peer-assessment ("having the kids correct each other's work") is a valuable one. And then ask the whole class to contribute any interesting points that arose while they were reading their classmates' work. | http://promagistris.blogspot.com/2006/04/ill-do-it-tomorrow.html | isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2019-13

BEIRUT - The cutting of a deal with Iran over its nuclear program after years of acrimony has raised hopes among some that the agreement will prompt movement in stalled talks to end the Syrian civil war.
Iran is a major ally and backer of Syrian President Bashar Assad, whom the United States has been trying to persuade to step aside and end a war that is more than two years running and has killed well over 100,000 people.
"Will the agreement change much the Syria situation? I don't think so," says Ammar al-Hassan, spokesman for the Syrian rebel group Islamic Army.
"Syria has been paying the price of U.S.-Iran negotiations that have been going on for months now, so the fact that they have been made public will not affect the ongoing war across Syria and here in Ghouta," he said, referring to a town that was subjected to a chemical attack in August that killed hundreds of women and children.
Over the weekend, Iran agreed to a deal with negotiators from the West to cap some of its nuclear enrichment at a level under what is needed to make fuel for a bomb in return for a relaxation of economic sanctions against it.
The deal had both sides praising a new era of openness between Iran and the West, even though critics in Congress said it failed to roll back Iran's program and relies too much on promises not to enrich fuel for a bomb.
Soon after the pact was reached, United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki Moon announced that he was setting a January date to resume talks with Syria's warring parties and hoped that Iran, which has been arming fighters for Assad, may attend.
But on Tuesday, Syria's main opposition group in exile said it had not made a final decision yet on whether it would participate in the talks to be held in Geneva, as were the Iran talks. And the U.S.-backed, rebel-led Free Syrian Army said flat-out it would not attend.
Anti-government forces and many in the West say the Assad regime's actions will prevent a true agreement for peace. The attack in Ghouta killed 1,400 people, mostly civilians, in what Western rights groups and the rebels allege is a war crime by Assad. They demand Assad be brought to trial, and removed from office. Assad has blamed the rebels for the attack and says he will not step aside.
Al-Hassan says the new Iran accord does not change the rebels' hatred for Iran and its ally, the Lebanese party and U.S.-designated terror group Hezbollah, which has sent militants and weapons over the border to help Assad fight the uprising.
Speaking from Moadamiya, a suburb of Damascus, Syria, Ahmad al-Jabri, a member of the rebel Local Coordination Committee, underlines that most rebels feel President Obama has made clear that Syria was not a priority for his administration.
"Iran and its allies in Hezbollah will continue their killing, but the rebels might benefit
from the increasing support of Arab nationals, who for the most view
Iran with suspicion," he says.
Mourad al-Chami, spokesman for the Local Coordination Committee, says he believes that the Iran deal will exacerbate tensions between Sunnis and Shiites and reverberate through Syria, whose war has taken on a sectarian dimension with the mostly Sunni rebels fighting the Alawite-Shiite regime.
"The conflict in Syria might escalate as a result," he says.
Lebanese analyst Kassem Kassir defined the new deal as a "victory for Iran and its allies" that may improve chances for peace - but not in the way rebels hopes.
"It will have positive repercussions on Hezbollah's position in Lebanon and might herald a political solution in Syria now that the military solution seems to have been removed from the equation," Kassir explains.
The deal has been greeted positively by Hezbollah's inner circle, which approves of what it calls the United States' more realistic approach to dealing with Iran's regional influence.
"I am recalling the message from Sheik Mohamad Fadlallah (a powerful Shiite cleric) to President Jimmy Carter underlining that any improvement of relations with Hezbollah would have to go through Iran," Kassir says.
Early this month, Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah, in hiding in Syria, predicted that a successful conclusion of talks over Iran's nuclear program would strengthen the Islamic republic and its allies in the region. Hezbollah ally Nabih Berri, head of the Lebanese parliament and of the Shiite political party Amal, dubbed the accord "the deal of the generation."
Berri also said he hoped the agreement would pave the way for a "settlement" in Syria. Because Iran is now strengthened by its nuclear deal and allowed to retain its program, Berri said Iran should be made part of talks on Syria. Iran would then be able to attain its aims of the war through the negotiations: Assad's survival.

Re: Dead G-5400B
The KR-5600 had end of travel limit switches but only on the AZ rotor. The
EL rotor still had the thermal cutout switch. I still have one in the
basement that lasted for 9-10 years when I took it down. I don't know why
all rotors do not have end of travel limit switches. The Emoto EV800DX
does on both the AZ and EL but it is an expensive unit. I don't know about
the M2 unit. I think the KCT DOS driver has a timeout after which things
are turned off, but only if the PC is still up and running. I don't know
about the Windows drivers.
The KR-5400 (now the G-5400) had thermal cutout switches on both rotors.
It would seem to me that thermal cutout switches if designed to protect the
motor, would do just that. The KR-5400 unit had the KR400 and KR500
rotors. The AZ rotor, KR400, had the two motor windings on terminals 4 &
5. The common return for both windings was on both terminals 6 & 7. If
you used terminal 6, then you had the thermal switch in series with it. IF
you used terminal 7, then you had bypassed the thermal switch and had no
protection at all. The same thing is true with the EL rotor, KR500.
Terminal 6 had the protection, and terminal 7 did not. I don't know if
this is still true with the G5400 rotors or not, but perhaps someone can
verify this. If this is still true and by some chance terminal 7 was used
instead of terminal 6, then certainly the rotor motor will be damaged.

If the software turns on a motor, and then crashes, as apparently happened to you, the motors will be stressed and possibly destroyed. Also, a single random port write is enough to turn on the motors, so it's not unlikely for insane software to turn the motors on by accident. These risks are bad enough under DOS where the KCT was designed to work, but they are absolutely foolhardy under Windows. It was only a matter of time before somebody lost a rotor that way.

} | 1,010 | JUPITER, FL (Nov. 1, 1999) -- The most substantial returns on a successful investment arrive, and continue to arrive, after the investment has aged many years and as it continues to age. In other words, most of the return on your investment dollar is generated at the tail-end of a long-term investment's life.
A little numerical example never hurts. Put the nearest pencil behind your ear and then continue!
If you invest $10,000 and it grows to become $100,000 in 20 years (10 times your money in 20 years, great job!), any 10% gain from that point onward will earn you at least $10,000 on paper. That is, of course, your entire original investment. When you started, a 10% gain was worth only $1,000 to you.
Assuming that your portfolio eventually grew to $500,000 in value, a 10% gain (which is less than the S&P 500's average annual return since 1926) would equate to $50,000 in added paper value -- five times what you started with. Meanwhile, a mere 1% uptick would add $5,000 to your account's value.
The longer that you can hold winning investments, the more that you can eventually earn on them. The Rule Breaker Portfolio has prospered on this principle at what I call Hypersonic Warp 3000 (2000 is passe already) Super Galactic Speed (patent pending).
The BreakerPort's $2,000 that it invested in America Online (NYSE: AOL) in August of 1994 has already grown to over $293,000, representing a total return of over 14,000%. Now almost any move in the stock's price can result in a daily gain or loss that is often much larger than the portfolio's $2,000 initial stake. Today is a case in point: $11,000 in new value was created on the portfolio's $2,000 investment base -- that's amazing after only five years. After a few decades, however, something like this is merely the reasonably hoped-for outcome. An investment's value will ideally dwarf your initial investment in it. This is compounding at work. Most people don't understand it.
A Washington survey released last week found that 25% of Americans believe that the government-run lottery is their best chance for achieving wealth. In other words, a quarter of people in our country believe that they have a better chance of getting struck by lightning than they do of living with significant monetary comfort. This is unfortunate to say the least. But this fact also represents a great opportunity. It represents an opportunity for Fools everywhere to help others learn about saving and the "surprise" of compounding.
Compounding is so subtle it's deceptive. Compounding means that if you invest just $50 a week for 40 years, and you earn 9% on the money annually, you'll end with over $1,026,850. Plus, that 9% return is below that S&P 500's average 11% annual return, a return which history says you could earn by investing in a simple index fund. At 11%, you'd have close to $2 million after 40 years in the scenario above. To calculate the potential value of your own situation over 10 years, 20 years, or however long, use the Fool's handy compoundulator.
The higher your average annual return, obviously, the greater amount that your money will compound. America Online and Amazon.com (Nasdaq: AMZN) have compounded at typically unheard of rates, but happily this type of success always swims -- along with a school of sharks -- in a Rule Breaker's sea of possibilities. Finding exceptional Rule Breakers while not getting bitten isn't easy. David Gardner presented six Rule Breaker criteria to help light an otherwise dark and vast water. It is upon Fools such as you and me (and David) to dive down and seek the best that the market has to offer.
My favorite Rule Breaker from an ocean of possible choices: eBay (Nasdaq: EBAY).
In a nutshell, eBay has an unlimited market potential. By not carrying specific inventory (not to mention not carrying any inventory at all), unlike most companies, eBay allows its business to in effect sell anything -- anything, that is, that the public wishes to sell. Therefore, the size of the world market for its business is difficult to fathom. Just as importantly, as eBay's market size reaches ever-long toward infinity (as the world arrives online and as our population grows), eBay's costs to run its business will (eventually) always shrink ever closer to zero as a percentage of sales.
This paradigm -- that of the business's potential size moving to infinity while its costs shrink toward zero, relatively -- makes the company the most attractive long-term Rule Breaker that I know. Now add eBay's dominance. Yahoo! (Nasdaq: YHOO) and Amazon follow eBay as numbers 2 and 3 in the person-to-person online auction industry. However, recent auction completion rates at the two largest competitors are estimated to be only 11% and 14%, respectively, which compares to 65% at eBay. Plus, eBay has three times the items for auction as Yahoo and at least six times as many as Amazon.
eBay is my favorite Rule Breaker. It presents high risk, but I believe that it has the potential to compound at a rate well above the S&P 500's average return over the next 10 to 15 years.
What is your favorite Rule Breaker? If you have a favorite and at least five minutes to spare, please post your favorite Rule Breaker company and its ticker symbol on the Rule Breaker message board. Also, please post an explanation as to why it's your favorite Rule Breaker. Your thoughts can be as brief as the explanation above (we all must do our own homework, after all), or as long as War and Peace. For additional Foolishness, please share your favorite vacation spot and why.
So, on the Rule Breaker Companies board, please post:
1. Your favorite Rule Breaker company and its ticker symbol
2. Why it is your favorite Rule Breaker
3. Your favorite vacation spot and why
Please note: You may not be sure your favorite company is a Rule Breaker yet. That's still Foolish! Post it as a potential Rule Breaker and state why you believe in its potential. In the next Rule Breaker column that I write, we'll run down the complete list of companies that you post and see what we have.

Cuerda Sor Juana
Precio: $20.00
Each of these hand-wound cords is handmade by Isabela and her family in San Juan Chamula, Chiapas. The vibrant color combinations are a testament to the keen eye and playfulness of mayan designers. Its uses are bound only by your imagination: a curtain tie-back, funky belt, necklace, suitcase-marker, gift-wrap tie... we could go on, but love to see what you come up with! This one is named after Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, 17th century writer and women's rights activist.
Each cord varies slightly in length (approx. 5 to 6ft long).

} | 347 | Why Yes, My Ferrari Is Made Of Aluminum — Why Do You Ask?
This may not be a real Ferrari, but no matter — it's still one of the most gorgeous things we've ever seen. Pontoon-fendered 250 Testarossa body, you had us at hello.
Testarossa, the old man said, and he was not speaking of the woman's hair. She flew through the town center, jumped into the passenger seat, and the car took off. It was one of those Sicilian afternoons where the sun turns the trees to gold and the young men come out to play with their racing cars. He had no idea what she was doing in the Ferrari, nor why her scarf was wrapped so tightly around her neck, nor why the car's twelve sounded so lean on startup. He did not care. She had beautiful skin, the car was a color he had only seen in dreams, and her laugh made him remember a time when his knees did not feel like a pair of rusty hinges. He raised his glass. "It is good," he thought, taking a sip, "to be young and go very fast."
Yeah, so we're romantics. And yeah, we wrote the bit above for absolutely no reason whatsoever. And yeah, when we walked across the green at Pebble Beach last year and saw a handful of 250 TRs just sitting there, minding their own, we went a little weak in the knees.
Is this a real 250? As far as we can tell, no — the proportions seem a little off and some of the details give us pause — but that's irrelevant. Ferrari hotness is Ferrari hotness is Ferrari hotness. One of these days, we're going to find a cheap English wheel, buy a bunch of aluminum, and go to town. We will teach ourselves to produce stuff like this, and we will hang what we produce on the wall. It will not sound like this:
...but it might look something like it. And that will be enough. Viva!

Discussion in 'The Watercooler' started by Steely, Jun 22, 2009.

I think I have had too much damage to my soul to ever love again. I really thought I could overcome this. I truly believed that somehow I would be able to love in a healthy way. But I believe I am wrong. I truly believe that I am going to have to stay inside my cocoon, protected from others, in order to function, forever.
Matthew is here visiting, and he is doing amazingly well. Yet I can barely breathe when I am around him. I feel like I am going to crawl out of my skin around him. I am deathly afraid it is all going to go South, and I feel frozen. I don't even feel like I can hug him, or relax and chill with him. And I am heartbroken.
A guy asked me out the other night, and we had a truly wonderful time. Holding hands, laughing. I emailed him the next day to say I had a nice time - and he never emailed me back. I know what that means. I know. And yet I so desperately, horribly wanted a relationship with someone. I cannot go through this with someone else. My heart cannot be broken ever again, or I think I will die. And I mean that.
I have been in counseling for 6 years - I have stopped since there are not any counselor in the town I live in. But I don't think it matters. I really don't. It is what it is. I am so deathly afraid of being hurt that I cannot function normally. Losing my sister, and Matt going off the deep end both last year, sealed it. I just know I cannot put myself out there again - but yet I so desperately want that intimacy. I want a normal life. The only way I can function right now is to work 12 hours a day, and come home and drink wine. That is so sad. And I know it.
And Matthew. How I LOVE him. I adore him. He is my life. Yet I am scared of him. Scared to the core. There is a part of me that hates him for what he did to me these last 18 years. And that is a horrible thing to say. I feel like he has turned my motherly love into sheet metal - and I am raw and ragged now. I want to be loving and sweet, but I am so scared and edge, that I am critical and angry. It makes me ill.
I want to have fun with him, and laugh, and instead I am hollow and sick. And that one feeling compounds the rest of things to the degree that I feel like I cannot function. I feel like I have been robbed of my ability to be a true mom. And by many failed relationships, I have been robbed from the ability to ever be a true mate. And by my sister dying I was robbed my closest friend that I will ever have, ever.
Thank you so much for letting me vent. I had to tell someone. I come on the board every day and want to respond to everyone, and I get such PTSD flashbacks that I feel like vomiting. So I am very, very sorry I have not been there more for you all. I still think of you everyday, and always pray for all of you and your kids.
And please do not tell me to get help - because I have been in and out of counseling my whole, entire life. I am on the 30 mg of Lexapro and Xanax. Therapy or different medications is not going to make this better. It is simply my life. And I have to accept it. However, I would like your ideas, support, and encourgagment - and most importantly your stories of how you have survived and made it to the other side of happiness.

Honey, it may get better. It is okay to focus on you for now. It is normal to have PTSD around Matt. He did some awful things to you. And H's death was also traumatic (add in dealing with your parents about it). It is okay to pull back a bit from others. If you don't feel like you are ready to risk it again, there is no law that says you have to. Just take the time you need. Maybe it is a year, maybe its 5 years. You will know when you have recovered. You will recover but it takes time, often a lot of time.
And you will always have us on this board.
3. Fran

I don't know if I have anything to offer you that willl help. I'm just sending a hug.
I do know that the will to survive and live is strong in us mere mortals so that when you think you are down and out, that life force makes us keep trying to reach for that happiness.
I hope you find your inner peace and start to like yourself and your life whatever it may be.
4. Star*
I will tell you the same thing I told my son who has been through more hell on earth than most kids I know. It took YEARS for you to be like you are. It will take YEARS for you to repair yourself and your psyche. If you are in, or have been in counseling that you felt did not help? Then you need to keep trying to seek out a person to help you fix yourself. You've been to enough counselors to know that if this one doesn't click with you - you need to find another one you can build trust with. You didn't get like this overnight - you're not going to be repaired overnight or in six months, or even six years. Trauma needs to be addressed with a professional you TRUST. The behaviors you are describing regarding Matt, your male friend? Are serious enough that they are impairing your lifestyle.
So, when you tell me NOT to suggest counseling - it limits my ability to suggest things that I think you could benefit from like EMDR therapy which is a faster, more intense type of psychotherapy that works IF YOU LET IT.
I'm sorry friend, I care too much about you to lie and tell you "Gosh Steely there IS a quick fix to your problems I'm just not going to tell you, or I could say well, you know if you just did EVERYTHING like I did you'd be better."...and then tell you what I did. I wish it were that simple. All I can tell you for certain is that the healing of your own soul lies within you, but you have to be able to trust at least ONE other person just enough that is a professional to get you to open up and start discussing your fears.
I guess I could tell you everything that I've lived through, and done and why - but most of the horrific stuff and trauma I've lived through were so ridiculous I'm not sure I even want to revisit it since I started to heal. I can tell you that when you shut down, shut out suggestions you limit yourself on the right type of healing that COULD make a difference in your life. On the other hand if you've already blocked out therapy as a way to help you or this EMDR I'm talking about - that's just one more brick in your wall you will have to work through to get well.
There are unfortunately no quick fixes or no lives you can parallel yours to that will make your life right again. I know - I tried. I did therapy with a 1/2 dozen people for over six years and I was so unwilling to give it one more chance with this last guy. At the thought of sounding redundant - I really think you should check in to this EMDR therapy. It was simple, painless...and gave me the tools to overcome a lot of my baggage. It was ALSO TONS better than sitting there listening to...."And what do YOU think about that?" I HATE THAT TYPE OF PSYCHO THERAPY. It's useless.
EMDR on the other hand - taught me how to relive my life with a safety net in place and ME in control. Worked MUCH better - and I even had a chuckle or two once I got the remote control in MY hands.
Hugs -
Sorry not what you wanted to hear - but it's all I have to give.

I'm really sorry that you are feeling this way. I don't have any suggestions other than maybe try to find a church, where you can get some counseling from the pastor....some pastors offer that.
I wish I had some comforting words or more advice.

My heart breaks for you, my dear.
I wish I had answers.
I may just be an IP address on a computer screen, but behind those digital signals is a person who really does care.
Some days, all you can do is put one foot in front of the next. Sometimes that is all you can do. If work is what you need now, then work.
Try to have faith that there is more out there for you. Even if you aren't sure you beleive it, at least try to tell yourself.
Hugs, girl.

Oh, sweetie, I can feel the pain and agony coming through in your words. It is so hard when you feel so terribly broken inside.
I know the feelings you are describing very well. I wish I could point you to some magic cure but I can't. Time is the only thing that will really help. Taking a break from therapy in the traditional sense may be exactly what you need. Do you have a pet that helps? If not, would you be open to getting one? There is very little like a dog or cat or horse to help us heal.
I can remember how scared and terrified i was of males as a teen. My dad and gfgbro fought so much, and gfgbro was so abusive when no one else was around, that I froze up inside.
Then our cat ran away. Friends gave me a wonderful gray cat named Squish (for the kneading she did with her paws). She spent so many hours in my arms up close to me while I cried or shook in fear and pain. Without her I would have killed myself before I finished high school. Not joking about it.
Even with-o formal training to be a therapy pet, our furbabies are such a wonderful source of healing and connection. If you don't have one, or one that will snuggle/cuddle with you, then you might consider getting one. It can't be more expensive than weekly therapy sessions.
Continue to journal your feelings as you can. Even writing letters you never send can help.
It has all been so recent and so traumatic for you. Having Matt with you after such a terrifying period of time is bound to cause panic attacks and major PTSD. Be very gentle with yourself. think of yourself as a very delicate Faberge egg. You are that valuable (even more than that actually) and even more fragile. Treat yourself with the kind of true respect and gentleness that you would treat a newborn child. You are that special, that precious, and right now that fragile.
Give yourself permission to feel whatever you feel. And to express it. I can remember giving myself 30 minutes to cry every few days. I hate to cry, but I was so broken that I needed it. I would hole up and sob. Letting it out made me see that it wasn't as scary as I thought it would be.
Please know that if you ignore everything I said but know that I care - it is fine. As long as you remember I truly care, as do many others here, you can ignore all the things we tell you. Take what can help and ignore us on the rest.
I hope the xanax can help you, same with the other medications. Be careful with the wine, but you already know that.
Love you big bunches! Tell Matt I am glad he is doing better.

Star is right Steely. You didn't get to be this traumatized over nite, nor will you heal over nite. The point is that you're trying. You will get there eventually. Doesn't mean you won't guard your heart, cuz I still do to some extent, but you will find healing.

Steely, I didn't read any of the other responses. I didn't want to distort my own view, so if I repeat what anyone else said, I am sorry.
Here goes:
Life has never been easy for me. I was born to parents who were just kids themselves, and my birth did irreparable evidence to their lives. They were never able to be the people they could have been had I not come along. I lived with my grandparents from the time I was about 10---and although they loved me, I always felt like I was a burden. They had raised their children, and then because of my parents inability to grow up and act like adults, I felt like they "had" to take me.
I married young, in a bar, to a very abusive (verbally and physically) man. I stayed there because I thought I deserved it. I had made my bed hard, so I forced myself to lie in it. Until I had enough.
I married husband shortly after I came back to town. My divorce was final in Oct., I met him in May, and we married in August. Although I've never regretted that choice, it has brought me pain that almost destroyed me. His drug addiction has caused him to do things that ripped pieces of me away. And that ability to trust is completely gone.
But, despite all of the horrible things that I have lived with, I go on. I go on because some part of me knows that life is good. For a very long time---I didn't socialize at all. I went to work, I pasted a smile on my face, I came home and dealt with an out of control difficult child and a drug addicted husband, and I tried to stay in control. I didn't think I was worthy of friendship---I had nothing to offer anyone. I was numb, blank, frozen inside.
In the past few years, I have slowly come back to me. I recently got on facebook---and honestly, it has forced me to reconnect with friends from the past. I am living again after years of just existing.
This site has helped a lot. I have learned so much. So has reading. Love is a Choice, Happiness is a Choice, The Secret, The Purpose Driven Life, Seven Habits: each of these books helped me tremendously.
What I think I've finally realized is that my happiness, my joy, comes from inside of me. It was there, for years, buried beneath the damage that I had experienced. There are still days I have to force myself to be positive, but it gets easier with each passing day.
I know that your life is going to get better. Trust in that.

You get to the other side and find happiness with baby steps. Teeny tiny baby steps.
Being in a relationship, healing your relationship with your son, grieving the lost of your sister and best friend - those are big, big things. And that's not where you start.
That may sound contrary to what will bring you happiness, but you have to start with the smallest of things. And work your way up.
You have to get down to the very basics of existence and rebuild.

I don't have any big answers for you but I do know that, after all you've been through, there are no quick fixes, professional or not. They say time heals all wounds. I'm not sure it heals them but in time we do develop enough scar tissue to get on with our lives and function.
With Matt, you have a right to feel worried. I have to admit that, even when my two adult sons are functioning well, there is a part of me that is waiting for the other shoe to drop. That is natural. He is who he is. He will do what he will do. You can choose to worry about it and blame yourself or you can choose to move on. Easy for me to say, I know.
As far as finding a significant other, I really believe that until we love ourselves, it is impossible for somebody else to love us. A real love does not fill the holes we have in our soul; they complement what is already there.
You have had to deal with Matt's issues, your sister's loss, a major move, health issues, and lots of other stuff. That is enough to kill most people but you are still here fighting. You are strong but even the strongest of us can be laid low at times. Don't lose faith. It will get better.
Working 12 hours a day may be OK right now; it gives you a focus. I hope that is not still the sum total of your life in a year but for now, it keeps you going.
As far as wanting a "normal life" - I'm not sure anybody has that, and the people who do are probably bored silly. Sometimes the best you can do is just take the next breath and put one foot in front of the other. As long as you keep going, there is hope. Don't give up. When things are really down, just look up as the only direction you can go. Things do improve, even though at times it feels like it goes on forever. Try to enjoy the little things (the sunset; a flower; the funny customer). The bigger things will follow eventually.
Good luck.

I also do not have much to add. Sending good thougts.
Perhaps this is different or the same. I fled to a dv shelter when difficult child 2 was 10 days old. That was lots of years ago. I right now am finally feeling some relief from that haze. And while a few areas of my life are full of love, others take time..... but please know.................with time, change comes and I believe it will be a good change!

I am so very sorry. To a certain extent, not exactly the same, but there is certainly a thread of familiarity, I have felt your pain. I was badly abused by my father and have experienced many losses during my lifetime including the early and gruesome death of my beloved mother. I almost died giving birth to my son and so I adopted a daughter, and ended up with a difficult child child who has bipolar illness. I also experienced a very difficult loss in my love life, which involved his cheating...it made me feel like dirt.
HOWEVER, there is light at the end of this tunnel. It took a LONG time and I still struggle, but today, it's a different world for me.
For one thing...right off the top...who is to say exactly why this person didn't call you back. Sure, it's possible he didn't have a strong interest in you. However, it's also possible that something is going on in HIS life. Something that has NOTHING to do with you AT ALL. And, if he is not interested all that much in you, SO WHAT? Look at the grains in of sand at the ocean. That's how many men are out there. Just get your shovel and pick up another batch.
Therapy, good books, tapes and action (hard work), has made all the difference in the world for me.
I agree with the others, each of us (you toooooo) deserves to feel joy in this world. Sure, sometimes life hands us hardships, but deep down in your core, you need to know your inner value.
To a large extent...you DO have to accept certain things. For example, that your son has a diagnosis. "It is what it is." Get him some help, but since he is 18...it is time to step back.
Develop meaningful friendships elsewhere. Good friends, other relatives...go exploring.
Counseling....I went through two or three, before I found one that I really liked. AND husband and I have seen off and on again a therapist, even though we get along very well. Why? "cause we knew raising a difficult child was sooooo very difficult. Therapy has helped us sooooo much.
Also, although I have not tried it myself, I have a friend who did EMDR therapy...and it worked wonders for him.
Go to the library...check out books on self esteem...honestly, it is so helpful.
If you are not taking care of your body, please do so as best as you are able. Eat healthfully (at least more often than not), get in some exercise, at least take a multi vitamin. Just do the basics. For a LOOOONG time, I only went to the gym Tues and Thurs. Those were my exercise days, come hexx or high water. AND guess what? It really helped me. Helped me lose weight, helped to boost my self esteem, helped me get healthier both physically and emotionally. Just two hours a week....wow!
Put one foot in front of the other....
Consider going back to therapy. Consider a little exercise. Consider going to the library/amazon/book store and getting a book on self esteem. I also like the idea of journaling. Stay involved with people...especially people who have your best interest at heart...who make you want to SMILE!
Also...husband and I have gone to a few Family Anonymous Meetings and have found them to be very helpful. Read the Serenity Prayer. It is not easy, but life gets better when you accept certain things and trust that certain things are out of your hand.
Wishing you well.

The others are right this will take time. You have been through so much hurt, it is understandable that you would worry about being hurt again. Be gentle with yourself. Know that we love you and care about you. Each day you and Matt are in my prayers.

Steely! I wanted to answer before I went to bed (it's been a tough couple of months) so I'm sorry if this seems scattered.
You've been running on full tilt for 18+ years. All of a sudden, it slows down and you don't know what to do.
You've got ptsd from Matty and now you're having some "I love him so much, so why do I cringe when I see him" thoughts. NATURAL!
Your sister was stolen from you. There are no clear answers so you feel sad, depressed and lonely. NATURAL!
You've been running like a nut, finally meet a nice guy that doesn't call you back - WTH? So now you're feeling like you're never going to put yourself out there again. NATURAL!!!
First: give yourself some time to experience your feelings. You haven't had that opportunity in 18+ years. You've always been in "reactive" mode. For the first time, you can actually sit back and "feel". Consider it a minor case of arrested development. Most grown-ups get to still learn & process feelings, but you've been putting these feelings away in forever and a day!
Second: I can see where H was your sister, your best friend and confidant and always there. But (and I'm not criticizing!) sometimes when we choose a sister or brother to be our best friends, we forget how to develope trusting relationship with others. Go slow. Meet a friend. Join some type of social group that brings in your interests. You'll make a bond with someone with the same interests.
Third: The problem with e-mail relationships is that we can create this person and present it to others without ever meeting them. Then when we do, it's too hard to "stay the same". Bottom line: You need to meet these guys, no matter how nice they seem to be, as potential friends. No more no less.
Relax, it'll all come into focus!!!

I think you are over-thinking this. Start with something small, and see what you love in it. You'll find other things you love. I'm not sure about Texas, but here I love flowers and hummingbirds. You can't love big if you don't love small.
Big hugs....

I am impressed with how aware of yourself you are. You know what you are feeling (or not feeling) and can describe it. Have you ever journaled?
I think it is a good sign that you can articulate how you feel. That means you can pick one thing and work on making it better. Even if it is leaving work an hour earlier every day for a week.

ANother thing that came to mind when I was thinking about you last night was what my therapist told me about 2 months AFTER Dude had left at age 16 for that group home. ALL OF A SUDDEN......I had NO stress.
I thought and said "Well HOW can having NO stress be a bad thing?" and the doctor said that when you live in a perpetual state of chaos then have none? Your body will CREATE chaos. Which I found absolutely absurd. Create chaos? Why would you do that? Why would you dredge up things that were past? WHY would any sane person not LOVE peace?
And he told me that our bodies get so used to the stress/chaos/struggle it becomes very much like a drug in as much as we start to crave the chaos. Without it we feel empty - like things in our life have stopped that we're no longer necessary - and everyone needs to be needed.
I thought it was a weird statement to make but we started doing exercises to make me aware of things that I was doing to myself sort of a self-sabotage if you will - and it was almost too odd for words. I didn't even KNOW I was doing it. Once I learned the signs of doing it? I was able to stop, and redirect my thoughts to more pleasant things.
This is what the beauty of EMDR therapy can do. I know you're probably sitting there going "I told you don't suggest therapy I'm done." and if you are fine, but this is the only way I know to help when someone said "I don't feel fixable." I agree with Busywend that it takes a LOT for someone to know and be as insightful as you - but you also have to leave the door open for healing. If you don't then in a way you are saying "I need X, but it can't be this, this or this." Don't ever narrow your options for healing.
And you know what else......for all the quacks and quackers I saw over the years it made me furious that people who told their college "I want to help people get well in their mind." were chewing gum, staring at their text messages on their cell phones, looking out the window, doodling on a note pad - making notes about their own life when I was irreparably damaged. I wanted them to DO SOMETHING....I was there, I was trying I was giving it my all to get better for myself, my life, my child....my relationships and here they were getting paid - and not paying attention. Heck if that's what I wanted I would have stayed married. Know what I mean??
So don't discount the entire carton of eggs just for a few bad ones. I finally got lucky and found a doctor that really cared if I got better mentally. Some times it only takes one person to say I really care that you get better mentally - and mean it, but YOU have to care too. IN caring you should allow yourself all the options that are available. | https://www.conductdisorders.com/community/threads/i-am-irreparably-damaged.26389/ | robots: classic

Deloitte Interview Experience - Hitech city Madhapur 14 May 2014
Hey guys, I attended deloitte interview on 14 may 2014, it was an online test conducted by aspiring minds, there were about 74 questions, 25 English, 25 quantitative aptitude, 24 logical reasoning. I was through to the second round. which was conducted on 4th june 2014, it was conducted by cocubes, there were 30 questions based on java(I applied for java post(System Engineer)). Some of them were from ejb, and some input output questions like:
class a
S.o.p("const a");
new a();
class b{
psvm(String []arg)
a aa=new a();
what is the output?
And some theoretical questions like "Which of the following sorts elements in order"
a.arraylist b.treeset c. Linkedlist
In the first round there were several hundreds of people where they filtered to 30
in the second round there were about 20 students.
The third round was technical hr 1.
It doesn't go well with me when an interviewer is a female. And it exactly happened she was testing the basics of java in depth , The heat was linearly rising to the extent I couldn't bear.
The first question was:
What is inheritance-it went well.
What is a class- it went well.
What is an interface- it went well.
What is the difference between a class and an interface-well.
Now she turned on the heat.
She gave me a program:
class deloittetax
void tax()
class deloittecon extends deloittetax
void tax()
class deloitte
psvm(Strin [] arg)
deloittecon dc=new deloittetax();
I remember this program very well, it ruined my job.
This is where I fell, she asked me what does it print?
I didn't give a second thought whether the given program is true(does it compile). And there I was mistaken. I wish I could go back in time and change my answer.
By using the above program she was testing me on downcasting, polymorphism, overriding.
and the other questions which were asked were
Life cycle of a JSP, Servlet, forwarding form jsp to servlet.
She asked me about searching and sorting algorithms. and asked me to write a program.
The interview was over and my name wasn't there in the shortlists, as the answers weren't there in my brain.
Be thorough with all the topics irrespective of the position ie java .net blah ..
And most important two things that I've learnt from the interview:
1. BE completely thorough in BASICS.
I hope this might be helpful to you in getting a job.

} | 879 | Why the 'Outlander' Season 4 Premiere Revisited a Past Trauma
"We knew that this was one of the most important scenes even though it wasn't necessary for the plot," 'Outlander' executive producer Toni Graphia tells The Hollywood Reporter.
Courtesy of STARZ
[Warning: this story contains spoilers from Sunday's season four premiere of Outlander.]
Outlander finally planted its roots in America, but the Starz time-traveling drama hit the pause button on the action to revisit past trauma in a jam-packed season four opener.
Sunday's saw Jamie (Sam Heughan) and Claire (Caitriona Balfe) find both happiness and danger in the colonies as they began their new lives free from political persecution. From saying goodbye to one of their friends who was hanged to helping their future nemesis Stephen Bonnett (Ed Speleers) escape the gallows himself before getting robbed by him, it was an eventful few days for the couple. But it was a much quieter moment that stood out as the highlight of the hour as Jamie helped his nephew Young Ian (John Bell) work through the trauma he suffered at the end of season three.
While the teen was able to escape from Geillis (Lotte Verbeek) in Jamaica thanks to Claire and Jamie, he didn't leave the island unscathed. When digging a grave for their fallen friend triggered Ian's PTSD in the premiere, viewers were reminded that the older woman had raped him at the end of last season. Jamie then guided Young Ian into a makeshift therapy session in which he opened up about his own experience with sexual assault from season one. The uncle and nephew spent a good portion of time having a heart-to-heart about their similar experiences, unpacking both Jamie's and Ian's complicated feelings of guilt and shame about the incidents.
In a series that constantly subverts assumptions about issues like sexual assault by making men the victims more than women — unlike most period pieces in pop culture — Outlander continues to pave the way for needed conversations. That's why the producers chose to dedicate a sizable portion of precious premiere airtime to revisiting a scene from last season.
"That is definitely one of the most important scenes in the premiere," executive producer Toni Graphia tells The Hollywood Reporter. "After what happened last year with Young Ian and what he went through with Geillis, being held captive, she's abusing young boys … Young Ian got caught up in her web and suffers trauma at her hands. We knew that we had to address that this season, just as when we addressed what Jamie went through, his sexual trauma at the end of season one.
"We carried that over to show him having to deal with it as people do in real life. Even though this is television, we wanted to be responsible."
Especially since Ian was so young when he was assaulted, Graphia knew the series couldn't just move on without remarking on how he's been dealing with his trauma.
"We really wanted to have a scene where we showed that Ian is still suffering PTSD from what happened to him, and that one of the only people in the world that could understand it, that he could talk to about it, would be his uncle, because he's been through it too," Graphia says. "Ian has been carrying guilt over it and trying to reconcile it in his head, blaming himself as a lot of victims [of sexual assault] unfortunately do. So when he confides in Jamie, he finds solace in the fact that Jamie has dealt with a similar thing and is able to impart some words of wisdom."
Jamie helped Ian realize that the blame does not fall on him and helped his nephew take a massive step forward in emotionally healing from the assault. "We knew that this was one of the most important scenes even though it wasn't necessary for the plot," Graphia says. "That's what we like about Outlander: We don't just move plot forward, we move character forward. This was very important for Young Ian's growth. His arc this season is wrestling with what he's been through, which is a lot for a young person. This is a very important step on the road to becoming the man he will eventually be."
And even though the topic of sexual assault has never been more present in the #MeToo era, Graphia maintains that the producers didn't let the national conversation color the way they portrayed Ian's journey.
"While we're certainly aware and appreciate the climate of change that’s going on in today's world, we don't consciously plan or tailor anything to today's world," she says. "We recognize that we have a responsibility, but we really only endeavor to stay true to our characters and what they've been through. The drama speaks for itself in that the fact that these kinds of things were going on even 200 years ago. Rape and sexual trauma was rampant back then, and things happened to both women and men. This shines a light on it, and I think it does add to today's conversation to show that this has been going on for forever."
She pauses, then adds, "But we don't sit around saying, 'Hey, let's come up with a story about sexual trauma.' We are following the books. This happened in the books. We chose to organically carry on this story arc in this season because of its importance." | https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/outlander-season-4-premiere-explained-jamie-young-ians-trauma-1157960 | isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2019-39

Advice from CNN
2. Don't use an ambulance unless you really need it.
Amen. What more can I say?
4. Don't get angry, and don't lie.
Advice they should have given, but did not:
6. Pick the right time to go to the ER
7. Pain is your priority, not ours.
8. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.
9. Be realistic, and be understanding
10. Ask a lot of questions.
1. About number 2: My husband had neighbors take him to the E.R. two different times. He had a heart problem, but it wasn't diagnosed until two years later. We "decided" it was panic attacks.
After open heart surgery, his cardiologist told him to ALWAYS call an ambulance for chest pains, dizziness, or anything that might be heart-related, because he might need to be resuscitated. That would keep him alive on the way to the hospital.
Sometimes it's hard to know whether you need an ambulance or not.
Just my two cents.
2. Old EMT saying -- Air goes in and out, blood goes round and round, any variation on this is a bad thing.
Blood all over the floor; might be a heart attack; some reason that breathing isn't going well... these are fair, just, and reasonable causes to call an ambulance.
There are many others, but the heart and lungs are high-priority organs.
Stubbed toes, hang-nails; these are NOT.
OH, and so y'all don't get upset or grumpy... I HAVE SEEN PEOPLE DO THIS. My husband (a paramedic) got called at 3:30 in the morning to a man who wanted a band-aid.
Can you say more? I can't think of a way to do this that doesn't shame the speaker publicly or otherwise make them resentful.
4. House Whisperer1/17/2008 6:48 PM
The CNN article was written by an imbecile who did no research. The majority of those recommendations are entirely self-defeating.
Sorry, but the advice given on this one wasn't bad. There may be a fine line between advocating for yourself or dependent and just being selfish in terms of trying to get ahead in the line. But, as someone that has spent hours upon hours navigating hospitals and clinics, I know that often doctors/nurses/administrators/receptionists/etc do what they do for no other reason than it is what is easiest for them. Or because it is just how they usually do something. Sometimes you have to "advocate" for yourself or someone else. And sometimes "advocate" means be angry and express your anger.
Now, specifically in the context of hurrying up an ER visit, you are probably spot on. Even knowing you very well though, I can't help but bristle at the tone of your response on this one. It is probably my emotional baggage and anger, but I hate it when doctors or others put on their condescending tone over length of wait or other comfort issues that sometimes can be accommodated and make a huge difference in the emotional well-being of the patient.
6. Luke,
I see we are on the same page here, but it's worth clarifying that I intended this advice/commentary to be applicable in the context of the ER waiting room, and the concept of triage in particular. Certainly I would not extrapolate this to more general medical settings, or to decision-making in terms of detailed decisions of what care will be provided and how it will be provided. That's a whole nother ball of wax (and a good time to address the idea of the therapeutic alliance).
And again, triage nurses do make mistakes. I remember when I brought my post-partum wife into an ER with a kidney infection and a temp of 105. We sat patiently in the waiting room until she began to faint, and then I got up and told the triage nurse that we needed a bed immediately. So I'm not opposed to advocacy, but in the right measure and the right time...
7. Great post!
When I'm the triage nurse and a patient complains about being not brought back quickly enough, and the usual speech about "we see heart attacks and strokes and things first" doesn't work, and sending the patient to the patient relations person doesn't work, I have NO problem calling the nursing supervisor. Most of them reiterate exactly what I've told them and are able to see if there are any other alternatives, leaving me free to do my job.
8. A trick I learned years ago when patients started complaining about the wait..I always redid their vitals without complaint.
This seemed on the whole to settle them.
Sometimes we forget as people who live in hospitals that other people view hospitals as the place people die in. This makes them scared as they do not want to be one of the dead people. Rechecking their vitals and telling them they are hanging in there settles their fear.
I also compliment patients for waiting and I let them know what is going on. If we have real emergencies I tell the waiting room and let them know it's all hands on deck in the back for a bit until we get things settled down.
If you ignore people, don't let them know what is going on and refuse to see their fear ? Well, then you get waiting rooms that are out of control.
If after all that people are still harassing? I call in the management and let it be their problem.
9. Last time I was in the emergency room, one of the workers there advised me to leave, and call an ambulance. He said that you should never come in on your own because the ambulance patients always get priority.
Sorry, but writing in pain on the floor IS an emergency, and no one should have to wait hours to get pain relief. What's the danger of pain relief anyway?
What's your feeling about being made to lie on the floor when there are available beds? I'm thinking of lodging a complaint with the hospital, but an unsure if I'm being unreasonable.
I wasn't seen for about five hours, and I was on the floor in my own vomit for all of it. BTW: my diagnoses ended up being an ovarian tortion - not pleasant. Is that not enough of an emergency to at least warrant a bed?
10. Pain is not an emergency. Pain can be a signal for an emergency, but pain, by itself, will not kill you. The jobs of everyone in the ER are to do these things, in this order.
1) Make sure nobody dies
2) Make sure nobody has some sort of serious complication that will result in death in the near future
3) Make sure nobody gets some sort of permanent damage
4) Make sure nobody gets temporary damage
5) Make sure nobody has intolerable pain.
11. Very good post. I do agree with most of what you say here. When people are sick, or hurting, etc. they tend to forget that the ER staff are humans too, and as such they cannot perform miracles. Test results take time, the beds are all full, the staff have as many patients as they can safely care for currently, etc.
I have been in the unfortunate situation as to require the ER services at my local major metropolitan area on multiple occasions, and as a result have learned many lessons. I am a multiple organ recipient (liver, kidney, pancreas, and small intestine). My doctors and I have had to resort to using the ER on occasion to admit me to the hospital after hours (hospital requirement), and it is usually not a pleasant experience for either the staff or myself. At least most of the time now, when I go in, they have been warned ahead of time that I am on my way, so I get right back to a bed, and we usually always agree that I'm as afraid of them as they are of me.
So some of the lessons I've learned is that yes, for people with major chronic medical issues, absolutely DO call your personal physician. The ER staff needs to know that someone is coming in with problems not normally encountered on a daily basis. And no, I will never call an ambulance unless I am passed out because, well, they scare me too, and they have absolutely no idea how to help me as opposed to my immediate family who very likely does.
But there are also things that the staff needs to know. First off, I have lived for 17 years with a chronic medical condition, the last 7 1/2 with my "after market parts", so I know ALOT about my condition and what is needed to get me through whatever crises that has brought me in, so listen to what I have to say, it could save both of us time and trouble. Second, don't treat me like I'm a junky on a bad trip needing a fix when all I'm asking for is saline with bicarbonate because I've been excreting body fluids out both ends of my new intestine so quickly that I am acidic, I know when my CO2 has dropped to just barely above a 10, and waiting 30 minutes for the blood test can be bad. I'm just trying to stay alive and avert a crises. Thirdly, if someone comes in with a known medical condition that you have no experience with, or have no clue how to treat, PLEASE get someone who does. I learned the hard way on more than one occasion that I should ALWAYS question the treatment of a physician I don't know before the treatment is started, and that I can and will refuse treatment if I feel that I need to until my own physician either lets me know that he agrees with said treatment, or he writes the order himself. So even if you think you know the best treatment because you have seen something similar, please do me a favor and make sure you're right first (and be prepared to defend your decision, many of us have educated ourselves on our conditions and have no problem with questioning your judgment). I have run across many hospital staff and physicians that think they know how to treat transplant patients, but have never seen (and in some cases never even heard of) someone with an intestinal transplant. And unfortunately an intestinal transplant is an altogether
different beast. For me, there is no such thing as a "simple" belly ache because I have adhesions and narrowings that get blocked, and mild dehydration can cause rejection that doesn't show up until the intestine is in full rejection and cannot be saved.
So please forgive those of us with real chronic medical issues, we have learned many things the hard way, and experienced too much unnecessary hardship because of physicians and staff at other times. And don't get upset with us if we question decisions and orders. Because for me, personally, I'm just trying to stay alive.
Thank you for allowing me to express my opinion as a patient:) | http://allbleedingstops.blogspot.com/2008/01/advice-from-cnn.html?showComment=1201057500000 | robots: classic

- - Unable to find things right in front of you an early sign? (
Luau 05-01-2012 06:32 AM
Just a curiosity question. Is loosing something or unable to find something directly in front of you and in plain sight a sign?
This has been happening with increasing frequency, several times an evening. e.g. last evening in the kitchen. I was cleaning up; my lovely wife, L, was just hanging around.
L: Where are the peanuts?
Me: They are in the pantry (motioning to the pantry right next to her)
L: (opens the pantry, looks) Where are they? They are not there.
Me: The bag of peanuts is on the middle shelf, right in the middle and front.
L: They are NOT there!
Me: Your hand is almost resting on them. I can see them from across the room.
L: (getting a bit testy) They are NOT there! You find them.
Me: (walked across the room as delicately as i could, and got the bag of peanuts out) you might not recognize the bag. Seems they changed the color of the bag since the last time we bought them.
Sigh.... (the bag color has not changed. there is no new bag. it's the exact same bag for the last month, just less peanuts in the bag now).
ninamarc 05-01-2012 08:59 AM
Re: Unable to find things right in front of you an early sign?
Like you, I analyzed everything my FIL did wrong or funny.
The fact is she does not recognize or remember where the peanuts are. The details are not crucial. The fact is she forgot the details.
It is common that she would forget the details. In fact, she may buy more if she cannot find it.
It is common as the TV AD show: The guy keeps buying milk or lemons.
Face it, she has something wrong in her memory. Please talk to her doctor ASAP.
For sure you need to get into the trick mode now to remove her car so she does not drive like that for 2 or 3 hours again and got lost! It would be very dangerous for her. At times the patients with Alzheimer's got lost and are found to be dead in the winter. I heard a few cases like that here in Canada.
You need to act now. There are 2 kinds of tricks:
The first kind is when she is still smart: At this point, she is no longer clear about the laws or the rules in the society even though she can talk very well and know what she wants. Make up something or quote something real from the laws. My FIL refused to hire a caregiver until we told him the neighbor will sue us and told the social worker to take him away. (The neighbor did threaten us once because my FIL fell and had taken too much pain killer. So my husband flew there the next day.)
Say anything at all. Tell her the authority does not allow 6 dogs, tell her the DMV does not allow such drive. Tell her the check up is for her cancer (a lie) and tell her the sons will have the dogs so she is not worried too much about the dogs. (A lie too.)
The second kind is when she no longer remembers lots of things. You can just use the fact that she forgot and take away the dogs. She may forget the dogs' names and etc. one day. She could get worse in her memory in 6 months or 1 year.
My FIL remembered about his memory issue and DMV issue in 2006, but in 2007 he totally forgot what happened to the license and car. We donated the car behind his back as the car was broken anyway.
You really have to start some tricks before it is too late.
Since this happened, has it occurred to you that she may get another dog because she forgot that she had 5 dogs already at the moment?
I suggest that she needs a part-time caregiver next to her so she is not alone.
Take care,
EagleRiverDee 05-01-2012 11:17 AM
I don't know if it's an early sign, but can tell you that you're not alone. Lately I go looking for things and they will be right in front of me. Right where I'm looking. And I don't see them. It's very disconcerting. I'll ask my DH if he's seen the blue cup we use to feed the dogs with. And he'll look at me like I'm insane and say, "It's right there." and point, right to where I was just looking. I'm only 39. Only one person in my family has had alzheimers. So I'm hoping it's just a thing I'm going through right now.
Gabriel 05-01-2012 09:47 PM
Luau, (got it right that time :) Yes this is typical. Peanuts are what she wanted but her mind is seeing bags and boxes and cans. What is in a container can be a mystery. When Mom was in AL my sister left several cans of soup in the room. I guess Mom couldn't find the soups she wanted one night because every can was opened and put back in the cabinet. She would look for orange juice in the fridge and not find the biggest white container in there which had the OJ in it. As for her claim that the package had changed... that is also classic. They will make up excuses to cover up their inabilities. I would sound logical if you didn't know the package was the same... and she doesn't. She only knows that she didn't seen any peanuts until you handed them to her.
Love, deb
ninamarc 05-02-2012 07:26 AM
Eagle, it is common for regular people to be forgetful given stress. You can check with the doctor to see about that. It could be other conditions. Or it is just plain forgetfullness because of your life schedule. If you are very busy, you may overlook things.
Take care,
Gabriel 05-02-2012 07:49 AM
Eagle, Nina is right that forgetfulness can be caused by stress and a list of other emotional and physical conditions. Also know that Alzheimer's is not just forgetting but the lost of multiple cognitive abilities. Misplacing the key or not seeing them laying on the counter the first time you look doesn't mean you have Alzheimer's. In Alzheimer's there are memory changes that disrupt daily life. You ability to solve problems is decreased. You have difficulties performing familiar task and get confused to place and time. You have difficulties with visual images and spacial relationships. New problems with written and spoken words may develop. You lost things and can not retrace your steps to find them. You begin to have poor judgement. There are changed in mood and personality while you with draw from work or social activities. If you rush to the store and come out not being able to remember exactly where the car is have no worries. If you rush in the store and come out not knowing you drove the car there then worry.
If you do have serious concerns about your memory then go to your doctor and express these concerns to him. Have a complete physical to check for other reasons for the cognitive issues and ask him to give you a memory test such as the MMSE (Mini Mental Status Exam). Let the doctor decide if there is any validity to your concerns. It is better to know than to guess...
Love, deb
Linda1652 05-10-2012 09:05 AM
I think that is something to do with how our brains our wired. I have always been like that---it's like I see over things that are right in front of me. Mom is the same way. I have to make myself concentrate to find things. I don't think I have ADD!!
Gabriel 05-10-2012 09:39 AM
I do the same thing :) and I know I don't have AD... but the stress of care giving and living in the modern world will cause you to rush through and miss even what you are looking for.
Funny story... I spent two days looking for a paper that I thought I had. I had the other 6 safely in the appropriate file folder and decided I had lost number 7. So I obtained a new form and sent it off to be signed apologizing for having lost the paper. Turns out I never got it!!! It had never been mailed to me :) I just laughed at myself and kept going.
Love, deb

The Schwartz's vs Sarah's 3rd Birthday
Sarah's birthdays drive me nuts right now. She's only 3 and I still can't figure out how to handle the birthday being so close to Christmas thing with her. Last year we just kept it small and it was Chris, Cody, me, and Sarah's "Aunts" Susan, Steffanie, and Cam who celebrated it. We went to a movie, came home had ice cream and opened presents in front of the Christmas tree. I really am fine with that, except doing it in front of the tree bugged me. I really want to have a clear separation of birthday and Christmas for her especially as she gets older. I don't want her to feel slighted or like her special day is ignored because of a holiday. (See, I'm a July birthday. My birthday was and still is awesome every year. Summer birthdays are just better...must remember that for child planning.)
This year I'm working on something "beary" special for her. She's going to have her birthday party at Build a Bear. We are so ridiculous excited about that. Sarah's excited because she's going to build a princess bear. Right now she insists its going to be dressed like and called Cinderella. She's thrilled that she gets to invite friends. Her guest list was pretty extensive. When I asked her who she wanted to invite she said, in this order, "Jessie! Uncle Pete, Auntie Cam, Aunt Susan, Aunt Steffanie, Cody, Daddy, Me! (as in herself), Mommy, and Jesus." We've since revisited her list a few times and come up with a good mix of friends to invite to her party.
I'm crazy excited because after the over board party I threw for Cody I've realized I don't like doing that. I don't like stressing about food, and favors, and entertainment, and how to fit everyone some where. Nope. I don't to do that. So for about the same cost, if not less, I get to take Sarah and 7 of her friends to build a bear. I don't have to decorate, cook, clean, or really do anything other than show up and pay the bill. Wahoo! We're doing it a couple of weeks after Christmas too to make sure that the mall is all de-Christmas-fied and we can focus on it just being a birthday celebration. And what makes it even better is that the day before Sarah's party Build a Bear is actually releasing a Disney Princess themed bear. So she will actually get to make a Princess bear like she's been telling me! How perfect is that. So in a couple of days all I have to do is go online and print out the free invitations and mail them to her friends and then sit back and enjoy the party, and watch all the girls have a great time making their own furry friends. Best. Birthday. Ever.
But you can't have a birthday with out a few presents so I'm going to stick with celebrating with whatever family we're with on her actually birthday. Just a small cake-and-presents celebration to let her know that December 22nd is special and just for her.
This year we were in Pine Bluff with my parents so they got to do the birthday celebrating with Sarah. Mom was so nice to get Sarah a pink cake and balloons just as she requested. (Remember, since daddy's birthday Sarah has been wanting a pink cake and been obsessed with balloons.)
Excited to open presents!
Cute new clothes from Uncle Pete and Tia Elizabeth
A new Furry Friend sent from Build a Bear with a Happy Birthday Shirt, cupcake, and a special note inside wishing her a "Beary Happy Birthday". Thanks Amy at Build a Bear who's been helping me plan Sarah's party!
Tearing the paper off in little bits as fast as she can to get to what she's been asking for for over 6 months:
It's ARIEL! She exclaimed. She is absolutely in love with this doll. She saw them at Walmart over the summer and said that she wanted it then. We've visited them at Costco many times where I told her they lived. And she was thrilled that this Ariel came home to live with her. I was a little worried though because just this past week all of a sudden she started saying she wanted Cinderella.
Some new clothes and a Rapunzel dress up dress from Grandma and Grandpa Smith.
She loves her new princess gown and will be wearing it to her Birthday Party next month.
Singing Happy Birthday to our Princess.
She had a very happy birthday. Her favorite gifts are the Ariel doll and Princess dress. My favorite gift is the Minnie Mouse rolling luggage that Grandma and Grandpa Schwartz gave her. Sarah likes it too mind you. She proudly rolled it out of their house and gladly helped me pack it for our trip to my parents house and then rolled it in there. But I LOVE that thing! It is so cool and adorable. I'm going to have to keep my eye out for a matching Mickey Mouse one for Cody. In fact, we need to run to the mall today and Disney is having their semi-annual sale. Perhaps I'll get lucky.

Quem escreverá nossa história?
O excelente Quem escreverá nossa história?, publicado recentemente no Brasil pela Companhia das Letras, conta a história dos arquivos secretos produzidos por judeus sobre a vida social no Gueto de Varsóvia. O autor, Samuel D. Kassow, professor no Trinity College, em Connecticut, nos Estados Unidos, apresenta o historiador judeu Emanuel Ringelblum, o homem que montou um verdadeiro exército de documentação da vida dos judeus no gueto, entre novembro de 1940 até sua morte, em março de 1944, fuzilado pelos alemães, e analisa a documentação deixada pelo Oyneg Shabes, o nome do arquivo criado por Ringelblum.
O arquivo produziu trabalhos sobre a mulher judia, o futuro dos judeus, a condição das crianças, a luta pela sobrevivência e reuniu relatos de refugiados e fugitivos dos campos nazistas que retornavam ao gueto. Com o tempo, no entanto, o Oyneg Shabes passou a atuar como um braço documental do movimento judaico de resistência, assumindo, como explica Samuel Kassow, novas prioridades e responsabilidades: "Documentar o programa de extermínio, fornecer material para a imprensa clandestina judaica e polonesa, transmitir a informação para fora da Polônia." Em 2 de junho de 1942, Ringelblum ouviu a BBC transmitir a noticia de que os alemães haviam assassinado 700 mil judeus poloneses com base em dois relatórios do Oyneg Shabes que chegaram a Londres. Naquele momento, o número era, na verdade, muito maior.
Uma resenha do livro será publicada em breve no caderno Prosa e Verso, de O Globo

International justice and Brazilian national aspirations
The many possibilities that identity studies generate to understand countries or cultures and their behavior at the international arena are one of the great things about the recent come back of subjectivity in the Social Sciences. In fact, there is no doubt that what we do and create says a lot about what we are and how we think about the world we live in, and vice-versa. In a Freudian sense, thinking about how we see the other and the unknown is pretty much a way to go deep into ourselves.
Hence, I argue here that the idea Brazilians have about the world was traditionally informed by the historical economic development model the country has put forward from 1930 to 1989, based on a nationalist ideology that has built a political consensus around the objectives pursued by successive governments during this period. In 1989, however, this framework suffered some changes with the internationalist turn and the end of the Cold War in Brazil, and the country’s practice concerning the international moved from a relative isolation to a compulsory participation.
The result of this historical path is the combination of a nationalist perspective of the world with the need to participate, a vision of the international as a fearful arena where the country should limitedly fight for its interests with a need to be part of the every day building of the international system. This mixture has produced a notion that allies the perception of an unfair international environment (constructed on unequal terms) with the Brazilian myth of working hard (and being victorious) against hash difficulties.
In this sense, fighting for a fairer international politics is not only in the country’s national interest, as a middle power. Pursuing its national interests is also a way to create a fairer international environment, where middle (and smaller) powers could be heard. In addition, Brazil expects to grant the support of the weak assuming it represents them against the rigidities of the international order. In fact, the end of the Cold War in the country allied the concept of international justice with the Brazilian national aspirations for greatness. Due to all that, I will try to conclude here that the best way to convince Brazilian decision-makers, elites and and citizens of the need to cooperate internationally is to radically democratize the international institutions and framework.
What we do/how we see
Brazilian industrialization process started around the 1930s and was based on the need for breaking the chain that connected the country to the world as an agricultural exporter. It was an ideological rupture with the liberal arguments of free trade and productivity, as much as an embracement of the interventionist idea of a very strong state running a whole industrialization process for the country. From a nationalist perspective, the economic process put into practice could also break Brazil’s “dependency” from foreign production, and would place Brazil side by side with the industrialized nations, the great powers.
The economic development model and the nationalist ideology combined led to some very peculiar positions of the Brazilian foreign policy. Until 1989, Brazil was out of the most important international regimes concerning, for example, trade, nuclear proliferation and intellectual property. The country praised some “independency” related to the United States during the Cold War and fiercely competed against Argentina for the regional hegemony.
This historical path led to the 1980s debt crisis, a huge inflationary process, one of the worst income concentrations of the world and the terrible neglect of public services in social areas as education, health care, public security and access to justice, but it also has placed Brazil in the hall of the ten strongest economies of the globe. In addition, it consolidated the idea that the international arena should be a place for the country to act limitedly, or not to establish any commmitments that could negatively influence the economic development plan and the process of strengthening Brazilian relative position. Joining a nuclear regime, for example, as the Non-Proliferation Treaty, was perceived more as a limitation to progress than a pacifist policy.
The end of the Cold War in Brazil
The Brazilian political, social and economic crises of the 1980s and the global changes during the last quarter of the 20th century – the fluctuation of the dollar, the raise of the international interest rates, the oil shocks, the economic globalization and the dismantle of the Soviet Union and the old East European regimes – contributed to the noteworthy ideological changes in Brazil. Hence, 1989 is a very special year. While communism was crumbling behind the Iron Curtain and social catastrophe was knocking on Brazilians’ doors, the country was experiencing the first democratic presidential elections since the military coup in 1964. Twenty-two candidates were running for president at that very moment, including the current president Luis Inácio Lula da Silva, and the elections took place in November (first round) and December (second round) of 1989.
Unsurprisingly, the presidential campaign generated a political debate of gigantic proportions. The whole situation and history of the country was questioned. This was our “revolution”, our yellow and green revolution that should be perceived more as the end of the Cold War in the country than a byproduct of this process – in a way that opens the possibility for including Brazil in the comparative studies of this peculiar historical moment. After all, for example, both Brazil and the Soviet Union perceived their economies as technologically lagged and their relative position as deteriorating with the economic globalization process that they were not participating.
After 1989, Brazil changed radically its international profile – and this is, in my view, together with the democratization process, the seed for the widely praised current situation of the country. Brazil slowly commited itself to the trade, nuclear proliferation, the environment and intellectual property international regimes, even though sometimes in a limited or critical way. It opened itself for the international finance and radically diminished the direct role of the state in its domestic economy. A huge privatization process generated private business stars such as Embraer, the aeronautic exporter, and the giant of the mineral sector Vale do Rio Doce, now called simply Vale.
Among all these changes, one of the main notions this “revolution” has put in place was of “international participation”. Brazil could no longer be out of the political debate concerning the international regimes, as it could no longer be out of the globalization process. On the contrary, the country should participate in as many forums as possible, defending its interests and an exceptionalist behavior. At this very moment, the nationalist tradition and the need to participate created a mix of a realist fight for selfish interests with the need to have more voice in the system. This behaviour was deeply linked to the discourse in defense of the democratization of the decision making process at the international level, and the strategy adopted aimed at fulfilling Brazil's self interests as a middle power country as well as served as a mechanism to gain foreign support from the numerous nations in similar positions or those with even more limited capabilities.
Brazil’s role in the WTO debates concerning the Doha Round, for example, is very representative of this point. As the leader of the developing world at the G20 forum, Brazil represents its own interests by calling for a wider liberalization of the international agriculture market and the end of the subsidies practices. At the same time, advocates to the great powers for a fairer trade system, in which less developed countries could also profit from international commerce.
The plea for a permanent seat at the United Nations Security Council follows the same logic, and also the country’s position concerning global environmental rules and intellectual property – as in the breaking of patents of HIV medicines, for example. All of these moves ally Brazilian interests with the intention to fracture what is seen as an elitist framework of international politics and economics. Hence, wealthy and power nations have to do their material and political sacrifices for the world to become fairer and more equal. Even the timid and controversial defense of Iran’s nuclear program fits this model, since the issue is sensible for the Brazilian decision makers and is perceived as an intervention of the great powers in a middle power national project.
In conclusion, my argument is that Brazil’s historical path led the country to a perception of the international environment as an unfair arena in which one should work hard and struggle for its interests and survival, and that this same struggle is perceived by Brazilians as a way to build a fairer and better world. Curiously, this representation fits very well into the characters presented at the most famous contemporary Brazilian movies, praised particularly in Europe, as Central do Brasil and Cidade de Deus.
The only way that the Brazilian decision-makers and political elite could favor a more cooperative behavior for the country at the international realm would be through a radical transformation of the international institutional framework in a way that the global political environment could be perceived as a more democratic arena. This would be, for sure, shared by a public opinion used to see the world as a very unfair place where the rich and great powers are always trying to gain against the weaker peoples.
The materialization of this idea would be, for example, to accomplish the reform of the UN Security Council, new efforts from the United States and Europe concerning the developmental agenda of the Doha Round, new postures within the environmental debate that take into account the position of late developers and, the unlikely and radically, the global nuclear disarmament. Unfortunately, in my view, this is the only way nationalism can be defeated in Brazil in favor of globalism, or the important Brazilian cooperation in global issues. | http://arthur-ituassu.blogspot.com/2010/02/ | robots: classic

US special forces Afghan helicopter downed 'by Taliban'
Media captionBBC's Quentin Sommerville in Kabul says the crash was a significant loss for the international mission
'Enemy activity'
"The president of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan expresses his sympathy and deep condolences to US President Barack Obama and the family of the victims," the statement from President Karzai said.
President Obama, too, issued a statement paying tribute to the Americans and Afghans who died in the crash.
"We will draw inspiration from their lives, and continue the work of securing our country and standing up for the values that they embodied. We also mourn the Afghans who died alongside our troops in pursuit of a more peaceful and hopeful future for their country," the statement said.
Reports say more than 20 of the US dead were Navy Seals.
A US military source has confirmed to the BBC that they were from Seal Team Six - the same unit which killed Bin Laden in Pakistan in May.
However, US officials have told both the BBC and AP they do not believe that any of those who took part in the Bin Laden operation were on the downed helicopter.
The size of Team Six, an elite unit within the Seals, which is officially called the Naval Special Warfare Development Group, is not known.
Several air force personnel, a dog and his handler, a civilian interpreter, and the helicopter crew were also on board, AP reports.
The Nato-led International Security Assistance Force (Isaf) said it was mounting an operation to recover the helicopter and find out why it crashed. It said there had been "enemy activity in the area" where it went down.
A Taliban spokesman said insurgents had brought down the helicopter with a rocket after US and Afghan troops attacked a house in the Sayd Abad district of Wardak where insurgents were meeting late on Friday, Associated Press said.
Sayd Abad, near the province of Kabul, is known to have a strong Taliban presence.
A Wardak government spokesman quoted by AFP news agency agreed with this, saying the helicopter had been hit as it was taking off.
A local resident told the BBC Pashto service a rocket had hit the helicopter.
"What we saw was that when we were having our pre-dawn [Ramadan] meal, Americans landed some soldiers for an early raid," said Mohammad Wali Wardag.
"This other helicopter also came for the raid. We were outside our rooms on a veranda and saw this helicopter flying very low, it was hit by a rocket and it was on fire."
There are currently about 140,000 foreign troops - about 100,000 of them American - in Afghanistan, fighting the Taliban insurgency and training local troops to take over security.
All foreign combat forces are due to leave Afghanistan by the end of 2014 and some troop withdrawals have already taken place.
Nato has begun the process of handing over control of security in some areas to local forces, with Bamiyan becoming the first province to pass to Afghan control in mid-July.
An increase in US troop numbers last year has had some success combating the Taliban in the south of Afghanistan, but attacks in the north, which was previously relatively quiet, have picked up in recent months.

What is your role and what do you do here at Fatshark?
I’m a concept artist. My role is to do sketches and paintings that help guide the visuals of the game.
What would you say is an average workday for you?
I get coffee and start painting. I like to get right into the work while my mind is fresh. A couple of times a week I attend meetings with the level design and art teams to discuss the levels we are working on. Other than that it’s pretty straightforward, but there are usually a lot of concepts to be done so being focused is a must.
What was the key ingredient for creating the artstyle of Vermintide 2?
When creating the artstyle for Chaos specifically we referenced metal covers (yes, seriously), some elements from the latest Mad Max movie as well as clothing and equipment from the Sami culture, an indigenous people living in the northern parts of Sweden and Norway. And spikes, of course, you can never have too many spikes.
The general goal for the environments in the game was variation and diversity compared to Vermintide 1. We wanted to have a lot of natural light and different lighting scenarios introducing some color into the otherwise muted Vermintide world.
How did you become a concept artist?
After highschool I messed around a bit and ended up studying art history at the University of Gothenburg. It wasn’t really my thing, but I started to become interested in art. During that year I ran into an Environment design tutorial by Feng Zhu, he’s a super talented concept artist. Before this, I had never heard of concept art but once I realized you could make a living drawing and painting stuff for video games I was hooked.
So I started drawing when I was 20. Unfortunately there’s no concept art program or school in Sweden, or no really good art schools for that matter, you just have to wing it. But I was lucky enough to get into a game development program at Skövde University where I studied game art. We learn the entire art pipeline, from modelling, texturing to rigging and animation. I spent 3 years there working hard.
After graduation, I landed my first job at a small indie studio (Pieces Interactive, owned by THQ Nordic) doing hand painted 3d art and concept art. I worked there for a couple of years, then I did a short contract at Paradox Interactive before going freelance doing concept art and illustration full time. During my first years of working, I took a lot of classes during the evenings. There are a lot of awesome concept artists and matte painters providing online classes. They helped me get my art skills to an industry standard.
What would you say is the biggest difference between Vermintide 1 and Vermintide 2?
I didn’t work on Vermintide 1, but I played it. So for me, everything was pretty fresh. But I’d have to say the Chaos!
Including a new faction provided an opportunity to expand the visuals in another direction than the Skaven. And the Skaven got some more fleshing out. I got the opportunity to design some architecture and a Skaven stronghold which was fun!
What are you the most proud of in your work for Vermintide 2?
I like the Skittergate, the portal structure in the intro (and the last level). It was a really challenging thing to design, with a lot of moving parts and lore considerations as well as VFX design for the portal opening itself. The art team did an awesome job with how it looks and works in the game.
What is the best part of making art in Warhammer and Vermintide?
The breadth of reference that’s available. I’m a hardcore Left for Dead fan, so working on a game in the same genre is really fun.
Do you have any fun facts about your work?
No fun facts, painting is serious business! I did a concept sculpt for the dove statue at the start of Convocation of decay. Somehow it ended up in the game without anyone touching it up, haha!

An Orthodox Reply to the Opinion of Cardinal Walter Kasper:
'The Orthodox Church does not really exist'.
Cardinal Walter Kasper, President of the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity, has recently spoken of the difficulties of the Vatican in ecumenical dialogue with the Orthodox Church, stating: 'We are increasingly conscious of the fact that an Orthodox Church does not really exist'. He went on to explain his words, saying that the Vatican had expected that the Patriarchate of Constantinople played a similar role in the Orthodox world to that played by the Papacy in the Roman Catholic world. He had realised that it does not. Hence his personal revelation.
Our reply is that the Orthodox Church does really exist, but, it is true, not at all in the Roman Catholic form imagined by the Cardinal. The latter had conceived of the Orthodox Church as a monolithic and basically secular organisation headed by an Eastern Pope, apparently the Patriarch of Constantinople. This statement by a senior Vatican official once more goes to prove how little the Orthodox Church even today is understood in Rome. The very basics of Orthodox ecclesiology, the Orthodox understanding of the Church, and beyond that, the Orthodox teachings on the Holy Trinity and the Holy Spirit, are still novelties to the mind of the Vatican.
Firstly, the Orthodox Church has no Pope or Papacy, a system which was born out of a mindset foreign to the Church. The Head of the Orthodox Church is Christ and Christ alone. True, the Patriarchate of Constantinople has a historic, administrative role or 'primacy of honour' which is recognised by all the local Orthodox Churches. This is a primacy inherited by Constantinople after the defection of the Roman Patriarchate from the Orthodox Church nearly one thousand years ago. Unfortunately, the word 'primacy', used to describe that role, is clearly misunderstood in Rome. Primacy in the Orthodox sense does not mean 'supremacy'. If tomorrow, for example, the Patriarchate of Constantinople disappeared or defected from the Orthodox Faith, the primacy of honour would pass on to another Patriarchate. The Orthodox Church would continue, as of old, but, as one might say, someone else would have to do the occasional office work.
At the present time, for example, the Patriarchate of Constantinople is a very feeble organisation, dependent on a few dozen individuals, with a nominal flock of perhaps three to four million, mainly in the Americas, Western Europe and Australia. It certainly has no 'supremacy' in the local Orthodox Churches in Greece or Cyprus, let alone in Russia, the Balkans, Antioch or Jerusalem, or in the new Orthodox Churches in America, Czechia and Slovakia, and Japan. Even Constantinople's own largest Archdiocese, in North America, is at present seeking autonomy from it. There is clearly no supremacy here, but, however weak the Patriarchate may be, it still has an indisputable historic primacy.
If primacy does not mean supremacy to the Orthodox mind, neither does it mean authority to define the faith. For example, even if we were to imagine that by far the largest and most powerful local Orthodox Church, Moscow, held the primacy of honour in the Universal Orthodox Church, it would still make no difference to the structures of the Orthodox Church. Even if the Patriarchate of Moscow held the primacy of honour within the Universal Orthodox Church, it would still have only a jurisdictional authority even on the territory of the Russian Federation (and even there it might in its present compromised condition be challenged by dissidents). And outside Russia, apart from in a few emigrant parishes in the Americas and Western Europe, the Patriarchate of Moscow would not even have any jurisdictional authority.
In other words, authority in the Church belongs to the bearers of the Holy Spirit, the Saints of God, Who live in the Holy Spirit. Thus, for example, at the present time, the most authoritative of all the Orthodox Patriarchs is probably Patriarch Pavle of the Serbian Orthodox Church. Distinguished by his extraordinary humility and also theological acumen, his voice is the one Patriarchal voice which commands authority in the Universal Orthodox Church at present. He certainly has no political power or riches, but he does have authority - conferred by the grace which dwells in him and is expressed by him.
Such has always been the authority of the Church, the Holy Spirit speaking either through Councils of inspired bishops or else through inspired individuals. Church history is full of examples of such authority. It is the only authority recognised by the Universal Orthodox Church in all ages and in all lands. It is that selfsame authority of which they spoke in Capernaum of old: 'What a word is this! For with authority and power he commandeth the unclean spirits, and they come out!' (Luke 4, 36).
Moreover, in the same way as He confers authority, the Holy Spirit also confers unity on the Church. The Orthodox Church is a family of free and independent Churches. What we have in common, through space and time, is the same Orthodox Faith. If only Cardinal Kasper could travel through the Orthodox world, over the five Continents, and see our Orthodox life, striving in monasteries and parishes, then he would experience that unity for himself. Going to services, seeing the blood and sweat and tears of the faithful, he would experience for himself the prayer and fasting and repentance of Orthodox Christians, which is and always has been the life and the goal of the Church from Gospel times until this day. As the nineteenth-century Russian Saint, Seraphim of Sarov, put it so succinctly: 'Our aim is the acquisition of the Holy Spirit'.
He should not, therefore, expect to meet this authority or unity at air-conditioned conference centres in Switzerland or in the 5-star hotels prepared for ecumenical delegations at exotic, jet-set locations. If he did expect to meet the Orthodox Church there, then we understand why he has come to the conclusion that 'the Orthodox Church does not really exist'. She exists surely enough, but She is to be found not in secular establishments and secular minds, but in the hearts and lives of the faithful.

Your Body, Your Pap Smear, Your Responsibility!
Your Body, Your Pap Smear, Your Responsibility
Do you dread that most personal of check-ups, the Cervical Pap Smear? It is no secret - for most women, it is one of the most dreaded routine checks they will go through. There is always the temptation to put it off, but please think twice before postponing that appointment! It may not be a pleasant experience, but it is a necessary one and it could just mean the difference between life-and-death. Detecting abnormal cells as soon as possible greatly improves the chances of early treatment. Not all cell changes mean they are of the cancerous type but only a pap smear will determine this. Abnormal cervical cells, also called cervical dysplasia, can often take 5 years, or more, to turn cancerous but if left undetected, thus untreated, dysplasia sometimes progresses to an early form of cancer known as cervical carcinoma in situ, and eventually to invasive cervical cancer. Dysplasia can be detected from a Pap smear, the single most important step that a woman can take to prevent … [Read more...] | http://www.fightlikeagirlclub.com/category/articles-by-cause/cervical-cancer/ | robots: classic

} | 2,800 | 5 Pocket Models of the Macroeconomy
Economists, like all academics, spend most of their time becoming experts on very specific topics. One economist might specialize in the effects of micro-incentives in third-world countries, another might focus on the applications of game theory to the organ donor market, and a third may spend years pondering the causes of a particular historical economic event. When asked about their area of expertise, they give highly detailed, properly qualified, and usually accurate answers. However, when time is short and the question is novel, as when a policymakers need to respond to new and therefore unique macroeconomic event, economists tend to rely on a handful of basic models that most undergraduates learn in Econ 101.
The particular model varies by economist. For example, Paul Krugman proudly proclaims the IS-LM to be his favorite mistress. In his book A Term at the Fed, economist Lawrence Meyer says that he relied on the concept of the NAIRU to guide his recommendations as a Federal Reserve Board governor from 1996 to 2002. However, because his contemporaries on the FOMC, the committee that raises and lowers US interest rates, used different concepts and models to form their opinions, they often came to different conclusions. I suspect that an accurate map of economic ideology could be drawn simply by looking at which "pocket model" economists reference when answering questions on the fly.
As the "About" section of this blog proudly proclaims, I'm a quack without a flock, which means that I use a quirky pocket model of my own creation, although its basic principles aren't too far off of the mainstream macro track. I call it "The Spaghetti Model." They say that "it takes a theory to beat a theory" and I also often think that "it takes beating a theory to make a theory," so before making pasta, I'll explain why I don't like using the other common pocket models. I'll cover four:
1. Classical Principles
2. Keynesian AS-AD (Aggregate Supply-Aggregate Demand)
3. Neoclassical AS-AD (Aggregate Supply-Aggregate Demand)
4. IS-LM (Investment-Savings-Liquidity-Money)
The DSGE is not on the list, primarily because the DSGE is not a pocket model, and secondarily because another post on this blog and also the theory tab tangle with it directly. In the interest of time I've also neglected Austrian and Post Keynesian models, which are respectively right and left of the mainstream and rarely used by policymakers in power.
1) Classical Principles
Briefly, classical economics proclaims that markets are always efficient, money is always neutral, prices are always flexible, unemployment is always voluntary, supply always creates its own demand, and government intervention is almost always a bad idea. Classical principles are pretty easy to dismiss:
Despite its general lack of explanatory power, many economists still quote the tenants of classical economics like verses from the bible. One must admit that classical ideas are appealing. Green pieces of paper aren’t valuable, so why should the quantity of money have any affect on the real economy? People can always offer to work for less money, so how can there be unemployment, except by choice? Classical economics got a second kick in the 1970s and 80s, when real business cycle modeling seemed for a time to support old ideas. Finally, economists who don’t like the AS-AD or IS-LM sometimes keep classical principles in their pockets simply for lack of a lesser evil. Although today applied mainly out ignorance or out of spite, classical economics still influences policy and cannot be ignored.
2) Keynesian AS-AD
Supply and demand first entered mainstream economics with Alfred Marshall’s 1890 textbook, Principles of Economics, but originally the two iconic curves were used to describe equilibrium only in individual markets. In 1937 in The General Theory of Interest, Employment and Money John Maynard Keynes put forward a theory of sticky wages and effective demand that allowed economists to draw the macroeconomy on axes of quantity and price. If aggregate demand increased (though mechanisms described by the IS-LM model, to be discussed), he argued, total real output, total employment and the price level would also increase.
In 1958 the unassuming New Zealand born economist William Phillips published a paper showing an empirical tradeoff between unemployment and inflation in historical UK data. His findings fit the Keynesian model well; greater employment came at the cost of inflation, and vice versa. Governments could push the economy right or left along the “Phillipscurve” by manipulating aggregate demand through monetary and fiscal policy:
The IS-LM, the AS-AD, and Phillips curve formed the foundation for macroeconomic policy in the 50s, 60s and early 70s, until the Neoclassical AS-AD model replaced it as the pocket model of choice in the late 70s. Because of it’s similarity to basic supply and demand, the Keynesian AS-AD model is often used to introduce students to the study of aggregate relationships, but is generally snubbed by serious policymakers, because of what happened next.
3) Neoclassical AS-AD
In the late 1970s the economy started behaving in a way that defied the predictions of the Keynesian AS-AD; both unemployment AND inflation began to rise. In search of a better pocket model, Policymakers turned to Milton Friedman, who in 1967 had pointed out that the mainstream macroeconomic framework was missing one essential concept: inflationary expectations.
Friedman argued that if the government announced policy intended to increase employment, producers would expect inflation, and would therefore raise prices without increasing output or employment. Instead of pushing the economy right along the Phillips curve, the entire curve would shift out. With so-called “adaptive expectations,” Friedman continued, unemployment always tends toward a natural rate, determined roughly by the frictional unemployment necessary to match employers to employees and also possibly by the artificial minimum wage. In other words, government policy alone cannot produce real growth.
Further, Friedman and his supporters argued that the only thing that could increase output in the long term was an exogenous shock to productivity. This neoclassical spin on the AS-AD allowed that because of price stickiness, unemployment could in the short term rise above or below this rate, but such imbalances would always eventually be corrected by changes in the price level. Only the natural rate of unemployment tied to the natural rate of output produced price stability, a quantity he dubbed the Non-Accelerating Inflation Rateof Unemployment, or NAIRU.
This probably violates Mankiew's copyright, but you can see his explanation on slides 14-34 of this powerpoint.
Today the Neoclassical AS-AD, with the IS-LM, is one of the primary macroeconomic models taught to students, and probably the most generally accepted on this list. While I think that Milton’s incorporation of expectations was appropriate, in my eyes the Neoclassical AS-AD is still far from the perfect pocket model. Three reasons:
1. It offers no explanation for aggregate demand, an omission that becomes acceptable if the model is taken in conjunction with the IS-LM, but the integration isn’t clean and I’d also rather have one working pocket model than two half-functional ones.
2. It completely divorces technological progress from demand, which given a second’s thought is obviously incorrect. The Internet wasn’t handed down to us by benevolent exogenous gods, it was developed and funded by those who anticipated that consumer demand would produce massive profits. Ideally we should be able to model the interaction between business cycles and long-term growth in the same model.
3. On a related point, the NAIRU is hard to accept, both morally and empirically. If the goal is to conquer unemployment, assuming a natural rate admits defeat before the battle. More importantly, a natural rate isn’t “naturally” discernable from the data.
4) IS-LM
The IS-LM model was first formalized in 1937 by John Hicks in his paper "Mr. Keynes and the Classics: A Suggested Interpretation," and was again was based on ideas sketched during by John Maynard Keynes in the The General Theory of Interest, Employment and Money. With the Keynesian AS-AD and the Phillips curve, IS-LM was hot in the 40s, 50s, and 60s. Today the IS-LM is taught to undergraduates but almost never applied in formal academic papers.
The IS-LM plots two curves on axes of output and interest rate. The IS curve is downward sloping because when the interest rate is high, people tend to save more and spend and borrow less, and when the interest rate is low, people tend to borrow and spend more and save less. The LM curve is upward sloping because the demand for money, or liquidity preference, is positively correlated with output and negatively correlated with the interest rate.
The IS curve can be represented by this equation:
And the LM curve by this equation:
The IS-LM curve isn’t particularly easy to understand, and many explanations exist; Hicks starts from another place entirely, Krugman takes a useful angle here. In his standard economics textbook, Greg Mankiew the two curves from two other graphs, the Keynesian Cross and the Money Market:
Again violating Mankiew's copyright, check out slides 35-69.
The IS-LM is quite handy because it allows one to easily model the effect of fiscal policy and monetary policy. Taken in conjunction with the Keynesian AS-AD, it was thought to model long-term effects on output, but after adaptive expectations came into favor economists began to think of the IS-LM as only as a short-term model. (Although what “short-term” means is still up for debate). Today, Paul Krugman models liquidity traps with the IS-LM; when equilibrium dips below the “zero lower bound” the economy is stuck at low output, and won’t get out until we can manage to move the IS curve out.
Krugs creative manipulation is actually pretty useful, although still weird
Partially because it’s so oddly constructed, many people strongly dislike the IS-LM. Of the four models listed so far, the IS-LM is by far my favorite, but still, three problems:
1. It cannot model the effects of changes in productivity on output or aggregate demand and also has nothing to say about the price level. These omissions become acceptable if the model is taken in conjunction with the AS-AD, but again, I’d rather have one model.
2. It draws a bright line between illiquid interest-bearing assets and liquid non-interest bearing money, which may have been a legitimate assumption in Keynes’ day when financial markets were less developed; but in today's world, when consumers can cash in securities in five minutes with a smartphone app, does a general theory of liquidity preference still make sense? It might; I'm not sure. (For the more wonkish reader: I'm cool with the precautionary motive, but not with the transactions motive, and I'm iffy about the causal power of the speculative motive).
3. In general it places too much importance mechanical relationships, and not enough on subtler shifts in expectations. You can correct for this by observing that changes in expectations shift the constant variables, but then again if you’re determined you can hack almost any model to show what you want. Take Krugman’s zero lower bound application. If the only way to illustrate current events with the IS-LM is by adding a quadrant that was never intended to be part of the model in the first place, maybe we can do better?
Another commonly cited problem with the IS-LM is that it implies that the central bank targets the money supply, not the interest rate directly, as most central banks have been doing for decades. David Romer of the University of Berkeley proposed an adjustment, which he labeled the IS-MP (Investment-Savings-Monetary Policy) model to better reflect this reality, which essentially replaces money market with a horizontal line determined by the central bank. I don’t think that this adjustment cuts at the heart of my problems with the IS-LM, and I also don't like how it pretends that the central bank can play god. (Because let's face it, sometimes Bernanke is just pushing on a string).
5) The Spaghetti Model
To define The Spaghetti Model, I’ll start from two problems all of the models above share.
1. First, none deal well with time. Even the Neoclassical AS-AD, which incorporates curves for both short term and long term supply, is at any one point only a snapshot of a single period.
2. Second, it’s not always easy to translate the models into empirical data. Wouldn’t it be nice to build a model from what we have? The five most important economic aggregates we track today are probably:
• Nominal GDP
• Inflation
• Unemployment
• Monetary aggregates
• Interest rates
Given these two considerations, let’s start by graphing Nominal GDP over time
Units of Account is more accurate and more internationally inclusive than dollars.
Next, let’s add in inflation. We could just graph inflation on the same chart, as is often done, but instead let’s use inflation to calculate Real GDP. Plotting Real GDP on the same axes as Nominal GDP requires us to pick some point in time where Nominal GDP = Real GDP, but because we’re concerned about relationships, this point is arbitrary. A positive rate of inflation increases the gap between the two curves, and deflation decreases it.
Next, unemployment. Macroeconomists often speak of a hypothetical quantity called “Potential GDP,” the output the economy could produce if it was at full employment. Potential Real GDP is usually thought to be determined by the level of technology and the capital stock, and is difficult, if not impossible, to measure. So let’s use the unemployment rate to define Potential GDP relative to real GDP:
Now we have three curves, but still really haven’t said anything about money. Here comes the twist. If we can plot a curve representing Potential Real GDP, why can’t we plot a curve representing Potential Nominal GDP, the maximum amount of money you could possibly spend in a period? Potential Nominal GDP clearly should have some relation to monetary aggregates, but it’s equally clearly a separate variable, since nearly all of the monetary aggregates we track are lower than Nominal GDP. Potential Nominal GDP in a period should be the money times the potential velocity of money. As we assume that the level of technology and existing capital stock determine Potential Real GDP, we can assume that technology and capital determine potential velocity, the speed at which economic value can be exchanged. If technology improves or the money supply increases, Potential Nominal GDP will also increase.
Unfortunately, because it’s a composite variable we can’t chart Potential Nominal GDP directly off of measures of monetary aggregates. Enter the interest rate. We can think of the interest rate, like the unemployment rate, as a pressure gauge; as demand drives Nominal GDP toward Potential Nominal GDP, the pressure increases and the interest rate goes up, and vice versa. Defining Potential Nominal GDP in this way also conveniently allows us to sidestep defining it directly, like using unemployment to define Potential Real GDP deflects ugly questions about the nature of “value.”
Now we have a full model approximated with four of the five variables above, Nominal GDP, inflation, unemployment and the interest rate:
Simple. Straight. Uncooked Spaghetti.
Expectations and government policy move curves, and the other curves react through push and pull.
• If a positive state of expectation, or a bull market, pulls up Nominal GDP, the increase in spending will in turn pull on Real GDP and Potential Real GDP.
• Because production responds slower to changes in expectation than spending, Real GDP usually increases less than Nominal GDP in a bull market, leading to a rise in the price level as well as a rise in output, like in the Keynesian AS-AD model.
• Potential Real GDP responds even slower to changes in expectation, and often productivity gains don’t arrive until after the bull market is over.
• Because Potential Nominal GDP is partially defined by technology and the capital stock, productivity gains cause both curves to increase in tandem.
• The two "Potentials" or “Capacities” roughly chart long term trends, where the other two curves chart business cycles.
• If expansionary monetary policy increases Potential Nominal GDP, that will pull on spending, but if that monetary expansion is accompanied by an increase in inflationary expectations, it will not pull on Real GDP or Potential Real GDP.
With the Spaghetti model, we can model a number of common macroeconomic phenomena quite easily:
Why spaghetti? Well, if you actually graphed these four curves with historical data, it would probably look a lot like spaghetti:
Three More Things I Like About the Spaghetti Model
1. It has NGDP at its heart and so fits with a currently popular and I think useful macro fad.
2. The Federal Reserve seeks to influence unemployment and inflation via the interest rate, and the model conveniently relies on all three.
3. Little about the model is mechanical, there are no all-important but unintuitive constants like the Marginal Propensity to Consume or the NAIRU to define. Some might complain that The Spaghetti Model leaves too much to discretion, and they would be justified; you can plausibly argue for almost any degree of push and pull. But then again you can do the same with IS and LM, AS and AD shifts. You can also pull out the push-pull and actual-potential relationships into charts that resemble the IS-LM and AS-AD; I'm too lazy to do that here, and this post is already enormous.
Most of all, I like this model because I find it to be most useful; that’s why I keep it in my pocket.

President Obama tries out Sphero, the iPhone controlled rolling robot
You have over 500 congressmen and senators who directly write policy and budgets yet you blame one man? Awesome.
Yes it's congress' job to write policy but it's the President who sets the policy and agenda goals. The Conservative majority in the House write a bill cutting spending and/or taxes, the Liberal majority in the Senate either don't vote on it or vote it down. Why does it get voted down? Because the Liberals do what their leader tells them to do.
Ohhhhhh come the great arguments since everyone is always right. Shesh...stick to the subject.....anywho. Cool much is it?

} | 717 | Be ready, act early, act safe
Be ready to act early, be considerate, and act safe.
Most Emergency evacuation Centres can't accept pets so make arrangements ahead of time to leave your pets with friends, family, veterinarians, or boarding kennels away from the affected area, to arrange for their care. Ensure medical and feeding information, along with at least a 72-hour supply of food, medicine, and other supplies accompany your pet to its foster home. Some animal shelters will provide temporary foster care for owned pets in times of disaster, but this should be considered only as a last resort.
If your pet isn't a dog, cat, or bird, (aquariums, reptiles, small livestock - horses, pigs, fowls, goats, horses, cattle, and sheep) contact specialised agencies, such as Queensland Primary Industry and Fisheries (livestock), the RSPCA, your animal's veterinarian, or local pet shop for specialised advice in planning for emergencies, such as suggested ways to provide sufficient heating without a power supply, water, food, and carriers.
If you own livestock, check with their local council or other agencies about likely hazards, local emergency plans, and what arrangements are in place regarding temporary animal shelters and yards in time of major emergencies or disasters. Plan to move livestock into a safe area when warnings are issued.
Your safety, and that of your family, is paramount, so don't risk human life trying to find and protect pets.
Leaving your animals alone at home, during an emergency, could place them in danger. If you have no alternative but to leave your pet at home, there are some precautions you should take. Confine your pet to a safe area inside - unchained, well sheltered, and protected from harm with bedding. Make sure your pet has access to plenty of food and water. Provide more than one bowl of water in case of spillage. Leave two or three days of dry food in a large heavy container that is difficult to knock over. Leave water in a sturdy container that is difficult to knock over.
Kept inside they won't take flight, run away or hide. Never leave your pet chained outside or chained inside, because they won't be able to get above floodwaters or flea from harm. Avoid leaving them in rooms with hazards such as large windows, hanging plants or large picture frames. In case of flooding, position a heavy chair or crate to allow access to a higher refuge such as benches, vanity units, shelves, or wardrobe tops. Never leave an animal locked in a vehicle.
Place a notice outside (on the front door or fence in a visible area) advising emergency services that pets have been left inside, with a description of each pet and where they are located. Provide your contact phone number and contact details for your vet.
Birds must eat daily so leave them food and water dispensers in their cage. To help calm the bird have a cover for the cage. Keep a vacation food block handy to feed your fish.
Consider your animal's sanitation needs, which is important for their health; for example newspaper, paper towels disinfectant, and rubbish bags. Normally quiet and friendly pets may become aggressive or defensive after an emergency event, so monitor their behaviour closely.
Here are some additional suggestions to keep your animals safe:
• Carry birds, rabbits, guinea pigs, mice, etc in cages or pillowcases (tied firmly) or in secure boxes with small air holes.
• Put fish into a large wide-necked jar with a secure lid. Fill a jar two-thirds with water and when stationary, remove the lid.
• Frogs need a small covered tub with 2.5cm (1inch) of water in the bottom and air holes in the top of the container.
• Snakes and lizards need to be put in a container with a secure lid and air holes; alternatively in a securely tied sack or pillowcase.
• Poultry and aviary birds can be affected by smoke, so make a hessian curtain to fit the cage, drop the curtain and wet down. | http://hardenup.org/prepare-yourself/practical-preparation-advice/pets-and-animals/be-ready,-act-early,-act-safe.aspx | robots: classic

} | 285 | Why Blog?
You might very well be asking yourself, why should I be blogging for an English class? And I think it’s a fair question, so let me give you the best answer that I can.
In the first place, you should expect that a class in the English department will help you refine your ability to write. From my own experience, I have found that the best way to improve one’s writing is to practice. Thus, this blog is a place for you to practice your writing. And not just any writing, but careful and thoughtful writing that seeks to answer the two questions of literary study: “what?” and “how?”
But why a blog? Why can’t you just write assignments, print them out, and hand them in? While literary studies might seem to be a very solitary task–a single author responding on her own to a single-authored text–it is in fact a conversation. Of course, one is always in “conversation” with the text being examined, but a good writer is also in conversation with others writing about the same text. You’ve done this in the past when writing research papers. When blogging you broaden your audience: suddenly your classmates can be in conversation with you…even when we’re not in the classroom.
Okay, so we want to practice writing and to engage one another in our understanding of the texts at hand. But why do this on a public blog (i.e., not Blackboard) where *gulp* someone might find what Ihave to say? Quite simply: the more the merrier in a conversation. If we draw attention from the outside world, it will help us remember that college is not simply preparation for “the real world” but that it is in fact a vital part of the “real” world. | https://www.briancroxall.net/lit-tech/why-blog/ | isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2020-05

} | 576 | Direct Participation Programs
Direct Investments are generally income investments, providing a regular stream of dividend payments based on: real estate rentals, mortgage payments, equipment leases, and oil or natural gas sales. In some cases, investors realize capital gains at the end of the investment term from the sale of their interest. Many direct investments also provide tax benefits, DPP's or (Direct Participation Programs),are not without their risks. Including the risk of: rental property vacancy, mortgage defaults, lease defaults, equipment failure, dry oil wells, and dropping energy prices, among others. However, many of these risks are non-systematic and relate to specific investments. You can analyze these risks by researching the management, quality of assets, performance history, and business plan of the venture. Much of this analysis is performed in the normal course of due diligence by independent research firms and by broker-dealers before they agree to sell any DPP'S. Here at CFG Wealth Management we will also evaluate the sponsor's management team, as well as their business strategy, track record of program performance, and financial strength.
The extent to which asset classes perform similarly to one another is called, "correlation". Positively correlated assets are affected in the same way by certain systematic risks, and their returns tend to move in the same direction. Negatively correlated assets are affected differently by economic and political events and their returns tend to move in opposite directions. The extent to which assets perform similarly or differently indicates the level of their correlation, typically measured on a scale from (1) being (most positive) to (-1) being (most negative). Many alternative investments tend to have low to negative correlations to stocks, bonds and mutual funds, as their vlaues do not tend to move in tandem with equity or bond markets. Though it may seem counter-intuitive, adding higher risk and negatively correlated assets to your portfolio can reduce the overall volatility and risk within your portfolio and increase your potential return.
State suitability and accredited investor rules apply - not suitable for all investors.
While some mix of traditional asset classes is likely to yield satisfactory investment returns for the average investor, you may also look for non-traditional opportunities to put your money to work, such as: futures, options, and direct investments. These alternatives have the potential to provide balance in an otherwise conventional portfolio, as well as, increase your current income. However, before adding new asset classes to the mix, you will want to be sure you understand their risks as well as their strong points.
Together with CFG Wealth Management, we can investigate the ways in which different types of investments put your money to work, and identify the ones that interest you the most.
Direct investments are generally long-term investments in limited partnerships or corporations investing in businesses such as : real estate, equipment leasing, and energy exploration and development. By making a direct investment in one of these programs, an investor becomes part owner of the enterprise.

When it comes to creating stories on the stage, Mary Zimmerman is a master. But the Tony Award-winning director is very specific about the tales she chooses to tell.
"One thing I really like is to try to stage the impossible," says Zimmerman, 53, sitting in the Goodman Theatre as the crew put the finishing touches on the set of her latest production, "The White Snake," which she wrote and directs. "I like to include multiple locations or transformations or a pool of water, sea voyages, adventure — things happening in a plot as opposed to married people or angry relatives sitting around a table getting into an argument. I don't mean in any way to disparage naturalism and what it takes to do it, because it is thrilling when it's done well. But I love ancient oral tales."
"The White Snake," based on a Chinese fable, tells the story of a gentle serpent who transforms itself into a young woman who discovers the joy of being human. It was first performed two years ago at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival; this marks the show's fourth production.
The play probes recurrent themes in her work, Zimmerman says — transformation, transfiguration, "being part of the entirety instead of feeling separate from it. … Longing and travel and unrequited love are themes I'm drawn to as well. And these old tales have taught me a lot about it (all)."
Zimmerman, born and raised in Nebraska, caught the theater bug in London at age 5 when she stumbled upon an outdoor rehearsal of "A Midsummer Night's Dream."
"My parents were both professors, so we spent significant time overseas when I was a child," she says. "And when I came across this rehearsal, at the end of the scene, Oberon ran off, and they all started laughing, and I think it was the joyfulness and seeing adults play like that (that) was as galvanizing to me as the enchantment and the fairy world. I was absolutely fascinated by it."
She went on to earn three degrees in theater and performance studies at Northwestern University. Now in her 20th year as a resident director at Goodman, Zimmerman has received several Joseph Jefferson Awards for her work in Chicago and broke attendance records last summer at the Goodman with her staging of "The Jungle Book." She may be best known for her production of "Metamorphoses" in 2002, which originated at Lookingglass Theatre (where she is still an ensemble member) and went on to Broadway; that production earned her the Tony in 2002.
Following is an edited version of our conversation:
Q: How do you pick your projects?
A: I've often told people in the theater, if you want to get me there, offer me something. Suggest a Shakespeare play. There's no reason for me to leave town; it's going to be at the Goodman or at Lookingglass. This is like my living room. I feel like I even recognize audience members.
Q: What advice would you give a struggling actor or director?
A: Produce yourself. The really difficult thing about being an actor is the passivity that's built around it, the lack of agency. There's a kind of wait-and-see aspect to it. But you can change all that by getting together with your friends and doing the play that you want to do. It's not as though that is necessarily going to be celebrated or make you any money, but it will give you a lot of great experience, you will have a great time, you only get better by practicing. And I realize not everyone can do that … but I think it's a better way to go if you are feeling frustrated and inactive.
Q: What do you do for fun that's not theater?
A: I read and I have a dog. My dog (Beary) died in December, and I have a new puppy, which is a bit stressful. I've never had a puppy before. He's already been introduced to the theater. He's a mix, but my dog sitter speculates there's some Jack Russell Terrier in there. His name is Andy.
Q: Do you have a spiritual practice?
A: I am a meditator; I'm not a good practitioner. I'm a huge reader and have gone to see Thich Nhat Hanh, the Vietnamese Buddhist monk. I feel the Buddhist philosophy has been incredibly useful to me. It's helped me deal with the stress of directing and just the stress of being alive. I can't claim myself to be a Buddhist because I eat meat and I keep a dog who eats meat, and so I'm not following the precepts, but I'm very attracted to it.
Q: What book are you reading now?
A: The "Handbook of Applied Dog Behavior and Training," which is a three-volume scientific text. And Thich Nhat Hanh's "Your True Home" is always on my bedside.
Q: Do you get sad when a show ends?
A: Oh, absolutely. Part of the preciousness and poignancy of the theater is that it's always disappearing. It's going even as we're watching. It's going. And you can't preserve it. In a way, I try not to hang on too much; it's sort of like the sand paintings that the monks make, where the practice of making something that you know is going to disappear … somehow mirrors an awareness that life is passing. And that doesn't mean you don't invest in it.
Q: Do you still get excited by the audition process?
A: I'm excited by all of it. In auditions you really start to think about the show in a very serious way. … I do this group thing that is so useful. I bring (actors) in, in groups of eight to 12, and I'm with them for about a half-hour and I have a series of physical things I do with them, which gives me a lot of information about how they are as people. Their guard is down and they relax, and it's a way to see what it's going to be like to be in a room with them. I've done this for 20 years. I make really seasoned actors, New York people, (do the exercise). It doesn't matter who you are. It's very telling for me. If I like being with you, the audience is going to like being with you on some level. If you're an appealing person with presence and not too much ego, the audience knows that.
Q: Tell me something nobody would know about you.
A: Something that always shocks my cast is how much I know about really junky contemporary television. I quoted something from "Jersey Shore" during "Candide," and Geoff Packard, he played Candide, never got over it. I either quoted Snooki or The Situation, and he never stopped talking about it. People might think that my tastes are sort of highfalutin, which they are, but I think it's wrong to think that sophistication should mean you need to be exclusive. I think people who have a very broad taste, who like a lot of things, that's a sign of sophistication.
CAN GO ONLINE Q: At Northwestern, was there a teacher who believed in you?
A: Frank Galati in graduate school, who was a great mentor to me. My department was performance studies, and we were required to do a solo performance … and I worked so hard on it and it meant so much to me and I was so nervous. … When you finish, you go into your individual conferences with the faculty, and when I went in, Frank said, "This, my dear, is a work of art." I'd never directed anything at that point; I directed myself in this performance. (She begins to tear up.) Even thinking about it now, it sort of took me across some threshold into the possibility that I could make something.
Q: Do you fully appreciate that you're doing what you love?
A: It's really hard. Ira Glass (the public radio host and producer) and I have been friends for a really long time, and we both sometimes look at the want ads and the temp ads and see how much they're paying. We both kind of can't see ourselves in the position that we're in. I lived with (actor and playwright) Bruce Norris for 16 years, and when he won a Tony (in 2012 for his play "Clybourn Park"), I was like, "Oh, my God, Bruce, that's so amazing!" Then I had to think, "Oh, wait. I did that."
Can go onlineQ: What did you find to be surprising about this career?
A: That you are like a traveling salesman. If your shows are successful, you end up on the road all the time. I had one period of 22 months where I was gone 18 months. That weakens your relationships at home in a way that I didn't quite realize. I mean, you're having fantastic adventures — I just did La Scala in Milan (Italy) with my team (staging the opera "Lucia di Lammermoor"). But after five weeks, when I had to fly away, it was a little painful — in the taxi passing the street where my costumer lived, to close the door on my apartment and know I'm never going to see it again. And that happens over and over. I'm very much a country mouse by nature, but theater is a city mouse profession.
Q: You don't have children?
A: No, I didn't, and it's something that I'm sad about intermittently. I'm not sad about it all the time. I just didn't get over my very long and passionate relationship with Bruce fast enough. And then I had another sort of misfire that I didn't get over for years. … But not being married and not having children, you are kind of swimming upstream. You can't go a day without hearing on television or on the radio that family is the most important thing. But I have very intense friendships and I'm very good friends with all my exes, actually, which I'm sort of proud of. But it isn't the same, and I know it's not the same. But I did something else, you know. I think I'm actually in quite a fine place, to tell you the truth, and I have been for a while.

Drawing inspiration
"I love to walk," Mary Zimmerman says. "I have a house in Maine. I love the natural world. I do a whole lot of mental work and thinking about shows when I'm hiking and walking in Maine or walking around with my dog. Something about the ruminating that happens with the body being in motion, that has something to do with it, I feel."

Properly diagnosing disease has typically been limited by human accuracy, report turn-around time, geographic and economic barriers, population-level generalizations and an explosion of digital information at the point of diagnosis. Enlitic?s mission is to assist doctors in making personalized diagnoses by giving them the right data-centered tools. Deep learning can automatically discover clinically-relevant features by first architecting a hierarchy of patterns (loosely modelled on the brain?s own neural networks) and then rapidly updating those patterns upon observing examples. Enlitic is developing a deep neural network of the entire human body that will offer a new way forward for doctors to gain immediate access to the most relevant clinical information across early forms of disease. Enlitic?s vision is to understand and build a network that captures not only emergent points of disease but identifies the interrelated anatomic, metabolic and genomic correlates that give rise to both, disease and health.

} | 237 | How does a stockbroker pick the best stocks?
Quick Answer
There is no system or strategy for picking stocks that is always successful, according to Investopedia. Stockbrokers must choose their own favorite strategies and methods. Fundamental analysis allows stockbrokers to study stocks and any potential influences that may change stock values, and this method underlies typical stock selection strategies.

How does a stockbroker pick the best stocks?
Credit: Eric Kim CC-BY 2.0
Full Answer
Stockbrokers must search for stocks that are likely to maximize profits and minimize losses, as Investopedia explains. The stock selection process involves a method known as fundamental analysis. Following this method, stockbrokers study companies carefully for potential influences that change stock prices, and they make investment decisions based on potential changes. Since increasing stock prices result in higher profits for the investor, stockbrokers are eager to choose stocks that offer strong returns. Choosing the best stocks and never losing money is unlikely because prices are influenced by more factors than stockbrokers can possibly analyze or predict.
Using reports available from the company, stockbrokers identify the impact of influences on key company metrics to predict future changes, explains Investopedia. A variety of factors, including company profitability and the value of a company's debt, influence changes in stock prices. Vendors, customers, governments and competitors may also influence stock prices with their actions and announcements.

} | 340 | More about Aikido
Aikido, one of the few martial arts I have ever practiced. Created by the Japanese master Morihei Ueshiba (1883-1969), the word means "The art (or way) of peace." I remember spending endless nights with my companions, learning to fight in such a way that the adversary’s negative energy is directed against himself.
Ueshiba, who is known by those who practice Aikido as "The Grand Master", left behind a series of philosophical practices, during his conferences, in his poetry and conversations with disciples. Here are a few of his main teachings.
Where to begin the art of peace
The art of peace begins inside you; work to manage to keep it at your side. Everyone has a spirit which can be perfected, a body which can be trained, and a path to follow.
You are here to fulfill these three tasks, and to do so two things will be necessary: maintain calm, and practice the Art in everything you do. None of us needs money, power or status in order to practice the Art; at this precise moment you are one step away from Paradise, and should train now.
The universe and us
The whole universe comes from the same source. This source, which we call life, contains our past, the present, and the future. As man moves forward, he can either dissolve or harmonize his vital energy. Evil is born the moment we start to believe that that which belongs to all, belongs only to ourselves; this causes pride, useless desires, and anger. But anyone not possessed by things, eventually becomes lord of all.
The eight forces
In order to practice the Art of Peace, one must at some point delve alternately into the eight opposing forces which make up the Universe:
Movement and inertia
Solidity and adaptation,
Contraction and distention,
Unification and division.
These are present in everything, from the vast space to the smallest plants; each thing carries a gigantic reserve of universal energy, which can be used for the benefit of all.

#include <tk.h>
Tk_GetGC(tkwin, valueMask, valuePtr)
Tk_FreeGC(display, gc)
Tk_Window tkwin (in)
Token for window in which the graphics context will be used.
unsigned long valueMask (in)
Mask of bits (such as GCForeground or GCStipple) indicating which fields of *valuePtr are valid.
XGCValues *valuePtr (in)
Pointer to structure describing the desired values for the graphics context.
Display *display (in)
Display for which gc was allocated.
GC gc (in)
X identifier for graphics context that is no longer needed. Must have been allocated by Tk_GetGC.
Tk_GetGC and Tk_FreeGC manage a collection of graphics contexts being used by an application. The procedures allow graphics contexts to be shared, thereby avoiding the server overhead that would be incurred if a separate GC were created for each use. Tk_GetGC takes arguments describing the desired graphics context and returns an X identifier for a GC that fits the description. The graphics context that is returned will have default values in all of the fields not specified explicitly by valueMask and valuePtr.
Tk_GetGC maintains a database of all the graphics contexts it has created. Whenever possible, a call to Tk_GetGC will return an existing graphics context rather than creating a new one. This approach can substantially reduce server overhead, so Tk_GetGC should generally be used in preference to the Xlib procedure XCreateGC, which creates a new graphics context on each call.
Since the return values of Tk_GetGC are shared, callers should never modify the graphics contexts returned by Tk_GetGC. If a graphics context must be modified dynamically, then it should be created by calling XCreateGC instead of Tk_GetGC.
When a graphics context is no longer needed, Tk_FreeGC should be called to release it. There should be exactly one call to Tk_FreeGC for each call to Tk_GetGC. When a graphics context is no longer in use anywhere (i.e. it has been freed as many times as it has been gotten) Tk_FreeGC will release it to the X server and delete it from the database.

Acclimatizing Your FH When It Arrives
Acclimatization Procedure
1.Newly arrived fish may suffer severe stress or trauma resulting from sudden exposure to bright light, so be sure to switch off the aquarium lights, and dim the room's surrounding lighting where you open the shipping box. Do not open the box in bright light.
2.Float the sealed bag in the aquarium for 15-20 minutes. Do not open the shipping bag yet. You need to allow the water in the shipping bag to adjust slowly to the temperature in the aquarium, while maintaining a high level of dissolved oxygen.
3.Remove or cut the tied bands at the top of the bag while it is still afloat in the aquarium. Roll the top edge of the bag down one inch to create an air pocket within the lip of the bag. This will enable the bag to float on the surface of the water.
4.Add 1/2 cup of aquarium water to the shipping bag, and repeat the process every 5 minutes until the shipping bag is full.
5.Lift the shipping bag from the aquarium and discard half the water from the bag.
6.Float the shipping bag in the aquarium again, and proceed to add 1/2 cup of aquarium water to the shipping bag every five minutes until the bag is full.
7.Now your fish is ready to be released into the aquarium. Submerge the bag in the aquarium, and slowly allow the fish to swim out from the bag into its new home.
8.Remove the filled shipping bag from the aquarium and discard the water. Try not to release the shipping water directly into the aquarium. | http://frogstone-restday.blogspot.com/2009/09/acclimatizing-your-fh-when-it-arrives.html?widgetType=BlogArchive&widgetId=BlogArchive1&action=toggle&dir=open&toggle=MONTHLY-1222844400000&toggleopen=MONTHLY-1251788400000 | robots: classic

} | 217 | R.I.P. Henri Salvador
One of the greats of the French music scene died of an aneurysm. Henri Salvador was the inventive, humorous French singer who did some of the best music videos EVAH!
Henri Salvador, the velvet-voiced French musician credited with inspiring the bossa nova, bringing rock 'n' roll to France and helping create the music video, died Wednesday, his record label said. He was 90.
Salvador died at his Paris home of an aneurysm, said Carine Herve, of the Polydor label.
Salvador was known for his claps of booming laughter, raucous sense of humor, silken singing and incredible staying power. He worked past his 90th birthday last year and Polydor said he had planned to record a new album in 2008.
Innovation was a constant force in Salvador's long and varied life, which took him from France's South American enclave Guiana to Paris' most prestigious stages — and won the hearts of generations of French fans. (Yahoo)

Not to be confused with Petrifaction.
Stages of death
1. Pallor mortis
2. Algor mortis
3. Rigor mortis
4. Livor mortis
5. Putrefaction
6. Decomposition
7. Skeletonization
Putrefaction is the fifth stage of death, following pallor mortis, algor mortis, rigor mortis, and livor mortis. This process references the breaking down of a body of a human or animal post mortem (meaning after death). In broad terms, it can be viewed as the decomposition of proteins, and the eventual breakdown of the cohesiveness between tissues, and the liquefaction of most organs. This is caused by the decomposition of organic matter by bacterial or fungal digestion, which causes the release of gases that infiltrate the body's tissues, and leads to the deterioration of the tissues and organs.
The approximate time it takes putrefaction to occur is dependent on various factors. Internal factors that affect the rate of putrefaction include the age at which death has occurred, the overall structure and condition of the body, the cause of death, and external injuries arising before or after death. External factors include environmental temperature, moisture and air exposure, clothing, burial factors, and light exposure.
The first signs of putrefaction are signified by a greenish discoloration on the outside of the skin on the abdominal wall corresponding to where the large intestine begins, as well as under the surface of the liver.
Certain substances, such as carbolic acid, arsenic, strychnine, nux vomica, and zinc chloride, can be used to delay the process of putrefaction in various ways based on their chemical make up. At body farms, facilities which study the process of decomposition as well as how these substances affect the rate of putrefaction, cadavers are put in different environmental conditions to study how the process of decomposition can be affected. There are six University Body Farm Research Facilities in the world, all located within the United States, which include the University of Tennessee at Knoxville, Western Carolina University, Texas State University, Sam Houston State University, Southern Illinois University, and Colorado Mesa University. Two prospective body farms will open outside of the United States, in Australia and India.[citation needed]
In thermodynamic terms, all organic tissues are composed of chemical energy, which, when not maintained by the constant biochemical maintenance of the living organism, begin to chemically break down due to the reaction with water into amino acids, known as hydrolysis. The breakdown of the proteins of a decomposing body is a spontaneous process. Protein hydrolysis is accelerated as the anaerobic bacteria of the digestive tract consume, digest, and excrete the cellular proteins of the body.
The bacterial digestion of the cellular proteins weakens the tissues of the body. As the proteins are continuously broken down to smaller components, the bacteria excrete gases and organic compounds, such as the functional-group amines putrescine and cadaverine, which carry the noxious odor of rotten flesh. Initially, the gases of putrefaction are constrained within the body cavities, but eventually diffuse through the adjacent tissues, and then into the circulatory system. Once in the blood vessels, the putrid gases infiltrate and diffuse to other parts of the body and the limbs.
The visual result of gaseous tissue-infiltration is notable bloating of the torso and limbs. The increased, internal pressure of the continually rising volume of gas further stresses, weakens, and separates the tissues constraining the gas. In the course of putrefaction, the skin tissues of the body eventually rupture and release the bacterial gas. As the anaerobic bacteria continue consuming, digesting, and excreting the tissue proteins, the body's decomposition progresses to the stage of skeletonization. This continued consumption also results in the production of ethanol by the bacteria, which can make it difficult to determine the BAC in autopsies, particularly in bodies recovered from water.[1]
Generally, the term decomposition encompasses the biochemical processes that occur from the physical death of the person (or animal) until the skeletonization of the body. Putrefaction is one of seven stages of decomposition; as such, the term putrescible identifies all organic matter (animal and human) that is biochemically subject to putrefaction. In the matter of death by poisoning, the putrefaction of the body is chemically delayed by poisons such as antimony, arsenic, carbolic acid (phenol), nux vomica (plant), strychnine (pesticide), and zinc chloride.
Approximate timeline[edit]
• 1–2 days: Pallor Mortis, Algor Mortis, Rigor Mortis, and Livor Mortis are the first steps in the process of decomposition before the process of putrefaction.
• 10–20 days: Black putrefaction occurs, which is when noxious odors are released from the body and the parts of the body undergo a black discoloration.
• 4 weeks: Soft tissues such as the internal organs begin to liquefy and the face becomes unrecognizable. Leads to skeletonization where the skin, muscles, tendons and ligaments degrade exposing the skeleton.
Timeline for the decomposition of organs in the body:[2]
1. Larynx and Trachea
2. Infant Brain
3. Stomach
4. Intestines
5. Spleen
6. Omentum and Mesentary
7. Liver
8. Adult Brain
9. Heart
10. Lungs
11. Kidneys
12. Bladder
13. Esophogus
14. Pancreas
15. Diaphragm
16. Blood vessels
17. Uterus
Rate of putrefaction is maximum in air, water, soil, and earth. First external sign of putrefaction in a body lying in air is usually greenish discoloration of the skin over the region of caecum, which appears in 12–24 hours. And the first internal sign is usually a greenish discoloration on undersurface of liver. The exact rate of putrefaction is dependent upon many factors such as weather, exposure and location. Thus, refrigeration at a morgue or funeral home can retard the process, allowing for burial in three days or so following death without embalming. The rate increases dramatically in tropical climates.
Factors affecting[edit]
Various factors affect the rate of putrefaction.[3][4][5]
Exogenous (External)[edit]
Moisture and Air Exposure: Putrefaction is ordinarily slowed by the body being submerged in water, due to diminished exposure to air. Air exposure and moisture both can contribute to the introduction and growth of microorganisms, speeding degradation. In a hot and dry environment the body can undergo a process called mummification where the body is completely dehydrated and bacterial decay is inhibited.
Clothing: Loose fitting clothing can speed up the rate of putrefaction, as it helps to retain body heat. Tight fitting clothing can delay the process by cutting off blood supply to tissues and eliminating nutrients for bacteria to feed on.
Endogenous (Internal)[edit]
Sex: No effect.
Condition of the Body: A body with a greater fat percentage and less lean body mass will have a faster rate of putrefaction, as fat retains more heat and it carries a larger amount of fluid in the tissues.[5]
External Injuries: Antemortem or postmortem injuries can speed putrefaction as injured areas can be more susceptible to invasion by bacteria.
Delayed putrefaction[edit]
Certain poisonous substances to the body can delay the process of putrefaction. They include:
Embalming is the process of preserving human remains by delaying decomposition. This is acquired through the use of embalming fluid, which is a mixture of formaldehyde, methanol, and various other solvents. The most common reasons to briefly preserve the body are for viewing purposes at a funeral and for medical or religious practices.
To understand the process of decomposition and how certain substances affect the rate of putrefaction there are facilities known as Body Farms, that subject cadavers to different environmental conditions to see how the rate of decomposition varies. There are 6 Body Farms in the world, all located within the United States.[7] These include The University of Tennessee’s Forensic Anthropologic Facility, Western Carolina Universities Osteology Research Station (FOREST), Texas State University’s Forensic Anthropology Research Facility (FARF), Sam Houston State University’s Southeast Texas Applied Forensic Science Facility (STAFS), Southern Illinois University’s Complex for Forensic Anthropology Research, and Colorado Mesa University’s Forensic Investigation Research Station. The first body farm outside of the United States will open in January 2016 in Sydney, Australia as well as the prospect of one to open up in India.[8] In The United Kingdom there are several facilities that instead of using human remains or cadavers they use dead pigs to study the decomposition process. Pigs are less likely to have infectious diseases than human cadavers and are more readily available without any concern for ethical issues, but a human body farm is still highly sought after for further research.[9] Each body farm listed is unique in its environmental make-up giving us a broader knowledge and research of how different environmental factors can affect the rate of decomposition significantly such as humidity, sun exposure, rain or snow, altitude level and more.

Arianne Cohen wants to read about your sex life. Well, more specifically, she wants to read about all of our sex lives, to learn more about what's possible in sex and relationships.</p> <p>Arianne has spent the past several years compiling thousands of anonymous sex diaries, and she shares them with the world through her <a href=""target="_blank">book</a>, her <a href=""target="_blank">site</a>, and media partnerships all over the web.</p> <p>If you're interested in keeping a seven-day Sex Diary, <a href=""target="_blank">visit the Sex Diaries Project here</a> (be sure to click on the link from here so that Arianne knows who's coming from the Bitch site)! We'll also post an anonymous Sex Diary here on the Bitch blogs every Tuesday in March (Arianne won't run any diaries without explicit permission from the diarist and will change all identifying details), so even if you'd rather not keep a diary you can still participate. </p> <p>We asked Arianne a few questions about the Sex Diaries Project for you to read before you get started. If you have more questions for her be sure to leave them in the comments!</p> <p><strong>What guidelines do you give people who are writing these diaries?</strong><br /> Just tell the truth! The instructions inside the program are pretty extensive, and there's also <a href="">a FAQ page</a>.</p> <p><strong>When people write a diary, what is your process to break down and analyze the information?</strong><br /> The analyzing actually came about by necessity—originally, I just published diaries as a column, with no commentary. But I began to notice trends that I just couldn't ignore. For example, <a href=""target="_blank">the book</a> talks quite a bit about the three different types of couples, each with their own goals, pros, and cons. That discovery came about first when I saw a consistent pattern—that some couples seemed to be very different from others—and then I sorted the diaries to see if I could organize couples in any way that was meaningful, using basic qualitative coding that I learned in college. That took months, and at one point I had six categories of couples. I eventually defined the three categories, and for the next bunch of weeks, honed those categories each time I read a new diary. Then I put it into words, and wrote up exactly what I noticed. </p> <p><strong>Based on feedback you've received, what do people get out of writing these diaries? Out of reading them?</strong><br /> People come to the website for voyeurism, and they stay for self-discovery. I think we all have a narrative (or three) in our head: "I'm super sexy and everyone wants to sleep with me" or "I'm going to be alone forever" or what have you. And what many diarists find is that when they read back over their first couple days of diarying, that narrative is very different from what they're seeing. </p> <p><strong>Who have you found to be most eager to write a diary? What kind of backgrounds do they have and what kinds of relationships are they in?</strong><br /> The people who spend the most time in the project are those with the time and inclination, who are often college students and women ages 25-29. This said, when men or other demographics hear about the project and think it'll be useful to them, they come right in. </p> <p><strong>Have there been certain demographics of people that you wish you heard more from?</strong><br /> I wish I heard more from lesbians. At least once a week I get emails from lesbians asking for more lesbian diaries on the website. To which I respond: Come on ladies! Keep a diary! </p> <p>Yes, you heard it here: Lesbians are both private, and incredibly curious about other lesbians' diaries. </p> <p><strong>Are you more or less interested in sex after reading 1500+ diaries?</strong><br /> More. It's a primary way that we connect and disconnect from each other, and also such a great summary of how people behave in the world. People really do behave in the bedroom and their relationships just as they behave in life. </p> <p><strong>What's your ultimate goal with this project?</strong><br /> World domination! I kid. I'm building the project into a hub where people can come to read, write, or talk about diaries, all anonymously, on their own terms. </p> <p><strong>Is there anything you feel like it's important for our readers to know?</strong><br /> I get a lot of questions about anonymity. The registration page asks for real first and last names because they're needed to give legal consent. But the diaries are stored in a separate database. And to be absolutely honest: at this point, there's so many that I don't even notice who's who anymore, even when I do know them in real life! </p> <p><strong>To keep your own diary and read some excerpts from the project, visit the <a href=""target="_blank">Sex Diaries Project website</a></strong>.</p> Arianne Cohen books Sex Diaries Project Bitch HQ Tue, 28 Feb 2012 23:19:03 +0000 Kelsey Wallace 15500 at | http://bitchmagazine.org/tag/sex-diaries-project/feed | robots: classic

Syria and Arab responsibility
Laila Takla , Saturday 2 Feb 2019

What is happening in Syria is a tragedy and an offence against the entire Arab world. To aggravate the pain and sorrow, the management of this crisis is in the hands of outsiders who are indifferent to the Arabs’ wellbeing, or worse, do not wish them to develop and prosper.
Each of those outsiders cares only for their own interests and ambitions and the conflicts between them further reduce hopes for a just and peaceful solution. Meanwhile, as foreign powers lock horns over Syria, the numbers of dead, wounded, refugees, displaced persons and orphaned children climb by the thousands per day. The overwhelming majority of these casualties are citizens of a country that has been and should remain a cornerstone of the Arab world.
Millions of civilians remain in grave peril, both those who continue to face the hazards of warfare and destruction, and those condemned to the bitter cold, disease and starvation of refugee camps. I have just read a UNESCO report about children freezing to death in Syria. The Syrian people have endured eight years of suffering. Yet, they are ready to endure longer, bound by the idea that “it is better to lose half our people than to lose our country, our land and our dignity.”
The plight of Syria and its people should compel Arab nations to take strong and positive stances to protect this people, to help them attain peace, to fight the terrorism that threatens all Arab peoples and, at the same time, to prevent non-Arab powers from controlling the fate of a fellow Arab state. If Arab states unified their position and asserted their collective weight, non-Arabs would not be able to play a major role in shaping the future of the Arab region.
The foreign powers vying for control over Syria as though squabbling over guardianship rights to an orphaned child are heedless of the true welfare of that child. The US jumps from one contradictory position to the next. It entered Syria to fight terrorism (and to protect Israel, of course). Suddenly, Trump announces his determination to withdraw US troops from Syria. Then John
Bolton says that the US will remain, Pompeo reaffirms “Washington’s commitment to the security of the region” and the State Department announces that “there is no timetable for withdrawal.” Then Trump tweets, “we lost Syria a long time ago. We don’t want to stay there forever.”
Turkey had set its sights on occupying a portion of Syrian territory, putting the Kurds there in its crosshairs. But Erdogan’s dreams of conquest collapsed and he proved unable to fulfil his pledges, made to his “people across the length and breadth of Anatolia”, to topple Al-Assad and massacre the Kurds. The US currently sees Turkey as the US’s heir in the fight against terrorism in the region, as though it had the right to appoint such an heir and despite of the fact that US government agencies are very well aware of the radical differences between Washington’s aims and those of Ankara in Syria.
The two sides cannot even agree on who the “terrorists” are. Washington points to the Islamic State (IS) group while Erdogan fingers the Syrian Democratic Forces and the Kurdish People’s Protection Units. In a recent letter to The New York Times, Erdogan betrays his true intentions in Syria. There is documented evidence of his role in supporting IS with arms, money and personnel. Erdogan’s Turkey is supposed to be the US’s ally in Syria, correct? Ankara’s aim is to kill Kurds and to support IS while Washington ostensibly wants to fight IS and protect the Kurds.
Iran has ambitions of its own in Syria and to realise its agenda it sends in planeloads of weapons. Russia is also protecting its interests there and supplying the regime in Damascus with arms. Now, despite Russia and Turkey’s differences over Idlib, their leaders are putting their heads together over how to fill the vacuum now the US plans to leave Syria.
As though this spectre is not already painful enough to awaken the collective Arab spirit, Israel has seized on all available opportunities to enter the fray and further its bid to annex the Golan. Netanyahu, himself, has acknowledged Israeli missile strikes against Iranian locations in Syria. Even France, despite its own domestic woes, wants its share of the fight against terrorism in Syria and then contradicts itself and supports the terrorist Al-Nusra Front.
The Arab boycott of Syria has left that country prey to Turkish and Iranian designs, Russian mediation and American decrees and it kept the Arabs watching from the sidelines as though the tragedy were happening in Timbuktu.
The meetings between some Arab officials and Syrian ministers, the demands for Syria’s return to the Arab League, the visit by an Arab head-of-state to Syria and the restoration of some Arab diplomatic ties with Damascus, are all positive actions but they are still more in the nature of timorous and tentative gestures. What is needed is a sensible and foresighted decision that tells the world unequivocally what the Arab position is with respect to a fellow Arab country and its people. Are we ready and able to do this?
If the Arabs are unable to contribute to formulating a peaceful solution to the Syrian crisis, are they also unable to take the proper decisions needed to back a peaceful solution and to send the world the message that Syria is not alone? Certainly, such a stance is consistent with the desire of the vast majority — if not all — of the Arab people to come to the rescue of their Syrian brethren. Is the spirit of Arabism strong enough for us to summon the will to realise a Syrian-Arab reconciliation or, at least, rapprochement that will enable us all to concentrate on the confrontation against the real enemy that threatens us all?
The return of Arab ambassadors to Damascus and the return of Syria to the Arab League may not solve the problem, but it is a step and a message that has become necessary in order to save a suffering people and a country that has so many enemies thirsting to grab a part of it and divide it up. Iran will gain no advantage from Syria’s return to the Arab League as long as the members the league remain vigilant. Rather, the question we should ask is whether the Arab government’s disapproval of another Arab government has become an obstacle to saving the Syrian people.
UN Security Council Resolution 2254 calls for negotiations, peace and protecting a people. It does not oblige anyone to commit to the selfish whims of other countries. Has the Arab League, which froze Damascus’s membership when Qatar was chair, lost all moral and humanitarian commitment to the Syrian people? The Arab League is an accurate reflection of the state of Arab governments.
Its performance is only as good as the degree of advancement and enlightenment of its members.
An Arab League conference was just held in Beirut to discuss development challenges. Some mention should have been made of the suffering of the Palestinian people. It would have also been appropriate to mention the tragedy of Syrian refugees. We hope this will be rectified in the forthcoming summit in Tunisia.
In Egypt, the Syrians who have sought refuge here are not confined to camps and tents. They live among us and together with us as part of the fabric of social, economic and cultural life in their “second homeland”. We welcome their projects and we respect their determination and resolve.
Ultimately, the Syrian government and the Syrian national opposition have a great responsibility to bear. For the sake of the Syrian people, they should not perpetuate their enmity towards each other. Both sides love their country and believe that they are working to advance its welfare. Political maturity and the true spirit of patriotism should compel them to overcome their stubbornness and intransigence for the sake of their country and its people, above all. Can Arab states work to promote inter-Syrian reconciliation or rapprochement?

} | 623 | The Tomato Patch: Cellphone’s no replacement for cowhide
Posted on Thursday, January 10, 2013 at 11:50 am
As someone who is still learning how to do a few simple tasks on his “smartphone” nearly two months after he purchased it, I was not enthused to read that industry experts expect a majority of Americans to use their smartphones and other such electronic devices as “mobile wallets” within the next decade.
Proponents of mobile wallets claim this will benefit the consumer, allowing us to save money and get a lot of swell deals simply by waving our smartphones at the checkout counter.
I suspect the profit motive and the ability to lay off more store and bank employees is the real motivating factor here, but I admit I lack the expertise to make a convincing argument. (Whenever somebody says, “This is good for you,” I automatically assume it is really good for them.)
As someone who once used “Luddite” as his password I tend to be a little resistant of change. (Some would say it’s more than a little.) I stopped using that password when I sensed that I was giving up too much information about where my sympathies lay to the computers I was using and that they crashed more frequently in retaliation.
But I remain unconvinced that my old leather wallet with some cash, a credit card, a debit card, driver’s license and insurance cards is any less mobile or secure than my new cellphone. My smartphone is larger and heavier than my older, dumber cellphone, so it is about the same size and weight as a wallet and both travel in a pants pocket.
Based on a lifetime of experience, I don’t tend to lose or even misplace wallets and have never had one stolen.
I have only gone into panic mode over thinking that I had lost my wallet twice.
Once was in 1969 when I was on military leave in Japan and had rented a tiny 360cc Honda car to tour the countryside. As I approached a tollbooth I reached into my back pocket and found no wallet. That was a bad feeling. “How am I going to get through the tollbooth and back to Tachikawa Air Base with neither dollars nor yen to my name?” I thought. I swerved over to the side of the road and began searching my person and my rental car. Fortunately my wallet had slipped out of my pocket and had wedged itself under the seat in the cramped interior.
About a decade later my wallet slipped though a tear in the back pocket of my jeans as I perched on a barstool, having paused for a burger and a beer in a bistro near Old Dominion University in Norfolk. I had paid my tab and left without realizing my wallet was on the bar floor. Fortunately, an honest person found it and I was able to retrieve it the next day when I retraced my steps.
I have only owned a cellphone for five years or so and I have misplaced it countless times, having to search for it by getting people to call me while I listened for the ringtone. (Cellphones must be slipperier than wallets. They should make one out of cowhide.)
Once I was so convinced I had lost my cellphone that I replaced it. About six months later I found it jammed between the seat and transmission tunnel in my Mazda Miata.
I also left a cellphone in a pants pocket and ran it through both the washer and dryer before realizing my mistake.
The cellphone was DOA.
I’m pretty sure a wallet, plastic cards and dollar bills would have survived that ordeal.
I hope they take their time with mobile wallets..

This is interesting !!!!! when I told the children that I'm making "buffalo wings" for Eyba's birthday party...the first thing that came out from their mouth were....yeak!!!!!! we don't eat buffalo. Well..look's like the name of buffalo wings tend to mislead many and for those who are in the same boat with my children here's an explanation from Wikipedia :-
Buffalo winghot wing or wing is a chicken wing section (drumette or flat) that is traditionally deep-fried unbreaded and then coated in sauce. Classic Buffalo-style chicken wing sauce is composed of a vinegar-based cayenne pepper hot sauce and butter.[1] Buffalo wings are traditionally served with celery sticks and blue cheese dressing.
It's chicken wings either baked or deep fried. As for Asian we prefer deep frying.
Cayenne pepper hot sauce and melted butter or margarine are the basis of the sauce. Buffalo wing sauce can be made with a variable amount of heat/spiciness, with the names of these sauces generally corresponding to the level of heat, such as mild, medium, or hot. Typically, the wings are deep-fried (although they are sometimes grilled or baked). The wings are usually fried in oil until they reach close to a golden brown color. They are then drained where they can either be placed in a bowl with sauce or seasoned with salt and pepper. Following this, one covers the bowl tightly and shakes to coat the wings. As an alternative to waiting to coat the wings until after they are cooked, one can also put seasoning over the wings in a sealed bag and shake them until they are coated evenly. Afterwards, the wings are arranged on a baking sheet and baked until they are cooked thoroughly. Wings can then be served dry with sauce on the side.
I used paprika and cajun for my's delicious and yummy....try this you sure love it.
Buffalo Wings aka Spicy Chicken Wings
Print Save Recipe
For the wings:
2 cups canola oil
2 kg chicken wings
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons butter
Hot Sauce (use whatever hot sauce you like, but Isued paprika and cajun used about 1 tsp each.
2 tbsp oyster sauce 1 tbsp hoisin sauce
For homemade Blue Cheese dressing:
1 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
1/3 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1/4 cup blue cheese, crumbled
Salt & pepper, to taste
The only real prep work is to preheat the oil in a deep skillet or deep-fat fryer if you own one. You want the oil to get to about 375 degrees F. While the oil is heating, chop off the tips of each chicken wing and throw them away. Then cut each wing in half at the joint. You will get a "drummette" and a "double-bone"
Season the bunch with salt and pepper. This is a good time to preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
If you are going to make your own Blue Cheese dressing, chop the garlic, onion and parsley while you are waiting for the oil to heat up.
Fry the wings in the oil until they are golden. Be careful when working around hot oil. The splatter hurts. You will want to move them around while they are frying so not to stick to the pan. Don't try to fry them all at once. Do them in batches. They should take about 6 to 8 minutes for each batch to fry. Remove them to a plate covered with a couple of layers of paper towels to drain the oil. Then place them in a large bowl.
In a small saucepan, heat the butter over medium heat. Add the hot sauce, oyster and hoisin sauce. How much hot sauce you add depends on how hot you like your wings and the heat of the sauce. There is no way I can tell you how much to add. It is a personal preference. Always start with less and add more if it isn't hot enough.
For 2 tablespoons of butter, I would start with 2 tablespoons of hot sauce for mild and go from there. A 2 to 1 ration of hot sauce to butter is HOT, a 3 to 1 ratio is EXTREME in my opinion. But let your taste buds be the judge.
Add the sauce to the wings in the bowl and toss together with kitchen tongs. Here's where I differ from the original recipe. Remove the wings from the bowl with the tongs and place them on a baking pan. You can line the pan with foil to help with clean up. Just don't crowd the wings or they will steam rather than bake. Bake the wings for about 15 minutes.
How to make the Blue Cheese dressing:
In a small bowl, add all the ingredients together. Gently stir together until well mixed. At this point you can put cover and put the bowl in the refrigerator until the wings are ready. If you like to serve your wings with cold blue cheese dressing, make ahead of time and chill.
If you want to get fancy, spread the wings and celery out on a platter with the bowl of blue cheese dressing in the center.

Comcast steps closer to unbundling HBO

No crap. Of course I know it is a promo. What stinks is having to play the game repeatedly and at the same time, never knowing the true future costs (and current) for anything as Comcast does its best to obfuscate everything to sucker you in.
By cancelling cable completely I win all the time because my cost to watch over the air is zero.
That 80.00 target is just a potential number. Comcast more than likely will figure out a way to make it higher... much higher. So if I play the game (and I probably will) I'll have to mark it on the calendar like I said previously.
What if I wait another month or two? Comcast keeps dropping the promo price each time... This deal is just so low I don't see them taking a bigger loss.

} | 554 | I am a cultural historian with an interdisciplinary background in archaeology, art history, religion, and cultural anthropology. My work cross disciplinary boundaries in order to explore the role of art and artifacts in past cross-cultural encounters, change and exchange. In my research I apply object-centered analysis to the production and patronage of material and visual cultures, from stone sculpture to glass vessels, in order to reveal the many ways that objects mediate cultural exchange and connectivity, past and present. I believe that past visual and material cultures present fertile ground to reflect on core questions of the human experience, including the way that ethnicity, race, and gender are constructed and perceived. The historical themes and topics I focus on—e.g., diaspora and exile, cultural change and exchange, and religious practice and representation—encourage reflection on of the variety of human experience, past and present, and of the constructedness of boundaries that we erect between ourselves and others. I received my Ph.D. from Duke University in the History of Judaism with a minor in Classical Studies (2017), and have held fellowships at the University of Michigan (Frankel Center for Judaic Studies) and at the Metropolitan Museum of Art (Dept. of Greek and Roman Art).
My current research considers the role of visual culture in mediating cultural contact in the ancient Mediterranean and Near East, with a particular focus on diaspora communities. My current monograph, Image and Empire: Jewish Diaspora and Visual Arts in the Late Antique Mediterranean, examines the artistic output of Jewish diaspora communities in the ancient Mediterranean basin to shed light on the varieties of diaspora experience and the diversity of Jewish life, 200 C.E. – 500 C.E. During this period, the Jewish diaspora spanned the Mediterranean basin, with thriving communities in Italy, Spain, Asia Minor, Greece, Africa, and the Near East. A wide variety of media was produced and consumed within these communities, including monumental architecture, mosaics, sarcophagi, epitaphs, gold glass, and frescoes. The remains of this deep visual engagement encompass multiple spheres of human activity—from synagogues to necropoleis, communal to individual—and provide broad geographic and cultural scope to explore questions about art, identity, and difference in the ancient world. I examine this rich evidence in chapters devoted to five themes: 1) cultural and religious learning, 2) politics, power, and display, 3) religious practice and representation, 4) death and commemoration, and 5) collective myths and memories of homeland. Across these themes, I engage in a broader exploration of the ways in which art has been enlisted in diasporic projects of connecting past and present, host and homeland, and communities across the late antique world.
Some questions I am thinking and writing about:
• What role did visual and material culture play in the formation of communities in the late antique Mediterranean?
• How did Jews navigate the intensely visual world of the ancient Mediterranean?
• How did the relative tolerance and multicultural environment of the Mediterranean in late antiquity impact the development of Jewish visual culture and aesthetics?
• What did it mean to ‘be Jewish’ in the context of the cultural world of the late antique Mediterranean?
• What, if anything, is Jewish about ‘Jewish art’ in late antiquity?
• What role does shared visual and material culture play in shaping collective memories and myths of the homeland in diaspora?
• Is a geographically ‘centered’ narrative of trauma and loss is reflected in the art of Jewish diaspora? | http://www.seanpburrus.com/ | isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2019-43

} | 463 | TWO POEMS by Leslie Harrison
/ / Issue 10, Poetry
[No. 118]
How snow and distance equal absence the page untouched
the page a white blankness the way ink recedes from these
cold vistas its absence a kind of reverence how the moon
is also an absence untouched as if he knew it was beyond
mere wood mere blade how burdened the humans are
in their boats their roads and towpaths how there is always
something happening in the middle distance how there are
always mountains always rivers how the birds are a trick of
perspective some with wingspan like a temple’s curved roof
some reduced to black nicks in the empty sky how I too
have seen foxes in a grove under moon under stars though
mine breathed but carried no fire how I’ve longed for that
dark blue winter evening the night a pendulum the night
a fulcrum the year tips then slides across while in the sky
the stars light up as hundreds of foxes coalesce in the field
make their way toward a tree how they’re gathered there
in the winter night like candles how he must have known
the name of this how in this language we call them a leash
we call them the earth

To begin think of wind river sand silk the various strands
currents how falling moving how leaving can be exactly
that benign a cessation of resistance a species of quiet
abnegation think then of a flame on its wick flickering
in the drift of air stubborn and still alight holding on
in the draft that sifts through a summer screen the leaves
greenly afire on their piers their waxy wicks the sleeve’s
small collapse against your arm in the breeze think
of the current of time how it too swirls eddies and then
abates as sticky afternoon slips into sticky dusk itself
slipping into moonrise into full dark think of the lit window
and you candled there you inside the moving the breaking
heart of this thing think of the glass doing its invisible best
the shell the egg of your dwelling the way it cradles you
how soft the body’s flesh how there are two of you
the unformed fetal you asleep innocent as weather and
the you that paces in all that yolk light the light that spills
thick and angular through screen and glass the light
that falls across the trimmed the orderly lawn the way
your shadow hushes the crickets afraid there in the sudden
dark the way it releases them as you vanish into song | http://fourwayreview.com/two-poems-by-leslie-harrison/ | isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2020-10

} | 1,103 | In the small hours of Oct. 15, a squad of mercenaries made up of former non-coms from Britain's version of the Green Berets took a look at Togo's border with Ghana. They did not like what they saw.
The place was crawling with Togolese soldiers and police, searching every vehicle with unaccustomed vigor. This was clearly not going to be a good day to go in and assassinate Togo's president, Lt. Col. Gnassingbe Eyadema.
So the nine-man hit team returned to the Ghanaian capital of Accra, where it was disbanded. In Britain, a backup squad of 14 more mercenaries was left cooling its heels. President Eyadema not only lived to tell the tale, but to announce to a largely uninterested world that he had been saved by a tipoff from "friendly powers."
Just who hired the mercenaries, and why the procurer wanted President Eyadema killed, remains a mystery to this day. But the last-minute tipoff, it is known, came from the British Foreign Office. The sequence of events strongly suggests, moreover, that there was a conflict - or at least a mix-up in signals - between the Foreign Office and the "dirty tricks" arm of the British Ministry of Defense.
The story, which has emerged from interviews in Whitehall, the seat of British government, and from bits and pieces that have gotten into the press here, runs as follows:
The core of the murder team was made up of alumni of Britain's Special Air Services. An elite World War II commando outfit, the SAS has carved out a unique role for itself in post-war Britain. Its expert killers have plied their trade in the Persian Gulf and Ulster, and two SAS men advised the West German commando squad that rescued the Lufthansa hostages in Mogadishu.
Since theirs is a specialized trade with few civilian outlets, discharged SAS veterans are a fertile source for mercenary recruiters.
Enter Tom Finan. A British-trained Canadian soldier and former lieutenant colonel in the Canadian tank corps, he paid out at least $200,000 of somebody's good money to arrange the Togo affair. To lead the hit squad, he recruited a former SAS sergeant, David "Darkie" Davidson.
Finan apparently assembled his two hit teams around Hereford, a sleepy British market town that is home for the one active SAS regiment, the 22nd. Ex-Sgt. Davidson lives there, and his wife is a civilian worker for the regiment.
Before a former SAS member goes off on a paid mission, however, the drill requires that he get an informal OK - "a wink and a nod" - from a serving SAS officer.
Davidson, said to have been a man who always went by the book, told friends that he checked out the Togo operation with serving SAS officers, and was told as late in the game as Oct. 10: "The government has no view on this."
Since Togo is a far-off, French-controlled place of which little is known in Britain, it is conceivable that their one-time superiors gave the ex-SAS team the "wink and the nod." After all, the boys were getting $9,000 each as a down payment - with another $9,000 promised when the Eyadema job was done.
In any event, as late as Oct. 14 - the day before the assassination was to take place - Finan evidently thought there was clear sailing. On that date, he sent a friend in London a postcard from Accra saying:
"Weather here is just excellent . . . Good business and some time to rest."
Little did he know that the British Foreign Office had already moved to abort his caper. Word of the planned coup had been picked up by agents of the Foreign Office's Secret Intelligence Service.
A warning to the Togolese president, Whitehall now says primly, was transmitted through "diplomatic channels" on Oct. 13, just two days before the Eyadem assassination was scheduled.
Foreign Office officials explain that London would have been horribly embarrassed by any link to an African coup at this delicate moment, when the United States and Britain are trying to win friends in Black Africa - no eliminate presidents.
For the record, the Ministry of Defense says it knows of no meeting between Davidson and an SAS officer on Oct. 10 or any other date.
But the entire incident brings to the surface a battle that has been raging between the Foreign Office and the SAS over the mercenary question for more than a year.
The diplomats want a tough law passed that would prohibit the recruitment and use of mercenaries in any country ruled off bounds by the British government.
The military, however, prefers the present law. It was enacted in 1870 and merely outlaws any mercenary traveling by ship. In a jet age, this makes all British mercenaries legal and keeps open the job market for SAS veterans.
If this explains the curious pattern of non-events in Togo, it still leaves unanswered who financed, Finan. Who was behind the plot. Indeed, why anybody bother about Togo puzzles experts here. The place has an oil refinery - but no oil. It does export karite nits, but not very many and they are considered an exotic taste.
To be sure, Eyadema has enemies. Amnesty International has a list of 20 Togolese political prisoners he is said to have had tortured to death last year, and this a regarded as just a sample.
Then there are the friends and relatives of Togo's first post-independence president, Sylvanus Olypio. He was personally shot to death by Eyadema in 1963, a necessary step to Eyadema's elevation to Togo's highest office four years later.
There also are the Ewes, a tribe that always nurses a sense of grievance. Their tribe was neatly divided in half by the post-World War I arrangement that gave Britain what is now Ghana and France what is now Togo. Diplomats here speak darkly of "irredentist" feeling on both sides of the border.
But none of these people are likely to have had the kind of cash Finan was flashing.
Inevitably in Africa, discussion turns to Libya's extremely rich and equally mercurial Col. Muammai Qaddafi. He is said to have made a $3 million gift to the Togolese people that wound up in the pockets of Eyadema's ministers. Indeed, Finan's clean up team in Britain was thought to have counted on help from disgruntled Togolese army officers, upset at their failure to share in the Libyan bounty.
One man, ex-col. Finan, could clear up the whole mystery. It is said here that the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, who are having troubles of their own these days, would like to question him.
But the impression given in Whitehall is that nobody wishes the Mounties much success. Finan's tale would embarrass a lot of people. | https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1977/12/15/strange-saga-of-a-british-hit-squad/2977bd4b-4579-4812-aa10-4fb8dbe22ae2/ | isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2018-47

} | 2,263 | And yet, to say truth, reason and love keep little company together nowadays.
Image result for images of bottom midsummer night's dream
I pray thee, gentle mortal, sing again:
Mine ear is much enamour’d of thy note;
So is mine eye enthralled to thy shape;
And thy fair virtue’s force perforce doth move me
Methinks, mistress, you should have little reason
love keep little company together now-a-days; the
more the pity that some honest neighbours will not
make them friends. Nay, I can gleek upon occasion.
Thou art as wise as thou art beautiful.
(Act III, scene i, lines 139-150)
Read the passage above carefully and then analyze what Shakespeare is really trying to teach the audience member or reader here. You should consider the SOAPSTone (Speaker, Occasion, Audience, Purpose, Tone) of Bottom’s comment, and you may want to consider last night’s blog as well.
As always, don’t forget to follow the rules of standard written English and respond to at least one other classmate’s response in this thread.
MND blog #5
The will of man is by his reason sway’d.
Tonight please reread Act II, scene ii of A Midsummer Night’s Dream and then paraphrase and analyze the following lines, which Lysander speaks to Helena. Consider not only what they mean literally but also what they might have to do with a theme of the play.
The will of man is by his reason sway’d;
And reason says you are the worthier maid.
Things growing are not ripe until their season
And touching now the point of human skill,
Reason becomes the marshal to my will
And leads me to your eyes, where I o’erlook
Love’s stories written in love’s richest book.
MND blog #4
Fare thee well, nymph.
Tonight, please finish reading Act II, scene i of A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Then, examine Helena’s statement below:
Your wrongs do set a scandal upon my sex.
We cannot fight for love as men may do.
MND #3
Hold, or cut bowstrings!
As you read Act I, scene ii (or afterwards), consider the following question: what’s funny about this scene?
The nature of comedy is very difficult to analyze and usually ends up making everything much less funny. A concept to keep in mind, though, is that comedy is usually based on character, language and situation. Which elements do you see in this short scene?
Please write a comment here where you describe how Shakespeare uses any of the three elements for comedic effect. As you do so, please use specific evidence from the text (actually quote it!) to support your claim and explain what effect this has on the reader or the audience.
As always please follow the rules of standard written English and respond to at least one other comment in this thread.
MND blog #2
Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind.
Tonight, please read Act I, scene i, of A Midsummer Night’s Dream (pp. 7-23, rectos only!) Before you read, however, it would probably be a good idea to look at the summary on p. 6.
Once you have finished the reading, please paraphrase Helena’s soliloquy below. Then explain what this reveals about Helena and her experience with love? What can we all learn from this? Compare and/or contrast this to the lessons we learned about love in Romeo and Juliet.
As always, don’t forget to comment on at least one other response in this thread.
Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind;
And therefore is wing’d Cupid painted blind:
Nor hath Love’s mind of any judgement taste;
Wings and no eyes figure unheedy haste:
And therefore is Love said to be a child,
Because in choice he is so oft beguiled.
As waggish boys in game themselves forswear,
So the boy Love is perjured every where:
For ere Demetrius look’d on Hermia’s eyne,
He hail’d down oaths that he was only mine;
And when this hail some heat from Hermia felt,
So he dissolved, and showers of oaths did melt.

Image result for chagall romeo and juliet image
Tonight, please write a response to today’s class period by answering the question below. Please consider all the class discussion and analysis we’ve done regarding the play, the lithograph, and orchestral suite, to help you in your response. As always, please follow the rules of standard written English and respond to at least one other comment in this thread.
In Shakespeare’s play, Prokofiev’s Romeo and Juliet Suite, and Chagall’s painting of Romeo and Juliet, the author, the composer and the artist structure their work with intention. What aspects of Romeo and Juliet do Shakespeare, Prokofiev, and Chagall choose to emphasize and to leave absent? What effect do these choices create when you consider them in context of the events of the play?

O my love, my wife!
Tonight you must finish reading the play and notice all the differences between the film and the the text. Then, paraphrase and analyze Romeo’s soliloquy, Act V, scene iii. What metaphors, references, and comparisons does he use? How does this help the reader or audience member understand his anguish? What insight about life and death is Shakespeare conveying to his audience?
O my love! my wife!
Death, that hath suck’d the honey of thy breath,
Hath had no power yet upon thy beauty:
Thou art not conquer’d; beauty’s ensign yet
Is crimson in thy lips and in thy cheeks,
And death’s pale flag is not advanced there.
Tybalt, liest thou there in thy bloody sheet?
O, what more favour can I do to thee,
Than with that hand that cut thy youth in twain
To sunder his that was thine enemy?
Forgive me, cousin! Ah, dear Juliet,
Why art thou yet so fair? shall I believe
That unsubstantial death is amorous,
And that the lean abhorred monster keeps
Thee here in dark to be his paramour?
For fear of that, I still will stay with thee;
And never from this palace of dim night
Depart again: here, here will I remain
With worms that are thy chamber-maids; O, here
Will I set up my everlasting rest,
And shake the yoke of inauspicious stars
The doors of breath, seal with a righteous kiss
A dateless bargain to engrossing death!
Come, bitter conduct, come, unsavoury guide!
Thou desperate pilot, now at once run on
The dashing rocks thy sea-sick weary bark!
Thy drugs are quick. Thus with a kiss I die. [Falls.]

O woeful day!
Tonight, you have been assigned to read Act V, scene i.
Before you do that, though, please re-read Act IV, scene v, and then paraphrase and analyze the reactions of Lady Capulet, Nurse, Paris and Capulet to finding Juliet dead, Act IV, scene v, lines 49-70. How are these reactions appropriate to their characterizations and their individual relationships to Juliet?
Accursed, unhappy, wretched, hateful day!
Most miserable hour that e’er time saw
In lasting labour of his pilgrimage!
But one, poor one, one poor and loving child,
But one thing to rejoice and solace in,
And cruel death hath catch’d it from my sight!
O woe! O woeful, woeful, woeful day!
Most lamentable day, most woeful day,
That ever, ever, I did yet behold!
Never was seen so black a day as this:
O woeful day, O woeful day!
Beguiled, divorced, wronged, spited, slain!
Most detestable death, by thee beguil’d,
By cruel cruel thee quite overthrown!
Despised, distressed, hated, martyr’d, kill’d!
Uncomfortable time, why camest thou now
To murder, murder our solemnity?
Dead art thou! Alack! my child is dead;
And with my child my joys are buried.
R&J blog #14
Come, vial.
Tonight, please read Act II, scenes i, ii, AND iii . Then, please paraphrase and analyze the “Come, Vial” speech. After your paraphase, analyze how Juliet has changed over the course of the play so far.
Come, vial.
What if this mixture do not work at all?
Shall I be married then to-morrow morning?
(Laying down her dagger)
What if it be a poison, which the friar
Subtly hath minister’d to have me dead,
Lest in this marriage he should be dishonour’d,
Because he married me before to Romeo?
For he hath still been tried a holy man.
How if, when I am laid into the tomb,
I wake before the time that Romeo
Come to redeem me? there’s a fearful point!
Shall I not, then, be stifled in the vault,
To whose foul mouth no healthsome air breathes in,
And there die strangled ere my Romeo comes?
Or, if I live, is it not very like,
The horrible conceit of death and night,
Together with the terror of the place,–
As in a vault, an ancient receptacle,
Where, for these many hundred years, the bones
Of all my buried ancestors are packed:
Where bloody Tybalt, yet but green in earth,
Lies festering in his shroud; where, as they say,
At some hours in the night spirits resort;–
Alack, alack, is it not like that I,
So early waking, what with loathsome smells,
And shrieks like mandrakes’ torn out of the earth,
That living mortals, hearing them, run mad:–
O, if I wake, shall I not be distraught,
Environed with all these hideous fears?
And madly play with my forefather’s joints?
And pluck the mangled Tybalt from his shroud?
And, in this rage, with some great kinsman’s bone,
As with a club, dash out my desperate brains?
O, look! methinks I see my cousin’s ghost
Seeking out Romeo, that did spit his body
Upon a rapier’s point: stay, Tybalt, stay!
Romeo, I come! this do I drink to thee.
(She falls upon her bed, within the curtains.)
R&J blog #13
Shall I speak ill of him that is my husband?
This weekend, please read Act III, scene ii, and then analyze Juliet’s transformation in the section of the text I have copied below. Explain how Juliet changes over the course of this section of the text, provide specific textual evidence of that transformation, and — here’s the tricky part!– make sure you show how that text really demonstrates the change.
O serpent heart, hid with a flowering face!
Did ever dragon keep so fair a cave?
Beautiful tyrant! fiend angelical!
Dove-feather’d raven! wolvish-ravening lamb!
Despised substance of divinest show!
Just opposite to what thou justly seem’st,
A damned saint, an honourable villain!
O nature, what hadst thou to do in hell,
When thou didst bower the spirit of a fiend
In moral paradise of such sweet flesh?
Was ever book containing such vile matter
So fairly bound? O that deceit should dwell
In such a gorgeous palace!
There’s no trust,
No faith, no honesty in men; all perjured,
All forsworn, all naught, all dissemblers.
Ah, where’s my man? give me some aqua vitae:
These griefs, these woes, these sorrows make me old.
Shame come to Romeo!
Blister’d be thy tongue
For such a wish! he was not born to shame:
Upon his brow shame is ashamed to sit;
For ’tis a throne where honour may be crown’d
Sole monarch of the universal earth.
O, what a beast was I to chide at him!
Will you speak well of him that kill’d your cousin?
Shall I speak ill of him that is my husband?
But, wherefore, villain, didst thou kill my cousin?
That villain cousin would have kill’d my husband:
Back, foolish tears, back to your native spring;
Your tributary drops belong to woe,
Which you, mistaking, offer up to joy.
My husband lives, that Tybalt would have slain;
And Tybalt’s dead, that would have slain my husband:
All this is comfort; wherefore weep I then?
Some word there was, worser than Tybalt’s death,
That murder’d me: I would forget it fain;
But, O, it presses to my memory,
Like damned guilty deeds to sinners’ minds:
‘Tybalt is dead, and Romeo–banished;’
That ‘banished,’ that one word ‘banished,’
Hath slain ten thousand Tybalts. Tybalt’s death
Was woe enough, if it had ended there:
Or, if sour woe delights in fellowship
And needly will be rank’d with other griefs,
Why follow’d not, when she said ‘Tybalt’s dead,’
Thy father, or thy mother, nay, or both,
Which modern lamentations might have moved?
But with a rear-ward following Tybalt’s death,
‘Romeo is banished,’ to speak that word,
Is father, mother, Tybalt, Romeo, Juliet,
All slain, all dead. ‘Romeo is banished!’
There is no end, no limit, measure, bound,
In that word’s death; no words can that woe sound.

} | 445 | Bigg Boss 14 is touted to be one of the most controversial seasons ever. And now it seems that the controversies that began inside the house are now tumbling out in the real world.
All the ardent BB watchers must have witnessed, Kavita Kaushik walking out of the Bigg Boss 14 house in a jest post locking horns with co-contestant Abhinav Shukla and his wife, Rubina Dilaik. Kavita hasn't spoken to any media after her exit from the show.
But what's amusing is Kavita's husband Ronnit who usually keeps a low key and doesn't interact with media has come out in the open and has levelled serious charges against Abhinav. Shocking isn't it?
Kavita Kaushik
Ronnit reveals that Abhinav drunk-called his wife and asked her to meet at odd hours
Ronnit tweeted. "Well let me put the truth out there.. the not so gentleman we're talking about has a severe alcohol problem and used to get pissed drunk and message KK through the night wanting to talk and meet up at all odd hours. So much so that she had to call the cops on him more than once" (sic).
He also claimed that Abhinav requested them to use their house for a shoot as he couldn't shoot at his residence.
Ronnit's tweet alleging Abhinav as a drunkard
In another tweet, he said: "This is the same guy who literally begged us to give him our house for a film he wanted to make. The same film which we did for free & gave our house coz he couldn't shoot at his own place coz of obvious reasons! aur ab yeh bol raha hai ussi lady ko ki maarega usko? Mard? Really?? (sic)."
After reading Ronnit's tweets fans has an emotional meltdown, some of them supported Kavita-Ronnit, while some supported Abhinav-Rubina.
Check out some Tweets below:
fans thrash Abhinav for his behaviour
When Kavita and Rubina locked horns inside the BB house
For the unversed, uring the fight, Kavita also threatened Rubina to reveal some very personal and embarrassing things about Abhinav. Kavita asked Rubina, "Do you know your husband's truth?" To which, Rubina replied, "Himmat hai to bol (Speak up if you have the courage)."
Kavita said that she would speak once outside the house. Abhinav stood beside Rubina and asked, "What will you tell?" However, he did not interfere much between the two.
Rubina had recently shocked her fans on the show by revealing that she and Abhinav were heading for a divorce before they entered the Bigg Boss house. She had said that if the two had not lived in the Bigg Boss 14 house together, they would have never made an effort to stay with each other under one roof. | https://www.ibtimes.co.in/abhinav-shukla-calls-my-wife-odd-hours-has-drinking-problem-claims-kavita-kaushiks-husband-830884 | isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2021-04

} | 756 | Rawhead and Bloody Bones
One of the more curious ghosts, or perhaps more a monster, is Rawhead and Bloody Bones. The original story comes from Great Britain, but there’s a wholly American twist that is essentially a separate ghostly being.
The original Rawhead and Bloody Bones, also known as Tommy Rawhead or simply Rawhead, is part of an old nursery rhyme from England:
Rawhead and Bloody Bones
Steals naughty children from their homes,
Takes them to his dirty den,
And they are never seen again.
Rawhead is used primarily as a bogeyman to frighten children. The spirit is said to dwell near ponds, and so is a cautionary tale to keep children from drowning. However, Rawhead is also said to live in old, dark cupboards, and perhaps most frighteningly, under stairs. The story goes that if you peek between your ankles into the space between stairs, especially stairs leading into a basement but any open stairs will do, you will see the monster, his head scalped and blood running down, sitting on a pile of bloody bones. If he sees you, you’re done for.
The concept of Rawhead has been around since at least the late seventeenth century. John Locke mentioned the creature in his writing in 1693. It was also somewhat mentioned in the Italian Comedy Buggbear as early as 1564. It’s been a staple bogeyman in Great Britain for centuries.
Where things become stranger is the American version. This particular version is specific to the American Midwest, specifically Missouri, though any of the south central states of the US might be home to the spirit. In the American version, Rawhead is a razorback boar with an ugly snout and red markings, thus the “rawhead name”.
BloodyBonesFinAccording to the legend, Rawhead was the companion of Old Betty, a “conjure woman” of some repute who lived alone in the woods. Her only friend was the boar, who had taken a similar liking to the old woman. One day a hunter came upon Rawhead and, not realizing it was the old woman’s pet, killed it and took it home to eat. In some versions, the hunter knows Old Betty and Rawhead and is trying to get revenge on her for “crossing” him (cursing the man), and sometimes he is a farmer whose crops have failed due to Old Betty. In any case, Rawhead is killed and eaten by the man.
Learning her only friend is dead, Old Betty becomes enraged and conjures the spirit of the animal from the dead. Here, too, there are variations, one involving pictures made from a potion, another with Old Betty or possibly the hunter burying Rawhead in a human cemetery. In any case, the creature Old Betty summons is not simply the razorback beast that had been her companion. Instead, Rawhead and Bloody Bones is created, a humanoid body with a boar’s skull atop, bathed in blood.
The creature then stalks its killer and corners him. What ensues sounds more like a version of Little Red Riding Hood. The hunter asks why the creature has such foul red eyes, and it tells him “the better to see your grave”. He asks why it has such sharp fingers, and the creature says, “the better to rip you apart” and so on. The final line is almost directly from the Brother’s Grimm; when asked why the creature has such large tusks, it says “the better to eat you just like you ate me!” The hunter then suffers a grisly fate, but the creature, fueled by hate, stalks off into the night and becomes somewhat like the original bogeyman, stealing children away in the night to feed upon their flesh and bones.
Both versions are equally unpleasant and dangerous. The original was the inspiration for a short story by Clive Barker called Rawhead Rex. In the story, Rawhead is actually an aspect of an ancient pagan god. It was made into an awful 80s horror film with a creature that looked more hilarious than horrifying. The original story, however, is still very scary. Oddly enough, the creature in the movie was made to look a bit like a monstrous, humanoid boar, with a pig-like snout and tusk-like teeth.

Sluts on the march in 2011.
Toronto, Ontario -- It's been over a year now since Canadian Constable Michael ''Puttanesca'' Sanguinetti, with a single comment, motivated thousands of scantily clad women to march in cities all across the world, proudly waving placards proclaiming that they are sluts. Oddly enough, he was never knighted for this unique contribution to global hilarity, and since then the Slutwalk movement, along with Constable Sanguinetti, have sort of faded away and been largely forgotten, much like Pete Best and certain pungent smelling cheeses once popular in the mid 1920s. But all that is expected to change soon, as the good Constable was, unbeknownst to him, recently recorded in a pub stating in between burps that he "never knew there were so many dumb bitches in the world." With the lightning speed of our Digital Age the recording has already been played thousands of times around the world, and has reignited the firestorm of controversy.
In response, Sonya Barnett and Heather Jarvis, co-founders of SlutWalk, have released a statement saying that they are officially changing the name of the movement to Dumb Bitch Parade. "We're going to show Constable Sanguinetti, and sexists like him, that it is women who are in control of the disparaging labels used to describe us, not men." She added that several Dumb Bitch Parades were already being planned in large cities around the world.
Later on that day in the same pub, when confronted by two female reporters and asked for a comment, an extremely inebriated Mr. Sanguinetti lunged at them and missed, lost his balance and dove face first into the floor. After slipping and falling a few more times, he got to his feet with the aid of several slightly less intoxicated patrons, and bellowed,"Leave me the hell alone, you cocksuckers!"
As of press time, there was no word on whether Ms. Barnett and Jarvis were planning on changing the name of the movement yet again.

Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by a germ (bacterium) called
Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This germ primarily affects the lungs and may infect anyone at any age.
In the United States, the number of TB cases steadily decreased until 1986 when an increase was noted; TB has continued to rise since. Today, ten million individuals are infected in the U.S., as evidenced by positive skin tests, with approximately 26,000 new cases of active disease each year. The increase in TB cases is related to HIV/AIDS, homelessness, drug abuse and immigration of persons with active infections.
How is TB Contracted?
TB is a contagious or infectious disease that is spread from person-to- person.
A person is usually infected by inhaling the germs which have been sprayed into the air by someone with the active disease who coughs.
However, inhaling the germ does not usually mean you will develop active disease.
A person's natural body defenses are usually able to control the infection so that it does not cause disease. In this case, the person would be infected, but not have active disease. Only about 10% of those infected will actually develop
TB in their lifetimes.
Active disease can occur in an infected person when the body's resistance is low or if there is a large or prolonged exposure to the germs that overcome the body's natural defenses. The body's response to active TB infection produces inflammation which can eventually damage the lungs. The amount of damage may be quite extensive, yet the symptoms may be minimal. The usual symptoms of disease due to TB are:
-Fever -Night sweats -Cough -Loss of appetite -Weight Loss -Blood in the sputum
(phlegm) -Loss of energy
Diagnosing TB
To diagnose TB, your clinician will gather five important pieces of information:
-Symptoms -History of possible exposure and onset of symptoms -Tuberculin skin test or PPD -Chest X-ray •Sputum test
Tuberculin Skin Test
The tuberculin skin test (or PPD) is performed with an extract of killed tuberculosis germs that is injected into the skin. If a person has been infected with tuberculosis, a lump will form at the site of the injection--this is a positive test. This generally means that TB germs have infected the body. It does not usually mean the person has active disease. People with positive skin tests but without active disease cannot transmit the infection to others.
Chest X-Ray
If a person has been infected with TB, but active disease has not developed, the chest X-ray usually will be normal. Most people with a positive PPD have normal chest X-rays and continue to be healthy. For such persons, preventive drug therapy may be recommended.

} | 165 | One of the biggest commercial flops of the late 1980s also happens to be one of the most wonderfully imaginative, whimsical, and downright silly movies of the last several decades. Not that you'd expect any less from Terry Gilliam, especially when he was in his prime.
The Adventures of Baron Munchausen is a fable within a story, a twisted romp where Leviathon and Venus and the man in the moon coalesce around a civilized, pugnacious British Baron. Robin Williams shows up, hammily. Uma Thurman disrobes. And Eric Idle gets to enjoy what's arguably his best non-Monty-Python role.
It would be impossible to describe the plot in less than an hour. And even then you wouldn't have a good sense of the joy that drives it. But if you have two hours to carve out of your life tonight-and if you have an age-appropriate kid to share it with-go ahead and load it up. Even when it doesn't make sense, it makes entertaining viewing. [Amazon Prime] | https://gizmodo.com/the-adventures-of-baron-munchausen-5956240 | isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2019-04

} | 1,506 | Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria: What Is It & How to Deal With It
Written by: Depression Alliance Staff Updated: 04/08/2018
Book an Appointment
Do you often feel like you are constantly under pressure? Do you avoid trying new things due to fear of failure? Are you in a constant state of panic in your relationships? Is your anxiety unbearable? Do you often feel depressed and alone, and like you are constantly rejected by friends, family, or your spouse or partner? If you identify or relate to any of the above questions, then you may suffer from Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria, or RSD.
Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria is a relatively common yet little known emotional disorder that can cause heightened anxiety levels, depression, and negatively impact relationships.
If you believe you suffer with RSD, you aren’t alone. Read on to learn more about what Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria is, the most common symptoms, and how to live with it.
What is RSD or Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria?
So, what exactly is Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD)? This particular mental condition involves extreme emotional sensitivity that most often revolves around criticism or rejection. RSD is often sparked by emotional pain or anxiety triggered by the perception that an individual is being rejected.
The key word here is perception. An individual with RSD might feel like he or she is being rejected or criticized, but the situation may not really exist. This is also known as a self-fulfilling prophecy. An individual with a self-fulfilling prophecy believes that something is true, and even acts as if it was true. A person will anticipate a particular outcome to a situation, and this expectation changes his or her emotional behavior. As a result, an individual will set him or herself up to receive the feedback that he or she expects, which only reinforces the belief.
RSD is also commonly triggered by a sense of failure, or falling short of meeting his or her own personal expectations or the expectations of others.
Rejection Definition
Before we get too far into the science behind RSD, let’s first define rejection, dysphoria, and rejection sensitivity, and how all three relate to RSD.
According to Merriam-Webster dictionary, the definition for “rejected” is “a: to refuse to accept, consider, submit to, take for some purpose, or use; b : to refuse to hear, receive, or admit.”
Dysphoria Definition
The word “dysphoria” is actually Greek for “difficult to bear”. The definition of “dysphoria” is “a state of unease or generalized dissatisfaction with life.”
Dysphoria often causes or accompanies other mental illnesses. For example, extreme stress, grief, anxiety, toxic relationships or other environmental issues can all cause dysphoria. Some common types of dysphoria include gender dysphoria or hysteroid dysphoria.
Rejection Sensitivity
Humans need to form close bonds with other humans. However, some internal, as well as external, factors can threaten relationships. These factors can set off psychological alarms in an individual with RSD. Some individuals have a higher sensitivity to these issues than others.
In some cases, people may sense threats and overreact to them unnecessarily, or the threats may not exist at all. Rejection sensitivity, or hyperacute rejection is a self-defense mechanism that one uses to protect him or herself from rejection. Hyperacute rejection often stems from social rejection by parents, spouses, friends, or loved ones. As a result, this false sense of rejection can carry through a person’s life, and wreak havoc on relationships and overall mental health.
RSD & ADHD: Is There a Connection?
Although RSD can impact any individual, RSD cases are more common in people with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, or ADHD. RSD typically triggers the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, or (HPA), which is the body’s stress system. This is because the nervous system in many people with ADHD immediately responds to a sense of rejection. This ultimately leads to rejection sensitivity.
As a result, people with ADHD are often seen as “weak” or “overly sensitive”. This is because emotional responses hurt them more than people without ADHD.
Furthermore, some studies show that in addition to people with ADHD, RSD is also common in people with asperger’s syndrome or asperger’s disorder.
What Are the Symptoms of RSD?
Rejection-sensitive dysphoria sufferers often endure various depressive symptoms. Some of the most common symptoms include the following:
• Overreacting
• Experiencing a meltdown or mental breakdown
• Easily angered or generally short-tempered
• Loss of self-esteem
• Increased or extreme anxiety
• Suicidal thoughts
• Loss sight of desires and goals
• Avoiding social relationships
• Struggling with relationships
• Developing eating disorders
• Avoiding challenging or competitive situations
• Social withdrawal and detachment
Other Symptoms
RSD sufferers are often easily embarrassed, anxious, and are generally good at hiding their sensitivities. RSD sufferers’ random episodes of emotional outbursts or anger can often be confused with other mental issues. Some of these mental conditions can include bipolar disorder; a personality disorder or borderline personality disorder, particularly in passive-aggressive people; post-traumatic stress disorder; obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) or even Alzheimer’s Disease.
However, when comparing RSD sufferers with bipolar disorder, episodes of depression, anxiety, and/or anger are often brief. These emotional outbursts associated with bipolar disorder sufferers are often triggered by events rather than emotional cycles.
There is also a fine line between RSD and atypical depression. Atypical depression causes severe symptoms, such as weight gain, loss of interest in social relationships or social withdrawal, severe fatigue and suicidal thoughts.
Yes, there are many RSD questions that remain unanswered. Can people without ADHD also experience rejection sensitive disorder? Although most people with ADHD or even adult ADHD also suffer with RSD, studies and research also who that RSD is learned and genetic.
How To Treat RSD or Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria
Many people with ADHD or adult ADHD find comfort in knowing that there is a name for extreme rejection sensitivity. In almost 100 percent of cases, rejection sensitivity is an unknown part of ADHD. Although it has proven to be genetic, childhood or adult trauma can make it worse. The more people with RSD understand the condition, they better they feel.
So, how do people with RSD treat or live with the condition? Like any mental illness or disorder, there are medications available. Guanfacine is the most common type of medication used to help treat RSD symptoms. Although guanfacine was originally designed as a blood pressure medication, studies have shown that it can also help relieve RSD symptoms.
For example, a study performed by Harvard University showed that increasing the guanfacine medication dosage achieved a 40 percent higher response rate.
Psychotherapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy treatments is another treatment option. However, many psychologists and experts believe there are better treatment alternatives. This is because RSD emotions often take over so suddenly and overwhelm the mind. As a result, it can take time for someone with RSD to calm down after an episode.
Suffering with RSD might seem hopeless. However, there are some things you can do on your own to help treat and deal with RSD:
1. Stay On Top of Emotions. It can be incredibly difficult, but try to stay ahead of your emotions. For example, if you feel a breakdown coming on, then try to process your emotions rationally. Let go of your false sense of perfectionism. RSD sufferers should also remember that whatever is causing them to feel rejected or emotional might not really exist.
2. Get the Right Diagnosis. As we mentioned above, RSD can be confused with other mental illnesses and mood disorders. If you are experiencing even a handful of depressive symptoms or RSD symptoms, then be sure to get a firm diagnosis. This will allow you to take the necessary steps to understanding and treating your mental disorder.
3. Seek Professional Help. There is nothing wrong with speaking with a licensed counselor or psychologist about your emotions. A licensed mental health counselor or professional can also educate you on how to best cope with extreme sensitivity, rejection sensitivity, and adult ADHD.
4. Reduce Overall Stress. Keeping stress levels low will ultimately reduce mental breakdowns, emotional outbursts, and severe sensitivity. RSD and adult ADHD are more manageable when individuals make a solid effort to take care of themselves physically and mentally.Engaging in enjoying activities and healthy habits can help manage emotions, anxiety, and moods. For example, regular exercise, hobbies, and eating a healthy diet are all small yet effective ways to help.
5. Medication. As we briefly explored above, there are different medications available to help curb extreme emotional sensitivity, depression, anxiety, and feelings of rejection. For example, a medication like guanfacine is commonly prescribed to individuals with RSD or adult ADHD. However, there are a number of natural approaches that you can take to control your emotions.
Living With RSD
All in all, living with RSD can be a challenge, but individuals can still live a happy, healthy, quality life. Once individuals understand the condition, and gain perspective about what RSD is, how it affects them, and their “trigger” factors, they can begin to take strides to help gain control over their emotions.

Seeing Ryan Newman's crash/wreck reminded me of 3 other NASCAR crashes: Dale Sr. in 2001, Dale Sr. at Talladega in 1996 where he hit the wall, landed on the drivers side door and then got hit on the roof by another car, and Bobby Allison in 1988 at Pocono he was hit directly in the drivers side door after blowing a tire. I'm wondering if perhaps NASCAR will take Newman's car to their R & D center for inspection to add/modify safety features. Prayers for Ryan Newman and his recovery.

Ok I know absolutely nothing about racing so I’m coming at this as an ignorant lil bean so if this is wrong keep that in mind: Shouldn’t the driver who bumped him be held responsible in some way? I mean who thinks bumping somebody going nearly 200 mph is going to go well in any scenario especially one with a ton of cars around who won’t be able to react at top speeds to another car spinning out. It just seems like he was selfishly risking his competitors life for the sake of a potential win (when he still lost in the end) and I don’t see at all how that’s okay but idk anything about cars like I said so 🤷

Time to take another from the world of F1, Only one block move allowed. Making the second move would have gotten him penalized in a way that would change the outcome of the race for the driver. Double block moves are not allowed due to safety reasons. Glad to see all the other safety designed into the car that saved his life.

Fujimoto Wins 2nd-Straight Kanto Regionals 5000 m
by Brett Larner
Emerging from nowhere to win last year's Kanto Regional University T&F Championships men's 5000 m with the memorable words, "I feel like I woke up in someone else's life," Taku Fujimoto (Kokushikan Univ.) did it again, winning a three-way sprint finish against #1-ranked university man Akinobu Murasawa (Tokai Univ.) and Asian half-marathon jr. area record holder Suguru Osako (Waseda Univ.) to take his second-straight Kanto 5000 m title on May 22 at Tokyo's National Stadium. Expected competition from rivals Tetsuya Yoroizaka (Meiji Univ.) and Benjamin Gandu (Kenya/Nihon Univ.) never materialized as Murasawa, who missed a World Championships 10000 m qualifying mark by less than a second at last month's Hyogo Relays, was relentless in pushing the pace through humidity and wind. Osako and Fujimoto, both of whom broke 3:48 for the first time last weekend in the Kanto Regionals 1500 m, sat on his shoulders, steadily applying the pressure. Murasawa tried to get away with a long surge over the final km but, although he managed to hold off Osako, Fujimoto's last kick proved too strong. Fujimoto took the win in 13:49.69 with Murasawa just behind in 13:49.91 and Osako another step back in 13:50.32, reiterating that his surprise win last year was far from a fluke.
The Div. 2 men's 5000 m was also interesting as newcomer Joseph Onsarigo (Kenya/Sozo Gakuen Univ.), coached by Samuel Wanjiru's mentor Stephen Mayaka, outran Takushoku's pair of Kenyan aces John Maina and Duncan Muthee for the win in 13:53.28. First-year Mitsunori Asaoka (Tokyo Nogyo Univ.) was the first Japanese finisher, 3rd overall in 14:05.93. Further back, Muthee, the winner of last weekend's Kanto Div. 2 10000 m, battled Ikuto Yufu (Komazawa Univ.), who outkicked Maina last weekend for the Kanto Div. 2 1500 m title. The 1500 m champ vs. the 10000 m. champ over 5000 m, and although both relatively underperformed Yufu came out ahead, 6th in 14:13.99.
The half-marathon is one of the events that sets the Kanto Regionals meet apart, ten laps of a difficult, twisting, hilly course through and around the National Stadium run in two sections with starts timed three minutes apart. Conditions this year were flatulently awful, with nearly 30 degree temperatures, high humidity, strong winds and unrelenting sunshine. Times were accordingly among the slowest on record. The lead pack in the Div. 1 group, including two-time defending champion Cosmas Ondiba (Kenya/Yamanashi Gakuin Univ.) and 2009 Ageo City Half Marathon winner Shota Hiraga (Waseda Univ.), set off on course record pace in complete disregard of the conditions, and without exception all of them paid for it.
Eventual winner Hirotaka Tamura (Nihon Univ.) never made an attempt to run among the leaders in the early stages, only advancing to take control in the last quarter of the race. 4th-placer Soichiro Ichikawa (Waseda Univ.), a virtual no-name among the three-deep Waseda squad, likewise held back and advanced late in the race in a brilliant performance that fell just 3 seconds short of earning him the runner-up spot. Ondiba and Hiraga paid for their early speed, finishing only 6th and 7th, while Tamura's brother Yusuke Tamura (Josai Univ.) rounded out the top 8. The Div. 2 heat was more conservative, as a large pack led by last year's winner and Hakone Ekiden Sixth Stage record holder Kenta Chiba (Komazawa Univ.) held together throughout the race, winner Daiki Nomoto (Takushoku Univ.) pulling away from Chiba only in the final km.
In the weekend's other distance events, women's 10000 m champion and first-year student Mai Shinozuka (Chuo Univ.) came back to double with another win in the 5000 m. Kanto university women's distance running is relatively weak compared with the men's competition as most of the top women go to the Kansai region, but with a double title to name less than two months into her university career Shinozuka is someone whose name may be worth filing away.
Jobu University first-year Shun Sato also got attention with a strong breakaway win in the men's Div. 2 3000 m steeplechase, winning in 8:52.95 against more experienced competition. Sato's time would have been good enough to win the far deeped Div. 1 heat, where Kosei Yamaguchi (Josai Univ.) won in 8:53.74.

The corporate regional spring track championships wrapped up this weekend with the East Japan Jitsugyodan T&F Championships in hot, humid and windy Kumagaya, Saitama. The big news at the meet came in the women's 5000 m, where 10000 m junior national record holder Megumi Kinukawa (Team Mizuno) emerged from nearly four years of illness and injury to take her first competitive win in memory, running 15:37.50 to beat Kenyan Felista Wanjugu (Team Univ. Ent.) and World Championships marathon team leader Yoshimi Ozaki (Team Daiichi Seimei). Although still short of a World Championships B-standard, Kinukawa's run was her first time under 15:40 in almost four years and a large step in the right direction ahead of next month's National T&F Championships. After the race Kinukawa, who was a star at Sendai Ikuei H.S. at the same time as the late Samuel Wanjiru (Kenya), told journalist Tatsuo Terada, "I didn't think I was ready to run like this. It's been three or four years of darkness, but I think Samuel was there to give me some of his strength. I'd say the doorway to a comeback opened up about 1 cm. I don't want it to swing back shut, so I'll just keep pushing it open."
Hiroko Shoi (Team Nihon ChemiCon) was strong in the women's 10000 m with a PB of 32:34.00 for the win over the pro debut of university star Kasumi Nishihara (Team Yamada Denki) who was 2nd in 32:50.55. National record holder Yoko Shibui (Team Mitsui Sumitomo Kaijo) was 8th in 33:46.70, while marathoner Yoshimi Ozaki (Team Daiichi Seimei) was 11th in 34:00.41.
Apart from Kinukawa and Shoi, Japan-based Africans swept the distance events at the championships. The most interesting race came in the men's 5000 m, where 2008 world jr. XC champion and 2006 world jr. 10000 m champion Ibrahim Jeilan (Ethiopia/Team Honda) had a narrow win over 2010 and 2008 double world jr. 3000 mSC champion Jonathan Ndiku (Kenya/Team Hitachi Cable), 13:25.71 to 13:27.76. Ndiku did chalk up one win, taking the 1500 m in 3:42.28. Long-distance man Yuki Sato (Team Nissin Shokuhin) took 3rd in the 1500 m in a new PB of 3:44.80, afterwards expressing satisfaction as he looks toward the 5000 m for his first World Championships team.
Japanese 10000 m all-comers record holder Josephat Ndambiri (Kenya/Team Komori Corp.) had a win in the men's 10000 m, 27:39.21 over past Kenyan XC champion Gideon Ngatuny (Kenya/Team Nissin Shokuhin). Grace Kimanzi (Kenya/Team Starts) rounded out the weekend's results with a successful double in the women's 1500 m and 3000 m.

Noguchi Back to Training at 1000 km a Month Level
translated by Brett Larner
How is your leg?
When do you think you'll be back to racing?
I don't have any solid plans yet but I'd like to try a half-marathon sometime this summer. I don't want to be impatient, so when it's time to work I want to do it seriously and when it's time to back off I want to do that just as seriously. Also in terms of balancing my training and my daily life, I want to keep that on-off pattern. I want to get to the point where after the race I can feel like I ran it well.
You're here in Tokushima Prefecture this time to help raise funds for disaster relief efforts in the northeast.
After the earthquake I wondered what I could do myself to help the victims. I'm grateful that the organizers of the meet helped make it possible for me to be here today to do work toward that end. It's important that all of us, the athletes who are here in the stadium today, participate from the heart. The sooner I make a comeback the sooner I can run from the heart too, and I hope that that will help give inspiration to the people who need it.
In 2004 you ran in the Tokushima Ekiden as an invited athlete. Could you give us a message for all your fans here in Tokushima?
The first time I came to Tokushima was for a training camp in 2001. I've been here at least ten times since then, so for me it's a place full of memories. I'm very disappointed that I wasn't able to run here today but I want to come back and run here again once I'm fully ready.
Mizuki Noguchi - Born in Mie Prefecture, age 32
At the 2005 Berlin Marathon Noguchi set the Japanese and Asian marathon record of 2:19:12, a mark which still makes her the all-time third-fastest woman. Including her gold medal at the Athens Olympics she has won five of her six marathons, her sole loss a silver medal at the 2003 World Championships. She has largely stayed out of the public eye since her injury at December's National Jitsugyodan Women's Ekiden Championships.

} | 326 | View Full Version : What are you views on negative margins?
06-06-2009, 07:24 PM
To date, the ONLY truly semantic minimalistic validating layout that controls heights of columns with no hacks or extra markup that I have found uses negative margins. I want to know what the general community really thinks of negative margins before I implement it.
I've heard conflicting views on whether it is appropriate to use negative margins. Here for example: http://www.bennadel.com/blog/1174-Negative-CSS-Margins-Are-Not-Cool.htm?&_=0.15954031921355138#comments_18024
This guy states that it is better to use negative margins for quick little fixes like titles and such rather than using it for main layout manipulation.
However, in this article here http://www.search-this.com/2007/08/01/the-positive-side-of-negative-margins/, the author stresses that negative margins should not be used to fix the mistakes that we make, like moving titles around, but instead is appropriate and valid for main site layout.
Has any globally recognized group ever commented on this issue? The general consensus is that we shouldn't be using tables for layouts, what about negative margins?
What do you think, are they appropriate? If so when? If not, why?
06-07-2009, 01:00 AM
I didn't know anyone disapproved of negative margins.
Okay, they can be overused a bit, and so carry the same stigma as absolute positioning. But it's silly to not use them if it's the simplest course of action; it's a valid layout technique.
06-07-2009, 01:07 AM
If there were a good reason not to use them, they wouldn't be conforming.
06-08-2009, 06:52 PM
Sutha, either that was a spam post, or you ought to clarify what on earth you mean. It's your very first post, your grammar makes it hard to know what your point is, and the random link, well that has nothing to do with our conversation. So either add something meaningful or I will alert the admins that there is another spammer on board.
Gsnedders, do you know of any reasons why we shouldn't use them? Just curious. | http://www.codingforums.com/archive/index.php/t-168340.html | robots: classic

} | 547 | Marvell Gaze - word that is key?
I have discussed the sun and our closest stars recently, which reminded me of the term “marvel gaze.” The term “gaze” is synonymous with stars and “star gazing” is exciting to me as I write this and prepare for my exit from the chase as I prepare for my new studies in space science.
So if the term “gaze” is associated stars such as the sun does that mean marvel is too?
I suggested in Finding Forrest Fenn and this blog that marvel is associated monuments and marvel comics, but could it also be associated with the star gazing? The sun is a star.
It just so happens that Marvell is a type of sun dial found in gardens. Perhaps this is why Mr. Fenn talks about his gardens and his gardening ability.
Forrest Fenn is a collector of many things and he will always talk about one of his most prized possessions and that is the arrow head that he found with his father when he was 9 years old. The Marvell sundial in the cover photo is distinctly known for the arrowhead dial.
If marvel instructs the seeker to use an obelisk as a sundial then the blaze is likely the sun. That explains why the poem uses “found” in the line “if you been wise and found the blaze;” since we see the blaze or the sun everyday, it has already been found. That would explain why Forrest says, “Playing a hunch is not worth much in the search and those who start out by looking for the blaze, are wasting their time,” and why we need to follow the clues.
Every question Fenn had asking about the blaze, he struggled or refused to answer it, but for this one, I am sure he was chuckling by the response!
Hi Forrest, I would like to know if the blaze can be found during the day without a flashlight. Thanks, Ron
Perhaps your question is wrought with trickiness Ron. Are you really asking if the blaze could be in a cave where it is dark during the day, thus the need of a flashlight? If there is no subterfuge intended in your question then I would say yes.
I mentioned in my “Phantom Knows” post, the suspicious shadow of Mr Fenn on the cover of his book too far to walk. If marvel gaze is a sun/obelisk combination then that shadow that is cast certainly explains why we must look quickly down.
This method explains how the treasure can be in a precise spot. Mr. Fenn has twice been tripped up with the Freudian slip stating the treasure is buried. This technique almost certainly guarantees the treasure is buried and explains why he said there is no need to dig up old out houses - I seems to suggest that we need to dig up something else.
When Forrest said a few were in tight focs with a word that is key, the words "tight focus" make me think of the sun/shadow focus to a specific spot.
I am sure if you went back and looked at some scrapbooks, you will find some subliminal uses and symbols representing sundials.

The guides of Copper Canyon Adventures trips are one of the main reason why the trips are so wonderful.
The three most important differences between our guided and independent journeys are:
First, You will learn more about the Chihuahua al Pacifico train and the natural and cultural history of the Copper Canyon on a fully guided trip than on an independent journey. In addition, you are more likely to visit areas and people you might not otherwise had even known about—people and places that are the true hidden treasures of the Copper Canyon.
Second, Your guide will also overcome whatever language barrier might exist between yourself and the people with whom you want to interact. English is not widely spoken in the canyon region, and having a bilingual guide is invaluable to fully enjoying your trip.
Third, Your guide on a fully guided trip is there to make sure your vacation proceeds exactly as you want it to--he or she is not there to "herd you around" or make you follow some rigid itinerary, but rather to act as a facilitator to ensure your trip is great!
Regardless of whether you choose a fully guided or independent journey, you will have the comfort of having a customized trip where all the details (reservations, train tickets, etc.) have already been arranged and confirmed. Either trip option is a good one, depending on your personality, vacation goals and budget.

Chicago Cubs connected to Spokane
SPOKANE, Wash. - After being drafted in the 8th round by the Rangers, 21-year-old Kyle Hendricks wasn't sure about his future, which he made clear in his 2011 interview with KXLY. "It was pretty hectic," the right hander explained. "Figuring out where I'm going and all that. But now I'm here and I'm getting more comfortable as the days go by. So the season should be fun."
While Hendricks' lone season with the Indians might've been "fun," Hendricks' handful of appearances with the club hardly caught the attention of the Indians staff.
"He actually worked mostly out of the bullpen for us that year." Remembers Indians PR Director Bud Bareither, "I think he had thrown, you know, a fair amount of innings with Dartmouth, so they wanted limited innings. So yeah, he worked mostly out of the bullpen. Few innings here, few innings there, and did well - but I don't think honestly anyone took note of him at the time."
Five years removed from being an afterthought for the Indians, Hendricks now finds himself on the game's biggest stage, with Cy-Young worthy numbers and more than just a memory of Spokane. Earlier this year, the right hander proposed to Emma Cain, a Lilac City native whom he met during his stint in Eastern Washington. If the Cubs' game 7 starter gets in trouble tonight, Manager Joe Maddon just might turn to another Indians Alum, reliever CJ Edwards, known affectionately four years ago in Spokane as "the string bean flinger."
"He was really a character," described Bareither. "He came as a 48th rounder. South Carolina, a little town of a thousand people or so. He was just a little tooth pick. The skinniest kid in the world, but he stepped onto that mound and threw like Randy Johnson."
So if the Cubs get a win in Cleveland on Wednesday, baseball purists might credit an 8th rounder from the Ivy League and a 48th rounder from South Carolina, but we'll tip our cap to two former Spokane Indians. | http://www.kxly.com/sports/2-chicago-cubs-connected-to-spokane/213910246 | robots: classic

} | 499 | Symfony2: Testing with Behat and Mink
I have been looking at functional testing using Behat and Mink and their associated Symfony2 bundles. Having used Selenium for this sort of testing in the past and found the writing of the tests to be a long and torturous process, Behat is a huge improvement.
There are quite articles about on getting started with Behat for web application testing as well as its own great documentation. For example, and
I am not going to go over installation and the basics in this post but just look a couple of specific things I have found useful myself.
Mink’s Built In Steps
One of the most useful features for me has been the built in steps provided when using Mink with Behat. These are available when you extend MinkContext for the FeatureContext class and allow you to write steps to perform common interactions with a website. For example clicking on a link:
These already have the behind the scenes action written so you do not need to write them yourself. There are numerous actions and assertions included. You can find a list of these with this command:
As well as really appreciating not having to write the code for actually controlling the browser session for these I liked the way that they match to multiple ways of selecting a link, button, field etc. So instead of having to know the id of a field to fill it out, it will match to the following its id, name, label or value.
Another couple of useful steps included are great for finding why a feature is not passing:
Adding these to a feature will allow you to see the last output from the browser which helps to find out what wrong with a test. Then print last response will display the last output in stdout. To use Then show last response you need to add the following to the Mink config:
This will then open the last response in the specified browser, which can be more helpful as you will see the rendered page and not the page source.
Adding users using the FOSUserBundle.
Here is a quick snippet for adding users if you are using the FOSUserBundle. If you have a Given step, effectively a precondition for a test, that requires certain users to be added e.g.
Then this step in the FeatureContext will add them:
Cleaning the database
The documentation’s recommendation is not to use Doctrine fixtures for testing but to do this work in the FeatureContext class in order to make it easy to see the starting state from the scenario. You can clear database tables like this:
In the above code you are using an Entity with the Entity Manager to clear the database. If you are using Symfony2’s ACL for security then this also needs clearing but does not have associated entities, the ACL tables can still be cleared by using the DBAL connection rather than the entity manager like this: | http://richardmiller.en.1.3142.xyz/2011/08/ | robots: classic

} | 389 | Chronic diseases and health promotion
Part Three. What works: the evidence for action
Chapter Two. Review of effective interventions
Rehabilitation. Spotlight: India, Pakistan
Chronic diseases are major causes of disability, including blindness, lower limb amputation, motor and sensory dysfunction following stroke, chronic pain, and impaired functioning following myocardial infarction. Rehabilitation is intended to enable people to continue to live full lives as part of society. In some conditions, notably after myocardial infarction, rehabilitation reduces mortality. Multidisciplinary and intensive rehabilitation programmes, common in high income countries, are typically not feasible in low and middle income countries. However, community-based rehabilitation can provide effective rehabilitation in these countries.
Evidence of effectiveness
• Rehabilitation services for patients following a stroke and living at home can improve independence.
• Multidisciplinary rehabilitation services in patients with chronic low back pain can reduce pain and improve function.
• Cardiac rehabilitation (following myocardial infarction), with a focus on exercise, is associated with a significant reduction in mortality.
Providing rehabilitation services in developing countries
Rehabilitation services are usually provided by a team of specialized personnel, including medical doctors, dentists, prosthetists, physio-therapists, occupational therapists, social workers, psychologists, speech therapists, audiologists and mobility instructors. In many low and middle income countries, this rehabilitation approach is not feasible owing to shortages of health workers and other resource constraints.
In these situations, community-based rehabilitation is a viable alternative, using and building on the community's resources as well as those offered at district, provincial and central levels. Community-based rehabilitation is implemented through the combined efforts of people with disabilities, their families, organizations and communities, as well as the relevant governmental and nongovernmental health, education, vocational, social and other services. Such efforts are being made in more than 90 (mostly low and middle income) countries. The focus has expanded to health care, education, livelihood opportunities and participation/inclusion. As an overall approach, it has not been rigorously evaluated but site-specific evidence is generally positive.
Spotlight: Community-based rehabilitation in India
In rural south India, permanently blind people were supported with community-based rehabilitation. This included mobility training and training to perform normal daily activities. Quality of life improved for some 95% of participants.
Spotlight: Community-based rehabilitation in Pakistan
In Pakistan, volunteer local supervisors from targeted communities (villages and slum areas) were taught to identify and train people with disabilities. One to two years after training, 80% of participants showed improvement in function. | http://www.who.int/chp/chronic_disease_report/part3_ch2/en/index15.html | robots: classic

Customs export declaration
Custom organization for exporting goods
The exportation of customs goods requires various procedures to be followed; therefore, it is necessary to know customs and tax laws.
Exportation is a procedure promoted by various governments to encourage trade. This activity is controlled strictly and in detail by customs and tax legislation. Any goods leaving national territory must be subject to customs control. Furthermore, the goods should carry a declaration and authorization for exportation.
In practice, exportation is a transfer outside the EU in which commercial goods are sent abroad, outside European customs territory. When the goods arrive at customs ready to be exported, they are subject to a series of controls; if all the requirements are not duly fulfilled, or if the commercial goods do not bear a certificate of exportation, the customs office seizes the goods.
It is possible however to carry out clearance, i.e. the payment of customs duties, to clear the goods and permit their exportation. The owner and a representative will show the customs declaration for exportation and customs will be responsible for the destination of the goods and where they are packaged and loaded. The declaration will be sent electronically to the customs office of destination.
The exportation office, after having accepted the document, analyses possible tax and general safety risks. After performance of due inspections, the goods are released and exported. During transportation of the goods, the various customs offices will ensure that the goods leave the territory correctly, following all of the procedures provided for and arrive at their intended recipient. Here we refer to final exportation because it has a positive outcome.
There are other export procedures, such as exportation for the passive perfecting system or the important customs system of temporary exportation: it is possible to export goods in a determined period without paying any customs duties when the goods are sent abroad to undergo processing or repair.
For this type of system, the obligation exists to later return the goods to the country from which they were exported. Temporary exportation also includes goods that must be subject to studies or experiments or are used for exhibits at trade fairs for a maximum period of two years.
All information for the purpose of importation of goods must be explained by the customs official. The goods must bear a declaration of temporary issuance. There are customs assistance departments, called "CAD" concerned with assisting their clients, acting as intermediaries in the relationship between the exporter and foreign entities.
However, they provide qualified consulting for performance of customs procedures, creating the exportation documents, monitoring goods, and taking care of tax declarations. This is a practical and useful support for clients with international commercial relationships requiring assistance from these specific agencies. It is necessary to have a clear concept of the functioning of the customs system; it is a complex tax and legislative system that is extremely difficult to understand.
The customs documents are essentially the set of regulations and procedures through which the goods must pass to be considered suitable for exportation. The goods subject to suspension of taxes may be acquired by the usual exporters that, in contact with customs, approve the goods without incurring any VAT payment.

Dividing Property
Talk to a Lawyer

Gavel and Scales
One of the biggest concerns parties having going into a divorce is how the marital property will be divided. As with most issues in a divorce, it is in the best interests of the parties to come to an agreement between themselves as to the division of the marital property. This is because the parties never know when the court will decide that an “equitable” distribution of property mandates awarding one party a disproportionate share of the marital estate.
Asset Division By a Judge
In the event that the parties are unable to reach an agreement regarding the distribution of marital property, the judge will divide up the parties’ assets. Using the sworn financial affidavits provided by the parties, the court will determine which financial affidavits should be awarded to each party. The court is not required to split the marital assets 50/50; instead, the court may divide up the property in whatever way is deemed “equitable.” For example, a wife who worked to put her husband through medical school and then stayed home to care for the parties’ children while her husband became a successful surgeon may be awarded a greater share of the martial property in order to compensate for sacrificing her own career for the sake of the marriage.
Marital and Non-Marital Property
In deciding what property is marital and therefore subject to division, the court must first determine whether the property was acquired during the course of the marriage. Only property accumulated by parties during the marriage is considered marital and therefore subject to equitable division by the court. Property acquired prior to the marriage is considered non-marital, unless it was transmuted into marital property through subsequent actions.
Community and Separate Property
In community property states, all property acquired by the parties during the course of the marriage (with the exception of gifts or inheritances) is considered community property that presumed to be equally owned by both parties, regardless of their contribution to the overall marital estate. Separate property is any property acquired before the marriage. Community property states are not required to make an equitable distribution of property, but rather must split all marital property 50/50 between the parties.
Dividing Up Assets
The easiest method to divide up the marital assets is to allow each party to keep all financial accounts in their individual names (pensions, 401ks, etc) and to divide up all joint accounts (checking, savings, etc.) evenly. If the value of the assets awarded to each party add to up to be roughly even, the court may leave the property division as is. If the value of the assets awarded to each part is not equal, the court will begin moving assets around in order to try to give each party a roughly even share of the marital estate. Other assets are frequently divided up as follows:
• Real property is usually distributed in one of two ways: 1) the fair market value of the property is established and one party buys the other party out; or 2) the property is sold and the parties split the net proceeds equally.
• In distributing stocks, the fair market value of the stock is established as of a certain date (either agreed upon by the parties or determined by the court). Once the value of the stock is determined, the court will divide up the stock equitably between the parties.
• For the purposes of a divorce, pets are considered property and not people. Unless the parties can agree on who should take possession of the pet, the court will award the pet to a party just as it would any other asset. Even though custody is not applicable when it comes to pets, many parties have drawn up pet visitation agreements.
• Marital debt is allocated in the same manner as martial assets when there is no dispute that both parties knew about the debt and that the debt was used for the purpose of maintaining the marital estate. However, where one party is shown to have unreasonably run up debt for extravagant purposes and without the consent of the other party, the party accruing the debt may be held solely liable.
• In most cases, a spouse is entitled to 50 percent of pension or other retirement benefits accrued during the course of the marriage. Depending on the type of retirement plan, the non-participant spouse may get his or her share of the pension in a lump sum or at the time the plan begins paying retirement benefits to the plan participant.
Modification of Property Distribution
Once a property distribution has been memorialized in a marital settlement agreement or divorce judgment ordered by the court, it is very difficult to modify. For example, a property distribution than he or she thinks is fair. Most states have a specified time, usually thirty days, during which a party can file a “Motion to Reconsider” asking the court to modify one or more aspects of the divorce decree. Such motions are extremely difficult to win when the judge has made the property distribution, and even more so when the property distribution was agreed upon by the parties. Some grounds for asking the court to set aside the property distribution are as follows:
• The other party was hiding assets or debts that the other party was unaware of;
• The other party was not honest in his financial disclosures;
• The judge did not understand or consider the nature of the marital estate or the issues at hand in distributing the property;
• The agreed upon property distribution was entered into under duress.
• Looking for Hidden Assets
To some parties to a divorce, hidden assets are of paramount concern. In most jurisdictions, each party must fill out an affidavit disclosing all their assets and income and sign it under penalty of perjury. If you believe your spouse may be hiding assets and know where to look, you’re at an advantage. Many parties believe that there is more income or property than is disclosed, but have no idea what type of property or where such funds would be held. In such cases, hiring a forensic accountant may be in your best interest. Forensic accountants specialize in tracking money from the moment it comes in the door until the moment it is paid out again. If you believe your spouse may be hiding assets, your attorney will most likely advise that you hire a forensic accountant to assist in the discovery process.
Dividing Up the House
In many cases, the marital residence is the most valuable asset in the marital estate. Determining how the marital home is divided up is often the major sticking point in the divorce. In most jurisdictions, a party cannot keep the house unless they can afford to pay the monthly rent or mortgage on their own, without assistance from the other party (other than with child or spousal support). Courts are reluctant to keep a party who no longer lives in the marital residence obligated to pay for it. Accordingly, if one party can afford to maintain the marital residence, and the other party has no interest in keeping the home, the party living in the residence usually buys out the other party. “Buying out” the non-residential party usually entails refinancing the mortgage on the residence in the residential party’s name alone, paying the non-residential party fifty-percent of the equity in the residence, and having the non-residential party quit-claim his interest in the home to the residential party.
Where neither party can afford or desires to keep the marital residence, the home is usually placed on the market, with the parties evenly splitting any profit made on the sale or any additional debt owed on the home. While the fact that children are living in the marital home my move the court to try for a resolution that keeps the children from being uprooted (such as both parties contributing to the mortgage until the children are out of high school), it usually will not cause a court to obligate the parties to continue to maintain the marital residence.
Dividing the Family Business
The division of a family business is much like the division of the marital residence. Once the court determines what interest the parties have in the business (usually a fifty-fifty interest if they started the business together), the parties must attempt to negotiate a resolution. If one party wishes to keep the business and the other does not, the party maintaining the business will have to buy out the other party. As the value of the business is often the subject of dispute, the courts will often order an accountant to perform a “business valuation.” The court will use this business valuation to determine the cost of the buyout. If the parties cannot agree on who should keep the business, the court may award the business to one party or may order that the business be sold and the profit split evenly between the parties.

} | 615 | The F.E.A.R. series has always relied on two major factors as selling points: excellent enemy A.I. and plenty of "gotcha" scare moments. Neither of those show up much in F.E.A.R. 3. Instead, this F.E.A.R. is retooled to allow for cooperative gameplay across the full single-player campaign, and it sure looks pretty -- but it just isn't much for the scares anymore.
And hey, that's OK. I mean, it's a little weird for a game literally titled F.E.A.R. to not be that scary, but whatever -- F.E.A.R. 3 is still a pretty darn enjoyable first-person shooter, especially if you get someone to play with you (or if you delve into one of its rather innovative multiplayer modes). The campaign, though, follows all the standard FPS tropes: You start out escaping from a highly fortified insane asylum, and move on to a blighted cityscape in which you fight all sorts of psychic and physical phenomena. You can play as either the series' usual protagonist (the gun-totin', bullet-time-usin' "Point Man") or his brother (Paxton Fettel, an insane and very powerful psychic). And, if you've got a friend, you can co-op through the entire campaign. The Point Man is a very direct and traditional guns-'n'-grenades-style guy, while Fettel is mostly spectral, and aids the Point Man by psychokinetically throwing objects at enemies, teleporting, and even possessing the baddies' bodies.
The story continues where F.E.A.R. 2 left off, which is to say that it's so overwrought with angst-cum-horror tropes that it might as well be a Nirvana video directed by Wes Craven or something. It's not good, is what I'm saying, kids. Anyway, you spend most of your time fighting F.E.A.R.'s trademark A.I. soldiers who haven't had a particularly large A.I. upgrade since the original game. They still provide a decent challenge, but with F.E.A.R. 3's new, ubiquitous cover, gunfights become pretty formulaic: find a piece of cover, get behind it, pop up and bust some heads, get a grenade thrown at you, run to another piece of cover, boom, repeat. Gee, scary.
Where F.E.A.R. 3 excels is in its multiplayer, both via the aforementioned co-op single-player campaign (it's much better when you have a buddy with you to help tackle enemies and challenges) and the dedicated multiplayer modes. The developers certainly did a bang-up job of keeping things interesting. It's unfortunate, though obviously necessary, that the co-op mode doesn't feature any sections that you must cooperate through, as with Portal 2's separate (and incidentally awesome) two-player mode, but that's not a huge deal. F.E.A.R. 3's dedicated multiplayer modes, though, have some really nifty ideas built in. The first mode (called "F***ing Run") sees four players fighting through waves of enemies while a wall of psychic energy (which instantly kills whoever it touches) constantly pushes them onward. It's also got a "zombie" mode, where you and your team hole up and try to survive waves of zombies, the hook being that the level size continuously shrinks after each wave -- via an encroaching fog effect -- making it harder to run-and-gun. Finally, a three-on-one mode called Soul Survivor casts one player as a ghost who has to possess the level's A.I. enemies and kill the other players to win, while the others have to take out said enemies. Whichever mode you choose, it's pretty darn fun; the only gripe being that (certainly in the PC version, anyway) it's awfully hard to find other players to saddle up with.
Aside from these few relatively minor negatives, F.E.A.R. 3 is a very solid shooter that covers a lot of the right bases -- I just wish the developers had put as much imagination and creativity into the single-player campaign as they did into coming up with new multiplayer modes. And, you know, actually made it a bit more scary. | http://ps3.gamespy.com/playstation-3/fear-3/1180056p1.html | robots: classic
