The Cowherds June 10th, 2011
Hyderabad is a fantastic and interesting place.
We were lucky enough to have a great driver who doubled as a tour guide on my trip there. As we were driving on a highway, I spotted the ruin of a mosque rising up from the small buildings to the right of us.
I asked the driver to stop, and we entered the narrow streets and headed towards it. And there it was, around the bend. Absolutely beautiful. Overgrown with green. Small plants and flowers growing out of cracks. Hundreds of years old, by the looks of it. Neglected. Crumbling. Seeming forgotten despite the bustle of life around it.
The mosque turned out to be inaccessible. Walled off from all sides. The driver, a man in his sixties, told us that he used to come often to that neighbourhood as a child. But as sectarian troubles began to increase between Hindus and Muslims, gradually the Muslims left the neighbourhood.
Round the back of the mosque, we came across a herd of cows and goats, tied up and docile.
Turned out the Hindu family nearby were raising them. Also turned out that the family elder was our driver's wrestling instructor when he was a child. They hadn't seen each other in some fifty years. It was an extraordinary moment.
We got to spend a little time with the family, and eventually I was allowed to take pictures.
The elder:
The son:
Father & son:
I feel privileged to have gotten a glimpse at a different side of life in India. One not many people get to see.
More coming soon!

Cluster and Double Star see star crack during massive 'starquake'
Unique data obtained by ESA's Cluster and the joint Chinese/ESA Double Star missions provided the first evidence of cracks on a neutron star's crust. The cracks were caused during the initial phase of the biggest 'starquake' on a neutron star ever recorded.
On 27 December 2004, the radiation from an extremely powerful explosion on the surface of neutron star SGR 1806-20 reached Earth and lasted more than the record time of six minutes.
During the first 200 milliseconds, the amount of energy released was equivalent to what our Sun radiates in 250 000 years, making this the brightest event originating outside our Solar System and being recorded on Earth.
SGR 1806-20 is a 'magnetar', a class of neutron star characterised by an ultra-high magnetic field. SGR 1806-20 is located at around 50 000 light-years from Earth on the far side of our galaxy, the Milky Way in the direction of the constellation Sagittarius.
A similar blast within 10 light-years of our planet would have destroyed Earth's ozone layer and be similar to a major nuclear blast. Fortunately, the closest known magnetar is 13 000 light-years away.
Several scientific satellites observed the giant flare experienced by SGR 1806-20, including ESA's gamma-ray observatory, Integral. At its peak, the intensity of the explosion was hundreds of times stronger than any other observed so far.
For the first fractions of a second (200 milliseconds) the blast blinded almost all instruments on gamma-ray satellites that were observing that region of the sky.
However, the particle detectors on board the flotilla of Cluster and Double Star satellites, designed to study Earth's magnetosphere, were able to observe the blast for its whole duration without being blinded.
"The unique Cluster and Double Star data provide the first evidence of three separate timescales within the first 100 milliseconds of this event," said Prof. Steve Schwartz, lead author of the results, from Imperial College London. "It is based on the characteristics of these timescales, combined with theoretical models, that we could draw a scenario on what happened in SGR 1806-20."
Schwartz and colleagues provide the first observational evidence that the giant flare was produced when the crust of the magnetar could no longer plastically compensate the internal magnetic stress and finally cracked.
One of the three timescales even allowed the estimation of the fracture size: about five kilometres across. This is a significant size considering that SGR 1806-20 has been estimated to be a sphere of only a few tens of kilometres in diameter.
Schwartz combined its findings with other results on the SGR 1806-20 starquake obtained by Italian astronomer Gianluca Israel, from INAF-Osservatorio Astronomico di Roma, and colleagues.
These results, based on NASA's Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer data, revealed the presence of quasi-periodic oscillations in the energy emitted by the neutron star towards the end of its super-blast.
"These oscillatory modes are likely to be associated with global seismic oscillations. In particular, the large crustal fracturing inferred by us can easily excite oscillation modes with characteristic frequencies in the range we observed," commented Schwartz.
Therefore Cluster and Double Star, though designed to study the various boundary layers of Earth's magnetosphere, have not only enabled to directly estimate crustal properties of magnetars, they have also linked interior magnetic processes and their external consequences during giant flares.

The findings on the quasi-periodic oscillations of SGR 1806-20 appear in the 27 June 2005 issue of the Astrophysical Journal, in an article titled "Discovery of rapid X-ray oscillations in the tail of the SGR 1806-20 hyperflare" by GL Israel, T Belloni, L Stella, Y Rephaeli, DE Gruber, P Casella, S Dall'Osso, N Rea (ApJ, 628:L53–L56, 2005).
Results from Cluster and Double Star are presented at the "Third Double Star and Tenth Cluster Workshop", taking place 19-23 September 2005 at ESA's European Space Research and Technology Centre (ESTEC), the Netherlands.

Great looking cans. Pick me, pick me. Merry X-man yall.
...purchased these last week. I went with the Audio Technica m50x Special Editions instead (primarily due to budget). Would love to win these!!!
posting here for my chance :) Thanks!
I hope I get them in that color if I'm lucky enough to win.
right onto my head!
These would be great in my stocking next to my lump of coal. Is there coal in Georgia or just moonshine?
In for one (hopefully)!
Excited about this giveaway! Would love to have a pair of momentums
I gotta upgrade from the Koss phones that are part of my avatar
Been wanting a pair of these since they came out!
Insert witty comment here. I never win anything, anyway...
I tried this at best buy. The sound was glorious. I could not try it with my music.
I've always liked the look of these
Always been a fan of these headphones.
first day of Christmas my true love will give to me...
Was considering getting these for commuting, but they're too expensive. Heard its a bit too warm, but still clear and detailed.
I doubt I'm the 1st to state that; I could most definitely benefit from newly imbued momentous forces (heck, maybe even a change of direction while I'm at it); forces that would be fully supported & regenerated by just such a set of Senn Momentums.
I love my HD 598 for home use and a pair of Momentum would be great for portable use. Good Luck to everyone!
enter to win...no purchase necessary.
Excellent! This got me to create an account for this site. Something I should've done a long time ago given I visit InnerFidelity every day. Keep up the good work!
big Sennheiser fan! would love a pair of these!
to my home recording studio. Thanks.
I'm up for winning these headphones!
I would love to win a pair of Momentums for on the go listening. I have my 400i's for use at home, but I really would love a pair of full sized headphones that are a little bit more portable!
I learned everything I know about headphones from this site so I'm indebted to the man whether I win these Sennheisers or not. Much thanks.
and I enjoy the color choices.
I am in need of a new set of phones and would love to win these. Thanks.
Love the reviews and comparisons! Keep em coming!
Santa Please choose me. I am following you as you make your way through the North Pole. Hope you drop in
I loved these when I owned them but, alas, my large ears were too large for the normal sized ear cups. I Would love to pass these on for the Holidays to someone with more human features.
What a great gift for my kid.
I've been using my hd555 for 5 years, so a new headphone would be nice
Are beautiful, in their functional design.
I am always interested in the opportunity to try out some headphones.
It would be lovely to win. I've been looking for a pair of closed headphones for work.
I heard the Sennheiser Momentums at a store demo not too long ago and came away really impressed.
Thanks for doing this sweepstakes. I'm new to the site, but it's been instrumental in my research for my next set of headphones. Currently between the Urbanites, Solo2, or maybe these Momentum on-ears.
Did I win??...
These pair of headphones are very well made, it'd be an honor to receive these cans.
Merry Christmas everyone
I'm in for the sweepstakes contest!
I have Sennheiser mics but no headphones yet. I would love these.
I could use a pair of good closed cans.
Come on Lady Luck, back me up.
Hooooooo Sweet! good luck and happy Christmas!
And have always been pleased with every Senn phone I have ever had
I've tested the Momentum at my local Best Buy several times, so I already know how good these headphones are. Whoever wins this giveaway is in for a real treat.
Someone's going to be lucky... hope it's me for once!
The Momentums seem like the right mix between style, portability, and sound quality. I would love to try these and take them for a spin!
I heard my friend's Momentums and I am quite jealous of him! I would love to own a pair!
Would really love listen to those Sennheiser Momentum Headphones.
Good luck, everyone! I've wanted to check these phones out for a long time.
luck is what a man makes of the place in mind you live in, player
I have thought about getting a pair but just haven't gotten around to getting myself a pair. I would love to win me some Sennheisers!
I hope it's this pair of Momentums!
...at least the Momentum On Ears are awesome! I'd love to see how these compare.
Good luck everyone!
This will brighten up my Christmas
Thank you for the chance IF!
I would love to have these cans! Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas!
I work close to Needle Doctor
Great way to start the new year if I win these!
Would love to give these a listen!
Great reviews and great sweepstakes! Thanks Innerfidelity!
Love Sennheiser cans. Can I get mine in blue??
I really love this reviewer and this website let me win
Wow, I can't believe I won!!!
My first decent headphones were Senn's way back when. Still using a well worn pair of 580s these days. These Momentums sound like they'd be just the ticket for me!

My Favorite Whine
The weather's getting me down. I think I'm not alone here. Although the Pacific Northwest isn't being hit by the epic amounts of frozen global warming that the East and Central areas are (including Texas, freaking hot Texas almost couldn't host the Super Bowl because of drifts of the stuff!), we are under a cloud. Actually, lots of them. We're in that bleakest month of the year, February, where the predominant color theme is grey.
Vitamin D deficient, we stumble down the street clutching our coffee, hoping to find a lifeline in a paper cup of caffeine. It gets us through the day, but just barely. What we need is sunshine. Beautiful, warm, light sunshine.
What I want is a beach. A warm sandy beach where the sand is so soft it's like stepping on pillows. And, although the temperature is in the 80's (F), it never feels too hot because of the soft breezes that waft the elusive scent of plumeria over you. When the gentle warmth has seeped all the way into your bones, you can get up and take a few steps to the edge of the water, wade in, and cool off. The water is just the right temperature, cool enough to be refreshing, but warm enough that it doesn't take your breath away.
You see, what I really want is to pack my bags and go to Hawaii. What I did instead was make muffins. Tropical muffins. I threw together the flavors of the tropic - bananas, pineapples, would-have-been-coconut-but-I-couldn't-find-any-in-my-cupboard, and macadamia nuts. Then I could drape a lei over my neck, put Tiny Bubbles on my iPod, crank up the house heat, light a floral candle, and hula my way around the house, eating the taste of the tropics. My husband draws the line at importing a beach, though. The sand is a booger to get out of the carpet.
(I also put quite a bit of bran in the muffins. Hopefully that will help me live long enough to actually get to Hawaii! Or at least to outlive winter.)
Tropical Branana Mini Muffins
- adapted from The Complete Muffin Cookbook
makes about 36 mini muffins, or 12 regular ones
1 cup unbleached white flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp sea salt
1 cup wheat bran
1/4 cup chopped dried pineapple
1/4 cup dried coconut
1/4 cup chopped macadamia nuts
3 ripe bananas, mashed (1-1/2 cups)
3/4 cup water
1 large egg
1-1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp grated lemon peel OR 1/4 tsp lemon extract OR 1/8 tsp lemon oil
1- Preheat the oven to 375 deg. Lightly grease the insides of a mini muffin tin.
2- Into a large bowl sieve together the flours, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir in the wheat bran, pineapple, coconut, and macadamia nuts.
3- In a medium bowl whisk together the bananas, water, egg, vanilla, and lemon flavoring.
4- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture. Stir just until mixed. Do not overstir!
5- Spoon the batter (I used a small cookie scoop) into the prepared tin. Fill each cup to the the top.
6- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes. Cool muffins in the pan for 8 to 10 minutes before removing from the tin. (At this point I had to wash out my tin and regrease it for the second batch. If you've got more than one tin, lucky you!)

Yes, yes, it's unsophisticated to blame any given storm on climate change. Men and women in white lab coats tell us—and they're right—that many factors contribute to each severe weather episode. Climate deniers exploit scientific complexity to avoid any discussion at all.
If you've followed the decades-long innanity of science-deniers who target the Theory of Evolution (yes, all of geology, biology, and genetics is wrong--magic, indeed), you'll not be surprised that science-deniers exploit scientific complexity, nor that they often exploit and sometimes simply misinterpretent or misunderstand the role of disagreements within the scientific community, disagreements that quite often exist within the context of overarching, fundemental scientific consensus.
Back to the cost perspective given in the graphic (click on the above) designed by Jennifer Daniel: The number of U.S. natural disasters costing more than $1bn was 46 in 1980-1995 and 90 from 1996-2012. (Inflation plays a very small role in that increase.)
Yet, an October 2012 Pew Research Center poll
found that two-thirds of Americans say there is solid evidence the earth is getting warmer. That's down 10 points since 2006. Among Republicans, more than half say it's either not a serious problem or not a problem at all."
The graphic by Jennifer Daniel doesn't include a cost estimate (it's yet to to determined) for this year's U.S. drought, which was the worst in a generation.
Also from the article:
On Aug. 30, [Romney] belittled his opponent's vow to arrest climate change, made during the 2008 presidential campaign. "President Obama promised to begin to slow the rise of the oceans and heal the planet," Romney told the Republican National Convention in storm-tossed Tampa. "My promise is to help you and your family." Two months later, in the wake of Sandy, submerged families in New Jersey and New York urgently needed some help dealing with that rising-ocean stuff.
Yes, it's global warming, stupid, and it comes with a cost--one that in the future could grow worse than need be if science-deniers' influence continues to rise.

The only animal fibre considered as a synonym of luxury since ancient times, silk is obtained from silkworm cocoons, which involves a series of operations, and then it is transformed into yarn and fabric. This is why it is referred to as natural silk. Silk is the most noble, softest, finest and most hard wearing among natural fibres, cool in summer and warm in winter. After a careful selection process, Fabiana Filippi uses the fibres to make yarns for knitwear and fabrics.

Think "Bonfire of the Vanities" meets "The Firm," with a 21st-century dash of global menace in the form of a corrupt Chinese speculator thrown in for good measure.
Though a few of the bad guys drift into parody, Colin Harrison has written a satisfying thriller canvassing and connecting New York's hedge-fund billionaires with illegal immigrants scraping by on menial labor.
A few pages into the story, a young Chinese woman, Jin Li, witnesses the grisly murder of two Mexican girls.
The killers are really after Jin Li, who heads a cleaning company that handles document-shredding and other services for Manhattan firms.
That role allows for all manner of discreet snooping – and fuels the illegal stock speculating ring led by her brother back in Shanghai.
A forlorn firefighter who survived a nightmarish assignment inside the collapsed World Trade Center towers on 9/11 serves as the novel's hero.
He's capable, brooding – and often lost in the maze of subplots. When he's on the stage, though, he grabs the reader's attention, as does Bill Martz, a conniving and captivating billionaire who's been burned by a mysterious plunging stock price engineered by You Know Who.
Harrison mostly moves his pieces around the board in expert fashion and, Wolfean tics (exclamation points run amok!) aside, writes with a crisp authority.
He's done his homework, too, as the detailed aside on sewage services will attest. "The Finder" is a keeper.– Erik Spanberg

Iron Man 2 gets a swanky new car, while Zombieland teaches us the importance of cardiovascular exercise. Fringe's alternate universe prepares for war, and we meet one of Dollhouse's high-ranking employees. Plus, Splice, Heroes, New Moon, Smallville, Superman/Batman, and FlashForward.
Three new spots elucidate additional rules for surviving the zombie apocalypse:
Iron Man 2
Not promo stills from the movies, but this car will apparently be featured in the new film, likely as Tony Stark's new ride:
Two-time James Bond Timothy Dalton will voice a thespian hedgehog toy named Mr. Pricklepants. [JoBlo]
In the sixth episode, we will meet Howard Lipman, an intelligent higher up in the Dollhouse with a big sense of humor. He will probably be a recurring character. [Spoiler TV]
Brendon Connelly at /Film has seen a clip from the genetic engineering thriller. Says Connelly:
The scene we were treated to comes from an early moment in the story. Clive and Elsa, as played by Adrien Brody and Sarah Polley, are a young couple who also work together trying to create new life forms from animal DNA. They won't use anything lifted from the human genome for ethical reasons, but everything else is fair game. At this moment, they've created something, their most advanced 'something' so far and it's incubating in the lab.
Clive decides that it should be terminated while Elsa disagrees. What follows is the unveiling of the creature, and a tense scene in a lab wherein the little critter tries to avoid termination.
Executive producer Roberto Orci says in the eighth episode, we'll see many Observers and learn a lot about them and their role in the world. He also says that the fourth, eighth, and twelfth episodes will be important to the Observers and the show's larger continuity. [TV Guide]
These set photos come from a scene in which a police officer falls off a parking garage, with a stuntman playing the role of the ill-fated cop:
Orci talks a bit more about the coming season and Leonard Nimoy in the October issue of SciFi Magazine:
This series is heavily featured in Entertainment Weekly's Fall TV preview issue, out now. Season two, episode five is filming in the grounds of a semi-defunct mental hospital, and it's about a guy who believes his boss is an evil ram-horned creature in disguise. This season, Olivia will get super-hearing. Astrid has a scene with a bottle of leeches and a blender.
And the over-arching weirdness in season two will come from the idea that an army from the alternate universe has declared war on our reality. The people from "over there" will be putting the final pieces of their invasion plan in place. To that end, the alternate universe will recruit a super-spy played by Thomas Kretschmann. [EW]
The producers are looking to cast an East Indian girl, age 10-13, for the tenth episode. She will be a student in India, very engaged with her lesson. [Spoiler TV]
And here are several promo images from the first two episodes, many taken from the same scenes as yesterday's images:
New Moon
Scans from the Australian magazine Film In feature interviews with the cast:
Set photos from the third Twilight balance Kristen Steart with equal parts Team Edward and Team Jacob:
Stargate SG-1
Amanda Tapping has said that production on an SG-1 movie could go into production later this year, once the first season of Stargate Universe wraps. If that's the case, Martin Wood would direct the movies. Tapping will appear in SGU's premiere. [Spoiler TV]
In the first few episodes, we'll only see snippets of characters' flashforwards, but they'll be fleshed out throughout the season. Joseph Fiennes' character, FBI agent Mark Beford will have a scene with daughter where he rolls and egg toward her and says in an English accent: "As Eggbert Eggbottom the Third, I would
like to egg-spress my desire for you to eat oatmeal this morning. Can I get a 'cluck-cluck?" and the egg shortly falls on the floor. John Cho's character Demetri Noh is about to get married when everyone has their flashforward and, since he doesn't have one, begins to wonder if he should break off the engagement. [EW]
In the final moment of the season premiere, we'll find out how Lois is the key to Clark's journey. [EW]
And there's a new Season 9 promo:
Here's a new clip from this direct-to-DVD super-team movie, showcasing Metallo:
The images come from the show's fourth episode, "Family Ties:"

There's An Athlete In All of Us!
By: Susan K. Wilkerson, RD, LD
Clinical Dietitian, Lexington Medical Center
The 2012 Summer Olympics in London start this month. Many of us will be sitting in front of the TV for hours watching in amazement as these athletic specimens perform their feats. Let's take a peek at what the athletes eat.
From the beginning, food played a big part in an athlete's life. During Ancient Greek times most people ate breads, vegetables and fruits. The meat source was fish for the people who lived near the sea. The earliest records point to a cheese and fruit-based diet for the first Olympic athletes. Ancient Olympians came from the upper class since wealthy families could feed their children more protein-rich legumes, cheeses and meats to build strong muscle.
A study of the diet of athletes in Berlin in 1936 (Schenk, 1936) based on the analysis of the diets of 4,700 competitors from forty-two nations, determined an average in-take of 320g of protein, 270g of fat and 850g of carbohydrates, which is 7,110 kcal/day. The majority of the calories came from carbohydrates (48%).
Today, what you eat while you train and perform during your event makes a difference at the finish line. With advance research and new technology, athletes today have specific needs for a specific task. It's all specialized, but it comes down to eating healthy fruits and vegetables, complex carbohydrates, and lean meats. Highly processed refined foods are avoided.
So as we get inspired to get off the couch and walk around the block, let's think about what we eat to fuel our bodies to complete the tasks of the day. There is an athlete in all of us! As it is today, food has always played an important part in the life of athletes. In fact, at the first recorded Olympics in 776 BC, the winning runner was a cook, Koroibos from Elis.

14-year-old Elle Fanning, actress and sister to Dakota, is now the face of Lolita Lempicka, the fragrance by the French designer of the same name. Lempicka's legal name is Josiane Maryse Pividal, but she began working under the pseudonym as an homage to Vladimir Nabokov's Lolita, the 1950s novel chronicling a middle-aged professor's sexual relationship with his pre teenage step daughter.
While there's nothing overtly sexual about Fanning's campaign, the juxtaposition of the young fresh-faced Fanning and the name of the perfume. That, and the way that the campaign's commercial, directed by Yoann Lemoine, is fairly sensual, displaying Fanning as she runs through the woods with closeups on her lips and face.
Overall, the commercial, which eventually depicts Fanning going mad as she trips on poisonous wood berries, is engaging and beautifully shot, so it's unfortunate that the name and its connotations make it so difficult to enjoy. Then there's the whole issue of a 14-year-old baby child convincing adult women to buy cosmetics. Aren't girls Elle's age supposed to shoplifting the Justin Bieber perfume from Claire's and leaving us adults to our women's work?

It has been suggested that this defensive rhetoric is a characteristic of small, embattled groups existing on the margins of more established, mainstream groups. This seems like a reasonable explanation, and worth consideration.
The defensive rhetoric of a marginalized group:
The following is a passage from the first chapter of Figments and Fragments of Mahāyāna Buddhism by Gregory Schopen. He uses excerpts from Nāgārjuna's Ratnāvalī to illustrate his assertion that the Mahāyāna was a marginalized group (or groups) struggling for acceptance at the time the Ratnāvalī was written.
- Although the Ratnāvalī is describing the Mahāyāna after it had had a century or more to develop and take shape, there is no indication in the text that this Mahāyāna had even yet successfully effected anything like what Stcherbatsky called the "radical revolution [that] had transformed the Buddhist Church." ... Even in the hands of one of its most clever advocates it does not appear as an independent, self-confident movement sweeping all before it as, again, Stcherbatsky's influential scenario might suggest. But rather—and as late as the second or third century—it appears as an embattled movement struggling for acceptance. It appears to have found itself in an awkward spot on several issues. Nāgārjuna, for example, wants the Mahāyāna to be "the word of the Buddha": "The benefit of others and oneself, and the goal of release, are in brief the teaching of the Buddha (buddhaśāsanam). They are at the heart of the six perfections. Therefore this is the word of the Buddha" (te ṣaṭpāramitāgarbhās / tasmād bauddham idaṃ vacaḥ / IV.82). But a few verses later he is forced to admit that "the goal of being established in the practice which leads to awakening is not declared in the sūtra" (bodhicaryāpratiṣṭhārthaṃ na sūtre bhāṣitaṃ vacaḥ / IV.93).
To judge again by Nāgārjuna's "defense," the Mahāyāna had troubles not just in regard to its authenticity or not just in regard to its doctrine of emptiness. Its conception of the Buddha—what, significantly, Nāgārjuna several times calls its buddhamāhātmya—also appears to have been far from having carried the day in the second or third century. At least Nāgārjuna was still arguing for its acceptance: "From the inconceivability of his merit, like the sky, the Jina is declared to have inconceivable good qualities. As a consequence the conception of the Buddha (buddhamāhātmya) in
the Mahāyāna must be accepted!" (IV.84). But immediately following this verse asserting that the Mahāyāna conception of the Buddha must be accepted comes another that seems to tacitly admit that it was not: "Even in morality alone he [the Buddha] was beyond the range of even Śāriputra. Why then is the conception of the Buddha as inconceivable not accepted?" (yasmāt tad buddhamāhātmyam acintyaṃ kiṃ na mṛṣyate / IV.85).
The tacit admission here of the rejection of the Mahāyāna is perhaps the one unifying theme of the entire discussion in Chapter IV of the Ratnāvalī, and although Nāgārjuna—or whoever wrote the text—does occasionally muster arguments in response to the perceived rejection, the response is most commonly characterized not by the skill of the dialectician, but rather by the heavy-handed rhetoric typical of marginalized sectarian preachers. Typically the Mahāyāna is extolled without argument, and then some very unkind things are said about those who are not convinced. Verse 79 is a good example of such rhetoric: "Because of its extreme generosity and profound depth the Mahāyāna is now (adya) ridiculed by the low-spirited and unprepared. From stupidity (it is ridiculed) by those hostile to both themselves and others" (IV.79).
Again this sort of rhetoric runs like a refrain throughout the discussion. Not only are those who ridicule the Mahāyāna stupid and ill prepared, but they are also "deluded" and "hostile" (vs. 67); they have no understanding of good qualities or actually despise them (vss. 68, 69); they have no sense (vs. 78); and they are "ignorant and blind" (vs. 83). This sort of rhetoric and name calling is generally not associated with a strong, self-assured, established movement with broad support and wide acceptance. But we need not rely on general considerations of this kind to conclude that the Mahāyāna was in the second or third century a long way from having achieved any significant acceptance in Nāgārjuna's India. Our author—again, himself a proponent of the system or movement he is characterizing—repeatedly and explicitly declares that there is "opposition," "aversion," or "repugnance" (pratigha) to the Mahāyāna (vs. 97); it is the object of "ridicule" or "scorn" (vss. 67, 68, 69, 78, 79); it is despised (vss. 70, 89), verbally abused (vs. 80), not tolerated (vs. 85), and not accepted (vss. 85, 87). Its position would seem to be clear....
Sectarian rhetoric—especially in isolation—is difficult to assess. What the observer sees as rhetoric the insider may see as self-evident and hold as conviction. But the fact probably remains that calling those who do not share your conviction "stupid" occurs largely in the face of a rejection that itself threatens that conviction and reflects a certain desperation. More self-confident movements are by definition more assured of their means of persuasion and do not commonly indulge in this sort of thing.
Sociologists, however, who have studied sectarian groups in a variety of contexts have shown that this sort of characterization is typical of small, embattled groups on the fringes or margins of dominant, established parent groups. Moreover, the kind of rhetoric we find in the Ratnāvalī is by no means unique—Mahāyāna literature is saturated with it. There those who do not accept the Mahāyāna are said to be not only "stupid," but also defective, of bad karma and evil, or even possessed by Māra. Further, while we cannot be sure that those who did not accept the Mahāyāna were "stupid," we can be reasonably sure that such people existed at the time of our author—and in large numbers. Even the logic of the rhetoric would suggest that it would be self-defeating—if not itself "stupid"—for a proponent of a movement to repeatedly claim that that movement was an object of ridicule if it were not true; it would get him nowhere and in fact would undercut any argument he might make on that basis. The statements in the Ratnāvalī, indeed, presuppose that it was widely known by its intended audience—almost certainly literate and learned monks and perhaps the king to whom it was supposedly addressed—that the Mahāyāna was not taken seriously and was in general an object of scorn. Again, the force of our author's arguments would seem to rest on this being fact.

Canucks need just 13 shots and great goaltending to beat Kings 1-0
LOS ANGELES, CA - MARCH 23: (L-R) Chris Tanev #8, Jordan Schroeder #45, Mason Raymond #21 and Jannik Hansen #36 of the Vancouver Canucks celebrate Raymond's goal in the first period during the NHL game against the Los Angeles Kings at Staples Center on March 23, 2013 in Los Angeles, California.

LOS ANGELES -- It's hockey, not figure skating, so the beat-up Vancouver Canucks don't really care about artistic impression these days.
The two points are all that matter and for the third straight game the Canucks got them. Vancouver got an early goal from Mason Raymond and shutout goaltending from Cory Schneider as they beat the Los Angeles Kings 1-0 in a Saturday afternoon matinee at the Staples Center.
This one probably won't be going into the time capsule for later viewing.
The Canucks didn't generate much offence as they managed only 13 shots on Los Angeles goalie Jonathan Quick. But they did a nice job of holding the Kings in check and when they didn't, Schneider was there to make the save.
The players weren't making any apologies for the chip-and-chase style of play.
"We are missing a lot of guys," said captain Henrik Sedin. "I think people have to realize where we are."
"You've got to do what you've got to do," added head coach Alain Vigneault. "And right now I think this is the right way to win hockey games."
Schneider stopped 20 Los Angeles shots to earn his second shutout of the season.
"He was excellent tonight," Vigneault said of Schneider. "He made the key saves at the right time. There weren't a lot of shots from the opposition and I think Cory would be the first to credit the players in front of him for playing the type of road game we have to play right now.
"You have to be on the right side of the puck, you have to chip it in and chip it out and sort of frustrate the opposition and when they do make a mistake try and capitalize on it. They didn't make a lot of mistakes but we were able to capitalize on one."
Vancouver got the only goal it would need at 11:06 of the first period and it came from the only line that really had much offensive jump. The speedy trio of Raymond, Jordan Schroeder and Jannik Hansen had a strong game and combined on the goal.
Schroeder delivered a long stretch pass through a sea of bodies to spring Raymond free behind Los Angeles defenceman Jake Muzzin. Raymond took the pass at full speed, skated in alone and put a shot through the legs of Quick.
"It was a great look by Schroeds," Raymond said. "He even threaded it through the guy's triangle -- when the stick's down I call it his triangle. We were able to capitalize on that. We didn't have a lot of shots, but a heck of a game by Schneids and I thought we played well defensively for the most part right down to the final period."
After Raymond's goal, it was up to Schneider. He wasn't particularly busy, but did make a number of key saves. He moved across his crease to rob Trevor Lewis on a shorthanded two-on-one with Mike Richards in the second period. Early in the third, he made back-to-back right pad saves on Dustin Penner from in close and later stopped a Richards shot from the slot.
When he wasn't stopping pucks, Scheneider was having to face Kings' forwards who frequently crashed the net.
"One of the harder 20-save efforts I've had," Schneider said. "I have made 40 saves and worked not as hard as that. They crash the net, they screen, they get pucks to the net and it makes life hard.
"They have got some big bodies down there and I think our defencemen did a good job handling them down low and not giving them too much time and space and our forwards came down and helped and cleared out rebounds."
The Kings, meanwhile, were shut out for the second straight game at home.
"We have outshot our opponents 2-to-1 the last two games," said Kings coach Darryl Sutter. "We just need the odd one to go in."
The win kept the Canucks, now, 16-9-6, tied with the Minnesota Wild in the Northwest Division standings. Each team has 38 points, but the Wild -- 2-0 winners over San Jose on Saturday -- have a game in hand.
Already missing some key injured forwards, the Canucks played without defenceman Alex Edler, who served the first game of the two-game suspension he received for his hit on Phoenix goalie Mike Smith on Thursday night. Andrew Alberts took his spot in the lineup.
Winger Chris Higgins returned after missing Thursday night's game in Phoenix with a bad back.
Henrik Sedin warned that no one should be expecting a lot of goals from the team until the Canucks get some of the missing bodies back.
"This team has showed up every night," he said. "We are not going to score four or five goals every night. With the effort this team has given over the last five, six, seven games, we knew the wins were going to come."
The Canucks will try and make it a perfect road trip late Sunday afternoon in Denver, when they meet the Colorado Avalanche. That game starts at 5 p.m. PDT.

SPOILER ALERT: If you are waiting to watch the end of "Making a Murderer" to find out what happens to Steven Avery, do not read this story.
In just two weeks, nearly 183,000 people have been so moved by Netflix's runaway hit 'Making a Murderer' they have signed petitions asking for the president to pardon the documentary series' subject Steven Avery, a Wisconsin man serving life in prison.
Since being created in late December, nearly 20,000 signatures had been collected on a Whitehouse.gov petition by Monday morning and an additional 163,000 had signed a Change.org petition calling for a presidential pardon for Avery and his nephew Brendan Dassey.
They were launched quickly after 'Making a Murderer' began streaming Dec. 18, and have only gained momentum as more viewers push their friends and family to the must-watch, mind-bending real-life thriller.
Both Avery and Dassey are currently serving life sentences for the murder of photographer Theresa Halbach in 2005.
"After viewing [the documentary series], I am outraged with the injustices which have been allowed to compound and left unchecked in the case of Steven Avery of Manitowoc County in Wisconsin, U.S.A.," the Change.org petition's creator writes. "Avery's unconstitutional mistreatment at the hands of corrupt local law enforcement is completely unacceptable and is an abomination of due process."
If the government petition collects 100,000 signatures by January 16, the White House has to respond publicly.
The harrowing and heartbreaking 10-episode series has both enraged and consumed fans, mainly due to the fact that the series follows real people that are still living with the outcome.
Following the murder case over the course of 10 years, the series questions the authenticity of evidence prosecutors used to convict the men, including a coerced confession by Brendan, who was just 16 years old at the time and learning disabled. Brendan soon after said, as shown in the series, he was forced into giving it and fed by officers.
"Based on the evidence in the Netflix documentary series," the Whitehouse.gov petition writes, "The justice system embarrassingly failed both men, completely ruining their entire lives. There is clear evidence that the Manitowoc County sheriff's department used improper methods to convict both Steven Avery and Brendan Dassey."
Filmmakers Laura Ricciardi and Moira Demos produced the series chronicling the process that led to Avery's conviction in Wisconsin's Manitowoc County in 2007.
Avery's attorneys fought tirelessly for his freedom, suggesting throughout the series that police wanted to frame his client. In many points, there is a stark contrast to what was told to the public during the time to the reality shown of how the alleged evidence was uncovered by local law enforcement and the tactics used over the course of years to put Avery behind bars.
Prosecutor Ken Kratz has defended himself after the onslaught of criticism and global attention, saying the case is slanted toward the defense. He says the filmmakers didn't give him a chance to answer any of the defense attorneys' allegations. He also says the filmmakers haven't presented as much as 90 percent of the physical evidence linking Avery to the crime.
In response to Kratz's comments, filmmaker Ricciardi told The Wrap: "Ken Kratz is entitled to his own opinion, but he's not entitled to his own facts."
Ricciardi and Demos spent 10 years following the Avery family's struggle, capturing 700 hours of footage throughout the investigation and trial.
Riccardi's partner Demos added to the Wrap: "I guess I would ask Kratz what he would trade it for. We tried to choose what we thought was Kratz's strongest evidence pointing toward Steven's guilt, the things he talked about at his press conferences, the things that were really damning toward Steven. That's what we put in."
After finishing the powerful 10 episodes, thousands of fans have taken to social media expressing sleepless nights spent wondering what legal options are left for both men, and whether any other suspects have emerged since the documentary was released.
Tens of thousands of comments on Making A Murderer's Reddit subthread have come up with their own theories or even taken it upon themselves to try to find new facts in the case that they hope can bring the men justice.
Here you can find answers to many questions you might have after watching "Making a Murderer."

The fight to overturn a ban on gay marriage in California will be televised.
With a judge barring video from the trial to overturn Proposition 8 earlier this year, "Milk" screenwriter Dustin Lance Black has written a new play about the trial, which will star some of Hollywood's biggest names and YouTube will broadcast the play live online.
George Clooney will play the role of attorney David Boies, who fought to overturn the controversial voter-approved measure that banned gay marriage in California.
U.S. & World
News from around the country and around the globe
Martin Sheen will play the role of Ted Olson, who argued with Boies to overturn the proposition.
The two actors will read selections from the 2010 trial discussing the constitutionality of the proposition.
Google posted a message from the director of the play Rob Reiner on its blog Thursday announcing that it would broadcast the show on YouTube.
"At the time of the trial, the Supreme Court ruled against allowing cameras in the courtroom, preventing anyone outside the court from witnessing the proceedings," Reiner wrote on the blog. "Today, we're able to give people around the world a look at what happened behind closed doors via the live stream of this reading of 8 on AFER's YouTube channel."
Clooney and Sheen will be joined by an all-star cast of actos, which includes Jaime Lee Curtis, Matt Bomer, Christine Lahti, Jane Lynch, Rob Reiner, George Takei and others.
The play will be shown March 3 at the Willshire Ebell Theater in Los Angeles or on YouTube.

Sydney Pirreca leads Mount Sinai girls past Harborfields
Mount Sinai girls lacrosse kicked off its game about an hour late after a track meet tied up the field, but don't tell Sydney Pirreca that. For her, the race never ended.
Pirreca, a physical midfielder headed to Florida (eventually . . . she's a sophomore), translated her whiplash speed to head-turning results Wednesday, scoring five goals en route to a 10-6 win over Harborfields in Suffolk Division II girls lacrosse.
"She's got this just explosive speed," coach Al Bertolone said. "Every time she has the ball, she's a threat to go . . . you really can't prepare for that kind of speed."
Harborfields had plenty of trouble catching up, as Pirreca scored the first two goals of the game -- on a blazing drive to the cage, punctuated by an overhand blast, and the other on a quick flip on a feed from Caroline Fitzgerald. The Mustangs led 8-2 at the break, thanks to Pirreca's man-up streak from about 30 yards.
"It was 100 percent my advantage," Pirreca said. "It's easier to run past them. That's what I use most, that' my biggest skill and that's what I use as much as I can."
When Harborfields did threaten they were met by Julia Michaels, who made eight saves. Her best work came in that early onslaught, when the junior made a stop on a free-position attempt five minutes in, a stick save off a point-blank shot with 17:43 left in the first half, and another save off a free position a minute later.
Katie White had three goals and Carli Clementi scored twice for Harborfields. Danielle DellaRocca and Kasey Mitchell had two goals for the Mustangs.
"It was a little rough," Michaels said. "All you can really see is the silhouette of the girls, so as the goalie, all I'm really looking at is the top of your stick and whatever that ends up . . . And my defense saved my butt for everything. It was insane."
Michaels added that the matchup had historically been a difficult one -- Harborfields beat them by one two years ago, and the Mustangs pulled out the one-goal win last year.
"We've been battling them game for game, goal for goal," she said. "So for us to come out on all six cylinders shows that we're Mount Sinai, and we can pull it together as a team."

Here in the USA, most consumer power strips seem to make use of NEMA 5-20R connectors - they look something like this. However, in the rackmount/datacenter world, I see a lot of power distribution units that accept IEC C14 connections instead, which look like this.
I know there's no significant difference electrically; I'm wondering why I should prefer one over the other. In my limited experience, I've found that connecting C14 connections to a PDU results in looser connections that I'm more likely to have fall out without securing them with zipties or velcro.

Utilities for command-line parsing, including wrappers around the standard System.Console.GetOpt module.
Simple command line parser -- a basic wrapper around the system's default getOpt. See the System.Console.GetOpt manual for a description of the first two parameters.
The third parameter is a usage information header.
The return value consists of the list of parsed flags and a list of non-option arguments.
Similar to parseCmdLine, but takes an additional function that validates the post-parse command-line arguments. This is useful, for example, in situations where there are two arguments that are mutually-exclusive and only one may legitimately be given at a time.
The return value of the function indicates whether or not it detected an error condition. If it returns Nothing, there is no error. If it returns Just String, there was an error, described by the String.
A type to standardize some common uses of GetOpt.
The first component of the tuple is the long name of the option.
The second component is empty if there is no arg, or has the arg otherwise.

Jewish World Review July 12, 2002 / 3 Menachem-Av, 5762
Amitai Etzioni
One evening, we attacked a radar station near Haifa. A girl and I, in civilian clothes and looking as if we were on a date, casually walked up to the radar station's fence at the same time half a dozen others did. We cut the fence and placed a bomb. It exploded, but the British shot our leader in the head and we retreated. We disappeared into the crowd milling around in an adjacent street. All the British could do was either indiscriminately machine gun the crowd or wait until their intelligence services identified and located us, two nearly impossible tasks. But if the British had caught us, we understood that we could have been hung or sent to a detention camp for the duration of the conflict.
What the USA faces today are a bunch of freelancers and self-appointed warriors whose leaders hide in caves or remote villages. Civilian clothes, as my experience highlights, greatly benefit the attacker, an advantage we as a country must deal with by almost any means necessary, or our homeland protection will come to naught.
In fact, many of the indignities we must contend with these days when we travel by air or enter numerous public buildings are a direct result of the threat of terrorists hiding behind civilian clothing. We would not have to show photo IDs or be randomly searched if they abided by long-established and widely observed rules of warfare. In other words, if they fought us like upstanding soldiers.
The British had every right to throw the book at me then, just as the United States today has the same right to deal forcefully with terrorists who masquerade as civilians, such as potential "dirty bomber" Jose Padilla and other al-Qaeda operatives. Legally, there's a big difference between an enemy wearing a soldier's uniform representing his country and a terrorist in civilian's clothing. The soldier, under the Geneva Convention, has certain rights. But a terrorist - foreign or American born - who tries to harm innocent people has next to none, in my mind.
The U.S. Justice Department argued this very point in a brief to an appeals court about enemy combatants. U.S. officials said these prisoners have no right to a lawyer and can be held indefinitely and that civilian courts cannot intervene. Similar authority will likely be used against Padilla, also declared an enemy combatant.
Or take Richard Reid, the would-be shoe bomber. The only way to deter this kind of assault (worse than mine, because he attacked civilians, not as unavoidable collateral damage, but as his sole target) is to severely punish such terrorists, something the Justice Department has attempted to do with Reid. We are also quite justified in monitoring his conversations with his lawyer for security reasons, to ensure that the lawyer will not be used to transmit messages to other terrorists ready to strike. Moreover, lawyers should be chosen from a list of those cleared to see some classified information.
Lawyers, including Reid's public defenders, draw numerous fine distinctions: among unlawful combatants, prisoners of war and visa over-stayers; between airplanes and "mass transportation vehicles." But my concerns are much more basic. For Reid (and for his ilk), we need to establish the fundamental facts that he is the guy who tried to set off the bomb on that flight - two witnesses will do - and that he is not insane. (That he planned the attack for months is proof positive.)
As I see it, under no circumstance should we endanger our national security, whether our agents or foreign sources, to accommodate some legalistic notion of a supposedly fair trial. When terrorists attack as civilians and seek to kill civilians, they put themselves far outside the protection of the law - national and international.
What about U.S. citizens such as Padilla and John Walker Lindh? Lawyers say they are entitled to extra rights because of their citizenship. In my book, they are worse than Reid. It is bad enough for someone who is not one of us to assault America in the name of some misbegotten cause. It is far worse for an American to raise his arm against his fellow citizens.
The Constitution correctly brands such people as traitors. Let the lawyers fight it out as to what exact evidence is needed to declare someone a traitor. But ethically, we should call them what they are: a cut or two - or much more - below foreigners who terrorize us.
The judge in Lindh's trial accurately rejected his lawyer's attempts to have all of the charges against him dropped on constitutional grounds, as well as his attempt to move to another venue. The judge's ruling cleared the way for federal authorities to proceed with their prosecution of Lindh. An agreement was also reached on the use of classified documents.
I am writing here about those suspects caught red-handed.
We must draw the line when we merely suspect that someone is the enemy, but there is no direct evidence that he or she acted against us. Such was the case with Wen Ho Lee, the Los Alamos nuclear scientist who was suspected, but never convicted, of spying for China. Here, we have to be careful not to open the floodgates to massive accusations or indictments of foreigners or Americans.
But as for the likes of Richard Reid, John Walker Lindh and Jose Padilla, throw the book at them. Otherwise, how will we deter the terrorists masquerading as innocent civilians?
"What about you?" one may ask.
I still believe that my cause was just --- but not the way I was fighting for it.

I am confused with what are Al-Shaatabiyah, Al-Durrah and Al-Tayyibah?
I am confused with what are Al-Shaatabiyah, Al-Durrah and Al-Tayyibah?
These are all learning poems which describe the different qira'aat by one tareeq or all the turuq.
The Shaatibiyyah is a poem on seven authentic qira'aat by the way described by Imam Ash-Shatibiyy following what was outlined in At-Tayseer book by Imam Ad-Danee.
Ad-Durrah is a poem by Imam Ibn Al-Jazaree outlining the three authentic qira'aat not included by Imam Ash-Shatibiyy in his poem.
The seven qira'aat in Ash-Shaatibiyyah plus the three in Ad-Durrah and called the ten "lessor' qira'aat because just one way (tareeq) is covered for each of the ten qira'aat.
At-Tayyibah is a poem which describes all the ten qira'aat with all their authentic turuq, written by Imam Ibn Al-Jazaree based on his book An-Nashr. The ten qira'aat in At-Tayyibah poem are called the ten "grand" qira'aat because of all the authentic turuq (ways) were included.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (Aug. 20, 2013) – The U.S. Men's Volleyball Team improved to 2-0 on Tuesday at the Pan American Cup with a 25-14, 25-10, 25-20 victory over Trinidad & Tobago in Mexico City..
The United States will conclude pool play on Wednesday against Mexico.
Serving was key for the U.S. as it led Trinidad & Tobago in aces, 10-2, led by Dan McDonnell (Glendale, Ariz.) with three. The U.S. also took advantage of 33 Trinidadian team errors while committing only 20.
"We are happy to win. Trinidad played hard in the third set, but we have acclimated to the city's altitude," U.S. Team Captain Ryan Ammerman (Parker, Colo.) said.
U.S. Head Coach Shawn Patchell also praised libero Michael Brinkley (Huntington Beach, Calif.).
"The third set was tied, but Michael passed some balls and that helped us to improve," Patchell said. "We put pressure on the service."
Outside hitter Joe Sunder (Greensburg, Pa.) led the United States with 10 points on seven attacks and a match-high three blocks. The U.S. led in attacks 26-20 and in blocks, 6-2.
Among other U.S. scorers, opposite Will Price (Laytonsville, Md.) had seven points on six kills and one block.

Now that I have it working I can log in as administrator but there is no link to the admin area on the top bar like there used to be. Has that moved or is there something wrong?

Experiemental and math rock can be a little tough to get into. The rhymthms are impressively complex and intricate, but a lot of times you just can't groove to them. Enter "Atlas" by Battles. It's groovetastic.
Off their 2007 debut Mirrors "Atlas" was Battles' lead single with an addictively primal beat, crazy instrumentation, and some seriously, seriously bizarre vocals. The album version clocks in at seven minutes, with some vamping you might consider to be "excessive," but the music video provides a great abridged version, and it's also just amazing to watch.
So sit back, spend a good four minutes rocking back and forth, and try to decipher those lyrics. "People won't be evil if they eat a sandwich"? What? [iTunes, Amazon, Spotify]
