Zack's Kernel News
Kernel News
Chronicler Zack Brown reports on the latest news, views, dilemmas, and developments within the Linux kernel community.
Simple Flash Filesystem Dan Luedtke recently announced LanyFS – a filesystem to use with any drive you might carry on a lanyard or keychain – essentially, small flash drives. The goal was to make the filesystem so simple that it would work easily on any operating system. In this case, the lack of features was itself a feature.
Richard Weinberger and Marco Stornelli didn't see the point of such minimalism. To them, it just seemed like reinventing the wheel, because other filesystems already existed with a larger set of features. And, Alan Cox gave a link to an interesting article at http:// lwn.net/ Articles/ 428584/ that discussed the ins and outs of trying to code a flash-oriented filesystem.

BY LIZA STROUT AND MARCY SHORTUSE - The Gasparilla Island Bridge Authority voted on an interim toll increase to take effect on Oct. 1 at their March 20 special meeting, until the matter of an ad valorem tax is voted on in November.
As of that date, cash tolls will be $6, cash tolls will increase from $3.25 per trip to $3.90 and a rate of $790 for annual passes will apply.
The board voted to 'quarantine' the revenue from the increase, which means it will only be used only on design and construction of the new bridge.
The board also determined they would soon be sending out a "courtesy poll," to be sent to all voters on the island to determine which of three proposals will be used on the November referendum.
The options are simple. Either there will be a tax increase and a toll increase, a tax increase with no toll increase, or toll increases with no taxes.
Specifics include:
• A .30 mil ad valorem tax with a $7 cash toll, a $4.20 discount toll and a $840 annual pass.This would mean that for every $1 million taxable value on a home or property, the taxpayer would pay $300 more each year.
• A .55 mil ad valorem tax with a $6.00 cash toll, a $3.90 discount toll and a $780 annual pass. This would mean that for every $1 million taxable value on a home or property, the taxpayer would pay $550 more each year.
• No ad valorem tax with a $7.50 cash toll, a $4.90 discount toll and a $980 annual pass
The poll will be mailed in time to be completed and returned by the next scheduled board meeting, April 25.
Financial Chairman Bill Holmberg said these taxes, if approved, would be in effect for up to 30 years. Otherwise, it would be very difficult, if not impossible, to get bank financing on a 30-year loan.
The October 1 toll increase is possibly just the first of several, depending on how island taxpayers vote in November.
Opinions were widespread among the board members. Julius Frager said he believed that cash toll amounts should be the least tampered with, while discount toll holders should bear the brunt of the increase.
"I think it would have a severe impact on our community if we didn't have visitors coming across the bridge," he said.
"So we should disadvantage the workers?" Holmberg asked. He then brought up the Wilbur-Smith study in which it was determined that an impact to visitor traffic would not be noticeable until the toll was at approximately $10.
Frager responded that he didn't believe it would be that much of an impact for the discount holders.
Among the few members of the public to attend the meeting was island resident George Baker, who objected to subsidizing "day trippers'" use of the bridge.
Echoing those sentiments were Cookie Potter, who said she was against "subsidizing Hell's Angels to use the bridge."
"They don't come across that bridge to buy anything," Baker said. "If they happen to be here, they'll buy an ice cream cone, or they'll go down to what used to be the Laff-a-Lot and have one or more beers, but they don't come here to spend money. I don't know how many of you go down there and check out the beaches on Sunday morning, but there are enough beer bottles down there now, we don't need more of the same. By 10 a.m. the beach parking lots are full, so why would we want to pay for more people to come?"
The meeting came to a close with an update on the bridge construction. Pilings for the temporary bridge are being driven during the second half of this week into next week, with the construction of the temporary bridge to follow.
Tim Yonker was also introduced as the new volunteer citizen appointment to the Engineering Committee.
The next GIBA meeting is the Governance Committee meeting on Tuesday, March 27 at 2 p.m. in the GIBA Administration Building.

text: Orchard Park, NY (WGR 550) -- Often times in the NFL, you'll see teams go in to evaluation mode at different positions during Week 17 when they've been eliminated in the playoffs. That won't be the case in Buffalo for the quarterback position when the Bills take on the New York Jets at Ralph Wilson Stadium on Sunday. When asked Monday on whether Tyler Thigpen or Tarvaris Jackson may get a chance to show what they can do in the team's regular season finale, head coach Chan Gailey answered back with the word 'No,' repeatedly. When asked why he wouldn't entertain the idea, he expressed faith in Ryan Fitzpatrick as his starter at least one last time. "He gives us the best chance to win," Gailey said bluntly. The head coach also said that there wouldn't be any backups getting the chance to start on offense or defense just because it was the last game of the regular season. The Bills will be without both tight end Scott Chandler and safety Da'Norris Searcy in the final game of the season. Chandler was placed on Injured Reserve with a knee injury, while Searcy has a groin injury. The Bills and Jets square off on Sunday at 1 pm. Twitter: @JoeBuscaglia

Customer Testimonials
We stayed in Harborview Grande 507 in April 2013 and would just like to say that we had such a fantastic time there and it made our stay in Clearwater Beach special. Our party consisted of three adults, two adult children and twins of 9 and the condo accommodated us all perfectly. Lots of space for us to spread out. The facilities at the condo were excellent and the décor was fabulous, really clean and fresh and obviously quality furnishings which were greatly appreciated, we traveled down to Clearwater Beach from a villa in Clermont which was beautiful and the condo was equally so. The balcony was very spacious and we all fitted on there with plenty of room and enjoyed our breakfast looking out at the amazing view, it was so nice. I would just like to say that the staff at Florida Beach Rentals were very friendly and very helpful, us being British we like our cup of tea and when we asked if there was a kettle available staff provided us with a new one straight away which was much appreciated! Also upon our arrival Jan at the office was so helpful and friendly and gave us lots of information about the local area which was a great help and made us feel very welcome. The only thing I would say that on a couple of occasions there was a lot of noise/very loud music coming from Shepards Resort Hotel opposite the condo, you couldn't hear it inside the condo but on the Sunday 21st April when we arrived there was some sort of event and the music was excessively loud until the early ours of the morning, obviously if this had continued every day then there would have been an issue with it, I would say that it is a shame this resort hotel is actually allowed to host this type of music event in what is mostly a residential area of Clearwater Beach, that said however our vacation was amazing and we would use this condo again as the location is exceptional and the standard very high in all areas.

Scots Continue Success on Court
Tuesday was another victorious night for the Highland Park basketball teams, as the girls opened District 10-4A play with a 63-36 win over Forney while the boys earned a 58-47 road win over Richardson Pearce.
In the girls game, the Lady Scots cruised to a 31-16 halftime lead and extended the margin in the second half.
"I think it was important for us to start district with a win, and more importantly, to play well," said HP head coach Amy Matlock. "I thought the girls did well after being out for a few days and not having much practice time."
The Lady Scots (9-3, 1-0) had not played since rolling to a 61-30 win over Garland in the first game of the Curtis Culwell Invitational tournament on Thursday in Garland. The rest of the tournament was cancelled because of inclement weather.
HP also has been at its best when the scoring distribution has been balanced, such as on Tuesday. Three players scored in double figures, led by Katie Thiebaud with 15 points and Alex Reynolds with 13.

Dog Dies in University Park House Fire
Fire caused substantial damage to a two-story home in the 3700 block of Hanover Avenue on Wednesday afternoon. University Park's 911 dispatch center was alerted to the emergency by the home's security system.
The emergency call was received at 12:58 p.m., and flames were shooting out of the first-floor windows when University Park firefighters arrived. Smoke damage extended to the home's third-floor attic area.
Upon arrival, firefighters immediately searched the residence; no one was home. However, a dog inside did not survive.
The cause of the fire is still being investigated at press time. Dollar loss has yet to be determined.
The University Park Fire Department was assisted on the scene by personnel from Highland Park and Dallas.

New Courses' Costs Range From Cheap to OMG!
Four new courses at Highland Park High School were approved by the Board of Trustees last night, and three of them — Art IV: Commercial Photography, Sports Medicine I, and Sports Medicine II — have minimal costs. The kids who will be taking commercial photography presumably already own cameras, as the course was designed to accommodate students who have taken three years of photography and want to keep snapping pictures as seniors. And the lecture-based course in sports medicine has no textbooks; students will need to buy only "general taping and first aid supplies for practicing purposes."
But the fourth course, Scientific Research and Design, is another story, as it will be taught during a 10-day trip to Costa Rica. Students will need to pay for an estimated $2,300 worth of travel costs, on top of summer-school fees.
Read the course descriptions for yourself after the jump.

GOP Field in District 108 Confirmed
Although we posted a photo of Court Alley filing his candidacy, his name does not appear on the candidates list on the Dallas County Republicans' website. I've left a message for James Carter, the man you saw in filing photos of Chart Westcott and Morgan Meyer, but I was told he's still furiously trying to confirm all of the late filings; the deadline was 6 o'clock last night.
Update at 3:32: Lo and behold, Alley's name is now listed on the GOP website. We now return to previously posted programming.
Nonetheless, Alley and his team were out walking the streets of the district on Saturday, trying their best not to slip and fall on the ice. And, yes, the eagle-eyed among you may recognize former Park Cities People reporter Sarah Bennett as part of that campaign team. Needless to say, such activities would have been frowned upon if she were still on my staff.
Meanwhile, Westcott's campaign is hosting a Christmas party and toy drive at the Museum of Biblical Art. "Operation Santa" is scheduled from 5 to 8 p.m. today.
One last note on the District 108 race: The Dallas County Democrats confirmed that Leigh Bailey is their only candidate, so she'll be waiting to take on whoever the Republicans nominate in March.

Scots Get Defensive in Win Over Wylie
ALLEN — Another week, another offensive powerhouse stifled by the Highland Park defense.
On Monday, the Scots held off a second-half rally by Wylie for a 27-14 victory in the Class 4A Division I Region II final at Eagle Stadium.
HP advances to meet defending state champion Denton Guyer in a state semifinal at 1 p.m. Saturday in Allen.
A week after shutting out high-powered Mansfield Legacy in the regional semifinals, the Scots (13-1) held Wylie to a season-low point total in their 13th consecutive win overall.
The Pirates (9-5) managed just two touchdowns — one on a long passing play, and the other after a blocked punt set them up at the 3-yard line — but didn't reach the end zone with a sustained drive all night.

The title comes from the male and female form of "Lover" in French. These words have been on my mind a bunch lately so naturally it would be a title of a playlist! I guess I could see myself loving or being loved on with this sound playing. A little bit of Electronica, little bit of dub step, little bit of magic.

MMA News Written by Arnold Lim - The Sushiboy
Monday, 01 October 2007
As a thank you to all of the fans in attendance at the inaugural World Championship Fighting event we'd like you to have a chance to re-live some of the excitement of that action packed night by viewing Dan Lauzon vs. Wayne Harnois for FREE at WCFighting.com. For those of you who were unable to attend the show, consider this a teaser of the action coming out on DVD in the near future. You won't want to miss our next show because we will most likely sell out of tickets even faster than our first show! Go to www.WCFighting.com to watch the fight!
In one of the most anticipated fights of the night, UFC veteran Dan The Upgrade Lauzon came out like a ball of lighting landing a ferocious right hand which sent Wayne Harnois crashing to the canvas. Lauzon quickly followed up with punches to the head of his opponent to earn a 14 second TKO victory. After the stoppage Lauzon climbed the ropes and performed a high intensity back flip which further excited the crowd.
In the nights co-main event, Bobby McMasters and Bobby Dias put on what was easily the fight of the night. The first two rounds saw an absolute grappling clinic from both fighters with each fighter reversing each other and constantly going for submissions. After two rounds of fighting, the bout was ruled a draw and therefore went to a third and deciding overtime round. The overtime round was once again very close until McMasters landed a crushing left hand which ended the night for Dias. The nights full results are below:
Greg Sterns def. Mike Deleo by decision.
Mike Curtis def. Seth Davis by decision.
Ronnie Wuest def. Jesse Petersoon by TKO.
Dan Bonnell def. Geo Sontay by decision.
Greg Croteau def. Jim Gonzales by decision.
Adrian Fulk def. Jonas Fernandez by arm bar.
Dan Lauzon def. Wayne Harnois by TKO.
Belleton Frederic def. Jerry Spiegel by head kick KO.
Jason Dolloff def. Charlie Thomas by TKO.
Jamie Campbell def. Steven Stengal by TKO.
Bobby McMasters def. Bobby Dias by KO.
Joe Cushman def. Aguilano Brandao by decision.
Based on the success of the promotion's first event, the WCF looks forward to putting on four shows in 2008. World Championship Fighting would like to thank our fighter's sponsors: Flex Appeal, Align Health, CryoGel, American Fighter, and Hostile Fight Gear.

Desktop CD
The desktop CD allows you to try Mythbuntu without changing your computer at all, and at your option to install it permanently later. This type of CD is what most people will want to use. You will need at least 384MiB of RAM to install from this CD.
There are two images available, each for a different type of computer:
- PC (Intel x86) desktop CD
- For almost all PCs. This includes most machines with Intel/AMD/etc type processors and almost all computers that run Microsoft Windows, as well as newer Apple Macintosh systems based on Intel processors. Choose this if you are at all unsure.
- 64-bit PC (AMD64) desktop CD
- Choose this to take full advantage of computers based on the AMD64 or EM64T architecture (e.g., Athlon64, Opteron, EM64T Xeon, Core 2). If you have a non-64-bit processor made by AMD, or if you need full support for 32-bit code, use the Intel x86 images instead.
A full list of available files, including BitTorrent files, can be found below.
If you need help burning these images to disk, see the Image Burning Guide.

Archived Boards and Threads... > SMF Feedback and Discussion
SMF or QA
Perhaps you have already seen the grand-daddy of all the Q&A websites, Stack Exchange:
http://stackexchange.com/ [nofollow]
It is software like a forum with a focus on people asking and answering questions. There are free as in freedom software alternatives to this now, for example OSQA:
http://www.osqa.net/ [nofollow]
If you are unfamiliar with them, you are in for a treat. They take a bit of time to get used to, as they are quite complex, and functionality is crippled until you acquire some reputation, so perservere. The have very nice permissions system, and sophisticated tag functionality and you can really add value to data in your system by voting on it. askubuntu.com is a popular stack exchange implementation. The stack exchange philosophy is that it is best to have all the people working on providing answers to questions on a specific subject centralised.
I wonder what you think of these sorts of website. Do you think they will come to replace traditional forum software? What do you think forum software like SMF has to offer that these sorts of Q&A programs don't have?
We have an FAQ...
Arantor Beeblebrox the First:
The structure in such places is very geared to Q&A, whereas SMF is not geared for any specific type of community. The upshot is that SMF is generic and suitable for all sorts of things, but not ideal for Q&A, though I'm sure you could add facilities that would make it suitable for Q&A primarily should you want to.
They won't replace traditional forum software because as intimated, not all forum-type communities are based around Q&A structures, they often serve other purposes too.
Could you imagine this forum as a Q&A? The main difference is that here, the responses all form discussions in their own right, not as in answers with comments attached.
Seems to me based on what you've said thus far SMF is not the right software for the need you have, but that something like Stack Exchange's software would be; because you're looking for a Q&A system, not a forum.
ChalkCat @Christmas:
Are you absolutely sure you're not a spammer? :P
From your other posts today I was under the impression that you had already installed SMF to find out for yourself whether it suits your purpose rather than asking for subjective third-party opinion - was I wrong?
As you appear to still be comparing what's available, I suppose the obvious question, which I don't think you have clarified anywhere as yet, is what are you hoping to achieve? What do you want to create with your chosen software?
Arantor Beeblebrox the First:
That's the thing: I'm getting the impression that it's about creating a Q&A setup, which is not what SMF is geared to, though it could be made to be.

Authority: Vice President for Business and Fiscal Affairs

Wright State University pays employees (faculty, unclassified, classified, and students) by direct deposit of net pay to accounts in participating financial institutions. Direct deposit of pay is commensurate with the joint capability of the Payroll department and the participating financial institutions to process deposits in a timely manner. An employee's net pay will be deposited in his/her designated account and available for use on the pay date. Direct deposit is an ongoing procedure and cannot be done on a one-time basis.
Employees shall:
obtain an Authorization Agreement for Automatic Deposits form from the Payroll department.
attach to the form a void check or preprinted deposit slip. The check or deposit slip will be used to obtain the account number and bank routing/transit number.
return the completed form to the Payroll department. The first direct deposit will be effective the next payroll following receipt of the authorization agreement.
To direct the deposit to a different financial institution and terminate the old institution, an employee should provide the new information to the Payroll department ten days prior to the pay date on which the change will be effective.
To change accounts within the same financial institution, an employee should provide the new information to the Payroll department at least ten days prior to the scheduled pay date.

Major Works
Most critics agree that Rhetoric was composed during Aristotle's second residency in Athens, which occurred between 335 and 322 B.C. The composition date has been placed from 336 to 330 B.C. Although there is little agreement regarding Aristotle's intention in this work, in general Rhetoric discusses methods of persuasion, logical and ethical proofs, and the style and arrangement of rhetorical arguments.
It is believed that in addition to his Rhetoric, Aristotle wrote a number of other rhetorical works which have since been lost. John Henry Freese has noted that Diogenes Laertus, in his Life of Aristotle, listed six such works, among them the dialogue Gryllus. Critical attention has focused on the extant fragments of this text and on references to it in other texts. The son of Xenophon, Gryllus died in battle in 362 B.C. After his death, elaborate eulogies were prepared for him, and some critics believe that Aristotle's Gryllus was one such commemoration. Others, including Anton-Hermann Chroust, have argued that the dialogue is actually a polemic against this obsequious style of rhetoric.
Textual History
Scholars believe that Aristotle revised the work over a number of years following its composition. Some have conjectured that Rhetoric was used by Aristotle as a set of lecture notes. Keith V. Erickson has noted that despite stories regarding the loss and recovery of the text, it apparently was preserved by the Lyceum (the school in Athens at which Aristotle taught). The work may have seemed to disappear, Erickson has suggested, simply because it was not taught for many years. Although Cicero (143-06 B.C.) frequently mentioned Rhetoric in his works, there is little to indicate the extent to which the text was studied for the next approximately six hundred years. Erickson has noted that it was the last of Aristotle's works to be recovered in the Middle Ages. The text was translated into Arabic, and then into Latin from Arabic in 1256. Around 1475, the first published analysis of Rhetoric appeared, prepared by George of Trebizond. The sixteenth and seventeenth centuries saw the publication of numerous translations and commentaries on the work. After a century of little interest in the work, Rhetoric enjoyed a nineteenth-century revival, which has continued into the twentieth century and has resulted in its publication in many languages.
Critical Reception
Modern critical analyses of Rhetoric have focused on the construction of the work, on the psychological concepts Aristotle discusses, and whether or not Aristotle proves the legitimacy of rhetorical discourse. Charles Sears Baldwin has studied the way in which Aristotle distinguishes logic from rhetoric. Baldwin has pointed out that while both rhetoric and logic are methods of "bringing out truth, of making people see what is true and fitting," rhetoric seeks to have this truth "embraced" by the people. Gerard A. Hauser has examined the two "instruments of logical proof used by Aristotle in Rhetoric: the enthymeme* and the example. Hauser has noted that Aristotle seems to present example first as an independent method of proof (in Book 1) and then as subordinate to the enthymeme (in Book 2). By exploring the logical relationship between induction and example in Aristotle's other writings, Hauser has concluded that Aristotle presents a single doctrine with regard to example, but one which is bifurcated. Theresa M. Crem has offered a similarly technical analysis of Rhetoric, stating that Aristotle approaches the subject as a logician. Crem has reviewed portions of the work as "a scientific presentation of the rhetorical method."
The psychology of Rhetoric is also a source of commentary among critics. William J. Jordan has argued that by studying the context of Aristotle's statements in Rhetoric concerning the use of metaphor, it becomes apparent that Aristotle regarded the metaphor as a psychological tool. Aristotle's conception of metaphor, Jordan has stated, identifies "semantic and structural characteristics" desigped to affect the behavior of listeners or readers. Alan Brinton has also taken up the issue of the psychology explored in Rhetoric. Brinton maintains that the psychological concepts present in the text are not the type which become dated, since they are not psychological theories "in the social-scientific 'sense."
Critics have also addressed the issue that was hotly debated during Aristotle's life—the question of whether rhetoric is legitimate, rational discourse or whether it is sophistry, a method of verbal manipulation with a disregard for the soundness of argumentation. Larry Arnhart has explained that because rhetorical arguments generally lack the strict exactness of scientific knowledge, Aristotle faced the challenge of demonstrating that such arguments were still rational. Arnhart maintains that Aristotle used the concept of enthymeme in order to distinguish rhetoric from both science and sophistry, and that Aristotle successfully demonstrated the rationality of rhetorical discourse. Similarly, Mary Margaret McCabe has studied the objections to rhetoric raised by Aristotle's contemporaries, as well as his responses in Rhetoric to such objections. McCabe has concluded that Aristotle avoids both extremes: Plato's complete condemnation of rhetoric and Isocrates's absolute endorsement of it. She maintains that Aristotle demonstrates that rhetoric is truly an art that can be practiced legitimately.
*A syllogism is an argument, or proof, used in logic, in which the conclusion of the argument is supported by two premises. An enthymeme is a syllogism in which one of the two premises is unexpressed.

[In the following excerpt from a work originally published in 1924, Baldwin examines both the construction and content of Books I and 2 of Rhetoric. He maintains that in this work, which should be regarded as a philosophical survey rather than a manual, Aristotle demonstrates "the full reach of his intelligence."]
The only art of composition that concerns the mass of mankind, and is therefore universal in both educational practise and critical theory, is the art of effective communication by speaking and writing. This is what the ancients and most moderns call rhetoric. More ample and exact definition, though unnecessary for elementary practise, is demanded for fruitful theory; and the theory of rhetoric has always concerned so many more people than the theory of any other art as to be part of every pedagogy. Here the practise of education not only may be guided by philosophy; it must be. For any coherence in its teaching, rhetoric must be comprehended not only in its immediate functions, but in its pervasive relations to other studies. It is at once the constant in educational schemes and the art among sciences. How we are in a given time and place to learn or teach rhetoric depends on how we understand its function and scope in specific relations.
The importance of a theory...

[In the following essay, Chroust argues that, based on the extant fragments of and references to Aristotle's Gryllus, the work appears to be an attack on certain types of rhetoric, as well as a defense of "proper" rhetoric, and is similar in content to passages in Plato's Gorgias.]
In their respective 'catalogues' of Aristotle's writings, Diogenes Lacrtius,1 Hesychius of Smyrna (the author of the Vita Aristotelis Hesychii)2 and Ptolemy (-cl-Garib)3 include a composition entitled Concerning Rhetoric or Gryllus (generally cited as Gryllus or Grylus). With the exception of a few relatively insignificant fragments, excerpts or references, this Gryllus4 has been completely lost in the course of time, as were most of the other carliest … works of Aristotle. Assuming that they actually relate to the lost Gryllus, these few extant fragments, however, enable us to draw certain significant conclusions concerning the original form, nature and content of this composition.

[In the following essay, Crem examines the first chapter and the beginning of the second chapter of Book I of Aristotle's Rhetoric, arguing that he offers a scientific treatment of the subject in that he approaches rhetoric not as a rhetorician but as a logician.]
Aristotle's treatise on rhetoric is unique, in that it is a properly scientific consideration of the subject. This characteristic becomes manifest, when we compare it with other rhetorical treatises, such as those of Cicero. The works of this great rhetorician are of high value because of his wide experience in the field; nevertheless, they do not methodically treat of the nature of rhetoric. Rather, they are handbooks of practical advice on public speaking and on the formation of the rhetorician.
On the other hand, Aristotle speaks not as an experienced rhetorician, but as a logician. Rhetoric is a part of logic understood in the broad sense, i.e., taken to include all disciplines which direct the act of reason. In the order of logical treatises, the Rhetoric is placed immediately after the Topics, which is concerned with dialectic. Hence, because he is proceeding from a logical...

[In the following essay, Jordan studies Aristotle's use of metaphor in Rhetoric, asserting that the context of Aristotle's statements about metaphor indicates that his conception of metaphor was psychological in nature. Aristotle, Jordan notes, identifies "semantic and structural characteristics which affect reader and listener behavior."]
Unlike much of Aristotle's rhetorical theory, his concept of metaphor has received relatively little attention from contemporary rhetorical theorists. Traditionally, rhetoricians have either overlooked or have not been concerned with Aristotle's psychological aspects of metaphor, as Kennedy observes that "none of the later Greek or Roman accounts seem to share Aristotle's philosophical concern with the psychological bases of figures of speech."1 Osborn's recent discussion of metaphor likewise denies a psychological consideration of Aristotle's concept of metaphor. According to Osborn:
The emphasis in Aristotle remains primarily upon the linguistic character of metaphor, and the reasons for this emphasis again lie both in the natural tendency of early theory to stress the most obvious characteristics of the figure, and in the...

[In the following essay, Erickson traces 2,300 years of the history of Rhetoric, from its probable composition date, the myths regarding the loss and recovery of the text, early translations and publications, and into the twentieth century.]
Tracing the history of Aristotle's Rhetoric logically begins with its "completion" or "publication" date. Although numerous scholars have attempted to date the Rhetoric there is little conclusive evidence to confirm a particular date. Edward M. Cope, a century ago, summarized research concerning the Rhetoric's completion or publication date: "As is usual in these cases the result is meagre and unsatisfactory: no certainty is attainable; we have to content ourselves with sufficiently vague and indefinite conjecture as to the time and mode of the composition of the work."1 Cope's remarks are echoed by contemporary investigators such as Paul D. Brandes,2 who concludes that the Rhetoric's exact completion date remains unknown. There are several reasons for the confusion.
Book publishing as we know it, of course, did not exist in ancient Greece. To "publish" a work held a quite different meaning for Aristotle and his counterparts....

[In the following essay, Arnhart maintains that Aristotle uses the concept of enthymeme (a logical argument, or syllogism, in which one of two conclusion-supporting premises is unexpressed) to defend the legitimacy of rhetorical discourse and to distinguish rhetoric from both science and sophistry.]
Is rhetoric some form of rational discourse about the intelligible reality of politics? Or is it merely a means for verbally manipulating men through fallacious arguments and appeals to irrational impulses? In short, can rhetoric be distinguished from sophistry?
One might say that the rhetorician—by his use of public speech to interpret, evaluate, and deliberate about political action—maintains somehow the rule of reason in political affairs. Does not rhetoric require political men to talk about and thereby to think about what they have done, are doing, or will do? Does not rhetoric thus elevate politics by bringing thought to bear upon action? "We weigh what we undertake and apprehend it perfectly in our minds," Pericles declared in his funeral oration, "not accounting words for a hindrance of action but that it is rather a hindrance to...

[In the following essay, Brinton examines the canonical status of Rhetoric, defending it against those who would reject the text as dated due to the "emergence of the social-scientific study of communication in the twentieth century." Brinton argues that the psychological conceptions found in Rhetoric are, unlike some psychological theories, "not the kind which perish …" and that the text remains relevant to students of rhetorical theory.]
However rhetoric ought to be defined, the great rhetorics of the past have, whatever their defects, at least some claim to the name. They may also deserve respect as relics of the past. But how importantly, if at all, ought they to figure in the education of students of rhetorical theory? And to what extent, if any, is it appropriate for contemporary rhetorical theorists to work from, say, Aristotle's Rhetoric as a basic text, to address questions in rhetorical theory for modern readers in its terms? However (and whether or not) rhetoric ought to be defined in conceptual terms, during any given period certain texts help to define it for the student and for the scholar, if not always for the practitioner. That is to say, there is for students and scholars, for good or ill, a sort of de facto...

[In the following essay, McCabe defends the structure and the content of Rhetoric, arguing that both support Aristotle's view that rhetoric is indeed an art and that it can be practiced in a legitimate manner.]
Is the opening of Aristotle's Rhetoric a muddle, an agglomeration of two versions of the text, haphazardly assembled? Or is there a coherent strategy to be found here? It has been persuasively suggested that two different strands of argument within the Rhetoric correspond to two stages in the development in Aristotle's logic (an earlier, Topics-based stage, and a later one that uses the theory of the syllogism put forward in the Prior Analytics).1 But I shall argue that the Rhetoric is not ill-knit after all. For the appearance of fracture derives from Aristotle's standard practice of considering the views of the many and the wise to arrive at a coherent theory of his own. In this case, I claim, Aristotle explicitly confronts the opposed theories of his predecessors: Plato, who denied that there could be an art of rhetoric, and the tradition of the rhetors and sophists which maintained that rhetoric is the overarching science because the practice of rhetoric is...

H.A.W.X. promises to open up Ace Combat's closed gameplay
Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X. lead designer Thomas Simon told MTV that although the team respects Namco's Ace Combat, they feel the gameplay is too closed and promise the H.A.W.X. will rectify that.
"What 'Ace Combat' did to the air combat genre is really great," Simon said. "They [Namco Bandai] really set the basics of that [genre].
"But we felt, in general, it was a bit closed…the frame was too tight and people are getting used to that; we wanted to refresh it a bit, so we opened it via new gameplay features."
In order to do that, Simon reckons you need to feel part of the world you're flying around in:
"We wanted to put it in the real world, so you're not fighting in places that have no emotion," he explained. "If I'm fighting above Washington, it means something more to me. That was a real choice."
Ubisoft announced today that Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X. is to be released for PC, 360 and PS3 in March.

Jazz keyboardist George Duke dies at 67

(AP Photo/Keystone, Jean-Christophe Bott, File)
By Mesfin Fekadu
associated press
NEW YORK—A representative says Grammy-winning jazz keyboardist and producer George Duke, whose sound infused acoustic jazz, electronic jazz, funk, R&B and soul, has died. He was 67.
The representative said Duke died Monday night in Los Angeles. He was being treated for chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
During his 40-year-plus career, Duke appeared on a number of Frank Zappa's albums and played in the Don Ellis Orchestra and Cannonball Adderley's band. He played keyboard on Michael Jackson's multiplatinum 1979 album, "Off the Wall," and was a producer for Miles Davis, Smokey Robinson, Gladys Knight, Dionne Warwick and Natalie Cole.
This is how NPR's Felix Contreras described him:
"He was also a very successful record producer who worked with folks like Gladys Knight, The Pointer Sisters, Anita Baker, Rachelle Ferrell.
"As an instrumentalist he started by working with Sonny Rollins and Dexter Gordon. But he made his mark in the jazz fusion vein, most notably with fellow fusion musicians Stanley Clarke and Billy Cobham. He had a series of respected fusion albums going back to the late 1970's.
"From the mid '60s, he also worked as a member of Frank Zappa's recording and touring band. Most recently he had been a big draw at jazz fests around the world that catered to the mix of R&B and jazz artists."
When Duke spoke to Weekend Edition in 2008, he told Scott Simon that he could not recall how many albums he'd put out.
"I'm kinda like [John] McCain in that way: He doesn't know how many houses he's got; I don't know how many albums I've got," Duke joked.
A little more than a year ago, Duke's wife died of cancer. Duke was devastated and could not make music for months. But, earlier this month, Duke released "DreamWeaver," which the AP's Charles J. Gans says tied up Duke's eclectic career in a lush tribute to his wife.
"Duke expresses his love for his late wife on the tender, piano-driven ballad 'Missing You,' a romantic vocal duet with Rachelle Ferrell," Gans wrote. "The album ends by turning the cowboy ballad 'Happy Trails' — Dale Evans' closing theme to 'The Roy Rogers Show' — into a soulful, heartfelt farewell to his wife, made even more poignant by the sudden death of guitarist Jef Lee Johnson shortly after he recorded the fadeout guitar solo." He also released more than 30 solo albums.
