Our family has traveled extensively, and we have done many, many tours and adventures. None of the family members have ever rode on a Segue before, so we figured, why not, let's give it a try. This was by far one of the most enjoyable experiences we have ever had as a family. Our children are 12 and 15, and they LOVED the Segue tour. Rolling through the city streets of San Francisco, along the Bay, and out onto the Pier. The safety and pace was perfect and most importantly the GUIDE (ours was "AG") and she was brilliant. A perfect way to spend time in San Fran, family, couple or even solo. Would recommend this Tour! Tour was well priced, and total time was about 3 hours total when you include the training. Even after 3 hours of fun, our children were begging for more!

This one-off Ferrari 575 GTZ is one of the few Ferrari models Zagato has clothed over the years. The 575 GTZ is based on the 575 Maranello and was ordered by a prominent Japanese collector in 2005 to celebrate the model's 50th anniversary. There was only one model offered for private purchase and no other examples will ever be built again, so this might be the only chance for you to own one. That is, of course, if you have 1.5 million Euros (about $1,950,000 at the current exchange rates) in your pocket.
The 575 GTZ Zagato was built entirely from aluminum and features design cues taken from the 250GT Zagato Coupe, including the trademark 'double bubble' roof, prominent front and rear fenders, and the big grille. And while the exterior looks amazing, we really do not understand why Zagato opted for that interior color combination.
Under the hood, there is a 5.7 liter V12 engine that delivers a total of 508 HP and sprints the car to an impressive top speed of 203 mph.

If you are a serious developer releasing software to the public you are surely already using Authenticode signatures to sign your code and let the world know it came from you. You can obtain an Authenticode certificate at some certification authority (e.g. Verisign). These certificates are normally valid for one, two or three years, depending on how much cash you want to spend upfront. Normally, you get discounts the more years you purchase.
Once you get your Authenticode certificate you can start signing your executables and libraries (DLLs) both managed and unmanaged as well as setup packages (MSI). You can only sign your target files while your certificate is valid. The day your certificate expires, you can no longer sign your files with it. If you want to continue signing, you must purchase a renewal or a brand new certificate.
To do the actual signing you need to run your Visual Studio 2008/2010 Command Prompt and issue a command similar to this:
signtool sign /f key-file /p password /v your-target-exe-dll-or-msi-file
Ok, let's say you have signed your installer (SETUP.EXE). If you run it from some untrusted location (e.g. download it from the Internet), double-clicking it will produce a dialog similar to this:
Looks good! This is exactly what you want to make your software look professional, right? Well, yes and no. The way we have just signed our file is only good enough for as long as our Authenticode signing certificate is valid! Now, what does that really mean? Well, let's put it this way. Say you purchased your code signing certificate on January 1st and its validity period is one year. On January 1st next year it is no longer valid. All software you signed with the above method will only show as signed in the current year for as long as signing certificate is valid. As soon as your certificate expires, your software will show as *unsigned* like in the image below!
To prevent this from happening be sure to timestamp your signed files. Timestamping is really just another command line option to the above signing syntax but with a big significance. With timestamping you supply an URL to your certification authority's timestamp service (this varies depending on where you purchased your certificate).
signtool sign /f key-file /p password /t http://timestamp.verisign.com/scripts/timstamp.dll /v your-target-exe-dll-or-msi-file
Timestamping really means "please make this file be known as valid from here to eternity". So timestamped files never expire. They will always show as valid regardless of whether your certificate expired or not.
There is another implication of timestamping. You may purchase your Authenticode code signing certificate, use it for say one year for an unlimited number of timestamped code signings. Even if you stop producing software at some point and your certificate eventually expires, your previously signed files will remain signed and shown as valid even to users in the 23rd century and beyond.

15 U.S. Code § 2641 - Congressional findings and purpose
prev | next
(a) Findings
The Congress finds the following:
(1) The Environmental Protection Agency's rule on local educational agency inspection for, and notification of, the presence of friable asbestos-containing material in school buildings includes neither standards for the proper identification of asbestos-containing material and appropriate response actions with respect to friable asbestos-containing material, nor a requirement that response actions with respect to friable asbestos-containing material be carried out in a safe and complete manner once actions are found to be necessary. As a result of the lack of regulatory guidance from the Environmental Protection Agency, some schools have not undertaken response action while many others have undertaken expensive projects without knowing if their action is necessary, adequate, or safe. Thus, the danger of exposure to asbestos continues to exist in schools, and some exposure actually may have increased due to the lack of Federal standards and improper response action.
(2) There is no uniform program for accrediting persons involved in asbestos identification and abatement, nor are local educational agencies required to use accredited contractors for asbestos work.
(3) The guidance provided by the Environmental Protection Agency in its "Guidance for Controlling Asbestos-Containing Material in Buildings" is insufficient in detail to ensure adequate responses. Such guidance is intended to be used only until the regulations required by this subchapter become effective.
(b) Purpose
The purpose of this subchapter is—
(1) to provide for the establishment of Federal regulations which require inspection for asbestos-containing material and implementation of appropriate response actions with respect to asbestos-containing material in the Nation's schools in a safe and complete manner;
(2) to mandate safe and complete periodic reinspection of school buildings following response actions, where appropriate; and

The table below lists the classification updates, since Jan. 3, 2012, for this section. Updates to a broader range of sections may be found at the update page for containing chapter, title, etc.

Move over, Daft Punk. Country crooner Luke Bryan has somehow managed to pull off the neat trick of having two chart-topping albums on the Billboard 200 in 2013, and his latest, Crash My Party, sold 528,000 copies out of the gate — enough to put it behind only Justin Timberlake's The 20/20 Experience (968,000) and Jay Z's Magna Carta Holy Grail (just over 528,000, according to Billboard) as far as albums with the biggest album opening weeks this year so far. All of this points to one thing: America still digs pop, hip hop and country.
For those keeping track, the fourth-biggest opening of 2013, to-date, was clinched by Daft Punk's Random Access Memories (339,000), while Kanye West is now in fifth place with Yeezus (327,000).

Owen Wilson and Larry the Cable Guy are the voices of Lightning McQueen and Mater, who are joined in their latest mission, an international caper, by the likes of Michael Caine and Emily Mortimer. "Cars 2" opens June 24.
"BRAVE" HIGHLAND OF THE �BRAVE� -- The rugged and mysterious Highlands of Scotland serve as the backdrop for �Brave,� a new tale that joins the land�s ancient lore�stories of epic battles and mystical legends passed down for generations. Directed by Mark Andrews and Brenda Chapman, and produced by Katherine Sarafian, �Brave� is the grand adventure of Merida (voice of Kelly Macdonald), a skilled archer who confronts tradition, destiny and the fiercest of beasts to discover the true meaning of courage. The film also features the voices of Emma Thompson, Billy Connolly, Julie Walters, Kevin McKidd, Craig Ferguson and Robbie Coltrane. �Brave,� full of heart, memorable characters and Pixar�s signature humor, takes aim at theaters on June 22, 2012, and will be presented in Disney Digital 3D� in select theaters. �Disney/Pixar. All Rights Reserved.
Not only is Pixar hopping on the girl power movement in Hollywood, they've gone and cast a nationality appropriate star in the lead.
Kelly Macdonald, who has been earning raves beginning with her work in "Trainspotting" right up to her current role on "Boardwalk Empire," has replaced Reese Witherspoon as the voice of Princess Merida in "Brave," confirmed Entertainment Weekly, which also has the first concept art from the film.
Set in the Scottish Highlands, "Brave" is a fairy tale about a princess who endangers the rule of her parents, the king and queen (Billy Connolly and Emma Thompson), and must go on a quest to set things right. We're guessing she'll be successful.
"Brave" is due to hit theaters June 22, 2012.

2010 Hyundai Tucson — Review
This 2010 review is representative of model years 2010 to 2015.
By James Tate of MSN Autos
Bottom Line:
Hyundai is keen to what small SUV buyers seek, and has packed the all-new Tucson with the goods it needs to take on competition like the Honda CR-V. Smart looks and more room are also part of the package.
With more and more consumers shying away from gas-hungry, full-size sport-utility vehicles, almost every carmaker is jumping on the crossover bandwagon, causing the segment to swell in number of offerings faster than, well, the SUV segment did back in the early '90s when fuel efficiency wasn't even a blip on most car buyers' radars.
To keep its Tucson fresh amid a sea of capable competition, Hyundai has grown the smallish utility vehicle in overall size and given it an efficient 2.4-liter 4-cylinder engine that's good for up to 31 mpg on the open road. Throw in optional all-wheel drive and the choice of a 6-speed manual or automatic transmission and the Tucson is well-worth the $18,995 base price.
Model Lineup
In GLS guise, the Tucson comes with power steering, a tilt steering wheel, power windows and door locks and 17-inch steel wheels. The newest CUV from Hyundai also packs plenty of safety technology. Even in base GLS trim, the car comes with six airbags, anti-lock brakes and enough acronym-laden traction aids to make your head spin. If you can do without the leather interior touches of the Limited model, the GLS delivers plenty of safety at a remarkably low price point.
For a little extra cash, Hyundai will let you outfit the Tucson GLS with features usually found on the more expensive Limited model. The Popular Equipment Package includes a telescoping, leather-wrapped steering wheel and Bluetooth hands-free calling. You can also add a Navigation Package complete with rearview camera for safety when backing up.
Stepping up to Limited trim adds a few luxury amenities like power heated side-view mirrors, 18-inch alloy wheels, automatic climate control and plenty of leather inside. There's also significantly more brightwork outside, with chrome accents on the grille and door handles. More importantly, Bluetooth hands-free calling comes standard on the top-of-the-line Tucson.
Though opting for the Limited trim will give you nearly all of the otherwise optional equipment on the spec sheet, buyers can spring for a Premium package. Along with a massive panoramic sunroof, you also get a good navigation system and premium audio.
Under the Hood
The automatic transmission was developed in-house and is an excellent piece of engineering. The Tucson never spends any time laboring or hunting for a gear, which speaks volumes about the ratio choices and programming expertise of its designers. A downshift comes with each tap of the brakes, ensuring the driver has plenty of power to make a pass or power out of corners.
All-wheel drive is also available on both GLS and Limited models, though it can be paired only with the 6-speed automatic transmission. We can't see that being a huge worry for buyers more interested in a nice interior and pleasant drive over any off-road prowess.
No matter the configuration, the 2010 Tucson isn't a bear at the pump. In front-wheel-drive automatic guise, the CUV can return 23 mpg city/31 mpg highway. Even the thirstier all-wheel-drive, automatic version can manage up to 21/ 28 mpg — pretty solid numbers for a vehicle with this kind of cargo space.
Inner Space
While the Tucson's dash boasts conservative styling, everything is well-laid-out, without the deluge of buttons and dials that so many manufacturers resort to these days. Similarly, the gauge cluster borrows the simple, well-executed look of other Hyundai family members. While there's still plenty of plastic around to remind you you're not driving a BMW, the excellent seats — especially in Limited trim — and solid controls make the Tucson feel like the quality transportation it is.
On the Road
While the Tucson has a tight turning circle, the electric steering lacks feedback, with a wide dead center and vague response at speed. Nissan's Rogue offers better feel, but if you're looking at CUVs, chances are you couldn't care less as long as the steering wheel turns the front wheels. The ride is comfortable and the cabin is quiet — two things that make a huge difference in this segment.
But what's really impressive is how well the smallish 4-cylinder engine handles the Tucson's considerable weight. When fully laden with luxury goodies and the all-wheel-drive system, this Hyundai tips the scales at well over 2 tons. That's a lot for any engine to haul around, much less an economical four cylinder. But the Tucson sings right along without complaint, thanks to that magic 6-speed automatic gearbox and well-developed software to match.

These were Not good. I wish I'd just eaten the avocado plain. This recipe is a waste of time. I tried baking and frying the slices. Fried was infinitely better, though that's like comparing a solid turd to diarrhea. If you are determined to make these, go ahead, but don't say I didn't warn you. Pictured is blue cheese, but I ended up making a honey ginger hoisin dipping sauce which was way better than this shit. Seriously, they sucked.

And now, here we are eight weeks into the season, and more and more players have turned in impressive performances. Players such as Shadon Seabrook, a gifted athlete who had been a standout cornerback for the past few seasons at Orlando University High. He has taken on the role of running back for the surprising Cougars this year, and what do you get? A Class 8A, District 3 title, that's what.
If that were the case, players like Bishop Moore's QB Danny May and RB Jak Ramsburger and DB Trey Anderson would be near the top of the list. I love those guys. However, we're talking recruiting, and the little guys often get left out.
Here's a look at some of the newcomers to the Sentinel's 2013 Central Florida Super60:
Shadon Seabrook, RB, 5-foot-10 and all of 170 pounds soaking wet, Orlando University: What more can we say about Seabrook. He's become somewhat of a folk hero for those who are a bit smaller and not quite as fast as what you might like to see at running back. But he flat out gets it done. Colleges are starting to look in a bit closer.
Chris Board, S, 6-2, 205, Orlando Timber Creek: Board is very, very close to his first offer from an FBS school and officially received his first offer overall this past weekend from Bethune-Cookman. He's a big-bodied safety with good speed and has four interceptions on the year.
Keith Dilley, TE/DE, 6-2, 230, Orlando Edgewater: Dilley has emerged as a go-to guy for Edgewater when it needs some sure yardage. He also attacks on defense. Likely a college H-back type, he has better speed than most other Central Florida tight ends. Dilley is awaiting his first offer.
Vernon Marshall, WR, 6-2, 172, Winter Garden West Orange: Marshall has been a solid contributor for the Warriors for three seasons now, but he has really shown his ability to battle in traffic and fight for the football this season. He could use a few more pounds, but his height is ideal, and he has helped West Orange put up big numbers this year on offense. He has a Middle Tennessee State offer.
Shane Schroeder, DE, 6-4, 220, Altamonte Springs Lake Brantley: Schroeder is one of the leaders of a swarming defense that is one of the best in the area when playing well. He's long and has good quickness. Could use some more pounds on a terrific frame, and that will come. He has not even begun to realize his potential. Missouri has begun preliminary talks with him.
QB Jujuan Young Battle (6-0, 160) and WR Tyrian Taylor (5-10, 170), Orlando Jones: The duo has combined for more than 1,000 yards passing and 20 touchdowns this season. Young Battle is well over 2,000 yards passing for the season with his other receivers, including Kermit Whitfield. These guys are small but could wind up at lower-level FBS schools. Likely FCS for them, though.

There was a split second there where his like, "wait, what? bro what are you doing?"
On more serious note, PTSD dogs for veterans are so fucking therapeutic. They're like the one person you can spill your guts to and never worry about ever being judged or have that secret divulged. There are times when I definitely prefer the company of a dog over a human.
Therapy animals save lives.
These dogs are even still so much more amazing. They check rooms before their handler enters, so they can clear it to help the person feel safe. Like in the gif, they are there when panic attacks or nightmares occur, to be something for the person to help ground themselves on, or yes just to turn on the lights. Even more amazing, many people are able to reduce their medication when they have a PTSD service dog there to help them. These dogs are useful for not just veterans, but also victims of abuse, accident trauma, natural disasters, and others. Their training allows them to be useful in situations where medical assistance is needed, as well. Some PTSD dogs are trained to recognize repetitive behaviours in handlers, and signal the handler to break the repetition and stopping the behaviour and possibly injury.
Service dogs in general are just awesome. Remember to respect any that you see out in public. They are not there for you to walk up to and play with, even the puppies!

SPOKANE COUNTY, Wash. - Liberty Lake Police Department contacted Better Business Bureau alerting of a scam targeting the Spokane region. A Spokane resident received a call from a (509) area code phone number claiming to be a police deputy named 'Wilkerson.' The supposed 'deputy' aggressively told the Spokane man he had an outstanding bill and would be arrested if he didn't pay up. The scammer provided a (972) area code phone number for the man to call back and pay.
The victim chose to call the phone number showing on his caller ID, and to his surprise, he reached the Spokane Sheriff's Regional Training Center, who knew nothing of the call. After receiving a second call from the same phone number, the resident researched to find and contact Officer Taj Wilkerson with the Liberty Lake Police Department who informed the Spokane man there was no investigation into a debt and this was indeed a scam.
Officer Taj Wilkerson followed up with the alleged 'debt collector' and contacted the (972) phone number and reached an operation claiming to be in Dallas, Texas. The contact person provided a bogus address and refused to provide any further details.
Fake debt collection calls are a very serious scam, and victims must remain calm amidst aggressive, threatening tactics often used by scammers.
Better Business Bureau offers a few tips when faced with a fake debt collection call:
Never provide or confirm bank account, credit card, or other personal information over the phone until you have confirmed the legitimacy of the call.
Ask the debt collector to provide official documentation which substantiates the debt.
Know your rights, familiarize yourself with the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, which describes both the collectors and debtors rights in the process.
Be wary. Local police or any other governing body will NEVER contact you out of the blue about a debt.
If you receive a threatening call claiming to be from a local police department, please report it to your BBB by calling 509-455-4200

As Ive toted Cloud Atlas around campus, people have asked, Whats it about? Simple question. Tough answer. Cloud Atlas tells six apparently unrelated stories: that of Adam Ewing, a scrivener voyaging home to San Francisco from the South Pacific in 1850; of Robert Frobisher, of a bisexual, indigent composer working as an amanuensis in Belgium between the wars; reporter Luisa Rey, who uncovers a conspiracy in 1970s California; of Timothy Cavendish, a near-future London publisher conned by his brother; of Sonmi-451, a fabricant in a hypercapitalist 22nd century Korea dreaming of equal rights; and of Zachry, a tribesman in post-apocalyptic Hawaii whose life is changed by a woman from another society.
Sound complicated? For any other novelist, this would be enough material for six novels, but Mitchells narrative fireworks arent finished. Each story breaks off at a crucial point and jumps to the next characters tale until the final story, at which point the characters lives begin to cascade into each other and the novel boomerangs back to where and when it began. Revolutionary or gimmicky? Frobisher wonders about his latest opus in a phrase which applies equally well to Mitchells novel. Shant know until its finished, and by then itll be too late.
Cloud Atlas is a definite improvement over Ghostwritten, which employed a similar leap-frogging structure, in that Mitchell has honed his laser-sharp characterizations even further and now uses both first and third person narratives.
Whereas Ghostwrittens protagonists sounded much the same, the novels new narrators each have their own distinctive voices. Adam Ewing writes his journal in pitch-perfect Victorian English, while Sonmi-451s corpocratic dialect sounds like nothing youve ever read before not even Zachrys post-apocalyptic patois.
The daisy-chain structure in Cloud Atlas is indeed dazzling, as its back-cover blurbs enthuse, and Mitchell juggles his stories brilliantly. Through the course of the novel, it becomes clear that these narratives, seemingly so disparate, are deeply connected, and these connections seem like the most natural things in the world; Mitchell easily avoids the postmodernist pitfall wherein artifice for its own sake trumps art.
Indeed, Mitchell may be a genius. Though he shares postmodernisms concern with form for forms sake (As if Art were the What, not the How! Frobisher remarks dismissively), he isnt above poking a little metafictional fun at his own endeavor.
A Brit by birth, Mitchell lived for eight years in Japan, and all his novels take place at least in part on the Pacific Rim or in London. Aspects of Buddhism (particularly reincarnation and non-violence) are central to his philosophy, and as each character confronts issues of power, justice, tyranny and human nature, Mitchells belief in humanitys positive and negative potential is made nearingly manifest.
Cloud Atlas unflinchingly exposes the darkest side of human nature and its ruinous consequences; after the Fall, most of the Earth is dead-zoned and all cities are in ruins, leaving troglodytes and neo-barbarians to struggle against eachother among the paltry remains of the Civlize. I suspect that Mitchell employed the interlocking narrative structure to avoid ending the novel on the dark notes of many characters tales; Ewings concludes with an espousal of cautious optimism. One fine day, he muses, a purely predatory world shall consume itself. ... In an individual, selfishness uglifies the soul; for the human species, selfishness is extinction.
I dont think Mitchells writing has ever been more passionate, although he never resorts to melodrama (Frobishers story is particularly wrenching), and by the end of Cloud Atlas, the reader agrees with Ewing wholeheartedly.
Still, some doubts linger. In Cloud Atlas, Mitchell brings the apocalyptic undercurrents of his previous novels to the forefront, and the novel remains darkly equivocal about humanitys ability and willingness to better itself. Given that Ghostwritten features a narrowly averted apocalypse caused by good intentions, and that the denouement in number9dream involves a catastrophic earthquake, one has to wonder whether Mitchell believes in the possibilities he preaches, or whether hes trying to convince himself as well as his audience.

haute école d'Art et de design Genève Geneva university of art and design
Latest addition : 12 November 2013.
The Cinema/cinéma du réel curriculum is organised into six semesters over three years. Each year is placed under the educational leadership of a filmmaker, a theorist and an assistant, under the general responsibility of the Head of Department.
1st year: looking and listening for an auditory and visual exploration of different spaces. First recorded sounds, first images conceived, from photography to film. First texts, editing and shooting. The body in space, the actor in natural and artificial light. Film workshop with a renowned filmmaker. A television documentary. First "real short film" shot in 16mm Bolex.
2nd year: from writing to editing, from filming to mixing. Film workshop with a team of professionals to assist the students left to rely on their own savoir-faire. Casting, directing actors, documentary approaches to the real, the construction of narrative. Workshop with an artist to enrich the relationships between film, visual arts and the practices of display. Cinematic writing, how "to write" a film project. A Great Journey outside the Swiss cantons for short films in search of other realities.
3rd year: the Diploma film involves a series of workshops, ranging from scriptwriting or documentary step outline to casting and directing actors, from finding locations to cutting, while furthering understanding of the cinéma du réel and of the essay and while seeking the most individual writing possible to create a film closest to the student's desires and ambitions. Writing of the Bachelors dissertation, theoretical work dialoguing with the film work.
Throughout the curriculum, there are courses devoted to the economics of cinema, the questions of funding and the establishment of production records.
The three years of the Bachelors course are designed to interrelate closely with the theoretical courses. The poetics of authors, and the aesthetics of the cinema are questioned.

Improving female literacy in the maternal language as a significant contribution to helping women to control their fertility
Literacy is the ability to decode and encode the language you already know. In the "advanced" world it is taken for granted. In the "Third World" it is not; most established institutions insisting on teaching the lingua franca, or the colonial language, or English, rather than the languages people actually speak..
This practice produces an inevitably secondrate literacy, (and thus an underclass,) for all but the most gifted and wealthy, for it involves learning a new language at the same time as alphabetical coding and decoding, rather than, as in the developed world, one AFTER the other,
Making the transition to literacy in a language you don't ALREADY know is a mistake, since it abandons the obvious idea that you can hear what you are reading. It means that you are condemned to exerting yourself at great length to master the colonial/national language and its systems, or to flounder about in a language of which you know only the most rudimentary parts, and probably none of the idioms, thus permanently marking out your "class" and making any real literacy in that language highly unlikely
Female literacy is, as much research shows, the SOLE conistent correlate to drops in fertility. Worldwide, they march together (see Connelly, Fatal Misconception, a magisterial history of the brutal, forcible and misguided efforts by governments and NGOs at birth control).
The answer, then, for those .concerned to remedy the disempowerment of a large proportion of women in relation to family planning, is to promote literacy in the maternal language, the mother tongue. And, therefore, to devise a program readily translatable into ANY alphabetic language, to be offered to women who show up to neo-natal clinics, designed so that any native speaker of the given language could readily supply the local elements of the program. This program would spread (like TED) like wildfire.
It would be a perfect embodiment of the global mission of the Gates Foundation.
Showing single comment thread. View the full conversation.
Jul 16 2012: I do not believe that the simple matter of promoting literacy in native languages is the answer to female disempowerment - whether in a third world country or in the USA - where women have lost most of the progress they gained in the last 40 years. You have to look at the SYSTEM that encourages men to look at women and women to look at themselves as inferiors. Treatment of women is a SYMPTOM of a curable problem.
Education always helps - let there be no question. Literacy is part of that, and literacy in any language is a good thing. BUT, if you are being taught lies and misinformation in any language, you haven't taken much of a step just by teaching literacy.
Nearly 30 years ago, my worldview crashed, and I was left knowing that I needed a replacement. I also knew that I wasn't sufficiently educated to do so, so I began to educate myself. This was before the Internet, so I became very familiar with my local library and book stores. One part of my education included being well-read, so I joined a book club that offered the 100 greatest books. After about 20 books, I realized that the list was obviously written by men, because all the books painted a rather dim view of women. Had I not been educating myself in other fields at the same time, I would never have been able to even recognize that I was being systematically disempowered - not only through the use of literature, but through cultural (and legal) programming.
By the time my education got around to understanding the various economic models that are possible, I learned how our current (global) economic model CREATES the problems that we are spending money trying to fix. It did so in order to maintain the illusion (lie) that it serves us. It was the economic model that had been enslaving me without my conscious awareness.
I conclude by saying that unless information is honest, literacy helps little. We need people encouraging others to educate themselves at the most basic levels. Literacy = 1.
Jul 16 2012: Gail, your contribution to the conversation is most inspiring. I have been teaching literature for some forty-odd years, and my object has invariably been to launch students into their self-education. My own education - though I got a doctorate - was itself almost entirely of this kind, beginning in my very early teems sixty-odd years back. Key books for me were those of Kenneth Burke (almost entirely self-taught), Paolo Freire's Pedagogy of the oppressed., Ivan Illych's Deschooling Society, and A.S. Neill's Summerhill. I feel you would love these books, particularly Freire and Ilych.
My notion of maternal literacy is, as you point out, no panacea, though I believe it could make a contribution.
particularly in the context of clinics in very rural parts of Africa (which remain very multi-lingual) and, say, Pakistan. .
Although it is rather a dense historical book, I also recommend - around the issue of birth control (as distinct from controlling one's own fertility via family planning ) - Connelly's Fatal Misconception. It deals with the ghastly and brutal birth-control movement of the later 20th century. He also indicates that it was largely the work of the neo-feminists of the seventies which put a stop to it. . . He also documents the connection between family planning and literacy.
Jul 16 2012: Let's look at the issue from a mathematical context. I can fly to Africa and spend a few years teaching the best and most able how to read (if village leaders permit me to educate the females who still endure female genital mutilation) But I would have to also provide books and/or computer technology to make it meaningful and that's a BIG obstacle. Then I could go to Pakistan and do the same (being a woman, I would be allowed into many homes that you would not). I could do the same thing. Getting information to Pakistani women is far more difficult because so many are not allowed to leave their homes unescorted by a male (either the one who tacitly "owns" them or someone assigned by him).
In the meantime, I could spend far less time going about teaching mothers who are holding their infants who are dying of malnutrition and thirst (because milk has dried up) about birth control. I don't need them to be literate to understand the relevance of that.
Before you can expect to improve female literacy, you have to fix the system that imprisons them. Though we know HOW to do that, it's a well-guarded secret among those in the higher echalons of the hierarchy of every culture.
Literacy can be a 2-headed monster. Lacking good reading material,missionaries may come and say that the Bible is the only readable book and it says that women are to be silent and submissive - or they will go to hell. How do you explain to an African villager why quantum mechanics is essential knowledge?
I'm all for literacy, and I'm all for birth control on this planet that has already exceeded its ability to sustain our numbers. But what works in Appalachia doesn't work in the places you speak of until there is a willingness on the part of the slave owners to allow the slaves to be educated. They know, just as American slave holders knew, that education is a threat to slavery.
How do you intend do get around that conundrum?
Thx 4 the book suggestions. Will look into.
Jul 16 2012: I will try to be clear. I am not offering any kind of panacea or cure for the manifold forces at work to prevent women from becoming literate: simply a gateway to a gateway, just as Pythagoras is a gateway to the calculus. I would also sharply distinguish "birth-control" as a public policy from family planning, the former lending itself to coercive methods, the latter aiming to enhance the agency of women. I believe literacy enhances female agency.
J MAug 2 2012: "surprise, surprise, it turns out that they are actually human beings !"
Everybody is a human being. Says nothing; typical political talk.
Children are "human beings" Should they be in charge of the everyone's sex lives? Health? Child rearing protocols? Big picture decision making?
Children are already protected and provided for. (If they were females --rather than children-- they would be the cause of everyone's' competition too.) What do they need "agency" for? For what purpose? So they can make it more difficult for the protector
class and competing classes?
Jul 18 2012: Gail, I'm thinking that you may be trying to make a distinction between rote memorization of words, which in and of itself is not reading, with critical thinking, in which the reader uses text as a jumping off place for thought.
Are you perhaps suggesting that the reader must be prepared to challenge the content of a text, while at the same time working to fully understand the intent of the author?

To hear comedian Derek Waters tell it, the idea for Drunk History came about when New Girl actor Jake Johnson had a few drinks and was trying to tell him a passionate anecdote about the late singer Otis Redding.
"He was trying to tell me that Otis Redding knew he was gonna die. I didn't really buy the story," Waters said in an interview, "but he was so passionate about it and he wasn't able to articulate everything. I just kept picturing Otis Redding reacting to this guy telling a story about how he knew he was gonna die and I thought, `That would be cool to reenact.'" (Redding was killed in a plane crash in 1967.)
Soon after, Waters and director Jeremy Konner were making Internet shorts. They filmed actor Mark Gagliardi getting drunk and reciting a historical story that was a bit messy because of the alcohol. A celebrity would then act out the story, complete with hiccups, slurring or other signs of an inebriated storyteller.
The videos were posted to the website FunnyorDie.com in late 2007. Celebrity participants included Johnson, Michael Cera, Nick Offerman and Ryan Gosling.
Now Drunk History, based on the Web series, is in its first season on Comedy Central, airing Tuesdays at 10 p.m. Each half-hour episode focuses on one U.S. city, with three historical reenactments from various time periods in the same location. Celebrity guests include Bill Hader and Kevin Nealon.
Konner said that while it can be amusing to film a drunken friend telling a story, it's "far and away" more entertaining to direct the celebrity reenactments.
"Drunk people can be very funny but they also can get very repetitive, very apologetic, very sad, angry, depressed and physically ill," he said. "Those aren't particularly wonderful things to be around all the time. Not to mention it takes four to five hours to record one of these five-minute stories. A person can tell the story quickly but we need to get them drunk enough to mess up."
Yes, the show finds the funny in drinking and storytelling, but the stories shared on Drunk History are fact-based and researched before filming.
"We would never do stories that are completely made up, and obviously the facts or events are changed a little bit but when they're not real, we point that out. Overall the stories are true," Waters said.
"I'll have notes, and sometimes the person who is telling the story will give me their notes and say, `Hey, here's all the stuff I want to hit tonight.' Sometimes they'll say, `Can you just remember to tell me 1836? I always forget it's 1836,' " Konner added.
If the show is picked up for a second season, they have collected more material they're ready to share.
"There's so many things about it that I get incredibly excited about. These are true stories, told in a way you've never heard, literally and figuratively," laughed Konner. "Do we take liberties once in a while with dialogue? Maybe here and there. But if somebody's got to get totally wasted to teach America, God bless."

|Looks extremely high poly. Any special hardware requirements ?
Good, that you talk about this...
My opinion is to use single interieurs for different locations, so we can have more then 18 locations with interieur. If you go to an interieur, e.g. 17 all DFFs with No 17 as 3rd entry in the IPL will be shown, but interieur must have no large viewdistance and only the interieur near the player will be shown, this will save polygones on interieur 0 (outside) and gives us more room for building highdetailed objects.
Decay: Keep on, good work. But texture your objects before you copie them. You will become mad on texturing 14 computer one after the other
Posted 13 December 2003 - 07:02 AM
So far, theres no requirements, since I havent even tried to install it into VC.
@ ODIE- I forgot to texture the pc and copy afterwards when I did that. Theres no way in hell im going to retexture every pc by hand.
Posted 13 December 2003 - 06:53 PM
Posted 14 December 2003 - 12:05 AM
Maybe you should rely more heavily on textures, because we have to recognize the difference between cad modelling and video game modelling.

I have an updated screenie somewhere, but can't find it.
And for some reason, my project won't open in 3dsm right now. It says it cant open it for some odd reason.
Anyhow, Im creating a variety of things right now, including a mini game, very, very, similar to ODIE's duck shooting game, except its with gophers.
Im also creating a very high detal office builing with an accessible walkway, fountains, etc.
Posted 03 January 2004 - 08:47 PM
For some reason, my classroom wont ope in 3dsm anymore. Eh, I cant use it anyway, its to high poly. It'll lag way to much.
Rk and I are currently making a complete grocery store. No pic or anything though. Its going to be finished within a couple days.
The gopher is probably no longer going to be used anywhere.
and thats about it for right now.

HIDA Scan
(Hepatobiliary Iminodiacetic Acid Scan; Gallbladder Scan; Hepatobiliary Imaging; Biliary Tract Radionuclide Scan; Hepatobiliary Scintigraphy; Cholescintigraphy; HIDA [a technetium-99m disopropyl analogue] Scan)
by Deanna M. Neff, MPH
A HIDA scan is an imaging test. It helps to diagnose problems of the gallbladder and liver.
Bile is a fluid that is made in the liver. It is stored in the bile duct. This fluid helps your body digest certain foods. If there is a problem with the production or flow of bile, a HIDA scan may find the problem.

Reasons for Test TOP
This test is done to:
This test is not done on patients who are pregnant.
Possible Complications TOP
Complications are rare. Some may have an allergic reaction to tracers used in the scan. Talk to your doctor about any allergies you have.
What to Expect TOP
Prior to Test
At the Hospital
Description of Test
You will lie on your back. It is important to lie still during the entire test. Taking deep breaths or focusing on other things may help. The doctor will inject a "tracer drug" into an IV, a needle in a your vein. Children and some adults may also be given a sedative to keep calm. A special camera will track the path of the tracer drug as it goes through your liver, gallbladder, and biliary ducts. The camera will take pictures by scanning your abdomen. It will pass back and forth about every 5-10 minutes for one hour. In some cases, more pictures may be needed 2, 4, or 24 hours later.
Some people may need to be given morphine to create spasms and get a better view of the gallbladder. A fatty meal may also be given to check the digestive process in the intestines near the gallbladder and liver.
After Test TOP
How Long Will It Take? TOP
60-90 minutes
Will It Hurt? TOP
You may feel mild discomfort during the injection, and it may be challenging to stay still for a long time. The imaging does not cause pain.
Results TOP
The doctor is looking for the tracer drug, or darkened areas, on the monitor. A normal result is when the tracer drug, which contains a dye, moves freely through the system. A problem, like a blockage, leak, or inflammation may be present if the tracer drug moves slowly through the system, does not show on the monitor, or is seen in other areas. The doctor may discuss the results of your scan with you.

On Thursday, the Richfield Police Department announced a big break in the cold case murder of 27-year-old Gilbert Toomer, who was fatally shot in a parking lot near the Menard's on 77th and Nicollet in 1998.
After 14 years, prosecutors have charged Michael Scott with two counts of second-degree murder in connection with the killing.
Toomer was one of two men who were ambushed and shot in the parking lot while leaving what was then a Chi-Chi's restaurant. The other victim was taken to an area hospital, but Toomer died of multiple gunshot wounds.
At the time of the shooting, investigators said they believed Toomer was targeted, but no motive was ever previously disclosed. Now, investigators say Scott gunned down Toomer because one of the friends Toomer was with had shot him months before as part of a gang war.
Scott has been in federal prison on drug charges in recent years, and he will make his first court appearance on Friday.
Toomer, who lived in the Twin Cities area for several years, was originally from New Jersey.
