Fabolous – Lights Out (I Don't See Nobody) LyricsFollow
(Light's out, nigga!)
It's clap on, clap off in this bitch
Don't make me turn off ya own switch
(Light's out, nigga!)
You couldn't see me in the daytime with a flashlight
I got my cash right, so
(Light's out, nigga!)
I don't see nobody x8
(Light's out, nigga!)
[Verse 1 - Fabolous]
I walk up in the spot, and see tonight we have a packed house
We are in the building, and it's rocking like a crack house
All the sexy women wearing dresses with they backs out
My neck is usually lit up, but tonight we have a black out
Call me Tom Edison cus I'm about light up
My head is in the clouds, feel like it just took a flight up
They tryna slow me down, like that syrup in them white cups
Clear that I'mma bubble, like you shook a fucking Sprite up
I don't see nobody, I ain't going blind though
I don't see nobody, stopping me from mine, yo
We the Money Gang, we throw up dollar signs ho
My gun from out of town, make you change your state of mind ho
[Verse 2 - Fabolous]
Bottles of Rose keep finding its way to my section
And groups of pretty bitches with them light skin complexion
Told her I'mma kill and I use magnum protection
I just slide up in it baby, that's lethal injection
I'm about that money
Pussies were a food chase
Ho's will have you tied up, bitch I ain't no shoe lace
Smirking in my black shades
My BB and cool face
But I will fix you niggas
You make me get my toolcase
I don't see nobody, but it ain't my vision
I see I'm what it is, and you are what it isn't
Light's out, niggas
Assume position
With my eyes closed I see there is no competition
Edit song description to add:

- An explanation of the song's overall story (example: "In this song, Eminem corresponds with a crazed fan who ends up...")

Project abstract for group lifang
Structural Biology of Human Diseases
This research focuses on the structural biology of human diseases such as viral infections, cancer, and abnormal blood pressure. One line of research examines the receptor recognition mechanisms of viruses. The researchers investigate the structures and functions of virus-surface receptor-binding proteins and their interactions with host receptors. A second line of research explores the structural basis for cancer and abnormal blood pressure. Specifically, the group investigates the structures and functions of mammalian-cell-surface enzymes that are critical for tumor cell growth and blood pressure regulation. Based on these structural studies, the researchers further develop novel therapy strategies to treat human diseases. Their research tools include X-ray crystallography, protein biochemistry, molecular virology, cell biology, drug design, and animal experiments.
A bibliography of this group's publications acknowledging MSI is attached.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"The option to choose a color is a great feature. What I loved most was the ability to change the format. You can add or remove a course with no problems. Also, if you have more to write in the allotted space...DON'T worry! Divas' will fix it and make it work!!"
"I ordered these menu cards for my wedding on May 4, 2012. I received them in approx one week. I chose a custom color and it was perfect. The color was exactly as it appeared online. The paper weight is ideal. My guests found the tag line on the bottom very cute. I would definitely recommend these to any bride to be."
"I'm having a sit down family-style reception so there was no need for all the headings. I was not able to do the online preview because my text did not fit the online template, but I emailed the copy as a Word document with my order and the designer took care of everything. Changes were easily made and when I had a question, my designer returned my call immediately."

We purchased these rings last year for a trade show we were participating at. People were seeking us out, just so they could have one of these rings! You could see them flashing all over the venue! They were a huge hit!

About Me Frequent Host
Passed them out to all females at my husband's retirement party. It realy got the crowd excited. Little girls loved them. Big girls did too--even some men put them on but I don't know how much beer the men had drank to do that. A fun party favor!
fun for a party!

jelly rings were a huge hit at our party (along with the LED light wands) ... I would probably recommed a different design however from the same company. Perfect for a dance party.
Still Blinking!
By Kathy
from Clinton, NJ
About Me Quality Oriented
Purchased samples for a future event and wanted to see how long they would blink continuously. They started out with intense blinking in all colors. After 12 hours the blinking was less intense but they continued to blink for 6 more days with flashes of red and yellow. Great fun! Wish they could be recycled.

Awesome and inexpensive
By Sam's Dad
from Geneva, IL
Bought a box of these on a whim, to give out to kids who didn't have anything blinky at the 4th of July fireworks (and who didn't get any of our more expensive spinners and batons). Perfect for the job. Bonus, two of our bicycle lights went on the fritz on the ride and we used several of these little gel rings as bike marker lights for the ride home. Not high power LEDs, but made enough light to keep us from getting run over.
By Bar MItzvah Mom
from Detroit, MI
After comparing reviews and prices I ordered these from Windy City Novelties for my son's Bar MItzvah party. They were a huge hit and were very visibly blinking during daylight hours in a room with lots of windows. I would imagine that they are even more fun at night or in dimly lit rooms. I would definitely order these again for our next Bar MItzvah!

love these
By soccermom
from little rock, ar
Just got these in. Love love love them. I should have listened to the other reviews and ordered at least 2 boxes, because these will go fast. Was worried if they would be too tight, but they are stretchy enough to fit any adult. Not sure yet how long they last. Perfect for night time dances/parties/clubs.
Perfect for the girls
By ljpersin

Girls of all ages loved these flashing rings. I wish I had bought more.
Perfect-great value and hit of the party
By Matt the party planner
from Philadelphia
I have used these rings for a number of parties and they are always a HUGE hit. Kids and adults love them. Most times, they put 3 or 4 on a hand, so be sure to order plenty... also, since these are much cheaper than the others I have found, I can afford to buy more.
Very Bright!
By Booster Shelly
from Ronan, MT
Great booster seller! The way it turns on you have to squeeze the inside just right. We had a few that got squeezed wrong and broke. But most lasted quite awhile! Also ordering is misleading.. You can't really order a dozen, it forces you to order 24 as that's how many comes in the display box?!? Good price regardless..
Great Product
By DebB

I bought the rings for a girls cruise Feb 2012 - we wore the rings to dinner one evening and they were a big hit. Really got the attention from other passengers.

These were fun and colorful- we used them as a gift with purchase of a raffle ticket for an auction. My only complaint would be that of the 72 that we purchased, about 10 of them didn't work.

We use the glow items as swag. Our guests have a lot of fun with them. The only problem is that there is always a defective bunch in everything. Rings, necklaces, glasses you name it.

The finding is an exciting confirmation that black holes can 'flicker', moving from maximum power to switching off over, in cosmic terms, short periods of time.
"For 20 years astronomers have suspected that such a significant outburst occurred, but now we know when this sleeping dragon, four million times the mass of the sun, awoke and breathed fire with 100 million times the power it has today," said Professor Joss Bland-Hawthorn, lead author of an article on the research to be published in The Astrophysical Journal, from the University's School of Physics.
Ahead of publication, Professor Bland-Hawthorn will unveil the research at the international Galaxy Zoo science conference on 24 September in Sydney.
"It's been long suspected that our Galactic Centre might have sporadically flared up in the past. These observations are a highly suggestive 'smoking gun'," said Martin Rees, Astronomer Royal, who was one of the first scientists to suggest that massive black holes power quasars.

It's a nice thought, a year off with no work commitments, just r&r. Shame it didn't come into fruition, Gellar gets on my nerves.
Where does Larry come up with this stuff? I have heard that the guys wanted Elvis to take a year off and go to Hawaii for relaxation and get in shape. But move to Hawaii? He loved Graceland and Memphis to much. I could see him buying a house there because how much he loved it there. (As do I) What do you think?
Love Elvis...The Greatest
RIP Tommy
It's a nice thought, a year off with no work commitments, just r&r. Shame it didn't come into fruition, Gellar gets on my nerves.
Well, Larrys says he wanted to move there for a year. It doesn't mean he wouldn't go back and forth to Memphis, I guess. I can see Elvis doing this or at least wanting to do it.
"Elvis at the end of his life was making big changes and plans for his future and he was going to stop touring and stop working entirely," said Elvis Presley's hair dresser, Larry Geller. "And we had the house picked out here on the other side of the island. Elvis was going to come here for a year and get really healthy, change my diet, get in the water everyday, and get charged. Then i'm going to go back to hollywood and make movies as an actor".
Hawaii is very beautiful and the people are wonderful. I travelled there for the first time in '08. It certainly is a change of pace as opposed to the rest of the USA. I think it would have been beneficial for Elvis to have resided there, at least for part of the year.
I have read some of Geller's comments about Elvis and I personally take them with a grain of salt.
BTW, how long did Geller remain Elvis' hairdresser, as I have read that a woman did Elvis's hair for the Aloha Concert. I don't remember her name. WOuldn't Geller have done his hair if he was as close to Elvis as he has claimed?
of all the 'conversations' in Memphis last August...Larry's 'conversation' was the only one where people looked fidgety and bored
"NO-ONE, BUT NO-ONE,IS HIS EQUAL, OR EVER WILL BE. HE WAS, AND IS SUPREME".Mick Jagger
Then he was banned from the group by Colonel Parker because the Memphis mafia guys thought all the new age religions that Geller introduced Elvis to was screwing his mind up.
Geller was allowed back into group in 1976 after Elvis fired Red, Sonny and Dave.
So Geller was around Elvis for about 4 years total.
There are times when people think outloud-even daydream outloud....its making inner ideas/ desires/thoughts known...but that does not always mean the person doing so has full intentions of taking definitive action on those musings.
Work in Progress!
But I do not think she was in the 24/7 on call situation that most of the MMwere..... she was definitely considered close to all from what I have heard and read.
Work in Progress!
I saw Larry Gellar in the lobby of the Peabody in August and I was like, "Um no". He just seems like such a flake. As much as wish Elvis could have had the freedom to find himself more spiritually, I am glad they got rid of Larry.
"Music is the voice that tells the human race it is greater than it knows" -Napoleon Bonaparte
Elvis told others in the group that he wanted to change his lifestyle around those times. I remember Billy Smith saying something similar, not exactly this about Hawaii, but the intention was the same. So I don't find what Geller says so strange.
I don't know if the changing the lifestyle part is true but taking a year off and going to Hawaii was at least discussed.
I've heard Lamar Fike say that he discussed with Elvis about going to Hawaii and relaxing for a year.
But according to Lamar Elvis would always put it off.
Larry talks as if it was an absolute certainty.
So yeah i'm suspicious of what Larry says about this.
I met Larry once must have been back in the 80s and more recently exchanged emails a couple of times. He seems like a nice guy. You should read his book. He's had an interesting life.

About Timbaland
Timothy Zachery Mosley (born March 10, 1972 in Norfolk, Virginia, United States) is a Grammy award winning record producer, rapper and singer whose style of production and arranging was very influential in music during the mid-1990s. With partner Magoo, he is a member of the hip hop group Timbaland & Magoo and is the older brother of rapper Sebastian. He released his debut solo album, Tim's Bio: Life From Da Bassment in 1998, followed by Shock Value in 2007, and its follow up, Shock Value II in 2009. He has produced hit tracks for many artists and has his own record label, Mosley Music Group. Timbaland is similar to producers such as Norman Whitfield in that he helped to redefine the sound of an entire genre of music with an immediately recognizable production style. The songs he produces feature unusual arrangements, sounds, and instrumentation, tied together by a trademark sense of rhythm. Like Spector and Whitfield, Timbaland's production sometimes overshadows the credited perf ... Read More

A Perl script implements a singing, musical Internet
The boom-sender script is installed on the hosted machine; the Perl modules required for this are available from CPAN. AccessLog::Parser has dependencies for Getopt::Helpful, Date::Piece, File::Fu, and Class::Accessor::Classy.
If your provider refuses to install these, you can add a module directory in the user-writable area on the hosted machine and add the directive
use lib "/home/name/perl-modules";
to the Perl script to point it to the new location.
Alternatively, you could set up your own Perl installation in the user-writable area of the hosted machine.
Also, you could consider the PAR toolkit, which allows you to pack module archives and even executables without installation worries in a similar style to Java JAR files.
To reflect your local setup, you will need to modify the URL sound file mappings set up by the file2sound() function in boom-sender.
Make sure the sound files you reference are available on the sound server.On the sound server, the sound files are installed in $SOUND_DIR. The /usr/share/sounds/purple directory has a useful selection of short sounds.
In this directory the Pidgin IM client (formerly known as Gaim) stores the sound data that the program outputs when buddies log on or off or that it uses to notify the user of incoming or outgoing instant messages.
After starting the sound server boom-receiver and letting it run in the foreground, performing a short test with the telnet client in another terminal, and setting up the SSH tunnel referred to earlier, you can launch your logfile monitoring system script on the hosted machine, sit back, and enjoy the concert.
In addition to the requested URL paths, the sound server could also play sounds whenever a request fails. The web server stores the return code for each request in access.log, and the log parser provides access to it with the $fields{code} hash entry.
To make sure you get the system administrator's attention, you might like to use flatulent noises or explosions for this.

Food safety is important for people who are receiving or recovering from cancer treatment. Cancer and cancer treatments, such as chemotherapy, radiation treatment, and bone marrow/stem cell transplants, can weaken the immune system, making it harder for your body to fight infection. This effect lasts until at least a few weeks after treatment ends, sometimes longer.
Foodborne illness (also called food poisoning) occurs when you eat food that contains harmful bacteria, parasites, or viruses. Foodborne illness can be severe and sometimes fatal, especially if you have a weak immune system or are very old, very young, or pregnant.
Raw foods are a common cause of food poisoning. Proper cooking destroys bacteria, but they can grow on cooked food if it is left out too long. Some bacteria, such as Listeria, can grow even on foods stored in the refrigerator if they are kept for too long. Food also can become contaminated when someone infected with a virus (often a norovirus) or other "bug" handles it.
If you are receiving or recently finished cancer treatment, pay close attention to food safety rules, such as washing your hands. Be extra careful when handling, preparing, and storing food, and avoid some foods entirely, even if you may have eaten them with no problems in the past. Talk with your doctor or another member of your health care team about how long you should take food precautions and when you may return to eating certain foods again.
Foods to avoid
Some foods have a higher risk of food poisoning. Here are some foods that can become tainted with bacteria, such as Listeria (causing an infection called listeriosis), E. coli, Salmonella, Campylobacter, and Vibrio, in addition to Toxoplasma, a parasite.
- Cold hot dogs or deli lunch meat (cold cuts)—always cook or reheat until the food is steaming hot
- Dry-cured, uncooked salami
- Unpasteurized (raw) milk and milk products, including raw milk yogurt
- Soft cheeses made from unpasteurized milk, such as blue-veined (a type of blue cheese), Brie, Camembert, feta, goat cheese, and queso fresco or blanco
- Smoked fish
- Deli-prepared salads with egg, ham, chicken, or seafood
- Refrigerated pâté
- Unwashed fresh fruit and vegetables (especially leafy vegetables that can hide dirt and other contaminants)
- Unpasteurized fruit juice or cider
- Raw sprouts, such as alfalfa sprouts
- Raw or undercooked beef, especially ground beef, or other raw or undercooked meat and poultry
- Raw or undercooked shellfish (such as oysters)—these items may carry the hepatitis A virus and should be cooked thoroughly to destroy the virus
- Some types of fish, both raw and cooked, as they may contain high levels of mercury
- Sushi and sashimi, which often contain raw fish—commercially frozen fish (especially those labeled "sushi-grade" or "sashimi-grade") is safer than other fish, but check with your doctor, nutritionist, or other member of your health care team before eating these foods
- Undercooked eggs, such as soft boiled, over easy, and poached; raw unpasteurized eggs, or foods made with raw egg, such as homemade raw cookie dough
Simple steps for food safety
Think about your water source. Some sources of water may have bacterial and chemical contamination. Well water may have bacterial contaminants. Community-supplied tap water is fine for healthy individuals, but it is not tested for safety for people with weak immune systems. A water filter that removes spores and cysts, as well as trace organics and heavy metals, is recommended for food preparation and drinking. Many types of these filters are for sale in stores.
Cleaning up. Wash your hands and the counter or surface where you prepare food often, using hot water and soap. Also clean the top of cans before opening them. Rinse fresh produce under running water, and dry it with a clean towel or paper towel. Hard fruits and vegetables, even those labeled "organic," should be lightly sprayed with a vegetable cleaning soap before washing them and then rinsed well. When washing your hands, rub them together for 20 seconds and pay special attention to areas between fingers and under nails.
Prevent cross-contamination. Keep raw meat, poultry, and fish or their juice away from other food since bacteria can spread, causing cross-contamination. Wash all items you used for raw foods (utensils, cutting board, plate, and so on) before using them for other foods or for cooked meat. It is ideal to set aside one specific cutting board for preparing uncooked meat and chicken and never using it for uncooked foods, fruits, and vegetables. Don't rinse raw meat or poultry because it could spread bacteria to nearby surfaces and foods.
Cook food to the right temperature. To make sure cooked food is done, use a food thermometer. Check for a safe internal temperature of all poultry and meat, not just roasts. For instance, a hamburger should be cooked to at least medium (160˚F). Get a full list of recommended internal cooking temperatures.
Chill food promptly. Refrigerate or freeze perishable food within two hours of cooking or buying it (sooner in warm weather).
Thaw food properly. Thaw frozen food in the refrigerator rather than at room temperature. You can also thaw food in frequently changed cold water or in the microwave, but cook it as soon as it thaws.
Dispose of old food. Eat canned and packaged food before its expiration date (the "use by" or "best before" date). Consume refrigerated leftovers within four days. After that time, throw out the food. Even if food does not smell or look spoiled, it may still be unsafe.
Take precautions when eating out. At restaurants, avoid buffets and salad bars where food sits out for a long time and comes in contact with many people. And, if you take home leftovers, put the food in a "to-go" container yourself, rather than having the server do it.
Symptoms of foodborne illness
Symptoms differ depending on the pathogen, or bug, that causes the illness. Most often, symptoms are like those of the stomach "flu" (a virus).
- Diarrhea
- Stomach pain or cramps
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Fever
Sometimes a headache and muscle pains also are present. E. coli usually does not cause a fever, and diarrhea often is bloody.
The time when symptoms begin can vary widely, from a few hours to 10 days after eating the tainted food, or even later. With Listeria, symptoms may not start until a few weeks later. But with most foodborne illnesses, people start feeling sick within the first day or two after infection.
When you suspect foodborne illness
Call your doctor right away if you think you have food poisoning. Drink plenty of fluids to stay hydrated. Because people with cancer are at increased risk of severe illness, early treatment is important.
If you became ill due to eating food at a public place, call your local health department. By reporting it, you may help prevent other people from getting sick.

The best editor I have ever used. It gets used everyday and I am always learning something new about it.
I've also switched to Sublime Text 2, but the one single beef I have with ST2 is that it selects lines differently than most other editors including TM, Coda, Espresso, TextEdit.app, … all of them.
With line selection I'm referring to e.g. when having the cursor on the beginning of a line and pressing ARROW DOWN while holding SHIFT. It places the cursor on the next line instead of just highlighting the current line. I may be the only one in the world who doesn't like this, though.
I've stopped using Textmate a few days ago and switched to Sublime Text 2. Same overal philosophy, only incredibly cooler (and actively developed).
any sftp/ftp support in there?? svn, git, mercurial support? any kind of stuff that IDE has at all????
This app is dead....
Killer, killer, killer application. Incomparably better than alternatives on any platform in my opinion. I used to think BBEdit was very powerful. TextMate goes much further, with a great interface. Excellent stuff.
Developer's best friend.
There are about 3 applications (IMO) worth switching to a Mac to be able to use. Scrivener, Things (or OmniFocus depending on your needs), and TextMate.

These are very obscure candidates for competitors of an editor that runs fully native on Mac, with great features and extendability. I'd rather prefer Emacs or Vim to the ones you describe as "better than TM".. :)

From staff reports
Anyone who drives anywhere near Willard Square in South Portland knows about the gravitational pull of Scratch Baking Co.
Three-cheese pizza and veggie and roast turkey sandwiches at Scratch Baking Co.
John Patriquin/Staff Photographer
WHERE: 416 Preble St., South Portland; 799-0668, scratchbakingco.com
HOURS: 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday to Saturday. Bakery hours are 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday to Friday; 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday; and 7 a.m. to noon Sunday.
CHEAPEST GRUB: $4 for ready-made sandwiches and pizza slices. Plenty of cookies, bagels and other baked goods starting at about $1.
WAIT: Five minutes
PARKING: On street
HANDICAPPED ACCESSIBLE: Yes
You might be on your way to walk the dog at Willard Beach. Maybe you're taking the back way to Southern Maine Community College. Or just maybe, if you're like me, you head that way because you hope to get caught in the bakery's tractor beam.
Han Solo told Chewbacca to "fly casual" right before the Millennium Falcon got caught in the Death Star's tractor beam. As for me, I don't try to escape, because -- if I can jump sci-fi tracks for a bit and get all "Star Trek" on you -- resistance is futile.
There was a time when it was all about the bagels at Scratch. Believe you me, it still is. And it's also about the cookies, the cakes, the glorious array of baked goods and such. The awesomeness of what that place has to offer is as constant as the North Star. You most likely already knew that.
But did you know that Scratch recently expanded? Did you know that you can now get soup, salads and ... wait for it, wait for it ... sandwiches? Yes, Virginia, there are sandwiches at Scratch.
I waited until I was good and hungry (OK, probably a little bit too hungry) before I initiated myself into what I hoped would be a mouthwatering foray into an entirely new dimension of Scratch's already tour-de-force array of offerings. I told myself not to build it up too much, lest I be too disappointed.
But it was love at first sight when I saw the list of sandwiches (all $7.95), and this was followed by further infatuation when I sunk my enthusiastic teeth into the pulled pork. It's described as "slow braised pork shoulder, house-made pickles and slaw on a house roll with tangy sauce."
I describe it as zippy and delicious sandwich perfection. The pork melted on my tongue, and the coleslaw, pickles and sauce held a flavorful dance party in my mouth.
Oh, and I might add that the thing was huge. I could have prolonged the pleasure over two meals. But of course, I didn't. I'm also not officially admitting to tearing into it while still in the car. Who, me?
For added temptation, there was also a basket of pre-made sandwiches of the baguette with ham, swiss and dijon butter for $4. You don't know how close I came to grabbing one for later. But I'll sleep easier knowing they're there when I need them.
The sandwich menu changes every couple of weeks, and the day I stopped in, the list included ham, turkey, roast beef, the pulled pork and a vegetarian offering (roasted sweet potatoes, black bean spread, cilantro peanut pesto, Monterey Jack cheese and greens.). By the way, all of the sandwich meat is cooked on-site, so you had better believe it's fresh.
Tossed salads made to order are $5.95, and there are three varieties. The Scratch chef salad is $6.95. You can also grab containers out of the cooler of freshly made white bean, farro and couscous salads.
Fancy some soup on a chilly winter's day? Twelve ounces costs $4.50, and a 16-ounce container is $6. The soup list changes every couple of days, and when I was there, choices were three bean chili with beef and pork, and a vegetable barley.
Not to be outdone by the new area, the bakery puts out two types of slab pizzas weekdays at 11 a.m. They're $4 per giant piece, and during my visit, the choices were three-cheese with basil or a three-onion. If you're assuming I've had said pizza before, well then, you are quite right.
Scratch Baking Co. already had a really good thing going. Now, with the recent arrival of soup, sandwich and salad offerings, it's in its own galaxy -- which, thankfully, is not far, far away.
May the flour be with you.

"It's just giving it another name," he said by telephone last week. "It's like saying, 'Well, a flame is Fred.' And that really doesn't get you anywhere."
Mr. Alda, now 76, pursued acting rather than science — many people still think of him as Hawkeye Pierce from the television series "M*A*S*H" — but his fascination with the universe persisted.
In the 1990s, he led the collaboration that created "QED," a play about the brilliant, irascible, bongo-playing physicist Richard Feynman, with Mr. Alda playing Dr. Feynman. Also, for 11 years, he hosted the PBS television show "Scientific American Frontiers."
In talking to so many scientists, Mr. Alda wondered how they might do better at explaining their work, and suggested to universities that communication skills should be taught to science majors and graduate students. He made that pitch to officials at Stony Brook University on Long Island, who liked it so much that they founded the Center for Communicating Science in 2009.

Dr. Scott Colley became Berry College's seventh president in June 1998. Since that time, he has provided dynamic leadership for the college, which consistently has been ranked among the South's best. Among the significant accomplishments of his tenure is the construction of a state-of-the-art science building, which has become a model for other colleges and universities, and a new residence hall. An extensive renovation of the Krannert Student Center has been completed, and the Cook Building has been transformed into a home for Berry's Charter School of Education and Human Sciences. In addition, the Normandy Complex – formerly a dairy – has been converted into a first-class conference center. A major renovation project is under way to restore the historic Ford Complex. Other accomplishments include the completion of a new strategic plan, which provides a road map for the first decade of Berry's second century, and the achievement of record-setting fund-raising levels.President Colley's leadership is guided by the knowledge that all work undertaken at Berry is for one purpose - to add value to the lives of the students who come here to learn.In that light, the college has underscored its commitment to its founding mission - to combine challenging academics with practical work experience in a campus environment that encourages spiritual awareness and growth and promotes service to others - with constant attention to ensure that this mission is meeting the needs of students and society in the 21st century.

Play Ball?: Athletes' Liberty to Compete in Sports Faces Numerous Challenges

Too young. Too good. Too foreign. Too… female? In the past few weeks, it seems the sports world has experienced an abundance of discriminatory action, or at least attention, from unhappy folks in youth and professional sports. First, controversy erupted regarding the age of certain Chinese gold-winning gymnasts, who are rumored to [...]Continue Reading →

Scion introduced the first FR-S Release Series car, "drawing on track heritage and...
Ex-Formula One drivers Sébastien Bourdais and Anthony Davidson on Sunday claimed victory in the Imola 6 Hours--the fourth round of the 2011 Intercontinental Le Mans Cup--on a day when Peugeot had the upper hand over archrival Audi.
The Peugeot 908 turbodiesels finished first and second, and a lap clear of the pair of Audi R18 TDIs at the former home of the San Marino Grand Prix. Bourdais, who is also a four-time Champ Car title winner, led for the first two stints before a botched pit stop allowed Stephane Sarrazin to move ahead in the sister car he shared with Franck Montagny.
Davidson closed down a 10-second deficit to Sarrazin and emerged ahead after the next round of pit stops. With the Audis beginning to fade at that stage, Peugeot decided to freeze the running order.
The winning Peugeot looked to have lost the race in the penultimate hour when Bourdais had contact with a slower car and suffered a punctured tire. But eight laps later, Montagny had a similar problem after going off line, switching the Bourdais car back to the head of the leader board.
"This was such a fantastic race to win," Davidson said. "First and second [for Peugeot] is unbelievable; we didn't expect such domination."
Audi's R18s appeared to be in the mix early on, but a combination of braking issues caused by debris blocking the front cooling ducts and the Peugeot's superior straight-line speed, which allowed it to cut through traffic much easier, meant the cars drifted out of contention in the second and third hours.
In the LMP2 class, victory went to the Le Mans-winning Greaves Motorsport Zytek driven by Tom Kimber-Smith, Olivier Lombard and Karim Ojjeh. The Nissan-engined contender wasn't the fastest car in class, but its major rivals all suffered technical glitches.
In GTE, BMW looked on course to win until the car driven by Jorg Muller and Augusto Farfus Jr. received a one-minute stop-go penalty in the final hour. The AF Corse Ferrari team eventually finished one-two, with Toni Vilander and Jaime Melo coming out on top over Gianmaria Bruni and Giancarlo Fisichella, who suffered a repeat of the misfire that deprived them of victory at Le Mans last month.

It is in any case not useful to generalize it, but I would kindly request some profound interpretations and explanations about that possible problem.
In no word there should be seen a good or bad, right or wrong. Just with the amount of distructing that is needed.
With loving kindness
Hanzze wrote:Dear friends,
I can remember that I read some points of Mahayana Teachers that it is very dangerous for practitioner of the great vehicle to change there praxis to the teachings of the school of the elders.
Hanzze wrote:Dear Friends,
I just read it that it is "dangerous" and wanted to ask about the deeper reason. Some also told me it is not good to mix it. Personally I see no different but from personal experiences one needs to be careful to do not lose the "right" motivation for praxis, maybe just a different it times when one steps in.
Hanzze wrote:Dear TMingyur,
so let me use "Pali Canon" as resource for practice and knowledge. A dangerous trap? And why?
And as to vinaya ... Mahayana monastics have their Mūlasarvāstivāda vinaya.

pueraeternus wrote:What I understand is that for the Mahayana practitioner, there is the danger that if he delves too deeply into the supramundane paths of the Sravakayana, he will attain the arya stages too early and slip into the Arhat stream, thus ending his Bodhisattva path prematurely.
TMingyur wrote:tobes wrote:I don't see the premature attainment of arhatship as a particularly dangerous threat here.......
That is relative. arhatship excludes the attainment of Buddhahood which is the goal of the Bodhisattva since he knows that he can be of benefit for others only as a Buddha.
Based on bodhicitta the corresponding attainment of the bodhisattva would be the 8th bhumi but not arhatship.
That is why bodhicitta is of extraordinary significance and should be practiced even in the context of the practice based on the suttas of the pali canon if this "sutta based practice" is to be legitimately called "practice of a bodhisattva". Othewise it would be the practice of a sravaka aiming at arhatship.
Kind regards
tobes wrote:But how do you know which path to follow and what intentions to cultivate without inquiring into and listening to many teachings?
tobes wrote:The thought that someone will be spiritually harmed by encountering the Theravada is scandalous and should be immediately repudiated.
Thus it is that those bodhisattvas,
When striving for the realization of bodhi.
Should not rest in their practice of vigor,
For they have shouldered such a heavy burden.
Until one develops the great compassion and the patiences,
Even though he may have gained irreversibility,
The Bodhisattva is still subject to a form of "dying"
Occuring through the arising of negligence.
The grounds of the Sravakas or the Pratyekabuddhas,
If entered, constitute "death" for him
Because he would thereby sever the roots
Of the Bodhisattva's understanding and awareness.
At the prospect of failling into the hell-realms.
The bodhisattva would not be struck with fright.
The grounds of the Sravakas and the Pratyekabuddhas
Do provoke great terror in him.
It is not the case that falling into the hell realms
Would create an ultimate obstacle to bodhi.
If one fell onto the grounds of the Sravakas or Pratyekabuddhs,
That would create an ultimate obstacle.
Just as is said of one who loves long life
That he is frightened at the prospect of being beheaded,
So too the grounds of the Sravakas and Pratyekabuddhas
Should provoke in one this very sort of fear.
tobes wrote:
Yes, my point is that attaining arhatship or the first bhumi are likely to be fairly remote possibilities at this point.....where gaining good overall knowledge of the dharma in all its traditions should be encouraged not discouraged.
I suppose your point is that intentions even in the early stages of the path matter; and sure, they do. But how do you know which path to follow and what intentions to cultivate without inquiring into and listening to many teachings?
The thought that someone will be spiritually harmed by encountering the Theravada is scandalous and should be immediately repudiated.
TMingyur wrote:tobes wrote:
As mentioned earlier Theravada is very ambiguous: It has a bodhisattva path and the Theravada ideal is practice for the benefit of oneself and others. However the environment of the Theravada sangha is not necessarily conducive for a bodhisattva.
The decisive point as to the Theravada ideal of "practice for the benefit of oneself and others" is whether the corresponding insight is ensued or it remains mere lip service.
Kind regards
tobes wrote:I'm not sure about this: if a bodhisattva has the upaya to practice as a layperson, if they can descend to the hells in order to liberate sentient beings, do you really think they will find great difficulties in a community of Buddhists who uphold the Vinaya? I daresay there are far more challenging environments. And probably, scarcely more conducive environments.
TMingyur wrote:
This has nothing to do with vinaya but with people a bodhisattva who has not yet attained the state of "never falling back" should not associate. A bodhisattva does not associate with Hinayanists and although the Theravada does not teach Hinayana the Hinayanists are a signifcant fraction there and dare to openly raise their voices and critizise the bodhisattva path.
Kind regards

WHEN the history of the Bush administration is written, one of the most disturbing chapters will be the 2006 purge of US attorneys - all Bush appointees - who failed to toe the White House line by aggressively prosecuting Democratic officeholders or winking at possible misdeeds by Republicans.
The sacking of the
Congress rightly wants to know where the orders for the purge came from, and has brought contempt citations against Bush's chief of staff, Joshua Bolten, and his former counsel, Harriet Miers, for refusing to respond to subpoenas. The White House has claimed executive privilege and balked at letting Bolten and Miers testify. At the end of last week, Attorney General Michael Mukasey said he would not refer the contempt citations to a federal grand jury. Pelosi immediately responded that she would go to Plan B, giving the House Judiciary Committee the authority to file a civil lawsuit against Bolten and Miers in federal court.
Earlier in the confrontation, the White House offered to make its officials available if the testimony were in secret, not under oath, and off the record. But negotiations came to a halt after congressional Democrats demanded at least a transcript.
This is not the first time that the executive and legislative branches have locked horns over attempts to secure testimony from administration officials. According to the Congressional Research Service, there have been at least 74 instances in which White House advisers have testified before Congress once a congressional committee had cited them for contempt. The White House would be wise to make this the 75th such case, instead of trying to use executive privilege to defend the politicization of the Justice Department.

FORTUNE -- In July of last year, the political news and opinion site Talking Points Memo proudly declared that it was "excited to announce that tablet and smartphone users can now read TPM on Flipboard," a popular, magazine-style news-reading app for mobile devices.
Last week, TPM founder Josh Marshall informed readers that the site's content no longer appears on either Flipboard or on the competing Google Currents (GOOG) app. The apps "are basically scams against the publishers," he wrote.
Why the total change of heart? Because Flipboard takes whole articles from publishers and -- in many cases, including TPMs -- gives those publishers essentially nothing in return.
MORE: Huawei (yes, Huawei) pushing for global security standards
At least, that's how Marshall interprets the situation. And as things stand for now, he's essentially right. But Flipboard CEO Mike McCue says Marshall jumped the gun, and that he apparently doesn't understand how Flipboard works, or how it will work in the near future. The two have never spoken, McCue says, despite his company's several attempts to reach out to Marshall, who also has not responded to Fortune's requests for comment.
Flipboard displays the content of magazines, newspapers, blogs, and social media sites in a magazine-like format. Readers flip through the pages with a swipe. For bigger publications, full-page ads appear every few pages. Both the content and the ads are in a format that is in several ways vastly superior to reading on the web and many standalone apps -- and in some ways even better than reading a magazine or newspaper. The ads sell for considerably more money than web ads sell for, according to McCue. "From the beginning, we have taken the tried-and-true principles of print and applied them online," he says.
But it's not necessarily a solution for the troubled publishing business, at least not yet. Each publication on Flipboard must sell its own ads, at least for the time being (the company does offer some support). Many smaller publications are not equipped to do so. And the ads are in a format that many publishers and advertisers are not yet used to dealing with -- there are few standards yet. For bigger publications that can sell ads, a presence on Flipboard might often be a much better deal than web ads are. For smaller ones, revenues are either nonexistent or so small that the only real benefit for publishers is the "exposure" they get.
The exposure angle is what irked Marshall. In the days after his initial, somewhat churlish blog post, he expanded on his complaint through a series of edits and additions to the original piece. Marshall acknowledged that "scam" might have been an ill-chosen word (though he did use it again), but he stuck to his assertion that Flipboard is "bad for publishers" because all it offers sites like his is "reach" and "brand awareness." People who read TPM on Flipboard aren't reading it on his site, where the ad revenues are feeble, but at least they're revenues. "You can't eat 'reach' and we can't pay salaries with 'brand awareness'," he wrote. He did acknowledge that "no one forces TPM or other sites to work with these services, and [those services are] not really explicitly lying."
MORE: 10 questions for Keas CEO Josh Stevens
It's hard to know what he thinks they might be implicitly lying about. There's no indication that Flipboard has misrepresented itself. McCue says he understands Marshall's complaint, but he also says that TPM's presence on Flipboard probably helped more than hurt the publication, since TPM only had about 30,000 monthly readers on the service. It's not known how much ads on TPM sell for, but it's probably less than a buck per thousand impressions. And the fact that someone had been reading TPM on Flipboard doesn't necessarily mean they are now reading the website. Some commenters have explicitly said they wouldn't. So maybe it was worth being there just for the "reach" after all.
But more important, McCue says, if Marshall had talked to the company before yanking his content and calling such services "scams," he might have learned that Flipboard is planning to create a program for smaller publishers, enabling them to in effect band together to sell ads. This is a bit of news: Flipboard hasn't formally announced it yet. McCue says the program will launch sometime next year. Further, the company plans to create its own ad team to take the burden off smaller publishers.
"We want to help them," McCue insists. He agrees that the argument by some media pundits -- that "reach" by itself is a good enough reason to be on Flipboard -- is rather witless. "It's very much about the money," he says. "Getting your name out there" isn't of much value if revenue isn't coming in, he acknowledges -- though he adds that a presence on Flipboard puts publications in a much better position for when they can eventually start collecting ad revenue. Building up a readership now will make it easier to sell more ads for more money later.
McCue says he had to start with bigger publications first, simply because they were the best prepared to come on board. They now sell ads to big brands like Gucci, Levi Strauss, and Delta. On average, McCue says, these ads sell for many times what the cost-per-thousand rate is for banner ads on the web.
That's in part because Flipboard's ads are more like magazine ads. They're big (especially on a tablet), arty, and emphasize brand awareness. The value of web ads, meanwhile, is plummeting because they simply don't work for the most part. Making matters worse is the way they are increasingly being sold -- through ad networks where pricing and placement are basically negotiated by computer programs, driving prices ever lower. Brand campaigns are worth much more than the kinds of ads that are churned out by ad programs -- many of which are downright cheesy.
Flipboard takes a cut of all ad revenue that is, according to McCue, very small. "The publishers get the vast majority of revenues," he says, though he won't discuss numbers. He does say that total ad revenues in the company's latest quarter were three times the revenues of the preceding one.
Two other well-known publishers pulled their content from Flipboard last year: Wired and The New Yorker, both Conde Nast titles. The app still displays a bit of introductory text for their articles, and readers who want to see more must click out to their websites. McCue says he hopes to have The New Yorker back at some point ("we're always in talks with everybody"), and notes that those publications left the service just as the New York Times was signing on. Times readers get three free articles a month. After that, they must either subscribe to the paper or prove through a sign-on that they already do. The New Yorker felt that since so much of its content was behind a paywall, it didn't make sense for it to be on Flipboard. That might change now that Flipboard accommodates paywalls, McCue says.
And several Conde Nast publications are still on Flipboard, including Vanity Fair, Bon Appetit, and Glamour. Vanity Fair's ad inventory recently sold out, according to McCue -- still a rare occurrence on the app.
Assuming that most people take to aggregation apps (still a big assumption), there will still be the question of how far that will go toward solving the problems of the publishing industry. Flipboard claims 90 million users. Even if that's inflated (there's no indication of how many of those are active users, for example), there's little doubt as to the app's popularity. But there are also several other competing apps, like Google Currents and Pulse, to name just two. How that will affect the market is impossible to know at this point -- will publications stick with a whole bunch of them at once? Will readers? What will be the effect on ad rates if all these apps are competing to sell ads?
For Flipboard users, any loss of content is a bad thing, as Marshall himself acknowledged in his post. It's a truly elegant product. And it solves the problem of having to skip through a whole bunch of different websites or apps. It's like a not-ugly RSS reader with a user interface that beats just about anything on the web, and on most standalone apps. But none of that will mean anything if publishers feel they can't make enough money to keep the articles coming. McCue believes they eventually will -- but he hasn't proved it yet.
