VINCENZO … It was incredibly healing to go back to California, land I was born into, and spend two and a half months accompanying my father on his passage into the great mystery. As the eldest son, in the Italian tradition, it was my duty to do this. And it was a duty I welcomed as an honor. And a great learning. Vince's passing is the subject of this week's Talking Gourd. And his condition the day before he died follows in The Deep item directly below … But I have to say from the get-go that the American social safety net worked for my dad, a WWII veteran, in the Bay Area, and with a very good union health care plan with the National Association of Letter Carriers … Yolanda Betran of Community Services Agency got me connected, provided counseling and on the right track when I first came to town to provide home hospice care for my dad in Mountain View … Cedar Crest Nursing and Rehabilitation Center in Sunnyvale did a wonderful job getting my dad back on track to living at home, with my assistance, after a short bout at El Camino Hospital (where Dr. Mary Kornei kept a watchful eye on him for many years) … When I did enlist the aid of Pathways Hospice, a nonprofit home health and hospice group, I got incredible help from everyone in the organization, but especially Melinda Kotterman the nurse, Bonnie Shisler the social worker and Cathy Lynch the community relations coordinator (what a GREAT group of people!) … And finally, when care got beyond the capability of untrained me at home, and we had to find professional care, my family didn't have to spend vast sums (we don't have) on private rest homes and assisted care facilities. Instead, the Veteran Administration in Palo Alto was able to provide quality care, with nurses, aides, docs, and volunteers all taking the time to get to know patients and their families individually, in a lovely hospice unit with an aquarium and bird cage and visiting pets, and at no charge to my father who had served his country during war. Paperwork was minimal, and TLC was paramount, thanks to Sheila Kennedy and her excellent Unit 4-A staff (another GREAT group of folks!). Family was welcome to stay with loved ones around the clock. So, in the end I spent a two-day vigil at his bedside and had the privilege of being there, holding his arm, as spirit left his body, in the deep coma of the dying, when life is breath alone, and a heart that won't stop pumping.
THE DEEP … Barely breathing. Tubes in his nostrils bubbling oxygen through water into his lungs. Wind but no sails. His beard shaved. Teeth stowed. His mind's anchor lost to the typhoon in his brain. Eyes that stare but don't see. He is beyond recognition … His heart got a boost from the auxiliary motor of his pacemaker implant still pumping him up. Obedient to the blood it serves. Although the will to live had abandoned ship. He'd make little cries, like a long-necked cormorant. Involuntary. Hospice SOS. Dreaming harbor in a sea of white sheets … So he breathes, but rudderless. The morphine a wetsuit so the ocean chill of pain can't touch him. Breath for the sake of breath. Mechanical. About to be becalmed. He is, like us, waiting for it to stop, like it began. Deep in the mystery.
DREAM WORDS … I lived a kind of monastic life in Mountain View. Cut off from my family, my community, my colleagues, my garden, my home. And I paid a little more attention to myself, and my own moods, needs, experiences, even as I was paying attention to Grandpa (as my kids called him and my step-nieces and nephews) and gardens front and back at 298 Jessie Lane (including my Cloud Acre experimental spud patch this year) … I even found time to write down a few dreams. And in one dream I heard a word that I didn't recognize and I wanted to bring it back from the dream world into the waking world. So I did, although the force of bringing it back to the waking world interrupted a deliciously sensuous dream (tradeoffs). And I wrote the word(s) down as they sounded to me, shim poddered … Anyone out there have any idea what it might mean?
ORPHAN NUCLEAR WASTES … Last year the Department of Energy (DOE) started a multi-year process to determine how to dispose of low level radioactive wastes, or what is known in the regulatory world as Greater Than Class C (GTCC) wastes. Currently, they have no designated disposal sites or licensed methods. Class C or lower rad wastes are generally disposed of simply by covering them with a few feet of dirt in situ. GTCC wastes can contain 140 million curies of radioactivity, more than 10 times the radioactivity of the materials slated for disposal at the Waste Isolation Pilot Project salt cavern near Carlsbad, N.M. GTCC wastes come from commercial nuclear power plants; 110 million curies of the GTCC wastes result from "activated metals" in the 122 active and decommissioned plants in the U.S. For instance, metals in and around the reactors in nuclear power plants become intensely radioactive due to particle bombardment over the decades. By 2035, the DOE projects they will also have some 1,700 cubic meters of GTCC-like wastes containing 2.4 million curies from "sealed sources," consisting mostly of small sealed radioactive materials containers used in medicine, testing oil and gas pipelines and the like. "Other" sources (non-sealed) of GTCC-like radwaste are transuranic wastes, mostly coming from the only commercial reprocessing site in the nation – West Valley, Nev. And another more than half chunk of radwaste in all these categories comes from the Radioisotope Power Systems project, which provides electrical power supplies for space satellites and some weapons.

Liam began as a short form of William, but has long stood on its own. It is now one of the fastest-rising Irish names in the US, climbing 9 places in the last year to break into the Top 10 for the first time ever.
Irish-born actor Liam Neeson was instrumental in driving Liam up the charts, as was, to a lesser degree, former Oasis member Liam (born William) Gallagher. Celebrities who have chosen Liam for their sons include Tori Spelling, Calista Flockhart, Rod Stewart, Kevin Costner and Craig Ferguson.
Internationally, Liam is enjoying great popularity not only in the U.S. and Ireland (where it's Number 15), but Scotland and Sweden (Number 9) and Australia (14).
Jaunty and richly textured, Liam is sure to increase even further in popularity.

OK, this isn't exactly local, but who doesn't want to know when Santa's arriving? At least to watch out for those speeding reindeer!
We received this missive from North American Aerospace Defense Command at Peterson Air Force Base, Colo., informing us that they were on the job — to track Santa's flight path and warn off 747s. Some may say it's a trivial waste of taxpayer money, but it must be nice for them to worry about jolly overweight elves rather than ICBMs for a change. (And it's a great cover for sweeping for UFOs and North Koreans.) But almost all of this is done by volunteers

I'm working on a CS extension project, and I'd like to add unit testing to the project. I see that the extension project doesn't support FlexUnit. Is there a way to add unit testing to a extension project?
You can certainly use FlexUnit. Add the libraries to your project and test away.
What we normally do, depending on the overall project requirements, is put as much of the core/logic as we can in a library. Then we write both an Air app and an Extension that are intended to execute unit tests against that library. The Air app tests the functionality that is not dependent on a host application (PS, AI, ID...).
Depending on your project, you may or may not be able to use an Air app for testing (CSXS calls are not supported from Air).
Hello Bob.
Is it planned to handle Creative Suite Extension project in FlexUnit?
Another option is to abstract the API objects into interfaces, only adding the functionality you need, and mocking those with something like mockolate to do your tests. It doesn't work for everything, but it covers a lot more than the CSEB independent stuff.
As an example, I have IApplication, with an activeDocument getter that returns IDocument. The implementations are handled by a service locator, so my extension uses actual API objects, and my test project uses mocks - easy!

ALBANY, Ga. — An former Albany woman who had just moved to a new job in Tennessee was killed in the airplane crash which occurred Wednesday near the Thomson-McDuffie County Airport.
Tiffany Porter, 28, was among the victims identified by authorities.
The NTSB conducted its on-site investigation Friday and reported that the both pilots survived the crash. All five of the fatalities were passengers, including Porter.
Investigators say they do not know if the plane touched down briefly before the crash. Media reports said the black box recorder has not been found.
Porter had recently left her job at Albany Vascular Center and had been associated with Vein Guys Clinic in Tennessee for just three days. The Alabama native was traveling on the airplane that was reportedly owned by the clinic which she just joined.
Porter was hired by the Nashville, Tenn., company as an ultrasound technologist and was in the middle of training.
A spokesperson for Vein Guys said Porter apparently was moving to Nashville to be closer to her boyfriend. They said she is survived by her sister, mother and father.

The New Jersey Devils acquired center Jason Arnott from the Nashville Predators today, in exchange for prospect Matt Halischuk and a 2011 2nd round draft pick.
The Devils get: a 35-year-old center with one year left on his current contract. He is set to earn $4.5 million in 2010-11. Arnott has been Nashville's captain for the past few seasons, and he will slide in behind Travis Zajac on New Jersey's second line. He has played over 70 games only once in the past four seasons, though. He finished 2009-10 with 19 goals and 46 points in 63 games.
The Predators get: a solid two-way prospect in Halischuk. He projects as a character player at the NHL level.
Fantasy Players Impacted: This deal ends any chance of Ilya Kovalchuk returning to New Jersey. It probably bumps down either Jamie Langenbrunner or Brian Rolston to the third line as well. Arnott had fantastic chemistry with Patrik Elias and Petr Sykora back when the Devils won the Stanley Cup in 2000, but that was over 10 years ago. Still, I'd expect him to play with Elias and Rolston or Langenbrunner (Sykora is a free agent as well...).
On Nashville's side, something obviously has to give. Is Colin Wilson ready to take over as the number one center? He played a lot at wing last year, but he will most likely make the move back to the middle for 2010-11. This also opens up a spot for Cal O'Reilly in the top six (assuming Nashville stands pat with their current center group, which isn't likely).
David Legwand is a third line center paid like a second line center, and this deal changes nothing with him. The Predators are currently at about $39 million in committed cap space with 17 contracts. Lots of room to make moves, even with their internal budget.
Players this deal helps, in order:
1. Colin Wilson
2. Patrik Elias
3. Cal O'Reilly
Players this deal hurts, in order:
1. Dainius Zubrus
2. Jamie Langenbrunner

Flora is a minimalistic but very powerful NoSQL database. It is easy to understand with data readable by both humans and machines, schemaless, Lua-scriptable, remotely accessible through TCP, and portable. It is especially suited for A. I. tasks, and a longer-term goal is support for "natural language" queries.
Valentina Studio is a GUI manager for local files of Valentina DB, SQLite, MySQL, PostgreSQL, and Valentina DB Server. It can edit and browse schemas and records, do SQL queries using a smart SQL editor with autocompletion, export/import into different formats, do SQL dumps, and draw diagrams using reverse engineering.
Bibfilex is software to create and manage archives of bibliographical items (books, articles, etc.) according to Biblatex structure and rules. It is far less advanced than other bibliographic managers like JabRef, and allows only a few customizations. Its strength is speed and lightness, especially when used with many items. It uses SQLite as a database. It can store the items according to each of the entry types described in the Biblatex manual (book, article, etc.), import the content of a file in Biblatex format (like a JabRef database, a Mendeley BibTex exported file, or a Google Books BibTex downloaded file), export data to a Biblatex file (like a JabRef database), locate an item just typing its author name, title, etc. filter the items by selecting a keyword in a list, filter the items according to three different conditions (or to manually modify the SQL statement of the filter to make it more suitable or complex) or according to the \cite commands contained within a Latex document, associate various attachments (files of every kind) with each item, activate autocompletion of data in each field with "Ctrl + Space", automatically create unique BibTex keys according to a pattern defined by the user, and specify the fields (columns) shown in the grid view of the data. It is also possible to replace the \cite and \printbibliography commands in a Latex document with extended citations and bibliography, which are composed according to a user-defined pattern, to export the Latex file in other formats more easily.
epers stands for "Erlang persistence". As the name suggests, it tries to make it easy to use databases in Erlang programs, to make the language a little more agile, and (humbly) offer a nice adapter for several databases, hiding their implementation details (and the API of the library/framework/driver used to communicate with them). To achieve this, it aims to offer a somewhat consistent API to define and work with your model, while at the same not coupling your code too tightly to it.

Is Writing Style, Grammar, and Punctuation Important?
(Hosted by ttp://btt2.wordpress.com ))
This week's question asks:
In honor of National Grammar Day … it IS "March Fourth" after all … do you have any grammar books? Punctuation? Writing guidelines? Style books?
More importantly, have you read them?
How do you feel about grammar in general? Important? Vital? Unnecessary? Fussy?
Because I used to be a copyeditor and proofreader, so I had many writing style and grammar books. There are three guides that I still have -- The Elements of Style by Strunk and White (both the regular and illustrated edition) and The Chicago Manual of Style.
When I write formal proposals and business correspondence, I am fussy about writng, style, and punctuation. Personal writing (like this) -- not so much!
My favorite punctuation is the em dash! I find it hard to use sometimes when typing on the computer -- easier to use two hypens.
I love receiving ARCs to see how much red pen I can use! Interesting enough, some publishers are better at editing that others. Some ARCs turned out very "bloody!"
What do you say about writing style, grammar, and punctuation? With all the texting going on, does it matter anymore?
(Remember -- this is personal writing. No lectures, please!)
I am not one to be fretting
I am not one to be fretting over anyones grammar. Here's mine.

ARP Neighbor Cache Fingerprinter is a tool that provides a mechanism for remote operating system detection by extrapolating characteristics of the target system's underlying neighbor cache and general ARP behavior. Given the non-existence of any standard specification for how the neighbor cache should behave, several differences in network stack implementations can be used for unique identification. The main disadvantage of this tool versus traditional fingerprinting is that because it's based on a Layer 2 protocol instead of a Layer 3 protocol, the target machine that is being tested must reside on the same Ethernet broadcast domain (usually the same physical network).
Toolsverse ETL Framework is a standalone Extract Transform Load engine. It is fast and scalable, uses target database features to do transformations and loads, and offers manual and automatic data mapping, data streaming, bulk data loads, data quality features using SQL, JavaScript, and regex, and data transformations.

OnPosix is a tiny library to abstract POSIX mechanisms to C++ developers. Most features offered by this library can be found either inside the Boost library or in a library compliant with the C++11 standard. Unfortunately, however, for some embedded Linux devices, these libraries cannot represent viable solutions, due to the lack of memory space (for the Boost libraries) and the lack of a new C++ compiler (e.g., on Xilinx MicroBlaze). On these platforms, the OnPosix library represents a good and cheap solution to have object-oriented POSIX mechanisms. The library offers support for threads, mutual exclusion, sockets, logging, timing, etc.
Slim HTML5 Audio jQuery Plugin is a very simple jQuery plugin to embed an audio player. It can insert HTML to play a given audio file using the HTML5 audio tag. It also inserts the embed container tab as fallback when the audio tag is not supported by the Web browser (e.g., IE7 and 8).
cQRCode is a class that generates QR code images in GIF, JPEG, and PNG formats. It takes a string of information to encode and can either serve the image with the current script output or save it to a file. The size of matrix points and the error correction level parameters are configurable.
cSpeedometer is a class that renders a speed meter as an image or using the HTML5 canvas. It generates round speed meters with a pointer indicating current speed, and configurable colored ranges. Images can be saved as JPEG, PNG, and GIF, or as HTML5 with JavaScript code that renders the image.

On 1 March 1905 N Division was established to operate in the Athabasca District (RNWMP, Annual Report, 1905, pp. 27-30). The beginning of this division coincided with the establishment of the Peace River-Yukon Trail. From its base in Lesser Slave Lake, the division soon became responsible for police administration in the North. The division moved to Athabasca in 1908 and then to Peace River in 1916. The designation was not used in 1919 and the following year it was assigned to Ottawa. In 1987 the designation was discontinued. RG18 General Inventory

Initially Hacienda Manteles near Baños, Ecuador offered 10 rooms that were all original to the main hacienda. These quarters were first developed into guest rooms in 1992 and were again remodeled and refurbished in 2001. In 2006, 6 more rooms were developed at the hacienda to accommodate the increasing demand. We now offer 16 wonderfully decorated and cosy rooms to make our guests feel at home.
Main house - La Casa de la Nona
Room 1 ● Room 2 ● Room 3 ● Room 4 ● Room 5 ● Room 6 ● Room 7 ● Room 8
Family House
This house was built in 1995 originally as a home for a Canadian lady who fell in love with Hacienda Manteles. She lived in this private home for some years, then in 1999 the house was remodeled to include 4 guest rooms and a central living room with fireplace. Each room has a private en suite bathroom and all rooms share the lounge area, perfect for those who want to enjoy a cup of tea or coffee or maybe even a glass of wine while reading in front of the fireplace. The Family House is surrounded by the gardens of the Hacienda and offers outside seating areas for those who love the outdoors.
Room 9 ● Room 10 ● Room 11 ● Room 12
La Queseria
Room 14 ● Room 15 ● Room 16 ● Room 17
Note: Children (4-10 years old) who are sharing the room with their parents do not have to pay for accommodation. They will only have to pay for breakfast, dinner and extras.

Working With Canadian Merchant Partners
Outside of search engine marketing, affiliate networks and display media networks, Canadian merchants have very few online channels focused on generating consumer demand for their products and services.
SHOP.CA provides a selling platform for merchants who ship from Canada and is dedicated to helping them compete in a very dynamic retail environment. On SHOP.CA, merchants selling within the marketplace won't compete for sales with SHOP.CA. Unlike most marketplaces we have established a Marketplace that empowers small, medium and large-sized merchants wanting to use the Internet as a sales channel. Launched in July 2012, SHOP.CA has become major new online channel for merchants to connect and sell to Canadian consumers. Relationships are core to our success, and with that, each merchant partner is assigned an ecommerce consultant and will be regularly engaged for promotions and ways to improve their store within SHOP.CA.
SHOP.CA's Marketplace as a Service (MaaS) platform makes it easy for merchants to integrate and maintain a store, while our universal free shipping and returns policy, social loyalty network, vast selection across one cart and one account, along with our Canadian powered service team make it fun for consumers to SHOP HAPPY on SHOP.CA.

Organizing a kite flying event
Re: Organizing a kite flying event
Congratulations on a successful first event. Your 3-day will be even bigger.
The big kites and the ground bouncers (Bols and such) don't stay up all the time. Someone has to keep a close eye on them at all times that they are in the air. Someone should be near the anchor at all times and know how to manage big kites. You have to take them down at night.
Re: Organizing a kite flying event
I have Kite Boarders coming as well as Kite Flyers! Not only will we fly kites off the beach and breakwalls but on a large flying field about a block away. I will be hosting a corn roast, concert in the evening, and dogs on the grill during the day for participants! This is our first event and I am open to all suggestions. Please check out www.portsanilac.net! I am looking forward to hosting this event. Not only is there a beach and play ground for the kids but camping across from the lighthouse and a paved lot for R.V.'s . Please register. Susan Gill

Re: Organizing a kite flying event
You need to get www.portsanilac.net to cover your event. I searched for "kite" and did not see anything.
Re: Organizing a kite flying event
The mega bol and other spinning items have an added risk since they attract kids and if you get too close you can get hurt by the lines. They are great for attracting attention but you MUST have them supervised at all times. I have a general rule that you can approach the bol and some of the other large kites from the rear or side as long as you stay behind the bridles and of course depending on the wind. I let them take a picture then move away. I find that I tell them its friendly but he can bite your ear off if you get too close. Then I tell dad that the rope burn from the lines can severly hurt you so make sure you stay away from them. Most of the time its a quick picture then they move on. If they linger I ask them to step back and of course its a good idea to have an area roped off to control access. When the crowd gets bigger since I cant control a mob no one is allowed to go near the kites etc. Having a safe day is the number one priority.

Re: Organizing a kite flying event
I'm a little late signing in on this one but I have to second what Capt-Richard suggested. I build and "fly" a lot of ground dispaly stuff, inclucing some fairly large rotors. The movement makes them real kid magnets. I can tell you this for sure. You can't count on the parents to supervise properly. You have to attend to your gear at all times.
To all of you who are actively promoting kiting events in your area.....good job and good luck!!!!

TELLURIDE – Janet Jacobs, a longtime resident of Mancos and Telluride, Colo. died on Wednesday, Nov. 6, after a long fight with thyroid cancer. She was 66 years old.
In her early life in New York, Janet was actively engaged in politics and business. A dedicated supporter of children and women's causes, she served on the board of the Ms. Foundation for Women, was active in Outward Bound, and enthusiastically encouraged others to support the arts for children. In recent years she headed her own real property business.
An avid skier, Janet and her family became second homeowners in Telluride in 1983 and she became a full time resident in 1995. In addition to skiing, her passions were the water, traveling, reading, and her family and friends.
She was a truly an amazing woman who filled the lives of those around her with love and fun. She was the best mother and grandmother ever.
Janet is survived by her partner Shelley Earl, her son Rick Jacobs and his fiancé Maki Koike her daughter and son-in-law Wendy Jacobs Hampton and Zachary Hampton, and her granddaughters Breton and Zoe.
A memorial celebration will be held at the Sheridan Opera House in Telluride starting at 4 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 16. The family has requested that children be left at home for the celebration. For those of you who did not know Janet but want to support the family please come to the Steaming Bean at 8 p.m.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to The Painted Turtle Studio in Mancos. (http://www.paintedturtlestudio.org/).

New York News
Sugary drink ban halted in New York City
NEW YORK (WABC) -- In a major defeat for New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, a state judge has dismissed the city's planned ban on sugary drinks as illegal.
The ban was scheduled to take effect on Tuesday.
In the decision, the judge wrote that Bloomberg's sugary drink regulations are "fraught with arbitrary and capricious consequences. The simple reading of the rule leads to the earlier acknowledged uneven enforcement even within a particular city block, much less the city as a whole."
Judge Milton Tingling added that the ban raised concerns because it would apply "to some but not all food establishments in the city, (and) it excludes other beverages that have significantly higher concentration of sugar sweeteners and / or calories on suspect grounds..."
Shortly after the ruling, Mayor Bloomberg's office tweeted, " We plan to appeal the sugary drinks decision as soon as possible and are confident the measure will ultimately be upheld."
The judge also questioned the health department's authority to issue the "portion cap rule."
"The court expressed concern about the administrative agency having a virtually limitless authority," he wrote. "The Portion Cap Rule, if upheld, would create an administrative Leviathan and violate the separation of powers doctrine. The Rule would not only violate the separation of powers doctrine, it would eviscerate it. Such an evisceration has the potential to be more troubling than sugar sweetened beverages."
During a press conference Monday evening, Mayor Bloomberg said, "We believe it's reasonable to draw a line, and it's responsible to draw a line right now. With so many people contracting diabetes and heart disease, with so many children who are overweight and obese, with so many poor neighborhoods suffering the worst of this epidemic, we believe it is reasonable and responsible to draw a line, and that is what the Board of Health has done. As a matter of fact, it would be irresponsible not to try to do everything we can to save lives."
The city Board of Health approved the measure in September, following on other efforts by the Bloomberg administration to improve New Yorkers' eating habits, from compelling chain restaurants to post calorie counts on their menus to barring artificial trans fats in restaurant food to prodding food manufacturers to use less salt.
"We are confident the Board of Health's decision will ultimately be upheld," said Michael A. Cardozo, the city's corporation counsel.
The city had said that while restaurant inspectors would start enforcing the soda size rule in March, they wouldn't seek fines - $200 for a violation - until June.
Monday's ruling came as barbecue joints, coffee counters and bottle-service nightclubs were preparing for the clampdown. Some restaurants ordered smaller glasses. Dunkin' Donuts shops told customers they'll have to sweeten and flavor their own coffee. Coca-Cola had printed posters explaining the new rules.
"The restaurant industry is happy and vindicated by the decision today, which not only overturned the ban but emphatically stated our main arguments that the ban was arbitrary and capacious and a broad overreach of power by the Board of Health. We hope we can put this behind us and focus on productive measures to fight obesity," Andrew Moesel of New York State Restaurant Association said in a written statement.
City officials had described the ban as a pioneering, practical step to staunch an obesity rate that has risen from 18 to 24 percent in a decade among adult New Yorkers. Health officials say sugar-filled drinks bear much of the blame because they carry hundreds of calories - a 32-ounce soda has more than a typical fast-food cheeseburger - without making people feel full.
The city "has the ability to do this and the obligation to try to help," the plan's chief cheerleader, Mayor Michael Bloomberg, said last month.
Critics say the regulation would not make a meaningful difference in diets but will unfairly hurt some businesses while sparing others. A customer who can't get a 20-ounce Coke at a sandwich shop could still buy a Big Gulp at a 7-Eleven, for instance, since many convenience stores and supermarkets are beyond the city's regulatory reach.
New Yorkers have been divided on the proposed restrictions. A Quinnipiac University poll released last week found 51 percent opposed it, while 46 percent approved.

From Wikiquote
(Redirected from Dadaism)
Dada (or Dadaism) is a cultural movement involving visual arts, literature (poetry, art manifestos, art theory), theater, and graphic design, and concentrated its anti war politic through a rejection of the prevailing standards in art through anti-art cultural works. The movement that began in neutral Zürich, Switzerland, during World War I and peaked from 1916 to 1920.

- Dada exhibition. Another one! What's the matter with everyone wanting to make a museum piece out of Dada? Dada was a bomb... can you imagine anyone, around half a century after a bomb explodes, wanting to collect the pieces, sticking it together and displaying it?
- Max Ernst quoted in C.W.E. Bigsby, Dada and Surrealism, ch. 1 (1972)
- "What attracted me to Dadaism was its radicalism: Dadaism was not merely conceived as a new avant-garde artistic tendency; rather, it stood for an outlook on life which expressed a tendency towards total liberation, conjoined with the upsetting of all logic, ethic and aesthetic categories, in the most paradoxical and baffling ways. Having known 'the thrill of awakening', Dadaists proclaimed a 'harsh necessity free from all disciplines or morals', the 'identity between order and disorder, between I and non-I, between affirmation and negation as the radiance of an absolute art', and an 'active kind of simplicity, the incapability of distinguishing any degrees of clarity'. 'What is divine within us' — Tristan Tzara proclaimed — 'is the awakening of an anti-human action.'
- Julius Evola, The Path of Cinnabar: An Intellectual Autobiography (1963), p. 19
- Dada hurts. Dada does not jest, for the reason that it was experienced by revolutionary men and not by philistines who demand that art be a decoration for the mendacity of their own emotions... I am firmly convinced that all art will become dadaistic in the course of time, because from Dada proceeds the perpetual urge for its renovation.
- Richard Huelsenbeck, Trans. in The Dada Painters and Poets: An Anthology, ed. Robert Motherwell (1951). "Dada Lives," Transition no. 25 (Autumn 1936)
- We, the founders of Dada-movement try to give time its own reflection in the mirror.
- Kurt Schwitters (1923) in first edition of journal Merz
- Every product of disgust capable of becoming a negation of the family is Dada; a protest with the fists of its whole being engaged in destructive action: Dada; knowledge of all the means rejected up until now by the shamefaced sex of comfortable compromise and good manners: Dada; abolition of logic, which is the dance of those impotent to create: Dada; of every social hierarchy and equation set up for the sake of values by our valets: Dada; every object, all objects, sentiments, obscurities, apparitions and the precise clash of parallel lines are weapons for the fight: Dada; abolition of memory: Dada; abolition of archaeology: Dada; abolition of prophets: Dada; abolition of the future: Dada; absolute and unquestionable faith in every god that is the immediate product of spontaneity: Dada; elegant and unprejudiced leap from a harmony to the other sphere; trajectory of a word tossed like a screeching phonograph record; to respect all individuals in their folly of the moment: whether it be serious, fearful, timid, ardent, vigorous, determined, enthusiastic; to divest one's church of every useless cumbersome accessory; to spit out disagreeable or amorous ideas like a luminous waterfall, or coddle them - with the extreme satisfaction that it doesn't matter in the least - with the same intensity in the thicket of one's soul - pure of insects for blood well-born, and gilded with bodies of archangels. Freedom: Dada Dada Dada, a roaring of tense colours, and interlacing of opposites and of all contradictions, grotesques, inconsistencies: LIFE.
- Tristan Tzara (1918) Dada Manifesto
- Dada doubts everything. Dada is an armadillo. Everything is Dada, too. Beware of Dada. Anti-dadaism is a disease: selfkleptomania, man's normal condition, is Dada. But the real dadas are against Dada.
- Tristan Tzara, repr. In The Dada Painters and Poets, ed. Robert Motherwell (1951). "Dada Manifesto on Feeble Love and Bitter Love," sct. 7, La Vie des Lettres, no. 4, Paris (1921)

Thursday morning, the Marine Corps Exchange (MCX), which serves thousands of active duty and retired military personnel in the region, will reopen. The renovations to the MCX cost $6.4-million. Miss Georgia and local civic leaders are scheduled to be in attendance at that ceremony.
On Friday afternoon, the base bowling alley,, renovated at a cost of $400,000, will reopen.
Base officials say each of the projects were funded with money from non-appropriated funds and no tax dollars were used.

If you are a new CISO or new to the higher education community, we recommend checking out the Toolkit for New CISOs, a resource developed by members of the Higher Education Information Security Council.
Information Security Guide: Effective Practices and Solutions for Higher Education
The Information Security Guide: Effective Practices and Solutions for Higher Education is now available in wiki format. This resource provides practical approaches to preventing, detecting, and responding to security problems in a wide range of higher education environments. This online service is designed with colleges and universities in mind, balancing our need for security with the need for an open, collaborative networking environment. Also, because one of the overarching concerns in college and university information technology (IT) departments is a lack of resources, an effort is made to provide low-cost solutions. The target audiences are those responsible for information security in colleges and universities and information technology staff who implement and manage security measures. Recognizing that many institutions have initiated or are in the process of developing IT security programs and policies, an effort is made throughout this resource to present practices that are useful at each stage of the developmental process.
As a community-driven, community-serving project, it is important for this initiative to incorporate experiences and perspectives from many different institutions. To contribute case studies that have been effective in your institution, please contact email@example.com.

'Sesame Street' nears 1 billion views on YouTubeThe children's program is closing in on the kind of rarified digital milestone usually reserved for the likes of pop stars and cat videos. "Sesame Street" will soon pass 1 billion views on YouTube and it's celebrating the mark with a campaign to put itself over the hump.
By: Associated Press , INFORUM
NEW YORK — Nearing 1 billion views on YouTube, "Sesame Street" is headed for Justin Bieber territory.
The children's program is closing in on the kind of rarified digital milestone usually reserved for the likes of pop stars and cat videos. "Sesame Street" will soon pass 1 billion views on YouTube and it's celebrating the mark with a campaign to put itself over the hump.
"Sesame Street" on Thursday will post a video featuring the character Telly Monster, urging viewers to click the show past the final 20 million views and unlock a "top secret video." Naturally, for the nonprofit children's series, it's a teaching moment, too. Don't be surprised if Count von Count shows up to ponder such a big number.
For "Sesame Street," the milestone — a first on YouTube for a nonprofit or U.S. children's media outlet — reflects the increasingly multimedia nature of kid entertainment. Big Bird and Oscar the Grouch are now about as likely to be watched on an iPad, phone or laptop as they are on PBS.
"We have this theory that if we get content on multiple platforms and devices, it gives kids and families a chance to reinforce and experience the curriculum multiple times," says Terry Fitzpatrick, executive vice president of content and distribution for Sesame Workshop, who emphasizes videos are best co-viewed with child and parent. "It blows me away to think about how popular and strong a platform (YouTube) has become for us."
"Sesame Street," a mainstay on PBS since 1970, launched its YouTube channel in 2006, but has continually expanded its mindfulness of online and mobile viewers.
Sesame Workshop last year integrated its digital media group into its TV production, so that digital and interactive elements are considered from the start of an idea. Its most popular video is "Elmo's Song," which has been watched nearly 86 million times since being uploaded in 2009. More recently, another PBS hit, "Downton Abbey," was parodied in "Upside Downton Abbey," a video where British muppets have trouble drinking tea and eating crumpets because, well, they're upside down.
Caitlin Hendrickson, strategic partner manager for YouTube's educational realm, YouTube EDU, says that education is one of the fastest growing content categories on the Google Inc.-owned site. "Sesame Street" reaching 1 billion views, she said in a statement, "is proof of their outstanding leadership in this space and their creative use of YouTube."

'Glee' star Jane Lynch to host EmmysNEW YORK — Get out the megaphone: ''Glee'' star Jane Lynch will be hosting the Emmy Awards. The Academy of Television Arts & Sciences announced Thursday that Lynch will host ''The 63rd Primetime Emmy Awards'' honoring excellence in prime-time TV. The ceremony will be held at Los Angeles' Nokia Theatre and will air Sept. 18 on Fox. Lynch stars as a megaphone-wielding cheerleading coach who bullies students on the hit Fox series about a high school glee club. The actress said she's ''tickled pink'' to be chosen as Emmy host. Kid Rock to perform in hometown DETROIT — Kid Rock stormed a Detroit riverfront beach with friends by paddleboard Thursday to announce a hometown concert at the city's baseball park this summer. Rock, Detroit Red Wings captain Nicklas Lidstrom and retired Red Wings defenseman Chris Chelios used paddleboards to cross the Detroit River to Belle Isle. A bare-footed Rock then strolled to a beachfront microphone and lectern and said during a news conference that he'd be playing Comerica Park Aug. 12 with opening act Sammy Hagar and the Wabos. The hit-making rocker said he decided to combine both activities after Chelios called him a day earlier and asked if he wanted to go paddleboarding Clarice Taylor of 'Cosby Show'dies at age 93 NEW YORK — Clarice Taylor, the actress and comedian best known for playing grandmothers on ''The Cosby Show'' and ''Sesame Street,'' has died at the age of 93. Taylor died of congestive heart failure in her home in Englewood, N.J., on Monday, said her son, William Taylor. During a career that spanned five decades, Taylor performed on radio and TV, in film and on stage, including in the original Broadway cast of the musical ''The Wiz.'' — From wire reports

You want good dice?.. you have to give money to the owner so he can rip off all the low ranks and non investors
There's a real problem with your beautiful dice system when someone can take out 11 troops with 11 troops then move on with the 6 they had left and take out 6 more terts without losing a single fucking troop.
this site will never change simply because the investors will pull their money out of here...
you think they keep rank and win all the time cus there dice suck?.. f*ck NO! notice any mods losing rank?.. they're immune from losing as a favor for being a mod
