NPR's 13.7: Cosmos and Culture blog published a Q+A between Jeff VanderMeer and recent PEN/Faulkner award–winning author Karen Joy Fowler that started out as an innocent-enough conversation about animal consciousness, and evolved into a discussion of turkey-killing machines, domestic terrorism, the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, and other things that are "scary as shit."
Good news from lists past and future: last week, Jeff VanderMeer's Authority landed on EW's Must List alongside the "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D" ("the non-superheroes superhero series") finale and Spike Jonze's "Her," and on Sunday the Southern Reach Trilogy will make its debut on the New York Times bestseller list.
"No one will pay you to write your first book," Catherine Lacey's professor told her in grad school; you have to find a way to pay yourself.
One way to do that, as Catherine writes in an article for the New York Times, is to form a worker co-op like 3B, the bed & breakfast she helped start in 2010. Together, she and six housemates purged rooms full of garbage, "uncovered dubious plumbing maneuvers and ludicrous electrical work," and repainted walls from a "color I can describe only as 'scab.'" It sounds pretty fun, to be honest.
Now, the "nascent fiction-thing [she] wasn't yet calling a novel" when she started 3B is an honest-to-goodness book called Nobody Is Ever Missing, which we're very proud to be publishing in July.
The only thing better than this animated cover of Acceptance was Jeff VanderMeer's reaction to it when he visited our offices a couple weeks ago: pure, unadulterated, boyish delight.
(It really seemed to be that poor mouse that gave him the giggles.)
But as far as the internet is concerned, BuzzFeed had the exclusive first look, which they featured today along with Lincoln Michel's interview with Jeff.
We would never, ever play favorites, but reliable sources tell us that last night's party with Jeff VanderMeer, Starlee Kine, and Future of What was the best Originals Series event ever. Click through for photos, and keep an eye on the site for upcoming events.
The Originals Series returns on Tuesday, 2/25, to celebrate Annihilation, the first book in Jeff VanderMeer's Southern Reach Trilogy, which we'll be releasing over the course of 2014. We hope you'll join us for a night of free drinks, conversation hosted by "This American Life" contributor Starlee Kine, and a musical performance by Future of What. Space is limited so YOU MUST RSVP!

I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (New York, NY) in January 2017.
Was very difficult and long, but worth it! They asked a lot of skill and experience questions. Defintiely research before. I would look up all the skills and memorize those because that is what they want and are looking for. I think it is a great expereince to go through this interview.
Interview Questions
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Microsoft (Redmond, WA) in November 2016.
I got initially contacted through linkedin by a third party recruiter and scheduled a phone screen and went well. After two or three weeks I was scheduled to speak with the hiring manager, it was a skype interview and we had a nice conversation, the questions were not too difficult and I was quite excited about the role. The next morning I got invited for an onsite interview and I was scheduled to fly to Redmond in about 3 weeks, all the travel logistics were scheduled by Microsoft very efficiently. I prepared for these interviews very well (so I thought) by reading hundreds of blogs, doing more research on the products, coming up with questions, what to wear (don't wear suit! Business casual is better) and everything you can imagine about interview preparation for your dream job.
I flew the night before and got ready for my 3 scheduled interviews (I was emailed the list of interviewers the night before). The three interviews including lunch went well enough apparently and I was added two more, which according to the internet is a great sign. I completed the full loop and was sent home after 5 interviews and 1 conversation with HR, I felt pretty confident at the end of the day. Flew back home and this is where it got frustrated.
Some people hear about the interview outcome the very next day, I initially sent out an email about two weeks after the onsite and was told to wait, so I did, for 4 months and got rejected in the end. The whole process took half a year to get a pass so it is hard to not feel disappointed. All the interviewers were top notch though and I can say they have been some of the best interviews I have ever had. I wish you all the best of luck but I do believe HR should be more upfront on deadlines and expectations.
Interview Questions
The process took a week. I interviewed at Microsoft (Seattle, WA) in April 2011.
phone interview to know background and technical details was most important

Not related to any specific technology. mostly about problem solving, programming and testing.
Interview Questions
I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Microsoft (Seattle, WA) in April 2010.
Easy programming question, but wasn't ready for the question at hand and was out of practice. Interviewer was fakely interested in what I had to say. Overall a pretty bad interview. Culture seemed very impersonal and superficial. The process of receiving an interview was very informal. Generally speaking, it seems really random who got through and who didn't. I was hoping for the program manager position and got programming questions, whereas another friend didn't get any. Who you get interviewed by is a very determining factor.

I applied through college or university. The process took 3+ months. I interviewed at Microsoft (Redmond, WA) in December 2009.
I provided my resume to my university's recruiter. I had worked with her in the past for a Microsoft sponsored student event, so she knew me.
A few weeks later Microsoft was conducting interviews on my school campus and invited me for what they call "oncampus interviews." This takes the place of a phone screening. Before the interview I fill out a form stating what positions I'm interested in: SDET, SDE, or PM. On the day of the interview you are interviewed by a single person, who asks general questions, and then questions more specific to your preferred area.
If you pass this phase you're invited to an interview at Microsoft, and you meet with multiple people, generally interviewed by two teams. You go to the office of the person interviewing you, and have to answer technical questions and do whiteboard programing. At each stage the interviewer can choose to send you home, but if they don't you're eventually interviewed by the fifth and final person, the hiring manager who has final say in whether you get an offer or not.
It took several months before my last interview before I heard that I was going to be getting an offer. This was unusual compared to my friends experiences.
Interview Questions
I did not attempted to negotiate.
The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Microsoft (Redmond, WA) in November 2009.
Too slow, moves so slow that you can just keep waiting. Plus you meet rude people who are more interested in finding personality fits than work fits.
Interview Questions
The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Microsoft (Redmond, WA) in May 2009.
Had a phone interview... asked hypothetical questions and some about my current job, challenges, and qualifications for a future position. Found it to be an easy phone interview but did not get an offer. Technical qualifications were addressed and evaluated.
Interview Questions
I applied online. The process took 4+ months. I interviewed at Microsoft (Redmond, WA) in April 2008.
Resume being selected for the interview is the harder part in my opinion.
Interviews are not so hard compared to Other equally popular companies.
Most of the questions would be past interview questions found on internet.
Even if you know answer right away , trying to deduce the procedure infront of the interviewer would be helpful in gaining a good impression.
Roughly about 1 in 5 are selected from interviews.
So if 20 guys are interviewed on your day. you would need to be atleast 4th best.
Interview Questions
Cannot negotiate most of the time. Unless you are a top executive, VP and above.

Clermont fans are planning to remember Anthony Foley in a very classy way this weekend
Clermont and Munster have enjoyed some seismic battles over the years but the Yellow Army are putting aside the teams' sporting differences this weekend to pay tribute to the late, great Anthony Foley.
Just as Munster are planning to remember their legendary back row and former head coach ahead of their Champions Cup tie, Clermont fans are also urging their clan to do the same.
Video: Everyone is talking about this poignant and powerful tribute to Munster and Ireland legend Anthony Foley
The Yellow Army supporters group posted a photo titled 'The Yellow Army and The Red Army' on Facebook, accompanied by a plea for fans to wear Munster scarves or flags for Clermont's European clash with Bordeaux this Saturday.
It has been touching to see the entire world of rugby express such nice sentiments about Foley this week, and Clermont fans' classy tribute this Saturday will be another memorable moment in an emotional week.

Cadbury chocolates are leaving a sour taste in the mouths of many Christians who have noticed a very important word missing from the company's packaging — Easter.
For example, Cadbury's "Easter Egg Trail Pack" is now simply labeled the "Egg Hunt Pack."
"It is a vanishing act worthy of the Easter bunny himself and just as mysterious," noted John Bingham, religious affairs editor of The Telegraph. "Easter — the most important Christian festival of the year, celebrated by well over two billion people around the world — appears to be quietly disappearing: at least when it comes to eggs."
Advertisement - story continues below
Cadbury insisted there is no attempt to remove the word "Easter."
"Most of our Easter eggs don't say Easter or egg on the front as we don't feel the need to tell people this – it is very obvious through the packaging that it is an Easter egg," said a company spokesperson.
TRENDING: Rand Paul's Wife Breaks Silence on Husband's Attack: 'This Was Not A Scuffle'
Not everyone agrees.
"It's deeply disappointing and shameful that some of the biggest companies (they include Cadbury and Nestle) are censoring the countries' old tradition," said David Marshall, CEO of the Meaningful Chocolate Co., which makes no bones about the religious nature of its products. "It shows they're insensitive and uncomfortable with the Christian faith."

"More than 80 million chocolate Easter eggs are sold very year in the U.K., but over the past five years some manufacturers have either removed the word 'Easter' from their boxes, calling them just chocolate eggs, or reduced the word in size and put it on the back of the box," he said.

No fewer than 75 passengers of Arik airline were on Sunday stranded at the IIorin International Airport following non-availability of an aircraft to convey them to Abuja.
Some of the passengers have passed a night at the Airport waiting for an aircraft.
All the 75 passengers, who have paid for the flight since Saturday, were expected to be transported since noon on Saturday, but the aircraft did not show up at the Airport till about one o clock on Sunday.
The Manager of the Arik airline at the IIorin International Airport, Mr Damilola Oluwajana, who spoke with NAN on Sunday confirmed that 75 Arik airline passengers were actually stranded at the Airport.
He said they were supposed to be transported to Abuja since Saturday but unable to make it due to what he described as some logistics problems.
The Manager said he had sent text messages to all the passengers of cancellation of a flight scheduled for midday of Sunday, which he said many of them did not receive.
He said some of the passengers were unable to receive the texts because they purchased their tickets from agents who do not know their identity.
Oluwajana, however, declined to comment on the new schedule for the flight.
Some of the passengers expressed annoyance over the situation and called on the Airline to always be alive to its responsibility.

Details of The Weeknd Houston Tickets and the Ticket Luck value
Rising as an anonymous singer from Toronto, Abel Tesfaye has created his own brand of music. Mixing electronica, dubstep, hip-hop, R&B, soul and downtempo in a unique way, the artist has come a long way since releasing his mixtape "Triology", followed by debut album "Kiss Land". His second record "Beauty Behind the Madness" has propelled him to superstar status, punctuated by three hits, Cant Feel My Face, The Hills and Often.
Why The Weeknd Houston Tickets Are a Must Buy

- At 25, he has achieved what no other artist has. Simultaneously claiming the three top positions on Billboard's Hot R&B songs chart, The Weeknd has officially become a legend.
- A versatile singer and songwriter, he equally pulls from down-tempo indie, hip-hop and electronic to create his ingenious sound.
- With the vision of introducing new sound, The Weeknd formed his own creative powerhouse XO. He is an inspiration for many aspiring musicians and all those people who desire to push the boundaries.
- Bilingual, the first language he learned and spoke was Amharic. His Ethiopian heritage is visible in his compositions and the single "The Hills" includes a snippet of a lady singing an Amharic lullaby.

My stay at this hotel had some very good points and some not so good points. I'll summarize here:
Good points:
1. The owners are very friendly and helpful, especially Anwar who actually became our guide and took us to Jamma Al Fna on the first night and showed us around. He even haggled for us when we brought some items.
2. The hotel arranged a taxi to pick us up from the airport which was also incredibly helpful. We could never had gotten to the riad if it wasn't for this
3. The room had air conditioning.
Bad points:
1. The location is poor. It is too far from Jamma El fna square which is where all the action occurs.
2. The alley way which leads to the Riad is too dark, smells of sewers and is intimidating. There occasionally are a few local men who hang around this area and once asked me for money, when I said no, this caused an argument.
3. Beware: the bathroom/toilet and the main bedroom are all in one! i.e there is no door on the toilet. I am newly married so can you imagine how embarrasing that can be? Apparently all the rooms have this which is shocking for a 5 star place.
4. Do not get the meal on the first night. It is 40 euros which is far too much! You can easily go to a nice restaurant near Jamma El Fna for 120 dirhams(about £12).
5. I hate cats and the Riad is full of them. Even when I told them that they bother me, nothing was done.
This is not a five star hotel, more like 3 stars.

Face Value to thwart O'Brien raid on Ballinrobe feature
Fresh from adding to his Classic haul at the Curragh on Saturday, Aidan O'Brien turns his hand to the jumps discipline this evening and sends his horse truck west with three runners.
Ballinrobe's €30,000 handicap hurdle over two-and-a-half miles has attracted two O'Brien runners, both owned by JP McManus, in what looks like an extremely competitive heat.
The Jody McGarvey-ridden Plinth, a previous course winner, tops the weights but it is his Ballydoyle stablemate Marchese Marconi which looks the stable's leading light with the owner's retained jockey Mark Walsh doing the steering.
Walsh's mount will carry plenty support on the back of his fine second to Walk To Freedom in a decent novice event at Punchestown, but the vote goes to Face Value for the Ado McGuinness team.
A former winner at this venue, the seven-year-old showed a welcome return to form when third at Limerick last time, and while Phantom Prince finished just in front of him in that contest, Face Value is worthy of an each-way investment with Shane Crimin's valuable seven-pound claim providing added appeal.
Whatever about Walsh's chances in this, the in-form Kildare rider will carry high hopes of landing a double for his 'boss' courtesy of Christy Roche's promising Kilbeggan winner, Off The Mark, in the opener and the Michael Hourigan-trained The Gatechecker in the maiden hurdle.
A far more difficult puzzle for punters to solve is the second of two €30,000 handicaps being run on the card, the McHale Mayo National Handicap Chase.
Ruby Walsh rides the likely favourite in the Willie Mullins-trained Urano which turned in a very solid display when fourth to Heathfield at Punchestown and with just 10-12 on his back, the seven-year-old looks sure to be involved in the business end, though he would probably prefer to see an ease in the ground.
Michael O'Leary's Gigginstown House colours are carried by two representatives in the Mouse Morris-trained pair of Ravished and Band Of Blood. The latter - which ran a career-best when fourth in the Irish Grand National - is the choice of retained rider Bryan Cooper and if his mount maintains his current rate of improvement, Band Of Blood looks the one to follow.
O'Brien, meanwhile, fields an interesting runner in the closing bumper as gives a debut to the McManus-owned Captain Barbossa which might have enough potential to overcome his inexperience and get the better of the twice-raced Colwinston.
Bookmakers had the better of the exchanges at the Co Mayo venue last night, with the Gordon Elliott-trained Eshtiaal (11/8) being the sole winning favourite on the seven-raced card. Victory in the featured mares' handicap hurdle went to Thomas Gibney's 10/1 shot The Nutcracker, which Andrew Lynch steered to a length-and-a-half success from Supreme Vic.

Unlike traditional kits, you don-t need to be a dab hand at DIY to use Chipex. It also promises better value for money than a radical full respray, and its results far surpass those of traditional kits, largely thanks to a unique paint colour match guarantee.
The problem of stone chips and road rash
The roads habitually spit grit and loose stone chips at the bodywork of cars, causing a spray of paint scratches to form. This is called road rash.
What is Chipex Hummer h2 Touch up Paint?
Chipex Hummer h2 Touch up Paint is the road rash repair solution you've been waiting for.
Why is Chipex better than traditional methods?
- Chipex offers a unique colour match guarantee - it promises paint that's exactly matched with the colour code of your Hummer h2.
- Standard inclusions are easy-to-follow instructions, all the accessories you need and ready-to-apply paint.
- The flawless finish makes a full respray an expensive and unnecessary task.
- Unlike repairs by professional paint scratch repair companies, you don?t need deep pockets to get a Chipex repair.

Unanswered: mysql 4.x : max_questions, max_updates, and max_connections
from mysql 4.0.2 and above 3 new user privileges are listed in the mysql.com documentation:
max_questions, max_updates, and max_connections
1. how are these used ?
2. are they used on a per mysql username basis ?
3. how are the values set - in the grant command or in my.cnf ? max_connections variable is listed in my.cnf and variables list at http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/SHOW_VARIABLES.html, but max_questions and max_updates are listed on any my.cnf/variables list on mysql.com site http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/SHOW_VARIABLES.html ?
i.e. would these 3 user privileges be used like this
GRANT MAX_QUESTIONS, MAX_UPDATES, MAX_CONNECTIONS, SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT, DELETE, DROP, CREATE, INDEX, ALTER, CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES, LOCK TABLES on databasename.* to mysqlusername@localhost WITH MAX_QUERIES_PER_HOUR N1 MAX_UPDATES_PER_HOUR N2 MAX_CONNECTIONS_PER_HOUR N3;
is it me, or is the mysql.com documentation on mysql.com out of date in areas related to mysql >4.x

Shamil Gamzatov vs. Louis Taylor Completes WSOF 32 Main Card
The World Series of Fighting 32 main card is complete with the addition of a middleweight showdown pitting Shamil Gamzatov against Louis Taylor.
The Las Vegas-based promotion announced the contest on Friday. Additionally, Hakeem Dawodu will square off against Marat Magomedov in a featherweight rematch on the preliminary draw.
WSOF 32 takes place at Xfinity Arena in Everett, Wash., on July 30 and features a championship doubleheader, as Marlon Moraes defends the 135-pound strap against Josh Hill, while Alexandre Almeida puts his featherweight title on the line against Lance Palmer. The main card will air on NBC Sports Network at 10 p.m. ET/7:30 p.m. PT.
Gamzatov, 25, made his promotional debut at light heavyweight in January, when he stopped Teddy Holder 2:32 into the opening round at WSOF 27. The Russian is 10-0 in his professional career, with all of his victories coming inside the distance.
The 37-year-old Taylor enters the matchup on a five-fight winning streak. The former Strikeforce and Bellator talent was successful in his first WSOF foray, as he submitted Cory Devela in 29 seconds on March 12. All five of Taylor's recent triumphs have ended inside of a round.

I did things a little diffrently today too, and it went well. Quite often I have a fair bit to orginize with some of the crafts and games I have; and ds is usualy crying as he's not alowed near them. Also if I totaly don't feel motivated to get orginized we tend not to do any school. but today I decided to just grab a FIAR book (hadn't even looked at the manual) a packet of number flash cards that have dots, nubers, animals etc in the pack, and a large ABC floor puzzle. We read the book, did the puzzle and sang the alphabet song upteem times then played with the cards matching animals to there dot 'homes' it went great! I've decided to do more of this simple school with the same layout; book, ABC and number activity.

A manager has to be a leader. In addition to heading a team of professionals, a manager is also the crucial link between junior management and senior management. Mid management professionals play the most important roles in an organization. While the general focus and adulation is often bestowed upon the senior executives and management personnel of a company, without the effective involvement of a manager, no organization can scale the heights that it has the potential for. An effective manager is an asset to an organization. Even if the junior staffs are not as desirable or if the senior management fails to steer the company, it is the manager that can play the most decisive role.
Role of a Manager
How To Be A More Effective Manager is a guide for all and sundry who intend to be leaders or are playing a leadership role in their organization. Managers are an entirely different breed. They have to work like any other staff but think like an entrepreneur. They have to be proactive in everything they do and at the same time be consistently introspective to assess if what they are doing is right or wrong. A manager should be a leader who heads the team from the front but at the same time he or she should allow every employee to realize their full potential. It may seem that the life of a manager is one full of paradoxes but that is what the reality is, which is also why the role of a manager is so quintessential to the success of a company.
Increasing Your Effectiveness
To be an effective manager, you have to be competent in what you do, you should be knowledgeable, a hard worker, an innovator, an organizer, an efficient supervisor, the planner, the reviewer and the reporter. All these traits are the very basic that make one an effective manager. A manager needs to focus on macro management while at the same time he or she should have the larger picture in mind. An effective manager knows how to spot talent, is fair and clearly understands the potential of every member in the team. A manager bestows responsibility and accountability equally on every member and also on himself or herself. There is no quick process to become an effective manager. It takes practice, intent and willingness to hone oneself for the job and for all the challenges and rewards that come with it.

Written and Drawn by Various
Published by Villard Books
The members of Blue Sky Studios, responsible for such animated films as ICE AGE and ROBOTS, stretch their artistic muscles with OUT OF PICTURE, an anthology of sequential art stories on a variety of topics. The group demonstrates an interesting mélange of styles, ranging from very traditional looking comics to the more avant-garde faire, but in their own rights, each story within the book is interesting enough to draw your attention and thought processes.
That isn't to say that some pieces aren't wildly more successful at reaching their goals than others. Greg Couch's "Four and Twenty Blackbirds" is an amusing meeting between classic fairy tales and "The Maltese Falcon", and his art reminded me very much of Bill Sienkiewicz' early material. For my money, though, the best piece in the collection is the one immediately following Couch's effort, Michael Knapp's "Newsbreak." It's a surrealist meditation on the effect the news media has on people of conscience, and it certainly seemed to be tapping my own reservoir of nightmares. His art is quite intriguing, as well, using a look you'd almost describe as a very basic animation combined with a deep paint layer. It's very unique.
There are some weaker bits in the collection, but even those have their own merits, whether conceptually or artistically. Really, this is a lovely book, and it also has a format to envy. One of the only things I've not enjoyed about other superior collections like FLIGHT is their slavish attachment to the 6.7×10.2 printing format. OUT OF PICTURE runs at 9×12, giving the work room to breathe on the page. Easily worth your twenty dollars.

When an institution runs out of space, we understand the instinct to build new. New buildings are shiny and attract attention. And sometimes, they're necessary.
But when it came time to address our pressing need for additional administrative space, we decided to take a different approach. A sustainable approach. An approach that's very much in keeping with our Benedictine heritage. The sisters with whom we share space, faith and heritage have agreed to make three monastic buildings available for the college to purchase.
The buildings include:
A sustainable move
Historically, the college has been able to renovate space for 60-75 percent of the cost of building new. These renovations will be built to a LEED standard, and since the buildings are already on our power grid, we won't be expanding our carbon footprint for additional utility structures. These renovations will achieve:

Well, this is going to be the most offbeat post, perhaps I never intended to do. Somehow this seemed to be waiting for a very long time. Yes, you guessed it right, I am trying to be spontaneous. "He is a joke", I just heard you, and I want me to be perceived this way, but mind you, only for this post. Who knows, I may ever write it again and still try to limit you guys to its extent. Never mind, I would not bother about that right now. Let us begin, just in case if you have not closed on me yet, but before that let me warn you, things that you are going to read further will have utter bullshit and nonsense stuff. I promise you, you would regret it the most, it is perhaps one of the stupid technique I may have used on this platform. Still not convinced, want to read anymore, that's completely your choice now. Let me quickly place a disclaimer on this blog, probably somewhere in the mid of the sentences, no, no, absolutely no, told you I am really messing here and tarnishing my image here, where should I place it, yes right, once I finish writing. Sorry Disclaimer, you will have to wait for your turn, no.. no… don't cry, it's all fine. See, I don't like kids who don't listen to me and act dirty. What did you say, Am I dirty? think twice before you call me, huh….phew, I am back, just had disclaimer claiming, Have I turned you off. Oh Gosh! I knew this was coming, Little Shark has jumped out of the tank to say hi, Well, being a sober gentleman I did say hello, but that was it, Now I see myself in its stomach and could literally feel its ribs tickling my back. Goodness Gracious, Little Shark has just eaten me, bloody hell, lucky my laptop had a tiny cutter. Now I can slit the skin open and I will be free. Alas! I am free, what a wonderful feeling, I never hoped to see myself back out here. What next? you still there, yes, I see you. Don't worry I am as brave as my uncle's turtle. I just did it with so ease, butter on bread huh… Why am I naked, bloody hell, I see my clothes hanging on dead shark's tooth, that's a quite pointed one..too easy, I just got it back, you still there, close your eyes, you should not have seen me like this on the first place. Never mind, I require just little over a minute to get dressed. This is my Happy Birthday suit. (Have Fun)
Wreck your brain, I just did mine……(Just for fun)

Question About My Sphincter and Tearing and Bleeding
Patient : About a year ago i was very constipated and during a bowel movement I tore my ( sphincter lining ) . It bled for a minute and stopped. I told my doctor twice in the past year and it was like she didn't even listen to me. I am worried about it. It tears every morning and bleeds for a few seconds. Also, I just did a self exam and it feels like the scabbing is causing the 2 sides of my ( sphincter ) to grow together, like 2 opposite sides of lining are becoming one. I was able to confirm this and tore the conjoined scabbing apart slightly. Should I be worried and is there something I should do about it? Will the lining grow together and make my ( sphincter ) smaller? Would that cause pain during bowel movements in the future? I don't think the scabbing will ever heal as with every one of my bowl movements the lining becomes aggravated .

We hear it all the time: "Southern California doesn't have seasons."
And for those natives, who'd like nothing more than to instinctively retort such perceptions, I suggest you look no further than the image Jeff Beard shot last October. (Yes, that's right … in October.)
"It was a gorgeous day out in Marina del Rey," the photographer writes in an email. "The sun, the waves, the sailboats ... and so decided to get creative and share a slice of LA life."
The image was taken with an Olympus OM-D E—M5.

Nico Silins is responsible for the objections. (I'm responsible for any mistakes in presenting his objections.) It seems that we have a kind of unproblematic access to our evidence. Since our evidence is what we have to go on in forming a view without needing any prior reasons for starting here, perhaps we can say this:
AA: If p is part of my evidence, it is possible to know that p is part of my evidence from the armchair.
(1) Suppose we know E=K is true from the armchair.
(2) Suppose p is known to us by means of observation, but not from the armchair.
(3) p is part of our evidence [(1), (2)].
(4) If p is part of our evidence, we can know (3) from the armchair and without observation [AA].
(5) We know (3) from the armchair and without observation [(3), (4)].
(6) We know from the armchair that if (5) is true, p can be known from the armchair [E=K]
(7) We can know p from the armchair [(5)(6)]
But, (7) can't be right. (7) is incompatible with (2). Either knowledge is limited to armchair knowledge (i.e., the external world skeptic wins) or E=K is false.
Second and related objection (again, from Silins). Consider the transition from 'I know p' to 'I know p is part of my evidence', which is sanctioned by E=K and AA. Consider the further inference to 'My belief that p constitutes knowledge' from 'p is part of my evidence', which is licensed by E=K. It seems that I know that if my belief constitutes knowledge, it is not a Gettiered belief. Can I deduce from what is known when I know p is part of my evidence that my belief is not Gettiered? I doubt it.
Or, of course, AA is false. I think AA isn't quite right. The thing for Williamson to say (I think) is that access to evidence requires that the evidence is there to be accessed and given what evidence is, there's no reason to think that it can be accessed from the armchair. If the intuitive motivation for AA is just this: our evidence is what we have to go on in forming a view without needing any prior reasons for starting here rather than with something more basic, it seems to assume that we need something more basic than observational knowledge to serve as the start of our inquiry. But, what could justify that? Nothing promising comes to mind.
While I think that this is an initially promising response, there's an easy way to reinstate Silins' objection. Instead of AA, why not say this instead:
We need no more empirical knowledge to know that p is part of my evidence (when it is) than I need to know p
That seems to be the sort of thing that is congenial to W's view, but it also seems to allow me to reinstate a version of the second objection to W's account.
So far as I can tell, Silins' objections to W apply to my account of evidence only if we assume the principle of armchair access:
(ET) p is part of my evidence only if p.
(IKSE) If p is known non-inferentially to me, p is part of my evidence.
So, if I'm right and AA is false but the principle in bold is acceptable, (ET & IKSE) avoids a real difficulty that arises for E=K.

Details for This Review
Study Population: Adults with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder
Efficacy End Points: Relapse, global state, mental state, leaving the study early, quality of life
Harm End Points: Akathisia, extrapyramidal symptoms, nausea, headache, dyspepsia
Narrative: Antipsychotic drugs are a staple of modern treatment for psychosis-related disorders. Adverse effects from agents such as haloperidol, and a lack of effect on some symptoms, precipitated the development of the 'atypical' antipsychotics that have fewer movement problems. Aripiprazole (Abilify) is a relatively recent addition, approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for a broad array of conditions including schizophrenia, mania, depression, autism, agitation, and tic disorders. This review focused on the effects of aripiprazole compared with placebo or other typical antipsychotics such as haloperidol in patients with schizophrenia.
Fifteen studies with 7,110 patients were included, nine of which compared aripiprazole with placebo and six that compared aripiprazole with haloperidol.1 In one study, aripiprazole resulted in less relapse compared with placebo (number needed to treat [NNT] = 5, 95% confidence interval [CI], 4 to 8). In eight of the studies, aripiprazole produced better compliance with study protocol (NNT = 26, 95% CI, 16 to 239). Compared with haloperidol, aripiprazole was similar for most outcomes, but caused less akathisia (NNT = 20, 95% CI, 17 to 32) and less need for antiparkinson

Strictly for the small-fry set, lacking the visual style, wit or imagination necessary to entice adult viewers. show more
The original English scripts certainly were peppered with sly, topical asides aimed squarely at adults. Paul Bassett Davies' updated screenplay attempts to follow suit, but what passes for topical these days is pretty much limited to industry inside jokes and constant allusions other movies. Thankfully, the animation itself is thoroughly inspired. show more
The slapdash dialogue and smug vocal talent -- even the presence of the much-loved host of "The Daily Show" is wearying -- detract from the visual appeal of the most energetic sequences (like a raucous train chase) and what's left of Danot's designs. show more

Doing painting jobs by yourself vs. hiring professionals
Many people take the idea of painting the house way too seriously. They should think about it as a challenge that can be a lot of fun. There are various opinions on the matter of doing things on your own rather than hiring a professional. Some are open-minded and think of this as a way to express themselves; others are a little bit scared and refer to experts due to their specialized knowledge. Which option is better? You make the choice.
First of all, if you do decide to make things on your own, you should know that your creativity is what makes all the difference. If you want your room to be personal and representative of you, then painting the house on your own is just what you need to do. Professionals have a tendency to be a little pretentious when it comes to creativity. They want to follow different patterns which they've gotten used to. It's really up to you to decide, but a personal room transmits certain energy rather than a plain and mono-colored one.
Another idea that should be taken into account here is related to money saving. If you decide to do things on your own, you can think about what you do with the money you save. Professionals are not that expensive these days, but painting the walls on your own can spare you from some expenses that can be used in other areas.
Next, consider how much time you have to invest in such a project. Usually, professionals can handle the job in a matter of days, so you carry on with your activities, but this implies a cost, as well. If you do have some time and you want to do this seriously, then it's a job that you can offer as much time as necessary in order to finish it properly. You can have your friends over and have the job done a lot faster and cheaper, as well.
The quality of the job is important to be analyzed, as well. Think about how professionally you want things to be done. If you don't need the 90-degree edges to be smooth and you are more of a creative person that can use the space in a whole different way, then doing things by yourself can really be a great choice for expressing your creativity. Imagine that you can design the space the way you see it in your imagination; this is something that no professional can reproduce.
Another detail is the idea of expertise. Of course, a professional house painter will be more prepared to face the quantity of work that needs to be done, but the materials available on the internet can really help those who want to do it on their own. There are so many do-it-yourself manuals around the net that you can have some solid pointers in a matter of hours.
One last detail that should be noted here is related to safety. Professionals are acquainted with a certain level of safety, but if you decide to handle things on your own, you should know that there are certain guidelines that you should follow, from the way you protect your home environment to the type of paint you use. Every detail is important if you want to do the job properly.
Handling the painting job on your own can be a great choice if you want to express the creativity that lies inside you. It's simple and easy to handle; you just need to do a little research before you start in order to discover what you should do and how should you do it. Safety is important, as well, so don't jeopardize it for the sake of saving some cash. It's a choice that will serve you well in the long run.
Author bio: This article is written by Leo Preston, who is a well known guest blogger. When she was in university she was working as a part time painter in Toronto. She knew that what professionals do and what are you doing by yourself. That is the reason why she just describes here the differences of them.

Hot Pope gossip
Warning: This post was published more than 12 years ago.
I keep old posts on the site because sometimes it's interesting to read old content. Not everything that is old is bad. Also, I think people might be interested to track how my views have changed over time: for example, how my strident teenage views have mellowed and matured!
But given the age of this post, please bear in mind:
- My views might have changed in the 12 years since I wrote this post.
- This post might use language in ways which I would now consider inappropriate or offensive.
- Factual information might be outdated.
- Links might be broken; embedded material might not appear properly.
Many thanks for your understanding.
This is too good not to share: the latest rumour from Rome is that there are two parties contending over the moribund Pope. The Italians want to let him go gracefully; the Poles want to keep him alive for as long as possible. But the best bit is the proposed compromise: he is to die on Good Friday, thus confirming, at least to Polish eyes, who it is he most resembles. How providential that Easter comes early this year.
Interesting gossip, though somewhat unlikely, I tend to think. Watch, now, as I curl up in embarrassment come 25th March, as the Pope drops dead…

SK Hynix has started full-scale mass production of 16nm 64-gigabit (Gb) MLC NAND flash chips, according to the South Korea-based memory chipmaker.
SK Hynix entered mass production of its first-version 16nm NAND flash in June, and has recently started to mass produce the second version which is more cost competitive due to its smaller chip size, the company said.
SK Hynix has also developed 128Gb (16-gigabytes, 16GB) MLC chips based on the specification and endurance of 16nm 64Gb MLC, with mass production scheduled for early 2014, the company noted.

If you need to capture images of a program on your computer, you can use any one of several programs. For instance, we use SnagIt for the Macintosh (www.snagit.com) and FullShot (www.fullshot.com) for Windows to create the images that appear in our workbooks. Those individual screen captures can be inserted onto any Captivate slide as an image. From there, you can create an interactive simulation by manually adding click boxes, buttons, and more.
As an alternative to using a third-party application to create screen captures, you can use Adobe Captivate to record just about anything you can do on a computer. During this live, online and very interactive class, you will not only learn to record your screen actions, you will learn some best practices and processes for creating the best screen captures possible.
Have you been frustrated with training classes that don't give you a chance to practice your new-found skills during class? No worries. During this class there will be plenty of time to practice what you learn. In fact, you'll be tasked with recording your own software simulation during the class (on your own) and then share your masterpiece with your virtual classmates… all under the watchful eyes of your certificated instructor.
Who Should Attend?
- eLearning developers who are new to Captivate
- Managers, instructional designers, and others who need to understand Captivate
- Anyone who is new to eLearning and needs to get started with Captivate
Where is this class held?
This is a live, online class led by a field expert; and just like an in-person class, it is fully interactive and engaging. The difference between an online and onsite class? No travel! You can participate from anywhere in the world with an Internet connection. Many of our students choose to stay home from work on these training days, some never even changing out of their slippers! Where applicable, students are able to speak with and hear from the instructor and other participants throughout the course as they work in real-time to complete activities.
Need something a little more personal?
We understand your team might have specific training needs and we would love to work with you. We offer both online and on-site instructor-led, fully customizable courses tailored to your training needs.
Email us so we can discuss your needs and set up your custom training »
This class was formerly titled Adobe Captivate: Creating Software Simulations
Topics covered include:
- Record a Demonstration
Software demonstrations allow you to capture any kind of screen action while adding such best-in-class eLearning features as a mouse pointer, captions, and highlight boxes.
- Record an Assessment Simulation
Demonstrations are great, but if you really want to engage the learner, simulations are a great way to go. Using an Assessment Simulation, your learner will be able to actually perform each step on their own… but in a simulated environment.
- Record a Training Simulation
Assessments allow your learners to interactive with your eLearning. However, if you want to provide a more guided approach to training, a Training Simulation is just the ticket. You can include "hints" throughout your lesson that help learners get past sticking points in your simulation.
- Record a Hybrid Simulation
Demonstrations are awesome. And so are Training and Assessment simulations. However, all three modes have their weaknesses. Those weaknesses will be discussed and you'll create a Custom simulation that will allow you to create awesome interactive eLearning faster than ever.
- Record in Manual Mode
If the screen you are trying to capture isn't cooperating (perhaps you're trying to capture images of a mobile device, not a particular program), manual recordings might be a true life-saver.

A lovely conversation about chakras:
Not Me
don't really believe in chakras but i do believe in the mental clarity and neural pathway realignment that comes with meditation.
why don't you believe in chakras?
because it's just a philosophical construct.
they're not real. they're more like metaphors for our own personal dramas and how to overcome them.
it's one of those things science is finally getting around to having the instruments to detect them
Kundalini and chakras are things I am actually really strong in feeling about.
Not Me
how do you know?
(not being argumentative, just genuinely curious)
Have you ever read the studies about a group of people praying/meditating for a sick person in a hospital far away, without that person knowing, and that person's health improves?
Not Me
i saw it in a documentary…something about that.
It's things like that that encourage me to believe in Chakras
Not Me
so, in your words, what do you think chakras are?
And my own experiences
Wow. here's an analogy that I just thought of, and I want to play with it so I'll share it with you…
You've heard of the three blind men and the elephant analogy?
Not Me
Incredibly abridged version: three blind guys come up on an elephant, one feels the leg says, wrinkly, hairy, strudy. Another feels the ear and says, no way, flimpsy, soft maleable, another feels the trunk and is like, no way, long, thin, hollow, muscular…you get the idea of how those three different parts, when isoloated, are completely different
but it's still part of a bigger whole?
Not Me
ok yeah
One of my favorite lines from the Person Letters, also in the same vein, says, "If God is truly so omnipotent as we say, how can one of our religions truly cover the entire scope of that omnipotence? Is it possible that each religion highlights an aspect of said omnipotence?"
still with me?
Not Me
ok sure… "all ways lead to the Way". I read that in a book.
probably a Tao book, lol
Not Me
it was fiction but yeah, the character was based on a taoist monk
Ha! Totally fucking called it
So, track with me.
Instead of god, think of our body
we have energy, right, you do believe that we have energy
and are made up of vibrations and energy, yes?
Not Me
vibrations are energy resonating
And would you agree that humans are multi-faceted individuals that has a large internal dynamic and external expressions?
tons of different moods, perspectives, thoughts, etc?
Not Me
And we go through a ton of different transitions in life, yes? Different areas grow at different times, Maslow's Hierarchy of needs, and the such, yes?
Not Me
don't know what that is necessarily but yes.
Never heard of Maslows Hierarchy of needs?
Not Me
Not Me
oh ok yes
Okay, let's bring it back to chakras, lol
we are a being of energy
that is multi-faceted
Not Me
like a 12-side die
in dungeons and dragons
carry on
so why not have different energy centers that focus on certain facets, that specialize in certain facets, instead of a free for all, that all contribute to the larger whole (bring back in the elephant) so that similar vibrations vortex with similar vibrations…bring in the rainbow here and you get the various frequencies of vibrations pulsing to produce color, those same colors relate to the chakras as well
and then bring in Maslow's triangle, which also tracks with the chakras
why, if we are intellegent beings, would our energy not separate into sub energies to focus on different aspects.
Not Me
there's a storm going on in my brain. please hold.
i get what you're saying. but then what function do they serve? other than a way for us to visually parse out our own energy?
okay, meditator, here's where intention comes into play. Isn't easier to have a focal point when meditating?
Not Me
So I know that if I'm feeling flighter or scared for survival, that energy is in my first chakra, so I focus there
and one step further, which I should have said, the organs associated with the chakras are associated with their meanings too
What do you think the throat chakra energy is all about? Or the heart chakra?
location isn't random
Not Me
swallowing and beating
speaking and beating
speaking and loving?
Not Me
oh yeah i guess that too
but see, to me, that is just a visual imagining.
the energy feels differently to me
it feels different when I place my hands in different places
muladhara tends to feel…sturdy in my hands if it is strong whilst the heart tends to feel, soft…
again, when in balance
Not Me
like when a doctor says "ok i'm going to stick you with this needle. now imagine there's a big bad guy on your leg. I'm going to stab him. but it might hurt your leg a little bit." the kid imagines it and it might make him endure the shot. the same can be said for chakras. just mental images. "breathe into your legs." well, you don't actually breathe into your legs, you have no leg-lungs, but you visualize it and you may feel more relaxed in your legs. you imagine chakras like that, you may feel warmer near the heart, or less tense in your forehead near your forehead chakra.
And yes, visual definitely that is definitely a part of that. but
but I think the organs they relate to come into play
and no, you don't literally have lungs in your legs, but you do have arteries and blood vessels full of oxygen flow there, and to breathe into that place is to breathe awareness and focus into that are
Not Me
right, you're focusing there. who says that's not what chakras are? you paying attention to this particular part of your body. they're not necessarily there, you're just paying attention to that area.
and the brain does the rest
okay, perhaps…
Not Me
i should meditate on this.
are chakras constructs of the mind? or are they tangible sources of energy?
For me though, one of the things I am seeing happen more and more is the drill down and separtion of the whole into parts…why would that not apply to our own energy as well? each atom gets smaller and smaller, but still has an entire universe in each aspect. Why would we just be a single energy source?
and not one broken out into vibrations and strengths?
for me? tangible sources, for you? Constructs of the mind
and if it's a construct of the mind, why not just, bend the spoon?
Not Me
ok, to you they are maybe not tangible because they are energy centers… unlike a heart or lung which are tangible. but the energy that governs them. ok
bend the spoon! how very Neo of you
i should read up on them.
i know nothing outside of what i'm told in yoga, acupuncture, and some meditation. "breathe into your heart chakra" ..um…ok…
