Mapping the Matrix: The Ways of Neocortex
Neuron, Volume 56, Issue 2, 25 October 2007, Pages 226-238
Rodney J. Douglas and Kevan A.C. Martin
SummaryWhile we know that the neocortex occupies 85% of our brains and that its circuits allow an enormous flexibility and repertoire of behavior (not to mention unexplained phenomena like consciousness), a century after Cajal we have very little knowledge of the details of the cortical circuits or their mode of function. One simplifying hypothesis that has existed since Cajal is that the neocortex consists of repeated copies of the same fundamental circuit. However, finding that fundamental circuit has proved elusive, although partial drafts of a "canonical circuit" appear in many different guises of structure and function. Here, we review some critical stages in the history of this quest. In doing so, we consider the style of cortical computation in relation to the neuronal machinery that supports it. We conclude that the structure and function of cortex honors two major computational principles: "just-enough" and "just-in-time."

Horizontal integration in the neocortex
Charles D. Gilbert
Rockefeller University, 1230 York Avenue, New York, NY 10021-6399, USA
From the classical work of Golgi anatomists and the discovery of columnar functional architecture, the cortex came to be thought of as a structure containing independent modular units (the columns), with most of the internal circuitry involving vertical connections within the modules (across cortical layers) and little horizontal communication between modules. However, the development of new techniques for tracing neuronal pathways has revealed the existence of extensive communication between distant cortical modules within each cortical area and considerable convergence in the projection from one cortical area to another. These discoveries have importance in understanding the way the cortex analyses the sensory environment, and are likely to be general features for all the operations the cortex performs.

This is my first Marie.
mix wool
Feb 28, 2008, 01.14 AMby lauriana
I think it looks good! And podge, I made my Marie with a plain back and I like it very much. Also, compairing fully pleated ones and plain back versions here, I'm inclined to think that you get less suggestion of added width at the hips with a plain back.
Feb 27, 2008, 03.38 AMby kimbermed
Beautiful job. The pleats are lovely.
Feb 27, 2008, 03.13 AMby podge
This is wonderful, i was thinking of making this skirt, but wasn't sure about the pleats and whether it would make me look larger than i am!!! i was also thinking of just giving it a plain back rather than carrying the pleats onto the back as well. Congratulations to you though, it looks wonderful.

Tedster - I didn't say .COM was USA - I know it isn't. But it's managed by the US, at least for the most part, and is, as I say, mostly badly managed. My point was that google is not obeying (at least!) the spirit of WWW which should be world wide regardless of TLD.
If google wants to allow punters to search by country it's simple: either the searcher types in the country (or a subset, eg county) as they do now or present a drop-down for ALL countries. Surely that's not beyond a bunch of graduates? Even my smallest site can manage that!
Mind you, google will probably still present the wrong data. It's getting way beyond a joke.

Hospital board members and other leaders should consider market characteristics, base salaries and incentives, and the structure of the compensation package when developing a physician compensation plan.
Healthcare reform is a game changer for hospitals and health systems, with new rules and new objectives for participants. A game-winning strategy for hospitals and health systems should include compensation structures that engage physicians in the mission of the health system and enable them to work toward goals that support the mission, vision, and goals of the organization.
Developing a meaningful compensation structure—encompassing salary, incentives, and benefits—involves taking an in-depth look at the organization's culture, mission, and underlying philosophy and considering their value in relation to each of these areas.
The expectations of employed physician groups may vary from group to group. Some groups will be expected to cover their expenses, while others will be expected to generate a positive margin. Some will contribute in ways that go beyond their financial ROI. The best way to arrive at a meaningful physician compensation structure is to consider these and other issues and to seek ways to reward physicians based on outcomes that are rooted in the organization's strategic mission.
Hospital board members and other leaders should ask three critical questions in determining the right approach to physician compensation.
How will market characteristics influence physician compensation? When defining the physician market, the following factors should be carefully examined:
To what extent should base salaries and incentives be used to compensate physicians? Currently, even for physicians who are employed by health systems, there is very little variable component of compensation beyond base salary. Potential elements of compensation include not only cash and benefits, but also intangible benefits that come with working at a hospital or health system. For physicians, these benefits could mean anything from a flexible work schedule to opportunities for research, pro bono projects, conference presentations, independent contracting, or other work in the community.
How should the organization's physician compensation package be structured? Just as salary levels provided by hospitals and physician groups differ, benefits provided in private practice are typically not the same as those paid by hospitals. There are a number of variables to consider, such as retirement plans and supplemental executive retirement plans, annual incentives and long-term incentives, and long-term disability.

Questions & Answers
Madison Park Andora Rod Pocket Curtain Single Panel
Andora Rod Pocket Curtains Deborah from Indianapolis, IN– Verified Buyer The curtains that I purchased were white and looked beautiful against my newly painted gray walls. However the tabs had many loose strings on them as did the panels lining. The bottom part of the panels look a bit wrinkled despite having them professionally pressed. |
Very Nice Devin from Cobleskill, NY– Verified Buyer The curtains themselves are beautiful. But when I hung them up they just didn't give me the look I was going for so I had to return them but they are a beautiful material and pattern. |
Great Value Pam from Mountain Home, AR– Verified Buyer The color was exactly what the ad showed, perfect color and design for my use. |
Love them! patricia from carmel, NY– Verified Buyer Absolutely would recommend these curtains. Purchased for my diningroom which has grey walls and it looks great. I purchased the white with grey branches. |
Excellent choice! L from East Wenatchee, WA– Verified Buyer I bought 4 panels for 2 large windows in my family room. They are excellent quality, lined, no snags, and hang beautifully (after I steamed them to get the wrinkles out). The tan color I ordered is darker than what is shown, but I actually like the real color better. I am going to order more for my dining room. |
Nice quality Margie from Louisiana I like them and they are great. I am very pleased with them and your services. |
Stunning! April from Battle Creek, MI– Verified Buyer They are exactly as pictured! Love the natural look and the heavy, silky material. Just what I was looking for. |
Andora Sythetic Tyler from Iowa City, IA– Verified Buyer Looks good, material blocks the sun well. I'm happy with this purchase. |
Madison Park James from Monument, CO– Verified Buyer Great product, good value, looks great. These finished our room perfectly, but please note that they are not privacy or light blocking and you still need a window blind. |

Many thanks to the consistently awesome Step for sending this to me!

Hartley & Mary Peavey Named 'Distinguished Entrepreneurs of the Year'
April 11, 2008
HATTIESBURG, Miss. - The University of Southern Mississippi honored Hartley and Mary Peavey with its Distinguished Entrepreneurs of the Year Award on April 10 in Hattiesburg. Hartley and Mary Peavey are the first recipients to share the annual USM College of Business award, and Mary Peavey is the first woman to receive the honor. In a lecture to the College of Business following the awards luncheon, Hartley Peavey urged students to focus on the future. "Mary and I are very humbled to receive this award today," remarked founder and CEO Hartley Peavey. "The truth about entrepreneurs is that we have to approach every day with enthusiasm, a willingness to learn from mistakes and the desire to innovate, and trust that those traits will guide us to success. My only advice for you is never quit." Alvin Williams, interim Dean and Professor of Marketing, said the USM College of Business is pleased to recognize the exemplary accomplishments of Hartley and Mary Peavey in revolutionizing the sound industry around the globe. "Their commitment to 'listening to the customer' and following their dreams has led to new ideas, new products and exciting new markets worldwide. They embody the spirit and soul of what we teach our entrepreneurship students." Hartley Peavey founded Peavey Electronics Corporation in 1965 using the attic space above his father's Meridian, Miss., music store as his first base of operations. Now housed in 27 facilities across the United States and the United Kingdom, Hartley Peavey has grown his one-man company into one of the world's largest manufacturers of musical instruments and professional sound equipment. A well-known industry spokesperson, Hartley Peavey is a recognized authority in the music and audio field as well as in marketing and international trade. Prior to taking the reins as company president, Mary Peavey led an illustrious career in commercial real estate, during which she founded and managed her own company. Mary Peavey studied at Mississippi State University and became one of the first women to complete the prestigious Owner/President Management Program in the Harvard Business School's Executive Education division. She currently serves on the board of directors for the national Afterschool Alliance. Each year, the USM College of Business Distinguished Entrepreneur of the Year Award recognizes an entrepreneur whose individual spirit of determination and vision has resulted in an American success story. Previous recipients include H. Ross Perot and David Oreck. In addition to countless music and audio industry awards, Hartley Peavey has received leadership honors such as the National Literacy Honors Award and multiple Presidential "E Star" Awards for excellence in exporting, among others.

Product Features
Visionnary MappingTM
One technological advance that differentiates the NaviBot from previous robotic vacuum cleaners is its innovative Visionnary MappingTM technology. The NaviBot uses an onboard camera, capable of capturing images at 30 frames per second, to take an image of the ceiling before cleaning commences. By using this image to create a virtual map of the cleaning zone the robot calculates the most efficient cleaning route to ensure maximum coverage of the area. This ensures that cleaning is carried out in a methodical, improved by the fact that the NaviBot remembers which areas have already been completed, so that they are not covered twice. It is this logic that sets the NaviBot apart from other robotic vacuum cleaners in the marketplace. Compared with competitor models, which clean in a haphazard and random manner, the NaviBot reduces cleaning time whilst increasing coverage, leading to an all round more efficient and thorough cleaning performance.
Triple Brush System
The NaviBot uses a triple brush system to ensure the maximum pick up of dust, dirt and pet hair from wood and laminate floors to short and mid pile carpets. The two side brushes rotate to loosen the pile of the carpet and sweep any surface debris into the path of the main brush. These 'road sweeper' type brushes enable the NaviBot to clean right up to edges and in to corners with ease. The bristles of the main brush then help to propel pet hair and dirt into the suction path, aided by soft rubber teeth that also help to trap and collect hair and debris.

Samsung SR8845 Navibot review
Despite our best efforts, the floor of Expert Reviews labs is often less than sparkling. With so much kit being unpacked and tested, the carpet tiles are often littered with small screws, cable ties and packing croutons. We were overjoyed then when...
alaTest has collected and analysed 84 reviews from magazines and websites. People really like the design, whereas reviews are divided on the value for money.

Why Microsoft Chose Windows 8 Over Courier
Cnet is delving further into the death of the Microsoft Courier
Cnet is delving further into the death of the Microsoft Courier
The sudden death of Kin came as a surprise, but it's increasingly clear that it shouldn't have. First came hints of internal strife
Earlier we discovered that J. Allard, the Father of the Xbox, is leaving Microsoft
The WSJ solidifies an intriguing post by Mary Jo Foley last week that J. Allard, the guy behind the Xbox, Zune and Courier—or more formally, the Chief Experience Officer and Chief Technology Officer of Microsoft's E&D division—is leaving after Steve Ballmer killed the Courier tablet project
More details on Courier, courtesy of Mary Jo Foley: Most interestingly, her sources say it runs Windows 7 underneath, the same way the Surface runs on top of Vista, and that Microsoft will actually make the tablet hardware. » 9/29/09 11:40am 9/29/09 11:40am
It feels like the whole world is holding its breath for the Apple tablet. But maybe we've all been dreaming about the wrong device. This is Courier, Microsoft's astonishing take on the tablet. » 9/22/09 7:30pm 9/22/09 7:30pm
Microsoft, by the hand of J Allard, the guy in charge of the Entertainment and Devices (Xbox and Zune) Division, has filed for patent protection for a "Magic Wand". What? Oh, it's a Wiimote. » 5/18/09 4:32am 5/18/09 4:32am
J Allard, who most recently helped give the Xbox and the Zune a really, really good user experience has gotten a promotion to "Chief Experience Officer" of the Entertainment and Devices devision. The E&D devision, for those of you who don't know, encompasses Xbox, Games for Windows, Mobile Communications (including… » 6/30/08 4:02pm 6/30/08 4:02pm
What J. Allard reveals when he talks about Microsoft's (and his) plans for conquering all media isn't surprising—an integrated, single network for all of its entertainment products and services. NYT's Bits sums up his spiel in three sentences: » 11/16/07 4:42pm 11/16/07 4:42pm
Allard also shared his feelings about the first Zune—what he calls "failing…We're not sure why this was a policy, but J Allard famously avoided being photographed with a Zune starting from the launch last year up until this week. Seriously, go try and find a picture of him with a Zune. It's impossible! Apparently his shame for the generation 1 product is over, since he proudly held up a Zune… » 10/03/07 4:00pm 10/03/07 4:00pm
Ashcraft continues Kotaku's tradition of "creepily stalking
We called up J Allard today to get him to spill the rest of the Zune enchillada. Like our obsession with Steve Jobs, cousin gaming site Kotaku can't stop thinking about Allard. Brian Ashcraft wanted us to ask him questions like, "If Microsoft was a World of Warcraft guild, what class would you be? " We're not fanboys,… » 9/14/06 4:38pm 9/14/06 4:38pm

The hotel was nice, clean , and certainly well priced. but, it was situated on a highway. a fact missing from the description but, now I can see a small slice of highway in one of the pictures. We were upgraded?? to a room with a large balcony overlooking highway 101. I would have probably still booked but it would have been nice to know.

This is my first review of any hotel ever, I thought the only reason I'd start would be to complain about a horrible experience. The Carmel Mission Inn was my last night in a cross country drive from Upstate New York, to the West Coast. I had just spent the last 4 days staying at 'Chain' Inns/Motels along the highways that were MORE expensive, and nothing special. Even though the entrance is next to a gas station, from the moment I arrived, it felt country club-esque. The front desk staff were very polite and professional, the grounds and lobby were top notch. I checked into a room that was fresh and clean, the furnishings and decor were more akin to a boutique hotel that costs double. I went and had dinner at their dinning area and sat at the bar.

Older property but nicely updated. When they ask you at check-in if you want the brunch for $9 take it! We didn't and regretted it. Paid $15 but was still a good value.

We've stayed here about 10 times in the past 5 years. We're members of the aquarium and visit often. This hotel has usually been a great place to stay--there are very good places to eat breakfast/lunch/dinner all within a short walk; the service has always been good and most importantly for me, our rooms have been quiet at night. We enjoyed everything about our last stay, except for one thing. When we looked at our white socks, a few hours after checking in, they were black on the bottom! Don't know what it was, but there was something really oily/dirty on the carpet, making us wear our shoes in the room for the remainder of our stay. I'm hoping this was just a one time aberation, because it's been such a great place to stay.

Is using Disengage with Engulfing Magic really a good idea?
I thought that the rule was to not use disengage to get away from things that had already happened because the game considers you to be at your launch point until you land.
So for Engulfing Magic, wouldn't the game consider you to still be standing beside everyone else until you land? And still causing ticks of damage to everyone else until you land?

TEAMS: Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Carolina Panthers
TEAMS: Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Carolina Panthers
Going into yesterday's Panthers game, it was easy to be a little overconfident.
The Bucs had a 5-4 record, and had won four of their last five games. Running back Doug Martin was all over national sportscasts, with talking heads who usually seem to forget the Bucs exist ("Wait, you mean that team with the orange uniforms? Vinny Testeverde's team?") proclaiming the newbie as a candidate for Rookie of the Year.
On the opposite end of the spectrum, the Panthers were coming in at 2-7, having blown several leads over the course of the season, and with the national chatter centering on the sophomore slumping Cam Newton and his terrible, horrible, no good, very bad attitude.
You can understand, then, why I entered the game absolutely prepared for a Bucs win, and why I was extremely perturbed by sites (such as this one… ahem) that picked the Panthers to beat the Bucs. I mean, what does a team have to do to get a little respect? Score 28 or more points in five straight games? Lead the NFL in...

text: The Supreme Court of the Philippines [official website] unanimously upheld the constitutionality of HSA [JURIST report] in October 2010, ruling the petitioners lacked legal standing to challenge the law because it had not caused them any actual damage. In its decision, the court noted that law enforcement officers' reluctance to enforce the law [JURIST report] means it has had no real effect on the civil liberties of militant groups. Even before the controversial law went into effect [JURIST report], there was substantial opposition to the legislation. In March 2007, UN human rights expert Martin Scheinin recommended that the act be amended or repealed [JURIST report]. Also that year, the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines urged the government to revisit the act [JURIST report], saying that "many voices are apprehensive" about the anti-terror legislation. In response to criticism, Filipino presidential spokesperson Ignacio Bunye said that the law had already undergone "exhaustive debates" in the legislature [JURIST report]. The government also announced plans for a "massive public information and advocacy campaign" to accompany implementation and highlight "the existence of terror cells in the region and throughout the world."

The candle often goes out on its own as the wick is too short...also the candle doesn't burn properly as the wax pools only around the wick creating a hole in the candle.

Cedar Rapids Weather
Gazette/KCRG All-Area Boys' and Girls' BBBy Jeff Johnson and Jeff Linder, Reporters
Jeremy Morgan was tired and in some pain Monday night.
"Oh, man, are my legs sore," the Iowa City West senior said. Morgan is running track this spring and still getting used to the workouts. He got a later start to the season than most of the Trojans because he was busy doing other things. Like helping West's basketball team to its second consecutive undefeated season. The 6-foot-6 wing was the undisputed leader of a squad that went 26-0 for the second year in a row. This Class 4A state championship wasn't easy to acquire, by any means. West lost one of its key players (Dondre Alexander) to suspension late in the season, somehow battled back from six points down in the final minute of its state tournament quarterfinal against West Des Moines Dowling and rallied from a halftime deficit in the semifinals against Dubuque Senior. The Trojans drilled Bettendorf in the finals, 54-36. "Doing what we did, going undefeated for two years, there's not any words you can describe it (with)," Morgan said. "I'm very blessed to be a part of this team." The team was blessed to have him. West Coach Steve Bergman has called the Northern Iowa signee one of the best leaders he ever has had, an unselfish player who always had the team's best interests in mind. That's why he averaged just 12 points despite having skills that could have allowed him to get 20 a night. Opposing coaches have mentioned he's one of the best defenders they've seen. Recently named the state's Gatorade Player of the Year, Morgan is The Gazette/KCRG boys' basketball player of the year. "He gives up individual glory for the team," Bergman said. "He knows when it's go time. He is so good at picking up a kid whose confidence is down and that kind of thing." Bergman is the area coach of the year. This was his fourth state title at West, putting him behind only Davenport's Paul Moon in big-school history. He was able get his team through the in-season turmoil and having a target on its collective back. "This just tells you I've coached a heck of a lot of good guys. That's what I see," Bergman said. "I've had a lot of good assistant coaches. I work hard at it, and the kids work just as hard. They work harder." Other all-area selections include: * Division I college signees/commitments Wyatt Lohaus of Iowa City West (Northern Iowa), Klinton Carlson of Waverly-Shell Rock (Northern Iowa) and Rylan Murry of West Branch (Nebraska-Omaha). * Murry, MFL MarMac's C.J. Mason and Vinton-Shellsburg's Grant Sagan all scored over 1,000 points in their careers. * Sagan, Mason, Dubuque Senior's Kyle Haber and Kalehl Brown of Cedar Falls are the only players on this list without cemented college plans. Ally Disterhoft has won the highest honors a girls' basketball player in Iowa can earn. Miss Iowa Basketball, by the Iowa Newspaper Association. Gatorade Player of the Year. Maybe this one pales by comparison. But this one, she earned twice. Disterhoft, who led Iowa City West to its third consecutive state tournament, is honored for the second consecutive year as The Gazette/KCRG player of the year. It was a relatively easy selection. The 6-foot senior guard, bound for the University of Iowa, led the state in scoring at 26.3 points per game. "Ally did everything she's done (this season) with most teams focusing on her," said West Coach B.J. Mayer. Disterhoft led West to the Class 4A state championship in 2012, then — after the team graduated most of its lineup — led the Women of Troy back to state this season. They got there by upsetting No. 1 Iowa City High in the regional final, then fell to Mason City in the state quarterfinals. "I always thought we'd have a lot of potential. On paper, we weren't expected to do as well," Disterhoft said. We were getting better, but it was at a slower rate than we wanted. But it paid off at the end." Tom Lilly is the area coach of the year after leading Cedar Rapids Xavier to its fourth state championship. "The neat thing is that each team was a different group of kids," Lilly said. "The kids seemed to buy into what we wanted to do, and they got better each day." Xavier used the same formula for a title run that it used in 2003, 2005 and 2007. The Saints were battle-tested by the Mississippi Valley Conference, then flourished against Class 4A competition in the postseason. They concluded their run with a thrilling 53-52 victory over Harlan in the championship game. Kayla Armstrong was named the 4A all-tournament captain, and her brilliance in Des Moines earned her a spot on the all-area team, even though she earned no all-state honors by INA. Disterhoft is one of three players to repeat on this team. Benton Community's Madison Weekly and City High's Mickey Hansche are the others. A UNI signee, Weekly led Benton to three state tournaments. She averaged 18.5 points, 3.4 assists and 4.5 steals per game. Hansche and junior Haley Lorenzen led City High to a 20-3 season. Hansche averaged 14.9 points per game while Lorenzen — a University of Florida commitment — led the Little Hawks at 18.7 points and 9.2 rebounds per game. Other all-area selections are: * Cedar Rapids Washington's Dani Franklin, who averaged 17 points and led the Warriors to the state tournament. * Waukon's Daneshia Snitker, the leading scorer in Class 3A at 25.5 points per game. * Drake recruit Paige Greiner of Williamsburg, who led the state in free throw shooting at 89.9 percent. She averaged 15.1 points a game. * North Linn's Nicole Miller, the youngster of the group as a sophomore. She averaged 20.8 points and led North Linn to the Tri-Rivers title. * And Waterloo West's Blaire Thomas, who posted 15.1 points and 8.0 rebounds per game.

I installed release 3.1 yesterday on my Win 98 system and have been suffering with a badly degraded response time on my PC. It was so bad I couldn't even log into the internet. I finally disabled all Spywareblaster protection and rebooted the OS. Usually there is an "uninstall" function provided with software but I can't find one with Spyblaster. Can I just delete the files and be done with it?
