"Very Accommodating"
A comfortable chalet, with an unusually spacious lounge/dining area on the top floor. (Although we didn't have children with us, it would be well suited to a family holiday.) James and Whitney looked after us very well, in particular, being prepared to go out of their way to help us out. (One of our group struggled to walk in ski boots.) The well planned village escalators meant it was easy to get to & from the ski lift, which provides excellent access into the Alpe d'Huez ski area. I would happily return to this chalet.

Guest comments
Deborah described her holiday:
'The location is really lovely and we were cosy and warm. The kitchen was well equipped and the double fridge is a bonus with children. The furniture is beautiful and the place feels so relaxed. The lovely little touches you left for us and the children were also appreciated. The key free system for the chalet was very convenient, especially with all of us coming and going at different times.'
Krystyna summed up her stay:
'Thank you for all your helpful advice and assistance with making our week in your idyllic chalet in vaujany such a success. We have had a superb week's skiing in a most delightful place - absolutely perfect!'

Due to the tremendous amount of rainfall they receive, tropical rainforests have some of the largest rivers in the world, like the Amazon, Mekong, Orinoco, and Congo. These mega-rivers are fed by countless smaller tributaries, streams, and creeks. For example, the Amazon alone has some 1,100 tributaries, 17 of which are over 1,000 miles (1,600 kilometers) long!

A Just War in Timbuktu?
How the Salafist uprising in Mali threw our Enlightenment ideals into confusion.
Is there such a thing as a just war, bellum iustum, these days? Is the French liberation of Mali from the Islamists a just war? And where does such a war end?
Islamists took power in northern Mali in April 2012, after helping Tuareg separatists in their nearly 50-year fight for independence. In June 2012, the Islamists—a coalition of Ansar Dine, Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb and its offshoot, Movement for Oneness Jihad in West Africa (all of whom adhere to Salafism, a fundamentalist form of Sunni Islam)—ousted their Tuareg partners and instituted Sharia law in the Islamic Republic of Azawad, as they called it.
Under the rule of the Islamic Right, music and tobacco were banned, Christian churches were ransacked, and centuries-old Sufi shrines were destroyed. One couple was stoned to death for adultery; a number of men had their hands amputated for theft; a young woman had her ear cut off for wearing a short skirt; and a man was publicly whipped for drinking alcohol, according to Human Rights Watch. Young girls were reportedly forced into marriages to, followed quickly by divorces from, multiple Islamist fighters, so that the intercourse between the girl and her husband-of-the-hour would be legal under Sharia law—rather than out-of-wedlock sex punishable by stoning. Faced with such barbarities, hundreds of thousands of Malians fled.
On January 30, the French Armed Forces, at the behest of the Malian government and with the help of Mali's military, established control of Kidal, the last Islamist redoubt. In the cities of Timbuktu, Goa and Kidal, mostly Muslim crowds, including Tuaregs, cheered the French army, celebrating their release from Salafist rule.
All of which raises thorny questions: Is there such a thing as a just war, bellum iustum, these days? Is the French liberation of Mali from the Islamists a just war? And where does such a war end? What if the Salafis usher in an Arab Winter?
In Egypt's 2011 and 2012 parliamentary elections, the Islamist Bloc, a coalition of Salafist parties to the right of the Muslim Brotherhood, won 27.8 percent of the vote and now control 127 of 498 seats in parliament. And in early February, Salafi cleric Mahmoud Shaaban went on a Salafi TV station and called for the Egyptian government to put to death secular leaders Mohammed ElBaradei, the Nobel Peace Prize winner, and Hamdeen Sabahy, a former presidential candidate.
A few days later, on February 6, Tunisian opposition leader Chokri Belaid, a left-leaning secularist, was gunned down outside his home in Tunis. Most observers believe his assassin was a Salafi aligned with the ruling Ennahda party.
A Syrian man I know is refusing to support the insurgency, not out of love for Bashar al-Assad, but because he would prefer his daughter grow up in a secular dictatorship in which women are relatively free than under a Salafist theocracy where bikinis are banned.
It comes down to this: Does the ascendency of the Salafis present a direct threat to the Enlightenment ideals that have guided human progress for the past 300 years? If so, what would be an Enlightened response to Salafism?
Perhaps it would start with an understanding that the appeal of Islamic extremism has its roots not in Islam, but in the cultural alienation from Enlightenment ideals, which promise personal liberty but, through the free-market economic system, have instead delivered economic penury.
In the case of the war in Mali, the Enlightened response would be for the Malian government to recognize, as the French do, that the Tuareg separatists have legitimate grievances and a just claim to be granted some form of self-rule. Such an acknowledgement might go a long way to convincing young Tuaregs that a better future lies in a tolerant, multi-ethnic democracy than in a religious theocracy.

My real hero lived in my hometown, in India; my hero was closer to me, closer to my life and more real than reel.
The stages of grief were not meant to tell you what you feel, what you should feel, and when exactly you should feel it. They were not meant to dictate whether you are doing your grief "correctly" or not. They were meant to normalize a deeply not-normal time.
I've been thinking about Kade a lot lately, about what his story means and how, at only 16, he'd died as a result of other people's ignorance and violence. What might have happened to us if he had made it? What might he have made of his life? I don't know.
How do we live with our reluctance to engage in family and faith rituals that once gave life, and the season, meaning?
Sixty is not the new fifty. Sixty is what it is: beyond middle-age. I'm not saying this to be mean. It's just that my friends here in the Baby Boom Generation don't want to talk about it. Sixty is hard to accept. So are the AARP envelopes that go in the trash unopened. Heck, we have concerts to go to. We have skiing to do. We have online classes to take.
"What do you write?" Any writer will tell you that this is the first question asked when people find out what they do for a living. It's not like iden...
Speak of my late husband. Go ahead, I beg you. There is an old Jewish proverb that says "As long as we live, they too will live; for they are now are a part of us; as we remember them."
Companion yourself. Care for yourself. Listen. Reach out where it feels good to reach, curl in when that is what you need. Make this season as much of a comfort to you as you can. And when it is not a comfort, know we're here. All these other grieving introverts: We get you. We understand.
I will let my thoughts turn to friends, neighbors and all of those who are hurting and impacted by grave loss. I will consider the strength and trust that so many of them have shown. As I go down my list of blessings, I will make sure to count my many new friends, as well as the rich lessons they provide the rest of us. And I will be truly thankful.
All those dusty skulls staring at you were the people who built the incredible places where we like to get drunk and stumble around as we travel through this amazing continent. That's a pretty cool connection, make no bones about it.
A few weeks before his death, Jon and I were with Martin Luther King Jr. at a small gathering in Selma, Alabama. King asked Jon and me -- and a dozen or so others -- to speak briefly about our feelings and problems within the civil rights movement.
The End-of-Life meeting at the nursing home was held in the Serenity Room at noon. We were summoned, my mother and I, by the team who have been caring for my father for five years in the dementia ward. We showed up late, my mother and I, arm in arm, like diminished Rockettes.
In his timely, thought-provoking book, Death and the Afterlife, Samuel Scheffler argues persuasively that the taking for granted of such a collective afterlife underpins our valuing or caring about our various activities, projects, and involvements.
Above all, show your love. Show up. Say something. Do something. Be willing to stand beside the gaping hole that has opened in your friend's life, without flinching or turning away. Be love. Love is the thing that lasts.
It had been two and a half years since I received his last report. I didn't want to bug him, but my time is very short. I desperately needed a sale.
I visited my mother just a few months before she passed; that was about two years ago now. We went out to dinner in a restaurant attached to a casino....

Product Description
If you can't afford to spend a week's equipment allowance for a few cables, then look no further than the regular Hosa brand for professional cables that work as hard as you do. Hosa pays strict attention to the basics of cable design and construction. It makes sure that the cables are well-shielded from external sources of radio-frequency and current-induced noise and that they're of the proper gauge and of high copper purity to ensure low capacitance. Correct soldering techniques are used to eliminate "cold-solder" joints, which could cause intermittent connections or "ground hums". Finally Hosa makes sure that the jacket and head-shell/strain-relief combination are rugged enough to withstand the rigors of the intended application. Hosa provides all of these benefits in every cable it makes.

Statistically Efficient Estimation Using Population Coding (1998)

Years of Citing Articles
Coarse codes are widely used throughout the brain to encode sensory and motor variables. Methods designed to interpret these codes, such as population vector analysis, are either inefficient (the variance of the estimate is much larger than the smallest possible variance) or biologically implausible, like maximum likelihood. Moreover, these methods attempt to compute a scalar or vector estimate of the encoded variable. Neurons are faced with a similar estimation problem. They must read out the responses of the presynaptic neurons, but, by contrast, they typically encode the variable with a further population code rather than as a scalar. We show how a nonlinear recurrent network can be used to perform estimation in a near-optimal way while keeping the estimate in a coarse code format. This work suggests that lateral connections in the cortex may be involved in cleaning up uncorrelated noise among neurons representing similar variables.

having used OSC a lot its good to a point but no further, personally im thinking of spending far more and getting a more flexable cart, that the world and 15 year old brother dont use. To make OSC look different to the rest you would I imagine have to spend bundles of cash to edit the code, however I have seen many big and I mean big sites using it..... Hmmm its a hard choice.
This discussion on OSC is the sort of thing that im having to kick around in my head at the moment.

The new galaxy stone necklace is now marked 50% off for the month! I'm in love with this deep blue stone. The necklace is simple, subtle and minimal. The stone itself is made of sodalite, and is matte — with no sparkle or shine. The triangle fringe is made of brass and has a dramatic cut. The necklace is on super duper sale as part of the Jewel of the Month club.
As a fan of Game of Thrones, I've been noticing a few fashion themes throughout the show that are nothing short of amazing. Outfits include fashionably armored ladies, elaborately braided warrior garb, flowy gowns with intricate embroidery, fur coated collars on magnificent cloaks, and striking jewelry befitting of the queen of dragons.
AND…I'm super excited to announce that I'll be releasing a line of jewelry next month inspired by Game of Thrones! I've been amassing inspiration, and searching for the perfect jewelry components. Stay tuned for more information about that line coming out, and you can follow my instagram for behind-the-scenes info…
One of the theme I see for the powerful ladies is the use of armor, neckplates, and metal worked into the overly feminine gowns. Some of the armor even has matching jewelry!
One of my favorites is how Cersei 'goes to battle' wearing her metal corset over her dress. She's so prepared! ….To drink lots of wine, insult everyone, and get left out of the popular people club. Oh, Cersei. And…even in non-battle times, she's got her armor-dress, with coordinating jewelry.
I'm probably not alone in favoriting Dany, both her character and her wardrobe. When she's coming into her own, she starts working armor into her closet. Hers is a little more gilded here than Cersei's, and love the golden filigree pattern over the brilliant blue dress.
Margaery also works in a bit of armor, although softer, over her neckline. Margaery probably is my second favorite in terms of her fashion-sense, and the girl is never shy about showing off the cleavage.
The ladies really sport some complicated outfits. Dany's braids — from her hair to her halter top, Margary's draped gowns, and to Sansa's simple silhouette with intricate embroidery, it's nothing short of amazing.
I love watching Dany evolve. From her simple flowy sheer dresses, to her braided warrior outfits, she's constantly changing with the times. Look how tough she is!
Dany and Margaery are never shy of wearing a draped, complicated dress either. Woven halter tops, intricate shoulder drapes, cut-out back designs work their way into each of their dresses.
And finally, we come to Sansa. The poor girl is trapped in captivity, and even though her frocks look simple from afar, up close they have such detail worked into them. However, through no fault of Sansa's, I'm a little bored with her tried-and-true dresses. Most have a princess seam bodice with a A-line full skirt…and gigantic wizard sleeves. Sometimes she gets a wrap-dress, if she's behaved herself. I think I'm just still upset about how she shunned Tyrion on their wedding day.
Do you watch Game of Thrones? What's your favorite fashion of show?
This tutorial shows you how to make a minimal necklace with triangle beads and brass bars strung on a long chain. Necklace hangs super long at 38 inches, and is simple and modern. The tutorial is super easy and is perfect for beginners, even if you've never made jewelry before.
Continue on to the full necklace tutorial…
A few new matte bead necklaces added to the shop. I came across these amazing flat beads that have zero luster and are almost velvety to the touch. Made of sodalite, onyx and dumortierite stone these are some of my favorite stones right now. They are incredible! The deep blue stones look like little galaxy beads that belong in space. Each necklace is paired up with raw brass — either little brass triangles or heishi beads. Geometric and understated.
Continue on to the necklaces…
This month's jewel of the month is black triangle necklace. It's being offered for $25, regularly $40, for the month of February. A small black triangle strung on a delicate 14kt gold filled chain.

I have a new (p)inspiration board up, Wild at Heart, which is the origin of my new boho necklace collection. Of course, at the heart of it all is Ms. Nicks. Speaking of which, have you seen this video?! I could watch it all day long.
Over the past few weeks, I've been acquiring and setting up a home metalsmithing station in my jewelry studio. After Third Ward closed in my neighborhood, I wasn't sure what sort of in-home options there would be, but I am pleasantly surprised at what you can do with a little mini soldering torch!
After some research, I picked up this blazer micro torch and am really impressed with it! I've only been making small things so far, but it really does well, and is super easy to use at home. With the huge oxygen/acetylene tanks I'm always afraid something will go awry, but this little guy is the best! It was recommended on a lot of sites because it gets a bit hotter than your average torch. So far I've been making little stacking rings and earrings. Can't wait to see what else it will do!
In addition to the torch, I picked up a few other materials:
I've been super impressed with how well all of this works at home. Two things that are easier than in the metal shop: soldering paste and penny brite cleanser. The soldering paste comes neatly packaged up with your solder and flux already mixed together! So, you don't have to buy as many things, and your ratio is pre-mixed to the right proportions! This stuff is so easy to work with. And, penny brite. One thing I hated in the big studio was the toxic pickle solution that cleaned the oxidation and fire-scale off of the metal. Penny brite takes a little more work, but it cleans it off just as well! And, it's a non-toxic completely safe-to-use-with-your-hands cleanser. It's actually used to clean your pots and pans. (And it works on all metals, not just copper.)
The first thing I started to make with my new torch are these hammered stacking rings. I started with a piece of wire, wrapped it around the ring mandrel a few sizes smaller than my ring size and cut the wire. Then, I filed the edges, and soldered the ends together. Next, I hammered the wire out to my desired ring size, using a chasing hammer. I love the little hammered look it creates on the ring.
I've made a few rings now out of sterling silver, brass and gold fill and am user testing them for durability, wear and how well the polish holds up. I am in love with them, and catch myself admiring them while I type away at work. As soon as I've passed them through my QA inspection, I'll make a new batch, and they'll be up in the shop for sale!
A Valentine's day gift guide— jewelry edition — for that special lady in your life, whether she's a minimalist fashion gal or a charming cat lady. I've handpicked some of my favorite items from the shop that would make spectacular gifts for your lady. Jewelry includes a sampling of boho necklaces, minimal 14kt gold filled earrings and personalized lockets.
Oh, and remember that lapis lazuli necklace I'm just giving away? Better enter today. It's the last one.
I'm so excited - a few pieces of jewelry from the shop were featured in this Laika magazine this month! I've been looking forward to this coming out for a while now and the photos are great! Laika magazine is a modern, vegan lifestyle magazine, covering everything from fashion, food and music.
The featured necklaces include the peter pan collar necklace, pyrite necklace, and long chevron necklace. The peter pan collar necklace is made with antique brass chains that are draped to form the silhouette of peter pan collar. The pyrite necklace features raw mineral pyrite in a natural freeform shape, strung with a beautiful 14kt gold filled box chain. The long chevron necklace is made with environmentally-friendly hemalyke stone which is man-made, shaped into arrow chevrons, strung on a sterling silver chain.
I just added a bunch of new long boho necklaces to the shop, with bright beads, heishi strands, layered chains, and geometric shapes. The necklaces are modern and minimal, made with raw mineral beads and geometric shapes like black triangles, angular brass bars, tubes, and cylindrical heishi.
The necklace up for grabs is the new lapis lazuli necklace, made from the brilliant blue lapis lazuli stone. It's raw and understated with beautiful little flecks of gold. The stone is centered between 2 angular raw brass bars and strung on a rustic steel chain.
Enter the giveaway below before Sunday, January 19 at midnight EST. All countries are welcome to enter (US and International). The winner will be announced on Monday, January 20th via email and here on the blog.
a Rafflecopter giveaway
The new collection is back to basics pairing rustic metals like raw brass and muted steel with vibrant stones and beads. The goal with these necklaces was to create jewelry that works day to day, but has a little more character than your average minimal necklace. Something that would transition well from day to night, in the office and heading out for after work fun. You can see the entire boho necklace collection.

The meaning of an advertisement
Commonweal February 11, 2013 - 10:44am
Bad Ad
In your January 11, 2013, issue, you ran an advertisement for a film produced by Catholics for Choice. Why would you publish something promoting an anti-Catholic, proabortion movie? I know it makes Commonweal appear broad-minded, but many practicing Catholics think it makes you look foolish, and that printing such an ad is disrespectful to sincere Catholics.

Compared to Copenhagen which is much more compact and clustered with bikers, shops, and pedestrians.

I was in awe of all the antique buildings painted different colors with such details on the trim and windows. It reminded me ...

If g### is calling things by different names in different places-- you're in Spain, right? --I think we would all like to hear about it.
I just took another quick look on the way to checking something else in wmt. Detour to non-canonical form of site name reveals fascinatingly that Total Indexed is the same number both ways-- but "blocked by robots.txt" is zero on the non-canonical side.

Genealogy has been a big part of our lives for the last several years. We are as far back as we can go in our family without some very large break through, so we have decided to devote some time to finding the final resting place of as many of our ancestors as possible.
Thanks to Findagrave we are making some progress. Now on our trips, we always check for photo requests in the area and are trying to give as many photos as we receive. We also try to take photos of as many old or unique headstones as possible. We see too many old headstones that are unreadable or partially destroyed, we want to do our part to save in pictures as many as we can.
Please report any errors we post (we want to be as correct as possible).
Researching: The Tabor Connection,The Jett Connection,The Hair Connection,The Rattray Connection, Rich/Wagner Connection.

Rance Ferguson Jett
Rance Ferguson Jett was my grandfather, although he died long before I was born in 1952 to his youngest daughter Winnie, who was the 5th of 5 children born between 1900 and 1910 to him and Emma Booth Jett. I grew up in Sour Lake, just a few miles from the cemetery where this gravestone is located, and where other Jett descendants are buried. I scrolled through several pages of messages and didn't see any reference to this family of his. I knew he had at least one other family prior to the one I descend from, presumably the children whose names are listed on this post with the gravestone picture.
I found this site by googling his name when the question came up, was his name Rance or Ransom. If anyone has any questions about my side of Rance Jett's family, feel free to email me at email@example.com. Now that we are "retired", my brother Byrne and I are interested in finding out more about our family, and this one thread appears to be a treasure trove! We will be looking at it in detail. Thanks!!

Unfortunately, I know nothing about this child or family. I inherited this memorial. If you have any other information about when this child died, I'll be more than happy to edit the death date.

Thank you
Bob and Kathy,
thanks so much for adding the info on all the graves. You really do not need to credit me for the information. When I first started adding to this web-site, linking was not a service, so I ended up typing a LOT about children and spouses. Linking helps save time and allows researchers to open (sorry for the pun) a grave and find information on an entire family. I can link any parent to a child I listed, but can't add kids I didn't list to their parents. Because of that, I have met so many other genealogy and grave yard junkies who love helping each other.
If you ever see a grave with my name as manager, and you are related to them, ask - 90% of requests to transfer are honored, the ones I usually want to keep are those who are direct relatives of mine. But even then, if they are your great- great- grandparent, and my cousin, I will usually send it on to you.
May God bless your home this Thanksgiving. I will be remembering all these families that I have listed and all the new folks I have met, helped and been helped by.

Gameday 60 - Blackhawks
3:30 pm
United Center
The defending Stanley Cup champion Chicago Blackhawks currently sit four points out of the playoffs. They're 3-5-2 in their last ten games. Every one of their games from now until the end of the season is a playoff game for them, so they're going to play like a desperate hockey team. The Penguins will have to match that intensity today.
Matt Cooke.
Know your enemy: Blackhawks Down Low
The first line certainly came to play and they played extremely well. We're lacking that kind of effort and world beating from the other lines. Granted, the fourth line, appearing once per period, will have a harder time making an impact, but I don't see the same fire as the first line. The physical effort seems to be there, but the mental I WILL NOT LOSE TO YOU state doesn't seem to be there for more than 4-5 players and that won't cut it. Time for ALL of us to realize, this team very possibly could not be a playoff team.
Season series: N/A
Last meeting: December 5th, 2009 - Blackhawks Won 2-1 [OT]
What we said in our recap:
First off, having Crosby in this game probably would not have made a difference. More than two-thirds of NHL teams don't have a Malkin or Crosby, let alone two of them. Complaining the Pens were missing one of their superstars means you're a whiny bitch. Blackhawks goalie Antfarm was lights out. It took the Pens having 6 guys on the ice and an unconventional faceoff setup to even tie the game. If antfarm didn't do coke before the game, the Pens win this one skating away.
Just think what a Pens-Blackhawks SCF would be like. The last two seasons, the Pens have gotten to the Finals and essentially had to play down to Detroit's boring game. That's not to say the past two Finals haven't been exciting, but Pens-Blackhawks would be edge-of-your-seat hockey every minute of every game.
"Complaining the Pens were missing one of their superstars means you're a whiny bitch."
Oh... damn.
Oh... damn.
Penguins notes:
Don Cherry still hates Mario Lemieux.
Tim Wallace has been called up.
Blackhawks notes:
Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville has been released from hospital and is recovering at home.
Patrick Kane says he's not partying too much.
Line production the last 10 games: Penguins | Blackhawks
The highest-scoring Pens line in the last 10 regular season games is Kennedy-Staal-Sterling with four points. Wow.

Kalbitzer, Hans Robert and Stehlik, D. (1979) On the analysis of competitive binding of various ligands to cooperative and independent binding sites of macromolecules. Zeitschrift für Naturforschung. Section C: Biosciences 34 (9-10), pp. 757-769.
Full text not available from this repository.
The paper deals with the practical evaluation of multiple binding equilibria of macromolecules and different ligands competing for the same binding sites. The necessary formalism is reviewed and set up for the equilibria involving a macromolecule with various classes of independent binding sites and/or a class of cooperative sites and up to three different ligands in competition for them. In particular, it was necessary to extend the Hill approximation to treat simultaneous competition for cooperative as well as independent binding sites, while earlier attempts are shown to be inadequate. Criteria are developed for a qualitative analysis of complex binding patterns using the Scatchard-plot of the experimental data in order to obtain a model of the binding structure and an adequate set of input parameters for the numerical analysis. Numerical examples refer to the binding of calcium and magnesium to the sarcoplasmic reticulum as studied by competitive replacement of manganese ions [3].

Dubuque Manufacturers Looking for WorkersBy Katie Wiedemann, Reporter
DUBUQUE, Iowa - Many people looking for work in Dubuque say there are no jobs out there. Manufacturers there say they have lots of jobs, but no skilled workers to fill vacant positions. Educators say there's a disconnect between the unemployed and employers looking to hire.
There's a lot of work to be done at Giese Manufacturing. Workers are trying to keep up, but managers say they need more employees. "There's a shortage of those employees right now," said Giese Manufacturing's Greg Kubitz. Clint Sharkey recently lost his job after a Dubuque warehouse moved out of state. Now he's on the prowl for a new position. "Eighteen years at a warehouse...you don't use the skills that they're looking for now," Sharkey said. Sharkey is taking classes at Northeast Iowa Community College to learn those needed skills. Manufacturing employers say that's exactly what people like Sharkey should do. "We are looking for employees with skills in C.N.C machines, also running a press breaker," Kubitz said. Some employers believe the worker shortage has a lot to do with the desire to earn a four year college degree. "There's always a big push after high school to go to college and then the trades get left behind," Kubitz said. They say now is the time to fill that employment gap. About 20 students are enrolled in Northeast Iowa Community College's free C.N.C training program. It aims to help unemployed workers gain the skills needed to work at many of Dubuque's manufacturing companies. "The jobs are out there, you just gotta go find them," Sharkey said.
