From the Publisher
"[Chapter 1 is] Brilliant! Finally, someone understands the need to provide talking points for educational leadership candidates so they may hold educated conversations with their politicians and school community.""I enjoyed reading "Public School Finance." I like the authors' straightforward, informal approach to the teaching of school finance. Moreover, [they go] to great pains to make it interesting! What a change from most textbooks. [The authors] bring in enough data and introduce sufficient controversial topics to provide the basis for lively classroom discussion."
"The case studies are excellent. I have searched for school finance case studies to supplement the texts I have used and have come up short. My overall impression of the text is one of great enthusiasm. In the 14 years I have taught school finance courses, this is the first time I have read a text that was written in common sense language with school leadership emphasized. YES - I would definitely adopt this text as soon as it is available. I am teaching the finance course this spring and wish that it were available right now!!"
"I especially value the cases at the end of each chapter because I strive to have this finance course be as applied (e.g., experiential) as possible. This text offers a logical sequence of topics. Provides essential background knowledge for understanding school finance, affording a platform on which I can implement skill-based instruction relevant to the role of principals and supervisors in the state. Throughout, the writing style is fast-paced and easily read - a real bonus for a text on school finance. ..I would adopt this text for my course."

Editor's note: The due date for nominating petitions has been corrected in this story.
A veteran Brown County politician is contemplating which office to run for this year.
State Rep. Paul Dennert, D-Aberdeen, said he will either run for Brown County Commission or the District 3 senate seat.
Dennert has served in the Legislature for the past 20 years. Because of term limits, he cannot run for re-election as a member of the House of Representatives. And were he to run for senate in District 3, he would have to change his address.
Through the upcoming legislative session, Dennert will continue to represent District 2, which includes part of Aberdeen, most of rural Brown County and Spink County. However, new district boundaries have been approved as they are after every census. As the result of redistricting, Dennert lives in District 1, which includes northern Brown County and Day, Marshall and Roberts counties. The new District 3 includes most of Aberdeen.
The new District 2 includes much of rural Brown County, most of Spink County and Clark and Hamlin counties.
To run in new District 3, Dennert would have to get an Aberdeen address and register to vote at that address. The address can't be a post office box. Now 74, Dennert said he and his wife have contemplated moving to Aberdeen, but don't have specific plans to do so.
Dennert admits that getting an Aberdeen address to challenge Sen. Al Novstrup, R-Aberdeen, in District 3 would be a political move. But, he said, it wouldn't be any more political than the way the new legislative boundaries were drawn to include five incumbent Democrats in the new District 1. He said he knows that, should he run in District 3, he will likely be criticized by Republicans. But he doesn't think it would be improper.
Because they hold majorities in both the Senate and House, state Republicans controlled last year's redistricting process.
Dennert said he will not challenge incumbent Sen. Jason Frerichs, a fellow Democrat from Wilmot, in a primary for the new District 1.
Burt Elliott, a Democrat from Aberdeen, has announced he will not seek re-election to the Brown County Commission, so there will be at least one opening on the board.
Candidates can take out and circulate nominating petitions for more than one office, but can only submit one. The deadline for petitions is March 27.

Wore it for about a month really loved the natural smooth matte look blends very well no streeky lines when applying with brush after a month it started to noticeably dry my skin out to the point I had to stop using it as my everyday make up. still use sometimes when I just want light coverage.

I have a lot of acne scars from a previous breakout from MAC that i really want to cover. This noon I ran to Sephora to get the Make Up Forever Matte something Foundation and had it color tested on me. I didn't like the coverage so another SA intervened and gave me this. She tried it on me together with the Givenchy Mister Matte primer and Teint Couture. After putting my make up I was kinda happy about it but I was sure it's gonna melt off like the previous products I tried like YSL Youth Liberator Serum Foundation, Chanel Matte Lumiere and Estee Lauder Maximum Coverage. Oh boy was I mistaken! I did errands and at 9PM i was still "matte"! Not only did it cover my imperfections but it was true to its name. So happy I found my holy grail! I can say this is by far the best foundation I have ever tried! The only reason I gave it 4 lippies is because it is expensive but the packaging is a simple plastic unlike YSL in that luxurious, pretty bottle.

I really like this foundation, comes closest to my HG foundation up to date ( I'm really picky). In the summer, I'm normally between NC 25-NC 30 so I got number 5 honey which matches my skin. It is definitely matte and wears for a long time. My only complaint is that although the packaging is cute, I'm starting to have problem with the bottle squirting the product all over the place. I will repurchase soon.

This foundation is great I love that the consistency is a liquid and not thick like other matte foundations. This is more of a medium to full coverage foundation and it leaves a nice glowing without the shine finish. It's just amazing it looks flawless on I'm very happy with this product and recommend it to everyone except if you're allergic to fragrances or if you think you have sensitive skin don't try this because the fragrance might bother your skin. Other than that this lasts all day long I didn't need to touch up or blot at all. I'm really pleased love this.

my friend gave me this foundation as she did not like it. i was a fan but would not rush out and buy it again although i would in the future if i fancied a change from my smashbox 15 hour which is my hg.
the product was quite runny in consistency and the pump made it a difficult to dispense. due to the design of the packaging it also got pretty messy and there was no way to get the remainder of the product out when nearing the bottom of the container.
other than that the product was really nice. it blended beautifully and stayed put all day long without becoming shiny on my oily t zone. it din't dry out my chin which can be an issue for me.
it minimised my pores and did not make my skin break out. it felt luxurious on my skin with a velvety texture.
great product but the packaging, although it looks good, let's it down practicality wise.

Love it due to staying power. Stays on way longer than chanel's vitalumiere aqua and even chanel's perfection lumiere. Bare in mind I have super oily skin. It provides a satin finish (not as matte as perfection lumiere, much more than vitalumiere aqua which is dewy) but this is not a dewy foundation. I am amazed with staying power so I will buy this again even though the coverage isn't quite what I need as I have large pores in my t-zone. Therefore, I use this all over and for extra cover add some perfection lumiere to my nose and cheeks. I love perfection lumiere but the staying power isn't great on me. With this even though I am still oily by midday the foundation is on my face still unlike with the chanel which would slide off especially if I blot my face. This stays pretty much put. I do have to dust on powder to get it completely matte (I don't need to with perfection lumiere). Lastly, I don't like that I can't control the squirt with the pump. I have to squirt out the full pump as opposed to half a pump at a time. Other than that I love the packaging. A bottle of this lasts me 6 months used pretty much every day. On me sand is too light and beige a bit dark and I have fair skin but with a slight tan atm. The average fair skinned person without a tan is sand. With a significant tan i'd say beige. This is scented but it isn't strong and you can't smell it once applied. SPF 20 (titanium dioxide).

Age: 19-24 Skin: Oily, Fair-Medium, Warm Hair: Black Eyes: Brown
I decided to try this product because I heard it was good for oily skin. I also heard the same thing about Teint Couture Long-Wearing Fluid Foundation. I tested both on the same day and found them to be extremely similar, so I will be writing one review for both.
Eclat Matissime (also known as Fluid Foundation Airy-Light Mat Radiance, whew!) has SPF 20, PA++ and Teint Couture has SPF 20, broad spectrum. I'm glad the SPF isn't as low as others (like 15... or 8!) but my rule of thumb is never to rely on foundation for sun protection.
Eclat Matissime comes with 1 oz. of product and costs $51, whereas Teint Couture comes with 0.8 oz. and costs $49. (Seriously, Teint Couture? Smh.)
The first thing I noticed was that the shade selections weren't in my favor because the colors for both foundations seem to have mostly pink or beige undertones. Still, I went with 4 Mat Beige for Matissime and Elegant Beige 4 for Teint Couture because they looked like okay matches, though they were the wrong undertone and also a bit on the light side. (Since I was more interested in trying out the formulas, I didn't mind that I wasn't getting a great match.)
As for how the colors compare to each other, they look very similar swatched and are pretty much identical on the face. I wore one on each side without any issues.
When Test Day came around, I saw that the shades weren't quite the matches I thought they would be. Upon first application, they definitely looked like they would be better suited for an NC20. And then after a minute or two, the foundations deepened -- darker, and more beige. For reference, I don't usually find that I have an issue with foundations oxidizing on me. However, these two definitely changed color, so much so that I feel they would be better suited for an NW25. If you get a chance to swatch instore, give the product a minute to dry down and judge the shade then.
As for consistency, both formulas feel the same: not thick, but more on the thick side than the runny side. Still, the formulas feel pretty thin, as if they have a lot of alcohol in them. (I'll get to more on this later.) The consistency of the foundations allows them to blend in very easily, and also dry down quickly (and actually dry down).
Coverage was a positive, as both offer up to medium. I have a good amount of post-acne hyperpigmentation but I find that I am comfortable skipping the concealer when I use these products, even if they don't cover stubborn scars. One layer offers light coverage, but it is easy to build (or sheer out) the formulas, and I never looked cakey.
Speaking of cakey, I was pleased with the finish of these foundations, as it was smooth and flawless, and never made me look too made-up. Personally, I thought both were on the satin-matte side, but I did see what people refer to as an "inner glow" when speaking about Eclat Matissime. Except I thought it looked more like an "inner shine." I wasn't oily when I was applying my make-up, but I did see a shine under the foundation, as if I had on a strong SPF moisturizer underneath. This wasn't anything that bothered me, however. I just thought I'd mention it because I remember seeing some people saying this was a dewy foundation for oily skin, but I don't really see that.
Back to the consistency of the foundations: Liked I mentioned, they are thick but feel thin, as if the formulas have a lot of alcohol. And they do.
I immediately realized this when I started spreading the foundations around my face. I actually remember thinking to myself, "Wow, this blends in so quickly. Reminds me of--"
Yeah. Reminds me of Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua, which has tons of alcohol in it :(
Now, I just to want to clear up a few things. First, the two Givenchy foundations are not as thin as the Chanel VA, though Eclat Matissime does instruct you to shake the bottle. Second, I know some people have no issues with alcohol, whatever their skin type. Third, I know alcohol comes in various forms, moisturizing and otherwise, but my skin has trouble with straight-up alcohol. That is, "alcohol," "denatured alcohol," "SD alcohol," etc. -- particularly when it shows up high on the ingredient list.
Upon realizing what I had just applied, I quickly pulled up the ingredients for both foundations and lo and behold: le alcohol, fourth on the lists. Not long after, I began to feel the effects of tight, uncomfortable skin, which I have experienced one too many times with an alcohol-laden formula.
As for oil control and lasting power, the foundations did an okay job (I did use primer and powder). Oil control not quite as well, since my T-zone got shiny pretty quickly -- after less than an hour. The rest of my face, especially the outer areas, did better, staying matte for longer. Lasting power, though, was superior. Even though my T-zone got oily rather soon, my make-up lasted all right, fading after about five hours. I was disappointed with the lasting power, but I did appreciate that the foundations did not fade patchy/cakey/some other unattractive way.
Overall, I won't be purchasing these foundations because they are not suitable for my skin -- too much alcohol for my dehydration, and not enough oil control for my oiliness. And again, just to be clear, my issues with alcohol are just that -- my issues :)

I am 15 and have normal teenage skin. When it comes to foundations I am extremly picky! I have minor breakouts that i pick all the time (can't help myself) and therefore become red so this covers redness very well in my opinion. I have normaly dry skin but when I apply foundation in general l get a little oily so my face looks nice and dewy which I like, and have also experienced with this foundation (if you have extremly dry skin mouisturize before-I don't). In the winter shade 2 is perfect, now that it is summer shade 5 also matches me very well. The fregrance is nice and doesn't make me breakout. Looks very natural and it stays on the whole entire day without a primer or setting powder. The only bad thing I have noticed with the first one I bought is that the pump broke after a while but with my second one I don't have that problem. Hope this helps!

perfect foundation! I have it in number 4 and I'm NC25, just perfect. That lit from within w/o the greasy UD Naked, Chanel Vita., Dior Nude or the cakeiness. Now this is pretty sheer, you could layer it up but I'd rather have a sheer fdtn for sheer fdt, med for med, etc. But I do believe you should wear as little coveage as you can get away with or guys say we wear "fakeup". It looks bad, a lot of fdtn, so this is really great. For all skin types but if you are really dry then you will need a seperate mositurizer. I tried them all, the "lit from w/i" i.e. YSL TE, and the above and this was the best - too bad it gets very little love on MUA as I am picky and could not be happier.
PS: i always go back to this as it stays on like iron with HG primer and a spritz of skindivinia spray. I'm so tired of m/u sliding off.

I have normal to combination skin with few blemishes, just some skin redness and unevenness on the cheeks. I got this in shade 4 (NC25) and it's a good match. I like the natural finish it leaves, not extremely mat, but definitely not dewey either. It can feel a bit tight when I first apply it in the morning, but settles nicely into my face and is very long lasting on me. I do not need to powder this foundation to set it. Coverage is sheer to medium. I usually apply 2 layers, leaving the first to set before reapplying on the cheeks to cover redness. It layers well to increase coverage and you never get a mask look. I wouldn't recommend this for people requiring a lot of coverage however as two layers gives me a medium finish. One downside is that I use up a lot of product compared to other foundations where one layer is usually enough. The packaging is convenient for travelling, but you cannot see how much you've used up, and the pump dispenses a strange amount. I always end up wasting half a pump, because I need 1 and a half pumps for my face. I would consider repurchasing as I have never found another foundation with the same finish. It is expensive for a foundation but if I ever find it on sale I would get a back up.

Comments about Guess GU1211 Bronze:
I take my glasses very seriously, as I'm a full time wearer with a pretty high prescription (near sighted with astigmatism). I like retro looks, so I fell for these subtle cat-eye frames in bronze. When I got them, I realized that they are actually double framed (lenses are mounted in a frame behind the front frame) and are more light weight than I anticipated. I might have hesitated to order them had I known this, but the gold package high index lenses fit well in the frames. I don't notice a lot of edge, even though I have a high prescription. I'll see how they hold up, but right now I'm happier with the light weight, unless it proves to be delicate. The ear length is longer than average. I will have to have them adjusted, but the nose pads fit well. I have a narrow face, kind of close set eyes. These glasses are definitely for people with narrow faces. If you've never had a pair of 48mm glasses before, definitely try on. They fit me perfectly, but they may not for you.

There's no question in the mind of agronomist Charles "Gregg" Carlson, of South Dakota State University, that precision agriculture is the future of South Dakota.
At the turn of the 20th century, Carlson said, workers were being taught how to run and service internal combustion motors and steam engines.
America and South Dakota need to do a better job training the farm technicians of the future, believes Carlson, who teaches precision farming agronomy at SDSU.
"Today, the future of America is CNC technology, or computerized numerical controls -- running all kinds of different machinery with a computer.
"It's what Caterpillar, John Deere and other companies do incredibly well because they have two things: outstanding management and geeks who understood the future."
"People need to understand that we have jobs in South Dakota because the economy is doing well, and that's because of high commodity prices and production agriculture."
Technology has allowed South Dakotans to convert grain surpluses into ethanol, which has for the first time tied the price of grain to the price of fuel, said Carlson,
"This has been an incredible boon to the economy of South Dakota," he said.
It has also driven farmers to seek even greater productivity, but that can't be accomplished without more and better technology.
Darin Maltsberger, instructor in the farm power division at Mitchell Technical Institute, is in full agreement with Carlson, and he thinks MTI is doing what it can to prepare a workforce to fill the technology skills gap.
"There's a need in the ag equipment industry for workers who can service the new technology," Maltsberger said.
"The old hands are retiring. Ten years ago, we'd use a toolbox and take a tractor or combine apart. Today we plug in a laptop to fix things."
Maltsberger, who described himself as an "old farmer," said his division has 12 students and another 25 signed up for next year.
Evan Eidem, who teaches precision technology at MTI, said CNC technology is a little advanced for his students, who are being trained to install and service complex technology such as the global positioning satellite (GPS) guidance equipment that come standard with today's farm machinery.
Carlson said precision ag has allowed South Dakota, which has 14 to 26 inches of annual rainfall a year, to be competitive with states like neighboring Iowa, which has an annual rainfall of 28 to 38 inches.
"Our cereal grain production will have to double in 10 years to allow us to feed the world's people," Maltsberger said, "and most of that extra production will come by making better use of what we have."
At MTI, students learn how to program and service equipment such as variable-rate drives for seeders and fertilizers, he said.
"This equipment will vary seeding and fertilization rates based on soil quality and the site's particular geography."
Many students at MTI are comfortable with computers, Maltsberger said. They were brought up on computer games and do well programming seeding and fertilizer "prescriptions" for fertilizing and seeding equipment.
Maltsberger said that proprietary farm management software like Apex, which is sold by John Deere, can be used to map fields.
"It gives you a record of where you planted what," he said. The planting and harvest information can be used to create detailed financial records.
"It shows students a new way of thinking and creating management tools for the future of production agriculture," he said.

Saw and photographed 4 Swallows at their usual mid Spring hang out, Central and San Mateo. I think that perhaps the evening lights attract bugs for them, and the birds also may grab bugs from car grills. Then I saw a single Swallow as my Central bus crossed through the intersection at University Bvld; the birds like to rest on telephone wires. It's nice to see these summer daredevils. I'll watch for them west of The Frontier (south of Central on Cornell) as well as over the ditch to the northeast of Tingley Beach. Also on Thursday (May 09) I saw a Western Tanager on south Harvard; it was eating seeds high in a tree.
Kingbirds are definitely back in town. Saw one at about 8th and Coal this morning, then later another (or the same one?) near the fire station at 8th and Silver (the birds have liked that area over the years). One was in a tree near my front door. He would sing, then I would hear an identical song from the one near the firestation. Maybe they're in the same family group and learned the same song from their parents. I'm glad I figured out how to take movies with my camera, so I can get that cheerful song as well.
I saw my first barn swallows this morning (April 22 in Bosque Farms, just s. of Albuq), a pair sitting on a utility wire in front of my house and heirs apparent (maybe the same birds) of the nest under my front porch. These are my favorite birds alongside hummers and one or two others. I'd watch them fly for hours if I had the time, especially when the little ones are emerging from the nest.It's neat to look at their migration patterns on the net (check it out) -- all seem to winter in South America to the tip of Argentina and all seem to be in North America from the middle of Mexico into Canada during our summer. I get a lot of them because there is a drainage ditch right behind my house and they skim back and forth a foot off the surface whenever insects are swarming.
No hummingbirds that I've seen yet downtown or on south Yale, though I have feeders ready. Today, Saturday, April 6, about 3pm, I think I saw a female Kingbird. She was somewhat dull colored but had a yellowish lower belly. I got lots of pics of her but she was far away. She had a two-note call "chi-keer", kind of. I got the impression she was calling others to join her. I have no idea what she's eating as I haven't seen any flying bugs yet other than bees and wasps.
I have not seen any on my feeders at my house.
Does anyone have any hummingbirds yet?

Q. What causes some sliced deli meats to possess an iridescent sheen? On occasion, a slice of ham or beef will exhibit the sort of rainbow spot one might see on an oil slick or the inside of a seashell. Why?
A. It's because of the particular way light bounces off the surface of the deli meat, a phenomenon known as "diffraction." A piece of meat is composed of strands of fibers that are tightly packed together in parallel bundles. After meat is sliced, the cut ends of the fibers form a series of grooves, like the top of a picket fence. White light is composed of a spectrum of different colors, and each one of those colors has a specific wavelength. When white light hits the grooves on the surface of a deli meat slice, some of the light is absorbed and some of it is reflected. Each component color wave of the reflected light bends at a different angle depending on its particular frequency. The result of this spread of color waves is a kaleidoscope or iridescent effect, similar to the colors we see in soap bubbles, CDs and fish scales.
Diffraction depends on the grooves being structurally intact and perfectly aligned. This is why you're much more likely to see this rainbow effect on processed deli meat that's cooked and/or cured than on raw meat. The former has a firmer, tougher texture and the picket fence structure keeps its shape well when deli meats are sliced. Raw meat, on the other hand, is softer and more delicate, and the ends of the meat fibers are easily damaged when the meat is cut, which means that light is reflected in a haphazard way that doesn't result in rainbows.
So why do some deli meats shimmer while others remain dull? The color of the meat matters. Dark cooked meat like roast beef and bright cured meat like ham are more likely to show iridescence because the background colors provide a starker contrast to the pearly greens and orangey reds that you're most likely to see coming off of shiny meats. Turkey and chicken are too pale to showcase such sparkle. It also matters whether the deli product contains ground or "restructured" meat (in which chopped meat is molded together) or is composed of a single piece of muscle. In the former case, the jumbled up meat fibers are no longer aligned correctly to diffract light.
The way a joint of meat is sliced at the deli counter or before being pre-packaged is also paramount. Only cuts that are sliced against the grain, or perpendicular to the direction of the meat fibers, show iridescence, since the protruding severed ends of the fibers produce the fine grooves. (For beef, these cuts are brisket, which is used for corned beef, and top round, used for pastrami, and navel, used for roast beef.) The sharpness of the blade with which the meat is sliced makes a difference, too. The sharper the slicing instrument, the cleaner the cut, the smoother the surface, and the more intense the display of rainbow hues. Blunt knives produce rough surfaces; the picket fence grooves will be too disrupted to produce iridescence.
The commercial curing process can cause sliced deli meats to have an especially smooth surface, which is why you sometimes see dazzling rainbows on cured hams. Cured meats are first injected with a brine or marinade and then tumbled in revolving metal drums to allow the brine to penetrate evenly throughout the meat. This process causes proteins to seep out from cells and fill gaps between muscle fibers, creating an even, consistent texture that's more likely to diffract light when sliced.
Fat content also has an impact on the light-reflecting properties of meat: A particularly fatty cut of meat is unlikely to diffract light. A slice of roast beef that's richly and evenly marbled with fat won't shine. Fat is either liquid (at room temperature) or semi-crystalline (when chilled), and neither of these states possess the right grooved structure to create a rainbow sheen.
Since diffraction is a purely physical phenomenon and has nothing to do with microbial growth, iridescent deli meat poses absolutely no safety risk, nor does it have any effect on taste. But this might not always be the case with raw meat, which can occasionally exhibit iridescence. Raw meats are more prone to bacterial contamination, and a colorful glow could be caused by light reflecting off a surface film of liquid produced by microbes. To determine whether your iridescent raw meat is unsafe, lightly wipe the surface of the meat with a paper towel. If the sheen disappears, then the meat is likely harboring slime-producing microbes, and you should discard it.

This Cat Did Not Figure Out How Mirrors Work
It's cute! But not a major step forward for feline cognition.
Earlier today, Gawker posted a video of a housecat looking at itself in a mirror, slowly raising one paw and looking with wonder at its own reflection. "Smart cat figures out how mirrors work," reads the headline. Let's delve very deeply into a minute-long YouTube clip of a cat doing something weird!
Mirrors are used in cognitive science in a task called the "mirror self-awareness test," or MSR test. It's a controversial experiment, developed back in 1970 by a University of Albany psychologist named Gordon Gallup who later wrote a scholarly article called "Does Semen Have Antidepressant Properties?" The MSR test requires that an animal be given some kind of visual oddity, usually a dot or two of color, on a part of their body only visible through a mirror (often on a part of the face or head). If the animal (or human!) sees their reflection in the mirror and attempts to touch the part of their own body with the unfamiliar dot of color, that animal is judged to have demonstrated mirror self-awareness.
Very few animals pass this test. All of the great apes--humans, chimpanzees, bonobos, gorillas, and orangutans--pass, as do some cetaceans like bottlenose dolphins and orcas (killer whales), and a few oddballs like the elephant and magpie. Some other animals demonstrate partial self-awareness--gibbons and some macaques, for example, will sometimes become confused and gesture at their faces, which does not constitute a pass of the test but does indicate that they understand that something odd is going on. A few monkey species, pigs, and corvids (crows, ravens, jays) demonstrate a similar partial understanding of the self.
Humans, interestingly, change in their perception of themselves; before the age of about 18 months, humans have either no or only partial success in the MSR test. Before 18 months, they'll react with curiosity or avoidance.
Cats have never once demonstrated that they have any sense of self at all. Reactions of cats to being shown their reflection in a mirror vary; some will ignore the reflection, some will attempt to investigate behind the mirror to find the cat that is presumably back there, some will act wary or aggressive towards what appears to be another cat able to counteract its own gestures perfectly. This is a freaky thing, if you don't know that it's you in the mirror.
The cat in this video is behaving defensively, with the "anxious" posture laid out in this helpful chart of feline body language. Notice that its ears face entirely toward the "threat," that its tail is puffed up and often pointing downwards--these are cat signals that mean "defensive aggression." Its attack posture is kind of...not very threatening, moving slowly and warily like that, but it's still quite clear why it's acting the way it's acting. It's not waving at itself, it's gesturing threateningly at the scary cat staring out at it from a few feet away.
The mirror test is controversial in the psychology field; there's the problem of children or animals not caring that there's a spot on their faces, and so providing a false negative result when they don't bother to clean it. It's also been theorized that the test is unfair for animals that rely more on other senses than sight. The domestic dog, for example, relies much more heavily on smell than sight.
There's also the more philosophical problem of, what does this actually even say? Really, the only thing that it proves is the ability to recognize one's self in a mirror. This paper argues that you can't really extend success in the MSR test to represent full self-awareness.
Sorry, wary waving tuxedo cat. You still haven't demonstrated self-awareness. But you are very cute.
cats are like people, theres smart ones that make you understand things, opening doors... and not so much... but we still love them ^^
who needs evolution when you sleep 70% of you lifetime and getting free food? ^^
No facts, No response...
The cat might not have understood that it was looking at itself in the mirror but it does at least have the ability to recognize there is something being displayed in the mirror. I'd like to know more about why some cats may 'ignore' the mirror while others clearly know something is up.
as every kitten that i owned reacted to the mirror i can only assume that the grown ups who do not react to it are simply not seeing any threat in that flat invisible surface...
again its like YT trolls, everyone reacts to them differently, some get made, some just ignore them
why should other species be any different from us?
No facts, No response...
That's a good point, I was thinking there would be some complex psychological meaning behind different cats doing different things but I like your view of it.
It makes perfect sense really, I used to get so annoyed with the bots posting spam on PopSci but now I just completely ignore them!
killerqpid and yet my cat looks at the TV or laptop then quickly looks behind the TV or laptop to find out where the stuff is coming from, and when i hold him in front of a mirror and sneak my hand up behind him he turns back and looks at my hand like he knows its his reflection ,he is 14yrs ,some cats are just smarter i guess lol cats
Disagree with author characterization that cat's use of paw is a "threat" gesture. That particular behaviour (attempting to touch mirror with paw) is not in the chart that author uses to justify his explanation. Note that the cat is not showing its claws, hissing, or showing contorted facial expressions that typically accompany cat behaviour when it has perceived a threat. Rather, it is showing a behaviour set that is simply not yet defined in the "cat chart": curiosity.

I'm cluthching my stomach and looking for the nearest exit just thinking about it!!!
But for the tougher bellied of us - sounds like a great idea!
Surely someone has put forth this idea before, but I'm too lazy to search for it. How about mixing the uber-cool polarized lens 3D technology from Magic Journeys and Captain EO and so forth with the Circle Vision 360 format? You'd, I'm sure, have to divorce yourself at least a little bit from the original intended uses of both formats, but I'll bet you could come up with some interesting stuff.
Just a random thought that occurred to me while bored at work...

Yeah, there'd be falling, I'm sure. Some theater modifications would be in order (swivel stools?)
Cool idea. I think people would probably knock into each other.

UW-Parkside student advances to a new career
By Samantha Savaglio
After serving as an intern with University Advancement at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside for nearly a year, Adam Nelson is now venturing out into the community, utilizing his degree in Computer Science. He is newly employed as the web developer at Jockey International's Kenosha headquarters.
As an intern, he gained experience in database and web development.
"I learned how University Advancement works?and the people were fantastic!" he commented.
Although he had received more than one job offer, Nelson choose Jockey based on his own desires.
"This job is more aligned with what I wanted to do and it's in town, which is nice."
His advice to students soon entering the work force: Keep putting yourself out there! He encourages students to utilize all the resources the university offers?job sites, workshops, and networking?all provide students with the skills they need to prosper in their fields of study.
"It's OK to depend on others for assistance. It gives you a good insight," he said.
Nelson looks back fondly on his time at UW-Parkside.
"I appreciated the class and student body size. It allowed faculty to focus more on individual students," Nelson said.
He also highlighted the importance of working as part of a team, which is required of him at Jockey. The group work he participated in at UW-Parkside allowed him to have this upper-hand.
With the education he received from UW-Parkside and the experience he gained with University Advancement, Nelson demonstrates how, despite economic conditions, graduates can?and do?find careers that not only benefit them, but their communities as well.

Country Roads
Before Paris fashion week the boyfriend and I went to have a family meal in celebration for his and his fathers Birthday (they are only a day or so apart). The boyfriend thought that near the pub there might be a nice area to take some photos but it ended up just basically being country roads! So we parked up and made the most out of what we had. Weather wise, the sun was shining and at times it was even warm enough to take the faux fur off. Hopefully this means Spring may just arrive on time this year!
I hope you are all looking forward to your weekend, after the week i've had, I am certainly ready to try and have a relaxing one.
Take care,
Daniella xox

A 32 s breathing pause in a sleep apnea patient
Apnea, apnoea, or apnœa (Greek: ἄπνοια, from ἀ-, privative, πνέειν, to breathe) is a term for suspension of external breathing. During apnea, there is no movement of the muscles of respiration and the volume of the lungs initially remains unchanged. Depending on the patency of the airways, there may or may not be a flow of gas between the lungs and the environment; gas exchange within the lungs and cellular respiration are not affected.
Apnea can be voluntarily achieved, drug-induced (such as opiate toxicity or tryptamine toxicity), mechanically induced (for example, by strangulation or choking), or it can occur as a consequence of neurological disease or trauma. During sleep in patients who are suffering from sleep apnea, these events will occur up to 20-30 times per hour, every night.
Voluntary apnea can be achieved by closing the vocal cords, simultaneously keeping the mouth closed and blocking the nasal vestibule, or constantly activating expiratory muscles.
Under normal conditions, humans cannot store much oxygen in the body. Prolonged apnea leads to severe lack of oxygen in the blood circulation. Permanent brain damage can occur after as little as three minutes and death will inevitably ensue after a few more minutes unless ventilation is restored. However, under special circumstances such as hypothermia, hyperbaric oxygenation, apneic oxygenation (see below), or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, much longer periods of apnea may be tolerated without severe consequences.
Untrained humans cannot sustain voluntary apnea for more than one or two minutes[citation needed]. The reason for the time limit of voluntary apnea is that the rate of breathing and the volume of each breath are tightly regulated to maintain constant values of CO2 tension and pH of the blood. In apnea, CO2 is not removed through the lungs and accumulates in the blood. The consequent rise in CO2 tension and drop in pH result in stimulation of the respiratory centre in the brain which eventually cannot be overcome voluntarily.
When a person is immersed in water, physiological changes due to the mammalian diving reflex enable somewhat longer tolerance of apnea even in untrained persons. Tolerance can in addition be trained. The ancient technique of free-diving requires breath-holding, and world-class free-divers can hold their breath underwater up to depths of 214 metres and for more than four minutes.[1] Apneists, in this context, are people who can hold their breath for a long time.
Voluntary hyperventilation before beginning voluntary apnea is commonly believed to allow the person involved to safely hold their breath for a longer period. In reality, it will give the impression that one does not need to breathe, while the body is actually experiencing a blood-oxygen level that would normally, and indirectly, invoke a strong dyspnea. Some have incorrectly attributed the effect of hyperventilation to increased oxygen in the blood, not realizing that it is actually due to a decrease in CO2 in the blood and lungs. Blood leaving the lungs is normally fully saturated with oxygen, so hyperventilation of normal air cannot increase the amount of oxygen available. Lowering the CO2 concentration increases the pH of the blood, thus increasing the time before the respiratory center becomes stimulated, as described above. While hyperventilation will yield slightly longer breath-holding times, any small time increase is at the expense of possible hypoxia. One using this method can suddenly lose consciousness—a shallow water blackout—as a result. If a person loses consciousness underwater, especially in fresh water, there is a considerable danger that they will drown. An alert diving partner would be in the best position to rescue such a person.
Apneic oxygenation[edit]
Because the exchange of gases between the blood and airspace of the lungs is independent of the movement of gas to and from the lungs, enough oxygen can be delivered to the circulation even if a person is apneic. This phenomenon (apneic oxygenation) is explained as follows:
With the onset of apnea, an underpressure develops in the airspace of the lungs, because more oxygen is absorbed than CO2 is released. With the airways closed or obstructed, this will lead to a gradual collapse of the lungs. However, if the airways are patent (open), any gas supplied to the upper airways will follow the pressure gradient and flow into the lungs to replace the oxygen consumed. If pure oxygen is supplied, this process will serve to replenish the oxygen stored in the lungs. The uptake of oxygen into the blood will then remain at the usual level and the normal functioning of the organs will not be affected.
However, no CO2 is removed during apnea. The partial pressure of CO2 in the airspace of the lungs will quickly equilibrate with that of the blood. As the blood is loaded with CO2 from the metabolism, more and more CO2 will accumulate and eventually displace oxygen and other gases from the airspace. CO2 will also accumulate in the tissues of the body, resulting in respiratory acidosis.
Under ideal conditions (i.e., if pure oxygen is breathed before onset of apnea to remove all nitrogen from the lungs, and pure oxygen is insufflated), apneic oxygenation could theoretically be sufficient to provide enough oxygen for survival of more than one hour's duration in a healthy adult.[citation needed] However, accumulation of carbon dioxide (described above) would remain the limiting factor.
Apneic oxygenation is more than a physiologic curiosity. It can be employed to provide a sufficient amount of oxygen in thoracic surgery when apnea cannot be avoided, and during manipulations of the airways such as bronchoscopy, intubation, and surgery of the upper airways. However, because of the limitations described above, apneic oxygenation is inferior to extracorporal circulation using a heart-lung machine and is therefore used only in emergencies and for short procedures.
In 1959, Frumin described the use of apneic oxygenation during anesthesia and surgery. Of the eight test subjects in this landmark study, the highest recorded paCO2 was 250 millimeters of mercury, and the lowest arterial pH was 6.72 after 53 minutes of apnea.[2]
Apnea test in determining brain death[edit]
A recommended practice for the clinical diagnosis of brain death formulated by the American Academy of Neurology hinges on the conjunction of three diagnostic criteria: coma, absence of brainstem reflexes, and apnea (defined as the inability of the patient to breathe unaided, that is, with no life support systems). The apnea test follows a delineated protocol.[3]

No Sky Zone: Residents of 57th Street Rage Against Extell's High Rise Row, 'Gluttonous' Buildings
At 6:30 a.m., West 58th Street is a hushed world, still more night than day in the predawn blue of an early fall morning. The occasional runner treads by en route to Central Park, but, for the most part, the city that never sleeps is, in fact, asleep, a slumbering population that once included Joel and Sherri Maxman.
The Maxmans live at 152 West 58th Street, a nine-story co-op that would be utterly unremarkable were it not for One57, one of the tallest buildings in North America and among the most luxurious condos in the world, rising within spitting distance of its backside.
These days, the Maxmans and the rest of the building are early risers whether they like it or not, awake as soon as the hoist begins its creaking ascent up the exterior of the 1,004-foot skyscraper at 6:30 or 6:40 or 6:45 a.m., its journey punctuated by the clang of counterweights at the top. Elsewhere in the city, construction is restricted to waking hours, but One57's developer, Extell, has exemptions that allow work to start in the early morning and continue into the evening, seven days per week.

Good while it workedPros: Fast and easy to install Cons: Died after less than a year Other Thoughts: Countless reseatings and reboots couldnt fix the issue. Luckily I have a spare Revo3 in myt closet to rebuild Windows while I RMA this one Hopefully OCZ will honor the RMA quickly. Otherwise I will be reposting Did you find this review helpful? |
Fast, but proved unreliablePros: This was my first SSD. Bought it in February 2011. It absolutely destroyed my previous striped RAID configuration's performance. Great boot times, and the latest games would launch and load quickly. Cons: Three major cons: Other Thoughts: I am going to RMA this through OCZ Support. In the meantime to tide me over I purchased a Vertex 4 256 GB SATA SSD on sale. I was hesitant to buy another OCZ SSD given my experience with the RevoDrive, which is sad because I don't think that OCZ necessarily makes garbage SSDs. I think this product is just too "bleeding edge" for its own good, thereby tarnishing OCZ's reputation. Did you find this review helpful? |
Great while it lastedPros: The thing is fast. It truly does load windows up in just 5-9 seconds. It is stable, although STEAM does not like it at all. Had to put that application on another hard drive, which still worked out. Cons: The fact it took up a PCI-E slot was... difficult. Because I could not seat it as securely as I would have liked. It wobbled if I bumped my computer, and I would have to play with it to get it rolling again. Other Thoughts: Many people complain about price, and it is high, but that did not affect the eggs. The fact it was amazing when it worked, just made it that much more awesome. Unfortunately, the fact it stopped working in under a year, irks the eggs right out of me and out of the rating. Did you find this review helpful? |
DiedPros: Was fast when it worked Cons: Died after a year and a half. Specs claim a 2,000,000 hour mean-time-before-failure, but mine failed after about 13,000 hours. One of the four 55GB drives in the raid array failed, rendering the whole thing useless. Very disappointed with this drive given the past positive experiences I've had with OCZ products. Opened a RMA ticket with OCZ. Hopefully there will be no snags getting a refund/replacement given the 3 year warranty. Other Thoughts: Won't be using any revodrives again. Did you find this review helpful? |
wait revisitedPros: It's fast (you knew that) Cons: After 1 year and 3mos it failed to start with a missing 55gig drive. Evidently Others have had the same problem. OCZ is replacing it under warranty but I expected better. Beware. Other Thoughts: Buy a newer model or better yet get a Crucial. Even though The Crucial drive measures slower it actually seems faster in use and it is more reliable. Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |
OCZ support came through for mePros: OCZ support was A+ for online forum as well as telephone technical support. I received the necessary assistance and support to get my defective Revodrive X2 240GB replaced. Cons: Sorry it had to happen but OCZ was there to make things right. Other Thoughts: I received a brand new replacement RevoDrive X2 from OCZ. I installed it, cloned the O.S. and programs from the defective original RevoDrive X2, turned machine off, placed new drive in original PCIe high speed slot and rebooted. New SSD worked immediately from the super fast boot up. Did you find this review helpful? |
OCZ RevoDrive X2 PCIe SSDPros: The Revo X2 240GB is without a doubt a top performer. Aside from all the benchmark scores being industry leading for this type of drive, it's real world performance really shines. I am mostly a gamer, so fast loading times, smooth gameplay is soo nice to have. Of course graphics cards do the heavy lifting, but to not have that one bottleneck (HDD) is a big plus in my book. I also do 3D digital landscapes and the like, render times are very fast with the Revo X2, gotta love it. Multi-tasking is a breeze. Installation was soo simple, place the card in a PCIe slot and you are good to go. Cons: For a novice install could be tricky. With having to install the correct drivers during Windows install. But OCZ has one of the best support groups to help you along the way. TRIM is lacking because the card is a RAID array. Intel may be the one to look at here. Other Thoughts: My experience with OCZ and the Revo X2 has been excellent. Recently had to call upon OCZ tech support for a malfunctioning drive. Must say, the tech support and RMA team has been very quick to respond, is very efficient and totally professional. Did you find this review helpful? |
DON'T BUY ANYTHING FROM OCZ!!!Pros: OCZ ripped me off!! As you can see from my previous reviews I have had issues with the Rexo2 X2 drive that I have purchased 8 months ago, it lasted 7, with the last month going around and around with Customer Service, They agreed to upgrade me to a Revo3 X2 as well as return shipping. They kept telling me that they would e-mail the shipping label, this dragged on for a week with several phone calls and comments a day trying to get them to live up to their promises. On Friday Jan 6th in the evening I finally received it, Just in time to have to wait over the week to ship it out UPS. On Jan 12 I received the drive, to find to dismay that is was a Revo3, not the X2 that was agreed upon. OCZ's reply is that they "Upgraded" me, and that was all they were going to do. Today I can get that drive that they sent as a replacement for 135 dollars less than the Revo2 X2 drive that I had bought, I can even get the Revo3 X2 drive for $35 less.... Cons: Don't waste your time and money on any OCZ products. Look at the reviews! I feel that they are peddling known defective products, and will not stand behind them! Other Thoughts: In my humble opinion, OCZ has lied, cheated, and stolen from me. Never, ever will I buy, use, or recommend another OCZ product. I will however caution all about my experience/nightmare... I will frame, and display the unopened box on the wall as a reminder.. Manufacturer Response: 2 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Great HDDPros: Super duper fast Cons: Sometimes has conflicts with internal raid depending on MOBO Other Thoughts: If someone is interested in this HDD please e-mail me at chlywly at gmail.com because I am selling a NEW one for ($500 shipped) Tested/Fully working. I got it as a replacement for a smaller one from OCZ 0 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Saddened in SeattlePros: At this point there isn't any good news, turning into an ongoing saga.... Cons: It appears that OCZ customer service has given me lip service, telling one thing, and not living up to their promises.. I think that it's time to put my first plan into action..... Other Thoughts: Not a happy camper at this point... It will probally be next Christmas before I'll be able to edit my Christmas Videos from this past Christmas at this rate. 2 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
