I found Ed Yourdon's essay fascinating in both form and content. The content agrees with something I have known for several years now: that the best of times would eventually trigger the worst of times. But the form is even more engaging because of Ed's underlying premise: that overall our technology is far from invincible and might ultimately undermine our efforts to produce that which best serves our users. That we would even consider this possible amazes me. The use of software to solve problems has been evolutionary and was, initially, almost completely driven by technology. At first, we were limited to what could be done with the early architectures, so we defined and redefined problems around those constraints. As the technology matured, the range of problems to which it could be applied grew. The technology is still evolving-at an incredible pace-and still doing so in a disconnected way. Chip, database, and communications technologies, for example, are evolving as mutually reinforcing knowledge masses in search of business problems to solve. This isn't all bad. Engines for change are ubiquitous and not always connected to the problems they will eventually tackle, but history does suggest that our early expectations about the problem-solving potential of unbridled technology should be relatively low.

Sunday night I lost it on my FWH for no reason, I just got angry about the OW & OC and started asking questions, which he answered. I felt much better yesterday after my blow up. I think I finally might be getting better!!
Plus she hasn't contacted us in three weeks and that really helps. She might show up at this work tonight, that is how she has been contacting him lately, but hopefully not. I think she might have actually given up. No, I think that's too good to be true, at least at this point. I'm sure once the custody battle starts, her claws will come at us full force.
I divorced my WS as soon as I found out about the OC. However, I am having a VERY hard time cutting contact and I am not sure if I am completely sure of losing him forever. I am starting to consider things I have never considered before.
What first made me stay was I didn't want the OW to "win", she got pregnant on purpose cause she wanted my life and I wasn't going to let her have it. Then I also didn't want my COM to have to be without thier father, cause aside from the hurt and pain he caused me he has always been an excellent father to our kids. But the biggest reason was at the end of the day I still loved him and didn't want to be without him. Had he not worked together with me in the OC situation and had he insisted on having contact with OW/OC I'm not sure what would have happened with us. Maybe it would have worked, maybe not. But we are and have been NC and the OC is a month away from being adopted by OW new husband. Has your H shown an intrest in wanting to be with you ? Is he in contact with OW/OC? And is this something that you can deal with? Is he willing to work on setting boundries with OW concerning OC? These are all thing's that have to be taken into consideration before you can decide if you want to get back with your H. Hope this is the kind of info you were looking for. Post any time, it can be a little slow around here sometimes but someone will get back to you eventually. PM me if you want to
We don't have children together, so that was my driving force to actually divorce him. I felt that I would never be able to give him his first child and that she would always use that to her advantage. My love has not faltered or diminished. No one around me seems to understand that.
He continues to ask for us to work on things. It is hard to say no each and every time. He absolutely said that he would allow me to call the shots when it came to the OW/OC. He would rather pay child support and allow her to raise the OC. In a sense, that bothers me too. I would prefer for her to put the child up for adoption so he and I could truly see if we could ever work again. She would rather keep a tie to him, which again, scares me.
I want to believe everything he has to say, but let's be honest, he put us in this situation to begin with. I have continued to try to start a new life, but with very little luck. It all comes back to him. If the OC didn't exsist, I believe that we would be in R.
If the OC didn't exsist, I believe that we would be in R.
You can be in R even with the OC in existence, it really can be done. I won't deny that the OC in our situation being adopted by OW H doesn't make our life easier, but even if it weren't happening we would still be in R. OC is 12 years old so this has been going on for a long time for us, and there are rough moments, but it isn't impossible. Especially since your H seems to be on the same page as far as letting you call the shots when it comes to OC. OW using OC as a tie to your H won't work if he doesn't let it. My H hasn't spoken to OW in 11 years, any dealings that HAD to be dealt with concerning OC have always gone through me, which is rough but better than OW talking to my H in my book. And it used to bother me that I wasn't the only woman to be able to say that I gave him his children, but time does make that better. If you and your H are still in love and he is willing to do what it takes to R it can be done, and you can't let other peoples opinions affect what you do, you need to do what is right for you.

R with OC invovled is soooo not easy. But it is doable. We're doing well so far.
It would have been impossible though if FWH had tried to call the shots in ANY way.
We had R after OC. I had been told some lies about OC's conception & WH's involvement. For the most part, we'd been R for a long time after OC's birth.
If WH had gone NC w/OW, I think M would have been somewhat better (nothing's perfect). If OW hadn't been out there hovering, waiting, plotting, thinking there was still a chance w/WH, I believe M could have blossomed. OW has been the papercut that never goes away & a third wheel for so long.
I belive, that if I'd have set boundaries & conditions about R#2, WH would have either left me & DS12/DS9, or he would have quit being "just friends" with OW.
I don't think R#3 will work, if we don't seek MC soon. I think he's still somewhat foggy about OW & has rewritten our M to make me out to be someone I'm not.
Having OC around so much & having her look like her momma, makes things very difficult sometimes. Even my best friend said that she didn't see how I managed to stay, because our recent family photos (including OC) shows that OC is spitting-image of OW. It's like having a mini-OW right in my home 50% of the week. It doesn't help that OC is growing so fast & is almost as tall as me @8years (I'm only 5ft2in). She's even wearing girls 14/16 clothes. Couldn't she look like our niece or something instead! Come on, don't I get a break? Maybe she'll dye her hair another color as a teen, then not look like her momma or something.
((Lynne)), so proud of you for sticking to your guns and standing up for yourself, I know it's hard, btu everyday that you get some power back over your life, it gets easier and easier. ((Overcoming)), good for you taking back something. I used to get knots in my stomach everytime we got near the OW's house, so I know what you were going thru. That is a major breakthru for you believe it or not. And you are going to have bouts of anger, I went thru that for almost 2 years, as long as your H is understanding and you talk it thru, you can get thru it. But don't let OW silence fool you, I call it the quiet before the storm, stay on your toes.
((Holdingon)), welcome to our forum. For me my situation was a little different due to the fact that the OC were grown before I found out about them. My choice to stay is that my H was remorseful and we had years invested in our family. At first I will admit that I did not want OW to win, but later it was not about her, it was about rebuilding my family. Is R difficult with OC involved? YES, but if you both are committed to rebuilding your relationship, it can be done.
Hugs to you all!

OC was conceived during repeat affair w/OW. I was lied to about A#2 & thought that WH was tricked into getting OW pregnant. If I'd have known that WH was TRYING to get OW pregnant, I don't think I could have stayed.
I found out about OC before her birth, but WH had led me to believe there was only a ONS (he'd slipped up & gone to see OW after long NC and she seduced him). That wasn't true & I didn't know that OC was planned on both parties & that A#2 was a multiple-month/many motel visits thing. Since, I thought OC was accident on WH's part & he also led me to believe that OW had been dating others, so OC might not be his. He was really wonderful husband once R started & IC during OW's final pregnancy month helped. I went w/WH to DNA testing (OW wasn't there & she & OC went later in week). I just kept thinking "OW is slut, it won't be WH's child."
I stayed after A#1 because I loved WH & really wanted to make things work. We only had 1 child then (DS12 had just turned 2), but we'd been together for almost 10 years.
I stayed after A#2 (impending OC's birth) because of my children & the hope that OC wasn't my husband's...It was about 7 months after R had started, that I found out OC was WH's (DNA results). We had rekindled our romance & I wasn't sure what to do. I knew it'd be hard to raise a 4-year-old & 1-year-old alone. WH was my first & only love and it's difficult to give him up. WH wouldn't go NC w/OC, he wanted to be her father. My decision to allow OC into our home was very difficult, but I knew that visitation alone w/OW (or OW's relatives) was completely out-of-question. We could never R, if WH had to be alone w/OW weekly for 1+ hours. I would have had to D him.
I stayed after A#3 because he begged, cried, etc. He's never behaved that way toward me (like I meant the world to him). A sermon @church the weekend of D-day#3 also made me consider R#3. I still struggle daily w/my decision to stay. We're going to start MC & I'm not sure if I'll ever be 100% that I want to stay. I am strong enough to leave him now if R#3 isn't successful, but I will always love him (I think OW will always love him too).
I've decided that we can't R. Since we weren't married, and have no COM, I've decided I cannot live my life with him AND OW. If it were just OC...OC just magically appeared out of nowhere, I would try R. But I have seen HOW INSANE OW is, and I refuse to spend the rest of my life with her in the equation. I know she wanted him, she would never let us live in peace, she is so beyond jealous of me.
I understand having trouble with starting a new life. None of my friends understand what I am going through, and it's very lonely. You are not alone here, OK!
I have struggled with this for so long, OW does not want my FWH, she just plain wants to be me, so much so that she is trying to mimick me. She wants to be me, she wants what I have, she wants to dress like me, it is pathetic. But she will never be me, because I have a heart and a soul, that she will never have.
Well girls, I am back.
Little update, well as little as possible. Since I have left here I have been very stern that it is over, and at that point there was nothing he could do to change it.
I voiced my feelings to on my blog, and SIL forward them to FIL, boy did I really start some major drama, but you know I was standing up for what I believed in, and it felt pretty damn good.
Well FWH, came home, and announced that he would do what ever I want, and he had been doing some serious soul searching, and wants to spend the rest of his life with me in it, he then called OW in front of me on his own. Told her that from now on that when he sees OC I will be with him, and that they are only friends cause they have OC together, and nothing more, that I do not deserve to be treated the way I am by family or anyone else, I had not done anything wrong. Boy was she screaming and yelling, but then he just hung up.
Then he had it out with his family, told them to stay out of his personal affairs, and life, Told his DS, that she was not even invited to his funeral when he dies, it is only for friends and family, which she is neither, and also told his parents he wants nothing to do with them, if they are going to treat me like this after everything I have done for that family.
I found out through all this drama, that MIL asked OW if she could make a list of family to invite to OW B-day party for OC, MIL wanted to introduce them to family, FWH said that if they were to be introduced to the family it should be done with me along his side, and not without me. FWH was angry when he heard about this list. as he should be.
Then FWH asked me to marry him, again. I said no not tell I see more action, and see how things play out. He wants to plan it for middle of August. Way to soon for me.
So needless to say I am back, for now, and just waiting to see how things go. FWH also said he wants IC, and wants me to go, to see that he is actually going. WOW, just WOW. This is all a surprise turn around I did not expect. But still very cautious of actions and words. But my FWH is mexican decent and to turn your back on family is like WOW. He is supporting me, and that is the way it should be.
Well this Sunday I go with FWH to pick OC up from OW, this will be a real challenge, and kind of scared, I know I did nothing wrong, but this is scarey. I have only seen her in the court house, but like this, touching children, or not, this is gona feel awkward. Do I help load them in my car, do I just sit there, Do I get out and grab one from her, do I let FWH do it all. I just not sure what I should do.
Well I am very glad to be back on this forum, and not down in D/S. But I know this may not be permanent, but at least for now, I can rest a bit, and eat again.
I wish you the best. Post if you need anything or support.
I'd recommend neutral transfer location (public park or McDonald's parking lot). That's BullSH*T that WH or even you have to go near her home. I feel really uncomfortable if I have to pickup OC @OW's house. We used to use McDonald's (closer 2 her house), but now use local park that is 1/2-way between 2 houses.
Hmmm. If you're comfortable with it, have WH walk w/you to OW's vehicle (holding ur hand) and have him hand you OC. You won't be leaning into OW's vehicle & will look like unified front. If you're gonna cry or something...stay in your vehicle. Don't let OW see you CRY! Well, that's what WH tells me when I have to go to bbgames for OC & OW is there sitting near (harassing me).
I believe it will be at a parking lot, cause that is always were he would pick up and drop off, and I dont think OW wants me to know where she lives, even though I do. She don't know it though.
I do like your suggestion, of him holding my hand and handing one child to me, and then him go around to the other side and get the other. I will never let OW see me cry, I want to make her cry, LOL. And the only way I see to do that and it not be intentional, is for me to be happy, and pleased with myself, I DID NO WRONG.. So she can eat shit.
Thanks for the suggestion, I believe the hand holding thing, will get to her the most. And make me feel sooo secure.
Yeah, I told FWH, the other nite, that I know he emptied those balls out with OW, now he needs to fill them up, and use them against her. LOL and he did.
OW was out of her vehicle on Friday when I picked up OC.
She has verbal agreement w/WH that she will stay in vehicle (instead of leaning into mine) during PU of OC. I listened to whole conversation & she clearly agreed to stay in-vehicle.
I have lost 32 lbs (from 205 lbs to 173) & am quite proud of it. A few weeks ago, OC said her momma is losing weight also.
Well, I triggered badly Friday, when OW, OC, & toddler were walking across park toward my vehicle. They'd gone 2 PU location about 1 hour early so kiddies could play @park (nice sunny day). Now, OC got straight into my minvan & OW didn't come near it, BUT the fact that I had to see her face-2-face hasn't come up in months. She has tinted windows on her Ford Taurus & I don't have to see her (only her outline) usually.
OW has lost about 50 lbs. (down from about 250 to 200 lbs), had on tanktop, capri pants, those awful black velcro slippers that swimmers & UFC-ers/MMA fighters wear, and had her toenails painted black (WTF, where'd that come from). She looked happy, smiling etc....holding the girls' hands. I just HATE to see OW smiling. She's supposed to live a miserable, tortured life, isn't she.
I just thought I'd update a bit...I triggered hard.
As far as picking up the OC, I agree a netural place would be best at least until you feel comfortable with this. You and your H should discuss how you are going to handle this. For me, I got out of the car with my H, and I allowed OW to put the twins in their car seats and sometimes helped if needed and put there bags in the trunk. At no time did I allow my H and her to speak privately, this is very important because OW need to know you are there as a united front. Good luck honey! I am very proud of you!
don't forget, WH needs to open the car door for you, so you can put OC#1 in, & then you need to hold OC #2 while he opens door#2 and you hand baby in.
Then, he needs to walk to your door & open it, leaning in to give you a kiss on lips for being so brave.
It never hurts to make things look like M & R are going well. I so adore a real gentleman too.
P.S. if your WH expects R, he needs to get his wedding band resized & NEVER take it off (unless obligated @work for safety reasons or something). It needs to be ON & clearly visible during all pickup/dropoffs. AND, especially during any family get-togethers that he may choose to attend.
Well, it's official - OW really is pregnant. A co-worker of mine went to the doc's yesterday (OW works in at a OBGYN) and she said that she has a belly. My friend said she sat there and gave the OW the evil eye the whole time she was waiting. It was all she could do to keep from going postal on OW. Needless to say my heart is crushed!!!
I had been telling myself that she was pregnant, but to hear that she is now showing made my heart sink!
My family is being really supportive, and everyone tries to give me advice and how I should look at the situation differently. I should see all the blessings that have come out of this horrible situation. I know they are just trying to help, but they don't understand how it FEELS.How am I supposed to deal with the fact that my H is having a OC with OW and we are still married????
H told me he doesn't consider OW the mother of his child, I'm the mother of his children. When he thinks of the word "mom" its either his mother or me. He also said when the OC is with us it is "our" child and the OW is just a egg donor. BUT how can I see her that way when I will have to see her at least once a week for the next 18 years??
My H would rather just walk away from the OC, but the kind of person he is, he would regret it and he already has enough regrets. The OW hates me and I never did anything to her, she has caused ME pain. She thought she had won cuz she got pregnant, but she just made herself look like an Ass. She got pregnant on purpose to a married man!! How disgusting is that?!?!
I haven't seen OW in about 3 months and that was the one and only time I saw her since the A had started. I don't know how I'm going to feel when the OC comes and all these emotions come flooding in.
What a sad mess!!!!
Reading all of your stories, I see both sides. The heartaches, as well as the marriages that are in recovery. The OC is a girl, so I have a HUGE fear of when she is born, she will look like the OW. It just seems like an uphill battle that can never be won. But, again, with everything staring me in the face, why can't I make a FINAL decision? Why can't I say I'll take you back or why can't I say NC forever from the xH?
So confused and torn...

Militants attack Afghan government delegation visiting site of deadly US shooting spree
BALANDI, Afghanistan (AP) — Taliban militants opened fire Tuesday on an Afghan government delegation visiting one of the two villages in southern Afghanistan where a U.S. soldier is suspected of killing 16 civilians.
The gunfire killed an Afghan soldier who was providing security for the delegation in Balandi village, said Gen. Abdul Razaq, the police chief for Kandahar province where the visit took place. Another Afghan soldier and a military prosecutor were wounded in the attack, he said.
The delegation, which included two of President Hamid Karzai's brothers and other senior officials, was holding a memorial service in a mosque for the civilians killed Sunday when the shooting started.
One of the president's brothers, Qayum Karzai, said the attack didn't seem serious to him.
"We were giving them our condolences, then we heard two very, very light shots," said Karzai. "Then we assumed that it was the national army that started to fire in the air."
Deep South primaries in Alabama and Mississippi could clarify GOP presidential contest
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) — Mitt Romney is working to seal his status as the Republican presidential front-runner with a thus-far-elusive victory in the Deep South.
Closely fought primaries in Alabama and Louisiana offer the former Massachusetts governor a key opportunity in a region that has been slow to embrace him. Tuesday's primaries are also poised to render a possible final verdict on Newt Gingrich's Southern-focused candidacy.
With polls showing an unexpectedly tight race in the conservative bellwether states, Romney made a campaign appearance Monday in Alabama — a clear indication he was eyeing a potential win there.
Romney campaigned with Southern comedian Jeff Foxworthy and poked fun at his own lack of hunting skills, saying he hoped to set out with an Alabama friend who "can actually show me which end of the rifle to point."
Battling anew to be Romney's main conservative challenger, Gingrich and Rick Santorum both spoke at an energy forum in Mississippi and took questions on religion in public life at a presidential forum in Birmingham, Ala. They took sharp aim at President Barack Obama, with Santorum labeling the president's foreign policy "pathetic" and Gingrich taunting Obama as "President Algae" for an energy speech in which Obama spoke of research that would allow oil and gas to be developed from algae one day.
Analysis: White House race jolted by events outside Obama's control
WASHINGTON (AP) — This is the economy election, right? Tell that to the world.
President Barack Obama is getting another dose of the reality of his job: the out-of-his-control events that shape whether he will keep it.
He is lobbying Israel not to launch on attack on Iran that could set the Middle East on fire and pull the United States into another war. He is struggling to get world powers to unite on halting a massacre in Syria. He is on the defensive about staying in Afghanistan after a U.S. soldier allegedly went on a killing spree against civilians.
And back home, where the economy is king, everyone is talking about the price of gasoline. Which, as Obama can't say enough, no one can control right now.
The Republican presidential candidates don't have to worry as much about all this because they don't have the responsibility of governing — a luxury Obama likes to note, although he enjoyed the same when he was the challenger. The Republicans, though, are being drawn into events beyond their preferred message of the day.

Q. When I get a new traditional lock-blade knife, it often messes up within the first hour. When I close it, the blade flips in and out and will not completely shut. Why isn't it working?
— Bad Knife Jacob, Clinton, N.C.
A. Without seeing your knife first-hand it's tough for me to say what's wrong with it. My guess is that the knife itself wasn't all that well-made in the first place. I understand that price is usually a concern for most of us, that's why I'm happy there are knives out there like the SOG AutoClip Mini [$23; sogknives.com]. I've field-tested this simple, affordable lock-back knife with its 2.86-inch stainless-steel blade for months and can say it's well-made and works perfectly. You can also find several other affordable lock-back options from Buck Knives and Gerber. Good luck!
Cool Stainless steel
I got my lock back knife at a scout store and it has rubber handle for good grip.
your problem is you've got a cheap knife. you need to go out and buy your self a good knife (preferable a sheath knife then you wont have trouble with it closing) you will spend about $30 but if you take carry of it you will only spend it once. and you will save money in the long run.
I just bought an Opinel #7 carbon steel knife and am loving it. It's not your traditional lockback. The locking mechanism twists around the top of the handle and blade to lock it into place. Very easy to use. There's a stainless steel version as well, but I like a sharp, safe knife, and went with carbon steel instead.
Take a peek at a "Peck" brand knife. Very good single blade lock blade for about $24.00.
Gerber LMF fixed blade for heavy duty work. I used it wile in Iraq and it never failed me.
I got my knife at a surplus store. Had it for 2 years and it still works like a charm. It was only 25 dollars too.
A great knife that I have had for a while is the Gerber EVO. It is a great locking knife. It keeps a edge very well and I have dropped it numerous times and all it has to show are a couple scratches. Good luck!!
I have the EVO jr. I found it on a hike and I cleaned it up and now it is my number 2 knife.
Maxam locking blade good quality. 3 inch blade
i have had a kershaw vapor 1 for several years now it has a 2.5 in. blade and i like it for about 25 dollars
Your lock axial is probably broken. most likely dew to cheap manufacturering. Allow me to suggest either a good Gerber, or Buck lock back (Like the Buck 110 hunter or the Quick Fire) or you may want a good short fixed blade (KA-bar BK2 Champion) check out amazon.com or ebay for a good cheap price. Glad to help!

I am based in Uganda where there is too much belief in witchcraft and magics. One scenario in some remote primitive communities in Uganda do disturb my thinking that people can send spirits to other people,spirits robbing money from banks, spirits of some one buried coming back to disturb the living,. Could any one out there help in explaining whether the spiritual world do exist or it is a myth.
Tags: atheism, humanism, philosophy, religions, spirits
The supernatural does not exist.
I don't understand mathematics or physics and I can't explain the Universe. However, I know that the world was created naturally and not supernaturally. I also know there is a natural explanation for that which I don't know.
A spiritual world does not exist.
This video from Kenya is reported as a Witch burning and I'm curious about the likely circumstances leading up to these people being burnt and beaten to death. Of course, such phenomena has occured in many countries and cultures in recent history and I'm reflecting on Joseph P's comments above;
AKron (much as I agree) we should consider "where" the spiritual world exists, rather than "if" one exists.
In the minds of devout (mentally ill or deluded) people, the spirit world is as complete as it is real; to the rest of us it's completely bogus.
Debunking the spirit world requires a intimate knowledge of the human psyche: believers can see or feel things that we simply cannot. They are not real, of course, but that does not prevent them from experiencing them. As Joseph quite accurately points out:
"Just have to watch out for the psychos who will fulfill their spiritual claims, using nonspiritual means"
Sage words indeed!
Marc - When you say "where" the spiritual world exists, do you mean physically in the brain? I don't know where that would be, but I've read that researchers are making amazing progress on this now. Then there's that odd disorder called Charles Bonnet syndrome where people who otherwise appear completely sane and rational vividly see people who aren't there. I think there are answers to be found as to why people truly believe they experience things that aren't real.
James Randi the magician & skeptic has a video on YouTube about his out of body experience I found interesting.
@AKron - I was being more abstract than physical. We don't need to know where in the brain these things occur (and more than we need to know where in the brain "we" live).
I won't deny that it's useful to science to know where these things happen and my own research has thrown up some wonderful stuff which is something for a different discussion.
If find that it's helpful to just talk of a generic "brain" or even "head" rather than a physical structure within it - as people are aware that they have a heart or a head but less likely to be familiar with particular parts. Most people can drive, but comparatively few are familiar with how their engine's work and, fewer could repair them and even fewer still could design one.
This stuff comes naturally to you and I, perhaps, but we have to remember that we are in a minority and it's up to us to make it understandable to the majority.
As a complete aside (but related) do you ever wonder why we congratulate people on birthdays, having a child or (bizarrely to me) becoming a grandparent? Also (in Western Europe at least) we have some odd ideas about making children finish everything on their plate even when they are clearly full to brimming!
Until comparatively recently, I'd not thought to challenge or question these "norms" - and then I realised both are vestigial elements from a culture that (in the former case) remains in living memory! But I'm off on one here - this detail something for a separate discussion.
I've just finished watching a rather strange documentary on BBC television: www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b011x721
It seemed to be a combination or conflation of two ideas: that human actions are determined less by free will than we might like to believe, and more by machine-like behaviour programmed by our DNA or genes; and that European influences in Africa have repeatedly been disastrous, (partly due to machine-like behaviour overriding free will and any morality or ethics).
A comment in the middle of the programme was that Richard Dawkins and others had inadvertently reinvented the "soul", as the machine-like behaviour drives us, directly or indirectly, to propagate our genes, (or those of close relatives). The genes, (whether or not they are transmitted through our own offspring), continue to live after we are dead: which is what religious folk believe that "souls" do.
However, as for "spirits of the dead" returning to disturb the living, I believe that ALL findings on this have produced perfectly natural explanations: often involving fraud, deceit, and other power games by manipulative individuals seeking to control the gullible.

The gRbase package provides certain general constructs which are used by other graphical modelling packages, in particular by the packages gRain, gRim and gRc. gRbase contains several datasets relevant for use in connection with graphical models. Almost all datasets used in the book Graphical Models with R (2012) are contained in gRbase. gRbase implements several graph algorithms (based mainly on representing graphs as adjacency matrices - either in the form of a standard matrix or a sparse matrix). Some graph algorithms are: (i) maximum cardinality search (for marked and unmarked graphs). (ii) moralize. (iii) triangulate. (iv) junctionTree. gRbase facilities for array operations, gRbase implements functions for testing for conditional independence. gRbase illustrates how hierarchical log-linear models (hllm) may be implemented and describes concept of gmData (graphical meta data). These features, however, are not maintained anymore and remains in gRbase only because there exists a paper describing these facilities: A Common Platform for Graphical Models in R: The gRbase Package, Journal of Statistical Software, Vol 14, No 17, 2005.

While students were away working summer internships and jobs, traveling near and far, and, we hope, catching a little R & R, Denison's campus was undergoing more than the normal amount of summertime changes.

Syncronizing mails across Apple devices
I'm trying to syncronize the mails on my Mac Mini (Lion) with an iPod Touch (iOS5) and iPad (iOS5). I want the folder structure to be the same on all 3 devices. So when you delete a mail on one device, it gets deleted on all. Just about everything IMAP does. But... My ISP doesn't support IMAP Only POP3. And since I can't change of ISP or emailadress, I need another solution. So, I thought maybe it's possible to: - Install Lion Server on the Mac Mini - Setup an IMAP server that fetches the mails from the POP server of my ISP and sends mails with the STMP of my ISP - Setup my devices to sync with my local IMAP-server and send mails with my local IMAP-server so they get in the sentbox of my local IMAP Is the above possible? Is there any better/easier/cheaper solution? In my opinion, it seems a little overkill but it's the only solution I found. Thanks, Simon

I have a 2-year contract with my ISP. And I'm in the beginning of it and I can't simply cancel it
Changing emailadress is also a problem because it's about a little business and we have cards and papers with our emailadress printed on. There are also a lot of contacts who we would need to inform about the new email etc.. I*prefer making some local changes instead of having trough the pain of informing everyone, reprinting every paper or card...

I guess it also depends on how important having all your e-mails synced is. If it's a "nice to have" I don't think your above suggestion is worth it.
Got a problem? Check here first. |

Your mini already has the fetchmail program, it can download mail from your POP provider and hand them to the local sendmail process. IMAP doesn't send mail. You don't have to change your SMTP configuration. If you don't want to build/install/configure all this yourself, you can buy MailServe from http://cutedgesystems.com for $25 which is a package that puts this all together for you. A. |

Thanks for the replies!
Mailserve looks very good! However, Gmail is also a good solution when I don't want to do any maintenance myself. Yes, you're right: IMAP is receiving only.. Didn't thought about that. Maybe I'll just try Mailserve and see how it turns out. If it doesn't work that well, I just go with Gmail like suggested.

I run the Lion Server like you have outlined above (I have run it for years that way, prior with SL). The bonus of the server is that you can easily run everything in one place if you want (web server, calendar server, mail server, and address book server) for your business and push all of that information to your devices like you have planned.
It is not really that hard to set up if you have some decent knowledge and works like you would like to have done with the advantage of syncing calendars and address books (which you could also do with GMail). Not really recording it (I love mine, but it is not for everyone), just some food for though. |

The Effulgence of Country GardensJack Lenor Larsen (b.1927) is one of America's most prolific and innovative 20th Century textiles designers. He came to prominence in the 1950s with his distinctive hand-woven casement fabrics for the commercial contract market. But he was not surprised to later become best known for his sumptuous printed fabrics like Primavera. For Larsen, it was all about color. Jack Lenor Larsen, Don Wight, Gustav Klimt, velvet |
Velvet with Gold DisksThis sumptuous red velvet with gold disks embodies what we can learn from textiles by looking, comparing, deconstructing, reconstructing, and then interpreting our observations. Milton Sonday, my predecessor in the Textiles department at the Cooper-Hewitt, is a master of this methodology and has spent years employing it and teaching it to researchers and curators around the world. textile, velvet, gold, Milton Sonday |

A Carolina-based theme park is getting some big props for summer fun after it was named one of the "Summer's Seven Best New Theme Park Attractions."
The list was put together by Minitime.com, a website which claims to "revolutionize the way families plan and book vacations. MiniTime is your one-stop destination for finding the best places to stay and things to do for your family."
Carowinds, which is located on the North Carolina, South Carolina border between Mecklenburg and York counties was named on the list for its newest attraction "Dinosaurs Alive!"
"They roar, thrash their tails around and wave their sharp claws: The Carowinds theme park in Charlotte, North Carolina, just opened a five-acre area with 32 animatronic, life-size dinosaurs, based on real fossil evidence," the author wrote on Minitime.com. "The area has a gift shop, of course, as well as a diggable sand pit for aspiring paleontologists."
The list was looking theme park attractions which offer kids and parents a hands-on—and often educational—way to make the most out of a day at the park.
"From the time of the first exhibition in 1854 at the Crystal Palace, dinosaurs have captured the imagination and fascination of the public," Carowinds wrote about the exhibit on its website."Visitors to Carowinds can step back in time to the beginning of the "Age of the Dinosaurs" at Dinosaurs Alive! – the most immersive and comprehensive Mesozoic experience – and encounter the beasts that dominated the planet for over 180 million years."
The exhibit combines finely detailed hand-crafted animatronics, interactive consoles, a lush setting and educational content that reflect the latest scientific theories.
"[The exhibit] offers not only the excitement of a tail thrashing, clawing and roaring exhibition with more than 30 life-sized, moving animatronic dinosaurs, but the opportunity for guests of all ages to actively engage in a unique learning experience," Carowinds states.
Most of the new attractions named on the list use "souped-up technology—from 4-D digital puppetry and animatronics" and even your own cell phones to get children (and their parents) involved in the fun.
Minitime says most of the new attractions, including Dinosaurs Alive!, let you linger and explore at your own pace.

Comments about Boy Spring Fun Goose Outfit:
I have about 8 of your outfits for the different seasons. People are always commenting on how cute my geese are. I do have one suggestion. We have a lot of wind and after using an outfit one time the elastic strap in the hats are stretched out. I would like to suggest you use a cotton strap with velcro so we can tighten them down snug and not lose the hats to the wind. Thanks for all the cute ideas and just to remind people the outfits are made to fit the plastic geese that are sold with the outfits

ATLANTA (AP) - Fulton County Sheriff's officials say a gunman is in custody after shooting his cousin at a family gathering after a funeral.
Fulton County Sheriff's Sgt. Scott McBride told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution (http://bit.ly/V6y6lz ) the cousins were arguing over the volume of music being played at the gathering before the shooting Tuesday.
McBride says the man, whose identity has not been released, was shot in his abdomen and was taken to Grady Memorial Hospital. Officials were unsure of the man's condition Tuesday night.

Betancourt Nutrition's team of protein supplement formulators lock themselves inside their in-house cGMP manufacturing lab. Their mission is to develop the "best and the biggest", a protein supplement so massive in its content of myo-augmenting proteins and amino acid derivatives that it will produce Testosterone behaviors quantitatively and qualitatively unlike anything else on the market for years to come. Two months and more than a dozen pilot batches later, they emerge from the lab with new Big Blend Proteosynthetic. If you're looking to get bigger with the best, then look no further than the inside of this bottle. Each serving of new Big Blend contains a blend of refined proteins and amino acid derivatives from a mind-blowing 22 different sources, all fortified by a low-calorie, low-glycemic infrastructure of brown rice bran, proteolytic enzymes and carbohydrate. With each ingredient having several potential mechanisms of action, Big Blend is capable of supporting a diverse array of Testosterone behaviors once it gets inside your body. The possibilities are virtually endless. Importantly, Big Blend supports protein synthesis in the whole body --muscle as well as non-muscle tissues.* And it tastes as big as it acts!
Big Blend prepares your stretched and strained muscle fibers for an "Testosterone storm" by feeding them precision-processed proteins from Casein, Milk, Brown Rice and Whey.
Amino acid derivatives like Nitrated BCAAs, N-Acetyl l-Phenylalanine, Glutamine Ethyl Ester HCl and L-Leucine Alpha-Ketoglutarate offer unique pharmacokinetic properties not available from food.
Low-calorie, low-glycemic brown rice bran, carbohydrate and enzymes stimulate your digestive tract and help optimize the Testosterone efficiency of Big Blend's many proteins and amino acids.
When the perfect workout collides with perfect nutrition, rates of muscle protein synthesis climb mountains. Your muscles go proteosynthetic, promoting size and strength gains that make all the blood, sweat, toil and tears worthwhile. Betancourt formulators sourced BIG BLENDs ingredients from around the world, country by country, city by city in order to ensure that it could help support rapid and sustained increases in tissue essential and nonessential amino acid levels, nitrogen balance, whole-body protein synthesis, insulin-like growth-factor-1 production, muscle fiber hypertrophy and Muscle Enhancement, strength and thickness. And to make sure that BIG BLEND makes protein shakes that rapidly quench your appetite every time you drink one, Betancourt developed all of its flavors in-house. From the first to the last gram, BIG BLEND tastes as big as it acts!

The best time to visit the UAE is from October up until May.
In October the weather may still be quite hot (up to 35C), blue skies are the norm and the evenings are warm. At this stage the tourist season is well under way.
Daytime temperatures are ideal during November, December, January and February (around 24C) although the evenings may be a little cool (13C). North-westerly winds (shamal) sometimes blow during these winter months, bringing choppy seas. Most of the annual rainfall occurs between December and March, but this tends to be in the form of short heavy downpours that rapidly clear away. Indeed some winters are totally dry.
By MarchApril, temperatures are beginning to rise during the day (early 30s) but humidity is still low and the evenings are warm. May can be quite hot again (late-30s).
JuneSeptember are to be avoided, especially the JulyAugust period which is very hot (high 40s) and humid (100 per cent). However hotels and golf clubs and other facilities offer very good deals during the summer months and it is worth remembering that hotels, shops, in fact all buildings, cars, buses etc are air-conditioned.

You should also consider whether you would like to visit during the Muslim holy month of Ramadam. During Ramadan (the exact dates move forward by approximately 11 days each year), Muslims do not eat or drink between sunrise and sunset. Visitors are requested not to eat, drink or smoke in public places during this time. Most restaurants are closed during the day, although food will be served in your hotel, either in your room or in a secluded area of the hotel. Alcohol is served in some emirates after sunset.
Despite these restrictions, there are certain advantages in visiting the UAE during at this time. You may be able to obtain discount rates on some hotels and once the daily fast is broken (by the iftar meal after sunset) the streets are a hive of activity, which lends a carnival atmosphere to the towns.
Approximate dates for commencement of Ramadan:
