The arts as means to experiencing "objective truth"
This is from Gary Panetta, the culture writer and resident philosopher at the Peoria (Ill.) Journal Star. He offers further commentary on this morning's post. It's too good to get lost in the comments. Thanks, Gary. -- J.S.
Thank you for this post and for raising the issue again.
"Truth" can be broken down in several ways.
(1) What's logically true or true by definition, i.e. mathematics. Start with certain premises and certain conclusions must follow.
(2) What's empirically true, i.e. what is factually the case. The standard here is "true beyond reasonable doubt." No history can claim to be the definitive, once-and-for-all time account of an important event. But some histories are more factually accurate than others, some histories are better informed than others. Just because we lack godlike, absolute knowledge doesn't relieve us from the responsibility of making reasoned choices about what we believe.
(3) What's morally or ethically true, i.e. what reflects the deep truths about what makes us human and what helps us succeed or fail to live together.
This kind of truth is difficult because it doesn't exist in the abstract -- it is always embodied in the concrete. Unless I've experienced a loving act or deed, abstract discussions of love will do me no good. Unless I can embody love or justice in my own life, just thinking about such things abstractly is pointless.
This is why the arts, especially theater and storytelling are so important. They put flesh and blood into what are otherwise abstract discussions about conscience and struggling with conscience, with guilt and the need for atonement, generosity and tight-fistedness, etc.
Such things can't be embodied in our lives or in the arts once and for all -- they have to be embodied again and again. We have to discover what they mean again and again.
Notice the word "discover." I may think I know what it means to love or to sacrifice, but experience is going to teach me whether I was correct in my presuppositions. In other words, there is such a thing as "objective truth" although we humans have a hard time grasping it.
We forget sometimes the continuity of human experience. King David is a product of an ancient, alien culture that I don't understand. But his temptation to lust and murder is perfectly contemporary. Non-Western societies have no trouble grasping the essentials of Shakespeare. There is something called collective human wisdom -- so much the worse for us if we ignore it.

Free lunches for children and youth ages 2 to 18 have begun at 67 sites throughout Lane County, thanks to the Federal Summer Food Service Program and FOOD for Lane County (FLC). No documents are required to participate.
Most sites serve meals each weekday between noon and 1 pm during the nine weeks when schools are not in session. A list of sites can be found at www.foodforlanecounty.org or call 343-2822.
• ODOT is spraying highways in the Lane County area. For more information call 1-888-996-8080.
• West Lane ODF, 935-2283, has hired Nick's Timber Services (503) 910-1120 to ground spray 10 miles of roadsides on ODF land in western Lane County with Element 3A, Element 4, Oust XP, Forester's Accord Concentrate, Agri-Dex and/or Herbimax. See ODF notice 2012-781-00363.
The question of whether Lane County Commissioners Sid Leiken, Jay Bozievich and Faye Stewart violated open meetings law with a May 3 emergency meeting that did not provide 24 hours notice is now in the hands of the Oregon courts.
When life hands you lemons, you make lemonade. But what do you do when life hands you pesticides in your urine? You fight. And when the Environmental Protection Agency attempts to delay regulations protecting salmon from pesticides, you take that agency to court.
Health Care for All Oregon has responded to the Supreme Court decision on Obama's Affordable Care Act, welcoming the survival of the legislation's consumer protections, but saying the ACA "remains inadequate" and helps entrench insurance industry profits.
Despite vocal worries from animal advocates, Lane County commissioners voted 3-2 to award a contract to run the animal services shelter to Greenhill Humane Society. However, there is no actual contract yet, something that concerned Commissioners Pete Sorenson and Rob Handy, who dissented on the vote.
Watch out, medical marijuana opponents, teen drug use isn't your scapegoat anymore.
The June 23 plane crash that killed four "family members" of the Oregon Country Fair has left the organization "broken-hearted" and "profoundly affected," General Manager Charlie Ruff said at a June 25 press conference held at OFC headquarters.
"We're going to have an amazing celebration of life and remembrance," Ruff said, noting that grief counselors from Eugene's White Bird Clinic were already circulating among members and volunteers in the Country Fair community.
Late in the summer of 2010, word began to spread that Exxon/Mobil had a plan to send Statue of Liberty-sized loads of oil extraction equipment up the Columbia River and along designated wild and scenic roads to Canada for toxic tar sands mining. After a long fight, the oil companies have called off the heavy haul.

See ODF notices 2012-771-00484 and 2012-771-00503.
Oregon's state forests are the focal points of protests and lawsuits this summer. The culminating action of the Earth First! Cascadia Bioregional Rendezvous on June 25 was a lockdown at the state Capitol protesting the increased logging and clearcuts on Oregon's state lands.
The last four days of the Olympic Trials for Track & Field at UO's Hayward Field run Thursday through Sunday, June 28-July 1, and the full schedule of events can be found at www.tracktown12.com
Here is some basic information for those who do not have convenient internet access.
Every little bit counts. At least, that's the way the folks at Project REconomy see it when it comes to foreclosure. The Oregon-based organization is holding a rally from 4 to 7 pm Sunday, June 24, at Reality Kitchen, 245 Van Buren, to "celebrate, affirm and tell the stories of victories" against the foreclosure machine, says Communications Director Michelle Glass.
The 38th annual Black Sheep Gathering is happening June 22-24 at the Lane Events Center, a "sheep to shawl" event that has grown to be recognized as one of the best of its kind in America. The BSG will have animal, wool, mohair and fiber arts competitions as well as a trade show and classes taught by renowned instructors. All events, except the classes being taught at O'Hara grade school, are free to the public.
Horses were roped by the legs, dragged by the neck and thrown to the ground in a practice called horse tripping at a recent rodeo in Jordan Valley, Ore., and one bucking horse broke its leg. A graphic video of the events from the May 19-20 Big Loop Rodeo was posted on YouTube by the animal advocacy group SHowing Animals Respect & Kindness (SHARK).
• ODOT is spraying highways in the Eugene-Springfield area. For more information call 1-888-996-8080.
• Seneca Jones Timber Company, 689-1011, plans to ground spray approximately 3 miles of roads near Fish Creek with Milestone VM, Glyphosate and Triclopyr with additives Methylated Seed Oil and Syl-Tac. See ODF notice 2012-781-00386.
Eugene is not only TrackTown USA, according to a press release from the Eugene Police Department, while the Olympic Trials are under way, it's also a Mecca for thieves. The Trials will bring top-tier athletes, tourists, music, good times and, the EPD says, an increase in crime.
Lane County has been criticized for its lack of transparency, and a June meeting of the county's Policies and Procedures Committee included a discussion of making it even more costly for the public and media to gain access to public records.
A free dental clinic for extractions only is coming up Saturday, June 23, for people who are uninsured, low income, have a tooth that needs to be removed, and have not had recent dental care. Patients need to have a phone number where they can be reached to confirm appointments.
The event is being organized by the Occupy Eugene Medical Clinic in cooperation with St. Vincent de Paul. Dentists can work on only one quadrant at a time so only one upper or lower jaw, left or right side, can be treated at this clinic. A limit of 20 people can be treated.
The giant multi-national food company, Nestlé, has its eye on Cascade Locks, a small town east of Portland, for its first water-bottling plant in the Pacific Northwest. But environmental watchdog groups and locals are having none of it.
Noted scientist, public speaker and professor Dr. Richard Jackson will be visiting cities throughout Oregon this summer to address the relationship between human health and the environmental conditions we've created in our cities and suburbs. Jackson's first stop in the 2012 Healthy Communities Speaker Series is Eugene's downtown Public Library Tuesday, June 19. A reception with the speaker begins at 5 pm, followed by a lecture and discussion from 5:45 to 7 pm.
What image comes to mind when you hear the words "global warming"? Ice shelves crashing? Shrinking glaciers? Polar bears stranded on floating ice chunks?
The Winnemem Wintu tribe of Northern California has tried for years to perform their traditional coming of age ceremony in peace on the McCloud River, but they are often met with drunken boaters who shout and disregard the location's sanctity. This year Eugene's Civil Liberties Defense Center (CLDC) is trying to help.
You may find yourself riding down the streets of Eugene for a cause this weekend. And you may be completely in the nude. Eugene's annual World Naked Bike Ride (WNBR), a mass protest of cyclists against oil dependency, initiated in 2006, is upon us again.
The International Day of Solidarity with Eco-Prisoners is June 11, and in Eugene the event will be marked with a circus of sorts at the Wayne Morse U.S. Courthouse. Last year the day was celebrated in 30 cities around the world, according to Eugene's Civil Liberties Defense Center. Organizers say there will be jugglers, fire-breathers, stilts, music, clowns and other performers.

This is what happens when cost-cutting runs amok. I remember when HP put out great products. Now they're all junk. I bought an inkjet printer late last year and had it completely stop working for me last month. A few years ago, my dad bought a laser jet made by them because he needed a high capacity printer. It jammed every few pages. The result is people began to look at alternatives.
i agree with Bryan. It will be a very long time until HP can turn its businesses around. Oh well, time to start buying stock back at this low valuation to help support the share price.
So… Leo suggested spinning off the PC business and Wall Street freaked out. Now Wall Street is citing the PC business as one of the drags on the business. Wall Street needs to chill.
HP is in big trouble and their stock price will continue to drop. They are in a commodity business and most of their profits come from over-priced ink. They totally missed mobile computing and are hanging onto PC's. IBM sold their PC business to the Chinese years ago and focused on growing their high margin software and services business. A few years ago HP said they would bury IBM…today they wish they were IBM. To compete with IBM Global Services, HP bought EDS…a services dog. EDS shareholders laughed all the way to the bank. HP is yesterdays news and their ship has sailed. HP stock is plummeting and IBM is nearly at a 52 week high.
Mike, Disagree on the EDS comment. There is plenty of evidence that EDS had solid services people, coupled with a great partner ecosystem until HP blew it up under Chainsaw Mark Hurd.
Will agree with your other points.
Kyle, I agree….EDS had good people but they lacked leadership and revenues had been flat for years. HP bought them and paid a premium and yes, Hurd did blow it up, just before he imploded. HP wrongly thought they could buy their way into the services business but unfortunately, all HP understands is hardware and enterprises aren't buying hardware anymore….it is all about the cloud.. They don't understand "enterprise" marketing and they don't offer enterprise solutions. The "enterprise" market is owned by IBM…they get it. HP does not. HP was a great company….then Carly F. bought Compaq. The quality, legacy HP folks were shown the door and the Compaq folks were now calling the shots at HP. That was the start of HP's current problems.
HP's problems have been a long time coming. I sincerely believe the problem with HP should be focused on the Board. Carli Fioni (sp) was great in sales, not management. The Board allowed Carli to purchase Compaq against the will of the majority of individual shareholders. (The mutual fund guys jumped on the sinking bandwagon. The Board has changed CEO's many times. Yes there may have been lapses in judgement but some of the CEO's pushed out the door by the Board were putting HP on the correct track. Alternative action would have been appropriate for the good of HP. Now another CEO with a sales backgroud. The Board doesn't have industry knowledge, obviously. Examine the individual Board member resumes, if you have a difficult time agreeing with me. It is time for the shareholders bring on board qualified Board members and not a group of yes men who collect a substantial fee — FOR WHAT ?
Enterprises are not buying "cloud", unless you extend the definition so far that it has no meaning. Amazon, Rackspace, etc have rounding error "cloud" revenues which were basically just a share shift from what was called hosting or SaaS. No one can name an enterprise that took any major portion of the environment, let alone all of it, to a "cloud" service. It is just marketing.
very nice blog Thank you!

Nokia Normandy Android phone release date has not been confirmed, but it will be a reality soon. There are reasons to believe that after acquiring the smartphone maker, software giant Microsoft will allow Nokia to produce Android smartphones.
A new report is out that Normandy, an entry level smartphone being manufactured by Nokia, and that would run on Android OS, is being developed at "full steam ahead" speed. This news quite contrasts with the fact that Microsoft is in the process of taking over Nokia. And since this is so, why would it let a Nokia-Andoid marriage be, when the coupling should actually be Nokia-Windows OS?
But confirming the above report by the Verge, AllThingsD added that Microsoft is actually going to let the Nokia-Android phone live and has no plans to shut off its production. Nokia had been testing Google's OS Android internally, and a phone that would combine the goodness of Nokia and Android is a dream come true for many an Android smartphone user. It has been reported that the branch of Nokia that tests Android OS fork takes design elements from Microsoft's Windows Phone, but it runs Android apps.
Now Microsoft is not shutting down the production of such a dream phone even though the Nokia takeover is still pending, but whether Microsoft will let Normandy see the light of the day is another matter altogether. There is more behind Microsoft's permission with Normandy than plain generosity. It is being seen as a trial to use Android and familiarize entry-level users with the look of Windows Phone rather than rely on Nokia's existing Asha platform. So when Microsoft could not beat Android, it has decioded to use its popularity to promote its own OS.
So the buzz has it that Normandy will be an Android device but will hardly look or feel like one. Reminds one of the recently launched Goophone i5C, that is also an Android device buts looks like the iPhone 5C. Normandy is apparently set for a 2014 launch.

9 weeks ago, we were celebrating the Paschal Triduum of Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and Easter Sunday.
- We recalled the original Passover and Exodus from Egypt, some 1400 years earlier, when the Lord rescued the People of Israel from slavery in Egypt. This was accomplished partly through the sacrifice of the Passover Lamb, and also through the parting of the Red Sea, so that they could pass through on dry land. And so they were rescued from Egypt and set on their way to the Promised Land.
- And so we celebrated the fulfillment of this foreshadowing in our Lord Jesus Christ, who is the true Passover Lamb. For by giving himself in sacrifice, he set us free not merely from earthly slavery, but from Satan and sin and death. And he passed through, not merely an earthly sea, but death itself, to open the transformed life of the Resurrection. Thus we have been saved and set on our way to the New Heavens and the New Earth.

The Tennessee Titans didn't have a need at offensive tackle going into the 2014 NFL Draft, but they decided that Taylor Lewan was just too good to pass up on at No. 11. With Justin Gilbert and Anthony Barr off the board, the move made sense, especially since veteran left tackle Michael Roos will hit free agency next season. Although the Titans did sign Michael Oher to a sizeable contract this offseason, Lewan should be a significantly better player than Oher, who is being overpaid to start at right tackle.
Roos's contract may end in 2015, but it's possible that the Titans could cut ties with the 31-year-old before then. TitanInsider.com's Terry McCormick reports that "there is talk" that the Titans "might move" Roos this offseason after drafting Lewan, and it's interesting to note that McCormick didn't explicitly state "release" or "cut", meaning that the Titans would likely place Roos on the trading block in an effort to gauge interest.
That said, nobody would be crazy enough to show interest in somebody set to make $6.625 million in base salary on an expiring contract, so the Titans would have to release Roos if they truly want to save money. I have a strong feeling they already regret giving that deal to Oher, and Lewan is too good to keep on the bench as a rookie. If the Titans decide to keep Roos around and suck up the cap hit (he's still a great player, after all), then Lewan should start over Oher. But if they cut ties with Roos this offseason, then Lewan will protect Jake Locker's blindside in 2014.

In the papers today 12.02.08: The Death and Life of Great Landmarks
It's a landmark day in the papers. Well, a day with a lot of stories on landmarks, landmarking, and things that may become landmarks – always a hot topic, particularly these days with all the stress over the economy and an increasing fixation on urban competitiveness. It's back to the economic theory of early 1990s for us! Paul Krugman must be thrilled.

Work-life balance, job discrimination top of mind for military women
The Pentagon recently announced it would open up 14,000 combat positions to female troops. While women in uniform say the decision will lend "legitimacy" to the frontline roles they already fill, they say job discrimination pales in comparison to the difficulty of raising a family while serving.

Almost all religions have at their foundation the idea that our days spent here on earth are only waiting for the time when we will be spirited away to that "better place." The unfortunate result of our perpetrating the myth that while we wait helpless in our sinfulness (not generally seen as a path to personal responsibility) we are powerless, while thinking that what we have here is a temporary layover on an expendable planet. This is thinking we can no longer afford.
Here is quote from the book, "The Humboldt Current" by Aaron Sachs: "What he suggested was that we would 'worship' not whatever force might have been responsible for the cosmos, but worship of the cosmos itself. Not so much a relationship with the Creator, but with Creation. The beautiful whole, the overall community in nature of which humans are part. The mutual interdependence and the connection of the magical and mysterious relations of all things. Everything in relation to everything else."
Want to be a part of something? Guess what, it's your lucky day.
— Robert M. Speer, Chico

Celine Yousefzadeh on Holding Fashion Shows to Fundraise for Students in Areas of Conflict
This nineteen-year-old college sophomore launched 'Fashion with Compassion' to support young people in regions of Israel.
CAUSE: In 2008, Celine Yousefzadeh co-founded Fashion with Compassion with an aim to raise money for the Israeli city of Sderot. What began as a one-off fashion show at her high school in Los Angeles has turned into a model for philanthropy and activism. Celine is mobilizing students across the country (and soon, in London) to hold fashion shows that raise money for charities based in Israel. She's the recent recipient of the $36,000 Diller Teen Tikkun Olam Award from the Helen Diller Family Foundation, and will use that money to expand Fashion with Compassion.
GET INVOLVED: If you're a student, you can bring Fashion with Compassion to your school and gain experience in event planning, advertising, and business management. Fashion with Compassion is also looking for vendors and sponsors, and has worked with brands such as True Religion, Adidas, and OPI.
"I went to other high schools that had fashion show charity events, and I saw how the dynamic of a fashion show could bring high school students together. It's a great agent to raise awareness and funds. In the summer of 2007, when rockets were attacking Sderot, a city in Israel, I wanted to take immediate action while also bringing something new and innovative to my high school. The reason why Fashion with Compassion became so successful was because of that powerful combination."
"Each year, I focus on a different charitable organization based in Israel. The first year, we fundraised for the main high school in the city of Sderot. Our goal in choosing an organization is to help the future of students—not just current students. Last year, we raised funds for Save A Child's Heart, through which doctors based in Israel donate their time to kids who need heart surgery. We raised $10,000 dollars that year and actually helped save one child's life."
"As a teenage girl, fashion is interesting to me. And when I'm creating a fashion show, it's empowering. You learn a tremendous amount by having this responsibility, and it gives you professional skills before you even graduate high school. Now, this has become an annual event at my high school. I'm also going to different high schools around the country and even around the world; I'm working with a school in London to launch Fashion with Compassion, and trying to get a school in Boston to work with me. My goal is to have high schools have their own Fashion with Compassion events, and I'm contacting students to inform them about what's going on. I can serve as a mentor by giving direction and answering questions when needed."
"Philanthropic work takes dedication, but it's also about knowing that you can't let other people's expectations stop you from achieving your goals. When I started Fashion with Compassion, I was fifteen years old, but I didn't talk to corporate sponsors like I was fifteen. Know in your head that you're capable."

The Unfilmables: A List of the Hardest Novels to Film
Remembrance of Things Past
Also known as 'In Search of Lost Time' (which makes it sound like a Jules Verne yarn), Marcel Proust's contribution to the world of literature is so difficult to film as it's so damn long. The novel is divided into seven books, each one long enough alone! Although I've only managed to read the first two books, the entire volume seems to be autobiographical, about a sickly young man who aspires to be a writer, despite the distraction of 19th Century society. Proust's novels incorporate the idea of scents, sounds, and certain objects pushing associated memories to the fore. Probably more suited as a TV serial, there have been a few films, mostly adapting one of the books. The best is Time Regained, starring Catherine Deneuve and John Malkovich
If anyone can do it: The closing moments of Terence Malick's New Worlddisplayed the kind of editing that can summarise years in seconds with aesthetic brilliance. He's the man for such a mammoth, ethereal task, though half of it would probably be shots of trees.
A first galley proof of À la recherche du temps perdu: Du côté de chez Swann with Proust's handwritten corrections.

Theory, Research & Other Dirty Words In Language Policy & Planning [Prof Rob Dunbar]
Professor Rob Dunbar - who heads up the SOILLSE project - presents his inaugural lecture, the first in the UHI public lecture series presented fully in Gaelic. A common feature of minority language maintenance and revitalisation movements is the fundamental role that passionate activists have in them. Frequently, though, they have only a limited background in language planning theory or practice, and a lack of information to inform and to guide their development initiatives. In this lecture, the theoretical tools relevant to language policy and planning for minority languages such as Gaelic, the experience on which such tools are based, and the research needs and priorities which such tools help us to define will be considered. Can theory and research inform and support policy making and practice in ways that allow us to avoid the 'culture clash'?

Windies hampered by the absence of big hitters: Tino Best
Fast bowler Tino Best has conceded that the West Indies have suffered from the absence of their big hitters, due to injuries, following the team's heavy loss to New Zealand in the first T20 International.
The latest assessment of the Windies poor run in New Zealand follows their crushing 81 runs loss at Eden Garden Saturday that handed the home side a one-nil lead in the two match series.
"I thought New Zealand played well. They played to their strengths so all credit to them," Best said Monday.
"I think that in our situation right now, we don't have all our big hitters. In T20s, you need all your six hitters. But we have one more game to go and can level the series there."
New Zealand set the visitors 190 to chase but the West Indies crumbled to end on 108 for 8.
The West Indies now need to win the second game in Wellington Wednesday to square the series before returning home.
"I can tell you, if our key players were here like Chris Gayle, Kieron Pollard, Darren Sammy and Dwayne Smith, it would be a whole different ballgame," said Best.
"When we played them (New Zealand) in the Caribbean with our full-strength team, they didn't turn up but here, we're in their backyard and a bit weakened."

Cannot Install Driver for SD Card Reader in Samsung R519
Up until now I've never used the SD Card reader in my laptop, but now I want to use it however it's not showing up under My Computer. I have downloaded the 'MS Hotfix MemoryCard' listed under Software (which only appears for WinXP) here:
Support for NP-R519
But when I try to install (Running as Administrator), the command prompt flashes for a second then nothing happens. I've tried restarting anyway in case it had installed but my SD card is still not recognised. I've also tried running in compatibility mode with WinXP SP2 and Vista SP2 - no luck.
This card reader apparently is SDHC compatible, but my card is only 2GB anyway so its 100% compatible. I've done a google search and it seems a lot of people have problems with this one particular device/driver.
Also I've looked under Device Manager but I'm not sure where it would be listed, though I'm confident its actually not listed at all.
So what should I try next? I'd rather get it working than have to buy an adapter.
|My System Specs
|29 Mar 2012
Win 7 Ultimate x64 desktop, Win 8.1.1 x64 laptop, Win 7 Home x64 netbook, Win 8.1.1 x64 tablet
That MS Hotfix is NOT a driver for your memory card, it's a software patch for XP so it shouldn't apply to Win 7.
A memory card reader will be listed in Device Manager as a USB Host Controller. When a card is inserted into the reader, then the card will be listed as a disk drive in Device Manager.
Is the card you are using formatted? Does anything happen when you insert the card in the slot? You should hear the same sound when the card is inserted or ejected as you do when you connect/disconnect a USB device.
When viewing Device Manager, are there any devices listed showing the yellow exclamation sign indicating an issue?
|My System Specs
|29 Mar 2012
Ah right.
Nope nothing happens when I put the card in, no sound or anything. I've even tried searching for it which does nothing. The card is formatted (I've used my camera to hook it up previously and move files to and from it), its definitely a software side problem.
Theres no yellow exclamation marks in device manager, here's a shot of the USB tab, not sure which one is the SD and like I said I'm not sure if its even listed as the laptop isn't picking it up at all.
One last thing I forgot to mention is this laptop was originally a Vista laptop, but because I bought as Windows 7 was released I got a free upgrade and hence had to download all the new drivers from that site, but of course the SD Card reader wasn't included or has some other problem.

Hi Aaron10, the card reader may be part of the chipset drivers Support for NP-R519 but normally they are made by Ricoh, Marvell etc, Looking on the Samsung website I could find no reference to the manufacturer of your card Will continue to search
|My System Specs
|29 Mar 2012
Thanks, I've been searching myself and installing different drivers but no luck so far.
EDIT: Ok so some more searching I believe the SD reader is by ASUS.
|My System Specs
|30 Mar 2012
In Device Manager, I clicked Action > Add Legacy Device and found two things:
Under SD host Adapters: Found something by 'Ricoh'
Under Memory technology driver: Found 'Realtek PCIE CardReader'
After adding both, they have the yellow triangle next to them with error code 31. I've searched on google and downloaded countless drivers for both manufacturers and it's still not working. Looks like I'm a tad closer to finding a solution now hopefully someone here may be more familiar with these.
|My System Specs
|05 Apr 2012
Ok I'm getting close now. Using DriverMax I was able to install a bunch of driver updates, and since, there has been a new entry in Device Manager:
> IDE ATA/ADAPI controllers
>> Ricoh PCIE SD Bus Host Adapter
When double clicking on it, it says:
"No drivers are installed for this device.", but there's no yellow triangle like under the SD Host Adapters section, so I removed that. Now, here's what it says in Driver File Details:
Provider: REDC
File Version: 6.13.03.04
Copyright: Copyright c 2001-2010, Ricoh Company Ltd.,
Digital Signer: Not digitally signed
Under the details tab > Property > Driver Node Strong Name:
|My System Specs
|05 Apr 2012
OK instead of just installing drivers willy nilly hoping something will fix it, ain't gonna work.
If you post the make (yeh Samsung) model and all the other details I can look up the spec. for it and should be able to post you a link to the correct driver.
|My System Specs
|05 Apr 2012
Sorry, missed that. Thanks.
I have searched all the places I can think of, there is no reference to the driver for the SD, it is right to say that it would be part of the chipset drivers. Looking through the installer .inf and .ini files, there is no reference in either set of drivers.
I suppose you have downloaded both driver packs. The ISMS zipped pack and the Chipset driver zip ?

Hey I'm a subscriber of Seventeen and read your blog when this project first came out and it was great. Today i received a copy of the latest Seventeen and I noticed their most stand out ad (they used a thicker paper) was a warning ad from the FDA about how smoking causes lung cancer. That's great, but the upon further analysis it wasn't. It seems like to them the only way us silly girls would ever understand the complex consequences of smoking would be if they scared us with the possibility of getting old. of course the model they used was conventionally attractive too: white, blond-hair blue-eyes, and thin. It's a disappointment for the issue that has an article on feminism.

Let's pledge to be #protransprochoice in 2014!
My name is Beck Martens, I'm genderqueer, and I'm directly impacted by attacks on reproductive rights. But the language of the pro-choice movement doesn't recognize me. That's why I and activist friends Alice, a cis-woman and Calliope, a trans-woman, are asking NARAL and Planned Parenthood to commit to trans* inclusivity in all future campaigns.
The rhetoric of the pro-choice movement is typically based around the assumption that only folks who identify as women are hurt by restrictions on reproductive health care - such as abortion and contraception. #StandWithTexasWomen took the stage in 2013; "Trust Women" has been the mantra of this movement for decades. This language excludes trans* and gender non-conforming (GNC) people and thus, the movement has failed to address our reproductive and sexual health needs.
By becoming trans* inclusive – and by demonstrating this through campaigns, educational literature, and in services provided – NARAL and Planned Parenthood will prove their commitment to trans* folks' health and wellness. By using inclusive language they will make the trans* community more visible and therefore creating a safer environment for trans* and GNC people. NARAL and Planned Parenthood have raised awareness and taken part in activism on behalf of trans* and GNC folks in the past, but it's time for them to fully commit to being allies to the trans* community.
We know that NARAL and Planned Parenthood are #ProTransProChoice; we just want them to show it.
Look what I'm working on with friends Beck and Calliope ya'll!

Don't worry about feeling beautiful every day, learn how to have a good day when you look your worst.
This is the singular piece of advice that helped me most in high school, y'all. It's exhausting to try to feel pretty 24/7, it's much more successful to learn that you can feel ugly and still be deserving of love and respect. It's a hard process, but so, so worth it.
Hi everyone! My sister Melissa is 10-years-old, disabled, and petitioning American Girl to release an American Girl doll with a disability. "Disabled girls are American girls too. We face challenges and overcome them everyday." Disabled girls deserve to see themselves represented.
Please, sign her petition and share it with your friends to support an American Girl who has a disability.
For all the disabled girls out there who deserve to know that they are beautiful and loved, just as they are. For my sister.
I hate when people are like "The safest way to have sex is abstinence!1!1" I mean imagine if that was the way we were taught everything.
"What's the safest way to study?"
When confidence relies on beauty, bad days for the body become bad days for the mind. Girls' sense of worth crumbles, leaving them insecure and ignorant as to how to handle it; emphasizing beauty as a requirement for self-love means that the absence of beauty must lead to an absence of love. Teaching girls how to avoid these days is impossible, teach them to handle these days. Teach girls that they are funny, smart, engaging, compassionate, kind, insightful and valuable, and then figure out a better way to teach them that, if they want to, they can feel beautiful, too.
Q:I just went through your whole blog and I am so impressed
Thank you! P.S Your icon makes me smile =)

Q:Hi ladies! I just want you to know that I think you're awesome. I remember reading 17 magazine and having some real WTF moments, and nowhere to call that crap out. Now I'm 30 and I'm still like dang..what? So... I'm super stoked that you awesome ladies are questioning The Man and taking him to town via tumblr and being amazing. I'm just proud of you and I don't even know you! I wanted to tell you!
Thank you so much for your kind message! <3 <3
Happy Halloween!

It was very close to our destination & it was easy to book online.
The room was pretty terrible, but I expected this based on the area. We were especially bothered by the strong mold smell, which was so bad that we had to wash all our clothes, even clean ones, when we got home. The beds were also very hard.This motel is pretty much what you would expect for this area: the middle of nowhere. The room had a strong damp, moldy smell that got into all of our clothes, even ones we didn't wear, so we had to wash everything when we got home. The beds were very hard and uncomfortable, not to mention noisy (whenever my husband moved, the sound of the springs woke me up), but they were actually cleaner than we expected (we did not need to put on the extra sheets we brought with us just in case). The owner seemed nice enough, but since we only had a 5 minute interaction with her, this really didn't make up for how bad the room was. You will also be abou...

December 2007 Archives
The calendar year of 2007 actually promised quite a lot as far as Newcastle United were concerned - but not for the first time in history it eventually conjured up absolutely nowt!
This time 12 months ago we were within swinging distance of the top six, still in the FA Cup and still in Europe.
And going into 2008, a lot of Geordies are already starting to wonder - what next?
Freddy Shepherd has gone and Mike Ashley and Chris Mort are in which delighted the majority of Toon fans yet sadly results on the pitch have not changed a great deal and United are pretty much in the same position they were in 12 months ago - apart from we aren't in Europe this time around.
And although the up and coming January transfer window is a chance to change things as far as Big Sam is concerned there is no golden promise of cash so far from the Toon board meaning, as ever, the next three games are crucial.
Newcastle United's battling performance in the capital today wasnâÂÂt enough to ease the pressure on Sam Allardyce as his side were beaten by a controversial late goal.
Salomon KalouâÂÂs goal near the end bagged the points for Chelsea in a 2-1 win for the Blues but Newcastle could have picked up all three points.
Newcastle headed for Stamford Bridge looking to become the first team in 73 Premier League games to beat Chelsea against a patched up Blues side.
Anybody who went to Wigan will know that Newcastle United surely can't do any worse than they did at the JJB Stadium when they head to Stamford Bridge.
Or can they?
I don't want to be negative but you have to fear the worst.
For starters United couldn't win at Chelsea when they had a good team, Keegan and Robson included.
In truth we have been terrible at the Bridge and it doesn't look like it will get better does it?
Apart from the occasional controversial outburst about playing for England, United's vicious supporters and reflections on mistakes he'd made earlier in his career at Man City, Joey Barton has - by his own standards - had a pretty quiet opening to his career with Newcastle United.
That was until Barton - who is already waiting trial for a training ground incident with a former Man City team-mate - was charged with assault.
It's no good going into exactly what happened at 5.30am in the morning yesterday - when most of us were either tucked up in bed after the dismal defeat of Wigan or the revelers amongst us still burning the midnight oil or tucking into a low standard kebab - because until the latest drama unfolds we can't speculate too much.
Certainly Barton's reputation walks into the room before him and there will be plenty of people with things to say right now.
But Sam Allardyce must be wondering just what he got himself into when he decided that Newcastle United was the next step up the ladder in his managerial career.
It was the bloke that was dressed as a hot dog that I felt sorry for the most after Newcastle United's latest failure in Wigan.
Seriously, all of the effort he'd made to watch that.
He and 4,999 others as well of course - but to go all the way to Wigan on Boxing Day, pay the money to hire a crazy outfit, buy your ticket, have a few pre-match drinks with friends, sing your heart out and then sit back and watch your team struggle against a team that will struggle to get out of the bottom half, it's enough to push most people to the limit.
It certainly wasn't the top day out that most people had anticipated and not for the first time the fans snapped towards the end, but I can't blame them - I was feeling bad enough myself yet my heart really did go out to them.
NEWCASTLE UNITED were gunned down by Wigan Athletic today as Steve Bruce played the role of party pooper for the 5,000 strong Toon Army.
It was Unitedâ≢s fourth straight loss at the JJB Stadium but Wigan were full value for their 1-0 win as Ryan Taylor bagged the only goal of the game.
Big Sam did not hesitate to wield the axe following the inept performance against Derby County with the Toon boss making FIVE changes to the side that drew 2-2 with the Rams at St Jamesâ≢s Park three days earlier.
Toon owner Mike Ashley watched from the away section as Newcastle supporters lost their cool at the end of a deeply disappointing day.
Even the Derby fans were chanting how bad they were during Newcastle United's latest twist in a season which still promises nothing but inconsistency and mid-table mediocrity - unless something changes dramatically.
In fact Derby fans were ridiculing us because they were that bad and they'd still taken four points from six from us, which makes up a big bulk of their dismal tally of seven!
It would be easy to come out with lots of seasonal flavoured phrases and try to make a joke out of things but this is well beyond that.
It's five games in a row we've handed the visitors the lead now and it's actually quite amazing that we have 26 points in the bag.
NEWCASTLE UNITED survived a real scare at St James's Park today after leaving it late to save their blushes against doomed Derby County.
United had to come from behind twice against the Rams but even Mark Viduka's late equaliser could not stop the boos ringing out come the final whistle against the Premier League's poorest side.
The Magpies made just one change the side that won 1-0 at Fulham last week with skipper Geremi dropped to the bench and Mark Viduka promoted to the starting line-up.
Let's face it Sam Allardyce is on a hiding to nothing against Derby County but he'll be hoping for a convincing win when the doomed and relegation haunted Rams show up on Tynside come Sunday.
Big Sam has already told us not to expect miracles in the transfer window next month or said as much when he revealed that he isn't a big fan of panic buying in the January sales.
But for 90 minutes on Sunday it's all about the players that Newcastle have at their disposal right now.
In the end it was a win.
But that didn't stop many Toon fans expressing fears that the late victory at Craven Cottage has merely papered over a few wide cracks.
Had United failed to beat a woeful Fulham side in the capital on Saturday, those with doubts over a squad that is lacking depth and is about to get smaller next month would have been heard loud and clear come the final whistle at the Cottage.

Demon City Shinjuku (Makaitoshi Shinjuku, also translated as Hell City Shinjuku and Monster City) is a novel by Hideyuki Kikuchi that was adapted into an anime movie in 1988, directed by Yoshiaki Kawajiri.The movie begins with a battle between fates, Levih Rah versus the hero Genichirou. Levih Rah has allowed himself to be possessed in order to gain the incredible powers of evil and plans to summon demons to conquer the world. He defeats Genichirou and offers up the Shinjuku area of Tokyo as a sacrifice, setting off an earthquake that devastates the area while leaving the surrounding districts untouched, and promises his demonic allies that in ten years he will hand the world over to them. Shinjuku becomes a demon-infested wasteland commonly known as "Demon City."Ten years later, Levih Rah is almost ready to unleash the demons on the rest of the world. To keep his old master Agni Lai from interfering, he attacks the World President Koizumi Rama, the man who is leading the rest of the world toward peace, in order to keep Master Lai busy protecting him. What Levih Rah does not realize is that Genichirou has a son, Kyouya Izayoi, who has inherited all of his father's talent and more. Following an emotional plea from the president's daughter, Sayaka Rama, the reluctant Kyouya follows her into Demon City with only three days to hone his skills enough to stop Levih Rah from creating hell on earth.The film was released in North America by Central Park Media in 1994. Portions of the opening fight scene were featured in the 1995 cyberpunk film Johnny Mnemonic.

Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
S-Comm's realities are far different. First, ICE's policies include prosecutorial discretion when individual equities are present, which the OIG does not address. Yet 46,486 parents of U.S. citizen children were deported in the first half of 2011, many as a result of S-Comm. At least 5,100 American children were sent to foster care. Second, S-Comm has removed only 27 percent Priority 1 individuals, not the 71 percent indicated by the OIG's sample. Nationwide, more than 56 percent of S-Comm deportees had either no convictions (26 percent) or one or two misdemeanor convictions (30 percent). In Travis County, Texas, for example, S-Comm deported more than 1,000 people after arrests for "minor infractions such as traffic tickets or public intoxication."

You will still want to run screaming the other way when you see anything described as "Brooklyn art punk," but that is only natural and right.
