This book is a revealing look at the life and work of Nobel laureate Toni Morrison.
Toni Morrison: A Biography looks at the remarkable life of an essential American novelist, whose critically acclaimed, bestselling books offer lively, powerful depictions of black America.Toni Morrison follows the life of the woman born Chloe Ardelia Wofford from her culturally rich childhood in Lorrain, OH, through her spectacular rise as a novelist, educator, and public intellectual. The book also serves as a basic introduction to the literary influences that shaped Morrison's writing, from the early novels to the breakout success of Song of Solomon; from the overwhelming achievement of Beloved to her most recent book, A Mercy. The book also examines Morrison's other writing—criticism, essays, edited volumes, children's books—as well as her academic career, her work as an editor at Random House, and her political activism, most notably in the 2008 presidential campaign.

Northeast Utilities (NU) agreed to freeze rates and spend $300 million on reliability improvements to win support from Connecticut officials for its $5.05 billion purchase of Nstar.
"The agreement we're announcing today does many things, but most importantly it will ensure that distribution rates for our consumers will stay flat for two-and-a-half years, providing some much-needed relief for residents," Connecticut Governor Dannel Malloy said in a press release today.
The settlement is between the companies, the governor, the state attorney general and consumer counsel. It needs approval from the state's Public Utilities Regulatory Authority. The Connecticut regulator decided in January it would review the takeover after an October snowstorm cut power to Northeast Utilities' customers in the state, some for more than a week.
Northeast Utilities, based in Springfield, Massachusetts, and run from Hartford, Connecticut, agreed to buy Boston-based Nstar (NST) in October 2010 to create New England's largest utility owner. Final regulatory approval for the transaction is pending in both Massachusetts and Connecticut, the last needed to close the deal.
Northeast rose 1.2 percent to $37.55 at the close in New York. Nstar rose 1.2 percent to $49.18.
Rate Freeze
The agreement freezes distribution rates until Dec. 1, 2014, according to the release. The companies also agreed to keep Northeast Utilities' headquarters in Hartford for seven years and to maintain the aggregate number of line workers in Connecticut and Massachusetts.
The companies committed to investing $100 million annually for three years to improve the electric distribution system and $120 million in rate relief for Connecticut customers, including $25 million in rate credits for homes and businesses.
Last month, Northeast Utilities agreed to freeze power rates for four years, issue customer refunds and buy electricity from an offshore wind project as part of a settlement that is awaiting approval from Massachusetts regulators.
Connecticut regulators have scheduled an April 2 final decision on the takeover. Northeast Utilities has asked Massachusetts officials to approve the merger April 4, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Charles W. Shivery told investors on a Feb. 24 conference call.

Stuart Pearce keen to carry on as England Under-21 boss
Stuart Pearce wants to stay on as England Under-21s manager despite feeling let down by his under-performing players at the European Championship.
Having arrived on a run of nine successive wins without conceding, the tournament has been nothing short of an unmitigated disaster for the Young Lions.
Italy, Norway and Israel all triumphed against an under-cooked, under-performing England side, who leave Israel with their worst ever record at an Under-21 tournament.
It leaves Pearce's position looking more precarious than ever, but the former international full-back still hopes his contract is extended past the end of this month.
"It was a real poor performance," Pearce said after yesterday's 1-0 defeat to Israel.
"In regard to my future, my mentality has not changed in 10 days, when I spoke to you (the press) and gave you the heads up on what my mentality would be.
"Results in this tournament have not effected that one iota.
"I've no idea [whether this will impact my chances]. When you look around Europe over six years and see that our team is the only team that has been here four times running.
"We've lost very few games, bar this tournament, in tournament football over the years and played some very good football over that time, so there's a middle ground somewhere.
"We've not performed in this tournament that's for sure, there might be a multitude of reasons for that. I have to take it on the chin and obviously the players do as well."
Under-21s right-back Nathaniel Clyne took to Twitter immediately after the match, posting: "I'm a broken man get me home".
The Southampton man will get his wish when England fly home this morning, although he might want to keep his distance from Pearce, who feels let down by his players.
"I think basically if you don't turn up and work hard enough in any given tournament, you won't get any success and that was typical of today and probably the two games prior to it," he said.
"I honestly don't believe I should be here answering questions on behalf of them.
"They should be here answering questions on why their performances were so poor, to be honest with you.
"I don't think it's my responsibility at this stage to answer for a performance as bad as that.
"This is the business end of the tournament and we got what we deserved. I don't think we deserved to win a game. Credit to the Israelis, they deserved to beat us."

Now I'm just completely lost. Do I go through with an abortion and get rid of him? Do I go against what I believe? I cant have a part of someone without their consent if he's insistent on getting rid of this. He doesn't get it either. He's like what's the big deal, it's not a baby yet? I told him it's not a sweater, you don't just go return it. I explained to him what happens. I don't know what to do. This is not how it's suppose to be! I wanted this more then anything. He said if it's just about having the baby, I can go do that with anyone but that was our plan and i wanted it with him because I love him. I'm lost, if I knew it was going to be this way, I would have ran for the hills but, for the past 3 months, he bragged to people how were trying. I'm lost, tired, stressed and confused. :(
|Mon, 09-05-2011 - 4:56pm
I say DO NOT have an abortion UNLESS that is what YOU want. If you want this baby then have it. Either he will be a part of it or he won't. If you abort just for him and to stay with him you will just end up resenting him and you will probably loss him as well as your unborn child and be faced with wondering what would have been if only you would not have aborted. If he does not want this relationship or child then fine, you are a strong woman and many before you have raised perfectly wonderful, well adjusted children. Maybe this is all coming from him freaking out! Guys can be real pains sometimes. Most importantly I feel you should do at this time what is best for you and your child and everything else will fall into place.
PS I just yesterday found out that I am pg with our #3 and my husband isn't talking to me about it, so I am somewhat on the same boat.

"He finally came out and told me he didn't want me to be the mother of his children, I was going to turn them against him, he will lose his Serbian heritage (I'm from here), his kids won't know Serbian, I'll make the be catholic and shun on the orthodox...."

A wonderful Sunday brunch
I reckon I'll have to forgive that darn Yankee, Army Col. Richard Jacobs, who joined Federal Forces in 1862 to fight against my own Gen. Robert E. Lee in the Civil War.
In 1855, Jacobs bought Woodland Farm in Kentucky and raised 10 horses, one mule, seven milk cows, six working oxen, 11 cattle, 60 sheep and 15 hogs before running off to fight against the South in 1862.
He became Kentucky's Lt. Governor in 1863 and freed his Woodland Farm slaves. In 1899 he sold the farm, which was later bought in 1956 by George and Helen Egger, whose 11-year-old grandson and my son Dennis, 10, eventually formed a dance band.
The original farm was brought together when the Eggers bought 18-Mile Island and restored the original acreage to its 1848 size. Steve Wilson and Laura Lee Brown bought it from the Eggers 16 years ago.
Woodland Farm today is the largest single Kentucky property on the National Register of Historic Places and is the site of the most gorgeous Sunday Derby party in the state of Kentucky.
"The sun shone bright" on "The Old Kentucky Home" of Woodland Farm for the lovely hostess and genial host.
Their own out-of-town guests were the entire members of the Whitney Museum of American National Committee and Board of Trustees headed by charming Whitney Museum director, Adam Weinberg, and lovely deputy director, Alexandra Wheeler.
Laura Lee and Steve introduced those who were staying at their 21c Museum Hotel to the works of many leading local artists, so they could "meet them before they became so famous."
The Whitney contingent also spent time in the Woodland Farm rooms studying paintings, sculptures, photographs, fabrics and other art displayed for their visit, including watercolors by Laura Lee of her children and grandchildren.
Laura Lee's children came – Polk Deters and his wife Sarah Ashworth, and young Garvin Deters, named for her father, Garvin Brown.
Steve's son, J.B.Wilson, 35, came with his children – Avery, 10, Bradley, 8, and Mae, 5 – all adorable.
Mayor Greg Fischer and his wife Dr. Alex Gerassimides assembled the "Mother's Day" table with parents George and Mary Lee, sister, Lynn, and brothers Mark and Chris.
Laura Wells and her husband Osman Biranis of Istanbul, sat with her brother. Lee Wells and Istanbul friends Tilsin Tanberk, Rudolf Liechtenstein, and P.V. Van der Byl.
Her parents, Darrell and Anne Wells, also attended the party.
Louise Cecil, in a tangerine silk pant suit and giant orange zinnia fascinator, and I sat with famous Derborah Berke, the architect of the 21c Hotel. Deborah's husband, orthopedic surgeon Dr. Peter D. McCann, chairman of the Beth Israel Medical Center in New York (who listed himself as "Deborah's driver) sat by their daughter Tess McCann, and Alice Gray Stites.
"What kind of car do you drive for Deborah?" I asked.
"An Audi A7, 2012," he replied.
Dr. McCann is editor in chief of the American Journal of Orthopedics, which recently stated: "The University of Louisville supports one of the most outstanding departments of orthopedics in the United States."
The Menu
Chef Nancy Schoenhoff outdid herself!
- Red-veined sorrel salad with Woodland Farm Easter egg radishes and Field Day Farm asparagus;
- Kentucky bison tenderloin chili rubbed with roasted green tomato salsa;
- Cast iron skillet Indian corn cake with Woodland Farm sausage and greens;
- Potato roesti and spiced applesauce;
- And also in the Brown family, Woodford Reserve (bourbon) pecan squares!
Thanks you, dear Emily Bingham, for introducing me to Whitney American Art Museum Director Adam Greenberg and Alexandra Wheeler.
And thank you, Laura Lee and Steve, for the lovely Derby invitation I receive every year.

We' ve just purchased 50 Dell Vostro 320's (all in one design) and I am trying to test Windows 7 on them. We usually have Optiplex's which boot without fail into Deployment services/Lite Touch etc. But these new ones have a different BIOS and different NIC (Realtek opposed to Intel) and just sits there on boot trying to get an IP address and never does.
I've enabled everything I can see in BIOS (the BIOS on these are terrible compared to Dell's usual offerings) but no joy.
No new BIOS updates so what can I try? Why would it not get an IP address when everything else I boot (including laptops with Realtek NIC's) work fine?
I'll contact Dell if need be but I just cant see what they could do :-/

Then something amazing happens as delicious cheeseburgers start raining from the sky. His machine actually works! But when people greedily ask for more and more food, the machine starts to run amok, unleashing spaghetti tornadoes and giant meatballs that threaten the world! Now it's up to Flint, with the help of weather girl Sam Sparks (Anna Faris) and Steve, his talking monkey assistant, to find some way to shut down the machine before the world is covered in super-sized meatballs! Amazon.comJudi and Ron Barrett's Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs is a much-loved, whimsical book about a tiny island where food falls from the sky like rain. The book serves as a jumping-off point for Sony's animated, digital 3-D Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs which is not so much a retelling of the book as an exploration of what makes food rain from the sky on a small island in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Flint (Bill Hader), a clever young inventor with a reputation for creations gone awry, has recently completed a machine that he claims will turn water into food. Like his past failed inventions, Flint's new food-converting machine doesn't work as planned, and on its initial test run it ends up getting launched into the sky where clouds form and begin to rain cheeseburgers. The falling burgers destroy the Swallow Falls community's latest attempt to bolster its failing, sardine-dependent economy, but the Mayor's (Bruce Campbell) initial fury quickly turns to greedy anticipation as he begins to realize that food falling from the sky could serve as an innovative tourist draw. As the entire town is caught up re-defining itself as "Chew and Swallow," only Flint's father (James Caan) remains skeptical of his son's invention. Greed leads to some very strange weather events like spaghetti twisters and extra-giant food which, while providing a huge career opportunity for brainy weather intern Sam Sparks (Anna Faris) who's masquerading as an air-headed television personality, also threaten to destroy the town and its inhabitants. In the end, only the collaborative efforts of Flint, his father, and Sam can save the town of Chew and Swallow from certain destruction by the out of control invention. Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs is a funny, imaginative film that's well-animated and immensely entertaining for kids and adults. Rated PG for brief mild language, but appropriate for most ages 5 and older. --Tami Horiuchi Stills from Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs (Click for larger image) CERTAIN CONTENT THAT APPEARS ON THIS SITE COMES FROM AMAZON SERVICES LLC.

RALEIGH, N.C. (CBSLA.com/AP) — Chris Terry scored the winner in the shootout to lift the Carolina Hurricanes to a 3-2 victory over the Anaheim Ducks on Friday night.
Eric Staal and Drayson Bowman scored for Carolina in regulation; Justin Peters made 28 saves.
Peters, who is filling in for the injured Cam Ward and Anton Khudobin, helped Carolina conclude a 4-0-1 homestand by making 138 saves on 144 shots in the five games.
Corey Perry had a goal and an assist for the Ducks while Dustin Penner also scored. Ryan Getlzaf, who had one assist in the game, made his return after suffering an upper-body injury on Nov. 8.
In his first game since being activated from injured reserve on Thursday, Viktor Fasth stopped 21 shots.
After a nine-game stretch in which they went 8-0-1, the Ducks have lost three in a row. Anaheim entered Friday leading the NHL with 31 points.

ClassicsOnline Home » WHEELER, S.: Construction of Boston (The) > Review List
The Boston Cecilia's concert performance of Scott Wheeler's one-act opera on 1st April, 2007, in New England Conservatory's Jordan Hall, was hailed with a Boston Globe headline: "CONSTRUCTION OF BOSTON is a love note to the city". Drawing on a cast of brilliant, young, mostly Boston-based vocal artists, a chorus of established reputation in music old and new, and an outstanding orchestra comprised of first rank professional instrumentalists, Wheeler's witty, first foray into the operatic genre got a brilliant reading under the baton of veteran conductor Donald Teeters: "Teeters led everything with remarkable sensitivity to both text and architecture" (Boston Phoenix).

About Teaching Climate Literacy
About Teaching Principle 4
Scientific observations indicate that global climate has changed in the past, is changing now, and will change in the future. The magnitude and direction of this change is not the same at all locations on Earth.
Other materials addressing 4d
About Teaching Principle 4
Based on evidence from tree rings, other natural records, and scientific observations made around the world, Earth's average temperature is now warmer than it has been for at least the past 1,300 years. Average temperatures have increased markedly in the past 50 years, especially in the North Polar Region.
Other materials addressing 4e
About Teaching Principle 5
Environmental observations are the foundation for understanding the climate system. From the bottom of the ocean to the surface of the Sun, instruments on weather stations, buoys, satellites, and other platforms collect climate data. To learn about past climates, scientists use natural records, such as tree rings, ice cores, and sedimentary layers. Historical observations, such as native knowledge and personal journals, also document past climate change.
Other materials addressing 5b
About Teaching Principle 5
Observations, experiments, and theory are used to construct and refine computer models that represent the climate system and make predictions about its future behavior. Results from these models lead to better understanding of the linkages between the atmosphere-ocean system and climate conditions and inspire more observations and experiments. Over time, this iterative process will result in more reliable projections of future climate conditions.

Explore the map of concepts related to this benchmark
The earth's climates have changed in the past, are currently changing, and are expected to change in the future, primarily due to changes in the amount of light reaching places on the earth and the composition of the atmosphere. The burning of fossil fuels in the last century has increased the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, which has contributed to Earth's warming.

- Video features the lab and work of geoscientist Jim White.
- The video provides excellent insight into ice core research with an explanation of how ice cores are extracted and analyzed to learn about past climate. The video explains the most recent research on abrupt climate change and a straightforward explanation of what scientists can learn from past climate.
- Comments from expert scientist: Provides the viewer with a good sense of how ice cores inform our understanding of climate. Engaging visuals provide the viewer with a sense of how data are collected and analyzed to determine past climate variables. Educator should explain how the isotopes of hydrogen relate to temperature because it is not covered in the video.

Very similar to the Soxhlet extractor (refer to the laboratory tab), the Kumagawa extractor has the advantage of being able to be used at much higher temperatures and of being less bulky owing to the cartridge incorporated into the flask holder. It is often used for hydrocarbon mixtures in the petrochemical industry.
Description of the instrument:
- a variable capacity flask with standardised ground stopper
- a cartridge- holder incorporated into the flask holder
- a Vigreux condenser

Frank Fuller, president of Franklin Bank, said his commercial loan portfolio is growing. And loans to businesses smaller than $1 million in sales are up 50 percent, to $9.8 million, since 2008. But Fuller, who also oversaw foreclosures and bad-debt collections during the recession, admitted that Franklin is more conservative than in the past.
Lee Blons, executive director of Portico Collaborative, the nonprofit developer of the Nicollet Square project, said the restaurant financing was a great investment. The corner has come alive. And Butter employs several interns through an adjacent youth nonprofit that subsidizes the wages and helps the teens move through training and to permanent employment.
Nicollet Square, with 43 units, houses teens leaving foster care who are completing their educations or looking for work.
"It was wonderful to find Butter Cafe," Blons said. "Dan is so community-minded. So far so good."

- 1Jun 22, '11 by RyanCarolinaBoySee if your college with accept the CLEP exam for Human Growth and Development AKA Developmental Psych. It is offered thru many colleges to CLEP out of, and in my opinion it was an easy 3 credit exam. One good psych book and you'll ace it.
- 0Jun 22, '11 by spooky.spiderDoes anyone know if excelsior college accepts a CLEP for developmental psych?
- 0Jun 23, '11 by Pixie.RN, BSN, RN, EMT-P Senior ModeratorI took the Human Growth & Development CLEP to cover EC's lifespan dev. psych requirement. That was in 2007 or 2008, but I'm pretty sure they still accept it.
- 0Jun 23, '11 by Pixie.RN, BSN, RN, EMT-P Senior ModeratorQuote from art1sticI would stick with the CLEP test .... probably more widely accepted, but check with your school.Alright will try that college right now.
Has anyone successfully tried taking an excelsior class and attempted to transfer it to their junior college?

Last Sunday, the Israeli cabinet approved a controversial new draft law that would require non-Jews hoping to become Israeli citizens to swear a loyalty oath to the nation as a democratic and--here's the ugly bit--Jewish state.
The measure, which is aimed at foreign Arabs who come to Israeli in order to marry local Muslims or Christians, was originally proposed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's ultra-nationalist coalition partner, Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman: a settler who ran for office on the ominous slogan of "Only Lieberman Understands Arabic." Since the cabinet vote, the new bill has been denounced around the world--but the loudest criticism has come from within Israel itself.
Aluf Benn, writing in the left-leaning Ha'aretz, has argued that the move represents an attempt by Netanyahu to so alienate Israel's Arab citizens that they abandon the political process, thereby strengthening the Israeli right (since Arabs tend to vote Labor). Benn's colleague, Carlo Strenger, has gone even further, claiming that the bill betrays a fundamental hatred of liberal values on the part of the government.
While there's no question that the measure is abhorrent, smacking as it does of blood-oaths and narrow, violent, 19th century notions of nationalism, I think there are a couple of points worth keeping in mind.
One, those of us who live in multiethnic, pluralistic societies with few external threats and where everyone basically agrees on what it means to be a citizen--we have it easy. And the knowledge of our good fortune should perhaps make us just a touch slower to judge societies that don't enjoy such luxuries--or at least lead us to double-check our criticisms before letting fly. I'm not arguing for giving Israel a pass in a case like this. But I am suggesting that we should think about the kinds of fear that motivate it.
Which leads me to point number two. The Lieberman pledge is an odious attempt to deal with a problem. But that doesn't mean that the problem itself isn't real.
Certainly most Israelis--on both the left and the right--think it is. As Lieberman has highlighted in his characteristically distasteful way, Israelis see themselves as facing a serious demographic crisis--two, really. The first dates to 1967, when Israel, victorious in war, seized control of Gaza and the West Bank from Egypt and Jordan. The problem was that those chunks of territory didn't come empty: both housed large Palestinian populations. And those populations have grown quickly in the years since.
The result? Due to a birthrate much higher than Israel's Jewish population, it was only a matter of time before Jews ceased to be a numerical majority in the territory they controlled. Sure enough: In 1970, Jews represented about 70% of the population between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean. But by 1995 that figure had fallen to 56% and by 2005 (just before the Israeli withdrawal from Gaza) to 51%.
These numbers forced successive Israeli leaders to face the fact that if they were determined to hold on to the Occupied Territories, they would soon become outnumbered in their own lands. At that point, Israel would have to choose between being Jewish or democratic, but it couldn't be both. It was this hard logic that pushed such unsentimental men as Ariel Sharon and Ehud Olmert to eventually accept the logic of withdrawing from Gaza.
But as Lieberman has highlighted, the territories only represent part of the problem. Even if Israel were to shed itself completely of the West Bank today, the issue wouldn't go away. For Israel proper--as defined by its 1967 borders--also has a sizable Arab population, and that population is also growing fast (or so it is commonly believed), again thanks to a birthrate higher than that of the Jews. The rate of increase is far too fast for the likes of people like Lieberman--but also too fast for many secular Israeli Jews, who worry that once again they risk being outnumbered in their own land.

I Caught My Husband Sneaking Formula to the Twins
I have realized in the last few weeks that one of the biggest challenges of having twins is feeding them. They seem to eat all the time, around the clock, especially during a growth spurt when wearing a bra seems useless.
I am fortunate that I didn't have any challenges nursing my son three years ago and I am not having any serious issues with my girls now. My girls latched within an hour of their births and my milk came in on the third day (in spite of my C-section which can delay milk production). I do pump more than I would like, but that is mostly for efficiency. To nurse them would take longer and I feel I would have no time to do anything else (you know, trivial stuff like showering and eating).
My girls arrived five weeks early and combined they weighed less than my son when he was born. They lacked the lovely fat that makes babies look cute and plump; instead, they had skinny little chicken legs and their skin hung off them like pantyhose several sizes too big. That made regulating their body temperature a challenge, so for the couple days in the hospital before my milk emerged, we decided to give them formula. Read the rest of this entry →

I AM CHINA [event cancelled]
Xiaolu Guo (Author) in discussion with Michel Hockx (SOAS)
Date: 9 July 2014Time: 6:00 PM
Finishes: 9 July 2014Time: 7:30 PM
Venue: Russell Square: College BuildingsRoom: Kamran DJAM Lecture Theatre (Formerly G2)
Type of Event: Book Launch
We regret to inform you that this event has been cancelled.
Through a conversation with Professor Michel Hockx (SOAS) Xiaolu Guo, one of Granta's Best of Young British Novelists, discusses her new book, I AM CHINA.
The novel 'I Am China' takes us from a detention centre in Dover, where exiled Chinese musician Jian is awaiting an unknown fate, to the seedy bars of small-town America with his girlfriend Mu, and the lively streets of East London where translator Iona Kirkpatrick is feeling adrift in her life. Xiaolu Guo brings her unique blend of her heritage of ancient Chinese folk legends and her fresh take on contemporary living to this mesmerising new novel. 'I am China' is a love story of modern times and a vibrant, wise (and very funny) portrayal of multicultural society.
XIAOLU GUO was born in China and now lives in London. She is the author of Village of Stone (the translation was shortlisted for the Independent Foreign Fiction Prize and nominated for the International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award); A Concise Chinese-English Dictionary for Lovers which was shortlisted for the Orange Broadband Prize for Fiction and has been translated into twenty-four languages, 20 Fragments of a Ravenous Youth which was long-listed for the Man Asian Literary Prize, UFO in her Eyes, recently made into an award-winning film by Xiaolu herself, and a collection of short stories, Lovers in the Age of Indifference. Xiaolu Guo is a successful filmmaker of feature films and documentaries; her work has premiered all over the world, including MOMA in New York and most recently at the BFI London Film Festival and Venice Film Festival. In 2013 she was named as one of Granta's Best of Young British Novelists.
Xiaolu Guo is also Free Word Writer in Residence for Weather Stations in 2014, an international project that explores how literature and storytelling can inspire new ways of living in the context of our changing climate. Working with partners in London, Berlin, Dublin, Warsaw and Melbourne, Weather Stations asks five writers to explore how we might live differently given the degradation of our environment. Forming the backbone of the project Xiaolu Guo and her fellow Writers in Residence will work with climate and social scientists, philosophers and politicians, economists and environmentalists to publically discuss and dissect the most fundamental challenge facing humanity today – climate change. Guo will also work with Islington Arts and Media school to explore how we can inspire young citizens to fight for a more sustainable future.
Selected as one of
- Granta's Best of Young British Novelists
- Shortlisted for the Orange Prize for A Concise Chinese–English Dictionary for Lovers
- Longlisted for the Man Asian Literary Prize for 20 Fragments of a Ravenous Youth
- Longlisted for the International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award for Village of Stone

SkyHD is broadcast @ 720P & not full HD IIRC, with no plans in the foreseeable future to do so either. 720P TV's are a lot cheaper!
Nope sky hd is 1080i.
Also the reason 720p screens are cheap is due to the fact they are not Full HD. Get a Bluray player in the future and you wont be able to take full advantage.Quote:
Sky+HD supports both HD formats: 720p and 1080i. Broadcasters and programme-makers will choose which format is best for their programmes and your Sky+HD box will display the format that best works with your TV.
On the flip side however there is the issue with SD content. HD screens have to upscale and this can make a HD screen look worse than an SD screen.
I have had an Panasonic PW6 panel for 5 years and is probably the best SD panel Panasonic have made. Can support 720p and can put some HD screens to shame even now due to the excellent built in scaler.
I am planing to go the same route by replacing my aging Sky+ box with an HD box first. Need to get an older box though which have the component connections.
Aren't 720P and 1080i (which 720P panels do usually support) the same thing though?Quote:

Why are we getting carried away with 'full' HD?
are all HD and will all look better than SD, which is surely what matters.
Sky HD is broadcast in 1080i, the HD box sends the signal to your TV as 720p or 1080i. No TV signal is currently broadcast at 1080p. Games Consoles (PS3 & xbox 360) can output at 720p/1080i/1080p, but games are often rendered at a lower resolution and upscaled to keep the frame rate high. Blu-Ray & HD-DVD are the only things that are native 1080p.
HD is a moving target, just now 1080p is the max but 1440p and 2160p are on the way.

I was just pointing out the potential saving meeting the spec somabc :)
Lets say you your eyes are in good shape and you can tell the difference, buying a discounted TV from an unbranded manufacturer becuase the specs says 1080p can still give a poor picture.
I think differences in the picture quality of individual HDTVs especially at smaller sizes (<40") will make more difference than 720p vs 1080i vs 1080p. How close do you have to be to the screen to see the extra pixels?
It's like home cinema setups, you can't always assume the more speakers you have the better, 7.1>6.1>5.1...
The manufacturer (eg. Linn vs Alba) and the size of your room will make much more difference to the sound.

BlackBerry browser is the fastest, beats out Opera Mini in average page load time
New Relic's study measured the page load times on mobile browsers. And as it turns out, BlackBerry led the way with the fastest results. The average page load time on the BlackBerry 10 browser was a swift 1.55 seconds. There was a huge gap between the WebKit built BlackBerry browser, and the next fastest one. That would be Opera Mini 4.2, which had an average page load time of 4.78 seconds. Mobile Safari on the Apple iPad was next with an average page load time of 4.91 seconds.
Once a sore spot among BlackBerry users (think about how miserable surfing the web was on the BlackBerry Storm), the browser has become a source of pride for the Canadian manufacturer. It all started back in 2009 when BlackBerry purchased Torch Mobile, a company then known for its WebKit powered Iris browser.
Revealing the most popular mobile browsers is another story altogether. Safari led the way with 44% of the mobile space, followed by the 32% share owned by the Android browser. Chrome was third with an 8.7% share. Next came Opera with 8.7%. and Internet Explorer with a 3.3% slice of the mobile browser pie. The zippy BlackBerry browser was folded into a catch-all group called "others" which had a miniscule 2.2% share.
With an average page load time of 1.55 seconds, the BlackBerry 10 browser is the fastest mobile browser

The BB10 web browser really is that damn good. Just goes to show you that that being the most popular doesn't necessarily make you the best.
3. rodneyej1 (Posts: 3561; Member since: 06 Jul 2013)
Well said.. That's something I religiously preach everyday....
8. thealphageek1 (banned) (Posts: 942; Member since: 02 Feb 2013)
But you can't tell this to users of the two top OS's. They will always find a way to put down your OS of choice...
10. alterecho (Posts: 1091; Member since: 23 Feb 2012)
You don't need top two OSes to put down WP.
That said, though the browser on the WP is lacking severely in features, its the smoothest I've used/seen. Should see how smooth the BB browser compared to WP
13. rodneyej1 (Posts: 3561; Member since: 06 Jul 2013)
I disagree... You're not using it right. Read more tutorials.
16. alterecho (Posts: 1091; Member since: 23 Feb 2012)
You disagree that its the smoothest browser?
Kidding aside,
- Is there a forward button?
- The history it pulls up, when you enter the starting letters is pathetic.
- Can you scroll through the list, when it pulls up whatever it thinks is right?
- Is there a way to place both the tabs button and stop/reload button on the search bar, at the same time. I use the tabs button the most, so its the one i put on the search bar, many times, i want to stop reload a page and to do that, i have to scramble to pull up menu.
- Can you set Yahoo as the default search provide?
- Javascript is haywire on PhoneArena and similar sites.
- Can you set the homepage or favourites as Homepage?
Since it doesn't, i atleast expect it to bring up the site when i type the starting letter. But it doesn't.
It either brings up a page on the site instead of the main page or brings up something i haven't seen.
Since it doesn't do that properly, i expect it allow me to scroll through the sugeestions it brings up. It doesn't allow me to do that too.
Phew... I'm tired typing and i was only typing about the Browser and i think i've missed many more about browser..
23. thealphageek1 (banned) (Posts: 942; Member since: 02 Feb 2013)
WP, while not my favorite, is a good OS. Smooth as silk, a very well optimized for any hardware that it's put on. I prefer it to Android/iOS as well.
18. kabhijeet.16 (Posts: 664; Member since: 05 Dec 2012)
Wrong.. we appreciate everything that is good in technology. Me Android user/fan, very excited to see this and appreciate the efforts of developers of Blackberry browser. Keep it up..
19. kabhijeet.16 (Posts: 664; Member since: 05 Dec 2012)
IE in mobile OS WP is also amazing.. but WP is stale.. Me, Android user/Fan appreciates IE also..
20. thealphageek1 (banned) (Posts: 942; Member since: 02 Feb 2013)
Then you're one of the few exceptions. Most Android and iOS fans bash EVERYTHING else on this site that is not their respective favorites...
2. XperiaOptimusOne (unregistered)
I use Opera mini when I'm getting close to my data cap. I like their unique compression technology and the fact that its fast, but I still prefer chrome overall.
4. rodneyej1 (Posts: 3561; Member since: 06 Jul 2013)
I can't wait for IE11 in WP8.1..
IE10 works great, and 11 is supposed to be even better... Currently, I have no issues with IE10.
7. wolfsaviorzx (unregistered)
IE11 is pretty good on PC and on Xbox One. Still prefer Firefox (hopefully they will get native versions on RT and WinPhone). But IE makes Chrome look like a buggy mess (espically since "Chrome Apps" junk, made me go back to firefox for first time in 2 years).
12. NokiaFTW (Posts: 2058; Member since: 24 Oct 2012)
Can't wait for WP8.1 itself :D
15. rodneyej1 (Posts: 3561; Member since: 06 Jul 2013)
I can't wait either....
5. downphoenix (Posts: 2415; Member since: 19 Jun 2010)
Damn... even faster than Linux Chrome, which is on actual desktop hardware that smokes what BB has. That is very impressive!
6. a_tumiwa (Posts: 301; Member since: 16 Mar 2012)
strange... when i tested my BB Z10 vs my note2, i opened 3 website and note2 wins three of them, maybe the newest update of BB10 make the browser faster?
9. kaikuheadhunterz (Posts: 792; Member since: 18 Jul 2013)
BlackBerry Browser for Android? Anyone?
11. Tsepz_GP (Posts: 850; Member since: 12 Apr 2012)
That's nice, one has to award them something I guess for still using those BBs.
22. thealphageek1 (banned) (Posts: 942; Member since: 02 Feb 2013)
BlackBerry's are great devices, especially the ones running BB10. You should try one for a good length of time. You will be impressed.
24. Tsepz_GP (Posts: 850; Member since: 12 Apr 2012)
I've used a Q10 for quite a bit of time, I liked it but it didn't convince me to drop my Android.
25. thealphageek1 (banned) (Posts: 942; Member since: 02 Feb 2013)
Really? Using BB10 had the opposite effect on me. After using it, I just couldn't use another OS as my primary. I promptly sold all of my Android handsets.
17. tenzin (Posts: 92; Member since: 20 Dec 2013)
Also my z30 full of apps running faster on dual core then my coleague 's s4 quad core
21. thealphageek1 (banned) (Posts: 942; Member since: 02 Feb 2013)
Agreed! My Z10 is full of apps as well(I currently have 8 full pages/home screens of apps)and not only have not experienced any lag or slow down, but it's faster than my friends GNote 3.

Pork Exports to Mexico on the Rise, Benefiting Kentucky
By Dan Modlin
Per capita pork consumption in Mexico currently runs considerably lower than in the United States. However, pork producers in Kentucky and other states are investing in programs designed to help boost pork exports to that country.
The year 2012 has been a good one for such exports, according to representatives of the U.S. Meat Export Federation. The Executive Director of the Kentucky Pork Producers Association, Bonnie Jolly of Elizabethtown, says past investments in export markets are having an impact.

Culturology is a branch of social sciences specific to Eastern Europe that is concerned with the scientific understanding, description, analysis, and prediction of cultural activities and systems. The type of cultural studies regarding different social practices was therefore studied as an aspect of sociology, ethnology, and anthropology, and less as an aspect of culturology.
History of the term in Eastern Europe[edit]
The notion of culturology (Russian: Культурология, Ukrainian: Культурологія) in the Russian Empire may be traced to the late 19th and early 20th centuries and associated with Mikhail Bakhtin, Aleksei Losev, Sergey Averintsev, Georgy Gachev, Yuri Lotman, Vyacheslav Ivanov, Vladimir Toporov, and others.[1] During the Stalinist era this kind of research was superseded by Marxist social studies. Culturology re-emerged in the Soviet Union as an interdisciplinary field in the late 1960s.
After the dissolution of the Soviet Union, culturology was reintroduced into the Higher Attestation Commission's list of specialties for which scientific degrees may be awarded in the Russian Federation and is now a compulsory object of study during the first year at institutions of higher education and in secondary schools.[2] Defined as the study of human cultures, their integral systems, and their influence on human behavior, it may be formally compared to the Western discipline of cultural studies, although it has a number of important distinctions.
Culturology studies at Moscow Lomonosov University[edit]
Yuri Rozhdestvensky founded a school of Culturology at the Department of Language Studies of Moscow Lomonosov University. Rozhdestvensky's approach to the development of culture (accumulation and mutual influence of layers) can be compared to the approach used in media ecology.[citation needed]
In contemporary social sciences the word culturology was coined by American anthropologist Leslie White, who defined it as a field dedicated to the study of culture and cultural systems.[3][4] Following White, philosopher of science Mario Bunge defined culturology as the sociological, economic, political, and historical study of concrete cultural systems. "Synchronic culturology" is said to coincide with the anthropology, sociology, economics, and political ideology of cultures. By contrast, "diachronic culturology" is a component of history. According to Bunge, "scientific culturology" also differs from traditional cultural studies as the latter are often the work of idealist literary critics or pseudo-philosophers ignorant of the scientific method and incompetent in the study of social facts and concrete social systems.[5]
Bunge's systemic and materialist approach to the study of culture has given birth to a variety of new fields of research in the social sciences. Fabrice Rivault, for instance, was the first scholar to formalize and propose international political culturology as a subfield of international relations in order to understand the global cultural system, as well as its numerous subsystems, and explain how cultural variables interact with politics and economics to impact world affairs.[6] This scientific approach differs radically from culturalism, constructivism, and cultural postmodernism because it is based on logic, empiricism, systemism, and emergent materialism.[7] International political culturology is being studied by scholars around the world.[8][9]

Google Checkout Glitches
Though people are willing to let Google work out the kinks in other services such as Google Video, they may be less willing to cut Google a break with Google Checkout. One of the reasons why people buy goods online in the first place is convenience, so it's doubtful that consumers will tolerate having lengthy delays in having their orders processed.
Shopper Rhys Ludlow gave up on the service after waiting four days to have it process an order for a digital camera and wound up buying it directly from the merchant's Web site, IDG says.
"Google is stuck in a tough place -- they have to be extra diligent to prevent fraud, but
"In the long run, if they are able to minimize the problems and quickly get a handle on how to detect fraud more accurately, these glitches will be minor," Li adds. "The number of retailers using Checkout is still small and I expect that they will get it sorted out before the holiday buying season begins in earnest. If they don't, they won't be able to gain that essential user trust."Google Checkout is a key part of Google's strategy to expand further into e-commerce. For every dollar in search advertising that a merchant buys, they can process $10 in sales for free. The company also wants to use the service to illustrate how it's diversifying its revenue base beyond search advertising. eBay angered some of its sellers when it decided to not allow them to use Google Checkout on its site because the search engine's system didn't have a sufficient track record. Both Google and eBay have downplayed talk of a rivalry over the payments system. In fact, PayPal offers more features than Google Checkout, such as the funding of accounts. Wall Street analysts have noted this, but still argue that Google may add additional functions to Google Checkout at a later date. Shares of Google jumped $4.86 to $373.36. eBay rose 30 cents to $24.50.

On-board Diary: Mahon
Author: Ricardo Aguilar
Date: September 30, 2006
We will make our last stop in port to load supplies and rest a little, before finishing this year's campaign. At night, we have been carrying out bathymetric measurements of the Cañon de Menorca canyon, where we will be working during the next few days. The profile given by the computer looks very promising. From a platform of 80-90 meters, a pronounced drop begins and reaches over 1,000 meters depth. If the currents and the sea remain calm, the dives here will prove to be very interesting.
At sunrise, we enter the port of Mahon. We will refuel and then find a slip. We will dedicate the day to buying food and cleaning supplies that we need, and preparing for the next few days.
