After hitting a season-high one week earlier, ABC's Saturday Night Football tied a season low over the weekend.
Regional college football action featuring Arizona/Stanford in 82% of markets drew just a 2.8 overnight rating on ABC Saturday night — down 30% from last year (CT/CIN*: 4.0), and down 66% from 2008 (TEX/TTU: 8.2).
The 2.8 is tied as the lowest Saturday Night Football overnight of the season, and the third-lowest overnight in the five season history of the program.
This is only the fourth time since ABC began airing Saturday Night Football in 2006 that overnight ratings have dipped below 3.0.
Just one week earlier, regional action featuring another Pac-10 matchup (Oregon/USC) earned a substantially higher 5.3 overnight.
Speaking of Oregon, ABC fared better earlier in the day with afternoon coverage featuring the nation's newest #1 team.
Regional action featuring Washington/Oregon in 40% of TV markets earned a 3.6 overnight on ABC Saturday afternoon — still down 5% from last year (OSU/PSU*: 3.8), but up 29% from 2008 (FSU/GT*: 2.8).
Neither game of ABC's doubleheader could match Alabama/LSU on CBS, which drew a 4.4 overnight.

Storage Coverage In 80221
There are 12,693 households in 80221 Denver and approximately 120 storage units, meaning there are 0.00945 units per household. When compared to the ratio of units-to-households in other ZIP codes nationwide, 80221 has moderately low coverage, ranking in at the 45th percentile, which could make it less easy to find a unit here than elsewhere. 80221 has a moderately high number of storage units per household compared to other ZIP codes in Colorado, ranking at the 51st percentile.

Now two time Bellator lightweight champ Eddie Alvarez is already back in the gym in South Florida working out. It is not all work though for Alvarez as he is seen here spending some quality time with his son. After the year Eddie had fighting the promotion in court it is hard not to be happy for him. We wish him nothing but good things and hope after his next fight he makes it into the UFC to really see where he stands with the best lightweights in the world. Thanks to Ryan Loco for the picture.

Skating with the Stars
Here's the cold, hard fact about Skating with the Stars' Rebecca Budig: She skated as a kid, but she assures you that gives her no advantage. Why? "We all have to be able to skate somewhat!" she tells TVGuide.com. "I can't even imagine if [I didn't know how to skate and] had to learn from scratch. It'd be even harder." Learning toe loops and salchows isn't the only difficult aspect of the upcoming ABC show for the actress, who's partnered with pairs specialist Fred Palascak — Budig plans to continue working on All My Children during her run on Skating. Find out how she's juggling acting and skating, who she thinks her biggest competition is, and why she wants to make her sister jealous.

Rebecca Budig
Is Greens the killer? The murder of David Hayward on ABC's All My Children takes a trippy turn next week when his wife Greenlee — played by Rebecca Budig — admits she forged several letters to make it appear that the evil doc committed suicide. But is the guy really dead? A rep for Vincent Irizarry, who played David, recently posted a statement on the actor's official Facebook page saying Irizarry was "still in negotiations" with the show — suggesting this might be yet another phony "death" in Pine Valley. Irizarry then issued a follow-up statement claiming this announcement was "unauthorized and premature" but never said it was untrue. What ev. TV Guide Magazine spoke to Budig in the midst of the Irizarry hoo-hah and got her take on the whodunit. Guess which soap she hopes to land on if Greens gets the electric chair!

Fresh off her second stint as All My Children's "real Greenlee," Rebecca Budig has grabbed a guest-starring gig on CBS' How I Met Your Mother.
In one of this season's final episodes, Budig will play Holly, a new girlfriend of Ted's, TVGuide.com has learned exclusively.
The casting of Budig is perhaps 17 percent extra-interesting to longtime AMC viewers who know that Abigail Spencer (who played Pine Valley's virginal Becca Tyree) also has "dated" Ted. Spencer played "Blah Blah," a Season 3 girlfriend whose name Ted could never remember.

Debbi Morgan by Steve Fenn/ABC
Over the past couple of months, many daytime greats have returned to the suds some in old roles, some in new ones. So how are these prodigal kids doing? Michael Logan shares his take.Debbi Morgan and Darnell Williams (All My Children) It's been worth a gazillion plot contrivances to see Angie back with her "dead" Jesse after 20 long years. Oh, how we've longed for her blazing soul and Earth Mother passion! How much we've missed his sass and cool and cut-to-the-chase honesty! And aren't they still incomprehensibly beautiful together?

text: HomeTVOne Life to LiveFormer One Life to Live Head Writer Michael Malone to Speak at Duke University Thursday Jamey Giddens April 25, 2012 One Life to Live 7 Comments The man responsible for the powerful Marty Saybrooke (Susan Haskell) gang rape storyline, as well as the saga of gay teen Billy Douglas (Ryan Phillippe) on ABC Daytime's One Life to Live, has gone academic. Michael Malone will be speaking at noon, this Thursday, April 26 at Duke University. The best-selling novelist, short story writer and TV veteran currently teaches a course at the University entitled "American Dreams, American Movies." His lecture, part of Duke's "Office Hours" program, will be on the art of storytelling. The event is being webcast via Duke's Ustream channel. Are you excited to hear what Malone has to say about storytelling? Watch a few clips from his iconic first stint on OLTL below, then sound off in the comments! 7 Responses david46208 April 25, 2012 I suggest Ron C., Frank V. Scott H., Hogan S., Maria Arena Bell and Brad Bell all need to be watching and listening to what this man has to say. Because none of the four remaining soaps are at least 80% good. It is like 50% at best for Days/GH, between 30-50% for B&B and 20-30% for Y&R. It seems like Agnes Nixon needs to have head writer conference and teach these people how to write a fully engaging soap that fans want to watch. Because they all seem to forget what made them so good in the 70's, 80's and 90's. It is time for constitutional soap convention! Douglas Marland and Bill Bell's pictures would be hanging in the background too. As apart of the conference we have these required courses: -Casting 101: On how to cast actors that "pop" off the screen. -Douglas Marlands Rules on How Not To Wreck A Soap: On why these old rules still apply in the new school of soap. -Diversity and inclusion: How to cast and write for non-white American ethnic and racial groups of all sexual orientations. -Bill Bell's Creativity 102: Learning how to pull story from air. -Daytime Social relevance with Agnes Nixon: On how to write socially relevant stories that educate and entertain audiences, while drawing mainstream media attention. -The Necessity of Continuity: On how to draw on a soap's true history to have relevant impact on contemporary storylines. -Generation Y: On how to create engaging younger characters that will take your soap into the future. -Story Bible 304 with Sally Sussman Morina: Sally who once wrote a 7 year story bible for Generations teaches the art of writing long story. -Vision 360: In this class we discuss how to create a compelling vision for a soap that wins fan approval. -Deal With network Brass: How to navigate through the slosh of network brash to create and maintain the best story's and characters the audience loves. – The Art of Controversy with Agnes Nixon: The Queen of daytime shares with you tips from her experiences at how to use controversial storylines to your advantage. Log in to Reply MsAgentProvocateur1 April 25, 2012 And- How to Tell If Your Writing Room Doesn't Pass Muster (if it doesn't meet certain criteria, time to clean house) Log in to Reply soapfan616 April 25, 2012 david46208—you are my soap fan hero of the day. I agree with every word you wrote. Unfortunately today's "wisdom" is that what was good storytelling during the heydays of Bell, Marland, Nixon and Labine is not relevant today. I read the arguments all the time that the rules need to be thrown out, that given this era's ultra-competitive environment that what used to be good storytelling can no longer capture an audience. We get reminded that Guza brought GH the top rating in the 18-49 demo as if that has anything to do with good story telling or moving this dying genre forward. We get reminded of the "wonderful" and "miraculous" things FV/RC did at OLTL. Camp has won out over quality. Hacks are rewarded and re-hired and praised. Soaps are written to the lowest level stereotypical soap fan, not to anyone with an IQ above double digits. It's highly unlikely today's writers even know how bad they are. I've heard many spout their "love" of writers like Nixon and Labine and Marland yet they churn out stories like the "Tale of Two Todd's", "I don't know if my serial killer husband got me pregnant or if his twin brother raped me", and "oops I thought it was just a cold but I caught DID but still run a successful fashion magazine". I did not always appreciate all that Mr. Malone did at OLTL. I was never a daily viewer. However, by today's lack of standards, he was practically a genius. He seemed to understand that soaps had to change to survive yet never forgot that the story is the thing. If the story doesn't resonate, nothing else matters. Unfortunately, hacks who came after Malone had to re-write and change his stories. Look what happened to Marty and Todd. Look who became the hero and who got trampled on. Networks don't care enough about the shows to hire anyone with any level of success at writing a soap. They're just buying time until the fans give up and they replace it with a talk show. Log in to Reply david46208 April 25, 2012 @everyone: Well said! And much needed. Log in to Reply Jabot1991 April 26, 2012 I absolutely LOVED his OLTL, both stints… Him and Josh Griffith made OLTL so great. I wish they were never fired/left in 2004 or they could have brought them back to the show in 2008 along with Linda Gottlieb as EP and they stayed till the end. The stories would have been different. Log in to Reply Ryan-Scott April 26, 2012 He is a good writer. I wish I could go to this event. Log in to Reply liason4real April 26, 2012 Malone and Griffin didn't stick around long with Frons running the soaps.

It's just breathtaking to hear her sing. It's so clear, like glass. And so gentle.. Fragile.. yet powerful at the same time. Like I said, the girl has some serious talent. I'm just glad she hasn't gotten all Hollywood and tried to loose weight, or take drugs, or drink alcohol.
She's perfect.
Its either Chester Bennington from Linkin Park, or Aaron Lewis from Staind.
Both singers can sing a wide rage of styles, from a soft melodies (Staind's "Zoe Jane" and Linkin Parks "The Little Things You Give Away" for example), to harsh intense singing (Staind's "Mudshovel" and Linkin Park's "Bleed it Out" for example).

UNTETHER Discusses: What should Apple do with $100 billion?
Last week Apple posted a financial quarter unlike any other tech company in the history of the industry. Beyond the impressive sales numbers (36 million iPhones, 15 million iPads), I'm most interested in the cash Apple has been able to generate (let's save what that many iOS users means for another post). With a net profit of 13 billion, Apple is now sitting on 97.6 billion in cash and cash equivalents. So what does a company hoarding cash as quickly as Apple do with 100 billion dollars?
Jennifer Daly:
If I was Apple and I had $100B to spend:
1. I would buy Adobe which means I would own Flash. You can't hate something you own right?
As an iPad user, I hate that I don't have Flash support. Apple usually does a good job of bringing its customers to a new level of love and obsession with their products. This is usually how I feel about my glossy white gadgets, but it's quickly erased when I get an error message on my iPad when surfing the net and clicking Twitter links.
2. I would give out tuition grants.
Just because Steve Jobs couldn't afford to graduate from Stanford doesn't mean everyone has to be in that boat. It's widely known that Jobs had to drop out due to tuition costs, and tuition grants are a tax deduction, which would give Apple more money to pay off the FCC (see below).
3. I would buy Sprint.
Skip the middle man and get a network of your own, Apple.
4. Pay off the FCC so I can buy Sprint.
Joking! But I am sure there is some loophole that would allow me to start putting the FCC on an undisclosed retainer.
5. Affiliate with the Ivey League.
Apple needs to get into the Old Boys Club. Branding a university faculty could be a first step. Apple has essentially become an ideology, and branding it with an Ivey League school could make way for economic models or design philosophies to be named after Apple. A good example of this is BCG (Boston Consulting Group) with their BCG Matrix. I think every university student studying business learns this ideology- you can't put a price on the intangible ROI that would produce. Also, what student wouldn't love to say they got a degree in Steve Jobs?
Douglas Soltys:
I love that you would start with something Apple would never do with good reason and end with something they would never do for more selfish reasons – it shows some out of the box thinking.
Apple would never buy Adobe because Adobe is killing mobile Flash (HTML5 – the future is now!). As for Apple University… Apple likes to see itself as an outsider/disrupter, so joining the ranks of the Ivey League doesn't seem to sit right. Also, why own one school when you can be in EVERY school. I think the same thing goes for student grants. It's been about 15 years since Steve Jobs killed Apple's corporate philanthropy division, and one might argue that now would be a good time to reassess. But Apple at its heart is a product company, and I think it would much rather help students by providing them great products to use in school than to pay for their education.
Now buying a telecom, that's very interesting. It's well known now that Apple investigated building its own network before ultimately deciding it was ultimately easier to partner with AT&T. And while it has built up relationships with all the major telcos over the past five years, I'm sure they'd rather never have to deal with them again, because Apple sees them as impediment to doing things 'the Apple way'. Could you imagine Apple running its own telco and the dramatic impact it would have in just the US market? Half of the phones Verizon sold last quarter were iPhones, and 80% of the phones AT&T sold were iPhones! In becoming the only game in town for iPhones, Apple would automatically be one of the top three carriers and would have a greater ability to dictate the future technologies used in smartphones.
I'm not sure if they would buy a telco, or if they would choose to build one from the ground up, however. As the insightful Sascha Segan over at PC Mag put it, Apple isn't set up for major acquisitions because one of its strengths is corporate culture – buying another large company would simply dilute the number of 'A players' under its command.
How about you, Rob? Does Apple buy, or does it build? If so, then what?
Rob Woodbridge:
Why does Apple have to do anything with the money? Seriously. Other companies buying big ticket items today are trying to get out of their core business because they were caught flat-footed as a result of Apple. Apple will shore up its ecosystem – it just spent $500M on Anobit, whose technology is already in the iPhone, iPad and MacBook Air products. This is what Apple does – it buys companies so that it can guarantee shipment and delivery dates without compromise (or competition).
You see companies like Google paring down its offerings since Sergei took over. Google is killing vanity projects and focusing on its core business (which is still search, right?) while spending on patents and smaller companies so it can continue to compete. Apple doesn't need to do this because it already went through the same process when Jobs came back in 15 years ago. If anything, it will spend small amounts (like the Siri and Lala acquisitions) on young technology companies and nurture them into important future bets. Apple is smart to sit on a pile of cash and if we see it make a big bet (a la Motorola), I would be worried about the leadership.
Jennifer Daly:
At first, I completely agreed with Rob. Then I completely disagreed and now I am just on the fence.
I say this is because I can't help but revert back to the number one investment rule: never stick all your eggs in one basket. It's important to diversify. I think Apple sitting on a pile of money and buying up smaller undervalued start ups (for next to nothing), whose sole purpose is to push their core business forward, is safe today, but what about tomorrow? It's a very siloed way of business building.
It also takes years to see ROI on start ups (even if your buying in volume with success rates of 1 for every 100). Stocks can drop hundreds of dollars in a day… you have to proportionately wager your bets in a capitalistic model. Time is usually not on anyone's side. We have to remember as big as Apple is, its a BABY when it comes to reigning over the American economy and world markets! Everyone keeps forgetting that back in 2002 Apple was only worth $7/share. It didn't break $100/share until 2007. Apple has exploded in the last 5 years… and as confident as I am in its products, I am hesitant to say it will always be king.
I am biased on two accounts: I worked at Rogers and grew up riding the waves of the auto industry. So I have experienced the pain of a giant falling, and I have had a little bit exposure to the strategic mortar used in the foundation of large billion dollar company.
People were having this same conversation 20 years ago about the big three auto companies – who once were centre stage like Apple is today. Look what happened to them. Of the the big three, the only company that didn't receive a government bail out was Ford. That was because when times were good, it bought up Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo. When times got tough, it dipped into its design reserves from these companies and revolutionized Ford vehicle platforms. Say what you want about Ford, but it did a great job of burning the wood of the house to keep the fire going.
At the end of the day, both strategies (1. holding 2. diversifying) are risky. The question is which one is going to provide the best insurance to kept the crown jewels safe in the long run?
Douglas Soltys:
Ok, so assuming they have to do something with that money to diversify their business, the question remains as to what type of diversification. So I will offer two different options, both borrowed from people smarter than me.
Via Sascha again, the first, and likely easiest, option would be to diversify into other sectors that would strengthen Apple's core business, which is making 'insanely great' integrated products. Apple loves to own as much of the end to end product experience as possible, integrating hardware and software for the benefit of the consumer. But while Apple builds a large amount of the software for its products (OS, core apps like iTunes, Safari, etc..), it doesn't fully control the component or manufacturing. Investing here would likely allow Apple to build its products quicker and cheaper (or at least with better margins), and be agile in the creation of new product lines. Greater accountability in their production might even help improve the living conditions of the people that make Apple products.
The alternative would be to jump into an important and developing space where it has no presence, or has to this point failed to make a dent. As one UNTETHER reader asks, why not buy Twitter? Apple would essentially be buying into social media and search in one fell swoop. Also, who wouldn't want to see some great, deep level Twitter/Siri integration?
Since this email thread has now surpassed 100 billion words, we'll leave it up to commenters to decide if we're crazy or not.

Not have all eggs in one basket – is always a good move. But invest in a telco or become a service provider – nah. Why restrict -when you can be with all the other telcos who are falling over each other to provide Apple products? End to end product experience and diversifying into something altogether new – might be a good one. Imagine if Apple were to get into something like tele medicine. Custom iPads for health industry. They would definitely create great and unique product experience.
Hi Pavi, thanks for following the post!
I like your idea for the target of iPads and the health industry. With an aging population on our hands (world wide) it would be smart for Apple to continue dominating this niche market of users. We already see in hospitals nurses and doctors pulling up patient x-rays and test results sent digitally straight from labs- but I am sure there is much more they can do with the iPad.
And it's not just the health industry that Apple has the advantage over tablet makers using Android or BlackBerry…. iPad was first to have robust client releases from Oracle, providing business users access to alerts, ad hoc analysis, dashboards, reporting and OLAP content. I know Oracle… no big deal and it has a very Windows 3.0 NT look and feel- but is the backbone warehousing loads of logistic data, billing info, accounting entries for most major corporations.
So maybe you're right, Apple should really dig into the App space, build systems that they would own the licensing for. They already have a solid track record for building amazing OS platforms and Apps…. so what's stopping them to build out that part of the business to customize for more than just the regular consumer.

Certificate of Liability insurance
With more businesses adopting new technology in their IT departments, the U.S. tech sector is booming. With so many tech startups getting off the ground, it is imperative they are able to secure appropriate insurance policies, reported InsuranceNewsNet.
The website outlined some types of insurance tech businesses can use to protect themselves. One type, management liability insurance, covers damages that can stem from discrimination and harassment, as well as theft and forgery.
Another policy businesses can purchase is errors and omissions insurance, which provides essential coverage for technology companies. This type of insurance can provide coverage related to personal injury, copyright issues and intellectual property liability, according to INN.
Insurance is needed to cover businesses in the technology sector, but a recent development may allow technology to supplement insurance, according to The Associated Press.
The AP said a recently proposed bill from Democratic Assemblyman Mike Gatto from Los Angeles may allow people to show proof of insurance from an application on their smartphone during a traffic stop.
"We are the state where there's so much technological capital," Gatto told the AP. "We run the risk of losing that value if we don't update our laws from time to time."
"We were not only pleased with the insurance product but more important - your skilled and professional staff. Corina Conyne did an excellent job in managing the whole process: from answering questions and providing important information. When your management staff hires talented people such as Corina, it speaks very well of the standards by which you operate by. We are very pleased that we found out about your company and it's services."
Thank you. Tim Klubnikin

Does Life Insurance Cover Funeral Expenses?
- 3680 POINTSJ Scott BurkePROPresident, Newbury Inc., Evansville, IndianaThe right kind of life insurance can be used to cover a funeral.
Don't count on paying for your funeral with term life insurance or insurance through your employer. The term will usually end before you die. The employer insurance is not a good plan for funeral planning because most people live to retirement age which is after the employer insurance ends.
For funeral planning either buy a prepaid funeral plan from a funeral home or make sure you have at least 10,000 of guaranteed whole-life insurance. Either of those will work fine.Answered on April 13, 2013+11 +1+1 this answer
- 16125 POINTSBob VineyardPROFounder, Georgia Medicare Plans, Atlanta,GALife insurance serves many purposes. Life insurance can be used to pay off debts of the estate, replace income, cover final expenses including unpaid medical bills and funeral expenses.
In the case of life insurance on children (a much debated issue) the proceeds can provide a financial cushion so the parents don't have to return to work the next day but instead will have time to grieve with dignity.
Life insurance can also be used to replace the lost services of a non-working spouse.
The most important thing is, to make sure the life insurance policy is in force when it is needed.Answered on April 14, 2013+11 +1+1 this answer
- 60620 POINTSPeggy MacePROPresident and Senior Agent, Outlook Life, Most of the U.S.Life insurance works well for covering funeral expenses. Life insurance does not go through probate, so you are able to pay the funeral home quickly. Most funeral homes are happy to work with you with final expense or pre-need life insurance policies. When you purchase life insurance for that purpose, your beneficiary can use what is left over to pay other bills.Answered on November 6, 2013+0

Dulicineapassive income
may be an upside idea – by ecomonising 6 years ago
10 years after introducing 43 Things to the world, we have decided we have met our last goal: completing the incredible experience that has been 43 Things. Please join us in giving one last cheer to all the folks who have shared their goals with the world, as well as all the people who have worked at The Robot Co-op to build this incredible website. We won a Webby Award, published a book, and brought happiness to a lot of people.
Starting today, 43 Things users can export their goals and entries from the site. Starting August 15, we will make the site "read only". 43 Things users will still be able to view the site and export their content, but we won't be taking any new content from users. We hope to leave the site up for folks to see and download their content until the end of the year. Ending on New Year's Eve takes us full circle.
It has been a long ride (one of our original goals was to "build a company that lasts at least 2 years" - we beat that one!) While we wish the site could live on, it has suffered from a number of challenges - changes in how people use the site, the advertising industry, and how search engines view the site. We wish the outcome was different – but we've always been realistic about when our goals are met and when they aren't.
As of today, you will be able to download your goals and entries. See more about that on the FAQ page. Thanks for 10 great years of goal-setting and achieving.

may be an upside idea – by ecomonising 6 years ago
I have never had any interest or understanding about money
so if i wish for this the wishing will have to help me acieve this goal as I have not got a clue how I could – so why is a goal?
Maybe ecause it would give me more time to achieve my other goals
maybe I should just make more use of the free time that I do have
Like see if there are any goals I can work on this afternoon
I may pick some blackberries and make some blackberry and apple pies for the frezzer but that is not passive. 6 years ago
Don't know how to do this either 6 years ago
Disliking my job is giving me more desire to getr this one up and running.
I need to find that illusive property 7 years ago
I so need to have more disposable income than I currently do and I don't want to have to take any more time away from my other priorities in life – family, rest and play that I NEED to get a passive income.
I'm not a big risk taker so investing in shares etc is difficult for me to get into as I love the idea of making money but cant stand the idea of the potential to loose it just as easily. And it takes time to make the right decisions if you play the stock market. So I'm looking at commercial property investments. Lets hope it works. 7 years ago

Hello Dan!
Thanks. Glad you mentioned the portamento, because that brings me onto one
of the brilliant features of the Oddysey, that I used extensively over all the
time I was there. It's duophonic. It has two oscillators and if you only play
one note, it sounds like your average monophonic synth. But if you play two
notes, the oscillators are split. So brilliant, because with one other mono
synth - and there was a choice :-) - I could play full chords, moving melodies
from one instrument to another, wile doing so.
Sorry for the hardware rambling, but it was the only time, I ever came
across such a feature.
Warm regards

Cognitive development is the increased functioning and enhanced performance in areas related to cognition, such as thinking, understanding, memory, perceptual skills and language. Examples of important researchers and theorists in the area of cognitive development in children are Jean Piaget and Lev Vygotsky.
Intelligence Testing
Intelligence testing refers to the application of standardized tests in attempt to measure and assess intelligence. The first mental testing may have been performed in China in the form of the imperial examination system, and modern intelligence testing commenced in France in the 19th century as a means of separating mental retardation from mental illness (1). The French psychologists Alfred Binet, Victor Henri, and Theodore Simo, published the Binet-Simon test in 1905. This test was focused on verbal abilities and was meant to identify mental retardation in school children. The score on the test would then be termed the child's mental age. The American psychologist Henry Goddard translated Binet's work in 1910, and it was used by the Eugenics movement to give them credibility in diagnosing mental retardation, resulting in thousands of women being forcibly sterilized based on their test scores (2).
Intelligence Testing focuses on any of a number of cognitive abilities, including:
Spatial imaging
General knowledge
Well-known modern IQ tests include Raven's Progressive Matrices, Wechsler Intelligence scale for children, Wechsler adult intelligence scale, woodcock-Johnson sets of cognitive abilities, Stanford-binet, and the Kaufman assessment battery for children.

Word Superiority Effect
The word superiority effect (WSE) refers to the phenomenon that people can easier recognize letters presented within words as compared to isolated letters and to letters presented within nonword (orthographically illegal, unpronounceable letter array) strings. The effect was first described by Cattell (1886), and important contributions came from Reicher (1969) and Wheeler (1970).

Multi-store Models of Memory
Multi-store models of memory propose that human memory consists of several modes of memory that work together. In the Atkinson and Shiffrin model, there are three modes: sensory memory (SM), short-term memory (STM) and long-term memory (LTM).
Gestalt Psychology Principles
Gestalt psychology is an approach to studying the mind and brain operating on the principle that the brain is holistic, parallel and analog, with self-organizing tendencies.
Gestalt psychology principles are:
Figure-ground principle, which describes the process of identifying a figure from the background.
Proximity, which describes the idea that if objects are close together we tend to group them together.
Similarity, which describes the tendency of the brain to group together objects that are alike.
The principle of closure explains how sometimes we see a complete image even if it's incomplete.
The principle of continuity explains how the brain prefers to see a continuous motion as opposed to a series of smaller parts.
Split Brain Experiments
In some severe cases of epilepsy, patients have undergone a callosotomy, which is a procedure where the corpus collosum (a set of nerve fibres connecting the two cerebral hemispheres) is severed. This has proven successful in controlling severe seizures (1). Tests carried out on these 'split-brain' patients have yielded some interesting results. In the 1960s, Michael Gazzaniga and Roger Sperry designed tests for investigating how the separation of the hemispheres had effected the mental capacities of the patients. When presenting visual or tactile information to the right visual field (left hemisphere) of the patients (who, as most people, had a left-brain dominance for language processing), they were able to verbalise and write what they saw or felt. When the same information was presented to the left visual field (right hemisphere), they were unable to elicit the same verbal and written responses. Despite not having the same verbal capacities, when the patients were asked to give non-verbal responses to the visual and tactile information presented to the right hemisphere, they were able to do so. For example, when an object such as a cigarette was presented, the split-brain patients were able to match it to an image of an ashtray, when given several images to choose from. Based on these types of tests, researchers have concluded that, despite there being sub-cortical connections between the two hemispheres, some aspects of mental functioning work independently within each hemisphere (2).

Craik and Lockhart Levels of Processing Framework
The levels of processing framework proposed by Fergus I.M. Craig and Robert S. Lockhart in 1972, refers to three levels of encoding any information: visual encoding (concerned with visual stimuli), phonemic encoding (concerned with visual and auditory stimuli) and semantic encoding (concerned with meaning). Shallow processing, (visual and phonemic processing), leads to a fragile memory trace that is susceptible to rapid decay, and deep processing (semantic processing) results in a more durable memory trace.
Baddely and Hitch Model of Working Memory
The Baddely and Hitch model of working memory is composed of four components:
- The central executive, which acts as supervisory system and controls the flow of information to and from its slave systems.
- The phonological loop, which deals with sound or phonological information; any auditory verbal information is assumed to enter automatically into the phonological store.
- The visuo-spatial sketchpad, which holds information about what we see; it is used in the temporary storage and manipulation of spatial and visual information, such as remembering shapes and colors, or the location of objects in space. It is also involved in tasks which involve planning of spatial movements, such as planning one's way through a complex building
- The episodic buffer, which is a third slave system, and is dedicated to linking information across domains to form integrated units of visual, spatial, and verbal information with time sequencing or chronological ordering, such as the memory of a story or a movie scene.
Method of Loci Technique
Context-dependent Cues
Context dependent cues are environmental cues which aid in accessing the memories formed in a certain context. It has been demonstrated that the recall of specific episodes and information improves when the context present at encoding and retrieval are the same.
Sensory Memory
Sensory memory is a form of memory that lies within the sensory apparatus, and has separate hypothesized registers for the different sense modalities. Iconic memory receives all the visual information and echoic memory receives all the audio information. Only the information we pay attention to is maintained and passed to the short-term memory.
Concept Formation or Concept Learning
Concept formation is a process where the individual learns to form concepts by sorting and classifying entities experienced in the world, by their defining characteristics.
Atkinson and Shiffrin Modal Model of Human Memory
According to the Atkinson and Shiffrin modal model, memory is structured into three stores: sensory memory (a short duration store that encodes mainly visual and auditory information), short-term memory (consists of the information that is stored up to 30 seconds) and long-term memory (information that is stored for longer than 30 seconds). The information passes between the stores in a linear way and is passed from short-term memory to long-term memory through repetition.
Dual Code Theory
According to dual code theory, hypothesized by Allan Paivio in 1971, people perceive verbal and nonverbal stimuli through their sensory systems (eyes and ears). From here the information is passed into the verbal and nonverbal associative systems, that work independently or together to produce verbal and nonverbal responses.
Implicit and Explicit Memory
Implicit memory is a type of memory in which previous experiences aid in the performance of a task without conscious awareness of these previous experiences. This allows people to remember how to tie their shoes or ride a bicycle without consciously thinking about these activities. Explicit memory is the conscious, intentional recollection of previous experiences and information. People use explicit memory throughout the day, such as remembering the time of an appointment or recollecting an event from years ago.
Memory, Types of
Person Perception
Person perception refers to the impressions people form about the people around them, using subjective processes such as the effects of physical appearance, social schemas, stereotypes, illusory correlations, the spotlight effect and discrimination (in-groups/out-groups).
Depth Perception
Depth perception is the visual ability to perceive the world in three dimensions, enabling judgments of distance. Depth perception arises from a variety of depth cues, which are typically classified into monocular and binocular cues.
Monocular cues can provide depth information when viewing a scene with one eye, and include:
- Motion parallax: This effect can be seen clearly when driving in a car. Nearby things pass quickly, while far off objects appear stationary.
- Perspective: An example would be standing on a straight road, looking down the road, and noticing the road narrows as it goes off in the distance.
- Aerial perspective: Images seem blurryer the farther away they are.
- Overlap or interposition: If one object partially blocks the view of another object, it is percieved as being closer.
- Texture gradient: The texture of an object can be seen clearly when closeby, but becomes less and less apparent the farther away the object is.
Binocular cues provide depth information when viewing a scene with both eyes, and include:
- Stereopsis or retinal disparity: By using two images of the same scene obtained from slightly different angles (right and left eyes), the brain can calculate depth in the visual scene providing a major means of depth perception.
- Convergence: This is the simultaneous inward movement of both eyes toward each other when viewing an object, stretching the eye muscles and helping in depth/distance perception.
Schedules of Reinforcement
Schedules of reinforcement are modes of systematically sequencing positive and negative reinforcement. There are four types of schedules: fixed ratio, variable ratio, fixed interval and variable interval. Ratio refers to the number of behaviors needed before achieving a positive or negative reinforcement. Interval refers to the time between reinforcements.

Discussion in 'Political Discussion' started by mikey, Jul 22, 2006.
May they rest in Peace and Honor as Heros & Defenders of Freedom.
Very nice sentiments.
They paid the ultimate price for serving their country over seas.
Mikey get to jerk off two more times.
It is irrelevant...they signed up to serve their country...they did so bravely and honorably. No person signs up to serve their country ever knows what they are going to do.
In Rhode Island...in Central Falls there is a memorial for a soldier who was in the lead Humvee when attacking in Grenada...he died with a bullet to the forehead.
Nowhere is his memorial will you find any questions of why he had to die in Grenada...for what cause...right or wrong? It's a testimony to their bravery that they served with no sidenotes.
How about all those who die on base or while in training...are they any less brave or any less a hero..no, they are not. They are all heros the instant they sign their name to join.
I remember a poster who briefly showed up over here and got banned almost instantly...I forget the screen name. But he came here claiming to know you personally and what he said was not very nice about your service in the military. You must have complained to Ian because he was gone as fast as he came...must have struck a nerve.
I rememered that...but I never questioned you on it...because I felt then as I do now that anyone who serves is a hero for representing their country...right or wrong is irrelevant...what makes countries strong is unity which leads to strength over weakness.
Better to die strong than to die a coward...none better than the Samurai's taught everyone that lesson. But I'll say one more thing...I regret everyday I didn't get a chance to serve..I tried over and over and even falsified medical records to get in...they would not take me.
If I was given a choice to this day that tomorrow I will die and here are my choices. you can die a soldier in Iraq or you can die a civilian crossing a street...I would die 100 times in Iraq because to die for your country is the highest honor in the world.
The correctness of war is never realized till 10-20 years down the line...brave people know this and cowards exploit it. To me...that's what liberals are...they are cowards who have no sense of the reality of this cruel world we live in and why we need soldiers to live in peace to the greatest extent possible.
Bravo FBN. Bravo!
I have acknowledged repeatedly that the method Bush used to go to war was deceitfull. The threat Saddam posed with WMD's was very small with the inspectors and the no-fly zone in place.
But that war existed up until our men and women reached Baghdad. After those several days of harmony the WOT and the war against evil fascists and the war for democracy was underway.
I have been consistent in my sayings on this. IMO the WMD's were a very minor reason to go to war in Iraq...but they were the only legal reason to get in there...Bush exploited it and our Congress voted for it. The WMD issue was used to get in there to fight the WOT and the War for Democracy to stabilize the Middle East. The American public was left out of the loop unfortunately.
Was it necessary? Could we have done it another way? Would the world have helped achieve this...NO. Because Russia and France were too busy plundering Iraq while people suffered and were being killed. Had Saddam stayed in power he would have outpaced Hitler's killing of innocent people.
So...what should we have done and/or the world have done?
We went to war and we never had a large debate on the topic
in Congress. No fact finding missions, no new testimony and nothing new beyond what we knew or was fabricated.
So, for better or worse...the best possible outcome is to fight for peace and democracy for the people of Iraq and the world.
Our brave men and women are voluntarily signing up to do this everyday. because they believe in the war that is being fought now regardless of what war we fought in the beginning. because they know their sacrifice will save many lives and will be good for the world.
We cannot turn back now...leaving now would lead to an explosion of terrorism around the world...most all military and political experts realize this and many will lose their political jobs due to this idealogy.
But, for the good of the world we persist. for the good of themselves and the world Israel persists. for the good of the world and themselves Russia and China and all the world continue the fight against terrorism and radical Islam either around the world or in their own countries.
Our men and women are fighting the greatest World War ever imagined except by believers of radical Islam...they have dreamed of this war for thousands of years. The internet was the tool that enabled what they visioned for thousands of years...a world where Islam had conquered all and Allah would return and praise the believers and damn the infidels.
If one is not a hero for fighting to save the world than the term hero simply has no meaning at all. WMD's is the triumphant call of cowards and the clueless who will realize...when the next President and the President after that and after that are all fighting the same war that joyfully(in their eyes) began on 9/11/2001.
Separate names with a comma.

Prosopis velutina
Arizona Mesquite
Fabaceae (Leguminosae)
Deciduous, Shrubs, Trees
Native to deserts in the Southwest, Mexico, and South America. Though hardy in other environments, mesquites are most commonly grown in deserts, where they are among the toughest and most useful of trees. Much of their success in these harsh conditions is due to their roots, which will travel great distances to find water (a trait that will cause problems if plants tap into drainage or sewer lines). Once established, these plants are highly drought-tolerant, but quickly adapt to regular lawn watering. In poor, rocky soil and without additional water, mesquites are shrubby; in deep soil where roots can reach ground water, or where irrigation is generous, they grow rapidly to about 30 ft. tall, with a picturesque, spreading canopy approximately as wide as high.Prosopis velutina
Native from southeastern Arizona into Mexico and West Texas. Resembles P. glandulosa, which reaches 30 ft. high and wide, but P. velutina may be smaller and shrubbier when grown in poor, dry conditions. Common in Arizona.

fancy doesnt doesnt like too many other dogs, but she does like my friend Suzannes dachsund, Ellie. So, whenever I know I'm going to her house- I bring Fancy. 6 years ago
10 years after introducing 43 Things to the world, we have decided we have met our last goal: completing the incredible experience that has been 43 Things. Please join us in giving one last cheer to all the folks who have shared their goals with the world, as well as all the people who have worked at The Robot Co-op to build this incredible website. We won a Webby Award, published a book, and brought happiness to a lot of people.
Starting today, 43 Things users can export their goals and entries from the site. Starting August 15, we will make the site "read only". 43 Things users will still be able to view the site and export their content, but we won't be taking any new content from users. We hope to leave the site up for folks to see and download their content until the end of the year. Ending on New Year's Eve takes us full circle.
It has been a long ride (one of our original goals was to "build a company that lasts at least 2 years" - we beat that one!) While we wish the site could live on, it has suffered from a number of challenges - changes in how people use the site, the advertising industry, and how search engines view the site. We wish the outcome was different – but we've always been realistic about when our goals are met and when they aren't.
As of today, you will be able to download your goals and entries. See more about that on the FAQ page. Thanks for 10 great years of goal-setting and achieving.

Fancy & I went to central park last week to meet up with my friend. As we walked the perimeter, she saw the Horses (pulling cariages) and she lunged right at them. Thank GOD she was on a leash. people just laughed. she's too gangsta for central park. she's got beef with the horses!! 6 years ago
i don't have a dog anymore. :( goodbye coco. 7 years ago
The bark park is one big mud puddle, NOT for my poodle! My puppy River is all white! 7 years ago
My baby is such a good dog and he loves to run free. His 1st birthday is in 2 days. Taking him to the bark park is hard right now because it is full of mud and it;s hard for me to bath him because of my pain. Also the gas money to get him there is hard to come by. I walk him around home but I can't run so he can't and the city has a law about tethering dogs in my own yard.
But I will work hard to get him there as much as possible. 7 years ago
so i took her with me to SOHO. it was too cold for a little ass dog like her to be walking all day, so she was in my bag most of the time… but i know she enjoys it because she behaves when i put her in the bag. i guess, since she gets lonely at home all day she knows if she wants to go with me- she better act right. she just hates other animals. fucked up right? what can i do though- shes already 12 yrs old. people think shes a puppy though. she just has a very young attitude i guess
photo by Paubleau 7 years ago
People regularly take sick, aggressive or just plain rude dogs to dog parks, and many of those people are clueless that they're doing anything wrong.
I've taken my dog to the dog park a few times, cos I thought he'd have a lot of fun. However, I won't be doing it any more after a few bad experiences with bullying and/or aggressive and/or unsupervised dogs. I've learned that it's safer to exercise him on his own, or with a small group of dogs that I know well. It's just not worth the risk to turn him loose with strange dogs with unknown temperaments, whose owners may be irresponsible dropkicks.
I would especially NEVER take a puppy to a dog park. One bad experience can ruin a young pup's temperament for life, making it permanently fearful or aggressive towards strange dogs. 8 years ago
it has been months since i last took her to this dog park. my friend's coworker brought her doggy out as well, so we were hoping it will be a cute doggy playdate.
well, wrong.
ivy is basically a crowd controller. that annoying classmate you had that bosses you around and tell you to stop having fun. unfortunately her doggy boyfriend ran off with other new firends and ivy was left alone playing with us.
but she seemed very happy as usual. i guess as long as she is happy- i should be content. 8 years ago

Hey guys,
I'm about to brew my 2nd batch of beer. I decided to go (BIG) w/ a Dragons Milk clone (OG = 1.080 FG = 1.018).New Holland Brew Co. Dragons Milk
I went to my LHBS & they built the recipe for me. The guy that runs the shop said I should make a starter & pitch a 2nd vial of yeast (using liquid WL) when I pitch the starter (just pour it in). I'd like to avoid pitching that 2nd vial of yeast so I can use it for something later, but I understand that I need a hit a target cell count.
This is my first starter, and a stepped up starter at that. Let me know if what I've done thus far is helping or hurting:*Sunday Night - Boil 1/2 cup DME & 2 cups of water + pinch of Wyeast nutrient. Pitched into 1L flask. Intermittent shaking through the night. Covered w/ tinfoil*Monday Morn - Mean krausen has formed. More intermittent shaking throughout the day.*Monday Night - Refrigerate. Start building stir plate*Wednesday Night - Stir plate is complete. Decant old wort, pitch 1 cup DME & 4 cups of water + Wyeast nutrient. Placed starter on stir plate. Krausen formed immediately. After 4 hours, back into the fridge.*Thursday night - I decided to let the yeast out to play again. Allowed flask to warm up to room temp, placed back on stir plate. Krausen overflowed most of the night (covered w/ tinfoil).
It's still on the stirplate & frothy. I'm hoping to brew tomorrow mid-morning. Should I just leave the yeast on the stir plate? Is is ok to pitch even when they're starting to settle?
I plugged that all in to yeastcalc.com and it puts you right on the money w 271 billion cells. No need to pitch that vial.
What will be the temp of the fermentation?
на здравје!
Thanks for doing that Progmac.
My hardwood closet floor has held an avg. temp of 65F degrees over the last week. LHBS advised holding 66F, so I'm about on the money.
cool. sounds like you're good to roll. try to stay patient with your wort cooling. if you pitch super active yeast at 72 you could very quickly be up to 76 with the activity from a beer that big and by the time you get it back down half the fermentation is done. i would pitch a beer like that around 60 degrees if possible and let it rise naturally.
I'll definitely aim to pitch on the cooler spectrum of 60F. I'm using White Labs WLP001. Assuming I maintain a 65 F climate, anticipating fermentation is going to add another 5-6 F, that should put me right in the optimal temp for the yeast. Sound about right?
WLP001 California Ale Yeast
This yeast is famous for its clean flavors, balance and ability to be used in almost any style ale. It accentuates the hop flavors and is extremely versatile. Attenuation: 73-80% Flocculation: Medium Optimum Fermentation Temperature: 68-73°F Alcohol Tolerance: High
other people pay disagree, but i have found slow cool fermentations do not add more than two or so degrees to wort temperature
Brew day went well. We had a little trouble maintaining our steep temp of 154F. Highest we hit was 158 & lowest was 150, so we still got what we needed. Yeast starter was 70F when we poured it into the bottle bucket. We poured the 60 wort on top, measured our 5gal mark & then transferred to glass carboy. Rolled around my apartment for 30 min or so..
My closet temp is 65 F, sticky thermometer on side of carboy reads 68 F. Should be a good beer!
Cool! Let us know how it turns out
