The object-oriented programming style used in the Smalltalk and
Actor families of languages is available in Zetalisp and used
by the Lisp Machine software system. Its purpose is to perform
When writing a program, it is often convenient to model what the program
does in terms of
In this model, we think of the program as being built around a set of
objects, each of which has a set of operations that can be performed on
it. More rigorously, the program defines several
The new types may exist only in the programmer's mind. For example, it
is possible to think of a disembodied property list as an abstract data
type on which certain operations such as
In both cases, we represent our conceptual object by one Lisp object.
The Lisp object we use for the representation has
We have now seen the essence of object-oriented programming. A conceptual object is modeled by a single Lisp object, which bundles up some state information. For every type of object, there is a set of operations that can be performed to examine or alter the state of the object.
An important benefit of the object-oriented style is that it lends itself to a particularly simple and lucid kind of modularity. If you have modular programming constructs and techniques available, they help and encourage you to write programs that are easy to read and understand, and so are more reliable and maintainable. Object-oriented programming lets a programmer implement a useful facility that presents the caller with a set of external interfaces, without requiring the caller to understand how the internal details of the implementation work. In other words, a program that calls this facility can treat the facility as a black box; the program knows what the facility's external interfaces guarantee to do, and that is all it knows.
For example, a program that uses disembodied property lists never needs
to know that the property list is being maintained as a list of
alternating indicators and values; the program simply performs the
operations, passing them inputs and getting back outputs. The program
only depends on the external definition of these operations: it knows
that if it
The same is true of the
The caller need not know that the first two functions were structure accessors
and that the second two were written by hand and do arithmetic. Those
facts would not be considered part of the black box characteristics of
the implementation of the
In this second implementation of the
We have now created our own types of objects, whose implementations are
hidden from the programs that use them. Such types are usually referred to as
Some more terminology: the quantities being held by the elements of the
One might ask: ``But what if the caller evaluates
Unlike some other languages that provide abstract types, Zetalisp makes no attempt to have the language automatically forbid constructs that circumvent the contract. This is intentional. One reason for this is that the Lisp Machine is an interactive system, and so it is important to be able to examine and alter internal state interactively (usually from a debugger). Furthermore, there is no strong distinction between the ``system'' programs and the ``user'' programs on the Lisp Machine; users are allowed to get into any part of the language system and change what they want to change. Another reason is the traditional MIT AI Lab philosophy that opposes ``fascist'' restrictions which impose on the user ``for his own good''. The user himself should decide what is good for him.
In summary: by defining a set of operations and making only a specific set of external entrypoints available to the caller, the programmer can create his own abstract types. These types can be useful facilities for other programs and programmers. Since the implementation of the type is hidden from the callers, modularity is maintained and the implementation can be changed easily.
We have hidden the implementation of an abstract type by making its
operations into functions which the user may call. The important thing
is not that they are functions--in Lisp everything is done with functions.
The important thing is that we have defined a new conceptual operation
and given it a name, rather than requiring anyone who wants to do the
operation to write it out step-by-step. Thus we say
Often a few abstract operation functions are simple enough that
it is desirable
to compile special code for them rather than really calling the function.
(Compiling special code like this is often called
When we use this optimization, the implementation of the abstract type is only hidden in a certain sense. It does not appear in the Lisp code written by the user, but does appear in the compiled code. The reason is that there may be some compiled functions that use the macros (or whatever); even if you change the definition of the macro, the existing compiled code will continue to use the old definition. Thus, if the implementation of a module is changed programs that use it may need to be recompiled. This is something we sometimes accept for the sake of efficiency.
In the present implementation of flavors, which is discussed below,
there is no such compiler incorporation of nonmodular knowledge into a
program, except when the
Suppose we think about the rest of the program that uses the
However, all kinds of movable objects have positions, velocities, and
masses, and the system will contain some programs that deal with these
quantities in a uniform way, regardless of what kind of object the
attributes apply to. For example, a piece of the system that calculates
every object's orbit in space need not worry about the other, more
peripheral attributes of various types of objects; it works the same way
for all objects. Unfortunately, a program that tries to calculate the
orbit of a ship needs to know the ship's attributes, and must therefore
What is needed is an operation that can be performed on objects of
several different types. For each type, it should do the thing
appropriate for that type. Such operations are called
Another terminology for the use of such generic operations has emerged
from the Smalltalk language: performing a generic operation
is called
Sending a message is a way of invoking a function without specifying which function is to be called. Instead, the data determines the function to use. The caller specifies an operation name and an object; that is, it said what operation to perform, and what object to perform it on. The function to invoke is found from this information.
The two data used to figure out which function
to call are the
In our new terminology: the orbit-calculating program finds the
How do we implement message passing in Lisp? Our convention is that objects
that receive messages are always
To set the
It should be stressed that no new features are added to Lisp for message sending; we simply define a convention on the way objects take arguments. The convention says that an object accepts messages by always interpreting its first argument as an operation name. The object must consider this operation name, find the function which is the method for that operation, and invoke that function.
This raises the question of how message receiving works. The object must somehow find the right method for the message it is sent. Furthermore, the object now has to be callable as a function. But an ordinary function will not do. We need something that can store the instance variables (the internal state) of the object. We need a function with internal state; that is, we need a coroutine.
Of the Zetalisp features presented so far, the most appropriate
is the closure (see ). A message-receiving object could be
implemented as a closure over a set of instance variables. The function
inside the closure would have a big
While using closures (or entities) does work, it has several serious
problems. The main problem is that in order to add a new operation to a
system, it is necessary to modify a lot of code; you have to find all
the types that understand that operation, and add a new clause to the
The conventional way of making generic operations is to have a procedure
for each operation, which has a big
Closures (and entities) are also somewhat clumsy and crude. A far more
streamlined, convenient, and powerful system for creating
message-receiving objects exists; it is called the

to know that
Now that the instance variables are
A flavor can also establish default initial values for instance variables. These default values are used when a new instance is created if the values are not initialized any other way. The syntax for specifying a default initial value is to replace the name of the instance variable by a list, whose first element is the name and whose second is a form to evaluate to produce the default initial value. For example:
There are many other options that can be used in
Now we have a system for defining message-receiving objects so that we
can have generic operations. If we want to create a new type called
However, this would be a a wasteful thing to do. The same code has to
be repeated in several places, and several instance variables have to be
repeated. The code now needs to be maintained in many places, which is
always undesirable. The power of flavors (and the name ``flavors'') comes
from the ability to mix several flavors and get a new flavor. Since the

The following organization conventions are recommended for programs that use flavors.
If you are writing a program that uses someone else's facility to do something,
using that facility's flavors and methods, your program may still define
its own flavors, in a simple way. The facility provides a base flavor and
a set of mixins: the caller can combine these in various ways depending
on exactly what it wants, since the facility probably does not provide all possible
useful combinations. Even if your private flavor has exactly the
same components as a pre-existing flavor, it can still be useful since
you can use its
The operations described in this section are a standard protocol, which all
message-receiving objects are assumed to understand. The standard methods
that implement this protocol are automatically supplied by the flavor
system unless the user specifically tells it not to do so. These methods
are associated with the flavor

they must be called in a specific sequence.

For example, suppose you have flavors for ``buffers'' and ``streams'', and
each buffer should be accompanied by a stream. If you create the stream
in the
Since flavors are not hierarchically organized, the notion of levels of abstraction is not rigidly applicable. However, it remains a useful way of thinking about systems.
An object that is an instance of a flavor is implemented using the
data type
A message is sent to an instance simply by calling it as a function,
with the first argument being the operation.
The microcode binds
When the funcallable hash table is called as a function, it hashes the
first argument (the operation) to find a function to handle the operation
and an array called a mapping table. The variable
The mapping table is an array whose elements correspond to the instance
variables which can be accessed by the flavor to which the currently
executing method belongs. Each element contains the position in
Each time the combined method calls another method, it sets up the
mapping table required by that method--not in general the same
one which the combined method itself uses. The mapping tables for the
called methods are extracted from the array leader of the mapping table
used by the combined method, which is kept in a local variable of the
combined method's stack frame while
Ordered instance variables are referred to directly without going through the mapping table. This is a little faster, and reduces the amount of space needed for mapping tables. It is also the reason why compiled code contains the positions of the ordered instance variables and must be recompiled when they change.
There is a certain amount of freedom to the order in which you do
The rules for the order of definition are as follows.
Before a method can be defined (with
When a flavor is defined (with
The methods automatically generated by the
The first time a flavor is instantiated, or when
After a flavor has been instantiated, it is possible to make changes to it. Such changes affect all existing instances if possible. This is described more fully immediately below.
You can change anything about a flavor at any time. You can change the
flavor's general attributes by doing another
These changes always propagate to all flavors that depend upon the
changed flavor. Normally the system propagates the changes to all
existing instances of the changed flavor and its dependent flavors.
However, this is not possible when the flavor has been changed so
drastically that the old instances would not work properly with the new
flavor. This happens if you change the number of instance variables,
which changes the size of an instance. It also happens if you change
the order of the instance variables (and hence the storage layout of an
instance), or if you change the component flavors (which can change
several subtle aspects of an instance). The system does not keep a list
of all the instances of each flavor, so it cannot find the instances and
modify them to conform to the new flavor definition. Instead it gives
you a warning message, on the

It is often useful to associate a property list with an abstract object,
for the same reasons that it is useful to have a property list

If the instance is a stream connected to a file, should copying the stream make a copy of the file or should it make another stream open to the same file? Should the choice depend on whether the file is open for input or for output? |
In general, you can see that in order to copy an instance one must understand a lot about the instance. One must know what the instance variables mean so that the values of the instance variables can be copied if necessary. One must understand what relations to the external environment the instance has so that new relations can be established for the new instance. One must even understand what the general concept `copy' means in the context of this particular instance, and whether it means anything at all.
Copying is a generic operation, whose implementation for a particular instance
depends on detailed knowledge relating to that instance. Modularity dictates
that this knowledge be contained in the instance's flavor, not in a ``general
copying function''. Thus the way to copy an instance is to send it a message,
as in
The flavor system chooses not to provide any default method for copying an instance, and does not even suggest a standard name for the copying message, because copying involves so many semantic issues.

Rev. Brannan serves First Baptist
The Rev. Paul Brannan has been called to serve the First Baptist Church in Linton.
He retired from being a full-time pastor in 2005; however, in October of 2009, he returned to ministry and served as a guest speaker and filled in for pastors who were on leave. After receiving a call from the deacons of the First Baptist Church in Linton, Rev. Brannan believed his prayers had been answered.
"I was bored and lonely and feeling useless," Rev. Brannan said. "I prayed and asked God for an answer, and I know he has this plan for me and this parish."
The parish offered an interim pastor position to Rev. Brannan after he conducted a service for them last fall. He served as their interim pastor from October of 2012 through February of 2013. On Feb. 17, 2013, the parish called him to be their full-time pastor.
Brannan was living in Sidney, Mont., prior to moving to Linton. He was working in a convenience store and then as a shipping clerk in a leather factory where they made leather horse equipment. Previous to that, he served as a full-time pastor at two churches in Sidney.
Brannan was born and raised in Phoenixville, Pa., and had two brothers and one sister, all of whom are deceased. After graduating from high school in Phoenixville, he attended Williamson Trade School in Media, Pa., received a brick masonry degree in 1958 and worked as a mason and bricklayer.
In July of 1958, Brannan married Sally Cunningham. She passed away in 2009 from cancer. They had five children —two boys and three girls. Paul, Jr. (PJ) is 53, married to Janet, and they live in Sidney with their two boys. Jeffrey Lee is 51, and lives in Dallas, S.D., with his wife, Lorrie. Penny is 49, married toArdee Tyler, and their family lives in Fairview, Okla., with their two children. Cheryl is 47 and lives with her husband, Walter Knudson in Sidney. They have three children. Robyn is 35 and also lives in Sidney.
In 1963, the Brannans moved their family to Columbia, S.C. Rev. Brannan attended Columbia Bible College and received a Bachelor of Arts in Religious Education in 1967. He then served as an interim pastor in Pennsylvania for about two years. In 1969, they moved to Hayes Center, Neb., where he served as a pastor for four years.
Over the years, Brannan has been an interim or full-time pastor in various churches in Pennsylvania, Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota and Montana. He also was a maintenance worker at Crystal Springs Baptist Bible Camp.
Brannan decided to become a pastor after he became a Christian in 1955.
"I felt led by God to be called into His ministry," he said. "But, I did not know I was going to be a pastor, I thought I would be a teacher."
Brannan said he did not attend a seminary, partly because it was too expensive for him. At the time that he thought about entering the seminary, they had four children to support, and the money was not there. He recalls while attending college, they had very little to live on and they had to put their trust in the Lord to provide.
"My wife and I learned how to live by faith while I was in college," Brannan said. "God had to make up the difference when we needed funds to survive."
Brannan remembers a time in college when friends and colleagues were praying for them, and their prayers were answered. A teacher helped them and paid their rent, so they could have a home for their family. He has relied on the Lord and believes that is how he survived his heart attack in 1989 when doctors said he only had a year to live. He also survived prostate cancer. At the age of 75, he feels he is blessed with good health.
Rev. Brannan's goal for the First Baptist Church is to expand on their vision which is to glorify God through the warmth of fellowship, the witness of His word, the worship of our Lord and watching for Christ's return. He hopes to accomplish this by leading a good Bible-reading church.
"I have been around long enough to know there is a lack of knowledge of God in the Christian church," Rev. Brannan said. "Many only know a little about God, but do not know who he really is."
He said he has really loved being in Linton and has felt welcomed.
"The people have opened their arms to me, and I pray that I can help not just people in our parish, but all those in our community."
That, he believes, is what God wants him to do. That is why he feels he was called to Linton.
Brannan has already enjoyed being a part of the community and getting to events such as high school games. He also enjoys hunting, fishing and golfing, and has experienced some of the lifestyle in the area by joining John Beck on the farm working calves, helping veterinarian Dr. Lyle Kenner and visiting the Derry Pool farm when sheep were being sheared.

Daniel Coyle who wrote The Talent Code had an interesting blog post recently about a kid who wore googles with the bottom half of the lense darkened to help him practice dribbling basketball. He also mentions a couple more simple yet effective homemade devices that people use to increase their skills.
Then I realized that I had a few such "gadgets", mental ones, that I use in memory training. One is the good old automobile license plate--a constant source of random numbers and letters. When I was working on my Day of the Week technique I used to consider that the first number and the last two on plates were month and days and quickly figure out the DOW before the car disappeared. Since I walk a lot, it created many opportunities. Now that I'm working on speed number memorization I'm back to using the license plate. I take four numbers from it and create two images on top of the car. It's a good way to make your brain work a little faster and under some pressure.
And Josh mentioned that he used Google Search as a tool. Several people use a metronome.
Do you have a mental "gadget" or technique that you use?

The Downtown Seder
Last night was a culmination of good fortune, good luck, and — as always — my wife running late. The good fortune came in the shape of a dinner invite on the night after we finished cleaning our kitchen for Passover. The good luck was our good friends Miriam and Alan from the band Stereo Sinai inviting us to the Downtown Seder. And the running late … well, we just won't go there.
The Downtown Seder is a creation of Michael Dorf, half postmodern religious ritual and half cabaret. Rock stars and stand-up comedians and various random famous people are each assigned one step of the seder. And then it's you in a room with bands like Stereo Sinai, comedians like Rachel Feinstein (who was on Last Comic Standing with our boy Myq Kaplan), half-band-half-comedians like Good for the Jews, and Dr. Ruth. Yes, I said Dr. Ruth.
(Yes, she's that short pink dot in the picture. We weren't sitting that far, but she is short, 4'7″. My Holocaust-survivor grandfather who's 4'11" looks down at her.*)
And she read the Four Questions, too. Granted, she was not the youngest one in the room (she'll be 83 years old on June 4) but she did it, and she did it up. Backed on a bluegrass guitar by C Lanzbom, she sang the first question solo, and then instructed the audience to accompany her. "If you sing with me," she said in that undeniably adorable German accent, "I promise that you will have good sex for all the days of your life." And if we don't? "Remember," she told us, "I used to be a sniper in the Haganah."
Did I sing? You'd better believe I sang.
A few of the guests were esoteric. Others were total crowd-pleasers. Here's Stereo Sinai, courtesy of my cheapo camera-phone:
Their take on the Son Who Doesn't Know How to Ask a Question was one of only two all-out dance numbers (the other being, of course, Joshua Nelson and the Kosher Gospel Choir) — but each act was so well-thought-out and cool and unusual that I kept wanting to call someone and let them listen. I'm not a bootleggy type of person, but I wish I had a bootleg of last night. I kept wanting to write things down. I kept wanting to remember them. Joshua Foer* summed it up: "Our tradition demands not just that we eat matzah, but that we interact with it and explain it." Or, to paraphrase Faulkner: Not only is the past not dead, it isn't even past.
Because we're Hasidic and don't get out much, this is probably the closest I'll ever come to a non-religious seder. Boxes of Manischewitz matzah on the table. Behind us, Rachel Feinstein was getting down with woman in a severe Florida-retirement hat decked with flowers. The singer of Good for the Jews was wearing a ruffled tuxedo shirt.
Yes, it was bizarre having a seder a week before Passover starts. It was bizarre having matzah on the table in Manischewitz boxes instead of knitted sleeves, and celebrating with two hundred people I'd never met. It might have been a celebration of freedom, but it was also a celebration of getting down.
* – Who also referred to the Baal Shem Tov, the founder of Hasidism, as "the great cognitive scientist," which probably nobody else cared about but which absolutely made my night.

chana ahem…i believe i did a dance number…
Matthue Yes, you did! And it was awesome, and I'm sorry I didn't mention it! Ladies and gentlemen, Chana Rothman — not my cousin — check her site, buy her album, stalk her! She is totally worth it.
(Although I ducked into a corner, since it was a little awkward with the whole not-holding-hands-with-girls thing!)

Tuff Hedeman Rodeo comes to El Paso tonight
POSTED: Saturday, February 9, 2013 - 2:56pm
UPDATED: Saturday, February 9, 2013 - 6:39pm
In 2011, Championship Bull Riding (CBR) launched the now very successful Million Dollar Bull Team Challenge giving bull owners the opportunity to make additional money in the industry and is now following its aggressive and innovative approach to the sport by introducing the new CBR Eight Seconds (:08) Format. The ground breaking format was put into effect at the first event of the 2013 CBR season in Huron, South Dakota August 30th and reviews have been overwhelmingly in its favor.
Tonight at 8:00pm, the CBR will return to the El Paso Coliseum with the Tuff Hedeman Championship bullriding event.
2011 CBR World Champion and CBR stock holder Clayton Foltyn commented, "This concept was put together with the rider in mind. If you can ride, you are going to make money. I wish I had played a bigger part last week, it sure looked fun and can't wait to get in there and win!"
The CBR Eight Seconds (:08) Format is designed to further elevate the sport of bull riding as a legitimate profession. The performance based approach pays out money to every bull rider that rides his bull for the entire eight seconds in each of the three high energy rounds. No entry fees are asked of the rider and only 24 invitations will given out to each 2013 CINCH Tour event. The top invites are awarded to the top 10 in the CBR World Standings, followed by 10 special invites and the 4 top names in the Horizon Series. A pool of $30,000 is added to each event and there will be three rounds of competition. During the first round, each qualified ride will receive $500. The top 12 will be called back for a second round in which every qualified ride will be awarded $750. The final shoot-out round will be a "sudden death round" where the top four riders with the highest averages from round one and two will be given a chance at the remainder of the pool. The top score, in the final round only will win the larger percentage of the pool with the rest divided among the remaining qualified rides. If there is not a qualified ride in the final round, the pool will carry over to the next CINCH Tour event and be added to the initial $30,000 pool.
"This new format is all about the ride and the sport of bull riding," stated 2012 CBR Reserve Champion Luis Blanco. "It gives riders the opportunity to make a living at the sport we all love so much."
Added 2012 CBR World Champion Josh Barentine, "This will demonstrate what a good rider is, because in order to potentially cover three bulls in a competition, you need to be the best. I think this is one of the greatest things that has happened for bull riding. I can't wait to get back into the CBR arena a make some money."
About CBR Championship Bull Riding, Inc. (CBR) is a nationwide, professional bull riding organization. The CINCH CBR Tour events are professionally produced live shows designed to be an adrenaline rush the whole family will enjoy.

Skrik is the most-stolen work of art, but that's also because there are more targets to steal: Munch made four versions of the image, which is four times as many as there are of the Mona Lisa, Les Demoiselles d'Avignon, or Starry Night. One version was stolen in 1994, and one in 2004, but both were recovered; however, that works out to an average of 0.5 times stolen, which is less than most other paintings that have been stolen.
I have a question for you. Why?
Why what?
That is the correct response. You get an A+
I don't want an A+. I want to be happy.
Marquis de sad,
The desire to be happy is something you and I have in common. I have been to the deepest darkest places that my mind and soul could drag me into. I have dwelt there for what seemed to be an eternity. Every second seemed like an hour. The pain was unbearable I still feel like I'm on the edge of the abyss as I write this. Fortunately I have discovered that there are ways to escape the trap of profound sadness. I don't always have the strength to use them, but I know that they are there for me if I can get past my self hatred and self punishment and self denial. For me, there are two things that I turn to when I can no longer bear the pain of inaction. The first is to take a piece of paper and a pen or pencil and just let whatever it is that wants to come out, come out. I do this making sure that I have no preconcieved ideas and I make a concious effort not to be in controll of my hand. I let myself become a funnel and I just let go. This escape route is possible for anyone to use. It does not matter weither you can draw or not. In reality you are not drawing you are simply unfocusing, and letting go. the only thing you are holding onto is a pencil, and you are letting go of EVERYTHING else That is torturing you. In essence you are excorcising your demons with the guidance of your angels. The second escape route may sound simple and in reality it is, but it can also prove to be the most difficult of all. Get up off of your ass, get out of your living space AKA (self imposed prison) and take a walk. Observe and scrutinize everything that you see. I mean really focus. Think deeply about the color of a leaf and examine the veins running through it. Look to the sky and take in all of it's complexity or simplicity whichever the case may be. Let the smell of a newely mowed lawn bring back childhood memories. Latch onto the darting of a bird across your periferal vision. Lose yourself in a group of tiny little ants surrounding some crumb of food on the pavement. Soak it all in as deeply as you can and if you are so inclined to believe, somewhere from deep inside you, you will realize that God is there with you. You have been, and are blessed by all of the gifts which you just let back into your soul. You may feel an elation that you had forgotten even existed. You may feel nothing at all. you may feel numb. But what you will not feel is the pain of sitting alone in your room and the sadness which had you trapped. It can seem like a monumental task just to put on a pair of shoes. But once you get done tying the laces, you have a clear path to the truth and beauty of being alive. You are right at the doorstep of "Happiness." If all you can muster is the courage to take just one step outside of your door, you should be proud of yourself. You will be happy if only for a brief moment, but a brief moment of happiness is priceless. I wish you well, and the happiness which you desire and deserve.

LeBron James to Get His Own Marvel Comic Book
Categories: Sports
The 12-page book, titled King of the Rings, imagines a world in which LeBron actually makes good on winning those seven rings he famously promised when he joined the Heat.
via Marvel.com |
That apparently involves things like James learning to levitate and building himself a pair of robotic legs (which, hey maybe, Dwyane Wade could use soon). In one nightmare scenario, the Heat is forced to trade away Wade and Chris Bosh, but don't worry, because comic book Pat Riley has a secret plan: He has grown an army of LeBron clones in his secret lab (which is probably something Riley would do if he could).

Talent Development Resources : creativity and personal growth. Being creative and realizing our talents involves a lot of self-awareness and respecting who we really are, including our unconscious depths.
In an interview about her film "Flightplan," Jodie Foster commented, "When you're a dramatic actor you look for films that hit you in the gut, in this unconscious place that really moves you, and then you can't help but make the movie because it's something that you fear and you want to know more about it."
She added, "I think that every film that I do, even though it might not relate to me autobiographically, has some very personal pull in there and there are questions that I ask myself that I can't really resolve any other way." Creating Environments That Optimize Creativity and Inspiration. Today's article takes a look at how to help maximize creative thought by carefully structuring the environment around you.
Everything from the design of your office to the specific hours of the day that you choose to work can play a key role in how effective you are when it comes time to actually get things done. The essence of creativity plays a very important role in art and design. "It's not where you take things from- it's where you take them to."

I'm not sure what the thinking behind these pieces are, but I'm really drawn to his layering of photography, illustration, color and type.

They were considered the source of the knowledge, related orally for centuries in the ancient culture, that was contained in poetic lyrics and myths. The Muses were both the embodiments and sponsors of performed metrical speech: mousike (hence the English term "music") was just "one of the arts of the Muses".

Jill Bolte Taylor's stroke of insight. Character (arts) The study of a character requires an analysis of its relations with all of the other characters in the work.[9] The individual status of a character is defined through the network of oppositions (proairetic, pragmatic, linguistic, proxemic) that it forms with the other characters.[10] The relation between characters and the action of the story shifts historically, often miming shifts in society and its ideas about human individuality, self-determination, and the social order.[11] In his book Aspects of the novel, E.
M. Forster defined two basic types of characters, their qualities, functions, and importance for the development of the novel: flat characters and round characters.[24] Flat characters are two-dimensional, in that they are relatively uncomplicated and do not change throughout the course of a work. By contrast, round characters are complex and undergo development, sometimes sufficiently to surprise the reader.[25] 5.

Dana Hertz got primary and specialty care in one stop
Blue Care Network primary care physicians aren't just generalists. They can also provide many specialized services in their offices. Dancer Dana Hertz can vouch for that.
When Dana visited her primary care physician while home from a cruise ship dance assignment, he diagnosed and treated her foot injury on the spot. That's because Dana's primary care physician is also a trained sports medicine specialist. The other professionals in his group contributed to Dana's treatment. Dana appreciated the convenience of not having to visit more than one doctor's office.
"I didn't need a referral," said Dana. "And I didn't need to make an appointment with another doctor. They took X-rays on the spot. Once my doctor diagnosed the injury, a trainer showed me how to tape it so I could continue dancing. He also recommended that I get arch supports for my street shoes."
For 23-year-old Dana, who's been working two part-time jobs and keeping up with her dancing, getting her injury taken care of immediately was the best thing that could have happened. She was able to dance without pain and make sure that she was at top form so she'd be ready for another assignment from the cruise line.
Because Blue Care Network primary care physicians are trained to provide comprehensive care, they can provide many services in their offices. Many are also associated with physician groups that include specialists, making it even easier for you to get the care you need when you need it.
