Philosophy is caught in a dilemma. On one hand, its omission as a legitimate venture in empirical inquiry requires its looking to "the big picture" and striving to counteract the fragmented specialization of other cognitive domains. On the other hand, philosophy does not and cannot avert division of labor. Thus, it remains committed to the quest for unity and coherence in our understanding of the nature of things in a world where our knowledge is exploding in scope and in complexity. "
Philosophical Reasoning" explores this difficult situation and clarifies its implications by expounding and defending the following thesis: that systematization is the proper instrument of philosophical inquiry, and that the effective pursuit of philosophy's mission calls for constructing a doctrinal system that answers our questions in a coherent and comprehensive manner.

27-inch iMac in short supply at Apple Stores
There have been persistent reports from a number of sources about shortages of the 27-inch iMac at resellers; now MacRumors is reporting that Apple's retail stores are experiencing short supplies of the popular all-in-one desktop computer.
A survey of stock at the 249 Apple Stores in the U.S. through the "Personal Pickup" program shows that the two standard 27-inch configurations are out of stock at just about half of those stores. 120 stores are out of the 27-inch base model, and 135 stores have no current supply of the high-end 27-inch iMac. Most stores are showing pickup dates in the September 4 - 7 range.
What's odd is that the shortages are limited only to the 27-inch iMac; the 21.5-inch model is still in stock at most stores. Apple is expected by many pundits to be working on updated iMacs containing the latest Intel Ivy Bridge processors, to be launched in the October timeframe. Although the blogosphere seems to favor a Retina display on any new iMacs, manufacturing constraints make that a possibility for next year, not 2012.

Ground Operations Interview
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks – interviewed at JetBlue in January 2015.
Applied Online and 7 days later received an email to complete a telephone automated interview through Hire IQ.
Had a phone interview approximately 5 days later, and attended the information session and group F2F 7 days after that. It was a pleasant and informative event with about 50 candidates. The group F2F interview is basically one recruiter and 3 candidates.
That same evening I received a request for my DOB and SSN. They advised during the session that if you got that email, you are a "chosen one" and that the next to last step would be an email from Sterling Info Systems with a link to provide background check authorization. I received that email the next afternoon.
TAKE YOUR TIME and be sure that you are accurate on the dates and contact information you provide for previous addresses, employers and schools attended. There is also a USPS background check form that you have to fill out and upload to that same website. Follow those directions carefully as well.
Set aside AT LEAST 2 hours to complete this process because once you submit it, you can't go back and edit. Be sure to gather, scan and attach any supporting documentation relating to driving record, past criminal history, etc., if applicable. Airlines only look at the past 10 years for felonies, but you never know and as with any employer, its not an automatic disqualifier--especially if you're truthful. Better safe than sorry.
To that end, once you get a F2F invitation, start gathering all your diplomas, W2s and previous address 411 because they go back line by line of that background paperwork and you can upload as much extra proof as you want. Don't let lack of preparedness be a reason for a delay or disqualification.
Was called by HR and scheduled for my fingerprints the next day for an appointment the following morning.
When the background check clears, we were told a job offer would be made and we'd be advised of the dates for the 1-week training in Orlando.
Everything moved fast. I'm thinking that the longest part is the background check, but less than 24 hours after submitting everything I was already at step 5 of 13.
7 days after submitting Sterling background check information, everything came back "clear" or "complete".
GOT JOB OFFER 3 days later!
1 week Training starts in 2 weeks.
The great thing is that you get the questions for the phone and f2f interview before you call in to answer them. The questions include:
1. Please describe what you like best about your current or previous position and why.
2. Please describe a few things that you know about our company and why those things are appealing to you.
3. Please describe a few things that you know about our company and why those things are appealing to you.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics released its Employment Situation Summary for May, and the numbers are better than economists predicted. April's report was also higher than expected -- 288,000, instead of the 218,000 predicted. Unemployment, which dipped 0.4 percent to 6.3 percent in April, remained steady.
In age where every college intern already has a personal brand, it's hard to know when our social media use has gotten out of hand. Are we building or empire -- or just annoying everyone around us? Fortunately, a new site offers a way to figure out if you're That Person on social media.
Who's good at multitasking? No one, according to a spate of recent studies, collected by Tom Bartlett at The Chronicle of Higher Education -- or at least, no one multitasks well enough to make it more efficient than doing one thing at a time. There's also a startling lack of concrete evidence that women multitask better than men.
One of the causes of the Great Recession was predatory lending practices that encouraged borrowers to buy more house than they could afford. No wonder, then, that in the rebuilding years of our economy, many are focused on figuring out how much they'd need to earn to responsibly buy a home in their city.
Private companies added 179,000 jobs last month, according to The ADP National Employment Report. That's less than the median prediction of 210,000 jobs offered by economists surveyed by Bloomberg.
If you're feeling less-than-fulfilled by your job, you're not alone: only 13 percent of us are engaged at work. Everyone else is waiting for Friday (and hoping against hope that this weekend, like most, won't be consumed by work emails). Why are things so bad for so many?
Finding a college professor to mentor you may not be easy, unless you're a white male or at least appear to be one by name alone. In a recent study of more than 6,500 professors at the top 250 schools, researchers found that professors were more likely to deny opportunities to women and minorities -- a bias that appears after only knowing a student's name. This is especially evident in faculty linked to more lucrative professions.
Want to work at the company that brought you next-day shoe delivery and free returns? You'll have to join Zappos Insiders, the organization's new social network dedicated to networking with current and future Zappos employees. In fact, The Wall Street Journal reports, the social network will be the only way to get hired for one of the estimated 450 jobs the online retailer expects to fill this year.
Being overpaid is probably not something you've ever spent much time worrying about. After all, real wages are down 7.7 percent, compared with 2006 numbers, and 23 percent of workers were laid off at some point during the recession. Earning too little seems more likely -- and more dire -- than earning too much. So should you even worry about being overpaid, in the first place?
If you've been going on a lot of job interviews, but not getting many actual offers, it's possible that you're psyching yourself out -- in which case, Laura Donovan at Hello Giggles might have the answer to your problems.
What if your boss accidentally forwarded your vacation request to your entire company? That's what happened to security officer Greg Heaslip, when he emailed his line manager at retail chain Arcadia Group in the U.K. BuzzFeed reports that Heaslip's request went out to 3,500 staff members. And then all heck broke loose.
Remember that character from Seinfeld who spoke of himself in the third person? "Jimmy likes Elaine." "Jimmy thinks the opera is great." And so on. It turns out that Jimmy was on to something we can all use to reduce stress and improve motivation and, therefore, productivity.

News reporters and writers can be hard pressed to please everyone when they put together a story, as I can certainly attest after more than two decades of attempting to keep the complaints and corrections to a minimum.
So it wasn't surprising to hear from one of our publication's readers with an objection not to something Recycling Today had written (phew!) but in this case to something he had read in the wider-circulation financial press.
This reader, an active trader and experienced hedger of his trades, says he was disappointed and flabbergasted to read a financial analyst quoted as referring to hedging as "like going to a casino."
Perhaps worse yet, the editor of the news service publishing the story in which this analyst was quoted decided to use the phrasing "casino-like hedges" in the headline of the article. Thus, readers around the world were given the impression that hedging purchased commodities (in this case airline fuel) was akin to rolling the dice.
Readers of the entire article can eventually ascertain that the airlines losing out on their "bets" had in fact hedged their fuel purchases at a locked-in, predictable rate. When oil prices began plummeting, they missed out on some money-saving buying opportunities but only after years of adequately protecting themselves while buying fuel in a climate of rising oil prices.
Thus, the analyst quoted was referring, perhaps, to "money left on the table" when a buyer hedges during a time of falling prices.
Further on in the story, an airline executive properly notes that his carrier's hedged fuel purchases did "mute the effect of lower fuel prices," but "on the other hand, it will protect our earnings from the full effects of a [price rebound] if that were to happen." That, of course, is the benefit of hedging.
Recycling company managers and other buyers and sellers of secondary commodities must make their own decisions regarding how often they hedge their trades and when to do so. They certainly should not look to a magazine editor for any advice!
The trader who contacted me about the airline fuel example was clear on where he stood, expressing bewilderment about any statement that hedging is like going to the casino. "When done right it has the exact opposite effect. It is taking the casino risk out of the business and providing a vehicle where you can manage price fluctuations in the marketplace," he comments.
In the vast tide of business information that washes over us daily, some of it is bound to be of dubious value, as I must regretfully admit as one of the providers of that information.

Smoky eyes are, of course, nothing new. Legions of starlets have rocked the sexy eye makeup before and it's become a red carpet mainstay. But Olivia Wilde's interpretation of the look definitely warrants a doubletake — as well as its own how-to in Us Weekly's Copy That! beauty video series.
In the video above, Us Weekly Beauty Director Gwen Flamberg explains the 1-2-3's of recreating Wilde's smoky eyes. What makes her look modern is its use of a silvery-navy shadow, says Flamberg, instead of the more traditional brown palette.

My husband and I spent 2 nights in this lovely chambre d'hote in July. The house was extremely comfortable, the decor most attractive and food was delicious. Location was fantastic with magnificent scenery within easy reach. Highly recommended!
My husband and I spent 2 nights in this lovely chambre d'hote in July. The house was extremely comfortable, the decor most attractive and food was delicious. Location was fantastic with magnificent scenery within easy reach. Highly recommended!
We (2 parents, 2 adolescents) stayed for three nights in this nice chambres d´hotes in Campan. It is a wonderful base for discovering the pyrenees and we had a great time. A couple of years ago the owner has taken over this place from a French family and did a great Job refurbishing and modernizing it. Good breakfast and an... More
I had a wonderful time in this beautiful bed and breakfast. The owner always helped us to find nice places to visit, to eat, helped to find a bus and gave us ride. The bedrooms were lovely and it was nice to sit next to the fireplace. I can higly recommend Maison Lacoste.
Everything we needed for a wonderful few days in the mountains. Especially enjoyed sitting by the log fire at night after enjoying a hearty meal in the farmhouse. Easy drive to Bagnere for the saturday market or to try some of the cosy restaurants in the town, up to La Mongie to ski or Payolle for snowshoeing/cross country skiing. Very... More
Don't hesitate to stay at this charming chambre de'hote. Chris has done an amazing job to create a beautiful authentic French country house. Interior is beautifully appointed and the rooms have everything you need and more. Good breakfast and charming host make for a wonderful stay. Views are terrific and the Campan valley has so much to offer.
Elspeth and I had a wonderful 5 day stay in Chris' B&B. It was everything we needed. Comfortable accommodation, a friendly host, a good location with access to nearby towns, villages, mountain passes and walks in the mountains & valleys. Two hours in the Spa baths chilling out set the scene for stunning drives.
This beautiful B&B at the foot of the Tourmalet and Aspin passes in the Pyrenees offered every comfort I could have asked for. The house itself has bags of character all of which has been wonderfully preserved and (added to) by Chris' careful and sympathetic renovations. I stayed for two weeks whilst researching the passes of the Tour de France... More
This chambre d'hôte nestled at the bottom of the Pyrénées is delightful. Chris' hospitality really is second to none. The accommodation itself is clean, airy, bright and comfy. What is particularly special about this house is all the pieces of unique antique furniture - every room has been furnished uniquely. The garden & balcony offer lovely places to sit in... More
Chris Sheppard's newly-renovated Bigorrdian farmhouse is ideally located for the ski, or summer walking and cycling scene, for Campan, Payolle and Tourmalet, and very close to the town of Bagneres de Bigorre. (special rates have been negotiated for guests wanting to hire ski equipment at the nearby rental place). This itself would be recommendation enough but it's a cosy and... More
Thanks to Chris for making us all feel so comfortable and looked after. We had a long weekend ski trip booked for La Mongie, a nice 20 minute drive up the hill. Chris has worked wonders with Lacoste and deserves every success. She was kind and considerate, to the extent that on the morning my hire car failed me she... More

Agricultural Policy, Migration, and Malaria in the 1930s United StatesAlan Barreca, Price V. Fishback, Shawn Kantor
NBER Working Paper No. 17526 The Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA) caused a population shift in the United States in the 1930s. Evaluating the effects of the AAA on the incidence of malaria can therefore offer important lessons regarding the broader consequences of demographic changes. Using a quasi-first difference model and a robust set of controls, we find a negative association between AAA expenditures and malaria death rates at the county level. Further, we find the AAA caused relatively low-income groups to migrate from counties with high-risk malaria ecologies. These results suggest that the AAA-induced migration played an important role in the reduction of malaria. The NBER Bulletin on Aging and Health provides summaries of publications like this.

The ocean has a lot of unknown things in it like unknown creatures. Some say that the ocean engulfs ships and planes this ocean is also known as the bermuda triangle. Some people call it the Devils triangle. But one of these days i will find the truth

There is definately something odd going on in the coordinates known as the bermuda triangle. If it is at all possible to find out what it is, and escape to tell the story, it would have happened already.

Federal Way, Wash. - The Stanford divers continued their strong effort at the Pac-10 Diving Championships. Contested a week before the Pac-10 Swimming Championships the scores will not be added until next week. However, for a second straight day, the Stanford divers finished with solid results.
On Thursday it was Brent Eichenseer leading the way for Stanford. The Stanford sophomore finished third in the 3-meter competition with a score of 388.15.
Also competing for Stanford was Dwight Dumais, who finished seventh with a score of 3:04.30. A day after winning the Pac-10 title in the 1-meter, Dumais will also score in the 3-meter.
The final diving event will be the platform competition, which will take place Friday. The Cardinal will look to continue to give the Stanford swimmers points heading into the Pac-10 Swimming Championships that take place March 4-7, in Long Beach, Calif.

Report released on US financial services pandemic exercise
WASHINGTON, DC – The US financial services industry is better equipped to deal with a pandemic outbreak than first feared, according to a report released on last year's government-sponsored sector-wide pandemic flu exercise.
The simulation tested the industry's ability to function with absentee rates of 49% across the US. Elaborating on the initial results released last October, the recent findings include industry responses to business continuity issues such as communication, stockpiling equipment and anti-virus medication.
Officials say new lessons were also learned. "The results of this report demonstrate the clear need for conducting this exercise," says Treasury deputy assistant secretary Valerie Abend. "Even businesses who had pandemic plans in place found that a global avian flu outbreak poses complex issues and were able to identify areas where more work was needed."
The exercise was sponsored by the US Department of the Treasury, the Financial Services Sector Co-ordinating Council for Critical Infrastructure Protection and Homeland Security, and the Financial and Banking Information Infrastructure Committee.
Conducted between September 24 and October 12, 2007 with more than 2,700 participating organisations, it was the largest pandemic simulation so far held for the financial services industry.

Janome products have been at the cutting edge of sewing technology since the earliest days of their founding. They were the first to develop a computerized machine for home use (the Memory 7, in 1979), the first to offer professional style embroidery to the home market (the Memory Craft 8000, in 1990) and the first to offer a long-arm quilting machine for home use (the Memory Craft 6500P, in 2003). The long-arm quilting machine has also evolved to the fourth generation with the introduction of the Horizon Memory Craft 8900QCP, which features 11 inches of arm space, AcuFeed Flex dual feed with the ability to change feet, 9mm variable zig-zag stitch width, and a high resolution LCD touch screen with jog dial control.
Today, their flagship model, the Horizon Memory Craft 12000, is redefining the way sewists enjoy their hobby. This state of the art sewing and embroidery machine is equipped with Real-Time PC Connection with Horizon Link™ software. This connects the machine to a PC or laptop, allowing users to create and edit embroidery designs and stitch combinations on a PC or laptop with a mouse, anywhere, anytime. This, in addition to a true 9mm stitch width, Variable Zigzag, the Linear Motion Embroidery System, and many more features make this the most powerful, yet effortless sewing, quilting and embroidery machine available.
Their mission is to produce machines which inspire creativity and innovation, yet are simple for anyone to use. They know the most important thing about their products is not the machines themselves, but what you create with them. The better your tools, the more inventive, artistic and pleasurable your sewing experience. That's why they design their machines for performance, but also for comfort, quality, and intuitive ease of operation.
As a leader in the sewing industry, Janome keeps striving to provide best-in-class products and services which enable sewists' creativity and innvovation. At Janome America, they create their products to inspire, not intimidate—because the most important function the machines perform is to set free your creativity.
