Like many of us, I have a complicated relationship with math.
I like math.
But I don't like how it's usually taught.
I grew up naturally good at math in school. The subject made me feel powerful, and eventually I was offered the chance to skip 7th grade math (which I ended up declining–those 8th graders looked too scary!).
You'd think since I had a "positive" experience with math in school, I'd be eager to replicate that in our home.
But my heart (and my children) steered me in a different direction.
I see now that the main skill that led to my math success wasn't understanding math; it was the ability to memorize. From an early age I used that skill to people-please my way into my teachers' hearts, to form an identity for myself, and to cover up growing feelings of insecurity.
(See?! I told you it was complicated!)
And as the years passed, I had that familiar sense so many of us identify with when it comes to this subject: Boredom.
Those nagging questions rang through my head: "What's the point of all this?" and "When am I ever going to use it?"

Bone mineral content increased in rhGH-treated patients, but it is not known if this change alters fracture risk and the strength of evidence is low. Percent predicted FEV1 is a good predictor of mortality risk and influences HRQoL reporting. However, moderate-strength evidence indicates that rhGH treatment did not improve this measure.

TravelPod Member ReviewsGrange City Hotel London
This hotel is located very centrally, literally across the road from Tower Hill tube station. The welcome was friendly, quick and painless. The lobby is small but well decorated and all the staff were efficient and helpful. Our room was unfortunately not blessed with a view of London Tower but it was clean, nicely decorated. The bathrooms are tiny!!! and read the instructions for hot water.........took me ages after 30 hours travelling to figure out.

Historical Traveler Reviews Grange City Hotel London
Hotel PERFECT for families & a mind blowing location!!!
We found the City Grange on a websearch and were reluctant to book it as it was slightly out of the centre. The trip to London was for our son's 9th birthday and in the end, The City Grange was the only 5 star available with a Quad/Family room. We got a rate of �114 with breakfast for all for of us as a last minute deal, so value for money was main incentive! Now, I have to say we were blown away. Firstly, the location is amazing! We live an hour from London and go there all the time but this tiny peice of London was just so beautiful and perfect for young children. It was quiet, just off a huge green, opposite the tower of London (2 mins walk) and there was a Pizza Express and a Chez Gerard's within a 3 min walk. You really couldn't ask for more and I have to say, the Tower of London was just AMAZING for adults and children. Back to the hotel though, we did have some problems with check in and they tried to convince us that the four of us would fit into a twin single room. We did get moved with no apology but after that is was just fabulous. The quad room we had was HUGE! It actually slept 7 as it had two king doubles, a single sofa bed in the reception area of the room and another double sofa bed in the room. It had a double shower and a bath with shower and it was vast for a London room. The pool was absolutely beautiful and far better than the pictures, just sheer indulgence and they loved kids splashing around too! The hotel also has a gorgeous little bar that is seated outside in a safe environment and the children can run around and look at the Roman wall! The hotel has great restaurants too and reasonably priced but the cheaper ones to shut at 6pm. Oh, it is so perfect for a family break. Breakfast service was almost too gushing and efficient and the staff were overly kind and filled my childrens pockets with sweets! All in all, the perfect place to take the children and have the best time ever! Almost forgot, the carpark, which is so stylish and safe is only �2.50 a day!! The hotel can tell you where it is. GO STAY AND HAVE SO MUCH FUN!!!!!
Absolutely fantastic!
my friend and i got a late bargain on this hotel, and what a bargain! one night stay for �40 each!! the facilities were perfect, swimming pool and health centre were amazing. we had a great swim in the morning to recover from the night before. the restaurant -we only bought some chips, and i remember them costing about �2 for a small portion, but oh well. the room was superb and the view from the window, amazing. CD player, sat TV, nice bathroom (with bathrobes) and 2 double beds - lovely!!
Not really a proper 5 star hotel
We booked this hotel following the good reviews on TripAdvisor and the fact it was a 5 star hotel with a swimming pool in the centre of London.
One major thing to tell you first is that there is building work going on at the moment! They are doing a 2nd phase extension to the the hotel and there are cranes, trucks, etc. around the hotel entrance. This was a bit of a shock as we came around the corner!
The next thing is the views. We were put at the back of the hotel, and our view was a neighbouring building and the train track! We asked for an upgrade and eventually got a view of the piazza, but still no stunning view of the London skyline.
Why isn't it 5 star? Well the staff are ok, but don't go that extra mile to help you. For example at breakfast you are constantly having to get up to find someone for more coffee etc. This is what you expect in a 3 star ... but not a 5!
The room was clean enough, although the toilet didn't flush properly and also the room smelt badly of smoke even though it's meant to be no smoking. Also there was no sign of the bathrobes and brand name soaps, shampoos, etc. the brochure mentions - not a big deal, but still a little annoying for something that can cost up to �210 a night!
Finally, the pool and swimming area were nice. But yet again, not 5 star! The steam room was broken for the entire time we were there and also while we were swimming a guy with a ladder was busy carrying out repairs - surely something that should be done at night when the "5 star" guests are not there to be disturbed.
All in all an "ok" hotel... but we have no idea how it managed to be awarded 5 stars. If you are looking for real luxury and good treatment then keep searching as you won't find it here.
Hope this helps.
Great Hotel, Spectacular View
We stayed at the Grange City Hotel for a weekend and found it to be extremely adequate. Any problems we had were sorted quickly and efficiently, straight away. Our view was amazing - we had a room on the 11th floor which directly overlooked the Tower Of London and Tower Bridge. I have never enjoyed 15 minutes of ironing so much in my life! Our TV didn't work but was fixed immediately after mentioning it to the staff and everyone was extremely helpful at all times. As for the previous reviewer complaining about the swimming times for children - they were advertised in all the leaflets and info booklets regarding the health club. I'm sorry - but if you don't read the info you're given I find it hard to see why you then feel the need to complain about it. Or maybe that's just me! Stay at the Grange, enjoy the facilites and chill. You're there to relax - don't stress everyone else out by moaning about everything.
Grange City--big rooms, mediocre service
We (family of four with two children) stayed at the Grange City for five days with fairly high expectations, having read generally positive reviews on tripadvisor. Although the pluses were as advertised (sizable rooms for London, excellent indoor pool with jacuzzi), there were some negatives that resulted in an overall rather average experience. Our first evening there was a wedding party in the hotel whose music blasted through our room, not the best way to recover from jet lag. A call to the front desk produced the unapologetic response "Yes, it's a wedding. Nothing we can do". Our visit to the concierge the next morning was unhelpful. His uncertain english and seemingly minimal knowledge of the area did not provide us with what we were looking for (though, on subsequent days, we found a different concierge who was helpful).
We wanted to order from the "movies on demand" or "pay-per-view" movie option on the television one evening for our children but, after several calls, discovered they were not operative. To their credit, the hotel produced (without our asking) a tv with VCR in our room in response, though it took some time to set up correctly and they had only two videos available to play on it.
THe pool was open from 8am-8pm on weekdays but when we went down with our children a bit after 4pm we were told "no children swimming after 4". Similarly, when my 11 year old son tried out the treadmill in the health club with my standing next to him, an attendant promptly came over and told us no children under 16 were permitted to use the health club.
Upon checkout, the hotel charged us the same rate for Saturday as for weekedays until we pointed the mistake out to them.
Finally, the location is not for everyone. While we found it exciting to be down the street from the Tower of London, being in the business district (the "city") means that almost all restaurants are closed on weekends. We also never found a good place for groceries in close proximity should one want to stock up on snacks or sodas.
In sum, while the room size was large by London standards and the promised two queen size beds and small couch were present, the overall level of service and support from the hotel were less than expected and far removed from the experience we had had at the Grosvenor House in London on two previous visits.
I came to the Grange City on a hen weekend with a party of 24 others. The hotel is fabulous - very luxurious and the rooms live up to the same standard. Check in for 24 of us was flawless and we were greeted very warmly.
Breakfast was superb and we also shook off our hangover with a swim and a spa in the health club in the basement. The hotel was great in every way and each one of our party enjoyed themselves immensely.
Tip - if you find yourself in the West End late at night and need to get back to the hotel quick - take the night bus N15 for just �1
Bargain luxury weekend hotel
Location is excellent - right next to Tower Hill tube, overlooking the Tower of London and Tower Bridge. Couldnt fault the room at all, service was good and prompt, breakfast was exactly what was ordered, and tasty. Why get ripped off in the West End when you can treat yourself to a weekend bargain only a few tube stops away. £100 very well spent.
Good for business
This is a high-quality, business hotel. The rooms are large for London and are in excellent condition. The location is good for business in the City, but I wouldn't recommend it for tourists as the area becomes pretty quiet at night and weekends. The decor appears expensive but I also thought it tacky. Just me?
Modern Opulence
This place is great if you like to take a swim or jacuzzi as part of your stay. The hotel has a 25 metre swimming pool as part of its really well equipped health club, incredibly rare for any hotel, never mind a central London hotel! The actual hotel has very opulent public areas and certainly makes an impression. The tourists particularly appreciated the Roman Wall running along the back of the hotel! My executive room was large with a balcony overlooking the Thames, I couldn't have asked for any better. The staff were helpful and went out of their way to make my stay perfect. I'd return here in a flash. Make sure you check out the hotels own website for fantastic weekend rates!
Great Hotel
We recently stayed at this hotel overnight. The hotel is lovely and the check-in staff went out of their way to be very helpful and friendly. The Room was lovely and furnishings immaculate. The only couple of complaints were the Bar - the Barstaff did not know how to make a Pina Colada and whilst we were ordering the waiter just walked off to help someone else. The Breakfast was not brilliant. Plus if you are on a high floor (we were on the 11th) the lifts can take ages. But all in all, I loved this hotel and if ever I need to stay at a hotel in London - this will be the one.

- One kilotonne is 1,000 tonnes.
- Total carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from the use on-site of other power sources such as diesel, petrol and gas.
- On 9 December 2011 the dam storage level reached 80%. The Minister directed the Sydney Desalination Plant to reduce supply to about 90 million litres a day. The plant's excellent performance and increased dam levels mean the original two-year proving period of running the plant at full capacity (250 million litres/day) can end early.
- With the dam storage level reaching 90% capacity, the Minister directed the Sydney Desalination Plant to cease production on 2 July 2012. Production will recommence when dam storage levels reach 70% and will remain in production until dam storage levels reach 80%.

LeBron James has been improving his image by the week, and most if it is due to spontaneous, genuine interactions with fans. Two weeks ago, LeBron rushed a fan at midcourt, tackled him, and gave him a massive hug in celebration after the fan made a halfcourt shot to win $75,000 during a Miami Heat-Detroit Pistons game. On Friday night, James played an impromptu game of catch with a fan who was wearing his replica jersey after a ball went into the stands during the second quarter of the Heat's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. It turns out the game of catch with LeBron was only part of what has been a vacation of incredible fortune for the fan. ESPN's Lisa Salters interviewed the lucky fan late in the fourth quarter of Miami's 111-89 win, and the man said he was on vacation from Honduras. Not only did the fan, whose name is Adolfo, attend Friday's Heat-Clippers game where he played catch with LeBron, but he says he also went to the Super Bowl last weekend. Adolfo says playing catch with LeBron was the best moment of his life. "Ever! In my life! This is the most exciting thing I've ever lived in my life," he said with jubilation. Here's video of the interview: Adolfo says he has been getting calls and text messages from friends and family who saw what happened. He seemed stunned and excited that the play had made YouTube and was being discussed on Facebook. In addition to playing catch with LeBron, Adolfo was named the Heat Fan of the Game and awarded a $300 gift certificate to Party City. Adolfo even met former NBA coach and current ABC/ESPN broadcaster Jeff Van Gundy, who was in town to call the game Friday night, earlier in the day while eating at a deli. He showed off the picture he took with Van Gundy: Does this man have a knack for being in the right place at the right time, or what? As great as things have been going for Adolfo, he does have one small complaint. "I wanted to keep the ball. I thought the ball was mine, so when I threw it back to [LeBron], and he threw it back to me, I thought he was giving it to me." I guess you can't quite have it all, Adolfo.

Daily Dosage: As a dietary supplement, take two capsules in the morning and two capsules in the evening with 8 ounces of water. 45-60 days of continuous use is necessary for optimum results. Thyax Research: Zinc (picolinate)- Required for the manufacture of thyroid hormones, zinc is also necessary for overall growth and development (3). Patients with hypothyroidism may have impaired intestinal zinc absorption and lower levels of plasma zinc (4,5). Treatment with zinc improved thyroid function and reduced the incidence of subclinical hypothyroidism in patients with Down syndrome, who have an increased risk of hypothyroidism (6). As well, the addition of zinc supplementation to L-thyroxine therapy in hypothyroid animals improved wound healing (7). L-Phenylalanine - As a precursor to the amino acid tyrosine, phenylalanine plays an important role in thyroid function. Deficiency of phenylalanine and L-tyrosine has been associated with hypothyroidism (1). Iodine (Kelp)- Iodine is a trace element that is required for thyroid hormone synthesis. Deficiency of iodine causes goiter, thyrotoxicosis and developmental disorders in children (8,9). Even mild iodine deficiency can result in hypothyroidism and thyroid disorders, especially in at risk populations (10). However, excess iodine can actually inhibit thyroid function, and combined dietary and supplemental levels should not exceed 600mcg per day. Copper (Gluconate), Manganese (citrate), Molybdenum- These trace minerals are closely tied to thyroid function. In animal studies, copper and manganese deficiency and hypothyroidism were worsened when these conditions existed together (14,15). Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine HCL),Vitamin B12 (Cyanocobalamin),Folic Acid- Required for optimal function of the nervous and immune systems, these B vitamins are useful in reducing levels of homocysteine, a detrimental amino acid associated with heart disease. Patients with hypothyroidism have significantly higher plasma levels of homocysteine (16). Supplementation with vitamin B6, B12 and folic acid can lower homocysteine (17). SourcesTahara Y et al.

Osprey Packs Variant 37 Backpack - 2100-2400cu in

When are you guys going to get the NEW model?
David Steele
Even tripods
Yes, even a tripod fits on this beast with two pairs of poles, a pair of skis, and a full day worth of touring lunch and layers.
David Steele
Travel worthy
On a recent trip to England, I took my Variant as my carry on. Typically, packs with real hip belts are a hassle to stuff in an overhead bin. Two buckles and the velcro later, the Variant's belt is off and easily stowed in the bottom of the pack, keeping it out of the way for all the airport hustling.
The crampon/shovel blade pocket does a nice job of catching a laptop sleeve, making trips through security a breeze.
David Steele
Side ski carry.
For doing quick boot packs, I find a full A-frame to be a bit excessive. While experimenting with this, I found that the Variant has a great way to slap them on the side.
With the leashes connected to each other, I slid one ski through the dedicated ski strap on the bottom. Then, the upper compression strap goes beneath the binding, thus holding the skis together and cinching them tight. Even better, the frame sheet and hip belt are supportive enough to make it comfy carrying the unbalanced load.
David Steele
First turns of the season
This is exactly the kind of thing I want my pack to be able to do: carry a day's worth of gear plus skis and boots. Approach, transition, ski, transition, walk out. The Variant has been phenomenal for this.

A bag that hugs back
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
As you get steadily weirder on the edges of the bell curve, the gear needed to satiate those bizarre visions seems to get a lot scarcer. I've realized that I want a daypack that carries glacier travel gear, can work for ski touring, and can actually handle a bit of weight when fully loaded for a day or two with bivis. Also, it needs to be able to crunch down after stashing camping gear, because I don't a second, smaller, and lighter pack for more minimal days. Such are the strange demands I held coming into this pack.
For reference, I come to the Variant 37 from the Gregory Alpinisto 35, which I've reviewed on that page. Though a good bag, my main complaint was that it didn't handle the weight associated with full trad racks and overnight supplies.
I'm at the edge of the Medium/Large divide, but some advice from a local pack fitter suggested the Large to accommodate my larger chest.
The first thing I noticed about the carry is how connected it feels. There are very few gap spots. Padding in places where it's necessary, and tapered elsewhere. The hip belt is wide enough to cup over the top of my hips and down the sides, making for a really comfortable carry--such a huge improvement over the narrow, barely there belt on the Alpinisto.
In a Large, the internal volume stacks to 40L. The lid is floating and removable, which makes it totally doable for overnights. Thankfully, the low volume day trips I took in on were simple--cinch the compression straps, and the whole thing narrows nicely. Remove the lid, and the flapjack closure still has a little mesh pocket for keys and such.
The crampon pouch is nicely multipurpose--easily fits a big water bottle or layer or my avie shovel blade, solving the issue of quick access while skinning. Every pack needs this sort of pocket.
I've spent a few months dragging the pack around through mud, snow, and overhead bins. It still looks brand new, nothing has yet to malfunction, and I'm totally impressed.

- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I like this bag a lot, it has everything I need. My only qualm is that it has a single metal spine down the middle for support. The 53 pack has a rectangular frame. Having just the spine means the shoulder straps bend the back plate where they are connected.

Contours of the daily and domestic
My life has been largely spent at home, caring for my family. It is a small world, but a rich and complex one, for all its short distances from stove to bed and bathtub to couch. Perhaps that is why I am drawn to these writers -- they are women -- who observe the contours and appreciate the significance of the daily and the domestic.
Anne Tyler's characters rarely leave Baltimore, or even the houses where they were raised. In Tyler's novels, the houses, like the city itself, become characters in the narrative. Those who do leave home remain bound by the ties, both glorious and grim, of place and blood and story. When elderly Daniel Peck begins to travel, in Tyler's Searching for Caleb, it is not because there is any site outside Baltimore worth exploring. He's looking for his brother, Caleb, who disappeared from their Roland Park home one day in 1912 leaving "no trace except for a bedroom full of hollow, ringing musical instruments and a roll-top desk with an empty whiskey bottle in the bottom drawer."

"It is a culmination of everything really from the coaching staff and my team mates. It has been a great season and I am just looking forward to next year now. We want to recreate what we have done this season but push on at the same time too."
Morris has made 41 starts for The Shots this season, in both defence and midfield, with a further three substitute appearances, and scored two goals.
Since joining from his hometown Club, Cardiff City, in July 2010, the 22 year-old has made a total of 69 appearances, including 12 from the bench.

Yeah, I've never understood the libertarian delusion about free markets and small government. If you want to know what a free market actually looks like, look at the drug trade on the Mexican-US border. This is what lucrative, completely unregulated markets look like. Sane people don't want to participate in that shit.

"One essential reason why the author frequently uses Ubuntu for digital forensic purposes such as forensic imaging is forensically sound write protect. It is compulsory for every digital forensic analyst to apply it when dealing with the storage drive evidence. It is aimed not to change the contents of drive either incidentally or deliberately. Once the contents is changed, so the next actions of digital forensic become doubt or even refused by the court, unless digital forensic analyst can explain comprehensively why (i.e. the relevance) it is changed and what the implications of that action. It is usually performed on live analysis with strict procedures. On dead analysis (i.e. post mortem) the analyst is still required to keep the contents of hard drive not changed.

Thanks to Del Monte for sponsoring this post. Click here to see more of the discussion.
Before my kids started going to school, I witnessed my friend and her son battle over his lunchbox. A few weeks after kindergarten had started, she discovered he wasn't eating all of his lunch each day and was even trading away a lot of the food. He would come home hungry and asking for tons of snacks. When she finally figured out why, they had to institute some lunchbox rules no trading was allowed, and he had to leave all leftover food in the lunchbox for when he went home. Things quickly turned around once he had a little accountability in his life and he actually started to eat his lunch!
I learned a lot watching the two of them and was ready when my daughter started school. We set up some guidelines and rules from the beginning, but I also thought long and hard about what foods to pack in her lunchbox. If I packed wholesome foods that I knew she liked and would eat, the chances of her eating all the foods in her lunchbox were much higher!
Here are a few of those lunchbox snack ideas that have kept my kids from trading away their food. Hopefully they can be an inspiration for you, too!

Things Are Looking Ugly out There
Lately, it seems every chart I show has some warts. Some more than others, but basically, they all stink.
Still, you'd think there would be something working. And there is. There always is. My favorite way of finding stuff that's working? Just look through all of the stocks making 52-week highs. Forget about looking for stuff that's down 50%, because as folks have found out, that stuff can quickly be down 80%!
No, if you must go long, at least do it with charts that are holding up. It's a funny thing, but stocks that have already made one 52-week high have the best chance of making another 52-week high. I know, real rocket science, right? Hey, it doesn't have to be hard.

Shapes and cycles arising at the steady bifurcation with icosahedral symmetry
Hoyle, RB (2004) Shapes and cycles arising at the steady bifurcation with icosahedral symmetry PHYSICA D-NONLINEAR PHENOMENA, 191 (3-4). 261 - 281. ISSN 0167-2789
fulltext.pdf Download (1MB) |

This paper analyses the steady-state bifurcation with icosahedral symmetry. The Equivariant Branching Lemma is used to predict the generic bifurcating solution branches corresponding to each irreducible representation of the icosahedral group Ih. The relevant amplitude equations are deduced from the equivariance condition, and used to investigate the stability of bifurcating solutions. It is found that the bifurcation with icosahedral symmetry can lead to competition between two-fold, three-fold and five-fold symmetric structures, and between solutions with tetrahedral, three-fold and two-fold symmetry. Stable heteroclinic cycles between solutions with Dz2 symmetry are found to exist in one of the irreps. The theoretical scenarios are compared with the observed behaviour of icosahedral viruses and nanoclusters.

Try this eye-catching gel design from Surrey, Canada-based Olga Palylyk of Ornate Nailz by Olga. Palylyk specializes in gel nail art designs.
Surrey, Canada-based Olga Palylyk of Ornate Nailz by Olga specializes in gel nail art designs. You can check out more of her designs at www.gelartnails.com, where there are both free and paid videos showcasing her step-by-steps. (The video of the 3-D gel marblelizing technique shown here costs $3 to view.) "Marblelizing using 3-D gel can be done in any color for any season — clients love it!" Palylyk says. This full set takes her an hour and a half, and she charges C$100 (U.S.$102). All named products are from Amore Ultima Gels.
1. Prep the nail and apply a form. Apply Bonder. Flash cure for 20 seconds.
2. Apply Sculpt and Shine onto the form to extend the nail. Cure for two minutes.
3. Use a flat detail art brush to pick up a small amount of White gel, then dab the gel onto the nail surface at random, lifting the brush to leave some gel "standing" in the air. Repeat the same motion in a different spot with the remaining gel on the brush, picking up more gel if needed.
4. Continue placing the White gel onto the rest of the nail all the way to the free edge. Cure for two minutes.
5. Apply Primary Blue gel over the white pattern. Let gravity go to work for a few seconds: The blue gel will settle into the grooves. Cure for two minutes.
6. Apply a little Pixie color gel in Silver Lining onto a few spots for a glitter accent.
7. Continue with the glitter application. Cure for two minutes.
8. Apply Sculpt and Shine on the entire nail to even out the grooves and to balance the entire nail. Cure for two minutes.
9. Cleanse the nail. File, shape, then cleanse again.
10. Apply Sculpt and Shine to seal the nail. Cure for two minutes.
11. Cleanse the nail one final time.

I've watched the last pre-season game 3 times now and I'm just not that impressed with LMJ. If compared to a "starting quality RB," he's average. Then factor in that he seems to lose the ball quite often (kickoff or handoff) and I just don't think he's starting quality. Don't get me wrong, he's not a bad relief guy, but I wouldn't want him as a primary. I really hope Hunter is a 100 percent by mid-season, because before he got hurt, I actually thought he was running better than Gore. I'm also excited to see Lattimore next year.

"Serious and complex illness" in quality improvement and policy reform for end-of-life care

Americans are living longer — a mark of success in public health and medical care — but more will live the last few years with progressive illness and disability. The dominant conception of care delivery separates "aggressive" or life-extending care from "palliative" or death-accepting care, with an assumed "transition" between them. The physiology and the experience of this population are mismatched in this model. Here, we propose a more useful category for public policy and clinical quality improvement: persons who will die as a result of "serious and complex illness." Delivery system changes could ensure reliable, continuous, and competent care to this population.

Jean-Paul Sartre's existentialism proposes that the self is created and re-created in every moment of life through choice manifested in action. The Flies explores this idea through dramatic fiction. The ancient myth of Orestes and Electra becomes a story about choosing and creating identities. The story's protagonist becomes its existential hero when he recognizes that he has personal freedom, and chooses a value system of his own. The negative examples are those who refuse to choose at all, or those who choose and then regret their decisions on account of someone else's judgment.
Questions About Identity
- In Aegisthus's "Character Analysis," we talk about the role he uses (that of being king) to define himself. What "roles" do the other characters in The Flies play use? Do these other characters confuse their identity with their roles, or do they exist in authenticity outside of them?
- For Sartre, what constitutes a "crime"? Who are the "criminals" in this play?
- Why does Orestes hesitate to share the details of Clytemnestra's death with his sister?
Chew on This
Try on an opinion or two, start a debate, or play the devil's advocate.
For Sartre, not choosing a value system at all (represented by the action of the Tutor) is worse than choosing a problematic one (represented by Aegisthus).

Turn Ons
a lot of things turn me on I'm attracted to all shades and body types it's all about your confidence and how you carry yourself that does it for me......a sensual, seductive temptress of a woman..... a vocal woman, woman in touch with there sexuality and not afraid to experiment and explore, the curves of a woman, touching, passionate kissing....woman on woman, squirting, oral (giving and receiving) anal.... did I mention kissing? a woman's beautifully manicured hands or pedicure feet, toe sucking, breasts (big, small or otherwise) a nice ass, nipples..... long legs, curvy hips, bbw, beautiful lips, woman of all shades.... the small of a woman's back, the nape of her, a shaved, wet pussy... a well trimmed pussy.... watching.....sliding my dick in between your breasts, cumming, the way my dick looks after I make you cum, having my face ridden, giving facials(haven't yet maybe one day).....a woman that swallows.... ink on a woman, nipple piercing.... big clits.... watching woman with toys, licking her fingers after they've been in her pussy... putting my tongue inside you...cowgirl and reverse cowgirl.... watching your face as you orgasm... feeling your pussy twitch and pulsate around my dick.... and it sounds cliche but intelligence is vastly underated on the sexy/ turn on scale for some but not for me... the smarter you are the harder I fall, the more turned on I am...there's more but that's all that comes to mind at the moment

Former GMG Radio chief executive John Myers is back spinning the discs at one of the group's Smooth Radio stations, 100.4 Smooth Radio in the north-west of England. Veteran DJ Myers is broadcasting under his on-air pseudonym, John Morgan, and is guest-hosting the local station's breakfast show. Since leaving GMG Radio - part of Guardian Media Group, which also publishes MediaGuardian.co.uk - Myers has published a government-commissioned report urging the shake-up of the rules governing local radio, and launched a blistering attack on media regulator Ofcom. Top of his playlist - the Rolling Stones' "(I Can't Get No) Regulation". Maybe Ofcom's radio director, Peter Davies, will ring up with a request.

[my first attempt at this....dun hate me....props to karma who inspired me with his runs]
They're is a story told to us here.
About a great unmeasurable void....a void which spawned an egg. It watched and a Divine Being that ruled the void.
Solitude eventually succumbed to the beast, forcing him to create three brothers , a pink one to control space and the boundaries in between, a black one to have domain in the laws and opposites of all that was to be, and the blue one with the Divine beast's likeness, to have control over the contentious flow of time . The Divine Beast used the last of his power to create the world and all the beasts and Humes that now ruled the land, and he then went into a everlasting sleep
Eventually The Black Beast came to believe he should become the new lord, and having new found control in he dead, waged war against his brothers. The Pink and Blue beasts were losing the war, and in a act of desperation, created a land where neither time flowed, or space existed, stripping The Black Beast of his powers and leaving him in a land similar to The Void. the Pink Beast decided to go into deep sleep like his father, leaving The Blue Beast to have control over the land and-
The blond haired boy lifted himself from his seat and yawned. "I hope you know all that is load-o-crap, Elias"
I stared at The Book of Legends in my hand "H-how could yo-you say the Creg...These are the stories of our village you just cant throw this awa-"
Creg cut him off mid sentence " I told you, i visited my Dad at the battle tower.... i found out what the world had to offer...and what i had to do...." He turned to the dim TV that showed a news reel on a team in search of a red Gyrados " Hey, maybe we'll find that monster in our lake" Creg ran out the door toward Acucity lake
I ran after him and called out my name "CREG WAIT WE'RE ARNT SUPPOSED O GO TO THE SACRED LAKE! THE POKEMON WILL BE ANGRY"
Creg turned his head as they ran through the growth "HURRY UP ELIAS! OR IM FINING YOU A MILLION DOLLARS HAHAHAHAHA"
I eventually caught up to him at the foot of the lake. I was going to ask him that we had to leave but i noticed he was staring wide eyed at both a old man and a young girl in a scarf. All i managed to say was "You arnt supposed to be here"

Jim and Diane Cooley are 2015 citizens of the year, honored at the February 12 Sweetheart Banquet in Port O'Connor. Married 49 years, Jim and Diane are the parents of two children and four grandchildren, and the doting parents of at least three four legged fur children they love.
Jim is a retired business man working in banking, mortgage and real estate development, and Diane worked as a mother and helpmate. They love to travel, enjoy antiques, are fitness devotees and avid fishermen. Their son Troy stated that he was completely blessed to have such great examples as parents. He said they were completely supportive and encouraging and he was lucky to have them. His dad still provides aid in his busy construction business in Austin, and declared they are the best parents ever and totally deserve this honor. Port O'Connor knows that very well.
Since moving here they have invested their many talents and strengths in this community. The guiding force in life for each of them is their faith in Jesus Christ. They sing, teach Sunday school and volunteer for many positions and jobs in their home church, First Baptist of Port O'Connor, Texas. Both are busy community volunteers, serving the POC Women's Service Club, as past Lions Club Officers and as ready helpers anytime the need calls for them. Whether Diane, an accomplished cook, is providing food for a family or community event, or Jim is delivering candy and cookies for a youth event; they are involved together.
This formidable team with servants' hearts comes with strong backs, ready hands, a warm smile and a can-do attitude. They are deserving recipients of 2015 Citizens of the Year. Congratulations Jim and Diane!
See "What's Happening at First Baptist Church" for report on the Sweetheart Banquet.

Moss helps keep the deeper layers of soil frozen, as well as the roots of trees, well into the spring, thereby reducing water vapor. When it rains in the summer, the moss acts like a sponge and soaks up a lot of the water. About one-third of the total amount of water that is evaporated by the boreal ecosystem in the summer comes from moss within a few days after a rain.
Moss covers the ground throughout the boreal forest, including the upland black spruce study area shown here. The moss inhibits water evaporation, helping keep the soil wet and the atmosphere dry and sometimes covering pools of standing water. (Photograph courtesy BOREAS project)
By introducing their new BOREAS data into the weather models, Betts says he expects to see significant improvements in forecasts of daily temperature, cloud cover and precipitation amounts. It typically takes a few years to develop and test these forecast model changes, Betts explains. When the changes that are being tested this summer are complete, he plans to go back and re-analyze both the old forecasts, the new forecasts, and the actual measurements to get a quantitative measure of how much the models have improved. He wont get the results of those analyses until the year 2000, but loftier goals await over the horizon.
This graph shows soil temperatures at 5 and 100 centimeters during 1995. The upper soil is insulated by snow in the winter, but warms quickly in summer. (Note: snowmelt is shown by the constant zero degree temperature during April.) In contrast, the deep soils remain near freezing through early summer, not warming up until the air temperature has already begun to drop. This prevents the trees from evaporating water at their full capacity.

"Today, global forecast models are evolving into Earth system models," Betts states. "New land measurements are improving land surface meteorological forecasts significantly, so that there will be another round of improvements to the models in 2001. Then, we will enter our revised understanding of the global carbon cycle into the Earth system models. Over the next 5-10 years, global forecast models will become fairly complete Earth system models."

This map shows the average errors in the improved European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts at 850mb (roughly equivalent to an altitude of 1500m) for March and April of 1997. The model used in 1997 used a reduction in the forest snow albedo based on BOREAS data to improve the 5-day forecasts.
