This sunlit dining room overlooks a colorful courtyard in a Mediterranean beach home. Antique dining chairs were upholstered with leather and nailhead trim to accentuate the rustic vibe of the reclaimed wood dining table.
A burnt orange fireplace and hearth accent this otherwise neutral Spanish-style living room. Yellow and blue tile frame the fireplace opening, and simple furniture in grays and browns fills the seating area.
A pair of lemon trees frame this elegant sofa to create an inviting spot to sit in the upstairs hall at the Atlanta Decorators Show House. Patterned pillows add pizzazz to the sophisticated space.
Hyde Evans Design developed an eclectic Mediterranean style by adding dark accents and a stone-look fireplace in this airy white family room. A striped area rug adds interest while softening the neutral tile floors.
This Italian-inspired kitchen is stocked and ready for a feast, complete with a stainless steel Wolf range and pot filler. A charming hand-painted range hood and backsplash are flanked by gorgeous alder cabinets.
The foyer of this opulent home opens into a space that features a large cross on the wall, a painted ceiling depicting saints and a village. A large sculpture is set into the wall on a built-in cabinet.
The extravagant patio outside this three-level home features a gorgeous outdoor fireplace and cozy outdoor seating. The two balconies overlooking the patio also feature outdoor seating for endless entertaining opportunities.
This transitional outdoor room features neutral wicker sofas with bright throw pillows in floral patterns. An elegant outdoor chandelier, fabric, and large mantel and sconces frame the space without sacrificing its connection to nature.
This freestanding copper bathtub gives a feeling of solitude and relaxation in this elegant Mediterranean bathroom. An ornate chandelier and painted, vaulted ceiling complete the look.
A Moroccan tile backsplash in neutral tones is the focal point of this gray Spanish style kitchen. Arched doorways mimic the niche behind the stove, while white cabinetry on either side provide plenty of storage space.
This Mediterranean kitchen features split-finish cabinetry with a light island. The mix of stonework, travertine flooring and granite on the backsplash create a subtle and warm space.
A padded bench and religious sculpture sit beneath a large four-paneled French paravent.
This living room is a nod to Spanish mod style. The yellow rug is covered with Spanish motifs in a modern scale, and the drum shade chandelier and contemporary gray sofa complement the Spanish architecture of the home.
The columns in this decadent living room, the indoor fountain, and the shape of the ceiling give the illusion that you've traveled back in time and are enjoying a day in Ancient Greece. Design by Tom Beasley
A tufted loveseat provides a comfortable place to play games in this Spanish-style living room, which also features a stylish display in the background. A bronze candelabra, fresh flowers and a charming lantern add character to the room, while patterned curtains create depth.
Shades of brown are an excellent way to accent feminine details in a living room's design. In this living space designed by Mariah O'Brien, the seating area has soft and organic details, like purple florals, that are grounded by warm tones of light brown and chocolate.
A stand-alone cabinetry piece gives this master bath a more formal, traditional look than the outdated "honey-oak" cabinetry that was previously in the space. With plenty of floor space to display something decorative, designer Rachel Kate selected a tile medallion for the area and designed coordinating borders in the shower and bath surround.
This beautiful Italian villa is landscaped beautifully. A simple but elegant hardscape pool deck surrounds a rectangular swimming pool.

Canada has had a monopolistic telecom industry for as long as I can remember, but it seems Parliament is finally taking steps to improve the situation. In the prebudget Throne Speech yesterday, the government said it would open Canada's borders to greater foreign investment and make the industry more palatable to mergers and acquisitions.

Woo boy, I guess I was a little more right than I thought about more bad economic news; this time it hits a little closer to home.
Canadian telecommunications equipment manufacturer Nortel Networks has posted a loss of US$3.4 billion in Q3 2008, it's largest loss in the past seven years. Revenue was down 14% year over year to US$2.32 billion and 1% year-to-date.
Commenting on the market dynamics, Nortel President and Chief Executive Officer Mike Zafirovski said: "In September, we signaled our view that a slowdown in the market was taking place. In the weeks since, we have seen worsening economic conditions, together with extreme volatility in the financial, foreign exchange and credit markets globally, further impacting the industry, Nortel and its customers. We are therefore taking further decisive actions in an environment of decreased visibility and customer spending levels."
Nortel also announced plans to cut a further 1,300 jobs, on top of a previous round of cuts of 1,200 staff. About a quarter of the job cuts will occur this year, with the rest in 2009. None of the remaining staff will receive pay rises in 2009, unless already agreed. The cost savings are expected to reduce annual gross costs by approximately US$400 million in 2009.

Interesting news coming straight out of Brussels today via Cellular-News. They're reporting that the European Commission will has proposed abolishing a 1987 rule which limits the use of the low frequency/cost 900 MHz spectrum to GSM services. Since 1987, European Union rules have set aside the frequencies between 900 MHz and 1800 MHz exclusively for GSM phones, which helped the E.U. roll out mobile phone services cheaply and quickly.
If the commission is successful, telecoms will be able to use the cheaper spectrum for services like video, data streaming and broadband Internet, estimating that the move would cut the costs of maintaining wireless mobile networks by 40% for the industry.
Obviously no word yet on if those savings would be passed onto the consumer (unlikely), but BBCool will keep you informed. The commission expects the measure to be passed into law by the end of the year. What do you think, folks: good move or bad for our friends in Europe?

P A R T I I Be Creative W hat is the greatest difficulty people have in thinking about problems and issues? The standard answer is the difficulty of evaluating the various solutions and choos- ing the best one. In some cases, this may be true. But two other difficulties are equally troublesome: identifying problems and issues before they become crises, and getting beyond com- mon, unoriginal solutions to creative ones. The first chapter in this part introduces the creative process. The other chapters expand this introduction, showing you how to search for challenges, express and investigate problems and issues, and produce many and varied solu- tions. By the end of Part II, you will have developed a proac- tive approach to problems and issues and learned how to stimulate your imagination.

C H A P T E R 5 The Creative Process Have you heard any of these sayings: Creativity cant be learned, The way to be creative is to ignore traditional ways of doing things, It takes a high IQ to be creative, Taking drugs enhances a persons creativity, or Creativity is related to mental illness? Theyve all been around for a long time. But guess what? Theyre all wrong. This chapter sets the record straight about creativity. It also details the characteristics of creative people, provides an overview of the creative process, and offers a strategy you can use to develop and apply your untapped creative potential. T he human mind, as we have seen, has two phases. It both produces ideas and judges them. These phases are intertwined; that is, we move back and forth between them many times in the course of dealing with a problem, some- times several times in the span of a few seconds. To study the art of thinking in its most dynamic form would be difficult at best. It is much easier to study each part separately. For this reason, we will focus first on the production of ideas (Chapters 5 through 9) and then turn to the judgment of ideas.* Although everyone produces and judges ideas, the quality of the effort varies greatly from person to person. One individual produces a single common or shallow idea for each problem or issue and approves it uncritically, whereas another produces an assortment of ideas, some of them original and profound, and examines them critically, refining the best ones to make them even better....

Anyone know much about the Remington Model 721?
I love the looks of a plain walnut stock and the Model 721 is, in my opinion, a nice looking rifle. But I know very little about it. I've spotted a couple at my local pawn shop but one has a scope on it - the other doesn't but the stock has been ruined. Ruined in the sense that someone with no checkering experience tried to checker the forend and grip. It looks like my cat used it for a scratching post.
Does anyone know whether or not some of the 721s came factory drilled and tapped or is this something someone had done? The scope is a cheap Western Field 3x9. If I had confidence that it was factory drilled and tapped, I wouldn't mind it. It also has sling swivels but whoever did it, did a good job. Nothing else has been done to it and the wood and metal look great.
Any suggestions on what a fair price would be to pay out for one of these? Oh, and the caliber is .30-'06 which seems to be a super common chambering for that particular rifle. Anyone here own one and can speak for its strengths/weaknesses?
Any information is appreciated!

A 721 in .30-06 was my first centerfire rifle in 1959. Sorry that I no longer have it.
All of these 721/722's were factory drilled and tapped for scope mounts. As to value, Gunbroker auction site recently had a 722 in .257 Roberts that went for over $400 w/o scope. I'd expect a bare .30-06 would bring $300."You may fire when ready, Gridley" (Admiral Dewey at Manila Bay)

Basically the plain "father of the 700"; just as strong, just as accurate. Probably not too hard to find a stock for it either; they were very popular in their day and willl last basically forever if you take care of the bore and chamber. I never found checkering as pretty or as functional as we now seem to think it is. (Funny, they managed without it for MANY decades.....deer still got kilt!).

The Remington 721 & 722
The Remingtons 721 & 722 hit the market in 1948. The very early production numbers were NOT tapped on the receiver bridge top. Ala the prewar Winchesters, they were tapped on the receiver ring top and the bridge side. These early models also had their serial numbers located within the receiver in the left bolt guide rail. The chances of running into one of these semi-tapped models is really so small, it can almost be said that they are 'all' D&T for top mount scopes in the conventional manner.
They were fine and innovative guns in any sense but particularly within their price point. They are also strong and durable rifles. Plain by most standards, they were a successful 'function over form' marketing strategy. The later Remington 725 was their upscale counterpart. The 721-722 series died peacefully with the intro of the 700.
There are still many good serviceable examples. Not an achilies heel, but a point to always check is the riveted in place extractor. If broken, replacements are extremely difficult to find and generally a headache not worth buying into! Stocks are available but unless a restoration is particularly desired, I have heard that the more attractive 700 series stocks can often be easily adapted. I do know that these are more available and generally can be found cheaper than the average 721/722 stocks. The 721/722 barrel boss must be fitted of course. (Also, supposedly the 700 bottom metal also generally works.) The best deals on these rifles seem to be just getting a good one at a few hundred dollars in 30-06 or 270 Winchester. Other chamberings are potentially more expensive depending on desirability. Also except perhaps the 300 H&H, the 722 usually sells for more than the 721. That shorter action is still appreciated.
I have owned a few of them and recently picked up a very decent 721 in 300 H&H, their largest factory offering and the only chambering offering a factory recoil pad.
Hope these ramblings help and...
My take!
There was a Model 721B version that did come with factory checkering and sling swivels. My first.30/06 was a 721B and it was very accurate. I traded it for a .243 Win in a pre-64 Model 70 which was only half as good a shooter. Iskra provides a good tip about the extractor; I think they may well have been more durable than the 700 design but they are different and if one is broken you will probably end up having a Sako type extractor fitted which is expensive. Mostly only target shooters ever broke an extractor though. I like the "no-nonsense" styling also.

Thanks for the replies... I had been wanting a bolt action "shooter" in .30-'06 so I ended up buying another gun at the same pawn shop. I knew if I bought the 721, I would put it away and never shoot it. I am going to search the shows for a nice 721, though.

I bought a used remington 721 30-06 from badger john, not knowing much about guns. Simply because i didn't want to get an expensive one for start. Anyway, the gun was beat up pretty bad. Had major skars on the stock and barrel. I figure the guns been through hell, why not see why, i ask myself. So i bought it for $199. Did some major sanding and glossing. It actually turned out nice. Got a sling for it, bought a cheap scope, and some generic bullets from wal-mart. Took it out the following season and harvest a 4x4 and a 3x4 that year. One shot kill. Didn't matter where it hits. It perform amazingly well. I would not sell it for any price. I've had this gun for three years now, and every year i bagged two deers each. And i've also noticed that it is about an inch or so longer than my friends. Good for longer distance shot.

Sorry to bring this thread back up, but do any of you know if all of the 721's are the same length action. I know that they made .264, .270, .30-06, and .300 H&H in the 721. I know that the .300 H&H is much longer than the other three, but I can't find anything to say that there was more than one action length. I would like to get one in .30-06 and rechamber it to .300 H&H if the actions are a universal long action.

Networks can be considered as approximation schemes. Multilayer networks of the backpropagation type can approximate arbitrarily well continuous functions (Cybenko, 1989# Funahashi, 1989# Stinchcombe and White, 1989). Weprovethatnetworks derived from regularization theory and including Radial Basis Functions (Poggio and Girosi, 1989), have a similar property.From the point of view of approximation theory, however, the property of approximating continuous functions arbitrarily well is not sufficientforcharacterizing good approximation schemes. More critical is the property of best approximation. The main result of this paper is that multilayer networks, of the type used in backpropagation, are not best approximation. For regularization networks (in particular Radial Basis Function networks) we prove existence and uniqueness of best approximation.

McLaren have been in the headlines recently thanks to their innovative diffuser design. Although a clarification of the rules by the FIA has forced the British team to make slight modifications to the MP4-25 ahead of this weekends Australian Grand Prix, principal race engineer Phil Prew isnt concerned about the effect the changes will have on the pace of Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button. In a Vodafone McLaren Mercedes 'Phone-In' session, Prew also discussed the performance of the new teams, the speed of the Red Bull in Bahrain, and the chance of rain this weekend
Q: Now that McLaren have been forced to close off the diffuser, how much will it have an effect on the drivers one-lap performance?
Phil Prew: The modifications to the diffuser were, for us, quite small and we dont expect it to have any real effect on performance. It certainly wont be better, but were not concerned about any loss of performance with that. Were hoping in terms of first lap performance and in qualifying that we will be able to find a slightly better balance than we had in Bahrain. Were hopeful that we can have a better showing in qualifying which was one of our weaknesses the other week.
Q: In terms of percentage what kind of difference will it make over a lap?
PP: The changes that we have had to make to the diffuser are very minor. Theres literally no difference at all in terms of the downforce it produces. It was a clarification of the regulations that hasnt affected us at all to be honest.
Q: There was a lot of fuss after Bahrain about the impact the refuelling ban had on strategy. Do you think people were naive to expect anything else?
PP: The first race was very different as the teams and drivers got used to the different format. I think here was some trepidation from everybody about the tyres with the heavy fuel load. I think as the drivers and teams get more experienced working with these conditions, it will become more exciting to be honest. Albert Park has always had lots of twists and turns in terms of safety cars etc. Its still early days to make massive sweeping statements about the new regulations. Im optimistic the races will get more exciting.
Q: What was your take on the performances of the new teams?
PP: Whilst its good to see them finish, it clearly shows the difficulty in making competitive Formula One cars. They are a long way off. The five to ten seconds they were off in qualifying is a massive amount of lap time to find. Equally when they are that far back there are a lot of quick gains that they can make. Im sure theyll make very quick progress. Its always a big incentive when you see where you are in respect to the competition and Im sure theyll make very rapid improvements from this point, providing they have the resource and budget to back it up.
Q: There is a chance of rain for Sundays race. Is this a worry or do you think you could benefit from it?
PP: We have two drivers who have excelled in the wet in the past and it will be an opportunity for everybody to make the most of it. It will be a challenge but its quite exciting to be honest. Speaking to the guys about the prospect of rain, they are both relishing the prospect so we are up for it.
Q: It seems that BMW Sauber, Force India and apparently Red Bull have developed something similar to the F-duct system that you guys developed. How does McLaren feel about these other teams copying something that you have spent a lot of time innovating?
PP: I think that now we've led the way with the innovation, I think it is a system that is possible to copy and is reasonably straightforward. The press have covered it very thoroughly and it is a system that they can well adopt. I hope that they don't see quite as much lap-time performance as we believe we get from it. But it was inevitable. Hopefully we will be able to continue developing it and further exploit it one step ahead of the rest.
Q: When did you first come up with the concept? Have you been developing it for a while?
PP: We're constantly looking at new ideas, and this is one that was developed for the MP4-25 through the winter test programme, which was four weeks.
Q: Regarding Lewis's comments about the Red Bull being ridiculously fast. Do you agree with what he said?
PP: They had a strong performance in Bahrain, for sure. But I wouldn't call it ridiculous. Lewis himself has had some ridiculous qualifying performances at certain circuits. I remember in 2008 in Canada he was seven-tenths of a second quicker than everyone else in qualifying. Certainly Sebastian Vettel hooked it up in qualifying and did a great job, but do remember that Lewis did out-qualify Mark Webber. So it's too early to say just yet about our relative performance. I think that by the time we all come back to Europe, we'll have a better idea.

Quincy, MA -- The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts will open additional Disaster Recovery Centers in Peabody and Newton next week, for one day each.
Hours will be 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. at Peabody City Hall, 24 Lowell Street, on Tuesday, May 8, and at Newton City Hall on Thursday, May 10.
"It's an opportunity for homeowners, renters and businesses to obtain additional information from state, federal and voluntary agencies about what assistance may be available for them under a presidential disaster declaration," said Louis H. Botta, federal coordinating officer for the disaster recovery.
Bristol, Essex, Middlesex, Norfolk, Plymouth, Suffolk, and Worcester counties were declared a disaster area after severe storms and flooding between March 5 and April 16.
"We urge people to first apply for assistance by calling the toll-free registration number - 1-800-462-9029," said Stephen J. McGrail, director of the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency and state coordinating officer. The TTY number for speech- and hearing-impaired applicants is 1-800-462-7585.
Applicants with questions do not have to go to a Disaster Recovery Center. They can call the FEMA Helpline at 1-800-525-0321 between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday.

I have been hearing from multiple sources that Delaware would not honor Non Resident Permits/Licenses to Carry from the states they honor that issue non resident permits. These people even quoted people from the Delaware AG's Office telling them this.
Delaware always has and continues to honor Resident and Non Resident Permits/Licenses to Carry from the states they honor.
This information that Delaware has not changed their view on what permit/licenses they honor was provided to me by a Gentleman who works for another states Issuing Authority and takes care of obtaining Reciprocity Agreements with other states. He was in direct contact with the Delaware AG.
So this rumor can be put to bed. I have received many emails about this at Handgunlaw.us and just wanted to post this information so this rumor can stop.

text: Hi all, I couldn't reload sshd configuration with "/etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd reload" in my LFS 4.0-RC1 based system. SSH is a OpenSSH-3.5p1. The SSH daemon crashs with following message in /var/log/auth.log: Jan 16 13:14:07 sesam sshd[119]: RESTART FAILED: av[0]='sshd', error: No such file or directory. I wouldn't test this with other versions of OpenSSH but think that makes no difference. So I change all occurences of "sshd" in /etc/rc.d.init.d/sshd to "/usr/sbin/sshd" and all works fine.

EU offers $1.3 billion to reduce poverty
European leaders have offered $1.3 billion at the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) summit here, amid mounting calls for money to pay for the battle to cut extreme poverty.
The huge sum was offered late on Monday by EU Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso at the end of the first day of a summit on the goals, knocked off track by the international financial crisis.
President Nicolas Sarkozy of France and Spain's Prime Minister Jose Luis Zapatero earlier stepped up a push for a global financial tax, raising pressure on the world's wealthy countries at the three-day summit to contribute more in the drive to eradicate poverty and improve child and maternal health.
African nations in particular are calling for more action.
U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said the struggling effort to reach eight key development goals by 2015 could still be met if world leaders provide the necessary money and political will.
The aims include cutting the more than one billion people living on less than a dollar a day, reducing by two-thirds the number of children who die before the age of five, seeking fairer trade, and spreading the Internet to the world's poor.
While spectacular progress has been made in some areas, most experts say none of the goals will be reached by the target date. The international financial crisis has cut off badly needed funding.
Mr. Sarkozy said: "We have no right to shelter behind the economic crisis as supposed grounds for doing less.
"Finance has globalised, so why should we not ask finance to participate in stabilising the world by taking a tax on each financial transaction."
Mr. Sarkozy vowed to press for a global tax when France is head of the Group of 20 and Group of Eight countries next year.
He also said France would increase its payments to the U.N. fund on AIDS and malaria.
U.N. officials estimate that at least $120 billion will have to be found over the next five years to hope to meet the eight goals.
Aid groups, however, say much more will be needed and have expressed doubts about the political will to meet the goals, set in 2000.
Politicians have also indicated some doubts.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel said at the meeting that not all the targets would be met in all countries by 2015.
Africa made increasingly strident criticism of wealthy nations.
Georges Rebelo Chukoti, Angola's secretary of state for external relations, said: "The fight against poverty cannot be won only with the holding of conferences and summits to negotiate more commitments to development.
"Overcoming hunger and poverty requires primarily that we implement the international commitments we have already made.

Tweets by @stsuclRecognition for STS public engagement training
28 June 2013
The STS department, in collaboration with UCL's Public Engagement Unit and UCL Outreach, has recently developed a suite of new training courses for postgraduate students relating to public engagement skills. The courses, run as part of the Graduate School's Skills Development Programme, were piloted for the first time this year, to great acclaim by the participants involved. Feedback from the courses included:
I thought that the course was overall amazing. We heard from many different people and perspectives and were practically introduced to "what it's all about". Overall this was amazing from the group work to the presentations and idea development.
This course was amazingly fun. It was presented in a lively manner with speakers who are clearly very engaged with their work and strive to enable others to do so. The participants, as well, really gave their all to make the day an enlightening experience.
A very entertaining course with loads of information and resources about planning activities with school students. Even if you don't have any specific idea in mind, join in and get inspired!
The courses were led by Dr Karen Bultitude and Dr Simon Lock in partnership with various specialists within UCL, representing a coherent approach to the overall programme that celebrated the outstanding existing expertise in various forms of public engagement within UCL. The sessions covered a range of practical and theoretical perspectives, and were explicitly designed to provide participants with appropriate background information and support to be able to directly apply the tools and techniques to communicating their own research topics effectively. They also tied into Professor Steve Miller's existing research communication workshops.
The success of the coherent nature of these courses has recently been recognised by The Guardian as a key example of best practice in university public engagement. The new courses were identified as ensuring that "no one learns skills in a vacuum. You don't just learn how to make a podcast (for example), you also get to understand how podcasts fit into a wider public engagement agenda."
The programme will continue in 2013/14 and is likely to incorporate additional key topics such as science festivals, facilitation skills, and broadcast media. Further information about the 2012/13 courses is available on the Graduate School website at http://courses.grad.ucl.ac.uk/course-details.pht?course_ID=2354.

Wal-Mart cares more about the appearance of security than about a 76-year-old in "target" (marked with flashing lights) vehicle and unarmed. Their "security" is often so constrained by rules as to be worse than USELESS as the ivory tower executives decide to enact policies that endager lives of honest, working people.SEPT 9 2009
A security officer working for a private security company and assigned to parking lot patrol at a Wal-Mart on Wilkerson Blvd. has been kidnapped, carjacked and beaten and is in critical condition.
Police say that the 76 year old security officer was patrolling the parking lot at around 1am in a company pick-up truck when he was kidnapped and taken several blocks away where he was beaten about the head, face and upper body.
The security officer was discovered laying on a street several hours later and rushed to an area hospital but is in critical condition. Police have no suspects but are checking surveillance from the store's cameras.
So they check the videos - after the fact. A dangerous charade and not enough commitment by Wal-Mart for real-time eyes on the monitors. Do you think that Wal-Mart has its priorities straight?!
Do you think that Wal-Mart parking lots are a place to be in Condition White?!
The Wal-Mart security strategy of endangering security officers while witholding the investment necessary to pay more than lip service to security is scoring for the bad guys.

Lake Cumberland State Resort Park fall foliage is transforming daily into a myriad of colors. The sassafras, black gum, dogwood, and sumac are swirling spicy red and deep crimson hues across the landscape, as the walnut and tulip trees add a splash of yellow and gold here and there. We are at about 15% full peak colors at this time, but the anticipation of cooler weather might hasten the arrival of more beautiful cornucopia of fall colors.
This would be a fantastic time to make your camping plans for our Camperama Weekend, October 3 – 5, 2014. The weather is cooperating nicely and what better time to camp with all the beautiful fall colors arriving. Just get your tents /campers, grab the hotdogs and marshmallows, build a nice warm campfire and you are set!
There is fun for everyone including a host of activities such as: a nature walk, youth archery, miniature golf tournament, motorcade, basketball shoot and more! It's a camper's special, camp two nights for the price of one!

Yates keen to build on steady start
The former Kidderminster manager took the reins from caretaker boss John Schofield back on December 22 and has enjoyed a promising start to his tenure, although he admits there is still much work to be done. Yates said: "We've made steady progress without doing anything flash, we know we need a couple of wins - that will lift everybody. "We need a couple of home performances that will get us a win as well but, on the whole, five unbeaten away from home although we haven't won at home. We've done okay. "We knew we weren't coming into somewhere where everything is rosy. We knew there would be a lot of hard work to be done and there still is. I think we've done okay but there's plenty of room for improvement." He added: "Throughout the whole season we perhaps haven't scored enough goals and created enough chances but we're trying to address that and improve everything about the football club. We've made ourselves a little bit harder to beat and hopefully we can get a couple of results that will really spark us off."

"It was exactly what we had hoped it would be. This was the perfect combination of elegance and beauty. It is exactly how we wanted to announce the birth of our child."
"The matte cards are nice and thick. The photo was printed beautifully on the matte card stock. The design is nice and clean and simple. Loved this."
"Beautiful birth announcement. Good quality paper. I ended up needing more and the additional announcements were shipped out immediately. Excellent customer service- would definitely order other products."
"I thought the card looked amazing when designing it, but was blown away by the style and quality one printed! These announcements were simply stunning and look like we spent a small fortune, when we really didn't! I can wait for our next purchase!"
"We used the flat photo card to memorialize our beautiful golden retriever. We ordered the matte version, and his photo on the front of the card was just stunning. On the back, we wrote a little poem about him. The tinyprints staff was able to center the text perfectly for us. The card stock was definitely quality. We were so pleased with the finished product and received many compliments on it. We have already used tinyprints again."

Parry rues missed opportunities
Tranmere boss Les Parry said his side were a "little bit unfortunate" not to beat Accrington Stanley over 90 minutes, having seen his side exit the Johnstone's Paint Trophy on penalties.Enoch Showunmi missed the vital penalty for the League One side after the tie had finished 1-1 at the end of 90 minutes, with Showunmi cancelling out Ray Putterill's early strike.Rovers came close to settling the tie on several occasions but their ineptitude in front of goal left Parry bemoaning missed opportunities."A young side performed to a good level but we did not put away our chances", he said. "But no excuses for not going through."We have had a lot of injuries and the fans needs to show a bit of patience. The latest blow was the loss of our skipper John Welsh at half-time and he could be out for three to four weeks."It was ironic that Enoch Showunmi should miss from the spot in the penalty shootout but it was his goal that got us into that situation. I am not a fan of penalties but that is the way it is and one miss means we are out of the competition."

White Knight
Part of a series on Internet Slang. [View Related Entries]
"White Knight" (also known as "Internet White Knight") is a pejorative term used to describe men who defend women on the Internet with the assumption that they are looking for a romantic reward in return.
The term "white knight" is derived from the knight-errant stock character, a medieval figure in romance literature that would perform various acts to prove his chivalry. According to Wikipedia,[1] the term "knight-errant" was first recorded in the 14th-century poem Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, but was developed as a romance genre character during the late 12th century. The first Urban Dictionary[4] definition was submitted by user Jake on November 3rd, 2004, which defined the phrase as a male who attempts to aid a woman in distress.
On January 17th, 2007, the Internet humor site Something Awful[10] published a post titled "A Few Words on the Internet White Knight," which criticized white knights for being indiscriminate in the women they choose to defend. On January 6th, 2009, Urban Dictionary[3] member abstractsplash submitted an entry for "Internet White Knight," defining the term as "someone who stands up for girls on the Internet they barely know." On June 23rd, BodyBuilding Forums[11] member QB_Killa submitted a thread listing several signs that someone had become a white knight. On September 1st, IGN Forums[13] member DarkChronic submitted a thread titled "So wait, someone explain what an 'Internet white knight' is to me," to which member D.Bills embedded an image of a knight sitting at a computer with strike marks on his wall counting the number of women he had rescued online (shown below).
On April 30th, 2010, a thread was created on the /tv/ (Television and Film) board on 4chan,[9] in which a user was referred to as a "white knight" for requesting others refrain from making fun of rape. The same day, the Internet news blog Urlesque[12] published an article by staff writer Nick Douglas titled "The Five Most Annoying Kinds of Internet Scolds," listing "The Internet White Knight" as a manipulator that attempts to win over women by defending them online. On August 7th, a page for "White Knighting" was created on TV Tropes,[5] which associated the meme with the "Bully Hunter,"[6] "Knight in Shining Armor"[7] and "Damsel in Distress"[8] tropes. On November 19th, 2011, a Facebook[2] page for "White Knight" was created, which received over 625 likes within one year.
On January 17th, 2011, YouTuber EtherealAntichrist uploaded a video titled "Enonymity [sic] and White Knighting," which argued that white knighting is a practice that should be encouraged (shown below).

Some things, Destined_Fate, are wrong no matter what.
I am of chinese ancestry. We used to bind the feet of little girls because we believed that small feet were beautiful. You know what happens when you tightly bind little girl's feet? By the time she's ten, she's practically crippled, with deformed feet. She doesn't walk, she shuffles slowly, in constant pain. But my soceity said it was okay, so there is nothing wrong in crippling the feet of little girls, for the rest of their lives. Arab culture is tribal based. Men of the tribe can steal, rape, murder - so long as it is for the tribe's interests, everything is permitted, nothing is forbidden. But if a girl of the tribe is raped by her own family, she is cast put and killed for bringing dishonor to the tribe, when she was just a victim. But that's what their soceity says, so I guess it's okay. I'm also of Indian heritage. Indians prefer boys to girls. Girls are considered useless. In the villages, baby girls will be killed because they are not as precious as boys. But that's what their soceity says, so you're excusing this bad behaviour. I'm going to quote someone who sums up my thoughts on this: "Doesn't matter what the press says. Doesn't matter what the politicians or the mobs say. Doesn't matter if the whole country decides that something wrong is something right. This nation was founded on one principle above all else: the requirement that we stand up for what we believe, no matter the odds or the consequences. When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth, and tell the whole world -- No, you move." Some things are objectively wrong. We should recognise bad behaviour that is being practised by the characters.

Society does not determine if racism exists. It only can determine whether racism is seen as a bad thing by that society. This does not change whether the society is real or fictional. Picking an example out of the air, in Dragon Age there are racist attitudes in human society against elves. In real life, during WWII there was nationalism against Germans and Japanese (combined with racism against the Japanese). Society at that time said it was fine to act that way. Now, society says that we were wrong back then to have those attitudes. Note also that it's completely possible that in TE, perhaps the people of that world (if they haven't been nommed up by BETA by then) will look back at 2001 and say "Man, we were a bunch of racist dicks back then, weren't we?" Heck, the character development we're seeing with Yuuya right here and now in this episode is to begin to work past his anti-Japanese prejudice (at least as far as to begin to value Japanese TSFs). Those are value judgments--right and wrong, good and evil--and they fluctuate over time. But you cannot say that society can determine that bigotry and prejudice don't exist just because the society as a whole happens to approve of them. Edit: With specific reference to Goose's ninja post, it's further only to be expected that we as individuals watching the show will decide that certain elements of the things depicted there are good or bad depending on what we believe as people. If the ethics depicted by the show are out of whack with what we think, we're justified in saying so and explaining why.

And again you're wrong for trying to force you RL views in a setting that is vastly different. To them it isn't racism it's just business as usual.
No you're wrong. Society decides it(Which is why things that were okay in the past are no longer deemed okay today because Society evolved over time and decided that those things are wrong. While back than they were acceptable). We can say that the Romans were racist but back than they never even saw it as such nor did society or their defeated enemies. It's just how they did things. So no, it isn't racism because society in TE doesn't see it as racism nor do they care all that much about it. Thus Yui saw nothing wrong with berating Yuuya because as far as she's concerned he is kin. Let's take an example than. Let's say in the future it's considered a grave sin to have a family because of overpopulation issues yet in right now it isn't an issue and no one even thinks about something like that. Sure it's a sin in the future to have a family but at this time period it isn't since society has no issues with families. And they already showed you why things are out of wake. Important events that helped shape our world happen MUCH differently in TE than there's the BETA threat as well. That's why things are different and why it's foolish to expect things to be like RL anyway despite this very major changes. |

As a mod, I just want to ask everyone to take it easy on this morality/ethics debate, because it could easily get even more heated and spin out of control. This is the sort of stuff real life wars are fought over. I think the discussion is interesting, but it's probably better to give it a rest. The views expressed are pretty clear, so you may all just need to agree to disagree for now.

So I am all for Relentless's suggestion on agreeing to disagree. And quite frankly, I find nothing wrong with that. Its good that people can form their own opinions and make well thought out reasons why they want to defend it.

Racist is a very strong term, and while I do see a lot of nationalism in this show, I'm not sure I'd go so far to call either of the major characters a racist. Also, saying that Yuuya is racist against the Japanese seems a bit odd to me, as he's half-Japanese (racially) himself. In any event, Dezo, I think you're throwing around a very loaded term a bit haphazardly on this thread.

[mod edit: Removed flamebait that revives old debate]
That said, Yuuya is being racist - while he's half-Japanese, he hates his Japanese half, and his reaction towards Yui is similar to the reactions of those who were racist towards him. It is possible for someone who is mixed-race to be racist towards the part of them that they hate. I have some first hand experience of that.

CytRx Announces Favorable Results From Phase 1b/2 Clinical Trial With INNO-206
CytRx Corporation (NASDAQ: CYTR), a biopharmaceutical company specializing in oncology, announces that favorable clinical results from its Phase 1b/2 clinical trial with its tumor-targeting doxorubicin conjugate INNO-206 in patients with advanced solid tumors, primarily soft tissue sarcomas, are being presented today at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) conference in Chicago. All patients in the study had either not responded to or relapsed after treatment with between one and three prior chemotherapy regimens.
Clinical benefit (defined as partial response and stable disease of more than four months following up to eight cycles of treatment) with INNO-206 at the maximum tolerated dose was shown in 10 of 13 (76.9%) evaluable patients with relapsed or refractory soft tissue sarcoma.
In addition, best response for the 13 evaluable soft tissue sarcoma trial subjects included the following:
- Five (38.5%) achieved partial response, as defined as tumor shrinkage of more than 30%
- Seven (53.8%) showed prolonged stable disease (defined as tumor shrinkage <30% from baseline or tumor growth <20% from the nadir)
- Eight (61.5%) had tumor shrinkage
- Five of eight patients (62.5%) who demonstrated either partial responses or prolonged stable disease after treatment with INNO-206 had been previously treated with doxorubicin and had failed to respond.
There were no observed cardiac toxicities and no drug-related patient deaths. The most common adverse event, neutropenia, also observed with doxorubicin treatment, resolved prior to the start of the next treatment.
Median estimated progression-free survival for advanced soft tissue sarcoma patients in the trial was 6.4 months with a range of 1.0 to more than 10.7 months. This compares favorably with the historical median progression-free survival for this patient population of approximately 3 months.
