Selling my in dash with navigation. I don't need it anymore so that is why i'm selling it so cheap. It's a great deck but i'm gonna probably go to a single din because i'm going with a custom gauge set up. Eclipse makes our decks now so our factory plugs plug right into this deck. No need for splicing. Just plug and go. This deck is really simple to install.... You use your factory plugs to plug into the deck.

Enhanced multikey mono?
I redesigned my polyvoice module (downloadable from the toolbox) so it keeps a history list of previous notes which are still on, in played order. This is useful for an enhanced mono mode where one can keep play a bass line with the left hand and a fast lead on the right, and when the right hand releases all keys, the monophonic output generates a pitch/gate pair for the last played note. Has anyone suggestions on the UI options for this?
Meanwhile It took me a while to figure out how to stop wiring congestion for the output logic. What I did was put the outlets in a row and the inlets in a column, making a wire grid. Before I did this I had some wiring problem that prevented addition of a bank list for MIDI multi mode. Now it's crystal clear :)
So while waiting for any real feedback, I made a single control input for a DUO channel wrapper around the polyvoice object which accepts the following attributes:
VOICES – Sets the total number of voices allocated for both channels in the poly~ object and allocator.
SPLITNOTE – Sets the pitch for channel splits, in MIDI pitch tones.
SPLIT - Sets duo-channel mode, with values:
- 0 – Notes below SPLITNOTE go to channel 1, above SPLITNOTE, go to channel 2.
- 1 – Notes go to both channel1 and channel 2.
- 2 – Notes go to channel 1.
- 3 – Notes go to channel 2.
DETUNE – Sets an amount, in cents, by which channel 2 is detuned from channel 1.
XP1 – Sets transposition of channel 1 from received pitch, in semitones.
XP2 – Sets transposition of channel 2 from received pitch, in semitones.
On each new note, the duo object resends the parameters for that channel to the voice before sending it a note. That way the two channels can be in the same poly~ object. The example contains a subtractive synth patch with separate panels to set the parameters for channel 1 and channel 2.

(KMOV.com) - A Florissant man says his apartment is overrun with brown recluse spiders.
Darryl Hamilton says he's been killing the spiders since he moved into the Delrado Apartments in March. Hamilton says exterminators have been sent but the spiders with a poisonous bite keep coming back.
"I've seen them everywhere man, not groups at a time, kill one here, one there, but the fact is they are brown recluse spiders, that's what scares me," Hamilton said.
News 4 sent pictures of the spiders from Hamilton's apartment to the St. Louis Zoo and the Missouri Department of Natural Resources, both of whom said the spiders appear to be brown recluse spiders.
No one in the office at the apartments was willing to comment.
Hamilton says he hasn't been bitten but he'd like to get out of his lease and leave before that happens.

Charges have been filed against 4 people in connection to a stabbing incident at an MSU-Mankato dormitory Friday, in what authorities are now calling a "Marijuana Deal Gone Bad." The assault took place in MSU's McElroy Residence Hall. 18-year-old Kjontra Dupre Diamond of Coon Rapids was reportedly visiting his girlfriend, 18-year-old Jamie Elizabeth Beck when 2 men broke into the room. MSU Building Services Employee 22-year-old David Mulbah Swaray and MSU Student 18-year-old Brandon Jonathan Brown have been charged with burglary and assault after allegedly breaking into the dorm room. They were apparently there in retaliation to Diamond stealing a bag of marijuana the night before, and said that he was the one with a knife and was cut while they attempted to disarm him. Diamond and Beck are facing robbery charges, and authorities say that others may be charged as well.

Mounting urgency as Asian carp threaten the Great Lakes
A congressional hearing this week on Asian carp in the Great Lakes region raises scientific questions and political difficulties. What are the best ways to prevent invasive fish from proliferating, and what would be the economic impact of blocking their passage from the Mississippi River?
Manuel Balce Ceneta/AP
Washington's focus on snowfall this week was briefly diverted by fish – Asian carp – that threaten to invade and then gobble their way through the Great Lakes ecosystem, likely ruining the pleasure boating and fishing industries of abutting states and Canadian provinces.
Though a looming snow storm caused many official activities in Washington to be cancelled, congressional hearings on the fish threat sailed ahead Tuesday in a nearly empty hearing room – propelled by a mounting sense of urgency and scientific warnings that some Asian carp are even now in Lake Michigan.
The hearings came on the heels of a White House summit Monday to help state and federal stakeholders unite around a plan to fight the threatened invasion by the bighead and silver carp species, which have been working their way north since they escaped from Louisiana catfish farms around 1993. The summit produced a $78.5 million budget and thick "control strategy framework" that identified steps that could be taken.
Critics want specific steps and a timetable
The document was hailed as a unified plan by some and criticized by others for failing to identify specific steps to take – and a specific timetable for implementing them.

Animal Instincts
Happy Friday, chicks! Do you have any big plans this weekend? I will be relaxing and getting things done around the house...seems like such an ongoing process lately. Speaking of the home, I've been searching for a few animal-inspired pieces to add to our abode. I stumbled upon some pretty great things, and wanted to share a few of my favorites with you. I am hoping to add the aluminum steer horns to our living room - stay tuned! And, how amazing is the urchin chandelier?
Have a great weekend!

ReplyDeleteI love the pig book ends! Too cute! Definitely adds masculine touch to the room :)
Lubalovely.comLove the couch! I've been looking for a sectional that doesn't look "cheap" (sorry all sectional lovers) but you found a great looking sectional. I read you bought this from macys, do you mind sharing the name of the couch or style? The color choice is great too especially with having a baby or for a 14 month in my case :)

During her appearance on The View, Swift was asked by Sherri Shepherd if she'd want to meet with with Kanye face-to-face, her response was "Sure. I mean he has not personally reached out." Barbara Walters followed up by asking, "He hasn't called or sent a message or anything?" Swift responded with a simple, "No." The conversation continued, but near the end of the topic Whoopi told Taylor "Well hopefully, if Kanye is watching, he'll know what to do." Kanye seems to have received the message.

Microsoft lays into Google for 'invading Gmail users privacy' by scanning contents of emails to target personalised adverts
- Latest attack is part of the software company's Scroogled campaign
- Includes sinister quotes from Google executive chairman Eric Schmidt
- But Microsoft's privacy policy also allows it to serve personalised ads
Microsoft took a fresh pop at Google yesterday, accusing its rival of invading Gmail users' privacy when scanning the contents of their emails to target them with personalised ads.
The attack, the latest volley in Microsoft's Scroogled campaign, comes with a website and is aimed to boost interest in the veteran software company's Outlook.com email service.
It follows a series of Scroogled adverts last year which targeted Google's controversial privacy policies.
Scroogled! Microsoft's website to accompany its latest campaign taking a swipe at Google for its policy of scanning Gmail users' emails to target adverts
'Google goes through every Gmail that's sent or received, looking for keywords so they can target Gmail users with paid ads,' the website says
'And there's no way to opt out of this invasion of your privacy.'
It also includes a feed of quotes from Google executive chairman Eric Schmidt.
These include his infamous declaration that '[i]f you have something that you don't want anyone to know, maybe you shouldn't be doing it in the first place.'
And also: 'We don't need you to type at all. We know where you are, with your permission; we know where you've been, with your permission; we can more or less know what you're thinking about.'
According to data from a survey by Mozaic group published on the Scroogled micro-site, 71 per cent of people don't know that Gmail and some email services scan the texts of the messages they send and receive to target advertising.
That same survey showed that 87 per cent of Gmail users feel that using the content of their messages in this was is 'an invasion of their privacy'.
'If you're a Gmail user, Google scans all of your sent and received messages, extracts keywords that they think are relevant to you, and then uses that data to target you with ads,' the website says.
'And if you're not a Gmail user but have at some point sent an email to someone that uses Gmail, Google has scanned your message, extracted keywords, and used that data to serve ads to the recipient of your email.'
'Invasion of privacy': Microsoft included this example screengrab from a Gmail conversation with the key words and related adverts highlighted to show how Google scans emails to deliver ads
Stefan Weitz, Microsoft's senior director of online services, told MailOnline: 'One of the key things that separates us from Gmail is the fact that we don't invade your privacy by going through your emails with the express intent of targeting ads.
'Public opinion, at least in the U.S., is very much against this practice. Nearly 70 per cent don't even know it's happening and when they do find out, 88 per cent say it should stop.
'This is a pretty staggering statistic.
'In order to help people hear about this issue, we have taken a little more cheeky tone than we normally might.'
Mr Weitz added: 'There are a ton of unanswered questions about Gmail's practices yet Google continues to mail journos a bland statement about how ads improve the product for consumers.
'Unanswered are how Google use information from Gmail scanning to build profiles, how long those live, where that information is used, and more'
'Unanswered are how they use information from Gmail scanning to build profiles, how long those live, where that information is used, and more.
'With all their privacy and choice gaffes over the past year, this is not just some inflammatory campaign to get people over to Outlook.com – it hopefully encourages them to be more transparent about how and what they are doing.
'Most importantly, it will hopefully get them to offer users a choice to opt out of these invasive ads (which they can't) or provide them options to have the ads removed (other than signing up for a Google Apps account which, by the way, still has the ad serving code enabled. Why that is no one is sure.)
'There are real issues here around consumer choice and privacy in email. We think we have an excellent product in Outlook.com.
'We want users to know the difference between what we do and what they do. They scan your private communications to target ads and there is no easy way to opt out. We don't.'
Very personal: A Microsoft spokesman admitted the company's campaign was 'cheeky' but added that the company had taken that tone to ensure that people are aware of the issues
Some industry observers have argued that Microsoft's aggressive marketing campaign is selective with the truth. For example, the site claims there is now way to opt out of Gmail's targeted advertising, but there is.
Search engine marketing expert Danny Sullivan wrote on the Marketing Land blog: 'Is the campaign fair? I'd say mostly no, but there are some things that Google could do to improve things.'
ITProPortal pointed out that Microsoft's own privacy policies say that the company's services 'may include the display of personalised content and advertising.'
But on the Scroogled site Microsoft claims it only scans email to detect spam and other security related purposes.
'Just like the postal service sorts and scans mail and packages for dangerous explosives and biohazards, Outlook.com scans your mail to help prevent spam, gray mail, phishing scams, viruses, malware,' the site says.
'Microsoft and its email services... do not use the content of customers' private emails, communications, or documents to target advertising.'
Google's privacy policy says it also 'scans the text of Gmail messages in order to filter spam and detect viruses, just as all major webmail services do.'
However, it adds, 'Google also uses this scanning technology to deliver targeted text ads and other related information. This is completely automated and involves no humans.'

K-ON!: Volume 1(TV) (2009)It's Yui Hirasawa's first year in high school, and she's eagerly searching for a club to join. At the same time, Ritsu Tainaka, a drummer, and her friend Mio Akiyama, a bassist, are desperately trying to save the school's light music club, which is about to be disbanded due to lack of members. They manage to recruit Tsumugi Kotobuki to play the keyboard, meaning they only need one more member to get the club running again. Yui joins, thinking it will be an easy experience for her to play the castanets, the only instrument she knows. However, the other members think their new addition is actually a guitar prodigy... For more about K-ON!: Volume 1 and the K-ON!: Volume 1 Blu-ray release, see K-ON!: Volume 1 Blu-ray Review published by Jeffrey Kauffman on April 27, 2011 where this Blu-ray release scored 3.5 out of 5. Starring: Aki Toyosaki, Yoko Hikasa, Satomi Sato, Minako Kotobuki, Laura Bailey, Stephanie Sheh Director: Naoko Yamada » See full cast & crew K-ON!: Volume 1 Blu-ray, Video QualityK-On! is not the most incredibly detailed anime ever released (even within the confines of the Bandai universe), so its AVC encoded 1080p transfer in 1.78:1, while fine by its own standards, probably won't overly excite "outsiders" to anime television series. This is a rather surprisingly uncolorful series, albeit flashes of deeply saturated hues come into play as the girls choose their instruments, and the episode featuring the girls working as waitresses has some nice diffuse light effects which help to give some visual variety. The image here is suitably sharp, but this is anime that has not been overly developed, so frequently whole faces go blank, features of various sets are left to the imagination, and there simply isn't a huge variety of detail within the drawings themselves that the Blu-ray can exploit. K-ON!: Volume 1 Blu-ray, Audio QualityBandai only provides two lossy tracks on this Blu-ray, the original Japanese track, and an English dub, both in Dolby Digital 2.0 mixes. There's nothing hideous to complain about in either of these tracks, and voice work is clear and consistent in both of them, but for a series emphasizing music the way this one does, one has to wonder why at least a stereo LPCM uncompressed track wasn't provided in at least one of the languages. These are both completely serviceable tracks without having much of a "wow" factor. While the music elements sound fine, there's a lot of great power chord guitar playing going on here, and a lossless track would have emphasized the low end especially, upping the allure of this release considerably.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Jumping the broom is a phrase and custom relating to a wedding ceremony where the couple jumps over a broom. The custom is historically associated with the Romani people of the United Kingdom,[1][2] especially those in Wales,[3] but it is now more widespread among African Americans, popularized in the 1970s by the novel and miniseries Roots but originating in the mid 19th century as a practice in antebellum slavery in the United States.[4]
References to 'broomstick marriages' emerged in England in the mid-to-late 18th century, always to describe a wedding ceremony of doubtful validity. The earliest use of the phrase is in the 1764 English edition of a French work: the French text, describing an elopement, refers to the runaway couple hastily making 'un mariage sur la croix de l'épée' (literally 'marriage on the cross of the sword'), an expression the English translator freely renders as 'performed the marriage ceremony by leaping over a broomstick'.[5]
A 1774 usage in the Westminster Magazine also describes an elopement. A man who had taken his under-age bride off to France discovered it was as hard to arrange a legal marriage there as in England, but declined a suggestion that a French sexton might simply read the marriage service through before the couple as "He had no inclination for a Broomstick-marriage".[6] In 1789 the rumoured clandestine marriage between the Prince Regent and Maria Fitzherbert is similarly referred to in a satirical song in The Times: "Their way to consummation was by hopping o'er a broom, sir",.[7]
Despite these allusions, research by the legal historian Professor R. Probert of Warwick University has failed to find any proof of an actual contemporary practice of jumping over a broomstick as a sign of informal union. Probert also points out that the word 'broomstick' was used in the mid-18th century in several contexts to mean 'something ersatz, or lacking the authority its true equivalent might possess.' She therefore argues that because the expression 'broomstick marriage', meaning 'sham marriage', was in circulation, folk etymology led to a belief that people must actually have once signified irregular marriage by jumping over a broom.[5]
There are later examples of the term 'broomstick marriage' being used in Britain, always with a similar implication that the ceremony so performed did not create a legally binding union. This meaning survived into the early nineteenth century: during a case heard in London in 1824 regarding the legal validity of a marriage ceremony consisting of nothing more than the groom placing a ring on the bride's finger before witnesses, a court official commented that the ceremony "amounted to nothing more than a broomstick marriage, which the parties had it in their power to dissolve at will."[8]
A decade later, the 1836 Marriage Act, which introduced civil marriage, was contemptuously referred to as the 'Broomstick Marriage Act' by those who felt that a marriage outside the Anglican church did not deserve legal recognition.[9] Some also began to use the phrase to refer to non-marital unions: a man interviewed in Mayhew's London Labour and the London Poor admitted: "I never had a wife, but I have had two or three broomstick matches, though they never turned out happy."[10]
Tinkers were said to have a similar custom of marriage called "jumping the budget", with the bride and groom jumping over a string or other symbolic obstacle.[11]
Charles Dickens' novel, Great Expectations (first published in serial form in the publication All the Year Round from 1 December 1860 to August 1861), contains a reference in chapter 48 to a couple having been married "over the broomstick." The ceremony is not portrayed, but the reference indicates that the readers would have recognized this as referring to an informal, not a legally valid, agreement.[12]
It has often been assumed that, in England, jumping over the broom (or sometimes walking over a broom), always indicated an irregular or non-church union (as in the expressions "Married over the besom", "living over the brush"),[13] but there are examples of the phrase being used in the context of legal weddings, both religious and civil.[14]
Other sources have stepping over a broom as a test of chastity, while putting out a broom was also said to be a sign 'that the housewife's place is vacant' and a way, therefore, of advertising for a wife.[15]
In America the phrase could be used as slang describing the act of getting married legally, rather than as specifying an informal union not recognised by church or state.[16]
In Wales, Romani couples would get married by eloping, when they would "jump the broom," or over a branch of flowering broom or a besom made of broom.[3] Welsh Kale and English Romanichal Gypsies and Romanichal populations in Scotland practised the ritual into the 1900s.[3] The Welsh people themselves practiced a centuries-old custom, priodas coes ysgub ("broom-stick wedding"),[17] alluded to in Dundes' work. Local variations of the custom were developed in different parts of England and Wales. Instead of placing the broom on the ground, and jumping together, the broom was placed in an angle by the doorway. The groom jumped first, followed by the bride.[18] In southwest England, in Wales, and in the border areas between Scotland and England, "[while some] couples ... agreed to marry verbally, without exchanging legal contracts[,] .... [o]thers jumped over broomsticks placed across their thresholds to officialize their union and create new households", indicating that contractless weddings and jumping the broomstick were different kinds of marriage.[19]
According to Alan Dundes (1996) the custom originated among Romani Gypsies in Wales (Welsh Kale Gypsies) and England (English Romanichal Gypsies).[20]
C.W. Sullivan III (1997) in a reply to Dundes argued that the custom originated among the Welsh people themselves, since the custom was known in Wales prior to the 18th century when he believed Gypsies arrived there.[clarification needed][21] Historical records, however, show that Gypsies actually arrived in Wales earlier, in 1579.[22] A more serious problem with Sullivan's claim is the complete lack of evidence that the custom even existed in Wales in the 18th century. His source, the Welsh folklorist Gwenith Gwynn (a.k.a. W. Rhys Jones),[23] assumed that the custom had once existed on the basis of conversations with elderly Welsh people during the 1920s, none of whom had ever seen such a practice. One had claimed that: "It must have disappeared before I was born, and I am seventy-three". Others had heard of the practice, but all were unclear on the details, their evidence being peppered with phrases such as "it must have" and "I should think". Gwynn's dating of the custom to the 18th century rested on the assumption that it must have disappeared before these elderly interviewees were born, and on his misreading of the baptism register of the parish of Llansantffraid Glyn Ceiriog.[24]
In some African-American communities, marrying couples will end their ceremony by jumping over a broomstick, either together or separately. This practice is well attested for as a "mock marriage" ceremony for slaves in the Southern United States in the 1840s and 1850s. Its revival in 20th century African American culture is due to the novel and miniseries Roots (1976, 1977).[citation needed]
Dundes (1996) notes the unusual development of how "a custom which slaves were forced to observe by their white masters has been revived a century later by African Americans as a treasured tradition". While it has sometimes been speculated that the custom may have origins in West Africa, there is no evidence for this.[25] An arguable candidate for a geographic origin of the custom in Africa might be Ghana where brooms were waved above the heads of newlyweds and their parents.[26] Among southern Africans, who were largely not a part of the Atlantic slave trade, it represented the wife's commitment or willingness to clean the courtyard of the new home she had joined.[26] In spite of this, Jones (2003) asserts that "jumping over the broom was definitely a feature in both European and African wedding ceremonies"[clarification needed][27]
In the American south, the custom determined who ran the household: whoever jumped highest over the broom was the decision maker of the household.[citation needed] Or, alternatively, whoever landed on the ground first after jumping the broom was predicted to be the decision maker in the marriage.[citation needed]
Slave-owners were faced with a dilemma regarding committed relationships between slaves. While some family stability might be desirable as helping to keep slaves tractable and pacified, anything approaching a legal marriage was not. Marriage gave a couple rights over each other which conflicted with the slave-owners' claims.[28] Most marriages between enslaved blacks were not legally recognized during American slavery,[29] as in law marriage was held to be a civil contract, and civil contracts required the consent of free persons.[30] In the absence of any legal recognition, the slave community developed its own methods of distinguishing between committed and casual unions.[31] The ceremonial jumping of the broom served as an open declaration of settling down in a marriage relationship. Jumping the broom was always done before witnesses as a public ceremonial announcement that a couple chose to become as close to married as was then allowed.[32]
Jumping the broom also fell out of practice due to the stigma it carried, and in some cases still carries, among black Americans wishing to forget the horrors of slavery.[33] The practice did survive in some communities, however, and made a resurgence after the publication of Alex Haley's Roots[34]
Danita Rountree Green describes the contemporary form of the African American custom in her book Broom Jumping: A Celebration of Love (1992).
American singer-songwriter, Brenda Lee, released the rockabilly song "Let's Jump the Broomstick" on Decca Records in 1959. Some Wiccans have also adopted the custom.[35][36][37]
A film titled Jumping the Broom, directed by Salim Akil, and starring Paula Patton & Laz Alonso was released on 6 May 2011.

I was browsing in Gagnaire's site and saw many different menus. There is no price for any of them.
There is the lunch menu(115 ) and Le menu esprit, both of them different but with the same amount of dishes etc.
Then there is the degustation(290), the game menu and the a la carte.
Also there is a christmas menu available for the whole december from monday to friday with interesting dishes, and the desserts PG , are now desserts de Noel.
Anyone tried the christmas menu in a previous year? or is this the first time there is a Christmas menu. I have seen Gordon Ramsay at RHR to have festiv menus, but no sample menu on his site.
Estimated price for this?
One last question since I m planning to visit the restaurant. Is it ok to ask for a photo with PG if he is in the restaurant?
re: lhenry
The menu is a december special lunch (only) menu; probably the same price as the regular lunch menu.
It looks really good (foie gras, st-jacques, and poulet de bresse + christmas dessert)
There's also a december 31st special dinner. (probably in the same range as the regular tasting menu )
re: Maximilien
I saw in a blog about a meal 5 years ago..(2008) that the christmas lunch menu was at 140 euros while the regular lunch menu was 105.
The game menu looks really interesting too, but I bet it will be more than the menu degustation.
re: Giannis
The game menu is an "a la carte" menu; this is what I had a couple years ago.
Each course is a collection of small plates.
re: Maximilien
Right,thanks. I was confused maybe because they have it online with options seperated as starters and main course.
I hope the Menu de Noel is also Gagnaire style.(small plates)
A couple of years ago, I was there for lunch and after Gagnaire walked around the room, I asked the waiter by gestures from afar if he could take a picture of us. He mistook my signaling (or perhaps not) and went to get the chef who was very gracious and sat with us for a picture.

Species laboratory mouse Donating Investigator Dr. Simon John, The Jackson Laboratory Description
These mice express a spectral variant of GFP (cyan-CFP) at high levels in motor and sensory neurons, as well as subsets of central neurons. Axons are brightly fluorescent all the way to the terminals. No expression is detectable in nonneural cells. This line provides a strong and specific vital marker for axons; fluorescence is also stable to mild aldehyde fixation. Expression is strong from a mid-gestational stage into adulthood. Availability of multiple spectral variants is useful for double-labeling applications, or breeding to other YFP/GFP lines.This strain is on a genetic background different from that on which the allele was first characterized. It should be noted that the phenotype could vary from that originally described. We will modify the strain description if necessary as published results become available.
A transgenic construct containing a CFP gene under the direction of regulatory elements derived from the mouse Thy1 gene was injected into fertilized B6CBAF1 mouse eggs. Regulatory elements are composed of a 6.5 kb fragment obtained from the 5' portion of the Thy1 gene, extending from the promoter to the intron following exon 4. Exon 3 and its flanking introns are absent. The deleted sequences are required for expression in non-neural cells but not in neurons. The remainder of the sequence is required for neuronal expression. Founder animals were obtained and crossed with wildtype C57BL/6J mice. This line was then backcrossed to C3.BliA Pde6b+ (see Stock No. 001912) for at least 45 generations by the donating laboratory.

EOS Bodies - For Stills / Re: Canon EOS-1D X DXOMark Sensor Scores

Thanks for the explanation preppyak.
This section allows you to view all posts made by this member. Note that you can only see posts made in areas you currently have access to.
Is that what they saying? I do not see it either.
$7000-$8000. Priced and marketed in parallel with the 1Dx as a flagship camera for the segment of users that complained about the 18mps of the 1Dx. You know who you are, now's your chance to put your money where your mouth is.
I have sold the 5D Mark III and hold the 1D X.Is the camera worth the $3k more? If so why?
They also would probably cry that BMW puts in restrictions on the US versions of the M5 that limit it's maximum horsepower and still charge you over $100k for the car.
so why we talking about all this??
just shut up, don´t voice your opinion.. buy or don´t buy canon stuff.. that is the solution for everything canon!!
What is appalling about this?
A macbook and a macbook with creative suite have the exact same hardware, yet the one with creative suite will cost you an extra 3.5k.
Youre essentially paying for the software that costs the company money and time to develop. Programmers arent free guys.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Cuteness is a subjective term describing a type of attractiveness commonly associated with youth and appearance, as well as a scientific concept and analytical model in ethology, first introduced by Konrad Lorenz.[1] Lorenz proposed the concept of baby schema (Kindchenschema), a set of facial and body features, that make a creature appear "cute" and activate ("release") in others the motivation to care for it.[2] Cuteness may be ascribed to people as well as things that are regarded as attractive or charming.[3]
Contents |
Cuteness is usually characterized by (though not limited to) some combination of infant-like physical traits, especially small body size with a disproportionately large head, large eyes, a pleasantly fair, though not necessarily small nose, dimples, and round and softer body features. Infantile personality traits, such as playfulness, fragility, helplessness, curiosity, innocence, affectionate behavior, and a need to be nurtured are also generally considered cute.
Konrad Lorenz argued in 1949 that infantile features triggered nurturing responses in adults and that this was an evolutionary adaptation which helped ensure that adults cared for their children, ultimately securing the survival of the species. As evidence, Lorenz noted that humans react more positively to animals that resemble infants—with big eyes, big heads, shortened noses, etc.—than to animals that do not.
That is, humans prefer animals which exhibit pedomorphosis. Pedomorphosis is the retention of childlike characteristics—such as big heads or large eyes—into adulthood. The widely perceived cuteness of domesticated animals, such as dogs and cats, may be due to the fact that humans selectively breed their pets for infant-like characteristics, including non-aggressive behavior and childlike appearance.
Some later scientific studies have provided further evidence for Lorenz's theory. For example, it has been shown that human adults react positively to infants who are stereotypically cute. Studies have also shown that responses to cuteness—and to facial attractiveness in general—seem to be similar across and within cultures.[6]
Additionally, the phenomenon is not restricted to humans. The young of many mammal and bird species share a similar set of typical physical proportions, beyond absolute body size, that distinguish them from adults of their own species. "Cute" features were also described in the recent finding of a baby Triceratops skull, suggesting that cuteness is an ancient and useful survival technique.[7]
The perceived cuteness of an infant is influenced by the gender and behavior of the infant.[9][10] In the Koyama et al. (2006) research, female infants are seen as cute for the physical attraction that female infants display more than male infants;[9] whereas research by Karraker (1990) demonstrates that a caregiver's attention and involvement in the male infant's protection could be solely based on the perception of happiness and attractiveness of the child.[10]
Cuteness is a major marketing tool in many cultures, such as that of Japan, with phenomena such as Pokémon or Hello Kitty. It is also an important selling point in the English-speaking world, where Elmo, Furby, Precious Moments, and many other cultural icons and products trade on their cuteness. It can be a factor in live action productions such as movies starring Shirley Temple, the Honey, I Shrunk The Kids trilogy, the Three Men and a Baby duology, and elements of One Good Cop, as well the successful documentary film March of the Penguins, where the noteworthy cuteness of the penguins was cited as a major reason for the film's outstanding appeal.[citation needed] This technique was emulated in the computer-animated film Happy Feet.
Stephen Jay Gould remarked on this phenomenon in an article for the journal Natural History, in which he pointed out that over time Mickey Mouse had been drawn more and more to resemble an infant—with a bigger head, bigger eyes, and so forth. Gould suggested that this change in Mickey's image was intended to increase his popularity by making him appear cuter.
The perception of cuteness is culturally diverse. The differences across cultures can be significantly associated to the need to be socially accepted.[12]
A study by Karraker (1990) suggested that "an adult's beliefs about the personality and expected behavior of an infant can influence the adult's interaction with the infant", and gave evidence that in this way "basic cuteness effects may occasionally be obscured in particular infants".[10]
Koyama (2006) said that an adult caregiver's perception of an infant's cuteness can motivate the amount of care and protection the caregiver provides, and the admiration demonstrated toward the infant, and concluded that "the adults' protective feeling for children appeared to be a more important criterion for the judgment of a boy's cuteness."[9]
Melanie Glocker (2009) provided experimental evidence that infants' cuteness motivates caretaking in adults, even if they are not related to the infant.[13] Glocker asked individuals to rate the level of cuteness of pictured infants and noted the motivation that these participants had to care for the infants. The research suggested that individuals' rating of the perceived cuteness of an infant corresponded to the level of motivation an individual had to care for this infant.[13] Melanie Glocker and colleagues then used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), to demonstrate that baby faces with higher content of baby schema features, generated more activation in the Nucleus Accumbens, a small brain area central to the motivation and reward.[2] This work elucidated the neural mechanism through which baby schema (Kindchenschema) may motivate ("release") caretaking behavior.

AM-POL Eagle: Promotional Print Brings Back Sweet Memories Of East Side Bakery
(Gregory Witul • Mon, Feb 17, 2014) For many of Buffalo's working class Poles, art was a luxury few could enjoy. After paying the rent, putting food on the table and sending the kids to parochial school, there was little money left for pretty paintings. Prints were popular but could still get expensive. To fill this desire for art many businesses began to give it away as a promotional item. Companies would give away pictures of mountains, birds, lakes, rivers and flowers to name a few.
In Polonia, religious scenes were some of the most popular. This week we'll take a look at one business which gave away these popular promotional prints, the Chmielewski Bakery in Buffalo's far East Side.
The Chmielewski Bakery at 1385 Broadway was one of Polonia's longest running bakeries.

SCHOOL 44!! Went there in the 60's!

My uncle, Frank Barsukiewicz, was a baker at Chmielewski's many, many years ago.
Hi Ray, I am the granddaughter of Leon & Mieczyslawa. Your uncle must have worked with my uncles and mom at the bakery. I remember spending weekends there with my twin brother and cousins driving the bakers crazy. We used to hide behind the flour stacks from them. I remember only found memories and it's nice to see there are still people here with their memories of the bakery.
