As a thinker, Mozi was distinctive in his insistence on methodology. He insisted that standards of judgment be established, and his criteria may be summarized as the threefold test and the fourfold standard. The threefold test reminded thinkers that the basis, verifiability, and applicability of any proposition must be analyzed; the fourfold standard reminded thinkers that one should always assess the benefits any proposition could bring to the country and the people. Benefits were defined as enrichment of the poor, increase of the population, removal of danger, and regulation of disorder. To Mozi the tests and standards were indispensable. Generalizing further, Mozi declared that, before anything could be said to be good, it was necessary first to demonstrate what it was good for.
The cornerstone of Mozi's system was undifferentiated love. If the world is in chaos, he said, it is owing to human selfishness and partiality, and the prescribed cure—in striking parallel with Christianity—is that "partiality should be replaced by universality," for, "when everyone regards the states and cities of others as he regards his own, no one will attack the others' state or seize the others' cities." The same principle was to be applied to the welfare of the family and of the individual. The peace of the world and the happiness of humanity lie in the practice of undifferentiated love. Many objections—its impracticability, its neglect of the special claims of one's parents—were raised against this new doctrine, but Mozi demonstrated that the principle of undifferentiated love had in it both utilitarian justification and divine sanction. He spoke of "undifferentiated love and mutual profit" in one breath, and he was convinced that this principle was both the way of man and the way of heaven (tian).
Mozi's stand on religion makes him exceptional among Chinese philosophers. His call to the people was for them to return to the faith of their fathers. He might be said to be a revivalist, a champion of religious orthodoxy with a personal god. To Mozi, there is heaven, heaven has a will, and this will of heaven is to be obeyed by human beings and accepted as the unifying standard of human thought and action: "What is the will of heaven that is to be obeyed? It is to love all the people in the world without distinction." Heaven not only "desires righteousness and abominates unrighteousness" but also metes out reward and punishment accordingly. The system of Mozi, with its gospel of undifferentiated love and the ascetic discipline as exemplified by his own life, soon after the master's death, was embodied in an organized church with a succession of Elder Masters and a considerable body of devotees. The religion prospered for several generations before completely disappearing.
The teachings of Mozi, however, continued to be held in high respect for several centuries. Down to the beginning of the 2nd century bce, writers referred to Confucianism and Mohism in one breath as the two leading schools of thought. But from that time, Mohism suddenly disappeared from the intellectual scene. Critics have generally agreed in admiring the high-minded character of Mozi himself but considered his teachings overdemanding and contrary to human nature. It was not until the encounter with Western learning in the 19th century that Mozi was rediscovered and his teachings reappraised.

Expedia launches $703m Wotif bid
PUBLISHED: 07 Jul 2014 09:59:00 | UPDATED: 08 Jul 2014 06:49:46PUBLISHED: 07 Jul 2014 PRINT EDITION: 08 Jul 2014Perry Williams and Madeleine Heffernan
Travel booking site Wotif.com says its $703 million takeover offer from US giant Expedia demonstrates the "eat or be eaten" nature of the global economy.
The $3.30-a-share bid delivered a shot in the arm to Wotif's share price, which had been languishing since its profit downgrade in December and was the fourth-worst performing ASX 200 stock in the year to June.
Wotif lost market share through the 2014 financial year as it poured money into a technology upgrade while global giants Expedia and Booking.com invested heavily in the rich and travel-hungry Australian market and more people did direct bookings with hotels.
Expedia reported more than 1 million booking transactions in the local market for the first time in 2013,Fairfax Media reported in March.
But Wotif remains the dominant online Australian accommodation agent and for several years has had more than $100 million in cash.
A combined entity would put together Wotif's domestic business – which is responsible for one in 10 room night bookings in Australia – with Expedia's international clout and $US4.8 billion in revenues for 2013. An Australian Competition and Consumer Commission spokeswoman said the corporate regulator was aware of the proposed takeover, and if it chose to conduct a public review it would make details available on its mergers register.
While two analysts described the Expedia bid as opportunistic,David Paradice of 2.3 per cent shareholder Paradice Investment Management said Expedia had offered a big premium and the offer was "probably not a bad idea" if co-founder Graeme Wood thought it was "good value". Wotif was founded in 2000 and listed on the Australian stock exchange in 2006. Questioned whether Wotif had learned any lessons that might apply to other Australian online companies, Wotif chief executive and managing director Scott Blume said: "When you're really good at what you do, you will attract takeover offers".
In the digital economy, Mr Blume told Fairfax Media, it's "eat or be eaten".
The deal is subject to an independent expert's report but has already received the support of shareholders representing 35.7 per cent of Wotif shares.
Mr Wood, with 19.7 per cent, and other Wotif directors who control 20.2 per cent of the company's shares have recommended the scheme in the absence of a superior proposal. The company's second-largest shareholder,Andrew Brice, who owns a 15.5 per cent stake, will also sell his shares to Expedia as part of the deal.
Mr Blume said Wotif had accepted the "compelling" bid after two strategic reviews and looking at options ranging from acquisitions, a share buyback, joint ventures and the status quo. He declined to name the potential acquirers or expected synergies from the takeover.
Questioned whether he was surprised the Wotif shares hadn't recovered since the December slump, Mr Blume said he was "always surprised by what the market is doing" and accepting the offer had come down to "shareholder value in the here and now".
Shareholders in Wotif include Japan's Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Holdings, Wilson HTM's fund management business Hyperion Asset Management and UQ Endowment Fund. The latter was bequeathed by Mr Wood, who dropped off the BRW rich list this year, in line with the Wotif share price decline. Mr Wood is an investor in the media via The Guardian's Australian website, as well as a prominent donor to green causes.
Mr Paradice said there were "a lot of uncertainties" affecting Wotif.com, and an offer from Expedia was "always on the cards" as it expanded into Australia and the Asia-Pacific. "The upside must be pretty high for them." Ord Minnett analyst Nicholas McGarrigle said the offer "looked reasonable", given his $3.11 target price on the stock and the market being saturated by offshore brands attracted by the high number of Australians travelling overseas as well as the broader Asia Pacific.
Roger Colman, analyst with CCZ, said Expedia had bought market share, reduced the competitive market for hoteliers and would likely get between $15 and $20 million in earnings before interest, taxation, depreciation and amortisaton within 12 months.
He said the next likely takeover target could be the smaller Webjet – a "brand that works" with intrinsic growth of 3 per cent – although air is not as profitable as travel and the industry far more concentrated.
The critical lesson from the Wotif sale, he said, was that "not all dotcoms have a great future". And Wotif, a national operator in travel where the boundaries are worldwide, Wotif had "maximised what they could still get."
Mr Colman added that there was potential for Expedia to bump up Wotif's commissions from hoteliers.

Special (lipid) delivery: The role of the ionizable lipid pKa in the in vivo delivery of siRNA by lipid nanoparticles has been studied with a large number of head group modifications to the lipids. A tight correlation between the lipid pKa value and silencing of the mouse FVII gene (FVII ED50) was found, with an optimal pKa range of 6.2–6.5 (see graph). The most potent cationic lipid from this study has ED50 levels around 0.005 mg kg−1 in mice and less than 0.03 mg kg−1 in non-human primates.

Tuva Solo
In 'Genghis Blues,' a team of San Franciscans visit the throat-singing capital of the world
By Richard von Busack
Kyzyl! who hasn't wanted to voyage to that mecca of throat singers, capital of Tuva? If you lived there, you'd be home now. The city of Kyzyl--pronounced "kazil"--in the heart of Central Asia, is the setting for much of the unique documentary Genghis Blues.
The Autonomous Republic of Tuva is a nation of 300,000 located outside Outer Mongolia. Among its cultural assets is a bloodless yet grisly method of slaughtering sheep (supposedly devised by Genghis Khan). More important is the great national art form: throat singing, a technique of vocalizing four different notes at once.
How to describe this unearthly song? As Asian cowboy music, only with the yodels emitted at several octaves lower than Roy Rogers? Like an operatic cicada? The guttural chuckle of Popeye set to music? Alto didgeridoo accented with toy whistles and a little bit of chainsaw motor thrown in for drone? In a world where you can't escape Madonna, a completely unusual sound is a precious resource. The Tuvans have been practicing theirs for centuries.
How Tuva became known outside the South Dakota-sized nation is the subject of Roko Belic's documentary. The story begins with Paul Pena, a local blues singer who has performed with John Lee Hooker, Muddy Waters and T-Bone Walker.
Pena, grieving after the death of his wife, heard a Radio Moscow program of Tuvan music. Fascinated, Pena backward-engineered the technique of throat singing, augmenting his knowledge by listening to CDs he purchased from San Francisco's Round World Records. Since there is no English-Tuvan dictionary, Pena translated the language from Tuvan into Russian and from Russian into English. In Braille. Like more than a few blues singers, Pena is blind.
In 1993, a master of Tuvan music named Kongar-ol Ondar came to California to perform live, record with Frank Zappa and the Kronos Quartet and march in the Rose Parade. Pena buttonholed Ondar after a concert, singing a Tuvan throat song to catch his attention. Pena performed so well that he was invited to Kyzyl for a once-every-three-years contest of throat singers.
The trip to a notoriously remote spot was a real hardship for him. Fortunately, Pena had friends who were micropatrologists (i.e., students of very small countries; thanks to cartoonist Eddie Campbell for coining this term). Pena was escorted by travelers calling themselves "Friends of Tuva."
In Tuva, the Westerners explored the country by untrustworthy car. It's a country of pasture land, bisected with rutted tracks, shadowed by snowy mountains, where the temperature extremes vary about 150 degrees during the course of the year. "Not a place for a middle-of-the-roader," noted one previous Western visitor, the great physicist Richard Feynman.
The trip to tuva makes for fascinating viewing, at first. Certainly, it's touching to see how Pena can be so gifted in music and so thwarted by his health and lack of sight. Actually, Pena's refusal to deal with his handicap in a glad, forgiving way is understandable, and his irascible qualities make him a blunt, lovable ambassador to this remote country.
Tuva is host to 100,000 Russians--a fact referred to elliptically by one Tuvan who observes, "There are people who have lived here for years who don't understand the Tuvan language." When the Russians annexed Tuva without a struggle, they banned the language (just as the U.S. did in Hawaii) while cutting off the country from the outside world. This should have buried the culture, but it thrives. Pena's performance of the kargyraa style, turning the bluesman's growl into the scary lowing of the accomplished throat singer, is remarkable-- and yet it's chilling to see that kinship between two very different forms of music separated by so much space and time.
Sober, dry-humored narration ("And then we attended the first of many sheep-slaughtering ceremonies held in our honor") helps mitigate the length of the drives through the countryside. Filmmaker Roko Belic and his co-writer brother Adrian said that they were stimulated to make films via a childhood spent watching public television. The Belics' mom played a brilliant trick on them when they were kids, snapping off the dial of the TV set with pliers and claiming that the television was broken and would only pick up PBS.
Except for Pena's salty language, Genghis Blues is perfect for PBS, even with the slower pacing of the travelogue spots, during which one would customarily go fetch a beer or yak with the roommates. But that's just the Westerner in me, uneasy with the Eastern sense of time.
In one's hot fury at the monstrosity of the recording industry, it's possible to forget that technological miracle that allows the song of a Central Asian horseman to be heard in a San Francisco flat. And Genghis Blues reminds you of that miracle. Surprising, well edited and with a one-of-a-kind subject matter, Genghis Blues leave not just Pena but the viewer with a lump in the throat .

3 A Story Within A Story Within A Story.Dirtfish | 08/05/2012 | See all Dirtfish's reviews (475)Top 100 Reviewer Top 100 DVD Reviewer Top 10 Books Reviewer Top 100 Toys Reviewer Stephen King's The Wind Through The Keyhole is his return to The Dark Tower series. It is his first Dark Tower novel in 7 years and chronologically this novel fits in between Wizard and Glass and Wolves of the Calla.The good news is that Roland Deschain and his gang of gunslingers are back but the bad news is that they are only back for a small amount of time in this novel.The Wind Through The Keyhole begins following the events in Wizard and Glass but very little happens before Roland begins narrating a tale from his youth.This tale of Roland's younger days is quite good until that story stops so that the younger Roland can tell a different story. The Wind Through The Keyhole is essentially a story within a story within a story.Basically two thirds of this book is a story told by the younger Roland which is almost unrelated to The Dark Tower. Its like Stephen King wrote a fantasy story and then added a few pages of Roland to link it to the Dark Tower series.The story itself is perfectly fine but it dominates this book and as a Dark Tower fan I was hoping for more involvement from Roland, Eddie, Susanah and Jake. Even a longer tale of young Roland would have done.
5 excellentbillyboy701 | 20/01/2013 | See all billyboy701's reviews (1)I loved it. As an ardent fan of the dark tower series I obviously had to buy it but I think it makes a great tale in itself too and adds yet another dimension to kings epic. There is always a risk of slight disappointment with these offshoots to a mainstream story - but certinly not in this case. I highly recommend it

- Do you ever feel thwarted by sticky work situations with no easy answers? Or stuck in unhealthy work dynamics with your colleagues?
- Ever sense that your lack of confidence is holding you back from getting the promotions and plum opportunities that others with less skill and experience are being offered?
The truth is: work often puts us in unfair situations, sometimes with leaders and colleagues we don't connect with or even particularly like. Working longer and harder doesn't solve this – it burns you out and kills your creativity.
What you need to do is focus on developing the essential high-leverage leadership and communication skills you need. Mastering the right skills not only sets you up for faster advancement, it opens up new perspectives and possibilities for you that might currently be in your "blindspot." (And yes we all have some blindspots.)
Your work matters and you matter.
Now is the not the time to "wait and see." It's time to move your big career dreams and goals to the forefront of your mind and formulate the roadmap and steps you actually need to get there.
- Picture yourself feeling confident and poised as you go into every meeting.
- Imagine knowing how to skillfully lead your team to great results, maneuver around the office politics, and have your choice of exciting new work projects and opportunities.
- Envision truly enjoying your time away from work instead of revisiting work scenarios over and over in your head? (No more burdening your friends and family with your high levels of stress!)
I work with motivated senior managers and leaders who are ready to have more impact and faster career growth in their organizations. I help you skyrocket your career by becoming a confident, influential leader who inspires others with your vision and effectively motivates your team to brilliant results.

Hangs a bit low Overall, this top is a keeper. The color is nice and as pictured, the details are cute, but it's so loose at the top. You may be able to fix it if you're good with alterations, otherwise you'll just have to wear a layering tank or buy a smaller size than you usually do. August 29, 2013
Cute tank Falls low so you will wear a tank under this tank.. cute though and nice color. April 29, 2013

Citizens United Topics
Democracy Now! reports on the controversial Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court on January 21, 2010. The ruling characterizes political spending as free speech and opened the floodgates for unlimited corporate spending on election campaigns. Critics argue that corporations should not be given the same First Amendment rights as people and that the ruling will greatly influence American politics and corrupt the election process.
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker has survived a historic recall election more than a year after launching a controversial effort to roll back the bargaining rights of the state's public workers.

After winning big in Florida, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney told CNN's Soledad O'Brien who he wants to represent. "You could choose where to focus, you could focus on the rich, that's not my focus. You could focus on the very poor, that's not my focus. My focus is on middle-income Americans."

How to make a full-screen application using Symbian C++
There are different methods for making full-screen applications.
Cover the system panes
This simple method is used when the application has a traditional view architecture where the view is not a full-screen view. To make the view full screen, call the CCoeControl::SetExtentToWholeScreen() method in the CMyView::ConstructL method before the ActivateL() call.
Remember that the underlying panes are still drawn and this will take time and processor power. It is better to hide them if you want to use the whole screen.
void CMyView::ConstructL(const TRect& aRect)
// Create a window for this application view
// Set the window size
// This view is a full-screen view.
// Activate the window, which makes it ready to be drawn
SetExtentToWholeScreen() is not recommended when the application is skinned (from S60 2nd Edition onwards; see figure). However, full-screen applications do not want the skin feature anyway, so this should not be a problem. (This needs to be updated. Some full-screen applications *do* want the skin feature. Any updates here for full-screen 'skinned' apps?)
The status pane and softkeys can be hidden. The status pane can be hidden from the AppUi with the command
#include <eikbtgpc.h>
#include <avkon.rsg>
Softkeys can be hidden from the AppUi with the Cba()->MakeVisible(EFalse); command, which activates the "null" softkeys. The default softkeys have no effect after that. To activate the default option menu and the Back key immediately after the keys are pressed, manually handle the key presses. This can be done in the HandleKeyEventL() method as follows:
TKeyResponse CMyAppUi::HandleKeyEventL(
const TKeyEvent& aKeyEvent,TEventCode aType)
// Left or right softkey pressed
if (aType==EEventKeyDown &&
(aKeyEvent.iScanCode == EStdKeyDevice0 ||
aKeyEvent.iScanCode == EStdKeyDevice1))
return EKeyWasNotConsumed;
After that, you can use whole screen when drawing.

Hutchings hails United show
07 Oct 2007 - 10:25:37
Wigan Athletic boss Chris Hutchings had few complaints after seeing his side torn apart 4-0 by Manchester United at Old Trafford.
The Latics held out until half-time, but were then pulled apart as the reigning Premier League champions ran riot.
Hutchings said: "We had a game plan which worked well in the first half.
"But as soon as they scored the first goal they upped the tempo and they could have scored a couple more.
"It's always difficult, but while it's 1-0 you have always got a chance. I'm disappointed that we lost our shape, but look at the players Manchester United have.
"When you try to stop one, they always have someone else. They opened us up too easily in the end.
"But they scored seven against Roma last season, which shows you what they are capable of.
"They have a great attacking threat from all areas and are a formidable outfit. That is why they are in the Champions League."

Charles Martel , Mayor of the Palace of Austrasia
b.est 0688 Herstal, Liège, Belgium
d.16 Oct 0741 Quierzy, Aisne, France
Family tree▼ (edit) m. est 685
Facts and Events
Charles Martel (c. 688 – 22 October 741) was a Frankish statesman and military leader who, as Duke and Prince of the Franks and Mayor of the Palace, was de facto ruler of Francia from 718 until his death. The illegitimate son of the Frankish statesman Pepin of Heristal and a noblewoman named Alpaida, Martel successfully asserted his claims to power as successor to his father as the power behind the throne in Frankish politics. Continuing and building on his father's work, he restored centralized government in Francia and began the series of military campaigns that re-established the Franks as the undisputed masters of all Gaul. In foreign wars, Martel subjugated Bavaria, Alemannia, and Frisia, vanquished the pagan Saxons, and halted the Islamic advance into Western Europe at the Battle of Tours. Martel is considered to be the founding figure of the European Middle Ages. Skilled as an administrator and warrior, he is often credited with a seminal role in the development of feudalism and knighthood. Martel was a great patron of Saint Boniface and made the first attempt at reconciliation between the Papacy and the Franks. The Pope wished him to become the defender of the Holy See and offered him the Roman consulship. Martel refused the offer, but it was a sign of the things to come. Although Martel never assumed the title of king, he divided Francia, like a king, between his sons Carloman and Pepin. The latter became the first of the Carolingians, the family of Charles Martel, to become king. Martel's grandson, Charlemagne, extended the Frankish realms to include much of the West, and became the first Emperor since the fall of Rome. Therefore, on the basis of his achievements, Martel is seen as laying the groundwork for the Carolingian Empire. In summing up the man, Gibbon has written, Martel was "the hero of the age," whereas Guerard describes him as being the "champion of the Cross against the Crescent."

Information technology (IT) project management directors are in charge of managing information technology projects for their organization. They oversee business processes and performance management projects, as well as relay IT concepts and technical ideas to non-technical personnel. They lead a group of IT professionals to reach all project goals in a timely manner, helping increase productivity while minimizing the use of company resources. IT project management directors must ensure maintenance and support services are provided as needed, as well as perform functions related to strategic planning, budgeting, and information security program development. In addition, they use a personal computer to keep project information up to date and communicate with team managers.

For many IT Project Management Directors, extensive experience does not lead to significantly more money. In this occupation, salaries for the relatively untested average out to $94K, but folks in the five-to-10 year range enjoy a much heftier median of $111K. After working for 10 to 20 years, IT Project Management Directors make a median salary of $137K. Individuals who report more than two decades of experience seem to make only slightly more than folks in the 10-to-20 year range; the more senior group sees median earnings in the comparatively modest ballpark of $138K.

US, UN poised for diplomatic assault on Syria's Assad
(Read article summary)The US is expected to call for Bashar al-Assad to step down and UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon will push for International Criminal Court action against the Syrian president.
Bassem Tellawi/AP
• A daily summary of global reports on security issues.
Syria's government is set to come under diplomatic assault today as the United Nations and United States prepare to take decisive actions against the regime. The two-pronged attack comes on the heels of comments from Turkey that make clear its overtures to its neighbor are over.
Associated Press sources say that today the White House will call on Bashar al-Assad, the Syrian president who has presided over a brutal five-month crackdown on protesters in his country, to leave office.
The US previously said that President Assad has lost his legitimacy as a leader. The call for him to leave office would have come sooner, but Turkey, Syria's neighbor, asked for time to try to persuade Assad to reform and the US wanted to act with a global consensus against the autocrat, the AP reports.
"It is not going to be any news if the United States says Assad needs to go," Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Tuesday. "OK, fine, what's next? If other people say it, if Turkey says it, if [Saudi] King Abdullah says it, there is no way the Assad regime can ignore it."

#Occupy Oakland (OccupyOakland.org)
10:42 pm in Uncategorized by Louis
I went to the Oakland General Assembly (GA) today at Mosswood Park (specifically, at the amphitheater there). It was the group's second meeting, the first for me. There were about 75-125 people there, probably 75 for the whole meeting. I'd say about 85% of the people were white and about 85% were young. The GA started at 5:00, lasted about 2 ¼ hours and then split up into 3 committees. I didn't stay for the committees. (At that point I was too cold and achy from sitting on the rained-upon amphitheater concrete.)
The meeting began with a brief recap of the first meeting (yesterday) and an explanation of process. At the first meeting it was agreed that the Oakland Occupation will start 4:00 on Monday, Oct. 10 at Frank Ogawa Plaza in downtown Oakland. The group had also agreed to rename the plaza to Oscar Grant Plaza in honor of the unarmed unresisting black man who was killed by a BART cop 2 years ago. Also, three committees had been set up to address things such as outreach, the media, propaganda, events, logistics, security, and food.
A couple of people spoke of other local Occupy activities. Someone from Berkeley said that Occupy Berkeley is about a week behind, schedule wise. Someone from San Francisco talked about last night, when the cops kicked everyone out and confiscated their belongings. The bright side, the person said, is that today the Federal Reserve (downtown SF) started erecting some sort of partitions or barriers, so that's an indication that the PTB are listening.
There was some general talk along the lines of assume the cops will have the occupation under surveillance and assume there could a cop at the GA itself. A few people declared they weren't cops :]
There was a core group of facilitators from yesterday's meeting but it was fairly clear that many or most of the people today were new. It was also clear that the facilitators had hoped today's GA would be much shorter than it turned out to be, it having gotten dark by the time the group broke up into the 3 committees. One of the biggest communications problem was being able to hear what people were saying. Read the rest of this entry →

Mediocre merging
Don't expect an easy time with this unintuitive program.
Our least favorite type of program is the kind that takes what should be a simple task and needlessly complicates it. Unfortunately, that seems to be the entire point of Merge. This program takes the process of merging two images--something that can be done easily in countless other programs--and makes it a confusing, frustrating, nonsensical mess.
The program's interface is both unintuitive and extremely unattractive. A dockable toolbar on the right side of the interface contains a series of unlabeled buttons and collapsible menus that represent the program's features. We had an easy enough time selecting the two images that we wanted to merge, but everything from there was a process of trial and error. The program comes with a rather thorough Help file and a quick-start tutorial, but the way these documents are written makes them hard to understand. It's unfortunate that the program is as user-unfriendly as it is, because it actually has a decent set of features; images can be scaled and flipped individually, and there are special effects and controls for brightness and contrast. But even very simple tasks are harder than they need to be. Think you're going to move an image by clicking on it and dragging it? Not so fast--you're actually going to have to right-click on it, draw a line to where you want it, and then let go. Such strange behaviors make Merge annoying to use, especially when there are plenty of alternatives out there that actually make sense.
Merge installs a desktop icon without asking but uninstalls cleanly. We recommend this program with reservations; there's nothing functionally wrong with it, but there's nothing about it that we particularly like.

Palmitoylation of cysteines 3 and 5 is necessary for targeting Lck to lipid rafts and is needed for Lck function in T cell receptor (TCR) signaling. Point mutations of cysteines 3 and 5 result in a form of Lck that fails to associate with the plasma membrane, which limits the usefulness of this genetic approach to address the role of palmitoylation in the distribution of Lck within the plasma membrane. To circumvent this problem, we sought to identify a palmitic acid analogue that would enable plasma membrane association of Lck, but not facilitate its localization within lipid rafts. Here we examined the effects of the heteroatom-substituted analogue of palmitic acid, 13-oxypalmitic acid (13-OP), on Lck subcellular localization and function. 13-OP is similar in chain length to palmitic acid, but possesses reduced hydrophobicity. We found that treatment of cells with 13-OP inhibited incorporation of omega-[(125)I]iodopalmitate into Lck. 13-OP inhibited localization of Lck to lipid rafts without altering its membrane localization. Consistent with the dissociation of Lck from rafts, treatment with 13-OP abolished Lck association with the GPI-anchored protein, CD48, but not the transmembrane glycoprotein CD4. Jurkat T cells treated with 13-OP showed marked reduction in tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase upon TCR stimulation. In conclusion, the less hydrophobic analogue of palmitate, 13-OP, alters the normal acylation of Lck that provides Lck with the necessary hydrophobicity and tight packing order required for inclusion in lipid rafts.

I don't know what else to say, they've been happening to me almost every game on Summoner's Rift, yet for some reason Dominion seems to be lag-free. I'm fairly certain that this isn't FPS lag, seeing as how the FPS doesn't drop when the spikes happen, and my rig is pretty decent. It's also worth mentioning that this doesn't occur in all my games, maybe 80% of them. Please do help, this is so frustrating.
Alright, now it's lagging on everything I play; not just Summoner's Rift. Can anyone please help? Also, i'm pretty sure it's just LoL, seeing as how other games work just fine for me. It should also be noted that my brother does not face the same lag that I do when playing LoL.

That made me think... would we take Bledsoe at the vet minimum if he was willing to be a backup for the last year of his career? Or would that just be too weird?
Ther is no way in hell Bledsow signs for the min. why would he has millions in the bank and hes the type that would just as well play with his kids which really isnt a bad thing hell retire if he doesnt get a starting gig
bring back drew....wait no bring back troy first he is a better 3rd qb now (Drew is still my 2nd favorite QB but he cant touch Troy)
bledsoe wanted to be cut from dallas b/c he said he didtn want to finish his career as a backup....he's a hell of a mentor though....he'll make an amazing qb coach....
lol oh yeah totally forgot about that....if they cant find a spot for troy on the WR depth chart, then troy can be QB...as we all saw in preseason lol soo versitale.....really reminds of you of those players back 50 years who played every position...lol
Don't know if your being serious or not, but Flutie has a real nice gig with ABC doing punditry for college games.
Hasnt Drew made another kid in Montana yet??? seriously folks Drew Bledsoe was done being a half way decent Qb the beggining of this yr..
On what are you basing your claim that he's a hell of a mentor? I don't think I'd pin Brady's or Romo's successes on Bledsoe. The reason Drew never lived up to his talent was because of poor decision making--not exactly a qualifying trait for an "amazing" QB coach.
I hope Vinny does come back. With the depth we have on this team...I don't think we can afford to hold three quarterbacks.
I agree. Unfortunately he always had the knack for throwing a critical interception late in the game.

Cesar's Ghost
Cesar, who was always good at symbols, saved his best for last: a simple pine box, fashioned by his brother's hands, carried unceremoniously through the Central Valley town he made famous. With some 35,000 people looking on.
Here was meaning enough, both for those who need it blunt and for those who like it subtle. No one--especially not the newspaper and TV reporters whose liberal sympathies had been one of his main assets--could fail to hear that pine box speak: Cesar Chavez's commitment to voluntary poverty extended even unto death. And perhaps a few among the crowd would get the deeper reference. Burial insurance had been Cesar's first organizing tool in building the National Farmworkers Association back in 1962. Many farmworkers, then and now, die so badly in debt that they can't afford to be buried. By joining up with Cesar and paying dues to the association, workers earned the right to take their final rest in a pine box, built by brother Richard.
The funeral march and picnic were near perfect. The friendly crowd was primarily Chicano, people who had driven a couple of hours up and over the Grapevine from Los Angeles to honor the man who was the authentic representative of their political coming of age in postwar America. Martin Luther King is the standard comparison, but Cesar Chavez was King and Jackie Robinson, too. Chicanos and Mexicans had played well in their own leagues-they built a lot of power in the railroad, mining and factory unions of the Southwest- but Cesar forced his way into the political big leagues, where Chicanos had always been excluded. And, like Robinson, he played on his own terms.
Not only Chicanos but also all manner of farmworker supporters marched at the funeral: liberal politicians, celebrities, Catholic priests, grape and lettuce boycotters. This was fitting too, as Chavez had always insisted that his greatest contribution to the farmworker movement was the consumer boycott. The boycott, he argued, ended the debilitating isolation of farmworkers that had doomed their earlier organizing. And so it was right that the boycotters marched at Cesar's funeral, and it was their buttons (the word "grapes" or "uvas" with a ghostbuster line through it) that everyone wore.
What the march lacked was farmworkers, at least in mass numbers. Several buses had come down from the Salinas Valley, and farmworkers from the immediate area were well represented, but as a group, farmworkers added little weight to the funeral. I saw no banners from U.F.W. locals, nor did I see a single button or sign proclaiming the idea of farmworker power. And this, too, was symbolically perfect, for at the time of Cesar Chavez's death, the U.F.W. was not primarily a farmworker organization. It was a fundraising operation, run out of a deserted tuberculosis sanitarium in the Tehachapi Mountains, far from the fields of famous Delano, staffed by members of Cesar's extended family and using as its political capital Cesar's legend and the warm memories of millions of aging boycotters.
It was my second funeral march for Cesar Chavez. The first had been two days earlier, back home in WatsonviIle, in the Pajaro Valley, four and a half hours by car from Delano. Throughout the 1970s, Watsonville, together with nearby Salinas, had been a center of U.F.W. strength. Back then, most of the major growers (the two valleys specialize in vegetable row crops) were signed up with either the U.F.W. or the Teamsters, and pushed by the militancy of several hundred Chavistas, the two unions had won increasingly better contracts. In the 1980s the entry-level hourly wage moved up over $7, and working conditions on U.F.W. crews significantly improved. But by the end of the decade that had all come apart. In Watsonville, the U.F.W. now has only a couple of apple contracts, covering no more than a few hundred workers. In Salinas, the Teamsters still have a contract with the giant Bud Antle/Dole, but for most workers, unions have been replaced by farm labor contractors, and average hourly wages have fallen to around $5.

When I finally get my truck later on, I've decided to spend the extra money and go with these instead of the cheap 2.5" bushing spacer route.
How hard are these to install? Seems it would be pretty easy since you don't need to compress the SAW spring? Do you still need to compress the factory springs to remove them?
What about relocating the sway, is that easy?
If anybody as a DIY link that would be great.

Battered Bullets: Does bullet setback matter? | The Daily Caller
Andrew Tuohy is a contributor and experimenter for LuckyGunner Labs and he tested bullet setback to over .35' setback. None of his bullets failed to feed or caused a KA-BOOM. .35'+ setback is a severe setback and it still did not cause a kaboom in a 40 S&W cartridge the most widely perceived cartridge to cause a kaboom considering its already a high pressure round without using +P ammo which this author used. He used speer gold dots.
I would like to see any conclusive tests that have show and/or proven that a bullet setback can cause a kaboom because in all of my research I haven't found any.

On July 4, 1776, the Second Continental Congress in Philadelphia officially adopted the edited and final version of the Declaration of Independence.
