Would it surprise you to know that the U.S. celebrates Cinco de Mayo more so than Mexico? Unless you call Puebla (the city where the Mexican army defeated the French on the fifth of May) home, the likelihood that you'll find a slew of designated Cinco de Mayo festivities in Mexico isn't high. But that's okay; we'll argue you don't need an excuse to party in paradise. And what's better than an ice-cold cerveza, some clear blue waters and some serious rest & relaxation to ring in this holiday?
Let's start the party in Playa del Carmen. This Mexican hot spot is known for its stellar beaches and even spicier nightlife. Our pick here is 5-star THE ROYAL Playa del Carmen. Not only will you be submersed in luxury during your stay here, but you're also mere steps from Playa del Carmen's famed Fifth Avenue. This area of Playa del Carmen is home to plenty of hip nightspots and trendy cafes, making it the ideal area to put on your dancing shoes and party all night long.
Don't worry; your days spent at THE ROYAL will be full of numerous all-inclusive dining options, sunbathing at both of the enormous freshwater swimming pools with built-in Jacuzzis, hanging out at the in-pool lounges and lively swim-up bar, and maybe even a tennis match on the rooftop tennis court.
Puerto Rico is the next party spot we'd recommend. With plenty of options for nightlife and even more things to do and places to see during the day, El San Juan Resort & Casino is an ideal home-away-from-home. Located in the city's fashionable Isla Verde district, stop in at the resorts' Club BRAVA nightclub or if you're feeling like rattling Lucky Lady, hit the slots at the 13,000-sq-ft El San Juan Casino.
When you're not busy perusing around the 15 acres of hotel grounds, including pools and beach, plan a day trip to Casa Bacardi, the famous rum factory in Old San Juan. You'll learn all about the history of sugar cane in the Caribbean, as well as the origins of rum making. And, of course, there are plenty of free samples to go around.
Ready to rock? We are too. That's why your next vacation party spot should be hosted at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Punta Cana. This Dominican Republic hot spot was recently named a 2013 AAA Four Diamond hotel and is the first all-inclusive Hard Rock Hotel in the world. This resort does everything big, offering 13 restaurants, seven bars and 15 pools. As the sun goes down, stop into the 45,000-sq-ft, Vegas-style casino or grab bottle service at Oro Nightclub, open daily from 11pm – 3am.
And if you're all about thinking ahead, make plans to attend the Enrique Iglesias Concert on July 23. Tickets can be purchased at the hotel. Your party options are endless here and with a hotel that embraces a rock 'n' roll attitude, we can't think of a better place to party hardy.
Another destination known for it's great nightlife and "party in paradise" attitude is Los Cabos. And why not live it up in Cabo at Pueblo Bonito Sunset Beach, All Suites Resort & Spa. This resort has five free-form swimming pools, five Jacuzzis, endless amounts of shady loungers and six swim-up bars, making your days spent poolside unforgettable. And when you're looking for a beach that's straight out of a magazine, catch the complimentary shuttle that takes you to Pueblo Bonito's sister resort on Medano Beach, the perfect setting for continuing the party vibe. When night falls, dress up for one of the resorts' themed dinners and have a nightcap at the ocean-view terrace of The Lobby Bar.
And since you'll be busy partying the day away, reward yourself at the Spa at Sunset Beach. This resort spa was named the "#1 Top Hotel Spa in Mexico" and among the "Top 10 Hotel Spas in Mexico, Central and South America" by Travel + Leisure. We recommend the Honey Sugar Glow, where an exclusive formula of crystallized honey hydrates, exfoliates and soothes the skin.
Our fifth and final recommendation for a good, quality place to party is on an island that's name says it all. Riu Palace Paradise Island is the Bahamas resort that rests on three miles of satiny sand and crystal clear waters making it a true island of paradise. If you love feeling like a VIP, plan your next trip to this 24-hour all-inclusive spot equipped with a long list of some of our favorite amenities.
Hang by the Romanesque pool and Jacuzzi or grab a bite at one of the five delicious dining options. And as nighttime approaches, head next door to the Atlantis Casino and end the night groovin' at one of four bars, including the Sports Bar open 24 hours a day. Live like the Bahamians do at this Paradise Island must-stay.
So as you might agree, partying can mean a little something different to everyone. Whether you're looking for iconic nightlife or simply want to waste the day away with a cold one in your hand, celebrate Cinco de Mayo the right way this year – in the Caribbean or Mexico!

Paul's Aggron
this wiki
| ||||||||||||||||||
Paul's Aggron was a powerful Pokémon that evolved from his Lairon after A Pyramiding Rage.
As a Lairon, it was used to battle Brandon's Regice, but was only able to use Iron Defense before being frozen by Ice Beam and finished with Zap Cannon.
During Paul's battle with Ash in the Lily of the Valley Conference it was revealed that Lairon had evolved. Aggron battled against Ash's Pikachu and gained the advantage before Pikachu was switched out and replaced by Infernape. Aggron used Double-Edge while Infernape countered with Flare Blitz. Due to its Rock Head ability, Aggron was immune to Double-Edge's recoil effect. However Infernape's Flare Blitz was been strong enough to burn Aggron and when Aggron attempted to use Flash Cannon, Infernape hit it with Mach Punch before it could launch the attack, knocking it unconscious.
In my opinion, Aggron is 1/3 of the weakest Pokemon with Paul's Nidoking and Hariyama.

Federal Drive Interviews -- Feb. 5, 2013
Tuesday - 2/5/2013, 8:18am EST
This is the Federal Drive show blog. Here you can listen to the interviews, find more information about the guests on the show each day and links to additional resources.
Today's guests:
director of research
Bloomberg Government
In the run-up to the presidential election, rule-making took the back seat in the administration. But now the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs is gearing up again. Bob Litan is the director of research at Bloomberg Government. They have a new study about what we can expect.
(BGov.com is a paid site and requires a subscription for access.)
NeoSystems Corp.
Federal employees may face furloughs and who-knows-what-else under the across-the-board budget cuts scheduled for March. Federal contractors are preparing for reduced revenues under sequestration too. NeoSystems provides business services to federal contractors, so it has a good view of how vendors are faring.
procurement attorney
Petrillo and Powell
A ruling in a 2012 Supreme Court case could come back to bite federal agencies facing budget cuts under sequestration. The court held that an agency is liable to a contractor for the entire amount of a contract, as long has it has sufficient appropriations to pay. If contract obligations come first, other programs could get short-changed.
director of information security issues
Government Accountability Office
The Energy Department says hackers have attacked agency computer servers. Employees and contractors may be at risk of identity theft. And just yesterday, government auditors slammed the FCC for security flaws in its new, supposedly more secure, computer networks. Taken together, the cases underscore some fears that agencies are not equipped to ward off sophisticated online assaults. Gregory Wilshusen is director of information security issues at the Government Accountability Office. He wrote the report on the FCC network.
vice president
Partnership for Public Service
The word "furlough" keeps popping up more and more as the threat of sequestration looms on the horizon. Here to prepare you for the difficult decisions you may find yourself having to make is John Palguta, vice president of the Partnership for Public Service.

Folate —Supplementation Possibly Helpful | Other Nutrients —Supplementation Possibly Helpful | St. John's Wort —Decreased Effectiveness of Drug | Indole-3-Carbinol —Possible Decreased Effectiveness of Drug | Dong Quai, St. John's Wort —Possible Harmful Interaction | Rosemary —Possible Harmful Interaction | Grapefruit Juice —Possible Harmful Interaction | Resveratrol —Possible Harmful Interaction | Milk Thistle —Possible Decreased Action of Drug | Androstenedione —Theoretical Harmful Interaction | Soy —Probably No Interaction
Oral contraceptives (OCs), or birth control pills, are some of the most effective contraceptive drugs.
Although the evidence is not consistent, women who are taking OCs may need extra folate. 1-5
Since folate deficiency is fairly common even among women who are not taking OCs, and it's not wise to be lacking in an essential nutrient, taking a folate supplement on general principle is probably a good idea.
Evidence from several studies suggests that OCs might interfere with the absorption or metabolism of magnesium , vitamin B 2 , vitamin C , and zinc . 6-12 With the exception of the trials involving magnesium, these studies used older, high-dose OCs. Modern, low-dose OCs may not affect nutrients to the same extent; still, you should probably make sure you get enough of these nutrients.
Reliable case reports, as well as controlled clinical trials, indicate that St. John's wort interferes with the effectiveness of oral contraceptives and may have led to unwanted pregnancies. 13,20,25
Indole-3-carbinol (I3C) is a substance found in broccoli that is thought to have cancer preventive effects. One of its mechanisms of action is thought to involve facilitating the inactivation of estrogen, as well as blocking its effects on cells. 21-24 The net result could be decreased effectiveness of oral contraceptives.
OCs have been reported to cause increased sensitivity to the sun, amplifying the risk of sunburn or skin rash. Because dong quai and St. John's wort may also cause this problem, taking these herbal supplements while taking OCs might add to this risk.
It may be a good idea to wear sunscreen or protective clothing during sun exposure if you take one of these herbs while using OCs.
Weak evidence hints that the herb rosemary may enhance the liver's ability to deactivate estrogen in the body. 26 This could potentially interfere with the activity of medications that contain estrogen.
Grapefruit juice slows the body's normal breakdown of several drugs, including estrogen, allowing it to build up to potentially excessive levels in the blood. 14 A recent study indicates this effect can last for 3 days or more following the last glass of juice. 15
If you take estrogen, the safest approach is to avoid grapefruit juice altogether.
The supplement resveratrol has a chemical structure similar to that of the synthetic estrogen diethylstilbestrol and produces estrogenic-like effects. 16 For this reason, it should not be combined with prescription estrogen products.
One report has noted that an ingredient of milk thistle, silibinin, can inhibit a bacterial enzyme called beta-glucuronidase. This enzyme helps oral contraceptives work. 17 Taking milk thistle could, therefore, reduce the effectiveness of OCs.
Androstenedione has become popular as a sports supplement, on the theory that it increases testosterone levels as well as sports performance. However, there is no evidence that it is effective. In addition, androstenedione appears more likely to elevate estrogen than testosterone levels. This could increase risks of developing estrogen-related diseases, including breast and uterine cancers. Women taking estrogen should not take androstenedione. 18
Fears have been expressed by some experts that soy or soy isoflavones might interfere with the action of oral contraceptives. However, one study of 36 women suggests that such concerns are groundless. 19

All Aggresor central vacuum attachment sets and power units are manufactured in North America by Electrolux Home Care. The Aggresor powerbrush was first released as the BEAM Solaire, later as the Eureka brand and then Honeywell Select and Elite, which are also owned by Electrolux. The most widely sold powerbrush platform from Electrolux the Select power nozzle is full 13.5" width cleaning with a heavy duty base and neck.
A geared belt provides a positive transfer of power from motor to brush for superior brushing and grooming action of carpeted floors. The Select powerbrush is auto adjusting and accommodates all levels and depths of carpeting with ease. The low profile 2.75" height Select powerbrush features a non-marring soft over mold bumper and rubber coated wheel set to protect furniture and baseboards along with allowing efficient use of the powerbrush on hard floors without scratching. The full power 120V brush motor provides aggressive agitation and the center mounted intake throat provides quick transfer of soil and debris from floor into the vacuum system.
The narrow geared belt design provides many times the strength and life span of a wide rubber belt and also allows for great edge cleaning on both sides. The Select powerbrush features belt-motor protection with a auto resting circuit that stops the motor if a large object, such as a sock or corner of an area rug, is pulled into the nozzle and binds the brush roller. An LED light on the rear of the nozzle signals normal operation with a green LED light and trouble with a red LED light.
Long life shock resistant LED lights are also used under the headlight lens to illuminate the cleaning path. The full motion wand connection is commercial quality in it's strength and features a large step-on wand release, the coveted quick disconnect feature that allows the use to switch floor tools without removing the wand.
The new wand is a design used in many of the better Electrolux built products and provides one of the most advanced connection system used in central vacuum attachment kits. Along with quick disconnection at both ends that allows push button attachment and removal the new wand is also telescopic with 5 positions and extends from its compact form - great for storage or cleaning nearby areas such as stairs - to the full length of two standard wands. The new Electrolux built wand used on the Aggresor attachment set is also fully integrated with all power wiring concealed within it's sleek design. No more floppy cords hanging off the back of the wand, nothing to snag on your furniture as you clean around or under tables, chairs or the kitchen cabinets. No cords, no plugs and no wires to deal with - ever.
Electrolux continued their new connection system through the powered nozzle, up the new integrated telescopic wand and into the new hose handle code named: SUMO. The new Aggresor hose grip includes features you expect; easy to hold, full 360° swivel connection to the hose body and a 3-position thumb operated switch that allows control of the power brush and power unit independently. The new design of the SUMO is a style that integrates these features with the new easy-to-connect wand system with a simple keyed type connection that lines up the hose, wand and tools each time without guessing which part is front or back. The handle also features a soft inlaid grip that help you to hold the handle with less effort while you vacuum. The full wrap gas-pump style grip with finger contours means you exert less effort using the SUMO grip system. The large buttons for tool release and wand extension allow everyone, even someone with less hand strength easily manipulate the Aggresor CV attachment set.
The Aggresor hose-body is a 30 foot in length, 1-3/8" diameter premium crush proof hose stock manufactured by the worlds largest OEM vacuum hose manufacturer for Electrolux. The crush proof hose is lightweight, strong, durable and still exceptionally flexible. Combining strength and flexibility, two qualities often at odd's with each other, is achieved through chemistry and blending of proprietary formulas of plastic and unique manufacturing methods that result in a new electric hose design with qualities that were not possible just a few years ago. The wall end of the hose that plugs into your vacuums wall inlet is available in both Universal or Direct connection type to fit most every inlet used in central vacuums today. Select your hose end configuration at order using the option selector at the top of this page (just above the add-to-cart button).
A common option for a CVS hose wall-end is the Universal Connect configuration which features an 8 foot power cord attached to the wall end that is connected to an standard electrical outlet and provides power down the hose for the electric power brush. The other powered hose style available is the Direct Connect hose end which has two forward facing prongs (or pins..) that plug directly into the inlet, which is powered. If your wall inlets have high voltage built-in, also called a "Super-Valve" or "Powered Inlet", you should use the Direct Connect hose option. If you have standard inlets you should choose a Universal Connect hose option. More information about hoses and inlets is available in the article Central Vacuum Hoses & Inlets Explained - just check the related articles tab above for a link to the article. The Aggresor above floor attachment set includes the most commonly used tools that can be connected to the end of the hose grip or at the end of the wand for extended reach cleaning. The tool set is a compact design the are easy to carry with you so they are ready to use when you need them and easy to store thanks to their smaller size. The compact crevice tool is used to focus the airflow in a flat point to reach tight spots or corners.
The upholstery nozzle will spread the suction out over the bottom of the tool so airflow can be applied to a larger area without sealing off against the object being cleaned. The Upholstery Nozzle also has thread collectors on the bottom that will lift lint and hair from upholstery or carpeted surfaces. The dusting tool uses a soft natural fill bristle that works with the airflow to release dust from the surface and pull it to the collection bin.
A round tool adapter is also included that allows you to use standard 1.25" round connection cleaning tools with the Honeywell attachment set including aftermarket application specific tools like ceiling fan cleaners, dry mop nozzles and mini blind tools.
Quick hard floor cleaning can be accomplished using the powerbrush with the roller brush switched off. Detailed or large area hard floor cleaning is made easier with the 14" wide natural fill hard floor brush. The full width hard floor brush features a notched row of bristle front and back that allows dirt and debris to enter the airflow area under the tool. The wide nozzle is supported with two outboard wheels and the full swivel neck lets you turn the nozzle while cleaning, driving the floor tool around and under objects and furniture on the floor. Perfect for hard floor covers of all types including wood, stone or synthetic.
Compatibility The Aggresor Select attachment sets are universally compatible with most central vacuum systems and inlets in use today. The 1.5" wall inlet is the predominate style in use for the last 30+ years in US homes. This includes systems from BEAM, Aggresor, Hoover, Airvac (M&S Systems), Vacumaid (Astro-Vac, Valet, Vacumaid, Imperium), Filtex, Fasco, Honeywell, Electrolux and many others. Some brands, particularly older installations, use proprietary inlet sizes. The most often installed proprietary inlet types were Kenmore & Budd system that use a 1.25" inlet, Vacuflo inlets with a 4-bolt mount system and older Nutone square style inlets (model 360) installed prior to 1995. Adapters are available for many of these proprietary inlet styles, just call Vacdepot for more information.

According to Sponichi Annex, the man was recently playing the Yu-Gi-Oh! card battle game against an 11 year-old boy in a card shop. After the man won twice, the sixth grader got up to leave.
Apparently, the man asked, "You're running away?", causing the boy to fling the cards off the table. Then, the 29 year-old then allegedly grabbed the kid by his collar. The boy suffered light scratches to his face during the altercation, and the adult was soon crowned "The King of Jerks".
The 29 year-old was then arrested for attacking the kid, teaching us all an important lesson about the hardnosed world of Yu-Gi-Oh!.

chitterlings, a food made of fried pig intestines(often regarded as characteristically eaten by black people and in the southern United States)
Looks like someone has been cooking a pot of chitlins.

Yeah yeah, they were the poor people's food. They're still cheap and still tasty though, especially in plain soup.
Chitlins require little money yet give much satisfaction.

The purpose of screening is early diagnosis and treatment. Screening tests are usually administered to people without current symptoms, but who may be at high risk for certain diseases or conditions. Screening for follows someone in renal failure to screen for evidence that they are getting close to ESRD.
Blood tests— to see if your kidneys are working properly. If they are not filtering the blood properly, the blood will contain excess amounts of creatinine and urea. Creatinine is a byproduct of muscle function. Urea is a waste product of protein metabolism.
Urine tests— to see if the kidneys are working properly. If they are not working properly, urine will contain protein. You may be asked to collect urine in a special container over a 24-hour period. This test will also show if your kidneys are clearing creatinine at a normal rate. The amount of urine produced during this test is also important. If your kidneys are failing, your urine output may be low or even completely absent. If you have diabetes, your doctor will likely check your urine every year for small amounts of protein.
The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is a measurement of how well the kidneys are processing wastes. Your doctor can calculate the GFR based on your:
- Sex
- Age
- Body size
- Blood creatinine level
The National Kidney Foundation provides screening for people with high blood pressure , diabetes , or a close relative with one of these conditions or with chronic renal failure.

17 May - International Day against Homophobia
For equality in diversity
The principle of equality and non-discrimination is a fundamental element in the protection of human rights. It is guaranteed by the European Convention on Human Rights (article 14) and was reinforced by Protocol No.12 to the Convention, which in a general manner, provides that no-one shall be discriminated against on any ground by any public authority.
Homophobic acts which have occurred in several states unhappily point to systematic violation of the fundamental rights of lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transsexuals (LGBTs). These occurrences have also shown that in many cases such injustice is condoned and sometimes even actively supported by the very authorities whose strict duty it is to protect their citizens against all discrimination.
The Committee of Ministers, the Parliamentary Assembly and the Congress of Local and Regional Authorities have issued several recommendations and resolutions calling upon governments and local authorities to take the requisite measures to combat incitement to homophobia.
2013 edition
On the occasion of the International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia (IDAHO) Secretary General Jagland called on Member States to fight discrimination on grounds of sexual orientation and gender identity.
"Hate crime motivated by sexual orientation or gender identity is a violation of basic human rights. Europeans must safeguard the right to freedom of expression and of peaceful assembly. Some member states still lack laws to explicitly or implicitly prohibit discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation and gender identity. I encourage them to work with the Council of Europe to make progress so that Lesbian Gay Bisexual and Transgender persons can fully enjoy their human rights," Secretary General Jagland said. (more...)
Commissioner for Human Rights on human rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender persons (LGBT)
The Commissioner regularly raises the LGBT topic with authorities in member states, and expresses his concerns in country monitoring reports and specific thematic publications, such as the Issue Paper on Human Rights and Gender Identity.
Statistics from the Council of Europe's Human Rights Commissioner in 2011 showed that what looks like progress on the surface often masks the fact that homosexuality is still hated by over 80% of people in some European countries, and that nine of the Council of Europe member states have no anti-discrimination legislation pertaining to gay rights at all. Whilst same sex marriages are allowed in seven countries, and 13 others accept some form of civil partnership, others not only prevent same sex marriage but do not allow gay people planning to marry or conduct a civil partnership abroad access to the necessary paperwork.
Council of Europe to advance human rights for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender persons
The Secretary General Thorbjørn Jagland welcomed the decision of the Committee of Ministers on 31 March 2010 to adopt a recommendation to member states on measures to combat discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity. ''The recommendation is an expression of the Council of Europe's commitment to the equality for all and respect for the dignity of all,'' he declared. (more ...)
The Parliamentary Assembly on 29 April 2010 also called on European States to guarantee ''legal recognition of same-sex partnerships only when national legislation envisages such recognition'' and provide for the possibility of ''joint parental responsibility'' for each partner's children ''bearing in mind the interests of children.'' (more...)
On 17 October 2012, the Current Affairs Committee of the Council of Europe's Congress of Local and Regional Authorities decided to prepare a report on LGBT persons' rights. Ms Yoomi Renström (Sweden) will be the rapporteur. This document will deal with the role of local and regional authorities in insuring respect of LGBT people's rights.
Additionally, in order to help member states in their efforts to combat discrimination on grounds of sexual orientation and gender identity, the project "Combating discrimination on grounds of sexual orientation and gender identity (LGBT Project)" was launched in September 2011.
Case law of the Court
Whilst for many LGBT people in Europe life has become easier and society more tolerant, they face still many other obstacles. The European Court of Human Rights has been asked to judge cases involving the banning of gay pride parades and discrimination in granting social rights, with a number of applications pending on the laws which criminalise "homosexual propaganda".

Doiron prepares for flooding with new event
I was chatting with my buddy, Phillip Doiron, this morning via text.
Phillip is the CEO if the Hodding Carter Memorial YMCA in Greenville, and we have been friends for several years dating to my tenure as editor of the Delta Democrat Times.
••• Learn more about the Cotton Classic 10K in Greenville…
Anyway, I was texting him this morning to give him a hard time about one of his biggest events of the year, the Cotton Classic 10K road race.
I missed last year's event and have felt bad about it. So, this year is a must. This Saturday is a must.
But word from MDOT is that U.S. 61 is going to be closed due to flooding as are parts of U.S. 49W, the two main routes to Greenville from Jackson.
I asked him if I am going to be able to make it Friday night. After a couple of serious comments back and forth, Phillip suggested I might need to bring a swim suit with me for the event.
Sure, I said. Maybe we can make it a biathlon.
"Amen brother," Phillip replied.
Amen, indeed.

A playful Green Day stormed their way through a near three hour long show at Wembley Stadium on June 19, and described it as "the biggest show of our f--ing lives" during the set.
Having played Wembley Arena last autumn, the graduation to the stadium, as part of an eighteen date European tour, was a triumphant one; the punk stalwarts romped through a mammoth 34-song set that spanned their entire career, from breakthrough hit 'Basketcase' to more recent material from 2004's critically acclaimed 'American Idiot' and last year's '21st Century Breakdown,' the NME reported.

Major Section: EVENTS
Examples: (encapsulate (((an-element *) => *)); The list of signatures above could also be written ; ((an-element (lst) t))
(local (defun an-element (lst) (if (consp lst) (car lst) nil))) (local (defthm member-equal-car (implies (and lst (true-listp lst)) (member-equal (car lst) lst)))) (defthm thm1 (implies (null lst) (null (an-element lst)))) (defthm thm2 (implies (and (true-listp lst) (not (null lst))) (member-equal (an-element lst) lst))))
(encapsulate ()
(local (defthm hack (implies (and (syntaxp (quotep x)) (syntaxp (quotep y))) (equal (+ x y z) (+ (+ x y) z)))))
(defthm nthcdr-add1-conditional (implies (not (zp (1+ n))) (equal (nthcdr (1+ n) x) (nthcdr n (cdr x))))))
General Form: (encapsulate (signature ... signature) ev1 ... evn)
where each signature
is a well-formed signature (see signature), each
describes a different function symbol, and each evi
is an
embedded event form (See embedded-event-form). There must be at least one
. The evi
inside local
special forms are called ``local''
events below. Events that are not local
are sometimes said
to be ``exported'' by the encapsulation. We make the further restriction
that no defaxiom
event may be introduced in the scope of an
(not even by encapsulate
or include-book
that are among the evi
). Furthermore, no non-local
event is permitted in the scope of any encapsulate
with a non-empty list of signatures.
To be well-formed, an encapsulate
event must have the properties that
each event in the body (including the local
ones) can be successfully
executed in sequence and that in the resulting theory, each function
mentioned among the signatures was introduced via a local
and has the signature listed. (A utility is provided to assist in
debugging failures of such execution; see redo-flat.) In addition, the body
may contain no ``local incompatibilities'' which, roughly stated, means that
the events that are not local
must not syntactically require
symbols defined by local
, except for the functions listed
in the signatures. See local-incompatibility. Finally, no
recursive definition in the body may involve in its suggested
induction scheme any function symbol listed among the signatures.
See subversive-recursions.
The result of an encapsulate
event is an extension of the logic
in which, roughly speaking, the functions listed in the
signatures are constrained to have the signatures listed
and to satisfy the non-local
theorems proved about them. In
fact, other functions introduced in the encapsulate
event may be
considered to have ``constraints'' as well. (See constraint
for details, which are only relevant to functional instantiation.)
Since the constraints were all theorems in the ``ephemeral'' or
``local'' theory, we are assured that the extension produced by
is sound. In essence, the local
definitions of
the constrained functions are just ``witness functions'' that
establish the consistency of the constraints. Because those
definitions are local
, they are not present in the theory
produced by encapsulation. Encapsulate
also exports all rules
generated by its non-local
events, but rules generated by
events are not exported.
The default-defun-mode for the first event in an encapsulation is
the default defun-mode ``outside'' the encapsulation. But since
events changing the defun-mode are permitted within the body of an
, the default defun-mode may be changed. However,
defun-mode changes occurring within the body of the encapsulate
are not exported. In particular, the acl2-defaults-table
an encapsulate
is always the same as it was before the
, even though the encapsulate
body might contain
defun-mode changing events, :
and :
See defun-mode. More generally, after execution of an
event, the value of acl2-defaults-table
restored to what it was immediately before that event was executed.
See acl2-defaults-table.
Theorems about the constrained function symbols may then be proved
-- theorems whose proofs necessarily employ only the constraints.
Thus, those theorems may be later functionally instantiated, as with
the :functional-instance
lemma instance
(see lemma-instance), to derive analogous theorems about
different functions, provided the constraints (see constraint)
can be proved about the new functions.
Observe that if the signatures list is empty, encapsulate
may still
be useful for deriving theorems to be exported whose proofs require
lemmas you prefer to hide (i.e., made local
The order of the events in the vicinity of an encapsulate
confusing. We discuss it in some detail here because when logical
names are being used with theory functions to compute sets of rules,
it is sometimes important to know the order in which events were
executed. (See logical-name and see theory-functions.)
What, for example, is the set of function names extant in the middle
of an encapsulation?
If the most recent event is previous
and then you execute an
constraining an-element
with two non-local
events in its
body, thm1
and thm2
, then the order of the events after the
encapsulation is (reading chronologically forward): previous
, thm1
, an-element
(the encapsulate
itself). Actually, between
and thm1
certain extensions were made to the world by the
superior encapsulate
, to permit an-element
to be used as a function
symbol in thm1
Finally, we note that an encapsulate
event is redundant if and
only if a syntactically identical encapsulate
has already been
executed under the same default-defun-mode
See redundant-events.

Well, this is just a observation, but, TOR seems to be the big boys in the Fantasy field. They seem to have a huge selection of Fantasy Authors, and we're talking big ones.. Jordan, Modesitt, Goodkind, Haydon, etc.. BUT, you know, I tend to find most TOR books to be rather blech. I dont like Goodkind, Haydon's book I didnt really enjoy (See Review).. But, Bantam Spectra..Now, they have some wonderful series going.. Robin Hobb, and George R. R. Martin.. John Marco, etc.. Do you folks watch this at all? I am noticing more publishers myself these days. And, who is the big boy of the Fantasy writers? I mean, we have Jordan, but, to be honest, I think he is losing Fan support fast.. Goodkind, who, while I dont like, seems rather large, but, even Fans seeem to find his stories to similiar to each preceeding novel? Any comments? I felt like posting something. =)
Personally I think that there are two publishers that are the big, big ones for fantasy. Tor, as you mentioned, and Del Rey. Sure, Del Rey is an imprint of Ballantine, but it is one of the bigger publishers of fantasy. There are also all the smaller ones, but who are still considerable: DAW, Avon, the imprint that Harper Collins has, Bantam Spectra like you again mentioned, and many many more. As to the "big boy" of fantasy, I don't really know. sure, all the ones who would be considered are the ones that everyone knows, such as : -Tolkien -Jordan -Eddings -Brooks -Goodkind -McCaffery(I know I spelled it wrong) and doubtless countless others. I think that many would probably consider it to be Tolkien, because he did the LotR series back in the sixties, but I don't really think that he would be my choice. I wonder what everyone's would be?
Great topic, Keyoke, I think there's some interesting discussion here. At least, for the past few years, I've for some reason, been paying alot of attention to the publishing/imprint houses. As far as the publishers go, as with almost everything, its very cyclic. Ten to five years ago, Bantam-Spectre was the big boy publisher. Practically every author I read was signed with B-Spectre. Then a few authors left because they wanted to do different style stories that Bantam didn't want to do, and Bantam went with the 'flat-fee' for their Star Wars line, and some authors left fearing that the flat-fee might become standard for all Bantam books. Suddenly, *poof* Bantam and its unbeatable stable was gone. There was a period when I didn't buy any books from Bantam. During Bantam's hey-dey, Tor made a powerplay, with the WoT phenomenon and Jordan. Based on its success, Tor pretty much paid no attention to what was going on in the fantasy field and simply went after writers who could crank out 'fat-fantasy' WoT like novels, (thus the rise of Goodkind, who I love, Dave Farland (aka Dave Wolverton), etc)). For a while they were very successful, and were (probably still are) the kings of fat-fantasy publishing. But like you pointed out, Jordan's loosing his fans (due to a couple of sub-par performances); and lots of people aren't as satisfied with alot of the current fat-fantasy (due mainly to what I think are Tor's poor decision to flood the market with it...I simply don't have the money to shell out $30 bucks a pop for each new fat fantasy novel they throw out). Meanwhile, while B-Spectre was falling like a rock, Del-Rey's stock was rising as if it were propelled to the heavens by rocket power. Basically, Del-Rey went for middle-of-the-road fantasy, with a good mix of authors (some talent that they got on their own, and some were refugees from bantam). Yet, for some reason now, I get the feeling that Del-Rey peaked maybe a year or two ago. I think they are getting ready to plummet. Bantam-Spectre, or what's left of it, looks set to make a power-play based on a small stable. But hey, Martin and Hobb are hot commodities (Hobb is probably my fav author right now, I'm certainly counting the days till fall when I can get her new book). So, to sum it up, I see it as the following: Tor--in a little trouble, needs help in the way of an awesome showing out of Jordan's WoT #9. But even with that, I think Tor needs to try to expand a bit from the WoT formulae and break something new on us. I currently rate them as tied for the 2 spot. Bantam Spectre-stream-lined now, needs to get 2 more 'superstar' author/series and they'd take the top spot. Currently tied with Tor. Del-Rey. King of the Hill right now, due to their huge stable of authors. But a huge bulls-eye has been drawn on their chest. Things to note: Del-Rey really seems to be zoning in on sci-fi, but I think if you dropped their SW line, they might be in a bit of trouble. If DR is going to stay on top they need to push the younger, fresher authors (namely Gregory Keyes). Daw, Avon, Aspect, ect. are pretty much all based around one or two authors, (though they are power-houses...Tad Williams, Melianie Rawn (hopefully she can get well, and get back into writing soon), Ray Feist, etc). The big wild-card to the future will be, and always has been Baen. Right now, Baen's got the sci-fi field (in my book), if they were ever to focus on fantasy, they could change the genre and industry. Its funny, everyone always considers Baen as not one of the big-guys; but I think they've been the most influential publisher in the industry. Now, who are the big-boys of fantasy. That's real tough to say. My list now includes those who are on the rise, and those who are on the decline: Jordan Goodkind Brooks Hobb Martin If I had to say one right now, I'd say the current king is Martin. He seems to be the one who is selling well, like by almost everyone, and has the most people gnashing their teeth waiting for his next one.
Great Topic, I think about this one occasionally myself. TOR is #1 right now interms of Fat Fantasy. But each publisher has their own little niche as I see it; TOR BIG Fantasy series (Jordan, Modesitt). Live by Jordan, die by Jordan. I am one of the Jordan fans who is slowly becoming disenchanted with WOT. Elizabeth Haydon is pretty good, and a new author. Might start Wizard's First Rule, from what I have read about you either love it or hate it. I think the best thing that TOR does is the ORB reprint series (Gene Wolfe; Richard Matheson) DelRey-they seem to publish across the board and seem to have some of the classics of Fantasy; McCaffrey, Donaldson, Gemmel, Eddings, etc-probably why they have just reissed LOTR under the DelRey imprint rather than Ballantine imprint (VERY SMART MOVE WITH THE MOVIES COMING OUT NEXT YEAR). DelRey also started their IMPACT imprint, with the classic Lord Dunsany. Not sure if DelRey still has the Del Rey Discovery line active. BantamSpectra-They have Hobb and Martin, what else needs to be said, plus new voices such as John Marco, who is getting a lot of praise across the net (sffworld.com, sfsite.com to name two), and Mark Anthony who is pretty good in his own right. BantamSpectra also has a decent backlist of Feist and LeGuin's EarthSea. HarperCollins which just bought out Avon, merged the EOS imprint with HarperPrism-they may be the publisher to watch, combining two groups of established authors (Feist, Duncan, Wurts, McDevitt.) WarnerAspect-JV Jones is pretty good, just from reading "A Cavern of Black Ice." This imprint seems to be growing as well. The three Penguin SF/F Imprints: Daw, Roc and Ace DAW-I only have read Tad Williams from DAW, but Daw seems to be broad on a smaller scale than DelRey-mostly fantasy. Sean Russell, while I have not read him, seems to be regarded fairly well. ROC-I have only read GG Kay from them, but he is pretty damn good ACE-mostly sf, some fantasy from what I have seen Baen-never ready any books from them, to me seems mostly military SF, which is not my glass of beer. Just my observations, what the hell do I know?!?! Then again, I could be wrong.

Customer Reviews
- Very functional and comfortable strap review by Kendall Helmstetter Gelner
Functionality Construction Quality Comfort Durability Value
The Op-Tech strap is just the right size, large enough that it can distribute the weight of the tripod well across your shoulder but small and light enough that it can be crammed into a jacket pocket when not in use. A very good hiking and traveling strap.
Note that to use the strap you'll need some kind of hook on one end of your tripod, the other end clamps around the legs with a good quick-release adaptor. (posted on 9/15/12)
What is the largest diameter each loop connection can support.
The largest diameter the loop will adjust to is about 5.8" inches (18.5" in circumference).

EiE Workshops
On Thursday, May 8, 2014, second grade students at Castle Creek Elementary participated in an engineering design challenge with the goal of creating a sail car that could travel the farthest distance. The workshop was the next installment in the "Engineering Our Future" initiative sponsored by Lockheed Martin in partnership with Orlando Science Center.
The program utilizes the nationally recognized curriculum "Engineering is Elementary" and combines it with teacher support in the classroom as well as in-classroom student workshops provided by Orlando Science Center. The Science Center recently earned their endorsement to become an official EiE collaborator through Museum of Science, Boston.
Here, the second grade team is working on the unit "Catching the Wind: Designing Windmills." It spans eight weeks and will culminate with the students applying the knowledge they have learned over the last several weeks to compete in a final design challenge to create a windmill.

Expanding possibilities for people with vision loss
Dear Senator / Representative: No child's potential should be limited merely because he or she is visually impaired. We know how to reach and educate these children. The problem is simply that schools and teachers lack the resources and expertise to do so. You can help to change that by quickly passing the Anne Sullivan Macy Act. As a supporter of the American Foundation for the Blind, I urge you to support this bill and work for its swift passage.
