It be nice to see some Opensolaris tests thrown in to even it out. After all that is the platform it is developed on. it mighten show much of a difference but if there is an improvement then part of issue could be with FreeBSD implementation.
Michael is certainly right about the target audience here. Most people will be using small systems. It would, however, to get a good feature comparison.
I have a seven drive system, but it's media and not performance constrained.
The code path of Btrfs (similar to ZFS in this way, I believe) made me think that it was only going to be really useful on VERY large setups. I still would love to see cpu numbers, but I am actually a bit hopeful that this may be a truly scalable fs.
From : http://www.h-online.com/open/news/it...l-1016851.html
Currently, ZFS under Linux can only be used as a userspace file system via FUSE (zfs-fuse), which impacts performance. This is due to licensing incompatibilities between the Linux kernel (GPL) and ZFS (CDDL):
btrfs is impressive. Chris judiciously selected his feature-set for technical reasons, as opposed silly marketing reasons. I mean, come on, a 128 bit filesystem? What was Sun thinking? That's a bullet point for glossies aimed at managers who don't understand exponents. (Disk storage space has been increasing at a uniform rate of about a bit every 1.5 years for the 23 years that I've been watching. And Linus would probably have a brain hemorrhage if presented with a set of patches for a 128 bit filesystem.) Pragmatic design decisions have allowed btrfs development to progress with remarkable agility.
So could someone post a quick and unbiased comparison of btrfs vs. zfs in terms of features?
ZFS means a LOT to Solaris users. Because before ZFS, logical volume management and SW RAID meant Solstice Disksuitie (aka Solaris Volume Manager). And while it worked "ok", it was a real mess and had lots of frustrating limitations.
ZFS looks REALLY interesting if you DO NOT look at LVM and other *ix OS's solutions. So for a Solaris person who knows the pains of SVM, ZFS looks absolutely grand!
With regards to "feature" differences, I'd recommend just looking at the features from both sites. From my own experience, ZFS users tend to be "blind" and unwilling to look at other technologies... they've decided that they're #1. With regards to Linux distributions, I'd say greater than 50% of the so called "top" engineers I've met from Sun haven't used Linux since Red Hat 7.2.
Btrfs is an IMPORTANT filesystem... like ZFS. Btrfs means enterprise like features, like ZFS. However, unlike ZFS, you will be able to use it with a Linux distribution (arguably, you could port it to your own Linux today... you just can't distribute that custom edition).
So... ZFS, IMHO, doesn't bring too much to the table... UNLESS you're a Sun SVM + UFS user... then it's fantastic! I'm serious, UFS and SVM are ugly and have been very, very, very, very, very, very problematic in the past. ZFS came late for Sun and a bit late for the *ix world and N/A when it comes to a Linux distribution.
I'm not saying that ZFS isn't ok... it is ok. But the future belongs to things like btrfs... NOT ZFS.
One other variable.... ZFS belongs to Oracle. Btrfs development is primarily done by Oracle.
So at the end of the day... this one may be settled by politics and the fact that Oracle HATES Linux (now).

Order Early

I got this as a gift for a 65th birthday. I will admit that I ordered it a bit late - they really are not kidding about the 3 weeks. In my case though, it took 6 weeks. It was difficult to communicate with the vendor that was used for the framing, so NG could not tell me what was going on beyond confirming the vendor has the order, and I was never given given the information to contact them myself. Also, somewhere along the line, the vendor did not get or give the complete shipping address, so there was more waiting while that was corrected. In the end though, I understand that the magazine and frame look amazing, and to the recipient, it was worth the wait. Just make sure you give yourself plenty of time for it to arrive.

Astros' Lyles to square off with veteran lefty Saunders
Houston's 22-year-old starter near career high in innings
With just a few weeks left in the season, Astros manager Bo Porter is monitoring the innings of his team's young starting pitchers.
That includes 22-year-old right-hander Jordan Lyles, who is the longest-tenured starter on the Astros' pitching staff. He'll be on the mound Tuesday against the Mariners at Safeco Field for his 23rd Major League start of the season.
"As we move forward, these guys' next starts, we'll make some decisions on some of these guys," Porter said.
The Astros have been restricting the workload of their young starters by using a six-man rotation for the past month. However, Lyles has thrown a combined 153 innings this year (23 2/3 at Triple-A and 129 1/3 in the Majors) and could pass his career high of 158 2/3 in his start Tuesday.
He didn't factor into the decision on Wednesday against the Twins, allowing three runs on four hits in 6 1/3 innings.
Just like the Astros, the Mariners are also thinking ahead during the last few weeks of the season. However, manager Eric Wedge is making sure his club keeps playing hard even though it is out of playoff contention.
"I think you're going to look at your body of work as a whole, but everybody wants to finish strong. First and foremost with the club, people remember how you finished vs. how you start more times than not, so you want to finish strong," Wedge said. "Once you get into the offseason, once you get past that first couple weeks, you start looking at your entire season vs. just how you finished, but you should learn from all of it."
Mariners left-hander Joe Saunders is also hoping to finish his season on a high note. He'll make his 30th start of the season after taking a no-decision on Thursday against the Royals by allowing three runs on 11 hits in 4 2/3 innings.
He is 3-1 with a 4.50 ERA against Houston this year, tossing 6 1/3 scoreless innings in his lone home start against the Astros back on April 8.
Astros: Corporan returns from DL
• Catcher Carlos Corporan was activated from the disabled list on Monday and started behind the plate at Safeco Field three weeks after suffering a concussion.
Corporan, the Astros' primary backup catcher all season, played in three rehab games at Double-A Corpus Christi, catching seven innings Saturday without any problems.
"I thought it was going to be seven days and that was it," Corporan said of his timetable to return to the lineup. "It was one week with symptoms, another trying to get ready and the other to do my rehab. I thought that it was not going to be that serious, but after I got hit and started getting my symptoms it was really scary."
Mariners: Felix to miss start
• Ace Felix Hernandez will miss his scheduled start on Wednesday against the Astros because of a minor oblique strain, Wedge said on Monday.
Brandon Maurer will make the start instead. The rookie right-hander started 10 games earlier this season and has been working in long-relief out of the bullpen. He is 4-7 with a 6.85 ERA this season.
Hernandez already had his start pushed back from Sunday after being removed from an outing on Sept. 2 in Kansas City in what was originally believed to be cramping in his lower back.
"I will pitch [again]. I'm fine," Hernandez said. "Why would they shut me down? I've got to go out there and do my best. That's what I'm trying to do. We're trying to finish strong. We're trying to win as many games as we can."
Worth noting
• Astros second baseman Jose Altuve is 18-for-40 in nine September games.
• Seattle is 6-12 in extra innings this season, which ties a club record from 1982 for extra-inning defeats.

Baseball coaches ask for livelier ball
OMAHA, Neb. College baseball is on pace to set a record for fewest home runs and a 40-year low for scoring and batting average. Now some coaches are calling for a livelier ball to bring the numbers back up.
The switch to toned-down metal bats in 2011 has led to an offensive decline greater than many expected.
The game isnt the same, Clemson coach Jack Leggett said this week. Its not as exciting.
Leggett is leading an effort to adopt the ball used in the minor leagues. That ball has flat seams and a harder core, which he says makes it conducive to greater flight than the college ball. No change could be made until the 2015 season.
The NCAAs midseason statistics report shows a continuation of the drastic offensive drop that began two years ago. Division I teams entered April averaging one home run about every three games. In 2010 the average was about one per game.
The per-team home-run average of 0.37 a game at midseason was on track to be the lowest since it was 0.40 in 1970, the first year the NCAA kept statistical trends.
The midseason batting average of .270 and per-team scoring of 5.25 runs are the lowest since 1973, the year before the aluminum bat was brought into the college game.
Bat standards were scrutinized for more than a decade after ridiculously high offensive numbers became the norm in college baseball in the late 1990s. The so-called trampoline effect of the old bats became a safety issue for fielders confronted by high-speed grounders and line drives. The current bats are designed to perform like wooden bats.
The effect of the change has been most apparent on the games biggest stage. After 32 home runs were hit in 16 games at the College World Series in Omaha in 2010, only nine were hit in 14 games in 2011 and 10 in 15 games in 2012.
Leggett and other college baseball people say the easiest solution to goose the offense, short of bringing in the fences, is to liven up the ball.
NCAA rules mandate balls used in regular-season and tournament play have a COR, or coefficient of restitution, of no greater than .555. The COR is a measure of bounciness at impact. The higher the COR, the greater the bounce. Balls used in pro baseball have a maximum COR of .578.
The NCAA does not set standards for seams, but national tournament games are played with a Rawlings ball that has raised seams. Because of that, most conferences choose to use the raised-seam ball in the regular season as well.
Though science hasnt offered a definitive answer, its widely believed that raised-seam balls have a drag effect and dont travel as far as those with flat seams.
An American Baseball Coaches Association survey of the 292 Division I coaches taken before the season indicated some concern. According to executive director Dave Keilitz, 53 percent wanted to keep the current COR value at .555, but 55 percent wanted the flat-seam ball to be the standard.
Keilitz said he plans to survey lower-division coaches this summer, and he has asked ball suppliers to provide detailed information on the differences between the college and pro ball.
I dont see any change coming unless they are willing to do a lot of research on it concerning the COR, Keilitz said. If the Division I, II and III coaches think we need to have a flat-seam ball instead of a raised seam, (the NCAA) might consider that.
Leggett said he surveyed about 50 coaches and that only one wanted to keep the ball as it is.
Rawlings is the ball supplier for more than half of college baseball teams and all the so-called power conferences, senior vice president for marketing Mike Thompson said.
We can build a ball however you want it, Thompson said. If the NCAA required us to produce a livelier ball, we would.
The NCAA Baseball Rules Committee wont consider rules changes until July 2014, meaning it would be the 2015 season before a new ball could be put into play. At least until then, home runs will be at a premium.
Only five of 292 Division I teams started the week averaging better than one home run a game. In the major leagues, on the other hand, 16 of the 30 teams are averaging more than one a game.
Samford and Mercer lead Division I with 45 homers. Then theres Iowa. The Hawkeyes have one, fewest in the nation, and it happened Feb. 17 when Nick Day went deep against Austin Peay in the third game of the season.
Iowa had just 10 homers last season and isnt built for the long ball. What little power the Hawks have has been compromised by the unseasonably cold and wet spring in the upper Midwest.
Iowa coach Jack Dahm said hes surprised by the low number of homers, not just by his team but by others. He said the lack of offense has been a popular topic among coaches.
A lot of people would like to see more offense back in the game, Dahm said, and the baseball would be a good way to add a little.
Keilitz said the loudest complaints he hears are from the coaches who have a history of relying on big offensive numbers as opposed to pitching and defense.
Leggetts Clemson team hit 93 homers, or 1.33 a game, in 2010. That dropped to 48 (0.76) in 2011 and 44 (0.70) in 2012. This season the Tigers have hit 13 in 40 games (0.33), with Garrett Boulware leading them with seven.
The season-ticket holders are looking for home runs, looking for excitement, Leggett said. I see them sitting on their hands a lot, everywhere I go. So I just think the simple transition to play with the minor league baseball is the way to go.MORE IN Sports WireCLEVELAND The headband returned.

Arkansas state employees who expose government waste and inefficiencies that lead to savings for the state will be entitled to a reward starting later this year.
Gov. Mike Beebe on Friday signed into law a bill changing the state's whistleblower statute to include a reward for reporting fraud and abuse in government.
A state employee whose report leads to savings for the state will be entitled to 10 percent of those savings, though the Legislature will have to approve awards larger than $12,500.
Supporters of the proposal say it's needed to deter inefficiency in state government while some lawmakers questioned whether it is necessary.
The law takes effect 90 days after the Legislature adjourns, which will likely be in March or April.

Supervisors must redraw district boundaries
Dan McDonald
It is time to adjust the district boundaries of the five county supervisors.
At the April 12 Board of Supervisors meeting, Plumas County GIS Planner Becky Osborn outlined the redistricting process that must be completed by Sept. 30.
Redistricting is done every 10 years, one year after the federal census.
The 2010 census showed 20,007 residents in Plumas County, a drop from the 20,824 people counted in 2000.
The latest census also revealed a population shift to the southern part of the county.
By law, the five districts must contain as close to 20 percent of the county's total population as possible. That would mean about 4,000 people per district, based on the 2010 census.
According to that census, Districts 1, 4 and 5 each have more than 21 percent of the population, with District 5 — which includes the population centers of East Quincy, Little Grass Valley and Graeagle — housing 4,457 people, or 22.28 percent.
By contrast, District 3, which includes Chester and most of the Lake Almanor area, has a population of 3,226, or 16 percent.
Although the county planners can make recommendations, it is up to the supervisors to approve the final boundaries.
"We will give you three scenarios at the next (supervisors) meeting," Osborn told the board. "And then you can give us suggestions about what you think and we can go from there."
The planners urged the board to have the two public hearings by the end of May. Those meetings are required by law.
Osborn said one of the goals of the redistricting is to preserve the basic shapes of the existing districts and to make sure that the elected supervisors still live within their district.
Other factors must be considered for the districts, such as topography, geography, cohesiveness, contiguity, integrity, compactness and community interests.
If, for any reason, the redistricting plan is not adopted before Nov. 1, state law requires a commission of elected county officials to redraw the district lines before Dec. 30.

Welp. Here we go again.
I almost developed periods by watching this trailer.....bbbbaaaarrrrffff!!!!
I don't know I didn't think it looks too bad. I wouldn't mind seeing more coverage of it.
I thi k this looks a million times better tha Host or Beautiful Creatures both of which sucked big time.
I'm just not a fan of that guy the one that played King Arthur in Camelot.
Well, with a director with those kinds of credentials (Pink Panther 2 and Agent Cody Banks) how could this not be epic?
The trailer alone has more action in it that either Beautiful Creatures or The Host in their entirety.
"A girl discovers she is "special" and then her parents get into trouble." Which is the plot of neither Twilight, the Host, or Beautiful Creatures. It is what happens in Harry Potter and Percy Jackson, but I assume those don't merit mention in relation to this movie, because this movie is about a girl and so has a terrible case of GIRL COOTIES, while those are about boys and so are a-okay despite also having Hot Topic merch.
Personally, I'd like to see coverage of the film, because there are a lot of actors I like in it. Harald Zwart has done some sucky films but his Karate Kid was quite good. But I'm not that interested in seeing coverage that boils down to I HATE GIRLS, YOU HATE GIRLS, MOVIES WITH TEEN GIRL MAIN CHARACTERS ARE AUTOMATICALLY TWILIGHT, AMIRITE DUDES? I mean, seriously, period jokes in the comments? Are you people nine?
Excuse jedibanner, he has no respect for women at all.
As far as the Host and BC comparison yes it's merited because of the leads. Too often female leads in film become a little too channeled to attract female tweens, usually with a corny love story. Nothing wrong with it except it becomes the pricipal plot of the story
An interview with the author, director and or protagonist about the twilight comparisons might shed a lot of light on the divisiveness within genre fans. It does look to have a lot of action, and has a visual style last seen in the Percy Jackson movies. I'll take my teen.
I've read the first book and, although it's ooookay...it feels a little too informed from the sci-fi genre. And the chapters seemed to play like a standard tentpole summer movie, which also detracted from the story. I haven't read the rest of the books and I don't know if I will or not.

Information overload getting you down? These readers learned to control the flow and dumped the pileup guilt.
There are more than 18,000 magazines in the United States. ¶ About 195,000 new books were published last year. ¶ Nearly 12 billion e-mails are sent every day in the U.S. alone. ¶ And the number of websites and blogs just waiting for you to give them a bit of attention? Let's not even go there. ¶ The information age indeed. At times, it feels more like the overwhelmed-with-information age. Between business must-reads and that hot novel everybody's talking about, catching up on your reading often seems like an impossible task. But it doesn't have to be. "I think it can overwhelm you if you let it," says John Buchanan, president of the hospitality industry's Lettuce Consulting Group. "I think the key is being able to filter what comes to you and not let the weight of it [all] get you down." ¶ We spoke with eight people who have put information-control strategies to work for their work and personal lives. Read on to find out how you can turn that stack of magazines sitting on your night table into action items that will move your business forward.
The Traveler
There are weeks when Cynthia Park is on the road (or in the air) 60 percent of the time. So the executive vice president and managing director of Kang & Lee Advertising, which focuses on the Asian-American market, reads early in the morning and in snatches of time throughout the day.
She rises as early as 5:30 a.m. to start her news-reading ritual in front of her computer or with the occasional hard copy of a newspaper. "I purposely look for information when there's no outside pressure. I really like to tackle it. I want to understand it," she says. "My job calls for that - to be on the ball."
To take advantage of travel time or any unused time waiting for appointments, Park keeps a folder of reading materials with her at all times. When magazines or other periodicals arrive in the mail, she puts them in that folder, so there's no wasted time searching around.
Though Park used to subscribe to several newspapers at her house, she was often faced with a guilt-inducing stack when she got home from a trip. It would "stress me out," she says. She canceled the subscriptions and started reading the papers online. But Park is conscious of how easy it is to get caught up in the constant updating of news stories on the Web. "It's okay if you get the information in 48 or 72 hours," she says. "I'm trying to get the complete story."
The Clipper
Lettuce Consulting Group's John Buchanan didn't need to know about milk shakes the day he saw an article on the ice cream treats in one of eight trade magazines he reads every month. But just in case, he clipped it out and tossed it into his "future" file. A month later, one of his clients wanted to talk about - you guessed it - milk shakes. Buchanan, who says he's "disciplined bordering on anal but not crazy," has a clippings file system that goes several layers deep - from broad catchall files like the future folder to topic-specific files (such as one labeled "dessert") to files for specific projects. "Each individual has to draw the line as to how much organization they need," he says. "Going beyond that would be crazy."
Along with his endless clipping, Buchanan relies on refined Web searches to find information. "If you Google 'milk shakes,' you'll get 50,000 hits," he says. Once his search results come up, Buchanan scans through to see if the information is appropriate. "What I don't do is click on the first 20 and print them all up. It's more than likely that I won't get to them."

The New School for Social Research
The New School > The New School for Social Research NSSR > Ethnography as Fieldwork and Philosophy
Apply Online | Contact
"Fieldwork in philosophy" is a term that the British philosopher John Austin used, one Pierre Bourdieu borrowed to define his work, and Paul Rabinow after him. With such a rich genealogy of adherents, it is surprising how little work has attempted to define what such a venture might look like, what it is not, and what it could be. Anthropologists have long called on philosophy in very different ways to establish analytic authority, to apply ready -made philosophical concepts to an ethnographic and empirical domain, and less frequently to call on the methods of philosophical thinking to generate new concepts in ethnographic domains. In this seminar, we begin to explore this notion of fieldwork in philosophy from several angles: one, by looking at the varied relationship anthropology has had to philosophy historically and why it is now that epistemology and ontology have emerged as so common to ethnographic vocabularies; two, by looking at a primary philosophical enterprise --concept formation -- and what procedures and sorts of questions it entails, and three by exploring concept formation as an ethnographic enterprise and thus to imagine a broader social field of critical inquiry in which multiple sorts of philosophical interlocutors exercise their craft. Anthropologists (Val Daniel and Vincent Crapanzano) who have worked deeply in a philosophical mode as well as a philosophers who have worked critically in social theory (among them Richard Bernstein and Jay Bernstein) will be joining us for discussion. This seminar is open to students from philosophy, anthropology and other disciplines. Enrollment is limited. Prior permission of the professor is required.

Urinary continence is maintained by a muscular sphincter that surrounds the urethra as it exits the bladder.
An artificial urinary sphincter is used to treat stress incontinence in men that is caused by urethral dysfunction such as after prostate surgery. Additionally this procedure may be performed in men and women with sphincter dysfunction related to spinal cord injury or multiple sclerosis. Most experts advise their patients to try medication and bladder retraining therapy first before resorting to this treatment. Alternatives to this procedure are the pubovaginal sling in women or the periurethral injection of collagen in men and women.
An artificial sphincter consists of three parts:
To treat urinary incontinence, the cuff is placed around the bladder neck so that when it is inflated, the urethra will close tightly. The pressure regulating balloon will be placed under the tissues of the lower abdomen. The balloon is filled with a liquid (occasionally, an iodine-based solution will be used so that it will be visualized when x-ray procedures are performed). The control pump mechanism is placed in the labia for women, and in the scrotum for men. To use the sphincter, the person will compress (squeeze) the pump to divert fluid from the urethral cuff to the balloon. This action will allow the sphincter to relax so that the person can urinate. The cuff will then re-inflate on its own in 3 to 5 minutes .
When inflated, the cuff constricts the urethra and blocks passage of any urine. When deflated, the cuff reduces pressure on the urethra and allows for free passage of urine.
If you had an artificial urinary sphincter placed, you will return from surgery with a foley catheter in place, which will be remove prior to discharge. The artificial sphincter cuff will be not be inflated immediately after surgery to allow the tissues to heal. About 6 weeks after surgery you will be taught how to activate your pump to inflate the artificial sphincter.

Great job Paolo. I love the pasture scene!John
Here's my version using chives from the garden and cooking in a Big Steel Keg grill. For future versions, for pure functionality of eating, I think I'll chop the chives into 1/2" lengths so that the entire leaf doesn't pull off whenever it is bitten into.
So I think I need to try this. I have yet to really love any pizzas without red sauce. I will post my pizza when I try it. Looking forward to it!

Dodgers streaking into sweep attempt in Toronto
With five straight wins out of break, LA turns to Nolasco vs. Rogers
The Dodgers scraped and clawed their way back from a woeful start to take the lead in the National League West, and they aren't showing any signs of letting up, having won five straight since the All-Star break.
On the other side of the spectrum, the Blue Jays have lost five in a row since the Midsummer Classic (six overall), and the two clubs are set to meet for their series finale Wednesday night at Rogers Centre.
Ricky Nolasco will make his fourth start for the Dodgers, with whom he has posted a 3.12 ERA. He has allowed eight hits in each of his last two starts without making it out of the sixth inning. But over that time Nolasco has managed to limit the damage to five total runs.
The veteran right-hander came to the Dodgers earlier this month in a trade with Miami. In 7 1/2 seasons with the Marlins, he became the franchise's all-time leader in wins and strikeouts.
Opposite Nolasco will be fellow righty Esmil Rogers (3-4, 3.84 ERA). In his most recent start -- a no-decision on Friday against Tampa Bay -- Rogers surrendered four homers, marking a season high among Toronto starting pitchers.
Still, both Rogers and manager John Gibbons were convinced he had excellent stuff and simply made four mistakes that the Rays were able to capitalize on.
"He never really got into trouble, it was just the solo home runs," Gibbons said. "That was kind of a funny game for him. When he was on, he was dominating."
Rogers, formerly a member of the Rockies, has faced Los Angeles more than any other club. In his 13 outings against them, he's 0-1 with a 5.52 ERA.
He'll have to contend with a red-hot Dodgers offense that posted 10 runs Tuesday night in a wild come-from-behind victory. Rookie phenom Yasiel Puig went 2-for-3 with a walk, bringing his average to .369 and marking his first multi-hit game since the break.
Dodgers: Marmol called up
• Former Cubs right-hander Carlos Marmol made his first appearance with the Dodgers on Tuesday, as Jose Dominguez was placed on the disabled list with a strained left quad. He struggled, allowing three runs in 1 2/3 innings.
"I like the team, it wins every day," said Marmol, who posted a 5.86 ERA in 31 appearances for the Cubs. "With all the players here, it's a good team. How can I say no? Better than Chicago."
Blue Jays: Players-only meeting called
• Heading into the season the Blue Jays became a trendy choice to win the American League East, given their slew of offseason acquisitions. Instead, they sit in last place and on Tuesday night, they held a players-only meeting that lasted more than an hour.
"We ended up having the meeting, and for the most part it went well," Blue Jays closer Casey Janssen said. "But right now they're just words. I think everybody, including myself and my teammates, want to see it on the field."
Worth noting
• In 47 career at-bats against Nolasco, Blue Jays shortstop Jose Reyes is hitting .340 with three homers and a .963 OPS.
• In the all-time series between the Blue Jays and the Dodgers, neither club has swept a series in four previous tries. Los Angeles has a chance to do so Wednesday night.
• Blue Jays first baseman Edwin Encarnacion is hitting .354 with five homers in 16 Interleague games this season.
• Since July 5, the Dodgers bullpen has combined to post a 1.35 ERA.

Part 3: The Crystal Ball
Film Still, The Wizard of Oz.
<continued from Part 2: Infinite Summer Afternoons>
During the 1939 film version of The Wizard of Oz, Dorothy visits Professor Marvel and has him read her fortune from his crystal ball. He asks her to close her eyes and takes the opportunity to "read" the belongings in her basket. From these artifacts, Professor Marvel pieces together a story based on his intuition of the meaning of the objects and the context of Dorothy's visit. Professor Marvel is reading Dorothy's aura by diving into her metadata and delivers his observations in dramatic and persuasive tones.
Now imagine if Dorothy visited Professor Marvel in the 21st century. His crystal ball is a web-ready mobile device capable of scanning Dorothy's possessions, clothes, face – maybe even her DNA. This cloud of data is cross-referenced and interlinked with Dorothy's online profiles and he's able to quickly conjure up an extremely detailed impression of Dorothy's past, present and future. At the very least, he'd spot Auntie Em in Dorothy's Flickr account and come to similar conclusions about Dorothy's family situation as he does in the film.
As aurec technology improves it will know more and more about us; it will become better at predicting what we do and how we prefer to do it. It will enable us to customize our interactions with everything that surrounds us while also allowing us to share these preferences with others. Search is the essential experience of the web (witness Google). The web asks us "what are you looking for?" every time we use it. To understand the potential of aurec we need to be sensitized to the fact that it will reduce the importance of the question/answer relationship posed by the web and open up an environment of ambient data.
It is my hope that shared aurec experiences will have positive effects on our relationships with other people, allowing us new degrees of emotional intimacy and mutual understanding. Aurec has the potential to change our relations with natural and urban environments by revealing otherwise hidden information on a bespoke basis. This could lead to increased corporate and governmental transparency/accountability as the norm shifts to a sharing paradigm as opposed to hiding data. The more we shift our attention away from gimmicky iphone apps and focus on the broader ontological implications of aura recognition, the more aurec will have the best chances of actualization.

Part 2: Infinite Summer Afternoons
Images from Initiations-Studies II by Panos Tsagaris with Kimberley Norcott
Having summarily rejected the term augmented reality for the reasons listed here, I'll now propose alternate terminology to describe the phenomenon. The following elements contribute to this formation:
- The mobile web will enable us to become aware of metadata that was previously obscured in day-to-day life.
- Many current AR applications pride themselves on exposing indications of present metadata relationships which are not as readily apparent as traditional urban indicators (think: fashion).
- Contemporary visions of AR as something which will merely allow us to hold up our smart phones and look through an AR "window".
This process of metadata revealing is termed "aura recognition" (or aurec for short). In a future post I will address what I see as shortcomings of visual interfaces for aurec.
In his essay The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction (1935), Walter Benjamin makes the following observations regarding aura:
If, while resting on a summer afternoon, you follow with your eyes a mountain range on the horizon or a branch which casts its shadow over you, you experience the aura of those mountains, of that branch. This image makes it easy to comprehend the social bases of the contemporary decay of the aura. It rests on two circumstances, both of which are related to the increasing significance of the masses in contemporary life. Namely, the desire of contemporary masses to bring things "closer" spatially and humanly, which is just as ardent as their bent toward overcoming the uniqueness of every reality by accepting its reproduction. Every day the urge grows stronger to get hold of an object at very close range by way of its likeness, its reproduction."
Certainly – since 1935 – these two "social bases" identified by Benjamin have reached their apex in contemporary digital life. Never before have we had as much convenience in bringing things – whether physical objects or information – into our immediate proximity (think: Amazon, Ebay, Google). Neither have we had the experience of such widespread meme and brand propagation in our physical environment (eg shopping malls, international airports, and fast food franchises). Benjamin continues:
Unmistakably, reproduction as offered by picture magazines and newsreels differs from the image seen by the unarmed eye. Uniqueness and permanence are as closely linked in the latter as are transitoriness and reproducibility in the former. To pry an object from its shell, to destroy its aura, is the mark of a perception whose "sense of the universal equality of things" has increased to such a degree that it extracts it even from a unique object by means of reproduction. Thus is manifested in the field of perception what in the theoretical sphere is noticeable in the increasing importance of statistics. The adjustment of reality to the masses and of the masses to reality is a process of unlimited scope, as much for thinking as for perception."
This "sense of the universal equality of things" is the hallmark of the web. All searches are, ostensibly, equal before Google. Yet, among the ruins of this auric destruction, the web is simultaneously imbuing our lives with all kinds of unique and permanent phenomena. These phenomena make up the essence of our digital auras; auras created less by physical objects than by the specificity of context, relationship and juxtaposition. Aura Recognition is the means by which we access these phenomena.
Consider for instance how unique it is to geophysically meet someone who you've only previously known online. In the best case scenario, aurec will help us make sense of the emotional significance of digital phenomenon in ways which are meaningful and helpful. Location based services (think: GPS technology) provoke new experiences which are just as dependent on proximity as Benjamin's proverbial summer afternoon.
<to be continued in _Part 3: The Crystal Ball_>
Part 1: Absurd Assumptions
As many opinion leaders have noted, Augmented Reality (AR) may very well be the next evolutionary step in bringing the metadata of the web into our day-to-day lives. Some suggest that AR technology may even surpass the Web in its sustained impact on culture.
While I whole-heartedly agree with this observation, the use of the term "Augmented Reality" may actually impede any progress forged by these technologies, especially in terms of broad/mainstream acceptance.
The first reason why the actual phrase "Augmented Reality" may impede the cultural uptake of associated technologies is via the use of the word "augmented" – meaning to raise or make larger. AR enthusiasts seem to be comfortable implying that this new technology is somehow the first technology to augment or enhance our reality. This seems absurd, as human societies have a well-documented history of using biochemical technology to augment reality in the tradition of psychotropic plant-aided shamanism. The innovation of written language was a concrete visualization of reality-augmenting metadata. The city may also be considered an extension of reality considering cities are highly constructed frameworks of architecture, roads, sewers, electrical and telephone lines. It seems more relevant to utilize a word that more accurately describes the idiosyncratic peculiarities of a mobile web-ready experience.
My second reason for objecting to the AR term stems from when the word "reality" is employed in relation to what are (in most cases) mobile-web applications. This usage implies that other computer applications are not affecting reality, or at least are not affecting reality sufficiently to be labeled accordingly. This also seems an absurd assumption; the host of software which has prevailed during the history of computing have had an affect on reality too (this, of course, is a total understatement). If it were not for preceding software which has already changed our reality, these so-called "augmented reality" applications would not even exist. Furthermore, this use of "reality" in this context indicates that there is one concrete reality which we are in the process of altering with specific technology. Yet, each of us have our own subjective "reality" experience, with some physicists even postulating theories of a holographic reality. While standards for augmented reality ought to be open to ensure accessibility by any mobile web-enabled device, it is a fallacy to interpret these standards as a consensus on reality itself. This new technology is posed to allow us to customize and tweak our own experience of our reality like never before, as well as the "reality" we share with others.

A typically blonde, high-maintenance girl usually fairly popular for all the wrong reasons. Often nicknamed Jess, Jessie, J dawg or even try-hard slut by some. She enjoys getting into trouble and making horrible decisions to get attention from as many people as possible. She is also very over-emotional, can cry and apologize a lot and is disgusting when drunk.
"Aww man, Jessica just spewed again and now she's makin out with james!! How drunk do you get?!"

Jessica is the sweetest girl you will ever meet basically. She is known to be the sexiest person who walked the planet. Boys get nervous when around her and a lot of boys have a crush on her. Jessica is aspired to by others. She will show you a good time and also has a crazy/wild side to her. When you meet a Jessica, you will have a hard time forgetting her! She falls in love easily and loves to laugh. But she has a down side to her, like every girl, she has great shyness. When she falls in love, she falls deep. Boys love her! Jessica in a term means goddess. She has incredible looks. When you find a Jessica, don't let her go! Shes beautiful, talented and has an amazing body. Guys like to often flirt with her but she doesn't take that to heart. She isn't perfect, but then again, who is? Shes very active and likes to do things. Jessica likes to dress nice and when gets complimented, denies all of it. Shes very artistic and is a great dancer. Boys are lucky to have her! Shes also very supportive and a great friend! She speaks her mind and doesn't care what people think! She has great eyes and hair. Jessica is very loyal and open, her family value her a lot. She is loved by lots of people and even people whom she might not know about! She is an all round amazing person who everyone is grateful to have in their lives.
Josh: ''Hey, that Jessica seem really nice, shes fit too!''
Gary: ''Yeah Jessica's great ain't she? I kinda fancy her a bit''

The absolute most perfect person on the planet. No arguments. Everything about this girl is so amazing that she is sometimes thought to be an angel or goddess. She is the most beautiful girl to live on this planet. She will deny that, but it is a true fact and everybody knows it. She is the kindest, most caring person ever who will do anything to make you feel special. And she has the cutest laugh, smile, face, and pretty much anything else you can think of.
Guy 1: Hey, who's that angel over there?
Guy 2: That's Jessica, I also think she's an angel.
Guy 2: That's Jessica, I also think she's an angel.

I am delighted with using this product. It gives me energy and helps in digestion. it is also very cheap in comparison to other shops.
This product was not what I expected. It was very watery. It was labeled as Gel & Juice so I assumed would be much thicker. That's what I get for assuming.

Time Warner Cable's research program releases 2 new reports
Yesterday, Time Warner Cable released two reports as part of its Research Program on Digital Communications, which was launched two years ago.
The program was designed to increase understanding of the benefits and challenges facing digital technologies in the home, office, classroom and community. The reports are available free for download at the program's website [1].
The report "Market structure and media diversity" looked at the impact of the decrease in the number of independent broadcast television stations in a market, which has a negative impact on consumer welfare.
The second report, "Between markets and mandates: Approaches to promoting access for persons with disabilities," examined access to broadband by individuals with disabilities in order to identify programs and policies that promote broadband adoption.
"These reports from the best and brightest thought leaders in telecommunications and media policy are a wonderful resource to policymakers and industry stakeholders alike," said Fernando Laguarda, director of the program and vice president for external affairs and policy counselor at Time Warner Cable. "The feedback from the community is overwhelmingly positive, and the demand for fresh thinking remains strong. We are pleased to continue making a contribution to the communications and technology policy debate."
The Time Warner Cable Research Program on Digital Communications awards stipends to foster research dedicated to increasing understanding of the benefits and challenges facing the future of digital technologies.
