Violence appears to have spread in China's Xinjiang after deadly attack
BEIJING (Reuters) - Western tourists saw a body lying in a pool of blood in a major city in China's violence-prone Xinjiang province on Wednesday, as security forces flooded in after the government said dozens of knife-wielding attackers were shot dead elsewhere in the region earlier in the week.
There were indications that unrest had spread by Wednesday to Kashgar, a popular tourist site especially during the summer.
A French traveller said he saw a body lying in a pool of blood outside the Id Kah Mosque in Kashgar's old town on Wednesday morning, and armed police pouring into the city by afternoon. "We heard shouting and my friend saw two people running away with knives. Police came quickly and told people not to take pictures. They checked mobile phones," he told Reuters by telephone. He added that it was the reasons for the violence were unclear and he could not tell if those involved were Uighur or members of China's majority Han ethnicity.
When leaving Kashgar on Wednesday, the traveller said a long convoy of armed police vehicles, including at least five armoured personnel carriers, drove into the city. "All cars coming into Kashgar were being turned around," he said. "These were urban tanks with machine guns, not water cannon," another European citizen accompanying him said.

Released: Apr 01st, 2004
Running Time:
Director: Chi Chi LaRue
Company: Vivid Entertainment Group
Sunrise Adams, Mercedes (I), Jenna Jameson, Kira Kener, Dascha, Savanna Samson, Taya, Briana Banks
Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: All-Sex
Despite the less-than-scorching sex, with that cast - especially Jameson - this should move big time. One or more copies in your new releases, all-girl and Vivid sections.
What the latest volume of this all-girl line lacks in uh, balls-to-the-wall nastiness, it makes up for somewhat by its awesome cast - the porn royalty that are the Vivid Girls (well, at least the Vivid Girls as of last year's shooting).
Done up as fetishy fallen angels replete with black-feathered wings, the girls dazzle with their supreme eye candiness. But the five scenes they appear in, while stylishly shot, alas, only give off moderate amounts of heat as the babes eat and finger and dil each other in various combinations, including the under-realized Jenna Jameson/Sunrise Adams face-off.
If there's a sexual standout here, it's got to be big-lunged Briana Banks, arguably the nastiest Vivid Girl, who slaps her pussy hard as Savanna Samson eats her, then voraciously attacks Samson's slit. Later, in the cast inclusive (except Jameson, who merely watches the proceedings from high atop a throne) closing orgy, Banks rides a big black double headed dong with gusto, though the scene as a whole, like what preceded it, never cums to a full boil. Distracting from the action are the gay boy toys kneeling at Jameson's feet, witnessing all that pussy; they look bored, out of place and definitely not turned on.
Pre-nom WTBA16 anyway for Best All-Girl Feature based largely on its sheer star power.

For a time, it seemed pollution and habitat destruction would sound the death knell for Tampa Bay and inhabitants. But passage of the Clean Water Act and action by federal, state and local governments helped turn the tide.
The Tampa Regional Planning Council's Agency on Bay Management has worked for nearly two decades to clean up the bay. And today, Tampa BayWatch, a non-profit environmental stewardship program for the state's largest estuary, spearheads the effort for community-driven restoration projects.
Through its saltmarsh plantings and high school wetland nursery, seagrass transplanting and seawall oyster reef programs, BayWatch has helped improve the quality of life for the humans, fish, birds and mammals that call Tampa Bay home.
BayWatch relies on public donations to keep its program going. For membership opportunities or to find out how to volunteer your time, call (727) 896-5320.

SilverPower. Now there's a name I haven't heard for a good few years. Originally founded by Tagan back in 2004 as their budget range, SilverPower has had a fairly slow but steady life with a string of good reviews including the Blue Lightning 600w that launched the brand and the GuardianX 1000W that ironically got pulled from the shelves because it was better than most of Tagan's high-end models at the time!
Fast forward 6 years to the current day and Tagan are pretty much out of the game with only a few of their previous-gen units floating around on retailers weekly special lists. However their sibling is still going strong mostly thanks to its good positioning price-wise and the currently poor state of the economy. However let's not beat about the bush and get straight into the specs...
• Super high efficiency for energy savings (Energy Star 4.0 compliant)
• Detachable modular cables - use precisely the cables you need
• DC to DC converter design, superior dynamic response & greater system stability
• Practical dual +12 V Rails, ample 12 V output with OCP for extreme utilisation
• Tight voltage regulation, improved load regulation to minimise voltage fl uctuations
• Japanese high temperature (105°C) capacitors
• Solid capacitors on 12V rails for extreme stress operation conditions
• Active power factor correction [99% PF] for reduced line noise and power distortion
• Dual sided PCB layout for better use of PCP space
• Smart and silent fan control [S2FC], one of the best performance noise controller available on the
• San Ace silent fan [SANYO DENKI], premium quality fan for silent operation; 12 cm ball bearing
fan mounted on soft rubber cushions to reduce fan vibration and rotation noises
• Ultra ventilation [honey comb structure] for increased airfl ow and reduced noise levels
• All in one DC cabling design to support PC, IPC, workstation systems
• 4x 6+2 pin PCI-E connectors to support all multi-GPU platforms
• Patented Easy Swap peripheral connectors for easy plug and unplug connection
• Universal AC input for plug and run anywhere around the world
• Over Voltage / Under Voltage / Over Current / Over Power / Short Circuit Protection
• >150,000 hours MTBF, excluding fan
• 2 Year warranty
Super high efficiency, DC to DC design, dual +12v rails, Jap caps, Sanyo Denki fan, 2yr warranty......certainly doesn't sound like your average budget PSU. In fact it sounds better than a lot of the high-end models I've seen recently. I'm intrigued.
Silver Power 750w Rail Layout | ||||||||||
DC Output | +3.3V | +5V | +12V1 | +12V2 | +12V3 | +12V4 | +12V5 | +12V6 | -12V | +5VSB |
Max Power | 150W | 744W | 9.6W | 15W | ||||||
A closer look at the rails reveals a fairly powerful +5v rail sitting alongside a slightly lower powered +3.3v rail. Of course the maximum output of both rails no matter the distribution of load is 150w. Over on the +12v side both rails sit at 38A with maximum load of 744w (62A). At least with a dual rail layout we are almost guaranteed that the unit is using OCP to protect from overloading - unlike most single rail PSU's.
Lets move on...
Packaging & Appearance
When it comes to box graphics, most manufacturers tend to use some thing along the lines of fast cars or sniper rifles to symbolise performance and power. Silver Power on the other hand have opted for an angry Gorilla! Sure Gorilla's are powerful, and in that sense it does get the message across that the PSU means (no monkey) business. But they're not exactly the nicest of creatures to look at, and I'm sure that Silver Power could have come up with something a little more inventive based around their name.
Inside the box is a strictly no frills affair with only the required accessories to get you up and running plus all of the modular cables inside a separate canvas drawstring bag. The PSU its self has been given only minimal protection from courier damage by being wrapped in bubblewrap. Our sample arrived in perfect condition, but your mileage may vary depending on what outer packaging is used by online retailers.
The overall appearance of the PSU is also on the basic side with Silver Power opting for a plain matte black finish along with a silver wire grill covering a 120mm fan (how old school!). Unfortunately Mr Angry Gorilla isn't just limited to appearances on the packaging, but also on the fan grill badge as well.
Moving round to the sides and rear there really is very little to speak about again....other than Mr Angry Gorilla. I'm beginning to wonder if people may avoid purchasing this PSU purely because they don't want to have the crap frightened out of them whenever they peer inside their windowed PC case.
Here's where it gets a little interesting. Round the front of the unit is a total of six modular connectors accompanied by a bundle of hard-wired connectors. Going from left to right, the first two modular connectors are for PCI-e power while the remaining four are for Molex/SATA. Interestingly Silver Power have decided not to colour code the connectors, instead keeping everything in stealthy black.
Let's move on to the next page now and take a closer look at the modular interface and cables.
Cables & Connectors
Starting with the usability of the modular connector system we immediately hit a rather major flaw. As the image below-left shows, it is possible to plug one of the Molex/SATA cables into one of the PCI-E headers. What does this mean? Well imagine accidentally plugging your £400 SSD Drive (that is designed to run at 3v/5v) straight into 12v....not a pretty sight. In short, Silver Power haven't done enough to make sure that numpties don't fry their hardware when plugging in modular connectors.
On the up-side though, Silver Power have opted to use the 'ribbon' style modular cables often seen on high-end PSU's manufactured by Corsair and ULTRA. These look so much more tidy that traditional sleeved cables and have a tighter bend radius under most circumstances. A total of seven cables are provided, meaning that one cable will always be left over if you decide to make use of all the modular headers. However, this does give you the flexability to use 3x Molex and 1x SATA cables if you have more Molex than SATA devices, or visa-versa if your PC is filled with something ridiculous like 12 hard disks (ahem Tom!). *Editors note. Whats up with 12 hard drives its a server?!*
Going in for a closer look at the ATX 24-Pin, EPS 8-Pin and PCI-E 8-Pin connectors we can see that Silver Power have retained compatibility with older/lower range motherboards and graphics cards by allowing certain parts of the connectors to be snapped off in order to support 20-Pin, 4-Pin and 6-Pin standards respectively. This is a feature that has been dropped by a lot of manufacturers on their higher-wattage models, so it's good to see that Silver Power aren't so quick to ditch the legacy standards.
Silver Power 750w Connectors | ||
ATX Connector | Hard Wired | 1x 20+4 Pin |
EPS-12v / P4-12v Connector(s) | Hard Wired | 1x 4+4 Pin |
Molex Connectors | Modular | 6x |
Floppy Disk Connectors | Modular | 1x |
SATA Connectors | Modular | 9x |
PCI-E Connectors | Modular / Hard Wired | 2x 6+2 Pin / 2x 6+2 Pin |
The table above shows the number of connectors included with the Silver Power 750w in both modular and hard wired formats. Yet again we can see that manufacturers seem to be favoring SATA over Molex connectors despite SATA being limited to Hard Disk and optical devices. But anyway, let's not get too tied up with the cables and instead move on to the PSU's internals...
Internal Components
Well, well, well. Lookie what we have here. If I'm not mistaken, this particular Silver Power unit was was given birth to at the Seasonic factory. In fact, wouldn't you say that those internals look mighty similar to the XFX Black Edition that I reviewed at the end of last year? However, before you all dismiss the Silver Power as being likely to explode under heavy loads, what we need to remember is that the XFX unit had a single +12v rail with no OCP, whereas the Silver Power is listed as having two rails, more than likely to be virtually split using OCP.
As seen in the specifications the Silver Power 750w uses 'DC-DC Technology' which essentially means that the primary transformer in the unit converts 240VAC down to a single 12VDC output that is then converted to 3.3VDC and 5VDC by a set of VRM modules. The smaller of the two transformers is used exclusively for the +5vSB stand-by rail.
The primary (high voltage) capacitors are manufactured by Japanese company Nippon Chemicon and carry the rating of 400v / 390uF / 105°C. This high quality is also carried over to the secondary (low voltage) side of the unit where a range of Nippon Chemicon KZE capacitors has been used, most with specs of 16v / 2900uf / 105°C. Even looking at some of the smaller capacitors, everything is Nippon. So hopefully this will translate to some really nice scope results and a long PSU life.
Last but not least we come to the fan. Silver Power have opted for a Sanyo Denki San Ace 120 unit carrying the model number of 9S1212H403. Unfortunately the specifications for this fan seem to be quite elusive as a quick search of Google and Sanyo's website didn't turn up any accurate results. However after extensive digging around non-english websites, a few seemed to suggest that the fan is capable of 83CFM at <36dbA.
Now that the internal examination is complete, it's time to see just how the unit performs over on the next page...
Simulated Load Results (Graphs)
As per usual I'm going to be conducting the testing of the Silver Power 750w on OC3D's trusty SunMoon SM-268+ DC load tester. This equipment is capable of placing a user specified load on all of the PSU's rails (+3.3v, +5v, +12v, -12v, +5vSB) up to a maximum load of 1680w. Ambient temperature will also be maintained at Sahara-like temperatures of 50°C (±5%) with all results being recorded using a Fluke Digital Multimeter and Thermometer.
For those of you not familiar with the layout of our relatively new graphs, the highest and lowest values on the Y-axis (voltage) represent the maximum and minimum voltages allowed by ATX specifications. If the results should fall outside the graph at any time, then that's an instant FAIL. However, merely staying inside these boundaries does not necessarily indicate a good PSU. In order to display truly great voltage regulation, a PSU must stick as closely as possible to the thick white horizontal line (ideal voltage) as possible.
You will also notice that the graph is split into three sections as depicted by the Green, Amber and Red backgrounds. These indicate normal usage (green), heavily uneven load distribution (amber) and overloading of the PSU (red). For the most part all we need to worry about is how it performs in the green section, but good performance in the other sections will undoubtedly earn the PSU extra brownie points.
Both the +3.3v and +5v rail voltages start a little on the high side in the first of the tests at 3.41v and 5.16v respectively. Normally this would be an early warning that the output voltage is likely to dip significantly as load is applied and that the manufacturer has set the voltages higher to counteract this. However, in the case of the Silver Power 750w this couldn't be further from the truth. Those lines are about the straightest lines I've ever encountered from any PSU, and if Silver Power were to drop the idle voltages just a tad, the results could have easily been sitting proud with the white line. Even when a wonky cross-load is placed on the rails there is very little effect. Simply awesome.
The +12v rail tells a similar story with a rather high idle voltage and only a minor droop in voltages as increasing load is applied. Once again the PSU is totally unfazed by cross-loads on either the +3.3v & 5v or +12v rails and even the max load results where the PSU is pushed to a whopping 930w the output voltage doesn't drop below 12.06v. Oh and yes, you heard that right....the Silver Power can put out almost 200w more than its rated 750w output.
As seen back on the introduction and packaging pages, the Silver Power 750w is 80PLUS Silver certified. This guarantees that the PSU will have an efficiency level of 85% at 150w and 750w loads along with 89% efficiency at 375w. As we can see from the graph above the unit has absolutely no trouble meeting these targets, consistently delivering between 89-90% efficiency. Of course, we need to bear in mind that those running from 120v mains (N.America / Japan) will see slightly lower results than these due to our 240v mains setup. But even with a 1-2% drop in efficiency the Silver Power unit should still have no problems living up to its certifications.
Simulated Load Results (Data)
OK, so we've seen the graphs over on the previous page. Now here's the data that they were derived from.

3.38v | 5.11v | 12.06v | 4.94v | -12.26v |
To repeat what's already been said on the previous page, the Silver Power SP-SS750M is one very stable PSU across all tests including the Max load test where it's pushed to an impressive 936w. The only minor issue I'd like to see rectified is the relatively high idle voltages that give the feeling that Silver Power haven't spent much time fine tuning the unit. As for the rest of the results: efficiency is great, exhaust temperatures are low and cross-loading the unit had little negative effect. Nice.

The greatness also continues on to the ripple results where the +12v rail seems to be impersonating a pancake. Seriously though, 30mV of ripple on the +12v rail at full load is quite possibly the best result seen yet on OC3D since we began using the oscilloscope. The +3.3v rail is equally as awesome with a maximum ripple of 18mV in test 4 and only slightly higher in the Max Load test. The +5v rail results seem to go hand-in-hand with the +12v results which may suggest that only the +3.3v rail received the DC-DC VRM treatment whereas the +5v rail was derived direct from the transformer. But regardless the results are still well within ATX specs.
Now on to the conclusion...
In the past, Silver Power have always managed to strike a decent medium between price, performance and features. With this in mind I'm going to start this conclusion by taking a look at the price: £95. To put that into perspective, that's £30 cheaper than the Corsair HX750w, £15 cheaper than the XFX 750w, £30 cheaper than the Be Quiet P8 750w and £20 cheaper than the Enermax Infiniti 720w.
Of course price means absolutely nothing if the PSU doesn't have the performance, stability and safety to justify the expense. So how does the SP-SS750M fair?
Well, starting with the voltage stability all three of the main rails fluctuated very little from idle to full load. In fact, the +3.3v rail in particular produced an almost straight line on the results graphs showing that Silver Power haven't just concentrated on the performance of the +12 rail like some manufacturers, but on the PSU as a whole. This was also reflected in the cross-load and maximum load testing that didn't show any weakness in the PSU at all. In fact, with a maximum load of 936w being maintained continously in the OCP/Max Load test it really showed just how strong the unit is.
I have to admit being slightly worried that the Silver Power shared almost identical internals to the XFX Black Edition PSU that I blew up two of last year, but these worries were soon proved to be totally unfounded as the Silver Power 750w powered off safely as soon as the OCP threshold was breached.
Efficiency was also above advertised levels by a few % at any given load level and the ripple results....WHOA...the ripple results on the +12v rail in particular were simply awesome. 30mV at 750w load could quite possibly be one of the lowest (best) results I've seen in a long time/ever. The +3.3v rail was also equally as good, and only the +5v rail let the side down a little.
Now for the bad stuff....GET THAT GOD FORSAKEN GORILLA OFF THE PSU. On the packaging I can forgive, but I cant really see anybody wanting a primate peeping back at them through a windowed PC case. It looks ugly, it could cost Silver Power some sales from enthusiasts who put vanity next to performance and it just made me want to *facepalm*. Of course you can always rip the label off, but getting it through an RMA without any raised eyebrows may not be so easy.
At the end of the day, the Silver Power 750w is a bloody bargin. Sure it doesn't have the good looks that some of its competition posess, but the performance more than makes up for it.
The Good
- Superb voltage Stability
- Above 80PLUS Silver level efficiency.
- Ripple? What Ripple.
- Lovely ribbon-style modular cables
- Capable of punching almost 200w above its weight.
The Mediocre
- Quite easy to plug molex/sata connectors into PCI-e sockets....eek
The Bad
- Ugly packaging and specs label on unit.
Thanks to Silver Power for the sample today, discuss our results n the forums.

E6 Processing with Expired Chemistries
15 28 Share TweetOne of the unexpected joys of homemade processing: using expired chemistries.
We love expired film and expired cameras, so we could love expired chemistries, right?
Using a Jobo ATL3 for some time now, I progressively observed some strange results with my E6 processes. I suspect that the reversal bath or the bleach (which took a dark orange tint) to be responsible.
So, as you can see in the gallery, things are going a bit wrong. A strange orange tint instead of clear whites, weird edges around lights in long exposures, confusion between positive or negative image, some unpredictable bursts of contrasts, and long dirty marks like if the film hadn't been rinsed properly (but it was).
Furthermore, I noticed that Kodak films were more sensitive to expired chemistries than Fuji films, which is surprising as I use Kodak chemistries…
Anyway, if you ever have the chance to get expired chemistries don't hesitate, just try them!

A hemisphere of 5,500 white blocks occupies the air, each hanging from above in a pattern which repeats in order and disorder. Pixels play over the physical blocks as an emulsion of digital light within the physical space, producing a habitat for digital forms to exist in our world.
A group of external projectors penetrate the volume of cubes with pixel-rays, until every single one of the cubes becomes coated with pixels. By scanning with structured light, each pixel receives a set of known information, such as its absolute 3d position within the volume, and the identity of the block that it lives on.
The spectator is invited to study a boundary line between the digital and natural worlds, to see the limitations of how the 2 spaces co-exist. The aesthetic engine spans these digital and physical realms. Volumetric imagery is generated digitally as a cloud of discontinuous surfaces, which are then applied through the video projectors onto the polymer blocks. By rendering figurations of imaginary digital forms into the limiting error-driven physical system, the system acts as an agency of abstraction by redefining and grading the intentions of imaginary forms through its own vocabulary.
The flow of light in the installation creates visual mass. The spectator's balance is shifted by this visceral movement causing a kinaesthetic reaction. For digital to exist in the real world, it must suffer its rules, and gain its possibilities. The sparse physical nature of the installation allows for the digital form to create a continuous manifold within the space across the discreet blocks, whilst also passing through each block as a continuous pocket of physical space.
The polymer blocks are engineered for both diffusive/translucent properties and to have a reflective/projectable response to the pixel-rays. This way a block can act as a site for illumination or for imagery.
The incomplete form of the hemisphere becomes extinct at its base, but extends through a reflection below, and therein becomes complete. It takes inspiration from nature, whilst becoming an artefact of technology.
Permanently installed in Nakdong river cultural centre gallery in Busan, Republic of Korea.

March 23, 2014 - I purchased Green Tea Lemon Grass & Mint Rosemary. They smell delicious! I was sniffing them soap bars non-stop! I had trouble putting them away! Unfortunately, I haven't had the opportunity to try these bars of soap. I purchased these bars of soap because I like the natural ingredients & they are "handmade by All Pure Nature, a women-owned business in Ghana..." I am done with doing business with greedy corporations. I am a non-retail, shop green, for the greater good, non-profit organization woman. I am really looking forward to trying these soap bars soon.
January 8, 2014 - I bought the cinnamon/orange as a gift for my nephew's significant other. She loves everything about it! I'll be ordering more for sure.

Letters to the Editor: 07.22.12
Andrea Montalvo-Hamid
Thanks to all who rallied for Winrock Park
I wanted to write this letter to thank everyone involved with the effort to save Winrock Park. Thanks to fantastic leadership by Monica Rawlings and her husband, Keith, our group, the Friends of Winrock Park, successfully removed our community treasure from the list of parks to be repurposed. Thank you, Monica, for bringing this to our attention swiftly and for rallying the community around you! Also, thank you to Willa Dean and Sally for attending the City Council meeting with me on Tuesday; I think we did a great job!
Thank you to the Caller-Times and KZTV-10 for attending our meeting and bringing this issue to the public.
Thank you to the volunteers for dedicating your time to this issue by going door-to-door collecting signatures; and thank you to everyone who signed our petition and liked our Facebook page. I would also like to thank our city council members Larry Elizondo, Nelda Martinez, Chris Adler and David Loeb for taking time out of their evenings to attend our meeting and support our community effort. Finally, I would like to thank the administration from Corpus Christi Parks and Recreation, Michael Morris and Stacie Talbert, for attending the meeting and hearing our concerns about the future of our park. I am glad you had the chance to see how important this park is to us.
Thanks to you all, my daughter can continue to ride her pink car to the park she loves.

Street repair money already available
We already have money for street repairs. Since all the money belongs to me, the taxpayer, I'm going to reach in to my RTA pocket and move several million dollars to my city pocket. Then I'm going to start letting contracts immediately to fix the streets.
Every time I see a big passenger bus go by with 5 or fewer people I'm going to reach in again and pull out $100,000 for streets to encourage using transportation sized for the passenger load. Regarding the passengers who have special needs to get to the grocery, doctor's office, etc., is it really necessary to provide a driver, with a bus running, waiting at the residence? Then there is the trip to the destination with the bus waiting and then a ride home. Why can't that be done by the RTA calling a cab for the ride?
Phillip Garner
Wasted resources
The city wants to raise our water rates. It's not really that much. It is, however, getting old. In one breath they say they are going to sell our water to the oil fracking people. Then they want to tax us for it. Then they fund two water parks that use our water.
All our streets are falling apart, so they want to build more parks to add to the ones that they can't keep up right now. So we have to scrape to pay crossing guards but you can go pay to jump in the water that you own and slide around.
It's a crying shame but every cent raised is stolen before it ever does any good, then the ones who steal it complain about its being raised in the first place.
Drought is every where and temperatures are climbing yet the powers-that-be go out of their way to waste as many natural resources as they can. Don't worry, they probably already have a synthetic way to replace all we need. But of course the same people will be charging everyone out the nose for it.

Analysis: What the decline in bid protests really means
Experts say the 2 percent drop in the number of contracting complaints to GAO disproves the theory that as federal spending drops, contractors will file more protests. Ralph White, the managing associate general counsel for procurement law at GAO, said agencies and vendors have a better understanding than ever about their likelihood of success.

Is the budget deal the final word on contractor compensation?
Tucked away inside the bipartisan budget deal announced with much fanfare this week is a proposal limiting the maximum level contractors can charge the government to pay the salaries of their top executives to nearly half of what it is currently. But it may not be the final word on the issue on the sticky issue of contractor compensation. the budget deal's proposed changes to taxpayer-funded contractor salaries are competing with another piece of bipartisan legislation currently before Congress. The annual Defense Authorization Act seeks to lower the compensation limit but by far less than the budget deal.

Despite a big policy push from the administration, some agencies have lagged in implementing guidance dealing with interagency contracting, according to a recent report from the Government Accountability Office. Still, GAO said the creation of a policy framework by the Office of Federal Procurement Policy had gone a long way toward ameliorating some of the issues that landed interagency contracting on the watchdog agency's high-risk list eight years ago, such as duplication and unclear lines of authority between agencies.

What does "Humanistic" mean?
05/11/2011Humanistic thought holds that people are active agents in a process of constantly engaging their humanity, instead of passive mechanisms or parts upon which doctors, workplaces, and systems act.
Humanistic thought holds that people cannot be reduced to components, but instead are whole beings, with intrinsic dignity, whose subjective experiences must be valued.
To really understand people, you can't look at an MRI image. You can't look at a test score. You can't refuse to talk about anything except "behavior." Deep down, we all know that.
To really understand people, you have to grapple with emotions; with love, with desire, with anger, with fear. You have to deal with aspirations: with hope, with ambition, with self-actualization.
To really understand people, you have to look at the systems they participate in, the cultures they come from, and the way their internal worlds connect with the collective structures around them.
Throughout the history of ideas, many movements have refused to do this because the human experience is rich and troublesome, messy and complex. They have sought to use methods that offer yes-or-no answers, and in so doing tried to reduce people to charts and binary functions. People are economic actors, or the sum of their political decisions, their faith community, or the neurotransmitters running through their brains - and nothing more.
The humanistic perspective emerged out of a movement to approach people as they truly are, and to try to understand them on their own terms. It asks the big questions - what is the human spirit? What binds us together? What does it mean to be alive? - because these are the questions that many people are trying to answer.
A humanistic university not only encourages students to ask those questions, in a meaningful way that is relevant to their lives and work, but teaches that way; treating its students as unique individuals with unique talents, passions, and life's work, rather than as cookie-cutter "customers" to be loaded up with pre-fab knowledge and sent along. A humanistic university empowers students to make choices that are relevant and meaningful, and teaches them how to take their lives and careers to the next level. A humanistic university believes that education and service go hand in hand, and that results can best be measured by the way they improve the lives of real people. It focuses on qualitative research as much as quantitative, on human potential as much as profit, and on spirit as much as mind.
Saybrook is one of the world's leading centers for scholarship in the humanistic tradition. The Journal of Humanistic Psychology, one of the movement's leading publication, has always been edited by a Saybrook faculty member.
Today, Saybrook University's mission, vision, and programs remain grounded in a belief in human potential and the conviction that all human beings are capable of personal growth and achieving higher states of consciousness.

Billy Ray To Pen Somali Pirate FilmBy Eric Eisenberg 2009-10-23 10:45:21 comments
For those that don't know or follow the news on a regular basis, Somalia is basically hell on Earth. Not only is the crime rate worthy of any traveler messing their pants, but there is no formal judicial system or government. Oh, and did I mention pirates? Yeah, there are pirates. Think less Johnny Depp, more kidnapping and shooting you.
Some of you might recall a situation earlier this year involving said pirates, a hijacked ship, navy snipers and three well-targeted bullets (here is a clip from South Park to refresh your memory). It only took Columbia Pictures a few weeks to secure the film rights to the story, and now a writer has been attached to the project. According to Variety, Billy Ray (not Cyrus) has been tapped to write the script based on the experience of Richard Phillips, the rescued ship captain, based on Phillips' memoir, which is due out next April. Ray's previous works range from the overlooked State of Play, the mediocre Flightplan and the utter-waste-of-time Suspect Zero (but blame should probably go to Zak Penn for that one). As far as news stories go, this one was probably a good choice, but hopefully the whole story arc won't be overshadowed by what should be a tremendously climactic conclusion. I say go for it... as long as there is no Balloon Boy movie in the near future. Also, personal message to Billy Ray: ever think of going by Bill? Back to top

Three Hospitalized in Wisconsin Building Fire
MADISON, Wis. --
Three people were hurt and more than 100 people have been displaced after a fire in a community housing building near the University of Wisconsin campus in Madison on Friday night.
Dane County 911 supervisor Chas Klauer said that the fire at the building, located in the 300 block of North Brooks Street, began at about 6:30 p.m., and firefighters left the scene at about 9 p.m. The area is located between Johnson Street and University Avenue.
The Madison Fire Department said that three people were hurt in the blaze and were taken to the hospital. The victims' conditions are currently unknown, WISC-TV reported.
Department officials said that all residents escaped the building.
Porchlight Inc. operates the building as a community housing complex. Porchlight Inc. executive director Steven Schooler said that about 101 residents live in the building. Firefighters had to help the building residents, some of whom are elderly, while dealing with very cold conditions outdoors. Schooler said that the fire apparently started in a group kitchen.
Investigators said that they believe the blaze started on the building's second floor, but wouldn't say where, WISC-TV reported.
All residents were put on Madison Metro buses to protect them from the elements. Klauer said the Madison Fire Department was working with the Red Cross to try to find shelter for those displaced. Schooler said he's unsure if all residents will be allowed back in the building.
Officials said that they will inspect the building to check its integrity after the fire.

Episode Title: "No, but I knew your pig" is Josh Reston's reply to Sadie Entwistle, a farmer in West Virginia, after she asks him if she is supposed to know him.
Ellen: Patty,I was wondering if I could sit in on your meeting with Detective Huntley?
Patty: Why?
Ellen: I thought it would be valuable. I don't have any experience with criminal law.
Patty: I don't think Mr. Purcell would be comfortable with you there.
Ellen: Okay.
Patty: And I'm not running a law school.
Detective Huntley: You know, forgive me. I'm just stuck on why someone would break into a house twice and not steal anything.
Daniel: There wasn't enough time to steal anything. There was barely enough time to kill her [my wife].
Daniel: (to Detective Huntley) You find that ring, and you find my wife's killer.
Daniel: Don't manage me. I'm not a goddamned child!
Patty: Stop acting like one! Just shut your mouth and do as I say.
Polygrapher: Ever think about killing your wife?
Daniel: No.
Polygrapher: It's not a crime to think about doing bad things. If it were, I'd be in jail.
Hollis Nye: IBC was Patty's first case after she started her own firm. The stakes were very high. Losing was not an option for her.
Ellen: Is it ever?
Patty: People have a tendency to talk when they're behind bars.

Counting down to the Early Notification Deadline
By Jessica Daniels On November 14, 2011 · Leave a Comment · In Fletcher's Admissions Policies, General Admissions News
I'm still having trouble believing that October is over, so imagine my surprise that the first application deadline for September 2012 admission is tomorrow! Our newly selected student members of the Admissions Committee are already busy reading files, grabbing two last week and two today — a pace that will soon be unsustainably (laughably) slow. (I think they know that, but we're glad to allow them to breathe for a few days more.) Time for me to get going, too!
For the majority of you who have not yet submitted your EN application, it's not too late to avoid running up against the precise deadline of Tuesday, November 15, 11:59 p.m. EST (GMT -5). Submit your application today, and you can pat yourself on the head that you were early. Note that the piece that must arrive by the deadline is your online application. It's preferred that your recommendations, transcripts, and test scores arrive by tomorrow, too, but please don't hold your application simply because your professor hasn't zapped through a letter.
Once you've submitted your part of the total file, you can monitor our work through the Graduate Application Management System (find details here). Fortunately for you ENers, we'll receive a very manageable number of applications tomorrow, and we can compile files much more quickly than in January. In fact, the whole turnaround for the EN process is super rapid. You'll hear from us well before the end of December (exact date still TBD).
Finally, the decision options for Early Notification fall in three groups. We may choose to admit applicants (occasionally with a condition, such as additional foreign language study); to defer the decision to the spring, when we'll look at the application in the context of the larger pile; or to deny. Last year was the first year we denied some applicants and, while I appreciate how disappointing this is, we believe it's better for the applicant to have clear information that can be used in deciding which other schools to apply to in January.

I ask about her child, and she gives me the sanitized dope. Finally she gets to the real reason she called.
"How have you coped all these years?" she asks.
