Alexis Carrel
The atmosphere of libraries, lecture rooms and laboratories is dangerous to those who shut themselves up in them too long. It separates us from reality like a fog.
Alexis CarrelReligion brings to man an inner strength, spiritual light, and ineffable peace.
Alexis CarrelHard conditions of life are indispensable to bringing out the best in human personality.
Alexis CarrelTo what extent is any given man morally responsible for any given act? We do not know.
Alexis CarrelIntuition comes very close to clairvoyance; it appears to be the extrasensory perception of reality.
Alexis CarrelThe love of beauty in its multiple forms is the noblest gift of the human cerebrum.
Alexis CarrelEveryone makes a greater effort to hurt other people than to help himself.
Alexis CarrelAll of us, at certain moments of our lives, need to take advice and to receive help from other people.
Alexis CarrelIn man, the things which are not measurable are more important than those which are measurable.
Alexis CarrelAll great men are gifted with intuition. They know without reasoning or analysis, what they need to know.
Alexis CarrelThe quality of life is more important than life itself.
Alexis CarrelThe most efficient way to live reasonably is every morning to make a plan of one's day and every night to examine the results obtained.
Alexis CarrelTo accomplish our destiny it is not enough to merely guard prudently against road accidents. We must also cover before nightfall the distance assigned to each of us.
Alexis CarrelThe first duty of society is to give each of its members the possibility of fulfilling his destiny. When it becomes incapable of performing this duty it must be transformed.

people and structures. For example, if a particular project is observed to generate M ≥ 2 earthquakes (i.e., the probability in cell 1A becomes 1 for that project), decisions can be made on pumping characteristics to minimize the probabilities of shaking felt at the surface (cell 2A) and of strong shaking (cell 3A).
Third, the calculated probabilities of shaking felt at the surface (cell 2A), of strong shaking (cell 3A), and of structures and people being affected (cell 4A) can be generalized from those for one project (as depicted in Table 5.2) to forecast the total number of induced seismicity cases that will occur and the number of structures and people affected. If detailed statistical data can be obtained for cells 1B and 2B, this generalization can account for details on forecast locations of projects, volumes and other characteristics of pumping, and proximity to inhabited areas. The estimated numbers of people and structures affected can then become the basis for decisions on whether and how to minimize the impacts of induced seismicity.
Directed research could support development of these steps for the quantification of hazard and risk, with the overall goal of integrating these steps to improve our capability to predict induced events and their consequences. Chapter 6 develops these ideas further by discussing best practices and protocols to avoid or mitigate the impacts of induced seismicity during energy development projects.

American Gods by Neil Gaiman,
Unabridged, 20 hours, performed by George Guidall,
Harper Audio
America is not a good country for gods, according to a character from Neil Gaiman's American Gods. Yet
there are many of them... not only the ones that immigrants brought with them from every country in the world,
but also the new ones; gods of the computer and television and others.
Shadow is a man who is looking forward to the end of a three-year residency in prison. He wants nothing more than
to return to his life, but this is not in the cards for him. A few days before his release, he learns that his
wife has been killed in a car accident. Immediately after, he meets Wednesday, a grifter who offers Shadow a
job. Having nothing left to lose, Shadow accepts. Thus begins Shadow's odyssey across America, meeting gods
and cultural heroes, both old and new.
I could compare Neil Gaiman to Harlan Ellison and his intense imagery, or Clive Barker and his outré plots or
Roger Zelazny and his dealings with the gods. This mythology is unique in my experience, though, and I wholeheartedly recommend it.
To the excellent writing, add George Guidall's brilliant performance. The production quality is excellent, and
Guidall is one of the finest performers in the business. The combination made this the best audio I've heard this year.
(NOTE: American Gods was #2 on SF Site's Best Books of 2001 list.)
Star Wars: The Approaching Storm by Alan Dean Foster,
Abridged, 6 hours, performed by Alexander Adams,
Random House Audio
Just hearing the Star Wars theme at the beginning of this audio makes my pulse
quicken. In 1977, when the first Star Wars movie was released, I was 9 years old,
and back then I thought it was a beautiful thing. In fact, I still do.
Along with most folks like me, I greeted The Phantom Menace with much anticipation. I was both
delighted and disappointed with the film; the look was unparalleled, the feel was definitely
Star Wars, but there was just no depth to it. Even so, I look forward to the next
installment. Star Wars seems to be a thing hardwired in my psyche. If George Lucas makes it, I will go.
Star Wars: The Approaching Storm is a novel set right before the events in the
upcoming Episode II: Attack of the Clones. Obi-wan Kenobi (and his Padawan learner Anakin, now
a teen) and a new Jedi character named Luminara Unduli (and her Padawan learner, Barriss Offee) are dispatched
to a planet called Ansion, where a feud must be resolved between the two indigenous species. If they fail, Ansion
may withdraw, starting a chain reaction of secessions that could cripple the Republic.
The story is quick-paced and enjoyable. Alexander Adams is a fine reader, deftly bringing to life the
Star Wars world. His narration, tastefully enhanced with Star Wars sound and music, drew me right
in. Overall, I found it a very entertaining production.
Not to be missed is a scene where the two Jedi and their apprentices are asked to prove that they not only have
ability, but also "inner essence". The four, led by Barriss Offee, take turns demonstrating the existence of
their souls. The scene was picturesque and beautiful, and is the scene that I will remember when recalling this audiobook.
2000x: By His Bootstraps by Robert A. Heinlein,
Hollywood Theater of the Ear, starring Richard Dreyfuss,
Approx. 40 minutes in length
I've also been listening to the Beyond 2000 series of audio dramas from Audible.com (much more on them
next month...). Last year, I listed 2000x's production of 'Repent, Harlequin!' said the Ticktockman among
my favorite audios of all time. This one is just as excellent.
By His Bootstraps is a classic story written by Robert A. Heinlein and originally published in 1941. It
is a story of time travel that continually folds back upon itself, over and over, until it's amazing conclusion.
Richard Dreyfuss turns in a wonderful performance that makes this show an entertaining and wonderful gem that I will listen to again and again.
Also received this month from Harper Audio is Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451. It's unabridged and read by
Bradbury himself, which makes this a special treatment of this classic novel of censorship.
Scott discovered the world of SF audio years ago, when he spent hours a day in his car. His commute has since shortened considerably, but his love for audio remains. By trade, he's an electrical engineer. Aside from reading and writing science fiction, his hobbies include community theater, where he can often be found behind the soundboard or (much less often) on the stage. |

I love how the Globalist warmer/scaremongers are trying to use the cute Polar Bears as their logos to help them gain the power to regulate industry worldwide..
The photo that Gore shows in his propoganda film was later revealed to have been taken in August in a region where there is never ice in August. The girl who took the photo and donated it to an environmental group came forward about it.
From what I've gathered, there is little evidence to suggest that Polar Bears are in tremendous danger due to climate change. As was noted in the excellent BBC doc THE GREAT GLOBAL WARMING SWINDLE, there have been periods where the global climate has been higher than it is now, with smaller glaciers, and we still have the bears with us today.
You can watch the Global Warming Hoax video on Google video I think.
I don't mean to be a douche here, mind you, I've just been investigating the issue on my own recently, so it's hard to resist yapping about it.
I like the blog, btw. - 4:15 PM

Thanks, Luke.
I'll look for 'The Great Global Warming Swindle'.
When you say "there have been periods where the global climate has been higher than it is now, with smaller glaciers", you seem to indicate that you acknowledge things are warming up. They are. Look for news stories about Arctic ice melting and a new shipping lane opening up. Whether the cause of this warming is the result of the burning of fossil fuels or a natural fluctuation in the climate history of the planet, I think you have to admit that IT IS HAPPENING.
It is making life difficult for polar bears, whose populations are in decline. I am in favor of giving legal protection to polar bears (placing a ban on trophy hunting, etc) because their habitat is disappearing. - 11:26 AM

This cartoon is so damn touching.
I broke my heart to know how much Polar Bears are suffering due to human beings acts. Then, not even Generic Viagra will be able to brig them back.

Metallica have stepped in to replace fellow north Californians Green Day as headliners at the Voodoo Music + Arts Experience festival in New Orleans, Louisiana over Halloween weekend.
The heavy rockers have taken the punk trio's Saturday night slot on the bill after the 21 Guns hitmakers were forced to pull the plug on their appearance due to singer Billie Joe Armstrong's substance abuse issues, which landed him in rehab last month.
The set will be Metallica's first at the New Orleans festival.
Drummer Lars Ulrich says, "We are excited to be part of our first ever Voodoo Music + Arts Experience. Our good friends and fellow Bay Area residents Green Day had to unfortunately cancel their plans to be there, so we are more than happy to fill in for them in our own unique way. We're hoping we can fill those very large shoes and do them proud."
Green Day drummer Tre Cool announced his band would not be playing at the festival earlier this week, stating, "We had to put the life of our friend in front of everything."
Armstrong is still recovering from a health crisis which led to a meltdown at a show in Las Vegas.
The rocker checked himself into a treatment facility the following day for substance abuse issues.
On Friday, Warner Bros. Records chairman Rob Cavallo, Green Day's longtime producer, released an update statement about the punk icon, and revealed, "His rehab is no joke. He's under medical supervision for a while to get him clean."
Cavallo fears more shows will be cancelled to accommodate the star's recovery: "His doctors are still evaluating. All I can say is I don't know if we'll see him before or after Christmas. It's basically undetermined when he'll be back."

Steve's Lineup Toy | |
To use the Lineup Toy:
A Simple Lineup algorithm
In baseball, runs are generally scored by players getting on base and other players
knocking them in. So it makes sense to put the best players at getting on base in
front of the players who are best at getting them home.
The players at the top of the batting order get more plate appearances than the players
lower in the order. The higher a player's OBP, the fewer outs that player makes. Since the
length of your game is limited by 27 outs, putting high OBP guys on top of a lineup gives
your team more plate appearances as a whole, and more chances to score runs.
This suggests a fairly simple-minded strategy for constructing a reasonable lineup:
Now, this might lead to some pretty strange-looking creations. But like I said, it's
a simple-minded method. The Lineup Toy doesn't take into account factors like speed
and stolen bases. Take the Lineup Toy's suggestion and use some common sense to
tweak it.
Tango's Lineup method
Tango's favored measure of batter quality is wOBA,
weighted on base average.
The algorithm employed here is a very simple-minded application of the full-on Tom Tango treatment.
Read his site, especially this thread
for more authoratative information.
Tango's analysis, based on Markov Chain methods, are necessary to measure
the efficiencies of actual batting orders. RC27 may not accurately reflect
the differences in these lineup creation methods.
This is Version 3 of the Lineup Toy. You can find Version 1 here, and Version 2 here.
If you'd like to discuss the Lineup Toy, leave a comment on my
Lineup Toy blog entry or
Email me, please.
Thanks for stopping by,
The Simple Lineup Toy uses On-Base Percentage (OBP), Slugging Percentage (Slg)
and On-Base plus Slugging Percentage (OPS) to come up with a suggested lineup.
1. Put the best OPS in 3rd
2. Put the best remaining Slg in 4th
3. Put the best remaining OBP's in 1st and 2nd (with the better Slg in 2nd)
4. Arrange the remaining players in order of descending Slg
The "Tango Lineup" uses the principles inspired by Tom Tango in
"The Book: Playing the Percentages in Baseball". In "The Book", Tango
suggests putting your best batters 1st, 2nd and 4th in the order, the next two batters in 3rd and 5th,
and the rest 6th-9th in order of descending quality.
RC27 is the estimated runs scored for 27 outs of the given lineup. It's computed by
figuring out how many plate appearances each player will get on average; scaling
the player's stats to that number of plate appearances; adding the stats up to produce
a team's total bases and on-base percentage; and multiplying those to come up with
a simple Runs Created figure.

Adaptive LQ control: Conflict between identification and control
Polderman, J.W. (1989) Adaptive LQ control: Conflict between identification and control. Linear Algebra and its Applications, 122-12 . pp. 219-244. ISSN 0024-3795
945kB |
Abstract: | We consider one of the fundamental limitations of indirect adaptive control based on the minimization of a quadratic cost criterion and the certainty equivalence principle. We show that the interaction between (closed-loop) identification and optimal control is conflictive in the sense that almost all possible limits of the sequence of parameter estimates induce suboptimal behavior of the adaptively controlled system. |

Renowned German photographer Thomas Struth (b. 1954) trained under Gerhard Richter and Bernd and Hilla Becher at the famous Kunstakademie Düsseldorf. Struth's images of cities confront the viewer with an architectural scenery, characterized by an oblique vantage point, a clarity and neutrality. Since the late seventies, Struth has been known for his architectural and urban photographs, portraits, landscapes, and museum interiors. Trained first in painting, he took up photography in 1974 while studying at the Dusseldorf Academy of Fine Arts. Initially photographing people in the streets of Dusseldorf and other cities, he later drew on this experience in his early black & white street and cityscapes, which began in 1977. This body of work lead to his first solo exhibition at P.S.1 in 1978. Struth went on to produce similar series in Paris (1979), Rome (1984), Edinburgh (1985), and Tokyo (1986), among other cities.

The following Figure shows the XSLT APIs in action.
A TransformerFactory object is instantiated and used to create a Transformer. The source object is the input to the transformation process. A source object can be created from a SAX reader, from a DOM, or from an input stream.
Similarly, the result object is the result of the transformation process. That object can be a SAX event handler, a DOM, or an output stream.
When the transformer is created, it can be created from a set of transformation instructions, in which case the specified transformations are carried out. If it is created without any specific instructions, then the transformer object simply copies the source to the result.
The XSLT APIs are defined in the packages shown in Table .
Package |
Description |
javax.xml.transform |
Defines the TransformerFactory and Transformer classes, which you use to get an object capable of doing transformations. After creating a transformer object, you invoke its transform() method, providing it with an input (source) and output (result). |
javax.xml.transform.dom |
Classes to create input (source) and output (result) objects from a DOM. |
javax.xml.transform.sax |
Classes to create input (source) objects from a SAX parser and output (result) objects from a SAX event handler. |
javax.xml.transform.stream |
Classes to create input (source) objects and output (result) objects from an I/O stream. |

Assessor(s): | Enrique La Marca, Claudia Azevedo-Ramos |
Reviewer(s): | Global Amphibian Assessment Coordinating Team (Simon Stuart, Janice Chanson, Neil Cox and Bruce Young) |
Justification: Listed as Least Concern in view of its wide distribution, tolerance of a degree of habitat modification, presumed large population, and because it is unlikely to be declining fast enough to qualify for listing in a more threatened category. |
Range Description: | This species is known from the Guianan Orinoco drainage of Venezuela north to the Río Orinoco (in Bolívar and Amazonas States), east into Guyana to the Essequibo River, south into extreme northern Brazil, and west into eastern Amazonian Colombia. In Venezuela it has been recorded from sea level up to 500m asl. |

Range Map: | Click here to open the map viewer and explore range. |
Population: | It is a common species. |
Population Trend: | Stable |
Habitat and Ecology: | This brightly coloured diurnal frog is found in leaf-litter, on the ground, on open rocks, near rivers and rivulets, under logs and on trunks of fallen or inclined vegetation in tropical rainforests. During the dry season, specimens congregate under rocks and fallen tree-trunks. Eggs are laid out of water, and the tadpoles are then carried to streams where they develop further. It is adaptable to some habitat disturbance. |
Systems: | Terrestrial; Freshwater |
Major Threat(s): | Agriculture, logging and fire are threats to the species' habitat. It is also in the international pet trade. |
Conservation Actions: | Some populations live within protected areas south of the Orinoco river in Venezuela. It is considered in the Venezuelan Red Data Book as Lower Risk, Least Concern. It is listed under Appendix II of CITES (listed 22-10-1987), and in the European Community, it is listed under regulation 338/97, Annex B, listed on 01-06-1997 (Walls 1994; Cites web-site). It breeds easily in captivity. |

Subject: | English |
Minimum Credits: | 3.0 Maximum Credits: 3.0 Hours per week: 3.0 |
Forensic linguistics explores the complex relationship between linguistics and the law. The course will consider critically the role of language and its power in the legal process. It will also examine how oral and written argumentation can be used or misused to the disadvantage of social groups and thus to the detriment of minorities, including women, children and nonnative speakers of English. The involvement of linguists as expert witnesses in the legal process will also be explored. |

Stanley 3/8 in. Rotator Ratchet
Best Uses
Comments about 3/8 in. Rotator Ratchet:
It took me 3 hours to remove a bolt on a starter in my boat. The regular ratchet would only allow to move the handle 2 clicks at a time before hitting the oil pan. I was able to reinstall the same bolt with this ratchet in 5 minutes! I had to modify the handle as I needed to extend the ratchet 3' under the engine from the front. This is one of the best tool I have purchased in the last 10 years!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

system interacts with hazard vulnerability and disaster event characteristics in determining levels of disaster impacts as outcomes of the model. The unity of hazards and disaster research that the committee considers essential is thereby revealed. The interactions among the five core topics of hazards and disaster research—introduced in Figure 1.1 and depicted more pointedly in Figure 1.2's process model—are important on both theoretical and practical grounds. Both theoretically and empirically, hazard vulnerability, hazard mitigation, disaster preparedness, emergency response, and disaster recovery are mutually related. Indeed, they are components of a highly complex but comprehendible response structure. Practically, collective actions related to these constructs and their interactions increase or decrease the human harm and social disruption of disaster as the committee has defined that term. Thus, research on hazards and disasters has important implications for both basic science and public policy.
Both chronological time and social time are essential constructs in hazards and disaster research. As depicted in Figure 1.2, chronological time is linear, unidirectional, and readily calibrated using standard physical measurements. Chronological time allows for the partitioning of collective actions by time phases of disaster events (pre-impact, trans-impact, post-impact) and the examination of their interactions. In chronological time, pre-disaster vulnerability assessments influence hazard mitigation and disaster preparedness decisions under more routine, pre-impact circumstances. The trans-impact period constitutes the time immediately prior to and during an actual event when specific hazard mitigation and preparedness interventions are set in motion. Such planned interventions intersect with improvised emergency response and recovery activities during and after the event has occurred. Chronological time is also an essential tool for making comparisons between disasters in terms of such characteristics as frequency, predictability, length of forewarning, and duration of impact.
The scientific value of chronological time is unquestionable and taken for granted. Yet its value for analytical purposes is not unlimited; and thus, Figure 1.2 calls for a complementary treatment of social time. Social time is more complex than chronological time, but the concept is very useful for expressing the singularity of hazards and disaster research. The distinction between chronological and social time has heretofore rarely been mentioned by the hazard and disaster research community (see Forrest, 1993; Quarantelli, 1998:255-256), let alone seriously examined (for a notable exception, see Bankoff, 2004). The committee thinks that the distinction has scientific value and directly informs its work (Zerubavel, 1981, 1997, 2003).

Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc in variable proportions. It is a medium used for both utilitarian items and objects of artistic merit. Today, with the high cost of copper, almost anything made of brass is collectible. The items prior to 1950 are considered to be the the most desirable at this time.

Posted March 30, 2011Senior Rebekah Childers, biblical text major from Abilene, had a rare opportunity to visit Mt. Sinai this semester. She and her father, Dr. Jeff Childers, professor in the Graduate School of Theology, took a joint research trip to Egypt, touring Cairo before traveling to the holy mountain. For both of them, the trip was a perfect blend of scholarship, tourism and spending time together. Read more about the Childers' trip here.

This is a really, really nice kit. I've only owned it for about two months or so, and it's been quite serviceable and enjoyable to use. It's a GREAT value! My only wonder is how long it will last, but for most of the light-duty work I intend to do with it, I see no reason why it won't endure for a quite long time. Note of caution: I've had several similar devices, and I think I've learned my lesson regarding battery charging: it is NOT good to keep these things on a charger all the time! Eventually, the batteries just give out due to being constantly charging and generating heat, something that inexpensive ni-cad battery devices seem to have happen (I don't believe that's the case with lithium-ion batteries, but those are way more expensive). The assortment of included bits is extraordinary! Really happy with this kit!

I must have got a bad one because mine will not hold a charge. I will fully charge it overnight, unplug it in the morning and that evening when I go to use it the battery is dead. Work ok the first hour or so after coming off the charger or plugged in but that is it. It was a gift so by the time I first used it, it was past 30 days to return. The bit selection is pretty good but they are not high quality, but worth the price... it the screwdriver worked.
Thanks for the honest feedback! We guarantee satisfaction on all of our products. Please be sure to contact our customer service team so we can get this unit swapped out for a good one!

This is a fantastic small driver kit. Complete with sturdy box, decent driver and a plethora of bits it is great. Another great thing, the bits are held well in place with thick/dense foam & is labeled, a great touch so you can keep track of them. Lastly for the price f about $20 it was A STEAL!!!!

The only problem I have encountered is The Charge light when fully charged should turn from red to green, it does not. I left it plugged in way in excess of the suggested time. Plugging it back in snd waiting still does not change. I will try to run the battery down to zero and see if that will fix it, or is it a manufacturing deffect?
