How to troubleshoot common jailbreak issues on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
I just tried jailbreaking but after it I opened Cydia. Then it had a loading sign. When it was done it went back to home screen, but almost everything was missing! Music, mail, settings. I think all that was left over was all apps and weather, reminders, and gmail. Any ideas why this happens? I used absinthe, and I'm restoring my iPod now.
Hi there, I discovered your blog by way of Google while looking for a related matter, your site got here up, it looks good. I've added to my favourites|added to bookmarks.

Thread: A new Pope...

1) Anti-gay marriage and adoption. Personally, I think that allowing a kid to be raised by the state instead of allowing adoption is discrimination against children.
2) Anti-abortion and even anti-contraception.
3) I'm going to assume he believes that divorce isn't possible in the eyes of God.
I'm not surprised by any of this stuff, but to call him a liberal is beyond silly. My mouth dropped when I read your post earlier.
Why would liberals have a problem with Jesuits? They're about helping the poor and even leading by example (being poor themselves).
03-14-2013, 12:56 AMThe Obama Administration: Deny. Deflect. Blame.
I love that you put the term "order" in quotes meaning you don't have a clue about organized religions. There are countless orders in all religions. The Muslims have Shiites and Sunni's. Jews have Orthodox, Conservative, and Reform. Christianity has Catholics, Baptists, Lutheran, Methodist, among others. Even Catholics have different orders; Jesuit and Franciscan. So next time, if you don't have a clue, just shut up.The Obama Administration: Deny. Deflect. Blame.
There are several pieces of scripture that support a chaste life if one feels called to live it.
The disciples *said to Him, "If the relationship of the man with his wife is like this, it is better not to marry." But He said to them, "Not all men can accept this statement, but only those to whom it has been given. For there are eunuchs who were born that way from their mother's womb; and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are also eunuchs who made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. He who is able to accept this, let him accept it."
Now to the unmarried and the widows I say: It is good for them to stay unmarried, as I do. But if they cannot control themselves, they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion.
It seems that Christ thought that celibacy was a greater spiritual state and that Paul reflected that belief. If you read the context of both pieces of scripture you will find that celibacy is not a condition of Christian faith for all but a choice that can be made if the individual feels so inclined.
When Priests accept their ordination they are apparently in agreement with the belief otherwise they would be discouraged from being ordained. The fact that they changed their mind after ordination does not imply that the requirement is bad, it just shows that the Priest didn't think the whole thing through before taking his vows.

If this is such a hard and fast rule, why are they allowing married Anglican priests to serve?"Today, [the American voter] chooses his rulers as he buys bootleg whiskey, never knowing precisely what he is getting, only certain that it is not what it pretends to be." - H.L. Mencken

An imaginative dollhouse right out of the box.
An imaginative dollhouse right out of the box.10/11/11| Megan HornbeckerThere are so many things I love about this house, first it's only $19.99! At that price I was really impressed by the quality. The sturdy cardboard of the reversible nesting boxes and thick glossy furniture/flooring look like they will hold up well with continued use.
The furniture is a snap to assemble. You just punch it out, insert the tabs into the slots, and you are ready to decorate. The table tops and seat cushions are reversible offering multiple options for the furniture. The vibrant walls and flooring along with the modern accessories lend to the "out of the box" approach to creating any design you can imagine.
The best part for me is that you can actually fit everything back in the boxes, making this a truly portable house that you can take anywhere. My 3 1/2-year-old son and I set up these rooms together and his favorite part was decorating with the vinyl clings. I can see this being hours of fun for kids of all ages, and young at heart adults as well.

I ran across this Yahoo article, didn't see the broadcast, but still. . . . . wtf is she thinking?
Per S.E. Cupp (a perported atheist): "I like religion being a check and knowing that my president goes home every night addressing someone above him and not thinking all the power resides right here… Atheists don't have that."
Does that statement make sense coming from a person who supposedly does not believe there is anyone "above him" to address? She's saying it's better/safer to have a leader who ascribes to myth. Do you agree?
Honestly, when I first spotted the headline of the article, I assumed her position was going to be that it's safer to have a religious leader due to the fact that we deal with so many other religious leaders, or something along those lines. . . but this?
p.s. Warm greetings to all my old pals on the forum : )
I am a atheist.
I don't believe in anything supernatural.
I think that the New Agers are as deluded as the religious.
I don't even see the evidence to support acupuncture or chiropractic medicine.
And yet I would not vote for a candidate who claimed to be an atheist.
Anyone naive enough to run for President of a country in which 42 percent of the residents believe that Jesus is coming back by 2040 is not smart enough to govern anything.

MOBO BIOS update
by Dobby - 6/4/07 10:29 PM
Have an old computer which now has 98SE installed, with no problems. It has a Biostar Slot A mobo, with an AMD K7 chip, FX 5700 video card, and 768meg SDRAM. Tried installing XP Pro from clean boot, but will not allow same...numerous errors. Is it possible to update the BIOS to allow XP, or should I just re-install 98SE, and quit wasting my time. I have new machine with XP Pro installed, as well as laptop with Media Center, so it is not needed. Any help would be appreciated.......Dobby.

By Pure Matters
These are some answers to frequently asked questions about pancreatic cancer.
Q: What is the pancreas?
A: The pancreas is a glandular organ, located deep in the abdomen. It is behind the stomach and in front of the spine. The pancreas is about 6 inches long and has a wide head with a body that tapers to a narrow tail. The pancreas makes enzymes and hormones. The enzymes mix with bile to help with the digestion of food, especially fats, sugars, and proteins. The pancreas makes the hormones insulin and glucagon. These hormones help the body control the level of sugar in the blood. Both of these hormones help the body use and store the energy it gets from food.
Q: What is cancer of the pancreas?
A: Pancreatic cancer is cancer that starts in the pancreas. No one is entirely sure why people get this type of cancer. It is thought that normal cells undergo a series of changes, leading to permanent cell changes, and eventually cancer.
Q: What are the different types of pancreatic cancer?
A: Most cancers of the pancreas start in the ducts that carry pancreatic juices. They are called adenocarcinomas. These are less common types of pancreatic cancer.
- Mucinous cystadenocarcinomas
- Acinar cell carcinomas
- Large cell carcinomas
These types are named after the way they look under the microscope. A rare type of pancreatic cancer starts in the cells of the pancreas that make insulin and other hormones. These cells are called islet cells. Cancers that begin in these cells are called islet cell cancers, or endocrine tumors of the pancreas.
Q: What are the symptoms of pancreatic cancer?
A: Pancreatic cancer can grow inside a person's body for a long time before symptoms appear. These are the most common symptoms.
- Indigestion
- Yellow eyes, skin, or nails (jaundice)
- Pain in the abdomen or back
- Weight loss over several months that is unexpected
- Nausea
- Fatigue
- An enlarged abdomen, from a swollen gallbladder
Digestive problems often happen if the tumor blocks the release of pancreatic juices into the intestines. If this happens, people can have problems digesting fatty foods. This can cause stools to be pale, greasy, bulky, and foul smelling. The stools may also float in the toilet.
Q: What is the treatment for pancreatic cancer?
A: Doctors treat pancreatic cancer in these three ways.
- Surgery
- Radiation therapy
- Chemotherapy
People may have these treatments alone or combined.
Q: What is a pancreaticoduodenectomy?
A: This is the most common type of surgery used to remove tumors from the pancreas. It is also called the Whipple procedure. The surgeon removes all of these during the procedure.
- The head of the pancreas (the body of the pancreas may also be removed)
- Distal common bile duct
- Duodenum
- Part of the stomach (possibly)
- Gallbladder
- Lymph nodes near the pancreas
After surgery, bile from the liver, food from the stomach, and digestive juices from the remaining part of the pancreas all enter the small intestine.
Q: Should everyone get a second opinion for a diagnosis of pancreatic cancer?
A: Many people with cancer get a second opinion from another doctor. There are many reasons to get a second opinion. These are some of the reasons.
- The person is not comfortable with the treatment decision.
- The type of cancer is rare.
- There are different ways to treat the cancer.
- The person is not able to see a cancer expert.
Q: How can someone get a second opinion?
A: These are some ways to get a second opinion.
- Talk with a primary doctor. He or she may be able to recommend a specialist. This might include a surgeon, medical oncologist, or radiation oncologist. Sometimes these doctors work together at cancer centers or programs.
- Ask the Cancer Information Service (800-4-CANCER) for help. It can provide treatment facilities, cancer centers, and other programs supported by the National Cancer Institute.
- Get names of doctors from other sources. Check with a local medical society, a nearby hospital, a medical school, local cancer advocacy groups, or other people who have had pancreatic cancer.
- Consult The Official ABMS Directory of Board Certified Medical Specialists. This book from the American Board of Medical Specialists lists doctors by state. It gives their specialty, background, and training. It is available at most public libraries or on the Internet at www.abms.org.
Pancreatic Cancer Statistics
These are 2011 statistics from the American Cancer Society's Facts & Figures about pancreatic cancer:
- About 44,030 people will be told they have pancreatic cancer this year.
- The rate of pancreatic cancer in both men and women has decreased slightly over the past 15 to 25 years.
- Nearly 90 percent of people with cancer of the pancreas are age 55 and older, and more than 70 percent are ages 65 and older.
- African-Americans are more likely to develop pancreatic cancer than whites - the reasons for this are not clear.
- Smokers are two to three times as likely as nonsmokers to get pancreatic cancer.
- An estimated 37,660 Americans will die of pancreatic cancer this year, making it the fourth leading cause of cancer-related death in both men and women.

Nope, not really.. Only what has been reported recently about his workouts for other teams... I'm really not opposed to bringing in unknowns to training camp; who knows, they could turn out alright. Non-guaranteed contracts are a blessing.
Anyone ever hear of this guy?
Nope, not really.. Only what has been reported recently about his workouts for other teams... I'm really not opposed to bringing in unknowns to training camp; who knows, they could turn out alright. Non-guaranteed contracts are a blessing.
Filipino here. I know him very well. We went to the same school (Ateneo de Manila) and came from the same province (Pampanga, PH).
He's a 6' 9" PF that's very athletic and he has good lateral movement. He's skinny though.plus he lacks focus (enough that the coach of our National team didn't include him in the final roster), and slacks on games. He doesn't make a good % of his jumpers (based on his pro career in the PH) but he has good form (IMO).
On a purely athletic standard, he's supposed to be an NBA player. But skillset wise and his character scream like he's not ready. I've always believed that in order for someone from the PH to make it to the NBA, he'd have to dominate the PBA (our pro league). Aguilar didn't do that. Instead, he relied so much on his athleticism (which coupled with his 6' 9" frame made him a giant among dwarves).
Personally, I don't care if he makes it or not. I don't see a future for him in the NBA. He's already been a professional for I think 4 years and he still hasn't devoted enough time to develop his jumper enough so that he's consistent. He hasn't devoted enough time in the gym to build on his frame. This was with the lighter PBA schedule. What more in an 82 games over 5~6 month NBA schedule?
If i was rooting for any PH player to make it to the NBA (I believe there hasn't been a PH born, PH citizen and someone who has PH ancestry that's made it to the NBA. Lots of NBA players have some "PH" blood in them, but it's usually very small like 1/4 or 1/8th), it's Bobby Ray Parks Jr., #34 SG HS Prospect back in 2011 and #117 Nationally back in 2011. He's also set to try out for teams (after the collegiate season is over). So there you have it, if you have any questions, feel free to ask.
BTW, he was teammates with Courtney Lee in Western Kentucky University (he transferred there after 2 years of college in Ateneo).
He can't be that bad. He played for Burger King.

Thanks for posting DD. Seems athletic but nothing spectacular. Camp body.

Lance Thomas 2.0 ?
"I go so hard, I go so mean... I'm so NEW ORLEANS" - Lil' Wayne"We not stopping at no stores man ! We staying on the gas !" - Tyreke Evans
Notice much of the video shows actions where he has alot of space to operate...open floor..slip cuts etc...also consider the caliber of the defense..woah! what defense?...looks like camp body..
1-What does not move is dead.What has speed,and mobilty has more possibilities,more life...quickness creates luck.
2- Your Defense is only as good as your HELP/ROTATING defenders.
3-Games are won while the ball is in the air.
4- You design your roster to win a 7 game series not a one game confrontation.
Seems like he won't be invited to camp, at least initially.

One rockin' workout
A Zumba dance-aerobics class has taken off in the past few weeks among women from pre-teen to middle-age. Led by instructor Caysie Lagrone, it makes use of an unconventional space — a skating rink — to let as many as 80 or more women take part while everybody still has room to slide, stretch and shake their booties.

After breakfast this morning, you'll disembark your cruise ship in Vilshofen.
Meet your driver for a private port transfer from Vilshofen to Salzburg.
Discover Salzburg, known as the town of Mozart's, and its historical buildings that feature interesting architectural attributes. This city was once Mozart's home town and some say you can still hear the tones of the musical 'The Magic Flute' and other famous compositions sounding from Salzburg's alleyways and historic walls. Your private guide will provide with insight into the Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque aspects of the city as Mozart saw it. You will end the tour with a visit to the newly reopened Mozart Residence on Makart Square. The lodging, also referred to as "the dancing master's house" (Tanzmeisterhause) was first inhabited by a dancing master that educated youngsters, taught them how to dance and behave, before Mozart moved in.

Comments about Salsa Cowbell MD 2 Handlebar:
I installed these on both my bikes. First installed on my Surly Long haul Trucker, I use for commuting. Loved them so much I installed them on my Cannondale Synapse that I ride for faster road rides. I ride about 100+ miles a week and as an older rider need the comfort. These bars are great and provide max comfort. They are just so natural , that I find myself riding in the drops more often then ever. Highly recommend!!!

Comments about Salsa Cowbell MD 2 Handlebar:
I wanted a shallow-drop slightly flared bar for my Genesis Croix de Fer for greater off-road comfort and control, and more comfort on the road too. I spotted the Salsas at a bike show in London and thought they looked ideal. Couldn't find them anywhere in the UK so I ordered them from Jenson. They're exactly what I was looking for. I can stay in the drops for as long as I want and still operate the brakes/gears. Good price too. I'm very satisfied!
Best Uses
Comments about Salsa Cowbell MD 2 Handlebar:
Fitted to a Scott CX Team frame that had been set up as a flat bar commuter. Needed a wide 46cm bar with splayed short drops and the Cowbell suited the need. It is comfortable and feels natural to hold. Seems well enough made but apart from the shape there's little to justify the extra spend over your average no-name bar in terms of looks and finish. So if you are after bling then forget it. Bar internal diameter is 20mm so bear that in mind with respect to bar end plugs - even Salsa plugs don't fit it!

Kitzbuhel, Austria: Designed for the Hiker, the Biker & the Skier
The little town of Kitzbuhel, with about 8000 residents in Northern Austria has more than skiing to make it worth seeing. There are myriad hiking trails all over the alps that climb each side of the village and an elaborate network of mountain biking and walking trails that pass through bucolic fields filled with brown cows, dark pine forests, and gorgeous meadows.
Kitzbuhel, like other parts of Austria, is designed for the hiker, the biker and the skier. You'll find trash cans and comfortable benches every quarter mile or so, and well marked trails with easy to understand directions.
Hiking with Englebert
I joined Englebert for a hike one day in October. He takes tourists on hikes for no fee each day leaving the tourist office in the heart of downtown at 9 am. It doesn't matter if it's raining or snowing, Englebert just goes.
Our hiking group was a mix—a pair of 60-something Brits, a 40-ish German couple who live in Switzerland.
We set off by bus to nearby Jochberg, where there is another ski area that recently built a lift so that skiers from Hahnenkamm can ski over to this neighboring village and then take the lift back to where they started. It is one of the six trams and lifts that take skiers and during the off season, hikers, up to the top of Kitzbuhel's legendary mountain.
Jochberg is a good place to begin a hike, and as we began in the foothills, we passed by many agricultural relics that tell the story of the small farms that are still a big part of the country's economy. The hay barns which dot every field here, are used because it is simply easier to put all of the hay in these barns than to transport it up the mountains to the main barn. So you'll see these dark wooden structures everywhere. They make good places for campers to bed down in with their comfy hay as a giant pillow.
Taking the Cows down the Mountain
On our way up the mountain we came across a small herd of cattle that was being taken down from the mountain. Each brown cow wore a tinkling bell.
We hiked up and up, each time we passed a gate we carefully made sure to close it back up, and finally after a few hours we came to the Wildalm hut. In the back of this rudimentary little building, there were stalls for cows and a milking machine.
It was time for lunch. The highlight was the local favorite, Krizssstmahsassel, which is a torn up crepe dusted with powdered sugar and served with jam. Just about the most satisfying thing you can eat up here, I thought. After some coffee, we were off again, hiking up and around and then down again, the loop took us no further than four and a half miles but with the elevation it felt like much more.
Hiking Sticks
Kitzbuhel has been inhabited since the twelfth century, and got its start as a copper mining village used by the Romans. There are only two main streets here, but the population swells to about 20,000 during the peak ski season in January through April. It explodes during the famous Kitzbuhel Super G and slalom race on Hahnunkamm. More than 70,000 spectators jam the bottom and lower slopes to watch the finish during the big weekend in late January each year.
While the town is famous as a ski resort, up in the hills there are still many working dairy and beef cattle farms and much of the produce found in the markets grows locally.
Mountain Biking in the Alps
The other warm weather activity which is big here is mountain biking. With a setting like this it is only natural that a biking/adventure sport culture would spring up, and one of the local experts and guides is Kurt Exenbergg, of the Bike Academy. He's been a guide and mountain biking instructor for the past seven years, and knows his way down a mountain on two wheels.
Fortunately, there are some really fine places to eat here, and there is much more than the traditional fare mentioned above. Kurt recommended his own favorite place, called Lois*Stern Essen and Trinkin located on the way out of town on Josef Pirchl street. This little bistro serves Asian inspired shellfish and fish, plus a selection of fine wines. I sat at the bar and enjoyed watching Lois the chef work his magic in their tiny kitchen.

Advances in Evolutionary Phonology
Evolutionary Phonology seeks to explain why certain sound patterns have the typological distributions they do. Why are certain sound patterns extremely common, while others are rare? What factors play a role in determining similar sound patterns across languages? And what is the ultimate explanation for the striking identity between recurrent context-dependent instances of sound change and recurrent alternation types across the world's languages? [more]
Language Areality in Ancient Eurasia
In the past decades much research has been done on areal patterns in the world. Were these areal patterns already present in the times of the ancient languages, especially in the second millenium B.C.? Did areal phenomena exist in that time that did not survive into recent times? If the observable and provable areal patterns changed, why did that happen? [more]
Animacy and mythology in Hantxa Kuin (Cashinahua)
Cashinahua – or Hantxa Kuin as it is called by its speakers – belongs to the Panoan family. All Panoan languages are concentrated in one geographic region, the Amazonian lowlands in Eastern Peru and in adjacent parts of Brazil and Bolivia. The project aims at building up a comprehensive documentation of the Cashinahua language and culture at its current stage in Peru and in Brazil. [more]
A text documentation of N|uu
The project documents the last South African San language and the only surviving member of the !Ui branch of the isolate family Tuu (a.k.a. "Southern Khoisan"). The team consists of three PhD students and the applicant. It is funded by the ELDP and starts in October 2007. [more]
Correlating Genes and Languages
The project aims at examining the putative correlations between certain genetic features and linguistic markers in various regions of the world, contact situations, and on different scales (dialects vs. languages). [more]
Cross-linguistic aspects of the structure of the nominal lexicon
A concept expressed by a monomorphemic word in one language may be expressed by a morphologically complex word (a compound, derivative, etc.) in another. [more]
The Acquisition of Subjects in English, Russian and Polish
This project investigates the well known phenomenon of subject ommision in early child language. The goal of the project is to find out whether the degree of overt subject expression in the target grammar of a language influences the pathways children take to learn this category. [more]
Comparison of the communicative environment of young language-learning children in two cultures
The communicative environments in which children grow up differ considerably across cultures. However, there are hardly any quantitative studies of the input children receive in non-western, rural societies. The goal of this project is to quantitatively assess and compare the communicative contexts of children growing up in two very diverse cultures, namely rural Nepal (Chintang) and rural Germany. [more]
A Grammar of Hinuq
The project aims at the description of Hinuq (Nakh-Daghestanian). The description will include the phonology, morphology and syntax of Hinuq as well as a couple of texts and a short dictionary. [more]
Marked Nominative/Absolutive Case Systems
In most languages, an accusative case will be longer than a nominative case. This is a well-known cross-linguistic generalization. In contrast, there are a few languages in which the nominative case is marked relative to the accusative. This project investigates these exceptional cases to learn more about the possibilities of human languages. [more]
Documentation of Enets: digitization and analysis of legacy field materials and fieldwork with last speakers
Our fieldwork-based project documents Enets, an almost extinct Northern Samoyedic language spoken on the Taimyr Peninsula, Siberia. It is funded by the ELDP for the period 01.02.2008 – 31.07.2011. [more]
An Acoustically-based Phonology and Morphophonology of Siwi (Berber)
The project aims at a phonological analysis of Siwi and an overwiev of its formal morphology. It was partially funded by Studienstiftung des deutschen Volkes. [more]
Endangered Moluccan Languages: Eastern Indonesia & the Dutch diaspora
This project aims to document five previously undescribed languages: Allang (Ambon Island), Haruku (Haruku Island), the language spoken in the villages of Amahei, Makariki, Ruta, and Soahuku (Seram Island), Nusalaut (Nusalaut Island), and the language spoken in the villages of Tenga-Tenga, Tial, Tulehu, Liang and Waai (Ambon Island). A cross-linguistic analysis of several grammatical aspects of Central Moluccan languages will also draw on four previously documented languages (Alune, Buru, Larike, Nuaulu). [more]
Traditional Jambi Malay
This project studies Traditional Jambi Malay, an endangered Malay variety spoken in Jambi Province in southeast Sumatra, Indonesia. The Malay language originated in Sumatra, and dozens of Malay dialects are spoken on the island, none of which have been well described. Most native speakers of Malay live in Sumatra, many more than in Malaysia, for example. Yet there is not even one thorough grammatical description of a Sumatran Malay dialect. One of the expected results of this project would be the first detailed description of such a dialect. [more]
Language and Thought: Universality and Relativism
Almost anybody who has taken part in interactions between native English speakers and Indonesian speakers has had occasion to observe striking differences in how people from both groups deal with the notion of time: how they conceive time, how they value time, and how they plan and execute their activities in time. In this project, we plan to study a variety of conceptual categories which are encoded in significantly different fashion in English and in Indonesian. [more]
Acquisition of Jakarta Indonesian
The goal of the Acquisition Project was to record, transcribe, and enter into a computerized database, a corpus of naturalistic data from a large sample of Jakarta Indonesian child language. [more]
Loanword Typology: Comparative Study of Lexical Borrowability
In this project, we studied lexical borrowing patterns in 41 languages from around the world. Each language was the responsibility of a single author, an expert of the language and what is known about its history and its contact languages. For each language, we assembled lexical data for a fixed list of 1460 meanings. [more]
Quantitative approaches to lexical comparison
Lexical material ("words") is one important source of information to establish genealogical relations between languages. We investigate quantitative methods to assist linguists in this kinds of historical-comparative research. [more]
A Pan-dialectal Documentation of Taa
The project aims at the documentation of the language complex Taa spoken in southwestern Botswana and central-eastern Namibia. The project is funded within the DoBeS framework of the VW-Foundation and is carried out by an interdisciplinary team of three linguists, one anthopologist, and two student assistants. [more]
Northwest Iranian Project
The project aims to describe how the 7 + 2 Northwest Iranian subgroups (henceforth NWI) are interrelated and to describe a possible scenario of how these branches developed. To conduct comparative work on NWI, some reference to SWI is necessary, but Eastern Iranian is for the time excluded from the scope of this project. The thrust of the project is synchronic comparative work, but reference to historical data will also of necessity be included. [more]
The African Lexis in Jamaican Creole and Its Historical Significance
This project undertakes the first comprehensive treatment of the African words which entered Jamaican Creole during the plantation era (1655-1838). [more]
Jamaican Lexicography Project (Jamlex)
The Jamaican Lexicography Project (Jamlex) aims to produce for Jamaican (Creole) an electronic dictionary on historical principles [more]
Description and Documentation of Khwarshi
The aim of the project is to write a comprehensive grammar of Khwarshi. The grammar will consist of several parts: phonology, morphology, syntax, plus a small lexicon and texts. [more]
Yurok Language Project
The Yurok language is spoken along the Klamath River in northwestern California, as it has been for centuries. The Yurok Language Project, started in 2001, combines fieldwork with Yurok elders, community work, and analysis of earlier fieldnotes. Its goals are to document and describe the language, create teaching and learning materials, and make as much information on the Yurok language accessible to those interested in the language. [more]
Documentation of Betawi
Betawi is the indigenous Malay dialect of Jakarta. The speakers were formed from the mixing of ethnicities coming to Jakarta during Dutch colonial times. The inflows were adequately gradual to let the constant stream of immigrants be absorbed into a distinct ethnic group. This ethnic group speaks with their own dialect called Betawi Malay which is different from other dialects of Malay. Nowadays it is only spoken by older people in certain villages on the outskirts of the city. The younger generation tends to speak Jakarta Indonesian. [more]
Documentation of Kenyah
The objective of this project, co-funded by the Culture Unit of UNESCO office, Jakarta, is to document and preserve two endangered Kenyah isolects, Lebu' Kulit and Òma Lóngh. Few descriptive studies of Kenyah exist, and most of them are unpublished. No thorough description of any Kenyah isolect has ever been produced. The only existing documents in Kenyah are a few wordlists and a Bible translation in one isolect, Leppo' Tau. [more]
The Phonology of Jakarta Indonesian
Given the importance of Jakarta Indonesian, it is surprising that its phonology has never been systematically described and analyzed. This new project aims to correct this situation. [more]
Maya writing and historical linguistics
Through comparative reconstruction and epigraphic work we try to track the development of Lowland Maya languages in the context of the cultural evolution of the area. The project also involves the build-up of a Pan-Chronic Mayan Dictionary containing not only cognate sets and reconstructions but also, ideally, all attested lexemes throughout the Mayan languages. [more]
The World Atlas of Language Structures - WALS
In 2005, the World Atlas of Language Structures (WALS) was published as a book and CD-ROM. Based on a core sample of 200 languages, WALS documents the geographical distribution of approximately 120 structural features in the world's languages. WALS for the first time permits the rapid assessment of the areal spread of a wide range of linguistic features. [more]
Typology of Content Interrogatives
Every language has specific words that are used to ask for a specific answer. For example, the English word who asks for a human being, or when for a time. This project investigates what kind of different categorizations languages have in the structure of these content interrogatives. [more]
The Acquisition of Passive Voice in English and Indonesian
This study investigates how young children form passive sentences in English and Indonesian. When using the passive voice the grammar of English requires that a so-called passive form of the verb be used. In contrast to English, Indonesian passives are expressed without an auxiliary verb, by adding the prefix di- to the verb. [more]
Bilingual Child Language Acquisition
In this project the acquisition of bilingualism by various children in different linguistic environment is studied. One subproject investigates an Italian/Indonesian situation, and another a Indonesian/Javanese bilingual setting. [more]
A Reference Grammar of Ọ̀kọ
This project is on Ọ̀kọ̣, the language of the Ogori and Magongo communities of Nigeria. The main objective is to provide a reference grammar of the language.
Language Contact in Sri Lanka
This project investigates the interaction between the languages of Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka has, among all linguistic areas, the decisive advantage of being rather small with regard to the languages concerned (half a dozen or less) and being geographically clearly defined, viz.. by the Indian Ocean. [more]
Electronic Grammaticography
Descriptive linguistic content is still usually presented in book form. This project explores ways how descriptive grammars can be published on the Internet. In a trivial sense, this can be made by publishing a pdf on the author's homepage. [more]
Ditransitive constructions in the world's languages
In this project, we are studying the grammatical properties of ditransitive constructions (i.e. constructions with an agent, a recipient, and a theme argument) in a broadly comparative perspective. We are compiling a database with relevant information on about 200 languages, and we plan to publish this database as well as a monograph that presents the results of our inquiries. [more]
The internal structure of person portmanteaus
In this project we investigate the world-wide diversity and universal structure of person portmanteaus. Person portmanteaus are markers which bundle the expression of person for subject and object of a verbal predicate into a single morphological unit. [more]
Infrastructure for Wordlists
Wordlists are used in various projects at our institute. This project provides the infrastructure for the organization, storage, and retrieval of all these wordlists. [more]
A comparative study of Word Final Devoicing
The phonetic and phonological status of final devoicing of obstruents has been for a long time a controversial topic. In the last 20 years numerous phonological as well as phonetic accounts of this topic had been made. However, the phonetic evidence relies only on acoustic data. In this project a variety of instrumental techniques, such as aerodyamics and electroglottography, are used for the first time to address the essence of the phenomenon. (Heriberto Avelino, Daniel Voigt, Leonardo Lancia, Bodo Winter)
Aerodynamics of Complex Nasal Segments
Descriptions of complex nasal segments in a number of languages families such Dayak, Otomanguean Dogon and Yuhup, include pre- and pos-nasalized sounds obstruents as well as pre- and post- occluded nasals. The goal of this project is to provide a phonetic account of the aerodynamics and kinematics of the gestures involved in producing these segments. Work in collaboration with Uri Tadmor (Berlin), Ana Maria Ospina(Universidad Nacional de Colombia) and Jeff Heath (University of Michigan). (Heriberto Avelino, Daniel Voigt, Leonardo Lancia)
Articulatory-Acoustic mapping of Coronals in American languages
Languages of the Americas (e.g. Pima (Uto-Aztecan) and Yalálag Zapotec (Oto-Manguean, Mixe (MIxe-Zoquean) have rich inventories of coronal consonants. This project aims to characterize the fine articulatory and acoustic properties of coronal consonants which reagardless of being compressed in a narrow space show a wide range of articulatory variability. Work in collaboration with Silke Hamman (U Düsseldorf). (Heriberto Avelino, Daniel Voigt, Leonardo Lancia)
Implementation and innovation of methods and techniques for phonetic data acquisition and analysis
Currently the Phonetics lab is developing the MPI-EVA Data Acquisition System for Phonetic Research. This project aims to create an open platform for phonetic data acquisition and analysis. The final product will be a hardware design and suite of scriptable applications. The full specifications will be open to the community so that scholars from around the world can run, copy, distribute, study, change and improve the system (project in consultation with Prof. Ing. Matthias Laukner and Prof. Ing. Andreas Hebestreit, Hochschule für Technik, Wirtschaft und Kultur School of Engineering). In addition, we are implementing cutting-edge methods such as ultrasound and high speed video in the research of natural languages.The goal of projects using this technology is to investigate in detail the gestures and actions of the vocal folds and laryngeal structures in phenomena such as phonemic phonation and tone contrast, complex segments that involve simultaneous laryngeal settings (e.g. post-/pre-aspirated, breathy voiced, slack stops) or airstream mechanisms (e.g. voiced/voiceless implossives, ejectives). (work in consultation with Dr. Michael Döllinger (Friedrich Alexander Erlangen-Nürnberg University). (Heriberto Avelino, Daniel Voigt, Leonardo Lancia)
Intonational patterns of Topic and Focus constructions in Yucatec Maya
This project looks at the interface between information structure and prosodic cues. Yucate Maya is of particular interest as it is a language that allows a flexible order of major constituent and constrasts pitch and non-modal phonation. Nonetheless, each variation may differ in the pragmatic information it conveys, as well as in their prosodic properties. (Heriberto Avelino, Daniel Voigt, Leonardo Lancia)
Language Documentation
Yoloxóchitl, Guerrero knowledge in Tu'un ísaví (Mixtec) of Yolox (in collaboration with a major research funding supported by SOAS and NSF, P.I. Jonathan Amith). The particularity of this project is that the data will come from a massive corpus of natural speech, in addition to data recorded in elicitation sessions for more sophisticated analysis. This documentation project is a synergistic collaboration between an interdisciplinary team of researchers and an indigenous linguist who wrote his master's thesis on the phonology of Yoloxóchitl Mixtec, his native language. It will create the first extensive, archival quality corpus of a Mixtecan language and establish a base for future linguistic studies, particularly in phonetics, phonology. This project will yield a large and diversified corpus of digital recordings; time-coded transcriptions with full, accurate representation of tone in four-line interlinear format (surface form, parse, gloss, free translation). (Heriberto Avelino, Daniel Voigt, Leonardo Lancia)
Phonetic Documentation of Dogon and Bangime
A series of phonetic analysis will account for the properties of these languages. Topics include complex nasal segments; presence of high front rounded semivowel; possible ATR harmony; tone. Work in collaboration with Jeff Heath (University of Michigan). (Heriberto Avelino, Daniel Voigt, Leonardo Lancia)
Typology of Laryngeal feautures in Languages of the Americas
An orthogonal contrast between two laryngeal features: modal vs. non-modal phonation and tone has been reported in a number of languages from different Amerindian linguistic families.

Frans Steyn has been ruled out of Saturday's Test at Loftus having failed to recover sufficiently from an ankle injury.
This means Jean de Villiers will shift to 12, Jaco Taute will make his Test debut at 13, and Juan de Jongh will warm the bench.
Coenie Oosthuizen also failed a late fitness test and has been replaced by Pat Cilliers.
'Frans went for a number of scans and X-rays this week and after specialist consultation it was decided that he should rather not play against Australia,' said Springbok team doctor Craig Roberts. 'Coenie, who played 35 minutes of rugby for the Free State Cheetahs last weekend, had stiffness in the neck and shoulder area after the game.
'After sitting out training on Monday, he felt much better and took part in the field sessions on Tuesday and Wednesday, but based on the nature of his injury and the initial symptoms early in the week, we felt that it would be better to withdraw him from the Test. Coenie is a young player who has a lot of rugby ahead of him and with injuries like these it's always better to gradually build him back to full match fitness.'

I heard some sad news tonight. Jerry Bobrow, who ran a top test prep company and was a friend to Birmingham sports and countless other athletes in the Valley –including this reporter, way back when — passed away on Nov. 12 after a long bout with cancer.
Birmingham administrator Fern Somoza passed along the sad news. Bobrow, she said, has helped a number of Birmingham students and athletes over the years who wanted to go to college, but couldn't afford all the high-priced test prep. One athlete he helped, is expected to attend Harvard next year.
"He was a wonderful man," Somoza said. "We're all really going to miss him. He's done so much for so many people."

If early voting is any indication, turnout for this year's General Election could be very strong.
Election Day is Tuesday, but more than 5,000 people have voted early in
"That's wonderful. I've worked for 18 years and this is the largest I've ever seen," said Jackie Attaway, supervisor for the Craven County Board of Elections at the
Attaway said she believes there's not much voter apathy for this election.
"I think there's been a lot more emphasis on what the candidates stand for, what they plan to do, so I think people are really listening to that and getting out to vote," she said.
Minor computer problems that had affected the precinct last week were fixed, and Attaway said all the early votes have been transferred to
Tammy Boyd, of Carolina Pines, a first-time poll worker, said she is pleased to participate in the electoral process.
"I get to see a lot of people in the community I haven't seen in years and it has put my mind at ease that I know that early voting is just as good as voting on Election Day and every ballot is counted," she said. "The processes are all adhered to the way the Board of Elections wants them to be. I was just really pleased with the whole process."
The highlight on the ballot is the race for president.
"It's a critical election because there's a lot more on the line this year than in the past and the race is so tight, so I think that's why a lot of people are coming out," said early voter Mark Beall of Havelock.
He took advantage of curbside voting to avoid a line inside the early-voting precinct, located at the State Farm business complex at the entrance to the Westbrooke subdivision off U.S. 70.
"I can't stand up for very long so I always do curbside voting," he said. "The less wait the better."
"I think it's very important," she said. "You get the things in your life done that are important to you. And then you vote for the person that thinks closest to what you want."
Beyond the race for president, this year's ballot features an election for
There are also a wide range of state offices and judgeships up for grabs, along with U.S. House District 3 between Republican Walter B. Jones and Democrat Erik Anderson.
For N.C. Senate, Republican Norman Sanderson is running against Democrat Greg Muse, and there are two N.C. House races in the area, the District 12 race between Democrat George Graham and Republican Jim Dancy to fill the seat of William Wainwright, and the District 3 race between Democrat Robert Cayton and Republican Michael Speciale.
A district court judge race is being contested by Clinton Rowe and Cheryl Spencer.
Two of the four seats up for election on the Craven County Board of Education are up for grabs with Carroll G. (Carr) Ipock II and Dave LaVigne in District 3, and David Hale and Tanya P. Roberts in District 5.
Early voting continues from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. today and Friday, and from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday at Suite 102 of the State Farm business complex, 288 U.S. 70 West, at the entrance to the Westbrooke subdivision, in Havelock. Those not registered can register and vote during the early-voting period.
The polls will be open from to on Tuesday. Only those registered to vote will be allowed to cast ballots on Election Day. Area polling locations include:
Croatan Precinct: Township Six Volunteer Fire Department, 109

The Department of Psychiatry at Cherite Hospital in Berlin has long been a home to ethical and compassionate treatment of patients. However, in the period leading up to World War II, its psychiatry leadership involved the hospital in the emerging eugenics movement. This work, contributed to the emergence of the Nazi T4 Program, which introduced forced sterilization and then "euthanasia" for individuals with chronic mental illness. I serve on the External Advisory Board to a historical program, commissioned by Dr. Andreas Heinz, chair of Psychiatry at Cherite, to review the hospital clinical records and to document the participation of this hospital in these atrocities.

With most of Earth in ruins, humanity's survival relies on these youths' selfless determination to protect the only home they know.

Krasnye Krylia kept up their perfect record at the top of Group B in the EuroChallenge as they cruised to an 82-51 win over Keravnos Strovolou on the road.
Keravnos began brightly as they aimed to pull off the upset, but they could not keep it going much beyond the first quarter before Krasnye's quality began to show.
Nikita Balashov led Krasnye with 18 points and Omar Thomas added 16, with Aaron Miles and Chester Simmons each collecting 10.
But they gave themselves work to do after Kervanos started strong, pulling 15-4 ahead on a Bobby Maze driving lay-up.
But back-to-back threes from Miles and Jeremiah Massey were followed by back-to-back dunks from Balashov as Krasnye came storming back.
It took them until early in the second quarter to level it at 22, but once they had their noses in front they did not look back, and a 12-2 run early in the third had them up 46-33 when Balashov slammed home Miles' alley-oop pass.
Nine unanswered points stretched the lead to 57-37 late in the third quarter and they only continued to pile it on in the fourth, scoring the final 10 points of the game as they refused to show Keravnos any mercy.
Lawrence Kinnard led Keravnos with 11 points while Julian Vaughn had 10.
Keravnos head coach Panayiotis Yiannaras
"Congratulations to Krasnye Krylia for their win. We took what we gave and the final score reflects the picture of the game. We knew that if we lose focus, even for a brief moment, Krasnye Krylia would punish us. Although we started really well, we then lost focus, made bad choices, a lot of mistakes and our opponent punished us. Now we need to focus on our home league game on Saturday and then we have two very important away games for EuroChallenge which we have to win if we want to progress to the next round."
Keravnos player Panayiotis Trisokkas
"Congratulations to Krylia for their game and the well deserved win. We started very well and built an early 10-point lead. After that it seems that we stopped playing. Now we have two very important away games and we will do our best to win them both and qualify. We want to apologise to our home fans for the bad performance tonight but we promise to stay focused in the future and win games."
Krasnye Krylia head coach Sergey Bazarevich
"We are very happy to win here tonight because Keravnos is a very good team coming from two important home wins. Keravnos has good American players and we knew that. We did not start very well but once we improved our defence we were able to come back, balance the game and eventually win with a comfortable margin. For us it was very important to qualify to the last 16 of this competition and I am very happy that we are on track to do that with two games left."
Krasnye Krylia player Aaron Miles
"For us this was a very important win against a very good team. They came out hot and surprised us but we turned up our defence and forced them to make a lot of mistakes. It feels good to win and be able to qualify. Now we have two more games but we feel a lot more relaxed. "
Julian Vaughn

The ignostic challenge is that God has no meaning and substance.He is purportedly the ultimate explanation,a personal one according to Richard Swinburne, but is only a mystery, surrounded by other mysteries, only obscuring rather than explaining! God" hides our ignorance behind a theological fig leaf" states atheologian Keith Parsons and furthermore,"Occult power wielded by a transcendent being in an unscrutable manner for unknown purposes does not seem to be any sort of a good answer."
God did it does not add any information but begs the question as theists are so wont to do.God wills what He wills is a mere unimformative tautology.
Theists have the mere feeling that behind the universe is a caring, supreme mind.This mere feeling shows itself then in pareidolia as the man in the moon , only seeing purpose in a purposeless world.Contrary to Eugenie Scott, George Gaylord Nelson, does not make a philosophical statement in saying such but a scientifIC one.
The Ockham is Ockham's Razor which says that one should only use theories that do not have excess bagage as the theistic one so does.Natural causes and explanations are self-explanatory, but God requires ad hoc explanantions and is parasitic upon science.Contrary to the shallow Alister McGrath, this redundancy does not add anything to anything.
So, contrary to the shallow Richard Swinburne, God is not a good personal explanation. He no mores add anything to explanations than Thor does to meteorological ones , gremlins adding to mechanical explanations, demons to psychological ones or angels to the laws of mechanics to explain the orbits of the planets!
Deist Miklos Jakon in "Confronting Believers" maintains:"I do not understand why atheists accuse me of just guessing about God. Of course I'm guessing! I'm making my best guess. This is theology we are engaged in., here, not science." Indeed! Theology is a series of guesses about a supreme mystery,surrounded by other mysteries, putatively as the ultimate explanation but in in reality, only the ultimate obscurity!
the ignostic-Ockham challenge
