So far, 100% of ORGers think he should be kept.
"But I do know Joey's sister indirectly (or foster sister) and I have heard stories of Joey being into shopping, designer wear, fancy coffees, and pedicures."
Although sometimes I wish they'd trade him just so the noise will stop....
If he weren't a Red, I'd want the Reds to get him.

I don't really like the options presented. I think there's a big difference between trading him and just letting him go.
I voted for keeping him. Bruce will be coming up soon, but I expect he will be replacing Griffey in right after this year. We have some promising prospects in AA, but I expect they are several years away. We will need Dunn's offense in the meantime.
Yeah, not a big fan of the choices.
Depends on the contract or who he would get dealt for.
Yeah, I definitely think there's a lot more to the story than just the two options. If he hits the market (I'd be shocked if an LTC is done before he hits the open market at this point) and gives the Reds a shot to resign him, what will the market dictate? If a bidding war starts and it gets more than, say, $15 mil a year...I don't think I'd do that.
I don't trade him just to trade him. If you get an offer of, let's say, an above average pitching prospect and an above average RH bat...I'd pull the trigger. If his trade market is underwhelming, I do not advocate trading him. If worse comes to worse, the extra draft pick(s) received if he leaves via FA would probably have more value than some moderate or below prospects or crafty veterans.
First choice is a 4 or 5 year deal in the $60-$70 million range. If that can't or doesn't happen, then you have to play it by ear, IMO.

Of course they should, I like Jay Bruce but we're throwing a ton of eggs in the basket of someone who has yet to swing a bat in a major league game.
Go Gators!
Picking up his option for 2008 was a no brainer.
Signing him to a LTC is the same animal.
I voted to let him go. It's all about the money. REDS can't afford him at this point anymore and I'm not sure he'd be worth that big a percentage of payroll.
The offense might stink w/o him, but it stinks with him also. It'll be better for Dunn too..he can DH in the AL and won't have Dusty batting him 5th for the next three years.
You have to be realistic. Dunn is not going to fetch much in a trade, so the draft pick may be the best alternative.
As for an LTC, he's going to want at least 5 yrs and will probably get it somewhere.
5 yrs -$85 mm is my prediction. HRs are falling in the AL (down substantiall this year), so the price of slugging just got dearer.

"A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky, dangerous animals and you know it."
I say sign him, but only if they can do a three year deal. 3 yrs/45M is fine with me.
I would do 4 years 60M but I'm really not sure why Dunn would want to stay in Cincinnati.

"Spurious Correlations and Causal Inferences"

The failure to recognize a correlation as spurious can lead people to adopt strategies to bring about a specific outcome that manipulate something other than a cause of the outcome. However, in a 2008 paper appearing in the journal Analysis, Bert Leuridan, Erik Weber and Maarten Van Dyck suggest that knowledge of spurious correlations can, at least sometimes, justify adopting a strategy aiming at bringing about some change. This claim is surprising and, if true, throws into question the claim of Nancy Cartwright and others that knowledge of laws of association is insufficient for distinguishing effective and ineffective strategies. This paper examines the nature of spurious correlations and their value in crafting strategies for change. The conclusion of the paper is that while knowledge of a spurious correlation may have practical value, the value depends on either having knowledge of the causal structure underlying the correlation or it depends on the use of 'causal criteria'.

PHILADELPHIA - Engineers, design architects and cell biologists from the University of Pennsylvania will use a National Science Foundation grant to utilize the flexibility and sensitivity of human cells as the models for next-generation building "skins" that will adapt to changes in the environment and increase building energy efficiency.
Based upon the dynamic responses that human cells generate, researchers hope to redesign, then re-engineer interfaces between living and engineered systems with the ultimate goal of implementing some of the key features and functions revealed by cells for sensing and control at the building scale.
Administered by the NSF's Office of Emerging Frontiers in Research and Innovation, the four-year, $2 million grant was awarded to Penn for its proposal "Energy Minimization via Multi-Scalar Architectures: From Cell Contractility to Sensing Materials to Adaptive Building Skins."
The objective of the Penn project is to explore the possibility of translating human cells' ability to respond to and alter their surrounding environments into new building materials. Cells alter their extracellular matrices, and thus their surrounding environment, with minimal energy through a combination of physical forces and chemical transactions. The hope is that insights into how cells accomplish this will lead to bio-mimetic designs and to engineers who can turn these findings into passive materials, sensors and imagers that will be integrated into responsive building skins at the architectural scale.
The novelty of the study lies in the collaboration of researchers and laboratories:

Texans running back Arian Foster is "back to normal" after a heart scare and expected to play Sunday at Indianapolis. Foster was forced to leave Sunday's loss to the Vikings due to an irregular heartbeat. On Monday he tweeted: "I appreciate all the concern and support. I am doing well. Saw a cardiologist today and everything is back to normal." Houston coach Gary Kubiak told the Houston Chronicle that Foster underwent tests Monday and they "look to be positive. We expect him to be back." Foster has rushed for 1,328 yards this season with 14 TDs.

It was my first stay at this hotel, but it won't be the last. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. My room was comfortable and quiet. Both dinner and breakfast were of a high quality and good value for money. less
We stayed one night for a wedding, and really enjoyed our time in the hotel. The evening food was marvellous and the staff were very knowledgable and friendly.
Our room was immaculate and the bed very comfy. The only complaints would be that it was far too hot in the room so we had to open the balcony door, which meant we heard all the noise from the street below. This did mean being woken up at 7am on a Saturday by a garbage truck! Other than that though, I couldn't fault this place.
Excellent facilities and excellent staff! less
I arrived late, after food had finished and only sadwiches were available. Having explained I can't eat bread, one of the chefs stayed behind to cook me something hot which was so welcome after the day I had had. The room was so fantastic - the best I've ever stayed in. The deep jaccuzzi bath was so relaxing and the four poster bed was so so comfortable. The staff at breakfast were so attentive. I stay in a lot of hotels and this was certainly one of the best ever. Thank you to everyone. less
I've stayed in a few Beat Westerns with work and this is by far the best I have stayed at, when visiting recently with the wife. The staff were helpful and friendly and the room was far above the standard you would expect and snip at only £55 a night. Decent sized bed, some delicious shortbread and homemade chocolate, brilliant shower with both excellent pressure and temperature (a rarity for any hotel!).
I would thoroughly recommend this establishment and hope to come back again. The reason for only 4 stars is I didn't sample the breakfast as we had to rush off on the morning (so can't review something I didn't have) and my only complaint about the room, is the shower is a fixed shower head designed for people under 5 foot 10, and at 6 foot 3 it made washing my hair tricky. However if that's the only problem, why complain.
Thanks very much for a wonderful stay!

We decided to have a special night out, both worked hard over past few weeks so googled where to go in the local area..... The Three Swan's came up as good reviews..... We weren't sure, so decided to book a table then thought we could go for a coffee in the afternoon, check the place out..... This paid off, because, even an afternoon coffee was a very nice experience, service excellent. We arrived for our meal, 6:30pm sat.. We were treated so well by all the staff, even given a Personal tour by the restaurant manager, very proud of the new refurbishment, rightly so, it was stunning......... Decor gorgeous, staff fantastic, service the best we've experienced in a long time, food out of this world, cocktails, wine, the lot...... This have has transformed.

SALT LAKE CITY - MARCH 25: Head coach Jim Boeheim of the Syracuse Orange reacts during the west regional semifinal of the 2010 NCAA men's basketball tournament against the Butler Bulldogs at the Energy Solutions Arena on March 25, 2010 in Salt Lake City, Utah. The Bulldogs defeated the Orange 63-59. (Photo by Christian Petersen/Getty Images)
Matt Slocum/AP Photo The zone has always been the hallmark of Jim Boeheim, and he's had many great defenses through the years, but none can stack up to this year's version. The Orange has all the ingredients for the perfect 2-3, and the team is undefeated and #1 largely due to its D. Here are the four biggest reasons why: Size. Start with Fab Melo, a 7-foot shot blocker inside who grows more confident and dominant each game. He also just so happens to have a 7-foot backup who can intimidate too. SU adds long athletic wings to the mix, who all see the passing lanes and disrupt long shots. The Orange also has bigger guards who generate a lot of steals, including dynamic Dion Waiters, who comes off the bench and is in the nation's Top 3 for thefts per 40 minutes. Depth. Every single position has a competent backup, without a major drop off. SU's best perimeter defender (Waiters) and rebounder (CJ Fair) both come off the bench. The depth benefits Syracuse late in games. Last year, R...

Rep Power:
All good thoughts. Please don't think that by not responding to your questions, I am dismissing them. Rather I am going back and rethinking and working through each suggestion, learning as I go. Often, when I think I have an well formed response, I find on final reading that I failed to understand something, and I go back and try to educate myself more.
I tend to spreadsheet everything so that I can easily see how different variables affect totals. As I consider each of the suggestions and try to work out the numbers on each of them, I of course develop additional questions. Any additional help is appreciated as I try to formulate answers and better questions.
First, as several people have suggested a genset, I am confounded when I try to find a way to use all of the available energy from the generator to charge the batteries. It seems that a 5KW generator should be able to power a 417 amp charger (I recognize that is ridiculously large, just showing the math), but the largest charger I find is 150 amps. I realize that the rate at which the batteries accept charge is a limiting factor as well, but is there any way to more fully utilize the power being generated by the generator so as to run it as little as possible? As I look at my growing spreadsheet, the disparity between the 5000W produced per third of a gallon of diesel used by the genset and the 150a actually making it into my batteries just really stands out as an inefficiency as I compare options.
Second, can anyone advise current Gasoline and Diesel prices in the Caribbean?
Finally, does anyone have specific knowledge of a H/O alternator that is a direct replacement for the stock alternator on a Yanmar 4JH3-HTE? I have as yet been unable to confirm that anything larger than a 110 amp is a direct bolt-on and doesn't require double pulleys or the like.
Thanks again for the continued responses. My thinking has come a long way in the last few days.

Sweltering in the afternoon heat, Kourtney Lampedecchio stood waiting with hundreds of her fellow graduates in a big outdoor tent on the UC Davis campus Thursday.
She didn't ask for special accommodations, though a growing tumor in her neck made her back and arms ache, and she had undergone radiation therapy just hours before donning her cap and gown.
Lampedecchio, 31, received her master of fine arts degree in theater design on Thursday, four years after she was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer that spread through her body, broke her spine and laced her brain with more than a dozen tumors.
When she marched inside the ARC Pavilion with her classmates and walked across the stage, her mother, Vicky Morasci, of Placerville, let out a yell and brushed away tears. As her daughter left the stage, Morasci raced down the bleacher steps and they embraced, weeping. Lampedecchio said she was overwhelmed she had lived to graduate.
"I used to say that if I died tomorrow, at least I was doing something that I loved," Lampedecchio said. "I made it to this point. Now if I died tomorrow I'd feel like I really did something. I'm pretty happy at the moment."
Refusing to surrender to an illness that doctors say should have killed her long ago, Lampedecchio plans to move to Los Angeles. She hopes to break into movie and TV set design and has already been making connections in the industry and arranging to transfer her medical care from UC Davis to UCLA.
"Now that I have a degree, I feel like I have a better shot at doing the work I want to do," she said. "I have to at least try."
Lampedecchio has dozens of tumors in her brain and bones. The cancer destroyed vertebrae, requiring two spinal fusion surgeries. It led to an ongoing series of radiation and chemotherapy treatments that won't cure her cancer, but have kept it in check.
Just hours before graduation, Lampedecchio put on a hospital gown and entered a linear accelerator at the UC Davis Cancer Center in Sacramento. Radiation therapists immobilized her face in a white mesh mask and directed a beam of radiation at a tumor that is spreading in her neck and threatening to compress her spinal chord and paralyze her.
She did not volunteer that she was in pain. When asked directly, she said: "I have pain in my middle back, my arms really hurt, and my thumbs are numb."
Afterward, smiling and laughing in sunglasses and a fedora that covered her bare head, she said the spaceship-like accelerator and strange white mask were like elements in a set design. She had used another of her treatment masks in an art-class project. She also made art from titanium rods that once supported her spine, then snapped, requiring a second lengthy surgery. Her surgeon gave the faulty hardware to her in plastic bags.
Lampedecchio's ability to survive the past four years with a rare and aggressive form of cancer, and to keep up with her work and studies have astounded the staff at the cancer center. Over the years, she's undergone radiation treatments to control tumors in her brain, breast and hip.
"The main thing about Kourtney is her spirits are so high," radiation oncologist Jyoti Mayadev said in the hospital hallway. "She has that self-effort and determination."
UC Davis professor Thomas Munn said Lampedecchio decided to learn lighting design this year and threw herself into it, creating the lighting plots for several student productions.
"Like everything else, when she attacks it, she attacks it," Munn said. "She learned two years worth of coursework in about three months."
At times when Lampedecchio was especially sick, Munn said he worried she wouldn't survive the week. But then she'd rally and work twice as hard. "I think the sickness has probably given her a strong sense of purpose and determination," he said.
Among family members at the graduation ceremony in the ARC Pavilion on Thursday were Lampedecchio's stepfather Gregg Morasci, her grandmother Diane Sharp and nephew Richard Divodi, 6. As the graduates lined up outside before the ceremony, Vicky Morasci put a lei of orchids around her daughter's neck.
"Hi, baby. Congratulations," she said, hugging and kissing her.
Four years ago, in June 2008, Morasci flew to Colorado, where her daughter was working as a scenic artist, to care for her after her back broke and doctors found the cancer. She said at first she "cried and howled at the moon" and wished she could "get sick and go first."
"You want to put the order back right. Mother goes before child," she said.
But then the tasks of life and treatment took over. "You just deal with it," she said. "You have to."
Her daughter, she said, has the same attitude but more so. Neither mother nor daughter are ready to give up.
The two traveled to Paris together in December, a place Lampedecchio had always wanted to go. Her daughter's energy level was low, Morasci said, but she seemed to recover at the Louvre, where the artwork entranced her.
"She could curl up in a ball and let herself pass, or she could move on," Morasci said. "We both feel this is her path. We don't feel it's done yet."

Special Correspondent
NEW DELHI: Railway Minister Mamata Banerjee on Thursday ruled out privatisation of the railways and asserted that the Private-Public Partnership (PPP) model would be pursued to push projects and engage in commercial utilisation of land to generate revenue.
Replying to the debate on the Railway budget in the Rajya Sabha, Ms. Banerjee said the Ministry was losing 40 per cent revenue due to agitations, bandhs and other such activities in various parts of the country.
While admitting that the railways was the lifeline of the nation and people had great expectations from it, she said the Ministry did not have funds to fulfil all the demands. At least Rs 1 lakh crore was needed for the pending projects.
"Where will the money come from? It will not drop from the heavens," she said. Without long-term planning and execution of projects, it would not be possible for the railways to start new trains and decongest traffic.
The House returned the Appropriation bills concerned, as passed by the Lok Sabha, enabling the railways to withdraw money from the exchequer for a part of 2010-11 and some authorisations for the current fiscal and 2008-09.
Ms. Banerjee said the railways took pride in its 14 lakh employees. The Ministry had consulted the employees unions on various issues, including the PPP model and commercial utilisation plans.
The Ministry had set up a task force for land utilisation. This would prevent encroachment of vacant land. As per estimates, the railways had 43,000 hectares of surplus land and the Rail budget envisaged its commercial utilisation.
Defending the PPP model, she said that a decade ago she cleared the Pipava port project. By replicating such model, the railways could utilise land to develop tourist sites, pilgrimage circuits and spur economic activity.
The Ministry planned to set up a cell to develop business opportunities with the private sector. It would seek permission from the Prime Minister and the Planning Commission to have a single-window clearance system for PPP projects under short timelines.

By ANGHARAD MARMENT
ANIMAL FARM Oxford Castle OXFORD
George Orwell's political satire Animal Farm was adapted as a theatre piece by the British theatre director and playwright Ian Wooldridge. The Creation Theatre Company is the latest establishment to take on the adaptation, with a twist: it is going to be performed in the unique location of the former exercise yard of Oxford Prison.
The Creation Theatre Company is famed for using such extraordinary venues, and has previously performed in a ruined abbey in Canterbury and an island on the River Cherwell. Founded in 1996 by David Parrish, it has seen audience numbers rapidly expand from 3,000 in 1996 to 50,000 in 2006.
Creation's shows are designed to be accessible to everyone from children to long-standing Shakespeare lovers, and this is reflected in its array of previous shows, everything from Hamlet to Through the Looking Glass. The company is also heavily involved with the Oxfordshire community, and has recently undertaken some projects with the Youth Offending Service.
Freelance director Joanna Read, whose previous career highlights include Arthur Miller's Playing for Time, will be at the helm of the new production. This much anticipated performance will, she says, "loosen the boundaries between audience and actor."
The adaptation tells Orwell's story in a fluid way that makes it easy to follow. Read says that Wooldridge's adaptation contains very intimate details, yet also has some epic moments. This marriage of contrasts gives the play variety and diversity – vital ingredients for a successful performance.
Read is also delighted by having such an unusual venue in which to work. She says that it's "a non-conventional space, so the actors' physical relationships are very different from the ones that you get on stage. The atmospheric and evocative location inspires a sinister air that adds to the drama of the production." She jokes: "There are no curtains to bring down if it all goes wrong!"

Pew Research Center survey reports, demographic studies and data-driven analysis
Restoring America's Reputation in the World
Pew Global Attitudes surveys chronicled the rise of anti-Americanism around the world for much of the past decade and its sharp recession in many countries following the election of President Barack Obama. However, this improving trend may be more fragile than it would be if it had been based on views of his specific policies.
Mixed Views of Hamas and Hezbollah in Largely Muslim Nations
A survey of Muslims in eight countries and the Palestinian territories finds little enthusiasm for the extremist Islamic organizations, little support for Muslim political leaders and the widespread perception of a Sunni-Shia conflict. Most Muslims are also convinced there is a struggle between modernization and fundamentalists, and publics overwhelmingly support educating girls and boys equally.
The Post-Communist Generation in the Former Eastern Bloc
A Pew Global Attitudes survey finds that members of the post-communist generation, who are now between the ages of 18 and 39, offer much more positive evaluations of the political and economic changes their countries have undergone over the past two decades than do those who were adults when the Iron Curtain fell.
Ukraine's National Election — a Problem of Democracy?
On the eve of a national election, Ukrainians are not only disenchanted with their current leadership and economic situation; they are also the most dissatisfied among former Soviet Bloc nations with the transition to a democracy and free markets.
Widespread Anti-Immigrant Sentiment in Italy
Eight-in-ten Italians say they would like to to see tighter restrictions on immigration in a 2009 survey. Italians were also more likely than any other public included in a 47-nation survey conducted in 2007 to see immigration as a big problem.
Negative Views of U.S. Unchanged in Turkey
Though U.S. image remains dismal in Turkey (the lowest rating among 25 nations surveyed) there are signs of improvement in this strategically important country. Far more Turks trust the new American president and the nation is turning less negative toward U.S. foreign policy.
Global Warming Seen as a Major Problem Around the World
As leaders convene in Copenhagen to discuss climate change, they will address a concern shared around the globe. Publics are willing to sacrifice economic growth for the environment, but nations are split on which country should lead on global warming.
Europeans and Americans Share Concerns About Iran's Nuclear Program
As international pressure mounts on Iran to halt its nuclear program, Americans and Europeans generally express serious concerns about the potential threat from a nuclear-armed Iran. These fears are somewhat muted in Russia
Obama Popular in Japan, China and South Korea
As President Obama embarks on his first trip to Asia he will be greeted by publics who are confident in his judgment regarding world affairs and who generally agree with his international policies.
Americans and Western Europeans Agree on Afghanistan-Pakistan Extremist Threat
While both Americans and Western Europeans generally believe the "Af-Pak" region potentially poses significant threats to national security, they do not share a common view about the deployment of military forces in Afghanistan.

Jessica's Law provision debated in San Diego court
McKee was convicted in 1991 and 1998 of two counts of committing a lewd or lascivious act on a child and was sent to prison. The victims were two girls — one an 11-year-old baby sitter, the other an 8-year-old relative. After serving his time in prison, prosecutors filed a petition in 2004 seeking to classify McKee as a sexually violent predator.
At the time, to be given such a classification a predator had to be convicted of a violent sex crime against two or more victims and be diagnosed with a mental disorder that would make him or her likely to reoffend.
Jessica's Law changed the criteria to require only one victim.
McKee was initially committed to a state hospital for two years. In 2007, prosecutors filed a petition seeking to commit him indefinitely. McKee appealed and the case eventually reached the state Supreme Court.
Prosecutors contend in court documents that sexually violent predators are different from other types of offenders because of the unique dangers they pose and their long-term treatment needs. The attorneys note that 20 states, plus the federal government, have civil commitment schemes for sexually violent predators, all but one of which are indeterminate.
"The mental disorder required for an SVP commitment predisposes the SVP to commit criminal sexual acts," prosecutors said in the documents.
Dr. David Fennell, chief of forensic psychiatry at Atascadero State Hospital where such offenders were housed until 2005, testified that two-year commitment terms can be counterproductive to sex offender treatment, because patients often spend months away from the hospital awaiting their court hearings.
"There is very often backsliding," he said.
Most sexually violent predators are now confined at Coalinga State Hospital in Fresno County. One patient is at Patton State Hospital in San Bernardino County, according to the state Department of Mental Health.
San Diego prosecutors, including District Attorney Bonnie Dumanis, declined to be interviewed for this story, saying they could not comment on a pending case.

Haskell has previously been accused by relatives of abuse and threats, according to police records obtained by ABC News. Haskell's mother, Karla Jeanne Haskell, told police in San Marcos, Calif., on July 3 that she wanted a restraining order against her son after a ferocious argument that began when she told him that she was in contact with his ex-wife, court documents state.
She said that he forced her into the garage and tied her wrists with duct tape before taping her to a computer chair.
"He yelled at me and twice placed his hands around my neck trying to choke me and caused me to pass out," Karla Haskell, 61, said, according to the court documents. "He told me he was going to kill me, my family and any officer who stops him. He hid my telephones. I was taped up for four hours."
There is no record of Haskell being arrested for the alleged assault on his mother.
Police reports in Utah indicate that Haskell's ex-wife Melanie Kaye Haskell was also the victim of violence. Ron Haskell was charged with domestic assault on June 5, 2008 after his wife called the police saying that he had dragged her out of their bedroom by her hair and repeatedly punched her in the head.
The Logan City Police Department report states that she then decided to go and sleep in their children's bedroom, but he followed her in there and pulled her out of the room by her hair once more, continuing to punch her in the head.
Police booked him on domestic assault and domestic violence in the presence of a child because the couple's children, aged 3 and 5 at the time, were present. He made bail and was released five hours later. It's not clear how the charged was adjudicated.
The final issue that the Logan City Police Department was involved in was a protection order violation. His wife had been awarded a protection order in July 2013 and on Oct. 8, 2013, she called in a protection order violation because he had showed up at one of their children's' schools.
The wife filed for divorce months later – on Valentine's Day.
Jonathan Ricks, a family friend, says he remembers Katie Stay discussing her sister's troubled marriage.
"Katie had told me on one occasion how her sister was leaving an abusive relationship," Ricks said.
Tom Stay, Stephen Stay's father, told KABC that he never expected this sort of trouble from Haskell.
"He was in a good home, brought up in a good family, they taught him the gospel and he understood what was right and wrong," Tom Stay said. "And he was a good boy, but how he changed … you just don't know."

PROLOR's long-acting version of human growth hormone and long-acting clotting factors in preclinical development for hemophilia are based on the company's proprietary CTP technology. When attached to a therapeutic protein, CTP significantly extends the length of time the protein remains active in the body. Clinical and preclinical studies show that the CTP technology appears to be safe and effective in extending the duration of all proteins tested to date. CTP was identified at Washington University in St. Louis and is exclusively licensed to PROLOR for all proteins and peptides, except for four endocrine proteins that are licensed to Merck. One of these, the long-acting fertility drug Elonva®, is already marketed by Merck & Co. in Europe.
"This transaction is consistent with OPKO's stated objective of broadening our portfolio of market-transforming therapies in selected specialty markets," commented Dr. Phillip Frost , OPKO's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "With the inclusion of PROLOR's pipeline, OPKO will have four significant products in Phase III clinical development and a robust pipeline of important therapeutic and unique diagnostic products in various stages of development. PROLOR's drug-product candidates for growth hormone deficiency, hemophilia, obesity and diabetes, along with its broadly applicable technology platforms and efficient research and development center are highly valuable assets that will complement OPKO's strategy."

A lovely poem by William Butler Yeats about one of the most interesting cities on the planet — Byzantium, which was renamed Constantinople, which is now known as Istanbul:
That is no country for old men. The young
In one another's arms, birds in the trees
- Those dying generations – at their song,
The salmon-falls, the mackerel-crowded seas,
Fish, flesh, or fowl, commend all summer long
Whatever is begotten, born, and dies.
Caught in that sensual music all neglect
Monuments of unageing intellect.
An aged man is but a paltry thing,
A tattered coat upon a stick, unless
Soul clap its hands and sing, and louder sing
For every tatter in its mortal dress,
Nor is there singing school but studying
Monuments of its own magnificence;
And therefore I have sailed the seas and come
To the holy city of Byzantium.
O sages standing in God's holy fire
As in the gold mosaic of a wall,
Come from the holy fire, perne in a gyre,
And be the singing-masters of my soul.
Consume my heart away; sick with desire
And fastened to a dying animal
It knows not what it is; and gather me
Into the artifice of eternity.
Once out of nature I shall never take
My bodily form from any natural thing,
But such a form as Grecian goldsmiths make
Of hammered gold and gold enamelling
To keep a drowsy Emperor awake;
Or set upon a golden bough to sing
To lords and ladies of Byzantium
Of what is past, or passing, or to come.
Constantine's "New Rome," capital of the Byzantine emperors and then of the Ottoman sultans, controlling the north-south waterway of the Bosporus that connects the Mediterranean and the Sea of Marmara on the south to the Black Sea on the north, literally part European and part Asian, straddling the land bridge between the two continents — this is an unbelievably important and unspeakably significant place.
Beautiful mosques, with their tall and characteristically Ottoman Turkish "pencil minarets":
Gorgeously set amidst large bodies of water:
With great shopping and great food:
Quite simply, one of my very favorite places to be.

Grief and Your View Of Death
Topic Overview
Your grieving process is influenced by how you view death.
- If you believe in punishment after death, you may have a heightened sense of fear for your loved one.
- If you believe that death is the end of all existence, you may feel a great sense of loss.
- If you believe in eternal life, you may feel a great sense of hope.
Children younger than age 7 usually perceive death as separation. They may feel abandoned and scared, and they may be afraid to be alone or to leave people they love. They may not want to sleep alone at night, or they may refuse to go to day care or school.

Children between the ages of 7 and 12 often perceive death as a threat to their personal safety. They may fear that they will die as well, and they may try to protect themselves from death. Some children may try to behave extremely well. Others may try to be very brave. Some children may want to stay close to someone they think can protect them.
Teens perceive death much like adults do. But they may express their feelings in dramatic or unexpected ways. For example, they may join a religious group that defines death in a way that calms their feelings. They may also defy death by participating in dangerous activities, such as driving a car very fast.

Hi everybody ...
Is it possible to use iPad to make Programming on iPad ??..
Definitely not, I'd say, also considering that if I'm not wrong you can't even develop on the iPad with the native Apple SDK, but you need an Apple computer (see e.g. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4838607/can-an-ipad-be-used-as-a-development-machine-to-create-ipad-applications). It seems there are some third parties approaches to the idea of developing on the iPad, but this is OT here.
Is it possible to Run my lovely IDE : NetBeans on iPad ??..
Definitely not. There's no available Java JDK that runs on the iPad. Of course I'm not considering funny approaches such as connecting the iPad with a XWindows client to a Linux machine running NetBeans, since I don't think it's whay you're thinking of.
Is it possible to use my lovely IDE : NetBeans on iPad in order to make JAVA-Application for iPad ??..
Perhaps partially. Google provides a tool for developing in Java the back-end of a iPad application (http://code.google.com/p/j2objc/) and then translates it into ObjC. I didn't try it, so I can't speak about the quality. What's clear is that this approach, at the moment, is restricted to the back-end, so you still need an Apple computer with the native SDK for creating the user interface.

Of course not,but it's a given they'll be faster no matter what,and that Nvidia is still paying the price of being really late,and still not having a Dual GPU card themselves that beats the HD5970,most likely for power and heat reasons like you mentioned.
Will a dual GPU card based on the GF104 do it?,it might give the HD5970 a good run for the money given the benchmarks posted,but by the time it might be released to market,you guessed it,here comes SI from ATI,which again,will probably have a Dual GPU based version yet again(HD6970??),so i'm not sure Nvidia will bother with it,trying to beat a card from what will be the previous generation by then.

The Southern State Singers will begin rehearsals for the 2014-15 season 6 p.m. Monday, Aug. 25, in Room 107 of Southern State Community College's Central Campus, 100 Hobart Dr., Hillsboro.
Under the direction of John M. Glaze, the Southern State Singers are preparing to begin their 16th season. The choral group is comprised of a core of dedicated community members, with Southern State students making up the remainder of the membership.
"It's for all who love to sing and enjoy the process of creating music together," said Glaze.
The Southern State Singers perform concerts throughout the school year, presenting holiday music, light classics, show tunes and more.
"Southern State has sponsored our community chorus for many years and Southern State Singers has represented the college in our community through the group's performances," said Glaze. "As we begin our new season, we invite all those with a love of the joy of singing to come out and join us. With Southern State Singers, you're only a stranger for a few minutes. We look forward to welcoming you!"

Russia's foreign ministry said on Tuesday that new European Union sanctions against Iran show scorn for the United Nations and the six nations working to resolve disputes over Iran's nuclear programme.
The EU on Monday adopted new sanctions targeting Iran's foreign trade, banking and energy sectors.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Andrei Nesterenko said the move "not only undermines our joint strength in the search for a political—diplomatic resolution of the situation around Iran's nuclear programme but demonstrates scorn for the carefully developed and agreed—upon position of the U.N. Security Council resolution."
Russia, a member of the sextet negotiating with Iran, supported the U.N. sanctions adopted last month, but has objected to stronger measures. The sextet also comprises the United States, China, France, Britain and Germany.
Russia has generally been an ally of Iran, but has shown increasing frustration with Tehran over its failure to resolve suspicions that it aims to develop nuclear weapons. Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad last week accused Russia of turning against his country by supporting the most recent sanctions; the Russian Foreign Ministry on Monday called his remarks "irresponsible rhetoric."
Russia built Iran's Bushehr nuclear power plant, which the United States and Western critics have alleged could be part of Iran's weapons—development efforts. Russia rejects those claims.
Bushehr is expected to go into operation this year. On Tuesday, the head of Russia's atomic energy agency, Sergei Kirienko, was quoted by the ITAR—Tass news agency as saying that delivery of fuel into the plant's reactor section should be finished by the end of August.

Hello, I've snuck a go on the outlaws laptop while they are walking their neurotic dog so here is the trip report from yesterday.
Started with me laying on my back with my arm stuck up to its shoulder in a dead tree somewhere near Corfe Mullen. Yes it was a cache. :D
Another cache found at Exeter services then off to the inlaws.
Offered breadmaker shaped cake on arrival but declined.
Steven settled with a box of Lego so me and Adrian disappear to grab a couple of nearby caches - including one in the middle of a lovely Christmas tree forest. :D
Then it was dinner time. Amongst the very burnt barbecued sossidges and chicken there was slices of tomato and some radishes.
Ice cream served on a tea plate.
Then as it was Monday night it was an endless succession of soap operas. :(
Read 2 Sky at Night magazines and most of Beedle the Bard.
Off to Bude in a bit. :D
