34 greeters to personally assist their passenger to or from the terminal building rather than quickly dropping them off or picking them up at the curbside. The passenger assis- tance parking area provides close and convenient parking spaces as opposed to spaces that may require longer walking distances. Because parking in the passenger assistance parking area would be limited to 10 to 15 min, aircraft delays may result in visitors being required to leave these limited-time spaces and move to public parking or, alternatively, to a remotely located cell phone lot, which could lead to more congestion on terminal roadways. Meeters and greeters would also be required to time their arrival so they would not have to dwell for long periods of time. Operations Perspective Figure 4-11. Low-profile ticket counter bag wells.

Low-profile ticket counter bag wells (for a common example, Challenges to Implementation see Figure 4-11: "Low Profile") have been used at airports around the world for a number of years, but have not been Airport operators may not have the ability to eliminate widely implemented in the United States due to the higher existing close-in parking capacity or related revenue to cost compared with traditional devices.

Low-Profile Passenger Baggage Devices Passenger baggage devices consist of ticket counter bag wells, used for depositing check baggage with the airline, and baggage-claim devices, used for claiming checked baggage at the point of arrival. The common passenger baggage devices (see Figure 4-11: "Typical Arrangement" and Figure 4-12: "Typical Carousel Claim") require passengers to either lift their check baggage approximately 10 to 12 in. off the floor to place them in the bag well for the ticket counter agent to weigh each bag and apply a bag tag or to lift their bags over the typical 8-in. threshold of a slope-plate baggage-claim carousel. In addition, bags are often double-stacked on slope- Figure 4-12. Low-profile bag claim devices.

Major League Soccer Executive Javier Leon '88 Talks with Students During Athenaeum Lunch
By Stephanie Goldberger '12
He went from investment banking to Major League Soccerand helped launch Chivas USA in 2004. For students like myself who are learning about the qualities of entrepreneurship in the classroom, Javier Leon'88 stands as a great example. Leon returned to CMC in early April to share his experiences in sports management and to offer advice on achieving success in business. His visit was sponsored by the Robert Day School of Economics and Finance at CMC.
During his lunch address at the Athenaeum, Leon outlined his post-CMC life in three phases: as a master's student in international management at the University of California, San Diego; as a specialist in equity capital markets in New York City; and as a CEO in Major League Soccer (MLS). Connecting with current CMC students who are working through college to pay off tuition and any loans, he reflected on the many weekends, during his junior and senior years at CMC, that he drove to his job in San Diego. His dedication to that job, as well as the skills he developed after 12 years in investment banking, gave him the footing that he needed to transition into the sports industry at an executive level.
It was on his groundbreaking work as Chivas USA's first CEO and, currently, as managing director of Andell Sports Groupwhich owns Major League Soccer team Chicago Firethat Leon focused his talk. In 2004, he helped to launch Chivas USA as Major League Soccer's 11th team and to market it in connection with its sister team, Club Deportivo Guadalajara of Mexico. After three years with Chivas USA, he was offered the opportunity to join Andell Sports Group, a family management firm. He has since been involved in hiring the Chicago Fire's management, and in marketing the team to Chicago's Hispanic community. Just recently, he established a partnership between the Fire and Quaker Oats that made Quaker Oats the team's 2012 jersey sponsor.
Javier Leon not only provided a positive analysis of MLS and hope for soccer as a rising sport in the United States, but also reminded students that hard work and passion can lead them to a personally rewarding management role in their industry of choice.
About Javier Leon
Javier Leon spent 12 years in the investment banking world as a managing director for Merrill Lynch, Deutsche Bank and ING-Barings. He holds a bachelor's degree from Claremont McKenna College and a master's of International Management from the University of California, San Diego.

The Minamolc (working title) is a sandbox game where you use blocks to build various types of structures and mechanisms.
Currently the game is in alpha stage of development, but will soon be launching a web version of the game.
Some videos of the game:
0 comments by juliocdep on Aug 11th, 2012
Probably this will be the last version of the Tech Demo, this version was made without any planning just to test some concept. Now I'm working more often in an alpha version, basically I'm rewriting all the code, but now make it much more organized. As I'm working alone in this project in my extra time and I'm not a good artist the focus of alpha version will be in the gameplay, the others things like fancy graphics, sounds, particle system, nice GUI, etc. will have to wait.
About the Alpha Version: For the first version it will have all the features in the Tech Demo, but implemented in a better way and more optimized. It is already in development and I working much more often than the Tech Demo version.
About the Tech Demo 1.3 update:
- Scalable connecting grid.
In a selected block you can press "-" (minus key) and "=" (plus key) to change it.
- Scalable blocks.
"Shitf" + "Wheel Scroll" change the size of the block.
>>> Play the game here
please finish it or reles it as it is.
Nice concept.
Tracking !!!
I think we can consider this dead by now,its already 5 months since the last update
Im seriously starting to lose my hope :/
Awesome good work!!
The project is not dead, the problem is that I'm currently with little time to devote myself to it. Little by little I am improving it and I have no intention of abandoning the project.
Well is there any ETA you can give us for a release?
is it ready yet?
is there a set date now because I carn't wait :)

Settle into the Playhouse's comfortable confines for a night of nerve-wracking diversion with a performance of Postmortem. Set in April 1922 (the same month Warren Harding auctioned off lower Wyoming to settle his competitive-milk-chugging debts), Postmortem centers on an off-duty Broadway musical cast who has assembled for a night or two of sanctioned bacchanalia at a medieval castle owned by William Gillette, who stars in the Broadway cast as an exceptionally clean-shaven Sherlock Holmes. Like all good parties, theirs has a s?ance penciled in, but things go downhill when it becomes clear that someone among them is trying to murder Gillette.3326 Everett RdRichfield, OH US

Hi all,
Does anybody know if I can genotype/perform genomic DNA PCR amplification with genomic primers on an RNA extraction before performing a DNase treatment? I am using the Qiagen Plant Mini RNA Prep kit, starting with a little under 100mg of tissue. Would there be enough whole DNA within the pre-DNase treated sample to perform a genomic DNA PCR?
I need to both genotype my plants as well as perform an RNA extraction for RT-PCR - my plants are stunted and I can not take a leaf sample prior to performing an RNA extraction for a separate DNA extraction followed by PCR.
Any feedback would be helpful.

I dig the scribbly outlines. but i wonder if they should be used on the claws as well? you sure don't need them on the head. i wouldn't know if it'd feel more balanced with outlines on the claws until after i'd seen it. could be an awful suggestion for all i know.

Looking interesting. I'm not sure if it's any use, and who am I to really judge, but I think if you decreased the length of the abdomen and increased the thickness of the legs a bit it might work better, proportion wise. That's just my opinion though :0) ... the colors are looking cool

Video tip and Q&A with golf pro Erik Johnson
A question-and-answer session with Erik Johnson, the general manager of the Encinitas Ranch Golf Course, who also provided us with this week's video tip.
If you could be one tour pro in history, who would it be and why?
It would have to be Arnold Palmer, he was the beginning of the modern golf era. Not only was he a great player, he was an ambassador to the game of golf and continues to be a charismatic, endearing figure that everyone can relate to. He truly loves the game of golf and wants everyone to share his passion.
Greatest day playing golf?
While I have played many great courses over the last 25 years, I would say it was the day I passed my Playing Ability Test to enter the PGA of America back in 1996. My father had taken the day off of work (which was a big deal back then) to caddy for me and I was very nervous to play well that day. I was 2 over par going into the 9th hole of the 36 holes I would play that day. From 140 yards, I holed my second shot to finish at even par for the first 9 and I never was over par again that day. It was special to share that with my father.
If you weren't a golf pro, what would you be?
I think I would be in some sort of problem solving position, where you need to think clearly, quickly and objectively to solve complex problems. Teaching golf can be similar. Students want to see immediate results from a lesson, but the instructor must be careful to not overload the student with too much information. There must be a confident approach with the information and a structured, meaningful approach to deliver it.
Will Tiger Woods surpass Jack Nicklaus' record for major titles?
The talent and desire say yes, but with each passing year, it will certainly become more and more difficult. This year's courses all suit his game well, but I guess you could say that about any course that Tiger plays. It is 50/50 at this point.
What golf rule would you most like to change?
Based on the announcement this week, I would NOT ban anchoring in putting. Golf needs to be easier to get more people playing and keep our current players playing. I don't know why the governing bodies of golf are trying make it harder. Long putters have been around for more than 30 years and all of the sudden they are an unfair advantage? Crazy
What's your favorite major championship and why?
The Masters is, by far, my favorite event of the year. Growing up in the Midwest, it was always the kick-off to the golf season. I was fortunate enough to go to the tournament in 2002 with my father, and it was the experience of a lifetime. If a true golfer has not gone, it should be on their bucket list. No matter what is going on in my life or at work, I watch all of the Sunday coverage from start to finish - every year.

Re: We want nvidia linux powerpc drivers !!
For once I agree with Martin, there's no good technical reason to withhold specifications on hardware that it either not inventive or complex (SATA, GbE implementations), rooted in specifications anyway, or on hardware that is now obsolete.
By doing so, they are just trying to control their consumer's ability to continue to use the hardware in whatever way they wish (and for as long as they like). Remember that although some people will claim we're being "unfair" asking NVIDIA to "spend money and developer resources" on writing drivers or specifications, bare in mind that we're still paying the $150 for the cards and we expect to be able to use them on any moderately common hardware/software combination. I'd prefer specifications to drivers. I know open drivers would suit Linux better. Everybody does.
As far as I am aware, most companies concerned about IP but which respect their customers' right to use hardware without officially supported drivers have come to a happy medium -- anything "intellectual" in the design of their hardware is obfuscated/wrapped with a firmware that exists either in an EEPROM or which can be loaded into memory every time the device is started. Such firmware is obfuscated to prevent reverse engineering, but is not necessarily architecture specific (making open, portable drivers more feasible). If Intel can do it with Centrino, I can see no reason why video card vendors couldn't do it with graphics hardware.
Then you just release specs regarding a subset of the hardware's modes and registers, and we can forget about driver optimisations (which somebody will eventually reinvent).
(This is, of course, all a pipe dream, but it's probably rooted in logic and I maintain that it's always better to be vocal on a subject so that the company might some day listen, instead of expecting them to Just Know).

How this Asian bird became a common sight around the world
Photo: Tony Carado/MNN Flickr Group
Gaining ground by being hunted
The common pheasant is a favorite among hunters and has been for thousands of years. But unlike most species that humans love to kill and eat, rather than going extinct, this bird has become one of the world's most widespread. Originally native to Asia, the common pheasant has been able to spread around the world as hunters have introduced it to new areas. The species become naturalized in Great Britain as far back as the 10th century AD when it arrived via the Romans, and can be found in many other places across Europe as well as Hawaii, New Zealand, and Tasmania among other countries. It was introduced to the U.S. in 1881 where it maintains its status as a favorite game bird among hunters, and has naturalized itself throughout the Rocky Mountain states, the Midwest, the Great Plains and can be found from Canada down to Mexico. As many as a million birds each year are bagged by thousands of hunters. And it is so loved in the states that South Dakota named it the state bird, despite the fact that it isa non-native species. It is one of the rare species where being perfect for hunting has helped the species gain a toehold across the world, rather than be wiped out.

This song was recorded about a year after Pick ( my record with The Travelin' McCoury's) came out. The idea was to push another song from the Pick album to radio and to have an unreleased single to accompany it and I had this song, The Drop, which my wife and I made up while discretely drinking on the beach last summer while our kids got pounded by waves. So, I pitched it to the The McCoury's and flew to Nashville to record it. Turns out I liked the song way more than everybody else did…. so the original recording of this song sat lonely in some dank dark corner of a hard drive.

Grocery Store Cabbage Still Alive And On A Circadian Rhythm
Michael Harper for redOrbit.com – Your Universe Online
A new study from Rice University and the University of California at Davis (UC Davis) could have vegetarians questioning their motivations for avoiding meat. According to these researchers, vegetables are still very much alive even after they've been harvested, and are even beholden to the circadian rhythms of dark and light schedules. What's more, these vegetables might even be healthier for us at certain times of the day, say the researchers. Rice biologist Janet Braam led the research which appears in this week's edition of the journal Current Biology and suggests perhaps we should begin to take a new look at how we store our vegetables.
"Vegetables and fruits, even after harvest, can respond to light signals and consequently change their biology in ways that may affect health value and insect resistance," said Braam in a press statement.
"Perhaps we should be storing our vegetables and fruits under light-dark cycles and timing when to cook and eat them to enhance their health value."
Braam and team found in their research that plants could change their physiology at different parts of the day. This change seems to be driven by circadian rhythms, or the shifts between light and dark periods in the day. Plants and vegetables are composed of many different parts, like modules and leaves. As these elements are able to live independently of each other, they are able to continue living even after the vegetable has been removed from the ground. The researchers discovered this by subjecting blueberries, cabbage, carrots and squash to simulated light and dark cycles in the lab. Even after the plants had been harvested, they continued to change their chemical makeup in accordance with the light cycles.
Braam worked with Rice graduate student Danielle Goodspeed to get the vegetables on a regular cycle between dark and light periods. After locking them in a lighted and sealed chamber, the researchers studied several different fruits and vegetables and measured their chemical levels at different points of the simulated day.
"We were able to entrain each of them, even the root vegetables," said Goodspeed in a statement.
Of course this study could mean storing fruits and veggies in dark refrigerators could hinder their ability to cycle through their chemical production.
These vegetables have a reason for staying alive after harvest. Braam believes (and has previously shown) vegetables like cabbage, spinach and others alter the levels of important chemicals in their leaves to keep insects and other herbivores at bay during the nighttime. When the test veggies were placed in simulated day and night conditions, they suffered less damage from hungry insects. This, says Braam could mean humans gain more cancer fighting phytochemicals when eaten at just the right moment.
"We cannot yet say whether all-dark or all-light conditions shorten the shelf life of fruits and vegetables," said Braam.
"What we have shown is that keeping the internal clock ticking is advantageous with respect to insect resistance and could also yield health benefits.
"It may be of interest to harvest crops and freeze or otherwise preserve them at specific times of day, when nutrients and valuable phytochemicals are at their peak."
Circadian rhythms are known to be important parts of all living things, especially the human body. Previous studies have found the regular cycle of the circadian rhythm is responsible for producing amino acids, carbohydrates and lipids in humans and that it can even influence the way we metabolize our food.

Why is Federer the best?
Roger Federer, ATP #1.
Simple question.. What does he do so well that excels him from every other player?
Actually, he loses to others. He's just been playing a lot of tournaments, which gave him points to be #1.
roger is the best because of the combination of his speed, court vision, technique and overall knowledge of the game
he might not be the fastest, hardest hitter out there but he excels in so many areas where other players might just be amazing in one particular niche...
Movement and anticipation. He seems to see the points unfold better than anyone else. He always seems to be perfectly balanced, in the perfect position, and never seems rushed. Think about how few times you see other players hit clean winners against him. It has to be extraordinarily frustrating for them, and when you add in the offensive firepower he possesses, you have a dominant player.
Federer has only lost to Nadal and Murray so far this year.
Roger does not play lots more of tournaments than anyone else in the top 15 to remain number 1. If you win the majors and top level masters tournaments yes you will remain #1. You gain more points to your ranking with results in majors and top level atp tournaments.
I don't know the answer to this one, but has there ever been anyone that has won at least 2 grand slams in a calendar year and not be #1?
I can answer your question. He's found his center just like expert martial artists. That is what sets him apart from the pack. Near perfect balance is his main strength.
He watches the ball all the way, he moves very smoothly on the court and is usually at the right place at the right time. He can hit winners on both wings and also is very good at blocking balls back and playing defense when he has too. He keeps his calm and plays with confidence. He vollies, serves, basically does everything very well so he doesn't have many weaknesses. Most players will attack his backhand, but it's probably the best one-handed backhand in the game.
Because he's not human...
^ haha.. that's funny.
Federer is a pretty good returner and doesn't get hyped, angry or overexcited when he plays. He has Great swings that produce speed rather than looking like he's forcing anything really. He's simply the best.
He's the best on hard court and grass.
A combination of talent (like Safin, Rios, McEnroe or Leconte), athleticism (like Lendl, Rafter or Muster), work ethics and professionalism (like Lendl), mental fortitude (like Sampras or Agassi), splendid footwork, balance and movement (like Edberg or Laver).
Federer is the balanced player: instinctive yet a hard worker, technically he is both old school (grips, one hander, slice BHs) and modern (open stance, power). Tactically he's both a great defender and a super aggressive player. His capacity to switch from defense to offense is second to none. His second shot (after the serve) is probably the best on tour. He's got a precise game plan and can adapt it to the situation. He's a great server and returner, two key shots. He's got a deadly weapon in his FH. His net game is very efficient and fluid. He's the only one to keep his head still that long after the shot, which maybe is one of his secrets (though it leads to spectacular misses sometimes).
He's so complete that you wonder sometimes what happens in certain matches where some records are on the line: why did he stay back so much and let Rafa attack his BH in the FO finals this year ? Why did he enter Cinci and tank against Murray ?
This guy remains a mystery...
Actually guys, it's because he uses a racquet with a 88"-90" (depending on who you ask) headsize. :mrgreen:
Well all of the above was true, at one point. Now there is so much "mystique" about him that he has a tremendous advantage, Mentally before they open the cans of balls. There have been quite a few matches recently that he really should have lost, but he hit a couple of great shots, the other guy crumbled Mentally and he breezed to a comeback win.
At this point, if your name isn't Nadal, you're quaking in your boots as soon as you look at the draw and the chance of you playing near your best for the entire match is pretty low.
It's easier to dominate a crowd who feel dominated...
Because he is biomechanically, tactically, and physically sound plus he has this court and ball sense. He reads his opponents well and he anticipates well. He has this sixth sense, I guess.
He does not lose that much (around 2 losses per year) and he does not have excessive tournament playing schedule! He is number one because he wins major slams and bigger tournaments such as Masters Events.
in 1989, Boris Becker won the Wimbledon and the US Open, but at the end of 1989, Ivan Lendl was the number 1 player in the ATP Ranking.
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong...
What Roger has that all other players lack is strategy, he has certain "Plays" just like in basketball or ther games where you have a strategy to win by making openings.
It is very very rare you will catch Roger baslining someone, he attempts to make openings and then scores.
Other players are just trying to hit hard fromt he baseline, or grind it to force the error, ect.
These are all ignorant ways to play tennis IMO, and Roger's type of game will be adopted as the new way to play tennis.
You don't need big or special anything, you just simply need the right shot at that right time.
You've been gone that long and you come back right away making personal attacks act like an @$$hole?
What part of I MY OPINION don't you get old man?:mrgreen:
Most of these other players are just hoping for an opening, hoping that the oponent will mess up, or they try hitting heavy spin fast shots ect and those are low percentage shots.
We see people using more and more powerful rackets, and you moronicly tell me that is for strategy?
No that is for moronic bashing which many hated the Williams for.
Roger plays real tennis, full bodied tennis, does not depend on a big serve, ect he depends on his brain.
Just look at how far Andy Roddick has gotten how that he has adopted a more intelligent game plane for his tennis.
Fact is Roger can open up anyone, why? Because he is smart and has the right racket, not some tweener.
He has many plays for just about every scienario, if you do this he will do that to get you back out of position and him back in position.
I see so many of the pros just hitting hard and hopeing for the best, how is that tennis? That is why Roger is one of the best clay courters right now, then all the basher crap right out, why is that?
Roger is not super fast, strong, fit, ect ect he has none of that, not a super racket that hits 155mph serves, his tennis depends on strategy full technique on each and every shot, nobody hits the ball as well or as clean.
That is not talent that is dedication to each shot
and quit being an @$$, so much for your religious thread and your spirituality:rolleyes:
Also I am anything but a Roger fan, I dislike his as a person, he acts a lot like you LOL

Harry Styles has got a pretttyyyy serious reputation for liking older women *cough* Caroline Flack *cough* but the One Direction star has insisted he is NOT a cougar.
Harry Styles says he is not a cougar. Copyright [Wenn]
The 18-year-old One Direction singer, who got serious flack for dating the 32-year-old Xtra Factor presenter, says the idea he's only after older women is totally fabricated.
He told The Sun: "I don't know where the cougar thing came from to be honest. I don't know why people got that impression."
And although just a week ago the 1D rumour mill went into overdrive over Harry Styles' reported relationship with Inbetweeners star Emily Atack (who is 22), he said there is nothing going on there.

Hazza set the record straight saying: "I don't know where anyone got the idea that she's my girlfriend. We've only met a couple of times. We're only friends. I didn't even kiss her."
Well that settles that then.
We got rather excited last week at the news that BOTH Niall Horan and Harry Styles are single - with Niall fessing up at the MIB3 premiere in New York.

And Louis Tomlinson told reporters that Harry is on the market too.
One member of the band who ISN'T up for the taking is Zayn Malik, who is all loved-up with Little Mix star Perrie Edwards.
Last week he exclusively told us that he sees a lot of her and gives her advice on how to get on in the music world.
He said: "Obviously I see Perrie quite a bit. The only piece of advice I can give her is to work hard and hope for the best. Because that's what we did and that's pretty much all there is to it."
Meanwhile the One Direction boys are gigging in the US - with hoards of screaming fans everywhere they go.

Israel's Deaf-Blind Theater Ensemble Arrives
Nalaga'at gives American theatergoers a new experience
Conceived and directed by Adina Tal, ¨Not By Bread Alone¨ is a production by Nalaga´at, the world's only deaf-blind theater ensemble. While the actors cannot see or hear though, the loud applause over the last weekend of the New York showing may have confirmed that the play successfully bridged the communicative gap between cast and audience.
¨It was received very well, and the New York audience is a great audience, said Tal, in an interview at the NYU Skirball Center for Performing Arts. ¨It transcends so many cultures, it´s about humanity and the human spirit.¨
The entire performance happens in the time it takes the 11-member cast to bake bread in onstage ovens, and as the aroma wafts around the audience, the show becomes a true sensory experience. The actors rely on tactile signals from one another and they produce sights and sounds for the audience in a series of lively vignettes about their memories and dreams.
¨Welcome to our darkness and silence. We invite you to share our everyday lives together,¨ says actor Itzik Hanuna at the beginning of the show.
Over the two years that the actors rehearsed for the play, the cast established functional elements that helped them to navigate their surroundings and interact with the audience. The rhythm of a drum cues a scene change, for example, even though most of the actors cannot see the instrument or hear its booming sound. The actors learned how to sense the vibrations created by the instrument, however, and the sound cues a scene change. Similarly, the warmth given off by heat lamps helps the actors find their position onstage.
As such, the storyline itself reiterates that the actors are blind and deaf, but the actors´ movements and body language during the performance can even make their disabilities easy to forget. But while every part of the show is planned meticulously, the story of the deaf-blind theater troupe itself happened more by coincidence. More than ten years ago, Tal reluctantly gave a workshop to a class of deaf-blind people, and it ended up changing her life.
Following a few successful performances early on, the director helped convert a vacant warehouse with no electricity or water into the thriving Nalaga´at cultural center at the Jaffa Port in Tel-Aviv in 2002. Since the center's opening, it has developed and produced innovative ventures such as acting workshops for the deaf and blind, a restaurant with blind waiters, and a coffee shop with deaf waiters.
For now though, Tal remains unsure how the Nalaga´at Center has benefitted from all the attention, but she does mention it´s just the beginning. ¨We´ve gotten interest from all over the US. People flew here just to see the show because it was cheaper than flying to Israel to see it,¨ she said. ¨Could you mention we could still use some funding in your article though?¨

Coronary revascularization in patients with stable coronary artery disease is underused in those who are considered candidates for the procedure, resulting in worse outcomes than among those who are treated invasively according to appropriate use criteria. Researchers reported in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology that in cases where criteria were followed, revascularization reduced the three-year risk of death or recurrent ACS. Although the study suggested some patients being treated invasively did not meet criteria, "there are also patients who would benefit from revascularization and are not getting it," said lead author Dr. Dennis Ko.

All they want is the appearance (to the casual fan) that the sport is clean.

ClassicsOnline Home » JOYCE, J.: Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (A) (Abridged)
In A Portrait of The Artist as a Young Man, Joyce describes the early life of Stephen Dedalus: significant memories from infancy, schooldays, family life, his first taste of sin, guilt, repentance—and his passage to freedom as he elects to leave Ireland for ever. This is, in effect, autobiography. Stephen is Joyce; every person he encounters and every incident he experiences, is drawn from life. The writing, though, displays the colour and imagination of the very finest fiction, in language which cries out to be read aloud.
James Joyce
A Portrait of The Artist
as a Young Man
'Once upon a time and a very good time it was, there was a
moocow coming down along the road and this moocow that was coming down along
the road met a nicens little boy named baby tuckoo…'
So begins the first great novel by one of the twentieth
century's most innovative writers. Here, in the opening pages of A Portrait of
the Artist a Young Man, Joyce recreates not merely the memories of childhood
but the language, sounds and
sensations of childhood too. He recreates them rather than
describes them, and
the reader is immediately drawn into the half-remembered
world of infancy by the rhythm and flavor of Joyce's poetic prose. The
childhood remembered is that of Joyce himself (though for the purposes of the
novel he has another name: Stephen Dedalus), and the incidents recalled are all
incidents from Joyce's own early days growing up in Ireland at the end of the
last century. The biography is in many ways unremarkable — a school life,
family background, growing political and religious awareness and transition to
manhood undoubtedly shared by Joyce with countless other young Irishmen. What
makes this biography so special is that its protagonist is clearly not
unremarkable, and that his perception and analysis of events and people around
him mark him out from others. His description of a Christmas dinner, which
turns into a rowdy political argument about the role of the church in the
downfall of the nationalist leader Parnell, is more than a vivid memory for
Joyce. It marks the beginning of his own awareness of the meaning of betrayal.
And when at school he suffers the indignity and pain of a wrongful thrashing,
his success in demanding justice gives him his first lesson in self-confidence
and his first taste for heroism.
With the second chapter of the book Stephen begins his long
journey to
independence. On his journey to Cork with his father, he
senses already that his father's world is one he cannot share. Here, Joyce
introduces the first startling moment of realization, an epiphany of sorts,
when Stephen observes the word foetus carved into a desk at his father's old
college. The word both revolts him and reminds him of his own need to grow from
his embryonic and vulgar state, returning to his mind for several hours
afterwards. Soon after this, a further significant step towards manhood is
encountered in the dark streets of the brothel area, and Stephen begins a swift
descent into inner turmoil, made more unbearable by the vivid imagery of a
sermon on Hell delivered to pupils during a weekend retreat at his school.
"Every word of it was for him. Against his sin, foul and secret, the whole
wrath of God was aimed. Shocked into repentance, Stephen makes confession and
adopts a more sober way of life, even being offered the opportunity to put
himself forward for training to the priesthood. The realization that such a
life is not for him, however, is most vividly conveyed when he experiences another
'epiphany' in the form of a girl standing in the shallows gazing out to sea.
The magic of this moment and the meeting of their eyes trigger the start of the
final phase of Stephen's journey to freedom. In the final chapter, the
confident young university student grapples with matters of language and
aesthetics. In a delightful scene with the Dean of Studies, the use of the word
'funnel' rather than the Irish word 'tundish' reminds Stephen that for him the
English language is "an acquired speech. I have not made or accepted its
Here, finally, is Stephen/Joyce, the artist who is about to
leave Ireland forever,
to continue to grapple with and force into submission the
words of the English
language, and with them to paint the Ireland of his youth
for the enlightenment of readers in all parts of the world. For Stephen, like
the Daedalus of mythology, is to soar high above ordinary folk, above matters
of race or religion, and ultimately above art.

Mobility Scooter training, when?
Likes # 0
Posted June 12, 2013 at 5:40PM
We have discussed this before but here we go again.
After seeing this article about a Mobility scooter hit and run, when will training or licensing be introduced?
I was nearly knocked over by one a few years ago and I also saw an elderly man get on his scooter and with steering in a full lock went into reverse, span round in a circle and tipped over, fortunately it was in a very open area but could easily have been in a confined place with pedestrians.
There have also been reports of these thing going along motorways!

Who would do the necessary training and licensing, the company selling the product, the local council or a government test centre. Then there will be the usual comments about costs?.
I have a mobility scooter (in reserve for that day), my late brother and sister in law both had a mobility scooter, but both just couldn't get on with it. My sister also as one, and only recently she had another rider of a mobility scooter ride into her, causing damage to her mobility scooter, The offender simply drove away, stating that they had no insurance of money, so basically it was tough luck. That cost my sister, or at least her insurance £600 to put that incident to rest.
So something as to be done, but what and by whom?.
And please don't tell me it might be discrimination?.

I depend on my EMV (Electric Mobility Vehicle) for my independence, and I agree that training should be given to new users many of whom have never driven anything at all. As most regulars here know, I am a retired Driving Instructor so I am a firm believer in vehicle training, of any sort.
As far as licensing is concerned, it is already law that EMVs capable of a speed of 12KPH must be registered at DVLA and must display a normal Tax Disc, just like any other road vehicle. EMVs capable of that speed will also have Lights/Horn/Hazard Warning (audio and visual) and Indicators. They must also have full Insurance.

spuds Training should be done by the Suppliers, which I believe should be free - after all EMVs are not cheap!
For those buying used EMVs privately, then they should be tested by either the Police or by their local Driving School(s).

BTW, I was also the victim of a EMV hit-and-run which caused £150 damage to my EMV - an elderly person on another EMV reversed into mine without looking backwards first, he did not even have rear-view mirrors, I could not reverse out of his way due to a lady with a baby buggy immediately behind me! Fortunately I had several independent witnesses who gave me their details so I had no problem getting it sorted via my EMV Insurer.

Nontek - I have seen some of the supplier's training courses, which may consist of a few verbal or 'active' instructions and a ride along a road. My concern if the supplier took on the role, would any licencing show favouritism towards a customer and a sales?.
I think a reasonable option might be a local council, who would have contact with persons with the appropriate credentials. In my area, one of the main council's already run refresher courses for elderly motorist's, and special training course for school's whose pupils want to gain pre-licence training for motor vehicle, motor bikes and bicycles.

I'm surprised that the supermarkets haven't restricted the use of personal high speed scooters in their stores to their own slow but safe shopping scooters.
The other week I was in Morrisons and a not too old (40is) person was careering around recklessly in what I think must have been an electric Sherman. If I was the store manager and saw that, I'd have just turfed them out despite the risk of the PC brigade being sent in.

Not sure what you mean by privately?
Aren't they all bought that way?

I meant - those who buy second-hand via ads in newspapers and shop windows and who have in many cases never driven any sort of vehicle, rather then those bought in Mobility shops.
Also many, like myself, have theirs provided by the Royal British Legion who do give some training, even more so since the problems in the Middle East - most of whom could already drive normally, prior to their need.
Probably still not explained very well, but I am sure most would understand.

It was the Dharmapuri Collector and the Superintendent of Police who kept our hopes alive throughout the night by talking to us over public address system, said the four persons who were rescued from the Cauvery River by Indian Air Force personnel.
C. Madhappan alias Durairaj (56) and coracle operators G. Muthu (43), R. Sahadeven (28) and M. Ramakrishnan (47) climbed on to trees to escape the flood fury as the Cauvery was in full flow.
Madhavan was washed away by the floods while he was taking bath on Sunday afternoon near Muthalaipannai. He caught hold of a tree branch in the nick of time to escape being washed into the main falls. The other three, who set out on a coracle to rescue him, jumped into the river later when they found it impossible to steer away from the falls.
Madhavan told that though he was diabetic, he survived over 18 hours only on the hope of rescue held out by the Collector K. Vivekanandan and Superintendent of Police Asra Garg. "We endured pounding rain and ant and insect bites throughout the night only because the officials and the public, who whistled often, kept our hopes alive," said Madhappan.
Ramakrishnan said the Indian Air Force personnel found it difficult to locate the tree in which they were perched on. Hence, he climbed to the top of the tree and waved at them.
Dupe for MGR
Madhavan's family members said he was a dupe for M.G. Ramachandran in a scene that showed the actor diving into the River Cauvery at Hogenakkal Falls in the film "Adimaippen." Ramakrishnan's family members said he had saved three or four lives earlier from strong currents in the river, but this time things were beyond him.

CHICAGO (AP) — New research provides clear proof that weight-loss surgery can reverse and possibly cure diabetes. Doctors say it should be offered sooner to more people with the disease — not just as a last resort.
Two studies compared stomach-reducing operations with medicines alone for obese people with Type 2 diabetes. Millions of Americans have this and can't make enough insulin or effectively use what they do make.
The studies found that surgery helped far more patients achieve normal blood-sugar levels than drugs alone did. Some people were able to stop taking insulin as soon as three days after their operations.
The studies were published online by the New England Journal of Medicine and one was presented Monday at a cardiology conference in Chicago.

If you're going to use a Thin Lizzy riff for your own song, as did Boy Girl Boy Girl at the Turf Club a couple of Fridays ago, you need to be bold about it. But it seems unsportsmanlike to knock the group, who were down a girl--bassist Nikki Moeller, also of the Keep Aways--for the Turf's "Duluth Invades the Twin Cities" showcase. Fellow invaders from the Retribution Gospel Choir kindly took turns filling in on bass, though they didn't really know how to play the songs. Even RGC's Alan Sparhawk (of Low fame) needs to warm up at least once before playing a "Jailbreak" doppelgänger. Next the Choir started its own set, minus sometime-member Mark Kozelek (Red House Painters, Sun Kil Moon). Sparhawk's harmonies with drummer Eric Pollard were wistful and dead-on, and for someone revered for his lovely expressions of sadness, Sparhawk was smiling more often than not as he pumped his Les Paul's whammy bar, ending with a cover of Neil Young's "Down by the River." Two girls parked on stools near the stage had no idea who Sparhawk was and didn't seem to care--they were blissfully waiting for the headliners, Trampled by Turtles (pictured), who play a fast, stomping bluegrass that inverts the normal poses of audience and band. The Turtles mainly sit down to rock out, while their fans stand up, jump around, and, this time, fill out the empty floor space in front of the Turf Club stage all the way to bar close.
