That said, it's really not as difficult as it looks. Each letter (m, r, d) is pronounced pretty much like in Spanish. The sounds are strung together, which is the tricky part, since Spanish/Portuguese don't put consonants together like that.
By the way, the z is actually a , which is pronounced like the zh in Doctor Zhivago
Can anyone help Trigo out further? Is there an online pronunciator?

But I'll try to explain a bit differently than the earlier poster, and hopefully come closer for you to get it right.
For starters I wouldn't bother with a string of consonants, but instead bring your attention to the middle and end of the surname. In Mr
the letters in boldface are pronounced exactly the same way you guys would pronounce "
de Ja
neiro" in Portuguese, but obviously without the pause between the words. The first two letters (Mr) are pronounced the way they would be in Spanish if I could find an example of this consonant combo, so let's say like in their "mar" minus the vowel. Oh, and in her surname the stress is on the "r", not on the "e" as many foreigners would probably assume.
Hope this helps

First of all, thanks for the attention!
I think I got the sound.
But the real problem is the no-vowel combo in the begginig!
"mar" minus the vowel
does not make ANY sense to my latin-speaking mind!!!
We need vowels to make sounds, guys!!!
Anyway, I'll stick with the sound of "murder" as suggested.
Hope it's close enough... :S

The slower than expected start to the run has left many wondering if the run is late, smaller than forecast, or about to arrive in one big "wall of fish."
The Republican Senator Dan Sullivan spoke to several dozen at an informal reception Wednesday afternoon.
Two men have been sentenced in U.S. District Court to serve 21 months in federal prison for burglarizing the post office in Sand Point.
Hosted by Elijah Hunt.
Fishing on Dillingham beaches goes down to three days a week until July 17, ahead of what is usually the peak of the sockeye run.
Smokejumpers sent to Paul's Creek fire; Kokwok Fire is nearly out; new fire burns NE of Twin Hills
Despite a bit of rain and humidity in recent days, the state says Southwest Alaska is still in extreme wildfire danger. There are 75 fires burning in Southwest as of Tuesday morning.
Division of Forestry spokesman Francis Mitchell says firefighters responded to the 8500-acre fire Paul's Creek NE of Naknek Tuesday:
Sen. Murkowski will visit Iguigig, Sen. Sullivan Dillingham, and all three are expected to attend a private fundraiser in King Salmon.
The two groups of processors at odds over who can put the Marine Stewardship Council's blue sustainability label on their fish appear to be at an impasse.
Chinook salmon returning to ten Alaska rivers - including the Nushagak - are smaller and younger than they were just three decades ago, according to a recent study done by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game.
Unnamed 21-year-old was believed to be highly intoxicated. He was pulled from the water by another skiff, and taken to hospital.
The bear cams at Brooks Camp, first installed by Explore.org in 2012, have a massive and dedicated online following.
Every summer BBEDC holds salmon camps for middle school and high school kids from CDQ communities.
The state has dropped its case against Kevin Harless, 52, who had been accused of dealing marijuana in Togiak in 2013. KDLG's Dave Bendinger has more:
This summer's active wildfire season is putting a damper on Fourth of July sales for a longtime local fireworks business.

bunions are causing pain, don't give up exercise.
Instead, switch to activities that don't cause pain.
Wearing comfortable, roomy athletic shoes that give your toes plenty
of room will help you stay active. For both men and women, men's shoes are a
good choice because they have wider toe boxes. Consider making a small cut in
an athletic shoe directly over the bunion to relieve pressure.
Apply ice to the bunion and elevate your foot after exercise that
causes pain. This will help reduce the inflammation.

Will the Real AI Critics Please Stand Up?
I'm having great trouble finding any citeable work that argues that artificial intelligence is completely impossible. People throw kiwis at AI theory in its current state, or the philosophy of functionalism, but every single argument I can find stops short of outright denunciation.
For instance, Gerald Edelman, winner of the 1972 Nobel Prize in Medicine and coiner of the term "Neural Darwinism", argues that "AI" is impossible, expelling much hot air on the subject, but then it turns out that he believes, "It seems reasonably feasible that, in the future, once neuroscientists learn much more about consciousness and its mechanism, why not imitate it?", and remarks "We construct what we call brain-based devices, or BBDs, which I think will be increasingly useful in understanding how the brain works and modeling the brain. But it also may be the beginning of the design of truly intelligent machines." So that's not very anti-AI. Edelman was also quoted in John Horgan's recent anti-Singularity piece in IEEE Spectrum, the "Consciousness Conundrum", …
Why Human-Level AI Won't Change the World
One position I have difficulty wrapping my head around is the position held by those who believe that human-level AI is possible but that it would lack the capability to quickly change the world. The reasons for why AI would likely have that capability are frequently cited. To summarize just a few:
1) AI could quickly and easily be copied as many times as is computationally feasible.
2) Running on a flexible substrate, AI could "overclock" their cognitive functions, leading to enhanced intelligence and capability.
3) Though robotics today is still maturing, it will be more sophisticated by the time AI arrives, and with AI's help, it isn't unreasonable to assume that AIs will have direct and broad access to the physical world through robotic means.
4) AIs would be able to share thoughts almost instantly, meaning that skills learned by one AI could be transferred to all other AIs very quickly.
5) AIs would be able to quickly and automatically perform tasks considered by humans to be "extremely boring", but still pragmatically useful.
6) AIs could routinely perform intellectually …
Missing: Robot Ethics Charter
Researching the current state of "roboethics" (a lame term that marginalizes "AI ethics", a more-relevant superset of roboethics), I find a bunch of references to a South Korean project to draft a Robot Ethics Charter. All these references occur in March 2007, and they promised the ethics charter would be released in April 2007 and subsequently adopted by the government. However, I can't find it anywhere. Anyone have a clue about where it went? One article summarized the effort as follows:
The prospect of intelligent robots serving the general public brings up an unprecedented question of how robots and humans should be expected to treat each other. South Korea's Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy has decided that a written code of ethics is in order.
Starting last November, a team of five members, including a science-fiction writer, have been drafting a Robot Ethics Charter to address and prevent "robot abuse of humans and human abuse of robots." Some of the sensitive …
Two Papers You Should Read
Some of you may have seen these papers already, as I mention them frequently, but they'll important enough that I like to re-mention them regularly. They're "Artificial Intelligence as a Positive and Negative Factor in Global Risk" by Eliezer Yudkowsky and "The Basic AI Drives" by Steve Omohundro. The papers are 42 and 11 pages, respectively. There's no abstract for the first paper, but here's the abstract for the second:
"One might imagine that AI systems with harmless goals will be harmless. This paper instead shows that intelligent systems will need to be carefully designed to prevent them from behaving in harmful ways. We identify a number of "drives†that will appear in sufficiently advanced AI systems of any design. We call them drives because they are tendencies which will be present unless explicitly counteracted. We start by showing that goal-seeking systems will have drives to model their own operation and to improve themselves. We then show that self-improving systems will be driven to clarify their goals and represent them …
Conscious Thought Leads to Better Decisions
From Eurekalert, a press release titled, "Complex decision? Don't sleep on it":
Neither snap judgements nor sleeping on a problem are any better than conscious thinking for making complex decisions, according to new research.
The finding debunks a controversial 2006 research result asserting that unconscious thought is superior for complex decisions, such as buying a house or car. If anything, the new study suggests that conscious thought leads to better choices.
Since its publication two years ago by a Dutch research team in the journal Science, the earlier finding had been used to encourage decision-makers to make "snap" decisions (for example, in the best-selling book Blink, by Malcolm Gladwell) or to leave complex choices to the powers of unconscious thought ("Sleep on it", Dijksterhuis et al., Science, 2006).
At stake in these conscious/unconscious thought experiments (literally) is a wider philosophical argument about the value of intuition and hunches. We want to think that hunches produce better decisions, and have been taught since we were children that this is an …
Interview with Dr. Steel
Dr. Phineas Waldolf Steel is a mentally twisted but awe-inspiring figure whose interests span the production of propaganda, the construction of chronically malfunctioning robots, puppet shows, and an ongoing attempt to become World Emperor for the purpose of turning this planet into a Utopian Playland. His growing movement aims to move beyond conflict and war to forge a world that makes fun the top priority. His multi-faceted persona is an example of what people can do when they are highly creative in a variety of cultural areas.
Dr. Steel is an entertainer, leader, musician, artist, and thinker. If you're interested in finding out more about him, check out his website. The laboratory in the toyland section is particularly entertaining. As an independent artist, Dr. Steel hasn't sold out to any record companies yet, though I'm sure that he would accept a big contract if it were part of his master plan for world domination. His music has been described as "hip-hop …
Funding Secured for Diamondoid Mechanosynthesis Research
Finally, some serious research will experimentally explore the possibility of diamondoid mechanosynthesis (DMS). This research will be conducted in the UK. Here's the first paragraph of the press release:
Professor Philip Moriarty of the Nanoscience Group in the School of Physics at the University of Nottingham (U.K.) has been awarded a five-year £1.53M ($3M) grant by the U.K. Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) to perform a series of laboratory experiments designed to investigate the possibility of diamond mechanosynthesis (DMS). DMS is a proposed method for building diamond nanostructures, atom by atom, using the techniques of scanning probe microscopy under ultra-high vacuum conditions. Moriarty's project, titled "Digital Matter? Towards Mechanised Mechanosynthesis,†was funded under the Leadership Fellowship program of EPSRC. Moriarty's experiments begin in October 2008.
If reliable DMS is possible, it could eventually lead to full-fledged molecular nanotechnology, which would have diverse applications, many of them dangerous. Advocates of MNT traditionally overestimate the probability of MNT being possible at all while underestimating the negative …
What is the Singularity?
The Singularity has nothing to do with the acceleration of technological progress. It is only somewhat related to interdisciplinary convergence. The universe is not specially structured for the Singularity to happen. History has not been particularly leading up to it, except in the sense that inventing new technologies gets easier when civilization has more advanced building tools and knowledge. The Singularity is the creation of smarter-than-human intelligence, nothing less, and nothing more.
The Singularity is not a belief system. It is a likely (but by no means certain) future event with great potential for good and for ill. Sort of like nuclear technology, if nuclear technology could invent more advanced technologies on its own and have independent goals. Kind of scary, really.
The Singularity is a hurdle for the human species to jump, not a stairway to Heaven. It could fairly easily be avoided or delayed, either by blowing up most of the major cities, detonating H-bombs in the upper atmosphere (EMP), someone taking over the world, etc.
The Singularity is not mystical because intelligence is not mystical. …

Vernor Vinge's Latest Take on the Singularity
Vernor Vinge has an interesting and somewhat unique take on the Singularity, ironic because all the spinoffs are based on his original definition. However, I regularly disagree with some of his points.
One of the points he frequently makes is that a hard takeoff (superintelligence nearly overnight) would necessarily be bad. I disagree — there are likely to be bad hard takeoffs, and good hard takeoffs. If the superintelligence in question actually cares about human beings, then surely its "hard takeoff" could be orchestrated in such a manner that everyone benefits and no one has their life "flip turned upside down". On the other side of the coin, if the superintelligence didn't give a damn about human beings, then we'd likely have our constituent atoms rearranged into something it considers more "interesting", like a cosmic whiteboard for its beloved mathematical equations.
Favoring a hard or soft takeoff is not like picking between chocolate and vanilla ice cream. Instead of being based on a matter of human preference, it's likely that objective facts about the structure of cognition will dictate …
Support "The Singularity" Documentary
The Singularity Institute is requesting donations to support the completion of a documentary on the Singularity by Doug Wolens. Wolens is an experienced filmmaker who filmed Singularity Summit 2006 and 2007. Filming is 80% done, and Doug needs an additional $45,000 to complete the documentary in time for this winter's film festivals. He has already interviewed figures such as Ray Kurzweil, David Chalmers, and Peter Norvig. Excerpts of the interviews are available on the donations page.
Here's the blurb for the movie and an explanation of how it helps the Singularity Institute:
"The Singularity" is an investigation into the frontiers of scientific progress. Many important disciplines are coming together to drive this progress – nanotechnology, artificial intelligence, molecular biology, and more. "The Singularity" explores the current boundaries of this research, showing where the trends are leading, and how smashing the intelligence barrier will affect society.
In "The Singularity," award-winning documentary director Doug Wolens addresses vital questions for all of us: Exactly what is likely within our lifetimes? …

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Torrey Smith is a jack of all trades, and one thing youŌĆÖll never be able to say about him is that heŌĆÖs not prepared for life after football. While other Ravens were enjoying their last few weeks of being Super Bowl heroŌĆÖs, Smith spent most of March as a government intern for┬ĀMaryland U.S. Representative (D) Elijah Cummings according to baltimoreravens.com. Cummings works for the seventh district, which includes over half of Baltimore City and most of Howard County. Smith has a few more days left before he starts to prepare for another Super Bowl run. ŌĆ£I was handling files, reading letters, relaying them, typing up what sponsors say, printing stuff,ŌĆØ Smith said. ŌĆ£I was the office guy.ŌĆØ ŌĆ£It was fun though,ŌĆØ Smith said with a laugh. ŌĆ£I enjoyed it.ŌĆØ Smith was a criminal justice major at the University of Maryland, and decided that he wanted to try something different this off-season. He talked to Ravens Director of Player Development Harry Swayne, who got him the internship. ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs about seeing whatŌĆÖs out there,ŌĆØ Smith said. ŌĆ£As an athlete I feel like I always said, ŌĆśMan, I canŌĆÖt wait till I can just play football and I donŌĆÖt have to worry about school.ŌĆÖ Now that all we do is work out and you have the rest of the day, I feel like IŌĆÖm limiting myself if I donŌĆÖt do anything else.ŌĆØ Smith admitted that he learned a lot on his internship. I learned that there are really politicians that do a lot for their community ŌĆō [Cummings] being one of them,ŌĆØ Smith said. ŌĆ£You can literally call your congressman and any issue you have, they can basically point you in the right direction if they canŌĆÖt help you. I never really knew that. ŌĆ£Being on that side and seeing how they work, itŌĆÖs pretty cool. Their staff, they actually care. That says a lot when it comes to a city like Baltimore. You need people who are leaders and taking care of your area who really care.ŌĆØ

I know I may get thumbed down to hell, because of the love for him, but I really can't stand Matt Smith, he doesn't pull off dramatic scenes worth a damn. Where David Tennant can be goofy and all, whenever he wanted to be intimidating, he could be. With Matt Smith it always seems so silly when he tries to be intimidating, and I REALLY tried to like him, but I just can't do it.

The Castelli Diluvio Glove is your glove for cold and/or wet conditions. The Japanese neoprene is some of the highest quality available and this is what makes it so stretchy, comfortable and warm. The seams are constructed using the same technique as a wetsuit: the stitching is only on the outside, while the inside is thermo welded to make it smooth and completely waterproof. While the waterproofness is an obvious benefit in the rain, what's not so obvious is how good this glove is in the cold. It keeps your hands warm with the same function as a wetsuit for divers. It is completely non breathable, so your hand sweats but that moisture is immediately warmed to body temperature and stays warm. We figure it's better to have hands warm and wet than dry and cold, or worse yet wet and cold!

Tips for The Hesi Exit Exam That Could Help You Pass
The HESI exit exam is one tha determines whether you graduate from nursing school. After spending a lot of money on tuition, books and basically trying to make ends meet while in nursing school, being held back by this one exam can be disheartening. Here are a few tips that may help you get a good score on the HESI.
First of all, you need to buy the HESI book because most of the questions if not all of them can be answered by that book. It's called the HESI comprehensive nclex review i believe.Read the book from cover to cover and then turn your attention to the CD in the back of the book. Do all the questions on the CD and read the rationales.
Next, even though most of the answers for the HESI can be found in the HESI book, you need to get a review book like the Saunders book or the Prentice hall book. A review book can help you find information on places where you are weak pretty quickly and in a very concise fashion. That is, if you are weak on maternity medications, you can go to a review book and read up maternity medication under thirty minutes and know the information like the back of your hand.
Now, the HESI exam has a lot of medical surgical nursing type questions so i believe those aren't weighted as much as the other questions like the math questions. So, it is a good idea to practice different types of nursing calculations right before the exam so they are fresh on your mind. Do IV medications, pediatric medication, drip rates and as many other calculations as you can find. The Saunders or Prentice hall book should have chapters on calculations, if not, find a nursing calculation book and do lots of problems. If you get all the math questions right, your chances of getting the passing score increases.
Another tip i have is on the management questions. Management questions would include, delegation, prioritization and professional issues. You can get materials that will help you figure out these questions from the first chapter of your HESI book or any review book, like the saunders or prentice hall book. The saunders book has a good chapter on delegation. It tells you what the unlicensed assistive personnel can do, what the licensed practical nurse can do and what the registered nurse absolutely has to do. Prioritization questions are based on the severity of a clients condition, time frame and client requirements like teaching or discharge instructions amongst other things. These questions are not many so they probably have a lot of points. Now if you get a lot of these right, you accumulate points that could help you pass.
Also be aware of questions on culture. Read your fundamentals of nursing text book and be familiar with certain practices of some cultures and what the nurse should do when in contact with such cultural practices. Professional issues includes things like hippa, medication orders , legal issues and dealing with your colleagues . All of these are good to know.
Finally, you need to know all the other stuff, medical surgical nursing, psych,community health nursing and everything else that will be on the exam. I hope that if you are able to read the HESI book, you will be fine with the above subjects and if you have an idea of all the other things like the math and delegation that you will do well on the HESI. Its not such a bad exam if you are prepared and know what the question is asking so take a deep breath, relax and if you have prepared as best as you can , you should be fine. Hope this article helps and i wish you good luck.

The City Colleges of Chicago Kennedy-King to be specific is using the HESI in a way it was not designed for.
On August 23, 2010 at 5:25 pm
Wow! I can't believe schools are doing this. I agree .. this is so so wrong. I just recently graduated from a community college. Our Hesi score only counted as 10% of our grade. I did get a very high score .. over 1100 it equated to 95%. I did use the Hesi book and cd to briefly study. Honestly, I think what helped is that our school requires us to do 100 NCLEX 4000 questions every week with an average of 85% or better. By the time you graduate you have answered close to 10,000 NCLEX questions. I take boards on Aug. 25th. Two of my classmates that I know who took boards passed with 75 questions. The NCLEX 4000 cd is a really good cd which enables you to select questions by category and take as little as 10 at a time or all 4000 at one time. You can do it in test mode or study mode. I know its hard to squeeze in one more study tool if you don't have to, but this cd will help, both with Hesi and boards.

Brunello Tours from Siena
Hello! I am trying to plan a tour on my honeymoon in June for wine tasting/tour from Siena for Montalcino/Brunello Wine. I have noticed there is a huge range of prices (from 80 US dollars to about 400) and many that do not list prices. Does anyone have any recommendations / is a $400 tour really better than an $80? I have noticed that some have a little more on their tours than others - we do not need a private tour, but would like to keep to a very small group (Im not usually a tour group person) Thank you for your feedback!

Yes, and I still do, have a real friend. I have't seen him in about 3 years. We phone about every six months. We live a hundred miles apart now. Either of us would come running, if the other called for help. I have had his children call for help, when he was not quickly available, and I have never refused them.

WHIZ is highlighting another artist who was showcasing her skills at the Zanesville Museum of Art this weekend.
Meet Hannah Rosner, she specializes in torch work and designs all kinds of jewelry and glass work. Rosner said while taking an art class in college, she realized she'd rather make her own glass beads than use premade ones.
"I don't think I cared at the beginning whether I was any good at it because it was just too much fun and it was more about-- some people find going on a roller coaster fun, for me, playing with glass is fun."
Rosner said it truly is addicting trying to see how far you can push it without breaking something or hurting yourself without running out of cash. While the hobby isn't cheap, she does encourage others to experiment with it.
"Don't give up because you do get a plateau that you think well I'm never going to get better and then suddenly something happens," she said. "If you enjoy it, continue it don't let yourself get depressed that you're in a rut because sooner or later you're going to get something that's going to work for you and it's going to push you farther."
Saturday was the first of four Art Watch events hosted by the museum and sponsored by the PNC Arts Alive Program.
