Linguistik-Klassifikation: Sprachtheorie / Theory of language
- Performance/competence (1) (remove)
- Language and mediality : on the medial status of 'everyday language' (2006)
- The medium of (oral) language is mostly disregarded (or overlooked) in contemporary media theories. This 'ignoring of language' in media studies is often accompanied by an inadequate transport model of communication, and it converges with an 'ignoring of mediality' in mentalistic theories of language. In the present article it will be argued that this misleading opposition of language and media can only be overcome if one already regards oral language, not just written language, as a medium of the human mind. In my argumentation I fall back on Wittgenstein's conception of language games to try to show how Wittgenstein's ideas can help us to clear up the problem of the mediality of language and also to show to what extent the mentalistic conception of Chomskyan provenance cannot be adequate to the phenomenon of language. Keywords: Mediality; Medium; Wittgenstein; Everyday language; Mentalism; Performance/competence

Well, it makes me think of Benjamin getting 5 times the amount at Joseph"s table. He was testing them to see if their jealous nature still remained.
Hey another basic (hopefully not too stupid sounding again) question, but I have always heard too that 5 is the number of grace but why exactly is that?
O.K. Taffy, I see you are not going to budge on this matter that I requested Brian's post be deleted. Why would I ask to have mine deleted when mine was the truth?And that begs the question Taffy,You being a moderator, and you having read what I posted (seeing as how you already told me what it was about), why didn't you delete it? Obviously it wasn't as bad as it was made to be.And this still evades the issue, Taffy. It puts the focus back on me where it really is about me being alowed to post on these boards without fear of being character assassinated.Now can we finally get this behind us and get on with life?

I think Anderson's entire showing against Forrest has got to be another favourite. Some serious virtuoso stuff that night.
Coleman/Petey is another one that is iconically jarring, as Coleman gets his face corked unbelievably stiff, but it is also a very ugly fight during a down time in the UFC. Evans' headkick to Salmon also is a pretty hardcore KO.
There's also something incredibly awesome about Rizzo's combo that KO'd Arlovski, again another beautiful segment.
Lastly, James Irvin's flying knee to Terry Martin is a great KO too.

11 Halloween Desserts Hiding Fun Surprises Inside
Believe it or not, these silhouettes were created with rubber stamps ($25 for two, Rubber Stamps; 212-675-1180). Using a cookie cutter or a glass, cut fondant into circles and leave out overnight to stiffen. Paint a clean rubber stamp with black food coloring and press image onto the circles. If needed, fill in bare spots with a small paintbrush dipped in food coloring. Just before serving, place the circles on top of cupcakes with buttercream frosting.
Note: Fondant is available, in various colors, at craft stores likes Michaels and Jo-Ann. For these cupcakes, microwave it for 8 to 10 seconds, then roll out to 1/4-inch thickness.
Super-easy white-chocolate toppers appear to float, Houdini-like, over chocolate cupcakes.

Former Wolves defenseman Braydon Coburn is now a member of the Philadelphia Flyers, currently battling the Chicago Blackhawks in the 2010 Stanley Cup Finals. Coburn, who played in 91 regular-season games for the Wolves, spanning three seasons (2004-2007), has been a mainstay on the Flyers' blueline since 2007.
Coburn was selected by the Atlanta Thrashers in the first round, eighth overall, in the 2003 National Hockey League Entry Draft and assigned to Chicago at the conclusion of his Western Hockey League season with the Portland Winter Hawks in 2005. He played in three regular-season games for the Wolves before appearing in 18 postseason matchups, helping the team advance to the 2005 Calder Cup Finals, where they were defeated by a Philadelphia Phantoms squad that featured a number of his current teammates.
Overall, Coburn registered 38 points (7G, 31A) and 177 penalty minutes in 91 regular-season games for the Wolves.
The now 25-year-old defenseman made his NHL debut with the Thrashers on Oct. 5, 2005, at Florida, and recorded his first NHL point with an assist against Washington on Oct. 8. He went on to appear in 38 games with the Thrashers from 2005 to 2007, tallying five assists and 34 penalty minutes.
On February 24, 2007, Coburn was traded to the Flyers in exchange for defenseman Alexei Zhitnik. From then on, the 6-foot-5-inch, 220 lbs. defenseman has remained on the Philadelphia blueline, playing in 259 regular-season games, accruing 90 points (24G, 66A) and 241 penalty minutes. Entering the Finals, Coburn had also appeared in 37 Stanley Cup playoff tilts, notching 12 points (G, 11A) and 39 penalty minutes.
His time with the Flyers has been highlighted by a trip to the Eastern Conference Finals in 2008, playing in the 2010 Winter Classic at Fenway Park, and advancing to the current 2010 Stanley Cup Finals. To follow along with the Wolves alum, click here.

FEE's college seminars are for students age 18-24 who are new to economics and the freedom philosophy and are interested in learning more about the world around them.
People Aren't Pawns: Understanding the Economics of Human Behavior
St. Edward's University | Austin, TX | June 4 – 7
The Austrian School of Economics offers a unique analytical framework by focusing on the actions and choices of individual actors. Understanding this framework will help you better understand major events like the 2008 Housing Crisis, the Great Depression, and the fall of the Soviet Union. It will also help you analyse your own choices and help you make better decisions. Most importantly, it demonstrates the limits of our abilities to control other people's actions and allows us to find solutions to complex problems without using other as pawns in our schemes.
Are Markets Just? Exploring the Social Significance of a Free Economy
St. Edward's University | Austin, TX | June 8 - 11
Free markets are often portrayed as cold-hearted systems that exploit the masses for the greedy gain of a few. But what if this portrayal is wrong? What if markets create the necessary framework for community, diversity, and creativity that is necessary to find solutions to society's problems?
If you are concerned about the suffering of the poor. If you are concerned about the treatment of women, minorities, and other disenfranchised groups. If you are frustrated with the lack of solutions and progress in the political process. Then maybe it is time to look at the problems in a new way. This seminar will enable you to develop tools to help you tackle the problems you are passionate about solving.
Making Innovation Possible: The Role of Economics in Scientific Progress
Chapman University | Orange, CA | June 22-25
Why should scientists care about economics? Economics is about much more than just efficiently making and selling products. Economic thinking is, like the scientific method, a powerful tool for understanding the world around us. Beyond that, the market is a tool that creates and communicates vast amounts of knowledge throughout the world. Understanding these market processes not only allow us to expand our knowledge of the world, but also helps us promote the causes of science and technology.
Problem Solving 101: How Economic Thinking Can Create a Better World
Colorado School of Mines | Golden, CO | July 13 - 16
Economic thinking is a powerful tool that can help you solve problems both in personal interactions and in society as a whole. This seminar helps you create a foundation of economic thinking that you will use to analyze problems, evaluate solutions, and make better decisions. We won't tell you the answer to all of the world's problems, but we will give you the tools to find the answers yourself.
The Economics of Business Success: How to be a Better Manager and Citizen
Colorado School of Mines | Golden, CO | July 17 - 20
Can economic thinking make you a better manager? A better person? Economics is about more than making and selling products efficiently. Having a foundation in economic thinking allows you to understand individual behaviors and motivations giving you the ability to adapt to meet the needs of your customers, partners, and employees. Being great managers also comes from being great people. Being character-driven leaders means you create value for yourself by creating value for others.
Life is Improv: How Art, Culture, and the Free Market make the World Beautiful
Agnes Scott College | Decatur, GA | July 22-25
What can economic thinking tell you about art and culture? What can art and culture tell you about economic thinking? Art, culture, and the free market are interconnected in powerful and beautiful ways. Viewing art through an economic lens can show the beauty and order that emerge from seeming chaos. Viewing economics through an artistic lens can show how art has shaped culture, fought tyranny, and held society together.
Good Intentions or Good Results? How Trade, Property, and Entrepreneurship will Help the Developing World
Calvin College | Grand Rapids, MI | July 31 - August 3
What causes wealth and what can be done to help those without it? Billions of dollars are spent on aid programs, while millions continue to starve. These programs help people feel better about the suffering in the world, but what actually helps alleviate that suffering? What is the cause of wealth in the world? This introduction to economic thinking will help you answer these questions. This introductory seminar will not give you all of the answers to these complex problems; it will give you the tools to find the answers yourself.

Instagram, Snapchat, and the difference between $1 billion Facebook bucks vs simply being cloned
Facebook's new, Snapchat-like timed messaging (widely held to be sexting) app, Poke was coded in only 12 days, and part of that code was reportedly written by Facebook's founder and CEO, Mark Zuckerberg himself. Why is Facekbook telling and/or leaking that backstory? Josh Constine of TechCrunch writes:
We heard Facebook made attempts to buy [Snapchat], but the team wanted to stay independent. That's when Facebook and Zuckerberg went into hacker mode. With just a few weeks until Apple stopped accepting submissions of new apps before Christmas, it would take a sprint to get Poke built in time.
So a small squad including Facebook Director Of Product Blake Ross kicked development into high gear, Zuckerberg lent a hand with the programming, designers Mike Matas and Sharon Hwang created the icon, and Facebook just made the deadline and launched the Poke app this morning.
People often think they have an idea for the "next big app" and ask how to get it made without getting "ripped off". It's a cliche that ideas are a dime a dozen and implementation and execution are where the value resides. But that's never been true either. Whether it was Microsoft in the early days of the PC, or Zynga or Facebook now, anything bootstrapped that gets significant attention and momentum is destined to be bought or simply cloned.
As MG Siegler points out on parislemon:
I also can't help but wonder if maybe this is a message from Facebook: don't want to come work with us? Fine, we'll clone your service in a couple weeks and ship it to a billion users.
The difference between being a $1 billion Instagram deal and Snapchat clone is likely how important your user base is and how hard they think it will be to co-opt it. Facebook Camera with filters wouldn't have done anything to stop or even slow Instagram in the vitally important, incredibly attractive area of online photo sharing (i.e storing). Poke will either do enough, or the capricious offshoot of the IM space isn't important enough, for Facebook to spend more money, or more than 12 weeks on it.
Oh, and that voice you hear say "POKE!" when a new one arrives? That's supposedly Zuckerberg's own as well.
How badly Poke hurts Snapchat remains to be seen, as does Poke's long-term importance to Facebook itself. Is it a fad-app whose lifespan mirrors its short development time, or is it core functionality that's here for the long haul? I guess we'll see if/when Poke secures a place on the Home screen next to Instagram when the Facebook phone finally launches...

Instagram, Snapchat, and the difference between $1 billion Facebook bucks vs simply being cloned
The app isn't about "poking" in the original Facebook sense. It is to send pictures or messages with a timed delete. For example, you're a studyly man who wants to sext me a dicture, well, you send it via Poke and you can set it to delete and not be view-able after say, 5 seconds.
I love how every time I read iMore's coverage of Poke and its "sexting" capability I get Googe Adsense ads for 'Is He Cheating On You?"
One interesting side-effect of being cloned is the publicity you get. I hadn't heard of Snapchat until today, for example.
You may have a great idea, but one no one can see what it is until they try it (I have one app like that I designed, for example). If nothing, being able to say "it's like poke, but better because) may actually be useful for Snapchat (assuming they have some USPs, of course.) Once the cloning company gets as large as Facebook or Zynga, simply "not being them" may be enough.
I think Facebook's biggest oversight is the fact that people have associated the word "poke" with the action on Facebook for so long--and that this app does something other than what we think "poke" means. Without articles like this explaining what Poke is, most would assume it's an app made to easily poke, without having to open the Facebook app, kind of like what they did with messaging.
They could have thought of a better title for the app. To many, poke will be an app they scroll right by because they will assume it is a "poking" app.
They could have named it InstaPoke...Instagram always seems to put something out for just a few seconds.

WASHINGTON — Excuse me while I roll my eyes over the latest "mommy war."
It's not that I don't care about the substance, but because I've lived long enough to know how it turns out. Some wars can't be won because to the victor go spoils no one really wants. And the children always lose.
The most recent skirmish is taking place at the great and once-powerful Yahoo under the leadership of new CEO Marissa Mayer, the fifth in five years. The preceding sentence should be read as: "OMG, do whatever you have to do to fix this!"
Thus, Mayer issued orders that telecommuting employees start showing up at the office. You'd have thought she had called for the sacrifice of everyone's first-born.
What kind of woman does such a thing?
Doesn't she know that balancing work and family was a joke until technology made it possible to work from home?
If she knew it, she didn't care. And therein lies the rub. Mayer not only irked her employees; she did the unthinkable. She boinked the sisterhood.
Mayer was already familiar with the fallout that comes from acting as an individual rather than as a member of the collective.
When she appeared on the cover of Fortune magazine last fall as one of the 50 most powerful women – looking a little too svelte for someone who had just had a baby – the blogosphere lit up.
Apparently, Mayer's critics wanted her to have been photographed while pregnant, conveying the message that pregnant women are also strong and powerful.
Everything is about messaging these days, except when one doesn't like the content of the message, such as: Hire a baby sitter and get to work. Business is business, after all, and nothing is less sensitive than the bottom line.
I am not as tough as I sound. No one is more sympathetic to working mothers than I. (And, no, sorry, most fathers are not tending the young the way mothers do, and this is because they are not mothers. If you're having trouble with this, put on your Clearasil and go to bed.)
My sympathy stems from having decided long ago to work from home upon realizing that my child needed me more than my employer did.
But I am fortunate.
Mine is the sort of work that can be accomplished from home – and, most important, I have a husband. Highly recommended.
It is thus understandable why Yahoo workers are dismayed – and why others who hoped for such civilized options for others – are disappointed.
Adding to the insult is that Mayer has built a nursery for her own child – out of her own pocket – next to her office.
Such tidy solutions obviously are available to few and the fear is that all women now will be held to the impossible standard set by Mayer.
Let's be clear: Mayer is one rare bird. But should she be? Aren't we supposed to say "More power to her" right about now?
By what dictum must Mayer conduct her life – and her company – to please others? She crashed the glass ceiling and we're upset that she made a mess?
This is how mommy wars get started and why they'll never end.
There's no winning because, except for the best educated and wealthiest, it isn't possible to reach the top of the corporate ladder and also take care of babies.
In a saner world, we wouldn't try.
Meanwhile, Mayer is doing what is right for her and what she thinks will improve her company's performance. She clearly believes that making her talented workers convene in the same physical space is crucial to improving performance.
She is probably not wrong to imagine that pooling talent will engender greater creativity, synergy and all those other happy buzzwords of successful enterprises if people talk to each other in person.
The Internet may be a universe of free-ranging thought, but there's nothing like the chemical combustion of human contact that leads to the birthing of ideas.
Here's one: Why not build a state-of-the-art day care center at Yahoo for all those employees who, though their minds may be present, will have left their hearts at home?
Mayer, who obviously sees the benefit to her own child, could send a long-overdue message to corporate America: Having children nearby makes workers less stressed and more productive.
Call it "The Bassinet-Bottom Line Initiative."
If innovation plus compassion leads to profit, who knows?
We may finally declare a truce after all.

If you have any questions about the Dicke College of Business Administration, contact email@example.com
Ohio Northern University is offering an exciting new major in risk management and insurance. Enter a dynamic field, work for yourself, earn a competitive salary and find direct pathways to an extensive career. ONU is the ONLY AACSB-accredited private institution to offer this degree option in the region.
A career in risk management and insurance
No matter the industry, business involves some amount of risk. The role of the risk management professional is to help organizations understand, evaluate, prioritize and take action on all of their risks with a view toward increasing the probability of success and reducing the likelihood of failure.
Risks can involve uncertainty in financial markets, threats from project failures (at any phase in design, development, production or sustainment life-cycles), legal liabilities, credit risk, accidents, natural causes and disasters, specific and deliberate attacks from an adversary, or uncertain events.
Risk management is key to ensuring key stakeholders (customers, shareholders, employees, investors, suppliers, etc.) that a business is being managed effectively and helps the organization confirm its compliance with corporate governance requirements.
The outlook after graduation
With a bachelor's degree in risk management and insurance, students are prepared for a variety of entry-level positions in the area of risk management. Industry trends in the insurance area in particular indicate that a growing number of retirements will create a need for qualified individuals with the educational background for managing risk.
Job potential
Nationally, there will be an estimated 5 million jobs available between 2008-18. Ohio Northern University's risk management and insurance major will help you get in on this emerging need and provide the path to a long, successful career. The starting salary for graduates is $40,000 and up. Current job titles include:
- Actuarial risk manager
- Credit risk manager
- Enterprise risk manager
- Health care risk manager
- Loss control manager
ONU is the right choice
Ohio Northern is the only AACSB-accredited private institution in the region to offer this degree option. Bloomberg Businessweek has ranked the Dicke College of Business Administration first in Ohio and 14th overall in the nation for academic quality. Ohio Northern also earned high marks in the nine categories used for the rankings, including an "A" in the "Teaching Quality" category.
The risk management curriculum
The Dicke College of Business Administration's risk management and insurance major prepares the next generation of business leaders to help organizations mitigate risk and maximize profits. The major provides students with a solid foundation in understanding the concept of risk, the process of risk management and the field of insurance, including fundamental doctrines, historical background, social value, economic influence, loss exposures and protection, insurance regulation, insurance carriers, reinsurance, marketing, underwriting, and claims adjusting.

COLUMBIA - Gov. Nikki Haley said it's wrong for the federal government to expect states to accept unattended children who are illegally crossing the U.S.-Mexico border while providing no information on them.
"We do care about these children. We do want them to be safe. But we also have our own children to take care of," she said Thursday evening during a panel discussion of Republican governors at the Aspen Institute in Colorado.
"We've got our foster children in every one of our states and we are trying to balance a budget," she said. "And because they won't do the one basic thing of securing our border, we are now taking on additional children. It's just wrong. It's wrong. And when we ask who these children are or where they are, Secretary Johnson said we can't tell you because of privacy issues."
But a South Carolina advocate for the poor said it's never wrong to protect children who are fleeing danger.
Haley, whose parents emigrated from India, said America is great because of legal immigrants like them.
"Secure our border and restore the rule of law, and in so doing, prevent untold thousands of additional children from enduring what is undoubtedly a horrifying ordeal," she wrote in a July 17 letter to U.S. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson.
Last week, Haley said Johnson assured her there are no shelters for the children in South Carolina, on military bases or otherwise. Her spokesman said Friday she intends to keep it that way.
Federal data released Thursday showed 350 children were released to a family member or other sponsor in South Carolina from Jan. 1 through July 7, accounting for 1 percent of the 30,340 children who were released nationwide to someone whose information was found on them.
"Now that we know there are some children being placed with sponsors in South Carolina, we will work with Homeland Security, understand our options, and make sure that we are doing everything we can to protect our state," said Haley spokesman Doug Mayer.
The U.S. has been grappling with more than 57,000 children who have entered the U.S. illegally since Oct. 1, mostly from three Central American countries: Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras. The children are fleeing violence in their home countries and crossing into the U.S. because they believe they will be allowed to stay. Children are placed in government shelters and then released to sponsors while they go through deportation proceedings. Federal officials told governors that sponsors are not asked if they are in the country legally.
"The kids have a phone number in their pocket or there's something stitched on the back of their pants," Haley said at the Aspen Institute. "But this undocumented child is going with this undocumented person in my state - that you tell me you can't find. This is a problem."
Haley said she argued with Johnson that the placements cost the state nothing.
Sue Berkowitz, director of the Appleseed Legal Justice Center, said it shouldn't be a monetary decision.
"These kids are in danger. These are kids who are fleeing terrible conditions of violence in their country," she said. "It's heartbreaking. We all have to care. It's not all about dollars and cents."

"Turner was a high-level player and is a high-level person," Wade said. "His experience on the court as a student-athlete, and his proven ability to coach and recruit makes him the perfect addition to our staff. I could not be happier that he agreed to be a part of bringing 'Chaos' to Chattanooga."
Battle played for and coached under Reggie Witherspoon at Buffalo. He was the MAC Player of the Year in 2005 leading the Bulls to a 23-win season averaging 15.5 points, 4.6 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game. He went on to a pro career in Europe before joining Witherspoon's staff in 2007.
The Kernersville, N.C., native played in Estonia, France and the NBADL before heading to the sidelines. He spent six years at his alma mater with his main duties lying in developing the Bulls' backcourt and recruiting. His pupils included John Boyer who led the nation in assist-to-turnover ratio in 2010, All-MAC performer Byron Mulkey and single-season assist record holder Jarod Oldham.
Inducted in the UB Hall of Fame in 2010, Battle was not just a player. He epitomized the term student-athlete excelling on the court and in the classroom tallying 1,414 points, 458 assists and 170 steals, while also earning 2005 ESPN the Magazine Academic All-American honors. He was a three-time All-MAC Academic performer as well.
Battle earned his degree in Communications in 2005. He is married to the former Clare Crowley and joins Wes Long and Casey Long (no relation) on staff.

LA Clippers Schedule
Tuesday, TBD
Clippers Ticket Info
It's hard to believe but the Clippers will be competing to be the most exciting team in Los Angeles for the third year in a row, and fans will be clamoring for Clippers tickets as the Los Angeles Clippers roster continues to improve with each season. Blake Griffin and Chris Paul will be bringing lob city back in full effect with stronger support from a deeper and more dynamic team. As the Clips continue to improve, so will their chances to advance further in the NBA Playoffs.
Last season the Clippers finished at 56-26, winning the Pacific Division and finishing 3rd overall in the Western Conference. The Clips were matched up with the Memphis Grizzlies in the 1st round of the NBA Playoffs and were not able to get by Zach Randolph and company, falling in six games. Head coach Vinny Del Negro subsequently lost his job after four season in Los Angeles. With an incredibly talented, young roster, the Clippers should be in position to contend for many years to come. The excitement of players like Blake Griffin and Jamal Crawford has attracted fans to the STAPLES Center in record numbers. Check out Lob City when you order LA Clippers tickets from GoTickets today!
The Clippers will prove to be a viable threat to the Lakers and to the Spurs as the playoffs approach in '14, and Los Angeles Clippers tickets are becoming a hot commodity in the city. This team is now among the most dangerous teams in the Western Conference, and they might be the most explosive team that plays in the STAPLES Center. It's always exciting to find new celebrities flocking to the Clipper games because of the improving squad. In the next few years, the Clippers will be the main-attraction in the Staples Center, so now is the time to buy Los Angeles Clippers tickets.
GoTickets.com has you covered with tickets to every NBA game this year, as well as the 2015 NBA Finals, and NBA All Star Game.

Health & Pregnancy
For many women, the toughest part of early pregnancy is morning sickness. If you are suffering from nausea, vomiting, or both, you need safe measures that will bring you some relief. Your best course of action for managing morning sickness is home treatment. By following a few proven guidelines, you are likely to gain significant relief from nausea and vomiting. Home treatment measures for morning sickness include:
- Changing what, when, and how much you eat.
- Taking ginger, vitamin B6, or vitamin B12, which may reduce nausea and/or vomiting during pregnancy.
- Avoiding foods and smells that make you feel sick.
- Trying acupressure, which seems to work for some women.
- Taking doxylamine by itself or with vitamin B6. Talk to your doctor about this medicine.
If you have severe, persistent nausea and vomiting, see your doctor or nurse-midwife immediately. This uncommon complication of pregnancy can lead to dehydration and malnutrition, sometimes requiring prescribed medicine or hospitalization.

First Official Photography of Hour of the Dragon Series
Friday, December 03, 2004
Today, McFarlane Toys is proud to unveil its second line of classic warrior action figures, Conan 2: Hour of the Dragon. Inspired by the Hyborian legends as originally written by Conan's creator, Robert E. Howard, this second line of Conan action figures from McFarlane Toys represents several characters from the popular Hour of the Dragon novel.
King Conan of Aquilonia is in his mid-40s as Robert E. Howard's classic tale The Hour of the Dragon begins. Royal conspirators plot to overthrow Conan. To accomplish their plans they bring the evil sorcerer Xaltotun -- dead for 3,000 years -- back to life. Xaltotun pushes aside the conspirators and begins his own evil schemes, using sorcery on the battlefield to make it appear King Conan has been slain in combat. In truth, Xaltotun takes Conan captive and imprisons him deep in the dungeons of his rival, the King of Nemedia.
An unexpected ally, the beautiful Zenobia -- a slave in the Nemedian royal harem -- risks her life to help Conan escape the dank prison. Conan is moved by her bravery and vows to return and rescue her.
Conan begins a quest for revenge. His journey leads him through ghoul-haunted forests, the bench of a slave galley, the tomb of a vampire and finally back to Aquilonia. Conan finds his kingdom bloodied by a civil war between factions claiming the Aquilonian throne.
Conan secretly gathers his old troops and allies and, assisted by a ragtag band of peasant guerillas, they rise up to reconquer Aquilonia. Xaltotun is defeated and returned to the dead.
Conan defeats the King of Nemedia in combat and regains his Aquilonian throne. In ransom for the Nemedian King's life, Conan demands the harem girl Zenobia. Conan declares, "She was a slave in Nemedia, but I will make her queen of Aquilonia!"
Conan 2: Hour of the Dragon features the following five figures plus a deluxe boxed set:CONAN THE WARRIORMAN-EATING HAUNTER OF THE PITSXALTOTUN THE UNDEADPALLANTIDES OF THE BLACK DRAGONSZENOBIAKING CONAN OF AQUILONIA, deluxe boxed setEnjoy your first official photography of this series, which is set to hit retail shelves in March 2005.

Honolulu, Hawaii is one of the top vacation destinations on the planet. The capital and largest city in the state is home to beautiful golden sand beaches as well as a wide range of everything from top Hawaii hotels to more affordable accommodations. Hotels in Honolulu offer the chance to watch popular surf competitions and spectacular sunsets, enjoy dazzling ocean views and be just steps from the sand, or a chance to stay among the many exciting downtown attractions.
You'll find many four- and five-star hotels in Honolulu set on the magnificent sands of Waikiki, considered a 24-hour playground with everything from outstanding surf and sun to karaoke bars and trendy nightclubs. Honolulu hotels in the historic downtown area are ideal for those who want to explore the dynamic capital's cultural attractions as well as an array of shopping opportunities. For your business trip to Honolulu, you might choose one of the city's many business-oriented hotels located in the financial district. Those seeking a quieter location and tropical scenery just minutes away from the beaches and bustling downtown might choose Honolulu-area hotels in the Manoa-Makiki district.
Whether you're looking for cheap Honolulu hotels with simple, no-frills accommodations that provide a great bang for the buck or the ultimate in luxurious digs with world-class spas, tennis facilities, kids' programs, gorgeous pools, and more, you're sure to find something that fits the bill perfectly. Many feature on-site restaurants as well as frequent special events and activities like luaus, live music, and much more.
From family-friendly, lower-cost Honolulu hotels to idyllic resorts, no matter what your desires and requirements you're practically guaranteed of finding just the right place to meet your needs.
Hotels in Honolulu
Welcome to "The Big Pineapple!" Say "Aloha!" to beautiful white sand beaches, ancient volcanic craters, and year-round balmy, tropical temperatures, all within a bustling metropolis that offers every conceivable modern convenience. Such is life in Honolulu, Hawaii's state capital. Located on the island of Oahu, Honolulu is home to an exotic blend of Eastern, Western, and Pacific cultures. In addition to being a major travel destination in its own right, it is the city through which most travelers enter Hawaii. Each year, millions of tourists and businesspeople fly into Honolulu International Airport, the principal Honolulu airport. Hotel buildings and a volcanic crater known as Diamond Head frame the popular Waikiki Beach, where you'll find many of these travelers spending their days sunbathing, surfing, or swimming in Honolulu's famously warm waters. If you're looking for a relaxing vacation in a thoroughly modern island paradise, look no further. With Travelocity, it's a breeze finding the best deals on Honolulu hotels. So what are you waiting for? Browse through cheap hotels in Honolulu today and book your accommodations for the vacation of a lifetime.
Attractions in Honolulu
A trip to Honolulu would be incomplete without a day spent at Waikiki Beach. This famous white sand beach is known for its consistently sunny skies, stunning views of Diamond Head, and perfect conditions for beginning surfers. If you don't know how to surf, why not learn? The neighborhood of Waikiki has many surfing schools that give lessons. Or maybe you'd prefer a relatively painless trek to Oahu's tallest accessible waterfall, the breathtaking Manoa Falls. The trail leading to the falls passes through various ecosystems filled with the island's unique rainforest plants and animals. Be sure to bring your camera! Manoa Falls offers amazing sights begging to be captured on film. It's no wonder director Steven Spielberg chose to feature the waterfall in his popular movie Jurassic Park. If you're looking to socialize, attend one of Honolulu's many luaus or perhaps an authentic hula show, like the Kuhio Beach Torchlighting and Hula Show. Held every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday evening, the free show begins with the torch lighting and ceremonial blowing of the conch shell. The performers proceed to tell the story of Waikiki's history through music and dance. It is a fantastic way to spend a relaxing evening outside on the beach.
What to do in Honolulu
The best spot for surfing depends somewhat on the time of year, but on an island the size of Oahu, you're never far from a beach with perfect conditions for catching some waves. Surfing is practically synonymous with Hawaii and it's a great way to have fun with friends and family or on your own while in Honolulu. If you've never set foot on a surfboard before, there's no time like the present! Honolulu has plenty of surfing schools that offer lessons for beginners. Go for a swim with the sharks! There are tour companies in Honolulu that will take you cage diving, so you can get up close and personal with these largely misunderstood animals. Educational and unforgettable, these shark tours are not to be missed. Perhaps you appreciate the beauty of the ocean, but you'd prefer to stay on dry land. For staggering views of the shoreline, hike the Diamond Head Summit Trail. Starting inside the volcanic crater, the steep trail climbs up the side to Diamond Head's highest point, where you'll be able to see old military bunkers on the crater rim and a phenomenal vista of the island and ocean below.
How about an afternoon of inspiring artwork at the Honolulu Museum of Art? Founded in 1922, the museum now houses a huge collection of works from well-known European and American artists like Picasso and Warhol, as well as Asian and native Hawaiian artists. Don't pass over this cultural gem, open 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday and 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday. If the idea of swimming with sharks didn't sit well with you, but you'd still like to commune with creatures of the deep, stop by the Waikiki Aquarium. The second oldest public aquarium in the United States, it now plays host to over 400 different species of sea animals and plants. It makes for a wonderful educational activity for children, but people of all ages can enjoy the variety of marine life on display. The hours of operation are 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. daily. For a moving trip through history, be sure to visit the USS Arizona Memorial. The memorial was built in 1962 and marks the spot where 1,177 were killed on the USS Arizona during the 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor. The hull of the ship lies exactly where it sunk and the memorial now sits directly above it, without touching it. Tickets to see the memorial are free, but you can reserve them for a future visit for a small fee.
When to visit Honolulu
Sunny skies and consistently warm temperatures year-round mean there's never a bad time to visit Honolulu. Hotels fill up more quickly in the summertime when families are going on summer vacations with their children, so be sure to book your accommodations early with Travelocity. The weather tends to be only slightly cooler and stormier during the winter months, and the city remains a popular destination during this time of year. Tourists visit in droves around Christmastime, perhaps escaping the snow back home. Beaches in Honolulu are emptiest when school is in session in the spring and the fall, so if you like to avoid crowds, these are the best times to visit. Regardless of when you decide to come, you'll be in love with this magnificent city from the moment your plane lands at the Honolulu airport. Hotel bargain hunting has never been easier, so pack your bags (don't forget your swimsuit!) and head to the nearest airport; Honolulu hotel deals and outstanding travel packages through Travelocity are your passport to bliss! Don't worry about a thing, because Travelocity can help you find and book the cheapest hotels in Honolulu. Hawaii, here you come!

Comments about 20V MAX Cordless Lithium-Ion 1/4 in. Impact Driver Kit:
The only problem I see with this tool is the case. It is too compact and you have to cram everything in it to get it to close and also the drill bit or the driver that you are using must be removed from the tool so that it will fit in its case. Other than that it is a nice tool to work with.

Comments about 20V MAX Cordless Lithium-Ion 1/4 in. Impact Driver Kit:
I was amazed that for a 20V unit how light and powerful it is. The only thing I wish it had was a clutch. Other than that this thing is great. Drives screws like their going through butter. Great product. Will quickly become my screwdriver of choice.

Comments about 20V MAX Cordless Lithium-Ion 1/4 in. Impact Driver Kit:
I own a manufacturing business specializing in Automotive and Industrial systems development, and while we use the 18v version of this same 1/4" impact, I am sure this version is as good or better than the one we use.
This is, by far, the most versatile and used tool in our shop. With the 1/4" drive system, we are able to adapt out to utilize 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" socket drives as well as every screw drive tool that we have on hand. Drilling? Snag a set of 1/4" hex drive drill bits and you're good to go. Step drills also plug right into these.
Power-wise, it's not going to break lug nuts off a wheel, but it's more than adequate for every other medium to small bolt application that we find on the cars that come through our shop. Additionally, it has an immense amount of finesse in the variable trigger, allowing us to use it for things like plastic body fasteners without stripping them out or damaging the drives.
We also use these in our manufacturing processes for loading and unloading components into fixtures. And when the time comes that we need to hang something on the wall, we just swap in a phillips drive and blast fasteners through anything we so choose. Installing huge lugs into pressure treated beams? You'd think they were made of butter. Assembling giant shipping pallets - it outran our plug in hammer drill running a phillips drive.
I can't speak highly enough of this impact driver - it is the best tool in our shop. If I could afford five of them, I would buy them all today (the reason I was on here was to price out and purchase an additional setup).
Buy this part, you won't regret it. In fact, you'll probably end up spending your free time trying to determine how you operated before you owned this tool.

MBA or MM?
Making the decision to pursue a Master of Business Administration or a Master of Management degree is a personal choice and different for each student. Choosing one or the other must be based upon several criteria, including amount of time and number of courses a student wishes to dedicate to their education, financial budgeting and long-term career focus.
Students who want to complete their degree on an accelerated path may prefer to pursue a Master of Management, allowing them to refocus on their career more quickly and minimize financial output. Students interested in expanding their understanding of operations and financial management may choose to pursue an MBA instead.
Depending on if you choose an MBA or an MM - and if you attend full-time (two classes per eight-week session) or part-time (one class per eight-week session) - obtaining your master's degree can take from 40 to 96 weeks to complete.

Conflict Zone: Photojournalism from the Wars in Iraq and Afghanistan
January 26 - March 6, 2015 University Museum, Dimond Library, Level 1
The University Museum, with funding from the UNH English Department, will host an exhibit and related programs entitled Conflict Zone: Photojournalism from the Wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, a collection of images from the front lines and the post-war home front, captured by combat photographers and journalists, both military and civilian.
Conflict Zone was established in 2010 to honor Joao Silva, a New York Times photojournalist who lost both legs to a landmine in Afghanistan. Chris Hondros, Joao's colleague and a Conflict Zone featured photographer, was killed in Libya in 2011. Conflict Zone is now dedicated to him.
A formal opening is scheduled for Thursday, Feb. 5th at 5:00 PM, and will include an artist's walkthrough by Nathan Webster, a Lecturer of English at UNH whose photography is part of the exhibition. Webster reported from Iraq as a freelance photojournalist from 2007-09. In addition to his Conflict Zone work, other examples of his photography will be displayed.
The exhibit will also include a reading and discussion with Elliot Ackerman, author of the upcoming novel Green on Blue. Ackerman has written for The New Yorker and Daily Beast and is a Marine veteran of Iraq and Afghanistan. Ackerman's reading will take place Thursday, Feb. 26th at 5:00 PM at the UNH Memorial Union Building, Theater II.
Learn more at ConflictZone.org and ElliotAckerman.com.

As the Milne Special Collections and Archives unit reorganizes and seeks to hire new staff, there will be some changes to our reference desk hours.
Starting Tuesday, January 20th, reading room hours for the spring semester will be:
- Monday: 12-4pm
- Tuesday: 12-8pm
- Wednesday: 12-4pm
- Thursday: 12-4pm
- Friday: 12-4pm
Milne Special Collections and Archives will continue to open by appointment for those who are unable to make regular reading room hours.
Like most Special Collections and Archives, we are closed on the weekends.
These changes are in response to reduced staff, a growing backlog, an increase in remote reference, and a shift in photo/scanning requests stemming the closure of Photo Services last spring. In addition, our statistics show that two-thirds of our face-to-face research occurs after noon.
As a group, we strive to provide the best possible public service, in person and remote, as possible. We are hoping that with your help and understanding we can make this solution work as well as possible until we are fully staffed.
If you have questions, or wish to make an appointment, please contact Contact Special Collections, Archives, and Museum staff.
