TDWP Vocalist Releases Book
"about th stories"
Digging: Funeral Advantage - Body is Dead
"The book discusses the topics of the lyrical content in the album and
serves as a tool to further inform fans about th stories, inspirations
and the process behind the band's accomplishments."
GOD...and the book is done.
So true though.
glad this is an important news item
dead throne was sweet. dont care about this though
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
definitely buying copies for the whole family
Sounds like a good read
jk sounds like shit
Digging: Cryptopsy - Whisper Supremacy
Sounds like the pages of this this will make great toilet paper.
Digging: After Dinner - Paradise of Replica
Lol a trailer for the book
lol andcas and sixdegrees.
'definitely buying copies for the whole family'
Digging: The Cinema - Talking In Your Sleep
All benefits from the book will be going toward Mike's future dental work.
All benefits from the book will be going toward Mike's future dental work.
I knew it was coming.
Cool I love th stories.
If he tells the story of how a shitty band managed to put out such a good EP about zombies, count me in.
Shouldn't the book have come out around the same time as the album? And I don't think his lyrics are deep enough to warrant a book about them
Who is this for? Most of The Devil Wears Prada's fanbase are too young to read anyway.
"If he tells the story of how a shitty band managed to put out such a good EP about zombies, count me in."
"Mike Hrancia (vocalist for The Devil Wears Prada) has released a new book entitled One & A Half Hearts that he started around the time their last album DEAD THRONE was released. The book discusses the topics of the lyrical content IN THE ALBUM and serves as a tool to further inform fans about th stories, inspirations and the process behind the band's accomplishments.
^ Like I said...
It's gonna be some religious slop
Actually dead throne wasnt really god driven. It was more emotional, he wrote a lot of dead throne after his main bitch dropped his ass. This book is probably filled with more man pain than god.
is it the bible??
"GOD...and the book is done"
Ancas + 20.
I did an interview with Mike in 2011. Every question I asked, from his musical inspirations to defining moments as a member of TDWP, was answered with "WELL GOD X and GOD Y." I just wanted to know what bands he listened to growing up, and apparently God played in the only band he's ever listened to.
Dude was a douche.
He wasn't a douche when I met him.
sweet. im pretty tempted to check this out
It looks pretty cool
lol snox
If someone calls the book 'generic', I will smack them.
i like TDWP, but definitely not for their lyrical content. no thanks.
^ haha yesss
You could fit a bus through that teeth gap.
Useless book.
Lol how does a trailer for a book even work
He has jesus tattooed on his hand.
what the fuck did you expect skoj?
It was a phone interview. Shit, I dunno, I've met, talked with, or interviewed various members of switchfoot, underoath, the chariot, Norma jean, mewithoutyou... Fuck, even I the breather was easier to elicit answers from. All good dudes in the aforementioned acts and were happy to talk music except Hrancia. Fuck him.
Oh for the love of God
"Oh for the love of God"
yes exactly
"Most of The Devil Wears Prada's fanbase are too young to read anyway."
Didn't his original fanbase grew up and became hipsters already?
Expect this to be on the tables of every Starbucks next to a frappuccino
I most certainly want to read this.
Dead Throne actually has some rather deep lyrics. In the same vein as Vheissu, it dives into the metaphysical issues of religion/the absurdity of life without God.
I believe he went for a more... personal/subjective approach on this one. Anyway, i like Mike very much. He seems like a level headed dude. The whole band actually.
And im not christian or anything. But i do support that bands like TDWP and For Today and such go out and speak up for what they believe. As long as people are tolerant on those issues, its alright for anyone to believe in whatever. My pov.
@ Paxman: I thought exactly the same thing haha
Wow. Not the biggest fan of TDWP, but this sounds awesome.

PartnerRe Ltd.
's (
) second-quarter 2013 operating earnings per share of 90 cents
inched past the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 88 cents. However,
results stood significantly lower than the year-ago number of
$2.20 a share.
Higher investment losses led to lower top line, while higher
expenses led to underwriting loss, overall deteriorating the
bottom line. Subsequently, operating net income plunged 64% year
over year to $51.1 million.
Operating earnings were calculated after payment of preferred
dividends. This also excluded after-tax net realized and
unrealized investment loss of $4.07 per share, net foreign
exchange loss of 10 cents and loss on redemption of preferred
shares of 10 cents.
Including these items, GAAP net loss for PartnerRe stood at
$187.5 million or $3.37 per share against net income of $158
million or $2.50 per share in the year-ago quarter.
PartnerRe's total revenue plummeted 19.2% to $1.04 billion
from $1.29 billion in the year-ago quarter. It sizeably missed
the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.33 billion as well.
This included net premiums earned of $1.21 billion (up 7.9%
year over year), net investment income of $124.5 million (down
18.9 % year over year), pre-tax net realized and unrealized
investment loss of $299.2 million against gain of $38.1 million
in the year-ago quarter and other income of $3.9 million, up from
$2.7 million in the year-ago period. Meanwhile, net premiums
written increased 15.3% year over year to $1.31 billion.
During the reported quarter, total expense surged 21.5% year
over year to $1.28 billion. Higher expenses also led to
underwriting loss of $41 million versus income of $49 million in
the year-ago quarter.
Non-life combined ratio also deteriorated to 97.8% from 90.6%
in the year-ago period, attributable to higher expenses, policy
benefits and acquisition costs. This also reflected 11.7 points
or $112 million related to catastrophe losses from floods in
Europe and Canada, offset by 13.0 points or $127 million related
to net favourable development on prior accident years across all
non-life segments.
Further, technical ratio depreciated across most non-life
segments. The technical result for the reported quarter was
positive $100 million, declining 34.2% from the year-ago
Financial Update
As of Jun 30, 2013, PartnerRe's total assets were $22.57
billion, down from $22.98 billion at 2012-end. Total investments,
cash and directly managed funds stood at $17.1 billion, down 5%
from $18 billion at 2012-end. As of Jun 30, 2013, total capital
was $7.2 billion (down 7% from 2012-end) and total shareholder
equity was $6.42 billion, down from $6.93 billion at
However, PartnerRe's net non-life loss and loss expense
reserves dipped 3% from 2012-end to $10.1 billion, primarily due
to loss payments and strong dollar exchange rate. The company's
book value per common share reduced 1.2% to $99.65, compared with
$100.84 at the end of 2012.
Annualized operating ROE plunged to 3.6% in the reported
quarter from 13.5% at the end of the prior quarter, while
annualized net loss ROE stood at 13.4%, significantly lower than
net income ROE of 14% in the prior quarter.
Share Repurchase Update
On Mar 6, 2013, the board approved and brought into effect a
stock repurchase authorization of up to 6.0 million shares. This
replaced the previous authorization of 6.0 million shares that
was approved in Aug 2012.
Accordingly, the company bought back about 3.7 million shares
for $332 million during the reported quarter. An additional 0.325
million shares worth $29 million have been bought back so far in
the third quarter of 2013, leaving about 1.1 million shares
available for repurchases under the current authorization.

Country of Origin as a Stereotype: Effects of Consumer Expertise and Attribute Strength on Product Evaluations
This research identifies consumer expertise and the type of attribute information as moderating the effects of country of origin on product evaluations. When attribute information was unambiguous, experts based their evaluations on attribute strength, whereas novices relied on country of origin. When attribute information was ambiguous, both experts and novices used country of origin in evaluations. Also, experts and novices used county of origin differently in evaluations. Experts used country of origin to selectively process and recall attribute information, whereas novices used it to differentially interpret subsequent attribute information. The findings are discussed within the framework of stereotyping. Copyright 1994 by the University of Chicago.

In addition to the difference between MS patients and healthy controls, the researchers found that the multiple sclerosis patients diagnosed with depression showed a smaller CA23DG sub-region of the hippocampus, along with excessive release of cortisol from the HPA axis.
"Interestingly, this idea of a link between excessive activity of the HPA axis and reduced brain volume in the hippocampus hasn't received a lot of attention, despite the fact that the most consistently reproduced findings in psychiatric patients with depression (but without MS) include hyperactivity of the HPA axis and smaller volumes of the hippocampus," Sicotte said.
"So the next step is to compare MS patients with depression to psychiatric patients with depression to see how the disease progresses in each," she said.

I'm a high-level advertising and marketing executive who's hired - and used- some of the top PR firms in the nation.
As part of their "media training" they commonly tell you lying is fine.
From a direct quote within an Edelman (the nation's largest independent PR firm) session, training our entire senior management team:
"Sometimes, you just have to stand up there and lie. Make the audience or the reporter believe that everything is ok. How many times have you heard a CEO stand up and say "No, I'm not leaving the company" and then - days later - he's gone. Reporters understand that you "had" to do it and they won't hold it against you in your next job when you deal with them again."

The common pattern in AJAX-based UIs is that when user performs an action, it is reflected in the UI instantly, but is marked as unfinished until the arrival AJAX response confirming that everything is OK. This is how e.g. adding an event in Google Calendar works. And when there is an error, that temporary UI change is reverted.
Now, doing such reversion manually is not too creative, so I suspect that there is some "undo helper" in jQuery, which allows to preserve the state of UI elements, and then restore it - kind of attribute stack or something like that. This don't even has to have anything to do with AJAX.
Is there anything like that?

Latin Translation:
That I will, although it will take a LONG time because I don't have much time for reading AND I am a slow reader. XD By the way, does The Metamorphoses get any mention in Latin classes?
52 Iulla13th Jul 2012 06:32:01 AM from America Medioccidentalis , Relationship Status: You can be my wingman any time
That's understandable! Just take it slow and enjoy it Oh yeah, it certainly does! It gets read in advanced classes (poetry translation is notoriously worse than prose), and gets mentioned along with other works.

The dog is "Hello, yes, this is dog." Farnsworth's is "I don't want to live on this planet anymore."

Wow, I didn't know Latin had a word for a planet. By the way, among the languages that are currently used, which would be closest to Latin? Italian?
57 Iulla21st Jul 2012 09:33:37 AM from America Medioccidentalis , Relationship Status: You can be my wingman any time
Yeah, I suppose it would literally be "world"...but they certainly knew that the Earth is round. The word for "circle" is "orbis", and the word for "world/planet" is "orbis terrarum" - literally "circle of lands." Hmm...that's a good question! You can split that up into two different questions for a more clear answer: what languages are closest to Latin in terms of vocabulary, and which languages are closest in terms of grammar. For the first, that's easily Italian: I know of a joke that Italian is basically "Latin words in the ablative case". But the second...I've heard that, grammatically, Romanian is the closest to Latin. French, Spanish, Sardinian, and Portuguese all have aspects of Latin as well.

Double post. I just found this song. Is the Latin grammatically correct?
60 Iulla25th Jul 2012 06:35:45 PM from America Medioccidentalis , Relationship Status: You can be my wingman any time
Well... GRAMMAR AHOY At about 0:45, "quoniqm" is a typo - it should be "quoniam". Actually...that whole section gave me trouble, up until the new verse, anyway. The number on "accipient" was off, for example - that's plural when it should be singular. At around 1:05, the "O quam sancta" verse...each word should end in "-um". I won't bore you with the details, but "lilium" is a neuter word, and "-um" is the neuter ending for this case; "-a" would be the feminine. "Castitas" should be "castitatis". ...I guess I did go into detail. Sorry :( (unless that's what you wanted...in which case I can go into MORE detail.) I might have chosen a different words in a couple of areas as well, but that's not as bad.

Do go into more details if you would like, although I'm not sure how much I can understand.
And I just finished The Aeneid. It is without a doubt a literary masterpiece, filled with brilliant expressions that I personally believe surpass those found in The Iliad and The Odyssey. There are many parts, though, that makes me think that Virgil was not finished with the poem. The ending felt very missing and I disliked Aeneas' rather conspicuous personality change. I guess it makes sense. That said, it was a great experience. Still, I think I should have gotten other translation. I don't know if it's just Fitzgerald, but the verses feel somewhat unnatural. Is it just the Latin grammar?
63 Iulla7th Jan 2013 07:25:50 AM from America Medioccidentalis , Relationship Status: You can be my wingman any time
Awesome, that's great to hear! Virgil actually wanted the Aeneid to be burnt upon his death. It wasn't entirely finished, I don't think, and for whatever reason he didn't want it read. Fortunately for us (unfortunately for him), Augustus ordered the copy saved. I'm pretty sure it was distributed posthumously, and that few had read it while Virgil was alive. It might be that particular translator that gave it an unnatural feel. I've read a couple different versions, and they all had different styles and feelings.

Terracotta Soldier Man
It most likely is the Latin grammar. Roman poetry relies heavily on ambiguity, which often makes it difficult to translate, especially if you want to keep it in anything that resembles a poetic structure. A lot of older translations (i.e. 19th to early 20th century stuff) also intentionally go for the most melodramatic and high-falutin' language they can, which makes for some rather awkward-sounding choices to modern ears. If you're looking for another translation for a comparative reading (or just for whatever reason), I'd recommend the one by David West, which is the current version published by Penguin Classics (so it shouldn't be too hard to find in a decent bookstore). It's a prose translation, but West still tries to capture the feel of the original while also trying to keep the language close to contemporary English.

Jesus Christ is Lord.
Prose translation of poems...hmm...I am not sure, but okay, I will give it a try. It will be a while, though, since I'm reading other books as well. Say, has any of you guys read The Metamorphoses? Which translations would you guys recommend? The one I have and currently reading is Allen Mandelbaum.
Terracotta Soldier Man
Certe! Unfortunately I've only read the first bit of the introduction, in the original Latin. Ovid's not exactly a favorite of mine; he has a bad habit of just inventing words when he doesn't want to say something conventional, which makes him absolutely maddening to translate.
68 IuraCivium27th Jan 2013 04:39:19 PM from Eagleland , Relationship Status: watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
Question on potential adjectival titles (e.g., Musculus): How do we handle when these are feminine or neuter? Should we use a default masculine title (or feminine or neuter if the default is obviously feminine or a machine or something) and have redirects for the other genders?
Jesus Christ is Lord.
69 Madrugada27th Jan 2013 04:53:22 PM , Relationship Status: In season
That's the way the English pages do it, if the trope is the same regardless of the gender of the character, for instance Manipulative Bitch is a feminine redirect to Manipulative Bastard. There are others, where the trope is actually different depending on which gender it is (Action Girl doesn't redirect to Action Hero, because sometimes putting a female in the position of an action hero carries different baggage than putting a guy there.) But Action Heroine does redirect to Action Hero. Confused yet?

Awesome, thank you. Another questionspelling conventions. How do we want to handle i/j and u/v? I'd personally cast my vote for sticking with i only (unless maybe we were handling the title of a work), but I'm ambivalent on u/v.
Jesus Christ is Lord.
(Aw, did I miss a brief period of activity?) I agree that we should use i instead of j, but I like having both v and u. But I'm probably just saying that because that's how I learned it.

Say, what would be the most concise translation of "Anytime, Anywhere, Anything."?
What would be the most succinct translation of "I have nothing more to say to you." In Latin? What would also be the most detached but condemning way to put it?

All glory to the hypnoturtle!
I might have got this wrong (I only started learning Latin a few months ago) so someone might want to doublecheck or correct me, but a couple of ways I can think of are:
- "noli me loqui!" (or "nolite me loqui" if you're addressing more than one person) - "Don't talk to me!" (in the sense of giving a command)
- "te loqui non volo" - "I don't want to talk to you."
- "tacebo" - "I will not say anything."

Belive it or not, there was short article on a front page with no details about the accident and, without any picture.Why I am telling this? While I was taking this pictures a guy dressed in a...more
The very colourful flag of Uganda is one of the most striking national flags of the world. It is comprised of 2 stripes each of Black, Yellow and Red and Red with a crested crane in full colour on a white disk in the middle. Black represents the African people, Yellow stands for sunshine and the Red symbolizes the brotherhood of man. The 3 colours...more
Flip flops/slippers/thongs
Ugandans have a real thing about shoes and I don't just mean that Ugandan men like wearing elaborately pointy things. Ugandan friends have told me that slippers should only be warn in the bathroom. The wearing of slippers/flip flops/ thongs in the street is really frowned upon by Ugandans especially in the towns and cities. I'm not sure where this...more
Drink an Obama
Senator lager is produced in East Africa and aimed at the cheaper end of the market. The beer appeared on the market around 2004 just as some chap in Illinois with a Kenyan dad became Senator there. Now not surprisingly a beer called President is available. The nice cool bottle you see in the photo cost me all of 1200 UGX at a shop cum bar in...more
Muzungu direct translates English...
Mazungu is the term for English speaking person, derived from the fact the the language we speak is named Luzungu. I love how the kids shout out muzungu by... I guess one thing to rememmber in this culture is that it is always custom to greet everyone in the room when you enter, and never forget to greet anyone you know who you may see on the road...more
You don't have to go far in any Ugandan town before you come across a group of young men armed with a small basket full of their tools of the trade; nail clippers, files, assorted abrasive pads and a hotchpotch of different coloured nail varnish. These young men (always men) that will cut file scrub and paint your finger and toe nails for a...more
Uganda sits right on top of the Equator. That makes it hot every day of the year. Every day. Because Uganda is mountainous the temperature can vary a little bit. The highlands o the South West experience a cooler average temperature of 16° C while the North East temperatures exceeding 30° C about 254 days per year! Except for the North East corner...more
This is a great local custom. If you order a cup of coffee in Uganda, they bring you a little pot of coffee that holds about 3 cups. The prices are reasonably low so this is a great idea that just keeps getting better. The coffee? Gorgeous. They grow it here. I didn't see any of those high-priced coffee multi-national chains and I hope they never...more
Cooking method
Bananas or plantains are a staple in the Ugandan diet and can be cooked in every way possible: baked, roasted, boiled, fried,stewed, steamed, grilled. The leaves of the banana are also used to wrap food before cooking it, instead of cooking in a metal or steel pot. No washing of dirty pans!more
greet everyone, and watch you hands
when in the rural areas, not greeting people is seen as very rude, and if you can do it in Luganda people get very excited it's oleyotea nnyabo for a women and oleyotea ssebo for a man... or you can just say Jebale ko, which means well done, but people say it when they pass others and do not feel like talking.Another thing i learned, is that when...more
If you have light-colored skin then everywhere you go in Uganda kids will call out, "Mzungu!" and run after you or your vehicle waving. Mzungu just means foreigner, or white person, and since seeing a white person in a small village is a rarity the kids are curious and want your attention. It's kind of like if Brad Pitt walked down your street at...more
the culutual greeting before askng...
In uganda people will greet each other with teh exchange "hello, how are you?" t which the other responds "finen, how are you?" you can then ask for directions, advice , buy your good in the shop whatever.If you dive in with a question without this preamble it is rather rude.kmore
In the beginning 80's Uganda was recovering from civil war; markets were quite poor, with not a lot of choice for the possible customers ; here in Kygorobya, south of Kasese near Lake George the women sell grated roots (taro) and you barely found other type of food on this market. Here were not the bright colours and bright smiles of African...more
Don't wear flip-flops!
For those of us from the West, wearing flip-flops (or "slippers") while out and about is perfectly acceptable. In Uganda, however, these are only appropriate for use at home, inside. When Westerners wear flip-flops out in Kampala, they look underdressed - kind of like wearing your pajamas outside. Please remember that Ugandans (especially in...more
There are 7-8 different species of banana here in Uganda, the most common being the plantain-like vegetable called matoke. Plantains are more starchy than sweet and must be cooked before being eaten. They are a staple crop in much of Africa, and are served boiled, steamed, baked, or fried. Robert explained that Uganda also have another plantain...more

After Kneeling
After kneeling down to greet granny, she then invites you to sit on her lap like a baby. especially when one has been away for a long time. Its a loving gesture which girls are very fond. Tell you what i was home lately and guess what? Yes i did and i loved it.more
Kneeling instead of Bowing
In Uganda we girls kneel when we´re greeting elders, or delivering something to them. Just like they bow in Japan. Its just a sign of respect but not fear. Once upon a time as i was at high school, a relative of mine and a friend went to visit my great aunt who was leaving near our school. She was just working in the banana plantation and so we...more

Road Side Shopping for Fresh Food
No matter if you are driving your own vehicle or going by pubil transport, there will be people in the street wanting to sell you foods and drinks. This can be quite practical.

Local Food
This is what I ate every day in the hospital canteen (there were some more choices, but this was the best): Matoke and Posho with groundnut sauce! They serve enormous portions for lunch...Matoke = cooked bananas that taste like potatoesPosho = the white stuff, It's made out of cornmore
"Mzungu, Mzungu!"
Whites are called "Mzungu". People will use it like a name when talking to you in the streets: "Hi Mzungu, howayou?", "Mzungu, taxi?" and especially in rural areas you will see kids waving and shouting out "Mzungu! Mzungu!" from every direction.It's just a descriptive term without any (negative) assessment.However, I sometimes found it quite...more

The act of Balancing
It is a very common practise in Southern Uganda to balance weights on the head. It begins with jags of water from the well over baskets to bunches of wood. So don´t be stunned to see people with loads on their heads.more
The people are friendly, but...
The people are friendly, but that doesn't stop many of them from trying to scam you. Be aware of where you place your bags in buses and taxis (and look out for them at every stop along the way).You will probably get approached by children trying to sign up 'sponsors' for their education. Some of these are legitimate, but many of them are children...more
'Uganda' (Swahili for 'Land...
'Uganda' (Swahili for 'Land of the Ganda') was the name used by the Arab and Swahili traders on the East African coast to refer to the kingdom of Buganda, deep in the interior of Africa. These traders first arrived in Buganda in the mid-nineteenth century in search of slaves, ivory, as well as other merchandise. When the European colonialists...more

Surviving Ebola
On Sept 30, 2014, a Liberian man, Thomas Eric Duncan, tested positive for Ebola in a Dallas emergency room. Two nurses were infected before he died. Dozens of others were put in isolation. In West Africa, the virus had already killed thousands and threatened millions more. As the world watched, the disease touched Atlanta, Bethesda, New York City and Omaha. Fear traveled faster, and far wider, than the virus. This special includes first-hand stories from Dr. Kent Brantly, Louise Troh and others who were on the front lines, fought the disease and survived. It examines lessons learned by the medical community and government–plus, an update on the latest research into an Ebola vaccine.

American Radio Works: Beyond the Blackboard: Building Character in Public Schools
In the 1940s, a British headmaster, Kurt Hahn, set up a wilderness school to teach young men skills they'd need to survive World War II: leadership, persistence and working together. Hahn believed these were skills conventional schools should focus on, too. Fifty years later, Hahn's ideas inspired the founding of a network of public schools in the US. Students in these schools outperform their peers on test scores and graduation rates, as well as in motivation, academic engagement and problem solving. This program explores "Expeditionary Learning", traces the history of ideas leading to its inception and investigates what American schools could learn from its success.

American Radio Works: The Living Legacy: Black Colleges in the 21st Century
Before the Civil Rights movement, African Americans were largely barred from White institutions of higher learning. And so Blacks and their White supporters founded their own schools: Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). HBCU graduates helped launch the Civil Rights movement, built the Black middle class, staffed the pulpits of Black churches and the halls of almost every Black primary school before the 1960's. But after desegregation, some began to ask whether HBCUs had outlived their purpose. Yet, for students who attend them, HBCUs still play a crucial and unique role. This program features first-person testimony from students about why they chose an HBCU, and a trip to one in the process of reinventing itself.

American Radio Works: Teaching Teachers
Research shows good teaching makes a big difference in how much kids learn. But the US lacks an effective system for training teachers or helping them get better once they're on the job. This program examines why and asks what it would take to improve American teaching. The program features discussion with researchers who are trying to understand what makes teaching complex and how to determine whether someone is ready to be a teacher. The program also visits US schools taking a page from Japan and radically rethinking how they approach the idea of teacher improvement.

American Radio Works: From Boots to Books: Student Veterans and the New GI Bill
(For Veterans Day)
The longest war in US history is drawing to a close. Now, the men and women who served are coming home and many hope to use higher education to build new lives. They have help from the Post-9/11 GI Bill, a piece of legislation many advocates say offers more support to returning veterans than any policy since the original GI Bill of 1944. This program explores how the first GI Bill revolutionized the lives of millions of young veterans, America's institutions of higher learning and American society at large. But America's economic and academic systems have changed and veterans today are returning to a very different reality than their predecessors.

Dying Words: The AIDS Reporting of Jeff Schmalz
A rising star at The New York Times, Jeffrey Schmalz carefully hid his identity as a gay man from superiors to protect his career. Everything changed December 21, 1990 when he collapsed in the newsroom and was diagnosed with AIDS. He chose to report on the disease that was killing him and countless others. Schmalz's work, largely forgotten today, changed the way The New York Times and American journalism covered AIDS and LGBT issues in general. This program features interviews with former President Bill Clinton, NBA legend Magic Johnson, New York Times publisher Arthur Sulzberger, Jr., author Anna Quindlen and activist Mary Fisher.

Intelligence Squared: Does the Equal Protection Clause forbid racial preferences in state university admissions?
(Presented in partnership with the National Constitution Center)
The 14th Amendment to the US Constitution provides that: "No State shall … deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws." Yet many state universities give substantial preferences to certain races in their admissions decisions. One side may argue that these preferences level the playing field, remedy prior discrimination, and enhance diversity within the classroom, thus redeeming the true promise of equal protection. But the other may say that these preferences are racial discrimination pure and simple, the precise evil that the Equal Protection Clause was intended to forbid.

Capitol Steps: Politics Takes a Holiday
The Capitol Steps began as a group of Senate staffers who set out to satirize the very people and places that employed them. The group was born in December 1981 when some staffers for Senator Charles Percy were planning entertainment for a Christmas party. They decided to dig into the headlines of the day and created song parodies & skits, which conveyed a special brand of satirical humor. Since they began, the Capitol Steps have recorded over 30 albums, been featured on NBC, CBS, ABC and PBS and can be heard twice a year on NPR stations during their Politics Takes a Holiday radio specials.

Getting firsthand information from an actual car owner is one sure way to get an idea of car performance once it leaves the lot. Autobytel features real consumer reviews that give the unbiased experience of a car.
Pros: style and design. car turns a lot of heads with its unigue design.
Cons: no option of leather on 2wd
Advice: drive it !!!! it sells itself.looks of a suv, but the nice quiet, smooth ride of a car. comparison shopped many of the competitors mid-size suv's and after all factors were weighed in, the sante fe came out ahead. great car at a great price and excellent warranty. i did research also on internet for dealer cost vs. msrp and offered dealer price of dealer cost and they took it with no haggling. another savings of $1850 off the already appealing sticker price. as i was writing up paper work on my new sante fe, 3 more sold while i was there. they actually rolled the one out of the showroom which sold. hottest car i have ever seen move at a dealer.
Pros: the ability to swith between automatic and manual
Cons: the bucket seats are somewhat uncomfortable
Advice: test drive and compare the prices. YOU'LL BE SOLD!this car really took my breath away when i first seen it. i never would have imagined myself ever buying a hyundai. But all of that changed when i test drove it. it had the ability to pick up speed and keep up. the interior is very roomy and the exterior is very classy like the jag. and the price....is well within anyone's budget. only problem is the bucket seats are not that comfortable.
Pros: Beautifully styled unibody construction.
Cons: A number of dashboard controls are confusing and unintuitive.
Advice: This is probably not your SUV if you intend to go bouncing around in swamps and and on pockmarked terrain.My Santa Fe LX has the Black Obsidian exterior, and it is a beauty to behold. For being in the 'sub-compact SUV' class, it projects a surprisingly massive appearance. Sitting in the driver's seat and looking out over the hood, one is struck with the feeling of driving a hybrid of the Batmobile and some vehicle you might expect to see in one of the Alien movies. The interior feels spacious and is very well-appointed with lots of luxurious touches one wouldn't expect in a 'value' brand like Hyundai - heated driver and passenger seats, leather seats all around, heated side mirrors, extra power outlets, power everything (with the exception of seats, which, oddly, are not even available as an option). The car drives very solidly. The 2.7 liter V6 provides good power and decent acceleration, though it does tend to hesitate for half a second and then kick into rocket mode when you accelerate hard. And though the standard automatic transmission (mine is the 2WD model, and not the 4WD) claims to have overdrive, it really doesn't *feel* like overdrive while driving the car; i.e., when you take your foot off the gas pedal at highway speeds, you feel some torqueing down and your speed seems to decrease more rapidly than with 'real' overdrive as I've experienced it in other cars. However, the overall driving experience is very good, even with the minor performance flaws. You feel as if you're driving a big, bad, but very stylish truck, even though the thing actually handles much more like a regular passenger vehicle. And no other direct competitor offers so many standard features for the price.
Pros: moonroof,sound system
Cons: cruise control
Advice: the best car you'll get for your moneyI was impressed with how much car you could get for the money. This car comes with gas struts on the hood and trunk, you will not crush things in the trunk when closing, like in other cars. I decided on the LS model since it had all the extras for just $800 more than the GLS, and it was the only way to get the power seat. For that $800 you get power seat,moon roof and the leather seats. It also has the best warranty around, speciallly since I keep my cars for a long time. The only thing I really dislike is the placement of the cruise control 'on' swith, it must have been designed by dumb and dumber. I also drove the 2002 Camry which had the smoother 6 cyl.engine I have ever come across, but by the time you added all the other 'extras' its price was up in the 20s. You could also see that it was a car you could get 'bore' with pretty soon. There was nothing boring about the Sonata LS.
Pros: lumbar - climate control - keyless entry -
Cons: cup holders - poorly placed cruise control switch
Advice: compare features & price with other midsizeON THE PLUS SIDE - Excellent adjustments on driver's seat, interior & exterior styling are improved, dealer financing was at an excellent rate, good standard audio system, ergonomics are very good for most items, keyless door & trunk opener are standard, heated power mirrors are standard, 60/40 split fold down back seat is very useful, standard Michelin tires , sport/auto trans works well, most comparable ares $3000 - $6,000 more. ON THE MINUS SIDE - Cruise control switch is inaccessible, front cup holders hard to access, ABS should be standard on top models, vanity mirror lights don't work unless power is on, no dome light for rear seats, more powerful V6 desirable, larger moon roof possible, leather seats are comfortable but leather is not top quality.
Pros: Comfort
Cons: Back windows don't roll down all the way.
Advice: You get alot more than you pay for.Very quiet & smooth, yet powerful. I feel like I'm sitting ln the lap of luxory.
Pros: the overall affordability
Cons: ABS not standard
Advice: go to a dealer to see and test drive yourself.Of all the cars we tested, this one really had it all. It looks great - I turn heads everywhere I go. The drive is so smooth and quiet - luxury quality. And with the 5 year/60k warranty, I will actually have it paid off before the warranty expires. This is the happiest I've ever been with a new car purchase. The best part, the closest Hyundai dealership is 60 miles from our town, so the salesman did all of our financing over the phone and then actually drove the car to us the same evening.

This self-taught painter was uninterested in art-world acclaim, preferring to paint for himself and let his techniques evolve on his own whims
Gunter Christmann died last November, so he won't see the first retrospective of his 50-year career. But he wasn't the type of artist who cared to comment on his paintings. He preferred to let them speak for themselves.
Born in Berlin and based in Sydney, Gunter is best known for his abstract and figurative works. He produced hard-edged colourfield paintings in the '60s, playful "sprinkle" paintings in the '70s, and vivid "rubbish" paintings, inspired by wind-blown heaps of city litter, in the '80s. He was also a graffitist who incorporated his own tag, OZKAR, into a memorable mid-'90s series of graffiti paintings.
What's distinctive about Gunter's work is the evolution of style and the way that the weight of the painting is nearly always concentrated at the top of the canvas. It draws your eye up; it inverts your usual way of looking at an artwork. Gunter liked to give a birds-eye view of whatever he was painting and his geometric abstractions show an enduring interest in "terra subpede" – the earth underfoot.
Always an inner-city dweller, Gunter lived with his artist wife Jenny in Darlinghurst and wandered around the gritty streets for inspiration. His wife's figure appears in various guises throughout the exhibition at Heide. In hazy urban streetscapes, she is a coated figure seen from behind. Curator Lesley Harding believes that she was Gunter's sounding board, critic and muse rolled into one. "Jenny was his wife, his critic, his constant collaborator. They met in 1962, so she was the one who encouraged him to go to art school and was there right from the start," she says. "There is a whole series of his work that relates to her. She was both muse and mentor."
Gunter responded to life, specifically inner-city life, as he saw and as he lived it. He also respected nature and the random, beautiful chaos it creates around us. He occasionally imposed mathematical limitations upon his work as a challenge, restricting himself to numbers of items or collections of lines.
He had a few unshakeable principles by which he always abided. First and foremost, not to follow fashionable trends. He painted to please himself. Secondly, to preserve the autonomy of each painting, to make sure each vital element had its unique place in the picture. And last but not least, to celebrate chance.
When Gunter was diagnosed with cancer, he refused treatment. He continued to make splatter and shaker box paintings right up until his death. Ultimately, as an artist, he wasn't interested in style. He was interested in integrity.

Apple Maps: London Easter eggs show the London Halo, Olympics and Samsung advert
With iOS 6, Apple has launched Apple Maps, a replacement for Google's Map app. Packed with new features one of the key boasting points of the new Apple Maps is the new 3D mapping feature that lets you see London as you've never seen it before - well unless you've been in an aircraft on the way back from America at the right time, with clear skies.
We've been scanning the city to find a number of fun easter eggs to find yourself, here is what we've found so far.
The Olympic rings hidden in Tower Bridge
Before the Olympics LOCOG installed a set of Olympic rings on Tower Bridge to celebrate the London 2012 games. Before they were unveiled they were hidden - something you can see from above now in Apple Maps.
The Royal Family on Sea Containers House
For the Jubilee river pageant, a giant poster was erected on Sea Containers House to work as the perfect backdrop. Apple Maps has captured that so you can still enjoy it even if you can't get to Lodnon.
Big Ben's multiple times
Taking aerial photos clearly takes time. If you look at Big Ben all the times on the clock's four faces are different. So it is 4pm, 12:45pm, 12:15pm, or 3:30pm?
Olympic Stadium is still getting ready for the London 2012 Games
Remember the Opening Ceremony - tt was amazing, right? But when Apple's Flyover was going over it the stadium was still being built. In fact here you can see what Danny Boyle was trying to achieve with the Thames running through the stage. Oh yeah.
Beach Volleyball at Horse Guards Parade
Still being built.
The London Eye or should that be London Halo
Last time we looked the London Eye on the Thames had pods on it for visitors to stand in. According to Apple the London Eye looks more like the Halo from the mega Microsoft game Halo.
The Gherkin
Someone's left a window open at the top of the Gherkin
Samsung's advert in Piccadilly Circus
You can't see the Samsung Galaxy S3 in the advert, but it looks like Samsung's advertising has paid off on the big billboards of Piccadilly Circus. The name Samsung can be seen. Subliminal messaging or what?
