In the last year,I have been retraining my brain.I attended some boot camps(very expensive ones)with some of the "big Gurus",but soon learned that joining your local REIA group and learning from the Illustrious Jack Miller and friends(like Pete Fortunato)was more insightful.I have learned more listening to Jack and friends audio/video seminars on this website than the $16,000 that I have spent on bootcamps!

|Follicular malignant non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with pronounced plasmacytic differentiation: a plasmacytoma-like lymphoma.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 3920819 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|A case of follicular centroblastic-centrocytic lymphoma with an unusually pronounced plasmacytic component occurring in the gingiva and cervical lymph nodes of a 74-year-old male patient is described. Immunohistological analysis revealed a monotypic intracytoplasmic immunoglobulin pattern (IgM/lambda). The relation between follicular malignant non-Hodgkin's lymphomas and extramedullary plasmacytome is discussed. In the present case the tumour may represent the development of an autonomous plasma cell clone within a follicular centroblastic-centrocytic lymphoma.

HaiVision and Obzerv Collaborate for Long-range Surveillance Video Encoding
Aug 9, 2007 12:00 PM
HaiVision Systems announced technical collaboration with Obzerv Technologies. This technical collaboration is aimed to assure codec performance for the specific attributes of video generated by long-range night surveillance cameras.
The rigors of such video include high contrasts, low-light scenes combined with rapid-scene motion created during long-range panning. The technical collaboration between Obzerv and HaiVision has been established to provide performance benchmarks during encoder development and market test activities. These testing procedures assure integrators that HaiVision's codec systems are performance tunable for severe video applications. A first round of tests done earlier this year has already demonstrated excellent performance for an integration solution.
"Long-range night surveillance applications require very flexible bandwidth management capabilities, operation over unreliable networks, and high-quality efficient compression capable of dealing with scenes exhibiting fast moving and high dynamic range characteristics. Many encoders have trouble dealing reliably with such constraints, even freezing or interrupting services. We submitted HaiVision systems with pathological video sequences that tripped other systems and they came true perfectly," says Deni Bonnier, president of Obzerv Technologies.
"High-end surveillance applications are critical by nature," says Francois Gariepy, HaiVision's president. "It matches perfectly the strengths of our codec products. Our collaboration with Obzerv will deliver a perfectly tuned integrated solution and eliminate risks for our mutual integration partners."

Facebook Makes Changes to App Distribution on iOS
In a blog post yesterday, Facebook announced the introduction of "granular controls for native iOS apps to provide an optimal user experience when driving traffic to your app from Facebook for iOS." This new feature, dubbed "deep linking" will allow developers to create links from news feeds directly to their app or App Store link from within the iOS Facebook app.
By default, published News Feed or Open Graph stories link back to the provided story URL. Developers can now link these stories to deep link back to the iOS app or link to the App Store if the user does not already have the app installed.
Deep links published in News Feed or Open Graph can be accessed from desktop browsers, Android browsers, iOS mobile browsers, the native Andriod Facebook app or the native iOS Facebook app.
When a deep link is tapped inside Facebook for iOS the user is directed to the developer's app. If the app is not already installed, it redirects the user to the App Store so the user can download it easily.
Facebook says that this new way of deep linking will allow users to more seamlessly launch developer's app or webpage inside Facebook, making it effortless to move between the two services.

Emmy season is underway! For the next week, Emmy voters will be checking off names and shows they think are worthy of getting a nomination come July 18. We at TVGuide.com have a few selections in mind ourselves. Next up: our dream ballot for Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series.
Emmys: TVGuide.com's picks for supporting actress in a drama series
Michael Cudlitz, Southland
An unfair longshot, Cudlitz has been first-rate since the series premiere and only got better. As John Cooper continued to spiral, the actor, who won the Critics' Choice Award two weeks ago, dove deeper into his complicated, wounded psyche all the way to the show's (and possibly Cooper's) painful end. This is the last chance for the Emmys to recognize Cudlitz and Southland, which has never been nominated in a major category (it has two stunt coordination wins).
Guillermo Diaz, Scandal
If you're pressed for time, just check out "Seven Fifty-Two" to see Diaz's chops. Shedding light on Huck's tortured (in every way possible) past, the episode is a powerful showcase for Diaz, who exceptionally runs the gamut of emotions and personalities in revealing what has left Huck teetering on the edge of sanity. It's superb, heartbreaking and strong enough to win — if he can get in.
Peter Dinklage, Game of Thrones
Consistently excellent, Dinklage, the 2011 winner, always delivers on Tyrion's wit and wily ways, but nothing was more entertaining than watching him face off with Charles Dance as Tyrion's daddy issues multiplied. Also, two words: drunk Tyrion.

Race dragged out into the openComment on this story
The reaction to my "Cape Town's Secret White Club" column last week made me realise several things about racism in South Africa.
Firstly, there is a denial of racism. Secondly, there is a refusal to talk about it. Not only that, but those black people who do talk about it have a chip on their shoulder.
Thirdly, people of colour generally say that there is racism and white people say there isn't.
Of course, before you go ahead and bite my head off, I am not saying all white people believe that there is no racism, nor am I saying that all white people are racist.
I can completely understand why so many white Capetonians responded the way they did to that column. For years, racism has been synonymous with colonialism and apartheid, hence the need to feel defensive when racism is raised.
But just because I understand does not mean that I agree with the points that some made. Discussions of racism make some white people uncomfortable, because they think they are being attacked. Debates about racism are not attacks on white people, they are attacks on racism. We need to get that straight.
There is a terrible assumption that people make when racism is discussed, that the writer is saying all white people are racist. People approach the issue of racism with the greatest of emotional angst, as if you were making a personal attack on their person.
There are many white people who dedicated their lives to fight the horrible scourge of racism – even when it was completely unsafe for them to do so. These people include Helen Joseph, Helen Suzman, Joe Slovo, Beyers Naude and many other unsung heroes. So it is ridiculous for people to say that we say all white people are racist.
Those who are reluctant to discuss racism and want to bully us out of talking about it should know that we will never stop debating it until it is eradicated from the face of the planet – along with other forms of prejudices against the peoples of the world. Not talking about racism will not end it.
When you write about racism, people tend to want to force you to defend what you have written about. Instead of attending to the issue at hand, they bring in distractions. It seems that South Africans are not ready to end racism because many are not comfortable with us even discussing or acknowledging that it happens every day.
The problem with not wanting to talk about racism is the fact that the people who experience it every day can't pretend they are not experiencing it. It is easy to accuse someone of having a chip on their shoulder, when you have never experienced what they go through. There is also a tendency to want to dismiss racism as people simply being jerks.
Racism is a jerk-ish move. But one can be a jerk without being a racist. We know this. So let us not trivialise racism by telling people who experience it every day how to respond to it. Are you really just being a jerk when your attitude is reserved for one race?
Last week's column received a vehement response from the defenders of Cape Town. Yet a few days later, in a column for another publication, I wrote about what Helen Zille needed to do to get the black vote, and no one accused me of always talking about race. If anything, the commentators were thrilled at my advice to Helen Zille.
When talking about race "benefits" their point of view it seems to be OK to talk about it, but not when exposing race's ugly side.

Congrats! But how about some new items, and more info about the shirts? I want ecological, Fairtrade, bamboo, and hemp!
I tried to buy some T-shirts but I failed.
"Click to calculate shipping" button doesn't work and I can't continue transaction.
I live in CA and I'm using Macintosh OS X 10.5, tried both Firefox 3 and Safari 4.
What can I do next?
Dear Allison Domicone
Thank you for your quick response! I ordered 4 t-shirts and thanks to you it worked properly this time. I also donated $25 today. Good Luck, CC!
I love CC!!! and I love the new fan photo gallery…speaking of, does anyone know who the two guys in the photos above are?? They look very nice in the CC gear ;)
I am trying to order a black CC shirt for my husband, and have tried to order it many times. Your site won't accept my visa debit card, and I am unable to figure out how to pay through pay pal. If there is some way I could send a check in the mail to get a shirt in time for Christmas, I would be very grateful. Please send me an e-mail message with the address where I can send a check or a phone number of a person who could help me.

Sleeping at Warp
View Single Post
April 30 2008, 06:04 PM
Rear Admiral
Location: Riding the plains dispensing justice
Re: Sleeping at Warp
The molecular patterns that constituted Commander Thomas Eugene Paris materialized into cohesion in the vacuum of space. He floated freely within his EVA suit over the brightly lit, arrow-like primary hull of the NCV-901
USS Perseus
. She was sleek and lean and sharp; borne of speed, coiled on her long haunches as if ready to bolt from her restraints at any moment. Four Sovereign-style warp nacelles jutted port and starboard, angled in ventral and dorsal antipode. A fifth warp nacelle lay embedded in her primary hull, for use when the vessel engaged its M-VAM, or Multi-Vector Assault Mode. She could divide into a squadron of three independent ships: the Primary, Secondary and Tertiary cruisers that characterized her as a deep space tactical warship. She had a full complement of shuttlecraft and a Delta Flyer-class Captains Yacht christened the
Star Flyer
. With rare, unstable benemite crystals driving her heart, she cruised at warp nine with a maximum speed of more than nine point nine-nine-nine. While other Prometheus-class ships had equivalent features, and at maximum warp could hypothetically fly from the Sun to Pluto in five seconds, Perseus had a secret weapon: Seven of Nine. She was personally fitting and tweaking each primary engine component herself, with total Borg efficiency. She had asserted he would be able to make the Sol Run in
of a second.
was the fastest ship in the fleeteven before she activated her subspace-bending quantum slipstream drive. She could plot courses for
of thousands of light years and still make curfew. She had weaponry to outmatch any ship of the fleet, tetryon warp plasma, ablative armor, regenerative shielding, and full quantum slipstream drive for each of her sections. She was a bird of power unlike anything in the galaxy.
As Commander Tom Paris fired his suits thrusters over
, he felt a special, kindred connection to this vessel. Watching her being born above the gleaming red planet Mars, sharing space with these two galactic marvels, he knew it was one of the most beautiful sights he would ever see in his life.
And for the first time in his life, he wanted to be a starship captain.
As he drifted down towards the dorsal hull, Tom considered his command. He didnt like the idea of infusing the bioneural computer network with Borg nanoprobes; but there was little doubt he should defer to Seven of Nines technical assessments, and trust in her judgment, as Captain Janeway had always done. With Captain Tuvok incommunicado in the brig, with who knew how many other crewmen, the burden of the problem fell squarely on Toms shoulders. While the crew fought for control against the ship itself, he couldnt help but liken it to roping and breaking a wild horse, in a contest of wills he wasnt about to lose.
Captain Tuvok had put enough faith in him to offer him the exec position; but in truth, given such different personalities (and command styles), Tom couldnt say exactly why. The kind of rapport he and Tuvok shared, even Tom could see, was illogical. But then, he never could say exactly why BElanna had chosen him either. Perhaps stubbornness was a trait Klingons, Vulcans and Terrans shared.
Or it might be my persuasive charm
, hed later tell Harry.
Stronger than Vulcan logic and Klingon ire
. Harry had laughed, but not for the right reason.
Paris to Sally Ride. Im approaching the dorsal section now. An unsteadiness in his voice surprised him. There was more riding on this command than any of his crewmates, even Harry, could know. At the time of his promotion to full Commander, Tom couldnt say why BElanna had believed that he could meet the qualifications for starship command beyond helm. Hed studied
systems with her expert help and somewhat Klingon motivational techniques. Hed passed the technical qualifiers. Then, Captain Chakotay had personally volunteered to help him with his tactical scenario qualifiers. They hadnt wanted to bother Tuvok, preparing a much-deserved leave to Vulcan, with such a request. One at a time, Tom had faced each test and passedone way or another.
The cruelest part of the whole experience was a holographic simulation in which hed had to order BElannalove of his life, mother of his daughter, shipmate of seven yearsto repair a faltering containment field in an attempt to save Voyager from a breaching core. In the simulation, she had repaired the field, but had suffered fatal exposure to warp plasma radiation and perished at the base of the great engine. Like a sacrifice upon an altar, hed had to pull her burnt, lifeless body off the engineering console; he aborted the core ejection sequence with the ship descending into a suns corona. Together, he and his courageous wife had saved the shipqualifying him as Commander, followed by promotion to Executive Officer of Starship
. It was a memory that he knew would stay with him forever.
And later, though shed pressed, hed never actually told BElanna the details of his test. Shed surprised him by intuiting his guilt; and asserted that, if she had had to die, it would be...rather Klingon of her to die at her post. What surprised him was that BElanna seemed to like the sound of that. And later beside him, just before he could drift to sleep, shed said, Just dont forget which crewman will be waiting for you in Sto-Vo-Kor, dear husband.
Serving as exec of
had not prepared him for the same position under Captain Tuvok on
. Unlike the rapport he shared with Chakotay, whom he could at least understand, if not always agree with, Tuvok was a strict keeper of Starfleet rules and Vulcan cultural protocols. A superior officer in every sense of the word, on whom Toms greatest interpersonal aptitudes, as Seven had described them, were utterly lostlike a shuttle in a subspace sinkhole.
Tom had little doubt he could dispense his duties under the Vulcan captain. Not only was the Captain a powerful officer and tactician, Tom counted him among his few true friendsand knew it was reciprocated, if not quite demonstrated. Tuvok not only displayed emotional sensitivity where others were concerned; the Captain was also steadfastly loyal in professional and personal relationshipswhich Tuvok would never shortchange by being anything other than what he was: a Starfleet officer. And a damned stubborn one, too.
Up until the present, the Captain-Exec relationship went surprisingly smoothly, attuned as they were to each others rough spots; and now, each demanded of himself exceptional performances in the comportment of the fledgling space vessel. Tuvok hadnt thrown anyone in the brig (yet), and Tom hadnt started any betting pools. So why was he on edge, even before his wife and daughter had reported to sickbay? It wasnt the pressure, the unknowns, the variables, or just plain extra work involved. It wasnt even the waiting, watchful eye of his father the Admiral Owen Paris, that Tom was certain he sensed behind every Command communique. So what was it that was juicing up his nerves beyond his ability to control? Why was he so keyed up about this mission anyway?
He located his junction. His magnetic boots locked onto the hull and he turned into position. As he knelt to release the plate mechanism, a motion caught his eye.
It came from beneath the saucer section. Far away, a crewman in an EVA suit stood upside-down on the underside of the saucer hull. Tom couldnt tell what he was doing; but around the figure, several panels lay exposed.
Is that a hologram?
Tom wondered.
In an EVA suit?
It was possible the computer would program the holograms to wear environment-appropriate attire; it wouldnt be as disturbing as seeing a crewman wandering around the vacuum of space in a light jacket. Something glinted. Tom strained his vision.
What is he doing?
He hadnt thought to bring a phaser. He released his boots magnetic locks and thrusted towards the figure.
As he approached, Tom squinted in the raw sunlight to assess the crewmans odd motions. The crewman, apparently, did not see him. Beneath the crewman now, Tom could see he was swinging something overhead with great sweeping blows.
Toward a plasma coupling.
Is that a
? Tom asked.
Repeat your last transmission, said Seven of Nine.
Tom inverted and alit with a heavy thudding vibration behind the crewman. Nice day for a walk, he said over the suits com.
The crewman started and turned. Tom studied the short Japanese sword perched in the sunlight.
Maybe youd like to explain what youre doing to my ship.
The crewman faced the Commander. He squinted to see Toms face through the visor. His eyes widened and he stood in attention, sword resting on his shoulder like a phaser rifle. Commander!
Tom didnt recognize him through the reflection off his visor.
Whats your name, crewman?
Chief Master-At-Arms Grifahni Jace. Sir.
Now Tom knew him. The Chief Petty Officer was stationed at Utopia Planitia in a mobile security detachment through Starfleet Command. While the detachment provided light point security around the Fleet Yards, Jace reported to Perseus specifically as temporary chief of dock security.
Expecting a samurai attack, Chief Jace?
Chief Grifahni, Sirmost people call me Grif. Just rectifying ships security, Sir.
Alright, Grif. At ease. Just how do you propose to rectify ships security witha katana, isnt it?
, Sir. Shorter than a katana. He handed it to Tom, hilt first. He noticed the tightly-woven silk handle covering what appeared to be some kind of rough animal skin underneath. He took it in his gloved hand careful not to create a new seam in his EVA suit.
Commander Paris, came Seven of Nines voice over the com. You have not initiated the infusion. Is there a malfunction?
Standby, Seven. Tom studied the strange forging patterns on the short, arcing blade, and then the exposed plasma junctions scattered across the underside of the hull. I suggest you explain all this before you make Seven of Nine any more curious, Chief.
Failsafes, Sir.
What on Mars are you talking about?
The security chief pointed at the conduit. The ODN circuitry, Sir. Ive severed the coupling interface lines around this section of the primary hull.
What will that accomplish?
When the computer cant read a flow regulator, it cant monitor plasma flow. Disable enough plasma coupling interfaces, and the TPS grid failsafes kick in and shut down power to the whole section automatically. No commands necessary. He looked at Tom. You didnt think I was hacking at the conduit, did you Sir? Thats not a recommended procedure.
Thanks, Chief. But why not just pull the ODN lines? Why is it necessary to cut them?
Computer perceives that as a manual operation, and might trigger security countermeasures. Sword cuts simulate plasma leaks.
Where did you learn how to do this, Chief Grifahni?
My father used to decommission Cardassian vessels this way.
It was only then that Tom noticed the Bajoran ridges across the Chiefs nose.
Yes, said the Chief.
You were about to ask me if my father was a Maquis. He was. A military-trained commando, in fact.
Actually I was going to ask you why causing a power outage around this section would give us a tactical advantage, Chief. This section contains crew quarters. Its not as if youll be able to deactivate the security grid from here.
You cant force a computer in a security lockdown. You have to fool it. Confuse it. Think about it, Sir. What utilizes power in crew decks?
Lets see. Environmental controls, replicators, turbolifts . I still dont see the idea. You cant shut down anything more vital than secondary systems.
Thats the idea. Theres no real threat. But with a sudden unexplained power loss across a couple of deckssecondary failsafes go into effect. And turbolifts to the bridge go into standby mode.
Thats right--and with the turbolifts unoperational
We can access a turboshaft through a maintenance shaft. We can penetrate the whole ship.
Failsafes, Tom pondered. Using the ships own systems against it. Not bad.
Meanwhile, bridge stations register it as a minor malfunction. No idea its an attack.
Once in the shaft we could disable more coupling interfaces, create more TPS shutdowns, and disable the security grid. You say your father used to blow up ships this way?
It was war, Sir. He eyed the sword. Would you like me to continue, Commander?
Tom studied the security chief. He had scanned the young mans service record, and had been impressed with the extent of his training, which included Starfleet commando training; but for some reason, Grifahni had never been deployed beyond this somewhat inconsequential, light port duty. Yet for someone in his mid-twenties, he had impressed Tom with his initiative, if not respect for command. We already have a plan in place, Chief Grifahni, which you have put in jeopardy by stepping out of chain of command. Seven of Nine believes a shutdown of the computer core will have the same resultbut
risking lives in unauthorized plasma transfers.
Yes Sir! I apologize Sir! he said without feeling. But around the Yards when we see a problem we solve it. Waiting for chain of command to make a decision on a half-built ship just gets people killed. Sir.
As opposed to hacking at plasma grids with medieval cutlery, you mean.
Would the Commander prefer to implement his plan now Sir?
Tom didnt much care for the young mans unrepentant attitude or cavalier disregard for the ship or crew; but he had to admit: the kid had initiativeand guts. Keep in mind its not a Cardassian ship, he said, and handed back the

I see an editor for 184.108.40.206, but no trainer, is that correct or am I just not finding it? Or is the editor also a trainer? I'm lost. Also, when i click on the trainer, It opens to versions of the game, the console says one is x64 and the other is x86. I am using Windows 8 x64. Is that what is causing it?

Midlands Traveller Series event for the Topper and Optimist classes was hosted by Nottinghamshire County SC (NCSC) on Saturday 21st May 2011. The Topper and Optimist Open attracted nearly 30 Toppers and 10 Optimists.
Topper and Optimist Open 2011
A great weather system sat over and around the UK last weekend. Great, that is for sailing events in the Midlands. NCSC looked great from the approach gravel track; the recently cut grassy rigging and launching area leading onto the lake where a nice F3 South Westerly breeze was just picking up a gentle chop with wave tops glinting in the early summer sunshine. Pauline in the galley was ready with breakfasts which the visitors from around the region, together with the club's junior Saturday Club and participants of a couple of other training courses going on, enjoyed as they parked up trailers and started to prepare for a fabulous day on the water.
Phil Kilburn, PRO for the day, gave the briefing – the wind direction meaning the length if the water could be used to give a 600m first beat. Nearly 40 boats launched for the first of three races through the day. In the 26 strong Topper fleet, Matt Venables from Sutton SC eventually managed to fight off strong competition, including five National and Intermediate RYA Junior Squad members, to take the top spot. He repeated this result in race two which, with one discard to use, gave him the Topper Class win. As the breeze picked up to a strong F4 through the early afternoon Ed Connellan from Middle Nene SC came through strongly to take top spot in the third race. RYA North Zone squaddie Sophie Otter from Hollowell SC sailed a great event and managed to come in third overall to split up the Junior Squad sailors. Local sailor, Lawrence Logan, sailed a consistent event to come in fifth.
Topper and Optimist Open 2011
The Optimist fleet of 10 boats, also well supported by RYA Junior Squad members, enjoyed close racing in the good breeze, the shifty conditions at the first mark due to a clubhouse wind shadow making for difficult tactical decisions up the beat. Arran Holman of Hollowell took two bullets in the first and second races, giving him the top spot for the Optimist Class on the day. Local sailor, Andrew Kilburn, took a good win in race three to give him overall second place. The other Notts County sailor, Tom Smith, was the first Optimist Junior (age 12 or under) giving him the Optimist Midlands Challenge Trophy – a fine glass display case of knots – all to be learnt of course! With sailors coming from as far afield as Trearddur Bay on Anglesey and Scaling Dam near Whitby this was Midlands 'plus' traveller which everyone enjoyed.
The NCSC Club Commodore, John Parr, presented the prizes and trophies. He encouraged a well deserved round of applause from the assembled sailors for their hard working parents and supporters. The prizes and vouchers for the winners were generously made available by Speed Sails – sponsor of the Midlands Optimist Series.
The day ran smoothly and many thanks are due to the club members who did the hard work supporting the racing, manning the safety boats, to Pauline for running the galley and to the Commodore and Kim for work behind the bar as well as officiating at the prize giving.

U.S. Rep. Sam Farr released the following statement today after the Department of Transportations announcement on Friday that it would no longer seek the closure of the Salinas Municipal Airports control tower due to the federal budget sequestration process.
Late last week the DOT moved to stop the furlough of Federal Aviation Administration contract employees which would have had the effect of closing the Salinas tower and 148 other smaller airport control towers across the nation.
Farr (D-Carmel) said:
I voted for the Reducing Flight Delays Act last month to give Secretary LaHood the flexibility he needed to keep open the contract towers on the FAAs closure list, including the Salinas Municipal Airport tower. I am pleased that the Secretary used that flexibility and we will not be forced shutter the airport tower that is so vital to the Central Coasts agriculture community.
Closing the tower would have jeopardized our local economy. As great as this victory is, it reminds us that every day Washington is creating similar damage to our national economy due to sequestration. We must give all federal agencies this same flexibility to reduce the impact because our economy cannot afford any more self-inflicted wounds.

|Food and fitness: associations between crop yields and life-history traits in a longitudinally monitored pre-industrial human population.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 22896645 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|Severe food shortage is associated with increased mortality and reduced reproductive success in contemporary and historical human populations. Studies of wild animal populations have shown that subtle variation in environmental conditions can influence patterns of mortality, fecundity and natural selection, but the fitness implications of such subtle variation on human populations are unclear. Here, we use longitudinal data on local grain production, births, marriages and mortality so as to assess the impact of crop yield variation on individual age-specific mortality and fecundity in two pre-industrial Finnish populations. Although crop yields and fitness traits showed profound year-to-year variation across the 70-year study period, associations between crop yields and mortality or fecundity were generally weak. However, post-reproductive individuals of both sexes, and individuals of lower socio-economic status experienced higher mortality when crop yields were low. This is the first longitudinal, individual-based study of the associations between environmental variation and fitness traits in pre-industrial humans, which emphasizes the importance of a portfolio of mechanisms for coping with low food availability in such populations. The results are consistent with evolutionary ecological predictions that natural selection for resilience to food shortage is likely to weaken with age and be most severe on those with the fewest resources.

Is the Holodeck Evil?
What that episode, which I believe introduced the holodeck, set up was both sides of that device. On the on hand, it's fun and adventure (minus the occasional glitch). On the other hand, it creates a serious moral crisis not dealt with enough which is captured in that quote. You're creating beings, denying them the chance to be anything, and then -with their ignorance- erasing their existence when the fun is over. And the easy thing to say is that they don't really have emotions and are just facsimiles, but we've seen that is not the case time and time again, from Moriarty to the Doctor. Even if you argue they only gain sentience later, there is still the moral dilemma that you are denying a being who would gain sentience the right and ability to do so. You could argue the same things they argued for Data's sentience and definition of being a being.
And as we saw with "The Big Goodbye", the only solution hinted at is just not to inform anyone they're holograms created for amusement. That doesn't solve any of the moral dilemmas; it just sweeps it under the rug and creates a blissful ignorance on both sides.

Re: Is the Holodeck Evil?
To put it another way: If a computer programmer creates a CGI image of a person saying he or she is alive, does that actually make that CGI character alive? Of course not. It's just an image of a person saying it is. An image is not a being - it's just an image, nothing more. And if a robot is made to resemble a human being, and programmed to say it's alive, it's still not alive. Just because it SAYS it is, doesn't mean it REALLY is.
It's the Uncanny Valley, writ large.
Same goes for most holodeck characters. It's only in very unique circumstances that sentience develops.

Re: Is the Holodeck Evil?
Now, regarding the holodeck, I believe most of the creations are merely simulacra, but that it has been shown that the Enterprise computer is likely sentient, considering what it has done in the past, and how it responds to certain requests. A sentient creature is aware of subjective nature. They can think, feel, form opinions, and are aware of themselves. Whether they are alive in the biological sense is not the issue; if they can think, feel, and are self aware, then it is beholden to us to preserve their rights, ones held by all sentient beings.

Re: Is the Holodeck Evil?
And it implies that if you created a computer that could not be reprogrammed it would be sentient. Programmability is not the litmus test for sentience.
Anyway, most holodeck programs are not very complex and can not be called sentient.
I can't prove that the Doctor is sentient. But I can't really prove I'm sentient either, so...

Re: Is the Holodeck Evil?
But all of these characters are at the mercy of the limitations of a writer's imagination. They can't evolve to a perspective that's truly alien to us, otherwise no one could write for it. So, they ALL plateau at the realization and acquisition of Human sentiments and they never evolve, uniquely. They end up being portrayed just as ordinary people who haven't lost their sense of wonder. In that sense, the Holodeck is very evil, because it's not a better or even different song to sing. It just acts as a redress for standard television tropes.

Re: Is the Holodeck Evil?
Every time someone on a Starfleet ship went on and on about how they met this famous person or that famous person (nor not so famous), I just wanted to bang my head. "No Reg, you weren't just arguing physics with Einstein, you were arguing with the Ship's Computer."
Holograms cannot be smarter than the ship's computer. Where is the data or knowledge for a hologram stored? In the ship's computer. How did the ship's computer get all that knowledge? It was programmed or input by someone on the outside.
A computer is just a collection or the sum of it's knowledge.
They used every observable data point, every journal entry, every diary bit, every paper ever written by Leah Brahms to create her hologram. The computer gave some far-fetched nonsense about how 99.99% accurate (or whatever) it was to the real person, with a margin of error. Even IF, IF, IF that were true and capable of creating a hologram indistinguishable from the real person, that still cannot hold true for every historical figure. There is less data available, less diaries and journals for example, from Albert Einstein than Leah Brahms. Even less data to go on for Da Vinci. It's not possible to recreate these "ancient" personas and have them be anywhere near accurate.
Yet they all wanted to believe that Reg was arguing physics with Einstein.

Actual, Sidewinder. Mission successful, zero casualties from hostile firerequest a medical team standing by for Mister Anders.
Mat bit his lip and nodded at Tom, who began to bark orders. They will be standing by in the port hanger bay, Sidewinder, he said as he racked the phone. Colonel Jayne has the Connhave Brother Cavil escorted to the port bay, he ordered as he walked out of CIC.
I have the Conn, aye, Sir, Tom answered.
************************************************** **
Sidewinder powered down the systems as the elevator descended from the airless flight deck to the hanger below. And then he unbuckled his straps and headed back into the troop bay of his Raptor. How is he, Kaboose?
Im no medic, Sidewinder, the EWO said. He began throwing up blood in his helmet as we jumpedand then he lost consciousness. His skin is cold and clammy and his pulse is pretty damn shaky.
Sams eyelids fluttered open and he gaspedSidewinder knelt down on the deck next to him as Kaboose and one of the Marines propped him up so that he could breath easier.
Easy, Mister Anderswere out of that system, and back on
. The Doc is on her way down, Sidewinder said.
And the Cylonthe manlaying on the deck nodded. He held up a small device. I took this from the Basestar, Sidewinder. All of the information is downloaded thereCavil can access if . . ., and his voice trailed off.
None of that, Mister Anders, Sidewinder cut him off in a stern voice. We havent lost anyone on this mission yet and Im damn sure not going to lose someone now that were home, and the Raptor shuddered as the elevator reached the hanger deck and locked into place. One of the Marines opened the hatch and he stood up on the wing, beckoning towards the medics with one arm.
************************************************** **
Make a hole, Mathias growled as he walked along the catwalk and the deck crew and pilots split apart and gave him access to the ladder. He grabbed the rails in his hands and jumped, sliding down to the deck belowthe friction burned his palms and fingers, but he ignored that as he marched over towards the Raptor and the medical team.
Cavil and his guards were just entering the bay as well and they joined him.
Doctor Lindsey Bako looked up at his approach. Symptoms of radiation poisoning, Commanderwill the standard anti-rad treatments help? she asked Cavil.
No, unfortunatelybut the damage will heal itself given time, Brother Cavil answered. Treat the symptoms and his body will heal the damage in a matter of weeks, and he frowned. Unless he has been exposed too long, that is. How long was he out there?
Eighty-four minutes, Sidewinder answered.
Cavils shoulders relaxed and he had a crooked smile on his faceand Mathias sighed with relief at that sight.
left behind a Five on Ragnar Anchorage, Cavil said. They werent sure he was a Cylon, you see. He was there for three hours before my brothers and sisters rescued him, and his recovery was full. Anders should be finebut if my memory serves me correct, he is not going to have a pleasant time in the next few days. He will probably lose his hair, maybe some short-term memory, but he should recover if you keep him hydrated and from developing an infection of the lungs and other tissues.
Commander, Samuel whispered and Mathias knelt down beside him. I got the dataI know the route to find
and the other survivors. The information in on that device, he pointed shakily at what Sidewinder was holding. Cavil can access it, he continued as he shivered. But there is something elseit has the location of their Resurrection Ships. Kill the ships, and you might make them break off the pursuit.
His eyes closed and he sank back down on the stretcher and Lindsey stood. Ive got to get this man to the surgery, Commanderyou can question him later, she snapped. And the sick-berth attendants lifted his stretcher up and they began to move toward the hatch, one nurse holding an IV bag high so that the fluid could enter Sams veins.
As they went, there was a sudden clap. And then a second one, and Mathias looked up to see Jon BanacekRamblerstanding on the catwalk. He clapped his hands a third time, and then other pilots nodded and started to clap. And the deck gang. And the Marine guards. And Mathias.
Then the litter party passed through the hatch and the claps died. Chief Sinclair snarled at his people, Back to work! This is a flight-deck, not a parade! Kirkland! Get that Raptor secured!
Mathias turned around to face Cavil. All right, Brother Cavilwhat the Hells is a Resurrection Ship, and why should I go hunting them?
Cavil sighed. I am so fracked if I ever download, Commanderits a long story and I think you are going to want to hear it in a . . . more discrete environment, shall we say? But Sam is very much rightif that data has the location of those ships, then you need to go after them.
Mathias nodded. Take him to my quarters; Ill be there shortly, he ordered as Sidewinder caught his eye with a small motion.
The Commander stepped up next to the pilot. Was there something you wanted to say, Sidewinder? he whispered.
Something happened on the Basestar that you need to know about, Sir, Sidewinder said as he licked his lips, remembering how the Centurion had absolutely obeyed Sams commands. And is something that you will want to hear in privateIve already ordered Kaboose and the Marines to keep their fracking traps shut about it.
Then walk with me to the surgery, Captain Greene, and we will have a very quiet talk on the way, Mathias said as he headed for the hatch, and Sidewinder left the hanger alongside him.

Backcountry Trail Distances
Corridor Trails Distances
South Kaibab Trail: The trail begins on the South Rim near Yaki Point, and descends to the Colorado River. Elevation change from rim to river is 4860 ft (1480 m), along a 6.3 mile (10.1 km) trail. Because of the unavailability of water and steepness of the South Kaibab Trail, rangers recommend hiking down this trail only - and recommend using the Bright Angel Trail for the hike out.
River Trail: The trail has little elevation variation and follows the Colorado River for 1.7 miles (2.7 km) between the Bright Angel and South Kaibab trails. Two foot bridges permit access to the north side of the Colorado River.
Bright Angel Trail: The trail begins on the South Rim just west of Kolb Studio, and descends to the Colorado River. Elevation change from rim to river is 4460 ft (1360 m), along a 7.8 mile (12.6 km) trail. This trail passes through Indian Garden.
North Kaibab Trail: The trail begins on the North Rim at the head of Roaring Springs Canyon and descends to the Colorado River. Elevation from rim to river is 5850 ft (1780 m), along a 14.2 mi (22.9 km) trail.
DW = drinking water; TF = Toilet Facilities; EP = Emergency Phone; RS = Ranger Station
Corridor Trails Brochure
Only the South Kaibab, Bright Angel, and North Kaibab Trails (known as the Corridor Trails) are maintained and patrolled on a regular basis. These three trails meet at the bottom near the only bridges that span the Colorado River. Together, they create a popular cross-canyon "corridor". The Corridor Trails offer expansive views, reliable water sources, great camping, and the opportunity for hiking in and out on different trails. Backcountry rangers highly recommend this area, especially for your first Grand Canyon adventure.
Two PDF versions of the brochure are available:
Tonto Trail Distances
Tonto Trail: This trail crosses the Tonto Platform approximately 3900 ft (1200 m) below the South Rim, intersecting both the Bright Angel and South Kaibab Trails.
For a table showing distances along the Tonto Trail view the following PDF file: Tonto Trail Distances.

2005 Yiwu Golden Unicorn
My Review
Bana Tea Company's liner notes for this pu-erh suggest this as the ideal "wind down tea" — get home after a long day, kick your feet up, and sip on some of the good stuff.
So how is it? Pretty good. Maybe not my favourite pu-erh from Bana's collection, but then the standard is high over there. The tea smells of burnt wood or charcoal, though the flavour is surprisingly light: Gentle fruit flavours with a singing overtone of honey. This is a rounded tea — and yes, it does make a good tea for the end of the day.
About 2005 Yiwu Golden Unicorn
- Shop: Bana Tea Company
- Types: Loose Leaf Pu-erh, Pu-erh Tea, Raw Pu-erh

Yongchun Fo Shou (Bergamot) Oolong
A mild, delicate kind of oolong that sits very well on the palate.
Golden Bi Luo
A beautiful black tea with a subtle, nutty flavour and a hint of caramel.
Vietnamese Loose Puerh
Come and enjoy a pu-erh that starts slow but blossoms around the third infusion with a surge of sweet smokiness.

Feminist philosophy and information systems
Adam, AE and Richardson, HJ 2001, 'Feminist philosophy and information systems' , Information Systems Frontiers, 3 (2) , pp. 143-154.Full text not available from this repository. (Request a copy)
This paper offers a new approach to the philosophical foundations of information systems (IS) through feminist philosophy and, in particular, feminist epistemology. This can be used to expose the universalizing tendency of many information systems and to show the importance of using real-life complex examples rather than the simplified examples often favored by philosophers. Within traditional epistemology and its relation to IS, subjectivity, the propositional/skills distinction and epistemic hierarchies are subject to arguments from feminist epistemology. With respect to the emerging critical school of IS, feminist epistemology, and within that, feminist standpoint theory, are used to examine the complexities of the positivist/anti-positivist position and the related concept of emancipation. In addition, it is argued that the liberal version of emancipation encapsulated in such systems may have an effect opposite to that of emancipation These issues are illustrated in an existing expert systems project.

Re: Whats everyone playing?[ Edited ]
Hypnoticbrain wrote:
Just got to chapter 4 on LOD this weekend. Who are you gonna use through out the game?
Just outside Lohan right now so I only have access to 4 people right now. I know who I get though and I'm thinking right now alternating Rose/Meru as primaries (nearly always in) and then just rotating others in for XP as I see fit with maybe Kongol or Albert as the 'main' secondaries. However, if I recall, Albert's Additions are 'faster' than Lavitz' so I may not be too fond of him. I like the pace of Lavitz' right now so I may just keep that spot in general rotating to get everyone some time in.
EDIT: Gonna have to adjust to Albert =\ Just got him and can't nail Rod Typhoon down. I got 3 done with Lavitz before you know what but Albert's speed throws me off now. Might revert to one of the other 2 to see if I can get a handle on him.
EDIT2: Think I screwed up. I'm reading about Stardust and that you should have 20 by the end of Disc 1 but I only have 19 and I know I've gotten all the ones in Kazas and I know I had '13' before saving after getting those ones. I think the one I'm missing is in Bale which occupied right now and I don't think I can revisit any time =\ So there goes my 50 SD play through.
Re: Whats everyone playing?
Anyway I use Albert and Rose. I think meru or Miranda would be smarter then using rose but I just love her as a character.

I never understood why people switch guys out, there's not enough exp to go around it seems like. The only decent exp earned is boss battles. Random encounter doesn't yield enough exp to me to proficiency grind other then additions.

I've noticed that with LoD. XP is so low from random battles in this game that it really doesn't seem to matter about keeping other characters in line cause it seems like it'd be too much work cause of how little XP you get. The only thing worth grinding from random encounters in Addition leveling as you mentioned or trying to raise the Dragoon level of a new character (just nabbed Meru's Dragoon Spirit).
Speaking of Additions, I've come to terms with Albert When I played the game when I was a bit younger, I avoided him and certain other character Additions because of the timing involved (kept some people on easier ones) but now I've gotten down his Rod Typhoon so he's been in my party quite a bit. He's a heavy hitter too.
I've got Dart & Rose at Lv 4 for their Dragoon Spirits and I'm thinking of 'grinding' Haschel and Albert to that point too when I get to the next new area (or could do it now). I'm thinking I'll wait for Shana to be 'traded' out before I focus on her leveling and Meru needs to be brought up to speed as well.
EDIT: One of the things I hate about LoD is the 32 item limit, which includes duplicate of items in the count Sucks so much especially when you have a weapon/armor/accessory inventory of 255. I just hate coming across an item box and wondering if I should scrap something to make room for an item and then finding out I don't have any Mind/Body Purifiers in the field when I'm struck with Poison/Fear. Really poor design choice IMO.
Re: Whats everyone playing?
I've been playing Persona 4 since I picked up my pre-ordered copy of Arena on the day of its release. I have a b/c ps3, but I decided to use my ps2 for a 100% authentic experience. It has been quite some time since I've played anything on my ps2, so it's almost like taking a trip back in time...to 2008(whatever, it's still awesome). Anyways, I'm about 55 hours in, and have just finished the summer break.

I wish it was November so I can get the Persona 4 Golden on my Vita. Unfortunately I was unable to get Persona 4 on the PS 2. Just beat Persona 3 Portable the other night. Awesomely fun game. I hope P 4 is more of the same awesomeness.
Re: Whats everyone playing?
Not even mad anymore Was looking at when I could get Kongol's Dragoon Spirit and saw that you could get it as early as Disc 2 by going back to an area from Disc 1 which I thought was strange but sure enough, I made my way back and Bale was open so I got that Stardust I was missing Now I'm sure I'll be able to get all 50 + I have a Dragoon Spirit now for all my characters.

Well, if you liked P3P, then you should like P4 too. It looks like Persona 4 Golden is more than just an enhanced port with extra content. It looks like the graphics have been redone too. I guess P4G will be an incentive to pick up a Vita at some point, though I can't really afford one at this point, so I'll have to hold off for now.
As far as progress in the original P4 goes, I'm just over 65 hours in now, and have passed the secret lab. Awsome story about the sub-boss in the game world though. It was a hand that summoned another hand that was weak against wind. Yosuke hit the summoned enemy's weakness on the first turn, and then Chie was actually able to step in and take out the sub-boss with Galactic Punt. That had to have been some kind of glitch, because there's no way that should have happened, but it did. Talk about the quickest and easiest boss fight ever.

It is with a heavy heart that I will no longer be hosting "memes"!
So Mission 4 Monday will still exist as my blog ONLY and I will NO longer be doing this as a "meme" for others to JOIN me and share!
I truly believe that each one that has participated shared GREAT MISSIONS!
MORE BELOW in my post "NO LONGER A MEME"
Thank you ALL for participating when you were able & sharing your mission & heart with us!
I still believe that each one of us "were made for a mission" and an opportunity crosses our path each week to serve others as a MISSION. Open your eyes & see the needs around us!
I still believe in the great value & worth of sharing MISSIONS!
I still believe that you do not have to be a missionary "sent out in the world" to be a missionary. Your home, your neighborhood, your community is filled with needs to be met with the passion & compassion of Jesus Christ. One day a week or month, take the time. It may be the first "short term" mission that God moves in you & touches others with His love.
I still believe "all" that Rick Warren shared in "The Purpose Driven Life" especially Purpose #5!
I still believe that I will continue to share MISSIONS put on my heart right here.
"God has given you a Life Message to share..."
and I know that HE gave me a LIFE MESSAGE and
I hope to share that through what I post here. I will continue to update on ministries as I have and those in my sidebar.
THANKS MISSION4MONDAY PARTICIPANTS & READERS! Click here to see who participated in MISSION 4 MONDAY!
PRAISE the LORD for REPENTANCE in HAITI! Keep praying; get ready to repent in USA & WORLDWIDE
Tears of the Saints
You are the light of the world' –– Jesus talking to His disciples.
Are we being the 'salt and light' that we are called to be?I needed to remove the Vimeo because it says for PRIVATE USE! It's still worth seeing and all of the others available through Mission Mobilizer. It looks like "Tears of the Saints" is no longer available.
1625 children were forced to live on the streets
1667 children died from malnutrition or disease
115 children became prostitutes
257 children were orphaned because of HIV/Aids.
It gets worse...
2 billion people in the world today have never ever heard of Jesus. 1% of missions financial support, goes to reaching those unreached people. 30,000 people starve to death every day.
