Does the moon revolve or orbit around the earth?
Revolve. _____________________ Both, actually. The Moon is "tidally locked" to the Earth, with the same side always facing the Earth. So it revolves AROUND the Earth, and ROT…ATES on its own axis, with the same period; about 27 days. (MORE)

What makes the moon revolve around the earth is or the pushing force exerted on the moon by the Earth?
Earth has gravity and tends to pull the moon. Moon in its trun has its own gravity and tends to pull the Earth. Due to pulling by both Earth & Moon, the present status q…uo (distance) is maintained. Like all planets in the Solar System, Earth rotates on its Axis. Due to rotation, the lines of attraction between Earth & Moon is broken and this makes the Moon move around the Earth (we can imagine earth & moon as very large magnets and we all know that we can move 1 magnet with the help of another without physical contact through the use of magentic force). As the gravitational force is always constant, the Moon is always held in place in a circular orbit and the same face of the moon is towards the earth. The present position of moon makes it possible to revolve around the earth once in about 29 days. If it were to be farther away, the time for 1 revolution would have been more than 29 days and vice versa. Now let us imagine a mother sitting on the ground and her small child going around her always holding her for support. The face of the child is always towards the Mother and the back of the child can never be seen. I feel this is what is happening in case of earth and moon. 1 face of the moon is always towards the earth and we can say that moon only revolves around the earth. As is generally believed, if moon had taken 29 days for 1 rotation, that we should have seen the other face of the moon after 14.5 days. Thus it can be inferred that moon only revolves around the Earth and the driving force is the action of earth's rotation on its axis. K.Vishwanath, Bangalore India (MORE)
Why does the moon revolve around the earth and not the sun?
Sure it revolves around the Sun - both Earth and Moon move together around the Sun. Answer2: The moon revolves around the earth because the earth's gravitational force on the… moon is greater than the sun's. The sun force is enough to also make the moon revolve around the sun also, so the moon revolves around both the earth and the sun. (MORE)

Interesting Facts About Earth
Earth is the place that each person calls home. It is home to over six billion people and around 8.7 million different species. While everyone lives on Earth, there are many i…nteresting facts that people do not know about the planet. Earth is unique in our solar system as being the only known planet to support the multitudes of different life. Earth facts can reveal the true nature of the place life calls home.It was long thought that Earth was spherical in shape. After careful studies and measurements by scientists, it is now known that earth is more of an oval. If you look at the diameter from pole to pole, Earth is 7882.4 miles long. If you measure the diameter from the equator line, earth measures 7908.9 miles long. The reason for the difference is how the Earth spins. It spins on its axes, which goes through the poles, making some of its mass move away from the poles and to its outside center.When Earth is compared to the Moon, it has less impact craters caused by space debris. The Moon is documented to have billions of craters, as can be seen by looking at it. The reason behind so few craters on the Earth is that Earth possesses an atmosphere, which creates fiction for anything coming into it. The friction caused by an object moving at hundreds of thousands of miles per second entering the Earth?s atmosphere causes the object to burn up before hitting the ground. The Moon has no atmosphere and cannot stop even the smallest meteor hitting its surface, which is why there are so many craters on the Moon.The atmosphere around the Earth keeps the animals and creatures living upon its surface a great deal as far as the requirements of life goes. It weighs around five trillions tons altogether, which is calculated based on the atmospheric pressure it exudes on the surface. The pressure is around one kilogram per square centimeter. The atmosphere protects its inhabitants from harmful space objects like meteors by burning them up before impact as well as harmful light rays such as X-rays, ultraviolet light, infrared and gamma rays.There are certain areas on the Earth that does not have the same gravitational pull as the rest of the globe. Earth, after all, is not a perfect sphere. There is an area in Canada called Hudson Bay that has a lower gravitational force than other regions of the earth. Scientists believe that 25 to 45 percent of the gravitational flux is due to a giant glacier sheet that was in the area long ago causing the Earth's crust to subside somewhat. The rest of the reason behind the gravitational flux can be explained by down drag due to the magma in the Earth's mantle.The place that all known living creatures live is a fascinating place. The Earth facts discussed in this article can give an idea of the type of place life call home. The most important thing that people of planet Earth can do is to look after Earth so that all future generations can experience the wonders that Earth holds.There are not a full 24 hours in a day. The actual time it takes for one day to pass is 23 hours 56 minutes and 4.091 seconds. (MORE)

Debunking the Two Moons Myth
As the Internet has become a bigger and bigger part of the lives of Americans, more and more myths have begun to spread. One of the most prevalent myths to make the rounds in …recent years has been the so-called "Two Moons Myth." This myth takes a number of different forms, always citing some mixture of credible and fabricated scientific sources. The following article will try to address both the true and untrue aspect of this myth, offering you the facts as they stand in real, credible science.The origins of any Internet myth are hard to track down. Usually these sorts of myths come about in one of two ways. First, these myths might be based on actual science. One story gets popular online, and a myriad of copycats take that story and expand it into something sensational in order to get hits on their website or YouTube channel. The second, more sinister way these myths come about is through hackers creating links to false stories with the same sensational headlines. People click on the link and contract a computer virus. In either case, these stories very rarely come from true believers. There is usually some selfish or nefarious purpose at work behind the scenes.One potential source these myth creators use is ancient texts or drawings. They'll say that the Mayans, Greeks, or Chinese once believed there were two moons or said that at one time there was another object in the sky just as bright. The trick to debunking this sort of false evidence is common sense. Astronomy and astrology were of massive interest in the ancient world, both for religious and seafaring purposes. An object the size and brightness of the moon would be hard to miss. If the ancients had known of a second moon, it would have been hugely significant and still be affecting the way we study astronomy today.One of the most recent forms the dual moons myth has taken has been not that Earth secretly has two moons, but at some point in the future another object will appear to be the same size as the moon. Some article will claim that Mars or Venus will soon pass the closest it ever has to Earth and will appear in the night sky as brightly as the moon. The trouble with this argument is one of scale. No matter where on their individual orbits the planets may be, they are still millions of miles farther away from the Earth than the moon. Mathematically, there is no way they could ever appear in the sky the same way the moon does night after night.Does this mean that no object could ever be so bright in the night sky? It does not. The potential for other celestial bodies to pass close enough to the Earth to appear the same size and brightness as the moon exists, no matter how small. Several comets have been known to pass close enough to the Earth to be large and visible for many months. In human memory, none have yet passed so close to be compared to the moon, but scientists are always on the lookout for potential candidates. The most recent near-pass comet is the upcoming C/2012 s1 comet, which is due to pass by Earth in 2013.Technically, it is possible that the Earth may acquire a second moon in the future. While these sorts of events are rare and would have drastic influences on the gravitation of the planet, capturing a new moon is simply a matter of statistics. In fact, scientists now theorize that the Earth acquires small asteroids on a semi-regular basis, which orbit the Earth for the span of a few weeks or months before being cast back into the solar system. Should an asteroid of sufficient size and trajectory ever enter Earth's orbit, it may stay there as a permanent moon.There are simply far too many factors that disprove the possibility of the Earth having a second moon for this myth to be true. The Earth's unique tilt, the movement of the tides, and even the orbit of the Earth around the Sun are all affected by the presence of the Moon. If the Earth had a second moon, or if another object passed the Earth close enough to appear like the Moon in the sky, then the effects could never go unnoticed or be concealed. Questions of this scale are simply too big to be hidden. You have only to look to the skies to see whether this rumor is true.As stated above, rumors such as the dual moons myth are regularly used by hackers to plant virus software on your computer. Be wary of any fantastic headline that claims the Earth has a second moon. Be sure to look at the URL of the link you are provided with to see whether it comes from a trusted source. If you click on the wrong link, it may cause trouble for you and your computer. (MORE)

Aristotle's Influence
Aristotle was one of the first great philosophers from ancient history. One of the people who had the strongest influence on Aristotle's philosophy was his father, who was a p…hysician. As a physician, his father had to observe his patients to determine their illness, and how to treat them. Observation was also a very important part of Aristotle's philosophy in later years. Incorporated with his later education, it formed the philosophy known today as Aristotelianism.Aristotle studied under Plato, the first great philosopher in history. Due to this, many of his theories were reactions to his teacher's theories. For instance, Plato posited that a concrete object, such as a chair, was not actually a chair, merely a representation of a chair. There could be no true chair. On the other hand, Aristotle's philosophy states that to know what something is, one must first know what the purpose or function of it is. This means that since it was made to be a chair, it was intended to be a chair, and it is used as a chair, then it is a chair.The basis of Aristotle's philosophy is rooted in observation. One must first observe, and then draw conclusions. The emphasis on observation led him to the conclusion that syllogism was the only valid form of logic. Syllogism is defined as the drawing of a conclusion, whether validly or not, from two given or assumed premises. It is assumed that his father's occupation as a physician informed Aristotle's emphasis on observation and his own interest in the natural sciences.Aristotle's decision about the knowledge of something was based on the idea of causality. He said that all things could be attributed to four kinds of causes.Material Cause. This is the first type of causality discussed by Aristotle. This is what something is made of. Referring back to the example of the chair, it is a chair because it is made of wood, and chairs are made of wood. Note that this is in terms of Aristotle's thought.Formal Cause. The next type of cause discussed by Aristotle was the formal cause. This cause determines what makes the form of the thing. The wood is arranged into the form of a chair, which makes it a chair.Efficient Cause. This is the third type of cause discussed by Aristotle. Efficient Cause is what triggers the change that makes something what it is. In this example, that would be the carpenter beginning work on the chair.Final Cause. The last type of cause that Aristotle discussed was final cause. This is the purpose of a thing. This means that the chair is meant to be a chair, which makes it a chair.Aristotle never wrote any of his work down. He never published any books, nor did he seek to spread his philosophy. Instead, his work that is read today is a compilation of student notes on his lectures. He taught, and people listened. Although he opposed many of Plato's theories, he had a strong following. Strong enough that he earned a following that is still acknowledged in the 21st century.Aristotle's work was revolutionary. He defined metaphysics, began a school of logic, and contributed thought to many different sciences and arts. The study of his philosophy takes years to fully comprehend. As one of the first great philosophers, Aristotle stands with Plato at the head of a long line of contributors to the way the world thinks today. His idea of causality is only one way to look at the nature of knowledge.Aristotle tutored Alexander the Great, thus his knowledge was passed on to one of the greatest conquerors in history. He also tutored Ptolemy and Cassander, two other men who would later be crowned kings. His influence did not only touch on the philosophical field, it changed the world he lived in, and formed our history. (MORE)

Historical Greats: Philosophy of Plato and Aristotle
Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle are often referred to as "the big three." All Greek philosophers, they were the first big thinkers that would mold the way the Western world beg…an to philosophize. Plato was the student of Socrates. Plato is well known for his Utopian novel, "The Republic," and for the belief of preexistence. Plato believed that a great realm beyond reality exists, composed of ideals. Though Aristotle was a student of Plato's, he would not follow the path set forth for him, instead, he would focus on happiness. One of his best known concepts was "the golden mean," moderation in all things. He wrote hundreds of books and pamphlets, though not all made it through history.Plato is actually not the real name of the famous Philosopher. In fact, the man was a wrestler and Plato is his nickname derived from his days in the ring. Plato was born around 424 BCE in Athens. A student of Socrates, Plato was greatly influenced by the first real philosophical thinker. He would follow very close to Socrates' ideals. Plato's interests included justice, virtue, education, family, rhetoric, literature, art, and politics among many others. He is perhaps most famous for "The Republic," a book about an ideal society, and "Allegory of the Cave." His most notable idea is known as Platonic Realism and Theory of Form. He founded the first higher institution of learning in the Western world, was a mathematician, and also a great writer.Aristotle was Plato's student, and an avid one at that. While Aristotle is one of the most famous philosophers in history, he was perhaps first and foremost a scientist. His main interests were metaphysics, logic, and general science. He was the founder of formal logic, and made mountainous contributions to the scientific method. He is highly regarded as one of the smartest men in the history of the world. His knowledge was truly endless, and throughout his life he would contribute to nearly every facet of science and knowledge in the world.Aristotle's most notable idea is perhaps that of "the golden mean," or the very middle between two extremes. Simply put, here in this middle, according to Aristotle, man will find true happiness. Aristotle, being the student of Plato, may have taken this idea mainly from Socrates, Plato's own teacher. Socrates was documented as teaching that man must "know how to choose the mean and avoid the extremes on either side, as far as possible." An important note regarding the golden mean is that it is never universal, it is fluid between situations.Though Aristotle was Plato's student, the two had very differing ideas, specifically on reason, the soul, and reality. Plato believed that in order to understand reality, one must transcend physical reality into the realm of ideas. This became known as Platonic Realism. On the other hand, Aristotle believed that the universal reality was that the physical form of an object is not detached and is used as a prediction mechanism for that object. Aristotle held that to understand the concept of ultimate reality was to discover the universal that is within the objects that are experienced in the physical reality. Aristotle's ideas seem to focus around a very deep and dialectical understanding of reason. Scientifically and mathematically the two men also did not agree, though fundamentally, they usually had similarities in their views. Though they could not agree on the theory of reality, no one is to say who was right or wrong. Both men are two of the greatest thinkers of all time.Though the student of Plato, Aristotle did not always agree with his influence. Plato followed more closely to Socrates than Aristotle did to Plato, but all three men remain the greatest Greek philosophers who founded some of the most scientifically astounding ideas for their time. While mostly thinkers trying to reason out the status of reality, all three men were also scientists. It is easy to see some of the things that they were correct about despite not having the type of science available today. Aristotle is highly regarded as one of, if not the greatest, thinkers of all time. He may not have always been correct, but the wealth of ideas and knowledge the man possessed is rivaled by almost nobody else in history. However, without Plato, and without Socrates, Aristotle may not have been schooled to be the man regarded so highly in history and philosophy today.There is little known about Socrates, though his Socratic Method laid the foundation and groundwork for logic and philosophy. Most of all that is known about him is known through his students and their writings about him and his methods. Socrates wasn't very popular during his time, largely in part because he said that men who served in government should be at the highest intellect and criticized those who weren't. He was prosecuted for being an atheist because of his views about God, and was sentenced to death. (MORE)

Overview of Sun and Moon Aspects
An astrological aspect is a division of the 360-degree zodiac that creates an angle separating two planets or points. The level of ease or stress of the angle is determined by… the number of degrees separating the two. Sextiles and trines are easy aspects, while stressful aspects are the square and opposition. Conjunctions can go either way.This can be an aspect of ease or stress, depending on how you express the energy. The outer and inner lives are well matched and compatible but can tend toward extremism. The term, "what you see is what you get" easily applies to this pairing because the outer behavior matches the inner feelings. The zodiac sign will have great bearing on the expression of Sun conjunct Moon. This aspect will be more difficult to integrate if the Sun and Moon are in different signs.The easy aspects are the sextiles (60 degree separation) and the trine (90 degrees). Sextiles are in compatible elements (water and earth, fire and air). Trines share the same element. Energy flows freely between the two planets, sometimes with such great ease that their energy and effects are overlooked and forgotten. With the Sun and Moon in easy aspect, there is the promise of contentment with many aspects of life: home, work, and relationships. If you have either of these aspects you are easy going and adaptable to many situations. Out of sign aspects will feel a bit of discomfort as the planets seek to blend different elements and modes.The stressful aspects are the square (45 degrees) and the opposition (180 degrees). Squares are formed by angles that share the same mode: cardinal, fixed, or mutable. The opposition may be the less stressful aspect because, at least, the planets share compatible elements. Nevertheless, both of these aspects create friction. Each planet needs to express its motives and finds restriction coming from the other planet. This can result in an inner conflict. You may not always act on your feelings, which creates inner turmoil and lack of honest self-expression. Aspects from other planets will strengthen or weaken either the Sun or Moon (or both), intensifying the lack of balance.No two people who share the same Sun sign are identical. There are 12 Sun signs and 12 Moon signs creating 144 different combinations. Combined with 12 Rising signs, this number grows to 1,728. With eight more planets to add to the mix, the number of combinations rises astronomically. You really are one in a million!The Sun and Moon are the two primary symbols in a natal chart. An aspect between them will tell you if they are mutually supportive or if there is some stress between your inner and outer life. (MORE)
What way does the moon revolve around Earth?
The moon revolves around the earth from west to east, the same direction as earth's rotation.
Does the moon revolves around the earth?
Yes. Every month (actually about 29 days) the moon makes one orbit of the Earth. This causes the moon to go through one cycle of changes (Full, Last Quarter, New, First Quarte…r) (MORE)
Does the moon accelerate as it revolves around Earth?
Any satellite experiences an acceleration towards its primary (technically, towards the barycenter of the system). With respect to its orbital velocity it accelerat…es for half of its orbit, and decelerates for the other half. This is because its orbit around the earth is an ellipse and not a circle. It accelerates as it moves toward its closest approach to earth (perigee) and then decelerates until it is farthest away from earth (apogee). (MORE)

It's a very big birthday for America's top crimefighting canine.
McGruff the Crime Dog took a bite out of birthday cake on Thursday. The star of a series of ad campaigns encouraging kids to "Take a Bite out of Crime" celebrated the Big 3-0 today.
"As we celebrate McGruff's birthday, and wish him many more productive years, we join with Attorney General Eric Holder in recognizing the important role of evidence-based crime research and policies in preventing crime," said the Department of Justice, which introduced the nation's first McGruff public service announcements 30 years ago this month.
An outspoken advocate against crime, McGruff has made thousands of appearances in television, radio, newspaper, and internet ads on various social issues.

These can all be added and organised from the Animate menu which the script adds.
These layers can then be viewed, composited and exported as an moving animation, .gifs or .tif image sequences for editing.
This plugin (with the help of the external "gifsicle"-program) produces
GIF-animations with more than 256 colors.
this script adds an "anitools" submenu to the "script-fu" menu with entries useful for creating (optimized) animated GIFs:
create scanlines: paint every other horizontal line in each layer with the current foreground layer. this can decrease the size of the resulting GIF and some people like the look :-)
set image framerate: set the frame rate for all layers in the current image.
set layer framerate: set the frame rate for just the current layer.

Alright, this is really embarrassing but... it turns out Metro Redux was only available on 64-bit OS and mine's 32-bit... Like, are you serious!?
So yeah, no hiatus. My comic will continue on just fine.
Hopefully when I get to buy GTA V when it comes out on PC this shit won't repeat itself.
EDIT: Also, heads up because I'm just gonna release the second page of my comic before I work on anymore of them. Because with all the quality I'm putting into the backgrounds, we might get to see the pages get released after like 3 months even if I spent all my spare time on working on it. Like, literally.
So what I'm planning to do is first, release the 2nd page, and then work on more pages but without the over-the-top background quality so I can reduce time. And then I'll be able to pump out pages fairly quicker. Any objections?

I originally asked this question under a discussion on the 913 D3 Driver, but thought perhaps it deserved it's own space...
I currently have a set of AP1's with Titleist 65i (stiff) shafts. I am seriously looking at picking up a 913 D3 driver for this years season.
I am curious whether the shafts I use in my irons provide some guidance on which shaft I should look at for the D3, or if the science in the swing between the irons and the driver is so different that one cannot draw that type of conclusion.
My current driver is a stock shaft in one of the competitors clubs (also a stiff shaft).
My advice to you is to get it fitted by a certified Titleist rep or staff. I did mine in late winter along with the wood and hybrid. I must say, now that I am playing with them, they are just awesome!! I always played stiff shaft but was fitted for X Stiff and it made a world of a difference. Check your local golf courses as there are many demo days comng up. I was fitted at my local GT when Titleist was there for a free fitting session. Once again, I highly recommend it and if you are to spend that kind of money.......
Thanks Tom... I have seen many of your posts and believe you have some good credibility based on your comments to date.
I guess it is time for another fitting !
Great advice Tom. It's a big investment for most golfers so do it once correctly if you can. Check Titleist.ca for fitters and fitting days. If you could spend some time hitting the different stock shafts offered with the Surefit system, and possibly some other available custom options it makes the selection process easier than guessing. Many times driver swings are different than iron tempo, etc and it would be best to dial in launch angle, spin rate and maximum ball speed to your swing with a certified fitter.
Good luck
In regards to your question, I do agree with Tom. The best course of action would be to get set up with a fitting with a local Authorized Titleist Fitting Facility or Sales Rep within your area.
With our various different heads/lofts, our extensive shaft matrix and our SureFit Tour hosel our fitters will be able to dial you in to the proper head/shaft combination. From personal experience not always do the idea of a similiar launching shaft work in both driver and irons; it is player dependent hence why we suggest getting fit.

Ryan P - Team Titleist
Thanks to all for the great advice...
Looks like I will be going for a driver fitting.
Well - I bit the bullet !
I have made an appointment at the Titleist Fitting Center at Eagles Nest in Ontario to get fitted for my new 913 Driver.
I don't know if it will be a D2 or a D3. I will leave it up to the expert to guide me through the selection. I go next week !!!
Good stuff Darius!! One thing to remember is that you go in there completely unbiased to any setting, shaft, loft etc.! The fitters are very extensive and will work to fit your swing. Thats exactly what happened with me and I was quite surprised what I was fitted to. You can read everyones opinion and thoughts of what you should be hitting but why not let the pros take care of it. I was even fitted for the Pro V1x at the same time and I must say that is my ball of choice!! Pretty cool when they start changing shafts and lofts.....you really see the difference. I'd be interested in what you end up with. Have fun!!
Thanks Tom... I was even thinking that I did not want to go in with the preconceived idea that I wanted a D3 or a D2 head. I have not hit either one so I have no bias.
I am really looking forward to see what I end up with. Will certainly post my results.
Well - today was the day for my driver fitting at the Titleist Regional Fitting Center at Eagles Nest Golf Course in Ontario. In spite of a small mix-up with the schedule, the staff still got me in on schedule and looked after me very well.
It was an interesting experience as I started off with my own driver to set a base line. This was important to me so that I could tell if I was going to improve with the new driver. I learned first of all that my swing speed is a little slower than I thought it was (I'm sure many of us think we are faster than we actually are). My swing speed was clocked at 95. My "smash factor" was consistently at 150 with both my driver and with the final combination of head and shaft that Chris Welton zeroed in on. He started me with a variety of shafts that simply did not work for me and eventually found one that was close. Then when he set me up with the D2 head and the Aldila RIP Phenom 60 Stiff shaft I noticed that all of a sudden I was getting very consistent on my line and dispersion.
Here are the key (average) figures that caught my eye...
Swing Speed: My Driver - 94.1 Titleist 913D2 - 94.2
Ball Speed: My Driver - 140.8 Titleist - 141
So far things look the same.
Vertical Launch Angle: My Driver - 12.4 Titleist - 11.6
Spin Rate: My Driver - 3099 Titleist - 2810
Spin Axis: My Driver - 8.8 Titleist - 0.3
Carry: My Driver - 220.5 Titleist - 229.8
Total Distance: My Driver - 252.1 Titleist: 261.5
And here is the real kicker that convinced me to place an order when I got home...
Side Yards ( average distance to the right of my target): My Driver - 23.8yds Titleist - 5.5yds
With the ability to narrow that dispersion, I know that I will have that many more fairways in my future, and best of all, my home course is quite narrow leaving me little room to start down the left side on many holes in order to keep the ball in the fairway. With the ability to keep my drift narrowed, I will be able to aim down the middle of the fairway and avoid the overhanging branches that typically get in the way.
Of course, I would have liked to get an additional 50 yards to my drives, but unfortunately Chris and Titleist can only do so much... An additional 50 yds was probably a little unrealistic :)
Thanks to Chris and Mitch for all the advice. I can hardly wait to get the new driver in my bag.
That is a very thorough review of your experience at Eagles Nest. I am happy to hear that the fitting went well!! Just like me, I did gain extra yards but being dialed in with the dispersion was the selling point also. So tell us the truth, did you work up a sweat swinging all those driver settings, lol. I was beat after my testing!! Enjoy your new driver and being in the fairway is a lot better than re-loading off the tee....
Yes - I was a little worn out when I finished. How many times do you get to the range and try to hit 70 or so perfect drives?
It was worthwhile getting there a little early as it gave me time to hit some warmup balls. At least that way when you are testing the new combinations of heads and shafts your swing is not the question.
Near the end there is no question you feel like you have hit a lot of balls, but it is exciting to see the results improving as they keep dialing in the best combo for you.
The order has been placed for the new driver and I should have it in around 10 days. Then I can take it to my range and more importantly out on the course. My existing driver seems to know something is up though, as it is hitting longer and more fairways than usual. Not sure how I will break the news that it is going to be relegated to the basement with my other old clubs :)
The new kid is now in the bag...
I picked up my new 913D2 driver today. I had just finished my practice and was heading home when our club professional told me my new driver had arrived. So - like any one of you would, I went back down to the range to check it out.
Worked just as well as it did during the fitting :)
Now I wait for my next round which will hopefully be tomorrow (weather permitting as I would hate to have lightning strike my new driver).
Really looking forward to having the new arsenal in the bag. I fully expect to hit more fairways and take that confidence into the other aspects of the game !
Many thanks to Team Titleist for delivering the club in such a timely basis.
My experience with the fitting and the purchase along with the follow-up by TT staff has been second to none. I highly recommend anyone looking to purchase a new driver to get fitted. It is well worth it !

Congrats on your great aquisition. Keep it in the short stuff. Which setting?
Alex... My setting was the standard setting A3
The key seemed to be the shaft selection. We went through 8 shafts if I recall correctly before Chris settled on the right one.
Played my first round with it today and apart from a couple of drives where I got back to far (still not used to the shorter shaft as yet) I hit fairway after fairway aiming down the center instead of aiming down the left side counting on my fade to bring things back to the middle. Fired off a 79 which is a really good sign.

Keeping property within company structures fails to protect husband from divorced wife's claims
In Prest v Petrodel Resources Ltd and Others [2013] UKSC 34, The sums at stake were significant, as his wealth was assessed to be roughly £37.5m.
It is an extremely well-established principle that a company has its own legal identity that is separate to, and independent of, its owners. However, in this case, the husband had failed on numerous occasions to give full and frank disclosure regarding the relevant companies. The court found that there was implicit evidence that the properties were effectively held on a resulting trust for his own benefit.
Since the husband was therefore entitled to the properties in his personal capacity, the court was then able to 'pierce the corporate veil' to ensure that the wife was not deprived of assets to which she would otherwise have been entitled, but for them being held in the name of the companies…

Beyond Diversity and Intercultural Management
|Publication Date
|April 2014
|Hardcover Ebook (PDF) Ebook (EPUB)
|Palgrave Macmillan
Our global world still faces many issues of discrimination. The marginalization faced by people across many different realms of difference is causing significant strife in organizations, governments, and our education systems. Yet the literature and conversations on diversity, intercultural management and related topics on equality have not significantly changed in over twenty years.
Beyond Diversity and Intercultural Management develops a change model designed to challenge prevailing paradigms. Robinson-Easley argues that while equal employment opportunity, diversity, and intercultural management are generally treated separately in the literature, these topics and related issues reside on one continuum and require the same core competencies and skills. This follow up work to Robinson-Easley's Preparing for Today's Global Job Market demonstrates that it is time to move away from a 'managing' mindset and towards a "valuing humanity" mindset, while concomitantly privileging the personal lenses, cultures, and micro-cultures of people who make up today's diverse global world.

Re: Dvorak Mac keyboard in response to clickgrIf you have the original Apple USB keyboard, according to this web page you can just pop the keys off and rearrange them, then use the Dvorak keyboard layout.
I did find a couple of ergonomic keyboards with Dvorak layouts that say they're Mac compatible, but only one appeared to have the special Mac keys. Do a web search for "USB dvorak keyboard Mac" and you should find the same sites I did.

Re: Dvorak Mac keyboard in response to varjak pawThanks Dave!
I have found many Dvorak keyboards in the net as well, but I am looking for the original Apple Keyboard. At the moment I do not have any mac keyboard. If I won't find the one I am looking for, I think I will choose the alternative solution of buying an Apple QWERTY and rearrange the keys as you mention.
varjak paw May 11, 2006 7:42 AM
Re: Dvorak Mac keyboard in response to clickgrApple never, to my recollection, made a Dvorak keyboard, so rearranging the keys on a QWERTY or buying a third-party keyboard are going to be your only options, I believe.

Re: Dvorak Mac keyboard in response to clickgrclickgr,
The only Apple product that I am aware of with a factory direct Dvorak option was the Apple IIc built-in keyboard. A recessed button just above the top row of keys let you "type in secret code" by changing to Dvorak, type a message normally and then see if a friend could decipher what you typed (using qwerty fingering) while on the Dvorak setting.

Re: Dvorak Mac keyboard in response to clickgrclickgr,
I am not sure if Dave's link works for you. He mentions USB but other options are available.
Here is another site to consider:
The real question focuses on what you mean by "looking for the original Apple Keyboard."
If you are referring to one of the many ADB keyboards and not USB, the key cap swapping still works. I have 25 such keyboards in half a dozen Apple OEM styles on the front porch waiting to be unloaded from the last auction. The bid winner only wanted the mice, not the keyboards. Moral? Six or more ADB styles are abundantly available.
So, finding a keyboard at a thrift store for $5 and changing caps will get the job done. BTW, for which computer will this be used?
(Appologies in advance if you are not in a country or area that has an abundant supply : } )

Re: Dvorak Mac keyboard in response to clickgrWhen I was in school (yes, that was during the Pleistocene era) we used a language called APL on IBM selectric typewriter terminals. There was a replaceable type ball to get the characters, but the keyboard was still not adequate -- most of the special characters were not shown.
The Computer Center pasted paper key caps on. They immediately wore out. Then they hit on a brilliant idea -- they pasted new paper key caps on the Fronts (not the tops) of the keys. They lasted forever and were perfectly readable.

Re: Dvorak Mac keyboard in response to Appaloosa mac manWell I will try to make it as much clear as i can.
I am looking for a keyboard, exactly the same as the one that comes with every new Mac computer (USB keyboard), with the only difference that the letter keys are in Dvorak position. I would prefer to avoid opening an Apple Querty keyboard and rearange the keys if that is possible. This keybord is going to be used in a new Mac mini, but aslo sometimes with a PC.
I live in Greece but there is no problem for me if such a keyboard can be found in the US. I will find the way to get it.
Appaloosa mac man May 12, 2006 6:47 AM
Re: Dvorak Mac keyboard in response to clickgrclickgr,
Now we're talking. The Mini uses a USB keyboard and many more options are available. However, I would try posting your question again here:
to get more responses. The power of the discussions is the diversity of users. The more users who read your post, the better chance you have of getting great ideas.
The heading "Other Apple Hardware" may seem like the most logical or appropriate topic for you to choose but it is part of the old folks home called "Older Hardware Products" for Apple fanatics who are losing their teeth but not losing their grip on their 20 year old mouse.
While many of us may have lost our grip on reality - because we really like our old Macs - we make assumptions based on the discussion category. Sorry for the historical histrionics, you just found yourself in the company of old-timers with really old ideas. (Apologies to the under 90 crowd frequenting these haunts.) lol
A Google search may turn up highly customized programmable keyboards, they tend to be rather expensive, in part to pay for the advertising costs associated with marketing unique items.
So, the cheapest option is still to buy a second NEW Apple keyboard and just pop off the keys. It really is painless.

Re: Dvorak Mac keyboard in response to Appaloosa mac manWhen last I used it, there was a small group of research-oriented IBM mainframe folks pushing it hard as a mathematical notational language and engineering productivity tool.
University of Massachusetts at Amherst had developed a version of APL for their original Engineering-oriented time-sharing system. [The UMASS time-sharing system was comparable in importance and scale to Dartmouth's time-sharing system that only supported BASIC.] They hand-coded the innermost parts in Assembly Language, then wrote the rest of APL in APL, then re-wrote a function at a time for better speed.
When UMASS made the leap from their home-grown time-sharing to semi-custom time-sharing on a Control Data 6600, they needed to port APL. They went back to their original APL-in-APL sources, and got a version working very quickly. Later on, they were working with Raytheon to speed it up and develop major engineering support libraries.
All this pre-dates the Personal Computer era by several years, so I have no idea where evolution has taken APL, or what hardware it runs on today.
I think APL was a precursor to Mathematica which was a precursor to The Math Works MathLab. I think of all these package as various incarnations of "Engineering Notebook" packages.

As you value concreteness so deeply, feel free to point out just one example from history where what you advocate, relocating the citizens of another nations and stealing from them, has lead to a good result.
indeed, what Picard did is a reaction to UFP actions. But once he realized that it was a "blood feud" and that the Son'a had a legitimate claim to the planet, if he were being consistent and not the colossal hypocrite that he was being, he'd have said "well, this is no longer an issue of forced relocation, it's now a civil war."
And civil wars fall under the PD, as we see in "redemption." So again, the Baku would lose if Picard were being written consistently.
won't take it, somebody else want to field that? How is Picard NOT violating the PD once he discovers the truth about the Baku and Son'a?
You mean the Son'a who were in the process of planning to murder him and the other Starfleet officers at the time AFTER attacking the Enterprise, because at that point its more of the Son'a are attacking them and the Prime Directive doesn't prevent them from kicking the crap out of people trying to kill them.
But, the Prime Directive

A horse-biting mosquito was recently detected with eastern equine encephalitis, but officials say no further action is warranted.
Selectmen Chairman Paul Sadeck said authorities have alerted the Freetown Youth Athletic Association and the schools about the incident. He said that, while the alert has been raised in Middleboro, it has not been raised in any other surrounding towns. Sadeck said Freetown, in response, will not take any further action at this time.
For instance, the town will not follow a past practice of closing parks after sundown.
He said no human-biting mosquito has been detected with EEE in town.
An authority from the Bristol County Mosquito Control Project could not be reached for comment. The first frost is expected to destroy the majority of the mosquito population, an event authorities expect to happen soon. Fall begins on Sunday.
EEE and West Nile virus has been spotted in towns in the Fall River and Taunton areas.
Mosquitoes carrying West Nile virus have been trapped in Fall River, Somerset, Swansea, Freetown, Westport, Dartmouth, New Bedford, Taunton, Seekonk, Raynham and Attleboro.
Mosquitoes carrying EEE have been found in Mansfield and Tiverton. In Dighton, Easton, Norton and Rehoboth, traps have captured mosquitoes carrying EEE and West Nile virus.
The Department of Health recommends people wear long pants and long-sleeved shirts and socks during the evening and early morning hours when outside. Bug spray works, but should not be used on infants. Officials recommend placing mosquito netting over playpens and baby carriages.
Mosquitoes breed in standing water, so officials recommend cleaning roof gutters, empty planters and wading pools and make sure water isn't collecting in trash cans or recycling bins.

I would like to use doxygen to generate code documentation (of functions) in
.c or
.cc files with Emacs. I found
doxymacs, but it seems not to be maintained anymore (latest version 2007) and I also did not find a way to update the documentation of a function if I change the name of one of the parameters of the function ("unfortunately", I'm used to the great
Roxygen for
.R scripts which can do all nice things, even inserting a documentation right before a function when the point is somewhere in the function).
I found this, but it seems not very useful. However, there is an example here how to use
yasnippets. Has anyone written a yasnippet for doxygen headers? Still, it would not update the parameters if the function name changes. Is there any "better" way to work with doxygen in Emacs? I would assume there are quite a lot of C/C++ programmers that work with Emacs and I would guess that there should be a good tool/approach for code documentation.
I also found this. It's purely based on yasnippet (haven't tried it yet, though).

Editor's Introduction
Johnson, Sherita L., Southern Quarterly
The current issue is a personal and professional reflection of the South as home. As a native of Gainesville, Alabama (just two hours north of Hattiesburg, Mississippi on 1-59), I was raised in a small rural town that still preserves signs of its antebellum past in white and gray marble. Large estates with columned porches and "hidden" gravesites are just a few of the monuments to the Confederacy that symbolize Gainesville's historical significance (it was incorporated around 1832) as a river town on the bluff of the Tombigbee. I should mention that this local history is lost to most of the residents in this now predominately black town. Only reminders of economic prosperity (likely based on slavery) that survived the Civil War linger. The curious cultural anthropologist in me - even as a child - wonders then about the owners (past and present) of the pristine antebellum homes and Confederate soldiers buried just a short distance from my Head Start school building? Most perplexing is where are the monuments to the African Americans and Native Americans) who also once lived there? After all, it is their black descendants who survive today.
Though I became an English professor instead of an anthropologist, I am still driven to excavate early African American cultural contributions to the South. Literary scholars such as William L. Andrews and Frances Smith Foster helped to make this field (and my career) possible considering the scope of their research of African American writers in the nineteenth century. In this special issue of The Southern Quarterly, the contributors extend the conversation about "my southern home" by examining the experiences of African Americans, either as slaves or free people, who considered the South their home throughout the nineteenth century despite the social conflicts they might have encountered while living in the region. It features those African Americans who, as southerners, wrote about matters of race and region in their fiction, poetry, plays, letters, speeches, essays, and autobiographies. This issue concentrates on definitions of southernness that contest an imagined, pure antebellum southern culture as well as a constructed, white hegemonic post-bellum southern identity in the absence of blackness.
To provide a survey of the literary lives of black southerners during this period, we begin with Ben Schiller as he presents slave epistles as crucial documents for cultural historians and literary critics alike. These examples of slave correspondences with their masters show how important critical literacy was for a disempowered class. Schiller's essay serves as an interesting counterpoint for discussing the development of African American literature that essentially centers on narratives written by former slaves. It is important to understand how enslaved blacks also sought ways of engaging in epistolary, public discourse, "though frequently coded and covert," as another way to resist bondage while remaining in the South. Even when escape was the most appealing option, southern black slaves maintained a sense of place as Harriet Jacobs (1813-1897) claimed Edenton, North Carolina. Anne Bradford Warner explains just how Jacobs constructs a different southern home than that which appears in other slave narratives influenced by northern abolitionists: in Edenton, there was a "southern, African American folk community ... organized, functional, and rich with its own cultural legacies and traditions."1
Writing about his native South, William Wells Brown's life and literature inspired this themed-issue. Brown (1814-1884) led a very active public life as an abolitionist and prolific writer. His autobiography, Narrative of William Wells Brown, a Fugitive Slave, Written By Himself (1847), was the first of his numerous books of history, fiction, and travel writing. His novel, Clotel; or, The President's Daughter (1854) is considered the first novel by an African American, which he revised and published several editions. …

Tigers name Anibal Sanchez ALCS Game 1 starter
Tigers-Red Sox ALCS, who has the edge? | Tigers saving Verlander's bullets?
Tigers right hander Anibal Sanchez will start Game 1 of the American League Championship Series against the Red Sox, the club announced Friday.
This announcement was a mere formality, as manager Jim Leyland said Thursday night that Sanchez would "probably" be the starter. Not only that, but Justin Verlander started Thursday, Doug Fister started Tuesday and Max Scherzer worked two innings in relief -- on short rest -- Tuesday. So that left Sanchez.
Sanchez, 29, was 14-8 with an AL best 2.57 ERA during the regular season. He also sports a 1.15 WHIP along with an impressive strikeout rate (202 in 182 innings) and had was the toughest pitcher in the AL to homer against (0.4 HR/9).
In his Game 3 start against the A's, though, Sanchez coughed up six runs (five earned) on eight hits -- including three home runs -- in 4 1/3 innings. He took the loss.

I really like the ability to organize the subscriptions I have within SharpReader and RSSBandit. However, the tree view metaphor makes organization cumbersome, espeically if you come up with a reorganization scheme. I decided to group my subscriptions by their associated entity (ie., DevelopMentor, Microsoft, DotNetWebLogs, Kuro5hin, Radio), which would get me 90% of the way that I needed to go, organizationally. I know of the few others that don't fit (like Joshua Allen, whose URL "SimpleGeek" does not fit within the "gotdotnet.com" match type), but overall this approach works for me. Thought it might work for someone else as well.

Red River Tea Company began nearly 20 years ago, when a personal observation turned into a professional passion.
After graduating from the University of Oklahoma, Jeff Farris worked for a frozen fruit-juice company selling and servicing equipment at convenience stores. An avid fan of fresh-brewed tea, Farris found iced tea options in convenience stores lacking or nonexistent, so he began exploring ways to bring a high-quality solution to market. He quickly recruited his friend and fellow University of Oklahoma grad Rick Scheer, and after moving to Dallas, the pair set out to revolutionize the tea business.

Its that delightful time of year when long weekends follows one after another.
Editors Comment
Its that delightful time of year when long weekends follows one after another. Its that time when we can catch breath mid-way through the year before we speed our way towards the future.
Our homework on Friday was to find out what Whit Monday commemorated; after all it does seem a bit hypocritical to celebrate a holiday without knowing why. Of course we all Googled it and were now better informed Whit Monday is also known as Pentecost Monday, the day after Pentecost and is a Christian festival (not the full explanation, but its all Im going to reveal). One of my favourite memories is from my first visit to Paris, when everything was new, strange and exciting and walking to Sacré Coeur in Montmartre and joining hundreds of pilgrims sitting on the hill for a Pentecostal mass which was being held at the base. It was a very moving experience at an impressionable time of my life and a memory that I will cherish forever; it was an overload of every cultural experience imaginable.
This week too sees the start of a month of football. This is something that I am definitely not qualified to talk about and it occurred to me as I was compiling the TV Guide that football fans can follow the games almost continuously. Again I have memories of various World Cups and I think of where I was at the time (and perhaps how I coped!). The most memorable time has to be in 1994 just before St Helena officially had TV. There was lots of testing going on and residents were picking up snippets of programmes here and there, surprisingly though the coverage of the World Cup football matches was consistent, on time and the reception was always great!
Have a great week!-

Name: Gail MacbethEmail: email@example.com, I am writing just on the chance that someone on the Island may have known my parents Austin and Joy Adams. Sadly both have passed away Austin some years ago and Joy more recently this year. Austin worked for the B.B.C in the seventies and formed a group of men known as the pflummers (spelling not correct ) and Joy started the first Brownie troop on the island. I remember the island fondly as it was the happiest days of my youth. I use to love claiming the rocks of Buck Crater and walking up Green Mountain and Sisters Peak none of which I would attempt now. I would dearly love to come back for a visit...who knows it might just happen. The Garden cottage I remember that the OBeys lived there and I think had something to do with the Critchleys, Mr Critchley being the Governor at the time.

SD Bay research center gets new lease on life
The Center for Bay and Coastal Dynamics, a multi-agency science group focused on San Diego's signature waterway, was renewed this week by the port board in hopes of securing more federal money for research.
The center combines the efforts of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California San Diego, the Hubbs-SeaWorld Research Institute, San Diego State University and the San Diego Unified Port District.
Its charter expired at the end of the year, but the port's board on Tuesday extended its term for five years. The move didn't include any commitment of funds, said Michelle White, environmental policy manager for the port.
"It really is just to continue to collaborative effort to gain a better understanding of the ecological processes that are going on in San Diego Bay," White said.
One of the highest profile efforts to date is the mapping of the bay bottom to locate fault lines, describe underwater habitat zones and track sea levels that are expected rise significantly over the next century. The resulting digital images of the bay eventually will be meshed into three-dimensional displays, educational materials and scientific papers.
Leaders of that effort also are chasing millions of dollars in federal grants, part of the broader effort by the center to leverage the partners' combined expertise to attract outside investment.

CGSV's Guitar Orchestra is conducted by Ben Dix, who also arranges much of the material.
Playing in the CGSV Guitar Orchestra is demanding but rewarding. You must be committed to rehearsals and performances, but your musical appreciation, performance, sight reading and technical skills will improve tremendously. Additionally, friendships develop between orchestra members, and you will experience a great sense of accomplishment from the concert performances.
... for Season 2016 TBD. You must be a CGSV financial member to play in the orchestra (you can join on the day, but better beforehand). You should be prepared to play some scales and 6 minutes of material of your choosing, preferably two pieces of different styles. Sight reading skills are very important in the orchestra, so you will be tested on this too.
Rehearsal Etiquette
Orchestra members: e-mail or call if you can't make it; practice your parts before rehearsal; arrive 10 minutes before scheduled start time; bring your sheet music; listen to the conductor's instructions; watch the conductor's baton.
Concert Etiquette
Orchestra members: wear black; arrive 30 minutes before scheduled performance time; use a vibration tuner; do not tune compulsively or audibly between pieces - it's distracting to the audience.
