Grand Ayatollah Naser Makarem Shirazi (Persian: ناصر مکارم شیرازی, born 3 December 1926 in Shiraz, Iran) is an Iranian Shia marja' and religious leader.
He was born in 1926 in the city of Shiraz, Iran.His ancestors were Iranian Jews who converted to Shia Islam.[2] He finished his school in Shiraz.[3] He started his formal Islamic studies at the age of 14 in the Agha Babakhan Shirazi seminary. After completing the introductory studies, he started studying jurisprudence (fiqh) and its principles (usool al-fiqh).
He made rapid progress and finished studying the complete levels of introductory and both the levels of the intermediate Islamic studies in approximately four years. During this time, he also taught at the Islamic seminary in Shiraz.
At the age of 18, he formally entered the theological seminary of Qom, and for the next five years was present in the religious gatherings and classes of some of the leading Islamic teachers of those days, such as Ayatollah Muhammad Hussein Burujerdi, & Ayatollah Seyyed Kazem Shariatmadari.
In Najaf[edit]
In 1950 he made his way to the seminary of Najaf, Iraq. Here, he was able to take part in classes of teachers such as Ayatollah Muhsin al-Hakim, Ayatollah Abul-Qassim Khoei and Ayatollah Abdul Hadi ash-Shirazi.
At the age of 24, he was granted complete ijtihad by two senior scholars in Najaf. Ayatollah Muhsin al-Hakim also wrote a short, comprehensive letter of commendation for him.
In 1951 he returned to Qom, since he did not have the means to survive and continue his studies in Najaf.
After returning to Iran, Ayatollah Nasir Makarim Shirazi began teaching the intermediate and higher level of studies in usul al-fiqh and fiqh. Also, he was a member of the editorial board of the first Islamic magazine published in Iran named "Maktab'e Eslam", next to Ayatollah Shariatmadari.
He has won the Iranian Royal Academy of Philosophy' award for his essay "Filsuf-Namaha".
Fatwas and viewpoints[edit]
Women's attendance in stadia[edit]
In the aftermath of an attempt by President Ahmadinejad to allow women to attend soccer matches in stadiums (something they are not able to do now), Makarem issued a fatwa objecting to this.[4]
Alternatives to stoning[edit]
Makarem's fatwa concerning stoning to death for adultery reads: "In certain circumstances, death by stoning can be replaced by other methods of punishment".[5]
Makarem issued a fatwa declaring smoking as forbidden (haram).[6]
Dogs and pets[edit]
In 2010 he responded to a request inquiring why a dog is considered unclean under shariah despite a lack of any references to dogs in the Holy Quran. In his fatwa he emphasized that under shariah, dogs are indeed considered unclean based upon riwayahs, reliable narrations (hadith) handed down from the Prophet Muhammad and his household. Makarem described the current Iranian inclination toward dogs as "blindly imitating the West";[7] something that he believes will result in "evil outcomes."
The Iranian ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance reacted to this fatwa by banning all advertisement related to keeping, buying, and selling pets.[8]
In September 2010 he was quoted by the Iranian state news agency IRNA as saying "The Holocaust is nothing but superstition, but Zionists say that people of the world should be forced to accept this. The truth about the Holocaust is not clear, and when the researchers want to examine whether it is true or the Jews have created it to pose as victims, they jail the researchers".[9]
Fatwa against rapper Shahin Najafi[edit]
Following release of the song "Ay Naghi!" ("Hey, Naghi!") by rapper Shahin Najafi,[10] Makarem issued a fatwa declaring Najafi guilty of apostasy.[11]
Political career[edit]
Ayatollah Makarim Shirazi was active in the pre-revolution days, hence he was thrown in jail many times. He was even exiled on three separate occasions to three different locations-Chabahar, Mahabad and Anarak. After the Iranian revolution, he was appointed to the Assembly of Experts for construction and played a major role in writing the first constitution. He is no longer a member of the government, and resides in the city of Qom.

Best Young Fliers Rarity by MLPEndlessNightWatch
©2012-2016 MLPEndlessNight
I've been wanting to make this one for awhile now.
She's so sparkly.
She's so sparkly.
So, technically she's an Alicorn in this shot.
how long did it take to make the wings?
She was built on a toy with wings, but I repainted and tweaked them a bit. Wings just need to be carefully planned and built into the armature if you're going to do them from scratch, I got lucky on this one.
The wings look complicated. Did you have difficulty doing them?
Omg,thats adorable!
i didnt like rarity's lipstik,scarf and headpiece in the ep,but this is awesome!!!!
Well, it's definitely stage make up (that is - meant to be seen from a distance) and on very heavy.
This one was a really unique piece and she went to a very good home
This one was a really unique piece and she went to a very good home
Agreed on both counts (and Rarity is my favorite, heh).
Is that felt? Really nice detail here.
oh wow, awesome!

I have 3 items in play...
1) UIView sits at the base of the hierarchy and contains the UIScrollview. 2) UIScrollview that is presenting a lengthy user form. 3) An invisible button on the UIScrollview that I'm using to provide "hide the keyboard" features.
Notice in the code below that I'm registering to be notified when the keyboard is going to appear and again when it's going to disappear. These are working great.
My problem is seemingly one of "layers". See below where I insert the button into the view atIndex:0. This causes the button to be activated and "stuffed" behind the scrollview so that when you click on it, the scrollview grabs the touch and the button is unaware. There is no way to "reach" the button and suppress the keyboard.
However, if I insert atIndex:1, the button gets super imposed on top of the text entry fields and so any touch at all is acted upon by the button, which immediately suppresses the keyboard and then disappears.
How do I insert the button on top of the UIScrollview but behind the UITextfields that sit there?
other logistics: I have a -(void) hidekeyboard function that I have setup with the UIButtion as an IBAction(). And I have the UIButton connected to "files owner" via a ctrl-drag/drop. (Do I need both of those conventions?)
This code in ViewDidLoad()...

Slim and elegant, the new X22 notebook personal computer from Samsung Electronics was designed to impress with its rich specifications - including Intel Celeron technology, a 14.1-inch display, a 120-gigabyte hard drive and an eight-cell battery. But attention is also due to its Silver Nano anti-bacterial keyboard. Samsung uses a coating of molecule-sized silver particles on the keyboard to sanitise it. The company says Silver Nano ions neutralise more than 650 types of bacteria. The X22 laptop, which weighs 2.39kg including the battery, costs HK$10,980.

I love James Henry, Peter Robin and Hugh Arthur.
I'm not too fond of Theodore Anderson (Anderson is a surname and I'm not crazy about surnames-turned-first-names, Theodore Anders would sound great though, and I love Theo), Conrad Alexander (everytime I heard Conrad, I think comrade, just for the sake of my own pleasure (it's on my own list of combinations), I will mention that Theodore/Theo Alexander is a gorgeous combination *wink wink*) and Simon Sterling (again, Sterling is too much of a surname for my liking).

If we really inhabited a "post-racial" world, the news of the week would be that a Democrat has won the White House. But since we don't inhabit such a world, there is much more to the news, even more than that an African-American, far-left Democrat has won the White House.
The New York Times' Thomas Friedman clued us in the morning after, waxing rhapsodic (or something): "And so it came to pass that on Nov. 4, 2008, shortly after 11 p.m. Eastern time, the American Civil War ended, as a black man -- Barack Hussein Obama -- won enough electoral votes to become president of the United States. A civil war that, in many ways, began at Bull Run, Va., on July 21, 1861, ended 147 years later via a ballot box in the very same state."
As befitting a Pulitzer-Prize winner, Friedman was only just warming up ("For nothing more symbolically illustrated the final chapter of America's Civil War than the fact that" blah blah...). But there were others taking up a similar battle cry. Madeleine M. Kunin, former governor of Vermont (and, as she also bills herself, eternal "first woman governor" of Vermont) declared at the online Huffington Post that the election of Barack Obama "is, in a sense, the culmination of Lincoln's quest -- a more perfect union."
And, well, so it came to pass that in those earliest hours of the new era that Spike Lee went on MSNBC to tell us will heretofore be known as AB (After Barack, natch, with all past millennia relegated to BB, Before Barack), the Civil War ended, and Lincoln's "more perfect union" was achieved. What next -- or, perhaps, why bother? That is, who could ask for anything more?
One answer is Menachem Rosensaft, who, elsewhere on Huffpo, pushed the election results into a somewhat different cosmic direction. "On Nov. 4, 2008, at 11 pm," he wrote, "Robert Kennedy finally won."
I rubbed my eyes but Rosensaft continued: "Forty years after his assassination shattered dreams and brought his quest to change America to a sudden, brutal halt, Robert Kennedy reached the goal that had been denied him in life."
Now I was starting to get it. Candidate Obama, whom the media permitted to remain a political cipher behind the flowing messiah robes, is now President-Elect Obama, magic mirror of historical redress.
No doubt this would present where's-the-beef style problems for the average president, but Obama isn't destined to be the average president -- or so we have been led to believe. Or, rather, so we have led ourselves to believe.

How I get ready for a conference talk
Not just how I get ready for a conference talk, but how I have been getting ready for my first conference talk.
Conference season is in full swing in the software world. For the past few months, I have been spending a little time each week preparing for my first real conference talk at CAST 2014. I've done a talk at my local software testers group here in Nashville, and facilitated events quite a few times now, but for me, this is the real deal. The conference isn't till mid August so I've got a little time and some work to do yet but I've learned quite a few lessons so far.
Continuous Delivery Envy (And A Bonus!)
I was on vacation in Luddington, Michigan and my iPhone ran out of space.
That's not a huge problem; I deleted some photos and some apps, and then clicked to install an operating system update. Applying the update should apply the patch and also delete any obsolete code, right?
My phone never returned from the update. Instead, it came back with an image indicating the phone needed to be plugged into iTunes. I was away from my laptop for July vacation, so I was entirely out of service for two days. After that, when I plugged the phone in, I was told that the Mac needed to restore the phone from backup.
Despite a dearth of popular press coverage, googling tells me this was not an isolated event.
Sadly, I'm afraid we can expect more of this. Today, I'd like to talk about how to prevent it at our companies.
Kaitlyn Weatherbrain's New EconomyAmazon, Books, economy, jobs
My daughter, Kathleen, just released her first book: The Treacherous Journey of Kaitlyn Weatherbrain. The book is available on Amazon in Paperback and Kindle edition, starting at $2.99. Here's the description:
When Kaitlyn Weatherbrain decides to take a vacation with her two best friends, she isn't prepared for a race across a strange planet to stop an evil villain. Luckily, Kate and the rest of her new-found friends happen to have superpowers. With their powers, futuristic technology, and a little bit of luck, the friends hope to overcome their villain and his nefarious boss, who plan to take over Earth. Can they save their home and families in time? Are their powers strong enough to avoid getting crushed by the giant robot?
Katie completed the book at the end of November, on paper, as part of National Novel Writing Month. For the next six months she typed in her manuscript into a computer, edited the work, then spent June formatting it to fit the right typeface. At the end of the month we adjusted the book to fit a 5″x8″ word template, uploaded the document to CreateSpace, and followed the process to get the book published.
Ten years ago her 'book' would have ended up on the slush pile of a dozen agents. Twenty years ago the 'book' would have been printed and punched and stuck into a three-ring binder to hand out at family reunions, or, perhaps, photocopied and mailed to relatives at Christmas. Today, it is on Amazon.
The amazing thing?
Katie is eleven. Continued »
So you want to scale your team
You have a team of developers and they have been doing such a good job that you need more of them so they can do more of what they've been doing. But your test team is just barely keeping up with things as they are and you only have so much budget to go around. This is a good problem to have, but it is still a problem. If you absolutely can not hire more folks that specialize in testing, there is still hope. There are a few options you can consider that might help you to continue producing that same good software with a minimal staff.
The Continuous Delivery BacklashContinuous delivery, DevOps, IT, Mobile
It's been two weeks since I have upgraded my computer. It has eighteen applications asking to upgrade — plus the operating system.
And that's just my phone.
What's worse is that I need these updates, or at least some of them. My current version of iTunes gets "stuck" and shows the cover art of Jackson Browne on every song occasionally, while twitpic crashes every time I launch it.
Meanwhile, on my WindowsXP machine, Adobe Acrobat is struck in an update loop. Every time you update Acrobat, it asks to update again.
Then there's Turbotax, which asked to update, reloading a 50MB file, literally every single time I launched it this February, March, and April.
How did we get here?
Too many companies took delivery ideas from the web, like continuous delivery, (or "CD") and tried to apply them to the desktop, without considering the context.
This may be leading to a backlash against continuous delivery, at least for applications. Before we get to that, though, let's have a little history.
Royal rumble: Nest VS Honeywell Lyric
I like home automation and smart home gadgets a lot. But mostly, I like gadgets that are dead easy to install, will save me a little bit of money over time, and make life a little bit easier. That doesn't seem like to much to ask.
A new smart thermostat is about to appear on the block: the Honeywell Lyric. I have had a Nest in my home for about a year now and have really enjoyed it. The Lyric seems to have some similarities but also some key differences that will set it apart. Amazon is currently listing the Nest at $249 and the Lyric for $279, quite expensive for a thermostat, so I wanted to see how these two thermostats compare feature by feature.
On Burnout
Many of us are familiar with the idea of burnout at work: The boss requires mandatory 60-hour weeks, then the crisis hits, and six months later, our brain is a pile of goo.
Generally, in some way, the story involves the evil boss meme. "It's not my fault", and so on. Personally, I've never really experienced the evil boss. Even if the boss does require overtime, the boss can't be everywhere, all the time. People sneak off for long lunches, come in late, surf the web, and otherwise do things to take relief during the work week.
No, today I am going to talk about a more insidious kind of burnout: The kind we do to ourselves. Continued »
An early view of Apple WWDC
WWDC is happening right now. June 2nd through 6th your tech news feed will be barraged all things Apple. That isn't much different from normal though, right? There seems to be a slightly different version of the iPhone every few months now. While the conference has just begun, there is plenty of stuff to talk about. A couple things are apparent: Steve Jobs is no longer with us, the keynotes so far have been lack luster, and the audience doesn't seem all that into it like they have been in the past. Still, there are a few big announcements.
Conferring In Other Cultures
Conferences are wonderful, relaxing, a chance to learn new things, recharge your batteries, make new friends.
Now imagine the conference you want to go to is in a foreign country. Perhaps the conference itself is in english, at a five star hotel — but once you leave the building, the average person speaks about as much English as you do Spanish. (Which is to say, not much.)
That is exactly what happened to me this week, as I flew to ExpoQA in Madrid, Spain. Actually, it was a bit more challenging: Half the conference sessions were in Spanish, and about half the audience in my session word headphones and only understood me in Spanish.
Along the way, I learned a few pointers I thought you might like to hear before you get in that plane to another country. Continued »
Continuing tech education: A review of RTI OnlineCareer Development
A couple months ago I wrote about a few options for people interested in tech education outside of a university environment. I recently took a 3 day course online from James Bach called RTIOnline. The purpose of this class is to develop practical skills for software testers at all levels. I am going to review the class as well as discuss a few reasons this style of education is significantly different from what I've talked about in previous articles.
Lets take a look…

How low can you go? With these Low Rise Half-Toe Grip Socks, it will feel like you're still barefoot.
For those that have bunions along with doing yoga!
I purchased these toesox for the ability to balance on one foot in yoga. I have a bunion and it keeps the toes separated so that I can balance during yoga class. I can't believe how well they work. They also help me from slipping on the yoga mat. I tend to perspire a lot and with bare feet I was slipping, and this helped solve that problem also. Love them.

Hammered-dulcimer player Harry Vayo continues Midsummer Lakeside Concerts
Hammered-dulcimer player Harry Vayo continues the Bates College Midsummer Lakeside Concert Series at 6 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 5, in the Florence Keigwin Amphitheater at the college's Lake Andrews.
Midsummer Lakeside concerts take place on Thursdays in July and August. The series concludes on Aug. 12 with the Celtic-bluegrass fusion band Irish Hill.
Sponsored by the Garcelon Society, the Bingham Betterment Fund and the Harward Center for Community Partnerships at Bates, these family concerts are open to the public at no cost. Listeners are encouraged to bring a picnic and lawn chairs or blankets.
An alternative site will be announced in case of rain. For more information, please call 207-786-6400.
A master of the hammered dulcimer and a self-described healing musician, Vayo performs his own compositions, Celtic and Asian tunes, Beatles songs, Cajun sounds and an occasional classical piece. He has made two recordings and has appeared at the Common Ground Fair and New Year's by the Bay in Belfast, among many other Maine venues.
A local quartet, Irish Hill offers a heartfelt blend of Celtic, bluegrass and old-time fiddle music. The players are guitarist Scott Williams, mandolinist Roberta Hill, fiddler-banjoist Michael Conant and bassist Tim Clough. Rich harmonies by Hill and Conant round out Irish Hill's distinctive sound.

Creating Oral HistoriesEdit This Page
From FamilySearch Wiki
Family history interviews are a good way to capture memories before they are lost. They help you verify and preserve names and dates—the sort of information you would typically record on a family group sheet or pedigree chart. These interviews are also one of the best ways to preserve a wealth of stories, testimonies, thoughts, and feelings. The process of doing a family history interview is really very simple and you will learn it best by practicing. Most people feel very comfortable with it after only one or two interviews. This lesson will help you gain enough confidence to conduct your first interview. The information is general, and you should adapt it to your individual circumstances.
Whom to Interview
Your first task is to decide whom to interview and why. You may want to interview someone who can provide information about a particular ancestor. Or you may want to do more general interviews with perhaps your oldest living relative, another member of y our family, your town's oldest resident, a neighbor, or anyone who may have ties to or information about your family. You should usually conduct interviews one on one. Some situations, however, such as extended family gatherings, may provide a unique opportunity to capture the memories of several people at one time. In this sort of situation, you might simply set up your video or tape recorder and introduce a discussion topic to the group, such as inviting them to share their favorite memories of Grandma. As the group shares their memories, individuals will tend to remember more than they would if they were interviewed alone. Keep in mind that you may not always be able to distinguish who is saying what on the recording on the group session, particularly if you only have an audio recording. And group noise may make parts of the interview inaudible. You can compensate for those disadvantages by using more than one recording device and by identifying the different voices as soon as possible after the recording session.
Expert Tip: Face-to-face interviews are usually the most effective. If the person you want to interview does not live close to you, however, a telephone interview is an alternative. See appendix A for information about various recording options.

It's still summer, but the Boys & Girls Clubs are working to curb the trend of kids having nowhere to go during the after-school hours.
Statistics show that a third of all juvenile violent crimes happen between the hours of 3:00 and 7:00 p.m.
Part of the reason is that many parents are working during that time, and kids and teens don't have a supervised place to spend those hours.
The Boys & Girls Clubs are starting a nationwide initiative, the Great Futures Campaign to curb that trend for the upcoming school year.
They encourage parents to enroll their children into the program, which costs only $15.00.
For a list of the Boys & Girls clubs near you, as well as a look at the activities and programs they offer, including summer camp, click here.

Good service but poor accommodation
Although the room we were staying in was nicely decorated and was quite spacious, it was really poorly laid out (e.g.
sofa facing the see-through door of the bathroom, television facing the kitchen area rather than sofa or bed). Also, despite having two windows the room had no natural daylight as we were effectively two storeys below ground. As we were only staying two nights this wasn't a major issue but I don't feel it was made clear enough on the website that this was the case when booking. Also the hand towel in the bathroom was dirty when we arrived. Otherwise, the service was friendly and location very good.

|Key Info
Ca'n Piedro, Puerto Pollenca, Mallorca
Ca'n Piedro is a wonderful Majorcan semi-detached country house in the beautiful area of Boquer, very close to Puerta Pollensa and its beaches. The villa has been renovated as a holiday home with enormous sensitivity to the buildings` original design and decoration. Really making this Finca stand out amongst others are its stunning gardens, where stone paths meander between plantings of Mediterranean flowers and shrubs to secret seating areas.
The villa is cool and rustic with thick stone walls, high beamed ceilings and original tiled floors and there is some beautiful antique Majorcan furniture here, some of it original to the house.
On the ground floor there is a spacious rustic lounge and dining room, which is reached by an exterior doorway. The kitchen combines tradition with up to date fittings such as electric oven, ceramic hob, dishwasher, fridge/freezer and a washing machine. Double doors lead out onto the barbecue area and exterior terraces with views of the mountains beyond. The exterior full bathroom is also situated near the barbecue area.
On the upper floor, there are two twin bedrooms one (of them with an en suite full bathroom) and a double bedroom. A further full bathroom completes the accommodation at this level.
The Tramuntana mountains rise steeply to the rear, making a dramatic backdrop; whilst at the front the views from the pool area are amazing, overlooking the whole resort of Port Pollensa.
Ca'n Piedro is a really wonderful farm house bursting with historic character; a lovely place for a relaxing and peaceful holiday with a group of friends or family. It is in some of the most impressive countryside on Mallorca and so it also makes a good base for walking, bird-watching, sketching and cycling. The town of Puerto Pollenca with its seemingly endless choice of restaurants and bars is not much more than a 10 minutes' walk and the beach 5 mins further.
The historic town of Pollensa is also just a 10-minute drive.

The Balearic Islands region
Away from the island's bustling capital Palma and the frenetic atmosphere of its nearby "high rise" resorts, a startling change of pace and scenery takes over. Fertile fields dotted with windmills turning lazily in the breeze, give way to rolling countryside covered in olive and almond groves punctuated by vineyards and small, sun-bleached villages. Medieval monasteries and castles perch quixotically atop pine clad mountains and look out over the azure sea that encircles the island's 400 km of beautiful coastline, most of which is surprisingly untouched by signs of mass tourism and remains virtually unknown to all but a few of Mallorca's many visitors.
With fabulous white sand beaches and historic towns of Pollenca, Campanet & Inca to name but a few, placed on the north west of the island of Mallorca sits below the inspiring Tramuntana mountains. Here the island of Mallorca retains a leisurely atmosphere reminiscent of bygone days with many small villages virtually untouched by tourism, where you can find a sunny Church square to join the locals in watching the world go by.
In the south of Mallorca, pretty harbour sides and sophisticated yachting resorts hide in sandy coves protected by pine clad headlands. Inland, below splendid monasteries perched on lofty mountain tops, life still beats to the rhythm of rural Mallorcan life.
With 6 Michelin starred restaurants, bodegas producing quality Mallorca wines, walking and cycle routes and world class golf courses, Mallorca is amongst the most sophisticated destinations of the Med.
On our Mallorca website you will find seaside apartments and a selection of individual Mallorca villas for rent ranging from centuries old farmhouse to neat little Villas near the beach
Puerto Pollensa
Pollenca, Mallorca (Majorca)
El Pont Roma, the roman bridge on the edge of the town is living evidence of Pollencas Roman origins and subsequently each generation has left its mark without overwhelming this delightful small town. In this way, Pollenca has learned to accept and adapt to tourism without losing its soul and where, these days, at the vibrant Sunday morning market spilling out over the Placa Major, locals and tourists alike mingle between the wide varieties of stalls. Wandering through the narrow cobbled streets you will find many lovely old churches plus numerous small art galleries and handicraft shops. A pause for coffee and a pastry is recommended before climbing the tree lined Calvari steps - there are 365 of them, one for every day of the year - amply rewarded at the summit by panoramic views across to the northernmost tip of the island from the Calvari church! If you are here during Easter, then you will be lucky enough to witness the moving procession on Good Friday, when a figure of Christ is removed from a cross and carried down the steps by torchlight. The months of August and September have much to offer music lovers as Pollenca hosts its annual classical music festival with many concerts and at any time of year, bon viveurs will find a number of outstanding restaurants as well as small tapas bars tucked away behind the impressive central square.
Outside the town the rolling countryside is excellent for walkers and for a day by the sea, Puerto Pollenca with its lovely beaches, is only a 5-minute drive away. Nearby there's a good but hilly 9-hole golf course.

It's called Boxing day - you know, the Canadian Black Friday? #1.1.1 Agree(0) | Disagree(5) | Report wuweii 1144d ago | Spam rainslacker + 1144d ago True, but this is how GS releases their ads online. It's nice because people that wouldn't normally go to GS might see a great deal and decide to go pick it up, and nothing wrong with informing the consumer. They could do both though, as I find the text breakdowns sometimes easier to read, and occasionally GS ads can be a bit misleading, specifically their "selected titles" promotions. Edit @ Below No I believe GS website does have more of a slideshow, and you can click something and link to the game on their site. What I meant was that when you view it on their website it has the actual image of the flyer, which you can also pick up in store. This site just had a separate page for each image of the flyer, but I don't find anything wrong with getting the deals out there for the consumer to see. To each their own I guess. #1.2 (Edited 1144d ago ) | Agree(1) | Disagree(3) | Report | Reply nevin1 + 1144d ago I still get the weekly deals in my email.

I mean I can see it for showing that a game has just released, but to come in a month later at regular price is kind of silly. #2.2 Agree(3) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply gninja92 + 1144d ago RE6 and Hitman are also $40 as they are everywhere else right now. even pre-christmas. #2.2.1 Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report ginsunuva + 1143d ago No they're used, so they're normally $34.99.

Abstract: Let be a complex Banach space and a bounded linear operator on . is called meromorphic if the spectrum of is a countable set, with the only possible point of accumulation, such that all the nonzero points of are poles of . By means of the analytical core we give a spectral theory of meromorphic operators. Our results are a generalization of some results obtained by Gong and Wang (2003).
