Marmur: Powerful men behaving badly
It is wise to be skeptical about attempts to exonerate the behaviour of the rich and powerful.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
About a month before Dominique Strauss-Kahn (DSK to his friends and now to the whole world) made headlines over an alleged rape incident in New York, he told the French newspaper Libération that only three things could prevent him from becoming the next president of France: his money, his women and his Judaism.
Since his arrest, all three have been extensively scrutinized. His wealth figures prominently in the gossip columns. Until his resignation following his arrest, DSK was the chief of the International Monetary Fund. His position gave the money issue added significance.
According to Bernard-Henri Levy, one of the most celebrated and internationally known French public intellectuals, DSK's lavish spending in post-recession New York may also have been a factor. But Levy's focus is DSK's Judaism. He compares the rape case in today's New York to the infamous Dreyfus trial at the end of the 19th century in France, when a captain of Jewish descent was accused of espionage. Levy has put anti-Semitism on the agenda and thus given an added dimension to the conspiracy theory.
Yet it's neither DSK's money nor his Judaism as much as his women that dominate the current media interest. Since the accusation of rape has been made public, other reports have emerged about similar incidents. One involves a French writer who is said to have been sexually assaulted by him some eight years ago.
In the end, however, it's most unlikely that any of the above will have squashed DSK's presidential ambitions. Wealth is usually an asset, not an impediment, in politics. Politicians who have been womanizers aren't news, especially not in France. And the country has had several Jewish leaders, among them Leon Blum and Pierre Mendes France, even though anti-Semitism is said to be rampant there.
Instead, the French media have argued that DSK's presidential ambitions are being thwarted by what the Economist described as "transatlantic incomprehension." The unfortunate side effects of the U.S. legal system appear to have given the French opportunities to play on their country's strong anti-Americanism. Some even speak of DSK as a martyr to the American way of justice because it presumes a person to be guilty before proven innocent.
The reference is to allowing the publication of the alleged rapist's name but not that of his accuser. Many in France ask whether this doesn't automatically favour the underdog — in this case, an immigrant woman from West Africa — rather than follow the fundamental principle, already articulated in the Bible, "Do not favour the poor or show deference to the rich; judge your neighbour fairly."
Multiculturalism and feminism that have of late become common targets of right-wing attacks have also been blamed for giving this refugee woman an unwarranted benefit of the doubt.
Though all these factors may, indeed, have contributed to the elimination of DSK from the French presidential race, perhaps an even more accurate way of understanding reactions around the world is to see them as protests against the rich and the powerful when they use vulnerable and hapless people for their personal gain and satisfaction.
The case that now greatly overshadows the DSK story is, of course, the phone hacking scandal linked to the Murdoch media empire, ironically the ostensible champion of getting at the truth with no respect for the clout of perpetrators. The cases may be similar as they both point to a welcome and wholesome public protest on behalf of ordinary folk.
Continued scrutiny and public vigilance against all abuses of power remain, therefore, our best defence of the vulnerable. This includes a strong dose of skepticism about explanations that seek to exonerate despots.

Field Officer Reports - March 25, 2016
Butler County WCO Christopher J. Deal reports citations have been filed against individuals cutting firewood on state game lands. PennDOT recently cut trees that border the state road that runs through State Game Lands 164. When trees are cut on state game lands, they are often left on site to provide habitat and food for the area's wildlife. Personal use of the resource is not permitted.
Clarion County WCO Steven J. Ace reports seeing many gobblers strutting in fields in recent weeks. One field in southern Clarion County had over 100 turkeys in it. It's the first time in years Ace observed that many turkeys in one field.
Erie County WCO Michael J. Stutts Jr. reports several people around the district were not sure how to report suspected violations they have run into. Anyone can report a violation through the Northwest Region Office at 814-432-3187 or by calling Operation Game Thief's toll-free hotline, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year at 1-888-PGC-8001.
Erie County WCO Larry M. Smith has been getting information on increased sightings of both fishers and otters in the area. Consider watching for wildlife along small streams and watercourses for a chance to see fishers as they travel; and along larger streams and wetlands for otters.
Jefferson County WCO Roger A. Hartless reports he is investigating an incident pertaining to a raccoon discovered in a foot-hold trap more than three weeks after the close of trapping season. A passerby noticed the raccoon along a township road and near a small stream. The trap was tagged and the trap owner will be interviewed.
Mercer County WCO Donald G. Chaybin reports that although small-game seasons have been extended to run through the month of February, they just aren't long enough for some hunters. On the first Saturday in March, illegal hunting was reported in South Pymatuning Township, near the Shenango Reservoir. Two hunters, a father and young son, were contacted as they returned to their vehicle from hunting "squirrels, rabbits, and such." Fortunately, they hadn't killed any game. The dad said he didn't realize the season had ended, though he had a Hunting & Trapping Digest in the car that he could have easily checked. Charges are pending against the adult.
Venango County WCO Jason R. Amory reports that charges have been successfully adjudicated against an Ohio man for blowing up a beaver dam with explosive.
Warren County WCO David W. Donachy reports spring weather has prompted house-cleaning chores. He has prosecuted two garbage-dumping cases already.
Warren County WCO Matthew R. Savinda reports that charges are pending against two individuals who were caught abusing Hunter Access cooperator property. There were three pickup trucks, three ATVs and a camper located on a road closed to vehicular traffic. They did severe damage to the road and surrounding land. One of the young men was cited for the same violation in 2013 in the same area.
Clarion and Jefferson counties LMGS George J. Miller reports 73 bluebird nesting boxes placed and maintained on State Game Lands 63 in Clarion County. Fifteen were used by bluebirds, three by swallows, two by wrens, one by a chickadee, 26 by mice and 12 were not used. These numbers are typical, as a variety of critters will readily use these nesting structures. What is hard to wrap his head around, though, is the fact that 14 boxes were missing! It makes him wonder what happened to them.
Crawford and Erie counties LMGS Shayne A. Hoachlander reported that his first woodchuck sighting for the spring was on March 4. Woodchucks are being observed regularly and spring activity is starting to arrive in the extreme northern regions of Pennsylvania.

If you fancy beaches then you'll be spoiled for choice with the golden sands of Cornwall and Devon, the wild shorelines of Northumberland or the traditional seaside heritage of Great Yarmouth, Brighton and Blackpool. Further inland you have a variety of beautiful wide-open expanses to enjoy, with or without your four-legged friends. From the rolling limestone hills of the Yorkshire Dales to the flats of Somerset, there are walks and to suit all ages and abilities. England's history is long and varied and there are wonderful heritage attractions located all over the country, from stately homes and castles to museums, railways and festivals.

"Greenwood Grange offers the ideal holiday combination - premium quality accommodation, fine facilities all within a family-run friendly and welcoming atmosphere, and it has achieved a Green Tourism Business Scheme Gold Award"
Set at Higher Bockhampton (which is Hardy's 'Upper Mellstock'), Greenwood Grange is a secret hideaway set in its own 4 acres of peaceful grounds and landscaped gardens. All the cottages offer the very highest quality accommodation and facilities, with each cottage having its own individually styled interior using natural and recycled materials where possible. As well as offering plenty of space for strolling and relaxing, there are two en-tous-cas tennis courts, lawns for croquet and badminton, a children's play area with swings and yurt (with toys and games) and a dogs' exercise paddock, in addition to the organic vegetable garden and pick your own fruit area, with free range chickens providing eggs, to be enjoyed by all the family. There is also a magnificent Roman-style indoor heated swimming pool (complete with mural!) with full changing facilities, a large sauna and sitting area. At the entrance of Greenwood Grange is Thorncombe Wood - a wildlife sanctuary from which a nature trail leads through magnificent chestnuts, beeches and oaks, and through 70 acres of black heath, furze, birch, holly, heather and rhododendrons. This is just one of many walks directly from the door over some of the most beautiful countryside in Dorset, perfect for healthy walks for dog lovers and all the family.Those interested in the literary landscape can explore the locations of Hardy's famous novels. Steeped in history, Greenwood Grange was built by Thomas Hardy's father, whilst a short distance away is the thatched cottage where Hardy himself was born, built by his great-grandfather and little altered. At Lower Bockhampton, Hardy went to school and there is a lovely walk from there to the next village, Stinsford, where his heart is buried. All around is a wealth of glorious National Trust countryside, pretty towns and villages as well as the beautiful coastline just 6 miles away. Excellent local village restaurants and pubs can be recommended. Kingston Maurward College with animal park, gardens, conference, function and education centre is within walking distance. Dorchester (Roman Durnovaria and Hardy's 'Casterbridge') is a pleasant walk away (2 miles) and a most attractive country town, with museums of the dinosaur and the military, swimming pool, golf (good golf can also be found at Weymouth and Charminster) and has plenty of good shops, restaurants and pubs. Also of interest is Prince Charles's development at Poundbury, near Dorchester. Weymouth is 8 miles with its Georgian seafront beach - ideal for castle building! It is overlooked by an elegant 3-mile level esplanade; there is swimming from the beach, and there are lots of traditional entertainments.

Steve Jobs Talks Beatles, iPod Pricing, Competition with Newsweek
Steve Jobs Talks Beatles, iPod Pricing, Competition with Newsweek
by , 10:00 AM EDT, October 20th, 2003
Newsweek has published a short interview with Apple CEO Steve Jobs today taken during Mr. Jobs' publicity rounds from last week's introduction of iTunes 4.1 and iTunes for Windows. The interview covers such issues as iPod pricing (including an interesting exchange over Apple's policy on pricing), the lawsuit against Apple from The Beatle's record label (Apple Corps), and competition in the music download business. From the interview:
With Windows and Pepsi, you're aiming toward a mass market in downloading. But the iPod is premium-priced.
It's the No. 1 player in the world.
Still, US$300 to US$500 is an obstacle to a lot of people.
No, of course I don't think it's too costly. Fifty million homes have DVD players that cost that kind of money. For music lovers, I don't think it's a hurdle at all. There are sneakers that cost more than an iPod.
Some think you wouldn't want to sell a US$100 iPod because the profit margin would be so low.
What are you talking about? We'd love to have a $100 iPod! We just don't know how to do it right now. We're constantly trying to make cheaper iPods. We're working on the next step.
In the interview, Mr. Jobs also laments the lawsuit from the The Beatles, calling it "no big deal." Mr. Jobs says he loves The Beatles, and that he would "do anything for those guys." There's more in the full article, and we recommend it as a very interesting read.
The Mac Observer Spin:"What are you talking about?" That Steve Jobs...Always pulling his punches.
We are in the camp of those who wish Apple could or would offer a US$199 or US$249 5 GB iPod in order to penetrate the market that much farther. Clearly, Steve Jobs sees it otherwise, but a US$100 iPod? It is just not possible to offer a device with all the features of the iPod for that kind of price point. Certainly Apple could make an MP3 player without a hard drive, the contacts, calendar functions (etc.), playlists, etc. for a hundred dollars or less, but then it wouldn't be an iPod.
Lastly, we love Mr. Jobs' quick dismissal of the initial "premium-priced" comment. The iPod is the #1 selling iPod player. The market very much will correct any over-pricing issues with the iPod, and Apple will eventually be forced to lower its price. For now, however, there are clearly lots and lots of people who are willing to pay Apple's "premium price."
One can argue that Apple's Mac pricing keeps some people from buying, but you simply can't make that same argument with the iPod. Reality belies such a notion.

Nice, but expensive and needs an immediate upgrade,
Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: Apple Mac mini (Dual-Core i5,2.3GHz,2GB,500GB HD,HD Graphics (Personal Computers)
I bought this reluctantly as I'm developing apps and need a Mac to compile them on before submitting to Apple. The Mac Mini is small, almost silent and easy to set up. It comes with an adaptor to plug into the thunderbolt port to power one monitor. To add a second monitor, you can get a cheap displayport adaptor - this works perfectly for me.
My Mini came with Lion which then underwent a minor update. However, 2GB of RAM is simply not enough to get the best out of the machine - I purchased a cheap 8GB upgrade which was dead easy to install (unusually for Apple) and transformed the performance. You're never going to get as much "bang" for your "buck" when you buy Apple - you'd certainly get better performance with a PC of the same price - but if you want to go Apple (and assuming you have a keyboard, mouse and monitor of your own) this is the cheapest way to go about it.
One other minor problem - my keyboard was not recognised as a UK keyboard but a Google search and a little monkeying around saw it sorted.

Are you going to Search Engine Strategies New York, which will be held March 23-26, 2009? Of course you are. It takes less than a New York minute to make that decision.
SES New York is a not-to-be-missed event in the search industry. I've been attending each and every year since 2004. And I attended SES Boston in 2002 and 2003, before the spring conference and expo was moved to the Big Apple.
Why do I keep coming back year after year? Because search engine marketing (SEM), search engine optimization (SEO), and pay-per-click (PPC) advertising are not static fields. You can't learn the industry best practices in a week and then continue applying them without getting an annual update.
Let me share a recent conversation I had with an unnamed organization. (All I can say is that it's big, which is why it wouldn't want its name dropped in a blog post.)
This organization's website was built seven years ago. And it was "optimized" back in 2002. But nobody inside the organization could understand why the website didn't have high rankings anymore.
I diplomatically observed that the website had been optimized back when AltaVista was the leading search engine. Who knows, maybe it still ranks well in AltaVista – but that doesn't matter anymore.
And one of the industry best practices back in 2002 was changing the Meta keywords tags. Hey, I still remember those days like…they were yesterday.
So, I had to explain politely that no one in the organization had made a mistake in the spring of 2002. It's just that AltaVista dropped its support for the Meta keywords tag in July 2002, prompting Traffick.com's Andrew Goodman to declare "the end of the metatag era, full stop."
Oh, and during 2002, Google charged past AltaVista to become the leading search engine. And Google never supported the Meta keywords tag.
In other words, things change in the search industry.
A couple of years back, I tried to get a handle on the pace of change and discovered that about half of what I had learned the previous year was obsolete. That's why I had to go back to SES New York each year to discover which half.
And then the pace of change increased. Today, I estimate that about two-thirds of what I learned last year is now obsolete.
Hey, anyone still optimizing the video on their website for Google Video and Yahoo! Video?
Well, according to comScore Video Metrix, YouTube.com accounts for more than 98% of all videos viewed at Google Sites. (This means Google Video accounts for less than 2%.)
As for Yahoo! Video, while it began as an internet-wide video search engine, it added the ability to upload and share video clips in June 2006. And Yahoo! Video launched a re-designed site in February 2008 that changed the focus to Yahoo-hosted video only.
Meanwhile, comScore just reported that 97 million viewers watched 5.1 billion videos on YouTube.com during November 2008, ranking it as the top U.S. video property. MySpace.com ranked second, with 52.5 million viewers watching 371 million videos that month. Neither are video search engines.
And this is just one example of the kind of changes that can fly past you like a stealth jet under the radar.
This is what makes SES New York 2009 a not-to-be-missed event in the search industry. Even if you've attended in the past, you can't afford to miss the latest twists and turns in this ever-changing business.
So, you know you're going to Search Engine Strategies New York. It's a no brainer.
Then, here's a tip: Register by Friday, Jan.9, 2009, and you'll save up to $700 with the Early Bird Rate. That's tomorrow! Just do it.
Now that I've done you a favor, maybe you can do me a favor.
At SES New York 2009, we plan to do some more "Escalator Pitches" like the ones we did last year. An Escalator Pitch is like an elevator pitch – except the escalators at the Hilton New York move much faster than the elevators. Check out the YouTube videos below to see what I'm talking about.
Escalator Pitches at SES NY 2008
So, if you've got a story to tell that can be told in the time it takes to get from the bottom to the top of the escalator (or the other way around), just let me know. You can email me at Greg (dot) Jarboe (at) SEO-PR (dot) com.
Get it? Got it? Good!

Top 8 Acne Treatment Mistakes
For the nearly 50 million Americans affected by acne, the many available medications and treatments can be confusing and overwhelming.
It's easy to make mistakes treating acne or even make it worse, despite the best intentions.
Recommended Related to Acne
1. Keep your face clean. Whether or not you have acne, it's important to wash your face twice daily to remove impurities, dead skin cells, and extra oil from your skin's surface. Washing more often than twice daily is not necessarily better; it may do more harm than good. Use warm, not hot, water and a mild facial cleanser. Using a harsh soap (like deodorant body soap) can hurt the already inflamed skin and cause more irritation. Avoid scrubbing your skin harshly with a washcloth, exfoliating...
Read the 10 Tips for Preventing Acne article > >
Here, experts list the most common mistakes. In most cases, a dermatologist can help undo the damage.
Mistake No. 1: Not Trying an Acne Treatment Long Enough
Skin reacts slowly to treatment. Even if the acne came on fast, it still requires time to heal. That usually takes between 6 and 12 weeks, says Barbara R. Reed, MD, a dermatology professor at the University of Colorado Hospital in Denver.
April W. Armstrong, MD, MPH, is an assistant professor of dermatology at the University of California Davis Health System. She tells patients to give a product 1 month and then keep using it if they notice any improvement.
In some cases, your skin might feel a bit irritated the first couple of weeks of treatment, says Diane S. Berson, MD. She is an assistant clinical professor of dermatology at Weill Medical College of Cornell University, Ithaca.
"It's not an infection, it's an inflammation. It can even get worse before it gets better," Berson says.
Mistake No. 2: Trying Too Many Products at Once
People usually layer on products when they don't get results in the first few days of treatment, Reed says.
"What then happens is that they start trying different products, abandoning them very quickly if they do not see results in a day or two. They also add one product to another. Sometimes the products can cause irritation of the skin and add further insult to the owner," she says.
When someone self-treats their acne, they may accidentally distress their skin. This can make the acne lesions bigger, more likely to pigment, and heal with spots and scars, Berson says.
Mistake No. 3: Over-Scrubbing or Over-Cleansing the Skin
Scrubbing the skin will actually worsen acne, as it can compromise the skin's protective barrier and increase irritation, Berson says.
Instead, gently wash with a nonirritating, pH-balanced cleanser to lessen inflammation. It's also important to thoroughly rinse off the cleanser, because the residue can be irritating, she says.
"Acne is not from dirt," Reed says. "Many people tend to over-wash and over-scrub when they get acne. As one of my teachers used to say, 'If acne were from dirt, you would have it on your feet!'"

The objective of this study was to develop a method to optimize the selection and mating decisions based on genotypic information with overlapping generations by applying mate selection algorithm. In this study, differential evolution algorithm was used to optimize numbers of mating between genotypes and the optimal numbers of males and females selected from each genotype over planning horizon. This method assumed a single biallelic QTL (Q and q) and was applied to a simple situation in a herd of pigs as an example. Four dominance degrees of gene: recessive, additive, complete-dominance and over-dominance were considered. For all dominance degrees, the frequency of the favourable allele in males selected for replacement increased rapidly. In contrast, the frequency of favourable allele in females selected for replacement increased more gradually. The superiorities in cumulative discounted performance (CDP) when the initial allele frequency was 0.5 over a case when the frequency was 0.05 over the planning horizon were greatly affected by dominance degrees. The CDP superiorities ranged from 24% for an over-dominant QTL to 91% for a recessive QTL.

let's say I link my application with two static libraries. In both libraries we can find functions with same names but different functionality, what leads to symbol clash. My usual approach - edit source code of libraries and add unique prefix to name of each function. But I don't wanna do this manually anymore. Is there some tool or smart way to add custom prefix to all functions in selected source files? I work either on linux and windows with Visual Studio 2010, so I can use such tool on any of these two platforms.
Generally changing function signatures in libraries is a really bad idea. Expecially if you're working in a pre-existing code base. If somebody else is using that function, you'll break their code.
Even if it's just your own project, you probably shouldn't get in that habit.
Why don't you just fully specify the functions that clash? Instead of just letting the using Library1; using Library2; handle it, you might try explicitly specifying Library1.Function1() in ambiguious cases.
EDIT: Ah, I thought I saw C++, this answer is completely invalid without namespaces. This might help though
Edit2: objcopy seems to skirt the problem of breaking signatures for others by only prefixing a temporary copy. The link Mathias posted has a full explanation, I'll relink here for visibility
Alright, I couldn't find you a tool so I wrote you one. I wanted to learn Ruby anyway.
You should be able to run that from command line and feed it all your source files as options. It'll take all the method names declared at the top of your file, and go through the source code prefixing "prefix" to them.
You can change prefix in the script if you like, or figure out how to feed it options as well as filenames.
For example, if you save it in a ruby file called "prefixer.rb" you'll be able to call it from command line like this:
Or possibly
Hope that does it for you, let me know if you use it.

'I am 100% pro life. I believe abortion is taking the life of an innocent human being.

Published in Politics & Policy
LOUISVILLE, KY (Catholic Online) - The Major news sources have all called the Republican
Primary in Kentucky and Rand Paul, the son of Ron Paul, has soundly defeated Trey Grayson for the Republic Party nomination for a seat in the US Senate. By the time the votes are all counted it could be a near landslide for the first time Senatorial candidate. Dr. Paul is a family man who has been married to his wife Kelley for 19 years. They have three sons. He is a doctor, and not a politician. That is part of the appeal he had for the voters of Kentucky. There will be pundits parsing the meaning of this election all evening. They will discuss the meaning of this strong showing. Rand Paul certainly was not the preferred candidate of the Republican Party establishment. He had the backing of the broad coalition being called the "Tea Party" movement. He has never run for public office. He all but eschewed the traditional fundraising model, opting instead to utilize the internet in the manner that his father used the internet in his outsider bid for the Presidency. While the pundit class pontificates, those who recognize that the foundation of all human rights is the fundamental Right to life should take heart from Rand Paul's position in defense of the dignity of every human life from conception to natural death. Here are his own words: "I am 100% pro life. I believe abortion is taking the life of an innocent human being.
I believe life begins at conception and it is the duty of our government to protect this life.
I will always vote for any and all legislation that would end abortion or lead us in the direction of ending abortion. "I believe in a Human Life Amendment and a Life at Conception Act as federal solutions to the abortion issue. I also believe that while we are working toward this goal, there are many other things we can accomplish in the near term. "It is unconscionable that government would facilitate the taking of innocent life. I strongly oppose any federal funding for abortion and will stop the flow of tax dollars to groups like Planned Parenthood, who perform or advocate abortions. "In addition, I believe we may be able to save millions of lives in the near future by allowing states to pass their own anti-abortion laws. If states were able to do so, I sincerely believe many -- including Kentucky -- would do so tomorrow, saving hundreds of thousands of lives. "Before 1973, abortion was illegal in most states. Since Roe v. Wade, over 50 million children have died in abortion procedures. "I would strongly support legislation restricting federal courts from hearing cases like Roe v. Wade. Such legislation would only require a majority vote, making it more likely to pass than a pro-life constitutional amendment. "I would support legislation, a Sanctity of Life Amendment, establishing the principle that life begins at conception. This legislation would define life at conception in law, as a scientific statement." We encourage our global readers to see where the nominee stands on other issues by going here. http://www.randpaul2010.com/issues/

"Bringing in a Strong Female Character™ isn't actually a feminist statement, or an inclusionary statement, or even a basic equality statement, if the character doesn't have any reason to be in the story except to let filmmakers point at her on the poster and say "See?

I don't think everything worked this year, but I mean it as a compliment."
"'Mad Men': It's All About Family Values." For The Millions, Sonya Chung writes about a recurring, perhaps central notion in Matthew Weiner's historical drama. Related: "Mad Men"'s Sprawl Problem," by Andrew DeYoung of The Stake.
"It seems at times implausible that these characters go about their days in such close proximity, pitching and collaborating and strategizing around conference tables, smirking and drinking scotch with their feet up. How is it that these subtexts matter so much and at the same time not at all? Is this how life is really lived? I would say, No, not really. In our world, one wouldn't work side by side, year after year, with so much water under the bridge; the bridge would have flooded and collapsed long ago. Again, these are the behaviors of family, not co-workers. "
"The Evolution of the Mental Hospital in Music Videos, From Björk and 'N Sync to JJ." Self-explanatory. By Moze Halperin, for Flavorwire.
"Sometimes the psych ward appears as a heavy-handed shout-out to a song's lyrics, sometimes as hyperbole for a song's emotional tone, and sometimes, crazily, for reasons of actual social importance. Regardless of the meaning, though, the recurrence of the stylized mental hospital in music videos proves that yellow wallpaper is the not-so-new black."

What is the 'Aroon Indicator'
The Aroon indicator is a technical indicator used for identifying trends in an underlying security and the likelihood that the trends will reverse. It is made up of two lines: one line is called "Aroon up", which measures the strength of the uptrend, and the other line is called "Aroon down", which measures the downtrend. The indicator reports the time it is taking for the price to reach, from a starting point, the highest and lowest points over a given time period, each reported as a percentage of total time.
BREAKING DOWN 'Aroon Indicator'
The Aroon indicator was developed by Tushar Chande in 1995. Both the Aroon up and the Aroon down fluctuate between zero and 100, with values close to 100 indicating a strong trend, and zero indicating a weak trend. The lower the Aroon up, the weaker the uptrend and the stronger the downtrend, and vice versa. The main assumption underlying this indicator is that a stock's price will close at record highs in an uptrend, and record lows in a downtrend.
This indicator is very similar to the directional movement index (DMI) that was developed by Welles Wilder, which is also a very popular indicator used to measure the strength of a given trend.

Candy Hill - Juicy
Posted 8 years ago
Tags: Candy Hill , Club
Prettyboy & Bradd
TBA Debut Album
Hailing straight from Los Angeles, Candy Hill is a female-trio composed of rappers OC and LV, and singer Casha. Their first single, Juicy, (yet another demonstration of girls that have something which can get even the rawest hood player sprung) features a sound that has been heard very little since TLC last recording. Prettyboy & Bradd's Timbaland-esque 808's are complemented perfectly by LV's sassy-sounding raps (reminiscent of an old Lil' Kim), OC's rapid-fire-flow (a Twista/Bone Thugs influence is obvious here), and Casha's smooth, funky vocals (sounding just like Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes). Candy Hill mixes old-school style and new-school appeal; look for them to become one of the bigger girl groups in the music business.

FREDERICK, MD. (JUNE 15, 2014) - The Myrtle Beach Pelicans, Class A-Advanced affiliate of the Texas Rangers, lost the finale of the first half to the Frederick Keys 6-1 on Sunday afternoon at Harry Grove Stadium. Jorge Alfaro provided the offense with a solo home run, and the Pelicans lost three games in a row for the first time since Opening Weekend. At 44-24, the Pelicans had the fewest losses in a half in team history and the best winning percentage. They finished one win shy of tying the franchise mark for wins in a half.
Up 2-1 in the fifth inning, Frederick (32-35) launched four home runs in three innings to break the game open and stay ahead for good. Michael Burgess with a solo shot with two outs in the fifth off of Pelicans reliever Jason Knapp.
Jose Leclerc allowed three long balls in 1 1/3 innings. He had only allowed one home run all season but surrendered back-to-back shots to Jason Esposito and Brenden Webb in the sixth. Sammie Star added another run on a solo home run to left in the left to push the lead to 6-1.
Burgess finished a triple shy of the cycle and collected three RBI.
The sole Pelicans run came on Alfaro's eighth home run of the season. Down 2-0 in the fourth, he launched a home run over the left field wall off of Keys starter Parker Bridwell. It was only the second hit off of the Frederick right-hander and ended a stretch of ten batters in a row set down.
Myrtle Beach (44-24) loaded the bases in the sixth with no outs and had two on with one out in the eighth but failed to score. The Pelicans went 0-for-4 with runners in scoring position and left six men on base.
Leclerc and fellow reliever Abel De Los Santos were thrown out after hitting batters in the seventh and eighth innings. Manager Joe Mikulik was also tossed.
For the first time this season, the Pelicans used six pitchers in a game. Jose Monegro ran his scoreless streak to 13 innings.
Gene Escat and Ashur Tolliver finished the final third of the ballgame for Frederick in relief of Bridwell.
In his final start of the half, Andrew Faulkner allowed a run on two hits and three walks in two innings.
Bridwell (4-6) picked up the win, while Faulkner (4-1) took the loss-his first of the season. He was the only qualifying Carolina League pitcher without a loss prior to Sunday.
Alfaro, Preston Beck, Alexander Claudio, Faulkner, and Chris Garia head to Wilmington for the California League / Carolina League All-Star Game on Tuesday at Frawley Stadium.
The Pelicans return to action on Thursday at 7:05 p.m. at TicketReturn.com Field at Pelicans Ballpark, hosting the Wilmington Blue Rocks for three games. The game can be heard live on WRNN AM 1450 ESPN Myrtle Beach, on the TuneIn Radio App, and via the MiLB First Pitch App, beginning with the Hampton Inn Pregame Show at 6:45 p.m.
The quick three-game homestand features an appearance by Mountain Man, from A&E's Duck Dynasty, on Saturday June 21, presented by WMBF News.
Season Seats, Mini Plans, Flex Books, and single game tickets are available to see the Pelicans in 2014. For more information on tickets, please call (843) 918-6002, e-mail email@example.com, visit www.MyrtleBeachPelicans.com, or visit the Pelicans box office, which is open Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
