The Pleasures of Popcorn
Summer Movies Week at Slate.
Welcome to Slate'sSummer Movies Week. Once again, we enter the multiplex with hope in our hearts, searching for all that is good and loud and obvious in American cinema. Failing that, we will enjoy the free air-conditioning. Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest may be poised to have the biggest opening in the history of movies, but we decided to lavish attention on a quiet little picture called Superman Returns. Tuesday night, Dana Stevens will kick things off by detailing why the new actor playing Superman doesn't quite fill the tights, while, later in the week, Troy Patterson will confess his enduring love for gal reporter Lois Lane. In keeping with the obsessive mood, we also asked Spike Lee, Peter Farrelly, Kathleen Kennedy, and other writers and directors what movie they've watched the most times. All of the answers are delightful, and, incredibly, there's nary a mention of a certain sextet with light sabers.
Not that we ignored sex. Christopher Kelly defends provocateur Larry Clark as the only filmmaker worthy of the exhibitionist MySpace generation. And Dave Kehr speaks for the Viagra set with a ringing defense of old directors. Bryan Curtis casts a cold eye the American Film Institute's recent list of the 100 most inspirational movies, which includes such classics as The Karate Kid. Also, Tim Wu will reveal the ultimate Chinese pirate scheme: a plan to build their own version of Hollywood, complete with back lots and Botoxed executives. As your fortune cookie might say, we live in interesting times. Enjoy the issue, and see you in the front row.

An update on the problem with the 'My posts' page: the problem has been fixed on our development server. The fix will be published to the live site during our next 'site build', which is likely to be next week. I'm sorry that the fix can't go live this week, but do please bear with us a little longer. The other issues, including the spellchecker and the notification emails, are logged and will be dealt with as quickly as possible.
Daniel HaynesEditor, gardenersworld.com
The issue with the spellchecker has been added to the job list. Apologies for the continued delay with fixing these problems. Please bear with us - the dev team will sort things out as soon as they can.
Hello again everyone,
The 'view most recent posts' function is now working again. Do of course let me know if you have any further problems with it.
I'm afraid the notification facility isn't back up and running yet, but it will be fixed as soon as possible.
In the meantime, I hope you all have a great Easter, and that the weather will be kind enough to allow you some time in the garden...
Apologies for the delay in posting a response. We've had a number of technical problems with the site this week, which the developers are working through. A number of changes were implemented last week, which have had unforseen knock-on effects elsewhere around the site.
I quite agree with the comments about the small text in the input box, and will request that this be changed.
I'm sorry for the delay in fixing the report emails and the problem with the 'View most recent posts' setting. Unfortunately I can't promise this will be fixed in time for the bank holiday weekend, but I've checked on progress with this and will update you if I hear back today.
I appreciate how frustrating these technical problems are, but please be assured that they will be dealt with as quickly as possible. We share a technical team with a number of other sites, all of which have development job lists which need to be worked through.
Thank you for bearing with us.
Apologies to any of you who missed the cosmos seeds in the subscriber edition of the magazine.
If your cosmos seeds are missing, the subscriber customer service team will send you a replacement packet in the next few days. Please call 020 7150 5700 and press option 3, or if you prefer, email email@example.com with your name and full address details. Daniel HaynesEditor, gardenersworld.com

Apologies for this. I've asked our technical team to come up with a solution to this. It is possible to choose a non-UK country of residence during the registration process, so it's this that should display. I'll post an update once I know more.
Apologies for this rather strange problem...
It has been logged with the tech team, and it will be sorted as soon as possible!

The most buzzed-about launch of the fall season, The Social Network met (but did not exceed) expectations with a $23-million start, while hard-R vampire thriller Let Me In proved to be a classic tweener: too bloody violent for upscale smart-house crowds and too European for mainstream gore-hounds.

Many rumors about the presence of the latest iPhone that was claimed as "cheap iphone". From the use of the body that made of plastic, to form shown in some pictures. The latest issue written by All Things Digital (ATD) about the product that will be launched on September 10 because the day was known that Apple will launch the iconic device.
ATD reporter Ina Fried added on Saturday, the event on 10 September is not a launching of Mac OS X aka Maverick, and also there are no indication that Apple TV or smartwatch project will be launched soon.
Slashgear also previously released a photo of a Vietnamese site Tinh te that was alleged dummy models for the upcoming iPhone 5S and reportedly also cheap iPhone 5C.
As expected before, the iPhone 5S looks identical to the iPhone 5 only a few minor differences. The first issue previously rumored that iPhone 5S will use dual-LED flash on the back. Where every iPhone that has a flash light on the back so far only using one light, this device aims to raise abillity with bright light.

UF cuts $47 million, slashes 430 positions
Published: Monday, May 5, 2008 at 3:39 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, May 5, 2008 at 3:39 p.m.
The University of Florida will cut its budget by $47 million this year,
resulting in the elimination of 430 faculty and staff positions, UF
President Bernie Machen announced Monday.
In addition to layoffs and program cuts, UF will begin reducing its
enrollment by 1,000 students each year over the course of four years.
Of the 430 positions being eliminated, 290 are now vacant. About 20
faculty and 118 staff members will be laid off.
The newly announced cuts come on top of a $22 million state funding
reduction UF took in October, meaning the university's state budget will be
$69 million less than it was a year ago.
In a plan that required all colleges and units to reduce spending by 6
percent, only UF's security programs and libraries were spared, according
to university officials.
Cuts came across the campus, but UF's agricultural programs took the
biggest dollar blow with $9.5 million in cuts, including the loss of 14
faculty and 96 staff positions.
Several colleges and units will take reductions of more than $1 million:
Agriculture and Natural Resources (Institute of Food and Agricultural
Sciences or IFAS): $9.5M
College of Veterinary Medicine: $1.55M
College of Medicine: $2.64M
College of Dentistry: $1.1M
College of Liberal Arts & Sciences: $5.97M
Warrington College of Business: $1.47M
College of Engineering: $3.6M
Levin College of Law: $1.24M
Provost's Office: $1.66M
Vice President for Development: $1.56M
Vice President for Student Affairs: $1.92M
Vice President for Business Affairs: $3.3M

L-7, ul. Katowicka 10, Chorzów, www.stadionslaski.pl
Following the firestorm of destruction unleashed by WWII, post-war Poland resembled a giant brickyard as the nation set about rebuilding itself. 1950 saw the decision undertaken to build the Silesia Stadium (Stadion Śląski) in Chorzów as part of the Park of Culture & Recreation, and Julian Brzuchowski got the job of designing the social realist monstrosity. Construction began in 1951 with many keen patriots volunteering to work on the project for free. Despite this, it still took a government outlay of 1.5 million złoty – a staggering amount at the time – to complete it.
With an official capacity of 87,000, crowds regularly exceeded that figure thanks to plenty of standing room and in 1963 a record 120,000 squeezed in to watch visiting FK Austria Wien take on Górnik Zabrze. In 1993 Stadion Śląski became the official home of the Polish national team, thanks to the sorry state of the national stadium in Warsaw. Although for safety reasons capacity was reduced to 47,246, this remained the largest stadium in Poland, hosting speedway championships and other events, including massive concerts by bands like U2, ACDC, Iron Maiden and The Rolling Stones.
Following an illustrious history, the stadium's importance has recently been eroded by the new spate of venues built for the Euro 2012 football tournament. In spite of unveiling plans to modernize Silesian Stadium and increase capacity to 55,000, Chorzów didn't make the shortlist of host cities for Euro 2012, losing out to Gdańsk, Warsaw, Poznań and Wrocław. Since 2009, the stadium has been undergoing the said modernisation which includes the construction of a 43,000 square metre roof, plus new stands, lighting, video screens and an improved sound system. Other facilities will include a hotel, restaurant, tennis courts, food vendors and VIP boxes, and the speedway track is being replaced with a traditional track that will allow Chorzów to host international track and field events. Though originally planned to be completed by autumn 2011 for 415 million złoty, best estimates are that work will not be finished before 2014 for under 500 million złoty, at which point local side Ruch Chorzów looks poised to make it their home stadium.

Decorating Tip: Keep your color palette simple. Too many colors can be distracting and make your room feel smaller. "Here, it's just black, white, and green," says Jill. Uncomplicated and effective.
Let in the sunlight. Jill says the more natural light the better and suggests using Roman shades instead of curtains. They offer privacy when you need it but don't detract from your outside surroundings.

Bookings for the quarter were $221.8 million, up 16% from Q1 of 2011 and up 9% from Q4's net order total. Our recent acquisitions contributed less than 3% of bookings. Don will discuss the makeup of orders in our markets in a moment. Changes in currency rates had a small impact in our orders in totals and backlog this quarter. At the end of the latest quarter, the euro was $1.33 compared to $1.29 at the end of Q4. The backlog at the end of the quarter was $434.9 million and represents about 6 months of revenue at our current run rate.Moving to slide four, first quarter revenue was up 10.5% from a year ago and 2% from the fourth quarter. Compared with a year ago, less than 2% of our revenue growth came from acquisitions offset in part by less than a 1% reduction due to changes in foreign exchange rates. Revenue growth was driven by Electronics segment, which was up 27% from last year's first quarter and 42% from the fourth quarter of 2011 and made up 36% of the total.

Five Tips To Increase Your Chances Of Getting A Small Business Bank Loan
WASHINGTON, March 25, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- In honor of National Mom and Pop Business Owners Day on March 29, 2013, the American Bankers Association releases the following tips to help small business owners best position themselves to obtain small business bank loans. "Five Tips to Increase Your Chances of Getting a Small Business Bank Loan," the first in a series of tips to be released throughout the year, provides a rare glimpse into how bankers think and is intended to help small business owners develop a mutually beneficial relationship with a bank, prepare to get loans and evaluate offers.1) Get to know bankers at several financial institutions in your community. Before requesting a loan, find out which financial institutions in your market make loans to firms like yours. Not all banks specialize in business loans. Some specialize in lending only to firms in certain industries. Others lend only to those in certain stages of the business life cycle (no startups, for example). Work with bankers who understand your industry and find out how the current financial crisis has affected credit availability in your community. Not all banks have been equally affected by today's financial crisis. Another reason to deal with banks experienced in your industry relates to the financial advice they can offer. Because these bankers work with firms facing the same industry-related problems that may challenge you, they're in a better position to provide helpful advice and financial products tailored to your firm's needs. Many times the advice a banker gives is far more important than the product or service they sell. Seek a banker who can give financial advice that will help you survive and thrive in today's economy. In turn, you should reward that banker with your business and your loyalty.

This year Japan marks the 50th anniversary of the official development assistance program it launched after getting out of the postwar economic chaos. The Foreign Ministry's 2004 white paper on ODA boasts that Japan, now one of the world's largest ODA providers, has made major contributions to the economic development and the improvement of welfare in developing countries.
It says Japanese ODA has contributed to the phenomenal economic expansion of East Asian countries through the improvement of infrastructure and development of human resources.
In 2003, however, Japan's actual ODA spending posted the fourth year-on-year decline. In 2001, Japan was replaced by the United States as the top ODA provider. In the coming years, it could be overtaken by France, Germany and Italy in the ODA rankings.
The white paper notes that the general account budget for ODA in 2004 fell 30 percent from 1997, while the defense budget decreased 1 percent and the public-works budget declined 9 percent.
The ODA cutback has reflected Japan's huge budget deficit, one of the largest among industrial countries. With the outlook bleak for eliminating the deficit, the government budget inevitably places more importance on domestic requirements than on foreign needs.
The big question is how to restructure ODA in response to changing economic situations at home and abroad.
First, Japanese ODA should now be focused on Africa and other non-Asian regions. Asia, which has received 50 to 60 percent of the aid, has achieved fast economic growth.
The 10-member Association of Southeast Asian Nations, which seeks to conclude a free-trade agreement with Japan, is moving to expand trade and reduce its dependence on ODA in hopes of achieving economic independence.
Although ASEAN is urging Japan to lift import tariffs on rice, sugar, bananas and other farm produce, Japan's farm ministry resists doing so to protect domestic farmers. There are fears that Japan could use ODA to placate ASEAN countries' demand to lift tariffs.
The Foreign Ministry should permit corporate entities to acquire farmland and take other measures to expedite the restructuring of agriculture and the liberalization of farm-produce imports.
Second, Japan should strictly observe the principles of its ODA charter by suspending or reducing aid to countries that contravene them. China clearly flouts the principles as it is increasing military expenditures and has produced weapons of mass destruction and missiles.
China's ongoing persecution of followers of Falun Gong, a spiritual practice combining exercises and meditation, contravenes another charter principle, which calls for protection of basic human rights and freedoms.
In recent years, Japanese ODA to China has been decreasing amid mounting public criticism, but in actual spending for 2003, China still was the second-largest recipient after Indonesia. China has the world's second-largest foreign-currency reserves after Japan, and provides ODA to other developing countries. China should decline further ODA.
Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi's attitude toward China is perplexing. He has angered Beijing by continuing his visits to Yasukuni Shrine, which honors Japan's war dead (including class-A war criminals). Meanwhile, anti-Japanese sentiment is strong among the Chinese, as evidenced by the reaction of Chinese spectators to Japan's national team at an Asian Cup soccer game in August.
China reacted coolly when Koizumi announced Japan's intent to seek permanent membership on the U.N. Security Council last month. The situation indicates that Japanese ODA to China has become a complete waste.
The ODA charter lists Central Asia as one of the important target regions for assisting democratization programs and market reforms. This is fine except for the large amount of aid being given to Kazakstan, the region's richest country with oil, nonferrous metals and other resources.
The Kazak ambassador to Japan, with whom I met recently, said the country needs more direct investment from the Japanese private sector than yen-based loans from the government. I doubt whether Japanese aid is based on careful studies of the target region.
Third, the white paper says the government has been enhancing dialogue and cooperation with, and increasing aid to, nongovernmental organizations, but the efforts leave much to be desired. In 2002, subsidies to NGOs accounted for only 1.5 percent of Japanese ODA, far below 12.9 percent for the Netherlands, 12.1 percent for Ireland and 8.2 percent for Canada.
Michiya Kumaoka, president of the Japan International Volunteer Center, says European governments and NGOs tend to work as partners, but in Japan, the government totally controls ODA. NGOs in Japan are only subcontractors for the Foreign Ministry. In his opinion, the ministry should attach more importance to ODA-based projects worked out by NGOs.
The Foreign Ministry should make better use of NGOs to make up for the shortage of ODA staff, which is much smaller than in other countries, and to improve aid plans from citizens' viewpoints.
I am seriously concerned about the Japanese government's tendency to use huge amounts of tax money as reconstruction aid for Afghanistan and Iraq after blindly supporting the U.S.-led war on terror. This gives the impression that Japan is serving U.S. foreign policy, thus raising doubts about the integrity and humanitarian nature of Japanese aid and causing erosion in the trust of Japanese NGOs. More caution is needed concerning Japan's aid policy.

Ivan Rodriguez is back in Texas again. This time, the 14-time All-Star catcher is retiring.
Rodriguez, who briefly returned to the Rangers three years ago, formally announced his retirement Monday at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington. It came nearly 21 years after the fan favorite known as Pudge made his major league debut as a 19-year-old with the Rangers.
Rodriguez played the first 12 of his 21 seasons with Texas. He played for five other teams and returned to Texas for the final few weeks of the 2009 season.
Rodriguez was part of the Rangers' first three AL West titles in a four-year span in the late 1990s. He later appeared in two World Series, with the champion Florida Marlins in 2003 and Detroit in 2006.

No one taught me how to practice. Just do it, they said, which is how I honed my amazing ability to daydream while moving my fingers. I can play a Bach sonata and keep a running commentary in my head: what's for dinner? I must send flowers to Aunt Margie (ooops! skipped a note!) Are my favorite jeans in the dryer? Get cat food!
Privately-funded public art brightened small towns and markets this summer. My thanks to Classical 91.5 listener Al Kopec, who sent in pictures from the Windmill Farm and Craft Market between Dundee and Penn Yan, where a large mural appeared on one of the buildings.
I whooshed past a field of goldenrod today. A blur of yellow. The summer itself feels like a blur, a grainy Polaroid with indistinct lines and a few dabs of color.
In July I spent four days at Glimmerglass Opera (read my review of the season here). It's a hobbit-y part of country, a slightly tamer, more cultivated hollow of the Finger Lakes. The hills cradle you close, and the lake echoes the blue stillness of the skies. I've been going to Glimmerglass for several years, and this time I was thrilled to discover (in addition to a newly-opened coffee shop across the road from the Young Artists' headquarters) a small nature preserve behind the Alice Busch Opera Theater. A trail leads to a raised boardwalk through the marsh where green dragonflies, blue herons, and flying squirrels dart through the trees. Enchanting.
There was another surprise. I stayed in a small motel on Lake Otsego. Across the street sat a large, grand white inn with a huge, wrap-around porch and a "For Sale" sign sticking out of the weeds. Sumac trees jutted out of the garden beds. The roof was caving in. The paint, peeling. I couldn't resist, so I walked across the road, climbed up crumbling concrete stairs and past the yawning cellar door onto the porch. It was as quiet as an Egyptian tomb. I peered into one of the front windows, into a vast room filled with light. At first, I thought it was totally empty; no pictures on the wall, no furniture, no stuff. Then my eyes fell on a metal cage in the middle of the room and a very-much-alive black and white rabbit looking back at me, calmly munching pellets. I loved that rabbit.
Sometimes the best things happen when you peer past the facade. Part the curtain and look.
Summer gives you the chance to enjoy music in unusual settings. Lakes. Woods. Corn fields. Festivals are popping up all over the region. Last week I had the privilege of seeing four operas at Glimmerglass Opera in Cooperstown and interviewing the incoming director, Francesca Zambello.
Road sign before Glimmerglass It's percussive, graceful, and brimming with charm.
My thanks to every listener who's e-mailed rad...@wxxi.org about the morning mystery pieces on Classical 91.5. It's a delight to explore old and new repertoire, and I'm excited that so many music lovers are getting up a little early to guess the name of the mystery work at 6:40 a.m. (One man told me he
Perceptions change. You wouldn't have heard much Philip Glass on WXXI-FM a few decades ago. Now his minimalist, relentless, mathmematical works spin out on a regular basis. Several listeners correctly identified the mystery piece on Classical 91.5 Thursday as Glass' "Company." Writer Alex Ross argues that his style is the first original Ameri

Of course people can study languages on their own, just by being in close contact with the people whose language you want to learn.
And the ex I always keep moaning about speaks 3 or 4 languages, and she never learned them in school, but apparently she picks it up very easily.
The reason I said Old English must have been very close if not almost similar to ancient Frisian (Old Frisian is from the 12th century) is because of this:
Discovering the Dutch: On Culture and Society of the Netherlands - Emmeline Besamusca, Jaap Verheul
From page 89:
The absence of a serious language barrier between Anglo-Saxons, Frisians and Saxons, who were able to understand one another without too many problems, allowed the use of insular texts such as these in the conversion of Germanic-speaking pagans on the continent.
This is from a forum (by a "Espadachin"):
As for historicity, Frisian and English used to be mutually intelligible. There are stories of English missionaries (Sts. Boniface and Willibrord, notably) coming to Frisia in the 7th and 8th centuries, and they would be understood perfectly well by the people there. English (or better, Anglo-Saxon) was originally from Oost-Friesland and south Danmark anyways.
Reply by "Frank06":
I am inclined to believe you, but this is very hard to verify, any which way. The first (extensive) texts in Frisian date only from the 13th century (Old(!) Frisian).
So we don't have any contemporary material that can be used to compare Old-English (Anglo-Saxon, if you want) and, well, Pre-Old-Frisian from the 7th or 8th century.
Reply by Espadachin:
Admittedly there aren't texts to compare for Old Frisian/Anglo-Saxon, I'm just going off of what was in Bede's History of the English Church (written 8th century) as well as Letters of St. Boniface. There was another story in the Life of Wilfred, an English saint from Northumbria, where he was shipwrecked and landed on the Frisian coast. It said that he had no problem understanding the Frisian, as the language was very close.
I also recall a story about St. Boniface (also originally an Anglo-Saxon) speaking with Frisian pirates near Dokkum (in Fryslan), shortly before they cut his head off.
So I reasoned that if Old English was very similar to pre-Old Frisian, why is the language used in Frisian law texts from many ages later so different, and why is the language used in the OLB so similar to these later Frisian texts?
The OLB language should have been close(r ) to Old English.

The collection contains a stratified 1-percent sample of households, with separate records for each household, for each "sample line" respondent, and for each person in the household. These records were encoded from microfilm copies of original handwritten enumeration schedules from the 1940 Census of Population. Geographic identification of the location of the sampled households includes Census regions and divisions, states (except Alaska and Hawaii), standard metropolitan areas (SMAs), and state economic areas (SEAs). Accompanying the data collection is a codebook that includes an abstract, descriptions of sample design, processing procedures and file structure, a data dictionary (record layout), category code lists, and a glossary. Also included is a procedural history of the 1940 Census. Each of the 20 subsamples contains three record types: household, sample line, and person. Household variables describe the location and condition of the household. The sample line records contain variables describing demographic characteristics such as nativity, marital status, number of children, veteran status, wage deductions for Social Security, and occupation. Person records also contain variables describing demographic characteristics including nativity, marital status, family membership, education, employment status, income, and occupation.

OU finished No. 6 in final polls, OSU No. 17
NORMAN - After beating Alabama in the Sugar Bowl, Oklahoma finished No. 6 in both The Associated Press and USA Today Coaches' polls, released Tuesday after the BCS National Championship Game.
For the Sooners, it is their highest finish since coming in at No. 6 following the 2010 season and the ninth time in Bob Stoops' 15 seasons that OU has finished in the top 10.
The top six of both polls look the same, with Florida State receiving every possible first-place vote in both polls, followed by Auburn, Michigan State, South Carolina, Missouri and the Sooners.
Alabama is No. 7 in the AP poll, followed by Clemson. That order is reversed in the coaches' poll.
Oklahoma State, which fell to Missouri in the Cotton Bowl, is No. 17 in both polls.
The Cowboys open next season against Florida State at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
Baylor is the only other Big 12 team to finish in the Top 25, coming in at No. 13 in both polls.
Kansas State and Texas Tech received votes.
Oklahoma wound up going 3-1 against teams that finished ranked in the final polls, beating Alabama, Oklahoma State and Notre Dame (No. 20 AP, No. 24 coaches') and losing to Baylor.
Oklahoma State was 1-2, beating Baylor and losing to Missouri and the Sooners.

SMS Backup + automatically backup/restore SMS, MMS and call log entries and sync it with Gmail/Google Calendar. You can easily (just one tap) restore your data from there to your phone. In order to avoid incompatibilities you need to enable IMAP in Gmail and set the correct time/zone, from preferences. You have to accept the permissions that the app asks for in Gmail and start to enjoy the app.
You can schedule daily backups not to lose a single SMS in case your device gets lost or robbed. You can also set notifications when backup is done. This way you will be always aware about your scheduled backups. The layout is quite simple, listed format, black background. The main flaw of this app is that there are lots of backup apps that backup/restore apps, data (including SMS, MMS, call logs and many other features). For this reason, an app that only backup a little part of your data, sins by being simple.
This app might not work properly if you app2SD SMS Backup+, so keep it in your internal storage.
SMS Backup+ has been developed by Jan Berkel, an emerging developer who's reaching great success thanks to this simple but useful app. If you are worried about security and you don't care the scenery, check this out. It will do the job and you won't even realize. Recommendable.

Clinical Factors That Predict Cognitive Function in Patients with Major Depression
Elgamal, Safa, Denburg, Susan, Marriott, Michael, MacQueen, Glenda, Canadian Journal of Psychiatry
Objectives: To compare the performance of depressed patients to healthy control subjects on discrete cognitive domains derived from factor analysis and to examine the factors that may influence the performance of depressed patients on cognitive domains in a large sample.
Methods: We compared the cognitive performance of 149 patients with major depression to 104 healthy control subjects using multivariate ANCOVA. We used principal component factor analysis to group the cognitive variables into cognitive domains. Finally, we conducted regression analysis to examine the contribution of predictor factors to the cognitive domains that were impaired in the depressed group.
Results: Verbal memory and speed of processing were impaired in depressed patients, compared with healthy control subjects. Patient IQ, duration of depressive illness, and number of hospitalizations significantly contributed to the performance of patients on verbal memory and speed of processing. The severity of mood symptoms did not correlate with performance on any cognitive domain.
Conclusions: Understanding the factors that predict cognitive performance of patients with depression may provide an insight into the processes by which depression leads to cognitive dysfunction. Our study showed that premorbid IQ and factors related to burden of illness are strong independent predictors of cognitive dysfunction in patients with major depression.
Can J Psychiatry. 2010;55(10):653-661.
Clinical Implications
* The magnitude of cognitive deficit in depression is attributable both to patient characteristics and to illness factors.
* Mood state is not associated with performance on cognitive tasks in depressed patients.
* Because depression is not a homogenous disorder, the profile of cognitive Impairment is variable among patient populations.
* This cross-sectional study did not allow examining the magnitude of change in cognitive function over time.
* We could not control for medications in a systematic manner because many chronic patients had exposure to multiple medications.
* This study included patients with a relatively low intensity of mood symptoms and limited variability, which may affect the generalizability of results.
Key Words: major depression, mood disorder, cognitive dysfunction, verbal memory impairment, speed of processing, factor analysis

MDD is associated with a range of cognitive deficits.

Some, ' but not all, studies' report that age is negatively associated with verbal memory and executive function.

The LOW3 House Brings Affordable Sustainability to the Solar Decathlon

The LOW3 combines passive solar architecture with bioclimatic optimization to minimize the house's energy demand. The team chose to use building integrated solar panels [2] (BIPVs) on the roof and sides of the envelope and solar thermal systems throughout the home to supply the inhabitants with power. In addition to the green technology [3] used in the home, the materials that compose it are sustainable and local.
In order to make the LOW3 as versatile as possible, the team used modular building systems [4] in the design, making it easy to customize and expand when the needs of its occupants change.

Zen says: be empty. Look without any idea. Look into the nature of things but with no idea, with no prejudice, with no presupposition.Osho
The mystical trend of our time, which shows itself particularly in the rampant growth of the so-called Theosophy and Spiritualism, is for me no more than a symptom of weakness and confusion. Since our inner experiences consist of reproductions, and combinations of sensory impressions, the concept of a soul without a body seem to me to be empty and devoid of meaning.Albert Einstein
I made a mental note to watch which bottle became empty soonest, sometimes a more telling evaluation system than any other.Gerald Asher
There is no God, no universe, no human race, no earthly life, no heaven, no hell. It is all a Dream, a grotesque and foolish dream. Nothing exists but you. And You are but a Thought a vagrant Thought, a useless Thought, a homeless Thought, wandering forlorn among the empty eternities.Samuel Langhorne Clemens
Smoking dope and hanging up Che's picture is no more a commitment than drinking milk and collecting postage stamps. A revolution in consciousness is an empty high without a revolution in the distribution of power. We are not interested in the greening of Amerika except for the grass that will cover its grave.Abbie Hoffman
Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless - like water. Now you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup, you put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle, you put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friendBruce Lee
I can spot empty flattery and know exactly where I stand. In the end it's really only my own approval or disapproval that means anything.Agnetha Faltskog
I wondered whether the scientific modern brain could not get to the stage of realising that Space is not an empty homogeneous medium, but full of intricate differences, intelligible and real, though not with our common reality.John Buchan, 1st Baron Tweedsmuir
Time is the most precious gift in our possession, for it is the most irrevocable. This is what makes it so disturbing to look back upon the time which we have lost. Time lost is time when we have not lived a full human life, time unenriched by experience, creative endeavor, enjoyment, and suffering. Time lost is time not filled, time left empty.Dietrich Bonhoeffer
To-morrow it seem Like the empty words of a dream Remembered on waking.Robert Seymour Bridges
Let's dance put on your red shoes and dance the blues. Let's dance to the song they're playin' on the radio. Let's sway while colour lights up your face. Let's swa , sway through the crowd to an empty space.David Robert Jones
Do not all charms fly at the mere touch of cold philosophy? There was an awful rainbow once in heaven: we know her woof, her texture; she is given in the dull catalogue of common things. Philosophy will clip an angel's wings, conquer all mysteries by rule and line, empty the haunted air, and gnome mine unweave a rainbow.John Keats
Philosophy! Empty thinking by ignorant conceited men who think they can digest without eating!Iris Murdoch

Good vit D product
Posted by NBPT100 on Jan 13, 2016
Much has been written on vitamin D so I will not go into it here. This is a decent d product as it uses healthy oils and ingredients. Get your D measured before you decide what dosage is best for you. 5000 i.u's may or may not be an appropriate dosage for you. I only give this 4 stars because I like a liquid form of vitamin D better than this product. It is more cost effective and you can adjust you dose as needed. This is a good deal at the special trial price. Go to my iHerb home page to see what D product I recommend and read more about the many benefits of D. If this was helpful kindly click the YES button and see my iHerb page for more value added reviews. Peace and good health.

Started out to be a great value for the price. However after only two months, both meters suffered from rotary switch failures. We only used these about twice per week, should have lasted longer...

Look at this code:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
string s;
int n;
float x;
cout << "Please Type this: ABC456 7.8 9 XYZ\n";
cin >> s >> n >> x >> s;
cout << "\nDo you want to try Again(y/n)? ";
char t;
cin >> t;
if (t=='y' || t=='Y')
goto again;
return 0;
Just try to type "ABC456 7.8 9 XYZ" and press enter, it will cause the program exit before prompting the user to try again. I know the inputs are wrong and they are not in their types, but why it causes the exit? and how to avoid such exit?
