Hi, I just upgrade my MU site to 3.0.
Till now I have just few problems but my Backend is unbearably slow.
The former version was 2.9.2 wich was really fast.
What can I do?
Thanx in advance.
Hi, I just upgrade my MU site to 3.0.
Till now I have just few problems but my Backend is unbearably slow.
The former version was 2.9.2 wich was really fast.
What can I do?
Thanx in advance.
Try decativating all plugins. If that resolves the issue, reactivate each one individually until you find the cause.
I deaktivated all plugins before I upgrade. And it was slow from the first moment.
It´s terrible even openening the plugins area can last for 3 Minutes.
Any other idea?
You may need to optimize the database.
Access your WordPress database via phpMyAdmin (most hosting providers offer this in their control panel), check all of the tables, and choose "Optimize tables" from the pull-down menu.
GOOD Advise!
But it was not the solution. I optimized the tables after your hint. And it seems to be fine. I ran a ping test with no result. The Backend is still unbelievable slow.
And I definatly have no clue whats going on here. Hopefully you have another suggestion. So we can help others who may ran into the same problem.
Let's see what happens when you increase PHP's memory allocation.
First, try installing the Memory Bump plugin.
If that doesn't work, here are four more ways to increase PHP's memory allocation:
1. If you have access to your PHP.ini file, change the line in PHP.ini
If your line shows 32M try 64M:
memory_limit = 64M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (64MB)
2. If you don't have access to PHP.ini try adding this to an .htaccess file:
php_value memory_limit 64M
3. Try adding this line to your wp-config.php file:
Increasing memory allocated to PHP
define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '64M');
4. Talk to your host.
@cyprus - how many blogs do you have on your system, and did you hit the upgrade button under Site Admin -> Upgrade after you did the initial upgrade?
Hi I ran an info.php and my PHP Memory Limit is 256M
I install Memory Bump with no result.
I added define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '128M'); to wp-config.php
I´ve got 5 Blogs running right now but I want to run approxmatly 200 in the future.
I made the Upgrade but I got this message: Couldn't resolve host blog.main.com
The backend is still slow like a turtle
Okay I´ve got it.
Every hint you gave me was important and good to keep in mind.
But the solution was different.
I missed a single step in the upgrade routine. After I loaded up the new files to my server I DID NOT run the upgrade prozess cause it was not written in the tutorial I used
So my solution after uploading your files run /wp-admin/upgrade.php
which may look like this on your server
Thats it . Happy blogging.

Field Roast dinner with all the fixings: Vegan comfort food to the max!
The Eats: Judkins St. Cafe, 2608 S. Judkins St., 322-1091.
Field Roast dinner with all the fixings: Vegan comfort food to the max!
*See Also Plum's Vegan Bounty: Organic, Zesty, Batali Approved!
Judkins St. Cafe: Where Your Dead Grandma Would Go to Taste Her Own Comfort Food
The Deets: One Monday a month--a night this cozy, "healthy comfort food" serving cafe just off MLK is usually shuttered--owner Michael McGloin partners with a local chef to offer an all-vegetarian prix fixe menu. It's their version of Meatless Mondays, a dining initiative started by the Johns Hopkins' Bloomberg School of Public Health with a goal of helping "you reduce your meat consumption by 15% in order to improve your personal health and the health of the planet." Coinciding with World Vegetarian Day, this past Monday, David Lee--chef-owner of Field Roast--created a three course meal featuring (what else) his grain based meat substitute.
The Beets: With items like chicken pot pie and a pulled pork sandwich on the regular menu, this place is all about comfort food, and most of the all-vegan spread shared similar qualities. That is, except for the raw "tangle" salad of butternut squash, beets, and zucchini (pictured, left). Bright and crisp, delicately dressed with apple cider vinegar and sesame seeds, it was less comfort-food and more palate-cleansing.
But the light starter was a calculated preamble to the main event. The second course, hazelnut crusted Celebration Roast with blackberry citrus beurre blanc, came accompanied with a mouth-watering plateful of sides--south Indian succotash with coconut cream, wild rice and mushroom timbale, garnet yams with shitake-porcini gravy. The hearty fare was a seasonal feast, highlighting the textures and flavors of autumn's bounty, with nary an animal-derived ingredient on site to take the credit. With owner McGloin cheerfully serving the home-style fare himself, Lee casually chatting up tables, and reservations maxed out, the scene took on the feel of a welcoming neighbor's warm and bustling kitchen.
A rustic (raw) apple tart with cashew cream ended the meal. Hearty and slightly sweet, the apples were partially dehydrated with a bit of crunch left in them, reminiscent of a Lara Bar.
With a few glasses of wine, the meal was complete and satisfying, a sensation that brought to mind a comment best-selling vegan author Kathleen Freston made in a recent NY Times piece on vegetarian food moving ever more into the mainstream: "Just because you're a vegan doesn't mean you don't want to have fun. I want to drink. I want to feel full at the end of a meal. I just don't want it to have any animals in it, for a variety of reasons."
The Tweet: Judkins St. Cafe's Meatless Mondays are just that: Fun, filling, and fantastically meat-free.

Genie Petina by Baron-EngelWatch
©2013-2016 Baron-Engel
Maybe it was due to my recent posting of the Move to the Music! girls link and they are all wearing harem-like outfits, or maybe it was because I have not posted anything with Petina in while. She gets that way sometimes, but last night I had this little stand-alone dream where Petina was a little mouse genie. Of course the first time she came out of the bottle the first thing she said was.
"Just having me come out of this bottle should count as one of your wishes!"
Fortunately she was joking and all and all it ended up being a fun little one night frolic, and a good time was had by all.
"Just having me come out of this bottle should count as one of your wishes!"
Fortunately she was joking and all and all it ended up being a fun little one night frolic, and a good time was had by all.
Nice smoky effects
...................................................Yeah, okay, I'll a wish for that. B)
The bottle dancing pic had me thinking of the theme to, "I dream of Jeannie". This one has now made it worse!
And Petina looks fantastic in that outfit.
Quite possibly the inspiration of bottle dancing.
Petina likes to think she's the inspiration for a lot of things. Modesty has never been her strong suit.
I'm not surprised. At times I have to wonder how she managed to squeeze her ego into the bottle.
Petina glares at you. "Hey! I have no problem fitting it in here!" She then proceeds to spend the next minute trying to stuff it in the bottle.
Sexy mouse-genie.
But of course that would be a nice thing to do. I would also make sure, fully, to let her play with my wishes a bit. Best thing for a genie to do.
A delightful outfit (even if I do have a weakness for such things). What color is it? An original design or did she copy something from Andur or another source?
Petina looks like one of those genies you need to be very, very specific about the wording of your wish, lest she have fun interpreting it for you.
Yeah, that maybe why I never got around to making any wishes during that dream. The Devil is in the details.
Petina the Genie coming out of the bottle? Yes please <.< Especially in that outfit xD
Petina smiles at you. "Oh you like this little thing I put together?"
Sexy, funny, and adorable! I like that line from her, so fitting!
Excuse me a moment... I need to wipe up the drool stain on my computer desk now...
- Polecat
- Polecat
Well, in this case you DID have a friend like this XD
Yeah, bad joke. But really good drawing ^^

@node Semantic Internals
@chapter Semantic Internals
@c This 'ignore' section fools texinfo-all-menus-update into creating
@c proper menus for this chapter.
@end ignore
This chapter explains the internals of @semantic{}.
This information would not be needed by neither application developers
nor grammar developers.
It would be useful mostly for the hackers who would like to learn
more about how @semantic{} works.
@section Semanticdb
@acronym{Semanticdb} complexity is certainly an issue. It is a rather
hairy problem to try and solve.
This is just an overview really. The basic organization is this:
@table @file
@item semanticdb.el
Defines a @dfn{database} and a @dfn{table} base class. You can
instantiate these classes, and use them, but they are not persistent.
This file also provides support for @code{semanticdb-minor-mode},
which automatically associates files with tables in databases so that
tags are @emph{saved} while a buffer is not in memory.
Lastly, it has that @dfn{root} stuff in it. Basically, it is a system
by which a file can be associated with the root of a project, so if
you have a tree of directories and source files, it can find the root,
and allow a tag-search to span all available databases in that
directory hierarchy.
@item semanticdb-file.el
Subclass the base class database so that it can be saved to disk.
Implements all the hooks needed to unbind/rebind tags to a buffer
while writing them to a file. Overrides various methods as necessary.
@item semanticdb-system.el
Subclass @code{semanticdb-file}. Supports creating a @acronym{DB} in
a directory you do not have write-access to, and saving the cache in
your home directory. Also implements a @acronym{C}/@acronym{C++}
subclass which can be used for caching @file{/usr/include}. (A rather
slow process.)
@item semanticdb-el.el
Implements a different kind of @dfn{system} database that uses Emacs
internals to perform queries. Sadly, this shows a problem of
nomenclature since it is not a @code{semanticdb-system-database}
(which saves to a file), but database with no file component that
queries system tags in a different way.
@item semanticdb-find.el
Infrastructure for searching groups @semantic{} databases, and dealing
with the search results format.
@end table
New things partly written, or to be written someday.
@table @file
@item semanticdb-postgres.el
Any @acronym{DB} would do, @acronym{MySQL} would be fine. Basically write
tags into a relational database, and provide searching facilities.
This is probably the only way to allow fast look-ups in humongous
source areas. Another possibility would be something like what
@acronym{Cscope} does.
@item semanticdb-java.el
A system database for @acronym{Java} that uses @acronym{JDEE}
@acronym{BeanShell} queries.
@item semanticdb-obj.el
A system database that uses command line tools to rip symbols out of
@file{.so}, or @file{.a}, or @file{.o} files, and translates into
@item semanticdb-javascript.el
A recent notion that somehow knows all those built-ins
@acronym{JavaScript} has.
@end table
@c LocalWords: Cscope JDEE BeanShell JavaScript MySQL Semanticdb

World's Squarest Reporter Destroys Pot Purchased With Expense Account
Bummer, dude.
In setting up his Coloradoan video report on the ease of buying newly legal weed, reporter Trevor Hughes describes himself as "kind of a square. Probably a little bit of a fuddy-duddy." Yeah, um, kind of. He bought a gram of weed on his paper's expense account and then turned it over to the sheriff to be destroyed. The video's interesting enough (and Hughes is rather charming, fuddiness aside), but if you don't have three minutes, basically the report involves him making a purchase at a pot club, keeping it sealed, then delivering it to the sheriff's department for destruction, as he had promised the boss. Bummer, dude.

Setting the Stage:
The Crisis of 1988
and Its Origins
We in Myanmar were not prepared for the force and fury of the storm
[1988 revolution]. As the years rolled by, we had started to equate leth-
argy and lack of change with stability; speeches and notions with prog-
ress; excuses with reason; and manipulated statistics with the real facts.
—Maung Maung1
Coups may be commonplace in the third world, but a military coup designed to shore up another military regime is unusual, although it has also occurred in Thailand.2 Although the Burmese coup of 1988 replaced the previous leadership with a new group of officers, it was not intended to shift power even among the military or between military factions. Rather, it was designed to continue military rule by other means. It took place with the acquiescence of the authorities.
On September 18, 1988, General Saw Maung, commander of the Burma Army, carried out a coup in support of a tottering military government that

A blue and black combination. The blue pieces are so small the mesh and sequins found in a remnants box at the fabric store.
The jersey top from the magazine issue September 2012 is used a base with few modifications to the top part of the dress. The flare skirt is self drafted. Clean up lines are used to accommodate the mesh and bust and wait darts are used maintain a proper fit.
I love the combination

He had what I thought was a cold that was irritating his BPD and asthma....until he very suddenly went into respiratory distress Sunday afternoon and could barely take a breathe...
So I rushed him to the ER. He was satting high 70s low 80s. Man, I felt like a horrible mother! He was negative for RSV, but positive for metapneumo virus, and has pneumonia and double massive ear infections. He's been requiring between 1 and 2.5 liters of oxygen, lots of different neb treatments, several different antibiotics and steriods. Its been so rough. Yesterday, he went down hill again and his heart started to give out b/c he was having to work WAY too hard to breathe. So they transfered him to the Children's Hospital where they have a special Respiratory floor. The docs at my local hospital were terrified he would crash and need to be intubated, and they can't support it there since there is no PICU.
So, my husband and I are taking turns with the baby at the Children's hospital, which is about an hour away. Today was rough because it was my older son's fourth birthday. My mom flew in today to help us. I haven't slept more than 2-3 hours a night since this all started. Bennett is still on 1.5 liters of O2, but he's starting to perk up and not be so lethargic. He wasn't able to eat for two whole days, but today he took a 3 ounce bottle and started smiling and babbling again, so we're hoping and praying this is a sign he's on the mend!
They warned me how devasting an illness could be to him since he still has a lot of damage in his right lung, but I never imagined how horrible it could be. He's only 10 months old! He should NOT have to endure two major hospitalizations in less than a one year period! I swear, i haven't taken him anywhere other than the doctor's or his grandparents' in the past two weeks. I have been obsessive about preventing this very thing and yet it STILL happened! I just can't even process it right now.
Anyway, please send up prayers for Bennett. I cannot wait to have him home again. Thanks ladies!

I always manage to run out of 3 things almost on a daily basis but right now I can only remember onions..... what are yours?
what ingredient do you always run out of?
My kitchen is kind of my obsession. I have a chalkboard wall. When something is low or emptied, it gets written on the board right away.
I keep a well stocked pantry and like to be able to whip things up on a moments notice. Lol.
That's not to say I never run out of anything, just not usually and not the same thing most of the time. My grocery shopping is pretty efficient too because I plan what we will eat for the next 2 weeks. Not the specific days, just the meals. I write these on the black board too because it makes it easy to see what meat to take out to defrost in the morning, if any.
For the pp who's milk goes bad in gallons- I'd bet you are buying low fat milk. It's wierd but that goes before the date. I buy whole milk (we have this wonderful local stuff that's pasteurized but not homogenized. You have to shake it to mix the cream back in. Tastes soooo good.) but that'll last a couple of days past the date.
Perhaps some of the things I do will help someone else run out less. :)

The attack on Thatcher by her outgoing deputy prime minister in 1990 could be mirrored by the chancellor if he is shown the door by Gordon Brown

Unfortunately, some people who have weight loss surgery will experience post-surgery complications. There are many physical complications possible, but one of the most frustrating is weight regain. You might think that weight loss is the only possible result after weight loss surgery, but this is not always the case.
Often, weight loss surgery patients think that the surgery itself guarantees weight loss. In reality, the surgery can't make you lose weight all on its own—your weight loss is contingent upon how you eat after you've had the procedure. If you don't follow the post-surgery eating instructions provided by your doctor or other clinician, such as eating small meals, eating nutritious foods, and avoiding snacks, then you might actually gain weight after surgery. The reduced size of your stomach is meant to make these lifestyle changes easier; just don't forget that it's these very lifestyle changes that help you lose weight.

My daughter has long straight hair that gets very tangly. This conditioner works and I also comb her hair in the shower as I rinse it. The conditioner is very thick, and I actually make about 1 1/2 bottles out of one by adding water.

Posted by eattingtolive on Dec 13, 2013
Not all conditioners out there are equal and I'm impressed by this one. I've never spent so much on hair products and I don't always believe you get what you pay for but this was an excellent purchase. It's gentle and effective on my daughter's hair and leaves a light smell. My daughter's hair gets tangled quick and if she skips this step I know it!
Posted by 4664073339569890514 on Jan 03, 2014
This conditioner is paraben-free. The berry smell is mild which is really nice. My daughter's hair is very fine and tangles easily. i think this will detangle thick hair much better than it does fine hair.
Nice product
Posted by Reviewer3350288 on Jun 14, 2014
Nice smell and detangles quite well. It has to be left on for a couple of minutes for the best result.

Comments about Nashbar Long Reach Road Brake Caliper:
I bought these brakes for my 1980 Schwinn that was converted to 700c. They worked perfectly. The catch was they are made for the recessed nut, not the older traditional nut that I have on the back of my bike. My front fork has been updated and it worked great. I took a chance and ordered a front brake for the rear to get a longer bolt for the older style nut. It worked perfectly. If you go this route, just make sure to flip the pads around on the rear. The reach isn't so long, but is exactly as advertised in the description. Measure your bikes and do your research before you review things poorly for being exactly as advertised.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Not a very long reach
By Steve
from Greenwood Lake, NY
The brakes are of good quality. Not long enough for 2 80's French bikes I've upgraded to 700 wheels. I'll use the brakes because they are are well made and affordable with home made drop mounts.
Good quality brake for bike requiring a long reach caliper
By smee29
from Nashville, TN
I installed these on a 2012 Trek 1.5 road bike. They work better than the original brake calipers. I did replace the pads with Kool Stop Dura 2 pads, so I can't comment on the quality of the included pads. Excellent modulation and stopping power. Recommended if you need to replace long reach calipers.
Great brake
By Sprocketman
from Brussels WI
This long reach brake fits perfectly on my old frame which I upgraded with new components
Good value
By Skaggs
from GA
Used these brakes to convert 80s steel 10 speed to 700c. Previously had Shimano Sora on the same bike with 27". I feel the same stopping power. Quick release levers don't help with getting wheels off (they would probably be enough for road tires, but I'm running cx 30c). Great price for the product. I highly recommend Nashbar products to anyone on a budget.
Nice Brake Calipers
By DC
from Tacoma
I bought these several months ago but only recently had the chance to finally finish the project bike that they were originally purchased for.Replaced a cheap pair of center pivot brake calipers, made a world of difference. Reach is just right, solid feel, vast improvement over the original calipers.If I ever get new rims, I might get some upgraded shoes/pads, but for this bike, they're a very good fit.
Not Quite Long Reach
By Old Retro Rider
from Nashville , Tn.
If you want stronger braking over old style single pivot brakes for the money these are hard to beat! I bought 2 pairs of front caliphers to use on the rear of older steel frames. The front brakes longer mount bolt allow you to install the brake without drillingyour frame. You reuse your mounting hardware from the old brake and swap the brakepads left to right. My only problem was the reach of these to the rim. They are shorter than stated under specifications with a max reach of only about 55-57mm.
I would buy again

I needed a long reach rear brake system, and this came up with the proper length at a excellent value...

Only 40-60mm!
By Dr. Jake
from P-Town, UT
About Me Commuter
While these brakes are longer-than-the-average-road-brake, make sure that if you are converting an older 26" wheel bike with fenders (such as the lady-type bike I was refinishing for my wife)that you find the RIGHT length for the bike. These were too short for the bike I was restoring. I ended up ordering their brakes that have a 55-73mm reach. The 55-73mm brakes fit perfectly on the bike I was working on. This is an awesome product. The brakes are lightweight, easy to install and have great stopping power. Just make sure that you order brakes that are long enough to reach for the bike you are working on!

You can thank motorcyclist Sean McAfee for snapping the above photo before the city had a chance to clean it up. In McAfee's words: "I almost crashed I was laughing so hard"
According to Pennsylvania Department of Transportation spokesman John Ambrosini, generally there is a crew foreman who ensures the road ahead is clear of debris and dead animals before the paint truck arrives, today however there was no foreman on the job.
Ambrosini said that the equipment used was too large to turn around in traffic but that the crew did try and stop the paint gun before reaching the carcus.

Copies, DLC-USG, V, 12, 13, 14, 80; DNA, RG 393, USG General Orders; McClernand Papers, IHi. O. R., I, iii, 470. In response to a letter of USG which has not been found, Brig. Gen. John A. McClernand wrote to USG on Sept. 4, 1861. "Your note of inquiry of this date is received. The communication from Maj Genl Fremont to which your inquiry related, was an order to assume command of the Post at Cairo &c now in command of Col R J Oglesby. In compliance with that order, and of your suggestion—I will (consulting Col Oglesby's Convenience) assume the duties of Post commander, and be happy to co-operate with you in all things for the good of the service." LS, DNA, RG 94, Generals' Papers and Books, John A. McClernand; copy, McClernand Papers, IHi. On the same day, Maj. Gen. John C. Frémont wrote to USG. "General McClernand is not to be detailed from Cairo on any distant service, but is to remain there or vicinity, and attend to the rendezvousing of his brigade."

USG stated that his uniform had not yet arrived when he established hd. qrs. at Cairo on Sept. 4, and Col. Richard J. Oglesby seemed somewhat hesitant about surrendering his office. Memoirs, I, 264. Oglesby confirmed USG's account in a letter of Sept. 28, 1886, to Thomas Donaldson. Journal of the Illinois State Historical Society, XXXVIII, 2 (June, 1945), 242-44. It seems possible, however, that, since USG had been in Cairo since Sept. 2, the incident remembered by both had occurred earlier.

Fall 2012 Graduate Certificate Core Courses
Feminist Theory:
"Race, Nation, Gender"
Melissa Forbis
This course will examine the key debates and concepts that have informed contemporary articulations of feminist theory. We will focus on how feminist theory is produced, along with gender, through configurations of nation, race, citizenship, sexuality, and class in different historical and cultural contexts. We will begin with a brief look at the shifts in feminist theory from the 1970s to the early 21st century by examining a selection of classic texts. Reading across disciplines, we will employ a transnational feminist perspective to examine the continuities and ruptures of feminist theorizing in diverse locations, challenging the presumed location of theory in the West/Global North and the middle-class. Finally, we will work collectively to trace the conditions and contours of emerging feminist thought. Themes include: nationalism and the nation‐state; colonialism and postcolonialism; borders, boundaries and borderlands; and migration and diaspora.

Advanced Topics in Women's Studies:
"Madness and Civilization, 1960-1980"
Lisa Diedrich
This is a class about madness, reason, and time; or about how and why madness emerged as a particular preoccupation at a particular moment in history. Why 1960-1980? Because madness and its diagnoses and treatments figured prominently in the social, political, theoretical, and institutional transformations that took place leading up to and after the widespread upheavals of 1968. We will trace the multiple figurations of madness in some of the key texts of social and critical theory, as well as in literary and film texts, in order to consider questions about subjectivity, power, and ethics. We will start with Michel Foucault's work, because it is through investigations into the experiences and events of madness that Foucault will begin to develop his archeological and genealogical methods. In the early 1960s, he takes up questions of madness in history and the relationship between reason and unreason. He returns to the topic again, and anew, in the early 1970s when he considers various practices of psychiatric power. One of our tasks will be to think about Foucault's historical-ontological investigations of madness as histories of the present of the 1960s and 1970s. Alongside Foucault's History of Madness (1961), The Archeology of Knowledge (1969), and the lectures on Psychiatric Power from 1973-1974, we will explore other discourses and practices of madness as presented in Erving Goffman's Asylums (1961), Frantz Fanon's The Wretched of the Earth (1961), Félix Guattari's Chaosophy: Texts and Interviews 1972-1977 (2009), Gilles Deleuze's Desert Islands and Other Texts 1953-1974 (2004), Juliet Mitchell's Psychoanalysis and Feminism (1974), and Hélène Cixous and Catherine Clément's The Newly Born Woman (1975). Another task will be to consider how these thoughts on madness from the 1960s and 1970s shape later post-structuralist, psychoanalytic, and/or feminist thought.
Tuesdays 4:00-6:50pm Humanities Room# 2052
Cross Cultural Perspectives:
"Theorizing World Cinema"
E. Ann Kaplan
Adrian Perez-Melgosa
In this course we will examine the way films from around the world have engaged with issues that are both global and local in their repercussions. The course looks at a corpus of films dealing with one or several of the following topics: migration/diasporas, global markets/local economies, social trauma, borders/contact zones, ecologies, and intercultural affects. We will contextualize the movies through a conceptual framework composed of film theory as well as cultural, gender, race, and social theories. In preparation for the course, students should be familiar with basic concepts of film analysis and cinematic language, and basic critical theory.
Tuesdays 1:00-3:50 p.m. Humanities #1009
Topics in Cultural Theory:
"Homeland (In)Securities"
Nancy Hiemstra
Since 2001, the pursuit of 'homeland security' has played an increasing role in shaping our practical and ideological worlds. This course critically examines the relationship between homeland security and experiences of insecurity 'at home.' Our inquiries will encompass a range of scales and places. We will begin by exploring the evolution of ideas of national security in U.S. history and the adoption of the term 'homeland security' after the 9/11 attacks. Then, we will scrutinize the work that homeland security does to shape public discourse and policy. We will ask: How has homeland security framed domestic policies, such as those regarding incarceration, labor, education, and immigrants? How have particular ideas of femininity and masculinity been incorporated into public policy? How does the stated objective of defending the homeland shape U.S. foreign policies (such as those regarding drugs, borders, and international aid) and drive militarization? Next, we will consider ways in which homeland (in)security is reconfiguring intimate spaces of our everyday lives. How has the concept been used to legitimate violence and discrimination? How can it shape personal interactions across cultural and ethnic groups? How has it normalized new tactics of surveillance? Course material and discussion will also examine the work that this concept does outside of the United States. For example: How has homeland security been taken up in discourse and policy around the world? In what ways do U.S. homeland security policies reverberate into daily life in other countries? What does the security-driven geographical extension of boundary policing say about the conceptualization of sovereignty? The course will approach these questions by critically evaluating current events through a range of theoretical and disciplinary lenses. We will draw on work by, for example, Giorgio Agamben, Wendy Brown, Judith Butler, Michel Foucault, Derek Gregory, Jennifer Hyndman, Amy Kaplan, Cindi Katz, and William Walters.
Thursdays 1:00-3:50 p.m. Humanities #2052
Topics in Cultural Theory
"The Cultural Study of Mobilities"
Liz Montegary
Mobility studies is an emerging field that examines the intersecting movements of people, things, capital, and information across the world as well as the movements of everyday life, including interpersonal affective exchanges, physical bodily processes, and communication and transportation technologies. This seminar begins with an overview of critical perspectives on the meanings and practices of mobility during the modern period and offers an introduction to what Mimi Sheller and John Urry have called the "new mobilities paradigm" within the social sciences. Although this new field has drawn heavily on the work of geographers, sociologists, and anthropologists, this seminar will pay particular attention to what interdisciplinary humanities approaches can do for the study of mobilities. Specifically, we will look at the ways in which the field creates bridges between feminist and queer studies, critical ethnic studies, postcolonial studies, and science and technology studies. We will investigate how circuits of mobility are intimately connected to processes of immobilization, and we will consider questions of social/economic justice in relation to the ethics of mobility. How has the rise of transnational capitalism given way to new modes of governing mobile subjects and desires? What might an analysis of the overlapping movements of tourists, soldiers, and migrants contribute to our understanding of borders and citizenship? How have developments in transportation and navigation technologies instigated new ways of being, seeing, and feeling? What theoretical frameworks and methodological approaches are necessary for studying the global circulation of objects, images, and affect? Readings will include work by Michel Foucault, Gilles Deleuze, Timothy Cresswell, Inderpal Grewal, Amit Rai, Jasbir Puar, Sara Ahmed, and Scott Lauria Morgensen.
Thursdays 4:00-6:50 p.m. Humanities #2052
Gender and Culture:
"Sociology of Gender"
Michael Kimmel
In the past thirty years, in part because of the insistence of the women's movement both inside and outside the academy, gender has come to be understood as one of the central axes around which social life revolves. And so the distinctly sociological analysis of gender has likewise expanded dramatically, so that today the Sex and Gender section of the American Sociological Association is the largest section of the organization.
The literature in the sociology of gender begins, properly and predictably, with a critique of mainstream sociology's myopic exclusion of women. Women's experiences, perspectives, interests, knowledge were omitted in a generally androcentric social science; and each of the social sciences has witnessed such a critique. From this initial critique, several different strands of exciting empirical research have emerged. Some have continued to explore the specificity of women's experiences, often reifying and naturalizing sex difference as gender difference. Others have assumed biological similarities, but rather explored the ways in which gender differences are created in a system of gender relations, and the ways in which both difference and inequality are reproduced through both institutional arrangements and social interactions. That is, as you might have guessed, the perspective of this course.
In this course we will explore the historical emergence of a distinctly sociological perspective on gender difference and gender inequality, and become familiar with the different institutional arenas and methodological strategies one can follow to explore those themes. As a broad survey of the widest possible spectrum - rather than a detailed investigation of one specific arena - the course is intended to serve three purposes: (1) to familiarize graduate students with the range of theoretical perspectives, analytic strategies and institutional arenas in which gender relations are being examined in the social sciences; (2) to familiarize both new and advanced graduate students with substantive and pedagogical issues in the teaching of Gender Studies: and (3) to engage with graduate students in all disciplines who understand that given the centrality of gender in social life.
Mondays 2:00-5:00 p.m. SBS # N 403
PHI doctoral seminar
Psychoanalysis and Philosophy:
Classical and Contemporary Issues
Ed Casey
This course will first take up classical psychoanalytic theory in Freud and Klein, followed by its revision by Lacan. From there, issues such as the incorporation of the other, the role of the ego and super-ego, emotion (e.g., guilt, melancholy, the uncanny), the Oedipus complex, temporality, the place of culture, and gender identity will be pursued with readings in figures such as Abraham and Torok, Laplanche, Deleuze and Guattari (in Anti-Oedipus), Kristeva, Irigaray, and Rogozinski. Throughout, emphasis will be placed upon psychoanalytic ideas and practice in their interplay with philosophical notions and questions. Special stress will be placed on the mind/body relation as it emerges in various thinkers; on the role of fantasy and memory; on the role of the unconscious in the psychopathology of everyday life; on the nature of dreams and their interpretation; and on the character and fate of language and speech in psychoanalytic therapy. No prior knowledge of psychoanalytic theory or practice is presumed.
Wednesdays 6:30-9:30 p.m.
PHI masters seminar
The Sublime and Sublimation
Megan Craig
This course investigates the notion of the Kantian sublime in light of the psychoanalytic concept of sublimation, with a focus on writings by Freud, Julia Kristeva, and Melanie Klein. Sublimation entails a redeployment of physic energies into new, more fruitful, or socially acceptable directions. Often, though not always, sublimation results in the creation of a work of art. We will consider what it might mean for sublimation to be "successful" and whether sublimation is possible in all cases. We will also ask about the traumatic aspects of Kant's analysis of the sublime turn of mind in order to question the degree to which trauma, imagination, creative expression, and psychic wellbeing may or may not be linked. In addition to Kant, Freud, Kristeva, and Klein, we will also read excerpts from Burke, Nietzsche, Newman, and Lacan.
Required Texts:
Kant, The Critique of Judgment, and Observations on the Feeling of the Beautiful and the Sublime.
Freud, The Freud Reader, Ed. Peter Gay (W.W. Norton, 1995).
Kristeva, Black Sun (Columbia U. Press, 1992).
Klein, The Selected Melanie Klein (Free Press, 1987).
Mondays 12:00-3:00 p.m. Stony Brook Manhattan
Sexuality, Race, and the Nation State
Gill Frank
With an emphasis on US history since the 19th century, this graduate course examines the intertwined histories of race, sexuality and the state. Drawing on historical and theoretical sources, we investigate sexuality and race alongside each other and thereby explore violent encounters, loving relationships, legal battles, political activism, commercial exchanges, class antagonisms, religious mores, gender politics, popular cultural representations, and intellectual debates. By exploring the intersection of race and sexuality in relation to the growth of the modern state, we take up other key themes including: governmentality, nationalism, transnational politics, imperialism, and the law.

I recommend ordering up a size. My 31" waist is snug in the size 32. Jammer is exactly what I expected. Rides a little low but that seems to be the style these days. Only 4 starts because I had to return first pair.

This are great
I have had these for over a year and they have been great. No fade and they are very comfortable. As to the other comments about size I have not had any problems. I have had 4 different pairs of Nike Jammers and so I always order the same size (34) and they fit great. I look for polyester as I think they hold color better.
Fit: Feels true to size
Way too small
I feel like they would have been great, had they fit.I used the size chart and read the comments, so I ordered what I thought was the right size.They looked like they would barely fit a 1 year old, let alone a 5 foot person.

- The company, on the basis of change in net income from the same quarter one year ago, has significantly underperformed when compared to that of the S&P 500 and the Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels industry. The net income has significantly decreased by 77.6% when compared to the same quarter one year ago, falling from $86.61 million to $19.41 million.
- Compared to its closing price of one year ago, WLL's share price has jumped by 47.32%, exceeding the performance of the broader market during that same time frame. Looking ahead, however, we cannot assume that the stock's past performance is going to drive future results. Quite to the contrary, its sharp appreciation over the last year is one of the factors that should prompt investors to seek better opportunities elsewhere.
- Net operating cash flow has increased to $214.06 million or 10.03% when compared to the same quarter last year. Despite an increase in cash flow, WHITING PETROLEUM CORP's cash flow growth rate is still lower than the industry average growth rate of 25.18%.
- The gross profit margin for WHITING PETROLEUM CORP is currently very high, coming in at 76.10%. It has increased from the same quarter the previous year. Regardless of the strong results of the gross profit margin, the net profit margin of 4.50% trails the industry average.
- Despite its growing revenue, the company underperformed as compared with the industry average of 23.5%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues rose by 23.1%. This growth in revenue does not appear to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, displayed by a decline in earnings per share.
TheStreet Ratings Top 10 Rating Changes
(WLL - Get Report) has been downgraded by TheStreet Ratings from buy to hold. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its robust revenue growth, expanding profit margins and good cash flow from operations. However, as a counter to these strengths, we find that the growth in the company's net income has been quite unimpressive.Highlights from the ratings report include:Rating Change #3 Whiting Petroleum Corporation

Ok, something that has been bugging the ever loving crap out of me, and I'd like to get others ideas and opinions on it.
Recently I was involved in a discussion on if there is any real such thing as white magic and black magic, and something kept coming up over and over. Non Wiccan pagans quoting the Wiccan Rede, and applying it across the board, specifically regarding the last part. "And it harm none, do what you will"
I was flat out told that I was wrong because I don't follow this. I'm not Wiccan, and it doesn't factor into my beliefs. Apparently, to alot of my fellow pagans, it doesn't matter what your beliefs are, it still applies to you.
To me, this seems rather dogmatic, and a very Christian approach to the matter.
So, I would like to know how you lovely ladies feel about this

I have a friend who is getting married for the second time. She was married for maybe a year and a half the first time and they had a son together. When they divorced, she and her son moved in with her parents and lived with them for about a year and a half. She is now living with her boyfriend in a different state. He is in the military and has a son from a previous marriage as well. They have been living together for about 6 months and have decided to get married. Today she asked where she should register and if she should register.
Should someone who is on marriage number two and who has been living with their SO for about 6 months register for wedding gifts?

"LIBERTY" Statue of Liberty National Monument by janiac
Statue of Liberty National Monument Travel Guide: 18 reviews and 108 photos
Getting to Liberty State Park is very easy. Take exit 14b off the New Jersey Turnpike and follow the clearly marked directions to the park. Ferries leave from the park to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. Also nearby, one can pick up a water taxi if you just want to go across to New York without the hassle of driving into the city. Parking was $5.
We arrived at the park at 10:00 a.m. on an overcast October Sunday morning, bought tickets and were able to board the ferry immediately. When we later went to the New York side, we saw the line for the ferry over there was about two blocks long. I can't guarantee you will have as good a luck as we did, but I had heard the Jersey side was always less crowded than the New York side
From the Statue of Liberty, we were told we could hop on the New York bound boat, but would have to buy another ticket to return to the island and Jersey or take the water taxi. So we went onto New York, took the subway to the Empire State Building.
When we wanted to return to Jersey at 5:00, we learned that the ferry was no longer an option as it did not stop on Liberty Island or Ellis Island anymore at that time of day, just circled it. So we walked about 15 minutes to find the water taxi (it did not leave from the main Battery Park on the day we were there). For $5 a person (my youngest daughter was free that day), we got a quick ride back to Jersey City.
- Pros:Great thing to do with the kids
- Cons:You can't go in the statue right now
- In a nutshell:She is absolutely gorgeous in person

Respond to Review of Ramsi's Cafe on the World
by etherealviolet
Review: I have been eating at Ramsi's for over 7 years now. Ramsi has come a long way and while he use to have a small and limited vegan selection, I was in yesterday (after a bad 3rd Ave Cafe experience) and the menu is loaded with double the amount of his items that use to NOT be able to be veg or vegan friendly which are now veg and vegan friendly. Loads more! I cannot wait to try the dishes my husband loves but a vegan version! And they are so accomadating to my kids when we order a basket of tofu and fries for them! Even though it's not listed on the menu as an actual item. No questions asked! They will do the best they can to make you happy and I have never had any bad service. Also, Ramsi's now offers a non smoking section and outdoor eating too! Way to go Ramsi!

LUG's Lament Video Corner
On the subject of "Lesbians Until Graduation," and all the stigma attached to the label, a commenter points to the Two Nice Girls song on the subject. A sampling:
I spent my last ten dollars on birth control and beer
My life was so much simpler when I was sober and queer
But the love of a strong hairy man has turned my head I fear
And made me spend my last ten bucks on birth control and beer
It concludes: "there's certain thrills that lesbian love simply cannot supply / Like paying for abortions from sperm gone awry." Indeed.

Downsizing may be appealing, but consider these first
Join the NASDAQ Community today and get free, instant access to portfolios, stock ratings, real-time alerts, and more!
When it comes to the international finance industry, I have conflicting influences and have to be careful to keep an open mind. I made a living in dealing rooms for nearly twenty years, and, to a certain extent still depend on the industry in my role as a writer. That time on the inside, however, also gave me some insight into the moral and ethical questions that arise when a business makes nothing but money. I try, therefore, to be neither a consistent critic of Wall Street, nor a consistent cheerleader for finance.
This morning, as I look at the major companies reporting earnings, the financial industry and its role in the economy trouble me. IBM (IBM), General Electric (GE) and Blackrock (BLK) have all reported since Wednesday's close. This is admittedly a small, unscientific sample, but the relative performance of these three giants of tech, industry and finance demonstrate a problem for the economy of the U.S. and maybe even the world.
IBM roughly met expectations when they released their numbers after yesterday's close, but earnings and revenue were down 15% and 4% respectively on a year to year basis. GE, who reported this morning, also saw both revenues and profits decline in comparison to last year. Blackrock's numbers, released this morning, showed a 9% increase in revenues and a whopping 21% growth in adjusted EPS.
Two major corporations that are both in the business of making things lost ground. The money manager that makes only money continued a run of strong growth. This could, of course, be specific to those individual companies, but it is hard not to extrapolate a pattern. Companies that make things are struggling, while the financial industry is booming.
The growth in investment managers is understandable in many ways. The Fed's actions over the last few years have given an enormous boost to equity markets, and therefore to companies whose revenue is derived from a percentage of the money they manage. Obviously, if the stock market goes up, then so does the number of dollars managed by Blackrock, and therefore their revenue. Higher markets weren't the only thing that drove Blackrock's performance though; they also saw net inflows of $14 billion into their funds. Some of this could be won from competitors due to great performance, but money invested in mutual funds is notoriously sticky, so a large percentage of "new" money is likely.
It is an old cliché of traders in any market that the dumb money coming in is a sign that the top has been reached. I hate to break it to you, but "dumb money" in this context means you and me, the retail investors. Bear in mind that the earnings released by BLK this morning are for the last three months, and the volatility of the last few weeks begins to look less like passing turbulence and more like a sign of trouble to come.
Increased inflows into mutual funds do not, in and of themselves, indicate trouble for the market is imminent. There is some demographic inevitability to it as baby boomers approach retirement. Analysts have been saying for a while that there was still an enormous amount of cash sitting on the sidelines following the recession, and this could be just the beginning of that money's return to action. When that inflow is combined with a jittery market and weak performance from large, multi-nationals, however, it doesn't bode well for the next few weeks or months.
In the longer term, this imbalance between making things and making money could have other undesirable consequences. Markets are about the allocation of capital and resources. The more of those that are directed to the profitable but unproductive business of managing money, the less there is for the basic manufacturing that all economies need.
Until now, I have seen the last few weeks of volatility as merely a rebalancing between growth and value and a much needed correction in certain areas where valuations had begun to outstrip reality. If this pattern continues, of retail inflows into the markets just as demand weakens then I will revise that view and become a lot more bearish. I am not talking about selling everything; history shows us that that is usually a foolish thing to do. A reduction in exposure to stocks and a general reduction in risk, however, would be a wise move.

CNN Orders Out-of-Home Study on TV Viewership
With spending on out-of-home media poised to all but double by 2011, networks are eager to get a better handle on the relative effectiveness of television advertising when it's viewed outside the confines of the family room.
CNN has commissioned Integrated Media Measurement Inc. to analyze out-of-home ad exposure for 10 clients of media agencies OMD and PHD with an eye toward ensuring greater accountability for viewership in bars, dorm rooms, gyms and other venues.According to Greg D'Alba, executive vp and COO of CNN Ad Sales, IMMI will begin measuring the news network's out-of-home exposure in fourth quarter. Once data is processed in early 2009, D'Alba will share the results with the agencies and their participating clients to better contextualize media planning.'By getting the clients more involved in the research, we can give them a clearer picture of just how effective their ads are in out-of-home environments,' D'Alba said. 'This dimensional study further justifies the investment they're placing in our networks.
'To track out-of-home exposure, IMMI panelists are equipped with mobile phones that pick up and relay a series of audio signatures back to a central server. The company has established local panels in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Miami, Houston and Denver.Per Nielsen Media Research, about 8 percent of all TV viewing takes place outside the home. While a final roster for the IMMI study has yet to be set, the list of participating clients is expected to skew more heavily toward the OMD side of the Omnicom business.Chris Geraci, OMD's managing director of national broadcast investment, said he anticipates that some invaluable insights will be brought to light after IMMI crunches the numbers.
'This data will allow us to provide our clients with measurable results and a deeper analysis,' Geraci said.Harry Keeshan, executive vp, national broadcast at PHD, characterized the CNN initiative as an opportunity to provide his clients with a better understanding of how a TV spot can reach its target demo, even in the context of a nontraditional media environment. 'People are adopting more and more innovative ways to get their message out there, and out-of-home is making a significant impact,' Keeshan said. 'With everybody looking for better engagement and ROI, this is a home run.'
Industry projections bear out the enthusiasm. U.S. out-of-home spending is expected to reach $2.25 billion in 2011, up 79 percent versus '07, per eMarketer analysis.
