We at Natcore work hard to communicate to our shareholders the progress we are achieving with our technology. We believe that we've earned a reputation of doing so.
Because of that reputation, some shareholders have asked why they haven't heard much from us lately.
I want to assure you that our recent relative silence does not imply a lack of progress or achievement. On the contrary, our temporary silence is a result of successes and how we are working to deal with them. These successes are now starting to emerge….

We're Natcore Technology. Even though we don't make solar cells, we control technology that promises to make solar energy cost-competitive with energy derived from fossil fuels.
To reach that goal, we must double the efficiency of solar cells and/or halve their cost. Our technology promises to do both.
So we're changing how solar cells are made. We have gathered the brightest scientific team in the solar industry; established exclusive licenses and/or joint research agreements with Rice University, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, and the University of Virginia; and received 18 patents (with 36 more pending).
Using our liquid phase deposition, black silicon, and laser technology, we grow a thin anti-reflective coating on a silicon disc without the need for toxic chemicals or a high-temperature vacuum furnace.
Although our technology can also have dramatic impact on semiconductors, optical components, eyewear, aerospace exploration, and architectural coatings, we have chosen to concentrate on solar energy. In that area, our scientists have made many breakthroughs, which you'll discover as you explore this Web site.
Once our objective is at hand, we can turn our attention to generating revenue with license agreements, royalties, equipment sales, and chemical sales.

1. Re: Programmatically publishing Contextual EventsFrank Nimphius-Oracle Jul 6, 2009 12:30 PM (in response to Lucas Jellema)Lucas,
Below is an event producer binding and the code that invokes it from an ADF Faces button. If you call the same from a managed bean then you need to create the
ActionEvent manually before you invoke it
<eventBinding id="MyEventBinding" Listener="javax.faces.event.ActionListener"> <events xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adfm/contextualEvent"> <event name="mActionEvent"/> </events> </eventBinding>
public void onEmployeeSelect(ActionEvent actionEvent) { BindingContext bctx = BindingContext.getCurrent(); BindingContainer bindings = bctx.getCurrentBindingsEntry(); JUEventBinding eventBinding = null; //get a handle to the eventBinding eventBinding = (JUEventBinding) bindings.get("MyEventBinding"); ActionListener al = (ActionListener)eventBinding.getListener(); al.processAction(actionEvent); }
2. Re: Programmatically publishing Contextual EventsLucas Jellema Jul 9, 2009 4:17 AM (in response to Frank Nimphius-Oracle)Hi Frank,
Thanks for your reply. I was NOT aware of this solution - at least not the eventBinding. I did know about the solutionof creating an actionBinding/methodBinding that was only meant for triggering the event.
However, I was hoping to get by without a PageDefinition with 'fake' Data Bindings to produce an event. I have a task flow that only uses managed beans and does not currently have a page definition, data bindings etc. This solution you also propose seems very heavy handed for just publishing an event. You do not happen to know of a lighter weight approach? I am wondering why I would need a page definition and data bindings to raise an event. Any further thoughts?
Edited by: Lucas Jellema on Jul 9, 2009 6:15 AM - note that eventBinding was new to me (I had read sloppily and only noticed the use of the PageDef with special bindings that I tried to avoid).

Hi. I had a c-section with my first, and I stayed in the hospital gown for all four days I was in the hospital. Far too many family members got a glimpse of my backside, and I am sure I looked pretty spiffy when people came to visit. Earlier this year I visited a friend in the hospital who had just had a c-section the day before, and she looked great. She was in bed with a tank top and goucho yoga pants on. I was shocked, and it made me realize that I must have looked like a giant slob. Quite frankly, I probably would have felt better in my own clothes too.
I am thinking of bringing something to change into while I am in the hospital, but I don't know how practical it would be after a c-section (yes - I have to have another for medical reasons). For those of you who had c-sections, did you stay in the hospital gown, or did you change? Thanks for your input.

9 Ways I'm Getting Back Into a Fitness RoutineLauren Hartmann
I've always struggled with my weight for as long as I can remember, so I'm no stranger to dieting and exercise. Pre-pregnancy I had gotten into a pretty good routine, but it was pretty easy to fall out of my routine once I was pregnant. The excuses, while legitimate, were plentiful: "I'm too tired", "I feel awkward trying to do Zumba with a giant pregnant belly", "My feet are swollen", "It's too hot – I don't want to overheat the baby".
And, let's not even talk about the eating. While I ate a fairly balanced diet, I definitely enjoyed my indulgences, namely ice cream…often. By the time my pregnancy was complete I had gained a whopping 55 pounds. Lucky for me 35 of those pounds came off right away in the week after Fern was born, but I've still got 20 to go – actually 30 since I was 10 pounds over my "happy weight" before getting pregnant. Time to get back in a routine!
So, what am I doing to get back into a healthy routine and shed these post-baby pounds?
Find out after the jump!
Eating a good breakfast. 1 of 9While I won't be going on a "diet" per say, I will be trying to eat a well-balanced diet instead of subsisting on granola bars. I've found that starting off my day with a protein packed breakfast is key. For some reason it helps me to make healthier choices all day, and even if it doesn't at least I got in one substantial meal. Eggs are the easiest option, but they leave me full until I can manage to get away for a moment to make something else later in the day.
Writing down what I eat. 2 of 9Sometimes I simply forget what I've already eaten for the day (5 granola bars in one day rings a bell), so I will be keeping track of what I eat - not the calories, simply so I can be more self-aware.
All water all the time. 3 of 9When I was pregnant I almost exclusively drank water, since most of the fun drinks were off limits, but now that I'm not pregnant soda, juices and coffee have slowly crept back into my diet and they're just empty calories, so I'll be choosing water over all else unless I'm eating out.
Ditching the gym. 4 of 9The gym just doesn't fit into my life with a baby anymore, both the time commitment away from Fern as well as the price tag now that we have one less income. My jogging stroller and I are going to be really good friends.
Teaming up with friends. 5 of 9Working out is always more fun with a friend and it's a good excuse to get out and have a bit of adult conversation if you're a stay-at-home-mom.
At home workouts. 6 of 9Before Fern was born I had taken a Barre3 class and I loved the ballet/pilates/yoga fusion, gentle yet challenging. But, with a new baby and adjusting to a one-income budget going to Barre3's classes simply wasn't in the cards. Lucky for me, they just started an online program called My Barre3 so I can use the Barre3 workouts at home for a fraction of the price and on my own time. There are 10, 40 and 60 minute videos that are constantly being rotated so you won't get bored. Currently the 10 minute ones are all I can manage, but they're great!
Finding some new tunes. 7 of 9The right music can be great motivation when the urge to give up on a run is looming in the distance. My personal favorite is the "Girl Talk" station on Pandora.
Tabata Intervals. 8 of 9Since I don't have a ton of time to workout I have to make the most of the time that I do have and Tabata Intervals are great for that. Basically Tabata Intervals are 4-minute workouts involving 20 seconds of all out intensity and then 10 seconds of rest, repeated 7 times. You can then repeat with as many sets as you have time for.
Taking advantage of my new workout buddy. 9 of 9Fern is becoming my new workout buddy whether she likes it or not. She needs the fresh air and sunshine and I need a perky bum. It's a win/win for everyone.

Skip to comments.American Flag Banned on Campuses Across the Nation
Posted on 12/04/2001 12:19:34 PM PST by Jean S
As the stars and stripes fly proudly all over America, many colleges are banning the American flag and other patriotic symbols deemed to be "offensive." Marquette, Lehigh, Arizona State, Central Michigan, and Texas A&M are among the campuses where flag controversies have erupted.
Officials at Arizona State forced the removal of the Flag from the Sahuaro dining hall. When the student senate pushed for a bill to reinstate the flag, it was voted down.
Student senator Oubai Shahbandar, head of the school's College Republicans, refused to let the matter rest. He launched a massive local media blitz and contacted alumni. The response was one of outrage. Shahbandar told Campus Report that it took over a week of angry phone calls for Arizona State to put the flag back. "It took them after thousands of calls, e-mails all over Arizona, all over the country, alumni everywhere threatening to stop donating. In fact, we got word from a good source in the alumni association that the administration was poised to lose over $1,000,000 in alumni contributions and actually we were able to substantiate this when we had a couple of large companies in the area emailing us and telling us that they would stop contributing until ASU got its act together."
"[The alumni] are irritated about the flag not being displayed," said Leila Moustafa, of the ASU Alumni Association office. "Many are threatening not to contribute to the alumni association anymore."
Student Scott Marceau commented, "It's appalling that a piece of cloth that represents the freedom our country stands for was taken down."
ASU bought radio ads apologizing for the ban to help repair their reputation. Public Relations vice president Leslie Aun admitted that the school had made a mistake. "In retrospect, we made the wrong decision," she said. Sodexho Marriott, which runs the dinning hall, also released an apology, but stated they had reason to remove the flag because it was "insensitive to all the international students that live in the dorm."
Shahbandar added, "What's really interesting is that when the story first broke, our president Lattie Coor did not say anything about our American flag being desecrated. But that same day Lattie Coor managed to hold a rally outside the student service building for [Ahmad Saad Nasim] who faked that hate crime against himself."
Activism was also responsible for reinstating the flag's display at Texas A&M University, where the Residence Hall Association barred students from displaying the American flag outside their dorm windows.
Chris Bernhard of the Residence Hall Association said the ban did not violate the First Amendment because it had been a long time rule that no flags could be flown because of fire safety. Students requested that an exception be made for the American flag in light of the recent attacks. The association denied their request.
Other students opposed making an exception for the flag because by not allowing other national flags, it would create an "exclusionary environment and nullify campus claims of diversity."
After negative publicity surrounding the Association's decision, Texas A&M sent out press releases stating that, "No attempt is being made to curtail appropriate display of the U.S. flag." Students argued that residence hall banners that are placed by residential advisors are allowed to hang out of windows, and they are not considered a "fire hazard." Residence life official, Tura King told Campus Report that after student campaigning the Association amended its decision to allow the flag's display outside windows as long as residential advisors ensured that safety standards were met.
Vice President of student affairs Malon Southerland stated, "We regret any misunderstanding created by our commitment to student safety."
Students at Arizona State and Texas A&M were not the only ones who ran into trouble trying to show their patriotism. Marquette University blocked students from holding a moment of silence around the American flag. "[The administration] felt that it showed too much nationalism or patriotism in respect to foreign students," said College Republican President Lonny Leitner. "We wanted to gather around that symbol and express our sorrow. Our right to free speech has been taken away by the upper administration."
"There was no formal request, no paperwork filed with Student Development-which is a requirment," said Vice President of Public Affairs Rana Altenburg. "It was a terrible situation because Lonny just wanted to have a moment of silence, which is perfectly appropriate."
College Republican faculty advisor Professor John McAdams commented, "I hope there's no prejudice against Arab students, but I don't think [the flag] would have encouraged that. Marquette simply looks silly trying to stifle [the memorial]. It's a major blunder on their part."
After a week of arguing, Marquette said the moment of silence could take place, but only where the ROTC would raise and then lower the flag to half-mast. "Taps" was also played.
"I initiated [the ceremony] in cooperation with ROTC since they do it every day," said Patrick Dorsey, liaison between Marquette and the ROTC. "We were being more inclusive and meeting the needs of the Marquette community. The only difference [from normal ROTC flag raising] was we invited everyone to come and respect and reverence the flag for what it stands in our hearts as a patriotic symbol."
Professor McAdams found the fact that Marquette held up the moment of silence to be unacceptable. "Marquette looks bad because of its inconsistent policy. The only way to make it more consistent is to take a more lenient approach. They should allow students to express themselves freely, within reason."
Lonny Leitner commented, "I'm happy some students on campus get to express patriotism, and I hope it is a great event for ROTC, but I am still extremely upset with the decision to deny us our freedom."
Patriotic symbols were also shunned at Central Michigan University. Residence hall directors in Emmons Hall told students they had till the end of the day to remove patriotic symbols which some considered "offensive." Freshman Edna Wolff Laingsburg had an American flag removed from her door. The Residential Advisors said the students were very compliant and nothing was taken down by the Advisors. "Sometimes things come up missing. People take stuff. We try to monitor, but if they don't tell us it was taken, we have no basis or background," stated Emmons Hall director Al Nowak. "The flag was never an issue."
"There were some materials on a couple of residence hall rooms that were vulgar and offensive in nature .They were asked to remove those. It wasn't a demand," executive director of public relations Michael Silverthorn told Campus Report. "We believe in the 1st Amendment rights of our students."
The incident upset Central Michigan's SGA which passed a resolution condemning the forced removal of patriotic symbols. "Recognizing, the recent alleged actions of university departments in ordering the removal of patriotic symbols and materials, therefore be it resolved, that the Student Government Association of Central Michigan University strongly condemns these actions, both now and in the future, and be it further resolved that the SGA of CMU urges all students on campus to appropriately express their patriotism and pride in America if they so choose."
Senate leader Bryan Beach commented, "This is going on on campuses across the country where they are telling people to take down American flags; and I think that, especially on a college campus, you should be able to hang a flag."
The removal of the American flag from a campus bus was enforced at Lehigh University. Vice Provost John Smeaton's decision was to promote "understanding." The school's newspaper, The Brown and White, supported the ban by bringing up seemingly irrelevant issues such as Muslim heritage and Arab Americans making contributions to society. They accused those who show patriotism of encouraging violence against Arab Americans. When Morning Call reporter Matt Assad denounced the ban, The Brown and White berated patriotism, writing, "Perhaps Mr. Assad would like to see our patriotism expressed via the beating of random Muslims as we have seen occur on campuses and in cities around the nation." Assad had made no such remarks.
Holy Cross's Chair of the Department of Sociology, Royce Singleton, forced a secretary to remove an American flag she had displayed in the department's office. Her friend Todd Beamer had died fighting to save lives on hijacked United Airlines Flight 93, which crashed in Pennsylvania. Singleton removed the flag himself after the secretary refused. After the incident drew negative publicity, Holy Cross apologized, yet the flag was never returned to the sociology department.
At Berkeley, firefighters were forced to take the American flag off of their trucks because of fear that angry anti-American Berkeley students might vandalize the vehicles.
Students at Amherst didn't want to ban the flag, just burn it. At a rally to sing "God Bless America" and other patriotic songs, students from nearby Hampshire College responded by burning two American flags nearby. Christopher Palacios' family had fled Cuba to escape Castro. "It makes me sick when American kids say the American flag scares them," he commented. One of the flag burners who refused to give his name, blamed the U.S. for genocide since 1492. A student at the rally, Theodore Hertzberg noted how this was just one of many anti-American acts on campus. "Amherst is 25 square miles surrounded by reality."
I'm pretty sure that college will be obsolete anyway by the time she is ready, and this kind of nonsense is only one more nail in the coffin of a 19th century college system that makes increasinly less and less financial sense.
Somehow, they made it through Immigration without geting offended.
How senstitive is it for foreigners to expect their host country to forfiet its identity?
Notice that of all the colleges that banned patriotic displays, none were opposed by College DemocRATS.
I swear that my children will never pass the place without cursing it as an example of everything that's wrong in this country.
God Save America (Please)
Worth saying twice.
"...it would create an 'exclusionary environment and nullify campus claims of diversity.'"
"[The administration] felt that it showed too much nationalism or patriotism in respect to foreign students,"
Residence hall directors in Emmons Hall told students they had till the end of the day to remove patriotic symbols which some considered "offensive"
You know what? To hell with the easily offended. International students should go home if they don't like it. FLY OLD GLORY!
UD has several deficiencies, but praise God for UD and its patriotic students.
The only point that I'd disagree with is that the left is not only still in place, but in fact, runs the place. The Academe, the press, the entertainment industry and the Democrat party are firmly controlled by the extreme, McGovern left. So far as the "culture war" stands, we've lost. I'm not a defeatist, I think that people are waking up and starting to realize just how bad it is.
Notice that nothing was done about the Administration officials at ASU who opposed displaying the flag.
The primary purpose of a college president is to raise funds. This guy almost lost $1 million in alumni donations, and he's still in charge. It just goes to show that in the public sector, leftist ideological purity trumps administrative competence.
Where have you been? This kind of anti-American crap has been happening on college campuses for years.
Next it will be NO US FLAGS anywhere...wouldn't want to be insensitive to all foriegn tourists, now would we?.....EF'M ALL...and the insane arseholes that run most of the acadamie in our G-d Blessed Country...the USofA!
When I read this article some thing spring out:
insensitive to all the international students that live in the dorm
Then what the hell these people do in the US? If they hate it, why do they come over? If they don't like the flag that represents the freedom that the US gives to it's inhabitants, they should leave now instead of forbidding Americans to be proud of their nation. How can anyone even try to stop people from feeling proud of their own nation in their own nation?
The removal of the American flag from a campus bus was enforced at Lehigh University. Vice Provost John Smeaton's decision was to promote "understanding." The school's newspaper, The Brown and White, supported the ban by bringing up seemingly irrelevant issues such as Muslim heritage and Arab Americans making contributions to society.
This is the biggest piece of cr@p I have read in weeks! They talk of "understanding" and muslim heritage (tolerance?), but they forbid others the display of their heritage, the US heritage! And what muslim heritage? Do they mean the terrorism that is supported by many muslim nations (Iraq, Iran, Libia, Syria, Saudi-Arabia, Sudan, Indonesia, Afghanistan and so on), or the rights non-muslims or woman have in these countries? No, the real reason for them to hate and burn the US flag is that they hate the things it stands for, freedom for all, justice for all, equality, freedom of speech and religion.
To all the people that want to ban the US flag: many have fought and died defending it. If you cannot appreciate the sacifice they made to make you live in freedom, you are not worth fighting for!
To all Americans who are proud of living in such a fine land:
Simply amazing! These tyrants are simple and ignorant.
The internatonal students that live in the dorm are residing in the US. They can expect to see the American flag on gov buildings, post offices, schools, and anywhere else an American chooses to fly one.
If they are offended by the flying of the American flag on American soil then they are welcome to vacate said soil at their earliest opportunity.
I don't know what nationality that name is, but damn if we don't have a foreigner in our country, being more Patriotic than some born-here Americans!
I'd love to go shake Oubai Shahbandar's hand. He's a real American. Stood up for the flag, fought the college liberal system and won.
We sure could use a few more like him. :)
Texas A&M is is one of the most conservative campuses in the country. If the author is throwing Texas A&M into the story, there must be more to it than is being stated.
Does anyone know the the rest of the story?
American history should be taught accurately, not in a positive light. Same goes for every other subject. We already have enough idiots here.
I know, I know . . . but that doesn't mean I understand it . . . I still say it's tyranical behavior !!!
They probably laugh amongst themselves (the intl students) about how easy it is to get the Americans fighting with each other about ridiculous issues like whether to allow an American student to display an American flag at an American university on American soil!
Why would you want to page one of the worst businessmen this country has ever seen?
You have just unwittingly described what makes this country as great as it is.
Stop any and all Federal funds going to these stunted institutions especially State Schools.
Set a basic standard of American History taught by these schools.
Get rid of the leftist Socialist A$$hole$ who don't want to teach true American History without the Liberal Bent.
Create Proper exams to test the students before they get a Diploma.
Let's go for a loyalty oath signed by the Faculty or ship 'em out.
Any college or university that refuses to allow the flag to be displayed should be banned for 20 years from recieving any tax support. Let the commie filth pay their own way!

Exactly what I wanted
This review is from: DELL UltraSharp and Professional Series 468-7412 10 W 2.0 AX510 Flat Panel Stereo SoundBar
Pros: Gets power from compatible Dell monitors; sound quality very reasonable
Cons: None
Other Thoughts: This is exactly what I hoped it would be, hanging neatly off of my Dell U2412M and getting it's power from my monitor. If your expectations are not too high, I think you'll be pleased with the sound. It's much better than I had with my previous monitor's built-in speakers (an old Viewsonic flatpanel), which had very tinny sounding speakers, but of course it's not going to have booming bass.

This review is from: DELL UltraSharp and Professional Series 468-7412 10 W 2.0 AX510 Flat Panel Stereo SoundBar
Pros: They put out decent sound for PC speakers, and help reduce clutter on your desk since they fit nicely along the bottom of your LCD monitor (no additional footprint for desktop speakers sitting on the left/right sides of your panel). You just align it with the tabs along the bottom rear of your monitor, slide a bit to the left until it snaps in place, and... presto! It also eliminates the need for an additional power brick to connect to your surge protector. The uniform black color matches well with the Dell U2412M monitor.
Cons: It lacks good bass, but you'd be looking elsewhere for something with a sub-woofer if that's what you want.
Other Thoughts: The speaker is obviously a one-piece item in the package, and has two protruding cables: a short power cable with the male power barrel jack that goes to your monitor, and the longer audio cable that you connect to the audio-out of your onboard/dedicated sound card on your computer.

This review is from: DELL UltraSharp and Professional Series 468-7412 10 W 2.0 AX510 Flat Panel Stereo SoundBar
Pros: Sleek design, looks good on monitor
Cons: No power supply. The description did not indicate that it did not come with a power supply. New Dell monitors do not come with addition power inputs for the soundbar. It would have been nice to know it did not come with a power supply. Without it, it is only usefull as a paper weight.

Lived up to High Expectations
This review is from: DELL UltraSharp and Professional Series 468-7412 10 W 2.0 AX510 Flat Panel Stereo SoundBar
Pros: These monitors are the high quality at a good price I've come to expect from Dell over the years. These monitors are BRIGHT; I turned them down to 60% of their max so I didn't get eye fatigue. No dead pixels and ghosting is non-existent for typical usage (Web browsing/movie watching/light gaming).
Cons: No DisplayPorts. The newer cards are dropping DVI for DisplayPort and these monitors require adapters to plug into the DVI ports on them.

PONCA CITY, Okla. (AP) - Wilson Miller couldn't bear to see his wife of 61 years deteriorate mentally and physically.
So, authorities say, Miller picked up his wife from a local nursing home, returned to their residence and put her in a lawn chair under a shade tree in the front yard.
Then he shot her, called 911, returned to his wife's side and shot himself.
"You can't condone it. But on the other hand, you can understand it to a certain degree," Kay County Sheriff Craig Countryman said.
He said Miller, 86, left a note saying he couldn't stand watching his 84-year-old wife suffer any longer, and that he was going with her.
Johnie Miller was dead when emergency crews arrived at the scene Tuesday afternoon. Wilson Miller died two hours later.
Countryman said it is not known whether the shootings were a mutual decision.
"I can say she probably was not able to make that decision at least the day of the incident," he said.

Implants Toolkit
Hormonal implants are small, thin, flexible plastic rods, each about the size of a matchstick, that release a progestin hormone into the body. Many clients are satisfied with them because they are safe, highly effective, long-acting, and quickly reversible. Implants require little attention after insertion, making them very convenient to use.
Three kinds of implants are highlighted in the Toolkit:
This Toolkit for health policy makers, program managers, and service providers contains reliable and relevant information about providing contraceptive implants, including the following:
- Essential knowledge about the method
- Relevant polices and guidelines
- Training resources
- Logistics information
- Program management guidance
- Service delivery guidelines and tools
- Communication materials
- Country experiences including implants in family planning programs employing strategies such as task sharing, mobile services, social franchising, integrated services, and more
Members of the Long-Acting and Permanent Methods (LA/PMs) Community of Practice developed this Toolkit, under the leadership of EngenderHealth, FHI 360, the Johns Hopkins Center for Communication Programs, and the U.S. Agency for International Development. The Toolkit includes resources from more than 50 publishers.

Volume: 30 liters
A fantastic bag. At first I was somewhat skeptical as to the comfort that the fairly firm shoulder straps would give, but having worn it with a good few kgs in it, I can say that my first impressions were incorrect!
It really is waterproof, and has kept my gear dry through some heavy showers weve had recently.
The waist strap could do with some padding, but apart from that, the bags a great all rounder, whether it be for walking to uni/college through the rain, or for going out for a days walk in questionable weather, it should fit the bill. I have yet to where it for an exped, but that should be some time soon!
Love the bag, love the colour, my sister loved her birthday present. Fast delivery, very happy all round. Thank you.
Love it. But one problem with my Base Camp: It cannot stand on its own, due to the flat panel hidden in the back of the backpack to keep the laptop from touching the ground.
Any idea how to make it stand on its own? Thanks.
No thanks, I'll check out now

Pictures, or Lack Thereof
posted 6/5/2007 11:10:47 AM |
what's this?
report abuse
I don't have pictures on my profile, obviously, and I'm fine with that.
For some reason I don't feel a need to have other random people on the internet judge my looks. I'm not trashing those who have profile pictures -- indeed, I enjoy seeing who I'm communicating with -- I'm just stating my own personal preference.
If someone chats with me and wants to see a picture I'll send them a few, I've got no problem with people knowing what I look like. I just don't feel it should be a criteria as to whether or not someone wants to talk (type) with me.
In all modesty, I don't find myself to be an attractive man though others tend to disagree. Going cueball at age 23 after having long, healthy hair kicked me in the ego, and the fact that I then sprouted a back forest didn't help either. I'm wiry and pale to boot, and pretty much the only things I have going for me in my opinion are my virtually unblemished complexion, a pair of strikingly dark blue eyes, and an ass that even I admire in passing moments of narcissism.
I don't require pictures of the people I chat with, and while I won't be so bold as to judge those who do, I would point out that they'd meet a lot more interesting people with less emphasis on... superficial... aspects. Sure, I'm fairly insistent that I see a picture before I actually meet anyone (after all, physical attraction is half the battle) but up until that point I'm find with a lingering curiosity.

Having pictures isn't about being superficial. It's about being sincere. There's something that doesn't sit right with me when I get perverse emails from people that don't have pictures. As if their anonymity means they're allowed to converse with me in ways they wouldn't own up to if we were staring each other in the eyes. I want to see a smile, see kind eyes, not by all means a hunk, but someone genuine and honest enough to share themselves. We don't rate people here, we can however comment on pictures. Not everyone here is vain and willing to call you hot or not, we just want to know who we're sharing this community with. However, your choice is your own, but you might miss out on meeting good people if you automatically assume that sharing pictures here is just to boost egos.

I didn't mean to suggest that I feel posting pics is all about ego, simply that I'd rather have people more interested in my personality than my looks. The sincerity, as I see it, comes from my willingness to share photos with people I communicate with on an individual level.
BTW, I commented on your latest blog before I even saw you posted on mine. Creepy coincidence.
Jun 5 @ 11:42AM
Like you said, physical attraction is half of the battle, yet you refuse to post a pic. Youve lost the battle before it begins. I ignore those that dont have a picture. The technology to post one isnt that advanced, and weeding out those that either dont have one, or are obviously infatuated with their own dick, has been quite frequent here. The human race has always focused on appearance as signs of health,happiness and attraction, and I seriously doubt it is going to change anytime soon. Its the way of the world no matter who agrees with it.
Jun 5 @ 11:49AM
When I first came here, I was a little leery about posting any sort of pic, but I decided it was a fun way to add a little something to the online persona. It shouldn't be the basis for judging anyone, but I find photos fascinating in the context of their owners' personalities. The visual cues from those little pictures somehow liven up the dynamic around here.
Jun 5 @ 11:59AM
Well i for one have talked to people with and without pictures. I think that there is more about a person than what they look like and when they are ready you will see what they look like. I do have pictures posted because thats who i am and i choose to give people the option of wanting to talk to me no matter how i look. I do think tho, there are some that do post pictures because their ego is way out of wack. ITs like LOOK AT ME LOOK AT ME I AM SO GORGEOUS!! but i think you can pick them out by reading thier essays. Whether a person chooses to post or not a post a picture they shouldn't be judged on it. What a person looks like is only a part of what attracts you to them, can you not give someone a chance to become friends and than work on other things? i think the more you like someone the more attracted you are to him/her. And what other people would view as butt ugly you may care so much about that person you find them attractive.
Just my 2cents.
Jun 5 @ 4:22PM
You are a member of a minority group of men, who feel that conversation with interesting women can be enjoyed without a pic.
I have found that the majority of men want to know what I look like.
And even though my profile has a assortment of different pic's
I still receive requests for more pics to be posted
Jun 5 @ 5:28PM
I don't have a pic posted and if anybody wants to see a pic of me all they have to do is ask. If someone chooses not to talk to me because I don't have a pic posted, that's their choice just as it's mine not to have it posted. I have talked to a lot of people, with and without pics, and it doesn't matter to me one way or another if you have one posted.....it's all about personality and what we do or don't have in common. I will say tho in order to meet somebody I have to have a pic of them ...1. so I know who I'm looking for and 2. for safety purposes.
Jun 21 @ 8:47AM
I can talk to someone with or without a pic but when it comes down to meeting them, I agree with you MsBliss...you need a pic for safety reasons and you want to know who you will be looking for.
The one thing that KILLS me is the guys who don't have a picture and they see my pictures and still ask for more.... now that's ballsey.
Jun 17 @ 10:29AM
I think chating or email with a stranger is more exciting without the use of a pic, and the focus of getting to know some one is more taken into consideration, rather than getting more familar with some ones picture. I could get by just as easily with a brief description of the person. Like you I don't mind being seen in public, but believe there are many precautions that one needs to consider when posting pictures- thieves for example. I wouldn't say that it's all together a bad idea to trade pictures, but sometimes pictures can really get in the way of getting to know somebody;(especially on this site) they just don't present themselves as nicely as words do.

Random fashion thoughts - Page 4836post #72526 of 1090541/29/13 at 11:02pmI have a J.Crew suit for work. I bought it somewhat close to retail (20% off?), but I'm pretty happy with it.

when i was suit shopping i tried on a milano and fell in love with the fit on me. needed a suit asap though, so couldn't wait for sales and had to get something cheaper. if i end up in a business environment next summer I definitely want to get a milano.post #72536 of 1090541/30/13 at 6:13ampost #72537 of 1090541/30/13 at 6:28am

Hmm, construction is very basic but very often they offer relatively nice material, the cut at asian Uniqlos is very nice if you're quite slender. I have never tried on a suit though, just regular jackets and quite frankly, they end up looking sorta like my Thom Browne, of course YMMV.post #72538 of 1090541/30/13 at 6:32am

Where did you hear this comment? This is a very delicious, ironic joke.
For nearly 200 years, nobody could figure out how lift is generated, using the dynamical equations available. d'Alembert even had a famous example showing how lift seemed impossible (d'Alembert paradox)...yet birds seemed to soar, hover, glide, etc. The breakthrough came in 1905, with Prandtl's boundary layer approximation...genius, imho. Everything that has followed is just building on this, with lots of scaled-down experimentation and unleashing computers to crunch away at things, plus of course adding electronics, MEMS, etc.
But the basic approach to designing flying things hasn't changed much from Prandtl's approach.
There is so much more to that than just lift, though. the question that the below was in response to was actually "why can't we emulate a human brain in software," FYI. I thought it was a pretty cool read.Quote:
That's just it though, we don't understand the physical phenomena of how the brain works. We get the general principle; impulses go in, impulses go out (you can't explain that!), but the specifics of how neurons interact, how the different systems link together and especially how the whole mess creates the emergent phenomena of a person is still beyond us. Now, the logical response to this is "build some fuckhuge scanning thing and take it apart piece by piece", but that's still mostly beyond our abilities too. On top of that, doing that to a live human brain is (morally/legally) impossible because it would almost definitely kill, or traumatize beyond all reason, the person in the brain we're doing it to. Doing it to a dead human brain is what we've been doing, with the technology we currently have at our disposal. Unfortunately, a dead brain, especially one that isn't very freshly dead, is vastly different than a live brain.
To put this all into a metaphor:
The human brain is a trans-sonic plane, and the doctors studying it are engineers from 1900. They understand the the visible effects: push (a lot of random) button(s and weird glow-y panels that fill with changing words and may or may not be the result of the devil), receive thrust, and on some planes that are broken they've managed to tear off an engine and fiddle around inside it, but the avionics equipment, what with using semi-conductors and microprocessors, is basically black-box witchcraft to them, and the engines themselves are pretty much nonsense.
They recognize the basic idea of how the engines work; combustion of a hydrocarbon compound that isn't totally alien to them and is orders of magnitude more pure than anything they have outside of labs, much less in the quantities they need to run it for an extended period. The actual principles of the jet engine (compression from forced intake, fuel-air ratios, carefully tuned gear ratios and intelligent onboard systems in the engine itself to detect failures, damage and atmospheric conditions) are totally beyond them, and every engine they dismount to try to figure out stops working after two, maybe three, ignition runs since they're fueling it with total crap and have nothing hooked up to the diagnostic outputs and control inputs. Even the fucking landing gear is lightyears ahead of them; tires of vulcanized rubber, shocks based on pneumatic and hydraulic systems created through complex computer models to handle, y'know, a whole goddamn fucking plane bouncing off them. Even the goddamn metal itself that the plane is made of is alien to them, partly because aluminum was worth more than gold until some time in the late 1800's, and partly because the metallurgical techniques we use to create aircraft alloys, especially for trans-sonic planes, are utterly impossible given their level of technology.
So, to tie it all together: While the plane is in a running state, the engineers can't (from their perspective, with their tools and methods of figuring out how things work) touch a single damn thing that matters without everything breaking and flashing red. When the plane is disassembled and/or broken, they can't get anything working again and as far as they're concerned every single fundamental principle behind what we know to be how the plane operates istotally fucking impossible (remember that they hadn't even discovered heavier-than-air flight at this point. The wright brothers are still a ways off). Given a few decades or so, they'll eventually come to understand the principles behind some of the macro mechanical systems, and maybe even manage to mix up some fuel that will actually get the engine to do more than fail/explode, and at best even get an early start on powered flight in general. But actually replicating the plane itself is easily a generation or more out of their reach.
So, what does this mean for us and the brain? Basically, we're still a paradigm shift or two away from reallyunderstanding how the fuck the brain actually works. Unfortunately, until we understand how the brain actually works, we won't be able to replicate it without some disgustingly powerful hardware to emulate it at a near-molecular level.
To understand this, look at modern videogame emulator technology: it takes about a generation or two of hardware advancements to truly emulate previous consoles. Right now we're right at the level where we can just about comfortably emulate the N64. For the unfamiliar, many generations of emulators have bee built around literally disassembling the CPU of the system in question to figure out how it works on a hardware level and them emulatingthat in software. This is why many emulators, even though the emulated systems are fucking calculators by modern standards, have the tendency to lag like a motherfucker.
In conclusion: Can we emulate a brain without understanding how it actually works? Yes, but this will require a hardware-level emulation, which requires fucktons more horsepower than a software-level emulation. So rest assured, one way or another we WILL emulate a human brain in a computer. It's just a matter of which comes first: True understanding of a human brain (which will allow software-level emulation, and thus require much less computational resources), or the computational power required to emulate a few metric fucks of neurons at a molecular level. To radically over-simplify things, both the level of understanding required to emulate a brain in software and the flops required to emulate a brain in hardware are at the same point on the horizon. Personally, I think one or the other (or if we're lucky, both) will happen in the lifetime of the millenial generation.What I think is frequently glossed-over is that yes, we're about to hit the point where computers have equivalent processing power to what we believe the human brain to have, but that computational power WILL NOT let us emulate the brain at a hardware level (see the videogame hardware emulation example, and if you're so-inclined, check it out further, as the techniques used to do figure out and emulate old consoles are reallycool), only a software level, which is useless without actually understanding how the brain works.
tl;dr Human-brain-equivalent flops of computational power only allow for software-level emulation of the human brain, which is useless without understanding how the brain truly fundamentally works. Hardware-level emulation will require orders of magnitude more computational power, so in my incredibly oversimplified opinion, both hardware and software emulation of the brain are about a generation away, rather than some time in the 2020's, and this is factoring in exponential growth of technology and science.post #72539 of 1090541/30/13 at 7:29am

BB creams (also known as beauty balms or blemish balms) are the ultimate multitaskers—they hydrate, treat, and protect skin while giving us that healthy hint of color we all crave. But sometimes we need a little more coverage for blemishes and trouble areas. Housed in an innovative roll-on click pen, this BB concealer is our secret weapon against dark circles and hard-to-cover spots—with all the benefits of BB creams we've come to love.
This concealer is nothing special. I also hate the way you apply it. It's a rollerball that you click to make the product come out. It's hard to control and I inevitably end up clicking out too much that gets wasted. It doesn't appear to cover better than other concealers. I bought it mainly to cover dark circles and I find that it doesn't do that great a job. I wish I'd gotten a sample of this in my box, so I could have tried it out first.1
The roller ball is clever but the execution needs some work. I've clicked it over and over to no avail, haven't been able to get any of the concealer out. I've been storing it, roller ball down, hoping gravity would help - still nothing.
I'm tempted to cut it open to get at the actual product - I love the BB cream so much!
I really loved the BB cream so I figured why not try the concealar. No joke, I used the product (lightly) literally 5 times and it was gone. The amount of product didn't really bother me as much as how poor of a concealer it was. It was literally orange. Gross. Never again. I wish I would have purchased this from a makeup store that would take this awful product back.1
The roller ball concealer is a great concept. However, I just didn't find the execution to be great. The concealer would dry a bit on the ball, meaning there would be little crusty bits that would get rolled onto the skin with the fresher stuff. Just didn't work well for me.2
This is an excellent product -- very light and covers extremely well. I purchased it because I love the BB cream by the same name brand.
However, I use it sparingly and the tube is empty -- I dont think I have had it for more than a month.
Until I find something better, I will reorder it but very unhappy with the amount of product.
I may not be applying it correctly, but it tends to go on a bit dry. It has a plunger on the bottom and haven't been able to regulate the perfect amount that comes out. I either get way too much and waste it or not enough. The color blends perfectly and helps cover my dark circles, but I think I will be looking for a new concealer that is easier to apply. Or hopefully they will fix the problem with the plunger so it can be controlled better.3

Sadly Olive OIls is no more. It's now a Cajun Restaurant.
Thinking of going here in the winter months. Thanks for the Webb Sight. I sent for the brochure. Sounds like a place we would like if there is fishing nearby.
Thanks for the info. I have an "e" buddy who lives in Aiken. Its always nice to find out things about where he lives.

It's no knock to say reports such as this are usually all about marketing. And sure enough this report pushes something called the IBM Digital Analytics Benchmark tool -- IBM's "Big Data" analysis service. In fact there is a link at the end of the report for the product, which the company says "measures every interaction on every participating site, capturing comprehensive customer and user behavioral data." In other words, it's just counting what it sees: page views, sales, paid search sessions, marketing sessions, direct load sessions, all that stuff. And more, actually. From this show-all-the-data perspective, the report makes real -- and sobering -- sense.
Certainly e-commerce isn't disappearing -- it's maturing rapidly. It's no longer a retail playland. Some categories are facing real limits in retention, user interaction and probably growth. And while total sales will grow, the notion of "social sales" as a magic retailer bullet is probably not a winner. The larger message is clear: Don't be surprised when other reports begin mimicking IBM's data. And don't be surprised by how the Internet industrial complex stubbornly refuses to face this new reality. I guess floating down the river named "Denial" is just too much fun.

Am I supposed to take the 4-pill dose spread out throughout the day.... or all at once?
The doctor's answering service said to call the pharmacy- the pharmacy said to call the doctor's office. The lac. consultant is not going to be in for a coupel of days and I can't find any information that points one way or another online.
Anyone who took Reglan know how it works? Thanks!

was using maven+grizzly+jersey to start my own server. I created self signed certificate so that my server can support https. I case you are curious, following is how I generated my certificate
I was testing this on my iMac (Running Mavericks) Now, I added the server.cert to the system keychain so that all users can trust this certificate. Also, I change the trust level to "Always Trust".
I get this work in Chrome and Firefox. They asked me to add exception for this certificate, I did and then everything goes fine. However, I have never make Safari(7.0) happy. I always get the error saying that Safari cannot establish secure connection to my localhost.
Does anyone have any idea why it happened? Or is there better way to debug this problem so that I will be able to tell at which step things goes wrong.
Thank you in advance. I really appreciated it.
