Black Box Star Addresses the Challenges of Portraying Bipolar
By Brendan McLean, NAMI Communications Manager
After the premiere episode of ABC's Black Box in April, NAMI spoke with the show's creator Amy Holden Jones to gain insight on the series' development. Amy revealed that her father lived with bipolar disorder, and that growing up with that lived experience provided ideas and inspiration for the show, and instilled in her the responsibility of portraying mental illness to the public. Even so, some of our readers thought the show was exploitive and sensationalized.
NAMI wanted to explore the show's portrayal of a lead character living with bipolar by talking to Kelly Reilly, who plays Dr. Catherine Black, about how she chose to play her role.
Reilly, who has appeared in films like Sherlock Holmes, Flight, Pride and Prejudice and Heaven is Real, admits playing a character with mental illness is challenging, but is extremely passionate about the show and its attempt to accurately represent the experience.
When you were first approached with the role of Catherine Black, a doctor living with bipolar disorder, what were your thoughts?
KR: I had very mixed thoughts. I was so intrigued by this character—I was intrigued by her strength and her weakness—the juxtaposition of the two. In one area of her life she is successful, able and driven, but in the other she can't show any of that strength. That moved me. I thought, wow, that's a heavy burden to carry, that's a heavy, secret life to have and must make someone feel very alone in the world. I think there's a bravery to living with mental illness; there's a courage to just kind of move through life day-to-day.
In the months leading up to the filming, how did you prepare for the role?
Black Box became my life. Not just for the six months that we were shooting it, but for the six months before. Firstly, I was overwhelmed. I didn't know where to begin, so I just went academic. I read books and got my mind churning—I just read for three straight months. I read Kay Redfield Jamison's book An Unquiet Mind and it really threw me into the arms of where I wanted Catherine's sensibilities to lie.
I spoke to so many wonderful and generous people who opened up to me. There was one therapist, who has bipolar disorder and whose mother also died by suicide, much like Catherine. I became incredibly excited; I began to understand why Catherine wouldn't want to take her medication. The answer was because she didn't want to numb her feelings. On some level I understood it.
I asked this therapist, "If this was a choice you wouldn't have it, right?" She said, "Of course not." Having the illness is not a choice, but it is a choice to stay on the medication and to try and live a more balanced life. And I just think that my character, at this point in season one of our show, is nowhere near that. And I love that because I know where I've got to go, where I want to take her.
Have you learned any more about bipolar disorder and the people who are personally affected as you've filmed the show?
That has been the thing I've learned so much about. That's the thing that burst my heart and brain open. I have gone on such a personal journey with this character. I've found myself in conversations with a community of people who have taught me an incredible amount. By playing in this imaginary world of my show, trying to convey even just a fragment of what it might be like, my heart has opened to things I had no idea about; I realized that I fell into cliché thinking at times.
I think that mental illness is still the most taboo subject in America and there is so much ignorance around it. It became a passion for me. It just meant a great deal to me. I know people who suffer in my life, but I can see what amazing people they are.
Mental illness is definitely still a taboo subject. What role do you believe the entertainment industry plays in raising conversations about mental illness?
This is an industry where if it's in the wrong hands, it can be put in a color that's not truthful. Whether a project addresses mental illness, sexuality or violence, it can be misused for entertainment's sake. I don't enjoy that, I've never enjoyed that. If I think about a subject matter as sensitive and as important as bipolar disorder or mental illness, I want to make sure it's represented truthfully. I've had many conversations with the writers and producers of Black Box about how we were going to deal with a woman who was hypersexual and not make that entertainment.
I had to answer those questions myself as well because if I think about her from the inside, Catherine is enjoying it; she's addicted to the highs of her mania. But because of her approach and her own feelings of self-worth and feelings of shame, she cannot do that for herself.
When we talked to Amy, she mentioned the challenges of balancing entertainment with integrity—especially on big TV networks. Can you say whether changes are made to how mental illness is depicted within television to make it more interesting for viewers?
Amy's father had bipolar disorder and also happened to be a doctor, so she's writing from the inside. Many of the people who are involved with the show either know people or have relatives and family in their lives that are affected by mental illness. This was not just a group of people who wanted to make a drama about mental illness.
There are arguments that have been made about whether we've glamorized her experience. Did we glamorize it? Do we glamorize it? It's a question, and one that I'm open to, but my answer is God, I hope not. That was never the intention.
What I do know is that I wanted to portray my character truthfully. But it's not a documentary; this is a character. I wanted to show truthfully how, in the midst of going off her meds, she was joyful. But as we can tell watching it, that's not joyful, that's dangerous. She's running around the street with no shoes on, in a dangerous situation, being aggressive, having sex with a stranger. She doesn't even know who she really is when she wakes up. In my mind, I don't think that's glamorous.
Did Catherine enjoy it? Yeah, but then you see her in the hospital the next day utterly ashamed of herself. But we live and we learn. There are some things that I would have changed about those earlier episodes. But like any TV show, you're learning and figuring it out.
What do you hope the audience learns from watching your character develop?
I hope that they feel connected to her. I hope there's a sense of a journey and that people who have had no experience with bipolar disorder or don't know what it is, that this could hopefully disturb some of those negative clichés. I want people to see that she is not defined by her illness even though every day is a struggle, but for that, she should be respected and shown compassion, not judgment.
We are only at the beginning of Catherine's journey. By episode 13 she is in a very different place. You see a very different Catherine. You see her go up, you see her go down, you see her go up, you see her go even further down and then you see her go up again. This is television, so we are making it in 13 weeks. In real life, this could be 13 years.
What kind of feedback have you received by people who have been directly impacted by bipolar disorder?
I'm just really glad to have the opportunity to speak to you. I feel like I do the work, but I don't get to speak to the community that's impacted by the topics in this show. I am trying to learn about it and deal with it honestly and with integrity—and that's something that's very important to me. As Catherine descends in the later episodes, I hope we are able to do it with a lot more nuance and depth than we were in the earlier episodes. We're not trying to take advantage of this issue.
I realize that what we are portraying is not everyone's experience, but hopefully for some they find a connection. I've got hundreds of letters since the show started, and some are from people who have found similarities and have sent 12-page letters on their experiences. I'm just so moved by that. And I'm trying to respond to all of them.
What other show is really talking about mental illness in this way? I promise you, if I thought we were doing it wrong I wouldn't want any part of it.
ABC's Black Box airs tonight at a new time, 8 p.m., ET.

McKinley: Look At Indoor Air Quality
January 18, 2013
Rep. David McKinley is asking members of Congress and those at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency which is worse — the outdoor air near a power plant or the air you breathe in your home....
the air filter on his upper lip needs changed.
0 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
This is going to backfire on him, because whatever it is in our homes that is the cause of this indoor pollution, its man made, which means manufactured, which means business will have to clean it up, and they, in turn will pass the cost on to consumers.

I want McKinley to take a drug creen, and get a mental health evaluation. He's either on something, or he's crazy!

Show me the sights mr branson
It's an absolute must to see and explore even further...
He doesn't like flying now,(but flying is in his blood, his Dad and Uncle were in both in the RAF during WW2, and his uncle was awarded an MBE in 2009.) That said, if ever there was a chance to get him flying again this would be it - with Virgin Airlines. He's now 70yrs old and he and my Mum have been happily married for 51 yrs. He says he has no regrets about not reaching Vancouver because of the life changing experience he had in Yukon, but still, after all these years I'd like him to see it. So, I would like to nominate my Dad. Me and my 4 siblings would happily pay for my Mum to go along - because he will not leave the house without her!!
With a love of mountain biking and good food, Vancouver has always been a favourite place of mine.
But Vancouver means a lot more to my girlfriend. And I've made a short video to explain why:
As well as the reasons explained in the video - and the fact that I've never been before - I will bring humour, fun and joviality to the trip, whilst being a great ambassador for the UK and Virgin Atlantic. I am a true culture vulture in every sense and will lap up all experiences offered and share them with friends, family and the world across my many social media platforms.
Pick me - it's be the best decision you've made all year... I promise!
Do you know who is the winner ?
Thanks !

It sounds like Fran is scared to play ISU, not to mention Drake/UNI. It would be a shame if this rivalry ended, IMO.
I would be ashamed if I were a Hawk fan if my coach talked about major conference opponents like this......
McCaffery: Iowa has uncertain rivalry futures
Rivalry will go nowhere as long as a corporate sponsor exists IMO.
I hope we kill them tomorrow.
Don't believe it for a second.
Iowa always quits the rivalry when they start losing.
See 1934 in football.
I can see getting rid of UNI and Drake but I can't imagine Iowa and ISU not playing yearly.

Moreover, how could Iowa play Drake and/or UNI in any given year and not ISU?
If Iowa quits playing the in-state teams in order to schedule 3 more cupcake teams then Iowa basketball has reached a new low. I don't see the rivalry games going away, on any given year all 4 schools have been more competitive than the other.
Go Cubs Go!
The comment about Iowa State not being a rival makes Fran sound pretty ignorant. It is a rivalry even if they don't "have to go through us to win the championship." He clearly doesn't understand what match-ups like this mean to the state of Iowa, even for sports other than football.
I thought he was quoted saying something like "I can't imagine the home and home series between Iowa and ISU changing." This was in response to a Big 4 tournament.
Dropping us to play Kansas, UCONN, Duke - makes sense to me - NOT. The PR out of Iowa has not had a good week in relation to in-state games.
The money quote was when he said they may want to take on Kansas, Duke, or UNC in future years.

KU, Duke, and UNC need cupcake games too.
I thought there was an State of Iowa law in place that all 4 schools were to play each other. I don't know why people keep bringing this up.
Kyle S. Flander
I just find it funny that Fran wants to play Duke and Kansas, would have been funny this year, I think Duke and Kansas would break all their records.

Shaping California's Smart Grid
Published In: EnergyBiz Magazine January/February 2012
THE NATION'S POWER SECTOR is facing unprecedented changes, ranging from high levels of intermittent loading from renewable portfolio standards to complex cyber-security threats. New technology options, such as bulk electricity storage and plug-in electric vehicles, further complicate matters for power companies and ratepayers. State and federal policy changes require changes to the power system, which may ultimately increase cost and decrease service reliability. Shale gas is changing the fabric of the energy business, inverting pipeline flows and investment norms. In addition, water, wind and solar resources and heat storms will affect investments and operations as our understanding of global climate change matures.
Nowhere are these challenges more evident than in California, where the state has adopted many environmental and energy policy goals, including:
- Reducing greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by 2020 and to 20 percent of 1990 levels by 2050
- Requiring mandatory smart grid deployment by 2012, totaling over 16 million smart meters
- Increasing energy efficiency programs, targeting additional reductions of 5,000 to 8,000 megawatts of peak electricity demand
- Meeting 33 percent of electricity sales with renewables, which will require about 20,000 additional megawatts of intermittent wind and solar resources
- Using distributed generation technologies, including the California Solar Initiative and Small Generator Incentive Program, targeting an additional 5,000 megawatts of solar photovoltaic supplies and combined heat and power plants
- Retiring, replacing or mitigating once-through cooling power plants, which could affect more than 16,000 megawatts of thermal resources by 2020
- Increasing the use of cost-effective digital information and control technology to improve grid reliability, security and efficiency
The California Clean Energy Plan not only provides environmental benefits and introduces new energy sources, but also presents new challenges to be addressed while meeting the requirements for low electricity rates, high grid reliability and stability.
To address these challenges, Pacific Gas and Electric, Southern California Edison, and San Diego Gas and Electric filed an application with the California Public Utilities Commission this summer, to request funding for a five-year research and development agreement called the "California Energy Systems for the 21st Century (CES-21)." The three investor-owned utilties are partnering with Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory to provide advanced computational and analytical capabilities, and new tools and platforms for workforce training.
The proposal focuses on four areas: resource planning, operations, security and workforce preparedness, all to be approved by a governing board. The CPUC application includes use cases to illustrate the likely scope and scale of CES-21 initiatives. Given the breadth of the systems involved, even small improvements could save hundreds of millions of dollars annually.
With CES-21, new or augmented computational tools must balance reliability, costs and regulatory limitations, as well as transmission capabilities, economic use of supply, demand-side resources, distributed generation, and storage under uncertain system and market conditions.
California's Clean Energy Plan requires a more responsive and flexible grid. CES-21 proposes developing flexible metrics and standards to guide planning and operating California's electric grid in a future in which a large portion of the state's electric supply will be provided by resources with little or no operating flexibility. This effort would build on efforts by the North American Electric Reliability Corp., the Western Electricity Coordinating Council, the California ISO and others.
As the grid is becoming more interconnected and complex, the cyber-security threats are also becoming more sophisticated, well-funded and persistent than ever. CES-21 will help the IOUs, regulators and other stakeholders anticipate cyber-security risks, influence standards, and develop next-generation tools and methodologies to protect the grid from evolving and increasingly complex threats.
A key operational issue facing utilities is the ability to manage intermittent resources effectively while utilizing grid assets efficiently. The increasing number of intermittent resources make rapid, accurate stability analysis more critical than ever. System operators study and monitor the strength of the system for future events such as line maintenance, generator outages, real-time monitoring and post-event analysis. Using the tremendous amount of system data that is created, processed and analyzed, the application team aims to develop methods to increase the analytical capabilities of the investor-owned utilities to monitor and control the bulk-power system.
For a given demand scenario and configuration, today's gas system simulators calculate resulting pressures and flows throughout the system. These models are computationally intensive and require a significant amount of time and resources to run. The proposed plan is to build and enable tools to run hundreds or thousands of hydraulic scenarios within a day, improving the functionality, speed and abilities of the natural gas modeling platforms and the existing hydraulics code.
Accessing and applying high-performance computing is central to the plan, which will employ some of the fastest and most powerful computers in the world and the teams to operate them. They will run grid operations and planning models at much higher resolution and with increased complexity, faster and in greater numbers than ever before.
Although traditional desktop simulations work well for a variety of analyses and applications, the computing capabilities of Lawrence Livermore could provide a quantum leap in the IOUs' ability to analyze more data faster. The sheer volume of data the IOUs are confronting is dramatically increasing, and advanced metering infrastructure projects have already increased data volumes by several orders of magnitude, from only 12 data points of energy usage per year to 35,040 data points per customer per year for 20 million customers. The issues confronted by the industry are also growing in complexity and require more computationally complex and expensive models. High-performance computing will significantly reduce the time to run simulations and will help the IOUs better respond to today's business and regulatory demands.
This computational and modeling power will provide unprecedented insight into synergies, vulnerabilities and opportunities in the grid. Although it will enable those most vested in its operation to make smarter decisions, the main beneficiaries will be the ratepayers. Over the next 10 years, this advanced computational and analytical approach will save billions of dollars in investments, network efficiencies and crisis management.
As the United States grapples with the same issues as California, we imagine these tools in use nationwide. According to Richard O'Neill, the chief economist of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, "New software and improved models created in the CES-21 partnership could result in a return on investment of 1,000 when tools are applied nationally." The team looks forward to expanding current efforts to develop tools and approaches that utilities and agencies can use.

I'd like to share this with everyone of you, I am pretty sure you already talked about it but would like to understand if my thoughts are right.
Let's start with these statements:
- Manufacturers do provide normally the maximum load capacity of a mount.
- I do know that a certain pair scope/mount is working fine 8reference scope/mount)
Therefore, if I take a Scope/Mount combination and I calculate the moment of inertia for this setup, I can think that all the Scope/Mount which have a moment of inertia lower or equal the reference Scope/Mount and the weight does not exceed the one specified by the manufacturer, I am fine.
The moment of inertia for a bar with a central fulcrum is barely:
where m is the mass (well weight in our case) of the scope and l is its physical length.
From this formula, for my mount (Tak EM200) I get this table for some scopes:
Scope Weight Length Inertia FSQ85 3.9 0.645 0.135208125 VC200L 6 0.62 0.1922 GSO8 6.2 0.58 0.173806667 Edge HD800 6.35 0.432 0.0987552 FSQ106 7 0.675 0.26578125 RH200 8.4 0.5 0.175 TEC140 8.6 0.98 0.688286667 Edge HD925 9.53 0.559 0.248161994 AG10 12 0.81 0.6561 ODK10 12 0.475 0.225625 Edge HD1100 13 0.61 0.403108333 IKHAROS10 15 0.64 0.512
The TEC140 is proofed to be working fine with the Em200 for photographic purposes, so I take it as reference.
Am I reaching a wrong result?
From this result for instance I can put an Edge HD1100 on my mount, but not for instance an AstroTech RC 10" (which would have an inertia higher then the one of the TEC140, not listed here).
What do you think about it?
Thanks a lot for your valuable feedback

This political cartoon shows a wealthy man wearing a top hat with the words "Protected Monopoly" inscribed on it attempting to stamp out a fuse labeled "Canal Supply Question." The fuse leads to a large stick of dynamite with the words "The Tariff" written on the side. The cartoon most likely refers to the divisive Payne-Aldrich tariff of 1909 that proved too high for reformers and too low for conservatives.

Born: 11/29/1964
Birth Place: Kansas City, Missouri, USA
Cheadle was born on Nov. 29, 1964 in Kansas City, MO, but was raised in Lincoln, NE and Denver, CO. His father, Donald, was a child psychologist and his mother, Betty, was a bank manager, providing the Cheadle brood with a comfortable upbringing. Catching the acting bug at 10 years old, the fledgling actor took drama classes at East High School in Denver, before further developing his craft at the California Institute of the Arts in Valencia, CA. While he was earning his Bachelor of Fine Arts in Theater, Cheadle began a recurring role on the hit show "Fame" (NBC, 1982-87).

This weekend, Roadrunner, the World's Fastest Supercomputer from 2008, will be switched off but not be forgotten. Without ceremony, the first supercomputer to reach the once elusive petaflop - one million billion calculations per second - a feat accomplished in 2008 by Roadrunner, an IBM system installed at Los Alamos National Laboratory, will be decommissioned. Advancements made possible by Roadrunner have informed current computing architectures and will help shape future designs. During its five operational years, Roadrunner, part of NNSA's Advanced Simulation and Computing (ASC) program, was a workhorse system providing computing power for stewardship of the U.S. nuclear deterrent, and in its early days, a wide variety of unclassified science.
Read more about Roadrunner here.
Measurements from two recent aerial flyovers to determine the presence of background and man-made radioactivity brought good news for Los Alamos County and Los Alamos National Laboratory.
The radiological surveys, conducted in August 2011 and June 2012, found that radioisotopes and their associated exposure rates are consistent with those expected from normal background radiation.
The survey provided valuable data in several areas. First, the information updates a radiological survey conducted in 1994. Secondly, the survey showed the Las Conchas fire from 2011 did not impact background radiation levels. It also provides additional confirmation that the Rendija Canyon area remains at natural background radiation levels. There is an area north of Rendija Canyon under evaluation for return to public use.
The information will be incorporated into the lab's Long-Term Environmental Stewardship and Sustainability Strategy report.
A group of Pantex female engineers held a Smart Cookie workshop for Girl Scouts this weekend. The objective of the workshop was to foster a love of science and math in young girls who might make up the next generation of engineers at Pantex.
The Smart Cookie program started in January with a half dozen young women engineers from Pantex who decided to expose engineering to the next generation with a workshop for Girl Scouts. Since then, the number of women engineers who are involved in the project has doubled. Plans are underway to enlist experts from Pantex in math, science and information technology, for future events with the Girl Scouts.
About the photo:Female engineers from Pantex this weekend demonstrated a scientific principle known as nucleation. The engineers used Mentos dropped into Diet Coke to demonstrate the principle. The surface texture of the Mentos causes the carbon dioxide to be explosively released.
Participants in Sandia's Weapon Intern Program recently visited and toured NNSA's Kansas City Plant. The program, established in 1998, was created to meet Sandia's changing mission needs. Through a combination of classroom study taught by active and retired weaponeers, site visits and individual and team projects, weapon interns have honed their skills, broadened their knowledge base and expanded their network of colleagues in the nuclear weapons community.
Don Cook, NNSA's deputy administrator for Defense Programs, last week spoke to Pantexans about the future mission of Pantex and the critical role the plant will play in maintaining the nation's stockpile for decades to come. During the visit, Cook congratulated some of the 100-plus Pantexans who helped to secure the plant and conduct recovery operations during and after the Feb. 25 blizzard that dropped more than 19 inches on the Amarillo area.
Read more about the blizzard.
Workers at the Pantex Plant last month finished the largest concrete pour to date on the High Explosives Pressing Facility, completing the last of the elevated soffits, which are part of the roof deck/second story of the building.
The pour marked the completion of approximately 50 percent of the construction on the 45,000 square-foot facility, which will combine high explosives operations from numerous outdated buildings into one state-of-the-art facility which will help to bolster Pantex's status as the DOE's High Explosives Center of Excellence for HE manufacturing.
Construction of the $65 million facility is expected to be complete next year. The construction effort is being managed by the U.S Army Corps of Engineers and the design effort/plant support is being led by B&W Pantex/CH2MHill.
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory researchers have performed record simulations using all 1,572,864 cores of Sequoia, the largest supercomputer in the world.
The simulations are the largest particle-in-cell (PIC) code simulations by number of cores ever performed. PIC simulations are used extensively in plasma physics to model the motion of the charged particles, and the electromagnetic interactions between them, that make up ionized matter.
Sequoia, a NNSA machine, is based on IBM BlueGene/Q architecture and is the first machine to exceed one million computational cores. It is also second on the list of the world's fastest supercomputers, operating at 16.3 petaflops (16.3 quadrillion floating point operations per second). Sequoia preparing to move to classified computing in support of stockpile stewardship.

About the photo:OSIRIS simulation on Sequoia of the interaction of a fast-ignition-scale laser with a dense DT plasma. The laser field is shown in green, the blue arrows illustrate the magnetic field lines at the plasma interface and the red/yellow spheres are the laser-accelerated electrons that will heat and ignite the fuel.
The NIF Warehouse Group recently marked the 15th year without a lost work-time injury. Since warehouse operations began in 1998 at an off-site facility, the group has been involved in the receipt, storage and/or delivery of virtually every component that has gone into the construction of NIF, installation of the laser systems and the conduct of the National Ignition Campaign.
A celebration was held on March 6 at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory to recognize the group's impressive accomplishments in both safety and productivity.
About the photo:Participating in the 15-year warehouse safety celebration at Livermore were (left to right) Bob Arthur, Sandra Brereton, Barb Quivey, Kelvin Liggins, Joe Lamendola, George Bonawitz, Ed Pereira, Mike Stortz, Roger Esparza, Kevin King, Norma Hinds, Jim Turner and Valerie Roberts.

Members of the Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity rover ChemCam team will present more than two dozen posters and talks this week during the 44th Lunar and Planetary Science Conference in The Woodlands, Texas.
Since Curiosity's successful landing on Mars on Aug. 6, 2012, ChemCam has fired more than 40,000 shots at more than a thousand different locations with its high-powered laser. The ChemCam system is one of 10 instruments mounted on the Curiosity rover—a six-wheeled mobile laboratory that will roam more than 12 miles of the planet's surface during the course of one Martian year (98 Earth weeks).
The ChemCam team is comprised of researchers from Los Alamos National Laboratory and the French space agency, Centre National d'Etudes Spatiales, as well as other researchers from the U.S., France, Canada, and the United Kingdom. ChemCam operations are now commanded from centers at Los Alamos and Toulouse, France.

I'm planning my first Colorado elk hunt in august. I was going to buy the eberlestock blue widow pack. But is that to much pack for a 5 day diy hunt?
I'm planning my first Colorado elk hunt in august. I was going to buy the eberlestock blue widow pack. But is that to much pack for a 5 day diy hunt?
It looks like it will collapse pretty small to be a day pack or expand large enough to pack camp miles into the back country and weighs around 7lbs so it should work out just fine. I chose my pack to be a Kuiu Icon 6000 which weighs in around 5lbs. I can tighten it up small if I am doing day hunts and if I kill it has no problem expanding big enough to get even a bull hind quarter plus my equipment out. I see this is your first post so welcome to the forum. Im fairly new myself and have learned there are a lot of knowledgeable, helpful folks on here. Happy hunting and good luck.
I in no way, shape, or form think that is too much pack. That pack has all the features any hunter with an ambition to live out of what they can tote around on there sholders could ever want. If you look at there web site they have a video where they explain all the ins and outs of the pack and the accessories they offer for it. It sold me.
Laziness is a tool used by incompetence to build monuments of nothing
You can add on the spike duffel back for an additional 2,000 ci or so, if you desired.. I added it to my pack, and it will haul far more than I could ever carry.
I agree with Fink about the spike duffel and would HIGHLY recommend it. I got the bigger one and am very glad that I did.

Rate it out of 12?
its not bad at all. a few things i might change but overall its about as good as i think a standardized test essay grader would expect to see. the opening line is hokey as shit though and id change it. also the second sentence is ambiguous in its use of 'however'. it initially sounds like 'however a government exists' as in 'in whatever way a government exists'. i would combine the sentences with a semicolon: "... and for the people; however, a government exists ...", it reads better and shows you know how to grammatically use the different forms of 'however'.

Topic: Can knowledge be a burden rather than a benefit?
Knowledge can definitely be a large load to carry, as both literature and history have shown us time and time again. It is an immensely powerful tool that can either revolutionise or destroy society. What makes knowledge most dangerous is a human being's intention to use it to do harm - it is thus no surprise that we go to inexplicable ends to keep valuable information a secret.
In J. R. R. Tolkein's fantasy epic, "The Lord Of The Rings", one of the members of the "Fellowship of the Ring", Peregrin Took, was able to find out, through good fortune and a bit of foolishness, that the dark lord Sauron was planning an attack in the great city of Minas Tirith in Gondor. Upon this revelation, an army of elves, dwarves and men rode to Gondor to aid it. These series of events led to the "War of the Ring", the novel's climactic battle, during which the armies of Sauron were defeated. A tiny sliver of information, let loose by mere chance, was powerful enough to change the fate of Tolkein's world.
In a stark contrast, as recounted in Homer's epic "Iliad", Cassandra, the daughter of King Priam of Troy, forsaw through her gift of prophecy that the Trojan Horse was an elaborate attack by Sparta on Troy. However, because of a curse by Apollo, she was not believed and had to endure the horror of watching her city burn due to the invasion of the Spartan soldiers hiding inside the horse.
Perhaps the most glaring example of knowledge's double edged sword is scientific progress. Although technological advances have allowed modern day humans to live in an era of comfort unparalleled in the history of civilisation, it has come at a very steep price: untold devastation of our planet and the steady diminish of natural resources. It has sparked a highly furious debate on whether to retard technological advances to preserve nature or increase the pace at the expense of the environment.
It can be seen from the above examples that knowledge can always go both ways - it can create, or destroy. Knowledge, which has granted us rule over this planet is now threatening to destroy us.
Knowledge is often associated with light; it is then perhaps no coincidence that the opening words of Genesis, which documents the creation of everything in the universe, are, "Let there be light". Whether our possible demise will mirror the creation, only time will tell.
I hear Squid's final this semester is writing a paper about why white lighters are bad luck.
thanks for the critique guys!!!
your introduction is, i dunno, 'clunky.' try to combine some of your sentences into something more fluid and fancy sounding(essay graders love it when things sound fancy). make your introduction something like:
"History and literature have repeatedly shown us the duality of knowledge: both as an incredibly revolutionary and enlightening tool, and also as a heavy burden."
i can never figure out how to start and end stuff. especially if im under a time limit, i get nervous and my uncertainty is compounded. so i was reading a guide on how to write effective sat essays and it suggested to openly state the subject and your stance at the very beginning and follow on from there, which was what i half-heartedly tried here.
You can tell me all about sweatervests and chai tea and the internet. It'll be enchanting.

Summary:Beset by nightmares, Harry Potter is all too happy to escape his disturbing dreams by attending the Quidditch World Cup. But something sinister ignites the skies at the Quidditch campsite--the Dark Mark, the sign of the evil Lord Voldemort. It's conjured by his followers, the Death Eaters, who haven't dared to appear in public since Voldemort was last seen thirteen years ago--the night he murdered Harry's parents. Harry longs to get back inside the safe walls of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where Professor Dumbledore can protect him. But Dumbledore announces that Hogwarts will host the Triwizard Tournament, one of the most exciting and dangerous of the wizarding community's ma... Full Summary >>

Two days after my arrived on the forum, I am ready to post my first one map: here is thus the island where will take place the main intrigue of my future campaign for AD&D.
This island still has no name, I am thus opened to any proposal.
Attachment 55642
Any comment is welcome !


text:
During the last couple of years, MyTVShows has been having some serious issues with it's database. We ran a crowdfunding campaign so that we could afford to develop the much awaited new version of MyTVShows, with a lot of new features all of you requested and fixing the duplicated episodes problems.
Thanks to all who contributed, we managed to hire a company to rebuild the website for us (you can try it at beta.mytvshows.org) however, they didn't build the database as we wanted and it has even more bugs than the current one. Also, they didn't manage to migrate the data to the new one.
This means that we have an incomplete website because we can't import or fix the episodes database and we can't migrate your data to the new database without hiring another company to redo the database (and the scripts that update it) but all the money was spent in rebuilding the website.
I've maintained MyTVShows since 2007 because at the time there was no way to manage my episodes. Even today, I still feel that MyTVShows is way better at that than the competition. However, I lack the time and patience to continue supporting this project and as such, after you login, you can export all your MyTVShows data and use it however you like. Our friends from TVMaze already developed an importer so that you can switch to TVMaze and keep all your current data from MyTVShows.
I'd like to say I'm sorry to all those who contributed with money to build MyTVShows v2, but unfortunately it didn't go as we all expected.
In a near future I might release the source code to the community so that anyone else can pick up on this amazing project.

Hi all!
I m sorry if I m ask again for the PollingInterval for external POP3. But I m really confused! The most hints I found are related to zimbra version 5 and in version 6 all seams a bit changed. The two threads concerning version 6 I found didnt end with a final description of the soulution. So I m feeling a bit lost in zimbra universe ;)
Can someone give me some tips how to configure the system? For the first I m happy if I can activate some accounts manually. This would be very great!
Many thanks

Grindhouse (2007)
Grindhouse Synopsis
Two 75 minute horror movies written by Quentin Tarantino & Robert Rodriguez put together as a two film features. Including fake movie trailers in between both movies
Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino have teamed up on a movie by segments before, back when they were both newly famous. The movie was Four Rooms, and it was so successful that I bet unless you're a hardcore film nut (and good for you if you are), then you've probably never even heard of it. Hopefully Grind House will turn out as more than a blip. How can it not? There's a girl with a frickin machine gun for a leg in it. There's no way that can go wrong.
For Grind House, each director takes a 75-minute segment of the movie and does whatever the hell they want with it. As far as we can tell, there's no unifying theme except gore, grit, and a weird retro-style. This isn't science, it's grind house cinema in its purest form. Brains will splatter and gorehounds will giggle with glee.
Tarantino's half is called "Death Proof", and he's hired Kurt Russell to star as the driver of a car straight out of hell. Rodriguez's segment is a little more scattered, with a bigger cast running around in what looks like some sort of zombie movie. He calls his half "Planet Terror".
What we've seen so far makes Tarantino's previous gratuitous gore watermark, "The House of Blue Leaves" in Kill Bill, look like child's play. Limbs will be loosened and heads will fly. If that's your thing, get excited. If it's not, hope QT and Robert work enough of their usual sly style to justify all the bloody stumps.
