I've had a few viruses/program installs/other things that have made me decide the best option is to reinstall my operating system after backing up all of my important stuff.
Are there any downsides to reinstalling my OS? I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium on an HP Pavilion g7 and am wondering if this will at all affect my disk space/memory/performance.
I'm sorry if this looks like more of a "discussion" question, but I'm really just looking for specific answers.

Our home was built in 2004, and we are currently putting up drywall, when my husband noticed the wall was wet. It is about 3 feet up from the floor, and once the insulation has been down, the water is now running down the wall onto the floor. Is there anything we can do at home to repair the small leak, or should we call a professional to look at it? There are metal spikes in the wall, where they put the foam through? are thoes still usable?

- Leak in basement wall
poured bsmt wall with rod hole(s) leaking.....sounds that way. IF so,its best to use hydraulic cement in EACH rod hole.
what i mean about each is, you/others who have poured walls most likely have rod holes that may not be packed-sealed correctly and will leak sooner er later. Best to pack `em ALL Now Before finishing the basement!
They will usually be located approx. knee-high off the bsmt floor and about should/head high....and ALL the way around all 4 WALLS! You should make sure EACH one is properly plugged before going through the work and expense of drywall etc.
take a 'long' screwdriver and push/force it into Each rod hole. If the rod hole is plugged well the screwdriver will NOT penetrate. For each hole that isnt you will need a bucket of hydraulic cement and a 'long' dowel or some sort of 'packer' to push hyd cement all the way through/into each r/hole. you can prolly also use 'some' correct sized corks to push into and through each rod hole, or a combination of both.

Multifamily Housing: A Review of Theory and Evidence
Zietz, Emily N., The Journal of Real Estate Research
Abstract The growing importance of multifamily housing as a viable choice of residence is evidenced by the number of empirical and theoretical studies in the real estate literature. Researchers have investigated the role of this sector of the real estate market for decades. This survey article examines more than one hundred studies and categorizes them into five groups: economic and market efficiency issues; property valuation and appraisal issues; regulatory, zoning and clustering of multifamily complexes; costs, returns and rental income issues; and demand, vacancy and occupancy issues. This study seeks to provide a concise, categorical presentation of findings on issues related to the environment and performance of multifamily housing.
Multifamily housing serves a vital role in the real estate marketplace as one in four households in the United States live in multifamily homes (www.nahb.com, 2002). Many desirable features of multifamily housing as well as changing demographics have exacerbated the popularity of multifamily housing as a housing choice. The busy lifestyles of many Americans who desire freedom from the responsibility of maintenance costs and repair time, the mobility of the workforce and the convenient locations of most multifamily complexes have caused many households to elect multifamily complexes as their residences. The avoidance of property taxes and other homeowner costs is another incentive to seek multifamily housing. The National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) reports that the 26 million multifamily residents in the U.S. are similar in education and work status to all U.S. households, but they typically have fewer children to send to public schools and similarly make smaller demands of the roads and water systems (www.nahb.com, 2002). The decline of married couple households has an obvious impact on residential choice, both in terms of location such as the suburbs and tenure choice (DeLisle, 2001). For example, unmarried households may be more likely to rent rather than to own. The significance of multifamily housing as a viable housing choice is evidenced by the emphasis placed on it in the real estate and economics literature.
The definition of a multifamily house varies by organization. A multifamily home is considered by NAHB as a building containing two or more units (NAHB.com, 2002). The NAHB further estimates that today the average multifamily unit has 1,115 square feet and includes more amenities than in the past. Most new multifamily units (55%) have two or more bathrooms and 68% more have bedrooms than older properties. Congress defines multifamily housing as "any project with four or more units that includes condominiums, apartments, and single-story" (www.fairhousing.vipnet.org). This definition is used for legislative and regulatory purposes in enforcing requirements for multifamily design and construction in the Fair Housing Law of 1988. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development HUD) released a study defining a multifamily mortgage as a loan secured by a property with five or more residential units, including cooperatives as well as rental units (Segal and Szymanoski, 1998).
The economic impact of new multifamily construction is far-reaching. The impact affects a myriad of economic sectors from those who excavate and develop the site to those who design, finance and sell the finished complex. NAHB estimates that, in 2000, nearly 331,000 multifamily homes were produced in the U.S., generating 341,000 jobs (defined by worker-years of employment), $12.2 billion in wages and $6.5 billion in federal, state and local taxes (NAHB, 2000). The local economic community is affected positively through development and construction jobs, sales of materials and products needed for construction, and projects providing an incentive for the community of new residents to spend additional money locally. Over a 10-year period for an average city, the typical 100-unit multifamily project generates 582 jobs, $23. …

From [HERE] The Bellefontaine Neighbors Police Department is all-white, policing a city that's 70 percent black. Britics of police practices say racism at the root of the problem. News 4 Investigates obtained video from 4 years ago of what appeared to be a routine traffic stop: white Bellefontaine Neighbors cops pulled over a black woman driving a rental car.
An officer admitted the stop was a mistake, so the police didn't write a report, often referred to as NRN, or no report needed, but in this case one of the cops used a racial slur to describe the woman leaving town and heading north.
The audio recorded him say "nigger running north," his version of NRN. Seconds later there is laughter. News 4 Investigates emailed questions about the recording and the identity of the cops to the interim police chief and mayor, but they did not respond. [nigger means non-white person who is subject to white supremacy. nigger is what is being done to you.]
Rev. Phillip Duvall has filed two complaints to the U.S. Department of Justice about policing practices in Bellefontaine Neighbors. "Those videos speak to not just a pattern, but a culture that exists in the Bellefontaine Police Department. That has existed for a very long time" said Duvall.
In the first case, a decade ago, suspects spray-painted nigger on a Bellefontaine home owned by a St. Louis firefighter and his wife. A cross was also burned on their property. The firefighter says police didn't treat the case seriously.
Following that, the firefighter was arrested, but police would not say why. In a complaint the firefighter filed with the police department, he said officers told him he was wanted by the FBI, even though he wasn't
The firefighter said one of the cops claimed they were pranking him, and that the firefighter's arrest was just a joke.
One of the officer's identified in the victim's complaint was Jeremy Ihler, the current interim police chief of Bellefontaine Neighbors, the heir apparent to the top job and a 20-year veteran of the department.]]>
In addition, the regulation of racist speech is qualitatively different from other speech restrictions. Racism is not simply an unpopular view which requires special governmental solicitude-it is, sadly, the majority view [26]. Protection of racism and its expression in racial invectives has favored the powerful against the powerless. To provide redress for persons of color and other excluded groups is not to open the floodgates of censorship but to identify a specific group uniquely vulnerable to majoritarian oppression in need of government intervention simply to balance the scales.
The marketplace analogy also presumes that the discourse of all speech is in fact a dialogue. But racist invectives are one-sided; they neither invite nor permit response. How can the student who receives a card reading "the Ku Klux Klan is watching you" be expected to speak back? [27] Hate speech silences its victim and mars his or her response as presumptively unequal. Professor Charles Lawrence writes:
Assaultive racist speech functions as a preemptive strike. The invective is experienced as a blow, not as a proffered idea, and once the blow is struck, it is unlikely that a dialogue will follow. Racial insults are particularly undeserving of First Amendment protection because the perpetrator's intention is not to discover truth or initiate dialogue but to injure the victim. In most situations, members of minority groups realize that they are likely to lose if they respond to epithets by fighting and are forced to remain silent and submissive.[28]
Furthermore, the marketplace theory avoids the fundamental question of whether there is certain speech whose role in social decision-making is either detrimental or so marginal that it should never be countenanced. There are some ideas which simply are so repugnant to any concept of civilized society that they are not entitled to entry into the marketplace. To permit an idea to be advocated is to concede its legitimacy and to accept the possibility that it may become the governing system. There are some policies, though, whose implementation would be so unacceptable in a democratic society that their advocacy should not be permitted. [29] The Fourteenth Amendment reflects our choice not to permit absolute freedom at the expense of equality and equal personhood.]]>
He Broke his Own Spine & Neck & White Cops made "arrest without force or incident" & no cameras captured the 1 mile chase. Cops Want Injury to be in Police Van b/c there are No Cameras or Witnesses Inside Van =no proof beyond a reasonble doubt. If you beleive this nonsense you want to be deceived [MORE]. From [HERE] and [HERE] and [HERE] After investigating thmeselves a preliminary police probe has found no evidence that 25-year-old Freddie Gray was fatally injured during his videotaped arrest in Baltimore, a local ABC affiliate reported on Thursday, citing sources briefed on the police report and on findings made by the medical examiner.
The medical examiner found Gray's catastrophic injury was caused when he was slammed into back of the police transport van and apparently broke his neck. Law enforcement sources also said Gray sustained a head injury that matches bolt in the back of police van, the affiliate reported.
A bystander stated that the officers were "folding" Gray like a crab—with one officer bending Gray's legs backwards, and another holding Gray down on his neck with his knee. Another witness told the Baltimore Sun that they had witnessed Gray being beaten with batons. [MORE]
According to the police timeline, Gray was placed in a transport van within 11 minutes of his arrest, and within 30 minutes, paramedics were summoned to take Gray to a hospital.[2] The van made four confirmed stops while Gray was detained. At 8:46 a.m., Gray was unloaded in order to be placed in leg irons because police said he was "irate." A later stop, recorded by a private camera, shows the van stopped at a grocery store. At 8:59 a.m., a second prisoner was placed in the vehicle while officers checked on Gray's condition, and 27 minutes later the van made its final stop so paramedics could transport an unconscious Gray to the hospital. He was taken to the University of Maryland R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center in a coma.
The statement of charges filed by Officer Garrett Miller against Gray accused him of possessing a switchblade. Miller wrote, "The defendant was arrested without force or incident." Officers also reported "that he suffered a medical emergency during transport". The white media has suggested the possibility of a so-called "rough ride"—where a handcuffed prisoner is placed without a seatbelt in an erratically driven vehicle—as a contributing factor in Gray's injury.
In the following week, Gray was resuscitated, remained in a coma, and underwent extensive surgery in an effort to save his life. He lapsed into a coma with three fractured vertebrae, injuries to his "voice box", and his spine "80% severed" at his neck. He died on April 19, 2015, a week after his arrest. [MORE]
The Baltimore Police Department identified the six officers involved in the arrest as Lieutenant Brian Rice, Sergeant Alicia White, Officer William Porter, Officer Garrett Miller, Officer Edward Nero and Officer Caesar Goodson. The three arresting cops were white. [MORE]
Barely 100 days into her tenure as the city's chief prosecutor, State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby will soon face a momentous decision: whether to pursue criminal charges against any Baltimore police officers in the high-profile death of Freddie Gray.
The case thrusts Ms. Mosby, a 35-year-old former insurance company lawyer who had never before held elected office, into the center of a national maelstrom over race relations and police practices.
On Friday, she is expected to receive confidential findings from a police department probe into how Mr. Gray, a 25-year-old black man, sustained serious spine injuries while in police custody after his April 12 arrest. He died a week later. Six officers have been suspended with pay; none has spoken publicly.
Mosby has been a vocal supporter of the police, a stand fraught with political risk in a city with Baltimore's history of police brutality allegations. "It is my genuine belief, despite what we might all want to think, what we might want to believe, the police officers in this city are doing their jobs," she said. "I repeat, the police officers in Baltimore city are doing their jobs and taking bad guys off the street."
Several new reports put the focus on what might have happened during a roughly 40-minute ride in the back of a police transport van. Among the revelations:
• Investigators found that Gray was mortally injured in the van and not during his arrest, a Washington television station reported, citing multiple law enforcement sources.
• Police told reporters they have learned of an additional stop the van made as it was traveling to a police precinct.
• The officer driving the van believes Gray was injured before being put into the vehicle, according to a relative who gave the officer's account to CNN.
• A second prisoner, who was picked up after Gray, told investigators that he thought Gray "was intentionally trying to injure himself, according to The Washington Post.
On Thursday, a Baltimore police investigation into Gray's death found no evidence he died as the result of injuries caused during his arrest, according to CNN affiliate WJLA, citing "multiple law enforcement sources briefed on the police findings."
The medical examiner had determined Gray's death was caused by a catastrophic injury after he slammed into the back of the police transport van while inside it, "apparently breaking his neck; a head injury he sustained matches a bolt in the back of the van."
The white media has reported that it was unclear what caused Gray to slam into the back of the van and whether Gray caused the injury.
The announcement of the additional stop by the police van was treated almost as a footnote in the police news conference.
"This new stop was discovered from a privately owned camera," Deputy Commissioner Kevin Davis said without elaborating.
Many observers, though, say the revelation makes the Gray case even more suspicious -- and there has been no shortage of protesters taking to the city's streets to express their doubts about police accounts of what happened between Gray's April 12 arrest and his death.
Attorney Andrew O'Connell, who is part of the Gray family's legal team, described the police time line as a "moving target," meaning it keeps changing over time.
"What I would like to know and what we have been asking for from the beginning are the radio runs that are recorded during these stops," he said. "Whenever a police officer makes a stop, he's supposed to radio it in. We haven't seen those. Those are usually the best way to get an accurate picture of what happened during an arrest."
Pay No Attention to your own ears and just believe whatever white media & cops tell you.
An official who had been briefed on the investigation told CNN that the stops are key to determining what happened, and as O'Connell pointed out, each stop is supposed to be logged, generally by the van's driver, and that didn't happen in this case. That's why the initial police time line was missing the new stop, the official said.
Hwang Jung, owner of the market at North Fremont Avenue and Mosher Street where the newly disclosed stop took place, said officers in suits came into his store last week asking to see surveillance footage from April 12 at around 8:30 a.m. After viewing the footage, the officers gave him their number and said two more officers would come copy the footage, which happened a few hours later, Hwang said.
The footage was lost, he said, when his store was looted in the days after Gray's death. He said he couldn't be sure exactly what day the officers came by but he thought it was early in the week of April 19.
On April 24 Deputy Commissioner Davis told reporters that there had only been three stops en route to the police station: the first to put leg irons on Gray, the second "to deal with Mr. Gray" (an incident, he said, that remained under investigation) and the third to pick up a prisoner in an unrelated matter.
The new stop, Davis said Thursday, came between the first and second stops.
Source: Officer believes Gray injured during arrest
The six officers involved in the case have been suspended, and none has spoken publicly about what occurred. But a relative of one of the officers spoke to CNN on the condition of anonymity. She is related to the officer who drove the police van, but said the officer didn't request the interview.
The relative said she worries all six of the officers who encountered Gray during his April 12 arrest will be incriminated when only some might be responsible.
"Six officers did not injure this man," she said. "Six officers didn't put him in the hospital. I'm worried that instead of them figuring out who did, that six officers are going to be punished behind something that maybe one or two or even three officers may have done to Freddie Gray."
She also told CNN that the officer doesn't know how Gray was injured but said he believes it happened during the arrest. "He believes that Freddie Gray was injured outside the paddy wagon," the relative said.
She also gave an explanation of why Gray was not buckled into the police van: He appeared belligerent. "They didn't want to reach over him. You were in a tight space in the paddy wagon. He's already irate," she said.
"He still has his teeth, and he still has his saliva. So in order to seat-belt somebody you have to get in their personal space. They're not going to get in his personal space if he's already irate."
Batts, the police commissioner, has said Gray should have been buckled in. "We know he was not buckled in the transport wagon, as he should've been. No excuses for that, period," Batts said last week.
Police have said five of the six officers have been interviewed by detectives, while the sixth invoked the right to decline to be questioned. WJLA reported the van driver was the officer who has not be interviewed.
Report: Gray was trying to hurt himself, prisoner says (what prisoner? what is his name? what is he charged with? is he detained? - why does white media find him credible w/o providing any details about him?)]]>
Challenging the Baltimore Boss [expressing anger is more real than wearing a mask]. From [HERE] and [HERE] Black rioters in northwest Baltimore looted stores and pelted riot-gear-clad police with rocks on Monday, hours after Freddie Gray, the 25-year-old black man who has become the nation's latest symbol of police brutality, was laid to rest amid emotional calls for justice and peace. [expressing anger is more real than wearing a mask].
At least seven officers were injured and one was "unresponsive," Capt. J. Eric Kowalczyk of the Baltimore police told reporters. On Saturday evening Police made 34 arrests after protests turned violent as some protesters damaged several police cars and broke windows at a number of downtown businesses, officials said.
In response to the violence, Gov. Larry Hogan [white] declared a state of emergency in Baltimore and activated the National Guard. Additional state police were sent to the scene, and officers from surrounding counties were also brought in to respond.
Angry youths could be seen surrounding a police cruiser and smashing its windows in what police described as an organized attack [on property] by criminals — not demonstrators. Cars were set on fire, and stores' windows were smashed in. Heavy smoke poured out of a CVS drugstore, which had earlier been overrun by looters. Several other businesses, including a liquor store and a check-cashing shop, were also looted.[MORE]
On Saturday authorities briefly held [mostly white] baseball fans at nearby Camden Yards, where the Baltimore Orioles and Boston Red Sox were playing. [MORE] Today, the Orioles postponed Monday night's home game against the Chicago White Sox as violence spread through the city. The white media does not keep track of how many [Black] civilians have been injured, b/c that's not their thing. Their focus is on victim-cops and making white dominance and control over everything seem natural. [MORE]
Troopers Advance! 'I had toothbrush and toothpaste. Then I got my ass whipped for my benefit and yours. I learned about non-violence from comic books about Gandhi. It makes me feel morally superior. We need to teach our racist police to love us. Whites in government must lead the way.' - John Lewis on TV last month. [MORE]
Anon asks, 'If marching, picketing, and protesting was an effective strategy to achieve justice — why are we still marching, picketing, and protesting FOUR DECADES later? Why is there MORE police brutality, MORE violence, MORE drugs, MORE guns in our communities, MORE black men and women in prison, MORE black children at risk, MORE family instability, MORE out-of-wedlock births, MORE single mothers, and MORE black children dropping out of high school now than before the civil rights era?' MORE]
No Effect on White Supremacy. Raul Hilberberg notes that prior to the Nazi extermination of the Jews, the Jews made various "alleviation attempts" in their failed resistance to white supremacy. Under the heading of alleviation are included petitions, protection payments, ransom arrangements, anticipatory compliance, relief, rescue, salvage, reconstruction-- in short, all those activities which are designed to avert danger, or, in the event that force has already been used, to diminish its effects.
The Jewish posture in the face of destruction [during the Holocaust] was not shaped on the spur of the moment. The Jews of Europe had been confronted by force many times in their history, and during these encounters they had evolved a set of reactions that were to remain remarkably constant over the centuries. "Preventive attack, armed resistance, and revenge were almost completely absent in Jewish exilic history." [MORE]
Sound familar - reminding you about Blacks and Latinos in the U.S.? Of course, there will be no armed revolution with racists. Armed conflict with the billion dollar white supremacy/racism war machine is the stuff of imagined fantasy [suicide] - or yet another way to avoid really dealing with white supremacy [your problems]. A violent reaction is still just a reaction and that is the problem.
"You are powerless so anything can overpower you." [Non-violence has made Black people just like butter]
Instead of responding to racism Black people simply react to it. 'To react means you are acting unconsciously. Somebody is manipulating you. Somebody says something, does something, and you react. The real master of the situation is somebody else. Somebody comes and insults you and you react, you become angry. Somebody comes and praises you and you smile and you become happy. Both are the same. You are a slave and the other knows how to push your buttons. You are behaving like a machine. You are an automaton, not a human being yet. A plaything in the hands of others.' [MORE] and [MORE].
Whatsoever happens around you, catches you. You are not powerful. Everything else is more powerful than you. Anything changes you. Your mood, your being, your mind, depend on other things. Objects influence you. [MORE]. Non-white people cannot possibly neutralize white supremacy in this constant state of reaction. [MORE].
A new consciousness is needed to create a new culture. Your consciousness can become an instrument of power. Really, you are politically powerless to do anything about this situation - this White over Black system of domination and control. Your consciousness is the only real power non-whites can presently obtain. But right now your consciousness is a utility of white supremacy/racism and it works in service of white domination. With this collective 'reality-avoidance' consciousness, self preservation tactics such as boycotts against white supremacy or the collective power of withdrawal are not viable at all.
It is true that "racism is a power group dynamic." And this is a two way street. Amos Wilson explained, "power ultimately has to do with a relationship between people, and the white man's so-called power, is to a great extent based upon the nature of the relationship he has with the Black man. We empower him by the nature of our own behavior and attitudes as a people. He cannot be what he is unless we are, what we are. To a good extent, the European is our creation. If we look at our behavior, we will see that to a good extent, it is our behavior, our values, our consciousness, the kind of personalities we've established in ourselves, our taste, our desires and needs; that maintains the European in its position."
You cannot change this situation but you can change yourself. If we change our consciousness then our relationship with white people will never be the same. One by one, this situation must change if we change - if we become non participants in the system of white supremacy. It will be another Rosa Parks moment. Her mental participation with racism/white supremacy stopped, she dropped out - in order for this racist power relationship to work it required her voluntary compliance or belief in it or programmed mind to accept, to do this and that. This confrontation is mental. The revolution is in your mind, against your own mind. How can you change your consciousness?
Sentencing Guidelines Apply to Racist Suspects? Like the recent Wash Post study found, white cops are routinely not punished for brutalizing non-white people. Even when their conduct has resulted in a monetary award of legal damages, cops rarely are held personally liable - they pay nothing, the Government pays. Here, after prosecutors asked for a 30 year jail sentence, Jon Burge was sentenced to only 4. He was then released early after serving only 3 yrs. He is still collecting a $3000 a month pension and the City of Chicago continues to be bound by court order to pay his legal fees. [MORE] In other words, like Donald Sterling who hit the jackpot after his racist episode, Mr. Burge is actually undercover rewarded by other whites for his racist acts.
From [HERE] Whenever white Chicago Police commander Jon Burge needed a confession, he would walk into the interrogation room and set down a little black box, his alleged victims would later tell prosecutors. The box had two wires and a crank. Burge, they alleged, would attach one wire to the suspect's handcuffed ankles and the other to his manacled hands. Then, they said, Burge would place a plastic bag over the suspect's head. Finally, he would crank his little black box and listen to the screams of pain as electricity coursed through the suspect's body.
"When he hit me with the voltage, that's when I started gritting, crying, hollering. … It [felt] like a thousand needles going through my body," Anthony Holmes told prosecutors during a 2006 investigation into Burge. "And then after that, it just [felt] like, you know—it [felt] like something just burning me from the inside, and, um, I shook, I gritted, I hollered, then I passed out."
Holmes, who eventually gave what he says was a false confession and was convicted of murder in 1973, is one of as many as 120 African-American men on Chicago's South Side who were allegedly tortured by Burge between 1972 and 1991.
Though prosecutors accumulated evidence against Burge they thought "sufficient to establish guilt beyond a reasonable doubt," the statute of limitations prevented prosecution. Burge instead went to jail for perjury later, for denying his role under oath.
On Tuesday, Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel announced the establishment of a $5.5 million fund for these victims. The compensation would "close this book, the Burge book on the city's history," Emanuel said according to the Chicago Tribune. [This simpleton can close whatever is he wants to close.]

text: Hello, Is it correct that os_get_runtime_executable_path is only used to get a path for the current process's runtime for SAVE-LISP-AND-DIE's :EXECUTABLE option? If so, the patch below makes os_get_runtime_executable_path do something which can be sufficient for this purpose on NetBSD. (Explanation of "can be sufficient": NetBSD doesn't provide a way to get a process-independent name for the current process's executable, but when /proc is mounted, /proc/curproc/file, which presents as an ordinary file, serves as a name for the executable within the process. If os_get_runtime_executable_path is supposed to provide a name that can be used by other processes, then this won't do. Finally, since /proc is not mounted by default, the routine tries to tell the user what's up.)

"Serenity with a View" Second Valley by lovinoz
Second Valley Travel Guide: 4 reviews and 26 photos
We went to Second Valley for a weekend in early April and hired a big house (Periwinkles) just down the street from the caravan park.
SV itself is really tiny, not worthy of being called a town, more just a cluster of houses near the jetty along with a caravan park. the caravan park has a good reputation since my husband (from the barossa valley) and many friends have stayed there in the past and enjoyed the experience. the caravan park is a stones throw away from the jetty and has a tiny store (shoe-box sized) with fish & chips, canned sardines, bait etc.
Jetty & Beach
The jetty and surrounding beaches are fantastic for fishing and snorkelling. Theres a small peninsula near the jetty with big rocks that you can hike over and do some rock fishing. my brother in law said he saw a seal over there. from the jetty we saw a big (1.5 meter wingspan) eagle ray lingering around the jetty. i would have jumped in to snorkel with it if it had been a couple degrees warmer. ;) if you are into fishing, don't expect huge fish or quantity. we caught a few squid, one cuttlefish, couple tommies and a leatherjacket (this is with 5 lines in the water for 4+ hours). maybe its better at a different time of year. didnt matter cuz we were there for fun.
The View
The house we rented is a couple streets up from the jetty, which means up the hill, and we had a stunning view of the ocean, hills and could even see Adelaide off in the distance! See my accommodation tip below for more info about the house.
Scenery on the way
Second valley is about a 1.5 hour drive from adelaide, with the last 30 minutes of driving along a very curvy but scenic road through some hills and partly along the coastline with great views of the ocean.
Myponga Reservoir
The photo to the left is of Myponga Reservoir which is well worth the detour off the main road to have this view during daylight!
Make sure you click on the thumbnail to properly see the gorgeous view.
Groceries & Petrol
There are a couple small towns (normanville and yankalilla) about 20kms away from SV that have a grocery store and petrol station etc.
Rapid Bay
If you travel 5-10km south of SV, you can visit Rapid Bay which has a really long jetty, currently closed for renovation. but if you walk north along the beach near the jetty, it will lead to a huge cave that is really impressive. bring a torch if you plan to do a bit of spulunking. ;)
CLICK HERE for more photos of Rapid Bay.
Wind Farm
There is an incredible wind farm that is worth checking out ... you can catch glimpses of the windmills on your drive down to Rapid Bay. if you go a bit farther south of Rapid Bay (back on the main road), look for a sign on the left side of the road for a church tellign you to turn right. turn right here, drive up the hill, past the church and follow the road for a couple KMs until you are nearly underneath one of the 23 windmills ... there is a big sign with info about the wind farm right alongside the road. some signs along the road say local traffic only but we considered ourselves local and went anyways. definitely worth a visit. :) See the photo to the left to get an idea of what the wind farm looks like, although this does not do it justice. Click on the thumbnail to appreciate it more.
CLICK HERE for more photos from the wind farm.
Kangaroo Island
Not much farther south of there is Cape Jervis, launching point for the Kangaroo Island ferry (50 minute trip on the ferry).
Deep Creek Conservation Park
A little bit east of Cape Jervis is Deep Creek Conservation Park, which is spectacular for hiking, fishing and observing wildlife. See my Rapid Bay VT page for a couple photos from Deep Creek from eons ago when we went there last. its a good place to see lots of roos in the wild fairly up close. I think Deep Creek is about 20km from SV.
- Pros:Great views and very serene
- Cons:No night life, limited choices for food so bring your own
- In a nutshell:you have to see it to believe it's beauty! :)

University of Oklahoma professor wins Emmys for project with students, donates them to OU
NORMAN — By itself, there's nothing especially remarkable about a major university winning an award. When that award is an Emmy, though, people tend to take notice.
Mike Boettcher, a war correspondent and faculty member in the University of Oklahoma's Gaylord College of Journalism and Mass Communication, brought two of the awards to OU.
Boettcher won the awards for "American Valor: Home of the Brave," a news package that focused on the war in Afghanistan. The package was a part of Afghan 101, a cooperative venture between the college and ABCNews.com.
In the project, Boettcher and his son, Carlos Boettcher, spent a year embedded with U.S. troops in Afghanistan, delivering lectures to the college's students via Skype.
This marks the first time a university professor also serving as a war correspondent has won an Emmy, OU officials said. At a Tuesday news conference, Boettcher announced he was donating the Emmy statues to the college.
"These aren't my awards," he said. "I didn't win these on my own. I won them with the help of a lot of people."
Praise for students
OU President David Boren recognized Boettcher as well as the students who had participated in the project. The project gave students valuable insight into the field in which they'll eventually be working, he said.
Journalism plays a key role in making society function, Boren said.
It informs citizens and gives them the tools they need to participate in government. Because that role is a critical one, he said, it's important that the next generation of journalists are prepared for the responsibility.
"You are doing an exceptional job," he said. "I really honor what you do."
During the project, Boettcher and his son also sent back video and photos, which students used to produce stories focusing on the war's effect on those left behind. Under the guidance of journalism professor John Schmeltzer, students spoke with families of deployed troops, including many they interviewed during a trip to Fort Campbell, Ky.
Boettcher said he recognized the effect the project had on the students. One returned home from Fort Campbell having interviewed a woman whose husband had recently been killed in combat.
Interviewing people who had been affected by the war was a good experience for the students, Boettcher said. In an era when fewer than 1 percent of citizens serve in the military, many Americans don't understand the gravity of war.
That lack of understanding makes it easier for the nation to wage war without taking account of the consequences, he said.
"All of the students came back changed and engaged — not just as journalists, but as citizens of this country," he said. "That, to me, was the greatest gift I could ever receive."

The Lynn Haven Post Office was evacuated for a while Thursday after a suspicious looking package was left in the lobby area.
Police evacuated the building and the adjacent parking lot.
It was later determined the package contained personal belongings and was left at the Post Office by mistake by the owner.
One it was cleared up, it was back to business for the rest of the day.

He is quite entertaining when he talks so it is surprising when he says that he has been getting offers for horror shows more these days. Out of the many that he has shot for, he is getting attention for his current on air character Daara Koyla in SAB TV's Pritam Pyaare Aur Woh. Here he talks about his role and how his kids too are his fans now.
Rajesh tells us how he gets into the get up of a vampire, "When we started the show I used to take lot of time to get ready and then there was continuity to be maintained but now I take only 3 minutes to get my hair done." We hear you use egg whites to keep your hair stiff, "Yes, my make-up guy came up with this suggestion of using egg whites on my hair to make it appear stiff and it stays that way for 24 to 30 hours. After some hours, it does become a bit powderish but if you spray water then it retains that form for long. And the best part is that egg whites do not stink so I am happy to use a natural product like egg on my hair. In fact due to this natural conditioner my hair has become softer than earlier. I use the vampire teeth only when required since otherwise I cannot speak with the vampire teeth on as my mouth stays wide open."
Surprisingly, Rajesh who has a funny personality and has done comic roles earlier is suddenly getting horror shows. Telling us about it he says, "I have been getting bhoot roles for some time now. On the upcoming Epic channel too I have already shot for 40 episodes of a sitcom where I play Yamraj. On POGO, I did Bhoot Raja aur Rony which were 2 telefilms in one year. And now this so I feel I am living more in the shamshaan (cemetery) than at home."
Rajesh who is married to Madhavi Chopra Kumar who too was an actress earlier has two sons who are eager to see their father in his role, "My sons who are 6 years and 2 year old like me in the show. While the younger one doesn't know fear at his age and enjoys watching me, the older one was scared seeing me so I took him with me for the shoot and showed him how I get transformed from my normal looks to a vampire - Daara Koyla!"
We are sure that despite his horror avatar with his comic sense, Rajesh must have kept his kids in splits even on the sets!

Instead of exchanging gifts with one another this year, the fourth graders at Southside Elementary are shipping their gifts to Africa.
"The students decided they wanted to get gifts for the kids (in Malawi) instead of each other," Southside teacher Judy Clevinger said last Wednesday afternoon.
When deciding on a "different" Christmas exchange, Clevinger said the fourth grade teachers looked no further than Clevinger's son, Jacob.
A junior at Asbury College, Jacob spent over two months in Malawi, Africa, last summer.
It's the end of 2009 and with that comes the declaration of the Top 10 stories of the year.
Inside this week's issue, those stories are revealed in our first Yearbook.

Molding a Strong Heat Stress Prevention Program
Smith, S. L., Occupational Hazards
Standing on top of the sun. That's what Sue Walker compares to working in a steel mill, and she should know. Walker is the safety and health coordinator at Crucible Specialty Metals Division, Syracuse, N.Y., and she walks around a steel mill every day.
Not only is rolling stainless steel hot work, said Walker, but it requires some employees to wear a substantial amount of personal protective equipment and clothing which protects them from bums and high-heat exposure but increases their susceptibility to heat-related illness.
Temperatures in the hottest sections of the mill hover around 150 degrees in the summer time. It is standard practice for employees working with the molten steel to wear long thermal underwear under their clothing, Kevlar or leather (for welders) gloves, respirators, heat-tempered hard hats with gold reflective face shields, safety shoes or boots, safety glasses and hearing protection. The employee who works in the melt shop where the metal is heated to 2,800 degrees and poured into ingots wears an aluminized full-body suit, including special boots.
"He looks like a spaceman," said Carmen Louise, director of safety communication and training. "He has to look directly into the ladle (which pours the steel), which is about 2,700 degrees, to make sure it's not blocked. The heat is unreal. I stood 25 feet in front of the ladle and took a picture and couldn't stay more than a minute or two; it was too hot."
Employees in the melt shop wear flame-retardant jackets and pants to protect them from flying molten steel, said Louise. Some employees also wear cooling vests and use cold pack inserts in their hard hats, which help keep them cooler, but add additional weight. (Crucible provides employees with protective equipment and clothing.)
"We have a really great all-around safety program here at Crucible and protecting against heat stress is just one aspect of it," said Walker. "It includes PPE, engineering and administrative controls, employee training, and encouragement from management to try new things to help employees stay as comfortable as possible in a hot environment."
If You Can't Take the Heat...
It takes a special kind of employee to work in a steel mill, said Walker.
"If heat is a problem for potential employees, they usually don't apply here," said Walker. "Many of our workers have been here for years and the heat doesn't bother them like it might someone who has never been inside a steel mill. These guys and women are tough."
Crucible employs 800 workers in 20 different departments. Jobs range from office and management positions to laboratory workers to the men and women who pour, mold, finish and ship what will eventually become bars of valve steel. The only "finished" product made at Crucible is a tool bit.
The mill itself, which includes two melt shops where the highest temperatures are found, is 120 years old. Although the buildings are old, this mill houses some state-of-the-art equipment and updates which help employees keep their cool.
"Safety and engineering work closely together when equipment is purchased or updated to ensure exposures are reduced whenever possible. Whatever we can do together to make a safer workplace - reduce noise and heat, enclose or guard equipment, shield workers - we do it," said Walker. "I network with other safety professionals and do as much research as possible to find the newest technology and products to protect employees from heat and workplace hazards. Management encourages me to try new things."
The pulpits in the rolling mills feature air conditioning and bullet-proof glass which is thick enough to help reflect heat, said Louise. The drivers' compartments on the cranes used to trans- port the steel from one area to another are also fitted with air conditioning.
Wherever possible, large fans are brought in to work areas to circulate the air and cool employees. …

I have a single server that is also a domain controller in a cabinet, there are no other servers attached to its domain. I've reset the time in the BIOS (from what I recall) and in Windows to the current correct time, over a period of a few days the time will be off by about 20 minutes.
Since it's a DC it shouldn't be getting time over NTP, correct?
Does this mean the issue could be with the BIOS battery? The server is almost 4 years old and the CMOS battery is original.

EDitor's UPDATE: Positive rating and recognition has been given to Ashley Bridget for its commitment to excellence in customer service.
Ripoff Report's discussions with Ashley Bridget have uncovered an ongoing commitment by the company to total customer satisfaction. This means that Ashley Bridget customers can expect that Ashley Bridget will work towards finding a mutually satisfactory resolution to any complaints or concerns. Ashley Bridget listens carefully to customer concerns and sees them as an opportunity to learn from past mistakes and become more efficient as a brand.
A top executive of Ashley Bridget told us that Ashley Bridgets personal business philosophy is based on the premise that "strives to add value in its services as they understand that a successful business model is based on value-added services, and customer care". [continued below]....
The information provided in this report is based on comments made by President Scott Hutchison during an onsite inspection held by a third party verification company with no biases toward Ashley Bridget.
Ripoff Report Verified™ .. part of Ripoff Report Corporate Advocacy Business Remediation & Customer Satisfaction Program.A program that benefits the consumer, assures them of complete satisfaction and confidence when doing business with a member business..
Ashley Bridget is an online fashion brand that sells accessories to the demographic of women in their 20's. Their vision is to be in the top five accessory brands. They want to revolutionize buying accessories online in a virtual hand, as if you were buying them in a store.
Their target market consumer is trendy women, mainly in their 20's, who are fashion savvy.
They have restricted their sales solely to an online market, they sell through their website. They plan to eventually have them in stores but right now it's just online. They accept payment through major credit cards or PayPal.
If a customer wants a refund they will pay for a return mailer and will send another item of equal value. If the customer is extremely upset, they will refund in full including the shipping charge. They outline their shipping and return policy on their website but their bottom line is to make the customer as happy as possible.
If a customer has a complaint they can contact their office by phone between 10:00 am-6:00 pm Eastern Standard Time, or they can engage in a live chat or email. They intend to respond within 24 hours and their support staff is trained to respond as fast and efficiently as possible.
During the onsite interview President Scott Hutchison was asked to describe a specific situation in which a customer was not satisfied with the level of service they received: "A customer received a bracelet that was damaged in transit. After receiving an email and before responding, it was sent to be received the next day along with a 10% refund for the customer's trouble. Later, she told us that it was the best customer service she had ever received online."
Ashley Bridget strongly believes that they are the safest way to buy online when it comes to independent fashion stores. They maintain that they have the best online return/refund in the business. They aim to never be behind or ahead of the fashion trends so that they can ensure they are at the top of the fashion trends.
In an effort to honor their commitment to "do whatever it takes" to make things right with the consumer they have invested a considerable amount of time and capital into hiring intelligent and responsible support representatives at a volume high enough to answer and complete inquiries faster than anyone else. They have developed a system to clearly communicate to customers when products are sold out or backordered. When they have enough items in stock, they guarantee that the item will be shipped by 5:00 PM EST the next business day or it is free. They clearly label the accessories on the product pages that are eligible for guaranteed shipping.
"Mr. Hutchison was asked to explain which current internal processes and procedures need improvements within their company: "Originally, Ashley Bridget grew too fast and there was a period of three weeks when we did not have enough staff to answer inquiries in a timely manner. To fix this, we hired 10 people for our support staff to handle customer concerns and questions. Also, our shipping partners could not handle the volume of orders and it took between two to three weeks to ship orders. We found a far more powerful shipping partner who could handle out volume that could ship within 24 hours, or one business day.
In a leadership role within his company, Mr. Hutchison advises his employees to "do whatever it takes" to make the client happy, stating, "At this point, I tell them to make the customer as happy as possible and forget about the costs. That means they have permission to ship a replacement to them, even though it means a loss. Happy customer, healthy company."
Ashley Bridget is thrilled to be a part of Ripoff Reports Corporate Advocacy Business Remediation and Customer Satisfaction Program and to have the chance to show the world how committed they are to making people happy. They believe that Ripoff Report is an excellent source of power for the consumer to comment on errors that companies make and have their complaints dealt with efficiently and quickly. They think that a company like Ripoff Report takes the power out of the hands of the brands and puts it in those of the consumer and forces companies to do all they can to keep the customer happy.

"If you are not 100% satisfied with your purchase, you can return your order to the warehouse for a full refund (Returns must be in the state you received them, and in the original packaging) or receive another accessory of your choice that will be shipped to you free of charge. We believe that in order to have the best possible online shopping experience, our customers should not have to pay for return shipping. So if for whatever reason you're not happy with your purchase, just go through our easy return process to print out a free return label - your shipping costs are prepaid.
Full refunds are given as long as a return request is communicated in under 15 days of receiving the order. Free exchanges are given as long as a return request is communicated in under 30 days of receiving the order.
If your return or exchange request is beyond this time frame, please contact our support team, and they'll do everything in their power to help you out."

Ashley Bridget Ashley Bridget Jewelry Possible Scam or Rip Off Online Merchandising/Facebook Ads Internet
Ashley Bridget online jewelry store - possible online scam/Facebook Ad scam or just extremely poor customer service!
I placed my order online on July 21, 2013; today is August 7, 2013 and my order is in limbo. I sent out an email two days ago requesting an update to my order - NO RESPONSE. They have no address and no phone number, just an email address.
So I've either been scammed or they have extremely poor customer service!
Hopefully someone will get back to me about my order - maybe this post will help. In any event, I would not recommend purchasing from this company. Who runs a business without fully disclosing their contact information anyway?
I'm posting on my FB page too. Sigh.

Finally received an answer from the company reps. They're really friendly people, but business is in its infancy. They had several mitigating factors causing the delay in shipments and delay in responding to people's emails. The owner personally guaranteed that they would reach out to customers and update their website about delays. They are working as diligently as possible as several orders are on back shipment.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

HOUSTON (AP) — Houston coach Gary Kubiak says the New Orleans Saints will give the Texans a valuable look at a defense they don't see much in practice anymore.
The Saints visit Reliant Stadium on Saturday night, marking the fourth straight year the teams have met in the preseason. The teams, from cities separated by only 350 miles, have also held joint practices in years past, but opted not to this year because of the lockout.
The Texans have been learning the 3-4 scheme under new defensive coordinator Wade Phillips. Kubiak says the unit will benefit from facing the Saints' 4-3 alignment.
Houston beat the New York Jets, another team that plays a 3-4 defense, in its preseason opener.

Money as art ~ or faux money as art, rather. Spanish illustrator Xavi Garcia created his stunning 'Handmade' banknote illustration as a reaction to soulless digital design. "This note pretends to remind the viewer the amount of work, hours, patience and love that artisans put into the handicrafts they produce and stress how valuable they are, replacing currency for the amount of time spent working on it (3 months were given for this project). Entirely drawn by hand, using different printing techniques, it features security measures common in banknotes such as watermarks, tactile elements, see-through images and invisible UV ink." On the front it says "Tempus Neminem Manet" meaning "Time waits for no one" and on the back it reads "Tempus Fugit" meaning "Time Flees." As you stare at his work, it makes you wonder about the world it may have come from… and i love the concept of time as currency. After all ~ Time is Money, right? How nice would it be to be paid with one of these 3 month notes? How would you spend it? See the details up close on the next page…
What a gorgeous week of post's we've had at NOTCOT.org. This week has a little bit of everything from flaming ipads to electric wellies. Click on the individual images to find out more about each post.
Stopped by the opening of Laguna Art Museum's Art Shack ~ a large group show of artists creating literally "art shacks" for people to explore! Absolute favorite of course was Shag's (originally made in 2009, but it looks like some newer art pieces displayed) ~ an adorably cool scaled down mid century modern home complete with those kid sized versions of design classics (panton chairs, eames chairs, etc!) ~ that you can actually wander in and out of! And feel very Alice in wonderland in it! It would basically be the coolest backyard "playhouse" ever if we were kids… take a peek at more pics on the next page!
Unbelievably awesome. When my favorite crayon carver, Diem Chau, emailed me with pics last night of the latest project with W+K for Nike… for World Cup… the press kit for Write the Future campaign…. i was instantly amazed and jealous of all the lucky folks that got one. Such a beautiful piece of art. Incredibly packaged. Awesome idea. All the soccer stars are personified in crayon carvings! Huge thanks and congrats to Diem and W+K on an awesome project (and for providing the pics!) and see close ups on the next page…

Here's a new Dear NOTCOT from Justine who popped by the Central St. Martin's Pop Up Shop in London for us! Some fun finds, especially the lamp that goes skeletal when turned on! See all her pics on the next page!
On my way home on Friday, I dropped by Central St. Martin's Pop Up Shop on Clerkenwell Road. It was buzzing with tutors DJing, students mingling and beers flowing. Lots of great pieces to snap up before Monday! The week-long pop up shop under the name '2060' runs for one week (ending June 7th) and showcases work from second year graphic design students from the Saint Martins College of Art's BA Graphic Design course. The shop is the final stage of a 6 week project, which looks at manufacturing as an integral part to the design process. Take a peek at a few quick snaps at some of the items that caught my eye on the next page!

New sponsored content series ~ this time Las Vegas is letting me rant and share some vegas awesomeness NOTCOT style! As usual, my pics, my story, they just give me an excuse to talk Vegas.. and share some of my favorite bits!
Who doesn't find the "Truisms" of text artist, Jenny Holzer, intriguing… especially when paired with a huge Las Vegas drive way… like at the Aria at CityCenter? The Las Vegas Sun highlighted a few good ones (out of around 200 programed into the LED display art) - "It's important to stay clean on all levels." "Overeating should be criminal." "If you live simply, there is nothing to worry about." "It's not good to operate on credit." - also love the logic they highlighted here - "Holzer was tapped by Michele Quinn, whom MGM Mirage tasked with overseeing its ambitious public art effort. Quinn describes herself as "kind of a groupie" of Holzer's, and says she thought such an LED installation could be the best use of such an awkward, dark space as this lower-level valet area. People would be waiting around anyway, so why not give them something to look at — and think about — as they departed?" So true! And as i stood there plastered against the glass window, a herd of frat boys behind me lining up for the club, i just couldn't stop reading them…if only i'd known there were 200 at the time, i wouldn't have felt so bad leaving in the midst of trying to read them all! I may have been there forever! Take a peek at a few closeups and some youtube videos i found on the next page!
P.S. Apparently the very fun Twitter handle @JennyHolzer is a fake! But the real Jenny Holzer has been quoted not to mind…
Dominic Wilcox's Pre-Handshake Handshake Device was part of one of my favorite shows at NY Design Week, Uncomfortable Conversations. The Design Glut ladies curated an incredible show of pieces that veered on the art/installation side of design, and perhaps the most fun was the amount of interaction visitors had with pieces, and truly, the incredible conversations which naturally ensued.
While his piece is set up to be that baby step for when "A traditional handshake can sometimes be just too big a step for those entrenched in their dislike of the other." ~ luckily i recruited the happily married Sean and Anna of Sub-Studio to have a little fun with his piece, and they tried having a thumb war, doing secret handshakes, making shaka signs and more… Additionally, how beautiful are the photographs he has of the device? Large limited edition photographic prints in collaboration with photographer David Sykes will soon be available! See more pics on the next page!
What a week we've had! This week's NOTCOT.org roundup features a bit of everything, from ABC furniture to jumpology. To find out more about each of the week's picks, click on the images.

3am - Going through hundreds of pictures ~ and not sure where to even start, or if i should just curl up and get some sleep, somehow these two pictures from within hours of each other felt like they needed to be shown together. While separately they grabbed me, together they felt inseparable.
Found on a billboard in Noho ~ "Material possessions won't make you happy, or maybe they will." And then riding the elevator "home" to my room at the Gramercy Park Hotel ~ "Help Is On The Way" ~ instead of my floor, every time i step in, i want to press that. Where is the "Everything will be ok." button? Feel free to see both far away and close ups on the next page. Interpret as you will!
It's 3am. I'm tired, but i felt like i needed to share before the backlog built up and my excitement wandered off… what a day its been, so much #OBJECTHUNT fun ~ so many supportive folks having fun at design week this year between workaholicking. And between it all i stumbled upon Mr. Brainwash's takeover of the boarded up construction ~ mixed with scrawls about what a hack he is ~ only to turn across the street to see all his art also inside at a huge gallery show… and it was filled with classic designer chairs… so, i couldn't help myself, the mix of spray paint art, pithy statements and quotes, elephants-kangaroos-snoopy made of tires, a life size NY taxi packaged in matchbox packaging with a toys r us price tag… so say what you will about his work ~ i just had to take and share some pics! See it all on the next page…
Another stunning week on NOTCOT.ORG means this roundup is especially gorgeous. This week's picks include beautiful exteriors, interiors, artwork and more. Click on the images to find out more.

This is a very good question and one that needs a lot of consideration. Key person insurance is designed to provide the business with a lump sum payment should the insured life suffer one of a defined list of critical illnesses(optional) or pass away. The aim of the cash benefit is to keep the business on the straight and narrow during these difficult times.
The value you place on losing a key person should reflect the loss in profits to the business. For instance the key person cover might equal the amount of profit typically generated by a sales director. Additional costs that may well occur can also be included such as the costs associated with finding, hiring and training another individual to the same standard.
For any organisation considering business protection it is important to ensure any provisions made are adequate. We have a range of calculators which we can work though with you to help you choose a suitable level of cover for your key members of staff.
We would love to hear from you, whether you are enquiring about our services, a career, or a business partnership.

The South Health District is encouraging women and young adults to have their breasts checked regularly.
They recommend doing a self-breast exam monthly and having a clinical exam once a year.
More than 200,000 women every year are diagnosed with breast cancer, and about 40,000 of them will die from the disease, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
"Early detection saves lives everyday," said Courtney Sheeley, with the South Health District. " Women can also make sure they're living healthy, limiting their alcohol intake, knowing their family history is very important in case someone in their family has had cancer before."
For more information about breast exams and qualifying for a free mammogram, contact the South Health District at (229) 333-5257.

Building and Adapting Theories
"As an important part of my project, I'd really like to devise a theory, or at least I'd like to adapt one, but I don't know how to go about it."
As already noted, the word theory, as we use it throughout this book, is a proposal about (a) what variables are important for understanding some phenomenon and (b) how those variables are related to each other. In previous chapters we have distinguished between (a) classification systems and (b) theories that involve propositions about what causes events to turn out as they do. However, in the present chapter we subsume both of those matters under the topic building and adapting theories and then differentiate between the two by calling the former classificatory theories and the latter explanatory theories. The two can be considered theoretical matters because both fit our generic definition. Each concerns variables important for understanding some phenomenon, and each proposes how those variables relate to each other. However, the two have different functions, as reflected in the second part of the definition--how variables relate to each other. Classificatory theories (classification systems, typologies, taxonomies) consist of categories into which phenomena (people, institutions, events) can be placed so their likenesses and differences can be compared and contrasted. Explanatory theories consist of proposals about how phenomena interact to produce an observed outcome. Thus, classificatory schemes emphasize comparison, while explanatory schemes emphasize cause. You may wish to create a new--or to revise an existing--classificatory or explanatory theory as part of your thesis or dissertation. Your theory may even be the central focus of the project.
The fourfold purpose of this chapter is to suggest (a) how to identify the need for a new or revised theory, (b) how to devise a classificatory theory, (c) how to devise an explanatory theory, and (d) how to revise an existing theory.
