Hi All,
I'm using the Physics package, which enables GR calculations, ie defining metrics and tensor algebra.
Was just curious if it were possible to add a perturbation to the metric when calculating Ricci and Christoffels.
I would like something like
g_[] = g1_[mu,nu] + h[mu,nu]
And then do a calculation like,
I know this would be possible if I define everything and re-write the calculations for calculating Ricci, i.e
Define(g1[mu,nu], h[mu,nu]);
and the proceed with GR calculations to find Ricci, however was hoping there was an easier way to do this.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks guys.
Good evening all,
How can I plot a straightline with points
LogAt = - 0.097, -0.20, -0.22, -0.25, -0.30 ,-0.40, -0.45, -1.01 and
t = 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120, 140
Where LogA[t] on y-axis and t on x-axis.
I have try this before .
plot([[0,-0.097], [20,-0.20], [40,-0.22], [60,-0.25], [80,-0.30], [100,-0.40], [120,-0.45], [140,-1.01]]);
Greetings, all!I'm extremely new to Maple T.A., and I am building tools for my math department since I'm the only one with a programming background. I have a generic question, and sincerely apologize if I've missed it being answered elsewhere. It's a case that will probably come up multiple times for us, so I was hoping to find an answer =).
I have a problem where students are adding exponents of like bases. As an example, you get questions that look like this.
When the coefficient is 1, I'd like to accept a blank answer in the first response area as a correct solution. Is there an easy (or less easy =) way of making this happen?
Thanks in advance!
I came across this interesting image restoration in the Mathematica community http://community.wolfram.com/groups/-/m/t/873396 and wondered how this could be applied in Maple.
Hello everyone,
I have an issue that I don't know how to solve.I would like to plot a part of a surface that is enclosed by another surface. I wrote a proc() function with an if statement and when the statement is statisfienied I returned desired function. The roblem is that if statement gets ploted as well..Here is my proc()
yield := proc (sigma__x, sigma__y, tau__xy, sigma__cx, sigma__cy, f__45, f__cx, f__cy, tau__u, f__tx, f__ty, alpha)
if eval(evalf(f__r(sigma__x, sigma__y, tau__xy, f__tx, f__ty, alpha)) < 0) then
return f__h(sigma__x, sigma__y, tau__xy, sigma__cx, sigma__cy, f__45, f__cx, f__cy, tau__u)
else 9999999
end if
end proc;
Here is my plot request:
Explore(implicitplot3d('yield(sigma__x, sigma__y, tau__xy, sigma__cx, sigma__cy, f__45, f__cx, f__cy, tau__u, f__tx, f__ty, alpha)' = 0, sigma__x = -10 .. 10, sigma__y = -10 .. 10, tau__xy = 0 .. 10, style = surfacecontour, numpoints = 100000, axes = normal), parameters = [f__cx = 0.1e-3 .. 10, f__cy = 0.1e-3 .. 10, f__45 = 0.1e-3 .. 10, sigma__cx = 0.1e-3 .. 10, sigma__cy = 0.1e-3 .. 10, tau__u = 0.1e-3 .. 10, f__tx = 0.1e-3 .. 10, f__ty = 0.1e-3 .. 10, alpha = 0.1e-3 .. 10]
and this is what i get:
The grainy surface should not be there. If it's not possible to remove it, it would be alright that surface would be smooth. Any ideas?
Maple evaluates:
but when I ask:
Maple will verify sin(u)/cos(u)=tan(u) but beyond that it does not seem to work too well. I suspect this has something to do with verify being a "semi-boolean" function but searching the docs for what that mean returns no results. It may mean "I am unable to decidee". But how should I know? :-(
This is Maple 2016.1 on Windows. There is a post on verifying very simple identities.
Edit As usual some very helpful answers for which many thanks. It is poor that Maple does not document the meaning of FAIL.It seems that for trig identities the expandverfier is the best.
Edit Maple documents FAIL under ? FAIL. I am not sure how I got a blank page when I searched.
Couldn't any question with title beginning with http be removed automatically? There has been quite a few containing nothing but spam.
Dear Community,
Is there an easy way to convert elapsed days since January 1 1900 to date, i.e. to year, month, day in Maple? E.g. 23021 days should convert to 1963.01.10. Also what is the opposite, i.e. from date to elapsed days?
tx in advance,
best regards
Hello Everyone
I have an expression which I would like to integrate from x=0 to x=L. The expression is

How could I specify a list of random colors using some kind of an RGB function, which then could be used in another command for coloring? I think of something like this:
myColors := [ seq( RGB ( [rint(0,255) , rint(0,255) , rint(0,255)] ) , j = 1 .. 20 ) ] :
which does not work of course :-) This should produce me a list of 20 random colors. What would be the right RGB color function?
Tx for the kind help in advance
I generate two vectors and try to plot them one vs. the other ( ZPLOT vs. PREDS ) with the pointplot command. Unfortunately I get the message "points are not in the correct format" ... Probably a minor error, but it is unclear what format Maple expects here? What do I do wrong?
Tx. for the kind help in advance,
P.S. Maple file attached

Bomb dogs searched Columbus Middle School Thursday afternoon after a teacher discovered a bomb threat written on a boys' bathroom wall according to Assistant Superintendent Craig Shannon. Shannon said school officials did not know when the threat was written but cleared the school as a precaution.
Shannon said he expected students to return to class later this afternoon. School will be dismissed as usual, Shannon said.

The GOP should not run ads on MSNBC, in my opinion. They have their own network for spreading the lies and bigotry they use to get their base out to vote!

Under the glitz and glamour that Los Angeles is best known for, LA pubs stand like a bastion of calm and unpretentious fun for the regular ol' working man who cares very little for the play you're starring in next weekend with the guy who was on an episode of Full House once.
Los Angeles pubs make it a cinch to grab a frothy pint or five at almost any hour. Pubs are plentiful all over this expansive city, so it's rarely necessary to drop in on the dreaded freeways on a quest to find one.
Irish pubs, sports pubs, gastropubs, not-quite-sure-what-this-place-is-all-about pubs; they're all here. Maybe it's a divey pub in Hollywood you need, where you can commiserate with those down on their luck drinking and away their sorrows. Or maybe it's a cool new gastropub downtown, with specialty Belgian imports and a solid menu to coat the stomach before and after another round of Chimay.
No matter, for pubs in LA stretch from the gritty hills of Mt. Washington to the splendid ocean. Silver Lake, Echo Park, and Los Feliz are good places to find a barebones pub too, and at the same time have no shortage of fun neighborhood pubs where the game is on and the bartenders are friendly. The same can be said of Hollywood and West Hollywood, though probably not so much for neighboring Beverly Hills.
Regardless of where you are, you can find any type of pub that caters to beach bums, yuppies, and everyone in between – and that's a lot of people. It would take a lifetime to explore all the pubs in Los Angeles, so you better get to work.

Timothy Lee Baxter 1955 - 2012 Lawrence
A Celebration of Life for Timothy Lee Baxter, 56, Lawrence will be held 4 p.m., Saturday, February 4, 2012, at First Church of the Nazarene south of Lawrence. He died January 31, 2012, in Lawrence surrounded by his friends and family, following a long and courageous battle with cancer.
Timothy was born on February 26, 1955, in Fort Knox, Kentucky, the son of Donald G. and Norma R. (Barton) Baxter.
He moved to Lawrence, KS, in 1957. He attended Lawrence schools and graduated from Lawrence High School. He then graduated from Highland Community College.
He worked for TRW, later named Lawrence Technology, for over 20 years before retiring in 1995. He then joined the family business, Baxter Racing and Ford Parts. He traveled with his father's top fuel dragster, the "Jayhawker" from 1976 – 1982 before taking the driver's seat from 1985 – 2002 after the car was switched to top alcohol.
He was a former long-time member of the NHRA and was an avid KU fan. He enjoyed hunting and fishing and spending his summers in Colorado with his two daughters. He won the TRW All Star Race in 1989. He was 3-time Division 5 drag racing champion and received Sportsman of the Year award several times.
Tim married Penny Brecheisen on April 25, 1981.
Survivors include his parents, Don and Norma Baxter; two daughters, Lindsay Baxter, Overland Park, KS, and Lacey Baxter, Lawrence; one brother, Robert A. "Bob" Baxter, and wife, Lisa; one sister, Dawn Kristine "Kris" Wilson, and fiancé, Theron Gregg; former wife and friend, Penny Baxter; nieces and nephews, Kelly Gofus and husband, Sean, and their daughter, Jovee, Roxanne Baxter, Dan Baxter, Ryan Courtney and wife, Sherene, Brett Courtney and wife, Caitlin, Jared and Jacob Wilson.
Memorial contributions may be made in his name to the Tim Baxter Memorial Fund and may be sent in care of Douglas County Bank or Warren-McElwain Mortuary.
A reception will follow the service at the First Church of the Nazarene, 1470 N. 1000 Road, Lawrence, 66046
Online condolences may be sent to www.warrenmcelwain.com. Please sign online guestbook.

NASSAU, BAHAMAS (CBSMiami/AP) – Authorities in the Bahamas are investigating a boating accident that left a 25-year-old from Key Biscayne dead.
Paloma de Mazieres was killed when the boat she was in struck a reef known as Turtle Rock off South Bimini on Sunday night, according to the Royal Bahamas Police Force.
De Mazieres, on impact, was ejected from the vessel and was taken to Alice Town Clinic in Bimini where she was pronounced dead.
The circumstances of the accident are under investigation and an autopsy was planned for later this week, said Inspector Jeff Adderley. No arrests have been made.
The accident occurred off Bimini, a small cluster of islands about 50 miles east of Florida.

This invention relates to improvements in the internal combustion engine and more particularly to engines that have a power stroke on each revolution of the crankshaft.
There have been numerous attempts in the prior art to provide a two-cycle engine for general use that is highly efficient, powerful, lightweight, and that emits a lowered amount of pollutants into the atmosphere. The following patents exemplify some of the advances made over the years to have two-cycle engines become more efficient and of greater utility.
Mort U.S. Pat. No. 1,021,697; Anderson U.S. Pat. No. 2,504,243;
Grant U.S. Pat. No. 1,409,093; Black U.S. Pat. No. 2,799,258;
Cage U.S. Pat. No. 1,575,541; Webb U.S. Pat. No. 2,873,574;
Crimmins U.S. Pat. No. 1,786,106; Hull U.S. Pat. No. 2,970,582;
Bokemuller U.S. Pat. No. 2,113,979; Brown U.S. Pat. No. 3,340,855;
Mallory U.S. Pat. No. 2,156,665; Brown U.S. Pat. No. 3,340,857;
Nallinger U.S. Pat. No. 2,280,839; Morton U.S. Pat. No. 4,016,838;
Carter U.S. Pat. No. 2,381,646.
Not withstanding the advances made, there still remains a requirement that the engines be made even more efficient, with a higher power-to-weight ratio and a lower emission of harmful pollutants.
The primary object of this invention is to provide an engine for general use that is particularly adaptable to gaseous fuels such as compressed natural gas, or hydrogen.
Another object of this invention is to provide an engine for general use that is extremely efficient and powerful for its size.
A further object of this invention is to provide an engine for general use that emits a substantially reduced amount of pollutants to the atmosphere.
Other objects and advantages of this invention will be pointed out in the detailed description appearing hereinafter.
FIG. 1 is a cut-away view of an internal combustion engine in accordance with the present invention. FIG. 2 shows an enlarged cut-away view of a fuel injector in accordance with the present invention. FIG. 3 shows a view from the bottom of the fuel injector shown in FIG. 2. FIG. 4 shows a detail view of the lower portion of he fuel injector as shown in FIG. 2.
Referring to FIG. 1 of the drawings, a piston 1 driven by a crankshaft 2 and connecting rod 3 reciprocates within a cylinder 4. Compression sealing rings 5 are located near the top of the piston to contain the gasses within the cylinder when compression and combustion occurs. Oil sealing rings 6 are located near the bottom of the piston to prevent lubricating oil 8 in the crankcase from entering the combustion area. A wrist pin 7 connects the top portion of the connecting rod with the piston. Lubricating oil contained in the oil sump 9 is supplied to the plain bearings of the connecting rod, the plain bearings supporting the crankshaft, and the parts of the valve train by means of an oil pump. Cooling is effected by a water jacket 28 around the cylinder in concert with a radiator system as is common in the art. A plurality of exhaust ports 10 circumjacent to and in gaseous communication with the cylinder are fully opened by the movement of the piston when it reaches the bottom of its travel. A cylinder head 11 containing a plurality of intake valves 12 and a spark plug 13 is mounted at the top of the cylinder. An air compressor 14 supplies pressurized air to the cylinder through the intake valves. A throttle valve 27 controls the quantity of s id pressurized air to said cylinder. Cooling of the cylinder head and spark plug is partially effected by said pressurized air. Engine driven camshafts 15 and valve springs 16 control the opening and closing of the intake valves. A fuel pressure regulator 17 controls the pressure of the fuel that is supplied to the fuel injectors 18 by way of the fuel supply ducts 25. The fuel injectors meter fuel to the intake air stream by way of the fuel metering ducts 26. Said intake air stream carries the fuel to the cylinder by way of the intake valves. Two fuel injectors are used in this embodiment to provide a more equal mixture to the cylinder, however it is conceivable that a single fuel injector could be used. Fuel quantity is controlled by the length of time the fuel injectors are activated on each cycle. The fuel pressure regulator shown is of a fixed pressure type, however it is conceivable that said regulator could be of a variable type for additional control of the fuel quantity that is delivered to the engine. The fuel metering valves 19 of the fuel injectors are opened by the magnetic attraction of the solenoids 20, which consist of copper wound cores of magnetic material as is common in the art. Said solenoids are activated by a timed electrical current provided by the electronic fuel injector controller 21. The fuel injector shells 24 ar made of a non-magnetic material to prevent cross-circuiting of the magnetic flux. The fuel metering valve seats 22 are composed of an elastic material and provide sealing of the fuel metering valves. The fuel metering valve retainers 2 guide the fuel metering valves and provide a stop to keep said fuel metering valves from making contact with the solenoid cores. It is necessary to prevent said fuel metering valves from making contact with said solenoid cores to prevent sticking due to residual magnetism and to provide a space between the solenoid cores and the fuel metering valves where pressurized fuel may remain to effect the closing of the fuel metering valves.
In operation:
The compressed fuel/air mixture in the cylinder is fired by the spark plug as the piston nears the top-dead-center position in traveling upward. Crank inertia carries the piston past said top-dead-center position whereupon the piston is forced downward in the power stroke by pressure from the expanding gasses. As the piston nears a position in traveling downward that is 3/4 of the way from top-dead-center to bottom-dead-center, it effects the opening of the exhaust ports to initiate the escape of said expanding gasses. As the piston reaches the bottom-dead-center position of its travel, with the exhaust ports now fully open, the intake valve train effects the opening of the intake valves to admit pressurized air from the compressor into the cylinder for the purpose of purging the remainder of the spent gasses out through the exhaust ports. Crankshaft inertia carries the piston through the bottom-dead-center position to begin an upward movement. The purge of spent gasses by the pressurized air continues until the piston, in traveling upward, effects the closing of the exhaust ports as it nears a position that is 1/4 of the way from bottom-dead-center to top-dead-center. Near said time of closure of the exhaust ports, fuel is metered into the intake air stream by the fuel injectors and carried through the still open intake valves to the cylinder. Fuel metering ceases after an appropriate quantity of fuel is delivered to the cylinder. As the piston nears a position that is 1/2 of the way from bottom-dead-center to top-dead-center in traveling upward, said intake valves are closed and compression of the fuel/air mixture begins. The pressurized air from the compressor is normally at about 2 times atmospheric pressure, therefore supercharging of the fuel/air mixture cylinder will occur from the time that the exhaust ports are closed by the piston to the time that the intake valves are closed by the intake valve train. At the time of closure of said intake valves, the compression of the fuel-air mixture is effected by the continuing upward travel of the piston and is once again fired by the spark plug as the piston nears the top-dead-center position, and thus the cycle continues.
In the present invention there is very little time available for the fuel injectors to deliver a proper measure of fuel to the cylinder, having to accomplish this in the time between the closing of the exhaust ports, and the closing of the intake valves. This is especially true at the higher engine speeds, where the time available between the closing of the exhaust ports and the closing of the intake valves is on the order of a few tenths of a millisecond. If the fuel injectors were to begin delivery of the fuel any earlier than at the closing of the exhaust ports, raw fuel would be carried out said exhaust ports by the later portion of the intake air stream that is used to purge the cylinder of spent gasses, causing an unburned hydrocarbons pollution of the atmosphere. If the fuel injectors were to continue the delivery of fuel after the intake valves had closed, then the fuel would remain in the space behind the intake valves until it again became time for the intake valves to open on the next cycle. The raw fuel would then be carried through the open intake valves to the cylinder in the earliest portion of the intake air stream, and would thus be carried out the exhaust ports in the purge cycle to pollute the atmosphere. An electronic fuel injector that is representative of the prior art normally uses a solenoid to attract magnetic material that is attached to or is a part of the fuel metering valve. When a sufficient quantity of the fuel is metered to the engine, the current to the solenoid is cut off and a metal spring returns the fuel metering valve to the valve seat to shut off the fuel flow. The speed of opening and closing of said fuel metering valve is largely a function of the inertia of the mass of the fuel metering valve and of the metal spring. If this injector that is representative of the prior art were used in the present invention it would open and close much too slowly at high engine speeds to allow the metering of a full measure of fuel in the few tenths of a millisecond that is available. This would be due to the high inertia of the mass that is the valve/spring system. In the present invention the mass of the fuel metering parts in a fuel injector is substantially lower than that in an injector of the prior art because the difference in pressure between the fuel in the injector body and the intake air stream is used to effect the closure of the fuel metering valve rather than a metal spring. The fuel in the fuel injector body is at a working pressure of about 100 psi, whereas the air pressure in the intake air stream is at about 30 psi. This pressure differential effects a closure of the fuel metering valve when current to the solenoid is cut off by the electronic fuel controller. Since the pressure of the fuel on the surface of the solenoid side of the fuel metering valve is substantially higher than the pressure of the gasses on the surface of the intake air stream side of the fuel metering valve, said fuel metering valve is forced against the fuel metering valve seat by said higher pressure to effect a closure of said fuel metering valve. Gaseous fuels such as hydrogen or methane, at 100 psi pressure, have considerably less mass than the metal spring that is used to effect a closure of the fuel metering valve in an injector of the prior art. Because of such low mass and corresponding low inertia, the fuel injectors in the present invention are able to operate at speeds that are sufficient to allow the metering of a full measure of fuel in the short time period that is available. The solenoid described herein uses an incomplete magnetic circuit to effect the movement of the fuel metering valve. A complete magnetic circuit would be used if a stronger magnetic force was needed, as in the case of a racing engine.
In the present invention fuel is injected into the intake air stream just behind the intake valves to help mix the fuel in the turbulence that takes place at the intake valve openings and to protect the fuel injector from the burning gasses, however it is entirely possible that the fuel could be injected directly into the cylinder. The fuel used in the present invention is of a gaseous type, however it is conceivable that a liquid fuel could be used. There would of course be an increase in the opening and closing times of the fuel injectors because of the increase in the mass inertia of the fuel. It is also within the scope of the invention that the opening and closing of the exhaust ports and of the air intake ports may be effected by any type of valving known in the art. The direction or type of cylinder scavenging, the type of air compressor used, and the means of ignition are also immaterial. Additional embodiments of the invention in this specification will occur to others, therefore it is intended that the scope of the invention be limited only by the appended claims and not by the embodiments described hereinabove. Accordingly, reference should be made to the following claims in determining the full scope of the invention.

China issues warning to Philippines over disputed Spratlys
Latest exchange follows recent dispute over Chinese fishing boats
ucanews.com reporter, Manila
May 29, 2013
China yesterday warned Manila that it was concerned over Filipino activity related to a shoal in the disputed Spratly Islands.
Chinese ambassador to the Philippines Ma Keqing relayed Beijing's concerns to Defense Secretary Voltaire Gazmin on the sidelines of an event in Manila to mark the International Day of United Nations Peacekeepers.
"They were concerned about the Philippines coming up with additional structures on Ayungin Shoal," Gazmin told reporters after meeting with Ma.
Filipino soldiers have occupied the shoal since 1999 using a grounded ship as a base.
Gazmin said the Philippines will not put up structures in the occupied areas in compliance with a 2002 code of conduct agreed between the countries which have laid a claim to the Spratly's. These countries also includes Taiwan, Vietnam, Malaysia and Brunei.
A Philippine navy official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said a logistics ship will soon depart for the Spratly Islands to deliver supplies. Navy chief Vice-Admiral Jose Luis Alano refused to give details of the upcoming resupply mission but said China should not be bothered by it.
Gazmin confirmed that he briefed the Chinese ambassador on the mission.
In response, Ma said that China was "ready to promote cooperation and exchanges between the two countries."
The Philippines filed a diplomatic protest against China after 30 fishing boats, escorted by a Chinese navy frigate and two maritime surveillance ships, were spotted at the shoal on May 8.
The Philippines claims Ayungin Shoal, which is located 170 kilometers from Palawan province, as part of its territory within a 200-nautical-mile exclusive economic zone based on the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea.
In recent years, China has been more assertive in its claim to the archipelago of more than 750 reefs, atolls and islets as an area within what it calls the nine-dotted line extending across much of the South China Sea.
The Spratly's, which only constitute a total of four square-kilometers, are believed to contain vast mineral deposits.

Anyways, here's my final team pics.
I haven't continued Emerald yet and I started White 2, I'll finish Emerald before I update with White 2, I'm saving that for a big final update.

Symantec releases public beta of Norton 360 for Windows Vista
Symantec has today announced the availability of the public beta of Norton 360 for Windows Vista.
This really only affects businesses, as they were the first to get their hands on shipping versions of Vista.
Symantec has also recently made beta versions of Norton Internet Security and Norton AntiVirus for Vista available. The final versions of these two are expected to be released on 30 January, after Vista's launch.
The final build of Norton 360, which will be Windows XP and Vista compatible, will be on sale by March.
Symantec and MacAfee have both fired shots at the security features incorporated into Vista, as they allege that Microsoft has locked the kernel so that the security vendors can't get in to offer protection.
They alleged that hackers had broken through Patchguard, and said that Microsoft should grant them access so that they could develop protection from the inside out.
Shortly after, Microsoft agreed to give parts of its key data to security software firms so that their products could work smoothly with Vista, and so that their software could disable Microsoft's built-in security.

Young Black JackAlternative Titles : Young Black Jack (2011), ヤング ブラック・ジャック Cast : Ozawa Yukiyoshi, Kaku Kento, Naka Riisa, Okada Masaki Episodes : Finished Category: Japanese Drama Movies Genres : Drama, Mystery, Adventure Type : Movie Release : 2011 Status : Finished Description : The drama will be an original story about the past of the brilliant mercenary doctor Black Jack, during his days as a medical student. In particular, the story will address questions such as why Black Jack does not have a medical license, why he seeks such expensive fees for his services, and how he is connected to his fateful rival Dr. Kiriko.
On Christmas day, a bomb explodes in a shopping mall. The explosion was perpetrated by a serial bomber. A 9-year-old boy Kuro Hazama and his mother Mitsuko (Naho Toda) are seriously and transfered to a university hospital.
With the elite skills of surgeon Dr. Jontaro Honma (Masachika Ichimura), Kuro survives, but is shocked to learn his mother is in a coma. Dr. Honma tells Tokio that when medical science advances, Michiko might one day awake. Tokio decides then to become a doctor.
15 years later, 24-year-old Kuro is a medical student and his mother is still in a coma. Kuro researches ways to awaken his mother. One day, on the street a medical student named Yuna (Riisa Naka) is about to give aid to a woman whose heart has suddenly stopped. But at that time, Kuro tells Yuna that there is a measure which should be done before giving cardiac aid. With Kuro's advice, the woman's life is saved. Meanwhile, Yuna's father is the chief director at the university hospital. A few days later, Tokio and Yuna meet again. Yuna (whose father is the chief director at the university hospital) has become interested in Kuro. She discovers that Kuro, without a license, treats patients who were rejected from the hospital ...

Or google "Hackers gain force from new media" and you should be taken through to the story.
Thanks for trying Anon and Scatter, but I couldn't get through to the content. :(
Different ID… I Googled the headline, picked the second link, and it came up. Was going to copy/pastebin the text but foundt he alternate ID. Not sure if it'll work for int'l, but hopefully it'll work…
Sorry for the double, but this link may work if the first one doesn't. Mods, feel free to consolidate/edit at will.
DARN IT! Change "false" to "true" in the above link. Really sorry, apologies.
Thanks, that link works.
I'm starting to think the original-style punk anti-establishmentarianism of the 70's/80's has shifted from music as a medium to computers as a medium today.
To get the article, just google the headline ("Hackers gain force from new media") and click the news link. Apparently as long as Google is the referrer, they don't block you.
(Hat tip to bugmenot.com for this info)
site registration required…
It is worth reading for information more detailed than I've seen anywhere else. I'd infer the author has seen some IRC logs of internal discussions about organization, including the handoff of the twitter feed from who has been doing it to one a little less noisy and more defensive. Googling the headline worked just fine in three clicks.
Gah – none of the above links are working for me without forcing registration, even just googling the headline isn't. Halp!

Maybe I should have just given up instead, like they wanted me to?

or, you know, the pastebin. Honestly, though, I didn't really learn anything new in this article. Lulzsec homepage was more informative.
Though, I wonder how 'We were doing this to show up the weaknesses in internet security' holds up now that Lulzsec have supposedly been hacked themselves?
At the very least, it makes it all very post-modern.

Mystery Cadre and His Mistress: An anonymous netizen posted amorous photos of a man named Li Guangnian and his 18-year-old mistress from a cell phone he found. The post claimed Mr. Li is the director and Party group secretary of the "Commission of Inquiry on Domestic Dynamics," part of the Central Committee Party School's "Scientific Concept of Development Research Society." The Party School says Mr. Li has no affiliation with it and that the institutions named by the netizen do not exist. Hong Kong's Wen Wei Po reports [zh] the young mistress was treated "no worse than Ji Yingnan," the former mistress of cadre Fan Yue.

GM Soybeans Coming to China: Monsanto stock jumped 4.53% today after China approved the import of genetically modified soybeans from Brazil and Argentina, including Intacta RR2 PRO. But the National Business Daily (每日经济新闻) noted that at least as of May 20, the Ministry of Agriculture had not yet received the application for the approval of Intacta RR2. Yang Xiaolu, a Beijing resident and activist for open information, says the speed of the process leaves suspicions about the legality of approving Intacta RR2 for import.
• Sun Zhengcai+Monsanto (孙政才+孟山都): In 2009, then Minister of Agriculture Sun Zhengcai met with Monsanto CEO Hugh Grant and reached a "common understanding," the details of which remain unclear.

Many in Chongqing are breathing easier […] after Bo's rocky reign, which won praise for an organized crime crackdown and promotion of communist culture and then widespread scorn as his career unraveled in seamy accusations of murder and corruption.
"I feel that this redress is necessary," Wang Kang, an outspoken scholar in Chongqing, said in a phone interview. "This was a burden that was left in Chongqing. This burden must be removed so that Chongqing can breathe a sigh of relief."
Chongqing, a breathtaking city of skyscrapers hugging steep hills along the Yangtze and Jialing rivers, has been portrayed as rife with cover-ups, power abuse and corruption under Bo and his police chief, Wang Lijun, in court documents. Since their removal, Bo's wife has been sentenced to life imprisonment for murdering a British businessman and Wang given 15 years for corruption and covering up the murder. Bo awaits trial after the Communist Party purged him for obstruction of justice, corruption and sexual liaisons with numerous women.
The scandal exacerbated already divisive politicking for spots in the new Communist leadership, which culminated at a party congress last month. A new party secretary was chosen for Chongqing, a former agriculture minister known as a consensus-builder. In widely quoted remarks just days into his post, Sun Zhengcai said he was "resolutely opposed to the vulgar, extravagant, degenerate and depraved way of life."
At Economic Observer, Pang Lei notes a particularly symbolic development: the removal of Wang's calligraphy from two giant stone orbs at the entrance to Chongqing's Public Security Bureau headquarters. The Observer marked the occasion with the evocative headline 'Wiping Wang Lijun's Balls From History'.

Sun, 49, was elected as a member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee after the 18th CPC National Congress last week. Born in Shandong Province, he served as Minister of [agri]Culture for three years before being transferred to Northeast China in 2009 as secretary of the CPC Jilin Provincial Committee.
Zhang Dejiang, vice premier and former member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, covered Bo's position from March as secretary of the CPC Chongqing Municipal Committee, after Bo's wife Bogu Kailai was found to have been involved in the murder of British citizen Neil Heywood.
[…] According to media reports, Zhang had been trying to differ from Bo's tenure by redirecting Chongqing's economic and social development in a low-profile manner. Bo's red song campaign was also discontinued. Zhang urged Party officials to draw lessons from the Bo scandal, take better care of their spouses, children and staff and ensure they are held to the highest standards.
With the transition to a new generation of leadership still underway, Sun's assignment will prepare and test him for an anticipated key role in the next. From Brian Spegele at The Wall Street Journal:
The appointment of Mr. Sun, a former agriculture minister and party chief of northeast Jilin province, is an early indication that rising party leaders will be given reins of some of the country's most important—and most problematic—areas, analysts say. In Chongqing, for example, Mr. Sun will face deeply vested business interests, continuing concerns over organized crime and still-strong support for the ousted Mr. Bo.
The appointment—and a number of others that are expected to follow in the coming days and weeks—points to a major shuffling at the top ranks of China's ruling party following last week's Communist Party Congress, where Xi Jinping succeeded President Hu Jintao as party chief. That shuffle will provide important insight into a generation of rising cadres—known as the sixth generation, following the Xi-led fifth generation—who are expected to lead the party when Mr. Xi and other newly appointed leaders likely retire a decade from now.
The outlook of the new generation could be significantly different from the previous. Unlike Mr. Xi's generation, which came of age during the chaos of the Cultural Revolution, Mr. Sun and his contemporaries grew up during the period of relative openness following economic reforms launched by Deng Xiaoping in 1978.
Cheng Li's biographical entry on Sun at The Brookings Institution highlights his PhD, a year spent studying in the U.K., and a "humble" family background, another difference between him and princelings like Bo and Xi.
[…] There have been different explanations for the quick rise of Sun Zhengcai and his relationships with senior leaders. Some believe that Sun has been Jia Qinglin's protégé, as he advanced his career largely in Beijing, where Jia served as mayor and party secretary from 1996 through 2002. It also has been speculated that Sun is a protégé of Wen Jiabao, who played a direct role in Sun's promotion to minister of agriculture and then party secretary of Jilin Province. Both explanations, however, may be correct.
Modest background is shared by Hu Chunhua, or "Little Hu". Both men have just received seats on the "outer" Politburo, are relatively young at 49, and are strongly tipped for future leadership. From Cheng Li at Brookings:
Hu Chunhua established his patron-mentor relationship with Hu Jintao in Tibet when the latter served as party secretary there (1988–1992). Hu Chunhua has been widely regarded as "a carbon copy of Hu Jintao" [to whom he is not related]. Both come from humble family backgrounds, both were student leaders in their college years, both advanced their political careers primarily through the CCYL, both worked in arduous work environments such as Tibet, both served as provincial party secretaries at a relatively young age, and both have low-profile personalities. Hu Chunhua's parents were farmers in a poor village and he has six siblings. Hu got married in Tibet and the couple have one daughter.
Hu the Younger's current role is as Party secretary for Inner Mongolia: see 'Little Hu and the Mining of the Grasslands' on CDT. He is now widely expected to take over as Guangdong Party head, though it was rumoured last month that he was also a contender for the Chongqing position. Both he and Sun may then rise to the Politburo Standing Committee in 2017, when five of the seven current members are due to retire. Last week, Bloomberg traced their likely trajectories.
If the two do assume top leadership posts 10 years from now, their advancement within the party's top echelons may follow the path of Hu Jintao, whose grooming began when he was named to the Politburo's Standing Committee at age 49 in 1992, said Bo Zhiyue, senior research fellow at the National University of Singapore's East Asia Institute who has written a research paper on Hu Chunhua and Sun.
By contrast, Xi Jinping, who was named Communist Party general secretary […], and Li Keqiang, who is forecast to take over from Premier Wen Jiabao in March, were elevated into the Politburo Standing Committee in 2007 without serving in the broader Politburo. Communist Party leaders may have decided the next generation will need more time to prepare, Bo said.
"I think this time around they are doing a better job of bringing younger people into the Politburo so they can start this grooming process," Bo said in a phone interview. "In the case of Hu Jintao it was 10 years, but in the case of Xi Jinping and Li Keqiang it was only five years. In Chinese politics five years seems a little bit rushed."
Nothing about future leadership transitions can be taken for granted, however, as the current Party secretary in Guangdong and Sun's predecessor in Chongqing might attest.
