I was pondering in philosophy class, and I think I came up with a pretty good argument that the universe is not contingent.
First off, lets us set up the definitions I am using to frame this argument, they are from Leibniz's Modadology which I happen to agree with:
- Monad 31: Our reasoning is based upon two great principles: first, that of contradiction, by means of which we decide that to be false which involves contradiction and that to be true which contradicts or is opposed to the false.
- Monad 32: And second, the principle of sufficient reason, in virtue of which we believe that no fact can be real or existing and no statement true unless it has a sufficient reason why it should be thus and not otherwise. Most frequently, however, these reasons cannot be known by us.
- Monad 33: There are also two kinds of truths: those of reasoning and those of fact. The truths of reasoning are necessary, and their opposite is impossible. Those of fact, however, are contingent, and their opposite is possible. When a truth is necessary, the reason can be found by analysis in resolving it into simpler ideas and into simpler truths until we reach those which are primary.
The first part:
- You cannot think of absolutely nothing.
- If you claim to be thinking of nothing, you are actually thinking of something. For example you may be thinking of blackness, this is something.
- If you think about the universe's non-existence, you are thinking about absolutely nothing
- pretty straight forward IMO, if you have any issues, refer to point 1
- This is a contradiction, as you cannot think of absolutely nothing.
- Therefore the universe in general, must exist, necessarily.
- The universes existence becomes a truth of reason by Monad 33, as the universe not existing is impossible to think of. And by Monad 31 the universe existing contingently is false.
Pretty solid, I asked by philosophy professor about this and he said this makes sense within this framework. He doesn't agree with this, but that is because he disagrees with these Monads.
Now as you imagine, this isn't that amazing, especially in the context of Leibniz as he says one can imagine an infinitude of universes.
I hold that our universe in particular exists necessarily. First off I do admit this is a bit on more shaky foundation. I could actually stop here and post, but I wanted to present my entire argument.
Also part 2 is not necessary for what I am saying later on about God, but I am posting it for completeness.
Part 2:
- When you imagine something, in your imagining, you are there in some way
- This is an axiom I hold, but I want to you try to imagine being somewhere. Got it? Now where is your perception, its in that place.
- If you imagine a different universe, you do not exist there
- You may have some other version of you there, but that person is not you
- You cannot imagine your own non-existence
- Try to imagine not having a perception... yeah its not happening.
- Its a contradiction to do this, so Monad 31
- Therefore it is impossible to truly imagine a different universe
- Basically if you are truly imagine another universe, your perception cannot be there, as you do not exist there in any form by definition, the universe is different.
- A retort can be made that you can imagine your death or before you were born, but again, you have perception there imagining all this.
- Again Monad 31
- Our universe then must exist necessarily.
- Much like my earlier argument, our universe's existence becomes a truth of reason by Monad 33, as thinking of other universes is impossible. And by Monad 31 our universe existing contingently is false.
Again, this is on much shakier ground, a few things here are a bit odd I admit, but I do think its follows.
I am still not sure if all this implies that other universes don't exist, just that we can't think about them truly.
Why does this Matter?
It all circles back to Monad 32, the principle of sufficient reason, that being that the universe must have a cause. This lies upon the assumption the universe is contingent, which I argue that is is not.
As far as God proofs go, the principle of sufficient reason is arguably the strongest card theists have, the only thing we can reply is that the universe may be eternal or that we do not know. This is important outside of Leibniz's Monadology, but for theological arguments in general: there basis is that the universe is contingent.
I disagree, with the above argument.

ZF-6545: Zend_Application_Module_Bootstrap doesn't work
I think, that problem lies in constructor where is never calling parent class (Zend_Application_Bootstrap_Bootstrap) for initializing front controller. When I insert to constructor on first line calling parent class, modules then works fine.
I'm reading this request not as it doesn't work, but as a feature request to have Zend_Application_Module_Bootstrap extend Zend_Application_Bootstrap_Bootstrap instead of Zend_Application_Bootstrap_BootstrapAbstract.
Ooops -- it already does, and is simply missing the call to parent::__construct(), as you note in your comment. Fixing.
Patched in trunk and 1.8 release branch.
After this patch, my app doesn't work. No error trapped neither blank screen, only the message from firefox "can't found the page".
I have the standard modular structure:
application Bootstrap.php ----Configs --------application.ini modules --------default --------------controllers --------------models --------------views --------module1 --------------Bootstrap.php --------------controllers --------------models --------------views --------module2 --------------Bootstrap.php --------------controllers --------------models --------------views library public
The main bootstrap.php extends Zend_Application_Bootstrap_Bootstrap (only one method to _initLogger), and the bootstrap module's extends Zend_Application_Module_Bootstrap without any method.
And application ini, contains this settings:
phpSettings.display_startup_errors = 0 phpSettings.display_errors = 0
bootstrap.path = APPLICATION_PATH "/Bootstrap.php" bootstrap.class = "Bootstrap"
resources.frontController.moduleDirectory = APPLICATION_PATH "/modules" resources.frontController.plugins.debug = "Scienta_Controller_Plugin_Debug"
resources.modules[] =
autoLoaderNameSpaces.0 = "Scienta"
I'm reading the tests for this issue, but don't understand what's the real problem. If I include this revision the application can't run, but if revert to previous everything works.
Thanks in advance. PS: a posibility to show how to configure a modular application with Zend_application and autoad resources?
First, change your autoloaderNamespaces entry to read:
autoloaderNamespaces[] = "Scienta"
IIRC, numeric keys are not allowed in Zend_Config.
Second, the reason you're not seeing any error messages is because you've told PHP not to display them. Change your display_*errors settings:
phpSettings.display_startup_errors = 1
phpSettings.display_errors = 1
and this will give you a hint as to any issues you're having.
Third, make sure your error_reporting is as strict as possible. You can do this by adding the following to your config:
phpSettings.error_reporting = 8191
Do all of the above, and you should get some indicators as to what's occurring.
Sorry about showing you only the "production" section of my application.ini. "Development" it's the running section that inherits "production" and add this settings:
phpSettings.display_startup_errors = 1 phpSettings.display_errors = 1 phpSettings.error_reporting = 8191
Replaced numeric keys with array notation:
autoloaderNamespaces[] = "Scienta"
The result is the same: the server shutdown without any clue about it (neither apache logs, nor php logs). If I revert the commit everything work again.
ok, I've found that this error only happens when I have this setting in the ini file:
resources.frontController.moduleDirectory = APPLICATION_PATH "/modules"
If I reduce the memory_limit from my php.ini, I get the "memory exhausted" error in Zend/Loader/Autoloader/Resource.php on line 257
that's the unique error I can see, otherwise the server crash.
I can't say I've run into this issue myself, nor heard of any similar reports. Is it possible that you don't have any directories under modules? or that there's a recursive symlink in there?
First all, thanks for your attention.
I've tried with several environments (including windows OS and Linux) and checked symlinks already. It's a very, very little app without any other logic than test modules autoloader and Zend_Application. If you want to look into, this is the link.
Thanks in advance
You can find more information in the mailing list: [http://nabble.com/Adding-Zend_Application_Module_B…]
I am running into this as well (rev 15472).
When using multiple controller directories and Zend_Application_Module_Bootstrap bootstraps it recurses through...
{main}( ) ../index.php:0 Zend_Application_Bootstrap_BootstrapAbstract->bootstrap( ) ../index.php:49 Zend_Application_Bootstrap_BootstrapAbstract->_bootstrap( ) ../BootstrapAbstract.php:518 Zend_Application_Bootstrap_BootstrapAbstract->_executeResource( ) ../BootstrapAbstract.php:558 Zend_Application_Resource_Modules->init( ) ../BootstrapAbstract.php:615 Zend_Application_Bootstrap_BootstrapAbstract->bootstrap( ) ../Modules.php:84 Zend_Application_Bootstrap_BootstrapAbstract->_bootstrap( ) ../BootstrapAbstract.php:518 Zend_Application_Bootstrap_BootstrapAbstract->_executeResource( ) ../BootstrapAbstract.php:558 Zend_Application_Resource_Modules->init( ) ../BootstrapAbstract.php:615 Zend_Application_Bootstrap_BootstrapAbstract->bootstrap( ) ../Modules.php:84 Zend_Application_Bootstrap_BootstrapAbstract->_bootstrap( ) ../BootstrapAbstract.php:518 Zend_Application_Bootstrap_BootstrapAbstract->_executeResource( ) ../BootstrapAbstract.php:558 Zend_Application_Resource_Modules->init( )
...and so on until reaching Fatal error: Maximum function nesting level of '100' reached, aborting!
Jorge, Chris -- that gives me more information. I'm not sure the diagnosis of the issue is correct, but it at least gives me somewhere to start looking. I'll have this resolved for 1.8.1.
This issue is still present in the rev. 15476
With config of:
[bootstrap] autoloadernamespaces[] = "Zend_" autoloadernamespaces[] = "SF_"
phpsettings.display_errors = 0 phpsettings.error_reporting = 8191 phpsettings.date.timezone = "Europe/London"
bootstrap.path = APPLICATION_PATH"/bootstrap/Bootstrap.php"
resources.frontcontroller.moduledirectory = APPLICATION_PATH"/modules" resources.frontcontroller.defaultmodule = "storefront" resources.frontcontroller.throwexceptions = false resources.frontcontroller.params.prefixDefaultModule = true resources.frontcontroller.plugins.action = "SF_Plugin_Action" resources.frontcontroller.plugins.admin = "SF_Plugin_AdminContext"
resources.db.adapter = "PDO_MYSQL" resources.db.isdefaulttableadapter = true resources.db.params.dbname = "storefront" resources.db.params.username = "root" resources.db.params.password = "root" resources.db.params.hostname = "localhost" resources.db.params.driver_options.1002 = "SET NAMES UTF8;"
resources.modules[] =
global.autoloadersupresswarnings = true
[production : bootstrap]
[development : bootstrap] phpsettings.display_errors = 1 resources.frontcontroller.throwexceptions = true global.autoloadersupresswarnings = false
[test : bootstrap]
I get recursive loop, this is due to the addition of the call to the parent constructor in the module bootstrap in rev. 15357 this now means that all options are passed back re-adding the resource modules option and causing the loop.
The quick fix is to revert the changes from rev.15357, however I think what actually needs to happen is for the modules option to be removed before it is passed back to the parent.
This issue was previously fixed for ZF-6183 in rev. 14738
I had a quick hack at this by adding this to Zend_Application_Bootstrap_BootstrapAbstract:
public function removeModulesOption()
if ($this->hasOption('resources')) {
And then in the module bootstrap:
This however seemed to break my FC plugin that uses the Action Stack???
Hope this helps track this issue down.
I was never able to reproduce the recursion, but I've added in a call to remove the 'Modules' resource within module bootloaders if it is detected.
I have the same problem. Recursive loop is still present in rev. 15522.
Here it's solved with r15506 (ZF-6545: merge r15505 to 1.8 release branch)
Dmitry -- I have yet to be able to reproduce the recursion based on any of the information available here or via the referenced mailing lists. I have added logic in the base module bootloader to remove the "Modules" resource during initialization if found, as this was identified by somebody else as the issue.
Please, re-open this issue only if you can post a complete setup that reliably reproduces the issue with current trunk.
Jorge, don't you really have this problem now? Well, I see the following fixed code in Zend_Application_Module_Bootstrap:
// ZF-6545: prevent recursive registration of modules if ($this->hasPluginResource('Modules')) { $this->unregisterPluginResource('Modules'); } but I still get the recursive loop. If its works fine for you it means I do something wrong...
Dmitry -- is it possible that your module bootstraps are not extending Zend_Application_Module_Bootstrap?
Incidentally, is it efficient that every Module's Bootstrap constructs Zend_Application_Bootstrap_Bootstrap as parent with the same instance of the application and makes the same resources in them?
In this case I supporse the Delegation is better than the Inheritance.
* Module's Bootstrap should be an inner bootstrap of global bootstrap ,isn't it?
* In the case of the Inheritance, The system having many modules should have too many instances of bootstrap.
* If the global bootstrap have resources customized by -- _initFoo -- , they conflict with module's resources.
The Delegation's example,
interface Zend_Application_Bootstrap_ModuleBootstrapper
extends Zend_Application_Bootstrap_Bootstrapper
public function setBootstrap(Zend_Application_Bootstrap_Bootstrapper $bootstrap);
And it must provide properties of the resources with the delegation to the master bootstrap.
@Tomoaki: The application bootstrap could potentially be a module bootstrap instance. As such, having a setBootstrap() instances doesn't make sense -- there is no parent bootstrap.
Second, there will be no conflicts with "global" resources. Each bootstrap is responsible for running its own resources. You can pass these in by prefixing them with the module name, or have your bootstrap grab its own configuration. Any given bootstrap can be responsible for as much or as little bootstrapping as they need.
Third, I don't know what you mean by "too many instances of bootstrap" -- there is one, and then references to that one. (Actually, there will be one for each module, but that's only if the module has a bootstrap, and each module bootstrap is responsible for its own configuration -- which brings us back to the question of what "too many instances" means...)
Confirmed that this issue is fixed in the trunk now :)
However I have one more issue after the parent::__construct() was added, now my FC plugins are being called twice per request??
My setup is available here:
I have a basic FC plugin which uses the ActionStack this now fails for some reason, and if I echo some text in it in gets called twice instead of once like it should be. If I un-reg the frontcontroller resource everything works as normal:
// ZF-6545: prevent recursive registration of modules
if ($this->hasPluginResource('Modules')) {
I will not reopen this issue but if you could check it out that would be cool :)
@Matthew In case the module having its bootstrap class and the application having no extra options for the module,the module's bootstrap and the application's bootstrap are as independent bootstrap and they have the same options. Thus Resource_Modules exec the module's bootstrap->bootstrap(). This causes unfortunately conflicts.
For example: This is a scraping of the sequence.
// application Bootstrap
class Bootstrap extends Zend_Application_Bootstrap_Bootstrap{
protected function _initView(){
$view = new Zend_View_Smarty;
// customized code using options
// and
// set view to viewRenderer
return $view;
// Foo Module's Bootstrap
class Foo_Bootstrap extends Zend_Application_Module_Bootstrap{
protected function _initBar(){} // initializing some.
$application = new Zend_Application(
'bootstrap' => '/path/to/Bootstrap.php',
'resources' => array(
'modules' => array(), // to call module bootstrap
'view' => array(), // some settings
// Zend_Application exec below
$bootstrap = new Bootstrap($application);
// Resource_Modules exec below
$module = 'Foo';
$bootstrapClass = 'Foo_Bootstrap';
$moduleBootstrap = new $bootstrapClass($bootstrap);
$bootstraps[$module] = $moduleBootstrap;
In this case, setting the view and the viewRenderer by class method - Bootstrap::_initView - . But the module Foo_Bootstrap breaks them unfortunately by a plugin resource so called Zend_Application_Resource_View .-- it creates new view instance and new viewRenderer and push it--. This is the sample of conflicts.
Global resources or static objects have a similar problem. For instance, FrontController resource.
BTW I said "too many instances". In some case the module bootstrap needs the application's resources they have already set. I think that it should be solved by injecting The Application Bootstrap to the module bootstrap. Not by creating new bootstrap instance and making the same resources with the same options.
If the module bootstrap only needs frontController resource , how about this one?
// Module_Bootstrap::__construct
if ($application instanceof Zend_Application_Bootstrap_Bootstrap) {
$this->frontController = $application->getResource('FrontController');
This might be more appropriate as a separate bug, but in case recent changes are related...
Module recursion is fixed, but I am now seeing custom Application Resources being called twice: (r15545)
class Main_Bootstrap_Resource_View extends Zend_Application_Resource_ResourceAbstract
* @var Zend_View_Interface
protected $_view;
* Defined by Zend_Application_Resource_Resource
* @return void
public function init()
// Return view so bootstrap will store it in the registry
return $this->getView();
* Retrieve view object
* @return Zend_View
public function getView()
if (null === $this->_view) {
$options = $this->getOptions();
$title = '';
if (array_key_exists('title', $options)) {
$title = $options['title'];
$view = new Zend_View($options);
"); // Prints twice
$viewRenderer =
if (isset($options['viewbasepathspec'])) {
$this->_view = $view;
return $this->_view;
@Chris Martin: I think what you are seeing is related to what @Tomoaki is indicating -- that the module bootstrap is running the same plugin resources as the application bootstrap. I'm going to get this resolved for 1.8.1 today.
@Tomoaki -- I've updated the code to (a) no longer call parent::__construct() (@Chris, @Keith -- this was the culprit behind duplicate resource initialization), and also to ensure the front controller resource is registered (which ensures a module bootstrap can run standalone if necessary).

Get them signed, sealed, and delivered Fred!!!
I'm guessing we should start hearing things about 8am.
Very excited with this class. I know some people are concerned with the signings after Thomas and Morris, but with this staff's track record of finding talent that other coaches don't recognize until later, I have confidence that they see something in these kids that they feel will be an asset to the team. And I certainly don't think they took them just because they needed to fill a scholarship. Welcome aboard fellas!
Any chance of a surprise signing?

CW suggested that Daniel Edozie could sign today. Other than that I wouldn't expect any surprises.
25th ranked class according to Rivals, just missed the top 25 with Scout.
Matthew Thomas @Theiceman_21 Tomorrow is a big day. Finally get to sign my letter of intent and become a cyclone for good! #cyclONEnation
should be hearing from this guy soon
Self proclaimed 2012 CF Newcomer of the Year
Anyone here anything yet, is Edozie a 4 sure???? I will add, I am utterly impressed with every move that Hoiberg has made recruiting-wise.....
@RickBrownDMR 37m Ago When Iowa State releases its basketball signees today, Daniel Edozie won't be there. Tyler JC forward signing Saturday.
Edozie to sign Saturday per Brown.

Leading up to his Monday night DJ set at Le Bain in NYC, FaltyDL answered a few questions for us. Get details on the party below!
Giant Step: Miles Davis is cited as a life-changing influence of yours. Can you share some about the impact of Miles Davis on your life?
FaltyDL: Everything I've learned about improvisation, I've learned from Miles. [Improvisation] is rare in electronic music – it's all so grid in a way. But I just love his music.
GS: What led you to becoming a sushi chef?
FDL: Needed money and washing dishes was so shit.
GS: How did the transition into music full time happen?
FDL: Slowly but surely with enough releases and gigs under my belt. Carved my own niche, I guess.
GS: Your most proud remix moment?
FDL: Different ones were different milestones. Zed Bias, Sean Kuti – been honored to do them all.
GS: What projects are you currently working on?
FDL: Just making more tunes!
GS: A musical act you love that others would never expect you to?
FDL: Guns N Roses
GS: Explain to us how you wreck a party when you DJ; folks need to be prepared.
FDL: I build it up nicely, then right when it should climax, I drop some jazz and everyone looks disappointed and the crowd goes away. That's how I usually wreck a party.

Keith Price breaks the Washington record for career TD passes in a 300-yard night, Bishop Sankey rolls for 161 yards rushing, the defense rises up, and new, $280 million Husky Stadium rocks in UW's 38-6 victory.
By Gregg Bell
UW Director of Writing
SEATTLE – Husky Stadium isn't just brand new.
It's GRAND new.
And so is this UW season.
Keith Price completed 23 of 31 passes for 324 yards and two second-half touchdowns that broke the Washington career record for touchdown passes. It was his first 300-yard game since out-playing Robert Griffin III in the 2011 Alamo Bowl.
Bishop Sankey romped for 161 yards on 25 carries and two more scores, his eighth career 100-yard rushing game and fifth in six starts.
And the Huskies' defense swarmed quarterback Joe Southwick and Boise State's offense. Defensive backs jumped receivers' routes and batted down balls in flight. Linebackers and defensive ends stuffed a fourth-and-1 run.
No wonder the sellout crowd of 71,963 rocked the new, $280 million place throughout Washington's 38-6 pounding of the No. 19 Broncos on an unforgettable Saturday night on Montlake Boulevard.
"It's loud," Price said of his new home palace, standing inside the team tunnel immediately after his and his team's remarkable retaking of Montlake.
"It's awesome."
His grin was as wide as the margin of this rousing, resounding victory. Price was so into the stunningly successful night, he didn't realize he had thrown for 300 yards until informed in that tunnel after the game.
The night was even more idyllic for the Huskies than the 75-degree Seattle sunset to the west, and 300 boats sail-gating just beyond the opposite, east end of the remade stadium.
"It was crazy," sophomore linebacker Shaq Thompson said of the scene.
He had nine tackles and was all over the field with linebacker John Timu, who had a game-high 13 stops.
It was the first time since 1997 that Boise State failed to score touchdown. Jim Lambright was still Washington's coach then.
This was the Broncos' worst loss of the Chris Petersen head-coaching era, and worst overall since Boise State got whacked at Georgia to begin 2005. That was Tyrone Willingham's first season at UW.
Deontae Cooper got six carries for eight yards in his collegiate debut that'd been delayed for three years by three torn anterior cruciate ligaments in as many summers. Cooper, playing in front of his father – his inspiration – and his stepmother up from southern California, got his first carry early in the second quarter. And it was a crowd-favorite moment, drawing huge roars among the whopping 54 carries for 268 yards UW had while steamrolling an exhausted Boise State defense with a supersonic, no-huddle offense.
"What I dreamed about didn't add up," Cooper said of his debut and the entire, unforgettable scene. "Sold-out stadium. 70,000 in stands. What a blessing."
And to think: This 32-point thrashing came without preseason All-America tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins. He was serving what coach Steve Sarkisian later acknowledged as an "internal" punishment.
Sarkisian said Seferian-Jenkins, who had surgery two weeks ago to put in pin in his broken right pinkie finger, will play in two weeks when Washington (1-0) faces Illinois in Chicago's Soldier Field after this coming week's bye.
"Once he gets back," Price said, "it's going to be kind of scary."
Washington had three trips inside the Boise State 13 in the first half and a huge edge in total yardage. But the Huskies led only 10-3.
"I was a little disheartened that we only had 10 points," Sarkisian said.
"But we didn't panic. We came in at halftime and said, 'Let's stick with what we're doing.'"
In other words – as the black, team T-shirts say – "FINISH."
They sure did that.
Price exquisitely placed a back-shoulder throw that Kasen Williams, quiet in the first half with just one catch and three targets, turned into a 37-yard catch and run. Then Price threw his 55th career touchdown pass to Williams early in the third quarter on a perfectly thrown pass on the junior wide out's fade route to the end zone.
Then UW's Josh Shirley and Thompson stopped Boise State's Jay Ajayi on the Huskies 35 for no gain on fourth and 1. That proved to be the Broncos' last chance to stay in the game.
"I thought we started fast – and stayed fast," Thompson said.
On the ensuing drive Price expertly escaped a rush with a perfectly timed pump fake. Then he rolled left and hit Joshua Perkins in stride as he cut across the back of the end zone from 18 yards out.
The Huskies led 24-6. And the Retake Montlake party was on.
After his 56th career touchdown pass broke the UW record of Cody Pickett he had tied earlier in the third quarter, Price gave six fist pumps at his team's sideline. It was if he was pulling on the horn of a train.
A runaway one.
Perkins, a converted wide receiver, was breaking free in the back of the end zone as Price was extending the play because Seferian-Jenkins was out.
What a time for Perkins' first career catch – let alone with first career touchdown – and only catch of the game. It put UW up 18 with 2:14 left in the third quarter.
"Man," Perkins said, "that was so much fun. That was the most fun I've ever had as a football player.
"I had a big celebration planned and everything (for his first TD), running around the end zone. But I was too excited."
Price is now the most prolific touchdown maker the Huskies have ever had at quarterback. More than his quarterbacks coach, Marques Tuiasosopo. More than Mark Brunell, Saturday night's Husky Legend who flew in for the game from Jacksonville, Fla., where he is now a high-school coach. More than Brock Huard, Damon Huard, Jake Locker or anyone else who's played the position in 121 years of Husky football.
And that humbles him.
"Man, it's crazy. It's crazy," said the recipient of Sarkisian's first recruiting call the day the coach took over at UW in January 2009. "I remember coming in here, and now being mentioned among the best to ever play here, it's an honor. I'm just proud to be a part of it."
The Huskies went to halftime not proud as much as angry – ticked at feeling they should have been leading by more than 10-3.
They had a 313-165 edge in total yardage. They had 19 first downs, ran for 120 yards and were inside Boise State's 13-yard line three times in the break-neck first half.
Yet a fourth-and-1 run by backup running back Dwayne Washington lost 3 yards to end one deep UW threat. And Price's third-and-5 pass to Williams went off the leading receiver's hands at the Boise State 8 the play before Travis Coons' 30-yard field goal early in the second quarter.
So the Huskies had to settle with the one-touchdown lead at the break.
Price threw an interception near midfield on his first pass, a forced throw into coverage to Williams. The fifth-year senior responded by completing 9 of his next 10 throws – and 16 of his final 22 of the first half.
Sankey, last season's out-of-nowhere, 1,400-yard rusher, had 86 yards on 16 carries in the first half.
Sarkisian had hoped his new, ultra-fast, no-huddle offense could get in 80-plus plays per game this season. It ran a whopping 52 plays in that frenetic first half. It ended up running 85 plays, and that was after letting up late in the rout to drain the clock. Even with the milking at the end, it was the most plays run since 2007 in a victory over Stanford.
The Huskies out-gained Boise State 592-346 overall, and finished with a punishing, 268 yards rushing to avenge December's 28-26 loss to the Broncos in the MAACO Bowl Las Vegas.
Afterward, Sarkisian told his players not to get too high.
He also praised them for blocking out all the wild hoopla all around them inside the sold-out, rocking stadium from pregame through the final, decisive moments of a night these Huskies and 70,000 of their closest friends will remember for a long time.
"I'm proud," Sarkisian said, "of our guys' focus."

Date: January 03 2013
DELHI: The ashes of the 23-year-old victim of the gang rape in Delhi that provoked weeks of protests in India have been scattered in the Ganges. The student, who died last weekend of injuries sustained in the assault, was cremated on Sunday. Her identity has still not been made public.
Six men, including one who claims to be a juvenile aged 17, have been detained and are accused of her rape and murder. Police have drawn up a 1000-page charge sheet which they will present in court on Thursday.
Hundreds of people joined the family by the Ganges in Bharauli, 950 kilometres east of Delhi. The cortege took three hours to cover the eight kilometres to the river from the family's ancestral home because of the crowds, the Times of India reported. India's often ruthless and sensationalist media had agreed to stay away.
The suspects, other than the juvenile, could face the death penalty if convicted. On Tuesday the Home Minister, Sushilkumar Shinde, said the case against them appeared very strong.
''We have a solid case with very good evidence … a magistrate has recorded the victim's dying declaration and we have a prime witness, the girl's friend, who has identified the rapists,'' Mr Shinde told The Economic Times.
The victim's boyfriend is likely to give crucial evidence during what is expected to be a fast-tracked trial.
Delhi police say hundreds of women have applied for gun licences since the murder.
''Lots of women have been contacting us asking for information about how to obtain licences. Any woman has a threat against her. It's not surprising. There are fearless predators out there,'' said Abhijeet Singh, of the campaign group Guns For India.
As the ramifications of the crime continued to reverberate throughout India a chart-topping rapper known for his sexually explicit lyrics became embroiled in the growing campaign against sexism and misogyny.
Yo Yo Honey Singh's New Year's Eve concert in Delhi was cancelled after an online campaign which highlighted lyrics allegedly inciting abuse of women.
His 2007 track Prostitute refers to him having violent sex with a woman after he forces her to ''dance naked'' and includes the line: ''You will scream and run but where can you go … I will take your life.''
There are also fears the attack will lead to further restrictions on women.
Elders in Matapa, in the poor state of Bihar, have banned the use of mobile phones for teenage girls and warned them against wearing ''sexy'' clothes. They claim the move will check rape cases and restore ''social order''.
One MP in the north-western state of Rajasthan called for a ban on skirts for schoolgirls to keep them away from ''men's lustful gazes''.
The order in Matapa was issued after a formal meeting with villagers, council officials and teachers on Sunday. ''Almost every villager pressed us to ban the mobile phones use by the schoolgirls saying they are proving quite dangerous for the society and corrupting traditional values,'' the local village council head, Sushma Singh, said on Tuesday.
Protesters were angered by the news. ''Our sister will have died in vain if all that is happening after is our fear is greater and ladies are more unfree,'' said Deepti Anand, a 21-year-old student in Delhi.

A true story though foggy in a mystical, magical sort of way.
Her hair golden, flashing in the sun. Her skin, sun-kissed. Her existence — no nonsense, strong, opinionated. There was no negotiating. After all she was 3 years older. I remember a dream room. A beautiful little girl's bedroom, in order. Perfection. Delicate trinkets placed carefully on the bureau. Clouds of powder puff and perfume floating in the air. Colorful, character poster images hung neatly, adored. Bedding for a princess complete with stuffed, talking dolls and comfort.
I'm just 5 or 6, holding an apple-sized lump in my throat. I have to leave. Again, I have to leave? Really? Please, let me stay just a while longer. This being the opposite of my life, I find refuge here. Maybe it was the normalcy of it? Maybe. It wasn't just my cousin or her room. It was my aunt, my grandma, my grandpa, the charming small town, the community. The bustling, healthy activity. Life's rhythmic heartbeat seemed to live right here. Tears streamed quietly as I'm whisked out of town.
Months later. It's dark. I smell rain. I smell earth. Groggy from the night drive but excited about my return. "Come on," she says. "Let's go play!" We find ourselves lost in hours of play. I remember grandma's backyard. Organized patterns of blossom lay gingerly, sprawling past a small greenhouse. Gorgeous fuchsia baskets sway, wispy above our heads. "Pop one," she says. "Pop it!" I follow along, popping one after another. There are shades of pink, yellow, and purple everywhere. Pansies dance happily under an oversized cherry tree. We found ourselves masters at dodging busy bees bustling around apple trees. Fragrant roses guard the entrance. The milk has arrived. Cold, thick glass tucked neatly in the box on the front porch. I slip my hand through the metal mail slot in the door. I'm finally here. I'm back.
Fresh, crisp aroma of cucumber in the kitchen. Lunchtime. First, competition to see who can get their hands the soapiest. Fluffy clouds cleansing away the wonders of the backyard. While reaching to dry, water drops race up tickling the underside of my arm. Time to sit. We are served. Giggles. I remember all-out, pee-pee dance giggles. Shhhh. We eat quietly. We lock eyes. Some how my lima beans would magically turn into cottage cheese. And mystical forces would turn her cottage cheese into lima beans! It was our pact. Our little secret. The first of many.
"Today we skip!" she says, slating the activities. "Wait! I'll be right back. " Faint in the background, I hear: "Can we go around the block, PLEASE?" She returns, chin-up, grin on her face, taking obvious pride in her top-notch negotiating skills; off we go. Skipping along, chanting, "Don't step on a crack, you'll break your mother's back!" Kicking pebbles and pine cones along the way.
Around her, I had the pleasure of being the youngest. In the real world I am the oldest of five children. Her presence is more like a big sister than a cousin; she held my heart and great influence at a very young age. A trickster at times. "Close your eyes," she'd say. "No really, close them." "Don't peek!" A hint of something would graze my lips. I'm thinking, "What is it this time?" A green bean, fresh from the vine? A potato bug?! Or yes, yes, yes a sweet piece of candy? No, not this time. "Okay, bite!" she says. I bite. Oh! Hot! Hot! Hot! A dastardly belly laugh follows. She's done it again. A pepper, a hot pepper, of course. You would think I would learn. Maybe I didn't want to.
But I can't swim! I would think, upset. Knots in my stomach. She would glide under the water near my feet, grab hold, and yank me under. Panic would set in. Off she would go. Content with being left behind I cling to life at the side of the pool, regrouping, spitting, gathering air for the next round. A little playful sibling rivalry? Possibly. Since she was an only child I can only assume she craved it. Looking back I might have been having cravings of my own, eagerly seeking someone older, more "kidwise" to come along and toughen me up.
As time goes by, we grow. It's deep summer. Waves of heat distort views of the valley. A hint of concord grape rides the warm afternoon breeze. We are barefoot, always barefoot. Hot pavement. Too hot for tender, little toes. Heading "home," snug under one arm, we each carry neatly rolled bath towels. Each towel contains a wet, chlorine fumed, sun-faded bathing suit. A must-have in this hot, sleepy, little town. "The Pool" was a haven. The "social network" of our youth in the '70s. Announcements, competition, accomplishments, and relationships flourished there. The vending machine snack hardly touches the oversized hunger pang from hours of hard swimming and play. Faces tight, our eyes are red, we are beat. Exhausted. Slumber soon.
Grandma's tiny home sheltered artful decor and a sense of settle. I remember musical, ticking chimes announcing the time. Velvet petals arranged lazily in the glass pitcher. Grandpa arriving home evident by the squeak and slap sound of the back door hinge. He leans in for a quick, playful smooch. Grandma shoos him away. She's giving him a sideways glance. "Hi squirt," he would say. I stand guard with a shy little grin, steady, ready to flee from the whisker burn headed my way! I reach over, pull hard. Snap! His suspenders my only defense within reach. He pretends to give chase. My heart jumps! More giggles. I head for the backyard.
There she is, my sleepy cousin resting in the grass. I lay beside her. A daisy chain busy in the making. Crickets break into song as the evening sets. I reach for her hand. She knows. I know too. I have to leave. Again, I have to leave. Really? Please, let me stay just a little while longer.

I just realized I almost don't even buy discs anymore thanks to Amazon streaming. Can stream to any TV in my house now, plus Kindles, and lots of movies are coming out on streaming well before their DVD/BD release date. Monsters University is available already to stream, doesn't come out on disc until 10/29!
I don't, but what sucks is that I bought a CD or two on download and then had my MP3 player and computer die and then they were gone.
CDs are completely dead. DVD is on its way out and I give blu ray 10 more years tops before that is phase out too. That is why Redbox is trying to get into the instant streaming business because they know they are screwed in the future.
"The greatest risk in life is not taking one"
I've occasionally bought (or gift-listed) CD's in the last few years just because I have an older car, but I've made it clear to anybody that would get me gifts not to bother with DVDs. Not trying to be a jerk about it, but I started feeling bad about them wasting their money.
Don't buy CD's, don't buy mp3's, don't stream except at work. At home I only play and buy vinyl.
I don't buy music CD's anymore.
I do buy TV shows on DVD still though. The good part is that I may be the only one, so those things are cheap. I don't stream movies at all.
With the invention of online porn I haven't spent money on DVDs in years.
Oh, you aren't talking about porn?
#TeamProhm #ProhmanEmpire #ProhmanColiseum
I still buy DVDs, just bought Star Trek: Into Darkness and Iron Man 3 last week. I don't buy CDs anymore though
I buy CD's when I can. I like having something tangible, plus I can't play my ipod in my car so CD's help with that too.
Nope, not really. I stream quite a bit for TV shows. For movies I still prefer to rent the blu-ray. I just don't buy as I don't have the time to re-watch most stuff. Now if audio and video quality for streaming could catch up to blu-ray, that would be the final nail in the coffin for me.
It's gotta be a really good movie for me to buy a hard copy. Sometimes I will buy a 5$ movie that I like just so I can watch it whenever.
The only time I buy CDs is when I want to support the artist, but honestly they don't get much per disc anymore anyways. I will then just rip it onto my computer and keep the hard copy for safety.

I'll be buying the new Pearl Jam CD (Lightning Bolt) when it comes out a week from today, even though I've been streaming it live on iTunes all day today.
There are a small number of bands that I still buy CDs from:
Pearl Jam
The Nadas
Social Distortion
In my car, I listen to CDs or talk radio. At the office or at home, I stream Pandora or iHeartRadio, sometimes stream all my CDs which are on my computer thru iTunes.

Yeah, it does kind of suck you didn't back up your stuff.
But I'm not even talking downloads, talking pure in the cloud available anywhere with internet.

A 55-year-old Kenton-area man has been taken to Bayhealth-Kent General Hospital after holding off police inside his home for four-and-a-half hours on Wednesday.
The incident began at approximately 3 p.m., said Delaware State Police spokesman Sgt. Paul Shavack, when troopers received a call about a suicidal man who had barricaded himself in a home in the 1000 block West Deer Trail Road, Kenton.
Shavack said Special Operations Response Team members went into the house at approximately 7:30 p.m., found the man, and took him into custody without incident.
There were no injuries as a result, he added.
Residents evacuated from the area were allowed to return to their homes, and roads in the White tail development were reopened, he said.

Kids and kids at heart who "Dare to Dream" of seeing the magic of Disney live and in person will see those dreams come true at EngergySolutions Arena.
Disney on Ice: Dare to Dream, starting March 6, will feature scenes from The Princess and the Frog, Tangled and Cinderella, along with characters like Mickey, Minnie, Donald and Goofy. Fans of other princesses are in luck, too. Jasmine, Ariel and the whole gang will be there.
Out of all the princesses, skater Vicky Black is partial to Cinderella. And it's not just because she plays the princess in the show, alongside her real life and on-ice Prince Charming. "I have played the role of Cinderella for almost seven years," she says. "I like that classic fairy tale, rags-to-riches story, and I just love to get on the ice everyday and bring that story to life."
Black began skating when she was 7 years old, when a neighbor invited her to her local ice rink in Bangor, Northern Ireland. She went on to become British Junior Champion, Northern Ireland Junior Champion and represented GBR in international competition.
We chatted with Vicky about her work with Disney on Ice, what fans can expect from Dare to Dream and what life is like on the road.
First, tell us a little about working with your husband James.
"I feel very fortunate to do a job that I love so much and get to do it with the person I trust so much and adore. We do pairs in the show, and you have to trust your partner because he's lifting you over his head. I feel very lucky I get to do that with him everyday."
You also play a flapper in The Princess and the Frog portion. How do you approach these roles?
"Whether it's being part of an ensemble or being Cinderella, it's just getting into the character . . . For the flapper, you just feel the vibe and get up there, and everyone's having a good time, and there's jazzy music, and you just picture yourself on the street in New Orleans. With Cinderella, it's so dreamy . . . I love to find those little differences and really get into each character."
Have you performed in SLC before?
"I've played Salt Lake City twice before. I really enjoy it there. I love the mountains and I love to go skiing, and there's some great restaurants. We love to get out there and explore the cities we're in every week, and we're certainly excited to come back to Salt Lake."
Any restaurant you really love in SLC?
"The Oyster Bar! I loved it there, and we're going to have to take a trip back."
What's life like on the road for Disney on Ice?
"It doesn't feel like work everyday. When we get up, we don't have that Monday morning dread some people have when they go to their jobs. It's just great to go and get to dress up as a Disney princess and skate—the kids in the audience just love it, and they're so sucked into your story."
Tell me a bit more about the interaction with the kids.
"During the show, there's a few moments when kids get to be right in the action. Prince Charming and the duke actually try the slipper on a couple girls in the audience . . . There's another moment in the show, where a child helps Repunzel and Flynn lift a lantern into the sky. That's a really special moment that often brings people to tears. And when we skate, we like to look out and make that connection with people sitting and watching. I always try to look for the little blue dresses out there—the girls dressed up as Cinderella—it's really special to see them light up when you give a little wave.
What's the most challenging part?
"It can be physically demanding. We have up to 12 shows a week, and we're moving from city to city living out of two suit cases . . . But as far as I'm concerned, the pros outweigh the cons."
We also hear you're really into yoga and Pilates. Does that help with the physical challenge?
"I really wish I found yoga when I was competing. I initially started doing yoga just to gain flexibility and a little more strength, and it turned into a real mind workout for me. It's great for what skating does to your body, but I found myself much calmer and much more collected, too."
What are some of your favorite places you've toured?
"I loved Australia—we were there twice now. Everyone thinks Sydney is going to be the biggest thing in Australia, but personally, I loved Melbourne. I also loved Thailand. When we were there, we did a lot of sightseeing and exploring. And one of my favorite places is Santarini, Greece. It's probably the most beautiful place I've ever been. And I love the diversity in the States. You can go from Florida where it's sunny and humid to California where it's a whole different kind of vibe, and you've got the mountains in Salt Lake City, and if you make your way northwest, it's rainy and so beautiful."
How do you gear up for a show?
"I like to do a little yoga to warm up, so I get on my mat and stretch it out. Then we put our makeup together—there's a whole group of us in one makeup room and that's a fun bonding time. We generally have note from our performance director who will watch the show everyday and give us feedback on things we're doing great and not so great . . . And right before the show, there's some superstitions everyone has. My left skate will always go on before my right skate. If I put my right skate on first, it has to come off."
With all these princesses, is this still a show boys would enjoy?
"I see so many boys in the audience having so much fun, and I've heard from so many moms who have said 'I took my boys and I didn't think they'd love it, and they loved it.' Yes, it's the princesses' stories, but in those princess stories, every princess has a prince. Plus there's some favorite characters like Flynn, Maximus the Horse, Louis the gator and Ray the firefly."

text: In the 1950s and '60s, Cleveland, Ohio was the place for rock and roll acts to make their U.S. debuts, test their nerves on live TV, or appear in a venue few stars would dare to try today: high-school auditoriums. George Shuba, the "Grandfather of Rock and Roll Photography," was a ubiquitous figure on the area music scene. Cleveland Rocks focuses on the years 1963-69, when the Fab Four, Jimi Hendrix, the Rolling Stones, Jackie Wilson, and the Doors sent local teens into joyful hysterics. While the subjects of Shuba's luminous silver gelatin prints are ostensibly the musicians, it is the faces around them that often stand out: happy teenaged boys in suits and ties, girls with short cotton dresses and stiffly-sprayed beehives, lines of wary, tough-looking Cleveland policemen prepared to force back the crowds. This exhibition is more than a glimpse into the pop-music scene in a blue-collar Midwestern city: it encapsulates an era.

|Small, Flockhart are All-WAC
DENVER – The Western Athletic Conference announced its 2012 women's soccer All-WAC honors on Wednesday at its pre-championship banquet and selected two University of Idaho players among those honored.
Vandal senior Chelsea Small became the first four-time all-conference honoree in school history with her First-Team All-WAC selection, while senior midfielder Jill Flockhart was All-WAC for a third-consecutive season as a member of the Second Team.
"It's a testament to their hard work and they'll be the first to tell you it's because of the hard work of their teammates," Idaho head coach Peter Showler said of the honors. "They've shown that individually within games and the other coaches around the league recognize that. To be recognized by your opposition, it means you're doing well."
Small, a senior from Solana Beach, Calif. (Torrey Pines HS), tied for third in the WAC this season in total goals (8) and points (17) and led the league during the regular season with 87 shots. She also tied for the WAC lead with four game-winning goals during the season.
Of her eight scores this season, five came during WAC play, which was tied as second-most in the league during WAC competition. She also tied for the league lead with two game-winners in conference play.
Small is Idaho's all-time leader in career goals (39), points (91), game-winning goals (16) and shots (400). She also holds Idaho's single-season records for goals, points, game-winners and shots and ranks in the top 10 in WAC history in goals and shots.
Small's four First-Team All-WAC honors make her the first Vandal woman since basketball player Alli Nieman to be a four-time first-team all-conference honoree in a team sport. Nieman was a four-time First-Team All-Big West Conference honoree from 1997-2000. The last Vandal woman to achieve the feat in any sport is Christie Gordon, who was a First-Team All-WAC honoree four years in a row in the women's 100-meter hurdles in track and field from 2006-10.
"That's an amazing achievement," Showler said. "It's from everything she embodies about soccer, on and off the pitch. It's a great reward when people recognize all your hard work, and to do it four years in a row is absolutely incredible."
Flockhart, a senior from Salmon Arm, British Columbia (Salmon Arm Secondary), is tied for third on the team with eight points this season and ranked second among Vandals with six assists during the regular season. Flockhart dished up four of her six assists during league play and ranked third individually in assists during WAC matches.
Flockhart moved into second all-time at Idaho in career assists this season with 17. She also ranks third all-time in game-winning goals (5), fourth in total points (35) and eighth in career goals (8) in Idaho soccer history.
The WAC honor is the third of Flockhart's career. She was a First-Team All-WAC selection in 2010 and 2011.
"It's down to consistency and the high level of performance, week in and week out, and it's justly rewarded," Showler said.
Regular-season co-champions Denver and Utah State led all schools with seven and five All-WAC selections, respectively. Seattle U had three picks, while Idaho and Louisiana Tech each earned a pair and UTSA, San Jose State and Texas State had one each.
Denver junior forward Kristen Hamilton earned the WAC Offensive Player of the Year honor, while Utah State senior Natalie Norris was the WAC Defensive Player of the Year for a third-consecutive season. Texas State freshman forward Lynsey Curry was the WAC Freshman of the Year and Denver's Jeff Hooker was named WAC Coach of the Year.

Gardening Articles: Edibles :: Vegetables
Breeding Your Own Squash (page 5 of 6)
by Carol Deppe
Harvesting Seeds
When your squash and pumpkins reach full maturity, it's time to harvest the seeds you want to save. Winter squash and pumpkins are ordinarily picked from the vine at full maturity, so harvesting them for seed saving involves nothing special. Summer squash, however, are usually eaten when immature. To save the seed of a summer squash, you must allow it to grow to full maturity, which is long past the best time for eating it.
The seed of squash and pumpkins continues to ripen for about three weeks after you've harvested the fruit. For seeds of maximum plumpness, vigor, and viability, wait at least three weeks after harvest before cutting the fruit open and cleaning the seeds. You can remove and clean the seed up to several months later if you wish.
Cleaning. I use two somewhat different methods, depending on whether I am saving seed from just one fruit or from many of one type in a single lot. To process the seeds of several fruits of one type (or a whole field's worth) at once, I use a scaled-down version of commercial processing involving a fermentation step (see "Processing Big Batches of Seed," below). Usually I save seed from only one squash or pumpkin at a time, however. In that case, a simple washing procedure produces beautiful, clean, loose seed.
Open the fruit and remove the seeds and attached debris. (At this point, you can cut up the flesh, pop the chunks into the oven or microwave, and cook them up.) Put the seeds and debris in a big bowl with at least 20 times as much water as seeds. Work the seeds and debris with your hands to free the seeds. (If the debris and seeds are fairly dry, you may need to let them soak for 5 minutes or so before working them.) Fresh seeds float, but most of the debris is slightly denser than water, so it sinks. Scoop the seeds off the surface of the water into another container, and pour out the debris-containing water. Repeat the process if necessary to eliminate all the large chunks of debris.
Next, put the seeds in a wire strainer, and swish them around gently to scrape and further clean them by gently rubbing them against the strainer. Then clean off the fine debris with a stream of water through the strainer.
Drying. There are two tricks to drying seed. The first is to dry at just the right speed. You want to dry it fast enough, especially initially, so that the seed doesn't have a chance to absorb moisture from the washing water and begin to germinate, losing viability. (As long as the seed is in the fruit, germination inhibitors prevent germination. As soon as the seed is washed, however, it becomes much more vulnerable.) On the other hand, seed that dries too quickly cracks and also loses viability.
The second trick is to rustle, fluff, and separate the seeds at a certain stage in the drying process so that they become loose and separate and don't stick together in big clumps.
I usually spread seeds for drying in a single layer on a screened tray in a food dehydrator and dry them for an hour or two at 95oF. If you don't have a dehydrator, you can leave small amounts of seeds in the strainer and set it in front of a fan indoors for 2 or 3 hours for the initial drying. For larger amounts, use a window screen or piece of hardware cloth and a fan indoors. You can also dry seeds on trays. But whatever you do, don't dry the seeds on paper, cardboard, or cloth because the seeds will stick to those materials.
You can also dry seeds in a shady place outdoors if the weather is warm and dry. Keep a close eye on the seed, however, to guard it from birds, squirrels, and other seed-coveting critters.
The first stage of drying is over when the surface of the seeds is dry and they stick to each other and to the screen, but not too tightly. At this stage, I "rustle up" the seeds. I rub my gloved hand around the dehydrator tray, strainer, or screen to separate the seeds from the surface and from each other. If the seeds dry completely without this rustling-up step, they stick very tightly and are hard to separate without damaging them.
After that step, I spread the seeds in a single layer in a tray, plate, or other shallow container and allow them to finish drying a few days or more without further attention.
A seed is completely dry when its covering snaps when broken in two. If it flexes or bends, it isn't dry. Transfer fully dried seed to envelopes, jars, or other containers for storage.
Storing. If stored in a cool, dry place, seed will keep for six years or more. It will keep even longer in glass jars stored in the freezer.
If you freeze seed, remove the jar from the freezer a day or more before opening the jar so the seed can come up to room temperature slowly and the main supply of seed does not become coated with condensation.

The world has dramatically changed during the last 20 years. In the 1980ies the European Peace Research has focused on the overcoming of the Cold War, nowadays conflict studies are confronted with a variety of new challenges. Such include conflicts and wars in Europe and along its periphery like in the Caucasus, in the Balkans or in the Middle East as well as the dangers of proliferation, climate change, transnational terrorism and its impacts. Just as much the current financial crisis, the problems of the European integration, the unequal development of certain regions within the European Union, as well as the conflict between the northern and southern hemisphere of the world society with its increasing gap between the rich and the poor, the responsibility of the European Union in conjunction with the crisis and humanitarian catastrophes in Africa, the migration and the refugees, the energy crisis and also the new rearmament are demanding a solution.
The end of the confrontation between the West and the East was the first step into a peaceful world, but nevertheless the new emerging regional conflicts within and around Europe in the 1990ies as well as 9/11 and the current War on Terror have been a setback. Meanwhile war has become again an instrument of politics while Europe as well as other world regions are effected by it. The hope for a "peace dividend" after the end of the Cold War has been disillusioned. Meanwhile even the European Union has become a global player, which is involved into military interventions.
In the face of a global situation which is characterised by crisis and conflicts, EPU aims to enhance peaceful processes and to counter violent conflicts.
EPU currently provides three areas of research expertises:
- Peace and Conflict Research
- European Peace and Security Policy & European Union as a peaceful power
- Peacebuilding

As we come to the beginning of a new century, we find that the entire vista of modern poetry has dramatically changed.Poems for the Millenniumcaptures the essence of that change, and unlike any anthology available today it reveals the revolutionary concepts at the very heart of contemporary poetry. International in its coverage, these volumes bring together the poets and poetry movements that radically altered the ways that art and language express the human condition.Volume 2offers a dazzling chronicle of the second "great awakening" of experimental poetry in the twentieth century. Ranging from the period of World War II through the cold war to the onset of the twenty-first century, this volume presents two "galleries" of individual poets such as Holan, Olson, Rukeyser, Jabegrave;s, Celan, Mac Low, Pasolini, Bachmann, Finlay, Ginsberg, Adonis, Rich, U Tam'si, Baraka, Takahashi, Waldman, and Bei Dao. There are also samplings of local and international movements: the Beats, the Vienna Group, the Cobra poets and artists, the Arabic-language Tammuzi poets, the creators of a new "Concrete Poetry," the "postwar poets" of Japan, the Italian Novissimi and Avan-Guardia, the Chinese Misty Poets, and the North American Language Poets. In addition, an extended section is devoted to examples of the "art of the manifesto" and two smaller groupings of traditional "oral poets" and of experimenters with machine art and cyberpoetics. Poet-editors Jerome Rothenberg and Pierre Joris provide informative and irreverent commentaries throughout. They challenge old truths and propose alternative directions, in the tradition of the manifestos that have marked the art and poetry of the twentieth century. The result is both an essential resource for experiencing the full range of contemporary poetic possibilities and an arresting statement on the future of poetry in the millennium ahead.

Ah, the problem is a pre PHP 5.2.0 bug as stated in the PHP docs: {quote} It is worth noting that before PHP 5.2.0 the __toString method was only called when it was directly combined with echo() or print(). {quote}
Could you provide some sample code?
I'm having this same issue. In RC2 I had to specify the from() in the select even if the select came from Zend_Db_Table, then in the final 1.6 release, it throws this exception.
I seem to be unable to reproduce this issue. Luke, could you perhaps provide some sample code as well?
Hmm... I must've overlooked the fact that it's a Zend_Db_Expr. Still, casting to a string should call __toString just the same. Anyway, thanks for this. I'll have a look at a fix in about an hour from posting this comment :)
