In January, 2.8 million persons were marginally attached to the labor force, essentially unchanged from a year earlier. (The data are not seasonally adjusted.) These individuals were not in the labor force,
wanted and were available for work, and had looked for a job sometime in the prior 12 months. They were not counted as unemployed because they had not searched for work in the 4 weeks preceding the
survey. Table A-16.)
I will let Rush Limbaugh explain it, he does a much better job than I…
RUSH: So all you people that are finding jobs out there, isn't it great, isn't it fabulous? Everywhere you look people are getting hired. You can see it in the unemployment number. Why, do you know we created seasonally adjusted 200-some-odd-thousand jobs? Do you know what the raw number is? From the Bureau of Labor Statistics' own table, the raw number, before there's any seasonal adjustment, the raw number is that from December to January, we lost two million jobs.
RUSH: Don't ask me about seasonal adjustment. I've been trying to figure this out all morning, and I can't. But the raw numbers, 130 million jobs in December, 128 million jobs in January, give or take a couple hundred thousand either side. But when the seasonal adjustments take place, there is a gain of 200, whatever they're reporting, 33,000 jobs. Now, what's happening is the labor force is shrinking. There are fewer jobs. Even the Drive-Bys, so excited, they can't wait to report the good news, but even they are reporting that the labor force participation rate, number of jobs out there, is continuing to dwindle, and most of the jobs being created are low wage.
In December, the number of jobs in this country — this the from the Bureau of Labor Statistics' own table today, they do the unemployment numbers. The number of jobs in December, 132,952,000. The number of jobs in January, 130,400… so there are actually two and half million fewer people working in January than there were in December. But those are raw numbers. That's before the seasonal adjustment take us place. Table B-1 is where this is from, from the BLS numbers. Now, I don't pretend to understand the seasonal adjustment. I'm not taking issue with it. It seems like the statistical formula that's used, given what they're trying to accomplish, makes sense. All I know is that the raw number is down two and a half million jobs. I'm not making it up and it's not in a Drive-By story and it's not some Looney Toon blog. It's the government. The Bureau of Labor Statistics.
But none of that's gonna matter. None of it's gonna matter. I don't want to be an "I told you so," but way back last year, even recently toward the end of last year, this being an election year, I predicted. But you knew. You knew what was gonna happen when this year started. You knew that the statistics are that no president has ever been reelected when the unemployment rate's over 8%. So guess what it's gonna be by the time we get to Election Day? It's just that simple.
"Long-term stress remains at the U6 measure." That's 15.1% and that's the combined total of people who've given up looking for work. Remember, the unemployment number is people still looking for work and can't find any, up to 99 weeks of unemployment, maybe a little longer, but the U6 is everybody, including those who've quit. It's 15.1%, and the unemployment rate for blacks, 13.6%. For teenagers, 23.2%, and for Hispanics, ten and a half percent. And yet everybody is harping on Romney for not caring about the poor. It's Obama's that has these numbers.
Now, more from Tyler Durden at Zero Hedge. "A month ago, we joked when we said that for Obama to get the unemployment rate to negative by election time, all he has to do is to crush the labor force participation rate to about 55%," meaning the universe of jobs. "Looks like the good folks at the BLS heard us: it appears that the people not in the labor force," the number of jobs not available to be filled, "exploded by an unprecedented record 1.2 million. No, that's not a typo: 1.2 million people dropped out of the labor force in one month!"
That's part of this two and half million fewer jobs. Are you hearing me on this, folks? It is corrupt as it can be. Well, now, the wait a minute, though. There's nothing new here in the seasonal adjustment. Normally we never talk raw numbers. Nobody ever reports or talks about raw numbers. I happened to see today the raw numbers, and little red flags are going up, my curiosity is being piqued here. And then I see that the labor force participation rate, 1.2 million people dropped out of the labor force in one month, and it happens to be December to January. "So as the labor force increased from 153.9 million to 154.4 million, the non institutional population increased by 242.3 million meaning, those not in the labor force surged from 86.7 million to 87.9 million. Which means that the civilian labor force tumbled to a fresh 30 year low of 63.7%."
That means the number of people working and looking is just 63% of our population. When you take those numbers and when you shrink the labor force, you are reducing the overall universe of jobs, and therefore the unemployment rate can do nothing but come down. It can do nothing but fall when you reduce the universe number that employed and unemployed are being measured against. Now, we noted the other day, the Congressional Budget Office, let's not forget their report. We're looking at 1% economic growth in 2013, 2.2% economic growth this year. And the CBO report that we had admits that the labor force numbers are skewing the real unemployment number down.
The Employment Situation for February is scheduled to be released on Friday, March 9, 2012, at
8:30 a.m. (EST).

What is your opinion on their relative merits and faults?
In my opinion, sombo guys have better takedowns and are more well rounded, but not as good as BJJ guys in matwork.
BJJ guys are spectacular at groundfighting, but in all the schools i've visited, not many work on takedowns in a significant way.
I'm not talking style vs style. I am saying, who has the better training methods, and which one do you prefer? And which one is better for MMA?

Bay County Sheriff Frank McKeithen has new information on the homeless issue in Bay County Tuesday morning.
Last week, Bay County commissioners asked McKeithen to meet with local police chiefs to determine if there is a way to distinguish between homeless people and vagrants. They want that information before supporting a new homeless shelter. He discovered 380 people, who listed the rescue mission as their address, have been arrested this year alone.
33 sex offenders and or sexual predators currently live within a mile of the mission.
McKeithen's report identifies the area west of the Hathaway Bridge from Woodlawn to Walmart, as well as Laguna Beach, and the Panama City Rescue Mission area as the main homeless havens.
The sheriff is still collecting data.

Nvidia Teams With HP To Offer Massive "GPU Starter" Kit
NVidia and HP have teamed up to create a new GPU "Starter" kit aimed at bringing GPU computing to a wider audience without getting into all the fine details of system configuration. However, their new "starter" kit is anything but entry-level.
The system contains eight ProLiant SL390 G7 servers, packed full of 24 M2070 GPUs, 16 CPUs, and its preconfigured with CUDA 4.0. The servers, presumably loaded with quad-cores, offer a respectable 32-cores of additional CPU power in addition to the copious amounts of GPU performance. The M2070 GPU that's included in the package is a Fermi-based part, with 6GB of RAM per GPU.
With a price tag of $99,000, it's a bit beyond your average hobbyist. It's a great steal for companies tho as the total system is offered at about a 50% discount of the total package, plus contains their special GPU development tools.

Optimal Strategies for Stopping Near the Top of a Sequence
Date: December 2015
Creator: Islas Anguiano, Jose Angel
Description: In Chapter 1 the classical secretary problem is introduced. Chapters 2 and 3 are variations of this problem. Chapter 2, discusses the problem of maximizing the probability of stopping with one of the two highest values in a Bernoulli random walk with arbitrary parameter p and finite time horizon n. The optimal strategy (continue or stop) depends on a sequence of threshold values (critical probabilities) which has an oscillating pattern. Several properties of this sequence have been proved by Dr. Allaart. Further properties have been recently proved. In Chapter 3, a gambler will observe a finite sequence of continuous random variables. After he observes a value he must decide to stop or continue taking observations. He can play two different games A) Win at the maximum or B) Win within a proportion of the maximum. In the first section the sequence to be observed is independent. It is shown that for each n>1, theoptimal win probability in game A is bounded below by (1-1/n)^{n-1}. It is accomplished by reducing the problem to that of choosing the maximum of a special sequence of two-valued random variables and applying the sum-the-odds theorem of Bruss (2000). Secondly, it is assumed the sequence is ...

Contributions to Descriptive Set Theory
Date: August 2015
Creator: Atmai, Rachid
Description: In this dissertation we study closure properties of pointclasses, scales on sets of reals and the models L[T2n], which are very natural canonical inner models of ZFC. We first characterize projective-like hierarchies by their associated ordinals. This solves a conjecture of Steel and a conjecture of Kechris, Solovay, and Steel. The solution to the first conjecture allows us in particular to reprove a strong partition property result on the ordinal of a Steel pointclass and derive a new boundedness principle which could be useful in the study of the cardinal structure of L(R). We then develop new methods which produce lightface scales on certain sets of reals. The methods are inspired by Jackson's proof of the Kechris-Martin theorem. We then generalize the Kechris-Martin Theorem to all the Π12n+1 pointclasses using Jackson's theory of descriptions. This in turns allows us to characterize the sets of reals of a certain initial segment of the models L[T2n]. We then use this characterization and the generalization of Kechris-Martin theorem to show that the L[T2n] are unique. This generalizes previous work of Hjorth. We then characterize the L[T2n] in term of inner models theory, showing that they actually are constructible models over direct limit of ...

Reduced Ideals and Periodic Sequences in Pure Cubic Fields
Date: August 2015
Creator: Jacobs, G. Tony
Description: The "infrastructure" of quadratic fields is a body of theory developed by Dan Shanks, Richard Mollin and others, in which they relate "reduced ideals" in the rings and sub-rings of integers in quadratic fields with periodicity in continued fraction expansions of quadratic numbers. In this thesis, we develop cubic analogs for several infrastructure theorems. We work in the field K=Q(), where 3=m for some square-free integer m, not congruent to ±1, modulo 9. First, we generalize the definition of a reduced ideal so that it applies to K, or to any number field. Then we show that K has only finitely many reduced ideals, and provide an algorithm for listing them. Next, we define a sequence based on the number alpha that is periodic and corresponds to the finite set of reduced principal ideals in K. Using this rudimentary infrastructure, we are able to establish results about fundamental units and reduced ideals for some classes of pure cubic fields. We also introduce an application to Diophantine approximation, in which we present a 2-dimensional analog of the Lagrange value of a badly approximable number, and calculate some examples.

Restricting Invariants and Arrangements of Finite Complex Reflection Groups
Date: August 2015
Creator: Berardinelli, Angela
Description: Suppose that G is a finite, unitary reflection group acting on a complex vector space V and X is a subspace of V. Define N to be the setwise stabilizer of X in G, Z to be the pointwise stabilizer, and C=N/Z. Then restriction defines a homomorphism from the algebra of G-invariant polynomial functions on V to the algebra of C-invariant functions on X. In my thesis, I extend earlier work by Douglass and Röhrle for Coxeter groups to the case where G is a complex reflection group of type G(r,p,n) in the notation of Shephard and Todd and X is in the lattice of the reflection arrangement of G. The main result characterizes when the restriction mapping is surjective in terms of the exponents of G and C and their reflection arrangements.

Trees and Ordinal Indices in C(k) Spaces for K Countable Compact
Date: August 2015
Creator: Dahal, Koshal Raj
Description: In the dissertation we study the C(K) spaces focusing on the case when K is countable compact and more specifically, the structure of C() spaces for < ω1 via special type of trees that they contain. The dissertation is composed of three major sections. In the first section we give a detailed proof of the theorem of Bessaga and Pelczynski on the isomorphic classification of C() spaces. In due time, we describe the standard bases for C(ω) and prove that the bases are monotone. In the second section we consider the lattice-trees introduced by Bourgain, Rosenthal and Schechtman in C() spaces, and define rerooting and restriction of trees. The last section is devoted to the main results. We give some lower estimates of the ordinal-indices in C(ω). We prove that if the tree in C(ω) has large order with small constant then each function in the root must have infinitely many big coordinates. Along the way we deduce some upper estimates for c0 and C(ω), and give a simple proof of Cambern's result that the Banach-Mazur distance between c0 and c = C(ω) is equal to 3.

Condition-dependent Hilbert Spaces for Steepest Descent and Application to the Tricomi Equation
Date: August 2014
Creator: Montgomery, Jason W.
Description: A steepest descent method is constructed for the general setting of a linear differential equation paired with uniqueness-inducing conditions which might yield a generally overdetermined system. The method differs from traditional steepest descent methods by considering the conditions when defining the corresponding Sobolev space. The descent method converges to the unique solution to the differential equation so that change in condition values is minimal. The system has a solution if and only if the first iteration of steepest descent satisfies the system. The finite analogue of the descent method is applied to example problems involving finite difference equations. The well-posed problems include a singular ordinary differential equation and Laplace's equation, each paired with respective Dirichlet-type conditions. The overdetermined problems include a first-order nonsingular ordinary differential equation with Dirichlet-type conditions and the wave equation with both Dirichlet and Neumann conditions. The method is applied in an investigation of the Tricomi equation, a long-studied equation which acts as a prototype of mixed partial differential equations and has application in transonic flow. The Tricomi equation has been studied for at least ninety years, yet necessary and sufficient conditions for existence and uniqueness of solutions on an arbitrary mixed domain remain unknown. The domains ...

Creator: Senadheera, Jayantha
Description: In this thesis, we introduce a new space of Hermitian Jacobi forms, and we determine its structure. As an application, we study heat cycles of Hermitian Jacobi forms, and we establish a criterion for the existence of U(p) congruences of Hermitian Jacobi forms. We demonstrate that criterion with some explicit examples. Finally, in the appendix we give tables of Fourier series coefficients of several Hermitian Jacobi forms.

Fundamental Issues in Support Vector Machines
Date: May 2014
Creator: McWhorter, Samuel P.
Description: This dissertation considers certain issues in support vector machines (SVMs), including a description of their construction, aspects of certain exponential kernels used in some SVMs, and a presentation of an algorithm that computes the necessary elements of their operation with proof of convergence. In its first section, this dissertation provides a reasonably complete description of SVMs and their theoretical basis, along with a few motivating examples and counterexamples. This section may be used as an accessible, stand-alone introduction to the subject of SVMs for the advanced undergraduate. Its second section provides a proof of the positive-definiteness of a certain useful function here called E and dened as follows: Let V be a complex inner product space. Let N be a function that maps a vector from V to its norm. Let p be a real number between 0 and 2 inclusive and for any in V , let ( be N() raised to the p-th power. Finally, let a be a positive real number. Then E() is exp(()). Although the result is not new (other proofs are known but involve deep properties of stochastic processes) this proof is accessible to advanced undergraduates with a decent grasp of linear algebra. Its ...

Maximum Likelihood Estimation of Logistic Sinusoidal Regression Models
Date: December 2013
Creator: Weng, Yu
Description: We consider the problem of maximum likelihood estimation of logistic sinusoidal regression models and develop some asymptotic theory including the consistency and joint rates of convergence for the maximum likelihood estimators. The key techniques build upon a synthesis of the results of Walker and Song and Li for the widely studied sinusoidal regression model and on making a connection to a result of Radchenko. Monte Carlo simulations are also presented to demonstrate the finite-sample performance of the estimators

Centers of Invariant Differential Operator Algebras for Jacobi Groups of Higher Rank
Date: August 2013
Creator: Dahal, Rabin
Description: Let G be a Lie group acting on a homogeneous space G/K. The center of the universal enveloping algebra of the Lie algebra of G maps homomorphically into the center of the algebra of differential operators on G/K invariant under the action of G. In the case that G is a Jacobi Lie group of rank 2, we prove that this homomorphism is surjective and hence that the center of the invariant differential operator algebra is the image of the center of the universal enveloping algebra. This is an extension of work of Bringmann, Conley, and Richter in the rank 1case.

Editing ship exhaust?
I apologize if this is a dumb question but how do you edit the space ship exhaust sizes? I changed the Executor to a true to scale (in comparison with the star destroyers) size but the engine exhaust is still the original size (meaning they're now just small balls floating in the middle of the engines) and I'd like to adjust them but can't find anything pertaining to them in the XML files.

Storage Visions 2014 - There is no doubting it, 4K is the buzzword at this years CES 2014 show in Las Vegas Nevada, and yesterday I got to check out my first piece of 4K hardware. The Nuvola NP-1 from Nanotech Entertainment is a small set-top box similar to Roku, but is capable of streaming 4K Video with no special connections.
Nanotech says that the Nuvola NP-1 is capable of streaming 4K Video via existing infrastructure via a 6Mb/s connection speed. The Nuvola NP-1 is based on an NVIDIA Tegra 4 processor, and is Miracast capable. Android 4.2 is running on the device and Nanotech says that it will receive regular updates to the next versions of Android as they become available.

You don't always have the time or patience to sit down with a full novel, so a collection of short stories can make the transition to bed after a long day a relaxing one. We're besotted with Big Cats: Stories ($14) by Holiday Reinhorn. We gobbled up the collection in short order - each tale takes up only a couple of pages. The title story, Big Cats, is the perfect slice of childhood friendship, though the girls are far from the necklace-sharing-Nickelodeon kind of BFFs. All of Reinhorn's characters are slightly neurotic, flawed, and surprisingly easy to connect with.

Justin Bieber's airport drama yesterday has become quite the mystery after he was detained for five hours at LAX. Bieber was returning home from Tokyo, Japan when he was detained by airport authorities. He landed at 1 p.m. and hours later his bodyguard entourage was still waiting for him to come through the gate, according to MSN Entertainment on April 25.
If Bieber didn't have such a lengthy history with law enforcement at such an early age, folks might have worried about their idol. Being detained in an airport didn't seem like anything out of the ordinary for the pop singer. It wasn't until 6:20 that Bieber came through the gate and left in a vehicle with four of his bodyguards in tow.'
Why was Bieber detained at the airport? This was a mystery, but it sounds as if the reason for his detainment is due to his bad boy history. Even Bieber latest tweet didn't address the reason for the hold-up, he just let his fans know that he was O.K. in his tweet. The pop star wrote:
"Life is good. Keep it positive always."
This was certainly short and sweet. A source suggested that Bieber's detainment might be as simple as a routine questioning. The source said:
"It was a routine secondary set of questioning that Justin has to go through now every time he comes back in the country because he's a foreign national."
Really? There are a countless number of celebrities that have taken up residence in the United States and you don't hear about a five hour detainment for "routine questioning." He didn't have a monkey with him, which was one of the problems he had previously at an airport.
He also had some problems on a flight when his foul language in the past disturbed the people in first class. He was reported to have used vulgar language in earshot of a couple of kids back then. This too didn't seem to be the case today because if it was, the other passengers would have said something.
While flying back from Australia a few years back, his language was so bad that is disrupted people to the point that a passenger had to say something to him. A mother actually confronted him and asked him to stop yelling profanities because she had two children with her, reported in an archived article from Celebuzz.
The mystery of Justin's detainment is over as the New York Daily News reports today that this "secondary questioning" will be routine for Bieber. He will go through this as long as he has an open criminal case. An LAX Police police source said:
"This kid is turning into a male Lindsay Lohan."
There you have it the mystery is solved, Justin Bieber's open court case has made him a target for this "secondary questioning." This is apparently set up to keep an eye on the folks who are in trouble with the law and who are traveling in and out of the country.
Pictures of Bieber emerging from his "secondary questioning" showed him grinning like the Cheshire Cat. None of this seems to bother the kid who was once such a big role model for kids.
Not much surprises his fans anymore, like this recent airport detainment. Why doesn't he just come right out and acknowledge his airport hold-up and tell his fans what happened? It could be that his manager wants him to just drop it and go on? Apparently it is not bothering the man-child who is just happy that "life is good."

Common Custom Rubber Stamp Questions and Answers:
What is the production process for making a custom rubber stamp?
First, you will select your design and place an order here on the shop site. Then, within 2 business days, you will receive a "proof" of the design via email from Ann Vento, our artist. You must look over the design proof and email Ann back with your approval of the design or any necessary corrections. Once you have approved the design, we will send your completed design off to the manufacturer for production. We will receive your stamp back in our offices in 2 to 3 business days where we will then package your stamp and ship it to you. The whole production process takes about 4 to 6 business days.
Am I allowed to change the design once I have seen the proof?
There will be a maximum of two reworks and/or design changes per custom design order. Typographical errors or design errors by the artist (i.e. using the wrong font) do not count towards the two reworks. Once you give approval of the final design, it will be sent to the manufacturer and you will no longer be able to make additional changes to your design.
What material is my custom stamp made from?
All custom rubber stamps are made using gray rubber which is etched on a laser machine. The laser machine actually burns the design into the rubber.
Why is there an odor to my custom stamp?
Because the custom stamps are created using a laser machine, the stamp is often left with a burnt rubber scent, which will fade over time.
How long will it take to make and ship my custom design(s)?
Each stamp takes about 4 to 6 business days to manufacture. This time includes creating the custom design, approval by the customer, manufacturing the stamp, and shipping. You should expect to receive your custom stamp within 7 to 10 business days if you live in the United States or slightly longer for an international destination.
What style can I choose and what font options do I have?
There are many styles to choose from including clean and simple designs, more intricate and elegant designs, as well as some fun and whimsical ones too. You can see the complete listing of products in the Custom Rubber Stamp section here on the shop site. Each design is set with the number of custom lines of text you may personalize as well as the option of choosing the font style for the name portion of the stamp. Please note that the font options apply ONLY to the name portion of the custom design.
Do you customize address stamps?
Yes we do! You can select from 3 styles. We have one for a 3 line stamp, or 4 line stamp, or even a 5 line stamp. Each address stamp also includes the option of selecting a graphic and font choice. Please be sure to include all mailing information exactly as you wish for it to appear on the finished design. To see each of the design options, please visit our Custom Rubber Stamp section here on the shop site.
How do I use my custom rubber stamp?
Each stamp will arrive to you with EZ Mount attached, but you will need to trim off the excess rubber around the custom design. Then you can attach your custom stamp to an acrylic block and you are ready to go! Below is an example of a custom rubber stamp, which has been trimmed and then mounted on an acrylic block.
Can I return my custom rubber stamp for a refund?
All sales are final on custom designs due to the amount of time and costs related to manufacturing your one of a kind design. Please be sure you are happy with the proof of your design as once you give your approval, there are no reworks to the final design.
If you have further questions or need assistance, please contact us anytime at firstname.lastname@example.com. We will do our very best to reply within 24 hours.
Please note: Whimsy Magazine orders are shipped separately and require separate postage and are excluded from any free shipping offers.
Thank you.

I am very new with Open Office and spread sheets in general. In a column whenever I add a new entry it changes all the letters to upper case. Is there a way to disable this? If not, many entries already have been made with lower case letters and it looks bad that the entries are the same except for their capitalization, so is there a way all the rest could be made all uppercase? For example in this one column when I try to add
A12b it changes to
A12B but it didn't use to and it looks bad now that there's a mix.
EDIT: It only happens on the exact entry T61p. For example if I type in T62p the p remains lower case.

Deputy Prime Minister and Commander of the National Guard Crown Prince Abdullah bin Abdulaziz received today a telephone call from U.S. President George W. Bush. During the conversation, they reviewed the latest developments, notably efforts to achieve peace in the region and end the Palestinians' suffering as a result of continued occupation and siege of Palestinian territories by the Israeli forces.
Crown Prince Abdullah is currently in Abha, where he arrived yesterday on a visit to Asir Province to attend the inauguration of the Fourth Exhibition of the Saudi Armed Forces.

Some of the coldest July temperatures in central Indiana in over a decade are possible tonight. The record low of 54° (set in 2004 & 1971) will very likely be eclipsed between 6am-7am Sunday morning… as I'm forecasting 50° for the low in the city. Notice many locations away from Indy's urban heat island will be in the 40s… well below the average low of 65°.
"If" Indianapolis drops below 50° it would be the first sub-50° temps in July since 2001. Regardless it will be the talk of the town in the morning, and sets the stage for one of the coolest Brickyard 400 race days ever.
If you're going to the track early I recommend a light coat. A sunny sky will give way to a building cumulus field that turns the sky to party sunny by early afternoon.
The coolest Brickyard 400 race day high of 73° in the inaugural race of 1994 will be rivaled. So will the record low maximum that was set in 1928 and 1925 at 72°. Bottom-line this is an impressive cool air mass for late July standards… and more indicative of late September or mid-May.
FutureTrak 13 shows the building cloud deck during Sunday afternoon. While likely overdoing late afternoon precipitation…don't be surprised to see isolated "instability" showers especially north of I-70. This is due to a rather large temperature difference between the surface and much colder air aloft that creates robust lapse rates in the atmosphere.
The air mass remains unseasonably cool into Monday, before modifying by mid-week. Rain and storm chances also return with the warm up.
Thanks for reading the blog and I hope you enjoy the rest of the weekend – Sean Ash

'What's Fair?' Lecture Series Addressing Social, Political DvideLectures Scheduled for Oct. 4, 25 and Nov. 30 in Honors College Commons
Americans share many values but often disagree on what is fair in the world. Ongoing national debates focus on social justice, economic reform, education, politics and numerous other topics. Such complex discussions usually pose the often-unanswerable question, "What is fair?"
Fairness surrounds many issues shaping American discourse, and now, a University of Houston lecture series will focus on this very topic. "What's Fair? A Lecture Series on Justice and Desert in America" offers insight from three thought leaders and academic experts.
Sponsored by the Honors College's Phronesis Politics and Ethics program and the Hobby Center for Public Policy, "What's Fair?" lectures will be conducted in the Honors College Commons (second floor of UH's M.D. Anderson Library). These events are free. For additional details or to RSVP, visit the "What's Fair?" website.
"In America today, there is an intense debate about fairness, from economic issues to education to civil rights. This lecture series seeks to bring a variety of perspectives to the debate," said Susan Collins, Phronesis director and associate professor of political science.
A schedule of speakers and lectures is as follows:
- 5 p.m., Oct, 4: Paul Woodruff – "The Ajax Dilemma: Justice, Fairness and Rewards"
Woodruff, Darrell K. Royal Professor of Ethics and American Society, will discuss how to distribute rewards and public recognition without damaging the social fabric.
- 4 p.m., Oct. 25: Tom Hurka – "Two Levels of Desert"
Hurka, Chancellor Henry N.R. Jackman Distinguished Professor of Philosophical Studies at the University of Toronto, will focus on who deserves what – both on an individual and societal level.
- 4 p.m., Nov. 30: Ruth Grant – "Strings Attached: Untangling the Ethics of Incentives"
Grant, professor of political science and senior fellow in the Kenan Institute for Ethics at Duke University, will explore whether incentives are manipulative or exploitative even if people are free to refuse them.

Haylee Skukan wasn't the primary placekicker for the St. Clairsville football team during last season's march to the Division IV state championship game.
Heck, she would only get the chance to tee it up when the Red Devils were comfortably ahead.
But, according to head coach Brett McLean, she worked as hard as anyone on the team.
As a result, Skukan is a walk-on candidate for the Capital University, located in the Columbus suburb of Bexley, team this fall. The Crusaders compete in NCAA Division III and are members of the Ohio Athletic Conference.
"Honestly, we (the coaching staff) all had reservations when Haylee approached us about joining the team. Today, I can say I wouldn't change the experience for anything," McLean said. "She was a team player and worked hard at honing her kicking skills and competed for playing time.
"Other than dressing before and after games, we made no special arrangements for Haylee, nor did she ever expect any," McLean continued. "She had the same commitment expectations as any other player in our program and she always was accountable and responsible to those expectations."
Skukan, who also played on the girls' soccer team, is excited about the opportunity.
"I really enjoyed my experience with football in high school," she revealed. "I wanted to continue my career in college.
"My coaches at St. Clairsville are wonderful people," Skukan continued. "Coach (Mike) Chops (Jacob) worked with me the most and he is such an inspirational person, but all of the coaches have been supportive of me throughout my career.
"I'm just blessed to have been surrounded by them all."
One thing she does know is she'll have to get her leg stronger.
"I have been working really hard and training to do the best I'm capable of," she added. "I'm really eager to see how it all pays off.
"Right now, I'm hitting the weights to get stronger and, of course, I'm kicking a lot."
So, what was it like to be the only female on the football team?
"It's different," she allowed. "For me as a female, I sometimes had to work twice as hard as the guys to keep up. Anything you work hard for is by no means easy if it's important to you.
"At first my teammates were leery that I wanted to be a part of the team. After they saw I could do what they could do, outlooks changed. It was like I was their sister and over the past three years, they've looked out for me.
"I didn't get treated any differently because of my gender," she stressed. "I've made so many long lasting relationships with my teammates. Even though I'm a girl, it's just become somewhat automatic and familiar for me to be on the football team, and I think the team felt that way, too."
Skukan will remember homecoming this past season for the rest of her life.
No, she didn't kick a game-winning field goal, but she did become one of a handful of female kickers across the nation who were also selected as their school's homecoming queen.
"After I was crowned queen I went into the fieldhouse to share the news with everyone, but the true celebration didn't start until after the game," she admitted. "I knew I was going to get to kick in the second half, so I had to focus and get back into game mode.
"Everything happened so fast that night, but it was so special."
Does this mean she's giving up soccer?
"I had a lot of emails from college coaches for soccer, but I'm just pursuing what is best for me right now," she said.
McLean likes her chances of making the team.
"I feel she has a great chance. She is as determined an individual as I have ever met," he said. "Her ability as a kicker is far better than most outside our coaching staff and team even realize.
"She was a team member who practiced hard every day and we honored that by giving her opportunities to kick whenever possible.
Skukan plans on majoring in pre-med chemistry and becoming a physician's assistant.

Gilda Garretón, a Java Developer and Parallelism Computing Researcher
By Yolande Poirier-Oracle on Jun 20, 2011
In a new interview titled "Gilda Garretón, a Java Developer and Parallelism Computing Research," Garretón shares her first-hand experience developing with Java and Java 7 for very large-scale integration (VLSI) of computer-aided design (CAD).
Garretón gives an insightful overview of how Java is contributing to the parallelism development and to the Electric VLSI Design Systems, an open source VLSI CAD application used as a research platform for new CAD algorithms as well as the research flow for hardware test chips.
Garretón considers that parallelism programming is hard and complex, yet important developments are taking place. "With the addition of the concurrent package in Java SE 6 and the Fork/Join feature in Java SE 7, developers have a chance to rely more on existing frameworks and dedicate more time to the essence of their parallel algorithms."

No. 14 Kansas State Holds on for 3-2 Victory Over Texas Tech
Meghan Stacy connected on a team-high 19 kills in a 3-2 loss Saturday at No. 14 Kansas State.
Oct. 20, 2012
MANHATTAN, Kan. - Texas Tech rallied from two sets down but was unable to deliver its first win over a ranked opponent since 2004 Saturday as No. 14 Kansas State held on for a 3-2 (25-13, 25-14, 20-25, 23-25, 15-9) victory at Ahearn Field House.
The Red Raiders were looking for their first win over a top-25 team since Nov. 20, 2004, when Tech topped K-State, 3-2, in Manhattan. The match was also the last time Tech defeated K-State as the Wildcats had won 14-straight in the series.
After overcoming an early two-set deficit, Tech came close to ending both streaks until the Wildcats broke open a 9-9 tie in the fifth with a 6-0 rally to close the match. Tech had previously rallied from 3-0 and 7-4 deficits earlier in the frame.
"This was a competitive, quality performance out of our team," Tech head coach Don Flora said. "We got down early, but I was proud to see how we stepped up and forced a fifth set. Kansas State is obviously one of the top teams in the country, so the way we came back and nearly won really says a lot about this young team."
Already facing an early deficit, Flora turned to his bench and found a combination that began to click as Meghan Stacy, Brianna Grant and Whitney Ford all entered on the front line. The trio accounted for 27 kills combined along with nine blocks.
Stacy finished with a career-high 19 kills, including 12 during the fourth set alone, to lead the Red Raiders. She was joined in double digits by Breeann David, who connected on 12 kills of her own.
Attacking errors plagued the Red Raiders early and then also in the fifth set as Tech finished with 30 in the match en route to a .147 hitting percentage. Tech totaled only four kills to go along with four errors in the pivotal fifth set after totaling a .368 average in the fourth.
K-State, meanwhile, hit .318 as a team with only 18 errors, marking the third-highest average for a Tech opponent this season.
Kaitlynn Pelger and Alex Muff led the Wildcats with 18 and 17 kills each while Lilla Porubek added 11 as well. All three players hit over .300 individually with Muff leading the way with a .593 average.
Rachel Brummitt anchored the Tech back row with 21 digs while Tory Vaughan and Ellen Sorrells added 10 each as well. K-State led Tech, 61-57, in the category thanks in part to a team-high 18 digs from Pelger.
The loss dropped the Red Raiders to .500 for the first time this season as Tech fell to 12-12 on the year and 1-7 in Big 12 play. K-State improved to 18-3 overall and 5-3 in league action.
The Red Raiders will take a week off before West Virginia makes its first visit to Lubbock next Saturday for a 6 p.m. first serve at the United Spirit Arena.

Born this way
When you take everything into consideration, allowing, Lady Gaga to excuse her oddities by claiming she was "Born This Way" is, I suppose, perfectly acceptable.
But attempting to alleviate psychopaths of all responsibility because they are, quite simply, 'born bad, which is what one study has claimed this week, is not only completely gaga, but also very worrying.
Apparently, psychopaths have physically different brains from 'normal' people, and are 'born to kill'.
The study raises the prospect of arguing a defence of insanity, which interestingly, is written as an afterthought, but in all honesty, is the only element of the findings which is not completely absurd. Insanity
a psychological illness, and if one is deemed as such at the time of committing a crime, for right or for wrong, that is between the defendant, the victim and the court. But to almost extrapolate from this so as to insinuate that all psychopaths are born insane, and thus by extension that all psychopathically-induced crime is fate, is just, well, insane.
According to the study, the scans showed that psychopaths have less grey matter in the areas of the brain important for understanding other people's emotions. That's as may be, but does that mean they have to act on it? I know people who aren't great at understanding other people's emotions, but I'd be hard-pressed to believe they had the ability to kill. After all, one may have a thing for blood, but there's nothing stopping them from becoming a butcher.
You think that's bad? That's nothing compared to what the study then goes on to claim.
Because as a result of psychopaths being 'born bad', it must mean that there is, supposedly, 'simply no point in treating them'. So not only are psychopaths excused from their actions, but there's also nothing that can be done so as to prevent any further criminal activity in the future.
And it would seem that we haven't learnt from past mistakes, either, or attempted to treat this reality, as 'passing the buck' of responsibility still seems to be the cornerstone of all crime. A murderer blaming his victim because, after all, he did sleep with his wife; a thief stealing from a rich old lady because she failed to implement the correct security measures. Adolf Hitler killing six million Jews because
of course
Germany's downfall was their fault. And now, with a Neo Nazi party on the rise in Greece, things are just the same as they always have been.
"Those who have betrayed the homeland must now be afraid", roared the leader of the Golden Dawn party this week, with the principal aim of ridding Greece of all illegal immigrants. "Greece is only the beginning … you know exactly what I mean."
As always, responsibility is placed on innocent victims as the real psychopaths get away with murder
It seems the only brain matter missing is in us for allowing this culture to exist.
But then, it's not

Lebanon's Consumer Confidence Index drops in May, June
Byblos Bank/AUB Consumer Confidence Index improved marginally in January and February, picked up pace in March and April, and regressed in May and June 2014.
The Index reached 37.3 points in April 2014, its highest score since September 2012. The Index grew by 10 percent in the first quarter to an average of 31, and rose by another 15 percent to an average of 35.7 in the second quarter of the year.
"The results reflect the Index's first consecutive quarterly increases since the first and second quarters of 2011. Further, the Index posted a monthly average of 33.4 in the first half of 2014, increasing by 16.5 percent from the second half of 2013," the report said.
Nassib Ghobril, chief economist and head of the Economic Research & Analysis Department at the Byblos Bank Group, said, "The formation of a new Cabinet in mid-February after more than 10 months of political deadlock and the confidence vote it received in Parliament in March, along with the concrete results of a 'security plan' launched across the country in April, were the main factors that affected positively the confidence of Lebanese households during the first half of 2014."
Ghobril also noted that "the repeated failure of the Lebanese Parliament to elect a president by the May 25 constitutional deadline and the ensuing presidential vacuum, along with security breaches in the Bekaa [Valley] and, particularly, in Beirut in June, reversed the timid improvement in sentiment."

Insomniac Games launched a delightfully wacky viral website on Monday for an energy drink in its upcoming Xbox One exclusive shooter, "Sunset Overdrive". The drink's mascot, Fizzie, was even its own Twitter account where he decided to troll Xbox figures, the console itself and even Coca-Cola.
The "Sunset Overdrive" viral website is a product page for the energy drink Over Charge Delirium XT. The can's description says that it utilizes "the power of xtremophiles… to unlock your wasted potential. So get up, down an OverCharge, and become a better you!"
In "Sunset Overdrive", a catastrophe in the near future has killed or turned most of the city's population into mutants. It's believed that Over Charge Delirium XT is the cause of this catastrophe. The combination of 200mg of Sodium, 800mg of caffeine, 87g of sugar and the mystery Xtremophile ingredient probably would have some sort of serious side effect.
The website also promotes some important dates for the game's energy drink starting with June 9, the date of the E3 convention in Los Angeles. This is followed by July 24 in San Diego, a day before Comic-Con in that city, and then Cologne, Germany on Aug. 13 for Gamescom. The tour dates wrap up in Seattle on Aug. 30, which just so happens to be the start date of PAX Prime.
Some of the characters from "Sunset Overdrive" are also introduced including Fizzco Executive Chet Fisher and Red Caboose Reggie, who is described as "Sunset City's favorite hobo to ignore." Locations are revealed too including fast food joint Sex Burger, Agua Mofeta Brewery, Sasquate 'N Friends Family Fun Center and Café Fizzco.
Finally, Fizzie took Twitter by storm with some decidedly pointed Tweets. Some of these were directed at the likes of Larry "Major Nelson" Hyrb with, "Hey, @majornelson! You'd be a Lieutenant Colonel by now if you drank more OverCharge! #ShouldaDrankOverCharge." There was even a shot at the Xbox One itself – "@Xbox Look! We made the Xbox One even better! You're welcome."
Microsoft personalities and products weren't the only ones to suffer from Fizzie's wrath though. Mega-gaming forum, NeoGAF, was also targeted as well as Coca-Cola.
"Sunset Overdrive" does not yet have a release date for the Xbox One yet. However, it is expected to be released this year.

Is there hope for friend with breast cancer?May 7th, 2011 . by admin
My best friend has breast cancer. Doctors recently told her that it has created lesions in her bones throughout her body. I've heard that when this happens, it's pretty much a death sentence. Is this true?
The sort of a cancer you're describing is known as Stage IV breast cancer and there is no known cure for this. However, in some cases it can be controlled for months or even years through hormonal therapy, chemotherapy, and palliative radiation.
Like any disease without a cure, some cancers can be controlled through various medical treatments. Certainly, there's no reason to give your friend a "death sentence" over this. It is not our lot in life, nor her doctors', to say when your friend will die. The best we can do is to examine the statistics and provide the more likely treatment options.
Meanwhile, like all of us, your friend should continue living her life to the fullest and making the most of each day.

Only a couple of suggestions. Windshields are much flatter than that seen from the side so a narrow triangle, tallest part on top would look better. Also, the wheels should be smaller than that.

On March 14, singer-songwriter and Atlantic Records artist Vance Joy chatted via telephone with Examiner about his newest EP "God Loves You When You're Dancing."
Regarding the song selection process for his new EP, he stated, "It was easy. They were the best 5 songs I had."
He selected "Emmylou," as well as the closing track "From Afar" and "Riptide" as his favorite recordings from his latest EP.
Joy described "Riptide" as a "colorful" song. "I wrote the first two lines of in 2008 and then returned to in 2012," he said. "I think it surfaced when it wanted to be written and made complete. It was like a jigsaw puzzle. I felt good about it when it came together. The melody was one that made it easy for me to put words over. It was like an artifact that I dug out of the ground. It was just waiting to be unsurfaced."
He shared that his music is folk with elements of pop. "I'm a folk singer-songwriter. I am pretty poppy though," he admitted.
On his plans for the future, he revealed, "I want to get through this year of touring and read books and buy little keepsakes from nice places along the way. To keep chipping away. I want to see the new Wes Anderson film. It looks bloody good. Ralph Fiennes and Edward Norton are among my favorite actors."
