BCRW 40th Anniversary Activism & the Academy
Forty years ago, the Barnard Center for Research on Women began its mission of using research and knowledge to advance feminist scholarship and long-term partnerships with activist groups. Inspired by the new women's movement, BCRW became part of an historic moment that witnessed the proliferation of feminist activism, the establishment of women's studies programs and women's centers, and the founding of women's bookstores and other cultural projects. This fall, we bring together our past, present and future collaborators as well as kindred institutions, scholars and activists engaged in social justice feminism to consider what kinds of collaborative projects are possible when scholarship and activism are joined.

Barnard College Greek Games 2011

In April 2011, Barnard College students revived the Greek Games, an historic campus tradition. First held in 1903 and continuing through 1969, the Greek Games were started as an attempt to accurately recreate the athletic competitions of heroic Greece. The freshman and sophomore classes competed against each other in categories of dance, original poetry and song composition, discus throwing, hurdling, hoop rolling, torch races, and chariot races. Barnard's involvement in the Greek Games signals a dedication to the paradigms of neoclassical, liberal scholarship on which Barnard College and Columbia University were founded.

Give and Go Green 2010
Give and Go Green (G&GG) is an initiative organized by the Barnard EcoReps annually, which seeks to reduce the amount of waste thrown away by students at the end of the school year. Every year, we throw out perfectly useful clothes, appliances, books, toiletries, and more because we simply can't keep them over the summer. Instead of giving all of that to the landfill, give it to someone in need! Barnard partners with Salvation Army, Goodwill, Rock and Wrap it Up, the 114th Broadway/ Presbyterian church, and other organizations who help us to distribute this STUFF to people that can use it.

Diana, The Art of Spring
The leafy campus of Barnard College was alive with the sound of music, theatre, and dance during "Diana: The Art of Spring," a festival celebrating student performers and the school's new Weiss/Manfredi -designed building The Diana Center. Festivities took place the afternoon of May 4.
Students, alumnae, and friends of the College enjoyed outdoor drumming and dancing performances on beautiful Lehman Lawn, in addition to musical and theatrical productions in The Diana Center.
"Spring is here and we want to celebrate the season, our blooming campus, our state-of-the-art new building, and most significantly, our students who bring The Diana Center and this campus to life," said Barnard's Chief of Staff and Vice President for Community Development Vivian Taylor, who along with Barnard's Music Director Gail Archer, coordinated the daylong festival.

"Moving Toward Utopia" What Kind of City Lies Ahead?
A new concept of the city has emerged among contemporary urbanists. Architects and planners now frame the city not as a set of independently regulated functions but as a mesh of landscapes, spaces, and policies. Streets, paths, parks, and infrastructure are elements of a constantly shifting system that joins the particularities of place and overarching social goals. Building on the Fall 2009 "Rights of Way" symposium, "Moving Toward Utopia" addresses questions of power, health, equity, and ecology that confront and are fueled by new design strategies.

Kids Go Green!
More than 100 junior-high students from Morningside Heights and Harlem gained a new perspective of their community: On Wednesday, April 14, the young people perched on The Green Roof atop Barnard College's new award-winning building, The Diana Center, as part of an event titled "Kids Go Green."
Students from Frederick Douglass Academy II, Corpus Christi School, Booker T. Washington, KIPP STAR College Preparatory, Columbia Secondary School, and Mott Hall II, toured The Green Roof as well as Barnard's other green spaces, including The Arthur Ross Greenhouse on Milbank Hall. At each stop, students learned about sustainability and urban spaces, and participated in educational games to start them thinking about their own "green" choices.

Feminism and Climate Change
Already among the most vulnerable populations worldwide, women and other marginalized groups have been the most acutely affected by the instabilities propagated by climate change. Issues such as water scarcity, drought, and other environmental problems threaten the world's food supply, making it more difficult for disadvantaged groups to obtain the basic necessities of life. Increased temperatures and more intense weather patterns raise the likelihood of illness and disease, especially among the poor. Diminishing resources, known to increase conflict and war, are leading to greater numbers of "climate refugees" and displaced people. Looking at these issues in a wide variety of contexts, our speakers share the challenges and complexities of working within multiple justice movements, including movements for environmental, racial and gender justice.
Keynote speakers were Majora Carter and Joni Seager.

On Dance: Merce Cunningham and His Legacy as a Teacher
A panel discussion with Mary Lisa Burns, Nancy Dalva, Carol Teitelbaum and Timothy Emmett Lee Ward
"When giving my exercises," said Merce Cunningham, "I take care not to impose a style of any kind. I just hope it appears as natural as possible . . . . It's very important that every day the student has . . . touch[ed] the utmost limits." This panel discussion includes Mary Lisa Burns '77, director of education for the Cunningham Dance Foundation; Carol Teitelbaum, Faculty Chair of the Merce Cunningham Dance Company, and Timothy Emmett Lee Ward, a dancer in the Merce Cunningham Dance Company. Moderated by Nancy Dalva, producer/writer for the foundation's web series "Mondays with Merce," the discussion will focus on the world-renowned choreographer's lifelong work as a teacher who both created a technique of modern dance and trained generations of dancers and dance teachers.

How Remarkable Women Lead - with Joanna Barsh
Now a senior partner, Joanna Barsh joined McKinsey & Company in 1981. Along with her consulting work, she leads the McKinsey Centered Leadership Project, whose goal is to help develop women leaders. How Remarkable Women Lead presents unique ideas about successful leadership. Based on 5 years of proprietary research, this book raises provocative issues such as whether feminine leadership traits (for women and men) are better suited for our fast-changing, hyper-competitive and increasingly complex world.
Ms. Barsh, who serves on the New York City Commission on Women's Issues, received the Girl Scouts Council Woman of Distinction Award and the National Council for Research on Women Award. Ms. Barsh is also a trustee of Sesame Workshop. She was a Baker Scholar at Harvard Business School.

Rights of Way
With the recent turn to pedestrian zones, bike lanes and greenways in New York and in many cities around the world, there is a growing sense that a new kind of urbanism is possible, one no longer dominated by the culture and politics of the automobile. "Rights of Way" will examine the issues surrounding bikes and pedestrianization, and will explore sustainability, finance, public health, and the ways in which the street can serve as a fulcrum in debates about public space and urban life.

Dr. Leonardo Seeber of the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory will provide the keynote address, reflecting on his career of socially engaged seismological field research across three continents and vastly different cultures. Andrew Revkin, The New York Times science journalist and author of the Dot-Earth blog, leads a question-and-answer session with Dr. Seeber.

Just Hair
Long, short, sleek, bold, kinky, natural, covered or shaved—no matter how you cut it, women's hair is a frequent topic of conversation. But why all the fuss? How far-reaching are the supposedly simple decisions women make about style, dye, and hair products? And what do our preferences reveal about our deepest desires and fears? Janet Jakobsen, director of the Barnard Center for Research on Women, will guide us as we untangle the meanings of hair and beauty. Panelists include Ayana Byrd '95, articles editor at Glamour and author of Hair Story: Untangling the Roots of Black Hair in America; Anne Kreamer, author of Going Gray: How to Embrace Your Authentic Self with Grace and Style; and Atoosa Rubenstein '93, former editor-in-chief of Seventeen magazine, and founding editor of CosmoGIRL!

By juxtaposing contrasting versions of the historical events that we take for granted, Lindaman offers nothing less than a map of emotional responses to American political power.

New Feminist Activism
Feminism today is all about intersections. Where, for example, do reproductive issues meet with workplace rights? What are the links between sexual and economic justice? Join progressive activist organizers as they explore how young feminists are fighting the good fight for educational reform, the environment, and racial and class equality. By taking advantage of the newest forms of media, through social networking and building bold, even unexpected, alliances, these activists are creating a brand of activism that looks markedly different from the feminism of yesterday but remains vitally, fundamentally concerned with social justice and social change. Mia Herndon is Executive Director of the Third Wave Foundation; Debra Cole is a member of Domestic Workers United; and Rinku Sen is President and Executive Director of the Applied Research Center.

With construction nearly completed, the wall surrounding construction has rescinded, and a walkway joining Lehman Walk and the Milkbank courtyard has emerged. Under the safety of scaffolding, the Barnard community rejoices in the recovered freedom of easy movement.

This is messed up. This YouTube vid was stolen from the man who originally posted it, and then an ad was attached...that's against YouTube's TOS. They very clearly knew that too, because this account looks as if it was created just to do this. I reported it.

An Editor's Note And Some Recommended Reading
I'm going on vacation tomorrow, but blogging will continue semi-apace in my absence, because I've been working like a madwoman to get things up in advance. I'll be back on Monday with Breaking Bad thoughts and plenty of other goodies.
But before I leave, I really wanted to encourage you all to read my favorite thing on the internet this week, Emily Yoshida's look back at Myst on the occasion of its twentieth anniversary. It's fascinating to hear from the game's creators, and to consider why Myst didn't open up a new frontier in gaming, even given its mass appeal. But I'm almost more interested in the idea that Myst was what got us used to and excited about the internet. As Emily writes:
In Myst, the technomagicology that allows the characters to bounce from world to world is something called the Art, a technique used to write "linking books" that allow people to travel to the worlds, or ages, that they describe. Atrus, the protagonist of the Myst series, is one such practitioner of this art; he learned it from his father, Gehn, and passed it on to his two sons. Not just anyone can learn the Art; it takes a certain kind of talent, and like any great power, it inevitably comes with great responsibilities. Faulty writing will result in an unstable age; one can also just be a bad steward of an age by stripping its resources or forcing its inhabitants to worship you as a god.
It's an alluring idea — the ability to write words with such power and focus that they could physically transport someone to a place of the author's choosing — not to mention a tempting metaphor for the Millers' love of world-building. We want to ascribe such mystical, lightning-in-a-bottle powers to the creator of any work that has an impact on us — including that small band of programmers and 3-D modelers toiling away in glasses and flannels for two years to create what was essentially an extremely immersive HyperCard stack. But there's a sneaky philosophical catch embedded in Myst's mythology that the casual player could easily miss: The Art doesn't allow the writer to actually create a world — only to create a link to it. The world being linked to — its terrain, its people, its architecture, its biosphere — all existed before that first link was created; the writer is merely presenting opportunities to see these worlds.
I tend to get impatient with puzzle games, but I do go back to Myst every couple of years. Anyway, go read the whole thing.

As others have said, I'm sure people are sick of this topic. I'm starting a new one because the most recent I've seen has solved the database connection, but is now on another issue.
I'm trying to set up a local copy of WordPress on Ubuntu 8.04.
I downloaded WordPress and set up the files per instructions. I have the wordpress directory in /var/www/worpress, with the ownership as www-data:www-data. Permissions look OK too.
I set up the MySQL database per instructions, with database called wordpress-private and user wordpress.
When I try to access the install.php file (either from the Ubuntu machine or across the LAN), I see the 'Error establishing a database connection page'.
I'm using phpMyAdmin to administer, and some results look odd to me.
I can access as root, with the password I set up.
The wordpress user can log on to phpMyAdmin, but only if I don't enter a password. If I enter the password I get an error. (I tried commenting out the DB_PASSWORD line in wp-config.php, but it doesn't make a difference.)
So it looks like something with the user/password/privileges. The user has default global privileges - which are USAGE - and all access rights to the wordpress database.
I just tried changing the username/password in wp-config.php to root. This worked. I guess I can limp along for now, but that doesn't seem right.

Charlie Browns timeless appeal: The secret behind the Peanuts franchise
"At some point," he said, "the question occurred to me, 'We see Charlie Brown's team lose all the time; how many games did they really lose? How many home runs did Chuck actually give up?' I chalked these up to 'questions that could never be answered' but then I realized that, with the 'Complete Peanuts' books being published, it wasn't too hard to just read through the strips and catalog them. So that's what I did."
While reviewing the 655 baseball-themed Peanuts strips published between 1951-70, Granillo deduced wins and losses whenever possible. Last year he blogged the documentable results for that 20-year stretch of Charlie Brown's pitching career: 9 wins, 85 losses and 22 times knocked to the ground by a line drive.
As thorough as Granillo's knowledge of the Peanuts comic strips may, it still probably can't hold a candle to the institutional knowledge of Lucy Shelton Caswell. Before retiring on Jan. 1, Caswell was curator of Ohio State University's Billy Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum — the world's largest academic research facility for comic strips and cartoon art. She is also on the Board of Directors of the Charles M. Schulz Museum in Santa Rosa, Calif.
"Schulz came along at a watershed in the history of the American comic strip," Caswell said. "World War II was over; television was coming along. He understood that he could communicate complicated ideas to grown-ups, to people of all ages, with sort of a minimalist artistic approach … and then had a style and an ability to write in a concise way that really popped for the time."
Caswell openly concedes her familiarity with Schulz's comic strips runs much deeper than her knowledge of the Peanuts televised specials. Still, she knows enough about Peanuts as a whole to pinpoint a very specific reason why the franchise has remained intact and viable for so long — even after a 77-year-old Schulz died in 2000 from complications related to colon cancer.
"He kept a very close reign on his properties," Caswell said. "I think that's one reason that the licensing has been so successful — he understood and demanded and was given the right to monitor the products in a way that some other cartoonists weren't. … Schulz was able to protect his property, and therefore the animated specials were done with his blessing and guidance."
Peanuts facts
$90: Schulz's October 1950 income for his first month of Peanuts syndication.
18,000: Approximate number of Peanuts comic strips Schulz drew over 49 years.
10: percent of Peanuts strips that feature baseball in some way.
2,600: number of newspapers that carried Peanuts at its subscription peak, in 1999.
2000: year in which Schulz died due to complications from colon cancer. He was 77 years old.

The names of the Hebrew months that we use now were not known until after the Babylonian exile. The Torah refers to months by their number and place in the order of the year. Pesach, we are told, takes place in the first month (Nisan) while Yom Kippur and Succot are in the seventh (Tishri).
Simchat Torah is the only time of the year when children are called up to the Torah, for the Kol Hane'arim ("All the Youth") aliyah.
As the girls and boys stand around the Torah with a tallit spread above their heads, the congregation sings Jacob's blessing to his grandsons, "The Angel who has redeemed me from all harm bless the lads" (Genesis 48:16).
Is the job of the chazan to pray with the community or for them? This is an argument in the final mishnah of tractate Rosh Hashanah. The rabbis say the chazan does not discharge the obligation to pray for a person who knows how to read.
Nusach means "version" and refers to the wording and style of prayer. Sephardi and Ashkenazi nusachim subdivide into groups such as Iraqi, Syrian, Italian, and even English.
Rabbi Isaac Luria (the 16th-century kabbalist) taught that the nusachim reflected different ways of reaching God and were all needed.
The Talmud teaches: "Whoever designates a permanent place [makom kavua] for his prayer, the God of Abraham assists him."
The Shulchan Aruch (Code of Jewish law) recommends having a regular synagogue and a makom kavua there.
Abraham is the model for someone who prayed repeatedly in the same place.
In Ethics of the Fathers, Rabbi Meir declares, "Whoever occupies himself with Torah for its own sake (lishmah) merits many things" (Pirkei Avot 6:1). Lishmah means for "her (or its) name or purpose".
We read in the Shema, "you shall write them on the doorposts of your house" (Deuteronomy 6:9). This refers to a mezuzah, the rolled-up scroll of parchment on which are written the first two paragraphs of the Shema.
The Torah prohibits the "destruction" of one's beard (Leviticus 19:27). The Rambam explains this prohibition as shunning the ways of idolatry. Indeed, the Yiddish word for priest, goloch, derives from the Hebrew for shaven. The Christian priests' smooth face was their distinguishing trait.
Criticising others is easy and, for many enjoyable. So it may be a pleasant surprise to learn that there is a mitzvah to rebuke wrongdoers (Leviticus 19:17).
When the Torah describes the mitzvah of establishing a court system in the Land of Israel and appointing judges, it adds, "You shall not fear any person". Judges must decide on the basis of the facts and evidence and not to succumb to fears and threats of intimidation from the accused.

In a single year, the Amarillo Dillas' Shawn Hughes and Jarred McAlvain have made the journey from part-time starter to all-star.
Hughes and McAlvain will join teammates Al Kermode, Matt Dettman and Lonnie Maclin when the Texas-Louisiana League All-Stars play the host Ozark Mountain Ducks today in PriceCutter Park. First pitch is scheduled for 7:05 p.m.
Former Amarillo second baseman Mike Hardge was also voted to the team by media members and field managers. However, the New York Yankees organization purchased his contract last week and assigned him to their Double-A team in Norwich, Conn.
Amarillo's Daren Brown will manage the All-Stars, while Ozark manager Barry Jones will guide his Mountain Ducks.
Last season, McAlvain platooned at first base for the Dillas, and Hughes platooned at catcher.
"It feels good," McAlvain said. "I'm really excited to be going to Ozark. I'm 0-for-23 there. Maybe I can break the string."
Hughes is third in the T-L League in hitting with a .364 average. He has six home runs and a league-leading 53 RBIs.
McAlvain made the elite squad as a designated hitter with a .348 average (fifth in the league), seven home runs and 43 RBIs.
"I've been in this league at least five years, and this is the first time I've been involved in an all-star game," Hughes said. "I'm glad we got voted in."
The everyday play has agreed with McAlvain and Hughes as both seized their starting jobs by the ears and have not turned loose.
"Over the last two years, splitting time with Pat Koerner, there's no way I could've put up the numbers I have," McAlvain said. "You have to be in there every day. You can't play every two days and expect to do the same thing."
As a rookie, Dettman will makes his all-star debut. Dettman is tied with fellow all-star Guy Giuffre from San Angelo for the T-L lead in home runs with 12. Dettman is also batting .283 with 50 RBIs. Dettman will team with McAlvain as the All-Stars' designated hitters.
Maclin, who has been subbing for Hardge in the leadoff slot, is batting .332 with 42 RBIs, but has yet to hit a home run. Maclin will start in the outfield for the All-Stars.
Kermode has a 9-3 record with a 3.41 earned-run average to go with 65 strikeouts and 11 walks. Kermode leads the league in wins (9), complete games (5) and shutouts (2).
The league-leading and defending champion Dillas led the league in all-star selections with six, including the now-departed Hardge. The Alexandria Aces will send five players, and three from Ozark were chosen. Lafayette, San Angelo, Greenville, Jackson and Rio Grande Valley each sent two players to the all-star game.
The Dillas will return to action Friday when they travel to Alexandria.

i am working on a scenerio where i need to load 3 csv files into my table. For this purpose am using 3 flat file connection managers.
Now instead of using 3 flat file connection managers i need to use only one connection Manager for all the 3 files.
I came to know we can use Multi File Connection Manger for this purpose, but this works only when the files have same columns.
1. My first csv has id, Rate, Amount,Total_Amt columns
2. Second Csv File has id, Rate, Amount, Total_Amt, Date, Debt columns
3. Third CSV File has id, Rate, Amount, Total_Amt, loss, Gain columns
how can i use multi file connection manager for this approach.

A downgrade to Market Perform from FBR is pressuring Atmel (ATML -2.3%) shares. The firm is worried about valuation and soft PC touchscreen controller sales - sales of touch-enabled Windows 8 hardware have underwhelmed thus far, but Microsoft, Intel, and OEMs are committed to growing penetration rates. Rival Cypress (CY +2.4%), which just announced its controllers are used in the 2013 Toyota Avalon, is heading in the opposite direction. Update: FBR is also worried about a transition to cheaper, single-chip, PC touch controller solutions, and Atmel's lack of an in-cell controller.

I have a machine running Windows Server 2003.
While reconfiguring the IP configuration, it froze and now I am unable to remote access it because I don't know what IP address it has and it is not getting an IP from DHCP.
So far my options are:
- Reset the system - don't want to do this, I will lose some important stuff
- Mount the drive on another computer under linux and try to recover data and/or repair the ip configuration
- Blind login and set the machine to use dhcp
I was wondering if anyone could give me any advice on options 2 and 3
On option 2, where is the ip address information stored under windows, and could I just simply change it?
Option 3, anyone have any advice for this, or know if a usb to vga adapter will work without installing any drivers so I don't have to do it blind?
Thanks in advance

COOKEVILLE, Tenn. (March 20, 2014) Courtney Cash, the great-niece of the late singer Johnny Cash, has been found stabbed to death and stuffed into a box in a house,
Putnam County, Tenn., Sheriff David Andrews said.
Cash's body was found Wednesday morning inside of a large chest, he said.
A man identified as William Austin Johnson, Cash's boyfriend, was being treated for stab wounds at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville.
Andrews said the pair went out with a friend before an altercation took place in the house where Johnson and Cash lived with their young child.
The friend, identified as Wayne Gary Masciarella, has been charged with first-degree murder.
Andrews said Johnson escaped the attack and took the child with him before driving to the hospital.

Giants Relishing Underdog Role in Patriots' Rematch, Tisch Says
The New York Giants are Super Bowl underdogs against the New England Patriots again and loving it, according to team co-owner Steve Tisch.
The Giants have extra motivation as long-shots, reminiscent of a similar National Football League run four years ago that ended in an upset against the same opponent for the championship, Tisch, 62, said today in a radio interview on "Bloomberg Surveillance" with Ken Prewitt and Tom Keene.
New York is a 2 1/2-point underdog heading into the Feb. 5 game in Indianapolis against two-time Most Valuable Player Tom Brady and the Patriots, after defying the sports books' odds in road victories against the National Football Conference's top two teams, the Green Bay Packers and San Francisco 49ers.
"It unites the players much more in the locker room and when they're on the field," Tisch said. "It gives them just a little extra push to play for each other, to play for the fans."
The last time these two teams met in a Super Bowl, following the 2007 season, the Giants stunned the undefeated Patriots 17-14 on an Eli Manning touchdown pass to Plaxico Burress with 35 seconds remaining. During those playoffs, New York won three road games and entered the Super Bowl as a 12-point underdog.
Tisch, the team's chairman since 2005, is the only person to win a Super Bowl ring and an Academy Award, which he received in 1995 as producer of the film "Forrest Gump." He said if he could keep one, it would be the Super Bowl title, because New York's upset over the Patriots in February 2008 had all the qualities of a great movie -- drama, heroes, underdogs, suspense and an unpredictable ending.
"It's everything a great movie is, but it was unscripted, unrehearsed," he said. "Nobody knew how it was going to end."
This year's game, a showdown between coaches and quarterbacks that have won previous Super Bowl titles, may be just as exciting, he said.
"It could be another really classic, great Giants-Patriots Super Bowl," Tisch said. "What could be better for the fans of NFL football and Giants fans?"

The 27-year-old aggravated a shoulder problem playing for the Blues against Edinburgh earlier this month, and will be out until May.
In a statement, the Blues said: "Following consultation with the medical team, Pretorius underwent shoulder reconstruction surgery on Friday, which went well, and the Blues number eight is due to return to full training in May."

The Hub: Resources for a Clean-Energy Economy
The clean-energy economy holds the promise to combat global warming, reduce our dependence on volatile and expensive fossil fuels, and create millions of new high-quality jobs for Americans. But the fight to transition to this new economy will be a tough one. Some special interests are currently spending millions of dollars a day lobbying legislators in Washington to support the status quo.
To ensure we usher in a clean-energy future, the Center for American Progress has partnered with allies to compile the arguments, stories, and state-by-state data needed to show that the clean-energy economy will create good jobs, lower consumer costs, spur innovation and entrepreneurship, and position America as a global leader in the new low-carbon energy era.

Nice to get some good news in with all the gloom…
No knowledgeable person is advocating inaction. It is quite clear that we have serious energy and environmental issues.
But let's not confuse activity with accomplishment!
As a physicist (and energy expert) what we should be pushing for are Scientifically Sound Solutions.
In other words, the stakes are too high — and the costs are too great — to be simply shooting in the dark.
Scientific methodology is the tried and true way to ascertain which proposed options are legitimate, and which simply enrich lobbyists and other profiteers.
Hopefully ClimateProgress can get behind that motto: Scientifically Sound Solutions, and that that can be the underying theme for ALL of their recommendations.
John droz, jr.,
If you're serious, and really want good science to be a major factor in evaluating societal options, I'm with you all the way. But "sound science" has become a Republican code phrase for a system of obfuscating, bureaucratizing, politicizing and denying ACTUAL sound science in fields as diverse as evolution, epidemiology, climate, wildlife biology, and many others.
It is clear that some people are in fact advocating inaction, not only on climate catastrophe but on most or all other ecological threats to humans and biodiversity as well, and that some of those people are funding science and pseudoscience that is being accepted and even distributed by the conservative advocates of so-called "sound science".
Also, to define someone as knowledgable or not depending on their opinions on one issue seems like an invitation to manipulative tautology, while to speak in generalities that mean essentially nothing, and COULD come to mean whatever the speaker wants them to mean, is pretty shaky ground rhetorically, philosophically, scientifically, relationally and credibilityally.
Please explain, or give us some examples.
Your question for clarification is appreciated. Clearly in such a format, comments are necessarily brief.
Assuring that something makes scientific sense has nothing to do with obfuscation. The simple fact is that the higher the stakes, the more sure we need to be that what we are doing is going to really work.
Instead we have adopted the opposite mentality: because the stakes are so high, we "don't have time" to make sure that our "solutions" really work. That is insanity.
That mentality has also paved the way for profiteers to jump in and say: "Since you are going to spend hundreds of Billions of dollars, I have a solution that will be REALLY good!"
They have zero proof of their product's efficacy, and are banking on this "do anything" mentality for people to say "Great, let's give this guy $200 Billion and see how it works out in 2030. His promise is good enough for us!"
This is the type of foolishness that happens when we depart from scientific methodology.
That's the gist of my main concern.
I have an electrical energy presentation that explains more "www.slideshare.net/JohnDroz/energy-presentationkey-presentation".
So I checked out your site, got to #24 out of 151, and disagreed with almost everything in it so far. I will look at more later, but most of your 'statements of fact' were either wrong, or were opinions–which I just happened to disagree with. Wind HAS been proven technically, it IS sound environmentally (didn't come to any birdkill nonsense but i sense it in the wind, so just in case… vehicles, windows, communication towers etc kill thousands of times more birds than windmills (which are .04% of deaths caused by objects–4 hundredths of a percent!–not even counting pollution, habitat loss here and at the other end of their migrations, and "other"–plastic islands in the Pacific and such, and per generator kills get smaller all the time as siting and design are improved). It IS proven to be financially sound. See Rocky Mountain Institute, eg.
Even as one trained in psychotherapy I continue to be baffled why a small minority of people hates wind power with such a burning intensity that they make a screech louder than 10,000 times their actual number. The hatred is almost always supported by multiple, false and irrelevant (to the opposer) points. That is, for example, Republicans who never cared about saving a bird in their lives all of a sudden are shedding crocodile bird tears over half a dozen being killed by windmills while ignoring the trillions that have been wiped out by industrial pollution, apotheosized by the coal plants the windmills could replace. When something isn't about what someone says it's about, you gotta wonder what it IS about…
You who go apoplectic at the sight of a windmill but say nothing and almost certainly don't even notice the thousands upon thousands of miles of incredibly ugly transmission lines you've passed under or driven along in your life… I don't get you.
But I don't expect an answer; people are even less conscious of their real motivations than they are of what they drive past–and therefore most deny they have any other motivations besides the ones they've adopted as (unconscious) smokescreens.
When I got into goat dairying I thought the goats that experienced people liked were ugly–emaciated, malformed… I came to appreciate their beauty over time, partly through form-follows-function thinking, partly through affection coloring my perception. Even though I prefer small-scale local and residential on-site wind and solar (cause of those pesky T-lines as well as economic democracy and deconcentration of wealth) I happen to think windmills are almost as beautiful as tall ships; my heart soars when i see either, even more when i see a hundred on a ridge, (windmills, not tall ships–a hundred of them on a ridge would be a sign of…well, something bad…) because i know not only are birds being saved but people and frogs and orchids and solitary bees are being saved by the decrease in mercury, radiation, heat, climate change, particulates, and the subsidiary destruction caused by most energy use…
It's easy to not look for an answer and then say there is no answer; or to look where you know the answer isn't and then say it's not there. It's easy to not look for evidence and then claim that such evidence doesn't exist. It's also bad science. Stop projecting. Get someone to take the beam out of your eye.
This is why I asked for examples. If you said almost the same things about nuclear, about coal, about the unexamined use of oil and its monstrous unintended effects, you would be right. If you said most of that about hydrogen I'd agree with you, or if you claimed AGW deniers were using those bad-science arguments you mentioned, you'd have me all the way. Why, oh why oh why do you feel it so compelling to shut off the BS-detecting part of your spidey sense to pick on such a benign, positive force for good as wind power? Can you examine your innermost feelings and give me just a clue?
And of course I apologize if you miraculously reverse or brilliantly prove everything in the rest of your slide show. pardon me for going on so long; now I must be off to suffer through more absurdist propaganda.
Thank you for looking at the energy presentation. I'm puzzled that you make statemements regarding wind turbines appearances, yet the position in the presentation has nothing to do with their looks.
Yes we have "put up" with shortcomings with other sources of electricity (e.g. nuclear) but these sources provide us 1) reliable, 2) dispatchable, 3) baseload, 4) inexpensive electricity. These are the foundation of our modern society.
Wind energy provides NONE of those items.
My email address is on the presentation, so please email me about any perceived errors, providing the independent scientific real-world evidence that proves something I said wrong. If you do that, I will gladly make an immediate change.

started taking pictures right out of the box, so it's easy to use - but deleting pictures is too complicated. software loading on the PC took a long time and doesn't seem to work well. took some pictures, then a video and then tried to take more pictures - but the camera wouldn;t store them - I suspect a limitation not noted that you can't mix picures and movies together. OK camera for the price - flash works well. have only used auto setting to date. this camera can't capture picture with any movement
I bought this mainly because of it's size and the rechargable battery. I was pleasantly surprised by the clear photos it takes. It has fun features to play with, like fish eye lens, also. Great little camera for the money.
I was looking for a user friendly camera and this is it. Canon's are known for good quality and this model was right for my budget. I use it several times a week to take product photography for art I sell on Etsy. The photos come out crisp and clear, the coloring is accurate, details and texture come out wonderfully. I love it. Oh, and how can I forget, it captures my busy toddler who won't sit still for a photo very well. :-)
Very poor quality photos on medium - low light, very grainy photos and Video. You can get a way better Canon camera for a little more money. Returned to the store without a problem. I would not recommend this camera if you are looking for good quality photos/videos.
I returned the camera because the battery would not stay in place? Kept popping up. I also was not aware that it was a lithium battery which costs approx $40.00 to replace. Would not have liked that either. So I can't really say what kind of pictures it took?
Great phone! My first Cannon camera, set-up was easy. I just programmed my camera and starting using it right away. You must first charge the battery, before using. Otherwise pictures come out so sharp and clear! Great purchase, and price !!
This is a very good camera. I have only had it a few of months and have not been disappointed yet. I love the fact that it takes pictures in action without adjusting anything. The pictures overall have been great and the price was awesome.
The camera came right on time and easy to use. I haven't had a camera with a battery pack so Im interested in seeing how well the battery lasts.
This camera takes excellent photos and video. It is easy to use and has some very nice features.

This is another staple in my kitchen... since the 70's when it was labeled Brewers Yeast. However I do not know if this brand is the best; it happens to be the only one I have found since I moved back to California. In Montana I was able to buy 5 pound bags of nutritional yeast for under $23. That tasted very good and was affordable on a Senior's limited budget.
it helps

Is windows 7 home edition sufficient for running adobe's software (Illustrator, Photoshop) and 3D Studio max, or do I need the pro or ultimate editions?
Yes. Any version of Windows 7 can run Adobe's applications and 3D Studio Max just fine. You don't need a special version of Windows to run those applications, however, I would go for a 64-bit version of Windows 7. It's more likely that you'll be bound by your hardware than the Operating System.
