I have used this plugin with a SIGNIFICANT performance boost... it really does make things a lot faster. However, I have noticed that it makes my membership site completely useless due to its interference with Wishlist Member (my membership and content protection plugin) and Simple Press, my forum plugin.
With wishlist member, the registration process simply doesn't work. When someone registers for the site, it simply redirects them back to my homepage and nothing really happens... no new user account is created. I noticed that this problem seems to go away when I remove "page caching". The user is then correctly redirected to the "Confirm your email address page."
With simple press, the problems are a little more complicated. The minification of javascript seems to eliminate the ability to upload pictures and whatnot because it hampers the TinyMCE toolbar entirely. Any users posting ability is very limited. Also, the plugin prevents users from updating their personal profiles. The display name and other info just cant be changed. It can be changed from within the WP admin page, but not in simple press. Clicking the update profile options button just doesn't seem to illicit any response whatsoever.
I have a couple of questions:
1. Is there any way that I can change page caching options to not interfere with wishlist member? The wishlist plugin is really the backbone of my site... it helps to manage my emails and obviously makes sure that my paid content stays protected.
2. Is there any way that I can get w3 total cache to COMPLETELY EXCLUDE any of my forum page or subpages? The forum is reasonably simple so I dont think that it really needs to enhancement of w3 total cache. I would be willing to change options within the w3 plugin to make it work, but i just wonder what kinds of other issues will pop up. If I could exclude my forum page entirely, I would be happy with that.
Thank you all very much for your time!

Ontology: minimalism and truth-conditions

In this paper, I develop a criticism to a method for metaontology, namely, the idea that a discourse's or theory's ontological commitments can be read off its sentences' truth-conditions. Firstly, I will put forward this idea's basis and, secondly, I will present the way Quine subscribed to it (not actually for hermeneutical or historic interest, but as a way of exposing the idea). However, I distinguish between two readings of Quine's famous ontological criterion, and I center the focus on (assuming without further discussion the other one to be mistaken) the one currently dubbed "ontological minimalism", a kind of modern Ockhamism applied to the mentioned metaontological view. I show that this view has a certain application via Quinean thesis of reference inscrutability but that it is not possible to press that application any further and, in particular, not for the ambitious metaontological task some authors try to employ. The conclusion may sound promising: having shown the impossibility of a semantic ontological criterion, intentionalist or subjectivist ones should be explored.

Steve McQueen Movie showings:
Tuesday, August 23rd at 6pm
"The Great Escape"
The Beech Grove Public Library formally dedicated its new Steve McQueen Birthplace Collection on March 16th at 6:00 p.m. The event opened with 4 nights of free showings of the 'birth' of the famous television and motion picture star's performing career.
The local commemoration of the 80th anniversary of McQueen's birth on March 24, 1930, involved free film showings on March 16, 18, 22, and 23, 2010, at 6:00 pm each evening at the Library. The initial program consisted of McQueen's key live television drama appearance in 1957 on Studio One, then 3 nights of 3 episodes each from his 'breakthrough' Western television series Wanted Dead or Alive (1958 to 1961).
Local resident Steve Nontell was the host for these events. As the host, he shared information about the programs being viewed and about Steve McQueen's life. The large display case in the front lobby showcases the Steve McQueen Birthplace Collection.
The Collection, available for viewing and use at the Library as a special Reserved section within its Historical Room, honors McQueen as being the most notable world-famous celebrity to have ever been born in Beech Grove. McQueen grew up in other locations in Indiana, Missouri, and California, after he was moved in infancy with his family away from the city.
The Collection initially consists of authorized DVD's of all available McQueen motion pictures; authorized DVD's of many McQueen television appearances, including all 3 seasons of Wanted Dead Or Alive; and several published biographies and books on him. The Library would welcome future donations to the Collection of other books, articles, and artifacts on his life and career.
The Library hopes to offer more free public showings of the movies and TV appearances, as well as to make the Collection available for viewing and reading by students, researchers, journalists, and other members of the public.

Diplomatic Deadbeats: New York City Collects Back Taxes on UN Missions
The decision for the court here is simply whether the two governments have sovereign immunity under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act. The court ruled that an exception to sovereign immunity applied where "rights . . . in immovable property in the United States are in issue." (28 U.S.C. §1605(a)(4)).
Interestingly, the two governments did not argue that they have immunity from taxes under either the Vienna Convention for Diplomatic Relations or the U.N. Headquarters Agreement. I'm not familiar enough with those treaties to know if some further protections might exist, but I believe those protections extend only to the ambassador-level (and neither of the properties house ambassadors to the UN).
There probably isn't anything profoundly important going on here. Just a run-of-the-mill dispute that international law, in this case in the form of a federal statute, provides a sensible rule of decision.

The Beauty of Nature As a Foundation for Environmental Ethics: China and the West
Date: May 2012
Creator: Gao, Shan
Description: My dissertation aims at constructing an environmental ethics theory based on environmental aesthetics in order to advocate and promote environmentally sustainable practices, policies, and lifestyles. I attempt to construct an integrated environmental aesthetics in order to inspire people's feelings of love towards nature and motivate them to protect it. In order to achieve this goal, I first examine the philosophical understanding and aesthetic appreciation of nature from philosophical traditions of China, which have an impact on the general public's attitude towards nature. in chapter one of my dissertation, I point out that nature is viewed as an organic system which is always in a self-generating process of production and reproduction of life. the metaphysical foundation for this perspective of nature is ch'i. Therefore the aesthetic appreciation of nature in China is also the aesthetic appreciation of ch'i. with regard to the concept of ch'i, I focus on the following three questions: (1) what are the objective and aesthetic features of ch'i? (2) How do the Chinese appreciate aesthetic features of ch'i? (3) Why the objective features of ch'i are regarded as the objects of aesthetic appreciation? I argue that the Chinese appreciate the aesthetic features of ch'i by using intellectual ...

Biodiversity Loss, the Motivation Problem, and the Future of Conservation Education in the United States
Date: December 2011
Creator: Grove-Fanning, William
Description: The purpose of this dissertation is to make sense of two sets of reactions. On the one hand, Americans can barely lift a finger to help threatened and endangered species while on the other, they routinely come to the aid of human victims of disaster. I argue that in contrast to cases of human tragedy, for the biodiversity crisis conservationists are faced not only with the familiar yet arduous task of motivating the American public to care for living other-than-humans, but they are also saddled with having to overcome the motivation problem of future ethics. The motivation problem consists in eliminating or bridging a motivational gap that lies between knowledge of the effects of our actions on future generations and action taken based upon such knowledge. The gap exists because motives that typically move people to action are either ineffective or unavailable. What is more, the gap influences not only our ability to care for future humans, but it affects our ability to care for future other-than-humans as well. Biodiversity loss is in fact a subset of the problem of future generations, an identification hitherto little appreciated. I argue that conservationists can overcome the motivational gap not by appealing directly ...

The Character of Environmental Citizenship: Virtue Education for Raising Morally Responsible Individuals
Date: May 2013
Creator: Lindemann, Monica A.
Description: Surely, moral education is not merely intended to result in theoretical knowledge, but instead attempts to change people's behavior. However, when examining and evaluating current trends in moral education, it appears that hitherto moral education has fallen short of its goal to make people better. In this paper, I try to determine what has caused this perceived failure of moral education and conclude that approaches that focus on teaching moral reasoning skills rather than on teaching actual moral content, i.e., values and virtues, are generally ineffective for moral improvement. However, a more traditional form of moral education, namely character education, appears to be a viable alternative to the moral reasoning methods. Since character education can be regarded as the practical application of virtue ethics, I first describe and evaluate virtue ethics and defend it against potential criticisms. I then examine what methods are effective for teaching virtues, and how such methods can potentially be incorporated into the curriculum. Since virtues cannot be taught through theoretical instruction, the acquisition of good habits constitutes the necessary foundation for the establishment of good moral character. Some methods that have been suggested for laying the foundation for virtue are the use of stories, role ...

The Contribution of Mira Behn and Sarala Behn to Social and Environmental Transformation in the Indian State of Uttarakhand
Date: May 2014
Creator: Mallik, Bidisha
Description: The influence of Mohandas K. Gandhi on social and environmental movements in post-colonial India has been widely acknowledged. Yet, the contributions of two European associates of Gandhi, Madeleine Slade and Catherine Mary Heilemann, better known in India as Mira Behn and Sarala Behn, have not received the due attention of the academic community. This dissertation is an examination of the philosophy and social activism of Mira Behn and Sarala Behn and their roles in the evolution of Gandhian philosophy of socioeconomic reconstruction and environmental conservation in the present Indian state of Uttarakhand. Instead of just being acolytes of Gandhi, I argue that these women developed ideas and practices that drew upon from an extensive intellectual terrain that cannot be limited to Gandhi's work. I delineate the directions in which Gandhian thought and experiments in rural development work evolved through the lives, activism, and written contributions of these two women. Particularly, I examine their influence on social and environmental movements, such as the Chipko and the Anti-Tehri Dam movements, and their roles in promoting grassroots social development and environmental sustainability in the mountain communities of Uttarakhand. Mira Behn and Sarala Behn's integrative philosophical worldviews present epistemological, sociopolitical, ethical, and metaphysical principles ...

Ecological Forms of Life: Wittgenstein and Ecolinguistics
Date: December 2012
Creator: Sarratt, Nicholas M.
Description: The present philosophical literature on philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein tends to either stagnate by focusing upon issues particular to Wittgenstein's philosophy or expand the boundaries of Wittgenstein's thought to shed light onto other areas of study. One area that has largely been ignored is the realm of environmental philosophy. I prepare the way for a solution to this by first arguing that Wittgenstein's later philosophy of language shows 'proto-ecolinguistic' concerns, sharing much in common with the ecolinguistic thought of both Peter Mühlhäusler and Luisa Maffi. This reading, as well as the work of Mühlhäusler and Maffi, is a starting point for an opposition to a common trend in much of contemporary linguistics of adhering to a linguistic paradigm of universalizing linguistic atomism that gives an impoverished account of language. This impoverished account is argued to have potential environmental and ecological consequences which the universalizing atomistic paradigm is ill-equipped to address.

Environmental Imagination: the Constitution and Projection of a Sustainable Ethos
Date: December 2014
Creator: Day, Philip Garrett
Description: This dissertation provides a theoretical analysis and examination of the role of imagination in the formation of an environmental ethos. The majority of ethical theories in environmental thought largely neglect the role that imagination plays in both the relationships that humans form with their environment, and the subsequent role that imagination plays in constituting the way that those relationships are understood ethically. To explore the role of imagination in constituting and subsequently projecting such an ethical way of being, this dissertation selectively analyzes the history of imagination in philosophy, cognitive science, and environmental thought. In addition, this dissertation also explores the role that images play in forming collective responses to environmental disasters, and the further role that imagination plays in overcoming the moral motivation gap.

The Environmental is Political: Exploring the Geography of Environmental Justice
Date: August 2010
Creator: Mysak, Mark
Description: The dissertation is a philosophical approach to politicizing place and space, or environments broadly construed, that is motivated by three questions. How can geography be employed to analyze the spatialities of environmental justice? How do spatial concepts inform understandings of environmentalism? And, how can geography help overcome social/political philosophy's redistribution-recognition debate in a way that accounts for the multiscalar dimensions of environmental justice? Accordingly, the dissertation's objective is threefold. First, I develop a critical geography framework that explores the spatialities of environmental injustices as they pertain to economic marginalization across spaces of inequitable distribution, cultural subordination in places of misrecognition, and political exclusion from public places of deliberation and policy. Place and space are relationally constituted by intricate networks of social relations, cultural practices, socioecological flows, and political-economic processes, and I contend that urban and natural environments are best represented as "places-in-space." Second, I argue that spatial frameworks and environmental discourses interlock because conceptualizations of place and space affect how environments are perceived, serve as framing devices to identify environmental issues, and entail different solutions to problems. In the midst of demonstrating how the racialization of place upholds inequitable distributions of pollution burdens, I introduce notions of "social location" and ...

Environmental Philosophy and the Ethics of Terraforming Mars: Adding the Voices of Environmental Justice and Ecofeminism to the Ongoing Debate
Date: August 2013
Creator: French, Robert Heath
Description: Questions concerning the ethics of terraforming Mars have received some attention from both philosophers and scientists during recent decades. A variety of theoretical approaches have been supplied by a number of authors, however research pursuant to this thesis has indicated at least two major blindspots in the published literature on the topic. First, a broad category of human considerations involving risks, dangers, and social, political, and economic inequalities that would likely be associated with efforts to terraform Mars have been woefully overlooked in the published literature to date. I attempt to rectify that oversight by employing the interpretive lens of environmental justice to address questions of environmental colonialism, equality in terms of political participation and inclusion in decision making structures, risks associated with technological progressivism, and responses to anthropogenic climate change. Only by including the historically marginalized and politically disenfranchised "voices," of both humans and nonhumans, can any future plan to terraform Mars be deemed ethical, moral or just according to the framework provided by environmental justice. Furthermore, broader political inclusion of this sort conforms to what ecofeminist author Val Plumwood calls the "intentional recognition stance" and provides an avenue through which globally societies can include nonanthropocentric considerations in decision ...

Expertise Revisited: Reflecting on the Intersection of Science and Democracy in the Case of Fracking
Date: December 2015
Creator: Ahmadi, Mahdi
Description: This dissertation aims to explain the conditions under which expertise can undermine democratic decision making. I argue that the root of the conflict between expertise and democracy lies in what I call insufficiently "representative" expertise – that is forms of scientific research that are not relevant to the policy questions at hand and that fail to make visible their hidden values dimensions. I claim that the scholarly literature on the problem of expertise fails to recognize and address the issue correctly, because it does not open the black box of scientific methodologies. I maintain that only by making sense of the methodological choices of experts in the context of policy making can we determine the relevance of research and reveal the hidden socio-political values and consequences. Using the case of natural gas fracking, I demonstrate how expert contributions – even though epistemically sound – can muddle democratic policy processes. I present four case studies from controversies about fracking to show how to contextualize scientific methodologies in the pertinent political process. I argue that the common problem across all case studies is the failure of expertise to sufficiently represent stakeholders' problems and concerns. In this context, "representation" has three criteria: (1) ...

The Green Horizon: An (Environmental) Hermeneutics of Identification with Nature through Literature
Date: August 2010
Creator: Bell, Nathan M.
Description: This thesis is an examination of transformative effects of literature on environmental identity. The work begins by examining and expanding the Deep Ecology concept of identification-with-nature. The potential problems with identification through direct encounters are used to argue for the relevance of the possibility of identification-through-literature. Identification-through-literature is then argued for using the hermeneutic and narrative theories of Hans-Georg Gadamer and Paul Ricoeur, as well as various examples of nature writing and fiction.

Business briefs from across the nation and around the world
Wal-Mart to accelerate small-store growth
NEW YORK -- Wal-Mart Stores Inc. says it's accelerating its expansion of small stores as it looks to compete with a variety of rivals, from dollar stores to drug chains.
The company told investors at its analysts' meeting Wednesday that it plans to have a total of 500 Neighborhood Market stores and a total of 12 Express stores by fiscal 2016.
Bill Simon, president of Wal-Mart's U.S. division, says that Neighborhood Market stores have generated a 5 percent increase in revenue at stores opened at least a year for the first half of this year. That's more than double the growth rate of Wal-Mart's average store.
New book digs into Netflix's origins, evolution
SAN FRANCISCO -- Netflix is probably hoping a new book about its early history never gets made into a movie.
The book, "Netflixed: The Epic Battle for America's Eyeballs," tries to debunk a widely told tale about the company's origins and paints a polarizing portrait of its star Chief Executive Reed Hastings.
Set to go on sale today, the book arrives at a pivotal time for Netflix Inc. The video subscription service is still recovering from a customer backlash triggered by Hastings' hasty decision to raise U.S. prices by as much as 60 percent in 2011. Investors remain leery of Netflix as its expenses for Internet video rights steadily climb.
U.S. wholesale stockpiles grew 0.5 percent
WASHINGTON -- U.S. wholesalers increased their stockpiles in August and their sales rose for the first time in four months. The gains could provide a boost to the still-weak economy.
The Commerce Department said Wednesday that wholesale stockpiles grew 0.5 percent in August after a 0.6 percent increase in July. Sales jumped 0.9 percent in August, ending three months of declines. The sales increase was the biggest one-month gain since February.
Total wholesale inventories stood at $487.5 billion. That's 26.9 percent higher than the post-recession low hit in September 2009.
It would take about five weeks to exhaust the stockpiles at the August sales pace. Steven Wood, chief economist at Insight Economics, said the level remains fairly lean, even after the modest increase in inventories over the summer when sales slipped.
Investors get first look at big FedEx cost cut plan
NEW YORK -- Investors are driving up shares of FedEx Corp. after the world's second-largest package delivery company promised to boost profits by shedding jobs, aircraft and underused assets.
FedEx plans to boost profit by $1.7 billion within three years. The much anticipated restructuring is a response to a shift by customers to slower, less expensive means of delivery as the global economy struggles to grow.
Founder and Chief Executive Fred Smith said most of the cost cuts will come in the company's Express and Services units.
China auto sales fall as Japanese brands shunned
BEIJING -- China's auto sales shrank in September as a territorial dispute with Tokyo prompted buyers to avoid Japanese brands, hurting already weakening demand.
Sales of passenger vehicles declined 0.3 percent from a year earlier to 1.32 million units, the state-sanctioned China Association of Automobile Manufacturers said Wednesday.
The group blamed the tensions with Japan but the decline also reflects the impact of China's deepest economic slowdown since the 2008 global crisis. Sales in some cities have been hurt by local measures to control congestion by liming new registrations.
Sales growth in the world's biggest auto market by vehicles sold has declined from June's 15.8 percent to 11 percent in July and 3.7 percent in August.
Toshiba raises stake in Westinghouse
TOKYO -- Toshiba Corp. is raising its stake in U.S. nuclear power unit Westinghouse Electric despite uncertainty about the future of the technology in Japan after the nuclear disaster in Fukushima.
The Japanese electronics maker said Wednesday it will purchase another 20 percent stake from U.S.-based Shaw Group for 125 billion yen ($1.6 billion), raising Toshiba's ownership to 87 percent.
Westinghouse operates four nuclear reactors in the U.S. and four in China, and is talking with potential partners to expand its business.

I hired Mr Madsen when he was working in his Walnut Creek office. At first he was responsive and showed enthusiasm and energy in working on my case. The case proved to be longer than Mr Madsen had anticipated. To my disappointment he lost interest in my case and towards the end my defense was just average at best.

Rick is THE BEST. Hands down. Knows the law, knows the process and the ins and outs of the system better than anyone -- it's all about who you know? Well, he knows EVERYBODY. Straight shooter, does not sugar coat to "sell" himself, he doesn't have to. Referred to me with the highest regard and now I can personally say he was worth every single penny. One mistake could have cost me everything, but it didn't. Could not be more pleased with the outcome he was able to pull together for my situation.
Posted by a DUI & DWI client
I hired Rick Madsen to represent me in a DUI I received in Walnut Creek last year, and I was very happy with the outcome. Rick personally handled my case every step of the way, he arranged it so that I would not have to take time off work to go to court, and had my case reduced to a wet reckless so that I wouldn't have a DUI on my record. He was also able to get me a restricted driver's license, instead of gettign suspended by DMV. Would definitely recommend, but fyi -- I will take a cab next time.

U.S. Launches Ebola Vaccine Trial
By Steven Reinberg
HealthDay Reporter
THURSDAY, Sept. 4, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- Two women have been given an experimental Ebola vaccine as the U.S. National Institutes of Health launches a much-anticipated trial to combat the often-lethal virus that has plagued four West African nations.
The women, ages 39 and 27, are the first people to receive the vaccine, which had previously been tested only in monkeys, ABC News reported.
The fast-tracked clinical trial will test the safety of the vaccine and will include 20 men and women ages 18 to 50. No one will be infected with the disease. The vaccine was developed by the U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and drug maker GlaxoSmithKline.
Human testing of the vaccine was expedited due to West Africa's Ebola outbreak that has killed more than 1,900 people.
"There is an urgent need for a protective Ebola vaccine, and it is important to establish that a vaccine is safe and spurs the immune system to react in a way necessary to protect against infection," NIAID Director Dr. Anthony Fauci said in a statement.
In a related matter, drug maker Johnson & Johnson said Thursday that it will seek to "fast-track" the development of what is called a promising new combination vaccine against Ebola. The start of the trial is scheduled for early 2015.
U.S. and global health officials on Wednesday underscored the need for greater resources -- both medical and financial -- to fight the Ebola outbreak in West Africa. The spread of the disease is outpacing efforts to control it, it could pose a global threat and will cost at least $600 million to contain it, officials said.
"This is not an African disease. This is a virus that is a threat to all humanity," Gayle Smith, special assistant to President Barack Obama and senior director at the U.S. National Security Council, told reporters during a news briefing, the Associated Press reported.
The highly virulent disease is spreading faster than health workers in Guinea, Liberia, Nigeria and Sierra Leone can manage, Dr. Tom Kenyon, director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Center for Global Health, said during the briefing.

President Barack Obama is introduced by Florida Gov. Charlie Crist at a town hall style meeting about the economy, Tuesday, Feb. 10, 2009, at Harborside Event Center in Fort Myers, Fla. (AP Photo/Charles Dharapak)
WASHINGTON (AP) - Florida's Republican governor says the GOP
should be willing to work with Democrats in a time of economic
Charlie Crist is taking some heat from those in his party who
say he's too supportive of President Barack Obama's economic
stimulus bill.
Appearing Sunday on NBC's "Meet the Press," Crist says that
he's willing to give the new president "a shot" and to try to
help make his economic recovery plan work. The package passed
Congress with almost no Republican support.
According to Crist, the key for the GOP to regain power in
Washington is doing what's right for Americans. He says that means
taking an approach to governing that is compassionate and fiscally
conservative and marked by common sense.

Chargers Camp Report: Day 15
By Eric D. Williams
SAN DIEGO -- A daily review of the hot topics coming out of
San Diego Chargers
training camp:
A day after participating fully in practice, defensive end
Corey Liuget
was back in a walking boot on his right foot to protect a nagging ankle injury on Tuesday. Liuget has been dealing with this issue since tweaking the injury during one-on-one pass-rush drills two weeks ago. He's tried to play through the pain during practice, but ultimately the Chargers are being proactive in getting the team's best defensive lineman some rest so that Liuget's injury does not linger throughout August and into the regular season. "It's just a cautionary deal to make sure we get it corrected early," said Liuget, when asked about sitting out of Tuesday's practice.
Eric Weddle
made a nice spin move during one-on-one pass-rush drills that left running back
Ryan Mathews
reaching for air. Outside linebacker
Dwight Freeney
did the same thing a few plays later going against
Ladarius Green
After an impressive performance against Dallas, undrafted rookie free-agent running back Branden Oliver's best chance to make the final roster likely will be as a returner. It appears that Oliver will get that opportunity, as he worked as a kick returner and punt returner during the special teams drills for San Diego.
Antonio Gates
had one of his best practices this training camp, scoring two touchdowns during the red zone period and making one of his trademark acrobatic catches over the middle of the field with safety
Darrell Stuckey
in coverage. The 34-year-old tight end appears to be in great shape and has been moving well during camp.
Along with Liuget, receiver
Vincent Brown
(calf) and defensive end
Lawrence Guy
did not practice on Tuesday. Guard
Jeromey Clary
(shoulder, hip) remains on the physically unable to perform (PUP) list. Cornerback
Jason Verrett
still is wearing a red jersey, as the Chargers continue to protect his surgically repaired shoulder.
Up next: After their final training camp practice open to the public on Tuesday, the Chargers will practice on Wednesday at Chargers Park at a time to be determined by the team. The practice will be closed to the public.

Aaron Tveit is honest enough to kiss and tell.
The actor, who has played Blake Lively's love interest on television and now plays James Franco's in the movies, didn't mind comparing the two when it comes to their lip-locking styles.
How does Franco fare? "He was fine," Tveit told PEOPLE nonchalantly on Wednesday at the New York premiere of Howl, which costars Franco.
And how about Lively, whom Tveit romanced as Trip van de Bilt on Gossip Girl? "She was awesome," he replied enthusiastically. Better than Franco? "Yeah, sorry James," Tveit said with a smile. More of an electric charge with Lively? "Yes," Tveit admitted. "Definitely!"
Perhaps the scene with Franco was just unfamiliar territory – since it was the first time Tveit had kissed a man. How did Tveit prepare to shoot the scene? "I guess some breath mints," he says. "Make sure everyone's on the same page."
"Luckily it was the last day I worked on the movie, so it was easier," he says. "I'm wearing underwear, and he's wearing clothes."
For his part, Franco – who plays beat poet Allen Ginsberg in Howl and also kissed Sean Penn's character in Milk – told PEOPLE that doing same-sex love scenes isn't a big deal for him.
"I don't really think about it," he said. "I just do it."

Blacks Fare Worse With Esophageal Cancer
Jan. 18, 2005 -- Blacks with esophageal cancer fare worse than whites in just about every category, and the difference can be life or death.
The racial gap was spotted by researchers including Ewout Steyerberg, PhD, of the public health department in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. Their findings appear in The Journal of Clinical Oncology's Jan. 20 edition.
Steyerberg is Dutch, but the data comes from America. The researchers studied Medicare records of about 3,300 elderly patients with cancer of the esophagus -- the hollow, muscular tube that connects the mouth to the stomach.
Almost 3,000 of the patients were white. The rest were black.
Typically, fewer than 10% of esophageal cancer patients survive five years, say the researchers. However, surgery can make a big difference. About 20% live disease-free for at least five years if surgery removes their cancer before it spreads.
In the study, black patients were half as likely to get esophageal cancer surgery as whites. They were also less likely to consult a surgeon and more likely to die.
A quarter of blacks got surgery, compared with 46% of whites. More blacks than whites relied on radiation as their only treatment (20% vs. 13%). In addition, more blacks than whites didn't get any cancer treatment at all (26% vs. 15%).
Blacks were also less likely to be seen by a surgeon -- 70% of black patients compared with 78% of whites.
Fewer blacks who talked to surgeons went ahead with surgery. Almost a third of black patients who had a surgical consultation had surgery. But among whites who had a surgical consultation, nearly 60% underwent surgery.
That might explain why blacks had a lower survival rate at every turn. For example, six months after being diagnosed 64% of white patients were alive compared with 58% of blacks. Two years after diagnosis 25% of whites were alive compared with 18% of blacks.
Blacks were about two years younger than whites, on average (72 vs. 74 years). However, they were more likely to have other medical conditions, such as heart disease, diabetes, and kidney problems.
Still, medical problems don't totally explain the gap, say the researchers. They urge health care providers to do a better job of encouraging black patients to consult surgeons and consider surgery's benefits.

"I LOVE SOUTH AFRICA" Richards Bay by Weny
Richards Bay Travel Guide: 10 reviews and 22 photos
First, let me say every single person I've met has who has the fortune to visit South Africa has loved it. Yes, it has many problems but somehow between the beauty of the landscape, the animals, and the people it just seems to work. I would go back there in a flash if I could! I did a capture and release project when I was there. We were catching crocodiles and tagging them. The Nile crocodile is the king of the St. Lucia ecosystem, which is a huge estuary bordered by vegetated sand dunes (now a UNESCO world heritage site). The sand dunes have to be seen to be believed. You can see all the big five in the area as well and Umfolozi game park ( once Shaka Zulu's personal hunting ground) is only a short drive away.
We visited a traditional Zulu village that was more like a living museum. They had beehive huts, hand made baskets and hand worked spears, which were amazingly sharp! Then we watched a performance, a traditional pre-war dance because as we know Zulus are fierce warriors!
This is a view from Shaka Zulu's private hunting ground, now Umfolozi/Hulawhwe National Park. This a great place to see rhino, wildebeest, impala, kudu,elephants (I didn't get to see any :( ) and lions.
- Pros:So much to see, so many animals and habitats
- Cons:It's hard to do everything so plan well and in advance
- In a nutshell:I loved it, if their economy ever improves I'm moving there!

For nine years now, the Connecticut chapter of the National Alliance on Mental Illness has sponsored a walk to fight the stigma that many still attach to mental illness.
By coming out en masse, we showed the world that we and our family members are indistinguishable from the rest of the human race. Also, we have walked to raise funds to support those who are living with a mental illness.
This is year 10, and, sadly, in the wake of the tragedy of Sandy Hook Elementary School, the stigma we've been fighting all these years has a new hold on the nation. Indeed, much of my work consists of helping people who have a mental illness, and I am already encountering cases in which persons have been turned down for jobs because of their mental health history.
Never has it been more important for those of us living with a mental illness to confront the stigma head-on.
Truth be told, persons with a mental illness commit only about 4 percent of the violent crimes. Indeed, they are more likely to be the victims of violent crime than the rest of the population.
And yet, the National Rifle Association would have us focus our energies not on the guns that enable men to wreak mayhem but on those with a mental illness.
In the words of NRA head Wayne LaPierre, "We have no national database of these lunatics."
Most murders and mass murders are committed by angry men with a grudge to settle. So a "national database" of persons who have ever had a history of mental illness would do virtually nothing to reduce the number of horrific crimes committed with semi-automatic weapons.
Not only that, but creating such a database would in effect be giving the law's imprimatur to the stigma. We would be institutionalizing discrimination against those of us who ever sought medical care for a mental illness, and in so doing, we would be discouraging people from seeking the help they need.
The simple fact is this: Mental illness is not a predictor of violent behavior. A history of violent behavior may be a predictor, but, as we've seen in the case of Adam Lanza, there was no such public history, only his private predilection for the virtual violence of video games.

- On the other hand, consider organisms that reproduce by agametic, asexual reproduction.
- The diagnosis is made by the observation of intracellular asexual forms of the parasite on thick and thin blood smears.
- This, combined with a sufficiently high rate of deleterious mutation, can allow sexual genotypes to outcompete asexual genotypes in the face of the twofold cost of sex.
- To experimentally measure this distribution requires either an asexual organism or a sexual line that is genetically homogeneous (homozygotic at each locus).

text: I read the article and I think it was more talking about guns that had been modified or a revolver that was cocked to be SA. I don't think a gun like a standard, unmodified, 1911 would be a liability as the gun is functioning like it is intended. The argument was that if you modify a gun to have a "hair trigger" it could cost you in court. Not sure if I agree with that but Ayoob (think he wrote that article) has much more experience on this than I do. And besides, on a duty/carry gun a trigger job isn't necessary, again IMO.

Free Video Lessons!Get free lessons in Math, Algebra,Calculus & more in your inbox!
Lesson Summary:In this lesson, you'll learn how to take higher order derivatives in calculus. First, we explain what a higher order derivative is and how it relates to a second derivate and a third derivative. Then, we work numerous example problems to show the technique and how to check your work.
Second and third order derivatives are central to math for many reasons, but one of the most important reasons is in the study of physics. The second derivative of a function can be used to describe the velocity of an object. The third order derivative can be used to describt the acceleration of an object.
Because of the practical calculations that high order derivatives represent, it is important to master the concept.

I am trying to stream a live feed through RTSP to Windows Media Player 12 and get the error:
"Windows Media Player cannot play the file because the specified protocol is not supported. If you typed a URL in the Open URL dialog box, try using a different transport protocol (for example, "http:" or "rtsp:")."
I have tried the feed with both MPEG4 and MJPEG, but WMP doesn't work with either one of them, but I can get the feed with VLC just fine.
I have read this Knowledge Base document and tried the resolutions suggested and they have not worked.
I have removed WMP through
Turn Windows Features On and Offand then manually deleted WMP from Program Files and also the files in the User directory. Yes, I reboot after turning off WMP.
I have turned off the Firewall in an attempt to verify that it is not blocking ports (you would think it would not be blocking ports since I can get the feed through VLC, but I tried it just in case).
I have also reduced my IE security settings to the lowest settings to see if it was a settings issue. Still got the error.
I do not have McAffee (others have suggested that this might cause some issues with streaming).
I am running Windows 7 x64 Professional. Other computers using Windows 7 x64 Pro can get the RTSP stream from Windows Media Player 12 (I have verified that they have the same build of WMP that I do).
I have compared registry settings between those computers that work and mine for Windows Media Player with no success.
I have tried to connect to different RTSP feeds from different encoder/decoders that I have and I get the same error as stated above, but again I can get the feeds with VLC.
(Yes, I know, why try to use Windows Media Player if VLC works? The answer is VLC doesn't work consistently, (drops ack signals and feed is lost), and I was trying to use a standard media player as a replacement.)
So the questions are: Why does my Windows Media Player 12 not recognize the RTSP protocol? And, how can I fix it so that it does?

Transmit diversity schemes have gained attention due to the promise of increased capacity and improved performance. Among these schemes, unitary space-time modulation and differentially encoded unitary space-time modulation allow for simple noncoherent decoding for flat-fading channels. In this paper, a new blind equalization algorithm for these transmission schemes in intersymbol interference (ISI) channels is proposed. A matrix-type constant modulus algorithm that exploits the unitary structure of the space-time codes is developed. The equalizer is paired with a noncoherent decoder, resulting in a completely blind, low-complexity method for decoding in the presence of ISI. A noiseless convergence analysis is conducted and verified via simulation in both noiseless and noisy cases. The performance of the overall system is evaluated via simulation and semi-analytically, and the achieved performance is between that of the ideal zero-forcing and the minimum-mean squared-error equalizers.
