Early Retirement Provisions and the Labor Force Behavior of Older Men: Evidence from Canada
We examine the (sequential) introduction of early retirement provisions to Canada's two public pension plans. These reforms provide a unique opportunity to assess the effect of public pension plan parameters on labor supply behavior, free of the biases that potentially affect the simple time-series or cross-section inference presented in many previous studies. We find that the reforms led to an increase in pension receipt but had little immediate effect on labor market behavior. This is due to the fact that men who initially took advantage of the early retirement provisions would otherwise have had limited labor market participation.

"It's tempting to say the feedback loop has gotten out of control -- to sneer at minor rock stars and hack writers who've salvaged the poem for parts, yanking their titles from it without bothering to understand it. Achebe and Didion had paid it a kind of reverence, after all, and it's safe to say Kevin Smith has not.
"But why not celebrate the trend instead? Yeats's lines work outside their context because the word pairings are brilliant in and of themselves. 'Blank and pitiless as the sun,' 'stony sleep,' 'vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle' -- they're both jarring and sonorous. Even 'slouching towards,' probably the most overused phrase of them all, retains its ominousness after all this repetition."

A woman suffered facial injuries after she was punched by an
unknown man in an inner-city nightclub on Sunday.
The woman was left nursing a swollen cheek and eye following
the unprovoked assault inside the Suburbia bar on Sunday,
about 2.30am.
''She is struggling to understand why it happened,''
Detective Graeme Smaill, of Dunedin CIB, said.
The victim was assaulted on the stairs leading towards the
dance floor.
''According to the victim and another witness, it was just
out of the blue, nothing had happened ... there was
absolutely no reason for it.''
Footage taken inside the venue and CCTV footage near the
Stuart St bar would be reviewed, he said.
Police also wanted to hear from patrons inside the venue at
the time of the incident and who may have witnessed the

I have set my site up to use permalinks with date based URLs, so posts are at '/yyyy/mm/dd/post-slug', and categories are at '/archives/cat-slug', with a page, called 'archives', as well, available at /archives/'
I would really like to prefix the post URL with 'archives' too, so a post URL or date based archive URL would be '/archives/yyyy/mm/dd/post-slug' or similar and everything blog related would be in the folder archives in the URL, (makes sense in my head). However, if I set this up, any year based url, such as 'archives/yyyy' doesn't work, and simply redirects to the 'archives' page.
Is this possible to do, or is WordPress treating the first folder after 'archives' as a category, even if it is numeric, (if so, this could be resolved and is possible in PHP frameworks like CodeIgniter - see routing at http://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/general/routing.html). Would I have to have '/archives/category/category-slug/'?

From Laptop (D:\Family Photo, D:\Videos\Home, D:\Videos\Education, D:\PDFs).
I know we can use SkyDrive or DropBox, but I think these Apps has below basic limitations which will not solve mapping for my own folders to get sync.

Please advise how we can achieve Sync between our folders?

Arts "I've Always Thought a Lot About Death": An Interview with Deborah Eisenberg
posted by March 23 at 14:30 PMon
The transcript of my interview with short-story writer Deborah Eisenberg promised in this week's Nightstand is finally online.
Discussed: Why she had never been to Seattle before, why she isn't published in the New Yorker anymore, having a heart made of synthetic plastic, death anxiety, the anxiety of teaching, novels versus short stories, David Lynch's Inland Empire, how great it is that Joan Didion is still alive, the culture of brainwashing, and the addictive properties of computer solitaire.
She's a fantastic writer and a fantastic interview subject. Enjoy.

A program for direct and proxy voting in the legislative process
- James C. MillerIII

This paper has argued that changing technology has increased opportunities for voter participation in the legislative process and has presented a proposal which takes some advantage of such possibilities. The objective has not been so much to criticize our present legislative voting arrangement, but to suggest for the future an alternative that might prove superior.
The New Left balks at the "establishment", and conservatives look with dismay upon the "liberal clique". Direct participation largely would solve these problems, by-passing intermediaries and allowing direct voter or voter-proxy approval of all legislation. If we accept the principal that, with constitutional guarantees, qualified individuals should determine as democratically and as directly as possible the decisions that affect their personal and corporate welfare, then the future holds opportunities for greater efficiency in collective action.

Is there anyone here that has all of one gender, never to have the opposite gender? For example- all girls and never any boys, or you stopped before you could find out if another gender was in the cards:)? I am thinking that we can't make boys, but that is ok. We love our family regardless. However, I would like to experience raising a little boy;) I am pretty sure this is our last baby, and I want to be on team green, but I am sure it will be a girl. As I said above, I don't think we can make boys. What are the odds that our 5th will be a girl? (we tried gender swaying in the past, but it did not work).
anyone w/ all one gender?
Mama of 4 girls here, We find out april 30th if were having another girl or a boy.
Bonnie~ Mom to Anna (10), Rinoa (8), Kathryn (5), Kairi (3), Zane (due 9/12/12)
I just found out my 6th is another boy. I love being a mom to boys!
Blessed to have 7 boys!
We have 4 boys and 1 girl. I'm pregnant with #6. It would be nice to have another girl around here, but a healthy baby is all that matters. However, I'd love to know how in the world we managed to get our daughter
Yes, we know 6 is alot. And yes, we are glad it's us too:)
Me-39 DH-39 DS-20 DS-17 DS-13 DD-10 DS-6 DD-3 and #7 due November 19, 2016. It's a girl!
I have my third in two weeks-- I have one of each but I think it would be SO neat to have a houseful of one gender... but I think we've kept trying for the opposite gender until we couldn't take any more babies on! lol

Quarrying on Saddle Hill will be discussed at a community
board meeting tomorrow, chairman Scott Weatherall says.
''The [Saddle Hill] Community Board members have been
contacted by concerned residents that there have possibly
been diggers up and around the skyline doing some work.''
The Dunedin City Council was investigating the claims by
comparing past photographs to reveal whether ''damage'' to
the ridgeline had occurred, he said.
''We would like to see all quarrying stop up there,'' Mr
Weatherall said.

FACT: The excerpt from Neal Pollack's new book in last week's Stranger—about becoming a responsible pot-smoking father by buying a vaporizer called the Silver Surfer—has apparently created a run on Silver Surfers. Today I got a letter from Tina, the sister of the Silver Surfer's creator.
We have got tons of orders from the Seattle area and one customer said it was probably because of this article. First, I want to thank you all for publishing the article but would also like contact info for Neal Pollack as I want to especially thank him as well…
Well, you're welcome Tina. Least we could do. If you'd like to send along a Silver Surfer to the office, our address is 1535 11th Avenue, 3rd Floor, Seattle, 98122.
[This has been a Neal Pollack Fact of the Day! The last NPFOTD will appear tomorrow, since tomorrow night is Pollack's event with Dan Savage, Sean Nelson, and "Awesome" at Chop Suey. 7 pm doors. 8 pm show. Trumpets! Drums! Booze! Singing and talking! A communal bong! And best of all: no cover!]

Will Muschamp is in 'Sunday Brunch'
We're moving along quickly with this "Sunday Brunch" as you must have holiday shopping to do and I have all of my Christmas shopping to get done as I slept through Black Friday and my computer picked up a virus on Cyber Monday. That leaves me with Sucker Sunday to finally get started.
So a quick presentation of short appetizers before we get to the main courses of the Brunch from some of the best sports writers in the United States of America. Cool.
• Have you had enough time to arrange your travel plans to Qatar? Yeah, me neither.
• Late Yankees boss George Steinbrenner didn't even come close in his first year of eligibility for baseball's Hall of Fame. Good Lord, was he on steroids, too?
• This from NBC's Jay Leno: "You see that snowstorm in Buffalo the other day? People were stuck in their cars for 12 hours. They couldn't move. You know what you call someone in Buffalo that can't move? A running back." Bada bing.
• The Hyundai Sun Bowl says it has a sellout, which is the quickest in the bowl game's history. The Dec. 31 game is between Miami and Notre Dame. Wow, who knew the Hurricanes were still that popular?
• Tweet from Brett Favre to Urban Meyer: "U r an amateur. LOL!"
• Perky Jerky has signed a deal to sponsor golfer David Duval. John Daly must be fuming.
• We can all sleep easy tonight. Lee Corso's mascot head is safe.
And now to bring in the heavyweight's for the main courses in this delicious Brunch:
• Florida AD Jeremy Foley wasted no time in replacing football coach Urban Meyer with Texas Defensive Coordinator Will Muschamp. Mike Bianchi of the Orlando Sentinel wonders if this hire will be closer to when Foley chose Billy Donovan to handle basketball or Ron Zook to replace Steve Spurrier as the old football coach. "Foley's Folly II?"
• The Miami Hurricanes are still looking for a new football coach. Greg Cote of the Miami Herald has that covered along with a bunch of other cool stuff in his "Random Evidence of a Cluttered Blog." One tidbit that fascinates me are the current gambling favorites to win the next Super Bowl: "The Patriots favored at 9-2, Steelers and Falcons 13-2, Packers 17-2, and Saints and Eagles 9-1." And much more.
• Kansas City's Joe Ponanski says goodbye to Dandy Don Meredith and notes he gave us something that few others could provide -- appreciation of the joy of playing football.
• Sticking in Kansas City, Sam Mellinger of the Star tells Chiefs fans that having QB Brodie Croyle replace ailing Matt Cassel to face the San Diego Chargers is a classic case of being careful what you wish for.
• Numerous fans in Baltimore seem to be irate with Ravens Coach Jim Harbaugh, while Kevin Cowherd of the Sun respectfully tells those fans that they are nuts.
• Finally, we return to my blog for some predictions of the NFL games although I didn't foresee the roof collapsing on the stadium in Minneapolis. Slacker.
Now get out there and join me in some frantic shopping. Nothing says "love" more than a gift card, right?

Are there systematic differences between people who use social network sites and those who stay away, despite a familiarity with them? Based on data from a survey administered to a diverse group of young adults, this article looks at the predictors of SNS usage, with particular focus on Facebook, MySpace, Xanga, and Friendster. Findings suggest that use of such sites is not randomly distributed across a group of highly wired users. A person's gender, race and ethnicity, and parental educational background are all associated with use, but in most cases only when the aggregate concept of social network sites is disaggregated by service. Additionally, people with more experience and autonomy of use are more likely to be users of such sites. Unequal participation based on user background suggests that differential adoption of such services may be contributing to digital inequality.

Very Good theme and for a beginner this is very cool theme with easy customization
Thank you
For a WP beginner this is a very nice theme to get started with some parallex effects. You can customize it a lot and I like that it has an extra social menu. Overall it is a nice design and style.
I really like the versatility of Itek. My site looks clean and lively. When I had an issue, my problem was addressed quickly and thoroughly. I was treated professionally, even though my error started the problem.
Communication came quickly and my issue was solved in a very timely manner. Zulf went way above what I expected.
I am grateful.
Itek and Zulf Rock!

text: Cherokee Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player. One potential earnings short-squeeze trade in the apparel complex Cherokee ( CHKE), which is set to report results on Thursday after the market close. There are currently no analysts' estimates available for Cherokee. The current short interest as a percentage of the float for Cherokee is decent at 9%. That means that out of the 7.07 million shares in the tradable float, 683,540 shares are sold short by the bears. The bears have also been increasing their bets from the last reporting period by 11.3%, or by about 121,000 shares. From a technical perspective, CHKE is currently trading above both its 50-day and 200-day moving averages, which is bullish. This stock hit a recent low in late January at $9.97, and since then has run-up towards its current price of just over $12.50 a share. That move has now pushed CHKE within range of triggering a breakout trade post-earnings if the company can deliver what the bulls are looking for. >>5 Technical Trades From Your Twitter Feed If you're bullish on CHKE, I would wait until after they report and look for long biased trades if the stock breaks out above some overhead resistance at $12.94 to $13.07 a share with high-volume. Look for volume on that move that's near or above its three-month average volume of 48,737 shares. If we get that action, then look for CHKE to make a run at $14 to $16 a share. I would simply avoid CHKE or look for short biased trades if after earnings that breakout never triggers, and the stock drops back below its 200-day at $12.59 a share with heavy volume. If we get that move, look for CHKE to drop back towards its 50-day moving average of $11.28 or possibly lower if the bears spark a notable selloff post-earnings. Prev 2 of 6 Next

Optimization of Error Detection and Concealment for ISO/MPEG/AUDIO CODECs Layer I and II
The international body ISO is presently in the phase of standardizing low bit-rate coding of video and audio, drafted as ISO CD 11172 by the ISO/MPEG (Motion Picture Experts Group). As far as audio is concerned, a three-layer concept has been developed following the strategy of increasing complexity, delay, and decreasing bit-rate at the same audio performance. This is to make the standard fit various applications with a wide range of different requirements. The need for error concealment occurs particularly in applications where errors might be expected, such as terrestrial and satellite broadcasting, and cable networks, but also in tape recording. Within this paper, error concealment techniques will be proposed in connection with the ISO LAYERSs I and II, which are already in use and where ICs have been announced as available (in June, 1992). Two directions are presently considered: error concealment techniques with full compatibility to the Committee Draft, and those requiring modifications of the bitstream. The compatible techniques might be seen as a compromise to be soon applicable to the widely distributed coding standard and the others as more general proposals in connection with audio bit-rate reduction systems based on sub-band or transform coding.

Mariners make stand in 21-7 triumph over Whitnall
St. Francis grid team hikes record to 3-2
The St. Francis defense was in shutdown mode.
The Mariners barely let Whitnall's offense reach three figures in yardage in their 21-7 Woodland Conference victory Sept. 21 at St. Francis.
"The defense was pretty good," Sarver said. "I thought our defensive effort against Greendale was good except for a few plays. We were able to keep away from giving up the big play this week."
The Mariners (3-2 overall, 3-1 in the Woodland South) held Whitnall (2-3, 2-2) to 17 rushing yards on 20 attempts. Whitnall had 96 yards passing. That comes out to a tidy 113 yards.
"We basically shut down the run," Sarver said. "It's kind of the same type of spread formation that Greendale runs."
Senior linebacker Mario Scianni led the defensive charge with eight tackles, including one for a loss. Senior safety Jamin Chilson also had a tackle for loss, senior lineman Mike Paquette contributed a sack, and junior defensive back Tyler Bostedt had an interception that led to the Mariners' second touchdown.
"It's like we were a step slow in terms of processing everything," Whitnall coach Rob Leboeuf said. "Kinesthetically, we were a step slow."
When the Mariners had the ball, they were pretty efficient. Junior quarterback Cory Knapp threw a pair of touchdown passes and was 12-for-21 for 131 yards. They pounded out 181 yards on the ground, with sophomore fullback Evan Biller contributing 77 on 17 carries and senior halfback Thomas Fera adding 69 on 13 carries.
"The good thing about the game was we didn't put the ball on the ground as we have been," Sarver said.
On the other hand …
"The bad thing was, the penalty bug, which we haven't had all year long, kind of hurt us," Sarver said, referring to his team's 10 penalties for 80 yards.
Knapp's 5-yard touchdown pass to Fera and Biller's 1-yard scoring run, which both came in the second quarter, gave the Mariners a 14-0 lead entering the break. After Whitnall closed to 14-7 in the third quarter, Sarver had a big decision to make when his team had a fourth-and-4 at the Whitnall 36.
"We were on the 36, and our defense was playing well," Sarver said.
The Mariners went for it, Fera found a seam in the defense, Knapp got him the ball, and the Mariners were in control again.
"We needed this win because it keeps us on track in the playoff scenario, and gives us a boost going into the Cudahy game," Sarver said.
St. Francis will visit Cudahy at 7 p.m. Friday, Sept. 28.

March 18 (Bloomberg) -- Outdoor Channel Holdings Inc., the hunting and fishing cable-TV network that agreed to be bought by Kroenke Sports & Entertainment LLC for about $227 million, is being sued by an investor who claims the offer is too low.
Outdoor earlier accepted an $8-a-share offer in cash or stock from InterMedia Outdoors Holdings LLC, then rejected the offer in favor of Kroenke's all-cash $8.75-a-share bid, costing the company a $6.5 million breakup fee, the Outdoor stockholder, Roberta Feinstein, said in a Delaware Chancery Court complaint filed today in Wilmington.
The price increase "could have been significantly higher had the board not hastily agreed to the inadequate offer by InterMedia," and Temecula, California-based Outdoor should be auctioned, Feinstein said in court papers.
Closely held Kroenke, based in Denver, owns and operates the Denver Nuggets of the National Basketball Association and the Colorado Avalanche of the National Hockey League.
Outdoor runs shows on shooting, country music, off-road motor sports, gold-prospecting, horseracing, rodeos, softball and soccer, as well as hunting and fishing.
Joe LoBello, a spokesman for Outdoor, didn't immediately return voice and e-mail messages seeking comment on the lawsuit.
The case is Feinstein v. Outdoor Channel Holdings Inc., CA8412, Delaware Chancery Court (Wilmington).

quite right, more problems are when the actual apk can only be obtained directly from the browser in android.
Who are you Tina? The post reply police. Several questions now you keep saying post a new question.... post a new question, yet you lack to answer a question. Go away.
Hey Neil,
Tina is here to help you. We advice posting a problem as a new question so that it received more visibility by appearing on
MakeUseOf Answers home page. That's a logcial thing to suggest when we don't have an answers to a problem.
The same problem for me too.... have connected mobile to my laptop as storage device, then have downloaded apps from market.android, and my account in android market shows download complete but no change in my mobile... only when i connect to gprs the download starts in my mobile, i want to download without gprs in my mobile, how to do that?
if you are still seeking for a solution, I recommend you to ask a new question. It will be posted on the MakeUseOf Answers front page and will receive a response within a few hours.
I am having the same problem Nshivapriyaa.. Any solution.?
Can I possibly make a wifi connection threw mu phone if so
if i download a paid app for free on my pc and email it to my phone, will i get charged?
what kind of app is that? Does it cause service charges?
To increase your chances for an answer, you should post a new question: http://www.makeuseof.com/answers
you know how there are apps that charges you? well i know there are websites that you can download the app on your computer. So since you can download from a website, i was asking if i could download an app from my computer and email it to my phone. I have downloaded a few apps (that would normally charge you if you bought them at the droid market) on my computer and sent them to my email on my phone and installed them. They work fine but i dont know if i was still charged for them and i really wanna know if i was charged or not.
As I said above, please ask a new question. I don't know the answer!
Or how about checking your bill. Shouldn't you be able to find out if you were charged?

Amor Mundi 4/26/15
Hannah Arendt considered calling her magnum opus Amor Mundi: Love of the World. Instead, she settled upon The Human Condition. What is most difficult, Arendt writes, is to love the world as it is, with all the evil and suffering in it. And yet she came to do just that. Loving the world means neither uncritical acceptance nor contemptuous rejection. Above all it means the unwavering facing up to and comprehension of that which is.
Every Sunday, The Hannah Arendt Center Amor Mundi Weekly Newsletter will offer our favorite essays and blog posts from around the web. These essays will help you comprehend the world. And learn to love it.
John Gray, writing in The Guardian, takes on Steven Pinker's argument that progress and the Enlightenment are bringing about the decline and extinction of violence. "It may be true that the modern state's monopoly of force has led, in some contexts, to declining rates of violent death. But it is also true that the power of the modern state has been used for purposes of mass killing, and one should not pass too quickly over victims of state terror. With increasing historical knowledge it has become clear that the 'Holocaust-by-bullets'--the mass shootings of Jews, mostly in the Soviet Union, during the second world war--was perpetrated on an even larger scale than previously realised. Soviet agricultural collectivisation incurred millions of foreseeable deaths, mainly as a result of starvation, with deportation to uninhabitable regions, life-threatening conditions in the Gulag and military-style operations against recalcitrant villages also playing an important role. Peacetime deaths due to internal repression under the Mao regime have been estimated to be around 70 million. Along with fatalities caused by state terror were unnumbered millions whose lives were irreparably broken and shortened. How these casualties fit into the scheme of declining violence is unclear. Pinker goes so far as to suggest that the 20th-century Hemoclysm might have been a gigantic statistical fluke, and cautions that any history of the last century that represents it as having been especially violent may be 'apt to exaggerate the narrative coherence of this history' (the italics are Pinker's). However, there is an equal or greater risk in abandoning a coherent and truthful narrative of the violence of the last century for the sake of a spurious quantitative precision."
How About Improving High Schools?
David Leonhardt takes on the conventional wisdom that college is not for everyone. (Although I thought the conventional wisdom is that college is for everyone.) In his Upshot column in the NY Times, Leonhardt argues that new studies show that college benefits even the most marginal students. "The fate of students like Mr. Escanilla is crucial to today's debate over who should go to college: How much money should taxpayers spend subsidizing higher education? How willing should students be to take on college debt? How hard should Washington and state governments push colleges to lift their graduation rates? All of these questions depend on whether a large number of at-risk students are really capable of completing a four-year degree. As it happens, two separate--and ambitious--recent academic studies have looked at precisely this issue. The economists and education researchers tracked thousands of people over the last two decades in Florida, Georgia and elsewhere who had fallen on either side of hard admissions cutoffs. Less selective colleges often set such benchmarks: Students who score 840 on the SAT, for example, or maintain a C+ average in high school are admitted. Those who don't clear the bar are generally rejected, and many don't attend any four-year college. Such stark cutoffs provide researchers with a kind of natural experiment. Students who score an 830 on the SAT are nearly identical to those who score an 840. Yet if one group goes to college and the other doesn't, researchers can make meaningful estimates of the true effects of college. And the two studies have come to remarkably similar conclusions: Enrolling in a four-year college brings large benefits to marginal students. Roughly half of the students in Georgia who had cleared the bar went on to earn a bachelor's degree within six years, compared with only 17 percent of those who missed the cutoff, according to one of the studies, by Joshua S. Goodman of Harvard and Michael Hurwitz and Jonathan Smith of the College Board. The benefits were concentrated among lower-income students, both studies found, and among men, one of them found." What is unasked in Leonhardt's argument is, "What about high school?" It is not controversial that sending someone to college will help people. But does it make sense for us to continue offering free high school educations that are horrific and then charge people for better college educations? Wouldn't the money and effort spent on community colleges and financial aid for lower tier colleges be better spent reforming high school education in a meaningful way? It seems most people simply have given up on high school, which is why college becomes an expensive and next-best alternative.
Your Smart Things, They're Spying On You
Justin McGuirk says the smart house is here and that it's here less to make your life convenient and more to gather data about what you do at home: "For the first time since the mid-twentieth century--with its labor-saving household appliances and rising quality of life--the domestic is once again the site of radical change. And though domestic space appears to fall within the realm of architecture, architects themselves have been almost mute on the implications of such change. Architecture, it seems, has given up its dreams of imagining how we might live, and so into that void technology is rushing. That tired old trope of 'the house of the future' has been replaced by what is now called the 'smart home.' The smart home is the network's great white hope for ubiquitous connectivity. It sounds benign enough, and may conjure Jacques Tati-style mise-en-scènes populated by absurd devices--the smart home is prime territory for farce--but it is also an ideology. It is the house-shaped manifestation of the internet of things, according to which all our devices and appliances will join the network, communicating with us and each other. To say that the internet of things is an ideology is to suggest that the use-value of the concept has yet to be sold to the consumer. It is easily mocked by skeptical hacks who question the need for talking fridges and washing machines that you can program with your smartphone ('You still need to put the clothes in yourself, right?'). Bruce Sterling argues that the internet of things has nothing to do with the consumer and everything to do with the business interests of the service providers. Given that data is the new currency, the internet of things is an epic power grab by the lords of the network--Sterling focuses on the 'big five' of Google, Amazon, Facebook, Apple, and Microsoft--to gain control of as much human data as physically possible. As the primary interface of the internet of things, the smart home is effectively the tendrils of the network rising out of the ground and into every one of our household appliances to allow mass data collection and digital surveillance." And while it used to be that you could strategically opt out of this data gathering, McGuirk suggests that the smart home will just render you redundant. Home, then, is no longer any retreat from the public space.
Mindfulness and Social Control
Virginia Heffernan is wary of the way "mindfulness," an idea brought into Western thought from various Eastern religions, has been taken up by businesses and 21st century self-help gurus: "Mindfulness as 'keeping in tune' has a nice ring to it. But it's 'focused on the task at hand' that appeals to managers, like Jackson, who are conscious of performance goals. Might workplace mindfulness--in the cubicle or on the court--be just another way to keep employees undistracted and to get them to work harder for nothing but airy rewards? In this context of performance enhancement, 'mindfulness' seems perilously close to doggerel from the same playbook that brought us corny affirmations, inner children and vision boards. Maybe the word 'mindfulness' is like the Prius emblem, a badge of enlightened and self-satisfied consumerism, and of success and achievement. If so, not deploying mindfulness--taking pills or naps for anxiety, say, or going out to church or cocktails--makes you look sort of backward or classless. Like driving a Hummer."
Françoise Mouly, in an interview, talks about the relationship between thought and emotion in art: "Often, we separate intellectual discourse from emotional reaction. But I take such genuine pleasure in things that are intellectually well architected. It's definitely an integrated experience for me. Much more than any kind of cheap, emotional pulls that you get in popular culture, when I read a sentence and it's beautifully written, it can bring me to tears. I know what I respond to is a voice. A voice is not just a stylistic thing, but it means someone who really has something to say. I think a lot of what I get from books--whether they be books of comics or books of literature--is a window into somebody's mind and their way of thinking. I love it when it's so specific. It's a new way to look at the world. It's as if I could get in and see it through their eyes. It also reaches a level of universality because, somehow, I can recognize some of my feelings in seeing somebody who is actually expressing their own inner reality. Even though Flaubert has not been in Madame Bovary's skin, you do get a sense of what it's like to be that person. It's a kind of empathic response when you're reading it."
In a piece on the New Yorker writer Joseph Mitchell, Janet Malcom, starting with facts from a new biography of Mitchell, tries to work out whether it matters that his tendency to exaggerate or flat-out invent in his profiles for the magazine, more prevalent than previously believed, matters. Ultimately, she says, it doesn't. But only because he was good at it: "Every writer of nonfiction who has struggled with the ditch and the bushes knows what Mitchell is talking about, but few of us have gone as far as Mitchell in bending actuality to our artistic will. This is not because we are more virtuous than Mitchell. It is because we are less gifted than Mitchell. The idea that reporters are constantly resisting the temptation to invent is a laughable one. Reporters don't invent because they don't know how to. This is why they are journalists rather than novelists or short-story writers. They depend on the kindness of the strangers they actually meet for the characters in their stories. There are no fictional characters lurking in their imaginations. They couldn't create a character like Mr. Flood or Cockeye Johnny if you held a gun to their heads. Mitchell's travels across the line that separates fiction and nonfiction are his singular feat. His impatience with the annoying, boring bits of actuality, his slashings through the underbrush of unreadable facticity, give his pieces their electric force, are why they're so much more exciting to read than the work of other nonfiction writers of ambition. In the title piece of The Bottom of the Harbor, a short work of great subtlety about the ability of fish and shellfish to survive in polluted water, Mitchell mentions a small area of the New York waterfront where, in contrast to the general foulness, 'clean, sparkling, steel-blue water' can be found. This image of purity in the midst of contamination could serve as an emblem of Mitchell's journalistic exceptionalism. He has filtered out the impurities other journalists helplessly accept as the defining condition of their genre. Mitchell's genre is some kind of hybrid, as yet to be named."
What We Talk About When We Talk About Dresses
Megan Garber wonders what might have caused the backlash against some designer dresses that went on sale at Target this week, coming up with an answer that suggests, as always, that when we're talking about clothes, we're not just talking about clothes: "A common phrase you'll hear associated with Pulitzer is 'uniform'--as in, as Givhan put it, 'part of a preppy uniform that announces itself from fifty paces,' or, as the Boston Globe put it, 'a uniform of the well-heeled WASP.' Which is ironic, of course: Uniforms are about the constriction of freedoms, and preppiness and WASPiness are, in general, about the freedom that comes with privilege. And clothing, furthermore-'fashion,' in haughtier moments--is most optimistically about the freedoms of self-expression and self-reinvention. It recognizes very little distinction between faking it and making it. If you have the money and the inclination, you can stock your closet--and swath your body--with Alice + Olivia and Thakoon and Marc Jacobs and Marchesa, or with very convincing knockoffs. You can balance them out, as the fashion magazines have taught you to do, with items from H&M and Zara and Forever 21. We live in an economy of sartorial abundance; one outcome of that is that 'style' is something we have come to associate with freedom. But Pulitzer's clothes are, again, 'uniforms'--which are, on the whole, designed to free their wearers from the burdens of free thinking. And this is perhaps the main source of the ire about Pulitzer's clothes: The garments suggest a kind of willful conscription, celebrating what happens when wealth and status are accompanied by an insistent rejection of creativity. It was, and to some extent still is, popular to deride women for being 'basic,' which is to say for loving pumpkin-spice lattes, Ugg boots, Gucci handbags, and other predictable outcomes of commercialized femininity. 'Basic' is a terrible epithet in many ways, but it is also, as far as 'Lillys' are concerned, an instructive one: Pulitzer's clothes are, in this sense, the worst kind of basic. They promise class and community and the relief of conformity. They are marketed to people of privilege. Worst of all, though, they suggest that the best thing one can do with one's privilege is to use it to go on vacation."

Looking Beyond A Digital Harvard
Graduation is upon us. Saturday I will be in full academic regalia mixing with the motley colors of my colleagues as we send forth yet another class of graduates onto the rest of their lives. I advised three senior projects this year. One student is headed to East Jerusalem, where she will be a fellow at the Bard Honors College at Al Quds University. Another is staying at Bard where he will co-direct Bard's new Center for the Study of the Drone. The third is returning to the United Kingdom where he will be the fourth person in a new technology driven public relations start up. A former student just completed Bard's Masters in Teaching and will begin a career as a high school teacher. Another recent grad is returning from Pakistan to New York where she will earn a Masters in interactive technology at the Tisch School for the Arts at NYU. These are just a few of the extraordinary opportunities that young graduates are finding or making for themselves.
The absolute best part of being a college professor is the immersion in optimism from being around exceptional young people. Students remind us that no matter how badly we screw things up, they keep on dreaming and working to reinvent the world as a better and more meaningful place. I sometimes wonder how people who don't have children or don't teach can possibly keep their sanity. I count my lucky stars to be able to live and work around such amazing students.
I write this at a time, however, in which the future of physical colleges where students and professors congregate in small classrooms to read and think together is at a crossroads. In The New Yorker, Nathan Heller has perhaps the most illuminating essay on MOOC's yet to be written. His focus is on Harvard University, which brings a different perspective than most such articles. Heller asks how MOOCs will change not only our wholesale educational delivery at state and community colleges across the country, but also how the rush to transfer physical courses into online courses will transform elite education as well. He writes: "Elite educators used to be obsessed with "faculty-to-student-ratio"; now schools like Harvard aim to be broadcast networks."
By focusing on Harvard, Heller shifts the traditional discourse surrounding MOOCs, one that usually concentrates on economics. When San Jose State or the California State University system adopts MOOCs, the rationale is typically said to be savings for an overburdened state budget. While many studies show that students actually do better in electronic online courses than they do in physical lectures, a combination of cynicism and hope leads professors to be suspicious of such claims. The replacement of faculty by machines is thought to be a coldly economic calculation.
But at Harvard, which is wealthier than most oil sheikdoms, the warp speed push into online education is not simply driven by money (although there is a desire to corner a market in the future). For many of the professors Heller interviews in his essay, the attraction of MOOCs is that they will actually improve the elite educational experience.
Take for example Gregory Nagy, professor of classics, and one of the most popular professors at Harvard. Nagy is one of Harvard's elite professors flinging himself headlong into the world of online education. He is dividing his usual hour-long lectures into short videos of about 6 minutes each—people get distracted watching lectures on their Iphones at home or on the bus. He imagines "each segment as a short film" and says that, "crumbling up the course like this forced him to study his own teaching more than he had at the lectern." For Nagy, the online experience is actually forcing him to be more clear; it allows for spot-checking the participants comprehension of the lecture through repeated multiple-choice quizzes that must be passed before students can continue on to the next lecture. Dividing the course into digestible bits that can be swallowed whole in small meals throughout the day is, Nagy argues, not cynical, but progress. "Our ambition is actually to make the Harvard experience now closer to the MOOC experience."
It is worth noting that the Harvard experience of Nagy's real-world class is not actually very personal or physical. Nagy's class is called "Concepts of the Hero in Classical Greek Civilization." Students call it "Heroes for Zeroes" because it has a "soft grading curve" and it typically attracts hundreds of students. When you strip away Nagy's undeniable brilliance, his physical course is a massive lecture course constrained only by the size of the Harvard's physical plant. For those of us who have been on both sides of the lectern, we know such lectures can be entertaining and informative. But we also know that students are anonymous, often sleepy, rarely prepared, and none too engaged with their professors. Not much learning goes on in such lectures that can't be simply replicated on a TV screen. And in this context, Nagy is correct. When one compares a large lecture course with a well-designed online course, it may very well be that the online course is a superior educational venture—even at Harvard.
As I have written here before, the value of MOOCs is to finally put the college lecture course out of its misery. There is no reason to be nostalgic for the lecture course. It was never a very good idea. Aside from a few exceptional lecturers—in my world I can think of the reputations of Hegel, his student Eduard Gans, Martin Heidegger, and, of course, Hannah Arendt—college lectures are largely an economical way to allow masses of students to acquire basic introductory knowledge in a field. If the masses are now more massive and the lectures more accessible, I'll accept that as progress.
The real problems MOOCs pose is not that they threaten to replace lecture courses, but that they intensify our already considerable confusion regarding what education is. Elite educational institutions, as Heller writes, no longer compete against themselves. He talks with Gary King, University Professor of Quantitative Social Science and Drew Gilpin Faust, Harvard's President, who see Harvard's biggest threat not to be Yale or Amherst but "The University of Phoenix," the for-profit university. The future of online education, King argues, will be driven by understanding education as a "data-gathering resource." Here is his argument:
Traditionally, it has been hard to assess and compare how well different teaching approaches work. King explained that this could change online through "large-scale measurement and analysis," often known as big data. He said, "We could do this at Harvard. We could not only innovate in our own classes—which is what we are doing—but we could instrument every student, every classroom, every administrative office, every house, every recreational activity, every security officer, everything. We could basically get the information about everything that goes on here, and we could use it for the students. A giant, detailed data pool of all activities on the campus of a school like Harvard, he said, might help students resolve a lot of ambiguities in college life.
At stake in the battle over MOOCs is not merely a few faculty jobs. It is a question of how we educate our young people. Will they be, as they increasingly are, seen as bits of data to be analyzed, explained, and guided by algorithmic regularities, or are they human beings learning to be at home in a world of ambiguity.
Most of the opposition to MOOCs continues to be economically tinged. But the real danger MOOCs pose is their threat to human dignity. Just imagine that after journalists and professors and teachers, the next industry to be replaced by machines is babysitters. The advantages are obvious. Robotic babysitters are more reliable than 18 year olds, less prone to be distracted by text messages or twitter. They won't be exhausted and will have access to the highest quality first aid databases. Of course they will eventually also be much cheaper. But do we want our children raised by machines?
That Harvard is so committed to a digital future is a sign of things to come. The behemoths of elite universities have their sights set on educating the masses and then importing that technology back into the ivy quadrangles to study their own students and create the perfectly digitized educational curriculum.
And yet it is unlikely that Harvard will ever abandon personalized education. Professors like Peter J. Burgard, who teaches German at Harvard, will remain, at least for the near future.
Burgard insists that teaching requires "sitting in a classroom with students, and preferably with few enough students that you can have real interaction, and really digging into and exploring a knotty topic—a difficult image, a fascinating text, whatever. That's what's exciting. There's a chemistry to it that simply cannot be replicated online."
Burgard is right. And at Harvard, with its endowment, professors will continue to teach intimate and passionate seminars. Such personalized and intense education is what small liberal arts colleges such as Bard offer, without the lectures and with a fraction of the administrative overhead that weighs down larger universities. But at less privileged universities around the land, courses like Burgard's will likely become ever more rare. Students who want such an experience will look elsewhere. And here I return to my optimism around graduation.
Dale Stephens of Uncollege is experimenting with educational alternatives to college that foster learning and thinking in small groups outside the college environment. In Pittsburgh, the Saxifrage School and the Brooklyn Institute of Social Science are offering college courses at a fraction of the usual cost, betting that students will happily use public libraries and local gyms in return for a cheaper and still inspiring educational experience. I tell my students who want to go to graduate school that the teaching jobs of the future may not be at universities and likely won't involve tenure. I don't know where the students of tomorrow will go to learn and to think, but I know that they will go somewhere. And I am sure some of my students will be teaching them. And that gives me hope.
As graduates around the country spring forth, take the time to read Nathan Heller's essay, Laptop U. It is your weekend read.

The Merging of High Schools and Colleges
The Wall St. Journal reports that more high school students are taking college courses for credit.
The number of students under age 18 enrolled in community-college courses rose more than 50% in the past 10 years, to about 855,000 for the 2011-2012 academic year, according to the American Association of Community Colleges. The group says most of them are in dual-enrollment programs.
This is a great boon for the students, who get better teachers, more intensive classes, and the experience of college. Not only that. By getting college credits for free while attending high school, these students cut down on the time they will have to spend in college, and thus the cost of college.
As good a deal as taking college courses in high school is, it also is an indictment of our high schools. Once again, instead of actually spending the money and effort to make high schools worthwhile, we are creaming off the best of the students in high school and sending them to courses in colleges, leaving their lower-performing peers to suffer through poor classes without even the benefit of their more ambitious peers. This is, of course, better than the status quo.
One unintended consequence of the migration of high school students to college courses is waste. Because the state pays for these community college courses and counts the high school students in the formula increasing public support for the colleges, taxpayers are double paying, paying both for the high schools and for the community colleges, which are educating an overlapping population. At a time of high desperation in government funding, providing dual systems for educating the same students is poor planning.
There are two obvious answers. Either re-tool high schools to make them more ambitious and better or allow students to simply skip high school and attend community colleges for free in place of high school. Much of what goes by the name of education in high school is a sad waste. We should either radically improve it or simply eliminate it. One idea between these two is the early college model, pioneered by Bard High School Early College, which gives all students 2 years of college credits during the four years that they are in publicly financed high schools. The early-college model has much to recommend it and it is certainly a better solution than sending high school students to attend classes at community colleges. The fact that high school students are looking to take courses outside of their high schools should spur efforts, in many directions, to change those schools. Or maybe we should follow the kids and gradually replace the last two years of high school with publicly funded college?

As digital photography has rapidly increased in popularity in recent years, so have advanced photographic techniques such as High Dynamic Range Imaging, commonly known as HDR. Digital cameras are limited in the range of light intensity they can handle in a given scene. Situations with both very bright and dark areas will exceed the dynamic range capability of the camera sensor. This requires the photographer to decide whether to expose for the dark areas and blow out the light areas, or to expose for the light areas and lose detail in the dark sections of the image. In short, they have to make a compromise and choose to preserve detail in some areas of the photo, and allow it to be lost in other areas. HDR seeks to overcome this issue by allowing for a wide dynamic range within one photograph.

About Ian Scott-Parker
After training as a cartographic surveyor and then draughtsman, Ian worked in the haulage and manufacturing sectors before retraining to operate a short-run digital-color print studio. He spent the larger part of the last century of the previous millennium in the UK and the larger part of the present millennium in the USA, but claims to look younger than that makes him sound. Now retired, he lives as an Internet recluse with his wife Beth, whom he met through MyMac, and four unruly rescue dogs, Tika, Sammy, Gracie, and Truffie.
Photoshop CS5 Extended
Company: Adobe
Price: $999 upgrade $349 (education pricing also available)
Last June I presented my first look at Photoshop CS5, and I was very impressed with the new features. Back then I felt it was definitely worth the upgrade. After many more weeks of using the software it is time to reevaluate and see if my opinion is the same or has changed.
For part one of the review I am going to cover Content Aware Fill and Puppet Warp.

Adobe continues to improve its entire CS suite of products with CS5, and I had the chance to have a quick first look of Dreamweaver CS5's new features. This is not a simple product, and it was already packed with features. And now there is even more, with a few older features tossed out if they were replaced with even better ones. I will give a brief overview and comments on the new features here.
Upon launching, I have to say, the user interface has not changed drastically from my previous version,
