Hi WP mates,
I searched in Google but I haven't find any interesting information.
I'd like to create a catalog of product, with subsections, i.e.:
accessories > handbags > cuir
accessories > handbags > plastic
accessories > backpacks > street
accessories > backpacks > mountain
I think that WP should have some themes and/or plugins to do so.
Did someone create a catalog with WP? Or have I to choose other CMS?
Thanks a lot!

Here are brief statements from our faculty about their current research. You also can find out their research interests from Math Review
I am interested in the qualitative behavior of solutions to non-linear partial differential equations, more particularly in establishing the existence of singular solutions and providing a precise description of the singularities.
My main interest is in parabolic and elliptic equations with secondary interest in hyperbolic equations. Recently I have been focusing on mathematical problems arising from fluid mechanics.
Selected Publications:
I am a mathematical biologist focusing on cryobiology, the study of life at low temperatures. Cryobiology presents a natural setting for mathematical problems involving heat and mass transfer in biological systems, often coupled to external environments. My contributions involve parameter identification, model formulation, and optimization of these models.
My current research is on the analytic and numeric optimal control of the heat and mass transfer problems intrinsic to cryobiology. I am also involved with the construction of thermodynamically accurate (and thus nonlinear) models of the interaction between cells and tissues and highly non-ideal envirionments. These problems couple classic free-boundary problems from phase field theory with solution theory along with considerations generated by cell-media interactions.
My area has proceeded from the representation theory of finite groups to a more general field of algebraic combinatorics focused on algebras with a distinguished basis. These algebras are variously called hypergroups, character algebras, and table algebras, among other names. Applications range from geometric symmetry via group algebras to combinatorial symmetry via adjacency algebras of association schemes to symmetries of quantum physics via the fusion rings that underlie fusion categories. Some specific projects of mine have examined (1) the generalization of Sylow theory from finite groups to table algebras; (2) the classification of integral table algebras and association schemes that are generated by a basis element of small degree; (3) classification of integral table algebras from data on representation-theoretic invariants such as multiplicities; (4) decomposition of products in nilpotent table algebras, generalizing results for conjugacy classes and irreducible characters of nilpotent groups.
My specialty is computational number theory. Although I have stayed away (somewhat) from the well-worn path of primarily testing and factorization, I have used the computer to investigate several interesting combinatorial and number theoretic problems.
Over the last ten years I have worked with John Brillhart, from the University of Arizona and Irving Gerst, from S.U.N.Y. at Stony Brook (Prof. Gerst passed away in 1996) on infinite product identities, especially those involving the Jacobi triple product functions. These functions have very nice product and series representations. Although no one knows an easy way to tell the parity of the partition function, we have found two infinite classes of restricted partitions whose parity can be immediately determined. The three of us were funded by the N.S.F. for two years to study these functions via computer. Recently we have discovered combinatorial mappings we hope will lead to symbolic computer proofs and ultimately a classification of these interesting identities.
A few years ago Paul Erdos introduced the concept of d-completeness. A sequence of positive integers u1, u2, ... is said to be d-complete if every sufficiently large integer n can be represented as a sum of the ui with the condition that no summand divides another. The sequence {2a3b} is d-complete and it is the only such sequence of that form. Recently J. L. Selfridge and I settled one of Erdos' last conjectures concerning the growth of the smallest term needed in these representations. Selfridge and I were working on a joint project with Erdos involving cluster primes. These are prime numbers p with the property that every even number less than p-3 can be written as a difference of primes no larger than p itself. Computationally, the cluster primes appear to have the same density as the twin primes.
My research centers around using combinatorics and analysis for attacking problems in special functions and, in particular, number theory.
The topics which interest me most are continued fractions, multiple polylogarithms (and their special values), q-series, and orthogonal polynomials. I am also interested in some aspects of diophantine approximation.
My research is interdisciplinary in nature, blending theoretical and applied and computational linear algebra with application areas such as control and systems theory.
The control theory is a major source of beautiful linear algebra problems. The design and analysis of linear control systems give rise to well-known linear algebra problems such as Eigenvalue and Eigen-Structure Assignment Problems, Frequency Response Problems, Controllability and Observability Problems, Matrix Equations Problems, Stability and Inertia Problems, etc. The development of numerically effective algorithms for these problems, especially algorithms for Large Problems and those suitable for implementation on existing vector and parallel machines are of utmost importance. Numerical algorithms for control problems are still in their infancy. The control theory is lagging behind in this respect compared to other areas of applied sciences and engineering. Yet, there are control problems which are so large that they can be termed as ``Super Computer Problems''. An outstanding example is that of Large Space Structures (LSS).
My current research centers around understanding and analysis of the existing algorithms and developing new numerically viable algorithms, both sequential and parallel, for linear algebra problems in control. A particular attention is being given to the development of algorithms for large-scale solutions of problems arising especially from second order differential equations associated with large space structure problems. In the design of parallel algorithms for control problems, we make use of the existing sophisticated parallel algorithms for matrix computations and the associated software libraries presently being built both for distributed and shared-memory computers such as CRAY XMP and Hypercubes. My research addresses the urgent need clearly pointed out in the recent NSF panel report on ``FUTURE DIRECTIONS IN CONTROL THEORY.''
My research focuses on Mathematics teaching and learning at the undergraduate level. My previous studies investigated problem solving among calculus students and the development of defining and proving among advanced calculus (analysis) students.
I am particularly interested in the transition to advanced mathematical thinking, classroom communication, and the emergence of communal mathematical meaning.
My research interests are in optimization along with related areas of nonsmooth analysis. Currently I am working on
My main area of research is in Reliability and Life Testing. My recent interest is to model the lifetime of a system through several stochastic processes and use the model to estimate its reliability.
My research can broadly be described as complex analysis with two main areas of study, both of which feature centrally the notion of quasiconformal mappings:
- Quasiregular dynamics is a natural generalization of the iteration theory of holomorphic mappings in the plane to higher dimensions. This is a relatively new area of research which shows plenty of promise in being fertile for years to come.
- Teichmueller theory is a beautiful subject bringing together complex analysis, topology, geometry and more to describe deformation spaces of surfaces. This is a deep, challenging subject.
Further details on my research and contributions to these areas can be found on my publications page here
I study representations of finite groups and am particularly interested in relationships between rationality questions and some classical conjectures in block theory such as Brauer's height zero conjecture, Brauer's k(B) conjecture, and McKay's conjecture.
These conjectures are usually studied in the context of particular families of simple or quasisimple groups (usually of Lie type). My approach differs substantially in that I attempt to draw as much as possible from the theory of vertices and sources. The techniques come down to integral representations of p-groups.
I work in Abstract Harmonic Analysis. This involved the analysis of functions, measures, and related structures in the setting of locally compact groups. My work often involves substantial amounts of functional analysis, as well as topology.
My specific interests concern generalizing certain relatively well-known results from classical Fourier analysis to the setting of locally compact abelian groups.
BERNARD HARRIS (Professor) – Ph.D., University College, Cardiff. Differential Equations.
Ordinary differential equations and asymptotic analysis. In particular linear equations and questions relating to the spectral theory. I also work on questions involving the qualitative theory of ordinary differential equations.
My research interest is in complex matrices. Currently, I am working on the properties of nonsingular matrices under $\Phi$-maps, i.e., equivalences, canonical form, invariances, spectral structures, generalized singular or polar decomposition under a $\Phi$-map, and so on, Rank revealing QR factorization, and other problems in (numerical) matrix theory.
Recent Publications:
The focus of my mathematics education research has been on investigating students' mathematical learning with the intention of attempting to improve mathematical instruction. In specific, my research emphasis has been on understanding students' intellectual and constructive mathematical development. I have worked with students, in groups and individually, and I have observed and analyzed the reasoning strategies students apply in specific mathematical problem-solving situations, as well as the connections they form with their mathematical and othe domains of knowledge.
In my research, I have investigated the mathematical reasoning strategies which students use as they solve problems related to any of the following multiplicative-structured concepts: place-value, rational numbers and proportions, equation-solving, functions, probability, correlations, and conditional logic. I have worked with students of various ages: elementary school students, secondary school students, and college level students including preservice school teachers. In my research, I have applied both quantitative and qualitative research methodologies depending upon the questions that were investigated. Currently, along with the identification and analyses of students' developmental reasoning and problem-solving strategies, I am also investigating students' structures of conceptual units and their flexibility of reasoning during problem solving.
My research interests are mainly in the qualitative analysis of differential equations and its applications which include:
My research interests cover a wide range that includes spectral theory of linear operators and linear relations as well as abstract and applied harmonic analysis. I am investigating problems in frame theory, wavelet and time-frequency analysis, sampling theory, causal pseudo-differential operators, etc. A usually up-to-date list of my publications and preprints is available on my home page.
My research is in the area of continuous and combinatorial optimization with a focus on:
- convex analysis; semidefinite optimization; semidefinite relaxations of hard combinatorial problems;
- sparse and low-rank optimization, matrix completion, and matrix approximation (least-squares) problems;
- Euclidean distance matrices and applications:
- wireless sensor network localization;
- protein structure determination;
- numerical optimization and linear algebra; large-scale computation.
My field of research is in Non-linear Partial Differential Equations. It can be mainly divided into 2 parts:
My current research interests are related to problems regarding periodic extremals. Many lasting non-chaotic physical phenomena can be viewed as extremals of this kind. By the use of essentially infinite dimensional methods it is possible to represent all periodic functions as a nonflat subset of the space of all functions. The extremals appear at points where the projected gradient vector field vanishes. In order to find these elusive extremals one attempts to follow the trajectories of the gradient vector field.
My methods have proven to be very useful when applied to so-called nonlinear splines in approximation theory. The techniques used involve differential geometry, global analysis, calculus of variations and optimal control. I also use Sobolev spaces, convexity, tensor analysis, numerical analysis, Mathematica, the C-language, computer graphics (real time and animated) and occasionally theories of physics. In the future some of this work will lead to computer implementations of new algorithms.
A good reference is my paper ``Curve straightening'' which appeared in ``Proceedings of Symposia in Pure Mathematics'' by the American Mathematical Society. This volume covers the AMS summer research institute in differential geometry at UCLA and it gives the state of the art as of 1990.
Applications of systems of differential equations (ordinary, reaction- diffusion or delay) to (bio)chemical reaction network models. Specifically we analyze the connection between the structure of a biochemical network and its biological properties, such as multistability and oscillations. Also, we study the influence of space diffusion or time delays on the capacity of a biochemical network for multistability or oscillations.

My research interests include tensor categories and Hopf algebras. I also study the structure of algebras, specifically their Hochschild cohomology and their associated deformations.
My research interests are in the general area of nonparametric Statistics. Specifically, my research focuses on the following areas:
Professor Shafer's current research in mathematics education is studying the impact of the Master of Science in Teaching specialization in Middle School Mathematics Education on teachers' knowledge of mathematics, teaching practices, and professional growth and the impact on their students' mathematics achievement and mathematical dispositions. This research is supported by the Mathematics and Science Partnership grant Excellence in the Middle: Enhancing Mathematics Pedagogy with Connections in Science and Engineering, funded by U.S. Department of Education, NCLB, Title II, Part B, through the Illinois State Board of Education. Professors Shafer and Khoury are co-directors of this grant, which is currently supporting 32 teachers from several high-needs Illinois school districts to complete graduate coursework toward the Master of Science in Teaching specialization in Middle School Mathematics Education. Professor Shafer co-authored a book with Thomas Romberg entitled The Impact of Reform Mathematics Instruction on Student Achievement: An Example of Standards-Based Curriculum Research, which was published in 2008. Her other publications have focused on teachers' pedagogical decisions and classroom assessment practices.
I am interested in the following areas of Functional analysis and Operator theory.
* Geometry of Banach spaces (Hereditarily Indecomposable Banach spaces; Operators with and without invariant subspaces; Daugavet equation);
* Positive operators in Banach lattices (Invariant subspace problem for positive operators; Compact-friendly operators).
Present activity:
My research interests are in Diophantine equations, Diophantine approximation, arithmetic geometry, and the geometry of numbers. The study of Diophantine equations deals with finding integral or rational solutions to polynomial equations. This is closely related to Diophantine approximation, where one studies approximations to real numbers by rational numbers. Arithmetic geometry, broadly speaking, deals with arithmetic properties (i.e., properties concerning the integers) of geometric objects, usually affine or projective varieties. This is an area where number theory and algebraic geometry come together. The geometry of numbers deals with points with integer coordinates in regions of real n-space (under what condition will a region have such a point? how many? etc...), sphere packing, and related subjects.
I work mainly in algebraic number theory at a relatively elementary level, dealing with problems of classnumbers and units in algebraic number fields. I also make an occasional sideline into diphantine equations, that is, equations in which integer solutions are required. Some recent references are the following:
Motivated by P. Vojta's dictionary of number-theory-Nevanlinna-theory and related S. Lang's questions, my current research interests are finding analogies of Diophantine approximation in Nevanlinna theory of meromorphic mappings between two complex manifolds.

Upon diagnosing his laptop I called him to let him know what the problem with it was and gave him the cost for repairs. He had no problem with the cost and said just get it done.
Obviously he had no problems cause he had no intention of paying. The checking account he paid with was closed. Upon receiving the return check I left him voice mails trying to resolve the issue and did not hear back from him. Looking up his name and company (Baldwin Capital LLC) I came across numerous complaints about the man including his conviction records and a video of him on 11alive news for scamming other people. Check it out here http://www.11alive.com/rss/rss_story.aspx?storyid=135431
Well any way my county has a bad check citation program. By mailing a certified request for payment to the offender I can wait 10 days for a response and if I get none can get a warrant or citation. He has a warrant. Seems harsh but the guy is a repeat offender ripping off everyone he encounters. Complete & total loser.

D. B. Weiss
|D. B. Weiss
|Daniel Brett Weiss
April 23, 1971
Chicago, Illinois, U.S.
|Author, screenwriter, producer, director
|Andrea Troyer
Daniel Brett "D. B." Weiss (born April 23, 1971)[1] is an American author, screenwriter, producer, and director. Along with his collaborator David Benioff, he is best known as screenwriter, executive producer, and sometimes director of Game of Thrones, the HBO adaptation of George R. R. Martin's series of books A Song of Ice and Fire.
His 2003 debut novel, Lucky Wander Boy, is themed around video games.
Early life[edit]
Weiss was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois. His family is Jewish.[2] He is a graduate of Wesleyan University. He earned a Master of Philosophy in Irish literature from Trinity College, Dublin with a thesis on James Joyce's Finnegans Wake,[3] and a Master of Fine Arts in creative writing from the Iowa Writers' Workshop.[4]
Weiss worked as personal assistant on films such as The Viking Sagas for New Line Cinema. For a brief period, Weiss also worked as a personal assistant for Glenn Frey.[3] Weiss then went to Dublin in 1995 to study Anglo-Irish literature and met David Benioff, and three years later they met again in Santa Monica, California around 1998.[3]
Weiss and Benioff wrote a screenplay for a film titled The Headmaster together, but it was never made.[3] In 2003, Weiss and Benioff were hired to collaborate on a new script of Orson Scott Card's book Ender's Game in consultation with the then-designated director Wolfgang Petersen.[5][6] It was not used.[7]
In 2006, Weiss said he has a second novel finished that "needs a second draft".[8] That same year, Weiss completed a screenplay for a film adaptation of the video game series Halo, based on a script written by Alex Garland.[9][10] However, director Neill Blomkamp declared the project dead in late 2007.[11]
Weiss also worked on a script for a prequel to I Am Legend.[12] However, in May 2011, director Francis Lawrence stated that he did not think the prequel was ever going to happen.[13]
Weiss currently works with David Benioff, the writer of Troy, on the television series Game of Thrones, based on George R. R. Martin's book series A Song of Ice and Fire.[14]
Personal life[edit]
Weiss and his wife Andrea have two children, Leo and Hugo.[15]
- Lucky Wander Boy (2003)
- Game of Thrones (2011–) Creator
- It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, "Flowers for Charlie" (2013) Writer
- The Specials (2014) Executive Producer[16]
- Game of Thrones season 4, episode 1 "Two Swords" – Benioff and Weiss both directed a couple of episodes together, but used a coin-flip to decide who would get the credit on the show. Weiss received the credit for this episode while Benioff was credited for "Walk of Punishment" in season 3.[3]

I have a multisite with 8 different languages.
One of them is Estonian, which has the locale "et".
However, the country code for Estonia is actually "ee".
(The full locale for estonia is et_EE)
The correct language flag for estonian would be ee.png, but currently it is showing the Ethiopian flag et.png
I imagine there could be more cases like this for other countries/languages, so I guess the easiest solution would be to create some exceptions in the plugin code to handle these cases.
Another possible solution would be if there was a way to configure the flag code per site. So if I was looking at the configuration on the estonian site, there could be a field for language code and I could insert the language code manually.

I hope you have the chance to read this while on the run. You are a con artist and a snake. I had the unpleasant opportunity to have worked for Austin Shaw a couple of years ago at a company called Resort Quest in Collingwood at the same address as Vacations In Paradise.
It was all very veiled. No one would answer any questions. They wouldn't tell us what was really going on. We sat at a small cubicle with a phone and hundreds of ballots that people had submitted at local fairs, contests etc. We were just supposed to keep calling the phone numbers on the ballots and asking people if they could answer a survey. The main goal was to find out how much money they made and if they had a credit card. Then all of that information was compiled and sheets given out on who to call again offering them a reduced rate room at a hotel or condo in Collingwood. Of course the main goal was to get their credit card number.
During the shift Austin's cronies would walk loudly up and down the aisles behind us, yelling at us, "get their credit card number". Austin would kick his desk and yell abscenities at the workers to intimidate them. It was disgusting, but I, like everyone else, kept working because I needed the money.
One day I came to work to find that the shift I had chosen had been cancelled. Austin told us if we couldn't take a different shift, then too bad, you're done. He was supposed to send us our hourly wage and commission cheques in the mail. Surprise! That never happened. I called the office repeatedly asking for my money and eventually contacted the labour board. They said they couldn't do anything about it. I made it clear to Austin that I had contacted the labour board and he replied by calling me an a*****e. Of course I never got paid. Austin owes me $420.00.
I saw Austin shortly after that, sitting at a table with his crime-share cronies. When I walked by their table, I heard him telling his pals that he owed me money and that I wasn't going to get it. Then they all laughed.
Scum like Austin Shaw should never be able to own another business. He is a rude, crude, selfish piece without a concience. He even ripped off the people who worked for him. If you're reading this, Austin, I hope you get what you deserve.

The north face of Peverell's Gate in Dover's 12th Century Norman Castle.
Beyond the Gate, Hurst's Tower and Fulbert's Tower can be seen as the west outer curtain wall makes it's way to the cliff-edge (Gatton and Say's Tower are blocked from view). Beyond lies the English Channel.
Through the archway are the wooden rails lining the drawbridge.
Behind the viewer, the outer curtain wall continues first to Queen Mary's Tower (alt. Port Tower, Porth Tower) and then on to Constable's Tower.
The large roofed building on the left of the above photo is actually part of Peverell's Gate. On the far left, however, the smaller roofed building with the dormer-type window is part of the 'Sergeant-Major's House' which is now let out by English Heritage. In April, 2006, The Times wrote:
The Sergeant Major's House at Dover Castle sleeps six plus a baby and costs £755 for a week in May.
Peverell's Gate was built in the early 13th Century and according to a plaque within the archway was "possibly named after William Peverell (alt. William de Peverell), Constable 1066".
From "Dover Castle" by R. Allen Brown (Her Majesty's Stationery Office, HMSO 1974) (Abridged):
Peverell's Gate or Tower marks the juncture of the work of King John and Henry III, and is itself a composite structure of both reigns. It basically consists of a great mural tower with a spurred base, facing the field and backing on to a gateway within the castle facing north and south. Henry III further fortified this gateway by adding a semicircular tower facing south. Within the main passage way of the gate an archway, now blocked, led off at right-angles northwards to the vanished Harcourt Tower. Peverell was further altered about 1300 and the remarkable conical roof, with its king-post to the apex inside, may date from. that time. The original battlemented top was replaced by the present unsightly brick parapet evidently in the early nineteenth century.
From "The History of the Castle, Town and Port of Dover" by Reverend S. P. H. Statham, Rector of St Mary-in-the-Castle (ie St Mary-in-Castro) (Longmans, Green, and Co., 1899):
Peverell's Tower, also called The Marshal's, Beauchamp's, and the Bell Tower. The manors of Wrensted and Throwley in Kent were responsible for the up-keep of this fine tower, which with its arched gateway, ditch [moat] and drawbridge constituted the entrance into the middle ward. At one time it was used as a prison and the residence of the marshal, and hence its name. On the side of the tower fronting the keep there was an arched passage from the main gate, which communicated with the caponiere [alt. caponier, caponnier] leading under Harcourt's Tower. The arms of Hugh Beauchamp, marshal of the Castle, were cut on a stone shield placed on the front of the tower, and were visible in 1801, when the stone was removed. The original battlements have been replaced by a parapet of brick. In 1771 the wall between this tower and Port [ie Port Tower, alt. Laswells, Gostling or Queen Mary's Tower] fell down, and in digging for a new foundation the piers of the old bridge before the gate were discovered.
Constable's Tower is also known as Constable's Gate, Constable's Gateway, Constable's Tower and Gate; similarly Peverell's Gate is also sometimes called Peverell's Tower, Peverell's Gateway, Peverell's Tower and Gate.

I knew of an obscure law in Texas that essentially made it illegal to have in your home more than two sex toys (guess why the two?). Seeing as archaeologists have found dildos in ancient Egyptian tombs and such this clearly not some vile post '60 innovation undoubtedly linked to drugs.
I didn't know Ted Cruz was an architect of either creating the law or just making it er… harder. But…
In perhaps the most noticeable line of the brief, Cruz's office declared, "There is no substantive-due-process right to stimulate one's genitals for non-medical purposes unrelated to procreation or outside of an interpersonal relationship."
It sort of seems this was a kinda plea bargain for the removal of the sodomy laws (which he was part of). OK, we'll let gays do what they want but not with artificial help. In short things like anal sex were made legal but a vibrating butt-plug illegal. Yeah, I'm doing a switcharo here because dildos (or similar) are used in all ends (intended) of the sexual Spectrum (ZX and indeed 48K).
There are a number of issues here but let's boil it down to one. Ted Cruz strongly implies sex ought to be for procreation and not for fun. So that is me un-fucked. Oh go on Nick! Yes I shall. Would he object to a married woman having a contraceptive implant? I bet he would. Because that is very much sex for fun and also bonding between two humans at the deepest level. There is a bigger issue though. How very dare Ted Cruz tell people what sex is for? How very dare he declare that sex without procreation is against the constitution when the constitution doesn't mention sex at all and for good reason. Because it is private. He does also mention "public morals" and that is scary. And it comes down to the line about due process rights. And that is scary. The law is to tell you what not to do and not what you can do. Under common law systems it is assumed (and generally upheld) that you can do whatever you want unless it is specifically proscribed. Cruz's attitude to masturbation is very scary here because it is about the law having to specifically allow something. It is basically allowing nothing unless it is made as legal.
That is very worrying.

Our Memories, Our Selves
Published: February 15, 1998
(Page 3 of 8)
A simple definition of memory is much trickier today than it was even a decade ago because of the way scientists have dissected memory into so many parts. There is semantic memory (of factual information) and episodic memory (of past experiences) and priming (unconscious recall of short visual or auditory cues) and ''flashbulb'' memories of defining moments, like J.F.K.'s assassination. There is explicit memory (the memory of what), which relies on the hippocampus, the processing center in the core of the brain, and there is implicit memory (the memory of how), some forms of which reside in the motor cortex and don't seem to need the hippocampus at all. This explains how ''Frederick,'' an Alzheimer's patient studied by Schacter, could remember all the mechanics of playing golf but not how many strokes he made on each hole; sometimes he even forgot where he had hit his ball.
The problems of understanding the circuitry of memory are immense. Humans possess an estimated 1 trillion neurons, plus 70 trillion synaptic connections between them, and it's even more complicated than those numbers suggest. A single neuron may have as many as 10,000 synapses, but during the process of memory formation perhaps only 12 synapses will be strengthened while another 100 will be weakened. The sum of those changes, multiplied neuron by neuron, creates a weighted circuit that amounts to a memory.
The problem of circuitry has been skirted, at least temporarily, by a small and almost willfully iconoclastic group of neuroscientists who have ''gone molecular'' in the most fundamental way. While the majority of neuroscientists study mice or rats or primates, these more reductionist biologists have bet the farm -- their time, their careers, their research money -- on the proposition that simple animals with exceedingly simple brains can reveal some universal biological truths about how memory works.
No one has dominated this area of research more than Eric Kandel, who has been working on the cellular basis of memory for four decades, and no one has more spectacularly demonstrated the potential power of molecular genetics in memory research than Tim Tully and his colleagues at Cold Spring Harbor. The recent industrial competition between these two men extends a lively intellectual rivalry growing out of their shared belief that the CREB switch may be a key to memory.
Because memory is so intensely personal, it is easy to feel offended by the notion that a bunch of molecules with thorny names, identified mostly in animals with no brains to speak of, can presume to explain its intricacies and Proustian richness in humans. That is precisely the bias that Kandel has battled for decades, and he has stuck with it long enough to have something like the last laugh.
When I visited him recently, he ushered me into his bright, uncluttered corner office on the sixth floor of the New York State Psychiatric Institute, part of Columbia's College of Physicians and Surgeons. Both the furnishings and the hospitality had an Old World civility, from a handsome oil portrait to an elegant Mission-style coffee table, laid out with fine china, hot coffee and fresh bagels.
Dressed in a crisp blue-striped shirt and a vibratingly bright bow tie, the 68-year-old Kandel holds forth with witty, erudite and often profane charm. Despite occasional protestations of modesty, he is known among peers for being intellectually territorial and unusually proprietary about his reputation. He's not above remonstrating with colleagues about perceived slights or berating journalists if he doesn't like what they write about him.
The custodial energies expended on his reputation seem largely unnecessary. Many people share the view of Larry Squire, a leading neuroscientist at the University of California at San Diego, who calls Kandel's lifetime devotion to the study of memory a ''monumental'' achievement. Born in Vienna, Kandel fled Nazi-occupied Austria with his family in 1939, attended Erasmus Hall High School in Brooklyn and went to Harvard. There he became interested in psychoanalysis but got fruitfully distracted by neurobiology during medical school. ''I began to think about problems in neurobiology that are relevant to psychiatry,'' he says. ''And I thought: Learning and memory is going to be a tractable problem in my lifetime. You know, not tomorrow, but in 20 or 30 years.''
Kandel began to look for a ''system'' -- science-speak for an animal to study that would tell him something about learning and memory. ''I wanted to take a radically reductionist approach,'' he says. The animal he settled on was a lumpy mollusk called Aplysia californica, a large sea snail that you will never see in a wildlife calendar. It looks like a purplish-green baked potato with ears.
But it was perfect for what Kandel had in mind, which was to see if he could take a simple behavior and detect changes in the inner sanctum of nerve cells as the animal learned. Aplysia obliged handsomely. It has the largest nerve cells in the animal kingdom. It possesses only 20,000 neurons in all (some of them conveniently color-coded by nature, making it easier to sort out the circuitry). And despite its humble looks, Aplysia turns out to have some surprisingly complex behavior. ''One of the wonderful things we began to appreciate is that these goddamn invertebrates can learn anything!'' Kandel says. ''I mean, they can't learn to speak French, but all the things that Pavlov and the behavioral psychologists had talked about -- what we now call implicit, or nondeclarative, forms of memory -- they could do in spades.''

Bonanza Goldfields Acquires Historic Claims at Tarantula - Production Starts this Quarterhttp://finance.yahoo.com/news/Bonanza-Goldfields-Acquires-iw-1525192711.html?x=0"Commenting on Bonanza Goldfields' historic development, President Scott G. Geisler stated, "Although the final aspects of the Preliminary Geological Survey are being completed, management has enough information to move ahead with alluvial placer production plans. Equipment and personnel are being mobilized and nominal production levels are expected to proceed in the current quarter. Furthermore, based on cursory exploration of the new claims package, targets are already being identified for a drill program commissioning to prove out additional placer material and mineralized quartz veins." "Geisler continued, "Expanding our footprint at Tarantula is very advantageous for shareholders, and securing these claims brings substantial new value to the company. Achieving our expansion goals ensures the life of the project as we move forward. Early on, we proved to ourselves the viability of the project through local assay and analysis. With exceptional visible mineralized quartz present on Tarantula's claims and our close proximity to the historic Congress mine site, we feel Bonanza now has a world class land package that will prove to be as historic in nature as the Congress Mine."

By Ben Philpott • Feb 5, 2013 KUT News The University of Texas Football team had a string of bad news over the weekend. The big news was the revelation that offensive coordinator Major Applewhite had a sexual relationship with a student a few years back. Then one of the team's players was arrested for public intoxication. Minor in comparison: a high school football star Texas had been recruiting announced he would not be coming to the 40 acres. But these are just the latest disappointing moments for a proud program on hard times. Even if you're not a Longhorn fan, you're bound to have heard of the team's recent problems on and off the field. Because if you live in Austin, you've got at least one friend that cares passionately about the topic and hasn't been shy about expressing their feelings on the subject. Bill Would Require Annual UT vs. A&M Football Game By Reeve Hamilton, Texas Tribune • Jan 28, 2013 Tom Pennington via Texas Tribune A bill that would require the University of Texas at Austin and Texas A&M University to face each other on the football field every year was filed on Monday by state Rep.Ryan Guillen, D-Rio Grande City.

Going Bowling: UT, Other Texas Teams Head Into Post-Season Play By Laura Rice • Dec 3, 2012 Filipa Rodrigues for KUT News The Texas Longhorns will play Oregon State in the Alamo Bowl in San Antonio this post-season. The Longhorns have played the Oregon State Beavers twice. UT won both times. Oregon State does have a better record and a higher rank this season. The game is Dec. 29. Some expected the Longhorns to head to the Cotton Bowl. Instead, that's where UT's Big 12 rival Oklahoma will play former Big 12 rival Texas A&M on Jan. 4.

Hopes of a Big 12 title this season have now been reduced to playing the spoiler against Kansas State. If the Wildcats win Saturday, the team will claim it's first Big 12 title since 2003. Each of the Longhorns' losses this season has been a blow from another Big 12 member (Oklahoma, West Virginia, TCU).

The target of the hex this year will be Texas Christian University. UT plays TCU on Thanksgiving Day. Photos: Memorial for Legendary Longhorn Coach Darrell K Royal By KUT Staff • Nov 13, 2012 Filipa Rodrigues for KUT News Thousands of people paid their final respects to legendary University of Texas football coach Darrell K Royal today. A public memorial was held at the Erwin Center and included a performance by Willie Nelson, and eulogies from UT-Austin President Bill Powers and current Longhorn coach Mack Brown. "I asked him about what the best thing about coaching at Texas was, coaching football," Brown said of Royal, "and he said, '25 million people care everyday about what you do.' I said, 'Coach, what's the worst thing about coaching at Texas?' and he said, 'Twenty-five million people care about what you do everyday.'" Public Memorial Today for UT's Darrell K Royal By Laura Rice • Nov 13, 2012 flickr.com/wallyg The University of Texas at Austin community is invited to attend a public memorial service for Darrell K Royal today. The longtime football coach passed away last Wednesday. He was 88 years-old. The memorial service is being held at the Frank Erwin Center. The doors will open at 10:30 and the event will begin at noon. University officials expect traffic in the area will be congested. DKR Memorabilia at Auction to Benefit Alzheimer's Research By Laura Rice • Nov 9, 2012 Austin Auction An auction of Coach Darrell K Royal's sports memorabilia, personal collections and historic artifacts is happening this Sunday. The event had been planned for months but takes on new meaning after the longtime University of Texas at Austin football coach died on Wednesday. He was 88 years-old. For fans that no longer have the opportunity to meet Coach Royal, it's a chance for them to find a certain closeness to him. "Before this even happened, Edith, Coach Royal's wife Edith Royal, who is of equal importance, made the statement that she hoped that Darrells's fans would be the ones to own these things now. She's cherished them for a lifetime. And that was her wish that Darrell's fans would come out and be able to share the memories by owning a piece of that history that they created," Chris Featherston, co-owner of Austin Auction, says. Former UT Coach Darrell K Royal Passes Away By Laura Rice & Kelli Ainsworth • Nov 7, 2012 texassports.com Longtime University of Texas football coach Darrell Royal passed away this morning. He was 88-years-old. Royal coached the Longhorns from 1957 to 1976 and led the team to three National Championships. Royal also served as athletic director from 1962 to 1979. The University honored Royal in 1996 by renaming the football stadium, Darrell K Royal-Memorial Stadium. During the announcement, UT System chancellor William Cunningham said, "No individual has contributed more to athletics at UT-Austin than Darrell Royal. He is a living legend." Royal was the all-time winningest coach of the Longhorns. KUT spoke with Royal's wife, Edith, last month. She said Royal enjoyed attending UT football games long after he retired from coaching the team. A friend of the Royal family told KUT News that plans for his memorial services are underway. The LBJ Presidential Library has set up a memorial page for Royal with photos and a phone conversation between Royal and President Lyndon Baines Johnson. After the news of Royal's passing broke this morning, fans used Twitter to express their reactions and condolences: Richard Justice, an MLB.com correspondent (@richardjustice): "RIP Darrell Royal. Man of integrity and humor, intimidating and kind, absolutely brilliant with people." Brian Jones (@BJ_CFB), a former UT football player and current football analyst for CBS Sports: "Thoughts and prayers to the Darrell Royal family and Longhorn Nation! We lost a great one!" Cole Constien (@ColeConstien): "Thank you for the memories Darrell Royal. You have a place in every true sports fan's heart. Rest in peace." Yvette (@YLoTexas): "Rest in peace Coach Darrell Royal. A great man, champion and Texan. The Eyes of Texas shed a tear today. Hook 'em." Jeff Howe (@JeffHowe247), a football reporter for 247Sports.com:"Somber start to the day with the passing of Darrell Royla at age 88. He's responsible for why so many cheer for the Longhorns." Here's a statement from Governor Rick Perry on the passing of Darrell Royal: "Darrell Royal was a coaching icon and the face of football in the Lone Star State for a generation of Texans. His legacy can be counted in national championships, but also in his unending devotion to his university and in the Darrell K Royal Research Fund for Alzheimer's Disease. Anita and I join Texans everywhere in mourning his loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with his beloved wife, Edith, son, Mack, and his extended family and friends." Current UT Football Head Coach Mack Brown also shared his thoughts: "Today is a very sad day. I lost a wonderful friend, a mentor, a confidant and my hero. College football lost maybe its best ever and the world lost a great man. I can hardly put in words how much Coach Royal means to me and all that he has done for me and my family. I wouldn't even be at Texas without Coach. His council and friendship meant a lot to me before I came to Texas, but it's been my guiding light for my 15 years here."Coach gave so much more to the State of Texas and college football than he took away. He forgot more football than most of us will ever know, including me. His impact on the game, the coaches and players, the community and the millions of lives he touched, is insurmountable. He will be missed in so many ways. Mack Brown: Longhorn Network Leaving UT a 'Little Overexposed' By Hady Karl Mawajdeh • Oct 23, 2012 KUT News If you ask a Longhorn fan their thoughts about the Longhorn Network, you might hear complaints about its cable carrier agreements. Ask a rival team's fans, and you might hear grumblings about the cash cow the network represents for the Forty Acres. But if you ask University of Texas head football coach Mack Brown his thoughts about the Longhorn Network, you might just get a piece of his mind. That's what happened yesterday at Brown's weekly press conference, where he spoke rather frankly about the effect the network is having on the Horns this football season. Brown argued that the Longhorns are a "little overexposed" this year. He cited a conversation he had with Baylor Head Coach Art Briles where he was told that "Baylor sees every practice." He also thinks that opponents north of Waco are watching too. Pages« first ‹ previous 1 2 3 4 next › last »


text: Submitted by Raven Snook on Sun, 09/13/2015 - 10:00am There are some experiences every family should try once. Then there are annual events that, after you try them, you vow to do every year forevermore. That's how I feel about the Great Jack O' Lantern Blaze in Westchester County. I'd actually never even heard of the Blaze until we published a post about it right here on Mommy Poppins. I thought, thousands of hand-carved jack-o'-lanterns? Sounds like my Halloween-obsessed kid would enjoy that. What I didn't realize at the time was how much I, the seen-it-all goth mom New Yorker, would be blown away by the beauty of this massive art installation. The downside of the Great Jack O' Lantern Blaze is that tickets start selling out way in advance... like early September. Happily, the folks at Historic Hudson Valley who sponsor the event, have expanded the Blaze to 30 nights this year. The Blaze is definitely worth splurging on, even if you need to rent a Zipcar (although it's also accessible via public transportation). The first thing to understand about the Blaze is that it's a jaw-dropping original and totally worth the schlep. (It's much closer to NYC than Rise of the Jack O' Lanterns on Long Island and more immersive than the Haunted Pumpkin Garden at the New York Botanical Garden, which, like the Blaze, was designed by Michael Natiello.) The grounds of Van Cortlandt Manor overflow with incredibly detailed pumpkin sculptures, everything from traditional grinning jack-'o-lanterns to massive sculptures of dinosaurs, robots, animals, flowers, scarecrows, totem polls, snakes, giant spiderwebs, creatures from Greek and Roman mythology, King Kong and much more. It's truly breathtaking: There are intricately carved pumpkins flickering in the darkness as far as the eye can see. I wouldn't say it's scary, but it can be overwhelming, and creepy music composed by Richard Christy from The Howard Stern Show blares from speakers all around you. Kids who are afraid of the dark probably won't like it, but really the most terrifying thing you'll encounter are the volunteers, who often yell at you in an effort to keep people moving. Tickets are sold in 30-minute increments and that's about how long it will take you to get through the whole thing, depending on your pace. When you arrive, there's a holding tent where you can buy hot apple cider, seasonal treats and Halloween tchotchkes, and watch carvers work their magic. According to the very amusing FAQ on the Blaze website, you'll see approximately 5,000 jack-'o-lanterns during your visit. Not all of them are made out of organic pumpkins, though. Some of the most intricate creations were crafted from "art pumpkins" so they can be preserved. It takes more than 1,000 volunteers to help bring the Blaze to life, and their work definitely shows. A few words of advice: The Blaze is tough to navigate with a stroller, and since the grounds sometimes get muddy, it's best to leave the Elvira heels at home. There's often a traffic jam at the start of the tour (think tourists gawking in Times Square at Christmas). You don't need to wait for them, just walk on by. Everyone goes at their own pace but, as we said, volunteers often urge you to move along. The route strategically takes you through the gift shop. Good luck with that (I gave myself a $20 limit last year and left with a witch notebook, an eyeball headband and a couple of glittery skeleton decorations). Try to buy tickets for around dusk. That way you can watch the jack-o'-lanterns come to life as the darkness falls around them. Consider buying tickets for after Halloween. The Blaze runs through Sunday, November 15 so there are two weekends post-October 31 when you can check it out. Think of it as one last chance to wear your costume. Still not convinced that the Blaze is worth the trek? Just do a google image search. And it's even more spectacular in person. The Great Jack O' Lantern Blaze takes place at Van Cortlandt Manor in Croton-on-Hudson in Westechester County on select evenings Friday, October 2-Sunday, November 15. Times vary. Visit the website for a complete schedule. Saturdays: $25 for adults, $20 for children ages 3-17. Other nights: $20 for adults, $16 for children ages 3-17. Advance tickets are a must. The Blaze is accessible via public transportation. Take a one-hour train ride on Metro-North or Amtrak. Get off at the Croton-Harmon station and then it's just a five-minute cab ride away.
