Conference Paper: Discovering Objective Functions for Tagging Medical Text Concepts[Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: This research demonstrates the use of genetic programming to derive the objective function that ranks the candidate concepts and selects the set of best matching concepts for a sentence within medical text. A short set of example primitive and linguistic variables was input into the GP process, and a set of manually tagged sentences extracted from the literature was used to derive different objective functions potentially suitable for tagging. This proof-of-concept demonstrates the potential of this approach to simplify automated semantic tagging and to identify some of the likely challenges of applying the GP approach to complex linguistics problems of this nature.
- [Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: In ant colony optimization (ACO) methods, including Ant System and MAX-M IN Ant System, each ant stochastically generates its candidate solution, in a given iteration, based on the same pheromone T and heuristic η information as every other ant. Stubborn ants is an ACO variation in which if an ant generates a particular candidate solution in a given iteration, then the components of that solution will have a higher probability of being selected in the candidate solution generated by that ant in the next iteration. In previous work, we evaluated this variation with the M M AS Ant System model and the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP), and found that it can both improve solution quality and reduce execution-time. In this paper, we evaluate stubborn ants with Ranked Ant System, and find that performance also improves in terms of solution quality and execution time.
- [Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: Clustering has been used extensively in the analysis of high-throughput messenger RNA (mRNA) expression profiling with microarrays. Furthermore, clustering has proven elemental in microRNA expression profiling, which demonstrates enormous promise in the areas of cancer diagnosis and treatment, gene function identification, therapy development and drug testing, and genetic regulatory network inference. However, such a practice is inherently limited due to the existence of many uncorrelated genes with respect to sample or condition clustering, or many unrelated samples or conditions with respect to gene clustering. Biclustering offers a solution to such problems by performing simultaneous clustering on both dimensions, or automatically integrating feature selection to clustering without any prior information, so that the relations of clusters of genes (generally, features) and clusters of samples or conditions (data objects) are established. However, the NP-complete computational complexity raises a great challenge to computational methods for identifying such local relations. Here, we propose and demonstrate that a neural-based classifier, ARTMAP, can be modified to perform biclustering in an efficient way, leading to a biclustering algorithm called Biclustering ARTMAP (BARTMAP). Experimental results on multiple human cancer data sets show that BARTMAP can achieve clustering structures with higher qualities than those achieved with other commonly used biclustering or clustering algorithms, and with fast run times.
- [Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: A feature extractor and neural classifier for a face image recognition system are proposed. They are based on the Permutation Coding technique, which continues our investigation of neural networks. The permutation coding technique makes it possible to take into account not only detected features, but also the position of each feature in the image. It permits us to obtain a sufficiently general description of the image to be recognized. Different types of images were used to test the proposed image recognition system. It was tested on the handwritten digit recognition problem and the face recognition problem. The results of this test are very promising. The error rate for the MNIST database is 0.44%, and for the ORL database it is 0.1%. In the last section, which is devoted to micromechanics applications, we will describe the application of the permutation coding technique to the micro-object shape recognition problem.
- [Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: Given the vast amount of image intelligence utilized in support of planning and executing military operations, a passive automated image processing capability for target identification is urgently required. Furthermore, transmitting large image streams from remote locations would quickly use available band width (BW) precipitating the need for processing to occur at the sensor location. This paper addresses the problem of automatic target recognition for battle damage assessment (BDA). We utilize an Adaptive Resonance Theory approach to cluster templates of target buildings. The results show that the network successfully classifies targets from non-targets in a virtual test bed environment.

Conference Paper: Default ARTMAP Neural Networks for Classification of Anthrax Time Series from Inhalation Anthrax Models.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: The possibility of the usage of deadly aerosolized pathogens, particularly anthrax, in bioterrorist attack has raised tremendous concerns in recent years. Several anthrax incubation models have been introduced in order to characterize the incubation period of human inhalation anthrax. It is important to accurately identify the model that fits best with the observed anthrax time series, which directly affects the prediction results of the severity of the potential anthrax attacks. Here, we applied Default ARTMAP, an important neural network algorithm for classification, to separate anthrax time series generated from different inhalation anthrax models. Experimental results on anthrax time series derived from major inhalation anthrax models, together with anti-patterns and a smallpox time series, demonstrate the effectiveness of Default ARTMAP in identifying anthrax time series derived from different models, as well as discriminating unrelated cases.
Article: Inference of Genetic Regulatory Networks with Recurrent Neural Network Models Using Particle Swarm Optimization[Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: Genetic regulatory network inference is critically important for revealing fundamental cellular processes, investigating gene functions, and understanding their relations. The availability of time series gene expression data makes it possible to investigate the gene activities of whole genomes, rather than those of only a pair of genes or among several genes. However, current computational methods do not sufficiently consider the temporal behavior of this type of data and lack the capability to capture the complex nonlinear system dynamics. We propose a recurrent neural network (RNN) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) approach to infer genetic regulatory networks from time series gene expression data. Under this framework, gene interaction is explained through a connection weight matrix. Based on the fact that the measured time points are limited and the assumption that the genetic networks are usually sparsely connected, we present a PSO-based search algorithm to unveil potential genetic network constructions that fit well with the time series data and explore possible gene interactions. Furthermore, PSO is used to train the RNN and determine the network parameters. Our approach has been applied to both synthetic and real data sets. The results demonstrate that the RNN/PSO can provide meaningful insights in understanding the nonlinear dynamics of the gene expression time series and revealing potential regulatory interactions between genes.
- [Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: We use a multi-stream extended Kalman filter for the CATS benchmark (Competition on Artificial Time Series), to train recurrent multilayer perceptrons. A weighted bidirectional approach is adopted to combine forward and backward predictions and to generate the final predictions on the missing points.
Chapter: Hybrid of Neural Classifier and Swarm Intelligence in Multiclass Cancer Diagnosis with Gene Expression Signatures
Conference Paper: Application of Collective Robotic Search Using Neural Network Based Dual Heuristic Programming (DHP)[Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: An important application of mobile robots is searching a region to locate the origin of a specific phenomenon. A variety of optimization algo-rithms can be employed to locate the target source, which has the maximum intensity of the distribution of some detected function. We propose a neural network based dual heuristic programming (DHP) algorithm to solve the collective robotic search problem. Experiments were carried out to investigate the effect of noise and the number of robots on the task performance, as well as the expenses. The experimental results were compared with those of stochastic optimization algorithm. It showed that the performance of the dual heuristic programming (DHP) is better than the stochastic optimization method.
- [Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: Gene regulatory inference from time series gene expression data, generated from DNA microarray, has become increasingly important in investigating genes functions and unveiling fundamental cellular processes. Computational methods in machine learning and neural networks play an active role in analyzing the obtained data. Here, we investigate the performance of particle swarm optimization (PSO) on the reconstruction of gene networks, which is modeled with recurrent neural networks (RNN). The experimental results on a synthetic data set are presented to show the parameter effects of PSO on RNN training and the effectiveness of the proposed method in revealing the gene relations.
- [Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: Some of the artificial intelligence (AI) methods could be used to improve the performance of automation systems in manufacturing processes. However, the application of these methods in the industry is not widespread because of the high cost of the experiments with the AI systems applied to the conventional manufacturing systems. To reduce the cost of such experiments, we have developed a special micromechanical equipment, similar to conventional mechanical equipment, but of a lot smaller overall sizes and therefore of lower cost. This equipment can be used for evaluation of different AI methods in an easy and inexpensive way. The methods that show good results can be transferred to the industry through appropriate scaling. This paper contains brief description of low cost microequipment prototypes and some AI methods that can be evaluated with mentioned prototypes. Full Text at Springer, may require registration or fee
Article: A Heuristic-Dynamic-Programming-Based Power System Stabilizer for a Turbogenerator in a Single-Machine Power System[Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: Power system stabilizers (PSSs) are used to generate supplementary control signals for the excitation system in order to damp the low-frequency power system oscillations. To overcome the drawbacks of a conventional PSS (CPSS), numerous techniques have been proposed in the literature. Based on the analysis of existing techniques, a novel design based on heuristic dynamic programming (HDP) is presented in this paper. HDP, combining the concepts of dynamic programming and reinforcement learning, is used in the design of a nonlinear optimal power system stabilizer. Results show the effectiveness of this new technique. The performance of the HDP-based PSS is compared with the CPSS and the indirect-adaptive-neurocontrol-based PSS under small and large disturbances. In addition, the impact of different discount factors in the HDP PSS's performance is presented.
Conference Paper: An Embedded Real-Time Neuro-Fuzzy Controller for Mobile Robot Navigation[Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: A reactive fuzzy logic based control strategy was developed for mobile robot navigation. To decrease the number of fuzzy rules and related processing, a RAM-based neural network was combined with the fuzzy logic strategy. The fuzzy rules are used to interpret sensor information. The neural network uses results from the fuzzy logic as well as environmental information to make navigation decisions. The feasibility of this neuro-fuzzy approach was demonstrated on a mobile robot using a simple, 8-bit microcontroller. Experiments show the approach works well, as the robot was able to successfully avoid objects while seeking a goal in real-time. The neuro-fuzzy approach is code-efficient, fast, and easy to relate to the physical world
- [Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: To overcome the shortcomings of fully analog and fully digital implementation of artificial neural networks (ANNs), we adopted mixed analog/digital technique. We proposed a switched-resistor (SR) element as a programmable synapse. The switched-resistor implementation of synapse captures both the advantages of analog implementation and the programmability of digital implementation. We also designed a CMOS analog neuron that performs a near-tanh nonlinearity function. We evaluated the performance of the neural networks using Pspice. The results showed that our approach can successfully implement the neural network, and exhibit a very high modularity
Article: Survey of Clustering Algorithms[Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: Data analysis plays an indispensable role for understanding various phenomena. Cluster analysis, primitive exploration with little or no prior knowledge, consists of research developed across a wide variety of communities. The diversity, on one hand, equips us with many tools. On the other hand, the profusion of options causes confusion. We survey clustering algorithms for data sets appearing in statistics, computer science, and machine learning, and illustrate their applications in some benchmark data sets, the traveling salesman problem, and bioinformatics, a new field attracting intensive efforts. Several tightly related topics, proximity measure, and cluster validation, are also discussed.
Conference Paper: Decentralized neural network control of a class of large-scale systems with unknown interconnections[Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: A novel decentralized neural network (DNN) controller is proposed for a class of large-scale nonlinear systems with unknown interconnections. The objective is to design a DNN for a class of large-scale systems which do not satisfy the matching condition requirement. The NNs are used to approximate the unknown subsystem dynamics and the interconnections. The DNN is designed using the back stepping methodology with only local signals for feedback. All of the signals in the closed loop (system states and weights estimation errors) are guaranteed to be uniformly ultimately bounded and eventually converge to a compact set.
Conference Paper: Gene regulatory networks inference with recurrent neural network models[Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: Large-scale time series gene expression data generated from DNA microarray experiments provide us a new means to reveal fundamental cellular processes, investigate functions of genes, and understand their relations and interactions. To infer gene regulatory networks from these data with effective computational tools has attracted intensive efforts from artificial intelligence and machine learning. Here, we use a recurrent neural network (RNN), trained with particle swarm optimization (PSO), to investigate the behaviors of regulatory networks. The experimental results, on a synthetic data set and a real data set, show that the proposed model and algorithm can effectively capture the dynamics of the gene expression time series and are capable of revealing regulatory interactions between genes.
Conference Paper: Image recognition systems with permutative coding[Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: A feature extractor and neural classifier for image recognition system are proposed. They are based on the permutative coding technique which continues our investigations on neural networks. It permits us to obtain sufficiently general description of the image to be recognized. Different types of images were used to test the proposed image recognition system. It was tested on the handwritten digit recognition problem, the face recognition problem and the shape of microobjects recognition problem. The results of testing are very promising. The error rate for the MNIST database is 0.44% and for the ORL database is 0.1%.

If you don't know me by now, you aren't coming out to quiz nights often enough. Been quizzing with the group since November of 2012.
I first came out for a trivia night in late November of 2012. I was nervous about finding the group and trying to fit in but I was quickly welcomed. Having now attended twelve weeks, I have to say it just keeps getting better. Everyone I have met has been wonderful to team with, whether they are first-timers or regulars. The weekly PubStumpers has become my favorite night of the week.

This is Big Girls Cry by Sia. I love the song, but I think the girl in the video is just brilliant!
My Timehop this morning has reminded me of last November when I was in London on a UX course for a few days. London in November is beautiful, if a little cold and my course was in a building a stones throw from the Tower of London, where they had the stunning poppy display. I never shared the photos I took on my trip, but I think today is a timely day to post them up here.
The area around the Tower of London was packed with people who had come to see the exhibition. Fighting my way through the crowds to get back to the tube on an evening, I always stopped to look at the poppies. It was on a morning though that they were at their best. No crowds, and the early morning soft sunshine combined to make them a beautiful and peaceful sight.
The poppies have been split up now, but if you are anywhere near Wakefield you can see a few of them in the Wave exhibition at Yorkshire Sculpture park until early next year.
The UX course took place in a building in St Katharine Docks. I'd never heard of this place before, but it was full of little coffee shops, old buildings, sail boats and interesting sights.
When I was there they had a wooden hippo as part of an art installation and the Queen's barge was on display. It got busy around lunch time with tourists and office workers looking for lunch, but later or earlier in the day it's an interesting place to visit if you're in the area.
Finally, no trip to London is complete without a cocktail, I got mine in the charming Drink, Shop and Do café near Kings Cross train station. A word of warning though, if you want to go on one of their workshops book in advance! My friend Jenni and I had planned to take part in one but it was more than full when we got there, with a queue of people waiting for a place!
It Ain't You by The Ettes. I found this one through Orphan Black, a series I've been binge watching on Netflix over the past couple of weeks. I say binge watching, but for me that's about 2 episodes a week because I find it hard to sit still long enough to watch anything on TV.
Anyway, I like Sarah, the main character in Orphan Black, and her style and music she listens to. it's all a bit punk rock, but in a modern and quite feminine way. This is one of my favourites – enjoy!
We spent a lovely, sunny day at West Yorkshire Sculpture Park last week. We admired the Henry Moore Exhibition, climbed a couple of trees, and walked for miles in the sunshine.
It was my birthday that day, so in the evening we went to my favourite restaurant for dinner – the Cow Shed in Wakefield.
"Make a naughty face Helen!" A pre-dinner chai tea, in my Little Miss Naughty mug – a gift from my boyfriend. He thinks it suits me, I'm not so sure I agree.
Website accessibility is about how easy it is for disabled users to access the information or services that your website offers. Having a website that is accessible means that everyone can access the content on your website and it is easy to understand your content. It covers all disabilities that can affect access to your website, but it can also benefit other users including older people and those with 'temporary disabilities'.
The accessibility of your website needs to be thought about while your website is being designed and developed, and while you are adding or updating content – text, images, videos, and documents that can be downloaded from your website. For example, videos with important information in the sound should have subtitles, closed captions, or a text transcript alternative.
Your web designer or developer should create an accessible website as standard and should not be charging extra for it. Ask them about it before any agreement is reached. Once your website is up and running it will be up to the people that add content to it to make sure that it is all accessible.
Having an inaccessible website means that you are shutting out part of your target audience for no reason. Around 11 million people in the UK have a limiting long term illness, impairment or disability – that's about 16% of working age adults, and 5% of adults over State Pension age. Why make it difficult for them to get to your products or services?
Anyone can have accessibility issues, not just disabled people – if you fall and injure your wrist, if you need glasses, if you get an ear infection and can't hear properly. All of these could cause problems when you are trying to use websites – unless the websites have been built to be accessible.
UK law, in the Equality Act 2010, states that no user should be exluded on the basis of disability. A website that is inaccessible to people with disabilites is considered a breach of the Equality Act 2010 and a court case could be brought against the website owners.
See the Gov.uk – Accessibility, how to make services that everyone can use webpage for guidance from the government for how to ensure that your website complies with legal guidelines.
As a starting point, the government recommends that your website should meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) created by theWorld Wide Web Consortium (W3C) You should aim for your website and the content on it to meet Level AA of the guidelines.
Have you heard that an accessible website is also a boring website? Or that it is too expensive or time consuming to create?
Well that isn't the case! An accessible website does not have to be ugly or boring. You can still have a beautiful, media-rich website that is interactive and engaging, and accessible. If you build in accessibility right from the start it does not add a lot to the cost or the time to develop. And as we have already seen, you could be fined for having an inaccessible website – a lot more than the cost of getting it right from the start.
Making websites accessible means following web standards. This in turn will make your website easier for everyone to use, more future proof, more robust, and more scalable. It will mean it works better across the wide range of tablets and phones in use today, and more likely to work on devices released in the future.
If your visitors, disabled or not, see that your website is easy to use they are more likely to return, and hopefully spread the word about you to friends and family! For you this can lead to more sales, an improved reputation, and a bigger audience.
The benefits of having an accessible website far outweigh the cost and extra effort that go into it.

This plugin seems like it's extremely powerful, but I'm just trying to figure out how to output a list of linked posts within a loop of the parent. My relationship is setup between post types (one of "ideas" and one of "tasks"). I'm trying to add
SubPosts::API()->get_childs( $link_id, $parent_id )
within the loop of a single post page for the "ideas" post type, so it will show the attached sub posts dynamically depending on what post we are currently on. If everything was outputted in a list that'd be helpful too. I just need a full sample of the code (I'm assuming I can use $post->ID for $parent_ID but what is $link_ID for, and how do I echo out the results?)
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you!

It kills you to see them grow up, but it would kill you quicker if they didn't." Amazed that I can love two just as much!
Haha, I went without the other day, bc I was so pissed off about having to pee all the time. I feel like the whole house smells like urine, I never want to pee again!
I sneezed the other day and lets just say I had to change my pants.┬Ā It happens but thank goodness I was at home.
I go without underwear every opportunity I get.┬Ā Like a PP, the first thing to come off when I get home is bra & underwear.
i never wear underwear lol only time i ever did is when i had my period and right after my son was born..thats it lol

Sorry, I couldn't stand the thought of not wearing undies.┬Ā If they are too sung - I go get a bigger size or I lovepats because they are really strectchy.┬Ā No free gi jane here.
I can grow people.... so what's your super power?
It's a girl !
I know this is TMI, but I was wondering about the PG discharge too... Isn't that icky w/out undies? ┬ĀOr maybe you don't get that. ┬ĀIDK, but I have ALWAYS been a fan of granny panties!

Well designed, Excellent vaue & features
By Dennis 59
from Franklin Park, IL, United States
Comments about Whirlpool 7.4 Cu. Ft. Gas Dryer - White:
I recently purchased my Whirlpool Dryer and I'm very happy that I did . The overall value /cost of the unit along with its stylish appearance and features sold me on this dryer. I have owned several Whirlpool appliances and continue to purchase them because of their dependability and longevity. My previous dryer performed for over 10+ years before I needed to have repairs made. I eventually retired my dryer this year after 13 years of service.I cant say that for other brand name appliances. I would recommend all Whirlpool brand appliances to family, friends or anyone who is looking for a dependable product that with proper care will last them for years to come.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Perfect Reasonably Priced Gas Dryer
By Sonny04
from Bergen County , NJ
Have always found Whirlpool Dryers the most cost effective. After having our previous Whirlpool Dryer for over 10 years it was time to purchase a new one. Very happy with the design and features. Unlike most dryers, it seems to dry clothing faster than the previous one. Easy to use and very happy with it's performance.
Very quiet drier, easy lint filter to clean.
By jsm1144
from Vacaville CA
Our 6th Whirlpool appliance, washers, driers and dishwashers. In 48 years of marriage with three kids, the equipment has been given many workouts. This is the quietest drier we have ever had, we can even set it to dry during the night, and sleep! The anti-wrinkle feature is great and does work very well.My wife likes the large tub, as she is a quilter and with the large tub it can easily take bed spread size quilt.
Had this Dryer for about 6 months, very efficient, quick dry
By buckaroo
from Pembroke Ma
We have now had this dryer for about 6 months and love it. It is quicker to dry our clothes, gives us more options to use, the filter is easy to clean, and it really seems to be well built.
All around excellence
By Randmam
from Ridgewood, NJ
we chose whirlpool based upon Conser Reports and started with a washer years ago !Love them both.
Good, reliable dryer
By sparksongs
from Schaumburg IL
We bought this to pair with a new Cabrio washer and it's worked fine since . Had it almost a year with no issues. The 1 MINOR thing is that after an "Automatic Sensing" cycle, all clothes aren't always completely dry, but that seems to be an issue with every dryer, due to different fabrics in the same load. No big deal, as we are happy with it and would buy it again.
This is the worst dryer I have EVER owned. I purchased a use
By Debbie801
from New Jersey
I have to put a load through the dryer 2 or 3 times before all parts of the clothes are dry. I do not over load and I have tried many different settings. Unfortunately, parts of the clothes always come out damp.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
this gas dryer has excellent design

Humor and baseball will take center stage, along with thousands of college graduates, this weekend in Milwaukee.

Marquette University will livestream the ceremony, including Cosby's speech, at its website.

Martin Short, his alter egos get big laughs
An evening with Martin Short at the Pabst Theater on Saturday night wasn't just an evening with Martin Short.
Ed Grimley was there, Short's famed SCTV creation, with his pants as usual pulled impossibly high up to his chest. So was Franck Eggelhoffer, Short's eccentric, difficult to understand wedding planner from "Father of the Bride." »Read Full Article
MSO blends musical vocabularies of composers, orchestrators
Listening to a piece of music by one great composer that has been orchestrated by another great composer is a bit like hearing the music through that second composer's ears.
The Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra and music director Edo de Waart presented two pieces that offered just that chance on Friday evening, along with the heartbreaking Concerto for Violin and Orchestra by Alban Berg, inspired by the death of his friend's daughter. »Read Full Article
Jim DeVita paints portrait of Rothko in Forward Theater's 'Red'
Madison — Before becoming one of the last century's great artists, Mark Rothko thought hard about a career as an actor, and he habitually referred to his pictures as "dramas." In his Tony-winning "Red," John Logan brings that drama on stage.
Madison's Forward Theater has now brought "Red" to Wisconsin, where it opened Friday night under Laura Gordon's direction, in an 85-minute, intermission-free production featuring Jim DeVita as Rothko and Nate Burger as Ken, Rothko's young, fictionalized assistant. »Read Full Article(1)
Cafe 1505 in Mequon will expand its footprint and add a bar
The breakfast-and-lunch restaurant Cafe 1505, at 1505 W. Mequon Road, Mequon, plans to move the grab-and-go deli part of the business to a vacant space across the hall in East Towne Square.
The move is expected next week. It will allow the cafe to expand deli seating by about 20, up from the current five, so more guests can linger over coffee and laptops if they don't wish to sit in the full-service dining room. It also will expand its lineup of prepared foods for takeout. »Read Full Blog Post

Allison Carruth is an Associate Professor at UCLA in the English Department, Institute for Society and Genetics and Institute of the Environment and Sustainability. She is a co-founder of the collaborative public art and community engagement project called Play the LA River. From 2011-2012, she served as the Associate Director of the Science, Technology, and Society Program at Stanford University. Her research and teaching are primarily in the fields of American literature and culture (especially since 1945), food studies, new media art, science and technology studies and the environmental humanities.
The author of Global Appetites: American Power and the Literature of Food (Cambridge UP 2013), she is currently focused on two areas of research: first, the interplay of regional food cultures and transnational environmental movements since the 1980s (as seen, for example, in narratives, participatory art projects and grassroots activism related to seeds) and, second, the environmental rhetorics and material impacts of the Internet. Connecting these areas of inquiry is her current book project, Digital Utopias, Network Ecologies: Environmental Culture & Crisis in the Information Age along with a planned online publishing platform that will feature curated essays, interviews and primary materials related to the book's core questions: How have often utopian visions of digital innovation and network computing taken shape since the Cold War? How do those visions compare to contemporaneous concerns with ecology, climate change and planetary precarity? In what ways has the digital age shaped environmental storytelling and art as well as ecological science? And, finally, how can humanities research help to make visible the ecological ramifications of the Internet itself? These projects aim to bridge the gap between two divergent visions of the twenty-first-century that circulate widely in contemporary American culture: one focused on technological innovation and the other on environmental crisis.
Professor Carruth is also currently co-authoring the book Literature and Food Studies with Amy L. Tigner and conducting longer term research on avant-garde aesthetics related to food in the context of the multifaceted history of culinary experimentation. She has published widely in forums such as KCET Artbound, Modern Drama, Modern Fiction Studies, Modernism/Modernity, Parallax, Public Culture, Public Books and Resilience: A Journal of the Environmental Humanities as well as in book collections from Oxford UP and Routledge. She has also organized several major conferences and symposia, including a 2011 international conference entitled Food Justice with the Wayne Morse Center for Law and Politics.

THE LIST Alluring Luhrmann
1 "Romeo + Juliet" (1996). Australian-born director Baz Luhrmann is one of cinema's most distinctive stylists; his work is flashy, bold and occasionally throttles you with its energy. He first worked with Leonardo DiCaprio by updating the setting and look (but not the dialogue) of a Shakespeare classic -- setting the stage for "Gatsby."
2 "Moulin Rouge" (2001). Luhrmann scored his only Oscar nomination for this musical thriller, set in turn of the century (19th) France when bohemia culture is ascending. It's startling to hear moden pop songs, instead of time-appropriate ones, but the film is such an emotional rush it hardly matters. With Nicole Kidman and Ewan MacGregor.
3 "Australia" (2008). Luhrmann bit off more than he could chew with this sprawling, big-budget epic that co-starred Kidman and Hugh Jackman. It tanked so badly, that he reverted to making shorts until this weekend's "Great Gatsby."

Extreme Edge Indoor Rock Climbing
$10 for a One-Day Indoor Rock-Climbing Pass (value $20)
1 of your friends
already grabbed this deal:
Discuss this DealJoin the discussion
- Get climbing at Auckland's favourite climbing venue.
- Grab a day pass of climbing at Extreme Edge Rock Climbing for just $10.
- Choose from more than 200 routes around a variety of walls that cater for all levels of experience.
- Suitable for people aged three years and older - perfect for the whole family.
- Includes harness hire for all climbers and an intro lesson for first-timers.
Petrified of heights but keen to test yourself? Have an unhealthy attraction to large buildings - but you know your mum would kill you if you tried to climb them? Head down to Extreme Edge Rock Climbing in Panmure or Glen Eden today and practise your climbing in a professional, safe environment.
Grab yourself a one-day adventure scaling the walls at Extreme Edge Rock Climbing for just $10, including harness hire.
Extreme Edge has 60 top ropes, accessing over 200 climbing routes to climb at any one time, with another massive overhanging wall reserved for lead climbing. Mean nothing to you? Venture into Extreme Edge in Panmure or Glen Eden and learn a thing or two about rock climbing. With walls of different gradients and levels of difficulty - and, at its highest point, the size of a four-storey building - Extreme Edge caters for people of all ages, abilities and levels of experience.
We offer this and much more in the ClimbZone children's climbing area here at Extreme Edge. ClimbZone is a revolution in climbing, aimed at 3 years and up. Our 32+ individually themed climbs all have state of the art automatic belay systems that eliminate the need for a human belayer (rope holder), allowing parents (or grandparents, aunts and uncles) to join in with the climbing, or just cheer the climbers on.
All first-time climbers receive a free safety lesson from a very experienced Extreme Edge instructor. They'll teach you how to be safe at the wall, how to use their state of the art equipment, and point you in the right direction to a wall that will suit your ability best. And Extreme Edge prides themselves on safety, so you're gauranteed the utmost safety and supervision.
No membership is required, no experience is necessary, and you don't need any special gear to scale the walls either. Just turn up in sensible clothes and shoes that give you good freedom of movement. Skinny jeans are probably not a good idea (although, neither is nudity). Climbing shoes are available for hire for a very reasonable price.

Voucher Guarantee
Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used towards that service with that business for an additional 30 days.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher towards a bungy jump, for another 30 days.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.

Rated 3.2 out of 5�by 989 reviewers.
Rated 2 out of 5�by Allison22 Wouldn't buy again I had high hopes for this as the design is more desirable than the flip top where the drink spills out if not kept upright but this cooler leaks a LOT where it screws closed. There's practically no seal at all. August 25, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by JMETIM WATER JUG Great product for my son to use in football and baseball. Keeps the water cold all day long. August 24, 2016
Rated 1 out of 5�by UncleBuck2 Good price, poor quality I purchased 2 of these. One works fine and the other leaked the second we filled it. The o-ring will not stay in place that seals the flip spout to the lid. August 23, 2016
Rated 1 out of 5�by Kryder Poor design Handle comes off easily. The lid is hard to screw on and sometimes leaks. August 23, 2016

"I am your father."
Ahah~ I couldn't think of a better title, so I put that, since it was the first thing that came to my head. Anywho, I have somewhat returned! I bet you're all so excited. :D But yeah, life has started getting really busy lately, be it from constant marching band rehearsals that last all day, or just getting ready to start my final year of school. Gosh, I've grown up so fast, and even I can see how much I've changed.
I remember when I was eleven, well, I actually don't remember it all that well, haha. But anyway, I remember being absolutely obsessed with 1up, and being on here at all hours of the day, even if I had school. I had so many people to talk to, so many friends on here that I didn't have in the real world. I remember people being so surprised that I was only eleven or twelve, because they had thought that I was older. (: I've always been mature for my age, and I still am. I remember coming online, and getting excited, waiting for someone to message me, or reply to a post in one of the many clubs I was in on this website. I would talk to Nemesis_Enforcer, c_war, KrimsonKross, fainalfantasy, and so many other amazing people every single day. I'm kind of sad thinking about how I talk to literally none of these people anymore. I've been so busy with my studies, and getting ready for college, that I've forgotten how much I've missed everyone.
I kind of just wanted to make these people that I still care about and miss so much know that I'm still here. :) But that little girl that joined this site so many years ago, has been long gone. I'm still the same "Sammie", but I've grown, matured, and learned so much since then. I'm so much more intelligent, and I've gone through so many things. I'm stronger, and I've gained so much more control of my emotions, aha. I'm just letting you guys know.. that I'm still around, maybe not as much, but I am. (: I'm getting ready to go to college, guys! I remember when I was in sixth grade, and now I'm going into my final year of High School! I still don't know what I want to do, though. It's either the Culinary field, or Education.. OR Medical. :P But yeah, I really miss you guys..
I appreciate anyone who has taken their time to read this.. It's actually probably one of my longest blog thingies ever! I don't know, haha~ Well, I should be asleep right now, since I actually have marching band in a few hours, and a football game to perform at later tonight, but I just have too much on my mind, and I figured I could vent here. Even though I haven't really done that in a long time, and I could just as easily do it on facebook, I feel like.. this is home.
I love you all, and I miss you! I have a phone, with unlimited texting, ahah. If anyone wants to contact me, AND STAY in contact with me, I'll give you my number~
Until then, adieu and au revoir~ je t'aime.

I brought it to a jeweler two months later and the jeweler informed me the ring was NOT .5 carat and was only .38 carat!!!!!!! It was stamped .38 inside the band only visible under magnification. The problems only get worse from here. I went to return the ring and it was just outside the return date. After some ranting I got them to allow me store credit towards another ring. The new one was a 1 carat bridal set. This rings had all the tags with all the information.. Sounds good right? WRONG!! This ring was an "invisible setting ring".
My fiance brought the new ring in for a cleaning after two weeks of owning it. They cleaned the ring using an ultra sound machine. When the ring was handed back to her, she quickly noticed that it was missing a diamond in the invisible setting. JC penney agreed to have the ring repaired since it broke in their machine. A few weeks later we get the ring back. Everything looks ok. 10 days after having the ring repaired, another stone started to lift out of the setting!! We went back and they agreed again to have the ring repaired.
After another couple weeks the ring came back NOT REPAIRED!!! They agreed to send it back out again!!!! 2 weeks later the ring comes back with a notice stating that It cannot be repaired!! At this point I am furious, it's been months and she's only been able to wear the ring for a couple weeks. I want a full and complete refund. After all the fraud on the first ring and the junk quality on the second ring, I feel I am entitled to a full refund. They want to exchange the ring instead.They claim its outside the return period! WELL IT BROKE IN YOUR CLEANING MACHINE WITHIN THE RETURN PERIOD!!!!
You're the ones that sent it out for repair for weeks on end only to have it still broken! Well, the ring they want to exchange it with is supposed to be the same exact one. Except the color on the one they want to exchange it with is a "K" and I BOUGHT A "J". Also the the one they want to exchange it with has obvious inclusions everywhere! This is unacceptable, after screwing me over on two rings, I don't want anymore junk from here. Finally after multiple complains to the BBB and to the corporate office, I got another JC PENNEY store in ROCHESTER to grant me my refund!!!!
Worse of all, the person that sold me the invisible setting ring informed me AFTER IT HAD BROKE that all invisible setting rings have problems!!!! Thanks for telling me after I BOUGHT IT!!!!!! You could have told me when I was looking at it, but you'd rather lie to me and say how great the ring is when you know fully that the ring is going to break in the near future. THIS IS JUST PLAIN FRAUD!!!!!!!! DO NOT BUY JEWELRY FROM JC PENNEY! THEY WILL LIE TO YOU ABOUT THE SIZE OF THE RING AND THEY WILL LIE ABOUT THE QUALITY! Then they try to keep your money after they get done screwing you!
