Paradiso Politics Quotes
How we cite our quotes: Citations follow this format: (Canto.Line). We used Allen Mandelbaum's translation.
Quote #4
[Justinian]: "Now you can judge those I condemned above,
and judge how such men have offended, have
become the origin of all your evils.
For some oppose the universal emblem
with yellow lilies; others claim that emblem
for party: it is hard to see who is worse.
Let Ghibellines pursue their undertakings
beneath another sign, for those who sever
this sign and justice are bad followers." (Par. VI, 97-105)
Political glory can hold the seeds of its own destruction. Here, Justinian points out how the dueling factions of the Guelphs and Ghibellines came into existence. Perhaps even worse, the Ghibellines tried to claim the Roman empire's "universal emblem [of the Eagle]" as their own, when their interests really ran opposite to those of the Empire's.
Quote #5
[Justinian]: "This little planet is adorned with spirits,
whose acts were righteous, but who acted for
the honor and the fame that they would gain;
and when desires tend toward earthly ends,
then, so deflected, rays of the true love
mount toward the life above with lesser force." (Par. VI, 112-118)
One of the faults of society is that it puts a premium on glory and fame. For those with such petty motivations as glory of fame, the best they can hope for is to end up in the Second heaven of Mercury. They cannot ascend any higher.
Quote #6
He [Charles Martel] added: "Tell me, would a man on earth
be worse if he were not a citizen?"
"Yes," I replied, "and here I need no proof."
"Can there be citizens if men below
are not diverse, with diverse duties? No,
if what your master writes is accurate." (Par. VIII, 115-120)
Charles Martel delineates one of the founding tenets of Paradiso here. First of all, society is good for man, who is by nature, a social animal. Naturally, large groups of people tend to diversify, having special interests and skills in a variety of things. This holds true in heaven just as on earth; each of the planets caters to a specific type of skill (studying theology, fighting for God, and ruling justly – to name just a few). Even more importantly, the blessed souls' identity is based on a concept of sameness-but-difference. They are all similar in that they've learned to align their wills with God, yet they don't all become one mindless mass of humanity; instead, God allows them to maintain their individualism, as citizens of heaven; they therefore maintain their own unique identities.

Right, I'm at my wits end :)
I've been trying to post images using the new [gallery] shortcode into my blog. When I first tried this I noticed all the images appeared in 1 column... so I read up on some docs, and added the columns="3" parameter to the shortcode. Bad news is, it didn't do anything.
Regardless of what I try I can't get 3 columns to appear, I've saved, re-sorted, edited, re-saved, read every doc, and even checked the code in media.php for errors. They won't appear in 3 columns.
I can't find anyone with a similar problem, and don't have sufficient kmowledge of WP to figure this one out.
Can anyone tell me;
Does your template have any bearing on how a [gallery] is displayed? (I'm using Decayed).
Is there any way to override the default columns of 1, with 3? (I've seen the code snippet in media.php on line 384)
Any other idea what could be doing it?
Thanks in advance,

When I checked into the Hotel I asked the night manager to let me look at a room to see if it was as nice as the outside appearance of the hotel, and he gave me the key to room 205, it was a nice room, but after I payed for the room he gave me a key to room 210, because he said it was already rented out for the next night. I asked him to let me go check out this room 217 also,to find the room on the backside of the building in a dark WOODED area, only to find that the windows will NOT lock, so I went down and asked the manager to move to the front side of the building and he moved me to room 217, which was not clean the floor needed vacuuming and there was a dirty ring in the tub.
The very next morning which was going to be our check out day, after having gone fishing 8:00 pm on thursday afternoon until 6:00AM Friday morning, at 10:30 in the morning the housekeepers were BEATING on the door I said just a minute,and I called to the front desk to ask for an extension the girl(Carla) told me she could give me one until 11:30,30 minutes past check out time,then she called me right back and said extensions were for emergencies only not for me to lay up in the room and sleep. I jumped up and went down stairs because it was not even 11:00(check out time),and I asked to speak to the manager and she told me that the manager was gone and that she was in charge and she would give me 5 minutes to get out and she called the police.
My problem is not with her not being able to give an extention but with UNPROFESSIONAL way that she handled the situation. I travel a lot,and this is the first time that I've ever been kicked out of a room, because some lazy housekeeper didn't want to work 5 minutes over.I WILL NEVER EVER STAY IN A CHOICE HOTEL EVER AGAIN!!!! I am going to discourage everyone I know from staying in a choice hotel.

The health department said Friday that the Suffolk County resident in her 60s was hospitalized but has been discharged.
Health officials said in August that a Norfolk County man in his 30s and a Plymouth County man in his 70s had the illness.
There were 33 West Nile cases in the state last year, and at least one death.

Building a dynamic blacklist with Netfilter's Recent module
Netfilter's Recent module builds a temporary blacklist to keep intruders off your network.
When an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) recognizes an attack, it issues a strict "keep out" order to block the intruder's access to services. Unfortunately, other systems on the network might not benefit from this block. The Recent module by Netfilter dynamically updates the firewall access rules to create a temporary "bad guy" list. You can then configure the firewall rules so that an IP address that breaks a rule is temporarily prevented from any form of access. Recent also comes with special features for fighting port scans, and you can combine the Recent module with an external application such as Snort to create a fast and effective framework for detecting and closing out network attacks.

AbstractFunctionalized pentacene derivatives continue to provide unique materials for organic semiconductor applications. Although oligomers and polymers based on pentacene building blocks remain quite rare, recent synthetic achievements have provided a number of examples with varied structural motifs. This review highlights recent work in this area and, when possible, contrasts the properties of defined-length pentacene oligomers to those of mono- and polymeric systems.

Skill Level Beginner
Photoshop enables you to apply a variety of different preferences based on of course your own personal preferences. That means you can essentially configure the way Photoshop operates based on the way you prefer to work. Let's take a look at some of the basic options available in a Preferences dialog. We'll start off by choosing Edit and then Preferences followed by General, that will bring up the Preferences dialog, which as you can see at first glance, has a lot of controls and actually this is just the beginning of it.
Over on the left side of the Preferences dialog you'll see that there is a list of individual sections of various preferences. Now I'm not going to put you to sleep by listing out every single option that's available, but I will take you through some of the preferences that I think are most useful. We'll start off on the general page, and here there aren't too many things that I feel are really critical, I leave most of these set at their default values. One thing that I do think is helpful is to leave the Use Shift Key for tool Switch option turned on.
You may already be aware that the tools on the toolbox, have keyboard shortcuts. For example the B key on your keyboard, will access the Brush tool. But also found, below the Brush tool, on the same button is the Pencil tool and the B key is also the keyboard shortcut for the Pencil tool. So if you press the letter B you'll get whichever of those tools was most recently used. But you can switch between those tools by holding the Shift key, while pressing the letter B. The reason I prefer leaving this option turned on is that I then explicitly switch between tools. Let's assume that you're using the Brush tool and you press the letter B, because you want to use the Brush tool.
Well, the Brush tool was already active, so now you've just switched to the Pencil tool, when you didn't intend to. So a minor little issue but one that can be helpful. Another setting that I have an opinion on is the Zoom Resizes Windows option. What that means is if you have a floating window and you zoom in or out, the window for the image will also resize. I don't generally have floating windows anyway, but I do find the resizing of those windows a little bit annoying, so I leave that option turned off. Most of the other settings on the general page here, are relatively self explanatory or, not really something you need to worry about when you're first getting started with Photoshop. I'll switch to the interface page, and this one I think, is perhaps more helpful, because the interface is how you interact with Photoshop on a daily basis. We can adjust the color theme, switching between a darker version, or a lighter version, for example.
Or even a relatively bright version, I generally prefer the second option which is a little bit dark, but that way the interface doesn't seem to get in the way of my photos. We can also specify some of the color settings for the standard and full screen modes, as well as determine whether or not we want a drop shadow for our photos in those screen modes. If you're not really keen on the use of tabs in Photoshop, you can also turn off the Open Documents As Tabs checkbox. That will cause all images to open then as floating windows. You might also want to turn on the Show tool Tips checkbox. That will cause a tool Tip to appear if you hold your mouse over a control. And that tool Tip will give you some information about the control that you're pointing to.
I frankly find these tool tips a little bit distracting so I prefer to turn this option off but it can be helpful again especially as you are just getting started with Photoshop. I'll switch to the file handling page and here we don't have to worry about too many of the settings but there are a couple that I want to mention to you. One is the Ask Before Saving Layered TIFF Files option. I prefer to have that option turned on so that if you're saving a TIFF image and there are layers, you'll get the TIFF options dialog where you can adjust the settings for those layers. I also prefer to set my maximize PSD and PSB file compatibility option to always.
The only drawback to having this option turned on is that it does increase the overall file size of your images. However, it also ensures that many applications are able to show you a preview of the image. In addition, this setting is required if you're going to use Adobe Photoshop Lightroom to manage your images. You can't import PSD files into Lightroom unless maximized compatibility has been turned on. The performance section obviously relates to the overall performance of Photoshop. These settings are a little bit advanced and so I wouldn't worry too much about them when you're just getting started with Photoshop.
I will suggest that it's a good idea to increase the memory allocation for Photoshop generally to somewhere around 75% of the available memory. The history in cash, you don't need to worry about too much, however I do suggest that you increase the number of history states. If you need to undo something that you did a little while ago, more than twenty steps ago this can be a little bit frustrating and so I will generally increase this value to somewhere around a 100. This doesn't consume a huge amount of memory and it helps to ensure that you can undo tasks as needed that will be able to step back enough to really solve any issues that you might run up against if you've made a mistake working on your image.
The scratch disk settings are only applicable if you have multiple hard drives installed inside of your computer. I wouldn't worry to much about scratch disks if your just getting started with Photoshop, but it is worth exploring later in order to help optimize the performance of Photoshop. And the graphic processor settings enables some really advanced and pretty cool features in Photoshop. My recommendation is to leave the use graphics processor option turned on. You don't really need to worry about the advanced settings options. However if you find that Photoshop seems to be crashing or you're getting some odd behaviors you might try turning this option off as a troubleshooting mechanism.
Under cursors there are a couple of option I recommend here. First off I recommend for painting cursors that you use the normal brush tip shape option. That will give you a circle for example, representing the circular brush, or the shape of the brush itself. I also like turning on the show cross hair and brush tip option so you can see a cross hair in the center of the brush. For the other cursors, for example for the Eye Dropper tool, I prefer the precise option. The standard option gives you a cute little mouse icon, but it doesn't exactly make it clear where you should click with the mouse.
The precise option gives you essentially a target that you can use, making things much, much easier. Next I'll switch to the transparency and gamut settings, which, frankly, I don't think you need to worry about at all. The default settings, generally speaking, are perfectly fine. Units and Rulers is relatively self explanatory. You can choose whether you want the rulers to be in inches or centimeters, for example. But overall, you should be perfectly fine with the default settings here in most cases. For guides, grids, and slices, this just determines the viewing options for guides, grids, and slices of course, and the defaults are generally fine, but you can feel free to fine tune things as you see fit.
Plug in's, you really don't need to worry about at all. Rarely will you ever need to adjust anything here. And the type options only relate to type, of course, text that you can add to your images, and so you don't generally have to worry too much about these options, the default's I think are perfectly fine. So, that takes care of all of the preference settings that I think you need to worry about. You might explore some of the other options here. There are obviously many, many settings you can choose from so, exploring them can be a little bit helpful. But generally speaking, I think you'll find that the default settings are more or less just fine and the others are just a matter of personal preference. But of course, setting things up the way you prefer can make your experience in Photoshop that much more enjoyable.
With all those settings established, I'll go ahead and click OK and I'm ready to continue working in Photoshop.

Twenty-ninth in the world rankings, he currently leads the Rolex FEI World Cup table with 39 points after four qualifiers.
Considering that on average 40 points are needed to qualify for the final, it is difficult to imagine what could stop him from booking his place in Gothenburg next April, especially since his stable is so strong.
Should there be any problems with Action-Breaker, Alvarez Moya can always call on Carlo 273, the horse recently bought from Britain's Nick Skelton.
And if both these horses are tired, the Spaniard is able to introduce -year-old stallion Zipper, as he did in Verona to win the World Cup Grand Prix ahead of the likes of Marco Kutscher and Cash or Meredith Michaels-Beerbaum and Bella Donna.
Alvarez Moya showed his talent at an early ago: he was European champion at 16 and joined the Spanish team aged barely 20 in 2005.
He rode his first World Equestrian Games the following year, while his friends were still competing on the young riders' circuit.
He can even afford the luxury of finishing 18th, in front of no less than Rolf-Göran Bengtsson and Eric Lamaze.
And with such horses in his stable, the indicators are that his future is bright. He may not even reach his 30th birthday without winning a title.

I called the NordicTrack customer service number and explained what had happened. I was told that this is a very common problem that happens during the shipment process. The representative said she would send the replacement part immediately and have one of their repairmen schedule a time to come fix it.
The part came 3 days later. Today, 3 1/2 weeks after the part arrived, the repairman finally showed up, only to discover that the wrong part was sent. He now has to order the correct part which will take 5-7 more days, and he wasn't sure when he would be able to schedule another time to come back. I had to take time off from work to be at my house for the repair. Now, I will have to take more time off the next time he comes to repair it!!
I notified NordicTrack about the first delay in getting this equipment repaired and told them that I was very unhappy with their equipment. I never received a response, not even an apology.
NordicTrack is suppose to have one of the top of the line exercise equipment lines, but after less than 1 week of use, it broke. It is now over a month since the purchase and I still am not able to use it, and it looks like it could be another 2 weeks before I will be able to use it.
The repairman told me that he sees this problem all of the time. If this is true you would think that NordicTrack would do something to correct the problem with their shipping and the construction of their product!!
At the very least, when a company has a problem with one of their products, they should contact the consumer and apologize or offer some type of compensation for their trouble.

The presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan are traveling to Russia's Black Sea resort of Sochi on August 8 to meet individually with Russian President Vladimir Putin and possibly gather for a trilateral meeting.
The visits of Armenian President Serzh Sarkisian and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev to Sochi come amid heightened tensions between the two Caucasus nations over the Nagorno-Karabakh region, where there has been sporadic fighting for days.
At least 20 people have been killed.
Azerbaijan claims Nagorno-Karabakh as part of its territory, but the region has been occupied and administered by pro-Armenian forces for some 20 years.
On his official Twitter feed, Aliyev on August 7 said "we will restore our territorial integrity either by peaceful or military means," adding that, "The war is not over. Only the first stage of it is. But the second stage may start too."
The Armenian side has expressed its readiness to hold a three-way meeting during Sarkisian and Aliyev's two-day visit to Sochi, but such a meeting has still not been confirmed.

Suppose Σ is an alphabet containing all the symbols necessary to describe numeric functions, so that a primitive recursive derivation is a string over Σ. Suppose in addition that there is an algorithm capable of deciding, for every string x over Σ,whether x is a legitimate primitive recursive derivation of a function of one variable. Then in principle we can consider the strings in Σ* in canonical order, and for each one that is a primitive recursive derivation of a function f from 𝒩 to 𝒩, we can include f in a list of primitive recursive functions of one variable. The resulting list f0, f1, ... , will contain duplicates, because functions can have more than one primitive recursive derivation, but it contains every primitive recursive function of one variable.
a. With these assumptions, show that there is a computable total function from 𝒩 to 𝒩 that is not primitive recursive.
b. Every μ-recursive function from 𝒩 to 𝒩 has a "μ-recursive derivation." What goes wrong when you try to adapt your argument in part (a) to show that there is a computable function from 𝒩 to 𝒩 that is not μ-recursive?

As part of an in-theatre Urgent Operational Requirement (UOR) program, QinetiQ has integrated a civil satellite communications system into a number of the UK MoD's Joint Helicopter Force (JHC) assets. The requirement was to deliver beyond line of sight (BLOS) voice communications capabilities that allow deployed JHC assets to simply and efficiently communicate with operational headquarters.
In just eight to 12 weeks (depending on the platform) the company, working closely with the Identification and Communication Equipment (ICE) Integrated Project Team (IPT), went from the initial meeting to delivering this operational solution. The various stages included the initial feasibility study, investigating technical options, then recommending and deploying the optimum BLOS technology to meet the capability enhancement requirements across the identified aircraft variants.
The program brought together QinetiQ's Malvern, UK-based communications design teams and engineering staff with its system evaluation services/flight engineering services personnel based at Boscombe Down, UK.
Together they evaluated the current capabilities and roles of the platforms and looked at the various commercially available systems on the market. This study determined that the maximum value would be realized by using a civil satcom-based solution.
The company was also tasked to develop and deliver a ground-based system, based on the same satcom technology, to provide in-theatre end-to-end connectivity. QinetiQ also took responsibility for the design and build of these units, including sourcing all ancillary components.

hi all,
It's been awhile since I posted. I'm not a WordPress guru, security expert, developer or anything close to that.
But I've been a WordPress user since 1.3 and for the record, I haven't come across any platform that rivals the design and ease WordPress provides. :)
Anyhow, just curious about these particular things in RC and major release announcements.
1. no mention of security enhancements and/or a paid 3rd party security audit of the core WordPress codebase and bundled plugins/themes
2. no paid security bounties? I'm going to be partial here, but I've been a Menalto Gallery user since 1.4 also and they pay folks to find these security bugs, recently, paid out $1000s (the platform is not related to WordPress but just making a point bounties, paid bounties)
I do understand there are dozens of "security companies specializing in WordPress security" and not to mention, freelancers. It looks like there sure is money to be made there. :)

Dear Friend,
In order to transfer out (USD 12.6 M) Twelve million Six Hundred United States Dollars) from National Westminster Bank UK. I have the courage to ask you if you are capable, reliable and honest to assist us with this important business believing that you will never let me down either now or in future.
I am Mrs. Nancy Brooks, the Chief Auditor of National Westminster Bank Uk (NATWEST BANK). There is an account opened in this bank in 1998 and since then nobody has operated on this account again. After going through some old files in the records, I discovered that if I do not remit this money out urgently, it would be forfeited for nothing. The owner of this account is Mr. Smith B.Andreas, a foreigner, and a miner at Kruger gold co., a geologist by profession, and he died since 1998.He opened a non-residential US dollar bank account. Since then no other person knows about this account or any thing concerning it, the account has no other beneficiary and my investigation proved to me as well that this company does not know anything about this account and the amount involved is (USD 12.6M) Twelve Million, six Hundred United States Dollars million dollars. I want to first transfer US$6,000,000:00 Six million United States Dollars from this money into a
safe foreigners account abroad before the rest is transfered, but I don't have any foreign partner.
I am only contacting you as a foreigner because this money cannot be approved to any other person other than the next of kin to Mr. Smith B.Andreas.I know that this message will come to you as a surprise as we do not know ourselves before now, We will then sign an agreement, but be sure that it is real and a genuine business transaction. I only got your contact address from International Business Directory, with believe in God that you will never let me down in this proposed business. You are the only person that I have contacted in this regard, so please reply urgently so that I
will inform you of the next step to take immediately.
Send also your private telephone and fax number including the full details of the account to be used for the deposit if possible with zero credit. I want us to meet face to face or sign a binding agreement to bind us together so that you can receive this money into a any reliable account of your choice where the fund will be safe. And I will fly to your country for withdrawal, sharing and other investments opportunities as well. I am contacting you because of the need to involve a foreigner with foreign account and foreign beneficiary. I need your full co-operation to make this work, because the management is ready to approve this payment to any
foreigner who has correct information of this account, which I will provide to you later.
Furthermore, with my position now in the office I can transfer this money to any foreigner's reliable account, which you can provide with assurance that this money will be intact pending my physical arrival in your country for sharing. I will destroy all documents of transaction immediately we receive this money leaving no trace to any place. You can also come to discuss with
me face to face after which I will make this remittance in your presence and two of us will fly to your country at least two days ahead of the money going into the account. I will apply for annual leave immediately I hear from you that you are ready to act and receive this fund in your account. I will use my position and influence to effect legal approvals and onward
transfer of this money to your account with appropriate clearance forms from the ministries and foreign exchange departments. At the conclusion of this business, you will be given 30% of the total amount, 65% will be for me, while 5% will be for expenses both parties might have incurred during the course of this transaction.
Lastly, if you are interested in assisting us in this transaction, kindly responds to my principal partner Dr.Donald Duke at (firstname.lastname@example.com) Telephone number (+44 704 011 0427 or +44
704 010 8365) or by fax at +44 707-505-5580.
I look forward to your earliest reply
Mrs. Nancy Brooks

Nursemaid Elbow (cont.)
Nursemaid Elbow Causes
Patient Comment Read 1 Comment
Nursemaid elbow results from a sudden pulling force applied to the extended arm of the child. Due to the relative strength of the adult in comparison to the weakness of the child's supportive annular ligament, the applied force may not seem strong to the parents and they may not realize an injury has occurred.

I just got my diploma from Woodfield HighSchool, and I found out they were scamming people. They charged my credit card $152.49 when It was said the charge was only $103. I should have listened to my son because he told me they got an F rating with the BBB. I went to the site and sure enough he was right and they are NOT accredited with the Dept. Of Education. I filed a complaint with them and am waiting for a response. I also spoke with A person at the school and when I questioned them, they were trying to tell me what they probably thought I wanted to hear.
Word of caution everyone. For those looking for A high school diploma online, make sure to check the school out first and get all the info you can on them. Also make sure they are accredited with the Dept. of Education. Live and Learn right?

At long last, the Minnesota Supreme Court has declared Al Franken the victor in the state's remarkably tight and seemingly endless U.S. Senate race. The comedian-turned-politician won the almost eight-month-long battle against Republican incumbent Norm Coleman, who conceded Tuesday, by 312 votes, giving the Democrats a filibuster-proof 60-seat majority in the Senate to add to their comfortable advantage in the House.
The Democrats now have firm control over Congress and the White House and no one to blame if they fail to reward voters with comprehensive health care reform and the other goodies they have promised.
Here's hoping Franken is as enlightened in his Senate career as he was on radio and in print. Because he's good enough, he's smart enough and at least 312 more people favored him over the other guy.
The Minnesota Supreme Court on Tuesday declared Democrat Al Franken the winner of a tight U.S. Senate race over Republican Norm Coleman, which should give Democrats the 60-seat majority they need to overcome procedural obstacles and push through their agenda.
Coleman has said in published reports he is unlikely to appeal the state court's decision to the federal courts. Under state law, the court's decision gives Franken the right to occupy the seat, which has been up for grabs since last November's election.
Minnesota Republican Governor Tim Pawlenty has said he will certify the election winner based on what the state court decides.

Greenpeace launches a new Rainbow Warrior
by Alessandra Suardi on 21 Oct 2011
The new Rainbow Warrior III .. .
At a ceremony in Berne-Motzen, Germany, Greenpeace launched the third version of its protest vessel the Rainbow Warrior.
Purpose built as a campaigning vessel, the Rainbow Warrior carries state-of-the-art communications equipment, two fast boats and can carry a helicopter. Her unique A-frame masts carry 1260m2 of sail, helping keep her carbon footprint to a minimum and making her one of the most environmentally friendly vessels of her class.
'The new Rainbow Warrior is the perfect ship with which navigate the perfect storm of ecological, economic and democratic crises lashing our world', said Kumi Naidoo, Greenpeace International Executive Director, at the ceremony.
'With an international crew on board, the Rainbow Warrior will confront environmental criminals across the world, investigate and expose destructive activities, but perhaps most of all will provide a beacon of hope and an inspiration to action wherever she goes.'
From the moment, forty years ago, when our first campaign to stop a nuclear weapons test in the Aleutian islands set out, Greenpeace has sailed the sea –often in old, rusting, borrowed, or repurposed ships – the new Rainbow Warrior is its first purpose built vessel.
Greenpeace ships have helped put activists in front of harpoons to save whales, stopped barrels of toxic and radioactive waste from being dumped at sea, blocked shipments of illegal timber and put an end to nuclear testing. Many of the greatest environmental victories have been won with the support of the Rainbow Warrior and other Greenpeace ships.
Melina Laboucan-Massimo, the Godmother of the new Rainbow Warrior, quoted the Cree Indian prophecy from which the ship got its name:
'There will come a time when the Earth grows sick and when it does a tribe will gather from all the cultures of the world who believe in deeds and not words. They will work to heal it... they will be known as the 'Warriors of the Rainbow'.'
The construction of the Rainbow Warrior was paid for by over 100,000 individual donations. Donors were able to sponsor specific parts of the vessel and items of equipment.
The ship will begin life with a thank-you tour of the European coast before making its first ocean crossing to begin active campaigning in the Americas.
