Read an Excerpt
How do we know things? How do we decide
that something is true? Since its appearance four hundred years ago,
science has tried to answer this question by focusing on the physical
elements of the universe. Many scientists now believe that physical
phenomena alone are real and that we know this is true through
objective scientific investigation. We are told that (1) the universe
is exclusively physical, (2) this is a proven fact, and (3) we learn
all of the important things about reality by virtue of science—period.
what was just described is a myth. It was never arrived at
scientifically. Rather, it resulted from a process that automatically
filtered out contradictory evidence. In certain areas of science,
physics in particular, this exclusively physical view of reality was
brought into question a century ago. Even so, the consequences of
considering nonmaterial phenomena as real are upsetting to many
scientists. Science, after all, distinguished itself from religion by
denying nonphysical explanations of phenomena, such as miracles and
demons. Therefore, even as scientific theories based on nonmaterial
hypotheses find application in technology we use daily, their
implications for our understanding of reality are generally ignored.
For example, photocells and computer chips were developed from
scientific theories that don't jibe with a purely physical view of
reality. We use and accept them, but we don't often explore their
scientific basis and its implications.
Part 1 of this
volume—"What's Wrong with This Picture?"—is a detailed deconstruction
of this materialistic myth. Science was born in the largely Christian
world of Renaissance Europe; therefore, it is not surprising that even
as science negated many Christian beliefs, it was unavoidably wedded to
basic tenets of Christian theology. Over time, as it gained strength
and credibility, science itself took on aspects of a religious dogma.
Burdened with such entrenched beliefs yet beholden to its experimental
method—which sometimes produced evidence that contradicted its
materialistic outlook—science developed a split personality. Since the
turn of the twentieth century, when the new physics upset the apple
cart, this schizophrenia has hobbled science in its quest for a
thorough understanding of the nature and origins of the universe.
source of this problem from the very beginning was the scientific
attitude toward the mind. Since mental phenomena, such as
consciousness, thoughts, images, and emotions, were not physical, the
mind had to be either ignored or regarded as a property of matter.
Because nonmaterial phenomena were unacceptable, they couldn't be
studied scientifically. By the same token, the mind could not "exist"
unless it was reduced to something purely physical, the "gray matter"
of the brain. That was the obvious solution. Nevertheless, by the early
twentieth century it was becoming clear to physicists that certain
properties of matter itself depend on the role of the observer—mind and
matter are not independent from each other. Furthermore, present-day
attempts by neuroscience to pin down the mind as purely physical are
riddled with problems. Could it be that both mind and matter are real,
part of nature, and intimately interconnected?
In part 2,
"Consciousness: Completing the Picture," we discover that contemplative
spiritual traditions have long been studying this problem and have come
up with some refreshing hypotheses. By accepting the validity of
nonmaterial phenomena—the mind especially—they suggest we may arrive at
a complete and harmonious view of reality. Science has made a deep
exploration into the material nature of phenomena. Contemplatives have
studied the mind that observes phenomena and that does the
investigating. Conclusions drawn from both of these traditions point to
a middle ground, a universe of interdependence between mind and
matter. That suggests science and spirituality might work together in a
complementary fashion to arrive at a more embracing view.
do scientists, with their rigorous methodologies, have enough in common
with contemplatives for the two to collaborate successfully? We shall
see that in fact a number of spiritual traditions, particularly those
from Asia, do have rigorous standards of objectivity for exploring the
mind. Although this is not widely known in the West, meditation has
been developed over millennia into a precision instrument of
observation. The aims of this contemplative science may be
spiritual—release from psychological suffering, attaining
enlightenment, inner peace, and so forth—but the means of accomplishing
those ends require a clear understanding of all phenomena. Here a human
being is not seen as a stranger in an alien universe but as a full
participant, intimately interconnected with everything. His or her
achievement of inner freedom therefore requires a deep understanding of
the whole. This picture is further elaborated in part 3 with a
description of one such science of consciousness, from Indo-Tibetan
Buddhism. Here is a view that may illuminate even some of the most
exciting current theories from physics about the origins of the
universe. Where the informed scientific imagination can merely describe
such possibilities, meditators claim they directly experience the
creative forces at play in an ultimate reality accessible to highly
refined states of consciousness.
There is, and always has been, a
single underlying basis common to both science and spirituality. This
common ground—that which makes us human—is the mind. It is to human
minds that myriad phenomena appear, and it is the human mind that has
explored nature, beheld scientific discoveries, and formulated theories
to account for them. But just as spirituality often goes too far,
imbuing the mind, spirit, or soul with a mystery that clouds our
understanding, so has science also gone too far in stripping the mind
down to the bare chassis of the brain. This volume was written to help
balance our understanding of the mind, showing that it is indeed
wondrous, but that its extraordinary qualities can be understood
without sacrificing our intelligence.

As a cooperative lending institution, we have members who come from all walks of life, and we are thankful for the diversity that this brings to our association. But, toward the end of every year, we are reminded of one group in particular that serves our country in a very sacrificial manner, and we are proud to be able to serve them in return.
Veterans Day, which was just a few weeks ago, is more than just a holiday away from work. It is a day when we honor all those who served in our nation's military, with so many making the ultimate sacrifice. It is a day with roots that go all the way back to World War I, when the United States sent more than 2 million troops to Europe over 19 months. That war ended with the implementation of an armistice between the Allies and Germany on Nov. 11, 1918.
At that time, many soldiers were young farm people, and when they returned, they wanted to farm and purchase land for themselves. The local Farm Credit cooperatives were there to help them buy that land. Since then, millions more men and women have fought to protect our nation's freedom. Coming home after serving your country and trying to build a new career can be difficult, but rural America remains a great place to start. Even today, over 40 percent of those who serve in the U.S. military come from rural communities, although just 16 percent of the American population lives in rural areas.
Overall, the Farm Credit System is proud to support organizations and programs that help our newest generation of veterans. On a more local level, we have always had many borrowers, employees and family members of employees who are veterans. In Landscapes magazine last year, we included an article about a borrower, Captain Lee Stuckey, who started A HERO Foundation to help veterans cope with the stresses of military life.
Farm Credit was created during the days of World War I, so we have been serving veterans for as long as we've been around. Appreciating the service of veterans and in turn providing service to them is not limited to one day a year at Alabama Ag Credit. If you, or someone you know, is a veteran or current member of the U.S. military, please let us know. We'll be happy help guide them in making a home or a career in rural America.
Thank you to all of our vets — and best wishes to our customers and our friends for a very happy holiday season.

Gaiman's new book a beautiful collision of memory, mortality
If you ask me, I'll tell you that "The Ocean at the End of the Lane" is Neil Gaiman's portrait of the artist as a young man. With this book, Gaiman has crafted an achingly beautiful memoir of an imagination and a spellbinding story that sets three women at the center of everything.
If you ask me, I'll tell you that this is not only a creation myth (of imagination, of a meaningful life, of the universe), but also a wonderful fairy tale with some truly creepy moments. Set in the English countryside of Gaiman's childhood, the story's middle-aged narrator (an artist) flees a family funeral, retreating "toward a house that had not existed for decades." He ends up at the pond at the end of the lane where he first met the Hempstock women (Old Mrs. Hempstock, Ginnie and Lettie), a trinity of females who recall when "the moon was made," who can "snip fragments of time," and who are "not in the fabric of the universe," but "outside of it." »Read Full Article

Yiyun Li's 'Kinder Than Solitude' asks if there's life after Tiananmen Square
Born in 1972, Yiyun Li was a teenager in Beijing when China trained its guns on its own people in Tiananmen Square.
Reflecting much later on that nightmarish year of 1989, Li recalled how it forever destroyed her close friendship with a schoolmate, because there was no way for Li to prove that she wasn't among those who had turned him in, for daring to disclose what he'd witnessed. In the dystopian China in which she was raised, Li could look and feel guilty even though she was innocent. "One does not have to steal," she noted, "to feel like a thief." »Read Full Article

Chic Cafe serves classics of the South
It can be hard to find Southern dishes downtown, and it still might be hard unless you know just where to look: Tucked on the lower level of 770 N. Jefferson St. is Chic Cafe, a fast-casual restaurant that opened in December with a menu mostly of Southern dishes.
It's next to Shah Jee's, the perpetually popular curry and dal buffet, in what's something of a mini food court — two restaurants with counter service and shared seating in the atrium. Chic Cafe has menu items that are made to order, like a po' boy of cornmeal-crusted shrimp with fries ($9.95), and those take a bit of time, but it has a quick-service buffet as well. »Read Full Article

HourlyLess than 30 hrs/week
I'm looking for someone to build out the foundation of a JavaScript game engine specifically for card games (e.g. Poker, B.S., War, Hearts). I'd prefer the card game engine be built on top of Crafty, but any mature JavaScript gaming engine will probably be fine (after running it by me).
* Able to play and complete the following games: War, BS, and Egyptian Ratscrew, with the possibility of additional games relatively easily. Individual game logic and game engine should be separate, of course.
* Only needs to work client-side -- no server-side work is required or expected (that will come later)
* Visually, it doesn't need to look great, but using public domain or Creative Commons photos for cards instead of colored rectangles would greatly add to the visual polish of the end result.
Contractor requirements:
* Experience developing game engines
* Experience in web development, including knowledge of best practices
Server-side experience with technologies that would enable online versions of this engine is a plus, though not required.
To apply, please submit any websites (live, if possible) relevant to the contractor requirements provided, as well as any previous relevant code you're allowed to and comfortable with sharing, for review. I'd also like to hear what your first steps would be if granted the contract.

Dear Tom and Ray: I am an old-timer and have driven manual transmissions since the late '60s. In those days, I was told that it is not good to leave the clutch depressed when at a stoplight, as it would prematurely wear out the throw-out bearing.
I am now driving a 2009 Mini Cooper with a six-speed manual transmission, and I'm wondering if this old rule still applies. Or has modern technology improved to the point where this is no longer an issue? Thank you. – Joe
Tom: No. Modern technology has not improved to the point where this is not an issue.
Ray: In other words, it's still an issue.
Tom: In fact, back in the late '60s, it was far easier to change a release (aka throw-out) bearing when one went bad. Many simple, rear-wheel-drive cars from that era had transmissions that you could take out with half a dozen bolts.
Ray: Or, put a less-appealing way, the transmission could fall out of the car if half a dozen bolts worked themselves loose!
Tom: On some cars, like Chryslers and AMCs, you could have the transmission out and on the floor, and a new release bearing in, in half an hour!
Ray: These days, it's a nightmare. You have to pull the subframe down, and sometimes you have to pull the engine and transmission together. So you want to do everything you can to prolong your release bearing's existence.
Tom: To do that, you do exactly what you've been doing since the '60s, Joe: You don't sit at a traffic light with your foot on the clutch; instead, put the transmission in neutral, and take your foot off the clutch pedal. Your release bearing is working only when the clutch pedal is depressed.
Ray: By the way, if a customer ever does need a release bearing these days, we will always put in a completely new clutch at the same time. With all that labor involved, you'd be really ticked off if you replaced the release bearing only to have the clutch fail six months later.
Tom: And the reverse is true, too. If a person needs a clutch, we always put in a new release bearing at the same time.
Ray: But at $1,800 for a clutch job these days, you want to put it off as long as possible. So rest that left leg, Joe.
To buy or not to buy – options, that is. Are options worth what you pay for them, or are you better off just going with the basics? Order Tom and Ray's pamphlet "Should I Buy, Lease, or Steal My Next Car?" to find out. Send $4.75 (check or money order) to Next Car, P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475.

The FineTuningMA indicator with additional trend strength indication using colored dots based on the standard deviation algorithm.
If the standard deviation of the FineTuningMA indicator is between the dK1 and dK2 parameter values, then a small colored dot appears on the moving average. Its color corresponds to the current trend direction.
input double dK1=1.5; // Square-law filter coefficient 1 input double dK2=2.5; // Square-law filter coefficient 2
If the standard deviation becomes higher than the dK2 input parameter value, then the dot size increases. Thus, we get 3 levels of trend strength indication.

When they stand in line to pay the cashier, they come upon a large display of volumes dealing with FDR and the Great Depression. […]
Enough HDIB For Everyone; Heterosexual Intercourse Outlawed
There's enough hate, discrimination, injustice and bigotry (HDIB) generated against Americans of all stripes, that no one group can ever begin to absorb all of it. No need to covet another's HDIB. There's plenty to go 'round. A bountiful amount available to all.
Testaments: Harry S. Truman

About Me
Looking for Great People between all the crowd
Are you around Barcelona or want to come? Just give me a call or mail me, I can host you or have a coffee together! ;)
I am a student of Psychology, who loves peaceful moments. A walk in the forest, an afternoon near a lake, a conversation with a wine of glass... I think those are the moments that make one know what happiness is.
It is what I am looking for, knowing cultures, people and, at the same time, sharing my culture and my ideas to people around the world. No matter if it is around Barcelona (where I live) or New Zeland, at the other part of the world.
I am an easygoing-person, shy (at first), peaceful, a lover of Music (chill-out music, reggae, celtic and so on), love reading, spending a time in the couch talking to someone as we watch TV or an interesting film.
Come on, meet me !
This moment is everything we have. It's raining, rain is our reality. If it is sunny, sun is our reality.
Our thoughts is what guide us to heaven or to hell. And, no doubt, YOU have the control of your thoughts!
Why I'm on Couchsurfing

New restaurant construction starts in Millcreek (Updated: 12:25 p.m.)
Construction has started on a new restaurant with an estimated building price tag of $1 million in the Millcreek Marketplace.
Cheddar's Casual Cafe, a chain of restaurants in the Midwest and South, is being built in the Marketplace, which is just south of Interchange Road and across from the Millcreek Mall complex.
It will be just west of O'Charley's restaurant and just northeast of Buffalo Wild Wings.
Construction vehicles and a crew are on the site for dirt moving and other preliminary work before the building goes up.
At today's Millcreek supervisors' meeting, Supervisor Brian McGrath read some of the highlights from September's construction report in the township, and he said that Cheddar's had taken out a construction permit.
See Wednesday's Erie Times-News and GoErie.com for more coverage.

Since Denard Robinson came to the Michigan campus in the 2009 recruiting class, he has been the center of attention, and for good reason. He was a 4-star recruit from Rivals and Scout and was ranked in the ESPNU 150. Although he lacked the height of a typical quarterback at 6'0", his blazing speed more than made up for his stature, as he was a perfect fit into Rich Rodriguez's spread offense.
Although Robinson didn't see much of the football field as a true freshman (Tate Forcier started at that time), the following season, he set the college football world upside down.
Not only did Shoelace finish second in the nation with 1,702 yards rushing, but he was a respectable passer as well. He threw for 2,570 yards along with a 62.5 percent completion rate and 18 touchdowns, but had a rather high 11 interceptions.
He would certainly improve as a passer the next season, right? Rich Rodriguez would mold him into the next Pat White, right?
Well, not exactly.
As we all know by now, a change had to be made in Ann Arbor to get Michigan back to its winning tradition. Brady Hoke was hired, and the Wolverines exceeded just about everybody's expectations, going 11-2 and winning the Sugar Bowl his first year.
Unfortunately, the most important player on the football field for the Wolverines, Denard Robinson, regressed heavily as both a passer and a runner from 2010.
He threw for less yards (2,173 vs. 2,570), a worse completion percentage (55.0 vs. 62.5), more interceptions (15 vs. 11), had more sacks despite a more experienced offensive line (13 vs. seven) and ran far less yards (1,176 vs. 1,702).
Don't use Al Borges as a scapegoat. Yes, moving to a pro-style offense can be difficult for some, but most of the plays Michigan ran were from the spread. Borges essentially ran the spread while sprinkling in some pro-style plays here and there.
Here's how Denard Robinson can improve himself in his final year as a Michigan Wolverine.

Customer Reviews
Nice interface, but weak effects
The interface is nice and clean, well managed use of space. However, the effect are very weak. Especially on hi-res images, you can barely detect the Oil Paint or Soften filters. And there is no way to adjust the strength of the effects.
And the frames? Really? Very weak, only a few and those are practically worthless.
Final saved image resolution is about 2048x1362 or 2.8mp. Not great, but just OK. If you are strating out with a 12mp image, it is a disappointment. For an iPad app it should be much better.
This app is in desperate need of an upgrade. So glad I read the reies and waited for it to be free. Let's hope for an upgrade.
DONE button
At the top, we're is it? After cropping, I don't see a DONE button. Please assist. This is one of the better photo effects apps out there.
I just bought this app and every time I try to upload a picture to edit it crashes. I cannot do anything. Wait a waste of time and money.

Hume's Kaitlee Metcalf goes in for a layup during Saturday's game against NEVC.
APPLETON CITY, Mo. -- The Hume High School girls' basketball team defeated Northeast Vernon County in Friday night's consolation game at the Appleton City Tournament.
"(I'm) very proud of how my girls finished this tournament," Lady Hornets head coach Delanya Thompson said. "It is so fun watching them play with their new-found confidence."
That confidence paid off in a big way as the Lady Hornets picked up the victory by a final score of 56-30. Hope Yarick led the offensive effort with 21 points and was joined in double figures by Tori Sears with 16.
Sears also led the Lady Hornets in rebounds with 14, while Kaitlee Metcalf dished out 12 assists.
