Stop the OTHER War on May Day, Too!
The estimable Rod Long argues in an earlier post that we should stop the war on May Day by returning to its origins as a celebration of worker's movements, rather than transforming it into a commemoration of the crimes of governments.
I'm more interested in the OTHER war on May Day.
Back in the century which I most often inhabit, May Day was about dancing, drinking, erecting ludicrously phallic May-poles, bedecking every bedamned thing in town with flowers, and sneaking off into the woods to have sex–for the sheer fun of it and for the added delight of really annoying the Puritans who hated the phallic symbolism, the pagan origins, the public intoxication, the illicit sex…and just about everything about May Day.
WHERE, I ask you, has that May Day gone? There were still remnants of it when I was a kid. I remember making May baskets to take to my teachers. But I don't think anyone even does that any more.
May Day was so important (and so viciously contested by English Puritans) that King James I and VI published a declaration in 1618 (republished by his son in 1633) to make his feelings about it clear. He wrote:
Our pleasure likewise is, that after the end of divine service our good people be not disturbed, letted or discouraged from any lawful recreation, such as dancing, either men or women; archery for men, leaping, vaulting, or any other such harmless recreation, nor from having of May-games, Whitsun-ales, and Morris-dances; and the setting up of May-poles and other sports therewith used: so as the same be had in due and convenient time, without impediment or neglect of divine service: and that women shall have leave to carry rushes to the church for the decorating of it, according to their old custom; but withal we do here account still as prohibited all unlawful games to be used upon Sundays only, as bear and bull-baitings, interludes, and at all times in the meaner sort of people by law prohibited, bowling.
I'm not sure why King James was so down on bowling, but I do know that May Day was so thoroughly embraced by the English people and the Church of England clergy that poet and clergyman Robert Herrick wrote one of his greatest poems in its honor. Corinna's Going A-Maying is a joyous celebration of exactly the delights that King James's declaration protects. The young lover even uses the declaration as a seduction technique. When he calls to Corinna to get out of bed and join him in the fields he says:
Come, we'll abroad ; and let's obey
The proclamation made for May :
And sin no more, as we have done, by staying ;
But, my Corinna, come, let's go a-Maying.
Kisses and green-gowns (which the text coyly defines as "tumbles in the grass," ahem) are being given all over town, argues Herrick's young speaker. He and Corinna need to get going, or they'll miss it all:
Come, let us go while we are in our prime ;
And take the harmless folly of the time.
We shall grow old apace, and die
Before we know our liberty.
How this lusty celebration became a time to debate worker's rights, and then a time to celebrate the glories of an oppressive state and now, perhaps, a time to mourn those who suffered under the state, I am entirely unsure. I am sure, however, that we had a great holiday for celebrating pleasure and warm weather and sunshine and the sweets that come with freedom, and we blew it.
So If you're looking for me today, I'll be looking for something that needs a good floral bedecking.
May Day doesn't actually have any pagan origins. The earliest it can be traced back to is the Medieval period post Norman Conquest.
Except for references to it in early Irish literature like the Wooing of Emer and Cormac's Narrative, which pre-date the conquest…
What are these "interludes" upon which His Majesty frowns?
Early American revolutionaries used to do stuff like this, too.

Where has that wild sexual and drunken Mayday gone? It is alive and well, it is called spring break.

Thanks a lot for sharing this Sarah. There is a lot of hostility towards pleasure on both the left and the right as we are told to "find a cause greater than ourselves" which, surprirse, surprise, often involves service to the state. You wouldn't think pleasure for its own sake would need defenders but sadly it does.

For origins of the "international workers day", my son read me this from Wikipedia this morning: " International Workers' Day began in the United States, as a commemoration of the Haymarket Massacre of 1886 in Chicago.[13] After the successful 1917 workers' revolution in Russia, May Day became a widely celebrated holiday in the industrial areas of the United States.[14][15][16] "

I blame The Wicker Man for the lack of enthusiasm for this sort of celebration.

text: A chemical firm is considering how best to supply the world market for sulfuric acid. A manufacturing plant costs about $20 million to construct and requires a moderately skilled workforce. The total value of the world market for this product over the next 10 years is estimated to be between $20 billion and $30 billion. The tariffs prevailing in this industry are moderate. Should the firm favor concentrated manufacturing or decentralized manufacturing? What kind of location(s) should the firm seek for its plant(s)?

Dr. Fischer was great! I had something small in my eye and she flipped my lid and got it right out. She is friendly and professional and I've already booked a full eye exam with her for next week (I did not feel pressured to make another appointment, I just haven't had an exam for years).
If you are looking for an excellent Surgeon who is kind, caring and does precision surgical intervention, you will be highly pleased with Dr. Fischer. I highly recommend her and her surgical staff who made my eye lid surgery a remarkably satisfactory experience.I felt at ease with the professionalism of her staff and the immaculate facilities that she uses.
If you are looking for an excellent Surgeon who is kind, caring and does precision surgical intervention, you will be highly pleased with Dr. Fischer. ...
I have been to many Ophthalmologists over the past 20 years to treat chronic conjunctivitis and related eye problems. I became very discouraged with the level of treatment and results until I was referred to Dr. Fischer. Dr. Fischer is an outstanding ophtalmologist. She took the time necessary to fully understand and treat the source of my eye problems. I have been seeing Dr. Fischer for over a year and the results are amazing - my eyes are nearly symptom free for the first time in 20 years!
I had my sagging eyelids corrected by Dr. Fischer. I was impressed by her knowledge of the problem and explanation of the procedure to correct it. The outcome after surgery is remarkable. I can see so much better and I am no longer embarrassed by my droopy eyelids. Dr. Fischer has a wonderful bedside manner and is very down-to-earth. She loves what she does and has a passion for helping her patients. I would highly recommend Dr. Fischer if you are in need of eye surgery.
Dr. Fischer was very thorough, explained things extremely well and showed genuine concern for my condition. She is highly experienced, very knowledgeable and professional, yet friendly and approachable.

Sex in Detective Fiction – Do's and Don'ts (1935)
by Frank Armer, publisher of Spicy Detective magazine
In describing breasts of a female character, avoid anatomical descriptions.
If it is necessary for the story to have the girl give herself to a man, do not go too carefully into the details. You can lead up to the actual consummation, but leave the rest up to the reader's imagination. This subject should be handled delicately and a great deal can be done by implication and suggestion.
Whenever possible, avoid complete nudity of the female characters. You can have a girl strip to her underwear, or transparent negligee, or nightgown, or the thin torn shred of her garments, but while the girl is alive and in contact with a man, we do not want complete nudity.
A nude female corpse is allowable, of course.
Also, a girl undressing in the privacy of her own room, but when men are in the action try to keep at least a shred of something on the girls.
Do not have men in underwear in scenes with women, and no nude men at all.

E. B. White to the Editor of the Ellsworth American
January 1, 1976
To the Editor:
I think it might be useful to stop viewing fences for a moment and take a close look at Esquire magazine's new way of doing business. In February, Esquire will publish a long article by Harrison E. Salisbury, for which Mr. Salisbury will receive no payment from Esquire but will receive $40,000 from the Xerox Corporation—plus another $15,000 for expenses. This, it would seem to me, is not only a new idea in publishing, it charts a clear course for the erosion of the free press in America. Mr. Salisbury is a former associate editor of the New York Times and should know better. Esquire is a reputable sheet and should know better. But here we go—the Xerox-Salisbury-Esquire axis in full cry!
A news story about this amazing event in the December 14th issues of the Times begins: "Officials of Esquire magazine and of the Xerox Corporation report no adverse reactions, so far, to the announcement that Esquire will publish a 23-page article [about travels through America] in February 'sponsored' by Xerox." Herewith I am happy to turn in my adverse reaction even if it is the first one across the line.
Esquire, according to the Times story, attempts to justify its new payment system (get the money from a sponsor) by assuring us that Mr. Salisbury will not be tampered with by Xerox; his hand and his pen will be free. If Xerox likes what he writes about America, Xerox will run a "low keyed full-page ad preceding the article" and another ad at the end of it. From this advertising, Esquire stands to pick up $115,000, and Mr. Salisbury has already picked up $40,000, traveling, all expenses paid, through his once happy land...
Apparently Mr. Salisbury had a momentary qualm about taking on the Xerox job. The Times reports him as saying, "At first I thought, gee whiz, should I do this?" But he quickly compared his annoying doubts and remembered that big corporations had in the past been known to sponsor "cultural enterprises," such as opera. The emergence of a magazine reporter as a cultural enterprise is as stunning a sight as the emergence of a butterfly from a cocoon. Mr. Salisbury must have felt great, escaping from his confinement.
Well, it doesn't take a giant intellect to detect in all this the shadow of disaster. If magazines decide to farm out their writers to advertisers and accept the advertiser's payment to the writer and to the magazine, then the periodicals of this country will be far down the drain and will become so fuzzy as to be indistinguishable from the controlled press in other parts of the world.

Some time in the 1480s (experts tend to agree with 1483/84, at which point he was approximately 32-years-old) Leonardo da Vinci applied for a job at the court of Ludovico Sforza — then de facto ruler of Milan but not officially its Duke for another few years. Da Vinci did so by way of the following application letter; essentially a fascinating list of his abilities which, in an effort to appeal to Sforza's needs at the time, is dominated by his undeniably impressive military engineering skills. His artistic genius isn't really hinted at until the end.
Da Vinci's efforts paid off, and he was eventually employed. A decade later, it was Sforza who commissioned him to paint The Last Supper.

My Most Illustrious Lord,
Having now sufficiently seen and considered the achievements of all those who count themselves masters and artificers of instruments of war, and having noted that the invention and performance of the said instruments is in no way different from that in common usage, I shall endeavour, while intending no discredit to anyone else, to make myself understood to Your Excellency for the purpose of unfolding to you my secrets, and thereafter offering them at your complete disposal, and when the time is right bringing into effective operation all those things which are in part briefly listed below:
1. I have plans for very light, strong and easily portable bridges with which to pursue and, on some occasions, flee the enemy, and others, sturdy and indestructible either by fire or in battle, easy and convenient to lift and place in position. Also means of burning and destroying those of the enemy.
2. I know how, in the course of the siege of a terrain, to remove water from the moats and how to make an infinite number of bridges, mantlets and scaling ladders and other instruments necessary to such an enterprise.
3. Also, if one cannot, when besieging a terrain, proceed by bombardment either because of the height of the glacis or the strength of its situation and location, I have methods for destroying every fortress or other stranglehold unless it has been founded upon a rock or so forth.
4. I have also types of cannon, most convenient and easily portable, with which to hurl small stones almost like a hail-storm; and the smoke from the cannon will instil a great fear in the enemy on account of the grave damage and confusion.
5. Also, I have means of arriving at a designated spot through mines and secret winding passages constructed completely without noise, even if it should be necessary to pass underneath moats or any river.
6. Also, I will make covered vehicles, safe and unassailable, which will penetrate the enemy and their artillery, and there is no host of armed men so great that they would not break through it. And behind these the infantry will be able to follow, quite uninjured and unimpeded.
7. Also, should the need arise, I will make cannon, mortar and light ordnance of very beautiful and functional design that are quite out of the ordinary.
8. Where the use of cannon is impracticable, I will assemble catapults, mangonels, trebuckets and other instruments of wonderful efficiency not in general use. In short, as the variety of circumstances dictate, I will make an infinite number of items for attack and defence.
9. And should a sea battle be occasioned, I have examples of many instruments which are highly suitable either in attack or defence, and craft which will resist the fire of all the heaviest cannon and powder and smoke.
10. In time of peace I believe I can give as complete satisfaction as any other in the field of architecture, and the construction of both public and private buildings, and in conducting water from one place to another.
Also I can execute sculpture in marble, bronze and clay. Likewise in painting, I can do everything possible as well as any other, whosoever he may be.
Moreover, work could be undertaken on the bronze horse which will be to the immortal glory and eternal honour of the auspicious memory of His Lordship your father, and of the illustrious house of Sforza.
And if any of the above-mentioned things seem impossible or impracticable to anyone, I am most readily disposed to demonstrate them in your park or in whatsoever place shall please Your Excellency, to whom I commend myself with all possible humility.
(via Letters of Note)
"I long to hear that you have declared an independancy—and by the way in the new Code of Laws which I suppose it will be necessary for you to make I desire you would Remember the Ladies, and be more generous and favourable to them than your ancestors. Do not put such unlimited power into the hands of the Husbands. Remember all Men would be tyrants if they could. If perticuliar care and attention is not paid to the Laidies we are determined to foment a Rebelion, and will not hold ourselves bound by any Laws in which we have no voice, or Representation.
That your Sex are Naturally Tyrannical is a Truth so thoroughly established as to admit of no dispute, but such of you as wish to be happy willingly give up the harsh title of Master for the more tender and endearing one of Friend. Why then, not put it out of the power of the vicious and the Lawless to use us with cruelty and indignity with impunity. Men of Sense in all Ages abhor those customs which treat us only as the vassals of your Sex. Regard us then as Beings placed by providence under your protection and in immitation of the Supreem Being make use of that power only for our happiness."

Milwaukee Rep, Jim DeVita bring home agony of war in 'An Iliad'
Regardless of whether Helen's face truly launched 1,000 ships and started the Trojan War, there's no denying that Jim DeVita's first slump-shouldered sigh, early in the Milwaukee Repertory Theater's production of "An Iliad," speaks at least 1,000 despairing words about the never-ending aftermath.
Can one blame him? Catapulted through a back door and onto the stage by a blinding force — call it fate, or history — DeVita appears before us as the never-named Poet, and it's clear as he looks around that it's déjà vu all over again. »Read Full Article(2)
ComedySportz and Irish dance among events to check out this week
Laugh it away
If laughter could cure ovarian cancer, the collaboration of the Wisconsin Ovarian Cancer Alliance and ComedySportz over the last 12 years would have made it a thing of the past. But it can't, though money can help. So the two groups are again putting on "Comedy for a Cause." Let's hope the 13th annual laugh-riot does the trick. It will take place Thursday at 5:30p.m. at American Serb Hall, 5101 W. Oklahoma Ave. The evening begins with a buffet dinner followed by a raffle drawing. Then ComedySportz takes over with family oriented entertainment. The evening isn't over until all auction items are sold. Tickets are $35 and $5 for children ages 5-8 (younger children are welcome for free). The donation of a nonperishable food item gets the givers an extra raffle ticket. »Read Full Article

Skip to comments.What Is The Best Shortwave Radio (multi-band) On A Budget? (vanity)
Posted on 02/06/2013 7:37:43 PM PST by RushIsMyTeddyBear
click here to read article
I started shortwave listening in the early 1960s with a Hallicrafters S120 (tubes -- I still have it), and moved on to transistorized models by Lafayette and Allied. Then, in relatively modern times, I got a digital Realistic DX-440 (Sangean 803A), which is about in your desired price range. Also, for power outage emergencies, I have a Grundig FR-200 (with a hand crank for recharging the battery).
The DX-440 does a decent job. I noticed from a net listing that Australia is listed on 9580 KHz at this time of day (between 8 and 9 am). I just checked that frequency, and was able to receive it on the U.S. east coast (with some static, but that's using only an indoor antenna).
For comparison, though, here's an example of what's available from Australia on the net (not counting tv) -- Australian Live Radio. I can understand having a shortwave radio for emergencies, or to receive special kinds of broadcasts, but for ordinary listening I think the internet is better.
Really cheap.....but not good....Coby CX-CB 12....bought some on Amazon last year. Analog....non digital dial. Nine SW channels Lots of bleed over on FM and AM. Paid $12 each for them
I got them because I went to Europe and wanted an ole school dial radio as US radios have different spacing between AM stations. Also...this cheap radio has LW (longwave)....which comes in handy in Europe if you want English language radio on the continent....as BBC and RTE (Ireland) have LW stations
Cheap radio in price....cheap quality also this
When I was a kid playing with my nine transistor radio, I learned that you could dramatically increase signal power by putting the radio next to the electrical power line coming into the house. Just an interesting observation.
Thanks! I'll check it out.
Is this a good site to listen online?

[Sorry for the length of this two-post response]
> Is this a good site to listen online? http://websdr.org/
I don't know. I've never tried it. What I had in mind were stations that are put online by the broadcasters themselves, and that can be received (crystal clear) by programs such as Windows Media Player, Realplayer, or VLC Media Player. Many sites contain long lists of links to such stations, and you can find them by googling "online radio stations". Other terms such as "live radio" or "streaming radio" and the name of a country or city you wish to receive will usually produce plenty of results.
If I understand the http://websdr.org/ site correctly, what it's doing is producing a net interface to actual shortwave radio receivers at the various server sites, and allowing you to tune in frequencies and hear what the radios receive there. An amazing concept. It's a way of listening to shortwave radio on other people's receivers. :-)
It does sound interesting, especially if you're looking for odd signals that might show up on particular frequencies, rather than programs from the major broadcasters (which are probably best received with the programs I mentioned at the ordinary net streaming sites).
My general impression is favorable, provided you wish to try odd frequencies and replicate real shortwave listening. You don't need that site, though, just to hear lots of stations from all over the world. To do that, other lists of online stations will suffice (they provide clickable links that will play stations with the software I mentioned).
Look for a Yaesu FRG-7 on eBay or Craigslist.

Call for Proposals: Film & History Southwest/Texas Popular Culture Association/American Culture Association 33rd Annual Conference • February 8-11, 2012
New Mexico
United States
Call for Papers Date:
Date Submitted:
Announcement ID:
Proposals for papers and panels are now being considered for the Film & History Area of the annual SW/TX PCA/ACA conference. This year's conference theme is Celebrating "Foods & Culture(s) in a Global Context."
Our area is concerned with the impact of motion pictures on our society and how films represent and interpret history. Presentations can, for example, feature analyses of individual films and/or TV programs from historical perspectives, surveys of documents related to the production of films, or analyses of history and culture as explored through film. Genres could include historical films attempting to define history, propaganda films, documentaries, docudramas, newsreels and broadcast media, war films, music videos and concert films, reality shows, avant-garde, cinema vérité, actualités, and direct cinema. Proposals could consider some aspect of the intersections among film, history, society, and culture, exploring films as social and historical artifacts of the culture from which they arise as well as the role played by film in constructing, shaping, and re-imagining history. Papers may take a single film focus, make comparative considerations, or explore critical films focused on a given era, individual, or historical event. Papers that connect to the conference-wide theme of global food and culture are also particularly sought.
Listed below are suggestions for possible presentations or panels, but topics not included here are also welcome:
• Historical representations of race, ethnicity, and gender in fiction or non-fiction film
• Biographies of key artistic, political, military, activist, or cinematic figures
• Representations of wars, the West, borders, national characters and ideologies
• Documentaries: How true is 'The Truth'?
• Film and social commentary
• Politics and government in film
• Film and the political economy
• Histories of film production, the film industry, or the science and technology of film
• Cult, alternative, and independent films and icons through history
• The histories of particular film schools or film theories
• Pedagogies of teaching film & history
If you wish to form your own panel within the Film & History area, we would be glad to facilitate your needs. Roundtable sessions and international participation are also encouraged.
Proposals should be submitted directly to the Film & History subject area at our conference database at http://conference2012.swtxpca.org.
Professors, independent scholars, teachers, and professionals are encouraged to participate. Graduate students are particularly welcome at the conference, which offers awards for the best graduate papers. Please note that SW/TX PCA/ACA only permits one presentation per person per year. The conference features numerous individual subject areas with its own Area Chair and multiple subject area panels. Therefore, please refrain from submitting the same paper to more than subject area or submitting multiple papers to separate areas.
Information about our areas of study, graduate student awards, conference travel, lodging, and the organization can be found at our regularly updated website: http://www.swtxpca.org.

Ohio St. Center Avoids On-Air Gaffe
December 12th, 2013| by Lost Lettermen
Ohio State center Amir Williams filled up the stat sheet to the tune of 12 points, nine rebounds and six blocks in an 86-48 rout of Bryant College on Wednesday. When asked by Big Ten Network reporter (and former Buckeyes star) Jim Jackson about his improved performance in recent weeks, Williams nearly gave some R-rated analysis.
"Coach Matta, he's been on my di…, uhh, my back every day in practice," Williams said.
Yup, we're pretty sure he barely avoided saying how Matta's "been on his d*ck" in practice. Close call.

The victory of Tokugawa Ieyasu at the Battle of Sekigahara in 1600 ended more than a century of civil war among Japan's samurai clans and ushered in 250 years of unprecedented peace and prosperity. As the new shogun (military ruler), Ieyasu established his capital in Edo, a small village far removed from Japan's traditional centers of artistic production. By the early 1700s, Edo had grown into a bustling metropolis of more than one million inhabitants. Its vibrant urban culture became the inspiration for a new form of artistic expression known as ukiyo-e, floating world pictures.
The floating world referred to the escapist lifestyle and ephemeral pleasures offered in Edo's kabuki theaters and the Yoshiwara, a licensed brothel district on the northern outskirts of the city. With star actors and glamorous courtesans as their piimary subjects, ukiyo-e artists conveyed the intricate nuances of the floating world to an appreciative and diverse clientele. Being especially attuned to popular pastimes and pursuits, they also exploited the public's love of travel and its fascination with samurai history. By the early ninteenth century, the repertoire of floating world images included landscapes and warrior prints. as well as illustrated books and prints for children.
Ukiyo-e artists preferred the woodblock print medium because it was flexible enough to accommodate a wide range of artistic expression. Whether they were cheaply produced black and white images or luxurious full-color designs using exotic pigments and precious mineral, the woodblock medium also facilitated mass production. Keeping pace with the latest developments in popular culture was never a problem; astute publishers, with access to workshops of engravers and printers, could turn an artist's sketch into a full-color print in a matter of days. Successful designs were issued in several editions to meet popular demand. These prints carried Edo's urban culture and the floating world's unique sensibilities far beyond their origins in the entertainment districts.
This exhibition provides an opportunity to experience the intricacies of the floating world and the artistry of the woodblock print tradition. Over sixty prints organized to represent the major genres, themes, and subjects explored by print artists from the early eighteenth through the late ninteenth centuries provide a unique glimpse of life and art inside the floating world and popular Japanese culture of the time.
The exhibition was organized by The Weatherspoon Art Museum, The University of North Carolina at Greensborothis exhibition featured over 100 woodblock prints. Accompanied by an exhibition catalogue distributed by the University of Washington Press. Its presentation at Hamilton College is made possible through the generosity of the Office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs and the Dean of the Faculty and the Department of Art History.

The gathering was a great success for a worthy cause. Shiloh Comprehensive Community Center received approximately $8,000. However, the greatest gift was the joy and response of the community.
A man just passing by in a truck stopped and came onto the grounds and asked me what all this was about. I explained it to him. He said he had heard local on-air personality Minnesota Fattz on the radio, but had never seen him in person. Neither had I, I said. At this moment Minnesota Fattz appeared from his tent and introduced himself. Then the man wanted me to point out many of the commissioners, whom he had only seen in the news media.
The participants were not representing Democrats, Republicans, black, white, rich, poor, churches, elected officials, etc. The group was just one happy family enjoying an old-fashioned fish fry and helping the needy.
I do hope this will be a yearly affair. It was Augusta at its best -- volunteers and members of the community in fellowship to support Shiloh.
Please give so the historical Shiloh Comprehensive Community Center can continue serving Augusta. I thank everyone for their support.

"I live in a shoebox for an apartment and pay $3,000,000 for the right to live with a hassidic jew who is constantly masturbating her parrot with my toothbrush. Dating sucks here because everyone is ugly and broke and even if I get someone to go out with me they inevitably have a scorching case of herpes. Everytime I leave my rat hole I battle through the masses of rude ass people so that I can go sound like a tough guy and tell homeless people to fuck off. I walk by the beautiful, word class restaurants where celebrities eat while making the decision to eat another danger dog or mickey D's. It's fucking too hot here in the summer, it's fucking too cold here in the winter. If 9/11 hadn't happened the world's most bloated sports salary team the yankess would have won every year, I don't understand why everyone else in hates them? I saw DeNiro the other day, but pretended not too - he looks old. Donald Trump is awesome, hopefully he can make all of America as beautiful as Atlantic City someday. Speaking of movie stars, I would go to the movies but 1,000,000 other people had the same idea. I almost went to the Hampton's last year but my friends already had 9 people crammed in a room with no air conditioning so I went to Central Park and laid my pale ass out. Oh well, too many people, nothing to do, scorching case of herpes, toothpaste used as an avionic vibrator - may as well bitch about it on Craig's List.

When you create a brand new document you may notice that the Swatches panel already contains a range of colors. How did those color get there? Well, the swatches themselves are there because they are present inside of the New Document Profiles. Remember that when you create a brand new document you can choose between the Print New Document Profile or the Web New Document Profile or Video and Films, so on and so forth. Those are actually Illustrator documents that have been saved in a certain location that act as profiles. Whenever you create a brand new document all the contents from that document, including the swatches that exist in that document, are basically used to create a brand new file, that's why they appear here in this particular Swatches panel.
Well, let's say you want to create your own. So there are a few things you can do. First of all, let's go to the Swatches panel directly here. I'm going to go to the flyout menu. I'm going to choose something here called Select All Unused. That's going to select all the unused swatches in my particular file, and now if I click on this button here to delete the swatches, I'll say yes, I want to delete the swatch selection, I'm left with the colors over here that are not used in the file. Now you may ask, hey, there are some black and red colors that appear here, why are they still here? Well, that is simply because they may be used inside of symbols or graphic styles that may also exist inside of the file.
But for now I removed most of the swatches that are here. You could of course manually delete a swatch by clicking on it and dragging it right to the trashcan directly. In fact, I'm going to go ahead and remove these other extra ones that are here as well. I can actually take this entire folder icon and drag it right to the garbage as well. Those are something called color groups, and we can discuss that little bit later on inside of this chapter. But for now I have a Swatches panel that only contains a black swatch and a white swatch. There is also a swatch here called Registration. Registration means that that particular color will print on every color plate that prints when separations are made. Then you have the None attribute as well. In any Illustrator document these two swatches, the None attribute and the Registration attribute, are protected, meaning that they cannot be deleted; they will always be inside of a document.
So let's talk about creating our own swatches. The reason why you would want to create a swatch is because maybe you want to use the same color over and over again. Rather than have to constantly specify colors inside of the Color panel, you want to be able to quickly just click on a color and choose that. By the way, you will notice that now since I have cleaned out the Swatches panel, should you come here to this little Fill Indicator to try to colorize any particular object; for example, I select this object, you notice that right now there are no colors here. So the colors that I see here are not just arbitrary colors made up, they are the same colors that are picked up directly from the Swatches panel here. So let's go ahead and create a few new colors. The easiest way to do that is to actually come over here to the Color panel, choose any color. For example, let's say I like this yellow color, surprise, surprise, and simply go ahead and click on this little icon right here and drag it right into the Swatches panel.
When I release the mouse that now adds that particular color as a swatch. Now if I choose any particular object, I can colorize it directly with that color. You can edit that particular color swatch by double clicking on it. That brings up something called the Swatch Options dialog box, where I can give it a name. By default Illustrator calls it by its own values that created it, and I can either change the values directly here, or if I was using things other than CMYK, for example, I can choose between the other methods of choosing color that we discussed before. One item that you will find here that you won't find inside the Color panel is something called Lab. We won't go into any discussions about the Lab format now, although if you really want to find out more information about it I do suggest that you head over to Deke McClelland's Excellent Photoshop Series, where he goes into detail about the Lab Color mode. But for now I'll switch us right back to CMYK, and I'll go ahead and I'll click OK.
Another way to create a swatch is to simply go ahead over here on the bottom of the Swatches panel and click on this icon called New Swatch. When you do so, it simply picks up the last swatch that you had selected, but here you can go ahead and make some changes. For example, I'll type in another value, may be we will do like a bright green color. So we do about 100% Cyan, 0 Magenta, and about 85% Yellow. I click OK and now I have just created a swatch here. By the way, I can double click on that and give this one a name; let's call this one Bright Green, for example. Again, to use that color, I can simply select any object, go ahead and click on that Bright Green color, and now I have applied it.
It's important to note that anytime that you save swatches to a document those swatches are now saved within that document. So if I now create a brand new document. For example, let's go to the File menu here and choose New to create a new document. I'll just choose the regular profile; for example, maybe the Web Profile, click OK. I'll see that the swatches that appear here are the swatches that were copied from the Web New Document Profile, the colors that I have created in the other document belong only to that document. Let's switch back to the applying_ colors document here, and it's important to note that there are different types of color swatches that exist inside of Illustrator. Not all swatches are created equal. So what we have done now so far is created what I call a regular plain color swatch, however in the next movie we will discuss something called a global color swatch, and global color swatches have additional functionality.

Talk:135: Substitute
Rikthoff (talk) The issue date is off, as i can't find a create date for the image. Can anyone fix?
1. It takes the raptor 25m/s / 4m/s^2 = 6.25s to reach it's top speed, during which I can run 6.25s * 6m/s = 37.5m. Add on my 40m head start, and I can reach a spot 77.5m away from the raptor before he gets me. In the same time, the raptor can run 4m/s^2 * (6.25s)^2 / 2 = 78.125m. I'm eaten before he's fully up to speed. Therefore, I have to solve for when the raptors location, r(t) = 4m/s^2 * t^2 /2 - 40, and my location, m(t) = 6m/s*t, are equal. Dropping units, we get 2t^2 -40 = 6t, or 2t^2 - 6t - 40 = 0. Dividing by 2 I get t^2 - 3t - 20=0. Using the quadratic equation, I get (3 +/- sqrt(89))/2, roughly equal to 6.217s and -3.217s. Plugging that back into m(t), I get 37.302m for my terminal run. Blaisepascal (talk) 22:18, 14 September 2012 (UTC)
I don't think there is enough information to solve the second problem, because you don't know how fast the non-injured raptors go. Unless you take that information from the first problem. But then, how fast does the wounded raptor accelerate? You would have to find the angle where the wounded and the closest non-wounded raptor would meet you at the same time. 22.214.171.124 17:17, 5 September 2013 (UTC)
With all three raptors and you running at top speeds, I don't think you get caught by the injured raptor and uninjured raptor at the same time. I believe that you must run directly towards the wounded raptor and the two non-injuried raptors will reach you simultaneously before you and the injured raptor meet, and you cannot do better. After all, you can try to run directly away from an uninjured raptor, but you will lose ground to it at a rate of 25-6=19 m/s (but, it is worst for the other uninjured raptor). By running directly at the injured raptor, you lose ground from it at the rate of 10+6=16 m/s. However, if you can accelerate at a rate far above the raptors, I think you could change directions so fast that one raptor could not catch you. However, I am not sure you can keep away from all three indefinitely. --DrMath 04:01, 24 October 2013 (UTC)
For 1 and 2 the solution depends on whether the raptors can accelerate at 2m/s, or they actually increase their speed at this rate. If they just accelerate, It should be possible to do tight circles, and even wind yourself slowly towards another location. I believe this is possible even treating yourself and the raptors as point masses. 22.214.171.124 13:19, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
This could also be a parody of Snape substituting for Lupin (Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban) in the Defense against Dark Arts class. Snape assigns homework on werewolves, in the hopes of one of the students connecting the dots. Here, Randall might be trying to get the students to suspect that Mrs.Lenhart might be a raptor (out of sympathy, or just being a classhole?). Also 155. 220.127.116.11 18:58, 1 October 2013 (UTC)BK201
There is a problem with the test, as Mr. Munroe wrote it: Question #1 says that a raptor has a top speed of 25 m/s, but question #3 says "Remember, raptors run at 10 m/s...". Furthermore, question #2 says an injured raptor runs at 10 m/s.
- The way I resolved that was that raptors wouldn't be able to run straight long enough to reach their top speed inside of a building. 184.108.40.206 23:53, 27 April 2015 (UTC)
BTW, the answer to question #2 is: run straight toward the injured raptor. The uninjured raptors will run toward you and the injured raptor. Just as you get close to the injured one, slide under his legs. Because he is injured, the uninjured raptors will feast on him instead of you. 18.104.22.168 20:58, 13 December 2013 (UTC)
- This presumes the raptors are cannibalistic. -Pennpenn 220.127.116.11 05:30, 15 June 2015 (UTC)
- In the original Jurassic park book, the little children get chased through the hatchery, and they try to use a baby raptor to distract the raptors chasing them, but the small raptor gets ripped to shreds. Raptors are merciless and horrible beings. Randall is right to hate them.RedHatGuy68 (talk) 01:28, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
- I solved it by being a t-rex and just eating the raptors. It's amazing how many math problems become easier when you're a t-rex. 18.104.22.168 23:29, 16 September 2015 (UTC)

Priority: Major
Resolution: Rejected
Affects Version/s: 7.1.2.Final (EAP)
Fix Version/s: 7.1.3.Final (EAP), EAP 6.1.0.Alpha (7.2.0.Final)
Component/s: Security
-'Add' operation for Security Domain children(Authentication,Authorization,Audit,Mapping) 'fails with JBAS014746: login-modules may not be null'. The fail message is for Authentication specifically ..but the other nodes fail with matching provider-modules not be null,etc.
- Assumes there is a securityDomain of name 'testDomain3' with cache-type='default'.
-Once the Security Domain child does exist 'read-attribute' and 'write-attribute' operations work as expected via json. This indicates to me that the json values for 'login-modules' is sound but just not acceptable because of a bug.
- The same 'add' operation, see below, via cli completes successfully.
- This is what the json contents look like before being sent off to the server. Switching 'add' to 'write-attribute' works correctly once the node already exists.:
"operation" : "add",
"address" : [ { "subsystem" : "security" }
,{ "security-domain" : "testDomain3" }
,{ "authentication" : "classic" }
"name" : "login-modules",
"value" : [Unknown macro: { "flag" }

Two things:
i)The json text doesn't look right in the description, but if you hit edit it's available again.
ii)I did take the valid CLI command, and created CommandContextFactory with it and used .toJsonString to make sure the json being sent matched what was expected. Unless the json for 'add' is quite different from the json for 'write-attribute', then this looks like a bug to me.
I just pinged you in #jboss-as7 with this response:
darranl: I did add the 'login-module' module component even in batch mode. I don't think batching has anything to do with this issue. The only difference between 'add' and 'write-attribute' is the operation name. 'add' fails when there is no component, but 'write-attribute' succeeds without problem and successfully updates when there is an existing 'authentication=classic' component.
darranl: In both case the 'login-module' attribute is defined in the exact same way and by the same json excerpt. The fact 'login-module' is valid for 'write-attribute' and not for 'add' is why I think this is a bug.
If you hit 'Edit' mode for this JIRA you will see the json excerpt being sent as the raw json is being parsed as a macro above otherwise.
Does this help to clarify? I also think this is past a forum post because all the details are already laid out here in a public jira. No?
The attached client both adds and removes a security domain over HTTP - on adding the authentication element at least one login module definition needs to be included.
I am however having a problem adding the module-options that I am still looking into.
Stefan - Do you mind if I take ownership of this issue? The original complaint appears resolved with a compound operation of two add steps within the compound operation to add the domain definition but there is still a problem regarding the required type to define the module options - I really need to discuss this further with Brian as there is a backwards compatibility issue to this as well as an issue relating to validating happening at different points.
Ignore the last comments and see the latest HttpClient attached - a slightly different form was needed to specify the module-options.
This client demonstrates that it is possible to fully define a security domain using json over the HTTP management interface. For that reason I believe this issue can now be resolved.
Marking as rejected as the attached client demonstrates this is possible.

MILWAUKEE — Your turn, Albert Pujols.
The St. Louis slugger had one of the biggest postseason nights of his career in Game 2 of the NL championship series, going 4 for 5 with a home run, three doubles and five RBIs to lead the Cardinals past the Milwaukee Brewers, 12-3, on Monday.
Tied at one game apiece, the series shifts to St. Louis, where Cardinals ace Chris Carpenter will face Brewers right-hander Yovani Gallardo on Wednesday night.
Pujols belted a two-run homer in the first, a two-run double in the third and an RBI double in the fifth, then added another double in the seventh. The crowd cheered sarcastically when the Brewers finally retired him in the eighth.
His big hits came one night after Ryan Braun and Prince Fielder bashed the Brewers to a 9-6, come-from-behind victory in Game 1.
This time, the big bats couldn't bring Milwaukee back — even at Miller Park. The best home team in the majors all season, the Brewers had won all four home games in the playoffs until Monday.
Pujols was 1 for 4 in Sunday night's loss, hitting into a double play with runners on first and third in the seventh inning. A run scored on the play, but it seemed to be an indication that Pujols wasn't quite on his game. He came into Monday with only one RBI in the Cardinals' first six postseason games.
But Pujols struck a confident tone when asked about his struggles after Sunday night's loss, saying "Tomorrow I can come and blow it out, and what are you going to say tomorrow?"
Blow it out, he did.
Rickie Weeks hit a two-run homer in the fourth for Milwaukee, then was involved in a disputed play in the fifth. With the bases loaded and one out, Weeks grounded into a double play, though replays showed he was safe.

Lebanon mourns slain newspaper magnate
December 13, 2005
By Nadim Ladki BEIRUT (Reuters) - Schools, shops and businesses closed down in Lebanon on Tuesday to mourn anti-Syrian press magnate and legislator Gebran Tueni, whose killing threatened to plunge the country into political turmoil. Tueni was killed on Monday by a large car bomb in a Christian suburb of Beirut along with three other people in the third political assassination since former Prime Minister Rafik al-Hariri was killed in February. "Gebran Tueni did not die, an-Nahar carries on," said the frontpage banner headline of Beirut's leading Arabic-language an-Nahar newspaper, published by Tueni. The 48-year-old Tueni's most fiery criticism of Syria and its role in Lebanon often came in weekly editorials splashed across the newspaper's front page. Many Lebanese politicians blamed Syria for Tueni's killing but Damascus was quick to deny any involvement. The killing, however, strained the domestic political scene where Syria still has powerful allies. "Enough...," was the headline of al-Bayrak daily. Other newspapers were more blunt: "The Syrian security regime assassinates Gebran Tueni," al-Mustaqbal paper headlined. A large anti-Syrian political grouping met at an-Nahar offices and called for a general strike and a mass turnout for Tueni's funeral on Wednesday. Huge protests after Hariri's death forced Syria to bow to world pressure in April and end 29 years of military presence in Lebanon. "We are facing a real state of war ... aiming at preventing the emergence of a (sovereign) state in Lebanon," Christian politician Samir Geagea told LBC television. "It is a war to eliminate Lebanon's nationalist figures..." Five Shi'ite Muslim ministers close to Syria suspended participation in the government after it voted on Monday night to seek a U.N. investigation into a series of assassinations that have rocked Lebanon over the past 14 months. A sixth Christian minister loyal to pro-Syrian President Emile Lahoud also walked out of the session. SHI'ITES PONDER RESIGNATION The suspension of Shi'ite participation is the most serious political setback for the five-month-old government of Prime Minister Fouad Siniora. The 24-member cabinet is delicately balanced on sectarian lines and the move leaves the government without participation from the largest sect, the Shi'ites. The Shi'ite ministers, loyal to Hizbollah and Amal groups, opposed the call for a U.N. inquiry into the killing of Tueni and others, but were outvoted by ministers who campaigned with Tueni for Syria's withdrawal. The government also called on the United Nations to form a tribunal of an "international character" to try suspects in the killing of Hariri. A political source said the two groups were considering whether to resign from the government as they were concerned about the rise of security and political involvement in Lebanon of the international community, especially the United States. Washington views the staunchly anti-Israeli guerrilla group Hizbollah, the only group to keep its weapons after the 1975-1990 civil war, as a "terrorist group" and a Security Council resolution demands it disarm. If the five ministers leave it will be difficult for Siniora to find Shi'ite candidates with wide representation in their community, the source said. "In security matters there are calls for international investigators ... in the judiciary there are calls for an international tribunal, and in the economy we face similar pressure," Energy Minister Mohammed Fneish, a Hizbollah member, told the group's al-Manar television. "It is not much different from the days of the (French) mandate ... What is next?" Hundreds of people, including journalists, politicians, supporters and sympathisers flocked to a Greek Orthodox church in the mainly Christian Ashrafiyeh district of Beirut to present condolences to Tueni's family, led by his father Ghassan Tueni, a well respected former minister and diplomat. Hours after Tueni's murder, a U.N. inquiry team said in an interim report that it had fresh evidence to reinforce earlier findings of Syrian involvement in Hariri's killing and that Damascus had hindered the investigation. The 15-member Council weighs its response to Mehlis's report at a meeting later on Tuesday. (Additional reporting by Alaa Shahine) Reuters via swissinfo
