The primary shape in nature is the hexagon. There aren't any naturally occurring 4 sided snowflakes or ice crystals or any other four sided forms (animal, vegetable or mineral) created by natural forces. Four sided snowflakes is an entirely man made invention. Doily flakes are popular shapes because of their simplicity, geometric and easier for little hands to manipulate the folds and cuts. Once the kids get the hang of the 4 sided introduction patterns they can graduate to the 2, 3 and 6 sided patterns. The indigenous population of the Hawaiian Islands utilized the 4 sided symmetrical pattern of the snow flake to make quilts out of pounded bark for ceremonies and special occasions. Originally the quilts were burned in ceremonies but now two-colored cloth snowflake quilts and wall hangings are popular items to create and share or display.
Easy four sided paper cut-out shapes are not only fun to make but useful to help introduce math concepts of symmetry. Once you reach guru stage (expert) with the cutting of these doilies, you can experiment with designing a masterpiece with blank templates.
Snowflake decorations liven up any dull winter day. Bring blizzards of white and colorful snowflake ornaments and garlands to decorate the windows, Christmas tree, classroom or office cubicle.
Print all patterns on regular or colored paper such as printable gift wrap and pretty stationery. Trace the patterns onto foam sheets and aluminum foil to create unique designs. Use sharp scissors. For intricate patterns use small cuticle scissors.

At first glance, the No. 16 West Texas A&M football team's defense had a horrible day Saturday against McMurry at Wilford Moore Stadium in Abilene.
The Buffs won 90-57, but they allowed season-highs in points (57), rushing yards (300), passing yards (408) and total yards (708).
An opponent had not shredded the WT defense in that fashion since Abilene Christian set Lone Star Conference records in points and 810 total yards in a 93-68 win Nov. 22, 2008 in Abilene.
"Every time we've come to Abilene, either to play at McMurry or Hardin-Simmons or Abilene (Christian) or whoever we've played, we've come to Abilene a lot in the last six or seven years together as a coaching group, and there is always something crazy that happens here," said WT interim head coach Mike Nesbitt, who was on the WT staff from 2007-10 before returning this season. "It doesn't matter if we're here or we're across town at the purple school, there's always something that goes crazy."
Saturday's game was wild, all right. The Buffs and War Hawks combined for 1,401 total yards and ran a combined 181 plays, or slightly more than three per minute, and that included a fourth quarter in which both teams primarily ran the ball to run out the clock.
Obviously, a game that had historic offensive numbers comes at the expense of the defensive units.
WT saw its season average of 382 total yards allowed per game and conference-leading 21.1 points allowed per game jump to nearly 423 total yards per game and 25.6 points per game.
Yet, no matter how garish the statistics from the game might be, WT won by 33 points.
Granted, the Buffs (7-1, 3-1 LSC) should have beaten a McMurry team that entered the game 1-6 and is in its second season in a transition from NCAA Division III to Division II.
And the WT defense has had a rough three weeks after a 72-0 homecoming win Oct. 5 over Central (Ohio) State.
It allowed 556 yards to No. 23 Tarleton State in a 31-27 loss Oct. 12 and 554 total yards to Angelo State a week later in a 34-30 win before the 708-yard performance McMurry hung on the Buffs.
But those numbers don't tell the whole story.
Once the Buffs got a 24-7 lead on a 21-yard touchdown pass from senior quarterback Dustin Vaughan to sophomore wide receiver Jarrian Rhone with 40 seconds to play in the first quarter, the WT defense never allowed McMurry to come within striking distance.
"Everybody will be all ticked off at the defensive guys because there were like 700 and some yards, but we never let it get within 14 points once we got to the second half, they kept it at a three-score game, and they got the stops, and the offense went down and scored and was able to stretch it to 30-some at one point," Nesbitt said.
"(McMurry got) a late score at the end of the half to put up something, and then they get a couple other just big plays and some other things happened in there that really aren't (the defenders' fault).
"It's just part of the game, and it ends up in yards and points and the whole deal, but they did what they had to do, and that was win."
Nesbitt admitted coaches sometimes lose focus on whether or not they actually won the game because they get caught up in how the game looked, and the same is undoubtedly true for fans. Saturday's game was ugly defensively for both teams, but the game still counts in the win column the same as all the others for WT.
In fact, the Buffs have had a season strikingly similar to the NFL's Denver Broncos.
Both teams have championship hopes, they have offenses led by historically good quarterbacks who put up incredible numbers week after week but their defenses have allowed a bunch of yards and points, which eventually caught up to both teams.
WT's defense couldn't hold a 27-3 halftime lead against Tarleton State, and Denver could not come back from a 33-14 third-quarter deficit Oct. 20 in a 39-33 loss to the Indianapolis Colts, which tallied 334 total yards.
Both teams will also need likely need their defenses to, if not steal a game, at least contain their opponents enough to allow the offense a chance to build up a lead.
For WT, that game might be the final one of the regular season Nov. 16 in Wichita Falls against No. 18 Midwestern State (6-1, 3-1 LSC), which is a game that could be for the conference title since Tarleton State (5-2, 4-1 LSC) lost its first conference game, 22-20, on Saturday to Texas A&M-Commerce.
WT will first face Eastern New Mexico (4-3, 2-1 LSC) on Saturday and West Georgia (4-4) Nov. 9, and each game will be at home, but one of the Buffs' defensive leaders knows they can't afford anything close to another 57-point or 708-yard game.
"We've got to execute better," said Taylor McCuller, a senior linebacker who had seven tackles and a 36-yard fumble recovery for a touchdown Saturday. "We didn't play our best football, but as long as we stay together and respond to this correctly, there's no reason why we can't get things fixed."
Most importantly, WT won the game, and if the Buffs achieve their ultimate goal of a national championship, few will remember the imperfect details along the way during this season.

Happy Dreams Of Murder
I'll tell you what is wrong with me
I hope you will not weep
Happy dreams of marder are enchanting my nights sleep
Nothing wakes me late at night sedatives stopped all that
I wouldn't even wake up if you hit me with a bat
My dreams are filled with bloodshed the massacre won't stop
I can't restrain the pleasure i gain from spilling every drop

CALL FOR PAPERS: Stability International Journal
Date Submitted:
Announcement ID:
For full details, see http://www.stabilityjournal.org/announcement/view/1
Scope of The Journal
Stability welcomes articles from a range of disciplines, including political science, development studies, international relations, sociology, criminology, anthropology, psychology and the law, among others. The journal will focus upon stabilisation through international missions as well as by governments within their own territories. This may include crime prevention efforts or counter-narcotics strategies insofar as they include a range of means and tactics (e.g., coercive force, diplomacy, communications, humanitarian or development assistance, etc.). However, for demonstration purposes, the following topics would likely appear relatively regularly:
• Civil-military interaction
• Conflict prevention/risk reduction
• Constitutional and legislative affairs
• Correlates of conflict
• Corruption and illicit networks
• Counterinsurgency tactics
• Crime reduction
• Demographics and human geography
• Disarmament, demobilisation & reintegration
• Economic growth and livelihoods
• Governance and political legitimacy
• International cooperation/organization
• Judicial/justice sector reform
• Law and legal regimes
• Organised crime and gang violence
• Peacekeeping or peace support operations
• Security sector reform
• Stability operations
• State- and nation-building
• Urban studies and challenges
• Whole of government or whole of system approaches
Many other topics will be considered for publication. If you are uncertain as to whether your research would match this journal's criteria, please contact the editors.
Article Types
Stability will primarily publish research articles but will also feature shorter "practice notes" and "commentaries" insofar as they are well informed, critical and contribute to knowledge and thinking in a useful manner.
• Research articles must be between 5,000 and 8,000 words, including all notes but not including the reference list/bibliography. Under special circumstances, articles up to 10,000 words may be accepted for publication. Research articles should present original findings based upon rigorous empirical or theoretical research.
• Practice notes must be between 2,000 and 4,000 words, including all notes but not including the reference list/bibliography. These should provide an account of a programme related to stabilisation which appears to be particularly effective, ineffective, innovative or otherwise notable. These should NOT comprise glowing case studies of projects implemented by the author or his/her organisation and must contribute useful analysis.
• Commentaries should be between 1,000 and 2,000 words and should reflect upon or critique a "happening" such as a policy shift, release of a major study or other notable occurrence related to stabilisation. Commentaries are particularly welcome from distinguished specialists. Authors interested in submitting a commentary piece should discuss the content with the editors before submitting a manuscript.

The process of equity listing on the Exchange consists of several steps. Its
time requirement and complexity also depend on the "type" of listing the company
intends to realise:
1."Simple" listing on the Exchange, without a capital increase (issue of new
shares) or public offering of existing shares (exit). In this case, when the company
appears on the market, it creates a future possibility for flexible funding.
At the same time, it "learns" how to comply with requirements associated with
maintaining its shares on the Exchange, while allowing the company to continuously
test company performance in the public markets. Performing well during this presence
on the Exchange improves a company's conditions for raising future funds.
A firm may benefit from this option when it does not need additional capital
at the time of the listing, or when the firm's owners intend to sell their stakes
or a portion thereof only in the medium or long term.
On the other hand, going public on an Exchange undoubtedly creates a challenge
that the company has to cope with even in the period preceding raising the actual
funds or prior to exit.
2."Traditional public offering": a listing where the admission to the Exchange
is coupled with the offer of a share package to the public, i.e. either the issue
of new shares or sale by owners or a combination of the two.

A show called Naked in the House demands transparency, so we begin with a disclosure: photographer Brent Mykytyshyn is a friend of Swerve. But even if that were not the case, we'd find his project—11 photographers were each given 30 minutes to shoot a model in a space they'd never seen—intriguing. The results go on view Wednesday at the Art Gallery of Calgary, so keep your shirt on.
Wednesday, Feb. 20 at the Art Gallery of Calgary, 117 8th Ave. S.W. 7-10 p.m. 403-770-1350, artgallerycalgary.org.

Gaudi and the ship
... cleaning the windows, but no the spray is for our hands. I guess they are concerned about sickness and since some people do not have good hygiene practices they are taking matters into their own hands.
We get on board about 4pm. The hallways are so small and it is even worse because everyone's luggage is being brought up. We finally find our balcony cabin, 10576, and neither of our key cards work. Hmm... maybe what we thought we heard ...
... yet! We did do some sight seeing around town. The first place we visited was the Columbus Monument - mostly because both of us were confused as to why the monument was there. As far as we were aware Barcelona had nothing to do with Columbus' voyage. At least we were basically correct, it didn't; but that's where the Spanish Court was on his return, and where he presented all of his results to the crown. So there you go! From there it was off to the shopping districts ...

... fire safety reasons, they don't have regular candles anymore. We went to the waterfront to see the cruise ships and the marina. Christopher Columbus landed here after he discovered America and there is a Columbus statue. We came back via Las Ramblas, which is a pedestrian walkway through the lower half of the old city and filled with tourist stops. Today is Monday, but a holiday and we couldn't believe the crowds! ...

New Editor of Time Magazine Has a Background in History and Says It's VitalBreaking News
I recently returned to TIME after two years of running the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia, a wonderful new museum and educational center on Independence Mall. While there, I got to know the great historian David McCullough, who has been on a one-man campaign to end the epidemic of what he calls historical illiteracy. I believe that our Making of America series is an antidote to historical illiteracy, which David describes as a great danger to our democracy. Being an American is not based on a common ancestry, a common religion, even a common culture--it's based on accepting an uncommon set of ideas. And if we don't understand those ideas, we don't value them; and if we don't value them, we don't protect them. A nation can never be ignorant and free, said Thomas Jefferson, our third Making of America cover subject, and one of the goals of our series is to help explain what makes us a nation and a people....

Rain chains have been around for years and are an alternative to standard downspouts. Traditionally, they are a series of copper cups hung on a chain from your gutter. Water drains down into the cups and is dispersed, making a neat noise during the process. Well, you can make your own from tin cans. Just drill a hole through the bottom of each can and place them along a length of chain. You can paint them or drill decorative holes into them. Attach the chain to the gutter in place of a plain downspout.
Q: The GFCI outlet in our kitchen seems to get tripped a couple of times a week, even when there's nobody in the room. What should we look for or do to fix it? – J.K.
A: It could just be a bad outlet or breaker. But don't assume so. Have an electrician take a closer look at it and make the repairs. You wouldn't want it to stop working in an emergency, especially in a kitchen.
Circuits with GFCIs should be tested once a month and replaced if they don't function properly. They offer a great safety feature for homeowners.
Tips from readers
Dear Carrells: I love my humidifier, especially during the long winters. The only problem that I've ever really had with it is the buildup of mineral deposits inside the water bowl. I've tried cleaning it and this worked but was very time-consuming. Last week I found a plastic bag that fits perfectly inside the unit as a liner. So far, so good. I plan to change this out once a week, but I can see that I won't have to be cleaning it anymore. Hooray! – N.T.
Dear Al: We love your idea for using chalkboard paint on walls and doors, and did it in our son's room years ago. Well, now I've done it to our refrigerator. The whole appliance was black, so we just painted the chalkboard paint on the front doors. It's so neat. We leave notes on it all the time, and the kid's love to draw designs on it. It can be different every day if we want. It worked well, even on the fingerprint-resistant surface. – E.A.
Dear Kelly: Last weekend I made waffles for the family. My waffle iron is great, but was getting a little wobbly and I was sort of afraid it might fall or spill. Luckily it didn't, but afterward when I was cleaning it, I noticed that one of the rubber pads under the legs was missing. I have no idea what happened to it, but I found some at my hardware store so I replaced it. That sure was a simple fix! – S.B.
Dear Carrells: We had a large, empty space over our kitchen cabinets like a lot of people do. We talked about starting a collection of something to put up there or put some fake plants and/or baskets in the space. We finally decided to store all of our serving dishes and platters up there. Some are put on easels to show them off better.
We did put some small fake plants up there, just to accent the plates. We think it looks pretty neat and have gotten some great "likes" from our friends and family. – J. & T.K.

May 15, 13 at 5:08pm ^A pictorial journey to think deeply
Log in to remove this advertisement
Many people believe that life has no purpose, or no truth. There is no reason or meaning, we are here and that's it, that's the brute fact. But let us try to really think about this for a moment.
Look at the picture below.
What can we see? nothing. Absolutely nothing. If I told you that this world has no meaning, will that be hard to believe? of course not, because no meaning can be seen, nothing stands out, it's complete emptiness.
Imagine that we are external observers to this empty world, we are not part of it, but we can observe it. Imagine we continue to travel through the darkness, on and on, with no direction, no amount of time, no reference, no reason.
But then...we begin... to notice something. A small light. We approach it and find this.
Now what will we be thinking? Will we think Oh it's just more meaningless darkness, or would we be thinking This is very strange, very profound, there is something peculiar here, it does not resemble the darkness which we have been enveloped by... this is something else.
Then we will immediately ask ourselves, What is it doing here?. We would come to realise through logic that of course this is here for a reason, we may not know the reason but it definitely has a reason. It shouldn't be here if there was no reason, it was suppose to be like the rest, like the darkness, but yet it's here, standing out.
I'm sure you know by now that the darkness here represents non existence, but the passage which leads outside is life. The very existence of life means there is a meaning behind it, it's not without purpose. On the other hand, the lack of existence of anything, is typical of a meaningless realm. We have to think deeply on our existence, it is incredibly important.
I made this to stimulate readers into thinking deeply.

quote Praetorian_LordThis is not a teleological argument. A teleological argument states that because something is complex, there must be intelligent design behind it. That's obviously not true. What Azad G states is that there is meaning in life simply because we exist, because we're not nothing. We stand out from nothing, we are not the norm and therefor are significant. Whether someone finds this meaning actually meaningful is more of a glass half-full or half-empty deal.
Also, refusing to argue because there are people smarter than you is true stupidity.
Azad G Sadly, this is not the meaning most people are looking for. They are too selfish, they want something that applies to them. A goal to follow. Something that gives them significance over others. Something that makes them the center of the universe. They fail to see the awesomeness of the universe, and no amount of good intent, wonderful insight, or objective logic will change that.

May 16, 13 at 4:28am ^re: A pictorial journey to think deeply
Aulis Vaara I made this to show to people who believe that life has no purpose or meaning may actually need to think again and deeper. There is nothing wrong with wanting a purpose which is applied to you, so that you have a goal to follow. But I agree, if they want to be the center of the Universe and have significance over others then they are blind.
Now the question we have to ask ourselves is, if there is a meaning and purpose to life, what does this suggest? Does it not mean we have been created?
Because if our world resembled the blackness, then I won't be surprised that there is no creator, because there is nothing to suggest that. But our world is not like that, it's full of structure and life. So to say it has no creator is like saying our world is equivalent to the utter darkness.
(Also how do I highlight names on a post?)
Also for KR_1250
The first picture was nothing but a black image. The second was a door surrounded by the complete darkness, but is opened which lets the outside light come in sightly.

quote Azad GTo highlight names you put an "@" symbol before the persons name. With two worded names such as your own you needto put an "@" symbol before and after the name.
So @ Azad G @ becomes Azad G.
Plus your argument seems to be the argument from complexity. I.E the universe is too complex to have resulted naturally which means it is lacking any predetermined meaning.
Its an argument which has its merits but one i dont personally adhere to. The only answers i have ever heard to explain it tend to be the existance of a god. Which itself must be more complex than the universe and so requires its own explenation and design making it a kind of circular or fractal argument.
In any case i see meaning as a pretty subjective term. Dont have meaning? Find some, make some, borrow some. We make and create our own meaning as we live. I dont have any belief in a god but have never felt my life lacked meaning. Or pehraps its the opposite, perhaps i just dont see an indistinct absolute meaning as very important and therefore lacking one doesnt negatively affect me in any way. Hard to tell. As for the universe as a whole i find it indescribably beautiful and poetic that something so vast and complex exists for no real definable purpose.
Bestowing it with a simplistic singular purpose like an abode created by a god for little mortals to live in sort of ruins something quite grand for me personally. I see unfathomable beauty in a meaningless and naturalistic universe untouched and unspoiled by conscious and subjectively moral purpose and meaning.
But then i am also often an idiot who talks bollocks. I certainly dont assume i have the answer.

Azad G In that you are wrong. It does not suggest a creator at all, it only shows us that our universe is not trivial. KR_1250 is correct, invoking a god at all is a circular argument that simply leads nowhere. Not that you can explain the universe without some serious paradoxes, but a sapient creator is just another example of anthropocentrism. In fact, I would sooner pin the purpose of the universe on achieving sentience than on fulfilling the whims of a sentient creator.

May 16, 13 at 12:06pm ^re: A pictorial journey to think deeply
But there must be an origin to everything, it cannot keep going back forever. If the Universe was created by something, and that something was created by something, and so on and so forth, if that goes on forever, how can the chain be ever set into motion? how would our Universe have finally come about?
Therefore it had to have an eternal origin, we may not be able to comprehend how that is, because we ourselves are not eternal, but we know that's the most logical explanation. The main line of difference here is: Is the origin intelligent?
If it is not, then it doesn't make sense as to why our world is full of structure and life, nor does it make sense as to how an unintelligent origin produces an intelligent creature that can question it's own existence. Non-intelligence creating intelligence, is that possible?. How can you run away from this flaw if you do not believe in a creator?
But if the eternal origin is intelligent, then it makes sense as to where all this structure and life came from. And it makes sense as to why intelligent creatures exist.
Perhaps it's because we don't like the idea that we have a supreme force over us, but if that's the truth then we can't run away from it.

We would just go around in circles, or rather just on for an eternity if we couldn't comprehend that we came from 'nothing', somehow. There must have been a beginning and that beginning was likely nothing but somehow transformed into something. Bizarre, I know. It's only because what we know (which people say is less than 0.1% of everything which is ironic) is that we can't have something from nothing. Then again, we used to think if we went over the 'edge' of the Earth, we would fall off.

No clear thinking person will ever come to the conclusion that the Universe came from nothing. It has so many flaws I don't even know where to begin. Every laws of physics is broken. Nothing makes sense about it. Anyone that would rather believe in that then a creator shows you how close minded and biased people can be. If someone is going to mention quantum vacuum, then that is not Nothing, it is an eternal origin scenario without intelligence. Nothing is oblivion, no energy, no particle, the absolute lack of anything.

May 16, 13 at 9:50pm ^re: A pictorial journey to think deeply
Our universe is spacetime. Actually, our universe is "everything" because that's the definition of universe, but I digress. There is nothing BEFORE the universe, because there was no time before the universe. It simply is. The big bang is one of the poles of time, though whether or not there is another pole is up for debate.
One could also use that as an argument, if there is no beginning in time, how can a deity ever create the universe. Creation is a beginning in time. In fact, conscious thought requires time too. There is no possibility for a conscious creator outside of time and thus outside of the universe. Not that this has ever deterred creationists.
You started with a good and meaningful opening post, Azad G, but this has devolved into just another Does god exist?-rant.

May 17, 13 at 1:59am ^re: A pictorial journey to think deeply
quote Azad GLots of assumptions there man. Saying the universe has an eternal origin is at the moment simply an assumption. Sounds logical, may or may not be the case. IMO Our universe, (or our localised measurable expanding section of the multiverse depending on your current scientific view) most definately had an origin in an accelerated expansion. So there was at least a localised origin and perhaps a global origin.
But that coming from nothing, coming from some pre-existing region of reality requiring its own origin explenation or from an indistinct unidentifiable conscious being who somehow already existed despite the contradiction that throws up OR the possibility rarely discussed that existance as a whole has no begining all seem varying degrees of unlikely to me. Hence my agnostisism.
I guess in essence thats why im agnostic. All explenations of realities origins seem unlikely. For me a creator simply seems the most unlikely but thats just personal opinion. It generates more contradictions than any other because it encorporates EVERY other contradictions and adds its own.
quoteIts not really a flaw. Again you assume that intelegence must be created by intelegence. That very rule contradicts itself in the context of an ultimate creator. That means the original intelgence must have been created by... etc etc. Circular argument again.
quoteAgain this contradicts itself. Your intelegent creator must have, by YOUR own rules been created by a higher intelegnce. This argument has no identifiable end. Also for my liking envoking a creator doesnt help explain the universe. If the creator exists then existance must also be a prerequisite or else where does this creator reside? Existance, reality, the universe or what ever you want to call it must have been here for teh creator to have somewhere to "be" if that makes any sense. Why would a "creator" have to create a place where it must already be?
quoteThats bordering on a sheap shot IMO. I wouldnt agree with that. A counter shot would be that the faithful are running away from a big scary universe just because its difficult to comprehend. I dont adhere to either. I try to avoid that kind of provocative gesturing. Desnt really help me understand anything any better.
quote Azad GJust read that bit. Me outy.
Dont really wanna get involved in another theological shit slinging match on this site. Someone always drags the argument through the mud.
The only response to that is a direct retaliation using equally offensive assumptions which i dont really personally adhere to and just cant be arsed with. Your already transparent attempt at faithful preaching disguised as a somewhat neutral philosophical/theological conversation has been quite undeniably exposed good sir. But do have a good un. No harsh feelings.

Ok maybe I got abit emotional. Let me start again.
My reasoning was abit misunderstood, so let me make it very clear every step of the way.
We call ourselves intellectual beings, we call ourselves rational thinkers, then let us put that to the test.
Where did the entire world come from?
Scenario 1)
It's a never ending cycle
What this scenario suggests, is that everything is brought into existence by something previous, and the cycle will never end.

Sorry for the cheesiness of these images, but it illustrates the scenario very well. As we can see, the image will never stop zooming, and this reflects the case where the Universe never has a beginning, it will keep going backwards.
The main problem of this is: how is the process triggered in the first place?. If you give abit of thought, you will begin to realise that it doesn't make sense as to where the produced things came from, if we cannot reach it's beginning. Its almost as if they are coming from nothing.
Scenario 2)
The beginning of everything; the eternal origin
Imagine Scenario 1, except that we finally hit the brick wall at the end. This is the beginning of everything. It doesn't matter what the nature of this origin is, one thing we know is that it did not begin to exist, it was always there. Nothing caused it, because if it was brought into existence by something else, we just go back to scenario 1. So if it is intelligent, or not intelligent, it doesn't matter; it does not need anything to cause it, it is eternal and will always be there.
So using reason, we can see as to why the first scenario is impossible. So we are left with the second scenario, which makes far more sense. Now we accept that scenario 2 makes the most sense, let us now probe deeper.
Does this eternal origin have intelligence?
Remember, if it has intelligence or not, it still has no beginning, and doesn't need something to create it or make it exist.
Now if it is not intelligent, it means everything in the world was produced by non-intelligence. We know this because our world is not eternal, things are brought into existence and things also come to an end. We did not exist 100 years ago, but were brought to life recently.
Now the question is: Are we willing to accept that something which is not intelligence is capable of producing something very complex?
(Remember this isn't Everything which has intelligence or complexity needs to have been created. On the other hand, this is Everything which is intelligent or complex that has begun to exist should have an intelligent creator.)
The reason this is not rational, is because everything we have experienced in our lives tells us that non-intelligence, or processes without control does not produce significant structure or order. If we are willing to accept that a non intelligent process can produce complexity and order, it goes against everything that we have experienced and come to know.
Therefore is it not rational, and is it not conforming to what we know from knowledge, to say that complex systems/structure which are produced, are produced by intelligent beings that use knowledge, design, planning and control.
That is why the most logical and rational conclusion, is that the eternal origin which begun everything and did not begin itself, is intelligent. Which is God, who the whole world is talking about.
EDIT: There is a last point I want to make, but I can't now I have to go somewhere. I will do it within the last hour, it is very important.

Disclaimer: I do not play scholar's mate, I only want to know how to get an advantage when white plays it against me.
I don't get mated on the fourth move, but sometimes an over sight will get me mated when the queen is still close to my king. A link to a website would be appreciated.
1. e4 e5 2. Qh5 then sac a pawn with 2. ... Nf6 3. Qxe5+ Be7 then win time against the white queen.
thanks, that's exactly what I was looking for.
Alternatively, you can play 2...Nc6 and go for a lovely reverse King's Indian Attack.
You have a slight advantage, but nothing game-winning. This is because 2. Qh5 is not a great move, obviously, but it doesnt lose the game and allows Black to equalize easily.
This site is loaded with plenty of tools to improve your game regardless of your rating or skill level.
For example: From your home page you could simply click on the Learn tab then mouse down until you see Openings and click on Game Explorer. From there you simply drag the pieces for the 1st couple of moves to find the name of your opening and its ECO #. Many times as in this example you will also find games in the data base you can view.
The following is just 1 example of how to deal with your opening delima:
I shoud have mentioned once you've found your opening you will also see how many games are in the data base. As long as it is not too many games you should be able to view them and look at wins, losses, and draws to learn from each.
In the above example Kings Pawn Opening, Wayward Queen Attack ECO C20, the game explorer shows 18 games in data base (view games) yet when you click on view games only 6 games are viewable: 5 games with the 2. ... Nc6 continuation (black wins 60% to whites 20% and draws 20%) and 1 game with the 2. ... Bd6 that being a win for white.
For Black, the f7 square is a target that White will try to attack. Look for the telltale signs of of an f7 attack. These are Bishop and Queen moves that position both pieces on a diagonal the intersects with f7. In the game at the top of this page, Black assumes the White Queen is after a hung pawn and a King check. Black defends with Nc6. By then its took late. The move pawn to g6 pushes the Queen back and would be the correct choice. The Queen will try to drop down to f3 and which point you block with your Nf6. Just keep your eyes out for the signs of the 4 move checkmate. Early prevention is the solution. I teach my students how to defend against this type of checkmate because it comes up in junior level games.

Andre Hedrick: In Memoriam
Zack's Kernel News
Chronicler Zack Brown reports on the latest news, views, dilemmas, and developments within the Linux kernel community.
This edition of Zack's Kernel News is dedicated to Andre Hedrick, a prolific kernel hacker who committed suicide in July. He did tons of kernel work for many years on the IDE driver, and later the ATA subsystem it morphed into.
I remember him as being one of the more argumentative of kernel folks. He always seemed to be explaining why something was absolutely required or something was absolutely impossible because of the convoluted insanity of IDE hardware. The problem often was: There are hardware standards, and then there is reality. Often the hardware manufacturers didn't quite conform to the standards, but Linux had to support them anyway. Sometimes the standards themselves had missed some crucial nuance. Andre undoubtedly found it frustrating to debate such issues with people who he felt didn't fully understand the hardware under discussion.

'Before I Die' wall installed at Sky High
Death has a way of clarifying life, or so say great philosophers and New Orleans artist Candy Chang. It has a way of making us examine the kind of person we want to be, the life we want to live, the people who are important to us.
On Tuesday, people in the Bay View neighborhood were confronted by the finiteness of their lives as a result of one of Chang's projects. A wall that reads "Before I die I want to..." and has little buckets of colored chalk so people can fill in the blanks was installed at the Sky High Skateboard Shop and Gallery, 2501 S. Howell Ave., and in cities across the U.S. on Tuesday. »Read Full Blog Post(2)

The Mountaineers, lackadaisical following a weekend series win over Texas to close the 43-year-old Hawley Field, never led until stunning Hokies' ace Sean Keselica for a pair of runs in bottom of the eighth inning to take a 4-3 victory in Princeton, W.Va. and move to 6-0 against ACC teams this season.
Leading 3-2, Virginia Tech head coach Patrick Mason turned to Keselica, his Friday night starter, to try and steal a game from a far superior foe. The move backfired, as the lefthander, making his first relief appearance of the season on just four days rest, hit Cam O'Brien and then gave up back-to-back doubles to Ryan McBroom and Jacob Rice that plated O'Brien an tied the game at 3-3. After the junior intentionally walked Brad Johnson to set-up the double play with one out, Justin Fox made the hustle play of the game, beating out a fielder's choice grounder to third in which Tech failed to turn two as McBroom plated the winning run.
The turn of events had to stun the Hokies' skipper, who, in addition to inserting Keselica on short rest, made four other position moves to try and solidify his defense for the final three outs. It didn't matter, as WVU, winners of nine of 10, plated the pair of runs and sent Sean Carley to the mound in the ninth inning for the save. Carley set down the VT in just four hitters for his third save of the season and Tech's 11th loss in a dozen games.
"The teams energy was low, but that's the kind of thing you have to battle through," West Virginia head coach Randy Mazey said. "We have guys that can come in and produce and that's what good teams do."
Including midweek starter Corey Walter. The senior, a Friday night starter for WVU during the 2012 season, pitched effectively in his second straight midweek start. The right-hander, who picked up the 10-3 win over Marshall on April 23, found his offspeed location in the fourth inning and battled through seven full, allowing two runs, both earned, on nine hits. He struck out four and walked two in leaving with a no decision. Ryan Tezak (4-0) pitched the eighth, and, despite allowing the go-ahead run, picked up the win. Keselica (3-4) took the loss.
Billy Fleming, McBroom and Rice led West Virginia (27-17) with a combined seven hits from their 3-4-5 spots. Fleming went 3-for-4 with a huge run scored. The second baseman, as fundamentally sound as any WVU player, turned a routine single into a one-base error in the sixth inning to tie the game. The junior roped a shot to left that was bobbled by Tech's Phil Sciretta and, hustling out of the box, saw the mishandle and was able to slide safely into second to set-up the RBI single to center by Rice for the 2-2 tie.
Rice went 2-for-4 with two RBI and one double. McBroom was 2-for-4 with an RBI and the winning run scored. Sciretta, besides bobbling Fleming's hit, was a one-man wrecking crew for the Hokies (19-28-1). The sophomore went 2-for-4 with two RBI and a run scored to account for every VT run. Virginia Tech actually outhit West Virginia 11-10, but left one more runner on with eight to the Mountaineers' seven.
Virginia Tech starter Aaron McGarity (0-4) took a no-decision. The freshman mixed his offspeed stuff with excellent late fastball movement in going went 6 2/3 innings while allowing two runs, one earned, on eight hits with six strikeouts and a walk. WVU was never able to get many quality swings on McGarity save a foul ball by O'Brien that just avoided becoming a homer by hooking outside the right foul pole and a seventh-inning liner by Shaun Wood that reached the warning track. McBroom's double in the eighth inning off Keselica hit off the top of the fence.
The teams were tied 2-2 after six innings. Virginia Tech had a three one-run leads, scoring in the top of the second, sixth ad eighth innings, with WVU answering in bottom of the fourth, sixth and eighth. Tech plated its first run via Ricky Surum's single to left on a 3-1 pitch to score Sciretta. McBroom tied it for the Mountaineers on a single through the left side to bring in O'Brien. Tech answered with Sciretta's single to center, only to see Fleming make the leftfielder play in the bottom half with his hustle play to tie the game and set-up the heroics.
A sold-out crowd of 2,084 attended, the majority of which were Mountaineer fans. WVU centerfielder Bobby Boyd, who leads the team with a .376 batting average, sat out the game due to a minor injury. West Virginia, which has beaten Tech twice in a row, now travels to Kansas for a Big 12 series from May 9-11. Friday's game will start at 7 p.m., Saturday's game will begin at 3 p.m. and Sunday's finale is scheduled for a 2 p.m. start. All times are Eastern.

Roll Baby Roll
My good friend and his wife came to town and stayed overnight for a visit. It was just like every other time – drink beer and play video games as the ladies chat and maul the baby. Little did we know, Little Miss has some new skills that she was waiting to show off. It was in the afternoon, Little Miss was chilling on the floor watching daddy make a fool of himself playing Xbox. She then decided that is was show time and with ninja like flexibility and a flick of her legs she rolled over onto her belly. While this was nothing new for me as she had rolled over a few times already, this was the first time our friends saw our little monkey in action. After a few pictures and cheers for Little Miss we...Read More
Overcoming Baby Sleep Regression
Three weeks ago I wrote a post about Little Miss's recent bout of sleep regression. I soon noticed an increase in visitors searching the exact same topic. Apparently this is quite the popular topic for parents so I decided to attack the topic again and go a little further into detail on what sleep regression is and how it effect babies. In a nutshell, sleep regression is the interruption of your baby's otherwise normal sleeping routine. Parents of good sleepers (Like me!) will notice the biggest change as their once sound sleeper has turned into a crying monster incapable of sleeping for more than a couple hours successively. While sleep regression seems to effect babies at around the same developmental ages, the cause can be very different. Like I said, there are many things that can shake up your...Read More

Baby Shoe Explosion
So what's the deal with baby shoes? We were cleaning out Little Miss's room over the weekend and was almost buried alive by the mountain of shoes that fell out of her closet. Everything from sandals to snow boots came pouring out like I spun triple cherries and won the jackpot. This little 4 month old has more shoes that she has out grown then I've owned my entire life. She has a pair or Pumas that won't make it to spring before they are outgrown – that cost more than the shoes I wore at my wedding. Want to know what the real kicker is? She doesn't even walk!
