The Schirmer test is a well-established clinical procedure performed to help diagnose chronic dry eye disorders, such as Sjogren's syndrome. The test involves inserting a strip of filter paper between the eyeball and the lower eyelid for several minutes to collect natural tears. Based on the amount of moisture absorbed, a doctor can determine the severity of dryness. The procedure usually takes about ten minutes to complete and can be performed in an optometrist's office, an ophthalmology center, a hospital, or a specialty lab.
A patient who is scheduled for a Schirmer test is usually instructed to avoid using eye drops and wearing contact lenses on the day of the exam to make sure that findings will be accurate. During the procedure, a small, thin strip of sterile filter paper is inserted in the lower eyelid. The patient is then instructed to gently keep his or her eyes closed for at least five minutes. Anesthetic eye drops may be applied if the test causes discomfort or irritation. The paper is removed after the allotted time so the eye doctor can evaluate how much moisture was collected.
Assessing the results of a Schirmer test is not an exact science, but most doctors agree that if the moist spot is less than about 0.4 inches (about 1 centimeter) in diameter, there is reason to conclude that a dry eye condition may exist. If the spot is larger, tear secretion is considered normal and other causes of a patient's symptoms must be considered. Not all clinics and optometrists agree on the threshold between normal and abnormal readings, so a person may be declared healthy even if the Schirmer test shows a smaller than average moisture spread. In addition, value ranges may be adjusted according to a patient's age. People over the age of 60, for instance, generally have less tear production than younger people without reason for concern.
By itself, a Schirmer test is not sufficient to make a clinical diagnosis. Dry eye symptoms can be caused by a number of different factors, and the test simply indicates whether further investigation is necessary. Before performing the test, a doctor usually asks about medication use, any known allergies, familial history of dry eye, and the length of time a patient has been experiencing symptoms. If a Schirmer test suggests the possibility of Sjogren's syndrome, a tissue sample may need to be collected from the tear duct and analyzed to confirm the diagnosis.

text: Pardon the objectification of a woman here, which is a picture you could find in a Sport's Illustrated Swimsuit issue or a Victoria's Secret catalog, but I do it to make a point, and to get my point noticed. I just watched part of an episode of Love Bites on NBC and what I saw was heavily sexual in nature. NBC is coming out with a weekly show having to do with Playboy. Listen, I'm no prude, but a few decades ago the American Family Association would be blowing their top at these programs, and effectively boycotting their commercial sponsors. Yet sex continues to sell. Robert Price argues in the Afterward of The End of Christianity, which can be read on Amazon, that sex will be the undoing of Evangelicalism. These kind of programs will have more to do with the undoing of Evangelicalism than probably any book debunking it. Mark my words.

According to a recent US Weekly issue, a source close to them says Levi Johnston and Bristol Palin are spending more time together and that they may be dating again! The 20 and 19 years olds, respectively, have had quite a history, and one that they can't easily walk away from. Keep reading for all the info, with more pictures and a video.
Their son Tripp was born in December of 2008, and shortly after the couple was engaged. That did not last long however as they quickly broke it off. Since then the only time we have heard about the pair is when they are in court fighting over custody and child support. But now that the daughter is more on her own, things may be changing!
According the anonymous source, Sarah may have been what was keeping Levi Johnston and Bristol Palin apart.
"Now that Mama Palin is out of the picture and Bristol is on her own in Anchorage, they spend more time together than most people think. Levi even stays overnight. I even think they are back together."
Quickly thoughts of them dating again and being a complete family rushed around! Maybe by the time they can legally have a drink, they will be married and happy. Well as for the reps on either side, they don't seem think so.
The baby's daddy's manager, Tank Jones, states that they have no intention of being a couple again, but that they are working on their relationship for their son. On the other side, lawyer Thomas Van Flein says they have a "joint interest" in doing whatever is best for the child. They have been trying to figure out child support, and maybe now with them working on relating, it will be settled.
It sure isn't a straight forward situation for Levi Johnston and Bristol Palin. They are two very young adults, with an 18 month old child who needs caring for and love from both parents. What do you think of the rekindling rumors? Be sure to tell me what you think, and check out these photos and video!

Dates 1 Apr '13 to 1 May '13
Flexible? Somewhat
Est. Cost 2,000 - 3,000 GBP (GBP United Kingdom Pounds)
Type Travel Partners Wanted
Name West Coast Roadtrip
I am looking to fly over to America to San Francisco (possibly further North) any time from March next year. The plan is to rent a car to road trip down the coast. I have also been looking at work away and other such sites for opportunities to keep cost down.
I am in love with martial arts, so that is the main reason for the trip. I compete in Brazilian Jiujitsu, boxing K1 and MMA and want to train at some of the best gyms in the States and hopefully compete while I'm there. Depending on how much I save I may have a second venture to South America but that is a story for another day.
Looking for people who may want to join for parts of the trip or have any recommendations.

Basic Research Drives Defense Technologies
Thursday, February 28, 2008, Senate Dirksen Office Building, SD-562
Introductory Remarks
Glenn Ruskin
Director, Legislative & Government Affairs
American Chemical Society
Briefing Summary
The basic research supported by the Department of Defense and conducted primarily by universities provides the foundation for future military technologies. Yet DoD's investment in basic research, under its 6.1 account, has in recent years remained flat in real terms and represents a declining portion of the Department's S&T investment. Growing recognition of this fact was reflected in a 2007 memo by then-Director
of Defense Research and Engineering John Young, warning that the Defense Department's S&T program "is not keeping pace" with today's challenges, and decrying the decline of "the fraction of S&T investment devoted to foundational science, where game-breaking warfighting advances usually occur…to less than 15% of the S&T budget." This briefing will highlight the importance of basic research to national security and U.S. competitiveness.

Well, I cried at the end, which was the point I suppose, welling up as David Haig read Rudyard Kipling's poem My Boy Jack, written after the heavy losses of the Battle of Jutland in 1916, but given a wrenching personal particularity by the use of his own son's name. Jack had been killed at the Battle of Loos the year before, shortly after his 18th birthday and only after Kipling had used his fame and influence to lever an insurmountable obstacle out of the way of his son's enlistment; the fact that he could barely see beyond his nose. Kipling's short-sightedness about the nature of the war effectively cancelled out Jack's life-saving myopia, and it was a source of self-recrimination for him ever afterwards."If any question why we died/Tell them, because our fathers lied", he wrote later.
In last night's My Boy Jack, David Haig, moulded by nature to play Kipling, told the story of the writer's sacrifice of his son and inadvertently demonstrated, once again, how difficult it is to keep the old lies of valour and glory from seeping back in to accounts of those events. The done thing now - as universal and uncontradictable as bellicosity was in 1914 - is to shake one's head sorrowfully at the innocence of those who thought that war might be an ennobling experience. Instead, we insist on its horror, and, for perfectly good reasons of decorum, draw a veil over evidence that it might debase those who take part in it. Should it matter to us that John Kipling, a boy of 18, acquitted himself well in his final battle and was highly regarded by his men? Surely not if we mean what we say about the betrayal of putting mere boys into such places. But it does, and it did to Haig's drama too, which was at pains to represent Jack's last minutes as heroic rather than abject.
Daniel Radcliffe was well casthere - the Potter squint and earnest sense ofdestiny a natural fit for Jack, who, like countless boys of his generation, enthusiastically collaborated in his own destruction. And Haig's trench scenes were a cut above the usual inadvertent poetry, the last agonising minutes before going over the top grubbied by obscenity and puking and loosening of bladder and bowels. He'd captured, too, the torture of hope that Jack's parents found themselves exposed to - the word"Missing"on the telegram sending them scouring through photographs of prisoners of war to see if their son might still be alive. But, through no fault of his own, I don't think he could entirely keep a strain of sweet transcendence out of his ending.
That even the fiercest and most knowledgeable opponents of the war were subject to the same seduction was demonstrated in the documentary Wilfred Owen - a Remembrance Tale, in which Jeremy Paxman ce ebrated the best known of the First World War poets. Paxman started by going over the top, wildly, arguing that there was a case for saying that Owen"re-invented modern poetry itself". Fortunately, he abandoned the attempt to secure this implausible salient in favour of a straightforward account of Owen's war, visiting the sites of his boyhood and his war service. Owen was kind to his biographers, writing in detail about his experiences at the front in letters to his mother and sister, which, unusually for the time, didn't blithely underplay the horror. But even Owen felt remade by his service at the front."I fought like an angel,"he wrote in a letter signed"Wilfred and more than Wilfred."The soldiers he'd jocularly dismissed as"ugly, coarse, unlovely"when he was mobilised became a hallowed company by the end. In other words, behind the old lie there was the awkward truth that all remembrance programmes struggle with, which is that, bloodthirsty or pacifist, a lot of men think war is a transforming test. It's oneof the reasons that the statement"never again"always has such a forlorn note to it.
Learners, Jessica Hynes's one off comedy drama about a woman learning to drive (and discovering herself in the process, naturally), dispensed with the usual rule of signal and manoeuvre, by which most television dramas let you know well in advance where they're headed and what course deviations you can expect. Instead, it swerved all over the place, keying you with one budding romance and then suddenly having another candidate cut in front without warning. Characters that you thought were going to be played as mere light relief were suddenly revealed to have melancholic depth and apparently significant narrative details turned off and disappeared down a slip road. In a way it was quite refreshing to have all the rules of the road ignored so systematically, but it made for an odd and unsettling journey. It would have been nice, too, if Hynes's talent for bathos had had a little more space to breath. The clutch control might be a little smoother next time out.

"In mythology, La Fenice - the Phoenix - is a fabulous bird, which was celebrated for consuming itself in flame then rising from its ashes. La Fenice is used here as a symbol of the influence of Italian music in Baroque Europe. It was also the title of a work by Giovanni Martino Cesare, an Italian composer and cornett player who moved north of the Alps in the early 17th century. Today this name has been adopted by a group of musicians, whose common desire is to share their passion for the sumptuous Venetian music of that time and bring out all its extraordinary vitality.
The ensemble's repertoire nevertheless includes works by composers from all over Europe and covers more than two centuries of music; indeed, the cornett was commonly used in the early 16th century by Josquin Desprez and his contemporaries and it was still in use at J.S. Bach's time and Bach himself included it in several of his cantatas.
The cornett can be found alongside the voice in sacred music throughout the Baroque period; it is mentioned in the registers of the Royal Chapel at Versailles until 1733. As for the sound it produces, Mersenne, tells us in his Harmonie universelle (Paris, 1636) that « it is like a sunbeam shining through the shadows or through the darkness when it is heard among the voices in churches, cathedrals or chapels... "
Anxious to respect the original instrumentation, particularly in vocal music, where the instruments shed light on the text through their symbolical import, the ensemble adapts to fit in with each programmes it performs. Coming from all over Europe, the Ensemble's musicians are all internationally renowned soloists, playing with the best Early music ensembles in the world.

"The Early Music Studio of Saint John is a new venture providing local musicians - both amateur and professional - with educational and performance programs about the music of the 16th to 18th centuries, the period of the first exploration and settlement of our region from the first voyage of Jacques Cartier in 1534 to the arrival of the Loyalists in 1783. The Early Music Studio seeks through its performances to offer the community the opportunity to experience the "soundtrack" of our early history. The adventurous spirit and energy of the early explorers and settlers is reflected in this lively, colourful music, as the composers of the time charted new realms of musical expression to create works which still have the power to entertain and move us today.
In keeping with the historical focus of the music, the Early Music Studio takes the stage in a number of Saint John's landmark heritage buildings. These dramatic performance spaces provide a fitting, historic backdrop for the performances of the Early Music Studio. " ...

The music is a wide variety of medieval tunes, chiefly from the 13th and 14th centuries. Selections can range from bouncy dances and drinking songs to hauntingly beautiful devotional and art melodies. In the style of medieval musicians, large sections of music are improvised, adding an unforgettable excitement to the songs. The Goliards can play, lead and teach dances to allow the audience to completely experience the music as it was originally presented.

Inégal - unequal - means, besides variableness of the cast, versatility in styles, dramaturgical resourcefulness and unconventional approach to searching for interpretation values. Our advantage is a refined selection of members - the best Czech and foreign singers and instrumentalists. Today, Ensemble Inégal belongs among the top musical ensembles and, since its beginning, it has roused interest among music-loving public and received many enthusiastic reviews from expert critics in Europe and the USA. Ensemble Inégal has released a number of very successful CDs. The first CD record Mass in D-major, op. 86 "Lužanská" by Antonín Dvořák was made in 2001 in the Chateau chapel in Lužany, whose consecration Dvořák composed this Mass for. In 2003, Ensemble Inégal had their world recording premiere of sacral compositions by the Czech baroque composer Jan Josef Ignác Brentner (1689-1742), who used to be one of the most successful composers in central Europe during his life, yet he was forgotten almost completely during the following centuries. We managed to bring back to life his musical works, charged with extraordinary resourcefulness, original and unmistakable style and unusual inward emotionality. Several weeks ago, Ensemble Inégal has finished the latest CD record, which is a world premiere again. The star cast recorded the oratorio Il serpente di bronzo (Bronze Snake) by one of the greatest personality of European baroque music, phenomenal composer Jan Dismas Zelenka.

Its conception emerged from Lisette's passion for playing Baroque and contemporary music on the recorder and flute. Its name was inspired by the sculpture "Portique" designed and crafted by her grandmother, internationally renowned artist Madeleine Stanley-Jossem. Two forms of steel interlaced with silver stand boldly apart, creating an opening, a gateway, yet both are connected to the solid base that supports and unites them. "Portique" is the visual representation of L'Ensemble Portique's mission to explore the independence and interdependence of the distinct and separate musical worlds of early and contemporary music. Lisette's vision of integrating the two provides the guiding force behind this unique ensemble. " Visit website for more information. (ed.)

"Ensemble Vermillian was founded to explore the potential for color and texture possible in transcribing the virtuosic repertoire of the seventeenth and eighteenth century for recorder, cello and continuo. Based in Davidson, North Carolina, and Berkeley, California the members of EV, sisters Frances Blaker (recorders) and Barbara Blaker Krumdieck (Baroque cello) joined by Katherine Heater (harpsichordist and organist) have traveled to meet, research, rehearse and perform together since 2000. The ensemble is expanded to include other musicians depending on the project at hand. Viola da gambist Elisabeth Reed joined Ensemble Vermillian for the two-CD Stolen Jewels project.
Having studied at conservatories in Denmark, the Netherlands, Ohio and Indiana, the performers blend their approach to the music to create a sound which inspired one audience member to write, "A beautiful performance. The chemistry between you is special."
EV explores less-familiar repertoire from the 17th and 18th centuries and makes it their own through transcription for their particular instruments. The very special group chemistry that these players create together makes for compelling performances, both for the audience and the performers.

Just realized that "quantum" is an excellent replacement for "value". So e.g. '3' denotes not a number but a quantum that we happen to name '3', or, the value of '3' is that quantum.

In a previous article I argued against the pernicious Container Fiction. Some respondents have quite reasonably responded that this seems a bit pedantic; it may be true that e.g. a list is not really a container, but it's such a useful metaphor that only a pedant would insist on banning it.
Indeed it is a very useful metaphor, but the motivation for exposing it as a "pernicious" myth is not linguistic fascism, but rather pedagogical clarity. The Container Fiction is only pernicious insofar as it interferes with a clear understanding of the underlying abstraction it attempts to capture: the functor as a special kind of relation that enables communication between two different and mutually incomprehensible universes. This is bound to happen, since the container fiction is deeply embedded in the world of set theory, and the key to understanding Haskell is category theory, which is a whole nother thing.
The list is probably not the best example, since it involves a lot of complexity, what with the free monad and so forth. A simpler example would be a pair (a,b). This can obviously considered a kind of container, but as metaphors go a somewhat less pernicious image is the chemical compound. A chemical compound has different properties than its consituents; carbon monoxide (CO) is quite a different thing than carbon and oxygen. It's not a container of its constituents, it's their compound. The relation of (the denoted value) of "(a,b)" to its "components" a and b is similar. It's a mereological relation, not a containership relation.
But even that obscures the true nature of the functor (). The value denoted by "(a,b)" is not a compound, it is a primitive, whole, opaque value. (Disregard for the sake of argument whether it is dependent on the human mind.) The compound is the expression "(a,b)" itself.
My proposition is that a category theoretic explanation can be clearer and simpler than such metaphorical expositions, leading to a solid articulated intuition of the structural nature of functors without resorting to colorful metaphors. Well, maybe one, but it's arguably not a metaphor. A full exposition would take some very careful writing and a bunch of diagrams, but here's a sketch of how it would work.
Start with a, b, and (). Symbols 'a' and 'b' name things in a home universe; '()' is (the name of) an intergalactic "telefunctor" that relates the home universe to an alien universe of pair values. "(a,b)" takes two primitive values from home to a third primitive value in the alien universe. It doesn't convey a and b to the alien universe; rather, it entangles them. IOW, "(a,b)" is a kind of name or definite description of a value that is just as primitive and indivisible as the value denoted by "a" but that lives in an alien universe. We could say that "(a,b)" represents the quantum entanglement of a and b with the value denoted by "(a,b)". Call that value x. It lives in an alien universe; we know nothing about its internal structure, nor what it looks like in its universe, nor how it relates to other elements of its universe. But we do know something about how it relates to values in our home universe. We obviously know it is related - via () - to a and b together. But we also know, because of the way we define () - since this is just a brief sketch I omit this definition - we know that x is related to a and b individually. Our definition of () goes with two other definitions: fst (a,b) = a, and snd (a,b) = b.
Now we have defined the value of () purely in terms of how it relates things across intergalactic (ok, couldn't resist a metaphor) boundaries - morphisms. We could go further and show how a and b can also be defined as morphisms - after all, they're just names denoting values, and those values are just as opaque and unapproachable as the value of "(a,b)". Our knowledge of how all these things behave is expressed in terms not of what they are, but in how they relate. You can judge a man by his friends; you can understand mathematical values by their relations to other values.
A diagram might represent values as blackened circles. I believe this approach leads to a very clear, simple, and reasonably complete exposition. The metaphor of alien universes and intergalactic telefunctors could of course be dispensed with, but it does add color without introducing semantic distortion.
The real virtue of this approach becomes more clear when we complement the above exposition of the object component of a functor with a similar account of the morphism component that takes functions from one realm to functions in the alien realm. The pedagogical payoff is the realization that a functor allows us to use what we know about values in one realm to "manipulate" values in another realm. The best metaphor for the functor is neither containment nor mereology, but quantum entanglement.

This seems like it should be simple but my daughter keeps asking questions that I'm not sure I know the answers to. She leaves London on Monday and has about 1,000 pounds in an HSBC account. She wants to close the account. I suggested she send me the money on Paypal in dollars and I'd send it back to her in a few days. She says that Paypal will delay the transfer. Can she ask the bank to give her a check? If she arrives in the US with a British check denoted in pounds, will they just let her deposit it to her US account? She'd rather not carry the cash back. She also said that when she returned from Rome, US Customs asked her about how much money she was carrying (Euros, I guess.) I was never asked this so I'm not sure why she was. Any suggestions?

Agree it would be easier to ask them to transfer to her account in the US. She will still pay fee for changing currencies, but will have immediate access to the money. -
Report Abuse
If she has an HSBC account in the U.S. she can probably just do an electronic transfer. The next best way is to send a wire transfer to a parent. The third best way is actually Western Union. Both a wire transfer or Western Union are going to cost about $20.
Or she could simply bring cash. I realize it seems antiquated, but she can legally carry up to $10K in cash and not even have to declare it. But she'll avoid the currency-exchange fees much easier with an electronic transfer. -
Report Abuse
Thank you. Really, PayPal is her best answer because they charge no fee for changing currency. I'm sure they make it back on the exchange rate but it's simple to make the exchange. They may limit the amount that can be sent though. She's looking into that now.
Report Abuse
taking the cash will be cheapest, then she only has to pay the exchange rate converting from sterling to dollars, either before she leaves the UK or in the USA.
Transferring electronically, or by cheque, will incur additional charges; either the cost of the electronic transfer or processing a sterling cheque in a US bank, plus an exchange rate conversion -
Report Abuse
Use a bank wire transfer. Takes about 3 days, costs about $30, and is secure. I've done this a number of times from different countries to and from the USA.
Report Abuse
Hoo boy, wouldn't trust Western Union.
Cash would really be king here if she doesn't opt for the wire, and she'd probably get a better rate in the UK because UK banks are far more accustomed to flipping currencies than US banks so the rates tend to suck less (don't equate "no fee" with "no charge").
And $1600 isn't that much. She may be asked about money, but unless she's carrying wads of hundreds and getting off a flight from a drug portal, she should not run into trouble. -
Report Abuse
I should have mentioned that you get the interbank transfer rate with a bank wire transfer. This will save you several percent in exchange *commission* and/or spread if you take the £s in cash and exchange it for $s.
Report Abuse
Could she close the account by using http://www.xe.com/xetrade/ and have the entire account transferred over to a U.S. Bank?
Report Abuse
She ought to be able to do a bank transfer for less than $30 (mine charges £15) from her computer, if she's nervous about carrying cash.
Though Western Union involves taking cash to a convenience store (or the competitor, MoneyGram, requires her to take cash to a post office) they're both completely trustworthy. The (very considerable) security risks with both are to do with sending money to someone you don't know: that doesn't apply in your case. -
Report Abuse
Western Union is trustworthy AND expensive, for pete's sake.
HSBC has American locations. Just found out about that because of the money laundering they did. Do a bank to bank wire transfer. -
Report Abuse
I may be missing the absolute obvious here but could she not just take her ATM card to the US draw the cash out over 4 days and leave a standing instruction with HSbC that once the balance is cleared, they should close the account down,
ATMs are usually the most cost effective method of international transfer. Western Union is silly expensive and usually for desperate or criminal activity. -
Report Abuse
Dickie_Gr, I do think she could use her ATM card in the U.S. and use that method to clear out the account, but I don't know if it can be closed here or if it has to be done in the UK.
But I completely disagree with your opinion about Western Union. The company now offers many more reliable and reasonably cost-effective ways to transfer funds legitimately. And a lot of people use the service for international transfers, not just the desperate and criminals. That's simply not a fair description of the company's customers. The cost is comparable to a wire transfer at a bank and allows someone who can't accept a wire transfer to get funds quickly and efficiently. -
Report Abuse
my experience is that the US end of the deal is often the "hidden cost" and hence Western looks relatively low cost, but it is a couple of years since I had to do it commercially. It may be that the company has turned the corner and become a customer-friendly corporation but its brand image is still one of a dinosaur
Report Abuse
I bank with HSBC and they are one of the few global banks.
They will need a signed letter to enact the closure. Ring them from the US using their international number which I have, this will close the account.
Last time I entertained WU around 3 years ago the total transaction costs amounted to 8%. I was neither desparate or a drug dealer. -
Report Abuse
Don't close the account! Leave a few pounds in it... one never knows when it might come in handy. Setting up a new account in the UK unless you are a resident is impossible as far as I know.
I agree the easiest thing to do is just use an ATM once home. Don't use Western Union... as far as I'm concerned they are reliable but she'll lose money on the exchange rate. -
Report Abuse
"Don't close the account! Leave a few pounds in it... "
As long as there aren't high fees, I agree w/ ParisAmsterdam. I can't count the number of times I've wished I still had an acct in the UK. Could come in handy for future travels or even some on-line purchases. -
Report Abuse
The problem with taking the money out at ATMs in the US is that, unless she decides to keep the account it will be impossible to withdraw the exact balance of the account.
If she decides to keep the account she needs to check on any fees, and how long HSBC will let the account sit dormant before they decide unilaterally to close it. -
Report Abuse
"Don't close the account! Leave a few pounds in it... one never knows when it might come in handy."
That might work if she maintains a UK address and keeps the account active. If she doesn't, where would the bank send the statements? After a period the account would be declared dormant and she would lose the money. I doubt they would be willing to send correspondence to a foreign address unless the account was set up expressly for that purpose. -
Report Abuse
Hetismij2, the period before going dormant for current accounts is usually a year, or 3-5 years for savings accounts. It's up to the individual bank.
Report Abuse
"If she doesn't, where would the bank send the statements?
Many banks will send e-mail statements. One of my banks has discontinued paper statements unless one specifically requests them. -
Report Abuse
>>>if she maintains a UK address and keeps the account active. If she doesn't, where would the bank send the statements? <<<
All my statements with various banks are accessed online. I can see copies of cheques online too. That account can be kept active
by making a small withdrawal from time to time. 2 of my accounts are with banks I never go to in person... I can mail them cheques to deposit.

Early comeback boosts Stoner's confidence |
By Shigemi Sato ,AFP Tuesday, October 16, 2012, 12:39 am TWN |
MOTEGI -- Reigning MotoGP champion Casey Stoner says it was worth the risk to make a comeback at the weekend's Japanese Grand Prix despite not being fully recovered from surgery on his right ankle.
The Australian Honda rider, due to retire from MotoGP racing at the end of the season, finished fifth on Sunday having missed the previous three races because of his injury. "This weekend I slightly got my confidence back up," Stoner said. "During the race I had the pace to run with the front guys, probably not for the whole race. But we definitely had the pace and that's good." The 2007 and 2011 world champion crashed in qualifying for the Indianapolis MotoGP on Aug. 19 but still raced there to finish fourth. He underwent surgery on Aug. 30 on torn ligaments and fractures to his ankle, tibia and fibula. Stoner, who turns 27 on Tuesday, said: "(The accident) made me a lot more cautious, especially to come back here. I didn't really want to crash. Anything I do to my foot can send us back a long way." The Japanese GP was won by his factory Honda teammate Dani Pedrosa as he beat Yamaha ace and championship leader Jorge Lorenzo into second, keeping alive his hopes to lift his first premier-class title. The two Spaniards and Stoner have between them won every race this season with Lorenzo winning six against five for Pedrosa and four for the Australian. Stoner's absence has pushed him out of title contention with just three races remaining. But he has vowed to go full throttle to end his MotoGP career on a high, especially at his home Grand Prix on Phillip Island later this month where has has triumphed for five straight years. Stoner, still limping, admitted his body "started to suffer and ache in ways I didn't expect" during the race at Motegi. He could not put enough weight on the front and his bike suffered a "huge amount of chatter (vibration after braking)" as he protected his right foot, which is still undergoing extensive treatment. "We had the pace to run a lot higher and get on the podium," he said. "Unfortunately, just physically, I couldn't manage this situation. I'm a little bit disappointed." Stoner, who had initially planned to come back at the Australian GP at the end of October, said that his Japan outing might help him for the rest of the championship series which will end in Valencia, Spain, on Nov. 11.

Jesus Christ, bear with me here – I'm just drinking chocolate milk, writing words down - Don't you realize that there's more to life than reading books? - 10'45 - Cup-of-Coffee-#3 – It's going to be an interesting day… (You know you have a problem when your piss smells like espresso.)
Actually, we knew you had a problem when you started chewing at the bandages on your wrists and writing fake Latin on the walls in your own blood. "Why are you laughing? I didn't mean that as a joke."
Jena paragot – Flying steamship. Slavic languages are so cool. (Latin's not Slavic it's Latinate.) "You guys aren't the be-all and end-all of reality and what's right and what's wrong", says this old guy sitting across from me (totally looks like an old sea captain,) "I don't think I've ever used anything I learned in my undergrad." Does that mean that Latin's not cool? He later explained that he just had a lousy love life at MIT.
That's why people take Arabic – After class we have very competitive scrabble games, drink classy wine, and get drunk enough to make some poor decisions. I don't know my suffixes that well. Turnererer is not a word. (Does that upset you? Do the daffodils?)
Drunk and talkative, they drive down the highway in Grospa's electric wheelchair (he was German) while the Japanese family takes a daytrip to the tattoo parlour. These are called talking minutes. (What's the other guy doing?; He curls his hair, she fumbles with her necklace - I'm seriously falling for this girl.)
I was bad at reading the signals for six months. "Great!" she says, "Bring a lighter." I did and we jumped the fence and I read the Divan and started to realize that the world's a beautiful place. Looking around in English: "to be" carries as much weight as "to eat" or "to drink" or "to jump the fence."
(It's starting to freak me out a little.)
It was about this time that the old guy's eyes shot up. (He looked shocked and embarrassed.) What was the businessman writing? "Snoop Dogg is probably the finest musician of our generation" (…That's the point when I realized that I'm too trusting in humanity and I kiss her goodbye and she wanders through those shiny doors.)
I'd better be real charming for the next ten minutes. "Drag-racing's a sport!" "I'd be thinking about JFK the whole time!" We're the kind of drunk that would make you forget about Scrabble altogether. Besides, isn't Parcheesi much classier?
(…But does Parcheesi really have a place in my life? :: Colossal Guardian Lion:: Assyrian, 865-860 b.c. :: (Talk about cultural rape.) (Never mention rape in bed – that's a turnoff.))
But forget all that. We have two weeks left. Stop thinking about the hardest question and multiplying it by a hundred. Drop the physics of the heart. I'll give you a hug, you'll kiss my cheek, and I'll go write about it in my book.

Loading... Medea: Harlan's World (1985)by Harlan Ellison
None. None Loading...
Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. This may be unique. It certainly was when it was done, and I don't think I've seen anything like it since. It all began in 1975, and proceeded on to fruition ten years later. It's a lot more complicated than that, and even Wikipedia just skims over it. "Medea: Harlan's World is a collection of science fiction short stories by different authors, all taking place on the same fictional moon. It was an experiment in collaborative science-fictional world-building, featuring contributions by Hal Clement, Frank Herbert, and others. It was based on a 1975 UCLA seminar called "10 Tuesdays Down a Rabbit Hole", held by Harlan Ellison and other science fiction authors." The stories in this book had already been published in the various science fiction magazines of the day, by the time the collection saw the light of day. Having all the preparatory information, and the conversations transcribed from the original seminars, just binds it all into a complete picture. Amazing book on how to develop an SF planet from the cosmos up. Includes a panel discussion with Frank Herbert and Ray Bradbury and collected stories from among Ellison's writing students at the time. A collaboration of science fiction greats, this book is the result of a university class on creative writing given by everyones favorite a*hole Harlan Ellison. It's great not only for the Sci Fi Enthusiast but also as a look into how the greats do their thing. no reviews | add a review

• His tally of four hundreds in five innings is an outstanding achievement in ODIs.

• Sangakkara has achieved the aforesaid feat four times in a calendar year - 2004, 2006, 2011 & 2012.
• Sangakkara has become the fifth player to make five centuries or more against India in ODIs. Sanath Jayasuriya (7), Ricky Ponting (6), Nathan Astle (5), Salman Butt (5) and Sangakkara (5) are the batsmen to achieve the distinction.
• Sangakkara`s run tally of 10,769 at an average of 38.59 in 331 matches has bettered Mahela Jayawardene`s tally of 10704 (ave. 33.34) in 379 ODIs. Sanath Jayasuriya is the leading Sri Lankan run-getter in ODIs with 13430 at an average of 445 matches for SL/Asia.
• Sangakkara`s fifth hundred against India is his 14th in One-Day Internationals.
• Lasith Malinga for the first time has conceded 80 runs or more without taking a single wicket in an ODI.
