Errol Morris' What's in a Name parts 2 and 3. It's definitely an interesting series of essays, as people in Chinese cultures have a very different way of approaching names. While most of them never change their family name, a lot of them change their English name and Chinese first name, even at a very young age. I've had grade 1 students change their names very suddenly. It's rarer to change your Chinese first name, but it happens often compared to what I'm used to.

This is the first part of a five-part series on the NYT by Errol Morris. I've finished the first and I'm starting the second part today. They make very interesting reads.
The Asthray By Errol Morris Part 3
Published March 9, 2011 blogs , mathematics , politics-social-racism , science Leave a CommentTags: Errol Morris, incommensurability, mathematics, NYT, Philosophy, science, the ashtray, thomas kuhn
The third installment of The Ashtray is online over at the NYT. It's the longest of the series, until now.
Commensurability or incommensurability is a concept in the philosophy of science. Scientific theories are described as commensurable if one can compare them to determine which is more accurate; if theories are incommensurable, there is no way in which one can compare them to each other in order to determine which is more accurate.
Pythagoras and the Pythagoreans were devoted to a higher spookiness. It is their distinction. With his vein-ruined hands describing circles in the smoky air, Pythagoras has come to believe in numbers, their unearthly harmonies and strange symmetries. 'Number is the first principle,' he affirmed, 'a thing which is undefined, incomprehensible, having in itself all numbers…' Half-mad, I suppose, and ecstatic, Pythagorean thought offers us the chance to peer downward into the deep unconscious place where mathematics has its origins, the natural numbers seen as they must have been seen for the very first time, and that is as some powerful erotic aspect of creation itself…
David Berlinski, "Infinite Ascent"There is an anomaly — an inability to find a rational fraction that measures the diagonal of a unit-square. This is followed by a mathematical proof that shows conclusively, irrefutably that there is, that there can be, no such fraction.
It's a very nice essay, presented in an almost academic fashion. A must for any mathematician.
The Ashtray: Paradigm Shifts by Errol Morris
Published March 8, 2011 writing Leave a CommentTags: asides, Errol Morris, essay, the ashtray, thomas kuhn
Errol Morris is at it again with a new essay called The Ashtray. The first part was published yesterday. The second appeared today.
The most important and most controversial aspect of Kuhn's theory involved his use of the terms "paradigm shift" and "incommensurability." That the scientific terms of one paradigm are incommensurable with the scientific terms of the paradigm that replaces it. A revolution occurs. One paradigm is replaced with another. And the new paradigm is incommensurable with the old one. He made various attempts to define it — changing and modifying his definitions along the way. In the 1962 edition of "Structure" incommensurability was likened to a Gestalt-flip. Presumably, it was about how we see the world.

Part 3 of Errol Morris' opus has been online for a few days, but I've been saving them for today. It's one of those things that you need to completely focus on, and read word for word, no skimming allowed. Since I read thousands of articles for work every week, I tend to skim a lot of it.
Anosognosia: Lack of Knowledge of One's Illness

Errol Morris has published his second part of his new five-parter. In this part, he explores anosognosia, the lack of knowledge of one's illness. I really devoured this one. I think I need to read some of his earlier essays again, The Case of the Inappropriate Alarm Clock.

Hi everyone,
I was surfing a site today called "Hacks Cheats & Tricks", which includes hacks, cheats, tricks, mods, and apps for a wide variety of online games and social networks, when I came across an interesting new Facebook private profile hack. This one seems to be working flawlessly, so I'm pretty happy with it. Although the site doesn't provide any specific details as to how it works (probably to keep Facebook guessing), my guess is it takes advantage of loopholes in some of Facebook's latest application changes. Anyway, here's the link: Facebook Private Profile Hack 2011
Hope you like it.

Hercules is a pain in the brain and senses. 3D Greek mythology for action-needy morons: praise pre-civilisation and pelt the punter with effects. Spears, arrows, rocks rain down on us – or out at us – while the story and characterisation stand rigid in their starting blocks.
The title demigod is played by Dwayne "Rock" Johnson with a wig draping wooden features and a voice monotonously booming. The cinematography is muddy, the script moribund. You would never know from a film like this that 300 had been made. You would barely know the wheel had been invented.

Supalife Progressive House Vol 3' is the latest installment of this stunning series, providing you with another five awesome Construction Kits packed full of smooth futuristic House music. Funky basslines, processed vocals and immense builds combine to give this product that distinctive Supalife vibe, once again raising the bar for House production.
Producer Eddy Beneteau is back, turning his phenomenal production talents to Progressive House to bring you a sound well ahead of the curve. Lush pads and buzzing synths mingle with rich spatial FX and pounding bass lines, all underpinned by accessible and memorable progressions, melodies and hooks.
With close to 2 GB of uncompressed content, you're sure to find inspiration for your next House, Dance or Progressive Electronic production.
MIDI Files Included:
Like so many other Producer Loops products, 'Supalife Progressive House Vol 3' includes MIDI files for the majority of musical phrases heard in each Kit, allowing you to seamlessly mix your favourite synths and samplers with the sounds contained in the pack.
Advantages of MIDI:
While the supplied ACID/Apple Loops/REX content is extremely flexible and powerful, MIDI has the added benefit of allowing you to go to extremes of pitch and tempo beyond which the loops were originally recorded, with no time stretching or pitch shifting artefacts. Furthermore, you can make tweaks to the riffs so they fit perfectly into your existing mixes.
One-Shot Samples:
Each Construction Kit features one-shot melodic and drum samples, allowing you to create new beats, fills and loops to compliment the existing material. Simply load them up into your sampler of choice and create an infinite number of new beats and phrases.
Dry/Wet Loops:
For users looking to simply drag and drop, the 'wet' files contain all of the effects processing heard in the audio demos. But for producers looking to create their own effects mix, 'dry' loops are also included. Don't like the wet loops? No problem, add your own effects.
Unlooped Riffs/Tails:
This sample library also comes with unlooped/tail versions allowing you to end a phrase with the decay of the reverb/delay applied to the loop, another "Producer Loops" exclusive product feature.
All of the loops in this product are 100% Royalty-Free (including the vocal loops), so once purchased, you can use these loops in your commercial releases without having to pay any hidden costs.

We should all go down there and start jumping up and down until it sinks into the sea.

SPOTTED CARD CLIMAX - Two cards are freely chosen and vanish. After many unproductive attempts to find the vanished cards, the performer gives up and performs a trick with paddles. Dots appear, multiply and jump from one paddle onto another and finally disappear. The spectator is asked to name his card (which actually returned to the deck.) Amazingly, the dots from the paddles are found attached to the back of this card. As the performer turns around, the second chosen card is seen pinned to his back.IMPOSSIBLE RISING CARD - A spectator picks a card (free choice), signs the face with a marker, returns the card to the deck, shuffles the cards and places the deck into the card case. The performer takes the marker and waves it above the case. As if by magic, the signed card rises out of the case. This is a further development of the Cabaret Rising Card featured on Magnetic Tricks Video Volume 2.SIGHT AT FINGERTIPS - A clear box full of pins with different colored heads is thoroughly shaken. The magician places the box behind his back and as the spectators call out colors, the magician produces the corresponding pins. In a similar way, when the pins are dropped into an opaque tissue bag, the magician infallibly detects the head pins of the named colors. Sight at Fingertips features two different methods - both are unique.THE ULTIMATE LAST CARD - A card is selected and returned to the deck. The cards are dealt face-down into six equal piles in a row. A regular die is cast at random. The pile corresponding to the number thrown on the die is kept; the other five piles are eliminated. The die is thrown once more to determine a card from the remaining six. The last card happens to be the selected card!INSEPARABLE MATCH-HEADS - The theme may look familiar but the props and the routine are different. The effect is that a tiny match head is placed into a closed fist while another match head is pocketed. When the fist is opened, both match heads happen to be together. This is repeated several times. In the end, the match heads unexpectedly vanish from the hand. This little trick using impromptu props can be performed anywhere anytime.CHAMELEON KNOTS IN SHOELACE - A two-tone shoelace, half white and half red, is displayed. A knot is tied in each half. By passing the fingers along the shoelace, the knots change colors. Now, the knot in the white half is red and the knot in the red half is white! Another stroke and the knots turn to their original colors. They are untied and the shoelace is handed out for examination.RING TRANSPOSITIONS - Three red and three blue rings (shown both sides)travel successively from one hand into the other. First, two rings then four rings and finally all six rings change places. The rings are then clipped onto a piece of string in this order: red, red, red, blue, blue, blue. A shake of the string and the rings are now in alternating sequence.(IN)VISIBLE CARD IN CASE - The magician mimes dealing cards from an invisible deck. Each card is called by the name and a spectator is invited to say stop. The indicated card (the Queen of Hearts, say) is placed into an invisible empty card case which is put (still invisible) into the magicians pocket. A second later, the magician removes a materialized (visible) card case from the pocket. The Queen of Hearts is found inside.CARDEATER - The performer introduces Engelbert, a tiny green turtle pictured on a blank-faced card. Actually, Engelbert is a fearsome cardeater. By a simple stroke, he erases a playing card, turning it blank on both sides. After having eaten four cards selected by the spectators, Engelbert is seen to have grown up. The turtle has become big and fat.TRANSPARENCY - A blank card (shown both sides) is sandwiched between two clear plastic plates and secured with rubber bands. Another card, selected from a complete deck (say the Five of Diamonds) is pushed against the plates. When this card is turned over, it is seen to be blank. Simultaneously, the card imprisoned between the plates has changed to the Five of Diamonds. Everything can be examined.

Gordon Brown's plans to pay the vast majority of MPs up to £26,000 a year to "clock in" at the House of Commons face fierce resistance today from opposition leaders.
In a surprise announcement, he set out moves to scrap the controversial second-home allowance from July as part of an attempt to reduce the overall expenses bill for MPs. He also called for politicians with second jobs to disclose full details of outside earnings and for MPs to provide receipts for the smallest office and travel claims.
The housing allowance, currently worth a maximum of £24,006 a year, will be axed following a torrent of disclosures of MPs apparently milking their generous expenses system for their own benefit by claiming for furniture, electrical goods and mortgage interest. For most MPs, it will be replaced by a flat-rate daily payment based on the number of days they attend Westminster. A similar system operates in the European Parliament and the House of Lords.
The exact size of the daily payment will be fixed by the Senior Salaries Review Body (SSRB). If it accepts the rate of £170 previously floated by MPs, then backbenchers could be entitled to a yearly maximum allowance of £26,000 in an average parliamentary year. The Prime Minister will hold talks on the proposals with David Cameron, the Tory leader, and Nick Clegg, the Liberal Democrat leader, this evening.
Downing Street said Mr Brown "expected" the system would cut the bill to the taxpayer, but conceded the SSRB would take an "independent" decision.
Mr Clegg said: "I don't think bringing the Brussels gravy train to Westminster is the way to solve the lamentable system of MPs expenses. The great danger is this – you are giving MPs a cheque simply for turning up for work." A spokeswoman for Mr Cameron said he had "big misgivings" about a daily attendance allowance and feared it could be abused. She added: "We will seek assurances that no MP will be better off as a result."
MPs last night warned that a series of fresh anomalies could be created by the introduction of a flat-rate system. For instance, backbenchers who had paid off the mortgage on their London house – and therefore not entitled to the second home payment – could in future claim a daily allowance.
The biggest losers will be MPs from outer London who had previously been able to claim the second home allowance. Under the proposals they will join colleagues from inner London in only being entitled to the London supplement, worth £7,500 a year.
Ministers who live in "grace and favour" homes, including Mr Brown and Chancellor Alistair Darling, will in future not be entitled to the second-home allowance.
The proposals will be put to a vote in the Commons next week with a view to introducing them on 1 July. One Conservative source said: "This was clearly timed to wrong-foot us."
The speedy timetable was also seen by MPs of all parties as an attempt by the Prime Minister to move on from the twin controversies of lavish expense claims and the "smeargate" revelation of a planned Labour dirty tricks campaign against senior Tories. Ministers will be whipped to support the new expenses proposals, with Labour MPs given a free vote on the plans.
John Mann, the Labour MP who has called for an overhaul of expenses, welcomed the move. He said: "This will sweep away the outdated privileges the have so outraged the British public."
Mr Brown also sought to turn the spotlight on the Conservatives by calling for MPs with second jobs to disclose every payment, who paid them and how many hours they worked.
MPs will also have to provide receipts for every claim for office costs, travel and communications. At present they only have to produce them for items that cost £25 and above.
In a message posted on the YouTube website, Mr Brown said the changes were designed to make the system "simpler and less generous" and that action was essential to demonstrate MPs were there to "serve the public and not there to serve themselves".
The package was agreed at yesterday's Cabinet meeting. The Government faced brief embarrassment when Hazel Blears, the Communities Secretary, was photographed emerging from Downing Street with details of the announcement clearly visible on a piece of paper.
Members' benefits: The changes
Second homes
The second-home allowance will be axed. MPs outside London will be entitled to claim a daily payment for attending Parliament.
Outer London MPs
Those MPs "within reasonable distance" of Parliament will lose the allowance and only be entitled to a much lower London allowance.
Grace and favour homes
Ministers in grace and favour property, such as Gordon Brown, will lose the allowance.
Second jobs
MPs will be have to provide fuller information about second jobs – including exact sums paid and details of how many hours they work outside Westminster.
Receipts for every item claimed – down to a 50p light bulb – will have to be produced.

Replacing outer door frame
Model Number: JVM1840WD001 Brand: GE Age: 5 - 10 years
The outer door frame of my JVM1840WD001 was cracked and eventually broken on the bottom. I ordered the replacement part from appliancepartspros.com for JVM1840BD001 since I don't want to pay $200 for the whole door (GE does not make individual part for JVM1840WD001, so I settle with a different color: bisque instead of white). To replace the outer door frame, you would need to use putty knife (the one you use for dry walling) to remove the inside door frame by prying against the inside metal frame. Once you remove the inside door frame, you will see two screws that secure the door handle. Unscrew them to remove the door handle. Once the handle is out of the way, you will see (from outside) there are 2 more screws that secure the outer door frame to the door assembly. Unscrew them (be careful not to let the outer door frame drop because there is the glass attached to it) and use the putty knife to remove the outer door frame. From this point on, the removal and installation should be straightforward. Related Models |

i have a built-in over-the-range model JVM1340 that a renter cracked the bottom of the handle straight thru and also the plastic frame that it's connected to. I'm wondering if bisque looks like almond, cuz that's the color of the other GE appliances in that kitchen. ALso, since your's is a countertop model, I'm also wondering if the method of repair is the same. I have a Kitchen Aid microwave in my primary home, and it's SO easy to repair the handle when it breaks. It cost $8.50 for the handle and takes 5 mins to repair. Clearly GE is way better at making aircraft engines and bombs (aka microwave ovens, lol). Good post and thanks for the ideas.
You can see how to take the door apart so that you can access the screws and replace the handle in the link below. There is a video that you can watch which shows you how to do this process step by step.

outer door frame
I also had the same problem with my GE spacemake xl1400. the bottom of the outside door frame cracked and i replaced it with a new one from you. when everything was put together, the inside light stayed on and the microwave no longer was working. it did work before the repair. any suggestions, it appears the latch is not catching now but when i try just the latch by itself without the door, then it works.. so confused. please help if you have any ideas, thanks
Unplug the microwave. Open the control panel and adjust the door, so both of the hooks on the door latch will actuate the door switches when the door is closed.

How do I remove the door on a GE JE1590SC01 ? Does the door lift off from the hinges, both located on the left-hand side, by simply pulling straight-up and popping out ? Or, must outer cabinet be removed in order to acres the hinge assembly/mechanism ?
Most likely you have to remove the outer case.

text: I thought that you were implying that a lot of the readers have a small sample size of stores. Sorry if I read that wrong. My point is that while there are craploads of labels, only a small fraction actually get any play. There are some regional differences (for example, the minimalism of Common Projects seems more appealing to North Americans and Northern Europeans than Italians), and Santoni is pretty much in every store in Italy, while their distributon abroad is relatively limited; and Marlboro Classics is popular in Canada and Europe, but I've never seen it in the US. However, any boutique, catering to a specific demographic, carries a lot of the same stuff. I don't know whether or not this is true in Asia. Just don't have a good enough grasp of the Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, market.

if you have a multi meter put it on d/c voltage and check youre battery voltage @ idle and @2000rpm's.it should be 13.5 volts or more (no more than 14.6volts unless there are problems with the system)for corect charging if you think that the regulator the put youre meter on d/c amps and un hook the negative battery hook the hot leg to the negative battery post and negative leg to the negative battery cable and check the amp draw.be aware that a perasidic drain on the system may be caused by other things to try to stay on like air bags-ecm's-pcm's-and bodycontrol modules by this i mean check it quick when you take it off (the negative battery cable),then record youre results,but again be careful not to exceed youre meters amp ramge,most are 10 amps.shut off all unused elec. draws on the system before this test also.after recording youre results then remove the leedss frome the altinator and recheck(caution the leeds to the altinator are hot and sould be taped well with elec. tape).if the ampdraw drops the altinator is probly the cause.if no change then one at a time pull a fuse and recheck the amp draw.when it goes away check those wires/componets and it will probly leed you to youre draw.hope this helpstommy
I checked the draw with my multi meter on the ten amp setting and did not come up with anything. And I left it hooked up and it was still fully charged this morning but on the way to work it was putting out 16 - 18 volts at 2000 rpm and 14 at idle according to my voltmeter in the dash so I am going to replace the Regulator. Hopefully that will take care of it. I don't know why suddenly the draw came and went like that. I will have to start checking all of the connections. Thanks for the help guys
Doc here,
I'm not a Ford guy at all..Is the 83 an external solid state regulator? or is it internally regulated ? If you got NO draw at all, on a modern computerized Vehicle something is a~miss..normal is 0.6 to 0.8..with computer and CD Presets..Maybe recheck your meter? Scale?... Do a Voltage test across the battery on DCV, V X 50 or autorange, with it running, and compare against your dash unit for accuracy..It may be the gauge is out of calibration. Also, when doing an AMP check, In SERIES with the cable, don't forget to reduce the scale until it is at the lowest scale the readout can handle... It could just be possible to that something "stuck" on like a glove or hood lamp on that one occasion , although the high voltage readings make me suspicious. Doc

Has Tim changed its strategy in 2008?
Tim and Oi lead cellular growth in the first 4 months of the year with net adds of 1.8 million cellulars, against 1.4 million of Claro and Vivo (more details).
The net adds of Tim in the 1st quarter of 2008 (1Q08) was 42.7% more than 1Q07.

Tim's cellulars base grew 23.7% (1Q08/1Q07), but its net revenue only grew 5.3% in the same period of time. It's income indicators (EBITDA, EBIT and Profit) also decreased.
What happened with Tim's ARPU in the 1Q08?
Tim had in the 1Q08 improved its operational indicators as MOU, Churn, SAC, but its ARPU decreased 14.2% compared to 1Q07.

* Acquisition cost of clients (SAC)
Despite the acquisition cost of customers (SAC) has fallen from R$ 124 in 1Q07 to R$ 117 in 1Q08, due to economies with costs of advertising and commissions, the SAC/ARPU increased. The average time to recover the investment in the purchase of 1 customer increased from 3.6 to 4 months.
Tim's ARPU, which remained stable in 2007 and closed the year at R$ 34.5 (4Q07), fell to R$ 29.5 in 1Q08.
Tim, in its disclosure of results, presented the following causes for the drop in ARPU in 1Q08:
- Promotions traffic aggressive;
- Reduction of traffic in due to existing offerings in the market for calls in intra-network;
Increased penetration in the low-income population.
The fall of ARPU appears to have been influenced more by the first two items that the increasing penetration in the low-income population. Increased participation of pre-paid cell phones based on Tim is also related to the fact of having submitted post-paid net additions in 1Q08 negative (-12.5 one thousand cell). The percentage of pre-paid cell phones (79.2%) by Tim remains, however, lower than the average Brazil (80.9%).
The following table shows that the low growth in revenue of Tim is related, mainly, to a fall in the revenue of network use (interconnection) and in the revenue with appliances sales. Tim increased the allowance for appliances in the segment of post-paid "premium".

-7.9% |
Despite the aggressive promotion of traffic, the revenue of usage grew 15.2% in the last 12 months. The revenue of interconnection (using the network) had dropped by 1.0%. This is an indicator that there was a reduction in traffic (calls from other operators).
The promotions of cheaper minute for calls between customers of a same operator are affecting the profile of traffic and causing reduction in revenue for the interconnection of operators.
Vivo was the only operator not to submit drop in revenue of usage of the network in 1Q08 comparing to 4Q07. However, its in ARPU fell from R$ 13.7 in 4Q07 to R$ 13.3 in 1Q08.
How to explain the decrease in the profit?
The unpayments was given by Tim as the main cause for the worsening of their indicators of profitability.
Tim's EBITDA margin presented at that time two heavy falls (3Q07 and 1Q08) associated with increases in bad debts, unpayments, (6.2%% and 6.4% respectively).
In the 3Q07 Tim discovered a flaw in the system for collecting sales of appliances, which resulted in a reduction of R$ 275 million in "accounts receivable".
In 1Q08, the provision for bad debts (PDD) was impacted by the failure of teleshopping channel. Without this effect the EBITDA margin would be 21.1%, and not 17.9% as reported, but still below the average of Brazil which was 27.9% in 1Q08.
What will be Tim's performance in the 2Q08?
Tim in 2Q08 is maintaining the same pace of growth shown in 1Q08. In Mar/08 it has launched new offers for pre-paid segment as the "Tim is 10" and "express credit". The end of the period for promotional packages of minutes can help, however, to improve the operator's ARPU this quarter.
Tim may also present an improvement of their indicators of profitability, with the necessary improvement of credit and collection processes.
You could ask:
- Has Tim changed its strategy in 2008?
- Will Tim continue growth in net adds over the years?
- Will the offers continue aggressive? To What customers?
- Will Tim reverse the value of ARPU?
- And the EBITDA margin? How is?
- What is the influence of 1Q08 result in the year 2008?

Which Joe gave his name to 'sloppy joes'? We look at five interesting sandwiches and their lexical origins.
1A hooked staff carried by a bishop as a symbol of pastoral office.
- 'In the Celtic regions, where relics were more usually associative than corporeal, these often took the form of a bell once owned by the saint, a crozier, or a book.'
- 'Although Welsh churches, like English and Irish ones, had gospel books, book and bell shrines, croziers, and reliquaries, church treasuries were much barer there.'
- 'All the dozen scientists crowded to shake hands with the bishop; he put away his crozier and shook them all.'
- 'His crozier and a psalter associated with him were, later, taken into battle.'
- 'I was so delighted with the Pope's visit that I, in a burst of Irish Catholicism, the intensity of which would have melted St. Patrick's crozier sent a postcard off to The Catholic Herald saying how I felt about John Paul's visit here.'
- 'Augustine has placed his bishop's mitre on the altar table and propped his crosier and a censer on either side.'
- 'Abbots, abbesses and bishops were buried with their croziers, the pastoral staffs symbolic of their office.'
- 'A bishop's crozier possibly thought to date from the early 7th century has been found in a peat bog in Co Offaly, 60 miles west of Dublin.'
- 'And we should not forget that the altarpiece's narrative culminated in the sculpted Coronation of Mary, an event also depicted on the top of Abbot du Clercq's crozier in the Visitation.'
- 'In it, a bishop who had committed disgraceful acts was stripped of the symbols of his office - mitre, crosier and ring.'
- 'After the formalities, he laid his crozier, as the seal of office, on the altar.'
- 'He rapped with his crosier upon it, saying: - Lift up your heads, you gates, lift yourselves up, you everlasting doors, that the King of Glory may come in.'
- 'The infant Jesus, with a gracious look, takes St Bernard's crosier whilst St Bernard, in his white gloves, joins his hands in prayer.'
rod, tipstaff, mace, wand, sceptre, vergeView synonyms2The curled top of a young fern.
- 'The nuclei in the penultimate cell undergo a final round of premeiotic replication and then fuse, whereas the basal nuclei enter a new crozier.'
- 'Arrowheads point to the upper cell of two of the croziers; they show and keep the typical round shape of young croziers and contain two nuclei of opposite mating type.'
- 'It is striking that, at the end of their development, these fruiting bodies also exhibit croziers that are uninucleate and sometimes abnormal in their shape and, consequently, in their development toward meiocytes.'
- 'Likely, the presence of mitochondria with functional complex I in the croziers (due to previous expression of wild-type genes in the nuclei from the sterile strain) allows the sexual process to proceed past the initial stages.'
- 'It is a large fern in its native habitat of Mexico and has monster crosiers up to 10 ft long.'
- 'Moreover, in contrast to wild-type croziers, almost all mutant croziers are uninucleate.'
- 'After 10 mitotic divisions, the tip of the hypha bends to form a crozier into which migrates one nucleus of each mating type.'
- 'However, Neolecta lacks paraphyses, and the croziers do not develop until the ascus is formed.'
- 'The unfurling croziers of Dicksonia antarctica, one of the hardiest of ferns, look like a nest of baby orang-utans.'
- 'Typically, the fronds develop from croziers or fiddle heads that develop into a single plane.'
- 'This spring they have come into flower at the same time as a nearby royal fern Osmunda regalis Hillii' has begun to unroll its crosiers.'
Middle English (originally denoting the person who carried a processional cross in front of an archbishop): partly from Old French croisier 'cross-bearer', from crois 'cross', based on Latin crux; reinforced by Old French crocier 'bearer of a bishop's crook', from croce (see crosse).

Karachi Flights Suspended After Second Attack on Airport
Faseeh Mangi and Khurrum AnisPakistan suspended flights from the Karachi airport after a residential colony of its security staff was attacked by militants a day after gunmen stormed the country's biggest facility leaving 36 people dead.
"Security force personnel are fighting attackers in the residential colony," Abbas Memon, spokesman, airport security force, said by phone. The residential colony of the airport staff is close to the terminal that was attacked June 8.
Pakistani security forces yesterday cleared the Karachi airport after killing 10 Taliban fighters who carried out a late-night attack on an aircraft maintenance facility. The attack killed 26 others.
The second attack in two days deals a blow to Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif's efforts to end an insurgency that has killed 50,000 people since 2001 and stifled economic growth. The attacks raise questions about Sharif's strategy and threaten to disrupt his plans to attract investors as part of an International Monetary Fund road map to revive the economy.

The Rolling Stones - "It's Only Rock 'n Roll" (but I like it)
Oh well... I guess he didn't have a good memory for a childhood. This could be the price he paid for the path to fame? I think he looked so much better before those plastic surgeries. I'm quite sure that no stars, in this current generation, is able to come close to Michael Jackson. He is still the best.
Goodbye - Air Supply
What can I say? I'm still standing! No weapon against me shall prosper! I am more than a conqueror!!!
I don't care to sit by the window on an airplane. If I can't control it, why look?
Ironically, Jackson really was not bad looking at all as a young man before all the plastic surgery nonsense. At the beginning of the 1980s, as he was just beginning to become a superstar independent of his brothers in the Jackson Five, he was quite a handsome young African-American man with plenty of talent and charisma. In 1983, his overall popularity matched that enjoyed by the Beatles in the 1960s and Elvis Presley in the 1950s.
Since Michael Jackson, I don't think there has been a pop star that has enjoyed that kind of culture-blanketing popularity. Nirvana was probably closest to that in the 1990s, and *maybe* Britney Spears earlier this decade, but I don't think either dominated pop culture the way Jackomania did in the 1980s.

Jackomania? Haha, that's one funny nick for him. I know this name Nirvana but honestly, I know nothing about him. I'll do google up on that. Britney.... I feel that the problem with her is, she loves to wash her dirty linens in the public. And, what about Madonna? She belongs to the 70s? I think she still looks fit for her age.

Nirvana was a *band*, considered the most popular and influential rock band of the 1990s. During the early 1990s, Nirvana popularized a style of rock music that became known as "grunge" rock (other bands that play this style of rock include Pearl Jam and Sonic Youth). The group disbanded at the height of its career in 1994 after lead singer, guitarist, and songwriter Kurt Cobain committed suicide that year, although former Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl continues to be successful with his new band, the Foo Fighters.
And, what about Madonna? She belongs to the 70s?

I read you. The name Kurt Cobain sure rings a bell. Ken, you're almost an encylopedia of entertainment and academic. You know all the details . Thank you for sharing. I usually don't pay attention to so much of details. Yeah, plain laziness actually. I have seen the band name Foo Fighters but I don't listen to their music pieces. The only song, which is also my favourite, that I known of from Pearl Jam is Last Kiss. I like the story in that song.
Currently listening to the pitch perfect 6 year old who sings and touches the heart of almost everyone, especially Simon Cowell. You could make you tear like she did to Amanda. I actually bought her debut album, Over the Rainbow. She's so cute.

"End of the Road" Boyz II Men
"You can't make the world come out right just because you want it that way."
Rihanna - Don't Stop the Music
"Last Kiss" was a 1998 cover by Pearl Jam of an oldie that was first popularized by J. Frank Wilson and the Cavaliers in 1964. During the early 1960s, there was a vogue in pop music for "teen tragedy" songs involving the death of teen lovers. Other songs in this genre include "Leader of the Pack" by the Shangri-Las (1964), "Teen Angel" (1959) by Mark Dinning, and "Tell Laura I l Love Her" by Ray Peterson (1960). The theme of these songs was usually the death of a teenager in an automobile accident (the leading cause of death among teenagers since the mid-20th Century).
The song was atypical of Pearl Jam. I had never heard the band record or perform a rock 'n roll oldie like that before.
The Shirelles - "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow"
i admit...i hate fergie, but i really enjoy "clumsy," which is what i'll be listening to now. however, all day, i was listening to the 80's ATV themesong to chronicles of the shadow swordsman, a duet with gallen lo and i don't know who.

"Listen to Your Heart" (Behind Hurricane Katrina) - D.H.T
"Viewer Discretion Advised. The video may contain material that is not suitable for all audience."
I'd a conversation with someone today about Hurricane Katrina and it reminded me of this song. I have heard of this version on the radio, but this is my first time actually seeing the video; although, the content maybe visually difficult to view, I think both the MV and the song are respectful in highlighting this tragic event and a beautiful dedication to the victims of Katrina.
"Love In This Club" - Usher & Young Jeezy
This song is definitely not the best of Usher. The lyrics sound pretty damn corny, actually. But I have got to give PROP to that delicious, too-good-to-lick chocolate-looking Ab of Usher.

Criminal citations issued this week against six players and a volunteer coach at Philomath High School highlight how allegations of hazing and bullying continue to arise in Oregon and across the country. The criminal investigation stemmed from incidents reported at a July football camp at Camp Rilea in Warrenton.
Research shows that hazing occurs in all types of school districts and cuts across all social and economic groups. Consider this:
Sports teams and other organizations need to find a better way to welcome members, said Elliot Hopkins, director of sports sanctioning and student services for the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS). "Kids feel like they're paying their dues," said Hopkins. But, he said, no one should have to earn his or her place by being sexually assaulted.
At the college level, increased awareness and decreasing tolerance is helping to reduce the number of hazing incidents, says Emily Pualwan, executive director of HazingPrevention.Org. But she said high schools are just starting to deal with the problem. "More and more coaches and high school athletic directors are contacting us and saying, 'We need help in tackling this issue,'" she said.
Peter Weber, executive director of the Oregon School Activities Association, said OSAA isn't seeing a lot of hazing incidents. "I don't know if it's not happening or we're just not privy to it," he said. "Obviously any of it is more than needs to happen."
Forty-four states have laws against hazing, and many have laws reaching down to the middle school level. Penalties can range from misdemeanor to felony, depending on the state and the age of those involved. "We tell schools and parents and students 'You can't ignore this,'" Pualwan said. Her organization tells students that criminal charges can result that "could affect your career, your future, your ability to go to college."
Hazing comes in many forms, Pualwan said, but is generally defined as any humiliating or dangerous activity expected of a student to belong to a group, regardless of his or her willingness to participate. Some examples:
Some students and parents view it as a rite of passage, which is part of the problem, said Pualwan. She said nine out of 10 students who have experienced hazing do not consider themselves to have been hazed. "That is one of the things that makes prevention difficult," she said. "As long as the practice is considered normal or 'boys will be boys,' it's a lot harder to institute change," she said.
Most districts, including Philomath, have policies prohibiting hazing, and are required to have policy on bullying and harassment. Philomath Superintendent Melissa Goff said this week that the district "will take appropriate actions toward coaching staff and students where justified and continue the healing process for affected students and their families."
Mandatory trainings will be conducted with every high school and middle school coach and advisor on district policies and expectations regarding the signs of abuse and prevention of bullying, harassment and hazing. In addition, the ABC House (an Albany child prevention center) will conduct child sexual abuse prevention training for all staff members on September 16.
The Philomath football team's first three games were canceled, which will definitely help bring about awareness of the problem of hazing, said Pualwan. "When you cancel Friday night lights, the community takes notice," she said.
Benton County District Attorney John Haroldson said hazing behavior merits serious legal consequences. "It ends now," he said.
In Florida, after a high-profile hazing incident, the state Legislature mandated that every incoming college freshman must have access to an online hazing prevention course. All 13 public universities in Florida adopted the online course that Pualwan's organization developed, and 35,000 students have taken it so far. A high school edition of the course is slated to come out later this fall. Information about the course is listed on the HazingPrevention.Org website.
Other activities, such as National Hazing Awareness Week, also help elevate understanding of the issue, said Pualwan. This year's event is September 19-23. Prevention of hazing is difficult, said Pualwan, because it takes systemic change to be effective. It starts with the family, but everyone from coaches to alumni and boosters to the students themselves must get on board.
OSAA's Weber said his organization reviews hazing prevention with coaches and administrators every year during their August workshops. OSAA also refers coaches to useful resources, such as the free online courses on hazing and other topics offered by Hopkins' organization (NFHS). "We just continue to try to educate our administrators and coaches around what is hazing," he said, "and alert them to the resources that are available." The most important thing schools can do to prevent hazing, said Hopkins, is to be intentional in prohibiting it and instilling consequences for offenders.
"You can't let it go unnoticed without someone saying the words: 'We don't support hazing,'" he said. "You have to say the words."

Fast, somewhat quiet Do not think about using in a RAID system, and due to the general failure price, possibly look at another drive - perhaps an additional manufacturer. I'm up to 4 for 5 failed. two - initial failures (failed within a month) 1 Warranty (about 9 moths) Now the warranty replacement has now just failed. Now, the most significant concern; I just notice the warranty replacement was a recertified drive…..so, each and every drive I sent back nonetheless containing data that I could not erase, most likely has been reconditioned and reissued….how clean did they wipe the drive….or did they. My data could be out there for an individual to read – wow! This current failure will get a hammer and I'll not send in for warranty, just eat the expense of a replacement. |

Decent cache size, WD excellent, quiet. Price tag for the size. Not all scenarios need substantial drives and the price of smaller sized drives seems ridiculous compared to the larger drives. I don't want/need 500Gb or a lot more in my Computer's, that's what my file server is for. I've in no way had an situation with WD drives, not after. Bought two of these to ultimately run a striped array on my wifes Pc. The conversion from an old (loud) 74Gb Raptor was a breeze and these items are near silent. Making use of the two of them in the striped array has reduce the boot times at least in half.The drives have been bubble wrapped and boxed in an acceptable size container. They were then place in a larger box with other components and a much less thorough packing job. Newegg has quite much stolen all my electronics small business from other e-tailers simply because they are just too easy to deal with but they seriously really should pack their HDD's superior. |

WD has exceptional consumer service. I installed the drive and was installing Windows when the power went out for a couple of seconds. The drive would not function after that and my computer would not even recognize it. I known as WD's 800 number for customer service. Within a minute I was talking to a tech who directed me how to download and use their drive utilities. The utility completely fixed the challenge and the drive is now up and operating. Kudos to WD and their outstanding customer service. Totally none! |

I hear that WD is a excellent solution, but I have had bad experiences. Great bang for the buck and as constantly, Newegg rocks with excellent solutions and client assistance.

But, how long will an out of balance tough drive last? Appear at the other evaluations and order another brand.I RMA'd all of them back and am very please with Newegg's course of action. I exchanged for Seagate's and I am extreamly pleased.

Second drive I ordered is working fine with no troubles. Great drive for the price tag. Initially drive I purchased was DOA, attempted to return to newegg for replacement but they claim the drive I sent back had external harm and that it voided the warranty. Drive had no damage when I sent it back and drive they returned to me was not the exact same 1 I sent in with the RMA request. Hope you get a excellent 1 on the first attempt, doubt you'll get a replacement from newegg if it doesn't perform. |

Dynaste, the long-standing favourite for the RSA Chase, was switched to the Jewson Novices' Chase as connections reconciled themselves to unusually demanding conditions at Cheltenham this week.
They had hoped a wet winter might relent in time to produce the sort of spring ground that has reliably transformed the agenda at so many Festivals. But the entire track has been covered in frost blankets, which are likely to introduce a dead, tacky quality to conditions beneath. David Pipe has duly resolved to run Dynaste over two and a half miles on Thursday, rather than three the previous day. "Touch wood, he's the best in either race," the trainer said. "We thought that on the ground the RSA could be a real slog, so we've leant towards the Jewson."
Coral make the grey 7-4 favourite to vindicate that decision, and trimmed Boston Bob to 11-4 from 3-1 for the RSA. Runner-up over hurdles at last year's Festival, Boston Bob certainly looks tailor-made for the demands of the race. He has made fairly heavy weather of winning both starts over fences in Ireland, but the extra distance will suit and his trainer, Willie Mullins, considers his jumping a major asset.
The official going is soft on both the Old Course, used tomorrow and the next day, and the New Course, reserved for Thursday and Friday. Each was covered in turn over the weekend, a total of 630 sheets being deployed over 65 acres – the equivalent of 45 football pitches. Around 60 groundstaff will need two and a half hours to uncover the Old Course before racing starts tomorrow.
Three previous winners – Binocular, Hurricane Fly and Rock On Ruby – were among just nine declarations for the first big race of the meeting, the Stan James Champion Hurdle. Rock On Ruby will wear blinkers, a conspicuous punt on the part of his rookie trainer, Harry Fry.
Meanwhile, even regaining the Betfred Cheltenham Gold Cup on Friday with Long Run would seem unlikely to qualify as the highlight of the week for his amateur rider, Sam Waley-Cohen, who yesterday celebrated the birth of his first child, Max.
Turf Account
Chris McGrath's Nap: Pindar (5.10 Plumpton)
In good heart for his new stable, despite mistakes over fences, and rider's claim makes him look dangerously weighted back over timber.
Next best: Minella For Party (3.20 Taunton)
Looks on a fair mark for his handicap debut.
One to watch: Kazlian (David Pipe) looked ahead of his rating at Sandown on Saturday, committed a long way out and run down only by a couple of closers.
Where the money's going: Sizing Europe is 5-1 from 6-1 with William Hill to turn over Sprinter Sacre in the Queen Mother Champion Chase on Wednesday.

Convergence For Intelligent Building Systems
By Paul Oswald | Posted 2010-06-28 Email PrintFor a long time, IT and BAS were developed separately, but the convergence of the two is inevitable as buildings become "smarter."
The rapid evolution of building automation systems is having a huge impact on facilities and those responsible for IT. For a long time, IT and BAS were developed separately, each focusing on individual technology developments and moving down the path of least resistance to market. But the convergence of the two is inevitable as buildings become "smarter," and we need to interconnect building facilities spread over different geographical locations for remote monitoring, analysis and control.
Recently, Environmental Systems, Inc. (ESI) released the study "Bottom-Line Sustainability for Business: What's Possible—and Profitable—About Intelli-gent Building Systems." More than a dozen experts cited in the report were unanimous in their conclusion that the convergence of IT and BAS is one of the most important trends in the industry. For some, it may be a daunting prospect, but others see this convergence as a natural progression.
Schneider Electric's Chris Curtis, executive vice president, North America Operating Division, says, "There is a belief by some that the IT industry is going to take over BAS. Our view is that IT is the basic infrastructure—cabling, networks, data gathering, database management and display—of all the systems we use. We certainly see BAS, and for that matter any building system, fully capitalizing on IT technology and trends."
The convergence of IT and BAS is producing measurable benefits by merging business and building systems data across an enterprise. One key to success has been the adoption of open systems platforms by some BAS integrators when developing solutions for customers.
True open systems integration with a life cycle approach avoids first-cost traps that result in significantly higher costs over the life of a particular solution. It helps identify opportunities to reduce costs, improve operating efficiencies and productivity, assist with strategic decision making and manage risk.
The annual savings range from 10 percent to 30 percent on facility operating costs. Year over year, companies are seeing benefits, such as improved energy efficiency of equipment and buildings; more targeted capital spending; better utilization of resources, including money, labor and equipment; and a safer, higher-quality environment that improves productivity and lowers insurance premiums.
Safety First
Many of the industry leaders who responded to interviews say the greatest impact associated with the convergence of IT and BAS has been enabling organizations to enhance safety and security by better controlling who has access to critical data and facilities. With the convergence of BAS and IT, building operators can monitor their buildings 24 hours a day, seven days a week, control access and realize cost savings with the shutdown of unnecessary systems.
Command and Control
"I think the biggest advantage of the integration of IT and BAS is the overall control of user authentication," says Daniel Harris, founder and principal of en-terpret.co and an authority on IT systems and management. In these days when security is a major concern, authenticating users is a high priority.
According to Ken Sinclair, editor and owner of AutomatedBuildings.com, "We are seeing a smoother approach [to user authentication] develop: face recognition, biometrics. We can buy cameras for everything, from front-desk monitoring to checking the belt on a fan. "
Real Concerns
Despite the positive trends, there are legitimate concerns about the convergence of IT and BAS.
Though BAS experts acknowledge that the industry has implemented open standards and protocols for integration with IT, a number of manufacturers of individual building components are incorporating communications options that supposedly do not fit the needs of intelligent buildings.
In addition, while it is one thing to have ongoing data collection in the most simple read/write capacity, it is far more challenging to be able to track trends, adjust schedules and incorporate change-of-value reporting.
Though it's clear that integration of physical and digital security can deliver substantial efficiencies, many businesses have not yet realized the importance of this convergence in the workplace.

Eh, maybe I am weird but I LOVE SILENT HILL!!! aside from that I think you know enough to work @ E3 as a Booth Babe, if you were a PS3 head or if you would have named off a few more unique titles I would have gave you a 5/5, so it's gonna be a 4/5 keep hustling and good luck on the road to E3!
