text: Home > Nation Palace to critics: Just wait for SC decision on DAP by RG Cruz, ABS-CBN News Posted at Jun 16 2014 03:59 PM | Updated as of Jun 16 2014 11:59 PM Share Save Facebook Twitter GPlus LinkedIn MANILA - Malacanang is urging critics of the government's Disbursement Acceleration Program (DAP) to just wait for the ruling of the Supreme Court (SC). Communications Secretary Herminio Coloma Jr. said, "Maghintay na lamang sa ipagpapasya ng ating Korte Suprema, dahil sa sistema ng ating batas, 'yung Korte Suprema naman ang mayroong kapangyarihan na magpasya sa mga usaping tinutukoy natin. Coloma sidestepped a question on whether an adversarial ruling will open President Aquino to impeachment. "Mas mainam siguro na huwag na muna tayong mag-engage sa ispekulasyon. Hindi naman ito magiging kapaki-pakinabang sa kasalukuyan. Lahat ng maaari nating sabihin ngayon ay purong ispekulasyon lamang at mas mainam na hintayin na lang natin ang pagpapasya ng Korte Suprema." Gabriela Party-list Rep. Luz Ilagan said in a statement, "The continuing corruption, the already delayed and selective prosecution of all those involved in the pork barrel scam as well as the delay in the Supreme Court's ruling on the DAP is causing much frustration and outrage among Filipinos especially the youth....there will be more protests unless all those involved, including the President himself are made accountable for the corruption. " The high court is set to rule on the DAP petitions. The DAP has become controversial after it was revealed that lawmakers were given the funds during the impeachment process against former Chief Justice Renato Corona.

Summer is ending,
It won't ever last;
All that you've been wanting,
Will stay in the past.
In the summer I met you,
In the heat we were one;
In the summer I loved you,
In the rain we were undone.
This last summer taught me to trust,
This hot and cool summer was a part of me,
This last summer brought me lust,
But I learned how reality can be;
This summer was the end of you and me.

Look Ma, No Kit!: A DIY Method for Isolating Yeast Genomic DNA
I recently moved to a different research institute and was happy to discover that my new lab had not one but several different kits for yeast genomic DNA isolation. I like trying new kits and protocols. I especially like trying new kits when they promise, like the Olympics, to yield results that are "Swifter, Higher, Stronger". However, in this case I should have been alarmed by the variety of kits, rather than encouraged by it. An array of kits means that the people in the lab are still looking.
A secondary warning sign should have been the phrase "take your bacterial cells…" in one of the kit protocols. The phrase clearly had been copied from a bacterial manual. While both bacteria and yeast are single cell organisms, they are not interchangeable. For example, yeast have nucleus and cytoskeleton—unlike bacterial cells.
In the end, one of the kits failed to produce DNA of reasonable quality. The other kit resulted in usable DNA but with a low concentration. My labmates obtained similar results. I think I'll stick to the tried and true DIY prep for a while.
Why Use a DIY Method for DNA Isolation?
Unlike with kits, there are no propriety reagents in a DIY protocol. You know what exactly is in each reagent. Knowing the composition of your reagents makes troubleshooting that much easier. You can test or buy new components of a solution. Also, you can use only the amount of RNase you need in each reaction, which is more laboratory budget friendly. You could also customize the method. If you aren't getting an appropriate yield, you can increase the number of cells you start with or increase the ethanol precipitation time at step nine.
This protocol was initially proposed as a method for recovering plasmids from yeast—you simply transform a couple of microliters of the resulting prep into E. coli—but it is now routinely used for whole genomic DNA extraction.
Do-It-Yourself Protocol for Yeast Genomic DNA Isolation
- Grow 10 ml yeast culture in YPD at 30°C to saturation, preferably overnight.
- Collect cells by centrifugation and place the tubes on ice.
- Decant the supernatant and suspend pellet in 0.5 mL of water. Transfer the cells to a 1.5 mL screw-top tube.
- Collectcells by centrifugation.Decant the supernatant and suspend the cell pellet in the residual liquid by vortexing.
- Add 0.3 mL of Solution C: 2% Triton X-100, 1% SDS, 100 mM NaCl, 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8), 1 mM EDTA.
- Add 0.3 mL of phenol:chloroform:isoamylalcohol.
- Add enough acid-washed or zirconium beads to the tube so that the liquid is 2-3 mm above the beads. Break the cells open by vortexing.
- Add 0.2 mL of TE (pH 8.0). Vortex 15 seconds. Be sure that everything is mixed.
- Centrifuge the cells at 13,000 rpm for 5 min. Transfer the top aqueous layer to new tube. (The previous tube should be disposed of in a phenol bin.)
- To the aqueous fraction in the new tube, add 1 mL 100% ethanol and mix by inversion. Leave at -20°C for 30 minutes.
- Centrifuge the tube at 13,000 rpm for 10 min and discard supernatant.
- Suspend the pellet, which is mostly RNA at this point, in 0.4 mL of TE. Then, add 3 µL of a 10mg/ml solution of RNAse A.
- Incubate the tube for 15 minutes at 37°C. Add 10 µL of 3 M sodium acetate pH 5.2 and mix.
- Add 1 mL of 100% ethanol and mix again by inversion.
- Centrifuge the tube at 13,000 rpm for 10 min and discard supernatant.
- Air dry the pellet for about 10 minutes. Then, wash the pellet with 70% ethanol, centrifuge it briefly, and remove the ethanol by either decanting or aspirating it with a pipette.
- Air dry again for about 10 minutes. This time suspend pellet in 50 µL of water.
The final DNA concentration should be around 0.5 µg/µl.
News alert: This protocol is spreading in other yeast groups that also work in our lab…the DIY approach is catching on: Swifter, Higher, Stronger!
1 Comment
we routinely use this protocol for DNA preps for PCR and southern blots. For PCR, you can use a single colony (or 1/2 a colony), there is no need to grow overnight cultures. You may even skip the RNAse treatment and assume about 80% of the measured nucleic acid concentration in RNA (if you are doing PCR).

Chapter 5
Today, I decided that I am not talking to Hannah ever again because now she says that likes Austin! She says that because she thinks that he likes her because she says that they are both on the same swim team. He keeps trying to hold her hand and that he wants to put his arms around her. She also said that they shared a Slurpee! I think she found out somehow that I like Austin and that she made that story to annoy me.
Well,on the bright side,I will always have good friends who wouldn't do anything like that to me. Like my friend,Nicole. She knows that I like Austin and when Hannah told me that she likes him, I was upset and she whispered to me,
"She doesn't know that you like Austin."
I really didn't care whether she knew or not. I am going to make sure that he does not like her back. I will go to any extremes to make sure he doesn't like her back. She will soon know not to mess with Summer Williams. And if you do,well, then you must die.
My cousin gave me this diamond ring and I sometimes wish that Austin gave it to me. I think that if he gave this ring to me,I would have been soo happy that I would probably faint. If he did,and when he gave it to me he proposed (when we are older) then I would automatically say yes. Then if he wanted to have kids, I would want one blue eyed chocolate brown hair little girl, but I know genetics don't work like that. She would not have blue eyes because he has brown and I have blue, but you have to have two blues to have a blue eyed baby. But she could have brown hair because we both have brown hair.
I will someday be victorious with Austin and when that day comes, you will all know......

I'll bet if the firearm in question was sold at a gun show, the buyer didn't then jump in his car and drive to Mexico and try to sell it.
Was the gun show buyer an illegal? or working with illegals?
If they weren't here, this might not be happening.
Thank you Janet Napolitano.

Louis van Gaal is sure he will hang onto his job — if Manchester United finish in the top four.
United have held discussions with Jose Mourinho, and the Special One believes his taking charge at Old Trafford is a done deal.
But Van Gaal still thinks that if he can guide his Reds to a Champions League place, the club's top brass will keep him for the third and final year of his contract.
The omens do not look good for the Dutchman though, as United have pointedly not denied negotiating with former Chelsea boss Mourinho.
United are also six points behind Manchester City, who are currently in the fourth and final Champions League place, so it would still need a big turnaround in domestic results - or winning the Europe League, which also secures a spot in UEFA's No 1 club competition.
But Mirror Sport can reveal some agents enquiring about future moves for next season are still being told that United remain committed to Van Gaal - as long as he delivers a top four finish.
The 64-year-old has become increasingly frustrated at the doubts over his future and is likely to be incensed by the growing belief that Mourinho will take charge.
Read more: Jose Mourinho would 'thrive on Manchester United pressure'
But Van Gaal, who retains a strong relationship with executive vice chairman Ed Woodward, is fully aware of the ground rules and expectations.
Mirror Sport also revealed last month that he will consider his future and could walk away this summer before the final year of his contract.
Read more: Van Gaal WILL quit if United miss top 4 claims pal Ronald de Boer
But there is also an increasing sense that Van Gaal is determined to prove his point and has not given up on finishing in the top four.
He guided the club into the Champions League in his debut campaign last season, but they went out at the group stage and were relegated into the lesser-regarded Europa League.
Flashback — Wolfsburg knock Man United out of the Champions League:
But despite their European disappointment, Van Gaal has not given up on the top four - and is not resigned to losing his job to Mourinho.
Ex-Real Madrid boss Mourinho is the overwhelming favourite to succeed Van Gaal if he does go, and we revealed yesterday that the Portuguese has even discussed the finer details of a three-year contract and his transfer strategy.
Mourinho believes it his destiny to take over at Old Trafford.
He desperately wants the job and is determined to hold out for the opportunity.
Read more: Five key questions for Mourinho if he does join Man United
But doubts remain in some quarters at Old Trafford about his suitability and also the knock-on effect it would have on Van Gaal No 2 Ryan Giggs, as Mourinho's arrival could signal the end for the United legend.

We will eventually make it back into Melbourne by around 6:30am Monday. So all going to plan our next and final Travelpod diary update will be posted sometime between tomorrow and our arrival home on ...
A walk in the Marais
... but need to use Visa. This is rather annoying when you consider the various fees that are incurred for a relatively small sum of 14.10 Euro. End of grump. The highlight of the day was a 2.5 hour Paris Walk on route one of two routes through the Marais district. The guide was a youngish Englishman with a good sense of humour.

Paris Segway and Eiffel Dinner
Getting Konner up at 7:30 wasn't easy, but we were successful. We took the Metro to our Segway Tour and had a blast.

They are pretty intuitive and much easier than walking 12 miles; plus they can go 10 miles per hour. So we saw quite a bit of Paris: King Louis XIV's Military Academy (designed by ...

How Did You Get Started?
When I was a teenager I broke my back in a bad car accident. I put on almost 25lbs and spent 3 months in a body cast. When I got out of it my muscles were atrophied and I felt horrible. I still couldn't do most daily tasks for myself without relying on my mother. To boost my morale and make me feel better she bought me a gym membership.
I started working out, albeit the wrong way, and never looked back. 8 yrs later I was about 165lbs and working out most days in the gym below my building just outside Manhattan, NY. I had a trainer approach me week after week to tell me that, "I had the right frame to compete" and say, "let me train you!" I thought he was crazy and just hitting on me so I declined over and over.
Finally, after months I let him train me. I thought at the very least I would lose a few lbs. Well, after 9 weeks I had lost 30lbs and was on the eve of my first competition. It was the Platinum classic 2003 in New Jersey, I took 4th place and Alicia Marie actually won the overall title. After that I was hooked, It was only about 6 months until I decided to become a personal trainer and continue my career in fitness. Since then I have competed in almost 20 competitions and even won a few!

What Workout Plan Worked Best For You?
I am a certified personal trainer NASM, AFAA at Gold's Gym in Methuen Massachusetts. However, we all need a little push to make it through the rigors of training for National Level Competitions. I owe a large part of my success in training to Kim Oddo, who continues to keep my head straight when depleted and tired month after month. He gives me a guideline to follow and it's up to me to develop a well rounded Workout plan.
I use a 4 day split with 3 days rest from weight training. However, it's not unlikely to find me doing some abdominals, cardio or a gentle strength training class at GOLD'S GYM. I train my Shoulders, Back, Legs and Chest on different days alternating where I place my arms in my routine. My shoulders are my nemesis and I try to hit those lightly a second day of the week. Adding them in at the end of another workout.
My back is genetically very developed and quite large in comparison to my arms, shoulders & abs and my quads definitely have a larger sweep than most women in my class. Therefore, building my upper body will be a key mission for attacking that stage in 2007. Cardio varies depending on how conditioned I am for an upcoming competition. You may find me doing anywhere from 55min up to 2-3 hrs per day. I never know until I'm there.
What Nutrition Plan Has Worked Best For You?
I use a nutrition plan specially developed for my physique by Kim Oddo of www.bodybyo.com I follow a mostly whole fresh food nutrition plan with a balance of vitamins, nutrients and minerals. I eat an average of 5-6 times per day. I include simple and complex carbs with whole food proteins ( replacing 1-2 meals with OPTIMUM WHEY protein powder shakes) There is very little fruit in my diet, however, its chock full of fresh vegetables.
I consume about 1-1.5 gallons of water per day and make sure to take all my supplements when they are supposed to be taken to allow for optimum results. When you follow a routine you can easily manipulate your results, therefore, your physique. IF you have no idea what you are putting in on a daily basis its hard to change what you are doing to achieve a desired look.
What Supplements Have Given You The Greatest Gains?
I find that 100% Optimum Whey, BCAA's on lift days and glutamine for muscle reparation are KEY to muscle building. Digestive enzymes, EFA's and Antioxidants are also key in a nutrition plan.
Why do you love Bodybuilding?
I couldn't live a content life without some sort of fitness. Whether its lifting or going for a run. Or its gardening in my backyard. Moving is living! Fitness Is life. I used to be stagnant, overweight and tired ALL the time. It was no way to live and I NEVER want to go back. Fitness is such a great thing; everyone should participate on some level.
As a Fitness Professional & Natural skin and beauty care consultant I have been able to help people achieve their fitness and health goals. There is NOTHING better!
What Are Your Future Bodybuilding Plans?
I plan to continue competing in NPC Figure, looking forward to the day I DO obtain my Professional status. Also, to continue to grow my business as a Fitness Professional and Independent consultant for a Natural Skin and Beauty Care company ARBONNE INTERNATIONAL. I truly enjoy promoting health, wellness and beauty! Let me know how I can help you.
What One Tip Would You Give Other Bodybuilders?
Don't let anyone else determine your future! LIVE YOUR DREAM! Others will question you and put you down, call you crazy for doing this. Keep on pushing because the reward is as big as the challenge to get there!
Who Are Your Favorite Bodybuilders?
I absolutely love Jenny Lynn and Monica Brandt-Peckham Physiques. Both very different but so amazing! New IFBB pro Sonia Adcock, fellow teammate of mine, has the most beautifully feminine physique with a personality to match. For men I truly admire Dex Jackson and Chris Cormier. They are tight, compact and symmetrical, Nice guys to boot! The list could go on.

OK, so I have a smart play list that I call "Random LRP". Basically, it's like the party shuffle, except that it limits itself to songs that I haven't heard in the past two weeks. My library is large enough, that the list is always full at 100 songs.
So, just now, it cued up Stevie Ray Vaughn's Little Wing immediately after Jimi Hendrix' version of Little Wing. Now, if it had cued up Sting's version of the song, I'd have really thought that something was off. Even so, the odds of this happening are really slim.
But, that's the problem with probability. People do actually win the lottery despite the fact that playing it almost guarantees that you'll lose in the long run. So, no, I don't believe that there's anything cosmically "in tune" with iTunes' random algorithm. It's still random. It's just that randomness often provides interesting surprises.

Hello, I would like to share my Outlook calendar with someone (both outlook 2010 users setup as POP 3 no exchange)
I am not sure this is possible since I would like the person that I am sharing it with to be able to see full details of my calendar and edit and make changes furthermore want those changes to be synced and be reflected on my calendar in my Outlook. Is this possible?

This is not possible due to this is Exchange feature but you can use this instruction in order to share. "Share calendars with anyone"

text: LOS ANGELES, July 9, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- As plastic surgeons have proliferated nationwide and particularly here in Southern California, it's gotten more difficult for patients to decide which doctor is best for their situation. The good news is that, even in the highly competitive world of Los Angeles area/ Beverly Hills plastic surgery, certain outstanding doctors really do stand out from the pack. As a highly renowned double board certified Beverly Hills plastic surgeon, Payam Jarrah-Nejad, M.D., F.A.C.S. is notable for his outstanding track record and proven expertise. Dr. J, as he is known to his friends and loyal patients, has earned the respect of his colleagues as well as the gratitude of countless patients. He has been certified by both the American Board of Plastic Surgery and the American Board of Surgery; he is also a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons. While these organizations might not be familiar names to a patient seeking a breast lift in Beverly Hills, for example, Dr. J's certification and involvement is meaningful. As in any field, not all plastic surgeons are equally experienced in the most demanding surgeries, and not all have a consistent record of success. Dr. J's level of respect in the medical community at large indicates that he is among the best in the highly competitive plastic surgery mecca of greater Los Angeles. With Dr. J, surgery and medicine is much more than a job, it is a lifelong vocation. His level of medical knowledge and skill is unquestioned, but he also has been praised for having the touch of a fine artist. Many of the most typical procedures currently being performed, from Brazilian buttock lifts to tummy tucks and other body contouring procedures, require true sculptural ability to ensure the best possible result. Dr. J has earned the applause of countless patients whose surgery actually exceeded their expectations. Even so, many patients who want plastic surgery are hesitant because of unpleasant stories they might have heard in the news media or from friends. Dr. J and his staff would like the public to know that, especially with a respected and experienced practitioner, those concerns are vastly overblown. With Dr. J, former patients and colleagues agree, knowing you're in good hands at your doctor's office will be a foregone conclusion. This knowledge is important, as being relaxed and confident in the success of your procedure may actually help to speed the recovery process.

2010 Dodge Ram 1500 Questions
Get answers to questions about your 2010 Dodge Ram 1500 at RepairPal. Find solutions, diagnose problems and get back on the road.Refine by vehicle
labor time and amount?
have cold air just not moving with dials when i change them
My dodge ram is a 2010, with 52,00O miles.
The conditioned air is routed elsewhere. There is a sound that seems to be coming from the glove box that sounds like a big rat trying too get out. I'm afraid of a dealership maintenance cost can a mop & pop type of garage could handle that type of work.?
Truck shift on the wheel freezes when I tried to park the truck. Truck is locked in R, brake pedal will not depress and once truck is tunrned off will not turn over at all. After the truck has sat for a couple hours starts up no problems. Hit or miss when it will happen. Has occurred x2 in 2 days and almost stranded me in NY while there for job interview. Manual shows symbol representing malfunction. Any help or advice would be appreciated.
Loud ticking noise. Took it to dealership today. Can anyone tell me if the Exhaust Manifest broken bolts is cover by the extended warranty
2010 dodge ram sb\2wd\quad cab had the front frame rails sectioned and replaced. Vehicle has sustained identical repairs. Are these sections available for re-replacement, or are they now subject to the entire frame being replaced? What are i-car approved and manufacturers recommendation of the repair method? This one is killing me.
Can anyone give me some detail on maybe a sensor that could popped loose or something?
I'd like to replace with heated mirrors with turn signals and puddle lamps. Is the wiring harness in my truck capable?
I get a engine/transmission light on the dash and then the truck automatically goes from "D" drive to (usually) 4th. Starting from a stop light, it feels like slipping or something just holding the engine back. Most of the time will be able to go back into "D", but eventually goes back to the "+/-" and the display in 4th. Anyone seen this before?
My mother has owned her 2010 Ram for two years. She recently pulled up the curb into driveway and car went into 4x4 mode by itself. I on the other hand have driven it for a year and it has never went into 4x4 mode unless I turn the knob. my mom is 72 years old and you know how that goes, Nothing is her fault and she didn't turn the knob. So my question is can the knob be knocked into 4x4 mode trying to turn down the fan down or up? or can it go into 4x4 mode randomly by itself? (side note- took to dodge dealer and they found nothing wrong, Electrical or otherwise)

Gary Hall is a theorist, writer and experimental publisher, working in the areas of media, philosophy, art and politics. He is Professor of Media and Performing Arts in the Faculty of Arts & Humanities, and Director of the Centre for Disruptive Media, at Coventry University, UK. He is author of Pirate Philosophy (MIT Press, 2016), The Uberfication of the University (Minnesota UP, 2016), Digitize This Book! (Minnesota UP, 2008), and Culture in Bits (Continuum, 2002). He is also co-author of Públicos Fantasma - La Naturaleza Política Del Libro - La Red (Taller de Ediciones Económicas, 2016) and Open Education (Rowman and Littlefield International, 2014), and co-editor of Experimenting (Fordham UP, 2007) and New Cultural Studies: Adventures in Theory (Edinburgh UP, 2006).
In 1999 he co-founded the critical theory journal Culture Machine. In 2006 he co-founded Open Humanities Press (OHP). He also co-edits OHP's Liquid Books series and the Jisc-funded Living Books About Life series.
He has given lectures and seminars at institutions around the world including the Australian National University, Columbia University, European University Institute, University of Heidelberg, University of Calfornia, Irvine, K.U. Leuven, Lund University, Monash University, New York University, University of Southern California, the Onassis Cultural Centre in Athens, and the Reina Sofia Museum in Madrid. With over thirty peer-reviewed publications in edited books and academic journals including American Literature, Angelaki, Cultural Studies, Journal of Visual Culture, New Formations, The Oxford Literary Review and Radical Philosophy, his work has been translated into Chinese, French, Japanese, Turkish, Russian, Slovenian and Spanish. He is currently developing a series of politico-institutional interventions that draw on digital media to actualise, or creatively perform, critical theory; and completing a new monograph, Übercapitalism / Data Commonism.
He is associated with the development of a number of concepts and critical practices, including 'open media', 'liquid theory', 'living books', 'radical open access', 'the microentrepreneur of the self', 'affirmative disruption', 'disruptive humanities', 'übercapitalism', and 'pirate philosophy'.
His research is characterised by its experimentation with:
- Operating collaboratively and collectively - as he does with a number of different actors, groups and organisations, some of which go under the names of Culture Machine, the Centre for Disruptive Media, and the Radical Open Access Collective.
- Working on a nonprofit basis - all of Open Humanities Press' books and journals are available open access on a free gratis basis, and many of them libre too.
- Acting in a non-rivalrous, non-competitive fashion to explore new models of economy, property and ownership (see OHP's sharing of its expertise and publications with other open access publishers). These new models include those associated with online file sharing networks, shadow libraries, and so-called internet piracy.
- Taking a hyper-political approach to open access, free and open source software, open data, open science and open education.
- Gifting labour as a means of developing notions of the community, the common, and of commoning that break with the conditions supporting the unified, sovereign, proprietorial subject.
- Developing projects that are concerned, not only with representing or critiquing the world, but also intra-acting with the world in order to make things happen. Hall terms these performative projects 'media gifts'.
The projects with which Hall is involved are not confined to the world of critical theory. One way of thinking about his work is as a plurality of forms of intervention that respond to specific issues across a number of different sites: art, activism, education, business, culture, politics, technology and the media. Their shared aim is to disarticulate the existing playing field and foster instead a variety of antagonistic spaces that contribute to the development of counter-institutions and counter-environments. This is why a range of different interventions have been produced: because the 'counter-hegemonic struggle is a process involving a multiplicity of ruptures'. What these different performative media projects have in common is they are all characterised by a hyper-political willingness to open up an unconditional space for thinking about politics and the political beyond the ways in which they have conventionally been conceived.
The political here is not merely about the kind of intended consequences and affects that can be articulated in advance. The political is also something that has to be invented and created in relation to specific practices, in particular contingent situations and contexts, by performing the associated decisions, and otherwise doing things that may be unanticipated and unpredictable - and which are thus beyond analysis. There is something artistic and poetic about this invention: it is not just theoretical or philosophical. Hence Hall's interest in poeticity and singularity; and why he describes his media gifts as operating at the intersections of art, theory, media and politics.
Übercapitalism / Data Commonism, his current work-in-progress, can be understood very much in these terms. It is designed not merely to offer a critique of the for-profit sharing economy businesses of platform capitalism. Data Commonism / Übercapitalism is also intended to form part of an expanded, interrupted, iterative text involved in creating a performative media project that is concerned with intra-acting with the world in order to invent a different, more caring future: for the sharing and gig economies; for our towns and cities; but also for post-industrial, post-capitalist society. The aim of this project is to make a counter-hegemonic intervention by re-articulating the situation in a new configuration, thus affirmatively disrupting digital capitalism so that we might begin to replace Uber, Airbnb, Deliveroo et al with a multi-polar consortium of counter-information and data platforms. Among other things, Übercapitalism / Data Commonism asks: can we work collaboratively to invent new ways of organising platforms, institutions, and communities that don't just repeat the anti-political reductionism, lack of criticality and individualistic, liberal democratic humanism that is a feature of other accounts of community and the Commons, including those associated with platform cooperativism? What if we were to devise our own collaborative community or data Commons as a way of creating an actual, affective point of potentiality and transformation - not least in order to counter übercapitalism and its for-profit sharing economy?
- Interrogating those fundamental propositions that are taken for granted by theories of data, the digital and the Commons.
The word 'data' has its English origins in the mid-17th century as the plural of the Latin word 'datum'. The latter means a proposition that is assumed, given, or taken for granted, upon which a theoretical framework can be constructed or a conclusion drawn as a result of reasoning or calculation.
It is those propositions that our culture assumes as a given in order to construct theories and draw conclusions about data, software and algorithms that Hall investigates. They include the 'digital', in many ways now an irrelevant attribute given nearly all media involve 'becoming with' digital information processing - as indeed do things as diverse as our entertainment, transport, banking, fuel, food, and fresh water-supply systems. Other datum points are the human, technology, the printed text, the network, copyright and IP. For example, who does the measuring when it comes to data and who it is this measuring for? Conventionally, it is the human subject. (It is people who are the presumed vieers of data visualizations, for example. So these visualizations contain an implicit humanism.) With what? With technology and tools seen as separate from the human (which is the case even if the data is machine read). How are the measurements – the data – recorded, published and disseminated? Print texts and computerized information networks. How is this circulation controlled? Through copyright.
The etymology of the word data thus raises an important issue for the idea of a data Commons. Datum points that are at risk of being taken for granted in the construction of such a theoretical framework and that Hall analyses in his work include capitalism, liberalism, humanism, freedom, democracy, community, communism, and even the Commons itself.
- Engaging with the existing institutions (e.g. the law, politics, the press) so as to transform them.
Since they are the institutions to which theorists are most closely tied, Hall focuses in particular on the university and the scholarly publishing industry, together with their associated liberal humanist values, protocols and practices, based as they are on ideas of the individual proprietorial author, authenticity, the codex print book, and the finished (and finishable) static object. The idea is to interrogate and transform what it is to create, publish, and disseminate knowledge and research. Some of Hall's projects thus concentrate on the book, fixity, and copyright; others focus on education, teaching, the archive, and academic social networks.
Pirate Philosophy, for example, examines the material factors of intellectual labour. In marked contrast to the 'zombie' discourses of much 'new materialism', the latter includes, for Hall, the work of 'publishers, editors, peer-reviewers, designers, copy-editors, proof readers, printers, publicists, marketers, distributors, retailers' (as well as that of the 'agency workers, packers, and so-called "ambassadors" in Amazon's "fulfillment centers")'. It also takes in 'the financial investments made' when producing, publishing and distributing scholarship and research, 'the energy and resources used, the plants, minerals, dyes, oils, petroleum distillates, salts, compounds and pigments, the transport, shipping and container costs, the environmental impact, and so forth'. Meanwhile Disrupting the Humanities: Towards Posthumanities, a special video issue of the Journal of Electronic Publishing edited with Janneke Adema, addresses the seminar and seminar series, the talk, 'paper', or presentation, and the journal issue, as well as the individualistic nature of most humanities (and posthumanities) research.
It is important to actively engage with institutions, as far as Hall is concerned, because simply abandoning or rejecting them in favour of establishing places outside where 'the common' can be achieved risks our work being co-opted by these institutions all the more. Witness the way the Autonomist Marxist theorists Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri end up supporting the aggressive, profit-maximizing capitalist publishing companies Amazon and Penguin Random House. There is little sense of these post-operaists thinkers transforming the accepted common sense rules of the game regarding how theory and criticism is produced, published, and circulated (i.e., as original, rational, linearly written and organised, copyrighted books), so that a new politics of scholarly publishing can be articulated based on communism or the Commons.
From this point of view, and as Hall et al show in Open Education:
- there is no outside to the academy or university in any simple sense, this idea of an outside being itself an academic (i.e. a philosophical) idea, even if it is one that has not always been theorized rigorously.
- efforts to occupy a place or space that is autonomous from the traditional university (whether they are physically located outside the institution or not) too often end up unwittingly trapped inside it, in the sense of unconsciously repeating many of its structures and problems. In particular, such efforts tend to take insufficient account of the way many of those involved in establishing such supposedly autonomous institutions are themselves the products of, and maintain a relationship with, the traditional university.
- attacking the 'public' university poses a danger of lending force to neoliberalism's practice of bolstering global corporate institutions while simultaneously undermining nearly all others.
- there is a case to be made for supporting and defending the university as one of the few remaining public spaces where difficult, challenging and avowedly non-commercial ideas can still be developed, explored and disseminated. As the recent student protests attests, the university is one of the few places where the imposition of neoliberalism and its emphasis on production, privatisation and the interests of the market is still being struggled over or even actively resisted.
- creating autonomous spaces 'outside' of the established institutions risks leaving the traditional university - and the scholarly publishing industry - in place and unquestioned.
- The use of numerous and at times conflicting figures, voices, registers, and semiotic functions - multiple differential authorial 'I's, as it were - in order to transform his own work processes and produce something different: not only from the microentrepreneur of the self übercapitalism is making us become; but also from the liberal humanist subjectivity that is the default alternative adopted by even the most supposedly radical of theorists.
In Pirate Philosophy Hall adopts the persona or mask of the pirate, someone who tries, tests, teases and troubles as well as attacks; while in The Uberfication of the University he articulates his subjectivity in terms of the experimenter. The latter is someone who is not endeavoring to speak for a universal subject, be it 'man, humanity, the nation, the people, the proletariat'. In fact, an experimenter does not have a pre-given addressee, whether this be known as a 'public', 'readership', 'audience', or 'market', that they are trying to communicate with, win over, and seduce. Rather, they are by definition involved in questioning the limits of pre-constituted fields to ask, what is art, writing, thought—or, in Hall's case, what is theory, and what is it to be a critical theorist?
So he is not necessarily trying to come up with a big, new, masculine philosophical system or ontology of his own; something to rival those of accelerationism, speculative realism, or 'the stack', say - which of course is what theorists and philosophers traditionally do. (Accelerationism, object-oriented philosophy, media archaeology, et al are quite conservative philosophies in that respect.) Instead, he is more interested in exploring multiple different ways of being, different ways of doing things as a theorist, different ways for theorists to organise themselves and their subjectivities. Rather than simply positioning his philosophy in opposition to that of competing thinkers, Hall frequently articulates it by collaborating critically and creatively with the work of other contemporary political theorists: e.g, Raymond Williams, Richard Hoggart and Stuart Hall in Culture In Bits; Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri in New Cultural Studies; Samuel Weber in Experimenting; Jodi Dean in Digitize This Book!; Bernard Stiegler and Rosi Braidotti in Pirate Philosophy; Chantal Mouffe is Übercapitalism / Data Commonism. It is a manner of doing things that ensures his theory is not always the same in every situation and circumstance. Instead it responds in singular ways to specific thinkers and specific issues across a number of different sites.
- Reinventing the posthumanities, with a view to decentering the human according to a relational and processual understanding of subjectivity that understands it as being produced by complex meshworks of humans, animals and technologies, as well as a host of other nonhumans, non-objects and non-anthropomorphic elements and energies (some of which may be beyond our knowledge).
To do so, for Hall, we need to act differently as theorists from the way in which the majority of those associated with the posthuman, the nonhuman and the crisis of life itself expressed by the Anthropocene act. In particular, we need to displace the humanist concepts that underpin our ideas of the author, the book, authenticity and copyright, together with their accompanying practices of reading, writing, interpretation, analysis, and critique, by performing these concepts and practices differently in the ways in which we live, work and think.
Approaches to the 'posthumanities' have been dominated by the posthuman Humanities of Rosi Braidotti, Donna Haraway and Cary Wolfe. (A piratical engagement with the humanism of this version of critical posthuman theory can be found in Pirate Philosophy.) Yet Hall speculates that the above transformative understanding of subjectivity may be better articulated in terms of the inhumanities. If the inhuman equals the human intertwined with nonhuman (technology, the animal, insect, plant, fungi and so on), then the inhumanities are the humanities, only with this intra-active inhuman figure at their heart rather than the sovereign, unified, individual human subject of liberal humanism that underlies so many theories of the posthumanities. It is a form of acting, thinking, and working with the nonhuman, in other words; one that takes account of and assumes a processual, intra-active relation with the nonhuman.

"Now You See Her"
I loved this book. Linda Howard's 'Now You See Her' is my all-time favorite book.
"all is well with the world"
good performance loved sweeny and he the right guy for her and there are such people like her glad he understood loved the story
Sassy dialogue, humor, and a great reader are important to me.
"Use New 1.25x speed"
Not sure, I have to re-listen to book using the new speed. This has a good story line and author is one of my all time faves. This reader needs the new speed to give the full impact of author's words.
when our hero is in the apartment with 100 degrees of heat to help
Not sure, but I think this reader is AKA Susan Deneker. I have mixed feelings about her reads if this is indeed her. Susan reads the only Judith McNaught Audible has and I have grown to like it as J.M. is the best writer.
"Very good plot..."
This book was very entertaining. The plot and the characters were very well developed. The ending had a very interesting twist. It was somewhat predictable but the motive and the plot behind it were well thought out.
I'm starting to like the writer's female characters. A common denominator that seems to follow in her books is that the leading lady is strong and independent. They all seem to be self-reliant. At first, I would describe the relationships that develop in the stories as being ones that involve a man "taming" the woman and forcing her into domestication. I am recanting that first initial description and revising it to "the relationships develop with men that do not stifle the independence and self-reliance but rather encourage and cultivate"
"not as good as her other books"
the characters did things that showed little common sense, such as letting people into the art studio knowing there's an unfinished painting of a murder. the main female character has such a goofy name that it seemed silly and a bit ridiculous for her to insist that her love call her by her last name. her cold spells she would get after painting murder scenes might have been interesting but were boring, repetitive and annoying. in these scenes Sweeney seemed whiny more than anything else. she tells the main guy she can't possible have a fling with him because he's still married and at the first cold spell she calling him over to get naked with her and warm her up. my eyes could not stop rolling. she could have simply done what she does later when he's unavailable--take a really hot bath and bundle up. I didn't enjoy this book at all. I usually enjoy Linda Howard' books but this one was too ridiculous for me.
"Good read"
Liked the whole thing. Would make it s good read. Could do without explicit sex description, but I was reading at work lol.
"One of my favorites"
Wonderful story by one of my favorite authors, good narrator.
I've listened to this multiple times.
"Can't put down - or better to say, couldn't stop l"
Fantastic story-line, and I really didn't expect Margo to be the murderer! Narrators were excellent too, thanks for robbing me of sleep! - only kidding!)
Your mileage may vary
"Fun to discover this Howard book"
My library has so many of Linda Howard's novels, and she is one of my favorite authors. This book was new to me, but is about 15 years old. I really enjoyed it. The main characters were believable and there were a couple small surprises in the plot twists. I stayed up quite late to listen to the end of the book, which is a big thumbs up from me.
"Liked very much"
I never read the book only the audio, the beginning was a little hard to listen to but keep listing the story get really good a little predicable but very entertaining all the same.
as I said the beginning was a little hard to get through but the story did develop to be very fun and the thing with the ghosts was a nice twist.
no this was the first audio book I have listened to by Laurel Lefkow the performances was great,.

Happiness Inside
Poem by: attanasio
Status: Finished
Genre: Poetry
By: Joe Attanasio
Like a flower blooming in slow motion
A feeling that engulf us, not just a notion
True happiness from the core
Your troubles, pushed out the door
A sense of well being
Sends worry fleeing
You feel so content
Only peace is present
Your mind at last is free
All your parts agree
Your heart is filled with joy
The energy of a young boy
Your burdens are all gone
Replaced with happy song
You feel as light as air
Gone is all despair
Surrounded by a bubble
That keeps out all the trouble
You feel safe and warm
Immune from any storm

Throughout difficult times in my life I try to look on the bright side. Mostly this is because of the constant clichés that are burned in my ears from my support system. If you have ever been in a difficult time (and we all have) you have heard them too; When life gives you lemons make lemonade, Everything happens for a reason, This is all part of God's plan, There is light at the end of the tunnel, It will get better in time, and the list goes on and on.
After 5 months of the arrangement between Angel's father and me, I am realizing that there really is light at the end of this tunnel. I can't stand being away from my precious Angel. When she is with me I try to spend every second with her. Each time she leaves my heart feels empty, and I literally count down the days until she is home again. Looking on the bright side of the situation, I realize there is a lot of good in it for everyone. Angel's father picks her up on a Friday and brings her back the following Sunday, 10 days a month she is away from me and then 2 months each summer (The summer months are the ones that were the hardest, as most of my readers know). I have 2 free weekends a month. At first I hated this time apart from her, thinking I was missing something, which maybe I am, but it's nothing I won't catch up on as soon as she returns home. These free weekends allow me to catch up on sleep, take a weekend trips, go shopping, go to the beach, date, spend time with my family and time by myself! I have come to welcome this time. I am sure that as she gets older and we get closer to the terrible 2's I will welcome it even more. I am not sure, but I think Angel's father would say something similar. Angel of course gets to spend time with both her parents and our families. Of course in a perfect world there would be a Mommy, Daddy and children that would live happily ever after together, but our world is far from perfect. Angel will most likely have step siblings, half siblings, a step-father, a stepmother, step-grandparents, and step extended families. I have often thought what I will tell her when she asks why her father and I don't live together like some of her friends parents do. I am not sure how I will respond to that. All I know is that she has, and will have a multitude of family that love her, support her and enjoy watching her grow into the amazing person she will become. In the end, isn't that the most important thing?

The sight of Team GB members leaving the celebrity haunt Mahiki on Monday night after consuming a reported £15,000 worth of drinks should come as no surprise.
Since the Games, many of our fine athletes have been enjoying the trappings of a modern celebrity lifestyle, which provide a distraction from the grind of training. Things started when judoka Ashley McKenzie entered that place of ill-repute and fallen stars – the Celebrity Big Brother house. Yesterday it was announced that medal-winners Victoria Pendleton and Louis Smith had signed up to be contestants in this year's Strictly Come Dancing. Surely it is only a matter of time before Channel 4 recommissions the celebrity-sporting reality show The Games, so we can enjoy their talent for what it is.
What else can we expect from our Team GB? Billboards and TV adverts are a given, so are ranges of sporting goods. Then there are the "at home" shoots in the likes of Hello!.
Worse still, it wouldn't be a great surprise to see a few mixing winter sun with publicity with some set-up beach photographs. And don't forget the kiss-and-tells and the likelihood that at least one will pitch their own reality show.
We think we might prefer them when they were just "athletes".Reuse content

Fried Magic
Sweet fried Tilt-A-Whirl, it's time! Friday through October 22, your chance to eat like you have a third stomach and scream your lungs out in happy happiness is here. The State Fair of Texas is backwith its auto show and its livestock auction and its gigantic Ferris wheel. It's so pure. Remember last year when you ate tamale balls and never even made a joke about it? And how long has it been since you ate a foot-long corn dog? Or funnel cake drenched in strawberries and topped with whipped cream, followed immediately by a caramel-covered apple? Too long, my friend. Too long. This year, they're adding Fried Praline Perfection and Fried Coke to the mix. They actually found a way to fry Coke. How can you miss that? Big Tex is calling you out. He's opening his gates and waving you in like, "Can you handle this, biiaaaatch?" And you'd better answer with five rounds of Pirate Ship. Ever puked in front of little kids? It's the best. Of course it isyou're at the State Fair of Texas. Tickets are $13. Kids under 48" tall and grandmas are $9. Children under 2 are free. Call 214-565-9931 or visit bigtex.com.

Gwendolyn: Command
Gwendolyn watched Kiandra's little "tantrum", and a part of her felt like she was watching a childhood scene that she should remember, but simply couldn't. It frustrated her, but nonetheless she found it somewhat amusing.
However, when Derrick began to act tough, her expression changed. He acted as if he had had the worst experiences in his life, and that it justified how he was behaving now. Gwendolyn almost broke the staff through sheer anger.
"I have to keep this secret safe. You are so wrong, Jon. I do have that right. There is nothing you can do to interfere with that."
Even though he released Jon, Gwendolyn stared at him with something bordering contempt. "Be that as it may, you are acting far from your position."
Derrick stared at her then, flabbergasted. "You... what gives you..."
"I've been running for my life for three months now... three months. Knowing that being caught would mean my execution, or worse. I've had rocks thrown at me for being what you magisters call a 'witch'. How do you think I feel? But I never saw myself as having the right to use my powers in such a fashion."
"Gwendolyn... know your place." Jon stated, more concerned than actually commanding.
"I'm entitled to let out my emotions, Prince Pelastor. Every living being has the right to let their feelings known." Gwendolyn responded.
"You're just a rogue mage, Gwen," Soren interrupted. "They are members of royal families."
"And how does that make me less than they are? For all you know, I could be the strongest one here."
"I've had enough of that insolent tongue of yours, brat!" Derrick spoke, and in anger, cast his manipulation spell on her, causing her arms to extend like she was chained to some invisible wall. But Gwen stared back, not looking even remotely concerned.
"You will release me." Gwendolyn spoke, and to everyone's surprise, including Derrick's, she was released from his spell.
"How... how...?" He was about to try again, but Gwendolyn spoke once more.
"You will never use that spell against me ever again." And try as he might, the spell simply wouldn't come and manifest around Gwendolyn. As if his body refused to cast it against Gwendolyn.
His eyes widened in shock. Everyone was in shock. Gwendolyn included. "Did I just... do that?"
It was Kiandra who broke the silence. "What exactly ARE you?" Gwendolyn stared at her, a hurt expression on her face.
"Your guess is as good as mine." And she dropped to her knees and covered her face, no longer certain of who she was anymore... or rather, what she was anymore.
