text: During the Landry years, the Cowboys lineman would head to the line of scrimmage and set down, then stand to hide the players behind them, who were quickly changing positions, before resetting (called a "chorus line"). But with the multiple set offense, the opposing team didn't know what was going on in the middle of the play, and who was in what position. I know this was used to prevent the other team from using tendencies (or keys) to guess the play call. I have a number of questions about the practice and why it is no longer used (or did anyone ever use it outside of the Cowboys)? I think multiple sets are still used today. I know Bledsoe calls a run and a pass and can check off to one or the other at the line of scrimmage. Does this run vs pass "audible" prevent a multiple set offense? Does a multiple set offense have a place in today's game? Can defensive players be confused about the play if they miss a change in the backfield?

This post is a short review of my experiences at the test automation day in Rotterdam last Thursday. If you are following tester circles on twitters, you will be aware that test automation is one of the hot topics at the moment, especially in the CDT realms, but I will try to stay out of that debate here and focus more on the conference itself.
Test automation day was actually the first big, international conference I attended, so I was quite excited to go there and the first shock at the registration didn't really ease that. I wasn't on the attendance list and there was no name badge for me (any "I don't have a picture for you today" resemblances from that top model reality show are completely coincidental!). But things luckily got sorted out and I got a newly printed name badge and was allowed in. Phew!
Talks were mixed between keynotes and smaller parallel track talks, so nothing unusual here, so here is a small summary of the talks I attended:
What really happens when you deliver software quickly?
Sally Goble , head of quality for the guardian opened the day with this keynote. And what a keynote it was. She described the pains they were having with their automation and a rather radical solution for easing those pains: Getting rid of it! Now that's quite an opener for a conference named test automation day, isn't it? Instead of bloating their testing, they went for less testing, more monitoring and quicker releases along a motto called "not long wrong". So it's a matter of quick feedback and adaption instead of exaggerated testing. The talk was well presented (you can find the slides here) and I was able to catch up with Sally Goble later to get some information about their approach, which I find highly interesting. I especially liked the idea of canary releases: release something to a small audience and see if it works (well, as cruel as it was, but that's what canaries where used for in the coalmines of the past…).
Test Automation Health
The second keynote was held by Mark Fewster and dealt with the value side of test automation. When is test automation value, provides a return on invest and more important how can you maintain it after the honeymoon period? The main take aways in my opinion were that automation supports testing (don't you just automate everything, okay?) and test automation has a death wish. So to keep test automation healthy, don't just look at your test cases for maintenance but at the automation framework as well and make that a goal as well.
Test Automation Smells
Next up test automation smells by @hauptmab – the most appropriate session for someone who literally can't smell pic.twitter.com/76exNN9bRD
— Christian Kram (@chr_kram) 23. Juni 2016
can and he presented a tool his company Qualicen developed to improve test quality in terms of code quality via static code analysis. This is actually an interesting approach I have put some thoughts into recently as well (well, without a tool of its own that is). The bad thing about the tool presented here? It only works with the ranorex test automation framework. So if you are using this one, you should probably have a look.
Monetizing Automation
I was hoping for some more value discussion here. Well, not really. Sezen de Bruijn facilitated the session and it was more or less a presentation on pretty generic answers to the question why we automate with a quick discussion of these whys. In hindsight I probably should have attended a session on Reaching symbiosis of Exploratory and Automation Testing which Mirjana Kolarov gave in a parallel slot. Judging from the tweets flying around that one seemed more interesting.
Model-based testing of probabilistic programs
The third keynote of the day was more scientific. Marielle Stoelinga , who is an Associate Professor at University of Twente presented her research on how probabilistic theory adds to model based testing. My personal take on model based testing has changed a bit over the last years and months and I am not as convinced as I used to be. Don't get me wrong, I still think it can help testers, but I feel that it is more of a scholarly approach not too applicable in everyday work. Every professor I hear talking about it seems to point out that it will be the way of testing to be done in the future, but I haven't really heard any practitioners talk on it. Anyway, I still liked the idea of including probability into testing as it goes beyond the pass/fail dichotomy and takes statistics into account.
Automation, Now, Then, Where
The next session was facilitated by Richard Bradshaw , who is a really friendly guy. And I don't just say that because he sponsored my ticket (thanks a bunch!), but because he is! His session was more interactive which people really seemed to like. He made people talk about the now and then of automation and gave his idea afterwards. And you did notice that it was all about automation and not just test automation, did you? Huge difference! So this one really hit a nerve and resonated well.
Taking responsibility: Why are just the testers testing?
This talk went full circle from the opening keynote. Jon Hare-Winton , also of the Guardian, presented how testing as evolved at the Guardian during their transformation, with a slight focus on setting up their mobile testing. It was an interesting addition to the first keynote and helped to get a nice understanding at what they are doing over there.
Can We Deal with Uncertainty and Faults in a Systematic Way?
The closing keynote by Alexandre Petrenko was a scientific one on model based testing as well. I found the speaker hard to follow and didn't really agree with all of it and it seems I wasn't the only one. At least someone raised up in the Q&A part and asked "I don't really believe you. Could you maybe give us an example?"
The whole conference was really well organized and you had always time between sessions to get to talk with other people. And for me, that was the best part of it. I got to talk to some of the presenters and quite a few interesting people, which I can't name all in here (and that's only maybe because I don't remember all the names…). Overall I really enjoyed my time at the conference. The three main themes that I sensed were
- automation is more than just test automation
- automation supports testing, but doesn't replace it
- there are ideas and approaches beyond automation
I haven't really checked if all presentation are available to the public yet, but some of them are in case you are interested in those.

Best Mid Tower EATX Option 02/04/2014
This review is from: Rosewill ARMOR-EVO - Gaming Mid Tower Computer Case - Supports Up to E-ATX MBs - Six (6) Pre-Installed Fans: 2 x Front Red LED 120mm, 2 x Top 120mm, 1 x Side 230mm, 1 x Rear 120mm (Supports Up to 9)
Excellent space, easily consumes EATX motherboards and full size video cards.
Good options for both liquid and air cooling solutions and well designed/flexible airflow management.
Supplied fans are nearly silent!!
Cable management is a breeze with the available routing options.
If you have a high powered, liquid cooled project in mind that involves 3X120 radiators, you will have to mount it externally. But you're probably going to get a full tower for that build anyway, For anything else just get this case!!
Other Thoughts:
This is an excellent bargain for any build short of a cost is no option water cooled monster. It would be nice to have more removable filter panels to cut down on dust.

"Yeah, that was a normal effort for me," Evans said postgame. "I just came to play."
Consider that the understatement of the year.
Evans put on the best offensive half of basketball seen thus far this weekend. He scored 23 points (the opposing team only had 20) in the first half, on 7-for-9 shooting, including 3-of-4 on three-pointers and 6-of-6 at the free throw line.
In the second half, the Raiders' coach opted to slow the pace and coast to the win, since they only had six players and were showing signs of wearing out. That backfired, however, as Fox Valley came roaring back to take a 54-51 lead in the final minutes.
"I wanted to do what I had to do [in the second half], but we didn't have a lot of guys, so we slowed it up," he said.
Evans had a quiet second half, losing his rhythm with the slow-down pace, but took charge with the game in jeopardy. First came a fadeaway three-pointer from the top of the key – in which he created separation without a dribble – and then he drove and dished to a teammate for a three-point play with 2.6 seconds remaining for the win.
He finished with 31 points (10-19 fg, 4-7 3pt, 7-7 ft), five rebounds, four assists and two steals.
Simply put, Evans does it all on offense. If there's a way to put the ball in the basket, he can do it, whether with long, arcing three point strokes, drives to the basket, soft floaters in the lane, fadeaways on the baseline, or just about any other shot imaginable. He's also a capable defender, with long arms, quick feet, and great reaction time on defense, as evidenced by his gobbling up of an opponent's pass attempt.
He's excellent at creating separation to get his shot off, has long arms and big hands (perhaps foretelling future growth) and, while he is physically gifted, it doesn't look like he's maxed out physically at an early age like many other precocious players. He handles the ball well and is an able passer, too (as shown by his drive and dish for the game winning basket), though he's best when the ball is in his hand (particularly at crunch time, as shown by his downright brutal three-point shot in a defender's face to tie the game at 54).
He's so talented that one of his team's most effective plays was "Clear Out Easy Money," which was an isolation play set up for Evans to beat his man - which he did at will during the first half. Simply put, his talent is immense, and it's downright frightening to think how much better he might get as he grows into his body and becomes more muscular.
In early class of 2008 rankings, Evans is at or near the top of the list. But this weekend he proved to be one of the best performers regardless of class.
Not bad for his premier big-time event.
"This is my first year [on the national stage], but I'm looking forward to having some big tournaments this year," he said.
A 6-4 shooting guard, Evans rightfully said the one component of his game that could use the most improvement is the mid-range jumper, though he hit quite a few on Saturday afternoon.
"My pull-up jumpshot [needs work], because when I play against big guys, I need to have that," he said.
As for an early school? He rattled off North Carolina, Arizona, Illinois, Syracuse, Notre Dame, and made it clear he could keep going listing all the colleges showing early interest. Those listed have already made a visit to his school to check him out, including North Carolina.
"They've been to my school," he said of the Tar Heel coaching staff. "I've got a lot of interest in them. They stay in touch with my brother – he handles things for me because I'm young right now."
Evans has already been to Chapel Hill and attended more than one Carolina game.
"I went to a couple of their games this year," he said. "I talked to Roy Williams for a little bit."
As for teams he's rooted for while growing up? That question's easy for Evans.
"North Carolina – that's it," he said. "I've got family down here, my brother and I were born in Fayetteville. We have our family reunion down here."
Evans goes so far as to say the Tar Heels are his clear favorite and the team he intends to play for.
"I'm looking forward to going there if everything goes right – yeah, it'll be Carolina," he said definitively.

Tranmere produced a fine performance in their home FA Cup third round tie but it wasn't enough as a late goal from Wolves earned them the win.
Rovers showed all the effort and determination of recent weeks and could easily have been ahead by half time. Further chances came in the second half but some fine goalkeeping and errant finishing meant the Premier League side were still in the game and Matt Jarvis' strike proved the difference between the sides.
Les Parry named an unchanged team from the one that faced Carlisle six days earlier, with Zoumana Bakayogo, Paul McLaren and John Welsh all recovering from knocks.
Rovers started the game brightly with Terry Gornell and Craig Curran quick to close down the Wolves defence and their persistence earning Gareth Edds a shooting chance on four minutes, but his effort went straight to Welsh international goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey.
Luke Daniels had to react quickly to punch clear a dangerous Wolves corner on 16 minutes and the visitors had two more corners in quick succession on 25 minutes but both were cleared by Paul McLaren.
A sparkling counter attack on 32 minutes brought the closest either chance had come to a goal. Ian Goodison raced up the left to receive the ball from John Welsh and the pair exchanged passes twice with Goodison superbly side stepping Richard Stearman before Welsh's attempted chip was caught by Hennessey.
The move fired the home fans and players, and within two minutes the Wolves keeper had been forced into fine saves to keep out shots from Edds and Walsh. From the corner that followed Welsh's bottom corner bound effort Ian Thomas-Moore came agonisingly close to netting, but his header was cleared off the line by Kevin Foley.
Rovers were nearly punished for not taking their chances, with Wolves quickly racing up the other end and creating a good chance for Matt Jarvis but his close range shot went wide of the target.
Luke Daniels produced an excellent one handed save to keep out Sylvan Ebanks-Blake's close range header ten minutes into the second half after the visitors started the period at a high tempo.
At the other end McLaren shot high over the bar while Gornell's header at Hennessey was adjudged to have been offside.
As the already cold temperatures continued to drop Tranmere had a golden chance to open the scoring. Gornell challenged Hennessey for the ball which broke loose six yards out and the striker reacted fastest but his shot hit the side netting.
Curran volleyed wide with his left foot from 12 yards as Rovers pressed forward, and the striker did well to force a corner on 74 minutes, with Mancienne heading behind.
At the other end Goodison was getting his head in the way of almost every Wolves cross and the defender raced out of his area to take the ball from Jarvis on 75 minutes.
However, the visitors took the lead two minutes later. A through ball went between Taylor and Goodison and into the path of Jarvis who shot first time into the bottom right corner from 12 yards.
Gornell and Welsh were replaced by Chris Shuker and Michael Ricketts with just under ten minutes remaining, with Shuker winning a corner following a long run on the left wing.
The set piece almost brought the equaliser with the ball falling to Curran at the far post only for Hennessey to block his shot.

There's great pleasure to be had from regularly visiting well-worn paths on your home patch, where familiarity heightens awareness of change. At least once a month, we follow a circular route through the larch plantation beside Harthope Burn, across the flanks of Chapel Fell, down to Daddry Shield and back through the riverside meadows. The view of upper Weardale from the highest point is exhilarating and most visits reveal something memorable: golden plover in spring; orchids in summer; wandering hen harriers in autumn.
After 30 years following the same route we thought we were familiar with everything it has to offer – until this morning. My wife Sue turned and whispered: "Look, a red squirrel!" I was sceptical. Informed opinion has it that the last surviving population at Killhope, 10km further up the dale, is destined to follow all of Durham's other red squirrels into local extinction. It's now 20 years since I last saw one elsewhere in Weardale. But Sue was right. It peered around the larch trunk to scold us, revealing handsome ear tufts and an almost black bushy tail, then raced to the crown of the tree and settled down to feed.
Where had it come from? Even in pre-grey squirrel days we'd never seen one here. A wanderer from Killhope? A survivor from an overlooked local population? Part of some well-meaning, freelance reintroduction programme? This solitary sighting of what may be one of the last red squirrels in Weardale brought conflicting feelings of elation and loss. Its chestnut coat shone in the morning sunlight as it leapt between tree tops, showering us with a blizzard of golden larch needles every time it landed on a branch. We stood below, staring upwards until our necks ached, determined to memorise every second of the encounter.

Hero and Heroine's RewardMature
Marcus barely noticed as the others left. His beast was aware, but it was not a conscious thing. He simply relaxed as he and Xenia were left on their own.
He was very conscious of the warmth of Xenia's hand on his arm. The points where her fingers touched bare skin between bandages burned in his awareness. Likewise the feel of her wrist against the pads of his fingers and his palm was like a beacon to his senses.
Her smell was there, faint in the air, reminding him of walking into the bathroom after she had showered and the smell of her shampoo and the body wash she loved. He had no idea what it was supposed to smell like, he just knew it smelled like Xennie. Thus, it smelled good.
His eyes were trained on his arm, the point of contact, and when her eyes returned to him after she assured herself that the others really were gone for the moment, she noted it and flushed. As she started to pull her hand away, though, to try to tug her wrist from his grasp, he halted her with a simple "wait."
Her tongue darted out and she licked her lips. She wasn't going to say anything. He had grabbed her wrist, asked her to stay with him. But he had been the one to push her away in the first place. It was up to him. It was hard, though. It felt like the words filled her throat, pressed against her tongue, desperate to spill out into the air. All the things she hadn't said before, all the things she had so desperately wanted to say.
But it was his turn to say something. To decide.
"Xennie...," he rasped, his voice still rough, "I'm sorry. I was an idiot. I almost was again. You deserve someone who isn't... a monster. Someone better than me. I don't think I can though." He looked at her then, meeting her eyes. Xennie saw something there, hunger that answered the one inside her. The one that demanded an end to waiting, an end to simply accepting and hoping.
Not yet, though. It wasn't enough. Not yet. She needed more.
"Marcus... you aren't a monster. Unless I am." Clenching her jaw, she looked away, unable to bear the way he was looking at her without kissing him, without eating at his lips.
He made a sound of denial, yanking the IV out of his arm, starting to tug at the bandages that swathed his chest. His movements were easier, although he gave the odd grunt of pain. "You aren't a monster, Xennie. I understand that now. But I am. For what I did... I didn't want you to know that about me. What I used to do." He wasn't eloquent, not about this. The Fraternity had been his life, had schooled him to be a warrior for the cause. They had not left much room for speaking about feelings, about anything that might be viewed as weakness.
Clearing his throat, he realized his thumb had begun to graze her wrist and he released her, lifting his hand to her cheek. Her own hand remained on his arm, following the gesture. He cupped her chin with the angle of his thumb, turning her head until she finally returned her eyes to his. Where he had pulled the bandages away she saw that he was bruised, still raw, but the wounds had knit together far more than she would have thought possible. Angry welts covered his skin, but they were not open slices. He no longer looked like raw hamburger.
The pressure of Marcus' thumb brought her attention back to his face, but her astonishment showed. "I heal fast. Faster now, it seems. I think the stuff in the IV helped. But Xennie..." He growled then. Finding the words was hard. His beast was impatient. The wolf inside him demanded, didn't understand why he was waiting. The instincts that had so recently come to the fore inside him understood on the level of need that she wanted him. She was his, and the wolf understood that. A thought flitted through his head, wondering where the wolf had been all the time he'd been living with her, wondering why it hadn't just made that leap for him to accepting. Then again, she hadn't been a werewolf then. But he'd known. It was why he had stayed away, pushed her so hard. He'd known he wanted what she offered, all of it.
Thought was difficult though. He could feel the warmth of her there beside him could see the uncertainty on her face mingled with her own beast's demands. Could see it in her face. Could feel it in the way her body had started to tremble. He could even smell it.
"I'm not leaving you. I can't. I belong with you." It was the most coherent he could be, although he wondered if she could even understand him. His voice had become a rough growl by the end, all his energy going to restraining himself.
Then Xennie smiled at him, not quite the smile he knew so well. This was, well, more. It was the smile of a woman who knew exactly what she wanted. It was just a touch scary, but Marcus didn't really mind.
They collided and he felt the bite of his wounds. Even if they were no longer jagged, bleeding wounds, he was not healed. Not completely. There was a lot of internal damage to fix. It hurt having her crushed against his chest, but that wasn't going to stop him. Not as her mouth found his and he finally bit at her lower lip, not as one hand found her lower back and slid up under the hem of her shirt. His palm spread over the flare of her hip and he felt her shiver. Biting her lower lip again he heard her squeak, a sound of surprise that made him chuckle possessively.
His other hand found its way into her hair, fingers tangling there, tilting her head to give him greater control. She fought it, forcing him to tighten his hold, to strain just a little with muscles that protested brutally.
It was pennance. Every burn of pain was payment for the pain he had caused her, and payment for the pleasure he was about to receive. He had learned long ago how to continue through the pain. Now it brought the beast in him roaring forth, still just within the skin. His bones creaked slightly, but the beast held back just that bit.
Xenia's teeth made a foray against his own lip, her mouth eagerly tracing his jaw. Her tongue stroked the hollow below his ear and he growled, pulling her back under his control. He knew that his tolerance, both for resisting her and for the pain that was tugging at his control was still low. So he bent about showing her just how he felt. Words had failed him, but the way his fingers brushed her spine as he tugged off the tight tank she wore whispered of his devotion. The first rasp of his tongue on her neck told her of his gratefulness.
Her fingers were busy, tugging at the bandages that covered his chest, baring wounds that threatened to split as his muscles clenched at the trail her fingertips traced along his ribs. Her short breaths, the eager response he received from her body, it all answered him with all the words he had never let her speak before.
There would be time enough for words later. For now, honesty lay between them as he shed her pants to the sound of ripping seams. Impatience got the best of him, and his mouth traced her breast, tongue circling her nipple. It tightened against his tongue and he tweaked it with his teeth, then abused it with a quick bite. Soft laves of his tongue spoke his apology and he felt her shudder her acceptance.
The blanket that had covered him was shoved away as eagerness burned too hot to be denied. Then her tongue found his hip and he growled again, teeth gnashing. Prickles of blood gathered in the wounds where Alex had pinned him to the wall, but it didn't matter. Her teeth nibbled a path down to his thigh and his breath caught. His fingers dug into her shoulders, pulling at her.
The beast demanded. No more waiting. It was clear enough that hers drove her also. He moved to roll her to her back, to press her into the makeshift mattress he lay on, but she bit hard into his chest, managing to avoid any particular wound. It was enough to clear his head slightly though. Then her tongue swiped over one of the wounds that had begun to split, an odd and oddly comforting gesture.
"You're hurt. Lie back. Let me." Her voice was sure, no longer that of the girl who waited for him to choose the moment, to attack or retreat. He drew in a gasp and felt his hands fasten to her hips as she straddled his waist. Her fingernails lightly traced down his stomach and he found his own scraping up her back, then back down to cup her ass, to pull her against him as he gave a slow, careful rock beneath her.
The way she moaned satisfied his beast, made it glory in the understanding between the two of them. This was what it demanded, the wolf in him. It was not the time for niceties. It was the time for...
The thought flew from his head as he felt the first beginnings of penetration. His fingers dug hard into her hips, unknowingly leaving bruises. Her nails scraped his stomach. They were both beyond any sense of careful. As she lowered her weight, forcing her body to accept his intrusion, welcoming it with ever arch of her back, every gasp that came from between her lips, their beasts gloried in the achieved harmony.
It was wild between them, not the careful gentleness he had imagined those few times he has lost enough grip of himself to consider. Neither was it the agonized need she had dreamed of. It was more. It was complete understanding. Their bodies shifted, finding the right movements. Her hips rolled, his hands pressed her down.
Drops of blood trickled down over his chest and his thighs burned as his wounds tore. Streaks of crimson marred her skin where she brushed against him. The copper tang of blood mixed with the thick scent of sex and desire.
The sounds of rough breathing, of desire and demand, wrapped around them, holding the world out. Sweat trickled down her spine, stood out on his forehead. The salt lanced his wounds, but he did not care.
Then in a blinding moment there was no up, no down. No breath, no words. No need for anything so limited. Existence claimed them, and unity. Then satisfaction flowed in like the tide, slowly creeping through them until it left room for nothing else.
Their beasts gloried in the achievement of what they had longed for, what they would do anything to protect.
Xenia settled herself carefully, wincing as she saw the damage that had been done to Marcus' wounds. He offered soft sounds of reassurance, his hands stroking back her hair, still beyond speaking. And so sleep claimed them.
When Persephone returned later and slipped inside the curtain it was how she found them, entwined, streaked with blood like a hero and heroine returned from the battlefield. A celebration of life.
About damn time, although it would probably been better if they'd waited until Marcus was a little more healed up.
She let herself take a few moments to appreciate the bodies she saw, the sweep of Xenia's hip, the honed lines of Marcus. She stifled a giggle as she caught a glimpse of the rest of Marcus' physique. Xenia was definitely lucky. Then again, so was Marcus.
Silently, Persephone set down the two bundles of gear and clothing she had "acquired." Getting a better look at Marcus she just hoped it would fit, but Orion had given her some advice. He'd also given her some weapons, favourites of his that he hoped Marcus would appreciate. There was a pile of gear for Xenia too, and from what Persephone could see it was probably a good thing. Too bad. She'd liked those pants.
With a smirk she silently crept back out beyond the curtain, leaving them to their privacy. She couldn't wait to tell Enid.

Talk:Artin–Wedderburn theorem
|WikiProject Mathematics
|(Rated Start-class, Mid-importance)
Explanation of removing "rings satisfying these equivalent definitions are artinian semisimple"[edit]
I took this out because it is circular to say "The Artin Wedderburn theorem determines the structure of semisimple artinian rings as products of matrix rings. A ring which satisfies these (equivalent) descriptions is sometimes called semisimple Artinian". The A-W Theorem is not used to define semisimple rings. Moreover, the use of "equivalent descriptions" was also unclear in the deleted sentence... I could not see any more than one description. Rschwieb (talk) 12:01, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
This doesn't seem to solve the ambiguity of what "semisimple ring" means. It only makes the page more confusing, in my opinion. And the defintion of "semisimple Artinian" by the equivalent properties of the theorem is not circular for some authors (including the ones you deleted):
- Kelarev, p. 13: "A ring R is said to be semisimple or ρ-semisimple if ρ(R) = 0. For every radical ρ, the quotient ring R/ρ(R) is semisimple. If ρ is the Jacobson or the Baer radical, then a ρ-semisimple ring is called a semiprimitive or semiprime ring, respectively. Semiprimitive rings are also often called Jacobson semisimple (or semisimple) rings. A ring is right Artinian (Noetherian) if every descending (ascending) chain of right ideals in the ring stabilizes. A semiprimitive ring is right Artinian if and only if it is left Artinian, and so it is called a semisimple Artinian ring."
- Beachy, p. 156: "Theorem 3.3.2 (Artin–Wedderburn): For any ring R the following conditions are equivalent: (1) R is left Artinian and J(R)=(0); (2) RR is a semisimple module; (3) R is isomorphic to a finite sum of rings of n × n matrices over division rings. [Proof ...] Defintion 3.3.3: A ring which satisfies the conditions of Theorem 3.3.2 is said to be semisimple Artinian. [...] Corollary 3.3.4. The following conditions are equivalent for a ring with identity: (1) R is semisimple Artinian; (2) R is left Artinian and semiprime; [...]"
- Anderson-Fuller, 2nd ed., p. 153: "A ring R is said to be semisimple in case the left regular module RR is semisimple. By (13.5) we have that every simple artinian ring is semisimple." Prop 13.5 is a long list of equivalent properties, including that "R is simple and left Artinian" iff "R is simple and right Artinian" iff "R is simple and RR is semisimple" iff "R is simple and RR is semisimple".
- McConnel and Robson, rev. ed., p.3 "1.9 The next few facts connect module properties with ring properties. They comprise the Artin–Wedderburn theory. [Schur's lemma] 1.10 [definition of simple ring, then:] Theorem. The following conditions on R are equivalent: (i) R is a simple right Aritnian ring; (ii) R ≃ Mn(D) for some n and some (uniquely determined) division ring D; [(iii) omitted here]. Note that (ii) is symmetric. So the left-hand version of (i) and (iii) are also valid, and hence R is Artinian. 1.11 [defines nilpotent ideal, then:] Theorem. The following conditions on R are equivalent (i) R is a finite direct product of simple Artinian rings; (ii) RR is semisimple; (iii) Every right R-module is semisimple; [two more, omitted]. Note again the symmetry, provided here by (i) and 1.10. Such a ring R is called a semisimple (Artinian) ring."

- Outside this article, we have semisimple algebra, semisimple ring, semisimple Artinian, Jacobson semisimple ring and also Jacobson ring, with very few links between them. This article is not confusing, because of the footnote explaining "(artinian)". IMO, the terminology is not fixed in the literature, but, because of the importance of W.A. theorem, the use of "semisimple" for "semisimple Artinian" is dominant (that is that I was teached during my studies, where only "semisimple ring" and "Jacobson ring" were used; but it was in France and Bourbaki's terminology was the standard). But, whichever terminology we use, it should be said that "some authors use ..." where needed. It appears also important to reduce the number of articles devoted to only two strongly related concepts. D.Lazard (talk) 19:03, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
- It is not unknown for texts to write something like "Theorem: The following are equivalent properties of an X: A,B,C,D. We define an X to be P if it satisfies the equivalent conditions on X". It is perhaps more common to see "We define an X to be P if it satisfies A. Theorem: the following conditions on an X are equivalent to it being P: B,C,D". Deltahedron (talk) 20:06, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
- @Deltahedron While I'm perfectly familiar with that phenomenon, and that is exactly what the Artin-Wedderburn Theorem is, I wanted to say that it shouldn't be used to define semisimple rings. I didn't think it was appropriate also because there was no more than one description mentioned (being a product of matrix rings over division rings). Secondly, I do not believe that it is at all standard to define a semisimple ring as a finite product of matrix rings over division rings. Every source I have defines them in a different way, and then proves this theorem about their structure.
- @Tijfo098 I never meant to dispute that it is an equivalent condition to being semisimple. What I'm disputing is that nobody uses it as a definition. I also mean to dispute your edit summary that it makes more sense to make the theorem page the defining one. I think it makes a lot more sense to let the semisimple ring/ algebra pages discuss the definition.
- I would be very willing to help make the clarification about semisimple rings more clear. I can see how my last version might be improved in some ways. Feedback is welcome. (I'll start with the feedback given above, too. Rschwieb (talk) 13:11, 15 October 2012 (UTC)

Earth's residents were shocked to discover a doomsday meteor hurtling toward them. Then the meteor decelerated and fell into a leisurely orbit around the Earth, which everyone thought was a pretty nice surprise.
The general consensus of Earth's scientific community was that, unless the laws of physics had another change of heart, it was once again safe to make long term financial investments. World leader announced, one way or another, that this global near-death experience was just one of those things. The cosmos feigned a punch and humankind flinched.
There was a slight but measurable increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide levels as terrestrial populace simultaneously sighed in profound relief. The optimists crawled out from their bunkers, the pessimists finally changed their eating habits, and world governments broke their desperate alliances without so much as a handshake.
The second space race had begun. This consisted of the wealthiest countries of Earth clawing and shoving for a better look at the new neighbor.
The first astronauts to reach the orbiting mystery object reported back: the doomsday meteor was actually a construct of alien design. It was one of those rare moments in human history when the most outrageous explanation turned out to be correct.
A lot of wagered cash changed hands.
Despite the astronauts' best attempts at communication, the alien machine was unresponsive and its hull was totally impregnable.
Everyone waited in awe for the object's next move.
For forty-nine years of declining awe, the alien craft did the very thing everyone really expected but least wanted. It remained silent. The human race, having been such a good sport about everything, was exasperated. They called the craft "Voyeur." Bitter jokes were told about Voyeur on human television networks for years, until every possible joke had been told and there was nothing left to say.
On December 5th, after the "Close Call" generation began dying off – insulted but still secretly craving some sign of acknowledgement – a radio signal was finally received. Following forty-nine years of ultimately disappointing hoaxes and a brief period of official denial, this new signal was finally confirmed to be a genuine broadcast originating from the alien craft.
The signal was looped twelve times before it ceased, each iteration containing a message repeated in every modern language. To the starry-eyed children, lonely astronomers, and doubt-filled religionists of Earth, it sounded like a love poem.
"You are not alone."
The world erupted in screaming, weeping, singing, prayer, andancing in the streets, and a lot of property damage. Most believed this was the beginning of a brand new volume in human history. Parades were held, parties were thrown, debts were forgotten, collectible coins were minted, and memorials were erected. Perhaps more honestly than any generation before, these humans believed it was the best time to be alive.
On December 8th, the probe shot off in the same direction from whence it came. Ever since, people have asked each other: why did Voyeur leave? Was it shy? Is it ever coming back?
Was it something we said?

|Passport Control at Chennai International Airport
Missing passenger facilities at Chennai airport's new international terminal
1. No proper food stalls
There are no food stalls in the terminal except for two coffee shops (Cafeccino and Cafe Coffee Day), and a sweet meat shop by Sri Krishna Sweets. The coffee shops keep some sandwiches and samosa, etc., but no hot food. Coffee / tea prices are thankfully not over the top, like Rs. 90 for a large cappuccino. But this is Chennai and imagine the total absence of any idli-sambar or masala dosa in the terminal. There are a couple of stalls outside the terminal that sell South Indian food, Sangeetha Veg, Madras Coffee House, and the like, but none inside the terminal. The situation does not improve much even in the boarding area. Yes there is a nice airport lounge called "Travel Club" but that is not for everyone. So if your flight is a "low-cost" type with no hope of any good food being served in-flight, better bring your own packed food into this terminal or buy a packet from Sangeetha Veg before you step inside.
2. No WiFi Internet
|The empty help desk at Chennai International Airport
The digital display boards at the terminal advertise the facility of a free WiFi internet for 30 minutes. Alas, the terminal WiFi never connects and there is never any staff at the help desk to guide you on anything. I am sure the Airport Authority of India has given jobs to at least three persons to man the help desk in all the three shifts of the day but maybe only God knows where they spend all their time.
3. No charging points
There are no cellphone or laptop charging points in the terminal. Period.
4. Only one bank ATM
|Indian Bank ATM at Chennai International Airport
There is only one ATM here, of "Indian Bank" and I saw this ATM "Out of Service" on March 8, 2015. Now what if a passenger needs cash in an emergency after entering the terminal? Remember once you enter, you can't leave! Please AAI, Will it hurt to have ATMs of two different banks in this so-called "international terminal"?
5. Two water fountains but no paper cups
Not all the people are comfortable sipping water from water fountains. Water bottles are sold by CCD and Cafeccino at Rs. 30 for 500ml. At New Delhi's T3 there are vending machines selling 500ml water at Rs. 10. Now how does MAA compare with a fully privatised airport? At least AAI can keep some paper cups near the water fountains but perhaps they are trying to look fully international at least in this regard.
6. Inadequate waiting chairs
The waiting chairs for passengers are few and far between and there are absolutely no easy chairs where passengers can stretch their legs waiting for long hours. Bad airport for sleeping.
7. Security Check too slow
This one is perhaps not the CISF's fault with all those pickle jars & ghee tins being carried by the passengers in their hand-baggage but security is really too slow here as compared to the really fast emigration counters.
What is good
The terminal including the wash rooms is clean, has plenty of security personnel, and photography is allowed. There are two or three foreign exchange counters with very bad rates though.
Maybe the rest of the useful things will arrive at this terminal sometime in our future.

Bad decisions, poor performance and government subsidies have set the nuclear industry apart from any sector in Britain, except perhaps for banking.
The reason Britain has the biggest waste mountain of civilian plutonium in the world is down to a bad decision in the 1960s when the nuclear industry proposed turning nuclear waste from civilian reactors into plutonium for burning in fast-breeder reactors.
Technical problems meant that these reactors were never developed commercially – the project was finally abandoned in 1994 – but the plutonium stockpile kept growing. It currently stands at 112 tonnes, including 28 tonnes from foreign reactors that must at some point be returned to their owners.
The stockpile from British-owned reactors is currently 84 tonnes but will reach 109 tonnes by the time all the British-made spent fuel at Sellafield has been dealt with by the Thermal Oxide Reprocessing Plant (Thorp) – the biggest building on the Cumbrian site.
Plutonium is one of the most deadly substances known to man. Minuscule amounts can kill if ingested. It can also be used to make nuclear weapons, which is why governments around the world are so concerned about where and how it is stored.
In the 1990s, the industry proposed dealing with the growing plutonium stockpile by "recycling" it as mixed oxide (Mox) nuclear fuel for burning in thermal reactors. The idea, like so many in the nuclear industry, looked good on paper. By mixing relatively small amounts of plutonium dioxide with bigger amounts of uranium oxide from spent nuclear fuel, it would be possible to fabricate Mox fuel rods containing about 7 per cent "recycled" plutonium from reprocessed reactor fuel.
The industry was so confident that it proposed dealing not just with Britain's plutonium waste but with the waste of other countries, in particular Japan which relied heavily on nuclear power.
Sellafield, then operated by BNFL, started making Mox fuel rods at a demonstration facility while it built a new £498m Sellafield Mox Plant (SMP), specifically for foreign customers. The SMP was completed in 1996 but was only given a licence to open in 2002 after Helen Liddell, the then energy minister, had visited Japan to secure a "statement of intent" from Japanese customers who had been spooked by a scandal over falsified data at BNFL's Mox demonstration facility.
Before it opened, BNFL said that the SMP would be able to produce some 120 tonnes of Mox fuel a year and confidently predicted that it would earn millions in foreign exchange for Britain. But critics warned that this was "voodoo economics", essentially because conventional uranium fuel mined from the ground was at least 25 per cent cheaper than Mox.
But the problems were even greater than anyone had predicted. The SMP was dogged by technical failures. An independent investigation by consultants Arthur D Little – the company that had originally said that SMP made sense – found that the plant suffered something like 37,000 breakdowns a year.
Instead of producing 120 tonnes of Mox fuel each year, the plant has to date produced just 13.8 tonnes since it was opened in 2002. It has supplied just one Swiss company with one batch of fuel, fabricated another batch for a German customer that has yet to be delivered and, most importantly, has not made a single fuel rod for its main customers in Japan.
The cost of the SMP to the taxpayer ballooned to £1.34bn and now the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority, which took over the Sellafield site from BNFL in 2005, said that no Mox fuel will be made or delivered to the Japanese power companies until at least the end of this decade. Meanwhile, the SMP is costing the authority nearly £100m a year in ongoing costs.
The total failure of the SMP has had serious repercussions. The Nuclear Decommissioning Authority has had to subcontract some of the Mox fabrication to Areva, the French nuclear power company that operates a Mox plant at Marcoule. This subcontracted work has led to the transport of half a tonne of highly dangerous plutonium dioxide powder from Sellafield to France under armed guard. According to leaked cables from the US Embassy in London, the UK Government believes the Sellafield Mox Plant is one of the biggest failures in British industrial history.

What Millennials Should Know about International Affairs
Note this from GenFringe.com:
Many millennials are apathetic by nature when it comes to politics, but there are also those who understand that there's a big world out there that we are about to inherit. Education is paramount to success, so just remember to double check everything you hear about International affairs, even if it is from the President himself.
Here's the opening of the post:
By Ali Lawrence
When Barack Obama became president in 2009, he said that it was time for America to restore its image on the world stage. He said that his administration would definitely do just that.
But as his opponent in the 2012 presidential election recently pondered, you'd be hard-pressed to find a single country around the globe that has more respect for America than it did before 2009. What's more, Mitt Romney was right on Russia when he said that the country was America's biggest geopolitical threat in a presidential debate. The president condescendingly disagreed — only to be proven, once again, to be the novice he is.
"When you were asked what's the biggest geopolitical threat facing America, you said Russia, not al Qaeda," Obama said in 2012. "In the 1980s, they're now calling to ask for their foreign policy back because, you know, the Cold War's been over for 20 years."
I thought I would take some time to debunk four apparently popular notions regarding international affairs, perpetuated by the Obama administration and uniformed liberals from all walks of life. Let's take a look:
- Everyone Does Not Hate Americans. Contrary to what the president would have you think, Americans are actually liked abroad. Sure, it's pretty likely that when President Obama sends drones that kill guests at a wedding party in Yemen, for example, some of those people are certainly going to hate Americans. But generally speaking, Americans are nice people and the world understands that and embraces it.

Bracing for the Copyright Cliff
The coming year is a big one for artists whose work was published in 1978. A revision to copyright law allows musicians, authors, or any copyright holders to reclaim their rights after 35 years. For the already-struggling music industry, this could be a lethal blow, or what Kurt Andersen calls the "copyright cliff."
In 1976, Congress passed a new copyright law with a "termination clause" that took effect in 1978. "The legislative intent was to give artists an opportunity to negotiate after the value of the work has been realized," explains entertainment lawyer Lita Rosario, who is filing termination claims for members of Parliament-Funkadelic, including George Clinton.
But copyright holders are bracing for battle, especially in the music industry, where millions or billions of dollars are at stake. Artists like Bruce Springsteen, Styx, Billy Joel, and The Eagles will most likely file paperwork to reclaim rights next year. Rosario, who represents artists, acknowledges that old albums and best-ofs generate far more revenue for the labels than do new releases. "It's not going to mean the end of the record labels," she says, "but they're going to have to figure something out for sure. It's another factor that's going to go into how this industry is reshaped."
Consumers may not notice the change in rights, but they may start hearing more songs from the late '70s popping up in movies, TV, and online. "Recording artists are much more likely to let businesses get access to their music," Rosario says. "The major labels and major publishers are much more restrictive about that."
→ Do you think it's fair that after 35 years, musicians and other artists get their copyrights back from the companies that bought them? Tell us in a comment below.
