How to prepare your walls for decorating
Walls almost always need some surface preparation before you can start painting. Even brand-new plaster needs sealing. You should fill any cracks and holes and make sure all surfaces are clean, smooth and dry. You can paint over emulsion-painted surfaces that are in good condition, but make certain you strip back or sand off any peeling paint.

Monster Yamaha Tech 3 Team begin 2010 preparations
Less than 24 hours after the conclusion to a successful 2009 MotoGP world championship campaign, the Monster Yamaha Tech 3 Team was back in action at the Valencia circuit today to begin preparations for next season.
With track action not commencing until 1pm, this morning gave the team chance to welcome new rider Ben Spies, who will partner fellow Texan Colin Edwards in 2010. It was also an opportunity for his mechanics to acquaint themselves with new crew chief Tom Houseworth, who has been a fundamental part of Spies' successful career to date.
Spies raced to a brilliant seventh place on his Yamaha debut yesterday and his impressive pace cont inued in sunny but blustery conditions today.
For Spies, this afternoon's four-hour session was all about continuing to familiarise himself with Yamaha's YZR-M1 machine. The World Superbike champion opted to work more on refining his own riding style than making alterations to the set-up of his Monster Yamaha Tech 3 machine.
The 25-year-old completed 50 laps with a best time of 1.33.496 making it a positive and productive first day with Tech 3. His time was the sixth quickest today and only 0.8s away from fastest rider Casey Stoner and he knocked a massive 0.6s off his best time posted in yesterday's race.
Fresh from a brilliant fourth place in yesterday's 30-lap Valencia MotoGP race, which secured fifth overall in the final rankings, Edwards completed a short stint of 35 laps while experimenting with wheelbase and front-end settings on his YZR-M1.
Ben Spies - Position: 6th Time: 1'33.496 Laps: 50
"I am really happy to finally make my debut for the Monster Yamaha Tech 3 Team. They are a great team and it feels good to finally get to work with them. Today I was obviously on a different bike but with the same setting that I raced on and it felt good. I improved on my qualifying time so it was a positive and productive day. I really just focused on doing a couple of things different with my style and in the last two sessions I tried to do some things very different and it worked. I was slowly able to chip away at the lap times, so it is encouraging that I'm getting faster and more comfortable without even making any changes to the set-up of the bike. We'll make some changes to the bike tomorrow, more for me to see what I can feel, than looking for big improvements."
Colin Edwards - Position: 12th Time: 1'33.929 Laps: 35
"First of all I want to welcome Ben to the Monster Yamaha Tech 3 Team, or should that be Team Texas. He's joined a fantastic squad and we already love him here because his brilliant Yamaha debut in the race helped me get fifth in the world championship. Personally I'm really excited about working with him in 2010 because he's a talented rider, and I'm sure we'll be motivating each other a lot. I didn't too many laps today and all I did was work on the wheelbase and some different front-end geometry. The bike felt good and we definitely learned a couple of things by making the bike longer. I've got a couple of other things to check on the bike tomorrow and then it will off for a hard earned winter break."

No where left to go. (Trish)
She walked past the streets of a world that made no sense to her. She was deaf to the language they spoke and blind to the actions they did. However, she kept walking but she had no where left to go.
Everywhere she went, she was the odd one out and not necessarily in a good way. She didn't like the feeling and wanted to go to her own world - a world of peace and calm. But no such thing existed and she had no where left to go.
No where left to go...

Bahram Radan is an Iranian actor who is known as the Brad Pitt of Iran. He has thousands of twitter followers. So,Bahram sent an email which sort of caused some problems."The United States supreme court ruling that same-sex marriage is legal was historic on a scale of the end of slavery–from Lincoln to Obama." I guess he was caught up in the moment and forgot for a moment that he was in Iran. The reaction of the government and conservatives was immediate and firm.
The conservative newspaper, Kayan, denounced his twitter as a twitter too far. Bahram soon realized that reality meant sort of denouncing what he wrote. "What was published as my opinion on the US Supreme Court was a mistake." In America rich guys like Sheldon Adelson can force apologies, while in Iran it is the clerics. I guess no lashes for Bahram.

Political regime that exercises a strong intervention in national life, concentrating all state powers in a group or a political party that does not allow participation of other groups. (Real Academia Española: Totalitarismo)
The total state aimed to control not only the economic, political, and social aspects of life but the intellectual and cultural aspects as well. But that control also had a a purpose: the active involvement of the masses in the achievement of the regime´s goals, whether they be war, a socialist state, or a thousand-year Reich (...)
The modern totalitarian state was to be led by a single leader and a single party. It ruthlessly rejected the liberal idea of limited government power and constitutional guarantees of individual freedoms. Indeed, individual freedom was to be subordinated to the collective will of the masses, organized and determined for them by a leader.

Gulag: Traces and Testimonies 1929–1956
The exhibition presents relics of and testimonies to the Soviet camp system collected by the "Memorial" human rights organization all over the former Soviet Union from the 1980s to the present. The exhibition project seeks answers to the following question:
How can the Gulag – a penal camp system already described by its contemporaries as the "quintessence" of Soviet tyranny – be described, how can it be comprehended in all of its dimensions?
Voices of people who experienced it first-hand and biographies of former inmates accompany visitors on their exploration of this remote archipelago and create a panorama of the Soviet camp system.
Objects from the "Memorial" holdings – for example a makeshift bread pouch, a tattered dress or a metal grave tag – make the everyday lives of the camp inmates tangible.

Tarantino XX: 8-Film Collection (Blu-ray)
Shipping Destinations for this item
Sorry, this product is currently unavailable.
A collection of eight films celebrating the first 20 years in the career of
director Quentin Tarantino.
'Reservoir Dogs' (1992), Tarantino's first film, is a shocking and sometimes funny look at the aftermath of a jewellery robbery which has gone violently wrong.
In 'True Romance' (1993), kung-fu loving Clarence (Christian Slater) meets and falls in love with hooker, Alabama (Patricia Arquette). After promptly marrying, however, Alabama's violent pimp, Drexl (Gary Oldman) stands in their way, and so Clarence takes it on himself to wipe him out.
In 'Pulp Fiction' (1994), Butch (Bruce Willis) is an over-the-hill boxer paid to take a fall, who instead does a runner with mobster Merselius (Ving Rhames)'s money. Meanwhile, Vincent Vega (John Travolta) and Jules Winfield (Samuel L. Jackson) are two hitmen who aren't having the easiest of mornings.
In 'Jackie Brown' (1997), air stewardess Jackie Brown (Pam Grier) smuggles money on the side for gunrunner Ordell Robbie (Jackson). When she is caught with $50,000 and a consignment of cocaine, she makes a deal with Ordell: if convicted, she will not shop him as long as he pays her $100,000. Meanwhile, Jackie also makes a deal with the cops, promising to help convict Ordell...
In 'Kill Bill: Vol 1' (2003), Tarantino's jaw-droppingly violent homage to action films from both East and West, Uma Thurman stars as The Bride, one-fifth of a team of assassins called DiVAS. When she decides to get married and leave the outfit her boss, Bill (David Carradine), is not a happy man and gets her former colleagues to show up at the wedding...
In 'Kill Bill: Vol 2' (2004), The Bride resumes her quest for justice, with just two remaining foes on her 'Death List', Budd (Michael Madsen) and Elle Driver (Daryl Hannah) - before she moves on to her ultimate goal - to kill Bill.
In 'Death Proof' (2007), a psychotic stuntman attempts to stalk hot babes in his supercharged, 'death proof' Chevy...
Finally, in the WWII drama 'Inglourious Basterds' (2009), a group of Jewish American soldiers known as 'The Basterds', led by First Lieutenant Aldo Raine (Brad Pitt), embark on a mission in occupied France to take down the leaders of The Third Reich. Along the way, they cross paths with Shosanna (Mélanie Laurent), a young Jewish cinema owner, out to avenge the death of her parents by the Nazis.

Discussion in 'Sports Zone' started by cowboys#1, Oct 26, 2005.
does it mean a homerun that makes everybody walk off because the game is over??
I think Dennis Eckersly really kind of made it a popular term after he gave up Kirk Gibson's home run. He basically said there was nothing to do other than walk off the field.
In baseball, a walk-off home run is a home run that ends the game. It must be a home run that gives the home team the lead in the bottom of the 9th inning or the bottom of any extra inning. It is called a "walk-off" home run because the teams walk off the field immediately afterward. Sportscasters will also use the term "walk-off double" or other such terms if such a hit drives in the winning run to end the game. Although the concept is as old as baseball, the term itself has come into use only in the last several decades.
I don't think I had ever heard the term until about 5 years ago, when it seemed like ESPN sportscasters started using it in almost every highlight, whether it was baseball, football, basketball, hockey or even Nascar.

Since the Enquirer and DDN have so many articles today, I'll just make one thread where we post Opening Day coverage in it as opposed to starting 20 different threads with only articles.
The Boss & the Boss' Boss
Baseball lifers Jerry Narron and Wayne Krivsky, who spent a good part of their careers with the Texas Rangers, had never met before Krivsky got the job as Reds general manager.
He inherited Narron as manager, but Krivsky was confident the two would mesh.
"I had a good feeling," Krivsky said. "People who knew him and knew me said we'd get along well."
They have. In Narron's and Krivsky's first year together, the club had its best season since 2000. The Reds, picked by many to finish last in the National League Central, were in the race until the second-to-last day of the season.
The GM-field manager relationship is arguably the most important in an organization. The GM puts together the team. The manager drives it.
Narron and Krivsky think alike: They emphasize pitching and defense and players who play the game the right way.
"We're both baseball guys," Narron said. "We're both grinders. We both put in a lot of time. I think there's a great deal of respect on both parts. I'm sure he doesn't agree with everything I do, and I don't agree with everything he does."
But they agree on what has to be done to end the streak of losing seasons for the franchise, which is now at six - the worst such streak since 1945-55.
"But we're definitely on the same page as far as getting this thing moving in the right direction - that is with baseball players, that is guys who play the game the right way, that is with guys who will bust their rear ends, that is about guys who want to be with the Cincinnati Reds first and foremost," Narron said. "When you take care of that, everything else will take care of itself."
To which Krivsky says: Ditto.
"We don't disagree on things very often - if at all," Krivsky said.
But they know their work is not done. Krivsky has turned over the roster heavily - obtaining 48 players in a little over a year on the job. Most of the players have been Narron's kind of players.
This year, we'll find out a lot more about whether the Narron-Krivsky philosophy works.
Since 1900, the Reds have had 15 general managers and 48 managers. We're not sure how GM Garry Herrman (1902-27) and manager Jack Hendricks (1924-29) meshed, but here's a look at successful and not-so-successful combos from the free agency era:
Bob Howsam-Sparky Anderson: Back-to-back World Series titles. Hall of Fame players. The Joe Morgan trade. Need we say more?
Bob Quinn-Lou Piniella: Quinn hired Piniella and then gave him the pieces to lead a team that finished second in the division four times under Pete Rose to the World Series title.
Jim Bowden-Davey Johnson: Bowden's hire of Johnson put the Tony Perez firing fiasco behind the club.
Dick Wagner-Sparky Anderson: Wagner fired Anderson after a 92-victory season.
Jim Bowden-Tony Perez: You don't fire a legend after 44 games.
Dan O'Brien-Dave Miley: Neither was really at fault here. They were thrust together in the last days of the Carl Lindner ownership. Their personalities were too different to work well together.

I have wide feet and high arches. This is my second pair of Skechers and I'm now a convert. Between the gym and my job, I'm on my feet a lot. Skechers are so light weight and comfortable! I love them! I do wish more styles came in wide width.
I'M on my feet for nine hours per day, I have the white and it works perfect for me in a hospital. Planning on getting another pair.
I've noticed that in general, the go walk line does not offer to many different color options. Too many of the designs only come in Black, White and sometimes Grey and/or Navy. I miss the fun colorful and patterned options! Also the new sole is not the fun sole that Sketchers has become a signature of the brand.
I've had these shoes for maybe two months now and having no pain or swelling in my foot due to previous foot injuries. i LOVE them! Thank you Sketchers!
Skechers are really the only shoe I enjoy wearing. I do have foot and leg issues and need a good fitting shoe that not only supports but is ultra comfortable. Skechers gives me that perfect shoe. Thank you but I wish you would offer MORE of your shoes in a wide fit. It is still hard to find enough variety and availability but thanks for offering some of your styles in a wide fit and PLEASE continue to do so.
I'm very happy with the one style I was able to get in my size, 9 1/2 wide, A basic black shoe. I would appreciate A prettier more attractive variety of color and style in my size.
These are some of the most comfortable shoes and they are a D'Lite to wear for sure!
I am so happy with my purchase of Sketcher D'Lites from Academy Sports Outdoors. Ordering was so easy, my order was completed in a matter of minutes. I received my order promptly and it was perfect!
It has been decades that I've found tennis shoes to for my arches. Either the arch was too firm sms quickly felt intrusive or a memory-foam type would flatten to nothing. Not so with the shoes!! First day I wrote them out shopping for nearly 5 hours & forgot my feet existed! I usually have a great deal of foot pain due to arthritis & plantar fasciitis. Nope, it was like walking on a supportive cloud. No insert needed. Plus, they are adorable!! I recommend to any age. Too cute.
I bought these to wear at concerts where I would be standing for a long time. They are so comfortable. I had no foot, leg or back pain afterwards. Memory foam insoles are fantastic. They look nice, not bulky. I am very happy with my purchase.
I normally wear a 7 and in the store i found i needed to size DOWN a full size to a 6, but once I found the right size, I absolutely love these slip on sneakers. The memory foam makes them as comfortable as your most comfortable slippers. I bought them in navy and will get another color. I love slip ons for the summer and couldn't be happier with these.
Have been wearing the white leather version of these for some time. Love them! (But they were on backorder.) I find I am really enjoying the grey color of this style, and the fabric version keeps my feet cooler. They go with everything, provide step-in ease, support and comfort for my rheumatic feet. Way to go!
I work out 5 days a week; part of the week I focus on cardio. The other part is weight lifting. These shoes work well in both scenarios. I normally wear size 8; but in past year or 2, shoe manufacturers have changed something, and now I order half size bigger. And it seems to work. I plan to purchase another pair for me and another pair for my daughter.
I only wear sketchers for everyday and play. The price was great.
My has to wear this brand of reeboks because of her flat feet. Academy sports was the only store that carried these at a great price with shipping directly to my house. This is the second pair I've bought from academy with the first pair bought in the store at Cape Girardeau, Mo. great price and fast shipping thanks!
My wife of 29 years has alays loved this style of shoes. Goes back to the old days of Aerobics, I guess. We love Academy Sports, but this is the first time we have made a purchase online from the company. Couldn't be happier! Great shoe, excellent service and now my wife can keep moving to the oldies for a little while longer!
I bought these shoes because my foot and ankle doctor said they would be good for my plantar fasciitus, and they are somewhat helpful. I wear them all the time. I just wish I could find another color.
I had been out shopping for an afternoon and could not find a pair or white athletic shoes for less than $50. I also needed a shoe that I could replace the insole with my custom insole, specifically I need a deeper toe shoe box. I saw these online that evening and they were what I was looking for. When they arrived I tried them on they fit perfectly. I've been wearing them for several weeks now and am so glad I found them. I've never bought shoes on line before and this was a good experience.
This shoe has a wide toe box so blisters from rubbing don't happen. It is more streamlined then typical walker/runner, boxy, chunky type styles. Gives the illusion of long and lean feet. Even when adding an arch support insert, the memory foam cushion fits correctly. Wonderful Walker!
I have been looking for this shoe for over a year. I first saw it at another store but not in my size. So when I was in Academy in Corpus Christi I spotted it but also they were out of my size. So I went online with Academy and ordered it and it was delivered to me a few short days later. Love the shoe. Love the service I received also.
Not quite the same feel as my walking shoes but has memory foam so that is good
I saw these shoes at the local store but they didn't have my size, sales person looked in the computer to see if my size was available online and they were I got them in 2 bus. days in time for my trip. My feet were already hurting and I was going to a trade show out of town where I did a whole lot of walking. These shoes were wonderful and felt like walking on Marshmallows. Fabulous customer service and wonderful shoes at a Great price.
The shoe is light weight. I like that quality; but it runs small.
The shoes arrived on time and in great condition thanks
I love these shoes. I use them for work and they're so comfortable. Great for walking
Great price - love the memory foam. Very comfortable.
I got these for my Granny for Christmas and she absolutely loves them. She wears them everywhere. It's difficult for her to actually find a shoe she can wear and these were great!
I bought these after seeing several people with these on and they raved about how comfortable they are. My only warning is that I wear a size 7 and I had to get a 7 1/2 because the toebox slants down. I don't have long or short toes, so if you have short toes- true to size is good;but if you have regular or long toes, I'd go up 1/2 size or more. So comfortable and stylish! I'm a nurse in the ER, so I'm on the go all day for 12-13 hours. No foot fatigue :)
I've had them a month and loving them.Go to work in them every day.
I use these for every day going to the store or running errands. These are so comfortable that you forget you have them on. They are very stretchy and have some give to them. I would buy more if they came in other colors. I bought the gray and they go with everything. Very happy with my purchase.
over all i love this product, i believe there will be more to come.
I like the look and feel of this shoe....I have a small but wide foot and shoes are not easy for me to get, so I was happy to find out Skechers had my size or could order it!
I love them. Black white and silver my favorite colors! So comfy and supportive!
1 year my shoes is comfortable and very very soft
I was having problems with buying shoes that hurt my feet after just a short time. I have tried so many shoes and my daughter-in-law told me to get skechers go step. I decided to go to Academy and try out some on. I told service girl I was having so much trouble with buying shoes so she brought me a brown pair. I tried them on and felt like I was walking on air. She only had them in brown at the time. I asked if I could return them if they started to hurt after having them so for a while. No ... problem. I loved them so much that I ordered a black pair because they were out of my size. Come summer I will be back to look for summer shoes. I will never buy any other shoes except Skechers go step or maybe try to walk next. Love them!

Scared money don't make money
What do you guys think about this gambling philosophy? Do you have to have total disregard for the money you are playing with? Is being scared of going broke on the table a disadvantage to your game? I've been pondering this question lately, would love to get some opinions from you all.
SCARED MONEY SUCKS and IM scared money, I goto my local cardroom and should be able to kill and sit down and suddenly IM question every hand I get in. Suddenly i dont want to go with hands I should try (IN CASH) and damn if these hands hit and Im folded then IM really ultra mind F'd Im trying to staighten up my game and tehre is alot of money to made at my cardroom but until I dont look like a deer in the headlights
When I think about I still cant grasp my head around how much people are willing to bet and put on the table. Its like even I read poker mags, they bring up hand analysis and say shit like and you have $850 behind (IM THINKING I WONT EVER HAVE 850 behind)
re: Poker & Scared money don't make money
aside from scared money,i believe that loose money will also not make money,that being said,do call everyhand just because its suited or connected,it will make your bank roll light real quick
Playing with scared money would typically lead one to make -ev decisions, which is why the phrase exists. It also means you are probably not playing with sound bankroll management practices in place, and would be much more prone to going bust.
How would you feel about being in a hand for your entire net worth in a coin toss situation but one in which you have a decent amount of fold equity if you shove? How would you feel about the same situation if it was for 2% of of your poker bankroll?
Both spots are a +ev shove in poker terms, but one of them could ruin your life while the other is basically inconsequential.
If you are playing poker outside of your bankroll and can still make +ev decisions, you may be able to gamble your way up the ladder with an edge but it's still gambling. This is what shot-taking basically is... and as the name implies, it's a bit of a controlled gamble even if you have sound bankroll management in place and a set stop-loss threshold.
Basically, in my experience, the best poker players are the ones that are able to dissociate the money from the game and purely focus on making the right decisions in each spot. If you are not able to push your small edges for fear of losing your stack, then you are not playing optimal poker.
Totally agree with this philosophy. I have already been in this type of situation many times, like when I'm on tilt and decide to use my bankroll in a much higher cash game level that I could afford..there are a lot of hands that I know is +ev to play, but I don't play because I get too scared to lose the money since is usually a big part of my total bankroll.
If you are playing with scared money you would be better off just giving it to a charity as the good feelings you reap as well as a tax deduction will be much more fulfilling than losing it in a card game.Dead serious about not playing above your roll or being afraid to act in a game.I say this as of all my leaks and faults none have been a more consistent loser than playing with scared money. It cripples your thinking and makes bad play seem proper . Don't do it , don't do it , don't do it.
hmmm the last three posts are really some food for thought, I really put myself in a results oriented mindset and i do worry about the money even when I dont need too. Guess next time I go play cash, im gonna just have to disassociate my plays from what it will cost me and just try to focus on the game and not on OMG $15 raise WTF LOL.

Organizations increasingly rely on analytics and advanced data visualization techniques to deliver incremental business value. However, when their efforts are hampered by data quality issues, the credibility of their entire analytics strategy comes into question.
Because analytics traditionally is seen as a presentation of a broad landscape of data points, it is often assumed that data quality issues can be ignored since they would not impact broader trends. But should bad data be ignored to allow analytics to proceed? Or should they stall to enable data quality issues to be addressed?
In this article, we use a shipping industry scenario to highlight the dependence on quality data and discuss how companies can address data quality in parallel with the deployment of their analytics platforms to deliver even greater business value.
An Analytics Use Case: Fuel Consumption in the Shipping Industry
Shipping companies are increasingly analyzing the financial and operational performance of their vessels against competitors, industry benchmarks and other vessels within their fleet. A three-month voyage, such as a round trip from the US West Coast to the Arabian Gulf, can generate a large volume of operational data, most of which is manually collected and reported by the onboard crew.
Fuel is one of the largest cost components for a shipping company. Optimum fuel consumption in relation to the speed of the vessel is a tough balancing act for most companies. The data collected daily by the fleet is essential to analyse the best-fit speed and consumption curve.
But consider an example of a speed versus fuel consumption exponential curve plotted to determine the optimum speed range at which the ships should operate. With only a few errors made by the crew in entering the data (such as an incorrect placement of a decimal point), the analysis presented is unusable for making decisions. The poor quality of data makes it impossible to determine the relationship between a change in speed and the proportional change in fuel consumption.
Most analytics programs are designed based on the belief that removing outliers is all that is needed to make sense of the data, and there are many data analysis tools available that can help with that. However, what if some of those outliers are not outliers and were the result of a scenario that needs to be considered?
For instance, in the example, what if some of the outliers were actual fuel consumption points captured when the ship encountered inclement weather? By ignoring these data points, users can make assumptions without considering important dimensions—and that could lead to very different decisions. This approach not only makes the analysis dubious, but also often leads to incorrect conclusions.
In some cases, the practice of removing outliers can lead to the deletion of a significant number of data points from the analysis. But can users get the answer they are looking for by ignoring 40 percent of the data set?
Companies need to determine the speed at which vessels are most efficient with a lot more certainty. Data quality issues only reduce the confidence in the analysis conducted. In the shipping example, a difference in speed of 1 to 2 knots can potentially result in a difference of $500,000 to $700,000 in fuel consumption for a round trip US West Coast to Arabian Gulf voyage at the current bunker price.
Does this mean that data needs to be validated 100 percent before it can be used for analytics? Does the entire universe of data need to be clean before it is useful for analytics? Absolutely not. In fact, companies should only clean the data they intend to use. The right approach can help to determine which issues should be addressed to manage data quality.
Data Used for Analytics: Where Should I Use My Cleansing Tools?
Analytics use cases have specific needs in terms of which pieces of data are critical to the analysis.

[Introductory note from Jason Pratt: the previous entry in this series of posts can be found here. The first entry can be found here.]
What is a 'generality'?
The answer to this question can be horribly complicated; but I think the basic answer (upon which all other more advanced answers must be based) is that a generality is a description: it is about something, as distinct from being something. It is like a reflection in our minds of a pattern of what has happened, or can happen, or will happen. The pattern does not exist as a particular entity; it is about entities.
[Footnote: Or, to be more specific, the pattern of 'aboutness' does not itself need to be the entity being described by the 'aboutness'. Obviously, there will be a few exceptions, such as when we think about thinking: yet the principle must still hold. Not everything I say with my tongue is 'about' my tongue, or about tongues; but I could also say something about tongues with my tongue. This would not obliterate the distinction between a description and an existent entity.]
This can be hard to understand, but try thinking of it this way: the word 'pink' is an adjective, a word that describes a property (hypothetical or actual) of the behavior of particular objects. 'Pink' is not a photon; 'pink' is not even (in the rigorous sense) a photon vibrating at a certain frequency. It is our way of describing that photon's vibratory state--its behavior or characteristic. Given such-and-such preconditions (which need not necessarily ever come to pass) any photon may be accurately described as 'pink'. 'Pink' implies that these conditions have (whether by hypothesis or in actuality) been met: that the photon has conformed to such-and-such a pattern.
Perhaps you may understand the 'abstractness' of such events if you consider that I can represent the event to you in an imaginary manner by asking you to think of a pink turtle, without a real pink turtle (per se) already existing or popping into existence. It is a placeholder; it describes what will happen given certain preconditions.
The 'laws of Nature' are a special sort of generality that describes what particles of energy or matter shall do in certain circumstances. The principles of 'double-entry accounting' are another commonly used set of generalities. [Footnote: We call these regular behaviors 'laws' as a convenient shorthand metaphor, because the particles seem to 'obey'. Such an expression does not necessarily indicate the existence of, or even a belief in, a Chief Executive.]
The practical definitions of 'general' and 'real' repel and self-attest one another. The 'general', is the pattern a given 'real' thing may correspond to. The 'real', is that which falls into (and/or creates) 'general' patterns: you could say the 'real' is that which can be described. I do not mean that everything which can be described is necessarily real, or even potentially real. I only mean, that in order to discuss 'real' entities, we must use 'abstract' descriptions: the descriptions are not the thing itself.
The descriptions do not equal what actually happens; they communicate or record what actually happens. The two categories--'happening' and 'description of happening'--are distinctive, and we recognize one by in effect denying it is the other.
Maybe I can help make this clearer by borrowing an old example from Lewis. The 'laws' of accounting do not themselves accomplish anything; they describe what will happen if you put money into the system. You can do 'accounting' until doomsday without generating a cent; in fact, if you are learning to be a professional accountant, your instructors will require you to work hypothetical accounting exercises to ensure you know what you are doing before someone entrusts 'real' money to you.
Similarly, the 'laws of aerodynamics' are abstract; you can do calculations all day and nothing especially 'aerodynamic' will happen. But they describe what real airplanes will do in given situations; and before anyone entrusts you with the real thing, they will require you to be familiar with the generalities.
This is how I find the interaction between the 'real' and the 'abstract' playing out in the world around me; and it doesn't take much effort for me to derive some principles from this.
When I turn to questions about God, and I am told by a generaleist (for whatever reason he may give) that God must be an abstract entity or a generality, then to me this is the same as saying that God does not really exist. God (under this plan) is the way something real would behave if it could be induced (or if it could induce itself) to do so. God would only be a potentiality, and not an actual. Perhaps this is true, but then let us stop talking of God really existing, and admit atheism. However, I don't think we are quite in that strait just yet.
Nature (after we have bothered to 'pick at it' for a while) seems pretty clearly to be a set of 'real' things going through 'events' according to 'generalities'; all of which we may perhaps discover. (Or, if we cannot discover a particular fact, we should be able to discover why we cannot do so and thus learn something else true and useful about the entity in question.) I think virtually any atheist today will agree with me on this; so would a pantheist of a certain sort (what I call positive pantheism). Either of these people would claim, and understand, that the thing from which everything else derives, is the most real, concrete, and (in its own way) minutely articulated thing in existence.
Actually, I think the most rigorous of either type of philosopher (positive pantheist or atheist, insofar as either of them accepts philosophical naturalism) would say that strictly speaking there is no 'thing' upon which 'everything else' is based; but that the whole reality must be considered as itself, with all evident entities equally interdependent upon every other entity. The system is what it is, and there is an end to it. But they would agree the system is real and 'concrete' (as opposed to being an 'abstraction') and if we considered the system as a whole it would, of course, have ultimate complexity.
These people would therefore be in agreement with me, that the abstract neither can nor does produce the real; at least, I think if they considered the base-bottom of their beliefs they should agree with me: the atheist (naturalistic or otherwise), the supernaturalistic theist, and a certain variety of pantheist (i.e. a certain variety of naturalistic theist) stand together on this. [Footnote: even so, it is very easy for people who agree the abstract does not produce the real, to slide by accident into proposing that abstractions are producing realities.]
But some generaleists also would agree with me (and the atheist and the positive pantheist), in principle, that the abstract cannot be the foundation or producer of the concrete. Therefore, those generaleists would conclude there can be nothing real or 'concrete'--everything, including us, must be abstract as opposed to real. [Footnote: I have in mind the basic principles of some types of 'illusionary' pantheisms, but any generaleist might try this tactic.]
This position has the neat advantage of being as unassailable as its adherent wishes: in the last resort he can always deny that his opponent really exists!
But I have a similar problem with this as I had with some earlier positions: if it was true, the adherent could not have discovered it because he himself does not really exist, either.
This is one of those places where a self-reflexive test really hits home. The extreme generaleist might reply that of course 'he' does not exist; 'he' is under an illusion that 'he' exists, and in fact 'he' should escape from this illusion.
I am certainly strongly in favor of escaping from illusion as a practical goal (including as an ethical obligation), but I think this only puts the problem back another stage: the belief of this generaleist that he must be an illusion, must itself (under this extreme position) also be an illusion. To me, this says pretty clearly that a mistake has been made somewhere!
And, to where are we supposed to be 'escaping'? Is it not also a generality, a pattern without content? Then the escape is to nowhere: meaning either annihilation or that the escape does not in fact happen.
Again, some generaleists would agree with this as well. No matter, they would say: we deserve to be annihilated! Even if I granted this, these same people will also tell me that morality is relative and all things are equally good and evil (and equally illusory); so it would be useless to say that I 'deserve' annihilation. I am quite certain, in any case, that I cannot profit by annihilation; in what sense can 'I' be said to be profiting if 'I' cease to exist? 'I' must still exist for it to be 'better for me'; but the extreme generaleist will deny this existence as well.
Some of them would say I am to be absorbed into the Absolute (and that I may call this 'God' if I wish). But the Absolute must then be actual; for if it is a phantasmal generality, then what exists for me to be absorbed into?
And the whole notion avoids the question of how it is even possible to recognize the concept of an 'illusion', without some frame of reference to compare it to an 'actual'.
In the end, the generaleist's position, no matter what philosophical flavor he takes or how far he goes, leads to massive internal contradictions; and I have already rendered my opinions about that.
No doubt, there are many intricate edifices built on this type of foundation. But if the foundation requires constant underpropping from contradictions (or 'worse', underproppings from theism--or 'worst', if the foundations are ultimately as illusory as everything else!) then I think I am safe in concluding that whatever reality is, it must not be like that.
At the very worst, short of a flat 'faith-not-reason' assertion to the contrary (let my allies note that heresy strikes again from this quarter), all appearances tell me that actual things exist. Therefore, I might as well stay with the gameplan and try to figure out particular characteristics about an actual reality, including foundational reality (or realities). A generaleist may assert that I should free myself from such an illusion; but then he proceeds to undercut any methods by which I could do so, other than by sheer denial. It seems to me that a person in sheer denial of the possibility of reality (including his own reality) is a person building (or already in) a hell; and this will be especially true if reality meanwhile keeps whacking him on the head.
And--what if reality never stops doing this?
So, I think the best plan is for me to continue with an attempt to discover particular things about basic reality: the Final Fact (or Independent Fact, or Interdependent Fact perhaps--either way you may call it an 'IF') that is the, or a, bedrock of our existence. I will either assume that particular facts are discoverable about It; or... well, there is no 'or', because (as I argued several chapters ago) everyone presumes that something distinctive can be discovered about It--or else they say nothing to the purpose and cut themselves off not only from an effective ability to convince (and help?) other people, but also from their own conscious attributes.
This leads me to the option 'b' group whom I noted several pages back: the people who would agree, "Yes, whatever the IF is (and many of us agree we can call it God), it has an infinite number of particular characteristics--but this means everything anyone can say about It must be true, so there isn't really much point for you to continue!"
This 'b' position is also linked topically to the question of infinite regression: in other words, "Hey, what is this IF thingy? Why does there have to be a 'Final' Fact? You're talking about the 'infinite', aren't you? Doesn't infinity keep on going without reaching a finality?"
These are important questions to discuss. So, on to the next chapter!

There's a ghost in my bootsMature
Renee stole Matt right out from underneath my nose.
You don't remember who Renee is? She used to be my best friend, I told you about 3 times already.
We were thick as thieves, always together, always on top of the world.
You don't remember Matt either? Come on, doc, get it together. He used to be my world; every other word that came out of my mouth was about Mattie and the cotton candy world we spun for ourselves.
We were the three musketeers for such a long time, and then you know what happened? I caught them having sex in my bed, at MY party. They had been hooking up for months. Mattie begged for me to stay. He said he loved me but went to her because I wouldn't put out and men had needs.
We were 14 years old. He wasn't a man, he was a pathetic little boy who was overly fascinated by the monster that lived in his pants. She didn't even feel bad. She shrugged it off and told me to stop being such a baby because it wasn't that big of a deal. Isn't that disgusting? It was like she flipped a switch.
That was the first night I ever touched alcohol. I drank so much that I passed out in the bushes and when I woke up I was a different person. I walked into the house covered in mud, and twigs. I walked right past my mother and she didn't even notice.
I woke up a ghost.

Roll out the barrel: The city's new recycling plan could offer a win-win-win solution
Published: April 7, 2010
Profit motive, Houston history has often shown, doesn't have to be a dirty concept. The city's new recycling experiment might be proving it again. This month, on the heels of a wildly successfully pilot effort serving 22,000 households, Houston's recycling partner RecycleBank is rolling out service to 54,000 more families.
You know you've been included if someone has left a giant green recycling barrel in your driveway and mailed you a pamphlet with a membership number. RecycleBank trucks will arrive every two weeks to cart away the contents of these barrels — and, with the help of special computer chips, reward households with points for each pound of recyclables. The points can be redeemed for purchases at local businesses or as donations to charities.
Dipping a toe into the program last year, the city found that in just a few months the pilot households produced a torrent of recycled trash. The participants, a careful mix of high, middle and low earners, some diligent and some who-cares recyclers, increased their total recycling output in three months by more than 140 percent.
In its first five months, the group sent 4.4 million fewer pounds of trash to landfills. They also spared 21,840 trees, conserved 1.5 million gallons of oil and saved taxpayers $56,784 in landfill fees. Though Houston — currently with the help of corporate and nonprofit sponsors — pays RecycleBank for its tracking and reporting service, the economic benefits have already outweighed these costs, said Marina Joseph, spokesperson for the Solid Waste Department. (Houston will pay RecycleBank $58,228 for fiscal year 2010).
Not bad for a metropolis branded the worst recycler in the country.
Houstonians, it seems, require tangible, individual incentives to recycle. Once those incentives are there, though, we're apparently willing to change our behavior almost overnight. RecycleBank's main lure is the $400 or so in purchasing points that it awards average recyclers each year for their good habits. It also helps that the program's big green carts are easy to maneuver — and that you can toss in recyclables without having to sort them.
But RecycleBank also offers an appealing leeway for personal choice. True, each household's profit is determined by the neighborhood's overall trash haul — the idea, RecycleBank officials say, is that small families and single folk aren't penalized for their relatively meager consumption habits. But members of each household decide for themselves how to spend the points in their account. Groceries. Medicine. Dinner out or sports gear.
You can even transfer the points to a cash donation for a local school or a charity. And it's surprising how often participants nationwide choose that option, say RecycleBank officials. In other cities, like Wilmington, Del., low-income residents are among the most likely to donate RecycleBank earnings.
Will Houstonians follow suit? Generosity, after all, often is the flip side of this city's distinct, for-profit character. RecycleBank, a for-profit, certainly wants to find out: Its goal is to install a green barrel in every eligible household citywide. As long as people keep recycling and Houston can fund it, the city backs that goal, Joseph said. Houstonians should watch the program closely, too.
If RecycleBank's early success really does have legs, Houston's decision to partner with this startup could be a triple win: for its budget, its environment and its pragmatic, bighearted population.

Ripoff Report
Kingsisle2745 Dallas Pkwy, Plano, TX 75093 Plano, Texas USA
Kingsisle Rip Off, Scam Plano Texas
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
Kingisle has been taking money from people for so long. A 10 dollar one-month membership or 5000 crowns card is ridiculous. A 40 dollar card which comes with a house,pet,outfit,wand and one-month or 5000 crowns is even more ridiculous. Kingsisle is targeting children for money, they dont care about the entertainment or people's opinions of the game, they just want the money. I feel bad for the people who actually buy these cards becuase I also made the mistake. Kingisle should lower their prices on EVERYTHING. It is taking so much money away and I am so mad that they are doing this. I think it should be 5 dollars for one month or 5000 crowns and 18 dollars instead of the 40 dollar bundle. Kingsisle is a horrible business and you are encouraging them if you buy one of their products. Please listen to me and dont buy from Kingisle. -Benjamin HighlandVillage TX

J Sheekey
We have been to Sheekey's a number of times after the theatre and it has always been the perfect cap to a lovely evening out. The seafood is fresh and tasty and they do have a variety to choose from instead of the 2 or 3 grilled fish like a lot of seafood places.
The atmosphere is always lively which is just a continuation of the enjoyment of the theatre and the staff are very gracious especially on the telephone when making reservations.

Sand Dunes(A Naruto FanFiction)
My Story So Far
Ever since I was a little girl. I'd dream of becoming a Sand Ninja, it was a little fantasy of mine. My friends and I would 'play ninja' and make shurikens and kunai's from wet sand or paper. All the adults found it 'cute' or 'funny'.
They didn't know all the true effort we put into fighting eachother with toys.
A few years later, I announced to my parents that I wished to enter the Sunagakure ninja school. They just told me they'd think about it. But I was determined to get them to allow me to become a Academy Student.
After a few weeks they told me I could go to the Academy! I was so happy that I told all my friends, and much to my dismay, NONE of them were allowed to enter the school . . .
So I had to enter all alone. With no friends so laugh and play and work with. All I could do was study.
Two years later , I, Chouki Yamakto was top of the class and preparing to transfer to the Hidden Leaf Village. And there, I would stay with the Nara family.
While I was with the Nara's, I graduated from the Leaf Ninja Academy. All the other Academy students shunned me for being so smart. But I was glad I had become a Genin. There were people of my skill level, I could compare jutsu's, ect.
Also, the son of the Nara family, Shikamaru, taught me a special, secret ninja art: the Shadow Bind. When I mixed this with my powerful Sand Ninjutsu's, I was able to create my own personalised jutsu's.
It was one and a half years before I returned to Sunagakure.
There were so many changes in the life style. But the one biggest change, was that our Kazekage was Gaara.

Zerohedge writes:
The fact is, the overwhelming majority of the 95% we mention above is comprised of middle-class consumers who are bearing the brunt of the burden of rising health insurance costs. In fact, a June Brookings Institution study found that middle-income households now devote the largest share of their spending to health care ever, 8.9%, a rise of more than three percentage points from 1984 to 2014. Per the Wall Street Journal, since 2007 middle-class families have been forced to increase the share of their overall spending on healthcare by nearly 25% while cutting back massively on other necessities to cover the difference.
So here in one simple chart is why President Obama's Affordable Care Tax is crushing the middle-class more than any other social strata...
So, for those wondering why the "recovery" from the "great recession" has been so muted perhaps you need to look no further than the massive healthcare tax imposed on the middle class by Obamacare.

Hanoi, Nov 9: A typhoon heading for Vietnam has weakened before reaching the central coast but was still expected to spew heavy rain today onto a region where floods have killed nearly 200 people over the last few weeks.
The government said it was still urging fishermen back to shelter despite typhoon Peipah, 400 km off Vietnam, weakening into a tropical depression.
Rescue and sea patrols have been deployed off 19 coastal provinces from Quang Binh to Ca Mau, urging fishermen to take shelter, the government said in a report.
Storms and floods have killed nearly 200 people in central provinces since early October, and caused damage of $300 million.
They have delayed the coffee harvest in the Central Highlands coffee belt, squeezing supplies to global markets.
More rain will also disrupt the harvest, which has just started after rain kept growers indoors in the last week of October, the usual start of the harvest.
Rain could also disrupt outdoor drying, delaying the delivery of robusta beans to Saigon Port for loading. It takes about 10 days to pick, dry and bag coffee cherries before delivery to the port in Ho Chi Minh City.
Agriculture and health officials also said receding floods could help spread bird flu now hitting ducks in Quang Tri province and make more people sick with the acute diarrhoea which has infected more than 1,200 people in the country.
The government was sending 5,500 tonnes of rice to feed flood victims in five central provinces as floods and rain have washed away their food stocks.

An appealing girls magazine, ideal for middle school girls. Girls' Life offers a little bit of everything: general advice; health and safety information; beauty information, and more. Some content (such as a feature on sexually transmitted diseases) is more appropriate for older tweens or teens than for the younger crowd.

Pros

Reaches out to a variety of tween girls, from tom boys to boy crazies

Timely, relevent articles

Advertising is age appropriate

Slick, modern design

Cons

Some content is best for older tweens

Can be a bit too focused on celebrities and fashion

Description

Feature stories include celebrity profiles, health and fitness articles, and timely topics such as bullying, and self-esteem.

Departments and columns offer advice on hair, hygiene, friendships, fashion, boys, makeup, and horoscopes.

Typical advertisements include those for movies or DVDs, makeup, hygiene products, sneakers, books, and computer games.

Review

A girls magazine aimed at the tween age bracket, Girls' Life magazine is an appealing choice for girls wanting a little bit of everything.

Girls' Life magazine focuses its content on girls in the middle school grades. While the magazine may be a bit mature for younger tweens, it does a very good job of delivering pertinent information to older tweens wanting to know more about fashion, relationships, problem-solving, boys, dating, school, and much more.

While the magazine concentrates a little too much on beauty and celebrity, it is also feature-heavy, meaning it delivers a lot of information in meaningful articles. Topics include heavy-hitting topics such as bullying, eating healthy, believing in yourself, etc. The departments are loaded with advice on makeup and beauty, celebrity spotlights, and questions and answers.

Girls' Life is published six times a year.

Food quality
Room quality
Stayed again at the PR, for its central location, and character.
It is becoming tired and shabby. Room 212 was cramped, dingy and tired, ceiling paper hanging off, high-cill window looking to the sky, and a large flat felt roof...........disappointed in the room !

A lovely memorable experience
We chose the Prince Rupert as a base from which to travel into Wales and to discover sites on the journey to and from Shrewsbury.
The staff could not have been more helpful and we thoroughly enjoyed travelling back in time, but with all the mod cons expected from a city centre hotel.

Excellent staff
Very interesting, quirky building, which we much prefer to 'chain' hotels.
Great location in a cobbled street - very central. We were met with a welcoming glass of sherry and were welcomed warmly and courteously. Becki was very helpful before we travelled and we were kindly given an upgrade to a suite, as it was our wedding anniversary. Staff showed us personally to our room and carried my luggage. We ate out that evening, so cannot comment on the meals in the restaurants, but breakfast was excellent, with plenty of choice.

Great weekend away
Hotel has lots of character, we stayed in the prince rupert suite with a lovely 4 poster bed and a free standing bath, room was lovely very large also large bathroom, and a complimentary box of chocolates which was a nice touch, breakfast very nice with a complimentary glass of champagne..
Room service was only sandwiches no hot food which was a shame,, also found out its a haunted hotel and the room we stayed in was shown on a tv show for ghost activity which was scary.. Robes and toiletries was included . 5 pound car valet service added to bill as there isn't a car park to the hotel.. Staff friendly

Fantastic character hotel
The Prince Rupert is perfectly situated in the heart of the old town.
We were upgraded to a suite in the old 12c part of the hotel which was great. Service was excellent, breakfast was top quality and the overall stay could not have been better.

Short stay
The short stay at the hotel was excellent, we will most certainly stay here again.
Everyone was very pleasant and helpful and the hotel was fantastic. We will tell our friends to stay there.
Read More Less
Could not have been more central and convenient to all amenaties in the town center.
The sat nav did not take us to the enterance but near enough.
The valet parking was no problem and we were able to leave the bikes on the car roof. We were given lovely sherry on arrival and the reception service was excellent. The hotel was full of character and creaky floorboards. The room was small but adiquate for our needs and the bathroom was a good size and modern but the shower could have been more powerful. We had the window open all night as it was mild and the night revelers could be heard and the morning street cleaning but this is expected in a city center. However the bed was very confortable and we had a good night's sleep. Breakfast was very good with plenty of it. The only complaint we had was when we got back from our morning outing,about 2 o clock in the afternoon our room had not been serviced.

Good friendly staff.
Fantastic accommodation, the room we have was very good indeed. The breakfast was very good, a great choice of fruit, and the cooked breakfast was also very good.
Read More Less
wonderful atmosphere, room adequate, but needed a deep clean, visibly very dusty. But lovely staff
We really enjoyed the atmosphere, even had drinks on arrival and departure.
But although the room was pleasant, the furred up dust on curtains, head board, vent, in fact every where in our room took away the value for money. however the breakfast and staff made up for this. We would stay again, but would have to say to staff if room was as dusty next time. The manager is very approachable, and staff are helpful but not over powering.
Read More Less
Conservative and inflexible
If you want access to your car, you need permission.
Drinks highly overpriced, customer service strict and unfriendly. Strange atmosphere in the place. Confusing corridors to rooms.
