@kenjiharima: What ep are those vidcaps (from your sig) from? I don't watch the anime much.. ^_^;;
Also, I don't see why the SR anime team would stop producing eps. Unless its popularity has gone stagnant in Japan?
In any case, us fans still have the manga to turn to~

I'm onigiri again...curse my changing self on whatever the development for harima's love interest is (cept for tenma/harima, eewww).
Great ep in any case, one of my fav chaps put on the screen. The entire manga part is just hilarious, though yakumo could've used a bit more blushing
On a different note, why did the pocky have to break! WHYYYYY!

I'm aware that your sig image was taken from the Ni Gakki PS2 game. There are events in there designed to please fans of every faction.
I'll be bringing around a sig of my own, in a few weeks time.

^ I guess I didn't consider that. Hahaha. My ex-onigirist side is coming out again -_-. Thank you for waking me up! :P
In any case, I have a question that I want to ask. I have the answer in mind but I'm not sure if that is applicable:

@ ZhangKhaiEn My sig is taken from the new PS2 game.
Onigiri can be big if Yakumo can have a bit of a backbone to tell her fellings. Harima is the first guy to ever move her heart and she was the one who is approaching her in the first season(tea club camping trip), but big dumb sister used ONNE-CHAN POWER, maybe that's why Yakumo is still a little hesitant to go all out or maybe she does'nt want to hurt anyone's feelings. Tenma and Eri specially.
For now KJ is pushing Flag/Jersey faction on the manga, but for anime viewers it's Onigiri for now.

The lines in La Sorelle have a specific context, as well. Yakumo introduces the topic with a lead in question, and then follows up on it afterwords.

Remember the time Yakumo said on the camping trip "Too bad , it seems he does'nt remember me.", then Harima said "BTW thanks for the Rice Balls yesterday.". Then Yakumo has some white lights behind her. Must be cupid...nahh
either way this is an onigiri episode hope to see more in the future. But I rather have KIDS MEAL!! ^__^

Best. Character. Ever.
10 on this ep just for that. The rest was good too though, 8 at least. Go go Naru-chan and Eri-chan! Eri had enough time in this ep, as long as I get to hear Yui's voice some. A real treat of an ep for Onigiri fans. Plus Karasuma and Hanai finally showed up, and the minimal characters were treated as they should be--not absent but good in small doses. Even Lala was kind of funny when she couldn't keep up with the Jap word game. I did like the Buddha character's cosplay and harem scenes.
Still Harima should've taken that little gift, why refuse? And what was the deal with Tenma and Karasuma, it wasn't resolved? Also how many botched confessions has Harima had by now, 10? They keep coming up with ways to throw them off, but at least Harima got some credit for this one.

Ok I have somewhat serious continuity question.
In the birthday party scene when Yakumon is trying to give Harima his birthday present, Eri retorts something along the lines of "just being here is a present" or something like that. Now, this is in direct reference to Harima's feelings for Tenma.
When exactly did Eri become aware that Harima has a crush on Tenma? Because that is certainly what it seems like, plus her actions at paying for Tenma's birthday dinner in episode 12 really seems like she knows. For instance as they are walking away from the evening they show a close up of Eri's face and she calls Harima a "bakka" and sort of pouts and looks downcast (made me feel kinda bad for her actually).
I'm just wondering when it was exactly that she figured this out. Now, it's not that I'm surprised about it, it's just that I don't remember when it occured.
In any regards I think it (and episode 12 in particular) shows how much Eri cares for Harima even if she doesn't have the guts to say so yet (although it looks like the manga is starting to get there actually... scary thought). It's very similar to how Harima gives Tenma his flowers and pretends they are from Karasuma. I thought it was a nice change of pace for Harima, finally he is actually thinking about Tenma's feelings, even if he doesn't like them. Basically it shows that the two characters are actually thinking about the people they like (love?) Eri is thinking about Harima enough to figure out he likes Tenma and Harima is thinking about Tenma enough to admit her feelings are (currently anyway, suppose i should leave that open) are not for him.
Anyway I just have to say that I totally <3 Eri. She was the one character that I did not expect to grow on me because generally I find Tsundere characters really annoying (I could never get into Love Hina because of this)... however Eri's "deredere" side is just way too cute. I think the fact that she's not completely over the top like Naru Narusegawa from Love Hina makes the character work a lot better. It's like you don't feel that when she is in "tsuntsun" mode that this is actually her default behavior, but rather she is just trying to cope with something
All in all a pretty solid episode. Can't wait for the rest of the season
Heh after reading what I wrote I realized I made a comparison between Eri and Naru about how much I dislike Naru Narusegawa in Love Hina... and neglected to mention that I have always found it funny because they are both voiced by the same seiyu A little trivia for some people I guess ^_^

Eri and Naru are similar. They both beat up the main male character and they are both in love with them. Namely Kietaro x Naru and Harima x Eri. But instead of punches to the face, Harima gets kicks and shining wizards. Ouch what a knee attack!! XD

Similarily, the "Tsundere" classification is given undue significance. Every girl is either warm and approachable or aloof and unapproachable. If she's unapproachable and falls for a guy, she becomes warmer and more friendly - and you have a tsundere on your hands. Tsundere covers just as broad a spectrum of girls as non-Tsundere. For that matter, you could even make a case for Yakumo as a tsundere.
Instead of sticking to labels, it's much more effective to evaluate characters based on their individual stories - especially in an unpredictable series like SR. You just might find that the characters are a lot different than they originally seemed - Eri especially.

dam its a great ep...and i find out that tenma is really evil -.-
lots of harima x yakumo which i love to bits and the flames of love has be lit in yakumo (from my opinion) but even though harima's intention was completely innocent his request for her to fall on top of him seems a bit too much but nevertherless yakumo still did it...and the heart beating gives a really good tip that yakumo is getting excited
also it was yakumo who gave harima a present (wht is the meaning hidden there?)
funny bits was when akira was told to crack a smile and when she wanted to wear the fish suit XD
and next week...more harima x yakumo time...i mush be in heaven lol

He became the first true freshman offensive lineman to see action for Stanford since 2000, but was lost for the season due to injury. Yankey returned and started all but one game the past three seasons (40 starts), seeing time at both left guard and left tackle, earning numerous awards and accolades including becoming the eighth unanimous All-American in school history.
Yankey replaced Jonathan Martin at left tackle in 2012 - allowing just one sack - before kicking back inside as a junior, and projects best as a guard in the NFL, where scouts feel his lateral agility, balance and toughness are best suited. He was a unanimous All-American and named First Team All-Pac-12 by the league's coaches in 2013.
As a unit, the Stanford offensive line committed just three holding penalties during the 2013 season and Yankey helped pave the way for running back Tyler Gaffney to rush for 1,709 yards.
Yankey was particularly impressive during Stanford's victory over Oregon, putting his own athleticism on display in the run game against the Ducks' fast and talented defense.
"The decision was not easy," Yankey said in announcing he would enter the 2014 NFL Draft. "I have loved my time at Stanford and am a proud member of Nerd Nation. I am humbled at the prospect of joining a long list of Stanford alumni currently playing in the NFL."
He has terrific feet, mobility and overall movement skills with the natural power and understanding to make it look easy - sometimes makes it look too easy and needs to compete with more controlled urgency and grit on every snap.
Yankey still has some technical issues to iron out, but has the physical traits to develop into a plus starting blocker in the NFL.
Sets up quickly and gets into position with good base width. Not easily redirected with good core strength and strong hands. Very good initial surge as a lead blocker through the hole. Highly intelligent with above average instincts and awareness.
Hard worker in the weight room - has added 75 pounds to his frame since his junior year in high school. Strong resume as a two-year All-American and three-year starter with 40 career starts (26 left guard, 14 left tackle).
WEAKNESSES: Will allow his pads to rise too much after first contact and needs to improve his knee bend. Bad habit of lowering his head at contact and needs to keep his eyes elevated through contact.
Needs to better control his momentum on the move to break down and gain proper positioning. Room to improve his hand placement, struggling to properly latch-and-drive. Will stop his feet at contact and needs to better sustain.
Needs to add more thunder to his initial punch. Would like to see more finishing toughness and consistent urgency through the whistle.
COMPARES TO: Ben Grubbs, OG, New Orleans Saints - Yankey and Grubbs are comparable due to their natural abilities to open up holes in the run game and make it look easy with athleticism and strength.

Somebunny's Bunny
Poem by: Hamp
Status: Finished
Genre: Humor
Can a bunny lay an egg?
Wait til Easter,
My nephew begged.
"For during that time, you must agree.
The bunny hops by,
And leaves them for me."
Ole Red's poor sister, so loved to bake.
But not from the reefer,
The eggs, she would take.
No matter the month, to the yard she would go.
She'd find the eggs there,
Row after row after row.
But during the months, from March til June,
She only had to search,
Her living room.
Many a day, an innocent face,
Lied so boldly,
Never leaving a trace.
Hands at his back, "I have no eggs."
Just believe me,
His sad eyes begged.
Ah, dear Bridgett, you've yet to be paid.
No long eared grandkids,
From eggs that were laid.

Hamp, I have no idea how to contact you, so I'm using a comment to do so. In english I had to analyse a poem I liked and I did your "Just An Old Man" for my piece. After analyising it, I then had to write my own in the same sort of style. I have published the poem "Another Lesson Learned" on this site and hope you don't mind. Just drop me a comment if you would like to remove it. Loved this poem too, by the way.
Awesome Stuff. I love the way you write - i need to add you to my favourites list.
this is a cute little piece. keep up the good work. ^_^

About our guides:
We make great, interactive travel guides.
To make our guides we use the content that is freely available. Open content sites like Wikitravel, Wikipedia, World66 and Openstreetmap are among the best resources for any traveler. Our mission is to make that content relevant for you. So we mix and mash and annotate - and we distill great, relevant travel guides out of it.
We like open content. In fact some of us were involved in World66, one of the first open content travel guides on the web. Our travel guides are very much a re-mix of open content out there.
Currently we're using content from: Wikipedia, Wikitravel, World66, Open Streetmaps, DMOZ and Chefmoz
We're big fans of these projects. If you stumble across some inaccurate information in this guide, we would appreciate it if you correct it on the web site of these projects.
What's New in Version 6.0.1
Bug fixes.
We've got a new look! We've got bigger pictures, brighter colors and cooler icons. The whole redesign is focused on making it easier to discover what's great about a destination. We hope you'll enjoy it just as much as we do!
You'll notice the new design immediately, but we also added a bunch of new features you'll love:
- New and improved trip planning! Plan and manage your trip directly from the home screen. Add dates and save all the places you want to visit in one place.
- Catch a ride! If Uber is available where you are, we can help you get a ride. You will see an Uber icon below each place of interest that lets you know how long it will take to get an Uber. Tapping the button opens the Uber app with the starting point and destination already selected.
- Find out where to hang out! Discover the cool areas more easily by searching exactly where you want to go. Instead of searching by city alone, we added a feature that allows you to search for smaller districts, neighborhoods and even regions on an island. Now you will get a complete and more accurate list of things to do in that area.
- And as always, we've updated our guides with new places and small tweaks to improve your experience.

With general elections are just around the corner, and election schedule too in place, politics in Andhra Pradesh is undergoing never-seen-before changes. Two new political 'forces' are going to born- one is being floated by former CM Kiran Kumar Reddy, the other is brainchild of actor Pawan Kalyan. Both are going to come into existence on same day- March 12.
Kiran is going to announce his political party on March 12th evening at a public meeting in Rajahmundry. And though Pawan is going to make appearance in front of media on March 9, he is going to make full-fledged announcement on March 12 itself. Pawan Kalyan has already booked Hitex ground in Hyderabad on same day (March 12) to reveal his political force. Pawan's office has sent word to his fan organizations, former PRP workers to attend this event. Pawan's team is doing massive arrangements. Two prominent personalities of State are launching their political outfits at same time. This has never happened in State. On this peculiar context, we try to gauge the merits and demerits of these two teams, various factors that affect the outcome and who will score more. Naturally there are several apprehensions as well as advantages dangling in front of these two forces. Let's see.
While Pawan Kalyan's agenda is to bring "change in political system", Kiran Kumar Reddy's slogan is "to safeguard the respect and pride of Telugus". Interestingly both these are existing agendas of two political parties in state. Pawan's agenda is so close to Lok Satta Party's ideology of cleaning politics whereas Kiran's point has been boasted by Telugu Desam Party on various events. In fact, TDP was built on "Telugu Vaari Aatma Guaravam" (Self-respect of Telugus) concept. On this front, these two forces may not click and grab attention of people.
Veering towards support to these forces, no doubt Pawan has humongous fan base. Yet they're divided on Pawan's political reentry. And many of Pawan's fans have had their loyalty to other political parties. And Chirus fans are unhappy over the turn of events. Kiran Reddy too have fans aftermath his open revolt against high command. Especially, NGOs, majority of government employees, students and youth are in favour of Kiran. Kiran is well-educated and seen as new generation political leader. At the same time, Kiran does have his demerits.
Caste is one major issue in Indian politics which play significant role. Sad, but true. While a section of Reddys, who are unwilling to support Jagan Reddy, have got an alternative in form of Kiran Reddy. And Kapus, majority section in AP, are likely to sail with Pawan given that his charisma. Even Pawan too is heavily banking on this factor.
Another important aspect is that Kiran Reddy has vast political experience whereas Pawan is almost novice. Kiran knows ground realities, poll booth politics, how it works. Many senior Congress leaders like Undavalli Arun Kumar, Sabbam Hari, Rayapati Samba Siva Rao, Harsha Kumar, Sailajanath and many others were behind him. Pawan might head Yuvarajyam but this is completely different from handling party or a team of people and oversee elections. This pose a big challenge to Pawan and his team. Coming to his team, it's still unclear who is going to travel with Pawan. If reports to be believed, few former PRP MLAs, leaders might join Pawan which hardly has any affect.
On whole, going gets tough for both Pawan and Kiran as both are running against time. Given that TDP has strong cadre and YSRCP too have its base, Kiran and Pawan may can't be game changers but may end up as third and fourth. Let's see who will emerge as winner.

Duke University Research Affirms District's Academic Achievement Goals
The Johnson Creek School District has been focusing on ability-based learning for the past several years. Instead of grouping students solely by grade level, students are grouped by what we refer to as their "readiness" level. This allows students to access at their own rate, and not be held to average ability of the students in their grade level. Recently, Duke University published a study highlighting the benefits of this type of learning. This study is affirmation that the district has been very progressive in student learning and academic achievement; something we will always continue to do. You can read Duke's article here.

Bay Meadows Race Course, whose final spring meeting ends next month, is hosting a reunion of retired jockeys and other racing personnel during its April 26 racing program, which is headlined by the $125,000 Bay Meadows Breeders' Cup Handicap.
Former rider Danny Winick, who competed in Northern California from 1973-86, said he expects 55 past jockeys and other former track officials, with some of their families, to attend. He said the jockeys are sponsoring the fourth race on the program and a segment will also be introduced to the crowd after each event on the card.
Winick, who now lives in Arcadia, said that Bay Meadows' pending closure -- its owners are not expected to seek additional racing dates after this summer's San Mateo County Fair closes in August -- wasn't really the impetus for holding the reunion. May 11 is closing day of the spring meet.
"It was just something that needed to be done," Winick said of the jockey assembly. "A lot of us are getting older. We won't have another chance.
"They really don't care," he said of the pending track closure. "They've moved on, to different places all over the country; new jobs or careers and families. It is sad if it does close. But I've been hearing Bay Meadows is going to close for 20 years."
Fans will have an opportunity to get autographs from their old favorites and take photographs as well. The jockeys will be treated to a day in the Turf Club by the track.
Among the many former riders expected to attend are Tom Chapman, now a well-known equine racing artist, A.L. Diaz, Larry Gilligan, Bill Mahorney, Rudy Rosales, Art Sherman and Ray York. Others attending are popular retired racing officials Fred Alexander and Gene Pederson as well as Gene O'Conner, the former jocks' room masseuse.

Upper Exposure Limit (UEL)
Definition - What does Upper Exposure Limit (UEL) mean?
An upper exposure limit (UEL) is the maximum concentration of a chemical, radiation or sound to which workers may be exposed continuously for a short period of time, usually 15 minutes, without any danger to health, organ damage, injury or work efficiency.
Safeopedia explains Upper Exposure Limit (UEL)
UELs are referred to in occupational safety and health, industrial hygiene and toxicology. These are established concentrations, which will not cause harm to the exposed workers if not exceeded. UELs are developed and periodically revised by concerned organizations and, therefore, vary widely. These limits are generally flexible and every country defines its own limits based on industrial experience and experiments. Some workers may experience discomfort even below the established limits or be affected more seriously due to a pre-existing condition. UELs are intended for use as guidelines and are not fine lines between safe and unsafe exposures.

I'm 9 months after BA and my nipples always look hard, why?
I have a breast augmentation 9 months ago with 250cc HP round Mentor implants and since the day after BA my nipples always looked hard! They don't disturb me as I don't feel anything, but I have to always wear padded bras to cover them :( Is there any problems? At my monthly check-ups my surgeon told me that everything it's fine.
Doctor Answers 1
Projection, projection, projection....
Your breast implants are pushing your breast and nipple tissue forward and this has increased the projection (how far they stick out). Some people find projecting nipples to be attractive, but others are sensitive to a higher level of projection. There's a small round silicone cover that is very helpful to cover them and does a better job than a bra. Best, Dr. ALDO

Keep your theme running from the inside through to the outside – for instance, if you have an Art Deco internal then try to incorporate Artwork Deco statues, tiles or even lamps outside rather than this being a generic garden. Likewise, if it is a traditional Pub with a lot of Bric-a-Brac then carry outside Bric-a-Brac through.

Tulin – the town itself is relatively modern but just outdoors you will find fields of Elderberry trees. The Elderberry fruit juice makes for a mild, however, enjoyable drink.
For any perfect installation, you have to look at your brackets; you should measure a lot more than twice before you drill, plus make sure that you have closed all of your bracket covers. Besides, it is best to mark the place from the holes with a marker before you decide to drill any to avoid any mistake.

|The following is based on Fallout 3 cut content and has not been confirmed by canon sources.
Richard Dunwich was the owner of Dunwich Borers LLC.
Richard Dunwich is the brother of Constance Blackhall and the ancestor of Obadiah Blackhall. He was the owner of Dunwich Borers LLC, the company that built the Dunwich Building.
|The following is based on Fallout 3 cut content and has not been confirmed by canon sources.
According to dialogue taken from the original, cut version of the Point Lookout quest The Dark Heart of Blackhall, Dunwich had an "obsession with the occult". This obsession was shared with his sister, Constance Blackhall. The two's shared "obsession with the occult" would hint that the presence of the obelisk underneath the building was not unintentional.
|End of information based on Fallout 3 cut content.
Richard Dunwich was to be mentioned in the Fallout 3 add-on Point Lookout, but was cut from the game.

Hi all.
I've just bought a Linx Vision and loving it. Really like the back Linx wallpaper and want to set this for the login screen too. However in settings its only listed under wallpaper, and I have no idea where it's located so I can set it as the login background. It's the black wallpaper, much like the background of their website.

Avoid exclusion: not include an IT artifact
Avoid inclusion: research that is best left to other disciplines because IT artifact is not key
Crucial test: if other disciplines have provided theories that account for the phenomena we have identified, we will have done little to contribute to the core of IS
Find phenomena where theory is nonexistent or defficient
Lee 1998 Aucnet Case, Electronic marketplaces may not reduce prices due to (1) increase quality (new cars), (2) increase sellers' market power (separation of car transportation cost from auction process, no pressure to sell), and (3) increased buyer externality (more buyers, less search costs, benefit for sellers too)., It is a Win-Win for buyers and sellers because of market efficiency
Kambil & van Heck 1998 Framework for exchange organizations based on process-stakeholder analysis (based on Dutch auctions), Basic Trade Process 1. Search – the information gathering and evaluation process undertaken by buyers and sellers to identify opportunities 2. Valuation – price discovery and negotiation 3. Logistics – delivery of actual goods 4. Payment & Settlement – terms and methods of payment 5. Authentication – verify the quality and features of the product offered, the authenticity of the trading parties, and monitor conformance to the contract or agreement, Context Processes 6. Communications and computing – infrastructure 7. Product representation – how the product attributes are specified to the buyer and other 3rd parties 8. Legitimation – validate the trade or exchange agreement 9. Influence structures and processes – ratings, systems that enforce obligations or penalties to reduce opportunism risks. 10. Dispute resolution – processes for resolving disputes among parties and structures with decision rights in the event of conflict, Propositions 1. Separation of physical & information increases efficiency 2. Information asymmetry is overcome by price discounts or more info available 3. If any stakeholder is worse off, system will fail
Brynjolfsson, Hu & Smith 2003 Product variety & consumer surplus, Is is true that increased competition increases consumer surplus (through lower prices), Increased product variety has greater positive impact on consumer surplus
Ghose, Smith & Telang 2006 Product Cannibalization, Availability of used products doesn't really cannibalize sales of new products, but rather increase market size, Used-book marketplace increases consumer surplus and total social welfare, Globally networked IS reduces search costs (Bakos 1997) and enables IT-mediated exchanges (Malone et al 1987)
Malone, Yates & Benjamin 1987 Electronic Markets vs. Hierarchies, Factors that favor hierarchies: 1. Coordination costs 2. Asset specificity 3. Complexity of product description, By reducing coordination costs, IT will lead to overall shift to market over hierarchies, The market/hierarchy trade-off is centered in coordination/production costs, IT will decrease the relative weight of coordination costs vs. production costs
Bakos 1997 Reducing Buyer Search Costs, Electronic market place provides information about existence of sellers, their prices and products, Reduced price hypothesis: lower search costs lead to lower prices, Net welfare (market efficiency) is increased, Benefits to buyers, 1. Lower prices due to competition among sellers 2. Allocational efficiencies from better purchase-preference fit 3. Lower search costs (despite greater number of inquiries) 4. Consumers' who wouldn't buy now do, thanks to lower search costs, Sellers' strategies, 1. Provide more product information (rather than price information) to convince users to purchase 2. Make products hard to compare vis-a-vis 3. Pursue product differentiation
Chellapa, Sin & Siddarth (WP) Price Dispersion (in airline ticket prices), Vendor's price format remains an important source of price dispersion in both online and offline channels even after accounting for market factors and ticket characteristics
Koppius, van Heck & Wolter 2004 (flowers) Defficiencies in product represetation lead to price discounts, Alternate explanation to price reduction in online markets
Overby & Jap 2009 Electronic vs. Offline Channels (cars), Low quality uncertainty & rare --> electronic High quality uncertainty & plentiful --> physical Electronic channels led to discounts for products of high quality uncertainty, but not for those of low quality uncertainty, Alternate explanation to price reduction in online markets
Akerlof 1970 Market for Lemons, Low-quality goods can drive out high-quality goods in the presence of information asymmetry, leading to a market for "lemons", Information Asymetry (def): The seller knows more about the product than the buyer, Buyers expect to pay for "average quality", and sellers have incentive to offer "below average quality" to increase profits
Jin & Kato 2007 Dividing Online & Online (baseball cards), Empirical evidence on how buyers and sellers adapt to deal with the trade-off between search cost savings and information quality, Adverse selection may be reduced via:, 1. Search or experience, 2. Intermediaries, Market segmentation, High or low product quality (low quality uncertainty) is traded online, Medium product quality (high quality uncertainty) is traded offline
Dewan & Hsu 2004 Adverse Selection (Online stamp auctions), Quality uncertainty induces adverse selection costs => sellers must offer adverse selection discount to compensate for uncertainty, Learn this by comparing online stamps market with intermediary services vs. eBay, Reputation mechanisms have positive (significant but modest) effect on price and probability of transaction taking place
Kazumori & McMillan 2005 Model sellers choice of Online vs. Live auctioning, Tradeoff: lower transaction costs online vs. more rent left to bidders online (due to winner's course, buyers bid lower), Determinant of decision is not expected price, but dispersion of valuation, Dispersion can be reduced if buyers see item for themselves, A high-value item can be successfully sold online if the bidder's estimates of that value are tightly bunched (low variance)
Dellarocas 2006 Reputation Mechanisms, Objective of reputation mechanisms: Enable efficient transactions in communities where cooperation is compromised by post-contractual opportunism (moral hazard) and information asymmetries (adverse selection), Reputation Mechanisms play sanctioning (i.e. eBay) and signaling (i.e. AMZ) role
Dellarocas & Wood 2008 Reporting Bias (silence), Reporting Bias: traders may selectively choose to report certain types of outcomes and not other (i.e. mostly positive), Bias can be corrected for by considering transactions in which either party decided to remain silent
Pinker, Seidmann & Vakrat 2003 Managing Online Auctions, Research Avenues: 1. Behavior of online auction participants 2. Optimal design of online auctions 3. Integration of auctions for firms' operation 4. Analysis of auction data, Impact of IT on auctions 1. Reduce search costs (Bakos 1997) 2. More participants (buyers & sellers) 3. Ability to perform complex processes 4. Easy data collection 5. Asynchronous participation
Theories have (1) constructs, (2) propositions and relationships, and (3) relationships must be falsifiable
Types of theory: analysis, explanation, prediction, explanation-prediction (EP), design and action
The technology structure and the structure of social action both describe how/if adoption/adaptation takes place, Technologies have features (functionalities) and spirit (goals), Organizations have tasks, organizational structures, New structures emerge as technology is embraced
Jones & Karsten 2008 Review Gidden's 1984 Structuration Theory, which is a base of AST
For positive impact a technology must:, Be used <= and intention drives usage, Use is not always voluntary, Utilization does not necessarily drive performance, Have fit with task it is intented, TTF is the degree to which a technology assists an individual in performing her portfolio of tasks. It is correspondence between requirements, individual abilities, and tech functionalities.
Fishbein & Ajzen 1975 TRA, Beliefs--> Attitutdes --> Intentions --> Action
Davis 1986 TAM, PU, PEOU
1. Performance Expectancy (PU) 2. Effort expectancy (PEOU) 3. Social influence ... all drive behavioral intention, All 4 drive Use behavior
4. Facilitating conditions (technical & organizational infrastructures)
Definition of Process Virtualization, Process: a set of steps to achieve an objective, Physical Process: involves physical interaction between people or between people & objects, Virtual process: physical interaction is removed
Virtualizability measures: 1. Adoption 2. Quality of process outcomes
Main negative effects to virtualizability, 1. Sensory requirements 2. Relationship requirements 3. Synchronism requirements 4. Identification & Control requirements
Moderators of main effects (all positive moderators that enhance main effects), 1. Representation 2. Reach (participation across time & space) 3. Monitoring capability
This theory is different from prior theory, Virt. vs. Innovation Diffusion: These constructs are characteristics of a process, innov diff refers to innovation characteristics (relative advantage, ovservability, complexity, etc), Virt. vs. Media Richness: Media richness refers to person-to-person communication. Virt theory applies to both communication and other processes like trade
Overby & Kosynski 2008 PVT in the context of IS, Virtualization is core to IS discipline: 1. electronic commerce studies 2. distance learning studies 3. online community studies 4. virtual team studies --> Are all unique topics to IS, PVT relates to TTF in explaining what tasks can be virtualized, but is is more general than TTF becuase it addresses other issues (i.e. economics)
Technology centric 1. Unique characteristics of digital goods 2. Network effects in IT-based business 3. Human behavior/interaction in IT-mediated space
Business centric 1. IT transforms industry & society 2. Investment in IT is critical 3. Usage of data for decision-making
Invariant aspects of IT 1. Digital representation of information 2. Sustained growth of computing power 3. Increase in complexity and usefulness via modularity
Salomon & Perkins 1998 Individual & Social Aspects of Learning, Learning involves: 1. Situative, participation-oriented social aspects 2. Cognitive, acquisition-oriented individual aspects
Piccoli, Ahmad & Ives 2001 Effectiveness of web-based learning (Virtual Learning Environments), Learner control (def): degree of discretion that students can exert over the pace, sequence, and content of instruction in a learning environment, There is no clear improvement or decline in educational effectiveness by the introduction of distance learning technologies, VLE (in terms of learner control) leads to higher reported computer self-efficacy, but also to less satisfaction with learning process
Allen et al 2004 Effectiveness of distance learning, Meta-analysis to compare literature on distance learning, Distance education (def): a course in which the expectation is that the student and instructor will not be physically copresent in the same location, Result: distance education technologies do not necessarily create less effective learning environment and, in some instances, may increase effectiveness
Media Richness (def): The ability of information to change understanding within a time interval. Face-to-face is richest., Criteria for richness: 1. Feedback 2. Multiple cues (voice, video, text) 3. Language variety (range of meanings; numbers vs. text) 4. Personal focus
Performance increases when managers match media richness with task equivocality., Use richer media for equivocal tasks (where there are multiple and possible conflicting interpretations to the available information), Use lean media for non-equivocal tasks
Uncertainty can be dealt with more information, equivocality can only be dealt with richness
Dennis & Kinney 1998 Testing MRT, prior studies analyzed media choice, but not actual outcome performance, Rationale: MRT was proposed for communication tasks, and this study focused on decision making tasks. MRT might only be suitable for simpler communication tasks.
Channel expansion theory is a theory of media perceptions that explains what factors drive user perceptions of user media, Dependent variable is "perceptions of channel"
Find that experiences, rather than plain channel usage, drive richness perceptions, 1. Experiences with the channel 2. Experiences with messaging topic 3. Experiences with organizational context 4. Experience with co-participants
Can explain failure of MRT: managers chose media because they developed richness through experiences, rather than richness being inherent en media. Experiences drive richness.
Dual-task (def): (1) contributing to the discussion and (2) processing new information received from discussion
Dual-task interference actually reduces the capability of information processing and consequently the performances of the decision making process
Virtual Team (def): 1. temporary (no common past nor future) 2. culturally diverse 3. geographical dispersed 4. electronic communication, Pros: flexibility, responsiveness, lower costs, dynamic, Cons: low commitment, role overload, role ambiguity, absenteeism

Study uses Identity-based view to understand how the use of IT-based features in community are related to knowledge contribution
There is a positive relationship between perceived identify verification and knowledge contribution and satisfaction, Identity is related to extrinsic beneifts (recognition & economic rewards), But not related to intrinsic benefits (sense of self-worth, social norms, social affiliation)
Perceived identify is improved by virtual co-presence, persistent labeling, self-presentation and deep profiling
Based on theories of collective action: individual motivations and social capital
Social Capital (def): resources embedded in a social structure that are accessed and/or mobilized in purposive action
Drivers of Contribution 1. Individual Motivations (reputation & joy of helping) 2. Structural Capital (centrality) 3. Cognitive Capital (self-related expertise & tenure in the field) 4. Relational Capital (commitment & reciprocity)

Pros of Disaggregation: 1. Cost reduction 2. Access to large pool of personnel 3. Faster cycle time for design & dev 4. Access to large growing market
Cons of Disaggregation: 1. Difficulties in communication and coordination 2. Potential violation of IPR (intellectuual property rights) 3. Lack of control on quality & schedule 4. Political & government concerns 5. Cultural diversity 6. Unstable economic, political & social environments
Activities likelier to disaggregate: 1. High in information intensity 2. Low in customer contact need 3. Low in physical presence need
As in outsourcing, consider "strategic importance" and "organization's relative efficiency in performing activity"
Drivers of occupation disaggregation: 1. Codifiability 2. Standardizability 3. Modularizability
Effects are moderated by skills: higher needed skills mitigate convenience of disaggregation, The inclusion of skills extends Apte & Mason's work, Find that high-skill and information intensive jobs have actually experience employment growth, rather than suffered from disaggregation => there's is still spikiness

"In deepest hollow of our minds
A system failure left behind

Dull residue of what once was
A shattered cloud of swirling doves
And their eyes change
As they learn to see through flames
And their necks crane
As they turn to pray for rain "

Brasserie St Quentin
I had lunch here recently and it was as reliable as always.
For the first time I had a corner seat and got to enjoy a view of the room - previoulsy I've only eaten there at a table for two and sat in the non-banquette, wall-facing seat.
Don't come here expecting fireworks from the kitchen. Straightforward but high quality brasserie cooking is their thing. I had a mushroom tart as a starter and lamb as main course. Both were very nice. My only complaints are that one of us asked for rare lamb and another for medium but we received two medium. A bit more care with the cooking time is needed. Also, we would have liked mint tea made with real mint (good for them too as mark-ups on this are always healthy).
For London the prices are reasonable and they also offer a set-price lunch menu. Wine prices are also reasonable for London. Two of us opted for sparkling water and the other two for tap water. A nice touch in these eco-conscious times is that they have pre-prepared jugs of iced water - a change from the usual restaurant mineral water-pushing, profit-margin scam.
Service was fine - there when you need it but no pointless interefernce.
Pop in next time you're visiting the V&A or Natural History Museum. You shouldn't be disappointed.

A truly dreadful restaurant.
I ate there recently with a friend. We had the Tasting Menu at £37.50 a head. For this we received one of the worst meals I have ever eaten.
Let's start with the ok point (I would write "good points" but nothing at Amaya managed to clear that hurdle): the naan bread was ok.
And now for the bad. The Tasting Menu involved a variety of small dishes, "Indian tapas" I suppose you could call them. These included:
Pickles - frankly I'd rather take the usual yoghurt, lime pickle and mango chutney combination at the Star of India down the road. Here we had some kind of plum chutney (didn't taste of anything), something else tasteless and two pots of dust, one yellow and one pink. Who knows what we were supposed to do with these - mix them into a paste like mustard powder?
Smoked piece of fish and smoked piece of chicken - bearable but nothing better.
Potatoes - these came decorated with yoghurt and sweet tamarind sauce as if a 99 ice cream. Imagine a plate of bad patatas bravas you might get in some cafe in Spain.
Broccoli with yoghurt - yep that's it. Just broccoli with some yoghurt on top. We ate about a third of this. The broccoli was barely cooked.
A venison kebab - a very small tube of meat with some grotesque orange paste running through the middle. It looked like a small dog's penis.
Piece of chicken in green marinade - this may have been ok, I don't know. As it was red raw I barely tasted it.
Service was friendly, but none of the Poles and other Eastern Europeans working there had a clue what any of the stuff they were serving was supposed to be.
Expect to see this place featuring in the next series of Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares.

Il Convivio
Visited for dinner recently and had a so-so experience. Service was fine, wine list not too badly priced for London and food was also fine (although they need to go easy on the salt shaker).
Two problems however: firstly the deal here is that you pay for the number of courses, rather than per dish. Normally I'm a big fan of this, but it's not so good when - as at Il Convivio - the restauarant slaps a hefty supplement on anything slightly out of the ordinary. Here we have £4 extra for lobster, £5 extra for veal, etc. meaning that the final bill is likely to be a bit of an uplift compared with what you were expecting.
Secondly they have crammed in far too many tables, so that when the place fills up the noise levels beocme unbearable. Not so bad if you're on a round table for 4 or 6, but if you are on a table for 2 separated by a mere 6 inches from the table alongside then you can forget about your privacy as soon as they seat someone next to you. Great if you have a morbid interest in the minutiae of strangers' lives; not so great if you actually want to hear what your fellow diner is saying and want to be able to move your arm without elbowing the person next to you. So what's the excuse for this? Well there isn't one - more covers equals more profit, so it's down to pure greed.

Via Condotti
Food o.k., not pricy by London standards but would be anywhere else.
Service is pretty useless; you have to ask for everything (bread, water, aperitif, wine list etc.) twice before they bring it.
For some bizarre reason they also squash everyone into the back of the room, leaving all of the tables at the front empty. Maybe they want passers-by to see that there are tables free. What they in fact see from the street is an uninvitingly empty restaurant.
I wouldn't hurry back.

AN: This was written in the middle of the night, fleeing from the busy hours of the day. I will dedicate it to our very own ISAQ, who has been EXTREMELY busy, yet still finds the time for this, To PtitAnge99 for the exact same reason, finding time to encourage us to write. And for every other person (students especially, since I am one :-) ) out there who will not care about writing in the middle of the night to add more wonderful fanfic to this site.
And off course to the many readers, who will read at any given hour of the day ;)
"Oh Come on, Bren! Don't give me that! You promised you'd come to the ball this year! Besides," Angela added with a grin. "There might be some FB Eye Candy there..." Angela singsonged the last few words, knowing it was having an effect on her friend, even though Temperance Brennan was an expert at hiding such things.
But then again, what kind of a friend would she be to not know Brennan inside out? "Oh come on Brennan! You are not going to stand there and tell me you don't know who and what I mean by that!"
Brennan shrugged her shoulders and said: "I have to admit. His physic is very..."
While she searched for words, Ange chimed in. "Honey, he is sex personified, that's what he is!" She said as she could barely keep her laughter inside at Brennan's flushed face. "I see you've noticed too..."
"Ange!" She chided, shaking her head a little and trying to keep the grin off her face.
"What? I'm not telling you stuff you don't already know, sweetie. Now let's get you ready. I picked out the cutest dress for you. You go take a shower and put the dress on. I'll help you out with make up and jewelry. Go!" Ange gently shooed her out of the living room, to the bathroom. 'I hope you are having more luck with Booth, Hodgie,
cause they both owe us for this. Like BIG TIME!' She couldn't stop the satisfied smile creeping over her face.
If this was going to work, Bren and Booth would be very grateful to them... Angela shook her head and started to focus on the task at hand. Picking out jewelry and deciding on what make up the occasion acquired.
It took Angela nearly two hours and a half before she'd styled Bren's hair and done her make up. 'So what if it nearly took me three hours? She looks fantastic! If Booth doesn't notice her now and takes here home, I'm gonna have a little chat with him in the morning.' Before they left their apartment, she looked at Brennan and said "Sweetie? You remember your promise, right? If you get bored stick with me, Hodgins or Cam, okay? We don't want to have a repeat of last year."
Brennan flushed as memories of her drunken state assaulted her. She hadn't done anything embarassing, but only because Angela had stopped her. 'Luckily Booth couldn't make it last year.' At the sound of jiggling keys, she looked up to see Angela waving them in front of her face.
"Are you driving or am I?"
Bren quickly snatched the keys. "They are my keys, Angela. I'm driving.
The two women grabbed their purses and left.
Her eyes scanned the room as she entered, a sudden disappointment welling up inside of her, until she caught sight of him across the room, talking with a few other Agents.
The moment she entered, Booth felt a shift in the room. The entire atmosphere changed. At first, he thought it was just the doors being left open by someone, but when he felt her heated gaze on him, he knew what was different. She was here. She had finally arrived. If he could believe Hodgins, this was it. This was his big chance to let her know that he had feelings for her. That, to him, she was more than a colleague. Sure, she was a partner, but she was so much more than a workpartner. He wanted her as a lifepartner. But would she want him? That was the question.
When the murmuring died all around the room, Booth finally turned around to face her. His breath hitched as he took in the sight of her. She was wearing a simple black dress with a pair of elegant, black shoes. Her hair was twisted up in her neck, exposing for more skin than usual. She looked good enough to eat.
A protective streak came over him. 'What is she doing, dressed like this? This isn't some squint reunion!' The men here weren't interested in her brain, they would be interested in other parts of her anatomy. Parts he likes to think off as his. Sure, they weren't a couple, but this was insane! He'd had to work with these men after this ball. He would have to hear remarks about her body for weeks from his fellow Agents as he was working out in the gym, eating in the cafetaria, even while doing desk duty, he'd still had to hear them lust over the body he loved. And you know what? He was not going to have it!
He walked over to her and grabbed her arm, dragging her out. "Hi, Angela. Bye, Angela!" were the only words spoken and directed to Angela, who let out a little shriek as she heard them when he left, dragging Brennan away from the ogling eyes of his fellow Agents.
"Booth? What are you doing? DON'T DRAG ME OFF! I can think and move for myself, thank you very much!" She couldn't understand why she was being dragged away from the party. "You know, you and Angela and the rest of the gutfeeling people in this world need to make a decision. Either you drag me TO a party or you drag me AWAY, cause doing BOTH is simply not logical and I won't..." She was cut off by the feeling of his lips against hers.
Booth reacted on instinct. He didn't want to hear all of this. He just wanted... well her. For a moment he was scared he had made the wrong decision. That she was going to turn around and run and he couldn't blame her. But then again, when he looked at her, he always saw it. The compassion she had, no matter what the other emotions were, clouding it. It was always there. The ability to love... but she had never given herself the freedom to do so completely. And he was determined to somehow change her mind. To make her see that love wasn't such a bad thing, when it was the right love. "You clearly had help making THIS decision, cause this has Angela's signature all over it, Bones."
When she opened her mouth to ask him what he meant, he covered her lips with his own again. Not wanting to get lost in talking. He had far more satisfying ideas for them right now.
Angela's earlier words rang in her ears. 'He is sex personified. I see you've noticed too...' And off course she had.
But he had always been so private about his personal life and his love life in particular, that she had never let her thoughts stray too far from reality. Her dreams had given her a glimpse of just how loving she thought he could be, but she had never felt weird about that. After all, no one can help what they dream about. But now here she was. As much as she hated to admit it, she was acutely aware of his body and personality. Apart from Angela, Booth was the person with the most impact on her. She looked at him for a moment, trying to make a logical and informed decision.
'It's obvious what he is offering. He wants to have sex with me...' She immediately stopped herself as she felt the warmth of his gaze travel up her spine. "No, wait... This is Booth we are talking about. He doesn't have sex. He makes love. I wish I could say they were the same, but they aren't.' They couldn't do this. Doing this, right now, would ruin everything. He was asking her permission to show her what he had been teaching her all these years. How to love with your body, mind, heart and soul. And she couldn't offer him that. She could offer him her body, but that was about all she had to offer him. Sex. Not love making. So she pulled back and said: "We can't Booth... Well obviously we can because we are both adults and you are male and I am a female..." Her voice softened as she added: "We just shouldn't."
She briefly pressed her lips to his cheeks and whispered in his ear. "I'm not ready to defy science yet." She turned around and walked back to the door and added: "Not yet anyway."
With a silly smile on his face, he watched her walk back inside. And all of a sudden, he didn't care about what he'd had to endure from his coworkers. Because there was only one Agent she was willing to think over her beliefs for.
And that was him.
The end
Thank you Julia, to point out the defie - defy mistake... But it would've been nice to know what you thought about the story and not just the spelling...

The Almost Moon is the third book and second novel by American writer Alice Sebold, author of her memoir, Lucky and The Lovely Bones. It was released by Little, Brown and Company in the United States on October 16, 2007.[1]
Artist's model and divorcee, Helen Knightly spontaneously murders her mother, an agoraphobic now suffering from severe dementia, by suffocating her with a towel. But while her act is almost unconscious, it also seems like the fulfilment of a long-cherished, buried desire, since she spent a lifetime trying to win the love of a mother who had none to spare. Over the next twenty-four hours, Helen recalls her: childhood, youth, marriage, and motherhood. Her life and the omnipresent relationship with her mother rush in at her as she confronts the choices that have brought her to that crossroads. Partly absent-mindedly, partly desperately she tries to conceal her crime, and in doing so ropes her ex-husband into the conspiracy.
The novel received mixed reviews from literary critics. While some lauded the story for its unflinching portrayal of violence and mental illness, others found it messy and unconvincing.
- The Almost Moon, comparable to Jeffrey Eugenides's The Virgin Suicides (1993), is a candid, at times horribly funny and often beautifully touching exploration of one woman's realisation that her life has been swallowed, or rather cancelled. The genius which guides The Almost Moon is its absolute, horrible, multiple truth; its staggering clarity. - Eileen Battersby, The Irish Times
- This will be welcomed by admirers of Sebold's dirty realism, quasi-poetic style and helter-skelter storytelling gifts. Amazingly, she manages to make her gothic tale as moving as it is unquestionably gripping. - The Observer
- Chapter by chapter, Sebold peels away the layers of her narrator's misery and self-deception, and creates an extended and sometimes blackly comic critique of a popular literary genre. - Helen Dunmore, The Times
- The novel is so morally, emotionally and intellectually incoherent that it's bound to become a best seller. - Lee Siegel, New York Times [2]
- Practically every paragraph is a talking point. - Newsweek
- Sebold can write, that's clear, but her sophomore effort is not in line with her talent. - Publishers Weekly
- Simultaneously uncomfortable and absorbing. - Kim Hedges, San Francisco Chronicle
- The book is emotionally false... it is implausible that people would react to the murder as they do. - Elizabeth Hand, Village Voice
- Sebold has achieved something vastly more resonant and real than the fairy tale that made her name. - Michael Antman, PopMatters

There are many type of labiaplasty procedures. I personally prefer my method of doing labiaplasty procedures using a modified posterior wedge technique. It can give you very good symmetry of the labia, it looks the best aesthetically, and postoperatively they experience less pain in my experience. In addition, many patients have more satisfying sex since the sensitive thin delicate labial edges are left intact. You can learn more on the link below. Details are on my website on the link below. Your concerns are exactly the reason why I developed my technique. Good luck.

Clitoris extends way passed the clitoris
Thank you for sharing. It sounds as though you need an evaluation prior to anyone making a definitive recommendation. That said if you clitoris is not enlarged due to excessive steroids (either administered or produced by your body) then yes one can have a clitoral lift and a clitoral hood reduction. If your clitoris is enlarged then you are really looking at a clitoral reduction. So yes there is limitation to clitoropexy. If your labia are thick they can be thinned out and reduce simultaneously at one surgery.
I would recommend finding more than one surgeon to get an opinion but please choose a surgeon who has experience in all of the cosmetic procedures available.
