Psychologists define
as the process of
acquiring new information or relatively enduring behaviors.
Pets who learn that the sound of an electric can opener signals the arrival of their food illustrate
classical conditioning.
In classical conditioning, a stimulus that elicits no response before conditioning is called a(n)
unconditioned stimulus.
In Pavlov's experiments, the sound of the tone triggered the dog's salivation. Salivation to the sound of a tone was a(n)
conditioned response.
Extinction occurs when a ________ is no longer paired with a ________.
Because of the discomfort and embarrassment associated with his childhood bed-wetting, Andrew becomes nervous whenever he senses an urge to urinate. If genital arousal subsequently makes Andrew unusually anxious, this would best illustrate
After he was spanked on several occasions for spilling his milk at a restaurant, Colin became afraid to go to the restaurant. In this case, spanking was a(n) ________ for Colin's fear.
unconditioned stimulus
B. F. Skinner's work elaborated what E. L. Thorndike had called
the law of effect.
Skinner developed a behavioral technology that included a procedure known as
A pigeon is consistently reinforced with food for pecking a key after seeing an image of a human face, but not reinforced for pecking after seeing other images. By signaling that a pecking response will be reinforced, the image of a human face is a(n)
discriminative stimulus.
Giving a hungry rat food for pressing a bar before the rat has a chance to engage in other incidental behaviors like running or scratching best illustrates
immediate reinforcement.
The way slot machines reward gamblers with money best illustrates
partial reinforcement.
An executive in a computer software firm works with his office door closed. At the same time every hour he opens the door to see what his employees are doing. The employees have learned to work especially hard during the five minutes before and while the door is open. Their work pattern is typical of responses that are reinforced on a ________ schedule.
Administering an aversive stimulus following an operant response is
positive punishment.
B. F. Skinner believed that teaching machines could promote effective learning because they allow for both
shaping and immediate reinforcement.
An organism learns associations between events it does not control during the process of
classical conditioning.
An integrated understanding of associative learning in terms of genetic predispositions, culturally learned preferences, and the predictability of certain associations is most clearly provided by
a biopsychosocial approach.
The views of learning advanced by Ivan Pavlov and John B. Watson underestimated the importance of
cognitive processes.
Operant response rates remain highest when individuals anticipate that their behavior will actually lead to further reinforcement. This best illustrates the importance of ________ in operant conditioning.
cognitive processes
Because Yuri was curious about human behavior, he enrolled in an introductory psychology course. George registered because he heard it was an easy course that would boost his grade-point average. In this instance, Yuri's behavior was a reflection of ________, whereas George's behavior was a reflection of ________.
intrinsic motivation; extrinsic motivation
Skinner is to shaping as Bandura is to
Five-year-olds copy senseless and irrelevant adult actions such as stroking a plastic jar with a feather before reaching inside the jar for a toy. This best illustrates
Socially responsive toddlers who readily imitate their parents tend to become preschoolers with a strong internalized conscience. This best illustrates the impact of
observational learning.
Children are especially likely to behave aggressively after viewing TV violence in which an attractive person commits
justified violence that causes no visible pain or harm.
Most of the TV shows that 9-year-old Fred watches involve violence. This is most likely to lead Fred to
perceive the injuries of victims of violence as less severe.

Target: Elias Voulgaris, District Commander of Chicago Police Department 19th District
Goal: To take appropriate disciplinary action against an officer who carelessly shot a puppy
Recently, a puppy in Chicago, Illinois was carelessly injured in an unnecessary shooting. The puppy was shot by a police officer who was giving out parking tickets in a local neighborhood. No action has been taken against the police officer and justice has yet to be attained for the puppy and his owners.
Colonel Phillips is the 7-month-old puppy that was shot by the police officer. The police officer shot at Colonel twice, but luckily he missed and did not make a direct hit. The puppy was hit by the ricocheted bullet and bullet fragments. Colonel has received surgery to remove the bullet lodged in his back left paw as well as bullet fragments in his stomach. While Colonel is well and making a speedy recovery, he may have a limp for the rest of his life.
Al Phillips, Colonel's owner, is extremely upset by what has occurred. He and neighbors who witnessed the event say that Mr. Phillips was not given ample time to get Colonel; Mr. Phillips is 74 years old and has a bad knee so he cannot move quickly. The neighbors who witnessed the event are extremely puzzled by the officer's actions and claimed that the officer drew his gun on Colonel after the puppy approached him "wagging his tail." Witnesses say that the event took only a matter of seconds to escalate; the police officer screamed at Colonel twice before firing at him.
After shooting Colonel, the police officer went back to writing parking tickets. He did not address the situation that had just taken place nor did he apologize or explain his actions. Currently, no action has been taken against this police officer; neighbors of Mr. Phillips said that they have seen him still on the streets in his uniform. Sign the petition below to demand justice for Colonel and his family.
Dear Mr. Voulgaris,
A police officer from the 19th District recently shot a puppy. Although the officer claimed he was defending himself, he did not give the owner of the dog ample time to collect his dog or to inform the officer that his dog was harmless. Witnesses claim that the puppy approached the officer "wagging his tail." It is apparent that this officer has not received proper training regarding animal behavior and temperament if he saw a happy puppy as a threat. Something needs to be in order to prevent future instances like this from occurring.
This police officer must be reprimanded for his actions. The shooting took place in an open area that was near a preschool. Colonel, the puppy that was shot, was lucky enough only to the be hit by ricocheted bullets. This situation could have been far worse; the ricocheted bullets could have hit onlookers and even children. Please take the action to reprimand this police officer in an appropriate manner.
[Your Name Here]

Pearl Escapes
Hi there I'm Pearl Howie. Recently I went to a business event where, when asked what I did, I said " I help people escape." 90% of the people I spoke to said "Ooh, that's what I need." And then they say... "what do you mean by escape?" And I answer "Anything that makes you feel alive*."
It seems strange that I even have to define what "feeling alive" means, but it's different for everyone and it changes too. The heart of it is feeling your feelings - something that we just can't do when we're numb. What do I mean by numb? Well for some it's too much work, too much alcohol, too much social media interaction, too much perfectionism, it's really about the dosage, it can even be too much exercise. (This is my philosophy on the deeper reasons we feel the need to numb.)
My new book "free - Feeling Real Emotions Everyday" (available now exclusively online from Lulu) is all about my journey, my very recent journey to waking up everything inside myself that I had numbed. And I didn't do it with alcohol or drugs, prescription painkillers, gambling, work or even perfectionism, mainly I did it with positive thinking - looking on the bright side and a big dose of "reality". And just shutting down anything that wasn't "keep smiling."
The more I share the message in this book the more it amazes me the impact it has. Already I have seen people drastically change their lives, take the leap they've been dreaming of and, most of all, just realise it's okay to follow their hearts and be themselves. (I don't think I understood before that "Be Yourself" is both the easiest and hardest thing for many of us.) If you'd like to know more or invite me to speak to your group or at an event, I recommend you read the book and if it's something that speaks to you give me a holler.
I have a wonderful business, based on amazing escapes I have experienced, but until this awakening in Arizona I was running myself into the ground, doing more and more of what I had become known for, even though it was exhausting me in every way (and here I am telling everyone else they need to escape, right?!) It was the combination of an incredible retreat in Sedona and a native American healing at Aji Spa that brought me home to myself and helped me to see the ways I was going against myself in order to be "successful". True success, true freedom is living your own life, being yourself no matter what anyone else thinks and not who "everyone" tells you you are.
So if that sounds like something that might be useful to you please, get in touch, or join my weekly email newsletter to get more of an idea of what I do. I'm also available to consult (on 07770 846 284 or firstname.lastname@example.com) on creating your own perfect escape.
I've personally tried and tested every single one of the escapes listed on this website - I wanted to be able to recommend everything with complete integrity (which is why there's usually a note if I'm ever offered anything for free).
You can also see where I'm currently exploring on Instagram or Facebook or check out my latest blog. See my Instagram feed below...
On one of my last escapes, a sweat lodge in the Mexican jungle, our guide said this "You don't choose the Temazcal (that's the sweat lodge) the Temazcal chooses you." This made perfect sense standing half naked in the jungle but sometimes the mystery fades when you come back to "civilisation". But if you are feeling a call, an intuition to do something or be somewhere and you need some guidance or cheerleading, get in touch - let's see if I can help you escape.
x Pearl

Right choice for High Court but wrong process
Page Tools
The Government's selection of Justice Susan Crennan for the High Court bench has been welcomed by both sides of politics and the legal fraternity. The Federal Court judge is a fitting choice, a sharp mind with broad experience garnered over many years as a senior barrister. Nor is it entirely incidental that Justice Crennan is a woman with three children. And is from Victoria. However, being satisfied with the choice is not the same as being happy about the way it was made. The High Court of Australia is the most important court in the land. It is the ultimate interpreter of federal and state law, common law and the constitution. The process for selecting its judges should be more objective and transparent.
The only limitation on the Federal Government's choice is the laughable requirement that the federal attorney-general consult his counterparts in the states. Of course, he does not have to take any notice of them. This licence has suited federal governments of all persuasions only too well. If one side of politics has been unhappy with a particular appointment, it has consoled itself with the thought that its turn will come. (However, the current slow cycle of swings and roundabouts must be testing Labor's patience; when Justice Crennan takes over from Michael McHugh in November, five of the High Court's seven judges will be Howard appointments.) Like the politicians, the public, too, seems content with the status quo. That reflects the generally responsible way in which governments of various hues have used their power, and the overall high quality of the jurists they have appointed. However, the fact that things have worked well enough until now is no guarantee they will continue to do so.
The political and public complacency is not shared by the legal profession. Over the years, judges, lawyers and legal academics have offered many proposals to make selection more objective. A common element is the sensible suggestion to involve an expert panel in the choice. This panel might include eminent judges, attorneys-general, prominent legal practitioners, distinguished legal academics and others outside the law. The precise make-up is not important. The panel could establish the criteria that appointees must meet. The panel could then prepare a list of suitable candidates for the High Court for the government to choose from. The panel's suggestions would not obligate the government. However, if the government chose someone not on the list, it would have to explain to Parliament how and why the choice was made.
Certainly, no Australian would want to see High Court appointments politicised in the manner of US Senate confirmation hearings. Spare us anything like the present row over President George Bush's nomination of John Roberts as Supreme Court Chief Justice. An advisory panel would be a worthwhile barrier to partisan excess by any government, yet only a modest curb on the responsible exercise of choice.
Susan Crennan is undoubtedly a good choice. But a good choice can't redeem a flawed process.
Familiar theme in a minor key
The New Zealand election result - if it can be called a "result" - proved only that the nation was in the mood for a change but in two minds about who is best equipped to deliver it. Voter indecision showed early: opinion polls fluctuated wildly while election-night commentators breathlessly called an early win for the blue camp only to end up red-faced when Helen Clark's Labour Party narrowed the gap at the 11th hour to hold the big cities. But only just.
With Labour winning 50 seats to the National Party's 49, New Zealanders showed their dissatisfaction with a government perceived to have short arms and long pockets after widely anticipated tax cuts failed to eventuate. Meanwhile, the National Party leader, Don Brash, campaigned strongly on the promise of greater reward for workers and an end to race-based funding and Maori seats. Yesterday, Clark came a step closer to government after obtaining a written agreement from the maverick New Zealand First MP Winston Peters to guarantee stability and supply. But four days after the poll, 218,000 early votes have still to be counted - including those of expatriate Kiwis - and Miss Clark is still scrambling to negotiate a workable agreement with other minor parties. A final result will not be known until October 1.
The cliffhanger result - and the feverish horse-trading that has followed - has mesmerised observers. However, the proliferation of king-making smaller parties was a widely predicted outcome of the German-style proportional voting system, known as MMP, adopted in 1996. Voters had been disillusioned with a first-past-the-post system seen to concentrate power in the major parties while disenfranchising minority groups, particularly Maoris and Pacific Islanders. And Miss Clark is no stranger to minority government. She is poised to embark on her third term as leader of a centre-left minority, although last time round the National vote collapsed to just 20.9 per cent, providing Labour with a much clearer mandate. The experience has honed her consultative skills and she is widely acknowledged as an adroit strategist.
The difference this time is that the MMP system - which requires two votes, one for a party and one for an electorate MP - has delivered a bigger Parliament. This means Miss Clark must try to harness numbers from up to six minor parties. Some, like the Greens and Progressives, are natural allies. But she also needs support from a disgruntled Maori Party and at least one centre-right bloc, whether it be New Zealand First or the Green-hating United Future party.
As one New Zealand commentator observed, there are now a lot more tails lining up to wag the dog.

Palatino Jamaican Restaurant: Homestyle Caribbean Fare in Wynwood
Oxtail and stewed cabbage ($10) at Palatino.
Photos by Zachary Fagenson
During a recent visit to Palatino Jamaican Restaurant, my entrée took longer to make it to the table than it took Food Network's Sandra Lee, Anne Burrell, and Melissa D'Arabian to cook full meals onscreen.
At this small Jamaican restaurant, there was more than an hour wait for lunch. During that time, all I heard was the whacking noise of vegetables being chopped and the ringing of a bell attached to the front door. Crowds filed in and out to pick up their food to-go. It was a smart move, because Palatino's homestyle cooking demands homestyle patience.
Owner Nadine Patrice took a seat at my table to catch her breath while she took my order. Some things, such as curried goat, weren't available, she explained. Patrice's husband, Ian Curtis -- AKA Chef Slim -- runs the tiny kitchen. Palatino's limited menu and lengthy waits are hallmarks of understaffed mom-and-pop restaurants.
Patrice and Slim bought the place, which was originally a Latin eatery, from a family member's business associate. They swapped the Latin eats for a Caribbean theme -- inspired by Nadine's Haitian roots and Slim's Jamaican ties. They covered the walls in bright, abstract paintings and placards with inspirational quotes.
Art adorns nearly all of the walls inside Palatino.
Homestyle cooking usually means huge portions of warm food. It also means kindness. Patrice offered us an extra salt cod fritter to apologize for the long wait. She said the fritters ($1.50) were assembled and fried to order. Indeed, the fritter's crisp outside and creamy inside were worth the wait.
Salt cod fritters.
With the restaurant, Patrice wants to capitalize on Wynwood's confluence of art and culture. During Art Walk, local artists hang their work on the walls. "Food brings cultures together, and in this area there isn't a lot of Jamaican food," Patrice says. "This is island food. Everybody can relate to it, and everybody's welcome."

Secure access to your porch, deck or basement with a Bruno vertical platform lift for your home. People in scooters, wheelchairs and powerchairs will enjoy a smooth, quiet ride from one level to another. Bruno wheelchair lifts offer access up to 14-feet.
Made in the USA
Ramp vs Vertical Platform Lift: If access is more than 24" off grade, a vertical platform lift is usually the best option. Ramps require 12" horizontal travel for every 1" vertical travel. For example, a 36" rise would require a 36' ramp. Ramps take up significant space and can be fatiguing. A vertical platform lift is compact and automatically powered.
Inside or Outside? Bruno vertical platform wheelchair lifts can be used outside or inside. Outside installations are so common that vertical platform lifts are often called "porch lifts" due to the common use of accessing porches and decks. Garages are a popular indoor installation of wheelchair lifts.
View Less
Sometimes called a porch lift, a Bruno vertical platform lift gives people in scooters, wheelchairs or powerchairs the ability to easily enter/exit their home -- even if they have steps into their house from a porch or garage.
In addition, vertical platform lifts can offer barrier-free access to decks or basements. Bruno wheelchair lifts are Made in the USA and can access up to 14-feet.

Lindsay Lohan "questioned by police" over jewellery theft
Lindsay Lohan
PeopleJob1_1, PeopleJob6_1, PeopleJob9_1, PeopleJob18_1, PeopleJob32_1
According to TMZ.com the starlet was "very cooperative" with the authorities and at this time they are not considering her to be a suspect.
This scandal will come as a blow to the Mean Girls star, who's currently trying to get her career back on track, shooting several films back-to-back after a long acting hiatus.
Recently Lindsay completed filming Liz & Dick, the Elizabeth Taylor TV biopic, and independent film The Canyons, written by American Psycho author Bret Easton Ellis.
Back in April, she was famously charged with misdemenour theft and probation violation for shoplifting a necklace from a jewellery store in LA.
The actress was in and out of court several times last year in relation to the high profile case and after pleading no contest in court, Lindsay was sentenced to 120 days in jail and 480 hours of community service.
But due to prison overcrowding the actress was given an ankle bracelet monitor and put under supervised house arrest instead.
Although she did have to complete her community service at a Los Angeles morgue, as well as attend therapy sessions.
Apart from a hit and run and car crash earlier this year, Lindsay has remained relatively out of trouble.

Taylor Swift: Huckleberry Bakery Babe
Posted Monday April 30, 2012 11:04 AM GMT
Enjoying some fresh air and sunshine, Taylor Swift was spotted at the Huckleberry Bakery & Cafe in Santa Monica, California yesterday (April 29).
The "Love Story" songstress was joined by a gal pal as she ate some lunch, looking gorgeous in a floral print dress and kitten heels.
In a recent interview, Taylor gushed about how much she loves her friend Selena Gomez, especially because she's such a rare find in Tinseltown.
"She's so trustworthy, never judges you and knows how to listen. We've been friends for four years and she has been through so much with me that I can say we're almost sisters."

Albom: Michigan playing beyond its years, finding ways to win
There is one game left for the championship of college basketball.
And Michigan is in it.
Let's repeat that.
Michigan is in it.
Bye, bye, Orange. Zo long, Zone. Jim Beiheim's group was ex-Cused by Michigan, the youngest team in the tournament, a group that simply refuses to play to its chronological age — and keeps coming up with new plot lines. Michigan, which hasn't been to a Final Four in 20 years, is playing for the title Monday.
If you told me this was the future when they tipped it up in November, I'd have told you there's a reason we just say no to drugs.
If you'd told me about this game Saturday morning, I'd have said the same thing!
But the truth of youth is often stranger than its fiction, and a team with three freshman starters and one sophomore superstar played a brilliant first half and survived a harrowing second half, and is now 40 good minutes from a championship banner.
Michigan is in it.
Might even win it.
Everybody contributed
Everybody. Everywhere. There were times when the Wolverines relied on guys deep down the bench. There were times they set up their offense from the other side of Peachtree Street.
Everybody. Everywhere. That's what you need when Trey Burke has one basket all night and Nik Stauskas — after 22 points last game — has zero. They bounced the ball inside. They pushed to beat it in transition. They found open looks and launched jumpers. They passed through it. They raced ahead of it. They shot over it.
This group is getting older by the minute.
Can somebody check McGary's birth certificate? I thought he was a freshman. The way he's been playing, if basketball were academics, he'd have a BA and a master's already. On Saturday, he was all over the place, a starter and a finisher. He came out with two blocks in the opening moments. Before long he'd have whip-pass assists, flying dunks, he grabbed all kinds of rebounds — even led a fast break, dishing an assist for a Tim Hardaway Jr. lay-up. A fast break? McGary? Sure. I bet he does windows, too. He's tall enough.
And — oh, look — there he was finishing a break of his own, flying down the lane, taking a Burke feed and slamming it for an 11-point lead. McGary finished with 10 points, 12 rebounds, six assists and two blocks. He was a whirling dervish, keeping plays alive, muscling for every board, getting slapped in the face multiple times. And on a night when Burke was way off, when Hardaway was 4-for-17, McGary not only played great, he led the team in assists!
He made others better. And that's how Michigan is getting this done.
Everybody. Everywhere.
You really had to see this scene to appreciate what these kids are pulling off. It is hard to describe the world inside the Georgia Dome, except to say it is not a basketball arena, unless basketball is being played on Mars. The sheer size, the length, the cavernous dimensions. And the noise! It felt as if the entire planet was sitting around you. In truth it was just 75,000 of your closest friends — or worst enemies — along with legends like Bill Russell and Oscar Robertson sitting a few feet away. How 19-year-old kids can handle this type of environment without fainting straight away is a miracle in itself.
But they did it. They survived a huge scare at the end, overcame too many missed free throws, and finally, finally exhaled.
Now they face top-seeded Louisville, which survived a scare of its against No. 9 seed Wichita State Saturday. Louisville is strong and big and talented. They may be the best team in the nation.
Unless Michigan is.
We'll have to see. Let's face it. The Wolverines have found all kinds of ways to win in this tournament. Saturday, they tried something new. The bench. Jon Horford hit a three-point play. Caris LaVert hit huge treys. Albrecht hit a long corner jumper and a bomb from somewhere near Alabama. All told, the bench had 21 points. They needed them all.
Everybody. Everywhere. This upstart band of mostly underclassmen have equaled the Fab Five in distance run in a single season, making the championship game. They can surpass them with a victory Monday - and put a crown on their heads to boot.
They're in it.
Might win it.
Really, how could this story get any better?

Church of Scientology Amsterdam Sponsors 2nd Annual Anti-Drug Marathon
Former drug addicts carry out 350 km (217 mile) run to raise awareness on the danger of drugs
Volunteers from the Church of Scientology of Amsterdam joined former addicts in a two-week 350 km (217 mile) anti-drug marathon through Holland to raise awareness of the dangers of drugs. The team kicked off their cross-country journey August 2 in the town of Den Helder with the mayor joining them for the first kilometer of the run.
Along the route, the runners are distributing booklets and flyers presenting factual information on the effects of drugs. The former addicts on the team know all too well the damage drugs cause—how drugs can lead to stealing, prostitution and other criminal activities. They also have firsthand knowledge of longterm physical, emotional and mental consequences of using drugs.
"It all seems so innocent at first," says one of the former addicts, "but if I had known how drugs would destroy my life I would absolutely never have started. If I can prevent even one youth from suffering the horrors of addiction through this marathon, then I'm happy."
According to a recent study, there is twice as much cannabis use among Netherland teens age 15-16 as the European average. The purpose of the marathon, co-sponsored by the Say No to Drugs—Say Yes to Life Foundation, the Church of Scientology [11], and Narconon [12], is to decrease teen drug use by raising awareness of the dangers of drugs.
For more information on the drug education and prevention initiative of the Church of Scientology, visit www.Scientology.org [13].
The Church of Scientology sponsors the world's largest nongovernmental drug education and prevention campaign. It has been conclusively proven that when young people are provided with the truth about drugs—factual information on what drugs are and what they do—usage rates drop commensurately.

Radio volume fade
I have a 2011 WK2 limited whenever I am driving the radio volume fades in and out, sounds like one or more of the speakers is cutting out. It only happens when the vehicle is moving. I have the 430N if that helps.
Any ideas where to start? I have tired to id which speakers are the problem but have not been able to figure that out yet.
Anyone else have an issue with this or have and idea where to start before I start tearing interior panels off.
Re: Radio volume fade
Sounds to me like speed volume compensation. It will adjust the volume depending how fast you are going in order to compensate for road noise.
Re: Radio volume fade
I didn't think it had a compensation system, initially that is what I though it was but I am sure it isn't now. It varies way too frequently, like every few seconds. I have driven GM vehicles with a compensation system and it was noticeable but only when entering or exiting a highway.
I didn't think there was a compensation system involved in our radios either...but I was going to suggest you adjust the equalizer to move the speaker level around the cabin while driving and maybe have someone help you try to pinpoint wether or not it is a speaker issue. You might be able to isolate a corner or side that has a loose connection to the speaker.
Re: Radio volume fade
Thanks, I will try that and report back with the results.
Re: Radio volume fade
None of the current Chrysler radios/media systems (130, 430 or 730 series) has speed-compensated volume control.

Brian Wachtler
President and Partner
Brian Wachtler jokes about being "the Prez" of Haberman, as his natural humility makes him a little wary of lofty titles. But his ability to lead, inspire, manage and mentor his employees, community and clients makes him deserving of the moniker. He's been part of the team for more than 14 years, helping to build Haberman into a success story, as an agency that takes on clients that fit within our mission — to tell the stories of pioneers making a difference in the world.
Beyond building relationships with potential clients, overseeing agency financials, mentoring and managing the staff and executing on the company's strategic vision, Brian is an extraordinary account leader who has helped business and nonprofit clients of all sizes develop authentic and relevant brand stories. Brian's prime directive is to lend strategic vision and make things happen for the agency's diverse client roster. Most recently, Brian managed Haberman's evolution from a traditional PR firm into a full-service marketing agency.
He also loves beer and social good, interests well-served when he co-created —with Jacqui Berglund of Finnegan's Beer— the "Social Suds" program, a quarterly gathering of social entrepreneurs in the Twin Cities working on a variety of causes. Read more here.
A Minnesota native and St. John's University graduate, Brian coaches youth hockey with his kids in Roseville. In a former life, he led the 90s alt-rock band "Becoming Lazlo," and there's still an album available out there somewhere. He counts Wilco and the Beatles – as well as his wife Tracy and two children – among his favorite musical influences.

If your room, or even your entire house, is in need of some decorative details, consider adding some depth to your door casings and baseboards with these simple techniques. Flat casings and moldings can leave a room feeling none dimensional, but by installing shoe moldings, plinth blocks, corner blocks and other decorative details, you can pull out the full decorative potential of your home.
Accurate measurements are vitally important when installing molding and trim. Gaps and mis-cuts can deter from the appearance of the final product. Remember to always read the tape measure from eye level, so that you can see exactly where the true measurement begins and ends. Another key piece of advice here is to always measure/cut the pieces just a little bit long. It's a lot easier, and less expensive, to cut a little bit more off than to have to start with a whole new piece if your first cut was too short.
You may find it helpful to start your measurement from the 1" mark. The hook at the end of the tape is usually not rigid, and can fluctuate as much as 1/8" as you pull on it. Just remember to add an inch to you final measurement when you are marking the piece to be cut. The joints for this project are 90 degree miters, so each piece will be cut at a 45 degree angle. When the two 45 degree cuts are pieced together, it makes a 90 degree, square, corner.
The fastest way to install trim and molding is with a nail gun. The nail gun allows you to quickly and effectively hang the trim and sink the nail heads without using a hammer. In older homes, the plaster can be brittle and using a hammer can cause the plaster to crack, crumble or fall into the wall cavity behind the trim. Make sure you wear safety goggles when using a nail gun. They have plenty of safety features, but they do create a back blast of air that can puff into your face. The goggles may help keep you from flinching.
Plinth and corner blocks give the impression that your door casing is part of a decorative column. These pieces can be easily installed over your existing flat casing. This is a chance for you to really be creative, as the flat surface of the blocks that you cut can then be enhanced with other pieces of trim to create whatever appearance you want. In this case, Ron is using a half round for the corner blocks.
Once the corner and plinth blocks are in place, install a final, top layer of trim to tie them together. This last piece will give the multi-dimensional depth to your casing that really makes it stand out. A piece of shoe molding or quarter round along the baseboard will help tie the baseboard into the plinth block that you've nailed to the casing as well, thus leaving all of the room's trim at the same depth.
Spend a little time with a caulk gun in your hand to fill all of the gaps and seams in your work. This step will guarantee a professional appearance. Once the caulk has dried, prime any bare wood and then coat the entire project area with a semi-gloss enamel paint. The semi-gloss will give the perfect sheen to your new trim work, and it creates a hard enough surface to help protect it from nicks and dings better than a flat paint.

Clearly a case of post-shift bitching. We're all quite often guilty – myself included. Nothing we'd ever say to a guest obviously. There's little wrong with relieving a little stress amongst co-workers, by spewing a bit of pent-up venom after work, Epic…

Casey Young – Bad Bar Behavior 3
Well, she's at it again folks. The all-too-familiar, trendsetting bar customers have sure made their mark on the ever lovely Casey Young .It's pretty difficult not to show mad love for a fellow barkeep who also has to deal with indeliblely pompous and inconsiderate guests (like Mr. Fake Big Baller) so frequently, that the need to identify and exploit their dumb asses in YouBoob satire becomes completely unavoidable. Believe me, I get it. Subscribe to her channel and enjoy.
Casey Young Waxes on Bad Bar Behavior
Here at TTAB, I'm just about never opposed to showcasing a fellow bartender who (a) consistently displays mad mixology skillz or evident bartending experience and (b) has upped their social media game somthin' special, putting their unique personalities front and center. Like many a [straight] walking penis, I'm particularly enamored when said barkeep happens to be.. ehem… hot. So it is with great pleasure that I "discovered" Ms. Casey Young recently and highlight this pretty young thing for your viewing pleasure.
This Bartender Knows Monogamists
Well, more like I knew The Monogamists. Sex and The City – Season 1, Episode 7. I know, I know… it's not Throwback Thursday just yet. But what the hell. Pouring through some really old hard drives from yester-year, I dug up some vintage photos and video footage. Some of them – naturally – I really didn't want to see (read: relics of relationships crashed and burned). Others, had me awash in smirks and nostalgia.
Mixologist Smackdown – Eric Alperin Waxes on Douchery
I've written much on the why, how and when previously kind and hospitable bartenders mysteriously transform into utter assholes or douchebag mixologists. But, don't take it just from me. I'm not the only game in this town (or The Wrong Coast for that matter). Enter Eric Alperin of Hey Bartender fame (I'm still waiting to see the movie) and barkeep at L.A.'s The Varnish.
The Science of Hangovers – Debunking Common Myths
So, you wanna be a baller, huh? You love to pound shot after shot, cocktail after cocktail in an effort to show just about all your bros (and often hos) that absolutely no one can possibly upstage you during an evening out, by drinking you under the table. How well you "handle yo' licka," is a skill which must be conveyed to all your homies at any cost. Among several problems with such an excessive endeavor, including (1) rapidly draining the evening's budget and tapping into the Rent Reserve (2) funnin' strangers boobs without a formal invite and (3) eating a fist full of teeth and getting tossed on your bum, perhaps the most challenging may be the dreaded Hangover.
What in tarnation causes a hangover anyway? How do you avoid it? Most importantly, how do you get rid of it once you have it?
We're Going Ham With The Mint Julep
It's nearly Kentucky Derby time fools! Personally, I don't give two craps. I'm the anti-hero when it comes to sports. Golf, Horse Racing, and NASCAR make me dry-heave an extra two times with, twisting my gut with extraordinary pain. I know, I know - sacrilege, right? Especially for a bartender and a dude! I couldn't care any less about following football, basketball, hockey (extra yikes!), and baseball. My straight guy friends (they're rare – 9/10 of my friends are hot chicks) hate on me endlessly for being "anti-sports," a befitting description of me since my early twenties. Shockingly, many of my gay guy friends have a ton more interest in following sports than even I do. Somehow, I fake it pretty good when engaging sports fanatics with seemingly endless conversations at the bar.
The only reason I care about the Kentucky Derby, is because it's yet another excuse to drink a classic cocktail.
Huff Po Calls Out Cranky Bartenders – Yours Truly Steps Up
I started this blog as a goof, an outlet for a few pent-up frustrations, and for self-psychotherapy. I held no other expectations. The unexpected however, has a way of creeping up on your ass when you least expect it. Having a [public] social media presence has a way of attracting attention – sometimes wanted, other times – not so much. So it's been with this blog as the year and a half has crept by.
On the good side, I've met all kinds of Hospitality blogger geeks and established some pretty cool relationships. I've had the good fortune of being contacted by, and participating in several articles, interviews, and now videos, from major and minor publications. It's all good I guess.
So it was the other day when Huffington Post reached out to me. They highlighted an article from BroBible.com, "Confessions of Bartender" and reached out to a few folks (myself included) to add a little colored commentary. The article is pretty well written and accurately conveys many issues and concerns I've mentioned previously.
Gotta love the InterToobs and Google Hangouts I must say.
Mr. Mixologist
"Aviation Aramos Fizz…" and 10 minute, $20 cocktails. "Smoked Salmon Infused Vodka… over Lava Rocks." "Sazerac with some muddled Sage." You can pin the blame for the mixologist craze mostly on Jerry mother-fucking Thomas. Yeah… more on him to come. Post-Prohibition revival and modern fainboi'ism of all things late-19th century have also had a hand. In the last few years, Brooklyn and San Francisco hipsterdom (who seem to have committed every passage of Imbibe to memory) took all this shit and ran absolutely raving wild with a ridiculously wide expanse of "throwback," speakeasy'ish saloons. They're not done. There seems to be no end in sight to this pseudo-retro explosion. It's all gone a bit too far. Me? I heart me most of those cool spots as evidenced by my Pub Crawl. I just hate when folks go overboard and refuse to keep it real. I like to believe that I've got mad creative skills as well – no doubt. I've contributed to many a successful cocktail program. But mostly, I schlep my ass off in busy ass bars. Do yourself a favor and watch this epic video backlash.
Supersize Wine Glass
This lovely evening has graced the New York City area with Mother Nature's finest imitation of shit London weather. I fucking love London. I don't love London's weather (or Londoners' teeth). When it gets all rainy and overcast like this, I grow fond of planting my dumb ass firmly on the couch. I like to compliment the R&R by consuming serious quantities of cheap vino, that I've convinced myself is a far more expensive varietal. I usually accomplish my mission by dribbling some $5 Trader Joe's crap into a fancy, over-sized crystal goblet. I'll swish it around, study the "legs," rest in the "nose" for a minute, and finally, gargle the first gulp like a banshee. Good show, eh?
The only rub is that I have to keep getting my lazy arse up to refill my lovely goblet lest my buzz go by the wayside. The solution? Vat19′s Texas-sized gargantuan wine glass. Itholds a fucking fifth of liquid people. That's an entire bottle of wine – 750ml.
I've decided that I'm in the wrong business. I should not be bartending. I need to dream up some ridonculous (but truly useful) products in the footsteps of my Clapper, Chia Pet, Snuggly, and Foreman Grill predecessors.

Double Duty Word Shortcut
When you start MS Word, do you find that you're constantly wishing you'd never closed the program since you're just going right back to the last document you opened?
Ever wish you could get Word to open that last file immediately without extra work from you?
Well, if you seem to use that same file both first thing in the morning and last thing at night, then this tip might just be the thing you're looking to learn about.
What we're going to do is create an additional shortcut to Word on your desktop. The only difference is that this shortcut will be different from the one you currently use. This new one will open both Word and the last document you opened with just one double-click.
Good! Then let's get to the shortcut making process.
First, you need to locate your Winword.exe file. I found my file at this location: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10.
Once you've located the file, right click and drag it to the desktop.
When you release the right mouse button, you'll get a small menu of choices.
Choose Create Shortcuts Here.
A new Word shortcut will appear on your desktop and this is the one we will modify.
Time to right click on the new Word shortcut and choose Properties from the menu.
You're looking for the Shortcut tab, Target field.
Add to the end of the target destination /mFile1. Be sure that you simply add this to the end, do NOT delete to original target!
To make this shortcut different from your original Word shortcut, you could click the Change Icon button to switch pictures and/or use the field at the top of the General tab to rename your shortcut.
Click OK when you've made your changes.
That's it! You now have a customized Word shortcut that does double duty – it opens Word AND the last document with one quick double-click!
~ April

From Customer To Channel Partner
Posted by Edward Ferrara on May 7, 2012

Even though it is not specific to security, this idea came to me while attending Dell's Annual Analyst Conference (DAAC) in Austin, Texas two weeks ago. One of the hot topics discussed at the conference is the issue of bring your own device (BYOD). Dell recognizes this is a major trend and is looking for ways to remain true to its business-to-business DNA but still offer a competitive end-point solution with strong management and security capabilities. This is a problem for companies like Dell because a significant amount of revenue comes from corporate and not consumer sales, but BYOD is a consumer sale.
Not all is lost, however. As corporations move away from purchasing blocks of PCs for their employees, they will still have the capability to influence their employees to purchase certain equipment. The value for the employer is that they can still have some visibility to the types of equipment employees will use. The employee wins because they have assurances that the equipment they purchase has been vetted with some level of assurance that there is compliance with company systems.
What this means is that organizations will need to treat their former business customers as channel partners. I can envision scenarios where device makers provide their former customer marketing funds and special incentive funds (SPIFs) to encourage employees to buy their equipment. They will also be willing to offer the end user customer/employee a volume discount for employees for purchasing specific equipment. All of the major cell phone providers provide this type of program. PC makers, but also other types of device makers, need to start looking at their former customers as channel partners.
There are precedents for this. As my son heads off to college, the college bookstore has sent him a number of differing promotional pieces highlighting specific Apple and Dell computers available for purchase at attractive discounts. Cell phone carriers also provide volume discounts for company employees.
So, what does this mean for information security? Well information security and specifically risk management is the science (and art) of dealing with the acceptance or transference of risk. At first blush, allowing an employee to bring his or her own device would actually increase the security risk of the device. However, this is not necessarily true. In order to understand this further, let us consider what information is resident on a device, and what information is transient. The other question is: this information that is either at rest or in motion, can it be effectively encrypted and decrypted by a web-based/services-based application?
Clearly, the answer is yes. Application and specifically secure application and data encapsulation will become the norm. Assuming companies adopt this architecture, the endpoint ceases to become the weakest point in the security ecosystem. This does mean the end of the truly fat client with respect to the delivery of the application. It does not mean that OS X or Microsoft Windows will go away, but it does mean that they are less and less important. As such, organization's security architecture will need to focus on secure application containers running on a variety of devices and operating systems. The devices that can host these containers most effectively will be the ones the device makers' new channel partners will want to sell.

Acoustical Measurements on Experimental Violins in the Hanneforth Collection

In 2011, the collection of Prof. Wolfgang Hanneforth was donated to the Museum of Decorative and Industrial Arts in Hamburg (MKG), comprising some 250 string and wind instruments. The focus of Hanneforth's 30 year collecting activity was on experimental constructions and innovations in the 19th and 20th century. Since the foundation of the patent office ("Kaiserliches Patentamt") in 1877 more than 300 patents have been granted on innovative violin constructions in Germany alone. Some of the unusual violins, their constructions and acoustics are discussed here: a violin with a fold in the top, or with the strings attached to a bridge on the top, or relatively flat and without a waist, or with a cornet replacing the wooden body. How will these instruments sound? Guided by some of the basic principles of violin acoustics, seven of these experimental instruments are investigated and referenced against a valuable Stradivari violin and against a student level instrument, both not part of the collection. Section 1 introduces into some of the basic principles of violin construction, Sect. 2 briefly explains the measurement method and summarizes target acoustical properties using a fine example of a Stradivari violin and a moderate example of a conventional violin. Section 3 holds results for the investigated violins and discusses construction modifications in the light of the outlined principles and the employed references.

I'll see this one, thanks! I seem to like a lot of movies that get bad press, and I also sometimes don't get the ones that are raved about.

FPS Russia did a video most recently proving how inaccurate most of the weapon scenes are, he actually shot a LAW rocket at a truck, proving you can't see it as it travels at like 900fps, but in the movie it shows it going like 200fps
It's on youtube.
One must remember its a movie.
The explosions will be bigger, the bullets might spark, and some things will seem to go slower, like rockets flying through the air, blasts, fireballs and they never show the proper amount of blood when someone is all shotup and laying around. One must also remember that SEALs, like to travel light and quick, so those seemingly long firefights that they get into where they expend thousansd of rounds of ammo is not reality because they simply cant carry that much.
There will be alot of embellishment and sensationalism...because thats what people want to see, thats what makes the money.

Today, news are mostly read online. Some time ago, on the off chance that you didn't subscribe to one or more daily papers, your decisions for staying aware of current news was constrained. You could read the paper at your neighborhood coffeehouse, or at the library, yet news moved gradually.
What's more, in the event that you were sufficiently fortunate to have one or more companions with an availability to the TV, you could wrangle an intermittent welcome to sit in front of the TV as a visitor. These days, thenews is news for a couple of hours and link string cutting is extremely popular among cash administration masters and mother bloggers. With a grouping of devices and online memberships, you can observe about any amusement program you like, alongside shows of numerous donning occasions.
Understanding Modern Ways to Read News
Be that as it may, in the event that you are a straight up news addict, stopping link implies not having your most loved newsgroup on by the hour. Here's the place your PC, cell phone, and a steady web association come in.The chances are great that your nearby daily paper or neighborhood TV report has a site where in any event a portion of the stories is from the paper release posted.
The daily paper may even have an iPhone or Android application that you can download onto your cell phone. You can likewise get to national and global news from distributions, for example, The New York Times through their sites. You may experience a compensation divider that spots limits on which articles you can read or what number of articles you can read without a membership, yet getting to the site from an alternate program regularly permits you to go around this impairment. All in all, news are easy to come by online nowadays.
The development of information technology has changed the way people get their daily dose of news. If previously people have to rely on the TV or newspaper, today they are able to get their news through the help of online sites, and there are many online sources of information today. Regardless of the possibility that Google isn't your web search tool of thedecision, you ought to incorporate Google as a feature of your online news-perusing weapons.
Load the Google News site into your program for a moment preview of the top stories for the hour or the day. You may likewise locate the full content of numerous stories that daily papers like The Times or the Wall Street Journal place behind sites. On the other hand, if you prefer other ways to get to your news, then you can still do so.
Numerous Online Sources of Information
Numerous neighborhood TV options and even some national show and link news stations permit you to view recordings on interest from telecasts prior to the day on their sites. You may even have the capacity to see live forms of reports from stations, for example, MHZ Worldview and Bloomberg News through their sites or through applications. Worldwide news stations, for example, Deutsche Welle and NHK World can be seen online and also through Smartphone applications.
You can read news stories and watch news telecasts specifically from the source. Or, you can find news platforms or sites that would compile all the most important current events for you. There are plenty of sites like that nowadays, yet you need to make sure that you choose the right source of information. Not all of them are capable of giving you what you need in terms of information. Some of them are rather untrustworthy, so you may need to be careful.

It's so frustrating to run across an academic paper about your favorite comic or movie or TV show. Academics always say one or two smart things and then spend the rest of a 20-page paper gabbling about incomprehensible theories we ordinary people don't have time for.
It's kind of cute, really. I picture a tenure-seeking associate professor of film or cultural studies (like the authors of 90% of these papers) tapping away on her trusty laptop — until she's brought up short! She realizes she's gone three whole paragraphs without citing Slavoj Žižek and she's in danger of failing the intellectual Voight-Kampff test! TIME TO GET THEORY'D UP!!
For a normal person, the only way to read one of these articles is according to the following rule:
If a paragraph has a lot of scholarly references, skip it.
Take this neat paper I found about how Blade Runner and other movies with a grunge-tech vibe (Ghost in the Shell, Johnny Mnemonic, Akira, Hackers) all used one particular area of Hong Kong as their template. What makes a scruffy Asian urban neighborhood more "futuristic" than a scruffy American urban neighborhood? Answers after the jump.
Want to know what this paper says? Here's what to do.
Step #1: READ PARAGRAPHS 9-13.
(Paragraph 9 is between the first two pix and starts: "Perhaps because of its recent reabsorption by China.")
Here the author talks about how Hong Kong encapsulates many of the themes of these movies, and how there's one Hong Kong district that looks exactly like Blade Runner. (Or start on paragraph 8 to read about why the Blade Runner cityscape is so cool.)
Paragraph 11 (which starts "The questions remain…") has a worthwhile quote about the cool, if poorly expressed, idea that a big city has a "radical eclecticism." In paragraph 13 (starts "Apparently no parody…") the quotes are hellish, but the stuff about levels is thought-provoking.
Step #2: SO MUCH FOR BLADE RUNNER. TIME FOR GHOST IN THE SHELL.
(The Ghost in the Shell section starts right after this photo of a nighttime park full of tiny lights.)
Do this:
—SKIP the first paragraph, which begins, "4. I now turn to Ghost in the Shell."
—READ the next two paragraphs (starting with "So we are back to our initial question"), which mostly quote a book about the movie written by non-academics.
—SKIP the paragraph that starts: "Water imagery is…"
—READ the next one, which starts: "The Analysis emphasizes…" It has more about making the movie and another quote from the (non-academic) book.
Step #3: TAKE A BREATH — YOU'RE ALMOST DONE!
The concluding paragraph is kind of charming in its haplessness. Here the author tries to sum up what he's been trying to say. Alas, only about 10% of the paper says anything coherent about its ostensible subject. The rest is just ass-covering. As if dimly aware of this, the author splurts out a little pile of Foucault quotes for his final words.
And that's it. The stuff I've pointed to is still pretty dense, but if you feel a pull toward the future worlds of Blade Runner et al, the Hong Kong influence is fun to think about. Happy reading!

Excellent point! I've had the same feeling, but I didn't put the thought into it that you have. Makes you wonder if some of those folks have a core section of what they want to say, and a junk-o-matic to flesh out the paper.

I will be 8 weeks old tomorrow. Momma said when I am 9 weeks old I get to go with my forever home. She said not to worry, Elvis is going with me. I'm happy someone picked me to go home with them! I didnt think anybody would want a deaf puppy. But you can't tell that im deaf just by looking at me, i play and run around with the other dogs just like any other puppy would. I can't wait to go home with my adoptive mom and dad! 8 days and counting!! woo hoo!
I am a 7 week old live (brown dalmatian. I am a really calm and relaxed puppy, but I also like to play with my family to. I've met my future owner Breanna twice so far. The first time I was too young and didn't know who she was. But she came to see me this past Saturday and I remembered her! Everyone thinks that I am deaf but nobody knows for sure. They have to take me to the vet the 19th to test me. But if i am deaf my owner is going to bring home my brother Elvis with me, so i wont be so lonely and it'll be easier to train me. 14 days until I go to the vet and get to go home. My moms owner couldn't get us into the vet until the 19th, which is our 9 week birthday. My owner Breanna is really excited to have me, she lives on a old farm house with 5 Acres. So it's a perfect house for a deaf puppy. Well I better go for now my momma is calling for me!
