Tickets can be purchased at the door. Event Details Get ready to rock out with UCSD Alumni at the 18th Annual Lytle Memorial Scholarship Concert. This year's musical benefit features a campus homecoming with world renowned bass guitarist Nathan East, '78 performing in UC San Diego's award-winning Prebys Music Hall. Nathan East has played with rock music's greatest artists for the past 35 years — from Eric Clapton, Stevie Wonder and Michael Jackson, to Madonna, Beyoncé and Daft Punk. At this special benefit concert, he'll return to his San Diego roots to play with UC San Diego Music faculty and alumni, while raising funds for UCSD's endowed Lytle Scholarship. About Nathan East Born one of eight children, Nathan East and his family moved to San Diego when he was four years old and set deep roots. A musician from his early years, East began playing bass guitar as a teen and appeared at local church groups and folk masses with his brothers, including regular performances at Christ The King Church in southeast San Diego. His breakthrough came while he was a member of a band named Power that was hired by Barry White for a national tour. Still a teenager, East became a member of the Love Unlimited Orchestra ("Love's Theme") playing Madison Square Garden, the Apollo Theater and other major venues. In 1978, he earned a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Music Performance from the University of California San Diego. He began work on a master's degree when instructor Bertram Turetzky suggested that he already had enough education and that it was time for him to move to Los Angeles to try and start a lucrative music career. After decades playing alongside legends of rock and jazz, East is recording his first solo album — the first in a planned two-volume project — to celebrate his musical experiences and influences. About the Lytle Scholarship and Benefit Concert Series The endowed Lytle Scholarship supports first-year students from The Preuss School UCSD who are attending Thurgood Marshall College at UC San Diego. Since 1994, the Lytle Memorial Scholarship Concert series has benefitted deserving students by raising needed funds. The concerts feature renowned pianist Cecil Lytle and noteworthy guest artists performing varied programs spanning 200 years of jazz, popular standards and chamber music.

Today is the special day of recognition and honor for all our mothers either present or absent from us. We want you to know that you hold a place of esteem from all of us. There are so many quotes that we have seen regarding our mothers. However today let us look at some of the wonderful passages of Scripture that have been pointed out to us by various writers. Our Bible has given many special places of recognition to ladies and mothers. Some of them are given names but many of them are simple denoted by a word such as a "certain" woman or mothers. We rest assured that when God the Holy Spirit places something in Scripture that it is very key and important. Today we want you to know that we honor you and most of all God honors you. Please note these selected passages.
• "I thank God…When I call to remembrance the unfeigned (genuine) faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that in thee also." 11 Tim. 1:3, 5.
• "Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee as thou wilt." Matt. 15:28. It was Charles Spurgeon who made a comment on this verse. He said, "The Lord Jesus just gave to this dear lady a signed blank check."
• "Then saith he (Jesus) to the disciple (John), Behold thy mother." John 19:27. As Jesus was dying on the cross one of His parting words was directed to the Apostle John to take care of His mother Mary. Please do not overlook the magnitude of this request of Jesus to John.
• "Who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies." This chapter of Scripture is quite famous. Here the mother of King Lemuel taught him by precept and example. In the first 10 verses she taught him by precept and verses 11-31 she taught him by example.
• "And she said unto her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is an holy man (Elisha) of God, which passeth by us continually. Let us make a little chamber, I pray thee, on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a stool and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh to us that he shall turn in thither." 11 Kings 4:9-10. These two verses are wonderful but they only open up much more of an exciting story. Do you like happy endings?
• From Ruth to Naomi…"…Intreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee: for whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God: where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be buried: the Lord do so to me, and more also, if ought but death part thee and me." Ruth 1:16-17. This has to be one of the most famous passages in Scripture. Study it and its setting and it will profound you.
• Honor thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee." Exodus 20:12. We discover an interesting comment in Ephesian 6:1-2 regarding this verse. We are told that this "is the first commandment with promise."
• "And Pharaoh's daughter said unto her (Miriam), go and the maid went and called the child's (Moses) mother. And Pharaoh's daughter said unto her, take this child (Moses) away, and nurse it for me, and I will give thee thy wages. And the woman (Jochebed) took the child and nursed it." Exodus 2:9-10. Jochebed was Moses' mother and she received wages from Pharaoh's daughter for attending her own baby (Moses). Pause for a moment and consider the real wages of Jochebed. Moses became the great leader of Israel, his brother Aaron became the first High Priest and it is said that Miriam was a prophetess. Wow what wages for Jochebed.

Better than: Your friendly, neighborhood trap boy's latest mixtape
The foot was on the gas, and the artist who wants to be known as a "king remembered in time" didn't let up on the pedal all night long. For the nearly sold out crowd at Revolution Live, Big K.R.I.T. didn't waste time rushing from behind the curtains and pacing from end to end, starting off his set with "Return of Forever," the first track from the critically acclaimed K.R.I.T. Wuz Here mixtape. Assisted by his hype man Big Sant, K.R.I.T. pulled off his first two effortlessly before letting Sant shine with his contribution.
no signs of wearing down after consecutive trunk-friendly bangers "R4
Theme Song," "Just Touched Down" and "Sookie Now," K.R.I.T. didn't miss
a beat. With a flow reminiscent of the late UGK rapper Pimp C, he invited the
audience to travel back in time with him in his "Time Machine."
Audience, fully cooperative, continued to take a ride as they circled
their hands in the air as if they were turning a steering wheel with
K.R.I.T. for the ride around anthem, "Rotation," leaving the end hook
being said acappella.
break and a search for the drinkers and smokers later, K.R.I.T. eased in
with the mellow tune "Moons and Stars," only to follow through with the
mixtape hit "Glasshouse" and "Made Alot" with partner Big Sant. With
middle fingers collaging the room, showing how much they just didn't
give a fuck along with K.R.I.T., they continued with a night of karaoke
per say as "Children Of The World" dropped, leaving K.R.I.T. to sound
like a feature.
a shout out to Pimp C, K.R.I.T. began to perform a fan favorite
"Hometown Hero," and then followed by his breakout hit "Country Shit,"
with the DJ mixing the first half of the second verse with fellow the
Mississippi native David Banner's "Like a Pimp." Showing his love for
the fans, the performer jumped from off the stage and interacted with
the audience as he continued.
better way to slow down the party than the honest, in depth "The Vent"
taking no less than 20 seconds into the song for the audience to become
silent, with a lingering sound of fans reciting the words underneath
their breath. It came to a solid ending with the new track "Money On The
Floor" featuring Eightball & MJG and 2 Chainz.
Critic's Notebook
The Crowd: Cool guys wearing the latest snap back hats, a.k.a. one size fits all.

elementary and intermediate algebra
posted by elza .
Barry can do a certain job in 9 hours, whereas it takes Samuel 12 hours to do the same job. How long would it take them to do the job working together?
Problems of this type are solvable by means of the following.
If it takes one person 5 hours to paint a room and another person 3 hours, how long will it take to paint the room working together?
1--A can paint a room in 5 hours.
2--B can paint a room in 3 hours.
3--A's rate of painting is 1 room per A hours (5 hours) or 1/A (1/5) room/hour.
4--B's rate of painting is 1 room per B hours (3 hours) or 1/B (1/3) room/hour.
5--Their combined rate of painting is therefore 1/A + 1/B = (A+B)/AB = (1/5 + 1/3) = (8/15) rooms /hour.
6--Therefore, the time required for both of them to paint the 1 room working together is 1 room/(A+B)/AB rooms/hour = AB/(A+B) = 5(3)/(5+3) = 15/8 hours = 1 hour-52.5 minutes.
Note - Generally speaking (if the derivation is not specifically required), if it takes one person A units of time and another person B units of time to complete a specific task working alone, the time it takes them both to complete the task working together is T = AB/(A + B), where AB/(A + B) is one half the harmonic mean of the individual times, A and B.
You might like to derive the equivalant expression involving 3 people working alone and together which results in T = ABC/(AB + AC + BC).

Point Man, Steve Farrar, pp. 11-12
Point Man, Steve Farrar, pp. 11-12
Albert Einstein was invited to speak at a banquet held in his honor at Swarthmore College. Hundreds of people from all over the country crowded an auditorium to hear what he had to say. When it came time for him to speak, the greatest physicist walked to the lectern, solemnly looked around, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I am very sorry, but I have nothing to say." Then he sat down. The audience was in shock. A few seconds later, Einstein got up, walked back to the podium, and spoke again. "In case I have something to say, I will come back and say it." Six months later he wired the president of the college with the message: "Now I have something to say." Another dinner was held, and Einstein made his speech.

Submitted to: Mississippi Valley Uniform Regional Barley Nursery Report
Publication Type: Other
Publication Acceptance Date: 2/20/2004
Publication Date: 2/25/2004
Citation: Edwards, M.C. 2004. Mississippi valley uniform regional barley nursery report, 2003. Mississippi Valley Uniform Regional Barley Nursery Report. pp. 1-28. Interpretive Summary:
Technical Abstract: Eleven locations contributed useable data for this year's report. The substitution of the Osnabrock location for Langdon continued (about 12 miles east). The "Nursery Conditions" section provides comments concerning growing conditions at specific locations. Average planting date was 2 days later than the 30-year average, while average heading date was about four days later than the average. The average planting date of April 29th was only one day earlier than last year. Heading date (June 28th) was six days earlier than last year. Average yield (4710 kg/ha or 87.5 bu/a) was well above both the 30-year average and the 3832 kg/ha of last year. Entries with the best yields were Newdale, BT485, 6B99-6774, M109, and M115. Four stations reported test weight; the average of 65.4 kg/hl was slightly better than that of last year (64). The greatest test weights were recorded for Lacey, M117, 6B99-6774, ND17643, and 6B98-9170. Lodging data were reported from three locations, including Crookston, Carrington, and Bottineau. The five entries with the least lodging were Drummond, 6B98-9170, BT485, 6B99-6774, and M115. Average plant height was 77.9 cm, which is very close to that of last year. Shortest entries were 2ND19929, M116, M115, Newdale, and 6B99-6339. Kernel plumpness data were reported from Crookston, Morris, Sidney, Hamiota, and Kernen. Disease data were submitted from several locations and include ratings for net blotch, spot blotch, stem rust, FHB, and DON levels.

In turn, England now sits in sixth position having slipped from third following the two comprehensive defeats. Having lost three ratings points, England now sits just behind New Zealand by a fraction of a point.
However, with five matches still remaining in the series and the ODI Championship ladder very closely packed, there is plenty of time for Kevin Pietersen and his men to make amends. On the other hand, if India can continue the way it is going, it can go second in the ladder by the end of the series.
Pakistan is the other big mover this week as Shoaib Malik's team has moved up two places to fourth following its 3-0 series win against the West Indies in Abu Dhabi.
There are now just two ratings points separating India in third position from England in sixth with South Africa just another four points ahead in second place.
Australia is still out in front, some 12 ratings points clear of the Proteas.
Meanwhile, the Indian players are already reaping the rewards of their early successes in the series. Yuvraj Singh, who scored centuries in both matches, has shot up the rankings for ODI batsmen.
The 26-year-old has gained no fewer than 11 places and now sits in sixth position as he enjoys the highest rating of his career till date.
The batting rankings are still headed by India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni followed by Australia's Michael Hussey in second place and Graeme Smith of South Africa in third.
However, England pacer Andrew Flintoff has slipped out of the top 10 in the bowlers' list. He now sits at the 13th spot. He took just one wicket in the first two matches of the series at a cost of 116 runs and an economy rate of 6.10.
The big mover in rankings for ODI bowlers is Sohail Tanvir, who has broken into the top 10 bowlers for the first time in his career after an impressive performance against the West Indies.
The 23-year-old from Pakistan has made rapid progress since making his ODI debut in October 2007 and his haul of seven wickets at an average of 15.14 and economy rate of 4.00 in Abu Dhabi has boosted him further to the tune of 12 places. He now sits in seventh spot, in between the Sri Lankan pair of Muttiah Muralidaran in sixth position and Chaminda Vaas in eighth.
West Indies speedster Jerome Taylor gains two places and heads into the top 10, underlying the fact that despite losing 3-0 with Pakistan, the series did not come without positives for the men from the Caribbean.
Aussie medium-pacer Nathan Bracken holds the top spot with 755 points, 22 points ahead of Daniel Vettori in second place with compatriot Mitchell Johnson in third.

Project DescriptionFROM THE STUDENTS:
Early design of our competition prototype. The Air House is a model of future housing. To its inhabitants it offers a comfortable interior environment that will appeal to all their senses. It is easily constructed and transportable. It utilizes energy effective technologies and materials and respects the environment. The AIR House has a flexible layout that easily adjusts to actual needs of the AIR House inhabitants, and reacts to the versatile outside conditions.
Our Vision
Houses of the future should have positive influence on the life quality of their inhabitants, to improve their environment physically and psychologically. Houses of the future must have a minimum environmental impact throughout the whole life-cycle of the building, including its construction, operation and demolition.
Architectural Concept
The concept combines a minimum interior living area with a generous outside area. The economy-sized disposition is based on the tradition of minimal housing, where an ingenious architectural design saves space and therefore saves purchase and operating costs. Our goal is to place a maximum of functional units outside the air-conditioned area and thus minimize the amount of energy needed to maintain interior comfort. The sun deck with an edible natural garden functions as a mediator between the house and the surrounding nature. The direct link between the interior and exterior areas, its simple shape and wheelchair accessibility, allow for social activities and incorporation of the household inhabitants into the local social life.
The goal of our design strategy is to create a building that is energy efficient, maximally recyclable, and that will offer pleasurable shapes and surfaces that are "molded for the touch of the eye and other senses"(Pallasmaa, 2005). Our choice of materials reflects this mission.
Precise separation of material layers and mono-material preference helps easier recyclability at the end of the building's lifecycle. As Werner Sobek would say, we would like to design "an erasable building". The used materials should also allow for easy and effective maintenance with a minimum energy and raw material input.
The Cross Laminated Timber panels produce zero waste during their production. The panels do not emit any pollutants into the interior, and therefore create a pleasant odor microclimate. In the interior, the panels are used in visual quality, which simplifies later recycling and the presence of wooden surface has a positive effect on human psyche, it feels pleasant and warm.

My son was caught by a mobile camera over 4 weeks ago on the 18th July, and although he was sent a photograph to verify his identity within 4 days, he has still not received notification of any fine.
Could anybody with knowledge of this situation please advise if there is a finite time in which fines should be notified?
Any information would be much appreciated.

He needed to be informed within 14 days (Notice of Intended Prosecution) that he could/would be prosecuted...this has been complied with, with the photo.
Normally the rest of it needs to be completed within 6 months, because if your son wished to go to court instead of pay a conditional ticket, then the information to be laid before the Magistrates by the prosecuting authority, for them to consider issuing a summons, needs to be completed within 6 months. The summons itself can come out after the 6 months, as long as the 'information' has been laid.
Edited by Westpig on 09/08/2010 at 09:23
After being flashed son should have within 14 days (less date of offence) paperwork containing a written note to the effect that he is to be Prosecuted (Notice of Intended Prosecution) together, if he is the Reg keeper of the vehicle, a form under section 172 Road Traffic act 1988 requesting that he name the driver of the vehicle WHICH HAS TO BE COMPLETED AND RETURNED with 28 days. Offence not to do so.
If there was no information that he accepts the offence and he was the driver and to discharge proceedings by paying £60 and forwarding Licence for the 3 points (known as a Conditional Offer) then it may well be this will follow once 172 form returned naming himself as driver,
His speed was outside the guide lines for a Conditional Offer then the case will be going to Court and may be why they sent a photo?, 3 - 4 months approx for summons to follow.
If there as 9 points still active on his Driving Licence and whilst his speed was well within the guide lines for Conditional Offer, a further 3 points from this offence would put him up for the totting rules ( 12 in 3 years) requiring a Court hearing and possible disqualification.
Thank you guys, (in particular DVD), for your detailed and informative replies,which are much appreciated.

A survey by a life insurance company show that 1 in 3 Japanese men in their 20s think they may not be able to find a wife, with some 60 percent of these young lovelorn males citing economic insecurity as the main reason.
The survey, conducted by Tokyo-based Lifenet Insurance Co., also found that many of the respondents would be willing to take an active role in raising children.
The results indicated a better economy could help bulk up the birthrate, Lifenet officials said.
The poll was conducted on the Internet in September and covered 450 men in their 20s.
Asked whether they think they can marry, only 27.8 percent said they want to marry and think they will, while 35.3 percent said they don't want to get married yet.
Of those who would like to get married, 36.9 are afraid they won't.
At the top of the reasons for this was economic insecurity, cited by 60.8 percent, compared with 48.2 percent who said they are not popular with women. More than one answer was permissible.

270 Win For Long Range Shooting
270 Win For Long Range
By Lucas Beitner
Ive used a 270 Winchester since about the age of 14, when my Grandpa Jack gave me one. It was a Herters U-9 (Parker Hale action I believe) and was a beautifully well maintained rifle. In my immediate family, rifles were tools used to put food on the table. They were kept in good working order but were more often than not, beat to heck. Not my 270! Mine had an almost perfect coat of gloss finish on the sharp looking stock. The bluing was flawless, bolt jeweled, and the action was lubed and slick. I took pride in keeping it nicer than the other rifles in the house. Sub MOA groups out to 200 yards were the norm, opening up to about 1.5 MOA at 400 yards. Ive taken a couple bear, a few deer, caribou, and occasional coyotes with this rifle. The performance was always more than adequate. My father and other Grandpa (Ed) had also used previous 270s to bring down many elk, bear, deer, mountain goat, etc. We used 130gr Nosler partitions, and our loads were hot. To say Im partial to the 270 Winchester would be an understatement.
When I started to involve myself in long range shooting I quickly learned the importance of the bullets ballistic coefficient. The selection of high BC bullets for the 270 at that time was dismal (In fact, its still not all that great). I quickly realized my old hand-me-down 270 would not be a part of my new hobby. My old trusty rifle began collecting dust lots of dust. Jack OConnor wrote a lot about the 270 as a long range cartridge, and potent big-game killer. His name became synonymous with the 270 Winchester and the smaller bore school of thought. After doing some research though, he was more than willing to use larger bore magnum type cartridges when needed. He was a realist as far as I can tell, and I believe he was right about the 270 win. Unfortunately though, his definition of long range was a far cry from what I was after. I was using cartridges like the 243win, 284, 7wsm, 338 Lapua, 260 rem, and 300 win mag to reach targets out to and well beyond 1000 yards. Its not that the 270 was incapable, just lacking compared to the smaller .264 bullets or the slightly larger .284 pills.
I found there were positives and negatives with every cartridge. One of my all-time favorites, the 7 wsm, provided fantastic ballistics and accuracy, but barrel life was less than ideal. After burning up my 7 barrel, I decided to play with cartridges that were a better compromise like the 260 rem. I was after decent ballistics, decent barrel life, and mild recoil. Overall this worked out very well. The problem with compromise is that you generally wind up missing something. That something was mostly wind drift. My WSM was running the 168gr Berger VLD at around 3000fps (this is a mild load compared to what some get out of the 7wsm). I found my 260rem and 300 win were close, but not quite there, at least not when conditions got tough.
Fast forward several years Chris Reid of Benchmark Barrels tells me about some new .277 bullets that just came out. It does pique my interest but then theres always something newer and better. Im always skeptical. Matrix Bullets makes a 277 bullet at 165gr with a BC over .7, he says, as if I probably already knew and they have a 190gr 7mm bullet thats even higher. He later tested the 190gr bullets in his 280 AI, with favorable results, and reports that the BCs arent all that far off (I was most skeptical of the BCs). He also tells me theyre not very jump sensitive and its easy to get them to shoot. Benchmark decided to order a new .277 button with a 1:9 twist to stabilize the new longer bullets. The rifling design is canted lands (5R style) which Ron believes to be a little easier on bullets. I was beginning to think the 270 win might become a viable long range cartridge after all. I know Chris was thinking 270 wsm or 270 Weatherby mag but hes an Elmer Keith, bigger is always better type (just kidding Chris but seriously).
Not too much later, Ron Sinnema (co-owner of Benchmark Barrels) tells me hes got the first 9 twist .277 barrel done. We talked about me testing the barrel on one of my rigs, and we talked about Benchmark getting a shop gun test platform to test all the new barrel designs and cartridges. A few days later, Ron sends me a text he finish lapped the barrel and that it came out dimensionally perfect (it sometimes takes a little experimenting to get the reamer size right for a new button).
I knew the shop gun he planned to use would be a Savage Action. If I were going to use this barrel on one of my rifles (I currently have mostly Remington actions), I would have to catch him before he contoured the barrel to accept a savage shank size. I quickly text Ron back have you already contoured it? Send A minute goes by, no response; 5 minutes go by, still nothing. Hes probably just busy with a customer. Or maybe hes setting it up in the CNC to contour it right now! I decide to call and Ron answers. I skip the pleasantries and ask him if hed already contoured the barrel, he laughs (not sure if he already knew why I was calling, or heard a little urgency in my voice) but it hasnt been contoured. I may have literally been holding my breath, now a silent sigh of relief. I told him I wanted the barrel, Remington varmint contour, 28 finished, chambered in 270 Winchester. It didnt quite sound right hearing myself say it. Thats right, straight up 270 win. The same cartridge Jack OConnor used, the one my grandpa used, the one I had used. Ron and I worked out all the details, and he talked me into eight ¼ flutes. Thank goodness he did, the fluting shaved 14 ounces from the barrel weight.
Im not a huge fan of muzzle brakes but this was to be a dual purpose (competition/hunting) rifle and I wanted to have the ability to spot my own shots. The brake design we went with was the mini muscle brake. The action is a Remington 700, with a factory tuned trigger that breaks crisply and consistently around two pounds. I went with the AICS chassis system on this rifle. I know too heavy for hunting right? I cant disagree, but it is a tough setup and Ive learned to skimp in other areas or just plain deal with it. The scope for this rifle is not fancy but it is one of my favorites, the plain old Leupold Mark IV 4.5-14x50 with M1 turrets and the TMR reticle, held in place by Seekins rings. I find these scopes to be durable, repeatable, reasonably light, and good on glass. Of course I had a 20 MOA base, Angle Cosine Indicator, bubble level etc. The finished rifle with everything including the scope, the bi-pod, and the sling weighs in at 14 and a half pounds.

Italy migrant tragedy unveils plight of survivors
By Steve Scherer
LAMPEDUSA, Italy (Reuters) - The survivors of a shipwreck off Sicily two days ago live in terrible conditions and face criminal prosecution, a delegation of lawmakers and officials said on Saturday as they called for policy changes at home and in the European Union.
Rough seas again blocked efforts to recover the bodies trapped inside a boat that sank on Thursday, killing an estimated 300 Eritrean and Somali men, women and children who were seeking a better life in Europe.
Rescue teams expect to find more than 100 others in and around the wreck, submerged in 47 meters of water less than a kilometer (0.6 miles) from the shore of the southern island of Lampedusa.
Now the plight of the 155 survivors of one of the worst disasters in Europe's immigration crisis is putting a spotlight on the shortcomings of the centers that house newly-arrived migrants, and on the laws that are aimed at keeping them away.
"We have the duty to tell the Italian government and the EU that their structures and policies are not only inadequate, but they're criminal," said Rosario Crocetta, Sicily's regional governor, after visiting Lampedusa's immigration center with the mayor and a group of lawmakers.
The center, which is equipped to house 250 people, is now packed with more than 1,000.
Reporters and TV cameras are kept out, but clearly seen through the front gate were families with children camping under a stand of shade trees, with foam mattresses for beds and clothing drying on lines stretched between the trunks.
"It's indecent," said Tommaso Curro, a lower house deputy for the 5-Star Movement. Continued...

The evidence base for Austerity was dealt a hammer blow this week by the discovery that the definitive economic paper underpinning it was based on a single Excel spreadsheet with a faulty column. The IMF has called for a rethink on Austerity, the UK's credit rating has been downgraded, the economy has stalled and unemployment is rising. Only an Austerity fanatic would continue with such a clearly bogus policy.
Another Dodgy Dossier
The 2010 'Growth in a Time of Debt' paper was prepared by celebrated Harvard economists Carmen Reinhart and Ken Rogoff. It stipulated that states with a debt to GDP ratio of 90% or above grow significantly slower than states with lower debt. They claimed this demonstrated a correlation between debt and growth and that to grow our economies quickly, we needed prioritise debt reduction. It became the evidence base by which political leaders across Europe and North America could argue a dramatic programme of public spending cuts. 'It was not ideological,' they told us,' it was evidence based'.
UK Chancellor George Osborne, speaking in 2010 shortly before he became Chancellor said:
"Perhaps the most significant contribution to our understanding of the origins of the crisis has been made by professor Ken Rogoff, former chief economist at the IMF, and his co-author, Carmen Reinhart." The chancellor then quoted the finding from their paper: "The latest research suggests that once debt reaches more than about 90% of GDP, the risks of a large negative impact on long-term growth become highly significant."
The Political Economy Institute of Massachusetts requested the calculations for the study from Reinhart and Rogoff after they found they were unable to reproduce the results themselves.
They were stunned to find the whole argument was based around a basic excel spreadsheet, given that such basic economic modelling has been responsible for the Collateralised Debt Obligations that caused the Financial Crisis.
They found not only glitches in the spreadsheet that created wrong totals, but that the spreadsheet omitted data from five of the 19 countries in the study and the wrong data for another. This meant that while the paper claimed countries with a debt to GDP ratio on or above 90% would see their economy shrink by 0.1%, they would actually grow by 2.2%. This is slower than a lower debt country, but not the doom laden forecast that triggered the extremities of the Austerity programmes.
The IMF Becomes a Critic of Austerity
This week has also seen the International Monetary Fund (IMF) recommend Chancellor George Osborne rethink his Austerity based approach to recovery, based on poor growth figures. In short, the IMF said that Austerity is not working. The fact that this call came from the head of the IMF is as bizarre as it is damning.
The IMF invented Austerity. They created a mechanism called the Structural Adjustment Programme (SAP) which meant that loans were granted to developing nations on the condition the nation followed the rules of the SAP. This was a means of the IMF effectively imposing neoliberal economic policies on the populations and sidestepping the democratic process to do so.
The SAPs are very elaborate instruments. They enforced the selling off of national industries and resources, removed all capital controls on money flowing in and out of the country, dictated level of public spending which prioritised debt repayments and corporate welfare over infrastructure investment and human welfare; they even covered suppression of wages and unionisation rules for labour.
The results of the Structural Adjustment Programmes speak for themselves. They have allowed external corporations to make enormous profits by buying up state owned industries at a low price, whilst keeping living standards, wages, civil liberties and employment rights so low as to maintain a cheap domestic labour force. The human cost has been felt most painfully in public health. The stipulations to cut spending on health, sanitation, and the development of water systems created a public health catastrophe in these nations. According to the World Health Organisation:
"In health, SAPs affect both the supply of health services (by insisting on cuts in health spending) and the demand for health services (by reducing household income, thus leaving people with less money for health). Studies have shown that SAPs policies have slowed down improvements in, or worsened, the health status of people in countries implementing them. The results reported include worse nutritional status of children, increased incidence of infectious diseases, and higher infant and maternal mortality rates."
The Structural Adjustment Programmes are now being rolled out across Europe, as Austerity Programmes. Central banks are lending to stabilise national economies which have been broken by the cost of bailing out other banks. The Central Banks make these funds contingent upon the national government imposing an Austerity Programme. This is SAP by another name.
So far we have seen democratic governments in Greece and Italy who refused to comply replaced with technocratic governments who will. Most recently in Cyprus the government was coerced into agreeing a direct confiscation of the personal wealth of its citizens to pay off debts run up by Banks.
The Results of Austerity
The countries which have adopted Austerity Programmes have seen their economies eviscerated. Any rational person assessing the performance of a model whose academic basis just got blown open, would surely reflect on the results so far.
The economy of Greece has shrunk every year for five years and the Austerity Programme has turned a financial crisis into a humanitarian crisis.
11% of the population now live in 'Extreme Material Deprivation' without enough food, heating, electricity or a telephone
The Church of Greece distributes 250,000 food rations daily and there has been an explosion in food rations
Unemployment is now over 27% and continues to rise each month, while youth unemployment is now over 59%.
This level of poverty has enabled a resurgent fascism. The Far Right Golden Dawn party now has 18 of the 300 seats in the Greek Parliament. Immigrants are being routinely assaulted and killed in racially motivated attacks. Just days ago, a group of 200 immigrant workers protesting six months of unpaid wages were fired upon by their bosses. The assault left twenty eight with gunshot wounds and it was a miracle that no one lost their life.
The Spanish economy will shrink again this year and has been shrinking throughout the Austerity programme.
Unemployment has hit a record 27.1% with youth unemployment at 55%.
Average household income has dropped by more than 10% in the last five years as wages have been depressed.
A recent Oxfam report warned that by "By 2022, some 18 million Spaniards, or 38% of the population, could be in poverty."
The UK Economy has been through a double dip recession since the bailout of 2008 and continues to undershoot growth forecasts by the OBR and the IMF.
Unemployment has risen to 7.9% with youth unemployment at 21.2%.
The Institute of Fiscal Studies (IFS) warns that the governments own figures state that 900,000 public sector jobs will be lost between 2010 and 2017. So far, more than 340,000 have gone.
Wages have fallen to their lowest in a decade.
According to the UK Essentials Index, inflation on the essential items that the poorest groups in the country buy has hit an eye watering 33%.
A string of assaults on the welfare state are estimated to push 600,000 children into poverty by the next general election in 2015.
Wider Europe
The Austerity programme has been an unmitigated disaster by all of its published metrics. It has failed to create growth and it has failed to reduce national debt. It has swapped the burden of consequence of the Financial Crisis from the Industry that caused it to ordinary people. The Red Cross has announced that the Austerity induced poverty across Europe has required it to launch its largest food aid programme since the Second World War. So when critics of Austerity suggest a class war might be afoot, it is worth reflecting on that point before dismissing their arguments out of hand.
Facts Don't Bother Fanatics
The key issue here is how the governments and individuals who have supported Austerity respond when the intellectual basis has been found bogus, the leading financial institutions argue against it and the results on the ground are so woeful.
In this case there is no sign of pause or reflection from the political leadership. Far from it, they are ordering full steam ahead as the ship meets the iceberg.
Mark Carney, the new Governor of the Bank of England has declared Britain a 'crisis country' alongside the Eurozone and Japan, and argued against the IMFs plea for a U Turn on Austerity.
Chancellor George Osborne has insisted he will 'stay the course' on Austerity – apparently regardless of the fact that puts the majority of the UK population on course for poverty and suffering.
UK Prime Minister David Cameron seems positively gleeful at the advancement of his austerity agenda, declaring there is 'no end in sight' for the programme of public sector cuts.
The political leadership have rejected the fact the evidence for Austerity has been undermined, they have rejected the criticism of the architects of Austerity itself and they have rejected the reality of its devastating results on the ground. These people are not rational, they are ideologues.
Without the intervention of the electorate, Austerity is here to stay. Anyone crossing their fingers that the logic of this argument will do anything to deter these Austerity fanatics needs to get real and fast. Austerity is a war on the welfare state and these bogus economic arguments are merely the sheep's clothing adorning the wolf. If we don't want to end up like Greece, Cyprus and Spain, then we should not follow our government over the same Austerity cliff that drove them into the dust.

Yesterday morning at the Magic Kingdom, Merida from Disney-PIXAR's Brave was officially made a Disney Princess during a special ceremony.

Mulan is not a princess
Joe Hogarty
I agree with you about Mulan not being a Princess. Mulan didn't marry a Prince, she married a General. Basically if you are a strong female role model (and animated) Disney will bend the rules. That being said, I found this on Wikipedia: "Disney Princesses were not chosen specifically for their royal titles, but rather for how well they fit into what Disney executives deemed "the Princess mythology." Mulan is an example of this concept; she has no familial ties to royalty, but is still included in the character list. Tinker Bell was once included under the same principle before it was decided she was not suited for the "mythology." She now stars in her own Disney franchise, the Disney Fairies."
WHAT happened to Alice? She should be there too??????????

M-Tech bumper help
2 Attachment(s)
Quick question, I would really appreciate some help.
I am purchasing an M-Tech bumper for my 2003 325xi. Instead of having the license plate attachment, is there a way to just get a piece of the black molding for the center?
So that I would have no black license plate molding, just the black molding strip across the bumper.
I want it to look like the attached picture of the silver car, and eliminate the license plate bracket in the other pic
Welcome and I see this is your first post. You will be able to answer a lot of your own questions if you search using the search tab in the menu. Chances are, any question you will have has been answered before. If not, then create a thread like you did.
That being said, they do offer a mod where you can put an adapter for your license plate right in that tow hitch square of your bumper so you can attach a front plate.
^ +1
Since you're new you should take the time to search a bit before making a thread. Welcome to the forum.
Thanks a lot guys I appreciate the help. Thanks for the advice, glad to be a part of the forums
I just ordered one and haven't received it so not sure about the fitment. But for other fanatics it seemed to have worked. See here: http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthr...927&highlight=

APRIL 23, 2007–Greg Gartner, president and C.E.O. of Gartner Studios, Inc., a leading producer of specialty desktop and traditional stationary products with headquarters in Stillwater, Minn., spoke to a near capacity crowd in the Riverview Ballroom of the University Center at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls.
Gartner was invited to speak as part of the Executive in Residence program, sponsored by the UWRF College of Business and Economics and Pierce-Pepin Cooperative Services.
In his presentation, "Failure Was Not An Option," Gartner told the audience about the importance of staying positive and using learning experiences to build platforms for personal success.
"There is no substitution for hard work and a good attitude," Gartner said. He noted that people should let their lives be guided by the question of "What would you do if you knew you could not fail?"
A former student at UWRF, Gartner congratulated the College of Business and Economics on its recent accreditation, and said that being back at UWRF was an incredible experience for him.
Telling the audience that there is no straight line to success, Gartner emphasized the importance in taking away knowledge from life experiences and using that knowledge in a way to positively impact your life.
"You can't unlearn what you know," Gartner said. "Nobody can take that away from you."
Gartner founded Gartner Studios, Inc. in 1998 and grew the business to $35 million in the first six years after starting the business in a spare room of his home. His first product was a line of self-print Christmas cards.
Today, the company offers more than 8,000 products that are sold in 15,000 retail outlets including Target, Office Depot, Staples, Michael's and Wal-Mart.

Yup. I switched back. I'm sure going to miss the extra pep, but my Cruze was having too many problems with the tune. Vince tried explaining that it was normal, but I'm sorry, I'm no dummy.
I originally had the occaisional P2097 - Post Catalyst Fuel Trim Over Limit. Vince sent me a 'fix tune' to take care of the code. Said it was nothing to worry about, and he's had 7 years of tuning experience to back it up. My response is, 'Why is no one else setting this code then?' It would happen on light cruising after some harder accelerations. I didn't think much of it.
Now, my check engine light came on today. After checking the codes via EZFlash, I now have not only the P2097, but 6 other codes. Fuel trim codes, Barometric codes, IAT codes, and Pressure codes. The turbo is functioning properly, I've already look into it. The turbo was my first guess.
I took the tune off and cleared the codes. I'm going to provide proof of the question everyone seems to have with the tune. 'Is fuel economy really better with the tune?'
My answer after driving 20 miles after reverting to stock tune, 'It's not looking good for Trifecta." I was able to maintain a 57mpg at 10inHg of vacuum while cruising in 4th (manual trans), which even with the 'Eco-tune' at the same vacuum, I only saw 38mpg. I'm going to test the mpg on stock tune tomorrow on my commute to work. I was able to achieve a best of 43.5mpg via tune, I'm going to see if I can beat it. I will post results.

Drag coefficient in a crystal suspension
Hassan, N.M.S., Khan, M.M.K., Rasul, M.G., & Rackemann, D.W. (2008) Drag coefficient in a crystal suspension. International Journal of Mechanical and Materials Engineering, 3(2), pp. 198-205.
Published Version
(PDF 178kB)
A single air bubble rising in xanthan gum crystal suspension has been studied experimentally. The suspension was made by different concentrations of xanthan gum solutions with 0.23 mm polystyrene crystal particles. Drag co-efficient data and a new correlation of drag coefficient is presented for spherical and nonspherical bubbles in non-Newtonian crystal suspension. The correlation is developed in terms of the Reynolds number, Re and the bubble shape factor, � (the ratio between the surface equivalent sphere diameter to the volume equivalent sphere diameter). The experimental drag coefficient was found to be consistent with this new predicted correlation and published data over the ranges, 0.1<Re< 200 and 1<�phi<2.5.

Hy guys, i'am new around here, i work as a freelancer for some years and recently started to take a look at Envato.
i have a question that couldn't find the answer, let's say that i want to make an after effects template to promote a phone or a tablet, am i allowed to film/shoot/recreate the specific user interface of the device and post it on the device, for example an iPhone promoting template in which the phone goes trough diffrent parts of the sistem ex: messaging browsing photo gallery
Hi the7arts,
Based on my experience in VH any usage of apple product's UI is prohibited because of apples "unique" copyright and your template will be rejected by VH reviewer. If you are forced to show something appearing in the screen it's best if it's your own graphic or CC material.
In my case I used snapshots of envato websites. http://bit.ly/122oM5c
Best of luck -Yasush
hy man, thanks for your replay, so i guess if i want to make something that relates to apple, android or anything else i have to make something my self that looks alike. I get that, but knowing that the end product would be something that helps them promote their product, i tought that i can use the UI from their products.
You can make something similar but with different naming and without their logos. Take a look at other iWhatever templates here and everything will be clearer

It was exactly the rallying cry you would expect from someone on the eve of his first Wimbledon quarter-final. "That statistic shows how good he is," Jo-Wilfried Tsonga said yesterday when told that Andy Murray, his opponent here this afternoon, had won his last 21 matches against French players. "It's just because he's better than all the French players. That's it. He has a better ranking and he's just a better player."
Tsonga was the last Frenchman to beat the Scot, having knocked him out en route to his only Grand Slam final at the 2008 Australian Open, and knows the size of his task. "I watched some of his match on Monday and he can play every shot," the world No 10 said. "He serves well, he has a good forehand and backhand, he is good on the baseline and the net. He can do everything."
Murray, in turn, will not underestimate the 25-year-old from Le Mans, an attacking player who loves playing on grass but, as the only man yet to drop a set here this year, Murray will start favourite to reach his second straight Wimbledon semi-final. In his last two matches in particular, the spark that took Murray to the Australian Open final five months ago has returned.
Just as Tsonga is looking forward to his first appearance on Centre Court – "You play for big moments like this," he said – so Murray relishes every chance to play there. They have taken their time, but the Wimbledon public have warmed to Murray with every match and he in turn has fed off their support.
"People make too much of the pressures of playing at Wimbledon," Murray said. "Tim Henman played his best tennis here throughout the years, without question. At the start of the event there are those nerves and that little bit of pressure that you need to get over – you can start a bit slowly in the first match – but once you get through it, you enjoy it. You have the home support and it makes you play a lot better."
He added: "You might be lonely on the court, but it's a good feeling. You have a lot of people there supporting you. It's lonely in a good way. For me, the tennis court is quite a relaxing place to be. That's what I'm comfortable doing. I've been playing tennis since I was a young boy. When you're out on the court it's where you learn to be comfortable.
"There are always nerves, but it's more of an excitement. I'm not scared of the situation. I'm not scared of who I'm playing. You're excited and it's great to be out on a court like that when the support is with you."
Tsonga comes from a sporting family. His father, Didier, who is now a science teacher, was a handball international, while Enzo, Jo-Wilfried's younger brother, plays basketball.
Tsonga may be better known in Britain for the incident that cost Carol Thatcher her job at the BBC last year – the daughter of the former prime minister made a backstage "golliwog" remark about him to the "One Show" presenter Adrian Chiles and a guest, Jo Brand – but his on-court success has made him a big name at home.
Murray remembers how Tsonga caught him cold in Melbourne two years ago, though the Scot believes the defeat helped make him a more consistent performer. "After losing that match, when I was expecting to do well in the tournament, I realised you can't go into events expecting to get to the second week or even the second round because you're a seeded player," Murray said. "You need to be ready right from the start."
How different does Murray think he is compared with the man who lost to Tsonga then? "I'm obviously a better player. I've played in a lot of big matches since then. I've been in the quarters and semis and finals of Slams since then."
Murray thinks he handles mid-match mini-crises much better these days, as he showed when digging his way out of trouble at the end of the first set against Sam Querrey on Monday. "With experience, you learn to deal with situations better; you learn how to manage your own game better, do what you feel comfortable with on the important points. When you're younger you go for a bit too much or make a silly mistake when you're behind. I definitely don't beat myself any more."
Tsonga said he would have to "be aggressive and be a bit lucky" to win today and is looking forward to the occasion. "I like sport like this, when there is a big atmosphere and when the public scream the names of players like Andy and myself," he said. "It's normal that the crowd will cheer for Andy, but I know they will be fair with me."
The Ali lookalike whose dad was at the 'Rumble'
Jo-Wilfried Tsonga tires of the references to him as a Muhammad Ali lookalike (click on 'more pictures', above). However, given that the Frenchman's father actually attended the "Rumble in the Jungle", when Ali beat George Foreman in Kinshasa in 1974, the comparisons are inevitable.
Tsonga's father, Didier, was born in Congo and lived in Brazzaville, which sits on the other side of the Congo River from Kinshasa. A handball international from a sporting family, he witnessed at first hand the most famous fight in history, when Ali regained the heavyweight world championship from Foreman using his "rope-a-dope" tactic of leaning back on the ropes and soaking up his opponent's punches. Didier took photographs of the fight, which his son now cherishes as souvenirs.
Jo-Wilfried's reluctance to talk about Ali was evident when he was asked about him en route to his appearance in the Australian Open final. Had he watched videos of his fights? "Of course, I've watched some DVDs," Tsonga said. Has Ali been an inspiration? "Maybe more now than when I was a child." How has he been an inspiration? "Maybe his personality on the court. Maybe I think I have the same tennis as his boxing." And what does he feel about the comparisons? "It's just an honour for me for me to be compared with him. That's all."

Murray v Tsonga: The previous meetings
2007 Metz
Murray won 6-3, 6-3
Murray was rebuilding his confidence and his world ranking after missing the French Open and Wimbledon with a wrist injury. The Scot broke Tsonga's serve four times in this quarter-final and forced a total of 14 break points before completing victory in just 73 minutes. He went on to lose to Tommy Robredo in the final.
2008 Australian Open
Tsonga won 7-5, 6-4, 0-6, 7-6
Murray had won the Qatar Open en route to Melbourne, but Tsonga's all-out attacking style caught the Scot cold in this first-round match. The unseeded Frenchman – who went on to beat Rafael Nadal in the semi before losing to Novak Djokovic in the final – mercilessly attacked Murray's second serve and hit a succession of big forehand winners.
2009 Montreal
Murray won 6-4, 7-6
This semi-final victory took Murray to No 2 in the world rankings, but it was a close match. Tsonga had two set points to take the contest into a decider but made too many mistakes to stop Murray, who played patiently throughout. Murray beat Juan Martin del Potro in the final.

Confessions of a 'Prude'
By Andrew Byers
February 4, 2013
Andrew Byers serves as chaplain at St. Mary's College, Durham. He is the author of TheoMedia: The Media of God and the Digital Age and ... Read More
I am all about my children learning new languages. They study French in school. And if they could add an Asian language to their repertoire, even better. So thanks to pop culture (more specifically, "K-pop"), my kids have gotten a head start. They already know at least two Korean colloquialisms: "Oppan" and "Gangnam."
No, they have not seen the "Gangnam Style" YouTube video. But they know the horse-trotting, lassoing and reign-snapping-style dance move, and they know the beat and the chorus (including the "oooh sexy lady" bit). They know all this because so many of their friends are among the 1.2 billion who have watched the video online.
The last thing I wanted is for them to think I was an inexperienced, sheltered, pious prude.
I know—it's relatively clean compared to most music videos. I know—the signature dance move is more silly than promiscuous. I know—the whole thing is all just for kicks.
But it's not the "Gangnam Style" dance moves that really bother me. I'm just not keen on my 8-year-old son wondering if it really is OK for a man to stare at the posterior of a lady doing her yoga routine (assuming it's yoga). I don't want my 10-year old daughter to think that those short-shorts are hip. And I don't want them to see that guy doing pelvic thrusts in an elevator over PSY's head.
Maybe you're thinking, "C'mon, don't be such a prude." And you wouldn't be the first.
We culture-savvy Christians recoil at the labels assigned to us by society. My wife and I have been noticing of late that few labels are more feared than those of "sheltered," "out-of-touch," or "prudish."
As a minister and a theological student (I have been both, off and on, for the past 15 years), the guys I used to work with in lumberyards and on construction crews would apologize after cussing in my presence. They would sometimes ask, after retelling some wild sexual escapade, "Oh, I'm sorry—does that offend you?" Their narratives of the night were full of filth (and probably a lot of fiction), but the pressure was on to say, "Oh, of course I'm not offended. Not at all." The last thing I wanted was for them to think I was an inexperienced, sheltered, pious prude.
Innocence is precious and preserving it is not a vice.
The Church has been so antagonistic to cultural winds that Christians of younger generations are quick to dissociate from our more fundamentalist forbearers. We are embarrassed that one of our denominations once tried to boycott Disney flicks. We are ashamed of all the judgmentalism directed toward anyone who fancies a tattoo. In an act of spiritual bravado, many of us Gen-Xers took the precious cassettes of our favorite rock bands and destroyed them as a religious rite in the name of Jesus. Today, many of us regret that moment of intense anti-cultural piety.
We do not want to be viewed anymore as anti-culture, anti-fun, anti-entertainment. We do not want to be labeled as holier-than-thou goody-goodies who can't stomach seeing a little flesh at the cinema, who can't handle a little language or innuendo on TV.
In this pendulum swing from being prudes to being libertines, though, is it possible that innocence is becoming a vice? Are we now regarding purity as a liability when it comes to reaching our culture? Is our willingness to be exposed to sexualized media a virtue?
Did Jesus say in Matthew 5:8, "Out-of-touch are the pure in heart," or did He call them "blessed"?
"Be wise as serpents, and as culture-savvy as the average viewer"? Or is it, "Be wise as serpents and innocent as doves"? (Matthew 10:16).
Pop culture is fun. A lot of it is harmless. My tween daughter regularly listens to her favorite boy-band sensation in the UK on our iPod (One Direction—oh yeah), and even my 2-year old daughter knows some of the dance moves to Beyoncé's "All the Single Ladies" (the hand motions, not so much the hip-swaying). My boys and I have lightsaber duels, and we all love catching the latest kid-friendly flicks.
But one day my daughter was terribly disturbed when a knight placed a blade at the throat of another character in one of the Shrek sequels. We had to turn the movie off, and I was annoyed at how ridiculous she was being. "Sweetheart, c'mon—it's only a silly movie." Don't be such a fuddy-duddy.
Then it hit me. After years of absorbing pop cultural entertainment, seeing a sword at a person's throat didn't really bother me. Maybe my daughter saw that scene more accurately than I did. Not unlike the citizens of the Capitol in Suzanne Collins' The Hunger Games trilogy, maybe I have been desensitized to harsh realities that are so casually caricatured in popular media.
My point is not that we should only watch movies starring Kirk Cameron. I'm not suggesting that "Gangnam Style" is the latest trickery unleashed by the devil to misguide the masses. I have no interest in promoting the trends of legalism, moralism and cultural irrelevance that the Church just can't seem to shake.
My point, rather, is that innocence is precious and that preserving it is not a vice. It is OK for us to be offended by the offensive. We are not to be moralistic, but we are called to be moral. Scripture beckons us to purity (Matthew 5:8), to wholesome speech (Ephesians 4:29), to honoring the sanctity of the marriage bed (Hebrews 13:4), to discerning good and evil (Romans 12:2). Somehow, we need to learn how to be culture-savvy and yet innocent as doves.
Maybe that's why Jesus paired the call to innocence with a call to wisdom.
When it comes to appropriating culture, the lines can be fuzzy. Paul acknowledged that some Christians in Rome and Corinth could handle certain cultural elements that other Christians needed to avoid. Some of my friends watch "Gangnam Style" with their kids and they are cool with it. For us to judge one another would be wrong.
Not all the lines are blurry, though. And it is OK to choose innocence, even if our decision to turn our eyes from the screen or to close our ears to obscenities potentially upsets the other viewers and auditors. I guess we could ask them, "Oh, I'm sorry—does that offend you?"
Of course, that question would probably be unhelpful. But our culture does not just need our participation—it also needs our loving protest. When Jesus called His disciples to innocence in Matthew 10, the occasion was His sending them out into culture. Innocence is not a virtue we practice by extracting ourselves from society. It is a virtue practiced while embedded within it—for our culture's own good.

Always, Always... Gospel will be against culture!!! And it has to be in this way!!! Well done sir.
I think consistent with what Jesus taught in John 17. I am often at a loss of words to explain even to fellow Christians why I might not watch a particular movie or show. I think the trick is to not appear self-righteous, but I suppose more could benefit from the example of being deliberate in one's choices.
This made me happy. As an academic working in Literature there is a lot of stuff out there I have to read for my job, but I am extremely choosy about what I expose myself to from choice in my leisure time. What surprised me most is that the academics have been much more accepting of the idea of protecting what you expose yourself to than the christians have. I really admire parents and teachers who encourage their children/students to remain open to sensitivity, to gut reaction, and to instinctively knowing when stuff isn't healthy for you, personally. It's an interesting topic.
You said: "Innocence is not a virtue we practice by extracting ourselves form society." This is so much how I grew up. I did not learn about the sin in the world and how to handle myself when I encountered it. So I embraced it and went wild. Counter to how my parents expected. My Christian roots brought me back down and my wisdom and faith has allowed me to live in the world showing other the right way to live. I broke the cycle to allow my kids "see" sin and talk about cause and effect so they can learn to avoid sin. It is a lot like in your post about listening to music, dancing, local home grown concerts. As a parent I have to be with them, SUPERVISE. I feel this is building wisdom before they become adults. This is so counter to some of my fellow Christian Moms and fellow church members. I'm glad to find folks that believe like I do.

Leah McFall is spending her last day in LA today, as she prepares to come home and debut her new music for the first time.
The Belfast born singer lost out on the chance to land a Universal record deal when Andrea Begley beat her on The Voice last month but luckily for her, she has a supporter in the form of Black Eyed Peas star Will.i.am.
The US rapper, singer and producer mentored Leah on the BBC show and while he was livid when she didn't win, he responded by whisking her off to America to start work on new songs with him in the studio.
The pair have penned both 'heart breaking' and 'hilarious' tunes according to their Twitter updates and this week we'll get to hear the results for the first time.
Both stars are heading back to London and Leah tweeted saying:
"Last day in LA 😢 this has been THEE most Incredible 2 weeks of my life thanks to @iamwill who hasnt stopped fighting for me&believing in me."
She also shared a picture of herself in the recording studio with the caption:
"This has been my home for the past 2 weeks – 💗💗 @recordplant"
Producer Jean Baptiste has been in the studio with the pair and tweeted:
"@leahmcfallmusic is literally making one of the best albums I've heard in years!!!!
My mind was totally blown away in the studio yesterday by @iamwill
How can he still be so hungry? Very inspirational!!!"
Former Voice contestant Tyler James revealed that Will and Leah wanted to have their material finished, so they could perform some of it together at this weekend's Wireless Festival. He told The Daily Star:
"She's [Leah] been in LA recording with Will this week and the plan is to have a new song in time for the Wireless Festival in a few weeks' time."
Will.i.am has been added to the lineup and will perform on Pepsi Max Stage in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, on Sunday 14th July.
We can't wait to hear their new tunes….can you? Leave your comments below….

BeCasso is a mobile app that enables users to transform photos into an oil paint look that is inspired by traditional painting elements. In contrast to stroke-based approaches, the app uses state-of-the-art nonlinear image filtering techniques based on smoothed structure information to interactively synthesize oil paint renderings with soft color transitions. BeCasso empowers users to easily create aesthetic oil paint renderings by implementing a two-fold strategy. First, it provides parameter presets that may serve as a starting point for a custom stylization based on global parameter adjustments. Second, it introduces a novel interaction approach that operates within the parameter spaces of the stylization effect to facilitate creative control over the visual output: on-screen painting enables users to locally adjust the appearance in image regions, e.g., to vary the level of abstraction, brush and stroke direction. This way, the app provides tools for both higher-level interaction and low-level control [Isenberg 2016] to serve the different needs of non-experts and digital artists.

Thanks to the group at my session this morning on the basics of SharePoint as a development platform. If you are a first-time visitor to my blog (based on this session) be sure to search on the 'SharePoint' tag to see all the links and resources that I referenced in my talk today – also check out the recorded geekSpeak shows on Channel 9.
Particular thanks to the two women who helped me get set up, since I was 'almost' late for presenting! 🙂
