DAY ELEVEN - The Warriors look for a historical upset tonight in Dallas over the top seeded Mavs and the Raptors try to hold off elimination on their home court against the Nets.
Nets at Raptors, 7:00 PM, TNT
Winner: Nets
Thoughts: I predicted the Nets would this series, but I was hoping we would see a more competitive effort from the Raptors. The young team seems all to content just to be in the playoffs and can't seem to match the intensity and focus of the more experienced Nets. Jason Kidd has been absolutely phenomenal in this series averaging a triple-double over four games, leading the way for his Nets. For the Raptors, however, Chris Bosh has struggled over the last two games, unable to find a rhythm against the double teams of the Nets. New Jersey has come out with more energy than Toronto can handle over the last two games and I expect them to close out the series tonight in similar fashion. Nets win.
Warriors at Mavericks, 9:30 PM, TNT
Winner: Mavericks
Thoughts: Avery Johnson has made the one 'adjustment' that could prove more valuable than any on court strategy - he publicly called out his star player,and the rest of his team's confidence. I've said it before and I can only reiterate it, Golden State isn't beating Dallas because they some super duper secret strategy that Avery Johnson can't figure out, basketball doesn't work that way. Dallas is losing because Avery's players won't respond to a challenge, won't get fired up, and have thoroughly been stripped of their confidence. So why the pick tonight for Dallas? Because I believe if Avery Johnson can do anything it's impute his own fire, intensity and competitive spirit into his basketball team. If Dirk and the Mavs don't respond tonight, they have no soul. I'm going out a limb here, but... Mavs win.

Segueing into Saturday after Friday's festivities, I came to the slow realization that my body can't quite handle these events like it used to. After a barrage of beat-driven acts on Friday, my goal on Saturday was to seek out a relaxing array of music throughout the day in preparation for the day's headliner, Bruce Springsteen.
One of the most pleasant surprises came in the form of a press exclusive performance by Nonesuch newbies, The Low Anthem. Combining the droning element of a pump organ and the subtle nuance of atmospheric tones, the band hit a perfect chord, especially the vocals, which were absolutely phenomenal and as pure as can be. Their debut Oh My God, Charlie Darwin will be making it into my hands as soon as the festival is finished, and I suggest it makes it into yours as well.
Now, for the record, I have always had an avid hatred for the music of Jimmy Buffett. I've stayed as far away as possible from hotel resorts that might pipe out his tunes as I check in, and you'd never find me in one of his Margaritaville restaurants. But I'd be lying if I said I didn't have a giant smile on my face during his set with Ilo Ferreira and the Coral Reef All-Stars. There is something mighty charming about the man in person. Whether you like Buffet's music or not, he knows how to make an audience feel good—and one can do nothing but commend that.

As Floridi states in his General Definition of Information (GDI), meaning is an essential element of information [
However, as Floridi lucidly points out, the clue for a consistent understanding of information concerns the very grounding of such meaning (which he addresses in terms of the Symbol Grounding Problem—[
We agree with Floridi in the importance of action for the emerging of meaning, though beyond the epistemic constraint of Floridi, we adopt a more existential stance close to the aforementioned Spinozist reflection, in which effectiveness of action, meaning and being are tightly linked. Floridi's solution to the grounding of meaning—through his "action based semantics" (
Finding a more robust ground for the concept of information might solve indeed the lack of common understanding of information throughout the sciences as we have discussed elsewhere [
It should neither be surprising that—as we show in
To this purpose, we adopt a viewpoint which can be understood from Spinoza's proposition, recalled at the beginning: an effective and contingent interaction constitutes an agency, a new being with respect to its underlying components, whose course(s) of action conforms its own
Reviewing the aspects of truthfulness drives to the need of overcoming some limitations of the standard approach to information, as articulated commonly into the syntactic, semantic and pragmatic dimensions. This endeavor is embraced in
Upon these roots in
In the
After roughly 35 years of development in the theories of self-organization and related variants (chaos, self-organized criticality and so forth), it is somewhat of a surprise that physics proper has not yet sufficiently found its entry into the ongoing quest for a precise concept of information. Hence, even the most optimistic volume of collected essays on what has often been called Unified Theory of Information, or UTI in short (edited by Hofkirchner in 1999 [
In fact, although the Vienna conference meeting took place in 1996 rather than 1999, this remark (and similar remarks as to that) do(es) not actually refer to the reality of ongoing research: As Seth Lloyd points out in his book from 2006 ([
This line of argument goes actually back as far as to John Wheeler in 1977 for whom "… [a] true observation of the physical world … must not only produce an indelible record, [but] somehow in part
Within the theories of quantum gravity, these aspects have gained even more pertinence. This is because the quantum viewpoint itself typically tends to conceptualize information (contrary to Haefner's assertion, mentioned above). As Carlo Rovelli has concluded: "… what precisely quantum mechanics is about is the information that physical systems have about one another" ([
It is especially in
As preliminary conclusions of all of this we can note the following:
(1) The physicist's quest for a unified theory from the outset (an enterprise in fact that already starts at the end of the 19th century) is the reason for the fact that the concept of information is always present in the sense that comparatively early it became necessary to map the physical processes involved by means of thermodynamical (and statistical) techniques. From the beginning on therefore, for Penrose, the entropy of a state is described as a measure of the volume of that compartment which contains the phase-space point which actually represents this very state ([
Hence, if a theory of cosmology must, as Smolin puts forward ([
(2) As it is obvious from the underlying intention of unified theories, they also refer to a kind of secularized grounding problem which in metaphysical philosophy is traditionally dealt with when talking about the concept of substance and its attributes [
But unfortunately, aside from the fact that Penrose is known officially as a serious Platonist (which is somewhat out of date to say the least), Hameroff does not share his modesty and claims that their results would point towards a philosophy of some "… funda-mental panexperiential view in which primitive experience exists at the Planck scale of spacetime geometry" ([
On the other hand, the same vagueness in Smolin's statement renders the whole approach to end up with a false idea: This is mainly so because it is not quite the task of physics to say what there actually is. And it is a mere claim that reality cannot depend on our existence (Because it is this very reality that produced us in the first place). But the main point is here that the concept of reality is far from clear: Because traditionally, reality refers to what the world is like in absolute truth but to what we cannot actually perceive at all, because the cognitive capacity of human beings is limited. Hence, the world as we see it is its modality, the world as it really is we call reality. Obviously, the former can only be an approximation to the latter. And this is what in the physics of quantum gravity we would also like to call approximation or emergence ([
Now, in order to
Much of what we have said in the introduction is the foundation for the results announced here earlier. The generic tendency of these results is already entailed in the role which is attributed to the concept of information when applied within the framework of fundamental physics. So, Floridi is certainly right when mentioning that "information can be said in many ways just as being can" and that "th[is] correlation is probably not accidental" ([
This is mainly so because the concept of meaning enters the discussion very early: For starting with a proper definition in the first place, it is immediately part of what Floridi calls the
Taking into account Floridi's Method of the
In sum, Floridi's approach may be appropriate if restricted to the case of
All this drives us to reject two fundamental aspects of Floridi's account in order to properly generalize the understanding of information—as the GDI seems to intend:
(1) The intrinsic
(2) The exclusively
Hence by unveiling the implicit intension of meaning, we observe that Floridi's
Coming back to the relation between
Concerning the
As to the concept of meaning we find this line of argument confirmed from time to time, if often only as a side-remark. Seth Lloyd, e.g., is quite clear with respect to meaning: "If you adopt Wittgenstein's perspective that the meaning of a piece of information is to be found in the action this information provokes, the meaning of a computer program written in a particular computer language is to be found in the actions the computer performs as it interprets that program" ([
This has an interesting consequence: A loop in the above sense fulfills what Stuart Kauffman calls the criteria for
Hence, we can live with Floridi's formulations of
Concerning Floridi's rejection of
But alethic neutrality refers also to information processes not only linked to false information, but to extensional emptiness. This is for instance the case of biological preadaptations in which (as described by S. Kauffman [
Summing up, though we would like to stay with the GDI, another interpretation has to be chosen in order to embrace the real diversity of information adequately. In fact, what we would aim at can be illustrated in more detail when looking at the catalogue of main concepts assembled in the handbook edited by Floridi on philosophy of computing and information [
Hence, in order to summarize, we can state that the GDI is confirmed as to the emergence of meaning which is visualized as a concept to be handled parallel when dealing with information: Information is always meaningful indeed, and it is the emergence of an
Before coming back to our main topic, let us have a short look onto the conventional structure of what we may call "standard approach" to information. A useful survey is given e.g., by Lyre [
Starting then from the probability viewpoint of information (chiefly pointing to
The consequence for physics is that usually the state function (in quantum theory) represents (quantum) information, and it can also be understood as a catalogue of possible configurations of matter, which does not unfold all its possible dynamical states (in a classical sense). It rather represents all the possible observations. That is: On the one hand, physical objects can be completely characterized in terms of the number of elections (not to be understood in intentional sense) that are needed for reaching its actual state in the organization of matter from a given starting point; this can be regarded as actual information in a clear ontological sense. (This is what is behind Wheeler's "It from Bit" [
As referred to in
The same is true for biology, because the activities of the DNA structural network (following the reactive chain: DNA replication → transcription → RNA → translation → polypeptide) demonstrate that the semantic aspect of genetic information lies in the functionality of produced proteins. In other words: The syntactic structure of a nucleotide sequence is well-formed and meaningful, because it exhibits well-defined interactions within the cell and with respect to a given environment. Note that this meaning is being recovered by the sequences as to initiating their functions, but
More recently, Barbieri [
Barbieri calls epigenesis a convergent increase of complexity, in the sense that its outcome is neither random nor unexpected ([
Although Frank's approach is essentially one of discussing the literary discourse, it is also relevant for a wider context which covers the relationship between information and meaning in nature in general. This is mainly so, because Frank states at the very beginning of his first significant work on this topic ([
The crucial point is that all what we have said so far is said exclusively in terms of the modeling done by human reflexion. Hence, if Stonier formulates: "Energy is the capacity to perform work. Information is the capacity to organize a system by utilizing work." ([
Hence, the Universe is meaningful from the beginning. Meaning emerges alongside with information, together with energy, at the Big Bang. Subsequently, the evolution of meaning is characterized then by emergent steps of the development of complexity. The preliminarily crucial step is being initiated by the emergence of reflexive (or: Self-reflexive) meaning as exhibited by human beings (
And why do we think to conceptually solve
A similar differentiation we would like to claim for the concept of
Note that in quantum gravity, the Hamiltonian constraint which acts on states made from Wilson loops and which can be solved therefore by spin network states, mirrors a similar relationship, because it actually reflects what is called the Wheeler-De Witt equation which is the Schroedinger equation for the wave function of the universe whose essence is that this wave function is time-independent. Hence, the universe as a whole does not change in time: "The resolution of this paradox [as suggested by De Witt] is rather instructive", as Andrei Linde states ([
This leads us somewhat back to the metaphysical aspects as discussed earlier. And there is a semiotic turn to this: In 1982, Wildgen [
It is interesting to note that Thom's linguistic approach goes actually back to an early meeting on (mathematical) dynamical systems [
With a view to information, a stable configuration of Thom's chreods is what defines observable objects or settings of such objects in a much more dynamical and evolutionary sense of observables than Floridi's account (as discussed in
But most important in the first place is the fact that the above-mentioned is also true for situations that do not deal with human (interpretative) cognition exclusively: Thom's famous example deals with the predator-prey model within the animal kingdom. The essential idea is to identify the interaction taking place in some geographical space with the topological structure of that space which becomes then some abstract state space. One can classify then the various types of interaction according to the types of topologies in state space. By doing so, catalogues of logoi turn out to be dynamic-generative by themselves ([
We intended at the beginning to find a better ground for the emergence of meaning than the one offered by Floridi as to support his GDI. Being essentially in agreement with his definition, we found several aspects of his approach improperly grounded, as extensively argued in
This provides a significantly different substrate, as the one utilized by Floridi, for the understanding of how meaning emerges and evolves in a progressive perspective, as discussed in

), which in several aspects follows Ursul's viewpoint, we do not consider information as mere heterogeneity in reality that can gain meaning later on when observation comes into existence.

National Survey reveals a Casual Academic workforce struggling to make a living and do their job
A national survey of casual academic staff in Australian universities has revealed a workforce struggling to make a living and do their job with the resources they are given.
Nearly 1500 individuals responded to the NTEU's survey conducted earlier this year and open to all casual academic and research staff regardless of union affiliation.
"The findings from this survey, one of the largest undertaken in Australia, are extremely alarming," said Jeannie Rea, NTEU National President.
"A large number of casual academics are struggling to put together an income, with many having had more than one appointment during the survey period and a significant number having as many as four separate jobs in multiple universities."
"The majority of survey respondents work over and above what they are paid for. Many indicated they did not have access to the resources necessary to do their job properly.
"This is of particular concern given that more than half of all undergraduate teaching in our universities is carried out by casual academic staff. This has implications for the quality of undergraduate education."
"The survey also explodes the myth constructed by many in university management, that staff appreciated casual working arrangements because it gives them flexibility," said Rea.
"The majority of survey respondents aspire to a full time academic career. Many are trapped, however, in a succession of insecure, stressful, temporary work arrangements that have harmful financial and physical impacts."
"I continually hear stories from talented young academics that have left the sector because they have had enough of the stress involved and feel there is no possibility of a stable career in higher education."
"It's a major waste of talent which cannot afford."

Unfortunately, your experience is far too widespread. The union is trying to improve the situation, but it is a hard slog.
In the bargaining round, we improved pay through the normal increase, achieving an increase in the leave loading, and ensuring that marking is paid separately. We also tried to establish career entry positions in universities called 'Early Career Fellowships'. Unfortunately, this has not substantially changed the dynamic.
This time around, we are seeking to create 2,000 new Scholarly Teaching Fellows across the country which are intended to convert casual labour into more secure employment,
The economics of the sector and a lack of a real commitment to develop future academics by our universities, are both contributing to the problem. Under budget pressure, local departmental heads make decisions to replace existing continuing work with casual work to help balance the budget. These local decisions aggregate and creates a sector wide problem.
This is also one of the reasons the union continues to argue for more funding for the sector as well as pushing our employers in bargaining.
I realise none of this solves your current situation in the short run, but you can play a role in helping the union pursue these issues by getting in touch with your local branch. The union is only as effective as our members and we need more members willing to tell us their stories and to help build the case for change.

It was farily unusual for the coroner to be a doctor - he was often a
solicitor or just a clerical official, who took evidence from a doctor.
The dying woman was presumably taken to the Workhouse infirmary for
treatment (because she was a poor person) but she died afterwards and
she was buried as a pauper. If the cause of death was obvious and
external, there would not necessarily have been an autopsy - only if the
casue was, say, poisoning, and difficult to determine from external
Inquests were normally held very quickly then - and had to be in public.
So the body could be present, as in the case of a drowned man, or
somewhere adjacent in case the cause was dispited. The jury would
usually view it anyway. - your case must have attracted a lot of public
interest,. so a large room was needed for the inquest.

Jeffery returns to stage as Emily Dickinson
November 14, 2012
WHO: Paul Emery Music presents The Belle of Amherst
WHEN: Thursday, Nov. 8 – Sunday, Nov. 11
Showtimes: 7 p.m. Thursday, 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 2 p.m. Sunday
WHERE: Nevada Theatre, 401 Broad St., Nevada City
TICKETS: Thursday and Sunday $15, Friday and Saturday $20
Tickets available at BriarPatch Co-op, Nevada City Box Office, (530) 265-5462 or online at http://www.nevadacityboxoffice.org
Acclaimed local actress Marion Jeffery returns to the stage for one weekend only, Thursday through Sunday, to offer her extraordinary performance as Emily Dickinson in "The Belle of Amherst." This tour-de-force one-woman show is the final production in Paul Emery's "Our Town Fall Theatre Series" at the Nevada Theatre in Nevada City.
Based on Dickinson's writings, this inspiring Tony Award-winning play by William Luce illuminates one of America's greatest and most loved literary figures. In this exquisite portrayal we discover not the dowdy, repressed Dickinson, so often represented in early biographies, but a woman full of life, offering radical and often humorous perspectives on expectation, love and ambition.
She welcomes us into her home with a slice of her famous black cake and is soon gossiping as if we were old friends, revealing much about her family, her priorities, her loves and losses,and her struggles to become a published poet. Along the way, the deep inspiration for her writing is made clear, and her poetry is made plain.
Jeffery, along with director Sheila O'Connor and producer Julie Cobden, first performed "The Belle of Amherst" in 2010 at the Center for the Arts. The production was met with overwhelmingly positive reviews and audiences raving, "Can't remember having seen a finer actress. Almost like this show was made for her" and "… I saw it last night, and I have been talking about it to everyone! Even dreamt I was telling a greeter in a drug store to let any tourists know about it!" Jeffery followed up her performance with a three-week engagement in Harpswell, Maine, at Centennial Hall, produced by Bill Bergquist and John Bush.
Dickinson's words are still relevant in today's world and Marion's performance is nothing short of magical — a must see for theater and literary lovers, or anyone who dwells in possibility.

Hurricane Sandy
Our thoughts and prayers this morning are with the families affected by the storm.
It can be gut-wrenching to see the reports of what's happening and feel like you can't do anything to help.
But it's important to remember that you really can: Relief organizations like the American Red Cross are on the ground right now in all the communities affected by the storm, and making a financial contribution to those efforts is the most effective way to help those in need.
So, if you'd like to help, please give to the American Red Cross right now.
Soon enough we'll need to get back to work on the most important campaign of our lifetime.
But the most important thing at this moment is that you and your loved ones are staying safe, and that the rest of us do what we can to help speed the recovery.
Thank you.

Negative Camber
So my brother backed up into my car the other day. He just started learning how to drive.... He somehow happened to only hit my rear left tire. Went to go get an alignment done but the guy said he can't pull it out any further. So I'm sitting at around -4 camber. He told me I would have to get some aftermarket adjustable control arms. Any suggestions guys? Thanks
Something is bent...you'll probably need a better indy shop to tell you exactly what, unless you can post a pic from underneath.

If you make and sell cars for a living, there are two good ways to tell how well your car is doing:
Most people would see that as a failure. Sales guys, ever the optimists, see it as an opportunity.
So Toyota has begun a Venza marketing campaign that specifically targets older buys, the people who actually buy new vehicles in greater numbers. One ad (above) shows a young woman at home tending to her online "life" and making fun of her parents for their lack of Facebook "friends. Meanwhile, we see Mom and Dad out in their Venza, pulling out their mountain bikes to do those outdoorsy, adventuresome things that Baby Boomers and their ilk do to show they are aging but not "old."
Venza is a Camry-based crossover utility (using some of Highlander's front mechanical bits), sleeker and more stylish than some, that should be a direct rival to the Ford Edge, but for Venza's lack of recognition.
Timing was everything:
Venza hit the market in December 2008 -- right about when people were beginning to wonder if the bottom ever would quit falling out of the economy.
The next year, you might recall, was when General Motors and Chrysler both went into Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization, saved only by tens of billions of dollars in taxpayer bailout loans that never will be fully repaid. But, then, several hundred thousand people kept their jobs because GM and Chrysler survived. And Fiat took over Chrysler, which should give us those interesting Italian cars, albeit sometimes built and sold as Chrysler Group models.

A week and a half ago, we had the pleasure of premiering a brilliant new song, "Flip a Coin", from the gifted Nashville singer-songwriter Jillette Johnson. As we thought so highly of that song, we're bringing you the stream of her new album, All I Ever See in You Is Me, releasing this Friday via Rounder Records.
Latest Blog Posts
Quirky and skillful sextet the Curls may only be a few years old, but they're quickly illustrating why Chicago is a major breeding ground for creative, idiosyncratic, and fearless music. Originally conceived as a "minimalist psych/folk project for singer/songwriter Mick [last name unknown]", the band now sees itself as a "constantly evolving art rock entertainment content conglomerate" that endearingly blends bits of jazz, "new wave, psych, pop and prog rock" into refreshingly peculiar and sophisticated gems. Their latest track, "Prickly Feelings" (from upcoming LP SUPER UNIT), does an excellent job of showcasing their playful aesthetic.
Legendary synthpop duo Erasure returned with their 17th studio album this year and are showing no signs of slowing down as they continue to release compelling music year after year. Really anything synthpop god Vince Clarke does is worthy of notice and Andy Bell's voice is as gorgeous and emotive as always.
Jeff Beck once said of the Legendary Shack Shakers that they were "a cross between the Yard Birds and the Sex Pistols", which sounds just about right. Legendary Shack Shakers have always channeled the energy and rawness of punk into their rockabilly and psychobilly drenched music. It's an irresistible mixture. On their latest album, After You've Gone releasing August 25th via Last Chance Records, the band ratchets up the lo-fi elements while exploring the aftermath and pain of marital breakdown and divorce.
Concept albums are old news, concept identities are where it's at. Louise Chicoine is the agile voice behind the 'fictional diva' Banny Grove, an alter-ego constructed with guitarist/keyboardist Peter Nichols. The LA-based duo originally hail from Vermont, and while those roots make it tempting to look for any traces of a Phish-y sense of humor, their new Cars in Control EP is much more a product of, and response to, Southern California's bright sprawling artifice.
Banny Grove debuted last year with an album that asked Who Is She?, but Cars in Control is more inclined to keep offering curious clues than answer such questions. The title track goes after "the oil man" with spare synthpop abstraction. "Baby" rides an unblinking combination of plucked harp and post-ironic autotune. "Trash Truck", which is "sung from the optimistic perspective of a child living underground when the surface world is an unseen desert of garbage", winds strands of Christmas lights around the Cure's "Kyoto Song". The EP is out August 8th via Nicey Music.

Deputies reopen S. Flores and Nueva intersection
Updated 6:45 am, Wednesday, September 18, 2013
SAN ANTONIO — A Bexar County courthouse security deputy conducting a routine patrol spotted what looked to be a suspicious package Tuesday morning, which resulted in the immediate area being shut down so that officials could investigate.
The package, described as about 6 inches by 8 inches and tightly wrapped, was located on top of a self pay station on the first floor of the Bexar County Parking Garage, according to Laura Jesse, a spokeswoman for Bexar County.
After the package was discovered at 7:20 a.m. the area around the parking garage was cordoned off; the entrance nearest to S. Flores and W. Nueva streets was the area of most concern because of the package.
News Channel
The parking garage also houses human resources offices on the southern end of the building. All HR employees evacuated the building as a precaution.
To respond to the threat, the sheriff's office brought in a bomb sniffing dog to check out the area around the package. Jesse said that the dog didn't detect anything after sweeping through the area and that the package was likely left over food.
Jurors and other pedestrians were still able to enter and exit the courthouse throughout the ordeal, unimpeded for the most part, except for having to park farther away than normal.
By 8:40 a.m. the police tape had been taken down and the area considered secure, and by 8:50 a.m. pedestrians were moving through the crosswalks and cars were rushing into the parking garage.

Starting issue (new one for me)
So this is my first time posting here, though I have lurked here for a while.
This one is confusing me, mainly because I have never had this issue with any vehicle.
I got my 84 bmw 528e from my dad, after he got tired of trying to repair the butchery that the last owner did. Been throwing parts at it, and finally got it running great, 3 months later...
Starting with some background, ive replaced the secondary pump, and stopped there after the problem that originally happened, well...happened.
On the return leg of a short trip the car stalled on me. Which it never does. Tried to restart, cranks, and then as soon as the engine "asks" for fuel I hear a loud "clicking" type of noise.
I further verified it by pressing down on the gas pedal a second after the engine starts cranking, soon as the gas pedal is pressed a loud "click".
any ideas would be great, its not the usual battery or fuel pump problem.
thanks all, kinda lost on this one

It's easy for guys who've been in game for a long time to get into a groove and develop a comfort zone. Maybe you'll only go to a certain area of town vs another. Maybe you prefer a certain bar where you're well known and popular with the staff. You could make it a point to only meet girls out and go for a one night stand over a proper date. Or you could prefer to invite women over rather than meeting them out while out on the town. Whatever the case is you've developed a certain pattern and style to your game that will optimize the chances of you being successful with whatever your goal is with women. The only thing is the chances of you meeting a more attractive girl than the ones that usually hangout in that comfort zone are slim.
But to truly know game means you will have to step out of your game comfort zone and experience things you're not used to. By the end of 2013 and most of this year I've been out on more dates with different women than I have been in the last five years put together. I've had more success but what the increase in traffic has forced me to do is truly reevaluate all my weaknesses with women. I've had to work better on my txt game in setting up dates, picking a venue or venue change based on my date rather than a go to routine, be more patient for sex but not be too relaxed and seemed not interested.
For example I was used to getting the notch on the first or second date but eventually a met a girl and it went into the fourth date and eventually fifth date. This was new territory for me and I begin to second guess my moves, mistakes were made and missed major warning signs. I once went on a date with a girl who had to be up early for a long drive out of town to see her parents the next day. I stuck to my script of a nice sushi dinner then after went to a crowded busy lounge instead of low key impressive hotel bar that was just across the street. I wasn't reading her body language and the fact that she wasn't looking for a loud night out but to just to chill lead to me blowing it. While out with another girl I tried too hard to demonstrate higher value and talked about not dating American girls seriously in a few years. She got pretty silent and that's basically when it hit me that I just trashed American girls on not making good girlfriends (that one was kinda funny though). Another time I got caught up listening to a girl's sob story so I let my guard down. It took me a while to figure out she was a user something that I pride myself on never letting happen.
As a result of stepping out of my comfort zone I've experienced some failures. But the thing is my game has gotten better, like I've been working at a higher level preparing myself for something greater. Slowly but surely the talent level of the girls I'm dating have gone up a few points. I'm getting better results with a better talent level. Staying in your player comfort zone is an easy way to plateau. Most guys think if they move to a better fancier part of town where the action is they'll just automatically get more/ hotter women. Some guys think if they get that next raise and more money, better car, fancy clothes they'll be able to pull hotter women. It's none of that. It's about testing your game against the unknown until the unknown becomes familiar. If it's going out on more dates, running day game and practicing approaching women outside, joining a group or taking class that will put you in a different social circle you don't usually run with. All of these things are things to get out of what's comfortable and stretch your game. If you can think of one way to get out of your comfort zone and work it past the initial failure stage you'll be surprised how fast your game will improve.

Kourou, French Guiana (ESA) Nov 11, 2013
Payload preparations for Arianespace's next heavy-lift mission are ready to move into gear as the ASTRA 5B satellite has arrived in French Guiana.
ASTRA 5B - which Arianespace will launch for Luxembourg-based operator SES - was delivered by an An-124 cargo aircraft to the Felix Eboue Airport near Cayenne this week, approximately one month prior to its targeted December 6 liftoff date with co-passenger Amazonas 4A.
The Astrium-produced spacecraft's specialized shipping container was unloaded - aided by the aircraft's "kneeling" capability - and then prepared for road transport to the Spaceport, which is located some 65 kilometers away in Kourou.
ASTRA 5B will extend SES' transponder capacity and geographical reach over Eastern Europe and neighboring markets, delivering direct-to-home, direct-to-cable and contribution feeds to digital terrestrial television networks. It also carries a hosted L-band payload for the European Commission's European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS).
As the upper passenger for Arianespace's next heavy-lift mission, ASTRA 5B's estimated liftoff mass is 5,800 kg., and it will operate from an orbital position of 31.5 deg. East.
With a launch mass of 3,000 kg., Amazonas 4A will join ASTRA 5B on Arianespace Flight VA216 in the lower position of the "payload stack." This spacecraft - to be located at an orbital position of 61 deg. West - will provide enhanced relay capacity over Latin America and an extended range of communications and television services for operator HISPASAT.
Designated VA216 in the company's numbering system, this liftoff represents the 216th flight of an Ariane-series vehicle, as well as the fifth heavy-lift launch this year. On its four 2013 missions to date, Ariane 5 has successfully orbited seven payloads with a combined total payload lift performance of more than 50,000 kg.

Lynn American history prof was visiting scholar at West Point
Published Mar. 22, 2011
Robert Watson, Lynn University American studies professor in the College of Liberal Education, recently returned from West Point where he taught at the U.S. Military Academy as a visiting scholar.
"The place is incredible and it oozes history," said Watson. "Custer, Robert E. Lee, Grant, Pershing, Eisenhower and MacArthur were all part of the Academy."
During his three-and-a-half day tenure there, Watson taught three undergraduate classes, gave a speech, met with cadets and faculty members, even ate with the cadets in the mess hall, and observed them in full dress on parade.
During his visit, Watson Focused on two lessons with the cadets:
Examine the intersection of politics and military command.
Watson discussed the lessons from Lincoln's firing of General George McClellan, Truman's firing of General Douglas MacArthur and Obama's firing of General Stanley McChrystal – all during times of war. According to Watson, the decisions were difficult but necessary. There are lessons military commanders must know about respecting their commander-in-chief and adhering to the notion of civilian control over the military.
Explore George Washington's development as a commander and leader. Watson discussed Washington's inglorious mistakes as an officer in the Jumonville Affair and Fort Necessity disasters, but his craftiness as seen in the crossing of the Delaware.
"The cadets were an absolute delight to teach," said Watson, "although it was tough to get used to students standing at attention when you enter the classroom and answering questions with 'sir, yes sir!'"
More on Watson:
Robert Watson is a professor, author, media commentator and community activist who joined the faculty of Lynn in 2007 after spending 15 years teaching at other universities around the country. He has published more than 30 books and hundreds of scholarly articles, book chapters, encyclopedia essays and newspaper columns. His work in the community also includes founding and directing Think Act Lead, a non-profit think tank established as a free community service and dedicated to civic education and political reform.
Aside from West Point, Watson has been a visiting scholar at nearly a dozen other universities, including New England College, Eastern Illinois, University of Southern Mississippi and James Madison University, among others. In addition, Watson has been a visiting scholar at historic sites including: the Truman Presidential Library, Mount Rushmore National Memorial and Calvin Coolidge Memorial Foundation and home.
Watson is frequently interviewed about campaigns and elections by local and national TV, print and radio media outlets, including CNN, MSNBC, USA Today and The New York Times. Watson also serves as the official political analyst for WPTV Channel 5 (NBC), WIOD 610 News Radio and WFTL 850 Talk Radio. He offers a weekly political roundup for WBZT 1230 on Clear Channel and writes a regular column on politics for the Sun Sentinel.

Veteran BBC broadcaster Stuart Hall is due to appear in court after he was charged with rape and a series of indecent assaults.
Hall is to go before Preston Magistrates' Court after being charged with the offences last month.
The 83-year-old is accused of one count of rape allegedly committed in 1976 against a 22-year-old woman and 14 offences of indecent assault against 10 girls aged between nine and 16 which allegedly took place between 1967 and 1986.
He has been a familiar face and voice in British broadcasting for half a century and was last year awarded an OBE in the New Year Honours.
The father-of-two, from Wilmslow, Cheshire, maintains his "total innocence" of all charges.
Hall's lawyer Louise Straw claims he is the victim of a "pursuit of celebrity".
She said: "These are all denied.
"None of the complainants thought fit to report any of these matters over the last three to four decades."
The former It's a Knockout presenter and Radio 5 Live sports reporter has been a familiar face and voice in entertainment for half a century and was last year awarded an OBE for services to broadcasting and charity work.
His eccentric football match reports have made him a cult figure among listeners on BBC Radio 5 Live who tune in to hear his unusual and amusing style.
Hall and wife Hazel have grown-up children, Daniel, 50, and 52-year-old Francesca.
The BBC has said he would not be working at the corporation while he faced the sex abuse allegations.

Valve Aims to Fill "Void" in PC Hardware Market, Calls Out Enthusiast Vendors
Jason Mick

Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Job posting hints at novel peripherals, but full plans are anyone's guess
While precise numbers are hard to come by,
recent reports
pin PC game sales in the 30-40 million unit range, well off their
peak levels of 1999
. With more and more gamers opting for consoles over gaming PCs, and with the additional pressures of piracy, many smaller developers have been forced to jump ship to mobile devices or consoles. The result has been a general contraction in enthusiast hardware demand, which has led some companies to
scale back the scope of their product lines
Amidst that backdrop grizzled veteran PC gamemaker Valve, owners of the
Steam digital distribution service
, surprised many by announcing its intent to enter into the PC gaming/enthusiast hardware space.
The announcement came in a roundabout sort of way, when Valve posted
a job listing
dubbed "Industrial Designer". In the job details lies a juicy nugget:
Open platforms like the PC and Mac are important to us, as they enable us and our partners to have a robust and direct relationship with customers. We're frustrated by the lack of innovation in the computer hardware space though, so we're jumping in. Even basic input, the keyboard and mouse, haven't really changed in any meaningful way over the years. There's a real void in the marketplace, and opportunities to create compelling user experiences are being overlooked.
While about as unambiguous as possible about Valve's determination to become a hardware player, the real question is what exactly it will produce.
Valve is entering the hardware market, but the question remains what it will opt to produce.

A low-hanging fruit could perhaps be customer PC gaming controllers/peripherals playing off Valve's beloved franchises --
Half Life
, etc. -- a possibility suggested by the "basic input, the keyboard and mouse" part. Still, the ambiguity has encouraged some to let their imagination run wild -- suggesting Valve may even be looking to
come up with a console
Valve recently drew mixed reactions when its President
voiced his displeasure
with Windows 8 despite the fact that the operating system
packs in DirectX 11.1
and a
plethora of performance improvements
. Valve traditionally made games exclusively for Windows PCs, but
recent migrated to the Mac
as well. Likewise, its accusation that peripheral makers lack creativity may ruffle some feathers; after all some
companies like OCZ
toyed with brain-"mice"
-- thought controlled input devices.
But Valve does have one thing right. The I/O space has yet to see such an innovative controller device catch on in a big way ("brain mice" have been released, but have been a low-volume niche product). Most PC gamers still use the same thing they did a decade and a half ago -- a mouse and keyboard. The question facing Valve is whether it will be able to use its market clout to change that situation.
"So far we have not seen a single Android device that does not infringe on our patents." -- Microsoft General Counsel Brad Smith

I'm scheduled for explant on Feb 4! My right breast always hurt and feels like they're straining my neck and back. I have 400 silicone Mentor implants, over the muscle. I'm so excited to get my normal breast back! I'm 5'7" and 130 pounds. Breast size 34 D-DD I'll post the before pic now and after when the procedure is over. I can honestly say if it wasn't for this site I don't think I would have the balls to do this! Thank you!!

So my new explant date is March 4th! I'm excited and nervous. Hope everything goes well. I look at this site everyday for inspiration! I'm also calling Mentor, the implant makers to see about a 1,200 dollar compensation for my possibly ruptured right implant. Read your paperwork! Either way I'm so excited to get these bags out of my body. Thanks all!

Hi ladies! My not so fun bags are coming out in 6 days! March 4th. I'll post after pics when I can. I'm so excited (and a little nervous). I check this site all the time for inspiration and I really appreciate all the stories, pictures and comments.

They're out! I have drains in. Not much pain and relaxing. The right implant had ruptured and both implants had a lot of scar tissue. I am overjoyed they are finally out. I'm wrapped up tight and as soon as I can I will update a picture. Thank you everybody for your kind posts! This website is awesome!

These are the pics after taking bandage off for first time. They're pushed flat from the bandage. A little shocking at first but I know they'll look better over time. I'm already off pain mess just have the annoying drains.

I can't sleep so I'm stalking the boob site. I was feeling a bit down earlier because of all the restrictions... Can't hold my 2 year old and he doesn't understand and my husband got on my nerves. I think it's the letdown effect after any surgery. I might get my drains out tomorrow yay. Every time I check back here I'm so encouraged and amazed by the amount of women deciding for permanent implant removal. I'm not against them at all and I know a few friend that love theirs. I just don't think there is enough testing and follow up to qualify implants as safe for all women. It's such a huge money maker I doubt that will change anytime soon. So for now it's nice to have this forum to share and I appreciate all the pics and stories.

Hi ladies! It's been 2 weeks since explant and all is good. I finally feel back to my self. My back and neck pain is going away and I'm moving around a lot more. It was a rough 2 weeks but there's light at the end of the tunnel. My breasts look the same as the last pic so no new photos. I'm still wrapped tight for one more week. That's the most frustrating part. Did anybody else have to be wrapped like a mummy for more than a few days? Anyhow, can't wait for next week I can exercise and I'm sure ill feel even better. HugS to all of you and thanks for your support!

Hi all! Just an update. I feel great with tons of energy. My boobs are healing nicely. I saw the ps today and h e says they look great. I'm so glad I had my implants removed!

Hi ladies! It's been 9 weeks since explant. I feel amazing! Working out everyday and not tired and achy anymore. I am so glad I removed the bags! I don't obsess over my boobs anymore so I don't come on here much anymore. Thanks again to all of you that encouraged me along the way. :)))
Feeling great!
Hi ladies! I'm almost 3 months post op breast explant removal and capsulectomy. It's like I've I've gained 10 years back to my health. My back and neck and general overall health is almost back to what it was in my 20's. it did take about 6 weeks to feel the positive effects of getting the implants removed. It was around week 2 I was emotional and wished I hadn't had them removed. It's a very emotional experience. I felt like I had a masectomy or something. The first 3 weeks was exhausting. Now, I feel amazing. It's like a whole new person. My joints don't ache, I'm not so foggy and the fatigue is just about gone. I have a 2 year old so some fatigue is normal haha! My breasts aren't perfect but honestly they never were. There is some loose skin when I raise my arms but I'll take it any day over the horrible aches and pains and depression I had prior to removal. I'm actually working out at the gym again and loving it. I hope if anyone is having problems with their implants they get them out ASAP and just learn to love yourself and accept your flaws and learn to love them. That's what I'm focusing on everyday! Thanks again to all the beautiful ladies that shared their stories and pics. That's the only reason I had the balls to remove my implants! You guys are brave as they come! Xoxo
6 months out!
I'm 6 months out from breast implant removal and feel great! I'm happy with my decision and feel happy and healthy. No more neck and back pain. My clothes fit better and bras are easier to find. Thanks for all the pictures and stories. Without I wouldn't have been able to do it!
I had many friends say he is the best. So far, I agree!

Reviews for ColorfulTabs by Jim Morrison
Works fine, but not in FF 17 - but I LOVE it!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars
I was on the FF beta channel [FF17x], causing my fave addon, colorful tabs, to fail. I fixed it by getting back on the release version. If you on running FF17 and colorful tabs is failing, just install the FF 16.0.2 release version by downloading it. No need to uninstall FF 17 - it will overwrite it just fine. Thanks Binary Turf for a GREAT addon!!!This review is for a previous version of the add-on (16.6.1-signed).
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Cannot live without this! A MUST have! Thanks!!!This review is for a previous version of the add-on (4.6.2).

Last post Feb 20, 2013 11:29 AM by Rion Williams
Feb 20, 2013 10:02 AM|IndigoMontoya|LINK
I have a SQL Query that is based off of day of week. I am in the inital set-up and am trying to figure out how to pass day of week to the query...
DateTime dt; dt = DateTime.Now; string qSQL = "Select * from testData WHERE dayofweek = @DayOfWeek;" cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@DayofWeek", dt.dayofweek.ToString());
Would this be a valid syntax to pass the day of the week or am I going to have to try to go down another route?
Feb 20, 2013 10:05 AM|Rion Williams|LINK
It depends on the type of value that is being stored within your database "dayOfWeek" field. The DateTime.DayOfWeek property will output values based on how it is being cast, so if you attempt to cast it as an integer, it would return a value between 0-6 (0 being Sunday and 6 being Saturday) or in your case using the .ToString() method will yield the string name of the day ("Sunday" through "Saturday").
With regards to your other question of adding the parameter, using the Parameters.AddWithValue() method is the preferred method of populating SQL Query parameters (as opposed to using something like string.Format() or concatenating string values).
Feb 20, 2013 10:09 AM|IndigoMontoya|LINK
Sweet! I do have the data stored in the SQL Table as Monday, Tuesday etc etc. I will test it and post back if I hit any quirks.
Feb 20, 2013 10:49 AM|IndigoMontoya|LINK
Okay, I have hit a little bit of a hiccup here....I wanted to add an additional parameter to my query like so
string qSQL = "Select * from testData WHERE dayofWeek = @DayOfWeek AND driverName = @DriverName;" cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@DayofWeek", dt.dayofweek.ToString()); cmd.Parametesr.AddWithValue("@DriverName", "Joseph");
but it tells me that I must declare the variable @DriverName
Feb 20, 2013 11:12 AM|Rion Williams|LINK
That looks correct, as long as you have the appropriate column called "driverName" within your database that is being queried (and you aren't executing your command prior to adding the second parameter).
Have you tried using parentheses around your components of your WHERE clause, hard-coding the driverName as Joseph, or adding single quotes around each of your Parameters within your query?
//Parentheses-method string qSQL = "Select * from testData WHERE (dayofWeek = @DayOfWeek) AND (driverName = @DriverName);"; //Hard-coded method (for testing purposes) string qSQL = "Select * from testData WHERE dayofWeek = @DayOfWeek AND driverName = 'Joseph';"; //Single-quote wrapping method string qSQL = "Select * from testData WHERE dayofWeek = '@DayOfWeek' AND driverName = '@DriverName';";
Feb 20, 2013 11:19 AM|IndigoMontoya|LINK
I will try to add single quotes or parenthesis as recommended. My code goes below those add parameters and shows
using (SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(connectionString)) { SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand(qSQL, connection); connection.Open(); SqlDataReader reader = command.ExecuteReader();
and once it hits that Execute reader line it shows me the must declare teh scalar variable @DriverName
10457 Points
Feb 20, 2013 11:22 AM|TabAlleman|LINK
You are doing things in the wrong order.
You have to add the parameters AFTER this line:
SqlCommand command =
new SqlCommand(qSQL, connection);
and BEFORE this one:
SqlDataReader reader = command.ExecuteReader();
Also be sure to add the parameters to "command" and not "cmd", since you are naming your command object "command".
Feb 20, 2013 11:29 AM|Rion Williams|LINK
As mentioned by TabAlleman and myself previously,
You need to add your parameters after creating your command and prior to your command being executed :
using (SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(connectionString)) { //Your SQL Query string qSQL = "Select * from testData WHERE dayofWeek = @DayOfWeek AND driverName = @DriverName;" //Create a command SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand(qSQL, connection); //Add your parameters command Parameters.AddWithValue("@DayofWeek", dt.dayofweek.ToString()); command.Parametesr.AddWithValue("@DriverName", "Joseph"); //Open your connection and execute your query connection.Open(); SqlDataReader reader = command.ExecuteReader(); }

Home Plan Detail
Open Living
By: John Barrja
Barrja Design
Square FootageTotal living area: 4334' Basement: 0' Main Level:2642' Upper Level:1692' Footprint: 66' 4" W x 62' 2" D
RoomsBedrooms: 4 Bathrooms: 3.5 Master suite location: Main Floor
AttributesLevels: 2 Parking: Garage Number of car stalls: 3 Foundation: Crawlspace Lot type(s):
- Formal Flex Space
- Office Nook
- Recreational Room
- Covered Terrace
- Media Room
- Vaulted Ceilings
After entering the foyer, there's a room with optional doors on your left. This room can be used as a formal living room, a library, or an office, and a secondary door can easily be added to the back hall if desired, for additional access. After passing a stairwell on your left, you enter the large open living space. An open gallery separates the kitchen on the left from the formal dining room on the right, and boxed columns with dropped soffit ceilings visually separate the individual spaces.
A square island with a prep sink is located in the center of the kitchen. Straight ahead is the great room, with a decorative coffered beam ceiling. A fireplace at the end of the room warms the space, and a door walks out to a covered terrace. Full height windows next to the door look out to the terrace, and bring abundant sunlight into the room. From the kitchen, a hallway leads to a pantry, an office space, a powder room, a laundry room, and a two–car garage. A side door opens onto a side entry space, which leads to an additional one–car garage.
On the other side of the entry foyer is the master bedroom suite. The bedroom has a vaulted ceiling, and a glazed door with full height windows next to it looks out to the covered terrace at the rear. The large master bath features a whirlpool tub, a separate shower, a private toilet room, and two vanity sinks. The bath connects to the walk–in closet, which has a 'his' and a (larger) 'her' side.
After climbing the stairs to the upper level, you enter an open recreation room which has ceilings that slope up to a flat ceiling with a height of 14'–6". On one wall a door leads to attic storage, and on another wall there is a niche for built–ins. The central recreation room has a pair of doors that lead to a media room, which features a fireplace, and a vaulted ceiling with exposed wood beams. Bedrooms 2 and 3 both have walk–in closets, and they share a full bathroom, while bedroom 4 has its own sunny full bath with three windows that look out to the front.
Please Note
Due to licensing agreements, this home may not be built within a 50–mile radius of downtown Charlotte, North Carolina, without permission of the designer.

US Shield Nickels
The nickel was born out of the Civil War, when the hoarding of silver coins such as half dimes and quarters was commonplace. This prompted the creation of paper fractional currency, which just about nobody liked. After the war, in 1865, nickel mining interests successfully lobbied to get their metal included in the alloy for a new five-cent coin, which would be composed of 25 percent nickel and 75 percent copper.
Mint engraver James B. Longacre's first nickel design was rejected because its obverse featured a bust of recently assassinated President Abraham Lincoln, who Mint Director James Pollock deemed too polarizing an image for defeated Southerners. Pollock also disliked Longacre's George Washington designs, but he eventually settled on a mild variation of Longacre's recent two-cent piece, which featured a bland shield crowned by the words "IN GOD WE TRUST" and a pair of droopy laurel branches.
When Longacre's nickels were circulated in 1866, they were promptly described as "the ugliest of all known coins." The reverse was better, especially to contemporary eyes, but like the obverse it was not without controversy. Some said the rays—or bars, as they are also called—between the 13 six-pointed stars on the coin's reverse were intended as a nod to Confederate soldiers. In fact, the rays were removed midway through 1867, but only because they made the coins difficult to strike.
Shield nickels were minted by the tens of millions, and many decent examples have survived to this day. Because shield nickels were only minted until 1883, they are a fairly easy coin to collect. Of the coins with rays, those from 1866 are most plentiful.
Beware of counterfeit coins dated 1871, 1874, and 1875. These coins circulated widely in the 1870s. No new nickels were minted in 1877 or 1878, although proofs were struck both years. Despite the limited mintages of these proofs (510+ and 2,350 coins respectively), the valuations on these nickels are not especially high since the quality of these coins is uniformly low.
Finally, because this coin was made using a nickel alloy, which is harder than alloys containing silver, completely-struck variations are difficult to come by. Collectors especially value Shield nickels in which all of the vertical lines on the obverse shield are fully-struck and distinct.
Shield nickels were followed in 1883 by Liberty Head nickels, which were struck for circulation until 1912.

Poison Idea – Darby Crash Rides Again: The Early Years (2012) MP3/Flac
Compare, for a moment, Poison Idea to many of the well-groomed and immaculately-tattooed punks strutting their safe 'n' sanitised stuff today. Here was a band that was fat, ugly, ill-kempt and proudly degenerate. You'd never find them in a gym or their posters plastered on the bedroom walls of teenage girls, and their music represented an adequate enough summation of the bleak, brutal reality they inhabited: raw, belligerent and yet, for all its many sins, comfortable in its own sallow, pock-marked skin.
Despite tumultuous line-up changes, wanton criminality and slavering addictions, the band managed to outlast many of their strait-laced peers, influencing everyone from heavy metal's biggest hitters (Pantera and Machine Head… — BBC
mp3 VBR~284 kbps | 102 MB | DF | UL
…would both go on to cover tracks from their Feel the Darkness masterpiece) to legions of basement-bound hardcore acts who'd toast the band's on-again-off-again existence with cans of warm beer while trying to recreate the blitzed-out brilliance of the late Pig Champion's furious guitar work.
This first installation of a comprehensive reissue series showcases the band as they crawled up from hardcore's primordial soup, acknowledging Black Flag and the Germs while putting their own stamp on a genre that had yet to be formalised, codified and over-analysed. Proceedings start with six unreleased cuts from the Boner's Kitchen demo, a blur of all-consuming fuzz and buzz overseen by Jerry A's sneering vocals. The demo's final track, Give It Up, segues into a beefed-up and infinitely more bellicose rendition of the same song that appeared later on the Darby Crash Rides Again demo, an eye-watering dose of fury whose raw materials would later resurface on the seminal Pick Your King 7″. The rest of the CD comprises an audience-baiting KBOO live set and two offcuts from 1984's Record Collectors Are Pretentious Assholes 12″, wherein the band's next iteration was already starting to take hideously lumpen shape.
The results – despite the estimable remastering job – ain't pretty, and if you're looking for some sort of sugar-coated punk rock joyride then this certainly won't be for you. If, on the other hand, you aren't afraid to get a little grubby and grapple with a band who fought dirty while they merged a quiet yet fierce intelligence with black humour and foul-mouthed, untrammelled aggression then, hell, step right up and try your luck with the self-proclaimed Kings of Punk.
