Recall the Productive, Controlling and Weakening cycles, the Strength of the Day Master is determined by its strength in relation to the Seasonal QI. To determine the strength of the elements, recite the mantra: In season, in location, in formation. When the day master is prosperous, we control, when strong, we weaken, when trapped, we release, when dead, we resurrect.
In this lesson, students will learn from Joey Yap the criteria of strength of the elements in a BaZi Chart. The strength or intensity of the elements determines the strength of the chart. Too strong a chart or too weak a chart will have negative effects in a BaZi Chart analysis.
It was very interesting, I would participate again. I am also waiting for the German translation of the Coaching.
I was totally blown away by Joey Yap's generosity. I have taken classes - too many to count - and to have an offer to share the DYD information and earn some income without fees, percentages, etc., is so alien a concept that I would be proud to share and help others. I was very impressed especially when I compare the teacher to all of the others I have taken courses from. I think I would enjoy learning from Joey Yap and now need to save to attend more classes!

England captain Charlotte Edwards hit 40 not out to guide her team to a convincing eight wicket win over the White Ferns in the opening match of the Quadrangular series at Chelmsford, England.
The White Ferns were bundled out for 83 in 19.3 overs with opener Suzie Bates striking 19 to be the best of the batsmen. The England reply was ruthless as they marched to 86 for two in the fourteenth over.
Edwards won the toss and asked the White Ferns to bat with her bowling attack taking full advantage of some early movement.
Left-arm spinner Holy Colvin did most of the damage as she removed three of the top four batsmen to return figures of three for 17 while medium pacer Arran Brindle picked up late wickets to finish with three for 11.
White Ferns new ball bowler Sian Ruck was tidy, taking one for 17 off four overs, but the attack never looked like defending the small total.
England opener Laura Marsh hit 24 in support of her captains unbeaten 40.
The White Ferns next match is against India at Clifton College Close Ground on Sunday 25 June.

Sheriff: Portland Mall Shooting Was Random [VIDEO]
The shooting at the Clackamas Town Center in Portland, Oregon on Tuesday night appears to be random according to police.
Clackamas County Sheriff Craig Roberts tells NBC's "Today" it appears that the shooting was random and the shooter was seemingly targeting "anyone who was in his line of sight."
"It really was a killing of total strangers, to my knowledge at this point and time. He was really trying to kill as many people as possible,"Roberts later told ABC's Good Morning America.
Police have yet to release the identify of the gunman who began firing shots inside the mall packed with 10,000 holiday shoppers & employees at 6:30PM EST (3:30PM PST).
The unidentified shooter was a man in his 20s who apparently fired at random because there's no known connection between the gunman and the man and woman who were killed and the young woman who was wounded, police said.
The young woman, Kristina Shevchenko, whose age could not be confirmed, is in serious condition, Oregon Health & Science University Hospital in Portland said early Wednesday.
Shoppers and employees ran out of the mall or hid inside offices, stores and restrooms in the mall.
Clackamas County sheriff's Lt. James Rhodes told reporters at a press briefing, "I can confirm the shooter is dead of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound" adding no law enforcement rounds were fired in the mall. He was identified only as an adult male.
Over 100 officers from nearly every government agency responded to the shooting. Four SWAT teams were quickly deployed, Clackamas County Sheriff Craig Roberts said, to "basically hunt down this guy in the mall" according to KATU TV.
The victims have not been identified.
"We had some true heroes stepping up," Roberts said during a news conference.
Some emergency room nurses and a physician were at the mall when the gunfire erupted, and they immediately went to work to provide care to the wounded, he said. Others, including everyday citizens, also helped get out of the mall.
Police have not identified the weapon used in the shooting; early reports said he was using an AR-15 assault rifle.
The mall will remain closed on Wednesday according to their Facebook page.
KATU TV reports the gunman ran into the mall from Macy's and began firing an assault weapon as he walked through the mall's food court towards JC Penney hollaring "I am the shooter." KATU reports the rifle jammed and the gunman ran back into Macy's.
The station also reports a Christmas concert going on in the food court as the shooting took place.
Santa Claus, who is stationed outside Macy's, offered reassuring words on KGW TV that he is OK and not injured. Witnesses reported seeing Santa drop to his knees but he was only taking cover and not shot.
CNN reports a man entered the mall via Macy's and headed for the mall where he began firing as many as 60 shots. Witnesses say he was wearing a white mask similar to that seen in the movie "V For Vendetta" and body armor.
Some customers gathered in the electronics department at the mall's Sears store watching TV coverage of the shooting reports CNN.
Kira Rowland told KGW-TV that she was shopping at Macy's with her infant when the shots started.
"All of a sudden you hear two shots, which sounded like balloons popping," Rowland told the station. "Everybody got on the ground. I grabbed the baby from the stroller and got on the ground."
Rowland said she heard people screaming and crying. "I put the baby back in the stroller and ran like hell," Rowland said. "It was awful. It was shots after shots after shots like a massacre "It was just awful."
Another witness told the station she saw people screaming and parents grabbing their children as they fled the mall.Witnesses say the gunshots sounded like balloons popping.
The mall has about 185 stores and a 20-screen movie theater among anchor tenants that also include Nordstrom and J.C. Penney. Sheriff's deputies said it would remain closed during the investigation of the shooting, but it wasn't clear how long that would take.

HOUSTON - A composite sketch was released Tuesday in the sexual assault of a 16-year-old girl in northwest Harris County.
The Harris County Sheriff's Office said the girl was walking west in the 16600 block of Spring Cypress Road at around 11 p.m. on Feb. 5 when a male approached her from behind, dragged her into a field and sexually assaulted her.
The girl was then struck in the head by a blunt object several times before the suspect fled.
The victim walked to a nearby business, where someone called 911.
There were not witnesses to the attack, but the man was spotted at a convenience store where he apparently went to clean up. A bloody shirt believed to be connected to the assault was found in a restroom.
"I saw him when he opened the door, and then he walked real fast toward the restroom," said Sam Baba. "When he came over here, he was wearing the gray shirt, light gray shirt, which was, like, bloody. When he came out (of the restroom), he was, like, wearing nothing -- only the white, inside undergarment."
Baba said the man had scratches on his body and he squeezed and relaxed his fists, as if they were sore. Blood was found smeared on the walls and floors of the restroom, Baba said.
Detectives said descriptions given by the victim and witnesses at the convenience store helped them create the sketch.
The suspect was described as a white male, 5 feet 7 inches to 5 feet 8 inches tall with a thin muscular build and wearing dark colored clothing.
The Harris County Sheriff's Office is asking for the public's help in the case. If anyone observed the victim walking along Spring Cypress Road and Barker Cypress Road between the hours of 10:15 p.m. and 11:45 p.m. on Friday or has any information about the suspect is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS (84770).

DAI Greene is calling time on his season after another disappointing performance at a home Games in Glasgow.
The former world champion, who is based in Beanacre, disappointed at the Olympics two years ago but at least he made the final.
On Wednesday, at the Glasgow 2014 Common-wealth Games, he finished a distant fifth in his 400m hurdles heat, clocking a time of 50.36 seconds that was over two-and-a-half seconds slower than his personal best.
However, he insisted he didn't have high hopes of defending the title he won four years ago at Delhi 2010, after three recent hernia operations and a delayed start to the season.
"I'm disappointed as no-one wants to miss out on the final and I did have ambition of making it with a good lane draw," said Greene, who captained the Great Britain athletics team at London 2012.
"I lack that specific work on speed endurance and it really showed. I had nothing left coming down the home straight, I felt the guys draw level and then they were gone and I couldn't respond.
"It's frustrating but that's the way it is. I wasn't sure how I would feel at the end of the race so it was just a voyage of discovery and obviously I really paid for it.
"I'm disappointed but three months ago I didn't think I would be on the start line. I knew three months ago that this season would not be what I wanted.
"I don't like losing or finishing down the field but I know I didn't do enough training to be Common-wealth champion. I know it takes months and months, even a year of training to do it and it's got to go really well.
"I knew I wasn't in that sort of shape but I wasn't going to pass up the opportunity to wear a Welsh vest and experience the crowd."
Greene was hopeful of running himself into the Great Britain team for next month's European Champ-ionships in Zurich but he will now end his season after failing to achieve the qualifying standard.
Meanwhile, the 28-year old has expressed surprise that two of his Welsh teammates – Gareth Warburton and fellow 400m hurdler Rhys Williams – had been suspended for alleged doping violations.
Both men have blamed a supplement for the adverse readings and Greene expressed some sympathy for their plight.
"I used to live with Gareth and he's a good friend and I know he's not that sort of guy," he added.
"When we lived together he only had the money to eat raisins and couscous, so I don't think he's organising a drugs ring.
"Rhys and I don't really get on, but I know he's not the sort of person to cheat. I believe they've been careless or misled but they are not cheats.
"They have already been punished quite severely in terms of missing the Commonwealths and they'll be too old for the next one to be in any sort of good shape."

The latest Biggest Loser winner in the US, Rachel Frederickson, has heard the concerns but she's not listening. And she's not answering questions about whether her weight loss went too far.
That's because she's absolutely thrilled that she managed to diet and exercise her way down to 47.6 kilograms from a starting weight of 118kg on NBC's weight-loss show. In all, the Los Angeles voiceover artist lost 70.3kg, or 59.6 per cent of her body weight, and won the show's $US250,000 ($280,000) grand prize because of it.
Her dramatic transformation, however, has led to criticism and fears that she's now too skinny, with some wondering whether she has an eating disorder. Even the show's trainers Bob Harper and Jillian Michaels seemed surprised when she first walked onto the stage at the finale.
At 165 centimetres and 47.6kg, Frederickson is considered officially underweight, according to the Body Mass Index charts.
During a media conference call, however, the one-time competitive swimmer who says she has reclaimed the athlete within sidestepped pointed questions repeatedly. She declined to specifically address the extent of her weight loss, or the backlash of criticism brewing on social media.
Frederickson said that when she looks in the mirror, "I see a strong, confident woman. I feel great."
She said she lost all her weight under the direct supervision of the show's medical experts and training staff. She said she did it with "super healthy" food choices, and by eating five small meals a day and hitting a calorie count of no more than 1600 calories a day. Meals revolved around a perfectly balanced mix of carbs, fat and protein.
In addition, she said, "I worked out a tonne." That included spending her working hours walking at a treadmill desk and then wedging in extra fitness classes and workouts where she could.
105 pounds? 60% loss? That's not healthy, by any definition. Hard to celebrate that. @BiggestLoserNBC #BL15 #BLFinale — DietsInReview (@DietsInReview)
February 5, 2014
"I'm extremely proud of the way I lost the weight," she said, later adding: "I followed the advice and supervision of the medical team at The Biggest Loser the entire journey."
Now, with victory in hand, Frederickson said she was looking to find the balance that will allow her to maintain her weight loss and fuel an active new lifestyle. To this point she had been focused on the finale. Now she plans to start hitting the weights to build muscle, as well as try new fitness options, such as dance classes.
She said she was also looking forward to sharing recipes for the foods she enjoyed the most, such as egg white French toast, omelettes, sweet potato chips and a homemade ice cream made with protein powder that tastes like a decadent splurge even though it only has 200 calories per pint (473ml).
She says she had no plans for the prize money, beyond buying new clothes and saving the rest.
The closest Frederickson came to addressing the weight-loss controversy during the half-hour conference call seemed to come when she said: "It's OK to have your own path and be different." In fact, she added, "It's pretty empowering."
To be sure, not everyone is criticising Frederickson's weight loss. Some say the backlash underscores the "damned if she does, damned if she doesn't" situation she was in heading into the finale. And really, who wouldn't pull out all the stops for a $250,000 payday?
Some also lashed out at what they said was hypocrisy, asking why so much controversy was swirling around Frederickson when, for example, Hollywood rains down the accolades (and awards season trophies) on actors who dramatically alter their appearance for a role?
But one teenage viewer who e-mailed the network said there was a big difference: The Biggest Loser holds itself out as a show dedicated to helping people win back their health and their lives, and encourages obese Americans to use the show for motivation and inspiration to do the same.
"However, the finale completely contradicts the message," the e-mail said. "I am deeply upset by what I saw tonight as I'm sure many Americans are too."
Rachel was my favorite all season but I just can't be happy for her cause she clearly was TOO thin. it's about FITness, not THINness #BL15 — Keri Roberts (@keri_roberts)

SAINT LEO, Fla. – The Saint Leo softball team earned 61 points to finish sixth in the 2010 Sunshine State Conference Preseason poll, it was announced Friday by SSC Commissioner Jay Jones. Nova Southeastern has been selected as the preseason favorite to win the 2010 SSC softball championship.
Saint Leo, which concluded the 2009 year with a 30-25 record, ended play sixth in the SSC with a 9-15 mark. Saint Leo returns eight players from last year's team and welcomes six new players into the mix.
Leading that group is a trio of .300 hitters, including the outfield pair of Tiffinee Harvey and Amber Martyn.

Collect some ants in soil/dirt from outside.
Put the lid on the smaller jar and place it inside the bigger one. (This will help keep ants near the outer edge where you can watch them work.)
Fill the space between the two jars about halfway full with ants and soil.
Now fill the top half with sand and mix with the soil. It doesn't need to be mixed completely.
Put the sponge wet with sugar water and the bits of fruit on top. Place the lid on the big jar tightly.
Use the hammer and nails to make some small air holes so that the ants can breathe.
With the construction paper, make a cone shaped roof and a cylinder shaped covering for the jar. Decorate these with crayons or colored pencils. The dark construction paper keeps the ants' house dark like their natural home underground.
Check on your ants every few days to see how much work they have been doing. You will see them making tunnels to the top to get at the sweet water and fruit.

Just as the US seems to be getting somewhere with its recovery, Wall Street develops the wobbles.
At least our shaky market has the excuse of a weakening economy.
It's remarkable how corporate America has thrived since the GFC - including the banks after their bailouts - despite an insipid economy.
A weak currency and disappearing inflation have bumped up profitability. Oh, did I mention dirt-cheap interest rates as well as nobody hiring anybody?
Relative to bond yields, Wall Street is still the bargain of the century, a situation the Federal Reserve has promised will last another three years.
It's underwriting share prices by pumping up the money supply. In debt-defying Europe, the Central Bank is belatedly on the case as well.
Anyway, a pick-up in housing in the US has come in the nick of time, just as earnings were finally starting to crack as the contraction in Europe hit spending around the world.
Even so, Wall Street fears the US might be going over the edge - or a fiscal cliff, as the untimely combination of legislated tax increases and spending cuts that happen on January 1 has become known. They'd fix the deficit but tip the US into recession on the day.
But the smart money, as distinct from Wall Street, says the budget bungee jump will be postponed. The leading US betting site Intrade, which correctly forecast the recent elections, puts the chance of a recession in the US next year at just 23 per cent. What's more, China's economy appears to have bottomed, happily at a rate most countries only dream about. Even iron-ore prices, the cause of such angst a few months ago, are rising.
So the two global economic powerhouses, one of which is our biggest trading partner, are picking up steam.
But if their direction is up, ours is down. The Reserve Bank forecasts a dip in growth next year because commodity prices and mining investment have peaked.
The question for the sharemarket is which way the dollar jumps when global growth is higher but the mining investment boom is unwinding. The Reserve is counting on it falling, but would it? While exports would rise as all that mining investment pays off, there'd be fewer imports of equipment and machinery.
Besides, our AAA credit rating makes the dollar a safe haven even for other central banks.
Guess it'll come down to whether the volume of exports outweighs the lower prices from China re-engineering its economy from resource-intensive infrastructure to pampering households. That's why the Reserve has good reason to wait before cutting rates again, especially when there's no guarantee they'd take the fizz off the currency.
Sorry, but that isn't going to please the market.

Best Joint: Chaps Pit Beef
Where: 5801 Pulaski Highway, Baltimore MD. (410) 483-2379
What: Pit Beef
Why: I saw someone mention Mount Vernon Stable but how can anyone nominate a baltimore BBQ joint that doesn't serve the only BBQ Balto can call it's own? Andy Nelson's is the best southern(alabama) style in balto, and Payne's and cozy corner in memphis are fantastic, but Chaps is it. There's nothing better than thinly sliced, perfectly medium-rare pit beef with just enough of the crunchy crust thrown in for flavor and Chaps delivers. Add onion, barbecue sauce and horseradish and it's heavenly and uniquely baltimorean. The price($4 a sandwich) location and set up(picnic tables along a busy truck route) and locals' fierce devotion are exactly what you expect in a great BBQ place.

SOME of the 20million people expected to take a driving holiday this year could be excused for doing a double-take when they see some of the AA's patrol vans.
Starting this month, five 'flower power' patrol vans – like this one driven by patrolman John McCarthy – have taken to the roads, to celebrate the Basingstoke-based company's Summer Saviours campaign.
John, and four of his patrol colleagues across the UK, will be driving the limited edition vans for the whole summer. The vans will also feature in a YouTube video this summer on the AA's YouTube page.
John, who showcased his van outside the AA's Fanum House headquarters, on Basing View, said: "It's not too subtle, so I'm hoping it will generate lots of interest.
"You can never guarantee the summer weather, but hopefully the van will guarantee a lot of smiles on the roads when people see me.
"We know that many of our members will be planning to get out and about this summer and we're here to help them make the most of it."
Anyone who spots one of the vans and tweets @TheAA_UK using #AAhippyvan with the location and time they saw it will be entered into a draw to win prizes throughout the summer.
The first prize, for June, will be five pairs of tickets to Glorious Goodwood.
People can also enter by re-tweeting #AAhippyvan tweets sent from @TheAA_UK and @AAPresident.

EMERGENCY crews cordoned off a section of beach huts in Boscombe on Saturday after a woman collapsed and died.
A passing cyclist reported to lifeguards that the woman, who has yet to be formally identified, appeared to have been taken ill in a beach hut at the bottom of the Manor Steps zigzag, east of Boscombe Pier, at around 11am.
The lifeguards rushed to check her condition and administered first aid until an ambulance crew arrived and took over. However she was later pronounced dead at the scene.
Three police cars, two seafront vehicles and the coastguard attended the incident, and the zigzag was also cordoned off as the seafront was busy with morning walkers taking advantage of the sunshine.
Paul Godier, 64, of Boscombe, said: "I was just passing when I saw the ambulance crew and the lifeguards gathered around someone on the upper level of beach huts.
"I asked a seafront chap what was going on, but he just said a woman had collapsed. He looked very grim faced.
"I'm very sorry to hear that she died. I imagine she was a hut owner. There would be no reason to go up there if not."
Holidaymaker Shawn McIntosh, 36, from Canada, said: "The road was blocked off so we couldn't see much, but they were putting a covered body into the back of a vehicle.
"It was all over quite quickly. The guys in the blue suits, I think they were forensics, were looking around for a bit."
A Dorset Police spokesman said there were no suspicious circumstances and the matter had been passed to the coroner.
Barry Heathfield, RNLI lifeguard manager for Dorset, said: "Our lifeguards are based at Boscombe East all year round, and they were approached by the cyclist saying a lady in a beach hut appeared to be unwell.
"The lifeguards went down to see if she was alright but it appeared she wasn't well at all, so they started carrying out resuscitation.
"They are all trained in advanced first aid, the same course the lifeboat crews take, and used oxygen and a defibrillator. They did everything they could until the ambulance crew arrived to take over."

Three Orange County businesspeople have been appointed to the Visit California Taskforce to work on increasing the number of Chinese tourists to the state.
The new members are Amanda Kvigne, director of marketing and business development at The Outlets at Orange; Ed Fuller, consultant to the Orange County Visitors Association; and Nicky Tang, Asia Pacific sales director at Disney Destinations.
California Visit, the state's official tourism office, created the task force after the Obama Administration eased U.S. visa requirements for travelers from the People's Republic of China last year and beefed up consulate staffing to process applications.
In 2011, nearly 1.1 million Chinese tourists came to the United States, according the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. About half of those visitors – 517,000 – came to California, the Commerce Department said.
Last year, the State Department processed 1 million visas from China in the first six months of the year alone. The Chinese government expects 2 million of its citizens to visit the United States by 2015.
State tourism officials want to make sure the Chinese travelers are aware of California's many vacation offerings. In Orange County, local groups are creating travel packages specifically geared toward Chinese visitors, including those who enjoy golf and shopping.
Besides their large numbers, the Chinese spend more than $6,000 per person per U.S. visit, according to the Commerce Department. Tourism officials said Chinese travelers spend an average $277 a day, compared with $170 for all visitors.

Brown anole dewlap
Brown anole displaying its dewlap. Not sure whether this was a male or female, though I'm sure anyone familiar with brown anoles would know instantly. Males supposedly have bigger dewlaps and display them longer … but I only saw this one individual. My guess is that it's a he. For a great overview of dewlaps, please see Anole Annals. Photograph from Key Largo, Florida, March 2014.
Also, sure wish more science fiction movies would equip aliens with these. Missed opportunity for surprise and hilarity.

By Samantha Fabiano, USC student and USC Ziftit Team Captain
As a current entrepreneurship student at the University of Southern California (USC) I strongly agree with NFTE's belief that an entrepreneurship education is fundamental for all youth to better shape and prepare them for the future.
USC's Lloyd Greif Center for Entrepreneurial Studies teaches its students about the importance of giving back. One way of doing so is through the Network For Teaching Entrepreneurship. It was during one of my entrepreneurship courses at USC that I first learned about NFTE Greater Los Angeles. My professor assigned us a project to create a business plan that would earn a profit in just three days. At the end of the assignment, 100% of the money we made was donated to NFTE. My team alone was able to raise $1,300, which all went directly to NFTE's youth entrepreneurship program. Since July 2013 the Greif Center has raised over $11,000 for NFTE.
After seeing how impactful our work has been, I wanted to continue my relationship with NFTE. Recently I formed a team with three other USC seniors to represent our school and compete against other students from various colleges across the country. We are marketing a new venture called Ziftit, a website based on simplifying the gift-giving and gift-receiving process.
When I was approached to enter this challenge for Ziftit, I knew that NFTE would be the perfect cause to partner with. The Greif Center has not only taught me about the importance of giving back, but it has also taught me that in order to be successful you must add your own "secret sauce" to the plan. Think of something that your competitors won't have. I figured that most of my competitors would not select a non-profit to donate their earnings to, so I thought why not work with a program that supports young entrepreneurs?
In order to win this collegiate challenge and give NFTE the support they deserve, my team must acquire the most active premium accounts based off the specific program code "FIGHTON14."
So, as the Holiday session grows nearer and your family and friends begin to ask you what's on your wish list, think Ziftit. Not only is Ziftit the ultimate shopping, gifting, and registry tool, but it's easy to use! Begin by creating a Ziftit list of items you like by adding them to your personalized Ziftit boards. Then, share your lists on Facebook, Twitter, or email. When family and friends visit your Zift List, they'll be able to buy the gifts you want; or pitch in on gifts to split the cost with others.
An example of the different types of Ziftit boards users can create and personalize
Please sign up now and help support the USC Team and most importantly, The Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship.
The registration process is easy. Just follow these steps:
1. Visit https://www.ziftit.com/ and click the orange "sign up" button
2. Enter the program code FIGHTON14 (in all caps)
3. Confirm your email account is correct and log back in
4. Finally, click "upgrade" to create a Premium Account
5. You're all done and ready to start Zifting!

Hi everyone, I am the newest addition to the Community Support Team. I am thrilled to be joining the Wikia team as I have always hoped to be able to work in a computer related field doing what I enjoy. And yes, this means yet another Tim on the Wikia Staff (we're multiplying)!
I have been active on several wikis for about four years, both as an editor and an admin; you can also find me helping people out with the CSS and JS on their wikis. In March of this year I joined Wikia's VSTF and hope to smoothly transition to staff, so that I'll be able to help others in a variety of ways. I've made a lot of friends in the past 4 years editing on Wikia and look forward to making even more.
Although I have many interests, games and MMOs are my favorites; you'll probably find me in my off hours playing Aion. I'm a movie buff and enjoy all types of movies; I can often be heard quoting movie or TV show lines that coincide with the current conversation topic (I feel a little like DiNozzo from NCIS at times). I love a good book but can never find the time to sit down and read one - what are your favorite books or series?

Dayanita Singh
2002, 2003, 2004, 2005
Dayanita Singh (b. 1961 India) is best known for her captivating photographs of the less obvious side of Indian society. Her images of people working, celebrating, or resting show Indian life without embellishment and capture insights into contemporary life that often challenge the disaster or exotic stereotypes of the West. In addition, Singh has explored interior spaces, personal museums, architecture, and moved to color film to capture cityscapes in her recent Blue Scenery series, 2006-08. Publishing has also become a significant part of the artist's practice. In her books, often published without text, she experiments with different ways of producing and viewing photographs.
Dayanita Singh's work is in numerous international art collections and has been exhibited at venues such as the Hamburger Bahnhof Museum, Berlin, Recontres Arles, France, Gallery Nature Morte, New Delhi, Frith Street Gallery, London, Studio Guenzani, Milan, London's Tate Modern, the Asia Society, New York, the Kunsthalle, Vienna, and the Serpentine Gallery, London. In 2010 a major retrospective of Dayanita Singh's work was shown at the MAPFRE Foundation, Madrid. Singh is the recipient of many awards including the prestigious Prince Claus Award by the government of The Netherlands (2008), the Robert Gardner Fellowship in Photography from the Harvard University Art Museums (2008), and the Andreas Frank Foundation grant (1997). Her published books are Zakir Hussain (1986); I am as I am (1999); Myself, Mona Ahmed (2001); Privacy (2003); Chairs (2005); Go Away Closer (2007); Sent a Letter (2008); Blue Book (2008); and Dream Villa (2010). Dayanita Singh has worked extensively as a photojournalist and studied Visual Communication at the National Institute of Design in Ahmedabad, and at the International Center of Photography in New York. She lives and works in New Delhi and in Goa, India.
During her residency the spring of 2002, Dayanita Singh made her first artist book for her friend Amitav Ghosh, a response to his book Crystal Palace, in the Artist-in-Residence apartment. She has since utilized this format for several single editions as well as commercially printed publications. In the museum, Singh spent the month looking at materials in the archives and photographing the collection and building. She found that she was particularly drawn to the chairs in the galleries and began to photograph their distinct personalities as though they were people. This revelation marked the beginning of her series of Chair Portraits that she shot in India, Italy and the U.S. Three years later, these portraits were featured in Chairs, a collaborative exhibition with furniture scholar Fausto Calderai, designer Andrea Anastasio, educator Carla Hartman, filmmaker Michael Sheridan, and Gardner Museum curators Pieranna Cavalchini and Alan Chong.
Dayanita Singh returned to the Gardner Museum several times and gave several talks during these visits. In 2002 she discussed her new book, Myself Mona Ahmed, with contemporary curator Pieranna Cavalchini. The evening also included a staged reading of letters in the book from Mona Ahmed to the editor by Thomas Derra, a longstanding member of the American Repertory Theatre Company in Cambridge, MA. In 2003, Singh joined another Artist-in-Residence, Jyotindra Jain, to explore contemporary visual popular culture in India at an Eye of the Beholder Lecture. Jain, then the Director of the Crafts Museum in Delhi, and Singh discussed how culture influences the way people in the region present themselves to the image maker and the concepts and contextual reconstructions in which photographic images are taken and manipulated as an instrument of cultural force in modern India. Singh spoke about her Chair Portraits and residency with Cavalchini when her exhibition opened as well as invited Amatov Gosh to come to do a reading in the gallery and to talk about her work.
During several weeks in May 2003, Dayanita Singh worked closely with a group of ten 8th graders from the Mission Hill School. Singh visited the students at their school and talked extensively about her experiences working as an artist and a photojournalist. She gave them disposable cameras and provided instructions on how to approach their subjects stressed that they needed to be conscious of what they included, or left out of, the frame. Next they focused on journalism and how to create a portrait of someone through an interview. The class also came to the museum to visit Dayanita Singh and spend time in the galleries. After Singh reviewed the first sets of photographs, she gave each student a special assignment for the next roll of film such as: take all still lifes, all pictures of people, or all self portraits. Photographs from the two assignments were selected and compiled into individual journals and a collaborative book. On their trip to the museum, Singh had photographed each student in the Courtyard and together in the carriage house apartment. She gave each a contact sheet of their portrait and a print of the group together.

Prize Recipient
Victor Rodriguez
University of Texas at Austin
My name is Victor Alonso Rodriguez. I was born in El Paso, TX, but was raised in Juarez, Mexico. I am currently a junior at the University of Texas at Austin, a proud Longhorn.
Mathematics has always been a subject of interest to me, ever since elementary school. My passion for physics, however, was more of a self-discovery process. I remember looking through my dad's library and finding an old book that caught my attention, A Brief History of Time by Stephen Hawking. Reading this book truly triggered my love of physics. I continued to learn physics on my own through high school, and then decided to become a Physics major in college. During these three years of studying physics at UT, my passion for the subject has definitely piqued. I never cease to be amazed by the ability of physics to explain the nature of the universe in such a general and elegant way. I plan to continue on to graduate school and earn my PhD. I am currently working with a professor in the field of particle physics, which I really enjoy. I am also excited that I will be an intern at CERN this summer. As of now, I aspire to become a theoretical physicist; however, I would like to continue exploring other fields and remain open to other possibilities.
Besides science, I am also very interested in philosophy, politics, and music. I also love playing soccer and playing my electric guitar. Lastly, I would like to thank the American Physical Society for the generous scholarship.

"My wedding is navy blue and gold, so these will match perfectly. I believe I changed the Table font to navy blue. The design is exactly what I was looking for, and is simple enough to not make tables look too busy. Thank you!"
"Purchased the place card after ordering the rehearsal dinner invitations in the same design. Was so pleased with the invitations (first time order), decided to order the matching place cards. Standard paper is of excellent quality and color vibrant. Very impressed with their quick delivery. Example on website does not do justice to the beautiful finished product."
"Just loved this whole suite. We are having a rehearsal luncheon for our son in a room with a lot of greenery so the design is perfect. Their wedding venue is outdoor so i this design is staying with the theme. Quality of the paper is fantastic. The only thing I wish was that the design was on the back of the place cards as well."
"I ordered these place cards because they fit my rustic spring wedding. I like the simplicity of the leaf pattern. I did not want a plain Placecard and when I looked through the choices, I fell in love with this design. I would definitely recommend this product to those who are considering it."
"I removed the table #____. These are the perfect size & thickness for seating cards. The colors match a pink themed wedding perfectly. I also ordered the matching invitations."

Dorothea Lange: A Life Beyond Limits
Believe it or not, after you've weekended in Paris for years, it can get dull, even when you have a lovely pièd in the Seventh Arrondissement. So my wife, Anne, and my 13-year-old son, Harrison, decided we needed a road trip. Biarritz, the surfing hot spot in the French Basque region near the Spanish border, had history for Harry, shopping for Anne, and a hotel we would all love. We rented a Mercedes-Benz GLK320—their new, smaller SUV—to handle all those winding cliffs.

As Harry says, sit on your luggage, because the first room is never right for his parents! Our third was magic, double with sea views. The Hôtel du Palais is a wonderful, 152-room hotel along the Grande Plage. Once the summer residence of Napoleon III and his Empress Eugénie, the Palais still feels as luxurious, with a spa, huge pool, gym, and putting green.

Mole rats tune out, according to ScienceNOW ScienceShots, March 2007. (Whole item quoted.) "Say what? With lives spent underground, it's perhaps no surprise that Fukomys mole-rats have poor hearing. They don't need to hear anything, so their ears gradually became useless over time; at least that was a popular theory. But a new study, published in the February issue of Naturwissenschaften, argues the opposite. The authors found that low-frequency sounds, such as those produced by animals and people walking overhead, become amplified in underground burrows - a phenomenon known as the 'stethoscope effect'. Mole-rats may have dialled down their hearing, it turns out, to avoid these nuisance noises."
Editorial Comment: As scientists have only ever observed mole rats to have the hearing they have now, the idea that they once had a different kind of hearing is pure faith based on a prior belief that mole rats evolved from some other kind of animal. What would be wrong with this idea, which fits the observed facts: mole rats were designed to have the right kind of hearing for the environment they live in. Find out by seeing the movie Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed. (Ref. design, mammals, burrows)

Mount Saint Mary College professor emerita of philosophy, Kate
Lindemann, recently visited the college to discuss female
philosophers dating back hundreds of years before their earliest
known male counterparts.
In "Taking Women Seriously: Or, How We Know the Greeks Did Not
Originate Western Philosophy," held in honor of Women's History
Month, Lindemann noted that Western philosophy has long been
thought to originate with the Greeks and Romans.
However, recent research proves that Greek philosophy has Arabic
According to Lindemann, there were female philosophers in Iraq,
Syria, Egypt, and Italy long before the likes of Plato or
Lindeman said that philosopher En Hedu'ann, an Akkadian princess
in the Sumerian city-state of Ur, predates Thales, who is credited
as being the first Greek philosopher, by more than 1,500 years.
"For her, it is the sun that is the source of all things," said
Lindemann, of En Hedu'ann's philosophy.
Lindemann is a leading scholar in the field of women
philosophers. She is a member of the American Philosophical
Association, the American Catholics Philosophical Association and
the Society for Women in Philosophy.
In 2011, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural
Organization sponsored her participation in the Third Assembly of
the International Network of Women Philosophers in Paris.
Lindemann earned her BA in English from Seton Hall University,
her MA in philosophy from Fordham University and her PhD at
Michigan State University, as the first woman accepted into that
school's philosophy doctoral program.
As a senior scholar at the Mount's Center on Aging and Policy,
Lindemann brings the topic of elderhood into philosophical
Courses in philosophy at the Mount cover insights of major
Western and Eastern philosophers, helping students master basic
skills of philosophical thought and an "examined life."
The college also offers comprehensive study in health
professions, business, education, social services,
communication/media, and more, plus master's degrees in business,
education and nursing.
The talk was sponsored by Curtin Memorial Library and the
division of philosophy and religious studies. A video of the

for those who have or haven't followed my writings over the years, these past 6-7 weeks or so worth of my posts are probably the best things i have ever written on the subjects (primarily snap) and the people i have worked with for years tend to agree with that.
i'm way too f'n lazy to actually sit down and pound out a 10 page article on snap, but all the material is out there.
for those that aren't familiar w/ the "distance secrets" article, that was compiled by someone based on 40+ pages worth of a thread on the old pdga.com board (i was lucky enough to be a part of the Q&A).
i'm basically looking for something similar to that to be done with the stuff i have posted over the past 2 months across various threads. i tried to start new threads when introducing a new concept even though the basic ideas and materials were the same in order to keep a thread from going 40+ pages and having tons of backlogging.
if you would be interested in taking a stab at it, please let me know. the finished product would be posted on the main site as an article and we'd get joint credits.
i know this is a pretty big task and i might even be willing to have several people work on their own interpretation of it and post all of them. i can help a bit during the refining/proofing phase. you can make it as short or as long as you want to. e.g. if you just wanted to compile an article on the "pen drill" and what can be learned by it, that would be fine.

Set in the era of the Nixon and Reagan presidencies, this novel examines the American conscience while inviting us into the glittering world of the East Coast legal community. Stephen L. Carter's book follows black Ivy League law professor Talcott Garland as he investigates the death of his father, Judge Oliver Garland, the eponymous "Emperor."
When Judge Garland received a Supreme Court nomination, a nationally televised humiliation forced his withdrawal, a scandal from which he never recovered. Now his sudden death hints at an even more terrible scandal that links this privileged Martha's Vineyard family to the shadowlands of crime. To follow the clues left by his father, Tal risks everything, and uncovers a tapestry of ambition, family secrets, and justice gone terribly wrong.
©2002 Stephen L. Carter; (P)2002 Books on Tape, Inc.
"A thrilling read, driven by a cocktail of plot and character." (The Observer)
"An elegantly nuanced novel, with finely drawn characters, a challenging plot, and perfect pacing." (Booklist)
"[A] complex literary thriller. Carter deftly weaves together several strands, from the relationships of father and sons and husbands and wives to the politics of the Nixon and Reagan eras." (Bookpage)
"Not a bad book but where was the editor?"
A decent storyline and plausible characters but way to long and repetitive. This book could easily have been condensed in half without reducing the value. I found myself not really listening especially the 2 middle parts and in hindsight it might have been better to get the abridged version.
"Long, drawn-out and not particularly satisfying"
This is a curious book - it's not really a thriller as the plot is too thin and there's little action. But then it's not really a literary novel either, which is what it seems to have pretensions to be. As others have commented, the narrator evinces littles sympathy. In fact, none of the characters does. A more self-centred, obnoxious bunch you'd be hard-pressed to find. Where the book works best is in the description of a troubled marriage and the narrator's relationship with his three-year-old son, but this has precious little to do with driving the plot along. There's some good writing scattered throughout the book, but there is way too much padding and pointless meanderings. The abridged version is almost certainly a better bet - this is one title that could be cut to a third of its length without harm.
"Oh my goodness put me out of this misery"
Do not waste a book credit or even 37 cents on this audio book. The plot has some interest at times, but, goodness it goes on forever along tangents that are incomprehensible. The author wrote some wretched dialog and I'm still trying to figure out why the law professor husband didn't just sue and divorce his adulterous wife. Character development was non existent. I never did listen to the end and I don't even care.
"not for everyone"
it is interesting to see the wide spread of opinions about this book. people seem to love it or hate it, and I am firmly in the first camp. Yes, the book is long, but what a fascinating world the author presents. I was thoroughly engrossed and grew fond of the protagonist despite (or perhaps because of) his foibles. Can't wait to read the author's second book.
"Wore me out."
At first I liked this book because the narrator was so unlikeable - smug, self-centered, clueless - and yet because of his obvious weakenesses I identified with him. And it is so rare to see an unlikeable narrator in genre fiction. But as the book went on and on, the narrator's ponitification (his presentation of pet peeves as dire warnings of social decay) wore me out. Ultimately, what could have been an enjoyable and informative read, became an apologia for self-serving and passive melancholy.
"Slow. Very slow, and not very interesting."
Reading The Emperor of Ocean park is an exercise in endurance. It is a very long listen by any standard (26 hours!) which is made even longer by a plot that develops at glacial speed and the flat personality of the main character. The descriptions of places and characters are unnecessarily belabored. There are very few "aha!" moments for the reader. The final scenes (the final hour or so) pick up a little steam, start flowing a little better and holding your attention a little more, but the ending was, in my opinion, disappointing.
If you are interested in gaining a view into the "glittery lives of Ivy League professors, etc. etc." (paraphrasing from the publisher's description), perhaps this would be an interesting read -- but it may feel more like homework.
If you are looking for complex characters, a suspenseful plot that leaves you hanging and eagerly waiting for the next chapter, and a shocking finale... look elsewhere.
The Emperor of Ocean Park is an excellent book, both suspenseful and rich in characters. The narrator does an outstanding job, as well. I would highly recommend this audiobook.
"Still a masterpiece"
I love this read (listen) just as much the second time around, as when I read the hardcover when this was first published in 2002! Excellent performance by the narrator. He brought all of Mr. Carter's flawed (but enticing) characters to life, better than I imagined could be done. Bravo!
"Good Book"
This was a very long book but it wasgood. The book jumped around alot and had lots of characters , still good.
Love to read for pleasure. Love to read to learn. Love to read for me.
"Really really long ... but a good story"
It would be difficult to listen again because it was so long. However I realized too late that I had the unabridged version.
The mystery of the story was very good.

Point guard situation improving for Gators
Published: Thursday, December 5, 2013 at 5:46 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, December 5, 2013 at 5:46 p.m.
Florida's point guard situation heading into its matchup with Kansas next Tuesday in the SEC-Big 12 Challenge is not as dire as initially feared.
Freshman McDonald's All-American point guard Kasey Hill began individual drills on Wednesday, the first step toward a possible return to the court. And although senior point guard Scottie Wilbekin sat out practice Wednesday, the ankle sprain he suffered late in Monday's game against Connecticut is not as severe as initially feared.
Neither Hill nor Wilbekin have been ruled out for this Tuesday's game against the Jayhawks at the O'Connell Center.
Hill has been out since suffering a high ankle sprain Nov. 18 in the first half of UF's 67-53 win over Southern. The 6-foot-1 guard from Umatilla was averaging 10.3 points and 4.3 assists in four games at the time of his injury.
Wilbekin has averaged 11.3 points, 5.7 assists and 3.1 steals in three games since his return from a disciplinary suspension to start the season. The 6-foot-2 guard from Gainesville rolled his ankle while landing for a rebound late against the Huskies.
The return of one or both point guards would provide the Gators with some needed depth against No. 6 Kansas. After Wilbekin's injury, the Gators were down to five healthy scholarship players late in the Connecticut game. Forward DeVon Walker played two minutes against the Huskies but is still not 100-percent recovered from a sprained foot. Guard Eli Carter has been slow to heal from a broken leg sustained last February and did not play against Connecticut due to a coach's decision.
Carter is expected to take a medical redshirt. He has until next Tuesday against Kansas whether to proceed with his junior season or sit out the rest of the season without it counting toward his eligibility.

I want to put up hundreds of html pages and I don't want to have to make changes to the xhtml for several years.The pages I created using the code shown pass W3C. I have used the word "example" in places in the codeto keep out extraneous info (just for this post).
Is the code below adequate or in need of extra meta-data, other info, or changes?
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /><title>example</title><meta name="keywords" content="example" /> <meta name="description" content="example" /> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="example.css" />
Is there a particular reason you're not going with a strict DOCTYPE?
The code is technically OK, but I'd put that into a PHP (or any other programming language) include so that you only ever need to edit a single file instead of a hundred or more, should the need arise.
Example (with your code):
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
<meta name="keywords" content="example" />
<meta name="description" content="example" />
<link rel=
"stylesheet" type="text/css" href="example.css" />
And in your index.php (or any other language):
// Include header HTML document into index.php
The reason for not making the DOCTYPE strict is my concern that a strict doctype would not be "compatible" with older browsers.
Is this a possibility or reason for concern?
I will be learning PHP as well as Javascript in the next few months. For the time being I wanted to make some base pages to be found by search engines.
Using a strict DOCTYPE won't cause any issues with older browsers, HTML4.01 strict won't even cause problems with messy markup. If you code your HTML document properly, no hiccups can occur, so if that is accounted for then you're absolutely safe using a strict DOCTYPE. It's the way to go. I'd also recommend going with HTML 4.01 strict as that is the current standard (rather than using any flavors of XHTML).
Thanks, Kohoutek. I will use this:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
Quick follow up, if I use the above post Strict code should I delete the extra code other than HTML in this line I originally had? --

That attribute needs to go as you're using HTML, so something like this:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<title>Add Ttitle</title>
<meta name="description" content=""">
<meta name="keywords" content="">
<meta name="author" content="">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/main.css" media="screen">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/print.css" media="print">
<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/vnd.microsoft.icon" href="/favicon.ico">
Thanks, Kohoutek. I will use that as a guideline.
The most up-to-date doctype—which will also serve you well into the future—is this:
<!DOCTYPE html>

<meta charset="utf-8">
That's what I use now. It's simpler, and all you need these days.
It's not a huge issue what doctype you have, as long as you have one, but certainly go for strict if not the one above. Transitional is only for very old websites.
Thanks, Ralph. I studied most of css and html fairly thoroughly over the past few months but then realized I knew little about the stuff goes at the very top of an html page.
I use html5 doctype for all my sites now, is there a downside to doing so?
Just remember that html5 is still in draft mode. The current standard still is HTML 4.01 and the recommended version by the W3C.
Please note that I'm not in any way recommending against using html5. I use html5 occasionally, many use HTML4.01 with the new html doctype. I'm a bit old-school in that regard. If I use HTML 4.01, I'd like to reflect that in the DOCTYPE. It's a matter of preference and you can't go wrong with either.
More information:
The doctype I included above is really a generic one that is fine for any flavor of HTML, so far as I know. From a browser's point of view, there is either a doctype or there isn't. If no dictype, it goes into quirks mode; if there is a doctype, it assumes it's a modern site. that's my understanding, anyhow.
Which doctype you use will matter to a validator, but that's kind of irrelevant.
It isn't valid for HTML 1 as HTML 1 doesn't allow a doctype.
It is valid for any version of HTML from HTML 2 through HTML 4 which are SGML based specifications and where that doctype is the short version of the SGML identifier for the type of document that the standard is for.
It is also valid for HTML 5 which like HTML 1 isn't SGML compatible and therefore doesn't follow the document definition standards but which unlike HTML 1 through HTML 4 actually defines that as an HTML tag. So while the same doctype works for HTML 5 as for HTML 2 - one is SGML while the other is THLM.
Thanks for clarifying, Stephen.
I'm not losing any sleep over that one.
one is SGML while the other is THLM.
Is that last one a typo or another darned initialism I've gotta learn?
Switching to Strict has caused a problem.
There were unwanted spaces below several images which I corrected by applying
display: block
However, some 728 x 90 java script ads that are enclosed in
 still have the unwanted small space below them despite applying
display: block;
vertical-align: bottom;
to the div.
These java script ads are reacting like images but not corrected by the same solution as images were.
Is there some code to put in the div containing the java script to get rid of the space below each ad?
A deliberate typo - since HTML 5 isn't SGML it can't be a markup language since SGML is the standard for defining markup languages. Therefore it must be something else - perhaps a Text HyperLanguage Markdown or something instead. Anyway HTML 5 is non-standard where HTML 2 through 4 all followed the standards. Obviously those involved in HTML 5 don't care about standards.
Can you provide a link?
Victorinox, here is a link: http://www.nanoweather.com
It's the small black space below each of the 3 horizontal rectangular ads.
I also had it below the images on the right and left sidebars but {display: block;} on the images fixed it.
Here is an enlarged screencap showing the gap or space I refered to:
