The Voice Is the Voice of Netanyahu
As PM Ehud Olmert attempts to regain control over the government and thwart his adversaries in the right, the words coming from the PM seem more and more to resemble those of opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu.
Over the last few weeks, the Israeli government has changed dramatically, as manifested by Yisrael Beiteinu leader Avigdor Lieberman's entry into the coalition. But the dispute over the personality and outlook of the minister-to-be for strategic threats has concealed a more important and more interesting change: Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has adopted the positions of Likud Chairman Benjamin Netanyahu.
Whoever doesn't believe this to be the case should read the speeches Olmert and Netanyahu gave in the Knesset when the government was sworn in about six months ago. At the time, Olmert spoke about setting the state's border and evacuating settlements in the West Bank as the lifeline of Zionism, and Netanyahu told him to concentrate on the Iranian threat instead of moving settlers from one hilltop to another.
Now Olmert is carrying out the Netanyahu policy, point by point. The prime minister is sending veiled threats to Iran, burying the convergence plan and allowing accelerated construction in settlements. His social-economic policy, too, was copied from Netanyahu. Who needs a social welfare minister? Let the poor get a job and stop making demands.
Something similar happened to Ariel Sharon when he was stuck without an agenda after the 2003 elections and adopted the proposal of his rival, Amram Mitzna, for a unilateral withdrawal from Gaza. But there is a difference. Mitzna left politics after he lost at the polls, while Netanyahu remains and is steering government policy from the opposition benches. The hands are the hands of Ehud, but the voice is the voice of Bibi.
So what happened? One can argue that the war in Lebanon and the events in Gaza opened Olmert's eyes and made him recognize that his understanding of the threats facing Israel was mistaken. Nonetheless, it appears that political constraints and the prime minister's personality structure were a greater influence.
The strategic threat to Olmert's term of office is not Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and his calls to eliminate the "Zionist regime," but rather the potential desertion of 11 MKs from Kadima back to the Likud. Only such a move would translate Netanyahu's advantage in the polls to a change of government. In order to foil him, Olmert executed a double maneuver: He stole his rival's positions - in order to rule out an ideological excuse on the part of the swing MKs in Kadima - and he split the right-wing camp by bringing Lieberman into the government. The emphasis on the Iranian threat had another function as well: to lock up Amir Peretz and prevent his Labor Party from fleeing the coalition. When the state faces existential danger, as Olmert put it, you don't evade responsibility for its fate.
Those who compared Olmert to Netanyahu and Ehud Barak over the last few months do not understand the prime minister. Olmert does not have their intellectual pretension. Perhaps in the depths of his fortified residence he reads books, listens to symphonies and solves mathematical equations. But the Olmert public persona speaks only about soccer, not Winston Churchill or Charles de Gaulle.
Olmert compensates for his inferiority by quoting from encyclopedias with cunning and with emotional intelligence. He is a far better political operator than Barak or Netanyahu, and not only because of his astonishing success in surviving the war and acquiring Lieberman at a good price. Olmert is more disciplined than they are, and even during the abyss of his fall in the polls, he controlled himself and did not get dragged into giving radio interviews on morning programs - a clear sign of political collapse.
Olmert's weak point is his sensitivity to challenges to his masculinity. Netanyahu understood this when he called him "Smolmert" (a combination of the premier's name and the Hebrew word for "left") during the election campaign. Ever since then the prime minister has made an effort to prove his courage and show that he is the distaff of the left. This has led to Olmert's tendency to use force, to get embroiled in a war with Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah and into total chaos on the Palestinian front - and, it appears, to relinquish the positions that he presented to the public when he was elected, and return to being a Likudnik.

Golovkin vs Angulo
Perro is getting lit up in sparring by this Russian dude! read the text message from Garcia, an assistant trainer for junior lightweight prospect Eloy Perez, who frequently trains in Big Bear.
Alfredo Angulo is a very strong, very competitive, prideful guy who has a great team behind him, but Golovkin is on another level, said Garcia, who says he watched three sparring sessions between the two over the course of one week. His strength, his demeanor, his skill, everything he did in there was just too much for Angulo, which surprised the hell out of me.
Ive seen Angulo spar many times before and hes always the one doing the hurting. Hes so damn tough Ive never seen him take a step back, let alone get hurt. I was expecting him to test this Golovkin guy that Id never seen before, but Superman was in there taking and giving, and he hurt Angulo a couple times, especially to the body. Angulo had to get on his bike against Golovkin, which was just bizarre to see.
Golovkin vs Canelo
Round one:
Alvarez began the session sticking and moving effectively. The young redhead was on his toes when he maneuvered around the casually advancing Golovkin, but he planted his feet every time he let his hands go, including his stiff jab. However, Golovkin picked off most of Alvarezs shots with his gloves as he quickly cut the ring off, occasionally switching stances as he stepped forward. The 2004 Olympian slipped a beautiful left uppercut through Alvarezs guard to score the first significant punch midway through the round. Alvarez loaded up with a retaliatory hook that missed and spun him halfway around. Golovkin didnt jab much, but he landed it whenever he let it go. Alvarez began to look for ways to counter his antagonist in the final minute and scored with a sweet right cross followed by a hook that shook Golovkin down to his shoes. The Kazakh just smiled at him, though. Unfazed, Alvarez stood his ground in the final 30 seconds and took a few hard body shots.
Round two:
Golovkin stalked a little faster while displaying decent head movement and a nice straight, crisp jab. Alvarez definitely felt the pressure as he gave ground without allowing his back to touch the ropes. He used fluid upper-body movement to evade Golovkins short power shots, which prompted co-trainer Jose Reynoso to yell Bien, bien, muy bien! from the corner. Alvarez landed a picture-perfect head-to-body hook combination mid-round. Golovkin fired back but the kid leaned away from the punches. Alvarez tried to counter Golovkin but couldnt get through the older fighters guard. Still, the young mans accuracy backed Golovkin off for the first time during the session. Alvarez followed Golovkin during the final minute but walked into a hard left hook that appeared to rock him with 10 seconds remaining. Alvarez didnt return to his corner after the bell but instead tried to shake out his right leg, which immediately stiffened on impact of Golovkins hook.
Rounds three and four:
Alvarez abandoned his jab and his upper-body movement and took the fight to Golovkin with both hands. Golovkin welcomed the aggression, easily blocking Alvarezs punches while landing most of his. Alvarez sucked it up and even walked forward while attempting to block as much heat as he could, but it was clear that he could not match Golovkins strength or power. Still, the budding young star got in an occasional power punch whenever he let his hands go in bunches. His hook-right combination found the mark but his technique was not as tight as it was at the start of the session and his face was turning beet red from Golovkins punches. The kid showed guts but he didnt merit a single bien from Reynoso in the third round. He didnt hear it until two and half minutes into the fourth round, when he let loose with a blazing five-punch combination. Golovkin dodged or parried most of the shots but Alvarez earned his respect for the round.
Round five:
A tired-looking Alvarez resumed his jab and lateral movement to buy himself a breather. His jab was especially effective when he shot-gunned it. Golovkin neglected his jab and looked to counter Alvarezs left stick with single power punches (the hook in particular). Alvarez did more moving along the ring perimeter (his back now grazing the ropes) than punching, but he got off hard shots when he did let his hands go.
Round six:
Alvarez caught his second wind in the final round, bouncing on his toes with quick one-two combinations. Muy bien! Reynoso yelled after Alvarez landed a right uppercut-right cross combination off the ropes. Golovkin grinned again and attacked Alvarezs body as the kid tried to spin away. They both loaded up with single power punches during the final minute of the round.
It was good stuff and definitely worth the trip. I wasnt the only observer who appreciated the session.
That was great, said Antillon, who is slated to challenge WBA lightweight beltholder Brandon Rios in a cant-miss barnburner on July 9. Two undefeated champions going at it. You dont see this often.

Churches: Wedding gowns make another trip down the aisle
By Jackie R. Broach
The delicate fabric of Olivette Smith's wedding dress has developed a few rips and tears since she walked down the aisle in it with her husband, Charles, in 1947. But it still fits her willowy form perfectly.
Smith, 84, a River Club resident, donned the dress again last week at Pawleys Island Presbyterian Church. The church women had a wedding show case for their annual Girls Night Out event, having members loan wedding dresses and accessories, photo albums and other souvenirs from their big day to put on display.
The highlight of the evening was seeing the dresses make another trip down the aisle as they were modeled for the audience. There were more than a dozen dresses, but only a few were modeled by the women who were married in them.
Smith said she chose to model the dress for the same reason she was married in it.
"It's a tribute to my mother," she said.
It was the fifth time the dress was worn.
Smith's mother, Ann Matilda Etheredge, originally wore the dress 97 years ago when she married Smith's father, Maurice Andris Garr, in Quitman, Ga. He saw her in church and immediately proclaimed she was the prettiest girl he'd ever seen and he was going to marry her, Smith said.
For their honeymoon, they took a train to Valdosta, "just a few miles down the road," she added with a laugh. Their union lasted 52 years and "they were sweethearts all their married life."
The dress was worn next by Smith's sister, Annelle Pridgen, at her wedding in Myrtle Beach in 1939. It was also her parents' 25th wedding anniversary.
Smith was the third and tallest bride to wear it when she married at First Baptist Church in Hardeeville, just north of Savannah. A new panel had to be added to the bottom of the dress each time it was worn to accommodate the height of succeeding brides.
Smith offered the dress to her daughters and a granddaughter when they married, but they turned it down, not favoring its golden color. However, one of Smith's daughters, Maureen Hamilton of Litchfield, wore the dress for a portrait by Alicia Rhett, a painter and actress best remembered for her role as India Wilkes in the 1939 film "Gone with the Wind."
In between wearings, the dress was stored in a cedar box.
"I wish I had preserved it better," Smith said.
Smith's dress missed being the oldest in the show by eight years. That honor went to a dress worn in 1906 in Philadelphia by Emily Sophia Patterson, the grandmother of Jean Wise, the church member who organized the bridal showcase.
Patterson died the year Wise was born, but Wise's mother handed down the dress, along with stories about the woman who wore it.
When her mother first pulled out the dress — handmade by a cousin of Patterson's from cream-colored cotton lawn and lace — Wise was amazed it was still in such good condition.
The dress has been folded up in a department store box at the bottom of a cedar chest for more than a century, but "aside from one little rust spot, it's in perfect condition," Wise said.
However, the delicate fabric tore while it was being donned for the show. And it was itchy, said the model who wore it, Sidney Stuckey, a sixth-grader at Waccamaw Intermediate School.
Wise's grandmother was only about 4 feet, 8 inches tall and weighed less than 90 pounds. The church had to get a preteen to model the dress, because none of the teens or adults could fit into it. Teens were recruited to model most of the dresses.
"Kids are so much bigger now," Wise said.
The inspiration for the showcase was a similar event Wise went to at the church she attended when she lived in Chicago in the 1970s.
"It stuck in my mind," she said.
When she pitched the idea, the church members embraced it and dresses and other wedding items started pouring in.
"Once we got a couple of dresses, the rest just fell into place," Wise said.
Gail Holsclaw modeled the dress she wore when she married Pawleys Island Presbyterian's minister, the Rev. Frank Holsclaw, in 1969 in Newark, Del.
"I just thought it would be a fun thing to do," Gail said.
Frank wanted to see her in the dress again, she added, but it was a ladies-only event.
"Some people took pictures for him," she said. "I think he was sort of pleased I was wearing it."
Doris Shelly, married in 1975 in Saluda, also wore her own dress, eliciting laughter and cheers when she tossed her bouquet on her way back down the aisle. It was promptly stolen by Lee Brockington, drawing more laughs. Brockington's wedding dress, worn in 1990 at Pawleys Island chapel, was also in the show, modeled by Maddy Middleton.
Hilda Simon modeled a white skirt suit she wore to her wedding in 1992.
The newest dress in the show was modeled by Janet Branham, who wore it for her wedding in 2006.
Another treat for guests at the showcase were dresses loaned by Jill Fletcher, who married in 1989 in Greenville, and Renee Middleton, who married in 1991 in Gaffney. The ladies were surprised to find they had worn identical bridal gowns. The dresses were modeled by twins, Ora Parker Eddy and Lora Gahagan Eddy, whose mother, Leigh Eddy was married in a double wedding with her sister in 1993.
It was a fabulous event, models and spectators agreed, and a great chance for the women in attendance to learn more about each other.

NASCAR's most popular driver is making his return this week after spending two weeks on the sidelines due to a concussion. It will be a hot topic for Rob Blount, Dustin Parks, and guest Glenn Locke as NASCAR heads to Martinsville.
At the same time, lots of stories out of Kansas have these three buzzing, most notably the cautions. The new track surface produced 14 cautions, and changed so quickly that many drivers were caught off guard.
At the same time, concussions aside, it was Denny Hamlin also suffering some dizziness from a testing crash at the track. The question becomes, what more can NASCAR do?

Third Word
Behold your Mother... Behold your Son.
Will you risk the hostile stare
should your life
attract or scare?
in you and you in me?
We continue our pilgrimage. The path lies before us. If we have courage, we will endure and come to the heart of the matter. Tracing this labyrinthine path will secure our goal: Jerusalem on a darkened day. This is no maze. We will not get lost. There are no false turns, no cul-de-sacs. We turn away by times, only to find that our path to Jerusalem and the heights of Golgotha follows a closer route. We avoid crevasses and ravines but advance inexorably toward not simply a Cross, but Jesus on that Cross.
Each of us has come from different places and for each of us circumstances are different. But for all of our differences, our feet tread a common path. We may travel at a different pace. Some of us need to take the hillside slowly. Others are more sure-footed.
The darkness impedes our advance but it does not discourage it. The closeness of the clouds, dark and angry is threatening. The attendant wind sometimes takes away our breath. But we continue, some solitary, some with someone whose hand we hold tight.
And Jesus' words are carried again in the dark and on the wind… "Behold… your Mother… your Son…" Those that hear it are alarmed. They look about. Some have not cleared the precipice and cannot see the place Jesus occupies. Those that can, see a veiled woman supported in the arms of a man.
Chilled flesh is shrouded and the visage of the attendants is lost to us. Huddled, High Priest and Temple attendants wrap themselves – protection from the dust and wind, the incessant wind. Soldiers huddle too, wrapped in their capes and turning their faces away from the wind. Mary and John as well huddle together. Conversations are private. And each conversation focuses on the concerns that have gathered here. The fire of each heart burns intemperately. Jesus, struggling with his pain sees his Mother. "Behold your Mother… Behold your Son…"
The elements that provide the weave in this pilgrimage are predicated on love.
And the quality of that love – its depth and character – is best understood as we catch a glimpse of Jesus' death. This is His "Passion" we say. That which is closest to his heart and that which finds expression is His love. Ever the Rabbi from Nazareth, he has much to teach us and we have much to learn. And Golgotha is a teaching moment – always.
Jesus instructed his disciples that when they prayed, they should address Divinity with the intimacy found in a family. We are drawn into a family of God where we use diminutives that still seem inappropriate and over familiar. But the metaphor is not ours. While we might elect a more formal arrangement in keeping with the grandeur of transcendence Jesus shows us a better way. The immanence of God's glory allows God to come closer to us than we are willing to be close to Him.
The metaphor is built on a relationship.
And that relationship is wrought on an anvil of love in the darkened smithy of Golgotha. "Behold your Mother… Behold your Son…" Mary and John are no longer acquaintances. Beyond friends, Mary and John are in a familial relationship that provides a pattern for us.
This is a relationship that challenges our current assumptions. This is a relationship that finds its endurance in the patterns we are familiar with from our own experience. We know what parental responsibilities are and what constitutes a relationship with a Father and with a Mother. The relationship is indissoluble – even death cannot overcome the bond of relationship. Distance cannot overcome it either. Whatever the circumstances, the relationship between a parent and a child – of any age – cannot be broken. As the relationship between parents and children cannot be broken, neither can the relationship among siblings be broken. That personal relationship of endurance and recognition is what Jesus invites his followers into.
Standing at the foot of the Cross, accepting Jesus as our personal saviour is shallow when we fail to recognize the relationship in a larger relationship – living out the veracity of the metaphor Jesus engages. How can I say that I love God, we are reminded, whom I have not seen, when I do not love my brother whom I have seen?
Jesus' brilliance does not dim and the darkness is penetrated as we are drawn by example into a Kingdom. Jesus reigns from a crudely fashioned throne. A nail head fills his palm in place of and orb and in the other hand, in place of a sceptre he grasps another nail head. King of Israel indeed! And in this Kingdom he fashions a relationship.
In this Kingdom, will you risk the hostile stare should your life attract or scare?
In this Kingdom, will you let me answer prayer in you and you in me?
Bless the Lord, fire and heat; sing praise to him and highly exalt him forever.
Bless the Lord, winter cold and summer heat; sing praise to him and highly exalt him forever.
Bless the Lord, dews and falling snow; sing praise to him and highly exalt him forever.
Bless the Lord, nights and days; sing praise to him and highly exalt him forever.
Bless the Lord, light and darkness; sing praise to him and highly exalt him forever.

For the Disabled, a Showplace of a School
By JULIA C. MEAD
Published: September 19, 2004
THE first day of school for the second grade at the Child Development Center of the Hamptons began with show and tell, an activity meant to introduce each child to the rest. Everyone sat on the floor as one child after another was called to sit in a chair and display his trinkets: a rock that reportedly looks like Jupiter, photos of cows taken on a summer vacation in Ireland, a matching pair of pine cones, a hockey trophy. ''I got a concussion last year so I'm not playing hockey this year,'' the trophy's owner explained matter-of-factly.
Haley Sulahian, 7, sat quietly at the rear of the cluster, her ponytail held by a bow of white ribbons studded with pink hearts and her legs splayed out in front of her. Her left leg was encased up to the knee in a purple cast, the right one in pink -- her favorite colors, she said later. Then came her chance to show and tell.
''Everybody turn around and face Haley,'' said Liz Dyer, one of two teachers assigned to the class. ''I think it will be easier that way.'' Haley didn't appear to notice that she wasn't called up to the special chair but instead pulled a stuffed animal from a paper bag and hugged it. Covered in silver fur, the animal had a face like a puppy's. ''What kind of animal is that?'' asked the teacher.
''A seal,'' Haley, who has cerebral palsy, said, her words slightly slurred. ''I got it in Maine.''
Next she displayed a photo, saying something that came out garbled. From behind Haley, her aide, Fanny Wells, explained, ''That's Haley and her cousins.'' Next came a strip of pliable white plastic. ''This is my hospital bracelet,'' Haley said clearly.
''From when you had the operations on your legs?'' the teacher prompted.
Haley nodded, deflecting further questions on the topic by announcing that she had decorated the paper bag holding her treasures with cutouts of fish and stars and real seashells. ''My mom helped me,'' she said.
One little boy raised his hand. ''I like the seashells,'' he said.
Smiling proudly, Haley buried her face in the seal's fur.
It is a challenge to keep disabled and nondisabled students on eye level with each other at all times. But the staff members at the Child Development Center of the Hamptons, a charter school that draws students from 10 districts extending from Hampton Bays to Montauk, says that is just one of many challenges they must meet if it is to fulfill its unusual mission: to fully integrate children with a diversity of disabilities into everything that happens there.
This year, the third since the school received its charter, about 60 percent of the student body are children with handicaps ranging from learning disabilities that can be corrected or ameliorated with therapy to permanent and severe physical and mental handicaps stemming from Down Syndrome, autism and cerebral palsy. The rest are ''regular ed,'' not disabled in any way.
Each classroom has two teachers and no more than 15 students. Each child with physical limitations or other special needs is assigned an aide to attend to each of them, and the staff includes physical, occupational, behavioral and speech therapists.
Since founding its separate preschool in 1997, the Child Development Center of the Hamptons has woven disabled and nondisabled children together in one program. The preschool operates nearby in a former parochial school. But until last spring, the charter school was run out of makeshift space rented from an indoor tennis club. There, the entire program -- kindergarten through sixth grade -- congregated in one huge, noisy room where the classes were held temporarily.
But this year's first day of school, last Monday, was also the first day that about 100 students and more than 40 teachers, therapists and one-on-one aides reported for classes in a new building on Stephen Hands Path. Built on 10.2 acres leased for $1 a year from East Hampton Town, the new building has allowed the center to expand to include seventh graders. It also finally permits it to address in a permanent, lasting way the myriad logistical issues raised by the physical needs of its disabled students.
Dawn Zimmerman Hummel, the center's founder and executive director of its parent foundation, said the building has unusually wide hallways to accommodate a stream of students, several of them in wheelchairs. It has dropped ceilings made of baffled glass to shield autistic students, whose senses tend to be hypersensitive, from the buzzing and glare from fluorescent lights.
''It's hard when you have to rearrange everything,'' Ms. Hummel said. ''We started the preschool that way. It's easier when you start from scratch by designing a new building, by living and breathing it from the beginning.''
The building cost $1.9 million, about $600,00 of it raised from donations.
The new classrooms are also equipped with special wooden chairs that allow wheelchair users to sit at the same kinds of desks as their classmates. Being on eye level equates with equality and promotes meaningful interaction, said Patricia Desiderio, the new principal.
Nancy Piazza has four children enrolled there. Just one, her 7-year-old son Orrin, needs special services. The center's inclusive environment, as opposed to public schools where special education pupils are often segregated in separate classrooms, is more like the real world, she said.
''It's the way life is; not everybody learns the same and not everyone is the same,'' she said. ''But when they're together, they can learn from each other and help each other.''
Just as Haley was lifted from her wheelchair to sit on the floor when the rest of her class did, Adam Friedes, who is 11 and also has cerebral palsy, joined the rest of the sixth grade on the floor to listen as a teacher read aloud from ''The Hobbit.'' Adam's aide straddled the frail-looking youngster between her legs and kept a hand on his chest so he didn't slump forward.
Unlike Haley, whose academic performance sometimes surpasses that of her classmates, Adam is mentally retarded and has less control over his own body, said his mother, Adrienne Friedes, who stopped by at lunchtime.
When the morning's reading time was over, the school's physical therapist, Shannon O'Connell, explained to Adam's aide how to lift him safely and strap him back into his wheelchair.
''When they started reading, they didn't have him on the floor,'' Ms. O'Connell said. ''I told them to move him so he can be with the other kids.''
While Ms. Friedes said the center still needed to iron out some kinks in its new building, related mostly to obtaining the right equipment for her son, she said there was no better place for him. Adam used to attend a special-education school run by the Board of Cooperative Educational Services, but it was in Westhampton Beach and the hourlong commute each way kept him isolated from his own community, she said.
''Now when we go to the supermarket, he calls out to the kids he knows from school,'' she said. ''He's part of a community.''

Crafting a Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership: What Can Be Done
A comprehensive Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) has important implications for both US-EU bilateral trade and the world trading system. If successful, it could strengthen transatlantic economic relations while also spurring trade reforms that could reinvigorate flagging multilateral trade negotiations. Both sides want the TTIP to be a big deal covering all major components of the commercial relationship. They can achieve the pact's ambitious agenda by (1) broadly aligning their respective trade pacts with South Korea and (2) deepening market access commitments covering both tariff and nontariff barriers to trade in goods, agriculture, and services. KORUS and KOREU FTA precedents are instructive but will need to be supplemented or adjusted in three areas if the TTIP is to succeed: intellectual property issues, sanitary and phytosanitary measures, and the environment. In several other areas KORUS-KOREU differences should be easier to bridge, including services, investment, government procurement, and competition policy.

Attempted the Trial version, to watch live sport. Did not work. No confirmation emails sent to say that this was active, or who to send any queries or cancellations to.

If you surf from time to time and you do not have too much mail or web traffic then this service is something to think about.
Powerusers with lots of normal downloads (because DL from normal websites will be counted in the web traffic limit) I can not recommend the service.
If the proxy settings would be configurable to exclude some websites from running over the proxy it would be great.

I would rather have to look up Monoid than see Appendable used for operations that don't fit my notion of appending. I don't care much what things are called as long as it's accurate. Even so, I typically find Haskell's documentation to be not very helpful, because it's aimed towards category theorists. That is, Haskell documentation often seems to take the approach "The reader is familiar with [branch of abstract mathematics], so knows all these concepts. The job of the documentation is to show how standard terminology from [branch of abstract math] is written in Haskell". The problem with this is that most people aren't familiar with general abstract nonsense, and this documentation is useless for those, i.e. most, people. In fact, most people don't care about how abstract nonsense is written in Haskell. They care about solving their particular problems, and are only interested in abstract nonsense to the sense that it can be useful in solving those problems. Overwhelmingly the documentation does not show how particular concepts apply to actual programming problems, or any concrete problems at all. Here is the current complete documentation for Data.Monoid 'mappend', which happens to be a good example of which I speak: An associative operation That could mean anything. There are lots of associative operations. Should I believe the name that somehow this operation is append-like? If so, and I'm using a list instance, where are items appended to? Is it an append onto the tail of the list, or is it really a cons? I would expect the documentation to cover this, but it doesn't. Far too often the documentation fails to provide this sort of useful, practical information. This is the problem faced by an abstract-nonsense unaware user: I want to accomplish [some task]. Some blogger wrote that [monoids, functors, arrows, etc.] provide a good solution. But when I look up [monoids, functors, etc.] in [some academic paper], it doesn't show how these concepts apply to the problem at hand, or indeed any programming problem at all. In fact, I can't even understand what the doc says without first learning about [even more abstract stuff]. So now the user needs to develop a strong background in [some abstract topic] he/she doesn't care about just to figure out *if* that abstract topic could possibly be useful. At this point most users will give up. If instead they had access to documentation that says "[Monoids] are useful programming abstractions because they can solve problems A, B, and C in these manners, and incidentally they can do all this other stuff too", the same users would not only stick with Haskell longer, they would increase their theoretical awareness at the same time. I think even the most elitist Haskell users would think this is a good outcome. Of course this better documentation would need to be written. Somebody upthread (Duncan?) suggested that suitable individuals may not exist, and I agree with that. Of people who understand the material well enough to document it, many are busy doing other work, and many have no interest or are ideologically opposed to writing documentation of this type. This situation reminds me very much of a particularly well-known article by Milton Babbitt, "Who Cares If You Listen." I expect that many Haskellers would find it interesting at the least.

Jo Jo Dancer, Your Life Is Calling
Pryor's raw, black underclass answer to the filmed autobiography. Recovering from third-degree burns, superstar comic Jo Jo Dancer (Pryor) looks back on growing up in a small-town bordello, working his way through the lower echelons of the nightclub circuit (enacting Pryor's great "Mafia club" routine), and finally getting swallowed up by the LA drug scene. Any resemblance to Pryor is, of course, purely coincidental.
Jo Jo Dancer, Your Life Is Calling will be introduced by Hilton Als, author and theater critic at The New Yorker.

The Franciscan Way of being Present to Life and Death
July 21-27, 2017
This retreat uses teachings from the Franciscan tradition—especially from lay Franciscans—and experiential meditations to explore the rich teachings about finding joy in life by looking closely at dying and death.

Discussion in 'Racquets' started by marcusalan, Aug 1, 2011.
& what does it do ?
It's tape... made of lead... That poisonous chemical used in house paint back in the 60's? xD
Anyways, it's just sticky stuff that actually weighs A LOT for a really small piece. In other words, it has a very high weight per square inch, which makes it perfect for us tennis players. Its made for customization of tennis racquets, mainly to add more weight to the racquet. The method of customization with lead tape is almost endless, and it takes some experimenting to hit that holy grail.
Look at 10 and 2 o'clock on the inner hoop of these frames... those silver strips are lead tape

December 21, 1945 The Brooklyn Museum is fortunate in having a comprehensive collection of Pre-Columbian gold and silver which, together with jades, will be on view in a special exhibition from December 20, 1945 through February 17, 1946. Examples of the superlative gold work of the Quimbaya is illustrated by a flask which has a standing female figure on one side and a male figure on the other. Among the ornaments of the Peruvian nobility are two gold headbands with an all-over design of birds, and a pair of large ear plugs showing the Sky God beneath the canopy. A rare jade and shell necklace from the Mayas has a large central medallion in the form of a fish. The large gold breastplates of Cocle, Panama, are about the most handsome in the New World; one in the Brooklyn Museum Collection has rich repousse ornament of human and animal figures. The variety of amulets from Costa Rica in jade and gold is well represented in this exhibition. A striking piece is a realistic scorpion which is one of the many types of animals displayed.
The wealth of gold in the New World, the skill with which it was worked into ornaments and utensils has captivated Europeans since the discovery of America. This was true not only of Mexico but of Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru. The Spaniards looked upon this metalwork as exchange but the Indians prized it as adornment. A warrior chief or nobleman in the aristocratic society of Colombia wore rich ornaments as a sign of rank: earrings, nose rings, necklaces and breastplates. In Costa Rica (The Rich Coast), so named by Columbus because of the abundance of gold he saw there, the variety of amulets was great, realistic jaguars, harpy eagles, bats, etc., as well as human figures or gods in human form.
Mantles were fastened with large, handsome pins, and flat silver fish or birds were often sewed to Peruvian dresses. Tweezers, antedating razors were made in various shapes and sizes. Little spoons for removing wax from the ears were fashioned in gold, silver or bronze. In elaborate burials in Peru, flat, rather stylized masks of gold or silver were placed over mummy bundles. Much of this material, as well as metal cups, flasks and bowls, was found in deep graves, for it was the custom of many of these ancient peoples to bury with their dead such treasure, together with painted pottery and fine weavings.
To the Mexicans and Mayas jade was more valuable than gold or silver, having symbolic meaning and therapeutic qualities. When Moctezuma promised the Spaniards even more precious gifts than the gold he had already presented, he was speaking of jade. Noblemen of Mexico and Costa Rica wore jade ornaments as a sign of rank. Fine tools such as celts and axes, were made of the beautiful stone. This was the choicest possession of the Aztecs but it was only green stone to the Europeans.
This exhibit of Pre-Columbian metalwork and jade carving, from Mexico to Peru, will illustrate more than the technical achievement. It will reveal much of the life of the high civilization which flourished for centuries before the Spanish Conquest.

Progress Journal
Petticoat Version 2
This is my re-enforced petti and I'm so pleased with it.
I went out and bought two lengths of plastic pipe, and bent them into hoops with the help of David. (They were hard to bend D:) And I've also connected them with lengths of fabric and made a waistband to attatch the fabric strips to, holding it all together. I'm wearing my original petti over the top to give it that softness.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — An attorney for Michael Jackson's doctor says the jury in his involuntary manslaughter trial should be sequestered to prevent contamination by TV pundits — specifically Nancy Grace.
J. Michael Flanagan referred in a pretrial hearing Wednesday to coverage of the Casey Anthony trial in Florida and said Dr. Conrad Murray's trial is expected to get even wider coverage. He said telling jurors not to watch TV will be insufficient.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Michael Pastor said the courts can't afford to put up jurors at a hotel and he thinks it's unnecessary.
Murray has pleaded not guilty to causing Jackson's death on June 25, 2009, with an overdose of propofol and other sedatives.
The judge said the trial will begin on Sept. 8 with prospective jurors being given questionnaires.

Timbaland Reveals New Album Title, Previews Another Jay Z Song
Subscribe to B93 on
Timbaland had an eventful time last night, but it wasn't without some new reveals. The superproducer was getting the crowd ready for Jay Z during his Magna Carta tour stop in Belgium when he once again previewed '4 Horsemen' featuring Drake and Hov.
He then announced the name of his next album: 'Textbook Timbo.' The project was originally called 'Shock Value 3′ before its name was changed to 'Rebirth' last spring.
The Virginia native later stopped by Yankees second baseman and Roc Nation Sports signee Robinson Cano's birthday bash in Belgium, where he previewed another song. He played 'Bounce,' which also features Jay Z, who was standing to the side with his fitted cap worn low during the festivities. On first impression, 'Bounce' has the same heavy, clubby feel of '4 Horsemen.'
'Textbook Timbo' has no release date as of yet.

This Monroe Strut and Coil Spring Assembly is designed for Toyota Camrys of model years '95 and '96. MacPherson Strut and Coil Spring Assembly are the most prevalent type used in vehicle suspension systems, and combine a shock absorber and a spring in a single device. The Strut and Coil Spring Assembly act as a dampener similar to shock absorbers, yet they also act as support for the vehicle's suspension system. Toyota Camrys from 1995 and 1996 can use this component. Different makes and models probably will not be compatible, and this part is not to be installed on those models.

Drvload Command-Line Options
Updated: October 20, 2013
Applies To: Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2012 R2
The Drvload tool adds out-of-box drivers to a booted Windows Preinstallation Environment (Windows PE) image. It takes one or more driver .inf files as inputs. To add a driver to an offline Windows PE image, use the Deployment Image Servicing and Management (DISM) tool. For more information, see Add and Remove Drivers Offline Using DISM.
If the driver .inf file requires a reboot, Windows PE will ignore the request. If the driver .sys file requires a reboot, then the driver cannot be added with Drvload. For more information, see Device Drivers and Deployment Overview and DISM Driver Servicing Command-Line Options.
Drivers added using the Drvload tool are marked as the preferred driver for that device. If you add an updated driver during Windows Setup, the driver that you added with Drvload takes precedence.
The following command-line options are available for Drvload.
drvload inf_path [,inf_path [...]] [/?]
Displays usage information.
Specifies the path to the driver .inf file. The path can contain environment variables.
If any drivers were not installed, then Drvload will return a non-zero status (%errorlevel%).

Really nice. Its too bad you can't do commercial work with CE for clients. I really like it more as Lumion although booth have their pro/cons.
You did the trees on your own or are they from the SDK?

Thank you, it's too bad CE is very expensive . It may be more difficult than lumion or lumenrt but it's a real world building tool and gives way more options to adjust. And unlike other engines, it's pure real time (no baking) . I just use the most basic functions. Most of vegetation is from the sdk but I also use some plants that users of crydev are making.
Wow. Very impressive! Framerate is low but I presume that'd down to cranking settings up top and the graphics card not quite handling it, but the actual visuals are fantastic, really.... the animated trees are a really nice touch. Interesting tech!

The trees are comming with the sdk (not mine )and their move depends on the wind settings. The framerate is bad because of the capture. In my pc (and in any gaming pc that can handle crysis 2) it runs smooth and the image is very clean because there isn't any image compression. When you see cryengine running on a pc is far more impressive than a video. You can move free in all directions and without illumination baking you can make every change instantly (they call it "what you see is what you get")!
I saw this a few days ago in youtube, and now I see it in here. Great Job man, I'm starting an investigation on this subject at College about Virtual environments and this is certainly something to look up to.
Again, really nice Job. I'll start using CryEngine this week, and I hope I can share somthing someday soon.
I have done a few videos for architecture with CE I also work with lumion and there is no comparason. CE its much better but it is really time consuming and you need alot of time to put something together. why? because everything is especific and only for CE. the pipe line its a little complicated and sometimes you get errors with the geometry because of the realtime light calculation the geometry must be perfect (no sketchup models or crapy 3d objects) I think that CE engine its not meant to be use for little house projects, I think that CE is made for URBAN projects, Huge hospitals, schools or things like that. it consumes alot of time and is not enough for a little house project if you know what I mean.
here I couple really nice things that I have found with time about architecture visulization and CRYENGINE
Version 1: Step-through construction of the model house - YouTube
ENODO present : The Urban Life System - YouTube
Nice architecture visulization! Rendering effect is awesome!

Respecting Nature's Gift of Food
Hawaiians share a deep-rooted cultural respect for the natural resources of the islands. From locally-sourced products to ingredients that are grown sustainably, without damage to the environment, our harvesting and sourcing processes incorporate our Hawaiian love and respect for nature.
Practicing Sustainability
At Royal Hawaiian, we show our respect for the land and Hawaii's delicate ecosystem by practicing sustainability. We conserve water by relying almost exclusively on rainfall for irrigation. We've also acquired over a thousand acres of neglected macadamia orchards and rejuvenated the land by planting new trees. Giving back to nature is the Royal Hawaiian way.
Turning Waste Into Fuel
We recycle and reuse almost every part of the nut to fuel our next batch of home-grown macadamias. The hulls of the nuts are composted to renourish the soil and fertilize the rest of our orchards. Used macadamia nut shells are burned as an energy source to power our facilities. Our macadamia nuts are a gift from nature that never stop giving.

Whether you are selecting a school for a young child or
assisting an older one, evaluating a day or a boarding
program – choosing a school is a major family
decision. Making the right choice will first involve
understanding your child's needs and your family's values
and expectations, then examining the distinct features of
each school you are considering. Below are some of the
questions we often hear while prospective parents and students
are making their decision. We hope that if you have a specific
question you will e-mail us, or call us at call 423-267-5902,
email us here.
What is Baylor's tuition?
As you'd expect, a Baylor School education requires a significant investment. For the 2017-18 school year, Baylor tuition is: Day Tuition: $23,980Domestic Boarding Tuition: $48,842International Boarding Tuition: $52,430
What charges are not included in the price of tuition?
Uniforms, books, voluntary trip fees (such as weekend Walkabout trips), Campus Store and student center charges.
How do I go about arranging a visit to campus and meeting with an admission counselor?
Brochures and websites are helpful, but there is no substitute for a visit to obtain first hand knowledge of a school. Please call our Office of Admission at 423-267-5902 to schedule an appointment.
What is required to receive an admission decision?
The official campus visit, main application, teacher recommendations, a personal recommendation, school transcript, and SSAT test results. The steps and deadlines involved in our application process are outlined in the admission packet and on this website, but your child will need your assistance and guidance along the way. Our admission counselors are also available to assist throughout the process.
Should we withdraw our application if our child performs poorly on the entrance exam?
While the entrance exam is important, it is not the only tool used to determine if a child is the right fit for Baylor. Grades, teacher recommendations, extracurricular activities, and the personal campus visit are equally important to the admission process. If there are serious concerns about testing, a conversation with the admission director would be advisable.
Who makes the final decision?
We strongly encourage parents of children entering grades 6-8 to make the final decision of which school your child will attend. In the case of students applying to the upper school in either the boarding or day programs, the majority of parents agree on the list of schools to which the student will apply, allowing the student to make the final decision. With older children, it is vitally important to understand each other's expectations before applying.
Does Baylor give scholarships?
The only scholarships available are for a select number of highly qualified boarding students through our Distinguished Scholars Program. Otherwise, the assistance Baylor offers is need-based financial aid as determined by the school and Student Services (SSS). Baylor's financial aid is designed to supplement family resources to allow qualified students to enroll who would not have been able to do so without the school's assistance.
Is there any sort of financial aid available?
Each year, Baylor offers need-based financial aid to make its educational experience accessible to qualified students, regardless of their socio-economic back ground. To receive information about financial aid, please check the appropriate box on the admission application, or call the Admission Office at 267-5902. Requests for financial aid information will not affect admission decisions.
What is summer brush-up?
New day students who will be entering ninth grade in the fall may want to consider participating in our Summer Brush-Up program. The program is designed to give new students a chance to become familiar with the school's academic program, learn some important technology, and meet Baylor students and faculty.
Are decisions regarding admission and financial aid related?
All admission decisions are made without regard for financial need.
Must I repay this award?
No. A financial award is used to offset the cost of your child's education.
How much financial aid may I expect to receive?
Each award is individualized, based upon the financial need of each applicant.
Besides athletics, what can my child do after school?
There are a number of activities a student can participate in to satisfy their after school requirement. We offer theatre, dance, art, robotics, community service, and outdoor adventure through our Walkabout program. The options are explained in detail on this website.
What kind of computer should my child bring to school?
All Baylor students are required to bring iPads to school, and more information about the Baylor iPad initiative can be found here. Students may want to bring a laptop as well, but that is not required. Baylor provides over 650 computers on campus, mini labs in various classrooms, and portable iPad and laptop carts

The RBA has left interest rates on hold at 2.5 per cent in line with market expectations
A survey of 13 economists showed all expected rates to stay on hold following the statement by Glenn Stevens at the February board meeting, where he said he was not inclined to cut rates from their record low.
"On present indications, the most prudent course is likely to be a period of stability in interest rates," he said.
RP Data national research director Tim Lawless said from a housing perspective strong conditions have driven investment in the market which is healthy for the economy.
"More housing market activity has translated to greater developer confidence and a consistent upwards trend in new building approvals.
"RP Data's February results showed flat capital city dwelling values which will probably reassure policy makers such as the RBA that the unsustainably high rate of capital gain that has been evident since June last year may be winding down," he said.
More to come.
