Indeed, Husserl calls intentionality the "fundental property of consciousness" and the "principle theme of phenomenolgy". 1989-01-01T00:00:00Z "We-Subjectivity": Husserl on community and communal constitution http://hdl.handle.net/10211.2/3506 "We-Subjectivity": Husserl on community and communal constitution McIntyre, Ronald Follesdal, Dagfinn; Fricke, Christel In Cartesian Meditations Husserl famously offers an account of how an individual subject can experience others as being centers of consciousness radically independent of its own and, subsequently, how the individual subject then constitutes the experienced world as objectively there for everyone. But Husserl's account of intersubjectivity includes many further dimensions. A sense of others is a necessary component of almost all of our experiences. Even my experience of myself, whether as a psychophysical natural organism or as a full-fledged person functioning in society, depends on my having a sense of others and on my entering into actual relationships with them. Furthermore, I experience the world as including, not just other individuals like me, but communities of individuals and I experience myself as a member of various of these communities. As a member of a community, I conceive of myself and others as having a mutual or com-munal "take" on the world and on ourselves. Communities function, not merely as multiple subjects with similar experiences and common interests, but as a "we" that – together – has a common experience and understanding of how things are or ought to be. Even the natural world is intersubjective, not merely because it is experienced by a plurality of individual subjects whose experiences happen to have a common object, but because the experience that constitutes it is itself intersubjective or communal. The subjectivity that constitutes the world is, Husserl says, "we-subjectivity".1 In this essay, I shall explore some of these communal dimensions of intersubjectivity. 2012-01-01T00:00:00Z Whitehead and Bradley: a comparative analysis http://hdl.handle.net/10211.2/3329 Whitehead and Bradley: a comparative analysis McHenry, Leemon B., 1956- The present study attempts to examine the affinities and contrasts in the metaphysical systems of A. N. Whitehead and F. H. Bradley. As a comparative analysis, however, the study does not attempt to give equal attention to every aspect of both thinkers; rather, its primary concern is the influence of Bradley on Whitehead and the problems that bind them together under the genre of philosophical idealism. But aside from this historical concern, the book also attempts to work out solutions to metaphysical problems, especially those that occur where process philosophy and absolute idealism conflict. I generally defend Whitehead's view where conflict does arise, but I am not a follower of the Whiteheadian school that has formed in praise of his thought. Nevertheless, unlike the vast majority of analytic philosophers working in the field today, I do not think that total neglect is the proper approach to appreciating his genius. In my view, Whitehead and Bradley rank among the greatest thinkers in the Western tradition alongside of Descartes, Kant, Hume, Leibniz, Spinoza, and Hegel. 1992-01-01T00:00:00Z The multiverse conjecture: Whitehead's cosmic epochs and contemporary cosmology http://hdl.handle.net/10211.2/3306 The multiverse conjecture: Whitehead's cosmic epochs and contemporary cosmology McHenry, Leemon B., 1956- Recent developments in cosmology and particle physics have led to speculation that our universe is merely one of a multitude of universes. While this notion, the multiverse hypothesis, is highly contested as legitimate science, it has nonetheless struck many physicists as a necessary consequence of the effort to construct a final, unified theory. In Process and Reality (1929), his magnum opus, Alfred North Whitehead advanced a cosmology as part of his general metaphysics of process. Part of this project involved a theory of cosmic epochs which bears a remarkable affinity to current cosmological speculation. This paper demonstrates how the basic framework of a multiverse theory is already present in Whitehead's cosmology and defends the necessity of speculation in the quest for an explanatory description. 2011-01-01T00:00:00Z

text: Declaration of the Naga National League for Democracy The Naga people of Burma are independently residing at the Naga Hill Tract, North of Saggaing division since long ancient time as by setting up the villages, accordance with their particular clans. The Naga nationalities never fall under the rule of any ancient king of Burma. Although the colonialist English themselves used the some portion of Naga area of Burma for the convenient road communication, they did not rule the Naga area of Burma absolutely. The Naga representatives attended the Pinglon conference in 1947 just as the observers. Burmese government forcibly ruled the Naga Hill Tract of Burma only after its independence in 1948. For example, Burmese Army raided the Sawlaw village of Naga area by using three inches mortars in 1951. So the Naga people started armed revolution, as they dislike such kind of ruling by force upon them. Although the majority Burman organized the other nationalities by shouting to equally enjoy the fruitfulness of Independence and to stay together peacefully, the Naga people practically did not receive any deserving right at all. Development is still nothing in Naga Hill Tract. Only the majority Burman has monopolized the all fruitful rights. Moreover the situation of ethnic nationalities were worse than before just after Ne Wins military coup in 1962. The dictator Ne Win oppressed all nationalities and limited the all affairs of ethnic nationalities including political, economical, social and religious affairs by creating the acts and law, as he liked. In 1988 also there was a most barbarous military crackdown on historic mass uprising for democracy and anti-dictatorship. Burmese people were facing with several troubles likes killing, arresting, inhumane torturing and fleeing to safe areas. As other ethnic nationalities under Slorcs regime, Naga people are not recovering from pauperism yet because they are facing with several human rights violations, forced lobours, religious oppression and lawless seizing of their foods and commodities by army. Although the Slorc is shouting a pleasant voice as border area development program, no development program is implemented yet in Naga Hill Tract, a border area. Naga people are neglected by Slorc in every corner including economic, education and health affairs as the most backward ethnic minority of Burma. We the Naga people strongly condemn the Slorc, for neglecting the real wish of Burmese people by not transferring state power to National League for Democracy, which got landslide victory in 1990 general election. Moreover we strongly believe that the National convention called by the Slorc is sham as the wish of people are absolutely neglected in this convention. Then we believe that the emergence of tripartite dialogue among ethnic leaders, Daw Aung San Suu Kyi led democratic forces and Slorc, is inevitable and most important work to restore peace, justness, liberty and prosperity in Burma. Different ethnic groups are joining hand-in-hand with democratic forces, as they believe that they will be able to enjoy the deserving and fruitful rights only when the real democratic society is set up in Burma. We the Naga people of Burma had formed the Naga National League for Democracy (NNLD) on 8.8.97 to participate actively and systematically in the democracy revolution of Burma by mean of non- violent political struggle. Executive committee Naga National League for Democracy (NNLD) Dated- 8.8.97 Aims and objectives 1. To eradicate the military dictatorship and to set up democratic state of Burma. 2. To set up Naga state according to historic boundary. 3. To set up real Federal Union of Burma, which can fully grant the liberty, justness and self-determination. Future work programs 1. To raise the education and health standard of Naga people. 2. To educate the Naga people to achieve political alertness. 3. To construct mutual understanding, mutual respect and fraternal relationship with all ethnic nationalities, all revolutionary groups and all parties. 4. To strive to participate in the alliance works of revolutionary movement. Executive Committee 1. Mr. Nuree (Sosa) -President 2. Mr. L. Longsa -General Secretary 3. Mr. Lase -Treasurer 4. Mr. Yong Tsii Mie -Organizer 5. Mr. Sevitho -Organizer ****************************************************** Burma moves trade centre closer home The Burmese military junta, the State Low and Order Restoration Council, has evinced keen interest in having a good border trade relationship India. The SLORC recently shifted its main shopping centre form Tamu in Kabow Valley, under the Saggaing division of Burma, to Namphalong in the same division a few yards away form Moreh, a free tread centre at the Manipur-Burma border. Tamu has a population of about three lakhs and is mainly inhabited by Burmese. There are seven divisions and seven states in Burma divisions being areas with Burmese majority and states beings those with ethnic majority. The change from Tamu to Namphalong was made following an increase in the volume of trade between India and Burma, a businessman at Tamu said quoting Captain Kawn Zan Oo, chairman of the Township Law and Order Restoration Council, Tamu. The trade centre was changed, as businessman from Moreh had to travel about four-Km to Tamu, while Namphalong is very near Moreh. Moreover, anyone willing to enter Tamu has to pay Rs. 10 as border pass. U Pow Ka, a businessman at Tamu told The Asian Age that the town has a small population. He expressed unhappiness that before the opening of Namphalong Bazaar, goods worth about Rs. 10,000 (Indian currencies) were sold daily at Tamu. But at present, goods worth only Rs. 2,000 are sold, he added. Business has been thriving in Namphalong Bazaar. Tang Two Co, a businesswoman said goods worth about Rs. 7,000 are sold everyday. Buyers are Indian Burmese immigration officials said, over Rs 3 crore have been collected monthly as levy from free trade. Introduction of taxis from Namphalong to Tamu recently has been a boon to the traders and customers. The primitive, Tonga (horse carrier) is still a popular mode of transport between Namphalong and Tamu. News from The Asian Age newspaper dated-10th Oct. 1997. ************************************************* Six killed in raid by gunmen at Moreh Burmese market torched, border sealed, situation tense Imphal, Oct 12 : The Myanmarese market complex at Namphlong on the Indo-Myanmar border was burnt down and six persons including four security personnel were gunned down in a raid carried out by unknown gunmen late last night, unofficial sources said. Following the incident the international border has been sealed and Burmese authorities have made massive security deployment at the area. The border gates have also been closed. Reports from across the border said armed persons set ablaze the newly opened market complex of Myanmar at about 11:30 PM and the six Burmese personnel were shot dead. However, sources at Moreh said three Burmese immigration officials were killed in the incident. No official report of exact number of casualty was available. The market complex is located just across the gate Number 2 if the intentional border at Moreh. It was opened in mid April this year. As the Tamu market of Myanmar has been shifted to this new complex trading operations at Moreh on Indian side has been severely affected. Sources at Moreh suspected the hand of Kuki militants and Tamil traders in the raid. Burmese authorities also charged that the firing came from a near-by Indian security post. Dead body of a Tamil who was suspected to have been involved in the arson was recovered with bullet wounds at Canan Veng near the gate No.2 which is close to the market complex. The value of properties destroyed by the fire has been estimated at 15 crore Burmese Kyats, the sources said. Some Burmese officials are also believed to be injured in the shootout.

I'm back! And the little time away was just wonderful. I feel rested, motivated, and excited to tackle a new year with my 2012 goals, mission statement, and future letter to myself all ready to go. Which, by the way, is exactly why I love a new year. It's the gift of new beginnings and fresh starts. And these rooms of clean white capture my mood perfectly:
I love the single edison bulb hanging here. When in doubt, simple is always the best route.

text: Book three in the author's Alan Bernhardt series (Silent Witness, 1990; Bernhardt's Edge, 1988) has a token appearance by Frank Hastings, SFPD, and a practically invisible Bernhardt, who merely hovers at the edges of his case: to find out who wealthy, powerful real-estate mogul Preston Daniels was carting to the Cape Cod dump in a garbage bag. Daniels's stepdaughter, the unattractive, unloved Diane Cutler, spied on the dump run, as did her drug-supplier/sometime-lover Jeff. When Jeff dies ``accidentally'' and someone starts stalking her after she's hotfooted it cross-country for safety, Diane admits she's scared, and Bernhardt steps in--just as Daniels's personal pilot/hit-man and a crooked Cape police chief demand bigger silence payoffs. Which of Daniels many blond bimbo mistresses got dumped? Did his wife know, or even care? How many times will Daniels kill to keep the first death a secret? At least once--before Bernhardt, the tycoon, the pilot, and the sheriff collide in a dark, smelly corner of the landfill. No surprises, just steady, quiet narration professionally humming to an inevitable conclusion. A civilized way to be scared.

hemp hats and hemp caps
The hemp hats come in a variety of natural colours including khaki, denim, black and navy. Hemp is an ideal fabric for hats, one reason is that it is ultra-durable. These hats will last and last. They will outlast most other fabrics. Hemp fabric is one of the strongest natural fabrics. It will also hold it's shape, hemp does not stretch or pull. The best thing about hemo is that the more you wear it the softer it gets. In time your hemp hat will feel wonderfully soft. Hemp is also a porous fabric. Allowing it to absorb dye and hold it's colour longer. This also makes it more breathable, keeping your head cooler on hot summer days. When in the sun, hemp is your friend – it is also resistant to ultraviolet light. In winter, hemp is your friend – it is also naturally resistant to mould and mildew. At ecoo we love hemp for all these reasons. But another reason we love hemp is that it is more sustainable. Hemp requires less land and water to grow than cotton. Hemp plants do not exhaust the soi, quite the opposite. Hemp roots bury deep and hold the soil. The leaves fall about the ground and enrich the next generation of crops. This also keeps the moisture in the soil. Next time you buy, buy hemp! You will be saving yourself money in the long run and you will be helping maintain our beautiful planet.

The Chandelier at The Cosmopolitan
When it comes to piano bars, it doesn't get more visually stunning than the Chandelier at the Cosmopolitan. A tri-level crystal-enshrouded bar, the hotspot serves as a sparkling playground, art exhibit and cocktail haven all at once.
The top three drinks of choice? The Forbidden Fruit, a complex apple-forward cocktail; the Infinite Playlist, a variation on the old fashioned and the Verbena, a highly aromatic aperitif with hints of lemon and ginger.
The Chandelier is not only gorgeous, but carries itself with an upscale attitude that still manages to not feel pretentious.
Napoleon's Piano Bar at Caesar's Palace
In the mood for a drink, some standup and two dueling pianos? Then place your bets on the live entertainment at Napoleon's, situated off Paris' promenade.
This lively joint boasts an old Vegas showroom ambience, complete with wood-paneled walls lined with gold, red curtains and a black and white checkered floor. Revelry is the special of the day, as dueling pianists go head to head every night.
Beware: Although the tourist attraction has no cover charge, it does have a two-drink minimum.

As scientists from both BP and the government are collecting data,they are also preparing for their day in court to give testimony.

McIntosh, M (2015) Thinking the twenty-first century: ideas for the new political economy. Greenleaf Publishing. ISBN 9781783531745
Combining science, philosophy, politics and economics, 'Thinking the Twenty-First Century' takes a provocative look at the changes required to build a new global political economy. McIntosh charts five system changes essential to this transition: globality and Earth awareness; the rebalancing of science and awe; peacefulness and the feminisation of decision-making; the re-organisation of our institutions; and, evolution, adaptation and learning. That they are all connected should be obvious, but that they are written about together is less common. McIntosh argues that these five changes are already underway and need to be accelerated.

Lithops lesliei burchellii - Living Stones - Indigenous South African Succulent - 10 Seeds
Seeds for Africa
Lithops is a genus of succulent plants in the ice plant family, Aizoaceae. Members of the genus are native to southern Africa. The name is derived from the Ancient Greek words lithos, meaning "stone," ops, meaning "face," referring to the stone-like appearance of the plants. They avoid being eaten by blending in with surrounding rocks and are often known as pebble plants or living stones. The formation of the name from the Greek "-ops" means that even a single plant is called a Lithops.
Distinguished from subspecies lesliei by colour and markings.
USDA Zone - 9

'RHONY' Star Countess LuAnn De Lesseps: How To Survive A Break-Up
The Countess wants you to look gorgeous, trendy, and warm at all times this fall season, so she's offering HollywoodLifers her best advice! Check out her answers to your questions below!
What is the best way to transition your wardrobe from summer to fall? How do you walk elegantly in high heels? And how do you mend a broken heart? Read on for The Real Housewives of New York City star, Countess LuAnn De Lesseps' answers to your questions in her exclusive weekly Hollywoodlife.com advice column.
What's the best way to transition your wardrobe from summer to fall? –Casey K. from Long Island, NY.
The best way to transition your wardrobe from summer to fall is by layering. Keep in mind when you shop for summer that you can wear a summer dress into the fall with a cardigan and a pair of boots. A light trench coat is also terrific for the fall because the weather is so unpredictable. LAYERS!
Do you have any tips for walking in super high heels (or wearing heels all day)? –Lily R. from Kansas City, MS.
The key to wearing super high heels or wearing heels all day is to buy quality shoes that fit you well. If you are going to walk any distance, take off your heels and put on stylish ballet flats. I couldn't live without my CitySlips. Make sure you put your heels back on about ten minutes before going back to your office so your feet can readjust.

What's the best way to heal after a breakup? –Taylor S. from Hartford, Ct.
The best way to heal after a breakup is to take enough time to understand what went wrong and what you are looking for in your next relationship. While it's tempting to jump right into another relationship, if you don't take time to reflect, you risk making the same mistakes again. Spend time with your girlfriends and keep yourself busy doing things that make you happy. REFLECT!

Lord Dixon-Smith: The noble Lord, Lord Whitty, will be happy to hear that I am glad to be persuaded. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment.
Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
Clause 3 [Non-target years: default rules]:
Lord Dixon-Smith moved Amendment No. 7:
The noble Lord said: I hope that this group of amendments will prove to be rather less controversial than our discussion so far. The Bill provides a date of 16th July 2004 as the end of the first target year. My question concerns 16th July, not 2004. We have a complete system of government and local government dedicated to accounting for everything on an annual base with 5th April as the end of the year. That has become inalienable, although I am bound to say that I can find no more logic in 5th April than I can in 16th July, except that except that 5th April happens to be there. It seems a little funny peculiar, to put it that way, that on this specific issueand there may well be otherswe will have to deal with a different year and a different accounting base. It may be that something is written in the European directive which means that it has to be 16th July, but surely if it were 5th April in that year, since that is before 16th July, that would not be a problem. I cannot help wondering if we are not in the business of arguing about square tomatoessorry, cubic tomatoesand straight bananas.
It would be interesting to know what the irredeemable logic is of this rather odd date. I beg to move.
Lord Hanningfield: I support my noble friend Lord Dixon Smith on the amendment. As I said earlier, I am leader of a large local authority and we have at least a dozen waste contracts of one kind or another, all of which are April to April, as are all our financial proposals and reckonings. If we are to introduce new jobs, they should really be done April to April. When I talk to my local government colleagues and the Local Government Association, none of us can understand why it should be 16th July. I very much hope the Government will reconsider and have it April to April,
I fully support this amendment and hope, as my noble friend Lord Dixon-Smith said, that the Government will think seriously about this.
Lord Greaves: I shall briefly support the noble Lord, Lord Dixon-Smith, in this amendment for all the reasons that he and the noble Lord, Lord Hanningfield, have put forward.
The noble Lord, Lord Dixon-Smith, referred to cubic tomatoes and straight bananas. Since I obviously read the wrong newspapers, I do not know what he is talking about. However, if either of them goes off, they become biodegradable municipal waste, so perhaps they are relevant to this discussion.
Those of us who have been in local government for over half our adult lives have been ruled by the normal annual local government cycle, which runs from April to April. We are probably all agog to hear what the Minister has to tell us about the excitement and significance of 16th July. I shall sit down and wait.
Lord Whitty: I hope the noble Lord is not too agog, because the explanation is fairly straightforward, as the noble Lord, Lord Dixon Smith, implied. There is provision within the timetable which does not relate to what I might call standardised horticultural waste or any other European inflexibility but it does relate to 16th July, which was the date from which the directive applies. Therefore, the target dates throughout the scheme relate to 16th July. This may not be particularly helpful from a UK local government financing point of view and I have some understanding and sympathy with the points made here.
To make the allowance scheme more workable for the waste disposal authorities, it may be necessary to run the trading year for allowances in a way that corresponds more closely to the financial year of local authorities. We need to give further consideration to this. For example, it may be possible to run a trading scheme from July in a given year through to Aprilthe end of the financial year. All the reconciliation could take place so that the final result on the target would be known for July, but all contractual aspects would relate to a year ending in April, as is the case for the rest of local authority activity.
There is therefore some possibility of our reconciling what I understand clearly to be the treadmill of the local authority year with the requirement of the directive. The figure is in there at the moment because of the requirement of the directive. We can probably look at this a little further, either subsequent to the Bill or during its consideration. We clearly need to make it compatible with the way in which the local authorities are doing their planning and making their contractual arrangements. In that spirit, I hope that the noble Lord will not pursue the amendment now, but we will see what we can do on this front.
Lord Glentoran: Perhaps I may make two points while the Minister is contemplating working towards 5th April. One of my criticisms of the Government over this is that they have left themselves no leeway within the directive. This scheme, this strategy and this Bill gear everything up to happening and happening and, crunch, on the day the directive comes into play either we have met it or we have not. There is no leeway as I understand it. Perhaps moving from July to April would at least give them a few months' leeway.
The second point, wearing a commercial hat as opposed to any other, is that in the commercial sector we have contracts for up to 25 years and more already in place or being put in place, with dates written in. Unravelling that and putting it back together would involve quite serious cost.
Lord Stoddart of Swindon: I was encouraged by the Minister's comment that he will consider the problems that have been raised. However, I am worried about how this directive was negotiated. Presumably there were British bureaucrats negotiating together with other bureaucrats. I find it disturbing that they did not pick this problem up. They did not seem to realise that our national and local government financial system runs from April to April. I do not know why they did not pick that up and at least ask for a derogation.
I return to the fact that it is fortunate that we are dealing with the Bill as primary legislation. Members of the Committee who are experienced, particularly in local government and in business, have seen straight away how difficult this 16th July date will be. We should all be grateful to the Minister that he at least is listening.
Lord Jenkin of Roding: I share the general welcome that the Committee has given to the Minister's readiness to look at this again. When I went to the Treasury as Financial Secretary 32 years ago, I remember asking my officials why the tax year ran from 6th April to 5th April, but the answer was that the reason was lost in the mists of history. It may have had something to do with quarter days for the payment of agricultural rent and so on.
However, company accounts follow the company's accounting year and do not run necessarily from 6th April to 5th April. The Act then deems that that is to be the year on which the profits will be assessed for the tax year, the following 6th April to 5th April. If that were announced, so that in fact you did not have a single broken year, but you actually went on with years to 5th April and it was then always deemed to run from 16th July, would that amount to a breach of the directive? Are we once again guilty of gold plating a directive?
If we chose to interpret the directive so that one could have 12-month periods ending on 5th April and simply say that they will be regarded as the basis year for the subsequent 12 months beginning on 16th July, I cannot believe that anyone would regard that as in any way sufficient to warrant an intervention on the part of the Commission. This is another example of the
Lord Whitty: This requires further consideration. In regard to England, the Government will be setting the allowances throughout the whole scheme. There will be plenty of notice for one to see the point that one is supposed to reach by the designated year, even if part of the matter is determined separately from what is in the directive. That means that by that year one will have had to reach a certain level.
The date at which the Commission will judge ourselves and other European countries to have met or otherwise those targets will be 16th July. As the noble Lord will know, different EU countries have different financial years. Most operate on the calendar year, but not all. Therefore, in European legislation we need a specific date against which we are all judged. The way in which we attain that may well be compatible with the accounting year for the local authorities. In other words, by April there will need to be in place sufficient reductions of trading or whatever to meet the target when it is measured in July. That is why I said that the year could run from July through to April.
Then the reconciliation took place so we made the figures ready for the Commission in July. That did not cut across contractual arrangements and annual accounting for the local authorities. However, there will be time to plan that because the allowances will be made in advance. It is not as crucial a problem as perhaps the Committee suggests but, nevertheless, it is one that needs some thought and clarification. We cannot remove 16th July as it is a legal requirement under European legislation, but in relation to how we arrive at that, we must be practical about the way in which local authorities carry out their business.

Excessive fan noise after hard drive replacement
I just replaced the hard drive in my Mac (Late 2006 2.13 GHz). It has been years since I've had it up and running, but the fan seems like it's unusually loud. I've reset the SMC and PRAM and this hasn't resolved the issue.
The fan is running at about 60-65 decibels according to an app I have.
I figure my next step is to open things back up and take a look inside.
What things should I look in to while I'm inside? I plan to check the positioning of the hard drive and the state of the fan. I'm likely going to replace the PRAM battery as well. Is there anything else that I should look out for?
Also, could it be related to the fact that I used a 3TB hard drive when the default was 250GB?
Questa è una buona domanda?

By Shauna Second Coming "Scattergories" (see end of post for other adaptations)We are studying the signs and events, listed in Doctrine and Covenants 43 and 45, that will take place before Jesus Christ's Second Coming. Preparation in advance (not necessary-but helpful) the day before, I assigned the students to read D&C Sections 43 and 45 and note the signs of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ for the next class. (About half of my students did this and they are the ones who got the most out of this activity, but everyone participated and learned more than they would through just reading in class and making lists in their journals, etc)I divided my class in to teams. ( I suggest teams of no more than 3-4)Each team had a rolling chalk board that was out of the other teams' view. (you can give each team a large piece of poster board and that would be easy to place them side by side at the end)Based on D&C Sections 43 and 45 (where our lesson was from) they were to list as many signs of Christ's Second Coming as possible in 15 minutes (this gave time for reading and discussion amongst team members)Instruct them to write neatly and make lists in neat lines/rows I told them that once they listed the signs from those sections, they were also allowed to list any other signs from any other scriptures, just be prepared to name the source.When the time was up, they rolled their boards side by side.We started with one board, reading their list and comparing the other lists.

The Tune-Up: Stand and Deliver
Andy Potts' key to a fast run? Stay tall. Greg McMillan, of McMillan Running in Flagstaff, Arizona, explains how to avoid hunching over, for a more efficient stride.
Photo: Chris Philpot
Stand against a doorframe and bend at your ankles four to six degrees. This is the position you should maintain as you run.
Overstriding can cause heel strikes and waste energy. Your feet should fall beneath you, with your head, shoulders, and hips aligned.
To avoid a hunched position, keep your elbows tucked at your side and swing your arms in a straight line, thumbs pointed slightly outward.

Department of Education Looks to Remedy Special Ed Overrepresentation
Earlier this week the US Department of Education said that there are a number of differences exist in public schools across the country where minority students are typically considered to be more likely to have a disability, and also face harsher discipline than white students.
"When we see students in any racial or ethnic group identified with disabilities at vastly higher rates than their peers, we owe it to these students to pause, step back and rethink," Acting Education Secretary John B. King Jr. said in a phone call with reporters.
In an effort to fix this, the department is considering a new rule that would require states to adopt a different, more uniform approach to measure whether there is an overrepresentation of minority students in special education.
Once a district determines that an overrepresentation is present, school officials would be afforded the flexibility to determine how best to spend their federal dollars given to them under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, or IDEA.
Under the current system, districts with a high number of disparities must put 15% of its IDEA money toward offering early intervention services starting in kindergarten. The new rule would increase that to also offer services to students with or without disabilities beginning in preschool.
According to an analysis performed of data recently submitted by states, hundreds of districts around the country have large racial or ethnic disparities that are going unnoticed, writes Jennifer Kerr for ABC News.
One example offered by the DOE showed 876 school districts suspending African-American students with disabilities almost twice as much as other students without disabilities for three years in a row. However, the department said that as of 2013, less than 500 districts in total had "significant disproportionality" or overrepresentation.
According to studies, only between two and three percent of all school districts across the country have been identified in this way.
"We have a moral and a civil rights obligation to ensure that all students, with and without disabilities, are provided the tools they need to succeed, regardless of background," said King. "IDEA exists for the purpose of ensuring that students get the unique services they need, and we owe it to them and to ourselves to uphold all of the law's provisions."
The department analysis also showed Pennsylvania to have 13 districts with twice as many Hispanic students with speech or language impairments as other students for three years in a row beginning in 2012. However, no districts in the state were found to have a wide disparity in the identification of other specific disabilities for the 2012-13 school year.
The recent proposal comes as a result of a 2013 report from the Government Accountability Office that found a number of states had defined overrepresentation in such a way that it became unlikely that a school district would be found to have significant disparities, which would have caused them to be required to spend money on intervention and support services for students.
The proposal is currently open for public comment. It could be months before a final rule is in place.

Alisa Fleming – You may not believe this one, I almost didn't, but there is a new "cream" brand on the market for dairy-free consumers. This magical product is all-natural, vegan, gluten-free, egg-free, soy-free, and as mentioned, dairy-free. Seriously, I kid you not. In fact, it gets better…there is not one, but four new products: MimicCreme Unsweetened Cream Substitute, MimicCreme Sweetened Cream Substitute, MimicCreme Sugar Free Sweetened Cream Substitute, and MimicCreme Coffee Cream Substitute. Read on for the juicy (or should I say creamy?) details…
The company's founder, Rose Anne Jarrett, created the cream out of desperation to find an authentic cream substitute for her dairy-free husband. Tested by Rose Anne herself (a caterer) and numerous chefs, the company states that "MimicCreme really does mimic the taste of real cream"
So where can you find this stuff? I am guessing that they are working hard to get MimicCreme in stores, but right now, you can easily purchase it direct from the MimicCreme Store on their website.
I can only imagine the warm reception this wonderful woman is receiving for her new products! There is only one bout of bad news for a select group… for those food allergy moms dealing with the dreaded three (dairy, eggs, nuts)… nuts are the secret "creamy" ingredients in these new products:
- MimicCreme Unsweetened—Purified Water, Almonds, Cashews, Bicarbonate Soda, Rice Starch, Salt
- MimicCreme Sweetened—Purified Water, Sugar, Almonds, Cashews, Maltodextrin, Tapioca Starch, Guar Gum, Salt, Bicarbonate Soda
- MimicCreme Sweetened Sugar Free—Purified Water, Erythritol, Almonds, Cashews, Maltodextrin, Tapioca Starch, Bicarbonate Soda, Salt, Guar Gum
Below is a press release on their recent big win for "Best New Product" at a major food show:
ALBANY, NY.—Green Rabbit LLC's MimicCreme was the winner in the consumables category for "Best New Product" at the NACDS Marketplace show in Boston where over 130,000 retail chain drug, club and value retailers throughout the U.S. look for the hottest new products. The win sets a tone for the market as health and wellness products are making a mark in a snack orientated retail channel.
MimicCreme introduced four new products at the marketplace show that include MimicCreme Cream Substitute, MimicCreme Sweetened, MimicCreme Sugar Free and MimicCreme Coffee Cream Substitute.
MimicCreme is unique as it the first 100% all natural, 100% Kosher, 100% Vegan, 100% lactose free, 100% gluten free non-dairy and non-soy cream substitute in the market that is made primarily from a wholesome blend of cashews and almonds. MimicCreme's cream substitute products are a very delicious alternative to dairy cream to satisfy people who don't eat dairy foods for health or ethical reasons.

It's been a long time since audiences had their first opportunity to see Los Angeles Opera's captivating production of Puccini's "La Boheme," originally directed by filmmaker Herbert Ross.
How long?
Well, it was the year Bill Clinton first became president; the Brinks armored car heist took place; the World Trade Center towers were bombed (for the first time) and Microsoft introduced Windows 3.1. It was 1993.
It also was the first time LA Opera reached out to a member of the Hollywood film community. And Ross, who had never focused his talent on staging an opera before, seized the opportunity.
The result was a production that brimmed with life and vitality accentuated by the atmospheric sets and costumes of 1880s Paris by Gerard Howland and Peter J. Hall. It marked the beginning of a tradition that would lead to fruitful collaborations with other film directors including John Schlesinger, Maximilian Schell and, most recently, Woody Allen.
Clearly guided by the principal that "if it ain't broke, don't fix (or replace) it," LA Opera brought Herbert Ross' production back for an unprecedented seventh revival Saturday at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion.
It features an able cast led by amber-hued soprano, Nino Machaidze. Re-directed by Peter Kazaras (director of opera at UCLA), it maintains all the Parisian zest of Ross' original staging, particularly during the festive pull-out-all-the-stops flag-waving Christmas Eve party at the Café Momus.
LA Opera has clearly embraced Machaidze. Since her debut with the company as Adina in "The Elixir of Love" in 2009, the Georgian soprano has starred as Fiorilla in "The Turk in Italy (2011); Juliette in "Roméo and Juliette" (2011); sung the title role in "Thais" (2014), and Violetta in "La Traviata" (2014).
Her performance as the consumptive girl in the garret, Mimi, was emotionally and vocally resonant. Her Mimi was convincing, but in a one-dimensional manner. That's because Kazaras' direction avoids the tricky balancing act of portraying Mimi as both the sweet girl from upstairs and the poverty-stricken young woman who has become a flirtatious manipulator of men in order to survive. Hard realities are not this production's strength.
Mimi's significant other, Rodolfo, is sung by Guatemalan tenor Mario Chang, who was a triple award winner at the 2014 Operalia competition in Los Angeles. Whether Chang had undisclosed vocal issues Saturday is unclear, but he did not manifest the same degree of vocal luster he demonstrated during the competition.
Throughout the performance his voice tended to thin rather than gain intensity as it rose into the upper register. Ultimately, he and Machaidze didn't generate the type of chemistry their big love requires.
Giorgio Caoduro displayed a fine voice as the jealous lover/painter, Marcello. But during the Christmas Eve festivities his jealousy took on cartoonish proportion. The tempestuous object of his affection, Musetta, was sung by soprano Janai Brugger. Brugger has a good deal of fun being the belle of bohemian Paris as she warbles "Musetta's Waltz."
Then, as the story deepens and her love affair with Marcello frays, Brugger captured the more mature side of her character.
The madcap crew of starving artists is rounded out by Nicholas Brownlee as the good-natured Coline and the robust singing of Kihun Yoon as Schaunard.
The real star of this production, however, is not onstage. She's on the podium and her name is Speranza Scappuci.
And while the company is heavily promoting the last two performances of "Boheme" (June 10 and 12) because they will mark the LA Opera debut for conductor Gustavo Dudamel, it is unlikely Dudamel will bring any more vitality, finesse and emotional connection to the opera than Scappuci did Saturday.
Italian by birth, with flowing red hair and dual degrees from Juilliard and Conservatorio di Musica Santa Cecilia, her conducing combined pinpoint accuracy with a finely nuanced sense of dramatic sweep.
Scappuci made Puccini's all-too-familiar music sound as fresh as it was the day the opera had its American premiere — Oct. 14, 1897, in of all places, Los Angeles, less than a mile from where it was performed Saturday.
Jim Farber is a Los Angeles-based freelance writer.

Calling all Iowa Fun-atics!!
Hey, all you Fun-atics! If any of you fine folks who've cruised with me in the past just so happen to live in "The IA," I'll be performing in Dubuque and Cedar Rapids July 26-28 with my fellow Carnival Punchliner comedian and body double, Brad Tassel.
For show info for both Dubuque on 25th and Cedar Rapids on 27th-28th, please go to my "Tour" page.
Hope to see you there. It'll be fun, dudes!
When Fun and Canada Collide
Hey, all you fun-atics! Check out this interview I did on a Carnival ship last year with a very talented singer/songwriter from the Great White North named Tim Lucas.
Then enjoy the music video for the first single from Tim's new album Born in Canada.
Comedy for Sail!
Hey, all you Fun-atics! Here are JTFD's upcoming maritime misadventures so far. See you at boat drill....
FEB. 8 HILARITIES, CLEVELAND, OH (With Carmen Lynch)
FEB. 10-24 CARNIVAL FREEDOM (Cruising with "the Fun Chick")
APR. 14 -23 CARNIVAL LEGEND (Bora Bora / Honolulu)
JUNE 8-9 THE KENOSHA COMEDY CLUB, KENOSHA, WI (Only my "cheesiest" jokes)
The Holidays Are Over--Back to Sea!
Hey, all you Fun-atics! I spent the holidays at home for only the second time in 10 years. So I was able to yet again trade a maritime Christmas for a merry one, and still a "maritime" was had by all.
Here's where the Coast Guard can find me in January:
More dates to come. (Which is more than I can say about my love life....)
Happy New Year and have fun, dudes!
Look out, Miami--here comes the Fun Dude!
Greetings, Fun-atics! Your Friendly Neighborhood Fun Dude is headed to the Carnival Splendor January 29th for six weeks as comedy club host in the Punchliner. Then I transfer to the Dream March 12th and until around August. This will be a tough contract because I'll be without the Fun Chick (she's living it up Down Under on the Legend!) and I'll be hosting activities around the ship during the day (gotta love them budget cuts!). But I've also gotten some good news I'll reveal at a later date, so I can definitely see the light at the end of the...ahem...funnel!
Have fun, dudes!
25th Anniversary of My "Comedy on the Road" Appearance
Hey there, all you FUN-atics! I'm excited to say that my cousin Sandy was recently digitizing some of her treasured VHS tapes when she stumbled across the last remaining copy of my second and last (and only actually aired) national TV show appearance from 1991. "Comedy on the Road" was an A & E comedy show hosted by John Binder and the booker was the manager of Drew Carey and Tim Allen, and both of them asked him to put me on the show.
Although it's embarrassing to see how incredibly bad I was back then, it makes me feel good to see how far I've come as a writer and performer in the past 25 years. What's wrong with this set? Well, for one every joke is a hack, made-up joke that had no basis in reality. Although the majority of the jokes are well written and performed, I had no point of view back then and absolutely no sense of who I was or where I was going. Great comedians possess and express themselves though a unique comedic voice. But back then I was doing jokes about "my brother Silas" who didn't exist.
But regardless, I remember Drew Carey driving me to the Dallas airport (we were working the Funny Bone in Arlington that week and that was the comedy condo where I fielded the phone call from NBC that landed him his first "Tonight Show"spot with Johnny Carson") to catch my flight to Detroit. I taped the show at Mark Ridley's Comedy Castle in Royal Oak, MI, in November of 1991, and it aired on A & E in September of 1992.
Anyway, here you go: https://youtu.be/0jgvKKsF64U
The Fun Dude's Guide to Cruising is now an actual book you can spill coffee on or forget on a plane!

Move Over, Dave Barry--Here Comes the Fun Dude!
Hi, there, Fun-atics! After one year and sixteen drafts, my first Kindle book is now available for purchase on Amazon.com for $3.99. (Cheaper than an issue of Mad Magazine!) Here's the link:
The Fun Dude's Guide to Cruising: A Humorous Handbook for Taking Your First Cruise and Living to Complain about It
If you're not sure if cruising is for you, then this funny and irreverent romp through the cruise industry surely is. Written by a stand-up comedian and shipboard comedy club manager who has spent the past decade yucking it up on the high seas, The Fun Dude's Guide to Cruising is the ultimate primer for taking your first cruise. You'll learn how to book your cruise without the help of a reefer-toking travel agent; how to get stranded in Mexico with no passport and no Pepto-Bismol; how to overpack your suitcase with clothes you'll be too drunk to iron; how to eat so much free ice cream you'll slip into a sugar coma; how to imbibe so much alcohol you'll become a CNN headline; how to get free cabin upgrades by behaving like a spoiled child even "Honey Boo-Boo" would scorn; how to ignore important safety information that could save your life while making your entire country look bad in the process; how to get free stuff by complaining about stupid stuff; how to become a karaoke superstar without hitting a single correct note; and, most important, how to annoy everyone else around you without getting pushed overboard.
Even if you're a veteran cruiser or, better yet, a cruise line employee, The Fun Dude's Guide to Cruising contains enough acerbic fun—and funny—for the misanthropic landlubber in everyone. And for less than half the price of a fruity umbrella drink on Lido Deck.
New for 2016: One rockin' JTFD music video and two adult-comedy CDs!
Happy 2016, all you Fun-atics!
January has been a good month for the Fun Dude. I finally found time to edit footage of my performance in December's crew talent show and the video, "18 & Life" (By Skid Row) is up on this site now. After I finished singing that night, my fiancee Zeljka said to me, "Wow--you're in the wrong profession." I said, "You mean I'm that good of a singer?" "No," she said, "You're that bad of a comedian."
What else? Oh, during the Dream's recent 10-day "Journeys" cruise out of Puerto Rico I had an opportunity to fill fill in for a comic who missed the ship. (I guess that $10 voodoo doll I bought in Old San Juan wasn't a waste of money after all.) So I charged up my Zoom audio recorder and whipped up two new albums worth of 18+ comedy. Both "CDs" contain adult language and strong opinions on social issues, so, if you're easily offended, listen to them twice to make it easier. And because both Louis CK and Jim Gaffigan sell their CDs and videos on their websites for only $5, I figure the only fare price for my crap is free. So if you have some time and cellular data to waste, you can download them here:"Ships & Giggles" / "Walk the Plank!"
That's enough blabbering for now, so enjoy the new content and have a fun February, dudes!
Back for More Fun, Dude!
Hey there, all you fun-atics, after an almost four-month vacation/medical sign-off for chronic Acid Reflux (hurray for ship food!), it's time to get back to work.
I sign back onto the Carnival Dream today in New Orleans for another long, long contract in my favorite comedy club, the Punchliner Presented by George Lopez.
Come hang out. We'll have some fun, dudes.

Why Invest in the Annual Campaign?
The Kettle Moraine YMCA is committed to providing quality programs and facilities to everyone, regardless of their ability to pay. While we strive to keep values-based programs and fees affordable by subsidizing some of the real costs, we know that during difficult times some individuals and families will need financial assistance.
Through the Annual Campaign, we are able to ensure that no one is turned away based on their ability to pay. Your volunteer and financial commitment will help thousands of youth and families share their Y experience!
The members of the YMCA Heritage Club are men and women who believe in the mission of the Y, share its ideals and traditions and have made a commitment to ensure that this heritage is continued for future generations. They have made specific gifts to the Kettle Moraine YMCA Endowment Fund, ensuring the Y's ability to be a positive force in this community for years to come.
The purpose of this club is to encourage thoughtful gifts as a primary means of building a strong endowment capable of providing lasting support for the Y's mission and to recognize the members whose leadership, service and devotion to the Y has created this heritage.
Heritage Club members meet annually to enjoy fellowship, find inspiration in the Y's work and learn how their contribution is making their community a better place to live, work and play.
Planned gifts can offer significant tax advantages and, in some cases, generate lifetime income for your chosen beneficiary. Talk to your lawyer or financial planner about your options, or give us a call—we'd love to help you find the best way to extend your legacy.
How you can become a Heritage Club member:
Membership in the Heritage Club requires a commitment which now, or in the future, will contribute to the YMCA's Endowment Fund. An outright minimum gift of $2,500 or naming the YMCA Endowment Fund as a beneficiary for $10,000 or more qualifies you for membership.
There are a variety of gift options available:
In the case of a will or other deferred gift, the amount need not be revealed, but if one chooses to do so, it will aid in our long range planning.

About Mount Albert
Mount Albert is a friendly village with a population of about thirty five hundred people. A diverse rural district that includes farms, regional forests and conservation areas surround it. Located on the eastern border of East Gwillimbury, it has many wonderful things to offer. A strong community spirit is one of its many positive attributes.
Mount Albert was originally settled as a farming community. As the population in the village increased more homes were needed. Over time, subdivisions were built. Many of the original buildings are still in use today. The first store in Mount Albert was built in 1850 to sell dry goods to the families in the area. As the number of families increased, other businesses opened and the business community flourished. Today there are many businesses and services available in the heart of the village that provide just about anything one could want.
There is a strong volunteer community within Mount Albert. In the village there are a number of clubs and organizations that are active – providing something for all ages. Several of these clubs have been active since the early 1900's. In particular, our Lions Club hosts the annual Mount Albert Santa Claus Parade, held the first Saturday in December. Along with the Town of East Gwillimbury, the Lions Club Park is home of the Canada Day Fireworks display each year. Families from all over come to see the spectacular show!

With a little more than one month remaining in the legislative session, time is running out for a bill in the New Jersey statehouse that would have the state get tough with drivers who fail to clear snow and ice off their vehicles. The rule would apply to commercial and non-commercial vehicles.
A similar effort is being pursued in Pennsylvania.
Sponsored by Assemblyman Eric Munoz, R-Westfield, the New Jersey bill would permit police to pull over drivers whose vehicles are not cleared of snow and ice.
State law now prohibits any driver from being fined for driving a snow-capped vehicle. However, if a piece of ice falls from a vehicle and causes injury or property damage, car drivers face fines between $200 and $1,000, while truck drivers can be fined $500 to $1,000.
There were nearly 180 violations of that law during the past year, the Courier-Post newspaper reported.
Munoz said the bill would make drivers responsible for making "all reasonable efforts to remove accumulated ice or snow from the motor vehicle, including the hood, trunk and roof prior to operation."
Violators would face a fine between $25 and $75. No points would be assessed against their driver's licenses.
Trucking industry officials in the state say the rule would be nearly impossible to comply with. They also cite concerns about requiring people to climb atop large vehicles to remove snow or ice.
Drivers would not be liable for snow or ice that accumulates on a vehicle while it is on the road. Munoz said he doesn't want to substitute one dangerous practice for another by requiring drivers to pull to the side of the road during a storm solely to clean their vehicles.
He said his intent is "to target drivers who fail to clean their cars, vans or trucks before heading out following a storm."
"Road conditions may be improved, and the weather may be clear, but some drivers neglect to clean their vehicles and continue to create a hazard on the roads," he said. "At the least, snow or ice falling from a vehicle may impair visibility for other drivers or result in a shattered windshield; at the worst, these avoidable conditions may take a life."
The bill – S2640 – is awaiting initial consideration on the Senate floor. If approved there, it would move to the Assembly. All legislation must be approved by both chambers prior to the end of the regular session, which is scheduled for Jan. 8, 2008.

Belgium's Thiam wins heptathlon at European Championship
11 Aug 2018, 00:19 ( 9 Months ago)
Belgium's Nafissatou Thiam clinched the heptathlon gold with 6,816 points at the inaugural multi-sport European Championships in Berlin's Olympic Stadium on Friday.
Reigning Olympic and world champion Thiam added another medal to her title collection after outperforming the competition.
Britain's Katarina Johnson-Thompson secured the silver medal with 6,759 points followed by Germany's bronze winner Carolin Schafer, who eked out 6602 points.
"It was breathtaking. I will not forget this my whole life," Schafer said.
The European Championships is a new multi-sport event, bringing together the existing European Championships of seven different federations every four years. The on-going event is jointly hosted by Berlin and Glasgow.
