Rabadan-Diehl, C., Martínez, A., Volpi, S., Subburaju, S. and Aguilera, G.
Notes: The authors studied the rat VP V1b receptor (V1bR) gene including the 826 base 5´ UTR, which has five ORFs upstream (uORF) of the V1bR protein start codon, to examine the effect of the upstream peptides on V1bR translation. The V1bR gene was cloned into the pALTER®-MAX Vector, and substitution mutations were created in the uORF translation initiation codons with the Altered Sites® II in vitro Mutagenesis System. One microgram of the linearized pALTER®- V1bR construct was transcribed using the Riboprobe® System and translated using Wheat Germ Extract with or without 35S-methionine. The unlabeled protein was analyzed by Western blot. The radiolabeled protein was spun through a 3% sucrose cushion, precipitated and separated by SDS-PAGE. For a possible membrane-targeted protein, the uORF1 was transcribed in vitro and then translated using Rabbit Reticulocyte Lysate, Canine Pancreatic Microsomal Membanes and 35S-methionine. The proteins were spun through a 3% sucrose cushion and then run on a 15% SDS-PAGE gel to determine membrane presence. (3749)

Notes: Vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM1) is associated with several chronic inflammatory conditions. CAM741 is a fungus-derived cyclopeptide that inhibits VCAM1 expression in endothelial cells. This study investigated the mechanism by which this inhibition occurs. HEK293 cells transfected with a VCAM1 expression vector and exposed to CAM741 expressed fully glycosylated VCAM1, indicating that the inhibitor compound did not affect protein production. Production of VCAM1 in the TNT® Coupled Rabbit Reticulocyte Lysate System with and without Canine Microsomal Membranes, and in the presence and absence of CAM741 showed that the appearance of the glycosylated form of the protein was dose-dependently inhibited in the presence of CAM741. This indicated that CAM741 inhibited translocation of VCAM1 across the membranes. The authors further localized the target to the signal peptide region of the VCAM1 protein by examining the effect of various mutations in the signal peptide and other regions of the VCAM1 protein on susceptibility to the inhibitor compound and on translocation.

Braves lose game to White Sox, Maholm to injury
Given early lead, lefty allows seven runs, suffers sprained left wrist
CHICAGO -- Things looked great and then they didn't.
It happened in a blur, but the Braves relinquished a four-run lead they'd built after just three innings on Saturday afternoon in a 10-6 loss to the White Sox in front of 27,294 at U.S. Cellular Field.
Keyed by the third grand slam of Alex Rios' career -- a day after he got pulled for not hustling down the line -- the White Sox plated five runs in their half of the third off Braves starter Paul Maholm and tacked on four more in the fourth to give Jake Peavy plenty of support.
Maholm left in the fourth inning with a sprained left wrist, but said the injury wasn't at fault for Chicago's big third.
"There's nothing to [pin that on] besides making some bad pitches, walking a guy and leaving balls over the middle," Maholm said. "It was completely on me, and … it [stinks] to do that when your team gives you a 4-0 lead and you hand it right back and we end up losing the game."
Asked if the first pitch to Rios in the third was one of those he left over the middle, Maholm pulled out some gallow's humor.
"That would be placed on a tee for him," he said. "I was thinking he was going to swing [on] the first pitch and I wanted to throw a sinker. It just seemed like the whole inning, whether it was sinker [or] changeup, it was kind of pulled and kind of cut back towards the middle, and for me the bread and butter is sinker-changeup down and away and I made some bad pitches. That was probably about the worse one I could've made and he did what he was supposed to do with it."
Dan Uggla hit a two-run homer in the second for the Braves (55-42), who added two more in the third for a quick 4-0 lead against Peavy -- who made his first start since heading to the disabled list in early June with a fractured rib and pitched six innings.
In this game, Peavy was fine. Maholm was not.
Maholm not gave up seven runs (all earned), but left the game with the wrist injury in the fourth -- after allowing a leadoff double to Josh Phegley and a run-scoring single by Brent Morel that made it 6-4 Chicago. After getting checked by head athletic trainer Jeff Porter, Maholm left the mound and pointed to his left wrist while heading off the field.
The Braves, however, are hopeful the injury won't land the left-hander on the disabled list. In fact, manager Fredi Gonzalez said there might be a chance he could take his next turn in the rotation against the Mets on Thursday at Citi Field.
"It flared up on him in the fourth inning, the top of the fourth," Gonzalez said. "He did it [initially] in Miami in his last start when he was hitting. He kind of [had a] check swing or a swing, and in the top of the fourth, it flared up. We didn't want to take any more chances and we got him out there as soon as we saw there was something."
Uggla finished 1-for-4, Freddie Freeman clubbed a two-run homer and Justin Upton went 2-for-4 with an RBI single to lead the offensive attack.
The Braves took the 4-0 lead thanks to Uggla's homer, his team-leading 19th, and a pair of manufactured runs in the third, when Upton's single drove in Joey Terdoslavich and advanced Jose Costanza to third with one out. Freeman's sacrifice fly scored Costanza and it looked like the Braves might be in for a relatively easy day.
The White Sox had other ideas and it didn't take them long to start roughing up Maholm. After Maholm had already allowed a run on three hits and a walk in the third, he watched his first pitch to Rios travel an estimated 405 feet into the stands in center to clear the bases.
It looked like the result of motivation provided by White Sox manager Robin Ventura's in-game benching the night before, but the Sox skipper disagreed.
"I don't think that was it," Ventura said. "The other day [in Detroit] he was 6-for-6, so there's nothing going on there. He's just a good player and he had a good day. He came up at the right times and hits a grand slam and gets some big hits to help us win. I don't think it had anything to do with last night because he's a good player and it's been proven before."

Ive been practicing!
I face a beautiful women
Takers are vampireing me
Bank Teller;
Watch those eyes, they wonder. Im bringing on my own problems.
12 step group:
First encounter,
A women,. say hello. ( 3 second rule).. Don't think!
Into the meeting:
brought scripts with me.
CPTSD and Alters causing great anxiety. I survive and learn
Stop looking at people thinking I know what they are thinking. If I want a relationship, I will go up to them and talk to them.
Im noticing that Ive lost control of my eyes. They wonder. Getting that control back is important.
I share at the meeting. Im not sure if what Im saying is for attention and popularity.
Neediness and victimhood. Im learning to stay away from this.
A gentleman has spoken. I decided to walk up to him and talk to him. I survived.
I need to stop and think about how I will approach a person before I approach them. Dialectic behavior of awareness comes to mind.
1 year ago I could not let anyone near me at this level of personal awkwardness ..
The key is to keep working at it. Even if the locals have no idea Im working at or working through them.
Practice is the key. The goal of a war is to win. Everyone knows war causes casualties. I just have to tuff through it if Im going to learn anything...

Tonga, unique among Pacific nations, never completely lost its indigenous governance. The archipelagos of "The Friendly Islands" were united into a Polynesian kingdom in 1845. Tonga became a constitutional monarchy in 1875 and a British protectorate in 1900; it withdrew from the protectorate and joined the Commonwealth of Nations in 1970. Tonga remains the only monarchy in the Pacific.

Marriage Matters[edit | edit source]
That the marriage of Sinaitakala Ilangi Leka, Tu'i Tonga Fefine of Tongatapu, to the Fijian chief, Tapu'osi from the village of Vasivasi, Fiji shifted the political alliance from Samoa to Fiji. Sinaitakala Illangi Leka was the daughter of Uluakimata the 1st, also known as Tele'a, and his Ma'itaki wife [premier wife], Mataukipa, daughter of Kau'ulufonua Hua, Chief of Mataliku. Uluakimata the 1st was the 29th Tui Tonga [King] reigned in Tonga as King and is calculated to have started his reign about 1561.[1]
Taxation Tongan Style. Taxation took three basic forms.[edit | edit source]
1. Taxation by tribute was given twice a year. The first was the first fruit 'inasi ceremony that was a form of prayer to the gods for ample crops in the forthcoming season. The second 'inasi ceremony was a tribute where district chiefs occasionally determined the amount and kind of items demanded from their district landowners. At this second tribute offering, the choice of tribute was often left up to the individual. However, if the tribute was deemed lacking, that individual could find his or her property taken away. Therefore, the second 'inasi tribute ceremony was often termed a "gift of respect" and resulted in individual tax payment greater than was expected.
2. Taxation by corvee which means enforced labor. Major efforts were carried out through corvee and were essentially carried out on larger landholdings of important chiefs. At times, two or three times a week, laborers from inferior chief's entourage would work for other chiefs to plant and work the plantations such as for the Tu'i Kanokupolo.
3. Taxation by fono was a public meeting and compulsory. Decrees, advise, and warnings were issued at these meetings. Tribute might be in demanding food for special occassions such as feasts or burial ceremonies. A fono could also be used to organize and appoint work details. Chiefs seldom attended these fono events and sent their matapule advisors. Lesser chiefs would hold smaller fono meetings for their tenants. There was no give and take discussions at fonos. Essentially the work was accomplished by those under the rule of the lesser chiefs.[2]

Kombucha tea is a fermented drink made with tea, sugar, bacteria and yeast. Although it's sometimes referred to as kombucha mushroom tea, kombucha is not a mushroom — it's a colony of bacteria and yeast. Kombucha tea is made by adding the colony to sugar and tea, and allowing the mix to ferment. The resulting liquid contains vinegar, B vitamins and a number of other chemical compounds.
Proponents claim kombucha tea helps prevent and manage serious health conditions, from blood pressure to cancer. These claims are not backed by science. Limited evidence suggests kombucha tea may offer benefits similar to probiotic supplements, including promoting a healthy immune system and preventing constipation. At present, however, valid medical studies of kombucha tea's role in human health are very limited — and there are risks to consider.
There have been reports of adverse effects, such as stomach upset, infections and allergic reactions in kombucha tea drinkers. Kombucha tea is often brewed in homes under nonsterile conditions, making contamination likely. When improperly manufactured ceramic pots have been used for brewing, lead poisoning has occurred — the acids in the tea can leach lead from the ceramic glaze.
In short, there isn't enough evidence that kombucha tea delivers on its health claims. At the same time, several cases of harm have been reported. Therefore, the prudent approach is to avoid kombucha tea until more definitive information is available.

6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
3 tablespoons pareve whipping cream
1 tablespoon margarine
1/8 teaspoon ground ancho chili powder
10 large strawberries
In a heatproof mixing bowl, add the chocolate, pareve cream, and margarine. Place over a smaller pot of simmering water. Be sure the water does not touch the bottom of the bowl. Stir until chocolate is melted, add cream and margarine and stir until smooth. Stir in the chili powder and mix until fully incorporated.
Hold each strawberry by the top or use a toothpick dipped into the top for easier handling and dip into the chocolate allowing excess to drizzle back into the pan. Place chocolate covered strawberries on a parchment or waxed paper lined sheet tray. Once chocolate is cool, chill until fully set, about 30 minutes.

Visitors who want to escape the hustle and bustle of San Juan should head up to the mountains of Aibonito, Puerto Rico, a 45 mi/72 km (one-hour) drive south toward the central region of the island.
Aibonito is known for its flowers and refreshing climate. A flower festival is held annually the last week of June through the first week of July and is a must-see for its wide variety of orchids and tropical flowers in vibrant colors.
Note: Puerto Rico sustained severe damage during Hurricane Maria in September 2017. Aibonito was hit particularly hard, and recovery efforts have been challenging. Still, the flower festival is operational again, and the Mirador Piedra Degetau is worth a stop for its beautiful views.

The dynamic continence challenge - a simple test to predict faecal continence before colostomy closure

BACKGROUND: A common problem in clinical practice is predicting whether a patient will be continent after treatment of a severe perineal injury. Several tests have been described. Anal manometry is unreliable; continence can be normal with low pressures, and poor with high or normal pressures. Endo-anal ultrasound only illustrates anatomical sphincter integrity. The saline continence test involves the quite unphysiological instilling of saline into the rectum, and assessing seepage. What is needed in the prediction of continence is a normal stool simulator.
METHOD: We propose the use of powdered instant mashed potato reconstituted with water to the consistency of faeces. About 100 - 150 ml is introduced into the rectum using a catheter-tipped syringe. The patient is instructed to walk around for half an hour. On return the underwear is examined for any soiling. If there is no leakage the colostomy may be reversed.
RESULTS: Over the past 15 years, 53 patients have undergone this test. In 47 patients there was no leakage, all had their stomas reversed, and none was incontinent during follow-up.
CONCLUSION: The dynamic continence challenge is an accurate physiological test that allows clinicians to simulate the effects of colostomy reversal and assess a patient's continence before actually proceeding to the reversal.

Food & Drink
Fish fry bridges tourist-local gap on Turks and Caicos
By Savita Iyer-Ahrestani, for CNN • Updated 25th March 2013
Some of the best food on the Turks and Caicos island of Providenciales is served up by small, local vendors -- Froggies on Da Beach, Blue Hills Native Cuisine, Uncle Dough's, Hole in the Wall and Middle Caicos Café are popular options.
Visitors to the Caribbean vacation island, however, tend to stay close to resorts, preferring to nurse poolside glasses of rum punch during their stays.
Not that there's anything wrong with that -- resorts around the famed white sands of central Grace Bay are terrific.
It's just that many visitors leave the island having missed out on a gathering of the best local tastes in town, just a short cab ride away.
Local party
Turks and Caicos is just an hour and half from Miami by plane.
Launched in January, the island's Thursday night Fish Fry is a weekly party that aims to get tourists mingling with locals. It takes place in a part of Providenciales (often called "Provo") that most tourists don't readily frequent.
Island specialties such as jerk chicken, conch fritters, just-caught fish and an array of fresh seafood are cooked on the spot by the types of smaller vendors most tourists wouldn't typically come across. The rum punch, too, is mixed in a way locals swear can't be replicated by any hotel bar.
A steel band punctuates the rhythm of a Junkanoo, a Bahamian-style dance and music parade.
World's 50 best beach bars
"Our goal is to get people out of their Grace Bay resorts and get them to experience our local food, culture and music," says local tourist board representative David Fenimore, the brains behind the Fish Fry.
Reaching across th
Nobody ever needs to tell you to "just relax" here.
Turks and Caicos is known for white sand beaches, turquoise waters, spectacular snorkeling and diving, and a heavy tilt toward high-end travelers. There's a distinct separation here between locals and tourists, who tend to stick on or close to their resorts.
So it's important, Fenimore says, to try and tip the scales the other way, "since the trickle down doesn't necessarily happen the way it should."
Longtime Providenciales resident Hazel Greenwood recalls a time when Grace Bay was nothing more than a raw stretch of beach, when expats (many of whom never left the island and became Turks and Caicos residents) and locals all knew each other and would often hang out together.
"Tourists are not really aware of where we have come from to get to where we are, and it has been hard, but I'd say that what's important here is that everyone does things together and we like to keep it that way," says Greenwood, whose engineer husband put in the lights for the runway at Providenciales' airport in 1983 and later wired up Club Med, the first luxury resort on Provo.
Colorful characters
Local vendors, island specialties.
At the Thursday fish fry, visitors can meet Provo personalities such as Melbourne Smith, creator of Henry the Conch, a Turks and Caicos mascot whose goal is to raise awareness of the cultural and ecological importance of conch to island.
Another regular is the charismatic Alicia Wilson, who goes by the nickname "Beautiful" and is the creator of potent cocktails.
Judging by the crowds lining up at stands like Blue Hills Native Cuisine, where owner Bertha Mae Forbes busily fries up vast quantities of fresh snapper, the word may be spreading faster than Fenimore expects.
"We're just using lime, some salt and a little bit of pepper," says Forbes' daughter, Marjorie Dorsett of her mother's fish as it sizzles in hot oil.
"It's plain, way-back kind of seasoning, but I can tell you that you're not going to find the same taste in the big hotels."
Tourists seem to be loving the local taste.
"It's a fantastic party -- a great occasion for locals, expats and tourists to get together, and I'm definitely coming again," says Robyn Matravers, a visitor from Toronto.
The Turks and Caicos Fish Fry takes place every Thursday from 5:30-9:30 p.m
at Bight Park, Lower Bight Road, Providenciales. A US$10-per-person taxi ride from any Grace Bay resort, it's a family friendly event.

Primatial Library of Gran (Esztergom, Komárom-Esztergom, Hungary)
Since 1001 Gran (see Esztergom) has been the seat of an archbishop, who is at the same time a prince and primate of Hungary. When the great Anabaptist persecution set in under Maria Theresa in 1757, which ended in a complete liquidation of Anabaptist groups, all their books of instruction or dogma, as well as their private and public correspondence were confiscated (Beck). On 8 November 1578 an order was issued that all suspicious books were to be taken from the brethren in Sobotište and presented to the authorities for investigation. A similar order was given 14 December 1759 to the Pressburg Komitat: a careful search was to be made among the Anabaptists in Gross-Schützen. The confiscated books were not returned to their owners. On 9 April 1760 the government was informed that the orders had been followed and the books and writings taken from the leaders. In the same year a directive was issued to baptize all infants according to Catholic rites; committees were sent out to convert the Anabaptists. With some they succeeded; most of them accepted the Catholic forms, but remained true to their convictions. These conversions mark the beginning of the end of Anabaptism in Hungary; in contrast to former times, the conversions were now to be accomplished by gentle means. Details are found in the court records, some of which Joseph Beck has published in the appendix to the Geschichts-Bücher. The reports state that many books were successfully hidden by the Hutterites before the coming of the officers. One of these books was, of course, the official Geschicht-Buch.
Most of the confiscated books were put into the Primatial library in Gran, some to the Domkapitel library in Pressburg, some to the Protestant Lyzeal library there, and a relatively large number to the university library in Budapest. The manuscripts in the Primatial library are listed by Beck in his summary of the sources from which he compiled his Geschichts-Bücher. Since his edition is no longer to be found in bookstores, the most important of the manuscripts will be listed here with signatures. The following manuscripts contain exclusively matter in the Geschichts-Bücher.
- Codex G—Graner Chronikel (signature G. J. VI. 27), once the property of Andreas Ehrenpreis, one of the leaders.
- Codex J—Codex Breitmichl (signature G. J. VI. 25), begun in 1591, extends to 5 April 1668.
- Codex L—Schad'sche Chronik (signature G. J. X. 11), once the property of Mathes Helm, who headed the brotherhood in 1701.
- Codex O—Codex Artolf (signature G. J. X. 8), once the property of the weaver, Kaspar Artolf.
- Codex Q (signature G.- J. X. 4) without further designation.
- Codex R—Codex Dreller III (signature G. J. X. 5) was written by the bookbinder Isaak Dreller in 1647 at Sobotište.
- Codex T—Codex Ehrenpreis with Hubmaier's motto, "Die Wahrheit ist untötlich." This codex contains a number of brotherhood regulations. The present signature is G. J. VI. 26.
A further list of manuscripts has a mixed content:
- G. J. X. 9, written in 1574.
- G. J. VI. 31, containing a defense of the Anabaptists against the charge that they despised government and the ownership of property, and the important letter to the lords of Moravia with a vindication of the faith of the Brethren and their institutions.
- G. J. X. 33, containing part of an epistle from the Moravian brotherhood to the Swiss Rausenberger in 1601 and a doctrinal statement of the brotherhood.
- G. J. X. 12 contains an epistle by Andreas Ehrenpreis (also printed in 1652) and the five articles of the great struggle between us and the world: baptism, communion, community of goods, government, and divorce (likewise by Ehrenpreis).
- G. J. X. 28 contains a report by Hans Schmidt about his imprisonment in Württemberg, then 16 questions on baptism, and a letter by Andreas Ehrenpreis to Daniel Zwicker in Danzig.
- G. J. X. 14 contains the epistle of Andreas Ehrenpreis (see No. 4) and his discussion on baptism.
- G. J. X. 27 contains a hymnbook of the brethren in Sobotište.
- G. J. XI. 29 contains Riedemann's Rechenschaft. Beck adds that he took some documents from the archives in Gran.
From the above it is clear that in spite of Beck's meritorious work a new systematic research of the archives and of the bishopric of Gran according to the sources is necessary to the history of the Anabaptists.

: CHARLIE TROTTER'S EPONYMOUS RESTAURANT IN LINCOLN PARK HAS CLOSED It is hard to believe that Charlie Trotter has maintained his perpetual quest to better himself and his staff for more than two decades, but those who've dined here recently know it's true. His obsession with what he calls "excellence" has not ceased --- nor has the quality of what his kitchen turns out. Menus undergo spontaneous metamorphosis and servers constantly challenge their own mettle striving to go the extra mile. There is little question that Trotter seeks out the best products (from more than 90 purveyors, in fact), whether they hail from Michigan farms or the waters of Tasmania. Therefore, there is justification for the "price of admission" (another Trotter phrase). Dinners consist of dégustations of six or more courses, and all change nightly: the grand menu, the vegetable menu and the ultra-extravagant kitchen table menu. The kitchen table seats four to six for a 12 to 14 course up-close experience, and it's advisable to reserve months in advance. Examples of dishes (though the kitchen prides itself on "never serving the same dish twice") include a 72-hour braised short rib with tamarind, pickled kohlrabi and crispy lotus root, and grilled Nantucket Bay scallops with candied kumquats, ankimo and thyme-infused duck consommé. The wine list has few equals in the city: a special section lists many bottles for less than $100, and a good selection of wine is available by the glass and half-bottle.

LOL This was in 1999 or 2000... somewhere around there. So I am only 19/20, my sister is only about 17/18/19 and the kids are only 9/10, 11/12, and 13/14. Since the kids are pretty much grown now (17, 19, and 21) I thought it would be cool to put these pictures together into albums for each of them.

How To Install Integral Power Steering Gear
Borgeson Power Steering Stops The Leaks And Gives You Crisp 16:1 Steering Without Special Modifications
I am so over leaky Bendix power steering for classic Mustangs. So over it, in fact, I ordered a new Borgeson integral power steering system for my high school sweetheart-a '67 Mustang hardtop I've owned since 1974. When my father bought this 289-powered Sport Sprint as a second car for my mother, it was a well-worn $400 beater with 80,000 miles, 19:1 ratio manual steering, drum brakes that didn't work, Sears Dynaglas tires, and a bashed-in quarter-panel.
Thirty-six years later, the car is reaching the conclusion of a long restoration. I've installed four-wheel disc brakes from Stainless Steel Brakes, Flowmaster mufflers, bench seat, a groovy Mini-Tach from Retro-Gauge in Australia, Custom Autosound system with CD and amp, warmed up 289 with a roller cam and Cobra dress-up kit from Tony Branda, and a set of American Racing Torq-Thrust wheels. I've gotten the car just the way I want it except for the power steering fluid all over my garage floor.
When I was just about at my wit's end with the drippy factory Bendix power steering, Borgeson called and asked if I'd like to try its new integral worm-and-sector power steering system for '65-'70 Mustangs. I willingly obliged, glad to remove the old Bendix system and try something refreshing in a classic Mustang.
The Borgeson system bolts right in without major modifications and with simple hand tools. The Borgeson box isn't a new steering gear, but instead it's a proven remanufactured unit available off the shelf with a sporty 16:1 steering ratio. It's an affordable alternative to manual power-assisted worm-and-sector or aftermarket rack-and-pinion steering. Best of all, it maintains that classic Mustang feel.
We have to clarify the unique nature of our '67 Mustang's steering column, which gave us problems unrelated to the Borgeson system. During the restoration, we installed a '68-'69 collapsible steering column to improve safety, adapting it to the '67 collar and turn signal switch, which works fine with a stock steering gear or rack-and-pinion. It will not fit the Borgeson unit without modifications (column tube must be cut 1/2 to 1 inch shorter to clear).
When the Borgeson power steering installation is complete, inspect your work thoroughly. Make sure tie-rod ends are torqued and secured with cotter pins. Service the power steering pump with Borgeson's recommended fluid specification. Start the engine and run the steering wheel from lock to lock to bleed air out of the system. Visit a trusted alignment shop for a precision front-end alignment. While you're at it, have the alignment shop inspect your work.

We are trying again! At the next FLIP meeting, we will discuss the book "Everything is Miscellaneous: The Power of the New Digital Disorder" by David Weinberger (2007). We actually tried this early in the year but the discussion meeting never came to fruition (note: don't plan this type of thing in the weeks approaching the AkLA Conference). But we are determined to follow through because 1) it really is an interesting and relevant read and 2) the author himself actually commented on the post where our discussion of his book was first announced (you can find that here, second comment below the post).
Anyway, our new approach is to break the discussion into smaller and (hopefully easier to keep up with) portions of the book. So when we meet again (on Friday, Dec. 17), we'll talk about the first three chapters of the book which amount to just over 60 pages.
In case you're wondering what "Everything is Miscellaneous" is all about, here is a blurb from the Amazon.com Review: "Human beings are information omnivores: we are constantly collecting, labeling, and organizing data. But today, the shift from the physical to the digital is mixing, burning, and ripping our lives apart. In the past, everything had its one place–the physical world demanded it–but now everything has its places: multiple categories, multiple shelves. Simply put, everything is suddenly miscellaneous."
Want even more information? Weinberger also maintains a blog (of the same title) that discusses the topics covered in the book. The author also has his own website, Evident, which includes his full biography.
So back to the discussion of the next FLIP meeting: the first three chapter titles are listed below to pique your interest and/or get you motivated to start reading. You have 30 days to read about 60 pages, that's not impossible, is it??
Chapter 1: The New Order of Order
Chapter 2: Alphabetization and Its Discontents
Chapter 3: The Geography of Knowledge

Damn. I did say we.Topper wrote:Tough to get them out of the system isn't it Donny. I'm nearly purged.
Yeah, I haven't watched a game this year at all Topper and I really, truly don't care which is stunning even to me, although I was close to this mindset last year as well.
The lockout was kind of the lol, fuk u guys final straw for me as I've stated in the past.
The only way I know even a semblance of what is going on is hearing stories from buds and the odd reading I've done here the last few days (perhaps the occasional snippet on the radio/news that I catch out of the corner of my eye type of thing).
The whole Canuck experience is like one big lifetime cruel joke at this point.
Of course the laughing stock the league and it's leaders have become adds to my disdain.
