Wichita man sentenced for role in death
WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — A Wichita man has been sentenced to 13 years in prison for a fatal beating in a dispute over a dog.
Nelson Glover was sentenced Friday in Sedgwick County District Court, where he pleaded guilty earlier to involuntary manslaughter, robbery and aggravated burglary. Another defendant in the case, Samuel J. Sims, also pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter and was sentenced earlier this year to 14 years in prison.
The Wichita Eagle reports (http://bit.ly/112Uoc4 ) the two men were charged in the July 2011 beating death of 47-year-old John Tolliver.
Police said Glover and Sims got involved in a dispute between Tolliver and his former girlfriend over possession of a dog. Tolliver was found dead in his Wichita home, where burglars had taken the dog.

Jamaica Observer News Story: Bad Boys to reggae's rescue
By Cecelia Campbell-Livingston Observer
WITH over 40 years in the music under their belt, Inner Circle has just about seen and done it all. Recently, the band launched their latest, and arguably, most important, initiative.
Their dissatisfication with contemporary Jamaican music inspired the Saving The Reggae Music campaign.
Bass player and founding member Ian Lewis warns that "unless proper steps are taken, then we are going to lose the best thing that we ever had."
Lewis says current reggae is too influenced by American hip hop. In light of this trend, the group is pushing their latest song, This Is Reggae Music, a cover of the Zap Pow band's hit song from the early 1970s.
According to Lewis, the song is "very appropriate" to get the band's message across.
"We think it is a key song to express to the world our sentiments," he said, adding that an accompanying video will cement the quartet's message.
Lewis believes Jamaican youth have lost touch with their culture, and foregners have noticed this.
"In America alone, there are over 400 white reggae bands, they are the ones enjoying nine months out of the year tours," said Lewis.
Recently, Billboard Magazine did a feature on the rise of American bands like Rebelution and Groundation, who have made a name through constant touring.
Lewis hopes the Inner Circle mission will go viral and influence real change among Jamaican youth to get back to basics as far as reggae is concerned.
Formed in the early 1970s, Inner Circle retains three of its core. Lewis' older brother, guitarist Roger, is another founding member while keyboardist Bernard 'Touter' Harvey has been in the band for over 35 years.
Led by singer Jacob Miller, the band had a string of hit songs such as Tenement Yard and Everything is Great. Miller died in 1980, putting the brakes on Inner Circle's career.
They made a remarkable comeback in 1993 with the big hit songs Sweat (A La La La La Long) and Bad Boys. They won the Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album the next year.

Inner Circle Central Park Performance at SummerStage in Central Park, NYC :: 5,000+ in attendance
FREE SHOW August 19, 2012 :: NY SummerStage: Inner Circle / Israel Vibration / The Mighty Diamonds / DJ Carter Van Pelt
Sunday, August 19, 2012
3:00 p.m.
Celebrate Jamaica's 50th anniversary of independence with this day of Jamaican reggae music.
To anyone who's familiar with Inner Circle, the GRAMMY® winning band's 20-year-plus history in reggae has had a long string of successes. Inner Circle's special brand of pop-oriented Jamaican beats and energy-filled live performances have allowed the band to transcend the traditional reggae niche and enjoy widespread crossover appeal. From the launch of their first album in 1978 entitled, Everything Is Great, to the launch of the album, Bad Boys which became an international hit featuring the title track as well as the dance party favorite "Sweat," Inner Circle's brand of unforgettable hooks and island beats has kept the band a mainstay in the reggae world.
The story of reggae group Israel Vibration's success starts out with their humble beginnings as children battling polio in a Jamaican rehabilitation center. Cecil Spence (Skelly) and Lascelle Bulgin (Wiss) bonded through music while in the clinic and quickly became friends. As the duo got older, they found the faith of Rastafari and created songs which expressed their spiritual beliefs. Since then, the duo's music has been spellbinding audiences for over two decades with their mix of traditional roots reggae and deeply spiritual messages such as the critically acclaimed album, On The Rock and its follow-up Free To Move, which reached number one on the CMJ New World charts.
The Mighty Diamonds are the most consistent and long-running reggae trio in Jamaican musical history. For over forty years the group has been entertaining and educating the world with their conscious lyrics, soulful harmonies and polished performances that led them to become known as the reggae group with the Motown sound. Their debut album Right Time, has become a reggae classic while the single, "Pass the Kutchie" from the album Changes, became an international hit and has since been covered by reggae group, Musical Youth whose version "Pass the Dutchie" also garnered fame globally. With over forty albums released, the group remains a favorite of the dance hall crowd, roots and progressive audiences.
Head DJ of Eastern Standard Time on WKCR 89.9 FM in New York City, DJ Carter Van Pelt is a true student of Jamaican music of every era, from ska to dancehall. He'll celebrate Jamaica's 50th Anniversary with far-ranging selections covering every era. His WKCR program has earned a worldwide reputation for bringing artists to the studio for historic interviews, augmented with deep cuts, all played from vinyl. Van Pelt is the founder/producer of the popular Coney Island Reggae Soundsystem Series, held each summer on the iconic Coney Island Boardwalk. He also hosts a program on the Internet station Radio Lily.

'Hawaii Five-0' likely to start using Hawaii Film Studio at Diamond Head
- Janis L. Magin
- Managing Editor- Pacific Business News
- Email | LinkedIn | Twitter | Google+
One network's loss may be a gain for the CBS crime drama "Hawaii Five-0," which likely will take over the state's Hawaii Film Studio at Diamond Head after the canceled ABC drama "Last Resort" wraps production.
"Hawaii Five-0" has been using the former Honolulu Advertiser building as a soundstage since CBS Productions began filming the show more than two years ago.
But Gannett Co. (NYSE: GCI) recently sold the building to developer Marshall Hung, who plans to build some 1,000 condominium units along the South Street side of the property, and "Hawaii Five-0" producers were told they need to find a new place to work once the third season wraps production next spring.
Hawaii State Film Commissioner Donne Dawson says Sony Pictures Television hasn't given the state a date yet for when "Last Resort" will be finished with the Diamond Head studio. The show is currently filming its last two episodes.
Dawson did say that there's a "high probability" that "Hawaii Five-0" will take over the space, possibly as soon as February or March.
"They're a big production and it's going to require some effort," she said. "I can't say right now what the scenario might be. They may very well end up at Diamond Head and then have to secure ancillary space."
Meanwhile, "Hawaii Five-0" posted its best ratings of its third season with Monday's episode, which featured former "General Hospital" star Vanessa Marcil as a therapist and a scene filmed at Cafe Julia at the YWCA of Oahu's downtown Honolulu headquarters, placing second among adults ages 25-54 with a 3.2 rating and scoring a 2.3 rating for adults ages 18-49, according to a statement from CBS (NYSE: CBS).

Jiro Dreams of Sushi
Saw this at an advanced screening in L.A. back in May - It is an absolutely fantastic documentary from director David Gelb... So much more than just sushi, the film addresses the Japanese views on growing old, family structure, and the their work ethic.
Highly recommended.
re: Uncle Yabai
It appears that the Taiwanese region 3 DVD pressing (legitimate it appears) of the movie is already available online for ordering (ebay, eslite.com.tw, yesasia.com)...supposed release date was 4/3 which is quite unusual since the film is still showing in independent movie theaters in the USA. The title of the movie in Chinese translates to "the god of sushi" (not sure why they reworked the meaning of the title like that).
For those in Melbourne, Australia it's showing as part of the Melbourne film Festival: http://miff.com.au/films/view?film_id...
Youtube used to have a 6 segment Japan TV (NHK?) documentary following Ono Jiro 小野二郎 around. While I don't speak or read Japanese, the focus was more about his life, philosophy, and even followed him to Yachiyo (Tsukiji) to have curry rice for lunch where they are famous for chashu egg rice and ebi furai, and another scene where he's chatting with some fish vendors, and in another segment having a reunion with old friends, colleagues/apprentices (including Mizutani himself) and family, not so much on the sushi making part or preparation. There may have been other Jiro documentaries shot for the Japan market locally.
This film looks really well shot and done (judging from trailer and pics), which is great for those outside of Japan who can't get enough of footage thanks to the likes of Bourdain and English writing bloggers. Guess I'll just wait for the DVD.
re: K K
Here below a You-tube that focus on the 'nigiri' way of Jiro-San
I believe it would be even more interesting if he demonstrated with more varieties of 'nigiri', especially maguro (=tuna).
This magic documentary, in my opinion is like an'abracadabra',
showing the magic, but realising it is another matter. This is truly my favorite sushi and I am curious also about this movie. But, does it show the piece of 'nigiri' made by Jiro-San, put in front of your eyes, and in one breath it sinks in you... Yes!

Thou Shalt Not
Civil Liberties in the Big City Ain?t What They Used to Be
Adam Bonislawski
Stroll Around with 50 of Your Closest Friends
Unsurprisingly, perhaps, ex-mayor and authoritarian nonpareil Rudolph Giuliani wasn't all that big on freedom of assembly. Among other things, Hizzoner worked tirelessly to make City Hall (once host to all manner of demonstrations) a no-protest zone, obstructing even city council members' attempts to hold press conferences on the building's steps.
It's been under Giuliani successor Michael Bloomberg, however, that the city has really tightened the screws on parades and public gatherings. Perhaps the first sign of things to come arrived in early 2003 when demonstrators protesting the impending Iraq War were denied permission to march past the U.N. building and rerouted several blocks north instead. Given that the city was then operating under Homeland Security Threat Level Orange, said rerouting was widely viewed as a reasonable enough precaution and the protesters seen for the dirty, whiny hippies that they were. Five years later, the dirty, whiny hippies were right, Threat Level Orange is a daily joke, and Bill Kristol has a column at the New York Times. So, basically, we all kind of lost.
In the meantime, though, there was also the 2004 Republican Convention's great grass debacle, in which Bloomberg decided that Central Park's sod must not be sacrificed in the name of political protest, and, most recently, the NYPD's 2007 rewriting of the parade rules to require a permit for groups of 50 or more. Now, don't get me wrong, I understand the need for permits every bit as much as the next fellow, but when a local law enforcement agency with no actual legislative power decides to unilaterally determine the parameters within which eight million or so citizens can exercise their First Amendment rights, well, a person doesn't have to be Norm Siegel to cry foul.
Visit Downtown On the Down-Low
If you're camera shy, you might want to wrap up any business you've got downtown in the next year or so. After that it's going to get pretty hard to venture below Canal Street without posing for a portrait.
Meet the Lower Manhattan Security Initiative — Bloomberg's plan to swaddle the southern tip of the island in a security blanket comprising some 3,000 cameras, license plate readers, a command center and movable roadblocks. Modeled after London's "Ring of Steel", the $90 million (according to recent estimates) project aims to achieve total surveillance of the public's comings, goings and doings about the streets of Lower Manhattan. It'll be kind of like having City Hall constantly posting status updates to your Facebook profile. ("Adam Bonislawski is enjoying a Chipotle burrito at the intersection of Broadway and Stone.") Creepy? A little bit. Illegal? Thus far, not so much.
As a matter of fact, even before this latest scheme, New York was swimming with all manner of surveillance cameras both public and private. Three years ago, a study conducted by the NYCLU found some 2,200 surveillance cameras in Greenwich Village and Soho alone. Thousands more operate all across the city. On the street, in the subway, in elevators and office buildings, inside stores, outside apartments — from the moment you head out in the morning until you return at the end of the day, you can pretty much assume you're always being watched by someone. Consider it just a little something to keep in mind the next time you're thinking of running to the bodega in that t-shirt with the pit stains. After all, as a resident of a city under constant surveillance, don't you owe it to yourself to never leave the house looking anything less than your best?
"We can dance if we want to," sang the boys of Men Without Hats. But while that might have flown in Montreal, New York is a different story. In 1926, the city, in an attempt to push back against creeping societal scourges like interracial dancing and the Lindy Hop, passed a package of "cabaret laws" regulating nightlife establishments in the five boroughs. They were enforced over the years with varying degrees of vigilance (ensuring, among other things, that musicians like Billie Holiday and Thelonius Monk were banned for a time from performing on city stages) before falling into well-deserved obsolescence several decades back.
In fact, everyone had more or less forgotten about the things until 1997, when then-mayor Giuliani dusted off an old provision outlawing dancing save for in specially licensed venues and took it up as yet another cudgel in his quality-of-life campaign. The mayor used the law to shut down establishments the city deemed overly rowdy or in some way a nuisance, a practice that has continued (albeit somewhat less enthusiastically) under the Bloomberg administration. And so we're provided such curious delights as "No Dancing" signs taped to the walls of dive bars and occasional confrontations between unaware out-of-towners and the barkeeps forced to scold them for tearing it up a touch too vigorously to 'Little Red Corvette'. Ladies and Gentleman, we give you New York City — the Nightlife Capital of America! Sigh. Where's Kevin Bacon when you need him?
Add To Your Photo Album
Should you ever have cause to snap a picture of West Chelsea's Bayview Correctional Facility, tread carefully. Otherwise, you might end up as I did on a recent winter afternoon, detained by an overzealous prison guard concerned that I was, as he put it, "casing the place for a breakout." I wasn't. I was just rounding up a little art for a story. And, after a few calls to the local precinct, and the intercession of a pair of plainclothes police, I was sent on my way. Still, it was kind of a hassle.
Bloomberg's subway photo restrictions got shouted down a few years back, but street photography seems to have retained its shady reputation among the city's law enforcement crowd. For example, the pair of cops who last December handcuffed and hauled off Columbia grad student Arun Wiita for photographing the entrance to a subway station. Or the MTA security guard who in early February tried to confiscate the video camera of artist Katherin McInnis as she stood on a Brooklyn sidewalk shooting Bruce Ratner's Atlantic Yards development site.
A year after the mayor's photo ban attempt fell through, the MTA (at the behest of the NYCLU) sent out a memo further reminding its staff and city police that there is no prohibition on photographing MTA property. Apparently not everyone got the message. This is the problem with people who don't check their work email.
Keep It Zipped On the Subway
Two weeks after the 2005 London Tube bombings, New York put in place procedures for random bag checks of subway passengers. Two weeks after that, the NYCLU, in a move that surprised approximately no one, filed a lawsuit to stop said bag checks. Also not terribly surprising — they lost.
Since then, subway luggage searches have occurred with roughly the same frequency as Knick playoff appearances, and the citizenry has by and large forgotten about the whole thing. Having grown accustomed over the years to emptying out our bags at airports, museums, baseball stadiums, what-have-you, we were apparently so inured to the inconvenience and injustice of it all that we really couldn't bother caring (a 2005 Quinnipiac University poll put public support for the measures at just over 70%). For some, this reaction suggested a society of feckless automatons slouching towards Oceania. For others it indicated a reasonably well-adjusted populace willing (regardless of what Benjamin Franklin might have advised) to on occasion swap a bit of personal liberty for security. For still others it was simply the tack a person would naturally take toward a half-assed security measure that promised to be neither especially obtrusive nor particularly effective. For your drug delivery guy it meant that it was time to buy a bike.
Own a gun
Wait, what? We know, we know, but one would have to be a rather hearty hypocrite to agitate for civil liberties, yet ignore old numero dos simply because it's the favorite amendment of the tobacco-stained. It's not impossible to get a legal handgun in New York, but it's certainly not easy. Of the city's eight million-plus residents, about 36,000 of them possess handgun licenses. Doing the math, that's some .45% of the population. Your more enthusiastic firearm proponents have long complained that it's because the NYPD's licensing process (an undeniably tedious slog involving a battery of forms and a personal interview) unduly inconveniences law-abiding New Yorkers looking to get their gun on. On the one hand, it probably ought to be something of a hassle to get a handgun permit. On the other hand, the fact that applicants often shell out hundreds of dollars hiring "licensing attorneys" to guide them through the process suggests that this hassle might have gotten a bit out of hand.
Beyond that, there's just the general notion that there's something infantilizing about having to ask permission to defend yourself. Countering that notion, of course, is the fact that so many of us still act like children.
Recite The Bill of Rights At a Group of Cops While Done Up In a Flashy Whitesuit
Last June, the Church of Stop Shopping's white-suited patriarch, the Reverend Billy, gathered in Union Square with a number of his fellow freespeech enthusiasts to shout the First Amendment at a group of police in protest of the NYPD's Critical Mass crackdown and new parade restrictions. (Go to YouTube and enter "Reverend Billy Arrest" for the video.) Several minutes into the demonstration, Billy was cuffed and stuffed into a white police van, the official charge at the time "Harassment of a Public Official." At no time during the arrest did any of the cops/"public officials" utter the word "irony." Any way you try to frame or reframe it (and there are huge packs of D.O.J. lawyers constantly trying to do just that), to arrest a man for reading the Bill of Rights is kind of ridiculous. Even if he's reading it again and again and again and again and refuses to quiet down when you ask him to. Unless, say, he's doing it in your living room. Then pretty much anything goes. •

Los Angeles News
Video shows tow truck crashing into Metro bus in downtown Los Angeles
DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- New surveillance video released Thursday shows the deadly crash involving a Metro bus and a tow truck in downtown Los Angeles.
The video shows the speeding tow truck driver running a red light and slamming into the bus. Long-time Metro driver Olivia Gamboa, 47, never saw it coming. She was killed in the collision early Wednesday morning at 5th Street and Broadway.
"I would always see her on #18 bus doing her job. I remember recalling once that she let me in for free just because I didn't have enough money. It's just really heartbreaking," said bus rider Katherine Ramirez, who visited a growing memorial at the crash site.
The tow truck driver, 43-year-old Yosef Adhami, doesn't have a valid driver's license. Adhami has numerous suspensions from the Department of Motor Vehicles. During his last suspension, he surrendered his license.
Adhami also has a criminal record, including fleeing from police. He was involved in a standoff with police in Lackawannock Township, Pa., in January 2008 after leading officers on a pursuit. Adhami was peppered-sprayed after telling police he had a bomb strapped to his body. No explosives were found. Police had tried to stop him for speeding.
Adhami was listed in grave condition at the hospital Thursday night.

When you say 50% of the clip - what do you mean? - I dont quite follow whats going wrong.
Ok, this is my first post, but bear with me:
Ok, I've just made to brilliant videos. (I'm not bragging, they are excellent) As soon as i get to the task of rendering them, It does render, but you can clearly see in both the preview and the finished product that at least 50% of the clips turn out black, with the music still playing in the backround...
I have heard about problems with interlacing and such, but i was wondering if anyone has or has had this problem, and thus, get a solution. I really need a response!
I would love to show these 2 videos to you guys, you seem to be a sound crowd and I look forward to hanging around here.
Thank you,
When you say 50% of the clip - what do you mean? - I dont quite follow whats going wrong.
Well, around half the clips. Not necessarily 50%, not that exact.
Basically, it's like covering your eyes. Sound, but no sight, the video shows as a black screen with sound and then works fine again, then it goes black etc. So, some of the clips on the timeline, when rendered, turn out black for no obvious reason.
It's very frustrating, and I have looked everywhere for a solution and/or a cause.
I will be getting a new PC soon, with all the features (2GB RAM, 4.80 GHz etc.). So whether that will fix the problem is unknown to me. Obviously, it's a very rare occurence, so I will see if I can upload a video to show what's going on.

This has happened to me when rendering from videos of dubious pedigree, like torrented divxs, could that be it ? ?
My very flaky theory about this is that vegas doesnt like, err, adult videos, or there are 'faults' in the video or maybe it is the result of too many installed codecs.
Do you get the same black clips when previewing from the timeline?
Yes, but only ever on torrented divx, and then not always, I am yet to pin down the exact reason but it was definitely worse on my old pc with a zillion codecs installed. Just a guess really, I think it has more to do with dodgy source material as it has never ever happened with captured DV footage.
Well, they're not torrented divx's, and thy're certainly not "other" videos, im merely making an MGS4 trailer and Casino Royale trailer. I don't think there are any solutions, i will try reinstall again on the new pc (when we get it)...
Thanks for your help, you'll be the first to see the new vids
Have you tried to defrag you hd and do you have the 7.0c update?

no no, i dont think you get it, theyre not even from utorrent, i got em from gamespot, theyre mpegs and wmv's. i will see how it goes on the new pc in january, ill see what happens then, and yes, i do have 7.0c

FYI: This image has been cropped and turned sideways.
So, Diplo — ex-Philly DJ of Major Lazer and the Mad Decent label — did a big old AMA on Reddit yesterday, on the occasion of his new Revolution EP. Highlights include (typos intact):
- philly was great because there no built in fans and no one will support u .. u have to do it yourself but it made all the Djs from there .. loads better then other cities. big shout to sean agnew, dave pianka, quest love, jazzy jeff, cash money trpldouble, rjd2... low budget.. everone that helped me from the beginning
- i work on songs until there is like 40 -50 versions sometimes..sounds nothing like the first idea... btu thats why they become unique maybe.. sometimes its very stressful .. right nwo I'm about to give up on this one song
- lol my parents moved!i definitely had sex in the parking lot in my Vw bus tho
- i think most of the records i make still happen spontaneously .. meet someone at a party.. or on DM on twitter.. or a late night random session thru text.. that how i always end up at 2chainz studios.
- post a pic of ur butt
- every drug has to have a come down.. that never made it worth it to me
- i think im a musician but its a few steps after being a person with good ideas or at least wierd ones and i think i can accomplish them with music right now som im trying to do it..
- i love white girls!
- im an anarchist
Uh, some of those might make more sense in context. Anyway, there was a nice little moment where Sean Agnew of R5 Productions shows up:
Sean Agnew: Am i allowed to sell your speakers that you left in my house when you moved outta Philly?
Diplo: these are only bassbins btw.. and yes highest bidder hit up Sean
Sean Agnew: I'll sell bass-bins to higest bidder on this thread. Proceeds will goto Philly schools. Bid below. Have to come to Philadelphia and pick them up. They are big and loud. Lots of famous people played on them
So there it is, a public meeting, a mini-charitable auction/Storage Wars-type scenario established to benefit Philly school music programs. Get your bass bins today.

Why God loves America!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU BETTER STRAP YOURSELF DOWN FOLKS AND GET READY FOR SOME COLD HARD TRUTH!

Anonymous Coward
Post Content
God loves freedom, goodness and people who love his son Jesus. Therefore he loves and favors the United States and Israel. God hates the devil, so he hates muslims and that is why he starves their children to death.
He also starves to death Pagans and Atheists. It is one of the reason the commies always just kill eachother and starve. Also look at all the Pagans in India. They live in shit and starve to death while doing it.
He loves us (Americans) also because we help protect his Chosen People the Israelis. God is all about love but you cross him and he kills you and your entire family.
Praise Jesus!
You need to stop drinking the raw sewage that runs down to the treatment plant at night,dude. seriously. You are completely screwed up in the head.
Care to explain your assertion?
You make yourself sound like a mental defective. Do you realize that? There are no Chosen people. Ok? Sorry,but you must be a real new Christian to not realize this. You cannot take the Bible or any so-called religion literally. If you do, you miss the entire point. God is No respecter of persons. That means He does not favor you anymore than He does me or the Jews. Nobody is special, but everybody is on equal footing when we are all before the throne. If you were knowledgeable in the spiritual things and not just the Bible, you would understand this.
5. The Modern Problem
(2075.4) 195:5.1 The twentieth century has brought new problems for Christianity and all other religions to solve.
The higher a civilization climbs, the more necessitous becomes the duty to "seek first the realities of
heaven" in all of man's efforts to stabilize society and facilitate the solution of its material problems.
(2075.5) 195:5.2 Truth often becomes confusing and even misleading when it is dismembered, segregated,
isolated, and too much analyzed. Living truth teaches the truth seeker aright only when it is embraced in
wholeness and as a living spiritual reality, not as a fact of material science or an inspiration of intervening
(2075.6) 195:5.3 Religion is the revelation to man of his divine and eternal destiny. Religion is a purely personal
and spiritual experience and must forever be distinguished from man's other high forms of thought, such
(2075.7) 195:5.4 1. Man's logical attitude toward the things of material reality.
(2075.8) 195:5.5 2. Man's aesthetic appreciation of beauty contrasted with ugliness.
(2075.9) 195:5.6 3. Man's ethical recognition of social obligations and political duty.
(2075.10) 195:5.7 4. Even man's sense of human morality is not, in and of itself, religious.
(2075.11) 195:5.8 Religion is designed to find those values in the universe which call forth faith, trust, and
assurance; religion culminates in worship. Religion discovers for the soul those supreme values which are in
contrast with the relative values discovered by the mind. Such superhuman insight can be had only through
genuine religious experience.
(2075.12) 195:5.9 A lasting social system without a morality predicated on spiritual realities can no more be
maintained than could the solar system without gravity.
(2076.1) 195:5.10 Do not try to satisfy the curiosity or gratify all the latent adventure surging within the soul in
one short life in the flesh. Be patient! be not tempted to indulge in a lawless plunge into cheap and sordid
adventure. Harness your energies and bridle your passions; be calm while you await the majestic unfolding
of an endless career of progressive adventure and thrilling discovery.
(2076.2) 195:5.11 In confusion over man's origin, do not lose sight of his eternal destiny. Forget not that Jesus
loved even little children, and that he forever made clear the great worth of human personality.
(2076.3) 195:5.12 As you view the world, remember that the black patches of evil which you see are shown
against a white background of ultimate good. You do not view merely white patches of good which show up
miserably against a black background of evil.
(2076.4) 195:5.13 When there is so much good truth to publish and proclaim, why should men dwell so much
upon the evil in the world just because it appears to be a fact? The beauties of the spiritual values of truth
are more pleasurable and uplifting than is the phenomenon of evil.
(2076.5) 195:5.14 In religion, Jesus advocated and followed the method of experience, even as modern science
pursues the technique of experiment. We find God through the leadings of spiritual insight, but we
approach this insight of the soul through the love of the beautiful, the pursuit of truth, loyalty to duty, and
the worship of divine goodness. But of all these values, love is the true guide to real insight.
wow, just wow.
I am the new Christian? You just claimed you cannot take the Word of God literally? Wow, just wow.
An education, get one.

"Beijing" Beijing by Tina-Perth
Beijing Travel Guide: 6,297 reviews and 15,872 photos
We took a long walk through Beijing from one of the hotels we stayed at (can't think of it). Walking is a great way to see things in a city including how the locals live.
We walked through this beautiful garden on our way to the Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square.
We also found very interesting little laneways with people living in a mini-community (when we got slightly lost at one stage trying to return to the hotel). No dramas though, it probably ended up being a short-cut. It was fascinating to watch and we would have missed it otherwise.
To find information about the Forbidden City, check this website:
The Forbidden City
Please refer to my tip for more information.
After our visit to the Forbidden City, we took a ride in this pedicab. Our driver let us pose with our friend Chris as the driver. God, he was such a hoot!
It is a great, but hair-raising experience to do this as traffic (including many buses came straight towards us and passed within a couple of metres. The traffic is crazy in China.

Tina, great tips and warnings-not really looking forward to those toilets tho! I will be in Beijing for the first time this September and I cant wait!
Have a great Easter weekend. Beijing toilets similar to public loos in Mauritius...yugh!
I love to be here: The Forbidden City
Yuk! Those loos Tina!! I'd look for the closest bit of scrub haha. Looks like you certainly had an interesting experience here. Hugs xx
Ah, another fan of Chinese toilets. :-)
great tips Tina. I'll have to remember the anti bacterial wipes and the imodium. lol . those loo's look totally disgusting.
Just being nosey wanted to see what China is like. I am supposed to be going to Shanghai Sept/Oct. Thanks for the insight Tina.. Love Pattypoo x
Not my kind of place for sure but I would love to see the forbidden city and the great wall. I agree about the Evian spray. A life saver in humid areas ! I always kep one in my purse now. Too bad it has to go into checked baggage. :(
I didn't know that Evian had an atomizer. I used to like to carry on a bottle of water, but those days are gone now.
No matter where you are, the air port taxi's are the worst.

Knowledge of the basic ideas and principles of science is fundamental to cultural literacy. But most books on science are often too obscure or too specialized to do the general reader much good.
Science Matters is a rare exception-a science book that is informative enough to be a popular textbook for introductory courses in high school and college, and yet free of scientific jargon and complicated mathematics. And now, this classic reference book has been revised and expanded for the first time in nearly two decades, so that readers can enjoy Hazen and Trefil's refreshingly accessible explanations of the most recent developments in science, from particle physics to biotechnology.
Hazen and Trefil bring together in one volume nothing less than the most thorough survey ever of the fundamental ideas that constitute our understanding of the universe. In 18 lucid chapters, the authors lay out the simple facts behind seemingly mystifying scientific concepts--from relativity to quantum physics to ecosystems. 28 linecuts.
"Hazen and Trefil [are] unpretentious—good, down-to-earth, we-can-explain-anything science teachers, the kind you wish you had but never did."
—The New York Times Book Review
"A book that even scientifically literate readers can consult . . . if they find their recollection of relativity or quantum mechanics getting shaky."
—New Scientist
"Ordered and accessible, never daunting, never jumping ahead of itself. . . . If you've always thought you could never understand science, Hazen and Trefil will show you you're wrong."
—Washington Monthly
"A thoughtful and concise overview of what the citizen needs to know about science."
—E. D. Hirsch, Jr.
"Science does matter, as this book shows."
—Isaac Asimov
"A model of clarity and coherence."
—Leon M. Lederman, winner of the Nobel Prize for Physics
"Lucid. . . . Will cause readers to wonder what was so confusing about the Periodic Table of Elements they confronted in their school days."
—Publishers Weekly
"A first rate exposition-thorough, accessible, and entertaining-of the rudiments of scientific knowledge."
—Kirkus Reviews
"A confident overview of the fundamentals of science. . . . Comprehensible and carefully paced."
YOUR LIFE IS FILLED with routine--you set your alarm clock at night, take a shower in the morning, brush your teeth after breakfast, pay your bills on time, and fasten your seat belt. With each of these actions and a hundred others every day you acknowledge the power of predictability. If you don't set the alarm you'll probably be late for work or school. If you don't take a shower you'll probably smell. If you don't fasten your seat belt and then get into a freeway accident you may die.
We all seek order to deal with life's uncertainties. We look for patterns to help us cope. Scientists do the same thing. They constantly examine nature, guided by one overarching principle:
The universe is regular and predictable.
The universe is not random. The sun comes up every morning, the stars sweep across the sky at night. The universe moves in regular, predictable ways. Human beings can grasp the regularities of the universe and can even uncover the basic, simple laws that produce them. We call this activity "science."
Science is one way of knowing about the world. The unspoken assumption behind the scientific endeavor is that general laws, discoverable by the human mind, exist and govern everything in the physical world. In its most advanced form, science is written in the language of mathematics, and therefore is not always easily accessible to the general public. But, like any other language, the language of science can be translated into simple English. When this is done, the beauty and simplicity of the great scientific laws can be shared by everyone.
Science is not the only way, nor always the best way, to gain an understanding of the world in which we find ourselves. Religion and philosophy help us come to grips with the meaning of life without the need for experimentation or mathematics, while art, music, and literature provide us with a kind of aesthetic, nonquantitative knowledge. You don't need calculus to tell you whether a symphony or a poem has meaning for you. Science complements these other ways of knowing, providing us with insights about a different aspect of the universe.
The Regularity of Nature
Our ancestors perceived the universe in ways that sometimes seem very strange to us. For all but the past few hundred years of human existence the universe was viewed by most people as a place without deep order or rules, governed by the whims of the gods or even by chance. By noting the daily movements of objects in the sky, however, our ancestors got their first hints that some kind of order and regularity might exist in nature. The position of the sun, the phases of the moon, and the dominant constellations of stars cycled over the years, decades, and centuries with unerring regularity. Whatever governs its motion, the fact is that the sun does come up every morning.
Most historians of science point to the need for a reliable calendar to regulate agricultural activity as the impetus for learning about what we now call astronomy. Early astronomy provided information about when to plant crops and gave humans their first formal method of recording the passage of time. Stonehenge, the 4,000-year-old ring of stones in southern Britain, is perhaps the best-known monument to the discovery of regularity and predictability in the world we inhabit. The great markers of Stonehenge point to the spots on the horizon where the sun...

If you payed attention in high school and especially if you're a science enthusiast, most of this book will somewhat familiar to you however a high level review of everything science is never a bad thing to read. This book won't be the last science book you pick up because although it's fairly shallow across all of the topics it covers (and it covers many) it will certainly introduce you to ideas that you'll want to explore further. For example, I'll be following up with a few book on quantum entanglement. I really enjoyed this book and I'd recommend it to basically anyone curious. It's fun to read and it really does cover a lot of territory: everything from cosmology to microbiology.
