Has anyone noticed this thing? ZOTAC ZT-40605-10L GeForce GT 430 (Fermi) 512MB 64... Any ideas how it folds? It is PCI, and these slots are more common the PCIe ones on the cheaper rigs. The card itself seems to be a GT430 with half the memory chips missing and thus half the memory bandwidth (half the bus is connected to nothing it seems).
I have my ancient HP Pavilion a426d as my torrent PC and running 24/7 although only with PIV 2.60Ghz...
I would not fold on anything passively cooled. The PCI limitation would not be an issue, as F@H uses little bandwidth. Folding on a P-4 S478 machine would not be worth the extra power consumption.
I was specifically interested in this gimped version sitting on PCI. It has half the memory bandwidth in addition to the slower bus.
I don't recommend trying a PCI video card for folding it seriously lacks the required bus bandwidth from CPU/ram also I don't think that it'd be white listed by F@H v7.1.33 so it's probably not even going to get the chance to fold from the get go
Anyone ever get a corrupted Fahcore_a4.exe? Noticed my ppd was down, so checked my servers, and saw my quad wasn't folding anymore. Tried deleting the work folder, didn't help, so deleted the exe, and it started right back up. System is rock solid too, so I have no idea why that happened.
Okay, one more question, anyone know where I can buy a NH-D14 or something even better for a 1st gen i7 used or dirt cheap? That's the last piece of the equation when I receive my 2nd i7 cpu. Well, ram is, but 79 bucks for 12gbs isn't an issue....
Just fold core2quad cpus, i5s, i7s, or amd bulldozers. anything else is a waste Edit: just so everyone understands my position... if my landlord found out I was folding, I would have to shut it down. I only have 15amps service for my entire apt, so I need low power alternatives. Gawd, I dream of a 200amp breaker box!
Nice... Got the 8800 running and flashed the BIOS with my traditional 70% fan speed. Temps look good, now to see if the power supply can take it or not...
I wouldn't call Folding on Fermi based cards a waste. Especially the GTX460/560. And where did you hear that BD's are worth Folding on?
Well, according to all these previews/reviews for Bulldozer rolling around, they seem comparable to Intel's i7 processors, so it's not hard to infer that they would be decent folding chips.
+1 hat, if they are server-centric multi-threaded beasts, which it sounds like they are, they should fold like a hot dam.
If anyone finds data on Bulldozer and F@H, please post the link so we can consider our future upgrades. I'm one of the many disappointed, but I have not completely given up hope for Bulldozer. EDIT:Found this @ HWC: http://www.hardwarecanucks.com/forum/cpus-motherboards/47262-amd-fx-8150-initial-folding-performance.html
So far I'm not impressed with Bulldozer-F@H. I'm going to be following this CPU folding on the new AMD FX 8150 topic on the folding forum. I was hoping to replace a lot of my AMD junk.
Going to be down a rig for awhile....damned rad sprung a leak...hope it turned itself off before it done any damage.

The title is pretty much obvious! If a movie has Steven Seagal in it, then it's going to be awesome! Fact!! Optimum have just sent us the brand new trailer for his latest movie, Deadly Crossing (which I think is actually the first episode for TV series, Southern Justice) which features Seagal kicking butt then kicking some more. The man never ages and looks pretty much the same as he did nearly 20 years ago in Under Siege. In short – he's a legend!
I'll put the synopsis here but it's a Steven Seagal movie so it'll be pretty obvious where he looks cool and saves the day. Deadly Crossing is released 27th December on DVD.
Synopsis: When an influx of violent and ruthless heroin dealers descend on Seattle, Elijah Kane (STEVEN SEAGAL) leads an elite undercover squad of cops to bring them to justice. Totally disregarding the rulebook, Kane and his crack team of law enforcers storm the city streets to clean out the drug barons by any brutal means necessary.

Today we put the greenhouse together. Yesterday was spent getting sand, gravel, bricks, pavers, and other materials for the foundation.
The most time was spent getting the foundation in the correct location and level. Since the east side of the greenhouse will be next to grass, we added a lawn barrier.
A few days earlier, Peter had dug out and tamped down a footprint for the foundation. To make sure no weeds or grass grew up, we added a weed barrier cloth over the dirt, then covered it with sand down the middle for the pavers, and pea gravel down the sides for drainage.
The instructions for putting the greenhouse together were very clear, and the panels fit together like a glove. We still have to install the automatic vent openers, add the windblock around the door, and anchor the whole thing into the ground with rebar.
As we put on the roof panels, we were really surprised at how sturdy a structure it is. Excellent design!
Yesterday Peter built a bench for the greenhouse and today he built a second bench. Several of the greenhouse catalogs were selling cedar benches anywhere from $100-$140. We built ours for $40. Thanks to the friendly folks at Dunn Lumber!

• To get more CV and covering letter advice direct to your inbox, sign up for our newsletter
If you don't put any effort into a job letter, or it's sloppily written, the chances are you'll be a lazy, unproductive and sloppy employee. Try using one of these three styles, but remember, they are just a guide - don't use them as a template.
1. Standard, conservative style for sectors such as business, law, accountancy, retail. Don't send a letter like this for a creative position - they'll stick it straight in the bin.
Dear Mr Black,
Please find enclosed my CV in application for the post advertised in the Guardian on 30 November.
The nature of my degree course has prepared me for this position. It involved a great deal of independent research, requiring initiative, self-motivation and a wide range of skills. For one course, [insert course], an understanding of the [insert sector] industry was essential. I found this subject very stimulating.
I am a fast and accurate writer, with a keen eye for detail and I should be very grateful for the opportunity to progress to market reporting. I have not only the ability to take on the responsibility of this position immediately, but also the enthusiasm and determination to ensure that I make a success of it.
Thank you for taking the time to consider this application and I look forward to hearing from you in the near future.
Yours sincerely
2. Standard speculative letter - vary according to the nature of the company.
Dear Mr Brown,
I am writing to enquire if you have any vacancies in your company. I enclose my CV for your information.
As you can see, I have had extensive vacation work experience in office environments, the retail sector and service industries, giving me varied skills and the ability to work with many different types of people. I believe I could fit easily into your team.
I am a conscientious person who works hard and pays attention to detail. I'm flexible, quick to pick up new skills and eager to learn from others. I also have lots of ideas and enthusiasm. I'm keen to work for a company with a great reputation and high profile like [insert company name].
I have excellent references and would be delighted to discuss any possible vacancy with you at your convenience. In case you do not have any suitable openings at the moment, I would be grateful if you would keep my CV on file for any future possibilities.
Yours sincerely
3. Letter for creative jobs (in this case, to be a copywriter). The aim of a creative letter is to be original and show you have imagination, but understand what the job entails. Balance is essential: don't be too wacky, or it will turn off the reader. Never send a letter like this to a conservative company.
Dear Ms Green,
· Confused by commas?
· Puzzled by parenthesis?
· Stumped by spelling?
· Perturbed by punctuation?
· Annoyed at the apostrophe? (And alliteration?)Well, you're not alone. It seems that fewer and fewer people can write. Unfortunately, there are still a lot of people who can read. So they'll spot a gaffe a mile off. And that means it's a false economy, unless you're 100% sure of yourself, to write your own materials. (Or to let clients do it for themselves.)
To have materials properly copywritten is, when one considers the whole process of publishing materials and the impact that the client wishes to make, a minor expense. Sloppiness loses clients, loses customers.
There is an answer. Me. Firm quotes are free. You can see some of what I do on my multilingual website at [insert web address]. If you'd like, I can get some samples out to you within 24 hours. And, if you use me, you'll have some sort of guarantee that you can sleep soundly as those tens of thousands of copies are rolling off the presses.
Luck shouldn't come into it!
With kindest regards

Lynette: Renee and Ben. Your wedding is one of the best days of your life because it's the day you realise, I finally have the thing I need to be happy… And then you forget. So, then, what happens is, instead of waking up every morning and shouting somebody loves me, you start looking around and thinking, what do I want now? What's the next thing I need to be happy? So, you look and you look and you keep thinking you've found it, but nothing works. And the reason that nothing works is because… that hole in your heart that you're trying to fill… Is already filled. You just forgot. Don't ever forget. Always remember how much you wanted to be loved. And how much you are loved. And I think if you can do that, and it isn't easy, you will stop looking and realise you already are happy. To Renee and Ben and to remembering.

Obama administration eyes executive action to combat online piracy - Raw Story
Submitted by Founding Fathers on Mon, 07/02/2012 - 12:23By Stephen C. Webster
Wednesday, June 27, 2012 14:56 EDT
The Obama administration is soliciting recommendations for internal policy changes, or possibly even an executive order, that would be aimed at combating online piracy in the U.S. and abroad, Raw Story has learned.
After the failure of the Protect IP Act (PIPA) and the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) earlier this year, congressional efforts to reform intellectual property laws have remained largely stalled. However, the administration still holds some power in this realm. A little-noticed solicitation for public comment published Tuesday in the federal register (PDF, see pages 99-101) seems to indicate that, like recent changes to immigration enforcement priorities, President Barack Obama may just go it alone on increasing IP enforcement measures.
Hail Pharoah
So let it be written, so let it be done! Executive action, my ass. What a thug.
Incomprehensible what this guy is going to do as a lame duck. I hope it is over soon. Only Dr. Paul can clean up this mess.
The article says they want recommendations
YES I have one!
The Government should keep their grubby fat fingers OFF the internet! They have never gotten into anything without screwing it up and causing un-needed expenses!
Will his imposition against the Internet crowd change their support? Not if Romney is the Republican nominee!
And suddenly...
Everyone will discover Tor and Freenet, backpack-sized wifi mesh network nodes, etc. They will never learn that this is a losing battle.
At this rate, I have to
At this rate, I have to wonder how long it is before they start outlawing things like Tor.
even the military uses Tor
"You underestimate the character of man." | "So be off now, and set about it."
I've been saying the same for years.. I remember when IRC #mp3 channels were emerging. The internet always stays 50 steps ahead of the politicians.. p2p, i2p, TOR, Freenet, VNC.
Cloud computing, in my opinion, is going to completely revolutionise this fight once again.
Nobody is fooled. They should try honesty and just come out and say it:
"We want control of the Internet so we can tax it."
They want power over the
They want power over the internet so they can control it and make it say what they want it to say. They want to be able to spy on the people. The Republicans want to tax it to pay their rich friends and the Democrats want to tax it to spend it on more entitlements for their impoverished constituents. Both parties believe in giveaways, they just differ on who to give those giveaways to. When the president acts like a king he will do anything to retain his power.
its more than that...
50 percent is tax-revenue/corporatist-protectionism motives. The rest is information warrr. Internet the last quasi-free place on earth... for now
They also want to control the conversation
I'm sure they love the idea of taxing the internet but I think it's very important to them to control the conversation online. DailyPaul would be shut down or highly censored. There's that famous line about how people would revolt tomorrow if they understood how the banking system works. Well with the power of the internet, people can actually learn it.
deep web
but the Internet is like an Island of freedom. If they regulate the mainstream web, I think going deep web would hurt our chances of ever establishing Liberty. They want to push us into the Underground so we can never inform anyone.

Let's talk more about that debt ceiling Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner after yesterday's close of trading made a surprise announcement.
And not about the fiscal -- deal he said the US is gonna hit that debt ceiling Monday new years -- Of course there are certain things that the government can do to put that date off by a couple months listening Donald is here with much more on the fight and how well.
-- it won't you talk good morning and you know Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner has been warning that the US may hit its -- -- limit.
New years eve for months now so what are the extraordinary measures you know 'cause we've seen this before the US -- hit the debt ceiling 78 times since 1962.
Again they're talking about suspending sale of US securities for state local governments suspending payments to government pensions and tapping an exchange -- -- stabilization fund.
This is -- -- -- -- -- billion dollars now to avoid default and -- us talking about.
When that the US will default the big story isn't that right and then the bond markets is that the US will continue to pay its principal and interest -- ever.
The idea now is that will the bond market demand higher yields and that's a real problem -- say something.
We've seen that treasury -- and secretary of the treasury -- Look for more breathing room like this in the past you know under Reagan they tap the Social Security funds and in 1985 -- it wasn't a lockbox -- -- And you know back and then mid ninety's they basically made the same measure suspending payments -- government.
Pension funds that you know the -- threat -- default the threat of the debt ceiling fight in the mid ninety's.
What's thought what caused the government to shut down back then to under the Clinton administration -- a fight over an appropriations bill not a threat over default.
So you know to put this song prospective.
That this is going to be about the blame game hitting full swing this is about DC political theater being at its most erotic.
And -- some most of the interesting thing I think reviewers that there is what Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner said in his letter that the tax filing season.
Could be delayed.
Because of what's going on Washington DC so that's how it really affects.
Viewers -- -- it and an individual level.
Tax refunds can get delayed yet that's the important point as the IRS has to reprogram its computers if the filing season so I -- because if you owe money -- are not get anything back that would be.
I -- outside of that noise get an extension but muted despite Andy -- what does -- dysfunction and Liz that's what's so infuriating you know what.
That's it just and because it's at what point does the market care about DC political dysfunction right so.
I mean right now we're seeing the markets pretty quiescent and we're seeing the bond markets rather -- Bill Gross of Pimco has said.
Look at this won't last -- long we saw this in 9394.
Yeah this is the key point -- -- and this is when the when the economy was healing in 9394.
Bond yields started to rise right they went from we have three to 4% of the -- 5% 6%.
And that's when he had treasury sector Robert Rubin saying wait a second we need fiscal report we need welfare reform so really it's about the economy healing and the bond market -- -- and -- -- interested.
As the US as a safe haven.
Flooding into stocks I know the markets haven't you know what they would get they would get on the stick in DC fuels more rising but had not -- that that's the point on we don't see the bond vigilantes an action right now but we will.
Fiscal austerity will come in the bond markets demanded in the form of higher yields we're not seeing that NN says have been saying enough for a long time so have you played -- thank you -- -- flooding in China actually not good but I -- -- -- the scene where lucky.

Product Description
solar collector
Flat-plate collectors are the most common solar collectors for use in solar water-heating systems in homes and in solar space heating. A flat-plate collector consists basically of an insulated metal box with a glass or plastic cover (the glazing) and a dark-colored absorber plate. Solar radiation is absorbed by the absorber plate and transferred to a fluid that circulates through the collector in tubes. In an air-based collector the circulating fluid is air, whereas in a liquid-based collector it is usually water.
Flat-plate collectors heat the circulating fluid to a temperature considerably less than that of the boiling point of water and are best suited to applications where the demand temperature is 30-70°C (86-158°F) and/or for applications that require heat during the winter months.
Flat collectors can be mounted in a variety of ways, depending on the type of building, application, and size of collector. Options include mounting on a roof, in the roof itself, or free-standing.

I also get this same 67ms delay with some files I've muxed with MP4muxer. Anyone know why this would happen? Does this mean the files have slightly out of sync audio? Why is the delay always 67ms? I never have this issue with MKV files from Handbrake.

Savegame Deemer - saves, loads unencrypted savedata for any game |
Listed in: Homebrew Applications Tags: Hellcat, Hex, psp homebrews, savedata
In a nut shell, this allows the PlayStation Portable to save any savedata in unencrypted form as well as the normal way. An unencrypted savedata, as you know, can be directly edited with a number of different tools like hex editor for example.
Hellcat mentioned that except for intentional delays during loading and saving to prevent conflict with other threads, there are currently no known negative side effects that come with Savegame Deemer. To make things clearer, here are its other functions when active:
- If unencrypted savedata for the current load is present it will be loaded instead of the normal/encrypted one.
- When saving, there's always the unencrypted version saved alongside.
- If no unencrypted data exists for the current load, the normal/encrypted one is loaded as if nothing ever happened.
- So, if you want to use your normal savedata again, either disable this plugin or delete the unencrypted version from /PSP/SAVEPLAIN.

When it comes to religion, everyone has some kind of position. In the modern context both God and religion are dead, though the devoutly religious among us may deny it. Secular humanism has replaced religion as the moral ground for our actions, with science, reason and logic providing the framework for the understanding and application of our morality. Yet, with all the intellectual tools available to modern man, morality seems more than ever to be some kind of chimera, shifting and reshaping on a situational basis and managed by those in a position of advantage. In other words, our morality, like history, is being shaped by the winners.
The realization that morality has fallen into an instrumental, utilitarian, philosophical box and meted out at the whim of a power elite in the form of justice and human rights based on their current economic and social paradigms immediately brings to mind Jung—and his study of the dark side of human nature, what he called "the shadow." In all cases, the shadow leads back to our understanding of god. Jung worked through his own view of the nature of man and god by observing his patients and their presentation of archetypical behaviour, and his study of alchemy and mandalas—all connections to ancient symbolism relating to the origins of—and the need for—a personal god, that is some force that is "extra-mundane" or above worldly influence and control. This may seem at odds with the current scientific or philosophic mindset. But before forming a judgment, let's look at what Jung says.
"Modern psychological development leads to a much better understanding as to what man really consists of. The gods at first lived in superhuman power and beauty on the top of snow-clad mountains or in the darkness of caves, woods and seas. Later on they grew together into one god, and then that god became man. But in our day even the God-man seems to have descended from his throne and to be dissolving himself into the common man. That is probably why his seat is empty. Instead, the common man suffers from a hybris [hubris] of consciousness that borders on the pathological. This psychic condition in the individual corresponds by and large to the hypertrophy and totalitarian pretentions of the idealized State. In the same way that the State has caught the individual, the individual imagines that he has caught the psyche and holds her in the palm of his hand. He is even making a science of her in the absurd supposition that the intellect, which is but a part and function of the psyche, is sufficient to comprehend the much greater whole."
Jung makes the observation that science is simply an offshoot of our consciousness, the tip of the iceberg of human psychic reality. In recognizing that, unlike the narrow confines of consciousness, the psyche is far larger, Jung identifies the psyche as archaic and primordial, an ancient, universal mind that encompasses all of our evolutionary developments and contains, along with the rational, the Great Terror and darkness that permeates the collective unconscious of all life. He explains:
"In reality, the psyche is the mother and the maker, the subject and even the possibility of consciousness itself. It reaches so far beyond the boundaries of consciousness that the latter could easily be compared to an island in the ocean. Whereas the island is small and narrow, the ocean is immensely wide and deep and contains a life infinitely surpassing, in kind and degree, anything known on the island—so that if it is a question of space it does not matter if the gods are "inside" or "outside." It might be objected that there is no proof that consciousness is nothing more than an island in the ocean. Certainly it is impossible to prove this, since the known range of consciousness is confronted with the unknown extension of the unconscious, of which we only know that it exists and by the very fact of its existence exerts a limiting influence on consciousness and its freedom. Wherever unconsciousness reigns, there is bondage and possession."
What Jung is telling us here, is that our consciousness is bounded and contained by the vast, unknowable unconscious, holding us captive within something we don't understand or comprehend. He goes on…
"The immensity of the ocean is simply a comparison; it expresses in allegorical form the capacity of the unconscious to limit and threaten consciousness. Empirical psychology loved, until recently, to explain the "unconscious" as mere absence of consciousness—the term indicates as much—just as shadow is an absence of light. Today accurate observation of unconscious processes has recognized, with all other ages before us, that the unconscious possesses a creative autonomy such as a mere shadow could never be endowed with."
So Jung sees the unconscious as a creative ocean and identifies with Carus, von Hartman, Schopenhauer and others who have equated the unconscious with the world-creating principle, in Jung's words as "the mysterious agent personified as the gods." God, then, is the personification of the mysterious world creation force. Jung explains:
"It suits our hypertrophied and hybristic [hubristic] modern consciousness not to be mindful of the dangerous autonomy of the unconscious and to treat it negatively as the absence of consciousness. The hypothesis of invisible gods or daemons would be, psychologically, a far more appropriate formulation, even though it would be an anthropomorphic projection."
In other words, Jung is simply saying that having a god is a healthier psychological proposition than not having a god. But obviously there's still that modern scientific problem…
"But since the development of consciousness requires the withdrawal of all projections we can lay our hands on, it is not possible to maintain any non-psychological doctrine about the gods. It the historical process of world despiritualization continues hitherto, then everything of a divine of daemonic character outside us must return to the psyche, to the inside of the unknown man, whence it apparently originated."
So has Jung merely brought us full circle? Not really.
"The materialistic error was probably unavoidable at first. Since the throne of God could not be discovered among the galactic systems, the inference was that God had never existed. The second unavoidable error was psychologism: if God is anything, he must be an illusion derived from certain motives—from will to power, for instance, or from repressed sexuality. These arguments are not new. Much the same thing was said by the Christian missionaries who overthrew the idols of heathen gods. But whereas the early missionaries were conscious of serving a new God by combating the old ones, modern iconoclasts are unconscious of the one in whose name they are destroying old values."
Jung now begins to address the modern worldview through Nietzsche's eyes.
"Nietzsche thought himself quite conscious and responsible when he smashed the old tablets, yet he felt a peculiar need to back himself up with a revivified Zarathustra, a sort of alter ego, with whom he often identifies himself in his great tragedy Thus Spake Zarathustra. Nietzsche was no atheist, but his God was dead. The result of this demise was a split in himself, and he felt compelled to call the other self "Zarathustra" or, at times, "Dionysus." In this fatal illness he signed his letters "Zagreus," the dismembered god of the Thracians. The tragedy of Zarathustra is that, because his God died, Nietzsche himself became a god; and this happened because he was no atheist. He was of too positive a nature to tolerate the urban neurosis of atheism. It seems dangerous for such a man to assert that "God is dead": he instantly becomes the victim of inflation."
By inflation Jung means sublimating the non-personal aspects of the psyche, aspects of the vast ocean, as if these were acquired personally, thereby partially regressing into the unconscious resulting in a dissolution of the ego into its paired opposites such a good and evil—definitely a recognizable Nietzschean theme. This, then, begins man's Promethean struggle without a god. Jung goes on…
"Far from being a negation, God is actually the strongest and most effective "position" the psyche can reach, in exactly the same sense in which Paul speaks of people "whose God is their belly." The strongest and therefore most decisive factor in any individual psyche compels the same belief or fear, submission or devotion which a God would demand from man. Anything despotic and inescapable in this sense is "God," and it becomes absolute unless, by an ethical decision freely chosen, one succeeds in building up against this natural phenomenon a positive that is equally strong and invincible."
What Jung is telling us is that, whether we consciously agree to it or not, our psyche is hardwired to create a god of any natural force beyond our control. But, he points out, we have a choice. We can consciously choose a more powerful counterforce.
"If this psychic position proves to be absolutely effective, it surely deserves to be named a "God," and what is more, a spiritual God, since it sprang from the freedom of ethical decision and therefore from the mind. Man is free to decide whether "God" shall be a "spirit" or a natural phenomenon like the craving of a morphine addict, and hence whether "God" shall act as a beneficent or a destructive force.
"However indubitable and clearly understandable their psychic events or decisions may be, they are very apt to lead people to the false, unpsychological conclusion that it rests with them to decide whether they will create a "God" for themselves or not. There is no question that, since each of us is equipped with a psychic disposition that limits our freedom in high degree and makes it practically illusory. Not only is "freedom of the will" an incalculable problem philosophically, it is also a misnomer in the practical sense, for we seldom find anybody who is not influenced and indeed dominated by desires, habits, impulses, prejudices, resentments, and by every conceivable kind of complex."
So what is Jung telling us? That we need to have a god but can't create a god (such as recasting ourselves as God)? That's exactly what he's saying. Jung tells us that it's not a matter of creating, but a matter of being possessed—like our response to fear—which is something the psyche understands. Our gods are already created.
"Bondage and possession are synonymous. Always, therefore, there is something in the psyche that takes possession and limits or suppresses our moral freedom. In order to hide this undeniable but exceedingly unpleasant fact from ourselves and at the same time pay lip-service to freedom, we have become accustomed to saying apotropaically, "I have such and such a desire or habit or feeling of resentment," instead of the more veracious, "Such and such a desire or habit or feeling of resentment has me." The latter reformulation would certainly rob us even of the illusion of freedom. But I ask myself whether this would not be better in the end than fuddling ourselves with words. The truth is that we do not enjoy masterless freedom; we are continually threatened by psychic factors which, in the guise of "natural phenomena," may take possession of us at any moment."
And here is where Jung identifies the psychic need for God.
"The withdrawal of metaphysical projections leaves us almost defenceless in the face of this happening, for we immediately identify with every impulse instead of giving it the name of "the other," which would at least hold it at arm's length and prevent it from storming the citadel of the ego."
And in modern terms, we do seem defenceless. Jung continues:
"'Principalities and powers' are always with us; we have no need to create them even if we could. It is merely incumbent on us to choose the master we wish to serve, so that his service shall be our safeguard against being mastered by the "other" whom we have not chosen. We do not create "God," we choose him. So what are the characteristics of that choice?
"Though our choice characterizes and defines "God," it is always man-made, and the definition it gives is therefore finite and imperfect. (Even the idea of perfection does not posit perfection.) The definition is an image, but this image does not raise the unknown fact it designates into the realm of intelligibility, otherwise we would be entitled to say we had created a God. The "master" we choose is not identical with the image we project of him in time and space. He goes on working as before, like an unknown quantity in the depths of the psyche. We do not even know the nature of the simplest thought, let alone the ultimate principles of the psyche. Also we have no control over its inner life. But because this inner life is intrinsically free and not subject to our will and intentions, it may easily happen that the living thing chosen and defined by us will drop out if its setting, the man-made image, even against our will. Then, perhaps, we could say with Nietzsche, 'God is dead.'"
And then what? How do we handle this loss of faith?
"Yet it would be truer to say, "He has put off our image, and where shall we find him again?" The interregnum is full of danger, for the natural facts will raise their claim in the form of various –isms, which are productive of nothing but anarchy and destruction because inflation and man's hybris between them have elected the ego, in all its ridiculous paltriness, lord of the universe. That was the case with Nietzsche, the uncomprehending portent of a whole epoch."
Thus is Nietzsche and his conscious ego trap dispatched.
"The individual ego is much too small, its brain is much too feeble, to incorporate all the projections withdrawn from the world. Ego and brain burst asunder in the effort; the psychiatrist calls it schizophrenia. When Nietzsche said "God is dead," he uttered a truth which is valid for the greater part of Europe. People were influenced by it, not because he said so, but because it stated a widespread psychological fact. The consequences were not long delayed: after a fog of –isms, the catastrophe [Hitler and the Second World War]. Nobody thought of drawing the slightest conclusions from Nietzsche's pronouncement. Yet it has, for some ears, the same eerie sounds as that ancient cry which became the echoing over the sea to mark the end of the nature gods: "Great Pan is dead."
And on that thought Jung points to the present destruction of the ecosystem itself, through the denial of our gods, those inner psychic forces that might reign in our impulses before it's too late.
Jung possessed an astonishing mind—as do each of us—into which our gods are apparently extremely deeply rooted. What we choose to do with those gods remains to be seen.

Dear ___________,
I am writing to express my strong opposition to Anytown High School administration's recent decision to close the campus at lunch.
For more than 20 years, students have been able to leave campus during the lunch period. This has afforded them the opportunity to seek out diverse and healthful meal options as well as boost the local economy. In fact, several businesses deliberately chose to locate near the school in order to serve the lunchtime and after-school needs of students.
It is my understanding that vandalism at the nearby shopping center, presumably by high school students, is what prompted the closure of the campus at lunch. I vehemently disagree with this rationale. Well-behaved, trustworthy students should not be punished for the actions of a few.
I believe that an open campus fosters responsibility and a sense of community in high school students. The fact that anyone causing trouble off campus during lunch is barred from leaving the campus during future lunch periods should be enough to deal with these rare instances.
I plan to attend the Board of Trustees meeting on which this issue is agendized, and myself and other supporters of an open campus policy have prepared comments urging the board to reconsider the high school administration's action.

Hi, (not you?) | Member Center | Sign Out
Posted: 3:35 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 9, 2013
By Doug Harris
Staff Writer
When the Dayton women's basketball team travels to Butler for its Atlantic 10 opener on Saturday, the Bulldogs had better be ready to deal with more than just a powerhouse squad still stinging from its first loss of the season.
The Flyers also will be bringing their own fan support.
Duplicating a promotion they held last year for the Xavier road game, the Flyers offered fans a complimentary ticket and free bus ride to Indianapolis, and the response was overwhelming.
Three charter buses were needed to accommodate those who signed up, and 168 fans will leave from UD Arena at 8:30 a.m. for the noon game. They'll see a video highlight package during the trip along with a message from 10th-year coach Jim Jabir.
The UD marketing department is paying for the first bus, while the cost for other two will come out of the women's basketball budget.
"When you look at where we've come in 10 years, to get three busloads of people coming to a HOME game would have been a feat," Jabir said. "For these people to spend an afternoon traveling all the way to Indianapolis just to support the kids is great. It says a lot about where we've come, and we're all very, very grateful for it.
"We've developed relationships with these people. They truly do care. They've bought in. They really, really have a feeling of ownership with the program. They feel proprietary. It's their team, and I think that's wonderful."
The Flyers (12-1) have been nationally ranked for eight straight weeks and are No. 17 in the coaches poll and 22nd in the AP Top 25. But the A-10 preseason favorites were knocked from the ranks of the unbeaten with a 65-40 setback at Bowling Green on Dec. 30.
"We've addressed some issues that plagued us the last time out. I'd like to think we're ready to go," Jabir said.
"I think (at BG) we were kind of cocky and full of ourselves, actually. I don't think we were ready to play. I think they were pretty primed and ready. They remembered last year when we beat them by 30. And I think being 12-0 probably played games with our heads. We've addressed that, too."
Men's basketball: Fewer than 500 tickets are available for Flyers' game with 14th-ranked Butler at 2 p.m. Saturday. The tickets are in the top corners of the arena and cost $20 for adults and $10 for high school students and children (ages 2 and under are free).
UD has a surplus because students are still on semester break. They start classes again Monday, and about 400 have claimed tickets for the game, down from the usual 1,200.
UD began giving students a longer holiday break last year, which has cut into attendance. Still, the Flyers' average crowd has been 12,243, about 100 more than last season.
Tickets can be purchased at DaytonFlyers.com or by calling (937) 229-4433.
A few single-seat A-10 ticket packages also are still available at $80. In addition to Butler, the eight-game set includes the clash with rival Xavier, which is otherwise sold out.

Last Sunday afternoon I'm flew from Las Vegas back to Portland on Southwest Airlines. I played poker at Bally's Saturday night until 8am Sunday morning, slept for 3 hours, hit the buffet, and then went to the airport.
I was unable to get a direct flight, and had a flight that stopped in Reno on the way to Portland... fine with me, I'll just sleep the whole way home. I woke up with the plane on the ground in Reno. Everybody else had exited except for the handfull of passengers continuing to Portland. I decided to move to an exit row to get more leg room for the second segment of the flight when I notice my bag is missing. I checked the whole plane. GONE! There was another black bag in the same overhead bin where I had put my bag.
I told the flight attendant what had happened. They made sure the other black bag didn't belong to anyone still on the plane and determined somebody must have taken my bag by accident. Luckily the remaining bag had a tag on it, so I figure I'll call the guy and have him bring it back to the gate. Then I realize my cell phone is in my bag. Oops. Then I realize my car keys are in the bag. OH CRAP. Then I realize my house keys are in the bag. OH S#|T
The flight attendant tryies calling the number on the bag and leaves a message on the voicemail. By now the plane is loaded with passengers again and ready to take off. I got the guy's name, address, and phone number off the bag before they removed it from the plane. We take off and I'm headed to Portland with no way to get home, or get inside once I do get home.
We land and I go directly to the Southwest baggage office where they inform me that my bag has been turned in at Reno and will be on the next flight to Portland... which is in 6 hours. At this point I'm exhausted and want nothing more than to go to bed, but I got to spend the next 7 hours (flight was delayed) sitting in baggage claim waiting. I bought a book, but was too tired to read. The benches were too uncomfortable to sleep. I'm stuck in baggage claim pergatory. Finally my bag comes in and I make it home about 1am on roughly 4 hours of sleep. I don't know what I would have done if it didn't come in that night.
I'm trying to decide if I should sent the jerk who took my bag a nasty letter. I still have his address. It turns out he is a doctor! I hope he never accidentally takes out the wrong kidney! I will say all the Southwest employees were very helpful and friendly, which made things a little easier, and I plan on sending them a nice letter.
Moral of the story: Watch your bags, even in the overhead bin. Some people, even some doctors, apparently can't tell the difference between their $39 Wal-Mart special and my TravelPro Platinum III.

Renewable Energy Certificate and Green Power Markets
NREL's market analysis group examines the implications of customer choice on the market demand for renewable energy as well as renewable energy certificate (REC) markets that have emerged for compliance with state renewable energy standards. They have tracked the status of voluntary markets for renewable energy and conducted analyses of regional REC market demand.
Key Analyses for 2012
Status of Green Power Marketing
SEAC analysts Jenny Heeter, Philip Armstrong, and Lori Bird published
"Market Brief: Status of the Voluntary Renewable Energy Certificate Market
(2011 Data)."
This report documents the status and trends of U.S. 'compliance' markets — renewable energy certificate (REC) markets used to meet state renewable portfolio standard (RPS) requirements — and 'voluntary' markets — those in which consumers and institutions purchase renewable energy to match their electricity needs on a voluntary basis. Compliance and voluntary REC markets continue to exhibit growth and spur renewable energy development. Voluntary green power markets provide an additional revenue stream for renewable energy projects and raise consumer awareness of the benefits of renewable energy. Although a full estimate of the size of the voluntary market is not available for 2011, this review uses indicative metrics to capture 2011 voluntary market trends.
Green Power Network
The Green Power Network (GPN) provides news and information on green power markets and related activities. The site provides up-to-date information on green power providers, product offerings, consumer protection issues, and policies affecting green power markets. It also includes a reference library of relevant papers, articles and reports.

The Health Care Leader Action Guide to Reduce Avoidable Readmissions is a unique guide for hospital leaders that gathers the strategies found in the main interventions for lowering the rate of avoidable readmissions and synthesizes them into one easy-to-use resource. This free, downloadable guide was developed after a collaborative meeting with leaders on the subject. It was funded and produced by the Commonwealth Fund, the John A. Hartford Foundation, and the Health Research & Educational Trust (HRET) of the American Hospital Association. You can download it at www.hret.org/readmissions. |
