This Emotional Life
NOVA/WGBH Science Unit and Vulcan Productions, Inc., 2010
iTunes ($4.99); DVD ($34.99)
You might want to think of yourself as a rational person, but when it comes to your emotions, you're pretty powerless. The amygdala—the ancient brain region that controls how you feel—has numerous pathways through which it influences the brain's decision-making area, the prefrontal cortex. The cortex, on the other hand, has virtually no influence on the amygdala—connections in that direction simply do not exist. The result: we are, in essence, slaves to our emotions.
It is this emotional vulnerability that makes our lives and relationships as rich and colorful as they are, according to the PBS television series This Emotional Life, hosted by Harvard University social psychologist Daniel Gilbert. The show, which first aired January 4–6 and can now be purchased via iTunes or on DVD, explores in three episodes how our emotions shape our relationships, our fears and our happiness.
This Emotional Life focuses on the gripping stories of Americans who have fallen victim to their emotions. We meet a family ripped apart by school bullying and another struggling to understand why their adopted son has so many attachment problems. We learn what it is like to grow up with Asperger's syndrome, a mild form of autism associated with difficulty expressing emotions and forming social bonds. We also discover why it is so difficult to correctly predict what will make us happy and why love is both so important to us and yet so difficult to master. "In many ways, navigating the social world is more complicated than a voyage to the moon," Gilbert says. "But it's a journey we have to take, because whether we like it or not, our happiness is in each other's hands."
This Emotional Life is an emotional experience in itself. If you are anything like me, you will find yourself holding back tears more than once and feeling strong connections to the people you are watching. But the fact that the show draws you in so deeply simply proves its point: our emotions frequently get the best of us. But you know what? That's okay.

I love ET as a company, but their "pro pricing" is more than I can bear now.
WHen things were good it was cool to pay $375 to hold my battery, or $500 to hold my hard drive, but now... I need things to "work" even though they may not work perfectly. Cost matters. While I have not been hit full on with the economy, I expect too for the first few months of '09. So am being very careful.
But when I can afford "the best" I go ET.

GREENBURGH, N.Y. -- Since the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and reports that the planes that hit the World Trade Center flew over the Indian Point nuclear power plants in Buchanan, Greenburgh officials have been in the forefront of calling for the closure of the controversial facilities.
With the federal Nuclear Regulatory Commission currently reviewing an application from Entergy to renew permits for the two operating plants for another 20 years, the Greenburgh Town Board earlier this week decided to renew its strong position against Indian Point producing electricity beyond 2015.
"It has been now shown that the metropolitan New York region does not need the power produced by the Indian Point plant," the board's resolution said. "Entergy has applied for 20-year extensions to operate the plants to an age of 60 years when there is no reliable data about the safety of 40 to 60-year-old nuclear power plants. The safety record of Indian Point is among the worst in the country with a substantial number of safety requirements still not fulfilled."
Gov. Andrew Cuomo has continually lobbied against Indian Point and any hiccups at the plant, such as the temporary shut down of Indian Point 3 this week due to combustible gases found in an auxiliary transformer, often trigger an outcry of opponents lashing out at the facility.
Greenburgh Supervisor Paul Feiner said many other municipalities jumped on the anti-Indian Point bandwagon after the town made its feelings known.
"Some local governments around the region are again approving similar resolutions," Feiner said. "This is timely."
The license for Indian Point 2 expires in 2013. Indian Point 3 is licensed to operate until 2015. Approximately 20 million people live within 50 miles of the plants.

I know I've mentioned this before but I thought it was worth a minute to see if anyone else has the same problems as me.
Whilst using my ipad and iphone the site frequently crashes closing my safari browser and a couple of times has crashed it badly enough to wipe all the open tabs as well.
Thought I would mention it as it's the main reason I hardly post here anymore and it seems as more people are using mobile devices it might become more viable to make a mobile friendly version.
Just my thoughts, would be interested to see if others suffer the crashing issue and would like a mobile version.

While most understand the business case surrounding internationalization (i18n) — establish an international footprint, make products easier to use around the world, etc. — many find it difficult to gain the necessary support to scope and assess their application. Charged with gaining executive support, learning technical i18n implementation needs, and assuring localization quality, VMware approached Lingoport with assistance on these issues. Lingoport helped VMware to generate a robust i18n assessment, and assist in …
The recording from yesterday's webinar, Path to Agile Localization is now available for request. The Lingoport team was joined by translation technology expert Richard Sikes as they discussed how localization can be made into an Agile process. We received many great questions during the webinar, including how to deal with rapid UI changes, tips for continuous refactoring for i18n & L10n, in-context localization for Agile sprints and how to manage localized files.

Connecting Development and Localization, New Technology Automates Translated File Management
Today, Lingoport announced that it has released Lingoport Resource Manager (LRM) to support development projects in their localization efforts. By optimizing the manual and often error-prone process of resource file management, LRM effectively bridges the gap between development and localization, ridding the two areas of unnecessary testing iterations and file confusion.
In a press release sent out today, Lingoport President noted:
"During our product
From Lingoport's October 2012 Newsletter:
While we are known for our i18n tools, many clients realize great value and successful globalized releases from our internationalization services team.

We can augment and work side by side with your developers and know how to plan and match a project to …
Targeting a first time internationalization effort for Canada is one of the more forgiving target locales from a technical risk perspective when working with code that is US English-centric.

Oct. 26 is Principal Appreciation Day
SPRINGFIELD — Lifetouch Inc., GEBBS, and the Illinois Principals Association (IPA) encourage all communities in Illinois to celebrate Principal Appreciation Week Oct. 22-26, and culminate with Principal Appreciation Day on Oct. 26. This state-endorsed recognition was first approved by the governor of Illinois in 1990 and is annually celebrated.
"Very few individuals have the ability to impact a student's life like our educational leaders do every day," said Aaron Hill, president of the Illinois Principals Association. "The overall operation, vision and success of a school lies directly with the building administrator. All building administrators work tirelessly to ensure the success of our schools and to make sure our students are provided every opportunity to succeed. I encourage everyone to observe Principal Appreciation Day as our educational leaders deserve recognition for their dedication to our students."
"Research has proven that the building principal's impact on student achievement is second only to that of the classroom teacher when considering school based factors," said Jason Leahy, IPA executive director. "Principals and educational leaders impact students' lives in a significant way. Speaking as a former principal and having visited dozens of schools throughout Illinois, the quality of a school's learning environment and the ability of a school to do what is best for its students comes as a direct result of the leadership provided by the school's principal and leadership team. Courageous leadership is essential to effectively educate students and work to provide the resources and support they need to be successful in the 21st Century. It is important that we recognize and encourage our schools' leaders."

Studies of tire safety show that maintaining proper tire pressure, observing tire and vehicle load limits (not carrying more weight in your vehicle than your tires or vehicle can safely handle), avoiding road hazards, and inspecting tires for cuts, slashes, and other irregularities are the most important things you can do to avoid tire failure, such as tread separation or blowout and flat tires. These actions, along with other care and maintenance activities, can also:
Use this information to make tire safety a regular part of your vehicle maintenance routine. Recognize that the time you spend is minimal compared with the inconvenience and safety consequences of a flat tire or other tire failure.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Democratic leaders say they have worked out a last-minute dispute, clearing the way for a sweeping health care bill to move ahead in the House.
Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Henry Waxman of California said Friday he reached a deal with liberals and conservative Democrats on his panel. Earlier this week, Democratic leaders had settled differences with the fiscally conservative Blue Dog Democrats, but then liberals complained that too many concessions were made. They threatened to oppose the bill.
Waxman said the agreement restores some of the subsidies to help low- and middle-income Americans get health insurance.
He said he was confident he has the votes for his committee — the last of three — to pass the bill Friday before lawmakers leave Washington for a monthlong recess.
THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.
WASHINGTON (AP) — As recently as two weeks ago it might not have looked like much of a victory. But after a series of delays and some rancorous disputes over President Barack Obama's top domestic priority, final House committee action on a health overhaul bill is sure to be hailed as a big step forward.
The House Energy and Commerce Committee, the final of three House committees to act, was expected to complete work Friday on sweeping legislation that seeks to hold down costs and provide health care to nearly all the 50 million uninsured.
It comes on the House's final day in session before lawmakers leave Washington for their annual monthlong summer recess. With committee action completed majority Democrats will be able to return to their districts claiming momentum on health care — even though up until recently the goal was to have legislation all the way through the House by the recess.
"The American people will have a chance to see what's in it for them, and our members will have a chance to discuss this with their constituents," said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. "And when they come back in September, we'll take up the legislation."
The progress in the House was not matched in the Senate, where bipartisan negotiators announced they needed additional time to produce any agreement for their committee to review.
Sen. Max Baucus, D-Mont., chairman on the Finance Committee, said it would be September before the panel could act, a setback for Democratic leaders who hoped to wrap up all committee work before recess with final action in the Senate Finance Committee as well as the House Energy and Commerce Committee.
"The president, Leader (Harry) Reid and I share the goal of a bipartisan bill and we will continue to work toward meaningful, bipartisan legislation that can pass the Senate and become law this year," Baucus said in a statement Thursday after a day of uncertainty in which months of negotiations briefly appeared to veer off-course.
In the House, action in the Energy and Commerce Committee had been stalled for over a week as Waxman sought to quell objections from a group of seven fiscally conservative Democrats who hold enough votes on his panel to block action. Waxman succeeded Wednesday in getting a deal with four of the seven — more than enough to allow him to move legislation forward — but only by making concessions that incurred the wrath of House liberals.
The liberals are angry that subsidies to help low-income people buy care would be shrunk under the deal. They also say they can't support a proposed new structure for a government-run insurance option, which would allow payment rates to providers to be negotiated rather than based on Medicare rates as originally envisioned. The result could be costlier care.
Liberals on the Energy and Commerce Committee were looking at proposing new cost savings or revenue increases in place of the subsidy cuts in committee action Friday. Waxman will have to work to lock down their support while keeping the fiscally conservative Blue Dog Democrats on board, but he was expected to prevail.
There was late-night drama in Waxman's committee Thursday as an anti-abortion amendment passed when conservative Democrats joined Republicans to support it — then failed less than two hours later when Waxman used a procedural maneuver to bring it up for a second vote.
In the intervening time one conservative Democrat — Rep. Bart Gordon of Tennessee — changed his vote from "yes" to "no." And a second conservative Democrat who hadn't voted the first time — Rep. Zack Space of Ohio — voted "no." It was enough to take the amendment down on a vote of 29 to 30.
The measure would have specified that health care legislation moving through Congress may not impose requirements for coverage of abortion, except in limited cases.
The committee approved a Democratic-written measure specifying that abortions would not be required as part of government-approved insurance benefit packages. The measure, which passed 30-28, says health plans in a new purchasing exchange aren't required to cover abortion but that each region of the country should have at least one plan that does so.
The amendment also limits the use of federal funding for abortions. Democrats cast the measure as a compromise but Republicans mostly opposed it.

UK Parliamentarians hail remarkable post-conflict progress |
Thursday, 28 October 2010 | |
A cross party delegation from the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association (CPA) – UK Branch , which was in Sri Lanka on the invitation of the Parliament of Sri Lanka said that the progress made by the Government on the resettlement of the internally displaced people in the North and the East was "remarkable". This was conveyed during an interaction the delegation had with Minister of External Affairs Prof. G. L. Peiris, on 22nd October 2010. Rt. Hon Paul Murphy, MP (Labour), leader of delegation, on behalf of the delegation expressed appreciation for the opportunity afforded by the Government of Sri Lanka for them to visit the country and to observe first-hand the post –conflict progress made in Sri Lanka. He recalled his previous visit to Sri Lanka in 2006, under very different circumstances and stated that this time, following the delegation's visit to the North and the East, it was clear that peace had been restored in all parts of the country. The delegation was also appreciative of the opportunity afforded by the Government to visit the few remaining IDP sites and to meet with a cross-section of the people, civil society representatives as well as civilians. The delegation had witnessed that remarkable progress was underway in the country, particularly with the resettlement of IDP's, reconstruction of infrastructure as well as restoration of security. The Delegation stressed the need for replicating the progress made in the East, particularly in the areas of infrastructure development and economic empowerment, in the North as well. Lord Sheikh, Conservative MP stated that as a Muslim parliamentarian, he was personally impressed by the progress he had witnessed in the Eastern Province where the contribution and participation of Muslims was prominent. Minister Peiris briefed the delegation on the current developments including with regard to the resettlement of the displaced, provision of livelihood for the people and the ongoing focus on infrastructure development. He said that the numbers of IDP's in the sites were down to around 18,000 from the initial 280,000. As soon as the demining was completed in the areas of original residence of these remaining IDP's, the objective of the Government was to close down all IDP sites expeditiously. The Government is pleased that the private sector has come forward to provide employment opportunities for the resettled families. In addition to demining and livelihood, other priority areas for the Government are provision of shelter and housing and infrastructural development. Elaborating on the measures taken by the Government to have a constructive dialogue with the Tamil Diaspora, the Minister said that the Diaspora has an important role to play for the benefit of the people of the North. In the area of reconciliation and confidence building, the Minister explained the work being done by the Lessons Learnt & Reconciliation Commission. The delegation comprised Rt. Hon Paul Murphy, MP (Labour - Leader of Delegation), Mr. Stephen Hammond, MP (Conservative- Deputy Leader of Delegation), Mr. David Amess, MP (Conservative), Mr. Aidan Burley, MP (Conservative), Lord Dholakia OBE DL (Liberal democrat), Mrs. Helen Grant, MP (Conservative) , Rt. Hon. Lord Grocott (Labour), Ms. Fiona O'Donnel, MP (Labour), Lord Sheikh (Conservative), Mr. Andrew Tuggey (Secretary CPA UK Branch) and Miss Hatty Cooper, Secretary to the Delegation.

All eleven of these states were won by President Obama for years ago they include everything from from states are leaning to Obama down of pure toss ups of Ohio Virginia.
And Florida so this is an average of the full of the eleven states.
That's correct if if there's average rose to a point where they're tied.
In all eleven states that probably means Romney's gonna win Ohio Virginia and Florida.
If the president can get into this range -- in right now Q3 four points in his favor it means the race for the White House is still a toss up is -- -- trend within the swing states by the way towards the president or towards his challenger.
There really hasn't been much of a trend in any of the polling for the last eight or nine weeks today overall nationally we show the president up by three points.
That's the best he's been a couple of months but really it's just at the upper end of the range.
He's getting 47%.
Support he hasn't done better than that since March how do you measure enthusiasm.
I think that's going to be very important in getting a ton out of key constituencies.
He's anyway you can measure that.
Yes and there's two different things the people refer to -- enthusiasm one is very important and one is not.
The very important one is how closely people or paying attention -- the campaign people were following -- are more likely turn out and vote.
And on that consistently Republicans have about a ten point edge in terms of people were following the campaign closely that's why he's likely voter polls.
Are much better for the Romney team than polls of registered voters or adults the second way of measuring enthusiasm.
If people do at a variety of approaches but we ask you know is are you excited about the candidate or -- a choice between the lesser of two evils.
Are more excited about their candidate than Republicans.
Will be updating these numbers tomorrow but.
That doesn't translate into extra votes and the reason is because a lot of Republicans may not be thrilled when Mitt Romney is a nominee.
But they sure want to get to the polls and vote against Barack Obama so the president provides -- passion for both sides.
Fascinating stuff please please come on back and tell us how things -- -- As we head towards the big vote Scott Rasmussen thanks very much and it's up.

In Focus: Ara Güler's Anatolia
Arthur M. Sackler Gallery
Ara Güler, the "Eye of Istanbul," is famous for his iconic snapshots of the city in the 1950s and '60s. But with an archive of more than 800,000 photographs, Güler's body of work contains far more than these emblematic images. In December 2013, the Freer and Sackler Galleries will open an exhibition of never-before-shown works by the legendary photographer. Curated by Johns Hopkins University students in partnership with the museums, the installation will examine Güler's definition of himself as a photojournalist through the presentation of his photographs. Featured are photographs of medieval Seljuk and Armenian buildings that Güler took in 1965. The exhibition therefore brings images of important Anatolian monuments to an American audience, highlighting Turkey's cultural history. Beyond appreciating their subject matter, the display asks visitors to think critically about the way images were created. Pushing the boundaries of traditional curatorial practice, this exhibition guides viewers into a critical debate about photography: documentation versus art. Event begins at

The Capitol Steps
Amphitheater of the Ronald Reagan Building
The Capitol Steps began as a group of Senate staffers who set out to satirize the very people and places that employed them. The group was born in December, 1981 when some staffers for Senator Charles Percy were planning entertainment for a Christmas party. Their first idea was to stage a nativity play, but in the whole Congress they couldn't find three wise men or a virgin. So, they decided to dig into the headlines of the day, and they created song parodies & skits which conveyed a special brand of satirical humor We perform every week in Washington, D.C. at the Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center in the Amphitheater with shows every Friday and Saturday year round at 7:30 PM!

The Peacock Room Comes to America: Exhibiting Freer's Bibles
