Vacation Disconnect
Recently, I came back from a week long vacation in Corvallis, Oregon. Although I had brought along my cell phone and laptop, I hardly used either while I was there. Surprisingly enough, I did not miss them at all. Instead, I was out in the beautiful nature of Oregon. Bike rides, a trip to the ocean, trail hiking, disc golfing, and spending time with new friends consumed my days, and I treasured it. Of course, that is usually the benefit of a vacation: to check out from media, technology and life's demands, and become surrounded by a calm, carefree atmosphere. But why does it have to end once the vacation is over?
Once I was back home, I noticed that the TV and cell phone dominated my free time. I almost consider it a habit. Open my laptop… go straight to my email. Turn on my cell phone… go straight to Facebook. Unknowingly, getting back into my "at home" routine included unnecessary time wasted looking at a screen.
After seeing the happiness that came from my trip to Oregon, in contrast to the uselessness that comes from staring at a screen, I recognized my need to set limits.
I feel that many people spend large amounts of time watching the television or on their phone, and not enjoying life. For me, I hope to stop being wasteful, and prioritize my time. Spending time with those that I love, being active, stretching my mind, using my creativity, and getting outdoors are activities that I want to dedicate my time to. Not checking my newsfeed on Facebook, but engaged in a conversation with a friend, in person. Not just watching football on TV, but getting outside and being active by tossing a football around.
Time is valuable, and I know how I want to spend mine.

A field required in every MongoDB document. The _id field must have a unique value. You can think of the _id field as the document's primary key. If you create a new document without an _id field, MongoDB automatically creates the field and assigns a unique BSON ObjectId.
A serialization format used to store documents and make remote procedure calls in MongoDB. "BSON" is a portmanteau of the words "binary" and "JSON". Think of BSON as a binary representation of JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) documents.
A name-value pair in a document. A document has zero or more fields. Fields are analogous to columns in relational databases.
A convention for storing large files in a MongoDB database. All of the official MongoDB drivers support this convention, as does the mongofiles program. See GridFS.
A series of operations in an aggregation process. See Aggregation Concepts.
An array of LinearRing coordinate arrays, as described in the GeoJSON Polygon specification: http://geojson.org/geojson-spec.html#polygon. For Polygons with multiple rings, the first must be the exterior ring and any others must be interior rings or holes.
MongoDB does not permit the exterior ring to self-intersect. Interior rings must be fully contained within the outer loop and cannot intersect or overlap with each other. See Store GeoJSON Objects.
The precursor to the MongoDB replica sets.

Short for HyperText Transfer Protocol, the underlying protocol used by the World Wide Web. HTTP defines how messages are formatted and transmitted, and what actions Web servers and browsers should take in response to various commands. For example, when you enter a URL in your browser, this actually sends an HTTP command to the Web server directing it to fetch and transmit the requested Web page.
The other main standard that controls how the World Wide Web works is HTML, which covers how Web pages are formatted and displayed.
HTTP is called a stateless protocol because each command is executed independently, without any knowledge of the commands that came before it. This is the main reason that it is difficult to implement Web sites that react intelligently to user input. This shortcoming of HTTP is being addressed in a number of new technologies, including ActiveX, Java, JavaScript and cookies.

KAYLA CHAGNON, '10Kayla graduated from Wilson in 2010 and went on to earn her MA in Journalism at Syracuse University.
Wilson prepared me for graduate school in a number of ways. Most importantly, I had close relationship with my professors that have carried on now that I am in graduate school. Many professors tell me that I am one of the few students that visit them during their office hours to ask questions or just to talk about my future. Not only to professors usually appreciate students coming to talk to them; it also helps me in many ways. I would probably not do this if I went to a larger school and did have mentors like my professors. Wilson prepared me academically for journalism school with my background, while some students might have wrote for newspapers or magazines, my hands-on experience at Wilson gave me enough momentum that I never felt confused or really over my head. Wilson was just the place I needed to find myself and become a journalist.

Early Stone Age hafted spear points from South Africa
This week in Science, Jayne Wilkins and colleagues report on part of the lithic assemblage from Kathu Pan, South Africa, which includes 210 points [1]. The paper reports that these are the earliest known hafted points in the world, predating the previous record by more than 200,000 years.
The minireview of the spear literature:
By ~780 ka, hominins were regularly killing large game, based on evidence of repeated in situ processing of complete carcasses of fallow deer at Gesher Benot Ya'kov in Israel (4). At the English site of Boxgrove, a horse scapula with a semicircular perforation is consistent with spear-aided hunting by ~500 ka (5). Wooden spears dating to ~400 ka have been found in association with butchered horses at Schöningen, Germany (6). Hafted spear tips appear to be common in the MSA and Middle Paleolithic (MP) sites of Europe and Africa after ~300 ka (7–20).
This is a very short paper, and it sets out two problems: demonstrating that the points really are 500,000 years old, and demonstrating that they really were used as spear tips. The first is fairly straightforward as a function of the stratigraphy at the site and some ESR/U-series dating of faunal teeth. Possibly a broader issue is the identification of the assemblage as Fauresmith, which has been poorly defined in the literature and sometimes means different things. It is more or less indicative of assemblages based on large cutting tools (such as handaxes), with an increased fraction of flake core production and some MSA-like elements. Andy Herries published a good review of the Fauresmith issue and its chronology last year [2]. He wrote this with respect to Kathu Pan:
Previous dating of the site was based on elephant fossils that were more evolved than those from Olduvai Bed IV [62]. This simply gave the site an age of 417 ka may lend weight to the Fauresmith at Wonderwerk also being in this time range or at least older than 182 ka as suggested by Chazan and Horwitz [147] unless it occurred for over 200 ka in the region and was being produced contemporarily with the MSA.
Fauresmith at some other sites in southern Africa, including Wonderwerk Cave, is apparently younger, less than 300,000 years ago. The entire range is coincident in time with the Early-Middle Stone Age transition in the Kapthurin Formation sites in Kenya, which makes these "transitional" assemblages really representative of a long-term pattern of variability and change. The marker of MSA industries as opposed to Early Stone Age is the MSA's reliance upon prepared core reduction techniques. Yet, prepared core techniques (like the Levallois technique) appear much, much earlier. One marker of the MSA, as reviewed by Herries [2] (citing McBrearty and others) is the appearance of projectile point technology:
Mcbrearty [22] also suggests that the fundamental change from the ESA to the MSA is the end of LCTs and a shift to projectile point technology. Of course, it should be noted that Acheulian bearing hominins in Europe were utilising an entirely wooden projectile technology for hunting as shown by the occurrence of the Schöningen spears at either ~400 (MIS 11 [157]) or ~310 ka (MIS 9d-e; [168]) but were seemingly still disarticulating their kill with LCTs. Whether a similar wooden projectile technology was being used by hominins in Africa is almost impossible to tell given the almost complete lack of preservation of such organic remains in most MSA sites. The exceptions are two wooden tools from Floor 1 at Kalambo Falls in Zambia [30, 56] and one from Florisbad in South Africa [13]. Other sites where large pieces of wood have been recovered include the Acheulian sites of Amanzi Springs [73] and Gesher Benot Ya'aqov [169]. Despite the discovery of significant amounts of wood from these deposits, no tools have been noted. The Kalambo falls tools are reminiscent in some ways of the European "spears" and are associated with large well-formed cleavers from the Acheulian bearing Floor 2, below the Sangoan. Given their context these wood tools might be older than those from Europe and might point to a wooden projectile point technology in the late Acheulian, complimenting the earlier LCT technology. At most sites, the only clue would be in finding injury patterns on faunal remains indicative of such activities. In a similar vein, the co-occurrence of LCTs and projectile point technology in the Sangoan and Fauresmith may reflect similar activity patterns, or as McBrearty [22] suggests that the mix of technologies may, in fact, represent different hominins using different technologies at the same time in the same regions of Africa.
This brings us to the current paper, which pushes the appearance of projectile points back well before the clear appearance of the MSA. So is the evidence solid?
Triangular stone flakes may look on the surface like spear points, but that doesn't necessarily mean they were used that way. Triangular flakes are useful cutting tools, and actually preferred as cutting tools in some archaeological contexts.
I think the authors did a nice job of finding multiple ways to test the use of these points as spear tips. They examined edge wear to show that on these artifacts it is differentially concentrated near the tip. They shot a bunch of experimentally-produced tips into springbok carcasses, showing the pattern of wear that comes from use on a hafted spear, and this pattern matches the archaeological points. Furthermore, they show that experimental use of the points as cutting tools yields a different wear pattern, as does postdepositional damage to the artifacts. They find that some of the points are modified on the base, suggesting hafting, but do not report any evidence of glue or base wear that would have come from the wooden spear. A clever part of their analysis concerns the symmetry of the points. They expected that as a cutting tools is blunted and resharpened, the shape of the overall tool will become skewed, so smaller points should be less symmetrical. The archaeological points show the opposite pattern, with smaller points just as symmetrical as the large ones. The sizes of the points fall within the range of ethnographic and MSA spear points, not smaller projectiles such as arrows or atlatl darts.
So all in all, these look like good spear tips. This seems like yet another case where a more intensive investigation of the African record has shown that supposedly "advanced" toolmaking techniques were mastered by Middle Pleistocene humans. With some of the other techniques -- such as blade production -- people seem to show an effervescent pattern. A handful of sites show an early occurrence of the technique but no clear tradition carrying the early innovation into later time periods. Maybe hafting is another such case, a relatively complex innovation that was repeatedly reinvented, with people repeatedly falling back to the simpler option (in this case, sharpened wood spears without points).
The archaeological record may be giving us a signal of the importance of communication and knowledge accumulation relative to innovation in our prehistory. But to be clear about this will require a fuller record, with fewer blank spots.

Hi everyone and welcome to today's post. This shot was made on a winter trip to Death Valley with my shooting pals Alec Johnson and Travis Bechtel. The trip was singularly marked by some of the most amazing weather I have ever experienced on a trip. Amazing clouds, light, and color greeted our eager eyes every morning and evening. As a matter of practice for this trip we opted to focus our shooting time for the week on just a few areas. For most photographers Death Valley can impart upon you the "kid in the candy store" syndrome. The desire to hit every spot or slam on the brakes to scout all the interesting landforms is certainly understandable. But in my experience it leads to a kind shooting madness without focus and direction. The best way to experience big places is to reduce the macro scale of the landscape to the micro. Micro in this case, at least for the way I think, is a search for intimacy within the grandness. It takes some discipline but the end results are better. Except for a side trip to the Alabama Hills we concentrated our shooting to Badwater Basin, Zabriskie Point, and the Salt Creek Flats. We revisited each of these places more than once exploring morning and evening light. Make no mistake these landscapes are grand and vast, macro in every sense of the word, spreading for mile after mile as far as the eye can see. We were able to reduce the macro to the micro because we stopped and simply spent time there. We were not there to "get THE shot", rush back to the car, and move on to something else. If you do this you will open up to the landscape and it will open up to you.
I saw these crusty upheavals several days before and became fascinated with their architecture. Why here? What forces of time and temperature converged to lift them above the white salt flats. Like small islands they seemed to float on a white tide, separate but yet anchored by their own roots into the soil. On this incredible evening I found myself back at the formations and a composition that had yet eluded me came to fruition. Stretching overhead, tendrils of sunlit fire draped the sky in a curtain of red, orange, and magenta. The Panamint Mountains were shrouded in the cool blue tones of twilight, their size dwarfed by the immense cloud formation moving overhead. The white salt glowed in the dying light. All of this became the perfect backdrop for the "crusty islands". Here I could reveal something intimate about the landscape and layer it into a story about the place. Micro in this case meets macro.
Technical Details: This image is a composite of three separate exposures. Each exposure was processed in Adobe Lightroom 4.0 and then exported to Adobe Photoshop where the exposures were hand blended into a starting file. From there it followed a workflow that included Smart Sharpening, Luminosity Curve Adjustments, Selective Color Layers, and Dodging and Burning.
Thanks for stopping by today.

Philanthropy Spotlight: Tracy Norton — Bike MS 2012
When she's not finding new ways to build MediaWhiz's client base, Tracy Norton, manager of business development, is helping others in need. She is riding in the MS 100 bike race this fall to benefit the MS Society of New York and to help find a cure and raise money to treat those living with Multiple Sclerosis.
We asked Tracy for her thoughts on what the ride will mean to her and those suffering from MS and MS-like symptoms.
"I ride with Team Nan-Am, which stands for Nancy (who passed away this year from MS) and Amy (who is living with the disease)—two people who are close to me and other riders on our team.
"We were one of the top fundraising teams last year and hope to be again this year.
"Last year, I had an accident mid-route and was unable to complete the 100 miles, so this year it's personal in more ways than one."

Quote of the day
Tony Blair on Britain leaving the EU.
By New Statesman Published 09 August 2012 6:15I am deeply worried that Britain could decide by referendum to leave the whole process.
Tony Blair warns that the UK's membership of the EU is at risk.
5 comments
As in the case of the last referendum in the 1970s, when politicians like Heath lied their teeth off to the British people, I'm proud that I voted to get out of the then EEC, which all the politicians knew would turn into a United Stateas of Europe AAMVN?
That referendum was in another century, that contained two world wars and massive voting blocs from the various parties, who sometimes knew their leaders were lying through their teeth but still blindly voted as they wanted. David Cameron and before him Brown and Blair now look astonished when people turn on them, that wasn't what their party elders told it would be like, how dare the great unwashed not believe us!
We live in a very different world now, lets get that referendum going!
I think the EU is doomed in it's present form.
Somebody will leave soon - Greece or perhaps Spain. Then when they don't suffer a complete disaster others will follow. I think the EU will eventually turn back into a looser group of countries at the centre of Europe - Germany, France and a few others as full members and a second tier of members a bit like Norway - paying in and getting out but not blindly subject to the rules.
When I lived in France there was a take some leave some attitude to EU regulations, so that it was easy to work in France and pay all the taxes and charges but nearly impossible to be fully legal and be able to access the benefits. Cunning that. Meanwhile London became the second largest French city on the planet!
Then we have the hideous European Arrest Warrant - so shamelessly abused by Sweden in the Assange case. We are asked to assume that Poland, Greece, Spain etc all have justice systems on a par with Britain? What happens if Turkey joins?
I dunno. I used to like the idea of Europe but in the end I'm not so sure.
A referendum would be a disaster though because the public would vote on purely xenophobic grounds.
A full debate and free vote in the house of commons would be a better option.
I am sorry but it would be impossible to have any faith in a vote taken in the House of Commons.
Might I humbly suggest you watch the BBC Parliament channel and despair at the quality of debate and the absence of M.P.s
I don't know a single person, friend, family or acquaintance in three constituencies who has any confidence in their Member of Parliament; they are mostly perceived as liars and thieves.
Since the 'Expenses' scandal they have done nothing to change that perception.
The EU has become too large and unwieldy to accommodate the idiosyncrasies of countries like Britain and we no longer deserve to be a member. David Cameron has made this perfectly clear and 'little islanders' like him will always behave like 'little islanders'. Recent events have shown that Germany is the most powerful country in the EU so it is not united at all. Perhaps it should just go back to being a union of six countries and then the Euro might be saved.
Would he rather the decision was taken by a small, irresponsible body (such as the government)?

14 new beds are expected to be added to Brook Lane Health Services near Smithsburg. In comments to the Hagerstown Herald-Mail, Brook Lane CEO Lynn Rushing said the new beds will make up a section for children. The facility currently has 43 beds: 20 for adults, 17 for adolescents 11 and older, and six for children.
The total cost of the upgrade is $2.5-million. The Maryland General Assembly put in $1.1-million in the state's fiscal year 2013 capital budget toward the project.
Rushing says Brook Lane will start a fund raising campaign to come up with the rest of the money, and it may have borrow some cash too.
He tells the Herald-Mail that design work will probably start next month, with permits being sought in the summer.
Brook Lane is the state's only psychiatric facility for children and adolescents west of Baltimore.

South Bay Remembers Sandy Hook Massacre; Gun Buyback Saturday
Dec 13, 2013 by Jennifer Wadsworth Politics, Culture Comments (1)
Since the Sandy Hook massacre last year, at least 194 children in the US have died of gunshot wounds. (Photo by M. Glasgow, via Flickr)
Saturday marks a year to the day since a gunman killed 26 students and teachers at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn. To remember the lives lost, a group of community leaders and activists will hold a vigil this weekend in Sunnyvale, a city that grappled with a massacre of its own in 1988.
FPPC Expands Xavier Campos Investigation
Dec 12, 2013 by Josh Koehn Politics Comments (4)
Xavier Campos filed fictitious business names for his 2010 City Council campaign and a 2004 school board campaign.
The Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) confirmed Thursday that it has expanded its investigation into San Jose Councilman Xavier Campos' 2010 campaign. Earlier this week, San Jose Inside reported that Campos and incarcerated former county Supervisor George Shirakawa Jr. created fictitious business filings with the county Recorder's office under identical names as their campaigns. The unconventional finance practice could have allowed the two men to funnel campaign contributions into secret bank accounts.
Just Legalize, Regulate Marijuana Already
Dec 12, 2013 by Rich Robinson Politics, Business, Culture Comments (0)
San Jose's City Council decided Tuesday to increase regulation on medical marijuana collectives.
It's déjà vu all over again, with apologies to Yogi Berra. The San Jose City Council once again passed an ordinance that could effectively put all medical marijuana collectives out of business. A more progressive approach would be to enforce existing law and pass an ordinance completely legalizing marijuana for general use.
County Worker Chastised for Criticizing Obamacare, Says Right-Wing Legal Group
Dec 11, 2013 by Jennifer Wadsworth Politics, Culture Comments (0)
A right-wing legal nonprofit says the county discriminated against an employee for expressing her opinion.
A Santa Clara County employee took a browbeating for criticizing Obamacare and told to take her complaints outside—literally off public property. That's according to Norina Mooney's attorneys at the Pacific Justice Institute (PJI), a conservative legal defense group that defends "religious, parental and other constitutional rights."
Mayor Reed Sits out Mayor's Race for Now
Dec 11, 2013 by The Fly Politics, The Fly Comments (5)
San Jose Mayor Chuck Reed is not expected to endorse a candidate to succeed him until after the primary.
There are enough candidates for mayor of San Jose to field a football team with a few water boys, but no one entrant should expect the blessing of Mayor Chuck Reed just yet. With a year left on his final term, the mayor's five pension reform supporters on the City Council—a.k.a. The B Team—are all vying to drag their files over to the 18th floor's corner office, and he needs their support to gets things done.
San Jose's Next Mayor Can Lead on Education
Dec 11, 2013 by Joseph DiSalvo Politics, Culture, Media Comments (5)
San Antonio's Mayor Julian Castro led a bold initiative last year to improve preschool access in his city. (Photo courtesy of UCN)
There is a dangerous shortsightedness about constricting the role of mayor in San Jose and the campaign to only things that he/she can influence. Doing so makes San Jose seem small minded and insignificant. Are we not the Silicon Valley, the economic engine for the state, nation and world? Are we not the 10th most populous city in America? We must think bigger or we will lose out.
Xavier Campos, Shirakawa Filed Fictitious Business Accounts with Campaigns
Dec 11, 2013 by Josh Koehn Politics Comments (4)
George Shirakawa Jr. and Xavier Campos created fictitious businesses names that would have allowed them to escape detection of campaign finances.
The Santa Clara County District Attorney's office seized documents in a Thanksgiving eve raid that implicate Xavier Campos' campaign in funding the red-baiting political mailers that helped him win a seat on the San Jose City Council. Now, records obtained this week by Metro/San Jose Inside suggest that the District 5 councilmember engaged in a highly unconventional campaign finance practice—one used by the incarcerated former county supervisor—that would have allowed him to establish phony campaign bank accounts that could have gone undetected by agencies monitoring election spending.
Plan to Fix Broken Streetlights Goes before Rules Committee
Dec 10, 2013 by Jennifer Wadsworth Politics, Business Comments (3)
Leasing streetlights to cell phone providers could expand 4G service and get some of the city's broken lights fixed, according to two councilmembers.
Copper wire theft and other problems leave hundreds of streetlights dark, creating a public safety problem in several neighborhoods. But what if the city leases these poles to telecom companies as cell stations to expand their 4G network? Councilmembers Rose Herrera and Sam Liccardo proposed the idea, saying the lights get fixed, courtesy of Philips, and San Jose receives better cell phone service while residents aren't left in the dark.
Rocketship Asks City for Help Securing a $35 Million Loan
Dec 9, 2013 by Jennifer Wadsworth Politics, Culture Comments (10)
Rocketship schools have been cropping up throughout Santa Clara County, where the company eventually plans to operate upward of 20 campuses.
A private nonprofit charter school chain wants the city to act as a conduit financer for a $35 million loan to build another campus and make improvements at a couple others. Rocketship schools, owned by San Jose-based Launchpad Development Company, will ask the City Council to approve the bond issuance when it meets Tuesday. The council also considers plans to regulate pot clubs, accept an insurance settlement for a burnt-down historic home and OK a contract with the city's police union.
San Jose Considers Stricter Pot Club Ordinance, Outright Ban
Dec 8, 2013 by Jennifer Wadsworth Politics, Business, Culture Comments (7)
The city wants to take another crack at regulating the medical marijuana industry. (Photo by it was 3 a.m., via Flickr)
Leveraging anecdotal evidence of increased crime and a poll conducted by teenage prohibitionists, the city aims to tighten restrictions on local pot clubs. Under new rules—if they garner a majority vote Tuesday from the City Council—dispensaries would operate no closer than 1,000 feet from a school, 500 feet from a substance abuse clinic and 150 feet from a home.

Positive Impact Program: St. Vincent de Paul Home Makeovers
Positive Impact Program projects, designed to give back to our annual meeting host city and its citizens in need, are great examples of service—and leadership—in action. Along with insights to take back to your district, ASBO's AM&E offers another kind of takeaway: the opportunity to make a difference.
Join us on Monday, October 15 from 1:30 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. in Phoenix, Arizona as we partner with St. Vincent de Paul to provide home makeovers for two Phoenix families in need--the Hernandez and Manriquez families. In the space of a few hours, we'll transform their barren houses into a warm, welcoming homes. At the end of the day, we'll welcome them back for big reveals. Join us for an afternoon of painting, decorating, organizing, and fellowship as we work to leave a positive footprint in our host city.
Visit www.facebook.com/stvincentdepaulphx for photos of St. Vincent de Paul home makeovers, and plan to participate.
Meet the Hernandez and Manriquez families.
Donate much needed project supplies and decorative items for our home makeovers by purchasing an item from the Hernandez or Manriquez family wish lists. No contribution is too small! **If making a purchase on Walmart.com, please select in-store pickup for Store #2515 Phoenix Walmart Supercenter, so ASBO staff and local volunteers can pick up donations in time for project day.
If you do not see a specific item you'd like to donate,
consider making a monetary donation via a gift card so our local
volunteers can shop for remaining project needs. You can also
pledge to donate cash by emailing Lisa Sparrow. We'll be
collecting funds to purchase second-hand furniture, mattresses, ceiling
fans, paint, and more. Any and all contributions are welcome.
There is no fee to participate, but space is limited; be sure to register early. Please do not register for this event if you are not sure you will be able to attend. Our Phoenix families will be counting on us!

Just took my first tour through the new Download-shop. Great work indeed. I can't say how happy I am to finally be able to get my hands on the old Infernal Machine-tracks. I felt like Homer Simpson in Chocolate Land (happy). :D
However, I still wish I could have found some more of Simon Posfords earlier music. Is there any chance of you putting up Rites of Ra and Temple of Moon by Anubis (Posford and Deckker) in the future? I absolute love these tracks, but finding them have proved nigh impossible. I know they are from two now extinct labels, but it would really be great if you would put these up for purchasing.
a happy and loyal Twisted customer

Next book is Slow Boats to China by Gavin Young, published in 1981 so it's not new.

I just finished re-reading The Last Grain Race. A must read for it's pretty much the end of commercial sail.
And I just started The Story of Ocean Falls Rain People. which has started off great with a full account written by Captain Vancouver of their first arrival to the secluded area now called Ocean Falls inside on the BC coast. North of Vancouver Island. Alex Mackenzie just missed him. Which is a good question to go with the Lewis and Clark thread.

Now I am reading "Rubicon" by Steven Saylor. He writes detective stories set in Rome at the time Julius Caesar. They are told in the first person by Gordanus the Finder, a self employed detective. The author writes well and know his Roman history.
I am also reading the histories by Will and Ariel Durant. I am on the last volume, the eleventh, for the second time. (Brag, Brag)
I thought they were good too, didn't you watch the movies recently (at least the first two)?
Kat and I watched them on Friday and Saturday night. Pretty good. They're sure to be remade for the American audience given the success of the books. Wonder how that will work out.
Simpler is better, except when complicated looks really cool.
I haven't watched them yet, but will soon. I've been exhausted lately and don't know if I could handle 2 hours of sub-titles without being asleep. I gather that they are being remade for English-speaking audiences right now. Rooney Mara is to play Salander and Daniel Craig will be playing Blomkvist - I'm definitely looking forward to that.

I usually have 2 books on the go, a novel (often sci-fi) and a large format non-fiction for browsing in briefly at breakfast or if there's a few minutes spare before dinner.
The last one of these browsers I had was a biography of Mark Rothko with plenty of large full colour plates, many of which I hadn't seen before. My current large format book is Gary Dierking's Building Outrigger Sailing Canoes, I know I haven't got the space for one, but I can't help being drawn to traditional proas.
I don't have a novel on the go at the moment, but I'm reading Hurricane: Victor of the Battle of Britain by Leo McKinstry. I finished the section on the Battle of Britain last night, so I'm looking forward to the bits about the North Africa Campaign, about which I know very little.
Oh yeah, good point. I'm reading The River Why to Oystagirl.
I remember that one... haven't seen a copy in years, but it was good.
What are you doing about it?
Just finished "Colossus-Bletchley Park's Greatest Secret".Currently reading Samuel Pepys diary for 1665 having read the preceding volumes over previous winters.Actually found it quite amusing to read of his exasperation with the battle to house train a puppy and then to see Ozzy Osborne having much the same conversation with his wife during a television programme in the twenty-first century.
yeah I could see Ms Osborne having a real battle attempting to house train her hubby
Hey Dutchy do you still have your big colection of archie comix?
Currently reading the Dalai Lama's Little Book of Wisdom - The Essential Teachings, also reading Iain Oughtred A Life in Wooden Boats and The Sailmaker's Apprentice. For fiction I am on what is likely to a 25th-ish reread of The Lord of the Rings, it use to be a yearly tradition but I have fallen behind since the movies were release... shame on me. Soon to be reading The Dobsonian Telescope - A Practical Manual for Building Large Aperture Telescopes. For me books are like peanuts, reading one at a time one is never enough.

SWBTS - 2068 full time students
NOBTS - 1517 full-time students
SBTS - 874 full-time students
MWBTS - 468 full time students
No listings for Southeastern or Golden Gate
Compare the above numbers to the 2008-2009 stats reported by the seminaries and discussed by Peter Lumpkin last year

Concerning enrollments, two places where data are available:
ATS (see http://www.ats.edu/Pages/default.aspx , then see Member Schools), which reports the most current year, and
IPEDS (see http://nces.ed.gov/ipeds/datacenter/), which reports several years. The IPEDS Data Center is not too difficult to manipulate. Give it ten minutes and bingo, all the data you need from enrollment to faculty salary.
FTE is calculated many ways, depending on the precision and interest of the researcher, but a very common measurement is (but not the most precise, which would count student hours [and still others would also include financial information!], instead, but, nonetheless it is usually very close):
(Fulltime students) + 1/3(Part-time students). Whereas this particular formula is used in undergraduate education, seminary students typically take 12-15 hours, like undergraduate students.
Still, to know exactly what is being reported, one needs to know the parameters of the agency making the data public. The most credible agencies have guidelines that schools must adapt to before submitting their data.

Just 2 that can be documented!!!!!

I think we need to consider another factor---with all Seminaries run as a "little Liberty University," many new schools offer a less constricted version of "graduate education" with a far more reputable and honored tradition. Most of the SBC schools have run afowl of the approval of ATS with "administrative activities."
Many SBC church members are now using online stuff out of their personal interest in a more educated faith. However, I would hardly call a "far right-wing" education a fair or wise one. These days, too many non-thinking people are wanting some kind of accolade to their non-thinking faith that might prove them superior to other church members.
One thing is clear to me: SBC Seminaries are a mess and hardly give a balanced view of Christianity anymore.
Are they scared of any serious theological questions without simple answers?????
Gene Scarborough wrote:Both institutions went "on probation" during that period. That clearly meant their graduates "could" graduate from a non-accredited instution.
That, by itself, gave clear possibilities that a graduate would be unable to go to an institution for higher degrees without having proper credentials approved by the ATS.
The ATS is like the IRS looking at a church violating the separation of church and state for its tax-exempt status = it is never done unless the institution / church is "way over the edge" of proper conduct. By hook and crook the institutions managed to keep their accredidation----BUT they were close to losing it!
Serious business and not to be taken lightly. Have I proved my case???

Serious business and not to be taken lightly. Have I proved my case???
"Probation" by ATS does not affect the accreditation or degrees granted by the institution until a full investigation is conducted and the actual problems are detected. Even then, a period of time is granted for the specific issues to be resolved and the school is re-inspected before the accreditation is pulled. ATS tends to favor the more liberal theological institutions, and so when there is a complaint against a conservative school, they jump in quickly with both feet. My understanding is that they've sent teams to the SBC schools when the moderates whined about them, but they've always been cleared without any conditions being set.
There was no "hook and crook" involved. ATS sent their team to the school, conducted their investigation and didn't find anything to warrant the probational status, or to pull the accreditation.
As to the SBC schools being run like "little Liberty Universities," how would you go about substantiating that claim? Liberty University is a fully accredited, Christian liberal arts university with 15,000 undergraduate students and a lot of degree programs that are highly ranked by the same criteria used to evaluate every other university in America.
If Blake's figures are from ATS, then they only reflect the graduate level students, not the undergrads or the diploma programs. The diploma programs are a hallmark of the SBC schools, opening the door of seminaries to students past 30 years of age who feel called to the ministry but were not able to finish an undergraduate degree. That's a major difference between a seminary, which trains missionaries, pastors and others for professional ministry, and the academic ivory towers of academia, which are not necessarily involved in that.
Gene Scarborough wrote:In NO WAY has my "little LIberty University" description been disproven!
If you go to SEBTS and its listing of Faculty and their degrees, you will find the vast majority coming from Liberty / Criswell / other well-know Institutions of ultra-conservative higher learning.
Where, during my day and up to the Patterson Administration, the faculty of SEBTS was balanced with Professors coming from all over and all stripes. Now it is a "little Liberty" in its teachings and its credentials for faculty.
Ed: Gene where did you find a list of SE Faculty with where they attended college and Seminary. The list i found on the schools web site only listed their names and what they teach.
G: I have a clear example with a current Professor teaching his students that even the use of contraciptives and any form of birth control = Abortion! I heard it directly from relatives of one of the young starving students who were daring mother nature to give them more children than they could now afford. They sucked up what the Professor said and followed his position to a "T."
Ed: Gene I hardly consider a second or third hand verbal account a "clear example".
G: That is a "little Liberty" in my view---Indoctrination over Education! I can't believe any thinking person of a graduate intelligence would suck up to it, but these did!!!
Add to this the number of student pastors who go to small churches who used to trust SEBTS. They go in with a new Constitution and By-laws giving the Pastor total control of the church. Since the change at SEBTS there has been more local church turmoil than I can describe. Now, many of the same churches who got burned go to Duke / Richmond / Campbell for their pastors who are not in the business of creating a "King Pastor." Jerry was a King, as well as most mega church Pastors now running the SBC. In the past SEBTS, taught us to be Servant Pastors trying to meet the needs of whatever church we served. The current picture of local church pastoral work is the church serves the Pastor who tells them what to do.
I rest my case with the SEBTS story I know very personally!!!
Ed: And SEBTS is one of Six SBC Seminaries. I would still like to see that list. I did find the educational back grounds for current Mid Western Proffs. There is one with an undergrad degree from Liberty, a M.Div. From Southwestern and a PH.D. from Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion. In Fact they have two with Ph.D's from HUC-JIR. From personal experience I can assure you that is no fundamentalist leaning institution. It is where Trudy got her second masters. I did not see any from Criswell at any level. By far the majority of degrees held by Mid Western faculty are from Southwestern but also Yale, Princeton, Cambridge and Oxford among others are represented.

For a band that dreamed of playing this hallowed hall while they paid their dues back in the '70s playing five sets for fifty bucks just over the hill on the Sunset Strip, the scene must have been surreal.[0] Comments

The USAF is exploring options in its effort to reduce the amount of fuel used across its 4,693 aircraft fleet. With the recent price increase in oil, the Air Force is seeing a $1 billion increase in fuel cost for 2012. The Air Force is the largest energy user in the federal government, making 900 air mobility flights globally daily, including combat sorties.
One of the methods being used is repowering aircraft with new engines. This has been done with the KC-135 aerial refueling fleet, and is currently underway on the C-5M Super Galaxy airlifter, reducing not only fuel burn but also maintenance cost. The changes that have taken place are already having an effect, according to a report in Stars and Stripes. The USAF hauls 27% more cargo than it did five years ago, but fuel consumption has decreased 4% since 2006. The per-mile cost to haul a ton of cargo has decreased 21% in that time. Changing aircraft routing has also had an effect on the service's fuel bill. By optimizing flight plans through friendly countries' air space via diplomatic methods, the Air Force saved $2.4 million in 2011.
Reducing aircraft cruise speeds has also played a part; C-17 crews slowed down 16mph to 568mph and choose routes and altitudes to maximize fuel conservation. C-130 crews are reducing engine ground run time by cutting out non-essential procedures that take up time on the runway. The use of onboard auxiliary power units to run onboard systems instead of relying on electric power supplied by engines is saving a considerable amount of fuel as well. (USAF Photo)

LATHAM - "My wife and a platoon of girlfriends are going gown shopping tonight," laughed Command Sgt. Major Frank Wicks, while speaking to reporters Thursday afternoon.
Describing how their wives and girlfriend are shopping this week for fancy gowns, Wicks and two fellow soldiers shared their excitement about attending an inaugural ball on Monday night with the President and First Lady.
They know it's a rare honor to represent the New York Army National Guard.
"It's going to be surreal. The whole focus for the nation for that day and evening is going to be on Washington DC and the inauguration of the President. To be in that at that precise time is going to be exciting," said Capt. Shawn Tabankin.
"We gather because we have chosen hope over fear," said President Barack Obama at his first swearing-in four years ago.
After President Obama is sworn in for his second term with great ceremony and a parade, he'll attend the Commander-in-Chief's Inaugural ball for members of the military and their guests.
The local soldiers were chosen because of their achievements and deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan.
Wicks, of West Sand Lake, is the senior enlisted soldier in the New York Army National Guard. Tabankin of Rexford, received a purple heart after a roadside bomb exploded under his vehicle in Iraq.
Staff Sgt. David Martinsen, of Troy, won the Guard's non-commissioned Officer of the Year award for 2012.
"He says,' would you like to have this opportunity to go?' And I said, 'of course I would! So it's definitely a great opportunity and I'm thankful to have the opportunity to go down there," Martinsen said.
"I mean the Commander in Chief is the highest ranking member of the military so any member of the military is just honored to have an interaction with the Commander in Chief," said Wicks.
Troops currently deployed in Afghanistan will be able to watch the festivities at the ball via live video.
