Published in U.S.
CHESAPEAKE, VA. (Catholic Online) - He was raised in a Christian home in Britain toward the end of the fourth century. This was an age much like our own, gripped by a "culture of death" and filled with a spirit of lawlessness. Tragedy struck Patrick at sixteen years old when he was kidnapped by Irish Pirates and taken to the Emerald Isle.
This was the first experience he would have of the land that he would later come to love and for which he would give himself away in tireless missionary service. Upon arrival in this plush, green, breathtaking and beautiful land, he was sold as property to a petty chieftain who put him to work with his herds of swine.

Patrick could have become embittered. In fact, the reaction would have been understandable. Instead, he became holy. When this young man recalled these traumatic events in his marvelous work "The Confession", he perceived the tragedy not as a victim but rather as a penitent:
"I was then about sixteen years of age. I knew not the true God; and I went into captivity to Ireland with many thousands of persons, according to our deserts, because we departed away from God, and kept not His commandments, and were not obedient to our priests, who used to admonish us for our salvation"
While he was a slave, Patrick recalled his Christian upbringing and turned back to that true God of whom he wrote so eloquently. He became a pilgrim, turning his captivity into a time of spiritual growth. He learned to walk the way of love. He wrote of that time:
"Now, after I came to Ireland, tending flocks was my daily occupation; and constantly I use to pray in the daytime. Love of God and the fear of Him increased more and more, and faith grew, and the spirit was moved, so that in one day I would say as many as a hundred prayers, and at night nearly as many, so that I use to stay even in the woods and on the mountain to this end. And before daybreak I use to be roused to prayer, in snow, in frost, in rain. And I felt no hurt, nor was there any sluggishness in me- as I now see because the spirit was then fervent within me"
After six years of unjust captivity, during which this pilgrim had become a mystic, Patrick escaped with the help of some friendly traders. He pledged that he would never return to Ireland. However, the God whom Patrick had fallen in love with had other plans for his life. In the middle of the night the Lord gave Patrick a vision which he recorded for posterity.
Because he responded to the invitation contained in that vision, this wonderful man was used by the Living and true God to literally change the history of not only Ireland but the rest of the world:
"And there verily I saw in the night visions, a man whose name was Victorius coming as it were from Ireland with countless letters. And he gave me one of them, and I read the beginning of the letter, which was entitled "The Voice of the Irish"; and while I was reading aloud the beginning of the letter, I thought that at that very moment I heard the voice of those who lived beside the wood of Folcut, which is nigh unto the Western Sea. And thus they cried, as with one mouth: "We beseech thee , O holy youth, to come and walk once more among us." And I was exceedingly broken in heart, and would read no further. And so I awoke. Thanks be to God, that after very many years the Lord granted to them according to their cry"
Through much perseverance, Patrick finally returned to Ireland, now an ordained servant of the Church of that true God. His "Confession" tells of his experience of being used to transform that beautiful land into a seedbed of Christianity through his evangelization and missionary work. The Pilgrim Patrick is a model for our age and for the new evangelization that we so desperately need. We live in a new missionary age. Patrick�s progression of faith must become our own.
Patrick chose to reject "victim-hood" and self-centeredness. Instead, he embraced the way of the Cross, carrying on the redemptive mission of Jesus. He fell in love with the Lord by developing a profound and transforming interior life, a personal relationship with God. He did this through deep, constant and abiding prayer. In this way of life, the Christian way, he learned to discern the voice of the Lord in his daily life, developed the eyes of faith and responded with perseverance to the call to become a missionary. Each of us is invited to do the same.
On this day, when the entire world pauses to remember Patrick�s life and his legacy, to rightly celebrate a full and meaningful life- and to honor to a beautiful country and people who have sent missionaries to the rest of the world to carry Patrick�s work forward through the ages, let us truly honor his memory by choosing to walk in His way. Like Patrick, let us follow Jesus Christ. Let us make Patrick�s wonderful prayer, which reflects his very real life, our own. Let us march into the Third Christian Millennium called, as was this wonderful saint and hero, to proclaim, demonstrate and live the Gospel:
"Christ beside me, Christ before me, Christ behind me King of my heart; Christ within me, Christ below me, Christ above me never to part. Christ on my right hand, Christ on my left hand, Christ all around me shield in strife; Christ in my sleeping, Christ in my sitting, Christ in my rising light of my life. Christ beside me, Christ before me, Christ behind me King of my heart; Christ within me, Christ below me, Christ above me never to part."

Holiday Inn Gloucester: A distinctly ordinary experience
Advantages: quite easy to find from the motorway
Disadvantages: not inspiring and a little mean
...We decided our road trip to the south west could not be achieved in one swallow and so we booked an evening at Gloucester's Holiday Inn. Our main reason for choosing the hotel was the ease of travel from the motorway. Four and a half hours on the road does make me crave convenience. We have stayed at a couple of Holiday Inns in the past and found them comfortable and roomy. While Gloucester...

"My daughter's birthday invitation is so cute and elegant at the same time! It's not overbearing. Moms have already commented on the Princess invitation and how nice it is and I already recommended the Tiny Prints company."
"I believe these were baby shower invites, but I used them for a 4th birthday party invite for my daughter and they turned out so cute! My daughter loved them and we got lots of compliments from our guests. The paper quality was great, as usual from Tiny Prints. We customized with a picture of my daughter on the back and a little poem about daughters."
"I ordered these "peace, love & cupcakes" invites for my daughter's 7th birthday party. She loved them, and they fit perfectly with what she had in mind. Friends have even commented on how cute they are. I have used Tiny Prints in the past, and will continue to use them."
"We are doing an owl theme, with the colors pink and green, for my daughter's birthday...So this invite was perfect! The personalization choices were key in choosing this invite as well. I used white font for the headline and my daughter's name. Paper and print quality were excellent. I ordered the rectangle/standard envelopes (free)that would fit square cards to save on postage. The invites we're shipped on time and arrived a few days earlier than scheduled. Very happy with this purchase!"
"These are adorable and perfect for my daughter's third birthday in a few weeks. The paper is very good quality; I paid extra for the pearl shimmer paper and am so glad I did- they are beautiful! My little girl was so excited to see them and can't wait to send them to her friends. Customer service was great; I received my cards within a few days. Definitely recommend these for any little one's fancy tea party!"

The irritation at the fact that you had the end free just a minute ago and another fruitless attempt when you find the end but only manage to pull half of the tape off and do one of those tapered rips.

Psalm 118:24~
This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it. (KJV)
We had such a lovely day yesterday! It is another "Birthday Weekend" for our family. Our ds is turning 4 and we are celebrating our 1 yo ds' birthday as he will turn 2 next weekend when we will be on a plane bound for Ethiopia!~ :o)
So yesterday we headed to the zoo! Four year old Birthday Boy is crazy for giraffes. He even has an imaginary pet giraffe (it's too cute). He was so very excited to see the giraffes. We were so surpirsed when we got to the giraffes that they were hanging out right next to the overlook. Usually they are far off. As we approached the railing one of the giraffes bent over and licked the Birthday Boy's hand!!! It was so amazing! He was thrilled and talked all day how the giraffe "kissed" him. Isn't God good to have a giraffe bless my little B'day boy that way?
Other memorable moments were when a school field trip class was passing and the teacher/chaperone grabbed my 6 yo dd and put her in the line fussing at her for getting out of line :o/ I grabbed her back and said (sweetly of course), "Excuse me, but she's mine." So she tunred around and grabbed the B'day Boy "I said he's mine too!" I can tell you we laughed all the day about that. The kids couldn't wait to tell Daddy about it.
We also rode the carousel! It was our Ethiopian boys' first time. Our 1 yo was so excited as we strapped him on his eagle (they aren't horses at our zoo they are all different kinds of animals). Our 3 yo started to cry as I strapped him on his rhino. 11 yo ds was holding onto 1 yo so I talked to 3 yo and he calmed down all while he is squeezing onto my neck frantically. The ride started and 3 yo LOVED it he was laughing and enjoying the ride and then 1 yo lost it. Poor baby! Ds and I switched places and I ended up unstrapping 1 yo and holding him which made him happy :o)
Funniest comment was when 3 yo looks excitedly up ahead and says, "Look Mama there's some cannibals!" Anyone want to guess what animal he saw?
The kids were commenting on how it was the best day we had ever had at the zoo. They concluded that it was because it was the first time we had been to the zoo since our boys had come home and it was much more fun with them :o)

Great pictures!
We went to the zoo also yesterday! And we also rode the carousel, which also has an assortment of animals. My daughter chose a large rabbit, and all day she talked about how she "rode the easter bunny". :)

We don't make it to the zoo often. I didn't know they were showing cannibals too now!! Just kidding, sounds like you guys had a great day.

Another clue that the converter is installed correctly is if it is gapped rearward from the flexplate, as seen here, once the trans bellhousing is bolted to the engine. The flexplate-to-converter bolts should pull the converter forward to meet the flexplate.

GARY Waddock wants answers from James Constable and Tom Newey about their futures by the end of this week.
The pair were the only players out of contract at Oxford United this summer to be offered new deals last week.
They have spent the weekend considering the terms and Waddock wants a resolution in the next few days so both parties know where they stand.
The U's head coach said: "Players will want to consider their options, which is fair enough.
"But I also have to consider what I need to do here for this club.
"If you allow it to drag on through the summer it doesn't help anybody and I would like a quick answer.
"They either want to be a part of it, or they don't, but saying that I want both of the players here."
Along with captain Jake Wright, who had an additional season clause activated by the club, Constable was the highest-profile United player out of contract this summer.
The 29-year-old is the longest-serving member of the squad, has been their top-scorer for the last six seasons and is just two goals away from becoming their all-time top marksman.
Newey was only signed last summer, but was United's first choice left back all season, making 47 starts in all competitions.
Waddock made it clear the ball was in the players' court and felt the deals were fair.
He said: "In the current climate, the salaries they've been offered are good.
"If you look at any football club now you have to be mindful of the figures you are banding about.
"It's up to the players whether they want to be a part of it.
"We've offered them contracts because we want them here, it's as simple as that."

Today, I begin a brief series covering the 10 basic categories of theology and relate them to our walk with the Lord and to our personal, one-another ministry that we call 'counseling.'
Theology Proper: The Doctrine of God
One's view of God shapes his thinking in every area of life. Of course, this is true for every subsection of Theology Proper. However, for the sake of brevity, a few specific areas that often come to the forefront in counseling include God's sovereignty, love, goodness, and the "three omnis."
Counselees who are suffering especially need the biblical understanding of God's sovereignty over every affair of life including when bad things happen to God's people (Psalm 139:16; Romans 8:28-30; Eg. Life of Joseph in Genesis 39-50). Whatever the secondary cause of suffering, we must teach counselees that God is truly in control and, therefore, is the principal cause and is trustworthy. Though He is not responsible for evil, God is sovereign over it—whether it comes through sin, Satan, or the natural consequences of the curse, which God placed upon the created world in the Garden of Eden after the fall.
Coupled with His sovereignty, the goodness of God must be communicated along with His love, mercy, and pity toward sinners, which was ultimately made manifest in Christ on the cross (Romans 5:8). The holiness of God compels us to trust Him (for He cannot lie, or do us wrong) and calls believers to a life of holiness (1 Peter 1:15ff). Whatever sin-related struggle we battle, or suffering-related problem we face, God knows it (omniscience), is with us and will never forsake us (omnipresence), and has infinite power to intercede on our behalf according to His desires (omnipotence)
What does all of this mean? The bottom line is: God is worthy of our trust and obedience.

Gerry Roll helped organize Hazard-Perry County Community Ministries, which - despite its name - has no religious mission. She says people don't understand the problems in southeastern Kentucky: "You can get whatever you need as far as traditional medical care goes. Yet we have the highest levels of chronic disease in the nation. So when I hear people talking about access to health care being a problem, I am livid."

Start-Up Squeel/Grind
Junior Member
Hey everyone, I am new to this forum and the LGT and so far I love both.
Anyhow, I have had my 2005 LGT for 2 weeks now and the weather has finally started to get cold in the PA mornings (about 35-40 degrees F). My car has started and run beautifully thus far cold or hot....
This morning though it gave me a little apprehension on start up. It was 35 degrees out, and when it cranked over it made about a 1-2 second long squeel or grind kind of sound (almost like a fan belt but not really). It only made this sound as it cranked over and once it was running it was fine, and then when i restarted at the gas station once I bought my pumkin spice coffee it started up normally and queitly. This sound was probably nothing at all, but the slight grind in the squeel had me worried a touch and wanted to ask and see if it is nature of the beast when it gets cold (i.e. a fan belt getting cold or slipping), or even if it is sign of something failing (i.e. a battery going bad or even a starter).
Please let me know what any of you think to ease my nerves lol.
Also, on a side note, what oil weight is everyone running...I know the manual says 5w30 but I am an Amsoil fan and they reccommend their 0w30..any thoughts or recommendations???
Thanks a lot for your help and sorry for the long winded post!

My best choices for the new book font and reasons why:
3. (shown as plain set type for now, w/o the special ink effect seen on 7.) is easy to read, calm, neither too feminine nor too masculine, nor too young nor too old. Has a softness, will read well, even at the smaller sizes of the book's text (which can be set in black).
7. (shown w/ the special ink effect in two colors) has the most personality, looks fantastic w/ the effect b/c of the thicks and thins. Is cheerful and lively. Gives great movement.
4. (shown as plain set type for now, w/o the special ink effect seen on 7.) is the softest, clear, clean, simple, still has thicks and thins and flourish but has a more steady baseline and therefore more meditative.
Test of new ink effect for book typography.

At some point in time, most males wonder: "Is my penis normal?" or "Is semen supposed to look like that?" Chances are, the answer is yes! Penises come in a variety of shapes, colors, and sizes that are all normal and healthy.
Most penises are roughly the same color as the rest of the person's skin. That said, many men have penises that are darker, having a brownish or reddish appearance.
If your penis has been a certain color "for as long as you can remember" then it's probably fine. Keep in mind, getting aroused can also cause the penis to look darker for a brief period of time. However, if there is a new change in color accompanied by pain – especially with redness and swelling – you should see your doctor.
Back to top
Most penises are not perfectly smooth. It is common for the veins on a penis to be visible and even pop out a bit, especially when aroused. Many penises also have hair follicles on the shaft, which feel like tiny bumps. As long as the bumps are small and not unusually red or irritated, they are probably benign hair follicles or natural bumps that are just part of your skin.
Some men also have tiny, smooth "pearly" bumps on the head of their penis – these are also normal. However, larger and irritated bumps can signal a sexually transmitted disease (STD) like penile warts, so contact your doctor if you are concerned.
It is possible to get a rash on your penis that is not caused by an STD. Harsh soaps, fragranced laundry detergents, and even too much friction from sex or masturbation can cause skin irritation.
If the irritation does not go away in a few days, you should see a doctor – especially if you are sexually active. You could have an STD or jock itch, a fungal infection resulting from too much moisture. Jock itch is easily treated and often occurs in uncircumcised men.
Back to top
Yes, penis size does vary – as does scrotum size. In the United States, the average erect penis size is 5 to 7 inches long, with a circumference of about 4 inches and diameter (or width across) of up to 2 inches.
Most flaccid penises range between 1 to 4 inches. This means some men gain a lot of length when they get an erection, while others gain an inch or two. When cold or swimming in cold water, a penis can actually pull up inside the body, but will lengthen when warmer. All of this is normal!
Some penises naturally hang to one side or the other. Some penises also have a slight bend to them, even when erect. This is perfectly normal and nothing to worry about, especially if the bend has been present since infancy.
However, if your penis changes from straight to bent, it is possible that you have Peyronie's Disease, which is build-up of a harmless plaque. Treatment is available.
Back to top
Some men have circumcised penises while others have intact foreskin. Both are accepted and common in U.S. culture. A man with an intact foreskin simply has a thin layer of skin that covers the head of his penis. When aroused, the foreskin usually retracts, exposing the head of the penis.
The important thing to remember about foreskin is to keep it clean as sweat, oils, and dead skin cells can build up under it. This buildup can form a white or yellowish pasty substance called smegma.
Smegma is perfectly normal and nothing to worry about. Just wash it away when you take a shower to avoid getting a yeast infection. For more information, including common concerns, visit our circumcision and foreskin health article.
Back to top
When a man gets aroused and comes, he releases ejaculate or semen. The amount of semen a man usually ejaculates is less than a teaspoon, but this can vary.
Ejaculate is usually a whitish color, although some men do have yellowish semen. If there is pain upon ejaculation or you are unable to ejaculate, see a doctor. Ejaculate that has blood or a greenish tint should also be checked out.
Semen also comes in a variety of consistencies and textures. At times, it may be thicker and clumpier than usual. Generally, this isn't anything to worry about. These variations are influenced by the last time the person ejaculated, how aroused they were, and even what he ate earlier in the day.
Back to top
The important thing to remember about penises and ejaculation is that everyone is different. Healthy penises do not all look the same, so try not to worry or compare yourself to others.
Remember, you can always talk to your doctor if you are concerned that there might be a problem.

Even before Sub Pop struck gazillions gold when punk rock broke in 1991 with Nevermind, the Seattle label was abiding by and stamping its merch with its tongue-in-cheek, yet notorious (and now complete) "World Domination" credo. But back in their cash-strapped early days, that domination only extend ... More >>
When word first started leaking out on Facebook that New Brunswick, N.J.'s Court Tavern had closed, an early response was, "Again? Is this a yearly occurrence now?" It wasn't as if the Court hadn't been in trouble before. A decade ago, management successfully fended off developers who wanted to buil ... More >>
The ZEBU! song "Your Band Is Nothing"from Hookers In Sweatpants (Feeding Tube, 2006)is pretty hard to argue with. Guitar-slinger Steve D'Agostino pinches off mammoth riffs that somehow conflate hair metal, Molly Hatchet, bubblegum bliss, and peevish Peavy blare while scrappy sin ... More >>

The second half of the data from the Women's Health Initiative Memory Study
(WHIMS) has now been analyzed, and the answer is clear: For women to avoid
increasing their risk of developing dementia as they get older, they should
just say "no" to hormone replacement therapy.
A great deal of the data from the Women's Health Initiative of the National
Institutes of Health has served to debunk a few well-worn tenets of women's
health in the last two years, one of which is that hormone replacement wards
off dementia, including Alzheimer's disease. Last year researchers reported
that combination hormone therapy—estrogen plus progestins—doubled
the risk of dementia in older women and did not benefit global cognition,
including memory, concentration, language abilities, or abstract
Now two new reports in the June 23/30 issue of the Journal of the
American Medical Association detail the results of the same study, only
for women who took estrogen without any progestins.
"The use of estrogen by women 65 years and older to prevent dementia
or cognitive decline is not recommended," said Sally Shumaker, Ph.D.,
NIH's principal investigator for WHIMS and an associate dean for research and
professor of public health sciences at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical
Center in Winston-Salem, N.C. "We found a similar, but slightly weaker,
trend toward increased risk of dementia among the women taking estrogen
She added, "Women should follow the Food and Drug Administration's
recommendation that those who want to use menopausal hormone therapy to
control their menopausal symptoms should use it at the lowest effective dose
for the shortest time necessary."
Shumaker defined the risk this way: "In a population of 10,000 older
women, all taking estrogen alone, there would be an additional 12 cases of
dementia per year. For 10,000 women taking the combined hormone therapy, there
would be an additional 23 cases of dementia per year. Clearly, hormone therapy
does not prevent dementia—as was thought when we began this important
The Women's Health Initiative trial using combined hormone therapy with
both estrogen and progestin was halted by NIH in July 2002, when researchers
discovered an increased risk of breast cancer, heart disease, stroke, and
blood clots in the subjects. They also determined that combined hormone
therapy decreased the risk of hip fracture and colorectal cancer but that the
possible benefits were overwhelmingly outweighed by the increased risk of
morbidity and mortality.
In February the remaining estrogenonly arms of the study were halted as
well, when analysis revealed an increased risk of stroke and no reduction in
risk of heart disease. At that time, Shumaker and her colleagues at the 39
study sites said they did not believe that continuing the study until its
planned conclusion next year would add any new information. In April the
researchers reported that they had found an increased risk of blood clots in
women using estrogen alone, but no significant effect on breast or colorectal
cancers. Subjects did not have a reduced risk of fractures.
In the second JAMA report, Shumaker's colleague Mark Espeland,
Ph.D., also a professor of public health sciences at Wake Forest University
Baptist Medical Center, reported that beginning estrogen-only therapy after
the age of 65 can have profound negative effects. Not only is there no
cognitive protection effects, but also there may be a small negative effect on
overall cognition. In addition, this negative cognitive effect may be greater
for women who have cognitive difficulties to begin with.

Photos: Technicolor wafers star on IDF floor
Summary: Wafers of prototype 80-core chips and PCs sporting Intel's upcoming chips are on dazzling display at the Intel Developer Forum.
1 of 7Image
WaferHello, Peter Max. Here is a shot of a wafer with the 80-core chips Intel showed off at its three-day Intel Developer Forum, held in San Francisco.
The 80-core chips are set to come out in around five years and have the capability to send out 1 trillion bits of information per second through an I/O channel.
In person, the wafer only looks slightly multicolored to the human eye. The camera exaggerates the effect in this photo.
Unfinished wafer
This wafer of prototype 80-core chips is half-finished so visitors to IDF can see the underlying communications paths between the cores.

From a cutting-edge cultural commentator, a bold and brilliant challenge to cherished notions of the Internet as the great leveler of our age
The Internet has been hailed as an unprecedented democratizing force, a place where all can be heard and everyone can participate equally. But how true is this claim? In a seminal dismantling of techno-utopian visions, "The People's Platform" argues that for all that we "tweet" and "like" and "share," the Internet in fact reflects and amplifies real-world inequities at least as much as it ameliorates them. Online, just as off-line, attention and influence largely accrue to those who already have plenty of both.
What we have seen so far, Astra Taylor says, has been not a revolution but a rearrangement. Although Silicon Valley tycoons have eclipsed Hollywood moguls, a handful of giants like Amazon, Apple, Google, and Facebook remain the gatekeepers. And the worst habits of the old media model–the pressure to seek easy celebrity, to be quick and sensational above all–have proliferated online, where "aggregating" the work of others is the surest way to attract eyeballs and ad revenue. When culture is "free," creative work has diminishing value, and advertising fuels the system. The new order looks suspiciously like the old one.
We can do better, Taylor insists. The online world does offer a unique opportunity, but a democratic culture that supports diverse voices and work of lasting value will not spring up from technology alone. If we want the Internet to truly be a people's platform, we will have to make it so.
From a cutting-edge cultural commentator, a bold and brilliant challenge to cherished notions of the Internet as the great leveler of our age
Jaron Lanier is the bestselling author of You Are Not a Gadget, the father of virtual reality, and one of the most influential thinkers of our time. For decades, Lanier has drawn on his expertise and experience as a computer scientist, musician, and digital media pioneer to predict the revolutionary ways in which technology is transforming our culture.
Who Owns the Future? is a visionary reckoning with the effects network technologies have had on our economy. Lanier asserts that the rise of digital networks led our economy into recession and decimated the middle class. Now, as technology flattens more and more industries-from media to medicine to manufacturing-we are facing even greater challenges to employment and personal wealth.
But there is an alternative to allowing technology to own our future. In this ambitious and deeply humane book, Lanier charts the path toward a new information economy that will stabilize the middle class and allow it to grow. It is time for ordinary people to be rewarded for what they do and share on the web.
Insightful, original, and provocative, Who Owns the Future? is necessary reading for everyone who lives a part of their lives online.
Now with a new chapter that focuses on what great bosses really do. Dr. Sutton reveals new insights that he's learned since the writing of Good Boss, Bad Boss. Sutton adds revelatory thoughts about such legendary bosses as Ed Catmull, Steve Jobs, A.G. Lafley, and many more, and how you can implement their techniques.
If you are a boss who wants to do great work, what can you do about it?Good Boss, Bad Boss is devoted to answering that question. Stanford Professor Robert Sutton weaves together the best psychological and management research with compelling stories and cases to reveal the mindset and moves of the best (and worst) bosses. This book was inspired by the deluge of emails, research, phone calls, and conversations that Dr. Sutton experienced after publishing his blockbuster bestseller The No Asshole Rule. He realized that most of these stories and studies swirled around a central figure in every workplace: THE BOSS. These heart-breaking, inspiring, and sometimes funny stories taught Sutton that most bosses – and their followers – wanted a lot more than just a jerk-free workplace. They aspired to become (or work for) an all-around great boss, somebody with the skill and grit to inspire superior work, commitment, and dignity among their charges.
As Dr. Sutton digs into the nitty-gritty of what the best (and worst) bosses do, a theme runs throughout Good Boss, Bad Boss – which brings together the diverse lessons and is a hallmark of great bosses: They work doggedly to "stay in tune" with how their followers (and superiors, peers, and customers too) react to what they say and do. The best bosses are acutely aware that their success depends on having the self-awareness to control their moods and moves, to accurately interpret their impact on others, and to make adjustments on the fly that continuously spark effort, dignity, and pride among their people.
Now you see it : how the brain science of attention will transform the way we live, work, and learn by Cathy N. Davidson
Davidson's book is about a mismatch of our education system and what people need in order to succeed in today's world. She argues that the 4th great Information Technology Revolution requires us to change our educational institutions as well as our workplaces. One example she tackles is the use of multi-choice questions on tests, do they really make sense anymore, given the ease with which so much information is available at our finger-tips on the internet.
Our schools and educational system were designed for the last century, reflecting the values and needs of the Industrial Age in which they were created not for a world in which technology has reshaped the way we think and learn. Therefore the emphasis on standardized tests of reading, writing, and arithmetic is a sentimental reaction a longing for the past.
She points to a magnet school in Durham NC, that is on the failing list, everyone is trying really hard, but with 30% of the students being non-native English speakers those standardized tests may flunk a school out of existence.
She makes the point that we ought to see people as differently abled, instead of disabled. For example, there's this company SonyaLista who trains certain people to check for computer-code mistakes, "Normals" are bad at this task, however, people with Autism-Spectrum, make superb checkers of computer-code mistakes.
One problem I had with her book is that she stretched her evidence to make her points. For example, she points to the fact that computer games can help seniors with visual-spatial field perception. While this is true, the very best thing you can do to help brain functioning at any age, but particularly at older ages, is to perform physical exercise. She fails to mention this fact.
I'll admit it I picked this book up because of the purple Holstein pattern on the book and then checked it out for the title.
It's an interesting read for those concerned with business, marketing and reaching new customers. I think it could give you some good ideas for a business or for a non-profit and even a library. I think it's main message is we can't just keep doing everything the same and still stay vital and important to our community and customer base. We need to keep striving to improve, be memorable and provide excellent service.

Intel contextual awareness: 'We know what your wife is up to'
Intel Labs is working on a technology that uses what it calls "contextual awareness" to advise you of the best method to use when contacting others. "I want to call my wife or text my wife during the workday," Intel research engineer Philip Muse told The Reg during a pre-show technology showcase on Monday at the Intel Developer …
If she's using Intel kit
Don't bother contacting her. Just send her more batteries.
What a pudding
"I want to call my wife or text my wife during the workday," Intel research engineer Philip Muse told The Reg during a pre-show technology showcase on Monday at the Intel Developer Forum in San Francisco, "but I don't know what she's doing. She's out and about, she's busy, she's doing something – I never know whether I should call her or text her."
By the time you get round to it the moment will have passed. Sounds like she gives him hell if he disturbs her.
Re: If she's using Intel kit
More batteries? Nudge nudge, wink wink.
Creepy, creepy, creepy. Do. Not. WANT.
That is all.
Re: "Creepy" Yes, it is. I am not entirely certain what it is about this tech that...........
...........makes my skin crawl but it does.
Re: "Creepy" Yes, it is. I am not entirely certain what it is about this tech that...........
I agree.
My first thought was, "'I Know What You Did Last Summer' was a horror movie, and now 'I know what you're doing right now' is supposed to be a good thing?" Count me out!
Contextual Awareness
We had contextual Awareness, prior to the widespread adoption of Call Waiting and Voice Messages.
You called. If the line was busy, you got a busy tone. If she wasn't there, the phone rang out.
Now, you call, the phone rings, you have no idea what that means, you get the voice messaging service, any message at all that you leave implies that you think it is so important that she should check her messaged and respond. You've lost the contextual awareness but you are making a context-sensitive demand.
One small reason why people now prefer to SMS rather than to Call. In the modern context, it's just more polite.
Re: Contextual Awareness
The phone company doesn't care either way - an SMS earns them money too. The whole genesis of voicemail was for phone companies to grab that minute that an unanswered or busy call would otherwise have made them miss out on. That's also why the menus are so extensive and.. so.. slow..ly.. spo..ken. - the whole idea is to give you as little opportunity as possible to use the first (usually free) minute.
No thanks
Too creepy by half. There's nothing like being alone, if only for a few minutes, knowing that no-one you know has a clue where you are/what you're doing and that they can't contact you. Brief freedom in a complicated world. I'm not paying Intel or anyone else to take that away.
But anyway, I don't know if it's because my brain is sluggish at this hour, but I don't quite see how it works. If all my devices are technologically equipped to work out what I'm up to, how does that help the caller? Does it depend on them having the same technology (or at least software that understands) and on my tech telling them what it thinks I'm up to?
on a plus side
At least this will stop people calling me when I'm having a shit.
Re: on a plus side
It'll probably come with a 'Boss Override' so he can tell you you've been in there long enough.
Should I call ?
Before you contact user, the following context information is available:
Location : Office
Office Door : Locked
Desktop PC Activity: Streaming Video
Desktop PC Input: Alternating between keyboard and mouse (one hand only in use)
'Phone Location: On Desk
'Phone Sensor Data: Desk Vibrating at ~ 1 Hz
1) Call
2) Don't Call
3) Give it 5 minutes, then call.
Re: Should I call ?
Before you contact user, the following context information is available:
User Relationship: Spouse
Location : Western Star Motel, 1175 Interstate Highway 2
Room Allocated : 3 hours
'Phone Location: On Dresser
'Phone Microphone Data: "Oh god oh yes oh god oh god [spouse's name] do it me do it harder YES!..."
1) Call Spouse.
2) Call Divorce Lawyer.
3) Explode Spouse's Phone Battery.
Re: Should I call ?
4) auto-unlock door so I can join.
Can you hold my coat?
This is what happens when companies run out of ideas. Desperate!
Text: 'are you free for a call' and call if the answer comes back 'yes'
Sometimes people just need to do things they will regret later but never say a word about :P
"Picture of what's she''s doing" you might wanna rephrase that ;)
Ignoring the moral question, the practical questions remain:
- how do you apply logic to the hard sensor data?
- how do you distinguish between useful soft data and the junk data, given you're actually relying on people using calendars, and in a consistent manner? (tip: only the truly anal will keep a domestic calendar).
- how do you overlay soft data with hard data?
forget about the wife.
I want to know the best time to call the neighbor's wife.
Meant to post that as AC 8-(
Re: forget about the wife.
Listening in on what's going on?? Creepy. But I would like to know the best time NOT to call my elderly parents. Aged != sprightly, if you catch my drift.
Re: forget about the wife.
Mine visits occasionally, with her Mum. God knows how that was allowed to happen!
And spends a great deal of time bent over gardening downstairs. Just a normal skinny separated brunette ... with an insanely hot accent ... and can drink anyone under the table .... :P
Oh and my wife''s older half-brother's wife''s younger sister (bear with me!) looks and sounds exactly like a youthful Kim or Kelley Deal. OMG.
I have to occasionally have dinner parties with her and pretend very hard that's she''s definitely not interesting. They must think I''m Mr Stiff Upper Lip or something.
Even my slightly nerdy (ex-maths teacher) but actually insanely hot blonde ex boss was a problem in that way.... she''s changed surnames twice since we worked together and that wasn't very long ago. At one point she was quizzing the guys in the office "so, would you ever consider a hooker" .... got round to me and what do you say, I guess you think umm "what do you mean exactly, here"? :P
