Some recent explanations of depression have suggested that it may be "evolutionary" in that there are advantages to the depressed individual which arise from some aspects of depressive symptomatology. While the depressive behaviour of withdrawal from the adverse environment may provide some immediate benefits to the depressed individual, thus making it potentially "adaptive" in the short-term, this does not fit the biological definition of "evolutionary". In fact, depression does not meet two of the three required criteria from natural selection in order to be evolutionary. Therefore, while some depressive behaviour may be advantageous for the depressed individual, and is therefore "adaptive" in an immediate sense, it cannot be accurately described as "evolutionary". Implications for research and clinical practice are discussed.

Hello everyone, I'm new to the forums.
I need to create a custom list that has the fields:
Now I want Job title to be auotimatically filled in depending on what name the user selected from the first option. The actual date in e-directory already has the person's job title, so it seems resonable to me that when the user chooses the person
they want to add, the person's job title automatically fills in a field. However, I can't seem to be able to do that. I created the Name field then when I went into the Show Field drop down, it had several options including telephone number, surname,
job title. I then selecvted which I wanted to show. Is there a way to create another field that the user doesn't see that then is populated with the the job title, info which is otained from whatever name was selected?
Phew, sounds complicated, I know!
Also, In the picture field, I selected the field type as url/image, then selected show link as image. But what I would prefer would be the option for the user to be able to browse the site, or their computer for the image file. Currently, the
user has to know the url for where the image is stored in a document library.
Any suggestions would be grateful
View Complete Post
We are finding that the second list using a field name from the first list that is defaulted does not take the field entry but uses the default when the record is created. The First list field does take the change and populate the record. We
need the second list to accept the field change in creating a new record.
I have a custom list with allÃÂ Active Directory user data in it......
(AD name /ÃÂ Email / Address / tel .... etc)
I then have a form that user can select their AD name, i want to populate the fields "Phone" + "Email"ÃÂ ÃÂ etc....
from the custom list....
How do i do it ? using sharepoint designer only ??
Thanks Rob
I have a requirement wherein I want to populate the currently logged in user in people editor field of my custom web part and based on the user in people editor field, Also I should be able to select any other user if needed. I need to fill some other
custom fields as well. I am able to get this quite easily. But suppose I remove the current logged user's name from people editor and enter some other name and then click on Check Names, then how do I change the custom fields based on the new user ?
PeopleEditor peNameofFileRequestor = new PeopleEditor();
TextBox txtPhoneNumber;
TextBox txtDepartmentName;
SPContext cnxtCurrent;
protected override void CreateChildControls()
cnxtCurrent = SPContext.Current;
SPUser usrCurrent = cnxtCurrent.Web.CurrentUser;

I have a complex customized list and I need to pass parameters of two fields so that when the 'Questionnaire' is completed and subsequentially opened after initial submission, it will retrieve the Number and GUID automatically in respective
fields. I send an email out with a link to the 'Form' that carries the parameters. I am trying to use the following javaScript but am unsure as to where to place this on the SharePoint page for it to work.
ANY HELP is APPRECIATED!!
<script type="text/javascript">
function loadFormVars()
getQuerystring('CustodianGUID', 'ctl00_m_g_d08916d8_7224_4665_be72_2de381f45985_ff46_1'); ///replace
customerGUID and form field name
'ctl00_m_g_d08916d8_7224_4665_be72_2de381f45985_FormField11_ctl00_ctl00_TextField'); ///replace customerGUID
and form field name
alert("it works");
function getQuerystring(key, field)
key = key.replace(/[\[]/,"\\\[").replace(/[\]]/,"\\\]");
var regex = new RegExp("[\\?&]"+key+"=([^&#]*)");
var qs = regex.exec(window.location.href);
document.getElementById(field).value = qs[1];
I received some much needed assistance from this forum in the past. My current situation is that I have a xml data connection to a sharepoint list over an employee database that works fine. It allow me to connect to a view on the sharepoint list correctly
and display the info which is a drop down on a last name field. I now need to be able to select a last name such as Doe and have other fields such as job code be populated on the form from the same sharepoing list I have already connected to. Any direction
is greatly appreciated.
I have 2 dropdownlists, the second (department) cascades from the first (division). I use a jquery script to update the second drop down list. When the user clicks submit, the underlying model is updated, apart from the new value for department. 2 ideas I have for fixing this are; a) Generate a postback. Prefer not to do this because of bad user experience. b) With a JQuery change event, make a call to server side and set a ViewData variable that I can use to update the field in the model later.
However there must be a better way. This is the view;
Is the binding of Repeating Table to a Multiple Selection List Box, the only way to loop through the list box. I have a number of list boxes (multiple selected) in my form and wold like to find out which ones have been selected. The only posts
I can find also use the Repeating Table.

Okay so for nearly a year i think, ive had a swollen node under my jaw and the right side of my neck and ear aches constantly! I was diagnosed with hashimotos about 2 years ago but the endocrinologist never offered me an ultrasound. He has now discharged me!
Im pretty sure the right side of my neck feels bigger that the left, i cant feel any lumps, it just feels swollen along with the node on the same side!
Im terried of going to the doctors as i feel as though they think im crazy and making things up! They never take me seriously! Im absolutely terrified that this could be thyroid cancer which could have spread to my lungs!

It's been 6 weeks since you posted so hopefully you have already gone to the doctor but if you haven't, do not delay. It could be one of many different things, serious or not serious, but you'll never know if you don't go. Don't let your worries about what the doctor thinks keep you from doing what you need to do. You must be an advocate for yourself.

When I turn off my phone then back on they are still there in partial form. This happens with some of the programs also. Then for no apparent reason they are gone. Any ideas?

Once again I had the pleasure to attend Mexico's Fashion Week. The week when we can finally forget our problems and enjoy the magic of some amazing designs, as if we were in a fairy tale.
In this story David Salomón would be anyones favorite Godmother, or Godfather…
You have probably heard his name, as I´ve written about him before (if not, what are you waiting? Check it!… there´s even a video 😉 )
His designs are both fresh and elegant with a glimpse of sexiness; but just the right amount.
No surprise he has dressed a few celebrities…
Here some photos!
This collection was inspired in the designers hometown, Cancun, the strand and the movement of the ocean. Quite a master piece I´d say.
I want to thanks his PR people for the invite, it was truly an amazing night…
P.S: I want to thank them even more for putting me upstairs in the VIP area 😉

The photo above is one I took around 5:30 am in the Jamaica Bay wildlife refuge this past sunday. My friend Pablo and I were trying to go to Coney Island but went the wrong way on the F train so instead of turning around we just found another beach. I recommend taking the A train to Far Rockaway and getting off at the Broad Channel stop. There was a guy on our train carrying a surfboard! We soon met the man pictured Joseph from Poland. Real interesting character. Homeless but living off the land, in queens! he showed us secret paths and said we should play chess more , "keeps the mind active.", he said.

great country western titles
chris' gary stewart post got me thinking about the dark sense of humor that runs through country music titles. years ago, my friend kelly told me the title of the following deana carter song. i hadn't heard the actual song till i youtubed it a minute ago. it's not particularly good, but i think the title is funnier if she delivers it instead of me. fast forward to the 1:15 mark if the wait gets too tough:

the lemonheads "confetti"
have you ever suddenly thought of a song that you haven't heard in a dozen years, and then listened to it and felt like it sounded different in your memory? this kinda happened to me today with this one:
i didn't really remember the drums at all, and i forgot all about the guitar solo. i guess part of re-assessing the songs i liked from the early 90's involves tuning out guitar solos though. in my brain, this one was way more acoustic, and evan dando's voice wasn't as deep. oh well. it's still a pretty great song, and i ended up DLing the whole album, which totally rules and makes me feel like i'm 14 and finding exciting hairs all over my body.
also: this video is exactly what i thought art school would be like circa 1992... you know, like, taking some clunky old camcorder out to an abandoned old building and filming your friends playing guitar. then maybe coming back and shootin the shit with some tweedy professor who makes comparisons to william burroughs or something. bonus points for androgynous girls in dark lipstick and sprockets attire.
1992 evan dando made an even more beautiful woman than 1992 dan.

The Parachute Men - Leeds Station
at summerstage in 1989 andy biscontini let me borrow a NME comp that had the song "sometimes in vain" on it by the parachute men. for years i had dubbed and redubbed it from cassette to cassette and is one of my all time favorite songs that i do not have a copy of and never see in record shops. "leeds station" is nowhere as good as "sometimes" but you get the idea.
I want this record as much as the Adult Net full length by Brix Smith :

philippe garrel and '68
here is a clip from garrel's "regular lovers", a wonderful film he made a few years ago as a reflection on may '68 and the following months, lives and loves. somewhat a portrait of himself starring his son. garrel was very active in the may '68 uprisings and has spent a good amount of his career thus far making films dealing with it and the fallouts, lives after, etc. he was also married to nico for several years in the 70s and made some amazing films with her and her music. google him up, as well as the zanzibar group, for more info...he's one of my tops. this is a beautiful scene.

slavoj zizek on 'democracy now!"
i finally finished watching the complete youtubing of slavoj zizek's democracy now interview. zizek is in his usual rambling, hilarious, contrarian form (albeit a bit more sniffly than usual... cocaine or just the flu?)... he says some totally annoying stuff about the czech reforms of '68, and there's his usual everything-is-secretly-the-exact-opposite-of-what-it-seems-to-be stuff, but it gets better as it goes along. by its end, zizek is speaking less abrasively than usual, and making some unsettling claims about the alliegance between capital and authoritarianism that i found pretty spot on.
plus, you get a rare glimpse of amy goodman's sense of humor... she seems to spend the whole interview trying to not bust out laughing. i think i have a minor crush on her.
(apologies to all you non-justin folks that don't give a shit about this, etc... good luck with the show btw, hustles...)

this is one of my favorite songs ever written. it only picks up more strength in the fact that, depending on mood, you can jam it via james carr, richard & linda thompson, the burrito bros, etc. this ry cooder performance of it is powerful! every dude on there cut the shit so long ago and you can just feel it in their vibe. moves only slightly cooridinated, unthought, but locked. harmonies perfect. clothes casual, musicians 100% professional. london for the gig on a thurs, maybe an LA jam on sat and a session in pheonix on monday. you know they don't forget to send some money back home to take care of their people. ry's the man cuz he knows what he needs to look good.

Bruce Conner RIP
Prolific Beat era artist Bruce Conner dies
Kenneth Baker, Chronicle Art Critic
Tuesday, July 8, 2008
Bruce Conner, a San Francisco artist renowned for working fluently across media, died at his home of natural causes on Monday. He was 74.
Mr. Conner was one of the last survivors of the Bay Area Beat era art scene that included Jay DeFeo (1929-1989), Wallace Berman (1926-1976), and Wally Hedrick (1928-2003).
"We were all anonymous artists here in the '50s," Mr. Conner told The Chronicle in 2000, shortly before the opening of his retrospective "2000: BC The Bruce Conner Story, Part II," at the de Young Museum.
Despite an enviably long record of gallery and museum exhibitions, Mr. Conner met with little recognition outside the worlds of contemporary art and independent film.
Born in McPherson, Kan., in 1933, Mr. Conner arrived in San Francisco in 1957. Schooled in art at Wichita University, the University of Nebraska and Brooklyn Art School, Mr. Conner first got noticed for the short films he assembled from scavenged documentary and B-movie footage. Several of his films, including "A Movie" (1958), a sort of paean to human failure, and "Crossroads" (1977), are regarded as classics of independent filmmaking, even though Mr. Conner shot no original footage for them.
"Crossroads" replays, at ever slower speeds, official footage of a hydrogen bomb detonation on Bikini Atoll, until repetition - 27 times - and slow motion transfigure its colossal destructiveness into something hypnotically beautiful.
In the early 1960s, Mr. Conner made grotesque assemblages out of common household objects that ridicule consumer society's attachment to personal possession, including more precious sorts of artwork. They remain some of the most powerful inventions of their kind in American art.
He went on to make obsessively detailed abstract drawings, large-scale photograms (with the help of Edmund Shea) in which his figure appears made of light, and collages of old wood engravings in the manner of Surrealist Max Ernst.
Mr. Conner never stayed with one medium for long, resisting the art world's inclination to identify every artist with a style and a biographical myth.
Asked once by a critic to mention some artists who influenced him, Mr. Conner said, "I typed out about 250 names," and instructed the writer to add that "limited space prevents us from printing the remaining 50,003 names on Mr. Conner's list of influences."
Mr. Conner announced his own death erroneously on two occasions, once sending an obituary to a national art magazine, and later writing a self-description for the biographical encyclopedia Who Was Who in America.
Mr. Conner is survived by Jean Conner, his wife of more than 50 years, and a son, Robert.
No memorial event is planned as yet.

THIEF - Trailer
that miami vice clip was great. i liked the movie so much i have had a hard time changing out of my colin farrell "crockett" costume the past two years. i posted this at ice station zebra but i heavily recommend 'thief' it is michael mann's first film. tuesday weld is wonderful and even james caan and jimmy belushi can't ruin it. in the ways mann's film 'collateral' influenced the miami vice film. 'thief' set the tone and look of miami vice the tv show and apparently was one of the reasons it was greenlit. also amazing soundtrack by tangerine dream. oh and willie nelson is in this movie.

deep cover, keeping it real.
the huge anticipation i had for mann's feature length miami vice a couple of years ago was such a welcomed blessing. meg and i had our minds blown by collateral, perhaps his "best" film in which all the parts and vibes known to mann just clicked with ease. google said miami vice was next and the heat was on. netflix got the seasons 1 and 2 dvds delivered. it felt great. tc, meg and i had our radars turned on to track and absorb the people so far into deep cover that they forgot where they came from, who they were. this often gets compounded in the art and music places we travel, where personalities are large and evolving, based on what one is into and looking at, what cover they are under. the lines between a maniac, a phony and a legit warrior are so blurred. it is full of excitement, like the frontiers of yore, and can happen at any place, any time. as long as there are people communicating and needing to be understood, you can have this.
i recently finished denis johnson's "tree of smoke" and it blew my mind in many an unexpected way. to begin with, i wasn''t much a fan of his prose. i beleive the film "jesus' son" turned me off. as a film student, the potheads loved it due to the drugs and the girls loved it due to crudup. i'd be trying to drink that 40 and talk about barray hannah's "ray" knocking me over but every motherfucker had the same thing to say: "dood did your read jesus' son?". several years later i did and it wasn't bad at all, though still not sold. "tree of smoke" is as good as any of the heavyhitters vollman has laid on us over the past 15 years, and he's really knocked me out w/ his dreams of north america. both authors create complete mythology in a haze of undercover loss and reinvention. "tree of smoke" is perhaps the best antiwar book i have ever read and i cannot recommend it enough.
i am a david allan coe superfan. he is one of the best songwriters, singers and characters america has produced. he's so illegal on so many levels, but so perfect on others. he's about as lost in deep cover as an artist can get and must remain there in order to survive.
was it real?

This is a quote from Ava Gardner's Wikipedia page:
"She began dating billionaire aviator Howard Hughes in the early to mid-1940s, a relationship that lasted into the 1950s. Despite his initial claims that she would be an easy catch, they were never intimate unless one considers fingering to be a level of sexual intimacy[citation needed]."

text: Would anybody seriously recommend buying a DVD recorder at the moment with all the different formats/versions. From what I can gather DVD+RW seems the way to go as it has the most flexibility and the Philips models seem reasonable for under £400. But will this format become obsolete in 12 mths time. Should I hold onto my cash for a while longer?? Any advice would be really appreciated.

HAPPENINGS INDIA MUMBAI HAPPENINGS MALDIVES This is the city's signature festival when the elephant-headed god of wisdom and luck is welcomed for ten days. This year, the celebration crosses into September, with idols being taken regularly in procession to be floated into the sea. A vantage point to see these immersions would be from one of the many beachfront hotels in Juhu like Sun and Sand, Sea Princess and the Marriott where you will get a ringside view. SPOTLIGHT Welcoming Ganesh City tour groups also arrange Ganesh festival tours which cover areas difficult to access on your own. Some of them start off where the idols were created with a visit to a potters' colony, others offer detours to flower markets and tastings of festive sweets and snacks like the dim sum shaped steamed "modak" offered to the deity. There are visits to Maharashtrian families, close up views of the ceremonies and guided excursions to see the huge statues, and make a wish. grandmumbai.com/ganesh-festival-tours, mumbaimagic.com/ganesh-festival-tour NINE NIGHTS FOR A GODDESS Navratri, Durga Pooja, Dassera–these are the various names for a major festival celebrating the different forms of the Goddess Durga. In Mumbai, the Gujarati community celebrates with music and dance over nine nights, which is what Navratri literally means. This year the dates fall between September 21st and September 30th, and there are many venues where you could join the folk dancing, as you keep the beat with decorated sticks. Hotels, sports grounds and amusement parks now host dance nights with selfie booths, LED screens, and neon and laser lighting, but there are quieter, traditional celebrations in private clubs and neighbourhoods. Costumes, often available on rent, are changed every night. The food on offer is strictly vegetarian. MTDC (Maharashtra Tourism) also arranges a pilgrimage tour around temples. The Bengali version, Durga Pooja, is different. You can go "pandal (pavilion) hopping" to view the beautiful Goddess idols and partake of the free lunch or "bhog" sponsored by wealthy families. Three popular ones are at Lokhandwala, Shivaji Park and Tulip Star, Juhu, which are conducted by celebrity families or Bengal clubs in great style, with many stalls offering delicious Bengali food including fish and meat dishes. travelmail.in, whatshelikes.in, lokhandwalapuja.com ILLUMINATING DIWALI This year, Mumbai celebrates the festival of lights on the 19th of October but the illuminations are put up far ahead of the day. Every year the city light up gets more elaborate. From traditional terracotta or brass oil lamps to festoons of fairy lights and lanterns, every house and heritage building is decorated or flood lit. You could browse through old-style street markets, modern malls or the ever-popular wholesale Crawford market, which overflow with everything an Indian family would need to invite Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth and prosperity, into their homes. A terrace restaurant facing the bay would be a good place for extravagant firework displays. You could simply sit on Chowpatty beach sands at Marine Drive, or splurge in a lounge bar like Aer atop the Four Seasons. fourseasons.com SPOTLIGHT Rustic Chic Shack The Fish & Crab Shack redefines the ambience of beachside dining. This time, the rustic-chic culinary oasis sits halfway along Finolhu's sandbar. Located in the Baa Atoll, the eatery is the perfect place to unwind while basking in the serenity of nature and savouring fresh and delicious seafoods. A glass of rosé or crafted cocktail should complete the occasion. Along with its scrumptious menu, the Fish & Crab Shack location is perfect for a walk on the pristine sand. The surrounding clear blue merely intensifies the experience and available boat service to the restaurant rounds out the joy of escape to the Maldives. finolhu.com 112

text: I got my Chanel travel purse - I am very excited but have a question as I haven't bought a purse on Ebay before. The purse has a slight smell to it - a bit musty. I'm not sure if it was due to the packing (there was no packing materials, it was in its dust cover and the box it was in was slightly banged up and not taped properly so moisture could have got into the box during transit) or if it was because the purse was stored away. Question - do you think the smell will go away? How long should I wait? Should I notify the seller now of the situation or wait to see if the smell goes away? Thanks for the advice - Lisa

My name is Alyssa, and I've been dancing for 13 out of the 17 years of my life. I started out taking ballet and tap classes. As my love for dancing grew, I began expanding my horizons. I started taking lyrical, jazz, hip hop and ballroom. I even dabbled in acrobatics. Now, I focus on ballet, pointe, lyrical, tap and jazz. I have 5 years of competition experience and have been involved in 2 dance companies. the company I'm now a part of does benefit performances and annual recitals.
I'm creating this blog simply because I love dance and my experiences have given me a solid knowledge base.

TOS+ v3.3 Released!
The first update for 2010 is now online for Active Subscribers! This updates adds 60+ Animals/Beast as Pathfinder Mounts, fixes reported gremlins and simplifies sheet usage for Pathfinder Users! Check the release notes for all the details!
Has your Forum subscription time has expired?
You purchased TOS+ as a stand alone, with no Forum access?
You still have your Personal Key?
Then consider getting some Forum Access time - that will give you 1 or 2 years access to the Forum, and allow you to download v3.3 and all the future updates within your time period!!
New Video online!
Forum Moderator Duniagdra has been making a new series of videos, updated to version 3 of the Sheet! This is a perfect opportunity to polish your knowledge of the Sheet, and get a guided tour of TOS+! You can view this in the video section of the Home Page!
Writing a good script is a difficult task: Duniagdra is looking for volunteers willing to write scripts to assist in producing more tutorial/instructional videos. If you're willing to write it, he's willing to produce it!
The Loot Divider!
I have been working on a new tool for D&D3.5 and Pathfinder players - it's called the Loot Divider! Basically, that tool will make your treasure sharing much easier! Check out the new home page I built for it, and specifically, the preview images that are online. The Loot Divider will soon go into beta-testing on the Forum!
Sample Characters revisitted
The Adventurers [Sample Characters] section of the Forum has been revamped thanks to the efforts of Patransom. Characters have been organised in a handy list, ordered by level. This is quite handy for DMs who are looking for a quick character or even players looking for a character concept. Come and share your Characters!
The Champions of Destiny: a new way to play!!
Have you ever wanted to play online, yet have avoided it because of the time investment required? Have you ever wanted to practice your DMing skills? The CoD is the answer for both situations! The CoD is a PbP area that, unlike other PbPs, is Mission based. Because a Mission is only one (or more) encounters, not only is it short, but it allows anyone to run a mission!! For the DM, this means deciding what the Mission is about, and the requirement details for the Characters; the CoD is open to any type of mission, in Pathfinder, D&D3.5 and even d20 Modern!! A Mission can be a single encounter like 'defeat the Dragon!' or a string of encounters like 'retrieve the stolen crown'! For the Players, it means short adventures which allows them to try out new races and classes that they would not otherwise try out! If you wish to DM a Mission, check this thread for details! Those interested in playing, can check The Dice Room [PbP Related] section for new Mission announcements!
Duniagdra's VTT test run with MapTool
With the help of JaguarPriestess as the hostess, Duniagdra is running Virtual TableTop sessions with MapTool, a program that allows multiple people to connect and hold live games as if face to face. To participate requires downloading maptool-1.3.b63.zip, and an Active subscription to TOS+, including TOS+ v3.3. All the details are here. Come join the fun!

Checking out someone on google/social network sites before a date
Just a thought that's come to me from sharp_yet_blunt's thread - I've been in a relationship for over 4 years so I've never had a chance to do this. Have you ever done this? Do you think you would if you had a date? I know I would.
Not google
social networking? yes because you get to find out more about her interest & personality!
if not right before, definitely right after
i found squarah's livejournal page about 2 hours after we met.
i disgust myself.
Never read a girlfriends livejournal
I found that out the hard way.
or an ex's
It actually
signalled the end of one of my relationships. It was full of lies about me!
here you go for starters:
olegrich is a teetotal, quiet, unassuming chap
livejournal = online diary
what happened = I'm not saying.
I found it
by accident (honest guv). All hell broke loose.
off topic tangent:
I have come up with a business plan, tell me what you think. I get a massive amount of storage and get a bot to crawl myspace/facebook et al archiving pages and in 10 years time have a wealth of blackmail material/stuff to sell to tabloids regarding celebrities and public officials etc
its already been done
see myspace.com and facebook.com for more details.
that too
i don't think they'll sell it though
It's not as bad as someone you've started seeing
asking your ex all about you.
I try not to though. I just get insecure.
just make sure you have
the same for some male friends it will disguise it and make it look like a comedy thing

"But I, with shouts of grateful praise,
will sacrifice to you.
What I have vowed I will make good.
I will say, 'Salvation comes from the Lord.'"
will sacrifice to you.
What I have vowed I will make good.
I will say, 'Salvation comes from the Lord.'"
~ Jonah 2:9, NIV~
I love my dentist's office. He and his staff are the only ones in the world who have ever told me my mouth is small! All joking aside, for the better part of my life I was incredibly ashamed of that very part of myself. I was raised by a mother who would regularly condemn me for having "such a big mouth", mocking me for my content and volume. That condemnation continued into my young adult life. I can recall a college friend saying, "You never shut up. What makes you think everybody wants to hear what you have to say all the time?" For many years I shrunk back in embarrassment and regret because of my big ol' mouth.
It wasn't until I read Rick Warren's Purpose Driven Life that I felt set free. I learned there that God had given me a big mouth for a reason! He created me with a specific purpose in mind. Without my personality, characteristics, quirks, experiences, talents, and abilities, I could never accomplish the mission He had in mind for me. It was terrifically liberating to look back on my life and see how the Lord had brought together a unique intersection of these things, so that I could become the person He meant for me to be.
Here are some of the purposes that God has shown me for my big mouth. I bet you will find that He has some of these same purposes for you:
Several years ago, I had the honor of hearing our governor speak to members of his own political party. He concluded his talk by posing the question, "So why am I telling you all this when you already know and agree with it?" He then went on to draw the analogy between himself passionately making his case to like-minded people and his father, who was a pastor.
- First, last, and if nothing else, my Creator gave me the mouth I have to bring glory, honor and praise to His name! ~ Sing forth the honor and glory of His name; make His praise glorious! (Psalm 66:2, AMP)
- I am called to speak life and hope into a hurting world. ~ I call Heaven and Earth to witness against you today: I place before you Life and Death, Blessing and Curse. Choose life so that you and your children will live. (Deuteronomy 30:19, MSG)
- My voice should point the world to Jesus. ~ "Go home to your own people," Jesus said, "and tell them what the Lord has done for you and how he has shown you mercy." (Mark 5:19, CEB)
- With the training and experience I have been given, I am to advocate for those with special needs or any who are treated unjustly. ~ Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy. (Proverbs 31:9, NIV)
- I have been moved to lighten the heavy load of life for others by sharing humor. ~ "He will fill your mouth with laughter and your lips with happy shouting." (Job 8:21, GW)
- God has called me to be an encourager, especially to those raising children with special needs. ~ We ask you, Christian brothers, speak to those who do not want to work. Comfort those who feel they cannot keep going on. Help the weak. Understand and be willing to wait for all men. (1 Thessalonians 5:14, NLV)
- My mouth should serve to instruct, my children first, and others thereafter. ~ "So keep these commandments carefully in mind. Tie them to your hand to remind you to obey them, and tie them to your forehead between your eyes! Teach them to your children. Talk about them when you are sitting at home, when you are out walking, at bedtime, and before breakfast!" (Deuteronomy 11:18-19, TLB)
He told the crowd, "A man asked my father why he goes on evangelizing his own congregation each Sunday. He said, 'Pastor, aren't you just preaching to the choir?' And my father replied, 'Yes, but I preach to the choir because I want the choir to sing!'"
My hope in sharing the story of my big mouth with you is that you will sing! Whether God has also given you this tool or some other, know that the Lord fashioned you, dear parent, with a unique set of skills, experience, quirks, and talents all to be used by Him for His glory. What an amazing privilege!
PRAY: May my words and my thoughts be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, my sheltering rock and my redeemer. (Psalm 19:14, NET)
~ Barb Dittrich

The idea of complexity is significant in the evolution of human beings' thought processes.
But in some occasions this complexity is apparent, only due to our incomplete knowledge of reality.
Beautifully demonstrated in this video is...where do Moebius transformation come from?:
I hope some day when I try to explain something complex I will be able to find another point of view to explain it in such a clear way.
A point to take into account is that sometimes if you change the sphere of thinking (kind of the "dimension") you can find an easy answer to something that has been bothering you. This tends to happen to me when I am putting a string of verbal arguments, and I reach an impasse or an absurd proposition. Depending on the realm of the thought process, I can put it in graphical/geometrical display and I am able to get out of the problem, a lot of times very easily. This is actually very helpful when you are inmersed in verbal circular thinking and you have not realized it...yes, it happens to me a lot, I need more practice!
The question that I therefore ask myself is...is this difference in resolution capacity due to the nature of reality/thought process (if it's not based in reality) or is this difference due to the intrinsic capacities of different modes of thinking?
Reading some arguments about string theory made me think that probably the nature of thought reality is similar to a model whose characteristics you are able to calculate with string theory tools while another one, that is theoretically equivalent to the first one, is impossible to calculate. That phenomenon always astounded me from a down to earth stand point. Let me put it in another way...
For two objects/dimensions/versions of reality/whatever you want to call them, that by definition are equivalent, you have one mathematical/physical tool that tells you that you can obtain the properties of one of this objects very easily, but for the other it's almost impossible! And sometimes only by changing the tool you can obtain the absolute opposite result. Just amazing (This has to do with Calabi-Yau shapes, but for those who are allergic to physics, you don't need to know them to understand the underlying concept).
This could be a nice approximation to my point about the different modes of thinking, but sadly I can only connect these two sets of thought pathways through analogic reasoning, not through any other mode of thinking...and analogies can happen without being actually real associations(yeah, correlation does NOT signify causation. Stupid reality messing up with my beautiful theoretical constructions).
It would make sense anyways that different types/modes of reasoning have different areas of dominion of reality, just like you can't really apply logical thinking to an artistic evaluation and viceversa...or can you? Could this be another example of me not knowing that "extra" dimension that would link several types of reasoning?
Sadly due to the intrinsic characteristic of this thought pathway I can't really obtain a result, because the argument is based on my inability to find this relationship! (argghh, I hate when I do this, because most probably it reflects a mistake in my train of thought, but again, that is why this blog is called Learning to think, not "I know how to think, and let me show you how easy it is!")
Well, is time to think another thought

China's State Council releases a second list of 100 state facilities and sites commemorating the 70th anniversary of the country's victory in the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression.
The list of sites outlines places related to events involving Japanese war crimes, surrender and trials, and locations where Chinese forces led by the Communist Party of China (CPC) and Kuomintang (KMT) fought Japanese invaders.
The graves of Tong Linge and Zhao Dengyu, both commanders of the Nationalist Army who died during the war, are on the list.
Also on the list is the cemetery for the fallen soldiers in the Battle of Pingxingguan, which took place in north China's Shanxi Province in September 1937. The Communist troops, who were familiar with the mountainous area, cut off the enemy's logistics line and killed more than 1,000 Japanese troops in an ambush.
The Ministry of Civil Affairs also announced a list of 600 fallen soldiers and groups who sacrificed their lives during the Japanese invasion of China in the 1930s and 40s on Monday.
The list included names from the CPC-led Eighth Route Army, New Fourth Army, the South China Guerrillas, the Northeast Anti-Japanese United Army, and other anti-Japanese militia resistance forces as well as famous officers and soldiers from the KMT troops.
It also listed some renowned representatives of Chinese patriotic personages and foreigners who supported China and died in the war.
The State Council called for more protection and management of historical sites. It also called on local government departments to organize relevant memorial activities to remind the public, especially the youth, about the Japanese Fascists' wartime crimes.
In September 2014, China released the first of two lists of facilities, sites, fallen soldiers, and heroic groups to commemorate the country's victory in the war.

Here is my in car video from the 2015 NOLA Majors Spec Miata Race 2. Unfortunately Drago's and Berry's cars were hurt from Race 1 and not up to speed. First two laps are a bit boring but the racing gets really exciting from the third lap onwards (5:00)
NOLA is all about rythm and exit speed. Get it right and your car looks like its turbo-charged. Get to wrong and it looks like you are towing a parachute!

Clinical Hypnosis
Clinical hypnosis is an altered state of awareness, perception or consciousness that is used, by licensed and trained doctors or masters prepared individuals, for treating a psychological or physical problem. It is a highly relaxed state.
Hypnosis is a state of inner absorption, concentration and focused attention. When our minds are concentrated and focused, we are able to use our minds more powerfully. Because hypnosis allows people to use more of their potential, learning self-hypnosis is the ultimate act of self-control.
In the mental health area, it is used for phobias, anxiety, sexual problems, alcoholism, smoking control, speech disorders, weight control, chronic pain, age regression therapy, self-esteem/ego strengthening, memory/concentration improvement and habit control.

Kim Cattrall, Pamela Anderson, and 9 Other Stars You Didn't Know Were Canadian
Everyone knows that Drake is Canadian (or, at least, every Degrassi fan knows). And you likely know Justin Bieber is, too. But there are many other under-the-radar Canadians in the spotlight. (According to a new documentary, Being Canadian, which corralled Michael J. Fox and Mike Myers, among others, keeping a low profile may be a national quality.) On the eve of Canadian Thanksgiving (it's tomorrow!), here are 11 famous Canuck transplants you might have missed.
Seth Rogen
Seth Rogen is in good Canadian company, as many members of his clique—Jay Baruchel, Evan Goldberg, Michael Cera—share his nationality. (The country has always had a strong comedy connection, of course: Jim Carrey, Mike Myers, Lorne Michaels, and Dan Aykroyd are also all Canadian.) And even though the funnyman has always had American citizenship (his father is American), the Vancouver native still feels his Canadian roots. "I definitely associate with being Canadian much more than being American," he said in 2013. "You're always, 'Wow, that happens here?' As long as you're [in America], there's still new weirdness to uncover."
Michael Cera
Despite the strong comedian contingent, Michael Cera, born in Brampton, Ontario, told Esquire in 2009 that not everyone from the country is funny. "There are funny Canadians; there are unfunny Canadians. People here act like it's such an achievement. 'Oh, my God, a Canadian is funny!' I mean, there are a lot more funny Americans. Why does nobody pick that up? I mean, really, there are a few funny Canadians, especially compared to the massive number of hilarious American people. 'Oh, as it turns out, there are a few people in Canada who are worth watching.' That's really what it comes down to."
Rachel McAdams
If you really, really wanted to figure out how Rachel McAdams's family got to London, Ontario, take a look at the ancestry-tracing segment The Notebook actress did for TLC.
Ryan Gosling
Hey girl, did you know that Ryan Gosling was born in London, Ontario? Like many of his fellow countrymen, the 34-year-old has quite the sense of humor about his birthplace. He even starred on MTV's American Talk "The Oh Canada Edition" to unpack various stereotypes, like how many different kinds of flannel he wears at any given moment.
Pamela Anderson
The Baywatch babe, who was born in Ladysmith, British Columbia, is aware that she doesn't exactly seem like the poster child for the country. She told Esquire this year, "People say I'm the ultimate California girl, which is funny, being that I'm Canadian."
Joshua Jackson
Joshua Jackson's triple dekes could be attributed to his Vancouver birthplace, but The Mighty Ducks star has said that he has triple nationality. (His mother is Irish, his father American, and while he was born in Canada, he grew up in California.) He told The Guardian in 2012, however, that he feels mostly Canadian: "As much as I feel a part of American life, there are still aspects of this country that make me glad to be Canadian," he said. "[Such as] the political structure. America is just more geared to the right. Our conservatives, generally speaking, would still be seen as liberal in the States and our socialists would be seen as communists. All of that makes me proud to be Canadian."
Ellen Page
While promoting her most recent film, Freeheld, the story of a same-sex couple fighting for gay rights, the Halifax, Nova Scotia, native was asked if being Canadian affected her perspective. (The country legalized gay marriage in 2005.) "The difference I feel in Canada is religion is way less intense," she told Time. "That's not to say there's not lots of religious people in Canada who observe whatever religion they choose to partake in, but the rhetoric influencing politicians, laws, and human rights is just not the same. For me, that's what separates it."
Will Arnett
The Toronto native is such a supporter of the Toronto Maple Leafs that he appeared in the team's highlight reel. "You know something? People say that Toronto Maple Leafs are at the center of the hockey universe," Arnett said. "You know why? Because we are." (Cue "The Final Countdown.")
Kim Cattrall
Though the actress was born in the U.K., her family relocated to the city of Courtenay, British Columbia, when she was 3 months old. (Cattrall's Twitter bio reads: "Liverpool-born, Canadian-bred New Yorker.") She's since moved on from her iconic Sex and the City role and returned to her hometown to star in a new HBO Canada show, Sensitive Skin. "After being involved in a groundbreaking situation with Sex and the City, I was really looking to return to television with something equally as challenging and risky, as you never know if something is going to work," she said when the show first premiered. The series, which has Cattrall adjusting to a hip new Toronto lifestyle after her child goes away to school, was just nominated for an International Emmy for comedy.
Matthew Perry
Before Perry landed the role of Chandler on Friends, he was on track to become a professional tennis player in Canada. He quit the sport, however, when he moved to the States. "Giving up tennis wasn't really a decision I had to make," he said in 2012. "I was a very good tennis player in Ottawa, Canada—nationally ranked when I was, like, 13. Then I moved to Los Angeles when I was 15, and everyone in L.A. just killed me. I was pretty great in Canada. Not so much in Los Angeles. It was insane. I realized I wouldn't be playing tennis for a living, so I went for acting."
Ryan Reynolds
The Vancouver-born actor has said that he's often confused for another Canadian, Ryan Gosling. Reynolds tweeted a rather crude cheat sheet, but according to the actor, the countrymen aren't really well acquainted. "I know him, vaguely, being Canadian we just run into each other every once in a while—doing Canadian things," Reynolds joked. "Curling. We're in a curling club together."

Living the Dream
Having him home is both awesome and infuriating. I'm not gonna lie - at first I was all snuggle-demandy and lovey-dovey-goo-goo and up in D$'s business. There was a lot of face-touching, people. It was serious love time in our apartment.
But then the work week started and I kept coming home from work and the house wasn't exactly the way I left it. The man left piles of his stuff everywhere and kept forgetting to eat the cake I made him. Turns out I had gotten really used to having total control over my environment (this will not be at all surprising to anyone who knows me in real life). I had to work very hard not to nag.
Now we are pretty much back to normal. I've gained back all the weight I lost working out all the time and eating the same food every day. The bedcovers are infuriatingly messed up but I come home to a decent meal most nights. The cats have almost forgiven us and demonstrated their total preference for D$ over me. We are finally caught up on episodes of Psych.
Also, Dr. D$ is living the post-PhD dream. This means that that he grew a beard and is brewing beer.
I like the beard but do you have any idea how messy beer-making is??

Oh gawd...brewing beer is both fun (and tasty) and a total mess! I did it for a while and it's all fun and games until a capped bottle decides to blow up. It's a fun hobby though, and great for gift-giving. Happy to hear things are getting back to normal!ReplyDelete
Haha!! This was a great post. I'm glad things are back to normal. But curious, is making beer less expensive than buying beer??? I mean if you factor in the mess and all?ReplyDelete
My idea of beer making is climbing in the car and driving to my local liquor store to pick up the main ingredients: namely the beer.
@Carrie Dee: he is brewing in very small kegs...he calls them cornelius kegs? Which means that we not have a mini-fridge kegerator in our bathroom. IF that blows up we are totally screwed.ReplyDelete
@Izzybella: you and I have roughly the same idea of what beer-making entails. I mean, i live in Portland, why make beer when I am surrounded by microbrews? Whatever, he's happy.
Ha! I have this every week. Delighted with the husband's return on a Friday evening, only to be peeved by Sunday evening when I realise that piles of junk abound everywhere. Or at least, that my piles of junk have been shifted around in ways I'm not entirely happy with. I've grown accustomed over time, but it was funny to hear you write of it. :)ReplyDelete
... Beards, not bombs.ReplyDelete
Ah, cohabitation. Can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em.ReplyDelete
(I'm happy you're back together.)
