Howdy All,
I decided the best way to learn java was to try to actually write an application I wanted rather than buying a 'how to book'...
after bumbling along for a few weeks I'm beginning to doubt my wisdom .. but I am stubborn so now the questions start and I apologise in advance for them.
My current road block is a linked list issue that i am going to post in the Collections forum.. not sure if that is the correct place for it but i saw another linked list question in there.
Oh yeah, and if anyone can recommend a good 'how to' book...

"Excellent!" cried Shih-yin with a loud voice, after he had heard these lines; "I have repeatedly maintained that it was impossible for you to remain long inferior
to any, and now the verses you have recited are a prognostic of your rapid advancement. Already it is evident that, before long, you will extend your
footsteps far above the clouds! I must congratulate you! I must congratulate you! Let me, with my own hands, pour a glass of wine to pay you my compliments."
Yü-ts'un drained the cup. "What I am about to say," he explained as he suddenly heaved a sigh, "is not the maudlin talk of a man under the effects of wine. As far as the subjects at present set in the examinations go, I could,
perchance, also have well been able to enter the list, and to send in my name as a candidate; but I have, just now, no means whatever to make provision for
luggage and for travelling expenses. The distance too to Shen Ching is a long one, and I could not depend upon the sale of papers or the composition of essays to find the means of getting there."
Shih-yin gave him no time to conclude. "Why did you not speak about this sooner?" he interposed with haste. "I have long entertained this suspicion;
but as, whenever I met you, this conversation was never broached, I did not presume to make myself officious. But if such be the state of affairs just now,
I lack, I admit, literary qualification, but on the two subjects of friendly spirit and pecuniary means, I have, nevertheless, some experience. Moreover, I rejoice
that next year is just the season for the triennial examinations, and you should start for the capital with all despatch; and in the tripos next spring, you will, by
carrying the prize, be able to do justice to the proficiency you can boast of. As regards the travelling expenses and the other items, the provision of everything
necessary for you by my own self will again not render nugatory your mean acquaintance with me."
Forthwith, he directed a servant lad to go and pack up at once fifty taels of pure silver and two suits of winter clothes.
"The nineteenth," he continued, "is a propitious day, and you should lose no time in hiring a boat and starting on your journey westwards. And when, by your
eminent talents, you shall have soared high to a lofty position, and we meet again next winter, will not the occasion be extremely felicitous?"
Yü-ts'un accepted the money and clothes with but scanty expression of gratitude. In fact, he paid no thought whatever to the gifts, but went on, again drinking his wine, as he chattered and laughed.
It was only when the third watch of that day had already struck that the two friends parted company;
and Shih-yin, after seeing Yü-ts'un off,
retired to his room and slept, with one sleep all through,
never waking until the sun was well up in the skies.

Greater Kaohsiung, Chiayi — cities little known outside Taiwan, but in Saturday's presidential election, they could hand victory to an opposition candidate expected to cool relations with China.
The cities are in the south, where Taiwanese are traditionally wary of China's embrace and where many are pinning their hopes on Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) presidential candidate Tsai Ing-wen (蔡英文), who is aiming to become Taiwan's first female head of state.
"Little Ing elected," hundreds of people chanted on Sunday in Greater Tainan, affectionately using Tsai's nickname as they caught a glimpse of her passing by in an open-top jeep.
Morale is high among Tsai's followers, who believe she has a real chance of regaining power for the DPP, which lost to President Ma Ying-jeou (馬英九) four years ago.
Relations between China and Taiwan have improved since Ma took office on a Beijing-friendly platform, allowing in more Chinese tourists and signing an important trade pact.
Ma is running for a second and final term, arguing that he can maintain prosperity in Taiwan through stable cross-strait ties, although some voters appear unconvinced.
"I don't like China as it often bullies Taiwan and looks down on us," 22-year-old student Liu Chia-wen said as she took part in a major rally for Tsai in Greater Kaohsiung. "I think Ma is leaning too much toward China and he hasn't done enough to uphold Taiwan's sovereignty."
Tsai has given few details about where she would take Taiwan's China policy if elected and Beijing has been careful not to explicitly warn against her, fearing it could boost her support.
However, there is little doubt China would prefer four more years of Ma rather than a return of the DPP.
In a veiled reference to the DPP's track record, a spokesman for Beijing's Taiwan Affairs Office said last month that insisting on Taiwanese independence will "harm the peaceful development of relations."
Southern voters are concerned Taiwan has become too reliant on Beijing during Ma's term and dubious over the supposed benefits of closer ties.
"We southerners are rooting for a Tsai victory," said Wu Jia-chi, a mother of two who runs a restaurant in Chiayi County.
"I don't think we should open too much to China, which will want to have more control of Taiwan and eventually turn us into a second Hong Kong," she said, referring to the territory where British rule ended in 1997.
Interviews with voters in the south lay bare the unease that remains to this day.
Huang Li-chin, a rice distributor from a farming family in Tainan, criticized Beijing for "trying to buy its way into Taiwan people's hearts" while refusing to remove missiles targeting Taiwan.
"Taiwan may be small and weak and China may be rich and powerful, but we want to be our own masters and we don't want to become a province of China," she said.
Huang is among those dismayed by a 2008 incident when police prevented demonstrators from displaying Taiwan's national flag during a visit by a top Chinese official.
"If we don't have any dignity, it won't matter how much more money we can make from trade deals with China," she said.
Tsai has sought to ease fears that her victory would stir up tensions, vowing to seek peace and dialogue with Beijing.
Taiwan's young democracy has traditionally been defined by China policy, but it is a less prominent factor in these elections because of voter apathy. National polls show Ma leading Tsai by as little as 3 percentage points.

Hack reveals Android tablet within Sony e-reader
£129 E Ink fondleslab, anyone?
Sony's latest e-book reader, the Wi-Fi enabled, touchscreen-equipped PRS-T1, is now on sale in the UK for £129, making it one of cheapest big-name Android gadgets out there.
That's right, Android. Sony has used the Google OS as a foundation for its own e-reader UI. And owners have already rooted the gadget to bring the standard Android interface to the fore.
One Russian hacker has posted a set of instructions to walk the brave through the process. And he's uploaded not only a set of tools to help you open the PRS-T1 but also a rescue package to restore the Sony look'n'feel.
The details are in Russian, but as always Google is your friend.
Blog The Digital Reader has tried the trick and found it works.
We have to make the inevitable 'proceed at your own risk' warning. The hack may invalidate your warranty.
Meanwhile, hackers examining the new Kindle Touch and the Kindle touchless - aka the Kindle 4 - have found that Amazon has upped its security, with firmware updates now requiring official sign-off before they will unpack. That had been a trick used previously to install third-party code on the e-reader. ®

OBETZ, Ohio – Columbus Crew defender Chad Marshall called his team's loss to the New York Red Bulls on April 7 a "bad game."
That's probably an understatement. The Crew were down 3-0 inside 40 minutes as Thierry Henry led RBNY to a dominant 4-1 win.
"You kind of throw it away and move on," he said.
But there was one positive play out of the defeat, one that Marshall says he has viewed it several times on tape: In the 89th minute, he scored a header off a corner kick by rookie midfielder Kirk Urso.
As it turned out, it would the only point of Urso's MLS career before his tragic death on Aug. 5.
"The kid served an unreal ball," Marshall told MLSsoccer.com on Wednesday. "It was nice I was able to get on the end of one for him."
The memory of that moment will be with the center back as he readies to face New York on Saturday at Red Bull Arena. It's the first time the Crew have faced the Red Bulls since their early-season loss. But during the months in between meetings, Columbus (12-9-6) have morphed into an almost entirely new team.
In fact, there will be at least six changes in the starting XI from April 7. Urso's passing is the most noticeable change, but the Crew will also be without Shaun Francis, who was waived on June 27, and Bernardo Añor, who suffered a season-ending knee injury on July 14.
Meanwhile, center back Eric Gehrig has not cracked the lineup for nine matches, forward Olman Vargas has not featured in the Crew's last 10 MLS fixtures, and Emilio Rentería has been relegated to the bench due to the scintillating play of Federico Higuaín and Jairo Arrieta.
Even the two substitutes used in the first New York game have seen little time of late. Forward Aaron Schoenfeld has not played in 11 games. Midfielder Ethan Finlay has 21 minutes in the past eight games.
"At that point in the season, in our mind, that was the best team we could put on the field because we had something like 13 players injured," Columbus head coach Robert Warzycha said.
The only starters from the game who are expected to repeat Saturday are Marshall, goalkeeper Andy Gruenebaum, right back Sebastián Miranda and midfielders Eddie Gaven and Milovan Mirosevic.
Gaven was replaced by Finlay in the 55th minute, the only time the club leader in minutes has not been on the field all season.
"That was a tough game for pretty much everybody," Gaven said. "It's one we'd all like to forget. We're going there to try and prove that game was a fluke and that's not the team we really are."
In so many ways, he's already right.

Washington Post Reporters Believes Bogus Police Report Over Own Editorial Aide Eye Witness And Photographic & Video Evidence
from the this-is-why-no-one-trusts-the-press deptPost updated to clarify that it was an editorial aide, rather than an editor who witnessed things
Via Jay Rosen we learn of the absolutely bizarre story of how a Washington Post editorial aide witnessed an altercation involving an off-duty police officer who pulled his gun on people in a snowball fight -- and the eventual Washington Post writeup on the story which completely ignored the eyewitness account of its editorial aide in favor of the claim by the police that the gun wasn't drawn. Yes, a Washington Post staffer happened to have been on the scene and witnessed the whole thing. He called it in and told a reporter about it -- but the reporter simply ignored the guy's account. As Jay Rosen notes: "Who you gonna believe? The police department or your own staffer's lying eyes?" Even worse, by the time the Washington Post put out its report, there was already photographic evidence of the drawn gun posted online, along with a video where the cop admits to pulling the gun.
Later on, the Washington Post did "update" its report, mentioning the online evidence, but waited for quite some time before finally linking to the video (and never linked to the photos). As the Washington City Paper notes about this, it's in part due to very old school media thinking:
Yet the reason why the Post screwed this up is that they all have linkophobia. If you link to an outlet---such as, God forbid, the Washington City Paper---you've lost. You got scooped and all your colleagues are going to look down on you. Linking is a huge sign of weakness---you just can't do it. Far better to, like, call a top police official, buy his version of events, and just place it in a post, regardless of the contradicting evidence that's already posted elsewhere.Remember, this is the Washington Post, that recently had a column claiming that a blog linking to a Washington Post story (multiple times) had ripped off the Washington Post. So, perhaps that explains why the Washington Post refused to link to others who had more accurate takes on the story. It didn't want to "rip them off," and preferred to get the story wrong, even though it employed an eye witness.
Take a close look at that 10:20 update on the maybe-gun-pulling cop: "The plainclothes D.C. police detective may have unholstered his pistol during the confrontation with participants in the huge snowball fight, based on video and photos posted on the Internet."
Bold and italics are mine. They're mine because this is the most cowardly, selfish, arrogant news conduct out there today. What the fuck is "video and photos posted on the Internet"? How does that help readers? It's as if I can go to www.internet.com, and there, on the first screen, will be the video and photos of the snowball fight and the maybe-gun-wielding cop. "Posted on the Internet" would be acceptable if this were 1997.
The reporters used this hazy phrasing because they were too chicken-shit to do something that we all have learned to do over the past, say, decade or more. And that's to link to competitors and acknowledge their contributions to stories.
So where are all those reporters who insist that the professional press is needed because they get this stuff right, while it's the upstarts that rush to post false claims?

Creator: Backus, David, Kehoe, Patrick J., and Kehoe, Timothy Jerome, 1953- Series: Modeling North American economic integration Abstract:
We look for the scale effects on growth predicted by some theories of trade and growth based on dynamic returns to scale at the national or industry level. The increasing returns can arise from learning by doing, investment in human capital, research and development, or development of new products. We find some evidence of a relation between growth rates and the measures of scale implied by the learning by doing theory, especially total manufacturing. With respect to human capital, there is some evidence of a relation between growth rates and per capita measures of inputs into the human capital accumulation process, but little evidence of a relation with the scale of inputs. There is also little evidence that growth rates are related to measures of inputs into R&D. We find, however, that growth rates are related to measures of intra-industry trade, particularly when we control for scale of industry.

Stoke defender Abdoulaye Faye is determined to earn a new contract with the club which could see him end his career at the Britannia Stadium.
The 32-year-old's current deal expires next summer but he wants to extend his stay and hopes his performances this season will be enough to persuade manager Tony Pulis to do so.
"This is the last season of my contract, but I would prefer to stay here," he said. "I am happy here, the fans like me and I have everything here.
"Maybe I have three years left before I finish football, but I am happy here, so why go somewhere else?"
Faye has been a key figure in keeping Stoke in the top flight for the last two years, having joined just prior to their maiden Barclays Premier League campaign.
He has enjoyed the experienced immensely and believes the team is probably the strongest it has been since coming up from the Championship.
"When I first came to Stoke some people said the club was going straight back down, but I said I wanted to come here and I wanted the challenge," he told The Sentinel.
"But we stayed up then and in the second season as well. Now this year we have a strong team and more good players.
"Everyone works hard together and enjoys the game. The team spirit is as good as it was."

Lackey (5-8-6-3-1, 103) gave up three singles and a walk, threw a wild pitch, and left the bases loaded for Felix Doubront -- who allowed all three inherited runners to score (one on a bases-loaded walk), and gave up three runs of his own when Josh Hamilton's triple cleared the bases. Michael Bowden was tagged for two dongs in the ninth, by -- guess who -- Mike Napoli and Ian Kinsler!
In the home half of the seventh, Carl Crawford singled and Jarrod Saltalamacchia ground-rule doubled, and Marco Scutaro singled them both home. Adrian Gonzalez walked to start the eighth and Kevin Youkilis doubled. David Ortiz's single scored one run and Darnell McDonald's sac fly scored another.
The Yankees beat the Blue Jays 9-3 and are now 1.5 GA in the AL East. The Red Sox are headed to Canada, and begin a four-game series at Skydome tomorrow afternoon; The Yankees host the Orioles.

Hair, hair is probably one of the most frustrating tasks to get right when starting your day for work or play. The only way I ever get my hair right is when it's on paper. In this tutorial I will show you how to draw realistic hair. These are some styles that I personally like. Drawing hair is really not that hard at all. It's probably the easiest thing to draw when drawing people or a face. The best part is you can make up your own unique styles. You have to first understand the basics of drawing it. Hair comes in tons of styles; curly, long, short, straight, buns, ponytails, pig tails, braids, punk, emo, and a whole bunch of other varieties. Since this tutorial is for the novice drawers, I will give you the easiest instructions on drawing hair. Beware; drawing hair can be frustrating at times. Getting it right takes patience and persistence. Of course this depends on the style you are trying to draw. The fun part of this tutorial, you can create your own styles by mixing up the hair dos. Well, time to stop the chit chat and let's get down and draw some realistic hair shall we!

Buying a car from eBay/United States
I know USA cars are cheap compare to cars in Canada.
do you think it is worth it??
How much do you think I can save avg. (let's say $30000 CAD car)
I am thinking of buying an e46 from states and since I never bought such a big thing just want to know how does it process.
Will they help me to do the paper work when my car is crossing the boarder??
contact the dealer, you don't have to go through ebay. You can go down and see the car for yourself if you're not sure about it.
To cross the border you need to have a admissible letter from BMW ($350) and you have to have the ownership faxed to the border 3 days ahead of time.
Got this from a post on Bf.c
How to Import a Vehicle into Canada
For all those interested in bringing your dream car into the Great White North, this is for you. I'm still in the process, but I'm nearing the final steps, so I thought I'd share what I learned here with everyone else. What follows is a walkthrough on all the steps you need to take to get your baby back home.

Assuming you've found the car you like, have gotten someone in the area to check it out, and, if you're super organized, gotten a local mechanic to inspect it, you're ready to begin the import process. This actually took a lot longer than I expected, and it's full of red-tape and fees.
What to Do Before You Do Anything:
Make sure the car is legally allowed into Canada. Several cars, for various reasons, are banned flat out. Don't make the mistake of buying a car not able to cross the border. There's a list of acceptable vehicles here:
The 15 Year Rule:
If the car is more than 15 years old, determined from the month and year of the build date (found on a sticker on the d. side door paneling), it is exempt from all RIV regulations. 6 months more on my car and I wouldn't have to deal with any of this, but it's important to note, because it makes importing older cars a lot easier. (See post later in thread for more details)
For the sake of convenience, let's assume you love the car, everything checks out, and you're ready to buy it. I took the path of flying down, then driving it back up, so I'll go from there.
Documents Needed:
You'll need your seller to provide you with the following documents to keep on hand:
1. The Vehicle Title (You can do with just a faxed copy before the actual transfer of title takes place)
2. A Bill of purchase. Just a piece of paper stating "I, Seller, am selling this Vehicle to X for $XXX on the date of X. The VIN # is XXX". Have both parties sign the bottom with printed names underneath. *In my case, this was fine to go through the border with, but when I went to ICBC recently, they required that I fill out their own Bill of Sale to be signed by myself and the seller. Check with your local insurance agency regarding what they will accept.
3. A copy of the registration. More on this later.
Once you have these documents, you'll need to fax them to whatever border crossing you're passing through a full 72 hours in advance. The clock starts the next morning after you fax them, and they don't count Saturdays and Sundays. So assuming you send them in Monday, the clock starts Tuesday and the earliest you can pass through that crossing is Friday. Also note that At some locations, NO IMPORTING IS ALLOWED ON THE WEEKENDS! This almost ruined my trip, so keep that in mind.
After you fax the documents in, get your plane ticket/transportation/travel papers in order. If you're planning on going on a one way flight, or driving down, make sure you're holding on to that list of documents, as they'll want proof when they question you. If you're shipping it through an auto transporter, now is the time to book it.
An aside on Auto Transporters:
Many of the companies I called wouldn't actually cross the border themselves, so you may end up having it shipped to the edge of the country, and having to go down and do the final crossing yourself. Also, you may find it's more cost-efficient if you do the driving. I went from SoCal to Washington, and I received quotes averaging about $1200 USD. My plane ticket was $300 last minute, and gas was only about $100. It was a 3 day trip, so accommodations didn't add up to much either. You also get the thrill of learning about your car over a cross-country trip. If however you find yourself unable to import, this is a good alternative. I believe InterCity Transport (or something like that) is a board sponsor and was previously willing to offer bfc members deals on shipping depending on where you live. Shop around, but know that the cheapest isn't always the best. Get their guarantee on when your car will arrive in writing, and MAKE SURE THEY HAVE FULL INSURANCE! Just type in "Auto Transport Nightmare" into google and see what you get. Don't let this happen to you.
If you chose to drive it back up yourself, you're going to need insurance. Go into your local insurance broker and ask for a "Binder of Insurance". This covers you so long as you go from your origin to your destination via the most direct route. There's some wiggle room, but once you get closer to home you can't blast around the canyons the rest of the day. You'll need to provide the VIN and plate # of the car when you're getting insured. This BoI isn't enough on it's own though. It's only valid if it's riding on a registered vehicle with plates. So if the seller has registration on the car, you'll be driving on his or her plates and registration until you reach your destination. When you meet with the seller, you'll need to get him to sign a Notice of Transfer and Release of Liability form at the DMV. This means that if you crash, it's not going on the seller's insurance.
If the car has no registration or plates, you'll need to go to the nearest DMV and get some. Registration is easy - it comes in the form of a One Trip Permit which lets you leave the country without having to go through emissions testing or any of the other hoops, and it's much cheaper than full registration. You can apply for temporary plates in the same way. Seeing as this is the DMV, be prepared for a long wait. It's best to set half a day to this.
All the insurance agencies I talked to covered their asses saying I had to call all the DoTs for states I was traveling through to make sure the insurance was valid. After a million infuriating automated messaging systems and left messages, the short answer is yes, it's valid.
So you've got the car, faxed the border documents, gotten your insurance, and now you're ready to cross the border.
At the US Border:
Step into the office and produce the original title, bill of sale, and registration. They'll inspect the car and check the VIN, then stamp your registration, and you're off to home turf.
At the Canadian Border:
Produce the same documents again, along with your Driver's license, and they'll hand you Form 1. This is really important, so don't lose it. They'll charge you $195 for giving you this form, 7% of the car's value for GST, and 6% for duty. You'll pay provincial sales tax when you get insurance (6% in BC). To give you an idea of perspective, I paid $6600 USD for my car, and at the border, paid $972. All these funds are non-refundable. Once you cross the border, you now have 45 days to get it inspected and registered, otherwise it's sent back to whence it came. And you're out all those border fees. So don't do this. It's unlikely though, because they give you an automatic 10 day extension, and if you call a week or two before deadline, you can get more time. So if you haven't gotten it inspected in 2 months, get off your ass you lazy bastard.
Once You've Gotten It Back Home:
You'll need to get a "Recall Clearance Letter" first from BMW Canada. This is letter basically saying the car you have is free from all outstanding recalls in Canada. It MUST have the following: Manufacturer's Logo, official letterhead, the signature of the official with his name and position, and the VIN #. Every other car company does this for free, but, seeing as it's a bimmer, BMW now charges $500 for it. Nothing you can do about it either
Now you have to bring in into a Canadian Tire to get it officially inspected. There are two inspections you need to go through - An Out of Province inspection (OOP), and a Federal Out-Of-Country Inspection. You get the form for the OOPI at your local insurance brokers, or if in doubt, your provincial insurance agency should have it. Both deal with the general safety of your car; The OOCI checks to make sure the car is road-legal throughout Canada, and the OOPI checks your vehicle against provincial regulations. You can tow your car to the shop, but you can also get special 1 - 3 day temporary operating permits designed especially for this case. They average around $30 - $80 a day depending on the level of coverage and the value of your car. I wouldn't trust Canadian Tire to empty my ashtray, but unfortunately they've got the government contract. There's also a few local shops that should be licensed to do it, call the RIV to find one in your area. Some, not all, of the thing's they'll look for:
Metric Speedometer, DOT approved Windshield, Windows, Light bulbs (Take out those Angel Eyes!), child safety restraint harnesses, working seat belts, Catalytic converter present, high mounted stop light, neutral switch, hood struts, acceptable window tint (35% in BC), and daytime running lights. They'll make sure the car is in good working order and nothing could be danger on the road. If you have any motor swaps or large conversions like I did, they will need a receipt for the work done. Anything they categorize as a "Major Modification" needs to be accompanied by a receipt showing the shop who did the job and the parts that were installed. So if you're looking at buying an S52 swapped car, make sure you get the paperwork too!
**As far as the daytime running lights go, you can buy a relay kit at BMW for $307, but Canadian Tire sells one for $27 that does the same thing. In this case the extra money for OEM parts isn't justified. All the DRL do is turn on the headlights when you switch the ignition.**
If you pass the inspection, they'll stamp your Form 1 and in about a week a new "Canadian Certified" sticker will be mailed to you to stick on your car.
The Last Step:
You've jumped through all the hoops, now comes the final stretch. Bring all your papers to your provincial insurance broker to get your new registration, plates, and insurance. You'll also be paying your provincial sales tax now. Shove the important documents in your sagging glovebox, keep the rest in a file back home, and you're good to go.
Vroom Vroom:
Put your key in the ignition, your sunglasses on, and roar away. Congrats!
As far as cost goes, here's a breakdown:
Car - $6600 USD, so let's say $7000 CDN
Plane Ticket - $300
Binder of Insurance - $60
Gas for the trip back - $100
Cheap Hotel - $45
Border Fee - $195
Duty and GST - $1000
Cdn Tire Inspection - $80
BMW Recall Letter - $500

Spherical projection.
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 >
Inspired by the flattened historical perspective of ostalgie, this project looks back to forms of spatiality developed under the Eastern Bloc which have since been abandoned as useful design paradigms. Specifically, it revives an excess of unaccounted space-typified by communist parade grounds, monuments and palaces, where space was scaled to the mass rather than the individual-to propose that this form of spatiality could have new relevance for democratic capitalist programs today.
The design relocates the Neubabelsberg Film Studios to the center of Berlin to bring production back to a site suffering from cultural over-exposure. By integrating the studios with a vast public plaza, new possibilities for experimental media and public participation emerge. Public plaza and back lot become one and the same. The location provides film makers with a readily available supply of backdrops (cropped views to different parts of the city) and unpredictable extras, while the expansive blank field of the plaza encourages a new subject: a spectator-producer, someone who produces and consumes content in a continuous feedback loop.
Unlike Schinkel's Altes Museum next door, the plaza's bowl shape forms a non-panorama: it elevates the horizon, blocking out the immediate context and scale while producing a spatially expansive field of vision by juxtaposing much larger elements: the vast concrete basin below and the open sky above. The city is shut out acoustically, visually and historically, leaving an intense focus on movements and actions of people on the surface. The multiple valleys within the plaza create the possibility for disparate simultaneous attractions. These centers are eroded from below and connected to the exterior by cavernous vomitoria, which immediately immerse the new visitor in an expansive field of activity. The elements of distraction that form the plaza require a more extreme peripheral emphasis-a constant awareness and reading of other possible locations for action.
Spherical projections are an experimental technique for this new mode of peripheral viewing. They are synchronic views that are inherently a collection of multiple perspectives over time. They collapse plan, elevation and perspective into a single drawing by looking everywhere at once. Likewise the project, in its manifold mechanisms of representation, becomes a screen for a continual projection of public desires through an excessive multiplication of reality.

Tour the Historic Assateague Lighthouse
August 17, 2013 by Corey A. Edwards
In the early days of ocean commerce, ships relied almost solely upon beacons of landward light to avoid mishap upon the rocky shoals and sandbars of treacherous coastlines. The establishment of coastal lighthouses was an important factor in avoiding said fate and many of their lights continue to protect and direct vessels to this day. The historic and striking Assateague Lighthouse is counted among their number.
Before 1833 there were no such guiding lights along the Atlantic Coast between Cape Henlopen, on Delaware Bay, and Cape Charles, on Chesapeake Bay. As commerce grew, so, too did the necessity of such a guidepost. In 1830, Congress appropriated money for a lighthouse halfway between these two important ports and, in 1832, Assateague Island was chosen for the honor.

Prep notebook: Cherry Creek's Christian Rebhun commits to New Mexico
Ed.: Updated at 1:54 p.m. to include comment from Rebhun.
Christian Rebhun hadn't had much communication with the new staff at New Mexico until two weeks ago. But, Sunday, after completing his official visit to the campus, the Cherry Creek tight end committed.
"I loved everything about it," Rebhun said.
Especially, he said, the mountains. Upon arriving in Albuquerque, he was taken on a tram to the top of the 10,378-foot Sandia Peak.
"I'm a mountain guy, and seeing the snow and stuff, that made me happy," he said.

I know, I know…I wrote, earlier this week, that we'd start using the day after a HealthTalk MS webcast to further discuss the previous evening's topic. But after our show, I have to leave the studio and head to the airport to catch a redeye to Florida. By the time my flight lands and I drive to my parents' place on the Gulf Coast, I'm pretty sure that writing a blog isn't going to be in the cards.
I'm writing this on Thursday morning, unspeakably early, as my day is full and my night will be spent so comfortably snuggled in seat 11D.
We've talked here and there about oral drug therapies for multiple sclerosis. We're all hoping for a safe and effective pill we can pop rather than continue our human pin cushion impressions. We all know that there are trials underway; I thought it might be a good time for an update.
Currently, there are six oral MS therapy trials underway, or in the enrollment phase, studying a total of 6,482 subjects. Some of these drugs are brand new, some are being recycled from other diseases and one is more of a supplemental oral treatment (Estriol, a sex hormone being given along with Copaxone).
Results from earlier, smaller studies show efficacy rates which range from the low 30s to high 70s. Can you imagine, popping a daily pill that left 77 percent of subjects in a Phase II study relapse-free for two years?
It's almost like a dream!
Of course, it's not a done deal. Most of these studies are relatively new and need a couple of years to study the drugs' effects on their subjects. Then a period of detailed analysis of drug side-effects and comparisons to control groups will be completed. All tolled, it will likely be three to five years before anyone outside of a research subject is popping MS pills.
Still, it's a start.
To say that this is a race is not putting too fine a point on it. With some two million people in the world living with MS and about one million of them using current injected or infused medications (and getting pretty sick of it, thank you very much), the first "MS pill" manufacturer is going swimming in some serious cash.
A moment of salute must be given to those 6,482 people who are testing the waters for us. At least one-quarter of them will be on no drug therapy at all for the next couple of years. The others will be taking drugs to see not only if they work, but if they'll make us sick in some other way (or even worse). These brave, some would even say desperate, people are taking one for the team. We thank them!
Here's a question for us all to chew on for the weekend: How effective will an oral drug have to be before you would change? The stage II trials for most of these drugs put them in the range of 30-odd percent efficacy; equal with current injectable therapies. Tysabri (natalizumab) has shown rates nearly double that (though there is some scientific conjecture on the apples-to-oranges aspects of this claim).
We also know that some drugs work for some people and don't for others. Many of us have tried one, two or even more of the current disease modifying drugs to find one that works for us (and some have not found a treatment efficacious and tolerable at the same time).
So, oral drugs are on the way. What factors will you consider once they hit the market? Will you be first in line, or will you mill about the edges to see how things pan out?
I'll be writing, next week, from the sun and sand and, well, pretty much the antithesis of Seattle in December. Oh, by the way, I was informed via e-mail that there are now only four shipping days until Christmas. If you're like me, that means some overnight service is going to be making a boat-load of money from my indecisions procrastinations.
Wishing you and your family the best of health.

The Foundation for Science, Technology and Civilisation (FSTC) is about to undertake a critical review of one of our most significant publications, the 1001 Inventions book. The review will be a thorough and fully open process and we invite all historians of Islamic sciences, medicine and technology, including our most critical colleagues, to support this initiative.
FSTC endeavours to coordinate the work that helps fill in the gaps and inaccuracies in how history is told and taught in popular narratives and in most educational systems. A lot of the work focuses on the Muslim heritage and researching the inventions, discoveries and wisdom from this era, culture and civilisation. The reason for this focus is that we believe that it has been misrepresented or, in parts, excluded from the history told to us, our forebears and our children. FSTC commissions specific research and works with a wide range of reputable academics around the world, to build the most accurate history that we can.
As we know from this work, any history must be subject to critical scrutiny and almost continuous revision as new research casts new light and delivers new insight. This is true for the results of all of this work as it is for the history it seeks to correct. Nothing stands still and periodically we must encourage and commission critical reviews of our publications. This includes 1001 Inventions book.
An honorarium of £500 will be available for each reviewer and we are looking for 14 reviewers in total. Details of how to apply to be one of our reviewers are at the end of this article.
The Third Edition of 1001 Inventions Book: Enduring Legacy of Muslim Civilization (Source)
For those who are unfamiliar with the background, it was in 2006 that FSTC launched its public outreach initiative, 1001 Inventions. This was preceded by an invitation to all academics to contribute to the production of world class content. This attracted more than 1000 peer reviewed academic articles on the history of science, medicine and technology; from Chinese, Indian and Islamic cultures. The result was our web portal Muslimheritage.com. From this content, the first version of the book was produced and the first pilot exhibition staged, in the Museum of Science and Industry (MOSI), in the home of FSTC, Manchester in the United Kingdom. The exhibition has grown in stature, size and impact and travelled the world as a leading attraction at prestigious venues such as the London Science Museum, the New York Hall of Science, and the California Science Center.
HRH Prince Charles wrote the forward for the current 3rd Edition, warmly commending it to the reading public. It has been continuously developed since it was first published.

FSTC will coordinate the review of the 3rd Edition and introduce new content too, for the 4th Edition. It is with this initiative that we again seek the help and support of the wider academic community. There are seven sections in the book and we are looking for two reviewers for each section, in order to ensure that alternative perspectives on the content are available and a balanced view achieved. The results of the reviews will be included in the book and, in coordination with the authors, published on our website. The academic community at large will be able to observe the results and assess them openly and provide feedback if they desire. All feedback will be welcome and taken into consideration.
Each reviewer will be acknowledged as a contributor to the 4th edition, if they wish. The selection process for reviewers will commence on 01/08/2013 and complete by 31/08/2013, ready to start the review itself on 01/09/2013, to conclude by 31/12/2013*, ready for publication in early 2014*.
If you are interested in being a reviewer, please email firstname.lastname@example.com. This invitation will also be published on other websites and events, to encourage all our colleagues around the world to become involved.
*Due to demand of reviewers, the dates have been extended. The reviewers will receive modified chapters of edition3 as drafts of edition4 to ease the process. To allow for this process, the dates are now extended by 18 months.

Seahawks rumble past Saints, 23-15
SEATTLE – Marshawn Lynch ran for 140 yards and two touchdowns, Steven Hauschka kicked three field goals in blustery conditions and Seattle's defense flustered Drew Brees and New Orleans in a 23-15 victory Saturday in the NFC divisional playoff game.
The top-seeded Seahawks advanced to the NFC championship game for the second time in franchise history and will host San Francisco or Carolina next Sunday. Seattle last reached the conference title game in the 2005 playoffs.
Seattle shut out the Saints in the first half, got Lynch's first 100-yard game since Week 10 of the regular season and received a spark from the brief return of Percy Harvin before he left with a concussion. Lynch scored on a 15-yard run in the first half and capped the victory with a 31-yard scoring run with 2:40 left that coach Pete Carroll celebrated by jumping into offensive line coach Tom Cable's arms.

|Meridian 861 Upgrade Adds Room Correction
|Monday, 04 August 2003
new Version 4 software, coupled with the new EF20 DSP Card for the
Meridian 861 includes a completely new feature: Meridian Room
Correction. Conventional room equalization systems attempt to simply
invert the room/speaker response – something which cannot be done
accurately and produces undesirable effects such as listener position
dependence, ringing, pre-echo and loss of headroom. Meridian's Room
Correction system, in contrast, relies on controlling room modes at low
frequencies, where room problems are the most noticeable and effective
results can be obtained for a wide range of listening positions. It
should, of course, be remembered that room correction supports, rather
than replaces, good room acoustics.
Meridian Room Correction uses Meridian's on-board DSP (Digital Signal Processing) system to first measure the room and then automatically build a series of digital filters that reduce the reverberation time of significant room modes. As the filters generated are entirely digital in nature they can be created without any artifacts and easily incorporated into the all-digital Meridian signal path. The result is a noticeable improvement in the sound of a room, calming down resonances and smoothing out the acoustic. The measurement of a room's acoustic characteristics is normally difficult to carry out without expensive and complicated software and hardware. With Meridian Room Correction, however, both the measurement and the filter-creation are handled virtually automatically. You just set up a simple measurement microphone – such as a cheap sound-level meter obtained from a local electronics store – in the listening position and plug its output into an analog input on the processor, choose the Room Correction option in the Meridian setup program, and watch as the system performs measurements of each speaker in the room and builds the appropriate filters. Multiple sets of filters can be defined to be associated with different presets for different types of listening.
Along the way, the room correction program develops sophisticated "before and after" "waterfall" plots of the room's frequency response, which can be used to analyze room acoustics and examine the performance of the filters.
In addition, filter information can be displayed, edited and even created numerically or graphically by an installer or advanced user.
In addition to Room Correction, Version 4 software adds a number of other enhancements: Smart Source, which automatically detects a wide range of digital signals and applies the correct decoding, and Meridian and THX post-processing, are now available on all inputs; all presets are now implemented with high-resolution processing and can handle input sampling rates up to 96 kHz; and a new bass protection system has been implemented, incorporating a revised calibration procedure.
Meridian System Software Version 4 has been available since early May for the 861 processor. To utilize the new room correction software, an EF20 DSP card and an analog input, such as is provided on the IA00 analog input card, are required. Both cards are standard in new 861 units. Existing Version 3 861 units can be upgraded by an authorized Meridian dealer, including the addition of an EF20 card and Version 4 software. Earlier units may require a factory upgrade.

China says all OK with U.S.-China sea incident
- Surveillance activities by U.S. boats and planes have sparked tension in the past
- China%27s defense ministry said the Chinese ship was conducting %27routine patrols%27
BEIJING — China on Wednesday said an altercation between a U.S. and a Chinese naval vessel on the South China Sea was handled well despite its initial reaction that the United States was harassing its first aircraft carrier.
China's Ministry of Defense said the Chinese ship was conducting "routine patrols'' when it had a near miss incident with the USS Cowpens on Dec. 5. The Pentagon said its guided missile cruiser was forced into evasive action to avoid a collision.
"During the encounter, the Chinese naval vessel properly handled it strictly in accordance with rules of operation," the defense ministry said, adding that some media reports of the incident were untrue.
The two nations' defense departments "carried out effective communication" and have "good opportunities" for developing Sino-U.S. military ties, said the Chinese statement.
On Monday, the Global Times, a state-run newspaper, said the U.S. vessel "posed a threat to China's military security" and had been "tailing after and harassing" the Liaoning aircraft carrier on its maiden voyage into the South China Sea.
The paper said the Cowpens came within 30 miles of the Chinese squadron that was part of the flotilla, inside what it called its "inner defense layer."
Beijing has claimed it owns the nearly 1 million square mile swath of ocean, a claim that neighboring countries have termed outrageous. The United States say the sea is international and open to all ocean traffic.
Beijing recently declared a new air defense zone over parts of the East China Sea encompassing Japanese-controlled islands claimed by China, prompting heavy criticism and defiance from Washington, Tokyo and others.
During visits this week, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said Washington would provide more than $70 million in security assistance to Vietnam and the Philippines — countries locked in competing claims with China over territory in the South China Sea.
Surveillance activities by U.S. boats and planes have sparked tension in the past.
In 2001, a U.S. EP-3 surveillance aircraft collided with a Chinese fighter jet, killing its pilot, and leading to a tense stand-off for the EP-3's crew who crash-landed in China. In 2009, Washington said five Chinese ships "aggressively maneuvered" close to an unarmed U.S. navy surveillance vessel in the South China Sea.
