I don't necessarily think people have to accept the theory of evolution or the world will end. It doesn't matter to some people where we came from, and that's fine. It does upset me when these people who are very ignorant of not just the theory of evolution (which is the theory that is supported by more disciplines in science than any other out there) but science in general, get in the way of education. Not enough people understand enough about science to make an informed decision. Though the concepts are not hard to grasp and just about anyone should be able to see that Evolution is the best description for the diversity of life, the fact is a great many people just don't care enough to find out. An other thing that bothers me is these people who do know a little bit about science and how it works, who help perpetuate the ignorance towards evolution, like all the people at the discovery institute.Moonwood the Hare wrote:Found a link to this from Victor Reppert's blog. thought you guys might be interested. http://www.theatlantic.com/national/archive/2012/06/creationists-vs-evolutionists-an-american-story/258384/

If they keep pushing this bullshit argument that evolution and science means that Christianity is wrong and/or God does not exist the only result will be that evolution and science loses credibility. The argument is not only just plain wrong but it doesn't accomplish anything good whatsoever.
[Update, 6/12, 10:30 a.m.: Some commenters have convinced me that, in saying that people like Dawkins and Myers "violated the nonaggression pact," I made the violation sound more unilateral than it was. I don't doubt that some creationists had already amped up their assault on the curriculum (and sometimes succeeded not just in a formal sense but more subtly). Still, my main points are (1) even if this is what provoked Dawkins, Myers, et. al., their gratuitously insulting reaction (IMHO) was still counter-productive, fueling the anti-evolutionism fires; (2) their reaction may well have abetted anti-scientism in areas unrelated to evolution, such as climate change.]
But I do think that if somebody wants to convince a fundamentalist Christian that climate scientists aren't to be trusted, the Christian's prior association of scientists like Dawkins with evil makes that job easier.
Keep The Reason wrote:Evolution does pretty much put the kibosh on Christianity's literal claim that we are born sinful. The story of "man's fall" did not happen; it's not how humanity was brought into being, and without sin, we have no need for a savior.
We're not born sinful, we're born human.
And in order to overcome elements of humanness that we know are troubling, like our innate inclination towards aggression, we have to understand where that aggressiveness comes from. Averring that such tendencies come from something "spiritual" is masking its true source. Christianity as a solution to this problem is indeed, wrong and one has to perform feats of philosophical legerdemain in order to fit the round peg of Christianity into the square hole of reality.
For some people, the solution is to ignore it altogether. They believe Christianity on one side, but recognize evolution on the other and they categorize one away from the other. This is the liberal Christianity we see in many of the posters here who seem to consider Christianity to be somewhere between true and metaphorical.
Then there are those who adopt a literal interpretation, and support the Genesis worldview over the facts (fundies, who everyone like to pretend are an ineffectual minority but while they may be a minority, they certainly are not "ineffectual").
As to "Disproving god", it's agreed by almost everyone that evolution doesn't disprove god or say anything about god one way or the other (only ill-informed theists make this claim). No one of note in the atheist camp says it does -- not Dawkins, not PZ Meyers, not Dennett, not Hitchens, not Harris, etc. But "not disproving god" is completely different from saying "Slays Christianity". Evolution slays Christianity because we evolved, we weren't created perfect from a perfect being and then fell into sin therefore we need a savior.
No, we do not. We need to do the work ourselves and continue to evolve.
Moonwood the Hare wrote:I think the most evolution can be said to have done is to make it necessary to question some aspects of the teaching of St. Augustine or possibly of some interpretations of Augustine.
Not sure why you think these are alternatives.
I can see the advantage of an evolutionary understanding of our aggression but I'm not really sure what you mean by spiritual. What you seem to be saying is that the theory of evolution is incompatible with some kind of disembodies neo-platonic idea of spirituality
Can't speak for anyone else but for me true and metaphorical are not alternatives - so I see Christianity as true and metaphorical.
Most fundamentalists are not really literalist, in many ways they do not take the Bible very literally at all. Certainly they read it any a very odd, very modern way.
And of course Genesis does not say anything about people being created perfect and the need for a saviour does not derive from this supposed perfection. I think the problem hear KTR is that like many 'Fundamentalists' the only theological views you are really aware of are Fundamentalist ones and you slap the one size fits all label liberalism on anything that is not fairly extreme fundamentalism.
Keep The Reason wrote: My concern is with the theocrats. Whatever your interpretations of Christianity are, as long as they don't drive towards theocracy, I'm not going to argue with you about it anymore.
Moonwood the Hare wrote:Keep The Reason wrote:We're not born sinful, we're born human.

Keep The Reason wrote:Moonwood the Hare wrote:Anyone on this site advocating theocracy? If not not sure why Keep the Reason is bothering to argue with us instead of spending his time on a Reconstructionist site.
I like some of you.
What makes you think I'm not on other sites?
Moonwood the Hare wrote:Well at any rate I've never advocated theocracy and I've never seen anyone here advocate that. Of course the reconstructionists would say they don't advocate theocracy either but they come a lot closer to it than anyone here. I certainly don't seem myself as a theological liberal. I see myself as a theological conservative. Politically I'm a liberal small l.
The thing with metaphorical language - I can't see why you don't get it. Do you see what I did? Was I telling the truth about what I think?
Moonwood the Hare wrote:Almost all language is metaphorical to some extent this does not mean we spend our time lying or making meaningless statements. Certainly all the language the Bible uses to talk about God is metaphorical or at least I can't think of a single exception to that. Sometimes theology uses very abstract technical language which has been developed for a specific purpose but even then that is often used alongside metaphor. So the idea that Christians used to take their beliefs very literally and then sometime in the 19th Century some of them stopped doing that and started using the language metaphorically is a myth. So if say you were to ask me do you think the virgin birth really happened or is it just a metaphor I would feel comfortable saying both. The Church Fathers say both - they believe it literally and see its metaphorical significance. As a bare event it would have no significance at all. Someone was born without a father, surprising but so what. The inability of say Richard Dawkins to understand such subtelties is demonstrated by his hilarious nonsence about the fatherless man. He takes a story about a man who had God as his father, a powerful myth, and interprets it as a story about a man who had no father.
Let me take another example. We are told that when Jesus died blood and water came from his side. This may have described what literally happened although the exact medical cause will remain unknown but for John who records it it seems to have a deeper significance. St Augustine develops this by seeing the water and blood as symbols of baptism and communion which may be what John had in mind but also sees a parallel with the Church the bride of Christ founded on the sacraments being taken from the side of Christ as Eve was taken from the side of Adam. Again a powerful myth. Then in the age of science someone decided to do some experiments on animals to see if he could find what happened and found that the blood of dying animals divedes in that way when they are under extreme stress and that it is evidence of death. Very prosaic and perhaps even true. Someone else then noted that this would mean quite literally that Christ died of a broken heart. It's as if having demythologised the story people had to remythologse it to make it work.

Bre Johnson, a former Calhoun High standout, continued her big day collecting three hits and a pair of RBI's in the second game to lead the Lady Hawks (3-1) past the Mars Hill team that handed Shorter the 3-1 loss on Saturday.
Johnson drove in her first run in the opening inning, scoring Felicia Morris to put the Lady Hawks ahead early. Morris had doubled two batters earlier as part of a two hit day for the junior.
Morris scored again in the third inning when Whitney Hood picked up the RBI on a bases loaded single.
Mars Hill (5-2) finally got on the score board in the third when Megan Arrington scored with two outs on a Robyn Stanek single.
The Lady Hawks erupted for three runs in the seventh with runs scored by Kendall Johnson, Jackie Castaneda, and Bre Johnson.
The middle of the line up – Morris, Castaneda, and Bre Johnson – tallied seven of the Lady Hawks ten hits while accounting for three of the four RBI's and four of the five runs. The Lady Hawks stole three bases with Castaneda and the Johnson's.
Christina Ezell pitched the complete game, striking out seven over seven innings while allowing just the one run to score to pick up her second win on the season.
The Lady Hawks will be part of the UNA Invitational from the campus of North Alabama, where they will play six games in three days, this upcoming weekend.
In the game earlier in the day:
Shorter 3, Armstrong Atlantic 2
SAVANNAH — The Shorter softball team grabbed the second victory in two days versus No. 20 Armstrong Atlantic, defeating the Pirates in extra innings, 3-2.
The Lady Hawks (2-1) got on the scoreboard first in the home half of the second inning when Bre Johnson led the inning off with a solo homerun to left center field.
No scoring occurred until the top of the seventh when the Pirates Ashley Schwab scored three batters after reaching on a fielder's choice to tie the game, 1-1.
Shorter was unable to score in the bottom of the inning, bringing on international tie breaker rules – each team starts their inning with a runner on second base.
Armstrong Atlantic (9-2) plated their run when Andrea Dalton dropped a sacrifice bunt with the runner on third to move ahead, 2-1.
Kayla Byrom retired the next two batters to send the game to the bottom of the eighth with the Lady Hawks down by a run.
The home half of the inning lasted one batter as Kendall Johnson launched a 2-run home run to right center field giving the Lady Hawks the walk off 3-2 victory in eight innings.
The Lady Hawks managed six hits off of Pirate pitching, with Kayla Cooper twice reaching on a hit. Maddie Bray pitched seven innings while allowing only the one unearned run while striking out one batter.
Byrom came into the game and pitched one inning in relief to pick up the victory.

- of what exactly has been stressing us out and keeping us in suspense.
(I also don't want anyone to get the wrong impression about how we are as a couple ;) )
Image |
(In brief we moved over here for the money, so we could afford to live on one income while I stay home with the kids & he is currently working away doing a 4 year electrical apprenticeship. So we've been staying in and 'surviving' the working away lifestyle for that - to get his trade certificate!).
I went on to share how I was with it all - I was a bit of a mess at the time really,
I think you'll agree!
Image |
But I am so relieved to say that I'm not that same mess today!!!
Shortly after writing that post, as part of my 'survival plan' as you will, I finally gave in to my resistance and I went on anti-depressants/anti-anxiety meds.
They helped. Big time!
So much so that I thought I was ready to come off them before I actually was.
Bad idea!
As it stands today (although things can change - don't get me started on that fact!) Neil is scheduled to finish his apprenticeship in February.
After Christmas he has 3 more weeks working away and then he comes home to sit his exams.
Then we get to choose whether he continues to work away or not.
That means that the end is in sight folks - it is so close that we can actually reach out and touch it!
We couldn't be more excited!
So with this in mind, and the fact that I have been doing really well in myself recently, the Monday before Christmas I came off the meds again. And this time I'm pretty sure it will be for real.
So far so good anyway.
Many would lecture me that it was completely bonkers to go off my meds just before Christmas. And they would probably be right. But for me it was the perfect time...
** I am on holiday, ** I have no pressures, ** Mr Flutter is home,
** It is summer. - According to my doctor that in itself makes a big difference.
** And I have so much to look forward to in the coming year to hopefully keep me on track if I falter.
So I did. I came off them. And apart from the physical withdrawals for the first few days, (making me feel giddy, nauseous, tired and yuck), it hasn't been too bad. Dragon Mumma has had her moments in the limelight, but luckily they've been fleeting... And pretty manageable.
Insecure Mumma has also had her moments. But lets face it, that's life. And besides, she never really was far away while on the meds anyway...
So what is the point of telling you all this?!
The point is that this *almost finish* comes with it's own questions and quandries.
NOW we get to decide what to do next...
Image |
Does he move to another company on a short & family friendly fly-in-fly-out roster??
Does he try and find a job locally??
Or the big one - now we will soon have no ties to Perth, do we actually want to stay here and get settled in for the long haul, or is it time to move back closer to one of our family's?!
Not much to think about at all really, is there?
Image |
- we aren't in a position to make any decisions yet, we can still only wonder!
February may be so close that we can almost reach out and touch it, but there is still January standing in the way!
So all we can do for the moment is send these scenarios
around and around and around and around and around
in our poor tired brains and exhaust every idea humanly possible.
(Exhausting it really can be!)
And pray.
So there you have it, that is our journey.
So close, yet still so far.
But the main factors are at least now there;
I am good mentally, he is good mentally and we couldn't be better together.
The rest will come.
We just have to be patient.
Never.ever. my strong suit!!
Wish us luck...

At the time, these were two of the five corporations in the American Atheists family of corporations.
After the O'Hairs were murdered in September of 1995, the Board of Directors took over the role of running the organization. Neal began serving the organization as the National Outreach Director in 1996, and held that position through 2001. During Neal's tenure as National Outreach Director, he headed the American Atheists Volunteers, and organized a new national system of State Directors geared toward Atheist activism. Neal wrote the "American Atheists Activists Handbook" and the "State Director Handbook." As National Outreach Director, he also began the annual American Atheists Letter to the Editor Competition in 2000, and ran it through 2010.
When all five corporations of American Atheists merged into American Atheists, Inc. in 2009, Neal began serving on the Board of Directors of American Atheists, Inc. and has been Chairman of the Board since then.

The child, Elijah Diamond, 8, was struck by a car around 9 p.m. Sunday night as he was walking his bike off the roadside on Jefferson Street, said Cedartown Assistant Police Chief Jamie Newsome.
Darius Jamal Strong, 22, of Irwin Street, Cedartown, was booked Monday morning around 2 a.m. with charges of serious injury by vehicle, reckless driving and leaving the scene of an accident, according to Newsome.
Strong could face additional charges, he said.
Newsome said a preliminary investigation indicates that Strong was driving down Jefferson Street when he allegedly left the road, struck Diamond and fled the scene.
The Cedartown Fire Department, police and EMS responded. Diamond was airlifted to an Atlanta hospital where Newsome said he had surgery to repair a severely broken leg.
The child had to have a rod put in his leg but should recover, he said.
Cedartown police asked the Georgia State Patrol (GSP) to investigate the incident scene while city officers looked for the driver, according to Newsome.
Officers soon found the car believed to be involved abandoned at the dead end of Davenport Street. A police check revealed the car belonged to Strong.
"Several of our officers knew Mr. Strong and started going to places he might frequent," Newsome said.
He said Strong heard police were looking for him, so he called the station and turned himself in.

Gary Gygax (1938-2008)
Gaming visionary Gary Gygax, co-creator of the Dungeons and Dragons universe, passed away on Tuesday, March 4th, 2008. He was 69. Gygax is credited as the father of role-playing games (RPGs), but D&D's influence has permeated almost every genre of gaming since it was first published in 1974. Perhaps what's most remarkable about the game is that, in its basic form, D&D is only a set of rules and suggestions. The creative aspects of the game are left in the hands of the players. With only a few multi-sided dice, a pencil, and some graph paper, D&D players devise fantastic worlds, develop complex characters, and engage in dynamic group experiences. The imaginative agency provided by the game and its participatory nature may be its greatest contribution to the foundations of contemporary game design. Video games have been particularly inspired by D&D, as many of the designers and coders behind some of the most important titles in video game history grew up rolling a 20-sided die. It's hard to imagine the existence of Richard Allen Garriott's Ultima series, Hironobu Sakaguchi and Yoshitaka Amano's Final Fantasy series, or Blizzard's World of Warcraft without the game play mechanics established in D&D. Even the internet itself owes a little bit to Gygax. From late-70's MUDs to the massively multiplayer online games of today, the development of networked, D&D influenced RPGs has both paralleled and pushed the development of the web towards creativity and collaboration. Artists such as Brody Condon have translated the form of role-playing to the gallery. For Untitled War (2004), Condon invited twelve warriors to fight until their "death" at the Los Angeles space Machine Project. The taxing two hour long performance, accompanied by the music of the Winks ...

My copy of Rite arrived today. It's *gorgeous* and I love it very dearly already.I foresee a lack of sleep in my immediate future.
Cool Miiru!*looks at empty mailbox*Yalahii.
Have ours further to go than the other side of the world, maybe they're just going that way round, in which case I'll get mine just after Sahi. Miiru, did you get a email or something saying it was on its way?
I did not; my only warning was tripping over the package when I walked in the door the other day.Maybe I'm an anomaly.
Also, the first person to crack a bad joke about that gets teeth in their throat. Just sayin'. :D
I didn't have any warnings about the other two books SP sent me either.Yalahii.
I've just had a phonecall from my wife who asked when I ordered the expensive book!Whohoo, shame I'm not home until Thursday night.It must be 9 months since I first ordered it.
I can happily report that my copies of RITE have safely arrived this afternoon!
Me too! Shiny.
Oh, I received something by mail yesterday alright. E-mail.My order was cancelled.... W T F?
O.oWTF indeed. Did they give any reason? I recently had an amazon order cancel because the card I used to place the order changed the expiry date before the order was processed.It's just a matter of changing my info, fortunately. I really ought to go do that...
Yesterday when I came home I found a note that they had tried to deliver some package at my place, only we weren't at home. If I'm lucky the mailman will come before two today, cause then Ivo is still at home...Yalahii.
No, I don't think it was my cc info, I've ordered from the store before (libri.de) and it was never a problem. I'll have to check my account statements though cause I'm pretty sure I already paid back in October... maybe they couldn't uphold the reservation or something? I really have no clue. Well. I'll see where my money went and then I'll order it from amazon, pah.
I received my Limited copy, but not the lettered copy. I wondered when it will come.In any case, what a splendid surprise. I thought, "What the hell have I ordered recently?"The answer, of course, was nothing. I ordered these books a LONG time ago. :)Fun fun.
I also received the limited edition, but not the lettered.
If I'd ordered the lettered edition, well I'd rather not think about what would have happened, though I'm sure it's an excellent collectors piece and probably a wise investment.
This can be ordered from amazon, too, correct? Same book?
I suspect the Lettered copies weren't sent via the US Post Office, and they'll be arriving by UPS or FedEx or DHL or something similar.Just a thought. And a hope.
I received my copy! We came home around five and were surprised not to find a note from the mail man. But then our neighbor rapped on the window and gave it to me! (It had been delivered to her in our absence.)Yalahii.
Evidently Amazon.com is holding my copy hostage. I pre-ordered, but they are saying mine won't ship until March even though they also state on their website they have at least 3 left in stock.Needless to say, there was much ranting at Amazon.com for this inconsistency.
I ordered a copy, today, and Amazon (.ca) said it'll be here in four to six weeks.Ah, well, so long as it gets here. :)
Jendaiya, they might be telling you falsehoods. After emailing Amazon, guess what I found in my email 24 hours later? The email saying they had shipped my request and another email apologizing for the delay, though with a back handed attempt in blaming me. They can blame me all they want, I just want my copy of Rite so I can read it.
Wow. I'm glad I ordered from Subterranean Press, if that's the case with Amazon...
Opened my package, inside which was a bubble wrap envelope, inside which was a plastic envelope, inside which was a shiny new copy of Rite. First time I've seen Tad's signature, cool.Now am I prepared to soil it with my unworthy eyes and fingers; before Lily gets it with Jam or leaves a lollipop on it!
I asked Subterranean Press, when the lettered ed. might shipp. That will take another 3 or 4 months since the traycases are not finished yet.

There is NO Google Duplicate Content Penalty
There still seems to be a lot of misunderstanding about Google's "duplicate content penalty"; so much so that I felt the need to help clear the confusion.
For Internet Marketers there are a lot of good reasons to have duplicate, or mostly duplicate, content.
There are articles to publish at the social media and content sharing sites in support of a specific marketing campaign.
There are sales and squeeze pages that are targeted to different audiences.
There are even content in different languages.
But there is this fear of Google penalizing you for duplicate content, maybe even going so far as removing your Web pages from their search results.
Simply, that is untrue.
Why do I say that?

As you have probably noticed by now Facebook is making a big change to the way we use our business pages. On March 30, 2012 Facebook's new Timeline will be in full effect for both personal and business pages.
The most obvious new feature of Timeline is the Cover Photo, it's a BIG change that takes over some valuable real estate. Facebooks' grand plan of incorporating such a large image into the top of the layout has resulted in post content being moved a long way down the page, this will be giving our scrolling fingers an extra workout as well. I personally find the change questionable for a number of reasons, but Timeline does have some features that will actually help you promote your business to your audience, and it certainly opens up a new playground for page creativity.
What you need to know
Cover Photo
Your Cover Photo is the first impression visitors receive – it COUNTS! Basic rules of thumb – make sure you upload an image here that is sized correctly. There isn't a better way to say your business lacks professionalism than having a pixelated image stretched across your business page. Make sure you use an image editing program like Photoshop to size your image or graphic correctly.
New Timeline Cover Photo Dimensions
Width: 851 pixels
Height: 315 pixels
There is alot you can do with the cover photo spot – just get creative or hire someone who is. Always think about marketing opportunities, use the space to your advantage and make sure it reflects your companies mandate. However, with that in mind, they are a few things that Facebook says you CANNOT do in the space that are well worth noting.
Facebook has a number of rules regarding the new timeline cover photo:
- You cannot include a website address, email, or information that should go into your pages 'About' section.
- You cannot make references to Facebook features or actions, no "Like us" or "Share us" text, or arrows pointing from the cover photo to any of these features etc. All the fun you had with your welcome pages is over!
- You cannot use the spot to advertise promotions, show pricing, sales, discounts, or call to action type messaging.
- Third-party advertisements on Pages are prohibited. That means you cannot sell that big cover image as advertising space or use it to promote another business.
Now granted there are going to be some grey areas here, and how facebook is going to be able to monitor Cover Photo abuse on the millions of brand pages across the globe I'm not really sure. I've already seen the rules broken a number of times now, it will be interesting to see these pages develop over time.
Profile Picture
Profile pictures have also been resized – getting smaller this time. The days of the long skinny image are over, the new profile pic is square in dimension. This simplifies thumbnails at the same time. Also of note, is that profile pictures now overlap the cover photo – this is a big opportunity to be creative. Have a look around and you'll find some really cool ideas playing on this. I may share a few of the inspired solutions I've personally come across in an upcoming post.
Facebook is asking that your profile picture is uploaded at 180 pixels x 180 pixels which will be automatically scaled down to 160 pixels x 160 pixels.
What else is new?
Milestones let you add important dates from your history to the Timeline. When visitors scroll through your brand page, they can view big achievements or important steps your company has made, instead of just your most recent posts.
You can add when your company was founded, when a new product was launched, moving to a new location, a new employee etc. To add a milestone just click on "milestone" where you would normally post a status update. For your first milestone you'll be prompted to add your companies founded date, after that you can add more custom milestones. Milestones can be pretty much anything, and can include photos, location and an optional 'story' or description. This is where the concept of timeline plays nicely for companies – it's a live company timeline, and can be a nice motivator for small business as well – setting and achieving goals that you can then share with your audience.
Milestone Image Dimensions
Width: 843 pixels
Height: 403 pixels
This new feature is something I didn't even know I needed – but I do! It's a useful feature to help manage pages with alot of user interaction. Often our important posts get pushed down a page when users post to it. Pinning is like sticky tape or more true to it's name – adding a push pin to your post. Pin to top, under the edit pencil icon on your post, makes your post the most recent post until the pin setting is removed. You can tell if your post has been pinned by the little yellow ribbon icon on it's top edge. Pins stay 'Pinned' for seven days, unless unpinned earlier.
Highlighting a post makes it full width. You'll notice pages now have two columns. Recent content is shared across them from top to bottom. Although readers are somewhat programmed to read the left hand column, facebook users are constantly being trained to adapt and will get the hang of reading that right hand side as well. However, you can command an audience to your post by clicking the star icon on your post to highlight it. This will make the post bigger and span it across both columns. As with pinning you can highlight it at anytime. Note, that Pinned posts cannot also be highlighted and vice versa, also be aware that the highlighted image is almost as large as your cover photo and in most cases will pixelate noticably – so highlight with care.
Highlight Image Dimensions
Width: 843 pixels
Height: 403 pixels
Of course there are a number of other new features timeline brings with it, including the new insights panel. However, the features mentioned here are the bigger more visible changes, and these tips should help get you well on your way to working and promoting your business with Facebooks new Timeline.

I didn't know that - very interesting. Yes, over here such a name change is usually connected to marriage and the decision to change is generally an issue for the woman only - in some instances the man will change his name also, but that's rare. I don't think as a rule there's much confusion between the much softer sibilant of "Miss" and "Ms." (which usually sounds like Miz). "Miss" is certainly a prettier sound.
I wonder if it's really essential for the public to know which name he goes by in private life, if he chooses to use both professionally? It's not really something the publicity department has to tip people off about, and the information would likely surface in interviews.

"Piece of crap"
This is far and away the biggest piece of crap I have ever purchased. Not just heating/cooling. The worst thing I have bought in my entire life. I have owned it for 10 months and had it serviced in 6 of those months.

"Piece of crap"
Firts year : Leak of gas due to pre-assembled part. Second year: Inverter valve malfunction had to replace Third year: Defrost board malfunction Fourth year: Fan cracked ! Yes the freaking fan cracked due to stress and metal fatigue. Unit is assembled in usa but all parts made in China. Advice: Buy a Carrier or other brand made and assembled in America.

"Defrost board goes bad every year"
We have owned this for 6 years and it's about to get it's 4th defrost board. Warranty has covered the boards but not the labor. This will be the first year (past 5 yr warranty) that the unit isn't under warranty. I guess I will see how much this will cost.

"Zero warranty support"
I am a contractor. The unit appears to have come with the wrong piston in the outdoor unit. Nowhere online does Haier have a tech support number and their manuals do not have the necessary information. Good thing the homeowner doesn't need it fixed now, because by the time we find who sold this thing, they would be without heat for 2 weeks. This is the only system I know of actually made in China. What happens when a compressor dies and they do not have parts?

"Make sure you have a reliable installer"
Already had 3 fans replaced. One out of the box was bad, second about a year later, third this (2011) summer. Luckily, the installer is a stand up guy and he comes and replaces them when they go out. I would stay away from this brand.

"Nothing but trouble!!!!!"
Heat pump was installed when I bought my town home in 2006 I needed repairs made every year!! Last summer the condensor was replaced and now the outdoor unit is not defrosting properly which means more $$$ out of my pocket. Do not buy this brand because you will regret it unless you are a builder or contractor trying to cut corners to save a buck and don't care about your reputation.

Bought new home with Haier systems already installed. The system for the main living area has been replaced twice-both the outside units and the air handlers. Never heated or cooled well. Never cooled to below 78 on a 85 degree day. Need heat strips operating to heat. Now the system's compressor will not come on. Unit is only 4 years old. I have had it with this Chinese junk.

Afton Alps to be sold to Vail Resorts
Afton Alps is being purchased by the operators of one of North America's most well-known skiing destinations, officials announced today.By: Mike Longaecker, Woodbury Bulletin
Afton Alps is being purchased by the operators of one of North America's most well-known skiing destinations, officials announced today.
According to a news release, Vail Resorts, Inc., has entered into agreements to buy Afton Alps and a ski resort in Michigan for a combined $20 million.
The buyer plans to "upgrade and enhance" the skiing experience at Afton Alps and at Mount Brighton, Mich.
Part of the acquisition strategy appears to be an effort to drive ski trips to Vail and other ski areas owned by the operator. The release states Vail Resorts will "create opportunities" to connect Midwest skiers to its seven other resorts in Colorado and Lake Tahoe via season passes and lift-ticket products.
"These acquisitions are part of a new strategy for Vail Resorts to drive season pass sales and build broader guest loyalty by looking at premier smaller ski areas located near major urban markets," said Rob Katz, chairman and CEO of Vail Resorts. "We plan to bring state-of-the-art racing, terrain parks, coaching and technology to the guest experience."
According to the release, Vail Resorts plans to redesign Afton's terrain park, enhance coaching and instruction, as well as improving racing programs and on-site amenities.
The release states that Afton Alps is the largest ski area near a major metropolitan area in the Midwest. The ski area, which includes 48 trails on 300 acres, has been operated by the Augustine family and is nearing its 50th anniversary.
"Afton Alps' great terrain and strong heritage built by the Augustine family make it an ideal ski area for our entry into the Minneapolis-St. Paul market," Katz said.
Vail Resorts operates ski areas around the country including the Colorado resorts of Vail, Beaver Creek, Breckenridge and Keystone.

Dallas police arrest man for capital murder of The Colony woman found dead in burning vehicle (updated)
By Marthe Stinton, firstname.lastname@example.com
Editor's Note: This article was originally posted at 2:04 p.m. Dec. 21. It has been updated to include information regarding the arrest of Mark Edwin Guida.
At 8:20 p.m. Thursday, Dallas police responded to a call at 2100 Manana Drive regarding a deceased person who has since been identified as Jerie McCloud, 36, of The Colony.
Dallas firefighters had been dispatched to an incident regarding a vehicle fire. When that fire was extinguished, McCloud's body was found inside the vehicle.
The warrant accuses Guida, 43, of choking McCloud before setting the vehicle on fire with her body inside it. The mother of three was last seen by her children the night before her body was discovered.
According to the arrest affidavit, McCloud and Guida had dated for nearly four years before moving in together about 10 days before she was found dead. The affidavit states Guida moved in with McCloud because of financial difficulties.
Guida is currently being held in Dallas County Jail.
The warrant also states that McCloud's children told police that their mother and Guida had been arguing the night before. When they woke the next morning, McCloud was gone and Guida was preparing them for school, something they said was very unusual. When they arrived home from school on Thursday, Guida told them their mother was at work, also unusual given her Monday, Wednesday, Friday work schedule.
Officers followed up on Guida's claims and found that McCloud had not been in the office that day. It was also found that on the day of the offense, Guida purchased two red one-gallon gas cans and two gallons of gasoline at a RaceTrac in Carrollton.
When detectives asked Guida about his purchase, he refused to answer further questions and requested an attorney.
"Dallas PD executed a search warrant at the victim's house with our agency's assistance," said Darren Brockway, PIO for The Colony PD. "Another search warrant was executed at a residence in Austin Ranch, which appears to be related to the suspect."

Catholic Bishops Fund Abortion
Catholic bishops nationwide are asking their flocks to fund an organization that promotes abortion, homosexuality, radical feminism, and a number of other liberal, anti-Catholic issues. This weekend marks the annual fundraising drive in parishes across the country for the Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD), the charitable arm of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). The purported mission of the CCHD is to fight poverty, but a recent exposé by Bellarmine Veritas Ministry (BVM) revealed that the CCHD has for years been funneling grant money to leftist organizations.
HHS Promotes Embryo Donation
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has recently awarded $2.18 million in grants to launch a public awareness campaign about embryo donation and adoption. The organizations receiving portions of the grant money are Baptist Health Foundation, Nightlight Christian Adoptions, the National Embryo Donation Center (NEDC), Bethany Christian Services, RESOLVE Inc., and Rosenberg Communications. Embryo donation is a process whereby a woman donates her unused embryos after she becomes pregnant by in-vitro fertilization (IVF). The donated embryos can then be adopted by another woman who also undergoes IVF and raises the child as her own.
Islamic Prayer Scheduled on Capitol Hill
A mosque in Elizabeth, New Jersey, is planning to host a "Day of Islamic Unity" on Friday, September 25 outside the Capitol Building in Washington, D.C. Billed as the first event of its kind, the occasion is described by organizers as prayer for Muslims and friends of Islam.
Fla. Teachers Found Not Guilty of Criminal Prayer
Two high school administrators from Florida are likely thanking God today since a federal judge found them not guilty of criminal contempt charges on Thursday.
Inside the Texas Textbook Controversy
The Texas State Board of Education (SBOE) is embroiled in a battle over textbook content that, media reports claim, could dictate public school curricula nationwide. As the single largest textbook purchaser in the country, Texas is a major decision-maker regarding content of books available on the market, since publishers naturally cater to their most lucrative client. Republicans on the SBOE have made headlines in recent months overturning what they call a "subtle trend" toward liberalism and negativity about America in the high school social studies curriculum.
Texas Textbook Massacre
New textbook standards approved in Texas are poised to revolutionize public-school curricula nationwide, and liberal educators are furious. Every year the Texas State Board of Education revises a particular subject curriculum, outlining rules that school districts must follow in purchasing teaching materials with state money. Since Texas is the single largest purchaser of textbooks in the country, it holds sway over content of books available on the market to all states.
U.S. Judge Grants Asylum for Homeschooling Family
A German homeschooling family is safe on United States soil now that a federal judge has granted them political asylum. Immigration judge Lawrence O. Burman announced his decision on Tuesday in Memphis, Tennessee, according to a press release issued by the Home School Legal Defense Association (HSLDA). The family applied for political asylum because the government of Germany would not let them homeschool their children.
Obama's EEOC Attacks School's Religious Liberty
The president of a small Catholic college in North Carolina is in a standoff with the Obama administration's Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) over demands that the school must offer contraception coverage in its employee health insurance. Belmont Abbey College President William K. Thierfelder says he will shut down his school before doing so, citing the Catholic Church's prohibition on contraception and First Amendment religious liberty rights.

West Indies will rise to the top again
Why you say ?
Well two reasons - after many, many years - there are numerous promising fast bowlers in the region now. Roach, Delorn Johnson, Jason Holder, Jason Dawes, Carlos Braithwaite, Beaton , Jermain Jones, Kevin Mclean. At the u-19 wc, the West Indies quicks terrified the Aussie batsmen - was just like the 80's and 90's. Teams with strong fast bowlers tend to well. Barring Australia, I don't see anyone else with good fast bowling depth. South Africa haven't go anyone quick in their domestic setup barring marchant de Lange. England forget it and Pakistana re not producing the quicks they used to. Second, Julian Hunte has put in a very good program of governance for West Indies cricket. West Indies have a regular A team program and their SAGICOR High Performance Centre is right up there with Australia's academy in quality. Australia's greatest fear is on the rise again - a RESURGENT West Indies. A lot of sleepless nights coming up for Ikki, Burgey and Social I say.

Windies may rise again but not due to any of those factors the main reason that could lead to their resurgence is the IPL money involved in the game. Many promising athletes who started deserting cricket at a young age for american sports may start coming back to the game there is a reason that Windies have not produced many tall fast bowlers, recently all the tall guys are quickly attracted towards basketball now they may start giving cricket more of a chance if they are good at it

Windies Bangers and NZ all have passengers in their teams. WI would need to produce about 4 test quality players in addition to what they already have to get rid of the poor players.

About ten years ago now my friend went back home to the Caribbean and I didn't see him for a few years - when I did see him again this cropped up in conversation and he said that having been back in the islands the idea was total bollocks. He reckoned, though he always did like to be controversial (he was a big Trade Union man on the railways when the NUR had some power to wield), that the basketball story was put about by the WICB to cover up the fact that the coaching system had been so neglected it had all but withered and died - he thought they were a disgrace and that the game was on its last legs out there. Since then we've kept in touch more thanks to the interweb, and he's still a stroppy **** on the subject of WICB, but he does acknowledge that things are getting better, and that his prognosis five years ago had been a little hasty |

In anycase its stupid when people talk about Windies as a single entity, things are different island to island, including popular sports. Cricket has a big advantage of being the only sport which brings them all together however. Anyway I doubt Windies or any other team is going to recreate the dominance of the late 70s and 80s. Thats not to say they aren't improving

Also I don't think he said they would be as good as their dominant years. It seems like a number of teams have risen to the top in the last little while of cricket here in the test rankings. If Narine ends up with an average of 20 and like I said they get another 4 test standard players - with one of them being a star then they have a chance. |

What are "typedef"s in C++ really used for or necessary for?
Posted 03 January 2012 - 08:19 AM
I know enough to do what I can for now, but I never really understood, even after reading, or saw an overall point as to why, what or how exactly typedefs really do anything useful or are necessary for anything in the first place.
Maybe it's just me unable to understand how a typedef may shape something better, but I seriously see no absolute use in it whatsoever.
Posted 03 January 2012 - 09:44 AM
Apart from that, they're pretty much sugar in c++.

I do agree it can make code abusers more abusive. It's like giving a switchblade-based thief a gun...
Posted 04 January 2012 - 11:37 PM
There are other practical uses for typedefs in addition to short-hand notations. Here are couple:
typedef unsigned uint32;
define policy classes:
struct my_policy
typedef list<int> container;
template<class T> void foo(const T &v_)
typename T::container c;
And you can use function pointers without typedefs:
void foo(int) {}
Cheers, Jarkko
Posted 05 January 2012 - 04:39 AM
I now know that a typedef is 100% officially useless now(to me).
Posted 05 January 2012 - 02:47 PM
int may be 8 , 16, 32, 64, 128, or N bits in length, you cannot assume it's 32 bits.
so having a little header file with
#if defined( __64__)
typedef int bigint;
#elif defined(__32__)
typedef long bigint;
#error no idea how big the cpu is
and then using bigint in all your code is a real lifesaver.

Please take your FUD elsewhere. C++ is not C# or Java, and the C++ type system is exponentially more complex than those other languages. Also, you're just plain wrong. A feature similar to typedefs exists in C#:
using FooList = List<foo>;
Typedefs can actually help make your code more readable, especially when dealing with lots of nested templates. They're not meant to make your code shorter, and if you do use them for that purpose you're just misusing them.
As for whether you actually *need* them, if you work with elaborate template frameworks you actually do. They are used to define type traits (see STL iterators and allocators for example - you can define an allocator that defines a pointer to T to be something other than simply a T*). Or, if you create crossplatform code, a type might be different on each platform, so typedefs are useful there as well.
But I guess you're that wiseass that defines your function returning a pointer to another function as:
int (*MyFuncThatReturnsFuncPtr(int, float)) (const char *); // rather than typedef int MyFuncSignature(const char*); MyFuncSignature* MyFuncThatReturnsFuncPtr(int, float);
Yeah, the first one is way more readable! </sarcasm>

Posted 06 January 2012 - 12:34 AM
To each his own, I don't see how one is more readable than the other. C# uses delegates which supposedly have some advantages over function pointers.
- Delegates are similar to C++ function pointers, but are type safe.
- Delegates allow methods to be passed as parameters.
- Delegates can be used to define callback methods.
- Delegates can be chained together; for example, multiple methods can be called on a single event.
- Methods don't need to match the delegate signature exactly. For more information, see Covariance and Contravariance
- C# version 2.0 introduces the concept of Anonymous Methods, which permit code blocks to be passed as parameters in place of a separately defined method.

Everybody should just use <cstdint>, then we can all live in peace
One thing I personally use typedefs for, is for my resources. Instead of havig to write Resource<Texture> or Resource<Model> or Resource<etc.>, I typedef them to RTexture and RModel respectively. Less typing = faster coding.
They can also be used to easily attach information to values:
// Unknown unit float getDistance(Position p); // Same type, but now we know the unit typedef float meters; meters getDistance(Position p);

In my system int is not a valid data type.
I have KDint64,KDint32, KDint16,KDint8 etc. but no int.
So my alternatives are...
1) Go through every line of code changing the variables
2) Use a global find and replace
3) use typedefs.
No brainer really

Nokia, Page 87 ▼
Nokia is a Finnish communications company that was the largest phone vendor (per unit) between 1988 to 2012. The company's history go back to 1871 but the Nokia that we know today (the Nokia corporation) was founded in 1967 by the merger of three Finnish companies. It is then that Nokia worked on networking equipment and was ultimately involved in the launch of the first cellular network in 1981 (Mobira Oy). Nokia because a key developer of GSM, the standard that we all know today. Although Nokia still produces a range of phones that includes entry-level handsets and Symbian smartphones, the company is counting on the Windows Phone OS to regain the share that it once had. The current flagship Windows Phone device from Nokia is the Lumia 920.
