It Saved My HairI have relaxed, 4b/c hair that was severely damaged from relaxer overlap, direct heat abuse, and dryness. With weekly treatments of this product (and other healthy hair practices) until I finished the bottle, my hair made a complete 360. I recommend it to anyone with damaged hair. You will notice a difference with weekly treatments by the time you finish the bottle. But the rest of your regimen must be beneficial for your hair as well.Jan 20, 2009Cheezi / The Sandbox

Love The Entire Line...I have naturally kinky, coily hair that is prone to split ends and dryness. I use the Aphogee treatment like four times a year, the reconstructor once a month, and the green tea spray when I straighten my hair. Since I have started using this line my hair is stronger and healthier, and as an added bonus all the rest of my products work even better. I am looking foward to trying other products from this line in the future.Jan 30, 2008Ericka B. / Norfolk, VA

Minister Glover asks the question to New Brunswick's Francophone and Acadian communities
MONCTON, NB, March 22, 2014 /CNW/ - Shelly Glover, Minister of Canadian Heritage and Official Languages, conducted consultations in Moncton today to seek the views of New Brunswick's Francophone and Acadian communities on how they would like to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Confederation. Meanwhile, all Canadians can have their say by completing an online questionnaire at Canada.ca/150.
Quick Facts
- Since December 2013, the Government of Canada has held 18 roundtables all across the country on the celebrations in 2017. Numerous people who are active in their communities and represent a wide range of organizations or groups were able to make their voices heard.
- More than 8,000 Canadians have already completed the online questionnaire on Canada's 150th anniversary.
- The data collected will provide insight into the types of activities and projects that resonate most with Canadians and will help us plan the celebrations.
- Over the next three years, as we approach the anniversary, we will celebrate key historic milestones that have defined our country.
"The 150th anniversary of Confederation will be a golden opportunity to celebrate our French-speaking communities across the country. I urge New Brunswick's Francophone and Acadian communities to tell the government how they want to celebrate their history, their values, and their traditions with all Canadians."

- Brief Synopsis:
- In this penultimate novel, Perrin must master the wolf within him, or lose himself to it forever, Mat leads an expedition to rescue Moiraine from the Snakes and Foxes, and Rand faces a confrontation with Egwene over his plan to break the remaining seals on the Dark One's prison.
- Long Synopsis:
- [from inside flaps] "The end draws near.... The Last Battle has started. The seals on the Dark One's prison are crumbling. The Pattern itself is unraveling, and the armies of the Shadow have begun to boil out of the Blight. The sun has begun to set upon the Third Age. Perrin Aybara is now hunted by specters from his past: Whitecloaks, a slayer of wolves, and the responsibilities of leadership. All the while, an unseen foe is slowly pulling a noose tight around his neck. To prevail, he must seek answers in the wolf dream and find a way--at long last--to master the wolf within him or lose himself to it forever. Meanwhile, Matrim Cauthon prepares for the most difficult challenge of his life. The creatures beyond the stone gateways--the Aelfinn and the Eelfinn--have confused him, taunted him, and left him hanged, his memory stuffed with bits and pieces of other men's lives. He had hoped that his last confrontation with them would be the end of it, but the Wheel weaves as the Wheel wills. The time is coming when he will again have to dance with the Snakes and the Foxes, playing a game that cannot be won. The Tower of Ghenjei awaits, and its secrets will reveal the fate of a friend long lost. This penultimate novel of Robert Jordan's #1 New York Times bestselling series--the second of three based on materials he left behind when he died in 2007--brings dramatic and compelling developments to many threads in the Pattern. The end draws near. Dovie'andi se tovya sagain. It's time to toss the dice.

About biographical information
Sum any set of rows by clicking anywhere (not red or blue) on the
first and last rows of your selection. We will then compute the
totals for the player between and including those two seasons.
Default Setting for this feature: Turn On / Turn Off
Summation of season totals only works for the initial case when the table is in year order. On a sorted table the results may get a bit goofy.
HIGHLIGHTING: Adding a range or series of player's career seasons or career game numbers (like '#1972:batting_standard', '#1970-1980-sum:batting_standard', or '#1998,1999,2001,2002,sum:pitching_standard') onto the end of a player page url causes the seasons to the highlighted and summed. After changing address bar, reload the page to see highlighting. This will work even in links e-mailed to others. Note that for tables with multiple pages the first table is the default. If you want to create a sum for a table other than the first one, select the rows and after the summation window appears click on "permanent link" link.

Comments: This shoe seems to love the tails. However I use it for both road and trail and have not had any problems racing on the road with them. I do have ever have to admit that the toe box is tight and takes a little adjusting and wear to break it in about 120-150 miles. That said when it come to trails on race day I switch shoes to the TNF Hayasa II. That shoe is awesome but the tread does where out fast if you run on the road. I've been wearing TNF running shoe for the past ten years still love the product.
From: Sherman, Phoenix, AZ USA. 2/17/14
Comments: Good shoe. Soft enough that you can use it on the road on occasion, rugged enough for trails. Fairly lightweight as well. The only negative I found is that it runs a bit narrow in the toe box, and also has the negative that it runs a bit long. This is problematic as sizing up would make it wide enough, but far too long. I can deal with the snug fit, as I will only use these for the occasional grass or trail run and for running in snowy/icy conditions.

Scotch® Recycled Corrugate Tape 3073 Clear, 48 mm x 100 m, 36 rolls per case Bulk
3M ID 70006714748 UPC# 00051111929001 3M Product Number 3073
Recommended for use on regular slotted containers (RSC) weighing up to 100 lbs.
The average corrugated box consists of 46 percent recycled content, and that number can fluctuate with every box delivery. While conventional box sealing tape uses a stiff adhesive that adheres to the box surface, Scotch® Recycled Corrugate Tape 3073 utilizes a softer synthetic rubber hot melt that actually penetrates the shorter fibers on recycled corrugate, flowing into the hills and valleys of the substrate surface to provide a stronger, more secure hold. In fact, our adhesive is 10 times stickier than other box sealing tapes.
Biaxially-Oriented Backing Resists Abrasion
For additional strength and flexibility, Scotch® Recycled Corrugate Tape 3073 features a biaxially-orientated polypropylene backing that resists abrasion, moisture, chemicals, and scuffing, keeping boxes secure from production line through delivery.
Scotch® Recycled Corrugate Tape 3073 is made with an adhesive that contains over 10% bio-based content. All recycled corrugate tapes use recycled materials in the core to help with sustainability goals.
Scotch® Recycled Corrugate Tapes can be applied by hand for low volume packing with a hand-held tape dispenser or with a 3M-Matic™ Case Sealer for high productivity packing. Meets FDA requirements for indirect food contact.

29 Then I said unto them, What is the high place whereunto ye go? And the name thereof is called Bamah unto this day.
30 Wherefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord God; Are ye polluted after the manner of your fathers? and commit ye whoredom after their abominations?

More than 50 adults and children donned costumes, brought pumpkins and used them as they went through a series of exercises at the Oct. 26 Pumpkin Boot Camp at Arapahoe Community College.
"This is fun," Tammy Moore said as she took part in the event. "I joined the fitness program and lost 60 pounds. It is a great way to make friends and today, I'm just having fun."
This is the seventh year ACC and Camp MisFits has sponsored the event. Those attending were urged to "Be a Rock Star" and some of the costumes include Sonny and Cher and Cyndi Lauper.
Special activities were set up for the children, and each adult was urged to bring a pumpkin weighing six to 10 pounds that would be part of the exercise program. The pumpkins were lifted and swung around during the routines.
Patricia Jackson Peters had the most unusual pumpkin, as hers was in a can.
"I didn't have a pumpkin and the can is light, so it's easier to exercise with," she said. "Besides, I had to be a bit of a smart aleck."

Posted on 07/18/2013 11:17:29 PM PDT by lbryce
DETROITThe city of Detroit filed for federal bankruptcy protection Thursday after decades of decline, a new low for a city that once defined industrial America's might but was hollowed out by the flight of residents and businesses to the suburbs.
The filing by the automobile capital and onetime music powerhousewhich has liabilities of more than $18 billionis the country's largest-ever municipal bankruptcy case.
The move to restructure the debt is bound to set off months, if not years, of legal wrangling, asset sales and cuts to benefits for Detroit workers and retirees, including 20,000 on city pensions. Owners of the city's bonds are expected to battle with retirees and others for pieces of the city's diminished wealth
(Excerpt) Read more at online.wsj.com ...
The city has been living on borrowed money and time for decades. This was going to happen sooner or later. Decades of piss-poor management and the unholy symbiosis between unions and liberal politicians finally, "fundamentally transformed" Detroit.
This city will never recover.
and somehow the commie rats who ran it into the dirt, will blame whitey and republicans for their own 52 years of liberal rule.
Why not give it to Canada.
and they wouldn't be liberals without finding at least one way to blame republicans for their own self-inflicted suicide.
It's like we rearranged the deck chairs and then suddenly the iceberg appears. Not a harbinger of good things to come.
Most of the tax-paying whites moved out, either outside of Detroit or out of state.
Meanwhile, the democrats gained control by default. The black panthers and the SDS absolutely loved it.
You really can't blame whites for leaving, but you can blame the black panthers and their lib-commie friends for willingly instilling fear in the vital portion of the taxpaying public.
The vital public will not move back. Detroit is dead. Even Mo-Town has left.
It is time to turn out the lights and close the door.
Liberals and their black shock-troops have destroyed more cities than nuclear weapons.
Once it was the wealthiest city in America. Socialism crept in and has done what it always does. Made it destitute. Soon this will come to States and then to America completely.
Hey bonehead liberals, you can't borrow money forever. You must at some point pay the piper for the music you've enjoyed.
This is so sad. Sad for those who trusted the unions and the government.
Obama, and Jarret, said, "Nyet!" to a bailout.
Lordy...he does love the citizens of Detroit...doesn't he?
He was bragging about saving it during the last election.
"This city will never recover."
Most likely, neither will America, after a few more years of Obumbo and his band of Dimorats.
Detroit going bankrupt is a function of unsustainable union and pension obligations. Chapter 9 bankruptcy is a great tool to renegotiate those contracts, as happened in Stockton.
Detroit's actually on a rebound, thought it is and does need to shrink. This was a move made by the state-appointed emergency manager because it is the only option that will give him sufficient leverage to renegotiate union deals.
Thanks! I know a bit about bankruptcy, and think you are right. However, it is sad because there are many individuals who will suffer, even though it's their own fault.
I still find that sad, because that's all that they knew.
"Why not give it to Canada."
Depends on how much they charge to haul it away.
detroit is french for "to the right"
what is french for "to the wrong"?
I never put it past God to do wonders. BUT. God needs to be invited into our struggles. God won't barge in without being invited. And to be frank, Christianity (and Judaism) lite failed to prove inviting to the Lord. One way it can be "lite" is to depend more on institutions than upon our private heart obedience, by the way. For example, people complain about the loss of prayer in schools, and that indeed was a loss of a nice thing, but more importantly it was a symptom of a deeper spiritual laxity. The US government was set up to be a mirror of the people and the less trouble the people at large put into keeping the mirror clean and free from graffiti, the dirtier it gets.
I'll bite.
A gauch?
Wrong = faux
mal - bad
mauvaise - worse?
My coonass is rusty. Anyhow, I'm going to bed.
Goodbye Detroit! Hello Defaux! Desinistre?
So is mine, LOL.
This is what being run entirely by Democrats and Unions since 1961 looks like. Sweet, right? Just sit there on that Plantation and don't question when we tell you that this is the best you can get.
Oh, yeah, and be sure to hate Republicans... you know, those guys who died by the millions to free you, then keep your lazy, useless asses free? Yah, they're your real enemy.
You brian-dead, ghetto trash, oxygen-wasting butt-pimples. If you doubt my veracity, just watch one episode of "Hard Core Pawn." It's quite an eye-opener. You'll get it, real quick.
If Obama ran the country will it look like Detroit?
This won't matter to the Detroit populace. They made this city and are responsible for what is has become.
Where's Jesse and Al?
"BUT. God needs to be invited into our struggles."
When I was in public school back in the 50s, we started every morning, taking turns, reading a short bible passage. The Jewish kids would read from the old testament, Christians from the new.
Today, the teachers and every one involved would be thrown in jail for doing that.
They will put Detroit up for sale and China will buy it and open a Chinese industrial complex. watch.............
Detroit fell because of corruption, liberal ideas, and white fools.
town ran by liberals.. BK.. who are they going to blame? they had a free run of that city and no republican had one damn word to say about it.. so liberal policies work?
200 years ago they walked in and took it without a fight.
We should stage a reenactment, and conveniently let them keep it.
Worse. The Federal government has guns and can print money.
Obama: "If I had a home town, it would look like Detroit."
This is a fitting epithet for the city of Detroit. When filling pot holes for 25 years entitles one to retire at age 50, God help us.
The Union Pension Protection Fund, or whatever the real name is, guarantees that you will pay for all the debt that Detroit just defaulted on. Bend over so Obama can smile.
If it's that federal insurance program, it only pays a percentage of the insured pension and their is a maximum that any given retiree can get. In other words, every retiree would take som "bath", but those with the higher pension would see their pension cut by a higher amount & percenctage. This is from my memory only so don't take it to the bank.
You didn't mention forced busing of school children. When children were forced to ride a school bus for 45 minutes each way, rather than walk 5 minutes to a nearby school, parents moved outside the busing zone. And it was the intact families, with tax paying parents, that moved.
When pothole repairmen only have to work 25 years, and can retire at age 50 (meaning he will probably collect a pension for more years than he actually worked) is it any wonder the city is broke?
The critical point in the Detroit bankruptcy is how the Bond Holders are treated. Unless the bonded investments are a guarantee of repayment, Bonds of all municipalities(and state, and federal) are in jeopardy. Easy money to local government will evaporate, and we will see a large increase in the interest rates of those willing to buy bonds, to cover the risk of default. How the courts treat Bond holders will be critical in whether Detroit is the first of many to default or only a local tragedy.
Ya need to talk to "cripplecreek" who IMHO is wired to what is going on behind the scenes. It seems big and smart money is about to buy in low. He will give you the 411 on the Iron Ore and Tar Sands coming to the City via ships, how they will be powered by LPG, Trade and Manufacturing in Canada and a potential Manufacturing back in Detroit with resurgence of a healthy Detroit and how it may become a trading hot spot....
Will the Indians take it back?!?
How do they do that without residents of Detroit becoming citizens of Canada, free to roam their country at will? I assume you're being sarcastic, but selling them the lakeside and the other side of the bridges connecting with Canada, population (what's left of it) moved elsewhere in Detroit would have benefits.
Another idea that comes up every now in then is breaking up these large, dysfunctional cities. Instead, politicians keep coming up with schemes to integrate smaller towns with each other or folded into adjacent cities. Smaller governments work best, as long as they're not starved by all state and federal money going to propping up unsuccessful cities.
Often times, a good idea is just something that starts out silly being twisted and turned a bit. Problem is, no one in charge is dealing with problem-solving anymore.....except for propping up the puppet masters. JMHO
Why did Detroit go bankrupt? Look for the Union Label.
My favorite quip is that at one point MI and OH fought for Toledo....and OH lost.
No it isn't.
Hey, what have we ever done to you?
Keep it!

The Emery County Farm Bureau, a chapter of the Utah Farm Bureau, held their annual soup in a bowl meeting Oct. 28 at the Huntington Senior Citizens Center. This is a local volunteer organization made up of local people who make their living or are associated with the agriculture industry.
Emery County Farm Bureau Pres. Jordan Hatch opened the meeting by introducing guest speakers, Ray Petersen of the Emery County Public Lands Council, David Bailey from the Utah Farm Bureau and Randy Parker, Chief Executive Officer of the Utah Farm Bureau. He also introduced Lori Brady from the United States Department of Agriculture and Farm Service Agency.
Brady explained three USDA farm loan programs with farm loan interest rates as low as 1.5 percent with 5 percent down, she told of the program "Loans for Beginning Farmers and Ranchers".
For a beginning farmer to qualify for this program, the applicant must make a cash down of at least 5 percent. Brady explained that the FSA makes and guarantees loans to family farmers for the purchase of farm land and or the financing of agricultural production.
Petersen from the Emery County Public Lands Council discussed grazing permits and the Bureau of Land Management Resource Management Plan, the comment period of which ended Oct. 29. He expects the RMP will be delivered to Gov. Huntsman for review in November.
Ray told of the history regarding the current RMP from the Richfield BLM office as it relates to Emery and Carbon counties. Several public comment meetings have been held in the counties and the last ended Oct. 29.
Petersen discussed the issues with Wilderness Study Areas, the Wild and Scenic Rivers, and the BLM has designated 97,000 acres of land with wilderness characteristics. He told of plans presented that would allow no grazing, and no gas or oil drilling which were rejected. He explained the problems of drilling in the Nine Mile Canyon and issues with wild horses and burros. He said, "Sixty four percent of Emery County has wilderness characteristics," according to the BLM.
Peterson reviewed the OHV Recreation Route Designation Plan, which allows no cross country travel. There are 670 miles of designated roads for OHV use. The proposed RMP will allow for the continued maintenance of ponds and roads.
Parker, Chief Executive Officer of the Utah Farm Bureau Organization, said he recently met with Gov. Huntsman about the governor ignoring the needs of the agriculture community.
Parker spoke about the energy cost to farmers for fuel and fertilizer and because 85 percent of the Utah population is on the Wasatch front, this urban population allows 2/3 of Utah public lands to be controlled by bureaucrats in Utah and Washington. The environmentalists are funded with millions of dollars from out of state to fight against those who want to use the lands responsibly. Parker noted that the president of the Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance (SUWA) is a Swiss citizen.
He also mentioned that Judge Tina Campbell made a large contribution to the Obama campaign, this judge recently made a ruling that took away some of your property rights.
The Utah Supreme Court in a recent ruling, stated on page 6, "We establish our own rule," this is legislation from the courts, which should be unconstitutional.
In the business meeting of this volunteer organization Jordan Hatch asked David Bailey of the Utah Farm Bureau to display and discuss the Farm Bureau Policy Manual. Bailey working for the Farm Bureau travels 10 counties of Eastern and Southern Utah meeting with farmers and ranchers.
Near the end of this meeting some members were allowed to bring up the issues of how recreation rights seem to supersede property rights, of how the ethanol issue affects the farming community, how there was no good way to dispose of horses, and insurance for crops. These and many other issues farmers and ranchers are interested in were presented and discussed.

Posted on November 1, 2012
As we continue our series of profiles on local genealogical and historical societies, you'll see that many provide monthly newsletters to their members. Some of the societies even publish lengthier "quarterlies".
This is true of genealogical and historical societies around the country. Although some groups have moved to electronic publication and distribution, others still send out paper copies. And generally, the older publications have not been digitized.
What kind of information do the societies publish? Newsletters typically contain the following: details from the last meeting or presentation; information regarding future meetings and special events; society news and updates; and updates on special projects and publications the society may be working on.
Quarterly publications generally contain longer, more formal articles. Often lengthier transcriptions of old newspaper articles, bible records, school graduation lists, etc. will be included. Articles on research by society members, research tips and hints, and profiles of various local research facilities are popular topics as well. These articles may be printed over a series of issues. Some organizations provide an annual index.
Society publications are a goldmine of information for genealogists, but they are often overlooked. Researchers may join their local organizations but for many of us our research criss-crosses the country and our budgets don't allow us to join as many societies as we'd like. So how can you make better use of society publications? While local libraries may have publications from the societies in their area, libraries such as the Newberry have much wider collections. There are several ways to find these resources.
- Check out PERSI (Periodcial Source Index) created by the Allen County Public Library and available online through HeritageQuest and Ancestry.com. The PERSI index lists every article from over 6,500 genealogy and local history publications according to locality, family (surname) and/or research methodology. Each citation includes information about the publisher. (Note - this is an index, not full text of the articles.)
- Search the online library catalog. Quarterlies and newsletters from major organizations are often included in the catalog. If you don't know the exact publication title, try searching by subject. Here are some examples of subject headings: Chicago (Ill.) –Genealogy –Periodicals; Chicago (Ill.) –History –Periodicals; Cook County (Ill.) –History –Periodicals; Cook County (Ill.) –Genealogy –Periodicals
- Smaller, monthly newsletters are not always cataloged. These may be kept in a separate "vertical file" or "newsletter file", and might not be stored with the books. The Newberry has an online list of these newsletters and you can also ask for the list at the 2nd floor reference desk.
And when you're searching for these resource gems, don't overlook "family societies" - groups formed to study specific surname.

The new Canon Powershot ELPH 530 HS will be the first Canon camera with built-in Wi-Fi capabilities. That means you'll be able to wirelessly upload photos to the Internet as well as to transfer media directly to mobile devices.
The new camera uploads images to the Canon Image Gateway using a wireless network connected to the Internet. Canon's online service allows you to organize the photos and share them on Facebook, YouTube and Twitter.
The 530 HS will also let your camera wirelessly play with smartphones and tablets. In March, Canon will release the CameraWindow iOS app, so you'll be able to transfer your photos and videos from the 530 HS directly to an iOS device and vice versa. Canon plans to release a similar Android app in May.
Besides the new Wi-Fi features, the Canon Powershot ELPH 530 HS is identical to the Canon ELPH 520 HS we first saw last month. It's powered by Canon's new Digic 5 processor, which gives the camera speedier performance, and improved low-light shots compared to its Digic 4 predecessors. The 520 HS uses a 12x optical zoom, and shoots with a 10-megapixel, high-sensitivity CMOS sensor.
Canon will also be releasing the Powershot ELPH 320 HS, a cheaper camera with the same Wi-Fi features as the 530 HS. It's basically a Wi-Fi version of the new 110 HS. It is also powered by the Digic 5, has a 5x optical zoom, and carries a 16.1-megapixel, high-sensitivity CMOS sensor. Both the 530 HS and 320 HS can shoot 1080p HD video.
The Canon Powershot ELPH HS 530 will cost $350 and the 320 HS will run $280. Both cameras will be available in March. [Canon]

We're profiling a trio of collectives that showcased their goods at WantedDesign 2014 in New York, May 16 to May 19. Read on to learn about Seattle's co-op, then check out the work of designers in Chicago and Poland.
Designer Darin Montgomery is the man behind the Seattle furniture company Urbancase. He co-founded lighting studio Standard Socket, also in Seattle. And if that's not enough, he organized "Seattle Made" at this year's WantedDesign. In its second year, seven area designers—from 16th Workshop, Seattle Design Bureau, Chadhaus, Fruitsuper Design, Standard Socket, and Piano Nobile—exhibited the best of their tables, chairs, luminaires, dish towels, plates, and more. But the group's commitment to goods made in the Pacific Northwest doesn't stop at furniture. At Wanted, it served up Hilliard's Beer and Caffe Vita coffee, brewed and roasted, respectively, in Seattle.
"A number of designers from other cities approached us this weekend and were so surprised that we were exhibiting as a group," Montgomery said. "They were somewhat envious and said it would never happen where they live."
Tiny Tables, Fruitsuper Design
"Fun" is one descriptor for co-founders Joe Kent and Sallyann Corn of Fruitsuper Design. And their new home collection is the epitome of the word. A metal circlet holds jewelry and air plants on a wall. An perpetual calendar sits on a shelf for added retro whimsy. Best of all, the maple Tiny Tables—with sizes including a version that is 13-in. wide and deep and 3.5-in. tall, and one that is 15-in. wide and 7-in. deep and tall—can be used to prop up decorative objects on a bookshelf or table. The tables "more than make up for their petite size by blending charm with straightforward functionality," Corn says. Fun, meet function.
Sideboard, Urbancase
"Our design philosophy is to live well with less," Urbancase's Montgomery says. His Sidebar, co-created with Seattle designer Trey Jones, proves that less is more. Simple in form when closed, Sidebar's panel face slides laterally to reveal adjacent compartments for storing glassware and barware, while a door and pullout drawer offer additional storage space. The piece, which measures 42-in. long, 14.5-in. deep, and 35.5-in. tall, comes in walnut with a white Corian top, or, new this year, in bleached oak with a black Richlite top (shown).
Spun Pendant, Ladies & Gentlemen Studio
Two years ago, a group of creatives in Seattle decided that there had to be a better way to design and produce lighting—one that involved better collaboration between a piece's designer and maker. "We wanted to strip all of that back, start anew, and work with people we know," says Hillary Rielly, one of Standard Socket's co-founders. "And if we don't know you, we'll get to know you." Among the studio's current offerings is the Spun Pendant, designed by Seattle-based Ladies & Gentlemen Studio, which is known for its Superior Servers flatware. The fixture pairs a brass 6 ¼-in.-diameter, 4¼ in.-tall shade with copper, wood, and powdercoated aluminum to create subtle drama. Lamp options include A19 incandescent, A19 LED, or A19 CFL at 75W.

Steely Dan "Pretzel Logic"
In 1974 Steely Dan was structured as a standard band consisting of Walter Becker, Donald Fagen, Denny Dias, Jeff Skunk Baxter, and Victor Feldman. Under the guidance of producer Gary Katz the bands songs became more complex and featured a tribute to Charlie Parker and a cover of a Duke Ellington instrumental. Pretzel Logic was a critical and commercial success and won the band its first top 10 single with Rikki Dont Lose That Number.

Skip to comments.Physicists seek to put one thing in two places
Posted on 09/26/2006 4:23:06 AM PDT by snarks_when_bored
Sept. 25, 2006
Physicists say they have made an object move just by watching it. This is inspiring them to a still bolder project: putting a small, ordinary thing into two places at once.
The research comes from the edge of quantum mechanics, the submicroscopic realm of fundamental particles. There, things behave with total disregard for our common sense.
Let the puns begin...
Trying hard to understand the explanation of how looking at something can actually nudge it. Where do the electrons come from when we look at something? Yes, I know I am a moron. Very interesting post.
"Physicists say they have made an object move just by watching it."
Physicists have a habit of describing what they have discovered in ways that interest the public, but are not really accurate--at least not accurate if you would ask the average guy.
If you've got a particle, you can't just "watch it." It's too small. You use a probe to see if it's there. Or you might shine a light on it, if it's big enough. You use high tech equipment to measure its charge, and that will give away its position.
Of course, when you do any of those things, the particle is nudged a little bit. When you touch it with a probe, shine light on it, or test its charge, it moves.
It would be more accurate to say that they are making it move by "touching it," but then that would not be such a big headline.
It's not the looking at something that moves it. See my earlier post. What moves it is that you can't see it unless you bounce something off it, like light or electrons, or something else. Your eye detects the light that comes from the object, but first the light has got to reflect off the object.
Wink wink, nudge nudge.
Sometimes I can look at a woman and actually move her 10 feet or more... away from me.
Trying hard to understand the explanation of how looking at something can actually nudge it. Where do the electrons come from when we look at something?
Electrons interact with other electrons via the electromagnetic interaction, which is mediated by photons. If no photons are exchanged, no interaction take place (ignoring virtual photons and tunneling subtleties). So, essentially, if no photons are exchanged, nothing is seen, and if photons are exchanged, a disturbance in the motion of the seen (and the seer) takes place.
Okie dokie. Got it. Thanks!
I have the same mystical power over men.
looking for love in both the wrong places
What time did you want me over again? : )
Physicists say they have made an object move just by watching it.
I can do that after several bourbons. I can even put the same object in 2 or 3 places at the same time. Nothing new here.
hmmmmm.....are you an auto mechanic?? ;)
Can you cook?
hmmmmm.....are you an auto mechanic?? ;)
No, a voyeur. (laugh)
works even without photons or any particle exchanged with a detector.
If you obeserve interference of a single photon with itself on a double slit it is strange enough - because it seems to contradict the fact that it is only ONE photon. But even more strange - if you detect which slit it DID NOT take - interference will brake down.
Either you know, where a particle is a distinct time OR you know what impulse it has (speed, mass and direction) that's a LAW not a desricption of the unfitness of scientist or technicians to measure more precise.
Seeing the interference defines wich impulse the photon had so you can't have that AND know where it was at a certain time - even if you have found that out by looking where it NOT has been leaving it only one possibility.
A more abstract explanation might be given by string theory.
but can they put things on top of other things?
That would confuse the cat (Schroedinger's Cat, of course). There, I've run rings around you logically!
(Laz looks at his crotch)
Hell, my mother could do that!............."Take out the garbage"....."Mow the lawn"......etc......
[droning monotone] ...she has the same mystical power over men...
All I want to know is - does the Cat live?
My brother, we are strong in something.
All I want to know is - does the Cat live?
Yes and No.
Did Schroedinger ever have to change his kitty litter?
A new variation of the old boson-fermian trick?
Big deal. So do porn stars.
Sounds almost, well, Newtonian.
And here I thought it was Yes and/or No. This new sort of physics is obviously less inclusive.
Ahah! Eureka! Forsooth! Verily! Is there a possibility that a tree falling in the forest makes no sound unless someone is listening?
All I want to know is - does the Cat live?
Did Schroedinger ever have to change his kitty litter?
See post #30.
Which is why Schrödinger used cats for his famous thought experiment. A cat could be meowing in front of her food bowl, knocking things off of her favorite shelf and getting under your feet simultaneously. Cats are also good at quantum tunneling where you can block all paths from point A to point B but the cat still moves between them.
Okay. I have noticed that my dog, Dixie, is IN TWO PLACES AT THE SAME TIME! I have hesitated to mention it to anyone, but this discovery explains it and makes it sort of okay to reveal it. - Well, anyway, during the day when I'm at the back door and look out - there stands Dixie waiting for me to pass her a treat out the back door. Then in a minute or so, when I move to the side door and look out, THERE STANDS DIXIE, tongue hanging out waiting for me to hand her out another slice of baloney or dog biscuit or something. There is NO WAY Dixie could run fast enough to be at both doors so soon. It is weird. In fact, her dry kibbles bin empties out so fast one would have to think there really are TWO Dixies living here.
And that's the way it is . . just another day here at Black Rock River Ranch, and such a comfort that science is finally explaining the strange happenings here at the ranch.
Not really. Simply an admission that for very tiny objects, the light that illuminates them can also give a tiny push.
I don't suppose they are willing to claim they can make an object move by watching it in the dark.
I once knew a guy named Vinnie who ended up in several places at once. In small, green, trash bags...
Who do you think he is, a bloody Doctor Bronowski?????!
Nothing is fundamental. There is always something smaller.
Nothing is fundamental. There is always something smaller.
Maybe it's turtles all the way down?
I can make guys on the golf channel miss a putt, just by thinking.

Last-minute shoppers pack stores
We're just hours away from Christmas morning, but thousands of shoppers are still looking for last minute gifts.
The Columbia Center Mall in Kennewick has been packed with people all day.
Some shoppers say today was the first day they got a chance to hit the stores, while others say they simply forget about some gifts.
Burbank's Sheena Kanyid thought she was done with her Christmas shopping a few days ago - but that changed this morning.
Every Christmas, Kanyid gets some pajamas for her daughter - who opens them up on Christmas Eve and wears them Christmas day.
But this year, Kanyid forgot.
"Everything else is done, except for the pajamas, and she goes, 'wonder what kind of jammies I'm getting this year?' And I went, I'll be right back" said Kanyid.
With just hours to go until Christmas Day, last minute shoppers packed stores across our region to get those final items on their holiday lists.
"Just getting out and trying to find the right gift, find what's right" said Cody McCary, shopper.
The Columbia Center Mall saw a steady flow of customers all day.
"And for some people, this isn't just last-minute. This is just what they do every year. This is their day to shop" said Patricia Bardin, Columbia Center Mall.
And store managers at the mall say the rush only got bigger as the day progressed.
"Hour by hour is getting a lot busier. So I think everybody kind of slept in in the morning, and then, they're kind of ready to come finish up the last little bit" said Courtney Hamilton, Apricot Lane.
Meredith and Joey Zamora bought some gifts for their baby this morning.
They say they waited until the last day because they wanted to keep their gifts a secret.
"The baby of the bunch, he would've gone through all the bags, so we waited till today" said Meredith Zamora.
Most shoppers say even though they waited until the last minute, they got what they wanted.
Kanyid found the pajamas she forgot about, and is now ready to relax for the holiday.
"That's right. It's gonna be a great Christmas. Absolutely" said Kanyid.

Leading the way for the Red Storm (0-1) was Haley Holmstead (American Fork, UT/American Fork) with 25 points and nine rebounds. Holmstead shot 7-21 from the field and 11-13 from the free throw line. Kaylah Miller (San Diego, CA/La Jolla Country Day) added 14 points, 12-18 from the free throw line.
After a Haley Holmstead jumper that cut the early Otter lead to 5-4 with 17:20 left in the first half, CSUMB used a 20-3 run to create the seperation that led them to victory.
Shooting in the first half was what put the Red Storm behind the proverbial eight ball. DSU connected on just 4 of 23 (17.4%) from the field, 0-5 from the line, but hit 20-28 (71.4) free throws. They trailed 61-28 at the intermission.
Coach Catherria Turner said, "We have to learn to rely on our defense when our shots don't fall and put two halves of basketball together."
The Otters were the complete opposite in the first half, finding the twine on 58.1 percent (25-43) that included 9-18 (50%) from behind the arc.
In the second half, the Red Storm found its stroke by shooting 14-34 (41.2%) to help them outscore the Otters 42-37.
CSUMB (0-1) had seven players finish double figures, with Nicole Beckman leading wat with 18 pioints. The Otters also hit 13 three-pointers in the game.
Turner concluded, "It was a real test two show us the things that we have two improve on going foward."
Dixie State will have two weeks before they play at CSU Los Angeles on Nov. 23 at 2 p.m.

The Carbon-Emery community is putting hands to work to make sure that every grave in the two-county area will be decorated for Memorial Day.
Support for the flower project has come from schools at all grade levels, the college, and civic-minded individuals and groups.
The latest count, estimated at 20,000, measures the number of flowers that have been delivered to the Sun Advocate and Emery County Progress offices. Material for thousands more have been distributed.
Flowers continue to flow in as others pick up their supplies to make more flowers for all the graves in the two county area. Supplies are available at the Sun Advocate office in Price and the Emery County Progress office in Castle Dale at 410 East Main.
The "No Grave Unadorned" project grew from an idea by Sun Advocate and Emery County Progress publisher Richard Shaw, who was looking for a way to demonstrate the community's respect for those who fought and died in wars and those who worked and struggled to build the community. It is a unique project, unlike any other in celebration of Memorial Day anywhere in the United States.
In addition to making the flowers, the newspapers are also looking for volunteers to help place them on graves the week of May 18-25.
For more information call Malyn Brady at 435 637-0732.

KTrash Rivera
Xenu in da house!
Lupita not a good look. However I like Mena 's. And Jamies and Sarah.
Love Lupita, Kate, and Elle's dresses. I even kind of like Jenna E's outfit.
Jaime A looks the president's wife on Scandal.ReplyCancel
Elle Fanning needs to take a hint from Kiernan Shirpa, on how to appropriately dress for her age.
Naya Kardashian.ReplyCancel
@Principessa. Did she ask you what your crimes were and offer you the Way To Happiness pamphlet? Jenna is a psycho who believes all religion was implanted into us by an Alien Overlord and that we're all infested with Space Cooties. She is an active member of an organization that abuses and brainwashes it's own members, forces women in it's Sea Org to get abortions. But hey, she puts on a smiley face and takes pictures with people so that makes it all right.ReplyCancel
Lupita is like Audrey Hepburn (if she were alive) to me: classy, pretty (no with that Marge Simpson hair, but most times), and would never give me a boner for some reason.ReplyCancel
Lupita gets my Best Look of the event award.ReplyCancel
Elle needs a new hairstyle. Nikki looks very boxy there even though she isn't. Oh Naya, you were so pretty 4 years ago. Shame.ReplyCancel
LOVE Kate Mara's dress!!ReplyCancel
Lupita is beautiful as always, the rest are okay.ReplyCancel
Those Fanning girls are unfortunate looking.ReplyCancel
Are women wearing pantyhose again?ReplyCancel
Either Elfman is wearing someone else's pants or her crotch dropped half a foot. Is she hiding Xenu in there?ReplyCancel
I'm over the midriff top thing. It's just not flattering. I wished the jumpsuit thing would work, but it's not. How did we do it so well in the 70's? Jenna has a nice body, why hide it?ReplyCancel
@gayeld I found Jenna Elfman twice as annoying after I found out she was COS.ReplyCancel
WTH did Naya Rivera do to her face?!
Jenna Elfman thought she was going to a slumber party huh?
Elle Fanning looks as if her head is photoshopped on someone else's body.
Kate Mara you mad?
I like Lupita's hair cropped short. The dress is pretty but she could've used a skin toned hose and different shoes. Makeup is flawless though.
Oh, I didn't know Jenna Elfman is a Scientologist. Guess I don't get out much.ReplyCancel
Rivera seems to photograph very Kardashian, but if you watch glee she still looks great. But maybe i'm just distracted by the delicious Chord Overstreet.ReplyCancel
I'm distracted by Naya's off-center belly button. It's like her plastic surgeon misplaced it after her tummy tuck….if she'd've had one, that is.ReplyCancel
A wrestler had that happen. When the Sandman went to WCW, he had lipo done, and I guess his gut was cockeyed in the compression suit after surgery, so his belly button was basically a wandering eye.ReplyCancel

Mobile and Wireless: HTC, Microsoft Go Big With Windows Phone 8X, 8S: First Look
Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer
At the end of October, Microsoft will introduce its Window 8 software for tablets and PCs and Windows Phone 8 software for smartphones. Taking no chances on the success of Windows 8, Microsoft developed its own tablet, the Surface. So far, it is trusting partners to create smartphones that make consumers fall in love with Windows Phone 8. "The experience on Windows Phone 8 is like the experience on no other phone," Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer said at a Sept. 19 event with HTC. He added, "We are incredibly enthused about what we can do with HTC."
HTC and Microsoft introduced the Windows Phone 8X and Windows Phone 8S at a New York City event Sept. 19. Thin and light and available in a handful of primary colors, the phones feature, respectively, 4.3- and 4-inch SuperLCD displays. The 8S, like the Apple iPhone 5, weighs just under 4 ounces. In addition to their lithe physiques, HTC is emphasizing the phones' sound qualitywith perks coming from its partnership with Beats Audioand cameras, including the generally overlooked front-facing camera. While HTC is better known to American consumers for its Android-running smartphones, HTC CEO Peter Chou said the companies have a 15-year working relationship and that HTC approached Microsoft about doing something "bigger and better than ever." Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer described the phones as "built from the ground up" to showcase the Windows Phone software. "It's a Windows Phone hero product," he added. "They have incredible cameras ... and killer, killer sound. Consumers are going to love these phones." In November, following the official launch of the Windows Phone 8 operating system, the 8X and 8S will be available in the United States from Verizon Wireless, AT&T and T-Mobile.

Highlights from the Marine Programme at GRID-Arendal for December 2011
Launch of Benthic Atlas
The pioneering Seafloor Geomorphology as Benthic Habitat: GeoHAB Atlas of Seafloor Geomorphic Features and Benthic Habitats was released in December.
For more information, please contact Elaine Baker.
Blue Carbon? There's an app for that!
A free iPhone application, named UNEP Carbon Calculator, was launched 13 December at the official opening of the One UN Pavillion at the Eye on Earth Summit in Abu Dhabi. Developed by GRID-Arendal for UNEP, this application allows users to access information on UNEP's work on Blue Carbon and REDD (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation). You can learn about coastal and forest ecosystems that are featured in the application, and calculate the carbon dioxide emissions of your air and road travel in terms of equivalent area in hectares of coastal (seagrass, mangroves, saltmarsh) and terrestrial (tropical humid and miombo) ecosystems. The application also provides information on specific actions that you can take to minimise your carbon footprint and conserve carbon sinks.

Did you know that…
…communities of species previously unknown to science have been discovered on the seafloor near Antarctica? The discoveries, made by teams led by the University of Oxford, University of Southampton and British Antarctic Survey, include new species of yeti crab, starfish, barnacles, sea anemones, and potentially an octopus.

…multibeam sonar, a technology commonly used to map the bottom of the deep ocean, can also detect gas seeps in the water column with remarkably high fidelity? This finding, made onboard the NOAA ship Okeanos Explorer in the Gulf of Mexico, will lead to more effective mapping of these gas seeps and, ultimately, enhanced understanding of our ocean environments.

One of the roles of FAO is to serve as a clearing house for information on agricultural education and training and to facilitate the dissemination of information among member states. This helps to enable each country to more clearly identify the immense variety of skills and facilities that exist on a global basis.
Available in:
Through this workshop series, the expertise of farmers, skilled workers from research stations, university faculty members and specialists from industry and services was shared with visiting farmers, extension staff, and members of agricultural organizations from Central and Eastern Europe.
In a rapidly changing social and natural environment, agricultural education and training is being asked to play a critical role. What are the changes and adaptations, in structure, strategy and policy, that agricultural education institutions need to make to face the new challenges of the twenty-first century?
Available in: |
There is widespread recognition of the need to improve both agricultural education and extension work with rural women. This article outlines the activities undertaken by the Extension, Education and Communication Service in the area of women in agricultural education and extension. These include a series of case studies on women in higher agricultural education and the preparation of a training
This paper suggests that agricultural education institutions need to foster their relationship to the development process through the integration of academic scholarship with development tasks, including national but especially local development tasks. The implication is that a wide range of stakeholders in local development should participate in the curriculum development process

How many angels can dance on the head of a pin? Is the best Wins Above Replacement stat from Fangraphs or Baseball Reference?
"Smart beta," "fundamental indexing," "factor investing," "alternative beta," or … what?
There's something of a food fight in the exchange-traded fund industry over who builds the best ETFs based on non-traditional methods — meaning ETFs based on things like revenue or earnings, dividends, or a slant toward "value" stocks. It bubbled up this morning at Morningstar's ETF Invest conference, when indexing executives picked apart what drives returns for these relatively new methods.
First it was a legal battle between Rob Arnott's Research Affiliates and WisdomTree Investments (WETF) over indexing methods (the suit was settled last year). Lately it's adviser Rick Ferri versus Arnott, and First Trust's Dan Waldron against just about every other suitor in this niche.
For Northern Trust (NTRS) ETF executive Shundrawn Thomas – who runs a bunch of ETFs that fall into this camp — the debate seems moot.
"It doesn't come up with our clients," Thomas says, adding it's generally enough to explain the risk-reward of NT's dozen or so FlexShares ETFs without getting into the food fight over what to call it.
FlexShares Quality Dividend Index Fund (QDF) looks for payouts and companies with reliable (ie, quality) cash flow, earnings and management. FlexShares International Quality Dividend Index Fund (IQDF) does this for foreign stocks. And so forth.
At the same time, is this issue completely a matter of semantics? Maybe not. There are important differences between each type of ETF vying for assets in this niche, as the Barron's ETF Focus column has argued. You can do a "factor" analysis on just about any portfolio, which yields arguments what the investments' true drivers are.
NT's FlexShares, for its own part, calls its approach "flexible indexing," so I guess you can add this term to the lexicon, too — even if the company isn't on the airwaves comparing it to rivals.

The Teenage and Adult Driver Responsibility Act establishes graduated driver licensing for Georgians between the ages of 15 to 18, with three separate classifications.
Step 1 - Instructional Permit (Class CP)
This is granted to 15 year-olds upon passage of a written examination. While driving, the permit holder must be accompanied by a licensed (Class C) adult 21 years or older.
Step 2 - Intermediate License (Class D)
The license is granted to drivers between 16 and 18 years of age who have held an Instructional Permit for 12 months and passed a driving test. The Intermediate License has the following restrictions:
An approved driver education program, consisting of 30 hours approved classroom or online training and 6 hours of formal driving instruction with a state approved driving instructor. The Parent Teen Driving Guide may substitute for the formal driving instruction.
A cumulative total of at least 40 hours of supervised driving (6 hours at night). This requirement is included in the Parent Teen Driving Guide. If the teen completed their 6 hour driving requirement with an instructor rather than the Parent Teen Driving Guide, the parent/guardian will sign a Driving Affidavit at the time of the road test appointment.
Driver's Education is not required at age 17.
These requirements also apply to an applicant for an initial Class C driver's license who has not previously been issued a Class D license.
Step 3 - Full License (Class C)
For drivers 18 years of age or older who hold a Class D license, this license is granted if there have been no major traffic convictions for the previous 12 months.
