Comment: Higher Education is in many ways over rated, we send our children and they are brain washed by socialist educators and they come out to work for managers whom served as interns and apprentices when they first left High School. Do not pretend to know the answer however maybe If our children would enlist in our countries military and retire after twenty years, then study and graduate when they are forty they would not be susceptible to liberal professors and would have 25 years in our work force.1 Recommendation
Comment: Government is master loan sharks!!!Recommend
Comment: Obama and his WH poses a lager threat against the USA than all the so called terrorists.Recommend
Comment: The one thing we can learn from Clinton, Bush and Obama, is that the Hollywood, Madison Avenue and journalist type images of what makes a President are Cattle Truck Wash! Yes, Lawyers and MBAs fit into that same parallel. The office of President is a serious station that needs tough CEOs who can call competent managers in to help.Recommend

The staff is really nice, the office is clean, very little waiting. nurse calls promptly with lab results. But the doc does not listen!! At All !! To anything you say! I have thyroid disease and I did mega research, had lots of questions, doc didn't have time to help me understand my disease....didn't have time to answer questions. . When I asked about another symptom being related to the thyroid (every piece of research I did said it was related, even the American Thyroid Assoc and the Endo Asoc. but this doc said no, not related and he would not even look at what I asked him to, would not touch me. He turned his back on me, literally. He acts like you are wasting his time. He is the doc (god) and you are the lowly stupid patient. You should listen and obey. HA! I'm looking for a new doc.

James: You wrote: > The pushover analysis gradually increases the load to a specified > maximum deflection or failure. If as a minimum columns must be able > to be removed how would a push over analysis help. Educate me. I use SAP2000 for both dynamic nonlinear and static nonlinear analysis. I'll outline the concept you might use as the basis for your analysis and another important consideration. First, remember that SAP2000 and XLinea are general purpose analysis programs. Don't be discouraged if the manual or tutorials ignore your class of problem. My most interesting and rewarding analyses have involved figuring out how to get the program to do what I want. The simplest approach is to simply design the system (statically) for each possible missing column condition. However, the resulting design might not be economical and certainly wouldn't indicate what happens when the element goes away. Saying this method is not an option... The basic approach to the removal of an element (using a program like SAP, that doesn't directly support element removal) is as follows: With the element in the model, apply the static loads that simulate the initial condition. Find out the internal loads in the element in question. Modify the model by removing the element and introducing loads that are equal and opposite of the internal loads previously noted. Now you should be able to run a static analysis with the applied loads and the new "internal" loads and get the same answer as before. The analysis proceeds by ramping the "internal" loads to zero, which simulates loss of the element. The idea is to remove the element and watch what fun things happen as a result. If you are performing a dynamic analysis, the rate of load removal (element death) can be significant; you will need to play with this parameter. Because the analysis is nonlinear dynamic, it is important that the mass, stiffness, damping, and strength characteristics of the system (and elements) are appropriate. Simply run time history analysis where the load ramps to zero and stays at zero for a suitable length of time (for instance, until the resulting motion damps out). If you are performing a nonlinear static analysis, the rate of load removal is not as significant since the analysis consists of a series of static analyses; inertia and damping do not come into play. The strength and stiffness of the system (and elements) are the important parameters. Using SAP2000, a pushover analysis can be either force or displacement controlled. The controlling parameter can be in the vertical direction (although that's certainly not how most pushover analyses are performed). The important consideration I alluded to involves the decision of whether to use dynamic or static analysis. If the response of the system is expected to be dynamic (dependent on inertia and damping), you really should not use nonlinear static analysis. I've had a lot of discussion with the folks at CSI and with the developer of XLinea on this topic. We all agree that one of the two biggest weaknesses of the pushover method is the fact that it misses dynamic response. Even when the final results aren't dependent on dynamic interaction, the presence of inertia and damping in the dynamic solution method significantly improves convergence. In the static method there are several key decisions that must be made by the software developer and user that affect load redistribution, etc. I can provide a little more detail offline if you're interested. > Correct me if I am wrong but SAP and Xlinea both do a pushover > analysis. SAP does 3-D and Xlinea only 2-D. SAP does not do shear > walls while Xlinea does. XLinea is still based on the DRAIN-2Dx elements, input file, and solution engine. The DRAIN panel element is limited to elastic behavior, just as the SAP2000 shell elements are. SAP2000 can do 3D pushover analysis. However, I would caution that it becomes much more difficult to understand what's happening as the structure becomes more complex. Under most circumstances 2D pushover analysis offers improved understanding without being so difficult to understand. (Of course, there are times when you may really need 3D interaction; make sure your fee is large.) -Mike - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Michael Valley E-mail: mtv(--nospam--at)skilling.com Skilling Ward Magnusson Barkshire Inc.

In our tabulation of psychoanalytic results, we have classed those who stopped treatment together with those not improved. This appears to be reasonable: a patient who fails to finish his treatment, and is not improved, is surely a therapeutic failure.

We arrived home last night and I'm still have the "awe" of africa with me. Just wanted to write a quick post about our 2 weeks in Kenya with Patty and Mark (they will not be back to Monday and I'm going to leave most of the trip reporting to Patty, since she is the expert). I will probably post my pictures, but I'm sure our photos will be very similar.
Like others have reported Kenya is very very dry right now and rain is really needed. We did have a little rain one evening when we stayed at Sandai, but in the morning you could barely tell it had rained at all, the ground still was so dry. The animals are really concentrated near the watering holes and 2 of the camps we stayed in were on water and had lots of animals near and in camp. At Galdessa in Tsavo east we had to be escorted through camp as the elephants were every where. I thought we were going to have one big bull in the dining room with us, but he knew his way around camp and once you got used to them walking along the camp paths it was quite the sight.
I cannot say enough about ithumba, it was an amazing experience. And everyone survived my meals. The camp has 2 on staff and they do a lot as far as setting the tables and all the clean up.
All in all it was a great trip, I'm still a little jet lagged, but did want to get something posted.

I do not want to steal Patty's "thunder" on the reporting as it was her trip and we were just lucky enough to get invited to go along. But I did want to let everyone know it was a huge success.
One thing I will add is that we took our brother in law's guitar (just a reminder that my husband's sister and her family live in Nairobi) with us on safari and it was a big hit out there in the bush and really nice to have some live music. I would really recommend to anyone that has access to an instrument to take it with you.
We had Patty's usual driver from Eastern & Southern, Julius driving us and then at the end we flew back from Tsavo west. There was room on the plane for the guitar and our 2 cooler's (Ithumba is self catered). I can just imagine what we looked like getting off the plane at Wilson, dragging a couple of coolers and carrying a guitar.
I can not say enough about how great a driver/guide Julius is and i can see why Patty and also Paul always request him as a driver.

twaffle, I think Patty mentioned you are going with your family later this year or next to Ithumba? I hope you have at least 3 nights booked. 5 might be even better if you have the time. It's now at the top of my list of favorite places to visit. I've saved my shopping list and if you have any questions about the self catering or cooking feel free to ask. They were much more equipped than I was expecting.
Report Abuse
Joeyi, thank you. I was planning on next year for Ithumba, but will have to postpone it for a year or so depending on our work schedule. I want to take the children but my eldest is approaching all his difficult years exam wise and next year (which would have worked for him) is now looking like a solo trip for me … so not Ithumba. But I would be interested in how you managed the shopping for self catering because although I have the info from Sheldrick's (courtesy Patty) it isn't the same as getting information from a traveller who actually went there. In fact, we have some friends who may join us if I can persuade them that it is a good end of school year trip. I would definitely plan on at least 3 nights as I think all that effort of self catering for less would be too hard.
Report Abuse
We had help with the shopping as it was all done by my brother in law while we were off on a short safari prior to going to Tsavo. I had given him a list and I must say he did really well. There was only one mystery food and I bet Patty will report on that as it was cause for lots of laughs. They also loaned us coolers that they filled with ice, which worked out great as then one cooler became the cold drink cooler and the ice lasted the 3 days. There is a propane refrigerator/freezer there, but it's small and not to be overloaded. Depending on the safari company that you use you could probably give them a shopping list and have them shop for you, or give yourself a day in Nairobi and stock up at Nakumatt. We went off the Sheldrick's list and it was pretty helpful in all the things you need to bring.
It would be a great trip for a couple of families and also very educational for the children. I'm still amazed at what we did and learned there.

We're home too!
I just wanted to echo what Joyce said about Ithumba. It was magical!
As far as shopping, it would be fairly easy to provision yourself if you had time (I think Joyce's BIL got everything at Nakumatt). Otherwise I would give your tour operator a list (avoid the pork brawn ) and have them provide you with coolers, etc. We went through about 10 liters of water per day for the 5 of us for drinking/coffee & tea making/cooking (unfortunately Joyce's family in Nairobi didn't end up joining us due to some last minute scheduling issues they had). Water for showering and washing up are provided. Njagi and Kimwele will pretty much help with anything you need.
Hope you guys get to go!
Going to start sorting through photos soon (I took some of Makena and Chyulu for you, sallysaab).

Cell A cell is like a doctor's office as a whole (the building, the people, and the business).
Cell Wall Only plant cells have a cell wall. The cell wall is the structure of the cell that supports it. The building itself would be like the cell wall because it is the structure of the office.
Cell Membrane The cell membrane regulates what goes in and out of the cell. The doors to the building regulate who comes in and who goes out of the office.
Nucleus The nucleus is the control center of the cell. Most offices have a boss/manager that is in control. They take care of things that the doctor is to busy to deal with. Without a boss/manager, it would be very hectic.
Mitochondrion The mitochondrion is the power house of the cell. It produces energy (ATP) for the cell. The receptionists that are at the front desk schedule appointments and take care of patient's paperwork. Without patients, there would be no business. So the receptionists are like the power house of the office and the patient's business would be the energy.
Ribosome Ribosomes produce proteins for the cell. Advertising a doctor's business promotes people to become patients there. So the advertising would be like the ribosomes and the patients would be like the proteins in a cell.
Golgi Apparatus The golgi apparatus packages and shifts proteins in the cell. When patients (proteins) arrive, they have to remain in the waiting room, fill out papers that go into their charts, and are eventually taken back to a room to see the doctor. This process gets the patients (proteins) ready step-by-step to be seen by the doctor just like the golgi apparatus gets the proteins ready and shifted in the cell.
Endoplasmic Reticulum
The endoplasmic reticulum are passage ways for proteins to move through the cell. The hallways in the building are passage ways for the patients (proteins) to go from the waiting room to the room where they will see the doctor. Endoplasmic Reticulum
Vacuole The vacuole stores water, food, and waste in the cell. Patient's charts store information that is needed to continue business with that patient.
Animal Cell: Plant Cell: Both Cells: cytoskeleton- inside the cell

There is no more noble goal than supporting and protecting our warfighters. Our mission is to guard our nation and its allies against the threat of WMD wherever it may occur. Our success hinges upon collaborating with our allies to defend common interests and overcome common threats.
We take a "whole of Government" approach to these threats by synchronizing our efforts nationally with other agencies in defense and throughout the government, as we did with Syrian Chemical materials and our support to Operation United Assistance.
We're working on new sensors, detectors, uniforms and vaccines that will protect our troops from all sorts of chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear threats - whether they're facing weapons of mass destruction on the battlefield, or natural hazards present during humanitarian missions. We strive to identify, reduce or eliminate the threat long before the men and women of our military get close to it - but we also provide them with the tools to destroy WMD when that's not possible.

I've written in the past about Sanditon (which seems to improve over time, becoming better and better in memory) and The Confessions of a Jane Austen Addict (which seems to get worse over time. I originally gave it a rating C+, but I most certainly wouldn't give it that anymore. Memories of the bad parts seem to outweigh memories of the good parts when eight months have passed). Both of these are examples of fairly creative explorations of the Jane Austen world, but I've read several others as well:
Mr. Darcy Takes A Wife is a sequel of Pride and Prejudice that traces Mr. and Mrs. Darcy's life after the wedding. Both this book and its sequel (Days and Nights at Pemberley) are very well-written, with the Victorian voice staying to true to Jane Austen's for the most part. The story lines are also extremely satisfying as far as plot goes (which seems to be rare). Plot twists abound, most notably the revelation that --SPOILER ALERT-- Mr. Wickham is actually Mr. Darcy's illegitimate half-brother. Gasp!
What many reviews won't tell you is that a large part of this book is essentially erotica, and while it isn't written badly, it is an almost never-ending fuckfest, complete with as many Victorian euphimisms for penis as possible. To give Berdoll the credit due her, she wrote this book with exactly this goal in mind, so it should be counted as nothing if not a success. That is, it is written with the intention of finally satisfying all the long-repressed Mr. Darcy fantasies that are apparently wide-ranging and raunchy. You've been warned, but even if you don't appreciate the borderline-pornographic scenes, the book is very good.
Overall, I would give the book a B, which is good--the only Austenian writer good enough to get an A is Jane Austen herself.
Mr. Darcy's Diary, by Amanda Grange
If I had to describe this book in one word, I would say: boring. If I had to describe it in two words, I would say: extremely boring. I could have written this book when I was in seventh grade as Grange apparently just took the dialogue from the original story, re-wrote it from Darcy's point of view, and added several extra scenes to explain the shotgun wedding between Lydia Bennet and Mr. Wickham. It is written in first-person (as it is ostensibly a journal), but the first third of the book focuses exclusively on Mr. Bingley's relationship with Jane. Why the hell would Darcy care that much about Mr. Bingley, to the point that he's keeping a diary to record the events of the other man's courtship?
In addition, the characters of both Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet are left completely flat and undeveloped, while the author fleshes out Mr. Bingley almost to the point of ridiculousness. In it, Bingley is painted as a reknowned flirt who is leading the kind Jane on and Darcy simply must do something to save her from Bingley's advances, little realizing that Bingley actually loves her. The whole thing reeked of rewriting history, as I always thought Mr. Darcy made it exceedingly clear in P&P that he was attempting to protect his friend, not his friend's beloved.
I would give this book a solid D and recommend that you never read it.
And finally, one that I haven't read as it is coming April 15, 2009, to a bookstore near you: Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, by Jane Austen and Seth Grahame-Smith.
It promises to be nothing if not entertaining!

The Note: Breaking Down the Trump Press Conference
Trump's First 100 Days with SHUSHANNAH WALSHE
Day No. 29
THE BIG STORY: The president's first solo press conference yesterday was an almost 80-minute look inside the president's mind four weeks into his term. President Trump relished in unleashing on the press and stressed that his administration is not in "chaos," but being run like "a fine-tuned machine," refusing to take any responsibility for the missteps and upheaval that have plagued the first month of his presidency. There was news too: a new immigration executive order will be unveiled next week; former national security adviser Michael Flynn was "just doing his job" and the president repeatedly claimed that he has "nothing to do with Russia," calling assertions to the contrary "fake news" and insisting "leaks" are the real problem. Besides laying into the press in a performance he truly seemed to enjoy, Trump also revealed he has asked the Department of Justice to investigate those leaks and he's working on both plans for…

So I'm using the 2.2 alpha version of Godot and fiddling with moveandslide for a kinematic character, but I'm having issues with movement along slopes.
I notice the demo just uses a constant FLOORNORMAL Vector2(0,-1). I figured maybe I could do a getcollisionnormal() to replace the FLOORNORMAL, but that didn't seem to work out too well. I set up a state machine to print out the current state and sure enough, it's constantly switching between "ground" and "air" so long as I'm moving on the slope.
Is there an easy way to fix this so I stay on the "ground" when going uphill/downhill? Gravity is already set decently high (around 3000), which comes with its own issues so I'd rather not make that any higher.
Preferably, I'd like to avoid using a bunch of raycasts to detect collision sideways and beneath in order to set specific x and y velocities.
I'm still struggling with slopes with and without moveandslide with a fixed speed...
Going down in steep slopes is my bigger problem, maybe limiting the x speed when the normal is at an angle > PI or when the remaining Y motion is too big.
But a raycast may be unavoidable to get floor normal when going down (mostly to slow X and prevent the starting jump that ruins all the movement).
In the github demo project, there is a platformer demo that uses moveandslide and almost solves slope issues, i think because the controller does something like an accelerated movement.
Remember that moveandslide is still a work in progress, I don't know if it will suffer some changes or even if will be added to Godot 3.

A torque converter allows a vehicle engine to spin independently of the transmission. When the engine turns slowly (for instance when the vehicle is idling at a traffic signal), the amount of torque passing through the torque converter to the transmission is small; however, it requires light pressure on the brake pedal. When the driver applies more pressure on the accelerator, the engine revs up and pumps more fluid into the torque converter. Thus, more torque is transmitted to the wheels.

You must make up your mind that you want to belong to it and then begin immediately to keep the rules. The rules are simple~3 little don'ts and 3 little dos." (I typed these out and taped them to my bathroom mirror;)

2. Don't speak unkindly to anyone.
3. Don't act unkindly toward anyone.
1. Do speak kindly of someone at least once a day.

3. Say a little prayer~such as "Bless N., O Lord,"(for the one to whom you have been unkind).
"Kindness is the grand cause of God in the world....Your mission in life should be to reconquer for God's glory His unhappy world and give it back to Him. Devote yourself to the beautiful apostolate of kindness, so that you and others may enjoy the bliss of Divine Life."~Fr. Lawrence Lovasik~
Prayer for Kindness
Keep us, O God, from pettiness;
let us be kind in thought, in word, and in deed.
Let us be done with fautlfinding and leave off self-seeking.
May we put away all pretense and meet each other
face-to-face, without self-pity and without prejudice.
May we never be hasty in judgement and always generous.
Help us, O Lord, always to be kind.
Have you stopped over to A Life-Size Catholic Blog? Through my bloggy friend Anne from Imprisoned In My Bones, it was again, God's perfect timing to discover Holly's delightful place.

Beckett Took the Student to a Nearby Cafe; The Success of 'Godot'
Published: January 12, 1990
To the Editor:
Samuel Beckett's obituary (Dec. 27) and the editorial ''What 'Godot' Hath Wrought'' (Dec. 28) refer to the 1956 production of Beckett's play ''Waiting for Godot'' at the Golden Theater in New York City as a commercial failure.
The play opened for a limited run. As business began to pick up, Mike Myerberg asked Bert Lahr and me if we would extend the run. I had signed to do a movie in New York and thought it would be too strenuous for me to work all day in a studio and then go to the theater. The show closed as scheduled. Mr. Myerberg opened ''Godot'' later with a black cast.
We never thought it would be a commercial success. We never doubted its artistic integrity and importance.
Bedford, N.Y., Dec. 28, 1989

In my official capacity as drinks columnist for this newspaper, I sometimes get invited to glittering events - and I usually say no, simply because glitter and I have an uneasy relationship. One recent invitation, however, had me sitting me up and paying attention. My hand hovered over the "yes, please" button. Then I realised I couldn't make the date in question, so hand moved to the "no, thanks" button. But then I realised there was something better I could do. I could use the invitation to make money for a good cause.
The event in question is a fundraising dinner on 11 September at Bank restaurant in Aldwych. Beneficiary: Action Against Hunger (AAH). One possible description: "lavish". Proceedings begin with an hour of Taittinger Champagne, then move on to a four-course dinner with each course cooked by a distinguished London chef: starter by Giorgio Locatelli of Locanda Locatelli, fish by Henry Harris of Racine, main by Christian Delteil of Bank, and pudding by Tom Aikens of the restaurant bearing his name. The matching wines are being provided by Penfolds, and will be opened under the guidance of top sommelier Gérard Basset.
And somewhere along the way, an auction will be held of fine wines donated by all manner of benefactors. The wines on auction make for mouth-watering reading. As of the time of writing, lots include a magnum of Château Haut-Brion, a six-bottle case of Penfolds Grange 1999, a magnum of Dow's 1977 vintage port signed by Dow's supremo Paul Symington, a magnum of Château Pichon-Longueville 2000, and a bottle of Château Pontet-Canet 1929, donated by Ken Hom. God only knows what the winning bids will be; but the watching should be enjoyable, especially after a meal like this one.
Unable to make that date, I have arranged to donate my ticket as an exclusive raffle prize for The Independent on Sunday readers. All I'm asking of you is to send your name, address and phone number to the address that follows in a moment. Just that - plus another signature, this time on a cheque made payable to Action Against Hunger UK. You're not legally obliged to send a cheque, of course, but I know that you'll do the right thing.
And if you are interested not just in attending but in taking along a friend, there's an incentive to do it. Anyone sending a cheque for £25 or more will have the opportunity to get another ticket at the reduced price of £100. Even if you don't win the prize, you'll have made a sizeable donation to an exceedingly worthy cause. And if you do win, you'll get a bang-up meal for two people for as little as £125 - which is not chicken-feed in anyone's currency, but is terrific value for four courses in central London cooked by some of the best chefs in the land. The meal, if you could get it at any other restaurant, would probably cost £100 a head with all that champagne, all that wine, and four courses.
Sound appealing? Then send in your details (including phone number and a cheque, please!) to Independent on Sunday offer, Action Against Hunger UK, Unit 7B Larnaca Works, Grange Walk, London SE1 3EW. Post them to arrive by 5 September. The winner will be picked out of a hat late that afternoon, and will be informed by phone immediately.
Final technical note: if you make a donation and you are a UK taxpayer, please remember to state that you are a UK taxpayer and happy for Action Against Hunger to claim Gift Aid on your donation. I'll be with the lucky winner in spirit. Deeply envious, of course, but cheering you on.
Top Corks: Three to stave off autumn
Stella Bella Semillon-Sauvignon Blanc 2003, Margaret River (£40.79 from £51.24 for 6 bottles, www.sainsburyswine.co.uk Great wine with Riesling-like lime intensity. A steal.
Roero Arneis 2004, Terre da Vino (£5.99, or £5.09 if you buy two, Majestic) A fresh, citrussy and nutty white from a distinguished producer of Barolo. Arneis is the grape.
Dourthe No.1 Sauvignon Blanc 2004 (£4.99, Waitrose) Bordeaux Sauvignon Blanc is often overlooked because of New World competition. It shouldn't be, as this lively, low-cost example shows.Reuse content

Hollie Smith
About the Mentor
Hollie Smith is one of New Zealand's most predominant & iconic musicians. After working with numerous bands including Trinity Roots, Fat Freddy's Drop and Detroit dance legend Recloose, she was approached by NZ songwriting royalty Don McGlashan to perform on a movie soundtrack single 'Bathe in The River' that topped the New Zealand singles charts and became one of the biggest and iconic singles in New Zealand history.
This set the stage for Hollie's debut album 'Long Player' released in 2007 which went straight to number one on the NZ charts. The album reached multi-platinum status, and was followed with sold out tours and then saw her take away several NZ music awards that year which included 'Best Producer', 'Best Female Solo Artist' and 'Breakthrough artist of the year'.
In 2010 she released her second album 'Humour and the Misfortune of Others' which reached #1 in the charts and gold status in New Zealand, and followed it up with the 2011 release of her 3rd album 'Band of Brothers Vol 1' - a remarkable collaboration with Mara TK from Electric Wire Hustle, and her biggest shift left from any music she had previously released.
Then in 2013 she collaborated with fellow iconic NZ singers Anika Moa and Boh Runga to release the album 'Anika Boh Hollie', and then immediately followed it with a successful winery tour of New Zealand.
In 2014 Hollie toured Canada, the US and the UK, including two powerhouse performances at the prestigious Montreal Jazz Festival, wowing the crowd performing two sets to over 50,000 people.
Hollie performed a series of shows in Australia in 2015 including the Queenscliff Festival, and in October released the single 'Lady Dee', following with the singles 'Helena' & 'Lead The Way' and album title track 'Water Or Gold' in the lead up to her eagerly anticipated latest solo album which was released in New Zealand in April 2016. 'Water Or Gold' entered the New Zealand charts at #1 sitting in the top 10 for 3 weeks.
