Story highlights
- Josh Levs: Marina Keegan, a new Yale grad off to promising future, was killed in crash
- He says she embodied idea of reaching for, achieving dreams; was writer, playwright
- He says some fellow grads who hoped for great things found life intervened
- Levs: Keegan's life an example of following instincts, passion, valuing friends and family
It's astounding how fast the words of a 22-year-old woman, her life suddenly cut short, have spread across the Internet and into the hearts and minds of people all over the world.
Marina Keegan, a budding writer, was once published by the New York Times and had a job lined up at the New Yorker. Also a playwright, she had a musical slated for a staging in August at the New York International Fringe Festival.
She wrote a moving essay in the Yale Daily News to inspire her fellow seniors as they graduated last week. She died in a car crash a few days later.
That column, in which she strives to remind her peers that "we have so much time," has taken on a tragic, powerful resonance.
Discussing the "immense and indefinable potential energy" many felt as freshmen, she wrote that it's important to remember "we can still do anything. We can change our minds. We can start over. ... We're so young. We can't, we MUST not lose this sense of possibility because in the end, it's all we have."
The loss of Keegan is heartbreaking for many reasons. One of them is that she surely would have been among the too few people in the world who chase their dreams and bring them to fruition.
I know what it is to feel the "sense of possibility" she described. I felt it when I was at Yale in the '90s. Since then, I've lived by it. I've also had time to see what distinguishes those who chase dreams from those who give up.
Two friends of mine, fellow Yalies who graduated in different years and don't know each other, told me that in the years after college, they felt "betrayed" by some friends who had wonderful plans for the future and swiftly gave up on them. People who didn't harness their creativity to carve new paths. People who became focused on making more and more money and little else, who never took chances, because they got too busy, more interested in wealth or stature than doing something amazing, or just forgot about those dreams.
In each case, I asked my friend how that amounted to betrayal. And each gave me the same answer: The plans we had for the future weren't just plans or hopes. They were a pact. We would take the education and incredible opportunities we had been given and go out and fight for a better world in new ways. Separately, together.
It's what Keegan touched on in her last line to her class: "We're in this together, 2012. Let's make something happen to this world."
As I've written before, the world needs more visionaries. From electricity to vaccines to Hubble, everything humanity has created that improves our lives exists because dreamers pursued their visions.
It's not easy, and it can become harder as you grow up and have families dependent on you. Life exhausts and distracts you into shelving aspirations. Making them happen is hard work. But it's incomparably rewarding.
There is every reason to believe that Keegan would have fought for hers. It's clear in her writing.
Written from the perspective of a young woman at the dawn of her adult life, her words are a stunning bookend to something David Brooks wrote about in October in the New York Times: a collection of short autobiographies that members of the Yale class of 1942 wrote for their 50th reunion.
People who "passively let their lives happen to them" lamented "how boring they must seem," while others "regret the risk not taken," Brooks wrote.
"The most exciting essays were written by the energetic, restless people, who took their lives off in new directions midcourse."
Anyone with an unfulfilled dream would do well to keep that in mind -- and should read Keegan's column, because it applies to them as well.
The essays by people who "felt summoned to do one thing," Brooks added, "ring with passion and conviction."
That's about instincts, which are ultimately the key to chasing dreams and the biggest driver for those of us who don't give up. We let ourselves tune out everything else and listen to what our instincts are telling us we have to do. That's why nothing can stop us.
It's easy to imagine that nothing would have stopped Keegan.
Her death is also a reminder of a daily tragedy. While U.S. fatalities in car crashes are decreasing, far too many families and friends know the pain of such loss.
Keegan, above all else, valued family and friends. In this, she seemed wise beyond her years. I was -- like many other ambitious young people -- so focused on career goals, it took me years to gain the perspective she had and live by the knowledge that the loved ones you surround yourself with are by far the most important thing in life.
"We don't have a word for the opposite of loneliness, but if we did, I could say that's what I want in life," she wrote.
Yale graduates from 70 years before her say the same. "For almost all, family and friends mattered most," Brooks wrote.
Keegan's words give us all reason to remember the world of possibilities before us and to make sure we're valuing time with loved ones. In her death, she just may be inspiring people to live better, deeper, more exciting lives -- with "passion and conviction."
And that's unforgettable.

When the mobile and wireless industry assembles for its major annual confab next week in Las Vegas, it will be with a mixture of elation and anxiety. Rarely has an industry been transformed so swiftly, and with so many competing forces, than the U.S. wireless business since the last CTIA Wireless convention, in March 2007.
A brief outline of the changes in the industry would start with last June's release of the iPhone, which has transformed perceptions of what a mobile device is capable of for both consumers and vendors.
Earlier this month Apple announced the launch of the software development kit for the popular mobile Internet device. Meanwhile, the emergence of new open source mobile platforms led by Android, from Google, as well as corresponding moves by big U.S. wireless carriers (in particular Verizon Wireless) to open their networks to independent devices and applications, is leading many observers to speak of a new era in the wireless industry in this country.
Add to that the conclusion of the FCC's 700 MHz auction, which promises to finally lead to the establishment of an open-access wireless broadband network in this country, and you've got an industry undergoing its biggest transformation since 1968, when the FCC increased the available frequencies for wireless telecommunications, opening the way for the modern cell-phone industry.
Meanwhile, some analysts are saying that the spectacular growth in global handset sales over the last few years will slow, if not halt, in 2008. IMS Research predicts that worldwide shipments of new mobile phones will grow to 1.2 billion in 2008, an increase of 5.7% over 2007. Cell phone sales have been growing at double-digit rates for the last several years. The slowdown will be caused by several factors, the research firm says, including a likely U.S. recession and a decline in replacement handset sales in nearly saturated markets like the United States and Western Europe.
Against that turbulent and promising backdrop, here's what to look for this week in Sin City:

If you're planning to purchase the iPad 2 tomorrow when it officially launches in Australia, you're going to want come form of protection for your shiny new tablet. We take you through all the official Apple accessories on offer for the iPad 2.
Read our comprehensive iPad review and our iPad 2 preview.
A range of third-party accessories will be available for the iPad 2, including cases, stands, docks, cables and screen protectors. But many of these will take a few weeks to hit the shelves. In the meantime, Apple will have a number of official iPad 2 accessories which will be sold through Apple Stores and selected retailers from tomorrow.
iPad 2 Smart Cover: $45 (polyurethane) or $79 (leather)
Apple has released a new cover for the iPad 2, dubbed the 'Smart Cover'. Described by Steve Jobs as "not a case," the Smart Cover has a magnetic flap that clips onto the side of the iPad 2, and automatically wakes and puts the iPad 2 to sleep depending on whether it is open or closed. The Smart Cover also folds into a stand and comes in 10 colours — five in Italian leather, and five in polyurethane. Leather Smart Covers are available in black, cream, navy, tan, and red, while the polyurethane Smart Cover comes in blue, green, grey, orange and pink colours.
The iPad 2's 'Smart Cover' has a magnetic flap that clips onto the side of the iPad 2. It automatically wakes and puts the iPad 2 to sleep depending on whether it is open or closed.
iPad 2 digital AV adapter: $45
The iPad 2 is capable of 1080p Full HD HDMI output, but only if you purchase the optional Apple Digital AV Adapter that plugs into the standard Apple dock connector. The Apple Digital AV Adapter mirrors what you see on your iPad on your TV or HDMI-equipped monitor, and comes with a second built-in dock connector allowing you to charge the iPad 2 at the same time.
iPad 2 camera connection kit: $39
One of the chief criticisms of the iPad 2, like the original iPad, is its lack of a USB port or a memory card reader for uploading photos. Apple's answer is the camera connection kit — it's available in USB or SD card models and means you don't have to connect the iPad 2 to your PC to upload photos. It also works with the original iPad.
iPad 2 dock: $39
The iPad 2 may be awkward to hold due to its size and if you have limited desk space at home, a dock could be ideal to save some space. The Apple iPad 2 dock has a rear dock connector for easy connection to a desktop or notebook computer, and also features an audio line-out port.
iPad 2 USB power adapter: $39
The iPad 2 power adapter lets you charge your iPad through an electrical outlet and comes with a longer cord. Of course, it also works with the original iPad.
iPad 2 dock connector to VGA adapter: $39
This cable allows users to connect an iPad 2 to an older projector or monitor without a HDMI input and display content such as photos, videos and apps on a larger screen. Unfortunately, this accessory only outputs images and video, not sound. It also works with the original iPad.

BE FREE TO GET CREATIVE! LOGO DESIGN AROUND "UrbanDigs.com"
Two main requirements: Font Focused, Tagline incorporated
1. We are more into FONT STYLE/DESIGN and then using the font to incorporate into the logo itself (colors/design). We are less interested into having some strange icon or symbol that readers have a hard time understanding how it relates to our site. But don't let that stop you from trying to tempt us!
We have the site designed so it really its a matter of creating a logo that fits in with our business and target clients - something that says:
1) Savvy real estate market analysis
2) Expert real estate advice.
3) The best market data for real estate buyers.
2. Under the logo should read text embedded in the logo design itself that reads: "Manhattan Property Real Time Analytics & Investment Strategies"
If you want to take a chance messing around with the letters 'U' in Urban and 'D' in Digs ('UD') that is fine as we have come to be known by that abbreviation in the blogosphere.
We prefer NOT to have any symbols of houses or city landscapes, even though you may want to because our site is real estate focused. I just think that is played out too much. Something unique!
Attached are three screenshots: one of MAIN PAGE and one of a CHART PAGE and one of SAMPLE FONT we might want to see what designers can do with. GOOD LUCK! Send over any questions please or request for more images.

Northwestern Minnesota, Becker County
From the town of Ulen, go east on County Road 34 for about 5.5 miles. County Road 34 undergoes a number change when it enters Becker County, becoming County Road 16. After 5.5 miles turn left (north) onto County Road 7 and head north for two miles. Turn left (west) onto County Road 18 for one-half mile to reach the southeast corner of the preserve, located to the north of the road. Park along the side of the road opposite the small landing strip.
80 acres
This preserve is dominated by mesic tallgrass prairie, with some depressions and swales. Wet prairie is more adapted to the low areas with higher soil moisture caused by poorly drained soils containing silt and clay. These wet prairie areas often have a thick mat-like layer of dead vegetation covering the ground surface. Slough sedge and grasses such as prairie cordgrass dominate these wet zones.
Rare plants of interest found at Zimmerman are the single-spiked sedge and the small white lady-slipper. White-tailed deer and eastern cottontail rabbits have been known to feed on the buds and flowers of the white lady-slipper.
Grassland birds significantly use this preserve. A few species of note that nest within the prairie are the marbled godwit, upland sandpiper and the greater prairie chicken.
Why the Conservancy Selected This Site
Northern tallgrass prairie is one of the rarest ecosystems in North America. Once a vast sea of grasses and wildflowers, much of the remnant prairies have been converted to crop fields. Zimmerman Prairie preserves a small portion of unbroken tallgrass prairie. Many prairie plants and animals thrive at this unique site.
What the Conservancy Has Done/Is Doing
Periodic controlled fire and mowing help keep brush and trees from invading and out competing the prairie wildflowers and grasses. Unfortunately, some introduced species are found on the site. Conservancy stewards are working to minimize their expansion and to reduce their impact on the native plants that have thrived here for centuries.

Check out this ad, which appeared in a 1974 issue of Vogue Magazine. Does it remind you of anything? Did you feel a faint disturbance in the Force, as if a million Star Wars fans were realizing that absolutely everything in George Lucas' seminal classic is borrowed from other sources — even the iconic phrase about a galaxy far, far away? If this magazine ad is real and not photoshopped, then it's a fascinating sign of just what a magpie Lucas really was.
Update: Various people have already pointed out the text crawl is pretty much based on the Flash Gordon serials, which I pretty much knew. Still, it's funny to think of Lucas perusing magazines and having phrases stick in his head. [Deep Glamour via Virginia Postrel]

When Angelo Chol first arrived at Arizona, the media relations department listed his hometown as Khartoum, Sudan, where he was born. Chol politely asked them to change it, to San Diego.
And when 52 teams called after he announced his intention to transfer last week, including several that made the NCAA Tournament's Sweet 16, the 6-foot-9 sophomore forward quickly narrowed his list to one. He visited San Diego State on Tuesday. He orally committed on Wednesday.
"Angelo had a lot of success here," said Ollie Goulston, his coach at Hoover High. "He wants to get back to that foundation of success. Why look elsewhere if everything he's looking for is right here?
"The opportunity to get better and come home was too good to pass up."
Chol, who doesn't turn 20 until July, will have two years of eligibility remaining after sitting out next season. But already the prospect of him pairing inside with Skylar Spencer, who'd also be a junior in 2014-15, is tantalizing: Both rate among the best shot blockers on the West Coast.
SDSU offered familiarity, certainly – a chance to play two miles from where he went to high school, a chance to reconnect with an extensive support network for the Sudanese immigrant community here. There's the veteran Aztecs coaching staff and regular trips to the NCAA Tournament and Coach Steve Fisher's high-post offense that is built for long, athletic big men.
But the word Chol kept using was "opportunity."
"I feel like there are opportunities there for me," he said.
Chol chose Arizona over North Carolina, Kansas, Washington and Alabama, and he played 22 and 23 minutes in his first two games there. But he played more than that only once since, stuck behind a 2013 recruiting class that included three big-time big men that Coach Sean Miller was compelled to put on the floor given the political blowback of benching a five-star prospect.
Chol's minutes shrank from 12.2 as a freshman to 8.5 as a sophomore. By this last postseason, he played 10 total minutes in five games (two in the Pac-12 Tournament, three in the NCAA Tournament).
He was one of the first players off Arizona's bench in the Dec. 25 final of the Diamond Head Classic against SDSU. But after surrendering a dunk on a botched defensive rotation, Miller angrily called timeout, screamed at Chol as he walked to the bench and subbed him out. Chol never got back in.
"Nothing against Coach Miller, I have a lot of respect for him," Chol said, "but at the same time it was hard. I felt like I had to keep looking over my shoulder, keep looking at the bench every time I did something to see if I would get subbed out.
"It wasn't a fun way to play. I want to be comfortable when I'm out there. I was never able to get into a rhythm. You can't do much in eight minutes per game."
Fisher has a history of taking the opposite approach, using regular minutes – as frustrating as it can be for fans at times – to build confidence and poise. It was something not lost on Chol, who grew up in the shadow of the program and said he's knows "how Coach Fisher operates."
Goulston put it like this: "It's like a running back who gets better with more carries. Angelo plays better the more minutes he gets. He's not a guy who works well in three- to six-minute stretches, where you're just in and out of the lineup."
Chol said he plans to enroll in the first session of summer school that begins later this month. That allows him to work out with the SDSU coaches and his new teammates.
But he already knows Viejas Arena well. He's undefeated there, winning the San Diego Section Division II title at Viejas as a freshman at Hoover.
"I felt like Arizona was the right place for me after high school," Chol said. "I have no regrets. I felt it was a learning experience. I learned a lot and I got better … But I've lived here most of my life. It means a lot to play for my hometown, to spend my last two years (of college) being an Aztec."
The annual Aztec Spring Caravan comes to Randy Jones All-American Grill in Mission Valley on Thursday at 5:30 p.m. Fisher is expected to attend, along with football coach Rocky Long and athletic director Jim Sterk. The cost is $20. The event will also be held at the Lumberyard Tavern and Grill in Encinitas on June 20 …
The SDSU Women's Football Academy, a one-day primer on the sport, is Saturday at 9 a.m. at the Fowler Athletics Hall of Fame. Aztecs assistant coach Brian Sipe, a former NFL quarterback, leads the instructional drills, film session and scrimmage. The cost is $15 and registration begins at 8 a.m.

15 Reasons You Won't Win 'American Idol'
Another season of 'American Idol' is nearing an end and it's got fans of reality and music television all asking the same question: "How long before 'The Voice' comes back?"
If you think you have what it takes to be music's next superstar, then, by all means, go to an audition the next time the Fox show comes near your neck of the woods. However, the odds are clearly stacked against you, so here are some ways you can tell that you won't join the ranks of Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood and David Cook:
1. Your performance attracted a record number of stray cats into the crowd.
2. Steven Tyler doesn't get quite as aroused around you when he crushed the dreams of the other contestants.
3. You kept asking the producers when you'll be required to start an affair with Paula Abdul.
4. The "dawg" that Randy was referring to was the one he thought was howling after being hit by a Buick while you were singing.
5. You told the producers that the part of the experience you were most looking forward to was the chance to meet Cee Lo Green.
6. The judges kept asking if you needed an ambulance during your performance.
7. The only endorsement deal you were offered after appearing on the show was as the "before model" for a Sucrets commercial.
8. You listed your personal musical idol as "Milli and/or Vanilli."
9. You asked if you could use a lifeline.
10. You insisted that you're almost certain the show offers its contestants lifelines.
11. You almost got into a knife fight with the judges over whether or not you're allowed to use lifelines.
12. The only job being offered to you after your performance was as your hometown's tornado siren.
13. You were the only person on a Fox broadcast to have their mic turned off live on the air who wasn't being interviewed by Bill O'Reilly.
14. Jennifer Lopez said you've got the range and moves of a 'young Elvis' and the frame and body odor of the 'Old Elvis.'
15. You've got style, wit and a unique personality that makes you a positive role model for children and there's no room for that in the music business.

And you shake it all up, then you put it in a Mason jar, and put a piece of fabric on top and a piece of ribbon around it. Then, whenever you want, just put two scoops in hot water. It's the most delicious thing in the world."

Looks like Bethesda will soon be bringing a lot more than just Fallout 3 to Steam, with users spotting some advertisements on the service advertising games like Oblivion and Morrowind.
Reader Tom sends us the above image, and while I haven't seen the same advertisement myself (nor can I see any mention of the games in the retail store), I can confirm that a listing for both "Oblivion: Game of the Year Edition" and "Morrowind: Game of the Year Edition" have magically appeared overnight in my press account.
I, incidentally, have never played any of Oblivion's expansions. Looks like that's about to change.

Hello. Firstly thank you for an excellent component that fits well as a starting point for our use. But there are a couple things I'm wondering.
1. I've created four collections and 4 "Item submission" on the front page one for each collections. But when I try to add object via "Item submission" on the font page that is not a favorite collection I get error messages. What I find is that I can just added new objects in the collection that is set as a favorite. In the back end is not a problem where I add objects in all colletions. So the question is, is this intentional or is it some place this can be configured to create objects in all collections.
2. Looks also that there is a Wish list and swap list, how can I use these in the same way that collection.

Kneading machines are widely used for kneading dough either in public catering facilities and also in baking. However, before you buy a dough mixer, you need to decide what parameters of the equipment and design features will fully comply with all your requirements.
Speaking about structural features of dough kneaders, it should be noted that key functional features of this equipment include a drive mechanism, kneading arm and bowl, the amount of which directly affects the productivity of the mixer.
Kneading bowl are generally made of stainless steel and it's form may also vary. Furthermore, it can be movable or stationary. When working with dough mixers with movable bowl are used also such appliances as bowl elevators providing lifting of the bowl with the mixed dough up to the level of the hopper of dough divider or the surface of the cooking table.
Kneading arm of dough kneading machine may have different shapes, which depends on the type of dough. For example, spiral kneading arm, typical for spiral dough kneaders allows to provide imitation of hand dough knead. As for the work features of dough mixers for stiffdough, for this purpose will be more suitable kneading arm in the form of paddle. Regardless the form, for manufacture of them is generally used stainless steel.
In different models of dough kneaders may be provided only one or two speed mode, wherein one of the two speeds is optimal for mixing components included in the formulation, while the second is intended for the formation of dough structure. Furthermore, in several models of dough kneading machines is provided automatic reversing gear, which provides easy releasing the kneading arm from sticking dough.

Mrs Timberlake's best night ever!
Better than the time her husband jumped on her head on their wedding day on the cover of PEOPLE Magazine?
Because that was in Italy. And there was no live television audience. At the Grammys though, she was front row. Seated beside Beysus. And Jay-Z poured champagne for her. And sometimes her husband put his hand on her thigh all Beckham style and she was grateful.
Have you ever seen her so happy?
Look at her, fangirling in the audience during his performance, at one point trying to dance, which is, apparently, when Duana checked out his set. And about that set...
How long was Justin Timberlake's set?
YouTube is telling us it was around 6:20 which...
He was not nominated. Apart from a 30 second cameo by Jay-Z, he performed alone -- no collaboration. It wasn't a tribute. And it was all new music, not exactly songs we've been listening to all year. And still... they give JT one of the longest spots of the night. Just as long as the Bob Marley part! The Bob Marley part, one of the best, if not the best, of the night, which opened with Bruno Mars's Locked Out Of Heaven then joined by Sting, and then joined by Damian & Ziggy Marley, and Rihanna, all those people, went the same amount of time as JT. Mumford & Sons, the eventual winners of Album of the Year, only went 4 minutes.
But he's JT, right? He's the celebrated Pips. If they want him, these are his conditions. He gets to be up there as long as he wants. If this is what he's like now, when The 20/20 Experience hasn't even dropped yet, can you imagine how much MORE he'll be next year when he's nominated for everything and wins it all?
And still, because he's punished us for so long with his acting, it's almost a relief. I'll take this, I'll take his giant musical ego, on stage for the entire f-cking telecast if that's what it has to be, over seeing him at the movies. He is, undeniably, really, really good in this format.

Code EAN 13 : 9780199535576
Disponibilité: Expédié sous 4 à 10 jours
Auteur: AUSTEN, JANE
Description du format : Livre Papier
Sense and Sensibility, the first of those metaphorical bits of "ivory" on which Jane Austen said she worked with "so fine a brush," jackhammers away at the idea that to conjecture is a vain and hopeless reflex of the mind. But I'll venture this much: If she'd done nothing else, we'd still be in awe of her. Wuthering Heights alone put Emily Brontë in the pantheon, and her sister Charlotte and their older contemporary Mary Shelley might as well have saved themselves the trouble of writing anything but Jane Eyre and Frankenstein. Sense and Sensibility, published in 1811, is at least as mighty a work as any of these, and smarter than all three put together. And it would surely impress us even more without Pride and Prejudice (1813), Mansfield Park (1814), and Emma (1815) towering just up ahead. Austen wrote its ur-version, Elinor and Marianne, when she was nineteen, a year before First Impressions, which became Pride and Prejudice; she reconceived it as Sense and Sensibility when she was twenty-two, and she was thirty-six when it finally appeared. Like most first novels, it lays out what will be its author's lasting preoccupations: the "three or four families in a country village" (which Austen told her niece, in an often-quoted letter, was "the very thing to work on"). The interlocking anxieties over marriages, estates, and ecclesiastical "livings." The secrets, deceptions, and self-deceptions that take several hundred pages to straighten out-to the extent that they get straightened out. The radical skepticism about human knowledge, human communication, and human possibility that informs almost every scene right up to the sort-of-happy ending. And the distinctive characters-the negligent or overindulgent parents, the bifurcating siblings (smart sister, beautiful sister; serious brother, coxcomb brother), the charming, corrupted young libertines. Unlike most first novels, though, Sense and Sensibility doesn't need our indulgence. It's good to go.
In the novels to come, Elinor Dashwood will morph into Anne Elliott and Elizabeth Bennet (who will morph into Emma Woodhouse); Edward Ferrars into Edmund Bertram, Mr. Knightley, Henry Tilney, and Captain Wentworth; Willoughby into George Wickham and Henry Crawford. But the characters in Sense and Sensibility stand convincingly on their own, every bit as memorable as their later avatars. If Austen doesn't have quite the Caliban-to-Ariel range of a Shakespeare, she can still conjure up and sympathize with both Mrs. Jennings-the "rather vulgar" busybody with a borderline-unwholesome interest in young people's love lives, fits of refreshing horse sense, and a ruggedly good heart-and Marianne Dashwood, a wittily observed case study in Romanticism, a compassionately observed case study in sublimated adolescent sexuality, and a humorously observed case study in humorlessness. "I should hardly call her a lively girl," Elinor observes to Edward, "-she is very earnest, very eager in all she does-sometimes talks a great deal and always with animation-but she is not often really merry." Humorlessness, in fact, may be the one thing Marianne and her eventual lifemate, Colonel Brandon, have in common. (Sorry to give that plot point away; it won't be the last one, either. So, fair warning.) The minor characters have the sort of eidetic specificity you associate with Dickens: from the gruesomely mismatched Mr. and Mrs. Palmer to Robert Ferrars, splendidly impenetrable in his microcephalic self-complacency. The major characters, on the other hand, refuse to stay narrowly "in character"; they're always recognizably themselves, yet they seem as many-sided and changeable as people out in the nonfictional world.
Elinor makes as ambivalent a heroine as Mansfield Park's notoriously hard-to-warm-up-to Fanny Price. She's affectionately protective of her sister Marianne yet overfond of zinging her: "It is not every one who has your passion for dead leaves." She's bemused at Marianne's self-dramatizing, yet she's as smug about suffering in silence as Marianne (who "would have thought herself very inexcusable" if she were able to sleep after Willoughby leaves Devonshire) is proud of suffering in Surround Sound. She can be treacherously clever, as when Lucy Steele speculates (correctly) that she may have offended Elinor by staking her claim to Edward: " "Offended me! How could you suppose so? Believe me," and Elinor spoke it with the truest sincerity, "nothing could be farther from my intention, than to give you such an idea." " Yet she can also be ponderously preachy: "One observation may, I think, be fairly drawn from the whole of the story-that all Willoughby's difficulties, have arisen from the first offense against virtue, in his behaviour to Eliza Williams. That crime has been the origin of every lesser one, and of all his present discontents." (In the rest of Austen, only the intentionally preposterous Mary in Pride and Prejudice strikes just this note: "Unhappy as the event may be for Lydia, we may draw from it this useful lesson; that loss of virtue in a female is irretrievable..."). Is Elinor simply an intelligent young woman overtaxed by having to be the grown-up of the family? Or is she an unconsciously rivalrous sibling, sick of hearing that her younger, more beautiful sister will marry more advantageously? Or both? Or what? It's not that Austen doesn't have a clear conception of her-it's that she doesn't have a simple conception. Elinor is the character you know the most about, since Austen tells most of the story from her point of view, and consequently she's the one you're least able to nail with a couple of adjectives or a single defining moment.
Edward bothers us, too. He's a dreamboat only for a woman of Elinor's limited expectations: independent-minded yet passive and depressive, forthright and honorable yet engaged in a book-long cover-up. (It's a tour de force on Austen's part to present a character so burdened with a secret that we see his natural behavior only long after we've gotten used to him.) At his strongest and most appealing-to Elinor, at least-he's a clear-your-mind-of-cant kind of guy: "I am not fond of nettles, or thistles, or heath blossoms.... A troop of tidy, happy villagers please me better than the finest banditti in the world." But he can also be a Hamlet-like whiner, complaining about his own idleness and vowing that his sons will be brought up "to be as unlike myself as possible. In feeling, in action, in condition, in every thing." For my money, Edward is the least likable of Austen's heroes, while his opposite number, Willoughby, is the most sympathetic of her libertines: smarter than Pride and Prejudice's Wickham (a loser who gets stuck with the "noisy" and virtually portionless Lydia Bennet) and more warmhearted than Mansfield Park's textbook narcissist Henry Crawford. Willoughby may strike trendy Wordsworthian poses with his effusions on cottages ("I consider it as the only form of building in which happiness is attainable"), but at least he has enough sense to abhor his own callowness, and enough sexy boldness to discompose even the rational Elinor. "She felt that his influence over her mind was heightened by circumstances which ought not in reason to have weight; by that person of uncommon attraction, that open, affectionate, and lively manner which it was no merit to possess..." His opening line when he at last explains to her what he's been up to ("Tell me honestly, do you think me most a knave or a fool?") is one of those Byronic flourishes that make him the person in Sense and Sensibility you'd most want to dine with and least want to trust.

Some observers see this second weekend in August, the 8th thru the 10th, 1969, as effectively the end of the sixties' counterculture as seen through rose colored glasses. The Vietnam War (which was never formally declared a war) was grinding on. In 1969 there would be 11,616 US military deaths, the second highest count during the war; almost 22,000 Vietnamese soldiers would be killed that year. This week would see the deaths of 169 US military personnel, over the weekend alone some 84 US soldiers would die. And every night TV newscasts were blanketed with those images. Vietnam is often characterized as the "living-room war" or the "television war." It was the first war to be methodically documented nightly on television, and at a moment when TV was becoming a compelling presence in daily life.
Other news that weekend included the discovery of the missing plane, Hawthorne-Nevada Airlines, Flight 708, that crashed just west of Lone Pine on February 18, killing all 35 passengers and crew. It was found on the eastern slope of Mount Whitney at an elevation of approximately 11,770 feet.
On August 8, just six days after it was published in the San Francisco Chronicle, the Zodiac Killer's first unsigned encrypted message was solved by a Salinas, California high school teacher, Donald Harden, and his wife Bettye. The Zodiac Killer was a serial killer who operated in the Bay area in the late 1960's. His name was coined by a series of taunting letters and cryptograms he sent to police and newspapers until about 1974. The initial 408-symbol cryptogram stated, among other things, that the Zodiac enjoyed "killing people because it is so much fun." Harden was an amateur cryptographer and he reportedly took about 20 hours to break the code. Navy cryptographers had attempted to solve it, but without success. Of course some 40 years later, the identity of the Zodiac Killer still remains unsolved.
On the 9th, President Richard Nixon announced the nomination of Helen D. Bentley as a Member of the Federal Maritime Commission. Nixon also addressed the nation about domestic programs and a tax reform bill following its passage by the House of Representatives.
That weekend also saw the deaths of Russ Morgan, orchestra leader as well as a long time performer at the Dunes in Las Vegas. Otmar Freiherr von Verschuer, crackpot eugenicist and Nazi physician, died in an automobile accident. Nobel Prize Laureate Cecil Frank Powell died while walking in the foothills of the Alps; he was 66 years of age. A bench with a commemorative plaque can be seen near the site of his death.
On Friday the 8th, Disneyland opened their doors to the new and soon to be classic attraction, the Haunted Mansion. Adorned with wrought iron fencing and surrounded by creepy tombstones, Walt Disney had envisioned the ghoulish Southern-style mansion even before the park opened in the 1954. The Haunted Mansion was originally seen as a walk-through experience, with cast members walking their guests /victims from one scene to the next as the netherworld unfolds. "Welcome fooolish mortals to the Haunted Mansion. I am your host, your ghost host. Ha, ha, ha, ha ..."
Meanwhile, in sports, the New York Mets beat the Atlanta Braves behind the eventual 1969 Cy Young winner Tom Seaver. At this point in this, their Cinderella season, the Mets were still in second place, 8 and a half games back. The game on Saturday was 3 hours and 14 minutes long and the Mets won 5 to 3 on 13 hits. Seaver would finish his career with 311 wins, 3,640 strikeouts and a 2.86 era in a 20-year career. In 1992, he was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame by the highest percentage ever (98.8%).
As for my LA Dodgers, on Sunday they beat the Chicago Cubs 4 to 2 behind the pitching of Don Sutton winning his 14th game of the year, Pete Mikkelsen got the save. Sutton would also wind up in the Hall of Fame, selected in 1998 with a career won lost mark of 324-256.
The 1969 Pikes Peak Marathon, an annual foot race that begins at the base of Pikes Peak in Manitou Springs, Colorado, and climbs over 7,700 feet to the peak at 14,115 feet, was won by Steve Gachupin, who in his career would win the event 6 times in his 21 tries up the mountain.
In professional bike racing news, the World Championship was won by Harm Ottenbros in Zolder, Belgium, edging out the favorite Julien Stevens by just a few centimeters.
But of course, the big news, the chilling news that weekend, was the seemingly random and grisly murders in Beverly Hills and the Los Feliz district...
On August 9th, a hot, quiet Saturday night -- one of the killers would later comment that you could hear the sound of ice rattling in cocktail shakers up and down the Benedict Canyon -- in a home rented by Roman Polanski and his wife Sharon Tate at 10050 Cielo Drive in Beverly Hills, Wojciech Frykowski, Abigail Folger, Jay Sebring and Steven Parent and a eight and a half months pregnant Tate were murdered in violent blood bath, as bizarre, gruesome and insane slaughter of innocents that might ever occur in any dystopia. Less than two days later another grisly murder occurred in the Los Feliz district -- this time it was supermarket executive Leno LaBianca and his wife Rosemary. Killed in a similarly ghastly manner, this time a fork was used to carve the word WAR on Leno LaBianca's stomach and left sticking out of his corpse. Authorities would take nearly four months to track down Charles Manson and his Family. And when they were arrested and prosecuted, the world discovered a terrifying mix of a counterculture gone mad and staggering mind-control. Manson, Charles "Tex" Watson, Susan Atkins, and Patricia Krenwinkel's trials ended in 1971; they were all given the death penalty, though later that was over-turned by the state of California, commuting their sentences to life in prison. Another family member, Linda Kasabian, who stood watch at the Tate house, turned states evidence and served no time.
Roman Polanski (The Fearless Vampire Killers, Rosemary's Baby, Chinatown, The Pianist), who was out of town, was not Manson's target. The victims were in the wrong house at the wrong time. Manson, an aspiring singer-songwriter and an occasional friend of Beach Boy Dennis Wilson, chose the Cielo Drive house because he had once tried to get a record deal from a producer who used to live there, Terry Melcher, the son of Doris Day, and Manson knew the layout of the house. Past residents included Cary Grant and his wife Dyan Cannon, Henry Fonda, Mark Lindsay from Paul Revere & the Raiders and Candice Bergen. The final resident of the original Cielo Drive house was Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails, who moved into the house in the early 1990s and built a recording studio there. The studio dubbed Pig, or sometimes Le Pig, was an allusion to the fact that Susan Atkins wrote "Pig" in Tate's blood on the front door of the house during the murders. The Nine Inch Nails ep Broken and their classic 1994 album The Downward Spiral were recorded there, as well as Marilyn Manson's debut album Portrait of an American Family. In December 1993 Reznor moved out of the house, taking with him the original front door, explaining that "there was too much history in that house for me to handle." He insists that he didn't know about the murders when he bought the house, though I thought there was a law on the books requiring brokers to tell buyers about crimes that may have taken place in a home; the real estate term is 'stigmatized properties.' Then again, what do I know? In the late 1990's the house was demolished and replaced with a new mansion and a new street address of 10066 Cielo Drive.

I highly encourage people to blog. I know that not everyone is a writer, but I think that blogging helps build some extremely valuable skills: communication skills. We all need them, and they help us in our careers, no matter what your job.
At SQLServerCentral, we've had a blog section for a number of years. We took the open source Blog.Text project from Microsoft originally, and then migrated to the free Community Server software. At some point we upgraded to a real license, and it's worked OK. I wouldn't say I think this is a great use of Community Server, especially as it's embedded in the rest of the SSC site.
However, our license is limited to 100 blogs. We have debated on an upgrade, but the Community Server people have been reluctant to increase our blog license without increasing the forums, photos, etc. and they want a fairly significant 5 figure price tag. I'm not sure it's worth it to us, especially as blogs don't generate a lot of traffic.
I still get requests for blogs, and for the most part we are syndicating blogs from people and just displaying the posts from other sites. I suggest to everyone as I don't have a good backup/export system and most of the main blog platforms (blogger, wordpress, etc) have this built in.
As I needed to add a new one, I removed a few blogs today. I went through the list and checked a few of the blogs, and found a number that had never had a post. So I removed them to make space and keep us at 100 blogs.
I hate to remove the change for blogging from people, but if someone is not blogging at all, then I need the space for now. I'm hoping that we'll consider moving to a new platform, but like everything else, it's a question of resources to integrate something else like WordPress into our site, or write our own software.

Atrial fibrillation is the most common cardiac arrhythmia, or irregular heartbeat. It may cause no symptoms, but it is often associated with palpitations, fainting, chest pain or congestive heart failure.
In this Q&A, Eckman describes the scope of his project and how it could impact patient care.
What are the specifics behind your research?
"The title of my project is 'Impact of a Quality Improvement and Education Initiative on 'Appropriate' Use of Anticoagulant Therapy in Women with Atrial Fibrillation,' and it is funded by a grant from the Pfizer Medical Education Group. Atrial fibrillation is the most common significant cardiac rhythm disorder and is also the most powerful common risk factor for stroke—about 15 percent of all strokes in the U.S. are attributable to atrial fibrillation. Its frequency increases with age, reaching a prevalence of 10 percent in people over age 80. With the aging of the U.S. population, the prevalence of atrial fibrillation will increase substantially from over 2.2 million to more than 3 million by the year 2020. In particular, the risk of stroke in women is underappreciated.
"A recent study showed middle-aged women to be at significantly increased risk of death from atrial fibrillation. Furthermore, studies have shown that populations of women at equivalent risk of stroke are less likely to receive anticoagulant therapy than men. Over the past decade, numerous randomized trials have established that anticoagulation can significantly reduce the stroke risk posed by atrial fibrillation. However, studies have documented widespread underutilization of this therapy, or at times, inappropriate use. As a result the recognition of stroke risk from atrial fibrillation and its prevention have become a high profile issue for many organizations, including UC Health. The American College of Physicians recently has moved ahead with an initiative on atrial fibrillation and stroke prevention. Similar initiatives have been promulgated by the American Heart Association and treatment guidelines continue to be publicized by the American College of Chest Physicians and the American College of Cardiology."
What will you do to conduct this research?
"This is a two-year-long project to develop an educational program and a performance improvement initiative around the clinical issue of oral anticoagulation therapy for patients with atrial fibrillation in UC Health's primary care network practices and the Hoxworth-based ambulatory practices of the division of general internal medicine. We will work hand-in-hand with the leadership of UC Health's primary care network, general medicine's ambulatory hospital-based practices and with the performance improvement teams at the practice sites to tailor the program to their needs. The research team consists of members of the Department of Neurology and Rehabilitation Medicine's Stroke Team—Drs. Brett Kissela, Matt Flaherty and Dawn Kleindorfer—Dr. Jack Kues and Barbara Speer in the Center for Continuous Professional Development, members of UC's Center for Health Informatics (CHI)—Brett Harnett, MS, Pete Baker and Dave Hoskins—Ruth Wise from the division of general internal medicine, Tony Leonard, PhD, from family and community medicine, Lora Arduser, PhD, from the department of English on the main campus and Megan Sullivan, quality manager for UC Physicians.
"As part of the performance improvement intervention we will use clinical information from UC's clinical data warehouse to calculate patient-specific stroke and bleeding risks for all of UC Health's ambulatory patients with an active diagnosis of atrial fibrillation and determine current blood-thinning therapy. In addition, once the annual stroke and major hemorrhage rates have been calculated, we will run each case through a decision analytic model we have developed that estimates the gain or loss in quality-adjusted life expectancy resulting from the use of anticoagulant therapy, or warfarin in the base case, for each individual patient. Using a decision analytic model allows us to examine tradeoffs between the risks and benefits of anticoagulant therapy. Finally, current blood thinning therapy determined from the clinical data warehouse will be classified as either concordant or discordant with model recommendations as above. We will share that information with physicians and practices and the practice-based performance improvement teams."
Why is this important? How could this improve patient care or save money?
"At the completion of this project we will have accomplished several important goals: the development and dissemination of a valuable educational activity through our local health care system's primary care network; and development, dissemination and testing of a quality improvement intervention to improve decision making about oral anticoagulation therapy for patients with atrial fibrillation. Given the broadening use of electronic health records, if this intervention proves effective, it should be scalable and generalizable to other sites and health care systems in the United States. This project requires a retrospective chart review to identify atrial patients to which the decision support tool is applied. However, the real impact of this tool is at the point of care when patients are diagnosed with atrial fibrillation and physicians are discussing treatment plans with patients. This tool is an adjunct to patient education and engagement and should have a direct impact on patient adherence as well as other barriers to optimal care."

Thank goodness there are a few sentinels on television (albeit comedians producing what the rest of the corporate media dismissively calls "fake news") like Stephen Colbert willing to expose the absolute lunacy of U.S. political campaign finance laws to the merciless ridicule they so richly deserve. Today, Colbert appeared at the FEC to request a "media exemption" for his putative SuperPAC:
For those unfamiliar with the background, MEDIAite provides a brief synopsis:
Here's the story so far. First, Colbert was told he the PAC ran up against corporate "in-kind donation" rules by discussing it on his Viacom-owned show. Fortunately his "personal lawyer" (former FEC Chairman Trevor Potter) helped show him a loophole where all he needed to do was change it to a SuperPAC by writing the word "Super" on the cover letter. Then, this week, he was told by Viacom lawyers that he could no longer legally speak about his SuperPAC on air. Potter came to the rescue again by telling him about the "media exemption" that the many PAC-holders on Fox News have that claims they are just "reporting the news." So, once Colbert gets the exemption, he should be able to talk about and support as many candidates and issues as he wants.
In a somewhat less fucked-upped world, another arm of Viacom (i.e., CBS News) would presumably be doing the heavy lifting here…

Our journey began with the monks of the Sint Stefanus Monastery way back in 1295. After spending centuries brewing their beer for the local community in Ghent, they passed the St. Stefanus recipe into the skilled and caring hands of the Van Steenberge family – who still guard it today.
With this recipe came the unique monastic yeast that we add to every bottle and keg. This brings the beer to life and allows the flavours to mature for three months in our ageing chamber. But this journey doesn't end when we release our bottles; it keeps going until your very first sip. Whether you drink it right away or age it and see how the flavours develop, your experience will be completely different every time.

Few pieces of music show their emotions as brazenly as Alban Berg's 1935 Violin Concerto.
The composer created it to commemorate the untimely death of 18-year-old Alma Manon Gropius, the daughter of his friends, socialite Alma Mahler and architect Walter Gropius, and it is full of the physical anguish of a young woman's demise and the suffering of those around her. The concerto, which borrows directly from earlier Bach ideas, is notoriously difficult to convey.
Violinist Rachel Barton Pine steps up to the challenge in a concert with the Boulder Philharmonic Orchestra Jan. 11. The promising winter's night also includes music by Mahler (one-time husband of Alma senior) and Bach himself.
The concert is 7:30 p.m. at Macky Auditorium on the CU campus, Boulder, $13-$70 ($5 for students)

Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance Review
Actor Nicolas Cage has a lot in common with his superhero counterpart Ghost Rider featured once again on the big screen in the pseudo-sequel Spirit of Vengeance. Much like the daemon-infested crime fighter Cage has the power to make anything he touches explode into a wild blazing inferno thanks to his unique performance techniques. Cage does not simply deliver a line he detonates it; He does not simply react to his co-stars he executes an interpretive dance; He does not simply throw a punch he unleashes physical armageddon. Occasionally the style provokes unintentional laugher but in Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance anything less would be unrealistic.
The new adventure finds Ghost Rider aka Johnny Blaze a former stunt man cursed after begging the Devil to save his father's life hiding out in Eastern Europe where he believes his soul-sucking alter-ego can remain silent. But Blaze's TLC session is cut short when Moreau (Idris Elba) an Algerian priest with connections to the Devil's latest diabolical plan arrives. Seems Satan who walks the Earth under the alias Roarke is hellbent on inhabiting Danny the young son of Nadya who made her own deal with the Prince of Darkness. If he succeeds Roarke will continue existing in the world of man—so of course it's up to Ghost Rider to put the kibosh on the end-of-the-world scenario.
If you didn't see the first Ghost Rider movie don't fret; the sequel isn't confined by any established mythology nor is it that concerned with the logic of its own story. Directors Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor employ a manic eye for action displayed in earlier films like Crank and Gamer shooting motorcycle chases shootouts and flaming skull transformations with adrenaline-infused camerawork that should leave anyone susceptible to motion sickness running to the bathroom. The 3-D transfer of the movie is a non-factor the post-convereted stereoscopic effects rarely intrude on the zippy camerawork. Unlike the Crank films Ghost Rider contends with its script dragging when the movie tries to explain what the heck is going on and only picking up when the directing duo and Nic Cage are allowed to play.
A host of solid supporting actors breath traces of life into half-baked villain and characters—Ciaran Hinds stands out as Roarke playing him like a forgotten Dick Tracy baddie—but at the end of the day Spirit of Vengeance is all Cage's show. With the fire of hell burning inside Blaze is in a constant fight against himself and Cage embodies the monstrous struggle with cockeyed rage and growling vocals. Neveldine and Taylor make the most of their larger-than-life lead and Cage spends most of the film teetering on the edge ballistic fury. That's not to say the movie doesn't take its quiet moments–a scene between Cage and Elba where Blaze begs Moreau to remove the Ghost Rider curse is surprisingly dramatic—but the movie has goals: to rattle you at 100 miles per hour.
Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance isn't as fun flashy or poignant as some of its recent comic book contemporaries but for 90 minutes Neveldine and Taylor revel in the ridiculous wringing their character and lead actor for every ounce of mayhem. This is a greasy gritty grunge Ghost Rider purposefully disgusting and low-fi. While a stronger emphasis on story would only help the spotty action flick Spirit of Vengeance proves a decent alternative to the faithful boyscouts and friendly neighborhoood superheroes that fill our big screen blockbusters. Ghost Rider belches magma pisses fire and plays nasty—you probably already know if this movie is for you.

SKF recognized as a leader within sustainability
2015 September 18, 08:30 CEST
For the 16th year in a row, SKF has been included in the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index
Gothenburg, Sweden, 18 September 2015: For the 16thyear running, SKF has been listed as one of the world's most sustainable companies by the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index (DJSI).
Supply chain management, ensuring a transparent tax strategy and its overall environmental management programme were three areas in which the Group ranked highly.
Rob Jenkinson, Director of Sustainability, says, "We have been working to integrate sustainability into the business for a long time now, and it is good to receive this recognition from the DJSI once again.
"Our products and solutions help enable the transformation into a more energy and carbon efficient world. Our energy use has reduced in absolute terms by 16% since 2006, a period of overall production growth for SKF. By focusing on energy efficiency, we have been able to reduce carbon emissions as well as save a significant amount of money."
One of the year's most significant developments with regards to the Group's climate strategy, BeyondZero, was the award of a global ISO 50001 certification, announced in February. 38 manufacturing facilities, representing some 90% of the Group's total direct energy use, have implemented SKF's energy management system, contributing to a reduction in energy use and greenhouse gas emissions across the value chain.
The Dow Jones Sustainability Index was launched in 1999 and is the longest-running global sustainability benchmark. In addition, SKF is also a member of the FTSE4Good Index and Ethibel Sustainability Index (ESI) Excellence Europe.
