1. | stupid o'clock | ||
Coined by a graduate student while pursuing her PhD and teaching a full load of courses:
The time of day roughly characterized as being between 2:00 am - 6:00 am (depending upon your personal nocturnal patterns and time zone). It is the time when 'normal' people are asleep, because they have to be up and about during working hours the next day. You are exhausted and want very much to be asleep, too. However, you are awake at stupid o'clock because: (1) you are grouchily doing work to meet a deadline (perhaps because you waited until the last minute to finish it or have perfectionist tendencies), (2) you haven't yet gone to bed because you are too foolish/lazy to stop goofing off (surfing the net, talking to friends, watching TV/movies, playing video games, reading a book, etc.), (3) you have to wake up much earlier than your usual time for an important event (which may be an unwanted obligation or an event you desire to attend), (4) you experience tremendous inspiration and simply cannot stop writing, painting, coding, constructing or otherwise working on your personal project, whatever it might be (a rare usage of the term). 1. I had insomnia, so I was up until stupid o'clock learning new words on Urban Dictionary.
2. I stayed awake until stupid o'clock finishing the paper that was due today. 3. I can't believe I have to get up at stupid o'clock to meet with my idiot boss. 4. We have to leave the house at stupid o'clock to catch our plane. 5. The party lasted until stupid o'clock, but we all had a lot of fun! 6. Why, yes, it WAS stupid o'clock when I composed this entry. |
2. | Stupid O'clock | ||
Very late at night of very early in the morning. "No can do mate, I've got to be up at stupid o'clock to take the wife to the airport"
"We all sat up drinking to stupid o'clock last night" |
3. | stupid o'clock | ||
The specific period during the day responsible for decreasing the ability to make good decisions and create coherent, logical statements and/or thoughts. Usually a frequent occurrence that strikes in no specific pattern other than the time at which it occurs. The use of substances usually ensues after the period begins, but the former is not the cause of the latter. Brian: Hey, so how'd you do on your psych exam this morning?
Justin: Well, I was studying pretty well, and then it hit stupid o'clock... Brian:Oh, no man... Chris: Yo, why is the weed gone, and why is "Penis" carved into the wall? Brian: Are you sure you're just not making excuses for smoking? Justin: no way, I swear on my life I did it 20 minutes into stupid o'clock! Brian: I guess... but why "Penis"? Gay. Justin: ... |
4. | Stupid O'Clock | ||
Stupid O'Clock is any time after midnight and before 8AM, or hours outside of your natural waking life.
For example, if you have been kept up late and you feel as though you should be asleep, this is stupid O'clock. See also, 'Stupid Early'. He came to pick me up at stupid O'clock this morning.. I wan't even awake.
5. | Stupid O'clock | ||
This is the time of day when one has retired to their place of sleep, to end a tiresome day. When suddenly, they are awoken by a mind boggling thought they had earlier that day. The time when awoken, would be referred to as 'stupid o'clock'. Michael: " oh no , i forgot what my homework was. I didn't write detailed enough note in my folder."
Stephanie: "you'll think of it at like Stupid O'clock tonight" |
6. | Stupid o'clock | ||
Any time before 8 am I had to get up at stupid o'clock
7. | stupid o'clock | ||
The state of being achieved by remaining awake for extended periods of time. Common symptoms are euphoria, minor delusional behavior, and general silliness.
Distinguishable from sleep deprivation by the lack of paranoia that often accompanies the latter condition. "We were up til stupid o'clock last night."
(Immediately after someone attempts to stage dive off the sofa onto the coffee table while watching a Madonna video): "Yeah, it's definitely stupid o'clock." |

Just curious if anyone has any experience. They have a retail store in Seattle, and it looks pretty big. I always pass by it when I'm going to one of my favorite cigar shops to hang out and always see it on the way there.
How does it compare to maybe some of the other brands, if anyone knows?
I'd like to get in there sometime soon and browse their selection.

Bold New Approach
to Low-Risk Investing
It's easy to pick stocks that are paying high dividends. The challenge is to find those that continue to pay quarter after quarter.
The new Zacks Income Plus Investor aims for that and much more.
It seeks sustained 3%, 5%, even 10% dividend stocks with good growth potential. Plus, it throws other low-risk assets into the mix like REITs, MLPs, special ETFs and Covered Calls. You'll be shown exactly what to do and when to do it.
Income Plus offers peace of mind, yet looks to outperform not only CDs and T-Notes but also the market. It's an ideal counter-balance to market pullbacks and volatility, and is essential for pre- and post-retirement planning.

Very different. Is that an earlier model ? Those machines are GREAT code machines, especially if you dedicate it to 1 manufacturer. They are a bit of a pain to change , ( compared to a HPC 1200) I have a friend who has a huge selection of parts, spare machines etc. If your interested just PM me.

Children's nap mats from California, New York, Washington, Alaska, Massachusetts, Vermont and Connecticut contain harmful flame retardant chemicals, according to independent testing commissioned by the Center for Environmental Health (CEH). The flame retardant chemicals found in the nap mats, which are used in daycares nationwide, have been linked to cancer, genetic damage, impacts on fertility and reproductive health, allergies, hormone disruption, and other serious health problems.

Series: What I Wish My Pastor Knew About... The Life of a Scientist
Andy Crouch examines the life of a scientist based on his experience of walking alongside his wife Catherine, an experimental physicist. That relationship has shown him that a life in science is a journey "into a set of virtues," of cultivating a specific character suited to the particular demands of research and investigation. Crouch's hope is to persuade pastors and others in the church to prayerfully support the scientific endeavor as a reflection of God's image in humankind as well as offers some suggestions for ministering to their needs.
Comparing Interpretations of Genesis 1
For concordists, the temptation is to interpret every Bible verse to match the current scientific picture. For non-concordists, the temptation is to interpret every Bible verse that appears to disagree with science as figurative.
Does Resurrection Contradict Science?
So what then does Resurrection mean? For Benedict it represents a new dimension of reality breaking through into human experience. It is not a violation of the old; it is the manifestation of something new.

Denis Alexander on Understanding Creation Theology
In this video Conversation, Denis Alexander asserts that contemporary Christians are not taking the early chapters of Genesis seriously enough.
A Scientific Commentary on Genesis 7:11
Although committed to the principle of sola Scriptura, Calvin recognized that the Bible would have been written in terms its original recipients would have understood. Calvin inherited the medieval cosmology of his time, a way of viewing the world heavily influenced by Greek thought and one which was about to receive shocks from astronomers such as Copernicus and Galileo. But not just yet.
Awe in Science
If we can understand the experiences of the people who work every day in the lab, our dialogues concerning science and religion will be far more fruitful.
Series: Harmonizing Science, Ethics, and Praxis
In this three-part series, Cal DeWitt offers insights and examples of why science and ethics must work together to help us make informed, practical decisions within our society. DeWitt's science-ethics-praxis model provides a framework by which we can live more effectively as God's stewards.
Augustine of Hippo and Two Books Theology, Part 2
Augustine had a great deal to say about those chapters in Genesis that are especially controversial within Christianity today.
Series: To Serve and Preserve—Genesis 2 and the Human Calling
In this series, David Buller pays careful attention to the original language and cultural context of Genesis 2, revealing that our responsibility to care for creation is a sacred task given to us by God, not merely a modern secular activity. By taking Scripture seriously, we learn that we have a God-given mandate to be diligent stewards of His creation.
Introducing the BioLogos Navigator
Part of BioLogos mission is to show how all things hold together in Christ—to show how a Christian worldview integrates the knowledge we have of God through the Scriptures with the knowledge we have of God through the other areas in which He reveals himself as Creator and Redeemer.
Katharine Hayhoe: Evangelical Christian, Climate Scientist
As an Evangelical and a scientist, Katharine Hayhoe is already a member of a rare breed. As a climate change researcher who is also married to an evangelical Christian pastor, she is nearly one of a kind.
Can Science Ever Know Enough?
To say something is poetic is not to declare it ultimately untrue, futile and meaningless—it is to say it is more profound and meaningful and true than many other modes of expression.
Series: Genesis Through Ancient Eyes
In this talk, originally delivered at the BioLogos President's Circle meeting in October 2012, Dr. John Walton discusses the origin stories of Genesis 1-3, and why their focus on function and archetypes mean there is no Biblical narrative of material origins.
Series: Pre-Modern Readings on Genesis 1
Many people assume that until Darwin came along, devout Christians everywhere read and understood Genesis in the same way. But Dr. Pak points out that some of the most revered figures in Christian history--Origen, Augustine, Aquinas, Luther, and Calvin--offered insightful but distinctive interpretations of the text that are often overlooked today. First presented at a symposium in Raleigh, NC, Dr. Pak's paper is presented here as a three part series.
Science and Faith on a Secular Campus
While many Christian colleges actively seek to help their students engage issues of faith and science constructively, few secular colleges are active in promoting the conversation. As a professor at a secular school, how can I encourage my students to authentic engagement and dialogue on science and faith issues?
The Randomness Project
It is not uncommon to hear voices proclaiming that biology and physics have shown us that—at fundamental levels—nature is random, hence meaningless, purposeless, and without a creator. But how might God work providentially through indeterminate processes? The John Templeton Foundation has provided a generous grant of $1.69 million to support a new research initiative on the theme of Randomness and Divine providence.
The Sorrows and Joys of Teaching Evolution at an Evangelical Christian University
As a biology professor, I have the profound privilege of teaching the principles of evolutionary biology to a variety of students. As one might expect, teaching this subject matter at times engenders controversy, crises of faith, anger and fear in students (and others).
Series: Asa Gray and Charles Darwin Discuss Evolution and Design
Many Christians believe that they face a painful choice-- either life was designed by God or it is an evolutionary product of natural selection. Charles Darwin himself believed in this dichotomy, and people ever since have felt the need to "choose sides". However, looking back at history, we find that one of Darwin's chief scientific colleagues, Asa Gray, did not share this perspective. In this three-part essay, part 1 charts the relationship of Asa Gray and Charles Darwin. Part 2 describes Darwin's struggle with the problem of natural evil and design in nature, and part 3 explores how Asa Gray was able to embrace evolution without rejecting the idea of design.
David Lack and Darwin's Finches
Considering the immense popularity of "Darwin's finches", it is quite surprising to learn that Charles Darwin himself had very little to say about them. In fact, it was actually David Lack, one century later, who conducted the critical research that immortalized the finches in biology textbooks and popular lore.

By Rebecca Silverstein
While we love watching Alyson Hannigan every week on "How I Met Your Mother" and we can't wait to see her in "American Reunion," our favorite of her many roles is mom to her daughter, Satyana. And this weekend, motherhood took center stage for the actress as she helped Pull-Ups Training Pants to show parents the fun and easy way to potty train -- with the Potty Dance! Keep reading as we chat with Alyson about her latest pregnancy, why she doesn't have a nanny, and more.
Wonderwall: Congrats on your pregnancy! How is your daughter, Satyana, dealing with the idea of having a new brother or sister?
Alyson Hannigan: Oh, she's super, super excited! She is already a great big sister, and she's very excited about the baby. She rubs lotion on my belly and talks to the baby, and it's very sweet.
WW: How did you and your husband, Alexis Denisof, break the news to her?
AH: We were all emotional. I don't know what we said, but basically we told her she was going to get to be a big sister. She was like, "OK! Can we read a book?" We were like, that was bigger for us then it was for her. It took her a little while to process, but then she was really on board. The next day, she was like, "Mommy, do you still have the baby in your belly?" She would ask me that for a few weeks.
WW: Are you guys hoping for a boy or girl?
AH: Honestly, I did not care one way or the other. As long as the baby's healthy and happy, I'm very, very happy. We do know what it is -- we haven't said yet, but we do know.
WW: How do you balance motherhood and filming "How I Met Your Mother"?
AH: My husband is incredibly supportive, and that's wonderful because we don't have a nanny, so it's just the two of us doing it. It's definitely hard to balance at times, but we make it work. We have a big chalkboard that's divided into calendar dates, and that's how we live. We're like, "OK, let's not over-schedule things." We still want to have enough time to have our family time. We just try to balance it as best we can. We have days where it's like, "OK, that day wasn't so balanced," but then we'll make up for it by not having anything during the weekend or just having "us" time.
WW: How is this pregnancy different from your first one?
AH: It's good! I'm more tired, mainly because I have an almost-3-year-old that won't let me nap, but actually it's going pretty well after the first trimester. The first trimester was not terrible, but it was definitely harder then the first [time]. I had stronger cravings the first time around. I feel like this baby is very mellow. I have more likes than I normally do -- like, things that didn't really appeal to me before, I like now. But with my first child, I would get a craving, and it was like, "Get out of my way; I am going to find this food!" But with this time, it's more like, "Oh yeah, that would be nice."
WW: What's your favorite time of day with Satyana?
AH: I love all of it really. She's just such a fun person to hang out with. I just love when we are playing, and she's so creative and imaginative. She'll make up games and songs and dances. It's a joy to be around her.
WW: What's the best motherhood tip you've been given?
AH: The best motherhood tip would probably be to make things fun. That's why the Potty Dance Party is right up my alley, because if you can make a task fun, then it's just going to be a lot easier to get it done for all of you: for Mom, Dad and the kid. It's just being creative about things you to need to accomplish and how to make them fun.
WW: That's very un-Hollywood of you to not have a nanny.
AH: Boy, have there been times where we are like, "What are we doing? We need a nanny!" We have one person that will babysit once a week for us, so we can still have date night. But we love it! Luckily, as two actors, we are in the position where we can do that. A lot of people don't have that option. Both parents do have to go to work, but fortunately for us, it's OK, and he was willing to take a backseat for his career so that we could all three go to my work and do it ourselves. We'll see what happens with the second one, though. We'll definitely need somebody!
WW: On Saturday, you threw a Pull-Ups Potty Dance Party to help show how easy potty training can be. How did you get involved with Pull-Ups Training Pants?
AH: Well, Pull-Ups have saved me! My daughter absolutely adores them, so it was just a natural partnership. And when they asked my to host the Potty Dance Party, I was thrilled, because who doesn't love a party? And my daughter absolutely loves to dance, so it was just a great way for parents to pick a day and start potty training. It can be daunting!
WW: Does your daughter do the Potty Dance?
AH: She was doing it this morning, and hopefully she'll want to do it today. Her dancing is anything from, yes, a choreographed dance, but also she will say, "Oh, mommy, I'm dancing," but will be doing something a lot more like yoga, where she's just basically stretching her legs in weird positions. But she thinks that's dance, so I encourage it.
WW: You also have "American Reunion" coming up. When you started the series, did you think it would turn into four movies?
AH: I had no idea! No, not at all. And even if there was talk of the sequel in the contract of the first one, I said, "Well, my character wouldn't be in the sequel," and they agreed, so they took my sequel clause out. She leaves in the first movie, so there wouldn't be any more. And here we are, four films later, still doing it. I think it's fantastic! It's just as good as the first one, if not better.
WW: Who do you think has changed most in the cast?
AH: I feel like I've changed the most, because I've gone from my early 20s to now. I'm just a complete mom, and I love it so much. I feel like I'm the most boring one, because I really just get a kick out of being a mom and "Hey, anybody want to go to a potty dance party?" This is what gets me excited.
WW: Well, the Potty Dance Party is kind of like a dance club.
AH: It is a dance club! It's the dance club I want to be at!

Doing what I want...
I know at the end of Me-Made June 11 I was feeling burnt out with taking my own photos like everybody else who participated, but then again if there was no difficulty involved then it wouldn't be a challenge right? I like challenges, and I like doing this one.
In the days leading up to the last one (or during, I can't remember now) I read someone's blog post that was a scathing criticism of the challenge, and also of the blogs who joined in, which did make me question myself and my own reasons for participating. Do I lose my status as a "sewing blog" (inverted commas are intentionally ironic, there) if I joined in a personal self-styling process? Does taking photos of the clothes I have spent time and effort in making with my own two hands, constitute a shallow or egotistical attitude? I have decided that it does not. I'm proud that I make my own clothes, and I enjoy styling and mixing up my own creations in new and interesting ways. Sure, some of my self-stylings work better than others, and I would be lying if I said that I didn't occasionally look at some of my own outfit photos and cringe, but the truth is the bad outfits and photos have been very helpful to me. Like everybody, I have got my favourite garments, which I sometimes hang on to for far longer than I should... well the camera doesn't lie, and has been the impetus for the tossing of several of my less wonderful garments.
So yah... long and short of it; I'm going there again!
'I, Carolyn of Handmade by Carolyn, sign up as a participant of Self-Stitched-Sept '11. I endeavour to wear all handmade, barring undies and tights each day for the duration of September 2011. That is, I will be wearing undies and tights of course, but not of the handmade variety!!'
so, I'm allowing myself RTW undies and tights... neither of which are well represented in my me-made wardrobe. I have huge admiration for people who make their own underwear but it is not something I have had time to have a go at, nor much interest in yet. Too many other garments that I can wear for public display are on my sewing agenda for now!
Jeans; Burda 7863 slightly modified, rusty corduroy, details here
Top; Metalicus
Olive top; Cue (I've had this top literally for decades...)
Scarf; knitted by me, originally a wool kit from Calico and Ivy, details here
Shoes; Francesco Morichetti, from Zomp shoes
(below; random photos I took on our walk today...)

I agree with Irene, the color palette of that picture is amazing! You are the queen of jeans and I love those! :)
Good luck with SSS. I was halfhearted the last time I signed up and I really am going to give it a pass this time. But you are good at styling and I do find it interesting to see. I am curious about the scathing review, though, as I seemed to miss it. :)I haven't really thought about it much, but maybe I should try the challenge out again. The problem I have is that so much of my clothing is me-made that it really isn't much of a challenge, but when school starts I definitely tend not to wear as many dresses so maybe this would be good (on the other hand, I'll teaching a lab on how to make concrete 3 days of the week... I'll have to not count my change of clothes)
ReplyDeleteCarolyn, then we're two. I don't know nothing about Spanish too. The great part of Latin America speechs Spanish but here, in Brazil, we are the exception: Portuguese. Both languages came from Latin, like French and Italian, but they're all differents. I've studied a little of English and a little bit more of French, but no Spanish at all.That's a shame!
Kisses.Thanks for your comment! And to reply to your remark about 'strange' modes of dress: I went to a talk on fashion history a while ago and the lady giving that pointed towards young men wearing their trousers so low they could hardly walk as a trend on fairly equal terms with the corset. Although very high heels should be on that list too (even though I sometimes those myself). And I think the present day body-cult which revolves around diet and exercise has in many ways replaced the body molded by clothes.
About Self Stitched September: I think I read the same blog post back in spring and although I confess I agreed on getting tired of coming across MMM-post just about everywhere, I did certainly not agree with that blogger's negative view of the participants of these challenges.
By all means, let's enjoy and celebrate the clothes we've worked so hard to make. (the main reason I never join is not feeling like taking my picture every day...)I am participating in SSS11 also. I took a pass on MeMadeMarch and regretted it as I love the sharing that results from the photo gallery. I plan to NOT do a photo everyday, but post a summary of my "looks". I am a bit camera shy and really dislike doing review photos etc. My blog focuses on crafting a purposeful life in retirement and sewing is one part of that life-so I do not want to overwhelm my readers with clothing.
Beautiful outfit and I wish I was there to enjoy the view with you,
MaryGood luck with SSS and ignore the scathing comments. I don't know why but there is always someone who feels compelled to criticize others instead of making the most of their own life. You've done exactly right. You read, considered carefully and realized they were full of $#!+. Even though I've never participated in one of the self-stitched activities, I greatly enjoy seeing what all of you do. I believe that you add a moment of good to the internet and my own life.
ReplyDeleteI think fashion and style are two different things. A lot of fashion is not at all stylish and a lot of stylish people are not necessarily fashionable.
I like the fact you show your clothes worn as opposed to not. It is almost impossible to imagine the reality of clothing if on a model or lying on the bed. Would you buy clothes from a catalogue that didn't show people actually wearing the clothes? I know what you mean by the camera never lying...on more than one occasion I have looked at my photos and thought...do I really look that bad in that?
I love the scenery, particularly the pelican. I showed my 12 year old son and we had a laugh over him being bitten by one as a three year old!:) Good for you! I've enjoyed your photos of the last couple of challenges, although by the end of the month, I sometimes get a little tired of my reader being filled up with so many outfit posts... ;)
I'm still unsure about officially joining. I enjoyed the warm-weather of MMJ a lot more than MMMarch and my fall wardrobe isn't very well stocked yet...You are so good at styling and photographing your outfits. I enjoy your posts very much. I love to read sewing blogs, but whilst your sewing construction and pattern review posts are excellent, I feel that your styling posts are taking the sewing to the next step as well, wearing. To me, this is just as much about sewing as the more technical posts. I am looking forward to your SSS posts.
I didn't come across the scathing post, but my thought is, why bother raining on other people's parade? It takes a small nature to do that.I heard there was some negativity about the Me-Made project, but I never actually read the blog posts. I'm going to sign up again - even though I felt quite burnt out at the end of MMJ I got so much out of the challenge it made it all worthwhile. If people don't like the challenge, or the associated blog posts, then there are plenty of other sewing blogs to read.
As always, beautiful outfit and photos.I thought about it long and hard (well maybe not that hard) before signing up this time for all the reasons others mention. Taking photo's everyday can be a drag also being winter and not having many handmade clothes became difficult. Why not show off what we make! Aren't we proud of our efforts.
BTW Fab photo's of the beach.I think I want to take a turn at walking your dog someday! Amazing scenery. I hope it never seems commonplace.
Since you don't really fit in the fashion blogger genre, I might say you're a styling blogger. Styling what you've sewn and posting about it is actually quite helpful to other sewists.Shallow and egotistical? To the contrary, it's generous to take the time each day to share your fashion ideas. It's truly inspiring to me, a beginner, to see what skilled people are making, and how they wear what they make.
Your photos are also inspiring. The one at the top of this blog entry is amazing.
I've decided to sign up for Self Stitched September too. As you say, it's a nice challenge.I really don't understand why some people felt the need to be so critical of the challenge. If they don't like it, skip those blog posts. It's that simple. For my part, I admire the people who have the perseverance to do the daily outfit shots, since that was what killed me about 1/3 of the way through Me-Made-March this year.
I like seeing how people incorporate their me-made stuff into real life daily outfits. I've been thinking that I need to bring more me-made outfit pics into my blog, though probably on a more casual basis than the monthly challenges.Hooray! I'm glad you've signed up again! I'm always inspired by both your sewing and your styling.
As pretty much everyone else has said, I don't understand the negativity about the me-made/self-stitched challenges - if you aren't interested in it, skip those posts. And it's still a sewing blog - you are showing items you have sewn, and you tend to show them styled in an outfit anyway so it's not a major departure.
I've signed up again too - despite the fact I'll probably be repeating an awful lot again (and I have minimal autumn-suitable clothing), I enjoyed the last challenge (my first one) so much I have to do it again, and it spurred me on to more sewing, so bonus!

345 die in stampede at Cambodian festival
Posted on Nov 23 , 2010 • 1 Comments
Thousands of people stampeded during a festival in the Cambodian capital, leaving at least 345 dead and hundreds injured in what the prime minister called the country's biggest tragedy since the 1970s reign of terror by the Khmer Rouge. Some in the panicky crowd -- who were celebrating the end of the rainy season on an island in a river -- tried to flee over a bridge and were crushed underfoot or fell over its sides into the water.

No, why don't you look it up for me? It's you who has made these statements and you that needs to back it up, not me who's simply asking for your source.
This is why. I feel this is pretty much common knowlege in Geneology.
It is established fact that people originated from Africa. And on their migration to Asia, they stopped at Iran first. Resulting in this one male Y Chromosome Iran, which all Far East Asians and Native American can trace back to.
You don't even need sources to deduce this from logic.
Unless you believe human race originated from Asia not Africa, otherwise it's hard to not to come to that conclusion.
If you disagree with me, perhaps you should also look up your sources in counter-arguement??
But then I am used to looking up sources. In fact I have the sources with me but then I decided maybe you should look this one up yourself. Because this is simply everywhere on google. This is actually from Gubuk's DNA testing.
Some 40,000 years ago a man in Iran or southern Central Asia was born with a unique genetic marker known as M9, which marked a new lineage diverging from the M89 group. His descendants spent the next 30,000 years populating much of the planet.
Most residents of the Northern Hemisphere trace their roots to this unique individual, and carry his defining marker. Nearly all North Americans and East Asians ahve the M9 marker, as do most Europeans and many Indians. The halogrop defined by M9, K, is known as the Eurasian Clan.
This large lineage dispersed gradually. Seasoned hunters followed the herds ever eastward, along a vast belt of Eurasian steppe, until the massive mountain ranges of south central Asia blocked their path.
The Hindu Kush, Tian Shan, and Himalaya, even more formidable during the era's ice age, divided eastward migrations. These migrations through the "Pamir Knot" region would subsequently become defined by additional genetic markers.
M175, first arose among early Siberians of the lineage M9. The haplogroup it defines, O, unitquely represents East Asia.
Siberian hunters followed the great steppes eastward, across southern Siberia, about 35,000 years ago. After these ancient migrants arrived in China and East Asia, the ice age advanced toward glacial maximum. Encroaching ice sheets and Central Asia's impassible mountain ranges effectively isolated the haplogroup in East Asia. There they evolved in isolation over the millennia.
so now, where is your sources?

[Solved] Sold To Date Counter
I've searched high and low for something of this sort and I'm coming up empty at every turn.
I'm looking for a counter script with these features:
- Continually counts up.
- Does not reset on page reload.
- Can increase on random intervals. e.g. +7, +13, +1, etc..
This will be used as a "Sold to Date" counter. I'll be averaging their daily sales and incorporating that into the scripts integer increase.
Here's a sample of a count down timer: http://cnanney.com/journal/demo/apple-counter/countdown.php
That script counts down to a specific date so it has something to check again but this counter would have a constant, and count up.
Any thought, suggestions, ideas, alternatives?
Why not just log the sales into the database and then output it with PHP?
I agree with Andy. If its a eCommerce site, I would imagine it has a database behind it. Just count sales of the item and echo it out.
I considered that but this isn't an eCommerce site. It's a brick and mortar shop with a POS system that is great but adding in that function is way out of budget.
Although, I think I found my answer In this article : http://cnanney.com/journal/code/apple-style-counter/
One of the later comments discusses how to add a fixed state date to the counter. I've demoed it and it works great, but now I have to setup the random intervals.
Their sales are very consistent so I think this solution would be fair enough.
Thanks guys.

Now xdm doesn't start on boot. I have to restart xdm 5 times to finally get the login screen (1st time I get black screen and 3 times I get mishmashed picture), after that I am up and running, but it's annoying to do that on each restart.
I did following:
- Code: Select all
equo install x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati
equo remove ati-drivers ati-userspace
rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
eselect mesa set auto
also from Joost's blog (https://joostruis.wordpress.com/2011/01 ... -catalyst/) step 4 and 5:
- Code: Select all
Step 4: Add a custom parameter that enables KMS (Kernel Mode Setting)
Edit /etc/default/grub and add radeon.modeset=1 to the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT variable
Step 5: Regenerate your grub.cfg file:
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
I had a chat on IRC with Sabayon guys, they told me everything is working fine, just XDM starts too soon. So I tried to change the xdm script from boot to default without any success.
Any idea what could go wrong?
Can you also advise in the mean time where to put the aditional script I made that would restart the xdm without me having to login to terminal as root and running it manually?

Driving Competitive Advantage Through Service Innovation (Part 1)
Join a high-level conversation with fellow industry leaders and experts from The Conference Board to address emerging business issues identified by our members. Each KnowlEdge Series is composed of three or four half-hour programs that build on each other. The interactive, web-based format ensures ease of access. Supplemental materials and online availability keep the discussion going long after the series ends. Provocative and proactive, the KnowlEdge Series informs and deepens your company's internal dialogue on the most pressing issues of the day.
Traditional sources of competitiveness – tangible and previously plentiful inputs such as land, natural resources and labor quantity – that have given the US its historical competitive edge will not be sufficient in the future. Scarce and intangible inputs that will create competitiveness are ideas, knowledge, and labor quality (talent). "Service innovation", instead of traditional "product innovation", is now the focus of companies looking to maintain and grow competitive advantage. An exciting but complicating factor in this new development is the increasing melding of "products" and "services" as leading edge companies bring their imagination and business acumen to bear on unmet customer needs.
The Business Issue: As the tight integration of services and products into innovative "offerings" becomes more critical to firm competitiveness, how are companies organizing around these capabilities? What kinds of people are needed to design and implement new business models, processes and capabilities? How are old and new capabilities integrated to achieve economies of scope and scale through back-of-the-house operations?

Driving Competitive Advantage Through Service Innovation (Part 1)
PART 1: The Dynamics of Service Innovation
27 May, 2009 | (01 hr)
During the first session we will sketch the broad perspective on the evolving world of service innovation through IBM's effort to develop a new business school curriculum centered on "service science, management and information". Clearly, IBM expects that a shift from traditional to service innovation will lead to radically different business models and business processes, and a shortage of managers who can think in terms of the new services and manage them well. What kinds of managers are required ("Ts") and how can firms (and their supply chains) organize around these new business processes?
Key Points to be covered:
- The rapidly evolving business landscape and its effect on business models.
- The disconnects between old and new models, as well as organizational structure, managerial skills, sources of value and key metrics.
- IBM's continuing journey through services business model innovation.

PART 2: Wholesale to Retail: Service Innovation in Health Insurance
03 June, 2009 | (01 hr)
In this session, we will review the case of a traditional (B2B) service provider, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Florida, which has a new (B2C) offering for those who cannot get health insurance through their employers, delivered through shops in malls. Where did the idea comes from, who were involved, how did it get launched? And, after a few successful store openings, how to roll out this offering, and how to organize the firm around it? Finally, how does the new business relate to the traditional business, how does it draw on existing capabilities, how are these reshaped, how does it fit in the rest of the organization, and what is the role of the CEO in fostering this innovation?
Key Points to be covered:
- Understanding a changed environment as a first step to service innovation.
- Embracing disruptive innovation as a way to better serve the customer and create competitive advantage..

PwC will share its story of how it solved a well-understood business challenge faced by many finance departments with a team of specialists possessing unique skills for a professional services firm.
Key Points to be covered:

PART 4: Second Generation Service Innovation
17 June, 2009 | (01 hr)
In the fourth and final session we will follow a successful company that had a legacy service product come under pressure from disruptive innovation on the outside. Hertz saw both the threat and the opportunity of Flexcar's and later ZipCar's "car sharing" model in relation to its traditional "car rental" business. Hertz brought in a key executive from the outside, from ZipCar, to create its own disruptive innovation that competes with its traditional model. A difficult course, but one with the potential to create a transformational second generation of its service offering.
Key Points to be covered:
- Disruption is a given.
- Understanding new customer needs
- Riding the curve — being willing to put the legacy product at risk in order to remain competive and transform their company.

1. Mean Annual Precipitation The relationship between elevation of a location and its mean annual precipitation (MAP) reflects the orographic nature of regional precipitation. For slopes west of the Sierra Nevada crest, MAP ranges from 20 inches at the southwest corner of the county to almost 70 inches near the crest.
2. Depths and Intensities The criteria presented are based on the records of regional gages both within and near Placer County and relationships developed through the analysis of long-term gages in the region (3). These criteria reflect the strong differences in precipitation with elevation and exposure exhibited in the data. For elevations greater than 3000 feet, significant precipitation occurs during the year as snow but does not directly contribute to peak flows from small watersheds. For these elevations, the criteria reflect only the amount falling as rain. Equation 5-2 below presents a relationship between depth, and elevation. Related coefficients for various durations and frequencies are presented in Appendix V-A.

Super comfortable, great for waling, step in and go, perfect for fall and the "heel" provides excellent arch support without straining back. Great overall shoe w/ classic style.
These are a great dressier shoe that can be worn all year long! The Luxe is made with a Pigskin lining to offer great comfort and breathability. Thank you for this fabulous review and feedback.
Sized as Expected
Every day wear.
Due to a bone spur in my heal caused by extensive walking, my podiatrist said I could not go barefoot, and my shoes had to be chosen from about 3 specific brands. Two of them only made athletic shoes, which I did NOT want to be stuck in all day long. One choice was Merrell, thank God, because it offered me many options. I found this cute pair and have worn them every day for 4 months--to work, to church, with jeans, etc. I teach school, and am on my feet much of the day, yet as many others have said, my feet do not get tired. Plus, my bone spur has slowly healed. Today I ordered my second pair in the brown color, just to have some variety.
We are so glad Merrells were Doctor's orders! We are so thrilled you love how great these shoes are and have went and ordered them in the brown as well. Thank you for the awesome review.
Sized as Expected
Per doctor's order, I wear them every day!
Absolutely love this shoe!!! They are comfortable, true to size and I got a lot of comments on them. I am on my feet for 90% of the day and have gone through countless pairs of shoes. Merrell is the ONLY brand of shoes I can wear all day without my feet being in agony. You've got a customer for life :)
Thank you for passing along your compliments. We are so glad you have found these to be very comfortable while you are on your feet for most of the day. Thank you so much for the fabulous review.
Sized as Expected
These shoes are the best ever! They are so comfortable right out of the box, and my feet are hard to please! They offer good support and look stylish. The leather has a casual rugged look which is part of the style of the shoe. I usually wear a size 9, but had to go to a 9.5 in this shoe because of my high instep.I find the run true to size. LOVE them!
Thanks for the wonderful comments on this casual style. We are happy this style fits well and was super comfortable right out of the box. Thanks for the feedback!
Sized as Expected
travel, casual business attire
I have purchased very expensive shoes and they never fit as well or were as comfortable as these Merrell shoes. I have been wearing them almost every day since I bought them almost 3 months ago. I wear them to work in an office and after work and on weekends. I work in Manhattan were I constantly walk everywhere. At the end of the day my feet aren't tired or in pain. Plus I love the design. The little studs are cool. I'm a size 6.5 and they fit perfectly from the first wearing. Great shoes!
Thanks for the fabulous review! We are thrilled they have proved to be very comfortable, even after lots of walking. Thanks for the great feedback, we truly appreciate it.

Seven Reasons Windows 8 Adoption In The Enterprise Is At Risk
Posted by David Johnson on November 16, 2012
- 470 Recommendations
- 0 comments
In my previous blog on Windows 8, I discussed the gap between IT decision-maker interest in migrating to Windows 8 and employee interest — particularly with touchscreen tablet devices. Employee interest was even higher than I expected prerelease, which means that Windows 8 will likely become a bring-your-own-device (BYOD) force for many organizations, but the high number of undecided respondents suggests that the next 12 months will be critical. Note that the survey was taken before the public Windows 8 release, so I don't yet know how interest will change with more people using it hands-on. I'll share my personal experiences with it in a future blog post. With that in mind, below are seven factors that put adoption at risk through the first 12 months after release.
- Most IT shops are still in the midst of their Windows XP to 7 migration. Clients report that migrating to Windows 7 is an expensive process, with application migration and modernization, the OS upgrade process, and the associated labor and costs. With only 4% of firms having a plan to migrate to Windows 8 in the next 12 months, the majority of new corporate PCs currently being deployed with Windows 7, a three- to five-year life cycle on PC hardware, and the end of Windows XP support coming in April 2014, Forrester believes few firms will be anxious to make another major investment in desktop OS migration.
- Windows 8 makes strides in security and manageability, but Windows 7 is good enough for most. The new security features in Windows 8 are potent, and include Trusted Boot, Dynamic Access Control, and improvements to BitLocker, to name three. As good as these features are, we don't think they will be enough to create a tipping point for IT adoption. Further, because Windows 8 shares many core underpinnings with Windows 7, its management needs, such as patching, software license compliance, and policy management, are similar, so there are minimal management benefits.
- The new Windows interface is a major change that carries added support risk for I&O. In Forrester's Workforce Technology Assessments, we often find large groups of employees (50% or more) whose role in the organization and thoughts toward technology could be characterized by the statements: "Keep it simple. While I live in these tools, they're just a way to get the job done"; or "I use computers as part of my job, but I don't use them much at home." Forrester believes that these employees will mostly find Windows 7 adequate for their needs, and the loss of familiar attributes like the start button for navigation, or the potential for confusion between apps running on the legacy Windows desktop and those running in the new Windows 8 interface, will cause disorientation and frustration, requiring additional training and support.
- Confusion between Windows RT and Windows 8. Windows RT is a version of Windows specifically engineered to work on ARM processor architectures, which means that applications will need to be either rewritten or recompiled to work. However, because Windows RT and Windows 8 are virtually indistinguishable from each other visually (both have the new start screen and a traditional desktop), it may not be obvious to buyers that some of their apps aren't compatible with Windows RT until they try to install them.
- Limited initial availability of apps in the Windows App Store. With 275,000 apps in the Apple App Store for iOS, currently just short of 10,000 in the Windows 8 App Store, and less than 4,000 available for Windows RT, many of the most popular iOS or Android apps are not yet available for Windows. This will temper consumer and BYOD demand for Windows tablets until the Microsoft developer ecosystem can catch up. My colleague Frank Gillett proposes that this will take at least one year, or longer. On the other hand, the availability of Microsoft Office with touch-enabled features should be a major draw for customers.
- Comparatively high Windows 8 resource requirements for tablets. Windows 8 is, of course, a complete desktop OS, with greater resource requirements than competing tablet-specific operating systems. For many, the ability to use a Windows 8 device as both a tablet and a PC will be appealing, but at the same time, Intel Core i5- or i7-based Windows 8 tablet hardware doesn't currently match the iPad or the Samsung GalaxyTab in battery life. It also typically requires a fan, which could impact usability. Windows RT is designed to run on low-power ARM chips with fewer resource requirements, but as mentioned above, it's not directly compatible with Windows 8 apps.
- Fragmented OEM hardware ecosystem. The wide range of hardware available could serve as more of a hindrance than a help. Enterprises buy PC hardware with their top priority on price and reliability, while consumers buy based on price and features. This price sensitivity could make it difficult for tablet PC vendors to differentiate with unique products built up to a standard instead of down to a price. Buyers are also facing a potentially confusing array of devices that includes Windows 8 and Windows RT-ready hardware.
