The Snowys Trailer
Next week sees the release of The Snowys, the second film from The Rapha Continental Australia. The Snowy Mountains, the 'Snowys' of the film's title, are home to Mount Kosciuszko, at 7,310ft the highest peak in Australia. Their place in Australian folklore was secured in 1890, with their appearance in The Man from Snowy River. Arguably Australia's most well-known poem and penned by its best-loved poet, Andrew 'Banjo' Patterson, it is a lyrical tale of frontier heroism and the triumph of the underdog.
Shot in the middle of winter Down Under and directed by Joel Harmsworth, The Snowys presents an Australian landscape unfamiliar to those who have not visited the region and which, draped in snow for several months of the year, is part of the larger Australian Alps.
Set to a haunting score and produced in association with The Sweetshop, The Snowys contrasts the traditional transport of the Aussie stockman, the horse, with the modern bicycle; in so doing, it offers a lament for a way of life that has all but disappeared. Featuring hard road riding and big landscapes, The Snowys will be available on rapha.cc in high definition at the end of next week.

Help Disclaimer
When you join APRA, you assign all of the performing rights in your works to APRA so that APRA can license and enforce those rights on your behalf as efficiently as possible.
From time to time, you may wish to license certain uses of your works yourself rather than through APRA. To do this, you first need to take back the necessary rights from APRA. You can do this by "licensing back" or "opting out". Which one you use will depend on what you're planning to do with your music. APRA provides various options, explained below.
If you are granting direct licences for the use of your music, APRA will not be collecting licence fees for those uses, and your legal rights and your income could be affected. This is an information sheet only. APRA is happy to answer your questions about licence-back and opt out, but you should obtain your own legal advice.
If you want to offer your own music on your own website, for non commercial purposes (your works are provided free of charge) APRA will grant you a complimentary licence for this purpose.
The application process for a Complimentary licence for personal website is quick, easy and free:
If you want to license your music to be made available on a particular website, provided the website is non commercial (there can be no financial benefit in connection with the website, and the website must be run by a not for profit body that isn't publicly funded), APRA will grant you a licence for this purpose. If the online licence you wish to grant does not fall within this definition you should use the general licence-back application process described below.
If you want to enter into a direct licence with someone in New Zealand or Australia to use one or more of your songs, APRA will grant you a licence-back. You will need to tell APRA who you're licensing (either by name, or by description – just enough information so that APRA won't try to license that person as well). APRA will still own the performing rights in the work, and will continue to license all other users.
You can choose to "opt out" of APRA for certain categories of use, for all your works. This will give you complete control of all your works, worldwide, for that type of use. You will be able to grant licences to anyone for that use, on your terms, or you may choose not to license the works at all.
The categories of use are:
If you opt out, APRA will not license any uses of your works in the relevant category, and you won't receive any money from APRA for that use. APRA also will not be able to enforce your rights if someone infringes your copyright.
The minimum period to opt out is 12 months. If you want to opt out, you must provide APRA with the following:

- Pancreatic resections for advanced M1-pancreatic carcinoma: the value of synchronous metastasectomy (2010)
- Background. For M1 pancreatic adenocarcinomas pancreatic resection is usually not indicated. However, in highly selected patients synchronous metastasectomy may be appropriate together with pancreatic resection when operative morbidity is low. Materials and Methods. From January 1, 2004 to December, 2007 a total of 20 patients with pancreatic malignancies were retrospectively evaluated who underwent pancreatic surgery with synchronous resection of hepatic, adjacent organ, or peritoneal metastases for proven UICC stage IV periampullary cancer of the pancreas. Perioperative as well as clinicopathological parameters were evaluated. Results. There were 20 patients (9 men, 11 women; mean age 58 years) identified. The primary tumor was located in the pancreatic head (n=9, 45%), in pancreatic tail (n=9, 45%), and in the papilla Vateri (n=2, 10%). Metastases were located in the liver (n=14, 70%), peritoneum (n=5, 25%), and omentum majus (n=2, 10%). Lymphnode metastases were present in 16 patients (80%). All patients received resection of their tumors together with metastasectomy. Pylorus preserving duodenopancreatectomy was performed in 8 patients, distal pancreatectomy in 8, duodenopancreatectomy in 2, and total pancreatectomy in 2. Morbidity was 45% and there was no perioperative mortality. Median postoperative survival was 10.7 months (2.6–37.7 months) which was not significantly different from a matched-pair group of patients who underwent pancreatic resection for UICC adenocarcinoma of the pancreas (median survival 15.6 months; =.1). Conclusion. Pancreatic resection for M1 periampullary cancer of the pancreas can be performed safely in well-selected patients. However, indication for surgery has to be made on an individual basis.
- On the structural changes in the Brewer-Dobson circulation after 2000 (2010)
- In this paper we present evidence that the observed increase in tropical upwelling after the year 2000 may be attributed to a change in the Brewer-Dobson circulation pattern. For this purpose, we use the concept of transit times derived from residual circulation trajectories and different in-situ measurements of ozone and nitrous dioxide. Observations from the Canadian midlatitude ozone profile record, probability density functions of in-situ N2O observations and a shift of the N2O-O3 correlation slopes, taken together, indicate that the increased upwelling in the tropics after the year 2000 appears to have triggered an intensification of tracer transport from the tropics into the extratropics in the lower stratosphere below about 500 K. This finding is corroborated by the fact that transit times along the shallow branch of the residual circulation into the LMS have decreased for the same time period (1993–2003). On a longer time scale (1979–2009), the transit time of the shallow residual circulation branch show a steady decrease of about −1 month/decade over the last 30 years, while the transit times of the deep branch remain unchanged. This highlights the fact that a change in the upwelling across the tropical tropopause is not a direct indicator for changes of the whole Brewer-Dobson circulation.
- Saharan dust and ice nuclei over Central Europe (2010)
- Surface measurements of aerosol and ice nuclei (IN) at a Central European mountain site during an episode of dust transport from the Sahara are presented. Ice nuclei were sampled by electrostatic precipitation on silicon wafers and were analyzed in an isothermal static vapor diffusion chamber. The transport of mineral dust is simulated by the Eulerian regional dust model DREAM. Ice nuclei and mineral dust are significantly correlated, in particular IN number concentration and aerosol surface area. The ice nucleating characteristics of the aerosol as analyzed with respect to temperature and supersaturation are similar during the dust episode than during the course of the year. This suggests that dust may be a main constituent of ice nucleating aerosols in Central Europe.
- Saharan dust and ice nuclei over Central Europe (2010)
- Surface measurements of aerosol and ice nuclei (IN) at a Central European mountain site during an episode of dust transport from the Sahara are presented. Transport is simulated by the Eulerian regional dust model DREAM. Ice nuclei and mineral dust are significantly correlated. The highest correlation is found between IN concentration and aerosol surface area. The ice nucleating characteristics of the aerosol with respect to temperature and supersaturation are similar during the dust episode than during the course of the year. This suggests that dust is always a dominant constituent of ice nucleating aerosols in Central Europe.
- A new estimation of the recent tropospheric molecular hydrogen budget using atmospheric observations and variational inversion (2010)
- This paper presents an analysis of the recent tropospheric molecular hydrogen (H2) budget with a particular focus on soil uptake and surface emissions. A variational inversion scheme is combined with observations from the RAMCES and EUROHYDROS atmospheric networks, which include continuous measurements performed between mid-2006 and mid-2009. Net H2 surface flux, soil uptake distinct from surface emissions and finally, soil uptake, biomass burning, anthropogenic emissions and N2 fixation-related emissions separately were inverted in several scenarios. The various inversions generate an estimate for each term of the H2 budget. The net H2 flux per region (High Northern Hemisphere, Tropics and High Southern Hemisphere) varies between −8 and 8 Tg yr−1. The best inversion in terms of fit to the observations combines updated prior surface emissions and a soil deposition velocity map that is based on soil uptake measurements. Our estimate of global H2 soil uptake is −59 ± 4.0 Tg yr−1. Forty per cent of this uptake is located in the High Northern Hemisphere and 55% is located in the Tropics. In terms of surface emissions, seasonality is mainly driven by biomass burning emissions. The inferred European anthropogenic emissions are consistent with independent H2 emissions estimated using a H2/CO mass ratio of 0.034 and CO emissions considering their respective uncertainties. To constrain a more robust partition of H2 sources and sinks would need additional constraints, such as isotopic measurements.
- Global patterns of cropland use intensity (2010)
- This study presents a global scale analysis of cropping intensity, crop duration and fallow land extent computed by using the global dataset on monthly irrigated and rainfed crop areas MIRCA2000. MIRCA2000 was mainly derived from census data and crop calendars from literature. Global cropland extent was 16 million km2 around the year 2000 of which 4.4 million km2 (28%) was fallow, resulting in an average cropping intensity of 0.82 for total cropland extent and of 1.13 when excluding fallow land. The lowest cropping intensities related to total cropland extent were found for Southern Africa (0.45), Central America (0.49) and Middle Africa (0.54), while highest cropping intensities were computed for Eastern Asia (1.04) and Southern Asia (1.0). In remote or arid regions where shifting cultivation is practiced, fallow periods last 3–10 years or even longer. In contrast, crops are harvested two or more times per year in highly populated, often irrigated tropical or subtropical lowlands where multi-cropping systems are common. This indicates that intensification of agricultural land use is a strategy that may be able to significantly improve global food security. There exist large uncertainties regarding extent of cropland, harvested crop area and therefore cropping intensity at larger scales. Satellite imagery and remote sensing techniques provide opportunities for decreasing these uncertainties and to improve the MIRCA2000 inventory.
- Biological activities of aqueous and organic extracts from tropical marine sponges (2010)
- We report on screening tests of 66 extracts obtained from 35 marine sponge species from the Caribbean Sea (Curaçao) and from eight species from the Great Barrier Reef (Lizard Island). Extracts were prepared in aqueous and organic solvents and were tested for hemolytic, hemagglutinating, antibacterial and anti-acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activities, as well as their ability to inhibit or activate cell protein phosphatase 1 (PP1). The most interesting activities were obtained from extracts of Ircinia felix, Pandaros acanthifolium, Topsentia ophiraphidites, Verongula rigida and Neofibularia nolitangere. Aqueous and organic extracts of I. felix and V. rigida showed strong antibacterial activity. Topsentia aqueous and some organic extracts were strongly hemolytic, as were all organic extracts from I. felix. The strongest hemolytic activity was observed in aqueous extracts from P. acanthifolium. Organic extracts of N. nolitangere and I. felix inhibited PP1. The aqueous extract from Myrmekioderma styx possessed the strongest hemagglutinating activity, whilst AChE inhibiting activity was found only in a few sponges and was generally weak, except in the methanolic extract of T. ophiraphidites.
- Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking and Nambu–Goldstone Bosons in Quantum Many-Body Systems (2010)
- Spontaneous symmetry breaking is a general principle that constitutes the underlying concept of a vast number of physical phenomena ranging from ferromagnetism and superconductivity in condensed matter physics to the Higgs mechanism in the standard model of elementary particles. I focus on manifestations of spontaneously broken symmetries in systems that are not Lorentz invariant, which include both nonrelativistic systems as well as relativistic systems at nonzero density, providing a self-contained review of the properties of spontaneously broken symmetries specific to such theories. Topics covered include: (i) Introduction to the mathematics of spontaneous symmetry breaking and the Goldstone theorem. (ii) Minimization of Higgs-type potentials for higher-dimensional representations. (iii) Counting rules for Nambu–Goldstone bosons and their dispersion relations. (iv) Construction of effective Lagrangians. Specific examples in both relativistic and nonrelativistic physics are worked out in detail.
- Optimal management of Alzheimer's disease patients: clinical guidelines and family advice (2010)
- Family members provide most of the patient care and administer most of the treatments to patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Family caregivers have an important impact on clinical outcomes, such as quality of life (QoL). As a consequence of this service, family caregivers suffer high rates of psychological and physical illness as well as social and financial burdens. Hence, it is important to involve family caregivers in multimodal treatment settings and provide interventions that are both suitable and specifically tailored to their needs. In recent years, several clinical guidelines have been presented worldwide for evidence-based treatment of AD and other forms of dementia. Most of these guidelines have considered family advice as integral to the optimal clinical management of AD. This article reviews current and internationally relevant guidelines with emphasis on recommendations concerning family advice.
- T cell receptor diversity prevents T cell leukemia, lymphoma development / von Nabil Saleh Ahmed Al-Ghaili (2010)
- Gene therapy is a promising therapeutic strategy that emerged from the attractive idea of targeting therapy at the molecular level. For many patients who suffer from genetic and acquired diseases that cannot be effectively treated by conventional treatment approaches gene therapy remains a huge hope of cure in spite of the hurdles regarding efficacy and safety that need to be overcome. The development of efficient gene transfer vehicles, mainly retroviral vectors, led to the first successful gene therapy trial, to treat patients suffering from X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency syndrome (X-SCID) using gene modified stem cells (Hacein-Bey-Abina, Le Deist et al. 2002). Despite the success of this trial, it revealed the danger of retroviral insertional mutagenesis as a major adverse event of gene therapy using gene-modified stem cells (Hacein-Bey-Abina, von Kalle et al. 2003). In contrast to stem cells, T cells are relatively resistant to insertional mutagenesis and transformation even after transduction with potent oncogenes using retroviral vectors (Newrzela, Cornils et al. 2008). However, mature T cells can self-renew, proliferate and survive for long periods. These criteria are supposed to render T cells prone to transformation. Therefore, the questions of mature T cells transformability and the control mechanism limiting their transformation are still elusive.

The agreement is contained in a court filing Tuesday. It came in response to BP's argument that workers either burned the collected oil or shipped it to shore before it could enter the Gulf waters and that it shouldn't count in calculating the company's Clean Water Act penalties. The penalties will be in the billions of dollars.
The first phase of a trial is scheduled to start Feb. 25. It is designed to determine the causes of BP's well blowout and assign percentages of fault to the companies involved in the drilling project that went wrong.
The second phase will address efforts to stop the flow of oil from the well.
U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier noted Tuesday that neither party shall dispute the number of gallons collected "during Phase Two or later phases of this civil action."
A criminal settlement with the Justice Department in November didn't resolve the government's civil claims against BP.
A team of scientists working for the government estimated that more than 200 million gallons of oil spewed from BP's blown-out Macondo well from April to July 2010. That estimate included oil that was collected.

Pediatric and Obstetric Emergency Preparedness Toolkit
- Complete "Pediatric and Obstetric Emergency Preparedness Toolkit" in Portable Document Format - Revised June 2010 (PDF, 2.78MB, 196pg.)
A Guideline for Hospitals - Preface
How well we respond to and recover from a disaster is the true test of emergency preparedness planning. New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) recognizes that the level at which its hospitals are prepared to handle a mass casualty event is a critical part of emergency planning. Throughout the state, hospitals are diverse and often specialize in specific types of patient care. During a mass casualty event, hospitals may be required to treat specific patient care needs for which they may be unfamiliar. To a large degree, care of the newborn, pediatric and obstetric patient is such a specialty.
With this realization of a gap in care, NYSDOH collaborated with many local and state agencies to develop an emergency 'toolkit' for hospitals. This 'toolkit' is to be used as guidance to hospitals throughout the state to develop their own unique emergency plan. The 'toolkit' is especially designed for those hospitals that do not have pediatric intensive care services or obstetric or newborn services and must prepare for such patients during the time of a disaster. It was our intent for the 'toolkit' to be simple to use, containing laminated cards for removal and easy reference.
Although this 'toolkit' is by no means comprehensive in the specialty areas of newborn, pediatric and obstetric care, it is our intention that in regards to planning for these specialty areas, this 'toolkit' will greatly reduce the amount of disaster plan development time spent by each hospital. Our goal is that the 'toolkit' will be an asset in the development of each hospital's unique emergency preparedness plan, thus allowing the hospital time to focus on its specific needs and abilities during the time of a mass casualty event and, ultimately, be capable and prepared to serve its community well.
The purpose of this 'toolkit' is to provide guidance to hospitals throughout New York State in preparing their own unique emergency disaster plan. It is especially useful to the hospitals that do not routinely care for pediatric, newborn or obstetric patients. The 'toolkit' provides an outline for roles and actions of hospital personnel, volunteers, families and the community during an emergency and guides hospital emergency planning to ensure the pediatric and obstetric population will be well cared for during a mass casualty event.
The 'toolkit' is not meant to be a comprehensive document for the specialty areas of pediatrics, newborn care or obstetrics, but rather to be a checklist of ideas and situations the hospital should consider and plan for in the event of an emergency. It discusses strategies of how the medical staff would triage, care for and protect the pediatric patient until the legal guardians were located or proper authorities found safe placement. It discusses the probable need for extra staffing as well as the need for obtaining specialty equipment and nurses with specialty skills. Transportation and security of the patient is discussed along with the need for and importance of having a family information and support center.
Along with planning strategies, specific guidelines and practice standards are also provided in the 'toolkit'. These guidelines and standards pertain to such topics as pharmaceutical needs and dietary considerations as well as guidelines and standards for decontamination and infection control measures. Many of these specific guidelines are on laminated cards, which can be removed and posted for easy reference.
In providing guidance, standards and useful, proactive planning strategies for hospitals under one cover, it is our intention that the 'toolkit' will greatly reduce the amount of disaster plan development time spent by hospitals in preparing their own emergency plan. It will assist the hospital to focus on its locally specific needs and abilities so it is able to develop an emergency plan specific and unique to its community.

I was totally shocked to see this morning that my daughter could not get her lunch in her school bag because of all her books and textbooks. No, she is not in High School but only in Grade 6. She was forced to get and extra bag to take her books in.
I asked her why does she have all your books everyday and she said she needs it for homework.
I am shocked to think that there is no management from the teachers that offers the various subjects. She has homework everyday from almost all her subjects. She only finishes her homework between 5-6pm.
Don't get me wrong I am all for hard work and dedication, but this seems more like a lot of pressure from the teachers and the expectations is not managed accordingly.
My son is in high school and his school bag is lighter and his homework load is less. I asked him why is he so relaxed and always done before her. He said "Mom look at my homework roster" Yes! My son has a homework roster where each teacher is assigned on a specific day of the week to give homework so that they do not clash or overwhelm the children.
There is enough peer pressure the children have to deal with, LIke coping witht he new curriculum and the standard of work that is expected from them. I do hope my letter to the Grade 6 Teachers finds some form of understanding and better management.
School should be about the enjoyment of learning and the enjoyment of everyday of the week being shared with your friends. You take away the joy, you take away there passion to learn.

Thank you so much for all your positive feedback and informative responses. For now we settled on a locker until the ipad comes into play. The teachesr was very understanding. I think there must of been other parents concerns involved.
how can help teachers to help our kids so they will afford to rest little bit after hard work @ school?
There is an easy solution - buy your daughter an iPad and download her books.
Will save you a fortune in the end.
Many, many schools are adopting this strategy.
Brownyn, go and look up the learning outcome for all the subjects on your daughters grade and it might explain the volumes of homework she is expected to do.
Chat to the other parents in the grade, it everyone gets together the school and relevant teachers have to change the way in which they do things.
Hi Bronwyn, perhaps if you haven't done so already, ask your daughter to see her school roster. See if she has a class for each subject every day, because teachers won't give homework if the class for that specific subject is not scheduled for that day. Kids are supposed to only take the books to school for the classes they run on the day. I cannot think that all subjects are having a class every day... Put a little book cabinet in your daughter's room with the books for the subjects for each day of the week. It will make organising so much easier if she can just take the books for the day and add it to her book case at night.
From attending functions at my granddaughters' schools I notice that there is an enormous difference in size, height and build within one grade - I'm sure partly because children grow so fast and the difference from a birthday in January to a birthday in December is enormous. On top of that there is the genetic predisposition of whether they are large build or small. So something easily carried by a well developed child surely is an enormous strain for the smaller ones. Some kind of benchmark of what is the maximum per grade might be useful.
Just another thing for the Minister of Basic Education to worry about. She must think she can't win. All the text books arrive - and now they're too heavy!
This is so true. Is there any ruling on how much I child must carry to and from school?

New Mexico Moving Forward With Health Exchange
New Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez's administration is moving ahead to establish a state-run clearinghouse to help small businesses and tens of thousands of individuals find affordable health insurance they currently lack. However, a fight over the health insurance exchange could break out in next year's Legislature. Attorney General Gary King's office is reviewing whether new legislation is needed to implement an exchange or whether it can be done as the Martinez administration plans without a change in current law.
The exchange is to be ready to enroll people next October and fully operating by January 2014.
Some states waited for the outcome of the presidential election to make a decision, but Human Services Secretary Sidonie Squier says New Mexico has been working since last year on an exchange.

Authorities investigating the murder that took place in the Town of Dix last week are confident that they now have all the suspects in custody that were directly involved in the crime. As our Bill Mich tells us, Wednesday, police revealed the relationships the suspects had to the victim, Daniel Bennett, 31.
SCHUYLER COUNTY, N.Y. -- Tuesday night, New York State Police and the Schuyler County Sheriff announced the arrest of Alice Trappler, 39, of Addison, charging her with second degree murder.
Trappler's relationship to last week's murder victim in the Town of Dix, Daniel Bennett, 31, was made clear on Wednesday.
"Alice Trappler had a child in common with the victim, Daniel Bennett. We do know there was an ongoing family court case in the custody issue of their child," Schuyler County Sheriff Bill Yessman said.
In fact, police said last Friday, Bennett and Trappler were due in Steuben County Family Court, a day after Bennett was murdered in his home.
The arrest of another suspect was announced Tuesday, Nathan Hand, 25. Hand was the step-brother of Thomas Borden, 32, Trappler's ex-husband, who was also wanted in this case, but committed suicide by jumping in front of a commuter train outside Philadelphia on Monday.
"To the best of our knowledge, Thomas Borden was the actual shooter. His brother accompanying him to the residence," Yessman said.
Police said they have recovered the murder weapon, a 12 gauge shotgun, in a remote area in Steuben County. And while authorities have pieced together the relationship that the suspects had with the victim, they will still not comment on any motive at this time.
One thing the Schuyler County Sheriff did say is that there could be more arrests coming but they are confident, none of them would be directly related to the murder.

You are hereForums / Non-Duality / Non-Duality and Integration
Non-Duality and Integration
This thread wants to explore how the Absolute and the relative, The One and the many integrate beyond the divide of calling one 'reality' and the other 'illusion'.
"There is necessary suffering and unnecessary suffering from the point of view of integration. Necessary suffering leads to a better understanding, unnecessary suffering leads to even more ignorance." - wisdompoint.
That point of view qualifies you to be an exceptional prison warden or Secretary of Defense (i.e. "shock and awe", collateral damage).
Not to mention a God who is more than willing to send some of his children to hell for some necessary suffering.
The United States has the highest documented incarceration rate in the world.
I'm sure that that mindset is a significant contributor to that sad fact.
Excuse me?
Let us not confuse United States puritan politics of ignorantly claiming the "higher moral ground" through lobotomy and violence with VIRTUE...?
'Necessary Suffering' can not be imposed, because it is based on Oneness and integration. 'Unnecessary suffering' can be imposed, especially self-imposed. Google Victor Frankl for the razor's edge on this. He went through the Holocaust on the premise of non-duality...
"'Necessary Suffering' can not be imposed, because it is based on Oneness and integration. 'Unnecessary suffering' can be imposed, especially self-imposed. Google Victor Frankl for the razor's edge on this", said wisdompoint.
Suffering is suffering, and pain is pain. There is a relationship between the two, of course, and it usually involves a strong connection/identification with a self. Suffering is often emotionalized pain.
I can either experience pain as pain, or I can experience pain as MY pain and invite the experience of suffering to accompany it.
When I experience pain as pain, it comes and goes. As all apperances do.
But when I experience pain as my pain, it tends to be felt a lot more intensely and last much longer. Enter suffering, stage left.
(Necessary or unnecessary) suffering is pain that has been heavily identified with a self.
Or a pain that has been judged.
Occasionally, I will experience "I am in pain". But when I remember that I am that too (pain, that is), I know longer experience "I am in pain"; I experience "I am pain" instead. And suffering has very little chance of being invited into the mix.
The next time that you experience some form of suffering which premised on a pain, try this experiment:
be the pain, not the person who is pained.
Your experience of suffering may significantly alter.
I have always done that since I was a child, especially when I had to go to the dentist. Everyone is surprised at how much pain I can handle this way.
Otherwise, I find your construct of "suffering" rather misleading. The simple fact is, that the capacity to suffer something has to be there BEFORE pain can be experienced at all.
How we "suffer" something and how we "act" on something is the more exact distinction; and with that distinction the Hindu Bias of non-duality promotes "suffering" as a fundamental principle of 'non-duality'.
This notion of "suffering" is essencing. We let go of our agency and merge. But that is only half the story, and not even the major Enlightened Hindus are content with that anymore starting with Vivekananda, a staunch Advaitist.
Integration is the key for the West, instead of getting sucked into the outdated Hindu Bias of suffering vs. doing. They are two sides of the same mystery as Aristotle recognized. The capacity of agency is as important as the capacity to suffer in any life form - but especially in self-awareness.
"I have always done that since I was a child, especially when I had to go to the dentist. Everyone is surprised at how much pain I can handle this way". - wisdompoint
When you are the pain, is there anyone there to endure it? I do not apperceive anyone enduring anything, when I am the pain. Can you be the pain and be enduring it at once? I haven't found that to be the case.
"Otherwise, I find your construct of "suffering" rather misleading. The simple fact is, that the capacity to suffer something has to be there BEFORE pain can be experienced at all." - wisdompoint
Mis-leading to whom? And where is it that you want someone to be led to, and are concerned about them being mis-led away from? Is there a destination that you would like someone to be led to?
You obviously offered a conceptual construct by connecting pain and suffering in a certain way? I find this construct misleading. That is all I am saying. And I committed an argument to back up what I am saying.
Are you deceptive about your own constructs by excusing them absolutely, or do you suffer of non-dualistic amnesia?
Denying our own constructs is the typical circus of non-dualism....
Are you deceptive about your own constructs by excusing them absolutely, or do you suffer of non-dualistic amnesia? - wisdompoint
Either/or, eh?
I'll choose both.
I am both.
And any other potion that you may want to place on my plate.
Thanks for the offerings.
Hhhmmm...It is about "your plate" now and potions being placed on it by me?
I assume "your plate" is the plate of non-duality? Or is it the plate of how you conceptualize non-duality?
Let me know - if you feel like it?
Interesting topic, and one that I have grappled with for many years. For me, integration and responabilty become issues once awakening has taken place. I think prior to awakening we (by we I mean identified Consciousness) are (is) trapped in a cycle of conditioned thinking and responses that to say we are responsible for our actions is like saying a person who has cancer is responsible for his/her sickness. I think once we awaken to our true nature, then it is up to us to create from our true nature to the benefit of all (Consciousness).
Holding ourselves account-able at our highest point, even though we are suffering in relative ways, is the key to truly become liberated.
The ability to account for our selves from the point of the ONE does not seek guilt or blame, but empowerment on all levels of relative suffering and confusion.
For example cancer: There is necessary suffering and unnecessary suffering from the point of view of integration. Necessary suffering leads to a better understanding, unnecessary suffering leads to even more ignorance.
The point probably is this, there are no excuses or "illusion" ever...even not cancer.
As long as we don't understand our account-ability for our selves, for what we do, our emotion, our mentations, and what we think, individually and as a community - that long we are in peril of self-destruction.
This account-ability is not whimsically based on this or that program of moral, economical and spiritual improvement - it comes from the highest point (the totality) of our very own being, the untouchable and undaunted ONE SPIRIT in all of us.
Thank you Andreas, for this clearly formulated topic.
Maybe my comment will be less clear but i hope not.
Let me, just for handiness, call the illusory "Conventional Reality" and the s.c. Real "Absolute Reality".
Very provokingly dualistic, I know and I think that althongh AR is all there is, for some reason we are stuck in CR.
CR is all we have. It is mysterious,and this mystery is all we have to deal with. There is nothing to integrate and we have no power to do anything about it.
In the CR there are the exteriors that we mostly agree with each other about. If it rains, no doubt about it.
But how about the interiors, the states of mind, concepts, feelings and sensations? We cannot feel what the other feels nor show our interior to someone. We can only communicate by words or behaviors. In CR there are also different stages of developement. Someone understands more, others understand less.
To some persons can even happen (by grace?) that they reach some state of consciousness where the emptiness of CR becomes clear and, catching a glimpse of an other reality, the Absolute Unchanging they start suffering, feeling separate from it. Then it may happen them an experience (or even a permanent state) of being one with the AR and that all their purposes and actions are inspired by this "higher" state. But are they?
Maybe they are, maybe not.
I haven`t any access into this inspiration. If they will save us from self-destruction we shall see.
What I presume, since we are always dealing with interiors in CR, is that we cannot know anything about AR except our own personal experience of it. All we can say is that it is a state of mind that we cannot describe.
As for create something: God creates life, life is created.
What humans think they create, no matter on which level of consciousness, it is: - hybris.
This is a preliminary response that needs much more exploration in non-duality...
If there is no "illusion", there is also no "Conventional Reality" that is somehow different from an "Absolute Reality"?
'Interiors' and 'Exteriors' are one and the same structure or process of awareness. It can never be separated. They are absolutely inter-dependent. If we insist on "separating" them, it creates a path of disintegration and 'unnecessary suffering'...
There is no "illusion".
Spirit and Matter are ONE: Unity in Diversity: Integration.
The account-ability of self-awareness is a tremendous shift and crisis of life.
Here comes a preliminary comment to your response from me too.
Besides the problem of illusion vs reality we have also the query of suffering.
Unsolved and discussed during ages, but always vitally important. Therefore we never give up,
Tousends of years of reflection and a variety of convinctions of sages disputing with each others can only prove that, in spite of our evolved self-consciousness (interiors) and technology (exteriors), not much can be told that hasn`t been spoken of before.
We are the nth generation which is fighting with existential
issues.So I think we should consider this perspective and be humble about our capacities to formulate absolute truths.
Anyway we are always challenged to seek the Truth, so here we are.
The categorical refusal of the non-dualists to discuss the relative vs the absolute is like a fundamentalistic phobia.
Everything is ONE, I know. But in our limited relative world we have things that we can totally agree upon and others e.g. our feelings, sensations, phantasies, dreams (interiors) that demand an other approach (hermeneutics or interpretation).
I maintain that even the experiences or states of oneness or different interpretations of them must be relegated in the relative domain.
And our self-awarness is given to us to use in a hopefully ever deepening siral of understanding.And we are doing the best we can out of it no matter if we feel accountable or not. Everyone on his or her or its level of evolution.
Our suffering is also a very good example of how difficult it is to discuss interiors.
Yes, giving virtue to suffering. I remember Verdi`s beautiful Nabucco words.
It is such a big issue that I don`t know what to start with.
Maybe someone else has something wise to share about it.
Thank you.
Suffering is based on sentiency, or as the Buddhists say, 'sentient being'.
This is the first mystery, if there ever is one. Why is ther sentiency and the capacity to suffer something?
Suffering can be enjoyment as well as pain and pleasure. Once we connect to our essential sentiency, we are in touch with a most profound mystery of life.
But it gets even more amazing, once we consider life's capacity to act. And the most amazing thing is the resulting self-awareness of sentiency AND agency as an integral path of experience, learning and mastery.

Eurocup final: Lietuvos Rytas vs Khimki

Go Khimki.
Posted 05 April 2009 - 09:29 AM
Khimki has many great players. Meanwhile Rytas depends on three players - Eidson, Lukauskis and Petravicius. Eidson wasn't in the best shape yesterday. Lukauskis either, despite hitting a crucial shot. Petravicius got his points but if he plays that way today then Mozgov will have a blocking party. Zavackas is probably the biggest disappointment in the Final Eight for Rytas. He scored only one 3pt shot so far.
I see Khimki winning this. But it won't be an easy game.

For the third time we will have two teams in Euroleague. It is a great achievement for Lithuanian basketball. We should have 2 guaranteed spots and that's been proven once again.
Khimki will have to root for Rytas in LKL because if they win it then logically Eurocupo winner's license should go to the finalist.
Posted 05 April 2009 - 09:57 PM
By the way, I am really happy that Rytas are in the Euroleague next year, I hope they will meet Maccabi in the Euroleague, and I even hope that Rytas will win against Maccabi - every time Maccabi lost to Rytas, Maccabi went up until the final of the Euroleague...

Vilius, on 05 April 2009 - 07:42 PM, said:
so I guess that if Rytas would win the LKL, the C-licence would become a wild-card for the Euroleague regular season. so Khimki should root for herself in the Russian-Suproleague, or pray that the Euroleague will give her the wild-card...

For more than a decade, the provenance of white-collar defense work has been shifting away from boutiques to large corporate firms that have wooed prominent former prosecutors and built strong white-collar practices.
Nevertheless, boutiques continue to form, prompting many in the defense bar to ask whether there's enough white-collar work to go around.
In interviews with the New York Law Journal, a few white-collar defense lawyers said they felt the field was getting crowded, but others said there is a role for boutiques that find a niche and develop an expertise.
"There are many more fish chasing the same business," said Gordon Mehler, who started his own firm in 2000. While he said he thought older, established lawyers like himself would survive, younger lawyers entering the field in boutiques "will have a rough time."
There are more small firms focused on white-collar practice than there were five years ago, Mehler said. "The dynamics have dramatically changed" among the boutiques, he added.
One partner at a white-collar boutique who did not want to be identified said that "the practice area now feels to me very crowded and it seems unlikely that there's enough work to go around."
"As work has slowed down for big firms, you see more lawyers at top firms competing with boutiques to represent individuals," the partner said. "For the people who want to get into it, it's a tough market to crack."
Others are more optimistic.
"You don't need to do any more than open the newspaper and see that there's another investigation," said Steven Molo, a partner of boutique MoloLamken. "The opportunities have increased for boutiques in several ways."
Increased government enforcement and regulation have propelled the growth of the white-collar practice. In just one example, the Securities and Exchange Commission said that in fiscal year 2012 it filed 734 enforcement actions, including those against insider trading, broker-dealers, delinquent filings and other actions, just one shy of the record in 2011. The government said the last two years reflect the highest numbers of total actions brought by the SEC.

On Tuesday Feb. 12, the 97th Air Mobility Wing Public Affairs office hosted a pre-screening of National Geographic's new television series, "Inside Combat Rescue," for Altus Air Force Base and their family members.
The Public Affairs office took this opportunity to emphasize the fundamental importance AAFB has in Air Force rescue missions.
1st Lt. Katie Cousins of the 97th Air Mobility Wing Public Affairs Office said, "We were aiming to highlight our role in the fight here at Altus Air Force base, where mobility training begins. Mobility aircraft play a vital role in support of this mission, by getting crews and equipment into and out of the area of responsibility, and with aeromedical evacuation capabilities that allow injured patients to get home safely."
Altus AFB is the training center for C-17 pilots who transport combat personnel and equipment to and from the U.S and Middle East.
The premiere episode, "Visions of War," is an up-close account of Air Force pararescuers who risk their lives to provide medi-vac assistance and life-saving medical attention to injured solider's and civilians while in Kandahar City, Afganastan, a locale of high insurgent activity.
Once the show ended, a panel consisting of pilots, aircrew members, and medical professionals answered questions from the audience about their personal roles in the overall rescue mission.
A member of the panel, Capt. Ryan Bogart, Flight Surgeon of 97th Air Mobility Wing Medical Group, commented that he had transported over 1,000 injured military personnel from the field to the hospital at Kanadahar Airfield within a five month period.

Movies on the Lawn: Museum brings silver screen outdoors
Lexie Morrison
Since 2005, the A.W. Perry Homestead Museum has been showing Movies on the Lawn, an outdoor movie event, to large crowds of Carrollton residents.
"We have crowds of around 50 to 75 people for some of the lesser known movies that don't have recognizable 'star' names or familiar titles, and between 100 to 250 people for the more familiar films," Museum Curator Toyia Pointer said.
"Everyone attends," Toyia said. "We have families, individuals and people there on dates too."
Once every spring, summer and fall, the A.W. Perry Homestead Museum shows feature films on an outdoor screen that surrounds their 10-acre park. Movies on the Lawn visitors can also enjoy the Museum's spacious property and scenery.
"The screen is draped across the front of our barn just like they might have done in 1909," Toyia said. "People really seem to enjoy the 'old-fashioned' quality of seeing a movie outdoors, many people arrive early to look around, relax, and just enjoy themselves outdoors."
The A.W. Perry Homestead Museum often chooses its movies based on the season or based on what is going on in the community.
"When the DART light rail stations opened in Carrollton, we showed train-related movies," Toyia said.
Each October, Movies on the Lawn features a Halloween-themed movie to tie in with the Museum's annual live magic show.
"We have included Houdini films, and once we even showed part of the original Wizard of Oz film from 1910," Toyia said.
This fall, they will be featuring Hugo along with early films from Georges Melies, whose contribution to filmmaking is highlighted in the feature film, Hugo.
Ninety-five percent of the movies that have been featured at the A.W. Perry Homestead Museum have been silent films. The silent films often date from 1890 to the 1920s.
"I try to select the movies from the time period of the site, 1890 to 1910," Toyia said. "We've also shown movies made in the late 1920s starring recognizable names like Charlie Chaplin or Buster Keaton and even Rin Tin Tin, the dog."
The A.W. Perry Homestead Museum offers visitors concessions for a dollar each and visitors are welcome to bring their own snacks or picnics to the event.
On June 30, the A.W. Perry Homestead Museum will feature the 2011 Oscar-winning modern silent film The Artist.
"It's a great atmosphere, with plenty of room for visitors to spread out and enjoy themselves," Toyia said.

President Barack Obama called for a higher minimum wage across the country last Tuesday in his State of the Union address.
In Louisiana, the minimum wage is the same as the federal minimum wage, at $7.25 an hour.
Local businesses and employees are divided on the issue of a wage increase. Some business owners say raising the minimum wage could hurt the economy and employment rate, while others say it would improve employee morale and loyalty to the company.
Employees, however, also see pros and cons of a pay increase.
High school senior Shogo Dun works as a busboy at a Metairie restaurant. He said he looks forward to a possible pay increase.
"Anyone could use more money," Dun said. "I'm definitely for it, just because I can use the extra money right now."
The U.S. Census indicates 25.7 percent of New Orleanians lived below the poverty level between 2007 and 2011, with Louisiana seeing 18.4 percent of its population below the poverty level.
The national level is 14.3 percent.
Michael Fitzpatrick works as a part-time lifeguard and makes a little more than the minimum wage. He said a pay hike is a good idea in theory until prices go up.
"The price of a hamburger is going to go from $1 to $1.50," he said.

The Community of Disc Golfers and About All Things Disc Golf
Advanced warning, I do swear quite a bit in my daily life and it carries over to this video, not terribly, but I figured I'd warn. Seriously though, this course is a joke. And it was designed by a local chiropractor. I decided I did not want to go to the last three holes, because of the landslides, sinkholes and the makeshift 2x4 bridges meant to help you cross.
Note that the pole representing the hole 2 tee is marked with a sticker of the letter 'Z', the 3 foot tall poison ivy that makes up the hole 2 fairway, the fact that you cannot tell where you are shhoting on any given hole and the fact that the last three holes are in woods 4-5 times thicker than the thickest area of trees you will see in this video.
Also, the hole 6 basket has been ripped out of it's base and thrown into a sinkhole.
When i played there years ago in f.d. we played at crawford snell park, apparently this course is no longer around?
Try playing Morley. twenty people deep every day.
I guess you COULD call them DGers. Mostly they're stoners and drunks spoiling a good walk.

Behind the scenes of LSU Football's high-tech video team |
During the season, it's not unusual for Les Miles and his assistants to clock in at 7 a.m. and work until midnight. The bulk of that time is spent, not on the practice field or in the weight room, but with a remote control in hand, watching video playback.
Down the hall from the coaches' offices inside the expansive LSU Football headquarters and practice facility lies the nerve center of the entire program: a proficient video editing operation that serves as a hub for scouting opponents, analyzing Tiger performances, harvesting and organizing a jet stream of statistics and collecting highlights to create the next boiling wave of breathless hype.
At the helm sits Doug Aucoin, college football's 2010 National Video Director of the Year and a four-time SEC winner of the award.
"It's an honor, but it feels strange accepting it for something that doesn't feel like a job," the New Orleans native says. "I do what I do because I love it. It's not really work to me."
Maybe that's because Aucoin literally grew up doing this.
In 1967, the newly minted New Orleans Saints hired his father, Erby Aucoin Jr., as the NFL's first full-time film director. The elder Aucoin worked with the Saints through 1986, and by the time Doug turned 14, he was attending training camp and filming practices.
"Just a little summer job," Aucoin says with a laugh.
In college, Aucoin led the video department at Tulane University, and he has been the director of LSU's video operations since the Gerry DiNardo era.
Aucoin's world has its own unique language and slang.
"Tendencies" are what he's looking for in an opponent's footage. "Motivationals" are those closely guarded hard-hitting clips that pump players up before games and, occasionally, make their way online to tantalize fans.
Alex Barras is a graduate student who cuts together these clips, often called hype videos.
Through a secure cloud-based app called Huddle, players and coaches can log in and view "motivationals" any time, from anywhere. "It's Miles' message, but the players' music," Barras says. "They tell us what songs to use."
Next to a door that protects the entire athletic department's servers in a self-sufficient room equipped with battery-back-up generators—the department learned its lesson from Hurricane Gustav—is a small white board with two succinct directives: Steelers offense for Mett. Chargers offense for Rivers.
Aucoin's work is not limited to the college ranks, and his team's late-night hours during the season produce a vast cache of interactive, multimedia statistics sheets and reports.
It's an intense job, one dependent on Aucoin's eye for detail and penchant for extreme organization. His only regret is that he does not see his family as much as he would like during the long seasons.
With a legion of gear and digital assets at his disposal, Aucoin is tasked with making the process of presenting statistics and video analysis as efficient as possible for Miles and his large staff ?of assistants.
Aucoin and a video team of six travel for road games, too.
Using their own footage and feeds from closed-circuit and broadcast cameras, they begin editing each game as it is being played.
Minutes after the final buzzer has sounded, Aucoin has videos cut and ready for offense, defense and special teams to analyze.
Saved to SD cards, the videos are pushed to smart phones and tablets for players and coaches to view on the plane ride home.
Long before game time is practice time, though, and before practice comes months of data collection from an incredible array of sources.
In the first few months of 2012, Aucoin had already collected and catalogued "tendencies," statistics and footage of every game that SEC newcomers Texas A&M and Missouri played during the 2011 season.
For practice, Aucoin deploys up to 10 student workers, most armed with video cameras to track the action on the field. They follow the plays. They run the sidelines. They ride scissor lifts two stories up into the sky for aerial views.
"Coaches watch every stitch of that video," Aucoin says. "No one has any concept of how many hours they put in on a game plan. Sometimes it's not evident when you watch the game, but it always amazes me. There is no question that no stone goes left unturned. I can promise you that."
