Advertising: Jean Genie
Are you keeping abreast of this years Apprentice on BBC 1? In week 2 the candidates were summoned to the Istituto Marangoni, where they were to become jean genies and create an advertising campaign for Japanese denim.
Our design team got cold shivers watching the interaction between the candidate and the designers. We watched from behind sofas and closed hands as the candidates pored themselves over the backs of the team at Designworks. It is imperative that a balanced relationship exists between designers and clients, where both parties listen to each other and trust each other's expertise.
There was a great interchange where designer Courtney attempted to steer the candidates into thinking about the end user and not their own habits. Whilst discussing the inclusion of a Japanese Cherry blossom finish on the packaging of a men's denim line:
Designer: "Is that a feature you think users are going to pick up on and appreciate?"
Candidate: "I've kept a fragrance box for 15 years, it now stores minidiscs"
Designer: "What would the ongoing function of that box be [for the user] would they put their minidiscs in it?"
The irony that the candidate failed to realize was that he was talking about the storage of an outdated and failed technology, which made the teams reason for including the cherry blossom design as superfluous as the doomed technology of which he spoke. Put simply, it is our job as a design agency to gently nudge the client back on track.
Know your audience
What Courtney was trying to do, as the designer, was get the client to really focus on the target market and the audience. Just because a team of 6 candidates think that a cherry blossom design is a nice idea, doesn't mean that it is appropriate for the end user. Interestingly in Lord Alan Sugar's opening statement to the two teams he states that the feedback from the industry experts and top advertising executives will be fed back to him, the client. How many times have we seen Sir Alan Sugar wearing denim? The answer, not many.

报告题目:Spin-Orbit Torques: Discoveries, Advances and Possibilities
报告人:Prof.Robert Buhrman(Applied Physics, Cornell University, USA)
报告时间: 2018年10月10日(星期三)下午3点
报告地点: 中国科学院半导体研究所学术会议中心
Abstract: The discoveries early in this decade establishing that robust spin-orbit torques (SOT) can be exerted on the magnetic structure of a ferromagnetic thin film by charge flow in a thin film bilayer consisting of that ferromagnet and a heavy metal layer opened up a broad new exciting area of nanomagnetism research for fundamental studies and potential spintronics applications. Since then there have been many highly notable developments, including: (1) major advances in the understanding of the different possible origins of SOT and their range of characteristics; (2) the identification of new classes of materials that can provide strong spin currents and different types of SOT; (3) the demonstration of new concepts and approaches to effectively utilize SOT in a variety of ways for efficiently manipulating magnetism at the nanoscale; and (4) marked progress in both understanding and controlling the physics that degrade spin currents in heterostructures, and in enhancing the strength of SOT of conventional heavy metal systems through materials engineering. In this presentation I will focus largely on a selection of some of more recent developments in the first and last of these topic areas, particularly those that arguably show promise for possibly enabling a successful SOT technology in the relatively near term. Then in the last part of my presentation I will discuss some recent progress that has been made towards the effective demonstration of fast, reliable, low pulse current SOT switching of three terminal magnetic tunnel junction devices.
报告人简介:ROBERT BUHRMAN is the J.E. Sweet Memorial Professor in the School of Applied and Engineering Physics at Cornell University, where he previously also served in a number of academic and research leadership positions. Throughout his career Buhrman's research activities have been in the area of electronic materials and devices, within what is now known as nanoscale science and engineering. His current research focus, beginning about twenty years ago, is on nanomagnetic materials and spintronics. Among the earlier contributions of Buhrman and his collaborators in this area was the use of Andreev reflection spectroscopy to determine the spin polarization of currents at ferromagnetic nanocontacts, initial demonstrations of reversible spin transfer torque switching, first in magnetic spin valve nanopillars and then in magnetic tunnel junctions, followed by the quantitative determination of spin transfer torques, and of dynamic spin torque excitation effects in spin valves, magnetic tunnel junctions and of vortices in magnetic nanostructures. More recently, Buhrman and his teammates established the existence of a giant spin Hall effect in Pt, beta-Ta and beta-W thin films, and demonstrated its effectiveness for applications in novel 3-terminal spin-orbit torque devices. Currently Buhrman and his Cornell colleagues are contributing to the worldwide effort that is seeking to better understand, control and enhance spin torques arising from spin-orbit interactions, and to advance their potential for technology applications.

CONCORD — Acclaimed vocal group The Manhattan Transfer will perform a program featuring songs from their four-decade career of popular jazz hits at Concord NH's Capitol Center for the Arts on Thursday, Jan. 24 at 7:30 p.m.
The Manhattan Transfer has been pleasing crowds with their four-part vocal performances for more than 30 years. The group, named for John Dos Passos' 1925 novel, "Manhattan Transfer" and a reference to their New York roots, has come from humble beginnings, going from playing in New York City clubs to winning 10 Grammy Awards. After going through several personnel changes, the current Manhattan Transfer group, consisting of Tim Hauser (bass), Alan Paul (tenor), Janis Siegel (alto) and Cheryl Bentyne (soprano), was established in 1978. The next year, the group released their first of 24 albums, "Extensions."
Few groups have a more distinguished musical pedigree than the Manhattan Transfer. Widely renowned for broadening the musical landscape with their innovative, genre defying sound, the Platinum-selling jazz/pop group has won 10 Grammy Awards and earned 17 nominations.
In 1981 they became the first group to ever win Grammy Awards in both Pop and Jazz categories in the same year. Their song "Boy from New York City" (a cover of the 1965 success by The Ad Libs) reached Top 10 on the Billboard 200 and won them the award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal. Also from the same album, "Mecca for Moderns," the track "Until I Met You (Corner Pocket)," earned them a Grammy for Best Jazz Performance, Duo or Group.
In 1982, the group won another Grammy for Best Jazz Vocal Performance by a Duo or Group for its rendition of "Route 66." The next year, The Manhattan Transfer released the album "Bodies and Souls," shifting to an urban-contemporary style and resulting in two R&B chart singles. In 1985 they received 12 Grammy nominations for their album "Vocalese," at the time making it second only to Michael Jackson's "Thriller" as the most nominated single album ever.
For their next album, 1987's "Brazil," the group headed south to work with Brazilian songwriters. The album won a Grammy for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal. It wasn't until 1991 that The Manhattan Transfer released their next album, "The Offbeat of Avenues," which brought them their 10th Grammy award for the song, "Sassy."
In 1998, the group was inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame. Their latest album, "The Chick Corea Songbook," a tribute to the works of American jazz musician Chick Corea, was released in September 2009.
Celebrating more than 40 years in the entertainment industry, the old school hipsters remain a major staple within the music community continuing to create compelling vocal music that draws audiences of all ages and walks of life. London Jazz says that The Manhattan Transfer "wear a ferocious musical intelligence and erudition on their elegant sleeves: they are masters of vocalese, the art of singing new words to improvised melodies."
Ticket prices: Meet & Greet Gold Circle $100, Gold Circle $60, Orchestra/Mezzanine $45, Balcony $35. Tickets are available by calling 603-225-1111, online at www.ccanh.com, and at the box office, located at 44 South Main Street, Concord, NH, on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Further proof that there is no god, Mr. Tom Six himself has taken to the twitters to announce that "The Human Centipede 3" will feature no less then 500 plus people joined together. Sometimes I wish I was never born.
The words "erotic-thriller" make me really uncomfortable. Probably because the last time I saw a movie that was considered that it had Madonna pouring hot candle wax on Willem Dafoe's nipples. But "Attachment" is apparently a new one starring beaver vet Sharon Stone and today we've learned that Tom Felton has also joined the cast as the college student who has a one night stand with a married woman played by Stone. I pray for no candle wax. Or at least no Willem Dafoe.
"Piranha 3DD" has been a bit up in the air as of late but today we've learned that Dimension Films has given the boob-sploitation romp a June 1st release date. In case you've forgotten the film will be released both in theaters and VOD on the same day. Ya know, in case you can't handle seeing that kind of stuff with an audience. You sicko.
Of the 37 horror shows coming out shortly "666 Park Avenue" is the one that actually sounds kind of interesting. The show will focus on a couple that takes over running an apartment building that houses a number of residents who've sold their souls to the D-man. Matt Miller, the guy who produced "Chuck" has just signed on as executive producer of the show. I have no idea if that's a good thing or not.
Way to think outside the box. A woman in Culver City California is dead after what appears to be suicide by chainsaw. I have no idea how you even go about doing something like that. The planning must have taken days.
"Rare Bunny With No Ears Crushed by Cameraman." It's ok to cry.

One day each year, technology vendors and writers attempt to create a raft of fake products. Here's a list of some of what appeared online in 2012.
Google launches Google Maps for Nintendo NES
Google had a field day this April 1st, with several seperate announcements crowding the blogoshere (more down the page). One of its more elaborate gags was this 8-bit version of Maps designed for the Nintendo Entertainment System.
The 8-bit console version of Google Maps adopts a fantasy theme in keeping with famouse NES games like The Legend of Zelda. To see it in action, go to maps.google.com and click the "Quest" button in the left-hand side. You can even view an 8-bit version of Street View.
You can also see a video of the fake app in action below:
Toshiba announced three eccentrically shaped tablets: the self-explanatory Oblong, Rhombus and heart-shaped Amore. Perhaps these products would have a better chance of taking on the iPad than Toshiba's real tablet offerings.
You can watch the fake promo video below:
If you overlook the absurdity of a Dr Dre/Susan Boyle team-up, these headphones might not be such a bad idea. This one caught out more than a few technology sites who reported the story straight.
42in Apple iPad
Our UK sister publication Stuff knocked up this 42in iPad video. It fails to convince.
Click-to-Teleport (Beta) shopping app
Click-To-Teleport is a fake extension for Chrome which takes the uncertainty out of online shopping. Instead of squinting at a list of product thumbnails, you can see them in person by clicking on a store's website and teleporting yourself straight there.
"Please note that while in beta, there is no "teleport back home" option for users," explains Google. In other words, it's probably best to avoid overseas imports for the time being - that plane ticket is sure to wipe out any savings you make.
KUBE X-15 mini nuke
The KUBE X-15 is an ultra-portable nuclear reactor that can generate 1000KHGz of power; enough to power an entire city for up to 50 years - or so the creators of this hoax would have you believe. "Based on technology originally developed for the exploration of Mars, the KUBE X-15 uses newer clean nuclear energy," explains the Nuclear Regulation Comission about its latest tech innovation. "In the event of catastrophic failure of the device, you're only exposed to about as much radiation as you'd get sitting on the beach for 4 hours."
Additional plutonium sold seperately, naturally. Read the full story here.
Kodak 'Print Your Own Live Kittens'
Kodak may have recently gone into receivership, but the company hasn't lost its sense of humour if this gag is anything to go by. The 'Print Your Own Live Kittens' kiosk does exactly what it says on the tin: select a breed and in 90 seconds your new pet will be ready to take home.
Apple/BlackBerry Crumble Phone
When inspiration fails on April 1st, just cram two existing products together. Enter the Crumble - a new smartphone hybrid from Apple and Blackberry.
The Crumble phone bludgeons BlackBerry's tactile keyboard into Apple's signature iPhone 4S touchscreen device and is expected to launch within days, or so the hoax claims. also part of this joke is the prospect of a range of new devices ranging from the budget Pie to the high-class Tart. Read the original story here.
YouTube DVD collection
The mythical YouTube DVD collection brings together every YouTube video ever uploaded on the popular video sharing website, via a convoy of 175 delivery trucks. Numa Numa, Afro Ninja, and 120 billion other clips can now be enjoyed in the DVD format. "When my Internet went out, I used to have to wait until it came back on to watch my favorite videos. NO MORE," explained one satisified customer.
Watch the video below:
Virgin Volcanic
Virgin already has plans well underway to take passengers into orbit, hence this April 1 joke. Officially announced on Richard Branson's Twitter account, Virgin Volcanic will suppposedly send wealthy celebrities to the centre of the Earth.
"Using patented carbon-carbon materials pioneered for deep space exploration, Virgin is proud to announce a revolutionary new vehicle, VVS1, which will be capable of plunging three people into the molten lava core of an active volcano," explains the Virgin website.The blog post goes on to explain the alleged science behind the device over 700-odd words.
World's smallest Ultrabook
Sony has a knack for making products smaller than the competition - but this 0.75in Vaio Ultrabook takes the biscuit. The Q Series Ultrabook comes with 8GB of RAM, full HD 1080p resolution, AMD Radeon HD 6650M (1GB) graphics and "the sharpest screen on the market today". It would also fit inside your pocket, if it were real.
Apple patents the rectangle
Apple's latest patent dispute concerns "a quadrilateral having all four interior angles of 90°, opposite sides that are parallel, and congruent diagonals that bisect each other." Or to put it another way, anything shaped like a rectangle. (Read the full 'story' here.)

One of the hottest bikes at QBP's SaddleDrive event is the new Krampus. A 29er fat bike with 3 inch tires. Complete bikes will be available around March with an MSRP of $1950.
Adam from Surly gives us a close-up look at the all new Krampus in this video:
The complete production bike will feature:
- 1×10 Shimano SLX gruppo (mostly)
- Salsa Whammy handlebar
Frames and tires and rims will be available this Fall with an MSRP of $750 for the frame only.
Surly wondered how big of a tire could they make with a no offset fork. Using standard hubs and cranks, what would be the biggest tire they could use? The Krampus was developed around the Surly Knard tire, a 29er tire with a 3″ width. The tread design was inspired by moto dirt bike tires and the outside diameter of the Knard is 30.5″. The Knard 29×3 weighs in at 820 grams and is available in 120tpi folding or 27tpi wire bead casings.
Complete bike weight (for a large) is about 30 lbs and the weight for large frame is about 6 lbs. The Krampus features the strongest tubeset that Surly has every produced and it is also one of the stiffest frames that Surly makes. The Krampus features Surly 4130 CroMoly steel and a 73mm bottom bracket.
For versatility, they wanted to allow users to tranfer parts from other bikes they might already own. More parts swappability for as much compatibility as possible.
The green paint has a really cool metal flake finish. Mtbr's very own Photo-John got to do a demo ride down one run at Snowbasin today. He was super stoked!
And the name? What the heck is a "Krampus"? Well, a quick check of Wikipedia shows that the Krampus is a mythical creature thought to be like an anti-Claus. A hairy goat like creature that would torment naughty children, the Krampus was most feared. Trevor from Surly says the Krampus was known for "Bringing the Darkness".
We got a cool discussion going here:

After another round of nationwide enlistment, the time has come to find soldiers for the Israeli army's most elite units. In order to be selected among the truly great, soldiers must pass intensive examinations – both mental and physical. We approached Major Danny Ben Dov, the man in charge of physical selections and unit placement for infantry and paratroopers, to learn what it takes to be listed among the best of the best.
You've heard about the units: the Yahalom combat engineers, Duvdevan – the unit responsible for conducting undercover operations against militants in urban areas and Oketz – the elite canine special forces unit. Behind these special units lies a complex placement process. Whether you want to curl up with a German Shepherd, maneuver an advanced UAV, or operate behind enemy lines – the path to achieving this goal is laden with potential pitfalls.
In recent months a new slew of soldiers has reached bases across the country in order to begin their basic training. However, before they could finish lacing up their military boots, practicing telling military time, and getting ready for their first shifts of guard duty, the IDF transfers a select few for special assignments reserved for the very best.
Most units open their doors to potential new recruits, however these young soldiers should take time to seriously consider the proposal, as beyond the acceptance are arduous physical and mental tests specifically designed to push the soldier to the limit.
For those looking to find the secret key to acceptance into these coveted units, the head of physical selections for IDF special units explains which features and attributes assist in weeding out the weak and singling out potential candidates.
"I am responsible for approving all units' selections based on physical criteria in the IDF," said Maj. Ben Dov. "Certain elite units have particular standards and requests for potential soldiers. They require special characteristics and have a very specific screening process for accepting soldiers into their units."
However, contrary to what one might think – that all elite units have the same selection criteria – Maj. Ben Dov clarifies that not all unit classifications and soldier requirements are identical to one another.
"The placement of each soldier is chosen based on the nature of the unit itself and the type of combat soldier the unit is looking for," explained Maj. Ben Dov. The process itself is intricate and includes discussions with the unit's commanders as well.
"The commanders build their selection process by consulting with us, and then we go through the military's professional instructions and general requirements," said Maj. Ben Dov. "Part of the varying features we look for are determination and motivation."
Though physical requirements come most immediately to mind when discussing elite combat units, Maj. Ben Dov maintains that physical strength is not the most significant part in the selection process.
"During the selection process, there are sprinting exercises, lifting exercises and other physical tests, but the main thing is not so much the physical part itself," he said. "We are looking to see the person after the physical aspect, following these tests. There are all kinds of thinking exercises and lengthy discussions, allowing us to see the candidate's abilities to think quickly and express him or herself clearly."
Maj. Ben Dov summarized by explaining that throughout the entire selection process, it is imperative for one to be true to his or her personality traits. "It is important for potential examinees to come prepared both physically and mentally, but most important is to be your true self, because, through the various exercises, we eventually peel through the false stories and get to the true nature of the soldier."

Sponsorship guidelines
The development of new medications for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease has increased the willingness of pharmaceutical companies to sponsor organisations representing relatives and carers of Alzheimer patients.
As a consequence, it has become increasingly important for AE and its national member organisations to develop guidelines on how to deal with the requests of these companies.
The following guidelines are a first attempt to harmonise the relationship between European Alzheimer associations and the pharmaceutical industry.
- AE welcomes the development of new anti-dementia drugs and the investment of the pharmaceutical industry in this field and will seek to establish close contacts with the relevant companies. It hopes to be kept informed of new developments in this sector.
- In all dealings with the pharmaceutical industry, AE and its national organisations shall remain impartial and shall not endorse a particular manufacturer or a particular product.
- Therefore AE and its national associations shall not enter into any agreement, which could threaten their non-profit status.
- Information about members, donors or other confidential information about AE and its national associations shall remain the exclusive property of these and shall not be made available to any third party.
- Information on drugs or clinical trials shall not be presented by AE or its national member associations unless it has been written by persons appointed by the organisations to do so.
- AE and its national member associations are free to accept donations from pharmaceutical companies and other third parties. They will acknowledge such donations in the same way they acknowledge other donations by private persons.
- When accepting sponsorship by pharmaceutical companies or other third parties, AE and its national member associations may acknowledge this sponsorship by appropriate means. Under no circumstances will this acknowledgement include an advertisement for a product.
- Sponsorship does not entitle pharmaceutical companies and other third parties to determine the content of any publication or other information material produced by AE and its national members, nor does it entitle them to determine the programme or speakers at a conference or symposium organised by AE and its national members. At all times, AE and its members should have complete editorial and managerial control.
- AE and its national member associations can lend their support for the development of information material or awareness campaigns by the pharmaceutical companies. Under no circumstances shall AE or its members give their support or logo for a campaign designed to advertise a product.
- At all times, AE and its members will make sure that corporate support for their programs and materials cannot be interpreted as their endorsement of a business, company or product and they will take all necessary steps to avoid such appearance.
- These guidelines constitute a minimal consensus between AE and its member organisations. They are binding on AE whereas the member organisations of AE have the right to adopt other Regulations not in conflict with the principles declared above for their dealings with the pharmaceutical industry and other third parties.
- AE is bound by those guidelines and will not lend its support to events or publications of its member organisations or other interested parties that do not comply with them. The patronage or sponsorship of AE is therefore conditional on the acceptance of these guidelines by the applicant for sponsorship or patronage. AE will withdraw its support if in the course of a project or event, these guidelines are no longer respected.

Parshas Bereishis 5759 - '98
Outline Vol. 3, # 1
Regarding the familiar story of Adom and Chava (Adam and Eve), the Medrash and commentaries provide interesting information. Avos D'rebbi Nosson relates that Adom was told not to eat from the forbidden fruit; in telling his wife, however, he added an extra measure: "Do not even touch it."
This unexplained addition provided the snake with an opening. The snake was easily able to show Chava that there was no immediate harm in touching it. She was then easily convinced that there was no truth to the entire matter!
Adom was told that on the day they would eat of the forbidden fruit, they would die. We see that it truly did not mean that they would die right away, but that death would have to come eventually; or, according to one opinion [see Ramban], death would have to come earlier, as a result of this poisonous food. Obviously, they had understood literally that death would come at the time of the eating.
The Yishmach Moshe asked the following:
In spite of their faulty thinking -- they thought they would actually die on the day of eating -- how would they suppose that death would come about in a single instant? They were told that death would come on the day in which they would eat, not at the instant they would eat!
Rather, the snake explained that there was a doubt as to whether they were to die on that day. Either way wouldn't make a difference: "Are you going to die today, or not? If the whole thing is a fabrication -- and you are not going to die -- then you might as well eat the fruit. If, on the other hand, you really are going to die today, then you might as well eat it and enjoy it while you can."
A subtle, meaningful explanation of the story can be found in the Meshech Chochmah of the Ohr Sameach. Hashem had said that they would die on the day they would eat the fruit. The snake convinced them that Hashem wanted them to eat and die -- as a sort of martyr's self-sacrifice. "The goal is to come close to Hashem, isn't it? Surely this cannot be accomplished through life. Hashem's true intention is that you give your lives to Him and, in so doing, bring yourselves ever closer to Him."
After they ate, they hid themselves. Hashem then said: "Did you eat from the fruit of which I told you NOT to eat? It is not the way the snake convinced you into thinking; My desire was that you not eat from the fruit at all, and not die."
Was Death a Punishment, or Not?
The Yishmach Moshe refers to a commentary which maintains that, indeed, death was not a punishment, but a natural outcome of the eating. In order to attain total completeness, a person would eventually have to die. This will explain why it is that we find that Adom repented and was forgiven, and still had to die -- it had now become impossible to attain a thorough completeness before death.
However, this was a result of the illegal act of eating, and not the Will of Hashem. By bringing death upon themselves, they were trying to outsmart Hashem. Space does not permit further digression, but these commentaries are extremely applicable to our contemporary world...
Chodshei Hashanah Vol. 3, Part 1
The Calendar and the Wisdom of the Jews
An article published in Light, 5 Elul 5737 ('77), concerns Chacham Dovid Nieto. In 5453 (about 1693), church authorities were unable to explain why Easter preceded Pesach by a month. In Livorno (Leghorn), Italy, they asked Rosh Yeshiva Nieto for help. He composed a book in Italian, which explained the calendar differences between the church and synagogue, the possible new differences that were to occur, and all the discrepancies that would arise between the Latin and Greek churches. His explanations were accepted and greatly appreciated.
Creation and the Calendar
We have discussed how the traditional estimate for the average lunar month, 29.53059 days, is exceedingly accurate according to modern standards (within six millionths of a day, according to NASA figures). What is the origin of the calculations?
On tradition, the first Molad after the appearance of man was v/yd (6, 14) -- the sixth day of the week, at the fourteenth hour. Man was created on the sixth day of the week of creation, the day recognized as Rosh Hashanah (according to Rebbi Eliezer). The previous days of the week belong to a theoretical previous year, which is referred to as Sh'nas Tohu. The previous year's Molad, theoretically, would have been b/h/rd (2, 5, 204) -- the second day, the fifth hour, 204 parts of the hour.
The difference between these two figures, divided by 12 months, arrives at 29 days, 12 hours and 793/1080 parts of an hour, which equals 29.53059 days. Any Molad of any month can be determined mathematically, by multiplying the number of months that have passed by 29.53059 (as discussed elsewhere, there are certain rules that push off Rosh Chodesh for a day or two).
The Secret; Cosmic Clock
Rabbenu Bachaye, at the beginning of the Torah (Bereishis [Genesis 1:2]), describes a secret: The first theoretical Molad, coded b/h/rd (2, 5, 204), can be found in the Torah. Beginning with the first letter of the Torah, leaving a space of 42 letters, taking the next letter, again leaving a space of 42 letters, taking the next letter, again leaving a space of 42 letters, and taking one more letter, we have b/h/rd (2, 5, 204).
42, meanwhile, is the special Name of Hashem of 42 letters (actually 42 words), referred to in Talmud, Kiddushin 71. This refers to the attribute of Gevurah (might), associated with creation and nature. "Through many permutations, the actual name of 42 words emerges before the first letter of the Torah, alluding to Hashem's work before the creation... An intelligent person will see that this is not by chance, but is a clear sign of creation... before there were mountains, or the time frame of b/h/rd (2, 5, 204), the attribute of Gevurah (might) was acting..." The Cosmic Clock was operating before there was sun or moon, but would not be counted until the birth of man, which came after the formation of sun and moon...
See the Arachim/Discovery text (original format), Nesivos El Hatorah for more information and sources.
Magid Harakiya shows that it is a debate as to whether these figures were calculated at a much later time -- in reverse -- or received through prophecy and tradition. The Vilna Gaon, who was expertly versed in mathematics and astronomy, concluded (in accordance with Teshuvas Ralbach) that the figures were known by prophecy and tradition. (See also Meshech Chochmah at the very end of the Torah, beginning with "vihenei.")

The final confrontation between Luke, Darth Vader and the Emperor could have looked even more intense, going by these storyboards from Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. In particular, the Emperor looks sort of like Darth Maul crossed with the Joker, in some of these storyboards by artist David Russell.
These images come from an interview with Russell over at The Movie Blog, in which he talks about being influenced by Jack Kirby, and his friendship with author Jack Vance that got him in the door at Lucasfilm. There are more storyboards, plus a whole slew of storyboards from Tim Burton's Batman, at the link.

B9301-124: Sustainability and Investment Management
W - B Term, 04:00PM to 07:15PM
Credit hours: 1.5
Location: URI 141
Instructor: Vinay Nair
Corequisite(s): B6302:
Investing, through allocation of capital, has always had an impact on society. But increasingly, the potential impact on society is factored into the original decision to invest. Sustainable and Responsible Investment (SRI), a USD 7 trillion industry, is one of the more popular terms used to signify this development. SRI's future appears promising as the United Nation's Principles for Responsible Investment initiative (UN PRI) has grown to 570 signatories representing USD 18 trillion of assets.
This course explores SRI within traditional asset management and alternatives; hedge funds and private equity as well as liquid and illiquid investments.
The SRI issues discussed are that of motives, implementation and impact. First, we highlight the diversity in motives that drives investors into SRI. We then use a framework that will guide the discussion for the rest of the class. This introductory part also summarizes the current state of SRI, and the challenges it faces. With this background in place, we focus on two critical components of this movement: Implementation and Impact. How should we incorporate sustainability related variables into investment management? What would we like to do and what can we do today? How does a specific implementation style affect investment returns? How does it affect society? In exploring these issues, we highlight the strong link between implementation and impact.
The various issues discussed in the classroom are presented in the context of investment management with the use of guest speakers, investigation of real-life business models, and a discussion of career opportunities.

Next time I get it set up I will snap a picture. This might not be until 24-Nov because my plan for the 16-Nov target date has changed now since I've run into unexpected complications with the focus (described below).hoi.polloi » November 13th, 2017, 4:03 pm wrote: wonder if you wouldn't mind also getting some kind of picture of the set up with tripod and so on
Just today I found that the "shortened" version of the adapter described at the end of my last post that omits the camera-adapter's eyepiece tube just won't work as shown (in the second set of pictures from my last post). It turns out the focal point of the telescope is just a bit closer than the camera sensor, resulting in a terribly blurred image that is impossible to bring into focus.
However I can get focus if I attach the 2x Barlow lens to the camera-adapter. While the Barlow has the added benefit of doubling the magnification, the connection to the star diagonal (that's the "L" shaped thing the camera is connected to in the pictures in my previous post and is what usually holds the eyepiece when using the telescope normally) is even more awkward than the camera-mount's eyepiece holder.
Further research has indicated I would be better off removing the star diagonal entirely and attaching the camera-adapter directly to the telescope's focusing tube. This is not without it's drawbacks, as without the star diagonal the image in the viewfinder is upside down (which makes directional aiming very confusing because up is down and left is right). It is also more awkward to look through the viewfinder if the telescope is pointed almost straight up.
Fortunately my camera includes Canon software that allows me to USB tether the camera to my laptop so I can see the image there - and also use the connection as a cable shutter release (a very good thing!). The problem is (there's always bad with the good ) I have never used the software so I still need to learn how it works. Telescopic pics will have to wait for the flybys at the end of the month while I test the focus on new adapter configurations and get accustomed to aiming with an inverted image.
I'm learning as I go, so I hope some initial missteps will be forgiven as I figure out the different ways of using the telescope's camera-adapter.
For the 16-November flyby, weather permitting, I will use only the camera on a tripod to get a couple of long-exposure (20-second shutter) images as it flies above the constellation Gemini and through Cancer. These pictures will disclose the accuracy (or lack thereof) of the plotted path shown in Heavens Above's sky-chart. This will be important to know if I am to rely on them for precision aiming.
So for now my planned schedule is:
16-Nov: long exposure pictures with the camera's 70mm lens. I'll also try to see the thing through my telescope, but I won't hook the camera up to it.
24-Nov and 25-Nov: Try out the aiming and focus with the camera-adapter and telescope sans star diagonal. Also working with camera tethering software.
26-Nov, 27-Nov, and 29-Nov: Try to get photos or video footage of ISS through the telescope.
All plans are weather permitting, of course. I'd like to practice the aiming and such before the 24th, but I want to use the Moon as a target and it's night-time visibility won't be where I need it until then.
Walnut Creek, California. Anything more specific than that I can't accommodate as I have an aversion to releasing personally identifiable information on the Internet (I don't even use FaceBook ).hoi.polloi » November 13th, 2017, 4:03 pm wrote:A geolocation we can find on Google
I use Heavens Above for everything because it is so easy. Just select your location from the map and it lists all upcoming ISS flybys in local time. Click on an individual pass and it shows the star chart with the path plotted on it. Click anywhere on the star chart and it will show a magnified view of centered on that spot. The magnified view is very useful because it shows more detail and is also less distorted than the sky chart (which is a projection of a half sphere onto a 2D plane).hoi.polloi » November 13th, 2017, 4:03 pm wrote:Do you mind also please (re)posting the web site you use for tracking time and location of the ISS?
I also use a software program called Stellarium (great software that everyone should get - its free) to check individual flybys and get a feel for exactly how it will track across the sky.

I've seen focaccias of all thicknesses possible. Mine is on the thin side, probably because of the addition of whole wheat flour. I feel like it adds a depth of flavor to it. Of course, the olive oil does a great part of that job. Don't substitute it, please, the result won't be as good.
Rosemary whole-wheat focaccia
Print this recipe
1 1/2 cups bread flour
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1 packet instant yeast
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups water
2 tablespoons olive oil
For topping
1 tablespoon rosemary
3 tablespoons olive oil
Like I said, this post is part of the Bread Baking Day challenge of this month, Italian breads and it will also be sent to Yeastspotting

Poll: Thick Vs Thin Pepperoni
Pizza vox populi.
Despite not even being of Italian origin, pepperoni is the number one default pizza topping. The mass-produced American product is most ubiquitous in its thin sliced form. And despite some pepperoni backlash in 2008, the "bastard" pizza topping is still going strong. So much so that higher-end salumerias are producing versions that can be thick sliced to produce the kind of porky discs that curl into cups and crisp up around the edges—which was the muse for the Best 'Pie-ku' Ever:
Crisp pepperoni,
Edge curled from heat,
A chalice of sweet, hot oil.
--submitted by Mr. Sin in a June 2005 "pie-ku" contest we held
With the options available today, do you like thin wide slices of spicy, salty pork rounds to meld into your pie, or do you prefer the thick, curled, crisp, and chewy slices of 'roni?

Rabbit Island
Okonomiyaki is a popular pan fried food that consists of batter and cabbage. Selected toppings and ingredients are added which can vary greatly (anything from meat and seafood to wasabi and cheese). This variability is reflected in the dish's name; "okonomi" literally means "to one's liking". The dish is available all over Japan, but is most popular in the west, particularly the cities of Hiroshima and Osaka.
Okonomiyaki is sometimes translated into English as "As-you-like-it Pancake". However, this may be misleading. Though it does consist of batter cooked on a griddle, okonomiyaki has nothing of the sweetness or fluffiness of pancakes, not to mention that it is usually filled with octopus, shrimp, pork, yam or kimchi. A more accurate comparison, which is also made, is between okonomiyaki and pizza.
In Japan, people usually eat okonomiyaki at restaurants that specialize in the dish. At some of these restaurants the dining tables are each equipped with an iron griddle ("teppan"), and customers are given the ingredients to cook the meal themselves. As this can be rather daunting, the stages of cooking are enumerated below. Information about regional variations can be found thereafter.
The batter and the ingredients will usually be brought in a bowl. The customer is able to see that everything that was ordered is there, and that it is all fresh and of a good quality.
The batter and ingredients are mixed together thoroughly so that everything is evenly distributed.
After making sure the gas is on and applying oil to the cooking surface, the mixture is poured onto the hot griddle. Short metal spatulas are used to shape the batter into a circle.
Once one side of the okonomiyaki has been sufficiently cooked, the spatulas are used one in each hand to flip it onto the other side. This is the most difficult part of the process, and one needs to make sure that the okonomiyaki has been cooked through enough to hold together.
When both sides of the okonomiyaki are cooked the toppings are added. The first layer is the okonomiyaki sauce, which looks and tastes like Worcestershire sauce. The sauce is applied to the Okonomiyaki with a brush.
Mayonnaise (kept in a tall, clear squeeze bottle) is added to the okonomiyaki, usually in zigzagging lines. Because mayonnaise is a relatively new addition to okonomiyaki, there are a few stores that do not have it available.
Shavings of smoked bonito called katsuobushi are placed on the okonomiyaki with wooden pincers. Because of the heat, the fish shavings move and contort when put on the okonomiyaki.
Small flakes of aonori, a dried seaweed, are sprinkled over the okonomiyaki with a little spoon. The aonori is usually stored right beside the katsuobushi.
The last step is the most enjoyable: eating the okonomiyaki! The spatulas are used to break off pieces to eat, and because the okonomiyaki is left on the griddle while eating, every bite is "fresh off the grill".
For people who prefer to enjoy okonomiyaki without getting involved in the cooking process, there are also traditional restaurants, where the okonomiyaki are prepared by the chef and served ready to eat. Okonomiyaki is also quite easy to make at home. The flour consists of flour, water, eggs and cabbage.
As mentioned earlier, there are two main variations of okonomiyaki; Kansai Style (also called Osaka Style), and Hiroshima Style. The cooking steps above are for the Kansai Style, which is the style of okonomiyaki most commonly found in Japan.
When making okonomiyaki in the Hiroshima Style, the ingredients are not mixed together. Instead, the batter is cooked like a thin crepe and the ingredients are cooked separately. When everything is done the ingredients are placed on the crepe, the toppings are added, and the okonomiyaki is served on top of yakisoba noodles, a distinctive ingredient of Hiroshima style okonomiyaki.
