Nietzsche - The Key Ideas: God is dead
by Dr Roy Jackson
In The Gay Science, published in 1882, Nietzsche introduces the character of a 'madman' who enters a busy market place and asks, 'Where is God?' The madman is mocked by the people in the market, which causes him to say, 'We have killed him, you and I.' What Nietzsche means when the madman says we have killed God is not that God is literally dead, but that our belief or need for God is dead. The so-called 'madman' is only seen as mad by the common people, but for Nietzsche he represents the philosopher – such as Nietzsche himself – who realizes that we no longer truly believe in God and that we must urgently face the consequences of this moral and spiritual gap in our lives. With the death of God, mankind is looking for something to replace Him, and Nietzsche's writings are littered with criticisms of these new replacements, including scepticism, nihilism, feminism, democracy, utilitarianism and scientific positivism. Although Nietzsche is also critical of religion, it is more the modern condition, or 'modernity', that he finds unsatisfactory. In fact, Nietzsche – rather like the madman – was in many ways sincerely religious and spiritual, for religion can provide a vision and meaning to life. But the people of Nietzsche's time have replaced God with a faith in science or other modern '-isms' which fail to provide us with the same kind of meaning. Nietzsche's spirituality calls for a rebirth, for an appreciation of earthly life and nature, represented by the Greek god Dionysus.

Foucault - The Key Ideas: Foucault and knowledge
Foucault was not simply interested in the way knowledge in different subject areas accumulated throughout history, and changed during different historical periods, but in the mechanisms by which this happened.
Foucault - The Key Ideas: Foucault and power
Foucault was very interested in the way in which power and authority was exercised in the world. He investigated the power exercised by institutions, organizations and the state, and in particular the way in which this affected the lives of ordinary people.
Foucault - The Key Ideas: Foucault and politics
In general terms, Foucault appeared to have some reluctance to be a member of an organization such as a political party, which implicitly required him to have a specific ideological view about certain subjects.
Foucault - The Key Ideas: Foucault and punishment
Foucault was very interested in the way in which punishment had changed in different historical periods. He particularly compared and contrasted the type of institutionalized punishment that had existed in the early eighteenth century with that which developed in the modern era.
Foucault - The Key Ideas: Foucault and the Panopticon
The Panopticon was an architectural design for a prison. It was developed initially by the philosopher Jeremy Bentham (1748–1832) in the late eighteenth century.
Foucault - The Key Ideas: Madness and civilization (Foucault)
Foucault noted that the contemporary use of the term 'insane' describes people in a number of different categories, ranging from those who have committed extremely violent acts to those whose behaviour might simply be described as eccentric.
Foucault - The Key Ideas: Foucault and institutions
Foucault devoted considerable time to researching the impact of institutions on society and the lives of individuals. He was interested in the power and influence that they exerted, and also in the fact that some people simply could not avail themselves of the services provided by institutions because they could not understand the systems within which they operated.
Foucault - The Key Ideas: Foucault and sexuality
Foucault's work on sexuality parallels, in a sense, his research on knowledge. He was rather less interested in themes such as the simple history of sexuality, and more in the process by which human beings think of themselves in sexual terms.
Foucault - The Key Ideas: Foucault's legacy
It is worthwhile considering the reasons for Foucault remaining one of the most cited academics within the social sciences. First of all, his writing and scholarship was so diverse that it is very difficult to place him within a particular school of thought.
Catholicism - An Introduction: Confession
Confession is one of the seven sacraments of Catholicism. It is also known as penance, the sacrament of conversion, or more commonly by its modern name, reconciliation. It affords Catholics an opportunity to confess their sins to a priest and receive absolution. Sins can be either 'mortal' – the more serious – or 'venial' – the everyday. Confession of venial sins is recommended but not obligatory.
Catholicism - An Introduction: Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ, Christianity teaches, was born of a virgin mother, Mary, in Bethlehem, grew up in Nazareth, and only began his public life of teaching and healing in AD 30. Three years later he was crucified. He was, according to the Churches, the Son of God, and three days after his death rose from the dead before ascending into heaven.
Catholicism - An Introduction: Mass
The Catholic Church obliges its members to attend Mass on Sundays. They can go instead on the previous (i.e. Saturday) evening. Exceptions are made in cases of serious illness or heavy responsibility for child care, particularly of infants, but absence otherwise is regarded as a grave sin. Despite this, statistics for many hitherto staunchly Catholic countries in the developed world (for example, Ireland) in recent years have shown a fall in the numbers attending Mass every Sunday without fail.
Catholicism - An Introduction: Monks and Nuns
Religious orders – for men and women – have been part of Catholicism since the third century. Members live in communities, based on the model of Jesus and his Apostles. Saint Antony (251–356) is regarded by Catholicism as the founder of monasticism. He gathered like-minded individuals to join loose-knit communities of hermits in the Egyptian desert.
Sikhism - An Introduction: The Pope
An aspect of Catholicism that sets it apart from the rest of Christianity is its loyalty to the papacy. Catholics believe that the Pope in Rome stands in a direct line back to the Apostle Peter and therefore has unparalleled spiritual and teaching authority. In certain matters of faith and morals popes can speak infallibly – without error.
Catholicism - An Introduction: Prayer
All religions have their prayers, ceremonies and rites of passage. Their purpose is to forge a link between humankind and the gods, to provide a forum for spiritual exploration, and to remind individual believers that they are part of something bigger than themselves, both in their own times, and throughout history.
Catholicism - An Introduction: Priests
To become a Catholic priest, you have to be male and willing to live a celibate life after ordination. Study for the priesthood is undertaken in a seminary, either in the local diocese, under the control of the local bishop, or elsewhere. Some candidates, especially those considered to have great academic potential, are sent to study in Rome. The basic training takes six years and includes time spent in parishes and learning by working alongside older priests.
Catholicism - An Introduction: Transubstantiation
Catholics differ from other Christians in their belief in transubstantiation: that, at the moment of consecration of the bread and wine during the celebration of the Eucharist (Holy Communion), Jesus's body and blood are present in more than a symbolic way.
Catholicism - An Introduction: The Vatican
When Christianity achieved official recognition from the Roman Empire in the fourth century, a basilica was built in memory of the first Pope, Saint Peter, on the spot where he had been executed. A century later, a papal palace was added. These sites form the core of what is now known as the Vatican.
Catholicism - An Introduction: The Virgin Mary
Jesus's mother, Mary, features only briefly in the gospel accounts of his life, yet she has become the object of special veneration in Catholicism. She has been exalted by leading theologians since Saint Irenæus, bishop of Lyons in France in the second century.

Strictly speaking a gurdwara is any place where a copy of the Guru Granth Sahib has been formally installed. It may be a room in a private house, often described as Babaji's room.
Nietzsche - The Key Ideas: Apollo and Dionysus
Nietzsche's first major work was The Birth of Tragedy, published in 1871. At the time of writing, Nietzsche was still under the influence of the German composer Richard Wagner (1813–83) and his writings on the importance of art and nature. Wagner argued that art, especially music, can perform the same function as religion as it expresses the essence of nature.
Nietzsche - The Key Ideas: The will to power
The concept of the will to power is one of Nietzsche's most famous contributions to the philosophical tradition, and yet it is a notoriously difficult concept to interpret. The main reason for this difficulty is that Nietzsche, like so much of his thought, is never particularly explicit in his account of the doctrine.
Nietzsche - The Key Ideas: The Superman
In the prologue to Thus Spoke Zarathustra (1885), the proclamation is made that the Superman is on his way. In The Gay Science (1882), Nietzsche talks of the Superman with reference to gods and heroes.
Nietzsche - The Key Ideas: Morality
For Nietzsche, the term 'morality' does not refer to a specific set of values that are out there to be 'discovered'. Rather, morality has a genealogy, a history, and this differs depending upon a particular time, culture and its traditions.
Nietzsche - The Key Ideas: Perspectivism
Nietzsche adopted a view of knowledge that is referred to as perspectivsm which, essentially, argues that there is no such thing as absolute knowledge that is independent of our perspective.
Nietzsche - The Key Ideas: Eternal recurrence
In The Gay Science (1882), Nietzsche presents a 'what if' image. He asks what if a demon were to creep up to you one night when you are all alone and feeling lonely and were to say to you that the life you have lived and continue to live will be the same life you will live again and again for infinity.
Nietzsche - The Key Ideas: Nietzsche and politics
There is considerable debate in academic circles over whether Nietzsche really subscribed to any political views.

Nietzsche was born on 15 October 1844 in Röcken, which is a municipality in the district of Burgenlandkreis in Saxony-Anhalt in Germany.

Modeling the evolution of age-dependent Gini coefficient for personal incomes in the U.S. between 1967 and 2005
AbstractThis study validates the microeconomic model defining the evolution of personal incomes in the U.S. Because of a large portion of population not reporting any income, any comprehensive modeling of the overall personal income distribution (PID) is complicated. Age-dependent PIDs allow overcoming this shortcoming since the portion of population without income is very low (

Lunar Lion is one of only eighteen remaining teams.
Lunar Lion is the only university team in the entire competition.
Even without context that all sounds cool, right? Right. So what's the context?
Not heard of GLXP? It's one of the Google XPRIZE Foundation's challenges and in order to win a non-government team has to get to the moon by the end of 2015.
Lunar Lion hails from Penn State and is one of the eighteen remaining teams. It consists primarily of kids without degrees (undergraduates) with side of grad students. Ya know, all of those millennials who've been ragged on so hard by the mainstream media as of late.
With a spot reserved on a rocket and some thrusters test fired, Lunar Lion is well on its way to soaring to the moon. But the biggest challenge for the team remains: funding. Money is such a pesky thing.
And that, our dear fellow Tumblrers, is where we come in. \o/
On January 20th Lunar Lion kicked off its first crowdfunding campaign on RocketHub. The goal is monies. Lots of monies. Because getting to the moon is totes expensive. Russia, the USA, and now China are the only folks to have done this. (We hear ya. Like wut? Only three?!?)
So obvis, we're asking for donations here! The min donation is $10 for a sparkling and fab digital membership. But, if you have the bigger bucks lying around, you could have your name engraved in gold on the lander!!
Agreed, little dudes. Agreed.
We understand that money doesn't grow on trees. (Donate) But don't you want to be a part of history? Don't you want to be part of what could be our generation's Apollo 11 moment?
The cheapest option by far is reblogging and posting. Basically getting the word out like we're doing. (Donate)
And liking.
And sharing.
And tweeting.
And Youtubing.
And Google+ing.
And Instagramming.
Shove this in your friend's faces!! (Donate) Scream about the moon and maybe do some mooning (totally not endorsed)!! (Donate)
Because STUDENTS are sending a lander to the MOON, which is pretty damn awesome. And you can help! :D

|What is an Estuary?
In most coastal communities, the local "estuary" is known by another name: Chesapeake Bay, Puget Sound, Indian River Lagoon, Cook Inlet. These are all estuaries - but what makes them so, and why are they so important to the country and to the 110 million Americans who live near their shores?
Estuaries are bodies of water along our coasts that are formed when freshwater from rivers flows into and mixes with saltwater from the ocean. In estuaries, the fresh river water is blocked from streaming into the open ocean by either surrounding mainland, peninsulas, barrier islands, or fringing saltmarshes. This mixing of fresh and saltwater creates a unique environment that brims with life of all kinds -- a transition zone between the land and sea known as an estuary. The estuary contains an abundance of life - gathering nutrients from the land and from the ocean, forming an ecosystem that contains more life per square inch than the richest Midwest farmland.
Why are healthy estuaries important to us? Estuaries are a critical source for much of our ocean life. Their bounty forms a natural wonder that offers the more than 50% of Americans who live near estuaries, and the millions who visit, a wealth of recreational opportunities. Estuaries provide essential habitat for over 75 percent of our nation's commercial fish catch. Commercial and recreational fishing, boating and tourism also provide more than 28 million jobs. Fishing alone generates $111 billion yearly in economic activity.
The tourism value of estuaries to local and regional economies is significant: in 1993 more than 180 million Americans visited coastal waters nationwide -- nearly 70 percent of the U.S. population. And, in one year alone (1991), 73 million people in the U.S. spent more than $10 billion on recreational boating products and services.
Estuaries are important to our quality of life and our health for reasons other than jobs, healthy economies, and recreational opportunities. The local bay or sound often serves as the focal point for community life and traditions, hosting everything from harvest festivals to busy ports. They also protect water quality, are a center for research and education, and help stem the erosion of our shoreline communities.
Estuaries, in short, are national treasures -- vital ecological and community resources whose health affects our health and the vibrancy of our communities and economy.

This blog may be triggering or offensive. Please leave if you have a problem with that.
I am the sinking feeling in your gut when you realise you aren't enough. I am the blemishes you cover up with silky powder. I am the lies you pretend you didn't tell. I am the flaw in your perfection. I am the one you forgot.
I should put in some background info first. I live in a state where in year 11 and 12 (when you're 16-18), all of your assignments combine to make your university entrance score. It's a bit more complicated than that. I go to a public school, but I used to go to a Christian private school. My friend currently goes to a [different] Christian private school.
I am a Christian. I am NOT against religious education/Christian Studies in Christian schools.
At this school, for the ENGLISH classes [which are compared to all the work of all the other students doing English in the state, and are essential to most university courses] are based on a Christian curriculum. The students have to answer questions about whether or not characters' actions are biblically correct, or whether a book is a good or bad influence from a Christian perspective. They are more complex than that, but they are directly Christian questions.
This is BULLSHIT.
Private schools automatically have more money, and therefore better resources. The teaching is better because the salaries are negotiable, make it more competetive. You cut out a lot of the people who don't care about working in the lower socio-economic classes.
There are LOTS of reasons to enrol your child in a private school, REGARDLESS of your religion. And there are no [affordable] non-religious private schools in our area.
Even as a Christian, an English class should be taught from a neutral perspective. I could understand if the texts chosen were more censored than a public school - choosing not to study books like A Clockwork Orange, for example. But blatantly making it so that one must study religious classes or not be able to have a university education?
Thats bullshit.

In a few weeks I'll be putting my Challenger away for the Winter and was wondering about where to hook up the battery tender. Can I hook it up to the connections under the hood where you would jump start it or do I have to hook it directly to the battery in the trunk? Thanks.
I know this is going to sound stupid but my knowledge of battery power is limited.
I want to connect my Battery Tender under the hood with the allegator clips. There is the Positive post and the Ground connector. How do I connect the clips? Which clip goes to which connector?

20 U.S. Code § 1011h - Binge drinking on college campuses
(a) Short title
This section may be cited as the "Collegiate Initiative To Reduce Binge Drinking and Illegal Alcohol Consumption".
(b) Sense of Congress
It is the sense of Congress that, in an effort to change the culture of alcohol consumption on college campuses, all institutions of higher education should carry out the following:
(1) The president of the institution should appoint a task force consisting of school administrators, faculty, students, Greek system representatives, and others to conduct a full examination of student and academic life at the institution. The task force should make recommendations for a broad range of policy and program changes that would serve to reduce alcohol and other drug-related problems. The institution should provide resources to assist the task force in promoting the campus policies and proposed environmental changes that have been identified.
(2) The institution should provide maximum opportunities for students to live in an alcohol-free environment and to engage in stimulating, alcohol-free recreational and leisure activities.
(3) The institution should enforce a "zero tolerance" policy on the illegal consumption of alcohol by students at the institution.
(4) The institution should vigorously enforce the institution's code of disciplinary sanctions for those who violate campus alcohol policies. Students with alcohol or other drug-related problems should be referred for assistance, including on-campus counseling programs if appropriate.
(5) The institution should adopt a policy to discourage alcoholic beverage-related sponsorship of on-campus activities. It should adopt policies limiting the advertisement and promotion of alcoholic beverages on campus.

Lightbox, episode deux of Love Kills Demons, a twelve-part film portrait of Chris Rubino by Jim Helton.
Love Kills Demons is 12 short films by Jim Helton. Much like Bertrand Russell's definition of electricity these films are "not so much a thing as a way things happen." They are a window into the spirit of an artist looking for change. Over the span of one year filmmaker Jim Helton documented New York-based artist Chris Rubino while he searched for a new direction in his work. In the process we see screenprinting, drawing, painting, wandering as well as a peak inside the workings of a studio and an artist's process. The final 12 part film that is Love Kills Demons takes a look behind the proverbial curtain exposing some of the mystery of creation supported by the otherworldly sounds of Big Blood.

Common Core Standards, that have been a hot topic for years, will be in full force in Hillsborough County classrooms next year. This year teachers will continue to ease students into the new world.
Back to School: Special Section
Dawn Norris, a teacher at Monroe Middle School, has been using Common Core Standards in her classroom for the last four years.
"It's a good thing. It's a really good thing," she said.
She places goals that align with Common Core on her wipe board every day. Norris says the standards prepare her students for more real world reading.
"My students are able to see what they need to know by the end of the year, end of the day, end of the week," Norris said. "They really analyze the informational text now."
According to the Hillsborough County Schools website, the definition of Common Core Standards is a little vague. The standards:
Norris says it boils down to two things: critical thinking and goal setting. Florida is just one of 45 states taking on the standards.
"Being so close to MacDill, we get a lot of transfer students," Norris said. "We have a lot of students that come in in the middle of the year, or they might come in at the end of the year, and I know that with Common Core all of my students have common goal and objectives. If a student comes from Baltimore or Boston or wherever, they're going to be learning at the same pace my kids are learning here."
Not everyone's happy about the change. It's caused a political firestorm, with republicans wanting education to be mandated at the state and local, not national, level. Hillsborough County School Board Members have voiced their concerns as well. Norris assures parents, though, that it's for the best.
"It's made us better as teachers and it will make them better and more prepared as students."

Anonymous asked:
Hi! What's up with more fun and most fun vs. funner and funnest?
I answered:
If you're talking about "fun" as a noun, then it's definitely "more fun" and "most fun," e.g., I have more fun watching paint dry than memorizing vocabulary words.
If you're talking about "fun" as an adjective, the answer is "funner" and "funnest":
However, many grammarians and dictionaries point out that "fun" should used only as a noun in formal writing. Therefore, "funner" and "funnest" would be inappropriate. Here is the traditional explanation:
Since there are numerous words that mean "fun" (as an adjective), e.g., amusing, entertaining, use them instead in formal writing:
- The book is more entertaining than the movie.
- Your excuse is the most amusing thing I've heard all day.
Have "fun"!

Innovation at Det Norske Veritas
Infosys is constantly looking to nurture innovation wherever it might be. With this rationale, the organization commits itself to not only identifying bright young talent but also equipping them with the tools they need to bring their ideas to life.
A very successful private equity investor once shared with delegates of a packed conference that he spends more time on the road than he does in his office. The reason, he said, is that he wants to see firsthand the types of companies in which his firm is considering investing. Not only that, but he would go to exotic lands during the worst times (weather-wise) of the year. Monsoons would hit the coasts, earthquakes would shake cities, and snowstorms would cripple roads and airports.
Google was faced with a challenge. So many people were using its search engine that Google was trying to keep up with the skyrocketing demand. Enter two developers - Jeffrey Dean and Sanjay Ghemawat. These Google developers recently won the ACM-Infosys Foundation Award in the Computing Sciences for designing a significant part of Google's revolutionary software infrastructure – Google's Web search and indexing platforms as well as other Google applications.
My friend's organization was spending upwards of 3% of its revenue on IT. The corresponding figure for its peers is approximately 1.8% to 2.3%. So, does that mean my friend's business has got its math all wrong?
I watched a show recently about how India is making efforts to build out its power grid to meet the needs of a rapidly growing population. What drew me in to this spot on the NewsHour television program was the anecdote told by Rajdeep Sardesai, one of the country's prominent news presenters.
The first day at the World Economic Forum was warmer than expected, but I am told that it will get colder as the week progresses. I hope this does not happen with the dialogues at Davos during the week.
Global figures like Kofi Anan and Shashi Tharoor tell us that, perhaps, the single most powerful tool for improving the world is educating women and girls.
For the past 14 years, Infosys has been attending the World Economic Forum's annual meeting at Davos. I have been a part of the delegation for 9 years now. In all these years, a lot has changed about Davos - the magic mountains is a more buzzing place now, the number of visiting delegates has gone north and the weather seems warmer than earlier years.
Sometimes, an idea, simple though it may be, can single-handedly change the way the world works. It can empower economies to put payment systems into the hands of the unbanked millions. Enable global corporations to reduce energy footprints.
Sometimes when you travel, you hear news from home you might have missed in your everyday life. This week I read an interesting article about my local library in Manly, a suburb Sydney, that made me think about leadership.
The weather at Davos was by and large fine. So is the mood. There is a sense of optimism and a sense that the worst is behind us. A few are even commenting that the financial crisis is behind us.
A corporation's social responsibility is no longer a point of contention. Now, more organizations are going beyond talking about it or donating to worthy social causes. Some organizations are taking greater ownership and are creating a visible impact by tackling some of the larger issues plaguing their societies.
I am overwhelmed by the privilege of having hosted Nobel laureate Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, on Saturday, when she paid a visit to our headquarters in Bangalore.Several hours after we'd said our goodbyes, I found myself pondering over her famous speech on Freedom from Fear, which begins something like this : "It's not power that corrupts, but fear. Fear of losing power corrupts those who wield it and fear of the scourge of power corrupts those who are subject to it..."
Any discussion around business aspiration usually starts out as a simple, even monosyllabic exercise - "growth", "profit", "share". With a little bit of probing, there comes the realization that aspirations have grown along with the organization, taking on as many dimensions as the organization itself.
I received the news of Mr. NR Narayana Murthy being awarded the James C. Morgan Global Humanitarian Award, with great delight. But, I'm not surprised at all. As the inspiration behind Infosys and mentor to countless Infoscions, Mr. Murthy has always been passionately vocal about his belief that wealth must serve a societal purpose.
It's a world of growing complexity and changing dynamics. And, I often find many vexing challenges, that businesses face, stem from the fact that they must, on the one hand, add on new capabilities to adapt to change, and on the other rationalize these add-ons in the interests of organizational efficiency and operational simplicity.
It's one thing for a company to be socially responsible but what is the best way to communicate this activism to your customers? You guessed it. Facebook, Twitter, and other social media web sites are a sure path to show customers that businesses are caring, participating members of the community - whether brick and mortar or cyberspace or both.
Infosys has been identified among the top 25 performers in caring for climate initiative. Well, visit one of our campuses and you'll see straight away that we are an environmentally conscious company.
The world is currently grappling with the challenge of having to adapt to rapid change. With 7 billion people and counting, there is now a lot more to worry about if the planet is to endure. Sustainability is no longer a synonym for a softer form of environmentalism
Certainly everyone wants to recycle waste and protect the environment but we are limited by the lack of a viable systematic approach. The solution lies not in reducing waste but in making waste generation and consumption a cyclical process, mimicking the way nature does this task. In supply chain, such a process is done by closing the loop by pairing the process of forward with reverse logistics.
As consumer demand for green products continues to rise, enterprises are keen to implement sustainability in product lifecycles. Responsible supply chain spans complete product lifecycle including, design, manufacturing, packaging, transportation and disposal. Managing and maintaining optimal harmony in input and waste determines the success of a supply chain and thereby the product.
Enterprises that embark on sustainability management initiatives soon realize that carbon footprint reduction initiatives are actually an energy game. Measures taken to lower carbon footprint inevitably leads to energy efficiency thus making carbon a loss leader to energy. But what are more important are sustained energy efficiency operations that facilitate cost savings through reduction in overall energy usage and lower carbon footprint as a derivative.
As organizations spruce up their sustainability goals and performance metrics choosing the right software to measure sustainability gains credence. At present, the software market is fragmented with multiple players. Enterprise selection of right software depends on clear identification and establishment of sustainability goals and identification of KPIs to analyze pertinent data.
Unexpected outages call for rethink on device purchase decisions based on energy consumption. Sustainable energy practices necessitate understanding of energy efficiency ratings and load pattern to facilitate efficient energy consumption.
Sustainable future in energy consumption calls for tapping renewal sources of energy in addition to traditional sources. But installed capacity for alternative sources remains abysmally low in emerging economies. What hinders their progression to the desired state? Find out.
Three core principles lay the foundation for Infosys' view of Sustainable Tomorrow. They are Resource Intensity, Green Innovation and Social Contracts. The first principle, Resource Intensity, aims to do more with less simultaneously reducing dependence on natural resources and reducing costs in the bargain. Find out how.
Sustainability provides organizations an opportunity to transform themselves – both internally and externally, especially with regard to how it engages with external stakeholders. With a broad platform of opportunities, enterprises need to define a procedure for extracting information from such initiatives.
In addition to financial metrics, businesses have to measure two other sets of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) – environmental and social. With a heightened level of awareness from monitoring and analyzing sustainability data comes accountability for poor performance and reward for good performance. Learn how to cope with the New Order.
Information now spreads freely and rapidly over the net. This helps ordinary citizens raise a collective voice against global giants. And it's much more convenient than actually taking to the streets, so it's also easier to recruit support and elicit greater participation.

Youth athletics
Youth is a category of athletics in which athletes compete under the age of 18 years.
Description and development[edit]
The problems of adolescence in modern times are of various kinds, ranging from obesity to depression, so the practice of sport is important, in particular it to introduce young people to practice athletics and furthermore prevent these problems through the many benefits that sports have for kids.[1] Athletics for adolescents can provide a way to learn various significant life skills in a fun and enjoyable manner. Skills they can learn through participation in sports include teamwork, leadership, responsibility, discipline, and communication.[2] Sport for social development is a way in which sports can have a positive impact on youth. Young athletes can utilize these valuable skills for the rest of their lives. Once young athletes become more experienced in sports, they often desire to play at a more serious level. More serious levels of athletics are accomplished by travel sports teams that young athletes have to try out for to make. These travel sports teams compete against other teams of similar talent levels. Travel sports leagues for kids show a more competitive aspect to youth athletics. Participate in the competitions in this class, athletes who have not completed their eighteenth birthday on 31 December of the Competicion.[3] The IAAF provides a youth development program of athletics, named Youth Programme.[4]

11 amazing technologies that have totally changed our world for the better
Summary: What are the most awesome technology creations that have changed the world that we live in? Let's start with these.
1 of 11Image
Fibre Optics
Fibre optic technology was first demonstrated in the 1840's by Colladon and Babinet. Fibre optic tubes refract light within glass tubes with little loss of light over the length of the tube.
In 1880 Alexander Graham Bell developed the technology to transmit voice signals over an optical beam. Bundled together, fibre optic cables are immune to electrical interference making them good for use in computer networking. Fibre optic transmissions are also much harder to snoop and are therefore considered more secure.
Image: Improve Techno
Graphene will completely revolutionise technology. Created at the University of Manchester, UK, graphene is a layer of graphite one atom thick. It is very strong, an excellent conductor of heat and electricity and is predicted to transform mobile devices.
Imagine a flexible cellphone or tablet –or ultra thin strong condom. The Gates Foundation has given $100,000 to research the development of a super thin and durable condom made of latex and graphene.

The Patagonia R2 ski fleece makes a great layer or standalone garment. It's lightweight and breathable, keeping you warm without holding you down, and the directional knit wicks moisture out and speeds the jacket's drying time. The collar and chin flap are lined with Polartech Power Stretch fabric to prevent irritation, and Power Stretch fabric below the arms improves comfort and mobility. Also, there are plenty of pockets for quick access gear storage. Get versatile performance and all day comfort with the Patagonia R2 ski fleece.
R2 Ski
As somewhat of a Patagonia hore (probably due to the proximity and deals of the outlet here in No-town) I have A LOT of Patagonia pieces and my wife and I both (and everyone we know) all rock the R2 as an essential wardrobe piece and have done so for a number of years. In addition to using this as action sports gear, I wear it in my law offic probably 3 out of 5 days a week, it's great with a t-shirt, button-down, polo or basically whatever. Althought it's fuzzy it actually sheds dog hair fairly well. Not a big fan of the new R2 fabric, but you can still get past year's if you know where to look, and the new ones aren't bad either. GET THE R2 IF YOU DON'T ALREADY HAVE IT
I have an R2 jacket and love it. It fits and keeps you warm just like a Northface Jacket with a fraction of the price!! Good jacket for brisk mornings. Would highly reccomend.

In honor of Louis Armstrong's birthday, watch a great interview with the legendary trumpet player, courtesy of Blank on Blank.
On this day, June 17th in 1967, John Coltrane died at the of 40 from liver cancer at a hospital on Long Island.
His death took many in the musical community by surprise as Coltrane kept his health condition private. Miles Davis said that "Coltrane's death shocked everyone, took everyone by surprise. I knew he hadn't looked too good. But I didn't know he was that sick or even sick at all."
Coltrane's funeral service was opened by the Albert Ayler Quartet and closed by the Ornette Coleman Quartet.

Happy birthday to John Coltrane & Ray Charles, two musicians who changed the world.

Rebirth of the cool.
Freelance photographer Robert Campbell captured jazz in bloom. As a young man in New York City in the '50s and '60s, Campbell photographed legends in the making, including iconic images of John Coltrane, Chuck Berry, Art Blakey, and the Modern Jazz Quartet.
Saddled with debt and suffering from mental illness, Campbell retreated from public view with his entire life's work in tow. He spent the rest of his life in Burlington, Vermont living in obscurity — his images largely forgotten — until his death in 2001.
Photographer Jessica Ferber is trying to write a new ending to this sad tale. Having come across Campbell's astonishing archive nearly a decade ago, Ferber has spent years working to bring his images into the public eye. She recently launched a Kickstarter project to fund the publication of a complete retrospective — marking the first public presentation of Campbell's work since it was created half a century ago.
The Ghost Train Orchestra is a smokin' hot 10-piece band that brings to life long-lost classics from the Jazz Age and beyond.
Devoted to under-appreciated composers of the prewar era, the Ghost Train Orchestra combines historical research with an all-star crew of seasoned jazz players to kick out the jams in all their sepia-toned glory. Bandleader Brian Carpenter has transformed 16 months of deep digging into a new arrangements of very old tunes, and he's looking for support on Kickstarter to make an album from his discoveries.
So mosey down to the gin joint and get ready to jitterbug — this swell phonograph record is our Project of the Day.
The Case of the Three-Sided Dream.
Rahsaan Roland Kirk was a legendary jazz innovator who challenged the cultural status quo while blowing audiences away.
With a reputation for ecstatic live performances that showcased his surreal ability to play multiple instruments simultaneously, Kirk combined humor, activism and thunderous grooves to shape the sound of jazz to come.
Having become blind at an early age, Kirk expressed an unusually close relationship to his sense of hearing. When asked to describe his occupation, Kirk frequently replied: "Sound."
After suffering a debilitating stroke at the height of his career, Kirk continued to play and record. He died of a second stroke in 1977 at age 42.
Filmmaker Adam Kahan has been working on this documentary about Kirk for more than a year and most of the film is in the can. He recently launched a Kickstarter project to help him fund a critical stage production so he can clear the rights required to use a wealth of archival footage in the final cut.
Legendary jazz trombonist Roswell Rudd just became our first ever creator to fax in his Q&A. It actually ended up working out pretty well.
At the ripe old age of 75 Roswell Rudd was named Downbeat's "Trombonist of the Year." Now he's teaming up with a dynamic, young rhythm section to produce a new album, which will feature original arrangements of tunes made famous by Bob Dylan, Brian Wilson, Sam Cooke, and more. If that doesn't convince you, just listen to the man speak for himself in his compelling project video:
I've spent my life developing a way of expressing my personality through a trombone. When I'm performing a standard, inevitably, it will come out with some of my fingerprints on it and some of my signature, because I love — emotionally, musically, and every other way — some of these songs so much, that I end up composing something that's parallel to what I began with.You'll want to be his new best friend, trust us. In the meantime, we're doing the next best thing and making him our Project of the Day.
KSR IRL: Sunday 10/2 @ REDCAT in LA, Angel City Arts honors Roscoe Mitchell, a living legend who turns 71 this year, with a special tribute concert at the 2011 Angel City Jazz Festival.
"One of the most influential woodwind players to come out of Chicago's AACM movement of the mid-'60s, Roscoe Mitchell is a brilliant and adventurous improviser, and founding member of the Art Ensemble of Chicago. He's also an acclaimed composer of new music and is currently the "Distinguished Darius Milhaud Professor of Composition" at Mills College in Oakland, CA.
…Roscoe's trio with percussionist William Winant and woodwind player James Fei will perform a new piece that Roscoe has written for the occasion. In addition, percussionist Alex Cline will lead an all-star ensemble in a special performance of Roscoe's landmark composition People in Sorrow, featuring eleven distinguished musicians including saxophonist Oliver Lake, vocalist Dwight Trible, pianist Myra Melford, harpist Zeena Parkins, and bassist Mark Dresser."
Today's Project of the Day is a tribute to jazz great Roscoe Mitchell.
When I was in college I took a class called Jazz. It was, more or less, an introductory course for the genre, ranging from Sidney Bechet's dixieland to post-Bitches Brew Miles and the outer-limits of Ornette Coleman's experiments in Free Jazz. Yet, what I'll always remember about that class was my introduction to the Art Ensemble of Chicago, a group of experimental musicians from the Windy City who not only blended a myriad of sub-genres (bop, african polyrhythms, free jazz) into their work, but also utilized "non-instruments" like bicycle horns and noisemakers to create a cacophonous blend of music so far out an earthling could hardly relate, rather simply sit back and ingest in awe. The power behind those motifs changed a lot of people, including Nels Cline (Wilco) and his brother, percussionist Alex Cline, who is currently working on a tribute to Roscoe Mitchell, one of the founding fathers of the Art Ensemble of Chicago. If you are in LA, this is one not to miss.
…He's chosen passion over cynicism, and he's done it with the assistance of Kickstarter…This is not charity. Nobody's asking for your altruistic magnanimity on Kickstarter. They're only asking that your self-interest manifest itself in art's actualization. They're offering you the opportunity to become complicit in its creation.
—Lary Wallace on why he donated to Keith Henry Brown's Jazz Graphic Novel, an "interpretive biography" of jazz great Eric Dolphy.
Two days left for Keith H. Brown's jazz graphic novel project, Eric Dolphy: His Life and Art. Brown's "interpretive biography" of the jazz multi-instrumentalist/composer, is drawn in the style of the great album covers of the 1940s and 50's. As a former Marvel Comics cartoonist, Creative Art Director launching Jazz at Lincoln Center, radio jockey, jazz journalist, painter, and album artist, Brooklyn-based Brown is his own multi-instrumentalist, and we're totally delighted and inspired by his beautiful project!

my boyfriend always gets horny when he drinks don't get me wrong I like it but I've always wondered why? do you get horny?
What's Your Opinion?
Most Helpful Opinion
Alcohol makes the blood thinner so maybe it increases the flow to the penis and decreases the flow of oxygen to the brain causing this temporary outage.Or maybe it's that people are uninhibited when they are drunk.
What Guys Said 6
Up to a certain point (usually around 4 beers), then each drink after that I find my sex drive and erection strength drastically decreases
actually most guy's get less horny when they drink, they instead are just less ably to think things through.
I don't drink, I can't gain any more weight
Beer lowers our inhibitions. Guys are always horny, thus with lowered inhibitions it comes through more. Anything north of seven beers for me and my interest begins to wane though
They're always horny. Being drunk just makes them hide it less.
not true for all guys.

Business aircraft operators planning to fly to Britain for next summer's Olympic Games are being encouraged to make early requests for mandatory landing and takeoff slots at airports in what will be heavily restricted airspace in the southeast of England.
Controlled airspace
Ash from a volcano in Iceland brought disruption to European air transport last month on a scale that far exceeded the combined efforts of global terrorism and the financial crisis. Huge swaths of the continent's airspace were closed for prolonged periods and hundreds of thousands of travelers were stranded at various points around the world for days on end.
Some flights to large parts of Europe resumed today after six days of widespread disruption caused by ash from an erupting volcano in Iceland. Following the political intervention of European Union transport ministers late yesterday, restrictions were partially lifted in some countries but there was little or no flying in a core area of northern Europe.
The cloud of volcanic ash continues to move south through the UK and continental Europe as the eruption in Iceland persists.
For the upcoming European football championship, jointly hosted by Switzerland and Austria, the Zurich police department has decided to supplement its crowd control systems using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) supplied and operated by the Swiss air force as observation platforms. Light drones are cheaper to fly than manned aircraft and will free helicopters for other tasks such as carrying personnel.
While the FAA moves forward with its operational evolution plan (OEP) to increase National Airspace System capacity by the end of this decade, a major consideration will be how many aircraft are equipped to take advantage of the resulting improvements in efficiency.
Britain's National Air Traffic Services (NATS) is stepping up operating trials aimed at making greater use of both en route and terminal area airspace. New procedures being evaluated include the use of parallel offset tracks in place of radar headings alone; closer spacing of parallel routes with autonomous operations; and the use of precision area navigation (PRnav) procedures for terminal area control.
considers new
fee structure
Eurocontrol is evaluating proposals to introduce new "charging volumes for airspace" in which different ATC fees would apply for using different parts of Europe's airspace. This would result in operators paying higher rates for using lower flight levels and particularly busy airspace sectors, such as those in southeast England.
Phase One of a proposal by the UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) to improve airspace capacity will require aircraft owners in the UK to upgrade to a Secondary Surveillance Radar (SSR) Mode-S transponder by March 31, 2012. In addition, all new installations of SSR transponders must be Mode-S compliant beyond March 31 next year.
Europe's controlled airspace is to be expanded to absorb air transport growth, leaving the general aviation community with the prospect of paying air traffic management fees and having to adjust to a more complex operating environment.

WWE has instructed Ryback to do moves associated with Goldberg, in order to tease a potential match between the two.
"People will say Ryback - 'What would Warrior have been like with Ryback?' Or Goldberg. I know why they say those things - because of the intensity and body look, the aggression, the power. Those kind of matches tend to be f**king stinkers, you know? You want to work with somebody who's got a different style. Wrestling is more than just being big."
WWE has instructed Ryback to do moves associated with Goldberg, in order to tease a potential match between the two.
"Special thanks to the Rock for making my childhood dream come true! U have no idea how many couches and old mattresses I jumped off thinking I was one of y'all! U, Ultimate Warrior, Sting, Legion of Doom, Goldberg and The Undertaker I could watch all day plus many more! I feel like a little kid again. Thanks again Champ!"
- NBA superstar LeBron James
While the chances of it happening are extremely close to none because the two sides simply cannot come to an agreement on financial terms, WWE is still holding out a little bit of hope that they can sign Goldberg and have him wrestle Ryback at Wrestlemania 30.
There were rumors that WWE had a million dollar deal on the table for Goldberg to make an appearance and work Wrestlemania 30, but the former WCW Heavyweight Champion took to Twitter to let fans know that there is no truth to the rumors.
While negotiations have not advanced too far, WWE still wants Goldberg to make a return and work a big match at Wrestlemania 30. In fact, there are those that believe that the creative department is saving a spot specifically for him.
The negotiations between WWE and Goldberg are not going too well at the moment, as the former WCW star is asking for a really high amount of money to work Wrestlemania 30.

We Tried It: New Snack Bars From Luna and Kind
Written on June 21, 2012 at 2:46 pm , by Karla Walsh
New snack bars seem to pop up on supermarket shelves nearly every week. With so many options, it's hard to know which are worth your money—and calories. Recently, readers and staff members chewed and scored for our best bar food awards, and since then a few new items have caught our eye. The FITNESS team did the tasty work of testing out the latest in the Luna Fiber and Kind lines. Read on for their honest feedback!
Luna Fiber Vanilla Blueberry
- "I loved the rich blueberry taste and at 110 calories, it's a great go-to snack for my 3 p.m. munchies." — Kathy Green, managing editor
Luna Fiber Chocolate Raspberry
- "For 110 calories, I think you might as well have a real cookie. I really like the crunchy Luna bars, so I was surprised at the over-syrupy, artificial taste." — Betty Wong, editor in chief
Luna Fiber Peanut Butter Strawberry
- "I immediately noticed the strawberry flavor, then the peanut butter hit my taste buds after. This would be a good on-the-go treat before hitting the gym." — Samantha Shelton, editorial assistant
Kind Dark Chocolate Nuts & Sea Salt
- "The first bite was so flavorful and had a lot of depth. It was crunchy and is truly one of the best bars I've ever had. I have to buy a crate and keep them in my fridge." — Lapo Belmestieri, freelance designer
Kind Dark Chocolate Cinnamon Pecan
- "This tasted like French toast drizzled in dark chocolate!" — Colleen Moody, web editor
Kind Cashew & Ginger Spice
- "It's nice and crunchy, and since it's mostly nuts, you could tell that it doesn't have the filler junk that a lot of snack bars do. It wasn't too sweet, which I like, but it was filling. Even half would be a good post-workout snack!" — Lisa Turner, editorial intern
Now tell us: What are your favorite snack/breakfast/energy bars?
