I am totally bored of defending my sexuality just because I am a woman. I am tired of hearing male friends say things like "women fantasise more about the intimacy of sex and men about the actual act of sex" or "she has a vibrator and is therefore way horny" (rather than having a pretty normal sex drive) or "women get more offended by emotional cheating and don't really mind much about the actual sex" or "women like having gentle and loving sex, whereas men want to, you know, fuck" or "I can't believe it - her sex drive is equal to mine and I am a man". Porn is a perfect example of sexism within sex: totally primarily catering towards a straight male sexual appetite. (It also has totally ridiculous ideas of what a ~sexual encounter~ actually is! Sex shouldn't be a few minutes of clumsy genital stimulation, 8 minutes of dull pounding and then ejaculation. I dunno, maybe there's a correlation here.)
There's also that whole assumption that men are the ones who are "tied down" by women in a straight relationship, rather than an equal agreement to be monogamous - it is apparently only men who potentially suffer from having only one sexual partner. With this overwhelmingly common assumption that men enjoy/value sex more than women, and with the focus on male sexual pleasure during sex, it is seriously no wonder that faking orgasms is a thing.
It is crazy and upsetting that rape is seen as a sexual act that women may actually secretly enjoy, whereas enjoyment of consenting sex is seen as something very male.
Totally sucks.

Basement Layout
Paul Weidner
February 9, 2013 in Design Dilemma
We are finally getting around to finishing our basement. We want it to be the place to watch the game, play pool, video games, watch movies, etc. I have started designing it in Sketchup. I would like to add a small bar area but do not know where to in this setup. Also, the poker table is not one of our 'requirements'. We have the pool table and arcade right now. Any advice or questions are welcome!
Note:To the left of where the TV is there is a spiral staircase taking up 6'x6'ish. The doorway leads to the older part of the basement with smaller ceilings.
Note:To the left of where the TV is there is a spiral staircase taking up 6'x6'ish. The doorway leads to the older part of the basement with smaller ceilings.
Two options. Put the bar in the recess where the poker table is shown. You may need to turn the pool table the other direction to have enough room for taking shots. What is the white thing at the pool table end? Is the arcade in the corner by the poker table? Another option would be to put the bar and arcade in the end with the stairs. Could the arcade fit under the spiral? Then you could put the pool table in the center of the space with plenty of navigation room around it. Que racks and a few chairs for the players could go in the recess area. The sectional could float at the other end and not seem so crammed in with the stairs. That way you might have room for a coffee table and an armchair to work with it. I assume the big white item is a built-in which could serve to hold a flat screen TV.

Glennair steps up bizav Mx training
To address the shortage of qualified business aircraft maintenance technicians, the UK's Glennair Training Centre is stepping up its capabilities in the provision of both mechanical and avionics courses for executive aircraft operator or service center personnel. Formed in 1980, Glennair (Booth No. 1113) employs specialist instructors who provide training at the company's headquarters and courses at the customers' premises.
The company holds EASA Part 147 approval for many executive/ corporate aircraft types on both B1 and B2 ratings, including the majority of the Dassault Falcon range, the Raytheon Hawker 125-700, 800 and 1000 series, as well as the Cessna 550 and 560 Citations. Approvals for corporate turboprop types include the Raytheon Beech 1900 and King Air 200, 300 and 350 aircraft, while further models are currently in the approval process.
In addition to its extensive range of B1 and B2 courses, Glennair also offers continuation and refresher training for aircraft engineers and aviation maintenance technicians, as well as human factors training. But while actively engaging in the VIP/executive aircraft maintenance training market generally, Glennair is currently developing a division of the company dedicated to meet the needs of Falcon jet operators based mainly in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
To support that aim, the company is in the process of becoming a Dassault authorized training provider and this will add to Glennair's standing already established by EASA approval and ISO9001 certification.

150 Jumping Jacks. Right Now!!!
To stretch or not to bother? That is the question athletes and weekend warriors ponder, as advice varies on the importance of stretching before a workout.
It's important to distinguish between stretching and warming up, says Lynn Millar, a professor of physical therapy at Winston-Salem State University. A warm-up "is something designed to get the blood flowing and muscles ready for activity. Stretching can certainly be part of that," she says. "I don't know any coach who would say stretching alone is adequate preparation before activity."
The type of exercise can help determine how important it is to stretch. "For example, one of the more common injuries sprinters suffer from is a pulled hamstring. That activity is very dynamic so I'd suggest a dynamic warm-up, like jogging with high knees," says Dr. Millar. "A distance runner rarely has a pulled hamstring. … When you go out for a long jog you don't stretch, but you start out slowly and gradually increase the pace."
Edward Laskowski, co-director of the Mayo Clinic's Sports Medicine Center in Rochester, Minn., says you'll see track-and-field athletes at this summer's Olympics performing dynamic stretches. "You often see hurdlers slowly going over a few hurdles and kicking their legs up at the hurdle to get their muscles warmed up," he says.
Age and genetics also are a factor in stretching. "Some of us are just naturally more flexible," he says. "As we age, we start to feel more stiff and it does help to spend a bit more time easing into a jog or warming up the muscles before a game of soccer."
Instead of stretching, Dr. Millar suggests getting the heart rate up before exercising by starting out at a slower pace. Swim a few laps at a slower pace to get into the rhythm and warm up the body before swimming at full pace or bike at a very comfortable pace to gradually get the heart rate up and muscles warmed up before breaking into a sprint uphill on a bike.

Quick Inspection: '72 Plymouth DusterGilles Couture * Granby, Quebec, Canada
PowertrainEngine: A 340 block (the car originally had a 318 two-barrel) carries a 4-inch-stroke crank with Eagle rods and CP pistons that, with the Richard Poudrier-ported W2 heads, make 11:1 compression -right on the limit for pump gas. The cam is a Crower solid roller with 252 degrees of duration (at 0.050 lift) and 0.627-inch lift, which actuates the valves via Comp Cams lifters and pushrods and T&D rockers. An out-of-the-box Holley 830HP carb and TTI headers get the air in and out.Power: With 34 degrees of ignition advance (all in by 1,500 rpm), the 415ci engine makes 622 hp at 6,800 rpm and 570 lb-ft of torque at around 6,000.
Transmission: The original 904 automatic was rebuilt with good parts and carries a Dynamic 9-inch, 4,000-stall converter.
Rearend: The stock 83/4 rearend had spool and 4.10 gears at PGD, but Gilles said it's quicker with its usual 3.91 gears and a DetroitLocker. The axles are from Moser.
ChassisFrame: The underpinnings are surprisingly stock.Suspension: At the business end of the car is a set of CalTracs bars with monoleaf springs. Up front, Gilles himself fabbed up a rackand- pinion steering setup so he could use a rear-sump oil pan. The shocks are drag-specific 90/10s from Competition Engineering.
Brakes: A set of Wilwood brakes on the front complement the stock drums in back.
Wheels: The perfect street machine wheels, 15-inch Anson Sprints are on every corner.
Tires: Traction comes from 28x10.5 Mickey Thompson ET Drag slicks, while up front is a set of parts-store skinnies.
StyleBody: It's all stock. Gilles thinks the car may have been repainted, but this is how he bought it.
Paint: Again, it's stock, but repainted a few years ago after Gilles hit a deer.
Interior: Other than a six-point bar and a tachometer, the interior is granny-fresh.

Holes in Firewall-1
Spanish security researchers have discovered several vulnerabilities in the "Firewall-1" security solution by software vendor Checkpoint, and are now questioning its Common Criteria EAL4+ certification.
Pentest penetration testers discovered various bugs in the form of buffer overflows in command line tools. The testers didn't even need to deploy code analysis tools, as they reveal in their analysis.
The subject of the test was Secure Platform R60, a distribution by vendor Checkpoint based on Red Hat Linux. Although the vulnerabilities were only local, the authors of the report still can't rule out remote attacks after analysis.
Although Checkpoint was notified of the vulnerabilities several months ago, a response has not been forthcoming, nor has an update of the firewall which can be used on various systems, such as Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Solaris 8 through 10, and Windows 2000 Server.

I have to agree. As a destro lock who was hit capped and stacking approx 300-500 more spellpower than at the end of BC I was still at the bottom of the DPS table for Heroics (thats 3rd) in guild runs. It was incredibly sucky and when I dummy tested I found that I was maxxing my dps.
I changed to Afflic and dummy tested and add another 150-200 dps. But its still quite pathetic compared to sitting at the top of the table where I used to sit in BC. The only person who ever gave me a run was the guild rogue and now she is very much outdoing me.
But I also noticed that without a LOT of haste destro just doesn't allow you to have the time to get casts off. A lot of Heroics now require a lot of movement and repositioning making getting those incinerates and immolates off a lot harder.

Ole Miss and Missouri are two SEC football programs that often go head-to-head with Arkansas on the recruiting trail.
Coaches from both schools aren't sure how Bobby Petrino's firing will impact the competition with Arkansas for future recruits.
"I think it's too early to tell," Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze told the AJC. "I think Arkansas has had some tremendous years recruiting and they have great facilities. I'm not confident enough to say we have a great advantage now. Now I think it could be an advantage but certainly they could go get another great coach in there, which I'm sure they will. Then [Petrino's firing] would be over in the minds of recruits very fast … so it's kind of hard for me to say on that."
Missouri's Gary Pinkel said, "I haven't thought about how it will affect our recruiting. I think a lot of people recruit against Arkansas, not just us. I don't know a lot about the whole thing over

He has drawn praise in the pages of Barron's, which three times named him the "World's Best CEO," Time, which named him one of the "Most Influential People in the World," and Fortune, which called GE "America's Most Admired Company."
He also undertook the formidable challenge of putting GE's resources and talents to work in tackling the world's biggest environmental problems__from reducing greenhouse gases to improving energy efficiency and water conservation__through his company's visionary
"ecomagination" initiative, which has set a standard for corporate environmental responsibility.
Last year, President Obama sought his expertise for a crucial advisory board created to help bring America back from its worst economic downturn in decades. For his inspiring leadership and commitment to fostering "imagination at work," Boston College honors Jeffrey Immelt with the degree of Doctor of Business Administration, honoris causa.
John L. Harrington

Sister Mary Hart, R.G.S.
For nearly three decades, children in Boston's Roxbury neighborhood have been guided by Sister Mary Hart of the Sisters of the Good Shepherd. Tending to the needs of individuals beset by poverty, her work and evident faith have reflected the principle of her order's foundress, Saint Mary Euphrasia, who often said, "One person is of more value than a world."
She branched out of her order's traditional ministry when she asked to be assigned to parish work. First at St. Francis_St. Philip Parish and, since 2005, at St. Katharine Drexel Parish, Sister Mary has supervised after_school and summer camp programs focused on literacy, young_adult leadership and academic enrichment for children and teens from the parish and the broader Dudley Square community.
Sister Mary's ministry has received honors reserved for those who labor quietly in service to others, including the Robert L. Ruffin Award and The Philanthropic Initiative's Boston
Neighborhood Fellows Award. For filling the afternoons and summer days of children in need with love and enrichment, and embodying the Sisters of the Good Shepherd's mission to honor and respect the dignity of each person as a child of God, Boston College awards Sister Mary Hart the degree of Doctor of Social Science, honoris causa.
Joy Haywood Moore
Joy Haywood Moore is not only a champion of girls' schools, she is a shining example of the heights that can be achieved by their graduates. An alumna of Dana Hall School, an independent school for young women in nearby Wellesley, her commitment to women's education has defined her life's work. This passion has taken her halfway across the globe to South Africa where she serves as interim head at the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls, founded by Oprah Winfrey in fulfillment of a promise made to Nelson Mandela. Under Moore's skillful direction, hundreds of South African girls have been given the rare opportunity to move beyond barriers and embark on a journey that will benefit both them and their country.
A graduate of the Lynch School of Education who has directed both The Archer School for Girls in Los Angeles and her alma mater, Dana Hall, she understands the capacity of education to change lives. Having served as a trustee of the National Coalition of Girls' Schools, she puts into practice their belief that girls' schools are the most powerful, transformative learning environments for young women. For a career dedicated to guiding young women on a path of achievement, growth and leadership, Boston College proudly confers upon Joy Haywood Moore the degree of Doctor of Humane Letters, honoris causa.
His Eminence Cardinal Cormac Murphy O'Connor
As the faithful leader of the Roman Catholic Church of England and Wales, His Eminence Cardinal Cormac Murphy O'Connor, Archbishop Emeritus of Westminster, has inspired and enriched the lives of some five million Catholics.
He has guided thousands through spiritual and pastoral renewal - to strengthen and deepen their faith - as architect of the grassroots program "At Your Word, Lord." Among his devoted flock are hundreds of Facebook friends.
When our collective attention was drawn to Rome in 2005, he was among members of the College of Cardinals who elected the Pontiff, Pope Benedict XVI. During a lifetime dedicated to the Lord's work, he has expressed in words and deeds his firm belief in the vigorous life of the Church, and its crucial role in society.
He reflected on his priestly ministry at the Golden Jubilee of his Ordination at London's Westminster Cathedral, the mother Church of his Catholic community. The essence of priesthood, he said in his homily, is to be of service to others.
Boston College, which seeks to foster in its graduates an enduring commitment to faith, hope and service, hails the depth and breadth of his vocation and declares Cardinal Cormac Murphy_O'Connor Doctor of Laws, honoris causa.

|Home > Documentation > Configuring and administering > Configuring services > Configuring datasources > Import database pools from WebLogic 8.1
(Note: Console screenshots are from Geronimo 2.0. Current console varies slightly.)
This wizard offers two different alternatives for importing existing BEA WebLogic database pools:
Apart from the alternative you choose, you are still required to tell Geronimo where the database driver jars are. For this particular example, the Repository portlet is used to install the PointBase driver jar .
Here are the steps of installing the PointBase database driver jar in Geronimo:
From the Geronimo Administration Console, click the Database Pools link. From the Database Pools portlet, click Import from WebLogic 8.1. The following figure illustrates the import wizard.
For this particular example, the focus is the second alternative for importing existing BEA WebLogic database pools. A default example domain was created in the WebLogic server with all the sample applications also included by default. This domain is located in the <bea_home>\user_projects\domains\examples directory.
On the first screen of the import wizard (illustrated in the above figure), enter the following values for the Domain directory path: and the weblogic81/server/lib path:, and click Next.
Step 2, illustrated in the following figure, shows a list of recognized database pools from the WebLogic domain you specified. These database pools can be imported to Apache Geronimo.
Note that the WebLogic domain that you are trying to import the database pools from must be running if you want to successfully test the connection. For this example, click the Confirm and Deploy link for the second database pool in the list, the one corresponding to examples-dataSource-demoPool.
In the following step, select the Driver JAR: that you just created in the Geronimo repository.
Note that the database password has been recognized. Click Test Connection, and you will see a confirmation similar to the following figure. Click Deploy.
The following page goes back to the Step 2. This time it will display the remaining database pools available for import and will also show the import status of the database pool that you just imported. At this point, you can click Skip Remaining Pools to leave the import wizard.
Now you can see the database pool that you just imported listed in the database pool portlet.

This is part one of a seven part series of Animations that I'm producing for my Final Year of VCE Studio Arts.
By the time I've finished the seventh part, I'm going to wish I just rolled around on a canvas instead and called it 'Non-Objective Expressionism' or some shit.
Song used is Ave Maria by Schubert, a really beautiful piece that I've been rendered immune to through hearing it several times during editing.

Speaking to the Soul, the Episcopal Cafe blog, had a wonderful post yesterday by Maria Bolding [1], of the Order of St. Benedict. In it she recalls the wonderful experience of her childhood nightly bath, and the power of touch to remind us that God creates and re-creates us anew each day. When was the last time you slowed down and took delight in all the gifts of the daily bath or shower? The gift of water, of touch, of becoming clean, and, perhaps, the appearance of the creative muse who answers those questions you went to bed last night fretting about? Enjoy, enjoy.

Levels of CSF fluid interleukin-2, but not interleukin-1 alpha, were

dopaminergic neurotransmission and participates in autoimmunity and cell

Missing Mikaeel Kular: Residents Join Search
Mikaeel Kular's neighbours - mothers, fathers and children - join experts on the ground in the hunt for the missing toddler.
Police officers brief volunteers and local residents in Edinburgh
Mikhaeel was last seen on Wednesday night
How far can a three-year-old boy get on his own? That's the question everyone I speak to on Ferry Gait Crescent is asking.
Mikaeel Kular has been missing for more than 24 hours and his whole neighbourhood has come to a standstill.
Residents of the "normally quiet" area have joined police, some on horseback, and mountain rescue teams to search the local area.
One group of women told me they had been out since 9am on Thursday scouring a golf course, beach and high street. They were carrying torches donated by the local branch of Tesco.
"You're looking in the same places, convinced you missed something the first time," one said.
Two teenagers from a neighbouring estate said they wanted to help "to see if there was something we could do".
One said his mother had heard of a small girl nearby who had told of a "stranger tapping on her window".
Hedgerows were being scoured, the bins emptied and homes opened up to police.
No one is letting their hopes fade for the little boy, who is one of dozens of children that live in the street.
But with heavy security doors in the blocks of flats and CCTV cameras visible on every building, suspicions are being raised about whether Mikaeel could have walked out of his home on his own.
No new information about his whereabouts has emerged.
The weather in Edinburgh has been freezing - the gritters are out on the streets.
In the city centre, people said they were shocked by Mikaeel's disappearance and are praying for him.
Back on Ferry Gait Crescent, residents plan to resume their search in the hope they can end what one man described as "every parent's worst nightmare".

Gorgeous weather is making many of us in and want to trot outside and enjoy it with our horses. Fox 2 News on Wednesday featured a local horse arena business as a place for upcoming summer camps of a different nature.
For this segment, Fox 2 reporter Angie Mock was taught how to ride at Ridgefield Arena in Wildwood. They touted an equestrian camp as "something different for all ages."
Ridgefield owner Tracey Ryan said two summer camps will be held in June; two in July; and one in August. She said there are English and Western riding options, plus trail riding for those uneasy about jumping with a horse.
Ryan said the equestrian camps teach young people responsibility while they are having fun and learning a new sport.
She said there also are Ladies' Night Out events for all ages of riders.
The fee for Ridgefield's summer equestrian camp is $375 for a Tuesday through Thursday experience. Ryan said campers range from equine novices to equestrians who show in the A Circuit.
Ridgefield Arena is located at 1410 Ridge Road in Wildwood. It is a riding academy, but horse shows and clinics also are conducted there.

There is no "tablet" market. There's only the iPad market. Gizmodo published the stats yesterday to illustrate the fact. The iPad totally eclipses all other tablets in sales. Apple has made 281 times more profit from the iPad 1 alone—in just three market quarters—than all other "tablet" manufacturers have made from all their models, across all their brands, combined.

SIR: The World Health Organization defines a stroke as rapidly developing clinical signs of a focal (or global) disturbance of the cerebral function, with symptoms lasting 24 hours or longer or leading to death, with no apparent cause other than of vascular origin. A stroke represents a major public health problem, but relatively little work has been directed toward identifying and treating the common neuropsychiatric disorders occurring after stroke.1 Psychosis is a rare complication of stroke, while 2% to 7% people with epilepsy have been reported to suffer from psychosis. The prevalence of psychosis in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy and/or refractory epilepsy varies from 10% to 19%, in most studies.2 Forced normalization is often observed in psychosis of epilepsy. In 1953, Landolt3 described a group of patients with poorly controlled epilepsy who had psychotic episodes associated with the remission of their seizures and the disappearance of epileptiform activity on their EEGs. He called this phenomenon "forced normalization." Upon suppression of seizures, some patients with interictal psychosis may require modification of the antiepileptic medication which is responsible for the excessive inhibition of seizures.4,5 We herein report a case of interictal psychosis which developed after stroke with forced normalization.
A 56-year-old right-handed woman had her first seizure when she was 24 years old. Her natal, perinatal, and previous medical histories were unremarkable. There were no past or family histories of neuropsychiatric disorders. Her seizure type was of complex partial seizures evolving into generalized tonic-clonic seizures. Immediately after the first epileptic seizure, she was referred to the neuropsychiatric department of our hospital for the first time and treatment with antiepileptic drugs was started. Her epileptic seizures were refractory and occurred a few times a week after the long and adequate treatment with antiepileptic drugs (carbamazepine, 1100 mg/day; phenytoin, 325 mg/day; clobazam, 20 mg/day). An EEG demonstrated a 9 Hz basic rhythm activity with many spike and slow wave activities in the left temporal lesion while no definite MRI abnormality was observed. At 55 years of age, she awoke with headache, dizziness, and dysarthria. As these symptoms persisted, she was admitted to the neurological department of our hospital. A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan demonstrated a cortico-subcortical infarction in the left temporal and parietal region. Antiepileptic drugs were not altered after her stroke. About 4 months after her stroke, when no residual symptoms of her stroke remained, she experienced auditory hallucinations that spoke ill of her for the first time. She was very anxious and afraid of the people around her. She was readmitted to the neuropsychiatric department of our hospital and a regimen of haloperidol (4.5 mg/day) was prescribed for the treatment of her psychotic symptoms. About 6 months later, she was discharged from our hospital. Although she still experiences the auditory hallucinations that speak ill of her, they are mild enough as to not disturb her activities of daily living. On the other hand, no epileptic seizures or epileptiform activities on her EEG after her stroke have been observed for 18 months up until the present time.
The occurrence of psychotic episodes independent of the stroke in this case may be a possibility regarding the cause of this patient's symptoms. It seems unlikely because no psychotic episodes had been observed for 31 years after the onset of epileptic seizures while they appeared only 4 months after her stroke. Psychosis has been reported to develop an average of 14 years after the onset of epileptic seizures.6 Moreover, psychotic episodes after her stroke were associated with the remission of epileptic seizures and the disappearance of any epileptiform activity on the EEGs, which correspond to the clinical criteria recently proposed for the diagnosis of forced normalization.5 The occurrence of psychotic episodes due to a stroke independent of epilepsy may also be a possibility in this case. However, it seems unlikely because psychosis has been reported to be an extremely rare complication of stroke and there have been only a few reports on psychosis due to stroke, all of which suggested an association between a right hemisphere stroke and a schizophreniform disorder.6—11 The reason why forced normalization was observed after stroke in this case is unclear. In the first place, the mechanism of forced normalization is still poorly understood although the kindling phenomenon, the phenomenon of long-term potentiation, and the channel disorder paradigm have all been proposed as viable animal models for forced normalization.4 With the development of new and powerful antipsychotic drugs and other treatments with the propensity to switch off seizures, the development of psychosis associated with forced normalization is therefore expected to become a more and more frequently encountered problem. The present case may help to clarify the mechanism of forced normalization, while providing some helpful suggestions regarding the diagnosis and the treatment of the psychotic symptoms observed in a stroke.

okay, 2 questions
how do you change the visibility of a DIV in NS6 using JS and...
I need to get the variables from a POST and I can't remember the code needed.
can ne 1 please help me??
In HTML:
then, in JS:Code:

(insert content here)

This code should also work in at IE5.5 upwards on PC and IE5 upwards on Mac. Might even work in IE5 PC too. Aren't standards wonderful?Code:
var div = document.getElementById("mydiv");
div.style.visibility="hidden"; // hide it
// or
div.style.visibility="visible"; // show it
The above will just make the div invisible. It will still occupy space on the page. To stop it taking up space, add:
Re: variables from a POST, I can't help. Anyone who can help, however, will want to know what method you're using: ASP? JSP? CGI? Trained Armadillos?Code:
div.style.display="none"; //
it's not there
// or
div.style.display="block"; // yes it is!
cheers for that, just making it invisible was all I needed :)
saying it was a POST might have been a bit hasty, its either POST or GET, I can't remember... but either way, its the one where the information appears in the url after a '?' in the form 'variable1=a&variable2=b' etc so I don't need to specify what method I'm using do i??? I would only need to do that if I was using the other method.. I think? i dunno.
when writing html into a div using java script should the following work?
when reffering to a DIV called in the BODY like this:Quote:
text = 'blah de blah';
document.getElementById[theDiv].innerHTML = text;
I'm currently trying to get something like this to work and its not...Quote:

Am I doing anything obviously wrong?
That should beCode:

content

text = 'blah de blah';
document.getElementById[theDiv].innerHTML = text;
note the round brackets and quotes. Also, remember that innerHTML is non-standard and will only work in IE and Mozilla-based browsers: anything else will likely collapse in a messy heap.Code:
document.getElementById("theDiv").innerHTML = text;
Of course, last time I looked, Opera couldn't cope with getElementById() at ALL, but that's Opera's problem.
you should try to avoid referencing the object at all besides 'this'.
As it comply's with all browsers.
PHP Code:

blah

Love how it's adjustable.
Very Cool looking lamp, love the store too.

So fun.
Just saw this at IKEA.. love it!
I tried to visit the prize item pages this morning and earlier in the afternoon, but the links were all broken! This lamp is great. Does posting a comment qualify as entering the drawing?
i LOVE this lamp! WAY cool!
This would go great in the bedroom
This lamp is so gorgeous. I just visited an IKEA store in the Netherlands. What a delight to be there and see all the beautiful items they have over there. For example the matrasses are amazing. Latex matresses in all sizes. I tried to find a latex mattress here but did not succeed. Now thinking to order one over there and transport it by ship here. Perhaps someday Ikea will open a shop here. I welcome it. In the meantime I will enjoy myself with the thick Ikea catalog.

July 22--IF YOU PICKED "The Conjuring" to gross $41.5 million this past weekend and finish No. 1 at the box office, perhaps you should be running a studio.
The truth-based haunted-house horror, starring Vera Farmiga, Lili Taylor, Patrick Wilson and Ron Livingston, unseated three-week champ "Despicable Me 2," which dropped to second place with $25 million.
"The Conjuring" was among four new releases this weekend. The newest animated offering, "Turbo," opened with $21.5 million, good for third place.
But big-budget crime caper "R.I.P.D." opened with a disappointing $12.76 million. The film reportedly cost more than $130 million to make.
"R.I.P.D." joins other big-budget summer flops such as "Pacific Rim," "White House Down," "After Earth" and "The Lone Ranger."
"Despite the fact there have been some high-profile, high-budget flops, the summer to date is up 12 percent from last year," Paul Dergarabedian of Hollywood.com said. "For mid-July, to have a modestly budgeted horror film top the weekend tells you how important it is for audiences to have options."
The Adam Sandler-produced "Grown Ups 2" held onto fourth place in its second week of release, earning $20 million.
"Red 2," which stars Bruce Willis and Helen Mirren as retired CIA operatives, debuted in fifth with $18.5 million.
'Glee' update
"Glee" executive producer Ryan Murphy is planning a tribute episode to honor the series' deceased star, Cory Monteith.
In remarks to news outlets, Murphy said the tribute would address the death of Monteith's character, Finn. That show will be the season's third episode, following two episodes that had already been written.
Then the series will go on hiatus to reassess its direction, Murphy said.
Murphy said he had helped stage an intervention in his office for Monteith last March.
"He wanted to continue working and we said, 'That's not an option. No. The TV show doesn't matter, your life matters,' " he told Eonline. Monteith's rehab began soon thereafter.
Comic-Con recap
"Man of Steel" director Zack Snyder made a surprise appearance Saturday to announce he is making another Superman film and it will include Batman -- the first time the two superheroes will be united on the big screen.
He declined to reveal many details, saying the script is just being written. He then invited an actor onstage to read a passage to hint at the storyline.
"I am the man who beat you," read Harry Lennox, before an image of the Superman logo, backed by the Batman symbol, flashed on the screen.
Saturday's announcement about the film follows DC's debut last month of the Greg Pak-written Batman/Superman comic, an ongoing monthly comic illustrated by Jae Lee that was the top-selling title in June.
The book pairs the two characters together at a time in their lives when they're both young and still adapting to being superheroes.
Production on the Superman sequel is set to begin next year. The film is expected to be released in summer 2015.
--The cast of "The Hunger Games" made its Comic-Con debut, along with the trailer for "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire."
Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth and Lenny Kravitz were among the film's stars who watched the trailer for the first time Saturday with more than 6,000 fans.
Lawrence and Hutcherson also talked about their kissing scenes in the film. She said they involved "a lot of slobber."
Hutcherson said, "It will be really hot if you're into snot."
--Ian McKellan, Patrick Stewart, Halle Berry, Anna Paquin, Jennifer Lawrence, Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy, Ellen Page, Peter Dinklage, Hugh Jackman and other "X-Men" mutants thrilled fans by uniting on stage Saturday in Comic-Con's largest hall.
Director Bryan Singer also gave fans a first look at "X-Men: Days of Future Past," which is currently filming in Montreal.
McKellan said he was happy to be back in California at Comic-Con.
"I feel safe here now that you got rid of Prop. 8," he said, referring to the recently abolished law that prohibited same-sex marriage.
"I'm looking for a husband," he said. "It's great to meet you, Michael."
Fassbender blushed.

Is Height a Matter of Health Care?Posted by: Mathew Crawford in Mathematics, Science
One of my pet peeves, which I've blogged about before, is the lack of understanding of conditional probability and statistics — by people who need to understand it in order to understand an issue or problem they're engaging.
This article portrays the point.┬Ā We heard during the health care debate about how residents in the U.S. suffer shorter life spans than those in some other nations due to our health care system when there is clear evidence that this assertion is false.┬Ā But the false sciencey meme spread well among those ideologically interested in changing the health care system even as actuaries tried to correct the record (with no media support).┬Ā Even now we get articles in blogs and newspapers by people who accepted the false meme as fact, and incorporate it into their way of thinking.┬Ā The author of the article completely misses the distinction between health care and lifestyle, even though the evidence they discuss about taller people in the U.S. during past generations was due to lifestyle differences (abundant food and healthy farm/labor life) — not health care.
One day, we should hope, somebody who understands conditional probability/statistics will vet every article written about statistical subjects.┬Ā But that's not likely, so learning conditional probability and statistics is the only way to ensure that you understand what you're reading.
