As a loving parent, and alumni of Servite, I take great pride in supporting the strong faith based community and formation of young men as leaders. Servite strives for excellence in our young men, and the spirit and pride continues year after year. I am proud my children are a part of the story's and tradition of the Servite order. Credo!
I graduated from Servite several years ago and feel the education and life skills learned there still help me now as a physician. Of course, results may vary but the school does an excellent job at making sure its students have to skills to succeed at anything. I was not thrilled at the "all boys" part but it did make the environment less distracting. Kids act differently when there are no girls to impress. I credit the school as being the key factor in getting a full ride to UCSD! I will try to send my two boys there in 11 years or so if I'm in the area.
I understand if your son didnt enjoy Servite and ill be the first to say that its not for everyone. But dont penalize one of the better schools is southern california because YOUR son didnt understand or embrace being a Servite Friar. Its and amazing school and i have nothing to say but good things.
Servite is definitely not what I expected, it is much better. I am currently a transfer student and I love it. My first day of school I felt like I had been apart of a brotherhood, both the students and the teachers were especially patient with me. And the vibe here is a happy one. I am already part of 3 clubs, 2 sports and think of joining more. The teachers here know what they're doing and the staff is the friendliest I've seen. Everything is built aroound leadership and not what the 2 below me said about the sports. Yes, we have a few scholarship athletes for football. But also baseball, lacrosse, soccer,basketball, and definitely wrestling. But we also have many more students receiving scholarships to many schools including Ivy League schools. For the most part, send your son here regardless his specialty and he will have an unforgettable experience and education. (Did I mention that our theater and choir are among the best in the country. And that 99% of Servite grads go on to college, 40 to Ivy League schools.)
Servite on paper has a great reputation. However having a son recently graduate Servite has grade inflation compared to public schols. Servite will get you ready for the Cal State system no problem.They do a great selling job on the school all centered around their football program no other sport in school matters. If you yuor son is going to play football he will have a great time at the school if not it is not worth the money invested to attend.
Servite High School is a wonderful College Prep-school. It is the foundation for life in a boy, and will prepare young men for their future.
Servite is an excellent school with high classroom standards and high ethical standards. The Men of Servite learn more than classroom activities. Keep in mind that Servite is a College Prep School. The faculty of Servite strongly encourages athletics and other after school activities. Not only does Servite have a tradition of strong athletics but the school always has highly ranked Debate Teams, a great theatre program, unlimited clubs and a world class Formation Program that teaches the boys leadership via faith. There is always an activity going on at Servite and something for all boys. I would strongly suggest Servite to any parent that is serious about a quality education for his/her son. Lastly, Servite is a strong part of the community. The students run an organization called Mary's Kitchen that serves the homeless each week. This is run by the students with oversight by the faculty. Credo!
Our son graduated from Servite in June and will be attending UCLA in the honors program starting this month. Thanks to this excellent education, our son had his choice of several top schools, many who gave him merit based scholarships. Servite is an amazing environment for a boy to grow into a fine young man. Their leadership and formation programs are without equal. Our son matured intellectually and emotionally with the dedicated guidance of the teachers, administration and staff. They know and care about every young man on campus. We went in hoping he would get a great education. He came out with not only that, but a true understanding of what it takes to be a leader. On top of that, he has friends for life. It is a brotherhood. Worried about the tuition? It will be the best money you ever spent.
I have two sons at Servite, one about to graduate and who has been accepted into USC (in addition to several others he applied to.) I have nothing but great things to say about Servite - the best decision we ever made. The 'all boy' thing had me wary at first, but it means less distraction during the day, and my sons have no shortage of dates and girlfriends. I'd highly recommend parents consider Servite - well worth the investment in your child's future.
My son had only two AP classes and several honors classes at Servite and I was very pleased with what he learned and the rigor of the courses. He was admitted to many very reputable schools and is thriving at UCSB. AP classes are not magic. The schools have told me repeatedly that they look at how rigorous the courses taken are in relation to what is offered. Our experience at many colleges, public and private confirms this. His experience at school to date has led him to believe he is very well prepared. It might be interesting to know that he had only a 3.4 at Servite, and yet he is holding his own at UCSB which has a much higher average gpa among 08-09 freshman. I think this speaks to the quality of Servite's education.
Every bad review ends with the same sentence about carefully checking out other schools...makes me think it's the same person! I have two sons at Servite and we have had a family member there nearly every year since 1975. Dedication, Desire, Discipline, Determination. Teachers come and go as does administration, but the goals and ideals of raising a Faith-Filled Leader have never faltered. As so many stated, a smart kid will be smart no matter where they go. But a diamond in the rough can be polished and perfected by the 4 D's creating a true Man of Servite. Whoever thinks a campus of 800 boys does not need a Dean of Discipline is sadly mistaken. The Dean is The Man! I expect discipline to be administered, it's what I'm paying for! If you seek to return a respectful, intelligent, faith-filled leader to society, Servite is your choice! CREDO!
I sent two sons through Servite and found it to be a great school. There is an emphasis on leadership and character develoment, as well as a nice balance of academics and athletics. The current administration is taking Servite to new heights. It is money well spent.
Notice it's only older alumni who have positive things to say here about the academics at Servite. Alumni are very loyal. Hopefully they can spur change because Servite is not up to par academically compared to El Dorado, Brea Olinda,Troy, Sunny HIlls, Esperanza. Servite teaches to, and will get you admitted to the Cal State system..that's it
Huge changes at Servite in the last few years as a new administration of alumni brings the school to new levels of greatness. Servite got me a scholarship to a top national university and prepared me for graduate success at another top national university. More important than the academic prep, it prepared me spiritually and for the challenges of life. Brotherhood is awesome. Academics very challenging. Formation program building great leaders. Kids encouraged to play multiple sports and activities. Watched an award-winning Servite musical where the lead was also the Trinity League athlete of the year--no other place encourages that kind of participation across disciplines. Admissions has become quite challenging. Don't consider Servite unless you want your son to become a man and a leader, and want him challenged at the highest levels in whatever he does.
My son graduated from Servite and although his academic performance was less than admirable, he gained a tremendous amount from the experience. Education is vital, but there is so much more to being a success. Those virtues are rarely measured and their implementation is more a product of the enviornment than the instruction. I have seen poor ethics, even in nearby Catholic schools in O.C. that stand in contrast to the tolerance taught at Servite. I attended a nearby Catholic High School, and I admired Servite from a young age. I can clearly see the impact Servite has had on my son. He is a better person because of his experience there. If that is not your priority for your son's life, then you may be disappointed.
I attended Servite and was an above-average student. Until I got to college, I did not realize how well I was prepared. With a little effort, it was easy to excel at USC in an extremely demanding major. While some may say that doing well at USC it not an elite accomplishment, but I did subsequently attend the Harvard Business School after scoring in the overall top 2% (top 0.1% in math) on the GMAT. I didn't take a GMAT review course, and I assign my GMAT success to my studying (which was considerably less than many others) and the education I received at Servite. I admit that some teachers have a mediocre ability to teach, but the education as a whole is top notch. From an ROI perspective, Servite has yielded a great return.
Coming from a background of public education, I was apprehensive about entering Servite. All I knew of Servite was that it was an all-boys achool, Catholic and demanding. Upon graduation and the last twelve years or so of reflection, I have come to the conclusion Servite helped guide me to become the man I am today. An intense focus on education, strong moral and ethical principals and the dedication to self-growth is the foundation of Servite's principles. Servite may not be for everyone, but for those who embrace its' teachings, a life of accomplishment, self-reward and connecting with others awaits.
I graduated from Servite and I can say Servite made me the man I am today. I was an average student but Servite made college seem easy. Managing 800 young men is not easy and it takes discipline. Servite is in the business of making boys into men. The faculty and staff care about your son, they are definitely not working there for the money. I have yet to meet a man who was sorry he graduated from Servite.
We just finished our son's first year at Servite. He is in the honors program. Overall the experience has been wonderful. There was a problem with one teacher, but the administration quickly addressed it. They are working with the teacher to raise standards, but the teacher has been removed from the honors program until they improve. Next year looks even better as the administration is working to have both the formation & computer programs go into full swing. It does appear some teachers were let go for underperformance. This raises our confidence.
I sent my son to Servite this year due to the great success stories I have heard about this school. I was dissatisfied with the quality of the teachers and administration. This school is mediocre. The successful students were smart to begin with and the school had nothing due to with it. Changes are being made for next year which will I will not let my son be a part of. I have already pulled him out and enrolled him in Mater Dei High School in Santa Ana. Please make sure that you look into all the others schools before choosing this one.

I was inspired to make this ReMix after listening to somebody else's arrangement of the same theme, the Castle from Super Mario World. Like many others I've been a huge fan of the series' music for some time, but that particular theme is one of the most dark and exciting songs in any of the games, in my opinion. Even moreso than Bowser in Super Mario 64.
Anyway, the mix uses everything but the kitchen sink... huge custom synths, guitars, symphonic orchestra, church organ, you name it. I really wanted to bring out that ominous feel of the Castle theme and then amplify it further. Hope you enjoy it!

"I think it's at a critical juncture right now. With all the commentary that's been going on about Facebook and the loss of organic reach, obviously, how the paid component to social evolves is critical. Outside of Ford and looking at the industry overall, it saddens me how social has been co-opted by marketing to become just another mass advertising/marketing channel. I think the promise of social is about relationship development, and I have always said that. All the talks I've given about Ford's progress has concentrated on attention and trust. While advertising can get you the attention by interrupting people, it's more important to build relationships with customers and other people you want to reach. And I think communications and marketing and customer service have to band together around social. Look at what came out of The New York Times last week. The entire Facebook presence of the Times has been abdicated to the business side, and the journalists don't have any say there. It's really important for these groups to come together and understand how they can actually play off of each other. I think that's where the future of social lies."

What Richard Seymour did to Ben Roetlisberger on Sunday was a punk move. Plain and Simple. There is no room in the game for such selfish acts and there is no excuse for a team leader to behave as such.
I'm not calling Seymour a punk. Just saying what he did was a punk move. Until Sunday he was making waves for his All-Pro play this season. Now, this infamous moment of madness will be the staring point for any conversation revolving around this year.
As a veteran leader of the defense, Seymour has an obligation to his teammates. That obligation states that at no point will he put himself above the team. Until Sunday Seymour had been a team player. Could you imagine Nnamdi Asomugha doing something like this? He never would. Not that Nnamdi's soft, he just knows that he's more valuable to his team on the field than he is watching from the locker room.
I could care less what Big Ben said to Seymour. Even if he uttered the most vile and hateful remark ever said that is no excuse for going LeGarrette Blount in the middle of an NFL contest. Be a man; suck it up and then the next chance you get to send a message to Roethlisberger you do so emphatically within the rules of the game. Hey, worst case scenario is you get a 15-yard roughing penalty. Much better than being ejected, fined and possibly suspended.
Not advocating violent retaliation with intention to hurt. Just supporting Seymour's right to carry a grudge and then get vengeance by simply doing what he's paid to do. You see, cleaning Big Ben's clock with a punch is illegal under any circumstances. But knocking him silly while the Steelers attempt one of their double-reverse/flea-flicker trick plays is perfectly legal.
No, Richard Seymour is not a punk. But he sure did pull a selfish punk move.

Learn everything the UK's leading Tax practices can teach you. Joining our Tax practice will provide you with the opportunity to work within a team covering an arena which is increasingly growing ever more complex.
Tax is all about helping our clients to understand what tax they need to pay and how they can manage this in the most effective and ethical way.
Every time you buy a packet of crisps, go to the cinema, top up your phone credit or get paid for your part-time job, some of your money gets paid to the government. Well, imagine how many different kinds of tax you'd have to think about if you were employing staff, making millions of pounds in profits or relocating to another country.
Many of these things are everyday business for our clients, so it's essential that they understand what their tax obligations are and how to manage these effectively. These days tax is headline news, making it more important than ever that our clients can be confident that they're working within the scope of legislation and show that they're doing the right thing, while also managing tax effectively for their business and their staff.
Working in tax at PwC puts you at the forefront of new developments and legislation, helping our clients – from international businesses to wealthy individuals – plan for the future and manage their tax affairs in the right way.
What you'd do
You can specialise in:
You'll join a team of experts, and your role will be to support these busy client teams who provide clients with advice and guidance about issues surrounding paying and minimising their tax bills. Your responsibilities will include a wide range of tasks which will vary depending upon the area of Tax you join.
You'll be involved in a wide variety of work from creating and tailoring client documents, to establishing and developing relationships with HM Revenue and Customs or the Inland Revenue. Whichever team you join, you can expect to get involved in technical research, drafting client correspondence and attending meetings with more senior members of the team.
Depending on the team you join, you could find yourself providing Tax advice on; mergers & acquisitions, corporation tax, transfer pricing, treasury & finance, international structuring, indirect tax, tax compliance, workforce structuring, reward and compensation frameworks, expatriate tax and international mobility. Clients include global players, FTSE 100 companies and Middle Market organisations.
How you'll develop
As part of the Higher Apprenticeship programme you'll undertake a structured, self directed learning programme, gaining knowledge of the industry and market, technical skills, self development & awareness, leadership skills and commercial awareness.
You'll enjoy plenty of practical, on-the-job training while studying for a professional qualification with the Association of Tax Technicians (ATT). This takes two years and will enable you to secure relevant professional awards as a core part of your Higher Apprenticeship. We'll give you study leave to go to college plus plenty of support, but you'll need to study in your own time too. The hard work will be worth it though when you pick up your qualification. And the great thing is, by the time you complete your exams, you'll have lots of valuable experience to build on.
At the same time, you'll study for a nationally recognised qualification and secure a Diploma in Tax Practice Level 4 to recognise your on the job learning. Whichever area you work in, you'll enjoy plenty of interaction with clients – from multinationals to ambitious start-ups across a wide range of industry sectors – in meetings and over the phone. You'll get a solid grounding in your tax specialism plus regular training and updates to keep you up to speed with the latest legislation and boost your development. Gradually you'll take on your own portfolio of clients as you progress.
What you'll need
A minimum of 240 UCAS tariff points from up to three A Levels (excluding General Studies) or equivalent qualifications. The exams must have been sat in the same academic year and we do not consider re-sits.Please note that if you have a degree, you may find our graduate opportunities more appropriate. Having a degree does not lead to faster progression through this programme.

A new approach for industrial collaboration
LEC is currently working with resident company Stopford Energy & Environment Ltd to enhance agricultural sustainability.
More specifically, the project aims to enhance the soil conditioning properties of an industrial waste product - biomass ash - through inoculation with naturally occurring soil bacteria. The project's outcomes will be determined by measuring the yield of plants exposed to the enhanced-ash product.
The BBSRC industry interchange programme supports the flow of researchers, in either direction, between the science base and industry. The scheme aims to support short-term exchanges that provide strategic advantage to the UK science base and industry arising from mutual access to facilities, expertise/knowledge and an increased understanding of scientific issues of common concern.
BBSRC interchange awards are typically up to £50,000 and may be full time / part time or take the form of 'block' exhcanges.
LEC has won an interchange award which sees Dr Sean Hayward from Stopford seconded into the department for 12 months. Sean has a research background in Environmental and Atomspheric Sciences from Lancaster University plus recent experience in the renewable energy sector. He will be working with Dr Ian Dodd from LEC who has considerable experience in rhizosphere engineering.
Sean said; "LEC and Stopford aim to bring together their own existing research and IP to develop a commercially exploitable product. We're hoping that two ideas that already work in isolation will come together to form something of significantly greater value than the sum of its parts".
The interchange begins in June 2011 and lasts for 12 months. For information about other opportunities please contact Chris Holroyd via email@example.com or 01524 510 205.

Climbing behind the wheel of a Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren is a rare treat, even for the spoiled, often jaded automotive journalist. Seat time in a Ferrari 612 Scaglietti the same day just doesn't happen. oeber grand tourers of this nature are more commonly driven from the seat of a sofa, but not on this day. The controls here are real and so is the dire consequence of missing a turn at mach speed. It would not be pretty, and simply hitting restart is not an option. But that wasn't going to stop me from driving the pants of off either one. With a shared price of over $750,000 and roughly 1,150 combined horsepower, each offers a thrill ride quite unlike any video game, F1 paddles or not.
Enter the world of Diko Sulahian, President of Wholesale Tire and Wheel, the parent company of GFG Forged Modular Wheels. Sulahian's wheel portfolio also includes Giovanna, Gianelle Designs, G Racing and Double G. A man known for his passion for fine European automobiles, Sulahian has only to make one tough decision each morning: which car to drive to work? To make it even harder, the SLR and 612 are but only two of his latest acquisitions. Although he prefers the practicality of the 612 for, dare I say, regular transportation, often including shuttling his two daughters Giovanna and Gianelle to school, he motors around in the half-million-dollar McLaren-built SLR just the same.
Both cars could fall into the grand touring category for their long-range, high-speed capabilities while carrying passengers (and luggage) in great style and comfort. This is especially true with the four-passenger 612. It could also be argued that the limited production SLR really isn't a GT in the true sense of the term, but rather a unique and purposeful built racecar. Perhaps, it deserves a moniker all its own? I would say Grand Sport Tourer, but Mercedes has other plans for that name.
Each car is fitted with a set of the latest offerings from GFG wheels. The SLR features a black-faced Beverly Hills Edition, a forged aluminum three-piece modular measuring 9x20 and 11x20 front and rear. The multi-spoke wheels are mated to a set of Continental SportContact 2 tires running 255/30-20 and 305/25-20, respectively. The 612, on the other hand, jumped to an even larger 22-inch wheel using the company's Spiello-6 model. Also modular with black centers, the 9x22 and 10.5x22 wheels are coupled with Pirelli P-Zeros with 245/30-22 fronts 295/25-22 rears.
After a gracious offer to test drive each of the cars, I met up with Sulahian (also known affectionately as "D") at the company's corporate office in Santa Fe Springs, Calif. On my arrival, the two silver gladiators sat parked just inside the company's gated complex like guarded crown jewels.
Within minutes, D tossed me the keys to the 612 and we were off. Seemed someone forgot to fill up the SLR, so our first stop was a gas station. You can't imagine the attention we attracted driving these two supercars through the neighboring community of Whittier, looking for a station with higher-grade fuel than offered at the local thrifty mart. Once stopped, green alien smoke may as well have seeped from the cabin as the SLR's gullwing door swung open. "Where you from?" asked a local peering from the opposite side of the pump. Similar comments and stares from wide-eyed passers-by continued throughout our drive, which eventually led us to a long and winding canyon road. Finally clear of city traffic, we were able to become better acquainted with the cars and more freely sample their awesome power and performance. The SLR was next up for me.
Flipping up a small flap on the top of the shifter, I pushed a button and the AMG-tuned, supercharged V8 roared to life. Hands firmly at three and nine, I buried the throttle, leaving a cloud of smoke and two parallel stripes of smoldering rubber. Eating asphalt is perhaps what the carbon- fiber-bodied SLR does best, and in copious amounts. Its power is immediate and pulls with intense force. With an astonishing 617 bhp at 6500 rpm and 575 lb-ft of torque from 3250-5000, the SLR is capable of zero-to-60 performance in a mind-numbing 3.8 seconds. Provided you have a long enough straight stretch of pavement (we didn't), Mercedes claims a run through its five-speed automatic trans with TouchShift will propel the car to an incredible top speed of 207mph. That places it in an elite class of supercars reserved for the likes of the Carrera GT and Enzo.
At these speeds, it's nice to know you can stop in an equally impressive manner. In addition to its massive carbon-ceramic discs and giant eight-piston front calipers (four-piston in the rear), the rear wing doubles as an air brake, rotating to 65 degrees during hard deceleration. Braking at the pedal did require a little finesse, but stopping power is beyond compare.
While the SLR would feel more at home on the open autobahn and under high-load track cornering, it traversed the canyon roads with great authority and remained extremely stable, thanks in part to an all-independent double wishbone suspension, long wheelbase and wide track. It also features a front-mid engine layout, which places the engine aft of the front axle and creating what is considered an ideal 50/50 weight balance. Moreover, the F1-inspired, carbon-fiber, flat-bottom tub, complete with inlet ducts and a rear diffuser, creates pavement-sucking downforce. Its new tire and wheel package also proved extremely effective, providing ample traction with nearly a foot of contact patch at each rear corner.
Inside, the two-seater is quite comfortable with luxury and sport-trimmed features abound. Unlike the stripped-down Enzo, the SLR comes fully loaded with all the creature comforts imaginable.
In addition to passive and active safety features, I'm told SLR and 612 also feature awesome upscale audio systems. I wouldn't know. The thought of disturbing their precision tuned exhaust notes never once came to mind.
As comfortable as the SLR is, the 612 offers substantially more in every respect. As stated, this is a true GT. Aside from its slippery design, my first thought was how unlike a traditional mid-engine Ferrari it is. Not only is the engine in the wrong place, there's room for four normal sized adults. Measuring 193 inches long by 77 wide, it's also the largest Ferrari to date, comparable in size to a midrange SUV. But make no mistake, the 612 is still very much a died-in-the-wool Ferrari. Its blistering 4.1-second zero-to-60-mph performance will affirm that. Like the SLR, it also has extremely long legs and is said to hit a top speed of 199mph. Though intimidating in both power and size, the 533 bhp 612 is actually extremely well mannered and is quite forgiving too. In other words, it will make up for a lack of good judgment or driver incompetence and make you look like a pro. This is a good thing, considering the car's ultra-high-revving V12 bark and six-speed F1 transmission will make you believe you can outrun Schumacher himself. Trust me, it has this effect on everyone.
Similar to the SLR, the 612's monster 5.7-liter engine is placed behind the front axle, providing a 46/54 front-to-rear weight ratio. Additionally, and as with the F430, the 612 uses an aluminum space frame construction, reducing curb weight and increasing torsional rigidity in the process. It is 54% stiffer in torsion than its forebearer, the 456, which amounts to better overall handling and a more positive feel at the wheel. Given its overall dimensions and larger rolling stock, which I might add tucked beautifully under the 612's muscular fenders despite their size, I couldn't imagine the car handling any better.
Unlike the gear change chatter in the 360 Modena, gear swaps in the 612 are smooth and quiet. Delivery is faster too, executing shifts in just two-tenths of a second. It's rapid fire paddle shifting at its finest. Stopping power is equally impressive with giant 13.6- and 13.0-inch rotors front and rear mated to like-sized binders. Pedal feel also seems much more familiar with no sudden surprises.
At the end of my brief encounter with two of the world's most admired automobiles, I concluded that both offer power, prestige and practicality unlike any other exotic available. Though I spent the better part of the day driving by the seat of my pants, the fun and excitement ended far too soon.
Ruined for life, I may never play the video game again.

New Python analysis book
October 30th, 2012 at 9:52 pm by Dr. Drang
Through some screwup at O'Reilly, I'm on a list of people who get offered free review copies of their new data analysis books. I can't remember the last time I took them up on an offer—I'm not a "big data" kind of guy, and few of their books in that area are in my wheelhouse—but last week I jumped at the chance to get Python for Data Analysis by Wes McKinney.
McKinney is the developer of pandas, a Python library that's intended to work efficiently with data sets, structures that are more heterogenous than NumPy's arrays but faster than Python's standard lists and dictionaries. Its fundamental object is the DataFrame, a concept (and name) it stole from R.
When I first heard of pandas, I thought "thanks, but no thanks." I'm already trying to juggle NumPy, SciPy, and matplotlib, I don't need another library to learn. But as I read more about it, I began to warm to the idea. I used R a little several years ago, and while I hated its syntax, I loved the flexibility of its data frames. If pandas can bring that flexibility to a language whose syntax I like, it's worth the investment.
My copy of Python for Data Analysis arrived today, and I hope to have a decent review posted here in the next couple of weeks. Although pandas figures prominently in the book, as you would expect, there's a lot of coverage of NumPy, SciPy, and matplotlib. A quick skim gave me hope that it may provide the decent matplotlib introduction that matplotlib's own website lacks. There's even the possibility that it'll persuade me to use IPython.
Let me finish this post with a slight detour. I'm having a hard time deciding how to present libraries, commands, functions, directory paths, menus, etc. typographically. Shell commands and programming functions seem like a natural for
a monospaced font, but I'm not so sure about the others. In this post, I used italics for pandas because that's how it's presented on its own website. But for other libraries, I've used a mixture of monospaced and regular fonts, depending on the name of the library and whether I thought the name was obviously being used as a proper noun. Capitalization helps, so I've always written Beautiful Soup rather than
Beautiful Soup, but
math rather than math. And frankly, I'm sick of matplotlib's twee refusal to capitalize itself, even when it's at the beginning of a sentence.
Is there a good style guide for these sorts of things? I once had that Yahoo! style guide checked out from the library, but I don't remember if it covered this.

did you know that the yahoo style guide was avail online?
(i do acknowledge that site navigation is poor)
Arjan Boerma says:
Some (older) physics textbooks set the names of computer programs in smallcaps, which reads like someone is shouting very quietly. Rather disconcerting. I think an elegant solution is the one used in the statistics literature: use a sans serif font for
Rand the names of
Rpackages to set them apart from serif regular text.
Dr. Drang says:
Thanks for the Yahoo! link, cceddie. I had no idea it was online.
Sans serif is a good idea, Arjan, but it doesn't fit in well with a Markdown workflow. Unlike italics, bold, and monospace, there's no quick shorthand for sans serif.

What Shall I Wear to the Prom? Spiritual Fashion Principles
Clothing is on my mind. Not because I'm a superficial person, but because fabric art has been featured in the last five weekly Torah readings. Uniquely dyed wools – sky-blue, royal purple, and earthworm red – house God's presence in the mishkan (sanctuary). Fine designers bring to life the High Priest's sophisticated "layered look," complete with jeweled accessories. All priests must wear linen underwear, lest they die.
Clothing worn during holy service must be chosen consciously: that is the principle. Why? Torah itself does not explain, but interpreters do. Spiritual facilitators should physically feel God's being. Priests need physical protection from God's powerful presence. Leaders should be adorned with articles made in the community. Priests don a persona not their own as they step into a role. Attractive visuals enhance religious ritual.
When I, a female congregational rabbi, dress for holy service, I keep these ideas in mind.
Spiritual facilitators should physically feel God's being. Hat, yes. Donning a hat is part of my daily spiritual practice. I synchronize my action with the traditional morning blessing, "oter Yisrael b''ifarah": Thank you God; you crown your people with splendor. My hat reminds me that I intend to remain a "God-person," i.e., spiritually aware, all day. And that "splendor," i.e. health and inspiration, are special gifts. If I receive them today, I will put them to good use.
Priests need physical protection from God's powerful presence. Modesty, yes. No cleavage. No short skirts. No bare shoulders. As a clergy person, I accompany people through sensitive transitions, tinged with God's luminous or terrible presence. My companionship can evoke powerful memories, emotions, reflections. Sometimes it feels as though God arises and envelops our interaction; those times, though beautiful, are exhausting. Juggling complicated associations with romance or sex would be even more exhausting. So I try, in behavior and dress, not to evoke them.
Leaders should be adorned by articles made by members of the community. Talit, yes. I wear a beautiful one made by a woman artist who attends our synagogue. Following a popular traditional design, my talit has stripes and a special collar with Hebrew words. But the stripes are embroidered flowers and the collar is decorated with coloured beads. The inspirational Hebrew words connect priestly service with women's work: v'chibes begadav hacohen ("the priest shall launder his clothing," Numbers 19:7).
Priests don a persona not their own as they step into a religious role. Yes, and no. I cannot fully adopt an alien persona. So, tefillin, no. I do not regularly wear tefillin on weekday mornings, though I know from experience how powerful the practice can be. Honestly, it's a bit of a personal protest for me. Some people insist that in order to be a rabbi, a woman must fulfill a man's traditional time-bound mitzvot, including laying tefillin. This makes no sense to me; it suggests that, to be authentic, I have to behave like a man. Why can't I just be scrupulous about fulfilling the traditional women's mitzvot?
Attractive visuals enhance religious ritual. "How you dress is a reflection of your personal brand," said Troy Alexander in The New York Times. Yes, personal style. Mine is feminine, west coast, eclectic, artsy, purple, comfortable, weather-adjusted, and carefully selected for my size and shape. Each day, I consciously assemble disparate elements into a coordinated outfit. Life is ambiguous and filled with unexpected surprises. Dressing myself with creative order helps ground me as I start the day. Reliable yet flexible structure is a gift I bring to religious ritual.
Beginning female clergy worry when congregants judge their clothing. Over the years, however, I have adopted a different approach. Congregants can talk about my clothing all they want; I do not take it to heart. They also talk about my sermons, my classes, my children, and how many cats I'm rescuing this week. They talk because they are interested in the synagogue and its people. I trust them not to cross the line into lashon hara (destructive gossip); if a genuine issue arises, I expect them to speak directly with me. We might even end up talking Torah!

Ask Not What Your Judaism Can Do For You
This past week in synagogues throughout the world we rolled the Torah scroll forward and began reading from the Book of Leviticus. Each week during Shabbat services congregations all over will be reading the account of the sacrificial system that encompassed the ritual life of the Jewish people throughout their wanderings in the desert with the Tabernacle, and later with the construction of both the first and second Temples. These readings can feel foreign and removed from the lives we lead, as people disconnected from a religion that revolves around sacrifices, whether animal or grain based. What can there possibly be to learn from these sections of Torah?
Maimonides in his chief work of philosophy, The Guide to the Perplexed, suggests that the sacrificial system instituted in the Torah was a pedagogical tool meant to transform us and to change us in radical ways. What precisely is the educational aim of the sacrifices?
Rabbi David Tzvi Hoffmann, the 19th century rabbi of Berlin, in his introduction to the Book of Leviticus, connects the sacrificial system recorded in Leviticus to that near sacrifice of Isaac at the hands of his father Abraham in the Book of Genesis. That moment, bracketing the psychological and emotional dilemmas it presents, demonstrated in an extreme fashion the notion of self-sacrifice, of giving up something precious for a more lofty purpose. It involved taking a "leap of faith," as the philosopher Soren Kierkagaard understood the near sacrifice of Isaac to be, that giving of yourself, sacrificing a part of what is important to you for someone or something else, will not only benefit the recipient but will benefit you as well. Thus, we can see the Torah's sacrificial system as being the institutionalized mechanism by which the Jewish people live that value on a daily basis.
This very much is reminiscent of the famous line by President John F. Kennedy: "And so my fellow Americans: Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country." Kennedy was leading the country towards understanding that when we all invest into the project of building America, not only will America as a whole become stronger and greater, but each citizen, each person who puts of themselves into the project, will also reap the reward. Likewise, the impact and meaning we want and need from Judaism in our lives will only be realized and only be possible if we take the time and the energy to give of ourselves into it. We will receive according to what we put in and we will benefit and all those similarly invested will benefit from our efforts as well.
As we progress through Leviticus, let us ask ourselves: What am I ready to give of myself into the Jewish project so that it becomes richer, deeper, more profound and meaningful and will come to enrich, deepen and add meaning to my life as well?

Beware of Unauthorized Hotel Solicitations/Scams
It has come to our attention that a housing service, Exhibition Housing Services (EHS), may try to contact NPMA exhibitors to solicit hotel reservations for the 2014 NES. They may tell you they are the 'official' housing service for the NES – but they are not. EHS does not represent NPMA, nor has NPMA authorized them to use our name or trademark on information they send or communicate. Please be advised that all housing for the NES is being handled exclusively through NPMA and directly with the Anaheim Marriott Hotel. No other company has access to the discounted room blocks at NPMA's official hotel.

We encourage you to make all hotel reservations for NES directly through the Anaheim Marriott Hotel online reservation system using the link above or by calling the hotel at 877-622-3056.
We urge exhibitors and attendees to extreme caution before agreeing to anything with EHS. They offer a pre-paid hotel reservation service, and additional booking fees may be added to the hotel rate. They also operate very stringent cancellation policies. NPMA cannot guarantee that the Anaheim Marriott Hotel will even honor the reservations. It is solely your decision whether or not to purchase services from non-official providers, but we encourage you to treat solicitations from these providers with appropriate caution. If you have made reservations or given any of your information to a non-official provider, you have done so at your own risk. NPMA will not be responsible for any actions or omissions from sources outside of NPMA.

Good Monday all.

Jonathan Ames (HBO's Bored to Death), Simon Van Booy (Everything Beautiful Began After), Sarah McNally (of McNally Jackson Books) and Zack Zook (of Book Court) will discuss with lit agent Eric Simonoff.

NEW YORK — The last remaining national bookstore chain is being taken off the shelf and dusted off for sale.
Barnes & Noble's founder Leonard Riggio disclosed in a regulatory filing Monday that he wants to acquire the company's stores and website, but not the business that makes the Nook e-reader or the company's college bookstores. No price was disclosed.

June 15 (Bloomberg) -- Don Brownstein, whose mortgage hedge fund was the top performer last year, said that most homeowners won't refinance even though rates are at record lows.
"The refinancing is apt to be subdued," Brownstein, head of Stamford, Connecticut-based Structured Portfolio Management LLC, said today in an interview with Erik Schatzker on Bloomberg Television. Mortgage rates for a 30-year loan are now at 4.5 percent compared with 6.3 percent three years ago, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Fewer people will refinance, he said, because homeowners' credit ratings have declined along with housing prices. Lenders are also charging higher fees.
Brownstein's main fund, Structured Servicing Holdings LP, returned 50 percent in the first 10 months of 2010, putting him at the top of Bloomberg Markets' list of the 100 best-performing funds managing $1 billion or more.
Brownstein, 67, a former philosophy professor, said that to boost economic growth, the government needs to make banks lend more money.
"There was an opportunity missed back in 2008 and 2009," he said, when the government could have insisted that the money they handed out to banks be used to make loans.
"Had the pressure been put on them, perhaps we would have gotten more bang for the buck," he added.

The Deep Things Of God: Understanding the Trinity
- Monday, September 20, 2010
Because Michael Polanyi (1891-1976) wrote extensively about epistemological moves of this type, his analysis has been recognized as a help in coming to terms with the doctrine of the Trinity. Polanyi began his scholarly career as a research chemist, but over the course of his long career he turned his interests gradually to the philosophy of science and from there to epistemology. His work is part of a larger mid-century trend toward the demotion of science from its role as absolute arbiter of all truth claims. Polanyi's work fits, for instance, somewhere between Thomas Kuhn's "historicist turn" in the philosophy of science,33 and Stephen Toulmin's critique of the abstraction introduced into theories of knowledge by the Enlightenment.34
Polanyi's most famous work is 1958's magisterial Personal Knowledge: Toward a Post-Critical Philosophy, which was primarily devoted to exposing the fiduciary and participatory character of all knowledge, not least scientific knowledge. "I start by rejecting the ideal of scientific detachment," he begins, but moves on to confess frankly: "I want to establish an alternative ideal of knowledge, quite generally."35
This research project set him on a trail which resulted in him turning his attention to epistemology proper, and to describe knowing as a skill comparable to focusing one's eyes on a particular object in a complex field of visual stimuli:
I regard knowing as an active comprehension of things known, an action that requires skill. Skillful knowing and doing is performed by subordinating a set of particulars, as clues or tools, to the shaping of a skilful achievement, whether practical of theoretical. We may then be said to become "subsidiary aware" of these particulars within our "focal awareness" of the coherent entity that we achieve.
This skill cannot be gained by lone practitioners determining for themselves what they should focus their attention on. Knowing what data to ignore and what data should be sought out as meaningful evidence presupposes an established framework within which knowledge is assembled: "We must now recognize belief once more as the source of all knowledge. Tacit assent and intellectual passions, the sharing of an idiom and of a cultural heritage, affiliation to a like minded community: such are the impulses which shape our vision of the nature of things on which we rely for our mastery of things. No intelligence, however critical or original, can operate outside such a fiduciary framework."Polanyi developed these ideas about knowledge most elaborately in his book The Tacit Dimension (1966).
In reflecting on the process of scientific discovery, Polanyi became aware of the crucial importance of elements normally disregarded as imponderable factors and left unexamined in the background of standard accounts of how scientific knowledge comes about. There is real creativity involved when research scientists engage in their characteristic tasks of following hunches, discerning meaningful patterns, and framing the right experimental situations. Beginning from this insight into the process of theory formation, Polanyi explored gestalt psychology, the mechanics of visual perception, and the experiential training process by which young doctors learn to recognize meaningful patterns of symptoms and pronounce with some confidence a diagnosis on the basis of evidence which to the uninitiated is a mere haze of insignificant, incoherent observations. These skills and insights cannot be accounted for by merely heaping up greater quantities of clear and distinct ideas or by honing propositions to greater precision. They require the knowing agent to acquire a framework of understanding and a practiced skill of forming judgments. These skills are generally inculcated by a community committed to maintaining a convivial relationship centered on values agreed upon and presupposed by all who participate. This enveloping culture forms a precognitive, nonthematic awareness of where to direct one's attention and what bits of information are worth considering explicitly. Lest this seem like a preparation for sheer subjectivity, it should be noted that Polanyi was a firm believer in the value of objective knowledge, and he repeatedly took pains to show how personal beliefs are to be held honestly, with "universal intent" as beliefs about how things really are.

I understand that for some "Reason" Allan has since departed. The office move may still have gone ahead, despite the main thrust of the expansion being to accommodate Allan's largesse. In 2008 EMW were planning to open offices in Crawley, Reading and Bristol - I can find no reference to these offices on their web-site even though "Directions Matter". Maybe the new offices are so lofty that they can see most of the UK from the top floor?
