public enum LockMode extends Enum<LockMode>
Locking Rules
Together with
TransactionConfig and
EnvironmentConfig settings, lock mode parameters determine how records are
locked during read operations. Record locking is used to enforce the
isolation modes that are configured. Record locking is summarized below for
read and write operations. For more information on isolation levels and
transactions, see Writing Transactional Applications.
With one exception, a record lock is always acquired when a record is
read or written, and a cursor will always hold the lock as long as it is
positioned on the record. The exception is when
is specified, which allows a record to be read without any locking.
Both read (shared) and write (exclusive) locks are used. Read locks are
normally acquired on read (
get method} operations and write locks on
write (
put method) operations. However, a write lock will be
acquired on a read operation if
RMW is specified.
Because read locks are shared, multiple accessors may read the same record. Because write locks are exclusive, if a record is written by one accessor it may not be read or written by another accessor. An accessor is either a transaction or a thread (for non-transactional operations).
Whether additional locking is performed and how locks are released depend on whether the operation is transactional and other configuration settings.
Transactional Locking
Transactional operations include all write operations for a transactional
database, and read operations when a non-null
Transaction parameter
is passed. When a null transaction parameter is passed for a write
operation for a transactional database, an auto-commit transaction is
automatically used.
With transactions, read and write locks are normally held until the end
of the transaction (commit or abort). Write locks are always held until the
end of the transaction. However, if
READ_COMMITTED is configured,
then read locks for cursor operations are only held during the operation and
while the cursor is positioned on the record. The read lock is released
when the cursor is moved to a different record or closed. When
READ_COMMITTED is used for a database (non-cursor) operation, the read
lock is released before the method returns.
When neither
READ_UNCOMMITTED nor
READ_COMMITTED is
specified, read and write locking as described above provide Repeatable Read
isolation, which is the default transactional isolation level. If
Serializable isolation is configured, additional "next key" locking is
performed to prevent "phantoms" -- records that are not visible at one point
in a transaction but that become visible at a later point after being
inserted by another transaction. Serializable isolation is configured via
TransactionConfig.setSerializableIsolation(boolean) or
Non-Transactional Locking
Non-transactional operations include all operations for a
non-transactional database (including a Deferred Write database), and read
operations for a transactional database when a null
parameter is passed.
For non-transactional operations, both read and write locks are only held while a cursor is positioned on the record, and are released when the cursor is moved to a different record or closed. For database (non-cursor) operations, the read or write lock is released before the method returns.
This behavior is similar to
READ_COMMITTED, except that both
read and write locks are released. Configuring
READ_COMMITTED for
a non-transactional database cursor has no effect.
Because the current thread is the accessor (locker) for non-transactional operations, a single thread may have multiple cursors open without locking conflicts. Two non-transactional cursors in the same thread may access the same record via write or read operations without conflicts, and the changes make by one cursor will be visible to the other cursor.
However, a non-transactional operation will conflict with a transactional
operation for the same record even when performed in the same thread. When
using a transaction in a particular thread for a particular database, to
avoid conflicts you should use that transaction for all access to that
database in that thread. In other words, to avoid conflicts always pass the
transction parameter, not null, for all operations. If you don't wish to
hold the read lock for the duration of the transaction, specify

England manager Roy Hodgson wants football fans to turn into Olympic gentlemen
8/14/12 in Olympics, Summer | KurtKingsley | 1858 respect
England manager Roy Hodgson wants the 2012 London Olympics to be a wake-up call for the football players and fans. Roy Hodgson feels the Olympics set a perfect example for how football fans should behave during matches.
England faces Italy in an international friendly on Wednesday. Speaking in a news conference today, Roy Hodgson advised his men to take inspiration from Great Britain's athletes.
The former Liverpool manager confessed he was impressed with professionalism of athletes at the Olympics. Roy Hodgson also asked football fans to learn a few things from supporters at the Olympics.
"We need to understand that when we play, as an England football team, we're under the same spotlight [as Olympians], we're under the same requirement to perform and live up to the high expectations so we can learn from that," Roy Hodgson said.
"And the other thing I think we can learn is how well the athletes perform in interviews after the event, the humility they show when they win, the grace that they show in relation to opponents that they've beaten and the way that they quite frankly show and admit their disappointment if they didn't quite reach the level that they wanted to do."
In spite of the desire to turn football into Olympics, Roy Hodgson pointed out that the pressure in a football stadium was much more than in an Olympic stadium. Roy Hodgson explained that playing in front of a wild crowd, which could be at home or away, was entirely different from the gentlemen environment at the Olympics.
"All these things are very good, but of course you must understand that they are performing in front of quite a different audience to the audiences we perform for," Roy Hodgson said.
"Performing at the Olympic Stadium in front 80,000 people supporting is a bit different to playing away from home at one of the big English stadiums with quite a few people trying to upset you as much as they possibly can."
Nonetheless, Roy Hodgson believes English fans should turn into the gentlemen supporters at the Olympics.
"Possibly, maybe this a wake-up call for us all (in football) that you don't need that hatred and abuse that football players have to suffer while they're playing," Roy Hodgson said.
"Certainly we didn't see too much of that in the Olympic Games and maybe that makes for a safe athlete as well."

Takeshi Kaneshiro no longer a heartthrob?
Following a prolonged absence from the entertainment scene (his last project was 2011's Wu Xia), Takeshi Kaneshiro was spotted filming an airline commercial in Paris recently.
From the photos published in media reports, the 40-year-old appeared to have lost his charming good looks of yesteryear. He was spotted with a double chin and a rounder face, causing sharp-tongued netizens to label him an uncle. "Even age takes its toll on such a handsome chap," said a netizen.
Fans have spoken up in defence of their half-Japanese, half-Taiwanese idol by attributing his current look to a "mature image", claiming that the heartthrob appeared to be in bad shape due to his 5am call time for the shoot.
Takeshi's manager also responded to the criticisms yesterday. She clarified that the artiste still maintains a rigorous beauty regime and takes part in outdoor activities regularly.
"The body condition is naturally different as we age. You can't expect him to maintain his 20-year-old condition forever," said his manager, who also revealed that the actor will begin filming for Hong Kong director John Woo's new film, The Crossing, next month.
The Crossing also features Chinese stars Huang Xiao Ming, Zhang Ziyi and Korean actress Song Hye-kyo.

I found this purse a couple of years ago on the dayspring.com site and added it to my Christmas wishlist that year. I have carried it daily since then and constantly receive compliments from girls that range from teens to my age (mom of adult children!). I especially enjoy sharing with others how the purchase of this purse helps empower women in impoverished Northern India. Win-Win!
Recommend: No
I ordered this because it supports a good cause and looks cute. It is very thin fabric, and it would make a better grocery sack than bag really. I do not really even want to use it or gift it!
I like it a lot! It's authentic and I like that I can tell the story about the women. It's pretty big and could fit my school books. It also has a pouch on the inside which I was happy about. Makes a great gift idea too!

Sometimes LFSRs are used to drive RAM addresses in high-speed data collection, because LFSRs are simpler and can be clocked much faster than counters that use grayscale or natural binary codes. Like these other kinds of counters, a particular LFSR always counts through every value in its range exactly once before repeating. It repeats the same sequence of values every time. LFSRs are used in the GPS satellite transmitters and in CDMA cell phones (both use "direct spread-spectrum communication"). The GPS satellites all transmit at the same time and the same frequency. LFSRs are used in "spread-spectrum clocking" and PCI Express and a few other physical layer protocols. Without the LFSRs, those protocols would transmit data just as well, but interfere with radio and televisions at one fixed frequency.

It's June 21, the Summer Solstice and also World Humanist Day, by no coincidence: it's on the longest day of the year, the day the sunlight shines for the longest time, to symbolize the light of reason illuminating humanity in much the same way that the light of the sun illuminates the earth.
So, on this most auspicious of occasions, I hope you'll allow me to share a few thoughts on my own personal Humanism.
Atheism doesn't play a major role in my life all the time, but Humanism never stops.
I have my cycle of obsessions, and part of the reason that this blog hasn't really been updated is because the cycle has moved on. I'm definitely still interested in atheist and interfaith activism, but it's more of a passing interest at current, so atheism isn't really playing a huge role in my life right now. I know fighting for the rights of nonbelievers and helping others understand secularism and atheism is important work, but it's not occupying a lot of my time right now.
However, here's where I draw the distinction. Humanism isn't simply atheism with a fancy name or atheism plus morality. My atheism may have stopped playing a major role in my life, but my Humanism has never stopped. My Humanist beliefs color every interaction and friendship I have. I base my Humanism on a core optimism about human nature and faith in the ability of every human being to do good. It's profoundly affected the way I treat people and how I view people in general.
I consider myself a Christian atheist.
This may be news for some, but I've been doing a lot of thinking about religion as of late. Especially since Cardinal Bergoglio became Pope Francis, doing great work to fix the hypocrisy and vanity in the Church, I've been encouraging myself to own my Roman Catholic upbringing. There are many Church teachings I agree with, and for the ones I disagree with, I'm not alone: pro-choice Catholics created Catholics for Choice to promote freedom of conscience, and the coalition Equally Blessed promotes equal rights for LGBT individuals within the Church.
Obviously following Christianity without even believing in God isn't exactly mainstream, but it works for me. I draw inspiration from many religious traditions, but Christianity feels the most personal to me. The way I think of it is this: I'm inspired by the Bible but not bound by it. I consider Jesus an exemplary role model to follow. The Christian teaching that I think about most often is the seven deadly sins. I consider them the cause of all suffering: Pride, Greed, Lust, Envy, Gluttony, Wrath, and Sloth. When I find myself challenged by one of these, I call to mind the opposing seven heavenly virtues: Humility, Charity, Chastity, Kindness, Temperance, Patience, and Diligence. A pretty good guide to living, if you ask me.
While I don't believe in their supernatural propositions, I draw inspiration from many religious traditions.
Religion is a very interesting topic to me. It frustrates me when some atheists dismiss all religion out of hand, because there is definite wisdom to be found in the varied religious traditions of the world. Yes, most religions include supernatural aspects, but another aspect of the definition of religion is that they provide a code of ethics to live by, and there's a perhaps surprising (though, if you really think about it, not surprising at all) amount of overlap in the morals of the different religions. Yes, religion can be corrupted by dogmatism and tribalism to become a mockery of the ideals it promotes, but that doesn't diminish the value of those ideals. If anything, it demonstrates the need to remain diligent in promoting those ideals, because they can become corrupted so easily. Ideals to live by: sounds like Humanism to me.
So on this longest day of the year, take a moment to think about how Humanism influences your life. Not even necessarily the secular kind. Faith in humanity is Humanism. Working to promote the inherent dignity of every person is Humanism. If you work to improve the lives of people, you can call yourself a Humanist.
I suppose this is my coming out. As I've known for a few months now, I'm bisexual. I've always been an advocate for LGBT rights, but this realization has made the issue take on an even more personal significance for me. Today I participated in the Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network's Day of Silence. I spent basically all of today completely silent except when it was absolutely necessary for me to speak. Even for a hyper-introverted person like myself, it was torture. And much like it's never the fall that kills you, it's not the silence that drives you insane. It's the lack of communication. The feeling of not being able to get your point across. Basically, the whole point of having this Day of Silence. So, since I spent a day locked in a room with my uncontrollable internal monologue, unable to escape, I've done some thinking about some lessons that the Day of Silence can teach.
Lesson One. Your allies are the people who speak for you when you have no voice.
The Day of Silence offers a nice opportunity to appreciate some of the issues faced by the LGBT community usually expressed in figurative terms by making them literal. Much like the straight allies who speak out to those who won't listen to the people themselves because of their identities, on the Day of Silence, your allies are the people who literally speak for you — those who are willing to communicate ideas to others that you cannot.
Lesson Two. There are few things that are truly black and white. It's frustrating to be expected to pick between two choices when neither describes how you really feel.
Anyone who's participated in the Day of Silence can tell you that it's easy enough to work with yes or no questions — the problem comes when your answer to a question can't be easily captured with a shake of the head or a simple hand gesture. Coincidentally, this too serves as an eloquent allegory for a LGBT issue. Especially for the oft-overlooked latter half of LGBT (i.e. bisexuals and trans* people, and the rest when extended to some of the more unwieldy abbreviations like LGBTQIA…), society often seems to expect people to "pick a side": gay or straight, male or female… you get the idea. Thing is, it's not really that simple. What's to be said when you're given two choices and you don't feel like either truly represents you?
And finally…
Lesson Three. There are many creative ways to communicate without talking.
This one doesn't really translate into any great epiphany about LGBT issues, but it's impossible to get through a Day of Silence without learning it. There may be debates on the extent to which it's cheating, but one way or another, be it through a notebook you carry around, sticky notes, or Charades: Hard Mode, if you're being silent for a day, you're gonna figure out a way to communicate. Oh wait. I guess that does translate into a good metaphor.
Lesson Four. We will never be silenced.
One of the great qualities of the human person is determination. We don't simply quietly acquiesce to oppression. There is such thing as right and wrong, it turns out, and what is right always wins. Maybe not at first, and never without cost, but in the end, driven by that very human determination, the right side prevails. Those who seek to reduce the dignity of the human person, who resist change out of fear of the unknown, will be forced either to change themselves or watch as they become increasingly irrelevant, because they will never, ever win.
I retained no other purpose but to ponder my own existence. I rudely took the Universe by her collar and demanded the answers I seeked. She sang electrical melodies — telegraphed her response across a cable of neurons. She breathed proteins and sighed silky strands of DNA. Her answers were at once exciting and frustrating — as all good things are. Her poetic prose echoed across the vastness, a series of electrical impulses stretching to eternity, wherever that may be.

I originally posted this lengthy tirade as a status on Facebook, in response to a particularly heartless Holocaust joke. I promise I'm not usually this cynical, but this is a troubling trend I've been noticing with my generation and Internet culture.
TL;DR: Read it. Show that you're capable of processing more than 140 characters at a time.
I get it; I've been immersed in the Internet culture firsthand. I've laughed at the jokes. But I've changed my perspective a lot in the past couple of years. Now? I don't do offensive humor. Worst offender: Holocaust jokes. I might have laughed at them before. But now? At first glance, they're amusing puns or wordplay. I want to laugh. Maybe I almost smile for a fraction of a second. But I've been to Holocaust museums. I've read the stories the legions never survived to tell. I've studied the madness that was the Holocaust, undoubtedly one of the greatest crimes against humanity in all of history. I see a joke, I want to laugh… but then I remember what I saw, and I don't. SIX. MILLION. That's how many Jews died in the Holocaust. Six million people, brutally murdered by people who saw no wrong in doing so. It seemed as crazy at the time as it does now. Few believed that the Nazis would really go through with their plans, and six million Jews paid the ultimate price for it. If you feel comfortable trivializing the senseless murder of so many people, I think you need to examine your life, because you're seriously deficient in empathy. But that's not even what breaks my heart. What breaks my heart is that there are people who will see this and think nothing of it; label me a "moralfag", pat themselves on the back for being good trolls, and move on with their lives. That's the tragedy here.
What have we done?
This post is originally from NonProphet Status. The introduction is written by Vlad Chituc, and the section I contributed is the next-to-last one.
I'm an atheist, but a year ago I became a vegan for Lent. I was inspired by Alain de Botton's book, "Religion for Atheists" and a general realization that bad habits and failures of will were the biggest barriers to getting where I wanted in life. I figured that Lent's 40-day trial period was a nice religious practice that could be easily translated into secular life.
We're continuing and expanding that tradition this year at NonProphet Status. I asked our contributors, as well as some of our favorite people, to share what they were giving up for Lent.
Vlad Chituc
I had a few accidental dietary transgressions last year, and I quickly learned how easy it can be to ignore what's in what we're eating. For the most part, though, I solidified a lot of the eating habits I have today. Though I'm not entirely vegan (yet), I've been gradually replacing eggs and dairy in my diet. I maintain a vegan diet for most meals in any given week, so I'm going to give veganism another try this year, hopefully for good.
It's boring, though, to do the same thing two years in a row. So I'll follow through with some sage advice from this Twitter feed: I'll be reading no internet comments for the next 40 days, comments here notwithstanding. I've wasted way too many hours arguing with strangers on the internet for no discernible reason, and there's no sense in wasting my time and harming my mental health on something so petty. I'm convinced that very little, if any good, has ever come from the average comment thread in any website. I have never heard anyone say "Wow, I'm really happy I read that insightful comment section," so I think this is for the best.
Chris Stedman
I haven't observed Lent since I was a Christian, so this is something new. But I like trying new things, so here goes. Instead of giving something up for my first atheist Lent, I'm going to add a practice: every day, I will make an effort to tell at least one person in my life at least one of the reasons that I am glad to know them. Often times, in the busyness of life, these kinds of feelings go unexpressed. We just assume that people already know that we love them, or that we demonstrate our gratitude sufficiently through our actions, or that we'll get around to verbalizing it later. This Lent, I'm going to try to be a bit more intentional about expressing my gratitude for the many ways other people enrich my life.
Chelsea Link
I really like the idea of Lent – like Vlad said, giving yourself a set amount of time to try breaking a bad habit (or forming a new good one, like Chris is working on) seems like a really healthy practice. The combination of a predetermined end-date that you can always look forward to as a willpower booster and the solidarity of lots of other people taking on similar challenges at the same time makes Lent a smart tradition for anyone to adopt, Christian or otherwise.
This year, in an effort to both take better care of my body and be more financially prudent, I'm giving up alcohol for the next 40 days. I'm making an exception for the bottle of champagne I've been saving to celebrate my boyfriend's last day of work this weekend, because rituals and traditions should be flexible, not dogmatic. But I feel like I'm somewhat making up for that rule-bending in a few weeks since I'll be keeping kosher for Passover during the last week of Lent. Borrowing from two religions at once has got to count for something, right? Thank goodness Ramadan is still a few months away.
Adam Garner
My phone is for all intents and purposes an extension of my body. If I'm not obsessively checking Twitter or refreshing my Facebook news feed, I'm getting into internet fights on Reddit. It's bad enough that when I go out to dinner with my girlfriend I have to surrender my phone as soon as we sit down. So for the next 40 days I'm going to make a potentially futile attempt to wean myself off of neurotically checking my phone every 3 minutes. That's not to say that I'm going to give it up completely. I'm about 98% sure that would break me. But I really like the idea that for the next couple of weeks I'm going to make a conscious effort to only check it once every…hour. Yeah. I think I can do that.
On top of trying to wrangle in an obnoxious addiction, this is going to be a weird experience for me. Being that I was raised Mormon and am now a godless heathen, I've never observed Lent. Actually, up until about 2 hours ago I never even considered it a possibility. But the more I thought about it, the more it made sense. There's something powerful about millions of people over the same 40 days trying their best to conquer bad habits and collectively distance themselves from those things that we trick ourselves into thinking we need.
Keith Favre
A few months ago, I would have dismissed the term "cultural Catholic." But I've since developed a near obsession-level interest in religion, and that's taught me to appreciate the positive aspects of the tradition I was raised in. It seems natural to capture the spirit of Lent in my own secular practices, just as it does with Christmas and other religious rituals. Following this logic and some inspiration from Vlad's piece "Lent for Atheists," I decided to give adopt a vegetarian diet for Lent this year. I would try veganism, but one step at a time.
That's not the only thing I'm giving up for Lent, though. As it turns out, a lot of those lessons from Sunday school many years ago have stuck in my head. Every year we would have the Lent discussion; everyone wants to give up things like chocolate or soda, but that's missing the point. Thinking theologically, what you give up should be some vice that's distancing you from God. From a secular perspective, then, it should be something that's distancing you from being a better person. In this way, it seems to me that the purpose of the Lent tradition is self-improvement. My sacrifice of meat-eating will be my 40-day experiment, as Vlad put it. The vice that I'll be giving up, though, is procrastination. It's a popular subject for jokes on the internet, but it's also something that has started to become a serious problem for me. I'll hopefully end these forty days with less stress from work and more awareness of the challenges I'll face with my inevitable full transition to a vegetarian diet. Let the games begin.
Walker Bristol
I'll give up tweeting raisin puns for Lent.
"Joseph Raisinger", "Singin in the Raisin'', "If emotion without raisin is blind, then raisin without emotion is impotent", "Raisin Rally"…
I've dismissed the term cultural Catholic in the past, but I'm growing to think that it might apply to me. Just about an hour remains until Ash Wednesday, the first day of the Catholic season of Lent. As with some other holidays, I really like the idea of Lent. During Lent, Fridays are days of fasting and abstinence, which means that food should not be eaten outside of meals and meat should not be eaten at all, though for some reason there's an exception for fish meat. The most significant ritual of the Lenten season, however, is the giving up of a vice. Every year, Catholics are supposed to choose something to give up for Lent. Of course those not very invested in their faith (but nonetheless feeling an obligation) choose things like chocolate or soda, complain the whole way through, and emerge on the other side unchanged. But, as any Sunday school teacher will tell you, that's not the point. The thing you give up doesn't even have to be a thing. The point of giving up something during Lent is to try to make a positive change in your life. This year, I plan to celebrate Lent, even though I'm an atheist. Self-improvement is always good, and looks like it's in season now. My vice (oh, my terrible, terrible vice) is procrastination. That's what I'll be giving up, hopefully. Additionally, and somewhat inspired by Vlad Chituc's piece entitled "Lent for Atheists", I'll be trying out vegetarianism during Lent. So here's hoping that what I give up during Lent will stay given up. Let the games begin.
Do you actually check this?
Interesting. The self-answering question.
Anyway, yes. I do. And for when I don't, I get emails.
In every age there are those who proclaim the imminent death of religion. They seem to be to religious apocalyptic doomsayers what bigoted New Atheists are to religious fundamentalists, seemingly a mirror image. Like the various spectacular non-apocalypses we've experienced, the continued persistence of religion should serve to show that perhaps their reasoning is a bit off. A recent example of this is Valerie Tarico in her Salon article "Religion May Not Survive the Internet". There are a couple of reasons why her titular claim is a little far-fetched. Shall we?
First off, religion has survived for many thousands of years. That's gotta mean something. That something is that religion is not a monolith. The fundamental flaw in the "God is dead"-sayers' reasoning is, time and time again, their conception of religion. They see religion as this outdated, slowly decaying bit of craziness that will lie down and quietly fade into irrelevance any day now. But the fact is that religion has only survived so long because it can change. Nothing that is incapable of change will survive for very long in a changing world. A particular example of religion changing can be found in the Roman Catholic Church's posthumous overturning of its ruling on Galileo. It obviously wasn't for his benefit; at the time, Galileo was long dead. It was symbolic. The reversal of the ruling that put a man to death for seeking scientific truth was the symbolic rejection of the type of strict, literal interpretation of scripture that had formerly characterized the Church. I'm not saying that there aren't still problems with religion — they are legion, certainly. I'm just saying that religion won't just shrivel up and die. It's only the negative aspects that are likely to do that. (And good riddance!) At its heart, a religious community is a group of human beings, and if they change, so too will the religion.
A point that's rather unique to modern doomsayers (and that Tarico makes significant use of in her article) is the observation of the growing ease of access to and acceptance of alternatives to religion. To say that that could bring about religion's demise is making a pretty big leap. Once again, the problem is with the view of religion (religious people, specifically, in this instance). The only way that easier access to alternatives to religion could bring about religion's demise is if every religious believer only remains in their particular religious community out of a sense of obligation. Now, this is certainly the case for some closet atheists, but it's hardly an accurate picture of the average believer. Put simply, most religious people aren't looking for an alternative to religion. It should go without saying that many people live happy, fulfilling religious lives.
The conclusion that Tarico reaches in her article is simply wrong, because it is based on a stereotype of religion as a monolithic, unchanging entity whose adherents participate only out of a sense of obligation. There are certainly instances where that's the case, but it's those bits that stand to fade into irrelevance, not religion as a whole. Our religions reflect ourselves, conferring on them that very human resilience that will likely keep us seeing religion in some form or another for ages to come.
This was originally written as a response to a post in /r/religion asking "How has ubiquitous access to the sum of human knowledge (aka the Internet) affected your faith (or lack thereof)?"
I wouldn't say that the Internet caused me to lose my faith. More that it helped me discover that I didn't really have it in the first place. Reading and learning from the Internet for many years led me to a point where I was an "agnostic Catholic" (though many object to equating "agnostic" to "weak", it was pretty much true then). I then discovered deism, which defines God as only the Supreme Architect, the non-intervening creator of the universe. Reading the definition made me recall sitting in church one afternoon and trying to figure out how I could make the Big Bang theory and God work together at a young age. For that reason, I embraced deism readily. The Internet also encouraged me later to realize that I was only a deist because I didn't want to let go of God, even if my "God" would be more recognizable to Epicurus or Spinoza than Aquinas. I decided I was an atheist and later started reading a lot about Humanism. My readings on Humanism, at first mostly on the Internet but later in a couple of physical books as well, has profoundly influenced the way I view the world and humanity; to steal a phrase from Douglas Adams, Life, the Universe, and Everything. So though my faith in God was never strong (and when it was, only because I was convinced by a scientific apologetic book), my faith in humanity as a Humanist is stronger than ever, and I have the Internet to thank for it.
Seeing news of the Freedom From Religion Foundation's (in)famous 'Let Reason Prevail' sign a few weeks ago, I was reminded of hearing about the same sign back in my deist days.
Figure 1. Let tactlessness prevail.
Naturally, I was disgusted back then, but my perspective was also a bit different. A deist is little more than an atheist with a god, and as a deist, I liked to imagine myself as above all the petty squabbling between atheists and the religious. I was convinced that neither side was giving the other enough credit, and while I still think that's true to a certain extent, I failed to realize at the time that a person who thinks about such matters as often as I do can never be above the continuum of belief and doubt. I could never be an apatheist, and my foundation for deism was far from sturdy. But recognizing that I'm now equipped with 20/20 hindsight, how do I feel about this sign now that I consider myself an atheist and a Humanist?
CNN's Dan Merica noted a few days ago that "Christmas exposes [the] atheist divide on dealing with religion." So where do I place myself on this divide? Merica's article uses American Atheists' David Silverman and Harvard Humanist Chaplain Greg Epstein as the exemplars of the opposing sides of the divide. I place myself squarely on Epstein's side. As I've noted before, trivializing people's beliefs is not a very effective "strategy". Atheists are already at a disadvantage in American society, and calling other people's deeply held beliefs "myth and superstition that hardens hearts and enslaves minds" isn't likely to help our cause terribly. I'd imagine that some of these atheist activists all too eager to trivialize others' beliefs wouldn't appreciate the same being done to them.
Figure 2. Doesn't feel good, does it?
Naturally, I can't end my Christmas post without talking about the real meaning of Christmas (cue groans from the audience), as I did with Thanksgiving earlier this year. Pointing out that Christmas and friends originated from pagan winter solstice celebrations, besides failing entirely to change the minds of the "War on Christmas" folks (who are a little less than receptive to such sentiments), completely misses the point. Why are there so many celebrations around the winter solstice? No matter how you choose to celebrate it, winter is a time to celebrate humanity, to show that no matter how cold things get, the warmth of the human spirit will always prevail. (This was the idea I had in mind when I wrote "The Defeat of General Winter, or The Vernal Equinox Funeral Mass".) Christmas and Thanksgiving are a couple of my favorite holidays because they are, at the core, celebrations of the inherent goodness of humanity (as the American Humanist Association would say, "Sounds Like Humanism!"). With the associated mythology (which, I should add, is not necessarily a bad thing), Thanksgiving is a celebration of gratitude and Christmas is a celebration of generosity. I'd imagine that, much as rejection of their god, which, for the most part, they view as an embodiment of humanity's positive potential, puzzles the religious, rejection of this celebration makes little sense. Whether or not it's literally true that a jolly man with a magical sleigh and flying reindeer delivers presents to all the world's children in one night is moot when the point is to celebrate generosity and the unity of humanity.
I hope Andrew Tripp of Considered Exclamations doesn't mind if I steal the concluding paragraph from his post that inspired me to write all of this:
With their incredibly out of touch priorities, American Atheists and the Freedom From Religion Foundation are not helping to advance secularism or civil rights for atheists with their Christmastime actions. What they are doing is sophomoric and more fit for name-calling in a high school cafeteria than it is for high profile activist organizations. Especially when lined up side by side with the Harvard Humanists, they are an embarrassment. And while I still have my differences with some of the Humanists there, their activism is actually helping people, and they should be applauded for it. On the other hand, AA and the FFRF need to take a strong look at themselves, and think about whether they actually want to change the world for the better or just continue to try to one-up religious people. If it's the latter, they do not deserve our community's support.
So from one human being to another, Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night.

Although the arrival of the statue did give it away before the event, Google has now announced Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, and it dedicated a portion of the Google I/O keynote presentation to detailing the changes made in this latest version of its mobile OS.
Anyone expecting huge alterations will be disappointed, as this is a relatively light update to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. But while the new features may not be numerous, there are several which could greatly improve the Android experience.
Perhaps the most interesting is Project Butter. This is Google's attempt to make the OS smoother and more responsive. Introduced by the company's engineering director, Dave Burke, he claims it has made Jelly Bean the "fastest and smoothest version of Android yet". By increasing the frame rate to 60fps and keeping it consistent across the system, transitions between apps and screens, page scrolling and even apps will benefit.
The next change is to the home screen, which dynamically adjusts the size of widgets to fit properly, or by shifting other icons around. Apps that are no longer needed can be swiped off the screen to delete them, speeding up the old process.
Notifications have also been improved, and now include many functions relevant to them, for example a missed call has the option to call back, and calendar entries can be responded to without visiting the app. It's not just standard apps either, as Foursquare check-ins can be liked and commented on, and Google+ photo shares can be viewed full screen too.
One of the few completely new features is Google Now, which is part of Google Search. By using your location, previous searches, your calendar and various other factors, your phone will begin to help coordinate your life. This can be anything from showing you places of interest when you're out and about, to recommending you leave for work as the traffic is getting worse. There's no setup, as its knowledge comes from your previous actions, and it's accessed using either the search box or by swiping up on the screen.
Search has been given a redesigned UI, and vastly improved voice recognition where answers are read back to you. Search results are displayed on cards for easier reading, and these can be swiped aside to show standard web results.
Other features include photo and video sharing using NFC and Android Beam, a quick-review gallery for new photos in the Camera app, offline voice typing and revised predictive text, where a pop-up lets you select your next word from a list instead of typing it.
So when can you expect to get 4.1 Jelly Bean on your phone? If you own a Galaxy Nexus, a Mototola Xoom tablet and the Nexus S, then it's coming as an over-the-air update in July.
Everyone else, well, there's no news whatsoever. But, did you really expect there to be?

By SUSAN MONTOYA BRYAN
Associated Press
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) - A 12-mile run for Micah True was like an easy cruise. The ultra-marathon runner was used to tackling more than four times that distance over much more grueling terrain and under the hot Mexican sun.
His body became conditioned with many miles under his belt, years of training and a diet with few vices _ aside from the occasional beer or scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Because he was in such superb shape, his death during a routine run through the Gila Wilderness of southwestern New Mexico in late March surprised his friends and fans.
It's been more than five weeks since his body was recovered. Medical examiners have done their autopsy and released the results, but friends are still left guessing whether genetics or something else is to blame for stopping the man known as "Caballo Blanco" in his tracks.
"It doesn't fit with him going on a two-hour run. It wasn't exceptionally hot. By a lot of ultra-marathoners' standards, it was pretty simple," said Scott Jurek, one of the top ultra-runners in the world who knew True and helped search for him. "I doubt he was running that hard. I think it was just a matter of timing."
An autopsy report released Tuesday by the Office of the Medical Investigator showed the 58-year-old runner had cardiomyopathy, a disease that results in the heart becoming enlarged.
While medical examiners couldn't point to the cause of the heart disease, they said True's left ventricle, the chamber of the heart that pumps oxygenated blood to the rest of the body, had become thick and was dilated. That can result in an irregular heartbeat during exertion.
For athletes who spend a lot of time on the trail, Jurek said it's not unusual for them to have larger left ventricles. He suggested that many ultra-marathoners developed the trait over years of conditioning their bodies to travel such vast distances.
A sport considered insane by some, ultra-runners will argue that the human body was made for running. It's what humans used to do to survive in the wild. But more than that, they say, it's about listening to their bodies, finding an inner peace and enjoying the scenery at the same time.
True boiled it down to having fun.
Remembered as a legend and an inspiration among runners, True, nicknamed "Caballo Blanco," was known for his big smile and infectious love of running.
He had been involved in ultra-marathons for years, but it wasn't until he became friends with the indigenous Tarahumara of Mexico that the direction of his life came into sharp focus. The Tarahumara are known for their extreme running prowess.
True spent much of the year living among the Tarahumara, or Raramuri, as they are also known. It was in the canyons where he got rid of his running shoes, put on a pair of sandals and learned to run the way the Tarahumara do _ easy, light and smooth.
True's body was discovered March 31 along a stream in the Gila Wilderness north of Silver City, N.M. The search for him began days earlier after he failed to return from his run.
Chemical tests showed that True was mildly dehydrated and had caffeine in his system. He also had some abrasions on his elbows, forearms, knees and shins.
Friends theorized that he stopped at the stream to wash up after taking a tumble on the rugged terrain.
True's girlfriend, Maria Walton of Gilbert, Ariz., said True had no major health concerns.
"His only health issue was that he was hypoglycemic, and with no proper nutrition he would get dizzy or feel lightheaded. Not anything life endangering," Walton said.
"You know, at 6-2, 180 pounds, 31- to 32-inch waist, for a 58 year old man, that's pretty fit."
A disciplined eater, True would occasionally splurge and drink two beers when he wasn't running, Walton said. When friends would ask him if he had a vice, he would answer: "Vanilla ice cream," that Walton said came from a small market near where he died.
True founded the 50-mile-plus Copper Canyon race in Mexico and directed it for the last several years to highlight the Tarahumara's culture and their love for running. This year had marked a record turnout for the event, which sends participants, many wearing only sandals made of discarded tires, plunging into deep canyons and across mountains and rivers.
To his friends, True was healthy.
"This is a guy who could set out with a little bag of ground corn, a bottle of water in his hand and be gone all day. The day before he died, he did a six-hour run," said Chris McDougall, a friend and author of "Born to Run." The book chronicles True's efforts to develop the Copper Canyon race and draw international attention to the Tarahumara way of life.

Anna Kendrick covers Elle magazine, talks sex appeal and "ultralate" blooming
Los Angeles, CA, United States (4E) – Anna Kendrick is the face of Elle Magazine's July issue and in the interview, she revealed that no guy has hit on her since she filmed the 2009 flick "Up in the Air," and believed that her being an "ultralate bloomer" was actually a blessing.
The 28-year-old actress, also dubbed as the "savviest social-media star of her generation," admitted that despite her mega achievements (an Oscar nomination, chart-topping song, etc.), she hasn't been hit on since starring in "Up in the Air" with George Clooney. "Honest to God," she insists. On the other hand, Kendrick has broken up with her boyfriend of four years Edgar Wright last year.
In spite of the media highlighting her "hotness," the "Pitch Perfect" star also said that she has "never felt like I've exactly traded on my looks."
She said, "When I was a teenager, I was an ultralate bloomer, and my mom would say it was a blessing, because it means you never have to wonder if guys are only interested in you because you've got boobs. I would have been thrilled if guys were interested in me because of my boobs!" Kendrick added, "Similarly, I think I'm lucky that I've never had a crisis about whether the only reason I'm successful is because I'm crazy hot. It's not something that crosses my mind."
Meanwhile, on her feisty image on the magazine's issue, she wrote to her 2.5 million Twitter followers, "The character I'm channeling for my Elle cover shoot probably killed her 1st husband."

- GHL has traded 103,100 shares today.
- GHL traded in a range 205% of the normal price range with a price range of $3.06.

STOCKS TO BUY: TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified a handful of stocks that can potentially TRIPLE in the next 12 months. Learn more. TheStreetRatings.com Analysis: TheStreet Quant Ratings rates Greenhill as a buy. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its growth in earnings per share and increase in net income. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had lackluster performance in the stock itself. Highlights from the ratings report include:
- GREENHILL & CO INC has improved earnings per share by 6.0% in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. The company has demonstrated a pattern of positive earnings per share growth over the past year. We feel that this trend should continue. During the past fiscal year, GREENHILL & CO INC increased its bottom line by earning $1.56 versus $1.38 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($1.95 versus $1.56).
- GHL, with its decline in revenue, slightly underperformed the industry average of 17.1%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues fell by 17.3%. The declining revenue has not hurt the company's bottom line, with increasing earnings per share.
- The company, on the basis of net income growth from the same quarter one year ago, has underperformed when compared to that of the S&P 500 and the Capital Markets industry average. The net income increased by 4.3% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, going from $15.13 million to $15.78 million.
- The gross profit margin for GREENHILL & CO INC is currently lower than what is desirable, coming in at 29.15%. It has decreased from the same quarter the previous year. Regardless of the weak results of the gross profit margin, the net profit margin of 20.67% is above that of the industry average.
- GHL has underperformed the S&P 500 Index, declining 16.62% from its price level of one year ago. Despite the decline in its share price over the last year, this stock is still more expensive (when compared to its current earnings) than most other companies in its industry. We feel, however, that other strengths this company displays compensate for this.

Although technology and research success have enabled medical miracles that were unimaginable decades ago, many patients and doctors crave personal care that is more typical of yesteryear. Boutique or concierge medicine may be able to provide you with that option, but only if you can afford it.
Most boutique practices charge a high annual retainer that typically includes same-day appointments, short waits, and email or cell phone contact with the doctor. Some models include home visits and travel-medicine services. To provide this level of access, doctors accept a limited number of patients.
There are three practice models:
Concierge practices have ignited controversy in the medical community. Some say these practices discriminate against those who cannot afford to participate. Some doctors fear that limited practice sizes could increase crowding at remaining offices.
Another concern with these practices is that physicians in them do not treat a wide variety of patients. Exposing themselves to different types of patients with different conditions helps them build experience.
Nearly everyone recognizes that those who have the financial means more often buy better cars, private schooling, and other services. Medicine, though, has prided itself on providing equal care to everyone, yet some differences have always existed.
Being well informed is essential. If you are considering changing to a boutique-style medical practice, take these steps:
While debate continues about the bigger issues, individuals that can afford it seem eager to embrace the added convenience.

AMERICA/ARGENTINA - Children subject of rights: an obligation for all States
Buenos Aires (Agenzia Fides) - The website of the "Information System on early childhood" in Latin America (SIPI) has been updated. SIPI is a system oriented to satisfy the rights of early childhood in the continent. The system provides the regulations and policies (with updated data) implemented in the different Latin American countries.
The note sent to Fides Agency also illustrates the fundamental concept that inspired SIPI: to think of children as subjects of rights. Children are not to be considered a transition phase to adulthood, but as a time of life that has value in itself. For this reason, the focus on early childhood education is an obligation of States.
The idea of considering a child as a subject of rights produces at least three effects. First of all, not only the information regarding the welfare achieved by the children becomes relevant, but also the activities of the State. Secondly, this perspective determines the type of information that must be analyzed. Finally, it is important to consider the implementation of policies for children, their families and the community. The perspective of rights thus provides a rich framework on the basis of which one begins to accompany early childhood and identify what the State should guarantee a child. (CE) (Agenzia Fides 16/01/2014)

In a small wooded lot a busy woman stumbles upon a strange doll the neighbors possibly left. She attempts to reveal who brought the toy to her home, but she uncovers no real leads. Then, when a letter turns up asking her to give the doll away as soon as possible, she ends up on the edge of reason as the doll is in the midst of being reclaimed by someone. The doll, although small and cuddly, resembles a somewhat black entity similar to a doll she keeps in her home. A nearby psychic and fortune teller comes to her home asking her to give up the doll to keep her sanity, but she refuses. The stuffed animal, then turns out to be more than she bargained for when the bear starts to grow a tail and red eyes.

My skin is acting up (it's probably upset about Summer coming to an end), so I just took off all my makeup and city-grime with Eve Lom's Cleanser, and then smeared on the Rescue Mask. This thing has won a ton of awards and I get why. It's so cooling on the skin, calms irritation, and deep cleans with kaolin clay and honey to decongest even the crankiest faces.
Hey everyone! I know you all like contests, so why not check out this Valentine's Day themed one from Apothica?
It's full of some pretty great prizes, like the Clarisonic Mia (epic!), Deborah Lippman polish, and an amazing face palette from Too Faced. All things that will come in handy throughout the year (not just Valentine's Day!).
Check it out, enter, and good luck!
My round-up of the best beauty products I used in 2011. Check it out and tell me yours!
Marvis Cinnamon Mint Toothpaste available from C.O. Bigelow right now, currently offering $10 Off Orders of $75 or more from BigelowChemists.com! (Valid 12/15 - 12/27/11)
I am kind of obsessed with this site. I always thought C.O. Bigelow and Bigelow Chemists just had their eponymous brand, but now, it's a shop that carries some of the best brands out there. In particular am lusting after the aforementioned toothpaste (why won't I just buy it already? Love the tube design), along with gorgeous candles from Diptyque like this amazing set that would make a great gift (hint hint).
Or. Dr. Hauschka's Cleansing Cream, a great mild exfoliant.
I just really love the aesthetic of a lot of these products. Old fashioned, simple but luxurious packaging and great ingredients. Ah, I'm a sucker.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
The atmosphere at this school is very cold. The staff seem very unhappy. Both the principal and assistant principal are not easily accessible or caring.
We have the best and most dedicated teachers, kids, families and community in the state. We are the DEFINITION of what is means to be a community. WE ROCK!
I used to work at this school. It was a wonderful school then and it still is today. The teachers are great and the special ed dept. is the best. I was honored to work there.
I believe that Brooksville Elementary School is an outstanding Institution. My two childern both attend and I'm amazed at what they learn every day. They have grown in confidence and knowledge far above what I expected of the school system. I Have personally met with 5 of my childerns teachers, and have nothing bad to say about any of them. I believe that Micheal and Sarah are in good hands.
BES is so unfriendly, the front office is rude.We as some parents put it, we are nothing compared to them.Worked for Santa Shop for 4 days, not once did you get a thank you,hello are anything else. This office stuff needs a complete make over. I can say this,the prison graud we have at the front desk needs to just retire!My kids teachers are GREAT!! I won't do any more work up at the school. But like i said a GREAT THANK YOU TO MY TEACHERS : Mrs Wilson 1st & Mrs Ferraro 4th
I am very happy with the school. The front desk, back office and teaching staff are all good and helpful at all times. Sure they get busy but then you have to understand! My son has excelled there and the homework is taxing and keeps him on his toes.I rate this school highly and recommend it.
My son has been going to BES for one year now. He has really excelled since coming to BES from a PASCO school. The teacher he had for Kindergarten was outstanding. His first grade teacher is also good. He's learning a lot and I think the teachers love teaching our kids. Keep up the good work. I will have to agree with the previous mom's comments about the office staff. It does seem more often than not, when you come in, they seem to busy, or that you are bothering them at times. This is not the way it should be. It's all about customer service. This area needs some work. Overall a great school.
I never feel welcome when I come into the front office. I get very bad attitudes every time I go there. The office staff needs a lot of work on their people skills. The teachers are ok from what I have seen so far. My kids have been going there for 2 years now. I am happy with the way that they are treated in the classroom, but if the office staff treats adults the way that they do, It makes me wonder how our children are being treated. I'm not happy at all with them. I could understand if it was just one or two times, but to be treated like dirt every time, there is something wrong there! It needs to be fixed!
I think this school is a terrible place. They seem to pick out the less than rich families! they ignored me anytime I called or came to have a meeting with the principal they would tell me that I had no app. When i called a week before to sechule? This is a very low quality school. And I am very glad my children won'tbe back therre this school year!if you are just putting your children in school I would think twice about this one! If there is one promise you can get from me it is that this school lacks in every department.
BES is a very good school. The teachers really care for our kids. The pick up was a little crazy at the beginning of the year, but they now have a new system in place and it is very secure and safe. The best indicator is my two children that attend are growing and learning and they love it! Great Job BES!
This school is older, the school is crowded, the office staff is stressed, and the pickup system for the students who don't ride the bus is far from secure. Beware, anyone can pick up your child here if they know your childs name. Scary stuff.
Outstanding school with great leadership from staff. The staff members care about students and education. Children that attend Brooksville love all aspects of the school from the staff to the parents involvement at the school.
