This conversation is closed.
During the coming decades, in what ways do you anticipate that our humanity's hopes will win out over our fears?
Please think of our audience as the 3rd millennium generation, plus future generations. What legitimate hopes for our humanity's future can we offer children and pregnant women in 2013? How shall we act on our hope for the future?
Take the challenge to be positive, empathic, and good. Site references. Be your helpful best.
Jan 12 2013: One's man dream is another's nightmare...
The best we can hope for is a future which will be better equipped to be informed and be able to filter through piles of useless information...
Jan 12 2013: Hmm. ...best we can hope for... ...dream vs nightmare... ...filter...
Unless...Jan 12 2013: According to the anticipation model in Tali Sharot's theory on optimism bias, we maintain our best performance and happiness when we have an optimistic (one with hope) bias. We tend to make objective reality turn out well since we want so badly for it to fit the subjective positive outcome we are expecting.
My dream for the future is that all humans reach a healthy, safe, and interesting lifestyle for themselves and their children in this century. Is that somehow your nightmare?
I am not able to filter the increasing useless stuff very well even when I can tell the difference, but I consider this a software problem, not a personality problem. So my response is to ask software developers to tackle this issue head on. For example, if we had an algorithm that would search the meaningful context of web pages instead of just word proximity and word count, then we would be taking a huge step in the right direction.
Finally, if you are a parent (i. e. human family mentor) like me, it might be a good idea for us to infect our offspring with the viral meme of objective optimism. Note the chocolate and rain boots in Sara Kay's poem "Point B."
Jan 13 2013: The optimism bias is vastly interesting...
Roughly "anticipation of decisions/thoughts which are more pleasant in rationalization (of the future/moment)"
No, your dream is not my nightmare... That's not what I meant. However, the details of your dream may be a nightmare to another.
How do you picture religion? government? public education?
Depending on your answers, we can begin to see where disputes can manifest. Let's say for example you are in favor of Ayn Rand's objectivism... Well, with the current practice of corporate capitalism.. No matter how you approach the topic at hand, those who hear capitalism will automatically be turned off.
Your optimism of the future... in a sense. Can do more harm than good without careful attention to detail.. Consider donating to poor region of a third world country.. Give them clothes and food, nice right? Well, what about the farmers, markets and traders? They suffer, because their ability to compete in this capitalistic world is crippled. With good intentions, do not allows follow good results.
My point of the original post is we need to practice the platinum rule to be worldly people. And establish education values which are able to filter through the infinite amounts of information that is created daily...
Optimism education (teaching others to be positivist) is not innately bad, but if there is anything cognitive bias theory has taught me (like the one you noted), it is that humans are more often irrational naturally than not. It takes metacognition to a high degree of meditation and a desire to learn, in order to be better equipped to be objective.
A phantom theme here is... If money doesn't get made, development doesn't get pushed as heavily. Where is the profit from creating an algorithm which dictates context of webpages? In fact, that would objectively make a lot of companies lose money.
Reality... Is not a positive thing. We should not hope for the best, we should make the best.Jan 7 2013: There is hope because one person can make a difference; and the impact of one good example would be beautiful and admirable.
As parents we should lead by being examples of service, love, discipline and dedication; an exemplary life is a better sermon than nice speeches.
We will not solve all the world's problem; but we can be that inspiring and exemplary leader.
Jan 8 2013: Agreed, Feyisayo. Hope is contagious. That's such a fortunate benefit that can be spread and multiplied so well. I think we all experience emotions at both ends of a spectrum that runs from shame to hope. It might be that hope is the super motivator and shame the anti-motivator. Maybe hope is an attitude of victory and shame is an attitude of defeat.
greg dahlen
Jan 7 2013: So far I haven't met a child or a pregnant woman who seemed hopeless about the future. Have you? Who was it, and under what circumstances did you meet them? What did they say? What did you say back?
- +1
Jan 8 2013: Right. Greg. As far as pregnant women and babies being the most upbeat uplifting forces on the planet, I agree. Jonathan Haidt in his recent TED talk mentions that common ground can be found by having everyone focus on common threats. His metaphor is that there are asteroids heading toward us but each side, left and right, denies the other side's view about what is really a threat.
Emily Levine talks a rule for a drama game where you aren't allowed to deny the other person's reality, only to build on it. Now even though she talks about games and humor I think there is value in applying this kind of perspective to our common problems. Maybe first thing we need to do is to recognize that they are common problems.
Please understand, I want to avoid the excuse factory of relying on hoping instead of acting. Too often we can use hope as a verb that way and claim we are on the helpful side, but all we're really doing is "hoping."
By hope, I mean the noun, the motivation, the inspiration, like that glow in a pregnant woman's face.Jan 7 2013: What is optimism and what is pessimism. To me loss of the Polar bear is bad - I am sure that some will think suntans and bikinis on Northern Canadian and Siberian beaches could be a good thing. So I guess I'm pessimistic.
Jan 7 2013: I would define hope as the source of optimism and optimism as the view that things will turn out well. Pessimism would then be the view that things will not turn out well. My thesis statement is that actively seeking hope will fix our attitude on being good and doing good things for the betterment of this collection of individuals called humanity. While it is a large group I think that having a consensus and acting positively for the greater good together is the most effective means of ensuring better outcomes.Jan 14 2013: "...seeing our children for the hope that they are..."
A quote from Sir Ken lifts my expectation to the most hopeful possibilities.Jan 13 2013: We are educating people out of their creative capacities. I'm quoting Sir Ken Robinson but I think we can generally agree that this is the case in our current education system. Unless. My contention here is that this does not offer the kind of hope for the future that we would wish to see instilled in future generations. Current kindergarteners will be retiring in 2072. A centuries old tradition does not seem to me to be the best way of offering an engaging culture of hope and empathy. Sorry. That's another annoying aspect of my view. Expanding empathy as well as creativity is absolutely essential for out collective future. Sure, technology and its advances offers hope. Also our new-found social circles that expand to do good globally. These things offer hope in brand new ways and I am grateful for them.
Let's be organic gardeners of hope. Let's inspire future generations and humanity at large, not just tolerate them.Jan 13 2013: Part of what I gain in these TED conversations is the sense of where paradigms are changing or need to change. I start conversations attempting to change others by changing their perspectives. While that does happen I also end up seeing my own perspective change as well.
Now I'm thinking that the wording of this question is misleading since "win" or "win out" is associated with zero sum games.
I mean to play a non-zero sum game here, to both advance my ideas as well as absorbing the ideas of others in an attempt to improve every participant's knowledge base, including my own. In general I attempt to turn "either/or" perspectives into "and/and" perspectives. I believe the aggregate of our attempts to improve the world are what matters, not who comes in first, second, or third.
I am not looking to exclude resources or people or ideas. On the contrary, I'm looking for ways to be inclusive, to find collective intelligence in our efforts, to add to the next generation's bag of tricks for improving the human condition.
There are several metaphorical asteroids of doom headed toward our collective thrivability this century. I want all of us to find and share ways of facing these threats and tipping points with hope and courage and empathy and non-zero-sumness.
Before I add comments to conversations or reply to comments here I look at the profiles and past comments of the commentators and listen to the TED talks that they like. I invite you to do the same with my web pages, TED talks or even Google results of my name. Not in order to win points, but to better understand each other so we can understand how we can support and generate support for the common good of our future on this planet.
In a spirit of the audacity of hope,
and hoping for audacity,
Peace.Jan 13 2013: I am not sure how this might be done. Some art form or creativity in any realm might help us re-envision the familiar. This would allow us to associate hope and possibility where before it was lacking.Jan 12 2013: 的聖人徘徊不知道, 看到不看, 完成而不動。Rather than be a sage on the stage I'd prefer to be a guide on the side. 在舞台上,而不是一個聖人就在身邊,我寧願是一個指導。Jan 11 2013: From chapter 47:
The sage wanders without knowing,
Sees without looking,
Accomplishes without acting.
-I Ching
Of concept, emotion, and perspective, I want creative collective change.Jan 9 2013: Well, again, Mark, nothing you're saying is convincing me that there's a lack of hope out there. If you haven't done it already, I'd start asking the people around you if they have hope for the future, you know, your family, friends, co-workers, neighbors. Ask why they have it, or why not. Maybe I'm wrong, but I'm guessing most of them will say they have hope. Personally, I have hope. The human race has done pretty well so far. We've raised ourselves from animals sleeping naked under bushes to creatures who have houses, blankets, good food in our bellies. Every problem that has come along we have conquered or are working on. Remember the Cold War? I don't think people dread nuclear annihilation the way they used to. Remember air pollution, how when you'd run in Southern California your lungs would ache from the smog? Well, maybe you didn't get that down in El Centro, but we sure did up here in Glendale. It's not like that now, it's better. Those are big problems we've solved. So I'm pretty confident things will keep getting better.
I think it's great if you keep working on specific problems, such as global warming. I've already suggested that one way to combat global warming would be to drink more milk, as milk is generally a food that is produced more locally to where people live. I tend to think hope is not such a big issue, that people still have hope.Jan 9 2013: Mark, I really appreciate the way you get back to me. But I'm still confused. You say you want to generate hope for tomorrow's child, but then you say you don't see young people without hope. So it's like you're trying to solve a problem when there's no problem there.
Jan 9 2013: The kind of hope a glowing pregnant woman has is her personal confidence that her baby is wonderful. As an uncle and great-uncle and independent study teacher with teen moms I validate that personally and one-to-one.
I want to inspire hope for the future. Activities that I participate in are not for me so much as for the future generations. The Internet offers ways to inspire hope and collaborate for the greater good. Hope to me is that emotion that gives me the sense that working for the future is worthwhile. I see it in (grandfather) James Hansen's confident optimism, when facing David Letterman saying, "We're screwed, right?"Jan 9 2013: I hope we don't kill ourselves by harming our environment. A lot of people often say we need to "save the planet", in my eyes it is not the planet that needs saving. "save humanity" sounds better. If the human race became extinct I'm sure that our planet would be better off.
I can imagine the human race ending by either war or climate change.
But I still have hope! :)
Jan 9 2013: I hope so too. (-that we don't kill ourselves) With "save the planet" language I think we just needed a short way to say, "Let's save the planetary conditions in this century that allow our niche in the biosphere to remain viable." But you're right about war too. We are more than capable of committing species suicide with our own weapons technology.
And you still have hope. Yes! I want some version of that hope to go viral among 7 billion while at the same time we face the responsibility of cooperating for the greater good of all.
I'm like, hey Tesla, that's a cool gizmo there, that dynamo, that electricity generator thing. Now can we create something like that to charge up everyone so we all play an Olympic-like non-zero sum game where everyone wins big time? Can we? Why not?
Jan 11 2013: Yeah I think your right about "save the planet" :).
I do still have hope. But a part of me believes something drastic may happen before more people "wake up" and start realizing that what we are doing to our planet is real. I don't think a lot of people take climate change seriously. I still have many changes myself that I need to make with "saving the planet".
But hope starts with people like us who are aware of what's going on, and people here on Ted who have wonderful ideas. I plan on spreading hope and awareness, especially when I have children. I may even become a elementary teacher (I'm in the process of deciding) and right there is a great opportunity for me to take a bit responsibility for our mother earth and help the children appreciate our environment.
Jan 12 2013: Re "wake up"
Haley Goranson
Hope may not have been the right word for this question. You're right, awareness has to come first. For some of us, perhaps the time is right to act collectively on the hope we have, validating each other's efforts.
In this century, we are more sensitized...
"...more able to think, feel, and respond together..." -Richard TarnasJan 8 2013: Mark, I'm still missing your response. You say you want to offer hope to the younger generation. But I haven't heard the younger generation express a lack of hope. So why do you feel you need to offer them hope if they haven't expressed a lack of hope?
Jan 9 2013: I'm sorry you missed my response. I'm not trying to be confusing. Perhaps I should have said I want us to generate hope for tomorrow's child by saving the future. Depending on who you listen to, we are facing many challenges to our continued existence and comfort this century. Economical challenges, peace-keeping challenges, environmental challenges, resource challenges, they all are there to ponder. As we think seriously about addressing these issues, especially planetary dangerous ones, we need some kind of guts, some kind of heart strength, some kind of espirit de corps for our human family and its success. I'm not worried about some specific individuals. That may be the confusing part. I am concerned with everybody everywhere. I don't mean to say that I want this because I see young people without hope. That's not it. I see a looming need for greater and greater cooperation and hope and empathy. Maybe there are a hundred different words that are synonyms for this concept. I might have used "heart," for example. I am trying to find ways to bring people with different ways of looking at the world together into a collective supportive cause. Us. Humanity. The future of the inhabitants of this planet.Jan 8 2013: When they give up hope.
I don't think they will but hope is false. It is a false concept.
If one is hopeless then the only thing that will work is action.
If one has hope, nothing gets done unless one lets go of hope and takes action.
Nothing is done or accomplished by hope or hoping.
Don't' worry, something good will happen.
If it doesn't, don't worry,
something bad will happen.
Will you be all right? Are you all right?
Knowing is not the same as hope. Hope is not knowing, and I believe one should come to know what it is they "believe in".
Once they come to know it, do they trust it? There is no sense in believing or supposedly "knowing something" and not trusting in it.
If one does trust it, then does one worry about it?
Well, no, they shouldn't if they trust it.
People become free when they let go of hope. Disillusionment is only the last allusion.
However, nothing being perfect,
he said, "I don't believe in hope.'
"Well, I guess there's hope in that!"
Jan 9 2013: I know exactly what you mean. Maybe I need a different word. I know that hope can be a crutch or an excuse. A state of hopelessness doesn't seem particularly useful either. Does it? Hope. I guess I was thinking of it as the opposite of apathy. Can hope be the belief that improvement is possible and therefore worth trying? If I say I will do what I can and hope for the best, it seems that the doing is more important than the hoping. Yet I feel that without that hope I would soon stop trying. Maybe what I mean is more accurately called uplifting motivation or something like that. Maybe the word heart fits in that sense. Take heart. Have hope. They both sound like "Let's go for it" to me.
There's another problem. It's not the "go for it" part I'm interested in. I'm interested in the "Let's" part. "Let's" seems to have the brand of hope that I am considering. Every time I hear or say "Let's" or "we" in the context of doing something positive together with others, the collective term seems to have a quality of hope about it. Maybe that's just me.Jan 8 2013: Mark, your reply below didn't seem to reply to my question. You posed a question as to what hope there is for children and pregnant women. To me, the implication is that children and pregnant women feel hopeless. Otherwise, why would you pose the question? But as I said below, I've never met any child or pregnant woman who said they feel hopeless. But it seems as though you have the perception they feel hopeless, so I wonder what you base it on. Have you met children, or pregnant women, who say they feel hopeless? Where did you meet them? What did they say, and what did you say back?
I wonder if you feel hopeless, and you're just projecting that onto children and pregnant women? Am I right, do you feel hopeless?
Jan 8 2013: Who am I talking about? Humanity at large, especially the very young. I'm 55 so I'm talking about younger people in general. Hope was offered to my generation in the form of individual prosperity and the promise of the good life. We are 7 billion now and there are very real existential threats to the future of humanity. I would like to find and offer ideas and inspiration toward a more cooperative and empathic world. We cannot prosper as individuals without prospering as a self-integrated whole. That is the kind of hope I wish for us, collectively, to offer to the youngest generation, collectively. Bucky Fuller used to say either war is outmoded or humanity is. I think war is outmoded and for the sake of hopeful happy babies and new mothers everywhere, 21st century must offer something different than the 20th.
W. Ying

Full story here from ZeroHedge.
As economists such as William Black and James Galbraith have repeatedly said, we cannot solve the economic crisis unless we throw the criminals who committed fraud in jail.
And Nobel prize winning economist George Akerlof has demonstrated that failure to punish white collar criminals – and instead bailing them out- creates incentives for more economic crimes and further destruction of the economy in the future. See this, this and this. (more…)

FRIDAY NIGHTS AT NOMA: EDIBLE BOOK DAYFriday, April 5 from 5 to 9 p.m. April 5, 2013
This week's Friday Nights at NOMA, we're celebrating Edible Book Day! Plus, Joshua Mann Pailet will be discussing his photographs currently on view in the Great Hall. See what's on the schedule:
- 5-8 p.m.: Art Activity with Young Audiences
- 5-7 p.m.: Edible Book Day cake competition
- 6 p.m.: Artist Perspective with Joshua Mann Pailet
- 5:30-8:30 p.m.: Music by Daria Dzurik and the Hip Drops
- 7 p.m.: "Cakes, Tips and Tricks" demonstration by Brett Gauthier, Executive Pastry Chef for the Ralph Brennan Restaurant Group
About Edible Book Day
NOMA has invited local organizations, community groups, and individuals to enter this cake decorating contest, which honors an internationally celebrated festival. Competitors will bake and decorate cakes that are inspired by a book, incorporate the text of a book into the decoration, or look like a book. Cakes will be brought to NOMA to be viewed by the public and judged by a panel of local celebrities. There is no fee to enter or to attend this event. It is included with museum admission. At 7 p.m. Ralph Brennan's Executive Pastry Chef, Brett Gauthier, will present a cake "tips and tricks" demonstration in Café NOMA, from filling, glazing and decorating cakes to making homemade buttercream and ganache. Following the program we will cut and sample a cake created by Chef Brett for Edible Book Day.
About Joshua Mann Pailet
Joshua Mann Pailet was born in New Orleans in 1950 and raised in Baton Rouge, LA. He graduated from Rice University in 1972 and 1973 with a B.A. in Economics and a B.S. in Accounting. In 1973 Pailet founded A Gallery for Fine Photography to create a venue to collect, display and sell 19th and 20th Century photographs. He taught at Louisiana State University (Spring 1977).
About Daria Dzurik & the Hip Drops
Most frequently compared to Lily Allen, or a blend of No Doubt colliding with Regina Spektor, Daria & The Hip Drops win over listeners with every performance and recording. The group got their start recording Daria's first solo album "Calliope" in 2010, and has continued to grow under the name of the full band, Daria & The Hip Drops, consisting of teamwork between singer, steelpannist, and keyboardist Daria Dzurik and producer Graham Robinson, and a collaboration of other artists that provide backing grooves. Although the group has its roots in upbeat indie pop and rock, influences are wide with steel drums and Caribbean influences, heavy funk bass lines,and the occasional electro-synth sample. Artists and bands like Santigold, The Talking Heads, and Toots & The Maytals have present influences in the band's sound, as well as the music and culture from the southeast region of the United States, from New Orleans, where the band is based, to Miami and all throughout the gulf coast. The HipDrops are a flexible machine that can go from a duo to a backing band of five with a flash mob of dancers at live performances. The band derived its name from a song and dance "Hip Drop" by The Explosions, a New Orleans funk band from the 1960s.

EUR-USD fell to 1.1133 from 1.1235, a two-week low after the U.S. trade data. A portion of the euro's losses came from Draghi's press conference, with the ECB head saying inflation will take longer to ramp up, and that new downside risks have emerged. Draghi said the Bank will take measures to prove it has still room to act, by extending the pool of eligible assets for the QE program by raising the issue share limit for QE. In itself, that ...

Pronounced: DOX-oh-ROO-bi-sin
Classification: Anthracycline
Doxorubicin interferes with the growth of cancer cells and slows their spread in the body by inhibiting DNA synthesis and causing the production of harmful free radicals.
Doxorubicin is given through intravenous (into a vein) infusion or injection. It can be given alone or with other drugs. The dosage and schedule is determined by the person's size, type of cancer, and mode of administration. This medication is red and may cause your urine to be red or orange for about 48 hours after the treatment. If this continues or you have pain or burning with urination, notify your doctor or nurse.
Even when carefully and correctly administered by trained personnel, this drug may cause feeling of burning and pain. There is a risk that this drug may leak out of the vein at the injection site, resulting in tissue damage that can be severe. If the area of injection becomes red, swollen, or painful at anytime during or after the injection, notify your doctor or nurse immediately. Do not apply anything to the site unless instructed by your doctor or nurse.
There are a number of things you can do to manage the side effects of Doxorubicin. Talk to your doctor or nurse about these recommendations. They can help you decide what will work best for you. These are some of the most common side effects:
White blood cells (WBC) are important for fighting infection. While receiving treatment, your WBC count can drop, putting you at a higher risk of getting an infection. You should let your doctor or nurse know right away if you have a fever (temperature greater than 100.4 F), sore throat or cold, shortness of breath, cough, burning with urination, or a sore that doesn't heal.
Tips to preventing infection:
For more suggestions, read the Neutropenia Tip Sheet.
Your red blood cells are responsible for carrying oxygen to the tissues in your body. When the red cell count is low, you may feel tired or weak. You should let your doctor or nurse know if you experience any shortness of breath, difficulty breathing or pain in your chest. If the count gets too low, you may receive a blood transfusion. Read the anemia tip sheet for more information.
Platelets help your blood clot, so when the count is low you are at a higher risk of bleeding. Let your doctor or nurse know if you have any excess bruising or bleeding, including nosebleeds, bleeding gums or blood in your urine or stool. If your platelet count becomes too low, you may receive a transfusion of platelets.
Read the thrombocytopenia tip sheet for more information.
Take anti-nausea medications as prescribed. If you continue to have nausea or vomiting, notify your doctor or nurse so they can help you manage this side effect. In addition, dietary changes may help. Avoid things that may worsen the symptoms, such as heavy or greasy/fatty, spicy or acidic foods (lemons, tomatoes, oranges). Try antacids, (e.g. milk of magnesia, calcium tablets such as Tums), saltines, or ginger ale to lessen symptoms. Read the Nausea & Vomiting Tip Sheet for more suggestions.
Call your doctor or nurse if you are unable to keep fluids down for more than 12 hours or if you feel lightheaded or dizzy at any time.
Certain cancer treatments can cause sores or soreness in your mouth and/or throat. Notify your doctor or nurse if your mouth, tongue, inside of your cheek or throat becomes white, ulcerated or painful. Performing regular mouth care can help prevent or manage mouth sores. If mouth sores become painful, your doctor or nurse can recommend a pain reliever.
Read the mouth ulcer tip sheet for more information.
Your fingernails/toenails may become dark, brittle or fall off. You may notice dry skin or changes in the color or tone of your skin. Your skin will be more sensitive to the sun, which can result in severe sunburn or rash. Sun sensitivity can last even after chemotherapy is completed. Avoid the sun between 10-2pm, when it is strongest. Wear sunscreen (at least SPF 15) everyday; wear sunglasses and long sleeves/pants to protect your skin. Keep your fingernails and toenails clean and dry. You may use nail polish, but do not wear fake nails. Notify your doctor or nurse if any nails fall off. For more suggestions, read the Nail and Skin Care Tip Sheet.
This medication can also cause a "radiation recall". This is redness, swelling or blistering of the skin in an area that was previously treated (even years ago) with radiation. The goal of "treatment" for radiation recall is to manage the symptoms until it heals. Topical steroids or anti-inflammatory agents or cool compresses may help. Avoid sun exposure and tight fitting clothes that would rub on the area.
Your hair may become thin, brittle, or may fall out. This typically begins two to three weeks after treatment starts. This hair loss can be all body hair, including pubic, underarm, legs/arms, eyelashes, and nose hairs. The use of scarves, wigs, hats and hairpieces may help. Hair generally starts to regrow soon after treatment is completed. Remember your hair helps keep you warm in cold weather, so a hat is particularly important in cold weather or to protect you from the sun. Read more on alopecia.
In rare cases, the heart muscle is weakened on this medication. It is important that you report immediately to your doctor or nurse any shortness of breath, cough, ankle swelling, chest pain, rapid or irregular heartbeats. Your doctor may order tests to check your heart function prior to receiving this drug or to evaluate your heart when symptoms develop.
Other less common side effects that have been reported include: decreased appetite, smell and taste changes, diarrhea and sexual/reproductive changes.

We currently stock a variety of double-sided tapes including ones on carriers such as polyester, polypropylene and PVC film; tissue; crepe and flatback paper; polyethylene foam; cloth and scrim; and foamed and solid acrylic polymers. You can also choose from tape coated with rubber or acrylic adhesive.
And that is why we are offering our Double-Sided Tape Test Pack which will allow you to test 12 different varieties of double-sided tape at a reasonable price. We've also labeled each roll with the product number for easy reference.
Offers the widest range of application flexibility available. Exhibits excellent processing performance whether manually or automatically applied. Has superior tensile strength, adhesion properties and holding force which ensures consistent, reliable seals. Hot melt adhesive will bond faster to a surface which is referred to as quick-grab or quick-stick. It typically has higher tack (will feel stickier to the touch), but is also softer. It has lower heat resistance, shear resistance, and sometimes UV resistance than an acrylic adhesive. NOTE: it is called hot melt because the adhesive is applied hot by the manufacturer and then hardens as it cools (you do not need to apply heat to the tape yourself).
Properties are similar to that of hot melt rubber, but natural rubber often holds where other adhesives won't (recycled fibers, dust, cold, heat and heavy loads). It provides good overall adhesion and moisture resistance.
Offer excellent performance, especially for applications in temperatures less than 40°F and greater then 120°F. It provides excellent clarity, has high shear strength, is usually more permanent/durable even when exposed to moisture, and it ages well over extended periods in fluorescent and sunlight. Since it remains clear for the life of the application and does not yellow over time it is ideal for applications such as sealing white cartons. While it has good initial adhesion it does take 24-48 hours to cure and to achieve its maximum bond strength (has gradual adhesion buildup). Another difference between hot melt rubber and acrylic adhesive is if you fold tape over making the two adhesive sides touch the acrylic adhesive will remain attached to the carrier (e.g. paper, film) while a hot melt adhesive will stick to itself and pull off of the carrier. It is the best choice for clarity, UV resistance and aging characteristics.
Is great for extreme temperature applications since silicone adhesive can work in continuous operating temperatures from -100°F to 500°F. They also exhibit good chemical resistance, retain electrical properties, and remove cleanly with little or no residue.
Zinc oxide based adhesive formula is a skin-friendly adhesive which is commonly used on sports medicine tapes.

(AP) - Kentucky coach John Calipari promises that Alex Poythress will improve.
In fact, he's taking a personal interest to ensure the freshman's growth.
One of the Wildcats' four highly touted rookies, Poythress is struggling. Despite being Kentucky's second-leading scorer and rebounder, inconsistency has raised concerns about his commitment.
Poythress didn't start in Saturday's 80-77 loss to rival Louisville and had just seven points and five rebounds in a season-low 15 minutes. Calipari hinted Monday that Poythress might not play in Wednesday's non-conference home game against Eastern Michigan unless he improves.
The coach is trying to avoid that scenario through one-on-one sessions with Poythress, aiming to correct flaws in his game and motivate the soft-spoken forward. Calipari's personal instruction has already helped guard Ryan Harrow rejoin the starting lineup for Kentucky (8-4).
"He just has to change his habits just like Ryan (Harrow) had to," Calipari said. "The minute he changes his habits, the minute he changes his mentality of how he wants to play and how he needs to play, he will be fine. I will say in two weeks, when you see him play in two weeks, you will say you are slowly seeing the change.
"I don't know if it will be this week because I will only have three workouts with him, but by the next game, you will start to see a difference and say, 'Wow, is he playing different.' I am not doing anything but making him do stuff and change his habits and making him think differently about how you should play the game."
Nerlens Noel, Archie Goodwin, Willie Cauley-Stein and Poythress arrived at Kentucky this season facing high expectations of duplicating the success of recent rookie classes, especially last year's group that earned the Wildcats' eighth national title. Some NBA scouting blogs even projected the 6-foot-7, 239-pound Poythress as a potential first-round draft pick because of his strength and ability to play both forward spots.
Poythress, averaging 13.8 points and 6.4 rebounds per game this season, has shown that potential in spots.
Since scoring 20 or more points in four of his first five contests - including 20 against Duke - Poythress' highest total was 16 against Samford five games ago. His rebounding has held steady, though Calipari believes he's capable of grabbing more on the offensive end.
The coach attributes that weakness to Poythress' lack of focus that has shown in his periodic failure to get back on defense or battle for rebounds. Calipari has also questioned his fitness.
Three weeks of "Camp Cal," Calipari's boot camp-style conditioning program, has improved the stamina of Kentucky players. But in working exclusively with Poythress as Calipari did with players as an NBA head coach, he hopes to address specific weaknesses and motivate him to play every game as well as he did against Duke.
"The question is, why is it your mentality that that is OK?" to jog back or stand up, Calipari said. "Where did you come up with that that it's OK to be that way? If you are capable of doing this all the time, why would you not do it? That is the whole mentality that you have to change. It just takes time."
Calipari said he has seen progress after spending 38 minutes on Sunday and 27 Monday working with Poythress on areas such as body positioning and how and where he catches the ball. Sprints were used as a penalty to improve Poythress' free throw shooting after he went 2-for-6 against the Cardinals.
That threat yielded quick results as Poythress made every free throw Monday and avoided his least favorite exercise. He was not available for interviews.
"He's still not ready to play a game," Calipari said. "We have time before our next game, and we'll see where he goes."
Anyone needing proof that Calipari's personal instruction works can just ask Harrow.
A month after having to work his way back into the Wildcats' rotation following a four-game absence because of illness and a family matter back in Georgia, Harrow has started the past three games at point guard and scored 40 points over the past two. Besides improving his conditioning at Camp Cal, Harrow said he has evolved from laid-back jokester to being more serious about his role.
He believes Poythress will follow suit.
"Alex cares," Harrow said. "He gets mad when coach talks to him, he gets mad when we talk to him. He's just a different guy that doesn't show much emotion. I was like that.
"But you can't be out there just getting by. It's not just Alex that has to change. We all do."
Though the Wildcats' record falls below what was expected from them at this point, Cauley-Stein has seen signs of improvement that he believes will serve Kentucky well in a short time. Every player has had to mature in his own way and at his own pace, and he's confident that Poythress will take similar steps forward.
"We all have seen the beastly Alex, and we want him to come out of the shell that he's in and play like he knows how to," Cauley-Stein said. "It could be a slow process, but as a team, we've just got to stay with him and keep him positive."

Café Local
The restaurant has a modern open style with a eye for detail reflected in the choice of the decor, table-runners, coaster, cutlery, music, chairs and the like. The dining quality is enhanced by the decor and environment.
The menu is a carefully selected range of world cuisine with, of course, a Belgian touch here and there with typical dishes like "Vlaamse stoofkarbonaden" - a beefstew slowly simmered in dark beer - or "Koninginnehapje" literal meaning a 'Queens snack' - chicken with bechamel and mushrooms. Both of course served with belgian fries - do not let yourself be fooled there is no such thing as "French" Fries, it is their friendly northern neighbour that invented fries and perfected the art of double frying to get the mouth watering crispy flavor. No Belgian choice would be complete without some chocolate options like our homemade 'Chocomousse' or an all time favorite "Dame Blanche" ice cream dessert.
We also have a refined Asian selection, and a few Indonesian classics, own made Italian pasta and pizzas, wonderful soups and salads. Whether you want a snack or a more refined choice or just some comfort food, and if it is not on the menu, ask we might be able to accommodate (availability of ingredients allowing).
But it is also about the centuries' old Burgundian way of living in Belgium with the enjoyment of different food from different cultures.
But it is not just about the food. Wonderful food also deserves good presentation on nice plates and bowls, and what is more it doesn't have to be all that expensive,
And if a simple nasi goreng coming out of the kitchen and looks like a picture and tastes like heaven and people say "aahh beautiful " we know we are on the right track.
