This newcomer in the ski touring segment features the exclusive TYROLIA Alpine Touring (AT) Toe which can be easily adjusted to alpine and touring boot
AAAmbition Tech
The brand new TYROLIA AAAmbition Alpine Touring binding is the perfect companion for all Alpine Touring Aficionados so that no terrain remains unattainable. We included every attribute of our high-performance alpine ski bindings in this brand new Alpine Touring binding.
A 65mm wide mechanical AFS gliding element secures constant release values
also with rubber soles. In combination with two rollers this binding provides superior safety features with the rapid and exact boot re-centering that skiers expect from TYROLIA. As a result of its harmonious design, the TYROLIA AAAmbition has a wider contact area which improves stability and provides a secure foundation for every skiing situation. Furthermore, its pivot is efficiently positioned right below the ski boot tip to ensure perfect force transmission and a tilt up to 90 degree.
Additionally the AAAmbition features a unique light-weight telescopic tube which
offers an easy adjustment opportunity to different boot sole lengths. Thus, with only one binding model it is possible to cover the entire range of different sole lengths – from 260 mm up to 350 mm.
Furthermore, with the setting of the telescopic tube and through the compact mounting, perfect binding positioning on your skis is improved and mid-point deviation is avoided.
The newly designed climbing aid is positioned as close as possible to the Alpine Touring (AT) Heel. This provides better walking balance and effortless climbing in all situations. The low stand height of 38 mm improves stability and offers a confident stance.
With four different climbing aid positions (climbing in a 0°, 5°, 10° or 15° position) it is possible to adapt on different terrains without stepping out of the binding.
It does not matter if it is a walk through flat terrain or a steep slope up to the summit. Simply use the ski pole in order to change the climbing aid position and also to lock for the downhill ride.
Additional crampons are available as spare parts in widths of 90 mm, 105 mm and 120 mm,and provide safe climbing and a secure stand in any situation.
Considering the different ski widths, the TYROLIA AAAmbition comes without brakes. This gives you the opportunity to either choose the perfect fitting brake out of three different widths (85 mm/95 mm/105 mm/125 mm) or simply to ride and hike without brakes using appropriate powder straps.
The TYROLIA approved Freeflex System, which interacts with the AT Toe, the telescopic tube and the AT Heel, offers natural dynamics, excellent downhill performance and therefore a supreme ski touring experience.
In order to offer ambitious sportsmen an opportunity to widen their horizons, the TYROLIA AAAmbition is also demo and rental suitable.
Combined with a spare demo track, this brand new TYROLIA binding can be tested and shown to a broad audience.
Only two easy adjustments (one on the telescopic tube and one on the demo track) are required to fit to different boot lengths without extra drilling.
To sum up: The new TYROLIA AAAmbition Alpine Touring binding is what every ski touring fanatic was looking for.
On one hand it offers freedom and individual adjustment possibilities and on the other hand it provides the premium high-end performance that is expected from TYROLIA. The solid, light-weight construction and its maximum functionality enhances the ultimate mountain experience for ambitioned climbers as well as for touring newbies.

Infielder Greg Roberts commits to play baseball at ETSU
Thursday, July 17, 2003JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (July 17, 2003) - East Tennessee State added to next season's recruiting class as infielder Greg Roberts (Douglas, Ga.) will transfer from South Georgia Community College to play for the Bucs beginning in 2004. He will have three years of eligibility remaining at ETSU. Roberts batted .303 last season with two home runs, 25 RBI and 10 stolen bases for the Tigers and was selected to the Georgia Junior College All-State Team. He was also an all-state pick in high school, as he batted .353 with 25 RBI and 19 stolen bases during his senior season at Coffee High School. "We are very pleased this outstanding ballplayer has decided to continue his education and baseball career at East Tennessee State," said Buccaneer head coach Tony Skole. "What attracted us to Greg was the fire and intensity with which he plays the game. He plays very fast and is very aggressive. Greg will provide a much-needed spark to our offense and was the top-rated defensive third baseman in all of the Georgia junior colleges."

http://www.gbnreport.com/breakingdownthedraft.htmlHave been catching up on some game tape over the past few days. Ive finished my reports and grades on Tennessee, host to two of the highest upside receivers in the 2013 class.
Justin Hunter scored 7 touchdowns with a 25.9 yards per reception as a freshman on 2010. He started off the 2011 campaign hotter than any receiver in the nation prior to tearing his ACL in week against Florida. Tough break for such a talented athlete and his return to the field in 2012 was one of the biggest question marks that scouts were out to answer. Justin Hunter has a slight frame, going about 200 pounds and standing 64. Long arms and legs with big hands. I dont expect him to add weight/bulk at the next level, but an NFL weight training program will help his strength and presence on the field enough, so I dont see that being an issue. Hunter can explode off the line with a powerful first 2-3 steps. He is further along than most prospects when it comes to route running. Hes very aware that an effective press corner could out-muscle him any day, thus he has perfected the release with strong jab steps to gain initial separation. Once in the clear at the point of attack, Hunter will be most corners up the field. He tracks the ball very well and attacking the football with body control and effective timing has been a strength of his since his freshman season. If he had a more accurate quarterback at Tennessee, he would have been putting up far better numbers.
Hunters grade will take a hit in a few areas though. He is not effective after the catch. He is not a guy with a lot of wiggle and he shies from contact. He is a competitive athlete that will go after the ball over the middle, but he rarely fights to break tackles. In addition, Hunter is still raw. Not a lot of game experience in comparison to other prospects. His catching technique varies play-to-play, and he doesnt break back to the ball when running return routes. Hunter is one of the top deep threats in this class, but he wont offer much as a short and intermediate receiver. I can see him having a similar impact as former Volunteers receiver Robert Meachem has had. Hell make some coaches drool, but it will be up to him to become a more complete player through hard work.
The player that jumps out to me the most is Cordarelle Patterson. He spent one year at Tennessee after a couple years in junior college. If there is one receiver capable of breaking in to the top 10, it is Patterson. He possesses top tier physical ability across the board. He is a strong, well developed 63/208 pounder that shows the speed/acceleration/agility that no other receiver has in this class. Tough as nails over the middle and with the ball in his hand. He can run by anybody, shake out of tackles, and lower his shoulder to push the pile. Complete package after the catch. Patterson showed flashes of top-tier route running. The ability is there.
At first glance, I was under the impression that Patterson took plays off and seemed rather lackadaisical at times. That could very well be the case, but I believe he may have been overused for the Volunteers. He was used on kick returns and in the rushing game in addition to a lot of motion before the snap, fake reverses, and deep passing routes. His speed and gamebreaking ability was the center of attention of most opposing defenses. Tennessee was very aware of that and sent him all over the field in an effort to divert defenders on plays where he was not given the ball. Patterson is a high effort player though. He tries hard and rarely leaves a yard out on the field. I look at teams in the top 10, and I notice a few that need a Patterson type on their offense. He plays a game similar to Percy Harvin but has more size and more agility. That is a scary combination if he is put in to the right scheme. Teams like the Jaguars (#2), Bills (#8), and Jets (#9) are all starving for playmakers. Patterson may not be a media-darling right now, but turn the tape on and watch how big of an impact he can have.

"Gothic Kitty" creator Holly Crawford has been sentenced to six months of house arrest for using a 14-gauge needle to pierce the ears, necks and tails of three kittens and then attempting to sell the maimed felines over the Internet. The 35-year-old Pennsylvania woman was further ordered to close her dog grooming business for at least two years. Despite opposition from concerned citizens, the judge ruled in favor of allowing Crawford to maintain guardianship over her other pets, including a dog, three cats and three snakes.
Crawford was initially charged after a tip led humane investigators and the state police to her home on December 17, 2008. Investigators found and seized three kittens wearing heavy piercing jewelry on their ears, necks and tails. At least one of the kittens had a thick elastic band wrapped around his tail to prevent blood flow, as a means of docking it.
Despite arguments that Crawford used sterile needles and surgical soap when piercing the kittens, a Luzerne County jury found her guilty of animal cruelty. Helping to seal the conviction was expert testimony from the ASPCA's leading forensics veterinarian, Dr. Melinda Merck, who testified that the kittens had been maimed and disfigured, had their hearing damaged, and could have died.
"I was very happy to work with the Luzerne County District Attorney's Office on this case of abuse," says Dr. Merck. "The idea of mutilating animals in such a way for profit is appalling, I am glad justice was served."
If you know of an animal who is being hurt, please report it. To report animal cruelty in New York City, call the ASPCA's tip line at (877) THE-ASPCA. Visit our Report Cruelty FAQ to learn how to report cruelty elsewhere.

any one testing 1 rod against another will use the proper heat range for optimum results for that particular rod, 1 size fits all will not work here
7018x1/8" @ 125 amps for flat is right on
6011 will be too hot
7014 will be cold
6013 will be hot
using the same amperage will not give accurate results
my 2 cents worth

Jeeeze, thats what I was thinking!! Thanks you guys!! Glad some people agree with me, people on WW and on the video itself all asked why I used different amperages, I always thought different rods used different amperages. Sometimes you get lucky tho and have exceptions, like 3/32 7018 and 1/8" 6010 run about the same. Im thinking of doing a part two all at the same amperage just because people seem to want to see it, but idk...
My main concern would be the undercut. When I went to get the 7014 and the 6013 set up, I'd crank up the welder in increments until I got undercut, and then backed it down until that went away... Atleast, thats how I usually set myself up...

Every rod based on type and size has a given parameter, low amperage to high amperage. Your amperage settings should be set within those parameters for whatever rod you're using based on base metal thickness, type of joint, and weld position. Using 1/8th" 7018 as an example to state 1/8" 7018 is "flat on at 125 amps" is wrong when the high end of most brands is in the 150 amp range and the low end as low as 90 amps.Miller Trailblazer's ( 2 )...MillerBobcat 250...Millermatic 251's ( 2 )...Miller Syncrowave 200...Miller Syncrowave 180SD...Miller 12VS Suitcases ( 2 )...

ah, let me see, 1 divided by 8 is .125 sound familiar, a good starting point, any one who took my advice as a golden rule has no clue as to how to weld, i gave a simple comparison of different rods, each machine is different so it is impossible to nail down an amperage in print, and as why did the op use 140a for 7018 and 125a for 7014, i have no fxxx,n clue he got it back wards, 7014 is leaning towards the fast fill group

jeez when they say someones welds are like a signature they mean it. When i saw the two beads joining in the middle i was thinking Jeez i only kow of one person who welds like that. lol
As far as the test goes i think that he was perfectly correct about using diferent amperages for the different rods. Who among us would not change there parameters when going from a 1/8" 6011 to a 1/8" 7018? I see no validity in the argument of running them all at the same amperage because it's highly impractical and more or less just an ignorant practice to do so. if he were to weld everything at say 110 amps then two of the rods would be high in their parameter range while one would be at its lowest end and one would be beneath the lowest end of its range. this test one done on very thick plate which apears to be atleast 1/4" which is thicker than i think most men would weld with a single pass on a t-joint especialy without any bevel. i think it would be fair if all rods were burnt at the equivalent seting in their parameter range. (ex.- all at their max or all at their exact median amperage for that rods parameters) I think for a real world test that any Joe Blow can understand that the sledge hamer method is adequate. I personaly am not concerned with the exact PSI each weld will fail at and i dont think there was any noticible fatigue in the test except maybe int the 33+ strikes on the 7018 but regadless it still took nearly tripple the swings to break any of the other ones. If we're going to be that technical maybe he should have done it in a vacum so there was no wind resistance on the hammer or welded them in a pressure chamber purged with an inert gas to be sure that there was no possibiltity of atmospheric contamination? I mean where do you guys want to draw the line?Miller Digital Elite inferno
Miller MP-10 passive helmet
Hobart Stickmate 250/160 ac/dc
too much room for human err on this test... a hammer? should be hydraulic or charpy or some other type of controlled dt test. i didnt watch the vid cause i dont feel like wasting my bandwidth on it... jsfab has it right, you cant possibly think that running all 4 types of rods on the same amperage settings would be correct, and to say that "well, they do it on the other site" also shows a level of thought, cause EVERYTHING you read on the internet is God's honest truth......ha!!!!!
when out on structural jobs, and welding in bridge angles for roof decks, and i gotta trim a piece, i chuck up a 6010 1/8 on the same 140 amps that i run the 7018's and and "cut" the angle to length... works better and faster than a cutting torch, and then i aint carrying a danged torch out on beams with me, just 2 rods pouches...
one thing is this, if the 70xx weld broke before a 60xx weld, then something is amiss... bad metal, incorrect angle, operator dont know how to weld, that list can go on and on (my thoughts is he was way too cold to be running a iron powder rod in the first place)
but, what do i know, i only weld for money so i can support my ex-wife...welder_one

Here is my nickel
I usually weld 6010 or 6011 at 120 amp on dc+ 7014 @ 130 on dc+ and 140 on ac those are both flat. 6013 i weld 120-130 dc+ and higher for ac. 7018 is about the same as 7014 but does freeze a little faster and is easier to run vertical but still has iron powder added to the flux. 6010 & 6013 penetrate deeper but for strength a properly welded piece using 7018 should break last because of its flexibility.

Confused by Lincoln?
I'm not surprised. they have many choices within the same power range.
Why? to cater to an indivdual retailers target market.
They make units just for Lowes and then a different one just for Home Depot.
You will never see these units sold anywhere else. Are there differences in the units,Yes, some small some not so small. I would stay away from all but the ones sold by your LWS. I bought a Lincoln Pro-Mig 180, a Lowes only model for my BIL. Sold it at a loss before ever pluging it in. I was that unimpressed by the machine.
If your needs are a 120V machine. Buy a Miller 140 or Hobart 140.

Was the packing not nice enough for you, or was the machine not red enough? Making a recommendation against Lincoln when you never even tried the machine is pretty foolish statement, even for the internet.

As stated it was bought for my BIL. It was his choice and this was the unit he thought he wanted.
Unfortunately he fell victim to Lincoln's confusing model line up.
They have 7 different 175-180 class migs and only one worth considering.
Confusion and overlap of products seems to be the rage at the home of red.
If you open the box and you don't like what you see do you use it anyway and try to convince yourself that its all good?
I did not care for the gun, But I'll admit I'm spoiled I have a Miller Roughneck and a Bernard Q gun. The drive mech seemed light duty. Spec wise it lacks the low end of the Hobart 187 and falls short of the upper end of both the Miller and Hobart. It has 5 voltage taps against the Hobart's 7 and Millers infinite. It is easier to switch spool sizes on the Hobart and Miller.
Plain and simple, He just didn't like it and neither did I. I guess Its my fault I spoiled him by letting him use my MM210 for too long.
So we were unimpressed and it went to a new home and he got the cash to spend as he sees fit.

It seems to me you both went out and made a spur of the moment decision, and now are trying to somehow blame Lincoln for your lack of research. Knocking a product because you failed to properly research it is, as I said before, foolish. I have no problem accepting someone's criticism of a product, but only when it has merit.
One more thing. If it had never been used, why didn't you just take it back to Lowe's for a full refund? They offer a 30-day refund guarantee, no questions asked.

Arg I saw this thread and signed up just to reply.
About 8 years ago i bought a lincoln weld pak 100 to weld some stuff around the house. It was the model without the gas regulator and was strictly a flux core wire machine. I bought that particular model because my family at the time had a fencing business and 3 of those were used for all the welding. They were used 5 days a week and went through miles of wire for several years. That said i knew it would hold up for what i wanted to use it for.
I have since built 2 4wd trucks hundreds of exhaust systems, repaired several tractors, built a couple of antenna towers and about a thousand other things that i cant even remember.
Point is flux core welds hotter so 3/16 plate is not a problem and 1/4 is feasable so long as its not structural. And all that can be done in the driveway on a windy day with no porosity. I do weld for a living and this sort of unit would never do any of the stuff that we do there but depending on your needs this is a fantastic unit.
BTW i still have this welder and i works just as good as the day i bought it and i still use it all the time. Well untill my new Miller mig and tig welders get delivered. he he
edit: i dont have any experience with the miller equavilent but both Brands have a great reputation in the industry and would guess they are both a great unit that will run for years.
I have a Lincoln sp-135 plus in my shop. It's my sons but I use it. I take it out on small steel hull repair jobs once in a while. I use it pretty much wide open all the time on 1/8th steel with .023 wire and straight co2.
I don't care much for this machine for my stuff...it is just too weak. I wish it had more power. I am sure it would be fine on thin gauge steel tho. It also would do more with flux core of course.
For as much as it costs I believe you would be better off to save a few hundred more and get a 230v machine.
I am sure that if all you intend to use it on is thin gauge steel then you will be quite satisfied as Lincoln makes good stuff too.

Wow, this is a long time ago. I was 7 years old.
Still laughing at all these era cars and hairstyles . . .
Re: Phil Roman's Holiday Hello - 1992
Also, always a hilarious time-capsule are the appearance of over-sized Post-It notes dotting the landscape of a very-retro vending machine, complete with candy bars in classic wrapping.
I think I even see a few I used to love that don't exist anymore . . .
Got to the Cro part and it was obvious this was an inside joke, but that got the hardest laugh out of me, as the Cro work couldn't have been easy!
Lots of similar sentiments come from artists having to work on children's edutainment shows!
Re: Phil Roman's Holiday Hello - 1992
Thanks Charles, I guess that I should have read your instructions first. There was actually a guy in the very begining in the bread part that I did a double take, because he looks like a younger you. But I know that you worked at Filmation I believe back them, so its someone else.
Re: Phil Roman's Holiday Hello - 1992
Yeah, I'm old enough to remember. Those were fun days indeed. Can't help but wonder if anyone's having fun today?
Re: Phil Roman's Holiday Hello - 1992
Paul, I'm not in the video. Filmation closed its doors in 1989. In 1992, I was spending most of my time at DIC, which afforded me the flexibility to indulge in some independent projects I was attempting to produce. It was a particularly significant year for me as I went through an embezzlement that affected me career in many ways and really galvanized my attitude towards the corporate control of our industry.
And as Mr. Fun stated, I would agree. Even with the bad times I was experiencing, working in the industry seemed a lot more enjoyable back then. It was aggressively expanding and we were at the very beginning of the second golden age. Your drawing skills alone would get you hired. High end technology wasn't as big of a factor in production at the time. It was just beginning to emerge. Animation was still mostly pencil and paper.

Priority Visitor Observing
Priority Visitor observing will be expanded beyond Large and Long Programs (LLP) in 2015A and offered to investigators of regular semester queue programs. Investigators wishing to have their program considered for PV observing should indicate their desire to participate in the Technical Design portion of their 2015A queue proposal.
In PV observing, a visiting observer is placed at the summit for a block exceeding their program's time allocation, and elects when to carry out their program within that block. This may be when conditions are within their requirement, better than their requirement or even fail to meet their requirement. Whenever they are observing, the program is charged for the time at 100%. For example, a PI with a 40-hour allocation in the semester could ask to be the visiting observer for six nights, and execute their own program during the best 40 hours encountered. If time remains on the program after the summit time is complete, the program carries on in the regular queue with priority given by the TAC-assigned science ranking band (1 or 2). For some programs requiring the best conditions, the observatory may start them in the queue before any summit time.
A priority visitor may also make some types of decision about their program in real time that would not normally be made by a Gemini queue observer. For example, a priority visitor may decide that catching targets before they set for the semester is more important than formally meeting the original plans for image quality, or may trade off exposure time for conditions to reach the true signal/noise requirement. Note that targets not included in the proposal cannot be observed without approval, and instruments cannot be changed.
The initial test of this observing mode will apply only to Large/Long programs in 2014B. By default, LLPs will be awarded priority visitor mode – e.g. a Large/Long program which is awarded 5 nights in the semester will be expected to send an experienced observer for at least 5 nights. This program will be expanded to additional queue programs in 2015A.
The observatory may set an upper limit on the amount of additional summit time a priority visiting program will be allocated. Priority Visiting Observers will be required to meet their contact scientist at the base facility, and obtain necessary familiarization on Gemini and instrument-specific procedures ahead of the run. In 2014B they will be accompanied at the summit by two Gemini staff: a telescope operator and a trained observer (who may or may not be their contact scientist), and will be asked to take part in observing on programmes other than their own as a test of the framework laid out above. During these sessions, information will be recorded on issues likely to impact on execution of queue programmes in the longer term (where priority visiting will be expanded to be available for general queue PIs and those PIs will be expected to execute the queue across multiple instruments).
Additional notes: approved targets of opportunity may interrupt the execution of a priority visitor program. Priority visitor runs will be scheduled to avoid extended time-critical observations as far as possible.

What is cheating.....really?
In the wake of Lance Armstrong's "confession", most are calling him a cheat. A majority of the most famous and wealthy people have cut corners to get to where they are. If you get a job because you know the hiring manager over a more qualified candidate, have you cheated? If you sleep with a director to get the role...have you cheated? Yes, there are well spelled out rules in sports (among other professions) but what about other areas in life where our morality defines the rules?
Jan 18 2013: Gabe, The label cheater is a funny ole dog. Movie stars cheat and are caught all of the time but people buy their posters, books, and pay a high price to go see their movies. Stockbrokers go to prison for the use of insider trading yet Nancy Pelosi used insider information gained from a bill she was voting on in Congress and made a fortune .. but she is a honest politician. Bill Clinton cannot keep his pants up ... Kennedy was a womanizer .... and are both famous and well regarded and as funny as it may seem Bill Clinton who was impeached and lost his law license for cheating on his wife has been nominated for "Father of the Year". Now that there is funny.
So the bottom line is that we accept that politicians are corrupt, liers, and cheaters with little or no morals and movie stars are immoral and would sleep with anyone to get a part, get naked for bucks, etc ... Barry Bonds and Pete Rose in baseball scandals ... olympic scandals ... and the list goes on. It is amazing that Jim and Tammy Baker still have a following ...
So the question is why are some labeled cheats and sent to prison ... and other accepted and are "only human". Where is that line drawn and by whom.
Is this another example of the power of the media or are we really that dumb.
I wish you well. Bob.
Jan 18 2013: Well said Rob.Jan 22 2013: What is wrong is wrong, and as Mr Long has said "Honesty is the best policy". Even if a million people believe in lies it is still a lie; evil behaviour can not be justified by simply pointing to the common fault of others:
Every sector of the civilised societies are governed by peculiar laws and ethical guidelines. Any violation of such is cheating.
Gail .
Jan 18 2013: Cheating is nothing more than self-deception. Too many of us are too adept at the practice, but we deceive ourselves about our implicit participation in the practice.

Jan 18 2013: ı am between to accept and not accept... :p
Fritzie -
Jan 18 2013: You write "A majority of the most famous and wealthy people have cut corners to get where they are." Could you explain what you mean by cutting corners and then defend your claim?
- +2
I ask this, because one reason some people cheat is that they believe, typically without looking very hard for evidence, that "everybody does it."
Jan 18 2013: and u too..Jan 23 2013: Cheating is a very interesting concept. It only really exists when you get caught or admit to it. We thought forever that Lance Armstrong was the most incredible athlete ever. He inspired people and got rich doing it and if had died before all this, we would still be building statues to him. I don't advocate cheating at all...I just find it interesting whenever the man behind the curtain is revealed...ya got us.
It also depends whats at stake. People tend to not forgive independent gain, but what about national gain? We have intelligence agencies in place to sneak around and help us cheat in warfare and find antagonists. We don't line up in front of each other with muskets anymore.
Cheating takes so much skill...a skill that makes it not exist

Jan 19 2013: Honesty is the best policy. To default on honesty is to cheat.Jan 20 2013: It depends on who is judging your actions. If it's yourself, then it depends on your own moral rules. If you think you are not cheating, then you are not.
- +1
Jan 23 2013: For example: A person secretly exchanges lottery tickets with an unwitting co-worker. The stolen ticket wins! The cheater was caught making the exchange on 5 separate surveillance cameras and witnessed by numerous onlookers who unanimously swear under oath what and who they saw. The original owner of the ticket had marked it with tiny identifying letters and took a high-resolution digital picture. All these precautions were observed and verified by expert witnesses. The original owners fingerprints and DNA were all over the winning ticket. In court the defense pleaded that the cheater "did not think it was cheating" to exchange the tickets. The judge immediately dismissed the charges and the thief retired to Montego Bay and lived happily ever after.
Jan 23 2013: I don't quite understand your point. What I said is that if the cheater thought he was not cheating, then that's true for HIM, but it might not be the case for the others, as it turned out. Of course, we have to abide by the law, but we are also entitled to judge our actions with our own moral code. That's why I said it depends on who is judging a particular action.
Jan 23 2013: In a social context, which is where we all live, actions have consequences. I cannot alter the social consequences for my actions by simply announcing that I don't think my actions were what society says they were. Cheating is not subjective. There are not 7-billion definitions of cheating, there is only one per society. I think the OP is asking what that definition is for the Western world. Each personal act can be subjected to investigation as to whether it is cheating or not. That investigation is not arbitrary, it is not subjective. Do we disagree?Jan 23 2013: Yes, I think we disagree in part. Granted, cheating should not be subjective when it comes to enforcing the law, even though different judges sometimes give different sentences in comparable cases.
However, everyone is entitled to their opinion and the law shouldn't shape our moral code, rather the other way around, in my view.
There is no denying that we have to respect and obey the law, however, we also have the right to disagree with it. So that's why I think "cheating" is subjective, except when the law is applied.
Jan 23 2013: I cannot comment on the scenario where Law does not apply other than to say it sounds like anything goes, there is no right and wrong. Isn't the question moot at that point? If there are no rules there is no cheating because cheating is the breaking of rules.Jan 23 2013: I did not say that there are no rules. Actually, every country/community/family/person has their own different rules.
The point is every person has their own views, regardless of the law. In fact, I cannot think of an individual who agrees with every single law in the country.
I personally am not going to change my moral code just because the law says so, which is not to say that I won't conform to the law, though. But that's just my view, anyway.
Jan 23 2013: Well said sir. You point out that lawbreaking is not the same as cheating depending upon the definition of cheating embraced by the accused. In my example of the lottery ticket the thief can claim innocence on the charge of cheating because he/she does not believe it was cheating. Personal moral codes cannot get us to the answer the OP asks about. Cheating has to be more narrowly defined than "whatever the individual believes cheating is." I say a dishonest act is cheating. You say it is strictly in the eye of the beholder. We disagree.Jan 19 2013: Studies have shown that in order to deceive others, one has to become, or does become, more adept at deceiving themselves.
Deceiving oneself and deceiving others becomes a cyclical condition if you will, and I believe it works both ways.
If, as TEDLover said, it is self-deception (and I agree, to some degree), that can be defined as the "active misrepresention of reality to ones own mind/self." Deception is, "the active misrepresentation of reality to anothers mind/self."
I think the studies done by Robert Trivers showed that both are important if not actually necessary. They both do however become sharpened on both sides of the blade.
Otherwise, cheating is just another way of getting something, just as stealing is.
There is a point at which I don't think either is wrong or immoral.Jan 18 2013: It seems to me that your question is about your very vague phrase, "cut corners."
Generally, anytime anyone does something immoral or illegal to obtain money, promote their career, or obtain any other value, they are cheating. Also some activities, especially sports, have specific rules, and breaking those rules is cheating.
Unfortunately, cheating has become the norm in some activities, and has become accepted practice just because it is so widespread. Politics is an obvious example. One of my pet peeves is advertising; people make the most unbelievable claims for their products. Some commercials make statements which are each true when examined individually, but when they are strung together give an impression which is completely false. I think this is cheating, and people are building their careers with these methods. Even when cheating is common, it is still cheating, and people who cheat should not be praised.
Some people believe that cheating on your taxes is normal. IMO, Congress has promoted this idea by building a tax code that is immoral. Getting a tax credit put into law depends not on whether it is good for the country, but on how much you donate to election funds.
"Cutting corners" can include moral as well as immoral behavior, so it is not a good phrase to use to draw the line.Jan 18 2013: I would think the vast majority of famous and wealthy people have worked like dogs to get where they are.
Cheating I would say has an aspect of violence. Emotional or physical violence done to others, a lack of empathy, a lack of self-esteem and self-respect.
Every scenario would have to be viewed individually to see whether cheating occurred. And the degree of harm would have to be considered as well. In the scenario where you get a job because of knowing someone, we still must assume that you are capable of doing the job. We would also assume that you didn't know who else was competing for the job, whether they were better than you or not. With the actress, we still know that she must be capable of playing the role. So if these are cheats, they are relatively minor. In fact, it's hard for me to believe that whoever would hire these people would choose the person who can't do the job as well, because how well they do the job determines the success of the business, and reflects back on who hired them. I'm more inclined to think that if two people are equal, the hiring manager might choose the person he or she knows, and the same with the actress.Jan 18 2013: ı wish ı understood u :(
