I have some numbers output from Matlab and I want to show them as tables in LaTeX. The numbers are in the form
0.14190949656253118000 or
0.01234e-3 and I want to show them in scientific notation. How can I find/write, a macro that is called like
\scn{0.14190949656253118000} or
\scn{0.01234e-3} and results in
$1.41x10^{-1}$ or
$1.23x10^{-5}$. Note that the number of digits after the decimal points should be configable.

Working from Boris' answer:
However, for your particular number, siunitx versions lower than 2.4n return a "number too big" error unless you round the number off (as you had originally indicated, but I forgot about). That prompted me to write the following MATLAB function that will print the LaTeX code for your numbers to whatever precision you want:
function s=pp(x,n) % pretty-print a value in scientific notation % usage: s=pp(x,n) % where: x a floating-point value % n is the number of decimal places desired % s is the string representation of x with n decimal places, and % exponent k exponent=floor(log10(abs(x))); %to accomodate for negative values mantissa=x/(10^exponent); s=sprintf('$%*.*f \\times 10^{%d}$',n+3,n,mantissa,exponent); % returns something like '$1.42 \times 10^{-1}$'
>> s1=pp(0.14190949656253118000,2) s1 = $1.42 \times 10^{-1}$ >> s2=pp(0.01234e-3,3) s2 = $1.234 \times 10^{-5}$
But again, any recent version of siunitx and Boris' answer will work fine for rounded numbers, and siunitx 2.4n will work fine even without rounding.

With vibrant colors and varying sizes of molded glass, the sculpture is a visual display of exploration and innovation.
Jim Bowman, a local artist who has been developing expressions in glass since 1978, designed the glass sculpture for the new school addition.

Our department are replacing the PCs that are over 3 years old. However, despite the age of the PCs, they're all similarly spec'd, so a 3 year old PC is still the same similar spec as a 1 year old PC. Thus half the people in the department will be getting new higher spec'd PCs with dual monitors and the other half will still be running single monitor older PCs.
I don't believe that it makes sense to replace only half the department. I'd love to hear from other IT managers and procurement officers on this issue.
My reasoning for it not making sense is:
- while the newer half equipment isn't old, it's the same or similar to the older equipment. Some waste there in replacing PCs that aren't deficient.
- it creates envy in the office. If your colleague has dual monitors and you don't, how will you feel?
Opinions from anyone who has faced similar issues?
I realise this is subjective but I can't find too many answers.

I sometimes find myself writing something like this:
XXX is a project I admire and am very interested in.
The "I
<verb> and am
<something>" feels strange here. It somehow sounds more natural in the 3rd person "he admires and is very interested in".
Am I just imagining - is it OK to use this construct, or should I use something completely else?

Listen to the words and learn about the lives of countless slaves and ex-slaves, telling about their forced journey from Africa to the United States, their work in the fields and houses of their owners, and their passion for freedom.

I need to run approx, a package proxy for Debian / Ubuntu packages, on an OpenSuSE box.
Until now, I converted the installation package from
.deb to
.rpm using
alien. Installing the resulting
.rpm gave me the
approx binary in
Under Debian,
approx is started using
inetd. OpenSuSE seems to prefer
xinetd. So, in YaST2's xinetd setup, I created a new entry using
- service name: "approx" (I also tried "9999", since I assume this is where the mapping from service names to port numbers takes place -- this name should match the port description in /etc/services, right?)
- type:
- protocol:
- user:
- service:
However, no matter what status I assign the entry, the xinetd configuration jumps to "deactivated" as soon as I click "OK", and I can't get any reaction from the system when contacting it on port 9999.
So, at first, is my use of the xinetd configuration correct or do I understand something wrong there?
Second, is the automatic deactivation of the xinetd config panel in YaST2 a software or user error?

Yes. You should follow the normal guidelines for oiling your chain. If it is squeaking, you know you've left it too long. Do the following every two or three weeks:
Although wear and tear does not affect a single speed drivetrain perfomance to the extent it does a geared drivetrain, a little maintenance will provide your single speed with an even longer lifespan.

Customer Reviews:
Rated 4.3 out of 5�by 134 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5�by Joey43 Velcro is nice, lacing is a pain I paid about $40 for the brace. Once it is on,it feels very supportive, but taking it off required undoing half of the laces to get it over my high instep. The medical field offers one that replaces the laces with stretch fabric. I believe that one would have been a better choice for me, but if you don't have a high instep, the shock doctor might be just what you want. May 5, 2016
Rated 4 out of 5�by Bryan Great Performance but wish lasted longer Bought two of these in August for my 14 year old son. They perform great, but have had to replace both due to the wrap around straps both ripping in the same exact manner. Cannot find any warranty information about the product. I would think they should last at least a year of two. April 26, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by Kyleb Awesome... I didn't know about these always wore Mcdavid but these are much more confortable... March 1, 2016
Rated 3 out of 5�by Grizzly Bum ankle This product will secure the ankle I've been through several of these in 10+ years. My doctor put me on this brace while repairing my knee. My only recombination in the brace is that the webbing that goes around the ankle be a heavier web materal. After wearing the brace for a month this breaks. February 16, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by Ozone A++ Does not shift around in shoe. Side straps give great support for lateral movement. Comfortable fit. I'm extremely satisfied with this product! February 10, 2016
Rated 4 out of 5�by dan2674 Very Good Support This ankle brace gives me very good support for my weak ankle. A little difficult getting on and off due to laces, but when in place is very comfortable and gives great support. February 6, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by Gman44 This product allows you to get back in the game sooner! It secures the ankle so well we bought one for both ankles. February 2, 2016
Rated 4 out of 5�by Annalaurifitz Very supportive and comfotrable I would recommend this ankle brace for support after a cast. It helps me with stability while my torn ligament vontinues to heal. December 4, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5�by Laur89 This product provides excellent support Comfortable for everyday wear and fits in most shoes, not just sneakers. It is a little tedious to put on and must be hand washed. Very supportive and helps with muscle fatigue. November 3, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5�by Camden83 Great even for young teens! I have never written a review of anything, but we have had such success with this, I knew I had to tell the world! My 11 year old son had a bad ankle sprain (run over by 4 wheeler), and after coming out of his walking boot, we didn't know what to use for sports/phys ed/general running. We bought this and it felt great for him! He actually played too hard for the first few days of feeling invincible. The straps that mimic the KPE tape are the best thing since sliced bread! He said that support is what feels the best. You can see in the picture how high it comes up on the ankle and lower leg. When I researched other braces, the cost in ratio to results was the best on this specific brace. Believe me I looked and looked and looked! We had 5 long weeks of him being sidelined and we were all ready to see him running and playing again! The only downside is that because of all the ankle support and mechanisms, it's very bulky in a shoe and football cleat. It takes some getting used to and some time to adjust shoes. And because we haven't had any experience with ankle injuries or braces, we weren't sure how tight was too tight, or if it was too loose. My suggestion is to bring it to your PCP or specialist and have them help you fit it to your child. We ordered a small for him. He wears a size 6 shoe, but has slim feet/legs. Overall, if you have a child athlete, get this. October 7, 2015

I'm looking for a list of features for Madden 11 for the Wii. I understand there will be a franchise mode? Does the franchise mode incorporate all of the usual features of franchise mode (free agency, draft, trading, etc.) or is it watered down? Will there be superstar mode or something similar?
I understand that there is an arcade type mode for playing with friends that aren't as experienced but has there been any information released about the 'normal' mode?

Garlic and Chive Chickpea Flatbread RecipeGarlic and Chive Chickpea Flatbread
This simple chickpea flatbread is a popular street food in southern France where it goes by the name, socca. It's full of protein-packed chickpea flour, and herbs or seasonings can be used to create new, unique versions. When making it at home you can eat it alone as a snack, use it as wrap, top it with your favorite spread, or use it as the base for a healthy pizza.
Yield: 2, 12-inch flatbreads (4 servings)
Preparation time: 35 minutes (includes 30 minutes for batter to rest)
Baking time: 10 minutes
- 1 cup chickpea flour
- 1 cup water
- 1 tbsp + 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
- ½ tsp chopped fresh chives
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1/8 tsp garlic powder
- In a medium-size bowl whisk together the chickpea flour, water, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, chives, salt, and garlic powder. Set aside to let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours.
- About 10 minutes before you are ready to cook the flatbread, move the top rack in your oven 6 to 8 inches below the broiler. Preheat the broiler.
- Place a 12-inch skillet (cast iron works great for this flatbread) in the oven to heat for 5 minutes. Carefully remove it from the oven and add the 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Move it around to coat the skillet.
- Pour half of the batter (about ¾ cup) into the skillet. Tilt the skillet so that the batter coats the bottom of the pan evenly. Place under the broiler for 4 to 6 minutes, or until the edges begin to crisp and turn up, and the top of the flatbread begins to brown.
- Use a spatula to remove the flatbread from the skillet. Repeat the process for the second flatbread. (Only add a little more olive oil if the skillet appears dry.) Slice and serve warm.

There is a strong association between chronic hepatitis B infection and the development of heptaocellular carcinoma. People with cirrhosis also have an increased risk of liver cancer. Other possible hepatocarcinogens include aflatoxin, nitrosamines, oral estrogen compounds, and numerous other chemicals.
Diagnosis is made using radioisotope scans, CT scans, or hepatic arteriography. Many patients will have advanced disease at diagnosis. Cancer of the liver spreads throughout the organ and invades the portal vein and lymphatics. The most common sites of distant metastases are the lungs and brain.
Radioimmunotherapy is an experimental form of treatment used for some types of liver cancer. A radioactive isotope is attached to a radiolabeled antibody against ferritin, a specific protein found in human liver tumors. The isotope is given intravenously and concentrates in the liver, where it radiates the tumor internally. No immediate treatment side effects have been noted, but thrombocytopenia and neutropenia occur 4-6 weeks after treatment.
The prognosis for liver carcinoma patients is poor. Untreated patients usually die in 3-4 months; treated patients may live 6 to 18 months if they respond to therapy. Long-term survival is seen occasionally after successful subtotal hepatectomy for noninvasive carcinoma. Because the normal metabolic and storage functions of the liver are impaired, patients are at risk for nutritional and bleeding complications.

Why do we not say Avinu Malkienu on Shabbos and why is the Teffilah of Neilah the exception to this very rule?
Sign up
- Anybody can ask a question
- Anybody can answer
- The best answers are voted up and rise to the top
The Magen Avraham gives two reasons:
The Shulchan Aruch rules that we do say Avinu Malkeinu on Yom Kippur that falls out on Shabbos. The Rama says that our custom is that we do not.
The Magen Avraham says that by Neilah there are two reasons why we say Avinu Malkeinu even when Yom Kippur falls out on Shabbos:
We don't say it at most tfillot because we avoid making requests on shabbat.
As for the second part: Maybe because Ne'ila as a tfilla is an expression of our extreme desire for kapara that the avinu malkein then is like saying a mishabeirach for a really sick person on shabbat -- ie we do it anyway with 'shabbat hi milizok' OR Maybe since we always get to that part after shkiya we are more meikil

I just hope my fans got rid of the offending bloke !!
I needed a win to qualify and what a way to get it, from 88 minutes onwards i was playing a 4-1-5 and luckily the ref couldn't tell the time. I still had 2 more games in which to qualify but the board wouldn't have been best pleased.

Not even a thankyou, is he that bad
They should pay me for signing him
I am quite peeved I didn't win more than this:
I have found out that being dominant for a while, match engine doesn't seem to be able to comply with it. While, what I called "Vaughan BS" in CM0405 is not rampant in FM09, it still surfaces now and then. Super goalies and hits to post and bar..blocked shots seems to be FM09 flavour. :P Funny, now having matches regularly (4th season) with 2-5 hits to post/bar per match.
But win is a win. Just ridiculous saves from goalie...and to top of it, I am a Liverpool fan.
Newcastle fans look away.
Well impressed with my players shooting ability so far in this game.
And only 0-1 up.
Newcastle and Sunderland in the Champions League :confused: Suppose it could happen in 2029
Is this the hottest football match ever? Its amazing how there is a downpour at 40C
Oh dear Bordeaux... and its only 2009
Frankreich is German for France, so this fella is called "France"
Dear , oh dear !! Whats going on at the Merseyside
But who gets the match ball. I never see scores like this in my game normally. FA Cup for ya!!! By the way i'm not managing either!
:O Nasty little michael owen will never get a hatrick for man u IRL
What confuses me is there all strikers except for Carrick
In case any one else was wondering i went back and checked out who played!
nice win can u, please, say the name of this nice skin.?
thank u
It's called Klasa and it kicks bottom!!

The figures say it all, in the second leg it ended 7-0 and was 3-0 after 9 minutes.
who was stuttgart goalie..?
Typical German. Even the keepers are good penalty takers!
8-man WBA bring down Olympiacos!
In the ET I had no subs left so after McCarthy hobbled off I had 8 men on the pitch.
I might read my scouts reports a bit more thoroughly after this gem:-
The tireless midfielder is a quality striker eh?
Someone needs to go back to school I think
Why would I loan my own player to myself and charge myself for it?
I've never seen a key player demand that little...But sadly his agent didn't have the correct information and he didn't sign. Maybe if I multiply it by 80 he'll sign.

I'm almost certain that's not a coincidence.
New regen at my club has the potential to surpass Ronaldo as the world's fattest striker. I've never had an outfield player hit 200lbs, just goalkeepers. Naturally I'm going to be playing him whenever I can. The best bit, however, is that his place of birth is Asfordby Hill, in the Leicestershire district of Melton Mowbray

Should be pretty understandable what's funny in these screens even if the language is Norwegian, the point is that L'pool has gotten into administration and received a 9 point deduction 3 out of the last 4 seasons....
And believe it or not, but this is started 2 years after H&G left the club, And the only reason they didn't go under administration season 15/16 was because bought N'Gog for ca 53 mill

317 league games without losing, and we have to lose all of our remaining 7 games to even have a chance of not winning the title. Even if we did lose all 7 games, Man City would have to win all their last 5 games, and even then we'd still be level on points.
One of the weirdest bugs that I've ever encountered. The richest club in the world all of a sudden became the poorest one -and it was unfortunately my team.
On FM09, this has been fixed, because the game will automatically take some money from you when you get near to the £2bn mark, to stop this sort of thing happening

The I and II world wars are 25 years apart, which is within the length of one generation. This is interesting, because it creates a premise for an entire part of a generation to be both without fathers and grandfathers. Have there been other wars separated by the length of one generation (20-30 years)?
In the U.S., the French and Indian War, 1754-1763 was about one generation ahead of the American Revolution 1776-1783. If you take the Texas Revolution of 1836 as the "start" of the Mexican-American War, the 1836 start was 25 years ahead the Civil War (1861-65).
The argument is that the earlier wars "incubated" the later wars, as some historians believe was the case with World War I and II. The French and Indian War caused the taxation (and set up a potential alliance with France), that led to the American Revolution. And the wars of Texas and America against Mexico sharpened the slavery issue, helping to incubate the Civil War.
The "third wars" in these sequences were the War of 1812 after the American Revolution, and the Korean War after World War II. There was no "third war" after the Civil War because of the exhaustion of the Americans.
There were plenty: E.g. the Austro-Prussian War (1866) and the Franco-Prussian War (1870–1871) form such a pair. Obviously Prussia (soon to become center of the German Empire as proclaimed by Wilhelm I in 1871) participated in both.
As a European who has been born in the 1960s I rather often comment to my friends that it has been extraordinary good fortune for us members of an generation that hasn't had to witness war (from up-close) during their lifetimes (keeping fingers crossed.) I give credit partly to the shocks of the two WWs (on the destructive side) and the developments leading up to the founding of the EU (on the constructive side) each.
UPDATE: I now realize that I have answered a slightly different question by mistake, i.e. one for pairs of wars with a time span of 25 years or less (sic!) in between. Sorry for that.
How about the Punic Wars? The first war was 264 to 241 BC. The second was 218 to 201 and the third 149 to 146. There were 23 years between the first two and 52 between the last two.
What about three generations in a row?
From the series of Polish-Teutonic Wars that took place between 14th and 16th century, I would refer to three periods of time. 1409-11 (with the Battle of Grunwald, which was one of the largest military engagements of medieval Europe) during the rules of Władysław II Jogaila, then a generation later, 1431-35, at the end of his reigns, and finally another generation later, Thirteen Years War (1454-66), in the times of Casimir IV Jagiellon.
The French Revolution begun in 1789 and the Battle of Waterloo was 1815, 25 years later. I think you could also find many examples during Hundred-Years War.
Also crusades can be set in 10-30 year steps:
(dates rounded, full list eg. in Wikipedia)
The French Revolution (begun in 1789) happened around a decade before the Napoleonic Wars (late 1700s-1814). That's a clear case, too, of the one leading to the other, as the instability surrounding the Reign of Terror and so on led directly to Napoleon gaining power in France.
One could argue that there's a similar link between the Russo-Japanese War of the early 1900s and the Great War, as it demonstrated that Russia was weak and could be taken. As with the French Revolution / Napoleonic campaigns, though, that might be too close for you, as you had more or less the same cohort fighting in each instance.
My other example was going to be the Punic Wars, although those too have already been mentioned. If ever one conflict led to another...

I'm afraid the question below might turn out to be very stupid -
I just don't know how to make sense of two asymptotic expansions,
given the heat operator $e^{-t\triangle}$ with $\triangle$ a Laplace type operator on smooth functions over an n-dimensional manifold we have an asymptotic expansion of the kernel \begin{equation} \text{k}(e^{-t\triangle}) \backsim \sum_{j \geq 0} c_{\frac{-n - j}{2}} \,t^{\frac{-n - j}{2}} \end{equation} and we also have an asymptotic expansion for the trace, \begin{equation} \text{Tr}(e^{-t\triangle}) \backsim \sum_{j \geq 0} c_{\frac{-n - j}{2}} \,t^{\frac{-n - j}{2}} \end{equation}
Now, where is the difference in these two expansions ?
I realize this question suggests I don't know enough about both the kernel and the definition of the trace - which is absolutely true. The problem though is I don't know how to find an answer since all sources I have go on a large detour on how to construct the heat kernel, and on general definitions and properties of trace structures on operator algebras. I am totally aware I need to eventually understand these concepts, what I hope for with this question is to get a first idea in order to proceed. If that's not possible I'd also appreciate a reference to literature that starts at a low level so that I can get an overview.
Hope this makes sense, thanks a lot for your help!

Pope says he is satisfied with secret report
The events surrounding Pope Benedict's resignation and the election of his successor will likely be the subject of inquiry for a very, very long time. Today, the Holy See issued a statement that served to heighten the intrigue further:
The Holy Father received in audience this morning Cardinals Julian Herranz, Jozef Tomko, and Salvatore De Giorgi, who formed the commission to investigate the leaks of private information. They were accompanied by the commissions secretary, Fr. Luigi Martignani, O.F.M., Cap.At the conclusion of their mission, the Holy Father thanked them for the helpful work they did, and expressed satisfaction for the results of the investigation. Their work made it possible to detect, given the limitations and imperfections of the human factor of every institution, the generosity and dedication of those who work with uprightness and generosity in the Holy See at the service of the mission entrusted by Christ to the Roman Pontiff.The Holy Father has decided that the acts of this investigation, known only to himself, remain solely at the disposition of the new pope.
Investigations ordinarily end with either a confirmation of allegations or a rejection. But in this case, we are told the investigation found that those in the Vatican who are generous and dedicated are working with generosity and uprightness - hardly a determination that needs to be reserved only for the eyes of the next pope. So obviously there is something more to it.

The stream of unsavory news from the Vatican makes me yearn for a pope who is not from the Curia and who has impeccable integrity. I'd rather take the risk of the unknown, and opportunity for renewal, than the depressing continuation of this intrigue-filled little Vatican world.
The secrecy stressed here and in the elaborate instructions for the Conclave, might once have seemed merely a quaint tradition, a bit of Vatican local color. But "that stream of unsavory news" does begin to suggest that the Curia, the Papacy, and the College of Cardinals might have much to hide.Benedict's carefully ambiguous comment might as well apply to the faithful work of the three Cardinals as to the conclusions they were able to draw from their investigations: "Their work made it possible to detect, given the limitations and imperfections of the human factor of every institution, the generosity and dedication of those who work with uprightness and generosity in the Holy See at the service of the mission entrusted by Christ to the Roman Pontiff." That's vague enough to appear to agree with the next Pope's reaction to the report, no matter what it might be. And it tells us little or nothing about the nothing about its contents.
I was about to make a disparaging comment on the substance, or lack of it, in this announcement, but then I noticed what appears to be a mistake in the English translation. The original is in Italian, and I am sadly deficient there. But it doesn't seem to contain the absurd "generosity and dedication of those who work with uprightness and generosity."An oversight in translation is not necessarily a sign of disarray in the Vatican, but they are usually very good about such things. And as to substance, aargh!
If I understand correctly, this investigation was into who did the leaking, not into what the leaking was of. So all this means is that the pope has tried to find out who exposed the Vatican's dirty laundry, and it says nothing about the dirty laundry itself.
So does this mean that prior to the cardinals' investigation it *wasn't* possible to detect the generosity and dedication of those who work at the Vatican?
John Prior --- you're right about the absurdity of the English translation:". . . generosit, rettitudine e dedizione di quanti lavorano nella Santa Sede .. ." generosity" only comes once in the original (along with the rectitude or uprightness), rather than twice as in the English version. "The lady doth protest too much, methinks," as the Bard says in Act II of Hamlet.All institutions, all countries, all people, try to keep their dirty laundry hidden from view. Here, the Vatican is once again acting with perfect propriety. according to the norms of the secular world that Rome so often enjoys disparaging, but that all too often sets the agenda for church leaders. Is Beppe Grillo a practicing Catholic?
Luke, good question. I have to assume the investigation into U.S. women religious resulted in the same official conclusion.
Nicholas Clifford:according to the norms of the secular world that Rome so often enjoys disparaging .Example:Cardinal Weurls interview on arriving in Rome yesterday:"The secularism that is just engulfing our culture," he said, "will be weighing heavily on the hearts and minds in the conclave.""Those people who think they know the Gospel and it doesn't have any meaning for them, they're the people we have to find a way to touch, to invite once again to the embrace of Christ," he said. "That thought, that concern, that issue, is going to be something that we'll all carry with us into the conclave.Not one word about cleaning up the corruption and sexual scandals within the Church.I am reminded of Cardinal Suenens distinction, back in 1962, between ecclesia ad intra and ecclesia ad extra. Seems to me that ad intra should come before ad extra.
Another public relations fiasco! Who is in charge of PR at the Vatican? I don't remember such laughable moments during John Paul's pontificate. Were they there, and we just didn't notice?Honestly, it's like a parody. Saturday Night Live and Jay Leno will have a field day. This report revealed the generosity and devotion of those in the Vatican, and... must be kept secret. Only the eyes of the next pope may see it. Good heavens. Do they really think the public is so gullible?
Who is in charge of PR at the Vatican?A man from the St. Escriva personal prelature.http://www.salon.com/2012/06/27/the_popes_new_pr_man_fox_news_reporter_a...
Thanks, Gerelyn. Opus Dei must not deserve its reputation. One would expect greater competence if the lore surrounding it were true.
Rita - see link: http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2012/06/24/greg-burke-the-pope-s-n..., he appears to be living up to the standards of Fox News.
Hi, Rita:I wonder if what you or I might consider incompetence is just the opposite. I think all the odd stuff coming out is meant to divert attention from what really matters to those who really matter.
"Actually, he appears to be living up to the standards of Fox News."Well said. Very dry. Thanks, Bill! "all the odd stuff coming out is meant to divert attention"Gerelyn, that's an interesting suspicion. I'm as open to theories as the next person. What do you suppose "really matters" in this instance, and to whom does it really matter? In other words, what might this divert our attention from? We'll take it as speculation.
I knew a former Opus Dei man who was at first a very idealistic fellow. He was turned bitter by the OD training -- he was taught to be oblivious to the faults of people in authority. I had hoped that the other ODers would have learned a lot about clay feet from the Escriva brouhahas, but it looks like they've been permanently scarred by the brainwashing. Looks like this new PR man wouldn't know a crisis if it walked up to him and bit off his nose. Or maybe the cardinals just wouldn't listen to him?
Boy, didn't the stilettos come out with surprising speed and skill after just one day Scottish cardinal Keith O'Brien suggested that a married clergy was a welcome development for the future pontiff?The very next day after O'Brien's impolitic comment [Vatican-style], lurid stories of O'Brien's sexual harassment and assault (?) on seminarians and priests just miraculously found their way into the scandal voracious media. Yeah, I believe that: NOT!If you believe all this coming to public attention was all just coincidence, you must also believe that unicorns defecate in technicolor. The political attack on OBrien was done with the skill of a Vatican courtesan, with a certain Germanic flare.Good piece by David Gibson:http://www.religionnews.com/2013/02/25/venting-and-vetting-the-brutal-si...
I'm so very glad that this soon-to-be-pope-emeritus is satisfied. I'll sleep better tonight knowing that.But until and unless the secrecy is lifted and the rest of us become privy to the results, pardon me if I don't think I can take it to the Vatican bank with any degree of spiritual security. And let's not forget, B16 doesn't have to live with cleaning up the mess for which he is partially responsible, so he can be as satisfied as he wants.
Gerelyn, thats an interesting suspicion. Im as open to theories as the next person. What do you suppose really matters in this instance, and to whom does it really matter? In other words, what might this divert our attention from? Well take it as speculation. What really matters to the rulers? Islam and China. See, e.g., an old McCloskey article from L'Osservatore Romano http://www.catholicity.com/mccloskey/clash.html (If you're unfamiliar with McCloskey, the blurbs on his book are informative.)http://www.catholicity.com/mccloskey/goodnews.htmlSome things that have been interesting, imho: the Gomes v. Mahoney bout. O'Brien. The Herranz secret report. And, as you pointed out, the PR from the Vatican. Is it clumsy, or is it adroit? We learn about the pope's post-retirement titles, his cat's name, his choice of shoes, but we haven't heard who the rulers have decided will be the next pope, or why they decided Benedict should step aside, or if the cardinals have been told who the next pope is to be.
Betty Clermont, in Feb. 12 Daily Kos, pulls a lot of it together:http://www.dailykos.com/story/2013/02/12/1186481/-Opus-Dei-in-Charge-For...
The cardinals should be shown the secret report, says Tauran. Article from Reuters: http://news.yahoo.com/sex-power-scandals-loom-over-vatican-pre-vote-1741... that:French Cardinal Jean-Louis Tauran said in a newspaper interview that the cardinal electors, who number 115 after O'Brien stepped down, should also be informed about a secret report on Vatican corruption prepared for Pope Benedict.The retiring pontiff has decided to reserve the report for his successor, but the three cardinals over 80 years old who drew it up will be allowed to inform the cardinal electors about some of its findings during next week's consultations. The cardinal electors cannot decide to choose this or that name to vote for if they don't know the contents of this dossier," Tauran told La Repubblica newspaper.
Isn't it only good form for the resigning pope to leave the decision on what to disclose to the new pope, who will have to deal with the fallout? What else did you expect him to do?
All this medievalia induces somnabulism as the red hats troop to the Sistine to go through the motions that will yield another dysfunctional pontificate, another ten years of despair.POSTPONE THE CONCLAVE, I say, and do some serious reflection and consultation about the parlous state of the RCC.Enough of the silly games.
Lots of silly games afoot here. In one of his latest letters from Rome, Robert Moynihan wrote that in Benedicts--shall we say--recognition of all of the good men in the curia, he was giving the bad guys notice that he wasnt playing his hand but the new pope would know who they were and would deal with them. Why the heck doesnt Benedict deal with them? Hes got 48 hours!
"Fr. Lombardi added that the three cardinals of the Commission will participate fully in the General Congregations [of the conclave], where they too will have the occasion to express their own convictions. But it was also pointed out that participants in the Congregations are also buond to secrecy." That's from an article in La Stampa explaining the new conclave rules, Sounds to me as though the members of the Commission will be able to discuss the findings of their investigation in the General Congregations, even though they can't give the final report to the cardinals. Hmmm. But all three member are over 80, so they won't be able to vote.http://vaticaninsider.lastampa.it/en/the-vatican/detail/articolo/motu-pr...
"Why the heck doesnt Benedict deal with them? Hes got 48 hours!"Why didn't he deal better with them for the last 8 years? He isn't going to grow a spine in 48 hours that he couldn't find in 8 years, as evidenced by passing HIS dirty laundry to his successor who might even be part of B16's dirty laundry.

I know I will probably lose my music, but that's okay.

This question came from our site for computer enthusiasts and power users.
Since end of 2012, Google has ended support for the Exchange protocol, so you would not be able to sync your iPhone contacts with your Gmail account via Exchange. Instead use the Gmail account method directly via Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add account... > Gmail, enter your Gmail account credentials and enable contact sync.
You can alternatively export your iPhone contacts to your computer to a single vCard file and then import the contacts file to your Gmail account.
Turning on contact sync with your Gmail/Google Apps account on your iPhone will sync/upload all your contacts to Google.
Refer to Google's instructions on how to do this:
13a. If you would like to keep your existing contacts on your device select the Keep on my iPhone (or iPad or iPod touch) option when prompted. This will also allow you to keep syncing with your computer via iTunes. If you choose to keep existing contacts, you will sync the contents of the My Contacts group.
13b. If you have all your contacts in Google and you want to start syncing them to your device and don't want to keep the contacts on your phone, tap Delete Existing Contacts. If there are no contacts on your phone, the contents of your All Contacts group will be synced.
13c. If you have all your contacts on your device and want to import them into Google, you can synchronize your Google Contacts with iTunes. All Contacts and Calendars that you sync with iTunes will be put into the On My iPhone Contacts and Calendar groups on your phone. iOS currently doesn't allow you to move Contacts or Calendar events from the On My iPhone groups to the Google Sync groups.
This may work for you.
You can get an iCloud account free using your iPhone. or the via the PC. You can sync your contacts to the iCloud. From there you can export all your contacts out as a vCard file from the iCloud Addressbook web interface. Then in gmail import the file.
Here is a link to my answer to a similar question that shows you how to export from the iCloud Addresbook.
Look at this thread in Google forums.
My personal best way to sync with Google is iTunes (without Mac OS X) or AddressBook.app (on Mac OS X) at the moment.
Some answers are below, but have a look to the page:
I am assuming that the Windows 7 iTunes display of Devices frame.
In iTunes → Devices (the side bar) → Select your iPhone device → Info tab (at the top) → Sync Contacts click/check Sync Google Contacts and click Configure... to enter your Gmail account info.
If you prefer not to synchronize your adressbook with your computer it is easy to synchonize your iPhone Contacs directly to Gmail.
I followed the instructions from Contacts sync between the iPhone and Gmail using CardCAV.
This approach works well to solve another problem where you only want to see contacts with phone numbers on your iPhone.
There are several approaches to transfer iPhone contacts to GMAIL
A) from SIM card using iPhone only
B) using iTunes
C) using vCard file
but FIRST you need to establish a sync between your iPhone and GMAIL
A) transfer contacts from SIM card to GMAIL directly
Straight foward but only applies to contacts on the SIM card.
On your iPhone, open Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Import SIM Contacts. Choose to import SIM Contacts to "Google Mail Calendar".
B) transfer contacts from iPhone using iTunes
Sorry, the answers given here referring to iTunes syncinc Contacts to Google Contacts do not apply any longer as this option was removed from iTunes 11.1 and later.
C) transfer contacts from iPhone using iCloud & vCard file
Follow the instructions provided here.
Basically, you enable syncinc your contacts to the iCloud and then download the contacts from the iCloud as vCard file using the browser. You can then import this file into GMAIL.
PS: Instructions tested on iOS 8.x
This is the easiest way to upload iPhone contacts to Gmail:
Source: http://www.unlockboot.com/2016/04/upload-contacts-from-iphone-to-gmail.html
As I understand your contacts are not on iCloud, but just synced locally with your Mac. What I would do is to share them to Gmail from your Mac: Preferences > On my Mac > synchronize with Google.
That way you'll have two ways syncing between Gmail and your Mac + your Mac will sync with your iPhone.
If you're looking to just move your contacts in bulk, you could buy this $5 app and be done in a few seconds - https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/contact-mover/id456984826
We're looking for long answers that provide some explanation and context. Don't just give a one-line answer; explain why your answer is right, ideally with citations. Answers that don't include explanations may be removed.

How The iPhone Figures In The U.S.-China Trade Gap
Trade will be one of the big issues when President Obama and Chinese President Hu Jintao sit down to talk this week. The U.S. trade deficit with China is large and growing. But the numbers don't tell the whole story.
The Apple iPhone is an iconic American product, invented, designed and sold by a California company. But when trade figures are tallied, the iPhone is counted as a Chinese import. That means every iPhone sold here makes the U.S. trade deficit with China grow.
The iPhone is made up of hundreds of individual parts. Those components are made in the U.S., South Korea, Japan and many other places. But they are assembled into an iPhone in a factory in China.
Few if any of the important parts are actually made in China, but when the U.S. counts imports, it uses the fully assembled wholesale value of a product.
Mark Doms, the chief economist at the Commerce Department, acknowledges this approach has limitations but says there really isn't any other way to do it. "There's really no practical way to ask companies to break out the value of the goods by country of origin for all the individual components," he says. "That just isn't very feasible."
Instead, the total wholesale value of the iPhone — for the 3G model it was about $180 — goes on the Chinese import side of the trade ledger. As a result, says economist Rob Feenstra of the University of California, Davis, "The U.S. trade deficit with China tends to be exaggerated."
Planet Money
Right now that annual trade deficit is more than $275 billion. How much of it can be traced to the iPhone?
In a much-talked-about paper, Chinese economist Yuqing Xing took a stab at the figure. "If you look at the manufacturing costs, China's contribution is $6.50."
He says that figure represents the actual cost of assembling each iPhone. And he concludes that if that number were used instead of the entire wholesale cost, the U.S. trade deficit with China would shrink by roughly $2 billion.
Some economists dispute his figures, but there's little doubt that the real trade deficit with China is less than the number that shows up in the headlines.
Doms acknowledges that but adds that even if you strip away the inflated value of some Chinese imports, it won't change the fundamental fact: The U.S. trade deficit with China is increasing.
