Adena preps for Heritage Days
August 7, 2013
ADENA - In the early days of the village named Adena, settled in 1801, there were Indians living and hunting the lands. But there will unlikely be Indians in the parade that will be held at 1 p.m....
Nice little village and oh what a beautiful American Legion Post. Have to give love to our saviors..our soldiers.

Imagine two similar, but technically different scenarios:
While swimming he was caught by the torrent. It put him under water, he breathed in some water, got unconscious. Some passers-by pulled him out of water, started CPR, and succeeded in saving his life.
He had planned to go swimming after work to his usual everyday place in the local river, but as he was busy at work he couldn't manage it. On the very same day the nearby dam failed, causing catastrophic flood on the very place he intended to swim. Thus he has been saved from drowning.
Can you distinguish the two situations by a single adverb (or a single-word-like phrase)?
He nearly drowned.
He almost drowned.
He was close to drowning.
There is a related question Nearly or Almost, but not helpful for this case.
EDIT (in reaction to @JanusBahsJacquet's comment below one of the answers):
You may also think of a third scenario somewhere in between the first two:
3. While swimming he was caught by the torrent. Fortunately, thanks to his good physical form and a bit of luck, after a long and fierce fight with the elements, he overpowered the vortex and escaped from the water on his own.
Would you also use
He nearly/almost drowned.
for this scenario?

I stumbled upon this kind of problem and I really can't get the hang of it. Will anyone please outline the way to solve it?
Determine for which of the first $p > 0$ values the polynomial $f = 42x^4+21x^3-x+1 \in \mathbb Z_p$ is monic and has degree 3. Then factor it as product of irreducibile polynomials in the polynomial rings found.

Fast-Paced Cartoons May Hurt Kids' Attention, Memory
Sept. 12, 2011 -- Children who watched just nine minutes of a fast-paced, high-action cartoon performed worse on routine tests of attention and other skills compared to children who drew pictures or watched slower-paced educational cartoons, according to new research.
The 4-year-olds who viewed the fast-paced cartoon, then took the tests, ''were handicapped in their readiness for learning," says researcher Angeline Lillard, PhD, professor of psychology at the University of Virginia, Charlottesville.
"The specific tests that we gave involve following rules, remembering what they had been told, delaying gratification, and problem solving," Lillard tells WebMD. Viewers of the fast-paced cartoon did the worst on the tests.
The tests were given right after the drawing or viewing, she tells WebMD. She calls the effect ''immediate and strong.'' However, she can't say how long the effect might last.
Based on her study, however, "I would say parents shouldn't be letting their kids watch these shows in the van on the way to school."
The research is published in the journal Pediatrics.
Nickelodeon spokesman David Bittler took exception with the study, citing the small number of study participants and other problems. Nickelodeon produces SpongeBob SquarePants, the fast-paced cartoon viewed in the study.
Study Details
Experts have long debated whether TV adversely affects children's attention, Lillard says. Some studies show that children who watch entertainment or violent TV have ill effects later when it comes to attention and sticking to a task, for instance.
Other researchers disagree.
Less research has been done on the very immediate effects of a fast-paced show. Lillard decided to focus on that.
She randomly assigned 60 4-year-old boys and girls to one of three groups:
- One group watched a fast-paced cartoon about an animated sponge that lives under the sea
- One group watched a slower-paced educational cartoon that shows a typical U.S. preschooler
- One group drew with crayons and markers.
Right after the viewing, the children were given a variety of tests to assess their attention, problem-solving ability, and other skills. In one test, the researchers measured their ability to delay gratification by seeing if they could hold off on eating snacks. In another, they measured problem-solving abilities by asking children to move disks from one peg to another.

What does
1xTacet mean?
Does it mean "play the following in 1st round only"?
What does
Does it mean "play the following in 1st round only"?
"Tacet" is a Latin musical term meaning (literally) "it is silent". in this case, the number preceding it identifies which repetitions it is to be silent for. Here, the first time through is to be silent. The second time through, do play that segment.
In jazz and other more 'modern' genres, tacet is often used for very short breaks (such as one or two bars). In classical and orchestral music, it is usually reserved for longer breaks (such as entire movements).

Considering the success of a previous question involving Eulerian numbers, I thought I might throw this question into the mix. It comes from some localization computations in GW theory, but in this form is purely combinatorial.
Eulerian numbers of the second kind are defined by the recursion relation
$$\left\langle\left\langle n\atop m\right\rangle\right\rangle = (m+1)\left\langle\left\langle n-1\atop m\right\rangle\right\rangle+(2n-m-1)\left\langle\left\langle n-1\atop m-1\right\rangle\right\rangle$$
with the initial conditions $\left\langle\left\langle n\atop 0\right\rangle\right\rangle=1$ and $\left\langle\left\langle n\atop m\right\rangle\right\rangle$ = 0 for $m\geq n$. For references, see:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eulerian_number and http://oeis.org/classic/A008517.
The following three statements are known:
$\sum_{m=0}^{n} (-1)^mm!(2n-m-2)!\left\langle\left\langle n\atop m\right\rangle\right\rangle=0$ for all $n$;
$\sum_{m=0}^{n} (-1)^m(m)m!(2n-m-2)!\left\langle\left\langle n\atop m\right\rangle\right\rangle=0$ for odd $n$;
$\sum_{m=0}^{n} (-1)^m(m+1)!(2n-m)!\left\langle\left\langle n\atop m\right\rangle\right\rangle=0$ for even $n$;
(2 and 3 are equivalent).
Question: Show that the expression in the second statement is non-zero for even $n$, i.e. show
$\sum_{m=0}^{n} (-1)^m(m)m!(2n-m-2)!\left\langle\left\langle n\atop m\right\rangle\right\rangle\neq0$ for even $n$.
Certainly we've been checking this on a computer for modest values of $n$.

Can one prove the Cantor-Bernstein (or Schröder-Bernstein) theorem without using the Axiom of Infinity?
Actually, the usual proof of the Cantor-Schröder-Bernstein Theorem does not use the Axiom of Infinity (nor the Axiom of Powersets).
By the usual proof, I mean the one found on Wikipedia, for example. Using the notation from that proof, the main point of contention is whether we can form the sets $C_n$ and $C = \bigcup_{n=0}^\infty C_n$. These sets exist by comprehension:
$C_0 = \{x \in A: \forall y \in B\,(x \neq g(y))\}$
$C_n = \{x \in A: \exists s\,(s:\{0,\dots,n\}\to A \land s(0) \in C_0 \land (\forall i < n)(s(i+1) = g(f(s(i)))) \land s(n) = x\}$,
where abbreviations such as $s:\{0,\dots,n\}\to A$ should be replaced by the equivalent (bounded) formulas in the language of set theory. The definition of $C_n$ is uniform in $n$, and so
$C = \{x \in A: \exists n\,(\mathrm{FinOrd}(n) \land x \in C_n)\}$,
where $x \in C_n$ should be replaced by the above definition and $\mathrm{FinOrd}(n)$ is an abbreviation for "$n$ is zero or a successor ordinal and every element of $n$ is zero or a successor ordinal." An alternate definition of $C$ is
$C = \{x \in A: \forall D\,(C_0 \subseteq D \subseteq A \land g[f[D]] \subseteq D \to x \in D)\}$,
which shows that $C$ is $\Delta_1$-definable. The rest of the proof uses induction on finite ordinals, but since the definition of the sets $C_n$ is uniform these are special cases of transfinite induction.
In conclusion, it looks like the proof could work in Kripke-Platek Set Theory — which has neither the Axiom of Infinity nor the Axiom of Powersets — provided that the two definitions of $C$ given above are provably equivalent. I haven't tried to check whether the two definitions are provably equivalent but, in any case, the proof can be carried out in Kripke-Platek Set Theory with $\Sigma_1$-Comprehension.
(I also like the fixed-point proof mentioned by Andrej and Robin, and indeed, this is the proof I usually use of this theorem. But I claim that there is another more general way to answer the question.)
My answer is that any of the standard proofs can be transformed into a proof not using the Infinity axiom as an assumption. The reason is that if Infinity fails, then every set is finite, and in this case, the Cantor-Schroeder-Bernstein statement becomes trivial---it's just the pigeonhole principle that if n ≤ m ≤ n for natural numbers, then n = m.
So, take any proof of CSB using Infinity and make a new argument omitting that assumption, by simply splitting into cases. Case 1, if Infinity holds, use the original argument. Case 2, if Infinity fails, then CSB becomes trivial.
For this reason, I find the question perhaps to be somewhat odd. The power and usefulness of the Cantor-Schroeder-Bernstein theorem seems to lay largely in the case when there ARE infinitely sets, and is trivialized when there are none.
One of the standard proofs avoids the Axiom of Infinity. It's based on the Tarski fixed-point theorem, see for instance www.cs.ucla.edu/~palsberg/course/cs232/papers/bernstein.pdf . But it does use the Power Set Axiom in an essential way.
Yes, there is a way to prove Cantor-Bernstein theorem from Tarski's fixed point theorem, see a proof outline on MathWorld.

J.B. Bauersfeld
Now that KU has made it official with the firing of Turner Gill, the obvious question is: who's next?
Former Texas Tech coach Mike Leech's name has been thrown out there, and with good reason. Leech revolutionized the entire offensive structure, not only of Texas Tech, but of the entire Big 12.
KU Athletics Director Sheahon Zenger has deep ties to Kansas State (after all, he did coach with Bill Snyder in Manhattan), so anyone from the Snyder coaching tree would get a long hard look. A couple of those guys already have head coaching experience, but don't have a job... Others have not had a shot as a head coach. I'll throw some of those out there (in no particular order)
Phil Bennett was the D-Coordinator at K-State before taking the head coaching job at Southern Methodist. Though his track record at SMU was pretty bad, just 19-52 (including a game as interim coach at Pitt for one game). He is currently the D-Coordinator at Baylor... (doesn't exactly scream Defense).
Jim Leavitt was the D-Coordinator at KSU prior to Bennett. Leavitt left the K-State program to become the first ever head coach at South Florida when the Bulls added football as a sport in 1995 (they didn't start playing until 97). His record with USF was pretty darn good 94-57. Leavitt though left under fire that he allegedly struck a player in the locker room. He denied the allegations and settled with the school. Leavitt is currently the Linebackers coach with the 49ers.
Brent Venables is currently the associate head coach and Defensive Coordinator at Oklahoma. He was at Kansas State early in his career, but left with Bob Stoops when Stoops left for OU. Venables played at K-State and knows the recruiting trails in the Big 12 well. He has been rumored as a candidate for multiple head coaching positions, but has yet to land/accept one.
Who else do you think KU should look at?

Reptile behavior can be very hard to interpret, especially if you are a new reptile owner. Actions that you may think are unimportant can actually be how your reptile signals that it is content or upset. In this article we will discuss some things that reptiles do to communicate with their owners.
How do I know if my reptile is upset?
In general, if a reptile doesn't like what you are doing, whether that is handling him, petting him, or anything else, he will try to get away from you or possibly even bite. Signs that something in his environment is making your reptile feel insecure, uncomfortable, or in pain include:
Different types of reptiles will have different behaviors to indicate their discomfort and insecurity.
For example, a lizard that is content and comfortable while being handled will sit on your arm, looking around and flicking his tongue occasionally. A lizard that is upset or agitated will try to twist around in your hands or dart around, opening his mouth. Snakes that are used to being handled and enjoy it will have smooth movements when being held, while snakes that are frightened or stressed will have jerky, panicked movements and thrash around.
Why are reptiles so aggressive?
The truth is that when a reptile reacts in a negative way to a human, it does not mean that the reptile is trying to hurt you. Snapping and striking at things he views as predators is an instinctive behavior and a natural reaction if the reptile feels he needs to defend himself or his territory. There are no malicious thoughts behind this behavior, and you should not contribute human emotions to reptile behavior.
How do I know if my reptile likes what I'm doing?
Though some reptiles will not want to be handled, there are some that will get used to it and even enjoy it. Signs that your reptile likes being handled include:
Some owners say that their lizards bob their heads as a greeting. This can be a sign of recognition, or it can be a defense mechanism. The other movements your reptile is making will let you know which one it is.
What are the signs that something is wrong?
Because our reptiles can't talk to us, we need to learn how to interpret certain behaviors that can indicate that they are sick or stressed. These behaviors include:
The more time you spend around your reptile, the more easily you will be able to read his body language and accurately interpret what he is trying to communicate to you.

Uncertain Election Results Rekindle Euro-Crisis Fears
The prospect of a long period of political uncertainty following elections in Italy, the euro zone's third-largest economy, has shattered months of uneasy calm in European financial markets and demonstrated that the currency union remains prey to shocks.
The elections have also emphasized that the most powerful opposition to the euro-zone crisis managers' austerity-first solution to the bloc's financial crisis could come from the ballot box.
Democracy "is the euro zone's Achilles' heel," said Charles Grant, director of the London-based Centre for European Reform.
Three polls last year—a referendum in Ireland on new fiscal rules and elections in the Netherlands and Greece—went in favor of the euro's political masters, in Greece's case only just.
But in Italy, the euro zone seems to have run out of luck in a vote interpreted as a rejection both of the country's traditional political class and of the austerity many Italians see as being imposed on them by Brussels and Berlin.
"The euro isn't safe until growth returns in Southern Europe," Mr. Grant said.
That elusive objective is officially projected to be reached in the next 12-18 months, but may have been further postponed by this week's uncertainty.
The challenge to the established German-led crisis-fighting strategy has alarmed governments across the euro zone and at European Union headquarters in Brussels.
Spain, first on the firing line when financial markets become volatile, expressed strong concern about the election's outcome.
But there was no sign of any rethink: Euro-zone governments and the European Commission on Tuesday urged Italy to stick to the path of economic overhauls and budget stringency.
Martin Shultz, president of the European Parliament, hinted at some of the anxiety in Brussels, saying the EU in Italy and elsewhere had become the victim of a "blame game."
"Success is always the success of national governments and failure is always Brussels, which is not true but [it is the] public perception," he said.
The election has challenged the optimism beginning to emerge among politicians that the crisis was over, which had been encouraged by the financial-market tranquility following the promise from European Central Bank President Mario Draghi in July to "do whatever it takes" to save the euro.
The ECB followed up by announcing its plan for so-called Outright Market Transactions, under which it would buy bonds of euro-zone governments requesting an official aid program and complying with the attached conditions.
The ECB's plan eased fears of an imminent euro-zone breakup.
As that fear receded in Italy, it seems to have been replaced by popular anger, some analysts say.
If fearful voters tend to vote for the devils they know, angry voters are more likely to try something new.
The receding breakup fear also hit momentum among governments to correct the flaws in the euro zone's makeup, slowing the push to complete a euro-zone "banking union" and to cut the links between governments with weak finances and feeble banks, which was undermining confidence in both.
In fact, since the announcement of the OMT, national banks in peripheral economies have been buying more government bonds than ever, apparently strengthening those links.
This underlines, analysts say, that the euro zone is far from resolving its underlying vulnerabilities.
The election result has also increased the likelihood that the ECB will be called on to activate its as-yet-untested OMT program to help Spain, Italy or both.
If that happens, the implementation of the program could pose a make-or-break test for the euro.
The ECB would have a huge stake in the OMT's success.
But, among the possible pitfalls: a government unable or unwilling to meet the conditions of its program, and a central bank that becomes increasingly anxious over time to limit possible losses as it owns a growing proportion of Italian and Spanish government debt.
Activation of the OMT is still not inevitable, despite the increase in Spanish and Italian borrowing costs Tuesday.
What does seem certain is weeks, if not months, of hiatus in the Italian political system as political leaders discuss whether they can form a grand coalition that can govern the country.
Nothing formal can happen until March 15, at the earliest, when Parliament is formally convened. By May 15, when President Giorgio Napolitano's mandate expires, a new president must be elected.
An early decision to call new elections seems unlikely, some analysts say.
To do so in an apparent effort to get the "right result" for the EU risks a further backlash among voters.
In any case, many European governments are run by unlikely coalition bedfellows—including the U.K. and the Netherlands, and, in the past and possibly in the future, Germany.
Perhaps, after the dust has settled, Italy will join their number.

10 Ways to Deal with Temper Tantrums
4 of 11
Ignore the Tantrum
Unless your child is likely to hurt himself or others or break things, you should probably just ignore the tantrum until it goes away. If your presence seems to be aggravating your toddler's tantrum or you're getting angry and can't stand it any more, leave the room.

As I am setting up a Samba4 domain, I would like to install Bind9.8, however, it is not in backports, and using testing would upgrade many other packages to testing.
Any suggestions?
Or just do it manually. No drama and works fine :)
This will install the latest bind in /opt/bind so it won't conflict with the current system packages. If you want some extra features or non stadard options just read the README in the source directory.
Better than installing the testing/unstable packages directly is to backport them yourself. This would involve downloading the source package, and compiling it against packages in stable.
Add only a deb-src line (not a deb line) for testing or unstable to sources.list:
Then run:
The last command will fetch the source package to the current directory and try to build it. If it is successful, you'll have new .deb files in the current directory when it is finished which you can install with
You could a technique called pinning in APT. Basically you can install software from unstable or testing without upgrading you whole system.
Here's how I did it for Gallery2. Just get the package from sid by pinning it. All packages go to squeeze by default (*) and gallery2 comes from sid.

If disease had a flavor, it would be peanut butter and jelly.
While I was still in grade school, my mother was diagnosed with late-stage breast cancer. I learned how to spell words such as estrogen, radiation and mastectomy. I learned that a breast was a circle with no beginning and no end. And from this experience, I painted the universe. Otherwise, the acknowledgement that my mother received a prognosis of only a few months to live seemed impossible.

Is it an issue to discard a menorah that has been used for the mitzvah of Neros Chanuka?
What if the menorah is made from something not usually used for a menorah? For example,bottles, cans, potatoes, ice?
Mishna B'rura to 21:1 says that once a thing used for a mitzva is no longer usable for the mitzva, it can be discarded, but should not be discarded in a degrading manner or used for a degrading purpose. He considers deliberately throwing it onto the garbage heap as an example of discarding it in a degrading manner. [I've heard recommended that such an object be put in a separate bag and then in the garbage.] [However, see comments to this answer regarding whether a m'nora is included in this category.]
[As I wrote, he only says this about something used for a mitzva and no longer usable. I conjecture that his not considering a still-usable object is simply because such things aren't generally discarded at all, but that, if bal tashchis is not an issue, the same rule will apply.]
[As Double AA notes in his answer, this does not apply to things like m'zuzos and t'filin.]
As always, for practical matters, consult your rabbi rather than relying on what you read here.
You may discard it. The gemara (Megillah 26b) states:
A menorah is certainly in the former category, especially considering you don't actually need a menorah as you could light candles directly on a table! (Although see discussion here.)

Ext Showcase
I think a showcase of applications created using Ext would be a welcome feature linked to the Ext homepage. This would demonstrate to current/potential users what is achievable by putting it all together and, if possible, a run down of how the project was engaged, tackled, lessons learned etc,.
This is most likely to come from community sites which are public but there may be enterprise customers willing to talk about their experiences.
This would be of great assistance for people with ambitions to create small or large projects and increases potential for additional license sales.
I have come across posts with image capture fragments of what people are generating and there are some wonderful, fully fledged, real world apps being created. It would be nice to see a few different examples.

Working on a friend's house, we're installing a bathroom fan. He had planned to vent the fan out the closest soffit, which is only a few feet away. I'm trying to persuade him to vent it out the roof at best, or the side of the 2nd floor at worst, because I've always been told that you should go "up and out" with bathroom exhaust. What is the best method, and more importantly, why?
As far as I know, it doesn't really matter as long as it's vented outside. Venting into the attic is Very Bad -- in the winter, the humid air will condense and (if cold enough) freeze, and you'll effectively have water in the attic.
For any vents, the straighter the run is, the more efficient and quieter it is. Avoid corrugated pipes, and avoid bends and elbows as much as possible. For that reason, going into the soffit almost guarantees you'll have more bends than going through the roof.
As a DIY job, you'll also have to be sure you have the knowledge to cut a hole in the roof. I'd say it'd be far better to go out the side of the house (which is a bit easier to seal) than to go through the roof and cause a leak.

Airport hotels

Love this message. I recently made some important changes in my life so I could "slow down time" to focus on my family. I love your Sloth comparison. My family will have to find your book this week.
This week in my daughter's first grade class, they are studying your artwork and technique. She is absolutely loving it. She spent about 10 minutes this morning explaining to me what she has learned and what she'll be doing today in class to implement some of your techniques. Listening to the enthusiasm in her voice warmed my heart. In fact, she wants to type a little message to you right now...
i like your books! and how you make
your art work! from Avery
Thank you for sharing your imagination with the world! :)

Dropbox gives me pop-up errors about not being able to monitor the file system (that quickly disappear) when it starts up but it still seems to work ok, why is that?
On Linux, the Dropbox client is subject to a default system limit on the number of directories it can monitor for changes. There is a warning regarding this, along the lines of:
This comes up often in the Dropbox Forums, and they have a mention of it in their "Why aren't certain files on one computer syncing to another?" document:
After multiple tries I was still getting the "unable to monitor filesystem" error. I finally figured out why:
100,857 Files, 15,009 Folders
I had to bump my max_user_watches to a higher number.

Can one have leftovers from ones wife when she becomes a nidda being that the leftovers is from the day before she became a nidda?
It is somthing really mutar but yet still leftovers.
There are a number of ways that what are colloquially called leftovers can avoid the status of "shiraei ochel shelah" (remnants of her food). According to the packet my wife got in kallah classes, if eaten on a different plate, the food may be eaten. Similarly, if the wife is not present, the food may be eaten. Both of these are far easier to accomplish if these are leftovers from yesterday.
Like Dov F, I am tempted to compare this to אברי בשר נחירה שהכניסו ישראל עמהן לארץ (Chullin 17a, and see Rosh ad loc.). During the 40 years in the desert, meat killed in a certain way (nechira) was permitted. Upon crossing into Israel, that method of slaughter was no longer acceptable as shechita. Was meat left over from before they crossed the Jordan acceptable, or now that new rules of shechita apply, is the old meat prohibited? This is a very obscure question of halakha seemingly with practical application beyond a few days in history. However, the Rosh says it theoretically applies to any time a new rule is created. Since yesterday the food was permitted (pre-nidda), in theory the ruling about the leftover nechira meat would apply.
From Family Purity by Rabbi Fishel Jacobs
I don't have either of those books or I would look it up. The phrasing "permitted to finish" makes we wonder if it refers only to a case where both are [already] eating from the same plate. As opposed to taking her plate and eating from it.
As far as leftovers from yesterday goes, as soon as she leave the room, or the food is moved to a different plate it becomes mutar.

Is there a definition of what is a 'free monoid' which does not pre-suppose that the natural numbers has already been defined? The definitions that I have been able to track down all use the natural numbers (since sequences/words need them).
In other words, I am trying to define the theory of free monoids (as a signature with sorts, operations and axioms), and I would like to know if I can do this without having the theory of the naturals already defined. For exhibiting/constructing a free monoid, I do expect to need Nat.
Note that my ambient logic is higher-order, so I am fine with a second-order axiomatization. If dependent-types are needed, that would also be acceptable.

I want to encode a group of low-quality MPEG-4 video files to DVD format (to eventually burn to a DVD).
The problem is that when I encode the video, the resulting files are often 2-3x as large as the original video files.
How can I encode the video files so that they are in DVD format, roughly the same quality, and roughly the same file size as the originals?

The prefix macro- is normally used for large things like macroeconomics and macroscopic. How did it come to be used to describe text macros in the programming world?
Sign up
- Anybody can ask a question

- The best answers are voted up and rise to the top
In computing, "macro" was first used with assemblers, which are utilities that perform simple translation of readable mnemonics into machine instructions. Normally a single line in an input to a basic assembler produces a single machine instruction output; the line is commonly referred to as an instruction. Productivity was increased when the use of what were termed macro-instructions were invented. Macro- is of course a standard prefix from the Greek meaning large, and a macroinstruction was a new kind of input line which would generate several machine instructions.
The OED shows a revealing quote from 1959:
This shows use of both the full form, macro instruction, and the abbreviated form, macro. (Quote is from Greenwald & Kane, "The Share 709 System: Programming and Modification", Journal of the ACM 6:133. SCAT ("Symbolic Coder And Translator") was an early macro-assembler.)
From the Computing Dictionary:
Another explanation is that it is a shortening of "macroinstruction" which means:
To follow on from mgkrebbs' fine answer, the SCAT in question is a SHARE 709 assembly program: "SHARE Compiler, Assembler, Translator". Both SCAT and macro are mentioned in papers presented to the Association for Computing Machinery and IIT Research Institute in 1958.
The earliest, ACM's Preprints of summaries of papers presented at the national meeting, tells us "The compiler expands each macro into one or more words of machine code ..." (1958 confirmation):
The next, IITRI's Computer Applications: Proceedings, shows we might have called them pseudos:
Finally, macroinstruction is found in 1956's Proceedings of the Western Joint Computer Conference:

Now that the PvP aspect of Diablo 3 has been released, are Hardcore characters able to compete (they don't have access to the real money auction house, so I was curious)? And if they are able to, if they die, will they be gone forever similar to campaign play?
With the addition of brawling in Patch 1.0.7, the Player vs Player section was added to the Game Guide, which states:
So, no, hardcore characters are not lost!
Blizzard's current position, which will presumably hold until PvP's release, is that due to the rapid death nature of the arena, hardcore characters will not be permanently dead when they die in the PvP arena.

5 Shocking Side Effects of Foods You Eat Every Day
You might have noticed that pretty much every subject is infinitely more complicated than it appears at first glance. Maybe nothing proves this more than our relationship with food. As a kid, it's just "If it tastes good, cram it into your mouth until Mom makes you stop." The you get older and pay a little more attention, and you realize that you have to start reading labels. And if you pay even more attention, you realize that humanity's relationship with what we eat is downright bizarre.
As we have previously discussed, food can and absolutely will affect you in plenty of other ways besides just filling your stomach. And it keeps getting weirder ...
#5. A Common Food Ingredient Apparently Turns You into an Aggressive Dick
Look, you already knew that margarine, the somehow less-healthy alternative to butter, wasn't good for you. And as is the case with many processed products, margarine enjoys its share of wild-ass rumors and urban legends, from its supposedly appalling original color to the one about it being practically plastic. However, the stuff does have one peculiar side effect that is often overlooked: Margarine can turn you into a raging bag of cocks. Of course, we're not being literal (we think). What we're saying is that margarine increases your aggression.
"Bring it on, bitches -- I've been choking down Pop-Tarts since 7 a.m."
What's worse, it's not just margarine. Any food that has dietary trans fatty acids can do it: cake mixes, frozen dinners, cookies, french fries, doughnuts ... you name your favorite food, chances are it has copious amounts of dTFA lounging about.
Everyone knows that trans fats are linked to a multitude of health problems, and science has had a blast finding out all the ways they can mess us up. Recently, researchers have gotten curious about whether trans fats could affect our personality in the same way that they wreck our physical health. So they recruited nearly a thousand test subjects from all walks of life and studied their behavior, rating their levels of aggression and comparing it to their dTFA intake.
"Keep snapping pictures and you'll have to pull your ass cheeks apart to take the next one."
After adjusting for other possible factors like sex, age, and alcohol and drug abuse, researchers were left with some pretty condemning evidence: The consumption of dTFA has a significant effect on a person's irritability and aggression levels. In fact, the dTFA consumed consistently and accurately predicted how much of an irritable dick the person was.
Of course, the first question you should ask when hearing about this type of connection is "Are you saying that doughnuts make people dicks, or that being a dick simply makes people hungry for doughnuts?" Well, the theory at this point is that these chemicals block your ability to create the beneficial omega-3 fatty acids your brain needs. So, if your roommate is acting like a dick, throw out all of his snacks and replace them with celery sticks. That'll cheer his ass right up!
#4. Hot Drinks Actually Cool Your Body
You're mowing the lawn on a hot summer day. The combination of heat, humidity, and uncharacteristic manual labor is drenching you in sweat, to the point that the crazy hobo living under your porch barely even throws his poop at you for fear of getting it dirty. Still, it's a good day -- all you need to make it perfect is a drink to cool you down. But should your thirst be quenched with lemonade? Beer? Perhaps iced water?
Nope! By drinking any of those, you're doing precisely jack shit to cool your sun-scorched ass. If you want to cool down, your drink needs to be hot.
"It's going to be a scorcher today -- Glenda, warm up my morning vodka."
It sounds wrong to the point of triggering physical disgust to even think about, but those of you who have visited (or lived in) a really hot country -- say, India -- know that the people there have a tendency to drink hot tea. They know that that particular beverage cools them off far better than the coldest of cold drinks could, because they're actually using the human body's natural cooling process instead of working against it.
When you do the seemingly reasonable thing for a hot day and drink something chilled, the information the receptors in your mouth receive is: "Whoa, this shit is cold." They pass this intel on to the brain, which in turn thinks that the cool sensation amounts to everything being nice and chilly in the outside environment and moves on to other, more pressing matters. But drink something hot, and your receptors rush up to Mama Brain to complain about the heat. The brain immediately responds by turning on the body's built-in cooling mechanism: sweat.
"After this microwaved pickle juice, I'm gonna have to go wash my balls."
Yes, drinking something hot will make you sweat more, but that's what you want. The same principle works with spicy food, which goes a long way toward explaining why warmer areas enjoy their chili peppers.
Oh, and another thing: If you're attempting to pull this off when you're wearing clothes that won't allow suitable evaporation, it won't do you any good. So if you embrace the hot drink strategy at a relative's wedding, prepare for an evening of shambling around in sweat-drenched formal wear while everyone else takes care to stand upwind. What we're trying to say is that a proper cooling program requires a hot drink and a big dose of nudity.
#3. The Sight of Meat Calms You Down (if You're a Guy)
If you get your ass kicked by a huge dude in a biker bar, would you assume that the guy is a meat eater or a vegetarian? Hell, has a vegetarian ever kicked another person's ass in the history of the world? It's not just humans, either -- dangle a steak in front of a tiger and you'll lose your arm. All of those aggressive hunter instincts come right to the surface. Isn't this why men like barbecues? What makes them feel manlier than the sight of hunks of charred meat?
Eh, doesn't count. They still think of that as clothed meat.
But, when researchers actually got around to testing this thesis, the results were ... surprising. Where male dogs enter full-on drooling aggro mode upon seeing a delicious lump of carcass, human men actually calm down when they see meat.
To research this, scientists set up an intricate fake "multitasking" experiment where a bunch of guys had to observe an actor reading a script. Every time the reader made a mistake, they had to punish the guy (who just faked pain) with a sharp noise, the loudness and hurtitude of which depended entirely on the punisher's whim. During this process, some of the men were shown neutral images, while others were subjected to pictures of delicious, delicious meat.
Ah yes, and the confounding neutral meat.
Imagine the researchers' surprise when the guys who were most aggressive in doling out punishment were the ones who hadn't been shown food porn. Meanwhile, the meat-viewing men remained cool and laid back in their actions.
It makes sense, if you think about it. After all, meat is what you get after the hunt is already over. So when a guy has meat in his field of vision, his brain knows that the prey has already been killed and there's no call for murder instincts anymore. Therefore, it tells him to relax and enjoy the delicious spoils of the war he wrought against the animal kingdom.

I can probably do it either way - because I'm catching all errors in a common controller class and altering them before sending them along. I could probably manage it so that I change them over to DirectExceptions.
However, the reason I want to catch on ALL errors is that, typically, the user would get a 500 page if a server error occurs. With a full AJAX app, these requests could just "disappear" from the user's point of view. (you see it in firebug just fine, but the user would see nothing) By having ALL exceptions get sent through, I can show the user that their attempt failed and collect more information.

Another suggestion:
Below are some changes to the RequestDataConvertor that will allow it to pass in arrays from the JS back to the methods. Arrays get converted into a List<object> type. There might be an easy way to cast this List<object> to a List<int> or a List<string> inside the Direct library, but I haven't taken a stab at it yet.
internal class RequestDataConverter : JsonConverter { public override object ReadJson(JsonReader reader, Type objectType, JsonSerializer serializer) { var data = new List<object>(); var dataArray = JToken.ReadFrom(reader); if (!dataArray.HasValues) return null; foreach (JToken dataItem in dataArray) { if (dataItem is JObject) { data.Add(dataItem); } else if (dataItem is JValue) { data.Add((dataItem as JValue).Value); } else if (dataItem is JArray) { data.Add(ConvertJArray(dataItem as JArray)); } else { throw new ArgumentException("Arguments of this type are not supported."); } } return data.ToArray(); } private List<object> ConvertJArray(JArray item) { List<object> output = new List<object>(); foreach (JToken dataItem in item.AsJEnumerable()) { if (dataItem is JObject) { output.Add(dataItem); } else if (dataItem is JValue) { output.Add((dataItem as JValue).Value); } else if (dataItem is JArray) { output.Add(this.ConvertJArray(dataItem as JArray)); } else { throw new ArgumentException("Arguments of this type are not supported."); } } return output; } public override bool CanConvert(Type objectType) { return true; } public override void WriteJson(JsonWriter writer, object value, JsonSerializer serializer) { throw new NotImplementedException(); } }

Passing one-dimensional arrays from JS to the methods on the server is already supported in version 0.7. What you have added is support for multi-dimensional arrays, but it isn't complete. Similar changes have to be made to DirectMethodInvoker class. But do you think it's worth the effort? Personally I don't. I mean, it is such an extreme use case, that I don't think anyone will ever need it. Besides, if you find yourself passing multi-dimensional arrays, chances are you're doing something wrong and should revisit the code.
There might be an easy way to cast this List<object> to a List<int> or a List<string>
17 Nov 2009 8:57 PM #124
First, what other changes? This code is working fine afaik, my arrays are making it to the backend just fine.
Second, apologies, I didn't look in .7 yet, mainly because I've been moving ahead with my development and had already forked for the error data requirement. I will take a look.
Third, what effort? This took about 10 minutes and was running. I expected to be able to send an array of values back from some custom front end code, your .6 code didn't support it and instead threw errors, so I added it.
Fourth, I don't have a case for multidimensional arrays either, but I also haven't written every app that will ever be needed. It's a part of json, and as a developer using the library I would at the minimum be confused why I can't send valid json through. And again it's basically zero work to implement with json.net, just break out a loop and it can be arrays all the way down if someone needs it. (actually array stores use md arrays so it's not entirely out of the realm of possibilty that someone, at some time, may need one too,)
Finally re the list coversion, no there isn't a simple one line way to do it, but there is a call that will call out to other functions for the conversion, that could likely use reflection to properly cast the list. I might figure it out at some point, but since I don't need it right this second, it's not high on my list. It, again, was merely a suggestion of another helper to expand the library and make it more user friendly.
Anyway sorry about not checking 0.7, I'll just keep my suggestions and code to myself. Thanks for the base code, I'll just add on what I need from here since I apparently have such amazingly custom needs.
18 Nov 2009 7:51 AM #125
v0.7 is doing everything you need including passing arrays Except global exception handling that you asked for earlier. I will be releasing v0.7.0.1 soon with a few bug fixes and optimizations.
24 Nov 2009 10:34 PM #126
Ext.Direct.Mvc v0.8 is released.
I have decided to bump the version number to 0.8 because of the number of changes.
The download link is in the first post of this thread.
* Added: All exceptions now return to the client as a direct response with type "exception" so they can be handled globally by listenening to the "exception" event. * Added: New boolean configuration option called "debug" (optional, default to false). When an exception occures on the server and this option is set to true, the exception response contains a property called "where" with full stack trace. This option should never be set to true in production environment because of security concerns. * Exception response can also contain a property called "exceptionData" with additional user-defined information about the exception. It is set from Exception.Data. To read about Exception.Data and how to set it see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...tion.data.aspx * Changed: Direct() method signatures. Converters are now passed as params array as opposed to List<JsonConverter> as it was done before. * Added: Easy way to return a custom server-side events to the client. To do that simply return the result of one of the DirectEvent() overloaded methods from you action and listen to your event on the client as described in the documentation to Ext.Direct class in "Server side events" section: http://www.extjs.com/deploy/dev/docs/?class=Ext.Direct * Removed: DirectException class. * Misc: Bug fixes, better code organization.
Ext.Direct.Mvc is now licensed under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License version 3. A copy of the license can be found in the copying.txt and copying_lesser.txt files included in the distribution. A few people asked for it so here you go.
I was thinking a lot about your suggestions regarding exception handling and came to a conclusion that it makes total sense in an AJAX app, so I went ahead and implemented everything you asked for. The reason I chose the name "exceptionData" for the property that contains additional data about the exception is because Ext.Direct treats "data" property in the same way as the "result" property, i.e. as a valid returned data. I find it odd, but it is the fact. Anyways, thanks for your suggestions.

Great work.
I haven't had the time to test the new 0.8 version. But I think it's a great step forwards.
I have another request (or is it already implemented?).
Would it be possible to use gzip if possible to let IIS gzip the generated Javascript dynamicly?
Ofcourse only when gzip is possible. To be checked in the field Request.Headers["Accept-Encoding"].
HttpResponse Response = HttpContext.Current.Response; string AcceptEncoding = HttpContext.Current.Request.Headers["Accept-Encoding"]; if (AcceptEncoding.Contains("gzip")) { Response.Filter = new System.IO.Compression.GZipStream(Response.Filter, System.IO.Compression.CompressionMode.Compress); Response.AppendHeader("Content-Encoding", "gzip"); } else { Response.Filter = new System.IO.Compression.DeflateStream(Response.Filter, System.IO.Compression.CompressionMode.Compress); Response.AppendHeader("Content-Encoding", "deflate"); }
I have a
PumpsController: DirectController { //Action ActionResult GetById(int id) { return Direct(data); } }
Pumps.Get(id, new function(response)...);
Would it be possible to set a global namespace in the config and/ or set a namespace for a controller through an attribute class?
Morion.Controllers.Product.Pumps.Get(id, new function(response)...);

Hi veenvliet.morion,
Thanks for the ideas. I will think about gziping. I do like the idea of being able to overwrite method names, I'll see what I can do about it.
Regarding the namespaces, however, Ext.Direct supports only one namespace for all your direct actions. It creates client-side stubs from a API configuration object of a very strict structure, and there is nothing I can do about it. In my implementation you specify the namespace in the web.config.
26 Nov 2009 12:26 AM #129
Thanks for your reaction (by the way, this is my business/ premium account. In private I'm maxigroovy )
The Gzip is only a matter of adding the header to the response. IIS will take care of the rest.
Renaming methods can also be a bless when having the same method name with different arguments (like you can change the webmethod name in a webservice with the same purpose).
You mean it can be done set the namespace in the web.config?
<ext.direct providerName="Morion.REMOTING_API" apiUrl="DirectApi.ashx" routerUrl="DirectRouter.ashx" assembly="TESTClient" dateFormat="JavaScript"/>

Citywide Neighborhood Watch Organization Meeting to be held March 31st.
Montpelier Police Department and the Bear Lake County Sheriff's office are working hard to protect your homes and property, but frankly, we need your help. We need your eyes and ears and voice to report what you see and hear. More than that, we need partners who will approach crime prevention in a proactive, community-oriented endeavor. Neighborhood Watch is the blueprint for such a partnership.
Neighborhood Watch is simply getting to know your neighbors and neighbors helping neighbors. Working together to make your neighborhood a better place to live will increase the livability in our area. Neighborhood Watch is crime prevention at its best. It's more than locks and hardware. It is citizens working in partnership with your police department. Community involvement and being aware of your surroundings are key elements for an effective Neighborhood Watch.
Today's Neighborhood Watch programs incorporate activities that not only address crime prevention issues, but also restore pride and unity to a neighborhood and prepare for emergencies.
It is not uncommon to see members of Neighborhood Watch groups participating in community activities that strive to improve the quality of life for residents.
A meeting to establish the framework of Neighborhood Watch in Bear Lake County will be held March 31st at 7:00 in the City Council Chambers. Your input and ideas are important to us. Anyone who is interested in Neighborhood Watch is welcome to attend. Your police and sheriff departments are asking for volunteers to help create a Neighborhood Watch advisory committee. The role of the committee will be to:
A Neighborhood Watch program is not a substitute for law enforcement. Do not take actions that will put you or others in danger. When you find a problem, call dispatch, at 945-2121 or 911 to report emergencies.

I was recently reading an article about cryogenics, there are around 200 bodies frozen in cryogenics labs around the world, and in the article they said that in the near future they may be able to resuscitate the bodies and bring them back to life. What is the Jewish view on cryonics and "bringing people back to life" using cryonics? Is it allowed or disallowed?

See our discussion and the sources brought here where it is shown that the pikuach nefesh of reviving a dead person is different than that of saving a live person in that it only overrides Torah commandments if there is a good chance (defined by some to be >50%) of success. Cyrogenics has about as low a success rate as one could imagine, so it would seem that the biblical obligation of a speedy burial (cf Yoreh Deah 357) is not overridden.
I found also this letter where a Rabbi P Waldman of Aish Hatorah forbade using cyronics.
Insofar as I do not believe there is any clear halachic conclusions on this I will offer the following speculation:
If medical science comes to a place where there is sufficient possibility that a particular ailment can be treated in the future, or perhaps even a hope once this process has been established in other cases, then I believe it can be considered squarely within the realm of pikuach nefesh and would over ride any concern about k'vod hameis (respectful treatment of corpses/quick burial). As an analogy I would say that this isn't inherently any different than any contemporary case where someone who is clinically and halachicly dead (albeit only briefly) is resuscitated. In such a case we are not concerned about burial.

10 Classic Toys (And Why They Suck)
Whatever new-fangled video games and hover boards are hitting toy store shelves this Christmas, there are some classics that just never go away. We're talking about toys that go back decades and even centuries. Why? We're not sure, because most of them suck.
#10. Slinky
What is it:
A floppy spring-shaped thing that's supposed to walk down stairs and was designed by Richard James (later of James Industries) in 1943. We're guessing the design phase consisted of him drawing a curly squiggle on the back of a napkin while on the telephone.
Why it sucks:
Throughout human history, we highly doubt anyone ever claimed that going down some stairs was a fun activity, yet this premise is entirely what Richard James based his toy on. And, it seems, two generations of parents agreed with him. They rushed out to buy their offspring a Slinky for Christmas, instead of a Total Death Chaos Raygun 3000 or other similarly named toys that promised instant awesomeness.
Those children promptly ran up to the top of the stairs, pushed the Slinky off the top step and watched it flop down to the next where it would stay, completely inert until they nudged it again. Then, it would roll sideways off the step and lay sadly against the wall. Sighing, children the world over would then pack their Slinky away then go outside and do something more fun, like poke some dog shit with a stick.
What can make it better:
It's hard to make something that falls down stairs better, but James Industries could have tried. Maybe, it would have been more interesting if it had negotiated something trickier than a staircase--a cluttered floor, a minefield, one of those tire drills they always have at the NFL combine. How they could get a spring to do that, we don't know, but then again, we never claimed to be toy makers, James Industries.
Fun fact:
The Slinky has been named the Official State Toy of Pennsylvania as of Nov 4, 2001. We're thinking the Amish might have had a hand in that.
#9. Space Hopper
What is it:
An inflated rubber ball with a handle thing. Originally called the Space Hopper, it also has been marketed as a "Hoppity Hop," "Hop-A-Roo" and any number of equally retarded names. The idea is that a person sits on the ball, grasps the handle and propels himself along using the power of bounce.
Why it sucks:
A Space Hopper is an awesome idea in premise, and the kids in the commercials always look like they're having a blast. Every kid who watches it sees himself bouncing over houses or zipping across the yard as if mounted on a round, rubbery steed. The name alone suggests that with one bounce, a child can be launched into the stratosphere.
In reality, the bouncing properties of a Space Hopper equate to those of a dropped egg. And, forward movement is approximately that of an asthmatic beetle with two missing legs. Still, parents around the world saw those ads and, for many of us, at least one Christmas featured a huge, almost round wrapped gift under the tree.
"Gee, what do you think that is, Sport!," your father would say.
"Gosh, I just don't know." You'd lie, while secretly hoping it might be two BB guns and a poster of the chick from Weird Science wrapped up with a soon to hatch Gremlin. But, you knew you were just fooling yourself.
What can make it better:
Just making it out of some kind of actual bouncy material would help. As it is, you feel like you're really doing all the work, trying to drag yourself and the ball across the yard with the sheer force of your pelvic thrusts. Though, we seem to remember the teenage girls in our neighborhood saying it was a brilliant toy, for some reason, and that it could never be improved. We all sneered at that, because what did girls know?
Fun fact:
Ashrita Furman from New York, holds the world-record for the fastest 100-meter dash on a Space Hopper. Ashrita Furman is a serial record breaker, and holds 25 current world records, including the longest pool cue balance, the longest underwater juggling and the longest pointless existence on Earth.
#8. Ball in a Cup
What is it?:
Sometimes called a "balero" depending on what part of the world you're in, it's a wooden cup on a handle, attached to a ball on a string. The idea is to toss the ball into the air and catch it in the cup. And then you...well, nothing. That's it.
Why it sucks:
Catching things is not that hard, and catching a ball in a cup doesn't make the task any trickier, especially when the ball is attached to the cup by a piece of string about 18-inches long. The re-playability factor is also sadly lacking: Once you catch the ball in the cup, that's it. There's no smaller cup to move on to, or bigger ball or longer string. Thus, when a child is presented with this toy from well-meaning parents on their 7th birthday, they duly toss the ball into the cup three or four times, then put it down and go back to drawing on a younger sibling's face with permanent markers.
What can make it better:
Removing the string. At least children could fling a ball without a cup connected to it hard up into the air or hard at each other's heads. And, as a plus, the ball would quickly get lost, meaning they would never have to play with the fucking thing again.
Fun fact:
The TV show Family Guy parodied the toy in an episode, and pretty much captured the futility of the whole thing.
#7. Hula Hoop
What is it:
A hoop, usually made out of plastic, that can be twirled around the hips, waist or neck. It was 'invented' in 1958 by Richard Knerr and Arthur "Spud" Melin, founders of the Wham-O toy company.
Why it sucks:
"Playing" Hula Hoop involves holding the hoop around you at waist level, then trying to spin it at a rate approaching 1,000 rpms. Then you stand with your feet planted on the spot, spasmodically twitch your waist and hips as the hula Hoop drops to the floor. You sigh, pick the thing up again, and restart. But this time, you manage to keep it off the ground, at which point the Hula Hoop ricochets up your body and smacks you in the face.
Chances are there will be someone nearby whose body seems to be made of rubber, who can somehow gyrate their way to having five of the fucking things spinning around their waist and neck. They'll claim in a loud voice that it's so easy, that you just have to put your hips into it and you'll be fine. It is always OK to throw rocks at this person.
What can make it better:
Ignoring its toy factor altogether and instead, marketing it to tubby people as a novelty belt.
Fun fact:
The current endurance record for hula hooping is held by Roxane Rose, who hula hooped for 90 hours in April 1987, probably due to some kind of mental illness.
#6. Aerobie Sprint Flying Ring
What is it?:
Frisbee designed to be thrown over great distances.
Why it sucks:
Frisbees are quite fun, for the short term, especially when three or four people are in a park and tossing it between themselves. The Aerobie attempts to improve on this with a design that enables it to be flung over great distances, sometimes upwards of 200 yards. This feat of toy engineering has the effect of rendering the toy useless for every child whose yard isn't the size of a football field.
A game of Aerobie usually consisted of you throwing the Aerobie to a friend, or more accurately, toward a black speck on the horizon. Your friend will then have to go looking for the Aerobie, which has been predictably blown off course and ended up in a dog-shit infested clump of bushes 150 feet away. After an indeterminate amount of time, your friend emerges, covered in burrs, twigs and poop, and flings the Aerobie back at you. The Aerobie will, naturally, sail 20 feet over your head and land in the stagnant pond 100 meters behind you. The game will then be held up indefinitely as you and your friend decide "motherfuck an Aerobie" and go home.
What can make it better:
Toy makers stop dicking around with something that was fine the way it was.
Fun fact:
The word "Aerobie" can be used to refer to the sport of ultimate Frisbee, which is a non-contact sport and thus totally pointless.

1934 Dodge Pickup - The KeeperWritten by Eric Geisert on September 1, 2009 Carl Olsson's '34 Dodge Pickup
It's one of the more curious obsessions: hot rodding. What's more, have you ever known a hot rodder to be content in having just one vehicle? Neither have we. Never satisfied with having just one, most rodders either (A), have a sizeable collection of cars in various levels of completion or (B), want a sizeable collection of vehicles in various stages of completion.
Some rodders like a particular type of vehicle, such as the '34 Ford, while others are a bit more eclectic, like Carl Olsson. Carl, who lives in the tiny California town of Copperopolis (sounds like a town you'd find on the way to the Emerald City, doesn't it?), happens to like pickup trucks.
Not content with one or two, Carl currently owns several pickups, including a '29 Ford, a '55 Chevy (with a '91 bed), a '38 Ford, a '63 Ranchero, a '35 GMC rat rod truck, a '36 Dodge, plus a '34 Dodge. That's in addition to a pair of '34 Plymouth coupes, a '50 Stude, a '26 Buick sedan (with a 425 Nailhead with six twos), and a '56 Ford sedan. Did we mention "eclectic"?
A hot rodder for many years, Carl spent his spare time building cars and, when his son, Travis, was old enough, he worked alongside his dad out in the garage. A few years ago the pair began looking for an old Dodge truck to work on when Carl happened across a great looking '34 Dodge at a Goodguys event in Pleasanton. Upon closer inspection Carl believed it was one of the best looking trucks he'd ever seen, and ended up talking with the owner, Bill Osiakowski, for some time, gathering as many mental notes as he could.
A couple of years later Carl was again at the Pleasanton event, and just before he left for the day he thought he'd swing through the "cars for sale" area before he took off. When he rounded the corner of a building he came face-to-face with that same red Dodge truck that he'd seen a few years back. Astonished to see it with a "for sale" sign in the window, Carl again talked with Bill and told him he'd stop by the shop to check the truck out further if it didn't sell that weekend. The next Monday Carl hooked up his trailer and went to see Bill and, as the truck hadn't sold, quickly cut a check and brought the pickup home (Carl comments it was like "it was meant to be" that he own the truck).
Osiakowski, who owns Kingpin Hot Rods in San Jose, California, had built the Dodge from the ground up. The chassis is a stock Dodge frame, though it's now been boxed. A Maverick 8-inch (2.79:1) with parallel leaf springs went in out back along with a set of Gabriel shocks. Up front a Fatman Fabrications Mustang II IFS went in that featured dropped spindles, 11-inch disc brakes, and narrowed control arms from Heidts
The truck rolls on Ford-style Wheel Vintiques wires (15x7 and 8) wrapped in BFGoodrich Silvertown radials (185/70 and 205/70). An 18-gallon Rock Valley stainless steel gas tank also found its way into the truck, as did a Corvette dual-circuit master cylinder with an 8-inch power booster.
For power a '68 Chevy V-8, outfitted with an RV grind camshaft from Comp Cams, was topped with a polished aluminum Weiand manifold and an Edelbrock 650 carb that feeds a pair of fuelie 2.02/1.60 camel-hump heads. A Cooling Components electric fan and Griffin aluminum radiator supplies the engine with cooled water, and a ceramic-coated header system with a pair of Borla mufflers pulls the exhaust out of the motor. The whole shebang is backed to a TH350 trans.
The body was really worked over by Osiakowski, as the top was filled. The crank hole was also shaved and a new polished aluminum insert was installed. Bill also fab'd a new bed, going as far as creating new bed posts, too. Another trick addition was a hide-away license plate, which retracts into the side of the custom rolled rear pan (fab'd by Scott Cowan), only to reappear when the key is turned on. Other mods include inverting the door handles and widening the rear fenders.
Bill, along with Alex Gambino, was responsible for doing the body work on the pickup before Alex covered it with a custom-mix red using RM paints. The world-travelling pinstriper Herb Martinez then came along and stripped the truck in a classic Tommy "The Greek" style line job.
Inside the cab a custom bench seat was made before everything was covered in Lexus Beige leather and vinyl. A Camaro steering column (topped with a Lecarra wheel) was attached to the stock dash, which features a stock gauge cluster that had been reworked by United Speedometer. After a Painless Wiring system was used the truck was ready for the road, though it did not have very many miles on it before Bill decided to sell it.
Upon acquisition, the truck immediately became a center-piece to the collection Carl was in the midst of putting together. He and Travis, who in time had become quite a good welder, again started looking for a project the two of them could work on, but an accident took the 23-year-old's life and, understandably, the wind out of Carl's sails.
Though losing a child is something that any parent will never get over, Carl, over time, slowly began to refocus his thoughts and energies into his garage (a rather large barn outfitted with everything a builder might want, including a couple of lifts) and his cars. He is currently looking for a truck project that he'd like to build in honor of his son and, knowing something of Carl's style and attention to detail, it will undoubtedly be a keeper and something we'd all like to own.

Kingpin Hot Rods in San Jose, CA, did the upholstery work, covering the custom bench seat and the rest of the interior with Lexus Beige leather and vinyl.The dash is stock in shape, but the stock gauge cluster was updated by United Speedometer and wired with a Painless Wiring kit. Finishing off the insides is a Lecarra wheel mounted to an '87 Camaro column.Yes, it's a '34 Dodge, but builder Bill Osiakowski customized many areas of the truck, including a license plate that horizontally slides back under the custom bed and a contemporary Dodge emblem on the tailgate.

This question already has an answer here:
Here is the list of 12 tribes of Israel from Genesis, Numbers and Revelation.
I sorted them according to the list in Genesis 29-30. In Numbers, Levi is replaced by Ephraim and Manasseh who replaced Joseph also. But in Revelation 7 Dan is removed and replaced by Manasseh.
Why are these list different? Why is Dan removed from the list?

This question arises from my discussion with a Master student. It concerns with the following situation: let $\phi: R \to S$ be a homomorphism between Noetherian commutative rings. Suppose the $R$-module structure of $S$ has a presentation matrix with all entries in the Jacobson radical of $R$ (so $S$, as $R$-module, is the cokernel of such matrix). Let $M$ be a finitely generated, projective $R$-module.
Question: If $M \otimes_R S$ is $S$-free, must $M$ be $R$-free?
Remark: this is trivially true if $R$ is semi-local. It is easy and well-known if $\phi$ is surjective. Without some conditions on $S$, the assertion is false, for example if we take $S$ to be a residue field of a maximal ideal in $R$ and $M$ be some projective, non-free module.
This kind of statement sounds like it should be in Bourbaki or EGA or the stack project (if it is true!). Does anyone know a proof or counter example?

There is another who testifies about me, and I know that the testimony that he testifies about me is true.

Jesus is almost certainly referring to the Father.
One of the main themes of the discourse in chapter five is the relationship between the Son and the Father. The Son does only what he sees the Father doing. Jesus is working on the Sabbath because his Father is working on the Sabbath. The Father raises the dead and gives life, so the Son also gives life. The Father is to be honored by all, so the Son also is to be honored by all. And so on.
So when we get to verse 31 where Jesus claims that his testimony is not valid if he testifies about himself, it again has to do with his relationship to the Father. If the Father is not also testifying about Jesus, then Jesus' own testimony about himself is not valid. Jesus would be operating on his own, rather than in accord with the Father. But Jesus offers here (as throughout the gospel) the fact of the works (perhaps chiefly, but not limited to, the signs) he has received from the Father (verse 36). The Father testifies about the Son by giving the Son works, which the Son does.
This is corroborated in 8:13-18, where Jesus responds to the Pharisees having challenged Jesus with his own words from 5:31. He explains that his testimony about himself is valid, but, he is not in point of fact the only witness: "I am one who testifies for myself; my other witness is the Father, who sent me."
This sending is another theme throughout John, closely linked with works the Father gives the Son. The Father sent the Son, the Son does the works of the Father in the Father's name. So Jesus appeals to his sending and to his miracles as the basis for belief:
As you point out, some commentators, like John Gill, argue on the basis of verses 33-36a that Jesus is referring to John the Baptist. Under this reading, Jesus first offers John as a witness in 33-35, and then in 36a moves to yet a stronger witness, as if he were saying, "Not only do I have John as a witness, but I have another witness even greater still.
Instead, 33-35 should be understood as an interlude. When Jesus states in 32 that he has another who testifies, the Jews he's speaking too might likely have thought he was referring to John the Baptist. Jesus therefor clarifies his remark. I would paraphrase 33-36a so: "Yes, you sent for John. And yes, he has testified truthfully about me. And I mention John so that you might at least believe his testimony since you regard him so well (for a little while anyway). But I'm talking about a witness greater than John..."
The immediate context of the passage in question (John 3:32) concerns the baptism by John the Baptist, which is mentioned in John 5:33-36, when the Father's voice from heaven testified and identified Jesus as the son of God. This testimony was a literal, audible "testimonial" voice of the Father to which Jesus refers in John 3:32.

A doll
"This is a mint-condition, NRFB action figure." said the nerd as he held up his Han Solo doll.

A doll by another name, differing from a doll by being designed for tough, aggressive, "masculine" situations. Used by males to disguise their insecurity with being associated with traditionally "feminine" things. Just like a kilt is not caled a "skirt".
"Action figure"? What does that mean anyway? Is it an active thing? What does it mean? Call it what you like it, but any way that you look at it, an "action figure" is a doll by another name; "That which we call a rose/By any other word would smell as sweet."-Juliet, Romeo and Juliet

A plastic figure that usually does an action (hence the name). Are usually owned by 10 year old boys who incest that they're NOT or HAVE anything in common with a doll and 40 year old virgin nerds with a capital N who collect them along with dolls and not allow any part of it to leave the case until it becomes of ulimate value.

NOT a doll. Dolls are for girls. Action figures are much more masculine and cool. Often depicting certain super-heroes or video game/movie characters, and sometimes real people.
"Hey, man what are you doing playing with that batman doll?"
"Hey! This is an ACTION FIGURE! Not a doll.... Dolls are for girls..."
"Hey! This is an ACTION FIGURE! Not a doll.... Dolls are for girls..."

I'm new to wordpress and tried to Google and looked up codex but it didn't help. I downloaded a free theme from Github and I'm trying to learn how to make a theme by looking at its code. In the header.php I found this piece
<nav class="mainnav" role="navigation">
<?php wp_nav_menu( array('menu' => 'Main Menu', 'container' => 'false' )); ?>
I couldn't get this part "
array('menu' => 'Main Menu', 'container' => 'false' ));"
Also I couldn't find the navigation markup anywhere in the theme.
