The Town of Stockton-on-Tees
The borough of Stockton-on-Tees, in the North East of England, has a population of about 175,000 and, since 1996, has been unitary authority. Prior to then, Stockton-on-Tees was a district of the now defunct metropolitan county of Cleveland, which had been formed in 1974. After the abolition of Cleveland in 1996, part of the borough of Stockton-on-Tees (including the core of the town itself and other areas that had been part of County Durham until 1974) was placed for ceremonial purposes in County Durham, although the area to the east of the river Tees, that had been part of the North Riding of Yorkshire, was placed for ceremonial purposes in North Yorkshire. From 1968 to 1974, Stockton-on-Tees was part of the county borough of Teeside, which had merged the municipal borough of Stockton-on-Tees (with different boundaries from the present borough) with the county borough of Middlesbrough. The world's first railway line, opened in 1825, ran from Stockton to Darlington.

I have heard about cases (during the period of the late Rishonim) where a Posek or a Beis Din meted out a harsh punishment to an individual for their breach of halacha in order to protect their community from coming close to doing the same aveirah. The case I heard about involved illicit relations, but in any case has anyone heard of such a concept and can you please provide sources/proof?

Are there cases of a one-time (extreme) punishment that rabbis meted for the sake of a community's commitment to Torah?
There are many examples of this, and in fact there is a book devoted to this topic: העונשין אחר חתימת התלמוד--for one example, see e.g., תשובות הרא"ש כלל י"ז סימן ח
I'm not sure if this exactly address ur question properly, but there is a Gemara (Sanhedrin 58b) that discusses lifting up your hand to hit someone (without actually hitting him). According to Rav Huna there, his "hand should be cut off." The Gemara even goes further to say that rav Huna actually did this one time (רב הונא קץ ידא). Now, seemingly this is not a prohibition which would actually require such a punishment, because that is not one of bet din's methods of punishment (moreover, even though rav Huna brought a source from a Pasuk that his hand should be cut, I think we can fairly assume that's more of an asmachta than a Halachic source). So maybe we can explain that rav Huna did this to enforce the rules, etc.
There is an interesting, albeit hypothetical, case in Scripture for this sort of a thing. After the incident with Uriah and Bat Sheva, the prophet Nathan comes to King David (Shmuel II 12:1-4) and relates to him an incident in a parable:
The halachic penalty the rich man was obligated in was for stealing and slaughtering a sheep, so he was should've been sentenced to a 4-sheep penalty payment, but instead, on top of the payment, King David sentences him to death (12:5), presumably to set him as an example for the people.

Did I really need to go to ER for this?!?
I cut off a small chunk of the pad on my middle finger while coring an apple. Well, cut off may not be right because it reattached quickly. After I slowed the bleed to a minimum, I called my Doc and they we flabbergasted that I hadn't gone to the ER yet. So, I went.
And got superglued, steri-stripped, tetanus shotted, and sent on my merry way.
I'm thinking I just wasted a big copay for peace of mind. Thoughts?
For your viewing pleasure: (Not graphic)
32 Answers answer
Probably best to get it looked at and get the tetanus shot. Better than having your finger rot off from infection a few days from now.
@thunderthighs: Agreed. Also getting it fixed up right can help it heal faster than on its own and can lessen the pain of healing. It's usually better safe than sorry.
urgent care would have been as good and saved you a few hundred bucks.
Situations like these are why HSA 's were so nice
Meh, if it was a clean knife and not too deep I wouldn't have worried about it personally.
Yes TC. Yes, you should have gone to the ER for that, or at least Urgent Care as, @kamikazeken said. You would have wound up in the ER later, most likely because it would have gotten infected and it would be much much worse than it is now.
I wonder if your finger-print will change on that finger now.
I hurt myself all the time and don't go to the doctor. The only time I remember going to the emergency room was when I broke my back and had to take an ambulance. Other than that, I clean out the cuts myself and bandage them up myself.
The latest event happened in July when my bird bit me because she didn't want me to install her flight suit. My finger is still there, no infections, no residual scars, nothing.
Not saying this is the correct procedure but, for me, I only go when absolutely necessary.
That one can go both ways. It's good that you got a Tetanus shot, especially if you were due for one anyway, because they also protect from Pertussis (whooping cough - making a comeback).
A few months ago, I sliced the backside of my finger open (taking the pedal off a bike, the wrench slipped and I punched the gears). Blood was running out of my finger. I washed it out, poured some iodine on it, bandaged it up, and went to work. Afterward, my wife made me paranoid about Tetanus and Staph, so I went in to the doctor. He used SteriStrips on the cut, gave me a Tetanus shot, and I was on my way.
It turned out that the cut was a lot deeper than I thought. I have a funny purple scar on the back of my finger now.
@lumpthar: How long can you wait from the time you get cut until you need to get the tetnis shot? Could you schedule a regular appointment with your primary care physician or is it emergency room worthy?
I can't see from the picture how much of your finger was cut off. If it was small enough that you wouldn't mind if that part fell off because it didn't heal then you could wait a day or two for the tetanus. Your hands are an important instrument for everyday use so is that a part you want to risk? It would be a pain to have delayed healing because you use your hands so much, also it could affect your ability to feel things since the fingerpad is the most sensitive if you want to feel texture. If you really want to know if you wasted your money, ask the ER doc what would have been the consequences if you had not come.
Whether it was necessary or not to go to the ER all depends on your own knowledge of medical care. If you know how to clean the wound thoroughly, apply the correct ointment(s), and bandage it yourself, then you would have been fine. (This is also assuming you didn't go all the way to the bone with the cut. If you see bone GO TO THE DOCTOR/ER IMMEDIATELY) If you were not up to date on your Tetanus shot/booster then you should get that from your doctor, and I'm sure they'd gladly ($$) double check your finger at the same time.
If that happened to me (and it did) I wouldn't go, but that's just my decision. I went through the same situation as you did but the cut was on the side of my middle finger right below the first joint bone. The flap of skin was nearly cut clean off if the edge of my fingernail didn't "soften" the blow. I just wrapped it up and continued wrapping it till it stop bleeding. Although it was annoying for the next few days since I didn't want to get it wet, it eventually healed and the scar is almost gone. However, the lil incident turned into a somewhat callus. My finger is fine and is good as new.
The various times I went to the hospital was when I split the back of my ears.. had to get 7 stitches and another time when I dislocated my right knee.
Apples : 1
thumperchick: 0
I probably wouldn't have gone. But I guess better safe than sorry.
Glad you're ok, and good thing you didn't need a steroid shot...
It's the Glens Falls Hospital, thumper, they were bored. ;)
by the way, you CAN crazy-glue wounds shut yourself, you know... only costs a couple of bucks! irrigate/flush with saline or clean water, s\apply some antibiotic like bacitracin, and glue shut. There are probably even youtube videos showing how to do it.
I've even used duct tape on cuts that probably should have had 4-5 stitches, too. Scars are manly.
@cengland0: around here (washington) you can go to most any place that has a pharmacy and get a TDAP (tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis) vaccination. it might be similar wherever you are. much more convenient and a WHOLE lot cheaper.
@carl669: Even some grocery stores here (that have a pharmacy) give out shots. Get your immunization, grab some ice cream or chocolate, and you're good to go!
@kamikazeken: It's not QUITE crazyglue that gets used, though it's very similar. Still, you can get the stuff yourself (being paranoid, I have some...) and as long as you know how to clean the wound, etc.. oftentimes for things of this scale I'd think that'd be sufficient. It certainly has been for me.
That said, it can be BAD to get TDAP combo-shots too often, which is what would have been given if it included pertussis coverage.
(Side note: I have a similar wound from an avocado-related injury from back in 2001. It healed nicely but left an interesting line on my fingerprint.)
As for "really need to go to the ER" - if you don't go often, then I think you shouldn't beat yourself up. Your doctor told you to go, and sometimes, it's worth spending money to be safe rather than sorry.
I had a Pyrex dish explode in my hands (yes really, and no, temp change wasn't involved: it had been soaking overnight and when I pulled it out to wash it, it just exploded), which resulted in dozens of little pieces of safety-type glass embedding themselves in my hands. The largest one was similar in size to what you did (I think); after 12 hours, it was still bleeding. I called a friend who is a dentist; he came over and steri-stripped it, but it was too late to glue it. It bled on and off for another 12 hours and healed very slowly. Because it was on the pad of my right index finger, I couldn't type or hold a pencil for a week - and my job involves both! IMHO, I suspect that having it treated will help it heal faster, which is particularly important if you're right-handed.
@meh3884: You officially know too much about me.
@neuropsychosocial: This was my first ER trip in well over 10 years. I am also lucky that it's my non-dominate hand.
And exploding pyrex is freaky. Was it Pryex brand, or just that style dish?
I think you did the right thing by going to the ER. Your doctor recommended it so...it's best. As others have said, better safe, sewn & immunized, than sorry later.
I cut my hand between the pointer finger & thumb. Opened a pop-top kind of canned cat food the wrong way. Pulled the lid toward my left hand which was holding the can. Dumb. Had opened 100's of cans; silly me. :-\
I knew it was a very bad cut. Husband was there; heard me yell. I grabbed a towel & held my hand. He said, "How bad?" Me, "Very." No Emergency Care nearby. Went to the ER. If I recall, I had 8 stitches. It was deep. Couldn't figure out why the ER people kept asking me over & over again how it happened. Same answer every time. They told my husband to leave while they stitched it up. I emphatically insisted he stay w/me. Later figured out they were checking to see if it was abuse. Guess they thought I had grabbed a knife that he threatened me with.
@thumperchick: Lol sry I'm such a stalker. I miss me hometown this time of year :(
Without seeing the wound, it's hard to say. I personally probably would have stuck the chunk back in place and bandaged it, but that's me. Glad it wasn't more serious for you. :)
@cengland0: You have parrots? I feed and clean up after an African Grey, Double-yellow-headed Amazon, Blue Conure and Blue Streaked Lorikete.
In my case, 99% of the time hospitals are a HUGE waste of money, that being said I honestly can't remember the last time I went to the hospital for myself. The last time I was "told" by my doctor to goto the hospital, I asked him what they charge per my insurance and of course he didn't know, so i called and was surprised it was going to be like $200. I went back into his office and "persuaded" (traded a 18 hole voucher at the country club) for him to cut out the middleman, and to my amazement he wrote me the prescription.
I guess it goes to show its not what you know its who you know...
@tpscan: I have a single parrot. It's a Jenday. I bought what I thought was a Sun Conure but discovered it was a Jenday 2 days ago for the first time.
@cengland0: Yep, parrot bites can be bad with strong jaws and that razor sharp beak. Any owner or vet better be prepared to deal with bites, they are inevitable. And they are distinctive. Other owners recognize you when they see the scars. >grin<
I am accident prone and have cut the tips off of two fingers in (I assume) a similar manner at different times.
The first time I just patched myself up, changed bandages often, and let it heal on its own. The second time I went to the ER, got two stitches, and the tetanus shot. The second injury healed quite a bit faster than the one that I didn't see a doctor for.
@cengland0: Since you shared your parrot bite, here's my finger 3 days later
Doc says It'll heal and no infection, yay!
@thumperchick: Glad no amputation was necessary and you get to keep your finger. Hope it doesn't affect your typing.

Accepted medical and veterinary surgical practice requires assessment of the physiologic status of the animal on a regular basis. Vital time for resuscitation can be lost by failure to notice life threatening physiologic or metabolic problems.
The degree of monitoring sophistication depends on the species, the extent and duration of the surgical procedure, and whether it is a survival or terminal procedure. Monitoring can be qualitative, using the anesthetist's sense of touch, sight and hearing to evaluate the patient; or quantitative, using instruments for periodic measurement of specific vital organ performance.
The anesthetic record provides a detailed account of the course of anesthesia and intraoperative events. Blank record forms are available from the Office of Veterinary Resources. Whether you use one of these forms, or one of your own design, it is important to record data from the pre-operative period, the induction period, the anesthetic/surgical period and the immediate post-operative period. Later measurements may be written on the individual animal's chart.
Support of vital organ functions is an integral part of any surgical protocol. Many devices are available but they may not be practical or applicable for all species.

Dietetics Program
By moniquegarcia on Wed, 07/17/2013 - 2:09pm
Society-Ready Graduates
Research Year:2002
The demand for registered, credentialed dietitians has increased in the United States, largely because the public is more interested now in general nutrition, disease prevention, and the health of the aging. According to figures from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics and the American Dietetic Association, "employment of dietitians is expected to grow about as fast as the average for all occupations through the year 2005," at competitive salaries. Registered dietitians work in health care facilities, sports nutrition and corporate wellness programs, food and nutrition-related businesses and industries, private practice, community and public health settings, at universities and medical centers, and in research
Description of Action:
The Department of Nutritional Sciences offers a Didactic Program in Dietetics which is accredited through the Commission on Accreditation for Dietetics Education. To earn an RD credential, students undertake the bachelor's degree program of study in dietetics, complete an approved, supervised internship program at a healthcare facility, community agency, or a food service corporation, and pass a national examination.
Students completing the UA's dietetics coursework have a 95 percent placement rate for internship programs, compared with the national average of 60 percent. This experience gives them the skills and abilities they need to pass the national registered dietitian (RD) exam. As of the year 2003, UA dietetics graduates are yielding a 97 percent pass rate. Alumni comments:
"I like the internship a lot so far. It's very challenging, but I feel well-prepared coming from the U of A."
"You will be well-prepared for this internship by going to the U of A. I felt that I was stronger in certain areas than some of the other interns in the program, including one girl who already had her Ph.D."
"...all the dietitians said they felt that when they went to their internships they were a step ahead of all the other interns as far as knowledge and experience, because of going through the program at the U of A. I totally feel the same way.

This is a repost of a question I posted at MSE.
Mark L. Irons' paper The Curvature and Geodesics of the Torus gives a concise overview of the geodesics on the torus:
- There are five clear-cut families of geodesics.
- Most of the geodesics are "ergodic": aperiodic and covering either the entire surface - by spiraling endlessly around - or substantial parts of it.
- Some of the geodesics are "boring": the meridians, the inner and the outer equator
- A few of them are "æsthetically pleasing": returning to their starting point after just a few circuits.
Does the structure of geodesics change when twisting the "hose" before gluing its ends?
E.g., there might be no equators anymore because after twisting the (two) equators lost their "ends".

what do you think about textbooks on the iPad?
i thought the videos of the demos look simply amazing. too bad i am pass the age of using most of the books that will probably be published...but i would love Robbins Pathology on the iPad...
7 Answers answer
It's a great idea whose time has come. They'll be hard pressed to justify charging $150 for an ebook, not that it bothers them with the dead tree version now.
I have the DSM-IV-TR on my touchpad.
It has come in handy on numerous occasions when someone on the bus starts yelling.
I have previously bought many eTexts to save both money and trees. Plus it saves space at your own home.
I am a fan of e readers but I find it very hard to read reference books on them I want to flip back and forth.
I like the idea a lot. The real drawback is the price of entry. I mean, the cheapest retail version of the iPad 2 is what? $499? I absolutely love my Sports Illustrated digital subscription, the interactive format is great. They link in video and audio commentaries, lots of links to external content, etc. If the textbooks even start at that level, they're heads and shoulders above the print version already. If Apple made an "educational" model that had lower hardware specs (lower end processor, maybe only 8GB memory) they could really have something here.
There are some things about paper texts that I dont think can ever be replaced for me. Like @gideonfrost said, I love flipping back & forth, using fingers as placeholders. Ive learned far more through the act of comparing/contrasting/linking info in a text, than the text itself would have offered normally
It may be because I'm older, but I'm not exactly a luddite. I was one of the first of my peers to have early mass produced PC's (PCjr&AppleII+). I was also the first one in my University to bring a laptop, and there was some resistance from the professors. Now almost everyone has a laptop/notebook/tablet.
But my early formative years were spent in a house with a huge library, where Id sit & read my parents old texts from university/grad. For me, I don't think e-texts could ever replace that wonderful, multi-sensory experience of feeling, smelling, touching pages. Leaving bent pages. Falling asleep with a faceplant into a book. (f a text came with an e-copy, that'd interest me
I like the idea of eliminating textbooks from schools as they're heavy, and not very environmentally friendly. However, The cost of an iPad is still too hight to justify this new use. Then there is the additional problems presented by giving your children e-devices that can be loaded with games, etc.
Why not come up with an e-reader that is just that -- and e-reader (like the much less expensive Kindles). I'm not bashing Apple, I just think that expecting families to pay for iPads is a bit ridiculous.
I think a cheaper alternative needs to be considered.
Brilliant idea! This needs to be done immediately considering the fact that 10 year olds everywhere are lugging 120 pounds of books around in a roller bag everyday. Not to mention the fact that the most recent generation views text books the same way that I view 8 tracks.
All that being said, money shouldn't even be an issue since the price of text books for schools is outrageous.

How good is Papa John's Pizza?
Deals for this pizza often come up here. I wonder sometimes if this is desparate marketing because the pizza is bleh or is it great marketing to attract new customers to a great tasting pizza? I've never had one... Is it worth a trip?
23 Answers answer
It is OK. It does seem like the sauce is missing something, which makes the pizza sort of bland. IF getting one, personally I would recommend going for extra sauce.
I worked for Papa Johns as a General Manager for several years. The pizza is OK, but not the best.
The Papa Johns deal postings always surprise me. All of the stores have "in store" deals that a much better, but are not advertized. The customer has to request them.
For example, 3 large 1 topping Pizzas for $19.99, or a large 1 topping for $6 (5 or more).
Another thing is that the managers will negotiate. The pizza business is very competitive, and they want your business.
It's edible. If you've ever had good pizza, then you would never confuse Papa John's for good pizza. It's cheap and available. Unfortunately, around here there are limited options.
I think it's the best of the big pizza chains. But, it's still chain pizza-if you want actually good pizza you gotta go for a smaller place.
Not very good in my opinion, but I will give them credit for having some of the best cheesestix around.
It will do for a quick option or feeding a group, but alot of the small places are better. Love a place here with a giant wood fired brick oven. Hmmm now hungry, may have to run there for lunch.
Of the major chains, it's up there. Pizza Hut is my personal favorite, pretty much because of stuffed crust. It's been a running opinion of mine and some friends that if Papa John's ever did stuffed crust, they'd severely damage and/or run out of business Pizza Hut and Domino's.
It's far from the best pizza in the world, but of all the chain pizzerias, it's up there.
We had it once as a houseguest was raving about how great it was. We haven't had it since. If we are getting pizza from a chain, we prefer Round Table (west coast chain). But if you are ever in a very small town in Pennsylvania called Jonestown, try the local pizza shop, I don't think you will regret it.
Personally, I think of the chains, Papa Johns 'hand tossed' is tied for the best with Pizza Hut 'pan' pizza, although they really cannot be compared since they are not the same type of pizza.
There are other places locally that I would rather eat, but they don't carry out and are less pizza for the same price. Now for way less money my wife makes homemade pizza that is way better than anything else.
i actually love Papa John's, but I live in Florida so my choices of quality pizza may be limited. They are better than other chains or local mom & pop's.
I love Papa John's, it's my favorite of all the chains. It's obviously not the best pizza ever, but it's still good.
@atd15: What is better then Papa Johns?
I like Papa Johns, but we do not have one in my location.
Better than Pizza Hut and Dominos.
I prefer Sarpino's. They use sourdough crust and it's so good.
Of the big chain, "fast food" pizzas, Papa Johns is my favorite. I used to eat it at least once a week when I was helping out with the youth at my church (either at church or eating leftovers I had brought home because we had forgotten to find a kid to give it to before they all left). It's a good middle of the road pizza. Not too thin, not too thick, not too sweet of a sauce or crust, reasonable amount of toppings, reasonable variety of toppings. And the leftovers do freeze well.
@caffeine_dude: To be honest I tend to get pizza from local Ma and Pa places that have been around awhile. Once they get to know you they go out of their way to treat you right.
Again, Papa Johns is OK, but the ingredients are not as fresh as they claim. The pizza dough is made in a factory, and shipped out to stores once a week. The whole hand tossed thing is purely for looks.
Papa John's went downhill when they switched up the way they made their pizzas. They used to put all of the toppings beneath a thick layer of mozzarella with some oregano on top. It kept the topping moist and the sauce hot, even after waiting 30 mins for delivery or picking it up and taking it home. Alas, now they make it like every other chain out there, and the taste just sucks.
If you want good pizza, find a local joint that isn't a chain and order from there. Local will almost always be better than chain, and 9/10 times cheaper.
We like it, as far as the chains go. We like some of the local pizza shops better, but PJs sometimes has a better deal, and it's good for the value.
Keeping in line with most of these comments, the pizza has been hit or miss for me. Sometimes it's great and sometime it leaves a lot to be desired. Never terrible. It's cheap, so just order one and find out.
It is the best when you have been drinking and its the only place open that still delivers.
Papa John's would be infinitely better if they would brush their garlic butter sauce ON the crust before they cooked it instead of giving you a vat of it to dip. Or offer it as an option. Their crust is dry, but I don't like it dripping in cold butter oil sauce.
Sometimes their cheese tastes gritty.
I lived in a city with a papa johns for 1 year. During that year I got around a dozen free pizzas... They kept calling me informing me I won it. I kept picking them up... The pizza was better than papa Gino's, dominoes, pizza hut and the like. Doesn't compare to a real pizza, though... Just at the top of the fast food pizza list.
For major chains I think Dominos is the best but Papa Johns is super close b/c of the super yummy garlic sauce. I do love their marinara though too.
Of the national chains I rank them #2. In my area Dominos works hard to see how little they can give you and get away with it. They close all of the Pizza Huts and opened a few P.H. Express, and they bad with a capital B. I like Little Caesars for their stuffed crust the best. Of course the best is always home made, spend $10 for a stone and make it your way!

Marriage for Same-Sex Couples: A Conversation
With public opinion increasingly favoring the right of same-sex couples to marry, and more states legalizing marriage for gays and lesbians, the movement for marriage equality appears to be at a tipping point. Four legal scholars discuss the future of marriage equality in the United States and examine the larger issues that remain on the horizon.
2009 has been a landmark year for marriage equality advocates. In April, Iowa legalized marriage for same-sex couples. Vermont and New Hampshire soon followed suit, as did Maine—if only to have residents vote to repeal the right in November. The news did not stop there. In the same month, a narrow majority in Washington chose to grant same-sex couples the state-sanctioned benefits of marriage, but not the title.
These developments, along with a host of individual triumphs and setbacks, sparked intense debates that echoed through the halls of Columbia Law School. Discussions were particularly pointed within the Center for Gender and Sexuality Law, which offers the only curriculum of its kind at any law school in the country.
Taking note of the variety of well-reasoned arguments, Columbia Law School Magazine approached four professors of varying backgrounds with an idea: They would document their thoughts on marriage for same-sex couples in a series of back-and-forth emails—no moderator, no referee. The scholars could drive the free-flowing conversation in any direction and expand on any thoughts that they found particularly compelling.
In addition to Professors Suzanne B. Goldberg and Katherine M. Franke, the directors of the Center for Gender and Sexuality Law, the Magazine invited constitutional law and public opinion expert Nathaniel Persily to join the conversation, as well as Professor Elizabeth F. Emens, a noted scholar on discrimination and marriage. Each approached the issue with a unique perspective shaped by their legal expertise and differing experiences. Together, they discussed the future of marriage for same-sex couples in America. An edited version of the conversation follows.
Katherine Franke: Some have argued that marriage rights for lesbian and gay couples is the preeminent civil rights issue of this era. A long shot even five years ago (and a productive wedge issue for the Republicans in the 2004 presidential election), we've seen the tide turn in the last couple years such that the injustice of the issue has become more apparent to a larger section of the American people. To be honest, I didn't see it coming quite so quickly. Did any of you?
Nathaniel Persily: The rapid and radical shifts in attitudes toward same-sex marriage since 2003 may possibly be unprecedented among so-called "moral values" issues that deal with family, sexuality, or intimacy. Let me begin by discussing the state of American public opinion on same-sex marriage. If present trends continue—and that is not a big "if"—a majority of Americans within five years will support the right of gays and lesbians to marry.
In the wake of Lawrence v. Texas (2003) and the Massachusetts court's decisions legalizing same-sex marriage in that state, the public did indeed backlash on both gay rights generally and marriage in particular. Since that time, however, the issue has become fully "ideologized," meaning that self-described liberals have largely moved strongly in the direction of marriage equality.
Suzanne Goldberg: We can also see a trend in the conversation—both in public and in court—that now takes seriously the question whether same-sex couples should be able to marry. Twenty years ago, when same-sex couples first brought their marriage equality claims to court, they were essentially laughed off, dismissed based on the dictionary's definition of marriage as a relationship between a man and a woman. Now, same-sex couples have begun to win their right to marry—both in legislatures and courts, including the unanimous ruling of the Iowa Supreme Court
last spring.
In addition, more and more people recognize that, whatever their views about
the word "marriage," there is something unfair, even distasteful, about laws that privilege heterosexual couples while treating their gay neighbors as legal strangers
to one another.
Nathaniel Persily: Most of the present attitudinal change is now being driven by cohort replacement—that is, older folks with more conservative views on gay rights dying off and younger people, a majority of whom already support marriage equality, taking their place.
Katherine Franke: Nate's observation about cohort replacement is intriguing. I wonder if there isn't something similar going on in the lesbian and gay community that I regard as somewhat more troubling.
Over the last several years, marriage rights have become the most prominent issue in the struggle for lesbian and gay equality and freedom, eclipsing a broader kind of politics that was more prominent in the community 10, 15, or 20 years ago. This year marked the 40th anniversary of the Stonewall riots, an event that sparked a movement calling for a broad range of sexual rights and liberties that were in so many ways much more radical than today's gay rights and marriage rights politics. ACT UP [the AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power] deployed tactics and strategies in the late 1980s and 1990s that were designed to bring aid and attention to the AIDS epidemic by upending the medical establishment.
These "in your face" forms of politics find little relation to today's couples lining up at city halls across the country asking for the state's blessing. Today's younger cohort of lesbian and gay people have few contemporary examples of what the sexual rights movement once was.
Nathaniel Persily: Katherine is right about the attitudinal patterns among gays and lesbians: Priorities vary considerably by age. Patrick Egan and Kenneth Sherrill have done the most extensive analysis of public attitudes of gays, lesbians, and bisexuals. They find, for example, that gays, lesbians, and bisexuals of all age groups place protections against workplace discrimination and anti-hate crimes legislation above marriage. But for the youngest respondents (ages 18 to 25), marriage comes third in their list of priorities—whereas for those over the age of 45, it does not make the top five.
Suzanne Goldberg: But I would have to disagree, somewhat, with Katherine's characterization of marriage as the issue for up-and-coming activists, and Nate's data likewise confirms that marriage, though important, is not the sole, or even the top, priority for many LGBT people today. It is no doubt true that many are embracing marriage as one of the important civil rights issues of the moment—perhaps with good reason, in that it is one of the few areas in which inequality is written formally into law. But at the same time, we have seen tremendous attention to the pervasive violence that continues against lesbians, gay men, bisexuals, and especially transgender individuals, as well as significant activism for antidiscrimination laws and against another major area of formal inequality—the military.
Nathaniel Persily: It should also be noted that gays, while much more supportive of marriage equality than heterosexuals, have not been uniform in their support.
As of 2004, for example, when faced with three options—marriage, civil unions, and no legal recognition—half of those who called themselves gay, lesbian, or bisexual said "they should be allowed to legally marry," 31 percent said "they should be allowed to form civil unions but not marry," and 17 percent said "there should be no legal recognition of their relationships." I suspect the preference for marriage has grown by between 10 and 20 percentage points since then (as it has with the population in general), but the 2004 poll gives a sense of the diversity of views within the gay community, as well.
Suzanne Goldberg: As these numbers suggest, many same-sex couples are seeking to be treated much like their straight neighbors, much like many (though
not all) gay activists in the 1970s sought to be seen as just as "normal" as their heterosexual counterparts.
More generally, the words of Justice [Anthony] Kennedy when he wrote the opinion striking down Texas' sodomy law in 2003 are both instructive, and possibly predictive, about the future of laws excluding same-sex couples from marriage: The framers "knew times can blind us to certain truths and later generations can see that laws once thought necessary and proper in fact serve only to oppress."
Katherine Franke: But liberty and equality aren't the only rights being argued in the marriage cases. In many of them, the primary argument being made is that exclusion from marriage creates a dignity harm by refusing to acknowledge that same-sex unions are entitled to the same dignity and respect as different-sex unions. Yet to do so is to take for granted that marriage is something sacred, something to be honored, and something that dignifies those who earn its blessings. But doesn't it, at the same time, risk implying that there is something undignified about a sexual relationship outside of marriage?
Suzanne Goldberg: To me, the dignity claim is rhetorically powerful because of its connection to equality: When we, as a society, deny some people equal access to state-sponsored institutions, whether marriage or anything else, we, in effect, treat the denied group as less worthy than the others. At the same time, Katherine's question illustrates the tremendous power that government regulation has to sanction, or not, individual choices about intimate relationships.
Elizabeth Emens: Katherine highlights the longstanding debate among
LGBT folks about the degree of prominence that marriage should have in movement politics—a debate that raises interesting questions about the value of marriage
more generally.
Nearly 10 years ago, I wrote an article about multiparty relationships, or "polyamory." The article grew out of an oddity about the same-sex marriage debate: Although the left and right were deeply divided about same-sex marriage, there nonetheless seemed to be near-consensus against multiparty marriage.
That article didn't argue for multiparty marriage, but after I wrote it, a lot of people asked me whether I thought multiparty marriage was a realistic possibility. I do not see any sign of a political move in this direction, but thinking about multiparty marriage does highlight some interesting questions about the function and value of state-sponsored marriage.
Nathaniel Persily: In response to Liz's comment with respect to polygamy, there are few family values issues for which the national consensus is more uniform. More than 90 percent of Americans consistently say polygamy is "morally wrong," as compared to a little less than half who say the same about "gay and lesbian relations." Although I haven't seen polling on legalization of polygamy, I suspect the figures are comparable. In fact, a poll of Canadians found that 85 percent oppose legalization of polygamy, and they tend to be a bit more liberal on such issues than their neighbors to the south.
Elizabeth Emens: One objection to multiparty marriage is that marriage brings with it privileges that the state would be hard-pressed to extend to groups of more than two. Many people think of marriage as primarily important for the social recognition that may accompany the state's stamp of approval, and for private benefits, such as access to employer-provided health care. But marriage also usually brings with it some legal privileges that only the state can provide.
In particular, the state often grants, as part of marriage, three things that seem to overlap with common conceptions of intimacy: testimonial privilege (the ability to share secrets with a partner); untaxed transfers of wealth (the ability to share money freely); and automatic immigration priority (the ability to share bodies). In each of these, the state gives up something: full investigative powers, tax revenue, and flexible authority over national borders, respectively.
I have long questioned the value of having the state involved in the marriage business at all, but only the state can grant these items, which are considered by many to be important for certain kinds of closeness. So what do you all think? Should these benefits be conditioned on marriage, as they are now?
Katherine Franke: Liz's comments reveal how the marriage equality movement may, in important respects, aim for too little. Allowing same-sex couples to marry holds little comfort for the large group of people who need access to health insurance and other forms of legal and financial security but can't, or won't, get married to get them. I'm thinking, for instance, of two sisters who rely on each other as "domestic partners" but can't marry to gain financial security or get on one another's employment-related health insurance policy.
Nathaniel Persily: If we were writing on a clean slate, I think getting the government out of the marriage business altogether makes sense. However, our legal regimes, at all levels, are so enmeshed with assumptions and requirements based on marital status that this alternative is simply not feasible or realistic. That then puts advocates in the difficult position of carving out a different status (in law and/or norms), or of trying to open up an existing category (i.e., marriage) to those who have not had access previously.
It will be interesting to see whether allowing gays and lesbians to marry will necessarily lead to a devaluing of non-marital relationships—same-sex or opposite-sex. The trends in the Gallup polls have been in the opposite direction: Majorities now say sex before marriage, and even having a baby outside of marriage, is "morally acceptable." A majority (57 percent) also believes that "an unmarried couple that has lived together for five years is just as committed in their relationship as a couple that has been married for five years."
My guess is that opening up marriage to same-sex couples will have less of an effect on attitudes and more of an effect on stultifying legal developments that would have extended marriage-like benefits to unmarried couples.
Katherine Franke: One remarkable sign of the recognition of the "rightness" of this cause reaching out well beyond the gay and lesbian community is the lawsuit filed in federal court in California by David Boies and Ted Olson challenging the legality of Proposition 8, the amendment to revoke marriage rights for same-sex couples. Boies and Olson, two very prominent heterosexual lawyers who seem to agree on nothing else but this issue, have pushed ahead with the lawsuit over the strong objections of many leaders in the LGBT communities—including the communities' lawyers, who have been thinking hard about strategy and venue for years.
This case raises some tough questions: Who "owns" the issue? What are the stakes
for people who are not gay or lesbian? And what sort of ethical obligations do lawyers
in cases like this owe to the communities most closely impacted by the outcome
of the litigation?
Suzanne Goldberg: As Katherine's questions suggest, the Boies/Olson lawsuit raises the stakes of marriage litigation dramatically. Their lawsuit turns on federal constitutional claims, unlike nearly all of the marriage equality suits brought by the longstanding LGBT rights litigation groups, which have sought—and won—marriage equality based on state constitutional guarantees. This framing means that the case could potentially (though not necessarily) have far-reaching, national impact on the rights of same-sex couples to marry.
After Boies and Olson raised the stakes in this way, they should not, in my view, have blocked the LGBT advocacy organizations from joining the lawsuit and sharing their substantial expertise with the court.
It is not at all certain that the case will reach the Supreme Court, and if it does, there may be other suits already there, as both gay married couples in Massachusetts and the state of Massachusetts itself have challenged portions of the Defense of Marriage Act that ban federal recognition of same-sex couples' marriages.
Nathaniel Persily: It is possible that a Supreme Court decision in a case, such as the one brought by Olson and Boies, might lead to an acceleration or reversal of the trajectory of opinion, but I think it is unlikely. The structure of opinion appears to follow other equality issues (e.g., school integration and interracial marriage), as opposed to liberty issues (e.g., abortion). We see about a 1.7 percentage point shift each year in favor of marriage equality.
More importantly, since the 2004 election, when the backlash was at its peak (or trough, if you prefer), no events, such as court decisions, appear to have had any effect on public opinion. The trajectory of opinion in states where courts have legalized same-sex marriage mirrors the trajectory in all other states. In other words, although different states and regions vary greatly in the share of their population that supports same-sex marriage, in all states the trends are going in the same direction: toward allowing gays and lesbians to marry.
Elizabeth Emens: Katherine's comments about the Boies/Olson litigation also asked about the stakes for straights in the same-sex marriage debate. Some scholars have argued that same-sex marriage might actually improve straight marriages, or at least make them more equal—by, for instance, modeling relationships in which roles are not divided according to sex and family responsibilities are shared more equally.
Mary Anne Case of the University of Chicago Law School has argued, more specifically, that the legalization of same-sex marriage is better for straight people (or at least for straight women) than the creation of same-sex civil union or domestic partnership regimes. Most civil union or domestic partnership regimes require partners to engage in traditional marital behaviors, such as living together and sharing bank accounts.
Marriage, by contrast, has few requirements for entry and largely allows the parties to devise their own relationship model. Thus, Case suggests, adapting marriage to include same-sex couples, rather than creating new institutions for gays, may, ironically, allow for more departures from the role-based expectations that have historically accompanied marriage.
These arguments don't counter the concern that the Boies/Olson litigation is a strategic mistake if it causes the Supreme Court to hear the issue too early—and I don't mean to speculate on why Boies and Olson brought this litigation—but these arguments do highlight some of the substantive reasons why straights who favor gender equality may have something to gain from same-sex marriage.
Suzanne Goldberg: I would add that while today's conflicts regarding marriage equality have their most immediate and personal effect on couples who would want to, but cannot, currently marry, the public debate also tells us a lot about ourselves as a nation. In that sense, I have often thought that we might describe the nation as in something akin to an adolescent phase with respect to marriage equality for lesbian and gay couples. From my perspective, as a supporter of equal marriage rights, we seem to be maturing, slowly but surely, by increasingly recognizing the importance of equality in this area—although at times, we (or, more accurately, a significant segment of Americans) want to slam the door shut in the face of this movement toward equality.
We see ads supporting California's amendment to revoke marriage rights that aim to stir up long-debunked fears about gay people as predators of children, and other ads that aim to treat gay people's claim to equality as a danger to society's well-being. And, as in California and now in Maine, we see virulent fights to strip away equal marriage rights gains that have been made.
My strong sense, as confirmed by Nate's data, is that we will move successfully through this adolescence and ultimately recognize that, like it or not, the state should not be in the business of having two sets of relationship rules, one for same-sex couples and another, more protective set, for everyone else.

First we don't support UNC for resource files. The next patch will restrict usage of UNC paths. Paths that are supported are either relative paths from the project directory or fully qualified urls e.g. http://localhost/site/resources/stuff.css
This is not however the sole reason for a loss of resources. We have a bug that will be fixed in the next patch.Phil Strong

same problem here. Sencha Architect Version 2.2.1 Build 951.
I've got 6 Resources, 3x CSS and 3x JS. On startup most of the time some of them (not always all) getting deleted. Today it deleted the 3 CSS-Resources.
The resources have a relative path, so it's not an UNC-path.

I still lose files in my project, though not as bad as before. At the moment it's just one file at the end of the list. Details:
path: "app/util/Account.js"
Also when upgrading the project to the latest SA release, I lost several controllers, views and models that I had to rebuild since SA has no import functionality. The odd thing about these lost elements was that the underlying files got a small first letter vs capital as it should have.
I'm reluctant to submit the whole project, but maybe an excerpt from the meta files could help?

I've noticed an unusual feeling associated with Mac OS X's two fingering scrolling. Any chance this might indicate a repetitive stress injury in the making? I've been trying to rotate the fingers I use for scrolling somewhat, but not terribly successfully. Anyone else found solutions to this potential issue? (related)
Out of all the Mac users I've ever heard of/seen, none of them have ever said anything like this. I swift touch of a trackpad of mouse certainly doesn't seem to be any sort of damaging movements. If you end up having problems with it more you could ask a more 'medical' associated person. I've personally never heard anything like it, but muscle pains can be worsened from certain movements causing stress. Good luck!
I have been experiencing a strong inflammation on the middle finger articulation, which I think it might be caused by the macbook mouse and repetitive movements of scrolling and clicking. I have a ultrasound tomorrow. My doctor doesn't think this is from the mouse, but probably she doesn't know this type of mouse.
In the past I have noticed a clear correlation between discomfort in my index finger, middle finger and wrist and the use of a magic mouse/trackpad.
I really love the functionality, but I am confident that the use of my magic mouse was the source of discomfort. It wasn't exactly pain, but more the feeling my fingers were not aligned properly any more or touched each other differently and sometimes a strange tension. There was no clear visual difference between my right and left hand.
As a teenager I had a wake up call with regards to RSI when my neck got stuck/blocked when I tried to reach for a shirt on the top shelf of my closet. It took two days before the muscles relaxed. Since then I have been extra careful to listen to my bodies signals. For me trackballs work well. I use a Logitech M570 trackball.
My hand still acts up when I use my MacBook on the couch a couple of nights in a row.
I have only ever experienced the opposite - I have frequently ended up with sore fingers from ONE finger scrolling on traditional mice. I've been a cross-platform developer for decades, including the one-button Apple mouse era so I'm a good data point for comparing both.
Currently, my desktop has a Bamboo touchpad and scroll-wheel mouse on my PC then an Apple Magic Mouse on the left of my Mac keyboard with a Magic Pad on the right of my keyboard. I use two-fingers for scrolling on both Mac and PC on the pads and prefer it to using the scroll wheel on my PC mouse.
In particular, with the pads, you can scroll with a hand gesture that is more of a swipe, unlike the single-finger on the traditional mouse.

I am in graduate school for chemical engineering and the method of characteristics appears in many journal articles. Does anyone have a good reference: either online or a book that provides a good explanation with examples of the method of characteristics.
Off the top of my head, I've found both of these to be well-written and easy to follow. Cavet: I don't have them in front of me, so my recommendation is based on general impressions rather than their particular treatment of characteristics.
The External Links listed at the end of the wikipedia article on characteristics also look like they might be worth your time.
Since you have more of an engineering background, I would suggest the textbook of Robert McOwen, Partial Differential Equations: Methods and Applications. Chapter 1 is about solving first order partial differential equations, where the method of characteristics is most applicable. Chapters 2 and 3 also contains some application of the notion of characteristics to higher order equations and to the wave equation.
Compare to the treatments in other standard, more theory-oriented textbooks, I find McOwen's treatment of the method of characteristics to be more detailed and complete, and easier to teach from. As a remark: section 1.3, the application to fully non-linear first order equations, is very difficult to wrap your head around. So don't worry if you feel like you suddenly hit a wall when you get to that section.

A third Saudi cargo plane arrived last night in Yemen carrying relief supplies for victims of recent flooding.
Eighty-two tons of food, tents, quilts and electricity generators were delivered. The Saudi airlift began on November 2 after torrential rains and floods devastated the Hadramout, Al-Mahra and Al-Hudaida provinces.
Saudi Arabia has donated a total of $100 million to help Yemen cope with the natural disaster.

I have a question about the daily prayers of Judaism. I noticed on my trip to Jerusalem that a lot of those practicing Judaism got up at a certain time in the morning on the plane and faced a wall and prayed with a book in their hand. My question is why did they do this? Is there an obligation in Judaism to recite certain prayers at certain times, or do Jews pray only when they are inspired to do so?

Maimonides (Mishneh Torah, Laws of Prayer, Chapter 1) outlines the basic obligations of prayer. He writes that originally there was no fixed prayers, only an obligation to pray somewhat every day. Everyone would pray different amounts based on how 'inspired' they were.
After the destruction of the Jewish Kingdom by the Babylonians (586 BCE), the Sages of the time established fixed times for prayer with fixed content AS A MINIMUM to be recited each day. There are 5 fixed prayers:
These prayers are viewed as obligatory. Other personal prayers to God outside of a formal structure are certainly not discouraged, and can be recited whenever and however depending on the desires of the individual.
The specific daily prayers - morning, afternoon, and evening - are not Biblically mandated. In the Talmud (Berachos 26b) there is a disagreement about what their source/basis is. One opinion is that they were originally established respectively by Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; the other opinion is that they were established by the rabbis of the early Second Temple era and they represent the sacrifices that were offered in the Temple in the morning and afternoon, and the leftovers that were burnt at night.
Jews pray 3 times a day, facing Jerusalem. The text is mostly fixed, which is why they were holding prayer books, although certain additions can be made on an as-needed basis, such as asking for healing of a specific person. There are differences of opinion as to whether on an air plane the rules for how to pray are like the rules of someone praying on a large vessel (in which someone can easily stand and face towards Jerusalem) or whether it is like praying on a smaller vessel in which it is difficult or dangerous to stand. But I think that's a subject for another question.

I'm a fan of marvel, and I find it pretty cool that Lego is making sets and mini figures for Marvel. I personally wouldn't want to buy a whole set of blocks and characters, and i wouldn't want to buy multiple sets to get the characters I need, because I will end up having plural of the same minifigures and end up spending more money for blocks and parts I dont really want.
All I really want is the minifigures from the Avengers, which are hawkeye, ironman, thor, captain america, black widow, hulk, and even nick fury.

RITUXAN® (Rituximab) is indicated for the treatment of patients with:
- Relapsed or refractory, low-grade or follicular, CD20-positive, B-cell NHL as a single agent
- Previously untreated follicular, CD20-positive, B-cell NHL in combination with first-line chemotherapy and, in patients achieving a complete or partial response to RITUXAN in combination with chemotherapy, as single-agent maintenance therapy
- Non-progressing (including stable disease), low-grade, CD20-positive, B-cell NHL, as a single agent, after first-line CVP chemotherapy
- Previously untreated diffuse large B-cell, CD20-positive NHL in combination with CHOP or other anthracycline-based chemotherapy regimens
- Previously untreated and previously treated CD20-positive CLL in combination with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide (FC)
RITUXAN is not recommended for use in patients with severe, active infections.
WARNING: FATAL INFUSION REACTIONS, SEVERE MUCOCUTANEOUS REACTIONS, HEPATITIS B VIRUS REACTIVATION and PROGRESSIVE MULTIFOCAL LEUKOENCEPHALOPATHY
- Infusion Reactions: RITUXAN administration can result in serious, including fatal infusion reactions. Deaths within 24 hours of RITUXAN infusion have occurred. Approximately 80% of fatal infusion reactions occurred in association with the first infusion. Monitor patients closely. Discontinue RITUXAN infusion for severe reactions and provide medical treatment for Grade 3 or 4 infusion reactions
- Severe Mucocutaneous Reactions: Severe, including fatal, mucocutaneous reactions can occur in patients receiving RITUXAN
- Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) Reactivation: HBV reactivation can occur in patients treated with RITUXAN, in some cases resulting in fulminant hepatitis, hepatic failure, and death. Screen all patients for HBV infection before treatment initiation, and monitor patients during and after treatment with RITUXAN. Discontinue RITUXAN and concomitant medications in the event of HBV reactivation
- Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy (PML), including fatal PML, can occur in patients receiving RITUXAN
Warnings and Precautions
Tumor Lysis Syndrome
- Acute renal failure, hyperkalemia, hypocalcemia, hyperuricemia, or hyperphosphatemia from tumor lysis, some fatal, can occur within 12−24 hours after the first infusion of RITUXAN in patients with NHL. A high number of circulating malignant cells (≥25,000/mm3) or high tumor burden, confers a greater risk of TLS. Administer aggressive intravenous hydration and anti hyperuricemic therapy in patients at high risk for TLS
- Serious, including fatal, bacterial, fungal, and new or reactivated viral infections can occur during and following the completion of RITUXAN-based therapy. Discontinue RITUXAN for serious infections and institute appropriate anti infective therapy
- Discontinue infusions for serious or life threatening cardiac arrhythmias. Perform cardiac monitoring during and after all infusions of RITUXAN for patients who develop clinically significant arrhythmias, or who have a history of arrhythmia or angina
- Severe, including fatal, renal toxicity can occur after RITUXAN administration in patients with NHL. Monitor closely for signs of renal failure and discontinue RITUXAN in patients with a rising serum creatinine or oliguria
Bowel Obstruction and Perforation
- Abdominal pain, bowel obstruction and perforation, in some cases leading to death, can occur in patients receiving RITUXAN in combination with chemotherapy. Evaluate if symptoms of obstruction such as abdominal pain or repeated vomiting occur
- The safety of immunization with live viral vaccines following RITUXAN therapy has not been studied and vaccination with live virus vaccines is not recommended
Laboratory Monitoring
- Obtain complete blood counts (CBC) prior to each RITUXAN course

The road to Lynchburg. Its been 3 years. You know you have to pinch yourself to see if it is real. As we left our hotel and headed to Lynchburg it was almost surreal. Wow. We are heading back to the Jack. It is incredible to be here again. The last couple of days have been so overcast and rainy. As we drove towards Lynchburg the weather brightened the sun was shining and it was just lovely. I got goosebumps seeing the Lynchburg signs. Exciting at the same time.
As we approached the competition area we took it all in. Traffic jam at the entrance gave us a chance to see our friends from MR. Bobo's travelling all stars BBQ team and the Burnside BBQ team from Canada.
We got to our site and we were introduced to Jim Johnson who was doing an International dinner in the pavillion where our site was to be. We set up what we could and we headed to the town square where we picked up our Jack merchandise. I could drop a lot of coin at the store. So many fun Jack Daniels items.
At 1pm we had reservations at Mrs. Mary Bobo's
The meal was delicious and we had a great time. It was the first time the entire team has been together. There are 8 of us and since we all live in different cities etc. it is hard for us to get all together prior to the Jack.
The rest of the evening was a great get together with all of the International teams as they chowed down on catfish fries and a whole lot of other food from Jim Johnson. It was a lot of ppl to feed.
The rest of the night was spent drinking and fraternizing and having a really great time with so many folks we don't get to see often enough. (No pictures LOL)
Now we head off to the hollow overnight to BBQ our very best. Ill catch the blog up on Sunday since Internet in the hollow is not that great. Make sure to check the twitter feed for updates throughout the next 24 hours. …

割合 and 率 both mean ratio, rate, and percentage. What is the difference?
Sign up

Neither means percentage. Percentage is one hundred times ratio or rate. The Japanese word for it is
My impression is that
these two words literally share the similar meanings of ratio,rate. translation of the the explaination from the yahoo 知惠袋 website
割合 normally is used to refer to the proportion of sth,the relationship of one thing to another in size, amount, etc.
eg: 1. The proportion of men to women in the college has changed dramatically over the years. 近年学校の男女の割合を大きく変化しています。
率 is often used after a sort of noun in order to express the percent of ...;for instance percentage "百分率", percent of pass "合格率", percent of attendance "出勤率" etc. and as mentioned above, when use with "比" as"比率", 比率shall substitute "割合".

I have a software properly installed on Kubuntu.
Now, I am patching and testing some of its libraries.
How can I start the software from bash so that it loads my patched libraries instead of the official libs?
the official libs are locate in /usr/lib/
my patch libraries (used during test development) are in /home/user/dev/lib/
I tried:
$ set LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/user/dev/lib/
$ binary_app &
but to no avail.
I'd prefer a solution that can be set from the bash, but if it's not possible, I could also modify the cmake file of this C++ software.
The aim is to allow me to easily start the application either with the vanilla libs, or with my patched libs to see the differences.
Edit: it's a KDE .so file
The library I am testing is a KDE4 library. The official lib is in /usr/lib/kde4/ . In that directory, none of the library start with the lib prefix.
Whether I do:
/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 --list --library-path PATH EXEC
ldd EXEC
The library is not listed at all.
On the other hand, if if move the original library away from /usr/lib/kde4/, the application starts but the corresponding functionality is missing.
Are KDE4 libraries loaded in a specific way? Maybe the variable to set is different...
Edit 2
All the answers are good and useful... unfortunately, it turned out that the problem does not appear to be related to the lib path setting. I'm dealing with a plugin architecture and the .so loading path appears to be hard-coded somewhere in the application. I need to spend more time within the source code to understand what's happening... Thanks and +1 to all.

Who Likes Fishin'?
Posted 03 January 2011 - 08:45 PM
and now the introduction is out of the way i'll tell you about the biggest fish that i didn't manage to catch and biggest one i have caught so far.
it was last july (10) in a bottom fishing tournament in the marshall islands (google it). we went to the outer reef end of the atoll, anchored down, and dropped in our lines. btw despite my fondness of fishing, i am pretty terrible at it. now the other two guys are like l33t at bottom fishing, every 10 minutes of so they were pulling a fish in, half a day in there was 50 fish in the cooler whereas all i had managed to achieve was getting my line tangled up. so i decided to try and untangle my line while these two guys were casually pulling in more fish, i took off my gloves because it was easier to work the line that way, dropped my line in until i reached the tangley bit. about 5 minutes of not achieving that much i felt a tug on my line, i squealed like prepubescent 10 year old and frantically began pulling in. this thing was not coming so easily, i only managed to regain about 5 feet of line next thing the fish decides it doesn't want to come up and dives back down suddenly, taking down some line with it and giving my un-gloved palms some "rope" burn. and get a firmer grip keeping it in place for some time and i readjust my position because i want to put my gloves back on, i place part of the line under my foot and another part in my mouth. as i was reaching out for my gloves i the fish dives back down fast and gives my teeth some good flossing. i pull my line back but alas no more resistance, no more fish, but it had helped me untangle most of my line thankfully. that's my "the one that got away" story. well having learned from my drastic mistake i put my gloves back on and we head on out to another spot close by, here i finally managed to catch something. it wasn't as exciting as the episode of the fish that wasn't caught, i just dropped my line, felt a tug, pulled up fast. i had landed a beautiful blue-spotted jack, it was about 65cm in length probably weighed about 8lbs. ah well it was an enjoyable day, i hope to get out in the water again soon.
but here's a tournament photo of my crew and i and with some of the fish we (well mostly them) caught.

weekend before last, went bottom fishing out in the lagoon again. weather was nice but the fishing didn't match up to it. we caught 5 fish total and i managed to catch one ending my 6 month dry spell. it was a green jobfish, decent size about 30cm. but we later ran out of bait so we ended up filleting one side of my fish and using it as bait. a shark also broke my line that day.
now this past weekend was an interesting experience. i finally went game fishing, looking to catch some marlin here in the marshall islands, another fishing tournament. so we move out around 6:30ish-7 in the morning and head out to the ocean to do some trolling. since it was my first time game fishing i was feeling pretty good about how the day would turn out. now trolling is basically letting some lures run out back from the boat, preferably past where the water is getting broken by the propellers, in the open ocean and the pacific ocean is pretty fucking big. so i was thinking we would be getting some action relatively quickly, but the day had almost passed and we had not gotten a single strike. it was BORING!! i cannot emphasize that word enough, sure it was nice to talk to the other crew and get to know new people but when you're out fishing and not catching any fish well the day can get very tedious. i had only three hours of sleep the previous night because i was coerced into going out, so there where times on the boat i was falling asleep standing up. well i decided to go and take a small nap inside the boats cabin and just as i was about step inside we get a hit. boom, it was like someone had jabbed me with a needle of adrenaline. one of the other crew gets on the rod with the marlin on it while the rest of us reeled in the others, so the lines wouldn't get tangled. out in the distance this marlin leaps out of the water, man that was something. after getting the other rods out of the way we help out the guy with the marlin on the line, as he reels in me and another crew pull the line inside the boat so as to assist him. now this marlin was strong, there was me and the other crew pulling the line + the guy on the rod, so there was 3 of us battling this one fish! and when this marlin fought back you had to hold onto that line for dear life, srsly these creatures are in their element here. we were pulling and pulling until it was probably 10 metres away from us, we could see it clearly now the captain reckoned it was about 200lbs. 5 metres away from landing it now, we could already taste the beer that was to be had back at shore, it swims up towards the boat splashing, diving, turning, doing anything it could to break free (magnificent sight). 3 metres, it struggles some more, suddenly the captain shouts "GIVE IT SOME SLACK!!" and soon after we feel less tension on the line, pulling pulling, no more resistance. FUCK!! all day we had nothing and after all that effort still nothing. but man did that adrenaline boost wake us up, the rest of the day i managed to stay awake. at the weigh in too we found out that had we caught that marlin we would've won the tournament. a disappointing result but i would still count it as a fun day, and hope to do it again in the future. unfortunately i couldn't get pictures this time round because my nikon d90 is not waterproof. well that first marlin is still out there, swimming free, i hope to catch it soon enough.

went to magnetic island on a school camp trip once, went fishing there as well. caught two small ones, probably not big enough to cook though i think. and that was basically the only time i was fishing in FNQ. no such restrictions here in the marshalls, all you need is to have a boat or know someone who has a boat. not really that serious about fishing, but up here there's not much else to do so when you have a chance to get off the island you take it lol.

State Auditor Adam Edelen is promising a closer review of cyber security within government agencies in Kentucky.
Edelen said Wednesday he is concerned about dozens of findings in a yearly audit related to security breaches, including the accidental posting of the Social Security numbers of more than 100 current and former state employees on a publicly accessible website last April.
Edelen said state agencies maintain sensitive information about taxpayers and state employees that needs protection from hackers.
Edelen said auditors found the potential for unauthorized access to state employees' banking information and health insurance data. He said the annual review also noted the potential for unauthorized access to some state computers by people outside government.
