A lightning-sparked fire in the Sierra National Forest about 75 miles northeast of Fresno grew to about 9,000 acres as firefighters battle smoke and steep terrain as well as the blaze itself.
The U.S. Forest Service said Sunday that the fire also expanded in the late afternoons over the last two days when the smoke lifted, making the area hotter.
The fire near Shaver Lake is not threatening any communities, but Fresno County Sheriff's officials said at least 16 campgrounds in the area have been evacuated as a precautionary measure.
Trails and recreational areas in the Kaiser Wilderness near Huntington Lake are also closed and three structures are threatened.
Authorities say they have 15 percent of the fire contained.

Consider the following scenario - we have an e-commerce enabled website selling (say) routers in Britain. Now, one of my keyword (of great importance) is "British Routers". My website is already on second page but not moving ahead for this keyword. A little bit of research revealed that the domain britishrouters.com was available which I bought. Now I want to make know what is the best possible way by which I can get my original website to move ahead on this keyword using this domain. Though I am no SEO person but I guess 301 redirects would already be covered by Google. My best possible bet is to probably do a wordpress install and write a few blogs having links to my original domain.
In this day and age there's little point in having keywords in the domain because it won't or at least shouldn't help you rank any more better than a domain with no keywords - this is because people like yourself, and many millions others came up with idea to buy domains purely with keywords to dominate the rankings - this worked for many and many years and Google has recently addressed the issue, meaning its harder.
Now, EMD stands for 'Exact Match Domain' so this would indicate that you can still use some keywords in the domain but you should try and make a good business brand.
For example
Pet Memorials would be an exact domain match, using 1st memorials would not on the phrase pet-memorials however it be an exact on just memorials, so you really need to be careful. My advice is to come with a business name that allows your business to move forward and build a brand, if it makes sense to have a business with some keywords then do so, but do not make a company name based on Google's SEO, that's juts bad practice.

Female empowerment: a myth?

Female empowerment: a myth? -
Back in the late 19th century, a group of women in the UK fought for the right to vote. Women chained themselves to railings, smashed windows and went on hunger strikes in an effort to gain the vote. One suffragette even died after she threw herself under the hooves of the King's horse.
In the sixties, women fought for equal rights and to be seen as people rather than simply housewives or sex objects. They protested against Miss World and other beauty contests, seeing them as objectifying women, they pointed out the unfairness of men earning more for the same jobs, and they aimed for women to have the right to contreception and abortion.
Nowadays, women say that they're empowered cuz they dress in next to nothing, pose nude for lad's magazines and attack other women who choose feminine persuits. Wonder what the suffragettes and Women's Rights members would say to that? The fact is, that there's nothing at all empowering about pandering to men's wishes. A girl might think she's just dressing for herself, but if she goes out wearing no underwear, a bo'ob tube and miniskirt, then sadly she is simply dressing the way that men want.
No-one's saying that women ought to go out wearing a nun's habit, but it's entirely possible to dress sexy without looking cheap. I feel the same way when I hear of Beyonce shaking her booty in tiny shorts or Miley Cyrus wearing nothing in a music video. Apparently, at least according to deluded so called feminists, this is showing women that they can be how they want. In reality, it's showing women that they're nothing unless they either take off their clothes, or dress sexily; that without a pretty face and a good body, they're nothing.
You know what you can do to be empowered? Easy. Firstly, get a brain. Any guy worth talking to prefers a girl who can give her opinion on a matter and not be afraid to do so over a vapid yes girl who just agrees with him. If you're still at school, work hard and pass exams. The times are changing, and women with smarts are valued. Don't be afraid to express your views, and stick to them. Read up on what you're interested in, visit museums if you want, and go and see shows. A good conversationalist is worth millions. Looks might fade in time, but a good mind stays around for ever.
Second, ditch the diet. And I'd be saying this even if you are overweight. Far better to get a sensible healthy eating plan from your doctor and do some exercise. If you're not overweight, then don't bother trying to starve yourself skinny. A straw poll of my male friends gave me the answer that they don't find skinny girls attractive and instead, go all out for curves. If you're naturally skinny, good for you! That's your body type. However, don't even think of trying to change your pear, apple or hourglass figure, cuz it won't work and believe me, you won't look attractive if you're thin and starved.
Finally, don't be afraid not to dress up. To my mind, it's true empowerment if you head off to food shop wearing your comfy Uggs, joggers and baggy t-shirt, with no makeup. I saw a photo of a pop star wearing stilettos, full makeup and a sexy dress while pushing a trolley. Yeah, right. Who does their shopping dressed to the nines? Far better to wear what you feel comfortable in, and give the impression that you don't care if you look rough, people can take you as they find you. Oh, and don't even think of getting up an hour earlier so you can paint your face before meeting your man. Let him see you barefaced. If he's a keeper, he really won't mind.
I'd also add in about those deluded women I mentioned earlier, who attack their sisterhood about making the wrong choices, ignoring the fact that feminism is about having a choice. So what if a woman wants to become a housewife and mother? That's her choice. So what if a woman wants to become a hairdresser? That's her choice. A woman has the right to choose between having a career, and following a traditional path. And no-one has the right to have a go at her over it.

I'm writing this on behalf of my gym instructor who unfortunately doesn't have Internet access.
Last fortnight he suffered a slight tear in his left bicep while moving some heavy equipment. He has now somewhat recovered and is wondering what kind of exercise/warm-up/weight-lifting will help re-build the muscles.
What do you guys suggest?

The following are some of the key facts and data surrounding each of the three slot casino license applicants in Massachusetts.
The state Gaming Commission is awarding the state's only 1,250-slot machine parlor license to one of these three by the end of the week.
Location: 42 Jungle Road, off of Route 117, in Leominster. Gaming Commission Chairman Stephen Crosby said the Leominster site would be in a relatively unserved part of the state in north central Massachusetts, near the New Hampshire border.
Job Creation: The state gambling commission gave the Leominster slots application a "very good" rating for creating jobs, with 671 full-time employees expected in the first full year of operation.
Site Plan: A $215.7 million in overall proposed investment would include a new 111,360-square-foot building, with 51,048-square-feet of gaming space, 1,601 parking spaces, a 430-seat entertainment venue, two restaurants and a food court.
Financial Backing: PPE Casino Resorts MA LLC plans to finance costs through a combination of principal equity and a senior bank credit facility. The equity portion of the project — $86.3 million — is supported by a loan promissory note from The Cordish Family II, owned by David Cordish, which includes the Maryland Live! Casino among its properties.
Construction Schedule: March 2014 through December 2014.
Mitigation: Leominster would recieve minimum of $3.8 million annually in combined fees, tax payments, development impact payments and community benefit payments.
Community Support: About 61 percent of Leominster voters approved the slots agreement.
Location: Route 1, in Plainville, at an existing harness racing facility. The gaming Commission said the Plainville applicant "makes a strong presentation" on connections to regional attractions, like Gillette Stadum and TPC Boston.
Job Creation: The state gambling commission gave the Plainville slots application a "very good" rating for creating jobs, with 575 full-time employees expected in the first full year of operation.
Site Plan: With $225 million in overall proposed investment, developers propose to build a 106,000-square-foot facility, a 42,051-square-foot gaming floor, 1,620 parking spaces, two restaurants, a food court and a 100-seat entertainment lounge.
Financial Backing: The Plainville proposal is being financed by by Penn National Gaming, a Wyomissing, Pa.,-based operator of 26 casino and racetrack facilities in 18 states. According to the state gambling commission, Penn has $785 million in its "revolving credit facility," from which it will finance the proposed Plainville project.
Construction Schedule: February 2014 through April 2015.
Mitigation: The applicants propose to give $4 million in combined taxes and fees to the town each year, in addition to keeping the harness racetrack at the site operational.
Page 2 of 2 - Community Support: Town voters approved the Plainville slots proposal by about a 3-to-1 margin.
Location: 1958 Broadway, on Route 138. Crosby said Tuesday that a slots parlor in or near southeastern Massachusetts "is unlikely to compete very effectively with the more elaborate casinos in Rhode Island and Connecticut."
Job Creation: The state gambling commission gave the Raynham slots application a "sufficient" rating for creating jobs, with 471 full-time employees expected in the first full year of operation.
Site Plan: With $227.3 million in overall proposed investment, the application features a new 175,000-square-foot facility on a 100-acre, a 37,893-square-foot slots area, 2,425 parking spaces, a restaurant, a food court and a 15,871-square-foot multipurpose space.
Financial Backing: Raynham Park LLC is a financial entity formed by Raynham's Carney family and Greenwood Racing, which owns and operates Parx Casino outside of Philadelphia. Greenwood is injecting $45 million, with an $11 million transfer of land from Carney and $46 million from a temporary facility. The rest comes from third party debt.
Construction Schedule: March 2014 through July 2015.
Mitigation: A $1.1 million yearly host community mitigation payment with Raynham, and smaller payments to area towns, including Taunton and Easton.
Community Support: By a margin of 1,822 to 290, voters approved the community host agreement.

When I was installing OSX 10.8.1, when the install when to reboot Finder refused to shut down citing a mount point problem. I force closed Finder at which point the post-reboot install started without the system having fully rebooted. Is there anyway to verify that nothing went wrong with the install?
There is not really an easy way to verify the update went successfully. Your next steps should be to check your start up disk and then run a stand alone installer for the suspect OS X update. There is no harm in re-running an OS X installer over an OS with the same version.
There really is no way to verify these things except to trust Apple to get it right. If "check for updates" doesn't tell you to update, then you should assume it worked perfectly.
From the sounds of it, you've got nothing to worry about. It takes more than finder failing to shut down to kill a software update. Most likely the update simply paused, and then automatically resumed once you force quit finder.
If you're worried, you could reboot and check for updates again.
Yes - you can look over the install log and you could also re-download the combo updater and run it with the log file open and logging everything.
Both will alert you if there are problems deploying the patch.

Protests against a planned oil refinery and petrochemicals facility broke out in southwest China for the second time this month, as pressure mounted on local leaders over environmental impact of the project.
By BRIAN SPEGELE
BEIJING -- Protests against a planned oil refinery and petrochemicals facility broke out in
southwest China for the second time this month, as pressure
mounted on local leaders over environmental impact of the project.
Local activists are demanding that officials scrap plans to
produce the chemical paraxylene, known as PX, as part of the refinery under construction nearby. Many are
outraged that local officials won't release the results of an
environmental impact assessment of
the project, according to activists and
local media.
Production of PX in proximity to urban centers is of
particular concern for those who fear industrial mishaps at the
facilities could put the health of
local residents and the environment at risk.
Kunming's mayor, Li Wenrong, last week promised to take into
account opposition to the planned petrochemical facility, even
pledging to scrap the project if a majority of residents
expressed opposition.
Opposition to the project has so far largely targeted
the planned petrochemicals facility, though some
residents say they oppose the oil refinery as well being in proximity
to the city.
PX production is booming in China. The chemical is a
critical building block in the production of textiles and
plastics, and industry advocates say under normal conditions it
can be produced safely and without threat to humans.
But its production has repeatedly come under fire in recent
years from residents in multiple Chinese cities who fear it
will damage their health as well as the environment. Following
protests in 2007 in the eastern city of Xiamen, local officials
pledged to move a planned PX plant away from the popular
tourist town.
Similarly, in 2011, officials promised to close a plant in
the northeast city of Dalian after more than 10,000 people took
to the streets in protest of PX production there. State media
reported in December that relocation work for the Dalian plant
was still under way.
Concerns over transparency and locating the planned refinery
so close to the city underpin resistance in Kunming. Residents
have demanded officials release results of a government
required environmental impact assessment.
Others have called for third party groups to be allowed to
conduct an independent assessment of the planned refinery, which has already been
approved by China's National Development and Reform Commission,
its top economic planning body.

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

こおりのぬけみち Ice Loophole
|Information about Ice Path
|Connecting locations:
|← Route 45, → Blackthorn City
|Needed HM:
|Rock Smash, Strength
|Generation(s) available:
|Gen. II and IV
Ice Path is a cave that starts in Route 45 and ends in Blackthorn City. It is a cave filled with ice, and can be very tricky to get through.
In order to have access to Ice Path, you must have beaten the Mahogany Town gym leader, Pryce. On the way to Ice Path, there will be trainers waiting to battle you.
At some point in Ice Path, you will find the HM Waterfall. There are also several more items in Ice Path, including NeverMeltIce.
In Ice Path, you must have taught one of your Pokémon Strength to push boulders down holes. But beware! Once you have pushed the boulder down the hole, it will sink in and will be unable to be moved again.
Once you are close to the exit to Ice Path, a Kimino Girl will be on the ice, saying she is stuck. You must crash into her to get her off the ice. Then you can exit Ice Path and you will be in Blackthorn City.
Ice Path is a great opportunity to meet Ice-type Pokémon, such as Jynx, Swinub, and many others. As well as this, it is a great place to train your Pokémon to battle the dragon-type gym leader Clair in Blackthorn City, or catching Ice types for exploiting said gym leader's weakness to ice.

5 Famous Movie Scenes Made Possible by Reckless Endangerment
As we've mentioned before, sometimes the best way for a director to capture pain and suffering is to make the cast suffer actual pain, because that whole "acting" thing is seriously overrated. Thus the following directors turned their sets into torture chambers for artistic purposes, and/or because they just hated actors.
#5. James Cameron Almost Drowns His Cast and Himself
20th Century Fox
We've covered The Abyss' amazing technological leaps, but we neglected to mention that 40 percent of the shooting took place in an abandoned underwater nuclear tank, which doesn't exactly conjure up images of tea parties and pony rides. For starters, there's the iconic scene where Ed Harris is introduced to the magic goop that will let him breathe underwater.
20th Century Fox
Made by dipping gillyweed in the suit's urine compartment.
This fluid actually exists in real life, but the only man who's tested it nearly bought the kelp farm. Not wanting to take his chances with a magical mystery liquid, Harris opted to hold his breath whenever he had to film in the suit. So when Harris is gasping and seizing up in panic as his helmet fills, he ain't acting.
As it turns out, nearly drowning was something of a running theme on the set. Another scene involved actors swimming without helmets, and since nobody in the cast was Aquaman, Cameron employed safety divers to stick life-giving oxygen into their faces. Then he told them to stay way the hell away from the camera, so if any of those scenes had gone wrong, the safety divers would have had a nice long swim to get to whoever's lungs were quickly filling with water. Oh, and one time a diver used an oxygen regulator incorrectly and pumped water into Harris' mouth instead of air and nearly killed him. Whoops-a-daisy!
It gets better. In order to ensure that nobody accidentally floated up to the surface, the actors were all strapped down with weights, meaning weak swimmers were screwed, and strong swimmers ... were also screwed. Yes, Cameron kept his actors in line with the same method the mafia uses to dispose of bodies.
All the hard work and stress (along with the constant threat of decompression sickness) caused Harris to break down and cry one evening and Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio to famously scream "We're not animals here!" before storming off the set. Cameron responded to their extremely understandable concerns by calling anyone who couldn't keep up "wussies," because this was before he filmed Titanic and invented the concept of love.
Mark Thiessen/National Geographic
Love of water, and of hypothermia. Which wouldn't really have helped matters.
In fairness to Cameron, he was putting his life on the line right there with them. One day both Cameron and his assistant forgot to check the oxygen meter on his tank and, well, you can guess what happened next. Again, a safety diver gave him water instead of air, and Cameron had to cold-cock him in the face so he could escape to the surface moments before blacking out. Both the diver and the assistant were fired, and humanity narrowly avoided living in a dark timeline where Terminator 2 was never made. If you can call that living.
#4. Roman Polanski Is a One-Man Army of Terror
Paramount Pictures
Roman Polanski is simultaneously one of the most sympathetic and terrible people in movie history. And we're not just talking about his personal life -- he's directed classic films like Chinatown and Rosemary's Baby, but his directing methods apparently came out of the Stasi's torture handbook.
Ian Tyas/Hulton Archive/Getty Images
He used microphones and cameras to keep actors under surveillance at all times.
In his very first film, Knife in the Water, Polanski got an actress to jump in fear by firing a gun behind her head. Because when has having a real gun on set ever gone wrong?
In Rosemary's Baby, there's a scene where the unraveling Mia Farrow eats raw liver. Health risks aside, Farrow was a vegetarian. Polanski, giving precisely zero fucks, made her repeatedly eat the real stuff over several takes. Then he made her walk into traffic, possibly because she kept complaining about the liver. But don't worry -- he promised her that no one would hit a woman who looked pregnant. So either Polanski had never heard the word "accident," or he didn't care enough about Farrow's life to come up with a believable justification.
Plus, her death would have provided enough liver for at least two sequels.
Polanski's increasing fame and fortune just fueled his insanity. In his 1971 adaptation of Macbeth, he decided to add a scene where a bear gets attacked by a pack of dogs, because nothing says Shakespeare like animal fights.
But he couldn't have dogs attack a real bear, because that would be cruel. So Polanski dressed a stuntman up in a bear suit and set three attack dogs on him. The pooches were so vicious that the stuntman feared for his life, and on the next take insisted that he could only handle one dog, or perhaps maybe a pack of poodles. Polanski nodded, made his best "I appreciate your concern" face, and unleashed all three again.
Columbia Pictures
But as a precaution, he rubbed the costume with cat hair. Dogs don't like cats, right?
During the filming of Chinatown, he ripped a strand of hair out of Faye Dunaway's head because it was catching too much light (apparently "scissors" also isn't in Polanski's vocabulary) and gave himself a cameo where he stuck a prop knife up Jack Nicholson's nose that could have sliced Nicholson's extremely bankable face open if he held it the wrong way. Polanski purposely didn't show Nicholson how he was holding it, because ethical motivational techniques take, like, effort and shit. We're surprised he didn't actually just murder Dunaway at the end of the movie.
#3. Stanley Kubrick Starts His Career With a Gas Attack
The famously insane Stanley Kubrick was just 24 when he made Fear and Desire, a film about four soldiers who are stuck behind enemy lines and slowly lose their minds, possibly because they had to work with Stanley Kubrick. Since at this point in his career Kubrick was just a creepy-looking guy who had made a few documentaries, he didn't have much of a budget to work with. He therefore had to improvise most of the film's special effects without taking little things like "safety" and "common sense" into consideration.
Later, he could afford to plan unsafe, senseless effects.
In particular, he wanted one of the final scenes to be shrouded in fog. Lacking a fog machine, Kubrick, like the evil twin of MacGyver, built one himself by pouring mineral oil and water into a crop sprayer ... without first removing the toxic insecticide already in it.
The fog looked fantastic, but it turned Fear and Desire into The Mist as the drifting insecticide nearly asphyxiated the cast and crew. Collapsing in desperation and acting insane must have been easy when the actors were surrounded by a lethal cloud of poisonous gas.
Kubrick would later disown Fear and Desire, ostensibly because he considered it amateurish, but possibly because someone actually was killed and he wanted to hide the evidence. However, the accidental unleashing of toxic inhalants gave Kubrick his first near-murder boner, inspiring him to purposely harass his actors throughout the rest of his professional life. This is how great careers start, kids!

Is there any way to undo "I'm tired of this song" in Pandora? I accidentally hit it but I really would like to hear it as often as possible. Any way to undo this mistake?
For 'Thumbs Up' and 'Thumbs Down', you can remove the effect by going to "My Profile", selecting the station involved (you might only have one), and then finding the appropriate section (e.g. 'Thumbed-down tracks'). Find the song's entry in that list and click the 'x' to remove it. For 'I'm tired; don't play for awhile', I don't know of a way to explicitly control it.
After 30 days, it will come back.
This is from their blog: "Now there's a way to tell Pandora that you've heard something one too many times: just click Guide Us and select the "I'm tired of this song" choice and we'll put the current song back on the shelf and not play it again on any of your stations in the next 30 days."
I have not been able to find an "undo" button, but you can bring up the song and give it a "thumbs up". That might help.
I ran into this problem and could not find anyway to actually undo it. For a current workaround, occasionally pause Pandora and play the song you accidentally told Pandora you were tired of.

I want to spoof my IP address with the PHP curl function. I'm sending requests to a server with PHP curl, my IP address is $ip2, but I want the server to believe that the request is coming from $ip1. How can I do this?

Questions on Information Security Stack Exchange are expected to relate to Information security within the scope defined by the community. Consider editing the question or leaving comments for improvement if you believe the question can be reworded to fit within the scope. Read more about reopening questions here.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
When the server receives a request, it needs to be able to send a reply back to the client. It knows where to send that reply back because it knows the IP address of the client. You cannot establish an HTTP (or, more generally, TCP) session with a spoofed IP address.
At the IP level, you can send an IP packet with a spoofed source address. That's not going to do much good to connect to a web server though. If the packet isn't a TCP packet sent to port 80 on the server, it's probably not even going to reach the server, it's likely to be blocked by a firewall that's between the server and the Internet.
As soon as you want to establish a TCP connection, the connection starts with the client sending a packet to establish the connection, and the server replies. Until the client has obtained a reply from the server, the connection is not established, and if the client tried to fake subsequent packets, they would probably be blocked by the server-side firewall. With the PHP curl library, you can only make well-formed TCP connections anyway.
Since the server needs to know what IP address the requests come from in order to be able to send back replies, the only way to fake your IP address is to cause these requests to come from a different machine. That is, if you want your IP address to appear to be $ip1, you need to get the machine with the address $ip1 to relay your requests. In other words, you need $ip1 to act as a proxy.
You can spoof the sender IP of UDP packets. You can't spoof your IP with TCP, since you need to receive a response to the handshake. You can only use a proxy to hide your IP.
Since http builds on TCP, you can't spoof your IP when issuing http requests, no matter which client library you use.

The answer to removing trailing whitespace with sed has most of the answer, but I want
sed -i 's/[ \t]*$//' $1
to be able to take arbitrary number of file arguments as a shell script on the command line, including glob arguments. I.e. suppose the script is called
strip_trailing_whitespace. Then I'd like to be able to do both
strip_trailing_whitespace foo.cc bar.cc
strip_trailing_whitespace *.cc *.hh
to strip trailing whitespaces from all files of the form
*.cc and
*.hh. Arguments not based on the answer quoted above are also fine.

QUIP: "I need some quick tips for making a better gravy," a stranger snapped at me as I strolled through Kroger the other day.
"Mine is always lumpy, light, salty and greasy," he said. "What can I do to improve it?"
TIP: We all have those days when gravy does not go the way we want it to.
For lumpy gravy, simply beat it with a whisk until smooth. If this doesn't work, try pouring it in a food processor or blender and beat the heck out of it until it is smooth.
If you don't have the equipment, try passing it through a strainer before serving. All the lumps will be left behind this way.
Too salty can be fixed either by adding several 1/2-inch slices of raw potato and simmering until potatoes are soft, or adding some light brown sugar.
However, if the gravy is super over-salted, just make another batch of gravy, totally salt-free, and then combine the two.
To make light gravy darker, simply add a dash or two of instant coffee or try browning your flour in a dry skillet when making the roux.
Too greasy a gravy can be easily resolved by either skimming off the fat with a spoon or soaking it up with a slice of bread or even a clean piece of paper towel. Simple place either on the top of the gravy to wick up the grease and discard – its' that simple and ...you're welcome!

I want to start off with a disclaimer that I am only a mathematical amateur. Please forgive me for ignorance or any non-standard nomenclature I use here :)
Let's start off with some context.
Let X be a set and < be a binary relation on X (though the use of < is merely suggestive. It has no restrictions related to ordering on it).
Let x be an element of X. We call x accessible under < iff for every element y in X such that y < x, y is also accessible under <. Intuitively, starting at x, all chains x_n < ... < x_1 < x are finite.
(As Joel David Hamkins reminds me, we are concerned with the "smallest" such notion of accessibility. This means that a proof of accessibility forms a finite tree.)
(To clarify Brian Rushton's comment, the only base case is the vacuous case. If there is no element y in X which satisfies y < x, then x is accessible under <).
We say X is well-founded under < iff every element x in X is accessible under <.
This formulation of well-foundedness has a particularly useful for my purposes because it allows us to convert weak induction to strong induction, and it allows us to do so using an arbitrary relation < (assuming we can prove the necessary lemma of well-foundedness).
My ultimate goal is to allow a programmer to write a recursive function using general recursion, then automatically convert it to structural recursion (together with the unproven lemma of well-foundedness mentioned above).
I already know how to do this for recursion.
My problem is that I don't know how to do this for co-recursion.
Co-recursion is analogous to co-induction, which is as I understand it, somewhat non-standard in mathematics. Categorically, I know induction and co-induction are dual to each other. I am convinced there is a dual notion to well-foundedness and accessibility above.
Does anyone know if there is research or writing on this subject? The only possible lead I have seen so far is a paper entitled Non-Wellfounded Sets by Peter Aczel. Any other resources, help, or advice would be greatly appreciated!

|The Parents - Gene & Virginia Allen - Newlyweds in 1950
As for my dad's family, they lived in Neosho, Missouri. In the 1930 census, my then 2 yr old father was living with his mother and stepfather. For some inexplicable reason, he was listed as Gene Wilson instead of Gene Allen. This mistake by the enumerator caused me no end of grief trying to find him until it occurred to me to look for my grandmother instead. Bingo. By 1940 Dad was living with his maternal grandparents who later adopted him. Since Dad is thankfully still with us at age almost 84, I took a chance and asked him if he remembered the address. He did. 316 Wheeler St. Easy peasy. Except Dad's grandparents were living on Jefferson St. in 1930. The ED for that address was 73-13. Hopefully that will get me in the ball park.

1949 Chevy 3100 - Alphabet SoupWritten by on January 8, 2014 Contributors: Robert McGaffin The ABC's of an A-D turned G Machine
Don't let the Barrett-Jackson fences with the Schwartz Performance shop signs on each side of Jeff Schwartz's '49 A-D Chevy fool you – it isn't that kind of truck. Sure, with its bright teal paintjob and chrome-plated grille from Brothers it looks one of those super nice restored old pickups rolling through a Barrett-Jackson auction, but that's where the similarity ends. The saga of Jeff's '49 Chevy A-D actually started many years before he scored the truck from his friend Hank Groves – his grandfather and uncle both owned A-Ds while Jeff was growing up.
In the state Jeff acquired it from Hank, the A-D was already on its way to becoming a hot rod. The stock 216-inch Stovebolt with its closed driveline was long gone, and it now had a shaved firewall. Whoever sold the truck to Hank had grafted on a Heidts IFS, plus a few other goodies, and then ran out of steam. Jeff picked up where he left off and hung a four-link on it with some trick front and rear sway bars.
As soon as Jeff had the reworked the A-D chassis ready enough to plop a cab onto, a German buyer came along and bought it to ship home. Apparently there are some countries that are a little strict about maintaining an OEM frame. Fortunately we don't have some of those goofy laws here in the United States, so the door was opened for Schwartz Performance to add another application to its line of high-performance G machine-style chassis.
In no time Jeff was hustling to develop a new A-D specific design. Everything from the front crossmember to the drop spindles and tubular control arms on the new A-D chassis were made in-house at Schwartz Performance. The Chevy and GMC A-D's natural tendency to be top-heavy is discouraged with fore and aft Schwartz racing-style sway bars with Heim-jointed ends.
The double-adjustable shock absorbers are from Viking Performance, and the rack-and-pinion steering is from AGR Performance of Ft. Worth, Texas. For rearend gears there's a Moser Engineering 9-inch Ford packing 3.50s with a Detroit Truetrac. The disc brakes at all four corners are 13-inchers from Wilwood. For rolling stock Jeff went with XXR 962 style wheels shod with 275x35 ZR18 BFG tires.
Under the hood, the '49 is powered by a 2009 Chevy 4.8 with GM #243 aluminum heads. The fuel injection is a GM E-38 sucking strained air from a Spectre air-cleaner. The exhaust system is where Jeff says the strong-running little 4.8 picked up some extra ponies. Its Hooker Headers feature 15⁄8-inch diameter tubing that feeds into 2½-inch mandrel bent stainless steel fabricated by Schwartz Performance muffled with Pypes high-performance mufflers.
To help the 4.8 engine look a little less complicated than an octopus eating an air-conditioner Jeff installed a pair of chromed Holley valve covers set apart by a custom-made Schwartz engine cover. Jeff says an educated guess would place the 4.8 engine's output at around 350 horsepower at 5,800 rpm. The four-speed automatic overdrive transmission is a 4L65E shifted with a Spectre shifter.
The '49 Chevy's bright teal PPG paintwork was done by Jerry Lins of Harvard, Illinois, with graphics by Matt Eby. Those good-looking heavily varnished stake sides were a surprise gift from Deena, Jeff's girlfriend. Looking inside the truck's cab reveals a black suede-covered dashboard packed with Haneline gauges. The stock '49 seat is covered in black vinyl with black suede. The carpeting is a kit Jeff bought from Brothers, and installed himself. A Lecarra steering wheel sits on top of a Flaming River steering column. No old truck should be without the finer things in life, so Jeff installed a kickass A/C system from Vintage Air.
Jeff has already had the '49 out to the autocross tracks, and has been enjoying shutting down late-model LS-powered car. "It's a sports car disguised as an old truck."

In tonight's game, the knight went down to 0 hp. Later that round, the paladin granted the knight 7 temporary hp. As the DM, too lazy to slow the game down to look the precise rules up, I ruled that the knight returned to consciousness and was no longer dying. Was I right? How do temporary hp interact with the unconscious and dying states?
Sign up
- Anybody can ask a question
- Anybody can answer
- The best answers are voted up and rise to the top
That's a good question. (And I agree with your off-the cuff ruling, as any decision made quickly is better than one that disrupts the flow of the game.)
Let's start with some definitions:
Thus, because temporary hit points do not count as "healing" the character who was dying would remain at 0 hit points, unconscious, and should continue to make death saving throws. However the temporary hit points would protect against subsequent Coup De Graces and other DM agression.

Charlotte, N.C. - The 49ers men's basketball programs held their annual Bojangle's Kids Clinic on Saturday, May 4 in the Charles Heyward Memorial Practice facility. The clinic featured boys and girls from the Charlotte Metropolitan area ranging from four to twelve years of age.
The clinic was run by a combination of Men's Basketball staff and players. The kids were put through different stations that were run like they would in a regular 49er Basketball practice. Stations included, lay-up technique which featured former 49er player Colby Lewis, and rebound and post play technique which featured current 49er standout Willie Clayton. Other stations included: an agility station, a defensive technique station, and dribbling station.
The kids were also split into two different teams nearing the end of the clinic to participate in a friendly relay race which was oriented around weaving through cones and chairs while dribbling.
At the end of the clinic 49ers Men's Head Basketball Coach Alan Major spoke with the clinic participants and parents, teaching them about hard work and dedication in collegiate athletics.

Child of FieldSet has height that extends the contents of Field Set (clips correctly)
GXT 3.0.3-SNAPSHOT (11/27) and 3.0.2
Internet Explorer 8
Chrome 25
Windows 7 - 64 Bit
I create a FieldSet with a child of VerticalLayoutContainer. When using browser's tools to highlight the DIV within the field set, the height extends beyond the border of the fieldset. Contents do not get displayed (so cropping is working), but when it comes to use of margins, height calculations, etc., it is causing issues.
I have provided screenshots of DIV highlighed as shown in IE8 and Chrome.
Internet Explorer 8
Chrome 25
In VLC add ContentPanel with Margins of 5, no margin shows up at bottom. Because of this cropping issue, having to play around with margins to get things to appear as you expect. Also, you will see that under Chrome there is a bottom margin, but it isn't the same as the top margin. So not only are margins between top and bottom different, but the appearances between browsers is now different.
ContentPanel p = new ContentPanel(); p.setHeadingText("panel"); container.add(p, new VerticalLayoutData(1, 1, new Margins(5)));

Thanks, I've confirmed this issue, though am not yet certain of the cause or a workaround. It seems to behave properly in FF17, but incorrectly in both IE8 and Chrome 23. There are slight differences between how it is broken in Chrome 23 and IE8 though.
We'll update this thread when we've come to any conclusion on the bug, or if a workaround becomes available.

And by the way, there is no problem with having an inherits statement for the User module - but it isn't required either. GXT depends on and inherits User, so it will implicitly be added automatically.

Simplest test case I can produce, broken in Chrome 23 (just barely too tall), in IE8 (slightly too tall). It appears that GXT is measuring the element that it should be, but that these browser report sizes that do not make sense when asked for how much space is available inside the fieldset's body (they either include too much top or bottom padding/margin that is owned by the parent), while FF17 reports the correct values.
public class Test implements EntryPoint { private FieldSet fieldSet = new FieldSet(); private VerticalLayoutContainer container = new VerticalLayoutContainer(); public Test() { ContentPanel p = new ContentPanel(); p.setHeadingText("panel"); container.add(p, new VerticalLayoutData(1, 1)); fieldSet.setHeadingText("field set"); fieldSet.add(container); } public void onModuleLoad() { Viewport viewport = new Viewport(); viewport.add(fieldSet, new MarginData(20));//margins help to show overlap in firebug/inspector RootPanel.get().add(viewport); } }

I use Canon EOS 5D with Canon EF 15 mm f/2.8 Fisheye on Nodal Ninja 5 L. I have used the camera settings 53,5 for the lower rail and 79,5 for the upper rail (as suggested on the camera setting page). When I stitch the images in PTGui the stitch between the zenith image and the others are horrible. If i leave out the zenith image I get a good stitch.
Does anyone have suggestions on what I should change in order to get it right. I have tried at least ten times with the same result.
Best regards,

The government says Halliburton, which was a contractor involved in drilling the oil well, destroyed computer simulations it performed in the months after the accident. Those simulations didn't bear out Halliburton's contention that BP erred by not following its advice on using certain equipment.
By TOM FOWLER
Halliburton will plead guilty to destroying evidence in the
wake of the April 2010 Deepwater Horizon disaster, the Justice
Department said Thursday.
The government said the company, which was a contractor
involved in drilling the oil well that exploded in the Gulf of
Mexico, destroyed computer simulations it performed in the
months after the accident.
Those simulations didn't bear out Halliburton's contention
that BP, which owned the well, erred by not following its
advice on using certain equipment, the Justice Department
BP had hired Halliburton to manage the process in which
cement is used to seal pipes into place in oil and gas wells,
preventing dangerous leaks. Investigators found that natural
gas surged up onto the drilling rig and exploded, killing 11
and unleashing the worst offshore oil spill in US history.
Government investigators warned companies involved in
drilling the well to preserve all evidence related to the
accident. But a Halliburton supervisor told engineers who
conducted the simulations to delete the data, according to a
filling in Federal District Court in New Orleans.
In addition to pleading guilty to one count of destruction
of evidence and paying an unspecified fine, Halliburton will
donate $55 million to the National Fish and Wildlife
Foundation, the government said.
Halliburton has long denied responsibility for the Deepwater
Horizon disaster, telling investigators that BP ignored its
warnings that the cement job would likely fail if BP didn't use
additional "centralizers," which hold pipes in place. The
simulations showed that the number of centralizers didn't make
a difference, the government said.
In a separate matter Thursday, Halliburton said it is part
of a federal antitrust investigation into the
hydraulic-fracturing industry.
A Justice Department spokeswoman said the antitrust division
"is investigating the possibility of anticompetitive practices
involving pressure-pumping services performed on oil and gas
Halliburton said other firms have been contacted by the
Justice Department and that Halliburton didn't believe it was
being singled out for scrutiny.

I think these accidents must to be complete investigate, for the Justice Department.
Halliburton should be charged morethan just a little fine and donation and what is $55.0 milllion dollars in billions money milked from Iraq war of US tax payers? They can get away because Dick Cheney!!!destroy criminal evidence what kind of company is this?Another BP?

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

A reported "rolling domestic" on Carmi's north side led to the arrest of a woman on drug- and traffic-related offenses around 4:15 p.m. Wednesday.
A Carmi Police Department incident report identified the woman arrest as 34-year-old Danielle L. Eyer Barnett of Crossville.
The report said officers responded to the area of Fourth and Maple streets following a report of a man and woman arguing and a red car involved. Officers found the described vehicle in the 800 block of Fourth Street. Subsequent investigation led to Barnett being jailed pending the setting of bail on preliminary charges of driving while her driver's license was suspended and unlawful possession of methamphetamine.

Eric Fithyan, the new owner of Chambers and James Funeral Homes, is pleased to be returning home.
"When I went away to mortuary school, I never thought I'd be able to come back," said Fithyan, a 2002 Brooke High School graduate and 2004 graduate of the Pittsburgh Institute of Mortuary Science.
He noted many young adults like himself have left the local area to find work and added he's thankful for the opportunity presented by Jennifer Chambers Ficca and Fred and Jerry Chambers, previous owners of the the funeral homes.
"I just really want to say to the community that I'm grateful to be back," Fithyan said.
The Chambers said it was Fithyan's local roots and his experience in managing funeral homes that sold them on Fithyan.
"We wouldn't have sold to anyone out of town," said Jennifer. "He made his own way (in the funeral business), and he has lots of ideas."
"He's got lots of energy," added Fred.
Fithyan and the Chambers marked the occasion with open houses at both locations that included live music, refreshments and a nonperishable food drive to benefit local charities.
Jennifer and Fred, who are brother and sister and had owned and operated the two funeral homes with Fred's wife Jerry, have been involved with the funeral business much of their lives.
Their father and mother, Floyd and Genevieve, took over Chambers Funeral Home in 1945 following the death of Floyd's brother, Fred L. Chambers, who opened it in 1931 at its present location at 1030 Main St., Wellsburg.
The family had acquired James Funeral Home at 1245 Main St., Follansbee, in 1974.
The Chambers said they aren't read to retire yet and plan to remain involved, assisting Fithyan with the operation of the two funeral homes.
But they are looking forward to having more time for themselves and their family, which includes several grandchildren and grandnephews and nieces.
"Fred and Jennifer will be here. They have been supporting me through this transition," said Fithyan.
While attending mortuary school, Fithyan worked for two and a half years for York, Pa.-based Heffner Funeral Homes.
Following graduation from mortuary school and Point Park University, where he earned a bachelor of science degree, he worked for three years for Beinhauer Family Funeral Homes of Pittsburgh, serving as manager of the Beinhauer-Fryer Funeral Home.
Fithyan went on to serve as director of bereavement, spirituality and volunteer services for Cedars Community Hospice in Monroeville, Pa. He said the one-to-one contact he had with people facing terminal illness is something he'll always remember.
"I was able to touch people's lives and people touched my life. That is what drew me to the funeral business," he said.
Over the years Chambers and James Funeral Homes have expanded their services to reflect changing needs and technology, offering pre-need counseling, death education seminars, pet cremations, video presentations on the deceased during visitation and online obituaries and messages of condolence.
Fithyan said the funeral home has sold cemetery monuments for many years but visitors to the funeral home soon will be able to view them there.
He added the funeral home also will offer a variety of arrangements for those planning cremations as well as burials.
As a certified funeral celebrant through the Insight Institute, Fithyan also has been trained to officiate at funerals, a task that involves sharing information about the deceased from loved ones who are unable or uncomfortable speaking themselves.
In addition to the Chambers, Fithyan will be aided by long-time Chambers and James staff members Ron Schenk, a licensed funeral director; Wendy Craft, a pre-need counselor; Clara Davis, a funeral attendant; and Fithyan's parents, Ernie and Teresa, who will serve as part-time funeral attendants while continuing to hold full-time jobs elsewhere.

The senate monitors all topics of interest to faculty and attempts to assure that the faculty perspective is considered prior to decision making on all important governance issues.
The Faculty Senate was created in November, 1959, with the ratification of the constitution of the faculty to create a mechanism "through which the faculty as a whole can initiate recommendations for the promotion of the interest of the university community."
This broad charge, combined with the specific constitutional obligation to consider any recommendation submitted in writing by a faculty member, has led the senate to take an interest in a very wide spectrum of academic and policy issues. Please feel free to contact a faculty senator if you have questions or concerns regarding any policy or procedure.

We all know that no matter how hard we try or how many laws are made or how many police officers there are, this world just can't exist. Stuff happens. That's why I choose to practice my second amendment right and carry a firearm.
Do I go around looking like this all the time?
Heck no! Not a very cute look if you ask me. And it might scare a few people off. Just because I have the right to carry doesn't mean I have to try to look like a bad ass and go around with my pistol in full view all day long. Instead, I keep my right to carry in mind when purse shopping!
Not only does the perfect purse have to have an easily accessible outside pocket for my keys and cell phone. It also has to have a little spot for my gun. When I first started looking for purses that would fit this bill, all I found were butch looking tough leather bags that look like something some Amazon woman might carry.
Then I discovered they don't have to be designed specifically to conceal a gun to be able to work for me. Here are a couple of my purses that work just fine for this purpose.
This one is a Liz Claiborne. I love the contrasting yellow lining and the stripey straps. And my LuxeLink looks so cute hanging on there!
Bet you'd never guess I have a revolver in that zippered part right above the keys and cell phone pocket flap!
And here we have a Tommy Hilfiger leather hobo bag. Cute huh?
The pink lining is pretty cute too. Still looks pretty innocent, huh?
Well, lookie there! It's my revolver. Perfect fit, huh? So many times I have felt much safer knowing I can protect myself and my family should the need arise. And I still look good while I'm at it!
If you're still not convinced having a firearm might be a good idea, take a couple if minutes and browse around over here.

Details of Carrie Underwood's Engagement Ring: Big, Yellow, and Sparkly All Over!
Sean Kilpatrick/The Canadian Press/AP
More details have emerged about Carrie Underwood's gorgeous engagement ring. The sizeable center stone, first spotted when Underwood flashed her ring while cheering on fiancé Mike Fisher and the rest of his Ottawa Senators teammates at their Monday night game, is actually a flawless yellow diamond, designed for her by jeweler Johnathon Arndt, who said in a release, "This ring is a symbol of love from Mike Fisher to Carrie Underwood," as he wished the couple congratulations. This isn't the first time the American Idol alum has worn Arndt's baubles: back in 2007 at the Country Music Awards, the 26 year-old performed her hit "So Small" in a diaphanous canary yellow chiffon gown bedecked with the jeweler's twin imperial jadeite and diamond butterfly pins worth a staggering six million dollars! To see more of Arndt's handiwork, go to johnathonarndt.com. – Emily Hsieh

``Theoretical mathematics'': toward a cultural synthesis of mathematics and theoretical physics
Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: Is speculative mathematics dangerous? Recent interactions between physics and mathematics pose the question with some force: traditional mathematical norms discourage speculation, but it is the fabric of theoretical physics. In practice there can be benefits, but there can also be unpleasant and destructive consequences. Serious caution is required, and the issue should be considered before, rather than after, obvious damage occurs. With the hazards carefully in mind, we propose a framework that should allow a healthy and positive role for speculation.

The Happiest Season of All
It is a happy season......and you know what makes me happiest of all? Finding the perfect place to buy gifts that are just right for pretty much everyone on my list....and even better, I can shop while sitting on my couch, while enjoying a nice fire in the fireplace, hot cider in hand. Online is the way to go.
My criteria is pretty strict: 1) I would personally want the gift for myself, but know that it is perfect for "fill in the blank". 2) It is from a place I can count on for great quality, service and really beautifully unique ideas. 3) I can make it even more personal with a bit of "customizing". 4) The value exceeds the price! (and the prices fit all sorts of occasions). 5) They provide really nice gift wrapping....after all, opening a beautifully wrapped present is a big part of the whole experience, isn't it?
So.....meet Mark and Graham!
Mark and Graham is the latest venture from Williams-Sonoma and it is all about wonderful gifts that take the monogram to a whole new level. I never let the holidays go by without a visit to Williams-Sonoma for cooking inspiration....and I have to admit, I do love the apple cider! So it is especially nice to know that there is a place where I can find gifts for everyone, from Grandma to nieces, Uncles to hostess gifts, that will be truly appreciated and most importantly....used!
Gifts include little things like monogrammed soaps, perfect for the hostess that deserves a special something....guest towels that are so very pretty.....
Bedside water carafes....love these!
fun pillows....
cozy throws....
and luxury towels.... (those are for us!).....
leather trays....so perfect for pretty much anyone!.....
Get those gamers off of their devices and onto a backgammon board....so much more personal!.....
There is so much more, glassware, jewelry, scarves, vases, picture frames....you will just have to visit their website yourself. I have more shopping to do.....
But before I go....one last thing and it will be a wrap....ahem. Mark and Graham has excellent wrapping paper, boxes and tags if you like to do all the wrapping yourself.....
A whole new way of looking at "tagging"....what once was old is new again...or something? Love these very simple tags!.......
And there is always a wine bottle that needs a wrap, right? these are perfect!.....
While I do love to wrap gifts, sometimes it is very nice to know that you can count on a beautiful wrap job with just the click of a button....and off it goes across the country with what took very little effort.....but lots of thought, which is really what counts!
My season is now officially a little bit happier.
Thanks Mark and Graham!

Posting an event online will help draw people to your event. Make the most of this opportunity!
Here are a few best practices for writing event content.
The best titles are short, descriptive and provide the site visitor with a reason to explore your event details further. Put yourself in our site visitor's shoes - what would pique your interest?
MailChimp, a bulk mailing application recommends: "When it comes to subject lines, don't sell what's inside. Tell what's inside."
Make sure your event's title can stand alone - so people will get an understanding of what the event is even if only the title is displayed.
In various pages on the calendar, or in calendar feeds, this long title could get truncated to, for example, NYU Cryptobiology Department's Annual Billie... which doesn't really get to the heart of the event's purpose.
In the Event description section, put the most important information at the top, concentrating on why people will want to come to your event. Make sure to include as many details about your event as possible.
Make sure to check the validity of any external links before adding them to your event.
If you're adding links in your event description, choose to have the link open in a new window.
Instead of using the full URL to the external site (e.g. http://www.nyu.edu), or the phrase Click here as your link text, try linking descriptive words. For example:
If you choose to add your own images to an event, make sure it is an image that you own, or have the rights to re-use (see our Digital Rights information), like images offered under a Creative Commons license (e.g., www.flickr.com/creativecommons/).
Need some tips on writing content for your event descriptions?
Take a look at our Writing for the Web Best Practices page from the University Identity and Style Guide.
In LiveWhale, you'll see a space for a summary in the description. The summary should be short and it will show up in the list of events. Also, on the event detail page, it will appear ABOVE the description. So make sure you description doesn't start with the same content as your summary .

Discovered in 1985 by the Rice University research team headed by Richard Smalley, Robert Curl, Jr., and Sir Harold Kroto, carbon-60, also known as buckminsterfullerene or a buckyball, is an allotrope of carbon that has a molecular shape similar to a soccer ball or a geodesic dome of futurist architect R. Buckminster Fuller. Extremely stable and capable of conducting electricity, buckyballs opened up a new area of study in fullerenes, which are being explored for their potential in nanotechnology, electronics, optics, and other material-science fields.
In the discovery of buckyballs, pulsed laser beams directed at a sample of carbon in the main chamber of the AP2 instrument created a plume of vaporized carbon hotter than the temperature at which some stars are formed. A stream of helium brought about sudden and extreme cooling and the clustering of carbon atoms. A skimmer at the threshold of an adjacent vacuum chamber collected the clusters for analysis by a mass spectrometer.
Smalley, Curl, and Kroto shared the 1996 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for "their discovery of fullerenes."
