MA Supervision
I am willing to supervise graduate students that are interested in writing a Thesis or MRP on any topic related to Canadian Politics, Canadian Public Policy, and Indigenous-settler relations in Canada. In particular, I would welcome students interested in pursuing research on Inuit self-government in the Canadian north and First Nation-Municipal Intergovernmental Relations in Canada.
For students interested in pursuing graduate work in political science, please read the "grad school advice" file in the "documents" section of this webpage. Also download the following file (PDF), which outlines the basic structure of MRPs written under my supervision. You can also download my MRP proposal template here (MS-Word File).
Finally, I encourage prospective and current M.A. students to approach me right away about your MRP topic and the possibility of me serving as your supervisor, even if you don't have a topic chosen yet. I always have a number of research projects "in the bank" that would make for excellent MRPs so I encourage you to approach me as soon as possible if you are interested in working with me.

Tax Filings
From Noisebridge
This page holds copies of our tax filings with the IRS and the California FTB.
They may be modified to remove personal contact information for the officers, and thus are not official copies. Originals may be requested in accordance with California and federal laws.
Noisebridge's fiscal year matches the calendar year. Thus, all reported tax years are the same as the calendar year.
We filed several forms for the 2009 tax year:
- File:2009-990EZ.pdf - Our Federal 990EZ filing
- File:2009-199.pdf - Our California 199 filing
- File:2009-RRFR.pdf - Our California Charitable Registration Renewal Fee Report
We filed a 990N form for the 2008 tax year. This signified that we collected less than $25,000.

6 Diet Fads For People Who Will Try Anything Except Exercise
#3. Toe Rings
Show us a girl with a toe ring and we'll show you a girl with a butterfly tramp stamp. (Hint - It's the same girl.) But seriously, toe rings have long been considered the go-to jewelry of sassy broads and floozy foxes alike for years. And we're thinking those girls are going to shit a brick when they find out there are some rings that are specifically marketed to help women lose weight.
Which is more of a bonus than "Making you irresistible to foot fetishists."
Not by forcing them to run from the dozens of suitors chasing them on account of their sexy ass toe jewelry, as you probably assumed, but by making them silly walk.
Slim Rings consist of a pair of flexible silicone plastic rings that fasten around your big toes. Their main feature is a small bump that points downwards, so each time you put pressure on your foot, you shift the distribution of your weight. This causes the way you stand and walk to change, putting strain on less used muscles and thus supposedly making the muscles from your head to toe work more efficiently. The program is supposed to particularly affect the problem areas of the stomach and inner thighs, making fatassed people less fatassed and skinny people even skinnier.
Or photoshopped people even more photoshopped.
Of course, affecting an unnatural walking style can screw up your legs and posture. Or that you're voluntarily wearing the equivalent of a nasty callus on both your big toes instead of addressing any of the actual causes of weight gain, like diet or real exercise. Calorie counting is for the birds. Birds who aren't wearing magic rings on their toes.
#2. Flava Spray
Obviously the biggest downside of dieting is the fact that the foods you're supposed to eat taste like Bland City, USA. But guess what? This is the future, bro. There's no reason you can't get all the taste you want out of a taste can.
Flavor Spray is a calorie-free spray-on flavor by gourmet chef David Burke that claims to add, say, Parmesan flavor to your pasta without all those cheesy calories. There's a range of 25 flavors available, so you can go nuts: root beer float liverwurst, hot and sour oranges, banana split chicken, mango raspberry bubblegum parmesan cheese teriyaki whiskey.
Is anyone else craving a mango raspberry Parmesan cheese salad right now?
And yes, of course there is a bacon flavor, which is probably why Flavor Spray was actually named one of the best inventions of the year 2005 by the Time Magazine.
The problem is unless you're looking to make a minor and inconsequential change to what you're eating (i.e., making your cracker taste like a spicy cracker) eating something sprayed with Flavor Spray would be like having your common sense pelted with monkey asses. You know what you're having, you know what it should be tasting like, yet your taste buds claim it's something completely different. Bacon-flavored celery isn't going to say "bacon" to our taste buds. It's going to say, "Celery dipped in pork chemicals, thanks to the hubris of a man trying to play God."
David Burke is a madman, and he will perish by his own foul creation.
It's at this point you realize, hey, Flavor Spray is just another spice. As this review points out, spices aren't what make your foods fatty. If you want to spice up some plain almonds, you can do that with salt or pepper or chili powder or any number of things in your cabinet without adding calories. But no spray will make your rice crackers taste like a cheeseburger. So selling it as a magical diet product ("Replace Fat with Flavor!") falls into "bullshit" territory.
#1. Pregnant Lady Pee
So you've tried every weight loss method known to man, outside of diet and exercise. There's got to be something you've missed, some wonder drug that's going to take you back to the measurements where you can fit into your swimming suit or, failing that, even the room where you keep your swimming suit.
We've heard that a few years in a forced labor camp does wonders for your waistline.
And then you find out about something you've not yet tried: losing weight through hCG hormone injections.
Congratulations, you have just won the gold medal in Wrong Olympics! If you'd bothered to Google around a bit before plunging that syringe in, you'd have found that the hCG hormone -- the one now flowing in your veins -- is attained from a very specific source:
Human urine.
Namely, the piss of pregnant women.
A small, sad percentage of you are ordering right now.
While the idea of hCG as a weight loss drug has been around since the 1950s, author Kevin Trudeau was the guy to take this pee rocket to the moon with his best-selling book, The Weight Loss Cure "They" Don't Want You to Know About. The book, by the way, was the latest installment in a line of self help health books that had so far taught us how to rip a new one to diseases such as cancer, herpes, AIDS, diabetes, multiple sclerosis, attention deficit disorder and muscular dystrophy.
Now, there's a few things you should know about Kevin. 1) the man is telling you to syringe piss in your body, and 2) he is a convicted felon with a criminal record the length of your arm who has no medical training or proof of his claims whatsoever. Three, he looks like this:
We might buy drugs from this man, but definitely not medicine.
Kevin's little scam didn't make him a millionaire, it made him a goddamn BILLIONAIRE and paved the way for countless hacks peddling hCG as a valid obesity cure. Which it's not, by the way. At the same time practitioners are injecting wee-wee into their thighs, they're also subsisting on 500 calories a day. So yeah, they're losing weight, but it's because they're officially anorexic, not because of the lady lemonade flowing through their veins.

Well, I'm still debating on the kit I need to buy to allow me to take high quality panos and another question has come up that I can't find an answer to. Hopefully it's not too basic a question!
Does the focal length of the lens really matter? I've always used a wide angle for landscape as I wanted to get as much in the shot as possible and obviously a 17mm focal length will get more of the scene than a 70mm. However with panoramas doesn't that become irrelevant. If this is the case, would using my 50mm prime (the Canon f/1. be as good as (or better than) heavy glass such as a Canon 24-105 or lower quality glass such as the Sigma 18-200?
What am I missing?

Unlike the summer concerts (pictured here), winter concerts at Kirstenbosch Gardens take place in the cosy Silvertree Restaurant. Photo courtesy Damien du Toit
There is no better way to spend a winter Sunday evening in Cape Town than at the hugely popular Kirstenbosch Winter Warmer concerts.
Relax with a glass of fine Cape wine and enjoy the friendly atmosphere as you watch Cape Town's top musical talent in one of the most beautiful settings that the Mother City has to offer – a very special experience.

But make sure you come a little early and take a stroll through the gardens to take in the breathtaking setting.
As the concerts are very popular, it's important that you get tickets early to avoid disappointment. The concerts are from 18h00 to 20h30.
The new season of Kirstenbosch Winter Warmer concerts runs from Sunday May 7 to October 29, 2009.
Tickets are available from the Silvertree Restaurant (Tel: +27 21 762 9585). They cost R81 for Botanical Society members and R90 for non-members.

Ford Indy speedster V8 - Chasing Perfection - With Extra Photos!Written by Mike Finnegan on August 2, 2012 Contributors: Wes Allison It's Officially America's Most Beautiful Roadster
The elusive AMBR award for hot rod building has tormented many a builder and customer who toiled for years to possess it but failed. At each year's Grand National Roadster show, the America's Most Beautiful Roadster competition is judged by committee, and winning is not just about swirl-free paint and having every bolt head clocked the same way. Half of the criteria is based on how the cars are presented to the judges; every roadster must be driven in front of the judges in a confined space. Entrants have to fire up their engines cold, then drive in a circle from position in the field of entries and past judges who are scrutinizing every aspect of the car, and then park it. The exhaust needs to sound right. The tire fitment must be on point. Rubber scuffing on the ground because the alignment is off? You might as well just keep on driving right out of the building. It's that serious. Even how the driver looks in the car matters; there can't be an awkward pose required in the seat, because the judges are going to see how comfortable the driver is within the hot rod. The left knee can't hit the dashboard when a judge asks to push in the clutch. Microscopic details mean the difference between winning and losing, and spending seven figures on a competitive AMBR car is the rule and not the exception. The winning hot rod needs to be perfect.
Since 1950, the AMBR title has been bestowed 65 times to 62 different hot rods. There was a tie in 1955 between Blackie Gejeian's '27 Ford roadster called "Shishkabob" and Ray Anderegg's roadster of the same vintage. Richard Peters won in 1958 and 1959 with his Ala Kart '29 Ford truck. Bob Reisner won twice in 1967 and 1968 with his custom-bodied Invader. The litany of past AMBR cars includes only six track-style roadsters. Make that seven now that Bill Lindig's Indy Speedster V8 stole the show in 2012.
Bill hasn't always owned this fabled roadster, but he's followed it over the years--along with the rest of the hot rodding world--as race-car builder Jackie Howerton made progress on the scratch-built car, one part at a time. The project has been on and off the radar for nearly two decades, showing up at events in unfinished form and wowing hot rodders with a level of craftsmanship and ingenuity not seen before. This is due in part to Jackie's IndyCar racing experience but mostly because he's a skilled machinist, a master fabricator, and a rabid perfectionist. Behind the wheel, he won championships. Behind a garage door, he fashioned art from aluminum and steel, often tossing near-perfect, hand-formed body panels in the trash and starting over until he was satisfied with the result. The running joke in his neighborhood was that if you knew which day Jackie was taking out the trash, you could probably scab yourself a complete car from his refuse.
When the opportunity came to buy Jackie's unfinished roller, Bill didn't hesitate for a second. He had watched the car morph from a bare tube chassis into a torsion bar–suspended entrant skeleton with hand-pounded body panels, each raw car-show appearance punctuated with another jaw-dropping modification. The steering and suspension parts are stainless steel. Jackie machined door latches, hinges, and a fuel filler. The firewall began life as a billet of aluminum and was sculpted with an end mill into a part that's also an engine mid-plate and front-suspension mounting point. The engineering and detail that you don't see in the Speedster is astounding. Because the car never got as far as the paint booth or interior shop, everyone who viewed the roadster over the years had a vision of what the final result should be. Bill had his own ideas, too, and sent the car to So-Cal Speed Shop for completion. That process took four more years.
Finishing someone else's project is always dicey, but this one had a special pitfall. The Speedster was famous among hard-core hot rodders, and the fab work was on par with the best ever seen, so finishing it in the manner Jackie intended, while simultaneously putting Bill's mark on it, proved difficult. It was not taken lightly by Pete Chapouris of So-Cal, his staff, the subcontractors, or Bill. Shortcuts were not an option. It was a challenge and an opportunity, as So-Cal had never before won the AMBR award, and although the shop would be bringing an underdog body style into the fray, it wasn't any ordinary hot rod, either.
The lengths to which the build crew went to continue the theme are astounding. The car arrived at So-Cal with the chassis only tack-welded together. Monty "Moose" Hutchinson spent days practicing Jackie's welding style, extending the original TIG welds around the tubing so fans wouldn't be able to tell where Jackie's welds ended and the new ones began. Jackie had not yet considered where the clutch linkage would poke through the firewall, where the drag link would be located through the body, or where the exhaust would be routed, so those were all modifications that needed to be made. The cowl needed a functioning vent, an engine of equal worth had to be assembled and fitted, the interior needed upholstery--the list was long. And, most important, the question of how to paint the car had to be answered. The years went by fast, but the outcome was worth it.
Is it the perfect hot rod? That depends on who you ask. We would have chosen a different engine configuration, but that's just us. Some fans wish it had never seen the business end of an HVLP gun, because the raw look was Jackie's signature. Yet the AMBR win is certainly vindication for everyone involved in finishing the roadster. Not many Track Ts have earned the title, so clearly this is a special car. Perhaps the best confirmation anyone can give is from Jackie himself, who smiled when he saw the finished product.

The rear view gives you an appreciation of the incredible compound curves in the handmade body, all the way down to the bellypan.The outside of the body was sprayed in Mercedes-Benz Iridium Silver by Mick's Paint and striped by Dennis Ricklefs. The inside was left bare to display the fine hammer work on the body panels.The '50s-vintage magnesium Halibrand wheels were polished and accented with one-off, Rudge-style bronze knockoffs. It's one thing to give a car a name. Designing a logo takes the build to a whole new level.Polished stainless steel was used to create the torsion-bar suspension and steering components, while Wilwood 12-inch discs do the stopping and So-Cal aluminum Speedshocks do the damping.It's touches like the machined fuel filler that set this car apart from the rest. Jackie Howerton believed he had a better way to do things than simply buying mass-produced or OEM parts. The cap is hinged on the right side and held shut by the flip-up retainer on the left.The billet aluminum firewall doubles as a mid-plate motor mount. The starter actually bolts to the firewall, which was given a sand-cast look in the recessed areas.Note the delicately detailed design in the wheel, and more interestingly, the snap-ring retaining the wheel.Thousands of dollars worth of NAS (National Aerospace Standard) cadmium-coated hardware was used exclusively to assemble the Speedster. NAS bolts have more than double the tensile strength of low-carbon steel hardware found at your local Home Depot, and you can order the exact shank and grip length needed in regular- and tight-tolerance configurations.
The headers were TIG-welded and then hand-filed so the welds disappeared, making the transition from primary tubes to collectors look seamless. The coating is a titanium ceramic material applied by Kelli Inman.Art Chrisman is responsible for the 450hp, 353ci Ford. It's topped with a trio of Holley two-barrels and a Clay Cook custom air-cleaner assembly. Cook also machined the slick valve covers. The engine is backed by a Borg Warner T-5 five-speed trans with a Centerforce clutch and a torque tube–style driveline fabricated by Howerton.The car is indeed a driver. Each of those aluminum side tanks holds 10 gallons of fuel, and they're plumbed together by a hose hidden beneath them. Way back in 2010, when the heavy fabrication was completed, 500 test miles were put on the roadster to ensure it would thrill Bill when he was behind the wheel.The minimalist interior is modeled after a '50s GT-style race car with exposed chassis tubing and wooden floor inserts. The gauges are by Smith Custom, the wheel was wrapped by Carl Olson and Larry Amboy in a fashion we've yet to see on a hot rod. Ultra Leather covers the dash, door panels and hand-fabbed aluminum seats. Gabe Lopez handled the stitchwork. The handle to the left of the driver seat is a hydraulic emergency brake.The superlight doors follow a '27 Track T shape but swing on Howerton's own hinges and latching system. Note the recesses welded into the 1-3/4 x 0.090 chrome-moly chassis tubing to clear the doorframes.Torsion bars carry the miniscule weight of the Indy Speedster, while a Watts link keeps the Halibrand quick-change rearend centered in the chassis.

This question already has an answer here:
- How are side pots built? 6 answers
I wonder what the valid bet sizes are in Limit Texas Hold'em in case of a players all-in. Consider the following example: 5/10 Limit Texas Hold'em game. Three players A, B and C. On the flop Player A bets 5, Player B goes all-in with 7. What are the valid amounts of chips that player C can put on the table? Is 7 a valid call? What about 10, 12, 15?
This question is not about how side pots work! It is about what happens to the bet size in Limit Hold'em in case a players all-in does not match the bet-size. It is NOT a duplicate of the question about side pots!

(pioglitazone hydrochloride and metformin hydrochloride) Tablets
- Thiazolidinediones, including pioglitazone, which is a component of ACTOPLUS MET, cause or exacerbate congestive heart failure in some patients (see WARNINGS, Pioglitazone hydrochloride). After initiation of ACTOPLUS MET, and after dose increases, observe patients carefully for signs and symptoms of heart failure (including excessive, rapid weight gain, dyspnea, and/or edema). If these signs and symptoms develop, the heart failure should be managed according to the current standards of care. Furthermore, discontinuation or dose reduction of ACTOPLUS MET must be considered.
- ACTOPLUS MET is not recommended in patients with symptomatic heart failure. Initiation of ACTOPLUS MET in patients with established NYHA Class III or IV heart failure is contraindicated (see CONTRAINDICATIONS and WARNINGS, Pioglitazone hydrochloride).
ACTOPLUS MET® (pioglitazone hydrochloride and metformin hydrochloride) tablets contain two oral antihyperglycemic drugs used in the management of type 2 diabetes: pioglitazone hydrochloride and metformin hydrochloride. The concomitant use of pioglitazone and metformin has been previously approved based on clinical trials in patients with type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled on metformin. Additional efficacy and safety information about pioglitazone and metformin monotherapies may be found in the prescribing information for each individual drug.
Pioglitazone hydrochloride is an oral antihyperglycemic agent that acts primarily by decreasing insulin resistance. Pioglitazone is used in the management of type 2 diabetes. Pharmacological studies indicate that pioglitazone improves sensitivity to insulin in muscle and adipose tissue and inhibits hepatic gluconeogenesis. Pioglitazone improves glycemic control while reducing circulating insulin levels.
Pioglitazone [(±)-5-[[4-[2-(5-ethyl-2-pyridinyl)ethoxy]phenyl]methyl]-2,4-] thiazolidinedione monohydrochloride belongs to a different chemical class and has a different pharmacological action than the sulfonylureas, biguanides, or the α-glucosidase inhibitors. The molecule contains one asymmetric center, and the synthetic compound is a racemate. The two enantiomers of pioglitazone interconvert in vivo. The structural formula is as shown:
Pioglitazone hydrochloride
Pioglitazone hydrochloride is an odorless white crystalline powder that has a molecular formula of C19H20N2O3S•HCl and a molecular weight of 392.90. It is soluble in N,N dimethylformamide, slightly soluble in anhydrous ethanol, very slightly soluble in acetone and acetonitrile, practically insoluble in water, and insoluble in ether.
Metformin hydrochloride (N,N -dimethylimidodicarbonimidic diamide hydrochloride) is not chemically or pharmacologically related to any other classes of oral antihyperglycemic agents. Metformin hydrochloride is a white crystalline powder with a molecular formula of C4H11N5•HCl and a molecular weight of 165.62. Metformin hydrochloride is freely soluble in water and is practically insoluble in acetone, ether, and chloroform. The pKa of metformin is 12.4. The pH of a 1% aqueous solution of metformin hydrochloride is 6.68. The structural formula is as shown:
Metformin hydrochloride
ACTOPLUS MET is available as a tablet for oral administration containing 15 mg pioglitazone hydrochloride (as the base) with 500 mg metformin hydrochloride (15 mg/500 mg) or 15 mg pioglitazone hydrochloride (as the base) with 850 mg metformin hydrochloride (15 mg/850 mg) formulated with the following excipients: povidone USP, microcrystalline cellulose NF, croscarmellose sodium NF, magnesium stearate NF, hypromellose 2910 USP, polyethylene glycol 8000 NF, titanium dioxide USP, and talc USP.
What are the possible side effects of metformin and pioglitazone (Actoplus Met, Actoplus Met XR)?
This medication may cause lactic acidosis (a build-up of lactic acid in the body, which can be fatal). Lactic acidosis can start slowly and get worse over time.

I've seen here, in the discussion after the answer by @sedden, that there exist two ways to substantivize a color (perhaps more adjectives).
Is there any difference in meaning (or any aspect) between the feminine color and the neutral one?
For instance "das Rote" and die "Röte". As one can see from Duden the latter is a completely conventional noun while the first one is obeys an adjectivischer Deklination and other features of an adjective remain in it.

This question was inspired by: How are photons "consumed"?
Imagine I have some number of photons, $N$, each of frequency $\nu$, moving randomly in a spherical "wrap-around" universe of volume $V$. To clarify what I mean by 'wrap-around', if a photon reaches a point on the surface of the sphere it is immediately mapped to the antipodal point with no changes to it's properties or velocity vector. The system is otherwise completely closed, and devoid of any other particles.
How might this system evolve over time?

Oh okay, I get it now. Good idea
Oh okay, I get it now. Good idea
Tbh I think 3 is too many, if someone is trying to ruin work made by people trying to help the community they don't deserve rights to edit it even after one warning.
My opinion, of course.
Can I ask again who has 'reserved' doing various country pages?
Oh yeah, we have lost links to them from the home page now as I changed the home page. I think rancer was written beside Canada but that was all. The rest were red links but without a name beside them.
One warning and then the second time ban them. We can't afford to have idiots deleting all of our hard work.
I'm on jod's side with this one. I think what this guy did wasn't so bad, plus it's easily reversible. One warning & then a ban would be too strict imo.
Also I was just reading on Wikipedia and we should not permanently block an ip address as they can sometimes be dynamic (which means they change) which means anyone (even one of us if we have a dynamic ip) could be blocked if they got assigned that ip address in the future and their ip could change which means they could still access it.
If they are on a mission to abuse it for a night or something though eventually we should block them but then unblock the ip address at a later time.
Fair enough Alan, but for repeated offences and bad first time deletions/useless edits, give them a level 2 warning at least. That way everyone will be happy
Fantastic work lads. I think we should give two warnings and a ban, myself. If they have two warnings it clearly shows that the user is in it for the laughs so we might as well ban his IP, then unban it after 3 days.
Down for me now.
Is it down for you Arsenal as well?
Just use the links that Jod and Peter provided on the previous page and it should work. It's working for me at the mo
Cheers guys. Just updated my bookmark.
Why is it down?
Ah, that's fine. I've missed today's action while I was at the Ricoh
Both urls seem fine to me...
I wrote up a bit of the Canadian team (I will write a lot more once later on, when I get bored of coursework ), and thinking of writing about the USMNT team too, if no one rejects...
I reject just to be awkward Go for it.
Not much has happened today. It's been one of the slowest development days since the start, mainly due to the all-guns firing start though.
Can we have a vote on the layout option?
Because I do dislike the new option.
I understand that we don't wan't a major list but at least could we have the links like 'Gameplay' and 'Technical' etc. in a list going down the page.
Woooo! No one better write on my pages.
EDIT: One more till 4000.

You may use the St Albans City official thread, arsenal_2111
Rancer, your Canada article is a bit biased so far...
That is the link. You need go to special pages and then to all pages.
You could probably have a direct link to it on the home page if you want that.
'Very strong on paper.'
I didn't mean we could beat up on the States and Mexico.
Oh, and our strikers are useless... (well Radzinski was good, but the key word is was...)
EDIT: on the youth team now
EDIT2: very strong on paper in the CONCACAF region, for more verification lol

I'll go ahead & write the FM06 page now. Who reserved the FM07 page & do they plan on actually doing it? It's been left blank for ages
It is like the unconstructive edits warning templates earlier for warning people after abusive/unconstructive edits like someone did earlier.
Oh, I see.
Then, why does it redirect from Dynamo Kyiv and not Dinamo Kiev.
Can we do individual player profiles?
Can someone make a redirect to the Major League Soccer page when you type in "MLS"? (if possible, I'm too lazy to type the whole name every time. On wiki, i just type "mls")
Oh, and rob, I'm already starting to think about making some individual wiki player pages, from the uncreated red link pages of de Guzman and DeRosario on the Canadian page.
I'll do it now rancer
I'll chip into this fine wiki with all the info i've got!
I apologise over the Dynamo (Kiev), (Kyiv), (Kyev) thing. I did not understand but now I understand over the redirects.
Could I have a redirect done for the Preston page, so that when you type in 'pne'.
I will do it myself if you tell me how to. Thanks
Just create a page with the title of the redirect, so in this case it is PNE.
Then on the page just put the following #REDIRECT [[pagename]]
pagename is obviously the name of the article you want to redirect to so in this case it is the Preston page.
Ok, thanks a lot.
I have edited the CM01/02 page, adding some info there but I have not finished.
This is what I have done: http://www.fmliveonline.com/fmwiki/i..._Manager_01/02
I added the player profile page on the banner.
Move it to look better if you want, as I was unsure of where to position it.
Just saw the new layout, very nice, looks proffesional. You guys have done good. I do think we should have an organised 'all articles' page.
I edited the CM01/02 page a bit. Removed the roken links for you.
I have done the FM07 page quickly. I will finish it off later on.
Rob, do you plan on putting an introduction in your CM01/02 page? I must say it looks a bit bare without it. If not, I could do it if you like
I've finished England, it's amazing how little there is to say about them actually! Might do a recommended formation bit
I thought that it would be only suitable if the first player profile would be of him:
The Biggest Flop due to the hype.
BTW, this article is not finished but is a start.
Just did a bit on the release of FM09
How come I can't add in the contents or the opening at all?
Is it because i am not an admin?
Do you think that we will ever have more people with sysops(admin) priviledges?
Plus, weren't there 4 people with admin priviledges before JJay helped us?
Lot of questions I know
CaptainPlanet has yet to register to the Wiki I believe so that is why he is not sysops; he would be made sysops if/when he signs up
In this page, Player Profiles why can I not add more players to the list?
It is really annoying me and hampering me doing stuff having all this stuff blocked, as I would like to add more player profiles.
Just type [[Category:Player Profiles]] at the end of every page you want put into that category.
Well, I just added Landon Donovan.
How are you guys going to approach these player profiles? Add a player screenshot, and include a coach report? Just wondering how to improve the presentation of these player profiles...
This new layout is getting on my nerves, I can't figure out how to edit stuff into it. For instance, on the player profile page, I press edit at the top of the page, post a link and it puts it in the description. Someone please help.
I'm on the verge of giving up, the new layout is absolutely terrible. Can't get anything in TBH. Plus it's harder to navigate.
I've finally figured it out. Cheers ahmufcwafc. Couldn't figure out what you meant, kept putting [[player name]][[Categorylayer profiles]] all as one.
Just finished my To Madeira profile
I will add a screenshot when I know how to insert images.
I understand the new layout now and it is ok once you get used to it.
The last couple of hours has made it a very productive day for the site and I would just like to say well done to everyone who has helped this evening.
Especially, to ahmufcwafc who has been extrememly helpful in working out the new layout.
And thanks to the maker of the wiki... oh yeah
Anyway, here's how you add a screenshot:
- Click 'upload file' on the left hand corner of the page.
- Upload it from wherever you have it saved.
- Go into the page that you want to put the image into, & at the top write [[Image: | *whatever side you want the image to be one (eg. left/right/centre )* | caption]]
I am making my first contribution to the site, and article on general training (eg. categories, star ratings etc.) I don't think anybody has done / started this but can somebody just confirm before I begin?
Sorry lads - the link www.footballmanagerwiki.co.uk has all sorted itself out and it was my fault that I hadn't removed part of the url from the wiki setup why it didn't appear.
It's up and working now so the domain in your hyperlink bar should be correct Makes it easier when creating and editing articles
What has happened to the site?
All its structure and layout has gone???
I was in the middle of an article and I just saved it and it messed up.
Anyone know what has happened?
Did anybody decide on what logo you were going to use from Neji's awesome contributions
Yeah - the temporary link that you were given no longer points straight at the wiki settings which is why the layout will disappear on there. Your coding on your page shouldn't be a problem if you load it up using the below link.
www.footballmanagerwiki.co.uk <--------------- That's the link now for the long-term. No more temp links

NYU prides itself in being a Global Network University - where the richness of a global education extends far beyond the classroom and into communities across the world. Whether you're studying in New York City or as far as Shanghai, NYU provides opportunities to engage in the global network through meaningful service. Global volunteerism provides an opportunity to learn about new cultures, explore rich history, and experience first-hand underlying causes of important social development needs within our communities.
NYU's global study abroad sites provide vast opportunities to engage in community service as part of the academic program or through co-curricular involvement. Participating in service opportunities while abroad is a great way to learn, explore the country, meet new people, and give back to your community. For more information about volunteer opportunities while studying abroad at NYU global sites, contact the NYU Office of Global Programs.
Community service is a very strong and exciting component of the study abroad experience in Ghana. Volunteers donate their time regularly to over a dozen meaningful service organizations. Past students have found this aspect of the program personally rewarding and a great opportunity to give something back to the society.
For students interested in a more formal, reflexive fieldwork experience, NYU has created a new credit-bearing seminar in social and cultural analysis. While engaged in fieldwork at a selected set of community organizations and NGOs, students participate in an academic seminar that helps make sense of the issues that arise in their community work, the structure and methods of the organizations where they work, and their own place in the process.
Your experience as a community volunteer will be a highly individualized opportunity that enhances your cultural immersion. NYU in Ghana staff will help you select the appropriate organization for your volunteer experience, drawing on their relationships with local community organizations. For example, you may find yourself working with the Elim Cluster of Schools, where teach elementary students. At the West Africa AIDS Foundation, you'll assist with patient visits, counseling, and fund-raising events. >> Read More.
To supplement in-class learning, NYU in Buenos Aires encourages students to conduct volunteer work in their areas of interest. Volunteering is a great way to connect to the local community and to put classroom theory into practice. Many students donate their time to nonprofits, hospitals, schools and other meaningful organizations. Most recently, students found opportunities with well-established NGOs specializing in public policy and the environment, including the Fundación Poder Ciudadano and Greenpeace. A politics major donated her time to Mujeres 2000, an organization formed by students and young professionals that helps impoverished women. Along with local Argentine students, she then visited shantytowns on the outskirts of the city to provide counseling services and micro credits (small grants) to women in need. Another student cared for cancer patients and their families at a medical facility near the NYU academic center, while others tutored high-risk children and teens at local schools. >> Read More.
NYU in Florence actively promotes volunteer opportunities in community service for its students. Working as instructors of English in Italian schools, or as assistants in a number of civic associations, NYU in Florence students get a chance to discover the "real" life of the city and its inhabitants. In addition, participating in the community service program offers an opportunity for students to make new contacts, and to improve their Italian language abilities. Some other service placements include cooking at a local church for their international youth dinners, giving free tours in English in the Florence Cathedral for a cultural organization, and helping to coach sports for an after-school program. Students who participate in Community Service find it one of the most rewarding features of their time in Florence. >> Read more.
NYU in London offers both ongoing and one-off Community Service opportunities. For students with a little more time, each semester we offer 30 placements in local schools for students who wish to work with teachers and help 5-7 year old children with their classes. We also have a limited number of semester-long placements at local volunteering organisations, including the American Church in London, Médecins Sans Frontières and Maggie's Centres.For those students with less time to commit, we also offer a programme of one-off events which enables students to volunteer for a day or just a few hours. These events can vary from semester to semester. Previous students have acted as stewards for the Metro Life Hike in conjunction with Open House weekend to raise money for Maggie's Centres; formed "cheering squads" for charities to support their runners during the London Marathon; helped out by feeding meals to the homeless at the local Soup Kitchen; and taken part in environmental projects such as local gardening initiatives, clearing a conservation area and removing litter from the River Thames. >> Read more.
If you'd like to put what you're learning in class into practice in the real world, NYU in Madrid offers opportunities for internships and community services. You may intern with Spanish firms, nongovernmental organizations, and private schools or volunteer with organizations that help the disadvantaged. Not only will you improve your Spanish, but you'll also learn about Hispanic culture from an insider's perspective. Please note that a high level of spoken Spanish is required for many of the immersion opportunities, although there are some options for intermediate speakers. In the U.S., volunteers are allowed certain independence with their schedules, whereas in Spain, volunteers are expected to make serious long-term commitments. >> Read More.
Volunteering in Shanghai will introduce you to another side of Chinese culture and bring you into direct contact with many facets of the city you may not otherwise experience. You could donate your time working with a local school's program to educate children of migrant workers, or perhaps spend a day a week teaching English in a local school, or lend a hand at a children's orphanage. New volunteer and service activities become available to NYU in Shanghai students on a regular basis. >> Read More.
NYU's International Alternative Breaks Program provides students studying in New York City the opportunity to participate in community service abroad during winter or spring break. Students engage with faculty to explore the theory of integrating service, education, and reflection to create meaningful change in communities around the world. For more information about the Alternative Breaks Program, please contact the Center for Student Activities, Leadership and Service.
Davis Projects for Peace is an initiative for all students at the Davis United World College Scholars Program partner schools (of which NYU is one) to design grassroots projects for the summer of 2016 - anywhere in the world - which promote peace and address the root causes of conflict among parties. Applicants are encouraged to use their creativity to design projects and employ innovative techniques for engaging project participants in ways that focus on conflict resolution, reconciliation, building understanding and breaking down barriers which cause conflict, and finding solutions for resolving conflict and maintaining peace. Through a competition on over 90 campuses, projects will be selected for funding at $10,000 each.

I've been taught since high school that defining variables like this:
int _a;
int __a;
should be consider bad practice because this would eventually puzzle compilers that use variables starting with an underscore to name temporary variables.
As far as I know this is the reason why some people like to move the underscore at the end of the name, like:
int a_;
However, I see a lot of code all around that makes use of underscore-starting variables. And that code builds fairly well with both Visual Studio 2010 and g++ 4.x.
So I wonder: is this a non-issue nowadays? Are modern compilers smarter about naming conventions?

Does the basis of an Euclidean space have to be ordered by definition? Or can be left unordered?
I was also wondering about what is the morphism (i.e. the mapping that can preserve all the structures) on Euclidean spaces? Is it Euclidean transformation (rigid transformation), consisting of rotation, translation and reflection? Or the reflection is not part of it, because the basis of a Euclidean space must be ordered.
Thanks and regards!

To the editor:
After the three presidential debates and the spin cycle in the presidential election are over and one is elected, how do the spinners reconcile their differences, or do they stay at odds and let the rest of the world know what fools they are, or should I say what fools the American people are for electing in their opinion a fool to be president?
Causing chaos is not a noble cause, and for those who advocate chaos and add to the discourse in America, they will pay the price of being disgraced in the end.
There's the mainstream media and the lame-brain media. From henceforth I decree talk radio and cable television the lame-brain media - with no exceptions for MSNBC, CNN, Fox News, Bill O'Reilly, Sean Hannity, Lawrence O'Donnell, Rachel Maddow and Wolf Blitzer.
Talk radio's Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck and Michael Savage all speak with forked tounges and cannot be trusted.
Men with twisted words and an audience can cause great harm in America.
Their day begins with opinion vs. facts. It's a death blow to America when these impersonators of journalism exploit buffoonism to make money at the expense of embarrassing America.
If we as a people let those of opinion with no facts influence our lives, or should I say run our lives, then we as a people deserve what we get.

"Incompatibility Hinders BRICS Bloc"
Op-Ed, Taipei Times
By Joseph S. Nye, Harvard University Distinguished Service Professor
"...[W]hile the BRICS may be helpful in coordinating certain diplomatic tactics, the term lumps together highly disparate countries. Not only is South Africa miniscule compared with the others, but China's economy is larger than those of all of the other members combined. Likewise, India, Brazil and South Africa are democracies, and occasionally meet in an alternative forum that they call IBSA (the India, Brazil, South Africa Dialogue Forum)."

"Our Pacific Predicament"
Magazine or Newspaper Article, American Interest, issue 4, volume 8
By Joseph S. Nye, Harvard University Distinguished Service Professor
"American interests rest on stability in the region to allow the continuing growth of trade and investment that benefits all countries. The U.S.-Japan alliance remains crucial to stability in East Asia, but so too are good relations in all three sides of the strategic triangle. One thing is clear: If, despite all we do, Sino-Japanese relations deteriorate toward literal conflict, the United States will be faced with some very tough choices."

"History Will Judge Bush on Iraq War"
Op-Ed, China Daily
By Joseph S. Nye, Harvard University Distinguished Service Professor
"Truman biographer David McCullough warns that about 50 years must pass before historians can really appraise a presidency. But one decade after Truman left office, the Marshall Plan and the NATO alliance were already seen as solid accomplishments. Bush lacks comparable successes to compensate for his mismanagement of Iraq."

"A New Great Power Relationship"
Op-Ed, China Daily
By Joseph S. Nye, Harvard University Distinguished Service Professor
"...[T]he United States has accepted the rise of Chinese power and invited Chinese participation as a responsible stakeholder in the international system. Power is not always a zero sum game. Given the global problems that both China and the United States will face, they have much more to gain from working together than in allowing overwrought fears to drive them apart, but it will take wise policy on both sides to assure this future."

"The Information Revolution Gets Political"
Op-Ed, The Australian
By Joseph S. Nye, Harvard University Distinguished Service Professor
"Beneath the Arab political revolutions lies a deeper and longer process of radical change that is sometimes called the information revolution. We cannot yet fully grasp its implications, but it is fundamentally transforming the nature of power in the twenty-first century, in which all states exist in an environment that even the most powerful authorities cannot control as they did in the past."

"Work With China, Don't Contain It"
Op-Ed, The New York Times
By Joseph S. Nye, Harvard University Distinguished Service Professor
"But America's rebalancing toward Asia should not be aggressive. We should heed Mr. Kennan's warning against overmilitarization and ensure that China doesn't feel encircled or endangered. The world's two largest economies have much to gain from cooperation on fighting climate change, pandemics, cyberterrorism and nuclear proliferation."

"The Second Term: Joseph Nye on U.S.-Chinese Relations"
By Doug Gavel and Joseph S. Nye, Harvard University Distinguished Service Professor
"The task for the Obama Administration over the next four years will be to implement a balanced policy that both balances and integrates China. It must shape the environment to deter aggressive actions while holding open the opportunity for cooperation with joint gains."
January 10, 2013
"The World in 2030"
Op-Ed, Social Europe Journal
By Joseph S. Nye, Harvard University Distinguished Service Professor
"The question of America's role in helping to produce a more benign world in 2030 has important implications for President Barack Obama as he approaches his second term. The world faces a new set of transnational challenges, including climate change, transnational terrorism, cyber insecurity, and pandemics. All of these issues require cooperation to resolve."

"Immigration and American Power"
Op-Ed, The Korea Times
By Joseph S. Nye, Harvard University Distinguished Service Professor
"While too rapid a rate of immigration can cause social problems, over the long term, immigration strengthens U.S. power. It is estimated that at least 83 countries and territories currently have fertility rates that are below the level needed to keep their population constant. Whereas most developed countries will experience a shortage of people as the century progresses, America is one of the few that may avoid demographic decline and maintain its share of world population."

"Seoul, Tokyo Should Look to the Future"
Op-Ed, The Korea Herald
By Sang-ho Song and Joseph S. Nye, Harvard University Distinguished Service Professor
In addition to the festering territorial row over Korea's easternmost islets of Dokdo, historical issues such as Japan's wartime sexual enslavement have overshadowed the prospect of the two countries' cooperation on security and other issues. Diplomatic tension is expected to escalate further as security hawk Shinzo Abe of the Liberal Democratic Party is likely to return to Japan's premiership following the parliamentary elections slated for Dec. 16.

The wikipedia article claims that the theorem "was first proved by G. C. Shephard and J. A. Todd (1954) who gave a case-by-case proof. Claude Chevalley (1955) soon afterwards gave a uniform proof". I read the paper by Chevalley and it seems that he only proves the implication: "If the group is generated by pseudo-reflections, then the ring of invariants is polynomial". I wonder whether there is a uniform proof of the inverse implication? Where is it written?
There are indeed many presentations (if I remember correctly Bourbaki has it) but the proof is very elegant and short so that I find it hard to refrain from giving it. Let $H$ be the normal subgroup of the finite $G\subset \mathrm{GL}_n$ generated by the pseudo-reflections. By the other direction $X:=\mathbb{A}^n/H$ is again affine space and in particular is smooth. We have an action of $G/H$ on $X$ and a moment's thought reveals that it acts freely in codimension $1$ (as a point fixed by a non-identity element would lie below a reflection hyperplane of $\mathbb{A}^n$ and the fixing element below a pseudo-reflection). Hence $X \to X/(G/H)=\mathbb{A}^n/G$ is étale in codimension $1$. If $\mathbb{A}^n/G$ were smooth, purity of the branch locus would imply that the map were étale. However, that forces $G/H$ to act freely on $X$ but the image of the origin is fixed by all of $G/H$ and therefore $G=H$.
Chevalley was interested in the action of (real) Weyl groups and so a reflection to him had determinant -1 and so was a real reflection, i.e. order 2. My understanding is that Serre had seen the paper by Shepard and Todd and so he knew that pseudo-reflections were relevant. He pointed out that Chevalley's proof was valid for pseudo-reflections.

A recent wildlife survey in the Laikipia District of central Kenya in February 2001 provided an opportunity to test a Zebra Simulation Model developed by The Mpala Research Centre. This predictive model can estimate the total number of zebras present in a given area. The prediction for this year, according to the model, was 23,726. Compared to the actual number of zebras found through traditional survey techniques in February was 26,095. This is a difference of 9% and represents an accurate substitute for more costly sampling methods.

Reviews for Habanero Apricot Jam
"I used 8 jalapeno peppers and nectarines and peaches instead of apricots. It is a great recipe, and the peppers are not to be feared.It is worth a try, even if you don't like the kick of peppers!"
"Don't let the Habanero scare you--I used 3 and there is a nice balance between the apricot and the heat. It is very subtle. My husband and daughter like it on toast with cream cheese."
"why is so much sugar needed? aren't the apricots very sweet to start with?"
"Excellent, easy recipe. I had a batch of frozen apricots and some I heat packed last year so I mixed them to make up the quantity needed. I had about six habaneros also frozen (freezing tames them but don't be fooled, they are still fierce). I chopped the habaneros and added half to the recipe. It was a bit strong but when I added all the sugar it was a bit too mild so I added the rest of the chopped habaneros. Turned out perfect. The step of blending the habaneros with a bit of apricot can be adjusted. Chop the habaneros separately and add them in portions until you get the heat you prefer."
"Couldn't decide to use two peppers afraid it would be mild and not four because it would be too hot so settled for three and it was just perfect! This jam rocks, I've been canning for over twenty years now and was looking for something alittle different... Prep was pretty easy using the food processor on pulse to give me a nice texture and the blender to make combine the habaneros with the apricot mixture. The flavor is incredible and it makes eleven half pints so it's nice for gift giving."
"I love the sweet and spicy taste of this jam! I will definately make whenever my tree is overloaded with apricots!"
