I have just started to use Pomodoro today and I am trying to work out what I should and should not do during my 25 minute work time.
For my 25 minute work stint I started to write some code and realised that I had done something similar in a related project so I opened that solution to copy and paste that existing code. Question is, is this allowed?
Also, if during my 25 minutes I realise that there is an important work-related email that I need to send can I do that or should I wait for the next 25 minutes or the break ?
I am writing this question during my, now extended, 5 minute break. Is this work or is it a break?
I really will appreciate some guidance as I want to use Pomodoro to focus better on my work.
Another thing that happened to me was that a Adobe AIR update alert came up on my desktop during the 25 minutes. Should I ignore such things until the break?

Did any writing systems, or even failed attempts at them, exist for Japanese before kanji was imported from China?

Does history belong on this site? Anyway, I just flickered through my history book and came up with this.
First off, from Wikipedia and common sense: Hanzi is said to have come into existence around 2650 BC. "Common people" didn't just go write things for fun "back in the day", that was something for the wealthy. (emperors and such)
Now, though legend says the first emperor of Japan lived around 600 BCE, the first recognized by text is princess/queen/empress(?) Himiko, written in the Chinese text Weizhi around 297 CE. The first text to recognize Japan at all is a Chinese text (Hanshu) written around 87 CE.
A prince Shootoku is said to have written the first Japanese "constitution" at 604 CE. An image of Chinese text is given, though it's not saying not much about it.. Around this time is also when Japan started to record its own history in text. Nothing is mentioned about what writing system they had, but Japan was influenced a lot by China and Korea. The constitution itself was merely some Buddhist guidelines, meaning Chinese text was reasonably imported along with Buddhism.
The first Japanese collection of poems, Kaifuusoo, was given out at 751 CE. Here it says it was written in Japanese, though with Chinese characters because they didn't have their own writing system yet. Some characters were used for their meanings, others because their readings resembled the Japanese words.
..not exactly conclusive evidence, but it's something, and too long to be left as a comment, so here we go. I guess they could still have had some primitive cave-like drawings, but I don't know if that's technically classified as text by linguists and such.
There are some dubious claims collectively called 神代文字. The dominant view in academia is that these are fake.

NEW YORK -- As the college football awards scene shifts from Orlando to New York, Johnny Manziel continues to be the Heisman candidate creating the most buzz.
A pair of SEC defensive backs who saw what Manziel can do on the field say there's no doubt who they feel should bring home the Heisman.
Thorpe Award finalist Dee Milliner from Alabama, who was the victim of Manziel's fourth quarter touchdown pass to Malcome Kennedy to help the Aggies beat the Crimson Tide, said, "If I had a vote for the Heisman, he'd get mine. No matter what you're a freshman or a senior, whatever you are. To do the things that he did this year in college football is unheard of and that's just a great player all-around."
Mississippi State's Johnthan Banks also had great things to say about the quarterback who torched his Bulldogs. "Johnny's a great football player. I don't think he's just a quarterback, he's a real football player. He's like a wide out playing quarterback. He's explosive, he's quick, he's agile, and when he gets in the open field he can make you miss. If you come up to tackle him he'll throw it right over your head and throw a touchdown. I've got a lot of respect for the kid and I wish him well."
The Heisman has a shot at staying in the Brazos Valley for a second straight season. Baylor wide receiver Terrance Williams played with 2011 winner Robert Griffin III, and believes the 2012 trophy should stay in Texas.
"I'm pretty glad we didnt' play him. He's a tremendous football player. I saw a couple of his games and that's just somebody who can make a play last as long as ten seconds. To have somebody like that is a receiver's dream and a defense's nightmare. He's a very good football player and his chances are very high to win the Heisman on Saturday night."
Not everybody thinks the Heisman is Manziel's to lose. ESPN anaylst and former Georgia Bulldog David Pollack isn't 100 percent sold on Johnny Football being the best player in the nation. "It's not as clear cut as everybody wants to think."
Pollack also played the "system quarterback" card. "One thing you've got to look at with Sumlin's system is every quarterback plays well. I knew nothing about Johnny Manziel coming into this season. I'd have told you that he'd have thrown for a gazillion yards. Case Keenum threw for 5,800 yards in this offense a year ago. He's an offensive great coach. He knows how to draw up football plays."
Opinions aside the Heisman voters are the ones who have the final say.

callParent() breaks Firefox when using js strict mode

We don't support JavaScript strict mode via "use strict" (not to be confused with HTML strict mode)Sencha Touch Lead Architect
30 Aug 2011 5:13 AM #4
Do you plan to support "use strict"; in future releases of ExtJS or is it impossible to combine this with the Class Hierarchy approach that is used in ExtJS?
30 Aug 2011 5:22 AM #5
Is this a design decision? Have other extension mechanisms not using parent (caller, callee) been considered?
EcmaScript strict mode is a very good help for avoiding common pitfalls. It's also a security measure in production and using it allows for further optimization in JavaScript engines.

+1 for "strict mode" compatibility in future Versions (faster execution time).
10 Feb 2012 1:50 AM #7

Ditto in favor of strict mode
It's a fact of life, and being incompatible with it is tying the hands of the application developers.
18 Apr 2012 11:55 PM #9
I've been working round it by putting all the init code in a separate function which I can use strict mode with. E.g.
initComponent: function () { this.strictInitComponent(); this.callParent(arguments); }, strictInitComponent: function () { "use strict"; // setup code goes here }

| Ben DuBose, Hydrocarbon Processing,
Italian energy major eni believes technology innovation can serve as the breakthrough for the future of the EU refining system, enabling a shift in the current technology curve, according to vice president Giacomo Rispoli.
By Ben DuBose
Online Editor
MILAN, Italy -- The European refining industry needs a technology breakthrough to face new
challenges such as rising demand and production in nearby
regions such as Asia and the Middle East, an executive with
Italian energy major eni
said on Wednesday.
Speaking at the IRPC 2012 conference, Giacomo Rispoli -
executive vice president of research and development (R&D)
and projects for eni
Refining & Marketing - said Europe "must be reindustrialized in
a different way" to survive non-EU competition.
"Refining is considered a
technologically mature sector," said Rispoli. "The last
significant development was in the 1960s with modern
hydrocracking. The industry desperately needs a technology breakthrough."
Rispoli noted that a rationalization process has been underway
in Europe since 2009, with nine
refineries closed (about 1 million bpd of combined capacity)
and another 11 still at risk.
In eni's own practice, the
company's refinery in Venice, Italy, was
shut for six months during 2011, he said.
However, Rispoli cited his company's EST (eni slurry technology) project as an
example of a possible new refinery paradigm.
In his view, EST can evolve from one plant at present to
an entirely new refinery scheme. In that fresh,
simplified scheme, the EST capability would allow the company
to produce fuel gas, LPG, naphtha and gasoil, he says, taking
crude oil from a distillation unit and natural gas
from a hydrogen plant.
"It reduces feedstock costs, traditional
investment and energy consumption, while increasing yields of
light products," Rispoli said.r
EU refiners must continue to make such innovations to stay
ahead of the curve, Rispoli said. Otherwise, the majority of
investments will be made in locations such as Asia and the
Middle East with a greater proximity to demand.
IRPC 2012 runs through Thursday. For more details, visit
the HPInformer blog or the event

Antonio D'Alessio
I totally agree with the point of view of mr. Rispoli.I think that the EST technology must be introduce more and more in refining, and continuosly improved with experience. For the economical impact on operations, it should be in condition to make european Refineries competitive with Asian Refineries.Antonio D'Alessio4D Engineering.

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.

So I've gotten to the point in my program where I need to create a group for some sprites that the player can collide with without dying (like some other sprites I may have on screen).
I've scoured Google but it appears that the official pygame documentation is useless and/or hard to comprehend. I'm looking for just a wee bit of help from anyone who knows a bit about this.
First, I need to find out how to create a group. Does it go in the initial game setup?
Then adding a sprite to a group upon its creation. The pygame site has this to say on the subject:
So... how does one use this? Let's say I have an sprite named gem. I need to add gem to the gems group. Is it:
gem = Sprite.add(gems)
I doubt it, but without any examples to go off of on the site, I am at a loss.
Furthermore, I would love to be able to edit attributes for a certain group. Is this done by defining a group like I would a class? Or is it something I define within the definition for the existing sprite, but with an 'if sprite in group'?
I would really appreciate any help... I really like Python so far, but this is giving me a serious headache... bah.

WACO (December 21, 2012)-Firefighters were busy overnight fighting two separate blazes that broke out only a short time apart and just a few blocks from each other.
Units were sent just before 1:20 a.m. Friday to a house at 1823 North 6th Street in Waco where a caller had reported smoke coming from a vacant house.
Firefighters were able to control the blaze quickly but not before fire, smoke and water did significant damage to the inside of the home, Waco fire Capt. Shon Cavett said.
There was no one injured, Cavett said, and it was not clear if the utilities at the house were turned on.
Cavett said firefighters left the scene just after 5 a.m.
Then at about 2:20 a.m., Waco fire crews were sent to a house near Proctor Avenue at 2023 North 5th Street, only about three blocks away, where another house was reported to be on fire.
When units arrived at the N. 5th Street address they reported the house fully engulfed.
Within a short time the roof caved in and flames spread throughout the single-story structure.
Cavett said later in the morning the vacant house was a total loss but no one was injured in the blaze.
Firefighters remained on the scene of the second fire for more than four hours.
Fire marshals were at both scenes Friday morning trying to determine a cause for both blazes.

I have a pair of skis, let's pretend I use them as much as I want to. How often should I wax them? Once a season? Every few ski days? Before or after every ski day? Both? Does it matter what kind of snow it is? If so, how does that factor in?
Ski wax, like many subtle aspects of sports, is subject to a lot of lore. While there is strong science behind wax, the details of how it affects your daily ski trip is hard to pin down.
That said, there are several situations that cause me to re-wax my skis (and we are talking about PTEX based alpine-style skis here, with a melted-in base wax, rather than hand-applied glide waxes used on cross-country or nordic skis):
The biggest factor for the waxing is to make sure you have the right wax on your skis for the temperature outside. That is what you should look for when choosing a wax. If you use the wrong temperature wax it will slow you down.
As a rule of thumb you should wax every time you can feel grooves in the base of your ski. It smooths out the base of your skis giving you a faster ski.
If you are a powder skier, you will quite likely manage an entire two week ski holiday on one waxing (assuming the temperature stays pretty consistent)
If you like something a bit more extreme, perhaps with some hard ice, rocks or other solid objects then you may want to wax them each morning.
@JLundberg's rule of thumb is pretty applicable for both these use cases and everything in between.
When you should wax your skis:

Sheriff: Gilroy residents abducted teen with plans to sell her
Two Gilroy residents and two San Jose residents were arrested in Moreno Valley for allegedly abducting an 18-year-old woman and sexually assaulting her, with plans to force her into prostitution.
They were booked on suspicions of human trafficking, abduction for prostitution, false imprisonment, kidnapping for sexual assault, as well as attempted pimping and pandering.
Suspects were identified by the Riverside County Sheriff's Department as:
- Khalid Binhajjyahyaabdulmalik, 23, of Gilroy
- Abubakr Horrington, 32, of Gilroy
- Ibrahim Binhajjyahyaabdulmalik, 25, of San Jose
- Ana Ceja, 20, of San Jose
Police responded to reports of a disturbance at a Moreno Valley hotel Friday and found an 18-year-old woman who said she'd been kidnapped Thursday in Compton by four men and a woman armed with a semi-automatic handgun. Officers stopped the suspects as they tried to flee.

BYU women's basketball: Keilani Unga works her way back for senior season after life-changing event
Jeffrey D. Allred, Deseret News
PROVO — The way the nurse said it was simple and small.
"You're pregnant."
But the words wrapped around her, suffocating and life-altering. She was, after all, in the midst of living her dream of playing college basketball at a school that requires its students to abide by very specific ethical and moral rules. On the list of issues that can mean punishment ranging from probation to expulsion is intimacy outside of marriage.
The words shattered any facade she was maintaining.
"I got light-headed, everything just stopped," said then 20-year-old Keilani Moeaki. "I just started crying. I was totally shocked. I was wearing my BYU stuff, and she asked me, 'Do you play sports?' "
Humiliated and terrified, Moeaki acknowledged she was a starter for BYU's basketball team. The rest of the appointment was a blur. Questions pummeled her as she made her way out of the office and back to her apartment.
"What am I going to do? Who am I going to tell?" she said. "I was stumbling through it."
When she arrived home, she immediately called her boyfriend, who was also an athlete — BYU's all-time leading rusher, Harvey Unga.
She sobbed as she told him.
"He wasn't sad at all," she said, shaking her head a little. "He was really excited. He gave me a big hug, and somehow that comforted me."
Unga suggested they call their bishop first. Moeaki agreed.
It would be another month before they would muster the courage to tell their coaches, their teammates and their parents. They would endure the searing heat of the spotlight, the devastation of being forced to withdraw from school, and the loneliness of living thousands of miles away from each other as they tried to pick up the pieces of their shattered dreams.
Keilani Unga wasn't sure she wanted to follow two of her brothers to BYU. It was so far away from her Warrenville, Ill., home, and the thought of having her parents at every game was appealing. She committed to Marquette, but she agreed to visit BYU's campus because the teenager relished the idea of a trip.
"I loved it," she said, her smile warm and friendly. "I met the team; we went to a football game, and it was just more my style, more laid back. When we got on the plane, I told my mom, 'I think I want to come here.' She was happy."
Her father, Sione, was a health teacher and tennis coach so all five of the Moeaki children learned to play tennis.
"I didn't start basketball until the fourth grade," she said. "I decided to do it because all of my friends were doing it. When I tried out for the team in sixth grade, I didn't know how to do a layup."
Athletic and hard working, she quickly showed such promise that a traveling team coach added her to his roster, and basketball became her passion. She started getting letters from colleges when she was a sophomore — one of those interested was BYU.
"She was really talented," said BYU coach Jeff Judkins. "She had a lot of ability that we needed. She could get to the basket, and she was a really aggressive, smart player. She was probably the most highly sought-after recruit of that class."
Like many Mormon young people, even if she didn't aspire to go to BYU, she loved the school owned by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Her parents were graduates, and when two of her brothers became Cougars, those ties to the school grew stronger.
It was not love at first sight — at least for Keilani.

All Warren County Departments are being forced to each take a ten percent budget cut this year.
This includes cuts for Emergency departments, which could affect you in an emergency situation.
"Our first priority just like any government is the protection of the citizens and continued budget cuts is not going to allow that to happen. And I don't want to knock on the door of a family and tell them bad news just because of some budgets cuts," says Ronnie Pearson, director of Emergency Management.
In December, the Warren County Government voted against increasing the insurance premium tax.
The failed insurance tax increase and a decrease in property taxes is a devastating blow to public safety.
"We voted to not increase the revenue at the time. So, that was making it difficult to provide the ongoing services for emergency services for public protection," says County Judge Executive, Mike Buchanon.
"We're trying to come up with creative ways short-term to cover that deficit," County Magistrate, Dan Rudloff says.
While Warren County may have a balanced budget, the cuts could cause problems during severe weather.
Emergency Management may not be able to build additional tornado sirens this year, including new siren locations planned last year.
"Last week was a prime example of when these storms pop up and can do a multitude of damage fortunately we had no injuries but it's very possible," Pearson says.
The Warren County Fire Department needs 7 more stations to cover the county.
"Anyone who is beyond five miles from a responding fire station is subject to a class 10 rating which is basically no fire service," says Woodburn Fire Chief Bob Skipper.
And the Sheriff's Office was forced to get rid of a deputy position, slowing response time.
"When we had the slick streets, one deputy is gone, we had like 20 to 23 wrecks. He would probably work four of those wrecks, so it takes them longer," Warren County Sheriff Jerry "Peanuts" Gaines says.
Emergency officials agree, these budget cuts may endanger public safety.
The Sheriff's Office is the only emergency department whose proposed budget cuts have been finalized.
Emergency Management will present their budget cuts tomorrow in Warren County Fiscal Court.

What do you think about sites that require contact information before you see the product page?
There are a few sites out there (which get deals posted here) that require you to enter an email address, or sign up with your facebook account, before you even view the product page. That means you can't even click on the "I want one" button to find out more about the product without divulging personal info (and likely getting spammed).
18 Answers answer
I refuse to participate.
One of the posters likes to claim "x million hits" on his sites. Hitting the sites and buying from them is totally different.
There is only one of these I deal with regularly and it irritates the cr*p out of me. It won't even let you see what the deal of the day IS until you log in, and even then it gives no option for remembering your login or password so you have to enter everything every time. Now that I think of it, I don't like their stuff enough to keep dealing with it. Time to take it off of my watch list!
Not a fan but I get the logic. They only want anyone who is (semi) serious instead of the looky-loos burning up bandwidth. Yes, it may cost them a potential sale but they're willing to take that risk. Plus it gets them contact and at least 1 outbound email before the customer opts out.
It's akin to having to show your ID before you can even enter a store. Would you?
If I'm aware of what they have to offer, perhaps; warehouse store members, for example, fall into this category (but even then it's just the greeter making a glance that you're a member, not ask for you contact information). Otherwise, it's a horrible business idea, especially online, as other stores that don't ask for such are but a mere click away.
When these deals come up, I tend to down vote vote them and I rarely down vote deals. It's kind of like back
It drives me insane. I also refuse to participate. Occasionally I will see something that I am interested in, but if I have to create an account just to find out if I really want it, forget it. Sometimes even if I get all the way to the checkout with regular vendor that I only expect to have this one transaction with and have to create an account (with more info than needed for checking out) I might reconsider the purchase. Sometimes I upvote deals like that before I notice where they are for.
@narfcake: good point about warehouse stores. Interestingly BJs wholesale and Costco allow anyone to look at their website, not sure about others. So even exclusive B&M stores aren't exclusive with the browsing online...and BJs will let you in the store without checking your membership card, you only need it at the checkout. I wonder if allowing everyone to browse online drives more people to become members?
This has been noted before. As I've said before, I don't much like it. I seldom pay attention any more to the deals side, and don't often downvote deals anyway (although I have made exceptions for the truly deserving).
Personally, I'm NEVER going to give my money to any place that wants my information just to look at whatever it is they're selling. I can get it somewhere else. There are costs beyond just the financial when considering a purchase, and having someone insist on my giving them something before I can go look is just not my idea of beneficial (for me). I know there are people who are fans of them (sooner or later, if there are sudden downvotes on all the comments here, you'll know that one of them has found us, since he often does just that).
Even Costco will let you wander around for a day as a guest.
A related discussion, with some helpful information:
I think they are marketing scam artist.
I occasionally use them but in general don't like them.
I have numerous junk email accounts that I use for these types of sites (and other things that I don't want to give my real contact info to). I periodically purge all of the email sent to these addresses without looking at it. For those (few) sites whose email I do wish to see, the junk accounts have filters that forward those emails to another address that I do read.
Back button.
Next ad, please.
Just like the Nigerian scams, there are enough people falling for it to pay for it.
I don't like it when sites do that either. I'm glad woot doesn't. I don't mind the pop-up reminding me that I'm not currently signed in (it's gotten me a boc that I would've prolly missed otherwise), but like that I can "x" past it if I don't feel like signing in a that time.
Not a fan of them at all. My time is valuable to me, as is my privacy. I don't give up either one easily.
I don't down vote often, but this is one category I sometimes will. I do make an exception for posts that include enough info for me to peek at the item, or find an accurate description elsewhere. For instance, @lll0228: does this, they include a model number, a good description, and whenever possible, a covert link to the item. I think they go the extra mile, so I will not down vote them.
I do think these sites often have sponsored ads, and they probably get paid based on the number of registered users, and this is purely speculative on my part, but probably at a better rate than just hits on a regular site. But I agree it is a poor business model, as it is too much of a bother to deal with, and I can find plenty of other places to shop on the interwebs.
I absolutely refuse to deal with sites like that. I guess they make more money off of the data they collect and sell then anything else.
What's next? Are they going to pull your credit report before they let you buy anything?
Just like facebook apps that want my contact info, I stop when they ask and I click away from the page.
It doesn't bother me a bit. I log in on all kinds of sites I participate in on the interwebz. I also use hidemyass or the Chrome incognito add on. Like many people, I have what I call my "serious" email, and one I use as my junk mail email. There's also bugmenot that you can share logins for websites that force you to register. It's not a big deal nor a deal breaker.
I come to deals.woot to get deals. Sometimes I have to work a little more to get the price I want. It's all part of the game.
It's not just a few sites. More and more are moving that direction. Even sites that let you browse freely may have flash or side deals that you can see only by logging in. Yugster is one, for example.
It's the new marketing thing. It gives them a potential email list unless you remember to opt out of it.
I'm not a big fan of it but it's a trend that is going to be hard to avoid, I'm afraid. As long as I feel comfortable that it's a reputable site, I'm ok with it. I do my research first:
The one thing that I would ask the community is that on these deals, please comment on the deal or the store, not the poster. We've had some community members recently that have targeted the poster of the deal which really isn't fair. The deal maybe be a good deal even if you happen not to like the store.
End of PSA. Thank you for your time.

Two men indicted for armed robbery have been released to home incarceration at their homes in Tennessee. Larry Parrish of Antioch, TN and Samuel Taylor of Lavergne, TN were arrested on June 2 after police say they held a gun to an employee's head at the Franklin South Central Bank location, and stole $195,000. According to police and the FBI, the men then ditched their original getaway car in rural Simpson County and set it on fire.
Law enforcement engaged the men in a high-speed pursuit, finally cornering them in downtown Adairville, where police found a gun and ski mask, along with the money in their car.
Bank officials and employees are outraged by Judge Robert Gobel's decision, and say they believe such a crime should merit detention until a trial. The two men will remain at home until their trial.
Judge Gobel's office refused comment on the case and his decision.

Women and life insurance
What if your life insurance company kicks the bucket before you do?
The odds of that occurring are historically very slim, and the chances of a policyholder "losing it all" in such a scenario even slimmer, given the numerous and robust regulatory backstops to insurer insolvency.
"It's very, very rare for a life insurer to become insolvent," says Michael Barry, spokesman for the Insurance Information Institute, an industry trade group. "Life insurers are among the best capitalized insurance companies out there."
Indeed, just 80 multistate life and health insurers and 326 single-state or regional insurers have failed over the past four decades. Life insurers performed particularly well during the recent recession, with just eight insolvencies between 2008 and 2012. Not only did those companies' combined liability of $900 million pale in comparison to the $639 billion Lehman Brothers bankruptcy, but also most policyholders recovered all or nearly all benefits under contract.
That said, understanding the safeguards against life insurer insolvencies and the steps you can take before and after purchase to protect your policy could help you avoid accidentally endangering your investment.
Under the federal bankruptcy code, failing insurance companies cannot declare bankruptcy. Instead, they enter into a three-tiered, highly structured resolution program run by their home state's guaranty association, or GA. This office, which operates within each state's insurance department, serves as an insolvency "safety net" for life, annuity and health insurance consumers. (Separate GAs also protect homeowners insurance and auto insurance customers.)
Because state insurance laws vary and life and health insurers often operate in multiple states, the National Organization of Life and Health Insurance Guaranty Associations, or NOLHGA, was created in 1983 to coordinate insurance failures that cross state lines.
Insurers pay into guaranty funds that protect consumers against insolvency in much the same way the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. has your back in a bank failure. Under models established by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, individual life policies are guaranteed to $300,000 (cash values to $100,000) and annuities to $250,000, although state amounts may vary.
And, because life benefits are not payable upon demand in the same way as bank deposits, policyholders need not worry about a run on their troubled insurance company.
"One of the best friends of a resolution plan is using the value of time to achieve an orderly disposition of the assets of the company, as opposed to a fire sale," says Peter Gallanis, president of NOLHGA. "The liabilities come due over a long period of time. Because life insurance companies tend to invest conservatively to honor those liabilities, their holdings tend to be long-term and conservative."
When an insurer runs into financial trouble, it faces three possible levels of receivership by the state.
Even in the rare case of liquidation, Gallanis says the financial loss to policyholders is usually minimal. "Going back to the Great Depression, folks have realized in excess of 96 cents on the dollar on their life contract claims and 94 cents on annuity claims," he says.
Rule No. 1 if your insurer enters receivership is: Don't freak out. Barry says you stand a far greater chance of damaging or even terminating your own policy if you overreact to a notice of receivership and cease to pay your premiums.
"If you stop premium payments, it's very hard because then have to get your agent back involved to reach into the company to get you back on track. And if you have a whole life policy, now you're impacting the cash value," he says.
Barry also cautions against the urge to cash out a whole life policy. "You may get a quick $6,000 to $10,000 by surrendering it, but you may be giving up a $50,000 or $100,000 benefit to your beneficiaries," he says. "Plus, you may not be able to afford or qualify for another policy."
Richard O'Boyle Jr., an independent life insurance agent and senior account associate with New York City-based Schaefer Enterprises Inc., says your agent can be a valuable ally should you need cash from an insurer in receivership.
"An agent can help draft a letter to the company requesting a 'hardship disbursement,'" he says. "A lot of times, the client doesn't even have the policy number anymore or know whether it was policy version A or B. The agent also knows the keywords to drop in there to make sure you'll be heard."
To minimize your exposure to insolvency before you insure, O'Boyle suggests these tips.

World Elder Abuse Awareness Day (WEAAD) was launched on June 15, 2006 by the International Network for the Prevention of Elder Abuse and the World Health Organization at the United Nations. The purpose of WEAAD is to provide an opportunity for communities around the world to promote a better understanding of abuse and neglect of older persons by raising awareness of the cultural, social, economic and demographic processes affecting elder abuse and neglect. In addition, WEAAD is in support of the United Nations International Plan of Action acknowledging the significance of elder abuse as a public health and human rights issue. WEAAD serves as a call-to-action for individuals, organizations, and communities to raise awareness about elder abuse, neglect, and exploitation. (AOA)

Seventh International Congress on Targeted Therapies in Cancer
Physicians' Education Resource
Last Modified: June 1, 2008
Conference Dates: August 22-24, 2008
Conference Location: Washington, DC
Sponsoring Group: Physicians' Education Resource
Conference Web Page URL: http://www.cancerconferences.com/other_solid_tumors/7th_targeted_therapies_2032/index.php
Topics Covered: The Seventh International Congress on Targeted Therapies in Cancer has been designed to provide participants with cutting-edge information on the novel targeted anticancer therapies that are being developed, highlighting the mechanisms of action of and the most current clinical data on those agents. The congress will detail the multiple signaling pathways that are disrupted in cancer as well as novel targeted approaches that specifically affect aberrant signaling in tumor cells, such as PI3K, Akt, and Src inhibitors; agents directed against receptor tyrosine kinases such as insulin-like growth factor receptor and c-Met receptor; agents targeting angiopoietin and the tumor stroma; heat shock protein inhibitors; agents disrupting the cell cycle, cell division, and DNA repair processes; agents targeting molecules involved in developmental pathways; and agents that harness the body's own immune system to combat neoplastic disease. The congress will also cover novel therapeutic and drug discovery platforms and will explore efforts to finetune monoclonal antibody effectiveness through combinatorial approaches. Furthermore, the impact on future therapeutic strategies of customizing cancer treatment based on the molecular properties of the tumor will be debated. As the burgeoning field of targeted therapies continues to evolve, there is a clear need for physicians to be continuously updated on the most recent efficacy and safety data on these new classes of agents. This congress will use didactic learning and panel discussions to provide an educational program that allows physicians to keep abreast of these rapid developments.
Summarize the key issues in biologic target identification and validation and the efficient development of novel anticancer therapeutics Define the rationale for and evaluate clinical data on agents targeting growth factor receptors such as insulin-like growth factor receptor and c-Met receptor Describe signaling through intracellular pathways and assess the feasibility of heat shock protein inhibitors, PI3K inhibitors, and Akt/Src inhibitors as anticancer agents Review immunotherapeutic strategies employed in the treatment of lung cancer, breast cancer, and melanoma Compare the drug discovery platforms that are being developed to analyze promising novel targeted agents Identify the potential for use of stem cells in anticancer therapy Assess the feasibility of agents, such as Notch and hedgehog inhibitors, that target cellular components involved in developmental processes in anticancer therapy Review current data correlating different biomarkers with response to EGFR-targeted therapy and resistance to HER2-targeted therapy Illustrate the potential of monoclonal antibody therapy in targeting cell surface receptors involved in cancer pathogenesis Discuss the mechanisms of action of and evaluate clinical data on agents targeting the tumor microenvironment Explain the potential of biomarkers in predicting response to treatment with antiangiogenic agents
Who Should Attend: This educational program is directed toward medical oncologists, translational researchers (both MDs and PhDs), drug developers from academia and industry, and other persons interested in cancer drug development.

Let $f(x) = \frac{x}{x}$.
Is it correct to say that $f(x) \ne 1$, since $f(x)$ has a discontinuity at $x=0$?
Let $f(x) = \frac{x}{x}$.
Is it correct to say that $f(x) \ne 1$, since $f(x)$ has a discontinuity at $x=0$?
It depends on the domain of $f$ and $1$. If these are $\Bbb R\setminus\{0\}$ and $\Bbb R$, respectively, from a formal perspective the functions will not be equal. Restricted to a domain $S \subseteq \Bbb R$ where both are well-defined (i.e. not containing $0$), they are equal.
Exactly, $f$ is the constant $1$ function on its domain $\Bbb R\setminus\{0\}$.
A given function always comes with a domain. For two functions to be equal (in a formal sense) the domains need to be the same.
For example consider the functions: $$ f: \mathbb{R} \to [0,\infty) $$ given by $$ f(x) = x^2 $$ and the function $$ g: [0,\infty) \to [0,\infty) $$ given by $$ g(x) = x^2. $$ These two functions are not the same even though they are given by the same expression. Note for example that $g$ is one-to-one (injective), while $f$ is not. (If the functions were the same, then one would think that they should have exactly the same properties.)
Now, often we don't specify the domain. We just talk about the function defined by (say) $h(x) = \frac{1}{x}$. In such a case we usually assume that the domain is the set of all $x$ ]for which the expression makes sense. Hence the domain of $h$ is $\mathbb{R}\setminus \{0\}$.
Now then, when you write $f(x) = \frac{x}{x}$, then I would say that the domain is $\mathbb{R}\setminus\{0\}$, because I cannot evaluate the expression at $0$. The domain of the function $g(x) = 1$ is all real numbers. So we would not say that the functions are equal.
Note also that to cancel $x$ in the expression $\frac{x}{x}$, $x$ would have to be non-zero.
Edit: About the discontinuity argument, I notice that in the comments to your questions people are saying that "discontinuous" doesn't mean "not continuous". I am not sure that this is a universally agreed upon notion. According to Wikipedia: "If a function is not continuous at a point in its domain, one says that it has a discontinuity there." So Wikipedia seems to agree with the comments. According to Wolfram MathWorld: discontinuous means not continuous. In any case, you are right in noting that the functions are not equal because the function $f(x) = \frac{x}{x}$ is not continuous at $0$.

This Edible Water Bottle Could Help Prevent A Bunch of Pending Environmental Disasters
Might take some time getting used to drinking from a blob, but when you consider the alternatives ...
READ: 15 Minute Recipes that are Good for Your Skin
The brainchild of three London-based industrial-designer wannabes, Ooho, fashioned from an edible algae membrane, may seem an unlikely eco-hero but given its ability to hold water -- and biodegrade/be eaten -- may be just the savior the our plastic-addicted planet so desperately needs.
The concept? Replace the 60 million plastic water bottles we throw away every day (in America alone) with this blobby looking bubble.
Created using "spherification" (a fancy gastronomical cooking procedure typically employed to recreate the look of caviar or gnocchi) to form brown algae and calcium chloride into blobs capable of containing liquids, Ooho takes the concept of natural and edible packaging from fantasy to reality.
READ: Is Drinking 8 Glasses of Water Really That Important?
Having just won the prestigious Lexus Design Award, a competition that gives young inventors/innovators an opportunity to showcase their works and receive feedback from pioneers in their given fields, Ooho is an inexpensive, (it only costs two cents to make one pouch) environmentally friendly alternative to the dreaded plastic bottles that overflow our landfills with no end in sight.
As one who loses way too much sleep over the condition of this, our one and only planet, I say "sign me up."

2015 fees: $105.00
A majority of the Doisy College of Health Science's learning experience facilities mandate that criminal background checks be performed on all persons having any opportunity for patient/client interaction. This includes employees and volunteers, as well as students. A CBC revealing a charge and/or conviction for certain crimes could result in a ban from participation in learning experiences and thus prevent graduation. Therefore, every student in the Doisy College of Health Sciences whose academic program requires her/him to participate in learning experiences in an affiliate facility will be required to undergo the level of CBC required by their major department and/or the affiliate facility.
The Office of Clinical Education Compliance has a detailed policy that outlines the procedure for obtaining a CBC through the University. Please refer to the Office of Clinical Education Compliance or your department for a copy of this policy.
The timing of a CBC will be in concert with the student's program/department or affiliate facility policies. A single negative check does NOT preclude the requirement of additional checks at a future time. Students should be aware that any affirmative results from a CBC could restrict ability to participate in a learning experience and therefore restrict ability to complete degree requirements. In addition, the lack of an acceptable report on a CBC could bar the student from sitting for licensure examinations and thus from practice in certain professions.
In the event that a student's CBC is reported "affirmatively" the student will have the opportunity to contest the report by requesting an additional CBC. In the event that an Affirmative CBC is confirmed, the compliance officer will notify the designated program/department official and the student.
Drug Screen
2015 Fees: $70.00
A pre-placement drug screen is required for accreditation standards in the affiliated hospitals in which University faculty and staff work. To comply with these standards and federal regulations, Saint Louis University will require that a pre-placement drug screen occur for students in clinical placement where there will be occupational activities in a University affiliated hospital, clinical site, direct patient contact, or employment.
The student will be advised of the pre-placement drug screen requirement prior to beginning the program. The candidate will be provided with instructions for scheduling the drug screen in Student Health.
If the candidate satisfactorily completes the drug screen, and it is negative, Student Health will notify the Program Director.
Candidates who have a positive drug screen are interviewed by an independent Medical Review Officer who determines if there is a legitimate reason for the presence of a controlled substance. The results of this interview are provided to Student Health and made available to the program.
In the event of a positive result, the Program Director and student will be notified of the positive drug screen. The student will be counseled, and further action regarding the student's enrollment in the program will be considered. The student will be advised that a positive test may result in immediate dismissal from the program.
Other required immunizations/screenings required for clinical placement:
Respiratory Fit Test
Provided at SLU Student Health
2015 fees: $10.00
Two Step Tb/PPD Screening
Provided at SLU Student Health
2015 fees: $28.00 each

Murdered: Soul Suspect gets a solid June release date with a price drop on PS3, Xbox 360 and PCWritten by: / / 6 Comments
Square Enix recently narrowed down the release window for Murdered: Soul Suspect to 'June' (which was a good excuse to take another look at the murder mystery puzzle game with a new trailer and screenshots), but the publisher has more recently announced that we'll be able to find out exactly what the game is starting in early June.
Releasing on June 3rd in North America and June 6th in Europe, the UK and related regions, Square Enix calls Murdered: Soul Suspect a "supernatural detective thriller," which goes some way to identifying what we're up for in the game, but you would do well to read over El33tonline's preview to find out about the puzzles and action we can expect to see in this unique-sounding adventure game.
Square Enix has additionally announced that the PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of Murdered: Soul Suspect will be available for $49.99 in North America – $10 less than regular new releases – while the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One editions will be priced at the normal $59.99. A pre-order incentive has also been revealed, at least for North American retailers, which will net you "an interactive digital strategy map," which can be viewed on a PC or tablet device to find secrets, special items, quest givers and collectibles.
Has Murdered: Soul Suspect caught your eye, or is the game still a little too mysterious for your liking?
Look over El33tonline's previous coverage to discover more about the intriguing title with screenshots, trailers and more details.

The apartment was large enough. In the sleeping area can not stand it because it only about 140 cm high. The apartment you I know so far from Salvatore (3) are designed. The location is central, near tram station
The apartment was on the 3rd floor and the elevator was within 6 days 3 times broken.
The front door had no lock and people have urinated in the aisle.
The apartment was absolutely not professionally cleaned (I have to do with it). For me, does it look as if no one controls. The bathroom had mold which was not addressed and escalated.
ES is the zwite I at Salvat
Die Wohnung war genügend Gross. Im Schafbereich kann man nicht stehen, da er nur cirka 140 cm hoch. Die Wohnung dich ich bis jetzt von Salvatore kenne (3) sind so konstruiert. Die Lage ist zentral, nähe Tramstation
Die Wohnung war im 3 Stock und der Lift war innerhalb 6 Tagen 3 mal kaputt.
Die Eingangstür war ohne Schloss und Leute haben in den Gang uriniert.
Die Wohnung wurde absolut nicht professionell gereinigt (Ich habe damit zu tun). Für mich sieht das aus, als ob das niemand kontrolliert. Im Badezimmer hatte es Schimmel der nicht behandelt wurde und sich ausweitete.
ES ist das zwite das ich bei Salvat
Very nice, clean apartment. Small but everything is there that you need. Very centrally located.
Sehr schöne, saubere Wohnung. Klein aber es ist alles da was man braucht. Sehr zentral gelegen.
Excellent reception and service, highly recommended!
Excellent accueil et service, vivement recommandé !
Lovely apartment. Everything worked fine. Wonderful morning sun. Hzge terrasse. Well located. We will go there again for sure
It's a very nice, clean, modern decorated and centrally located apartment In an approximate 10 minutes walking distance from the sea. It also feels really safe to stay there as there is a video recording of all people coming in and out at the main entrance to the apartment's block. Salvatore is a great host, very friendly and welcoming. I really enjoyed my stay there
Salvatore was not available, but the exact contact information replacement dealer. Stephane immediately responded jelentkezésünkig. The accommodation We arrived several hours before the specified time, however - after we called Stephane.t front of the apartment - he came in 40 minutes and allowed into the apartment. Even the packages have some help, gave a brief guided tour, what to see in Nice. The apartment is clean, modern, spacious been equipped with everything you might need during a vacation. A beautiful terrace with views of the nearby mountains and the beach is 10 minutes walk from the house. Even the parking we were able to solve, actually in front of the house. During the day you have to pay parking fees, which were not many, and not taken too seriously. The mall is within walking distance of the old town and close to the nearby bakery, élelmiszerboltok.A safe area. The next time you go to Nice, secure this apartment is selected again.
Salvatore nem ért rá, de pontos elérhetőséget adott helyettesítőjéhez. Stephane azonnal válaszolt jelentkezésünkre. A szálláshoz a megadott idő előtt órákkal értünk oda, ennek ellenére - miután felhívtuk Stephane.t az apartman elől - ő 40 perc múlva odajött és beengedett a lakásba. Még a csomagokat is segített felvinni, adott egy rövid idegenvezetést, mit érdemes megnézni Nizzában. Az apartman tiszta, modern, tágas volt, felszerelve mindennel, amire szükséged lehet egy nyaraláskor. A terasz gyönyörű, kilátással a közeli hegyekre, s a strand valóban 10 perc sétára van a háztól. Még a parkolást is meg tudtuk oldani, tulajdonképpen a ház előtt. Napközben kellett parkolódíjat fizetni, ami nem volt sok, és nem vették túl szigorúan. A sétálóutca és az óváros még gyalog is közel, a közelben pékség, élelmiszerboltok.A környék biztonságos. Ha legközelebb Nizzába megyünk, biztos megint ezt az apartmant választjuk.
Lovely we'll equipped studio in a quiet,well looked after appartment block.Finding the appartment was easy.I took the bus from the airport and 10 mins later it stoppen outside the appartment.I was met by Salvatore's cousin who gave me helpfull tips for my days in Nice.
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay,just 2 mins from the beach,and although walking to the centre takes About 20 mins,the buses run regually to the old town,centre and the train station.
The swimmingpool was great after sightseeing and shopping,although not as large as on the Photo ,it never seemed to be too Busy .
I especially appreciated the flexible departure time,and the fact that i had somewhere to Leave my luggage .i would recomended this studio for 2 people and Will definately return.
The apartment was centrally located (near the old town, and literally right on the beach), but in a backyard and in a peaceful location. It had everything you could want - for cooking as well as simple to stay - thanks to the large terrace (only downside - no view, but that's the price of peace in the center of the city). Another minor drawback - it does not have parking, and parking facilities in Nice are very expensive: for 5 nights we paid about 100 euros for additional parking. The hosts were friendly and helpful. Have even waited for us over 1 hour because we stuck in a traffic jam. I would recommend the apartment and pure conscience this host.
Die Wohnung war zentral gelegen (nahe der Altstadt, sowie praktisch direkt am Strand), aber in einem Hinterhof und dadurch herrlich ruhig. Es hatte alles was man wünschen kann - zum Kochen sowie einfach zum Verweilen - dank der grossen Terrasse (einziger Nachteil - keinen Ausblick, aber das ist der Preis der Ruhe im Zentrum der Stadt). Noch ein kleiner Minuspunkt - es hat keinen Parkplatz, und die Parkings in Nizza sind sehr teuer: für 5 Nächte haben wir über 100 Euro zusätzlich für Parking bezahlt.
Die Gastgeber waren freundlich und hilfsbereit. Haben sogar auf uns über 1 Stunde gewartet, weil wir im Stau steckten. Ich würde reines Gewissens die Wohnung und dieser Gastgeber weiterempfehlen.
The apartment has a very good location to both the sea and at the same time close enough to central areas of Nice. All kind of shops for food and accommodation doorstep. We had the late, great evenings on the spacious terrace and the apartment is completely free of annoying noises of the night / morning. A fresh and "new" apartment. A less that the owner agreed a price of mail in advance, but another when we were paying. Furthermore, we experienced a partially clogged drain in the shower as the owner would fix. This did not happen.
Leiligheten har en meget god beliggenhet, både til sjøen og samtidig nært nok til sentrale områder i Nice. Alle type butikker for mat og opphold rett utenfor døra. Vi hadde sene, fine kvelder på den romslige terrassen og leiligheten er helt fri for sjenerende støy på natta/morgenen.
En fresh og "ny" leilighet.
Et minus at eier avtalte en pris på mail i forkant, men en annen da vi skulle betale. Videre opplevde vi et delvis tett sluk i dusjen som eier skulle fikse. Dette skjedde ikke.
We tried for the first time Wimdu, and was initially positive to the apartment, which looked decent and nice in the pictures. We were even more positive when we arrived. The apartment in 5 Rue Francoise Aune, was in the 5th floor, and thus we came up from street level both in terms of noise and street lights. A lovely balcony with awnings all the way, it was good to have both morning and evening. The apartment was more than big enough for us, a family of four, although the living room then had to be used as bedroom two. The balcony was our living. Practical with access from every room to the balcony, quite apart from the bathroom. Our host, Salvatore, we hit not face to face, but we were greeted by an assistant, who was very nice. Salvatore responded promptly to our inquiries, and seemed very sympathetic and honest. If we were missing something, he was quick to sort out! The area round the apartment is quiet and friendly, with supermarket, boulangeries and other shops in the immediate vicinity. Perfect location for excursions either by train or bus, then the train station is in just 10 minutes walking distance and 7-8 minutes down to the Promenade des Anglais, where we could take the bus from. We only postive experiences, except that all the towels we were given smelled sour, and had taken a round in the washing machine before use. We will gladly back down :)
Vi prøvde for første gang Wimdu, og var i utgangspunktet positive til leiligheten, som så helt grei og fin ut på bildene. Vi ble enda mer positive når vi kom frem. Selve leiligheten i 5 Rue Francoise Aune, lå i 5 etasje, og dermed kom vi opp fra gatenivå både når det gjaldt støy og gatelys. En deilig balkong med markiser hele veien, var god å ha både om morgenen og kvelden. Leiligheten var mer enn stor nok for oss, en familie på fire, selv om stuen da måtte brukes som soverom to. Balkongen ble vårt oppholdsrom. Praktisk med utgang fra alle rom til balkongen, rent bortsett fra badet. Vår vert, Salvatore, traff vi ikke ansikt til ansikt, men vi ble møtt av en assistent, som var meget hyggelig. Salvatore svarte umiddelbart på alle våre henvendelser, og virket meget sympatisk og etterrettelig. Hvis vi manglet noe, var han kjapp med å ordne opp! Strøket rundt denne leiligheten er rolig og vennlig, med supermarked, boulangeries og andre butikker i umiddelbar nærhet. Perfekt beliggenhet for utflukter enten med tog eller buss, da togstasjonen befinner seg i kun 10 minutters gangavstand, og 7-8 minutter ned til Promenade des Anglais, der vi kunne ta buss fra. Vi har bare postive opplevelser, bortsett fra at alle håndklær vi fikk luktet surt, og måtte tas en runde i vaskemaskinen før bruk. Vi kommer gjerne ned igjen :)

(bisoprolol fumarate and hydrochlorothiazide) Tablets
ZIAC® (bisoprolol fumarate and hydrochlorothiazide) is indicated for the treatment of hypertension. It combines two antihypertensive agents in a once-daily dosage: a synthetic betar selective (cardioselective) adrenoceptor blocking agent (bisoprolol fumarate) and a benzothiadiazine diuretic (hydrochlorothiazide).
Bisoprolol fumarate is chemically described as (±)-l-[4-[[2-(l- methylethoxy)ethoxy]methyl]phenoxy]-3-[(l-methylethyl)amino]-2-propanol(E)-2-butenedioate (2:1) (salt). It possesses an asymmetric carbon atom in its structure and is provided as a racemic mixture. The S(-) enantiomer is responsible for most of the beta-blocking activity. Its empirical formula is (C18H31NO4)2•C4H4O4 and it has a molecular weight of 766.97. Its structural formula is:
Bisoprolol fumarate is a white crystalline powder, approximately equally hydrophilic and lipophilic, and readily soluble in water, methanol, ethanol, and chloroform.
Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) is 6-Chloro-3,4-dihydro-2H-l,2,4-benzothiadiazine-7-sulfonamide 1,1-dioxide. It is a white, or practically white, practically odorless crystalline powder. It is slightly soluble in water, sparingly soluble in dilute sodium hydroxide solution, freely soluble in n-butylamine and dimethylformamide, sparingly soluble in methanol, and insoluble in ether, chloroform, and dilute mineral acids. Its empirical formula is C7H8ClN3O4S2 and it has a molecular weight of 297.73. Its structural formula is:
Each ZIAC®-2.5 mg/6.25 mg tablet for oral administration contains:
Bisoprolol fumarate................................2.5 mg

Dec. 6, 2011 -- For a while, it seemed the bedbug had gone the way of the Edsel automobile and cold water flats. Not anymore -- as we've learned. They're back with a vengeance, and experts now seem to know why.
Bedbugs may not get as much play in the media as they did in the summer of 2010, but they are here to stay, experts warned at the annual meeting of the American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene (ASTMH) in Philadelphia. New research presented here helps explain why they are back and a lot of it has to do with an ability to outsmart existing treatments.
We saw hide nor hair from these vermin in the U.S. for close to 60 years, but now the number of bedbug infestations in homes, hotel rooms, and the like has jumped 10- to 100-fold since 1990.
What Is a Bed Bug?
Bedbugs are wingless, rust-colored insects. They are about the size of an apple seed. They don't spread disease, but they do bite and munch on your blood. Their bites can trigger allergic reactions, including welts and itching in some people. Other people may not have any symptoms after a bite.
Part of the reason they are here en masse is their tremendous capacity for inbreeding. Researchers studied bed bugs from buildings in North Carolina and New Jersey and found an uncanny family resemblance among them. This was confirmed in another study of 21 bedbug infestations from Maine to Florida.
Others species don't survive after inbreeding, but bed bugs don't just survive, they thrive, says Coby Schal, PhD. He is an entomologist at the North Carolina State University in Raleigh, N.C. "A single mated female can create a whole new population or infestation," he says.
"We are just seeing the tip of the iceberg," Schal says. "They are here to stay for awhile."
But this doesn't necessarily mean you should avoid movie theaters, hotel rooms, or other places where bedbugs lurk.
"Bedbugs don't hitchhike on people," he says. "They are more likely to take a blood meal for five to 10 minutes and leave."
This means they piggyback on your stuff instead. "You can pick up bed bugs on furniture and clothing," he says.

A solid disk of mass m is rolling along a surface its center has velocity v what is the kinetic energy of disk?I cannot solve the problem,
closed as too localized by David Z♦ Jul 13 '12 at 15:50
This question is unlikely to help any future visitors; it is only relevant to a small geographic area, a specific moment in time, or an extraordinarily narrow situation that is not generally applicable to the worldwide audience of the internet. For help making this question more broadly applicable, visit the help center.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
the rules forbid us from answering homework questions, but we're allowed to discuss the concepts involved.
In your case the disk has energy because it's moving at velocity $v$, and you calculate the kinetic energy in the usual way for a moving body. It also has energy because it's rotation. You know the speed of the edge of the disk (assuming it's not skidding as the disk rotates) so you can work out it's energy of rotation. If you don't know the equation for calculkating the rotational energy of a disk it's easily Googled for.
$ E_{k}= \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} + \frac{1}{2}I \omega ^{2} $
the first term is because the disk is rolling
the second term is due to its rotational energy..

I have been working my way through Lawvere and Schanuel (1997) without too much trouble, but now that I am up to Article V, I am stumped. So, without further ado:
Exercise 6: In a category with products in which map objects exist for any two objects, there is for any three objects a standard map: $B^A \times C^B \stackrel{\gamma}{\longrightarrow} C^A$ which represents composition in the sense that $\gamma\langle\lceil f \rceil, \lceil g \rceil\rangle = \lceil gf \rceil $ for any $A \stackrel{f}{\longrightarrow} B \stackrel{g}{\longrightarrow} C.$
I understand how an exponential map object is like a product map, and I can diagram product maps just fine. They're pretty straightfoward. But for this problem, I think the key to solving the problem lies in isolating each of the $\lceil f \rceil, \lceil g \rceil$ terms in order to calculate the product $\lceil gf \rceil$. In the book, they only give them as parameters of the functions f and g taking A to B and B to C, respectively.
When I was first stuck, I looked up the definition of a exponential map object in wikipedia, but that didn't help me in the calculation. I can write the diagram from A to B and from B to C separately, but I am stuck at the point of putting them together into a composite function.
