Apology offered over 1947 Hollywood 'communist blacklist'
The son of The Hollywood Reporter founder Billy Wilkerson is apologising for his father's and the trade paper's role in the 1947 "Hollywood blacklist" that destroyed the careers of writers, actors and directors accused of having communist ties.
In an article published on Monday by The Hollywood Reporter, Willie Wilkerson, 61, calls the blacklist era "Hollywood's Holocaust" and says, "On the eve of this dark 65th anniversary, I feel an apology is necessary."
He says his father supported the blacklist to exact revenge against the Hollywood titans he felt denied him entry to their club when he wanted to establish a movie studio in the late 1920s. Billy Wilkerson founded The Hollywood Reporter in 1930. After the second world war, he used the paper as a vehicle for a series of editorials attacking communist sympathisers and their influence in Hollywood.
"In his maniacal quest to annihilate the studio owners, he realised the most effective retaliation was to destroy their talent," Willie Wilkerson writes. "In the wake of this emerging hysteria surrounding communism, the easiest way to crush the studio owners was to simply call their actors, writers and directors communists. Unfortunately, they would become the collateral damage of history. Apart from being charged with contempt, for refusing to name names, none of these individuals committed any crimes."
Studios dominated the industry and denied work to those named on the blacklist. Some writers worked under pseudonyms. Many actors and their families moved overseas.
"Any man or woman who, under the guise of freedom of speech, or the cloak of the Bill of Rights, or under the pseudo protection of being a liberal, says things, causes things to be said, or who actually is involved with many of the conspiracies that have now infested this great land of ours, has no place among us, be he commie or what," Billy Wilkerson wrote on November 5, 1947. "He or she should be rushed out of our business."

Okay, yes, this film is worth watching because it's an early effort by
Lindsay Anderson. One cannot fully appreciate his later features
without seeing what he did in the early days of his career. But, my
God. This is a film about conveyor belts, and the men (and some women)
who make them possible, and the men who use them. And it's almost half
an hour long! It is truly a test of fortitude to watch piles of soil
pass by on a long conveyor over and over and over again, accompanied by
(first) some Aaron Copland music and (secondly) by a bespoke number
entitled Conveyor Boogie.
Rating industrial films is always a challenge, but I can't possibly give this one more than a 5.

Okay, here goes. I'm in for the long haul (pun intended). Keep Talking Baby has never been reviewed on IMDb, and I can't and won't let that pass. I WILL review it, and I WILL meet the ten line minimum - somehow. So here goes: Eddie Constantine plays a ventriloquist falsely convicted of murder who escapes from prison. He must prove his innocence, and hopefully see the real perps get sent to jail in his place. He meets a young girl, gives her a huge stuffed bunny rabbit, and is off to the races with his plan for revenge. That's about it. Eddie is fun as usual, but the story is ridiculous and the ventriloquism angle is used sparingly - so sparingly, it's hard to understand why the filmmakers went with it. He could have been anything: butcher, baker, candlestick maker - but I guess they wanted him to throw his voice a couple of times in the movie. Not that that's really him performing the ventriloquism, either - at least I don't think it is! Nevertheless, the film is on balance an enjoyable hour and a half. Be warned that some reels of Something Weird's print are horribly washed out, but there are no better options available at present.

If you're a fan of hippie rock, you might get some mileage out of this shot-in-Florida oddity. Yes, you get the full length version of Iron Butterfly's interminable In A Gadda Da Vida, the song that surely established the template for Spinal Tap's Jazz Odyssey as well as a million other improvisational music horror shows. As the boys lip synch their hearts out (the bass player really seems to have enjoyed himself), director Barry Mahon splices in footage of a very bored looking audience, with close-ups of happy teens bobbing up and down not-in-time to the music. If Iron Butterfly aren't your bag, man, there's even worse in the form of an amateurish Jefferson Airplane-type group, complete with caterwauling female vocalist. About the best of the bunch are The New Society, who sound like a 1970 garage band desperately trying to stay in touch with their 1966 garage band roots. As for the story - what story? Dig the psychedelic kaleidoscope 'light show' effects instead.

A serial killer is on the loose, and it's up to Inspector Griffith to end their reign of terror. This extremely rare crime thriller was only available briefly from the now late lamented Video Search of Miami, and the print they utilized was, frankly, execrable. For starters, the film was shot in Italian, but VSOM's print was dubbed in French with English subtitles. In addition, it's horribly pan and scanned and is badly washed out in that special 'faded Eastmancolor' way we all know and love. And then there's the odd alternate title, Teledrome - suggestive of a 1980s home video boom retitling to somehow convince gullible renters that Hipnos follia di massacro was related to David Cronenberg's Videodrome. Don't YOU be the person who falls for this pitch: this is (at least until the final 20 minutes) a pretty straightforward cop movie with, unfortunately, not a great deal to recommend it (at least in this form). A good cast (Robert Woods, Rada Rassimov, and Fernando Sancho - here seen without a sombrero!) offers minor compensation.

This extremely obscure French drama starts out promisingly as a jury discusses the verdict they're going to deliver in the trial of a man accused of murdering his spouse. Unable to come to an agreement, the jury remains hung, and Richard (Serge Sauvion) is freed to begin a new life. And what does he do? Why, unwittingly begins a relationship with the daughter (Magali de Vendeuil) of one of the jurists! Dad is unhappy with their relationship, but that doesn't stop the lovebirds from marrying. Things are great at first, but slowly things begin to sour...and we begin to wonder if Richard really DID kill wife number one. Featuring a jazzy score from frequent Jess Franco collaborator Daniel White, this is a solid little picture that would probably play better in French with English subtitles (this review is based on a dubbed TV print) and in its original aspect ratio (the TV print looks more than a little tight).

Have you heard - or seen - the one about the super-talented young dancer who needs to overcome adversity at home whilst trying to control his/her bad attitude in order to fulfill his/her full potential? Well in case you haven't, here it is again, this time shot in the Dominican Republic. Hayrol Abreu stars as Juan, a massively coiffed dancer with an equally massive chip on his shoulder and stardust in his feet. Or maybe it's in his ankles...it's always hard to tell in these movies. Rhythm of Faith's wealth of clichés is partially counterbalanced by the seriousness of its intent, but Juan is such a insufferable jerk it's difficult to root for him. Will he manage to save his grandma from being evicted? Will he bother to get that visa that will allow him to make a fresh start in the Big Apple? Will someone say 'Hey kids, let's put on a show' in Spanish? It's all completely predictable, but at least it's better than most American made dance movies.

NOTE: This review is for the original version of El hombre que vino del
odio, not the version re-cut as Mean Mother.
Argentinian director Leon Klimovsky was truly a master of all genres: over the course of his long career he helmed horror flicks (the excellent The People Who Own the Dark), spaghetti westerns (A Few Dollars for Django), gialli (A Dragonfly for Each Corpse), and war movies (A Bullet for Rommel). A Soldier Named Joe initially seems likely to fall into the last category, but like most Klimovsky films it's anything but straightforward. Joe (Dennis Safren) is an aspiring concert pianist and Vietnam War draftee sentenced to Leavenworth for treachery by an officer who sounds oddly like Paths of Glory's George Macready. When the jeep transporting Joe to the brig is ambushed by Viet Cong, our anti-hero deserts and makes his way all the way across Thailand and India to Karachi, Pakistan, where he finds himself stranded until Daniel (Lang Jeffries) comes to his rescue - but there's a catch. Daniel can help Joe get to Rome...if he carries something there for him. Uh oh! The twists keep coming throughout this film, which used to play on TV during the '70s but has only been seen since on Greek videotape. Also featuring Luciana Paluzzi and Antonio Mayans, this is a decent little intriguer that deserves better than to be completely forgotten.

This was my first George Kuchar film. If you're not ready to see a hairy geek scratching his genitalia and rolling around nude on the bed (presumably in an effort to get comfortable in the summer heat), it's probably not for you. On the other hand, if you're interested in seeing a little time capsule of mid 1980s New York City, this is quite an interesting little item. Kuchar, returning to the Big Apple after years on the West Coast, drags his video camera around town re-acquainting himself with old friends from high school and the art world. It's oddly nostalgic, strangely heartwarming, and a lot easier to appreciate than most of the films George's brother Mike made (or at least, the ones I've seen).

The line of dialogue quoted in my summary line is reason enough to check out this made in South Africa faux Eurowestern, which used to air on TV from time to time in the early '80s but now only seems to exist on videotape. Overall, it's a surprisingly good effort and could easily pass for 'the real thing'. Plot points and narrative are largely immaterial in this familiar tale of bad guys searching for wealth in the Old West, but the film hits all the right notes: the characters are scummy but likable, cinematography quite good (though obviously compromised by panning and scanning), and Keith Mansfield's jazzy score surprisingly appropriate and refreshingly free of twanging guitars and windy harmonica. Heck, if someone bothered to release the score, I'd buy it - and if a worthy outfit like Wild East saw fit to dust off the film and release it on disc I'd buy that, too.

As a fan of Mexican cinema in general and of 'Mexi-horror' in particular, it's a shame this film never made it to American television (or cinemas, for that matter). However, it's totally understandable: shot in black and white in 1967, it would have been a hard sell for most north of the border distributors - including, apparently, K. Gordon Murray! Directed by Rene Cardona and shot at Churubusco, the film displays all the Gothic ambiance of a a film ten years older, and relies on wrestling stars as its primary box office draw. Secondary box office draw: the eye-popping antics of Manuel 'Loco' Valdés, here cast in a typical comic relief role. The film is only available on a Spanish language disc (no extras, no subtitles), but no one watches these things for the sparkling and witty dialogue, so even if you are strictly an Anglophone you may get some mileage from Las Mujeres Panteras.

Sony announces its Xperia Z4v as a Verizon exclusive in the US, but little has changed from 2014's Xperia Z3v — including the much-hyped Remote Play feature.
Major stakeholders are pitching in to help the government come to grips with the new reality created by personal drones.
In a landmark decision today, the US Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit ruled that bulk metadata collection as practiced by the NSA is not legally justified under the Patriot Act.
Verizon has been hit by a pair of bad practices and false claims regarding its FiOS service. Net neutrality or not, old anti-consumer habits die hard.
Verizon has trotted out a talking head (as an independent opinion, natch) to claim that no, people don't really want unlimited data. Otherwise, Verizon might have to upgrade its network.
Verizon has finally added the ability to opt out of its highly controversial supercookie tracking program, but the move is unlikely to satisfy privacy advocates — and it's part of a wider trend towards comprehensive data gathering on customers.
Think you have a pretty good understanding of LTE? This article takes a deep look into how LTE is deployed, how LTE works as a radio technology, the types of LTE, how LTE affects battery life, what carriers will do with LTE, and the future of 4G as a whole.
Congress members in the House of Representatives have proposed a bill that would obviate the Patriot Act and end the NSA's bulk data collection. Meanwhile, FCC Commissioner Ajit Pai has asked the government to refuse to fund the FCC in order to block net neutrality.
Google has confirmed that it intends to offer some form of carrier service across partner networks, but may stop short of offering a cohesive smartphone brand.
Earlier today, the FCC voted three-to-two in favor of reclassifying internet service providers as common carriers under Title II of the Communications Act of 1934. Under this classification, the FCC will now have the authority to enforce net neutrality for American ISPs.

text: jaydoz, the part you are missing is that secession was not prohibitted in the constitution and was widely recognized, even in the north, as a state or group of states rights. in fact, a group of states in new england had earlier seriously contemplated secession but at no time were they threated with war to remain in the voluntary union. we are now an obligated union of republics(states) that have had most their powers transferred to the centralized govt. just rewrite the constitution and quit pretending we have a govt that guides itself by its priciples. lincoln trampled and tore up the constitution to win taxation without representation over the south. freeing the slaves had nothing to do with starting the civil war.

Washington, D.C. – Campaign Money Watch, a nonpartisan campaign finance watchdog group, today called on Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) to answer crucial questions about the relationship between his campaign manager Rick Davis and Freddie Mac, the mortgage giant recently taken over by the government, and to demand that the campaign release a comprehensive list of Davis' consulting firm's contracts.
As reported today by The New York Times, Newsweek, and numerous other media organizations, the scandal-plagued mortgage giant Freddie Mac paid Davis' firm, Davis Manafort, $15,000 a month from 2005 until as recently as last month in exchange for the access Davis provided to the Republican presidential nominee.
"John McCain's campaign manager and Freddie Mac had what amounts to a secret half a million dollar lay-a-way plan," said David Donnelly, director of Campaign Money Watch. "For almost three years and as late as last month, Freddie Mac made secret, monthly payments of $15,000 to Rick Davis's firm for a no-show job, apparently in exchange for providing special access to a future McCain White House.
"Today's question is, what other secret deals are Rick Davis and the McCain campaign hiding? The McCain campaign appears to be nothing more than a 'Rent-to-Own' operation, staffed and aided by lobbyists who are ready to cash in for themselves and their powerful clients. It's the worst of the pay-to-play Washington game," Donnelly continued. "The McCain campaign ought to immediately release all of Davis Manafort's clients, how much they paid, and what the firm did for the money. Does Davis have other no-show jobs in exchange for future White House access? If so, or if they refuse to release the information, Davis ought to be fired."
Campaign Money Watch is a project of the nonpartisan Public Campaign Action Fund. Earlier this year, it launched a Web site, McCainsLobbyists.com, highlighting the connections between McCain and the lobbyists who advise, staff and raise money for his campaign. The organization works to hold politicians who are against comprehensive campaign finance reform accountable for where they get their political donations.

6 Top Health Threats to Men
More boys than girls are born every year in the U.S. But any lead in health men start with vanishes with the first dirty diaper.
From infancy to old age, women are simply healthier than men. Out of the 15 leading causes of death, men lead women in all of them except Alzheimer's disease, which many men don't live long enough to develop. Although the gender gap is closing, men still die five years earlier than their wives, on average.

Men's Health Tune-Up Schedule: Medical Tests
Men rarely see Thomas J. Weida, MD, for medical tests without prodding from a wife or girlfriend. When they do show up, Weida jokes that he "can see the drag marks on the carpet." It's amusing, of course. But it can quickly turn serious when a man ignores important symptoms. Weida says he knows of men who got away with ignoring chest pain for a couple of weeks. Eventually, though, they died of heart attacks.
Read the Men's Health Tune-Up Schedule: Medical Tests article > >
While the reasons are partly biological, men's approach to their health plays a role too, experts tell WebMD.
"Men put their health last," says Demetrius Porche, DNS, RN, editor in chief of the American Journal of Men's Health. "Most men's thinking is, if they can live up to their roles in society, then they're healthy."
Men go to the doctor less than women and are more likely to have a serious condition when they do go, research shows. "As long as they're working and feeling productive, most men aren't considering the risks to their health," says Porche.
But even if you're feeling healthy, a little planning can help you stay that way. The top threats to men's health aren't secrets: they're known, common, and often preventable. WebMD consulted the experts to bring you this list of the top health threats to men, and how to avoid them.
Cardiovascular Disease: The Leading Men's Health Threat
They call it atherosclerosis, meaning "hardening of the arteries." But it could as easily be from the Latin for "a man's worst enemy."
"Heart disease and stroke are the first and second leading causes of death worldwide, in both men and women," says Darwin Labarthe, MD, MPH, PhD, director of the Division for Heart Disease and Stroke Prevention at the CDC. "It's a huge global public health problem, and in the U.S. we have some of the highest rates."
In cardiovascular disease, cholesterol plaques gradually block the arteries in the heart and brain. If a plaque becomes unstable, a blood clot forms, blocking the artery and causing a heart attack or stroke.

Tailored delivery of neurotrophic factors (NFs) is a critical challenge that continues to inhibit strategies for guidance of axonal growth in vivo. Of particular importance is the ability to recreate innervation of distant brain regions by transplant tissue, for instance rebuilding the nigrostriatal track, one focus in Parkinson's disease research. Many strategies have utilized polymer drug delivery to target NF release in space and time, but combinatorial approaches are needed to deliver multiple NFs at relevant therapeutic times and locations without toxic side effects. Here we engineered a paradigm of PLGA microparticles entrapped within a degradable PEG-based hydrogel device to locally release two different types of NFs with two different release profiles. Hydrogel/microparticle devices were developed and analyzed for their ability to release GDNF in the caudal area of the brain, near the substantia nigra, or BDNF in the rostral area, near the striatum. The devices delivered their respective NFs in a region localized to within 100 μm of the bridge, but not exclusively to the targeted rostral or caudal ends. BDNF was slowly released over a 56-day period, whereas a bolus of GDNF was released around 28 days. The timed delivery of NFs from implanted devices significantly reduced the microglial response relative to sham surgeries. Given the coordinated drug delivery ability and reduced localized inflammatory response, this multifaceted PEG hydrogel/PLGA microparticle strategy may be a useful tool for further development in combining tissue engineering and drug delivery, and recreating the nigrostriatal track. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

This relates to apparatus for parallel processing of signals.
Recently, advances in the computational circuits art have brought to the forefront a class of highly parallel computation circuits that solve a large class of complex problems in analog fashion. These circuits comprise a plurality of amplifiers having a sigmoid transfer function and a resistive feedback network that connects the output of each amplifier to the input of the other amplifiers. Each amplifier input also includes a capacitor connected to ground and a resistor connected to ground, which may or may not include a capacitance and a conductance in addition to the parasitic capacitance and conductance. Input currents are fed into each amplifier input, and output is obtained from the collection of output voltages of the amplifiers.
A generalized diagram of this circuit is shown in FIG. 1, depicting amplifiers 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 with positive and negative outputs V1, V2, V3, V4, and Vn, respectively. Those outputs are connected to an interconnection block 20 which has output lines 41-45 connected to the input ports of amplifiers 10-14, respectively. Within interconnection block 20, each output voltage Vi is connected to each and every output line of block 20 through a conductance (e.g., resistor). For convenience, the conductance may be identified by the specific output line (i.e., source) that is connected by the conductance to a specific voltage line. For example, T21 + identifies the conductance that connects the non-inverting output V2 to the input of the first amplifier (line 41).
Also connected to each amplifier input port is a parallel arrangement of a resistor and a capacitor with their second lead connected to grounded, and means for injecting a current (from some outside source) into each input port.
Applying Kirchoff's current law to the input port of each amplifier i of FIG. 1 yields the equation: ##EQU1## where Ci is the capacitance between the input of amplifier i and ground,
1/Ri is the equivalent resistance and it equals ##EQU2## where ρi is the resistance between the input of amplifier i and ground,
Ui is the voltage at the input of amplifier i,
Tij + is the a conductance between the non-inverting output of amplifier j and the input of amplifier i,
Tij - is the a conductance between the inverting output of amplifier j and the input of amplifier i,
Vj is the positive output voltage of amplifier j, related Uj by the equation Vj =gi (Uj), and
Ii is the current driven into the input port of amplifier i by an external source.
When Tij + and Tij - are disjoint, Tij + -Tij - may for convenience be expressed as Tij, and it is well known that a circuit satisfying Equation (1) with symmetric Tij terms is stable. It is also well known that such a circuit responds to applied stimuli, and reaches a steady state condition after a short transition time. At steady state, dUi /dt=0 and dVi /dt=0.
With this known stability in mind, the behavior of other functions may be studied which relate to the circuit of FIG. 1 and involve the input signals of the circuit, the output signals of the circuit, and/or the circuit's internal parameters.
Indeed, in a copending application entitled Optimization Network for the Decomposition of Signals, by J. J. Hopfield, a function was studied that has the form ##EQU3## It is observed in this copending application that the integral of the function gi -1 (V) approaches 0 as the gain of amplifier i approaches infinity. It is also shown in the Hopfield application that the time derivative of the function E is negative, and that it reaches 0 when the time derivative of voltages Vi reaches 0. Since equation (1) assures the condition of dVi /dt approaching 0 for all i, the function E of equation (2) is assured of reaching a stable state. The discovery of this function E led to the use of the FIG. 1 circuit in problem solving applications (such as the classic traveling salesman problem), in associative memory applications, and in decomposition problems (as disclosed in another copending application, by J. J. Hopfield and D. W. Tank, titled Optimization Network for the Decomposition of Signals).
The FIG. 1 circuit can solve problems which can be structured so that the the function to be minimized has at most second order terms in some parameters of the problem to permit correspondence to Equation (2). Other problems, however, may required the minimization of equations that contain terms of order higher than two. Those problems are solvable through the use of inter-neuron amplifiers, as described in still another copending application filed on even data herewith, entitled "A Highly Parallel Computation Network With Means for Reducing the Algebraic Degree of the Objective Function".
In each one of above, the Tij + and the Tij - are conductances that assume different values, which are a function of the problem to be solved. But, in some applications mathematical niceties take a back seat to physical realities. In particular, in most physical systems, there is a relatively limited dynamic range for the values that Tij can conveniently assume. It is important to be able to construct these highly parallel interactive circuits with a limited repertoire of Tij conductances. An additional substantial benefit would result from the use of only two-valued conductances in that the amplifiers employed in the neural network can dispense with the positive output altogether. This would permit the use of amplifiers that are smaller, and allow the construction of the neural networks with fewer leads. The latter benefit would be substantial because it is the number of leads to and from the conductance matrix that, most often, is the limiting factor in the construction of large neural networks.
Advantageous neural network realizations are achieved in accordance with the principles of my invention by employing negative gain amplifiers that possess a single output, and a clipped T matrix having conductances Tij which have only two values: either a value set by a fixed resistor, or an open circuit. Values for the Tij terms of the clipped T matrix are obtained through an iterative process which operates on the clipped and nonclipped matrices and minimizes the error resulting from the use of the clipped T matrix.
FIG. 1 depicts the canonical structure of neural networks;
FIG. 2 illustrates an energy function having two local minima;
FIG. 3 shows the structure of neural networks embodying the principles of my invention.
Hopfield showed that the energy E given in equation (2) is a Lyapunov function of the FIG. 1 circuit. That means simply that since the Vi voltages obey the equations of motion of the FIG. 1 circuit, they will change in such a way that E(V)(t)) is a non-increasing function of time. Since E is bounded below, it must converge.
Hopfield further showed that the system necessarily converges to a limit point (generally a local minimum of the energy surface) where the neural voltages, Vi, are constant in time. This is in contrast to other systems in physics, where the system might converge to a limit cycle (like the perpetual orbit of a planet) where the Lyapunov function no longer decreases but the coordinates continues to change in time. A symmetric neural network has only limit points, while a non-symmetric network can have limit cycles.
Still further, it has also been shown in the aforementioned Hopfield applications that the dynamics of the FIG. 1 circuit tend to change the Vi voltages toward patterns that represent local stable minima of the energy function. These characteristic of the neural network points to its application as a content addressable memory. Indeed, it can be shown that the system of FIG. 1 and the energy function of equation (2) cooperate analogously to a massless marble rolling through a viscous fluid down an energy function. In this analogy, equation (2) is the energy function, and the different output voltages of the neural circuit are the components of a vector specifying the position of the marble in a multi-dimensional space. With this analogy in mind it can be observed that when the (energy function has low spots (which correspond to remembered points), the marble placed at some arbitrary position will roll down to a low spot and stop, along a trajectory of steepest descent.
FIG. 2 illustrates an energy function in three dimensions which is arranged to have two local minima: one at (T,T) and one at (F,F). It can intuitively be observed that the energy function of FIG. 2 has one watershed area which directs the marble to point (T,T), and one watershed area which directs the marble to point (F,F). These low spots can be defined in terms of the voltage coordinate sets and can be viewed as memory vectors, VI, each having N components, where N is the dimensionality of the energy function or, viewed in physical terms, where N is the number of amplifiers in the neural network.
The above highlights the fact that, in connection with the FIG. 1 circuit, a given energy function can have local minima and the fact that one can use these local minima to create a content addressable memory. What it implies is that it is possible to start with a given set of desired memory states, or memory vectors, and that a conductance matrix can be developed to provide a set of local minima that would correspond to the desired memories. Indeed, this is the case.
One approach for developing the Tij matrix values follows the teachings of D. O. Hebb in The Organization of Behavior, Wiley, N.Y. (1949). In accordance with this approach, memory vectors, VA, VB, VC, . . . , may be incorporated within the energy function by selecting the Tij terms in accordance with the equation
Tij =Vi A Vj A +Vi B Vj B +Vi C Vj C +. . . (3)
This rule creates a set of Tij terms when all of the memory vectors are known. There is also a variation on this rule which is incremental, in the sense that is possible to teach an old network new memories. Starting with a matrix Tij AB that remembers states A and B, an additional memory state can be inculcated into the matrix through a modification of the old matrix in accordance with the equation
Tij ABC =Tij AB +Vi C Vj C (4)
This approach is quite good, except that it develops a matrix that is sensitive to the level of correlation that exists between the memory vectors. When the vectors are orthogonal the performance is good, but when the vectors are correlated the performance may be poor. A better rule is one where
Tij ABC =Tij +Vi + Vj C (5)
Vi + =(Vi C -Vi *), and
Vi *=Tij AB Vj C (6)
This rule is superior to the Hebb rule because it performs well even when the memory vectors are correlated. Unfortunately, it is non-symmetric and non-commutative. The last memory presented tends to trample the others. A refinement of this rule is
Tij ABC =Tij AB +ΓVi + Vj C (7)
where Γ<1. Because Γ is less than one, the network learns only partially each time it is taught. If the list of desired memories is presented over and over again (preferably in random order) it can be shown that the conductance matrix of Tij values will converge sensibly.
A rule that not only performs the appropriate interpolation but also possesses a nice geometric interpretation is ##EQU4## where the dot between the V+ terms in the denominator indicates a dot product divided by N (where N is the dimensionality of the V+ vector). A further improvement of the above results from ##EQU5## where, as before, Γ<1.
The Tij values developed by the rules described above can, in principle, assume any positive or negative value. Positive conductance values, designated above by Tij +, are realized with resistors of appropriate value connected between the positive, or non-inverting, output of the relevant FIG. 1 amplifiers and the input of the other relevant amplifiers. Negative conductance values, designated above by Tij -, are realized with resistors of appropriate value connected between the negative or inverting output of the relevant FIG. 1 amplifiers and the input of the other relevant amplifiers.
It is of great benefit to be able to construct neural networks with a limited set of conductance values. It is of even greater benefit when such a set has only two members: "on" and "off", or a fixed conductance and a zero conductance. This greater benefit results from two facts: (1) it is easier to manufacture a circuit when only a single value of conductances needs to be created, and (2) when only a two valued conductance is used, one of the amplifier outputs can be dispensed with. Most advantageously, the positive, or non-inverting output is the one that is dropped, leaving physically smaller amplifiers (taking up less VLSI "real estate") and half as many amplifier output leads which must be routed to, and through, the matrix. Since the leads making up the matrix comprise the bulk of the matrix, a reduction in the number of leads by a factor of two results in a matrix that is essentially half as big as otherwise.
The truncation of the original, full dynamic range, matrix Tij to a clipped matrix Tij ' where the values have only two values follows a repetitive process where each of the memory vectors to be stored is considered and, based on this consideration, a clipped matrix is developed. After repetitive trials at learning all of the memory vectors the clipped matrix represents a good energy function.
The sequence for developing the clipped matrix Tij is as follows. For each memory vector, VA, compute
Vi + =(VA -Tij 'Vj A) (10)
and based on the above, compute ##EQU6## An alternative to equation (10) is
Tij '=sign (Tij +ΓVi + Vj A). (12)
This approach works well when some of the vectors are not fixed points. When that is the case, execution of the steps specified by equations (10) and (11), or (10) and (12), over all of the memory vectors changes the matrix at each iteration by a small amount Γ. Repetition of the above steps causes the clipped matrix to converge to some average, compromise value. When an iteration introduces no additional changes to the matrix Tij ', the process stops and the Tij values of the clipped matrix are inserted into the FIG. 3 network.
Of course, the clipping does not have to be done in accordance with the "sign" function, i.e., the function y=sign (x). In fact, one can use many other functions, such as y=sign (x-1)/2, which still is a step function; or a ramp function that allows the Tij terms to reside within a preselected interval, or range of values.
The above-described steps for developing a clipped matrix Tij ' are but two of the means for realizing my invention. A small number of specific equations were provided, but it is clear that other equations can serve equally well and are within the scope of my invention.

text: For decades, doctors and clinicians have had difficulties evaluating pain. Where does it hurt and how much does it hurt? The questions are difficult to answer because they are rarely quantified by accurate measurement. Patients' answers are almost always subject to interpretation. Combined with emotional bias and experience overload, patients receiving treatment for pain associated with accidents are usually treated on verbal complaints alone. The subjectivity hinders proper diagnosis and treatment.

Non-standard forms of employment are on the rise in many countries, including countries in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) region. This is one key finding of our study involving non-standard employment in formal enterprises in six ASEAN countries, namely, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Viet Nam. The need for numerical flexibility as a way to reduce the cost of longer-term employment is the main driver behind the decision of companies to use non-standard forms of employment. The demand for further flexibilisation of the workplace comes with the need for an adaptable and disposable workforce.

Emily said, "I found out about this challenge from my coach, Cindy Bickman, and I joined even though I already work out a lot! When I joined the "challenge," I found out there was more to exercising than just gymnastics. Apparently, I do a lot of exercising every day. I ended up telling Coach Cindy, because I knew she did a lot more than me! She has stairs at her place, and she teaches gymnastics and ballet 4 to 5 days a week, along with riding and taking care of her horses.

Two men cited in investigation into bear shooting in KillingtonStaff Report | August 25,2014KILLINGTON—The investigation into the shooting of a bear in a residential Killington neighborhood has led to charges against two men.
Scott Keefer, 24, of Killington, and Aaron Roucoulet, 20, also of Killington, were cited for taking a bear by illegal means, according to a press release from the state Fish & Wildlife Department.
The charges stem from an investigation into the shooting of a black bear killed on Anthony Way, a residential area in town, earlier this month.
The bear wandered into the backyard of Wade Collins before it died. Collins said he found the bear several days later because of the smell.
Warden Timothy Carey was called to the scene and conducted the investigation.
Carey determined that the bear had been shot and killed with a rifle, according to the release issued Monday.
On Aug. 22, game wardens issued a search warrant for a Killington residence that was nearby to where the bear was found, the release stated.
Evidence found during the residential search combined with information gathered during the investigation led to the two arrests, according to the Fish & Wildlife Department.MORE IN This Just InMany say they are encouraged by Mayor Christopher Louras recent decision to form a group of...

Research Institution:
AbstractThis Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) Phase II research project is to develop an improved magneto-optical (MO) visualizer based on a laser-scanning polarimeter and a MO imaging film (MOIF) utilizing surface plasmon resonance. In Phase I, the feasibility of substantial improvements in spatial and magnetic field resolutions and imaging bandwidth over existing methods were demonstrated. In Phase II, the MO material quality and sensor design will be further optimized. The visualizer will be adapted to maximize the many advantages offered by the improved MOIF material. Software will be developed to provide automatic system control and conversion of the acquired image into the quantitative spatial magnetic field distribution. The capabilities of the prototype systems and sensors will be evaluated in terms of magnetic field resolution, spatial resolution and speed through the imaging of electrical current patterns and data storage devices. Commercial market needs include sensors, instruments and systems for improved magnetic field imaging. Applications include magnetic character reading, magnetic code reading for security, superconductor research, spin valve and magnetic RAM research and manufacturing, integrated circuit electrical current imaging, structural composite stress imaging using magnetic and magnetostrictive materials, flaw detection in metals, biomedical tagging and identification of cancer and other cells, research and testing of MEMS actuators and devices.

I picked indigo because I was impressed by the beautiful rooms that I saw from tripadvisor. I am not disappointed with the room. I got a premium Pearl Bed Suite (no upgrade unfortunately) with a large comfy bed, sitting area with bed day, a small sitting out area on the ground (garden as such). The closet and bathroom areas are very big. You won't feel crowded if you come with a family. The staff are extremely helpful and nice. I was lucky to be treated by Honey who greeted me at the airport and showed me the room. Staff at the reception, poolside and Tin Mine are all great. The minor things to make it perfect include a quick show around the resort on the golf car, some cleaning and maintenance to be made around the resort area. I have to particularly mention I got pampered for a 10 minutes head, neck and shoulder Thai massage at the pool which was free and most of my request for the room was entertained. The hotel is a bit far from the town and patong, it operates shuttle bus with quite a charge. However, it is well connected with the beach with lots of good restaurants and local shops just outside. To me, Indigo Pearl is on my recommended list.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- Style and distinction - Historic detail fuses with chic industrial elegance. A 5 Star Luxury Design Resort touching Nai Yang Beach, Phuket. The Indigo Pearl resort experience is an encounter with Phuket's collective imagination - a gathering of intriguing details, re-envisioned through imaginative design. Architecture inspired by Phuket's tin mining past. The hotel decor evokes a Thai factory of a century ago. A landscape overflowing with surprises: the postmodern transformation of a mature plantation, spiced with modern sculpture and found industrial art. Luxury, comfort and service surpasses expectations. ... more less
- Reservation Options:
- TripAdvisor is proud to partner with Hotels.com, Booking.com, Expedia, Agoda, Hotwire, HotelTravel.com, Priceline, Travelocity, Ctrip TA, Odigeo and Jetsetter so you can book your Indigo Pearl reservations with confidence. We help millions of travelers each month to find the perfect hotel for both vacation and business trips, always with the best discounts and special offers.

When I think about the TOJ varsity, the first thing that pops up is that iconic image of that red toj0 on the rooftop. It's the strong shoulder and the colourway. It's the sort of thing that you need to be young (or at least young at heart) and cocky to wear. And that's awesome.post #17090 of 546983/17/12 at 6:38am
I think the look of the latest varsity incarnation is basically perfect, though as someone suggested previously instead of reversible I'd prefer the standard sateen lining. Although when you mentioned something weird/edgy for the new varsity that definitely piqued my interest. Can't imagine what that might mean though. lolpost #17091 of 546983/17/12 at 6:42am

^What I feel too. That strong squared off shoulder that IMO is hard to get with a raglan(which still looks good), but that shoulder and the long arms is something else. But I personally want something in all black, buttons instead of zippers, and set in sleeves. I think I'd wear it with trousers more than denim.post #17092 of 546983/17/12 at 7:27am

Tried to dream up a couple things, zipped cuffs, t3-like vertical seams down to ribbing or asymmetric zip/snap but they just seem like the contrived riffs on a classic.
i like the more understated colorways, current gen black/black with digi camo liner was just a simple badass look and will be tough to beat. for colors I like the gingham or oxford lining from the toj0/bball over the sateen, looks wise, and i like a maroon or navy body with tan sleeves though, maybe a little plain/preppy.
what about going back to the set-in sleeve with a glen plaid, houndstooth or herringbone wool? might be more of a winter cut for fw12.

Would love to see a return of the Toj0 style varsity. Potentially with a zip option as well as buttons. Although the Toj1 is amazing for some reason I though I just prefer the set-in sleeves as opposed to the raglan.
Also, would definitely cop a suede baseball if they became available - hopefully out of a lighter weight suede if possible. The last one was fantastic, but a bit heavy for the summer months. I think blue was my favourite colour of the last version. Again, choice of zip or buttons for this might be a good option too. Saying that a zip option might look a bit like a bomber jacket, but that might be cool too.post #17095 of 546983/17/12 at 9:05am

As far as non-standard ideas go, I saw a varsity with toggles that looked pretty good. The rest of the jacket was nowhere near the quality of ToJ, but the toggles were a feature that stood out and looked solid.post #17099 of 546983/17/12 at 11:16am

It sounds boring but solid fit+high quality material+muted (Because I hate the word timeless) details = Traditional ToJ.
Honestly even a remaking of ToJ0 would work for me.
Although We can use some ToJ Logo on our chest
