Incarnating Kripke's Skepticism About Meaning

Although Kripke's skepticism leads to the conclusion that meaning does not exist, his argument relies upon the supposition that more than one interpretation of words is consistent with linguistic evidence. Relying solely on metaphors, he assumes that there is a multiplicity of possible interpretations without providing any strict proof. In his book The Taming of the True, Neil Tennant pointed out that there are serious obstacles to this thesis and concluded that the skeptic's nonstandard interpretations are "will o' wisps." In this paper, contra Tennant, I demonstrate how to construct alternative interpretations of the language of algebra. These constructed interpretations avoid Tennant's objections and are shown to be interdefinable with the standard interpretation. Kripke's skepticism is, as it were, an incarnate demon. In contrast, it is currently uncertain whether the same technique is generally applicable to the construction of an alternative interpretation of natural language. However, the reinterpretation of those aspects of natural language that directly relate to numbers seems to be a promising candidate for the development of nonstandard interpretations of natural language.

Try The Emotion Code here - release trapped emotions so the body can heal itself.

Ms. Z, I am very much interested.
My name is Andrew, I'm 32. Have had issues with my health for quite a few years.
Thanks :-)
Anonymous Coward 4428411
The following were found and released:
age 28
age 26
Psychic trauma
worthless / wishy washy
age 24
age 30
taken for granted
age 26
age 18
age 23
age 23
Psychic trauma
unworthy / panic
age 23
age 19
The ages can be off a year or two.
The emotions on the Emotion Code chart are not the only emotions that can be trapped. If it does not resonate that you had that exact emotion, the one listed may have the next closest vibration to the actual emotion - such as
worthless & useless, or
humiliation & embarrassment.
Even if the age is off, or the exact emotion is off, that ball of energy was released...
I don't know what will happen, but our goal is always to balance the body as much as possible, so the body's natural healing ability can take over.
-------- A Resonance is not the same as a trapped emotion. If you were to strike a bell with a hammer, it would "ring" for a while. If you came back some time later, you might not hear the bell ringing anymore. But if you put a more precises instrument up to the bell, you might detect that it was still resonating from the blow you gave it. This is similar to how a resonance operates in the body.
-----Psychic Trauma - When 2 emotions are felt simultaneously, they can become trapped into one ball of energy
This is all your body wanted to release at this time, it needs to process.
"Doing The Emotion Code is like doing surgery on the energy body. We are literally looking for "malignant" or harmful energies that need to be removed, then we remove them, and the energy body has to heal and reorganize or regain it's balance. If you were to do actual surgery to have a tumor removed, you would expect to have at least a few days of downtime afterward. Your surgeon would also likely tell you what to expect during this healing time, and he or she would also advise you to get extra rest in order to allow the body to heal. The advice after a session with The Emotion Code is just about the same! Be aware that if you feel out of sorts, have changes in your sleeping pattern, vivid dreams or emotional ups and downs, this is totally normal! Drink lots of water, eat healthy and get lots of rest, and let your energy body heal itself. You may not notice anything weird or negative, you might just feel great, but it's better to be aware just in case."
Give it a few days and let me know how you are feeling.
Feedback is always appreciated, thanks!
edit: I did find that some of these emotions that were released were contributing to your health issues
Thanks MsZ!
I did notice that this past weekend I was extremely tired, I think it must have had to do with the release of these emotions. Will keep you updated on any physical changes.

The Dothan police department is saying thank you to those who pounded the pavement in their "trot with swat" event.
The 5 and 10-k race on Saturday raised money for training and new equipment.
Proceeds will also be used for anything else the swat team needs.
"It was a wonderful success and we just want to thank everyone in the community who came out, volunteered participated as a runner or was just there to cheer somebody on." Dothan Police Sergeant Rachel David said.
If you missed out on the race this past weekend, don't worry.
The Dothan police department hosts trot with swat every year.

For some time now I've been unable to download comments to messages posted after 10/24/2012.
When I try to sync the messages download, but the comments don't, and I get an error message saying that the server doesn't allow comments to be downloaded. The details are as follows:

I thought that this was a problem with Livejournal, but I'm told that the software is working for others. As far as I know I have the latest version, the one that was hacked after official development stopped.
I've tried renaming the archive and starting again, but that just got me the same result - all messages downloaded, but comments stopped in 2012.
Anyone know what's wrong?

I just downloaded LJ Archive after I started getting the cold sweats about losing my old journal entries. I haven't tried to do this for a few years, so I really like the look of the new program!
My only concern is that I get the following sync error, which stops me from downloading anything. It looks like I could successfully download when I deselected "comments," so I guess it's a comment problem, but I'd like to download comments if I can.
Any help?

Hi, I mostly use InsaneJournal these days, but they moved servers a few weeks ago and ever since then I've found that LJArchive isn't able to connect to IJ to back up my journal. I've tried creating a new archive file but it still doesn't work. Am I being really stupid, or is there a way around this? I'm using version 0.9.7 which seems to be the latest version. This is the error message that comes up when I open LJArchive:

Wondering if the host decided it was taking too long and blew up or something. Personally I would LIKE to be able to archive my LJ; I do have older backups, maybe it could be set to a more recent string or something?
I see a lot of posts like this. I see no indication whatsoever that anybody knows what to do about them, intends to do anything about them, or has done anything about them. Do any of the folks involved with the construction of this program read this community?

I recently installed the updated version of LJ Archive (thank you, btw!) and it works like a charm. Now I have a question about exporting.

|Hey, I joined this community to ask a question and the question is this: If I were too delete my Livejournal, would the ljArchive program still keep/archive/save my entries? In other words, will my old LJ still be archived if there is no longer a journal on livejournal.com to sync from? I'd like to keep them on my computer through the program but I'm unsure what deletion would do. I had planned on using ljArchive to keep all my old entries on my hard drive, and then deleting my LJ from the internet and starting fresh, with a new blog. I couldn't find the answer to this anywhere, so I turn to you. Thanks in advance for any answers you can provide.

know your vectors and get your math up to at least pass the calc / linear algebra tests, you'll forget that stuff after those classes anyways, but vectors you will need to know for just about the rest of the course.
it's a good school.

be ready to spend all your time at full sail or doing full sail work and have no money. If you get living expense checks, put aside your rent and bill money for the duration(sometimes 3 months or more) so you dont end up not having rent one month.
If youre gonna learn c++, data structures, pointers, classes are some things you want to look into. Other than that...I hope you like mortal kombat.
Need any other info PM me

My personal suggestion is to go to a real 4-year school and get a well-rounded education that will set you up in life to be a better worker and contributor to society, instead of a strong specialization in developing games.

I know people from Full Sail and DigiPen are plenty, plenty qualified to get excellent jobs in the industry (and most of them do). I also know people who, if hired, would probably be a massive burden on the unfortunate company who hired them. The quality of the education notwithstanding (that is another subject for discussion), a degree from either of these schools is still a gamble. Less so than other newer and less-established game development schools, but there are still places out there that have been bitten by underqualified graduates from places like Full Sail and DigiPen and aren't so keen on trying again.

Quote:Of course, but that goes for other schools too, like, say, MIT. I interviewed a supposed "top student" from MIT some while ago and it was clear in the first 5 minutes that he hadn't learned anying; he had just memorized answers for his exams in order to ace them.

That's why we (and other companies) test for skills in an interview setting, and ignore what school they went to (or indeed whether they went to school). We only care that you posses the necessary skills; it doesn't matter how you obtained them.

In the end, it doesnt even matter if you have a degree. Sure it helps you get an interview. But if you dont have a degree and you can do anything I can and more, who do you think youd want to hire. I know who id hire.
Get any degree you want, hell go to devry *cough* as long as you put in the effort and have the knowledge when your done...youre golden.

But I believe that there is a deeper problem, big companies have a resume screening process, and then the resumes for the best candidates are forwarded to the internal studios (In order to keep up with the volume of applicants). Based on what I heard this year at GDC some recruiters have had bad experiences with hires from Full Sail/Digipen (which could happen to any other school), so during the screening process they filter those candidates out, and the studios probably do not even get to see the resumes.
The other problem is the education perception, the education at game oriented schools is too narrow/focused, not enough exposure to different topics (i.e. Databases, Automata theory, Compiler Construction, Networking, Programming Languages), and there is the perception that a CS degree has more weight than a game degree because of this.
Getting a degree is very important though (being from Digipen, Full Sail, MIT, or Devry), and you will be getting out of your education what you put in. At the end if you are good and passionate you will find a job in a good studio regardless which school you went to.

There's the reputation of being a trade school, regardless of whether they taught you anything good or not for the particular gamedev industry, you will get screwed over in the resume screenings.
Some accredited Universtities are starting to introduce GameDev as a Major now, as this becomes more common the trade schools will be further devalued.
Theres also the 'Everyone wants to be a RockStar!' phenomenon, commercials for gamedev tradeschools are becoming quite common on TV. After seeing a few of those I definetly wouldn't want to attend one, there is going to be far too much competition from all the kids who want to make games, regardless of their and your actual skill. It is all too likely that most of these students will find that their market is saturated, and that they lack a more genaralized computer degree to find jobs in other areas.

They dont teach you a narrow focus. Sure it may be narrower then other CS degrees. But we can still go out and do database programming, learn other languages, networking, whatever. I have fellow grads in the defense industry(such as myself), medical industry, designing operating systems, game company. Its not what they teach you...its what you learn. I can not stress that enough.
Sure, people screen out full sail grads. They were left with a bad taste from one or two students who escaped without learning a thing. They will screen us out. That happens with every school. You get a student from UCF who comes out with a degree but knows nothing, youre gonna look at the next guy with different eyes.
People I have spoken to who get CS degrees, the biggest complaint "Their education was so broad they didnt feel they got to involved in one thing" They feel they learned a little bit about a ton of things. I learned a ton of stuff about fewer things. Who do you want workin for you, the guy who can start up all the machines in the workshop and shut em all down. Or the guy who can work a drill press but cant tell a circular saw from a belt sander.
I was taught how to learn quickly and adapt to what I need. I learn and implement. I know how to code really well, anything I dont know is a matter of research and/or syntax.
Ive had this convo a few times. I believe in one thing. You are what you learn not what you are taught. I dont care where you went to school, trade school, community college, UCF...if you do your part, thats all that matters.
The only sad thing that you can not fully control, is who looks at your resume and why. Sure you may get tossed to the trash if your resume mentions Digipen or Full Sail. It hapened to me a few times, more than that even. I kept at it, did my part to impress people, now I make more money than I wouldve at any of those other jobs. You might get pushed aside, but not everyone feels the same way. Keep pushing and eventually one door will open.

as long as you can learn, you don't need Full Sail
better off going to a normal University where at least you will be taken seriously (more then Full Sail at least) on the resume screening process
besides, you'll meet more girls there

Thanks alot for all the replays,
Keep em comming.. :)
If you say so. I'm just about to graduate from Digipen. I was at Northwestern University for 2 years before coming here, and I went to Oklahoma State Univ. during high school.
Lets start with... state schools are a joke. I could have aced any of those classes blindfolded.
Northwestern, on the other hand, is an excellent school for robots. I met way too many people that aced their SAT/ACT's but were dumb as a box of rocks. The reason I left was the school did not cater to the amount of experience that is required to be reasonably good at programming. I was taking senior/grad. level classes as a sophomore and nobody had ever taught me how to do so much as create a windows application. They suggested I not take more than one computer science class per quarter because "they were so difficult." So I got to take some cognitive science, chemistry, and some other classes that I will never use in my life. Furthermore, they start you off learning scheme/lisp and other languages (none of which are used near as often as C/C++). [and there were a lot of rich kids with drug habits].
So now I'm here. Most of the people are taking 20-22+ credit hours per semester and rarely leave the school. 6-7 classes per semester is a bitch, but at least 4 of them are computer science, at least 1 math or physics, and then an art or english class to satisfy the college accreditation (yeah, its a real college).
I'm sure everything I've heard is horribly biased, but Digipen is almost definately a better school if you want to learn how to cope in the industry. It also helps to have artists from the 3d animation program give you models and other art to program with.
I'll try not to keep this too long, but I do have to give you my opinion. If you are absolutely sure you want to program games for a living, go to digipen. Once you graduate (mmmm... my class started with 200+, now its down to less than 50 and nobody has graduated yet) you will most likely be a step up on everybody getting out of college. But once you get into the industry, you will realize that you could program boring databases for 3x the pay.
If you are still deciding, I would suggest going to a state school, saving yourself the money and learning everything there is to know on your own using the internets. Good luck.

Interviews are usually decided by company recruiters (unless it's a small company), and these people know what to look for in resumes and when pre-screening candidates. They look for the right attitude and at least some competencies and are usually able to find a few "red flags" in order to select a few good candidates for tech/manager interviews.
In other words, in many cases your knowledge AND your background are equally important, however, you'll have a VERY HARD time finding a job without actually having a solid programming knowledge base. If you simply have a..."non-conventional" background but a good knowledge base you may not have an easy time getting an interview, but at least you'll have the knowledge to get a job, you might just have to work a little harder to get an interview.
And for anyone that is yet to begin post-secondary education. You are definately going to want to pay attention in math class. It's just as important as being able to program.

What you are going to want during your years at university and beyond is to forge relationships with other people in your program (either friends, school partners, just aquaintances who chat sometimes), and if you can, people you know in the industry.
Contacts will help you out a lot, especially if you have the knowledge base to back up any referals or recommendations. In fact, getting refered is one of the best ways to break into the industry.

For example, if you want to be a game programmer, you start learning asm,C,C++ some java and others. Now C/C++ is the only language used to make good engines. So if you to a university that will focus on teaching you java and nothing else, you will have to do that extra work to be good at C/C++.

Ok...stoopid me, I tested a homebrew chip on an Xbox, worked, and decided to yank it out...yes I know...well after inspecting the board, 4 traces were lifted along with some pads. I tried to fix the traces. It's marked in blue in the picture. I'm not sure if it's good or not. Using a multimeter, how would I go about seeing if it was a solid connect or not. Also, point A16 goes through some sort of resistor?, is it okay not to go through that way? Is there any place on top of the board I can use, instead of the points on the bottom? To bypass the lifted traces. After I install back the chip, I get the GREEN/RED flashing. Fixable? Or am I just FUBAR.
Need Some Help...

I have only recently started using wordpress as i was an avid joomla user until they started messing with it. I have a simple quiestion but the answers and solutions out there seem to be overkill for what i need.
Basically i have my main site blog that i post to each day. I have set up 50 more wordpress blogs and all i want to do is post my blog posts to all 50 once i save to my main blog.
In summary.
1. Create a post on my main blog
2. On save it automatically posts to my 50 other blogs.
All the sites are on different domains also
Many of the solutions are expensive or just too complicated for my needs.
Any ideas?
thanks Mark Holland

I have an Ubuntu 8.04.4 server with an md RAID5 consisting of 9 drives. While transferring a large amount of data to it (through vsftpd) I noticed very bad transfer speed fluctuation.
For example during the transfer of a 20GB archive, every couple of 100MB, the transfer would completely halt for several seconds. Then it would go back up to ~55MB/s. And this would repeat over and over again; leaving me with an overall transfer speed of like 10MB/s.
The server is on the same 1Gb LAN as the machine I am working on, so I assume the LAN is not the problem.
I have observed this behavior on this server several times in the past whenever I have to transfer large data volumes (over 200MB).
Looking at the output of
top or our Cacti graphs did not give me any indication to what might cause this issue.
Any idea on how to diagnose an issue like this would be appreciated.

This seminar is open to the public.
[ Seminar Website ]
Transnationalism is the subject of a growing—but fragmented—body of scholarship because many researchers who study businesses, social movements, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), migrants, or artistic and cultural production that crosses borders do not see themselves as part of the same conversation. This seminar attempts to bridge these gaps in a few ways: first by identifying the common themes, structures, ideas, and institutions that characterize transnational social dynamics and processes in different arenas, and second by rethinking conventional notions about identity, citizenship, community, and society in response.
In 2015–2016, the seminar focuses on the theme of "global social protection." In a world where there are an estimated 232 million migrants, where and how are people on the move protected and provided for? What new institutional arrangements are emerging to ensure social protections and provisions outside the framework of the nation-state? What does it mean to be a global citizen or to participate in a global civil society? What role do institutions like universities, the media, NGOs, and museums play in creating global citizens and how do they change what they do in response?
Faculty and graduate students from Harvard as well as other Boston-area institutions are invited to present their ongoing research. We also host a working group which meets before the seminar where members are invited to present their work in progress in a more informal setting. Both are open to the public. The seminar is co-chaired by Jocelyn Viterna, associate professor of sociology, Harvard University, and Peggy Levitt, professor of sociology, Wellesley College.
Peggy Levitt
Associate. Chair; Professor of Sociology, Department of Sociology, Wellesley College.
Jocelyn Viterna

Awesome productMy beautician uses this product for skin whitening facials. The result is too good for me just after one time use. Even people with dark skin color have seen benefits with this product. Initially your tanned skin will peel off and there may be light irritation in those areas, (where your skin is very much tanned). As time goes by your skin will turn a lighter shade and you'll gain an extra tone to your skin. After this facial my pimple marks vanished overnight and i got much better result.

flawlessits result is amazing and the main point is it stays for a long time. i am a regular user to this product. i used to go out in sun daily as em a working women. this product make me feel confident in interacting with my superiors and subordinates. its result stays for one month than other kits. its d same as written 'whitening' kit which makes u glow in the party. but this alone wont do anything if dere is internal deficiency in ur body. so eat fruits, drink juice, stay happy is the half job done :) other half will surely b done by thi product. so i will conclude here wid both the thumbs up yee… (Expand)

Spicing up the suburbs

Lots of excitement at one Orthodox synagogue in London at Rosh Hashanah where a man arrived for evening prayers to deliver a rather unseasonal greeting. Mounting the bimah, he begun to accuse a fellow worshipper of having an affair with his wife.
He was quickly ushered out by the rabbi, leaving others to dine out on the tale over the following days.

OWASSO, Okla. (AP) - Owasso police are investigating the death of a 14-year-old boy who was killed after being struck by three vehicles as he tried to cross U.S. 169 on foot.
Owasso police officer Tracy Townsend says the incident occurred on the highway about 7 p.m. Sunday as at least two juveniles tried to cross the highway. The teen's name wasn't immediately released.
Townsend says police are searching for the third driver, who reportedly left the scene in a gray or silver Porsche sports car.

The new company, Sinopec Oilfield Service Corp., is providing oilfield services not only in China, but also in international markets such as North America, Middle East, Africa, Central Asia and South East Asia.
By YVONNE LEE
HONG KONG -- State-owned China Petrochemical Corp., also known as
Sinopec Group, has set up a new oilfield service company in
Beijing as it seeks to tap the rise in Chinese and overseas
exploration and production activities.
Exploration and production companies hire oilfield service
providers to perform specialized tasks required to extract oil
and gas from the ground.
China, the world's largest energy consumer, is increasingly
demanding more such services to extract resources from domestic
and overseas projects.
The new company, Sinopec Oilfield Service Corp., is
providing oilfield services not only in China, but also in
international markets such as North America, Middle East,
Africa, Central Asia and South East Asia. This will help its
parent gain a further foothold in the oilfield services market,
strengthening its competitive edge in China as well as
At present, China's oilfield services market is dominated by
the three largest oil giants including Sinopec, China National
Petroleum Corp. and China National Offshore Oil Corp., which
account for over 80% of the market share, with the remaining
divided between 1,200 domestic oilfield services providers
including Anton Oilfield Services Group.
Sinopec Oilfield Service Corp. was set up in Beijing with total
fixed assets of 76.6 billion yuan (US$12.2 billion) through the
restructuring of Sinopec Group's oilfield engineering firms,
Sinopec Group said in a statement.
The new unit is estimated to receive CNY95 billion of
revenue this year. It has already chalked up 480 contracts in
43 countries worth US$14.2 billion.
Sinopec Group has been ramping up efforts to expand overseas
ever since Chairman Fu Chengyu joined the refining giant last year after
leaving Cnooc Ltd., a company with a history of making
aggressive moves outside China.

The male equivalent of a slut.
"Wow, Jacob is such a manwhore."
by Anon. May 08, 2003
A Manwhore is a male that has several key attributes. A typically young (18-25)male who dresses in designer clothing, carries multiple cellphones, has become a master of manipulating women, and makes it his personal mission to sleep with as many different women as possible qualifies as a manwhore. He also has virtually no emmotional attachment to any of his victims. The reputaion of manwhore makes gaining new potential victims somewhat difficult, so most manwhores are forced to switch territories and stomping grounds frequently. However, even in familair enviornments, many manwhores can continue to get laid by playing the "im misunderstood, or "Im just pissed and acting out over a bad breakup" card. A true master in both deception and cunning, a manwhore is any "good girls" worst nightmare come true.

A sexually active, promiscuous, younger man who often wears alot of flashy jewelery, has greased down, or spiked up hair and keeps a 'chicktionary'. He is well known at most health clinics and may have an STD named after him in his honour. He knows many girls but will often mix up or forget thier names. He will commonly have one or more illegitimate children (though not always, especially in the amateur stage) and his relation with other men is often strained, due to past encounters with girlfriends or wives.

I was so surprised at how wonderful this was! One might glance over the ingredient list and think it is bland but it is actually quite flavorful! Thanks for this awesome recipe Mommyof 2!
Yummy, yummy! Tried this the other night and everyone just raved. I used smoked cheddar and it almost had the taste of bacon added! Is also wonderful cold!

Budget your way to a more affordable education
Benjamin Franklin once said nothing is certain but death and taxes. We'd like to amend that list by adding a modern certainty: college costs will always go up. But that doesn't mean getting an education results in going broke. Stay smart, spend less, and start budgeting. Here's how:

How you can save 10% on the cost of college
Money can't buy happiness. But it can buy you an education. And a house. And a really nice vacation. That's why we think spending less and saving more throughout college is an integral part of doing life the right way: affordably. However, when high college costs and poor financial planning combine, money becomes a barrier between students and their future–a barrier we're committed to busting down. Thankfully SimpleTuition can help you:
Qualify for more financial aid
TuitionCoach can help you qualify for thousands of dollars in additional financial aid by coaching you and your family to structure your finances correctly. You already have a need. We'll teach you how to prove it on paper.
- Typical savings: as much as $3,000 per year
The College Cost Adjuster helps you see what college really costs. You don't have to compare schools by their sticker price anymore. Instead you can compare up to three schools at once and see what each will cost after financial aid and the cost of student loans. This will help you pick a school you can actually afford.
- Typical savings: as much as $2,000 per year
SimpleTuition's award-winning student loan comparison tool often saves students like you–and their families–several thousand dollars per year in borrowing costs by displaying the cost differences among private lenders. We reveal the nitty-gritty so you don't have to sift through the fine print all on your own. SimpleTuition can also help you evaluate the costs and benefits of consolidating your student debt, saving you even more.
- Typical savings: as much as $5,000 per year (or more)
Our Textbook Comparison Center lets you compare the cost of new, used, or electronic copies of books, helping you find prices you can afford. We'll even search rental copies. There's millions of books available and you could save up to 90% on each of them. The best part? There's no longer a need to leave your campus bookstore feeling robbed. Then at the end of the semester use our service to sell your books and get some of that money back.
- Typical savings: as much as $500 per year
- For all you graduating seniors out there, or post-grads who still have mountains of student check, check out PayBackSmarter, a free-to-use website that helps you harness the power of interest to pay your loans back faster. Learn about payment plans, consolidation, and the power of extra payments to get out of debt and on with life.
- If you're planning to take the ACT, SAT, GRE, GMAT, LSAT, or MCAT, and want help studying, check out our Test Prep Comparison Center. We compare 20,000+ online and in-person test prep courses then discount those courses up to 25%. You can finally improve your scores affordably.
- SmarterBank is an online checking account that comes with all the free bells and whistles you've come to expect. But what makes us different is our unique SmarterBucks rewards program, which earns you rewards on the money you're already spending–and that money is used to make extra payments on your student loans.
These are estimates. We are confident in our ability to help you save at these levels, but individual experiences will vary. And if a penny saved is a penny earned, what does that mean about the value of a dollar? Simple. Every one you don't have to borrow is one you don't have to pay back later with interest.

5 of the World's Weirdest Scholarships
While most scholarships are based on academic merit and well-written personal statements, some reward students for more…non-traditional qualities or skills. Like being able to design a tuxedo out of duct tape. Check out that and more crazy scholarships below:
- The Duck Tape® Stuck at Prom Contest: Their website describes this contest plainly enough: "The Stuck at Prom® Scholarship Contest challenges students to create and accessorize their prom outfits with duct tape, then wear them to prom for a chance to win scholarship cash prizes." At least you won't have to wear a proper tuxedo or spend hundreds of dollars on a dress you'll only wear once.
- The Chick and Sophie Major Memorial Duck Calling Contest: High School seniors may compete for college scholarships totaling $4,250. What do they have to do? You guessed it: impersonate a duck.
- Klingon Language Institute: The Kor Memorial Scholarship: According to their website: "The purpose of the Kor Memorial Scholarship is to recognize and encourage scholarship in fields of language study. Familiarity with Klingon or other constructed languages is not required, however creative and innovative applicants are preferred." You'll probably have better luck if you're a Star Trek fan, too.
- Tall Clubs International Scholarship for Tall People: While being tall can make it uncomfortable to sit in economy class on crowded airplanes, it will also help you qualify for a $1000 scholarship. Women who are 5'10″ or taller, and men who are at least 6'2″, and are both under 21 and attending their first year of college can apply.
- Collegiate Inventors Competition: Invent something cool? Win up to $25,000 for college. This isn't about grades. It's about turning good ideas into brilliant products.

Why Your College is so Expensive
Here's a new must-read for anyone who cares why their tuition bill keeps getting fatter: Larry Abramson on why college is so expensive. Produced for NPR and read on All Things Considered, the article is an interesting analysis on why college prices are rising faster than inflation. Way faster, meaning incomes can't keep up. Read the full article to get the skinny, but for you impatient types here's the gist:
In a global economy, colleges compete for talent–and not just domestically. To get and keep the best professors, researchers, and engineers, colleges have to pay more since competition has suddenly gone global. And a high salary doesn't cut it anymore. People need health insurance, retirement plans, and other benefits.
There's more financial aid than ever, which could be a bad thing? Well that just depends on how you look at it. An increase in financial aid means an increase in demand for education. Economics says increased demand equals increased cost. If less people could go to college, institutions would be forced to streamline and cut costs. On the other hand, who really wants less financial aid?
And, you know, it's a pretty crappy economy. That means lots of unemployment, tighter credit lines, and fewer raises, which increases the impact of higher tuition prices. If prices are rising and incomes aren't there to match it, a money gap develops, meaning school might not just be expensive anymore. It might have moved into a whole new category: unaffordable.

... did we get approval on may 2? Cant remember. There was hardly a press release. Barely a mention of the fact. Did the bloomberg interview get spread to the masses by being inserted in yahoo news? Are there milestone payments? I have to admit Im feeling pretty disappointed with management right now. It seems like everyone cashed in their options and went on vacation. It would have been nice to have left someone in the office to appease new, curios and old investors. Now Im sure that some of you will say they deserve their cash and they have better things to do, and I get that, but this is a bit of a game and its sad to see such deterioration in pps because they cant get it together to give a couple of public updates. Thats all. Hire a PR firm with all that cash they just made.
Ask and ye shall receive. Just kidding. I'm not that arrogant. Feeling much better though. Looking forward to next week.
Can't help but agree.The impression management is giving is like saying "We got ours, tough darts for the rest of you!"Pretty much of a disregard for the little people who helped fund them and were completely neglected when the rewards were passed out.
WTF are you guys talking about? They were pre-planned sales. The shorts are in full force until they feel can go long. Relax!
While I share your frustration, I don't think this is a total disregard for the individual investor. I feel like PLX is getting itself together and is not saying anything until there is something very significant to say. They do not get involved with the daily stock fluctuations. If you believe in them, then buy more when the stock price goes down. They did not hype before FDA approval and they will not hype after FDA approval. They stick to the same story, that they have a very valuable technology.Currently the market cap of the company is very similar to what it was years ago before the Pfizer relationship and before FDA approval. Back then the idea of making proteins cheaply from plants was a dream. Now its a reality. Somehow there will be a big payday. PLX will not hype the stock price right now. The technology will ultimately speak for itself. Be patient. Everything they have said publicly up until now has been proven true.
I agree but this company never hypes itself. I hope that news will come out as Pfizer unveils itsmarketing strategy. For now the company seems content with a lower stock price. The time may come to push it higher. Maybe Pfizer is picking up shares cheap.
with all the bad feeling we all have we must remember that management has to be evaluated based on performance and I feel the recent FDA approval corrected to me all bad feeling I had previously... therefore we just have to wait and see....

Investigation of Switching Frequency Variations and EMI Properties in Self-Oscillating Class D Amplifiers
Class D audio amplifiers have gained significant influence in sound reproduction due to their high efficiency. One of the most commonly used control methods in these amplifiers is self-oscillation. A parameter of key interest in self-oscillating amplifiers is the switching frequency, which is known for its variation. Knowledge of switching frequency variations is of great importance with respect to electromagnetic interference (EMI). This paper will investigate, whether the switching frequency is depended on modulation index and audio reference frequency. Validation is done using simulations, and the results are compared with measurements performed on a 50 W prototype amplifier. The switching frequency is tracked through accurate spectrum measurements, and very good compliance with simulation results are observed.

Re: Bisciotti: We won't take Suggs' money!
I would like to show respect to Steve Bisciotti. He called out Terrell Suggs, personally, when Suggs had that down year following his report to camp out of shape. Suggs has since kept his word and Bisciotti has since stuck by Suggs."When questioned, the Elders explained that they were in search of magical powers. However, they're actually searching for the whereabouts of a certain ring. This ring is a legendary treasure that long ago was known to exist"

Hey guys,
I searched the internet but couldn't find a solution… How do you set the product image for a product post in the YAK gallery add-on correctly? It isn't shown in the tutorial video on the a filly ate it website. I set the featured image, but on my shop site (with my [yak_gallery tag="yak_gallery1" lightbox="off" size="thumbnail" cols="4"]) there are no pictures in the product table. Other than that, the product information is displayed correctly.
Maybe some incompatibility with WP 3.5? I don't have to have any lightbox installed, do I? Is it maybe just me doing something wrong on the post edit page?
I am stuck and I can't find enough documentation out there (the YAK PDF doesn't help either!). Any help is greatly appreciated!

Aug. 20 (Bloomberg) -- Staples Inc. plans to shut about 140 stores in North America this year as the office-supply retailer responds to online competition that has hurt sales.
Staples shut 80 outlets in the region in the first half, the Framingham, Massachusetts-based company said in a statement today. Net income in the fiscal second quarter through Aug. 2 dropped 20 percent to $82 million as Staples spent $101 million on the sales-network cutback.
Expansion by web-based competitors such as Amazon.com Inc. has spurred reorganizations across the retail industry, including the merger of stationery suppliers Office Depot Inc. with OfficeMax Inc. Staples outlined plans in March to shut as many as 225 stores in North America through 2015, amounting to 12 percent of its outlets in the region, and to reduce costs by as much as $500 million.
"We have more work to do to stabilize our retail business, and we're taking action to improve customer traffic, reduce expenses and close underperforming stores," Chief Executive Officer Ron Sargent said in today's statement.
Second-quarter revenue fell 1.8 percent to $5.22 billion, reduced in part by earlier shutdowns of outlets and currency effects, Staples said. North American online revenue increased 8 percent. Annualized cost savings so far this fiscal year totaled $150 million.

We present our source of polarization entangled photons, which consist of orthogonally polarized and collinear parametric down converted photons sent to the same input of a nonpolarizing beam splitter. We show that a too straightforward characterization of the quantum state cannot account for all the experimental observations, in particular for the behavior of the doublecounts, which are the coincidences produced whenever both photons are dispatched by the beam splitter to the same measuring station (either Alice or Bob). We argue that in order to account for all observations, the state has to be entangled in polarization before the non-polarizing beam splitter, and we discuss the intriguing and nevertheless essential role of the time-compensation required to obtain such a polarization entanglement.

I have researched this question for days and can not locate a good answer. It could be a mathematical object that is defined by an axiom as Euclid or Hilbert. But if a curve is drawn between two points can it be should using only the rules of plane geometry that the curve is a "straight line"? If the curve is not a straight line then does it follow that the theorems that rely on such a construction will not necessarily be valid? BTW I am speaking of Euclidean geometry only.
Euclid didn't define "line" by an axiom; in one translation, he defined it as "breadthless length," which is the kind of definition that only helps you if you already know what a line is. Isaac has it right when he suggests that what's important about a line is what it does, not what it is. An alternative approach is to found Euclidean geometry on analytic geometry. Define the real number line, then the Cartesian coordinate system, then define a line to be the set of solutions of $ax+by+c=0$ for fixed $a,b,c$ with $a$ and $b$ not both zero.
I am not entirely sure what you are asking, so this is likely a partial answer at best.
In many high-school-level texts in the U.S., line is one of several basic terms that are not formally defined. For example, in UCSMP Geometry, 3rd ed. (© 2009 Wright Group/McGraw-Hill), the first lesson in the text has:
Shortly thereafter, the Point-Line-Plane Postulate states:
Basically, a line is described by its properties but not formally defined.
When I was in Grammar School, our mathematics teacher defined a straight line as: "The shortest connection between two points which, when extended to infinity in either direction can never intersect with itself." This definition has always worked for me.

Hooters could set up shop in Houma
Published: Sunday, April 8, 2007 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, April 7, 2007 at 10:06 p.m.
HOUMA -- Another chicken-wing restaurant could join the landscape in Houma, one where the waitresses wear distinctive T-shirts and orange shorts.
Theres a very good possibility a Hooters could open in Houma, a local official said, adding representatives of the chain have been scouting locations in the parish for some time now.
"They are looking for a place," said Terrebonne Parish Planning and Zoning Director Pat Gordon, "but they havent been able to find one yet."
Hooters of America Inc. is an Atlanta-based business with franchises in 46 states. In Louisiana, there are seven, one each in Lafayette, Bossier and West Monroe, and two each in the New Orleans area and Baton Rouge.
Joel Wood and Greg Gibson own franchise rights in the state, a spokesman at one of their stores said, and there have been talks of opening a Houma location.
Messages left at the Baton Rouge corporate office for the two men and regional store director Todd Dick were not immediately returned. Nor were calls left with Westerfelt Properties, the Houma real-estate firm that Gordon said has been helping scout properties for the restaurant.
They considered one spot on Martin Luther King Boulevard, but it was rejected because of the limited parking space available, Gordon said.
The first Hooters opened Oct. 4, 1983, in Clearwater, Fla. The first, like the ones that followed, boasted a casual beach theme complete with "oldies" jukebox music, televised sports and a menu that includes seafood, sandwiches, salads and spicy chicken wings.

By Roger Ebert
You may know that Bruges, Belgium, is pronounced "broozh," but I didn't, and the heroes of "In Bruges" certainly don't. They're Dublin hit- men, sent there by their boss for two weeks after a hit goes very wrong. One is a young hothead who sees no reason to be anywhere but Dublin; the other, older, gentler, more curious, buys a guidebook and announces: "Bruges is the best-preserved medieval city in Belgium!"
So it certainly seems. If the movie accomplished nothing else, it inspired in me an urgent desire to visit Bruges. But it accomplished a lot more than that. This film debut by the theater writer and director Martin McDonagh is an endlessly surprising, very dark, human comedy, with a plot that cannot be foreseen but only relished. Every once in a while you find a film like this, that seems to happen as it goes along, driven by the peculiarities of the characters.
Brendan Gleeson, with that noble shambles of a face and the heft of a boxer gone to seed, has the key role as Ken, one of two killers for hire. His traveling companion and unwilling roommate is Ray (Colin Farrell), who successfully whacked a priest in a Dublin confessional but tragically killed a little boy in the process. Before shooting the priest, he confessed to the sin he was about to commit. After accidentally killing the boy, he reads the notes the lad made for his own confession. You don't know whether to laugh or cry.
Ken and Ray work for Harry, apparently a Dublin crime lord, who for the first two thirds of the movie we hear only over the phone, until he materializes in Bruges and turns out to be a worried-looking Ralph Fiennes. He had the men hiding out in London, but that wasn't far enough away. Who would look for them in Bruges? Who would even look for Bruges? Killing the priest was business, but "blowing a kid's head off just isn't done."
The movie does an interesting thing with Bruges. It shows us a breathtakingly beautiful city, without ever seeming to be a travelogue. It uses the city as a way to develop the characters. When Ken wants to climb an old tower "for the view," Ray argues "why do I have to climb up there to see down here? I'm already down here." He is likewise unimpressed by glorious paintings, macabre sculptures and picturesque canals, but is thrilled as a kid when he comes upon a film being shot.
There he meets two fascinating characters: First he sees the fetching young blond Chloe (Clemence Poesy, who was Fleur Delacour in "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire"). Then he sees Jimmy (Jordan Prentice), a dwarf who figures in a dream sequence. He gets off on a bad footing with both, but eventually they're doing cocaine with a prostitute Jimmy picked up and have become friends, even though Ray keeps calling the dwarf a "midget" and having to be corrected.
Without dreaming of telling you what happens next, I will say it is not only ingenious but almost inevitable the way the screenplay brings all of these destinies together at one place and time. Along the way, there are times of great sadness and poignancy, times of abandon, times of goofiness, and that kind of humor that is really funny because it grows out of character and close observation. Farrell in particular hasn't been this good in a few films, perhaps because this time he's allowed to relax and be Irish. As for Gleeson, if you remember him in "The General," you know that nobody can play a more sympathetic bad guy.
Martin McDonagh is greatly respected in Ireland and England for his plays; his first film, a short named "Six Shoooter" starring Gleeson, won a 2006 Oscar. In his feature debut, "In Bruges," he has made a remarkable first film, as impressive in its own way as "House of Games," the first film by David Mamet, who McDonagh is sometimes compared with.
Yes, it's a "thriller," but one where the ending seems determined by character and upbringing rather than plot requirements. Two of the final deaths are, in fact, ethical choices. And the irony inspiring the second one has an undeniable logic, showing that even professional murderers have their feelings.
This movie is trying to kill these women, but they endure.
