text: Bech On Mars: John Updike Considers The Red PlanetCharlie Jane Anders12/15/08 6:30pmFiled to: Mars PornJohn Updike, Martian pornographerMarsspace pornSpaceBooksScience23EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink We've seen so many Mars images in recent years, our nearest neighbor might be starting to seem a tad familiar. Science fiction author John Updike aims to fix that, with some help from National Geographic. Updike has an essay in the new issue, all about the history of people studying Mars, from its mythology to its elliptical orbit and topography. Written in Updike's typically florid style, the essay talks about the pull Mars has exerted on the imaginations of humans, from the ancient Babylonians up to the present. There are some pretty cool revelations, like this one: Advertisement Advertisement One of the keenest eyed cartographers of the planet was Giovanni Schiaparelli, who employed the Italian word canali for perceived linear connections between presumed bodies of water. The word could have been translated as "channels," but "canals" caught the imagination of the public and in particular that of Percival Lowell, a rich Boston Brahmin who in 1893 took up the cause of the canals as artifacts of a Martian civilization. As an astronomer, Lowell was an amateur and an enthusiast but not a crank. He built his own observatory on a mesa near Flagstaff, Arizona, more than 7,000 feet high and, in his own words, "far from the smoke of men"; his drawings of Mars were regarded as superior to Schiaparelli's even by astronomers hostile to the Bostonian's theories. Lowell proposed that Mars was a dying planet whose highly intelligent inhabitants were combating the increasing desiccation of their globe with a system of irrigation canals that distributed and conserved the dwindling water stored in the polar caps.Did you know that Carl Sagan believed "polar bear-sized creatures" could be roaming the Martian surface, as late as 1965?Updike also takes in science fiction, from H.G. Wells to Edgar Rice Burroughs, with obvious relish, especially when he talks about virile humans mating with Martian maidens. He concludes by saying Mars isn't really as dead as we thought in the 1970s, now that we've seen how geographically active and varied it really is. Sponsored The accompanying illustrations, as you'd expect from NG, are compelling and fresh — there's a Mars gallery, but also a really nice interactive Mars timeline dating back to the Soviet Union's failed 1960 Mars probes, Marsnik and Marsnik 2.

Nice one, 26 episodes, and -rare thing- not one felt like a filler.
Story: 7/10
It's hard to actually evaluate story in sport anime. Well "normal sports" at least, as most of it will involve winning matches and competitions. But outside the simple "fight and get better" this one has a few good addiction. Instead of everlasting matches, the encounters are actually quite short, leaving lot of free time to develop the story and the characters personality. And the story is able to catch your attention without releasing it that soon.
A nearly closed club of kendo arises from it's ashes to climb the mountain of opponents that oppose it. Well maybe this is a little emphasized, but hey, surely they will face a few challenges!
The good mix of humor, deep thoughts and a few sad, or at least not happy, dramatic moments actually achieves a good result. Some tournaments, troubles -either small or big-, victories, losses, and a small part for romanticism take place during the story, in a sequence that jumps from a theme to another, and it's done so well that the watcher won't actually notice it so immediately.
Animation: 8/10
The characters are really good, not a single one that looks similar to another. And, although I had some difficulties, they could be recognized even while they wear the kendo clothes, which is not easy task, as you can only see their eyes. A really good point is how they've made front side of the protection mask nearly transparent for most of the time, so that one could see sometimes the whole face, but most of the time just the eyes. And it's exactly in the eyes that the animators actually did their best. Perfection in simplicity! :) Especially in Myia-Myia's. So lovely when she's angry...
Just two minor negative notes... The background is somehow repetitive, but it's actually well masked, as the characters catch your attention so well that the background is absolutely not important. Second thing is that while I said that I appreciated the short fights, it is also true that they are somehow too simplified. It's about the same scene over and over again, what change is just which one of the two kendoka lands the winning blow. Still, while it may seem a huge downside, in fact it is not, as most of the story evolves outside the fights.
Sound: 7/10
Voices are nearly perfect. So many characters, and each one has his/her own voice, similar to noone else, just like the appearance. And even if taken one by one, every voice is so well made that you could tell the expression and the feelings of the character, even if you just ear it's voice without looking at the screen. Again, a note of distinction goes to the voice of Miya-Miya :)
I would have appreciated at least a minor musical background every now and then. Nothing big, just something that is not the opening of the Blade Bravers, the anime-in-the-anime.
Characters: 8/10
A massive amount of characters, each one with distinct look, voice, personality, etc. And surely there is no risk of getting bored for looking always at the same one. Still, while there are that many, there's a bit of emphasis on just a couple of them, leaving most of the others as a side choice. Not a big damage, as each one of the 5 girls in the team soon or later receive their own moment of glory, And there's a fairly average attention to the team evolution, rather than just one character at a time
Something that I felt it could be better is that the two male members of the kendo club are nearly not considered. They do have some importance in the whole story, but since they are part of the club just like the five girls, if they had about the same importance as the girls it would'n hurt for sure.
There are no bad points at all, and a few things bring this anime slightly above a "good" evaluation.
I can't say much more that I haven't already, just enjoy it! It's not a must, there are better ones, but it deserve a place in the "to watch when I have some spare time" list.
There are no comments - leave one to be the first!

Film Review
We hereby postpone this striptease act to give you a Christina Aguilera concert
By Devin D. O'Leary
The best way to break it down is like this: If you're going to see Burlesque for the burlesque, you're in for a major disappointment. If you're just going to see it for Cher and Christina Aguilera belting out the tunes, then you're in marginally better shape. Despite the art form's alterna-chic revival, average American citizens have no freaking idea what burlesque is anyway. As a result, most viewers will be in the second filmgoing category. To them, I say: The soundtrack is available for download on iTunes and OPI has a new Burlesque nail polish collection. Enjoy the show!

- - Question on residual water from tank.. (http://www.tropicalfishkeeping.com/beginner-freshwater-aquarium/question-residual-water-tank-23718/)
Question on residual water from tank..
I am thinking about getting a 20 gallon with a wooden stand for my living room. The only thing that is stopping me is the thought of getting water all over my new tile floor. I know millions of people keep their tanks in their living rooms, lounges, etc. How do you deal with not splashing water everywhere? Currently I have a 5 gallon in our bedroom (with old carpeting). Maybe it's just me, but everytime I do ANYTHING with the tank it seems like I'm splashing water on the floor. Any thoughts appreciated.
I always spill water everywhere too. The nice thing about tile, its easy to clean up.
I have one tank in a room with carpet. That room I use an aquarium mat during water changes. It capable of soaking up lots of water and one side is rubber type material, so the water does not soak through. Its saved me a few times.
On tile you're fine. A little spill and you can towel it up no problem. It's on carpet you'd have to worry. My tank is in my tiled family room and all I do is lay down a towel around the base to work over as I do maintenance. It catches 95% of what might slosh or spill.
I have a tank on carpeted floor in living room. When I perform water changes I put down construction plastic. I also use rubbermaid tub to place all the decorations,wood,rock,etc in .When I'm done I hang the plastic out to dry ,and the tub upside down on the porch. I then fold up the plastic and stick it in the tub an place the tub in the pantry.

Pros: gameplay fps is so much more stable, with two r9 270x 4gv versions i used to get 220 avg fps on cs go, now i get 250-300-400 fps readings that werent possible before. Arma 3 runs entirely better and i can stream it 1080p medium 60fps in obs no problem on arma. Squad was a night and day change instantly, from 20avg fps on my amd 4.7ghz to 60 no problem avg and sometimes over 100 fps! games that are cpu reliant will be smoked by this cpu its awesome. easy to overclock as most mobos have a default oc setting up to 4.6 ghz.

- Bizzell Memorial Library
- Location:
- 401 West Brooks Street
- Phone:
- 405-325-3341
- Description:
Completed in 1929, Bizzell Library is an elaborate Collegiate Gothic Building and is a National Historical Landmark of the Untied States. It is nationally significant for its association with the racial desegregation court case of George McLaurin, a black man who was at first denied admission to the University of Oklahoma?s law school solely on the basis of race, in which the Supreme Court ruled against the segregation. This was a precedent for the more famous Brown v. Board of Education case later.
There are four special collections housed in Bizzell - Bass Business Collection, Bizzell Bible Collection, Nichols Collection, History of Science Collection, and Western History Collection.
The Bizzell Memorial Library is located in the middle of campus. Look for the seventy-five foot clock tower. This is directly west of the main entrance to the library. The original gothic entrance to the Bizzell Memorial Library is on the south of the building, allowing for a more scenic entrance to the original 1928 building. The west entrance is handicap-accessible.

Learn Kitesurfing in beautiful Pranburi!
|"This is a MUST do while visiting Thailand!"
Absolutely recommend that travelers to Thailand put Airstyler's kitesurfing course on their travel itinerary! Colin Wilson and his crew in Pranburi have put together an activity driven kitesurfing course that is super fun (and not to mention, extremely safety conscious) for beginners, intermediate and advanced kitesurfers. Col's patience and friendliness makes taking the course really enjoyable and those learning feel no pressure to be 'pro' or buy over the top expensive equipment (unlike many other Kite Shops in Thailand that really push the sales-pitch).
|"Relaxed environment"
Being a family with extremely young children (2 and 4), whom themselves are world travellers we felt that the location and staff were exactly what we wanted. There are other kiters that have kids and while you are out on the water there is no shortage of other kids to play with for your kids. The environment is laid back and everyone is out to help each other whether it be kiteboarding or watching out for one another's children even if they do not have any themselves. Their is a mix of people with families, couples, and singles but nobody is left or singled out. When the sun goes down then the real party begins or just a nice quiet conversation around the camp fire singing along to the guitar can be a great way to wind down for the day, until the wind comes again the next day!
|"WE LOVED PRANBURI and AIRSTYLERS KITE SCHOOL"
WOW what can I say Pak Nam Pran is a beauitful, relaxed and peaceful part of Thailand. Its a great place to relax and watch the weekend pass by, but if you are up for action Airstylers is the place to go just located on the opposite side of the road from the beach. Colin and his crew are FAB from beginners (which was me and my 2 kids 8 and 11), moderate (my husband) to being able to do tricks with your kite Colin offers somethig for everyone. My kids Loved him and his crew, as the kids were young to be learning i was looking for someone who was patient and extremely safety aware – and Colin offers all and that and much more. We never had any doubts with our kids kiting with Col and crew which was great. There is a whole community feel down there, so you end up spending days and nights with these guys which is alot of FUN.
Why Airstylers Kite School?
We pride ourselves on giving the best quality kitesurfing instruction in Thailand.
You pay by the hour for kitesurfing lessons so make sure your instructor is good! Be careful of inexperienced instructors – they will take longer to teach you (therefore it's more expensive) and could put you in danger.
We are based in Pak Nam Pran, Pranburi, 2.5hrs south of Bangkok. Our spot is the best for learning kitesurfing in Thailand and the may be the best for learning kitesurfing in Asia. Big empty beach, usually shallow water, good wind and warm water. Good conditions make it so much easier to learn!
We follow both the IKO and BKSA course structures.
Wind and Weather
There are 3 seasons for wind in Pranburi:
1 » November to mid January we get the North-Easterly Monsoon winds, cold powerful winds that start early. Great for wave riding, good for learning kitesurfing too. The water gets a bit cold – sometimes below 25deg. Brrr!!!
2 » Then February to June we get thermal winds building up as the land gets hotter. Like any true sea breeze it comes in around lunchtime and finishes after dusk. Beautiful kitesurfing winds!! Great for riding or for learning kitesurfing. It's the picutre perfect time of year.
3 » And in July to September – rainy season – we get offshore winds, good for sailing our Dart 18 Catamaran, but not for learning kitesurfing.

The film pivots on McAvoy's powerfully implosive performance as a man trying to grow beyond his own prejudices. His scenes with Wright, under Redford's nuanced guidance, give this film its timely resonance and its grieving heart. show more

Traveling is a part of our life. We travel to places and get to experience the culture, climate and people. If you are an independent traveler and you wish to plan your own itinerary and add a touch of luxury to your trip, then a custom personal tour guide is the best.
Turkey is one of the breath taking Mediterranean countries that offers the best to tourists. It is laced with beautiful beaches, coves, mountains, waterfalls, bays, peninsulas and islands. Turkey's location and the attractions there make it the best destination for individuals and families.
Though there are many tour operators who conduct group trips to Turkey, you can opt for a private tour to enjoy the holidays in the exact way you wish. Combining your breaks, short stays in huge hotels, customizing your trip schedule, planning your own sightseeing agenda and more is possible with private touring.
A personal tour guide offers you the flexibility and freedom to choose the places you want to visit and plan your trip as you desire. If you are looking for the best hotels, guides, cuisine and anything different from what group visits offer, then custom touring is for you.
A private tour is a tailor-made package created to suit you and your family. It can include your close knit friends and affiliates too. Packages for private tours in Turkey are created depending on your convenience and requirements.
Basically, there are 3 main reasons why you must choose a private tour package for your family. First, you can choose the hotels, places of interest, mode of travel and other activities, including the number of days you stay, without any restrictions. You can revise or modify your schedule as per your preferences. Also, you can create side trips and itineraries yourself.
Your interests might vary from what the group packages include. If you love sports and adventure, then you must go in for a customize package to Turkey. Also, if you are inclined to a specific cuisine and food, you can always take the liberty of choosing your hotel based on the food you would like to enjoy during your stay. Also, you can choose activities and events as per your interests. The tour operator will have the details of the hotels, festivities and other things going on in Turkey at the time of your visit, cuisines served in various inns and so on. You can find more information on the Internet before deciding where you will stay.
Thirdly, they offer you professional and well qualified guides. You can know and understand the places you visit while they guide you through the tour. Furthermore, they are certified. They can, at times, go beyond guiding and help you to get a feel for the real Turkey by telling you about certain areas related to the place.
Bottom Line
Although private tours of Turkey cost more than group trips, there is something special you get through such a route. It is you who creates the tour based on your interests and preferences making it a highly personalized one. So go order your Turkey Visa right now for a hassle-free, friendly and professional service – the money you spend is worth it.

Database Driven Social Media Website
- Status Closed
- Budget N/A
- Total Bids 48
Project Description
I am looking to have a database driven social media website created. I have 90% of the site mocked up for design, but need someone to turn the mock up into a real website. I am looking to have the website written in the .net framework, specifically using c# and MVC 4. I have mock ups and preferred database maps that will have been included. All intellectual property rights for those documents are protected. Any violation of or duplication or use of those documents without the author's consent can result in legal action.
The idea for the site is to create a social media website centered around doing good deeds for other people and seeing the power of those deeds. We want to track how a good deed is passed along from person to person and how it spreads throughout the world. We want to show how one good deed can potentially touch the lives of millions of people.
It all starts with: a good deed:
When one person enters a good deed on the site, they tag the recipient of the good deed (alternatively the recipient of a good deed can post the deed tagging the doer of the good deed.) That person receives a notification by email if they are not a user or by notification if they are already a member. They then do two good deeds for two other people to "pass it along."
The main page the user deals with is a deed feed which shows a list of deeds relevant to them.
They also have a deed journal that shows them a chronology of any good deeds they have done or received.
There is a notification page which gives them updates and notifications regarding any actions taken upon any good deeds related to them.
They also have the ability to favorite deeds and see those favorite deeds on their favorites page.
Clicking on a good deed on any of the above mentioned 4 pages will take them to that deed's "deed chain" which is an org chart of how all the deeds are related to each other. Each deed can have one parent deed and two children deed. (as well as one sibling deed, although we do not necessarily need to track that)
Deeds can have as multiple "doers" as well as multiple "recipients." (I.e. a group of people could do something nice for one person or one person could do something nice for a group of people.)
The following actions can be taken upon a deed:
Commented on
Shared on social media.
An alternative view for the deed chain will be the deed map, which shows a "heat map" of where the most recent deeds related to the user have been done around the world.
Each user will obviously have a standard profile page where they can make the necessary changes to their profile.
On the back end of things, we will need an admin tool that allows us to ban deeds or users or delete comments, etc. basically to moderate the site. This part does not have to be pretty and I have no preference on how it looks.Get free quotes for a project like this

A Beautiful Troublemaker: Rivette's Mystery Without Facts
Unaccountably but inspiring little surprise, Jacques Rivette's 2003 film found no theatrical takers here, so the DVD should count as a release. It is, in any case, another fabulously Rivettian dream-time, a seamless, elliptical meander through a vaguely menacing contemporary Paris networked with subterranean messages, unreadable portents, and unspoken motivations. In fact, it's the most symptomatic film he's made in years (he began it in the '70s, with Albert Finney and Leslie Caron, but then abandoned it), examining what happens when a moody clocksmith (Jerzy Radziwilowicz, surrounded by ticking gear work) blackmails an indulgent merchant of chinoiserie (Anne Brochet) as he also re-ignites an affair with a beautiful and maddeningly distant woman (Emmanuelle Béart). "What is happening?" Béart's ethereal femme says at one point; who can answer with certainty? Of course, the slow-moving storya mystery without factsis merely the road map, not the trip; Rivette confidently works in the same border world between narrative meaning and cinematic artifice that he has since Paris Belongs to Us. The movie is surprisingly savvy about romantic delusions, but just when you're wondering if Rivette has been a cineastical metaphysician from his first film, Marie and Julien becomes a ghost story, infinitely ponderable and strange, not unlike Celine and Julie Go Boating. The supps include a coffee shop interview with the 77-year-old master, nervously nattering over tea about supernaturalia.

text: A few weeks ago, before this blog existed even as a thought in my head, I had the opportunity to explore the new development in Sheepshead, The Breakers. The condos are causing a bit of ruckus with local groups including the Sheepshead Bay/Plumb Beach Civic Association, as well as with CB 15 chairperson Theresa Scavo, who are angered with the buildings' gate, which stops pedestrian traffic. This is a photo off of the development's "pier", which is a very generous name. Still, the condos have a beautiful view of the mouth of the bay; hopefully it'll be one we can all enjoy.

Lenzing Falls Most in 10 Months After Forecasts Below EstimatesAlexander Weber
Lenzing AG, an Austrian maker of cellulose fibers, fell the most in 10 months after the company said growth will slow and its outlook was less than estimated.
Earnings before interest and tax this year will range between 140 million euros ($181 million) and 170 million euros, the Lenzing, Austria-based company said today. Analysts had expected Ebit of 205 million euros, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Lenzing shares fell as much as 6 percent, the biggest intraday drop since May 14.
"It's time to adjust our growth rate to the environment," said Thomas Winkler, Lenzing's chief financial officer, at a press conference in Vienna. Visibility into the fiber market remains low, he said.
Profit margins of Lenzing's wood fibers, which are linked to the price of cotton, contracted in 2012. Cotton spot prices ended last year 12 percent below their peak price, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
"The cotton price is very volatile," Chief Executive Officer Peter Untersperger said, adding that China has collected a large stockpile of the material. "That confuses the market."
Lenzing shares were down 4.9 percent at 68.01 euros as of 2:27 p.m. in Vienna. It was today's worst performance on the 39-member Bloomberg EMEA Chemicals Index.
Full-year net income attributable to shareholders fell 32 percent to 175.6 million euros. Revenue dipped to 2.09 billion euros from 2.14 billion euros.
The drop in margins forecast by Lenzing is considerable, said Bernhard Selinger, a Vienna-based analyst at Raiffeisen Centrobank, via telephone. The company may be exercising caution with its forecasts to avoid revisions later in the year, he said.
Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization will be as much as 290 million euros while sales may reach 2.25 billion euros, the company said. Analysts expected 337.8 million euros Ebitda on 2.16 billion euros sales, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Lenzing also announced that it is evaluating offers to buy its plastics unit, which last year generated 109.4 million euros of sales, in order focus on its core fiber business.

The Cant and Can't Against Free Software
Off the Beat: Bruce Byfield's Blog
I spent much of last week dodging discussions of the shootings in Aurora. Too much of the discussion was predictable -- the same pro and anti gun arguments we've all heard hundreds of time, all made in that contextless way that is so peculiarly American, as though the rest of the world didn't exist, and none of the collective angst likely to change anything. And the little I heard despite my best efforts started nagging me. Somewhere, I had heard it all before.
An immediate answer was the ramp-up for the Summer Olympics, with all the talk about excellence that's designed to pretend that the games are still about something besides nationalism and commercialism. Since the Winter Games were held two years ago in my home town of Vancouver, I was still mentally allergic to that brand of hypocrisy.
Then the real answer hit me: American arguments about guns (and health care and same sex marriage) and Olympics promotion had exactly the same tone as the arguments I hear when I try to explain to Windows users why they might have a look at free software.
All these things are examples of what nineteenth century reformers and radicals called cant -- conventional beliefs held in defiance of logic and all discussions. Usually, cant is used to dismiss alternative views, acting an explanatory principle for those who repeat it constantly so that they don't have to think outside their accepted views. Faced with an effort to discuss other opinions, those who voice cant simply repeat their basic views over and over instead of listening to what is being said or trying to argue.
Windows Cant
By definition, anything you label as cant is something with which you disagree because of its unexamined conventionality. For this reason, summarizing cant with sarcasm or parody is often difficult. However, let me try:
Very few Windows users actually like Windows. You can tell by the almost constant low-level grumbling and the anti-Microsoft jokes that are constantly circulating. These days, anybody who expresses enthusiasm for Windows or Microsoft is probably trying to sell you a copy -- and even Microsoft employees are often mute about the virtues of Windows
However, this lack of enthusiasm doesn't mean that many people are looking for alternatives. Although grumbling may be widespread, it is accompanied by a conviction that nobody can do much about the problems associated with Windows. Crashes, restarting your machine after installs, and invasions of privacy and consumer rights are all nuisances, but they are simply the price you pay for computing. Although they have probably never tried another operating system (whatever exactly that is), they can't see the point. What could possibly be different?
In other words, Windows users tend to believe that no fundamental change is possible. Perhaps inertia enters into this belief, too.
However, what matters is that, in order to sustain this resigned fatalism, Windows users are often quick to seize on any excuse that presents itself. OS X? Over-priced and prone to eye-candy instead of function. It's hard to find software for it, too.
Similarly, when Linux is mentioned, the reaction is disbelief. When I have mentioned that viruses are only a minor concern on Linux, several Windows users have all but called me a liar. They have never tried Linux, but they are sure that the know all about what computing is like.
The same is true of the fact that free software runs most of the Internet, including the social media sites whose free memberships they use daily. Do you think they are stupid? Their looks ask. If such things were true, then why haven't they heard of them?
Before long, the old myths come tumbling out -- and I mean "myth" not just in the sense of a lie, but of a belief that helps someone sustain their world view. Relying on secondhand evidence, they will tell as facts established beyond all questioning that Linux and free software are hard to install, and still rely entirely on the command line. They lack support, and compatibility, too, and nothing you say will convince them. You may think that you're having a conversation, but, on some level, what they are doing is defending their continued unethusiastic use of Windows.
You can never debunk all their statements, partly because there are so many of them, but mainly because they really don't want to hear any other view. Try, and they will just repeat what everyone knows. That is, after all, the purpose of cant -- to defend a mainstream viewpoint without requiring anyone to think.
Waiting for the opportunity
When I was a university instructor, I gradually realized that even the best teacher could only provide an opportunity to learn. No matter how much time you invested, no matter how dynamic your lessons or how long your office hours, you could actually do very little if a student wasn't already interested in learning.
The older I get, the more I realize that the same is true in most matters. Until people are willing to hear your advice or suggestions, in most cases you are only wasting your time. Very few people can be persuaded to listen against their will. At most, they will only pretend to listen.
As a free software advocate, you can have your facts at hand, ready to offer them if someone asks. But otherwise, you might as well save your efforts -- unless, of course, you want to hear the familiar cant repeated endlessly, and waste your time trying to disprove it to closed minds.
"cant"I think you are talking about genetic human nature which indeed is very hard to change. People are fiercely loyal to their group and its culture and traditions. It is an expression of what was originally tribalism. There aren't very many tribes now, but there are substitutes which we humans naturally seek out. This can take the form of nationalism, racism, religion, or even an emotional enthusiasm for a school or professional sports team. Conformity is part of our tribal nature, and it is apparently very difficult break free of this and become more objective. Whatever I and my group think and do is better than what you think and do. 100,000 years ago that attitude was a big survival advantage, and therefore became genetic.

Yes, and this should be another outcome form our views workshop. I am thoroughly confused by the many names in use within views. I feel sure many are not needed. For example, in this mail you introduce, for the first time, the definition of *.vt as "view tiles". These files are templates. They have the same syntax as other templates why give them a diffferent name? <xsl:cal-template ...>, for example, does not call a complete different type of template. why should <forrest:call-temlate> Then we have contracts, which are acrtually defined in *.ft (forrest-templates), but the syntax of their language is <forrest:tempalte>. It is thoroughly confusing, and I believe totally unnecessa/ Lets pick a few simple terms to refer to simple concepts and stick with them. (if there is a nedd for different terminology convince us (me?) in Stuttgart after we have a solid grounding, it will be much easier for you I am sure) ... >>I would like to see a new type of plugin that is a single template. > > > about which templates do you talk about? About forrest:contract (*.ft) > or (*.vt)? Or forrest:views (*.fv)? Here is a perfect example of why we need clear, unambiguos names. I was referring to *.ft (forret-template) *.fv is a view so I don't understand why it is even a possability here. As for *.vt this is something that was introduced a couple of days ago. I am not sure why *.vt even needs to exist as a separate extension (think <xsl:template match=""> and <xsl:template name=""/>) and so did not think about it when writing the above sentence. > Do you mean adding all contracts that we extracted (like > content-feeder.ft) again into one single template? No. I mean making all contracts (i.e. *.ft = forrest-templates) availablew as separate units of functionlaity rather than bundling them up within a view plugin that prevents their easy reuse across different views (*.fv) However... > Like I will implement soon in our viewHelper.xhmtl.

OK, this is very similar to what I am proposing, but it is a different approach. I think there is merit in both approaches so we need to discuss these in Stuttgart. I won;t try and do it now as I am starting my travels tomorrow so I won;t be able to follow up. Just as a teaser for my thinking avout my alternative approach. It has the advantage of allowing the reuse of contracts across different formatsm, which you approach does not (unless you create dependencies between views plugins). For example, Hanax needs to reuse most of the XHTML view in his voiceML view. >>org.apache.forrest.output.Pelt >>org.apache.forrest.output.Leather >>etc. >> > > > You are using skin names here. > > No, the idea should be to have skins *in* the view plugin. Only in your implementation. Like I say, I see merit in both approaches. We can discuss in Stuttgart and come up with a proposal fot the list from that. Chances are we will take the best of both approaches. >>--- >> >>Currently we have output plugins that do things like create the various >>output documents. Are vew going to replace these plugins?

Redlegs Run
Team 700WLW, at the Redlegs Run, 2012. This was my last competitive event. But, I'm returning to one of my favorite hobbies: running.
The Redlegs 5k was my first real race since high school, and holds a special place in my heart. It's this Saturday, May 31st.
The link with all the information is right here. Online registration is closed, but, there's still time to sign up in person.
The Redlegs Run, which does include a 5k, a 10k, a one mile family run/walk, and Gapper's Kids Fun Run, is a fundraiser for the Reds Community Fund, which makes baseball available to youth.
There are 4,000 people signed up so far for this year's event, which ends inside Great American Ball Park.
Last year, 4,300 people ran and walked, and generated more than $180,000 for the Reds Community Fund.

Football season is back. I can't say that I'm all that excited to watch the games, however, as I have mentioned before, I am quite excited for football season because it means football food. It mean's chicken wings, guacamole, chips and potato skins. And it means that I get to cook all of this food and share it with family and friends which is my favorite part. Although eating it, especially when it is as good as this dip, isn't half bad either.
I got this idea from a friend who always makes a black bean dip for her parties. I never got her recipe, but I remembered the flavors pretty well and decided to give it a whirl with a few twists of my own. I added some jalapenos and habanero salsa because I love heat as you probably know. And then I sprinkled some pepper jack cheese over the top and baked the whole thing until bubbly. It's cheesy, spicy, black bean goodness.
If you like hot dips but want a non-vegetarian version try this Hot Chorizo Dip. It's sure to be a crowd pleaser too.
My name is Des. I'm a Mom to Kellan and Preston. Wife to Ryan. Dog mom to Pumpkin and lover of all things food. Whether it is cooking it, eating it, shopping for it or watching TV about it, food is one of my favorite things. Read more »

Tottenham appear to be closing in on the signing of Liverpool target Willian after the Brazilian international arrived in London ahead of a medical with the club.
The 25-year-old looks certain to leave Anzhi Makhachkala for around £30m and despite early reports that the Reds were in advanced talks with the Russian club over a move, it appears Spurs are now in pole position to sign the attacking midfielder.
Willian was close to joining Spurs in January this year, but after chairman Daniel Levy flew to Ukraine to negotiate a deal with his club at the time Shakhtar Donetsk, the clubs were unable to agree a deal and the highly-rated Brazilian moved to Anzhi instead.
But Premier League clubs were again put on red alert when Willian expressed his desire to play in England after Anzhi's billionaire owner Suleyman Kerimov lost patience with his underachieving squad and made every player available for a transfer in an effort to cut the extensive wage bill.
Spurs have already spent nearly £60m on the acquisition of new players, with Roberto Soldado, Nacer Chadli, Paulinho and Etienne Capoue all making their competitive debuts in Sunday's 1-0 victory over Crystal Palace – Soldado converting a penalty to give manager Andre Villas-Boas a winning start to the new season.
Willian plays predominantly behind the striker but he is capable of playing on either flank and he could be a potential replacement for current Spurs star Gareth Bale.
Bale is expected to complete a world-record transfer to Real Madrid before the September 2 deadline, although the move has stalled in recent weeks despite the announcement that talks remain on-going.
Should the Welshman head to Spain, Spurs would seemingly receive at least £85m should a player exchange not be included, and the deal would give the north London club more than enough to accommodate the move for Willian – along with more new faces should Villas-Boas feel the need to.
Willian is unlikely to take a pay-cut from his current £85,000-a-week contract, meaning Spurs will have to shell out a significant sum in both a transfer fee and wages, and the likelihood of Anzhi agreeing to accept Spurs offer is near certain with their intention to bring through their own players rather than big-money signings that thy have chased in recent years.

(See also Part I: Christians Who Demonize Israel: Kairos)
Christians make up only some 1.5% of the Palestinian population. They live in an overwhelmingly Muslim atmosphere and are, given the threats they face from Muslim extremists, naturally loath to express a Christian narrative that differs from the dominant Palestinian narrative, which openly rejects many fundamental Christian beliefs. It is commonplace for Palestinians to express denials of history. Thus, it is repeated that there were never any Jews in the Holy Land before the 19thcentury and that the first and second Jewish Temples never stood in Jerusalem. Not only do these claims fly in the face of over a century of archaeological work and the records of Greek, Roman and other historians in antiquity, they flatly contradict and annul the texts of both the Old and New Testaments.
Jesus, it would seem, was not a Jewish teacher but a Palestinian Arab who never set foot in Herod's Temple because it did not exist, and there were never any Jews in the Holy Land. Mitri Raheb, pastor of the Evangelical Lutheran Christmas Church in Bethlehem, has actually argued that there is no DNA connection between Jews (ancient or modern) and Jesus, but that he himself, as a Palestinian, has such a link. By associating themselves closely with this Palestinian historical fabrication and never asserting the Biblical record (as to do so might be regarded as supportive of the Jewish right to a homeland), many Palestinian Christians are in danger of supporting by omission the Qur'anic claims that the Torah and Gospels have been falsified by rabbis and priests.

Help Keep LUR Free & Timely
For the last few years, America has been slowly awakened to the level of Marxism taught in American classrooms. From the of taking public school students to Cuba and the NEA's reccommendation of Saul Alinsky to the most recent revelation of the University of St. Louis' "Introduction to Labor Studies" taught by two Marxists who, in addition to allegedly giving a Communist organizer two hours of class time to recruit, also shared the finer points of industrial sabotage and cat electrocutions.
According to a student who was enrolled in the class, the professors politicized the classroom by bashing Scott Walker and Republicans, allegedly stating at one point:
"The Republican party has done a great job of reducing class to a bunch of tastes, and demonizing liberals because their taste is different from 'rednecks.'"
Moreover, regarding the Communist organizer who was given two hours to recruit in class, the student noted:
Pecinovsky also described the dues requirements and initiation procedures of the Communist Party, and gave out his phone number several times, offering to stay as long as anyone wanted to talk to him about joining.
Prof. Ancel acknowledged that joining the Communist Party could cost students their future security clearances, make them less desirable to future employers, and potentially put them on federal watch lists. Still, she and Prof, Giljum invited this organization into class to recruit. Call me crazy, but I thought universities and professors were supposed to help students become more appealing to employers, not hook them up with questionable organizations that by their own admission could cost students their future livelihood.
Given the level of Marxism and outright socialism raging through America's publicly-funded institutions, it is somewhat ironic (and not the least bit hypocritical) that the Left becomes hysterical when individuals who donate their private money to universities and have the audacity to place some conditions on their donations.
Last week, Bloomberg reported on former BB&T Corp. chairman John Allison's giving of grants of up to $2 million to schools if they create a course on capitalism and make Atlas Shrugged required reading.
Allison's crusade to counter what he considers the anti- capitalist orthodoxy at universities has produced results — and controversy. Some 60 schools, including at least four campuses of the University of North Carolina, began teaching Rand's book after getting the foundation money. Faculty at several schools that have accepted Allison's terms are protesting, saying donors shouldn't have the power to set the curriculum to pursue their political agendas, Bloomberg Markets magazine reports in its June issue.
"We have sought out professors who wanted to teach these ideas," says Allison, now a professor at Wake Forest University's business school in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. "It's really a battle of ideas. If the ideas that made America great aren't heard, then their influence will be destroyed."
In Florida, the Left's favorite boogeymen du jour, the Koch Brothers, are taking heat for putting stipulations on the $1.5 million the Charles G. Koch Charitable Foundation is giving Florida State University for a new program promoting "political economy and free enterprise." Not surprisingly, for its money, the foundation wants the ability to "screen and sign off on" new hires. Given the amount of Marxistsm in academia, it's easy to see why a donor like Koch would want to ensure an instructor being hired to teach free enterprise isn't one like those who teach the University of Missouri's Introduction to Labor Studies. For all the angst the donors like Allison and Koch are causing the Left, even the New York Times notes the schools could refuse to accept the donations:
One could argue that such conditions compromise academic freedom, and allow the education of today's impressionable youth to be dictated by the highest bidder. But colleges are not required to accept these gifts. If they found the conditions truly objectionable — or at least if their objections outweighed the additional good the money could do — they could always graciously decline the money.
Meanwhile, as the Left protests private money "compromising" academic freedom, taxpayer money (as well as private) still pours into colleges and universities to teach students about union activism and, to varying degrees, social justice (aka socialism). Here are just a few (with partial descriptions):
Of course, there is also the aforementioned University of MO Kansas CIty Institute for Labor Studies:
The Institute for Labor Studies offers credit and non-credit courses on a wide range of labor issues including bargaining, grievance handling, internal organizing, the global economy, labor history. It offers custom training for unions and a Labor Studies Credit Certificate Program on the Interactive Video Network in cooperation with other Missouri labor education programs. It's Labor in the Schools program has developed a 15-hour curriculum appropriate for high school 11th grade social studies classes and adaptable for apprenticeship and union education programs. ILS also sponsors and coordinates The Heartland Labor Forum, a one-hour weekly radio show on community radio in Kansas City. ILS does programming and tours on maquiladora issues in Mexico.
You probably noted in the program description, there is nothing about teaching the finer points of industrial sabotage, the electrocution of cats, and the recruitment of young Communists. Then again, since the program is at least partially funded with tax-payer money, they wouldn't want to be that blatant.
While there are others of more or less Marxist leanings, the University of Wisconsin School for Workers (in Madison, Wisconsin) is noted as the "oldest University labor education program in North America."
And, of course, let us not forget that unions donate money to colleges to influence academia, like Harvard's Jerry Wurf Memorial Fund, which is paid for by AFSCME.
The Jerry Wurf Memorial Fund of the LWP was established in 1982 in memory of the late President of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME). Its income is used to initiate programs and activities that:
[R]eflect Jerry Wurf's belief in the dignity of work, and his commitment to improving the quality of lives of working people, to free open thought and debate about public policy issues, to informed political action…and to reflect his interests in the quality of management in public service, especially as it assures the ability of workers to do their jobs with maximum effect and efficiency in environments sensitive to their needs […]
Last, but not least, is the National Labor College/George Meany Center:
The National Labor College (NLC) is one of a kind, the only college in the United States with an exclusive mission to serve the educational needs of the labor movement. It is an activist institution made up of students, faculty and alumni who together form a learning community based on a common understanding of the world of work and the ecology of the labor movement. The College respects that its student body is made up of experienced, highly skilled working adults who have multiple commitments to family, job, union and community. In its academic programs, the NLC honors higher learning that takes place both inside and outside the collegiate community.
The National Labor College is partially funded by the AFL-CIO (paid for by member dues) and is affiliated with numerous (publicly-funded) universities. Though this is just a guess, the AFL-CIO would probably strenuously object to a free-market economist like Walter Williams being hired to teach at the National Labor College.
It's unfortunate that businessmen are being chastised for donating money to colleges and having to stipulate that the money be used to promote free-markets. Then again, with so many schools openly embracing Marxist ideology, the hypocrisy of the Left-wing academia in this area is not one that is unexpected.
"I bring reason to your ears, and, in language as plain as ABC, hold up truth to your eyes." Thomas Paine, December 23, 1776
Dude: have you seen the doc "Inside Job"? They actually interview the "free market" propagandists who define the study of economics for the rest of the country. Their lies about the existence of a "free market" become the premise for preaching that the economy needs less regulation to promote growth. Of course, negligence by regulators is the primary cause of today's recession. Get the doc from Netflicks, and maybe you'll learn something about who the propagandists really are in the US academy.
On second thought, somebody who writes "social justice (aka socialism)" probably can't learn from "Inside Job!"
William J. Kelleher, Ph.D.
