Situationist Theories of Hate – Part I
Posted by The Situationist Staff on October 27, 2007
Social Psychologist Alexander Gunz just published a thoughtful and surprisingly fun summary of social psychological theories about why we humans seem to "hate" so readily and so often. The full article is in the latest edition of In-Mind, which we highly recommend. We will excerpt portions of Gunz's informative and entertaining article in this post and several to follow. This post provides Gunz's introduction to the topic of hate and a brief overview of the personality-based explanation by social psychologists (which we would describe as "internal situational" sources of hate).
* * *
Humans are passionate creatures. Our passions drive us, gives us a sense of belonging, and unite us as few other things can. Still, there are only a couple of passions that have been constants down the ages, passions that people from every place and culture can agree on. Love is one, but another is that "those no-good bastards over there are trouble." Of course, we quibble endlessly over the exact definition of "those" — every culture, pretty much, has had a different group in mind. But the singular fact of prejudice per se was as recognizable in Ancient Greece, Rome, and Samaria as it is now in modern Greece, Rome, and Arkansas.
Not only do we disagree over who Those Bastards Over There (TBOT) are, but also over why we hate them so much. Nose size has been cited in the past as a reason, as has intellectual capacity (too much or too little), and bad manners (eating without implements, eating with implements, etc). Hate may be a massively universal thing, but we are shockingly divided over why we do it. Personally, I blame TBOT.
Psychologists, though, (hate us or loathe us) aren't as sanguine about not knowing, and have spent a great deal of time investigating prejudice in its many guises. They have come to two broad classes of answers: (a) Reasons we hate each other, and (b) Reasons we think we hate each other. There's not as much overlap between those two as you might hope.
Why We Hate – A First Stab at
Them It.
Scientific psychology started getting seriously interested in prejudice just after the Second World War. There's nothing like a conspicuous mountain of corpses to really get you going on the question of hate.
The first really influential answer that psychology came to was not the ever popular theory that "some people are just jerks," but neither was it far off. A German intellectual called Theodor W. Adorno released a book in 1950 called "The Authoritarian Personality," in which he detailed research on his "F-scale." This scale was designed to pick out people who were, among other things, conventional minded, uncritically accepting of authority, and accepting of the need for authorities to aggressively apply their power. He called it the F-scale, because he thought it would pick out people prone to fascism. Other people pointed out that it might not do a bad job picking out Soviet style communists either, but as a committed Marxist Adorno wasn't as taken with this application.
These ideas have been updated as the construct of "Right Wing Authoritarianism," about which the leading authority, Bob Altemeyer, has written a highly readable book which is available for free online HERE. New research (e.g. [Situationist Contributor] Jost, 2006) is adding to this showing that people who are very low in the commonly measured "openness to experience" construct seem to be more likely to be both right wing, and prejudiced.
Psychologists have long noted people's over-fondness (at least in the western world) for explaining actions in terms of the personalities of the actors involved. It is therefore not really surprising that personality-based explanations were the first ones to occur to psychologists too. However, we tend to neglect the possibility that sometimes people fall because they are tripped and not just because they are clumsy. In fact, this bias is so commonplace that psychologists have named it the fundamental attribution error. Might psychologists have fallen prey to this bias that they are so keen to note in others? Might hate come from one's circumstances too, rather than only just ornery dispositions?

About Other RhôneView a map of Other Rhône wineries Other appellations of the Rhône include: in the North – St-Péray, Chateau Grillet; in the South – Lirac, Côtes du Ventoux, Côtes du Tricastin, Rasteau
About France - Other regionsWhen it comes to wine, France is a classic. Classic blends, grapes and styles began in the country and they still remain. Think about it - people ask for a Burgundian style Pinot Noir, they refer to wines as Bordeaux or Rhone blends - Champagne even had to pass a law to stop international wineries from putting their region on the label of all sparkling wine.
The top regions of France are: Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne, Languedoc-Roussillon, Loire, Rhone. And these regions are so diverse! It makes sense that wine regions throughout the world try to emulate their style. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah are no longer French varieties, but international varieties. They may not be the leader of cutting edge technology or value-priced wines, but there is no doubt that they are still producing wines of great quality and diversity.

Lauren Alaina shares brave new song about family alcoholism
Listen to Lauren Alaina on iHeartRadio
(Yahoo!) - Lauren Alaina is in country music for keeps. And if you've doubted that, you need to check out this video of her boldly debuting a song she just co-wrote, "Same Day, Different Bottle," at a private music industry party in Nashville on Monday. The American Idol alumnus turns 19 on Friday but seemed soulful well beyond her years as she delivered a bold, freshly minted ballad about her father's struggle with alcoholism.
Alaina performed the song for about a hundred guests at a CMT Next Women of Country brunch. Although the tune really wasn't intended for public consumption yet — she hasn't even started recording her second album yet — we caught her performance on shaky-cam video, and Alaina graciously allowed us to share it with you, as a glimpse into the pain she's experienced personally and the great strides she's making professionally.
Yahoo! Music caught up again with Alaina in Nashville Tuesday night to ask her about the true-life story behind "Same Day, Different Bottle."
"The song is about my father," she confirmed. "He actually got out of rehab today! I haven't gotten to see him yet, because he's back in Chattanooga, where I'm from. That song was like therapy for me. It's not easy growing up in a household with something like that. I love my dad — he's one of my favorite people in the world — and he's a great person. He just struggled with alcohol, and he's overcoming it right now, so I'm really proud of him. I played him the song, and he loved it. It made him cry. I think it was good for him to hear my side and to see how it affected me. Today is a new beginning for him. It's gonna be a battle for the rest of his life, but I'm going to be right there with him, and pray that every day he doesn't want to drink it up and touch a bottle. I hope it's no longer the same day, different bottle. Different day, no bottle!"

"Looking for a comfortable, well-fitting snorkel? Let us guide you through picking and buying a snorkel.
First, you'll want to control how water can - or cannot - enter your snorkel tube. The most traditional entry style is the open top, a simple tube shaped like the letter J. These let in water if the top is submerged and are a popular type of freediving snorkel. A bit higher maitenance is the semi-dry snorkel, which stops water from entering the top of the tube. And what is a dry top snorkel? In addition to preventing water from spashing into the top, when you breathe out the dry top snorkel also fushes water from the bottom of the tube with a purge valve. To pick the best entry style for you, consider your level of experience and desired maintenance .
Next, select the type of attachment between your mouthpiece and snorkel tube barrel. A contoured snorkel tube has a rigid bend, common for open top snorkels.exible bend is pliable, like an accordion, and allows you to adjust the angle between the tube and mouthpiece.
Finally, think about size - do you need a kids sno a kids snorkel package? - and space - how about a foldable snorkel?"

There's Nothing Real About These "Real Beauty" Campaigns
Although at first it appears that companies like Dove and Bare Minerals have taken a step in the right direction by running "Real Beauty" campaigns, there's often nothing real about them.
When I see an ad that claims to feature real women, yet the woman are still remarkably flawless, it doesn't do a whole lot for me. At least when I see a model in an advertisement I can tell myself that the way she looks is fake, enhanced by photo shop, and probably required harmful eating practices. When I see an ad that claims to be "real" or represent "average women," yet not a single woman weighs over 140 pounds (the average weight of an American woman) I can't help but feel as if I'm imperfect, and …

Jon Bon Jovi denies booting Sambora from tour
Listen to Bon Jovi on iHeartRadio
Bon Jovi frontman Jon Bon Jovi is denying allegations that he kicked Richie Sambora out of the band.
The singer tells the Austin's American-Statesman that Sambora is "doing all right," but admits he hasn't "spoken to him." He adds that the guitarist walked away from Bon Jovi's tour on his own accord.
Jon says the rest of the band was "surprised" last week when they got a call a few hours before their their April 2nd show in Calgary notifying them that Richie "wouldn't be there." But he still isn't offering any details behind Sambora's departure, and simply adds that it's "a personal matter." Reports have surfaced claiming that Jon - at his wife Dorothea's urging - kicked Richie off the tour over Richie's supposed substance abuse.
Following the Calgary show last week Bon Jovi posted a website message stating that Sambora's absence was "due to personal issues," but the band would still continue with their tour as scheduled.
The group has tapped guitarist Phil "Phil X" Xenidis to fill in for Sambora. Bon Jovi will be performing in Austin Wednesday night.

SC Ports releasing year-end cargo numbers
From the Associated Press:
The year-end figures are being released during a meeting of the authority board Tuesday in Charleston. The board will also deal with a resolution to raise the dikes of its dredge spoils area on Charleston harbor to handle more silt dredged from the shipping channel.
The board last month approved a $123 million capital spending plan for the fiscal year that began July 1. That budget includes about $29 million for the new inland port in Greer.
The inland port is to open in September, providing a direct rail link to the Charleston port facilities. It's expected to reduce the number of trucks traveling on Interstate 26.

I was wondering how well the glitter holds up, too--especially on your iPhone case.ReplyDeleteReplies
Hi Jen! Everything is holding up great. The iPhone case is fine, but I like to switch up my cases a lot so the most that I've used it is probably a full week of daily use. I'm not sure how it will hold up for say daily use for a month but as far as I can tell, the mod podge and glitter are for sure stuck on and no glitter fall out.Delete
love your phone case - i want to make a glittery android case because there really aren't any cute cases available for the droid!ReplyDelete
i also wanted to share my glitter wine glass post with you - it's been really popular on my blog! http://www.cupcakesncouture.com/2012/02/diy-glitter-wine-glasses.html
glad we can connect over our mutual love of glitter :)
How did you make the mixture of mod podge and glitter? How much mod podge and how much glitter? Do you mix it up before you spread it on the candle holderReplyDeleteReplies
Please see my previous post for the instructions. http://www.iamstyle-ish.com/2011/12/diy-glitter-clutch.htmlDelete
Love this! I hate when I spend a lot of time glittering something, and then the glitter just ends up falling off. I will absolutely use this method next time.ReplyDelete
Love Love Love This!! Glitter is my Favorite Color......soo.....thanks! ;)ReplyDelete
I've done this and the glitter sheds BIG time for me. Anyone know how to keep the glitter on? Is there a shellack I should be putting over it?ReplyDeleteReplies
Hi Alicia,Delete
All my stuff that I've done months ago still has not shed. Did you have a pretty strong mixture of mod podge to glitter? Because when you pour the mixture, you want it to be a good amount of mod podge so that all the glitter specks are covered in the mod podge. That way all the glitter is coated and will hold better. I did not use a shellack or any coating. My clutch has some wear but only in the folds of where I have to open and close the bag. Other than that, the fall out is minimal.
Hope that helps!
LOVE LOVE LOVE the phone case!ReplyDelete
Great idea! Another tip for getting remaining candle wax out is to put the container in the freezer over night, the wax should pop right out. I've done this a few times and it works really well.ReplyDelete
Awesome!!I'm def trying this. :) xReplyDelete
You shouldnt keep any kind of makeup products makeup brushes or tooth brushes etc in a bathroom. Really unhygenic :(ReplyDelete
I love this idea! I'm a huge fan of jeweling anything I find that's not cute lol. Now I will be glittering all my random apartment items that are much less than glamorous. Thanks :)!!ReplyDelete
would you put the glitter on the inside (the part your phone woul dbe against)or the outside of the case?ReplyDelete
Another way to get the last bit of wax out is to put the jar in the freezer (for an hour or so), then use a butter knife to break it up. It all falls right out.ReplyDelete
You can also put the candle jars in the freezer for an hour or so, and use a butter knife to break up the wax and it all falls right out.ReplyDeleteReplies
Oh, good to know. Thanks for the tip!Delete
What glitter color did u use on the Sun Rippened Raspberry candle jar???ReplyDeleteReplies
Oh, sorry I can't help :( It was such an old bottle of glitter that the brand/name is long gone.Delete
Just a tip for getting rid of the leftover wax in candle holders/jars/whatever: I just stick it into the kitchen sink at let hot water run on it. That will flush out the wax and clean your jar completely. It uses more water, but you don't run the risk of the glass container cracking from the heat of boiling water.ReplyDelete
What mixture of mod podge vs glitter did you use? Equal parts? I am going to glitter my phone case! Planning to mix an Onyx glitter with a dark turquoise! This is so awesome thank you!ReplyDeleteReplies
2 parts glitter to 1 part mod podge worked for me. that sounds so pretty!Delete
Another easy way to clean out candle jars is to stick it in the freezer for 30+ minutes. Then all the wax just snaps out!ReplyDelete
such a gr8 idea to add glitter to anything in d house! :) you're iPhone case came out pretty amazing!ReplyDelete
u put the glitter mix with the glue inside the jar right?ReplyDeleteReplies
yes, on the inside.Delete
The brush containers are fine and shouldn't make much of a mess but I feel like the phone case would leave traces of glitter everywhereeeeee. That's what would keep me from making it. :( Does anyone know what would be good to use as a good topcoat so it doesn't tranfer glitter onto everything??ReplyDeleteReplies
I made this awhile ago but the iPhone was completely fine and did not leave traces of glitter. If you look at my clutch that I did previously (I linked to it in the post) it's the same and does not have any fall out.Delete
I think people have used some top coat spray but if you do a good enough mixture of mod podge to glitter, the mod podge acts as the glue to the pieces of glitter and it just doesn't fall off. I've done this technique to several things, not just jars and have not had a problem. Hopefully it works for you too!
Great idea! So the glitter phone case doesnt leak glitter? I made one a while back not using this technique and whenever I use it my hands end up getting covered with glitter, any suggestions on how to fix this?ReplyDeleteReplies
I think you just have to make sure that your mod podge and glitter is fully mixed together. Also, make sure each coat is fully dry in between each application. I still have the iPhone case and it still looks exactly the same as it did when I made it almost a year ago! No glitter fall out and it doesn't get on my hands.Delete
Does it matter what kind of phone case is used, like rubber case, hard case, shiny case, etc or will the glitter mixture stick to any surface? Thanks a lot! I can't wait to try this.ReplyDeleteReplies
I used a hard plastic case which I think is probably best but since mod podge can basically stick to almost anything you should be pretty safe with any material. It just might be harder to get a smooth even surface with something like rubber. Hope that helps!Delete
This is so cool! I know this seems a stupid question but how long has all the glitter lasted on the case - just because I actually purchased one online and it was terrible and all the glitter fell off!ReplyDelete
My case looks exactly the same but I don't use it for long periods of time. I switch my phone cases out almost every 2 weeks. (I have a lot of cases!) :) I really didn't have any problems with glitter falling off of mine.Delete
I definitely am one that has a glitter addiction ever since I took normal glass ornaments and glittered the inside and did the same thing for mason jars to make center pieces! We found that when you are doing deep concave surfaces like jars or ornaments you can use pledge floor wax and roll it around, dump it out and then apply glitter and it sticks! It's a much cheaper option than modgepodge which you can then save to make cute phone cases or other projects!ReplyDeleteReplies
good tip, thanks for sharing!Delete
Thanks so much for posting this. I tried it out on a little glass jar I wanted to sit on my desk and hold paperclips. It turned out great! I liked it so much, now I'm glittering my tape dispenser to match. :)ReplyDelete
Cute idea! I love Modge Podge. To get out a little wax from jars. I do this and it works everytime!!ReplyDelete
Run your tap water as hot as you can get it and fill up the rest of the candle jar then pour a squirt of liquid detergent on it and let it set overnight. When it cools, it seperates from the glass and you can pop it right out :)
And it does leave glitter everywhere? how did you do that? just the modge podge keeps it together? cool!ReplyDelete
I just glittered a letter "g" for my wreath and wss pleasantly surprised to have a non glitter shedding addition to my yarn wreath!ReplyDelete
When my candles are almost dead, i put them into the freezer to get the wax out. After a few days in there. the wax usually pops right out in one piece. But i love the idea..I might have to glitter my otter box this summer!! :)ReplyDelete

|Stellarium 0.11.0
|Home · All Namespaces · All Classes · Functions · Coding Style · Scripting · Plugins · File Structure
The increasing number of contributors require that we clearly define coding rules and guidelines. Although for historical reasons the current code of Stellarium does not always comply to these rules, they should now be respected for any addition or modification of the code.
#define MIN_WIDTH 3 static const QString VERSION = "0.10.1";
[--tab-][--tab-][--tab-]someFunction(param, ... [--tab-][--tab-][--tab-][ spaces ]moreparams, ...);
void MyClass::myMethod(int x) { if (x>10) { cout << "You won." << endl; } }
enums should follow the QT conventions. i.e. CamelCase with First letter capitalization for both enum type and enum values. Document with doxygen. The //!< tag can be used to add descriptions on the same line as an enum value, e.g.
//! @enum EnumName Here is a description of the enum enum EnumName { EnumValueOne, //!< Some doxygen description of EnumValueOne EnumValueTwo, //!< Some doxygen description of EnumValueTwo EnumValueThree //!< Some doxygen description of EnumValueThree };
astyle --style=ansi -tU source.cpp
The extensions are .hpp/.cpp for C++ headers/code, .h/.c for C headers/code. C++ files should have the same name and case than the class they contain. For example class StelFontMgr should be declared in file StelFontMgr.hpp and implemented in StelFontMgr.cpp.
Stellarium source code should be documented with Doxygen. From Doxygen webpage:
"Doxygen is a documentation system for C++, C, Java, [...] It can generate an on-line documentation browser (in HTML) and/or an off-line reference manual (in LaTeX) from a set of documented source files. [...] The documentation is extracted directly from the sources, which makes it much easier to keep the documentation consistent with the source code. [...] You can also visualize the relations between the various elements by means of include dependency graphs, inheritance diagrams, and collaboration diagrams, which are all generated automatically.
All public and protected classes and methods from Stellarium should be fully documented in the headers (.hpp).
There are different ways to comment C++ code with Doxygen, in Stellarium use the following for headers files:
//! Find and return the list of at most maxNbItem objects auto-completing the passed object I18n name. //! @param objPrefix the case insensitive first letters of the searched object. //! @param maxNbItem the maximum number of returned object names. //! @return a vector of matching object name by order of relevance, or an empty vector if nothing match. QList<QString> listMatchingObjectsI18n(const QString& objPrefix, unsigned int maxNbItem=5) const;
Brief descriptions are single line only, and stop at the first full stop (period). Any subsequent sentences which occur before @param or a similar tag are considered to be part of a detailed description.
For methods definitions in .cpp files, a simpler comment for each method is sufficient:
// Find and return the list of at most maxNbItem objects auto-completing the // passed object I18n name. QList<QString> listMatchingObjectsI18n(const QString& objPrefix, unsigned int maxNbItem=5) const { etc..
Use C++ replacement for C functions and Qt replacements for C++ function/STL wherever possible.
std::string or
char *
#include <stdio.h> // Bad #include <cstdio> // Good #include <QString> // Good
std::vector or
std::map, they are extremely efficient. Documentation is there.
#define RADIUS 12 // Bad static const int RADIUS = 12; // Good
double cosLat = cos(lat); // Bad double cosLat = std::cos(lat); // Good
Translatable strings are translated using the Translator class, which is a C++ wrapper around gettext. The strings should be marked using the
q_() macro: it takes a QString in English and returns the translation as a QString using the current global language.
QString::arg() instead. Concatenated strings are very hard (or even impossible) to translate.
When using Qt format strings, if a letter follows a digit immediately, xgettext might erroneously mark the extracted string as a C format string. ''Depending on the actual translation, this might cause errors when uploading the message catalog to Rosetta, or when compiling it to binary format.'' To prevent this, add an
xgettext:no-c-format comment to the line preceding the format string:
// xgettext:no-c-format text = q_("Distance: %1AU").arg(distance);
Translatable text should obey English typo conventions. For example, there should be no space before the colon:
std::cout << "Error while opening file " << qPrintable(myFileName) << "." << std::endl; // Bad std::cerr << "Error while opening file " << qPrintable(myFileName) << "." << std::endl; // Good

Ritual: it's got a bit of bad rap. To many in the modern world, the very word "ritual" conjures images of rote and inscrutable actions, meaningless ceremonies, dusty and lifeless tradition. In fact, "lifeless," "meaningless," "dry" and "rote" probably cover about 80% of what most people think about ritual. And from my extensive research (that is, hanging out and talking with people), I've learned that a lot of today's young adults grew up in traditions where the rituals did seem pretty dry and purposeless. But ritual has been around a lot longer than today's religious institutions, and it doesn't have to be pointless. One of my very favorite anthropologists, Roy Rappaport, articulated one good reason why: ritual boosts the signal-to-noise ratio in human societies.

"What it has felt like to be writing for the young during the last thirty years. . . . can all be summarised in one word—Lucky. I feel extraordinarily fortunate in a whole number of ways."—Peter Dickinson
Peter Dickinson, two-time winner both of England's prestigious Carnegie Medal and the Whitbread Children's Award, is one of Britain's greatest storytellers, and the author of many novels for young readers and adults. His books include the Boston Globe–Horn Book Honor Novel, Eva, as well as the Printz Honor Book The Ropemaker and many other award-winning titles.
Peter Dickinson is a tall, elderly, bony, beaky, wrinkled sort of fellow, with a lot of untidy grey hair and a weird hooting voice—in fact he looks and sounds a bit like Gandalf's crazy twin, but he's only rather absent-minded, probably because he's thinking about something else. Day-dreaming, mostly.
He was born in the middle of Africa, within earshot of the Victoria Falls. Baboons sometimes came into the school playground. When people went swimming in the Zambezi they did it in a big wooden cage let down into the water, so that the crocs couldn't get at them. For the hot weather the family went south to his grandfather's ostrich farm in South Africa.
Then the family came back to England so that he and his brothers could go to English schools, where they taught him mostly Latin and Greek. He didn't have an English lesson after he was twelve, and nobody ever told him to write a story. He was fairly good at games.
He's led an ordinary kind of life—not much by way of adventures, but some silly things. Such as? Well, when he had to join the army, just after World War II, they managed to turn him into two people; so he was bashing away at infantry training at a camp in Northern Ireland when two sea-sick military policemen showed up and arrested him for being a deserter from a different camp in the south of England, where his other self was supposed to be bashing away.
He was tutoring a boy in a huge old castle in Scotland when the butler (it was that sort of household) said to him at dinner one day "Ah, sir, it's a long time since we heard screams coming from the West Wing!" (Peter's screams, not the boy's.)
And he was knocked down by a tram on his way to the interview for his first job and arrived all covered with blood and dirt, but they gave him the job because he was the only candidate. He stayed there seventeen years.
He and his first wife had two daughters and two sons, and he now has six grandchildren. He lives in a ramshackle old house in a green valley in the south of England, with his second wife, the American writer Robin McKinley, and three whippets. Now, they really are crazy.
On Writing
Peter says he didn't become a writer. He just is one, and always has been, ever since he can remember, the way a goldfish is a goldfish and can't be anything else. Go to a zoo and look at one of the big birds, a condor, say, a creature made to soar above the Andes. They've probably clipped one of its wings so that it can't hurt itself trying to fly around its cage, but it's still a creature made to soar above the Andes. If you somehow stopped Peter writing, he'd still be a writer.
But he was a poet and a journalist before he started on books. He tried a murder story first, but got stuck half way through. Then he had a science-fictiony kind of nightmare, and decided to turn it into a children's story, mainly to see if writing it would unstick the other book. (It did. That book won a prize for the best murder story of the year, and the children's book is now being made into a TV film, though it was written over thirty years ago.)
Since then he's written getting on fifty books, almost all of them on a little old portable typewriter—one draft, to see what he's got, and what else he needs to know and so on; then a bit of research; then a complete rewrite, beginning to end; and then, if all's well, only a bit more tinkering. Sometimes it takes a few month, sometimes a year or more. He's just moved over to a PC. He's still getting used it. It makes writing seem a very different kind of process—easier in some ways, harder in others.
The ideas come from all over the place—day-dreams, sometimes, or a kid on a long car-trip saying "Tell us a new story, dad." Or something he's heard or read—a voice on the radio saying "Even a hardened government soldier may hesitate a fatal half-second before he guns down a child." (That was AK, about a boy guerrilla in Africa.) For the best of them it feels as if the book had knocked on the door of his mind and said "Write me." Then he'll spend half a year or more letting the stranger in and finding who or what it is.
He writes all sorts of books. His last book was a long exotic fantasy—magicians and unicorns and so on—called The Ropemaker, and in May there's going to be his first collaboration with his wife, Robin McKinley, called Water; Tales of the Elemental Spirits, in which each of them has written three stories about some of the magical creatures that inhabit our rivers and seas. (They hope to do the other three elements over the next few years.) A story Peter was working on for the Fire volume insisted on expanding to book length (working title The Tears of the Salamander) which will be his next book out. And he's now working on a short book called Inside Grandad, about a modern boy who . . . but no, he'd better find out who the stranger is before he starts talking about him.
"Peter Dickinson is one of the real masters of children's literature."—Philip Pullman
"A challenging magical adventure for the thinking reader."—Starred, Publishers Weekly
"While on one level this tale is a fantasy, it is also a wonderful coming-of-age story."—Starred, School Library Journal
"Dickinson works his own magic in a thoroughly compelling tale that delves into the nature of both magic and time."—Starred, Booklist

After six months of test-driving, we crown the winner and some very honorable mentions
The Man's Guide to Marriage: A Timeline
There's no better time to drive in America. After six months of testing, we present this year's winner — and some very honorable mentions.More
We spent the last six months driving dozens of cars. Sedans that soothe you in supple luxury, then, with a twitch of your ankle, blast you off into space. Drop-tops and muscle cars that cannonball down the road yet sip gas as if through a cocktail straw, proof that the future can be fast, furious — and responsible. After all this driving, one thing became clear: Mustangs, gullwings, diesels, fast-as-hell hybrids — there is no better time to be a car lover in America, no better time to throw down a chunk of salary so you can beat the wind. So rather than just crowning the Esquire Car of the Year, our annual award for the most stunning and aggressive yet attainable vehicle of the year, we decided to honor the ten other best cars we drove, too. These are the Esquire Car Awards for Automotive Excellence. These are the most joyous, breathtaking, sophisticated cars you can buy today.
As the automobile has evolved over the past century, so has our ability to measure its talents. Somewhere someone has stuck a computerized, white-coat-verified test instrument on the vehicle of your choice, and its performance has been recorded. Speed, grip, handling, even the timbre of an engine's howl — we can measure that stuff down to a fraction, far past the bounds of argument or sanity. And yet this misses the point. Cars are subjective, emotional things. Car awards are even more subjective. Numbers and stats are starting points, but we believe that the Esquire Car of the Year should make you feel something deep in your gut. You should lust for it and dream about it, but it shouldn't be an impossible goal. It must be attainable for the average man. It should sit in front of your house or office without drawing attention to itself and tackle four seasons of day-to-day transportation with ease. Yet crucially, sometimes, without warning, it must make you snatch the keys off the wall, haul off to the country and just drive. We did just that, for hundreds of miles. We carved up mountain roads, slogged through traffic, blasted down interstates. And we have come to a conclusion: The Esquire Car of the Year is the 2010 Audi S4.
The Specs: 333-HP 3.0-liter V-6, 18/28 mpg, $45,900

Analysis & Opinions - New Perspectives Quarterly
A U.S.-Iran Deal Would Allow Enrichment for Non-Weapons Pledge
This op-ed was reprinted as "The US is Wrong about Iran. Cutting a Deal is the Only Win-Win Solution" by the Christian Science Monitor on January 14, 2011.
While "confidence-building" is the most important factor in the course of any nuclear negotiations which hope to succeed between Iran and the P5+1 group, the United States is talking about a new round of coercive sanctions against Iran. The U.S. objective in continuing the "sanctions for negotiations" policy aims at weakening the "nuclear consensus" inside Iran. However, if successful, this policy would have the reverse result, since the unraveling of the nuclear consensus that now exists within Iran would halt any progress on the diplomatic front.
For Iran, maintaining the capacity for "independent uranium enrichment" on its own soil means acquisition of a nuclear "capability." This endeavor is based on an important strategic objective around which all political blocs agree: the acceptance of Iran as a "nuclear state" by world powers. This consensus is a powerful, unassailable domestic reality that cannot be reversed. No political group in Iran today, reformist or otherwise, would dream of demanding the suspension of uranium enrichment.
Against the grain of this consensus, the U.S. has sought the suspension of any uranium enrichment capacity by Iran. This inflexible policy differs from the views held by the other P5+1 countries, namely the EU trio, Russia and China. These powers have gradually come to agree with Iran's right to enrichment on its native soil. In the Geneva negotiations last December, this right was implicitly accepted by all parties, including by the United States, as Secretary of State Hillary Clinton noted just before the negotiations got under way.
Despite this, the U.S. seems bent on trying to overturn that consensus both internationally and within Iran....

SAN FRANCISCO—The second full week in May was established in 1998 by the California Legislature to acknowledge the important contributions of citizens who devote their time in "making the cherished Right of trial by jury a reality." Superior courts throughout the state will celebrate Juror Appreciation Week, May 12–16.
"Serving on a jury is more than a civic responsibility—it is how each and every one of us provides access to justice for all," said Chief Justice Tani G. Cantil-Sakauye. "Jury service is where our citizens help to ensure one of our most important democratic ideals—that we are judged by a jury of our peers. Join me and the branch in thanking our jurors for their service to our courts and communities."
Annually, millions of Californians statewide participate in jury service:

Filed under: Mindfulness
Last week we focused on being a gratitude-seeker this holiday season. This week's tip is to focus on the positive. Optimistic Warfighters who "see the glass half-full" are less impacted by warzone stress, experience fewer mental health issues, and exhibit better health and resilience overall. The Defense Centers of Excellence (DCoE) defines optimism as "a set of beliefs that helps to focus your attention and behavior on the opportunities and possibilities of life." Everyone falls victim to negative or "the grass is greener" thinking at times, but negative thoughts create more negative thoughts. Learn to stay realistically positive. Optimistic thoughts are contagious too, so you'll be passing on positivity! The Comprehensive Soldier & Family Fitness program calls focusing on the positive a "hunt for the good stuff."
You can learn optimism in a variety of ways, such as focusing on what's positive and possible, taking advantage of opportunities that arise, and developing realistic expectations about outcomes. DCoE has specific suggestions on how to accomplish realistic optimism. And for more Mind Tactics to promote resilience, check out HPRC's Mental Resilience section.

'Daisy's Case' in Maryville to Be Reopened
(NEWSER) – All the attention worked: The Nodaway County prosecutor has asked for "Daisy's case," which centers around the alleged rapes of two teens in Maryville, Missouri, to be reopened. Robert Rice had initially dropped the charges against the suspects, but now he's asked a judge to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate the case. Until Daisy Coleman went on CNN saying she would testify, "the witnesses never told me that they were willing to cooperate and testify," Rice tells KCTV. "They understood that when they at that time invoked their 5th Amendment right, that by doing so was going to force the dismissal of the case, they understood that." (The families have denied this claim.)

Excellent, I am glad to see a more welcoming attitude emerging here.
My offer to make the backgrounds a bit less intrusive still stands, all you need to do is send me the images
Student Systems Administration and Network Engineering, second year.
Don't PM me with questions, unless very specific. Otherwise, use the forums so everyone can potentially benefit from it.
Thank you citruspas, for helping with the darkening of the binary image:
If you think the binary image is too intrusive. You can replace it with the darker image.
the new image is at the same Google page where the project is hosted.
replace it in this directory /usr/local/bin/Fern-Wifi-Cracker/resources/ or any directory you choose to place it.
the picture name is binary_2.png
replace the old with the new but with the same name "binary_2.png"

I know it's not much, but it kind of bothered me. Figured I might as well try and help out (can't really code except some bash scripting but I can do some photoshopping)
Student Systems Administration and Network Engineering, second year.
Don't PM me with questions, unless very specific. Otherwise, use the forums so everyone can potentially benefit from it.
I was running fern.py directly... tried running execute.py and it seems to work correctly... maybe a short "README" to suggest how to run it?
Also it needs a function to shut down and clean up after itself. There is no good way to shut down WEP cracking after it is started without leaving aireplay-ng and airodump-ng running... so if you want to change attack modes or if you don't find the WEP key you have to manually clean up.
Also it creates new VAPs every time its started - not necessarily a bad thing but another thing to manually clean up.
A "stop" function that would kill all the stray processes would be very helpful, along with a button to manually create the VAPs would be good.
But I do think this is a very good start on a useful tool.
NOTICE Killall airodump-ngCode:def key_found(self): self.cracking_label.setEnabled(True) self.cracking_label.setText('Cracking Encryption') self.finished_label.setEnabled(True) self.finished_label.setText('Finished') self.wep_key_label.setEnabled(True) self.wep_key_label.setText('%s'%(WEP)) self.wep_status_label.setEnabled(True) self.wep_status_label.setText('Wep Encryption Broken') commands.getstatusoutput('killall airodump-ng') commands.getstatusoutput('killall airmon-ng')
It does not kill processes until attack wep key is found.. which is logical.. it the dump files were deleted during attack.. wep key would never be found..
You find "killall" command on numerous lines in the source code.
And the cleanup is also always done.. But when a new attack is initiated attack.. this is logical beacause there would be times where aircrack was not able to find key from your dictionary file, and you need to get the dump file so you can use it with an exetrnal cracker.. The dump file will be there until you press the new attack button
On line 498 you can find something like that
The cleanup "rm" is also found in some numerous sections.Code:def scan_wep(self,arg,arg2): monitor = str(reader('/tmp/fern-log/monitor.log')) commands.getstatusoutput('rm -r /tmp/fern-log/*.csv') commands.getstatusoutput('rm -r /tmp/fern-log/*.cap') commands.getstatusoutput('rm -r /tmp/fern-log/WPA/*.csv') commands.getstatusoutput('rm -r /tmp/fern-log/WPA/*.cap')
THE README file i completely forgot..
The Scan Button is a dual button, it can also be used to stop scan by pressing again

Grizzlies' Noonan drives in eight runs
Giants prospect eclipses franchise record, homers twice
By Andrew Pentis / Special to MLB.com | May 20, 2012 3:45 PM ET
Only Noonan was thinking sacrifice fly.
The former first-round pick smacked a grand slam, giving him a career-high -- and franchise-record -- eight RBIs and capping the Triple-A Fresno Grizzlies' 11-5 victory over the Round Rock Express.
The win sealed a four-game sweep and was the visitors' fifth straight overall.
Noonan's eight RBIs eclipsed the previous club mark of seven, set by Dante Powell on May 26, 1998 and matched by John Bowker on Aug. 16, 2009.
The key to Noonan's day?
"I saw the fastball well, which is always good," said the shortstop, who turned 23 earlier this month."
That's the pitch the left-handed hitter found to his liking in a 2-1 count against Express starter -- and Rangers' No. 2 prospect -- Martin Perez in the third inning. His two-run shot cleared the right-center field fence.
"I saw a lot of sliders in that at-bat," Noonan said, "then I got in a good hitter's count, saw the fastball good out of his hand and was able to pop it out.
"We did a good job of laying off [Perez's] slider and taking advantage of the fastball."
Batting sixth, Noonan also singled home two runs in the first and led off the eighth with a double. In between, he faced right-handed reliever Sean Green in that eventful sixth-inning matchup.
"It was [against] a sidearm, three-quarter guy," Noonan said. "All his pitches were outside. It was a 3-0 count and I took a fastball and then looked for it again 3-1."
The grand slam was the Grizzlies' second of the season. Joaquin Arias did the deed on April 9 in Las Vegas.
Noonan had not registered a multi-homer game in his six-year pro career. He eclipsed his previous single-game high by three RBIs after tripling, doubling and plating five runs for Class A Augusta on April 19, 2008.
Noonan attributed his re-emergence at the plate -- he batted .237 in 2010 and .229 in 2011 -- simply to aggressiveness. He is batting .326 with 13 extra-base hits and 26 RBIs through 37 games this season.
Whatever the reason, he's performing at the right time. The big league club is without All-Star second baseman Freddy Sanchez and, despite the slick fielding of light-hitting shortstop Brandan Crawford, both middle-infield positions seem in a fluid state. Emmanuel Burriss, Arias and recent Fresno callup Charlie Culberson have all taken turns.
"It's always on the back of my mind," Noonan said. "I can't help but think of it."
Although he drove in all but three of his club's runs Sunday, Noonan was not alone. Third baseman Conor Gillaspie -- a 2008 first-round pick -- and veteran outfielder Todd Linden each had two hits. Linden, who also scored three runs, went 12-for-18 with nine RBIs during the series.
Perez (3-4) was charged with seven runs -- four earned -- on eight hits and four walks over three innings. The left-hander has surrendered seven runs in consecutive starts, both losses.
Fresno counterpart Andrew Kown (4-1) limited the Express to three runs on seven hits over five frames.
Round Rock's Ryan Spilborghs and Yangervis Solarte both went 2-for-4 to extend their hitting streaks to 14 and six games, respectively. Solarte has hit safely in 28 of his last 29 contests.
The Express have lost 10 of their last 11 games and were swept at home for the first time since Tacoma took four straight in August 2009.

Chili Pepper's bassist Flea voices Disney cartoon character
Listen to Red Hot Chili Peppers on iHeartRadio
Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea has always been one of rock's most animated characters, and now he's stepping into the world of animation again.
"Rolling Stone" says he voices a character known as the Milk Bandit in an upcoming episode of Disney's "Sheriff Callie's Wild West."
Flea's trouble-making feline alter-ego arrives in the town of "Nice and Friendly Corners" just as Sheriff Callie -- voiced by pop singer Mandy Moore -- leaves to investigate another thief, who turns out to be fake.
Flea also voiced character Donnie in the Nickelodeon show "The Wild Thornberrys."
The special episode of "Sheriff Callie's Wild West" is scheduled to air this Friday at 9:00 a.m. Eastern on Disney Junior.

Chocolate gifts are some of our favourite kind of gifts at IWOOT towers. There's just no getting around the fact that chocolate is very very tasty. The levels of tasty present within chocolate it makes a great gift for a kid , gift for a man , gift for a woman and gift for anybody else . Aside from the multiple health benefits of chocolate (somebody told us that once and we've been holding onto it ever since) there's another clear reason for buying it as a gift. It's pretty much the social norm, on receiving an edible gift, to offer to share it with the gift giver. #winning.
Sweets are a lot like chocolate. They make great gifts for grandparents and gifts for kids . Equally, for those thinking about either becoming a grandparent or reverting back to a state of childlike glee, sweets are the way forward.
I know, I know ... it's always the occasion for chocolate and sweets right? We agree but there are some times where it's almost foolish to not be eating chocolate and sweets. These make great stocking filler gifts , secret Santa gifts , gifts for teachers and gifts for students . Get them something tasty and get a little bit yourself!

I received the following in my inbox from Advocates For Self-Government and wanted to pass it along.
Have you made your New Year's Resolutions? Several years ago, Harry Browne — 1996 and 2000 Libertarian Party presidential candidate, world-renowned libertarian speaker and writer, and very good friend of the Advocates — made his. The result was a compact how-to of effective libertarian communication, by one of history's most persuasive advocates of the ideas of liberty. I would like to once again share these resolutions with you. If you're like me, you'll find them inspiring and uplifting. I hope you will add them to your own resolutions — and share them with other libertarians.
A Libertarian's New Year's Resolutions
by Harry Browne
1. I resolve to sell liberty by appealing to the self-interest of each prospect, rather than preaching to people and expecting them to suddenly adopt my ideas of right and wrong.
2. I resolve to keep from being drawn into arguments or debates. My purpose is to inspire people to want liberty — not to prove that they're wrong.
3. I resolve to listen when people tell me of their wants and needs, so I can help them see how a free society will satisfy those needs.
4. I resolve to identify myself, when appropriate, with the social goals someone may seek — a cleaner environment, more help for the poor, a less divisive society — and try to show him that those goals can never be achieved by government, but will be well served in a free society.
5. I resolve to be compassionate and respectful of the beliefs and needs that lead people to seek government help. I don't have to approve of their subsidies or policies — but if I don't acknowledge their needs, I have no hope of helping them find a better way to solve their problem.
6. No matter what the issue, I resolve to keep returning to the central point: how much better off the individual will be in a free society.
7. I resolve to acknowledge my good fortune in having been born an American. Any plan for improvement must begin with a recognition of the good things we have. To speak only of America's defects will make me a tiresome crank.
8. I resolve to focus on the ways America could be so much better with a very small government — not to dwell on all the wrongs that exist today.
9. I resolve to cleanse myself of hate, resentment, and bitterness. Such things steal time and attention from the work that must be done.
10. I resolve to speak, dress, and act in a respectable manner. I may be the first libertarian someone has encountered, and it's important that he get a good first impression. No one will hear the message if the messenger is unattractive.
11. I resolve to remind myself that someone's "stupid" opinion may be an opinion I once held. If Ican grow, why can't I help himgrow?
12. I resolve not to raise my voice in any discussion. In a shouting match, no one wins, no one changes his mind, and no one will be inspired to join our quest for a free society.
13. I resolve not to adopt the tactics of Republicans and Democrats. They use character assassination, evasions, and intimidation because they have no real benefits to offer Americans. We, on the other hand, are offering to set people free — and so we can win simply by focusing on the better life our proposals will bring.
14. I resolve to be civil to my opponents and treat them with respect. However anyone chooses to treat me, it's important that I be a better person than my enemies.
Harry passed away in March of 2006. If enough of us follow Harry's advice, we can make 2010 the best year yet for the libertarian movement. There could be no greater tribute to Harry — and no greater gift to America! Happy New Year to all our friends, readers and visitors. 🙂

There's a good chance you don't know what Moshlings are, or that their ranks include a singer and member of the Moptop Tweenybops species called Dustbin Beaver. But if you're eight years old, or the pestered parent of a pre-teen, you'll know all of this, and that Moshi Monsters, a social-networking and gaming franchise for children, has become a virtual empire whose legions of Moshlings have colonised toy shops – and have now launched an assault on the music charts.
At the Oxford Street branch of HMV in London yesterday, hundreds of children dragged their parents to the release of Moshi Monsters: Music Rox!, the monsters' first album.
They brandished books, sticker albums and Moshling figures, hoping to get them signed by Zack Binspin, an actor in a furry suit (and, in Moshi world, a friend of Dustbin's), who performed his single "Moptop Tweenybop (My Hair's Too Long)".
The popularity of Moshi Monsters is startling. The franchise was founded in east London in 2007 by Michael Acton Smith, chief executive of Mind Candy. Today, in 150 countries, more than 60 million children, mostly aged between seven and 12, log on to the Moshi Monsters website. They play games, chat with each other, solve puzzles and buy merchandise.
The new album was available to pre-order on Amazon from 5 March and has remained in its top five since, beating Madonna in pre-sales in its first week. Figures collected by toy industry analysts, NPD, show the Moshi licence is second in sales only to Star Wars, ahead of the Hello Kitty and Thomas the Tank Engine franchises. Three of the five top-selling toys bear the Moshi name and sales in 2011 were worth £22m. Mind Candy is valued at £125m, while Acton Smith has been called "Walt Disney 2.0". But Moshi's dominance in toy shops is only part of the Moshi story.
Acton Smith, 37, made his name by co-founding Firebox.com, which sells novelty gifts including a shot-glass chess set. With his monsters, he has not only cracked an immeasurably lucrative pre-teen market, but has also bridged the gap between the online and offline worlds in a way that giants such as Disney have arguably failed to do. Moreover, Moshi has done this with the complicity of parents, who might ordinarily resist a social network designed for children. "Lots of web companies have learned that the teen market is not as lucrative as they'd thought," says Mike Butcher, the European editor of the technology news site, TechCrunch. "But school-age kids with access to their parents credit cards are, and Moshi has been very clever to exploit the franchise potential with toymakers, who have traditionally moved very slowly into the online world."
Peter Jenkins is chief executive of Toyology, a toy-industry news site, and father of two Moshling fans. "Moshi appeals to children because it lets them feel as if they are in control of their own environment," he says in a break from watching the animation The Pirates! at the cinema with his daughters. "It has brought together strands of licensing from toys and games to create a world kids become deeply enveloped in. And, as a parent, I have never had an issue with anything I've seen on the site." Moshi's only brush with controversay came last October. Lady Gaga won an injunction at the High Court to stop a Moshling called Lady Goo Goo releasing a track called "The Moshi Dance". Goo Goo, a parody of pop singer Gaga, was silenced and neither she nor Beaver (inspired by Justin Bieber) appears on the new album. A spokesperson for Mind Candy said discussions with Lady Gaga's lawyers were ongoing, adding: "The team thought it would be best to steer clear [of Goo Goo and Beaver] for the debut album."
Nancy Donaldson is 10 and loves Moshi Monsters. "I don't really know why, it's just a really big thing in my class," she says from her home in London. "I have lots of figures and nearly all of the cards and I go on the website about three times a week to do missions and chat to my friends." Nancy says she plans to suggest quietly that her dad, Nick, buys the new album. "We'll see," Nick says.Reuse content

Discussion in 'Fan Zone' started by sunbum, Dec 7, 2012.
keep hearing mixed reports, has a definitive decision been made? We will need him!
Rat has turned into one of the "glass" players for Dallas.
mike fisher @fishsports Jay Ratliff goes inside bfor practice starts. No-go for him. His situation w/ #cowboys suddenly has an uncomfortable feel. @1053thefan
mike fisher @fishsports
Re Ratliff: like Granny used to say, 'Somethin in the milk ain't clean.' #Cowboys @1053thefan
Seems like he's been unhappy with the team for years now, I think he's a goner after the season
Ratliff has been more bark than bite for sometime now, time to turn the page.
what makes you say this? I don't see any reason for him to be upset - he has gotten two big contracts and they let him play the position he wants.
Not only does it seem he is not playing, but mike fisher labeled him a malcontent on the fan about an hour ago.
Apparently Ratliff had a huge blow up in the locker room after the eagles game and mike fisher is saying there is an awkward vibe around him and the team.
I have no idea what any of this is or means, but geez now Ratliff is a locker room problem? What in the world is going on?
How much do you want to bet it was concerning him missing these game. I am not in any position to judge injuries. But I am simply going to guess that the team thought he could give them something...and he chose to sit. Just my guess.
Cats in his situation will not mind getting cut. He has been around since 2005. They have not won. Someone will pick him up if he gets cut. Gives him a chance to get another signing bonus. And he will probably find his way to a team that has a better chance to win.
That doesn't describe Ratliff though. He has never been anything like that, te exact opposite actually.
Very rare to keep cores together this long that don't produce. You look at the teams that actually win...even they break the band up. But we have kept the 2005 band together for a while. Sprinkle in Witten, Romo and Miles...and we have had some guys here for awhile that have become to accustomed to losing. And for competitors...irritation will eventually set in. I don't think there should many players in Dallas that are untouchable...yet we have them. And that is hard to explain when you consider the results.
Nick eatman just said Ratliff won't even make the trip to cincy.
I think part of the problem is that Jerry over-values the talent on this club. I believe that the Japanese have a saying "tell a lie enough times and it becomes the truth". Jerry has lied to himself, as well as a large number of fans, and bought into the notion that this team is close to contending for a title. I think the reality is that this group of players may never compete for a title.
What does that have to do with whatever happened this week with Ratliff?
That is a good question.
Maybe you shouldn't hand out a 5 year $40 million dollar contract ($18 million guaranteed) to a player with a declining skillset. Giving out that type of contract to a 25 year old is one thing, but handing out that deal to a 30 year old is another. Especially when that player has been but a shell of his former self and is at an age where injuries are more likely than not.
This team has way too many holes to fill. It'll be a decade before we can contend.
Brandon George @dmn_george
#Dallas #Cowboys NT Jay #Ratliff won't play Sunday against the #Cincinnati #Bengals, DC Rob Ryan said.
Nick Eatman @nickeatman
DT Jay Ratliff is not expected to play Sunday against bengals .. Likely wont even make the trip because of nagging groin injury
No kidding. What the hell is going on?
Anyway, I can't believe some people are basically calling Jay soft, a quitter, whatever. This guy with Witten probably has more heart and guts than anyone on the team. How anyone can be a fan of this team and not know this is beyond me.
I guess the answer is that some people think just because a player gets paid, it's fair game to call him anything in the book regardless of validity.
And BTW, I don't know how you feel, theebs, but I don't completely trust Fisher. He's basically been a mouthpiece for Cuban for years and now it almost seems like he's doing the same for the Cowboys. Or at least is trying to become that.
Even on dallascowboys.com, the staff is saying that Ratliff will probably be cut due to having a bad contract. It seems like the boys are getting ready to move on from him. I would try to work out a trade though and not just cut him. Even if Dallas only gets a 7th rounder at least they can dictate where he plays. Ratliff would be an absolute terror on a 4-3 team and I would hate to see him playing for New York or Philly where he would be a much better fit. Ratliff still has some years left if he can find the right fit, and I would prefer he doesn't terrorize Dallas by playing for a division rival.
Good thing they got him locked up long term.
I think it's more likely that the team would keep him out of a game and it would tick Jay off, honestly. The guy's got heart. That's never been the issue.
I hate this sort of dysfunction, though. Especially from a player I really like, and one I was hoping could still be a difference maker for us. The rest of this story will be interesting when it comes out.

'Tyler Ennis showed Adler Mannheim why he is one of the premiere playmakers in the NHL. Ennis finished off his night with 3 points (2+1) and spent the majority of night tormenting the opposing skaters. The highlight of Ennis' night was his first goal that came after an Adler turnover. The loose puck found Luke Adam at center ice who fired a pass across the zone to a streaking Ennis. Ennis made two moves and slide the puck past Mannheim goaltender Frederick Brathwaite.'

Using Frankincense and other CO2's for Skin Care

Using Frankincense and other CO2's for Skin Care
I've started putting a little
Frankincense CO2 essential oil
in my skin care blends after seeing the following science report (pasted at the bottom...it discusses boswellic acids from the resin, which are in fact present in the CO2 Frankincense oils. I only use a little, as with most essential oils, to avoid irritation (like I can use A LOT of Sea Buckthorn, Carrot Root or Rosehip CO2's).
A blend I've been working with lately, which my skin really likes, is as follows:
- A 2 ounce base of 1/3rd each Tamanu, Rosehip Seed and Argan. Sometimes I'll use 1/4th each of these plus virgin coconut.
- 16 drops Frankincense essential oil (the CO2 blend of both species Ananda carries (which I'm guessing mimics the amount of boswellic acid content of the report added below)
- 1ml (33 drops) each of
Carrot Root
Sea Buckthorn
(for a night time formula, I'll add
CO2, but it leaves the skin pretty pink for a while as all its antioxidants absorb -- it's REALLY good if you've been in the Sun though -- the richer the color of the oil, the higher the content of very effective antioxidants).
- And finally 16 drops each of
German Chamomile
CO2 and EITHER Helichrysum or Rosemary Verbenone.
The Chamomile is very anti-inflammatory, mentioned as an important factor in skin aging, and the Helichrysum and Rosemary Verbenone both contain ketones which supposedly stimulate skin regeneration.
In the book, "Making Aromatherapy Creams and Lotions" the author mentions a "CO2 Crew", where she includes German Chamomile, Rosehip and Sea Buckthorn CO2 essential oils in virtually everything, because of their great effects for skin health and beauty.
ENJOY! I hope this helps inspire someone to try making their own formulas. It's fun, and they're really very nice -- like "high end" skin care products.
OH YEAH -- the Frankincense...this is copied from PubMed, a report showing noticeable improvement in skin texture from using Frankincense extract.
Dermatolic Therapeutics
2010 Jan-Feb;23 Suppl 1:S28-32.
Topical Boswellic acids for treatment of photoaged skin.
Dermatology Department, University of Brescia, Brescia, Italy.
Boswellic acids (BAs) are pentacyclic triterpenes extracted from the gum resins of the tropical tree Boswellia serrata. They are orally administered in traditional Indian medicine for the treatment of several inflammatory disease and cancer because of their anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory activities as well as stimulatory effects on fibroblasts. The present authors have investigated efficacy, tolerability, and safety of a base cream containing 0.5% BAs in the treatment of clinical manifestations of photoaging of facial skin with a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, split-face study. Fifteen female volunteers applied the creams with or without BAs on the half sides of the face once daily for 30 days. Significant improvements of the Dover's global score for photoaging, tactile roughness, and fine lines, as well as, with noninvasive diagnostic techniques, an increase of elasticity, a decrease of sebum excretion, and a change of echographic parameters were observed with topical BAs in comparison with placebo. The treatment was always well tolerated without adverse effects. The present findings seem to indicate that topical application of BAs may represent a suitable treatment option for selected features of skin photoaging.

Re: Using Frankincense and other CO2's for Skin Care
Can I ask you something? Is your skin dry, combination or oily? I want to make my own blend too, mostly for fade some scarring and improve the overall texture of my skin, but I have combination skin with a quite oily t-zone. I've read Tamanu is quite heavy for combination/oily skin types, but great for scars. How do you find Tamanu? Do you think can I use Tamanu on my combination skin? The same question goes to Carrot Root and Sea Buckthorn. I have a carrier blend of Hemp, Pomegranate, Argan and Rosehip, all oils that I've tried and are very light and good for my skin, I've also read great things about them, especially of Pomegranate and Rosehip, do you think is Tamanu necessary? On the other hand, do you believe is Frankincense a must or with Helichrysum should be enough?

Re: Using Frankincense and other CO2's for Skin Care
An increase in elasticity is remarkable. The elastin is in the deeper levels below the epidermis. I have begun to drink white tea each day as it knocks back the action of elastase which digests/eats up elastin especially after 30. Thank you lots for the post and the research info.
Frankinsense will be in my skin care when I compose it as well as my perfume,... maybe frankincense and benchmark thyme are the beginning of it. My standby perfume is Nut from Yve st laurent which has incense etc but base is frankincense also called olibanum in the perfumery industry. ( cardamon, bergamot/orchid, incense/ frankincense)

Re: Using Frankincense for Skin Care/oils..
I use NZ lanolin on my skin and hair as it is human bio identical and absorbed right in. So hypoallergenic. As a teenager I worked casually in pharmacy when ointments were made by using a mortar and pestle, pills, anhydrous lanolin and whatever e.g. rosewater... I will consider using it as a base and perhaps adding a little hydrosol and then the rest of the e.oils. maybe a little carrier oil too to make the consistency.

Uhm .. I tried with MySQl, but my laptop didn't like it and yada yada yada, so i made a work-around with postgresql :-)
You can find my solution here: http://teh-geek.com/?p=136
hey all i cant seem to connect to a db or create one i get the following:

Many thanks i will give it a go.
pretty similar but you could try this too ---> http://www.backtrack-linux.org/forum...ostgresql.html
Try running db_connect –y /opt/framework3/config/database.yml at an msf> prompt. This will connect you to the built-in postgresql instance that's mentioned in 2901119's link above. In order for the db_connect command above to work, you'll need to start msfconsole from the gui menu option.
If I could figure out how to scuba dive & hack at the same time, there would be nothing I couldn't do...
Ensure that the mysql client is running?? -
/$ cd /etc/init.d
/$ ./mysql start
Might be worth trying.
Then the connect string should be something like db_connect root:toor@<ipaddress>/<optionalinstancename>
if the DB is not found, it should create one.
i tried with http://teh-geek.com/?p=136 but now successful! I much love bt5! WHAT TO DO?
