I decided long ago that "New Year Resolutions" only set myself up for failure. Therefore, I no longer make them. If there is something that needs resolved in my life, I do not wait for January. On the other hand, setting goals are important and what better incentive than a neew year, to sit down and map things out.
However I couldn't help but notice that on the list you put
"have more sex"
More Sex must be calculated and planned because 'willy-nilly' or 'free-for-all' sex is dangerous and if you jump in without safety gear, the sex parts could catch something and rot off.

LOL!! I was being sarcastic, I don't plan my life that far ahead of time, and I never make lists, in actuality, when an idea hits me I drop everthing and get it done (which is not always the practical thing to do) because I know tomorrow I'll be distracted by a different idea.
I really don't need to make resolutions, I don't spend much time debating wheteher I should do something or not, if I feel passionate enough about something, it WILL get done, whatever the cost.
There's nothing for me to quit because I'm not addicted to anything, whenever I notice in myself a pattern of behavior (good or bad) taking shape I stop abruptly and change course on the fly, not because I have a strong will but because I have a very short attention span.
I have always felt that having a particular fetish and being addicted to any one drug or thing or whatever, is for the masses, of course, things are not that black & white and people have justifications and reasons for everything but I believe an artist should not be bound by addiction, it's too restrictive and boring, ultimately it all depends on the individual mindset but personally, I'd rather be free to explore and express everything, my life and my behavior are not much different than my artwork, the only exception being the commitment I have for my kids.
I didn't say "have more sex with other people", you can always have sex with yourself, where's the harm in that? (besides hairy palms) I've been married to the same woman for 23 years and I have 2 kids, so I'm positive it will never happen, to have sex with strangers doesn't appeal to me in the least, I have to care for the person I'm with, otherwise it doesn't do anything for me, I tried going to a prostitute once when I was younger, that was a disaster.
Sexual frustration is a very important part of my life, it fuels my anger and drive, is the engine that makes everything artistic possible, all that truncated passion and energy gets put to a good use: ART.
Don't feel bad for me, I like it that way :)

Please don't make fun of my serious comments, Kristen. Of all people, I thought you cared. . . sad, very sad, I will become a sex machine, I will show the world!! they might have to amputate both my hands but I will triumph!. . . You'll see, -or maybe you won't- LOL!!.
Happy New Year to you, Kristen!!
- January 02, 2006 10:11 PM
I don't know about New Year resolutions, but I do know that a new year gives a new containment field. Past failings are relegated to 'last year', while 'this year' offers promise and hope. (Well, until we bugger everything up again!!)
Inspired by your monigotes, this year I hope to sketch something every day. (The 3 Jan piece, with the additional scribblings, is very cool!)
And since this is my first entry, can I tell you how much I dig your style. When I first saw it in Draw! magazine (the Illustrator tutorial issue) I freaked: it's bawdy, but so beautiful and measured. Muy bonita!
Do you still have sketchbooks for sale? And do you ship Internationally? (I live in Australia.) I'd be interested in purchasing one. (Not an Australia, a sketchbook!)
Well, all the best for '06!
Oh, and you're right about the sex and marriage business...
But there's always the flip side. At least we get some. *And* it comes without regrets, or the need for paper bags! :)

Defense Attorneys Challenge McQueary Testimony in Penn State Case
The success of Pennsylvania's cases against two former Penn State administrators who are accused or turning a blind eye to Jerry Sandusky's alleged sex abuse of boys turns on the credibility of the commonwealth's witnesses — none so important as Penn State assistant coach Mike McQueary.
According to a grand jury presentment released by the state attorney general's office, McQueary testified that he witnessed Sandusky sexually assault a boy in the shower of a Penn State locker room in 2002; that he reported it to Joe Paterno; and that he later described the incident in conversations with the administrators, Tim Curley and Gary Schultz.
Curley, the university's former athletic director, and Schultz, a former vice president, have each been charged with one count of perjury in connection with their grand jury testimony and one count of failure to report sexual abuse. Both men have denied the charges through their attorneys and haven't commented on the case or the charges.
At issue is what, exactly, McQueary told then Penn State coach Joe Paterno, Schultz and Curley about the locker room incident. . .

Maria Alvarado-Gomez charged for feeding daughters rat-poison smoothies
Maria Alvarado-Gomez. More images and a video below.
Maria Alvarado-Gomez, 32, was arrested after allegedly putting rat poison in smoothies she then gave to her young daughters; she also ingested some of the substance in an attempt to end her life.
A resident of Carbondale, Alvarado-Gomez is said to suffer from mental-health issues, calling into question what charges might be pressed against her. Now, we have the answer: She's been formally accused of attempted first-degree murder and child abuse. Details, photos and a video below.

According to an arrest affidavit obtained by the Aspen Times, Alvarado-Gomez had been under a doctor's care for depression and was supposed to be taking medication; whether she'd actually done so is unknown.
Alvarado-Gomez is currently being held in the Garfield County Jail.

Meanwhile, she apparently began to fear that her husband, 46-year-old Martin Luciano-Gonzalez, wanted to move to Mexico and take their daughters, ages eight and eleven, with him. This thought distressed Alvarado-Gomez, who subsequently told investigators that "she would rather the children be dead than alive in Mexico" -- and she appears to have felt the same way about herself.
The morning of June 30, the Times reports, Alvarado-Gomez took shocking and disturbing action. Inspired by an unnamed TV show, she's said to have purchased a box of rat poison from a local hardware store and blended it into smoothies made with milk, strawberries, sugar and ice cream. Then she fed it to the girls, apparently not realizing that the kind she purchased -- featuring the active ingredient brodifacoum, which effects blood clotting -- can take a couple of days to become lethal.
Her daughters blanched at the taste, which she blamed on vitamins she'd added to the beverages, and one of them vomited. But both girls survived even though their mom allegedly made no effort to get medical treatment for them.

The next day, the girls were transported by ambulance to Valley View Hospital in Glenwood Springs, where they responded to treatment; they were put into their father's custody upon their release. But Alvarado-Gomez, who also required medical care, was booked into Garfield County Jail on a $300,000 bond despite her explanation for what she'd done. A translator quoted her as saying "she did not want to suffer anymore and she did not want her children to suffer anymore."
More than two weeks later, prosecutors have decided on their course of action. The Grand Junction Daily Sentinel reveals that during a brief court appearance yesterday, Alvarado-Gomez was charged with two counts apiece of attempted first-degree murder and child abuse causing serious bodily harm. Each of the first two counts carry a jail sentence of up to 24 years behind bars, while the latter's punishment range is four-to-sixteen years.
Meanwhile, Luciano-Gonzalez offers the following comment about his wife's actions: "I want people to understand that she is sick."
Look below to see a larger version of Alvarado-Gomez's full-face booking photo, followed by a 9News report shortly after news about the incident broke earlier this month.

Dravid said talks of pressure on either India or Pakistan was purely media hype and that a strong challenge from the visitors cannot be ruled out only because they put up a lacklustre performance against Australia.
"Bad performance in one series does not mean much and I believe these pressure talks are more of media hype," the vice-captain said.
Dravid, accompanied by his wife Vijeta, is in city as a brand ambassador of Hutch, sponsors of a polo event here.
"If Pakistan have played one bad series it does not mean it is the end of road for them. It is the performance in particular series which decides the result at the end of the day. So do not reach much out of that one bad performance. They are good and can bounce back. It will be a hard fought series," he said.

For ages, yoga has been practiced to help soothe the mind and body. Yoga, when practiced religiously, helps you stay calm and maintains your overall well-being. Here are 10 yoga poses that are sure to help you relax.
Poses In Yoga For Relaxation
1. Tadasana – Mountain Pose:
This helps in keeping you relaxed by improving your focus and concentration levels.
- Stand on your yoga mat
- Place feet flat on the mat.
- Heels should be kept slightly apart from each other
- The big toes should be touching.
- Your spine and head should be erect
- Hands should rest on either side of your body
- Palms should rest on the thighs.
- Stretch out your hands and join your palms in a Namaskar mudra.
- Taking deep breath, stretch your spine and bring your hands above the head.
- Lift your heels, allowing yourself to balance on your toes.
- Look towards the ceiling while keeping the spine straight.
- Hold the position for 15 to 30 seconds, breathing normally.
- Exhale deeply
- Allow your body to relax in the initial position.
Repeat this thrice, while relaxing for 10 seconds between repetitions. This is one of the best poses in yoga for relaxation.
1. Beginners can stand straight while looking up and stretching as much as possible.
2. You can sit in Padmasana or Sukhasana and repeat the same.
People suffering from chronic and acute back and spinal issues should not balance themselves on their toes. Please consult a doctor before practicing this pose.
2. Balasana – Child Pose:

- Exhaling, lift your forehead and allow your body to come back to initial position.
Repeat 3 to 5 times, resting for 10 seconds between repetitions.
Please refrain from practicing this pose if you have any knee injuries.
1. If you find it difficult to sit on your knees, place a soft towel beneath the knees for additional cushioning.
2. You can place an exercise ball in front of you and allow your hands to rest on it. This will give you better support and help hold the pose for a longer period.

The correlation name would be "C" ( no associated schema ).

Calder STABLE IMPROVEMENTS UNDERWAY
MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (Feb. 09, 2009) – Calder Race Course announced today the application of a new elastomeric coating to sixty (60) barn roofs in the track's stable area, a project that will help reduce stable temperatures normally hiked by the South Florida sun.
Calder Vice President & General Manager of Racing John Marshall commented, "This is a very important project towards improving the quality of work life in our barn area. We anticipate the treated stables to be up to 10 degrees cooler in comparison to similar conditions of past summer months."

I've tasted tea in China since then, but it wasn't half so good as the herb tea she used to make for me o' Sunday nights.
And to work she went, at once; made me a nice bed on the floor, and fixed me a dose of herb tea in a very short time.
The herb tea did not cure him, nor did the stuff the doctor gave him.
The girl's sick and in bed; I am making her some herb tea, because that breaks up a fever.
Maybe he wants a dose—or a cup of herb tea does good, they say.
The herb tea Josefina had made for him had "touched the spot" and he felt quite like himself again.
Daisy tea was employed in gout and rheumatism—as herb tea of various sorts still is by the poor of our provinces.
She needed no snakeroot and saffron, nor indeed any other form of herb tea.
I'd hev made myself some herb tea, but I wuz beginnin' to git tre-men-jeous-ly hungry.
I spent my days with him, and the little maid would come in incessantly, bringing either my dinner or some herb tea.

For half a century now, the "rules versus discretion" debate in monetary economics has focused on the so-called "time inconsistency" problem. The problem is that, although a discretionary central bank might promise not to allow the inflation rate to rise above zero (or some other ideal value), the fact that an inflation "surprise" can boost employment and output in the short run will tempt it to break its promise. Realizing this, market participants will anticipate higher inflation. The long-run result is a higher inflation rate with no improvement in either employment or output. By limiting the central bankers' options, a monetary rule solves the time inconsistency problem.
An earlier rules-versus-discretion debate had taken place in the 1920s and 1930s.1 The later one, which was inspired by the stagflation of the 1970s, differed in that it was influenced by the New Classical revolution that was taking place around the same time. Consequently, the later critics of monetary discretion, including Finn Kydland and Edward Prescott, Guillermo Calvo, Benn McCallum, Robert Barro and David Gordon, and John Taylor,2 differed from their predecessors by building their arguments on the premise that central bankers were both well (if not quite perfectly) informed and well intentioned. Discretion, according to them, leads to less than ideal outcomes not because central bankers are ignorant or misguided, but because of misaligned incentives.

By Roger Yu, USA TODAY
Denise Hill checked in at Clarendon Hotel in Phoenix with her 18-month-old grandson on a recent evening and asked for a bellhop to carry her luggage to her room.
Hill, who lives in Tucson and Mexico, says she was denied help because only one clerk was working in the lobby. Upset, she hit the keyboard and wrote a lengthy critique of the hotel on review site TripAdvisor.
"After stacking luggage and grandson on a luggage cart," she wrote, "(I) was helped into the front door and elevator by other guests." Rating the hotel at one out of a possible five, she also complained about the lack of pool towels and housekeeping service.
Ben Bethel, who owns the hotel that has an average rating of four from more than 240 reviews, wrote a lengthy response two days later. He promised changes would be made. He added a person to the front desk, and reassigned his assistant general manager to the evening and weekend shift. Employees were instructed to tell guests to leave their luggage in the lobby if no bellhops were available, and bags would be taken up later. "We just didn't have enough people," Bethel says.
Add managing your business' online reputation to the long list of to-do items for hotel managers.
Armed with a log-in account and numerous travel websites willing to give them a forum, customers are increasingly vocalizing their experiences online for other travelers to read. That's prompting more managers such as Bethel to respond quickly or fear losing business. Less than 4% of negative reviews on TripAdvisor get a response, according to TripAdvisor, which has more than 30 million reviews. But the review site says it saw a 203% explosion in responses from hotels last year.
Hotel managers may ignore customers' reviews at their peril, some analysts say. Others say they're just another way for hotels to find ways of improving operations. And those who are paying attention and responding to customers can earn some goodwill points at a time every room night counts.
"It's an opportunity to stand apart from your competition," says Dean Schmit of Standing Dog, which developed software ReviewAnalyst.
Large hotel companies have always solicited customer surveys from guests. But they've relied mostly on numerical rankings and have rarely contained descriptive explanations.
Managers still regularly receive customer survey scores tabulated by the headquarters, but online reviews are being used to improve training, adjust restaurant and staffing hours and add or remove amenities, says Bjorn Hanson, a hospitality professor at New York University.
"The (hotel) brands didn't pay attention to online reviews until recently," Hanson says. Now, many are responding in big ways:
•In September, Hilton began testing a software tool at "hundreds of hotels" that will aggregate reviews and comments on websites, blogs and other social-media sites, including Twitter, says Chuck Sullivan of Hilton.
•Starwood Hotels and nearly 300 full-service Marriott and Marriott-brand hotels also use ReviewAnalyst to manage online content, Schmit says. It monitors more than a dozen websites, including TripAdvisor, Priceline, Flickr and YouTube. Hotel managers can also set certain phrases — bedbugs, discrimination, eviction, police, security — that require immediate attention.
•Joie de Vivre Hotels, Rosewood Hotels, InterContinental Hotels and Kimpton Hotels also use a similar product, developed by San Francisco-based Revinate.
Clarendon Hotels' Bethel isn't using any outside help but has set his Google Reader to receive automatic alerts from popular travel websites.
'A tidal wave of whispers'
A big majority of customer feedback, 70%, is "positive," says Maureen Dime of Avalon Report, another firm that compiles online reviews for hotels. "But," she says, "if 30% is unhappy with you, that's still a large percentage. We call it a tidal wave of whispers."
Hotels have adopted different ways of responding to the tidal wave.
John Spomer, managing director of the Driskill Hotel in Austin, says negative reviews are compiled daily and forwarded to appropriate departmental leaders who are "required to respond within 24 hours."
The hotel hired a communications director this month, whose duties will include handling reviews. "We're not doing the best job talking to the masses," he says. "It really takes commitment."
Marriott has a set of "best practices" that it provides to general managers, and has been sending trainers to hotels to help employees understand social media, spokesman John Wolf says.
This is a tricky issue for review sites. To prevent hotel owners from being overly aggressive in soliciting positive reviews, TripAdvisor has a policy prohibiting hotels from offering incentives or discounts in exchange for reviews. TripAdvisor also says it has other ways to ensure reviews are legitimate, and not written by employees or competitors.
Some websites, such as Expedia and Hotels.com, allow managers to respond publicly but won't provide guests' direct contact information, Schmit says.
Others, such as VRBO.com (Vacation Rentals by Owner), let vacation rental home owners remove customer reviews they don't like. But VRBO says it's changing its customer review policy starting today, letting guests leave reviews on the site without having them first read by owners. VRBO says it will remove only reviews found to be fraudulent, libelous and containing profanity.
Reviews with specific data should spur hotels into action, managers say. Paul Frentsos, manager of Galleria Park Hotel in San Francisco, collected online reviews that criticized the hotel's slow Wi-Fi Internet connection and presented it to owners.
After reading the reviews, the owners approved funding for a new Wi-Fi system two months ago. "Sometimes, people are dramatic," Frentsos says, "but there's truth in what they're saying."

Serenity can be described as the state of calmness and the sensation of peacefulness.
Day to day life experience brings disruptions to peace of mind, taking many forms that can sometimes pile up, turning composure into overwhelm.
There are ways of coping with these moments in time.
The one that always comes to my mind is the catchphrase "Take Me Away" generated by a marketing campaign for Calgon bath and beauty products. One of their famous commercials, as described by Wikipedia . . .
"A woman wearing a fluffy pink robe is seen in a chaotic home scenario. As tension rises, she utters the slogan "Calgon, take me away!" The next scene shows her relaxing in a bath in a quiet room."
Take a moment to see if you can relate to this commercial from the 80's . . .
For those who have never taken the advise of the commercial . . . try it sometime, it actually works. There was a time in my life when a hectic day at work would lead me straight to the bathroom to prepare a bubble bath, light up the incense and many candles to set an aromatic, calm mood in the dark bathroom to soothe my stressed out soul the minute I got home. It was a nice transition from the irritations of life to the serenity of a hot bubble bath.
Lunch break diversions from a hectic day you know is going to run into overtime . . . a quick trip to a park to enjoy nature and quiet time can work wonders, making the rest of the day much more tolerable.
Then there is my favorite prayer . . . The Serenity Prayer
"God, grant me the serenity to accept
the things I cannot change,
The courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference."
Know when you need to give yourself the gift of serenity . . .
even if just closing your eyes and momentarily
taking yourself away.

This guy went to the doctor and said to him "Doctor....I don't know what's wrong with me, but every time I fart, it sounds like the word HONDA".
"That's interesting, never heard of anything like that before. Do you think you could fart for me?" says the doctor.
The guy says "Sure." And sure enough, the doctor hears "HONDA".
After several attempts to figure out what's wrong with this guy, the doctor runs out of ideas. He sends him to all sorts of stomach specialists and none of them can figure out why this guys farts say "HONDA." It is a completely out of this world medical condition.
Finally, as a last resort, the doctors think they should send the man to a dentist. After explaining the problem to the dentist, the dentist opened up the guys mouth and examining it.
The dentist says "A-haa!!!!....I have solved the problem."
The patient says "What is it? What is it. Please tell me doc".....
The dentist replies "Well, sir, you have an abscess tooth."
The guy says "Yeah....so....What has that got to do with my farts?"
The dentist replies, "Cant you see??..... Abscess Makes The Fart Go HONDA"

"As she passed the doors she turned and looked back. Grave and thoughtful was her glance, as she looked on the king with cool pity in her eyes. Very fair was her face, and her long hair was like a river of gold. Slender and tall she was in her white robe girt with silver; but strong she seemed and stern as steel, a daughter of kings"

she looks here like she's about 40 here, but why can't she be 40? wonderful art))
oops, it's not the intended effect I guess that's because I rarely paint portraits and find it hard to keep the features sort of "fresh". And it becomes even more difficult when I have no reference
Thanks for your comment

Unlike the bigger cities like Chicago, New York or Hollywood where hiring a personal trainer can cost a pile, Lakeview personal trainer cost is relatively cheaper. But then again, the cost of hiring a personal trainer in Lakeview will depend on his education, location, experience, the contract terms for personal training and the package he offers.
Lakeview personal trainer cost is likely to be higher if the trainer has a gold certification from the National association of Sports Medicine (NASM), the most widely recognized institute and which imparts specialized training to those who qualify. Similarly, a trainer's experience will also push his charges up and he will usually come recommended by people whom he has been serving for a long time. Undoubtedly, he is in demand and that automatically calls for higher rates. However, do remember that being expensive does not always necessarily mean that the person is absolutely the tops and is ideally suited for you.
Proximity to the client and the personal trainer's location is also another factor that decides on variations in Lakeview personal trainer cost. If your trainer is living miles way from your house, then he has to drive down and in order to cover his conveyance costs, he will charge you more. Moreover, if you are a resident of a posh locality in Lakeview, it is most likely that he will ask for more knowing that you in all probability can afford it. The training session's length is also another major factor for settling the cost terms. The contract that you make with your personal trainer will clearly spell that out right from the beginning and the charges for a one-hour session will obviously be more than a half-hour session. Alternately, rates per session dip if you take six or twelve month contracts as against ninety day or six-week packages.
The type or kind of training package that you choose will also be responsible for what you pay in terms of Lakeview personal trainer cost. Shared sessions are comparatively cheaper than individual sessions. For instance, a trainer charging $55 per hour for one client will automatically reduce rates to $80 per hour for training two people simultaneously. This would reduce individual costs to $40 per hour instead of $55. Payment terms are also flexible with some trainers wanting full payment up front before the training commences. Others, especially newcomers may even offer you the option of bi-weekly or monthly payments. Paying up front also has certain discounts going with it and this could help you cut costs also. Even late cancellations or missed sessions could leave you the poorer. In case of a dire emergency which leads to last minute cancellation, most trainers will let go once or even twice, provided you don't make a regular habit of it.
Lakeview personal trainer cost usually varies between $25 for an hour to $50-$70 per session. This again is dependant on the trainer's track record, certification, education, references and results they show to those who work out with them regularly.

Indicative of the cognitive deficiency of the Baby Boomers and subsequent generations, is the proliferation of "How To" books, under the appellation, "`X' for Dummies."
Such tomes originated, as did many of the more destructive trends in the late 20th Century, in the computer-based information/entertainment business. Desiring ever-increasing values in stock prices, the high priests of information ensnared a growing number of lost souls, by explaining the purported intricate workings of computer programs, using baby talk and pictures, so that "Dummies" could understand them. This appeal to ignorance spread like fungus in August, as growing numbers of willing fools, eagerly identified themselves as "Dummies." A recent survey of Amazon.com turned up 714 such books, ranging from computer subjects such as "Windows '98 for Dummies" and "Internet for Dummies," to "Investing for Dummies", "Buying a Car for Dummies," "Classical Music for Dummies," "Parenting for Dummies," "Gourmet Cooking for Dummies," "Dating for Dummies," "Sex for Dummies," "Fundraising for Dummies," and "Leadership for Dummies, abridged version." (No joke. Check it out for yourself!) Soon, under pressure from HMOs, medical schools will soon adopt this training method. Instead of educating highly skilled physicians, "health care providers" will be tutored in such subjects as "Brain Surgery Made Simple" and, "Cardiology in Three Easy Steps."
Of course, there is nothing new here. 500 years ago Paolo Sarpi and his protege Galileo, pushed a similar scam, against the Renaissance, with a, "Science for Dummies" series, which taught that the universe could be made simple, if the human mind were removed. Since then, Sarpi's minions, from Newton, to Euler, to Kronecker, to von Neumann, have induced countless numbers of otherwise intelligent individuals, to turn from the truthful, but challenging, science of Plato, Cusa, Kepler, Fermat, Leibniz, Kaestenr, Gauss, and Riemann, to a simplified world without Mind "The Universe for Dummies."
Now, given that the future of civilization depends on diminishing the attractiveness of being a dummy, we will introduce, from time to time over the coming period, a series of pedagogical discussions, on the above-titled subject, "Riemann for Anti-Dummies." This investigation will take us through the development of what has been generally called Gauss' and Riemann's theory of functions. While formal mathematical presentations of this subject abound, both in a form suited for high priests of mathematical and computer sciences, and also in a form more suited "for dummies," virtually all these surveys lack any real understanding of the thinking underlying Gauss' and Riemann's discoveries. From our standpoint it were more appropriate to characterize the Gauss/Riemann theory of functions, as a metaphorical science, rather than a formal mathematical one. That being the case, we will avoid beginning with a formal definition of a function, preferring to leave such matters unstated, so that the reader can construct a concept, rather than learn a definition.
While it may occasionally be tacitly acknowledged, it has become obscured to the point of being unrecognizable, that the Gauss/Riemann theory of functions is rooted in the revolutionary science of Kepler. For that reason, it is necessary to restate, albeit in an abbreviated form, certain aspects of Kepler's discoveries, that have been dealt with at more length in previous pedagogical discussions.
For Kepler, like all humans before and since, the motions of the planets of our solar system, and the stars beyond, are observed, only indirectly and measured as positions on the inside of a celestial sphere. These observations, when mapped simultaneously, onto one sphere, produce a tangled network of circular arcs. From this jumble, it becomes known upon reflection, that the motions so represented, appear to be irregular. How then, can the human mind, untangle these curves, and construct a function, of which this jumble is a projection?
Contained in these projections, are a set of unique positions (singularities), such as the points representing the place where the motion of the planets change direction; or the points representing the positions in which the planet's motion changes from becoming increasingly fast, to increasingly slow; or the points representing where the planet's reach a maximum or minimum deviation from the ecliptic; or the points where the projected orbits of different planets appear to intersect. Working backwards, the relationship among these singularities, affords an investigator the ability to construct a function, that would produce the observed result.
As Kepler puts it in the "New Astronomy":
"The testimony of the ages confirms that the motions of the planets are orbicular. It is an immediate presumption of reason, reflected in experience, that their gyrations are perfect circles. For among figures it is circles, and among bodies the heavens, that are considered the most perfect. However, when experience is seen to teach something different to those who pay careful attention, namely, that the planets deviate from a simple circular path, it gives rise to a powerful sense of wonder, which at length drives men to look into causes.
"It is just this from which astronomy arose among men. Astronomy's aim is considered to be to show why the stars' motions appear to be irregular on earth, despite their being exceedingly well ordered in heaven, and to investigate the circles wherein the stars may be moved, that their positions and appearances at any given time may thereby be predicted."
Ptolemy, [Tycho] Brahe, and Copernicus all sought to construct a function, that when projected onto a sphere, produced a tangle of curves, approximate to the observed motions of the planets. Each produced one, and each was radically different than the others. All three approximations, were equal, "to within a hair's breadth" of each other, yet deviated from the historical observations, and in their ability to predict future observations, by a small, but measurable amount. Yet, there was no way to distinguish which one was true, or for that matter, why it were not possible to construct an infinite number of other functions, that provided an equally good approximation of the observations.
In seeking to construct the desired function, Kepler rejected the mathematical methods of his predecessors. "But where Copernicus did so through mathematical arguments, mine were physical, or rather metaphysical."
The required function, therefore, must not simply account for the appearances, but it must account for the physical motion of the planet, which required an inquiry into the reason for the planet's motion:
"Now the planet must execute a perfectly circular path in the pure aether by its inherent force, epicyclic in the first model and eccentric in the second. It is therefore clear that the mover is going to have two jobs: it must have a faculty strong enough to move its body about, and second, it must have sufficient knowledge to find a circular boundary in the pure aether, which is itself not divided into such regions. This is the function of Mind."
What is the nature of this Mind, and how can it be discovered? "God, like one of our own architects, approached the task of constructing the universe with order and pattern, and laid out the individual parts accordingly, as if it were not art which imitated Nature, but God himself had looked to the mode of building of Man who was to be."
The function Kepler constructed, was not a formal logical construction, but a metaphor, using geometry, words and number, to reflect the characteristics of Mind, to the Mind. The sought after function cannot be stated in simple formal mathematical terms, but only through its elaboration, which is contained in the entire corpus of Kepler's work. Some of the principles that characterize the function can be stated summarily as: the motive force of the solar system is located in the Sun, which is at rest; the effect of the Sun's motive force diminishes with distance; the orbits of the planets are ordered according to the five Platonic solids; the planet's distance from the Sun varied during its orbit, thus producing a regular but non-constant motion, reflected in the constant ratio between the area swept out by the planet, to the time elapsed during that interval; the shape of these orbits so produced are ellipses which all intersect at the Sun; all planetary orbits are further constrained such that the square of the total time for one orbit is equal to the cube of planet's mean distance to the Sun; and the ratio of the angular velocities, between the planets, correspond to unique musical intervals.
The above conditions, are only some of the characteristics, determined by the sought after function that characterizes the motions of the solar system. It is the overall nature of the function, that determines each characteristic. Ironically, we know the nature of the function, from the characteristics, yet we cannot discover the characteristics, without a concept of the function.
Next week we will review their development more closely, but to complete this week's polemic, here's the version the oligarchy created for dummies. First, get rid of the Platonic solids and the harmonic intervals. Reduce the rest to three simple mathematical expressions, and call them, "Kepler's laws." Then further reduce these three expressions, to one simple mathematical expression, called the "inverse square law." Then hire a psycho-pathological occultist named Isaac Newton, to write a "Universe for Dummies." Then hire a new generation of even more degraded academics, (preferably from the Island of Laputa) who produce, another version — "Universe for real Dummies," and sell it as textbooks for secondary schools and universities, and put it on the Internet.
A healthy commentary on such scientific methods was recounted by Rabelais.
"Why is it," asked Gargantua, "that Friar John has such a handsome nose?"
"Because," replied Grandgousier, "God wished it so, and he makes us in such shape and to such end as pleases his divine will, even as a potter fashions his pots."
"Because," said Ponocrates, "he was one of the first at Nose-fair. He chose one of the finest and biggest."
"Stuff and nonesense," said the monk. "According to true monastic reasoning, it was because my nurse had soft breasts: when she suckled me, my nose sank in, as if into butter, and there it swelled and grew like dough in the kneading-trough. Hard breasts in nurses make children snub-nosed. But come, come! Ad formam nasi cognoscitur, ad te levavi. (By the shape of his nose he is known, I have lifted up mine eyes to thee.)

@Happy_Mask Yeah I feel similarly at times. For Spooky all I did was place a flag and just haphazardly move blocks around to get to it; that was it.
The big Crashmo in particular seem especially intimidating to make. I enjoy, rather, working with small 16x16 sprites from say, SMB3.
I would have never guessed Weezing was so useful until I played a HeartGold Nuzlocke!

[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3347?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ] Mike Matrigali updated DERBY-3347: ---------------------------------- Trying to figure out what to tell 10.3 users that may have hit this. Does anyone have a db that they can boot that has a table that gets this error on access. Can you drop the index or table if it gets this error? If you get this error during recovery you are going to have to go to backup, but i am hoping that if the error is on an index we can figure out some way to just be able to drop and recreate the index. How likely is this error to have caused more than page 0 to be corrupted? Does the unintended i/o interaction have a chance to push a write that was supposed to start at offset 0 to somewhere later thus causing it to overwrite page 1? > ERROR XSDB3: Container information cannot change once written > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-3347 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3347 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Store > Affects Versions: 10.3.1.4, 10.3.2.1 > Environment: Windows 2003 Server > Sun Java 1.6.0_03 > Reporter: Bogdan Calmac > Assignee: Knut Anders Hatlen > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 10.3.2.2, 10.4.1.2, 10.5.0.0 > > Attachments: d3347-1a.diff, d3347-1a.stat, d3347-1b.diff, d3347-2a.diff, d3347-preview.diff, d3347-preview.diff, MiniStress.zip > > > We are using derby as an embedded DB for our data collection server.

I can confirm that there is no memory problem, the heap usage seems constant over time. > Can somebody provide some more information regarding the effects of this error? By looking at the stacktrace, it looks like a checkpoint operation is aborted due to some inconsistency in the internal data structure.

Trumping the international monetary system
by Andrew Sheng and Xiao Geng
Market optimism about U.S. growth could lead to ever-larger imbalances and possibly disrupt the international monetary system.
Market optimism about U.S. growth could lead to ever-larger imbalances and possibly disrupt the international monetary system.
To end regional turmoil, the Arab world must embrace an inclusive merit-based economic system.
Developments in the world economy threaten to create problems for the next U.S. president and, possibly, trigger a major financial crisis.
Information technology has democratized so many elements of our lives. By democratizing the law, perhaps it can save globalization — and the international order.
Food and fuel prices in North Korea have remained largely stable under leader Kim Jong Un, despite tightening international sanctions to punish the North for its nuclear and ballistic missile tests, rare data from inside the isolated country shows. The relative stability of both prices ...
India may come to miss Raghuram Rajan's commitment to deregulation after he steps down as governor of the nation's central bank.
In most walks of life, if what you're doing isn't working, you should try something else. In central banking, however, the strategy has been to do more of what isn't working.
Optimizing its resource allocation is far from all that China must do to boost prosperity. It is time to focus on workers and elevating the experience of their labor.
Economists at the International Monetary Fund question are finding that neoliberalism isn't all it's cracked up to be.
China and Japan hold $2.4 trillion of Treasuries, a reminder the U.S. is financed by the kindness of strangers.
The U.S. Federal Reserve has all but explicitly recognized a new role: promoting global financial stability inches closer to achieving its targets for the domestic economy.
Since the 2008 global financial crisis, austerity and balance-sheet repair have been the watchwords of the global economy. And yet today, more than ever, debt is fueling concern about growth.

HB294, HB297 • The House passed two bills Friday that may soon allow cars to pass bicycles and mopeds by crossing yellow lines in the center of roads.
"The comment I usually get is, 'Isn't that already legal?' No, it's not," said Rep. Johnny Anderson, R-Taylorsville, who sponsored both HB294 and HB297. They both passed 69-0 and now go to the Senate.
HB294 allows crossing a double yellow line for such passing on two-lane roads. HB297 allows crossing yellow lines on multilane highways. Both bills allow such passing only when it is safe.

Next Door Studios will allow you to transcend into another world - or maybe just onto the cock of the guy from next door. This site is all about the hottest guys, with the biggest dicks and sexiest bodies. The ones that get you hard with a mysterious glance, and have perfect faces and asses to match. We have big dicks, waxed backs, plenty of muscles, and all the gay anal sex that you can stand. Get ready to experience role-playing, first-time anal thrusting, and plenty of gay anal.
When Draven Torres, a broke college student, moves into a new apartment closer to campus, he hires a couple movers from an ad in the university newspaper. Ace Rockwood and Deryk Reynolds do the work Draven requests promptly and efficiently. They work hard in order to build up a good word-of-mouth for their brand new moving business. After the last item is moved, the guys tell Draven he owes them $150. Draven reluctantly breaks the news to them that he doesn't have the money to pay. But he was hoping they would accept a decent trade. One look from Ace and Deryk knows exactly the only kind of 'trade' they'd take. Ace pulls out his cock and pushes Draven's head down so he can get to work! Deryk is getting some nice sucking from Draven also. Ace and Deryk work as a team both when they're moving furniture AND when they're sharing a nice, warm mouth. Then it's time for the bulk of the payment to be made. Ace is bending Draven over give him a hot and hard pounding he'll enjoy, while Draven slurps down Deryk's fat dong all the while. I hope Draven gets his cash flow situation figured out by the time rent's due. But hey, there's always something to trade! Enjoy!

Tardiness affects more than just an employee's paycheck. Late employees, especially those who come in late often, impact multiple areas of the business, including other employees and the company's bottom line. Employers must handle frequently late employees quickly and in accordance with a set lateness policy to prevent the situation from escalating. The use of a clear late policy in writing and available for all employees to view ensures everyone is treated the same.
Productivity Loss
An employee who isn't working when he's supposed to is an immediate loss of productivity. Routine interruption may throw other employees off, particularly those who rely on the late employee to do parts of their jobs. Frequently, late employees hinder productivity on a bigger level than an employer might initially realize. For example, an employee working on a project who is late 10 minutes each day for a week loses nearly an entire hour of work. If another employee needs the late person to do his project part, he may lose nearly as much work time despite being punctual.
Negative Morale
Frequently late employees may lower everyone's morale. The late person isn't following the rules and may lead other employees to feel angry about the unfairness of the situation. The morale of immediate co-workers may plummet because the employee's lateness puts stress on them, especially if they have to cover for the late employee or fall behind in their own jobs.
Customer Dissatisfaction
Late employee disruptions affect time-sensitive areas of the job, such as customer service. If an employee is late and doesn't make a delivery to a customer on time, for example, the customer may end the relationship with the employer. A late employee who is supposed to open a location at a specific time may lose customers if she's not there when she's supposed to be. Multiple incidents of poor customer service will affect the employer's reputation and may discourage potential customers.
Management Problems
Allowing one or more employees to come in late frequently can undermine the employer's management team. Other employees may begin to feel as if the rules don't apply to the late employee and come in late themselves. When management consistently lets someone slide, other employees may lose respect for the people in charge.
Overcoming Lateness
Transforming yourself from chronically late to perfectly punctual is a big task. It is important to make deadlines non-negotiable, "like a promise to yourself." Start with something easily attainable, like vowing not to hit snooze tomorrow — not even once. If you can't commit to a small inconvenience like that,you are not ready to tackle your chronic lateness. Before jumping in, try an experiment: Get somewhere on time. Just once. Just to see how it feels. Note your reaction. Are you relieved or anxious? Proud or bored as hell? Then work your way up from there.
Step 1: Relearn to tell time.
Every day for two weeks, write down each task you have to do and how long you think it will take. Time yourself as you go through your list — showering and dressing, eating breakfast, driving to work, picking up the dry cleaning, doing the dishes — and write the actual time next to your estimate. Many people have certain time frames cemented in their brains that aren't realistic. Just because once, five years ago, you made it to work in 12 minutes flat doesn't mean it takes 12 minutes to get to work.
Step 2: Never plan to be on time.
Late people always aim to arrive to the minute, leaving no room for contingency. Say you need to get to work at 9 a.m. You assume it takes exactly 12 minutes to get to work, so you leave at 8:48. If you miss one traffic light or have to run back inside to grab an umbrella, it becomes impossible to make it in on time. Don't chance it. You should plan to be everywhere 15 minutes early.
Step 3: Welcome the wait.
If the thought of getting anywhere ahead of time freaks you out, plan an activity to do in the interim. Bring a magazine, call a friend you haven't spoken to in a while, or go over your schedule for the week. Make the activity specific and compelling, so you'll be motivated get there early and do it.
