About Ocean Harvest S.V.C.
These marine plants are the vegetal ancestors of all life forms on the planet today, dating back over 3.2 billion years. They have survived as a rich source of essential elements and trace minerals to be food for humans, the last species to develop; our interest in them is encoded in our cells. These essential elements and trace minerals nurture the hormone-producing endocrine system, which regulates metabolism: "all changes in energy and materials that build, repair and fuel the human body". Sea vegetables also provide a rare source of the element iodine, fundamental to brain function and stress reduction. The Kelp Family (including Laminaria, Kombu, Wakame and Sea Palm) regulates body weight and performs the miraculous act of isolating and leaching out lethal radioactive substances from our bodies for elimination. Sea vegetables are certainly appropriate food for us all! Many people prefer to eat native sea vegetables. We are happy to present the West coast varieties, which may well represent a cross between the heavier, more medicinal flavors of Japanese sea vegetables and the lighter, thinner varieties of those of the Eastern seaboard. One thing we'd like our customers to become aware of is just how nutrient-rich sea vegetables are-- a veritable medicine chest of proteins, complex carbohydrates and all forty four trace minerals and elements (which act as magnets in the blood to bind other nutrients), vitamins A, C, E, B1, B2, B6, and the most up to date research suggests, vitamin B12. Sea vegetables are especially high in iron, calcium and iodine, the only vegetal source of this brain food, and several varieties are remarkably rich sources of fluoride, surpassing the RDA. Many folks are beginning to realize the superior value of sea plants: a daily snack of roasted wild Nori and a bowl of miso soup with Wakame, for example, can go a long way towards fulfilling many nutrient requirements. Here in Northern California we harvest eight varieties of sea vegetables - Mendocino Coast Kombu, Sweet Kombu, Ocean Ribbons, Sea Palm, Silky Sea Palm, Mendocino Coast Wakame,
Mendocino Coast Wild Nori and Mendocino Coast Fucus or Bladderwrack. The cool pristine temperate waters and rich tidal upwelling of the Northwest coast support an abundant number of species and luxuriant growth. Our Pacific Ocean is a majestic "office" and we are honored to work there. On harvest days we rise before dawn, dress warmly and make our way down to the rocky outcroppings along the coast. There, the rhythm of the tides is our time clock; hours amongst the bejeweled tidal pools are carefully meted out by Neptune. We are careful in our harvest techniques lest we imbalance this precious environment and cut the algae so as to leave the reproductive function of the plants intact. Working on the ocean awakens an umbilical connection - sea lions bob up in the surf, while cormorants, gulls and pelicans fish the rough and crystal clear Pacific. It is always lovely when the sun rises, particularly when the full moon is setting as well; soon after we head inland to sun dry the algae. Everything but the Nori (too sandy) is left unrinsed to let the salt-water minerals act as a natural preservative. Each frond is laid out to be turned every hour until dry. This completed, we hurry home to sleep before the next day of harvest begins. We hope this story enriches your sense of the nature of these plants and our work with them. Food is that which nurtures us, body and soul; which makes us more alive. Ocean Harvest Sea Vegetables grow in a very special environment. The marine garden along the Pacific N.W. coast is a source of life for a myriad of sea creatures. Whales, sea otters, seals, pelicans, osprey and cormorants frolic about the pristine waters; fishermen and divers harvest albacore, salmon, sea urchin and abalone for local and world food supplies. Millions of tourists frequent the exquisite coast of Mendocino seeking the balance of nature that is so visibly harmonious here. Sea Vegetables are the first food of the plant kingdom and the foundation of our food chain. When the primal waters became saline, it was the ingestion of sea vegetables that led to the development of the first invertebrates. Today this same branch of the food kingdom lends calcium and iron and nutrient-binding trace minerals and elements to our bloodstream. They also perform other miraculous favors such as the removal of heavy metals from our bodies and the regulation of cholesterol. At Ocean Harvest our chief concern is getting these nutrient- rich plants to you along the shortest route with the fewest compromises. We routinely pack the prana of the sun into our products in a one day drying process. We don't rinse the trace elements off, and we box our product in air-tight bags away from light and moisture to prevent oxidation and nutrient loss. For the last 20 years we've been rising at 4:30 am. Before moonset on the new and full moon cycles of spring and summer to gather sea vegetables off the rockstacks in the wilds of the Pacific intertidal zone. Our harvest sites are among the cleanest anywhere; we are proud to select our sea vegetables from waters that rate in the top 5% of the world's richest and most pristine marine environments! The continental shelf drops off to a depth of several hundred feet just a mile or two offshore here, resulting in a tidal upwelling that carries rich marine detritus onshore. Compare that to the Atlantic coast where the shelf is 200 miles offshore! We at Ocean Harvest meet the inflexible hours of the sun, moon and tide schedules, often working sixteen hour days to bring this quality product to your table. We consider it an honor to serve you and to work in such a beautiful "office." OHSV Video CONTACT OHSV E-mail PHONE: 707-694-9496 PST |

I don't understand your problem, there are two alternate ways to sync to your Touch besides drag & drop. First, you can select a group of tracks or albums, right-click, choose "Send to..." and select your Touch. Or you can create a playlist, send the selected tracks/albums to that playlist and configure your Touch to sync with that playlist. I use the latter (one playlist per DAP) and think it's a most elegant and versatile way to sync my DAPs.

Before, the basic money related diagram was to locate a "great job" with advantages and stay there for 30-40 years. At that point, one could resign with a benefits and get Social Security. Indeed, even my dad was attempting to push me into the military and stay for a long time so I can get a benefits. The decision outlook of the Industrial Era was "security". Since 1971, the "new" attitude has ended up "opportunity", "freedom" and self-rule.
In the course of recent years, the American open has seen globalization, scaling back, outsourcing and privatization of different commercial ventures. These activities have prompted the loss of various occupations. It has likewise prompted the end of the "40-40 Plan" (40 hrs for every week for a long time). This new economy requires an entrepreneurial outlook to construct individual riches for yourself and your family. The "new" arrangement for individuals to make and fabricate riches are in the accompanying strides:
1. Concentrate on RADICALLY expanding your salary: When expanding your wage, consider expanding it by 25-35%! The reason is on the grounds that your pay has two foes: swelling and expenses. By profoundly expanding your pay, you can start to guarantee that swelling and charges won't deny you of your riches.
2. Expert a salary creating aptitude: keeping in mind the end goal to drastically build your pay, you should learn, apply and ace a cash making expertise. The four fundamental cash making aptitudes are: 1) deals, 2) advertising, 3) item improvement and 4) cash administration and contributing. Pick one of these four to start your adventure to radical riches increment.
3. Pay Yourself FIRST (10% Solution): Every riches maker has aced this one propensity. W. Forebearing Stone expressed that the seeds of significance are not in you on the off chance that you can't ace this propensity. The monetary exemplary THE RICHEST MAN IN BABYLON instructs: A segment of all you win is all yours.
4. Minimize/Eliminate obligation: As you profoundly expand your pay, you ought to likewise look to minimize or kill however much obligation as could be expected. By making "new cash" you can address "old obligation". Obligation is servitude.
5. Make 4 surges of income: Bishop TD Jakes expressed in a sermon that "cash is not the mission. Cash subsidizes the mission." He expresses that when you make various floods of salary, it permits you the opportunity to satisfy your life's main goal. When you're diminished to one stream of wage, you risk "undermining yourself to the most elevated bidder". In this way, having various surges of pay is the new worldview.
In the Entrepreneurial Economy, there will be enormous chances to make riches not at all like whatever other time. In any case, it will require an outlook change to address the issues of this new time. The individuals who adjust themselves to this new economy will have monetary opportunity and security. The individuals who oppose the progressions will get to be casualties of the new worldview.

St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, A1C, Canada
205 Water Street is a Classical Revival style building located at 205 Water Street, downtown St. John's, NL. It is a striking gray, concrete parged building with immense proportions that stands out from neighboring buildings. The designation is confined to the footprint of the building.
205 Water Street has been designated a Municipal Heritage Building for its aesthetic and historic values.205 Water Street is a very fine example of the Classical Revival style. Faced in concrete this building utilizes symmetry through the use of three storey fluted, monumental pilasters. A large pediment graces the front of the building and large dentils can be found at the eaves. Arched windows with keystone decorations grace the second storey windows. A decorative wreath can be seen in the pediment high on the top floor. The main floor arched windows have heavy concrete mullions separating each window pane and the overall impression of this building is of monumentality, strength and stability. The main entrance further expresses this through its heavy entablature with dentils and pilasters and the deeply recessed door. A second entrance located at the front façade gives access to the second floor offices.205 Water Street is historically valuable due to its age, variety of uses and rarity in design. Earliest records in the City of St. John's Directory show the building as a concrete warehouse owned by the Baine Johnston Company General Merchandise. Between this time and 1925 the building was converted as a bank by the Canadian Bank of Commerce. The city tax atlas description of the bank in 1946 shows brick terra cotta and concrete construction, giving it its present appearance. It has remained a bank since that time, but has changed ownership and entities.205 Water Street is also historically valuable for its rarity in design. This building was constructed after the 1892 Great Fire of St. John's destroyed much of the city, including this street and all buildings on it. As the city rebuilt strict rules were enforced that made buildings "fireproof" by making them from inflammable materials such as stone and concrete. 205 Water Street began as a concrete warehouse, but as its use increased in importance as a bank, its appearance changed to include the monumental features visible today. The building stands out amongst its neighbors as unique and one of a kind.Source: City of St. John's Archives, unnumbered property file, St. John's - HSBC Building
All those elements that define the building's Classical Revivial design, including:-symmetrical façade;-use of pilasters, arches, pediments and dentils; -concrete and stone sheathing;-fenestration of windows;-recessed main entrance;-heavy entablature;-second entrance to the offices on the second floor;-wreath motif decoration;-size, dimensions and location of building; and-general massing and number of stories.

Just curious if anyone's children have predicted the gender of baby. I've heard woman say, "my dd would call the baby, 'baby brother' and we then found out she was right". Just for fun :)
Lol my kids always just say what they want...my daughter said girl when I was pregnant with both my boys because she wanted a sister so bad...and my son said boy when I was pregnant with his brother, but he wanted a brother, and this time he said boy again cuz he wanted another brother and we are having a girl lol
My little guy isn't even 2 yet so he never guessed or anything but now that we know its a boy and i tell him his baby brother or his little tiny brother is in my stomach he points to my belly and says "brother" or "baby" and sometimes taps on my stomach too! My mom's neighbors just had their 2nd girl and the 3 year old girl kept saying it was a boy though! now she is like her sister's little mommy #2!

I put the Ick in Dick.
Monroe Load-leveler shocks
So I blew out my shocks on the back of the XJ and I was tired of the sagging rear end when I loaded a trailer on the back so I did some searching.
I was going to buy a set of air shocks but I didn't like the idea of air lines hanging out under my Jeep. I found these shocks and they made them for my XJ so I ordered a set. Installation was easy as I only broke one mounting bolt and I knew how to fix it so that was a breeze. Now just to mention this ahead of time I have a set of 3.5" Rusty's leaves in the back but I relocated my shock mounts further up on the axle for clearance so a set of stock height shocks were used. The shocks are definitely stiffer than my old ones but they have been blown out for quite some time so I'm not sure that even matters. What I noticed... They are not the same as a stock shock, the travel is setup completely different. They actually lifted the back about 1/2". They are much firmer. Even with a few hundred pounds in the back I didn't notice the sag like I used to. The real test will come when I load up a car hauler this summer. Last year it was nearly riding on the bumpstops. I expect that my flex in the rear will be slightly diminished. |

just wondering if there is any ideas on how to break a gunshy dog? this is NOT a lab it is feist
may the Lord bless
dogs are only as good as thier trainers,and trainers are only as good thier dogs
Romans 14:11
i trained one for a client once that loved live birds, but was gunshy. so it started with letting her be on lead while letting someone else handle a dog on a flyer. she just observed. then i would let her carry around the dead bird to let her start to make the connection.
then i started using a cap pistol everytime we did marks. nothing too loud. lots of praise. then we moved to her getting dead birds with the gunner shooting a .22 blank. then moved up to flyer shot with a 20 guage by the gunner. then moved onto me shooting by her. lots of praise and lots of reward.
the first time i shot by her, she ran and hid under my subaru outback and would not come out for hours. the shooting process took about a month, but at the end, she knew the gunshot meant birds and was not scared at all. i amazed myself. hahaha.. didn't expect such a dramatic result.

P.I.G. Government vs. Corporate Debt
Tuesday, September 21, 2010The risk of corporate debt is often measured by looking at the spread between its yield and similar 'risk-free' government debt. The higher the spread, the greater the risk. However, when government credit comes into question, this spread is no longer suitable as a measure of corporate risk. The spread does, nevertheless, tell a story about relative risk. In Greece, Ireland, and Portugal, a number of sectors have negative corporate spreads, suggesting that firms are either less likely to default than their governments or will have higher recovery rates if they do default. The sector that stands apart as being much riskier than the government is financials. If these governments partially default, the guarantees they have made to the banking system are no longer credible, and the credit losses may be severe. Read more »

06:50, 45f, foggy. roosters hollarin'. guardian perky out by truck. brief walk with pup. donkeys complaining. chilly out. got almost 2" of rain yesterday.
10:00, 45f, gray, mizzling. 3 year old eagle huddling in dead pine along 345. ditches are full and the ponds in the pastures overflowing again. the folks who lived at the farm with the cows, horses, donkeys, geese, goats, and the llama have packed up and left, lock, stock, and barrel. their neighbors with the barrel-racing horses are still hanging on but seem to have a bit higher ground.
10:30, mid tide rising at CK. cormorants at oyster bar. north wind, 8 knts. 45f. bone-chilling cold with the wind off the water. fed cat something extra. untangled and perused a soaking wet trawl in the back of the boat. took a while with very cold hands in the cold wind. dumped water out of the trawls from the rain yesterday. cat helped, up on the boat in the cold wind. good cat! mended big seine, huddled behind its box.
16:00, mid-tide at #4 bridge. gulls and a heron at the oyster bar. white pelicans to the east on shell bars. NW wind, 8 knts. 48f. overcast. fed cat again.
a lot of tourists downtown (?). one passed me at the post office and said, "welcome to antarctica." which I thought was inappropriate. we are much better off than those folks up north.
18:00, 47f, overcast. cold north breeze. hay to all. got 1 egg. only the vaguely damp guardian seems comfortable today. building a little fire in the fireplace.
21:30, 45f, clearing! waxing almost half moon setting over the falling-down horse barn! haven't seen the moon in days. guardian down by front gate barking. pup wants to help. woodsmoke in the air. good night, moon..

Hi all,
Have bought and fitted an Alpine hands free /stereo/mp3 player to my jeep. Hands free element is via Bluetooth. On first launch of teh new kit I turned on Bluetooth in the phone and was connected and able to use in 30 secs or less.
I turn off the car and go back inside happy that I have sucessfully created teh connection, saved it as an automatic connection and that it should, at least in theory work to keep me from getting points on my licence from something other than speeding.
Two hours later I re-enter the car and low and behold my least favoruite acquisition in the last 5 years - you guessed it the Blackberry Storm - shows the hands free connection but is not connecting. I try resetting the Alpine kit. I reset the Storm. I reset both. No avail. As a control I take out my wife's nokia, my old nokia and my old (and it is fair to say nearly wrecked from use) Pearl. All three connnect in 30 seconds or less. All 3 connect again when either they or the car igniation is swiitched off inside 20 seconds - what is supposed to happen.
Thus it is fair to conculde that the Storm, not the Alpine kit is at fault. Each time I search for devices, the Alpine shows up. I then type in the pass code as for teh other phones. It then says unable to connect to device.
If anyone can fathom what this wonderful, well thought out and packed with common sense BoS is doing and help me iit would be much apprecaited. I have faith - the greast people (and I am not being sarcastic this time) of this forum have already helped twice to lower my blood pressure.
I just underpin your describtion. Even 10 months later the issue has not been solved and it is the same with my car kit. Poor RIM.... :-(
try this.
options>bluetooth>click on device>open device properties, make sure connect audio is checked.
I think there are 3 options for bluetooth, handset, headset, and audio. you can also check under manage connections, click on bluetooth options, all 3 should options should have an x or check mark if they are active. also make sure bluetooth is turned on there also
Hope this helps

Marco Corvo on the Corvo Brothers, Morte and the Denver art scene
The Corvo Brothers, Marco and R. Gonzago, come from a filmmaking background, but their preferred art form is still photography. The Denver transplants manipulate multiple photographs to create dreamscapes that almost come alive as "one frame films," explains Marco.
This Saturday, October 12, at Groundswell Gallery, the brothers will present Morte, "a thematic retrospective" centered around death, Marco says. From the haunting tintypes of their Victorian Women series to pieces from Metamorphosis, photographs depicting human bodies transforming into wax that are both beautiful and grotesque at the same time, Corvo Brothers images come alive even when dealing with death, energized by the juxtaposition of medical and religious themes.
In advance of the opening, Westword spoke with Marco Corvo about the brothers' work and the Denver art scene in general.

Westword: The medium of your art is photography. What are the techniques you use to construct the photos? I can't imagine it is a simple point and shoot?
Marco Corvo: Well, we are often labeled photographers, but both of us originally trained as filmmakers. What we do is create dreamscapes or narratives of wonder using multiple photographs, sometimes up to fifty for a single image, that are staged, manipulated and composited together. What you see in the final image are also painted backgrounds and sculpted pieces, made out of wax, for example. We approach each image as a single frame film and usually use a sketch-storyboard: We construct the sets, we cast the actors, light it, and create the special effects.
You're from Milan, where you were known as quite the advertising guru. What came first for you -- art or advertising?
Art always came first for me, although my years in advertising as an art director taught me a few things because I was able to work with amazing artists and photographers and learn from them. I haven't worked in advertising in more than ten years now.

How did the artistic relationship with Gonzago begin? Are you two one and the same, or do you bring vastly different styles to the table?
We began working together in about 2004. He had been working mainly as a cinematographer at that point, and still is, and I was experimenting with compositing photography and painting. Maybe because we both trained as cinematographers and have filmmaking experience, the best way to describe our roles are in film terms: We both produce the work, and on the set I do the directing and Gonzago is the cinematographer. I think we have a shared sensibility but, like a director and cinematographer, collaborate and negotiate to arrive at the final image.
The Corvo Brothers have had a lot of success in the Denver art scene, as well as around the world. Do you find Denver to be an inspiring place for art? Do you like the art scene in Denver?
I think that the last few years have brought exciting changes and great additions to the Denver art scene, with a lot more possibilities for local artists and artists working in really different styles and with really different visions to hang their work and have access to venues like the CVA, Redline, Denver MCA and the DAM, which are gaining national reputations. That, plus a thriving gallery scene, with both traditional and more "underground spaces" contributing to a really lively, exciting scene here. At the same time, I think it is still small enough to meet people, to exchange ideas and experiences with other artists. There has been a lot of talk about how Denver has been really welcoming for musicians to try out their material, meet other musicians, in order to then launch national careers, and I think that Denver has the possibility to do that in the visual arts as well.

What can people expect at your next show at Groundswell?
Well, it will be a "thematic" retrospective. We picked a number of pieces from different series we've done over the year that all deal with the theme of death. There are pieces from our first series, Victorian Women, which are printed on metal plates; there are pieces from our Orphans series that are large colorful narratives of wonder; and there are the dreamscapes from our latest series, Metamorphosis, that involve sculpted wax landscapes.
This is the first time we are showing at Groundswell. It has been a unique gallery experience for us, somewhere between a museum show and an underground or non-traditional gallery. You have two artists who are the curators and they select and invite artists that they think are an important or an interesting part of the Denver art scene. So, in some ways, there are fewer restraints or expectations than you might have in a traditional gallery or in a museum show. At Groundswell, the shows arise from a flexible and open dialogue between artist and curators.
The artist reception for Morte runs from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Saturday, October 12, at Groundswell Gallery, 3121 East Colfax Avenue. The exhibit will run through November 2.

Known for | Kasner metric Kasner polygon "googol" |
Edward Kasner (April 2, 1878 – January 7, 1955) was a prominent American mathematician who was appointed Tutor on Mathematics in the Columbia University Mathematics Department. Kasner was the first Jew appointed to a faculty position in the sciences at Columbia University.[1] Subsequently, he became an adjunct professor in 1906, and a full professor in 1910, at the university. Differential geometry was his main field of study. In addition to introducing the term "googol", he is known also for the Kasner metric and the Kasner polygon.[2]
Kasner's PhD dissertation was titled The Invariant Theory of the Inversion Group: Geometry upon a Quadric Surface; it was published by the American Mathematical Society in 1900 in their Transactions.
Googol and googolplex[edit]
Kasner is perhaps best remembered today for introducing the term "googol." In order to pique the interest of children, Kasner sought a name for a very large number: one followed by a hundred zeros. On a walk in the New Jersey Palisades with his nephews, Milton (1911-1981)[3] and Edwin Sirotta, Kasner asked for their ideas. Nine-year-old Milton suggested "googol."[4]
In 1940, with James R. Newman, Kasner co-wrote a non-technical book surveying the field of mathematics, called Mathematics and the Imagination (ISBN 0-486-41703-4). It was in this book that the term "googol" was first introduced:
Words of wisdom are spoken by children at least as often as by scientists. The name "googol" was invented by a child (Dr. Kasner's nine-year-old nephew) who was asked to think up a name for a very big number, namely, 1 with a hundred zeros after it. He was very certain that this number was not infinite, and therefore equally certain that it had to have a name. At the same time that he suggested "googol" he gave a name for a still larger number: "Googolplex." A googolplex is much larger than a googol, but is still finite, as the inventor of the name was quick to point out. It was suggested that a googolplex should be 1, followed by writing zeros until you get tired. This is a description of what would happen if one actually tried to write a googolplex, but different people get tired at different times and it would never do to have Carnera a better mathematician than Dr. Einstein, simply because he had more endurance. The googolplex then, is a specific finite number, with so many zeros after the 1 that the number is a googol. A googolplex is much bigger than a googol. You will get some idea of the size of this very large but finite number from the fact that there would not be enough room to write it, if you went to the farthest star, touring all the nebulae and putting down zeros every inch of the way. — [5]
The Internet search engine "Google" originated from a misspelling of "googol",[6][7][8] and the "Googleplex" - the Google company headquarters in Mountain View, California - is similarly derived from googolplex.

To discard energy is not always a vice. It is often good. Indeed, we keep inventing new ways to waste energy and have good reason to celebrate when we do. It is only by throwing most of the energy away that we can put what's left to productive use.
Consider how recklessly we waste energy to produce a mere 100 watts of light–and why. The sun offers us 100 watts of light for free, through a couple of square feet of skylight, at noon on a moderately sunny day. Yet we pay good money for a 100-watt bulb and electrons to power it. And thousands of times more for a mere 10 watts of laser light.
A 10-watt laser beam doesn't deliver more power than the bulb or the skylight–to the contrary, it delivers less, and we waste huge amounts of ordinary light producing it. It takes big arrays of flash lamps, mounted around a large gas cavity, to stimulate the emission of the knifelike laser beam. The laser burns light to generate light and tosses away most of its fuel in doing so. But we run it anyway, because better-ordered photons packed into less space are worth far more. Sunlight feeds cows. Lightbulbs help old eyes read in dim light. A laser can delicately vaporize tissue to improve our eyesight.
The laser's miserable plug-to-beam efficiency is only the last chapter in a long saga of dissipation. Directly behind the laser stands a complex array of power electronics–a "power supply" that burns electricity to supply electricity. This tier of waste is required to convert noisy grid power into power pure enough to run the laser. The grid power is produced by a generator driven by steam from a boiler heated (most typically) by a flame from coal. In the very best power plants half the raw heat in the coal is discarded into the atmosphere. And then, at each step along the way from the power plant to the laser, energy is wasted again.
Casual observers are easily convinced that there must be a better way. But, in fact, this huge pyramid of consumption, with its withering losses at every turn, simply reflects, in all its real-world complexity, one of the most fundamental laws of physics: the second law of thermodynamics. The second law dictates that if the input energy is of a sufficiently low grade (a coal flame, for example), two units of it must be funneled into a machine at one end to emerge as one unit of high-grade energy at the other. That means one unit of input becomes entirely useless heat. Energy doesn't just lounge about waiting for the chance to propel moms and kids to football fields–getting things to that point is an uphill battle.
Only 2% of the energy that starts out in an oil pool 2 miles under the Gulf of Mexico ends up propelling 200 pounds of mom-and-the-kids–the ultimate payload–2 miles to the game. When we run an air conditioner, we dump one unit of heat into some distant power plant's cooling tower so that we can dump four more units of (unwanted) energy out of the window of our living room. It takes perhaps ten units of raw thermal energy to pump one unit of ultrareliable electricity into a microprocessor CPU and to then pump the waste heat back out.
Almost all of our demand for energy derives from energy's capacity to refine energy. It is by throwing energy overboard in this way that we maintain and increase the order of our existence. That's what the energy debate is ultimately about–very complex and subtle tradeoffs and conversions, with order rising on one side and waste heat pouring out the other. We shouldn't fool ourselves into thinking we understand it well. Nor is it useful to spend much time urging others to curtail their "consumption of order" or declare that less order–which is to say more disorder–is the only way to save the planet.
This much is certain: It is by throwing energy overboard that we maintain and increase the order of our existence. Waste, in other words, is as virtuous as order, as virtuous as a tidy room, clean dishes, plaque-free teeth, a sterile operating theater or ice in the refrigerator. You cannot get or maintain such things without dissipating energy. Life and growth being inescapably dissipative processes, waste is as virtuous as life itself.

On the night of October 23rd, a 15-year-old girl in Richmond, California, was brutally assaulted by as many as seven young men between the ages of 15 and 20.
One policeman called the events of that night a "barbaric act" and "one of the most disturbing crimes in my 15 years as a police officer."
What disturbed him wasn't only the overt criminal acts but the response—or more precisely, the lack of a response—of those in a position to help.
According to the police, the victim had left a dance at Richmond High School and was in the school's courtyard when she was gang-raped. As heinous as this crime was, what made it a national story was that approximately 20 kids witnessed the attack and did nothing. Nothing.
Actually, it was worse than that. As word spread about the attack, people came to check it out. There are reports that some of the bystanders took pictures of the assault with their cell phone cameras instead of calling for help. Others laughed and a few even joined in the attack.
No sooner had police found the victim, semi-conscious under a bench, than attention focused on the behavior of the crowd. Comparisons were made to the 1964 murder of Kitty Genovese in New York, in which her neighbors supposedly ignored her cries for help because they didn't want to get involved.
While how many of Genovese's neighbors actually heard her cries for help is in dispute, there are no such doubts in this case. function fbs_click() {u=location.href.substring(0,location.href.lastIndexOf('/'));t=document.title;window.open('http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u='+encodeURIComponent(u)+'&t='+encodeURIComponent(t),'sharer','toolbar=0,status=0,width=626,height=436′);return false;}
So why didn't anyone do something to help? An obvious factor is fear. Richmond, California, has been described as "one of the nation's most dangerous cities," and its murder rate is higher than Oakland's or Los Angeles'. The school even recently approved the use of surveillance cameras following a series of violent crimes on campus.
In this setting, people have reason to believe that authorities cannot protect them and, thus, getting involved will put them at risk.
Even so, many people live in dangerous neighborhoods where "snitching" is dangerous, but they don't gather to watch another person being brutalized, much less take photos or laugh. After all, the attack ended when people down the street from the school learned what was happening and called the police.
The response that shocked the nation speaks to an indifference to the well-being of others among some of our children. Instead of empathy, these young people showed apathy—and, as one observer said, "a total indifference to [behavior], customs, mores, and sensibilities," the things we associate with being civilized.
What happened in Richmond, California, is an unsettling reminder that the standards that make a good society possible cannot be taken for granted. It doesn't take much to set them aside. That's why those standards and the beliefs that make them possible must be taught and renewed continuously.
As one Oakland pastor wrote, what happened on October 23rd "is reflective of a societal breakdown that is not limited to the Richmond city limits."
And that's what should disturb us the most.

Well, I gotsa different name for em! I call them going-up graphs 'The Opposite Of My Bank Account When I Give My Wife My Credit Card At The Shoe Store!' Hey, yuk yuk. Shoes, right?"
"Aww, geez, folks! I was a wearing my bell curve shirt out running the other day. Made it two blocks, covered in sweat. I'm talkin' drenched! So's I get back to the house and I says to my wife, 'can you clean this?' and she takes it, holds it over the faucet, wrings it out, and says, 'CLEAN!' What can I say, she really wrings my bell, eh? Let's give it up for exercise!"
"I tell you, folks, I was feelin' down on my luck after the divorce, and so I looks at the sky and says, 'Hey, how about a sign?' And right there in front of me one appears. It's a line, and it's long and wavy, and I looks back at the sky and I says, 'I said SIGN, not SINE!' Do you get it? It's a different spelling! Hey, that's my time!

Birmingham Airport is the seventh-busiest airport in the United Kingdom, with flights to a variety of domestic and international destinations. It is a well-equipped airport, with a similar range of facilities as Manchester Airport.
Liverpool John Lennon Airport
While it is a little smaller than Manchester and Birmingham Airports, Liverpool John Lennon Airport offers flights to many destinations, both domestic and international, and still offers a useful range of facilities, although the choice of shops and places to eat and drink is a little smaller.
Flight Routes to and from Welshpool
Manchester Airport is used by more than 50 airlines, which fly to over 190 direct destinations in Europe, North America, Africa and Asia, while Birmingham Airport hosts over 25 airlines flying to over 140 direct destinations, and Liverpool hosts six airlines to around 60 direct destinations in Europe. All three airports offer indirect flights to many more destinations, as well as a good number of domestic flights within the United Kingdom.

Musical Geek Friday #5: God Wrote in Lisp (The Eternal Flame)
This week on Musical Geek Friday - God Wrote in Lisp (also known as The Eternal Flame) song!
This song is written by Bob Kanefsky and is performed by Julia Ecklar. It's a parody of another song of hers - "God Lives on Terra".
The song is about a question which programming language God could have used to create us?
God had a tight 6 day deadline to create the world, so he had to make a smart decision which language to use. Some folks say that it could have been C++ or C, but these languages are out as God would not have been able to even count grains of sand with 32-bit integers! Others say it could have been Fortran, Java, COBOL or even APL. But we all know the truth...
God wrote the world in Lisp!

If you liked this song, it's included in a music CD "Roundworm" which contains parodies about Star Trek, dead cats, Lisp programming (this song), and everything in between!
Here is the lyrics of The Eternal Flame (God Wrote in Lisp) song:
I was taught assembler in my second year of school.
It's kinda like construction work — with a toothpick for a tool.
So when I made my senior year, I threw my code away,
And learned the way to program that I still prefer today.Now, some folks on the Internet put their faith in C++.
They swear that it's so powerful, it's what God used for us.
And maybe it lets mortals dredge their objects from the C.
But I think that explains why only God can make a tree.For God wrote in Lisp code
When he filled the leaves with green.
The fractal flowers and recursive roots:
The most lovely hack I've seen.
And when I ponder snowflakes, never finding two the same,
I know God likes a language with its own four-letter name.Now, I've used a SUN under Unix, so I've seen what C can hold.
I've surfed for Perls, found what Fortran's for,
Got that Java stuff down cold.
Though the chance that I'd write COBOL code
is a SNOBOL's chance in Hell.
And I basically hate hieroglyphs, so I won't use APL.Now, God must know all these languages, and a few I haven't named.
But the Lord made sure, when each sparrow falls,
that its flesh will be reclaimed.
And the Lord could not count grains of sand with a 32-bit word.
Who knows where we would go to if Lisp weren't what he preferred?And God wrote in Lisp code
Every creature great and small.
Don't search the disk drive for man.c,
When the listing's on the wall.
And when I watch the lightning
Burn unbelievers to a crisp,
I know God had six days to work,
So he wrote it all in Lisp.Yes, God had a deadline.
So he wrote it all in Lisp.

Have fun and until next geeky Friday! :)
Binny, not entirely true - God did most of the stuff in Lisp and used Perl in just a few places to hack bits and pieces together!
This is so why I'm an atheist - I just can't believe in a god that doesn't write brainf*ck, although I think that gods all write in whitespace, so that only they can see it. simulacrum.

BEIJING: Apple on Saturday opened its biggest Asian store yet in Beijing, with hordes of shoppers descending on the three-floor complex that highlights the growing importance of China to the US tech giant.
The shop, on the major shopping street of Wangfujing in the heart of the capital, covers an area of 2,300 square metres, according to Chinese media reports.
China is now the second-biggest market for Apple after the United States but the company has also faced frequent criticism for the conditions in which its products are produced in China.
The enthusiasm for the company's gadgets among the country's fast-growing consumer class was clear Saturday as shoppers quickly packed out the new shop shortly after it opened at 9:00 am (0100 GMT).
Around 100 people also waited outside to enter the store, Apple's sixth official outlet in mainland China, according to an AFP journalist at the scene.
Many other shops in China are also licensed to sell Apple products.
The popularity of Apple in China is such that the launch of new iPhone models has in recent years led to huge crowds jostling to get their hands on the smartphones and spawned a black market in the gadgets.
The latest criticism to hit a company linked to Apple came earlier this week when Taiwan's Foxconn, which makes products for the US tech giant, admitted employing children as young as 14 on assembly lines at a plant in China.
It was the latest in a string of problems to beset Foxconn, which has frequently been targeted for its labour practices following a spate of suicides in 2010 that activists blamed on tough working conditions.
Apple has seen its sales soar in China.
The company took in $12.4 billion in China in the first half of the current fiscal year to March, putting the company easily on course to eclipse the $13.3 billion in Chinese sales in the prior 12-month period.
