Topic: Open Forum

MikeG: ok
Bruce: Ours is BETTER!!!!
UTE: Bruce, your in Atlanta
Bruce: Lows this morning were 60 and the high is supposed to be 83
Bruce: About an hour north of Atlanta
MikeG: I don't know if we'll have many today being a holiday weekend...
Bruce: Tomorrow morning the low is supposed to be 53. I am wearing my jeans.
UTE: And the begiining of football seaseon!!!
Bruce: Right on!
MikeG: :)
Bruce: Morning Poohsdaddy
MikeG: how's the weather in WI today?
poohsdaddy: Good Morning All ...
Bruce: Yes, I have been waiting for the fall kickoff of college football. It makes the weekends interesting again.
poohsdaddy: Daylight and upper50's now.... I'm guessing. Haven't been out today.
Bruce: Morning Ted
TedA: Good morning from Richmond, VA
MikeG: we've had such poor turnouts at our preseason games that they don't even televise the games...
MikeG: morning Ted
Bruce: I was out watching the beaver this morning taking their morning swim around the lake. ALways nice to start the day that way.
MikeG: nice
poohsdaddy: I watched most or the pre-season Packer games; and liked the 59-20-ish against the Colts.
UTE: Bruce, how big is your lake?
Bruce: Is anybody running Windows 7? I am considering updating from XP Pro.
MikeG: me2
TedA: Yes I have Windows 7
Bruce: Rich, it is a small springfed lake of 11 acres surround by woodes on one side.
poohsdaddy: Yes... I'm on #7. It installs the updates automatically.
Bruce: What do you think of it Ted. Is is worth the upgrade?
UTE: Sounds beautiful and like the lake I grew up on in Michigan
MikeG: did anyone upgrade from Vista?
TedA: It has some things that XP did not, but I'm not really great on computers. It is working good for me.
Bruce: Rich we have all kinds of wildlife ... Great Blue and Green Herons, otters, beaver, osprey, great egrets, bald eagles, etc. etc.
Bruce: I never get bored taking my dog for his walks around the lake.
MikeG: sounds nice Bruce... want some company next week?
Bruce: Come on up. We have all kinds of room.
MikeG: how far are you from Blairsville?
MikeG: morning Stan
Stan: Morning everybody
Bruce: About 1½ hours or so across the mountains. Ellejay is an hour from home.
UTE: Stan, been out to your lake lately?
Bruce: Morning Stan
Stan: This past Thursday
MikeG: we'll take it into consideration - maybe on the way back on Friday.
Stan: Morning Bruce
Bruce: Mike, we are five minutes from I-75.
UTE: Bruce, what kind of dog do you have?
MikeG: sorry to hear you can't make it to the conference Stan - it sounds like it will be a good one.
Bruce: Beagle ... eleven years old. A stray that showed up on our door and could hardly walk. He had everything wrong with him and the vet wanted to put him down. We said NO and the rest is history. He is a great friend and a joy to be around.
MikeG: I know a lot of us can't travel very well - especially throught airports.
Stan: Too many things going on and not enough money Mike.
Bruce: I know very few that are doing well with their investments, jobs, houses, etc. during this economy. Tough times!
UTE: Bruce, I have a five month old cone head this morning...he's a pomeranian/multse who just got neutered yesterday
Bruce: Not a happy camper today I bet.
MikeG: we need to have smaller get-togethers in different regions of the country that people could drive to...
Bruce: Yes, Mike, we tried that once and perhaps it is time to try it again.
Bruce: My dod g did not like the cone around his head.
MikeG: I bet that's not the only thing he didn't like... :(
TedA: More local / regional meetings sounds good to me. Driving is easier then flying unless it is a long distance
Bruce: I believe the issue is how far is too far.
Bruce: I use to travel 50% of the time on my job. I cannot even consider taking a trip today by air ... especially a long one.
Stan: I have to drive at least an hour to get to an airport to even go anywhere else in the country.
MikeG: yep - we could pick several big cities and do simultaneous get-togethers,
TedA: Maybe someone could take a suvey as to who would likke a reginal meeting and find out in what areas this would be doable
Bruce: What was it about six or seven years ago we had the one in Pennsylvania?
UTE: Speaking of flying...if anyone ever flys or drives thru Salt Lake to get to Yellowstone or elsewhere, stop by
MikeG: I would be willing to drive 8 hours with no problem at all.
poohsdaddy: Sounds like a good idea to consider regional meeting.
Bruce: My problem is bathrooms (finding one that I can use ... get up afterwards).
MikeG: Rich, we have some friends who just got back from there. We were kidding them about being Bonnie & Clyde a few weeks ago.
poohsdaddy: I know what you mean Bruce.... I had to ask my son for help one day this week to get up.
MikeG: me 2 Bruce - need the tall potty.
TedA: I would be willing to drive 6 hours. Richmond is 2 hours from DC, 3 from Baltimore, close to Norfork and cities in North Carolina.
MikeG: and grab bars would be even better.
UTE: I had to drop out of a MD support group here in Utah as public transportation is my maIN MEANS of travel now
Bruce: Speaking of tall commodes, have you noticed how many handicap stalls are always occupied when you need one?
MikeG: yep - by perfectly capable people too!
poohsdaddy: YES.... and many places that claim to be accessible really are not for those who need them.
Stan: Makes it easier to read a paper or magazine. Isn't it what they are for?
TedA: They are occupied All the time and by able body (AB) people.
Bruce: I had to go a few months back and stopped at a Visitor Center. Every stall was occupied. A wonderful janitorial person guess my need and opened up a single handicapped bathroom around the corner for me. NICE
MikeG: lucky!
UTE: At work I need both the ADA rails and side of powerchair to get up in wc
poohsdaddy: It bothers me to go shopping.... or elsewhere and see the AB using the parking designated for those of us who really need them.
Bruce: I love the handicapped marked stalls that are normal height and the hand rails are very low. It does me no good. Fortunately, I carry a tallette with me and that adds 4½ inches in height.
TedA: Even when I can get standing again then the challenge is to get the pants up, shirt tucked in and belt buckled
MikeG: Ted, Richmond would be a very good spot. We could pick cities like that and Atlanta, Chicago, etc...
Bruce: Ted!!!! Right on. That is so difficult when you are already tired from struggling to stand up.
MikeG: yes - and the button on the jeans buttoned!!!
Bruce: We sound like a bunch of old farts having coffee at the local shop on a Saturday morning.
TedA: I usually dress next to the bed so I can lie down to do half of the dressing. Easier then fighting gravity!!!
MikeG: :)
poohsdaddy: That's when you need a really good friend for help... or you may become acquainted with a stranger quicker than antiipated. :|
MikeG: have you been sailing lately Ted?
TedA: Cut the button hole just a little bigger helps
MikeG: good idea!
Bruce: Poohsdaddy, my wife has had to walk into a men's room more than once in the last few years to bail me out.
Bruce: Morning Terry
TerryW: Hello
MikeG: hey Terry
Stan: Morning Terry
TerryW: Been a busy week
poohsdaddy: Been there, done that. Had the cook and dishwasher come in to help at a restaurant a while ago.... They were not embarassed nearly as much as I was. lol
Bruce: We are having a complaint session this morning about handicap restrooms, etc.
TedA: No sailing yet in VA. Sportable Extutive Director and I wrote a grant proposal to US Paralympics Military and we will here bi 9/18. When we get it we will get sailboats to start our program next Spring
UTE: Terry, how are things at the ranch
TerryW: Been outside most of the week. Getting water lines hooked back up to the horse arena to keep the dust down when Susanne rides
TerryW: 4 large sprinklers to spray over the 100 X 90 arena
Bruce: Terry, you always have some project going on out there.
TerryW: Yes, I can't keep up
TerryW: But I do my best
Bruce: Terry, it keeps you young.
TerryW: Next is Solar
TerryW: 42 panels
Bruce: When will you be totally green?
TerryW: Our electric bill runs about $400 a month
TerryW: goes up 8% a year
Bruce: WOW!
MikeG: good for you, Ted. I hope you can get it approved - I know how much you love sailing!
Bruce: I miss sailing. It was one of my real joys in life.
TerryW: Our stable roof is setup at the perfect angle
poohsdaddy: The last couple weeks have been rough here for my wife and me. We had to have our dog and cat put to sleep.... And her sister died last Thursday. We're still in shock over it.
TerryW: SOrry Pooh, that is so hard to do
TerryW: :(
Bruce: Tough times ...
MikeG: the MDA sponsors an ALS day in Clearwater every year - very nice facility!
MikeG: sorry to hear that poohsdaddy
TerryW: And then to lose a family member, So Sorry
Bruce: For several years we chartered a 41 foot C&C and sailed the San Juan Islands. It was the greatest!
MikeG: nice!
Bruce: I still like the ""J-boats"" for fun though.
MikeG: some beautiful water there
TedA: Any sailboat is fun!
poohsdaddy: She had retired recently to care for her husband who has been ill for years with dimentia or Alzheimer's.
MikeG: yep - I used to do the trapeeze on hoby cats
Bruce: WOW, that is really tough on the family.
MikeG: pretty wild!
TerryW: Handicap bathrooms LOL, WHen I go into the grocery store and try to use the urinal I stand and sway back & forth can't hardly balance, people walk in and think I am drunk
TedA: Me too, Hobbie 16
TerryW: I usually try to use the stall if it is not in use
Bruce: I look for someplace I can stand against a wall or stall side for support.
TerryW: do the one armed stand against the wall
MikeG: that's what I do - go for the corner
TedA: At the YMCA where I have been doing 3 work outs a week in the pool they let me use the Family changing rooms w/ shower, ADA toilet w/ grab bars.
MikeG: that's good
poohsdaddy: We keep and empty ""soda bottle"" in the car just in case I need it. Have to aim very carefully!! ;)
Bruce: Funny
MikeG: lol
Bruce: Handiwipes are good to carry in the car also,
TerryW: With all the stuff I have to do around here I don't need the gym :) It's workout enough
poohsdaddy: Got 'em
TedA: Have you heard about Travel Johns? Very compact and easy to use.
poohsdaddy: ??
MikeG: Ted, how long do you walk in the pool?
Bruce: I have always said we need to write about our experiences because they make for some of the funniest scenes. Not even Saturday Night Live could play it as well as our personal experiences.
MikeG: true - :)
poohsdaddy: Doesn't get as embarassing as it used to either to ask for someone to help, but give new meaning to ""custopmer service"" personnel.
TedA: 30m minutes 3 times a week. I mix it up with swimming, jumping, treading wateer, stretching, etc.
Bruce: When I broke the tibia and fibula that one year, I learned how to bite the bullet when it comes to finding places to go when a safe restroom was not readily available.
MikeG: very good
Bruce: Morning Luis
TerryW: I have tons of real granite boulders here on the property but I had to end up buying a huge fake hollow one to cover the new wellhead
TerryW: LOL
MikeG: hi Luis
loshimo11: Good Morning everyone!! Sorry I'm late joining in... Had to run some early errands with the wife.
MikeG: so you got your well put in?
TerryW: yes 36GPM
TerryW: Yipee
Bruce: Luis, did you ever explain to your wife that the KDA chat room is far more important than any of her errands?
MikeG: and drinkable!
TerryW: compared to the 3/4 GPM we had
TerryW: Yes pure from deep granite reserves
TerryW: clear clean
loshimo11: Bruce, I've mentioned it to her many times!!! She just doesn't listen well!!!
poohsdaddy: Bruce, do you think she'd believe that ?
MikeG: that 1 1/2 horse shallow well I have produces 60 GPM but it's not at all potable!
Bruce: I believe my wife is hard of hearing because she hears very little of what I say these days.
Bruce: I am always recommending this or asking her to do it this way and she just does not hear me.
MikeG: selective hearing - :)
TerryW: when I get tired Susanne says I mumble and sound drunk
poohsdaddy: It's called ""Marital Deafness""..... We all have it once in a while.
loshimo11: Bruce... Actually, she tells me it's selective hearing... one of her many gifts...
Bruce: I love it!
Stan: Bruce, it's the right -brain, left-braiin thing. You're talking to the wrong side of her head.
Bruce: You guys are making me laugh today. Thanks
poohsdaddy: I have a good excuse.... deaf in one ear since birth.
loshimo11: Terry... my wife says the same thing... I'm starting to think I'm drunk all the time.
Bruce: Morning Yakima
TerryW: It's pretty bad when you walk into a Bar and you have KD, you get to the counter and they say ""No more for you buddy"" :D
Bruce: How are things in the Apple Country
MikeG: morning Kid
poohsdaddy: Do any of you know how to prevent a sneeze ? Take a laxative --- and you'll be afraid to sneeze. hahahahaha
Bruce: Good One Terry
TerryW: thank you, I will be here all week
loshimo11: Terry... that's a good one!!! Hadn't heard it before!!
yakima kid: Hello, too early for me!
TerryW: Just mader it up
TerryW: How about those guys trapped in that mine in Chile?
TerryW: Hoppe they get them out
MikeG: before Christmas!!!
TedA: They are going tom have a long wait to see the sun again.
loshimo11: I remember many years ago, I had to drive my brother in law to the emergency room when he started experiencing chest pains. The ER was at the top of the hill and when we got there, they wanted to take me in instead of my in-law. True story.
poohsdaddy: Heard they could be together there for 10-12 more weeks.... depending on the drilling of another shaft.
Bruce: I man walks out of a convenience store with two foot long hot dogs, a large bag of chips, a gallon of ice cream, and stuffing a jelly donut in his mouth. A homeless man sitting by the door said, ""Please Mister, I haven't eaten in three days."" The man finished stuffing the donut in and replied, ""Man that is great! I wish I had your will power.""
TerryW: I hear they are sending them down lots of stuff to keep them busy. I heard that they are not sending down any Ciggs or Alcohol, I guess In Chile thy don't server Miners also :)
TerryW: Bad Joke
TerryW: Head that one this weel
TerryW: week
TerryW: That would be a terrible situation to be in
MikeG: I wonder what they do about the waste??? send it up?
TerryW: I was thinking that also Mike, probably bags to do it in
Bruce: It still amazes me that they cannot reach them. The families must be going crazy.
TedA: dig a hole and bury it
poohsdaddy: Hope they all get along with one another.... No arguing... and no place else to go.
TerryW: that is going to be a movie of the week
TerryW: and a book
yakima kid: keep it up, I'm still asleep!
Bruce: Maintaining your sanity would be difficult ... nothing really to do and no sunlight.
poohsdaddy: I was trapped in the elevator in the Sears Tower in Chicago several years ago; and can only imagine what it's like for them.
Bruce: Morning Paul
TerryW: Bruce makes a great greeter
MikeG: the picture I saw looked like they were deep in a mountain... I wonder why they don't drill in from the side instead of the top?
Bruce: Being stuck in an elevator would be no fun.
TedA: How long were you traped in the elevator for?
Paul Sramek: Good Morning
MikeG: hi Paul
poohsdaddy: And there was a pregnant lady there too.... for nearly eighteen hours.
TerryW: wow Pooh
Bruce: In my last year at work when stairs were becoming more difficult for me, we had a fire drill. Walking down two flights of stairs when people are rushing by is no fun. I was the last one out of the building and as soon as I arrived, they sounded the all clear.
loshimo11: Wait... she was only pregnat for 18 hours??
MikeG: lol
Bruce: Eighteen hours would be difficult ... no food, water, or facilities.
TedA: Hope everyone was friendly
poohsdaddy: No, she had already been expanding for eight months... and was in the elevator for 18 hours.
Bruce: What floor were you near?
yakima kid: mabe a woman volinteered her hand bag?
poohsdaddy: Between 98 and 99.... or near the top. It had been a power failure on a Friday afternoon.... until Saturday.
Bruce: Well, family have arrived, I need to go. Thanks for the laughs today guys. It was a great session. Enjoy the holiday.

Stan: I get to go out and work in the yard after the chat.
poohsdaddy: Thanks guys.... See you here again in two weeks.
MikeG: I have two phone calls to return...

Alas, the question presumes a type of normalcy and natural order of the parent-child relationship that betrays the root of narcissism. Go ahead and admit your failures to your friends; your humanness will endear yourself to them. News bulletins also have to compete with entertainment programs for their audience and for their prime-time TV slot, and seem to do this by emphasizing emotionally relevant material such as crime, war, famine, etc.
Well, there is good reason to believe that the negative sensationalism in news has been gradually increasing over the past years. Another cool color, blue is typically a calming and serene color, said to decrease respiration and lower blood pressure. Your friend who eats only raw, vegan food, and believes that others will necessarily leap at the opportunity to share their diet, is succumbing to the false-consensus effect.
Common Psychological Effects of Colors The following are some common psychological effects of colors in the Western Hemisphere.
As professor of journalism studies Bob Franklin wrote some years ago: Over to you now. If you believe something is true of yourself, eventually it will be. Purple Psychological effect both red and blue to provide a nice balance between stimulation and serenity that is supposed to encourage creativity.
We constructed three different min news bulletins. If so, how did you deal with overcoming them? The estimations of the test subjects were twice as high as the actual number.
Cool colors — such as green, blue and purple — often spark feelings of calmness as well as sadness.
As the hot shower air rises and replaces cold air, it loses density, causing a pressure imbalance that leads to the curtain moving inward.
Their expectations for this group were higher, and their expectations created the reality. This is one of the psychological effects of drug addiction involved in "craving" of the drug.
At the beginning of the year, all the students took an assessment test, and Rosenthal led the teachers to believe that certain students were capable of great academic achievement. With young children, the narcissistic parent is experienced as unpredictable and confusing.
There is often one group member who puts off deadlines and assignments because of diffused responsibility: Those of us with flaws win out every time.
Common traits that show up in studies of the effect include, among others, kindness, virtuosity, luck, and investing ability.
In one test, they offered six varieties; another test, they offered The child of the narcissist must cater to and keep their partner happy, even when that involves squashing her own needs and feelings. Regarding mortality, one-in-four deaths are due to the effects of drug addiction.
Have you ever wondered why so many restaurants use these colors? To read some of the comments is heartbreaking, and calls into question how strange and illogical it is to create such rigorous adoption laws when an ill-fit individual can procreate whenever they want — and mess up the life of a child without suffering a consequence.
These could be great colors for a home or business office. Understanding the psychology behind the way we tick might help us to tick even better.
We found that those people who had watched the negative news bulletin spent more time thinking and talking about their worry and were more likely to catastrophise their worry than people in the other two groups.But the effect of negatively valenced news is much broader than that – it can potentially exacerbate a range of personal concerns not specifically relevant to the content of the.

Thousands of eggs, embryos possibly damaged at OH hospital
- by Freda Gordon
- in Medicine
- — Mar 10, 2018
Hundreds of families' dreams of having a baby using frozen eggs or embryos may have been dashed due to a storage tank malfunction at an OH fertility center.
Between the overnight hours Saturday to Sunday, one of the egg and embryo liquid nitrogen storage tanks began warming up. "We have already initiated contact with all of our patients to inform them and respond to their questions, and set up a designated call center to arrange personal meetings or calls with their physicians", UH said in the statement.
This is a representational image showing a technician opening a vessel containing women's frozen egg cells in Amsterdam, April 6, 2011. An American Society for Reproductive Medicine rep says nothing like this has ever happened at a United States fertility clinic. They do not know yet if it was a mechanical malfunction or human error. Storage for embryos also cost hundreds of dollars from year to year but have shown to last in the freezer process for decades. And for some families, the treatment is their only chance at conceiving a child.
The hospital said it does not yet know what caused the problem and is investigating.
"It's devastating", DePompei told WKYC.
Staff members are working with experts to "better understand the cause of this temperature fluctuation and ensure that it doesn't happen again", she said.
Police vehicle set alight after 'booby trap bomb explodes' in Northern Ireland
Forensic officers have found no evidence of a booby trap bomb, and now suspect a mechanical malfunction of some kind. The officer is not believed to have been in the auto - thought to be her personal vehicle - at the time.
Embryologists who arrived at the center on Sunday morning were alerted by an alarm that the temperature of the tank had increased, administrators told the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Each vile contained two to three eggs or embryos from each patient.
All of the samples have been moved to another storage tank that's being monitored by staff around the clock.
Hundreds of patients at University Hospitals Fertility Center are dealing with some devastating news.
It is unknown at this time how much it will cost to fix this, with University Hospitals saying it could mean procedure fees would be waived for future treatment, according to WEWS. "We are committed to getting answers and working with patients individually to address their concerns", University Hospitals said in a statement. Some people had multiple samples stored, and some eggs and embryos have been stored since the 1980s.
"We don't know the reasons why yet", DePompei said. UH over-nighted letters to all patients impacted.

New England Survey @ PRC Boston
This exhibition surveys contemporary work from, of, and about the New England landscape, featuring one artist from (or project based in) each of the 6 New England states: Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Maine, and Vermont. The photographers/projects include Barbara Bosworth, Jonathan Sharlin, Tanja Alexia Hollander, Janet L. Pritchard, Thad Russell, and Paul Taylor. New England Survey serves as an occasion and a location in which we can meditate upon on the grander, ineffable "sense of place" unique to this area.
Barbara Bosworth, famous for her "Trees: National Champions" series, continues her work with the 8x10 view camera. She continues with this work in color however, and the work begs to ask why she hasn't always been shooting color! The new series is titled "Meadow, Carlisle, Massachusetts." The work is printed extraordinarily well at 40"x50". I especially like the way each print has a different color palette. It really feels like the color pallette of the image is different and not just the color cast. The photographs show the cycle of a specific meadow in Massachusetts.
Tanja Alexia Hollander joins the exhibition to represent Maine. Hollander uses a spur of the moment method of shooting, setting her focus on infinity and shooting from the hip. While the photographs are enticing and beautiful, as a local New Englander I find it hard to identify with Hollanders representation of the Maine landscape. All of the photographs exhibited are flat, drab, and full of fog. It makes you wonder why Maine is full of nothing but reeds and bogs. Where is the rocky Maine coast and endless forest? While the photographs are quite interesting, they don't work as well in survey of Maine.
Janet L. Pritchard's work focuses on the historical nature of man's interaction with the New England landscape, and the marks he has left behind. Sometimes it seems like the New England woods are litered with history. Behind every tree are the remains of a farmers handmade wall, each stone pulled from his field so he could provide for his family. It actually makes you wonder why settlers were stupid enough to try and farm land chock full of rocks. Every New Englander has at one time or another come across history in their own backyard, and Pritchard's work is about just that. She combines Polaroid Type 55 negatives with digital processes and samples the tones of traditional tintypes to create a process all her own. The reference to 19th century photography is more interesting than the melding of traditional and digital processes. This work may have been even more effective if it was made from wet collodion negatives. It would have been hard to view this work as a contact printed alternative process such as platinum/palladium because the small size would have limited the viewing of the work.
Thad Russell created work in the wake of his Mother's death caused by cancer. He split his time between his home in Providence and his parent's home in northern Vermont. The work is interesting, but seems very personal. The statement talks about the work in regards to his parents "off the grid" lifestyle of living with the land, but the information about Russell's mother is like a monkey on your back you just can't get off. Once the viewer knows that information the work completely transforms into something else. The idea of a family living with their land in a modern society is an interesting one, and is actually being explored by a contemporary of mine, Adam DuComb. Russell's work however is detached and vague and therefor quite ineffective. The most interesting thing about his part in the exhibition was his choice of framing. Russell used what appears to be untreated wood for his frames, which is the only choice of exhibition in the group to connect to the landscape. I found this an interesting choice of frame material but was contested by many of my colleagues. They found the choice tacky and unnecessary. To each is own I suppose.
Jonathan Sharlin's work in this show is simple but enjoyable. Sharlin is an avid outdoorsman and often brings his 4x5 Camera with him. The images for this exhibition were created at his favorite spots in Rhode Island, and are luscious black and white inkjet prints created from scanned Type 55 negatives. (There are two artists in this show who will be very disappointed about the cease of production of Polaroid film.) The work emphasizes the experiential quality of a walk in the woods.
Paul Taylor uses wet plate collodion negatives and sellenium toned silver gelatin prints stained with tea to create images which are a timeless representation of the rivers of New England. The prints are quite large and have the feel of vintage photographs and Luminist paintings, yet with a contemporary aura. Taylor has mastered his craft and does not sacrifice detail for aesthetic. His images are bold and detailed, as well as soft and manageable. His images certainly give a fresh look at the New England landscape, while referencing the history of photography, and the history of the landscape itself.
New England Survey Online
The PRC invites you to share your photographs with our new Flickr group, "New England Survey Online." This is an un-curated, open opportunity for all to share and discuss photographs which resonate with our upcoming exhibition and asks "What is New England about New England landscape?" We are hoping to gather together images that explore a state of mind and a sense of place that is unique to this region. We invite you to post your thoughts about this issue as well as any information on your images (and even poems too!). Join us and show off your work!

text: Posted August 19, 2014 From what I understand was the performance improvement for P3D2.3 in the first place aimed at better performance with clouds(weather engine) and from what I read would the ASN update also improve performance, so I'm a little confused to see that when I turned on ASN with the same settings as in P3D2.2(just 2 cloud layers, draw distance of 80) my FPS dropped by more than 20FPS, while in 2.2 that was only a drop of 10FPS with comparable weather (just cloudy, no rain, no storm). Wasnt the whole idea behind the updates to be able to use more cloud layers, a better draw distance and be able to turn cloud shadows on? I've got 10-14FPS left, while in 2.2 I still could count on 20-25FPS. I also notice that when I set my cloud draw distance to 80 in ASN, it pushes my cloud draw distance in P3D back to 70 and with cloud draw distance 70 in ASN, the cloud draw distance in P3D is pushed back to 60. Anyone who can shed some light on this? Sorry for the multiple posts, server kept disconnecting... :( Share this post Link to post

A rare campaign to recall a California judge who drew controversy for his handling of a sexual-assault case involving a Stanford University swimmer cleared a major hurdle this week and could be headed for a June ballot.
Backers submitted nearly 95,000 signatures Thursday to local officials in support of a recall of Santa Clara County Superior Court Judge Aaron Persky, a former prosecutor who has been on the bench since 2003.
In 2016, Judge Persky sentenced former Stanford University swimmer Brock Turner to six months in jail for sexually assaulting an unconscious woman, a punishment many critics considered too lenient. Mr. Turner had faced a maximum of 14 years in prison for the assault, and prosecutors had sought a six-year sentence.
Judge Persky sued to halt the signature-gathering effort last year, citing alleged violations in how the recall was unfolding and saying California's secretary of state should be the one to oversee the process, not local officials.
Elizabeth Pipkin, an attorney for Judge Persky, said Thursday that the recall campaign doesn't comply with the California constitution. "We look forward to defending the Constitution and the independence and discretion of superior court judges in the interest of protecting the rights of all citizens," Ms. Pipkin said.
From the Archives
The judge switched to overseeing civil cases in August 2016 following his own request to stop hearing criminal matters, citing the distraction the Turner case was causing.
In December of that year, a California judicial disciplinary panel found no grounds to sanction Judge Persky, saying Mr. Turner's sentence wasn't an abuse of judicial discretion.
If roughly two-thirds of the collected signatures clear a verification process, a vote seeking to remove and replace the judge could occur as soon as June 5, alongside the gubernatorial primary.
Sitting judges are rarely recalled; the last successful attempt was in 1977 in Wisconsin, according to Joshua Spivak, an expert on recall elections and a senior fellow at the Hugh L. Carey Institute for Government Reform at Wagner College. In California, no judges have been recalled since 1932.
Michele Dauber, the Stanford Law School professor leading the recall effort, said the criticisms against the judge extend beyond the Brock Turner case. She pointed also to a case in which the judge sentenced a man convicted of felony child pornography to four days in jail in 2015, and to leniency showed to a college athlete in a domestic-abuse case.
"There's a pattern of bias here," she said.
Judge Persky has said he "always tries to be fair and follow the law without regard to public opinion," and said California judges must consider rehabilitation and probation for first-time offenders, even if it's not always popular.
Ms. Dauber said that more than 200 volunteers spent four months canvassing neighborhoods and going to local events to gather the signatures.
Several dozen law professors spoke out to oppose the recall effort last summer, writing in a joint letter that it "threatens the fundamental principles of judicial independence and fairness that we all embed in the education of our students."
Mr. Turner ultimately served three months in county jail of his six-month sentence and is appealing his conviction.
Corrections & Amplifications
Judge Aaron Persky's last name was misspelled as Perksy in an earlier version of this article. (Jan. 12, 2018)

St Patrick's Day Parade, Killarney
The Theme for St Patrick's Day Parade 2018 is "Killarney You're Looking Good"
"Celebrating 60 Years of the National Tidy Town's Competition"
This year we are celebrating 60 years of the National Tidy Town's Competition under the banner of "Killarney You're Looking Good". As you all know Killarney has a huge tradition of participation in the Tidy Towns competition winning the overall award in 2011 and maintaining its status as Gold Medal winner for each of the last 14 years.
So what is it that makes Killarney look so good? Is it just the tidy appearance of our town or is it the beauty of our natural environment, the National Park, The Lakes and Mountains.
It could be many things, our streetscapes, our building's, our history, our heritage, our people, our warmth and welcoming nature. Killarney You're Looking Good can be interpreted in many ways and this is where you come in.
Get your thinking caps on, open your minds and get the creative juices flowing, you have heard it said a million times and more "There is no place like Killarney". Let's illustrate that to the world, join us on St Patrick's Day 2018.
You are invited to interpret the theme with lots of colour and fun and in as open a way as you wish.
As is the norm, it is our intention to paint the town green and we look forward to you joining us on Saturday, March 17th 2018.

Hello, thank you for viewing.
I'm currently experiencing a strange problem with my laptop. Whenever I certain gaming program run in the background (not in focus) the applications seem to shift back and forth from from "Running" and "Not Responding" almost like it constantly refreshes itself (every 3 or so seconds). However, if I keep one of those programs in focus, the problem doesn't occur as often. The task bar always seems to be moving as a result of this (almost doing a dance if I open enough programs that have this problem).
I've tried updating drivers, installed all service packs, scanned computer with Malware Bytes, Norton... nothing seems to fix the issue.
I'm using Windows 7, 64 bit 6.1 (7061), ATI Mobile Radeon HD 5650
I hope someone has some info on this, thank you for your help!

Reader question: "I went through foreclosure in 2009, and I've been renting since then. I would like to buy another home later this year in 2014. The problem is the foreclosure is still showing up on my credit report. Is it possible to get financing while it's on there? Where can I get another mortgage loan with a foreclosure on my credit?"
I have some good news for you. Well, maybe. If your foreclosure was the result of an "economic event" that was beyond your ability to control — like a job loss, and/or a major reduction in overall household income — you could get an FHA-insured mortgage loan in as little as one year after the foreclosure event.
You didn't specifically ask about the FHA program. But it's currently the fastest way to get a mortgage loan with a foreclosure on your credit report. At least for those borrowers who meet the "economic event" criteria established by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Here's what you need to know about this rule change…
New Rule for Getting an FHA Mortgage After Foreclosure
The FHA rule change was announced in the fall of last year. It shortened the "waiting period" to 12 months for certain borrowers who have been through a foreclosure, short sale or bankruptcy. The new rule is effective through the end 2014, and possibly beyond. Previously, borrowers had to wait much longer to get another FHA mortgage with a foreclosure on their credit record, up to three years in some cases.
For complete details, just do a Google search for "HUD Mortgagee Letter 2013-26." That was the letter that announced the rule change back in August of 2013. Here's what it says about borrowers who have been through foreclosure and still have it on their credit reports:
Borrowers that may be otherwise ineligible for an FHA-insured mortgage due to waiting period for bankruptcies, foreclosures, deeds-in-lieu, and short sales … may be eligible for an FHA-insured mortgage if the borrower (A) can document that the delinquencies were the result of an Economic Event as defined in this letter, (B) has completed satisfactory Housing Counseling, as described in this letter, and (C) meets all other HUD requirements.
That's the FHA. But what about conventional financing? Where can you get a standard or "regular" mortgage loan with a foreclosure on your credit report? The good news for you is that four or five years have passed since you were foreclosed on. This will put you past the minimum waiting period required by most lenders (though some may implement a stiffer waiting period of five to seven years).
Whether you decide to pursue an FHA or a conventional loan, there are certain commonalities:
- If you can document extenuating circumstances that led to the foreclosure, you'll be able to get a loan sooner.
- If you have reestablished a pattern of good credit since the event took place, you'll have an easier time qualifying.
Remember those two phrases in green font. They are the key to getting another mortgage loan.
It Can Stay On Your Credit Report Up to Seven Years
As you've said, the foreclosure is still on your credit report. That's perfectly normal. By law, it can stay on your report for up to seven years. But that doesn't necessarily mean you have to wait seven years to take on another mortgage. In fact, it's possible to get approved for another loan even while the foreclosure is on your credit report.
According to MyFICO, the company that invented the FICO credit-scoring model:
…it's a common misconception that [a home foreclosure] will ruin your score for a very long time. In fact, if you keep all of your other credit obligations in good standing, your FICO score can begin to rebound in as little as 2 years … a foreclosure is a single negative item, and if you keep this item isolated, it will be much less damaging to your FICO score.
So while a foreclosure can stay on your report for up to seven years, it's still possible to improve your score during that time (after the initial damage). It's also possible to get another mortgage loan before seven years is up, even with the foreclosure still on your report.
Refer back to those key phrases from earlier: "extenuating circumstances" and "pattern of good credit." If you have financially rebounded from the event, meaning you have reestablished a pattern of responsible financial behavior, you'll have an easier time getting approved for another home loan. Additionally, if you can show that extenuating circumstances (factors beyond your control) were the cause of your foreclosure, you might qualify sooner — in as little as 12 months with the FHA program.

Train grammars on parallel corpora?
New weakly supervised learning approach for (probabilistic) syntactic grammars: Training data: Parallel corpora – collections of original texts and their translations into one or more languages Preparatory step: Identification of word correspondences with known statistical techniques (word alignment from statistical machine translation) en de fr Heute stellt sich die Lage jedoch völlig anders dar The situation now however is radically different
Train grammars on parallel corpora?
Beyond lexical information, patterns in the word correspondence relation contain rich implicit information about the grammars of the languages One should be able to exploit this implicit information about structure and meaning for grammar learning Little manual annotation effort should be required Combination of insights from linguistics and machine learning Heute stellt sich die Lage jedoch völlig anders dar The situation now however is radically different
The PTOLEMAIOS Project
Parallel Corpus-Based Grammar Induction: PTOLEMAIOS Parallel-Text-based Optimization for Language Learning – Exploiting Multilingual Alignment for the Induction Of Syntactic Grammars Funded by DFG (German Research Foundation) as an Emmy Noether research group Universität des Saarlandes (Saarbrücken), Department of Computational Linguistics Starting date: 1 April 2005 Expected duration: 4 years (1-year extension possible) Rosetta Stone
Project Goals Development of formalisms and algorithms to support grammar induction for arbitrary languages from parallel corpora To make goals tangible… Intended prototype: The PTOLEMAIOS I system for building grammars for new (sub-)languages
The PTOLEMAIOS I system
Resources required: Parallel corpus of language L and one or (ideally) more other languages No NLP tools for language L required Preparatory work required: Manual annotation of a set of seed sentence pairs (e.g., pairs) Phrasal correspondence across languages "Lean" bracketing: mark only full argument/modifier phrases (PPs, NPs) and full clauses
The PTOLEMAIOS I system
Training steps: (Sentence alignment on parallel corpus) Word alignment on parallel corpus Using standard techniques from Statistical Machine Translation (GIZA++ tool) Part-of-speech clustering for L Bootstrapping learning of syntactic grammars for L and the other language(s) Starting from annotated seed data Exploit large amounts of unannotated data, finding systematic patterns in phrasal correspondences Assuming implicit underlying representation ("pseudo meaning representation") Relying on consensus across the grammars
The PTOLEMAIOS I system
Result: Robust probabilistic grammar for L Representation of predicate-argument and modifier relations Models predict probabilities for cross-linguistic argument/modifier links (These will be particularly useful in lexicalized models) Application: Multilingual Information Extraction, Question Answering Intermediate step for syntax-based MT
Motivation Practical Theoretical
Explore alternative to standard treebank training of grammars For "smaller" languages, it is unrealistic to do the necessary manual resource annotation Theoretical Establish parallel corpora as an empirical basis for (crosslinguistic or monolingual) linguistic studies Frequency-related phenomena (like multi-word expressions/collocations) are otherwise hard to assess empirically at the level of syntax Learnability properties as a criterion for assessing formal models for natural language
Study 1 Unsupervised learning of a probabilistic context-free grammar (PCFG) exploiting partial information from a parallel corpus [Kuhn 2004 (ACL)] Underlying consideration: The distribution of word correspondences in the translation of a string contains partial information about possible phrase boundaries Heute stellt sich die Lage jedoch völlig anders dar The situation now however is radically different
Alignment-induced word blocks
Word alignments obtained with the standard model are asymmetrical [Brown et al. 1993] Each word from language L1 is mapped to a set of words from L2 (For L2-words without an overt correspondent in L1, an artificial word NULL is assumed in each sentence in L1) Definition A word alignment mapping induces a Word block w1...wn in language L1, iff the union over (w1)...(wn) forms a continuous string in L2 [separated only by words from (NULL)] (The)={die} (situation)={Lage} (NULL)={der} L2 Heute ist die Lage in der Türkei anders L1 NULL The situation in Turkey now is different
Word blocks and constituents
Let's call a word block maximal if adding a word to the left or right leads to a non-word block Maximal word blocks are possible constituents – but not necessary ones Conservative formulation: Exclusion of impossible constituents ("distituents") … whenever a word sequence crosses block boundaries … … without fully covering one of the adjacent blocks Wir brauchen bald eine Entscheidung We need a decision soon
Unsupervised Learning
Grammar induction of an X-bar grammar Using a variant of standard PCFG induction with the Inside-Outside algorithm (an Expectation Maximization algorithm) All word spans are considered as phrase candidates – except the excluded distituents Automatic generalization based on patterns in the learning data (after part-of-speech tagging) Exclusion of distituents can reduce the effect of frequent non-phrasal word sequences
Empirical Results Comparative experiment [Kuhn 2004 (ACL)]
A: Grammar induction based on English corpus data only B: Induction including partial information from parallel corpus (Europarl corpus) [Koehn 2002] Statistical word alignment, trained with GIZA++ [Al-Onaizan et al., 1999; Och/Ney, 2003] Exclusion of "distituents" based on alignment-induced word blocks Evaluation: Parsing sentences from the Penn Treebank (Wall Street Journal) with the induced grammars Comparison of the "automatical" analyses with the gold standard treebank analyses created by linguists
Empirical Results Mean of Precision und Recall
# correctly identified phrases # proposed phrases # correctly identified phrases # gold standard phrases
Study 2 Underlying consideration:
It should be possible to learn more complex syntactic generalization from parallel corpora if phrase correspondences can be observed systematically Cross-linguistic "consensus structure" as a poor man's meaning representation (pseudo-meaning representation) Form-meaning relation is important for Optimality Theory-style discriminative learning S XP S XP XP XP XP look must we So agricultural the at policy XP XP XP Wir müssen deshalb die Agrarpolitik prüfen
Parallel Parsing Prerequisites for structural learning from parallel corpora: Grammar formalism generating sentence pairs or tuples (bitexts or multitexts) Generalization of monolingual context-free grammars, generating two or more trees simultaneously (keeping note of phrase correspondences) Algorithms for parsing and learning (Parallel Parsing/Synchronous Parsing) Problem: higher complexity than monolingual parsing Compare theoretical work on machine translation [Wu 1997, Melamed 2004] Focus for this study: Efficient parallel parsing based on a word-alignment [Kuhn 2005 (IJCAI)]
Chart Parsing (review)
In chart parsing for context-free grammars, partial analyses covering the same string under the same category are merged WP covering string position j through m Two possible internal analyses – a single chart entry Internal distinction irrelevant from external point of view WP: j-m Reading 1 XP: j-k YP: k-m WP XP YP WP: j-m Reading 2 ZP: j-n XP: n-m WP ZP XP WP YP XP XP ZP i k n m
Data Structure for Parallel Parsing

"3-D" Parsing policy agricultural the at prüfen look Agrarpolitik must
die deshalb müssen Wir XP S prüfen "3-D" Parsing XP look must we So agricultural the at policy S policy agricultural the at prüfen look Agrarpolitik must die we deshalb müssen So Wir
Assumptions for Parallel Parsing
A particular word alignment is given (or the n best alignments according to a statistical model) Note: Both languages may contain words without a correspondent ("null words") Complete constituents must be continuous in both languages There may however be phrase-internal "discontinuities" soon decision a need We Wir brauchen bald eine Entscheidung
Generalized Earley Parsing
Main idea: One of the languages is the "master language" Choice of master language is arbitrary in principle For efficiency: pick language with more null words Primary index for chart entries according to master language: string span (from-to) Secondary index: Bit vector for word coverage in the secondary language (cp. chart-based generation) Example: Active chart entry for partial constituent 5: soon 4: decision 3: a 2: need PI: 1-3, SI: [01001] 1: We 1:Wir 2:brauchen 3:bald 4:eine 5:Entscheidung
Primary/Secondary Index in Parsing
Combination of chart entries 5: soon 4: decision 3: a 2: need 1: We 1:Wir 2:brauchen 3:bald 4:eine 5:Entscheidung PI: 1-3, SI: [01001] PI: 3-5, SI: [00110] PI: 1-5, SI: [01111]
Illegal as a passive chart entry
Complexity With a given word alignment, the secondary index is fully determined by the primary index unless there are any null words in the secondary language In the absence of null words the worst case parsing complexity is essentially the same as in monolingual parsing The secondary index does not add any free variables to the inference rules for parsing (Bitvector operations are very cheap – ignored here) In the average case the search space is even reduced over monolingual parsing Illegal as a passive chart entry Example: (Incorrect) combination of a chart entry with an incomplete constituent is excluded early PI: 0-1, SI: [10000] 5: soon PI: 1-3, SI: [01001] 4: decision 3: a 2: need PI: 0-3, SI: [11001] 1: We 1:Wir 2:brauchen 3:bald 4:eine 5:Entscheidung
Complexity and Null Words
Null words in the secondary language L2 create possible variations for the secondary index (with a single primary index) However the effect is fairly local thanks to the continuity assumption policy agricultural the at look must we So Wir müssen deshalb die Agrarpolitik prüfen look agricultural the at policy XP 1. PI: 3-3, SI: [0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0] PI: 3-4, SI: [0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0] PI: 3-4, SI: [0,0,0,0,1,1,0,0] 2. PI: 3-3, SI: [0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0] PI: 3-5, SI: [0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1] PI: 3-5, SI: [0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1] 3. PI: 3-3, SI: [0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0] PI: 3-7, SI: [0,0,0,1,0,1,1,1] PI: 3-7, SI: [0,0,0,1,1,1,1,1] look agricultural the at policy XP look agricultural the at policy XP 8: policy 7: agricultural 6: the 5: at 4: look 4: die 5: Agrarpolitik 6: prüfen No passive entry, i.e., can be used only locally
Complexity and Null Words
Variability due to null words increases the worst case complexity depending on the number of null words in L2 n: total number of words in L1 m: number of null words in L2 (note: typically clearly smaller than n) Complexity class for alignment-based parallel parsing (time complexity for non-lexicalized grammars): O(n3m3) For comparison – complexity for general parallel parsing without a fixed alignment: O(n6) [vgl. Wu 1997, Melamed 2004] O(n6) O(n3m3) O(n3)

How to Know When to Change Your Oil: Degradation on the Molecular Level
With all the hype surrounding oil changes, it's difficult to cut through the advertising down to the basic science of an oil change. Well, I'm not affiliated with Castrol, Mobil, Pennzoil, Motorcraft, LucasOil, or any other company that markets petroleum-based products, so I can honestly and fairly evaluate my experiences with oil changes. Since I began driving, I have never utilized someone else's services to change my oil, so I know exactly what brands and what quantity of oil has gone into my engine with each and every change. I have charted exactly how many miles it has been since each oil change (tonight, 25 June 2010, for example, I let it go a little farther than normal at 3,968 miles). I have also marked down the brand and viscosity used with each change and charted the performance of my car by date and corresponding with the correct oil change. I do this all in a vehicle notebook specifically tailored for this purpose. In short, my Honda is a rolling scientific research experiment.
On August 18, 2009, I was ecstatic to receive my current daily driver from my fiancée's father: a 1991 Honda Accord LX (5 speed manual 2.2 liter 4 cylinder engine). It was a completely average car, but you wouldn't know it from the gigantic smile on my face every time I'm in the driver's seat! Before that point, I drove a hulking 2001 Explorer XLT (automatic V8 5.0 liter). The Explorer is a solid, reliable vehicle, but the gas mileage (19 on an average day) began to eat into my wallet. Therefore, I chose to drop the insurance on the Explorer and change to the Accord, which had 258,000 miles on the dashboard when I received it.
The oil in the car at the time was standard motor oil (not synthetic), but I'm unsure of the brand. My fiancée's father charted the fuel efficiency of the vehicle about as closely as I do, and he told me that it got 30 miles per gallon like clockwork. While I was driving on that oil, I got the exact same mileage (from 29.8 to 30.5 mpg). The first few oil changes, I used Motorcraft standard motor oil (10w30 and then 5w30 once I ensured it did not leak). My mileage remained at an even 30 mpg.
In September 2009, I started using a 5w30 Pennzoil synthetic blend (50% motor oil, 50% synthetic, and my mileage immediately went up about 1.5 miles per gallon to just under 32 average. In November, I began using 5w30 Mobil Synthetic oil, and my mileage increased slowly over the next month from 32 to between 34 and 36 miles per gallon, where it has remained since even during the summer months. I have continued to use Mobil since then (even though it is the priciest oil).
I noticed that neither the synthetic blend nor pure synthetic resulted in any degradation in gas mileage over the first 3,500-4,000 miles (I never went further than that on the same oil and typically changed it at around 3,000). I also noticed that the oil still retained much of its original honey color at 3,000 miles. Regular motor oil, however, resulted in mpg that consistently began to degrade around 2,000 miles. I would start with 30.5 or so and end up with 29.5 by the last couple tanks. The color also blackened much quicker.
Gas mileage is the only tool generating hard numbers that I have to evaluate the performance of the oil I used. I have no ability to measure the lubricating quality of the oil, nor do I own a dyno with which I can test horsepower. I will say that when I made the jump from synthetic blend to full synthetic, I swore that I could feel an increase in engine response. Obviously, though, feelings are not scientifically measurable.
What I can say for sure is the following: my gas mileage was at 30 mpg with Motorcraft motor oil, 31.5 with Pennzoil synthetic blend, and 35 and even 35.8 once with full synthetic.
Confounding factor: I was learning to drive a new vehicle with a stick shift; this can account for some variable of change.
Clarifying factor: I drove on highways and cities at about 50/50 each; my mileage, therefore, would not be significantly altered by driving conditions. I also always drove alone during this period.
I noticed that 3,000 oil seemed to be right about the right time to change the motor oil. Repeated 3,000 mile changes with synthetic, however, have resulted in oil that is still similar to the way it came out of the bottle. Tonight, just under 4,000 was too much: the oil was slightly black. If you want to change your oil in a risk-free window, then, stick to changing it every 3,000 to 3,500 miles.
Note: on every synthetic jug I have bought, their is some claim about it being guaranteed for 15,000 miles. Heaven help you if you try to milk that promise for what it's worth, and your engine will suffer the consequences (that, I can guarantee). No kind of oil should ever be taken 15,000 miles. Even if synthetic oil can retain its lubricating properties that long (open for debate), it will be so full of impurities that that ability will be irrelevant. Change it less often than 4,000 miles at your own risk.
Experience: 6 years of driving, details below.
1. 5 years driving with the 2001 Ford Explorer, now with 140,000 miles. No breaking down, no engine problems, no rough running, no overheating, no nothing.
2. 1 year of driving with the 1991 Honda Accord, now with 279,000 miles. Also, no breaking down, no engine problems, no rough running, no overheating, no nothing.
