Page 37 is dated January 5, 1902 another page, January 28, 1902. Two definitions of "mathematics" analyzed: (a) mathematics as the method of drawing necessary conclusions, and (b) mathematics as the study of the hypothetical states of things. Mathematics does not require ethics logic does, however. Preliminary dissection of mathematics into several branches. The important rules, theorems, and demonstrations of dichotomic mathematics. Simplest mathematics is a two-valued system, but even though its subject is limited, it does enter as an element into the other parts of mathematics, and hence is important. In regard to trichotomic mathematics, it is asked, "how is the mathematician to take a step without recognizing the duality of truth and falsity?" Fundamental fact about the number three is its generative potency. Philosophical truth has its origin and rationale in mathematics. A chemical analogy. In one of the alternative sections, there is a lengthy account of CSP's dispute with Sylvester over who should receive credit for discovering the system of nonions.

Hospital Episode Statistics
Hospital Episode Statistics
Hospital Episode Statistics (HES) processes over 125 million admitted patient, outpatient and accident and emergency records each year.
What is HES?
HES is a data warehouse containing details of all admissions, outpatient appointments and A&E attendances at NHS hospitals in England.
This data is collected during a patient's time at hospital and is submitted to allow hospitals to be paid for the care they deliver. HES data is designed to enable secondary use, that is use for non-clinical purposes, of this administrative data.
It is a records-based system that covers all NHS trusts in England, including acute hospitals, primary care trusts and mental health trusts. HES information is stored as a large collection of separate records - one for each period of care - in a secure data warehouse.
We apply a strict statistical disclosure control in accordance with the HES protocol, to all published HES data. This suppresses small numbers to stop people identifying themselves and others, to ensure that patient confidentiality is maintained.
Who is HES for?
HES provides data for a wide range of healthcare analysis for the NHS, government and others including:
- national bodies and regulators
- local commissioning organisations
- provider organisations
- researchers and commercial healthcare bodies
- patients, service users and carers.
What are the benefits of HES?
- monitor trends and patterns in NHS hospital activity
- assess effective delivery of care
- support local service planning
- provide the basis for national indicators of clinical quality
- reveal health trends over time
- inform patient choice
- determine fair access to health care
- develop, monitor and evaluate government policy
- support NHS and parliamentary accountability
Why was HES developed?
HES was originally conceived in 1987 following a report on collection and use of hospital activity information published by a steering group chaired by Dame Edith Körner (1921-2000).
Before 1987, only a 10 per cent sample of admitted patient records were collected nationally. By comparison HES aims to collect a detailed record for each 'episode' of admitted patient care delivered in England, either by NHS hospitals or delivered in the independent sector but commissioned by the NHS.
Admitted patient care data is available for every financial year from 1989-90 onwards. During this period, the mechanisms for collecting the data have changed considerably, often in response to changes in the organisation of the NHS. For example, HES was once initially collated sub-nationally by regional health authorities. In 1996 these bodies were abolished and the NHS-Wide Clearing Service (NWCS) was set up to provide a means of transmitting the records. In 2006 this work was taken over by the Secondary Uses Service, which is run by the Health and Social Care Information Centre and the National Programme for IT.
Initially, data for HES publications was collected annually from provider submissions. After a number of years the frequency of collections increased to quarterly to allow analysis and investigation (these were not published) and a final annual publication was released at the end of the year. HES data is now collected monthly.

User Guide Printing Service - Sony Xperia XA
Sometimes it's helpful to have a physical copy of your device's user guide. With devices becoming ever more complex, understanding the functions available to you and how to use them can ensure you get the most out of your device.
It is also becoming rarer to receive a full paper user guide with your device as standard when purchased brand new, with many companies opting to provide a basic quick start guide and have the full guide available as a file available for download online. A full printed user guide is therefore very handy.
As part of our commitment to customer service this user guide printing service is offered to give you access to a physical copy of your device's user guide. We will print the most up to date official user guide for your device on A4 paper and this can be combined with other items or sold separately.

Password Safe is a free open-source program for storing passwords in the Windows operating system. After filling in the master password the user has access to all account data entered and saved previously. The data can be organized by categories, can be sorted and searched. The key combination Ctrl+C copies the password of a selected account into the clipboard, Ctrl+U copies user ID. The program can be set to minimize automatically after a period of idle time and clears the clipboard. It is possible to compare and synchronize two different password databases.
PasswordSafe Features
- KeePass supports the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and the Twofish algorithms to encrypt its password databases.

Be it at home or at nursery school, both parents and childcare providers struggle to win the infectious disease battle, or at least declare a standoff, through regular use of powerful cleaning and disinfecting agents. While these cleaners may protect your child by defeating the germs, they may also pose potential health risks because of the sometimes toxic ingredients they contain. And while you cannot control the toxins that are common in public facilities, you do have a say in the how you choose to keep your own home clean.
Potential Health Risks of Common Cleaners
Keeping a clean house is a necessary step in providing a safe living environment. Through proper cleaning and disinfection in the kitchen, for example, contact with disease-causing bacteria from raw or undercooked meat, shellfish, fish, and eggs can be reduced. But the products we use to clean the house can also have unintended health consequences.
Some research regarding the health risks of cleaning products has focused on adult janitorial staff working with industrial cleaners in settings outside of the home. This is because they tend to use more powerful and concentrated cleaning products. While household cleaners tend to be more dilute and less potent than their industrial-strength counterparts, many do contain some of the same potentially harmful ingredients. And while both children and adults are susceptible to the consequences of toxic chemical exposure, children are more so because of their smaller size, rapidly growing bodies, and immature immune systems.
Some chemicals that may be a concern include:
- Ammonia
- Aerosol propellants
- Chlorine bleach
- Hydrochloric and other acids
- Isopropyl alcohol
- Paradichlorobenzenes (PDCBs)
- Petroleum distillates
- Phenols
- Trichloroethylene (TCE)
- Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) like:
- Turpentine
- Nitrobenzene
- Toluene
- Methylene
- Chloride
- Formaldehyde
- Ethylene glycol
These compounds can be found in floor and carpet cleaners, degreasers, toilet/tub/tile cleaners, room deodorizers, oven cleaners, furniture polishes and waxes, laundry detergents, and disinfectants.
What You Can Do
The good news is that safer cleaning products are available, and you can also use safer cleaning techniques to protect yourself, your family, even your pets. To start, be sure to read all labels well. Do not assume a green bottle labeled "natural" is toxin-free. Also consider the following pointers to avoid purchasing toxic cleaners:
Consider products with:
- Citrus or plant-based oils: orange and lemon for degreasing, tea tree and eucalyptus for disinfecting, and olive for polishing
- Enzymes to break up drain clogs
- Choose products that list ALL of their ingredients.
- Make your own cleaning products from non-toxic ingredients such as baking soda, club soda, and white vinegar.
- Focus on cleaning; disinfect only when necessary. Good cleaning habits will mean you won't need to disinfect nearly as often.
- Do not use chemical carpet cleaners.
- Use chlorine bleach sparingly. Consider using fragrance-free, non-chlorine bleaches containing hydrogen peroxide instead.
- Choose unscented cleaning products. Sometimes fragrances are added to mask the smell of toxic cleaners. Furthermore, fragrances themselves can trigger allergic reactions and asthma attacks.
- Be wary of concentrated cleaners that advertise safety only when used under certain conditions.
- Avoid cleaners carrying a "danger" or "warning" label.
Manufacturers of cleaning products are required to prepare a Material Safety Data Sheet containing information about a product's health, fire, reactivity, and specific hazards, from a score of 0 (minimum) to 4 (severe) in each category. For household cleaning products, avoid any product with a score higher than 2 in any category. Visit the US Department of Health and Human Services Household Products Database website to find this and other helpful information on common household cleaners.

The best and easiest way to explore the old city is on foot, but to get to other areas there is a cheap public transport network consisting of buses, taxis or dolmuses (shared minibus taxis), tramways and a metro system that has relieved some of the pressure of Istanbul's endless traffic. The rechargeable Akbil electronic transit pass, available from special kiosks, is a discounted way of using local buses, trams, metro and ferries. A useful underground metro line runs from Aksaray to the main city bus station at Esenler and the Ataturk Airport, and another runs north from Taksim Square, passing the Levent districts. Buses are slow and crowded; tickets must be purchased at outdoor kiosks, as bus drivers do not sell them. Dolmuses and private yellow taxis are more comfortable than the city buses and very inexpensive, but it is advisable for foreigners to have their hotel call a private taxi for them and check that the meter is working, as overcharging is common. A taxi's night rate can be up to 50 percent more expensive than the day rate. Dolmuses can be hailed anywhere along their set routes. Passenger ferries are a pleasant way to see the city, and there is also a train network running along the Marmara shore. Driving or hiring a car is not recommended due to traffic congestion and poor driving standards.
GMT +2 (GMT +3 from the last Sunday in March to the last Sunday in October).
220 volts AC, 50Hz. The European two-pin plug is standard.
The official currency is the Turkish Lira (TRY), which is divided into 100 kurus. Currency can be exchanged at banks, exchange booths, post offices, airports and ferry ports; banks have the worst rates but will exchange lesser known foreign currencies. Banks open mainly Monday to Friday, but some are open daily in tourist areas. ATMs are widely available in major cities and tourist areas, but Turkish ATM keypads usually do not have letters of the English alphabet on their keys. Major credit cards are widely accepted; the most popular are Visa or MasterCard, but American Express is also accepted in some areas. Some hotels in the most popular destinations accept US dollars as payment.
The international country dialling code for Turkey is +90. Mobile phone coverage is good with GSM 900 and 1800 networks covering most of the country. Internet cafes are available in the main towns and resorts.
Medical emergencies: 112. Police: 155.
Everything about travel documents
The Istanbul Metro system provides quick and easy access to the city, including the intercity bus terminal. Use metro station Zeytinburnu and transfer to a tram to reach the Eminonu ferry or Sea Bus docks. The airport Havatas Bus leaves from the Departures terminal gate and connects to Taksim Square or Kozyatagi. Shuttle buses depart from 4am to 1am, and take 40 minutes into the city. Taxis are also available. Taxi rates are 50 percent higher between midnight and 6am.
Car rental companies include Avis, Budget, Hertz, Alamo, National and Sixt.
The Istanbul Ataturk Airport is west of Istanbul and it takes around thirty minutes to reach Taksim Square by taxi. Fees depend largely on the destination in Istanbul. Rates are as much as fifty percent higher at night. Passengers should only take metered taxis and insist drivers turn the meter on.
Escalator walkways as well as travelators connect Terminal 1 (domestic flights) to Terminal 2 (international flights). The transfer takes about 10 minutes.
Banks, ATMs and bureaux de change are available. A pharmacy, children's playroom, hairdresser, florist, newsstand and medical services are available. Other facilities include tourist information and hotel reservations, bars, restaurants, duty-free shopping, a conference centre, post office and 24-hour left luggage.
There are both open and roofed car park options available close to the terminal buildings. These both have long and short-term parking options available.
Wireless internet connections are available in the Arrivals, Departures and General Aviation Terminals. This service is free at the lounges of the Arrivals and Departures Terminals. Additional wifi access spots within the terminal are available for a fee.

Developer text retrieval software company dtSearch has announced version 7.73 of its product line with enhanced .NET, C++, and Java API options for dtSearch Engine developers. The new version works by embedding document filters for data parsing, conversion, extraction, and display of retrieved data.
Available with the present release, a new beta version of dtSearch Web with Spider provides HTML5 template enhancements for publishing instantly searchable data to an Internet or Intranet site.
So this product works as an "easy" (they mean no-programming-required) solution for instant and concurrent searching across terabytes of static and dynamic online data, with highlighted hits and dozens of other search options.
The firm's proprietary document filters support a broad range of data types. The document filters cover parsing, indexing, and searching of retrieved full-text and metadata. Support also covers display of metadata and full-text data with highlighted hits. (Typically, dtSearch does this following dtSearch's own automatic, built-in conversion of the data to HTML.) In many cases, the document filters also support integrated image display along with highlighted hits.
According to dtSearch, "The enterprise and developer products can index over a terabyte of text in a single index, spanning multiple directories, emails and attachments, online data, and other databases. The products can create and search any number of indexes. Indexed search time is typically less than a second, even across terabytes of data. The product line also supports highly concurrent, multithreaded searching for online and other shared access repositories."
The dtSearch Engine for Win & .NET and the dtSearch Engine for Linux make available dtSearch instant searching and document filters (both together with searching as well as available for separate licensing) for a wide range of Internet, Intranet, and other commercial applications. SDKs include native 64-bit and 32-bit C++, Java, and .NET (through current versions) APIs.

HP has launched the HP Vertica Marketplace, an online destination for developers to create and share extensions, enhancements, and solutions that integrate with the HP Vertica Analytics Platform.
The HP Vertica Analytics Platform is a component of the HP HAVEn Big Data analytics platform, which works for applications designed to accelerate the monetization of big data.
The add-ons here include connectors and third-party extensions, business intelligence tools, Extract Transform and Load (ETL), and data transformation products, connectors, and tools for HP HAVEn Big Data analytics platform.
VP & GM of Vertica at HP Colin Mahony says that developers can use this offering to get information spanning structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data — through connectors and extensions that store, manage, and analyze big data.
"This includes integration with the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) and HP HAVEn Big Data analytics platform, including the HP Autonomy IDOL platform," he said.
The promise here is a chance for developers to work on big data projects that can get business insights from big data with flexible plug-ins and extensions to integrate and visualize users' data sets, including business intelligence (BI) and data visualization tools and products.
Featured here is HP Vertica Pulse, which helps leverage an in-database sentiment analysis tool that scores short data posts, including social data, such as Twitter feeds or product reviews, to gauge the most popular topics of interest, analyze how sentiment changes over time, and identify advocates and detractors.
"HP Vertica Marketplace members also will gain access to the innovations from HP Vertica through its incubation program. These new technologies and solutions will be available for developers to evaluate and provide feedback, helping guide future development," said the company.

Baba Ghanouj
Baba ghanouj is a Middle Eastern eggplant spread whose recipe usually calls for olive oil and tahini (ground sesame seed paste).
Both ingredients make it creamy and are rich in "healthful" fats, says Dana Jacobi, author of the 12 Best Foods Cookbook and a contributor to the American Institute for Cancer Research's New American Plate Cookbook: Recipes for a Healthy Weight and a Healthy Life. But "using them liberally increases the calories," she says, "and no matter how good those fats may be, calories do count—especially in our overweight society.
"Traditional eggplant spread presents problems in the preparation, as well," she continues. "For example, exposing the eggplant to flame adds lovely smoky flavor that can help compensate for reducing the amount of oil used. But this method messes up the stove when a gas burner is used, and after grilling eggplant, getting the skin off can be a tedious task that takes time. The time-pressed home cook will look for that smoky flavor in baba ghanouj when eating out and deploy other strategies to make a delicious spread."
The following low-fat recipe offers a simple solution: Bake the eggplant, and use fresh ingredients from your natural and organic food store to impart intense flavors.
Baba Ghanouj
Makes about 2½ cups
1 medium eggplant (about 1 lb.)
1 small onion, cut into quarters
1 to 2 large cloves garlic (or to taste), finely minced
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
- Heat the oven to 400°F.
- With a fork, pierce eggplant in 3 or 4 places. Place on a rack set in a baking sheet. Bake about 40 minutes or until soft. Set aside to cool. Peel eggplant and cut into cubes.
- Place eggplant, onion, garlic, lemon juice, oil, salt and pepper in a food processor or blender. Cover and purée until smooth, stopping to scrape down sides of container, if necessary. Check seasoning and add more salt to taste, if desired. Drain excess liquid and spoon mixture into a bowl.
- Garnish with parsley.
- Serve with whole-grain pita bread wedges.

Crime Stoppers seeks dangerous felon
Police are asking the community's help in finding the whereabouts of David Dewayne Disomba, a 21-year-old Port Arthur man wanted for Aggravated Robbery, Aggravated Kidnapping and Evading Arrest, among other charges.
Disomba is a 5'11 African American male and is 211 pounds, according to a BPD press release.
Disomba is also a person of interest in a shooting at the Rampart Apartments in Port Arthur and should be considered armed and dangerous, said Street Crimes Investigator Marcelo "Mo" Molfino.
"We need to get 'em before he kills somebody," Molfino said.
With all leads exhausted from Disomba's family and friends, Molfino said he needs the community to help apprehend the fugitive before he commits more violent crimes.
"When people commit these crimes, when they're on the run and know they're a fugitive, they become desperate and one crime usually facilitates another crime when money is an issue," he said.
"When you know you've got one that don't care and they're violent, you just don't want to see anyone else get hurt."
Molfino said a crime stoppers reward of $1,000 is being offered to anyone with information on Disomba's whereabouts, but more may be available to an anonymous tipster.
"We're working with other (law enforcement) entities to see if we can actually get more reward money available," he said.
If you know where police can locate Disomba, contact Beaumont Crime Stoppers at (409) 833-TIPS.

Personalized guns touted as safety check
(03-03) 07:32 PST SAN FRANCISCO -- In the latest James Bond movie, the hero is given a gun that recognizes the palm of his hand. Later, when a bad guy snatches the pistol away in a tussle, it won't fire, and Agent 007 lives to die another day.
It may have felt like Hollywood fantasy, but the basic premise is very real - and very dear - to some lawmakers and gun control advocates.
They believe that in the age of smartphones and the aftermath of December's elementary school massacre in Connecticut, the time has come for a marriage of firearms - which have changed little for decades - and modern technology that allows all sorts of devices to be personalized to their user.
President Obama, in the anti-gun-violence plan he introduced in January, directed the attorney general to issue a report on "existing and emerging gun safety technologies." He also promised prizes to companies that develop the smart guns.
Sensing momentum, state Sen. Mark DeSaulnier, D-Concord, introduced legislation last month that would require all handguns sold in the state to be "owner-authorized."
Under the bill, which is similar to one New Jersey passed in 2002, standard guns would become illegal for sale 18 months after the state Department of Justice determines personalized guns are readily available and function well.
The idea is that a gun should be useless if picked up by a child or a suicidal teen or stolen in a burglary. The weapons would feature biometric technology such as fingerprint or grip recognition, or radio-frequency identification, which is used in employee-access badges and the toll-collection system FasTrak.
Technology could be near
The guns could be used only by their owner, who in some cases would have to wear a special watch or ring to be able to fire the weapon. The firearms could be configured to allow for multiple users, such as family members.
Skeptics of the technology point out that, despite years of research and high hopes, such guns are still not available in the United States. But that may be changing.
Belinda Padilla, the head of U.S. sales for a German company called Armatix, said the firm plans to sell a .22-caliber pistol in the United States by this summer that works only after its user activates it by entering a five-digit code into a wristwatch. The watch uses radio waves to communicate with the gun.
"The bottom line is, this exists now," said Stephen Teret, founder of the Center for Gun Policy and Research at Johns Hopkins University, who has followed the progress of personalized guns for years. "The question isn't one of technological feasibility anymore, but one of policy."
No one doubts the tough politics around personalized guns, which have been studied and debated for more than two decades.
Many gun owners oppose them, saying they fear the technology will fail them in a pinch. A major gun control group, the Violence Policy Center in Washington, D.C., also opposes the idea, arguing that personalized technology would save few lives, distract from more important efforts, and give a false impression that guns are safe, perhaps driving new sales.
Reliability questioned
Brandon Combs, who heads the Calguns Foundation, a gun rights organization, said personalized guns aren't close to being marketable or reliable. Even if they were, he said, a law mandating their sale would make guns much more expensive and difficult to use, infringing upon the constitutional right to bear arms.
"We're creating laws now for a possible future that may or may not ever come to fruition, and to me that's silly," Combs said. "The reality is this would do nothing but create another opportunity for California to ban handguns and make them expensive for people."
Proponents of personalized guns say it's not clear whether such weapons could have prevented Adam Lanza from killing 27 people in Newtown, Conn., in December. Although the weapons he used were owned by his mother, she reportedly took him to shooting ranges and could have given him access to her guns if they were personalized.
But advocates say they would expect the technology to save some of the more than 30,000 people who die from gunfire in the United States each year.
Government figures show firearm accidents killed 851 people in 2011. Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of guns are taken each year in burglaries, which are one of the prime sources of weapons used in murders and other crimes.
The promise of personalized guns has always driven the debate over them. In 2000, a year after the Columbine High School massacre, President Bill Clinton pushed hard for the guns, doling out research grants to two gunmakers.
A report the next year by Sandia National Laboratories concluded that "multiple years of dedicated research and development" were needed before a police officer could rely on a personalized gun.
To Teret, of Johns Hopkins, technology has not been the only obstacle. Gun companies that pursued personalized weapons - either in a bid for government grants or in response to pressure from consumer lawsuits - were criticized and even boycotted by gun rights groups, he said.
"Some gun companies tried to pursue this," Teret said, "and were punished severely."
'Consumer protection'
A spokesman for an organization that represents the firearms and ammunition industry denied that assertion, saying any gunmaker that was able to hit the market first with a personalized weapon would enjoy a distinct advantage.
"However, the feeling on the part of manufacturers is that the technology is not yet mature," said Mike Bazinet, spokesman for the National Shooting Sports Foundation in Connecticut.
DeSaulnier, whose father committed suicide 24 years ago with a gun of unknown origin, has been pushing the issue for more than seven years. He tried to pass similar bills as an assemblyman in 2006 and as a senator in 2008.
"If I'm a law-abiding gun owner, why wouldn't I agree to this?" said DeSaulnier, who does not own a firearm. "Nobody can use (a personalized gun) but myself and the people I authorize to use it. If someone steals it, I don't have to worry about it getting in the wrong hands. ... It's more of a consumer protection device."
Choice for owners
Combs, of the Calguns Foundation, said his concern is not that the guns will be available, but that people will be forced to buy them.
"For the same reason we are fighting to keep AR-15s available as a self-defense weapon," he said of the popular semiautomatic rifles, "we would fight to protect new technologies such as an owner-authorized handgun, as long as it was available as a choice and not a mandate. Choice is important. These are personal decisions at the end of the day."
But Garen Wintemute, a physician who directs the UC Davis Violence Prevention Research Program, said the nation's experience with seat belts in cars, which were once voluntary, shows that personalized guns would have to be required to make a difference.
"Seat belt usage was lower for high-risk groups - teens, drunks and the elderly - who needed it the most," he said. "It often is the case that people who are in high-risk groups are the least likely to take volunteer action to protect themselves. This is one of the reasons they're in the high-risk group to begin with."

- Abolishes laws that allow the IRS to hire private companies for the purpose of collecting taxes (Sec. 2[a]).
- Provides that contracts made before July 18, 2007 may be retained, but cannot be renewed (Sec. 2[c]).
- Moves the enactment date of the requirement that all levels of government withhold 3% of the payment of all contracts from January 1, 2010 to Jan 1, 2011 (Sec. 3).
- Establishes that all property of an expatriate, with the exceptions of deferred compensation items, specified tax deferred accounts, and interest in a nongrantor trust, will be treated as having been sold on the day before the expatriation for its fair market value with any gain exceeding $600,000 classified as taxable income (Sec. 5 [a]).
- Permits a deferment of this tax until the due date of the tax return if adequate security is provided (Sec. 5 [a]).
- Provides that the payer of certain deferred compensation items to expatriates withhold 30 percent of the payment for tax purposes (Sec. 5 [a]).
- Provides that 30 percent of the payment of nongrantor trusts to expatriates be withheld for tax purposes (Sec. 5 [a]).
- Imposes a tax on gifts or bequests received by a United States citizen or resident from an expatriate, applicable to the extent that the gift or bequest exceeds $10,000 (Sec. 5 [b]).
- Repeals a period of suspension of interest and penalties for taxpayers who have underpaid their taxes but have not been notified of their underpayment by the IRS (Sec. 6).
- Increases penalties for failing to file correct tax information returns (Sec. 7).

On May 7, the Butler Eagle printed a letter written by Susan W. Trufley of Franklin Township that attacked me by regurgitating comments found in an anonymous student blog that "rates" professors at Slippery Rock University.
That discredited website carries no validity in evaluating academic faculty; it can't even verify that those anonymous individuals commenting are students.
Nonetheless, Trufley submitted a similar letter earlier this year with the same accusations. By now, she is becoming a broken record, constantly attacking me falsely by referencing anonymous hearsay.
For the record, I have been teaching at SRU for 10 years. I've had no complaints from students.
If people like Trufley want to attack me because of my criticism of elected officials, such as Butler County Commissioner Jim Eckstein, they are free to do so. However, their attacks should be aimed at my political stances or advocacy of county issues, instead of making baseless, libelous accusations that I am "anti-white," and other untrue hearsay.
Trufley's letter criticized the fact that Steven Hively and I had written a letter to the editor that was printed in the May 2 edition of the Butler Eagle. Our letter complained about Eckstein dragging our names into his defamation lawsuit during an April commissioners meeting. In that letter, we alleged witness tampering and intimidation by Eckstein as he verbally discredited our credibility for allegedly being the "main witnesses" for Commissioner Dale Pinkerton.
Furthermore, during the commissioners' May 8 meeting, it was Eckstein's lawyer who engaged with impunity in blatant witness tampering, criticizing our same letter with disparaging comments, again at a public meeting.
During this commissioners forum, Hively stated publicly that he wasn't going to be a main witness, as Eckstein had proclaimed — not for Pinkerton, Eckstein or anyone else — in any future trial. And, for the record, I don't plan to be one either. We don't care to be dragged into personal litigation between two private individuals who happen to be fellow public officials.
As to Eckstein, I criticize him for skipping a salary board meeting scheduled for 10 a.m.; for missing two days of work to attend a four-hour training session in human resources, reserved for county staff; and for babbling ad nauseam during meetings.
Eckstein is a guy who doesn't know when to keep his mouth shut.
Finally, I don't just critique Eckstein. I also went after Pinkerton and Commissioner Bill McCarrier for voting to cut in half the public's right to speak during meetings, in order to avoid listening to more criticism of their proposed new office annex — one that the two commissioners are trying to ram down county taxpayers' throats.
At that meeting, the entire board of commissioners — including Eckstein — voted to hire a construction manager for an office project that they keep claiming publicly "hasn't even been decided yet."
Any new construction will definitely raise our taxes, and taxes will go up further when the county hires more employees to fill the new building.
Instead of listening to our concerns, the commissioners have decided to silence the public by limiting speaking time.
What a shame!

Spark plugs in the Ford F-150 can be very difficult to remove.
Ford has issued a service bulletin (08-7-6) to address this issue, which includes a recommended procedure on how to remove the plugs. Failure to follow the recommended procedure can result in the one or more spark plugs breaking off in the cylinder head.
The recommend procedure is as follows. Using this procedure will greatly reduce the chance of breaking a spark plug.
1. Break the spark plugs loose when the engine is warm.
2. Turn each plug 1/8 to 1/4 turn and soak the treads with 1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon of Motorcraft Carburetor Tune-Up Cleaner or a quality penetrating oil. Do not try to remove the plugs at this time.
3. Let the threads soak for at least 15 minutes.
4. After the soak period, tighten and loosen each spark plug, working it back and forth until the turning effort is reduced. Then, you can remove the spark plug.
There are special tools available to remove the broken spark plugs and repair shops will often charge additional labor for the removal of each broken spark plug.

The Nokia Lumia 920 - Coming Sunday, November 4th
Recently Windows Phone Central went on record that AT&T's plans for the Lumia 920 (and presumably other Windows Phones) was to have an in-store sale date of Sunday, November 4th. We now have had another confirmation via a well placed source in AT&T that this is information is accurate.
We also previously mentioned that on October 21st AT&T is planning to finally announce the above release date and the pricing of the Lumia 920. That info is also still precise.
Presumably a pre-order date will follow on that Friday the 26th, giving just over one week time before the phone can be bought in stores. Much like the Lumia 900 release, we assume that if you pre-order, you will get the phone on Friday, November 2nd before residential deliveries stop for the weekend.
Since we ran our story, Microsoft had sent out invitations to the media for its official Windows Phone 8 launch. That will occur on Monday, October 29th in San Francisco and it is expected Microsoft will finally show all of the OS, announce new features and display all of the new hardware that it will be running on.
With all of those dates, we can see a nice run up to announcing Windows Phone 8:
- October 4th – AT&T formally announces the Lumia 920
- October 4th – Microsoft sends out press invites for SF
- October 21st – AT&T announce pricing and availability of the 920
- October 26th – Possible pre-order for the Lumia 920
- October 29th – Microsoft announces Windows Phone 8
- November 4th – In store sales of the Lumia 920 begin
From our view, all of that makes sense for a build-up campaign for launching Windows Phone 8 and the Lumia 920.
Unfortunately we do not have word on pricing as of yet.

Major Section: MISCELLANEOUS
See rule-classes for a discussion of the syntax of the
:loop-stopper field of
rewrite rule-classes. Here we describe how
that field is used, and also how that field is created when the user
does not explicitly supply it.
For example, the built-in
rewrite rule
(implies (and (acl2-numberp x) (acl2-numberp y)) (equal (+ x y) (+ y x))),creates a rewrite rule with a loop-stopper of
((x y binary-+)).
This means, very roughly, that the term corresponding to
y must be
``smaller'' than the term corresponding to
x in order for this rule
to apply. However, the presence of
binary-+ in the list means that
certain functions that are ``invisible'' with respect to
(by default,
unary-- is the only such function) are more or less
ignored when making this ``smaller'' test. We are much more precise
Our explanation of loop-stopping is in four parts. First we discuss
ACL2's notion of ``term order.'' Next, we bring in the notion of
``invisibility'', and use it together with term order to define
orderings on terms that are used in the loop-stopping algorithm.
Third, we describe that algorithm. These topics all assume that we
have in hand the
:loop-stopper field of a given rewrite rule; the
fourth and final topic describes how that field is calculated when
it is not supplied by the user.
ACL2 must sometimes decide which of two terms is syntactically
simpler. It uses a total ordering on terms, called the ``term
order.'' Under this ordering constants such as
'(a b c) are simpler
than terms containing variables such as
x and
(+ 1 x). Terms
containing variables are ordered according to how many occurrences
of variables there are. Thus
x and
(+ 1 x) are both simpler than
(cons x x) and
(+ x y). If variable counts do not decide the order,
then the number of function applications are tried. Thus
(cons x x)
is simpler than
(+ x (+ 1 y)) because the latter has one more
function application. Finally, if the number of function
applications do not decide the order, a lexicographic ordering on
Lisp objects is used. See term-order for details.
When the loop-stopping algorithm is controlling the use of
rewrite rules it allows
term1 to be moved leftward over
term2 only if
term1 is smaller, in a suitable sense. Note: The
sense used in loop-stopping is not the above explained term order
but a more complicated ordering described below. The use of a total
ordering stops rules like commutativity from looping indefinitely
because it allows
(+ b a) to be permuted to
(+ a b) but not vice
versa, assuming
a is smaller than
b in the ordering. Given a set of
permutative rules that allows arbitrary permutations of the tips of
a tree of function calls, this will normalize the tree so that the
smallest argument is leftmost and the arguments ascend in the order
toward the right. Thus, for example, if the same argument appears
twice in the tree, as
x does in the
binary-+ tree denoted by the
(+ a x b x), then when the allowed permutations are done, all
occurrences of the duplicated argument in the tree will be adjacent,
e.g., the tree above will be normalized to
(+ a b x x).
Suppose the loop-stopping algorithm used term order, as noted above,
and consider the
binary-+ tree denoted by
(+ x y (- x)). The
arguments here are in ascending term order already. Thus, no
permutative rules are applied. But because we are inside a
+-expression it is very convenient if
x and
(- x) could be given
virtually the same position in the ordering so that
y is not
allowed to separate them. This would allow such rules as
(+ i (- i) j) = j to be applied. In support of this, the
ordering used in the control of permutative rules allows certain
unary functions, e.g., the unary minus function above, to be
``invisible'' with respect to certain ``surrounding'' functions,
+ function above.
Briefly, a unary function symbol
fn1 is invisible with respect to a
function symbol
fn2 if
fn2 belongs to the value of
fn1 in
invisible-fns-table; also see set-invisible-fns-table, which
explains its format and how it can be set by the user. Roughly
speaking, ``invisible'' function symbols are ignored for the
purposes of the term-order test.
Consider the example above,
(+ x y (- x)). The translated version
of this term is
(binary-+ x (binary-+ y (unary-- x))). The initial
invisible-fns-table makes
unary-- invisible with repect to
The commutativity rule for
binary-+ will attempt to swap
y and
(unary-- x) and the loop-stopping algorithm is called to approve or
disapprove. If term order is used, the swap will be disapproved.
But term order is not used. While the loop-stopping algorithm is
permuting arguments inside a
binary-+ expression,
unary-- is
invisible. Thus, insted of comparing
y with
(unary-- x), the
loop-stopping algorithm compares
y with
x, approving the swap
x comes before
Here is a more precise specification of the total order used for
loop-stopping with respect to a list,
fns, of functions that are to
be considered invisible. Let
x and
y be distinct terms; we specify
when ``
x is smaller than
y with respect to
fns.'' If
x is the
application of a unary function symbol that belongs to
fns, replace
x by its argument. Repeat this process until the result is not the
application of such a function; let us call the result
Similarly obtain
y-guts from
y. Now if
x-guts is the same term as
y-guts, then
x is smaller than
y in this order iff
x is smaller than
y in the standard term order. On the other hand, if
x-guts is
different than
y-guts, then
x is smaller than
y in this order iff
x-guts is smaller than
y-guts in the standard term order.
Now we may describe the loop-stopping algorithm. Consider a rewrite
rule with conclusion
(equiv lhs rhs) that applies to a term
x in a
given context; see rewrite. Suppose that this rewrite rule has
a loop-stopper field (technically, the
:heuristic-info field) of
((x1 y1 . fns-1) ... (xn yn . fns-n)). (Note that this field can be
observed by using the command
pr with the name of the rule;
see pr.) We describe when rewriting is permitted. The
simplest case is when the loop-stopper list is
nil (i.e.,
n is
in that case, rewriting is permitted. Otherwise, for each
i from 1
n let
xi' be the actual term corresponding to the variable
lhs is matched against the term to be rewritten, and similarly
yi' with
y. If
xi' and
yi' are the same term for all
then rewriting is not permitted. Otherwise, let
k be the least
such that
xi' and
yi' are distinct. Let
fns be the list of all
functions that are invisible with respect to every function in
fns-k, if
fns-k is non-empty; otherwise, let
fns be
nil. Then
rewriting is permitted if and only if
yi' is smaller than
xi' with
respect to
fns, in the sense defined in the preceding paragraph.
It remains only to describe how the loop-stopper field is calculated
for a rewrite rule when this field is not supplied by the user. (On
the other hand, to see how the user may specify the
see rule-classes.) Suppose the conclusion of the rule is of
the form
(equiv lhs rhs). First of all, if
rhs is not an instance
of the left hand side by a substitution whose range is a list of
distinct variables, then the loop-stopper field is
nil. Otherwise,
consider all pairs
(u . v) from this substitution with the property
that the first occurrence of
v appears in front of the first
occurrence of
u in the print representation of
rhs. For each such
v, form a list
fns of all functions
fn in
lhs with the property
u or
v (or both) appears as a top-level argument of a subterm
lhs with function symbol
fn. Then the loop-stopper for this
rewrite rule is a list of all lists
(u v . fns).

Warning: We're just going to say that Windows Phone 7.5 Tango is not that big of a deal. It's a tiny update with a few MMS enhancements and some minor tweaks (most of which are undocumented, but see our hands on video to get an idea). So we're not sure that trying to manually update your Windows Phone with Tango 8773.98 is a high priority. Nor is the risk of damaging your phone and blocking the upcoming 7.8 update.
And let's be honest, a lot of "fixes" and "tweaks" for your Windows Phone will come from the OEM firmware which this does not provide. Finally, this does not provide the new Start screen. That's Windows Phone 7.8 this is still 7.5.
Having said that, user bobzero on the XDA Forums has posted the Tango OS cab files direct from Microsoft and the needed language files to get the update started. It will break inter-op unlock (for the tiny few of you who have that) but you can go through the process again re-enable it.
The big question for many of you will be How do I do this? It's not Android-custom ROM hard, but it does require a little prep work and some careful reading.
Luckily for you we wrote a nice little tutorial on how to manually update your phone to 8107 to get the much needed "disappearing keyboard fix". That same process should work here so long as you replace the 8107 CAB with the 8773 one, obviously. Likewise, you'll need the language packs too which bobzero has given you.
We haven't done this yet ourselves but we do have our trusty Samsung Focus 2 and a bottle of Wild Turkey that says we're going to try it soon.
As usual, sound off in comments on your experience and please, don't blame us if you damage your phone. Remember: read, ask questions and take your time. And if you're on OS 8107 you need to go to 8112 first.
