Note: College chaplaincies/Campus Ministers are discussed in the Higher Education section, and school chaplaincies are in the K-12 section.
Military Chaplaincy
The process of being called to a position as a military chaplain is (as you would guess) fairly precise. Most individuals begin this process while still in theological school and participate in simultaneous ordination and military chaplaincy processes. There are age and physical health restrictions in place for each branch. Students interested in this field should make inquiry into the training programs as soon as possible. (Additional print materials are kept in the Office of Career Services).
Prison Chaplaincy
Formal prison chaplaincy (with the bureau of prisons) requires specific coursework within the M.Div. (see the board of pensions page for more information) two years of experience, and ordination or membership in a vowed community.
Denominations frequently support their own chaplaincies within specific prisons, sometimes as stand alone ministries and sometimes as part of a particular congregation. These positions are hired from within denominational systems and may have their own set of requirements.
Prison Chaplain Position Descriptions
Healthcare Chaplaincy
The first step for each of these programs is CPE credentials. Typically the first unit of CPE is earned while in the M.Div. and an additional three to four units are garnered in a full-time residency after graduation.

San Diego Seafood StewElisa Bosley | Delicious Living
- Serves: 6 people
- Calories per serving: 455
Chef Jason Knibb of Nine-Ten restaurant in La Jolla, California, created this mélange of local fish, which combine for a delicious, bread-dipping stew. Berbere is a classic Ethiopian seasoning of garlic, red pepper, cardamom, coriander, and other spices; look for it in specialty shops, or substitute a blend of paprika, garlic, and cayenne pepper. Look for fish stock in the refrigerated or frozen section of natural markets or packaged in shelf-stable boxes; or make Knibb's homemade Shrimp Stock. For a shortcut version of the reduced stock in step 1, substitute a tablespoon of low-sodium, bottled Asian fish sauce.
- Make shrimp aioli: Gently boil 2 cups shrimp or fish stock until reduced to 2 tablespoons and slightly thickened. Remove from pan and cool. Once cool, add to a food processor with egg yolk, garlic, lemon juice, and vinegar. With motor running, add olive oil and process until emulsified. Salt to taste. Refrigerate.
- Cut baguette diagonally into ¼-inch slices. Toast lightly; set aside.
- Shave fennel on a mandolin about 1/ 8 inch thick. Toss with a little olive oil and reserve in refrigerator until serving time.
- On a baking sheet, arrange tuna, shrimp, and calamari, and season with salt and pepper. Coat a large, deep sauté pan over high heat with olive oil. Pan-sear tuna cubes 5 seconds on all sides; remove from pan to a paper-towel-lined tray. In same pan, sear shrimp and calamari for 1 minute; remove to tray with tuna. In same pan, add chorizo and stir to crumble. Remove. Add cod and bass or halibut; pan-sear. Deglaze pan with 3 cups shrimp or fish stock, and then simmer until cod and bass are tender and done, about 3 minutes. Return seared tuna, shrimp, calamari, and chorizo back into pan and simmer for 2–3 minutes. Add berbere and salt to taste.
- Divide stew into bowls and sprinkle with fennel, parsley, and more berbere spice if desired. Place one piece of bread and 1 tablespoon shrimp aioli on top. Serve immediately.

The governments of Niger and Burkina Faso say they are not giving refuge to the deposed Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi. The former leader's whereabouts are unknown as Libya's interim leaders say they are determined to bring him to justice.
Speculation about Mr. Gadhafi's exit route has focused on Niger, where several members of his government, including his security chief, arrived by convoy earlier this week.
But Niger's Justice Minister Marou Amadou says Mr. Gadhafi is not in the country and, as a former head of state, will not enter Niger incognito. Amadou told reporters that if the former Libyan leader asks to come to Niger, the government in Niamey will notify the international community of its decision.
Burkina Faso offered Mr. Gadhafi asylum two weeks ago, but a government spokesman Tuesday withdrew that offer. President Blaise Compaore says the former Libyan leader is not in Burkina Faso.
President Compaore says his government has no information about the presence of any Libyans on Burkinabe territory. He says neither Mr. Gadhafi nor any members of his family have sought asylum in Burkina Faso.
Burkina Faso and Niger have both recognized Libya's interim National Transitional Council as the new government in Tripoli.
But Mr. Gadhafi remains popular in much of the Sahelian region south of Libya where he has invested millions of dollars in public and private projects and has close ties to Tuareg nomads from Niger and Mali, some of whom are part of his security detail.

UPDATE: TMZ is now reporting that Andre Johnson's penis could not be saved by doctors at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.TMZ and the New York Daily News are both reporting that "a rapper affiliated with Wu-Tang Clan" cut off his penis and jumped off a second story balcony this morning in North Hollywood, Calif.
Police officers found Christ Bearer (aka Andre Johnson) "on the sidewalk, critically injured" around 1 a.m. They told TMZ they believe he was attempting suicide.
Johnson is a member of the rap group Northstar, which was founded by members of Wu-Tang Clan.
However, Wu-Tang's official Facebook page posted a photo of Johnson with the words "Not Affiliated" over his face. The image has since been removed.
Two fellow members of Northstar, who live in the same apartment building as Johnson, and TMZ they were there early this morning when their colleague -- without warning -- cut off his penis and jumped off the balcony.
They added that he was not on "any hard drugs that would cause him to do such a thing."
Johnson was taken by ambulance to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. No word on if doctor's are attempting to reattach the organ.
Billboard dubs Northstar as "a relatively unheralded group—affiliated with New York's iconic collective the Wu-Tang Clan—that made most of their noise in the early 2000s, when Wu-member and chief producer RZA functioned as their champion by producing the bulk of their debut album 'Bobby Digital Presents Northstar' in 2004."

Why I Will Never, Ever, EVER Get a Tattoo
Would I have to start planning outfits around the tattoo like I plan for weather?
I love drinking -- I've gotten really good at it over the years, and like to keep my mad drinking skills up with lots of practice -- I'm like an athlete in many ways. I've also discovered that there are certain things that I do so much better when I've had a couple of drinks.
This was originally meant to be a fun piece about my amazing drunken ability to speak French when hammered (which Phoebe and I came up with ... in the pub), but quickly descended into a sad little list of all my bad drunken behaviour. I'm almost tempted to go onto Facebook now and ask 300 of my nearest and dearest friends "Am I an alcoholic?" but I'm worried that I'll get a resounding yes from everyone. Or worse, a total tumbleweed lack of response -- the sound of 300 people looking in the opposite direction.
By Emily's reckoning I'm not there yet -- but maybe you need to add "If every other pic of you on Facebook involves you holding a drink that's bigger than your head" to the list.
Hmmm, I suspect there's another post in that. In the meantime, ta da! The 8 things I'm really, really, really good at, but only when I'm drunk:
A teeny bottle of Sauvignon Blanc. Or Mensa Brain Juice, as I like to call it.
1. Speaking FrenchI used to speak fairly OK French when I was at school, but I've since forgotten almost of all of it. Until I've had a couple of glasses of Pernod, that is. I once spoke to a French girl I met at a house party in a fairly decent approximation of her mother tongue for 10 minutes straight. She told me I had an excellent accent and sounded like I came from La Rochelle. I have no idea what I said. But, my French textbooks at school -- Tricolore, did anyone else use those? were set in La Rochelle, so I guess that, (and all the Pinot Noir), explains that.
2. FlirtI can't flirt in real life. I can grin inanely at someone, or be rude, but I've never really mastered art of coyly flirting with someone I actually fancy without going bright red. Unless I'm drunk that is, at which point I turn into Paula Yates that time she interviewed Michael Hutchence on Big Breakfast. But not as subtle.
I can only assume I had a REALLY IMPORTANT French test that day
3. DanceMy old boss once introduced me to a client with, "This is Rebecca, she's a lovely girl, but she's only got one dance move." Technically this is true, but boy do I know how to use it. Strangely enough, I'm only comfortable showing off my mad dance skillz when I'm on my fourth drink of the night, which is a shame, because they really are a sight to behold.
4. WriteOK, there's a massive caveat on this one -- I can write really well up to and including my second glass of wine. After that it gets a bit ... rambly. In fact, I'm really struggling to write this feature, which might be down to the fact that I haven't had a drink today. Hang on, that's better. Alcohol in moderation definitely gets the creative juices going when I'm feeling a bit uninspired. I try and avoid getting hammered in the office at 10 o'clock on a Monday morning though, that's not cool.
The flipside to this is that about three hours into a hangover I get a sort of razor sharp focus that I can only recreate in moments of extreme panic. When Jane (and Charlotte!) came to see us in the London office, I totally disregarded the fact that my boss was in town and had a massive night out before her last day -- the sorry evidence of which can be found here (sorry Jane!) [No prob, honey. --Jane]. However, I also produced a huge amount of work that afternoon -- fuelled by a winning combination of panic and guilt.
5. Tell jokesI hate it when people (often women) claim that women generally have no comic timing. I have loads, but only when I'm three sheets to the wind. When sober I get too self-conscious, forget the punchline and start stuttering. Get a few drinks down me and it's like a Morecambe and Wise Christmas special. Thinking about it, I'm probably quite an annoying drunk.
In preparation for the Dance Like Beyonce World Championship finals. Athlete.
6. Have awkward conversations Yep, I'm that person. There's nothing I love more when I'm drunk than passive aggressively bringing up That Thing that's been bugging me for weeks, and I've been silently seething over. Cue insane rambling from me about something you didn't even realise was An Issue, and possibly some screaming and plate smashing from me, depending on a very exact combination of rage and booze. If I had the time and a more than rudimentary knowledge of excel, I'd try and work out the exact formula for you. So you know when to run in the opposite direction.
7. Lose my phoneSomeone else suggested this one, and although I initially denied it, I've realised that it's true, I'm exceptionally good and losing my phone when I'm drunk. In fact, there was a period of time where I couldn't go to the pub at the end of my road for a quick gin on the way to work (ha!) without leaving my phone in there. Given that I love my phone and use it for everything, this is always a MASSIVE palaver. In fact, when Jane came to see us (yay!), I'm pretty sure she tried to call me to double check the office door number, but guess what? I'd lost my phone. Again.
8. Having an opinionSometimes I can be really opinionated on a certain topic. Other times ... I just don't care. I always feel faintly guilty about this, because we're talking about things I'm SUPPOSED to care about -- architecture, the environment, recycling. However, a couple of drinks in, my habitual apathy is overtaken with a fiery passion for, pretty much everything. A trip to the pub can often result in me agreeing to do a fun run, replacing all the light bulbs in my flat with energy efficient ones and signing up to a foreign language course I'll never do, because suddenly, I care so passionately about EVERYTHING. The next morning's hangover normally leads to a total volte face on all of the above, except the lightbulbs, because I can't be effed to get the ladder out again.
Plus: here's some things I think I do better when I'm drunk but am almost definitely worse at:Conveying my point of view without shoutingWaxing my legs and/or bikini lineApplying fake tanSex
Is it time to call it quits and become that really cool person at parties who's having loads of fun at parties without drinking? I've started trying hypnotherapy to cure binge drinking, but I've only done one tape so far and I've developed an unhealthy obsession with sparkling water, to go alongside my gin obsession.

Random Thoughts from 6 months in
6 months now in CA. Does the name Mr. Mississippi still apply? Today I move from the room I was renting in Huntington Beach to a room in Westminster. I always get philosophical on move days, they represent a certain type of paradigm shift. I'm now into co-leading my second teacher training and I have been teaching a lot the last month or so. Lost my car in a crash so I bike everywhere now. Noel's in Eau Claire for the 4 months or so. She doesn't have a job right now so we are pretty broke. It's interesting living genuinely close to the ground. I've worked on some Eddie Entropy music with Nick, that's been fun. Listening to Japanese thick psychedelic rock from the 70s right now. It is strange seeing all your possessions in one small corner of a garage. God is everywhere and I'm really into it right now. The living of life as the supreme manifestation of life. This space is rather hidden all things given so it's like my private little freak-out zone, kind of cool really. I have a private livejournal too but I like the idea of this blog being hidden in plain site. Will I continue to write here? I have seen current mainstream movies in the past six months than in the last 6 years combined. A few positive surprises and a few complete turds. Been very into krautrock lately, this whole time out here has been rather like a travelogue through my different musical phases. Before I was listening to a lot of industrial from the 80s and 90s, I've been putting together a huge mixtape series of primarily industrial stuff, it's been fun. Now I've switched over to Herbie Hancock, reminds me of hanging with Kelli in Bellingham. Time is rather fluid and there's some hidden tensions going on in my life but mostly I feel pretty energized. I feel youthful vigor but don't feel young. That's a good combo. Teaching yoga has been a trip out here, people here seem to get my energy better than they did in MN, that's cool. I'm going further off the grid now, cancelled most all of my internet subscriptions though I'll probably re-subscribe to Netflix when I have a little more money. I've enjoyed the current series of Doctor Who more than any other since the show's come back on the air, it's gotten me even watching some of the old classics. Spent a lot of time hanging out with the Hare Krishnas. Spent a little time hanging with Lon Milo Duquette's Monday Night Magick Group. Used to go up to LA for yoga and Kirtan all the time. Saw Krishna Das, Bhagavan Das, Donna De Lory, Snautam Kaur, C.C. White, Dave Springer, Deeva Premal (who had the drummer form the Doors and the preacher from Agape join her on stage) and a bunch of other people too. Lots of great yoga with Shiva Rea and some kind of silly yoga with Steve Ross. It's weird out here so many people casually know a number of "famous" people, it's just sort how things roll. Xiren is coming over in 15 minutes to help me move so I should do my last round of gathering everything together. Jai! Jai! Jai! Jai! Jai! (jai five, I'll explain later).

Woman awarded €438,000 over negligent hysterectomy operation
A WOMAN has been awarded €438,000 against an obstetrician over negligence in the carrying out of a hysterectomy operation.
Cynthia Kinsella (52), a former secretary of Fortfield Avenue, Terenure, Dublin, sued consultant obstetrician and gynaecologist Dr Gerry Rafferty over the operation he carried out at Mount Carmel Hospital, Dublin, on April 7, 2008.
She required the hysterectomy because she suffered from the heavy menstrual bleeding condition, menorrhagia.
Three weeks after the surgery, her bladder began leaking, or what is known medically as a fistula, causing her great distress. In July, she underwent another operation to repair the problem which was carried out by another doctor assisted by Dr Rafferty.
Mr Justice Iarfhlaith O'Neill found today the probable cause of the fistula was a misplaced suture into the bladder by Dr Rafferty.
Dr Rafferty had "flatly denied" this, the judge noted. The doctor believed she had suffered a rare complication of a hysterectomy, but the judge said he rejected his evidence.
The judge was satisfied Ms Kinsella suffered anxiety and distress when the fistula became apparent.
Her distress did not improve even with the successful repair operation and she developed a severe anxiety disorder with a depressive element, he said.
Ms Kinsella, who is married with no children, had worked all her life as a secretary and was in a senior secretarial position with an engineering firm until November 2008 when she was made redundant due to the downturn in construction, just a few months after the operation.
The judge was satisfied her severe anxiety disorder was caused by negligence in the operation and that she will continue to be afflicted by this disorder for the foreseeable future.
She had been a diligent, competent and valued employee and her capacity for work had been greatly degraded by the disorder. With this condition, she would have "absolutely no chance" of holding down a new job, the judge said.
Had she not suffered as a result of this operation, the judge believed she would in all probability have sought alternative employment after redundancy.
He awarded her €200,000 for past and future pain and suffering, €225,000 for future loss of earnings and €13,184 in special damages.

Implicit Monte Carlo with a linear discontinuous finite element material solution and piecewise non-constant opacity
Here, the non-linear thermal radiative-transfer equations can be solved in various ways. One popular way is the Fleck and Cummings Implicit Monte Carlo (IMC) method. The IMC method was originally formulated with piecewise-constant material properties. For domains with a coarse spatial grid and large temperature gradients, an error known as numerical teleportation may cause artificially non-causal energy propagation and consequently an inaccurate material temperature. Source tilting is a technique to reduce teleportation error by constructing sub-spatial-cell (or sub-cell) emission profiles from which IMC particles are sampled. Several source tilting schemes exist, but some allow teleportation error to persist. We examine the effect of source tilting in problems with a temperature-dependent opacity. Within each cell, the opacity is evaluated continuously from a temperature profile implied by the source tilt. For IMC, this is a new approach to modeling the opacity. We find that applying both source tilting along with a source tilt-dependent opacity can introduce another dominant error that overly inhibits thermal wavefronts. We show that we can mitigate both teleportation and under-propagation errors if we discretize the temperature equation with a linear discontinuous (LD) trial space. Our method is for opacities ~ 1/T 3, but we formulate and test amore »

Hello Family and Friends,
This week was rather normal so there is not too much to report. The highlight of the week was that we invited one of our investigators, G, to be baptized along with 2 of her kids. She accepted the invitation but is still waiting for an answer from God to be fully committed. She has been a member of the Igreja Universal- Evangelical Church- for 14 years now so she is still a little hesitant in accepting everything. She did mention that whenever we leave her house it feels like something good is missing, aka the Spirit. Also, she has some form of cancer and the other day her pastor tried to "cure" her from the disease, and she told us for the first time she felt the biggest impression to leave the church. We will see what happens this week with her if she received an answer or not.
We will be having a big activity in the ward this week, Dessert Night. I was an activity that I thought up and with the help of the other missionaries we will give a message of the Atonement of Christ. We have put everything together and have invited everyone in the ward. We are hoping that they will bring friends and family to the event so that we can increase the number of people that we are teaching. This activity will give us a good idea of how willing the ward is to help the missionary work, and according to the results we will be able to plan bigger and better activities for the future.
The zone leaders and some other missionaries are coming to our area tomorrow to help us out in our area. We are working hard, but our numbers are pretty low still so they will contact a bunch of people for us to teach, I think. I don't really know why they are so worried about us, but I accept the help. I won't lie it has been a great challenge opening up this area especially since NOTHING was left for us to work with from the previous elders. But we have 2 special families we are working with for now and my plan for this week is to find a whole lot more. We were forced to slow down the work this week because of a rain storm that lasted a couple days. It was not fun working at all. Not one person allowed us to go into their house. As much as people tell you that it is easier to enter into houses during the rain it is false, it seems almost worse. But everything is good and I'm not worried, I know things will happen in the Lord's time.
So I have not mentioned much about the area. First, we live in an apartment: 1 study room, kitchen, washer room, bathroom, and room to sleep. It is really nice after a good wash and I am enjoying it. Our city is divided into two parts, I have the North section, and Elder Beary, the senior companion, has the South section. Our section is rather poor and more rural than the south section which has the city center and suburbs. What really stinks is that the majority of the members live in the South section and thus the majority of references are for their area. So basically Elder Machado and I are on our own.
We are living in city with a heavy Gaúcho influence. There is a lot of people on horses and there is a lot of agriculture around here. The food is a lot better than my last area. They spice things up with salads, and noodles etc.. We still eat a ton of meat which is cool. The members are really cool and humble people. They seem to have a desire to work with the missionaries which is a bonus. All in all I like the area, we just need to keep on working hard and I think things will turn around. The people here are not really receptive of the gospel, but hey there has to got be someone that wants to hear the good word we just have to find them.
That is all for now,
Love Elder Miller

Finally, a dream come true! The goal that you have been working hard towards, for so many years is almost a reality now. The construction process of building your home is about to start. But before, you begin, you must keep these tips in mind so that you can build the house of your dreams.
Set a budget
Building a house is a huge investment, therefore you would have to save money for a very long time before you can begin construction. Set a budget based on how much you earn, how you plan on paying off the home loan and the area in which you wish to purchase a land. A land prices in high end areas are bound to be higher than those in other neighborhoods. Apart from this, other expenses such as construction costs, lawyer and permit fees, interior designer and furniture are all factors that must be taken into consideration when deciding on a budget.
Plan it right!
Creating the right plan is the key to achieving your dream home. Set a number of meetings with your architect and explain what your requirements are and how this can be accommodated within your land area and budget. In addition, you must plan for the future as well and build a spacious home accordingly, especially if you are planning on getting married and having kids in the near future.
Hire professional builders
Once you have decided on how much you are willing to spend on this dream, it is time to hire the workers based on the costs you have previously calculated. It is important to hire a reputed construction company that houses a skilled team of workers and charges within your budget as well, in order to ensure that you get your money's worth. Moreover, hire contractors that offer the entire package and do not ask you to hire concrete cutting Perth companies or painters separately. In addition, you must ensure that the contractors are given a deadline and check with past clients whether they completed work within the given time frame.
Use good quality products
Compromising on the quality of products used might seem like a budget friendly option at the moment. However, it is going to increase the costs in the long run, when you have to spend money on repairs every now and then. Therefore, it is alright to spend a little extra and use raw materials that are of good quality and long lasting. Metal products must have industrial coatings Adelaide in order to avoid corrosion within a short time period.If this is one of the biggest investments you have ever made, then it is important that the desired result is achieved. Follow these tips and you are sure to be satisfied with the final outcome.
Tips To Remember When Building Your New Home
Finally, a dream come true! The goal that you have been working hard towards, for so many years is almost a reality now. The construction process of building your home is about to start. But before, you begin, you must keep these tips in mind so that you can build the house of your dreams.

Ecotourism is a form of tourism where people visit areas of ecological significance, usually with a focus on education and sustainable practices. Attractions may include rare or endangered wildlife, rare plants or unique natural features. Ecotourism can be a valuable industry for countries with these resources and can serve as a way to raise sorely needed funds for conservation and preservation.Continue Reading
In many ways, ecotourism can be a double-edged environmental sword. On the one hand, it can raise awareness of fragile ecosystems and endangered wildlife, and the money brought in by ecotourism can prove valuable for local communities and indigenous people. On the other hand, ecotourism typically involves long-distance air travel and an associated increase in air pollution, and large numbers of visitors can put a strain on the local environment and services. Without careful management, an increase in tourists visiting a fragile ecosystem can permanently damage or even destroy it, and even under ideal circumstances, ecotourism can be a delicate balancing act.
In the worst cases, ecotourism can exploit, displace or even destroy local populations and damage the natural environment. Countries that are more interested in the financial benefits of ecotourism than sustainability may take over areas of interest to foreign tourists, building a service industry designed to cater to them and destabilizing the local economy. Regulations designed to preserve areas for tourists may block indigenous people from their traditional means of supporting themselves by hunting, logging or other means of exploiting natural resources, driving them out of sensitive areas.Learn more about Geography

The solution I've found is to enter the options of the rom and sleect "Boot up option" (don't remember what it's called) to slow instead of fast. This makes it take double the time, or more, to boot, but saving then works. Why is this? Why would the speed of booting a rom decide if I can save or not?

2) 1000mhz pentium iii on march 7, 2000
3) pentium 4 introduced on october 20, 2000
4) 2.0ghz pentium 4 on august 27, 2001
5) 2.0 & 2.2ghz 0.13 micron pentium 4s on january 7, 2002
some red letter dates for amd:
1) 500mhz athlon introduced june 23, 1999
2) 1000mhz athlon introduced march 6, 2000
3) athlon thunderbird introduced august 28, 2000
4) athlon xp (palomino) introduced on october 9, 2001
5) [not shown on ace's list] mobile athlon thoroughbred announced on april 17, 2002
i would like to see a comprehensive list showing all processor releases from intel and amd since inception. some basic information on many of intel's x86-based chips is available on their website in something they call the "microprocessor hall of fame." if anyone knows where a comprehensive list exists, please post about it! thank you.
rob's note: well, we list release dates in the processor specs section, but we didn't start listing them until late 1999, starting around the time of the 733mhz pentium iii.

– by nataku
|nataku (4:08pm est tue apr 30 2002)
it officially exists today. but, only in mobile form and so far not in the united states. if you're inclined enough, you could probably track one down over in asia somewhere.
the delay? i don't think the market needs it right now. plus, they might be validating some more extensions within the cpu itself. there are lots of rumors indicating that t'bred *is* more than just a die shrink. it could contain sse2, a larger cache, who knows. but, the rumors are out there that it really is more than previously believed.

btw, i downloaded that cpu program above, and it said that my p3-700 got only 160 megaflops. can that be right? i was sure that the p3 got at least a gigaflop… very weird. – by mdguy
|mdguy (8:53pm est tue apr 30 2002)
you'd need a dedicated piece of hardware to do it today. but, it could be done. in terms of actual computing power, it would be about an order of magnitude faster than today's processors (with commensurate increases in system bus speed, memory performance, etc.). we're talking 30+ ghz processors, 6+ ghz memory buses, etc. with moore's law doubing every 18 months, we're looking at:
sometime around the end of 2007 (5+ years from today). btw, with that law it looks like we'll have chips around the elusive 4.77 ghz rate sometime in 2003-4. :)
– by rick c. hodgin
|i'm also… (10:09pm est tue apr 30 2002)
i'm also interested in flops, as i work in a bio lab where we need lots of computing power.
that program said the p3 got 160 megaflops, that can't be right, can it?
maybe it didn't make use of sse…

"that program said the p3 got 160 megaflops, that can't be right, can it?"
flops can be right if it stresses the ability of the cpu to recover up feeding the execution units after a branch misprediction plus several tests among delayed operations as divisions (which are executed by a non-pipelined unit in the p!!!). – by askheart

People who listened to sounds that were synchronized to their slow brain wave oscillations while they were asleep experienced a boost in memory, Psych Central reported.
Experts said that these findings, published in the journal Neuron, suggest an easy, noninvasive way to influence human brain activity – as well as improve both sleep and memory.
"The beauty lies in the simplicity to apply auditory stimulation at low intensities — an approach that is both practical and ethical, if compared for example with electrical stimulation," co-author Dr. Jan Born, of the University of Tübingen, in Germany, said.
Researchers exposed 11 people to sound simulations, or sham simulations, on different nights. When the study participants listened to stimulating sounds that were in sync with the brain's slow oscillation rhythm, they were better able to remember word associations that they had learned the night before.
Notably, stimulation out of sync with the brain's slow oscillation rhythm was ineffective, Psych Central reported.
"Importantly, the sound stimulation is effective only when the sounds occur in synchrony with the ongoing slow oscillation rhythm during deep sleep. We presented the acoustic stimuli whenever a slow oscillation 'up state' was upcoming, and in this way we were able to strengthen the slow oscillation, showing higher amplitude and occurring for longer periods," explained Born.
Researchers believe that this approach might also be used more generally to improve sleep.
"Moreover, it might be even used to enhance other brain rhythms with obvious functional significance — like rhythms that occur during wakefulness and are involved in the regulation of attention," Born said.

Experts say 'pollen vortex' could make for bad allergy season
Experts are predicting that the frigid winter may lead to an unbearable allergy season, which they are calling the "pollen vortex."
Dr. David Rosenthal, an allergy specialist at LIJ Medical Group, says he's already treating allergy patients. With the cold weather lingering, Rosenthal believes the pollen vortex could mean a shorter, but more intense allergy season.
Rosenthal says pollen season usually lasts through the fall.

Thrill's Big Brown Blog is Allergic
Today, we asked, "What was your worst allergic reaction?" Two stories inspired today's question:
If you don't feel like reading the whole thing, here it is in a nutshell: dude ordered a drink at Starbucks and specifically asked for SOY milk. He got DAIRY milk instead. He's lactose intolerant and used the toilet ELEVEN times in FOUR hours. He was not pleased...and he felt compelled to let Starbucks know.
Story in a nutshell: if you have a gluten allergy or, worse, Celiac Disease, AND you're a practicing Catholic, bad news...God doesn't care. The Vatican sent out a worldwide edict that specifies that COMMUNION wafers MUST contain gluten.
Praise the lord!!!
There was no shortage of responses because everybody's got something...but the call that stands out came from an, um, interesting fella named Dustin.
Dustin explained that he's allergic to green olives. He discovered this on his birthday when he was given a "white trash martini" by his girlfriend.
What is a "white trash martini"? Good question. A "white trash martini" is a Pabst Blue Ribbon beer with a few green olives in it. If that sounds disgusting, it's because it is.
Anyway, he broke into hives, got itchy and all that, but he didn't think it was the olives. As he put it, "I didn't think much of it. I just figured she'd poisoned me or something."
We're not sure he really heard the words coming out of his mouth because he made the above statement with a calmness usually reserved for watching paint dry.
Anyway, after many 'white trash martinis', he realized that the olives were the hive-inducing culprit.
We asked if he now avoids green olives. We SHOULDN'T have been shocked by his answer...but we were when he told us that he keeps a jar of olives in his work locker so he can eat a few, have a break out and get out of work early.
Yep. We share the world with this guy. Part of me is terrified, part of me is so impressed with this guy.
I'm so confused.
Until tomorrow, do what you do best and STAY BEAUTIFUL!

Procter & Gamble Co posted a quarterly profit well ahead of analysts' forecasts and said it has modestly higher expectations for growth in the industry even as consumers continue to remain cautious.
P&G's pantry of products have been pressured for months, as shoppers try cheaper brands than Pampers and Tide, and eschew indulgences such as Hugo Boss cologne and SK-II face cream.
The world's largest household products maker earned $3.31 billion, or $1.06 per share, in the fiscal first quarter that ended on September 30, compared with a profit of $3.35 billion, or $1.03 per share, a year earlier.
Analysts, on average, expected P&G to earn 99 cents per share, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
Net sales fell 6% to $19.8 billion, with declines in every category ranging from beauty to snacks and pet care.
Organic sales, which exclude the impact of currency fluctuations, acquisitions and divestitures, rose 2 percent. P&G had predicted such sales would be flat to down 3%. (Reuters)

Potluck Pride
Impressive dishes that are easy to make, take, and share.
By Sheryl Julian and Julie Riven October 10, 2004

Community potluck dinners are an American tradition, particularly in rural New England. These days, that system of spreading the workload seems particularly appropriate. No one wants to get stuck with all the cooking, even for a cocktail party or weekend dinner for friends, and asking each person to bring a dish solves any number of logistical and timing problems.

A President to Remember: In the Company of John F. Kennedy
Empty TWITTER
EmptyTribeca Film Festival (Drew Associates)
Cinema verite pioneer Robert Drew has revisited some of his most notable early efforts for this powerful new documentary about the 35th President. A re-edited compilation of footage from such seminal works as "Primary, " "Faces of November" and others, "A President to Remember: In the Company of John F. Kennedy" is clearly timed to resonate at a point in the country's history when confidence in the office is at a low ebb.
The film, which also includes footage never previously released, is startling for the close access granted to the filmmaker by Kennedy both during his election campaign and his early days in office.
Thus, we see many candid scenes filmed during Kennedy's primary contest against Hubert Humphrey and his eventual presidential race against Richard Nixon. Extensive segments are also devoted to such momentous historical events as the Cuban Missile Crisis; his battle with Governor George Wallace over desegregating the University of Alabama; and the immediate aftermath of his assassination.
There are also fascinating diversions into such minor but fascinating elements as when Kennedy seriously injured his back while briefly digging up some dirt during a ceremonial tree planting.
The film, which features unobtrusive narration by Alec Baldwin, is notable for its intimate portrait of its subject, which was achieved thanks to both the unprecedented access granted by the history-minded Kennedy and the then-new camera technology that made it possible.

Let me just remind you of the predictions I made before the race:
1st – Fernando Alonso
2nd – Sebastian Vettel
3rd – Lewis Hamilton
7th – Jenson Button
3 out of 4 is pretty damn good! It was a bit of luck that got Lewis Hamilton his 1st podium finish of the season as he managed to jump Nico Rosberg thanks to Rosberg being held back because of Jenson Button entering the pits. And who said Hamilton and Button could't work as a team?
Things didn't start so well for Lewis as he was over-taken by Nico Rosberg at the start. Before the race there were worries that Lewis may be heavy on the tyres, and that would be to the detriment of his race performance. Not only did he cope very well but he mentioned over the radio that Rosberg was holding him up and once in clear space was putting in fast laps up their with the best of them.
Jenson himself lost a place at the start, and mirroring Lewis, he too gained that place back during the tyre change stop. After the race he said that he'd been conserving his tyres in the first stint and thought maybe he'd come in too early. After the one and only pit stop Jenson stayed behind Schumacher for the whole race, who he said held him up but there was no chance to overtake. After qualifying 8th, Jenson finished in 7th in his first race with McLaren.
As the race progressed it became clear that race leader Sebastian Vettel had a problem with his car. This turned out to be an exhaust failure which allowed eventual winner Fernando Alonso, Felipe Massa and then Lewis Hamilton to pass him. So from a superb 4th place qualifying, Lewis ended up on the podium in 3rd – an excellent start to the season.
[picapp align="center" wrap="false" link="term=bahrain+grand+prix&iid=8233358″ src="e/4/0/c/F1_Grand_Prix_8378.jpg?adImageId=11240803&imageId=8233358″ width="500″ height="333″ /]
While being interviewed on the BBC F1 Forum Jenson was asked about the 40+ second gap between him and the Ferraris, to which he responded by pointing out that Hamilton was a lot closer at 20+ seconds behind. It was nice to see that Jenson both sees that there is more to get out of the car from him and that Hamilton performed better. So far the McLaren team seem to all be working very well as a team – could Lewis have finally found the perfect team mate?
Lewis gets 15 points for 3rd place while Jenson gets 6 points for 7th place. With a total of 21 points McLaren currently sit 2nd on the Constructor's Championship, 22 points behind Ferrari and 3 points ahead of Mercedes.
What has become evident after this weekend is that qualification is more important than ever, something Lewis and especially Jenson will have to work on. It wasn't the most interesting of races and it remains to be seen if this was the result of the no refuelling rule change or the lack of overtaking chances at the Bahrain circuit. As a McLaren fan I'm very pleased with how things have gone this weekend, as it seemed they could have gone a lot worse at one point.
Also worthy of a mention is Heikki Kovalainen, who finished 15th in his Lotus, the highest position of all the new cars.

From Beijing to Xi'an, Chengdu, Yangshuo and Hong Kong: this is China at its most epic
This is pretty much the China highlights tour: you've got the Great Wall just outside of Beijing, the Terracotta Warriors in Xi'an, epic outdoorsyness in Yangshuo and the neon lights in Hong Kong, oh, and who could say no to pandas! Just remember, Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan and that giant panda all descend from China and were all awesome at kung fu. So take this trip, pay close attention and you could be too. Maybe.
Some of our under-30 travellers prefer to get around with people their own age. If that's you, you're in the right place!
Over 29? We've got over 900 other great adventures to choose from for solo travellers, friends, families, food lovers, hiking enthusiasts, and more.
Save a space on your 2019 trip with only a R1250 deposit until 31 August 2018.Terms & Conditions

Travel how the locals travel: make some friends on overnight train routes, then peep into the future courtesy of China's high-speed trains.

Contrast cycling among farms and karst hills in Yangshuo's picturesque countryside with a jaunt through Hong Kong's famous neon lights and sensory overload.

Scout Sunday (for Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts) was celebrated at the 9 a.m. Mass, Feb. 7, at St. Stephen R.C. Church on Grand Island.
The Boy Scouts of America designate the Sunday preceding Feb. 8, or Feb. 8 if it is a Sunday, as Scout Sunday, a day to mark the founding of the Scouts in the United States. Scouts go to their places of worship in uniform and assist with the service.
The St. Stephen church bulletin said the event at the Baseline Road church both celebrated Scouting and honored Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts who have earned religious awards, including:
•From Cub Scout Pack 630, earning the Light of Christ medal: John Stancliff.
•From Cub Scout Pack 630, earning the Parvuli Dei medal: James Moorhouse.
•From Boy Scout Troop 630, working towards the Pope Pius XII Award: Cade Mongielo, Joseph Peters, and Patrick Stouter.
Also, Brian Wynne received his Eagle Scout award at Mass, which was followed by a reception.
The religious emblem programs help these young men explore a wide range of activities and discover the presence of God in their daily lives.
Members of Cub Scout Pack 630 and Boy Scout Troop 630 were honored at St. Stephen R.C. Church on Scout Sunday, Feb. 7.

In a large pan with straight sides, or in a pot, add the bratwurst links, beer, liquid smoke, red pepper flakes, whole black peppercorns, garlic, onion, all of the bell peppers and a nice pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, and then lower to a simmer for 15 minutes. Flip and nudge the bratwursts if they stick out above the liquid as they cook.
Brush a grill with oil, then heat the grill to medium-high. Remove the bratwursts from the liquid and place on the grill. Cook 15 minutes, turning every 5 minutes to brown and blacken all sides (don't worry about the concave side). Remove from the grill and allow to rest under aluminum foil for 10 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 150 degrees F.
Meanwhile, add the sugar and vinegar to the pan with the cooked peppers and onions. Stir into the beer mixture until the sugar dissolves. Simmer for 15 minutes.
Warm the buns or bread in the oven for 5 to 10 minutes, depending on the bread.
Slice each bratwurst into 1/2-inch discs and place inside the warmed bread. Using tongs, grab and shake any excess liquid off the quick-pickled peppers and onions, then top each bratwurst with an equal amount. Top that with a nice and hefty dollop or two of Sunny's Curry Ketchup.
Place the tomatoes, garlic, onion, cinnamon stick, ginger, star anise, sugar, curry powder, allspice, peppercorns, a pinch of salt, corn syrup and vinegar in a stock pot over medium heat. Bring to a boil, and then lower to a light simmer. Use a potato masher or wooden spoon to mash down and break up the tomatoes as it heats up.
Cover and simmer on low for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. Uncover and cook 45 minutes more to evaporate and thicken while stirring occasionally. Remove the cinnamon stick, anise pod and ginger. Using an immersion blender or a stand blender (slightly cool?), blend until smooth. Pour into an airtight container and refrigerate overnight or until cool. Taste and if needed, add vinegar 1/2 teaspoon at a time to balance the sweetness.

The terrifying trends of Halloween make a few headlines each year. Animatronic masks have been big over recent holidays, and over-the-top yard haunts seem to get over-the-toppier with each passing October 31.
Let's add an adults-only ritual to the chilling proceedings, a ritual that is about as here-to-stay as any costume party: the cocktail crawl.
Yep, they happen on pretty much any weekend of the year, but they're popping up, more and more, on the spine-tingliest night of the year. Perhaps it is our not-so-secret desire to wear outlandish wigs and make-up as we sip that martini? Discuss.
Three are just ahead for Thursday, Oct. 31. Make sure the kiddies are done trick-or-treating and are watching a sweetly spooky movie with a babysitter before heading out for...
Santa Monica Zombie Crawl: It's the inaugural year for the bar-to-bar shuffle. Ye Olde King's Head, Britannia Pub, and Rusty's on the Pier are three stops (and each stop has a time, so check it out when you purchase your ticket). Should you show as a zombie? Please. Do we need to answer that? Let's put it this way: Don't not show as a zombie, 'kay?
Boos for Booze: Make for Culver City, in costume or not (but obviously "in" is what we're hoping). Then hit three restaurants -- A-Frame, Waterloo & City, and The Corner Door -- for a cocktail crawl of creepy proportions. Kettle corn, scary bites, and a drink called "The Omen" shall be available for purchase. The crawl starts at A-Frame between 5-7 p.m.
Dim Sum Costumed Crawl: Buns, shrimp dishes, foamy brews, and small bites are the holiday supping stars around the historic Chinatown to-do, as are swanky craft beers. Just think about how all of that pretty neon will make your Halloween outfit glow. General admission is $60.

Eric Dane: The Pinnacle of StyleSteve Marsi at . Comments
Eric Dane's morning checklist... Aviator shades? Check. Straw hat? Check. Wife-beater? Check. Hawaiian shirt? Check. Warm-up pants? Check!
The Grey's Anatomy actor, 35, may not win any sort of fashion awards for this choice of outfit, but he still manages, somehow, to look kind of cool as he makes a coffee / breakfast run in Los Angeles on Saturday morning.
Dane and the rest of the Grey's Anatomy cast will be appearing at a benefit called "Good Medicine" on February 29 to support crew members hampered by the three-month work stoppage during the writers' strike.
We're pleased to repeat that Eric Dane does not have skin cancer, as was erroneously reported by a celebrity gossip magazine earlier this month.

The last week or so I have been having an interesting although somewhat confused back and forth email ride with someone who showed me a photo of a strand of what may possibly be Japan Kasumi pearls purchased at Gump's (a high end retail department store in San Francisco). I have not seen the invoice but it was purchased in "circa" 1982. The strand does bare resemblance to some vintage Japanese freshwater strands we have in our archive, and of course the date purchased would mean that they definitely not Chinese fresh water pearls.
This is a photo of their strand.
I did my best to educate the inquirer about Japan Kasumi pearls and gave my best assessment.
During the course of the emails it became clear that the owner did not consider the characteristic rippled surface of Japan Kasumi pearls to be an indication of a valuable item. (understandable).. They also seemed to consider the deeper colors to be garish and I suppose what they meant was that the deep colors of Japan Kasumi pearls are not white and thus not "pearl color".
They "challenged" me to come up with a strand that surpassed the quality of theirs.
As we do not stock many of the round or near round Japan Kasumi pearls ... they do not have the rich deep colors and rainbow overtones that their wrinkled counterparts display... I made a huge mess of the table, and put a strand together with the best loose Japan Kasumi pearls we generally reserve for special one of a kind jewelry, and designer requests.
Even though I was a bit charged by the "challenge"... I SO enjoyed laying out this strand.
Since this is a very rare thing for me to do... In fact I don't remember putting together such a round strand of Japan Kasumi pearls EVER. (mind you, this is simply a lay out, not a finished piece).
The 16" strand of natural color Japan Kasumi near round pearls ranging in size from 14.3 - 10mm. These pearls were purchased by us at Lake Kasumi ga Ura over the course of the last ten years. (I know because Fuji is a master record keeper
So.... in case anyone here (besides the pearl experts and uber educated among you) was wondering.. YES Japan Kasumi pearls can be ROUND! They may not have rainbow overtones.. but they sure made my heart sing.
All best to all you pearls.. with Spring warmth from San Rafael!
