Ayn Rand: A Sense of Life SYNOPSIS
Ayn Rand was born in 1905 in St. Petersburg, Russia. Defying the death warrant of the Soviet Union, she came to America as a temporary visitor in 1926 but remained for the rest of her life. Later, she would also defy the cultural and political views of contemporary America in such best-selling novels as THE FOUNTAINHEAD and ATLAS SHRUGGED. Her unique philosophy, Objectivism, challenged the cultural tradition of 2,500 years . . .

In Pharr's book, there is a koppa, a kappa, and a chi. I think the koppa is an aspirated 'k' sound while the kappa is an unaspirated 'k' sound. But what is the chi? Aspirated 'k' sound? Or is it more like the ch in 'chance'?

GlottalGreekGeek wrote:The difference between omicron and omega is that one is long, and one is short. Notice the "micron" in "omicron" and "mega" in "omega". However, the sound is the same, it's just the time you keep on saying it.
EDIT 2 : Do not disregard vau, at least not for Homer. Although it was not written in most texts, Homer probably did pronounce it. It is useful for making his verses scan in some instances. See Pharr 525-526
psilord wrote:Also, epsilon and eta are difficult for me to figure out.
annis wrote:]
Most Gk textbooks still give the Erasmian pronunciation, which has the omicron/omega and epsilon/eta qualities exactly opposite what I've given here.
psilord wrote:Ok, I got the alpha, omicron, and omega difference after extended practice. Now, concerning improper dipthongs. Do I sound the iota as hinted in Pharr 506?
psilord wrote:Also, what is alpha? the Hungarian "a" (no grave) sound?
psilord wrote:then how is
Is the glide what makes [face=spionic]ei[/face] the dipthong and differentiates it from [face=spionic]e[/face]?
Also, are [face=spionic]hu,oi,ou,wu[/face] all pronounced the same? Kinda like an 'oo' in spoon?
annis wrote: They are not at all pronounced the same. [face=spionic]ou[/face] is /u:/, like "spoon," but the rest are pronounced like their components, with the proviso that final upsilon isn't fronted in a diphthong. So [face=spionic]hu[/face] is /E:u/, [face=spionic]oi[/face] is /oi/, and the very rare [face=spionic]wu[/face] is /O:u/ (well, it's more common in Herodotus).
psilord wrote:What do you mean by "final upsilon isn't fronted in a dipthong"?
Also, what is a vowel (often a dipthong) which has two little dots over it? An example would be from Pharr's Lesson I vocabulary: [face=spionic]proi+a/ptw[/face].
Obviously, I don't know how to put the two dots over the iota in betacode.
How's your "current evidence of pronounciation for Homeric Greek" document comming along?

The bidding war for online video site Hulu was extended to give DirecTV (NASDAQ:DTV) more time to work out financing, according to news reports Friday.
Continue Reading Below
The New York Post said the satellite television operator is one of the leading suitors, along with Guggenheim Digital Media and Chernin Entertainment, which has partnered with AT&T (NYSE:T).
Final bids were due Friday but have been pushed to at least the middle of next week, the report added. Earlier this month, reports suggested that bids were coming in around $1 billion.
Spokespeople for DirecTV, Guggenheim and Hulu declined to comment. A representative of The Chernin Group didn't respond to a request for comment.
Hulu, which is owned by FOX Business parent News Corp. (NASDAQ:NWSA), Walt Disney (NYSE:DIS) and Comcast (NASDAQ:CMCSA), received initial bids from a wide range of suitors.
Yahoo (NASDAQ:YHOO) and KKR (NYSE:KKR) are also interested, but several reports Friday indicated that their offers were low and will likely push them out of the running.
Another bidder, Time Warner Cable (NYSE:TWC), is offering to buy just a portion of Hulu.
The Los Angeles-based site was previously put on the block in 2011 and is back up for sale as its owners disagree over how to generate revenue. News Corp. is said to prefer paid subscriptions for Hulu, while Disney has pushed for free video streaming and generating revenue from ads.
Disney and News Corp. each own about one-third of Hulu. Comcast owns most of the remaining third but gave up control after acquiring NBC Universal.
According to its website, Hulu has more than three million subscribers who pay $7.99 a month for its Hulu Plus premium service. It generated $700 million in revenue last year, including advertising sales.
Shares of DirecTV rose 1.8% to $61.85 in late morning trading, while AT&T was trading five cents lower at $35.58. Yahoo! slid 1.6% to $25.06.
Time Warner Cable shares continued to climb, a day after Bloomberg News reported that Liberty Media (NASDAQ:LMCSA) Chairman John Malone was exploring ways Charter Communications (NASDAQ:CHTR) could work out a deal for the cable company. On Friday, the stock jumped 2.74% to $111.19.

Simple Way to Update Sony Drivers
There are a number of frequent warnings as well as other messages that you could get in the driver upgrading procedure, several of which I've paraphrased and listed right here together with guidance on what to do:
QUESTION: So I have a Sony Vaio SVD1322BPXR and the usb ports are not working. Optical 3 button mouses cannot connect nor can my USB both of which work on other computers. I have absolutely no idea what the problem is.
Although, I looked into device manager and found USB root hub xhcl had an exclamation mark next to it. It says that it cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver could possibly be corrupted or missing. (Code 39). Once I try to update the driver for it it says the driver is up to date. Does this have anything to do with it?
I've also tried uninstalling all the usb extensions and rebooting. It did nothing (All the extensions came back even xhcl with the exclamation mark).
I really don't know what to do and any help will be appreciated.
ANSWER: Possibly the driver is corrupted or the USB devices are busted. Let's isolate the issue. Kindly follow these steps:
- Power cycle - Remove the battery and all peripherals -> press and hold the power button for 5 seconds OR, if the battery is not removable, remove all peripherals -> look for a battery off button on the bottom of the laptop -> push the button for 5 seconds
- Reset BIOS
- Download the drivers for your Sony device.
- Run Vaio update and Windows update.
How to Update Drivers with Device Manager?
1. Find Control Panel.
Depending on your version of Windows, Control Panel is usually available from the Start Menu or the Apps screen.
What you do next depends on what Windows operating system you're using:
- In Windows 10 and Windows 8, tap or click on the Hardware and Sound link.
- In Windows 7, click System and Security.
- In Windows Vista, choose System and Maintenance.
- In Windows XP, click Performance and Maintenance.
Note: If you don't see these options, your Control Panel view may be set to Large icons, Small icons, or Classic View, depending on your version of Windows. If so, find and choose Device Manager from the big collection of icons you see and then skip to Step 3 below.
2. Open Device Manager
- In Windows 10 and Windows 8, check under the Devices and Printers heading.
- In Windows 7, look under System.
- In Windows Vista, you'll find Device Manager towards the bottom of the window.
- Windows XP Only: You have a few extra steps since Device Manager isn't as easily available in your version of Windows.
From the open Control Panel window, click System, choose the Hardware tab, and then click the Device Manager button.
3. With Device Manager now open, you can view a device's status, update the device drivers, or do whatever other hardware management you came here to do.
To set Windows to install recommended updates
To automatically get available driver updates for your hardware, set Windows to install recommended updates. You can set Windows to automatically install important and recommended updates or important updates only. Optional updates aren't downloaded or installed automatically. To get all available updates for your devices, periodically check Windows Update for optional updates.
- Open Windows Update by clicking the Start button. In the search box, type Update, and then, in the list of results, click Windows Update.
- In the left pane, click Change settings.
- Under Important updates, click an item in the list. You can decide which updates to automatically download and install.
- Under Recommended updates, select the Give me recommended updates the same way I receive important updates check box, and then click OK. If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation. You can also allow anyone using your computer to install updates by selecting the Allow all users to install updates on this computer check box.
That error still there? Don't Give Up! Try DriverTuner
1. Click here to download DriverTuner and double click it to install
2. Scan your PC for out-of-date drivers. Select the drivers(here you should choose SONY VGN-BX760) which need to be updated and click download. Or you can just check SELECT ALL.
3. When the drivers are downloaded, click SETUP to install them. That's it. Your driver for SONY VGN-BX760 has been updated. Sometimes you need to restart your computer to let the changes take effect.

Move over Batman and Robin, there's a new dynamic duo in town, and they are out to clean up the town's neighborhoods and streets one nuisance building and nefarious absentee landlord at a time.
For the past two years, Webster's Health Agent Cathleen M. Liberty and Building Inspector Theodore G. Tetreault III have rigorously gone beyond the call of duty when it comes to health code and building inspections, but now they are taking code enforcement to the next level.
Ms. Liberty and Mr. Tetreault have a new, marked "Code Enforcement Vehicle" (unofficially dubbed "The White Knight") and matching "Code Enforcement" uniforms, all in an effort to restore "an old mill town with more than a bucketful of problems" to its original glory.
"We focus on properties that police are at all the time. They are unsafe, structurally unsound, unsanitary. Our goal is that either he (Mr. Tetreault) removes the property or I condemn it. We remove the undesirables," Ms. Liberty said. "We have been in homes that have been so dilapidated. We have been in homes that have been so unsanitary. People out there, defecating in buckets and sleeping on a mattress on the floor.
"If you're looking at a town that looks like it gave up and in disarray, it doesn't give anybody incentive to clean anything up," Mr. Tetreault said. "So if we can get the ball rolling and start cleaning things up, maybe the neighbors of the property we clean up will start cleaning up their act and it will spread. It took years for Webster to get in the position it's in. It's not going to happen overnight to bring it (back). We're going to put a hell of a dent in it while we're here."
Town Administrator John F. McAuliffe said the town created an opportunity to bring two full-time code enforcement people on board. Within three months of each other, Ms. Liberty and Mr. Tetreault were hired.
"When Ted and I first met, we started talking the code," Ms. Liberty recalled. "We understood that John hired us for a mission. We enforce the code. We are the Code Enforcement, and now we have The White Knight."
In two years, Code Enforcement has deemed 41 sites nuisance properties, 23 of which have been demolished and an additional five that are being considered for demolition.
Friday, the Code Enforcement team got its new wheels, a former police cruiser complete with yellow warning lights, a crash bar on the front grill and a fresh coat of white paint and green lettering with the words, "Webster Code Enforcement."
"Our Code Enforcement is going to roll onto a scene as they have done every day, but instead of people questioning who are they and what are they up to, there is going to be a strong statement that this is a branch of our public safety department," Mr. McAuliffe said. "If you're a landlord and you're playing games, you're in the wrong town."
Webster received national attention when officials decided to take a more public approach to the problem of urban blight.
On Feb. 28, 2011, the health board approved the "walls of shame," an innovative effort to push the owners of nuisance properties into the limelight.
Once the board deems a property a nuisance or condemns a building, it may, at its discretion, also post signs on the exterior identifying the building's owner. The 4-by-8-foot signs can spell out the status of the property, the name of the owner, address and contact information.
For those deemed a nuisance, an "order to correct" letter is sent to the owner. If the owner doesn't deal with the problem in a timely fashion, the "wall of shame" sign is put up.
"In most cases, we found the letter itself was enough to make them start with the repairs," Ms. Liberty said.
It's not just privately owned nuisance properties that are being targeted by Code Enforcement, but also town-owned property.
"If you're a landlord that's not keeping your property in good shape or a homeowner that's allowing things to fall to disrepair, your number will get picked. We will get to you," Mr. McAuliffe said. "We're starting with the tougher ones, those really difficult, older, abandoned or nuisance housing stock first."
Although it's the health agent and building inspector leading the nuisance property crusade, both are quick to point out that it's a joint venture that includes the Fire Department, Police Department, assessor, town administrator, highway department, selectmen and animal control.

Two-stroke GP racing is expected to die next year, and the announcement of the Moto3 class is expected to occur during the GP Commission's meeting at the Czech GP in a couple days. Scheduled to meet on Friday, the GP Commission has been hammering out the details on the 250cc single-cylinder four-stroke racing class that will replace 125GP in 2012, and will likely make an announcement after Sunday's race.
Similar in concept to the Moto2 class, the most notable difference is the rumor that the Moto3 class will not be a spec-motor series, meaning any manufacturer can build a thumper and compete in the series. Considering the large number of manufacturers that already have experience racing 250cc singles, we can expect an array of bikes to be on the grid in 2012.

I always get excited about our spring outdoorsman's swap meet, which will be held in just a week or so. We usually ask the Springfield news media to help us publicize it, since it is only 15 minutes north of Springfield, but they never do, so it ends up being something of a secret to everyone except the readers of this column. And since this column is used by about 35 newspapers in southern Missouri, north Arkansas and Eastern Kansas, we usually attract a pretty good crowd without being crowded.
The particulars are this… it is held from 8 to 2 on Saturday, March 23 at the gymnasium of the Brighton Assembly of God church, about a half-mile off of Highway 13 (take the hwy 215 exit going east). THE WHOLE DARN THING IS FREE TO VISITORS OR VENDORS! We usually fill about 45 tables, and we still have about ten tables available. If it is a nice day we usually have some boats and motors outside and maybe a canoe or two. Inside you will find everything imaginable.
Dave Olson always brings some beautiful hardwood cutting boards for ladies at a really low price, and if you want one, come early as he always sells out by noon. Larry Eggers has a table full of hand-made cedar box turkey calls that are some of the best I have ever seen, some of them hand painted. Ed Davis and his son brings lots of items, among which are hand-made wing-bone calls worth three times what he sells them for. Dave Preddy brings furs and mounts like bobcats and foxes, that are great for dens or living rooms, and fur caps that make you look like a mountain man. One table is filled with handmade knives, another with old hunting guns. Several ladies bring canned goods and baked goods, and there will be more new and used fishing lures, rods and reels and fishing paraphernalia than you have ever seen in one place. Many of those lures are antiques, and one fellow says he bought a hundred dollar antique lure at our swap meet two years ago for 3 dollars. A local spinner bait maker will have some lures you just have to try for spring fishing. They are different than any I have ever seen.
There will be an abundance of wildlife art and hopefully a wildlife artist or two, antique outdoor magazines and sporting posters, and an author or two signing books. I intend to bring about 100 outdoor magazines, (Outdoor Life and Field and Stream among them), from the 70's and 80's that we are going to just give away.
I enjoy it so much because I get to meet with and talk to so many people who read this column. I give away samples of my magazine, and sign my books and sell them at a discount, and then we donate a percentage of that back to the church, which in turn uses it for local kids who need things during the school year which they can't buy. Last year we collected about five hundred dollars for that purpose, with generous donations from vendors and visitors.
The youth of the Brighton Assembly of God church are there to keep people from getting hungry. In the morning they are fixing biscuits and gravy, and then at mid-day they have pork sandwiches, hamburgers, and other things to eat. They usually have pie and cake too. Coffee and soft drinks are available all day. The charge for food and drinks is nominal, and that goes into church funds for the youth.
There is indeed a mix of things new and old, and there will be more antique items to look at than you have time for. But this year there will be something special to go to the highest bidder. Some folks have a victorola record player about a hundred years old, the old crank-up type, which still works, with beautiful standing walnut cabinet and some old records to use with it. I don't know how much it is worth but it will be on display and offered to the highest bidder.
But here's something new we are going to do… we are going to set up two tables which will be attended by the Lightnin Ridge Outdoor Journal's newest employee, Kathy Pirtle for any of you folks who have one or two or three outdoor items you have always wanted to sell.
We'll sell them for you while you look around and enjoy yourself. You can put your name in the drawing box and at noon, we will draw names and give away a whole table full of prizes donated to us for the drawing. If your name is drawn you can pick any item on the table, and some of those prizes are worth more than 100 dollars.
In addition to Kathy, Lightnin' Ridge editor Sondra Gray will be there, as well as Dorothy Loges, our design and layout director. My family will all be there too of course, as I have persuaded all my daughters to show up and help. I am going to try to get some of my handmade turkey calls ready if time allows. Last year every time someone subscribed to our magazine, I gave them one of my turkey calls, inscribed and signed.
Anyhow, as you can see, we are going to have a great time, and I am so thankful to the people of the Brighton Assembly of God church, and their assistant pastor in particular, Mark Cross, for making all this possible. Mark will be there and local folks should make it a point to meet him. Mark will show you the old time church, which must be close to 80 years old. It actually sets inside the present day building. The new church and it' gym and Sunday school rooms were all built around that old rock church.
You can probably tell how excited I get about this swap meet. We start working on it on Friday, the day before, and if you would like to help, or if you come from a long ways off and would like to set up your table on Friday evening, March 22, just call me. My phone number is 417-777-5227. You can see a map to the church on my website, www.larrydablemontoutdoors.blogspot.com. It is about 6 or 7 miles south of Bolivar, about 16 miles north of Springfield, just off highway 13. And like I said, we still have about 10 tables available.
Write to me at Box 22, Bolivar, mo. 65613 or e-mail me at firstname.lastname@example.com
*We only ask that those who bring guns bring only hunting guns, no assault type weapons.*

The apocalyptic horror series "The Strain" will return for a second season, FX announced Tuesday.
Based on a trilogy of novels by Guillermo del Toro and Chuck Hogan, the show is the latest high-concept thriller to explore the end of modern civilization — here, the threat arrives on board a flight into JFK when an old-world monster steals away on the plane and infects the passengers with a virus that transforms them into blood-thirsty monsters.
Corey Stoll's CDC epidemiologist Eph Goodweather finds himself drawn into the unfolding chaos, and before long, he is forced to partner with an eccentric pawn shop owner, Abraham Setrakian (played by David Bradley), to face down the creatures.
PHOTOS: Hollywood Backlot on the set of 'The Strain'
"The thing I wanted to do in 'The Strain,' you can actually see this world collapse in a week," Del Toro said in an interview with Hero Complex earlier this year. "If the circumstances are right, the world could collapse in a week. If we lose all our digital and all our electronics and the right acts of terror occur, the world could collapse very fast."
"The Strain" premiered July 13 as FX's entry into the arena of marquee genre television that has proved such a tremendous boon to the network's rivals AMC and HBO with their respective series "The Walking Dead" and "Game of Thrones."
The first episode, which Del Toro directed, became the most-watched premiere in the history of the channel with 12.7 million total viewers, and it has continued to perform well, ranking as the top new cable series among adults 18-49.
"It's very hard to make people believe in the supernatural, including vampires, but if you ask anyone about a pandemic, they get almost superstitious about it," Del Toro said. "You can scare people by saying there's a viral threat, they put paper masks on — it's almost like a spiritual fear of contagion. So it was a good way to treat the vampires."
The first season of "The Strain" is set for release on DVD and Blu-ray on Dec. 2.
The show's 13-episode second season will arrive next year.

Thief writes note to self about plans
Tool kit for stealing found by Oceanside cops
Eva Knott 10:30 a.m., Sept. 18
I'm sitting here looking at a photo taken shortly before Christmas 2008. It's a very good photo: dramatic and sharply focused. It's a December afternoon in downtown San Diego: trees dotting a vast swath of sun-washed, empty parking lot. In the foreground, walking away from the camera, is my 11-year-old son. His head is bowed, and it's because of what is in his hands: a chilled bottle of water and a brown paper lunch bag.
On the outside of the bag is a child's Magic Marker drawing of a Christmas tree, and also a word: "Faith," "Hope," "Peace," "Joy," or "Love" — I'm not sure which, but I know it's one of those. I know because I was there in my kitchen when my wife Deirdre wrote it on the bag and on the 30 or so other bags that received the same treatment. One by one, they'd been labeled with the name of some spiritual good, decorated with a traditional Christmas symbol — stars, wreaths, trees — and filled: an apple or an orange, a Baggie full of Fritos, a napkin, and a sandwich. Some sandwiches got turkey, some got ham, all got a slice of cheese, a broad leaf of iceberg lettuce, and a thin layer of mayonnaise.
Back to the photograph and my son's bowed head. It's bowed because he's unhappy. This is not how he wants to be spending his Saturday afternoon, even if he does see the point in feeding the hungry. He'd rather be doing what he wants with his free time — and who wouldn't? (Here I am reminded of a splendid bit from C.S. Lewis's Screwtape Letters. The devil Screwtape advises his nephew Wormwood that a great way to ensnare a man is to trick him into thinking his time is his own, so that every request made of him — regardless of its goodness — is an impingement, a source of irritation.)
These bagged lunches are bound for the homeless, you see, and my son would rather be doing this particular kindness from afar. It's not like when he participates in the Christmas pageant for the old folks at Little Flower Haven on La Mesa Boulevard. There, he gets up in front of the crowd and says his lines loud and clear and generally brings delight, but as soon as it's over, he gets to eat cookies and hang out with his fellow actors. He doesn't have to, you know, talk to the Olds, the Strangers, and the Possibly Loopy.
Here, he has to look people in the eye. Here, he has to talk to people. And not just people — homeless people. Suffering people, who may be unfriendly, or too friendly, or smelly, or intoxicated, or crazy, or ungrateful, or just deeply embittered. Couldn't he just do some jobs, get paid, and donate the money to charity? No, he could not. Because his father wants him to meet his Neighbor — the one Christ told him to love, the one lying in a ditch like the Jew found by the Good Samaritan. (G.K. Chesterton has a great bit on this in his essay "On the Institution of the Family": "We have to love our neighbor because he is there.… He is the sample of humanity which is actually given us.")
Many, many years ago, in my teens, I used to go to the Catholic Worker in Los Angeles to feed the poor on Skid Row, just minutes away from downtown Los Angeles and its luxury hotels. Here there were the poorest of the poor, but even more than this; here were people whose lives and hopes have been crushed, many of them fallen victim to drug and alcohol addiction, a small way of them dealing often with a lifetime of rejection, abuse, and the struggle with mental illness. We assembled there to feed the poor a Christmas Day lunch. The poor lined up outside and came into the hallway, with tables set in rows so people could sit down and have a meal. Inevitably, there were problems on the line, and Jeff Dietrich and his wife Catherine would calm things down. The faces are now a blur in my memory, but what I do remember are their tattered clothes and the fact that many of them obviously hadn't been able to bathe in some time. And this despite the fact that the hotels just blocks away were probably only half full.
There were big vats to cook the soup; we used lots and lots of vegetables, carrots, celery, and chicken, and lots of spices. I remember pouring what I thought was sugar in my coffee and drinking, only to find out I poured the salt in; and I spit it out; which meant, I think, that I'd put the sugar in the soup. Not my best day, but I was a volunteer novice, especially as compared to those who worked the line each and every day. Making the big soups took quite a while, an hour or more; and the other Catholic Workers seemed to combine elements of recipes with on-the-spot quick decisions based on what leftover food they had gotten from the local markets. The big pots of soup fed hundreds and hundreds; how they always seemed to have just enough, we never knew. It was just as Jesus and Catholic Worker founder Dorothy Day said (in her Loaves & Fishes), "He took the five loaves and the two fishes; and looking up to heaven, He blessed and brake and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes. And they did all eat and were filled.… Matthew 14:16-20."
There were hundreds of homeless who stood in line. We who served them stood over vast pots, cooking up a marvelous meal. The Catholic Workers were an unlikely bunch. Part anarchist, part communitarian Christians — like during the time of Jesus, when the church was dedicated to nonviolence — their iconoclastic ways make it a small miracle that they are able to live together, serve the poor, and keep a monthly paper. The anarchism and communitarianism was of a strange sort, inspired by cofounder Peter Maurin, who wrote, "The best kind of government is self-government. The best kind of organization is self-organization." Though the Catholic Worker desired governments to help, they believed that the people should do the works of mercy themselves.
Then Christmas is doing the right thing for the wrong reason? The loaves and fishes were not simply the feeding of the hungry who were without food; it was a provision of faith for the spiritually poor. So, there were strings attached. There are always strings attached.
Like "Faith," "Hope," "Peace," "Joy," or "Love". Replaced by the words, "Bologna," or "Salami," or "Ham," or "Liverwurst," or "Turkey," some of the strings are cut. Ladles of soup handed out in June or March or September snips even more strings. One line that Maurin could have added in his "Case for Utopia":
Everyone would be enlightened
if nobody tried to enlighten others,
and nobody would be ignorant
if everyone admitted their ignorance.
Think of how many strings that would disappear! People seldom need a message, no matter whether they might think they do. Sometimes people just need a sandwich and a bowl of soup. Even in August. Even from a faceless, nameless, quiet source with no message and no strings. Mary and Joeseph didn't wander into Bethlehem looking for spiritual enlightenment, they simply needed a place to have a child. They were given use of a manger and, as I recall the story, the innkeeper set no conditions at all for its use.
There were no encouraging messages of enlightenment from anyone.
What happened to Christmas, since then? Too much doing the right thing for the wrong reason.
"Because as the man says, without God, nothing is forbidden. And conversely, nothing much is required either". God does not forbid. Conscience does. All humans have a conscience. I don't think belief in God determines whether or not you utilize it. On the other hand, I don't think a belief in God determines whether or not you aspire to be better. Inner strength is a greater asset than blind faith.
Bravo Refried and Ms Grant...extremely salient points
and I'll take liverwurst homeys
Merry Christmas!!!

The why it can't wasn't exactly something I've added to the definition... so for me the fact that Tohya can't manage to make his Battler personality show up it's a fair personality dead even if said dead doesn't depend by his will but it's due to his amnesia. In short, he didn't kill his Battler personality as it was done for Shannon and Kanon, his Battler personality merely died for other reasons.

Either the death of that personality comes from being murdered by the dominant personality or just "erasing" all of its data from the brain's disk, the personality is "killed". The cause of the death is irrelevant.
Of course, the problems this creates aren't that 'apples can also be oranges so Ryukishi can cheat', but the fact that we can't distinguish them. For example, what if Kinzo's composed and dignified personality is 'Kinzo'and the madman screaming 'Beatoriiicheeeee' is 'Goldsmith'? So Kinzo is already dead at the start of each game does not tell us whether 'Goldsmith' is also dead. The same can be said for 'Rosa' and the 'Black Witch', even 'Maria' and 'MARIA', I believe that's a more serious issue than twisting the rules to match the plot's needs.
Of course, with a bit of common common sense we can see which character is likely to have multiple personalities (Yasu/Tohya), the big problem is, there's so many of them in Umineko that it gets messy, so technically, no, we can't.
Then again that's just me.

The True Culprit
If Kinzo is dead, I can just say Kinzo passed on bis name to Yasu along with the headship, and is now Goldsmith, who is still physically alive.
That's what Renall and I are both complaining about. You can justify it however you want, but there's a slippery slope created here that makes all speculation about Umineko absolutely meaningless and futile.

So yes, the word 'dead' when applied to personality as a cheaper meaning than when applied to a body (because let's face it, even if there are cases of 'resurrection' after a physical death they can't be compared to the personality resurrection).
I'm displeased by how it work but it seems that's exactly how it was intended to work, at least for certain characters. Battler's death is more... permanent, yet this is probably just due to circumstances. If Battler's memory loss had lasted only few days and then he had recovered completely his memory, his Battler personality would have been dead for a few days only and then... resurrected.
There's to say the whole personality dead notion is introduced not in the real world but in the gameboard which obeys to rules that are different from the real world (in which Knox doesn't work, for example) and that we learn only later so maybe the idea is we aren't supposed to use human logic.
And no, I don't like it but I can't help but think that's how Umineko works.

What's is called when once you start looking for something, you'll see it? It's like you're seeing it because you want to see it or you expect to see it.
It's the reason why you can't really test to see if light is a wave or a particle... you do a test one way and light will act as a particle. You do another type of test and light will act as a wave.
I just wish I could remember what it was...

The True Culprit
We're saying that nothing makes Ryukishi's offered reasoning more valid than KnowNoMore's bullshit. It's a complete guessing game because Ryukishi has no rules that he himself does not contradict in Umineko...meaning the game is broken, and every answer is valid and there are no wrong answers.
You can just go with Ryukishi's explanation, if you don't mind that it's incomplete, poorly explained/demonstrated, and possibly even logically incoherent. Even if it wasn't any of those things, even if his answer was 'perfect', it still doesn't mean anything because Ryukishi invoked Death of the Author multiple times, meaning he willingly gave up his legitimacy as a creator and says 'your opinions are equivalent to mine own'.
Which is fine in of itself, except this is supposed to be a battle between us and him...and there's no answer key. And he has no faith in his own answer and seemingly no respect in the fanbase's.
The game's rules are broken, its themes are undermined by his own apparent cynicism (which I'm willing to give him a pass on due to the death of his best friend), and you leave the game entirely empty-handed. You can make up your own answer, but you could've done that WITHOUT reading Umineko all the way through. There is literally no pay off here, except one of pathos...which, again, he kind of undermines.
And this could've all been avoided if he didn't cheat in his own fucking novel like an amateur.

The reason you don't follow those explanations is because you're unsatisfied with them. You think those explanations are dumb so you create fanfiction, an alternate theory from the obvious one. Then you fill fake plotholes, that you created yourselves, because they don't fit with how your fanfiction works. You're not even open to the possibility that his solution could be true. And you get offended whenever someone brings up personality death. You create alternate theories and change it to things like "identity death" so it makes sense to you. When that's not what it is.
He didn't get rid of his creative rights and hand them over to you. He's saying "if you don't like my answer, and you think it's dumb, feel free to write your own, because you're going to do it anyway"
The answer still isn't any less obvious. The culprit is Yasu. Touya is Battler. And apparently Ange represents you, the reader.

The True Culprit
I didn't create the plot holes in Umineko, I merely noticed them. Such as the unaccounted for door in EP3's First Twilight, or the bringing up and unresolving of plot threads, such as Kumasawa's connection to Beatrice, or even just pointing out very wonky details, like the fact that there's no way for the stories we read to correspond to the forgeries Tohya wrote, and that there's no sensible reason to lock up the truth or for the Witch Hunters to stop speculating if they're denied the truth, or keep speculating even if the truth is revealed.
These plot holes exist. You can argue their significance, but you cannot argue their existence. Renall and I deliberately create outlandish counter-examples to demonstrate thought experiments, philosophical and ethical arguments, or to elaborate on points people are not getting, but that's entirely different from writing fanfiction and bitching about it not being validated.
If you're not going to address my actual arguments, points, and criticisms, and are instead going to attack my character, credibility, and honesty, then you can get the fuck out and not talk to me anymore, are we clear? I expected better of you, Judoh.
"Yasu did it." "Who's Yasu." "She's Shannon and Kanon simultaneously in a Split Personality thing and she wants Battler's cock." "Oh, okay."
If someone wants spoilers, they're going to get it. That's no reason to cop the fuck out of giving his story a proper ending where things are explained, and it definitely doesn't mean he should badmouth his readers and try and put off ignorance as a moral good.
If Ange represents the readers, he shouldn't be making assumptions of what we want and what will make us happy with the story. That just makes him a smug know-it-all.
I'll also point out that, again, Yasu is probably not the culprit, and even Ryukishi has admitted to that possibility himself. Even if she was, the final scenes bring up extreme doubt about what happened, implying that Yasu never put things into action. Don't tell us to think about what happened and then not reward that effort; that's just lazy.
When you challenge someone to a game, you don't take your ball and go home before the score is tallied.

There's a thought exercise that asks you to prove that Aragorn is wearing pants in Lord of the rings that can be applied here.
And those plot holes are insignificant. They're not addressed because they don't have to do with "core" of the story. Except in the case with episode 3, which was addressed outside of the novel.
These characters are given the most weight in the story for having personality death. It doesn't matter if it's possible to create a theory with another character. Because none of those character are actually being used that way in the story. There is no need to prove they're not. They're just not.
If the theory doesn't fit in the gaps of logic that just means it doesn't fit. The explanation you're leading people away from might be dumb, but at least it fits with what the story says, and doesn't go into unnecessary things.
And I may not like what he did. But I'm not insulted by it.

The True Culprit
The plot holes not being 'core' are irrelevant. They damage the suspension of disbelief in the narrative and undermine a lot of its core precepts. Like Renall put it very well, "Why the hell are miracles so special if they're all over the place?"
Umineko is a story that puts thematics over realism, and I'm cool with that. I don't even mind Shkanon at all, I've made this clear. But in many important ways Ryukishi bungles thematic information as well, which is even more true than the red.
The fact that he doesn't address these in the core isn't an excuse. That's just Ryukishi deciding "Fuck it, it's not important" and hoping no one calls him on it. That's a faux pas in the professional writing world.
You know, those of us who have editors.
The problem with that is not even the Red Truth can put a stop to this by the very nature of it, so there's no way to deny Personality Truth except author fiat with no basis in logic. Ryukishi has to just use "because I say so" without any concrete logic behind it.
Why is this bad? Because Umineko was a novel to understand his universe and the thought processes at work behind himself and the characters. Personality Death and it's implications (and why Ryukishi didn't mean certain implications) can only be understood in RETROSPECT.
He cheated.
If he really did intend for Death of the Author, I can forgive a lot more; but it also means he has much less authoritative weight about 'what really happened'.
So who killed everyone, and why, and how? Those are your three questions you have to answer for Umineko to be a suitable mystery. And he did advertise Umineko as a mystery, so it has to be judged by the standards of one, or, again, he's cheating and taking his ball to go home in order to have his cake and eat it too.
It boils down to two things:
1) Either Umineko is meant to be treated as a mystery, in which it is a failure by any literary standard, or
2) Umineko is not really a mystery, or the mystery is not important, then he has suffocated and harmed his true message by putting too much focus on the 'unimportant' mystery.
There is no middle ground, here. It is a binary switch. There's nothing wrong with liking Umineko despite it's flaws; I still love the shit out of it and re-read it every few months. But stop pretending these flaws don't exist.

A fallacy is incorrect argumentation in logic and rhetoric resulting in a lack of validity
Informal fallacies of deductive reasoning contain a fundamental disconnect between the premises and the conclusion that renders the argument invalid.
A well defined formal fallacy, logical fallacy or deductive fallacy, is typically called an invalid argument
Now since the issue here clearly comes from your assumption that "formally valid" = "valid logic" or "Lacking persuasive power" = "still valid" I want you to find me a single case where it is said that a "logical fallacy" can be defined as a "valid logic" and not "valid in its form but..."

Sigh, to summarise:
Re cause of amnesia:
Tohya had both drowned recently (though how the doctor knew this was dubious) AND been hit by a car, the doctor can't know which caused his amnesia because he can't prove temporality of which came first.
Re personality death and Kinzo:
Ryu defined personality death as meaning "never to act again", assuming that applies to all games, then it is valid in my opinions as a form of death ONLY if the characters are viewed as truly separate (and I believe that Ryu intended them to be, whether that is valid or not) and it was proved that personality exists. Kanon was known by Battler to be a thing, and Kinzo was never proved separate to Goldsmith. He was also never shown to have a body which acted after his declared death in any proven fashion.
As for resurrection with magic:
I always assumed they were either lying about it, or someone was just pretending. If Kanon truly is separate from Shannon or Yasu, even the best impersonation is not truly him. I can paint a forgery of a painting on the same canvas, and it can be impossible to distinguish them, but it is still a forgery. This is only a valid move in Umineko because if I declare in red "This painting is destroyed" and then show it to you, you have the ability to know something is up. Besides which she never even had to look like Kanon, because blind people have no resistance to magic (I wonder if you can say in that game she stayed with Jessica until the bomb went off)
As for Evatrice being a valid example of a proven personality:
Yeah she had a lot of development, but by all reliable perspective she never actually existed. She was a fantasy, and therefore is not a valid part of this argument.
As for Aura's comment that Umineko leaves us empty handed:
It may be because I came after the end of the series, so approached solving it quite casually and didn't have months to agonise over it, and I am sure we all love parts of it, I mean we are here, but even from a mystery standpoint it didn't leave us empty handed. Yes it was far from perfect, and had many possible mistakes (plot holes is dubious as besides one retconned door the mysteries are still solvable without the plot being completely derailed) but you could reason the gameboards at least with reasonable accuracy, and that sure was fun. If anything I think you are wrong, in that there was a third option: Ryu wanted to tell a story and have a mystery, but should have been more clear about which parts were and weren't solvable. For me (and this is just opinion) part of the point was while you could solve the boards, and could work out some information for the prime world, that you can't solve the real world.
After all, even the games said that the prime information was just given to help you solve the gameboards.

Also, and I just have to keep pointing this out: You can't define personality death as a personality "never acting again" or never being able to act again, because in literally every instance we have of personality death it's possible for a personality to come back and they do come back. If you can (and do!) come back, your personality isn't really dead. Dead things don't come back to life. Calling it "death" is cheapening death. "Death" is when Shannon kills her body. Shannon personality-dying is just going to sleep. At best, she's dormant and could return under some circumstances, but may not; when she shoots herself in the forehead, she's D-E-A-D. There is a difference, so it's unfair to describe both as the same thing.
And it's doubly unfair to go to lengths to describe (inadequately) how Shannon/Kanon/Beatrice functions and when and how it is personality-alive or personality-dead, and then turn around and say "and also if a person gets amnesia, their original personality is dead too, even if their memories could come back and do." It's the same thing; Tohya may well be a distinct personality from Battler, but Battler isn't dead. Tohya describes his relationship with Battler's memories as if to suggest that Battler is dormant within him, not that Battler is an external force imposing himself upon Tohya. If Battler is dormant, and parts of him can resurface, and merely talking about things only Battler would remember cause Tohya psychological distress (he doesn't remember Rokkenjima on Oct. 5 1986, so it shouldn't harm him in any way), Battler is still there. If he's still there, and still capable of influencing Tohya, then he isn't dead.
He might not be fully alive either, but he isn't dead. We need to use... you know... a word other than dead to describe it. But if we do that, we can't call someone dead in red. And that's ultimately the sole reason Ryukishi did say "dead:" to cheat. He could use other, better words to describe Shkanon's dormancy or Battler's amnesia, but doing so would force him to not say "dead" and give away the game. That doesn't justify misusing a word for dramatic license, and believe you me I give dramatic license a lot of leeway.
...How can you distinguish Kanon from an individual who looks, acts, and behaves exactly like Kanon, when Kanon has no individualized self to begin with? What is the difference between "Kanon" and "Beatrice dressed as Kanon using Kanon's voice," particularly when the audience has no clear way of knowing one from the other? Before you go so far as to try to counter "Well Kanon behaves differently from Beatrice-Kanon sometimes," bear in mind that I could always argue that Kanon never exists and Beatrice-Kanon just sometimes behaves differently to avoid suspicion. There's no independently verifiable way to know the difference.
In the Jessica example, it isn't actually possible for Jessica to distinguish between Kanon and not-Kanon. I would argue, then, that in this case there is no distinction. Ergo, Kanon did in fact return, because Kanon is nothing more than an arbitrary social construct whose existence is solely based on perception of his existence. If one believes Kanon is present, Kanon is present. So again, it's wrong to say "Kanon can never come back to life" when in fact he does. If you turn around and say "Well it's somebody else acting exactly like Kanon under the perceptive parameters Jessica has available to her to tell that sort of thing, and the two just happen to be exactly the same but are distinguishable," I'm going to laugh at you, because there's no goddamn difference.
If you mean "was seen by Battler," you're not really making a point here because absence of evidence to a reliable perspective is not evidence of absence; that is to say, Battler's perspective alone cannot prove Shannon and Kanon are the same person, only that we can't say they're different people. However, there is other evidence which supports that conclusion and we have to supplement the one with the other.
Likewise, we can't prove that a potentially criminal personality of Eva doesn't exist because Battler never saw her (except it's possible he did see that personality at the end when she shoots him, y'know), but we have evidence of all these bodies piling up and the narrative presents Eva with motive and opportunity to commit those crimes. We thus can theorize the existence of a "culprit Eva," even if it's possible that she didn't do it. In that sense, the possibility of an Eva-Beatrice is sufficient to create an alternate personality we could discuss in red, at least theoretically.

However that goes both ways, you can't really tell that there isn't a plot hole or more.
I tend to think there are a few plot holes given my understanding of the story, which of course someone could counter with some kind of theory. But since I don't recognize those theories as true and actually intended by the author, the plot holes still exist in my opinion.

I don't think the story has that many plot holes. It just has plot problems.
A plot hole is "Ryukishi forgot there's another door to the basement in ep3," which was fixed in the anime and manga. Forgetting a plot thread exists is not technically a plot hole, it's just bad writing. It might be a plot hole if something should have happened based on earlier information that just didn't, but that doesn't mean every dangling plot thread causes that degree of problem.

Voyage through Vietnam and Cambodia, discovering the countries' famous cuisine.
Chop, slice and chomp your way through the diverse flavours of South East Asia on this mouthwatering Real Food Adventure from Vietnam to Cambodia. From pho and ancient buildings in Hanoi to banh khoai and imperial citadels in Hue, banh xeo in the lantern-lit streets of Hoi An to banh canh in the pulsating markets of Ho Chi Minh City, become intimately acquainted with Vietnam's cuisine and its tightly woven place within its culture. Then cross into Cambodia where – with a delicate balancing of peppers and by drawing influence from French and Thai cooking – the nation has created an unpretentious but delectable cuisine all its own. Combined with tours of the spectacular Angkor Wat Temple complex, homestays in the Mekong and an overnight cruise around Halong Bay, this really is a Real Food Adventure with the lot!
Get the lowdown on north, central and southern Vietnamese cooking with some of the country's leading experts
A street food tour of Hanoi takes you to the best spots in town to sample northern specialties like pho, bun cha and the golden-yellow xoi xeo (sticky rice with mung bean and fried onion)
Get around the romantic riverside town of Hue in true local style – on the back of a motorcycle
With two nights in Hoi An, there's plenty of time to take in magic of this standout destination. Take a cooking class, cycle through herb gardens and be dazzled by the Ancient Town
The Vietnamese people are some of the most welcoming in the world. A homestay on the Mekong Delta allows you to experience their hospitality, learn their kitchen secrets and get an insight into rural life
No trip to Vietnam is complete without some history lessons. Visit the Imperial Citadel in Hue and the War Remnants Museum in Ho Chi Minh City
Encounter Cambodia's vibrant culinary scene, the incredible tastes and smells and Khmer food that are often overshadowed by neighbouring Vietnam and Thailand
Get an insight into Cambodian cuisine with a visit to famous pepper plantations outside of Kampot, and taste the best pepper in the world
A homestay in the village of Banteay Chhmar puts you right in the heart of rural life in Cambodia
Dine on local favourites by torchlight in the atmospheric grounds of a ruined Angkorian temple
'Eat for a cause' with dinner at a Phnom Penh restaurant that not only serves delicious modern Cambodian cooking, but helps the local youth too
Select your own crab and have it cooked up fresh while you look out across the Gulf of Thailand at the Kep Crab market
This trip aims to give you an exciting, diverse and well-rounded experience of a country's cuisine. While we endeavour to cater for specific dietary requirements, some meals and food activities are set in advance and may be difficult to adjust. Please be aware that in many countries dietary restrictions are not common or well understood. If you have dietary requirements, simply contact your agent at the time of booking for further information on how this may impact on your ability to take part in included activities and meals. Come with an open mind and open mouth, and you won't be disappointed!
The overnight train from Hanoi to Hue takes around 12 hours. While conditions may not be to the standard you are used to, this is a great chance to see the country from another angle and wake up in a new, exciting destination.
Facilities at the Mekong Delta homestay are quite basic. But an authentic, heart-warming experience of local Mekong life should more than make up for the lack of creature comforts.
Confidence on a bicycle is great, but not absolutely essential. If you would rather not participate in the cycling tour of Hoi An's Tra Que Village, you can explore the local market on foot instead.
This trip involves a long day of driving from Phnom Penh to Battambang. Some patience will go a long way towards your enjoyment here. Sit back, relax, watch the scenery go by, and embrace travelling like a local.
The facilities at your homestay in Banteay Chhmar are simple – a thin mattress on the floor, with pillow provided and mosquito net provided. Bathroom facilities at homestay can be shared and often consist of an Asian style squat toilet. However, the rewards of such an authentic local experience are immeasurable.
This itinerary is valid for departures from 01 January 2018 to 31 December 2018. View the itinerary for departures between 01 January 2019 - 31 December 2019
Please provide your full name as per passport (including middle names on your passport), and passport number at time of booking. These details are required for the internal flight and train tickets. Please check your booking information exactly matches your passport. Ticketing fees may apply for amendments within 45 days of departure, and in some cases you will be required to cover the cost of issuing a new ticket.
A single supplement is available on this trip with exception of Day 3 (Halong Bay), Day 4 (Overnight Train), Day 10 (Homestay) and Day 18 (Homestay).
Our Real Food Adventure Vietnam & Cambodia trips score an average of 4 out of 5 based on 1 review in the last year.
If you like south East Asian food then this trip will suit you. But be warned, you'll go home fatter!

Exploring Underwater Of Pari Island
"Pari island's western coasts include five smaller islands, namely: Gudus Island (Pulau Gudus), Middle Island (Pulau Tengah), Beautiful Bird Island (Pulau Burung Indah), Partnership Island (Pulau Kongsi) and Rat Island (Pulau Tikus).
The island-clustered lagoon that promises panoramic views is best explored by snorkeling or simply walking along the coasts of clean, white sandy beaches."
One of the many little spots of paradise just a stone's throw away from the bustling metropolitan capital, Jakarta, Pari Island is quite different from the more popular islands of Pramuka and Tidung. Although not as popular a tourist destination, to a small community of "executive fishermen" it is one of the best fishing spots in the Thousand islands, otherwise known as Pulau Seribu. Tourists are sparse here, so if tranquility & peace is what you seek, you can be sure to find it here.
You will never tire of the beach sceneries on Pari Island. Swimming, diving or even snorkeling to catch a glimpse of the pretty coral beneath the warm waters is not to be missed. Make your way to Pantai Pasir Perawan (or Virgin Beach, so named because the early pioneers here had to work very hard to open the route to get there the first time) and feel the warm white sand between your toes. Here the sea breeze blows warmly and sends mild waves along the shores for children and even grown-ups to have plenty of fun!
Volleyball and futsal fields are available on the beach including a bamboo shelter with seats, a rowboat for paddling along the coast, and rubber tubes to play with in the water. At sunset, enjoy ice-cold coconut water as the warm evening sea breeze caresses and refreshes you : a sure remedy for stress and a tired mind.
Soft white sand, lovely breeze, calm waves and gentle ripples will all make you want to linger a little longer to more fully partake of the beauty of this beach.
Have fun cycling along the scenic coasts, exchanging smiles with the islanders as you ride by. The population on Pari Island however, is less dense compared with Pramuka and Tidung Islands, and the environment pleasantly clean and tidy.
Besides the beaches and exploring underwater, you can also learn about and participate in seaweed cultivation. At the southern tip and to the west lies the Indonesian Institute of Sciences' Oceanographic Development Centre (LIPI, Lembaga Ilmu Pengetahuan Indonesia). Here you may plant mangrove or ketapang trees, or explore the LIPI-owned laboratory for underwater research and marine life such as sharks, rayfish, seaweed and other varieties of animal and plant species found in the waters of Pari Island and its surroundings. Seaweed is the main commodity that is successfully cultivated in the waters around Pari Island today.
How the Island got its name:
The first family who fled Tangerang to escape forced labour for the Colonial Dutch, arrived on this remote uninhabited island and saw a large number of ray fish in the waters and thus, named their new home Pulau Pari or Rayfish Island.
Watch the video about Jakarta:
There are no hotels or resorts available. The homes of the island residents (homestay) is the only option here. There is electricity on the island now.
Pari Island's main beach might not be flattering. But try the "Virgin Beach" (Pantai Pasir Perawan) for the sunrise and water fun.
BBQ on the beach on a breezy night is unforgettable. Other water activities you will want to schedule are : Snorkeling, playing on the long sandy beach, fishing, sightseeing by bicycle, see crab and coral rehabilitation, and seaweed cultivation. Snorkeling is allowed only near the dock — and even there the waves are quite big for this particular activity. Here, diving may be a better option.
Pari Island is not very large. Exploration may take about an hour or so. The road on the island is a neat and clean blend of rock and sand blocks. To get around, rent a bicycle from a vendor on the roadside for just Rp 15,000 per hour or Rp 30,000 for the day.
Catch an International Flight to Jakarta's Soekarno-Hatta International Airport from any city around the world.
From Jakarta to Pari Island in the Thousand Islands Archipelago, there are 3 ports of departure by sea to choose from :
- The shortest boat ride is from Muara Saban Cituis Port, Tangerang, with a travel time of approximately 1 to 1 ½ hours
- The longest boat ride is from Muara Angke Port by a wooden fishing boat with a capacity of 100 to 120 people, and takes about 1 ½ or 2 hours of travel. A Return Ticket costs about Rp. 60,000 to 70,000, – Be there by 6:00a.m. to catch the first boat. The address: Muara Angke Port, Mandala Bahari Street, Pluit, Penjaringan, North Jakarta.
- There are only 2 departures from Marina Jaya, Ancol – at 08.00am and 12 noon. And returns at 14.00pm from Pari island. Sea Leader Marine Luxury Yacht charter provides rental in the Thousand Islands' Marine National Park. Contact his office at Marina Port, Ancol.
Remember to bring mosquito repellent.
If you are someone who enjoys the outdoors like fishing, photography and nature, or just a secluded, relaxing and quiet atmosphere, then Pari Island is the place for you.
There are regulations that prohibit garbage entering the island from outside. Visitors to Pari Island are required to take with them any garbage accumulated during their visit here! So be sure to bring with you a garbage bag or bags large enough to hold any default garbage.

Nursing, business named in top graduate programs in online education
By Crystal Baity
ECU News Services
GREENVILLE, N.C. (Jan. 15, 2013) — Two graduate programs at East Carolina University rank among the best nationally in online education in a listing released today by U.S. News & World Report.
The ECU College of Nursing ranked 10 out of 72 master's or doctorate of nursing practice programs in the country. The online Master of Business Administration program in the College of Business ranked 40 out of 148 graduate business programs. The complete listing of online education programs can be viewed at
U.S. News ranked online master's degree programs in business, engineering, nursing, education and computer information technology on criteria including student engagement, faculty credentials and training, admissions selectivity and student services and technology.
Online degrees have been growing in popularity the past 10 years driven in part by a competitive job market and stagnant economy, according to U.S. News.
ECU's College of Nursing has been consistently named by U.S. News as one of the largest distance education programs in the country since 2004. The current rankings assess quality categories over size.
"Our investment in distance education allows us to connect our students to campus using virtual clinics and to nursing scholars around the world through streaming video and conferencing technology," said Dr. Sylvia Brown, dean of the ECU College of Nursing. "The beauty of our graduate distance education strategy is that students, who are all registered nurses, can fill vital nursing positions while pursuing their graduate degrees."
Nursing offers seven online options in the master's of science nursing program: adult-gerontology nurse practitioner, clinical nurse specialist, family nurse practitioner, neonatal nurse practitioner, nursing education, nursing leadership and nurse midwifery. Of 704 total students enrolled in the MSN program, 606 - or 86 percent - are distance education students.
The online program in the College of Business has grown from a single course offering in 1998 to undergraduate and graduate degrees in several concentrations. It is the largest online MBA program in the UNC system.
Of 797 total students enrolled in the MBA program last fall, 629 - or 79 percent - were distance education students.
All required courses are available online, so MBA students can earn a degree without having to come to campus.
"The College of Business is very proud to rank among the top nationally in online education for the second year in a row," said Dr. Stan Eakins, dean of the College of Business. "Whether online or in the classroom, our MBA program continues to maintain high standards in preparing the next generation of leaders. There is no higher level of accomplishment for us than students who value their educational experience, benefit directly from it, and go on to make a difference in their communities."

North Hampton woman with children in car faces aggravated DWI chargeBy GRETYL MACALASTER
Union Leader Correspondent
March 26. 2013 6:48PM
NEWMARKET - A North Hampton woman arrested for aggravated driving while intoxicated on Route 108 had two children, 8 and 13, in the vehicle, police said.
Carrie Towne, 34, of the Pine Haven Motel was arrested around 6 p.m. Friday after a concerned citizen reported her erratic driving, Newmarket Police Lt. Kyle True said Tuesday.
A police officer followed Towne for quite a distance before stopping her, True said. The officer conducted a roadside conversation with Towne before requesting she perform a series of field sobriety tests, which she failed, True said.
True said the two children in the car were known to Towne; he would not say if they are Towne's children.
They were taken into protective custody and later released to a sober adult.
Towne was charged with aggravated driving while intoxicated as a result of having the children in the car. She was released on $1,500 personal recognizance bail and is scheduled to appear in the 10th Circuit Court, Brentwood Division, on May 7 for arraignment.

Looking At Security Theater Through The Lens Of The Utøya Massacre
from the tragedy dept
Benjamin Franklin famously said, that "a people who gives up its freedom to gain a little security will lose both and deserve neither". But now that it has been shown in the most gruesome, in-your-face way that we don't even gain a little security by giving up these freedoms, then why are we doing so?As with past tragedies such as this one, we're already seeing some evidence that some people are using this tragedy as an excuse to ratchet up security theater. Editorials bemoaning the openness in Norway quickly appeared, and officials in other countries, such as the Philippines and Australia, have already used the tragedy to talk about changing security laws and even how such laws could prevent similar incidents from happening there. Of course, some of the laws they're talking about were already in place in Norway.
Norwegian Prime Minister Stoltenberg is absolutely right when he says we must fight antidemocratic lunacy with more democracy and more humanity. His quote from one of the young on Utøya, "if one man can show so much hate, imagine how much love we all can show together", is one of the most statemanworthy I have seen in my entire life. Both when it came from the young surviving lady right off the island, and from Stoltenberg on repeating it in his official capacity.
It brings me to tears, and to something more important: hope.
Thankfully, as Falkvinge noted at the end of his story, Norwegian politicians (so far) appear to be going in the other direction, noting how the response to such a cowardly (and yes, such a massacre is cowardly) and fear-inducing act is not more cowardice and fear, but openness and love. Hopefully those views continue to predominate in Norway. Giving in to such acts by increasing the culture of fear is actually what killers like Anders Breivik want.

Your Self Employed Hidden Paycheck – How to Pay Yourself More with Less (Part 1)
As self employed, we're pulled in two directions. We want better income from being self employed, yet we want our self employed taxes to be as low as practical. We want our family to benefit from having a better income and all the luxuries it can buy: travel, TVs, cell phones, dining out, and more. But the more dollars in your paycheck, the more self employed taxes you pay.
Fortunately there are common, regular and necessary expenses in your business that have direct benefit to your family. The average employee must pay for all these items AFTER he gets his paycheck. Being self employed, you can count these items against your business and pay for them BEFORE you take your paycheck. Your self employed income will seem lower but your family gets "paid" in the stuff the business pays for. This, in turn, builds your hidden paycheck.
This hidden paycheck is part of what makes being self employed worth the effort. Many items in our daily lives are also used for business. For the purposes of tax reporting, we get to take those expenses against the business because they are necessary for running the business. Depending on your business, this adds up to a hidden paycheck of $15,000 to $25,000 a year.
Your CPA can help you figure out exactly which costs fall into the various buckets and where to report them on your tax forms. Let's go over some examples. Better income from your hidden paycheck comes from:
I'll go into detail in part 2, here are just some totals. Last year, my hidden paycheck amounted to $23,606. I'll show you how I got there in Your Self Employed Hidden Paycheck – Little Things Add Up (Part 2)
Here are the categories I used:
Self employed health insurance

Ingredients (8" x 8"):
400g Butter
150g Sugar
10 Egg Yolks
1 tsp Durian Essence
1 cup Durian Puree (+/-)
60ml Milk
200g All-Purpose Flour
50g Corn Flour
7 Egg Whites
150g Sugar
- Grease and line the bottom of a 8" x 8" baking pan. Preheat oven to 200degC (upper heat only).
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light. Add in egg yolks and continue to cream until smooth and fluffy.
- Add in durian essence, puree and milk, and stir until well blended. Sift and fold in flours until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, beat egg whites until foamy then add in sugar gradually while beating. Continue to beat until stiff. Stir it into the batter and mix until well combined.
- Spoon about 100g of the batter into the baking pan and spread it evenly. Place it in the middle of the oven and bake until golden brown.
- Remove it from the oven, use a fork to prick some holes on the cake. Then spoon another 100g of the batter onto the baked layer and spread evenly. Bake until golden brown. Repeat this step until all of the batter is used up.
- Remove the cake from oven, invert and cool on rack.
Note: I scaled down this recipe to 8 yolks ( I had only 8 eggs left) so my cake was thinner than it should be.

When Cole Davis founded Keystone RV in 1996 his vision was clear: Build a quality RV loaded with features priced thousands less than other RVs on the market. To accomplish his goal, Cole would recruit and build a strong team, focus on keeping overhead low, and empower the people closest to the customer to make decisions.
Within a few short months after opening the doors, Keystone produced its very first camper. Delivering big on quality, features and value, the public fell in love with it. A star was born! As the appetite for the camper increased, new Keystone models were added to satisfy growing customer demand. Along with this tremendous growth came the need for expanded production. To meet this need more manufacturing plants were built and staffed.
From new floor plan designs to patented inventions, Keystone leads the way in product innovation. One reason is our mission to stay close to the customer. When talking with campers or visiting dealerships, our sales, product development, and service teams, are always looking for ways to improve the camping experience. And we don't stop there.
Every member of the Keystone family is encouraged to contribute to making our campers absolutely the best possible. Through something we call Kamp Keystone, our employees camp free of charge at local campgrounds in the Keystone trailers we supply. Each year hundreds of our production workers, administrative staff and service team enjoy a day (or a week) at Kamp Keystone. Their evaluation of the experience and the feedback they provide results in continued product improvements. Ask us if we use our RVs...the answer is YES!

BRISTOL, Tenn. - King College never trailed Saturday as the 3-pointers fell early and often in the Tornado's 94-63 win over Emory & Henry (Va.) College. In all seven Tornado players connected from beyond the arc in the victory.
King, now at 6-6 on the season, came out and hit 10 three pointers in the first half in 13 attempts (76.9 percent). In the final 20 minutes the Tornado went 5-for-12 (41.7 percent) from long range to finish the contest 15-for-25 (60.0 percent). Overall King was 32-for-57 (56.1 percent).
Five of the long-range shots came from freshman Michael Fortune (Beckley, W.Va.) in six attempts. He went onto finish with 19 points along with three assists.
Jason Seymore (Powell, Tenn.), Brian Hewitt (Lexington, Ky.) and Mark Dockery (Nickelsville, Va.) all scored 16 points apiece.
The Tornado scored the first four points of the game and then Emory & Henry got within two, 10-8, at the 3:38 mark. From there King went on a 10-2 run to enjoy a double-digit lead for the first time. The lead was cut to nine, 21-12, with 12:43 on the clock and back-to-back three pointers from Fortune and Eddie Piccinini (Orlando, Fla.) put the game out of reach. King led by 20 or more for the final 7:30 of the first half as the score after 20 minutes was 56-27.
It took King 2:30 into the second half to make the advantage 30, 62-32. After that King led by as many as 34, but the difference never got under 23 for the rest of the night.
Emory & Henry was led by Josh Cunningham with 21 points, all from beyond the 3-point line. Terrance Grigg added 15 points.
King forced 25 turnovers and used those for 29 points. Emory & Henry scored 11 points off 11 King turnovers. The Tornado had one more rebound, 31-30, than the Wasps.
Next on the schedule for the Tornado squad is a trip to play NCAA Division I member UNC-Asheville Thursday. The game will tip off at 7 p.m.
