More Pacific Island countries are climbing aboard the 'Mua: Guided by Nature' voyage to help convey the 'one Pacific voice' to the world, with the number of traditional voyaging canoes sailing from the Pacific to Sydney for the IUCN World Parks Congress 2014 rapidly growing into a fleet.
The 'one Pacific voice' speaks about the importance of the region's large oceans and unique island spaces, and their global value in a changing climate. It draws attention to the stand made by many Pacific Island leaders who have pledged millions of square kilometres toward protecting marine areas, while Pacific Island communities drive local action to secure and sustain livelihoods.
Conveying this 'one Pacific voice' to the IUCN World Parks Congress 2014 is critical, as the Congress – the landmark global forum on protected areas, held once every ten years – is being held in Oceania for the first time. The Congress provides the opportunity to amplify the region's call for an extraordinary commitment from the global community to manage the oceans for the benefit of all, and to demand greater action from the rest of the world to combat climate change.
IUCN Oceania formally announces the voyage, which will be known as 'Mua: Guided by Nature' – with 'Mua' simultaneously meaning to journey or travel in a certain direction, and also referring to the bow of a canoe. Voyaging societies from Cook Islands, New Zealand, Samoa and Tonga have now joined Fiji in signing memorandums of understanding with IUCN Oceania to collaborate efforts and help make the voyage to Sydney a success.
"It's our message – that the Pacific Islands and our vast ocean resources are an important natural asset in a climate-changing world – and we need to take extraordinary measures to manage and protect what we have left" says Taholo Kami, Regional Director of IUCN Oceania.
The formal announcement of the 'Mua' voyage occurs as part of the 2nd International Sustainable Sea Transport Talanoa, which is being held at the University of the South Pacific in Suva, Fiji, from Monday 14 to Friday 18 July.
The first voyaging canoe will start sailing in mid-September, travelling from Cook Islands via Samoa, Fiji, Vanuatu and the eastern coastline of Australia, progressively joining with the other canoes. The fleet will have the world's attention as it sails into Sydney Harbour on
12 November for the opening of the IUCN World Parks Congress 2014.

Here's the publishers blurb
Comprised of interviews with 100 key players from around the world, Beyond the Street offers a comprehensive examination of street and urban art. Insiders Patrick Nguyen and Stuart Mackenzie question each of their subjects on every conceivable aspect of the genre – from the past to the future, from the artists' ideals to their daily lives, from working in complete freedom to working in the art and commercial worlds. The thought-provoking range of answers make the 400-page book an incomparably extensive source of direct, unfiltered information.
Beyond the Street features interviews with leading artists such as Shepard Fairey, Swoon, and Os Gemeos. The book also offers the views of representatives of the most important sales outlets for street art including Jeffrey Deitch and Jonathan LeVine Gallery. In addition, curators from auction houses such as Christie's and Phillips de Pury comment on the development of street art in a classical art context. Interviews with key commentators, collectors, and enthusiasts such as Martha Cooper, Wooster Collective, and Agnes B. provide further insight. Brought together, these separate and distinct perspectives create a uniquely authentic collective portrait of street and urban art that is captivating, informative, and entertaining.
Each interview in Beyond the Street is richly illustrated with photographs of an inspiring collection of work. In addition to presenting outdoor work, the book also features the pieces that the artists have created for exhibitions and other indoor spaces. The commercial aspect of the street art movement is rigorously documented for the first time. Among the photographs featured are a number of images of the artists' studios or the artists themselves at work, providing a rare glimpse into their methods and environments.

Dolphin Funeral Videos
Two videos showing a bottlenose dolphin carrying a dead calf with other dolphins nearby, in what some said resembled a funeral, are being widely shared and have prompted discussion about whether marine mammals grieve. The sad but touching event occurred Tuesday off Dana Point, California (videos and photo are posted below), and while this type of behavior is not unprecedented it's rarely witnessed in the wild.
"Many years ago at the mouth of Spruce Creek in Port Orange, Florida, my mother and father witnessed the still-birth of a dolphin," reads a comment beneath one website post about Tuesday's encounter, which involved passengers out of two Dana Point landings. "For over an hour the mother dolphin continued to push the stillborn baby to the surface for air before finally abandoning it."
On Facebook, experts chimed in to share what they've encountered involving killer whales, which are the planet's largest dolphins.
Susan MacKay of the nonprofit Whales and Dolphins BC, posted: "I can't help but also think of Northern Resident A12, who spent a full month circumnavigating Hanson Island (top of Johnstone Strait) calling to her son. For over a year, every time she came back to the area, she had a woeful call. Who says they don't grieve or have feelings?"
Dr. Robin Baird of the Cascadia Research Collective in Olympia, Washington, provided a link to a report about an orca cataloged as L72 and her 6-year-old son (L105) carrying and lifting a dead calf out of the water for more than six hours near San Juan Island.
It reads: "Most of the time the calf was not visible, but on occasion L72 would lift the calf out of the water when she was surfacing. When we were able to see the calf L72 appeared to either be pushing it in front of her balanced on her rostrum or would be carrying the calf on the top of her head. But the calf was negatively buoyant, so had probably not been dead for long.
"Although L105 was within 50 or 100 meters for most of the time, we did not see L105 interacting with the dead calf. Based on the size of the calf (approximately 6 feet to 7 feet) we suspect it was near-term but no way to know whether it was stillborn or born alive and died shortly afterward. Upon surfacing L72 would frequently appear to 'drop' the calf and both whales would stop and dive deep to recover it."
Dr. Astrid van Ginneken of the Center for Whale Research was said to have witnessed funeral-like behavior while in the polar circle above Norway. A male and female orca brought a dead calf, balanced on the male's snout, to a circle of nine other orcas, then left it there.
She wrote in True Killer Whale Stories: "Apparently, the whales were around the little calf and taking part in mutual activity of nudging the baby. We had the feeling we were witnessing something that seemed some sort of ritual."
Whether a ritual was occurring on Tuesday off Dana Point cannot be 100 percent confirmed, but for passengers and crew, it seemed to be the case. Experts contacted for this story said the calf appeared to have been dead for at least a few days.

There are all kinds of family stories. Some of the stories I remember best were about the crazy shenanigans of my parents and their siblings; it seems there was no scheme too wild, no prank too complicated, for them to dream up and try to pull off.
Then there were the stories that were about family relationships: feuds, disagreements, hurt feelings. You know, psychological stuff. Depending on who was telling the story, it could definitely take on the teller's biases.
And so it was with a story my mother used to tell about her mother.
My grandparents, Kirby Moore and Eula Floyd Moore, moved from the Lancaster area in Dallas County out to Baylor County in 1917 together with Eula's brother King David Floyd and his family. Eula and King had each inherited some money after the death of their mother, Angeline Matlock Floyd, and King and Kirby had decided the money should be used to buy cheap land in Baylor County. Serious settlement of Baylor County did not start until the 1880s and it has never been a populous county. The two main towns at that time were Seymour, the county seat, and Bomarton, near which the Floyds and Moores settled; today Bomarton is little more than a ghost town with some surrounding farms.
Baylor County must have seemed quite a desolate place to Grandma Eula, especially when compared with her home back in Lancaster. According to the story as I heard it related by my mother, Grandma would pine after her family, that is, she would talk about how much she missed them, and in darker moods would blame Grandpa Kirby for bringing her out to this forsaken place so far from home.
Now, my mother loved her father and did not care for it much when Grandma criticized him. And she told the following story she had heard about when Grandma had gone home to Lancaster for a visit: "They said that when she got home she didn't even take any notice of her mother or sisters; she just ran, bawling, straight to her Mammy and hugged her and cried." (I realized later that one item has to be inaccurate in this story; when Grandma went back, it would have to have been after 1917, and since her mother died in 1916, she wouldn't have been there.)
My grandmother Eula Amanda Floyd and her sister Dona Floyd; may have been taken around 1900
This story stuck in my mind for two reasons. One was that it indicated that the Floyd family had a bit of money. They did; more at some times (when speculation was going well) than at others (when speculation fell through and my great-grandfather Charles Floyd and his brother Alford were charged with fraud).
The other reason was that it was the first hint that there might have been some history of slave-holding in my grandmother's family.
Correspondence with a cousin on the Floyd side revealed some of the background to this story:
"Kitty Stevenson, ex-slave of James and Sarah Alcina Harris Taylor (Angie's [my great-grandmother Angeline Matlock Floyd's] aunt), was the midwife who delivered just about all kids in this area in the late 1800s. Her daughter Birdie was also a midwife who delivered [name of relative] in this house in 1907. [Cousin's name] just loved old Birdie and stayed at her house a lot of the time. Birdie was always ready to help if someone was sick and had a home remedy for just about everything. Am sure all the Floyd kids of their generation must have loved Kitty, too, probably did call her Mammy."
This cleared up a lot, but I was still curious and tried to see whether or not I could find Kitty and Bertie in the census. Based on what I found, I believe it is more likely that Birdie – or, as her name appears in the census, Bertie, was actually Kitty's granddaughter. Her father was Mack Stevenson/Stephenson, born December 1851 (according to the 1900 census) in Missouri, parents both born in Virginia (which is shown as Kittie's home state).

This family is living almost next door to Harvey J. and Sarah A. Taylor (and the Floyd family is also nearby). Mack's mother was born in Virginia, as was Kittie; I am guessing that she was his mother. He was not shown living with her on the 1880 census, but was old enough to have been out on his own by that time.

The Oscar Floyd family lives nearby.
I was not able to find Kitty/Kittie Stevenson/Stephenson on any census after 1880, although there was a Black Kittie Jackson, born ca 1820 in Virginia on the 1900 census for Dallas.
Like many stories concerning the Floyd family, this one definitely has an element of truth, but the details are a bit scrambled. When she was a child, Grandma Eula may have been attached to Kittie, but it is not likely that she had any sort of reunion with her after 1917. If she did have the emotional reunion as described by my mother, it would more likely have been with Bertie, who may have been a childhood friend/playmate, since she was born five years after my grandmother.
Since Kittie is shown living near the James Harvey and Sarah Alcena Harris Taylor family in 1880, it is possible that she had been a slave who was owned by the Taylor family. However, the states and years of birth of her children as shown on the 1880 census indicate that in the year 1863 she was still living in Missouri. I am not sure about the Taylors, but I believe that they moved to Texas from Kentucky in the 1850s.
The part of the story related by the cousin is supported by the proximity of the Mack Stevenson family to the Oscar Floyd family, and from this I gather the Floyds were close to Bertie. Based on some occasionally stormy family dynamics I have heard about in other stories, it may well have been true that what my grandmother missed most about living so far from Lancaster was someone she felt closer to than to her own sisters, and that person could have been Bertie.

The Dana Alliance for Brain Initiatives was born out of a three-day meeting at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory in 1992, in the early days of "The Decade of the Brain." There, 30 of the country's most eminent neuroscientists convened to debate the progress and promise of brain research. The meeting was organized by James D. Watson, Ph.D., Director of the Laboratory and Nobel laureate for his codiscovery of the structure of DNA, and the late David Mahoney, Chairman of the Dana Foundation. Their vision was to establish a group of vanguard neuroscientists who would commit themselves to translating the advances in brain research to the public, the ultimate beneficiary of these advances.
The assembled scientists debated how best to communicate the promise of neuroscience to the public in a way that would convey their knowledge and excitement. They were particularly convened about recent decreases in federal funding for neuroscience research at the very time such research was beginning to yield breakthrough treatments for some of the most devastating neurological disorders.
"People want to know what you can do for them," Mahoney (left) told the neuroscientists. "They want results that can benefit them." Only by convincing the public of the direct benefits of their work, Mahoney cautioned them, could they hope to receive the funding, public and private, that would speed vital work.
By the end of the Cold Spring Harbor meeting, the group had vowed to change the landscape of public support for brain research. They developed a "Declaration of Objectives" setting forth 10 research goals that were both meaningful to the public and considered achievable by the end of the 1990's. These goals guided the Alliance's activities of the next several years.
1. The identification of the genes that are defective in familial Alzheimer's and Huntington's diseases.
2. The identification of the genes responsible for manic-depressive illness.
3. The development of new medications and therapeutic strategies to reduce nerve cell death and enhance recovery of function after strokes and other forms of brain injury.
4. The development of new drugs and other measures to alleviate the effects of multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, motor neuron disease (e.g., ALS, or Lou Gehrig's disease), Parkinson's disease, and epilepsy.
5. The identification of new treatments to promote nerve regeneration following spinal cord and peripheral nerve injury.
6. The development of new and more effective treatments for manic-depressive illness, anxiety disorders, and forms of schizophrenia that at present resist treatment.
7. The discovery, testing, and application of agents that will block the action of cocaine and other addictive substances.
8. The development of new treatments for pain associated with cancer, arthritis, migraine headaches, and other debilitating diseases.
9. The identification of the genes that cause hereditary deafness and blindness.
10. The elucidating of the neuronal mechanisms involved in learning and memory.
From those founding members, the Dana Alliance has grown to a global organization of more than 600 members, including 15 Nobel laureates. Its members, all leaders in their field, represent a broad range of neuroscience disciplines, including neurology, neurobiology, neuropsychology, cognitive neuroscience, neuroimmunology, and virtually every subspecialty within neuroscience. Today, the Alliance is considered one of the most effective and respected forces in communicating science.
In 1997, leading scientific colleagues in Europe sought to make the mission global. After discussions in Europe with Mr. Mahoney and Dana director William Safire, the European Dana Alliance for the Brain (EDAB) was created. EDAB's active membership has taken the message about the promise of brain research worldwide, firmly establishing that organization as another important international force in advocacy for brain science.

Although Carrie Underwood won top honors at the 2013 CMT Music Awards , her performance and thoughts were aimed at those still impacted by the recent tornadoes that ripped through Moore, Okla.
"I'm kind of in a haze right now," she told CMT Radio Live 's Cody Alan after her video of the year win for "Blown Away." "This is pretty cool. I have the most awesome fans in the world."
In a tribute to the tornado victims, the Oklahoma native sang her latest single, "See You Again," with backing by a choir from Nashville's Christ Church. The performance closed with the American Red Cross logo in a call to help those impacted by the storm.
Underwood has firsthand knowledge of the challenges faced by residents in the Oklahoma City area.
"I've heard some really incredible stories," she said. "I actually have family that lives in Moore and was in the thick of it. They managed to walk away with cuts and bruises, and that was about that. But, I mean, there's so many people who are going to have to be putting their lives together.
"My main thought process behind tonight was just that people keep thinking about it and keep praying for them and keep reaching out and keep helping because when things like that happen, they're big news for a couple of days, and then everybody moves on to something else. It's going to take a really long time for these wonderful people to put their lives back together again. Keep helping, everybody. I'll do my part. Hopefully, everybody else will do theirs, too."
When Alan noted that Underwood has already donated $1 million from her latest tour to finance disaster relief efforts in Oklahoma, she quickly downplayed the gesture.
"You can always do more," she said. "You can always do something."

Photoshop Move Bridge Button And Remove Bridge Reference From Photoshop Menu
I would prefer to remove Adobe Bridge from my machine all together but I haven't found a solid way to accomplish that task yet so I settled for moving the Bridge button that was in the top left corner and removing the reference to Bridge in the File menu. My issue was that many times I would accidentally click on the Adobe Bridge button and have to wait until Bridge fully launched and then close it before I could continue. Use the information below to accomplish minimizing the impact of Bridge on your Photoshop use.Details

But it wouldn't receive my security code in the normal way — apparently because the method of entering numbers is different once you activate the VoiceOver feature. You can interact with Siri without entering the code, but Siri would not respond to multiple different efforts at telling it to turn off VoiceOver. I'd used my laptop to search and figure out that the thing that was driving me nuts was called VoiceOver. I had many interactions with Siri like:
I do not want to hear VoiceOver.I worried that some extravagant virus had taken over iPhone, coopting Siri and who know what else. Why didn't Siri understand references to a feature within the iPhone software? Siri was acting insolent and obtuse, taunting me!
If you don't want it, don't want it.
Eventually, using the laptop, I found instructions about how to use iTunes on the laptop screen to turn off VoiceOver in the iPhone. But, man, that was nuts.
What if I had been out with my iPhone without my laptop? What would I have done? And VoiceOver was making noise, including saying the numerals of my security code out loud. This would have been crazy in a public place!

|A flavorful tomato-based soup with corn and spicy andouille smoked sausage. Use garden fresh veggies or pantry items - either way it's a delicious soup.
Spicy Cajun Sausage and Corn SoupCorn and tomatoes naturally pair together so well, and thanks to frozen and canned veggies, we have access to them to make a mighty fine soup in the colder weather months. The combination of corn and sausage with tomatoes is a very common soup in the Deep South, as always with the spin of the cook. I have a feeling it was probably made with the end of the summer crops, or birthed out of the need to use up other leftovers.
This soup is also perfect for leftover ham if you're looking for a great way to use up some holiday ham, so go right ahead and substitute. Shrimp is common as well. Take care with any additional salt though - as always, taste, then adjust. Although there are lower sodium options today, some canned tomatoes and corn can have plenty of sodium, and while you can always add more salt, but you can't take it away! Mildly spicy, but certainly tame that down if you like.
I prefer to use Andouille sausage for this soup, a highly spiced smoked sausage that is blended with Cajun spices. It really enhances this soup, adding a spicy kick and great flavor. While you can certainly substitute kielbasa or other smoked sausages, always understand that it will affect the outcome of your dish and you'll need to make adjustments in the herbs and seasonings you use. While I use water with this soup, I add in a tablespoon of Better than Bouillon chicken base.
Thank goodness we don't have to wait for leftovers to make this wonderful soup. It is super simple, yet so full of flavor, and is another one of those belly warmers that I think you'll really enjoy.

Recipe: Spicy Cajun Sausage and Corn SoupFrom the Kitchen of Deep South Dish
Prep time: 10 min |Cook time: 45 min | Yield: About 4 to 6 servings
- 2 tablespoons butter or olive oil
- 1 pound Andouille or other spicy smoked sausage
- 1 cup chopped onion, chopped
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 large (1 pound 12 ounce) can whole tomatoes, undrained
- 1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chilies (like Rotel), undrained
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt, to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper, or to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 tablespoon dried parsley
- 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon Cajun seasoning (like Slap Ya Mama), or to taste
- 3-3/4 cups frozen corn or 3 (15 ounce) cans whole kernel corn, undrained
- 4 cups chicken broth
- Hot sauce for the table, optional
Heat the butter or olive oil over medium high heat in a stockpot. Split the sausage lengthwise into fourths and then slice. Add the sausage to the pot and cook until lightly browned. Add the onion and cook until tender; add garlic and cook another minute.
Use a pair of kitchen shears to break up the tomatoes in the can; add both tomatoes with their liquid, to the sausage mixture; add the sugar and bring to a boil. Boil for 3 minutes. Add the salt, pepper, basil, parsley and Cajun seasoning; stir and add corn with the liquid and the chicken broth. Bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 45 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Pass the hot sauce at the table.
Cook's Notes: May substitute water with bouillon or chicken base - I use water with 1 tablespoon of Better than Bouillon chicken base. Andouille sausage is a highly spiced smoked sausage that is blended with Cajun spices, adding a spicy kick and great flavor to this soup. If you substitute kielbasa or other smoked sausages in recipes where it calls for Andouille, understand it will affect the outcome of your dish and you'll need to make adjustments in the herbs and seasonings you use.

Sore for days. My first day using a suspension trainer seemed easy until I tried to roll out of bed the next day.
Sore for days. My first day using a suspension trainer seemed easy until I tried to roll out of bed the next day.
My "everything" hurt. My core felt sorest. The soreness lasted for about a week. I guess I wasn't used to activating my core like the suspension trainer requires.
Not everyone is that sore after one workout on the suspension trainer. My first day happened to be an eight-hour instructional course. It involved learning dozens of movements along with their progressions and regressions. The instructor also ran us throughout three benchmark workouts.
A suspension trainer is not a person; it is an adjustable strap system with handles. You can work the upper and lower body with fast transitions and no weight to load. You are the machine as well as all the resistance you will need.
Suspension trainers are growing more popular in gyms. You may even see the signature gray TRX rig that looks like scaffolding in your gym. Some gyms require you to check out the black and yellow, adjustable bands while others have them hanging for open use.
Suspension trainers come in many forms. They look similar, but their features vary. Some have one kind of adjuster while others have a different type of handle. You can even use Olympic gymnastic rings to perform suspension exercises. Olympic rings are my favorite. I have even seen instructions on how to make your own for around $20 from materials at the hardware store.
You can find them online and at most sporting goods stores. Prices are positively correlated with quality. I recommend using your gym's suspension equipment: it is cheaper and easier than making your own.
Whichever suspension trainer you choose, the principles are the same. Your body is the machine and the plank is the default position for most exercises. This is how your body becomes the machine. You hold part of it still (the core), while another part moves (the limbs and/or hip).
As a trainer, I like using suspension to drill how important the posterior chain is for movement. The glutes, core and back are major engines tuned for stability and movement. With suspension training you feel them all. If one of those areas gets lazy, you can easily see it by the way a person moves.
Take today's suspension pushup exercise for example. In most floor version pushups, the principle of torque is lost; there is no external rotation of the shoulder capsule to put it in a safe and stable position. It becomes easy for the shoulder to take over most of the pectorals' and triceps' work. From there, you could even develop a viral movement pattern that can carry over to other areas. Trainers and athletes can miss this with the traditional pushup.
The suspension pushup requires the handle or rings to be externally rotated as a part of stability and thus it carries over throughout the entire movement. If that outward rotation is lost, the shoulders ache, the upper back rounds and the core stability falls apart obviously. All because of a few degrees of tension in the shoulder capsule.
Suspension pushups are also going to be triceps-dominant because the hands are close to the body. This helps maintain healthy shoulders and develop strength in the chest and triceps.
A chest press also enables depth training. Since there is no floor under the hands, just air, lifters can use this exercise to train pressing below the chest level for a more dynamic movement.
Suspension trainers are, in trainer lingo, an unstable and controllable environment. This translates to strong and stable joints because the body is forced to stabilize more than on a traditional sit-down machine at the gym.
Suspension exercises are easy to progress and regress — just step forward or backward.
The less bodyweight you have on the suspension trainer, the less your muscles work. This principal comes in handy for the other suspension exercise featured today, reaches. Reaches are a potent exercise. Start off almost standing up and slowly progress to a lower position by stepping backwards. Reaches are a gymnastic drill to help build a strong rotator cuff. No lifting here, just unadulterated stability

Just in time for those holiday abductions, Amazon is selling a "UFO-O2 Detector." It will help you spot UFOs coming, by beeping when it detects "magnetic anomalies." But the best part is the product reviews.
This gadget is from the fine people at Images SI, who will also sell you a Roswell UFO crash site soil sample, good for lining your alien vampire coffin. So this detector, apparently the second in a series, comes with a fine pedigree.
Here's what Images SI say it will do:
- The UFO detector continually monitors its surrounding area for any magnetic and electromagnetic anomalies.
- The UFO detector is a magnetometer interfaced with microcontroller for detecting magnetic anomalies.
Obviously the Amazon reviewers agree.
The most popular response is from "George Takei," a "Top 1000" reviewer on Amazon. He describes how he became a true believer in the UFO-02 Detector:
I purchased this gizmo to play a prank on my husband Brad, who still prattles on about his "fourth-kind" encounter when he was just thirteen. (The 4th kind involves a probe, if you're wondering. I keep saying it was likely his redneck neighbor dressed as ET, but that possibility is too dreadful for him to truly accept.)
On the anniversary of Brad's alleged abduction, I placed the device by our bedside, then set-up an electromagnetic wave generator under the bed, with a timer to go off right at midnight. (If you're wondering where to get one, I recommend the Skymall Catalog. I also picked up some Motivational posters and fake garden rock speakers to save on shipping. You're welcome.)
But back to my prank. It was all set to go, and I was as giddy as a six year old waiting for Santa. But like a typical six year old, I fell asleep before the damn thing went off. I awoke to the flashing of multiple LEDs from the UFO-02 Detector, and bolted up, eager to see Brad's petrified face. Aha!
But Brad wasn't there.
In fact, I wasn't even in our bedroom any more. Instead, I stood face-to-face with Leonardo da Vinci. Or perhaps it was Professor Dumbledore, I'm not really certain. In either event, It was a manifestation that the being I shall call the "Intelligence" had determined my brain would most easily accept for deliverance of The Message.
You see, the Intelligence had come to convey to us humans that the Imperative was nigh, that what we loosely dub the Singularity was only the beginning of a limitless existence unbounded by physical space and time, and that sugar-free alternatives are actually WORSE for us than the real deal. He made sure that last point was clear by making me repeat it twice.
When I came to, Brad was sound asleep in his tin foil hat, the UFO-02 detector was gone, and, sure enough, all of my Splenda had been replaced with little, brown raw sugar packets. When I tried to tell Brad about Leonardo/Dumbledore and The Message, he rolled over away from me, grumbling that I shouldn't eat so much ice cream or any dairy product before bed.
R.J. Reid sums up his experiences much more succinctly:
This little gizmo is a bargain at twice the price and much more accurate than the voices in my head.
A Trustworthy Human thinks we should be a lot more skeptical:
I, as a resonable and trUstworthy hUman, do not gleep nerp this ungood prodUct. Bad it is for Us hUmans to purchase and opperate this online pUrchasable prodUct.
As the person from Earth that I am, I think that all of my other fellow hUmans on Earth should immediately disUse and florgnify this Utterly Zorglefran, I mean bad item for bUying. Ha Ha. I am laughing with hUmor with the funny word I made up with my typing that I am not doing by direct thought extraction, and instant data transmission to Amazon.com website. Ha Ha. That was highly hUmoroUs and glerp . . .
Besides even if the alien friends did exist, who minds occassional anal probe for benefit of aliens that don't exist glerp science! I, as a resonable and trustworthy human person from Earth sure wouldn't mind helping our fUtUre overlords!
And Cyphis complains:
I don't know if this is a scam or if mine was broken, but it doesn't work and I am still getting abducted by UFO's on a regular basis.
Carl Rabbin has some technical advice:
When there was just analog TV, my antenna had no trouble getting good VFO (2-13) and UFO (ch 14-69) reception. Now that there is digitalis TV, I was not getting such great reception. With this device plugged in through a 75 ommmmm connector, and a gnome on the roof holding the rooftop antenna, I get great UFO reception, which is great because most fidgital channels are now on UFO channels numbers. But Channel 12 still doesn't come in as well as I expected. That might be because it's 120 miles away, but I'm not sure.
And Marsha has practical advice:
I have noticed it works much better if you 1)take LSD, 2)take Ecstasy, 3)snort a little cocaine, 4)smoke ganja and 5)drink several bottles of Jack Daniels. The colors really pop then.
Mark Swanson is grateful:
I can't begin to tell you how many times this UFO detector has saved my ass! I used to wake up in the morning feeling funky and disoriented, sore all over my body, with strange memories of bondage and penetration. Now I employ the UFO-02 Detector (by Images SI), and this puppy kicks into action before any of those little creeps can lay a long, slimy grey finger on me.
afinegan retorts:
I flew my FPV quad copter over the detector and it went off, this thing doesn't know the difference between a rc toy or a real UFO. I want my money back!
You can read all these comments and so much more, over on Amazon.

'What is man?' - Pastor Delmar Dabney
The commonly asked question that we will look at today is, "What is man?" Since I believe that the Bible is the source of truth, I am pointing us to the Word of God for our answers to these common questions. Today we are reading from the 144th division of the Psalms.
"Blessed is the Lord my rock, who trains my hands for war, and my fingers for battle — my loving kindness and my fortress, my high tower and my deliverer, my shield and the one in whom I take refuge, who subdues my people under me. Lord, what is man that you take knowledge of him? Or, the son of man that you are mindful of him? Man is like a breath; His days are like a passing shadow. Bow down your heavens, O Lord, and come down; Touch the mountains, and they shall smoke. Flash forth lightening and scatter them; Shoot out your arrows and destroy them. Stretch out your hand from above, rescue me and deliver me out of great waters, from the hand of falsehood. I will sing a new song to you, O God; On a harp of ten strings I will sing praises to you. Happy are the people who are in such a state; Happy are the people whose God is the Lord."
On more than one occasion, the ancient psalmists asked our common question: "What is man?" This one provides an answer: "Man is like a breath; His days are like a passing shadow." What is man? Now that is a good question. I'll never forget my first test in my college psych class because that was it. What is man? Yes, I mean it. That was the whole test. "In three hours of writing time, answer the following question: 'What is man?'"
Perhaps the reason it sounds like a philosophical question is that we like to think no one but philosophers ask such absurd questions. Isn't it obvious what man is? Don't you know what man is, simply by being a man or a woman, part of humankind? I thought I was a philosopher then. I thought I knew the answer. I wrote with ease. How young, and how presumptuous and how foolish I was.
No, the mystery of our humanness must never be answered in simple language. It takes the gift of poetry or music combined with the heart and mind of a psalmist to bring that mystery into expression. And that is what the writer of Psalm 144 has done for us. I could cover only a part of it for us in my limited time with you. Take time to read and reread it. His discovery is awesome. And, he will give you some new insights relative to yourself.
Next to the eternal God who made us, we are but a breath, a passing shadow. Why should God think of us? Why should He care? And in light of this consider how He treats us.
On the other hand, looking at God in contrast to what we are, our psalmist calls our attention to the fact that our God is solid. He is our rock and our fortress. He is the One in whom we have taken refuge.
You see, the only way for us to answer the question "What is man?" is to put man next to God. And no one did that better than our Lord Jesus. Know Jesus, friend, and you will know what man is, at least from God's point of view.
Please pray with me. "Lord, my rock, this is only a simple way of saying it, but thank you for showing me what I am through what Jesus did for me. Accept my praise for his sake. Amen and amen."
The Rev. Delmar Dabney was a spiritual inspiration in Southeast Texas for many years before his death in 1994. This and other messages from his daily television show, "Coffee with Pastor Dabney," are featured here regularly.

Darien's Johnston takes 22nd in Fairfield Half Marathon
Although he was neck-and-neck with a fellow Kenyan, when Eric Chirchir hit the 10-mile post of Sunday's Stratton Faxon Fairfield Half Marathon, he knew he was going to win.
Sure enough, the 29-year-old runner was right.
Chirchir pulled away from Shadrack Kipkorir Kiyai over the final 1.1 miles, winning the 33rd-annual race with a time of 1:05.58.
"After like 10 miles, I was sure I would win," Chirchir said. "I was looking at [Kiyai], and I knew I could go at the same pace as I came in, and I can just pull in the last mile."
On a hot, humid morning that took a toll on runners over the 13.1-mile course, Kiyai was second, 17 seconds behind Chirchir at 1:06.15.
Another Kenyan, Amos Sang placed third, 30 seconds behind Kiyai at 1:06.28. Ethiopian Girma Bekele was fourth with 1:06.50.
Christopher Zablocki of Essex was Connecticut's top finisher, coming in seventh overall in 1:08.39 -- 2 minutes, 41 seconds off the winning pace.
Tesfaye Girma, last year's champion, finished 12th.
More InformationFact box
Newtown's Kevin Hoyt was the top Fairfield County finisher, taking 13th place -- 1 minute, 16 seconds behind Girma.
Ethiopia's Tigist Tufa was the top-female runner, placing 16th overall with a time of 1:15.24. Stratford's Laura Sara was Fairfield County's first female to finish, placing fourth among the women and 30th overall with a time of 1:21.
"The last part was not pretty," Sara said. "It was a lot harder, and it was hot. But it was really well organized, and I think they took out one of the big hills, which was nice."
Christopher Barrett was the top-Fairfield finisher. The 26 year old placing 35th and posted a personal-best time of 1:21.39.
"It was awesome," Barrett said. "There were a lot of people out on the course. It was just great."
Tom Harding was Westport's top finisher, placing 52nd with a time of 1:24.47.
Chirchir, Kiyai, Sang and Bekele ran in a pack for about five miles, as the route meandered through Sasco Hill and into Westport.
Chirchir led with a 29:01 time after six miles, then he and Kiyai pulled ahead. They even passed the police escort and press truck, which were momentarily stalled on Westport's exclusive Beachside Avenue when a motorist in a Porche wandered onto the course.
The Kenyans ran side-by-side through mile 12, until Chirchir kicked in the afterburners -- sprinting ahead and crossing the finish line ahead of Kiyai by 17 seconds.
"I was trying to push," Kiyai said. "But I didn't have any energy anymore."
The hilly course stretched into Westport for the first time in 12 years. Miles 5 through 8 looped through Westport's Greens Farms area and offered scenic views of Long Island Sound as the courses headed back toward cheering crowds in Southport and Fairfield.
"I love the old course, but this one is good too," Barrett said. "It got a little quiet out by Greens Farms Academy, but other than that, you get a lot of crowd support coming back into Fairfield."
Chirchir lauded the course, saying "it reminds me of my home in Kenya." Still, like Sara, the winner admitted he was worn down by the intense heat and humidity.
"The weather was not nice," Chirchir said. "It was hot, humid, and I was not feeling comfortable."
With 80-plus-degree heat and bright sun, there were multiple police-radio transmissions about runners in distress. Fairfield Assistant Fire Chief Chris Tracy said there were "heat-related injuries, but nothing out of the ordinary."
Twelve people were treated for dehydration, and five of them were transported to the hoispital, race officials said.
Sara, a 2010 Bunnell High graduate who is a long-distance runner and just finished her junior season at UConn, was impressed by the pace. She ran the race in 2010 and averaged a 6:50 mile but posted a 6:11 average mile this year.
"We went out really fast, too fast for me," Sara said. "I was definitely feeling it after mile 8. I wasn't sure I was going to finish it, but I did."

13 High-End Luxury Gadgets That You Must Have
With technology changing so rapidly, gadgets and gizmos are being invented that change the way we perform mundane tasks making the ordinary extraordinary. Then there are luxury gadgets that add a little (or a lot) of flair that test the bounds of innovation and become must-have items for those with the means to afford them. Advancements in technology have allowed for gadgets at home, in the workplace and those used for leisure activities to push the boundaries of usability, function and are just downright jaw-dropping. From the largest outdoor TV to a smart working station to an engine-propelled jet board, here are the top luxury gadgets you must have.

Kamino: The Return 3
Cross the bridge to the opposite platform. You'll be attacked by a group Sith acolytes. Kill them and then drag the bridge you just crossed back to its original position. With the bridge back in place, cross it. When you reach its end hop along the platforms and droids until you reach another dead end. Look down you'll see one of the bridges you used earlier. Raise it up and when it's in position, cross it to the next group of platforms. Work your way up the platforms and you should to another series of rotating platforms. Wait for one to draw close and jump onto it.
Jump across the platforms toward the left. You should come to another floating droid. Hop up and onto the next platform and you'll see another bridge cross the bridge and jump onto the nearby platform. There's a set of sliding doors, pry them open and head inside.
Enter the room inside and you'll be attacked by a large group acolytes. Use force persuasion on them and then kill them as they fight each other. On the other side of the room from where you entered is another sealed door. When you've cleared it of enemies, pry it open with your force grip and proceed.
You'll enter another huge, multi-level room similar to the one you just worked through. This area is much more simple than its predecessor, though. There are several tiers of revolving platforms, each one accessible by jumping onto a floating droid that will bring you into jumping range of the one above. Just work your way, defeating any enemies foolish enough to attack you along the way. When you reach the top of you'll find a bridge, pull it down with your force grip. Cross the bridge and you'll reach a platform with a sealed door.
Pry it open and head inside. At the rear of the room is an elevator board it to end the level.

At the reveal event for the PlayStation 4 back in February, Sony highlighted how players would be able to share screens and videos from their games with friends using a convenient Share button on the PS4 controller. But it turns out that the PS4 game developers will be able to limit that sharing ability when it suits them.
In an interview with Japan's 4Gamer (which was translated by Edge), Sony Worldwide Studios President Shuhei Yoshida mentioned that the Share button can be disabled by developers that don't want certain parts of the game to be captured.
"There will be parts of a game that the maker does not want people to be able to see," Yoshida said. "For example, on Vita, developers can in certain scenes disable the feature that lets users take a screenshot, and [the Share function on PS4] will have a similar mechanism. The creator may not want to make video of the final boss shareable, for instance."
It's a bit of an odd limitation since there's nothing Sony can really do to limit the shareability of content on an already-released PS4 game. There will be nothing stopping PS4 players from taking a picture of any game moment or using video capture hardware and software to stream it directly to the Internet if they want. Yoshida himself notes that he had a minor addiction to Dark Souls videos available on Japanese sharing site NicoNico Douga, even though the PS3 doesn't have any way to easily share video.
Yes, disabling the Share button makes it a bit harder for a casual user to throw spoilers up on social networks, and it makes it less likely for a casual PS4 user to stumble on those spoilers when looking for other videos and screenshots through the system. Still, it seems unduly burdensome to completely disable sharing for certain game content. Sony could have instead taken a lead from Nintendo, which lets users and moderators hide Miiverse screenshots and messages behind a "Spolier" tag that has to be actively clicked through before it's seen.
More than likely, this limitation to the Share button is just a concession Sony made to neurotic developers who were nervous about the PS4 ruining the big twist at the end of their games. Someone should tell these developers that there's already a technology that makes it easy to effectively spoil every narrative ever created. It's called the Internet.
