In his last minutes of life, 14-year-old David Phan grabbed a gun and shot himself in front of friends.
To some of his Bennion Junior High School peers, the teen's suicide on Nov. 29 in Taylorsville sounded like yet another young person succumbing to social rejection, if not outright bullying, according to some students and the Phan family.
The junior high student did not post on a Facebook page or leave a written note, according to police reports, so it's hard to know why he took his own life.
What is known is that Utah teens commit suicide more often than their peers in other parts of the nation. Two youths are treated for suicide attempts every day in Utah, according to the latest report on the subject by the Utah Department of Health.
Health officials said all suicide attempts should be taken seriously. In 2011, Utah high school students reported that: 26 percent felt sad/hopeless; 14 percent had seriously considered attempting suicide; 12 percent made a suicide plan; 7 percent attempted suicide one or more times; and 3 percent had suffered an injury because of a suicide attempt that had been treated by seeking medical help.
"[Suicide] is a very big problem in our state," said Jenny Johnson, a health department coordinator. "Utah has had a high suicide rate for over a decade."
Bullying and suicide an awareness of how closely those two can be linked in the lives of young people has never been stronger than of late. But the facts so far of David's life fit no simple narrative.
He attended Bennion Junior High, which is described as a typical public school for about 1,000 students in grades seven through nine. From the Vietnamese culture, David had an older brother as well as a two-parent home, along with an extended family.
His suicide left many in his school bewildered. The Phan family issued a statement saying David had been bullied in his last days, but school officials said there were no recent reports of bullying from David or anyone else.
The Unified Police Department is investigating the suicide.
"We're still investigating but [have] no evidence to pursue criminal charges," Lt. Justin Hoyal said Friday. There are no particular individuals or suicide notes pointing to the reasons behind David's actions
Bennion Junior principal Rod Horton said Friday that students had collected donations for Phan's family, who are starting an anti-bullying foundation, as part of the school's regular holiday charity events.
Beyond that, Horton referred questions to Granite School District spokesman Ben Horsley, who said officials will meet with the family soon.
So far, the Phan family has asked for privacy while grieving for their son, who was buried Tuesday during a private ceremony. Relatives have not spoken about David's state of mind and whether he was dealing with routine teen trials or other issues.
Horsley said previously that David had been seeing a school counselor, but no educators or students have come forward to report any bullying involving David.
Several Bennion Junior students have started a Twitter profile, where about a dozen students have posted under the hashtag of #DavidsArmy. A description of the group, @ DavidsArmy, states, "This is the official Davids (sic) Army page. Were (sic) here to stop bullying and protect those who are bullied."
Some students have used the page as an outlet for the grief following David's death.
"Everyone please help people know bullying isn't the answer. And suicide shouldn't have to be either. RIP David Phan," wrote Bennion Junior High student Megan Malcolm.
Added student Connor Johnson, "Together we can make #Davidsarmy known, and prevent losses like ours from happening again."
School officials acknowledge David reported being bullied two years ago, while emphasizing there weren't any recent reports. Even so, most people do not commit suicide because of one event or a floundering relationship, although both can surely contribute, some experts say.
Two main risk factors for suicide are depression and a prior suicide attempt. Although not going into details, Horsley said last week that David faced "significant personal challenges on multiple fronts."
Anita Nielsen, a psychologist at Riverton High School, has dealt with teen suicide. When the school lost three students in one year to suicide, the school counselors and Nielsen started the Hope Squad, a suicide prevention program. She said the squad is a collection of students who are named as being available for those needing to talk.
Nielsen also teaches about suicide prevention at the Jordan Education Center, where she teaches parenting classes, anger and stress management, and other subjects.
"They're looking out for kids who are loners and those types of things," said Nielsen, who was named 2012 Utah State Psychologist of the Year. "I think a lot of bullying starts in elementary and then in junior high it can get really bad and in high school it eases off. It's important to get guns and medications out of the house. Teens are impulsive."
Why, exactly, did the 14-year-old decide to end his life? What was at the bottom of his sense of despair? What services might have reached him?
In death, so far, the teen left no clear answers.
Twitter: @rayutah How does state code define bullying?
"Bullying" means intentionally or knowingly committing an act that:
1. (a) endangers the physical health or safety of a school employee or student;
(b) involves any brutality of a physical nature such as whipping, beating, branding, calisthenics, bruising, electric shocking, placing of a harmful substance on the body or exposure to the elements;
(c) involves consumption of any food, liquor, drug or other substance;
(d) involves other physical activity that endangers the physical health and safety of a school employee or student; or
(e) involves physically obstructing a school employee's or student's freedom to move; and
2. is done for the purpose of placing a school employee or student in fear of:
(a) physical harm to the school employee or student; or
(b) harm to property of the school employee or student.


text: Blockchain - a revolution for the insurance sector with some risks Insurance Update Share this 9 MAR 2017 By: Giulio Coraggio Blockchain is "the most important invention since the Internet itself" according to Marc Andreessen. And there is no doubt that there are huge potentials for the insurance sector to exploit such technology, but as any new technology, it will also lead to new legal risks. The Bank of England defines blockchain as "a technology that allows people who don't know each other to trust a shared record of events". The main peculiarity of the blockchain is the existence of a shared record, a ledger, distributed to all the participants allowing multiple parties to transfer and store information in a space that is secure, permanent and easily accessible. The McKinsey Panorama Fintech database currently registers over 200 blockchain-related solutions, of which about 20 provide use cases for insurers that go beyond payment transactions – either as specific applications or as base platforms. Also, even traditional insurance companies, such as AXA and Generali, have started to invest in blockchain applications and Allianz has just recently announced its successful pilot of a blockchain-based smart contract solution to automate catastrophe swap transactions. Automate underwriting and claims handling, but also fraud detection The most common usage of blockchain in the insurance sector is in the automation of underwriting and claims handling. Indeed, if applications for insurance policies, contract terms and claims are recorded in a blockchain, a so called "smart contract" can automatically: Select the applications that should be accepted and the applicable terms, including pricing Pay premiums on the occurrence of the conditions set out in the contract Identify frauds Potentially profile customers/claimants in much more detail The above can be achieved relying on data that can be obtained through the sensors of telematics devices and/or public and private sources. Internet of Things technologies can for instance enable to have a full understanding of the reasons leading to an accident in an industrial plant or involving a car and, if such data is recorded on a blockchain, the payment of the premium can be almost instantaneous. But if the same IoT technologies can record on a blockchain the information obtained from public and private sources about the loss of a luggage during a flight, a customer might receive the payment of the premium from his travel insurance company even already at the exit from the airport, rather than after weeks or months. Also, a blockchain where all claims from different insurance companies are recorded can help to identify frauds since for instance it can detect if more than one claim has been filed for the same accident or if a customer is "black listed". This would be a revolution for the insurance sector not only in terms of more efficiency for customers, but also with reference to cost savings as no liquidator would be involved since the process would be fully automated. Privacy restrictions are not "friends" of full automation One of main privacy issues that might derive from the usage of blockchain in the insurance sector is that the upcoming EU General Privacy Regulation provides that individuals "shall have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning him or her or similarly significantly affects him or her". Exceptions to such rule apply when an automated decision is either provided by the law, such as in the case of fraud prevention systems, or is necessary to enter into a contract or is based on the individual's prior consent. But, in the latter two scenarios, individuals will still have the right to obtain human intervention to express their point of view and to contest the decision which is commonly known as the right to receive a justification of the automated decision. Therefore a system which is 100% automated can exist, but a right of appeal to a human would be still possible. Likewise, the deep automated profiling of individuals required to ensure the immediate action by the blockchain implies the need to collect personal information from different sources and this shall comply with the strict regime introduced by the EU General Privacy Regulation which provides sanctions up to 4% of the global turnover of the breaching entity or € 20 million, whatever is higher. A so called "data protection impact assessment" and a privacy by design approach focused on data minimization and security of technical and organization measures implemented shall be put in place. Lack of full control might lead to risks But the above is not the sole risk associated to the usage of blockchain in the insurance sector. One of the main issues affecting public blockchain is the inability of controlling and stopping its functioning. The perfect example is given by a blockchain based decentralized autonomous organization (DAO). This is a new form of legal structure in which ownership, management and control "are automated and human involvement is limited or removed, based on a pre-agreed rule set". If everything is automated and out of control, does it mean that none is liable for illegal activities performed through a DAO? Or on the contrary, the mere participation to the DAO creates a distributed liability of all its participants as a partnership made of all its participants? An interesting parallel can be made with the rules applicable to Internet service providers (ISP) as interpreted by courts. The rules regarding the liability of ISPs are set out in the European E-Commerce Directive which provides for: The liability exclusion for ISPs in relation to contents published by their users, unless they become aware of the illegal activity perpetrated The lack of obligation on ISPs to monitor the conduct of their users Despite the above principles, courts have been focusing on the distinction between: "Active" Internet service providers that categorize and organize contents published by their users, also providing features to them in relation to the usage and search of contents, to which the liability exclusions do not apply "Passive" ISPs which do not offer the above features and to which the umbrella of liability exclusions prescribed by the European eCommerce Directive do apply The difference between the regime applicable to blockchain and the one regulating ISPs' liability is based on the fact that the EU eCommerce Directive introduced special rules to exclude such liability. Similar rules are not prescribed by regulations governing the blockchain (if any). It might be argued that if a DAO cannot be controlled, there is no negligence or wilful misconduct. And therefore no liability arises. But it might be also argued that either the creation of the DAO trigger liabilities itself or, as mentioned above, all the participants to a DAO can be deemed jointly liable. In case of a private blockchain, the lack of control on the functioning of the platform does not apply. But is this sufficient to trigger a liability of the company managing the platform? Given the number of transactions that can occur at the same time and automatically on a blockchain, principles similar to those applicable to ISPs might be applicable. Also, a private blockchain might lower the level of security that is the peculiarity of a blockchain like Bitcoin and would considerably limit the amount of data that can be aggregated. All in all, I still believe that blockchain will be a real "revolution" for the insurance sector, but the implementation of such technology will require a quite deep legal review.

In Father Eric's hospital room, he comments that it didn't take long for Nicole and Daniel to get together. He appears upset and when Daniel turns up he doesn't answer Daniel's medical questions. Daniel's paged and goes. Nicole calls it awkward. Eric questions her and she says their old feelings resurfaced when they both needed a friend. Eric's worried for her. Nicole is quick to say they're keeping it quiet and not to bring it up to Dan. She insists she's not attracted to Eric anymore. She's there as a friend. Daniel returns and ushers her out so he can examine his patient and she stands outside, eavesdropping. Daniel checks Eric's lungs and says he's free to go in a few hours. They should be able to identify the masking agent in a few days. Eric brings up him and Nicole. He says it's uncomfortable and before Daniel can answer, Nicole bursts in. She thinks they should discuss things further at the apartment since Parker's at Chloe's for the holidays. Daniel is puzzled and drags her out of the room. What was that about? She comes clean about her lie that they're a couple and the reason. He's not happy. "How many times does a lie have to blow up in your face?" he asks. He goes to tell Eric the truth but the priest is asleep.
Days Recap: It's A Secret.
Ciara tells Allie a secret, Sami finds out where her diamond earring is, and Gabi guesses that Sonny knows her secret.
At the DiMera mansion, Sami asks Harold to be on the lookout for the mate to her diamond earring. She receives Will's text to meet but EJ interrupts to point out she's been ignoring her duties at work. It's out of character. She wraps a present and says she's delegating work and focusing on the big picture like he wanted. He scoffs. She thinks this is a conversation about sex. He laughs and tells her he'll keep quiet if she lets him back in her bed. They get close to kissing but she pulls away. He reminds her she's sleeping in his bed. He can tell something else is wrong and asks her to open up. She asks him to tell her the truth about Kristen. They're at an impasse so she goes.
Sonny heads into the Brady's Pub and sees Hope. He flashes to overhearing that Nick was murdered and looks distant so Hope asks if she can help. They discuss the kids and Hope admits she thought Bo would be home months ago. It's complicated. At another table, Ciara tells Allie a secret. She shows her Sami's diamond earring. Sami arrives and Sonny runs off before they can really engage causing Sami to ask Hope if he's okay. Hope doesn't think there's anything to worry about and leaves with Ciara.
Abby stops by Will's and snuggles with Arianna while they catch up. Abby brings up Nick. Do they ever talk? Will says no and takes his share of responsibility for what happened when Nick blackmailed him. He's a different person now. Sami and Allie arrive. "Allie-cat!" Will exclaims. Sami asks if he has seen the mate to her earring. He hasn't but Allie says Ciara has one... "But it's a secret." She grimaces and Sami agrees not to tell Ciara she told her. Will tells Sami he knows all about his surprise party, making Sami furrow her brow. He'd rather she didn't so she agrees not to. Will admits Sonny was in the closet the whole time when they were planning things. Sami goes white.
Gabi goes into Rafe's new apartment with a potted plant and hallucinates Nick's there. She drops the plant and gasps but it's just Pete Clark, Rafe's new physiotherapist. He just looks similar to Nick. Pete goes and Rafe realizes Gabi thought Pete was Nick. "The resemblance is uncanny." He assures her Nick's never returning. Hope and Ciara arrive with work for Rafe. He's happy he's becoming useful again. Gabi hopes Ciara can visit soon and says goodbye and Merry Christmas to all before leaving. Ciara tells them about a girl she knows who can skate backwards and that she can't. Rafe offers to help which cheers her up. He shows her some strengthening exercises which will help.
EJ finds Abigail reading The Adoration of The Magi by Raphael at Club TBD. She didn't want him to think she bought it because of him. He assumes she did because of her father. She was trying to read into Jack's reason for giving her Raphael's wing and isn't sure she can live up to Jack's expectations. EJ thinks he'd be proud of her.
Gabi runs into Sonny at the Horton Square. It's uncomfortable. She guesses that he knows about Nick.

Growing up I always thought those Calgon commercials were corny. Partly because I'm not a bath guy (an oxymoron if there ever was one) and partly because I try not to let things stress me out too much because, in the end, it will pass.
We all grew up with those commercials, where a mom is freaking out over traffic, the baby, the dog and anything else. Eventually a gigantic bubble bath is all that can calm her down. She obviously has never heard of a big glass (or 3) or Merlot.
But now my feelings have changed, maybe. Not on the bath part, mind you, but the other part of it. The good news is that I can usually see it coming, from a bunch of different angles.
As any parent will tell you, nothing creates a door-slamming, kid-screaming, baby-crying, dad-drinking evening like a couple of tired kids, piled on top of a couple of tired adults at the end of their rope.
We had one of those nights on Tuesday. It was not pretty.
It actually started the night before when both kids were up too late. Brant probably didn't get to bed until closer to 7:45, maybe an hour later for Maren. But she has this habit of sitting in her room quietly and reading for another hour or so. In reality, it's often anybody's best guess when she finally sleeps.
So the table was set for a disastrous Tuesday night, which is bath night in our house, and typically when things go south quickly, as most parents know. By the time everybody went upstairs for bath, Maren had already lost reading privileges for the evening. When dealing a tired kid, taking anything away is usually the last straw and it was in this instance.
She wanted no part of bath time, especially with her brother. He was so distraught he was running around the upstairs no clothes on, yelling for his sister, who was still downstairs in full meltdown mode. When Brant gets upset, his best defense is 'dead fish' where he flops on the floor face first and cries. This time he was so upset, he tried it in the tub and dunked his head under water.
Eventually I got the girl in the bathroom, where she was screaming 'you are the worst mommy ever!" for taking away reading privileges. After I got her in there, she started yelling at me because "you're the only person in the house that doesn't love me!"
Fun. Real fun.
Best thing about tired kids? They go to sleep and wake up refreshed and ready to tackle the world. Plus they have an attention span of about 12 seconds, so they have forgotten about the outbursts (on both sides) from the night before.

Col. City rebounds from first loss, beats North Side
Fort Wayne — Columbia City's Lady Eagle basketball team traveled to Fort Wayne to take on the 1-3 North Side Lady Redskins with the hopes of getting back in the win column following a heartbreaking home overtime loss to undefeated Leo. The Lady Eagles used a pressure perimeter defense to negate the Lady Redskins main offensive threats and balanced scoring to down the host Lady Redskins by a 57-36 score Friday night."We knew going in that they didn't have a tough post presence," said Lady Eagle Head Coach Amy Shearer, "But we knew that they had two kids who could really put some points up on the board so we knew we had to put the clamps down on them." For most of the game, the visiting Lady Eagles did just that, limiting Sierra Miranda to 4-of-14 shooting from the field. Miranda totaled 14 points including a game opening three that put the hosts up 3-0 to start the contest, but four of those points came from the free throw line.To read the rest of this story, see the November 30 issue of The Post and Mail.

Mr. Hart's House
In my work with the colonial plats in the Orangeburgh District area of South Carolina it has been rare to come across a plat drawing that shows a house location. Today's cluster of plats at Cattle Creek and Sandy Run included one that indicates approximately where William Hart's house was located below Orangeburgh Township. David Gavin's diary, I noticed that he frequently referred to tracts of land by their original owners, regardless of who may have currently owned them. Is Lambrick perhaps a corrupted reference to Lambright? Do any of my readers have any other information on the name Lambrick in this vicinity? As an interesting aside, notice that this soil survey map did not show the configuration of Cattle Creek and Sandy Run as accurately as the topographic map does. On the topographic map notice that after Sandy Run flows west for a short distance it then runs parallel to Cattle Creek briefly before flowing into Cattle Creek. Google Earth will confirm that the topographic map is more accurate. Back to Mr. Hart, the owner of the house ... William Hart first appeared in the Giessendanner Records when he married Sarah Young on October 3, 1750. He was described as "of the Congarees" by Rev. John Giessendanner but apparently settled below Orangeburgh Township after his marriage. Two of his children were baptized by Rev. Giessendanner in the 1750s. His daughter Grace married John Wood. In 1785 John and Grace sold 250 acres of her father's land to Sebastian Funchess. [1] The tract they sold was the one labeled number 3 on my map above and probably was the location of "Mr. Hart's House." [1] Brent Holcomb, South Carolina Deed Abstracts, 1783-1788 (Columbia: SCMAR, 1996), page 340. For a PDF copy of the plat drawing click this link: Colonial Plats at Cattle Creek and Sandy RunThese eleven tracts (numbers 5 and 10 were for the same land) were surveyed over a nineteen year period by three different surveyors. George Strother did the last six plats and included some details about paths (indicated by red arrows) and the location of "Mr. Hart's House." The path shown on plats 7, 8, and 9 corresponds well with what is currently known as Banbury Drive. The path shown on plat 6, leading to "Mr. Hart's House," does not seem to exist in any modern form. The house was drawn just off the edge of the tract on plat 6 and is shown on the drawing above in an approximate location. (Note: Bowman Branch Highway did not exist until the 20th century but is labeled on the map above to help identify the area.) Plat number 5 was surveyed for Henry Wood in April 1767 by John Mitchell. George Strother resurveyed the same tract eighteen months later for William Hart (plat number 10). Strother indicated in the text of the plat drawing that it was the same land surveyed for Wood. Plat number 7 was first surveyed in July 1767 for Philip Lambright. He probably never took out the grant for the land as it was certified twenty years later for Peter Stalley in September 1787. Both of the Berry plats (numbers 8 and 9) reference Lambright as the adjoining owner. While looking at some later maps of this area, I noticed an interesting name. The 1913 soil survey map of the eastern portion of Orangeburgh District shows a community called Lambrick in this vicinity. While recently re-reading

Was there any evidence that Joshua Lockwood built a house on either of the plats that he inherited from his father, or that his father, Joshua Lockwood, had built on the property?
Thank you

USA is too buddy buddy with China to go around fighting them.
Look how much we trade with them. War with China will never happen.
Thats why we haven't pressured them to free Tibet or cease invasions on other Asian countries... Our economy relies on them too much for that.
That's one of the reason's why we wouldn't start that war. America generally dosen't take on threats that can do serious damage to us. However, China would have a win win situation in taking out the US: Last big threat gone, domination of the world economy, new superpower. I am of the belife that, China hasn't started a war with us yet simply because they aren't ready. Give it 10 years and we'll see how your opinion changes.
Brad, what do you consider to make someone (or something) buddy buddy with? To me it all boils down to trust:
Should we pull our boys out of Iraq?What do you think?

"Tiles to the right of them, Tiles to left of them, Tiles in front of them" - Alfred Tennyson, The Charge of the Metro Brigade (1854) The sudden departure of Steve Sinofsky from Microsoft leaves Redmond with its biggest crisis for years - and it needs to assure investors as a matter of urgency.

Well it's actually more likely that Nero played the Lyre, as the violin did not exist. As there are plenty of liars in Microsoft, I have to say yes.
Feel free to groan........
My personal preference on the issue is that the fiddling was a metaphor. From the link:
Nero's fiddling may not have anything to do with music at all, but rather is a metaphor for his ineffectiveness. Fiddling, after all, can also mean that a person is expending energy on something useless or misguided... It's possible that the idea is a relic of propaganda so effective that it's survived 2,000 years.
As a meme, this type of attack still exists and is still effective. A quick search for "Obama played golf while" and "Bush vacationed while" yield countless examples. Applying it to Ballmer here was done so jokingly. There are plenty of reasons not to like Ballmer but I haven't seen anything to indicate that the bumbling we have seen out of Microsoft under his watch was the result of disinterest... although the contrary argument (excessive meddling / overbearing control) might ring a little more true to some folks : )
An additional note, not only did the fiddle not exist during Nero's day (he played a cithara) but the historical record (Page 2 of the linked article) actually contradicts the narrative that Nero, more or less, sat on his ass while Rome burnt to the ground and was, otherwise, tone deaf to its impact on the people of Rome. That's not to say he was otherwise a good person/ruler by any stretch of course.
I think this article says more about the ignorance of the author than anything about Microsoft. Microsoft had a huge logistics problem: it had two completely incompatible platforms (Win 7 and Win Phone 7) and a third platform to build (WinRT).
From a software development perspective, the next move was predictable: develop a shared code base that produced as much overlap between the three platforms as possible without taking 6 years to do it.
They did so very successfully. Metro apps can be written for two platforms at once (Win8 & WinRT) and can be easily adapted to Win Phone 8--certainly much easier than you could adapt an OS X app to IOS, right?
As phones get more powerful and Microsoft has more opportunity to merge these platforms, the development space will get easier and easier. As a developer, I think Win 8 (in all its variants) was an admirable first step. I'm on board.
Why would you want to adapt an OSX app to run on iOS? A phone and a desktop are two completely different devices that are used for completely different things, and therefore require completely different apps and user interfaces.
Even if, in many cases, you have two apps with the same name on desktop and phone platforms, people use them for different things. On the phone, they want something that can get basic information and take basic inputs while on the move, whereas you use the desktop for proper work on it.
I could not agree more with these comments, the person writing this article obviously is unable to look at a big picture/long term development plan which EVERY successful company must have. Now when it comes to millions upon millions of users of a certain product (who are used to using it in a certain manner as most are with windows) you cannot completely wipe the floor with everything you have done to this point even if that is your ultimate end goal.
You take steps in the direction you want to go, Windows 8 and all variations of it (RT, WP, Desktop) not only align quite closely in terms of visual style they are beginning to share more and more code with one another.
Author, before you start writing crap like this how about you try considering things from more than one (illadvised) angle......
Are you sure you've understood the article?
Perhaps they read a different article - I can't see any basis for their comments apart from animosity towards AO.
What is interesting is that Andrew didn't say anything about the influence of Larson-Green on Sinofsky and how Microsoft intend to rescue Windows 8 when she is in charge.
"Are you sure you've understood the article?"
Indeed. Apparently, one of them doesn't even understand what "logistics" means.
Exactly, the issue is not whether it is technically possible to deliver the same applications across all types of devices, but rather whether it is appropriate to even try. I would agree that it is not, since the use cases of each device class are so different.
I can't see why you'd want to run the same app on phones and desktops, but leaving that aside, given that this was the goal, Windows (Phone) 8 still fails at it.
When all's said and done Windows (Phone) 8 is a huge pile of APIs balanced precariously on top of the old API, Win32, but with the disadvantages that on Phone and ARM platforms you can't get at Win32 and the XAML between the three different platforms is different.
> I can't see any basis for their comments apart from animosity towards AO.
Whilst such animosity is often warranted, I don't think yuo have to look that far in this case.
When someone seems to be defending the indefensible, it's often a good idea to look at his posting history. If substantially all those posts are in support of (or in opposition to) one company or other, it's a fair bet you've got a poster with an axe to grind.
It is left as an exercise to the reader to decide whether or not any particular poster has been paid to grind said axe...
"Microsoft feared it would become another Wang".
That was written like it is a bad thing. Really, what male would reject the concept of another wang?
Wang went out of business because it could not addapt.
Enough of this already - unless you have an unexhaustable supply of keyboards to divvy out...
Go look up "wang" in the urban dictionary ;)
At least they could spell it.
I learned a lot about MS today reading various articles. This is going to take some un-f*cking.
Yesterday I installed Windows 8 and Office 2013 (I'm a Technet subscriber ) after falling for some of the positive hype. Luckily I had some time on my hands.
I'm sorry, but I just couldn't do it. After 8 hours of fighting Metro and failing to find things that are "just there" in Win 7 I was starting to get wound up. Even the charms bar search function appears to be defective...gives you different results depending if your are in an application or not.
It took me 30 minutes of Googling to figure out how to add my gmail account in the metro mail application. Turns out the "accounts" button I needed does not appear until you first sign in with a MS account!!! Why should I have to add an unused MS account in order to use my gmail?
I want to work with my PC, not fight it every time I want to do something my way!!
I eventually reformatted and went back to Windows 7.
I'm keeping Office 2013 but only because I managed to find an option that turns it from all white to shades of grey so at least I can tell one part of the UI from another. WTF is the all white color scheme about?
So, it turns out this Sinofsky is pretty much responsible for everything I have disliked about Microsoft for the past 10 years including but not limited to the ribbon and Win 8 / Metro.
Fuck that guy.
Microsoft got themselves in a real pickle. They were on top of things 10-15 years ago and just sat on their hands unwilling to take any chances that could risk hurting their cash-cow. Meanwhile Apple and Google had nothing to lose by dabbling in the mobile market, and they won big. So how does Microsoft look relevant again without playing catchup with products that look like Apple/Google knock-offs? Meanwhile, Windows and Office may be Microsoft's bread and butter, but in the long term, the choice of OS and spreadsheet/word processor will be marginalized. I mean, do people get excited about what the next version of Office will have in it, or care what OS their, say, tablet runs? No. And by forcing their established user base to learn a new UI with Win8, they are forcing potential customers into pondering other options, like MacOS, if they already have to learn a new OS anyways.
EXACTLY!! This is what happened to me with Nokia when I was forced to "upgrade" to an early version of Symbian after my much coveted 6310i.... the rest, unfortunately for Nokia, is history.
I said to myself "well if I have to learn something this radically different I might as well go with something completely different" Same amount of effort but you have complete freedom to choose!
Couldn't agree more.
There are people who come out with the new SQL, and Linq, and c#4, and then there's this woman who wants to make everything look like a colour shade discerment test, and this man wants to make your computer something that looks like a games console.
Jesus shit. They want a beating. I've gone Android, despite it effectively being a portable spy device for Google, because if I wanted a toy, I'd buy one.
Tablets aren't computers. They're entertainment centres.
And the ui for visual studio 2012. Is that designed to cause depression. It looks like a 2-d graveyard where voldemort might come back to life. How do you work out what's a button?
Who is in control of MS? What are they doing?
What a mess indeed that you cant figure out how to use the search function properly.......I have windows 8 pro installed, all my apps and devices are running great and actually smoother than under windows 7 and I am not looking back.
Glad you were able to change the color scheme though on office 2013 I bet that felt like an accomplishment. I guess anyone can get a technet subscription these days ehhh........
I think one of the points he was trying to make is that the default settings and the way they try to make you run out of the box is poorly thought out.... as is metro/ modern UI etc etc etc ... You shouldn't need to use google to make your email work!
Having installed Windows 8 on a tablet (Acer Iconia W500), I can confirm that Google was a great help when it came to making it usable and useful. This is the least intuitive interface since some of Creative's UI efforts.
Having to use Google for help is somewhat ironic isn't it?
Well let's face it - Visual Studio was already a pretty good cause of depression.
First we lost multi-tasking.
Then we lost colour.
Then we lost overlapping windows.
Then we lost interest.
What's Windows 9 going to be? A text mode UI?
You don't need to reformat if you have HDClone and a large USB backup drive.
Expecting exactly the same aggravation I backed up my Windows 7 install with HDClone and, following a quantity of buggeration with Win 8, restored it to a faster hard drive with no problems at all. Not an investor or an employee, just a happy user.
The UI even infects SQL Studio. Why?
Looks like a games console? Actually a games console looks neater but I wish they wouldn't move things
If I find a supplied application is not user friendly I download something more suitable.
I could not get the Win 7 Outlook Express replacement configured, no menus, so I used Thunderbird instead.
Even the charms bar search function appears to be defective...gives you different results depending if your are in an application or not.
These, oh editors and writers, are the new breed of Power Users of the Register. People too fucking stupid to understand what context-based search is.
This is your market.
Write articles which says Microsoft fails at everything all the time so that they will be happy and click your ads!
Oh wait. You already do.
First we lost multi-tasking.
Then we lost colour.
Then we lost overlapping windows.
Then we lost interest.
Except that none of these are gone except your interest, which is evidently the interest of somebody too stupid to click "Desktop".
Man. I wouldn't like to be the guy that hired you. It beats me how you manage to open this website.
You mean you didn't use Bing
Hey, at least you can run the apps that it comes with by default - I have t plug a second monitor into mine to do that as the primary has too small a res.
I can think offhand of five different ways of making the metro interface go away forever in Win8.
Try killing App* services
I'll bet there's a registry hack
Problem solved.
They seriously expect developers, engineers, designers, network administrators and anyone else doing business with their computers to ever waste time with the messed up childish unusable nonsense that Metro/ModernUI is all about?
Surely Ballmer will try all possible dirty tricks to twist numbers and claim that Windows8 is a success and everyone wants Metro and everyone is buying Metro and loving it. Just lies.
Windows8 is way worse than Vista.
Vista had bugs BUT it was still usable. And once the bugs got fixed it worked pretty well already with SP1.
Windows8 it's a fraud and a nightmare to any user.
It's a mess even for anyone playing games on their PCs.
The whole Metro fraud has to go. Eveyrone involved with Metro must be fired. Starting with Ballmer.
out of curiosity, have you actually *used* it?
...or crack?
It's even more stupid on Windows Server. Everything is launched from the Metro tiles but everything runs on the desktop.
Oh and of course the Server Manager is redesigned so that now you can't find anything you want. To say nothing of the awful Web interface they've replaced EMC with.
Doubt anyone's wondering whether he uses crack ...
But what I still cannot fathom is why they didn't scale WP8 to tablets and keep W7 as an evolutionary product for desktop and enterprise. WinRT is really some sort of nothingness that's not really needed.
This cannot all go on Sinofsky's toes and Ballmer must take a large portion of the blame, it's his watch after-all.
What I can't fathom is why:
Metro apps can't just sit in a Window on the desktop, even if that's a large fixed size one to match Metro expectations
Live Tiles (known everywhere else as widgets) can't work on the desktop, as just another OPTION
classic mode support had to be killed
detailed desktop theming had to die
There was a correct way to unify the platforms but it was to partially unify them, with the Metro subset a Metro-on-desktop experience. With the desktop a real user choice between classic and Metro modes. Of course that would further expose the bareness of Metro to even casual viewers but at least we'd be spared the pointless context switches.
The PC manufacturer aren't really behind Win8. A few token products, but it's not like wholehearted support and if corporates aren't interested why should any development shop be bothered with it. You would have thought Microsoft of all people would understand you get the corporates onboard first and drag consmers kicking and screaming behind you. That's the whole reason Apple had such crap market share in 'real' computer markets.
If you have not used windows 8 for longer than 20 minutes when you installed it, realized it was a lot different than windows 7 or any earlier incarnation of windows then decided (subliminally or not) that you were not smart enough to learn a new system or just flat out don't want to thats cool, but don't flame windows 8 unless you actually have a good amount of experience with it. A lot of people I see commenting on "Metro" here have either obviously not tried it (yes that's you guy who cant use the search feature), are not willing to try or are incapable of learning something new.
Once you have windows 8 set up with all your shortcuts added into the metro interface for desktop apps and customized your start screen as to how you like to use your pc windows 8 is actually a pleasant surprise.
I am a department manager who manages a team of people at work, on the team are many different characters, one is an older lady that can hardly use a computer, she also cannot learn to use it more than she does now no matter how many times she is shown time saving, effective ways to work sometimes you cant teach an old dog new tricks. If you are blogging on a tech site I hope for all our sake that you are not too old to learn some new tricks, windows 8 is cool and surprisingly productive, give it a chance and you might find you like it but sshhhh don't tell anyone!!
So when I am asked to look at a third man's poorly setup windows 8 computer without any shortcuts, I am what? Probably hot and surprisingly unproductive?
"If you have not used windows 8 for longer than 20 minutes when you installed it, realized it was a lot different than windows 7 or any earlier incarnation of windows then decided (subliminally or not) that you were not smart enough to learn a new system or just flat out don't want to thats cool, but don't flame windows 8 unless you actually have a good amount of experience with it.

Quite right. I have been cutting pizza using a knife and more recently using a pizza cutter with great success. These new fangled pizza scissors that you are waxing lyrical about certainly get the job done but the trouble is you get pizza all over your hands, when there is really no need to.
Windows 8 cannot fail, it can only be failed.
I pity the poor sods who have to work under you. Great attitude!
OK, leaving aside the fundamental impedance mismatch between touch and desktop UI metaphors, we geeks could probably hold our noses, learn to configure away the worst bits of it and set it up so it is vaguely usable again, because after a lifetime of it we're used to reconfiguring our brains and spending hours tweaking to adapt to badly designed products
That's not the point. The point is the vast majority of users are like your "older lady" and we are going to have to support them. That is a sword of Damocles hanging over the IT world and everyone except Microsoft and a few gadget freaks knows it.
Not really sure how you can say "now Microsoft has mobiles running on the NT kernel. That's a great achievement.", when the NT kernel was originally written processor agnostic (MIPS, x86, Alpha, PowerPC). If you look at the hardware spec of the machines it was targeted at originally, all of them are completely dwarfed by today's average mobile phone - first NT machine I installed was a 150MHz Alpha with 64Mb RAM. As it's a microkernel architecture, the "achieveent" was really stripping out all the cruft that had accumulated over the years so that it could run on a phone that has the specs of a PC from about 2000 (ish).
Still, at least that old NT 3.51 install was (supposedly) 64bit, apart from the apps. Funnily enough, it's still the same case over 15 years later.

While I had assumed that teaching overseas was not possible for me, I recently found an American school that not only has reasonable tuition but reasonable tuition with special ed (my son is very mildly autistic - think Aspergers but not quite). The school is in Mexico City. I interviewed last with with one of the ITESM schools at the TESOL conference and while I have my fingers crossed, I dont want to hold my breath. I would like some advice about looking for university work and or good work at a colegio. What is the expected salary ranges for these jobs? I am also planning to go down to DF after graduation to check things out for myself. Any advice on how to use that time most effectively is greatly appreciated. I not only need to look for work (assuming the interview does not result in a job) but I need to get a feel for transportation, and other living costs. Back to top birdJoined: 30 Mar 2003Posts: 3Location: Mexico City Posted: Tue Apr 29, 2003 9:16 pm Post subject: With your Masters in TESOL and specialties in CALL and composition, I am sure you can get a job at a university here in Mexico City or anywhere in the country for that matter. However, you will probably not be as a full timer and put on a regular payroll (those with doctorate degrees get those positions) but rather as an adjunct, paid by the hour. Where I teach, those with a Masters make 225/hr (pesos) and the maximum # hours per week one can teach is 15 (few get that many hours). One can always supplement income with private classes but that usually involves unpleasant trudging around this monstrous city! As for schools with special ed programs for your son, I don't know of any off hand but I do know that any decent private school here is pricey. My children's elementary school is 2500.00/mo. (plus books, yearly registration, uniforms etc.) and many others are more dear. Secondary tuition is more expensive; high school even more. Don't mean to discourage you, just want you to know some facts before you come. I do believe Mexico is a wonderful place to live dispite its "flaws" and for kids, its a great place to grow up.

That's a lot of plane rides, and doesn't even include his frequent international flights.
Now granted, boarding a private charter flight that is stocked with a food spread as fancy as your Aunt Edna's holiday best isn't as annoying as most travel. But road games still involve packing.
And while a pristine Tumi rollerboard clearing security and being placed on board — by someone else — isn't the equivalent of cramming the car full for the trip to Uncle Merv's, Thanksgiving does begin the holiday season.

I think the thing to remember is that they're borrowing Ainu motifs... the villagers are not actually Ainu. In fact, there's some indication (the mutations) that this may be far into the future or a completely alternate reality.
Actually, its interesting to me that pretty much every country has their own versions of folk heroes who rise to overthrow unjust/oppressive and just plain incompetent rulers. There's a reason "rule of law" and regular free elections are a Good Thing.

Does an official manga version of Utawarerumono actually exists??
If not, are there any plans or rumors about one in the future??
Remember, I am not asking for a link or an address to download anything. I just wanna now if a manga exist or not. Dont come crying to me if you get banned for postings things you were not supposed to in the first place.

I've seen it translated as "The one being sung" or "That which is sung" or "Those which are sung" .... my understanding is that it is a label for the traditional stories and legends sung or chanted and the word has Ainu linguistic connections. Think of old stories sung by ancient peoples as they sit around the fireside in the evening.

So it's kinda like the Bard's Tales, or Song of Sages or something like that?
Historic accounts that are turn into songs so that they will be remembered and passed to the next generation...

aye.... like Homer's Odyssey, the tales of Ulysses, or the original Beowulf. Beowulf is actually pretty cool sounding in Old English but it might as well be a foreign language to most people. When I studied it in college, the prof had a nice habit of placing the script in three columns:
/Modern English/Middle English/Old English .... suddenly all those mangled syllables made sense and you could see the evolution of the language. He had a good voice and would sometimes chant the original script excerpts. People would even stop outside in the hall to listen.
Tales that were chanted or "sung" (makes it easier to remember for oration) often by people who specialized in storytelling.

"The one who is admired"
If the 'uta' was translated as 'song' then the 'mono' would have been translated as 'thing' as opposed to 'person'. So it would have been "The thing which is sung".
"The one being sung" doesn't make sense from a Japanese context because you don't 'sing' someone like you do in english (unsung heroes) so it would never have been written like that.
Well this is what a friend told me and he said it was the people on 2ch who complained about the mistranslation by fansub groups.

I'd pay more attention to 2chan if it weren't for the problem that I trust my Japanese professors more than them - particularly in regard to 2chan's command of the english language and what makes a good translation. "The one" doesn't necessarily refer to "someone" in English --- also corresponds to "the item" or "the thing" or even "that".
The professor I trust the most in translations thought "That which is sung" carried the best intended meaning of the words in context of "that" being the ancient chants of heroic stories and legends.

I too did wonder if what was the true meaning of "Utawarerumono".
I did refer this to my japanese language teacher and after some time he told me that it is translated as Uta(song), wa(topic marker), reru(sung) mono(things or person). Since uta(Song) was at the front, so mono will be refered as "things" to support the subject at the front.
"The song that was being sung" was his conclusion.
I do thing this makes sense.

While there may be debate as to which kanji it is (though there's a very good chance one particular one is correct one, based on the context with which this word was used in the game), it should be fairly certain that
うたわれるもの is broken down into うたわれる decribing もの, with うたわれる being the passive form of うたう.
As for the Ainu-related definition mentioned by Vexx, this is the page I use as reference:

No, I am serious of what he says. Actually, the traslation varies and can be up to the person who translate it. Even the earlier tranlation was "Not really human" is being rejected and a few more different translation pop out. So I do think there is no definate one but since many prefer "The one being sung" is also accurate in my opinion since the fansub use mono as "the one".

As vexx mentions もの can have various meanings. 者 which is person or 物 which is things. So for now I assume we agree that "The one that is being sung" cannot be correct because as I mentioned earlier if the うた meant 歌 then 者 cannot proceed it because it doesn't make sense in japanese.
As for translations I probably wouldn't trust 2ch (different from 2chan) compared to my professor's either. But this isn't actually a translation issue (well not in the sense of between one language to another). It's an issue of understanding what the hiragana is.
While うたわれるもの can mean
歌われる物 (The thing that is sung)
it can also mean
謳われる者 (The one who is admired)
(v1) to be admired; to be stipulated; to be clearly expressed)
and it is the second one that the people on 2ch believe to be the correct interpretation of the hiragana.
In terms of context it also makes sense because hakuoro will go on to do many great things and will recieve the people's admiration (even at ep4 it is already evident that he is someone the villagers admire).
But it is up to you on how you interpret it I suppose.

Hehehe, actually, when I ask my teacher to translate it I never tell him where I got this from...So he based it on the dictionary.
I suppose you are right on this. The title reflects on the person who does great things.

Like many clever sayings, it is probably intended to be interpretable in a number of ways like a subtle pun.
Seriously.... it makes sense to me that "songs" and chants tend to be made about individuals a people admire so I can see how linguistically the term could overlap. Languages are full of idiomatic expressions that don't really mean what their "literal" translation might imply or be subtly different.

podium shots aren't just about looking good for the pictures, but they are also about making a statement.
and roman kilun had a couple of statements to make.
the last race of the day was the madison and roman had a few things he wanted to make clear.
shot #1:
the superhero stance. also known as, you might be bigger than me, but i am better than you.
sometimes roadies come to the track, and they feel a bit....uh... skinny? their upper body is puny and their quads are small. in such situations, roadies can feel a bit more beefy and secure by asserting their presence by taking up physical space. this is done best by assuming a super hero stance, with wide stance and arms on hip. roman displays this perfectly on the podium.
as you can see, everyone on steps two and three is looking off into the distance, averting eye contact, smiling awkwardly, and pretending they don't care that they got lapped.
also, by standing near the front of the podium in a wide stance, he makes it clear to the world that the only reason the lap was taken was because of him. as you can see, his partner just stands squeamishly in the background and waves his hand in the air as if saying: "hey mom, i was there too!"
shot #2:
roman also shows in this second podium shot for the madison, that he is.... well, honestly, i am not sure what to make of it. let me think...
no, i don't think that is roman's style.... really, i think it was more along the lines of this...
seems a bit odd, but roman is getting married soon, so perhaps he was doing a little bit of practice for the reception...?
it would have been really cool if he could have snuck in a fireman's hat- but maybe he is saving that one for the national championship. he is doing the team pursuit there, so let's hope that dr. kay can get the rest of roman's teammates to show up on the podium in full-on village people garb.

I decided to make only 1/3 rd of the recipe so that I will have to make use of one 8oz block of cream cheese and adjusted all the other measurements accordingly. The crust was made as given in the recipe, but I added 1/4 cup of pecans to the food processor along with the graham crackers (1/3rd recipe) and crumbled it. The preparation of the cheesecake batter went without incidents. I baked the cake in a tart/quiche pan with fluted sides and removable bottom. I was planning to make some swirls on top with a different colored batter containing either chocolate or strawberry puree, but honestly in the end I just forgot!!
JM and I are not really cheesecake people, though we do enjoy it very rarely. But I must say that both of us enjoyed this cheesecake. I thought that the recipe was really simple and quick. The cheesecake was really smooth, beautiful to look at and delicious. I could proudly say that my first cheesecake experiment went without any major hurdles. My only complaint to myself was that since I reduced the recipe by 1/3rd, I couldnt get any traditional/typical pictures of the mile-high cheesecake slice!! :-) But the reduction in the recipe made the portions that we had, really enjoyable. Eventhough the crust appeared a bit dark and I thought that it was soggy, that was not the case. It was probably a bit moist (not soggy at all), because of the pecans? Anyways, I regret that I forgot to make swirls on the cheesecake and I couldnt make any exotic combinations this time. But I am happy that we fully enjoyed our first home-made cheesecake and I would suggest this recipe to my friends!!
Hope you all enjoyed reading through my experience and comments. Check out all my previous Daring Bakers Challenges here.
** Lavender-scented cheesecake w/ blueberries - heat the cup of heavy cream in the microwave or a saucepan until hot but not boiling. Add 2 tbsp of lavender flowers and stir. Let lavender steep in the cream for about 10-15 minutes, then strain the flowers out. Add strained cream to cheesecake batter as normal. Top with fresh blueberries, or make a quick stovetop blueberry sauce (splash of orange juice, blueberries, a little bit of sugar, and a dash of cinnamon - cook until berries burst, then cool).
** Cafe au lait cheesecake with caramel - take 1/4 cup of the heavy cream and heat it in the microwave for a short amount of time until very hot. Add 1-2 tbsp. instant espresso or instant coffee; stir to dissolve. Add this to the remainder of cream and use as normal. Top cheesecake with homemade caramel sauce (I usually find one on the food network website - just make sure it has heavy cream in it. You can use store-bought in a pinch, but the flavor is just not the same since its usually just sugar and corn syrup with no dairy).
** Tropical – add about a half cup of chopped macadamias to the crust, then top the cake with a mango-raspberry-mandarin orange puree.
** Mexican Turtle - add a bar of melted dark chocolate (between 3 and 5 oz., to taste) to the batter, along with a teaspoon of cinnamon and a dash of cayenne pepper (about 1/8 tsp.). Top it with pecan halves and a homemade caramel sauce.
** Honey-cinnamon with port-pomegranate poached pears – replace 1/2 cup of the sugar with 1/2 cup of honey, add about a teaspoon or more (to taste) of cinnamon. Take 2 pears (any variety you like or whatever is in season), peeled and cored, and poach them in a boiling poaching liquid of port wine, pomegranate juice/seeds, a couple of "coins" of fresh ginger, a cinnamon stick, and about a 1/4 cup of sugar. Poach them until tender, then let cool. Strain the poaching liquid and simmer until reduced to a syrupy-glaze consistency, then cool. Thinly slice the cooled pears and fan them out atop the cooled cheesecake. Pour the cooled poaching syrup over the pears, then sprinkle the top with chopped walnuts and fresh pomegranate seeds.
**Key lime - add zest from one lime to sugar before mixing with cream cheese. Substitute lemon juice, alcohol, and vanilla with key lime juice.
**Cheesecakelets - put in muffin tins, ramekins, or custard cups. Try baking 20-35 minutes, or until still a little jiggly, and cool as before.
Dont forget to check out the wide array of flavor combinations in the DB cheesecake factory this month!
Come back soon for more recipes from Tasty treats! Have a great day!!

CAMBRIDGE, MASS. - MIT saw five different players score in its 5-2 win over Regis College in field hockey action on Tuesday night. Deanna Lentz led the Engineers' (5-5) attack with two assists.
Tech got on the scoreboard 1:41 into the game with Noelle Kanaga connecting on a pass from Christina Stefanescu on a penalty corner. MIT extended its lead five minutes later when Margaret Gentile put in a long-range shot off a feed from Cheryl Texin. In the 17th minute, the Engineers took a 3-0 advantage when Deanna Lentz set up Anna Ayuso for the goal. With less than a second remaining in the first half, Tech was awarded a penalty stroke. Regis goalie Isabell Hall dove to her right to stop Cheryl Texin's shot and keep the Pride (5-5) within striking distance.
After only 41 seconds had expired in the second half, Regis received a penalty stroke of its own. Erin Campbell converted the goal, putting the Pride on the scoreboard and igniting its offense. Regis went on to unleash 19 shots, compared to one from the first half. Megan Roberts, who started the second half in goal for the Engineers, was able to keep the Pride at bay, amassing 13 saves.
MIT's attack reappeared in the 48th minute when Ashley Thomas scored the first goal of her career. Less than four minutes later, Tech went up 5-1, taking its largest lead of the game. Sparked by a defensive save by Arielle Tambini, Deanna Lentz led a fast break and dished the ball off to Amanda Hunter for the score.
Regis responded with offensive pressure of its own, controlling the ball for the remainder of the game. After numerous unsuccessful penalty corners, Elizabeth DeLise scored on a pass from Caitlin Connolly with three seconds left to play.
In the goal, Alexa Herman collected one save and did not allow a goal in the first half for the Engineers. Isabell Hall totaled nine saves in 63 minutes of play while Aislynn Quinn did not face a shot during the final minutes.
The next game for MIT will be on Saturday, Oct. 9 at 1:00 p.m. when it hosts Smith College.
