Reading the Intentional and Not So Intentional Absurdity of Catch 22
I never had to read Joseph Heller's "Catch 22" in high school but chances are if it had been assigned I wouldn't probably wouldn't have finished reading it. The novel is a too-long absurdist, occasionally funny, often sickening accurate and poignant, novel set during the Second World War, of a bunch of men screaming louder and louder because no one is listening them, while sexually assaulting most of Italy.
Weaving throughout the narrative exploration of a myriad of damaged soldiers is the emotional and psychological cost of toxic masculinity, on those wallowing in it as well as to everyone they come in contact with.
The greatest expression here of this cultural malignancy is the bureaucracy of war; whereas war is wage to provide a hierarchy for men to exploit one another, and that bureaucracy is then maintained to continue to wage a futile and pointless war that creates victims as much in those who are bombed as those who are bombing. Perhaps those who order the bombings can be said to be immune to the effects of this culture and the war it wages in reality, but they most certainly have a form letter explaining to "Mrs., Mr., Miss, or Mr. and Mrs. —" that it is they who are the real victims in all of this.
But I also have to wonder how the new Hulu adaption of the book will address the cultural and sexual shortcomings of the book in today's Me Too and Time's Up movements. Or will that charming and wistful reminiscing of the good old days when a fraternity gang raped two underage girls be excised entirely from the retelling?
It's certainly a difficult book to read, and one difficult to say was enjoyed, despite the humorous moments. But for its stark, absurd illustration of the power of communication, miscommunication and misdirection to corrupt and damn, and the effects of war, of unchecked and unrestrained aggression it is an important story to experience. And one that, despite being dated in some aspects, is just as relevant today in the lessons that still need to be learned and the warnings to be gleaned.
Follow me on Goodreads to see what else I've been reading.
Struggling to Read "Lawrence in Arabia"
War, Deceit, Imperial Folly, and the Unbelievably Boring Start to the Story of How American Business Destroyed the World
I'm currently listening to Scott Anderson's "Lawrence in Arabia" through my Libby library audiobook app and it is remarkably unengaging.
I'm struggling. Would it be better to read rather than listen to it? I'm not sure if that would matter much—there is so much history and political maneuvering, so many individuals beyond the principle figures that are constantly being introduced and threaded into the convoluted history of European and American interference in the Middle East on the brink of war that I'm constantly listening to portions again but coming away not at all more sure of what is happening.
At a quarter of the way through it still feels like an introduction. Although, as I write this, Anderson is now touching on the beginnings of the Armenian Genocide, the German spy who's brother and nephew would both go on to be the first and seventh presidents of Israel, and the scathingly passive aggressive letters Lawrence sent his incredibly abusive mother regarding the death of his youngest brother, who was her favorite child.
So, one hopes I spoke too soon and the threads of crumbling empires at war, religious communities searching for political identities and oil-hungry corporations manipulating them all begin to tighten together into a more engaging narrative.

Refusing Healthcare to Patients with Obesity and Other Forms of Obesity Discrimination in Healthcare
Here is an alarming article on refusing care to patients with obesity. It describes a measure in the National Health System in which patients with a BMI over 30 and patients who smoke are refused surgery for 6-12 months unless it is for cancer or a life threatening situation. Does this sound far-fetched for the United States? There is evidence of an unconscious discrimination "weight bias" among healthcare providers in America now in which less treatment options are presented to patients with obesity. Additionally, some treatments such as joint replacements are limited in cases of a BMI over 40. Ironically, treatment for the disease of obesity is hard for patients to find at the same time and frequently the same physicians are not recommending it and insurance companies are not reimbursing physicians for it.
There is another form of "weight bais" discrimination in the health care system- a trend of examining obesity treatment and expecting it to save health care costs in order to argue for coverage. While obesity treatment likely does save money in the mediium-term due to less health care costs and less lost time at work, other medical treatments such as chemotherapy and hemodialysis are not expected to save money in order to be covered by employers or insurance.
There is evidence based medical treatment for the disease of obesity based on current treatment guidelines. If you have obesity, you may need long term medical care.
Come learn more about ambitious medical treatment for obesity at rainiermd.com with Dr. Valerie Sutherland, MD, Board Certified in both Internal Medicine and Obesity Medicine.

Just the friends I have made playing with CotP on test server and relaunch of Atlas so far Do you agree to abide by the rules set forth in the Covenant of the Phoenix Charter and Chapter policies? Yes Tell us a little bit about yourself. I previously filled out application but did so not logged into my account. I am a fan of base builder games and have enjoyed Atlas since launch. I am a backer of Star Citizen and will be playing that game as well. I was previously in Team Legacy but never really got established with them as they jumped around to so many different games and never got any traction as the games were disappointing to their leadership (wildstar, Everquest next, blackdesert) I have a 2 year old daughter, so fond my gaming time to be late at night PST. I am already in the company within Atlas. Wanted to make sure I wasn't missing any steps of the recruitment process. Game character name (for contact)?

The Lost Girls: A Generation of Little Women Growing Up Too Fast
Grown women are waging a war on girlhood. Gone are the days of styling Barbie hair and baking cookies in your Easy Bake oven. Now little girls are clicking away with lacquered nails on the keys of the latest cell phone and fussing in the mirror with lip gloss and mascara. No more playing dress up in mom's high heels and sultry dresses. Now sex appeal comes in size 6-14. Little girls are growing up way too fast. They are womanish, but not mature; the distinction between the two is immensely significant.
Maturity is a matter of understanding responsibility, grasping life lessons, and handling situations gracefully and wisely. A girl who is womanish has the appearance of a woman, in dress and manner, but she is really just a lost child. We are facing a generation of Lost Girls, but unlike Peter Pan's companions, these girls are desperate to grow up long before they need to.
From the toys and clothes marketed to these impressionable girls, to the "role models" picked out by the media, the pressure on young girls today is incredible, it's everywhere, and it's doing damage. Dr. Robyn Silverman, a child and teen development specialist writes, "Even our daughter's clothes and favourite dolls and toys are getting a boost, a lift, a pout, and a "push" to grow up sooner and sexier than ever before . You just have to wonder, are the retailers kidding?
Apparently not. On my sister's eleventh birthday she requested a crop top. I was shocked that she wanted such a provocative piece of clothing , and a little pissed that Justice, "a virtual clothing candy store for the smallest Fashionista" (according to their website) carried crop tops as well as bikini tops and press on fingernails. What the hell does a girl between the ages of 6 and 14 need a French tip manicure for anyway?
I left Justice $25 poorer and with an ill feeling. It wasn't the sickly sweet smell of their signature scent or the glare of garish colours and far too many sequins. I was weighted by the sinking feeling that little girls today and our future seem doomed to inescapable insecurity brought on and perpetuated by a market that is selling them an ideal of beauty and promoting an image of sexiness before they get their first training bras.
While I agree that retailers have just about lost their money-centred minds, selling makeup and bustiers to teenyboppers, I have to question the judgment of the parents who buy these things for their daughters. There would be no supply if there wasn't a demand, that's a fairly basic rule of economics. Who is responsible for the deterioration of girlhood: the ones who sell the products and ideals or the parents who help their kids buy into it?
These are popular trends for the contestants on Toddlers and Tiaras...and Playboy models. There is nothing right with this picture.
Image from:
Case in point, TLC's hit show (a hit for reasons I am still unable to comprehend) Toddlers and Tiaras. Mothers dress their children in provocative little outfits and teach them to prance and preen for a panel of miserable looking judges in hopes that they would be crowned a pageant winner. And while these pageants have been around for decades, the competition of today has crossed all sorts of boundaries.
It isn't enough to be cute anymore. Today's Grand Supreme pageant princesses border on plastic. I have watched enough episodes of Toddlers and Tiaras to be traumatized by the plucking, tanning, combing, waxing, tweezing and general torture these poor little girls endure at the hands of their parents. But what appals me most, even more than the atrocious attitudes these little girls have (after all, it isn't hard to see where they get them), are the tears some of those girls shed when they get fed up with the falsified glamour and preening and parading. It breaks my heart to see a little girl lose the battle with her mother to just be a kid.
Generations of little girls in the past got a chance to experience girlhood for what it really should be—a learning experience, a freedom to be wild and careless, a chance to long after womanhood but still enjoy all the perks of being a kid. It saddens me to know that women who got to enjoy being little girls are robbing today's little ladies of the opportunity to do the same for something as petty as financial gain and thinly-veiled selfish ambition.

Edmonton's Capital Insurance Brokers had outgrown the space from which it operated and needed to find a new home.
The provider of home, auto, and life insurance products for residential and commercial clients throughout Alberta was in need of additional staff to lighten the workload of existing agents. But the space which it had occupied since its founding in 2005 was just too small to accommodate more people.
Owner Jim Carducci found a suitable commercial condo property to purchase. The new location had sufficient space for more staff and would enable Capital to work more efficiently.
With BDC's support, Capital Insurance was able to purchase the commercial condo and make interior improvements to the space. BDC, recognizing the company's growth potential, provided high-ratio financing which helped the business preserve working capital while managing the move and expansion.
The new location makes for a more comfortable work environment and has led to increased productivity and a marked improvement in morale. And, in turn, this has had a positive impact on customer satisfaction.
"From the initial purchase of the commercial condo to the completion of construction, my account manager made the process as simple and flawless as possible," said Carducci.

What are Blue Cut Anti Glare Lenses ?
As the name itself implies Blue Cut Anti Glare Lenses are special ophthalmic lenses that block or filter the high intensity blue light that computer & mobile screens emit. These lenses are incorporated into the ophthalmic frames. This is a multi purpose lens type. Although they are mainly engineered for computer users only but they can be used for other general activities also like playing outdoors, driving etc. This is also a preferred lens type by photo editing professionals. They are also known as Clear Lenses or Blue Block Lenses but the function is same.
How do they work?
Like we explained above that Blue Cut Anti Glare Lenses block the screens rays. Not only they block the rays but also provide slightly improved visual clarity by reducing the dazzling glare of the screen as they also have an anti reflective coating on the surface. Since they have glare reduction quality, this enabled maximum visible light to pass through the lenses. More light transmission simply means better visibility.
What are its features ?
There are various brands of Blue Cut Anti Glare Lenses in the ophthalmic market. However only few of them provide a comprehensive solution. Below are some key qualities that an ideal pair of computer glasses must posses:-
✓ Anti Glare Coating – to provide slightly improved optic clarity
✓ Anti Blue Light Coating – to provide defense against blue light
✓ Hydrophobic Coating – to resist water marks on the lens surface
✓ Anti Electromagnetic Coating – to block electromagnetic radiations
An important article that busts all myths about Anti glare glasses
How can you identify these lenses?
There are certain signs that your lenses are genuine Blue Cut Anti Glare Lenses. First of all they will be non colored and the view will be crystal clear. There will also be a shiny layer on front & back surface of the lenses and that shiny layer will appear either green/ blue or yellow when you tilt the lenses. We can not call these lenses are colored ones because it is just a mild shade of the said colors. One of the most popular methods to test these lenses is to use a blue light torch and throw its beam through the lenses. If the beam surpasses then it is not a genuine pair. A real pair would mitigate the intensity of the blue light. However this method is applicable only for non colored lenses. Some lenses require a proper professional lab testing to understand about its efficacy. As a rule of thumb it is best to Buy Blue Cut Anti Glare Lenses from a reputed brand only. For ex: Zebriana (India)
What do you experience ?
Now this is important. As you are intended to order the glasses with Blue Cut Anti Glare Lenses you must be curious to know what it feels like when you wear those lenses. In terms of the feel, there may be no difference but the view will be slightly improved. Technically the lenses will certainly provide protection against the rays of electronic screens. A cool thing that people around you will notice is the beauty of the lens appearance. They are not like any ordinary non anti glare lenses. In fact your specs will also not reflect back the flash of the camera in a photo-studio and the picture will appear much decent. If you are you night driver then this could be a good choice as these lenses do not lose much light when there is already scarcity of light at night.
Anti Reflective vs Anti Glare vs Blue Cut Lenses, which is the best choice?
Anti Glare Lenses and Anti Reflective lenses are synonymous. If you have to pick one among the two lens types then without any second thought, Blue cut lenses should be your choice. The reason is that Blue Cut Lenses already have an anti glare coating on the lens surface and this helps reduce the dazzling glare of strong light source to some extent. A pair of eyeglasses equipped with simple anti glare lenses should be considered as an outdated product. In most of the ophthalmic lens manufacturing companies have stopped producing simple anti glare lenses as the consumer base is more inclined towards the latest blue cut technology lenses and is a good choice for an average computer user.
What about the blue cut lenses price & cost?
Generally the blue cut lens price falls anywhere between INR 1500 to 2500 but at Zebriana®, you may order the computer eyeglasses equipped with Blue cut anti glare lenses priced at around INR 2000 (with frame). This price depends on factors like lens material & lens coating etc. When you buy a pair of these lenses, you actually pay for a strong lens material that won't break easily and certain optical lens coatings such as Hydrophobic Coating, AR Coating, Anti UV Coating and of course Anti Blue Light Coating. Zebriana® branded blue cut lenses price would ensure that you have all those coatings in your lenses and stay there for a longer period of time. As a word of caution, don't fall in the trap of cheap products. There are some sellers offering glasses with low quality lenses at unrealistically low prices. We have observed that coating of such glasses get peeled off within few days. Moreover, a sudden breakage of lenses while you are wearing the eyeglasses may cause serious injury to the eyes. Hence for your eye safety it is better not to wear the glasses at all rather than wearing a cheap product that does not meet any ophthalmic standard. The best way is to buy those Blue Cut Lenses from an established brand.
A more sophisticated lens type than a simple Blue Cut Anti Glare Lenses
Although Blue cut anti glare lenses also provide a significant protection against the strong rays of monitor but the trend is shifting towards a new lens type which has become a darling of IT industry. This new lens type is know as Amber Lens. As per the collection of various reviews and feedback of eyeglasses wearers, people actually feel the difference almost instantly. The cooling effect that amber lenses provide is outstanding. So whether you are a regular computer user who does normal internet surfing or data research or you are a software programmer, amber lens type could be your love. The wonder of this wonderful thing is that they don't have any outer lens coating as most of the features are within the lens material itself.

Do you have two sports that you like and one sport that you do not like? My name is Adysen and I am going to tell you about two sports that I like and one sport that I do not like.
One of the sports that I like is running. I like running because it is good for you. I run almost every day. The other sport that I like is hockey. I like hockey because it is fun and it is also fun to skate and do and do practices. I dislike baseball because the ball is really hard so if you get hit with the ball it would really sting. My brother played baseball last year.
I have now told you two sports like and one sport I don't like. Do you have any sports that you like and one that don't like?

Sixth in line
Oh, look! I'm wearing a hat. That can only mean one of two things: 1) I haven't washed my hair in at least two days, or 2) my hair just isn't cooperating and I was tired of doing a ponytail. Sadly, there's days like today when I'm wearing a hat because of both of those reasons.
date: 15 Nov 2011 | occasion: nothing
dress: Tulle via the Delightful Dozen (designed by Beatrice) | sweater: thrifted, Savers | hat: Urban Outfitters (similar) | boots: Minnetonka
I was sixth in line for this fun, scoop necked dress. I believe now that it has traveled the country, it's going back home to Beatrice in California. Unlike my hat, I'll be sure to wash it.
Here's how this dress looked on some of the other Delightful Dozen members:
Dear Beatrice | Selective Potential | Lulu LettyJen Loves Kev | Orchid Grey
It just goes to show that a beautifully simple dress can work on a variety of body types and heights. I'm now on the lookout for a scoop necked jersey knit dress cut exactly like this one. Excellent designing, Beatrice!

British Mummy Blogger of the Week
>> Sunday, 10 May 2009
Say it loud and proud: I'm a British Mummy Blogger, and I am inordinately pleased to have been one of the first to have joined. I think that A Modern Mother did a fantastic job in setting this Ning up; such an obvious thing to do, and yet no-one else had that light-bulb moment and got on and did it.
So when she asked me if I would start a new feature to be linked to on the Ning, (why link only once when you can do it twice?) I didn't hesitate for a moment. Would you, she asked me, be interested in writing a Blogger of the Week feature? You can put it on your blog and I will link to it, she said.
Why yes! I replied. Of course, I would be delighted. And that was that.
But then, this afternoon, I took a look at the current list of members on British Mummy Bloggers, and guess what? We're at 235. That's TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY FIVE in old money.
235? How the hell can I pick out just one? But, there you go. Me and my big mouth got me into this, so I guess I just better get on with it. And, having stuck a metaphorical pin in the list, this week I recommend you check out: Noble Savage
And I particularly recommend you check out her post about how talking like a robot will make your child. do. practically. anything. you. ask. ( http://noblesavage.me.uk/2009/04/23/mrs-robot-o/)
See? I'm. practising. Already.

Review: Dive (Tycho, 2011)
By: Sparks
Put on your headphones. Close your eyes. Enter: Dive.
Tycho's sophomore album slowly bubbles to life, creating a vibe reminiscent of laying on a secluded beach -- in another dimension. The late summer sun has warmed the water that laps at the shore, a gentle breeze rustles through the tall grass sprouting from the sand, the sky becomes a kaleidoscope of color. It is, all at once, calming and exhilarating.
The first song bursts awake as the drums come in, setting the tempo for the entire experience. You are then carefully guided along the track list as it all seamlessly flows together.
Dive allows you to get lost in a lush, mysterious world created by Scott Hansen, aka Tycho, and although it debuted in 2011, it remains a treasure in my music library. Dive takes you on a gorgeous fifty-minute journey through a landscape of organic sounds, analog synthesizers, guitars and more. Each track is richly layered, sprawling with audio goodies.
Tycho is almost always the perfect soundtrack for life in general. The music effortlessly combines powerful bass and rhythm with soothing ambiance. I can sleep to this album, go for a run, take a bath, or let it play through my bluetooth speaker while hanging out with friends.
With a discography that now includes four full-length albums, some singles and plenty of remixes, Tycho is here to stay.

What's wrong with image quality in the media
Appearing in the Toronto Star, this article epitomizes the folly of the Megapixel Myth. If we could send David Pogue over to slap some sense into it's author Richard Lautens, we would.
"you want to capture the most pixels possible"
MORE THE MERRIER!!!! lets have a pixel party…
"a camera with more Megapixels does help to improve the quality of a photo enlargement by providing higher resolution"
… Nothing about there being diminishing returns after a certain point, and degradation of quality past that point.
"it is important to realize that the Megapixel count alone does not make for great photo enlargement — an amazing photo makes for a great photo enlargement!"
No shit sherlock! Thanks for the tautology. What about noise and low light performance? Nothing.
"Photographs where the image has soft curves and warm colours will still enlarge well when the resolution is less than optimal"
…Pictures of blurry things look blurry when blurred!
"It is important to remember that photo enlargements are viewed from a distance, so fine graininess can not be seen when viewed from across the room."
Are they now? Especially if you put up one of those fuzzy rope-barriers to keep people from approaching your image.
"you can try to resize the image if you want to print a very big enlargement. However resizing is not always advisable since it will likely cause some degradation of the original image. This happens when the software does the resizing and may cause smoothing of edges, changes in tones, and fuzziness."
The only reason you would ever resize something larger would be to "fuzz" out the visibility of pixel edges, this is called Interpolation. The original image would not be degraded unless you cranked up your JPEG compression and overwrote the original, which would be a silly thing to do.
Then it goes into calculation of DPI, purely advocating quantity and saying nothing about quality.
Read the article, if you dare.

I really love getting into work early – I try to as often as I can. In fact I am writing this at five thirty in the morning. I like to see the University coming to life. The grounds staff have already been at work for an hour or so when I get in at seven in the morning. It is good to get the emails cleared from the day before and reflect on the previous day. It's also a good time to take a look at the calendar and see what the day has to offer.
Then the emails start rolling in as people get to their desks. I am always amazed when I work on emails very late at night or VERY early in the morning maybe before five how many emails come back straight away with an answer – Rob Reed and Joanne Perry must hold the record for this. Soon after the emails start rolling in, the cars start passing my window and the car parks start filling up. Most of the many kangaroos on Campus disappear or laze under the trees as the sun starts to heat the place up. Another day begins.
At about a quarter to nine Heather Andrews (pictured) our Executive Assistance arrives. I always ask her "how was your evening/weekend". She always without fail says "Lovely". And she means it. I have never known anyone enjoy life more than Heather. She brightens up the day for everyone who meets her.
But today I am not getting in early. In fact I am hosting a breakfast meeting at the VC's residence to wish Heather a happy retirement. Yesterday was the final day that Heather told me how lovely her evening had been.
Heather is one of the many unsung heroes we have at the University. Someone who makes it a better place. Someone who brightens up your day.
Heather has worked at the University for many years but I have only had the privilege of working with her for the past three years. She really made me feel so welcome to the University when I arrived. Much of what has been achieved over the past few years has been down to Heather. She has provided with me with wise council. She has listened to me twittering on about all the things I was going to do. For the most part she would make reassuring noises and smile. When the reassuring noises and the smile disappeared I always knew I was on the wrong track. I would then say – "I don't really want to do that do that do I?" she would simply smile and shake her head. And, nine times out of ten I didn't do it. Please don't ask me about the one in ten times I did not heed her advice.
So today Heather parts company with CQUniversity. I know she is going to have a great retirement with Ian her partner. The whole of the University community wishes you all the very best and thanks you for a job well done.

Thursday's weekly update of the US Drought Monitor showed a large area of North Alabama, Tennessee, and North Georgia in "moderate" (D1) drought. According to Alabama's State Climatologist Dr. John Christy, it would take around four to six inches of rain to end the building drought.
That's not looking very likely.
"Hit-or-miss" showers and storms are the only hope for rain in the near-term, and we do expect at least a hand full of them scattered around North Alabama and Tennessee in the next few days.
The best chance of any substantial rain exists around the edges of the Tennessee Valley through the next seven days. Any one downpour could produce up to a half-inch of rain; that will not be a very common occurrence, though.
Any signs of a switch to wetter weather?
A developing pattern change by next weekend (the first weekend of June) puts us in a more favorable spot for some appreciable rainfall. It's not a guarantee, though. The long-range guidance from the American-run GFS and the European ECMWF ensemble point to an unusually deep trough in the East for early to mid-June.
That would give us a break from the heat and provide a pathway for some more organized thunderstorm activity around Alabama and Tennessee. European guidance over the next 45 days shows a total precipitation accumulation of around six inches. That keeps par with average through July 8th (6.04"), but we need more than the "normal" to get out of the drought.
Keep up with the latest with these hit/miss downpours with WHNT News 19's Live Alert 19; it gives you all of the information you need to stay ahead of the heat and the downpours whether you're working outside or looking for some outdoor leisure time!

Blackhawk helicopter joins effort to find missing Sierra hiker
An Army National Guard Blackhawk helicopter joined the search Sunday for a missing 62-year-old Sacramento County woman who became separated from her hiking group near Horseshoe Lake, southeast of Mono Hot Springs.
The Fresno County Sheriff's Office said the helicopter carried additional search and rescue team members and more supplies to team members already on the ground, eliminating the need for searchers to retreat to the command post for more supplies.
The woman, identified as Miyuki Harwood, of Orangevale, a Sacramento suburb, was hiking last week with a group from the Sierra Club when she became separated from the group. She was last seen about 1 p.m. Thursday.
Smoke from the Rough fire has hampered air and ground crews from being able to see, said sheriff's spokesman Tony Botti. The search team is on ATVs and on foot. About three dozen search and rescue team members are searching various trailheads.

I received an awesome tip over Twitter from gtvdave earlier that Braid would be coming to the PC on the 21st of March for $19.95 through the Impulse service.
Unfortunately I am still new at this Twitter thing and I somehow lost his reply and then got distracted by a bunny instead… um where was I?
Oh yeah, if you haven't played Braid then this is something you just cannot miss. So mark your calendar and make sure that you get your copy at the end of next month.
And if you are a Twitterer (is that a word?) then feel free to add me GavinMannion and explain the finer intricacies of this oddity.

Website: MLD Climatology
Relative article : Montegut et al (2004)
Data Description
sited from http://www.ifremer.fr/cerweb/deboyer/mld/Data_Description.php
General Description of Methodology and Data
We present below a general description of the data and of the methodology used to construct them (for the L2 and L3 data types we produce). In this work, we basically compute advanced ocean variables (e.g. Mixed Layer Depth…) from T/S ocean profiles and from that we construct maps, climatologies or indexes at different space/time resolutions. In the whole process, we can see 3 levels of datasets (cf scroll down menu from Data Access section on the left) :
- LEVEL 1 (L1): ocean Profile Data of a variable (T or S for us) in the form of T(z), S(z) at a given location/date. It can also be called a station when several profiles variables exist. We do not produce nor distribute those date but we give some links from where you can get them (see Level 1 link above or from the menu on the left).
- LEVEL 2 (L2): Pointwise Data of advanced ocean variables computed from the Profile Data (L1). We generate and distribute those data, available from the Level 2 link above, or from the menu on the left.
- LEVEL 3 (L3): Gridded Data in the form of maps, climatologies or indexes of advanced ocean variables. That kind of data is obtained from the L2 data after more or less elaborated statistic treatment most of the time. We generate and distribute those data, available from the Level 3 link above, or from the menu on the left.
Further details about each level of data treatment are given hereunder. You can also find more specific information about each dataset in the Data Access sections.
LEVEL 1: Profile Data
Climatologies of oceanic variables at global/regional scales, such
as ocean surface Mixed Layer Depth (MLD), Barrier Layer Thickness (BLT),
Porosity (BLP) etc… are made available on this website. Those
variables are exclusively computed from in-situ
measurements of Temperature (T) and Salinity (S) made at sea.
These are the basic in situ observations from which we perform our work. For now the two variables we use are the Temperature and Salinity. It is important to note that salinity is not measured directly but computed from conductivity, pressure and temperature (directly measured). As such we can see that we have several sub levels of treatment inside this level 1 data before getting the final data of common variables such as salinity (idem for oxygen).
We are little involved in all the Level 1 processes, including computing variables such as salinity or oxygen and also qualifying them. For this job, we rely on oceanographic data centers and programs.
Those basic observation data of ocean T/S profiles are mainly obtained from the National Oceanographic Data Center through World Ocean Database (WOD), and World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) database, and from the ARGO program. Those are all the relatively high vertical resolution data available since the 1940's until nowdays (e.g. MBT, XBT, CTD and PFL).
The "L1 Profile Data" section simply gives you some links from where you could get those basic T/S profiles data if ever you want to use them as we do.
LEVEL 2: Pointwise Data
Our work consist in producing those L2 and L3 data based on a common IDL tool called GAIO (Generator of Atlas from In situ Observations). It has been initially developped for computing a Mixed Layer Depth Climatology (de Boyer Montégut et al., JGR , 2004 [1]) and encompasses about 60 routines and 20,000 lines of code.
Oceanic variables are estimated directly from individual instantaneous profiles with data at observed levels. Basic quality controls are done added to the different quality flags used from the original datasets of profiles and according to the variable we compute. This kind of data actually represent the main preliminary step in generating gridded fields, and may encompass some information that binned and interpolated gridded fields cannot have. Some of those advanced ocean variables computed from individual profiles are made available on the "L2 Pointwise data" section.
LEVEL 3: Gridded Data
Gridded fields of the L2 computed variables are obtained by reduction/binning of the data on the chosen grid, using the median of all values in each grid mesh. A slight smoothing might then be applied to take account of the noisy nature of ship observations.
Statistical interpolation is eventually used to predict the field values at missing data places. Ordinary Kriging was used for this last step. This interpolation is limited regionally according to the correlation scales of the oceanic variable and the number of basic values in that area, leaving regions without values instead of filled by a doubtful interpolation. It is important to note that kriging may be used as an exact interpolator.
The "L3 Gridded data" section gives you acces to each climatology data available so far, along with some basic analysis plots and the references for details of their construction.

Please Join in Important 'Next Steps Weekend,' Oct. 12-14
By Jean Wallace
We're starting on the path to building our future!
As the Facilities Improvement Team reported in the spring, our church is having growing pains! Simply put, the building does not have the capacity to support growing attendance, is inadequately equipped to support key activities, and needs updating in several critical areas.
In the team report, members who were surveyed voiced their hopes and dreams for what we could become and accomplish with better facilities — think: a commercial-grade kitchen to support events and rentals ... an air-conditioned sanctuary … more space for Religious Education ... a large space for congregation-wide events … quiet space for meditation or small-group ministry. Those are a few of the improvements desired by many.
To build for a better future, the congregation will embark on a capital campaign this year — a congregation-wide effort to raise money for exciting, much-needed upgrades. The plans, rooted in the team's report, will reflect our collective dreams and aspirations. We'll soon hire an architect to help shape the dreams into tangible improvements. When plans are ready (later this fall), everyone will get to have their say about the best options to meet our needs.
More immediately, as we strive to strengthen stewardship and prepare for the campaign, we have invited Barry Finkelstein, Unitarian Universalist congregational stewardship consultant, to spend Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, Oct. 12-14, with us to conduct the Next Steps Weekend program.
During the weekend, Barry will gather information to gain a clear sense of who we are and where we would like to go. He'll generate, and share with us, specific observations and recommendations to help us on the journey. He'll also suggest ways he can provide guidance and coaching.
Throughout the weekend, Barry and church leaders will host meetings to help him get to know us and develop recommendations for the campaign, co-chaired by Jean Wallace and Jenn Oglesbee. Barry will meet with congregational leaders on Friday evening and Saturday morning. On Saturday afternoon, he will host an open workshop for everyone (2 to 3:15 pm, Children's Chapel, on the lower level; child care available).
Barry will participate in worship services with Rev. Peter on Oct 14. After the second service, he will hold an open forum to share his observations and recommendations (a shorter presentation will follow the first service). These sessions will be engaging, energetic and informative. Child care will be available after the services, and we encourage all to attend.
Please join us in welcoming Barry — and in taking the first steps together to build a bright future for the church.

How we think about diseases?
When it comes to this specific topic, most people are ashamed even to talk about that. There are families that because of this feeling of shame they do not even speak with their children so they can stay away from these diseases. Even so, you will be surprised to see how many people suffer from such diseases and they are among us everyday but we do not even know. Is this a thing to be ashamed of? Is it moral to hide such thing of everyone? These are just two questions most people have in their minds and for good reasons.
Of course, most of us will say that it is not moral and sometimes it can be considered illegal to hide such health problems, from the people you get in contact with. Yes, it is very true but how will you look at such a person? He or she will not be seen as an easy person? They will not be judge at all by the society? Everyone believes that if they live a moral life, if they are faithful to their partners and other things like that, it will never happen. This is perfectly wrong. All people in this world are exposed to such situation without their will. Do you think that a sick person wants to be sick?
I will tell you a story about a beautiful young girl, who had just two relationships in her life. The last one lasted for 6 years. She was in college and she had all the future in front of her. One day she got sick. She had the flu but after a month, she didn't felt better, even if she took the tratment as the doctor recommended. Instead of feeling better, she got worse and worse. When she finally arrived at the emergency room and after the doctors eliminated all the diagnostics possible, one of them decided to make an HIV test.
After that test was done, other analyses were made and the final diagnostic was very drastic. She already had AIDS. Her partner was tested as well and he was ok. The doctors considered that he was quite lucky to not be infected after all these years of relationship. The conclusion was that she got infected long before she knew him, which means more than 6 years and she had just one relationship before him. The virus is silent. No symptoms and no clues that she could have such thing, never crossed in their minds.
A girl who just started her life now she was prepared to end it because the illness was quite aggressive now. I give you this example so all of you can understand that this can happen to all of us, no matter how we run our lives and that you don't have to be a prostitute to have AIDS or any other venereal disease. Like that maybe people will understand that nobody must judge anybody, but everybody can help.
AIDS illness or HIV virus are not the only venereal diseases you can get without even know it. There are other illnesses that can destroy your body without giving you the smallest hint they are there. Another disease, that if untreated can also lead to a painful death, is Syphilis. You may say that Syphilis has symptoms. In some situations yes it does, but not in all. I have a story about that too but I will not bore you, dear reader, with that.
When it comes about this disease, the obvious symptoms such as external syphilitic chancre can be observed for a few days or maybe less. Besides that, it is not painful in any way. In very many situations, the syphilitic chancre is not external so it cannot be seen. All the other symptoms can be confused with other affections. If you have a steady lifestyle, you will never think that you have something like that.
People who have hectic sexual lives are much more aware that from to time, quite often actually, blood analysis are more than useful for them. But what about the other people? You can discover such illness by mistake, which is a good thing because you might discover it before they cause too much damage, or when it is too late and the symptoms are obvious but there is not too much left to do. Anyway, Syphilis is treatable at almost any stage of the disease.
What you should know about diseases?
If the virus affected various organs they cannot be repaired. The only thing it can be done is to stop the virus to spread more than it already did. In the tertiary stage of this illness the neurological system and your heart can be seriously affected. A patient with this disease untreated till this stage can become blind or he/she can even die. In the latent stage of syphilis the patient has no symptoms at all. Complete silence. People can live even 25, 30 years or even more without even knowing they have this disease. The nickname of this illness is "The Great Imitator" because all the symptoms you may have during time, can be confused with anything but syphilis.
These are two of the most dangerous and silent venereal diseases ever known. Beside these, you can discover others such as Chlamydia. Untreated Chlamydia can lead to sterility. It may not have external symptoms but most women experience pains during sexual intercourse, urinary stings and vaginal leakages. In most situations, men don't have any type of symptoms but in rare cases they may also experience odd leakages as well. The good thing is that it can be treated in two weeks and if it is discovered in time, which usually happens, it will not leave any unpleasant traces.
Another silent venereal disease is Gonorrhea. Just like Chlamydia it may not have obvious symptoms that can make you think about a venereal disease. The symptoms can make you think about Candida or other affection that has the same manifestation. This disease necessitates an antibiotics treatment, and in few weeks, you can be as good as new.
A very difficult disease and very silent with no obvious symptoms as well is hepatitis B. If you don't have the habit of going to a doctor for regular checkups you have all the chances to find out a little bit too late that you have a deadly illness. The symptoms, such as fever, weaknesses, jaundice, abdominal pains, liver inflammation that may lead to bleedings will make their appearance in the last stage of the disease.
As syphilis and AIDS, it can be transmitted to the fetus in case the patient is pregnant. A patient may have an inactive virus that will not harm the person at all, but still if the patient is pregnant, the newborn must be provided with immediate treatment after birth. When a person has just the inactive virus, he or she does not require any type of treatment but regular checkups each year must be done.
If the virus activates itself, the patient must receive treatment immediately to stop the illness evolution. A person who follows the right treatment can live a long life and he can carry this disease inside of him with no problems. The main advice in this situation is to adopt a safe sexual activity and to adopt a healthy nutrition.
With all these things being said, what you must remember is to go to your doctor regularly and request more than just the usual analyzes no matter how steady and normal your life might be. AIDS, Syphilis and Hepatitis B can be contacted in beauty salons, in dental offices, when you donate blood, or when you necessitate a blood transfusion. This means that no place is safe enough.
My name is Aura and I am a very active woman. I like being like that because I consider that I have many things to learn from this life.
The main reason why I started to write, was to increase my income. In time I realized that this was not my real goal. I wanted to prove to me, that I have the ability to communicate through writing with people around the world.
I like the idea of sharing my knowledge and experiences with other people even if sometimes they may not agree with me. This is maybe the most important thing in this job. You must allow other people to come with their own ideas backed up by solid arguments.
Another thing, that made me fall in love with writing, was the fact that I can do, even if I do it in my spare time, something I really wanted to do my entire life. Expressing myself through writing gives me the freedom that I can' t find when I am at my daily workplace.
With all these things being said, I hope you will find my articles interesting and useful.

If I haven't mentioned this before I grew up as a musically inclined child. I know how to play the piano, alto saxophone, basically any woodwind instrument. I just need to know the finger placements and I'll learn it in a couple hours. I write music, etc etc. I appreciate great music no matter the genre. My favorite genre of music is not hip-hop believe it or not. My favorite genre is R&B. Marvin Gaye, Donny Hathaway, First Album Al B Sure, Bobby Brown, Guy, the list goes on. R&B centers my chi and helps me relax and chill out. After a long day of work I'm turning on some Mary J Blige or Jodeci to recollect myself. It keeps me on a good and steady wavelength. I love the genre but there will never be a dispute in my mind that 90's R&B is the greatest and most prolific time of a music genre in the history of music. I hate to be that guy that always complain about the state of music today because I really don't totally dislike today's music but hearing today's R&B or whatever it is today compared to what I grew up on is like me eating Filet Mignon everyday for years then forcing me to eat banquet tv dinners. Nothing will ever be greater than the 90's era of R&B. 11 reasons why 90's R&B is the GOAT.
Listening to R&B today I feel there are only a handful of artists that really like women in their songs. It's really awkward. Women aren't much of anything in these songs today. I understand songs about being a playa or creeping on girlfriends with other women because artists in the 90's sang about it also but when they sang about it back then there was a level of guilt and remorse for why they were doing so and even if they did it to be a scumbag, they still had some respect for the woman. It was rare that a artist in the 90's went the disrespectful route and when they did it was usually because the woman treated the guy like shit in the song. Think about this. How many R&B songs of today's era can you play in a church for a wedding today? Not many. Today these R&B artists are rappers so they carry the rappers image of "We don't love these hoes." The woman is getting passed around, getting trains ran on her, cheated on in these songs because she's not worthy of being in a guy's presence, she is more of an object and a quick fling. She's just good for bomb kitty, bomb head and nothing else. She has no value. Take today's R&B sex records lyrics and compare it to 90's R&B sex records lyrics. What you will notice is that in majority of today's R&B is that it's way more vulgar and the woman is way more objectified. It's like the guy singing doesn't even have any feelings for the woman at all like a NWA song. In 90's R&B it was more sensual and care involved. R.Kelly's "Seems Like Your Ready" is a good example of this. This is debatably the greatest sex record ever. He describes the woman he's with in the bedroom as if she's a treasure and as if he's not worthy of her. He describes her smell. Her aura. The sexual energy they're exchanging with each other. The ultimate height of their intimacy. He's asking her to take him to her ecstasy. He walks the line of being x-rated and respectful in that song and It seems like he really likes this woman. I don't mind some of the vulgarity in the R&B slow jams of today because that's how almost all of us get down in the bedroom but damn I like making love to my woman too not just banging it out. I like this woman. This isn't just another random woman in my bed I don't care for. I'm a man who appreciates balance. That's all I'm saying.
The fashion in this era for women was so cold to me. Men just rocked a lot of leather but they had some dope fits too. Fashion has come full cycle today and a lot of women are dressing like women in 90's R&B videos. I love it. Every woman I see styling herself like Aaliyah in the Tommy Hillfiger picture, Janet in the "Anytime Anyplace" video, wearing flannels, baseball jerseys or overalls I want to propose to immediately. The cover of Toni Braxton first album was the wave too. Chill and Sexy. Lord, Lord, Lord.
No one has sex to music today. Well I can't speak for anyone else but I've personally haven't done that since I was in college. It's just really weird to do today. I wouldn't mind doing that with a woman I was exclusive with but it's weird because it feels like you have to stay on rhythm with the music while having sex. Anyway I getting sidetracked. 90's R&B slow jams made up roughly 80% of every slow jam mix I made along with some Pretty Willie and Bluestars Pretty Ricky. In high school I was kind of obsessed with my bedroom mix. It was really creepy now that I look back on it but I truly don't regret it. Thank you 90's R&B for making that trend explode.
Majority of the music today is heartless. If you care, you're a sucka. If you care about your relationship, you're weak. If you care about respecting someone, you're stupid. I don't fear much but one of my biggest fears is not caring and being okay with it. I don't want to not care. The world already have a lot of soulless people here. I don't want to add to that number. 90's R&B showed me that it's okay to cherish and care for the person I'm with no matter what anyone thinks. It showed me how to be proud to care. A song like "Stay" by Jodeci where a man admits he misses his woman and wants her to come back home. They were unapologetic about caring in that song. Listen to some 90's R&B and go care for someone. It's good energy.
Cheating been around for hundreds and thousands of years. It's here to stay forever because the way the human mind is setup is so complex and people will forever crave change or be greedy. Some people never cheated on their better half. I commend them for it. I've never cheated in any relationship I was in, mainly because cheating just looks like hard work. I'm too chill for hard work. You have to please more than one woman. Pleasing one woman is already a task in itself. Adding more is just adding more stress. You had the cheating R&B songs. Classics like "Me & Mrs Jones," "As We Lay," and "Down Low." If that "Down Low" video didn't make you not want to cheat you have to be evil. Ron Isley hit R.Kelly with a sledge hammer like Triple H in his prime, left him in the dry ass desert with nothing to drink, and killed Fancy from "The Jamie Foxx Show." She had some nice ass titties. He should've cut her break and dumped her normally instead of killing her, just on the strength of that. Don't wanna waste good titties. It makes you wonder how terrible of a person Ron Isley was that R.Kelly kept taking all his women. Besides the few cheating songs, I loved how in the 90's era that being a one woman man was the wave. How a woman only wanting one man was dope. Being faithful was appreciated and cool. 90's sitcoms were an extension of this too. Martin had Gina and was happy. Overton had Synclaire and was happy. It was beautiful.
I wish my life was like a 90's R&B video. Even the cheesy ones. They were like movies. They told stories. Had cool dance numbers. They entertained. They were refreshing. I don't watch videos anymore, even videos of artists I actually like. Watching videos seem like a job today. If someone doesn't recommend a video to me today I will never see it. I swear. I look at 90's videos today and always wished I directed and shot them. 90's R&B videos has to be responsible for 90% of people's youtube binges.
I don't care how corny it may seem. I'm a romantic guy but in a more chill way. I'm romantic in a way that fits my personality. I don't do the usual things. Nothing wrong with the cliche things though. Singers in the 90's were singing about setting up actual candlelight dinners in their cribs with their shorty. Showing up with flowers in the videos. Throwing flower peddles on their beds. Candles lit all over the bedroom and bathroom. There were more candles lit in 90's R&B videos than a illuminati meeting. It was LIT literally. It was a era of hopeless romantics. It taught me how to really treat a woman. How important it was to actual put in effort to make her feel special and unique. Love was so important in that era.
There were actual remixes. Either the production was entirely different or it was huge guest features that changed the entire dynamic of the song. "I Wanna Be Down" remix is a good example of the latter.
I have to vent on this one. I like kickbacks/parties a lot but I swear man if y'all don't start slowing this shit down on some G shit I'm going to go crazy. Like I said before I like balance. Just give me 4-5 good slow jams. I promise we can stop playing trap music for 4 songs and we will be okay. The function will be okay. All these beautiful women at these parties just begging for to slow wind to some 90's R&B or good R&B period and these DJ's or whoever in control of the aux cord always miss the opportunity. The last time I've seen a DJ play slow jams at a party was when I was in Dallas and of course I was up against the wall like I was at Saints clothes burning with a shorty blessing the kid. Honey's full of liquor of course they will respond to "This Lil Game We Play" by Subway or "Nice and Slow" by Usher. Play the slow jams then play a twerk joint right after to speed it back up again. The closest I get to a slow jam these days is from a Dom Kennedy album. No lie. 90's R&B took slow dancing to another level. It got freakier. Your chances of getting booty off a slow dance increased. It evolved into something special. It changed the game.
In my opinion. Whether you high or a little saucy, hearing 90's R&B while you're not sober just elevates your high. It makes your buzz coast. It's the ultimate background music for your chill sessions. Let's say you have a bottle of wine in the crib. Most likely you're cutting on some 90's R&B while blessing that bottle. When I'm sober I seem to get a lot more work done when I'm listening to 90's R&B. Especially on the creative side. Creativity just flows out of me when I write while I'm vibing to it.
Do me a favor and just youtube performances on the Arsenio Hall Show, Soul Train, In Living Color, and the Apollo in the 90's. 90's R&B music was so fly that it made even a bad performance or a okay performance look wavy. They didn't hide behind explosions, laser shows, or flying in the air like Sting in WCW. 90's R&B performances felt more intimate. The music was so great that the artist could literally just coast their performance and the crowd would still feel it. It made the performances that had more action and movement that much better also.

Razberi-K® raspberry ketone - This is a major aromatic found in red raspberries. Raspberry ketone helps with weight reduction through two mechanisms:
1) Enhancing the breakdown ("burning") of fat - The chemical structure of raspberry ketone is similar to the structures of capsaicin and synephrine, two compounds known to exert anti-obesity actions and alter fat metabolism in favor of fat weight loss. Raspberry ketone increases a process known as norepinephrine-induced lipolysis. Additionally raspberry ketone supplementation appears to result in a higher secretion of the hormone adiponectin. Both of these effects - increased norepinephrine-induced lypolsis and higher levels of adiponectin - enhance fat metabolism.
2) Decreased fat absorption and storage - Raspberry ketone assists in inhibiting a primary step in the absorption of fat, trioleoylglycerol hydrolysis. Additionally, not only does an increase in adiponectin result in increased metabolism of fat, it also is associated with a decrease in fat storage.
Fabenol Max™ Phaseolus Vulgaris L. - The extract from the white kidney bean is commonly referred to as a "starch blocker" or "carbohydrate blocker." This "blocking" effect is due to its ability to reduce the activity of an enzyme known as alpha amylase, which is involved in starch breakdown and sugar absorption. When less alpha amylase enzyme is available, there is a greater potential for more carbohydrates (primarily starchy carbohydrates) to be excreted from the body instead of being assimilated into sugars and stored as body fat. This effect may also support healthy blood sugar levels.
Successfully reaching your target weight and keeping it there may be a real struggle for you, especially if you're a "carb junkie." Not anymore! Phytolean will help you win the war against weight. The Phytolean formula is safe, natural, and plant-based. Unlike weight-loss products that offer unrealistic promises and deliver no results, we guarantee that Phytolean will work for you. Not "may" work, WILL work - Phytolean is that effective!
In a nutshell, Phytolean:
All of these help you to lose weight, maintain ideal blood sugar levels, and achieve optimal body composition without any undesirable side effects that can occur from stimulant-based weight-loss products.
Take 1-2 capsules prior to a meal, especially if high in starchy carbohydrates.

I'm a real-bearded Santa living in the San Antonio, Texas area. Since 2013 I've worked as SeaWorld Santa. Obviously, that takes the bulk of my time from Thanksgiving through New Years Day, but I've also worked with a few local photographers.

Check my Booking Calendar for the times I'm booked with either SeaWorld or one of these wonderful professional photographers.
Which one is my favorite? Every grandparent knows the answer to that. They're all my favorite, but my real favorite is the one I'm with at the moment! But seriously, each has a skillset that majors in a certain area. One may enjoy photographing pets, another loves that perfect baby picture.

Audiodraft is a crowdsourcing platform that connects brands with audio designers form around the world. By organizing a contest, brands can outsource audio production and generate social conversation.
Crowdsourcing is slowly becoming a legitimate way for companies to outsource projects or production work. San Francisco and Helsinki based Audiodraft is a crowdsourcing platform for sound design, a place for brands and audio designers to connect and create projects together. Teemu, Arto and Tommi, Audiodraft's three Finnish co-founders, are fierce advocates of audio branding and consider it a major aspect of a brand's identity. Whether they need an audio logo, a soundtrack for a TV commercial, a jingle or sound design for an electronic device, companies can go to the platform and publish a contest among 16.000 sound designers from 90 countries.
Crowdsourcing connects brands to a wide community of audio designers
Crowdsourcing is somewhat risky – there is no guarantee to find what you are looking for – but it has other advantages: simplicity, choice and the access to end-results. To publish a contest, brands need to write a brief, select a license (worldwide licenses that cover all types of media) and set a prize for the winner. Brands have to pay a $99 fee to post a contest, and Audiodraft charges a price-handling fee of 10% on the prize offered by the brand. Aside from the contests, Audiodraft is also launching a "marketplace" for entries that haven't won, co-founder Teemu Yli-Hollo said. Audiodraft team members handpick the best creations and lets brands buy an exclusive license for those.
Contests work as marketing campaigns
On top of engaging music composers, the Audiodraft contests are designed to engage social network users, through audio. Users can share entries on social networks, post comments, etc. As Teemu Yli-Hollo explained " The contests work as huge marketing campaigns because you can share on social media, and audio production therefore generates conversation about the brand online." For instance, Nokia's recent Audiodraft contest for new ringtones got 6.000 entries, which were played 10 million times in only 4 weeks. Tracks were shared not only among the Audiodraft community, but also across social media, giving great visibility to the brand online.

Dubbed NetVista, the new line of PCs, which actually won't be shipping until May, is the latest entry in what could be called the fancy PC revolution. Following the success of Apple's iMac, several computer companies started to acknowledge the importance of style and simplicity in capturing market share.
IBM will have to go a long way convincing customers that NetVista has the wherewithal to meet their expectations, said Roger Kay, an analyst at International Data Corp., who warned that brand transitions can be tricky.
"NetVista is like an empty vessel that IBM must fill," he said. "It's just a brand with a promise, and it's up to IBM to fill it with meaning over a period of years."
The trend toward style has also invaded the corporate market, but for reasons beyond looks. Because they are smaller, these PCs typically cost less to make. Centralized management and other features also cut management costs. Compaq has launched a nationwide TV campaign for its iPaq, and IBM will follow with its own $100 million campaign. Like IBM, Compaq lost money in the past year on its corporate PCs.
Although IBM is coming to this market later than others, the company can't be cited for lack of variety. The NetVista line will be marketed to corporations and consumers, rather than simply a single market as other manufacturers are currently doing. The NetVista line, in fact, will replace the Aptiva and corporate PC lines over time, the company said. Initially, the company will market four basic models, with variations on processor speed and configuration within each model group. Three of the new computers will come with integrated monitors while the fourth will come with an easy-to-attach monitor. All will come in matte black.
"If you look at personal computing today, it's anything from personal," said Carla Davison, IBM's vice president of desktop systems marketing. "(NetVista) is about simplified computing in a connected environment."
The company is looking to NetVista to recharge its PC division. The company has been losing millions on desktop computer sales. Early this year, IBM pulled out of retail sales to concentrate on Web sales. The Armonk, N.Y.-based computer maker has leaked details about the new PC line in recent months, but kept the name, pricing and availability secret. NetVista is part of IBM's EoN, or "edge of network" initiative, a marketing/technology effort under which Big Blue is promoting not just its products but its ability to tie technology together in a seamless Web.
IBM will initially introduce four versions of NetVista: an all-in-one model built around an LCD display; a legacy-free model with an attachable monitor; a network Internet appliance sold by telcos and others for home use, such as the one recently adopted by Fidelity Investments; and a network computer attached to an LCD display.
Pricing is still not set for any of the models, although the NetVista All-in-One will sell well below $2,000 with a Celeron processor and around $2,000 with a Pentium III chip, according to sources close to IBM. Starting models will feature a 533-MHz Celeron or 600-MHz Pentium III processor, 64 MB of RAM, 20-GB hard drive, CD-ROM or DVD drive, five USB ports and 15-inch LCD display.
The All-in-One, which measures a scant 16 inches by 16 inches by 10 inches, is about 75 percent smaller than typical computers. The guts of the computer are lodged behind the screen. Another interesting touch: a DVD-ROM drive is hidden behind the monitor and drops down when needed.
While the All-in-One is the flagship model of the new line, the more commonly seen computer might be the "Legacy-Free" model. This is a more basic computer that will compete directly against the new wave computers from Compaq and HP. As with the iPaq, Legacy-Free will start around $500, but IBM is betting extras, such as a 256-bit encryption chip, will appeal to large corporations.
What Davison calls "the poster child for EoN," the NetVista Zero-Footprint Thin Client is a network computer attached to an LCD display. Most network computers run all software off a server rather than a local hard drive, but the Zero-Footprint model is capable of both.
The final model, the NetVista Internet Appliance, differs in many respects from the others. Rather than selling it directly to businesses or consumers, IBM is focusing on service providers, such as telcos, brokerages and supermarkets, which would then sell, lease or give away the product to their customers.
Fidelity Investments last month committed to using the Internet Appliance,
which is built around a 10-inch LCD display, and IBM last week cut similar
deals with Bell Atlantic and SBC

Happy Mardi Gras! But that's not the only thing special about this Tuesday--which means it's also #muckedup day! Got a relevant question for the group to tackle? Tweet it to our moderator, and then join the chat at 5 p.m. PST/8 p.m. EST by tweeting with and following the #muckedup hashtag! And on today's Muck Rack blog: the 5 links we loved in January.
"El Bloombito 2016!!!!!" tweets Talking Points Memo's Catherine Thompson of the news that Michael Bloomberg is eyeing a 2016 run for the White House (at about 2,500+ shares currently). "On eve of primary where Sanders and Trump are favored to win, Bloomberg acknowledges thinking of running," observes NYT's Maggie Haberman. "It's happening. Maybe," summarizes Justin Ocean at (you guessed it) Bloomberg Pursuits. "Can Bloomberg just enter the 2016 race or leave already?" pleads Adrian Arizmendi at AJ+. And what was it that brought Bloomberg to this point? He called the "discourse" in the 2016 presidential race "an outrage and an insult to the voters." At the New York Daily News, Josh Greenman reacts, "There's a lot you can say about the level of debate in this election, but 'distressingly banal' is not one of them." Similarly, Texas Tribune's Evan Smith muses, "Yeah he'll play well among the common people." Although Quartz's Steve LeVine is quick to point out, "If Bloomberg runs, it would be uncharacteristic of him to be last-minute as it would be now. So maybe in 2020."
Also trending in politics, NYT's resident conservative David Brooks just admitted he's going to miss Barack Obama. But here's why: "Obamas have not only displayed superior integrity, they've hired people w/high personal standards," Brooks argues. "So has @nytdavidbrooks been excommunicated from the GOP & the brotherhood of the center-right yet?" wonders freelance journalist Jill Lawrence. It won't help Obama get his latest budget passed by a Republican Congress, of course, but it's hard not to contrast Obama's calm with the anxiety of being Marco Rubio. "The n-n-nerves that made #Florida Man @marcorubio act like a robot on TV also responsible for rapid political rise," notes Craig Pittman at the Tampa Bay Times. He's talking about Rubio's habit of inexplicably repeating a scripted line word for word, by the way. "Rubio 2.0 still buggy, plz get the product team on this," jokes Timothy Burke with Deadspin. But don't even think about dressing up like a robot at a Rubio rally, or you'll end up manhandled by Team Marco. Also, that woman whose lewd comment was gleefully quoted by Trump offers equally lewd but positive commentary on Trump himself. Thankfully, we have The Onion to make up for the lack of recent Jeb Bush coverage.
Our last question asked: Betty White is trending everywhere today after proving during the Super Bowl opening that she can do what? By proving that she can dab with the best of them.
Congratulations to Eugene Hunt for being the very first to answer that correctly! Honorable mentions go out to these wonderful people for also answering correctly: Craig Pittman, David Daniel (who thinks Betty, rather than Beyoncé, got the "ultimate #SB50 mic drop"), Robin Tierney, Lucia A. Walinchus (who asks "But really is there anything @BettyMWhite can't do?"), Whitney Friedlander, Carey Bodenheimer, Charlotte LoBuono (who adds "Go Betty! Love her!"), Mark Gibbs (who admits he "didn't know "dabbing" 'til [Muck Rack] asked. Watched Rich the Kid how-to"), Fabiola Camacho (who adds "Her flawless dab clearly intimidated the panthers and we were left with yesterdays game"), Eve Byron, Lizzy Shaw, Waterfield Designs (who also admits "Before you asked, I had no idea what that was"), Kelsey Humphreys, David M. Parada, Miriam van Ommeren and Ron Casalotti (who quips "She proved the old Brylcream ad slogan: A little Dab'll do ya, stil gets attention"). Shout out to Margo Howard, who guessed "Walk. And maybe skip."
As for today's question, here it is: A Florida man faces charges of assault with a deadly weapon after he threw what into a Wendy's?
Click here to submit your answers to @MuckRack. IMPORTANT: If you choose not to click that link, please include the word "answer" in your tweet so we can find it (the link will automatically do so for you)!
