Things We Like: "Deadbeat at Dawn" and Japander
Scarecrow Video's Pick of the Week: "Deadbeat at Dawn" (1988), directed by Jim Van Bebber
This action-packed scuzzball revenge thriller, produced on a minuscule budget, is a brutal throwback to 1970s drive-in filmmaking at its most demented. Jim Van Bebber not only wrote, directed and produced this movie, but he also stars as Goose, a disenfranchised gang member who wants to quit the thug life and spend more time with his woman. Unfortunately his girlfriend is murdered with a couple of golf clubs and, after romantically dumping her body in a trash compactor, Goose is hell-bent for unmerciful vengeance.
There's enough blood and gore in "Deadbeat" to rival "The Streetfighter" (throats ripped out, heads cut off, etc.) and the frequent stunt work is absolutely nerve-wracking, especially since Van Bebber performs them himself with ballsy abandon. He jumps on moving trains, scales buildings, and beats the crap out of lots of people. This impressive feature-length debut, shot on 16mm, ends with a lengthy showdown between the scruffy badass (who takes a lot of abuse) and his former gang, culminating in a tough, unflinching finale. – Spenser Hoyt
This website is as old as the world itself; I think I first wrote about Japander a little more than a decade ago. Remembering the site, I wondered if Hollywood's biggest stars were still winging their way over to Japan to pull a "Lost in Translation." I checked the page and yes, yes they are. Kiefer Sutherland is pimping an energy drink; Anne Hathaway is shilling for hair products; Brad Pitt is selling his body for bluejeans and online banking. These star-studded commercials aren't as shocking as they once were, as Hollywood's working elite seems to have less qualms about cashing in than it once did. (Yes, that's the voice of Oscar winner Kevin Spacey you're hearing in those travel website ads, mooning over a pouty masseur in a tank top: "Magnus is bliss." Kevin, I am becoming wrath.) But the Japanese put these Western stars in such whimsical and flat-out bizarre situations that the ads still have the capacity to get a smile, even if they no longer raise an eyebrow. When you're tired of Arnold Schwarzenegger's cute and terrifying Japanese ads, you're tired of Tokyo … and maybe Hollywood, too. – Geoff Carter

A fully abstract game semantics for an idealized programming language with local state and higher rank polymorphism - System F extended with general references - is described. It quite concrete, and extends existing games models by a simple development of the existing question/answer labelling to represent "copycat links" between positive and negative occurrences of type variables, using a notion of scoping for question moves. It is effectively presentable, opening the possibility of extending existing model checking techniques to polymorphic types, for example. It is also a novel example of a model of System F with the genericity property. We prove definability of finite elements, and thus a full abstraction result, using a decomposition argument. This also establishes that terms may be approximated up to observational equivalence when instantiation is restricted to tuples of type variables.

It is probably a sacrifice at the weigh in. The last to weigh in finds themselves below the yellow line with someone who "needs" to be there more.
When Kaylee wanted to quit, and not one who was in danger, Alison told them that there would be an elimination anyway so I assume that rule still stands.
I can see Jay opting to walk away to save one of the girls, fearing she would be voted off no matter what he asked.
This was a very boring show despite the beautiful country.
What's with the Rulon hate...?
Put on your big girl panties and deal with it!!
I'd also like to see Austin and Irene make it to makeover week. I think the only major changes that will be noticeable that week are Austin, Irene, Kaylee, Olivia, and Hannah. I don't think there will be much of a "makeover" for Ruben or Jay.
"Where you are today is where your mind put you. Where you'll be tomorrow is where your mind puts you." Billy Banks
The women are all pretty with long hair. I am not sure we will see much more than a trim and blow dry and of course make-up. Kaylee will be the biggest change because make up will make the biggest difference on her. I cannot see any of these women agreeing to much length cut off. They all still want to be able to pull it back so I am guessing some layers to show off the blow dry and maybe an inch off the bottom. Rulon and Jay will will just wear a suit. Nothing to so there.
That was a great message! And I've had a terrible day, so thank you.I love random acts of kindness.Really, realy appreciated.Scott- RIP SDL<3
I agree shoepie and tbamom about the makeovers! I do think Kaylee needs to go shorter with her hair...it's too long. And I hope they get clothes that will give them the hour glass figure women should have.
I didn't think about his loss being b/c they are being provided food instead of fixing it themselves so no opportunity to snack....good point.
"Where you are today is where your mind put you. Where you'll be tomorrow is where your mind puts you." Billy Banks
Or how about clothes that are current, hip and cutting edge and do not look like you are applying for a job or going to a cocktail party disguised as a 60 year old from the 70's? They need a better stylist and a bigger budget for the makeover. It looks like they shop at Sears.
I liked it when Tim Gunn helped them shop.....fit the clothes to their age and lifestyle and body shape.
They need Clinton and Stacey if not Tim Gunn...

Territory Management
You can set up territories and territory hierarchies. For example, a company might organize its sales force into groups or territories. The territories might be based on geography, products, or industries. Each sales group is responsible for handling the accounts and sales opportunities in its territory. You can use the territories that you set up in Oracle CRM On Demand as the basis for assigning new account and opportunity records. For information on setting up territories, see Setting Up Territories.

Jaffa car bomb, June 19.(Photo by: BEN HARTMAN)
Man killed by car bomb in ongoing Jaffa gang warfare
By BEN HARTMAN
Man in his twenties, reportedly a "soldier" in known crime family, is killed in car bombing in the Ajami neighborhood.
Gang warfare in Jaffa claimed another life on Thursday afternoon, when a local man was killed in a car bombing in the middle of the Ajami neighborhood of the city.
The car bomb shook the tightly packed streets of the neighborhood, shattering windows on adjacent streets and sending the hood of another car flying two blocks into the yard of a family home.
The target, a local man in his 20s, was rushed to Wolfson Medical Center by friends before paramedics arrived, but died on the way.
Police said the car was driving down Hatzri Street when the bomb exploded, indicating that it was most likely a remote-detonated bomb.
Speaking at the scene of the blast, acting district commander Asst.-Ch. Benzi Sau called the bombing "a very severe incident that endangers citizens," adding that police assume there is a connection between the blast and the fatal shooting of a 32-year-old Jaffa man on Rabenu Yeruham Street on Saturday night. He also said police believe they know who is behind both of the killings.
The man killed in the blast Thursday is well known to police, and a number of residents of the neighborhood said he was known to be linked to the Hamad crime family, which for years has feuded with the Ayash family in Jaffa. The man shot dead on Saturday night is affiliated with the Ayash gang, and police are working on the assumption that today's killing is somehow related.
In February, Jaffa man Taher Lele was gunned down in broad daylight on the Tel Aviv beachfront in front of hundreds of bystanders in a murder that remains unsolved. Lele was reputedly an enforcer for the Ayash crime family. Two suspects from the Hamad family were arrested after the shooting, but released within days, as were the members of a suspected hit team that was stopped on their way to avenge the killing of Lele, according to police.
Thursday's car bombing joins a series of around 20 car bombs in Israeli cities over the past year, along with over two-dozen gangland murders.
The brazen manner in which criminal gangs waged their feuds in the middle of Israeli cities, surrounded by civilians, drew great public criticism toward police. This criticism largely faded until this week, when news broke that police failed to properly deal with the distress call made by one of the three kidnapped boys in the West Bank last Thursday night.

Needless to say, legends aren't made in 10-point Thunder victories over the Kings. Travis Outlaw two-handed facials on the league's tallest player are, though! As I mentioned in the title of this morning's Assorted Observations post, Friday night in the NBA featured 10 games decided by an average of 14.4 points. Surely, this left many a basketball fan feeling more than a little bummed out. Me, though? I rather enjoyed all of the garbage time. In a way, the NBA is like a selection of movies — I love a good thriller, sure… but sometimes I'm in the mood for a comedy. A quality beatdown is like a hilarious comedy. OKC @ SAC delivered. This is actually Outlaw's response to being stuffed by Thabeet on an earlier dunk attempt. That's the reason for the mini stare down, which Travis appears to quickly think better of when he presumably remembers what's going on on the scoreboard. See, that's funny to me!

Sullivan has posted this infographic on why our healthcare cost so much. I have rarely seen such a huge a stack of healthcare lies collected in one place.
- They claim that America's obesity rate is not driving our healthcare costs, only accounting for $25 billion in spending. If that's the case, someone needs to tell the CDC, which has estimated obesity to be responsible or at least 10% of our healthcare spending and projects it to eventually cause 20% of our spending. Obesity is a primary risk factor for heart disease, something we spend a lot of money on. Lipitor alone is a $7 billion expense.
- They claim malpractice isn't driving healthcare costs, only being responsible for 2% of spending. This ignores defensive medicine. Now I'm aware that Haav-vud has estimated defensive medicine to be a tiny expense. But their lawyer-friendly study is far far too conservative. The Kessler study estimates 10% and I would even say that's conservative. A huge amount of our healthcare spending is for end of life care and a huge driver of that is the fear of lawsuits. Many procedures and tests that are considered "routine" would not be without lawsuit threats. Additionally, the effect of malpractice is not linear. For hospitals, it's a small part of the budget. For practicing physicians — especially OB/Gyn's — it can cost more than the rent on their office.
- They then say that providers charge more because they can — true enough — because the US government is not involved in price regulation. So Americans have "less power" over healthcare costs. I'm not going to re-open the price control debate again. It's too complicated for a group this stupid. But I will note that there are other ways for consumers — not "the people" to have power over healthcare costs.
- They complain that admin costs are 21% of our healthcare bill — twice what other countries spend and that 85% of this is due to private insurance. This tells me that they are buying the lie — and it is a lie — that Medicare's costs are only a tiny fraction of the private sector. Keep in mind, this is the Medicare that is currently spending 20 cents on the dollar on fraud — a problem that they perversely try to blame on the private sector.
- They complain that 41% of healthcare costs are for outpatient procedures. But outpatient procedure usually save money. They specifically site the example that 60% of UK hernias are treated inpatient, but only 11% of US hernias are treated inpatient. What?! Treating a hernia — usually not really an optional procedure — is MUCH cheaper done as an outpatient. Outpatient procedures save money. And lots of it.
- Finally, they say are doctors are overpaid. I'll leave that talking point for the class.
Sullivan should embarrassed to have posted this on his site. It's quite clear that the people who put this together have an agenda and have resorted to distortions of fact that would make Michael Moore blush. This isn't adding to the debate. It's setting it back twenty years.

In what is standard practice for many of the big broadcast networks in the weeks before the new fall TV season, NBC will distribute a preview show that will be hosted by actor Sean Hayes and the cast of his new Peacock sitcom, 'Sean Saves The World.'
The half-hour '2013 NBC Primetime Preview Show' is set to air between August 24 and October 6 on various media venues owned by network parent NBCUniversal as well as NBC broadcast affiliates. The network estimates the show will run more than 500 times over broadcast outlets, NBCU cable networks and digital venues. The preview is also being made available to the websites of the network's owned-and-operated websites. American Airlines, with whom NBCU has a pact to run its content, is expected to air the show on board thousands of its flights around the world.

Excellent piece Aris. All I can say is Amen Brotha!!
Well done, Aris. Astute and lucid, as is your norm. I suggest that you offer to contribute, for example, to OFA's worthy endeavors. You could with profit inject your personal brand of vivid imagination and clarity into their communications. Moreover, today's political topics of critical importance are best addressed by a subtle and well-infomed mind like yours. You do your research well and integrate it cleverly into astonishingly original commentary.
We owe you a debt of gratitude for your efforts. They inform and entertain at one and the same time. The best of luck to you and may good fortune shine on you.
This is not meant for the people that live to game the system, but for the honest, decent, hard working folks that just got caught up in an unavoidable circumstance that could really use some kind of break to get on back on their feet and regain their shattered dignity.
Agreed, but without a gigantic supervision (spy?) apparatus in place, how's the government supposed to tell which is which just by reviewing at benefit applications? How to know which ones to approve and which ones to decline because the applicant is merely trying to game the system?
I don't think it would be terribly complicated. If someone has been steadily employed and fulfilling their debt obligations, then all of a sudden they fall off the radar and everything starts becoming delinquent, you would have a pretty good idea that something out of the ordinary happened. Bring proof of that from an employer or a doctor and that could qualify you for some kind of fast-track credit redemption program.
Maybe there could also be some sort of moratorium timeframe before your credit is decimated for an eternity due to a temporary hiccup that life tends to cause once in awhile. If you can straighten it out within a certain timeframe, you remain unaffected.
People that game the system are usually on that ride as a lifestyle and their history is far from steady in any form or fashion. Biting off more than you can chew and swallow is not an excuse, but if you proved diligent and trustworthy before calamity struck, there should be a way to avoid being labeled a derelict in the credit industry for years.
Remember, it's not just about getting more credit anymore, it's about people like employers or renters checking you out by your score, making it a much steeper hill to climb before you can crest the summit again and get back to a comfortable downhill stroll.
I think you would find many more people trying to actually get back on track if it doesn't seem like such an exercise in futility. It certainly wouldn't help everyone in every situation, but I think it would help a lot of the right people.
And thank you Donna & Dr. Vigilance 🙂 I can only hope someone in a position of power that can act is listening

Silver Bullion: The Most Affordable Way To Protect Your Wealth
By InvestingAnswers:
By Christian Hudspeth
From the market peak in May 2008 to the market low in March 2009, the S&P 500 lost a whopping 52.8% of its value. More than eight million jobs were lost. The unemployment rate nearly doubled from 5.4% in May 2008 to 10% by October 2009. But believe it or not, that wasn't a real financial collapse. Just ask any Argentinean. Back in 2001, after decades of a repeated inability to repay its national debts, rating agencies finally declared Argentina in "effective default." And then came the chaos. People rushed to their local banks to pull out what was left of their savings. On November 30, 2001, central bank cash reserves fell by $2 billion in just one day. The president was forced to freeze bank accounts for an entire year and imposed a strict $250 per week limitation on personal bank withdrawals. The next day, massComplete Story »

Spinosaurid Fossil Discovered In Australia
A fossil from a species of dinosaur previously believed to exist only in the northern hemisphere has been found in Australia, giving scientists new leads into the history of dinosaurs, reports the AFP news agency.
The 125-million-year-old neck vertebrae of a fossil discovered in Victoria is identical to that of a Baryonyx, a fish-eating dinosaur from the Spinosaurid family, a family of dinosaurs that were thought only to exist north the equator.The finding suggests that northern and southern hemisphere dinosaurs had much more in common than previously thought. The traditional theory was that these ancient animals could be placed into distinctive, geographically separated groups. Now, this new finding undermines that popular theory, said Dr. Paul Barrett from London's Natural History Museum.
Thomas Rich, a curator for Museum Victoria, said the vertebrae is that of a Spinosaurus and was found near southern Victoria's Cape Otway lighthouse. It belonged to a fairly small (6.6-foot) dinosaur.
A "spine lizard" with a long, narrow snout much like that of a crocodile, the Spinosaurus was known to live in Europe, South America and South Africa, said Rich, but this is the first time its remains had been found in Australia. "The fact that they existed in Australia changes our understanding of the evolution of this group of dinosaurs," he added.
Rich's paper on the discovery, published this week in Biology Letters, states the find also challenges the idea that Australia's fauna was unique in the Early Cretaceous Period. "The same groups of dinosaurs were widespread when the Earth was once a supercontinent," he said.
"When the Earth evolved into separate continents, the various families of dinosaurs had already reached those landmasses, which explains why the same ones have been found in places now far apart from one another," Rich explained.
Dr Barrett told BBC News: "After looking at this specimen and having been forced to re-assess the distribution of spinosaurids, we took a look at other dinosaur groups from Australia, including the Tyrannosaur our team announced last year."
"Taking all this evidence into account, we started to realize that a lot of dinosaur groups we'd thought of as either northern specialists or southern specialists actually had more cosmopolitan distributions," said Barrett.
While it is only a single juvenile vertebrae bone that was found, the team says it displays features that are unmistakably those of a spinosaurid.
It is very similar to the neck bones of the well-known British dinosaur Baryonyx walkeri. Baryonyx was found in southern England, which in Cretaceous times was a lot warmer and covered by lagoons. It had a classic crocodile-like skull with conical teeth suited for catching fish-like prey in the shallow waters.
The team assumes that the Australian version of this specimen pursued a very similar lifestyle. Its Baryonyx-like snout would have been ideal for pulling fish out of the waters that existed in the plains where it was found back in Cretaceous times.
"The evidence is very limited - we'd be the first to admit that, but we're very confident that this Australian specimen belongs to the spinosaurids," Barrett told BBC News. "And because all the other members of this group share the same skull features we're pretty sure this dinosaur behaved in much the same way."
Scientists, based on the one vertebrae found, decided there is not enough of the animal to make a detailed comparison with other spinosaurids.
"For this reason we decided not to name it, nor did we try to shoe-horn it into any existing genus. We hope that future discoveries will tell us much more about the anatomy and relationships of this animal," Barrett concluded.

For specific properties, NRHP and NHL evaluation should proceed by first completing a property designation matrix, which provides a basic overview of condition and research potential, and can serve as a guide to the preparation of detailed nomination statements. Procedures by which the matrix is to be used are provided elsewhere, in the national context. How specific research questions and themes outlined in the matrix apply to southeastern Paleoindian properties, however, were discussed previously in this regional context.
NHL Property Type and Integrity
Three levels of integrity are employed in the present NHL theme study, High, Moderate, and Low. Properties whose integrity is High are potential NHLs or have national-level NRHP significance. Sites with High integrity have clearly identified Paleoindian component(s) in secure context, and with precise calendric dating. That is, the geologic and sedimentary context of the assemblage(s) are well documented, with sources of intrusion or disturbance recognized and controlled, and the age of the deposits ascertained using one or more absolute dating procedures, such as radiocarbon or OSL dating. Sufficient age determinations must, however, have been obtained from samples in secure context to ensure confidence in the results. Individual dates, accordingly, or even large numbers of dates from controversial associations, will probably not be considered sufficient, unless supported by other kinds of evidence, such as unambiguous geological or biotic associations. Where materials for absolute dating are not available, the assemblage(s) must be of highly unusual significance. In the Southeast, properties with high integrity and national level significance include Cactus Hill, Sloan, Dust Cave, and various sites in the Allendale, South Carolina, Aucilla River, Florida, Christian County, Kentucky, and Nottoway River, Virginia localities.
Properties whose integrity is Moderate are potential NHLs or have national- or state-level NRHP significance. Sites with Moderate integrity have Paleoindian component(s) that are to some extent mixed with later materials, in moderately secure context, and with relative rather than absolute dating. That is, the geologic and sedimentary context may be somewhat uncertain, with some mixing or reworking of the deposits. Control for disturbance is less secure. The age of the deposits is also somewhat less secure, and may depend upon stratigraphic relationships, seriation, or cross-dating with materials securely dated elsewhere. That is, sites with Dalton points are assumed to date between ca. 10,500 and 9,900 rcbp/12,500 to 11,250 B.P., regardless of where they are found, because that is the age range currently accepted based on an evaluation of known dates and contexts (Goodyear 1982). As we have seen, however, the actual temporal occurrence for Dalton points appears to vary appreciably, and may extend well beyond these inferred starting and ending dates, making use of cross-dating less secure than absolute dating. Southeastern sites with moderate integrity are widespread, and include most assemblages found on conflated surfaces, where distinguishing Paleoindian remains from materials dating later is sometimes difficult or impossible. The Quad locality in northern Alabama, which yielded numerous Paleoindian points, but also tens of thousands of later diagnostics as well, is one such example.
Properties whose integrity is Low are not considered NHL candidates. If they were to be considered eligible for inclusion on the NRHP, it would probably be at the state or local level of significance. Sites with Low integrity have presumed Paleoindian components that are in highly disturbed context, and whose age may be uncertain or questionable. Lithic scatters lacking diagnostics, absolute dates, or sound stratigraphic contexts are examples of such sites, as are sites with diagnostics whose deposits are severely disturbed or are thoroughly mixed with materials of later periods. Sites yielding low numbers of Paleoindian points as well as later materials in surface context would tend to have Low integrity.
Isolated diagnostic projectile point finds, of which thousands are known from the Southeast, are a special Paleoindian property class of great importance for research purposes, but whose integrity is considered Low, and hence have minimal potential for inclusion on the NRHP, or designation as an NHL. Isolated finds are thus typically not considered eligible for inclusion on the NRHP, unless the artifact itself is of exceptional significance. There is one exception to this. Groups of culturally related but otherwise isolated Paleoindian remains found in connection with diagnostic land-forms or other paleogeological, geomorphological, or paleoenvironmental contexts may be nominated as contributing properties within a district. That is, isolated finds, taken collectively, may under certain conditions (i.e., high density, significant paleoenvironmental associations) be considered important enough to warrant inclusion on the NRHP or as part of an NHL.
Evaluation Standards: NRHP Criteria
To these attributes can be added consideration of Glassow's (1977) criteria by which site significance can be assessed, as discussed in the national context chapter (see also Butler 1987).
The presence of any of the following characteristics tends to automatically make a southeastern site yielding Paleoindian materials ineligible for inclusion on the NRHP:
Detailed reasons why sites meet NRHP or NHL eligibility status should accompany all such determinations, and should be expressed in terms of how they can yield information important to history or prehistory. Given how rare Paleoindian sites are in the region, full justification should also be provided when Paleoindian properties are determined to be ineligible for inclusion on the NRHP, or for designation as an NHL.

Long Island's Newsday recently said goodbye to Editor Anthony Marro who
had been with the paper for almost 35 years.
By Sofia Kosmetatos Sofia Kosmetatos is a former AJR editorial assistant.
Marro says he's "always enjoyed this job. I've taken a great deal of satisfaction in it." But he looks forward to doing "some sort of writing" in Old Bennington, Vermont, where he and his wife, Jacqueline, own a home. Marro, who hails from Vermont, got his start at the Rutland Herald newsroom at 16.
Marro joined Newsday in 1968 after a year of journalism school at Columbia University, which followed six months of basic training for the National Guard. Friend and colleague Jim Toedtman, now Newsday's associate editor, remembers Marro's tenacity as a young reporter. While covering the Ted Kennedy car crash in 1969, Marro jumped off the narrow bridge between Chappaquiddick and Edgartown to check the currents of the water Kennedy's car fell into. It didn't prove anything, and "it was not one of the great moments in investigative reporting," Marro jokes.
Except for stints at Newsweek and the New York Times during the Watergate era, Marro spent his career at Newsday.
Schneider sees three challenges ahead for the paper: converging the newspaper with other media, improving the Long Island edition, and increasing growth in New York City. "I think it's going to be a very dynamic time for us."

Hope everyone is having a good holiday weekend.
I've uploaded the remaining Lili Deacon comic pages.
A few of the titles are missing but otherwise, everything looks ship shape.
"Death is a primitive concept; I prefer to think of them as battling evil, in another dimension!"
I know I haven't been updating this site or posting as much as I used too, I wish I would say Lili Deacon will be continuing shortly but unfortunately, that's not in the cards.
The reasons for this are unfortunate, Paul is no longer with us. He will be sorely missed.
I hope Joey Ramone and Charles Schultz are having listening to his jokes.
In housekeeping news: The Cartoon Frolics domain name and the Lili comic will remain up, I'll finish uploading the beginning half of Lili's story in a week or so. I've taken down the project wonderful ads, I know these ads helped getting the word out to other web comics but it just doesn't feel right making money off it.
If anyone enjoyed the movie trailer posts, point your rss feeds towards RKB Writes. Movie Trailers, Book Reviews and such are posted semi weekly.
It has been a fun trip going from Rah-CoCo The Kilted Berserker to Totems to Lili Deacon and I enjoyed every single minute of it. I hope everyone else did too.
See you in the funny papers.
R.K. Bentley
So with the holiday off from work I decided to move the website to a new host.
This occomplished a great many things: Like posting this message.
Pardon the mess while I clean things up and upload pages…

There are at least two ways to understand what I meant by that: (a) The W3C has exactly one standard for representing math, and that's MathML. Like you, I choose to orient myself largely around the W3C (as opposed to ANSI or ISO or whatever). There's a particular reason for that in my personal case: the W3C gets stuff done in finite time. I was a consultant to the original SGML committee back when the earth was still cooling, and I argued fruitlessly for decades to get a standard, stripped-down but still SGMLesque language for hierarchical data representation and transfer. It was the W3C that ultimately caused XML to be successful, and it will be the W3C that will ultimately cause most current and future IT standards to be successful. (b) The computational biology community that uses CellML and SBML (two standards for representing physiological and metabolic networks) has adopted MathML as their standard for representing the mathematical bits (e.g. rate laws in reaction kinetics). > Any case ISO-12083 *IS* an previous international standard (MathML is > technically a w3c recommendation not a standard because w3c is not a > standards body) and I do not see you promiting its usage, why? What are > your reasons? Because I don't like ISO, and do not wish to place any bets on them. This is a business decision on my part, you see -- not an academic decision, much less an aesthetic one. >> It's not surprising that people in the SBML community would say the same >> thing. Great minds think alike, after all. > > Let us wait and see if the introduction of MathML into SBML was fortunate > or not :-) Do not forget that great minds can make mistakes too. We already know that it was fortunate. I can build a tool to plug numbers into content MathML expressions that will work with both SBML and CellML, and with anything else that uses MathML. I can build a tool to turn MathML-expressed systems of differential equations into a discrete event graph for simulation without needing to come up with my own ad hoc language for representing the equations. >>> And MathML is so succesfull in the SBML community that last years was >>> launched a thread in the SBML site called "Complementary Alternative to >>> MathML Needed".

Why are online applications more important than others? You can't say that MathML is unsuccessful across the board just because it's not found as much use in your favorite horizontal than in others. (Well, actually, *you* can say that, and often do. But most reasonable people would not.) >> Success of a product doesn't mean that I like it particularly well, that >> I don't think it could or should be improved, or that there are no >> conceivable alternatives that would better serve my purposes.

I worry about your writings because you do not take a careful and reasoned approach to making your points, because your writings are very difficult to understand completely and because you spend a lot of bandwidth fishing for debating points with clever nonsequitur or decontextualized flippancy. But I worry about global warming and peace in the Middle East, too, and there's not all that much that I can do about those problems, either. >>>> What do you mean by "content" and "meaning" such that content MathML >>>> is >>>> about the one but not about the other?

All I've done is disagree with you when you've claimed incorrectly that MathML is unsuccessful in every way (or equally incorrectly, in all ways but one). Never in my life have I ever suggested to anybody that they should use MathML instead of some alternative. My decisions to use MathML are my own, but you don't seem to want to leave me to them: you tell me I've made the wrong decision because you think I don't have the technical wherewithal to make the correct decision, which in your mind must always necessarily exclude MathML. Right? > You also find CSS rendering of no interest I find CSS rendering of no interest *to me*.

What do you think I initially claimed? > (even claimed that math on the web posts would be submitted outside this > list!) I claimed that it was rhetorically ineffective to post anti-MathML polemic on this MathML-aligned list. And so it is. I did make the suggestion that your posts might be better suited to the WebMath list, but it turned out that the owner of that list doesn't want us there either. > You also claim that you are using MathML because is the "standard".

I also said that that would precisely *NOT* entail that MathML would necessarily be any better for anybody else's purposes, and that that's the rub. The WG's task was to come up with something that would do reasonably well for a reasonable variety of applications, and it's obvious (from the objective measures you deny) that they've achieved that. > If I remember correctly Patrick encouraged you to post here some ideas > for MathML 3 discussion but your messages continue lacking technical > stuff in an alarming way. As I told Patrick, I will provide MathML-related feedback from the computational biology arena as I encounter or create it. For now, I'm in the process of pouring the content MathML specs into a Python expression cruncher so that I have it in place when I'm ready to provide CellML and SBML interfaces to my simulation engine. For all of that, we're talking late this year and into next year, not this week and next. Most of my work with the simulation platform at the moment is actually in cognitive science (computational linguistics), which is where I have the most enthusiastic collaborators. >> If you have examples that cannot be encoded correctly in content MathML >> by anybody because the language is inadequate, then I'm certainly not >> the person you need to talk to. > > I agree with you.

That traditional definition no longer applies, however. XML is a markup system. RDF and OWL can be expressed in XML. RDF and OWL files therefore constitute "markup". There's no prima facie need to care about presentation issues for RDF and OWL files. Nobody think's it's a mistake (much less a common mistake) to have developed RDF and OWL without giving much thought to presentation. Therefore, your blockquote is misguided, misstated or misquoted. >>> It is not how you think that one can design a content markup for people >>> who is not interested in rendering issues and next one design a >>> presentational layer for rendering. >> >> How do you know? Have you ever tried to design a content markup scheme >> for math without regard for of rendering issues? > > After many posts I can begin to see your point clearly now ;-) Perhaps. If you're starting to see that I think content MathML has more in common with RDF and OWL than with, say, HTML or Postscript, then you might be right. -- Mark Mark P.

New Logo unveiled
Not bad. I wanna see the jerseys though (which wont come out till next season). And I thought Jay Z wanted a color change. The colors look exactly the same, not that I'm complaining though I love our colors.
This logos gonna be on our current jerseys as a tribute to Jersey I'm guessing.
Re: New Logo unveiled
this yahoo article gives more background.
i think the tribute logo looks pretty dope. only problem is the red background behind "new jersey" makes it hard to see the tricolor basketball in the foreground. but whatever.
to follow up on this, what they should do for the start of next season is to give selected discounts to fans from jersey. for example, pre-select certain games for discount tickets. say, if you're from jersey and can provide ID or similar then your ticket is half off. stuff like that.

Having problems with your AOpen PC Desktops ?
Am looking for a manual / schematic for an aopen atx z400 08f 350 watt power supply. I need to be sure of my connections (I'm not sure of at least two outputs) to my non-Aopen motherboard. I just bought the new tower and there are some adaptions I need to make. Obviously, I can't make any mistakes and the info provided really doesn't answer my questions. Thank you, [email protected]
Answers :
ATX Motherboards and power supplys are standard the connections are the same however there are now 2 types an 20 pin and a 24 pin varient - the extra 4 pins supply extra power to the power hungrey motherboards needed for morder dual core processors and graphics cards - you can use a 20 pin connector on a 24 pin board but don't overload it with graphics and pwerful proccessor or it will fail, alternatively go toyou local PC hardware store or internet supplier and purchase a new PSU to the same spec as the board - your manual will tell you the minimum spec you should need. - it all depends on the combination of processor memory, grachics other bus cards (audio NIC etc) and how many peripherals (HDD's and CD/DVD/Blue ray you have in the unit if you worried look at the specs for each unit you have in your PC - add the wattage together and then ad at least 25% for overhead if your current PSU is with spec then just carry on - it is not advisable to go around and try and rewire a PSU not for the £20 it costs to replace it

Well, I was not expecting this. Below is home video of Danny Bonaduce — post-"Partridge Family," pre-reality TV, and likely during his long love affair with mullets and hard-core drugs — going bananas with a pair of nunchucks during a martial arts demonstration. I mean, he's not a complete badass — he is, after all, a diminutive redhead — but he doesn't hit himself in the groin (unfortunately), so it's safe to say that he could beat up hippies and even large children.
The best part — aside from the crowd shots of people looking bored — is when the announcer says, "And now we're going to have a special guest appearance from Danny Bonaduce." The reaction is several seconds of disbelieving silence, followed by cautious applause. Everyone just assumes they're being pranked. "Who? Danny Partridge? I thought he was dead?"

Behind the scenes of the world's leading industrial and manufacturing companies, a profound digital transformation is now underway.
Industrial leaders are digitizing essential functions within their internal vertical operations processes, as well as with their horizontal partners along the value chain. In addition, they are enhancing their product portfolio with digital functionalities and introducing innovative, data-based services.
The 2,000+ companies that PWC surveyed are expecting to dramatically increase their overall level of digitization. While just 33% rate their company as advanced today, that number jumps to over 70% looking ahead to 2020. The biggest challenge of industrial leaders isn't technology - it is the people. While digital technologies are rapidly becoming a commodity, success largely depends on an organization's Digital IQ, especially how well its digital leaders like the CEO, CTO, or CIO define, lead, and communicate the transformation.
It's also dependent upon the digital qualifications of the employees who need to roll out digital processes and services. Radical disruption isn't always comfortable for the people who make it happen, so change management will also be critical. And with data analytics becoming a core capability for every industrial company, enhancing skills and organizational structures will be critical.
Digital IQ emphasizes that while investing in the right technologies is important, ultimately success or failure will depend not on specific sensors, algorithms or analytics programs, but on a broader range of peoplefocused factors. Industrial companies need to develop a robust digital culture and to make sure change is driven by clear leadership from the C-suite. They'll also need to attract, retain, and train digital natives and other employees who are comfortable working in a dynamic ecosystem environment.
The PWC survey gives you a deep global insight of the key elements of Industry 4.0 and the process of transition.

Al Jazeera English - Feb 20, 2012
By Sarmila Bose
A survey has revealed that the people of Libya may not be keen on democracy after all. The "Arab Spring" has been celebrated in the Western world as a struggle of democracy against dictatorship. Often the implicit assumption was that what the revolutionaries who were trying to overthrow their authoritarian regimes wanted was a Western-style parliamentary democracy. So when only 15 per cent of those surveyed in Libya say they want democracy established in a year, compared with 40 per cent who profess a preference for a "strong leader", it's a bit of a let-down for Western cheerleaders of the upheavals in the Arab world. Moreover, apparently only about a third of those polled wanted democracy even in five years' time.
