A threat was made to the New Rochelle High School on social media Wednesday night, though it was unfounded, school officials said on Thursday.
During a conference on Thursday, school and city officials confirmed that a threat was made to the school over social media following the fatal stabbing of Valaree Schwab, a junior at the high school who was fatally stabbed twice with a steak knife outside of Dunkin' Donuts during a dispute near the high school.
Police announced on Thursday that they've identified female Yonkers resident, Z'inah Brown, 16, as the alleged stabber.
- School officials said that several high school students stayed at home on Thursday amid the threats. Police increased patrols in and around the school on Thursday morning in advance of classes.
"What occurred yesterday is a profound and heartbreaking human tragedy," New Rochelle Mayor Noam Bramson said. "All people of good will are surely joined today in grieving the loss of a young life, in praying for the family, friends, and classmates of Ms. Schwab, and in expressing our firm and unshakable belief and intent that no young person should ever be the victim or the perpetrator of violence."
Bramson added that it is now "our collective responsibility to consider the chain of events that led to this horrific outcome, and to reflect on how we can each in our own roles better serve our children." He noted that his children, who are due to enter the high school in the next two years, will be sent to school "with eagerness and joy, (and he and his wife are) absolutely certain that they, like all children in New Rochelle, will be valued, nurtured, and protected."
"Every day, thousands of young people arrive at New Rochelle High School to learn and grow. They greet each other with love, and respect, and friendship – and with pride in the strong school community they have built together, alongside their teachers. That is just as true today as it was yesterday. And it will remain true tomorrow, and the day after that, and the day after that."

I got an e-mail from a guy building his own MAX, asking about how I hooked up the throttle — which turned out not to be quite as trivial as I thought it would be back in Twenty Ought Seven, when this project began.
The problem is, diesels don't usually have throttles, and this Kubota is no exception. Oh sure, we call it a throttle, but it's not. We tend to call anything that controls power a "throttle" — my gosh, airline pilots call their jet engine power controls "throttles" and boy is that a misnomer on a jet. Throttles are usually found on spark ignition engines, such as the gasoline engines that motivate our automobiles, but throttles are not a terribly efficient way to regulate engine power output, and one of the reasons that diesel engines are more efficient than gas engines is diesels don't have throttles.
Maybe Webster's can give us a clue here. Ah yes...
Throttle \Throt"tle\, v. i.
--1. To have the throat obstructed so as to be in danger of suffocation; to choke; to suffocate.
--2. To breathe hard, as when nearly suffocated.
We've forgotten what the word means, over the last hundred years. We talk about giving a car more throttle to make it go faster, when we mash our foot to the floor we call that "full throttle," but the truth is, throttling is a way to slow the engine down. If you had a spirited draft horse that pulled so hard that you had trouble jogging along behind the plow, you could make that horse ease up by partially strangling it. Well, that's how your car engine works. When you let off the gas pedal completely, the engine is so throttled that all it can do is idle, until you un-throttle it by stepping on the gas.
Typically, the throttle is a disk inside the air intake with a round shaft bisecting the disk (it's called a "butterfly" because it looks like one, presuming you have a rich imagination — the shaft is the body and the two halves of the disk are the wings). The shaft sticks through the wall of the air intake tube, so the butterfly can be turned from the outside — turn it one way and the disk blocks the airflow, turn it 90 degrees and the disk is edge-on to the air and doesn't block airflow much at all. In between the two extremes, you have varying levels of strangulation, and no, it isn't very efficient, and at low throttle settings, the engine spends more energy gasping for air than it gives out through the crankshaft. That's the main reason we get worse mileage in city driving than we do on the highway...but back to the subject, how do we hook an engine throttle to a gas pedal?
The standard practice for cars nowadays uses an inner cable in an outer sleeve. Pull the cable out an inch from one end of the sleeve, the cable goes in an inch at the other end of the sleeve, no matter how circuitous the path of the sleeve. One end of the cable connects to the throttle pedal and the other end wraps partway around a "cable cam", which is a half round metal stamping with a groove on the edge to guide the cable.. If you don't know what I'm talking about, look under the hood of your daily driver; I'm pretty sure you'll find a cable cam in there. You push the throttle pedal, it pulls the inner cable, the other end of the cable is attached to the outside edge of cable cam, and the center of the cable cam is attached to the butterfly shaft. The pedal assembly and the cam are designed so when the driver pushes the pedal flat against the floorboard, the butterfly turns ninety degrees, and air can flow into the engine unobstructed.
Like most diesel engines, the Kubota D1105T that powers MAX doesn't have a throttle. Instead, it controls power by limiting the stroke of the fuel pumps (there's a tiny little fuel pump for each cylinder); less fuel = less power.
Since this "throttle" controls a small amount of fuel instead of a large amount of air, it doesn't have to move very much.
In fact at full travel, that fuel pump controller only turns about 30 degrees. Compare this with the 90 degrees of a butterfly throttle and you see the problem: if we use the throttle pedal, cable, and cable cam that came out of the donor car (an ancient Toyota Corolla, in MAX's case) the pedal will only move 1/3 as far and be three times more sensitive than it ought to be.
My solution was to cut a quarter circle's worth of cable-attachment-and-guide off the Toyota's cable cam, weld it to a strip of steel, and bolt the assembly to the "throttle" lever on the engine. Of course I had to figure out how long to make that strip and where to put the bolt holes, but fortunately, I remember everything I learned in 7th Grade Geometry (wow, am I dating myself, or what?) and it was child's play (hey, I was 11 back then) to calculate that I needed four inches from pivot point to cable to get the Toyota's throttle pedal in synch with the Kubota's fuel pump lever.
I could have found the same answer through trial and error, but it would have taken me a lot longer...unless you count the time I spent in geometry class.

Having satisfied these desires by publishing illustrated books aimed at promoting both the conservation of the heritage of Forez and the work of his artist friends – the most prominent of whom included Auguste Ravier, Paul Borel and Jean-Paul Laurens – these passions went on to produce a talented amateur photographer.
Remaining resolutely on the fringes of the photographic circles of his time, Thiollier turned out to have created an original body of work which varied between picturesque, post-Romantic rural landscapes and a starkly lyrical view of an industrial world largely ignored by the artistic French photographers of the 19th and 20th centuries.

Sean Hodgson was recently freed after 27 years in prison for a murder he did not committ. This was not a case of the police knowing they had the right man and a technicality getting the individual of, but rather a case of a innocent man being freed, thanks (in part) to DNA testing.
DNA, which is often used to prove a conviction, showed that the Sean Hodgson was innocent, and the judge stated that it was not possible for Sean to have committed the crime.
The reasons Sean went to prison are no longer relevant as the UK police force's and laws have change beyond all recognition since the original case in 1982 (the major change being the introduction of the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984, enacted in 1986).
What is relevant to the UK, and this site, is the reasons Sean was not freed adecade ago.
11 years ago the FSS, Forensics Scientific Service, conducted a review of the case and told the defense team that the that case exhibits had not been retained, when in fact they had. It is these same case exhibits that resulted in the freeing of Mr Hodgson in 2009.
Since the revelation of this failure by the FSS, which resulted in the an additional 11 years behind bars for Mr Hodgson, it has emergeged that there is an intent to sue the Forensic Scientific Service by the lawyers for Mr Hodgson.
It is the error over a decade ago, which poses the major concern now. Exhibits were booked in, lost, believed to be destroyed and then found again.
Due to the sheer volume of exhibits and data that the FSS handle, this is not in the least bit surprising; errors happen.
There is no suggestion that the error was malicious, or part of a cover up, mearly an error. But this is the problem with DNA sampling, its belived to be infalliable, but people make mistakes, in labelling, sampling, and even following procedures.
This will always happen, its happened before, and will happen again, in fact DNA errors are more common than people may think. In addition to this there can be errors in the DNA databases itself, and errors can be made during the collection.
Therefore at every point in the DNA testing chain of evidence, from collection, sampling/comparison, and storing there can be, and will be, errors.
In this case an error with the DNA system failed to free a man, though equally an error could put an innocent behind bars. Though it should be remembered that the same system that failed to free Sean Hodgson, was later used to prove his innocence.
Due to the statistical errors involved in DNA comparison (collection, testing, storing) the more DNA tests that are carried out the more errors there will be, and this can not be avoided.
With the UK databases having grown so much in the past decade, there are questions as to how many other errors have occured. With the recent S and Marper v United Kingdom ruling, it means that less DNA should be taken, though this does not seem to have happened, but if it does, the potentail for accidental errors will decrease.
Though the potentail for deliberate errors will remain the same.

CTFO 10xPURE - WORLDWIDE EXCLUSIVE DISTRIBUTION
Discover The Role of "10xPURE" Patented Technology
Combined with CTFO Full Spectrum Hemp-Derived CBD Oil Drops
"It's not the cost of a bottle of CBD that matters, more importantly, it's the amount of CBDA and CBD that enters your blood stream for delivery to the targeted area, that makes all the difference!
CBD is created when the naturally occurring CBDA (cannabidiolic acid) is processed especially when heated during extraction. CBDA has been found to have more anti-inflammatory properties than CBD as it is a potent inhibitor of COX2 which is the same mode of action as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory.
In early testing, "10xPURE" Supercharged CBD Oil has been shown to maintain and protect the integrity of CBDA, which has been shown to be more effective than CBD.
No matter how good the quality of a product, without penetration and absorption of the key ingredients, you can end up with a wasteful application and reduced potency.
"10xPURE" Supercharged CBD Oil is the most exciting new relief agent for those suffering from pain and inflammation, or if you just want to naturally detoxify.
"10xPURE" is only available through CTFO!

CBD for your pet??
Humans and other mammals have an endocannabinoid system. There are specific cannabinoid receptor sites located primarily in the brain, central nervous system and peripheral organs, especially in the immune cells.
The endocannabinoid system has been found to be present in all vertebrates. CBD interacts in a similar way in our pets as is done in humans. CBD has less than 0.03% THC and no psychoactive properties.
CBD can help your older pets stay more active and youthful. It can also help relieve any anxiety due to separation, loud noises or stressful conditions

First, on Feb. 7, the 9th Circuit Court ruled that California Proposition Eight, the 2008 voter-approved ban on gay marriage, violates the U.S. Constitution. The court said the ban's only purpose was "to lessen the status and human dignity of gay men and lesbians in California." Then, a week later, Washington became the seventh state to legalize gay marriage.
While this was good news for equal marital rights, statistics from the West reveal tragic trends among gay youth, generally defined as in their teens and early 20s. Homeless services in Los Angeles, Seattle and Portland, Ore., recently estimated that 20 to 30 percent of their homeless youth are gay or bisexual. In Utah, Salt Lake City's Homeless Youth Resource Center estimated that over 40 percent are lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender. Arizona and Colorado report similar numbers. Some caution the numbers may be low, due to youth reticence about "coming out."
These numbers match national trends. Research by the National Gay and Lesbian Taskforce estimates that 30 to 40 percent of America's homeless young people are gay, alarming when we consider that only 3 to 5 percent of the general population is.
For many gay youths, homelessness is just one more landmark on a tragic journey. Hidden in urban shadows, including in the generally friendly cities of the West, these kids are subject to all varieties of violence, from robbery to rape to murder. Even in shelters, they experience higher abuse rates than their contemporaries. According to the National Runaway Switchboard, gay homeless youths, often perceived as easy targets, are far more likely to be victimized than their heterosexual counterparts. That was one of the factors in the brutal 1998 murder of Matthew Shepard in Laramie, Wyo., according to testimony from the killers' girlfriends.
Homelessness aside, homosexual youths often struggle with depression, which can lead to substance abuse, unsafe sexual activity and, eventually, even suicide. In 2008, the Suicide Prevention Resource Center found that lesbian, gay and bisexual young people were up to seven times more likely to have attempted suicide than the rest of the population.
Family conflict is the root cause of most of the problems. Studies in Arizona, Colorado and elsewhere found half of gay youths experienced a negative reaction from their parents when they disclosed their sexual orientation, including verbal, physical and sexual abuse. The religious beliefs of parents are often involved and contribute to rejection of these young people from their homes. At the Urban Peak Youth Shelter in Denver, one gay teen reported that his mother showed him the grave where she had figuratively "buried" him, unable to reconcile her religion with his sexuality. For years, he bounced between Colorado foster homes, shelters and the streets, falling into drugs, unsafe sex and other risky behaviors.
Religious discrimination is more than a family matter. Gay and Lesbian Taskforce research shows it pervades shelters, too, especially faith-based ones, where otherwise compassionate staff may ignore gay youths on religious grounds. When it comes to religious discrimination against homosexuality, Utah again springs to mind. According to the documentary film, "8: The Mormon Proposition," in 2008, Utah's Mormon Church spent at least $22 million to support California Proposition 8. It substantially contributed to what became the most money ever spent on a state ballot initiative, anywhere in the country.
Much of the money came from personal donations from church members in Western states. Setting aside that this hefty resource could have provided real relief for the West's under-funded homeless shelters, the campaign's widely aired and often fiercely anti-homosexual rhetoric was likely especially tough on this region's already vulnerable gay and lesbian kids.
While it's easy to fault the intolerance of some religious groups, I was intrigued by something less expected that recent research has revealed. It turns out that the national gay rights movement, which has raised awareness about the issue in general, winning many legal battles in recent years, garners only mixed results when it comes to homosexual youth.
On one hand, acceptance of homosexuality has increased, buoyed by characters on television shows, prominent entertainment figures, and school anti-bullying campaigns. This helps give many kids the courage to open up about their sexuality. But negative parental reaction is apparently still widespread and especially common in rural areas, like those that make up much of the West. As figures show, kids rejected at home often find their way to city streets and a lifetime of problems. In this sense, the adult debate on gay marriage inflicts collateral damage on non-traditional youth, who find themselves lost amid all the media hoopla. Scant resources exist to help these kids, and there never seems to be enough to go around.
As Westerners, we own our share of this national problem. It's written across young faces in Denver, Seattle, Los Angeles, Missoula. We should be proud of our region's recent contributions to equal marital rights, but more work against intolerance is needed in our communities and families.

2013 5K postal attempt...
by, August 31st, 2013 at 02:18 PM (1430 Views)
Do they have a 3.1-mile postal swim?
We had to stop early because of thunderstorms... darn, with only 1900 to go!
After a sluggish start I was feeling really good too. I made the drive over to DeKalb, IL, the Hopkins Park Pool, set up for LCM. There were 5 of us swimming the 5k postal and it was a super nice group: Dirk, who organized it, and some of his teammates, Keith and another Alex, along with Debbie from Rockford, IL. What was nice about this group... aside from the congenial conversation while huddled together under a tarp in a torrential rainfall (in Texas we would have called it a "real gully-washer"), we were all pretty evenly paced, I don't think anyone was more than a half length behind anyone else when we were pulled out of the water. Last year I did the 5K solo, so it felt good to have company.
I didn't warm up beforehand and determined to use the first 500-1000 as a slow building warm-up, but by the time I got to 1500 I felt like I was really cruising. I loosened up, stretched out my stroke and found a nice rhythm. When we were stopped I was at 3100 meters. My 3000-meter split was 55:12, which I just did some number cranking on and find that this is an average 18:24 per K pace... way faster than my 19:30+/k average last summer. Last summer my 100 pace was 1:57-1:58, this year 1:50.5. And again, I might have actually been swimming a little bit faster pace as I loosened up in the second and third kilometers (I'll find out when they e-mail me the splits). I'm pretty sure I was on pace for something like a 1 hour, 30-31 minute 5K, which would have crushed last year's 1:37:40. Here was my wrap-up after that 2012 5K:
I've made a lot of progress in the 13 months between these two 5K postal attempts... just sorry we didn't get to finish it out this year. We had a good time nonetheless, and I really thought I wouldn't even have a chance at another attempt this season with lack of LCM pools available in the immediate area, so this was just a bonus swim for me! And I'm feeling so much more confident this year than last... a long way to go yet, but happy with the progress.

Global Weather Assimilation and Modeling
Theme Presentations
- Intro to Earth System Modeling, FIM
- Icosahedral Grid in FIM, NIM
- FIM Real-Data Tests
- Global Observations for Assimilation, NCEP Gridpoint Statistical Interpolation
- Global Assimilation with Ensemble Kalman Filter
- Panel Discussion
Goal and Scope
The goal of global weather assimilation and modeling is to improve medium range weather forecasts, and increasingly, even short-range prediction. Global weather modeling is the key to NOAA's mission of predicting weather from 1 to 14 days in the future. Much of the associated public service, such as hurricane, winter storm and other economically important forecasts are dependent on the global weather models. This topic includes:
- Global scale assimilation - Use of in situ and satellite data, along with techniques such as variational analysis and Kalman filtering to determine the initial state of the global atmosphere.
- Development, implementation and improvement of the Earth System Modeling Framework.
- Dynamic Core - Development of new dynamic cores, particularly the hybrid coordinate core, for global models.
- Physics packages - Development of new physics packages for the global model.
- Ocean models - Ocean models are required for medium range weather prediction and for coupled atmospheric-ocean models.
- Studies - Use of global weather models to understand weather and climate. For example the use of the model ensemble for Dynamic Extended Range Forecasting.
- Global tactical forecasting - High-frequency data assimilation and modeling will extend to global coverage as satellite data assimilation techniques improve and global observations become available more quickly.
Rationale and Payoffs
Global weather models are crucial to improved medium range prediction. They are also a key part of determining the value of the global observing system because they are the measure, through Observing System Simulation Experiments (OSSEs) and Observing System Tests (OSTs), of the value of subsystems of the global observing system. Global model OSSE nature runs are also necessary prerequisites for performing regional-scale OSSEs.
There are several payoffs associated with global weather prediction. First, improved operational weather prediction is of great economic value to the nation. Transportation, industry and the public are able to use 1 to 14 day forecasts to economic advantage, particularly as these predictions become more reliable. Another payoff is in the improved understanding of the global system needed for climate modeling. A third important value of global modeling is the improved design of the global observing system based on systematic tests of observing system components. Observing system simulation experiments (OSSEs) are an important part of these design activities. Since a large fraction of NOAA's budget goes to the global observing system, this could be very important for optimum use of funds.
Major Collaborators and Their Research Foci
- Earth System Research Laboratory
- Global Systems Division: Existing expertise is in regional modeling, data assimilation, and OSSEs, but it has been developing concepts for global assimilation and modeling. Its expertise is in variational analysis, dynamic cores, and in physics packages, particularly moist physics.
- Physical Sciences Division: Extensive experience with the NCEP spectral model (Global Forecast System). They have been running these models on the ESRL supercomputer.
- Other NOAA
- NCEP EMC: Main repository of knowledge of global weather prediction in the U.S. They have extensive knowledge on global data assimilation, dynamic core, physics packages, and ocean models.
- Joint Center for Satellite Data Assimilation: Relatively new group, closely connected to NCEP, that is concentrating in techniques for development of radiative transfer models, and assimilation of all types of satellite data.
- Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Lab: The premier NOAA lab for global climate modeling, GFDL has decreased its interest in global weather modeling during recent years.
- NESDIS: Global satellite observations and data sets for model evaluation and diagnostic improvement.
- CIRA: Has extensive experience in global and regional modeling.
- NASA: Global observations and data sets for model evaluation and diagnostic improvement.
Contributions to NOAA Goals
- NOAA's Strategic Plan FY 2005-FY2010. Performance objective: Increase lead-time and accuracy for weather and water warnings and forecasts. Outcome: Reduced loss of life, injury and damage to the economy. (p. 9)
- Research in NOAA - A Five-Year Plan: Fiscal Years 2005 - 2009. "Community modeling approaches . . . (such as) the Weather Research and Forecast model . . .will accelerate the transfer of new models into operations." (Note: One of the efforts in global modeling will be to test the applicability of the WRF model to the global domain.) (p. 8)
- Science and Technology Infusion Plan 2004. Vision: Winter storms lead time increased from 9 hours to days. Hurricane warning lead-time from less than 24 hours to 3 days. Marine warnings increased to 3 days for gales and storms. (p. 8, 9)
Major Information Products, Customers, and Linkages
The direct customer for model assimilation and prediction development is NCEP EMC. There are a wide variety of customers for information from global models. For example, ESRL's Physical Sciences Division and other organizations have investigated the use of global weather models for Dynamic Extended Range Forecasting.

An outcast throughout her childhood in Munchkinland, she finally begins to feel as though she fits in when she enters the University in the Emerald City. While she hones her skills, she discovers that Oz isn't the Utopia it seems. She sets out to protect its unwanted creatures, becoming known as the Wicked Witch along the way.
Narrator John McDonough draws you in to Maguire's magical world of witches and talking animals, making it possible to believe in a land somewhere over the rainbow.
"A staggering feat of wordcraft." (Los Angeles Times)
"McDonough's excellent portrayals of Elphaba's outspoken, gravel-voiced nanny, Glinda's snobbish friends, and the wide-eyed, soft-spoken Dorothy make this excursion to Oz worthwhile." (Publishers Weekly)

It's not easy being green
From reading the reviews, this looks like a book that few are lukewarm about. Listeners either really loved it or really hated it! I'm of the group who loved it. And I feel compelled to say so after writing a negative review of the disappointing sequel Son of a Witch. I didn't truly appreciate John McDonough's excellent narration until listening to the author narrate the sequel. No comparison.
I'll admit that I didn't take to the story right away. It took about an hour. But a person driving a long distance is a captive audience and by the time Elphaba got to Shiz I was hooked. It's an odd story that takes place in an odd place and is certainly not for everyone. But it was for me.

I was not sure for a while then.......
Yes, I'm taken with this novel. Humor, intrigue, and overall a good story. It's not the type of book I'm typically drawn to, but this time I'm glad I was.

Great reading, okay book...
I'd heard so much about the book, I'd built up wonderful expectations for it. I did enjoy the listen, but I am quite disappointed in the novel overall.
First, I have to say the narrator was absolutely wonderful. The quality of voice and character was delightful, and I never tired of hearing him.
The story captivated me for about the first 2/3 and then started losing focus and the characters seemed to tumble out of control. By the end, I had absolutely no idea what the point had been. I had fallen in absolute love with Elphaba, and felt that her character was completely abandoned by the author in the last act. Some of the character turns were unpleasant, but necessary; others seem completely random and confusing.
Plot devices were introduced in the beginning, and then abandoned until the absolute end, when they addressed in a peculiarly obscure fashion, answering virtually none of the questions that were the basis of the story.
Since I have already purchased "Son of a Witch", I can only hope that the questions left unanswered are addressed there, and that its characters are treated with more care.

A long slide into inevitability...
A fresh concept - take a common childhood tale, and tell the story behind the story. Talk about the motivations and the story behind some of the non-core characters, and best of all, turn the concepts of good and evil upside down.
Wicked starts off well enough, with the birth of the Wicked Witch of the West to an ordinary enough family, with a bored, unfaithful heiress as a mother, and a stiff boore of a minister as a father. The story quickly deviates from the expected with its exploration of adult themes, ribald humour, and extensive political commentary.
Oz loses much of its magic, with the magic made mundane through its commonality and ultimate futility - in fact, magic doesn't play much of a role at all in the book.
<spoiler warning>
However, as the book starts to move towards the familiar plotline of the Wizard of Oz, there is a feeling of events rushing headlong to inevitability. The reckless, but lovable character of Elpheba (the witch) strangely disappears, to be replaced by an almost characterless stereotype. Many lovingly developed characters, such as Glinda and Fiuro, are essentially tossed into the trashbin.
Ultimately, the story leaves us wondering still about the motivations of some of the characters, so fails as an expose of these events. It definitely left me scratching my head at the unresolved plot points.
Also, there is a common theme of homosexual tension throughout the book, which felt artificially inserted unnecessarily. I certainly understood the context, but it just didn't seem to make sense.
A good read, but disappointing in the end.

A Wicked Delight!
I've been a Wizard of Oz fan for far too many years to count, and a couple of years ago had the opportunity to enjoy Wicked on the London stage. I was very excited to find the audiobook here on Audible, as it goes into so much more rich detail than could ever be delivered in the stage version. Don't get me wrong, both were awesome, but the audiobook just delivered so much more and kept me enthralled for hours at a time. I literally could not wait to listen to more!

Excellent writing, excellent vision.
This book was well written, first and foremost. The language itself is beautiful. The story it tells is complex and involved, and the fully fleshed characters are consistently believable in their world. Excellent book if you like fantasy of Tolkein quality, or if you liked The Wizard of Oz and want a more detailed view of the world.
My only complaint was that the ending seemed forced, and there was a point near the end where the narrative seems lost, as though the writer had had so much fun with his story that he suddenly realized he wasn't sure how to get back to The Wizard of Oz story. It starts seeming a little more contrived then, and I found the ending a bit weak in comparison to the rest. Minor flaw, really, in the context of such an impressive achievement.
A note of caution: I got this to listen to with my kids. Mistake. This is not kid friendly. Lots of sexual innuendos and some outright sex. Not bad for adults, but you might blush while wondering how much of that your child understood.

This book had a profound effect on me. I will never be able to think of The Wizard of Oz, especially the wicked witch, in the same way. My heart goes out to Elphaba.
Wicked is wonderfully written and the narration excellent. I found myself eager to get back to it whenever I had to stop. This reimagined story is so much more believable than any other I have come across. It is well worth the time. And I would listen to it again.

VERY adult
I got this book because I love the Broadway version. I was very surprised at the extent of the "foul" language... I was quite surprised, because he has such a great vocabulary. I would have expected more creativity in the "bad" words. Many explicit and suggestive scenes in the story, making for some interesting sub-texts. I did enjoy the thorough was the characters were developed, although some parts did seem excessively long. The narrator was very good and didn't get in the way of the story as some narrators do.

Interesting Spin...
A bit of history of the well known Oz.. but VERY little... subtly tied to Dorothy, the Tin Man, the Lion and Scarecrow and of course, the Emerald City and the Wizard. This book has a hint of the obscure land of Oz where different cultures co-exist, magic is an accepted talent, and the land is ruled by religious zealots, religious heresy, and fear. The awful green child grows to become a beautiful independent thinking, strong-willed young woman. The well-known beautiful Glenda, her ex-roommate during her college days at a University where 'animals' are both Professors and barnyard pets.
An interesting suggestion that the 'wicked witch' was not wicked at all and simply assumed the role that whispers thrust upon her during her quest to do the righteous thing confessing to her murdered lover's widow. A touch of sex, rebellion, mysticism and destiny. Not at all like the Broadway musical by the same name...a bit unnerving but a must finish ending.

Sometimes Hard Listening, but I Couldn't Stop
I found Wicked facinating. The author managed to make Oz a complex land. The narrator was terrific - can't imagine the book being read by anyone else. However, I didn't care for the sexual content. It was sometimes perverted, but never graphic. Saw no reason for some of the sexual references & scenes. ALso, I wish that characters had been better developed.
The book as a whole was disturbing. It was occassionally funny and often depressing. I wasn't expecting a "FUN!" read, but some of the brutal things that happened were over the top from my POV. Overall, this was a good & highly imaginative book, and I recommend it with reservations.

Major Section: INTRODUCTION-TO-THE-THEOREM-PROVER
We start by showing classical induction on the natural numbers in an ACL2 setting before turning to a more general treatment of induction.
Classical Induction on Natural Numbers: Induction is familiar in the
arithmetic setting. Let
(p n) denote some formula involving the variable
(and perhaps some other variables which we don't exhibit). Then to prove
(p n), for all
n, by classical induction on the construction of the
natural numbers, prove each of the following:
Base Case: (implies (zp n) (p n))
Induction Step: (implies (and (not (zp n)) (p (- n 1))) (p n))The Base Case establishes that
p holds for
0. In fact, because of
the definition of
zp , it establishes that
(p n) holds when
n is
0 and it holds when
n is not a natural number.
The Induction Step establishes that if
n is a natural number other than
and if
p holds for
n-1, then
p holds for
n. The hypothesis
(p (- n 1)) above is called the induction hypothesis.
Note that if the Base Case and Induction Step are valid, then we know
(p n),
for all
n. You can convince yourself of this by picking any object
and asking ``how do I know
p holds for this object?'' For example,
(p -7),
(p 'abc), and
(p 0) are all established by the Base
Case. What about
(p 1)? That follows from
(p 0), given the
Induction Step. Why? To prove
(p 1) using the Induction Step, you have
to establish
(not (zp 1)), which is true, and
(p (- 1 1)), which is
(p 0), which is true by the Base Case. So
(p 1) is true. Similar
reasoning proves
(p 2) from from
(p 1), etc. Clearly, for every
natural number other than
0 we could reason like this to show that
holds. Since the Base Case handled all the objects that are not natural
numbers, and handled
0, we know
(p n), for all
There is a duality between recursion and induction that ACL2 exploits. The fact
that the Base and Induction steps above are sufficient to prove
p for all
objects is related to the fact that the following recursion defines a total,
terminating function:
(defun nat-recursion (n) (if (zp n) n (nat-recursion (- n 1))))
When this function is admitted we have to prove that if
(zp n) does not
hold, then
(- n 1) is smaller, in some sense, than
n. This sense of ``smaller''
is determined by some measure of the arguments. That measure must return an
ordinal (ordinals ), but the most common measures return natural numbers,
which are among the ordinals. Furthermore, that measure should insure that the
terms in the recursive calls are smaller than the formals, i.e., the measure of
(- n 1) must be
smaller than the measure of
n, when the recursive branches are taken. This sense of
``smaller'' must be well-founded: it must be impossible to have an infinitely
descending chain of smaller things. This is true of the less-than relation on
the ordinals (see
o< ). Well-foundedness means that eventually any
recursion must ``bottom out'' because things can't keep getting smaller forever.
The recursion in
nat-recursion suggests the induction shown above:
the Base Case is defined by the
if branch that does not lead to a
recursive call. The Induction Step is defined by the other branch. The
induction hypothesis is defined by what we recur on, i.e.,
(- n 1). The
theorems proved when
nat-recursion is introduced justify the
classical induction scheme noted above.
Every recursively defined ACL2 function suggests a legal induction and vice versa.
Furthermore, every call of a recursively defined function on distinct variable symbols also suggests a legal induction: just take the induction suggested by the function's recursive definition after renaming the formal parameters to be the variables in the call.
For example, it should be clear that
(nat-recursion a) suggests a Base
Case defined by
(zp a), and induction step defined by
(not (zp a))
and an induction hypothesis about
(- a 1).
Note that the term
(fact n) suggests the same classical induction on
natural numbers shown above, where
fact is defined as follows (even though
we've used the formal parameter
k below).
(defun fact (k) (if (zp k) 1 (* k (fact (- k 1)))))The induction suggested by a term like
(fact n) is insensitive to the
name of the formal parameter used in the
The induction suggested by a function or term is insensitive to the value returned by the function or term.
It doesn't matter what the function returns in its ``base case'' (e.g.,
1 in
fact) or what the function ``does'' to its recursive
call (e.g., multiply by
k in the
defun of
All that matters is (i) how the
if structure breaks down the cases on
k, (ii) which branches lead to recursion, and (iii) what arguments are
passed to the recursive calls. Those things determine (i) the case analysis
of the induction scheme, (ii) which cases are Base Cases and which are
Induction Steps, and (iii) what the induction hypotheses are.
For a selection of common inductions schemes in ACL2 (e.g., on the structure of natural numbers, lists, and trees and on several variables at once, multiple base cases, multiple induction hypotheses, multiple induction steps, etc.) check this link.
Every legal ACL2 induction corresponds to an admissible recursive function and vice versa. Similarly, every legal ACL2 induction corresponds to a call of a recursively defined function on distinct variables.
ACL2 chooses which induction to do by looking at the terms that occur in the conjecture. For many elementary theorems, ACL2 chooses the right induction by itself.
You may occasionally need to tell it what induction to do. You do that by showing it a term that suggests the induction you want. We'll explain how you communicate this to ACL2 later. If you understand how recursive functions suggest inductions, then you know what you need to know to use ACL2.
The main point of this discussion of induction is familiarize you with the basic terms: Base Case (of which there may be several), Induction Step (of which there may be several), Induction Hypothesis (of which there may be several in each Induction Step), measure and well-founded relation justifying an induction, and the induction suggested by a term or recursive function definition. Furthermore, every Induction Hypothesis is always an instance of the conjecture being proved: each induction hypothesis is obtained from the conjecture being proved by applying a substitution replacing variables by terms.
