Stoicism (and possibly its earlier form - Cynicism) has always struck me as a sort of counterpart to Buddhism in the west. I have always thought that the truths that the Dhamma revealed was there for anyone to discover if they so chose, and I think the ancient Greeks uncovered quite a lot of it.
Stoicism was a Greek philosophy founded in the 3rd century BC by one Zeno of Citium, but it has its roots in more ascetic practices of the Cynics (such as Diogenes).
I think that the Stoics sought the same goal as Buddhism, which they called Apatheia (freedom from suffering, painful desires/emotions). They believed that pathos results out of human ignorance of the reason in nature. They put an emphasis of philosophy as a practice and personal training (askesis) instead of just intellectual exercise. The goal of that practice was the removal of pathos which comes in four forms; desire (for some future thing), delight (attachment to something you have), fear and distress from present conditions.
According to the philosopher Epictetus, no sense impressions are actually good or bad, because they are outside of our power to control them. The only thing which can be said to be in our power is our prohairesis, our choice in giving or withholding assent to impressions and passions. By training this faculty, the stoics point to a way to freedom."Freedom is secured not by the fulfilling of men's desires, but by the removal of desire." - Epictetus
Another concept which seems to me very close to Buddhism is the idea of being vigilant and mindful of your daily actions (prosochē). As Pierre Hadot says in "Philosophy as a way of life": "Attention (prosochē) is the fundamental Stoic spiritual attitude." By being vigilant in this way, stoics sought to control their prosoche and not assent to impressions which could give rise to pathos.Remember that what is insulting is not the person who abuses or hits you, but the judgment that these things are insulting. So when someone irritates you, realize that it is your own opinion that has irritated you. Try, therefore, in the first place, not to be carried away by the impression; for if you once gain time and respite, you will find it easier to control yourself. - Epictetus, the handbook
The techniques which the stoics used included writing in journals (hypomnemata - an example is the meditations of Marcus Aurelius), daily reminders about death and the impermanence of things (memento mori), and constant reflection on your actions and thoughts."Remember that man lives only in the present, in this fleeting instant; all the rest of his life is either past and gone, or not yet revealed." - Marcus Aurelius
I have read the stoics and they have always helped me in my practice. Also the use of a journal is indispensable as well. What do you guys think about Stoicism?Say to yourself in the early morning: I shall meet today ungrateful, violent, treacherous, envious, uncharitable men. All of these things have come upon them through ignorance of real good and ill... I can neither be harmed by any of them, for no man will involve me in wrong, nor can I be angry with my kinsman or hate him; for we have come into the world to work together... - Marcus Aurelius

Here is the latest on Hurricane Florence which splintered buildings, trapped hundreds of people and swamped entire communities along the Carolina coast Friday in what could be just the opening act in a watery, two-part, slow-motion disaster.
The storm's intensity diminished as it neared land, with winds dropping to around 90 mph (144 kph) by nightfall. But that, combined with the storm's slowing forward movement and heavy rains, had Gov. Roy Cooper warning of an impending disaster.

Man Charged With Marathon Hoax Due in Court
BOSTON (AP) — The mother of a man arrested near the Boston Marathon finish line carrying a backpack containing a rice cooker on the anniversary of the bombings says her son has a mental disorder.
Joie Edson tells The Associated Press her son Kevin "Kayvon" Edson has bipolar disorder.
The 25-year-old was arrested Tuesday. He is scheduled to be arraigned Wednesday in Boston Municipal Court.
He faces charges of threatening battery, possession of a hoax explosive device, threats to commit a crime, disturbing the peace, disturbing a public assembly and disorderly conduct.
He was stopped late Tuesday by an officer who saw him acting suspiciously, including walking barefoot down the middle of a street, veiled in black, in pouring rain.
Last year, two bombs made from pressure cookers killed three at the marathon.

I think there are two things that make it looks smaller, rather than bigger. 1.) There is nothing else in the scene for size relation. (I realize it's just concept and not a whole composition.) 2.) The size relation of the details to the actual ship suggest that it is small. If there were a ton of smaller details all over it the I would think it was massive but since most of the details are quite large, it seems to me that the ship is pretty small. I think number two is what really makes me feel like it's small. I hope that made some sense. Is this ship going to be in the animation with the fast, dog-like mech that you posted in the other forum? When you complete it, I'd love to see it (As I'm sure many others would too). But I really like the direction that the designs are going. The shapes are really nice on both this one and the dog-like mech thingy.

Posted: Thu Jan 04, 2001 2:41 pm Nice work , im not sure i agree with cheese boy, the design looks fine too me. There is only 2 points i'd make. 1] The text printed on the size looks really unconvincing, i'd remove it, or change the font and size. 2]I'd change the engines, those engines dont look like they could move a massive ship like that. As i said good work. Back to top Samson & FriendsmemberMember #Joined: 02 Jan 2001Posts: 106 Posted: Thu Jan 04, 2001 3:06 pm It's an interesting little ship and I would like to fly it some day, but I agree with cheese. It doesn't seem like a big ship, it looks like it would be no more large than a blimp. But I still think it is a great design, and the colour brown was an excellent choice.

I hope Back to top egeriememberMember #Joined: 30 Jul 2000Posts: 693Location: Montreal, Canada Posted: Fri Jan 05, 2001 9:18 pm I remember a thread about big ships on the forum a few months ago. Loki (I think), Spooge and a few others had interesting points about what kind of subtilities it takes to give the illusion of a great spaceship. It was mentionned -if I remember well- that it's not necessarly the amount of detail only that gives that result altho it generaly works Nor is it necessary to put teeny tiny detail all over the ship. Suggestion is better. Angle and POV of the ship greatly accentuate the impression of something large. Maybe slightly curved or tweaked perspective. And yes size relation references are the ultimate giveaway but in space unless you'd kick a astronaut outside you're pretty limited ! This thread is probably not very far in the forum's archive. I recommend diggng a little if you're much into spaceships as it's rich in ideas. -ege and her 2 bits. Back to top DanmemberMember #Joined: 24 Sep 2000Posts: 224Location: Kingston, Ontario, Canada Posted: Fri Jan 05, 2001 9:34 pm It looks awfully aerodinamic for a spaceship.

(shrug I think the one thing that makes a big ship convincing is to have tons of tiny lights for windows on it, like a building, if you will. I took a second look and then I noticed that you had some, but they are difficult to make out. I'd add more, and make them brighter. Also, that yellow circle in behind seems questionable. An engine? I just think it's a good idea to make ship parts a little easier to make out, but that's just me. The color is a very icky shade of yellow too (sorry but I abhor yello). It needs to glow. =) Back to top CollosimomemberMember #Joined: 30 Dec 2000Posts: 551Location: Brisbane, QLD, Australia Posted: Sun Jan 07, 2001 8:59 pm Nice design. Its a fresh look. Size. Well I had a thought. 'Usually Large spaceships are made up of thousands of pieces, like a boat is made of panels of steel. Spaceships like the ones in Star Wars and even the death star look big maybe because of all those panels and bits. NOT neccesarily detail. Just try playing around with that idea.' I'd agree with the POV (point of view) idea and the windows, mentioned already. Of course environment helps too. /COLLOSIMO Back to top TinuschmemberMember #Joined: 25 Dec 1999Posts: 2757Location: Rhode Island, USA Posted: Mon Jan 08, 2001 12:40 am It needs more nudity Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First Sijun Forums Forum Index -> Gallery/Finished Work All times are GMT - 8 Hours Page 1 of 1 Jump to: Select a forum Digital Art----------------Digital Art DiscussionWork in ProgressGallery/Finished Work Miscellaneous----------------Random MusingsArchive : Sep99 - Dec00 You cannot post new topics in this forumYou cannot reply to topics in this forumYou cannot edit your posts in this forumYou cannot delete your posts in this forumYou cannot vote in polls in this forum Powered by phpBB © 2005 phpBB Group

Why Are Super Bowl Ad Rates Rising So Fast?
The cost to air a 30-second ad during the Super Bowl has gone up by 75% over the past 10 years. What's behind the increase? WSJ's Jason Bellini has "The Short Answer."

... I ... you'll see its always you ... is the Super Bowl highlights I remember your way or ... the advertisers money clearly paid off ... now with this chore ... the cost to their single thirty second ad during the Super Bowl this year ... has jumped to three point eight million dollars when no wise Super Bowl ad rates are rising so fast ... here's the short answer ... is not because that many more people are watching ... this chart shows how suitable viewership has grown the past decade ... but add inflation is growing much faster ... experts tell me social media is part of the equation ... just reply to add that doesn't flush out the hashtag ... companies are willing to pay higher prices ... the chance that there are at or their products ... will start a conversation ...

DailyDirt: Crackpots Versus Real Scientists
from the urls-we-dig-up dept
- Vinay Deolalikar posted his "proof" that P!=NP a few years ago, but it didn't quite stand up to the scrutiny of some mathematicians -- and you, too, can dismiss an extraordinary proof by watching out for a few telltale signs. It's hard to refute everyone who claims to have a P!=NP proof, but there's a roadmap for how to avoid wasting other mathematicians' valuable time. [url]
- A. Garrett Lisi has a grand unifying theory of the universe, but maybe he should stick to surfing. Lisi's TEDtalk is amazingly devoid of physics, but the Large Hadron Collider may have the final say about whether "E8" provides any unique insights on the universe. [url]
- In 2012, Japanese mathematician Shinichi Mochizuki posted 500+ pages (on the internet!) that "might" prove the ABC Conjecture. Mochizuki refuses to discuss his proof, and so far, no one else has really been able to tell him he's wrong. [url]

How Can You Make a Better Tasting Hot Dog? [VIDEO]
The 4th of July celebrations start this weekend. Family and friends get-together and fire up the grill! Hotdogs are and American a must for a summer cook-out, and I just heard of a new easy way to grill them that is suppose to really improve their taste. Spiral it before putting on the grill. I am so going to have to try this!!!
According to the guys at Chow.com, cutting a spiral pattern into your dog before grilling improves its taste and it looks cool too!
Spiraling a hot dog looks easy as well. Start by sticking a skewer down the middle. Then take your knife at an angle and spiral cut the dog down to the skewer from end to end. Then just pull the skewer out and lay that puppy on the grill!
Here's a video to show you how it's done!

Bob Brown and his wife told their children they could live with them for a year after graduating from college — but they really wanted them moved out in six months and would charge them rent.
"They moved pretty fast," the St. Charles resident said of his children, now 33, 31 and 29.
But for six months out of the year, Brown and his wife open their home to his 97-year-old father-in-law, who is mobile and has all of his faculties. He spends the winters in Austin, Texas, with his other married daughter.
"He doesn't wear out his welcome," Brown said.
At 66, Brown is part of the baby boomer generation, those born between 1946 and 1964. As baby boomers cross the threshold into retirement age – 10,000 boomers a day turn 65 in the United States – many are paying more attention to family and the need to care for aging parents while helping adult children in a down economy.
"The baby boomer generation often fills in the family," said Lucia Jones, executive director for the Northeastern Illinois Area Agency on Aging, which helps coordinate federal funds and general resources to senior service agencies in metropolitan Chicago, including organizations in Kane, DuPage, Grundy, Kankakee, Kendall, Lake, McHenry and Will counties.
"They are often saddled with responsibilities to their parents, as well as their younger children," she added.
The agency coordinates with local groups such as ElderDay Center and Fox Valley Volunteer Hospice in Kane County. Kane County has seen an increase in demand for services by those in their early 60s, according to the 2011-2012 Kane County Community Health Assessment.
"The fastest-growing age group in Kane is the age group 55 to 69 years, which increased by more than 70 percent," according to the assessment. "In fact, the 60 to 64 year age group doubled in the last 10 years."
Many of these baby boomers have found themselves serving as caregivers for their parents, who are living longer than previous generations and increasingly are preferring to age at home, Jones said.
That's the situation for Campton Hills residents Sandy and Pat Ryan – he was born during the baby boom – who have welcomed Sandy's 83-year-old mother to share their home with them and their two teenage daughters, Sara and Emily.
Sandy Ryan said her mother probably takes care of her family more than they take care of her, but she noted she handles some of her mother's medical needs, like talking with doctors.
Having her at the house can be stressful at times on both sides, she said.
"She's more concerned about certain things the girls are doing than I would be," Sandy Ryan said. "I think she has a hard time realizing they're at the age that they are."
Parenting children, caring for parents
The Browns and Ryans are hardly alone in caring for a parent: Nearly 10 million adult children older than 50 provide care for their aging parents, a 2011 study from MetLife on the caregiving costs for working baby boomers found.
The total lifetime financial impact – in terms of lost wages, Social Security benefits and private pensions – for the average baby boomer to care for their parents is $303,880, the study found. That amount includes leaving the labor force early and/or reduced hours of work.
The caregiver role ranges from helping with the bills to helping with medical treatment. About one-third of caregivers, the study showed, work fewer hours or leave the workforce early to focus on caring for their elderly parents.
"The trend is that people want to live in their homes and not in an institutionalized program," said Betsy Creamer, supervisor for the Illinois Department on Aging's Office of Older American Services. "Baby boomers are providing more and more care to their families as caregivers."
Creamer's office helps administer the department's community care program, which provides in-home services for seniors. Illinois has seen a "fairly dramatic" increase in demand for the program, which now serves 46,750 more residents than in 2003, Creamer said.
But baby boomers also are turning to assisted living places for help. The Autumn Leaves Alzheimer's and Memory Care Assisted Living community in St. Charles receives many inquiries from adult children about services for their parents, Executive Director Brian Nebel said.
Autumn Leaves staff acknowledged that adult children often struggle with feelings of guilt because they promised their parents they wouldn't put them in a home. After doing so, however, many wish they had done so sooner, staff members said.
In addition to their parents, baby boomers often feel obligated to help their children, many struggling to find jobs in a slow economy that includes persistently high unemployment.
A 2012 survey from the National Endowment for Financial Education found that 59 percent of parents are providing financial support – such as living expenses and transportation costs – to adult children who no longer are in school.
The findings were released at the same time the MetLife Mature Market Institute surveyed 2,123 Americans ages 21 to 65 on the level of financial responsibility people of different generations feel in a variety of family roles.
In it, 77 percent of baby boomers interviewed said they wish they could do more for their children.
About 44 percent of baby boomers felt an absolute or strong responsibility to provide for their child's higher education, and a near identical amount – 45 percent – felt the same way toward allowing a child to live at home during times of financial difficulty.
Geneva resident Margaret Evans, 57, works four jobs – three part-time and one full-time – because, in addition to having many bills, she is supporting her 22-year-old son.
Her son recently finished the automotive program at Waubonsee Community College, and hopes to sign up for a program at Southern Illinois University in Carbondale, Evans said, noting that expense.
"He's got to find a job," she said.
Brown – the St. Charles baby boomer who encouraged his three children to live on their own after graduating from college – said they returned home for a short period before finding other living arrangements.
"It's good for everybody," he said.As America Ages: 11 photos

|Attention: DocWiki has reached EOL and will be decommissioned January 25, 2019.
VXML Server: Ending Session Request Error
From DocWiki
Ending Session Request Error
|Problem Summary
|This error message appears when an HTTP request initiated by the root document is made by the browser for a session that VXML Server has started the process of ending but that process is not complete. This is similar to the previous error, but where in that situation the request was made after the session had completed, this situation involves the request occurring while the VXML Server was ending the session but before it completed.
|Error Message
|SERVER ERROR: An HTTP request was made due to an event caught in the root document to a session that has been slated for invalidation.
|Possible Cause
|One very rare situation that could cause this error to occur under standard call volume involves a perfect timing of events. This error would not be produced if the extra request arrives while an end of call event was executing. However if it did take a long time to execute, prompting the browser to time out the request by having the root document make a new request, and that request came at exactly the time the end of call event completed but before VXML Server was able to finish the session ending process, this error would occur. Since this process normally occurs rapidly, the chances that this would occur during this period is very small.
This error would also be encountered if the network, operating system, or Call Server on which VXML Server is installed is sufficiently overloaded such that either HTTP requests are being queued up too much, HTTP requests are being dropped or the Call Server is so overloaded that the normally trivial process of ending a session takes a non-trivial amount of time.
Severity: The severity for this error is very low because there is no effect on the caller since this occurs after the call is complete. Additionally, the situations in which this can occur during normal operation are extremely rare.
|Recommended Action
|For the first situation, the developer must ensure that their end of call events do not have the possibility of taking longer to execute than the H.323 Service's fetch timeout VoiceXML property. Another possible solution if the end of call event is a Java class would be to execute the class in a separately spawned thread. As long as the end of call class completed its execution before the session invalidation delay specified in the conf/global_conf.xml of the installation directory, there would be no risk of the class referring to data within the session after it was invalidated.
For the second situation, it may be an indication of excessive network, operating system, or Call Server load. For the network, perform diagnostics to ensure proper operation. For the operating system, check the CPU and memory utilization to ensure they are not maxed out. And for the Call Server, check the configuration to ensure the HTTP request queue is not too small (for example, on Apache Tomcat, the acceptcount setting can be configured in the conf/server.xml configuration file). Finally, the administrator may decide to direct less load on the system.
The administrator may also choose to ignore these issues if they occur rarely since there are no bad consequences for the call session that encounters this error.

Mar ak Twain heads to Craig
Jim Post impersonates famous writer at community concert
November 9, 2000
Most people today remember the humorist for writing such classics as "Tom Sawyer" and "Huckleberry Finn," or from his sparkling, dead-on one-liners, such as "Everybody talks about the weather, but nobody does anything about it."
Community Concert Association season ticket holders will have an opportunity to step back in time Saturday night as the curtain rises at Moffat County High School on Jim Post from Galena doing his show, "Mark Twain and the Laughing River."
"Jim's impersonation of Twain matches the great writer's anecdotes, stories and ballads. He is almost a dead ringer for Mark Twain at the mid-point of his writing career," Concert Association publicity chairman, Chris Comstock, said.
The family-oriented show is as much a musical as it is a glimpse into the genius of the writer, the cynic, the observer of human nature. Post captures the core of Twain's greatness complete with white suit, white hair and cow-catcher mustache as he rambles across the stage, chatting and singing about what it was like to be a boy growing up along the mighty Mississippi in the 1840s. His memories flesh out the real people behind Tom Sawyer, Becky Thatcher, and other characters who populated his novels.
Post is backed up by three talented musicians, keyboards, violin, cello, and a banjo picker, as well as playing the guitar himself. Post's songs, many he wrote himself, are folksy, funny, and reflective.
The presentation, second in this season's concert series, is sold out. No tickets will be sold at the door. But for season ticket holders, the show promises to be blockbusters.
"For the young folks, it will have great appeal because of the stories and jokes and Post's lively antics on stage," Comstock said. "For the adult audience, the setting, customs and life-style of the mid-1800s will be meaningful."

While living in Alaska, Don Blackwell said he was mesmerized watching artists at an ice carving festival. Amazed by the details within the craft, he became interested in all types of sculpting and found his true love - wood carving.
While living in Alaska, Don Blackwell said he was mesmerized watching artists at an ice carving festival.
Amazed by the details within the craft, he became interested in all types of sculpting and found his true love - wood carving.
The Hendersonville native preformed a live wood carving show at Jongo Java Saturday morning for patrons and community members to come by and see his work firsthand.
Co-owner of Jongo Java Paul Schiro said he and Tim Colberson have the perfect space to offer and support local artists, and they hope to bring more in for the community to come see.
Blackwell first became interested in art at just 5 years old and has worked his way through pen and ink drawings, leatherwork and into painting. He even worked as an artist for the Air Force while also serving as a boat master in Alaska.
Blackwell spends his days teaching carving, drawing and studio arts at Isothermal Community College's Polk Center in Columbus and carves with the Tryon Wood Carvers at their studio at Tryon School of Arts and Crafts.
The teacher was proud to say all of his students who want to sell their woodcrafts have been successful, and he's happy to see more local people become interested in mountain heritage crafts.
"If you love your job, then you never work a day in your life," Blackwell said with a smile as he chiseled texture into a stump of a Wood Spirit design he was working on at Jongo.
Blackwell attributes his journey into wood crafting to his wife, Phoebe Blackwell, who is an author and illustrator of children's books, who he said pushed him into first purchasing wood carving tools in Hickory.
"She took the basket and she's pulling tools off like this, like crazy, and I was like, 'Whoa , whoa, do you see how much these things cost?' and she said, 'It doesn't matter, you've always wanted to do this - we're doing it,'" Blackwell said. "She's my muse."
Blackwell's first piece was a walking stick, which he said he still keeps around today to keep him humble.
"I am so blessed," Blackwell said. "God has given me so much and I am just a very happy person."
An ideal day of carving for Blackwell is spent surrounded by other wood carvers in the studio listening to Led Zeppelin or The Rolling Stones with a fresh reclaimed piece of red cedar or paulownia to dig into.
After working for a few years in advertising, Blackwell said he realized he enjoys the journey his work takes him on more than finishing each project. He tells each of his students to learn from their mistakes when carving and move on to the next piece – to keep going and not stop.
A fellow carver friend of his once told him that carving is life.
"I said what do you mean? And he said, 'Well, you know, in life if you work really hard it always pays off, and if you're carving and you stay dedicated to it, it'll pay off because you get to where you want to be,' and that's exactly right," Blackwell said. "It's an art that has been around for centuries."

We're just a few months away from Into the Woods hitting the big screen, and yes, the waiting has been agony beyond power of speech. But now, we finally have a taste of what the beloved Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine musical will look like on screen. Feast your eyes on the bewitching Meryl Streep, James Corden and Emily Blunt as the Baker and his wife, Johnny Depp as the lurking wolf, the charming Chris Pine on horseback, a pre-festival Anna Kendrick and more by photographer Peter Mountain.

Competitions people with robots and AI
Artificial intelligence (AI) is arguably the most exciting field in robotics. Everybody agrees that a robot can work in an assembly line, but there's no consensus on whether a robot can ever be intelligent. Like the term "robot" itself, artificial intelligence is hard to define.
So far, robots have only a weak artificial intelligence.
Is there any progress in moving from weak to strong AI?
Maybe on an assembly line robot is better to have a weak AI, because if they have a strong AI for them, this work will be boring, and the robots will require an eight-hour working day.

Urgh... What a crappy few days, if you don't mind me saying. I have not been my usual upbeat self because, to put it simply, I have not had the energy. It turns out I have a viral infection (again). After days of awful nights praying for sleep, a mysterious rash appeared on my face and neck quickly spreading to my legs. The rash wasn't alarming, but that combined with an awful metallic taste in my mouth left me wondering what the hell could be wrong now.
Exhaustion set in over the weekend. I was supposed to be visiting friends and the boy up north for a couple of days, but I couldn't muster up the energy to get out of bed let alone sit on a train for a few hours. So instead, the boy came to visit me. I am ashamed to say I can't have been much company. I deal with illness much better now than I used to. I still manage to keep a smile on my face and try not to wallow but I didn't have much energy to be out and about doing things. I often worry what type of company I truly am after nights of disturbed sleep and feeling generally like death. But surely anyone who is ill feels the same. Simple coughs and colds keep most of us wrapped up in bed wanting nothing more than the TV and a box of tissues for company.
But as my illnesses are ongoing I cannot perform this ritual all the time. I would get sick of my own company, I fear. I pulled myself together for a few moments to take a trip to the supermarket and it was the most bizarre experience. I was so drugged up on pain killers that I wandered around like a space cadet. I bought two books, which I don't remember buying. I bought a sandwich, which I don't remember eating. Then returned home only to pass out for a couple of hours.
I know what you must be thinking, 'poor boy came all that way for me to just sleep and walk around in a daze'. Well I know. And I hate it too. But everyone around me must understand that I can't be on top form always. I do what I can, when I can.
The doc informed me I have two huge ulcers in my throat (Ewwww), I had no idea they were there. So the plan is to rest up, recharge and gargle mouth wash to get rid of the nasties. Hopefully with a tad more sleep and generally feeling better my space cadet days will be over. (Well not entirely, I still have my blonde moments).

pin(redirected from pins down)
Also found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Medical, Legal, Idioms.
pin.One of the earliest human artifacts, pins were at first made of thorns, bone, or wood and were used as clothing fasteners, hairpins, and meat skewers. These long, single-shaft pins were early imitated in metal and were often tipped with ornamental knobs. The fibulae, prototype of the safety pin and probably one of the earliest applications of the spring coil, was popular from early antiquity through medieval times. It was the forerunner of the modern brooch through the hinged pin, which was developed by the Romans. Bent-wire hairpins are believed to have originated in England in the 16th cent.; the modern bobby pin was introduced in the 20th cent. In the 14th and 15th cent. in England the costliness and scarcity of plain pins caused Parliament to limit their sale to the first two days of January, for which women saved money all year—hence the term "pin money." In the 19th cent., with the fashion for enormous hats came the development of ornate jeweled hatpins.
a cylindrical or tapered rod that is used to join parts together, often in a precisely determined position, or to transfer relatively small loads. Pins are employed in fixed joints. In order to insert a pin, the parts are joined together and secured. A hole is then drilled and reamed at the location in the parts where the pin is to be inserted. In contrast to a cylindrical pin, a taper pin may be used repeatedly without reducing the precision with which the parts are positioned.
What does it mean when you dream about a pin?
A pin might have several meanings. Pins are small tools that help us sew something together, so perhaps we are dreaming about knitting something together. Pins can also hold a notice to a bulletin board, so perhaps the dream is trying to call our attention to something. We sometimes talk about "pinning blame" or "pinning on hopes" on someone. We can also "pin something down" or "walk on pins and needles."
pin(1) The male lead on a chip or cable connector. Each pin is plugged into its female counterpart to complete the circuit. The number of pins reflects the number of wires, or pathways, that carry signals. See plugs and sockets.
(2) (PIN) (Personal Identification Number) A type of password used for authentication. Typically four to six digits, the PIN is used to authenticate ATM and debit cards. The PIN may be the only authentication mechanism required, or it may be used with another password. See passcode and password.
(3) To place an object onto a home screen or home page. For example, in Windows and Windows Phone, "Pin to Start" means to place an application icon onto the Start screen. See Pinterest.
(4) (PIN) (Processor Independent NetWare) A version of NetWare 4.1 designed for portability to multiple platforms. Development was stopped in early 1995.

Ohio teen found; whereabouts of brother, mom, friend unknown
(CNN) -- A 13-year-old Ohio girl who had been missing since Wednesday along with her brother, mother and a family friend was found bound and gagged Sunday in the basement of a Mount Vernon, Ohio, home, authorities said.
Sarah Maynard was taken to a hospital for evaluation and treatment of non-life-threatening injuries, said Knox County Sheriff David Barber. Authorities have interviewed her "somewhat," he said, but would not divulge what was said. Police believe she has been held since Wednesday, he said.
The teen was recovered in an early morning raid on the home involving a SWAT team. Matthew Hoffman, 30, who lives in the home, was taken into custody following the raid about 8 a.m. ET, Barber said, and faces a kidnapping charge. Additional charges are expected, Barber said.
Sarah Maynard's mother, Tina Herrmann, 32, remains missing, along with 10-year-old Kody Maynard and Herrmann's friend, 41-year-old Stephanie Sprang.
Barber said a combination of intelligence information received and investigative work led authorities to the home. Authorities were hoping they would find all four people, but knew they might only find Sarah Maynard, he said.
Police were still investigating whether Hoffman knew any of the four people, he said. Asked if Hoffman was cooperating with authorities, Barber said he was not.
Herrmann failed to report to work at a Dairy Queen in Mount Vernon, in central Ohio, on Wednesday, Barber told CNN affiliate WBNS. A deputy twice went to her home in Howard, about nine miles east of Mount Vernon, and saw her pickup truck there. Although lights were on in the home, no one answered the door.
A Dairy Queen manager went into the home on Thursday and found blood inside, Barber told the station.
Hermann's truck was found Thursday night near Kenyon College in Gambier, Ohio, about seven miles southwest of Howard, authorities said.
The children were in school Wednesday, but not Thursday, the sheriff said. Sprang's car was found at Herrmann's home.
Asked about Hoffman's criminal record, Barber said he served prison time for an arson conviction in another state. He said authorities believe Hoffman could "absolutely" lead police to the other three.
Sarah Maynard, following her release from the hospital, likely would be sent to live with her father. Before she was found, Larry Maynard told WBNS, "I am expecting the worst, hoping for the best."
Donna Davis, who lives on the same street as the home where the girl was found, told WBNS Hoffman was a "weirdo" and that she made her children come indoors when he was outside.
"This doesn't happen in Mount Vernon," said another neighbor, Ronnetta Shults.
Mount Vernon is about 50 miles northeast of Columbus, Ohio.

Missing Ohio women, boy confirmed dead
(CNN) -- A kidnapping suspect provided information that led to the discovery of the bodies of a missing Ohio woman, her 10-year-old son and a family friend, authorities said Thursday.
The remains of Tina Herrmann, 32, her 10-year-old son, Kody Maynard, and her 41-year-old friend Stephanie Sprang were found in trash bags placed in the hollow of a tree, Knox County Sheriff David Barber said. Hearses left a wilderness area northwest of the town of Fredericktown in Knox County.
Herrmann's daughter, Sarah Maynard, 13, was found alive Sunday morning in Mount Vernon, about 50 miles northeast of Columbus.
Matthew Hoffman, 30, who lives in the home where Sarah Maynard was found, provided the information that led to the discovery of the three bodies, Barber said. Hoffman currently faces a kidnapping charge in the abduction of Sarah Maynard, Barber said.
Hoffman has experience as a tree trimmer, the sheriff said.
"I have never experienced anything this big, this serious and this tragic," said Barber, who announced the news at a somber press conference.
When asked if officials took the death penalty off the table in order to receive information on the location of the bodies, Knox County prosecutor John C. Thatcher replied that he could not say whether Hoffman had confessed to the killings.
The county coroner will conduct autopsies and provide information to prosecutors, officials said.
Thatcher said he is not sure yet what charges the evidence will support, but he expects to take the case to the grand jury within four to six weeks.
A judge on Tuesday set a $1 million bond for Hoffman, who is accused of keeping Sarah bound and gagged in his basement, authorities said. The suspect has a November 23 preliminary hearing on the kidnapping charge, authorities said.
A message left Thursday night with public defender Bruce Malek was not immediately returned.
Barber said earlier this week that authorities were fortunate to find Sarah, but he said blood evidence found in Herrmann's home coupled with the amount of time the three have been missing had made the situation more serious.
The girl was at the Herrmann residence, but Barber did not indicate whether she saw the slayings.
The bodies were found about 20 miles from the Herrmann home.
Sarah Maynard was found in an early morning raid involving a SWAT team and was released from the hospital Monday, after being evaluated and treated for injuries that were not thought to be life-threatening, the sheriff said.
"Sarah is with family and is doing well." said Barber. "She is a very brave little girl," he said.
The disappearance of the three residents November 10 prompted a weeklong search throughout the rural region. But, in the end, the crucial information came down to Hoffman, Barber said.
"His information led to the location of the bodies," the sheriff said.
"We are a small community here. We became close to the victims' families," Barber said Thursday. "We have to take care of the survivors."
Police said Tuesday they did not believe Hoffman was working with an accomplice. When asked whether the incident was a home invasion, Barber said it was not, but added that "either they knew Hoffman or Hoffman made himself known to them."
Herrmann failed to report to work at a Dairy Queen in Mount Vernon, in central Ohio, on November 10, Barber told CNN affiliate WBNS. A deputy twice went to her home in Howard, about nine miles east of Mount Vernon, and saw her pickup there. No one answered the door, though lights were on in the home.
A Dairy Queen manager went into the home on November 11 and found blood inside, Barber told the station.
Asked about Hoffman's criminal record, Barber said he served prison time for an arson conviction in another state.
Dawna Davis, who lives next to Hoffman, said she did not trust him.
"He was just different. He was odd. He just climbed trees and watched us," she said about Hoffman.

TripAdvisor's Rankings Of 'Dirtiest Hotels' Is Not Defamation
from the but-now-we-know-who's-upset-about-it... dept
The court isn't buying it, at all.
It is true that the Defendant published an article with a numerical ranking, and that the Defendant suggests reasons to support its opinions, including that "87 percent of those who reviewed [Grand Resort] recommended against staying there," but neither the fact that Defendant numbers its opinions one through ten, nor that it supports its opinions with data, converts its opinions to objective statements of fact. Any reasonable person can distinguish opinions based on reasons from facts based on reasons—just because TripAdvisor states its reasons for including Grand Resort on its list does not make the assertion one of objective fact. A person who is unable to distinguish the phrase "it is hot," a subjective opinion, from "it is one-hundred degrees," an objective fact, is hardly "reasonable." Similarly, TripAdvisor's "Dirtiest Hotels" list is clearly unverifiable rhetorical hyperbole.I find the implicit suggestion in there that the plaintiff is not a reasonable person somewhat amusing as well. Either way, as Goldman notes, this should be a somewhat useful case whenever others are threatened for opinion-based lists they put together. That said, as a district court ruling it doesn't have much widespread impact, but with clear and concise reasoning, that doesn't mean it can't be helpful in convincing other courts to rule similarly.
TripAdvisor's list is of the genre of hyperbole that is omnipresent. From law schools to restaurants, from judges to hospitals, everything is ranked, graded, ordered and critiqued. Undoubtedly, some will accept the array of "Best" and "Worst" rankings as impenetrable maxims. Certainly, some attempt to obfuscate the distinction between fact and opinion as part of their course of business. For those that read "eat here," "sleep there" or "go to this law school" and are unable to distinguish measured analysis of objective facts from sensational "carnival barking," compliance will be both steadfast and assured. Nevertheless, the standard, fortunately, is what a "reasonable person" would believe. A reasonable person would not confuse a ranking system, which uses consumer reviews as its litmus, for an objective assertion of fact; the reasonable person, in other words, knows the difference between a statement that is "inherently subjective" and one that is "objectively verifiable."

MIAMI (Reuters) - A Florida mayor was arrested on corruption charges on Wednesday for allegedly failing to disclose that he worked as a paid consultant for a health clinic company looking to expand in his city.
Homestead Mayor Steven Bateman is the third mayor in the Miami area to be arrested on graft or ethics charges in recent weeks. Mayoral races are officially nonpartisan and candidates are not required to list their party affiliation, but according to voter registration records Bateman is a Democrat.
Ed Griffith, a spokesman for State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle, said Bateman was arrested at his home as part of a probe into his $125-an-hour consulting job with Community Health of South Florida, Inc.
Bateman worked for the non-profit company while it sought approval from the Homestead city government to expand the number of its clinics in the city.
Bateman, 58, faces two felony counts of unlawful compensation on charges that he never publicly disclosed his work as a consultant. He was suspended from office by Florida Gov. Rick Scott after his arrest.
According to an arrest affidavit, Bateman received $3,625 from Community Health and billed for work he did on behalf of the company, including meetings with the mayor of Miami-Dade County.
Ben Kuehne, a lawyer for Bateman, could not be reached on Wednesday for comment.
As mayor of Homestead, Bateman is paid a base salary of $6,000 and his total pay package is more than $33,000, including health and life insurance, the affidavit said.
Bateman's re-election website says he is also the president of a construction company.
Earlier this month, FBI agents arrested two other mayors in Miami-Dade County on corruption charges alleging the two men separately accepted bribes in connection with purported government contracts awarded to their Miami-area towns.
Manuel Marono, the mayor of Sweetwater, and Michael Pizzi, the mayor of Miami Lakes, were suspended from office after being charged with conspiracy to commit extortion.

A key component to promoting cycling in Los Angeles is ensuring the safety of riders through judicial punishment for those who endanger lives either through reckless or deliberate acts [#4 of the Bike Writers Collective Cyclists Bill of Rights]. My condolences to the injured riders, Christian Stoehr and Ron Peterson of Cynergy Cycles, I hope this doctor is brought to justice. I'll post an update if any news comes forward regarding the case.
UPDATE: Dr. Thompson has pleaded not guilty to charges. The next proceeding will be September 12th, however he may not be in attendance after making arrangements for his council to appear on his behalf. [LAist]

After going out of his way to knock the rider to the ground, he then arrested the cyclist for attempted assault to the officer, all the while unaware his actions were being recorded on video tape by a tourist who later posted the event on YouTube. Regardless of your feelings on Critical Mass tactics, this is unacceptable law enforcement behavior, and I'm glad the NYPD has demoted the officer to desk duty while the matter is investigated.

From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...Tonight's recipe is one of the simple side dishes that I made for the early Thanksgiving dinner we shared with friends several weeks ago. These herb roasted carrots are delicious and they are very easy to prepare. The recipe was developed by Martha Rose Shulman for the New York Times and it is one of those simple treasures that's really nice to have in your recipe quiver, especially if you entertain a lot or have a large family to feed. You will love the play of the bitter herbs against the sweetness of the carrots and the ease with which this recipe comes together. While I do hope you'll give this recipe a try, what I really want to share with you tonight are memories of bologna sandwiches, my daddy and Chicago ward politics during WWII. My dad, a victim of tuberculosis who had a collapsed lung, had been rejected by all branches of the armed services. He keenly felt the rejection and his patriotism and need to serve led him to seek other venues. He actually flew with the Air Transport Command for several months before his x-rays caught up with him and he was grounded yet again. When he was sent home, he devoted himself to the civilian war effort and became an air raid warden and was elected an alderman following a stint as a ward precinct captain. As a young man he had been a union organizer so he was well suited for both jobs and took them seriously. While we didn't have a lot of air raids in Chicago, we had drills aplenty, and, should enemy aircraft miraculously stray into the midwestern heartland, my daddy was ready for them. Now, for those of you who younger than me, or are unfamiliar with ward politics in Chicago all those years ago, an alderman was basically a fixer/enforcer who delivered votes in return for favors. On election day, lists of voters were checked and those who had not yet exercised their civic responsibilities were found and encouraged to do so. It was a door-to-door effort and my dad really got to know the people in his ward. Their births, deaths, hopes and dreams were etched into his cortex and if help should be needed, he would be the first to offer assistance. He was a complex man, but he had a special affinity for the least, the lost and the lonely. Certain practices, now frowned upon, were commonplace back then, so free drinks at the local tavern and walking around or street money were a fixture of the political scene. Street money, then and now, is a legal financial perk given to local party officials by an electoral candidate's campaign in exchange for the official's support in turning out voters on election day. Back then, it bought a shot and a beer or a bologna sandwich and election day itself was a social event that brought the neighborhood together. In retrospect, it seems to me that we have traveled miles to nowhere since then. Money is threatening to consume our electoral process, and while it is getting harder and harder for the voices of individuals to be heard, we owe it to ourselves to continue trying. Please vote! Scream if you must, but vote. Someone is listening.
Roasted Carrots with Parsley and Thyme...from the kitchen of One Perfect Bitecourtesy of The New York Times
2 pounds carrots, peeled quartered or cut into sixths lengthwise (depending on the size), then into 2-inch lengths
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, chopped
1/2 teaspoon oregano
3 tablespoons finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
1) Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Oil a sheet pan or a baking dish large enough to fit all carrots in a single layer. Place carrots in a large bowl, and toss with olive oil, salt, pepper, thyme and oregano.
2) Spread in an even layer in prepared pan or baking dish. Cover with foil, and place in oven for 30 minutes. Uncover, and if carrots are not yet tender, turn heat down to 375 degrees and return to oven until tender, about 10 to 15 more minutes. Add parsley, stir gently, and adjust salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot, warm or at room temperature. Yield: Serves six.
