The 30-year-old Edberg , a former two-time Open champion , had wrestled control of the match away from Karbacher when the German , hampered by a left hamstring injury , decided he could n't continue under the stadium lights at the National Tennis Centre . " A win is a win . I 'll take it , " Edberg , who has announced that this will be his last Grand Slam event , said of the 3-6 6-3 6-3 1-0 victory . Ironically , Karbacher two years ago ended Ivan Lendl 's Grand Slam career here when the former champion had to retire in the middle of their first-round match . After seeing the trainer come out early in the third set , Edberg was not surprised by Karbacher 's decision not to go on . " I knew he had problems with something , " Edberg said . " I really was n't surprised . " Edberg had his own problems early in the match as the Swede battled to acclimate himself to the nighttime conditions while Karbacher was ripping passing shots and blasting serves past him . " I did n't really feel good to begin with , I had problems finding the timing on the ball , seeing the ball , " said Edberg , who upset Wimbledon champion and fifth-seeded Richard Krajicek in the first round . " This was one of these matches where I did n't play up to my standard . I had to fight hard . " Edberg 's tenacity paid off in the second set . Edberg lost his own serve twice , but he rallied for three breaks of his own , the last to wrap up the set . " That 's where the match sort of changed , " said Edberg . " I think once I got that second set , I felt a lot better about my game . " Edberg is starting to feel pretty good about postponing his swan song a lot longer .

The dollar rose slightly against the German mark , but edged lower against the Japanese yen . The Dow Jones industrial average ended down 64.73 points at 5,647.65 , its largest drop since July 15 , when it closed with a loss of 161 points . In the broader market , declining issues beat advances 1,627 to 743 on moderate volume of 321 million shares on the New York Stock Exchange . In the bond market , the 30-year Treasury bond fell 23/32 of a point , or $ 7.1875 on a $ 1,000 bond , raising its yield to 7.04 percent -- the highest since July 31 -- from 6.98 percent at Wednesday 's close . " Seven percent creates psychological problems and a legitimate competitor for money from equities , " said Ralph Bloch , chief technical analyst at Raymond James . " We could carry another 100 points lower in the Dow , " he said . " I 'm telling clients things are dicey going into next Friday ( Sept . 6 ) so let 's be careful . " Wall Street on Sept . 6 faces the key monthly employment report , which has been known to cause dramatic swings in stock prices . " We had two very strong economic reports , " said David Shulman , Salomon Bros . ' chief equity strategist . " There are more worries in bond land . Fears of a Fed tightening next month have resurfaced for the first time since the end of July . " The Commerce Department reported that the nation 's gross domestic product expanded at a 4.8 percent annual rate in the three months from April through June instead of the 4.2 percent estimated a month ago . In another report , sales of new homes jumped unexpectedly in July to the briskest rate in five months , driving prices up in a strong housing market . Sales shot up 7.9 percent last month to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 783,000 units -- the strongest since February , when new homes were selling at a rate of 784,000 a year . Analysts said the stock market was also worried about the impact on President Clinton 's re-election bid of his top political strategist resigning . Dick Morris , who is credited with resurrecting Clinton 's political fortunes over the past 18 months by masterminding his turn to the political centre , quit after a supermarket tabloid reported he engaged in a yearlong affair with a prostitute , with whom he allegedly shared confidential campaign documents . Analysts said Wall Street had grown accustomed to a moderate Republican in the form of [START_ENT] Democratic [END_ENT] President Clinton . Morris ' departure raised fears that Clinton would veer more to the left in a second term . The dollar closed at 1.4772 marks , up from 1.4767 late Wednesday . The dollar slipped to 108.40 yen from 108.45 . Oil markets rose sharply on a combination of low stocks , two hurricanes and allegations of illicit trading by Iraq .

December cotton closed 0.95 cent higher at 77.06 cents per pound on the New York Cotton Exchange despite some easing of concern about the twin hurricane threat to key U.S. growing areas with forecasts indicating both storms may remain offshore . Overseas , London 's FTSE 100 index had earlier climbed to 3,8921.1 just below its record of 3,922.1 , before edging down through the afternoon session to finish the day at 3,885.0 , a fall of 33.7 points .

GOLF - PARNEVIK TAKES ONE-SHOT LEAD AT GREATER MILWAUKEE OPEN . MILWAUKEE , Wisconsin 1996-08-31 Jesper Parnevik of Sweden fired a course record-tying eight-under-par 63 Saturday to take a one-shot lead into the final round of the $ 1.2 million Greater Milwaukee Open . Parnevik , who is seeking his first [START_ENT] PGA Tour [END_ENT] victory , moved to 19-under 194 for the tournament . Parnevik tied the 18-hole record set by Loren Roberts in 1994 at the Brown Deer Park Golf Course and also equalled Saturday by Greg Kraft . Nolan Henke , who led by two strokes entering the third round , carded a four-under 67 and was one stroke back at 18-under 195 . He is striving for his fourth career PGA Tour victory and first since the 1993 BellSouth Classic . Tiger Woods , who made the cut in his first tournament as a professional , shot a two-over-par 73 and was four under for the tournament . The 20-year-old Woods , who turned professional Tuesday after winning an unprecedented third successive U.S. Amateur Championship , struggled on the front nine , bogeying the first and seventh holes and double-bogeying the par-four , 359-yard ninth hole . After bogeying the 10th hole to move to four-over for the round , he rallied for birdies on 15 and 18 . After Parnevik started off his round by parring the first hole and bogeying the second , the Swede birdied six of the next seven holes . Parnevik continued to storm through the course , birdying three holes on the back nine , including two from 12 feet out on the 15th and 17th holes . " I ca n't remember when I 've putted this well , " said Parnevik . " I was disappointed when a 12-footer did n't go in . " My game feels very good . I 've been fading my driver but today whenever I set up for a fade it went straight . Whenever everyone 's making birdies , you never want to be even par . " Henke had a bogey-free round and birdied four holes , including a 45-footer on the par-three 215-yard seventh hole and one from 12 feet out on the 12th hole . " I did n't hit it very well today , " said Henke . " Jasper blew right by me . Once he did , I knew I had to make birdies just to keep up . I made some really good pars . I basically picked up where I left off yesterday afternoon . " Right now , I ca n't put my finger on what 's wrong . " Bob Estes shot a 67 for sole possession of third place at 15-under . Steve Stricker , who tied for second at last week 's World Series of Golf , and Stuart Appleby were both five shots off the lead at 14 under . Duffy Waldorf , who also tied for second at the World Series of Golf , carded a 70 to lead a group of six golfers at 13 under , including Kraft . The top four on the PGA Tour money list all skipped the tournament .

Statistics Canada on Friday reported Canada 's current account moved to a higher-than-expected C$ 1.15 billion second quarter surplus from a C$ 1.62 billion deficit in the first quarter . It was the first surplus since the fourth quarter of 1984 . The agency also reported Canada 's real gross domestic product rose a weaker-than-expected 0.3 percent in the second quarter or 1.3 percent at an annualized rate . While the data provided support for Canadian bonds , both Canadian and U.S. markets weakened after the release of strong U.S. economic data , including a report showing the Chicago Purchasing Managers August index rose to 60 from 51.2 in July .

Syria slams Israel on settlements . DAMASCUS 1996-08-30 Syria on Friday condemned Israel 's settlement policy and said Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was preparing for war with Arabs . " Practices of the Israeli government , especially its settlement activities , came to confirm that dealing with this government inflicts the biggest harm on the Arab cause , " state-run Damascus Radio said in a commentary . " When this government insists on stabbing the peace process and tearing it apart , this means that it is preparing for war , " the radio said . Palestinian President Yasser Arafat described this week the decision to expand settlements in the West Bank as a declaration of war . Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza observed a strike on Thursday to protest against the Israeli move . The radio urged Arabs to unify their ranks to thwart the policies of the right-wing Israeli government . " Israel could not confront a united Arab stand or usurp their rights because the Arab rights could be regained when they achieve unity and solidarity , " Damascus radio said . It welcomed the international criticism of Israel 's settlement policies but called for practical steps to force the Israeli government to abandon this policy . " It is important to translate the criticism into pressuring action to prevent Israel from undermining the big international efforts aimed at making the peace process achieve success , " the radio said . Syria and Arabs have been dismayed by [START_ENT] Netanyahu [END_ENT] 's refusal to trade the occupied Arab lands for peace , his support for the expansion of settlements and his insistance on Jerusalem as a unifed capital for Israel . Syria has held sporadic peace talks with Israel since 1991 without achieving a breakthrough .

Tripoli decks out for coup celebrations . Mona Eltahawy TRIPOLI 1996-08-30 Libyans are dressing up their capital Tripoli for celebrations on Sunday of the 27th anniversary of the coup which brought Muammar Gaddafi to power . Green flags and banners praise the " great revolution " and promise defiance against United Nations sanctions imposed for Libya 's refusal to hand over for trial two suspects wanted in connection with the 1988 bombing of a [START_ENT] Pan Am [END_ENT] flight over Lockerbie , Scotland . " We have chosen the challenge because it is our only option , " proclaimed one banner on the road to Tripoli airport which serves only internal flights because of the sanctions . Huge stadium lights are directed at the city 's Green Square where makeshift stages await Sunday 's festivities . Three African leaders -- from Niger , Guinea and Ghana -- are expected to attend the celebrations marking September 1 , 1969 when a group of young army officers , led by a 27-year-old Gaddafi , deposed King Mohammed Idris . " The revolution has brought us great achievements ... We are comfortable the revolution has taken care of us , improved our lives and given us capabilites , " Samer Ammar Soliman , 42 , told Reuters as he came out of Friday prayers . But some Libyans have begun to show their discontent in the country 's east , which has become a hotbed of militant violence . Tripoli-based diplomats and exiled opponents said Gaddafi 's airforce blasted in July rebel strongholds in the mountainous Jebel al-Akhdar region . Travellers arriving in Egypt say militants and police officers clash regularly in Benghazi . At least 20 people were killed in the capital in early July after bodyguards loyal to Gaddafi 's sons fired at spectators of a football match who were chanting subversive slogans . Gaddafi has dismissed any unrest as the work of foreigners , and last year deported thousands of Sudanese and Egyptian workers .

Consumer spending , incomes edge up in July . Glenn Somerville WASHINGTON 1996-08-30 Consumer spending barely edged up in July , the Commerce Department said Friday , as income growth slowed abruptly to the weakest pace in six months . Spending rose 0.2 percent to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of $ 5.15 trillion after dropping a revised 0.4 percent in June . Incomes from wages , salaries and all other sources gained 0.1 percent to a rate of $ 6.47 trillion after a 0.9 percent jump in June . Department officials said July 's slight gain in incomes was the weakest for any month since January , when they were flat . Wages and salaries came under pressure in July as a shorter average workweek and lower hourly earnings cut into paychecks . The department said wages and salaries decreased by $ 6.9 billion in July after climbing $ 45 billion in June . " In July , average weekly hours and average hourly earnings declined , more than offsetting the effect of an increase in employment , " Commerce said . But more money went into savings accounts , as savings held at 5.3 cents out of each dollar earned in both June and July . That was the highest savings rate since October last year , when 5.5 cents out of each dollar earned was being saved . The generally lackluster report on spending and incomes in July had been expected . At the same time , the department said in a separate report that new orders received by U.S. factories climbed strongly in July , with widespread gains across most major categories . Orders increased 1.8 percent to a seasonally adjusted $ 317.6 billion , significantly stronger than the 1 percent rise forecast by [START_ENT] Wall Street [END_ENT] economists . That followed a revised 0.7 percent decline in June orders . Commerce said previously that spending at retail stores was up only 0.1 percent in July , partly because of softer sales of new cars and light trucks . In addition , the Labour Department 's July employment report had foreshadowed the muted income growth . It showed average hourly earnings fell in July by 0.2 percent to $ 11.00 and the average workweek shortened to 34.3 hours from 34.7 in June . Gains in personal income , which includes wages and salaries as well as income from sources such as dividends , interest and businesses , are essential for funding consumer purchases , which fuel two-thirds of national economic activity . Spending on all types of durable goods , which includes cars , fell to an annual rate of $ 626.3 billion in July from $ 633.6 billion in June . But spending on nondurable products increased moderately to a rate of $ 1.55 trillion from $ 1.54 trillion in June , while spending for services was up to $ 2.97 trillion in July from $ 2.96 trillion . Payrolls of manufacturing companies rose in July by $ 2.3 billion to an annual rate of $ 678 billion .

Opposition group says Iraqis advance in north Iraq . LONDON 1996-08-31 An Iraqi opposition group in exile said on Saturday it had received reports that Iraqi forces were shelling and advancing on the Kurdish town of Arbil in northern Iraq . A London-based spokesman of the Iraqi National Congress said Iraqi artillery was shelling the city and Iraqi tanks had advanced to within 10 km ( six miles ) of Arbil , the administrative centre of the Kurdish rebel-controlled region of northern Iraq . " At 4.50 a.m. Iraq time ( 0050 GMT ) Iraqi forces began an artillery attack on the outskirts of Arbil , " the spokesman , who asked not to be identified , told [START_ENT] Reuters [END_ENT] in a telephone call . There was no independent confirmation of the report which the spokesman said came from the organisation 's members in Arbil . He said damage and casualties in the city were heavy and Kurdish forces were defending the city . President Bill Clinton on Friday ordered the U.S. military to ready itself for any possible action as Washington turned up the heat in an escalating crisis over Iraqi troop movements in northern Iraq . On Thursday , Iraq accused Iran of aggression and said it reserved the right to retaliate for Tehran 's alleged deployment of troops into northern Iraq , where fighting broke out between the two main Iraqi Kurdish rebel groups two weeks ago .

SOCCER - REAL SCRAPE 1-1 DRAW IN SCRAPPY OPENING MATCH . LA CORUNA , Spain 1996-08-31 A late goal by newly-signed defender Roberto Carlos saved the blushes of Real Madrid coach Fabio Capello and his multi-billion peseta line-up in the opening game of the Spanish championship on Saturday . The Brazilian 's 79th-minute effort was enough to earn Real a point from a scrappy 1-1 draw at fellow title contenders Deportivo Coruna . Deportivo started strongly , taking the lead midway through the first half when former Auxerre playmaker Corentine Martins headed home a corner after a flick-on by Brazilian-born Spanish international midfielder Donato . Real looked to be in deep trouble shortly after the break when Luis Milla was sent off for committing two bookable offences in as many minutes . But Deportivo were unable to capitalise on their numerical advantage , and were themselves reduced to ten men when Armando Alvarez was sent off 15 minutes from time . Shortly afterwards Roberto Carlos found space in the home defence and equalised for Real with a shot that was deflected past despairing Deportivo ' keeper Jacques Songo'o . In a frantic final five minutes there were chances at both ends , and Donato , who had earlier been booked , was sent off for protesting about the incursion of Real players at a free kick . Before the match Deportivo chairman Augusto Lendoiro said he would ignore a FIFA decision banning Brazilian midfielder Mauro Silva from playing in the match for failing to join his national side 's tour of [START_ENT] Europe [END_ENT] . In the event , coach John Toshack decided not to use Silva , who had claimed he did not join the Brazil squad because he had lost his passport .

This separation allows easy harvest of PBMC 's . Note that some red blood cell trapping ( presence of erythrocytes & granulocytes ) may occur in the PBMC or Ficoll-Paque layer . Major may sometimes occur in the PBMC layer . Ethylene diamine tetra-acetate ( ) and heparin are commonly used in conjunction with Ficoll-Paque ( TM ) to prevent clotting . At one time , fairly early in the research for diabetes treatment by transplantation , Ficoll was used in an attempt to separate islets of Langerhans from enzyme ( collagenase ) digested human pancreatic tissue . The theory was that separated islets could then be used for transplantation into patients with . In practice , using Ficoll led to difficulty obtaining a pure enough preparation of islets , with enough islet recovery from the original tissue , for safe and effective islet transplantation in humans . Because Ficoll-Paque layering is a very slow process , devices that aid in the most time-consuming step , the overlay , have been developed . One such a product is SepMate-50 , a specialized tube containing a porous insert that forms a physical barrier between the Ficoll-Paque and blood sample . This allows the blood sample to be rapidly pipetted onto the insert , avoiding the need for overlaying it directly onto Ficoll-Paque . The SepMate insert also reduces the duration of the centrifugation step , and after centrifugation , the top layer containing plasma and PBMCs can be poured into a new tube . Other devices include a column containing a porous high-density polyethylene barrier or " frit . " These products allow blood to be layered on much more quickly without mixing polysaccharide and blood . An example of such a product is the " Accuspin System Histopaque-1077 " sold by Sigma Aldrich . The cost of this product is significantly higher than basic Ficoll and Ficoll-Paque products . It is also possible to have the Ficoll-Paque separating system included in the Vacutainer

Interstate 691 ( abbreviated I-691 ) is a portion of the [START_ENT] Interstate Highway System [END_ENT] in Connecticut beginning at Interstate 91 in Meriden and ending at Interstate 84 near the Cheshire - Southington town line . It is in length , including of the exit ramp to the merge with westbound I-84 . I-691 is also known as the Henry D. Altobello Highway for its entire length . I-691 is the main east -- west highway of the city of Meriden . The freeway actually begins in Middlefield as Route 66 , technically becoming I-691 at the junction with I-91 ( Exit 11 ) . However , westbound signage indicates I-691 begins at the start of the freeway ( just west of Exit 13 ) , while eastbound signage shows I-691 ending at the Route 15 interchange ( at eastbound Exit 10 about west of the interchange with I-91 ) . To go from I-91 northbound to I-691 westbound ( or from I-691 eastbound to I-91 southbound ) , one must actually use Route 15 . In the 1940s , the I-691 routing was part of a planned US 6A Expressway from Southington to Willimantic . A section of the expressway ( from its Middlefield terminus west to Exit 8 ) first opened in 1966 . By 1968 , the US 6A designation was dropped in favor of Route 66 . The highway was extended west to Exit 4 by 1971 . The connection to I-84 was eventually completed in 1987 , with the renumbering to I-691 done at the same time . The portion east of I-91 remained as Route 66 . Environmental and community groups successfully blocked attempts to extend the freeway east of its present terminus due to potential impacts on a reservoir that provides drinking water for the local area . A compromise was reached in the late 1990s allowing CONNDOT to convert Route 66 from a 2-lane road to a 4-lane divided highway from the eastern end of the I-691 freeway to Route 9 in Middletown .

Categories : Criminal Justice , From the Executive Director Print this page by Hector Villagra August 1 , 2011 A few days after the end of the Pelican Bay hunger strike , I was interviewed on KCRW ’s “ Which Way , LA ? ” in the same segment as spokespeople from California Prison Health Services and the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation . The CDCR , through Undersecretary of Operations Scott Kernan , tried to defend its reckless and indiscriminate use of solitary confinement ; it succeeded only in giving an exhibition in government speak . “ Which Way , LA ? ” host Warren Olney asked Kernan if Pelican Bay prisoners in solitary confinement do in fact “ spend at least 22 and a half hours every day in windowless , concrete cells , the remaining time alone in concrete exercise yards . ” Parsing Kernan ’s answer should have yielded , at some point , either a yes or no . Kernan started by stating that “ solitary confinement is a word that ’s used ... loosely ... ” But instead of explaining how he thought the word has been misapplied to Pelican Bay , he just reverted to the talking point that the guys in “ the hole ” are the so-called worst of the worst . “ [ t ] hese inmates again are the most dangerous gang leaders that we have in the state of California and , let the truth be told , in the nation . So these guys are really truly the most dangerous offenders . So we have definitely -- Pelican Bay was built to house the worst of the worst . And it is meant to control their movements considerably ... . So let ’s just be very , very clear that these are bad guys , and so we keep them very controlled . But it is not solitary confinement , nor is it torturous behavior as described by some . Ok , so these guys are the most dangerous , the worst of the worst . But are they in fact kept in windowless , concrete cells for 22 and a half hours a day ? A couple minutes later , when Kernan suggested that there was no overcrowding at Pelican Bay because the inmates are housed in single cells , Olney pressed the question one more time : “ Well , are those single cells , in fact , windowless concrete cells , and are they required to stay there 22 and a half hours a day ? ” Kernan responded : “ Um , well , they have programming , I do n’t know if I would say 22 hours , 22 and a half hours a day , but , probably very close to that . ” This is a sizeable number of words to say , in effect , “ yes . ” What could be the point of Kernan ’s filibustering other than to avoid the real questions : Does it benefit public safety to house inmates in a concrete box ? How do people react to extreme isolation ? Is it inhumane to isolate a person in a windowless concrete cell for 22.5 hours a day for months , years , or even decades ? Mr. Kernan elected to end his interview rather than attempt to answer . Hector Villagra is the Executive Director of the ACLU / SC . Full transcript of Mr. Kernan ’s radio interview : [START_ENT] Warren Olney [END_ENT] : “ Scott Kernan is Undersecretary of the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation , welcome back to our program . I understand that you helped to resolve some of these issues . Which of those that I listed were in fact dealt with , and did the state make some concessions ? ” Scott Kernan : “ I do n’t know that I would say concessions ; you know , the inmates had a list of demands , we took a look at them , and I think that at the end of the day we realized that as you just described a watch cap in inclement weather and a wall calendar did n’t pose significant security concerns and so those changes were made . We ’re also looking at a number of things including the very complicated gang validation process . I ’d also just point out to you that the inmates at Pelican Bay that started this are there because of their behavior . These are the gang leaders that are running the various prison gangs and as such are the scourge of society in our prisons . A lot of violence associated with it . So anyway we did evaluate it and we did make some changes to our policy and we ’re going to look at the other changes that the inmates desire moving forward . ” KCRW : “ What about at the other prisons ? ” Scott Kernan : “ Well really it was , again , generated by inmates at Pelican Bay . So the central issues were related to them and it really is a illustration of the power that these guys represent over other offenders . For at the height of it , six thousand , sixty-five hundred or so , at 13 prisons , although that dissipated very quickly , and really the core hunger strikers were probably under a hundred at Pelican Bay . ” KCRW : “ It ’s been reported that at Pelican Bay many prisoners are in solitary confinement , and then when they are they spend at least 22 and a half hours every day in windowless , concrete cells , the remaining time alone in concrete exercise yards , are those things true ? ” Scott Kernan : “ The solitary confinement is a word that ’s used , I guess , loosely , a little bit . These inmates again are the most dangerous gang leaders that we have in the state of California and , let the truth be told , in the nation . These guys are running the Mexican mafia , the Nuestra Familia , the Black Guerilla family , the Aryan Brotherhood . ” So these guys are really truly the most dangerous offenders . So we have definitely -- Pelican Bay was built to house the worst of the worst . And it is meant to control their movements considerably . I mean these inmates are not there at Pelican Bay for just not obeying simple rules . They ’re in there for murdering inmates , and for you know following through with their criminal enterprises on the street . So let ’s just be very , very clear that these are bad guys , and so we keep them very controlled . But it is not solitary confinement , nor is it torturous behavior as described by some . ” KCRW : “ There ’s a panel of federal judges that have said the conditions within the prisons violate the constitutional ban on cruel and unusual punishment . Did they single out the kind of treatment that I described ? ” Scott Kernan : “ No , not at all . The court decision that you described is overall overcrowding in the system , and the fact that Pelican Bay inmates are largely single cell because they ’re so dangerous . They ’re one of the few areas that we have very reduced overcrowding , while the courts ruled that overall the Department ’s population is overcrowded leading to those constitutional violations ; it had nothing to do with the SHU specifically at Pelican Bay or any of the other SHUs that we have in the state . ” KCRW : “ Well are those single cells , in fact , windowless concrete cells and are they required to stay there 22 and a half hours a day ? ” Scott Kernan : “ Um , well , they have programming , I do n’t know if I would say 22 hours , 22 and a half hours a day , but , probably very close to that . They get an hour a day of yard and showers and if they have to go to they can have visits and go to medical appointments and the like but it is , it is stark correctional environment for our most dangerous offenders . ” KCRW : “ Most dangerous as they are , there are those who say that conditions of that kind can produce panic attacks , depression , inability to concentrate , memory loss , aggression , self-mutilation , and various forms of psychosis . Is that true ? And even if they are worst of the worst , is it appropriate to have those kinds of consequences ? ” Scott Kernan : “ Interesting question . The federal courts have been in the Department of corrections and rehabilitations mental health process for a long time and none of the inmates that are involved in this hunger strike at SHU , we do n’t allow mental health inmates to be there . So any inmate that had any kind of mental health concern would not be housed in the SHU at Pelican Bay . ” KCRW : “ Ok , so how long do you think it will take to resolve these other issues with what , you do n’t want to call solitary confinement , and also with the question of gang validation which they complain as though I understand it that it takes so long that they ’re then accused of being snitches when they get back into the general population or anywhere near it . I suppose if they ’re confined to single cells they ’re not really in the general population . What about those issues ? Will that take you longer to resolve ? ” Scott Kernan : “ It ’s a little bit more complicated than that . What they ’re referring to is about the debriefing process is that when an inmate wants to get out of SHU and wants to disassociate himself with the gangs he can do so and he has to go through a debriefing process . And in that debriefing process he must identify criminal behavior that he ’s been involved in , and others . The SHU inmates are taking umbrage with that suggestion , that that ’s not appropriate . We completely disagree and if you talk to the inmates that have went [ sic ] through the debriefing process and got out of the gang life , they will tell you that the debriefing process , we get it right a hundred percent of the time . So you know while we ’re going to look at all these issues , we definitely think that there could be some changes to the validation and debriefing process but we ’re going to do that with the input of not only the stakeholders of the inmate side but the stakeholders of the law enforcement and the gang investigators that work so hard every day to protect our streets and our prisons . ” KCRW : “ Okay , well thanks for being on our program . ” Scott Kernan : “ Thank you . ” KCRW : “ Scott Kernan , Undersecretary of the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation , elected not to talk with any of our other guests . ” Did you like this ?

The Medical Leader » Eastern KY counties developing multi-county trail system The Medical Leader Home Home > Community News , Uncategorized > Eastern KY counties developing multi-county trail system Eastern KY counties developing multi-county trail system November 18th , 2011 ECO ECONOMY : Eastern Kentucky communities are joining forces to develop a trail system through several counties . Neighboring West Virginia communities are already seeing benefits from development of the Hatfield and McCoy Trail System , which attracts thousands of tourists and generates millions in revenue each year . This photo was taken during the 2011 Trailfest in Gilbert , W.Va . PIKEVILLE -- Counties throughout eastern Kentucky plan to boost the economy by developing and promoting adventure tourism activities . Big Sandy Area Development Director Sandy Runyon , who has worked with local leaders to establish trail systems in eastern [START_ENT] Kentucky [END_ENT] for a number of years , reports that officials in Breathitt , Clay , Knott , Leslie , Bell , Letcher , Perry , Owsley and Harlan counties have worked together for quite some time to develop a trail system that would attract ATV riders , horse enthusiasts , hikers and others into eastern Kentucky . Runyon explained that those counties have entered into an interlocal agreement regarding the trail system , with the understanding that each county is responsible for trail development and maintenance in their counties . Officials in these counties also agree that counties would assist each other with maintenance or other issues on neighboring properties , with the understanding that counties wo n't be billed for that service and with goal of eventually connecting all trails together in one large system . The Pike County Fiscal Court is the first of several Big Sandy area counties to become a part of the initiative by passing a resolution to join the multi-county effort during a Nov. 1 meeting . Although Pike county officials talked about developing a trail system to mimic the successful Hatfield-McCoy ATV Trail system in West Virginia , Runyon believes the interlocal agreement , once it is finalized , will encompass all types of trails and trail-based activities . The first step is for Fiscal Courts in those counties to pass a resolution stating the county 's intent on participating . Thereafter , county attorneys will hash out a finalized interlocal agreement that suits the needs of all counties . The Big Sandy ADD is currently preparing resolutions for other Big Sandy counties . “ I 'm not sure how many counties will sign on , ” Runyon said . “ But we know that Pike , Floyd , Magoffin and Martin counties are interested and we expect that Johnson County will also be interested . Our goal is to have any kind of agreement they enter into to include all trails . ” Once the interlocal agreement between the counties is finalized , Runyon said it is likely that individual counties will be responsible for obtaining land-use permits from residents , which could be a “ huge endeavor ” in counties like Pike County , where officials have identified 200 property owners along one potential trail route . Runyon said the biggest issue in connecting eastern Kentucky trails is the liability that property owners face when they allow the public to come onto their property . There has been some effort at the state level to pass legislation to ease the property liability burden , but the state 's tort law , allowing people to sue for various reasons , may prevent further success of that effort . One bill passed the House last year , but it died without a vote in the Senate . Runyon said the laws enacted by the legislature show progress . “ I do think there is a way around all of this if everybody can work together , and they truly do work together , and try to add all the needs of everybody involved , ” she said . “ I think we can make some progress . ” Areas like Harlan , Bell , Knott Leslie and Knott counties found ways around the liability issues and are able to market trails and host large-scale trail events because a large corporate landowner or private landowners with large , usable tracks of property provided a long-term lease to the county . “ Bell County is the new kid on the block , ” Runyon said . “ There was a company there that leased 7,600 acres to the county . They held an ATV event there three weeks ago that attracted 3,000 riders . So , it 's possible to do this . ” Runyon said the local residents contacted by the Big Sandy ADD have reported that they are excited about the potential . “ The only resistance we see is the unknown , ” she said . “ If every county develops a block of property and show the locals that it will work , that people will come in here to ride these trails and there is economic benefit to that , then I think local landowners will want to get involved . ” She is asking all counties to assess properties that might be available for trail development . The multi-county coalition will make the region more eligible to receive multi-county coal severance tax funds and grant funding for trail development projects , Runyon explained . “ We truly believe here that tourism will be an economic development engine , ” Runyon said . “ It wo n't be the only engine , but it will be a major economic tool for this region . ” Share and Enjoy : Author : admin Categories : Community News , Uncategorized Tags : Comments are closed .

Following last season 's exploits that led the Seagulls to the Npower League One title , Gus Poyet 's side go into the Championship full of renewed hope and optimism for what lies ahead.One player not looking to dwell on the niceties that come with the opening of a new home is Gary Dicker , who says the players must adapt quickly to their new surroundings in order to continue pushing in the right direction . " It 's a big pitch , " the 25-year-old confirmed . " We have to get used to playing here when it is full . We need to punish teams when we have the ball . If we can make this place hard to play in for other teams , it will be a massive thing for us . " I 've played at Wembley before , but this pitch feels bigger - it is beautiful to play on . " Brighton could be regarded as having an outside chance for back-to-back promotions , but if one thing is certain it 's that Poyet has got the Seagull 's back playing football the right way . The headline summer signing of Craig Mackail-Smith will undoubtedly add extra firepower to their ranks , but a realistic target of consolidation and a top half finish will ensure the feel-good factor remains at Brighton for another season at least . Scotland international Mackail-Smith , however , will miss the club ’s Carling Cup tie with Gillingham next week because of his latest call-up to the national squad -- much to the annoyance of manager Gus Poyet . The [START_ENT] Brighton [END_ENT] boss said : “ We will always respect players who want to play for their countries so we wo n't stop him from going . Saying that , it 's not very clever when you put an international game in the middle of a week when you have a cup game . " This is Scotland , not Australia or Argentina . I think they knew from two months ago that it was a Carling Cup week and there are a few Scottish players in England . " I am not going to fight the Scottish FA over it . I am going to give him the freedom to go . I loved playing for Uruguay . I will never stop a player playing for their national team . " I am very pleased for Craig and I would , of course , like him to play . It would be very disappointing if he goes to Scotland , misses the Gillingham game and does n't play , so it 's up to the manager .

( Mark Almond | Associated Press | File ) By JOHN ZENORAssociated Press Published : Monday , February 13 , 2012 at 6:01 a.m. . Last Modified : Monday , February 13 , 2012 at 11:27 p.m. MONTGOMERY -- Alabama ’s suspension-riddled team expects to get some reinforcements for Tuesday ’s game against No. 14 Florida , but leading scorers JaMychal Green and Tony Mitchell wo n’t be among them . Crimson Tide coach Anthony Grant said Monday that guards Trevor Releford and Andrew Steele will “ most likely ” return for a game that could supply a huge boost for the NCAA tournament hopes of a team once flirting with the top 10 -- or a second-straight setback minus key players . “ The main thing right now for our guys to understand is the importance of making good decisions and understanding the consequences when you make poor decisions and then moving on from that and learning from that , ” Grant said . “ So we ’re dealing with that . It ’s disappointing and unfortunate that we have to deal with this in the middle of the season . “ It is what it is , so right now as a team we have to focus on the things we can control , and we have a very challenging game here against a very talented opponent in Florida . We have to get ready to play the game . ” Grant suspended Green , Releford and Steele indefinitely just before Saturday ’s loss at LSU for violating team rules , sending them packing for Tuscaloosa before tipoff.That was also the second game of Mitchell ’s suspension.The disciplinary actions left the Tide ( 16-8 , 5-5 Southeastern Conference ) without players responsible for 69 percent of its scoring , 57 percent of rebounding and 54 percent of assists at a time when the stakes are ratcheted up . Green and [START_ENT] Mitchell [END_ENT] are the team ’s top scorers and rebounders , while Releford leads Alabama in assists and Steele is a key role player . Grant said his decision to hold the players out had much to do with the long-term quality of the program and trying to build “ the values and standards that you want your team to represent . ” He has n’t elaborated on the reasons for the suspensions . Grant declined to say if the violations of Mitchell and Green were more serious , but reiterated that their suspension remained indefinite . “ I do n’t want to get into that , that ’s just the way it is right now , ” he said.This is the third time Grant has suspended Green , a first-team All - SEC player , during his three seasons , including a three-game string early last season and one game at the end of 2009-10 . Grant did n’t rule it out when asked if he had a “ three-strike ” policy that might keep Green from returning . “ I ’ll make some decisions on that later , ” he said . “ Right now my focus is on getting prepared for Florida . ” Alabama had risen to No. 12 in the rankings in December and won three straight before the LSU game.The bold decision on the suspensions was no surprise to Gators coach Billy Donovan , who was Grant ’s boss for a dozen years at Marshall and Florida . “ I know Anthony Grant about as well as anybody , and I think that he has got incredible integrity and character and knows exactly the way he wants his program run and what he ’s going to do , ” Donovan said.The Tide ’s eight remaining players -- half of them freshmen -- managed to come fairly close before losing 67-58 to LSU , with freshman Rodney Cooper scoring 28 points . Alabama had beaten Auburn by 18 points without Mitchell . Now comes a much bigger challenge , even with Releford and Steele.The Gators ( 19-6 , 7-3 ) opened last March with a 78-51 rout of a Tide team that still had aspirations of winning an SEC title and making the NCAA field . Florida is also short-handed , but because of injuries . The Gators wo n’t have their top subs , forward Will Yeguete ( concussion ) and guard Mike Rosario ( bruised hip ) , for the game , Donovan

SEC Media Days : SB Nation Roundup Regarding Mark Richt , AJ Green , and the Georgia Bulldogs by T Kyle King on Jul 22 , 2010 12:01 PM EDT in Football Tweet 3 comments Email Print Mark Richt ’s turn at the microphone at SEC Media Days featured no questions concerning agents , though it is open to debate whether this was due to " a voluntary hiatus , " an " order " ( with consequences for disobedience ) , or " a request on Georgia ’s behalf to hold off on all questions regarding the [START_ENT] NCAA [END_ENT] ’s investigation into AJ Green ’s alleged presence at the agent-sponsored South Beach Party currently erasing half the games played in the 2009 college football season . " ( In the meantime , Dawg Sports has confirmed with a relative of AJ Green ’s that the star receiver was attending a family function in the Palmetto State at the time . ) The summary of Coach Richt ’s remarks authored by Spencer Hall ( whose presence at the event I believe to be confirmed by this photograph , unless I miss my guess as to the identity of the bespectacled plaid-clad fellow with sideburns at the center ) is linked to above , and C&F ; ’s live blog of the event is here . Coach Richt ’s job security came up , though I have no idea why . For his part , AJ did n’t know how big this was . Now , if you ’ll excuse me , I ’m about to go wolf down a Chick-fil-A spicy chicken sandwich , of the sort the hardworking reporters present in the greater metropolitan Birmingham area cruelly were denied yesterday .

His biggest faux-pas so far was his “ celebration ” against LSU last year , and we all know how that went .

MAA - Spring 2008 - Donald H. Gilden , '63 On the Heels of MS Donald H. Gilden , ’ 63 , knew the moment he touched the dying man ’s cold hand he wanted to become a doctor . He was just five years old when he made his decision . His grandfather had taken him to visit a friend who was dying of congestive heart failure and was surviving in an oxygen tent . Young Gilden was under strict orders not to disturb the man , but he disobeyed his grandfather slipping his hand under the tent . The old man squeezed the boy ’s fingers and told him stories about his grandfather . “ After that day I never stopped talking about it , ” says Gilden , professor and chairman of the department of neurology and professor of microbiology at the University of Colorado School of Medicine . “ I was going to be a doctor when I grew up . I never wanted to do anything else . ” Gilden , age 70 , has indeed made his mark on the profession . He is recognized as a pioneer in the field of neurovirology for groundbreaking work relating to shingles and multiple sclerosis ( MS ) . After nearly 150 years of medical speculation , Gilden discovered that varicella zoster virus -- the virus that causes shingles -- is latent in human ganglia . More than a million people a year suffer from shingles , and his work helped lead to a shingles vaccination . He has also been working to track down the virus he believes causes MS , a disease that affects about a quarter of a million people in the United States . But this has been far more challenging . Yet Gilden is focused on what he wants to accomplish and understands that it will perhaps take the rest of his life , or even longer , to reach answers . “ You have to be patient , ” he says . “ Science goes little by little . Progress is little by little . ” For his work , Gilden has received an alumni award for distinguished service from the University of Chicago School of Medicine , the International Society for NeuroVirology Pioneer Award , and , in May , he will receive the Medical Alumni Association ’s Honor Award and Gold Key , presented for outstanding medical accomplishments and distinguished service to mankind . A neurologist by training , Gilden sees patients who suffer from migraines , multiple sclerosis , Alzheimer ’s , stroke , and Parkinson ’s . “ I will see anyone , ” he says . “ Clinical neurology has always been one of my first loves . ” But most of his time is spent in the lab conducting research in the microscopic world of DNA , RNA , viruses , and proteins . “ Sometimes in the lab my head is spinning because we have big things going on , ” Gilden says . As a boy growing up in Baltimore , Gilden ’s world revolved around school and working summers in the family business , Sam Gilden & Son , a wholesale store that supplied hair tonic , razor blades , bobby pins , toothpaste , and other items to local drug stores . He unloaded trucks , packed orders , swept floors , and , when he was old enough , made deliveries in a bright red Dodge delivery truck His father saw him taking over the business one day , a task which demanded hard work and long hours . “ We never had dinner with my father , ” Gilden recalls . “ The wholesale business was a tough business . ” Gilden ’s real “ job ” was to go to school , and he excelled in biology , chemistry , and math . Classes in foreign language , however , barely held his interest . “ For me the language of medicine was all I ever cared about , ” he says . He graduated from Dartmouth College in 1959 , and moved back home to go to medical school . Gilden interned at the University of Illinois Hospital in Chicago , and did his residency in neurology at the University of Chicago Hospitals . It was in the late 1960s while he was a staff neurologist in the [START_ENT] US Army [END_ENT] at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington , DC , that he became interested in research . After seeing patients during the day , he had time to catch his breath in the evening and mull over the amazing research underway . Researchers had discovered that measles virus in the brain could cause chronic encephalitis , and that Jakob-Creutzfeld disease -- a “ degenerative ” brain disorder in humans -- was infectious . “ I said to my wife , ‘ I think I want to do a fellowship in infectious diseases , ’” recalls Gilden , who was 32 at the time . “ She looked at me like she married a crazy man . ” He was accepted at the Johns Hopkins University School of Hygiene and Public Health as a postdoctoral National Institutes of Health fellow . After about three years , he joined the faculty at University of Pennsylvania and set up a lab at the Wistar Institute in Philadelphia to find the virus that causes MS . He worked closely with MS patients who lived in a chronic care facility and were ravaged by the disease . Gilden asked if they would donate their brains after death to his research because he was looking for the cause of MS . Sometimes his phone rang in the middle of the night and within an hour Gilden was harvesting brain from their skulls . “ I had my own saw , ” he says . He studied 24 brains over eight years , but never found the MS virus . So , he turned his attention to varicella zoster virus , which causes chickenpox in children and shingles in adults . Nobody had ever isolated the virus , and if he could prove it was there he believed he could use the same technique to find the MS virus . He tore into his work mapping the viral genome in human ganglia along the entire nervous system . In 1983 , he proved for the first time that the virus was latent in ganglia and “ reawakens ” causing shingles . The shingles virus causes pain and even stroke if it makes its way to the brain . Gilden found several other diseases caused by the virus , such as zoster sine herpete , or shingles without the rash . His discoveries led to more work for his team . Gilden left the University of Pennsylvania in 1985 to become professor and chairman of the department of neurology at the University of Colorado School of Medicine and professor of microbiology . At the University of Colorado , 15 members of Gilden ’s team are working on varicella zoster virus and MS . They harvest ganglia collected from an autopsy room . “ We go there every day , ” Gilden says . “ If it is a good case we will go as far as we have to . We even get specimens from Japan . ” MS has been a hard case to crack , but Gilden seems to be making progress . The common theory is that MS is autoimmune . The body ’s immune response attacks a protein that is normally in the brain . The attack is so violent and persistent that the brain is destroyed in the process . “ We do n’t think that is the case at all , ” Gilden says . “ Even now we have evidence that it is not autoimmune . ” He argues that in people with MS who have increased amounts of an antibody called immunoglobulin G ( IgG ) , in their brain and spinal fluid , the IgG is directed against an infectious agent , but nobody is quite sure at what agent it is directed . He and his team are looking for footprints of virus in MS . “ We are writing a paper showing that the immune response in MS is not against a self ( auto ) protein , ” he says . While he is busy with his research , Gilden , who is married and has three adult sons , skis and plays the violin -- a 1779 Guadagnini . He is also quick to tell a joke . Gilden would like to find out what causes MS and how to prevent varicella zoster virus from reactivating . He is unfazed by the fact that his research into MS

The Medical Leader » Eastern KY counties developing multi-county trail system The Medical Leader Home Home > Community News , Uncategorized > Eastern KY counties developing multi-county trail system Eastern KY counties developing multi-county trail system November 18th , 2011 ECO ECONOMY : Eastern Kentucky communities are joining forces to develop a trail system through several counties . Neighboring West Virginia communities are already seeing benefits from development of the Hatfield and McCoy Trail System , which attracts thousands of tourists and generates millions in revenue each year . This photo was taken during the 2011 Trailfest in Gilbert , W.Va . PIKEVILLE -- Counties throughout eastern Kentucky plan to boost the economy by developing and promoting adventure tourism activities . Big Sandy Area Development Director Sandy Runyon , who has worked with local leaders to establish trail systems in eastern Kentucky for a number of years , reports that officials in Breathitt , Clay , Knott , Leslie , Bell , Letcher , Perry , Owsley and Harlan counties have worked together for quite some time to develop a trail system that would attract ATV riders , horse enthusiasts , hikers and others into eastern Kentucky . Runyon explained that those counties have entered into an interlocal agreement regarding the trail system , with the understanding that each county is responsible for trail development and maintenance in their counties . Officials in these counties also agree that counties would assist each other with maintenance or other issues on neighboring properties , with the understanding that counties wo n't be billed for that service and with goal of eventually connecting all trails together in one large system . The Pike County Fiscal Court is the first of several Big Sandy area counties to become a part of the initiative by passing a resolution to join the multi-county effort during a Nov. 1 meeting . Although Pike county officials talked about developing a trail system to mimic the successful Hatfield-McCoy ATV Trail system in West Virginia , Runyon believes the interlocal agreement , once it is finalized , will encompass all types of trails and trail-based activities . The first step is for Fiscal Courts in those counties to pass a resolution stating the county 's intent on participating . Thereafter , county attorneys will hash out a finalized interlocal agreement that suits the needs of all counties . The Big Sandy ADD is currently preparing resolutions for other [START_ENT] Big Sandy [END_ENT] counties . “ I 'm not sure how many counties will sign on , ” Runyon said . “ But we know that Pike , Floyd , Magoffin and Martin counties are interested and we expect that Johnson County will also be interested . Our goal is to have any kind of agreement they enter into to include all trails . ” Once the interlocal agreement between the counties is finalized , Runyon said it is likely that individual counties will be responsible for obtaining land-use permits from residents , which could be a “ huge endeavor ” in counties like Pike County , where officials have identified 200 property owners along one potential trail route . Runyon said the biggest issue in connecting eastern Kentucky trails is the liability that property owners face when they allow the public to come onto their property . There has been some effort at the state level to pass legislation to ease the property liability burden , but the state 's tort law , allowing people to sue for various reasons , may prevent further success of that effort . One bill passed the House last year , but it died without a vote in the Senate . Runyon said the laws enacted by the legislature show progress . “ I do think there is a way around all of this if everybody can work together , and they truly do work together , and try to add all the needs of everybody involved , ” she said . “ I think we can make some progress . ” Areas like Harlan , Bell , Knott Leslie and Knott counties found ways around the liability issues and are able to market trails and host large-scale trail events because a large corporate landowner or private landowners with large , usable tracks of property provided a long-term lease to the county . “ Bell County is the new kid on the block , ” Runyon said . “ There was a company there that leased 7,600 acres to the county . They held an ATV event there three weeks ago that attracted 3,000 riders . So , it 's possible to do this . ” Runyon said the local residents contacted by the Big Sandy ADD have reported that they are excited about the potential . “ The only resistance we see is the unknown , ” she said . “ If every county develops a block of property and show the locals that it will work , that people will come in here to ride these trails and there is economic benefit to that , then I think local landowners will want to get involved . ” She is asking all counties to assess properties that might be available for trail development . The multi-county coalition will make the region more eligible to receive multi-county coal severance tax funds and grant funding for trail development projects , Runyon explained . “ We truly believe here that tourism will be an economic development engine , ” Runyon said . “ It wo n't be the only engine , but it will be a major economic tool for this region . ” Share and Enjoy : Author : admin Categories : Community News , Uncategorized Tags : Comments are closed .

[ If you do n't know your ascendant , go to www.star4cast.com FREE Birth Charts and it will calculate it for you . ] Take time to work out what happened to you personally 18.5 years ago , or 37 . The two major domestic/country moves in my life took place exactly that distance apart in the years of eclipses in the same cycle . And I only worked that one out after the decision was taken . This approaching December solar eclipse in Sagittarius will obviously have more effect on Sagittarian Sun or Ascendant types , who are at a real turning point in their lives . Geminis are looking closely at relationships . The other mutable signs , Virgo and Pisces are focusing on home and work matters . Taurus and Scorpio are money-minded ; Capricorn and Cancer have work and health dilemmas ; Leo and Aquarius are trying to balance love and friendships ; Aries and Libra are grappling with nitty gritty communication and organisational matters . More details below . This eclipse cycle wo n't recur until 2020 , so this is your chance to take the initiative , ask yourself fundamental questions about what you really want to do with this area of your life , and then make the radical decisions necessary . The few days before and after an eclipse are usually fraught , highly strung , rather nervy , with few ( except astrology followers ) understanding why everyone is so on edge . The eclipse effect carries a major theme for the following six months and will be felt for a few weeks in advance , so there 's no sense in delaying until December 4th . Get your thinking cap on . In primitive days , the ancients ' view of eclipses was that the darkening of the Sun was a portent of doom , putting them at the mercy of the fates . But these were highly superstitious people , with no sense of control of their lives . Eclipses can provoke crises , bringing unwanted upheavals , but nowadays you can chose your attitude and your strategy . Some world leaders have lives which seem eerily to follow eclipses : Nelson Mandela was imprisoned , released and became President on the exact week of eclipses . [START_ENT] Saddam Hussein [END_ENT] launched and then lost the Gulf War on an extraordinary series of eclipse driven events . He gathered his troops on the borders of Kuwait on the lunar eclipse in late July 1990 , two weeks before the solar eclipse on which date the UN mandate to oppose him was agreed . In the following January on the next Solar eclipse , the Gulf War was launched . Princess Diana died one day before a solar eclipse conjunct the potent , furiously angry Mars Pluto conjunction in Virgo in her chart.The previous eclipse in the same series 18.5 years before fell within days of the assassination of the Earl of Mountbatten , Prince Charles ' uncle . John F. Kennedy Jnr was killed in a plane crash days before the major 1999 solar eclipse , which was the same cycle as oversaw the death of his stillborn baby brother and indeed the assassination of his father , two cycles before . For those of us not caught up in world events , the effects are likely to be much less dramatic or tragic , but they are significant if you really want to grow and develop as a human being . This December Solar Eclipse is in a tricky Saros Cycle , usually accompanying a mood of high frustration , intense emotional reactions and a sense of being stuck with circumstances or relationship matters , seemingly beyond personal control . To add to the general feeling of angst , power-hungry Pluto is close to the eclipse , and the dreary Saturn opposition comes a few days later , though admittedly optimistic Jupiter in Leo is trying to add a dash of good luck as well from a trine . Bernadette Brady in The Eagle and the Lark remarks that rash action is inadvisable . GW Bush might do well to pay heed . For most of us these are tough times , with anchors dragging , and generally a sense that life is quite a struggle . Roll on the end of the Saturn Pluto opposition mid 2003 , and bring on the joyous eclipses of next year . So it 's grit your teeth and make the best of it for now . Here 's how : Sun and Ascendant Sign : SAGITTARIUS : An eclipse in your own sign says you are at a crossroads and must chose your path for the next few years . Decisions need to be pondered because there will be no backtracking . Make up your mind , get committed and then get moving . If you look the other way and ignore the eclipse effect , then a crisis in the next few months will force you to see where you have been over compromising . Be independent , do n't rely on others for advice , let alone be diverted onto your partner 's agenda . It ai n't easy , but you do have choices . GEMINI : Close emotional and work partnerships and your whole attitude to sharing , caring and relating are under the microscope . You must move into a more co-operative frame of mind , tolerant , flexible and willing to compromise . As an independent , restless air sign , none of this comes naturally . Old relationships may be under strain and on the point of parting company . Do they really suit your needs ? Only you know the answer . Strong bonds will weather the storms . New relationships will come as you clear the decks of psychological debris from the past . VIRGO : At an outer level , ensuring you have a solid , secure home and domestic base where you can put down roots is your cri de Coeur . At an inner level you are moving away from old ways of relating and refusing to be trapped by family members or loved ones who want you to stay exactly where and as you are . Pushed and pulled by opposing demands from heavy work responsibilities and emotional pressures , you need to put your own needs first . When your dilemma threatens to get on top of you , go dig the garden , walk in nature , or have a Californian massage . Getting in touch with earth energy will help . PISCES : Is a career crisis looming ? Maybe it 's a hint from the universe that you are heading in the wrong direction and trying to fit your talents into the wrong box . You know you want to make your mark on the world , and have your achievements recognised , but you have to be fulfilling what truly feels like a vocation for that to happen . With Pluto around , you will also be questioning your attitude to power figures and who holds the control . Maybe you ca n't be the megalomaniac you 'd like , but you need to ensure that no one else is pulling your strings at work either . Push family responsibilities into their proper place and focus on your ambitions . TAURUS : Two things are dear to your heart -- one is money and the other is power ( OK and sex is in there somewhere as well ) . Your sense of security may be shaken because circumstances seemingly outside your control seem to be posing a threat to your power and prosperity base . This solar eclipse falling in the deepest , most hidden area of your chart suggests you need to get right down to rock bottom to find fundamental answers to your present sticky situation . As a fixed sign you expect the world and other people to adapt to you , rather than the other way round . This eclipse says you need to share , care , co-operate and relate in a profoundly different way in future if you are to improve joint finances and spark up your sex life in the months to come -- and avoid a crisis . Hanging on for too much control , could backfire . Trust the universe and go with the flow . SCORPIO : Money is on your mind , not joint finances as with Taurus , but your own personal piggy-bank . In the face of ungenerous influences , you know you need to take a major initiative to shake up your finances to bring prosperity in the coming months . Luckily your formidable stamina will stand you in good stead , and Jupiter also helps at your mid-heaven , bringing a hint of career success . But you ca n't afford to dither around , praying for a lottery win or a long-lost relative to leave you a fortune . Get real , get thinking , and then get working . CAPRICORN : A hidden eclipse in the sign before yours sparks up psychological tensions , uncomfortable echoes of unresolved issues from the past and a general feeling of stuck-ness . If you can see the awkward events happening around you as useful pointers , reflections of what is going on at an inner level , then you can make real use of this eclipse . Not naturally an inward-looking sign , you may need to force yourself to ask the probing questions that will bring profound answers . Do n't be put off by imagining you will find all manner of horrors . On the contrary you will find you are a richer , stronger personality than you could have imagined . Your unlived emotions tend to put extra strain on your body , so be good to yourself physically by reaching for a deeper self-understanding . CANCER : Sagittarius is your area for work and health . You will be facing a dilemma about how to regenerate your career , improve your working conditions and build up your general health . The likelihood with Pluto in place is that you will be meeting resistance in your efforts , but do n't let that put you off . Pluto can produce solidly substantial results , but it usually takes a struggle and strong determination . Do n't meet unco-operative workmates head on in a stalemate battle . Duck and dive a little . Aim for influence , not outright control . Realise also you have to let go certain old ambitions which have lost their fire . Physically you need to pay better attention to your body 's needs , get even minor ailments fixed , and then you will sail ahead in robust form . LEO : Love may be on your mind , but it may not be what you are attracting . This eclipse will make you aware of where you are not getting the affection , admiration and adoration you want from loved ones , children or even social mates . Tricky , I know , to be exuberant and utterly seductive with the wet-blanket Saturn-Pluto around . But this is your challenge . You need to allow your personality to shine brightly , to step out without apology or doubt , to be where you feel fulfilled which is centre stage . Two thoughts : one is that what you lack , you must first give . Have you been too meagre in handing out kisses , cuddles and compliments ? Go to it . The second is that Pluto tends to make you clutch if you feel you are not getting attention . Let go . If you cage loved ones in , they will struggle to break free . AQUARIUS : Always known as the humanitarian sign , this could be your chance to make a real difference to the society or world in which you live . Certainly you know you need to widen your circle of friends and acquaintances in the months , if not years to come , but do n't keep stick to a frivolous , exclusively social agenda . You could join hands with influential movers and shakers to have a powerful influence on what is going on around you . You also know you need to nudge yourself into setting long term goals . Do n't just think five year plan , think 20 year plan . It does n't have to be set in concrete , you can adapt as you go along , but you will be better with a broad strategy and well defined goals . ARIES : Travel , communication , improving your mind -- all of these are sparked off by this eclipse , which is generally prompting you to broaden your horizons in whichever you can . Set your sights higher . Let your imagination soar . Think big , do n't get bogged down in trivia . Saturn Pluto is hardly an exciting or inspirational overlay , but nonetheless this is your challenge . You need to spread your ideas to a wider audience , find more intellectual stimulation and see where you can get yourself out of a rut . LIBRA : Sorting out your everyday schedule may not sound like a bundle of fun , but if you do n't get a grip of minutiae , details and organization , then your life will lack a solid , realistic base . Think about how you communicate . Are you being misunderstood at work ? Collect your thoughts first , speak simply and then double check to make sure your message got across . It may not be the content that 's at fault , more the delivery.Start each day with a checklist and you wo n't race round in circles getting in a muddle . Think small for a few months , then you will fly the higher come next May . Marjorie 's new book The Astrological History of the World ( Sterling Publications ; ISBN

Blue 's News MailBag Mailbag May 2,1999 -- Previous Mailbag Letters are edited for spelling errors only , and may contain profanity . Commentary by Jason " loonyboi " Bergman . Hey id ... you suck ! From : James Fitzgerald Subject : Suggestion So here 's the deal . You rag on Unreal 's no show as far as a release goes , and less than 12 hours later , they put out a release . Any chance you could rag on id about Q3Test for the windows platform ? :-) - JamesF . Do n't say we did n't try ... Just chill , homies . From : Rob Ellner Subject : Q3 Q3 on the Mac first , eh ? Heh . I 'm a PC owner looking forward to Q3 as much as the next obsessive gaming nut . But it is kinda funny ai n't it . I nearly coughed up a lung when everyone started trying to download the Mac emulator . That is pure comedy . Nothing less . People should chill out about this mac first deal . How can any PC owner claim foul when the last game to come out on the Mac first was Marathon . And welcome to it they were . Did n't see the PC population crying over that . HackMesser I laughed my head off as well ... I own ARDI , and I found it very hard to believe that software that emulates a 25 MHz 68040 could actually run software designed for a G3 . It does , however run Marathon really well . :) Deep thoughts . From : sikander iqbal Subject : Q3A and Bill Gates Okay , if Bill Gates had a son who loved QUAKE as much as I do , would he let him go out and buy a MAC just for playing the Q3Test ?? The secret 's out ! From : Michiel Rutting Subject : You sold out to Mac ! We have proof now ! Hi , Did you notice this in Graeme 's . plan too ? Hard proof has arrived ! -- Start Quote When running in 32-bit color depth , lighting effects ( such as from a weapon firing ) cause the affected textures to temporarily turn to garbage . ( System : Blue tower G3 ) -- End Quote No use denying it now , you sold out :) And now your Mac gives you errors ! LOL ! Heh , this one is too good . Greetz , Nucleus aka Michiel Rutting Actually , that 's somewhat inaccurate . The " Blue " tower , is actually " bondi blue " . On the happy occasion ... From : Randy Taylor Subject : Congratulations ! Hi Blue ! Congratulations on your wedding anniversary . I was shocked that you hav n't taken a day off in three years . I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate your page . I have hit it almost every day for two years now . I have one word of advice ; try to take at least one day off a week . I am in the military and take 30 days off a year . I think I would go crazy if I did n't have that time . Thanks for keeping up one of the best gaming sights on the net , and do n't forget to take care of yourself ! - Randy Taylor B-1B Crew Chief USAF Carmack does what ? From : John Nevaquaya Subject : re : Whose bitch ? Well , I guess if we had to be someone 's bitch , it would have to be Carmack 's instead of Romero 's - at least Carmack puts out . Andrew Smith strikes again ... From : Mr. Fix It Subject : Andrew Smith can suck my boomstick As you may have already guessed , this E-mail is a response to the pile of bull shit Andrew Smith sent in last week . Andrew Smith is a complete idiot !! Hey Andrew , if you have to put " I have no evidence to prove this , but it 's true , and anyone who denies it is wrong . " after everything you say , then what your saying is most likely false or an opinion . Keep your god damned misinformation to your dumbfuck self ! For the record : 1 . I play violent computer games , which I know for a _ FACT _ have not made me violent . 2 . I watch violent films , which I know for a _ FACT _ have not made me violent . 3 . I have access to information about making bombs , which I know for a _ FACT _ has not made me want to blow things up . I already wanted to blow things up before I had access to that crap . 4 . I am in high school where I have not killed any of my classmates because I play violent video games and watch violent movies . ( or for any other reason , for that mater . ) Some people may think that these _ FACTS _ make me biased . Perhaps I am , but that does n't make that Andrew Smith any smarter . People like him make me want to kill someone :-) . But seriously , they drive me insane ! Those irritating right-wing religious crackpots , moronic Republicans , and other idiots are always pushing shit like this at us . If you are a member of one of the aforementioned groups and you disagree with me , suck my boomstick !!!! I 'm sick and tired of flipping on the ol' boob toob and hearing video games , TV , and movies getting blamed for things like the tradgedy in Littleton . Jesus Christ people !!! I know this has been said before , but it was an excellent point : THE MEDIA IS NOT HERE TO BABYSIT THE YOUTH OF AMERICA !!!!!!!!! If you look at all of these absolutely horrible tradgedies , you will most likely see that the parents of killers either raised there kids in a terrible environment or they were hardly ever around . How the hell does a kid make multiple bombs without his parents noticing ? His parents not paying any attention to anything he does , that 's how !!! Parents are here to police their kids before they are able to police themselves . They sure make sure that their son or daughter understands that violence hurts and that what happens in most movies and video games is n't real . More and more of these tragedies will occur until the parents of America start doing their job : to raise there children up sane and with a healthy sense of reality . Man stuff like this pisses me off . Well , back to my homework ... - Mr. Fix It PS Feel free to edit the swearing in my letter . I really want my feelings on this heard . Thanks . From : Troy > < > Fisher Subject : Re : Andrew Smith : school shootings Your unsubstantiated comments provide a very good point . However , the substantiation that games do not cause violence comes from doing some homework on the following : How many copies of first-person shooters have been sold , starting with Wolf3D and going all the way up to Starseige or whatever is the latest . Now figure out how many of the owners of these copies went on to shoot kids in their school ( or elsewhere ) . I think you 'll find a large discrepancy if you can even come up with the numbers . QED More on Mac emulation ... From : Burt H. Subject : Q3Test and Mac Emulation Regarding and quoting from BluesNews ... An incorrect rumor on the net listed Executor as running Q3Test , the test-version of Quake 3 that was made available for the Macintosh before Linux and Windows . Our site has been swamped as people try to download our demo to test this . Q3Test requires a PowerPC , and Executor does not currently run any Mac applications that require a PowerPC . I have to say , I 'm not better than the next guy on this planet , but there are a few things I see , most of the time , from a more distant perspective . I 'm certainly not going to do Carmack and injustice and compare him to Mr. Gate $ , but have you noticed something amazing ? Bill Gates has people flocking to OS 's , Apps , and many other things , normally because it 's ' easier ' , or someone does n't know they have a choice . John Carmack on the other hand is so powerful that he can cause half of the internet community ( those that that do n't have MacOS ) to flock to something they typically badmouth , just to try out his software. :) You go boy !! * grin * LugNut PS I think he should do donuts on Gate 's lawn with that Sports car ; > ) They 're all gon na laugh at you ! From : dino bigliazzi Subject : Prey ? <hee hee> Is it just me , or does anyone else out there giggle uncontrollably everytime they hear Prey mentioned . Let 's try it ... " Prey " <hee hee> Comments , abusive email , movie deals , etc. are welcome . jazz.bone@mailcity.com I got yer legislation right here ... From : Jason Rushton Subject : Major Minor Legislation Non-Gamers just do n't understand games . Especially , I have to say , older people ( ie congressmen , reporters ) . So they think by not letting people under 18 buy games they 'll solve the worlds problems . But what about demos ? What about the ever-present warez copies ? What about the store clerks that do n't give a damn ? Is it going to be like buying cigarettes , or alcohol ? If you under 26 you have to have an id , ca n't sell it within 1000 yards of a school or church ? If a parent buys it for thier kid ... is that contributing to the delinquency of a minor ? Maybe a better idea would be to not let anyone under 18 watch the news ! I 've been a game since the [START_ENT] DOOM [END_ENT] days ... and the images that show up on the news everyday still make me sick , shock me , and otherwise " gross me out " . People just do n't understand ... I think it was a quote on Blue 's , or Loony 's , but it said something to the effect of most gamers are too afraid to even go outside let alone open fire on a crowd of people . And that B.S. about them losing touch with reality ... did n't know they were n't playing a game . Every game out there has a teamplay mode where you are n't supposed to kill teammates ... are n't all humans essentially teammates at the very least . Well , that 's enough of my late night ranting ... if it sounds weird that 's cuz it 's 5 in the morning ... But I 'm sick and tired of people blaming everyone else for everything they do wrong . No one will accept the blame anymore . If they really have to blame someone else for what kids are doing wrong then blame the parents , blame the education system , blame the pressures of society ... just leave us gamers to our vegetating . Jason " FoOeY " Rushton You make a good point ... most hard-core gamers are serious agoraphobiacs . The concept of sunlight scares them more than anything . :) Still more on the Colorado incident ... From : James Hendrick Subject : The Doomworld editorial Dear Mailbag , I 'm not going to spend much in time or length at this , because nobody ever reads the long letters , and besides Frasier comes on in twenty minutes . But I 've got to say something , to make some opposition , because the integrity of the gaming community is being defended by a prominent editorial that would better have served us had it never been written at all . The editorial , by Dukrous of Doomworld.com , was made reference to by an article on CNN , as reported on Blue 's today ( the 28th ) . Suffice it to say that this editorial has not gone unnoticed . I was personally very curious to see what Doomworld had to say about the Columbine shootings , since the Doom community is under very close scrutiny right now for reasons that do n't need to be reviewed . So I read this editorial and was severely disappointed . Instead of an intelligent , mature , receptive response , the author has published a quasi-intellectual treatise that attempts to guild youthful conviction and self-importance in what was probably intended to be an impressive display of philosophical rigor and noble uprightness . It fails . Debunking his reasoning is busy work , labor not worth its me . What disappoints me so greatly in this editorial are not its oversights , gross generalizations , leaps of logic , and innumerable contradictions , but its outright ignorance : the absence of consideration in the author 's commanding tone , the sense of smug triumph that he conveys with every ludicrous conclusion . He would be at fault for this regardless of the merit of his ideas . And he is definitely to be faulted for making the horror at Columbine into a platform on which to parade his intellect and character . " Peace can not be kept by force . It can only be achieved by understanding . " What is needed is not increased regulation , vigilance , and inquisition . These are short-sighted answers . What we are lacking is understanding . Sincerely , James Hendrick also an avid gamer , aka Mr. White and Mr. Wizard From : Robert J. Denchy Subject : Shootings and " experts " with no clue Blue / Loonyboi , I happened to turn on the TV last night and catch a part of an interview last night . I think it was on 20/20 . I only watched about two minutes of it before I turned off the TV . They had some military " expert " talking about the shooting of the kids as they were coming out of a bible study . ( Not the most recent shooting . ) He was explaining how it was obvious that the games the kid played gave him the skills to kill his classmates . This expert obviously looked for ways to prove his points rather than looking at the situation objectively . Otherwise , he would have seen that his points actually prove the game did NOT provide the " skills " used . His Point : It was amazing that the kid scored 5 out of 8 shots . This shows an incredible aptitude above that of experts that are trained to shoot . For example , in a recent shooting , four trained policemen were in a shoot-out and only 19 of 43 shots were good . Although there were multiple people in the classroom it was a large room . My Point : Apples and Oranges . It 's too bad that most people will take this at face value . Shooting at unarmed people that are not hiding under behind cover is a completely different situation than when someone is shooting back at you . Shooting at one or two people is not the same as shooting at 40 people . I do n't care how big the room was , the kids were grouped together in a contained area . And shooting at one person still meant that others were likely to be hit if the shot missed the intended target . The expert may argue this but then he is probably the type of fool that would try to take out an armed terrorist surrounded by 30 hostages . In the real world the good guys wo n't shoot because the chance of hitting someone other than the person they are aiming at is too high . His Point : He shot once at each target which is the way the games teach people to shoot . Shoot one target and quickly move on to the next . This goes against what a trained person would do ; trained people shoot until the target goes down . My Point : The kid was not trained ! He did exactly what makes sense for someone attempting to create as much damage to as many people as possible . He did n't care if he killed his target or not . People that are trained are trained to take out their target who is a danger to them . These " targets " were NOT a threat . Finally , one of the most common death match rules is to STAY ON TARGET . Why ? Because , your targets are threats to you . If you divide your fire between multiple targets you are likely to kill none of them . This in turn means there is more fire being directed at you . Further more , for all we know , he WAS shooting at the same target . He could have missed with ever shot and only managed to hit the people around his intended target ( s ) . His Point : He shot at the head because the games award head shots . My Point : Gee , which game is that ? Some games award more points or more damage for head shots but not games like Doom , Quake , Quake II , etc. . In fact , it is only the most recent crop of games that award points for head shots . In general , the games actually teach the same thing that a defense course would teach , shoot at the point where you are most likely to hit ... center of mass . Anyway , the point is that this " expert " is nothing of the sort . He has made poor arguments that , when looked at logically , actually prove that the games did not train this kid ... He has made assumption and taken them as facts and then tried to make the circumstances match those " facts " . This kid acted contrary to the best tactics for FPS games . This kid did what makes sense for someone who is looking to harm as many people as possible . As a side note , the government and people with no clue are once again trying to use these shootings as a way to increase gun control . Why do we need more gun control when the current laws are not being enforced . After all , it is illegal for a minor ( under 18 ) to purchase a weapon . It is illegal for anyone under 21 to purchase a handgun . It is illegal to have guns on school property ( Believe the law states something like guns are not allowed within 500 yards of a school ) . - Palandar . rjdenchy@flash.net From : Alex Brown Subject : Jocks vs Geeks ? Dear Blue 's News , I know that a lot of folks who write in to you are termed " geeks " and they all seem to express a deep resentment of their more " popular " peers . I want to let everyone know that there are other shades of grey . In high school I was a Jock . However I wasnt the greatest one in the world . Guess what else I did ? Surf the Internet , play games like Doom , and yes , I did well in school . So what we have here is someone - mainly myself , who was a geek and a jock hybrid . I was more popular than people who were just normal kids who didnt belong to clubs , yet I was not as popular as some of the more exceptional athletes and their click . I am aghast to see that there are so many people who are on the far ends of the spectrum . Is that the reality ? Or is that the only group who is being allowed to have their voices heard because of the resentment of the " popular " in the computer community ? Is there no middle ground ? Are any of these opposing sides taking steps to understand each other ? I believe that there needs to be more effort between people to understand each other . It seems like we have a social " race war " going on , and just like society needed/needs to come to terms with ethnic and race differences , we need to come to terms with social ones . I agree completely with you , but there 's a problem here ... you and I are both out of high school . When I was in high school ( shudder ) I thought of things in those same strange terms ... there were " jocks " and " geeks " and well , then there was me . :) My point is this : we can talk rationally about this now because it 's behind us . But for kids who are still in high school , it 's a different story entirely . And it 's not something easily solved , either . Now here 's some logic I agree with ... From : Jim Beasley Subject : Whats really behind the Littleton Tragedy ... I 'm sick of hearing that computer games were somehow responsible for the terrible tragedy in Littleton

Updated Figures Show Much Greater U.S. Wind Power Potential Follow Matter Network Facebook Twitter Newsletter LinkedIn News and ideas for a sustainable world Search Building Computing CSR Energy Gadgets Investing Jobs Smart Grid TransportationTravel ADVERTISEMENT Books that Matter Bloom Energy : Should You Believe the Hype ? Golf Club Recycles Water to Irrigate Greens » Energy | February 22 , 2010 | by SustainableBusiness.com Updated Figures Show Much Greater U.S. Wind Power Potential New figures from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory show that US wind resources are significantly greater than previously estimated . Onshore US wind resources could generate nearly 37,000,000 gigawatt-hours ( GWh ) annually , more than nine times current total US electricity consumption , according to analysis by the American Wind Energy Association ( AWEA ) . The previous national government survey of US wind resources , carried out by the Pacific Northwest Laboratory , estimated US wind potential at 10,777,000 GWh . Put another way , the potential capacity of [START_ENT] America [END_ENT] ’s onshore wind resource is over 10,000 gigawatts ( GW ) . The US is barely tapping this vast resource : current wind installed capacity is 35 GW in the US and 158 GW world-wide . These larger estimates are due to improved wind turbine technology , as today ’s taller turbines tap better winds at higher elevations ( this study measured winds at 80 meters ) , and to more refined wind measurements . The new figures ranked the following states as the ten windiest , Texas , Kansas , Montana , Nebraska , South Dakota , North Dakota , Iowa , Wyoming , Oklahoma , New Mexico . Indiana , Ohio and Oregon moved up into the list of the top 20 windiest states . In a single year , the US wind resource potential could produce 364.9 quadrillion btus , the energy equivalent of all proven oil and natural gas reserves in the US as estimated by the Energy Information Administration ( EIA ) . And , of course , as a renewable resource , wind will not be depleted and will continue to provide energy year after year . " This new analysis confirms that America is blessed with vast wind resources that can energize our economy , create jobs , and avoid carbon for years to come -- if we give ourselves the policy tools to do so , including a strong national Renewable Electricity Standard with aggressive , binding near - and long-term targets . " AWEA CEO Denise Bode said in a release . " The wind resource is there , vast and inexhaustible , waiting for us . Meanwhile , the economy ca n’t wait , job creation ca n’t wait , and America ca n’t wait . We need Congress to act now and pass a comprehensive climate and energy bill that includes a strong national Renewable Electricity Standard

If Repair is in your deck , use it and it will take away the panels that move you up and down . Blocking FishysWhenever you fight a Fishy ( V1 V2 or V3 ) , use a chip that sets up an obstacle ( Remobit , Guardian , etc. ) and put it in front of you .

From the center building , go down the flight of stairs and look closely at the screen . You should see a blur every few seconds . Walk up and talk to it . A little girl will say , " You found it ! You take it " . You will receive the Geddon3 chip . After acquiring the Geddon3 chip , put it in your folder with a Repair Chip ( preferably a * code chip ) .

SSS license Set either an Invis chip with a * code as your default chip , and make sure you have the chip ZeusHamr . In most of the battles , this will kill all the enemies . It can break through Guard ; it even works on Hardheads . Note : Make sure that if there is a Cloudy or a Flappy that you do not use ZeusHamr until after they land or else it will not hit them . Getting free Navi chips You can get Navi chips in the slot in Netopia near the Hotel and Bank . Choose ten chips in the slot and get a new Navi chip back free . Sometimes you can even get Version 2 Chips . Note : A Navi chip does not appear every time . Defeat Freezeman , then go to ACDCtown . There will be a chip trader by the posters . You will get all the Navi chips except Bass and a few other that you can get only in the WWW area . Black Navi locations Black Navi 1 : Underkoto Black Navi 2 : Undernet area 6 Black Navi 3 : Netarea 2 Black Navi 4 : Yumland area 2 Easy S-busting level A very good way to get an S busting level is to use Advances . It seems necessary for some Bosses such as Bass . Some good ones are : Life Srd 3 ( line up Elec , Heat , and aqua Blades . Buy them or get them from Green Mystery Data in WWW area 1 ) ; Arrows ( Double , Triple , and Quad Needle ) ; and Ultra bomb ( Lil , Cros , and Big Bombs ) . SS licenseAfter you get the S license , " Delete Gospel " , and " Star ID " , go through the Undernet to where the laser grid with the " ? " on it was located . Check it and it will open . The portal will then take you directly to the WWW area 1 . Go through with your S license in hand , but be careful . Once you are inside the WWW you can not jack out . Once through , you will see many new enemies and some are very difficult to kill . Just run from or kill them and use Full-Enrgs . Go as far as you can through WWW in area 1 . Do not go into area 2 , no matter what . You will find a cube requiring an S license to open . There are still more obstacles , Before going through the portal there , you will encounter three Protecto1s . To delete these you will have to do 200 damage to all of them at once . Once they are gone , go through the portal and unlock the " Mystery Data " . It is army data . Jack out at this point and save the game . Jack back in again and go to the License Examiner . You can now take the test . Extra Damage from Airman Chip Go to the front and if an enemy is in the front rank also , use the Airman chip to do double the damage . Gamecube logoAfter defeating Shadowman , reenter the main mother computer . Go to the back of the computer . Stand in front of the " mother computer main server " , where Shadowman was standing before you fought him . Slowly go to [START_ENT] Megaman [END_ENT] 's right .

Go to Undernet 5 . There will be three mystery program data . Use the Sub-chip Untrap and walk up to one of the mystery data . Unlock it . It will more than likely say " You got 100 Zenny ! " .

But over time , the Companies Acts 1985 and 1989 have become convoluted and unwieldy to understand as successive amendments were made and changes emanating from Europe impacted on our domestic law . So the Companies Act 2006 is a consolidating piece of legislation which will codify and re-arrange existing regulation into a more readily understandable and comprehensive source of law whilst giving effect to new aspects of regulation as part of the government 's reform agenda . In broad terms , the Act is designed to promote shareholder engagement and a long-term investment culture as well as introduce new provisions for small companies , for example , making it easier to set up and run a company . But it also introduces new requirements around narrative and performance reporting for all but the smallest of companies 1 -- the subject of this review . Helpfully , in addition to codifying the requirements of the EU Accounts Modernisation Directive the Act ends much of the uncertainty following the withdrawal of the ‘ Operating and Financial Review ' ( OFR ) which was abruptly abandoned by the government in November 2005 . After the demise of the OFR , the government has re-affirmed its commitment to “ encouraging meaningful strategic , forward-looking information to assist shareholder engagement ” , but there are some notable differences between the narrative reporting provisions of the Act and the OFR it replaces . For instance , although auditors will continue to be required to report on the consistency of the Directors ' Report with the annual accounts ( as is required by the Accounts Modernisation Directive ) there will not be any additional requirement to check for other inconsistencies . Furthermore , all companies will be exempted from disclosing in the Business Review information which is seriously prejudicial to the company 's interests . This exemption was previously only provided for companies that had to produce an OFR ; and finally , there will be no statutory reporting standards for the Business Review . The former Accounting Standards Board ( ASB ) Standard ( RS1 ) has been relegated to the status of a statement of best practice . So , for example , the Act is much less prescriptive than RS1 about the information to be disclosed when reporting KPIs . One important change that may have gone unnoticed by many is that the requirements for narrative reporting have been streamlined so that the obligations for quoted companies are now more closely aligned to those for unquoted companies . The effect is that all companies ( other than small companies ) and not just quoted companies , will need to produce a Business Review as required by the EU Accounts Modernisation Directive , with the primary purpose of helping shareholders to assess how the directors have performed their duty to “ promote the success of the company ” . This white paper reviews the main provisions of the Business Review and explains the implications for performance systems and processes . Note 1 Companies normally fall into a size category if they meet two out of the three criteria Category Turnover ( not more than ) Balance sheet total ( not more than ) Number of employees ( not more than ) Small company # 5.6 million # 2.8 million 50 Medium company # 22.8 million # 11.4 million 250 Timing : The [START_ENT] Bill [END_ENT] was introduced to the House of Lords on 1 November 2005 and brought forward to the House of Commons on 24 May 2006 . The Bill completed the Commons Committee stage on 20 July 2006 and received the Royal Assent this Autumn . However , the requirement to produce a Business Review is a current legal obligation introduced into the Companies Act 1985 to implement the EU Accounts Modernisation Directive . So in practice , companies must continue to prepare and publish a directors ' report containing a business review for all financial years beginning on or after 1 April 2005 . THE DETAIL OF THE BUSINESS REVIEW Unless a company is subject to the small companies ' regime , the directors ' report must contain a Business Review . The purpose of the Business Review is to inform the members of the company and help them assess how the directors have performed their duty to promote the success of the company ( section 173 ) . s. 423 Contents of Business review Section 423 says that the Business Review must contain -- ( a ) a fair review of the company 's business , and ( b ) a description of the principal risks and uncertainties facing the company It is also required to be a balanced and comprehensive analysis of -- ( a ) the development and performance of the company 's business during the financial year , and ( b ) the position of the company 's business at the end of that year , consistent with the size and complexity of the business . In the case of a quoted company the Business Review must , to the extent necessary for an understanding of the development , performance or position of the company 's business , include -- ( a ) the main trends and factors likely to affect the future development , performance and position of the company 's business ; and ( b ) information about -- ( i ) environmental matters ( including the impact of the company 's business on the environment ) , ( ii ) the company 's employees , and ( iii ) social and community issues , including information about any policies of the company in relation to those matters and the effectiveness of those policies . If the review does not contain information of each kind mentioned in paragraph ( b ) ( i ) , ( ii ) and ( iii ) , it must state which of those kinds of information it does not contain . In addition , the review must , to the extent necessary for an understanding of the development , performance or position of the company 's business , include -- ( a ) analysis using financial key performance indicators , and ( b ) where appropriate , analysis using other key performance indicators , including information relating to environmental matters and employee matters . [ “ Key performance indicators ” means factors by reference to which the development , performance or position of the company 's business can be measured effectively . ] Where a company qualifies as small or medium-sized it does not have to produce key performance indicators in so far as they relate to non - financial information . ( The precise rules governing what qualifies as a medium sized company are contained in s474 but in general , a company is medium sized if it meets two of the following three criteria ; turnover not more than # 22.8 m , balance sheet total not more than # 11.4 m and number of employees not more than 250 ) . A significant change is that the Act gives directors a safe harbour from civil liability in respect of statements or omissions made in the Business Review . Liability will only attach to directors if such statements are untrue or misleading and are made in bad faith or recklessly or , in the case of an omission , there is dishonest concealment of material facts . THE CHALLENGES OF THE EBR So the Business Review , sometimes referred to as the Enhanced Business Review or EBR deals principally with mid-sized companies , large companies and listed entities registered in the UK . However it is worth noting that countries right across the European Community will be seeking to embody the requirements of the EU Accounts Modernisation Directive in similar domestic legislation . At first sight , the requirements of the EBR seem fairly innocuous and undemanding . Afterall , most companies should be able to produce a fair review of the company 's business , and its trading position at the end of that year . However , there are a number of matters of emphasis and disclosure that need to be considered carefully and could present significant systems and process challenges for companies that are ill-prepared . By and large , quoted companies should be in better shape to comply with the new legislation because the now defunct OFR acted as a ‘ dry run ' . Although the last minute withdrawal of the OFR was frustrating for some , its likely implementation forced listed companies to launch OFR projects to plan for appropriate systems and processes to be put in place . But an unfortunate side effect of the sudden demise of the OFR is that the ensuing debate masked the fact that all companies were going to have to produce a Business Review and as such , many non-listed companies are poorly prepared . Leading up to the new millennium , many organisations lavished spending on ERP and other transaction systems rather than management information systems which have a pivotal role to play in support of narrative reporting . As a result , management information processes and enabling technologies are fractured and information of the sort envisaged by the EBR is not uniformly easy to gather . Over reliance on spreadsheets , coupled with separate processes and systems , including but not limited to , statutory and management reporting , strategy setting , budgeting , forecasting and performance measurement means that data is duplicated and scattered widely throughout most organisations . As a result many companies will find aspects of the Act more challenging than perhaps legislators anticipated . An unhelpful aspect of the EBR is that commentators , the press and government refer to it as ‘ narrative reporting ' , which implies that it is a vague essay about performance . But as is so often the case , the devil is in the detail and close inspection of the Act 's requirement 's reveal that the areas covered are far reaching and extend into novel and unfamiliar territory such as environmental KPIs and forward looking statements . Furthermore , directors need to be mindful that there are penalties for reckless statements and although there are ‘ safe harbour ' provisions , it is important that the EBR is grounded in reliable and robust systems and processes so that directors can fulfil their obligations to report and , just as importantly , demonstrate that they have acted in good faith . The main challenges for companies in relation to performance systems and processes lie in the ; • need to satisfy the strategic purpose of the EBR • obligation to produce a “ balanced and comprehensive ” commentary • requirement to make forward looking statements • possible requirement to disclose KPIs , especially non-financial KPIs The strategic purpose of the EBR The main thrust of the EBR is to allow the ‘ members ' of the company to assess whether the directors have been successful in their legal duty to “ promote the success of the company ” -- in essence , whether the company has satisfactorily carried out its strategy . “ Success ” is very broadly defined and , amongst other matters , the directors must have regard for the interests of the company 's employees and the impact of the company 's operations on the community and the environment . The EBR must be “ balanced and comprehensive ” A balanced and comprehensive review suggests that underlying management information systems and processes should be capable of drawing together a wide range of information , gathered from multiple sources and that performance monitoring , measurement and reporting should capture good and bad performance i.e. balanced , throughout the reporting period , which now extends into the future ( see below ) . Forward looking statements The need for forward looking statements about likely performance in the future based on an analysis of “ trends and factors ” is a significant departure from existing company law which merely requires a review of historic performance . It will certainly require investment in appropriate planning , budgeting and forecasting systems . Disclosure of KPIs Most companies should have little difficulty preparing financial KPIs though management will need to judge which KPIs to disclose and ensure that they are consistently measured across the enterprise , since an EBR has to be produced for every company ( apart from small companies ) in the group . However , the requirement to produce non - financial KPIs , such as environmental or employee KPIs could be more stretching because of the need to decide the appropriate measures and draw on wider sources of information . THE IMPACT ON APPLICATIONS AND PROCESSESS Taking these matters together , it can be seen that the EBR draws on a very wide set of interrelated business applications and processes . Collectively , these related processes are referred to as “ Business Performance Management ” ( BPM ) . BPM is a ‘ closed loop ' process that commences with the preparation of a business strategy , the development of budgets and operational plans and then provides the means by which actual performance against plan can be measured , monitored and reported . In the fullness of time , the experience and insights gained from an analysis of performance and an understanding of the key trends and factors affecting it can be used to refine the strategy before the cycle starts all over again -- the closed loop . A typical performance management process Whilst the theory of BPM is well articulated in many organisations , there are often significant barriers to its implementation , such as an over-dependency on spreadsheets , the lack of suitable applications , enabling technologies and processes that bind them together . Strategy setting Perhaps the most under-served part of the BPM process is in the area of strategy setting and development . Given the pivotal role of strategy development for the conduct of the whole performance management cycle it is perhaps surprising that it is such a neglected process in so many organisations . Yet , it is often characterised by an un-auditable collection of standalone spreadsheets and documents which are not conducive to a strategically aligned organisation . The absence of suitable systems and process support in this vital area poses significant business risk to boards of directors seeking to demonstrate that they have “ promoted the success of the company ” . Clearly , it is management 's responsibility to develop a practical and realistic strategy for the organisation . However , technology has a vital role to play in ensuring that , the strategy is communicated throughout the organisation , that operational plans and performance measures are strategically aligned with it and that monitoring systems highlight management actions that need to be taken to keep the strategy on course . Therefore , in fulfilling the obligations of the EBR , there is a strong requirement for software tools which support the iterative process of strategy development and allow the outcome to be documented and revisited as appropriate . Planning , budgeting and forecasting Once developed , it is crucial that performance objectives are built into the operational plans and forecasts of the organisation . The forward looking orientation of the EBR makes it essential that boards consider the effect of current trends and factors on performance in the future . In order to meet this objective organisations require a budgeting and forecasting application that allows for frequent re-forecasting and can improve the analysis and business insights that can be obtained from the process . Modern web based planning applications encourage collaboration between budget holders , accelerate the re-forecasting process and through higher levels of participation can improve data quality and the frequency of re-forecasting . This latter point is important as the EBR requires directors to report in a “ balanced and comprehensive ” way throughout the period . The more frequently that organisations can re-forecast , the more likely it is that directors are acquainted with the trends and factors affecting performance . Scorecarding and dash-boarding However , if directors are to deliver success , it is vital that the strategy is communicated and understood throughout the organisation and that operational objectives and performance measures , which guide organisational behaviour , are strategically aligned . This is where scorecarding and dash-boarding applications come into play . They are designed to help companies articulate their strategy using KPIs , communicate strategy across the enterprise and link it to operational objectives and initiatives . Leveraging this technology , individual and departmental goals can be aligned with corporate goals and objectives thus ensuring accountability for delivering results throughout the organisation . Consolidation The EBR requires all of the strands of performance management to be brought together in a way that permits “ balanced and comprehensive ” reporting across the enterprise for all periods under review . In this context consolidation applications used for management and statutory reporting form a very necessary part of the drive to capture information reliably from a variety of underlying data sources at the end of each accounting period . Given the broadly based requirements of the EBR and in particular the possible need to report more widely on non-financial matters and related KPIs , consolidation systems become even more central to the solution . The ability to easily adapt data entry forms , collect statistical or memorandum information directly from the underlying transactions systems ( ERP ) and develop business logic as appropriate are essential to responding to the detail of the EBR . Web based data entry bolstered by vendor certified adapters that allow integration with third party transaction systems are becoming essential features for modern performance management systems . They can significantly reduce reporting cycles leaving management with more time to analyse performance and take remedial action as necessary . Reporting In recent years the advent of cost effective , web deployable reporting has opened up performance management applications to a much larger population of end users . Increasingly , this extended population has grown to include individuals from all levels of an organisation and most functional areas . Indeed , the EBR , with its diverse reporting requirements , underlines the need to engage with more individuals from across different functional areas in the organisation . With environmental , employee and social reporting firmly on the agenda , it is important that , say , finance directors , HR directors , Production directors and Investor Relations professionals are bound into a joined up process and equally comfortable with reporting from the performance management system regardless of their skills and background . So it is crucial too , that a performance management environment permits a variety of analytical tools to be deployed allowing users from different functional areas to select tools for the creation of regular production reporting , ad-hoc and interactive reports according to their personal preferences . As such , in addition to ‘ normal ' reporting , a performance management platform should ideally provide choices around , dashboards , scorecards , dynamic spreadsheets and portals as well as making use of the latest techniques in alerting , customisable displays ( colour coded meters , gauges and dials ) , animated pin-boards and “ traffic lighting ” to highlight under or over performance in a visually striking way . INTEGRATION IS KEY The performance management cycle as a business process draws on numerous specialised applications and potentially hundreds of underlying data sources to provide management insights . Traditional ETL ( Extract , Transform and Load ) tools , designed for bulk data transfers with no specific applications in mind are likely to prove lacking in a more challenging performance management environment . Newly emerging FDQM ( Financial Data Quality Management ) solutions created for complex performance management applications where interfaces are intricate and precision is vital will be more suitable . Specially designed to leverage the skills of the finance community to maintain financially oriented interfaces , they provide a bridge between source and target applications in a similar way to ETL but crucially provide visibility into the processes on either side , with full traceability of transactions backwards or forwards through the interfaces . Once the data is captured from the source systems it is vital that performance management processes , applications and data are fully integrated so that the integrity of data is assured right across the performance management environment and that all users share the same information . It is metadata that defines structural information , such as organisational hierarchies , account codes , time periods and product group dimensions that form the backbone of most performance management applications . Differences in metadata prevent reporting across applications and whilst it can be temporarily forced into alignment with clever mapping tools and technology it quickly slips out of alignment as changes are made to different business areas and applications . In theses circumstances , MDM ( Master Data Management ) style solutions that allows master data and data definitions to be staged in one repository so that the interrelationships between applications are defined and their metadata is synchronised throughout the performance management suite are crucial . MDM solutions ensure that amendments made to data structures by end users in any application are automatically reflected elsewhere so that any of the other applications working off the same data platform are automatically made ‘ aware ' of the change . Using this technique , structures are brought automatically into alignment , reporting maintains its integrity and consistency of reporting is assured . Unfortunately , many organisations have grown their performance applications and processes in isolation , often using different software vendor 's tools and spreadsheets which accentuate the differences . In these circumstances , each application is governed by its own business rules and data structures rendering comparisons of data held in different application areas unworkable . Making sense of all of this data presents significant management and IT challenges , particularly as the reporting landscape is constantly changing in the face of new reporting requirements . In addition a possible lack of consistency in reporting seriously jeopardises the reliability of reporting . In the context of the EBR , independent auditors have to attest that the claims made in the Business Review are consistent with the financial statements . Therefore , both management and auditors need certainty that , for example , a financial KPI reported in the EBR , such as Return on Capital Employed ( ROCE ) is completely consistent with the same values derived from a scorecard , the monthly board pack and the current forecast . So integration is at the heart of performance reporting and compliance with the EBR . It is only through integrated applications that management can be sure that the information it is using to analyse trends and factors affecting current and future performance is reliable and comparable over time . SUMMARY The narrative reporting requirements of the Companies Act 2006 are part of a growing trend in company reporting towards the convergence of external and internal management reporting combined with a surge of interest in non-financial reporting , most notably ; factors that affect employees , the environment and wider community . In effect , most of the provisions of the obsolete OFR have been re-introduced in the Act and apply equally to quoted and unquoted companies . The breadth of disclosure requirements coupled with formidable obligation to make forward looking statements means that management has to have its ‘ finger on the pulse ' of the company continually , analysing any trends and factors affecting performance right across the enterprise . Such demands mean that it is no longer viable for businesses to manage performance in functional silos or to use a series of unconnected applications and processes from different vendors which jeopardise data integrity . The need for constant appraisal of performance coupled the speed of reporting leaves no choice but for companies to standardise on an integrated performance management platform that can support robust and dependable processes from strategy setting right through to performance monitoring , analysis and reporting . But the needs of narrative reporting in the Business Review now extend beyond the pure technical requirement to unify metadata , applications and technology . Potentially , the construction of a comprehensive and balanced EBR requires the involvement of different functional specialists from across the organisation which means that systems have to address a wide range of competencies . The winners in performance management will be those BPM vendors that can provide an adaptable and rewarding ‘ user experience ' as well as an outstanding technical solution .

BILLINGHAMa , P.K. FEARONa , M.N. GRIGGa , S.W. BIGGERb aDepartment of Chemistry , University of Sussex , Brighton , BN1 9QJ , UK bVictoria University of Technology , P.O. Box 14428 , Melbourne 8001 , Australia Because of the effectiveness of modern stabilisers , accelerated ageing tests must be used to evaluate their performance . Oven ageing testing is the most reliable but is time consuming . Differential Scanning Calorimetry ( DSC ) has been widely used for measuring oxidation induction times ( OIT ) but is usually ( mis ) used at temperatures above the melting point of the polymer . Many polymers emit light ( chemiluminescence , CL ) during oxidation . CL offers an alternative method to monitor oxidation , its advantage being very high sensitivity . CL imaging of oxidative degradation has recently been made possible by the development of low noise , high sensitivity cameras , which allow multiple sampling , reducing experimental times and cost . Imaging also allows study of inhomogeneity . In collaboration with Mettler Toledo , we have combined CL measurement with DSC in a single instrument . The combination has obvious advantages where oxidation occurs simultaneously with other thermal events , e.g. melting , since the CL is sensitive only to oxidation . CL in inert atmospheres can easily detect the presence of peroxides at concentrations well below those detectable by DSC . Measurements on unstabilised samples of polypropylene show good correlation of CL with heat flow data , with kinetics consistent with the Russell mechanism for CL . Studies of the formation of carbonyl groups show that the relation of CL to C =O content is also consistent with the Russell mechanism . For stabilised samples OITs measured by both CL and DSC are similar . It is easier to operate the CL at very high sensitivity and CL can easily detect OITs above 70 h. Increased oxygen pressures allow analysis by CL under conditions where DSC signals are noisy . There is good correlation between CL values measured by single-sample CL and imaging detection . Multiple detection needs some care in order to avoid cross sample contamination but allows major economy of equipment time . Some applications of the DSC / [START_ENT] CL [END_ENT] method will be discussed , including the assessment of stabiliser performance and the correlation of OIT and oven ageing . ML02 RADIATION AGEING OF POLYMER MATERIALS J.L. GARDETTE , A. RIVATON Laboratoire de Photochimie Moléculaire et Macromoléculaire , UMR CNRS 6505 , Université Blaise Pascal , 63177 Aubière cedex France The modifications of structure and properties of polymeric materials resulting of the ageing initiated by ionising radiations have been a subject of interest as soon as nuclear programs began . Exposure of polymers to radiative environments causes indeed a deterioration of their properties . It has been approximately 50 years since researchers first began studying the effects of ionising radiations on polymers . The main radiation-induced changes consist in scissions and/or crosslinking of the macromolecular chains , formation of gaseous products such as hydrogen or low molecular weight hydrocarbons , accumulation of oxidation products , loss and/or formation of unsaturations . Among the numerous studies devoted to the radiochemical ageing of polymers , many of them report on the mechanism of the - initiated degradation of polyolefins . This presentation concerns the behaviour of EPDM copolymers , which are composed of ethylene ( PE ) , propylene ( PP ) and diene monomer ( 5-ethylidene 2-norbornene ( ENB ) in this study ) . These polymers find numerous applications and are often used as wire insulators or joints . If the mechanisms of photo - and thermo-oxidations of EPDM can be considered as well known , the radiation induced degradation of these polymers has only received little attention . On the basis of a recent study involving the identification of the various products that are formed , a mechanism accounting for the radiochemical degradation of EPDM has been proposed , with a peculiar attention given to the role played by oxygen and by the ENB termonomer . Two main processes are involved in the radiooxidation of EPDM . The random - radiolysis of the polymer provides a constant source of macroalkyl radicals mainly formed on ethylene units . The secondary radicals so formed are likely to initiate a selective oxidation of the polymer through free-radicals reactions involving the abstraction of labile hydrogen atoms . In particular , the decomposition of hydroperoxydes and the degradation of the ENB moieties , this latter being the most oxidisable site and the source of crosslinking , may result from hydrogen abstraction by radicalar species .4 ML03 OVERVIEW AND PARTICULARITIES IN DEGRADATION OF POLYOLEFINS DERIVED FROM FISCHER-TROPSCH SYNTHESIS I. TINCUL Sasol Technology , PO Box 1 , Sasolburg , 1947 , South Africa Polyolefins are without doubt the largest volume family of commercially polymers and a vast literature is dedicated to this field in the last half of century . The most complex pool of monomers is available from the Fischer Tropsch process that is gaining momentum as a major market source . When compared with ethylene oligomerization processes the main advantage of the Fischer Tropsch process is the production of odd carbon number linear and branched olefins that showed new application possibilities in both the polyethylene and polypropylene families . We prepared a large number of new polyolefins with Fischer Tropsch derived alpha olefins that have particular microstructures and morphology according to the type of branch , length of branch and number of branches / 1000 carbons . It is known that steric factors may play an important role in polyolefin degradation and that tertiary carbon is labile to oxidative attack . A decrease in crystallinity with the increase of comonomer content may favour auto-oxidation due to higher oxygen absorbtion . Very little literature on degradation of polyolefins prepared with Fisher Tropsch derived olefins is available . In this paper is presented and discussed some particularities on the degradation of polyolefins Fischer Tropsch derived . The manifestation of oxidation weather by temperature or aging concerning polymer appearance as discoloration , loss of optical properties , loss of mechanical properties and surface cracks were observed . This behaviour was similar to known polyolefins . Oxidation induction time as measured by DSC varies with the number of branch and length of branch introduced in the polymer chain by a certain comonomer . The thermal stability was measured also by thermogravimetry and compared with the polymer structure and thermal behaviour . The degradation temperature increases with an increase of carbon number of the comonomer . Investigation for a series of ethylene co-polymers and ter-polymers with linear and branched alpha olefins showed an increase of pre-exponential factor as a function of carbon number in an Arrhenius type equation . A decomposition kinetic study showed that the activation and the rate constant is also related to the size and type of branch . Rheological investigation showed a similar pattern . It was concluded that while polyolefins obtained with Fischer Tropsch derived olefins showed a behaviour similar with known polyolefins , particularities in degradation does exist and are related to the number and type of branch .

Van Nieuwenhuyse 4 , Box 3 , B -- 1160 Brussels E-mail address : neil.mayne apme.org Of the many options for recovery of plastics at the end-of-life , mechanical recycling is in principle the preferred route . There is an increasing understanding of the mechanisms , which affect the degradation of polymers or physical property enhancement by increasing their compatibility with other polymers . While many laboratory scale experiments demonstrate the potential for high levels of recycling , in practice the levels achieved on an industrial scale with post-consumer plastics can be viewed as disappointingly low . In addition to economic considerations , this is because there are a limited number of applications allowing closed loop recycling and there is a mismatch between the supply of recyclate and demand from the market . New developments will increase the potential , but such recycling will nevertheless remain limited . Feedstock recycling technologies offer versatility and many large scale processes have been developed and demonstrated . Logistics and supply commitments are key factors in determining viability . To date , fully commercial plants are only operational in Germany and Japan . A number of active developments are , however , currently underway in a number of European countries . Energy recovery will become an increasingly important recovery option as it is also being stimulated by restrictions on the landfilling of waste . Even if the full potential of mechanical recycling were to be realized , the major part of total plastics waste would still be available for use as an alternative fuel . This means that with the expected growth of plastics , this represents an increasingly important source of energy , equivalent to millions of tonnes of imported oil each year . The challenge for the successful recovery of plastics is to identify and use the optimum combination of options , underpinned by continuing innovation in process , product and recovery technologies in order to increase the resource efficiency of products throughout their whole life-cycle . ML05 OPTIMISAZION OF PROCESSING CONDITIONS IN THE RECYCLING OF POLYCONDENSATION POLYMERS F.P. LA MANTIA , R. SCAFFARO Dipartimento di Ingegneria Chimica dei Processi e dei Materiali Università di Palermo , Viale delle Scienze , 90128 , Palermo , Italy Mechanical recycling of polymers is a very complex and difficult process because repetitive melt processing can lead to severe degradation of these materials with subsequent deterioration of all the properties . For condensation polymers , the degradation rate is much faster in the presence of water that induces depolymerization reactions , having also a synergistic effect with thermomechanical degradation and exalting the loss of properties . Indeed , a careful drying prior to processing can drastically reduce the degradation phenomena but increasing the complexity of the process and its cost . The aim of this work is to study the effect of the reprocessing of some polycondensation polymers with and in absence of water . Moreover , the possibility to process wet polymer in the presence of proper stabilisers to avoid the drying step has been studied too . The materials chosen for the study have been polyamide 6 , polycarbonate and polyethyleneterephtalate . The results indicate that for the three different systems considered , the wet processing causes , as expected , a strong reduction of the mechanical properties and of the molecular weight , as evidenced by rheological and thermal measurements . If a degassing stage is added to the processing apparatus , a certain improvement of the properties is observed . This can be explained in terms of humidity removing with consequent reduction of the hydrolytic chain scission . When nitrogen flow is added to the degassing , both humidity and oxygen are practically eliminated from the system , and a further improvement of the properties is observed . This can be explained with the further reduction of the humidity but it also suggests that degradation mechanism involves reactions . The presence small amounts ( 500 ppm ) of a particular antioxidant has a positive effect in all the cases . In particular , the adding of antioxidant can substitute the drying stage as it is able to protect the macromolecules from hydrolysis . This behaviour can be explained considering that this antioxidant is more prone to hydrolysis than the polymer , thus removing the water from the melt and decreasing the degradation rate . Such consideration has been proved using different antioxidants with different tendency to hydrolysis : using antioxidants with theoretical reduced hydrolysis tendency caused a parallel reduction of the protection with consequent loss of properties . The positive effect of the presence of the antioxidant has been also verified for several reprocessing steps ( up to five ) . The results indicate that the presence of the antioxidant still have positive effects also after several recycling operation . It can be concluded that the mechanical recycling of condensation polymers can be effectuated with practically any loss of properties if an adequate removal of humidity from the system is performed . A valid alternative to the complex and expensive pre-drying operation can be the adding of antioxidants that undergo hydrolysis in vice of the polymers . ML06 FEEDSTOCK RECYCLING OF PLASTICS IN JAPAN A.OKUWAKI Tohoku University , Graduate School of Environmental Studies ,07 Aoba , Sendai , 980-8579 Various commercial plants for feedstock recycling of waste plastics have started up in Japan . In 1999 , only Niigata liquefaction plant was operated . Now they are liquefaction at Sapporo , and Mikasa , Blast Furnace application by NKK , Coke Oven application by Nippon Steel Corp. , Gasification by EBARA-UBE , and Glycolysis of PET bottles by Teijin . Separated PET bottles are now used as raw material for polyester fibers , 30,000 t/y in capacity from April , 2002 , and the two commercial plants for the Bottle to Bottle recycling are under construction for the first time in the world . Clearly this is related to the practical implementation of the Containers and Packaging Recycling Law carried out in 1997 for PET bottles and in 2000 for the other plastics . This law affords allocating the cost for feedstock recycling of waste plastics separated only in homes . It has created attractive markets and thus , they say that the separated waste plastics are even in short supply in Japan . Recovery of PET bottles increases successfully since 1997 , but that of plastics increases dramatically since 2000 when the law has carried out . On the other hand , their cost for recycling decreases gradually . At present , their recycling fees are quite expensive compared to the cost for treatment of industrial waste plastics . However , it is expected that the cost will continue to drop . This trend suggests that the active competitions among various techniques proceed including the improvement of collection system . This situation creates big chances for the world recycling technologies in the Japanese market and refine necessarily both techniques and logistic systems . The Home Appliances Recycling Law came into full force in April 2001 is to be revised within a few years . In such process , they say , not only the recycling of their plastics cases , but also that of printed circuit boards are introduced to elevate the recycling degree . In addition , the Law for Recycling of End-of-Life Vehicles has passed through the Parliament , July 2002 . They say , an average cost per car will be 20,000 Yen , namely 151Euro . Clearly this law should proceed the recycling of automotive shredder residue . These environmental policy of Japanese Government are sure to promote more the recycling of waste plastics in Japan

Phthinosaurus is an extinct genus of therapsids from the Middle Permian of Russia. The type species Phthinosaurus borrisiaki was named by Soviet paleontologist Ivan Yefremov in 1940 on the basis of an isolated lower jaw. Because this jaw provides few distinguishing characteristics, the evolutionary relationships of "Phthinosaurus" are poorly known. Yefremov named the family Phthinosuchidae in 1954 to include "Phthinosaurus" and the newly named "Phthinosuchus", which was described on the basis of a crushed partial skull. American paleontologist Everett C. Olson placed both of these therapsids in the larger infraorder Phthinosuchia in 1961. In 1974 Leonid Tatarinov named the family Phthinosauridae to include "Phthinosaurus" alone, retaining "Phthinosuchus" within Phthinosuchidae.

Input

where does cleavage of the peptide bond by chymotrypsin occur

Output

Answer

digestive systems

Provenance

Wikipedia article: Chymotrypsin

"In vivo", chymotrypsin is a proteolytic enzyme (serine protease) acting in the digestive systems of many organisms. It facilitates the cleavage of peptide bonds by a hydrolysis reaction, which despite being thermodynamically favorable, occurs extremely slowly in the absence of a catalyst. The main substrates of chymotrypsin are peptide bonds in which the amino acid N-terminal to the bond is a tryptophan, tyrosine, phenylalanine, or leucine. Like many proteases, chymotrypsin also hydrolyses amide bonds "in vitro", a virtue that enabled the use of substrate analogs such as N-acetyl-L-phenylalanine p-nitrophenyl amide for enzyme assays.

Answer

where the side - chain of the amino acid N - terminal to the scissile amide bond ( the P position ) is a large hydrophobic amino acid ( tyrosine , tryptophan , and phenylalanine )

Answer

positions 14 - 15 , 146 - 147 and 148 - 149

Provenance

Wikipedia article: Chymotrypsin

Chymotrypsin (, chymotrypsins A and B, alpha-chymar ophth, avazyme, chymar, chymotest, enzeon, quimar, quimotrase, alpha-chymar, alpha-chymotrypsin A, alpha-chymotrypsin) is a digestive enzyme component of pancreatic juice acting in the duodenum, where it performs proteolysis, the breakdown of proteins and polypeptides. Chymotrypsin preferentially cleaves peptide amide bonds where the side chain of the amino acid C-terminal to the scissile amide bond (the P position) is a large hydrophobic amino acid (tyrosine, tryptophan, and phenylalanine). These amino acids contain an aromatic ring in their side chain that fits into a hydrophobic pocket (the S position) of the enzyme. It is activated in the presence of trypsin. The hydrophobic and shape complementarity between the peptide substrate P side chain and the enzyme S binding cavity accounts for the substrate specificity of this enzyme. Chymotrypsin also hydrolyzes other amide bonds in peptides at slower rates, particularly those containing leucine and methionine at the P position.

Provenance

Wikipedia article: Chymotrypsin

Chymotrypsin is synthesized in the pancreas by protein biosynthesis as a precursor called chymotrypsinogen that is enzymatically inactive. Trypsin activates chymotrypsinogen by cleaving peptidic bonds in positions Arg15 - Ile16 and produces π-chymotrypsin. In turn, aminic group (-NH3) of the Ile16 residue interacts with the side chain of Glu194, producing the "oxyanion hole" and the hydrophobic "S1 pocket". Moreover, chymotrypsin induces its own activation by cleaving in positions 14-15, 146-147, and 148-149, producing α-chymotrypsin (which is more active and stable than π-chymotrypsin). The resulting molecule is a three-polypeptide molecule interconnected via disulfide bonds.

Chymotrypsinogen is an inactive precursor (zymogen) of chymotrypsin, a digestive enzyme which breaks proteins down into smaller peptides. Chymotrypsinogen is a single polypeptide chain consisting of 245 amino acid residues. It is synthesized in the acinar cells of the pancreas and stored inside membrane-bounded granules at the apex of the acinar cell. Release of the granules from the cell is stimulated by either a hormonal signal or a nerve impulse, and the granules spill into a duct leading into the duodenum.

Output

Answer

transposed

Provenance

Wikipedia article: Music theory

In traditional Western notation, the scale used for a composition is usually indicated by a key signature at the beginning to designate the pitches that make up that scale. As the music progresses, the pitches used may change and introduce a different scale. Music can be transposed from one scale to another for various purposes, often to accommodate the range of a vocalist. Such transposition raises or lowers the overall pitch range, but preserves the intervallic relationships of the original scale. For example, transposition from the key of C major to D major raises all pitches of the scale of C major equally by a whole tone. Since the interval relationships remain unchanged, transposition may be unnoticed by a listener, however other qualities may change noticeably because transposition changes the relationship of the overall pitch range compared to the range of the instruments or voices that perform the music. This often affects the music's overall sound, as well as having technical implications for the performers.

The film essentially preserves the novel's narrative style by presenting the story as a book being read by a grandfather (Peter Falk) to his sick grandson (Fred Savage).

what percent of the us population controls the wealth

Output

Answer

1 %

Provenance

Wikipedia article: Wealth inequality in the United States

In 2007, the top 20% wealthiest possessed 80% of all financial assets. In 2007 the richest 1% of the American population owned 35% of the country's total wealth, and the next 19% owned 51%. Thus, the top 20% of Americans owned 86% of the country's wealth and the bottom 80% of the population owned 14%. In 2011, financial inequality was greater than inequality in total wealth, with the top 1% of the population owning 43%, the next 19% of Americans owning 50%, and the bottom 80% owning 7%. However, after the Great Recession which started in 2007, the share of total wealth owned by the top 1% of the population grew from 35% to 37%, and that owned by the top 20% of Americans grew from 86% to 88%. The Great Recession also caused a drop of 36% in median household wealth, but a drop of only 11% for the top 1%, further widening the gap between the top 1% and the bottom 99%.

Provenance

Wikipedia article: Wealth inequality in the United States

Just prior to President Obama's 2014 State of the Union Address, media reported that the top wealthiest 1% possess 40% of the nation's wealth; the bottom 80% own 7%; similarly, but later, the media reported, the "richest 1 percent in the United States now own more additional income than the bottom 90 percent". The gap between the top 10% and the middle class is over 1,000%; that increases another 1,000% for the top 1%. The average employee "needs to work more than a month to earn what the CEO earns in one hour." Although different from income inequality, the two are related. In "Inequality for All"—a 2013 documentary with Robert Reich in which he argued that income inequality is the defining issue for the United States—Reich states that 95% of economic gains went to the top 1% net worth (HNWI) since 2009 when the recovery allegedly started. More recently, in 2017, an Oxfam study found that eight rich people, six of them Americans, own as much combined wealth as half the human race.

Wealth inequality in the United States

Wikipedia article: We are the 99%

CNBC senior markets writer Jeff Cox reacted negatively to the protest movement, calling the 1% are "the most vilified members of American society" who protesters fail to realize includes not only corporate CEOs (31% of the top earning one percent), bankers and stock traders (13.9%), but also doctors (1.85%), real estate professionals (3.2%), entertainers in arts, media and sports (1.6%), professors and scientists (1.8%), lawyers (1.22%), farmers and ranchers (0.5%), and pilots (0.2%). Cox claimed that 1 Percenters pay a disproportionate amount of their incomes to taxes. He stated the phenomenon of wealth concentration among a small segment of the population is a century old, and argued a direct correlation between wealth concentration and the health of the stock market, stating that 36.7% of the United States' wealth was controlled by the 1% in 1922, 44.2% when the stock market crashed in 1929, 19.9% in 1976, and has increased since then. Cox wrote that wealth concentration intensified at the same time that the US changed from a manufacturing leader to a financial services leader. Cox took issue with protesters' focus on income and wealth, and with their embrace of rich allies such as actress Susan Sarandon and Russell Simmons, who are themselves in the 1%. Joseph Barro of "National Review" offered similar arguments, asserting that the 1% includes those with incomes beginning at $593,000, which would exclude most Wall Street bankers.

Various free, low-cost, and unrestricted substitutes for UNIX emerged in the 1980s and 1990s, including 4.4BSD, Linux, and Minix. Some of these have in turn been the basis for commercial "Unix-like" systems, such as BSD/OS and macOS. Several versions of (Mac) OS X/macOS running on Intel-based Mac computers have been certified under the Single UNIX Specification. The BSD variants are descendants of UNIX developed by the University of California at Berkeley with UNIX source code from Bell Labs. However, the BSD code base has evolved since then, replacing all of the AT&T code. Since the BSD variants are not certified as compliant with the Single UNIX Specification, they are referred to as "UNIX-like" rather than "UNIX".

Virginia Dare

Provenance

Wikipedia article: Roanoke Island

In 1587, the English now led by John White tried to settle in Roanoke Island again. At this time the Secotan Tribe and their Roanoke dependents were totally hostile to the English, but the Croatoan remained allies. Manteo remained aligned with the English and attempted to bring the English and his Croatoan tribe together, even after the newcomers mistakenly killed his own mother- who was also the Croatoan chief. After the incident Manteo was baptized into the Anglican Church. Manteo was then assigned by the English to be representative of all of the native nations in the region, this title was mainly symbolic as only the Croatoan nation followed Manteo. John White, father of the colonist Eleanor Dare and grandfather to Virginia Dare, the first English child born in the New World, left the colony to return to England for supplies. He expected to return to Roanoke Island within three months.

Provenance

Wikipedia article: Roanoke Island

Roanoke Island was the site of the Roanoke Colony, an English settlement initially established in 1585 by Sir Walter Raleigh. A group of about 120 men, women and children arrived in 1587. Shortly after arriving in this New World, colonist Eleanor Dare, daughter of Governor John White, gave birth to Virginia Dare. She was the first English child born in North America. Governor White returned to England later that year for supplies. Due to impending war with Spain, White was unable to return to Roanoke Island until 1590. When he arrived, the colony had vanished. The fate of those first colonists remains a mystery to this day and is one of America's most intriguing unsolved mysteries. Archaeologists, historians, and other researchers continue to work to resolve the mystery. Visitors to the Fort Raleigh National Historic Site can watch "The Lost Colony", the second-longest-running outdoor theatre production in the United States, which presents a conjecture of the fate of Roanoke Colony.

It began with a small guard unit known as the "Saal-Schutz" ("Hall Security") made up of NSDAP volunteers to provide security for party meetings in Munich. In 1925, Heinrich Himmler joined the unit, which had by then been reformed and given its final name. Under his direction (1929–45) it grew from a small paramilitary formation to one of the most powerful organizations in Nazi Germany. From 1929 until the regime's collapse in 1945, the SS was the foremost agency of security, surveillance, and terror within Germany and German-occupied Europe.

What characteristic meaning it's transferable between species, does monkeypox and cowpox virus both share?

Output

Answer

zoonotic

Provenance

Wikipedia article: Monkeypox virus

Monkeypox virus (MPV) is a double-stranded DNA, zoonotic virus and a species of the genus "Orthopoxvirus" in the family Poxviridae. It is one of the human orthopoxviruses that includes variola (VARV), cowpox (CPX), and vaccinia (VACV) viruses. But it is not a direct ancestor to, nor a direct descendant of, the variola virus which causes smallpox. "Monkeypox virus" causes a disease that is similar to smallpox, but with a milder rash and lower death rate. Variation in virulence of the virus has been observed in isolates from Central Africa where strains are more virulent than those from Western Africa.

Provenance

Wikipedia article: Cowpox

Cowpox is an infectious disease caused by the cowpox virus. The virus, part of the genus "Orthopoxvirus", is closely related to the "vaccinia" virus. The virus is zoonotic, meaning that it is transferable between species, such as from animal to human. The transferral of the disease was first observed in dairymaids who touched the udders of infected cows and consequently developed the signature pustules on their hands. Cowpox is more commonly found in animals other than bovines, such as rodents. Cowpox is similar to, but much milder than, the highly contagious and often deadly smallpox disease. Its close resemblance to the mild form of smallpox and the observation that dairy farmers were immune from smallpox inspired the first smallpox vaccine, created and administered by English physician Edward Jenner.

"In ""The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy"" by Douglas Adams, what was the name of the computer that determined that the answer to the ultimate question of Life, the Universe and Everything was 42?"

Output

Answer

Deep Thought

Provenance

Wikipedia article: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

In "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" (published in 1979), the characters visit the legendary planet Magrathea, home to the now-collapsed planet-building industry, and meet Slartibartfast, a planetary coastline designer who was responsible for the fjords of Norway. Through archival recordings, he relates the story of a race of hyper-intelligent pan-dimensional beings who built a computer named Deep Thought to calculate the Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything. When the answer was revealed to be 42, Deep Thought explained that the answer was incomprehensible because the beings didn't know what the Question they were asking actually was. It went on to predict that another computer, more powerful than itself, would be made and designed by it to calculate the question for the answer. (Later on, referencing this, Adams would create the 42 Puzzle, a puzzle which could be approached in multiple ways, all yielding the answer 42.)

Answer

Deep Thought

Wikipedia article: Phrases from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

In the radio series and the first novel, a group of hyper-intelligent pan-dimensional beings demand to learn the Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, The Universe, and Everything from the supercomputer Deep Thought, specially built for this purpose. It takes Deep Thought 7½ million years to compute and check the answer, which turns out to be 42. Deep Thought points out that the answer seems meaningless because the beings who instructed it never actually knew what the Question was.

Answer

Paris

Provenance

Wikipedia article: Rome

Architecturally, Fascism favored the most modern movements, such as Rationalism. Parallel to this, in the 1920s another style emerged, named "Stile Novecento", characterised by its links with ancient Roman architecture. One important construction in the latter style is the Foro Mussolini, now Foro Italico, by Enrico Del Debbio. Next to it, the most important Fascist site in Rome is the EUR district, designed in 1938 by Marcello Piacentini. This new quarter emerged as a compromise between Rationalist and Novecento architects, the former being led by Giuseppe Pagano. The EUR was originally conceived for the 1942 world exhibition, and was called "E.42" (""Esposizione 42""). The most representative buildings of EUR are the Palazzo della Civiltà Italiana (1938–1943), the iconic design of which has been labelled the cubic of Square Colosseum, and the Palazzo dei Congressi, example of Rationalist style. The world exhibition, however, never took place because Italy entered the Second World War in 1940, and the realised buildings were partly destroyed in 1943 during the fighting between Italian and German army after the armistice and later abandoned. The quarter was restored in the 1950s, when the Roman authorities found that they already had the seed of an off-centre business district of the type that other capitals were still planning (London Docklands and La Défense in Paris). Also, the Palazzo della Farnesina, the current seat of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, was designed in 1935 in pure Fascist style.

The Constitution grants to Congress the authority to admit new states into the Union. Since the establishment of the United States in 1776, the number of states has expanded from the original 13 to 50. Alaska and Hawaii are the most recent states admitted, both in 1959. The Constitution is silent on the question of whether states have the power to secede (withdraw) from the Union. Shortly after the Civil War, the U.S. Supreme Court, in "Texas v.

Unlike the elected House of Commons, members of the House of Lords (excluding 90 hereditary peers elected among themselves and two peers who are "ex officio" members) are appointed. The membership of the House of Lords is drawn from the peerage and is made up of Lords Spiritual and Lords Temporal. The Lords Spiritual are 26 bishops in the established Church of England. Of the Lords Temporal, the majority are life peers who are appointed by the monarch on the advice of the Prime Minister, or on the advice of the House of Lords Appointments Commission. However, they also include some hereditary peers including four dukes.

Answer

English House of Lords

Provenance

Wikipedia article: House of Lords

The size of the House of Lords has varied greatly throughout its history. The English House of Lords - then comprising 168 members - was joined at Westminster by 16 Scottish peers to represent the peerage of Scotland - a total of 184 nobles - in 1707's first Parliament of Great Britain. A further 28 Irish members to represent the peerage of Ireland were added in 1801 to the first Parliament of the United Kingdom. From about 220 peers in the eighteenth century, the house saw continued expansion; with the increasing numbers of life peers after the Life Peerages Act 1958 and the inclusion of all Scottish peers and the first female peers in the Peerage Act 1963, it increased to a record size of 1,330 in October 1999, before Lords reform reduced it to 669, mostly life peers, by March 2000. The chamber's membership again expanded in the following decades, increasing to above eight hundred active members in 2014 and prompting further reforms in the House of Lords Reform Act that year. A cap of 600 members was subsequently proposed by the Lords, though the current figure is 782.

Answer

Provenance

Wikipedia article: Badminton

Games employing shuttlecocks have been played for centuries across Eurasia, but the modern game of badminton developed in the mid-19th century among the British as a variant of the earlier game of battledore and shuttlecock. ("Battledore" was an older term for "racquet".) Its exact origin remains obscure. The name derives from the Duke of Beaufort's Badminton House in Gloucestershire, but why or when remains unclear. As early as 1860, a London toy dealer named Isaac Spratt published a booklet entitled "Badminton Battledore – A New Game", but no copy is known to have survived. An 1863 article in "The Cornhill Magazine" describes badminton as "battledore and shuttlecock played with sides, across a string suspended some five feet from the ground".

A recording of the song instead played over a travelogue of the city at the start of the opening ceremony, seconds before the official countdown.

Wikipedia article: 1996 Summer Olympics

Atlanta was selected on September 18, 1990, in Tokyo, Japan, over Athens, Belgrade, Manchester, Melbourne, and Toronto at the 96th IOC Session. The city entered the competition as a dark horse, being up against stiff competition. The US media also criticized it as a second-tier city and complained of Georgia's Confederate history. However, the IOC Evaluation Commission ranked Atlanta's infrastructure and facilities the highest, while IOC members said that it could guarantee large television revenues similar to the success of the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. Additionally, former US ambassador to the UN and Atlanta mayor Andrew Jackson Young touted Atlanta's civil rights history and reputation for racial harmony. Young also wanted to showcase a reformed American South. The strong economy of Atlanta and improved race relations in the South helped to impress the IOC officials. The Atlanta Committee for the Olympic Games (ACOG) also proposed a substantial revenue-sharing with the IOC, USOC, and other NOCs. Atlanta's main rivals were Toronto, whose front-running bid that began in 1986 had chances to succeed after Canada had held a successful 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary, and Melbourne, Australia, who hosted the 1956 Summer Olympics and after Brisbane, Australia's failed bid for the 1992 games (which were awarded to Barcelona) and prior to Sydney, Australia's successful 2000 Summer Olympics bid. This would be Toronto's fourth failed attempt since 1960 (tried in 1960, 1964, and 1976, but defeated by Rome, Tokyo and Montreal).

Answer

Cressida

Provenance

Wikipedia article: William Shakespeare

In the early 17th century, Shakespeare wrote the so-called "problem plays" "Measure for Measure", "Troilus and Cressida", and "All's Well That Ends Well" and a number of his best known tragedies. Many critics believe that Shakespeare's greatest tragedies represent the peak of his art. The titular hero of one of Shakespeare's greatest tragedies, "Hamlet", has probably been discussed more than any other Shakespearean character, especially for his famous soliloquy which begins "To be or not to be; that is the question". Unlike the introverted Hamlet, whose fatal flaw is hesitation, the heroes of the tragedies that followed, Othello and King Lear, are undone by hasty errors of judgement. The plots of Shakespeare's tragedies often hinge on such fatal errors or flaws, which overturn order and destroy the hero and those he loves. In "Othello", the villain Iago stokes Othello's sexual jealousy to the point where he murders the innocent wife who loves him. In "King Lear", the old king commits the tragic error of giving up his powers, initiating the events which lead to the torture and blinding of the Earl of Gloucester and the murder of Lear's youngest daughter Cordelia. According to the critic Frank Kermode, "the play-offers neither its good characters nor its audience any relief from its cruelty". In "Macbeth", the shortest and most compressed of Shakespeare's tragedies, uncontrollable ambition incites Macbeth and his wife, Lady Macbeth, to murder the rightful king and usurp the throne until their own guilt destroys them in turn. In this play, Shakespeare adds a supernatural element to the tragic structure. His last major tragedies, "Antony and Cleopatra" and "Coriolanus", contain some of Shakespeare's finest poetry and were considered his most successful tragedies by the poet and critic T.S. Eliot.

Why do well established brands (eg. Coke) still market themselves so aggressively? What do they stand to gain when they're already a household name?

Output

Answer

All that marketing is how they continue to stay a household name. These aren't video game achievements where once you reach them, you never lose them again. If these established brands stop marketing themselves, they will start losing market share.

Answer

I apologize for not having a cite to hand, but we did a case study in my intro to marketing class in college (this would have been in 1999, I think) on a trial McDonalds ran somewhere in Ohio. They had the same thought you do: everyone already knows what McDonalds is, where to find them, what they serve, etc. So they pulled all their advertising from one city. The results were both quick and significant: they started shedding market share in that city within a month, to the tune of tens of percents (IIRC, it approached 50%, but since I don't have the data to hand and human memory is crap, I don't want to overbid).

Answer

If you pay attention to it, only a small amount of Coke marketing is actually intended to promote their umbrella brand. Instead they focus more on individual product brands (e.g. Coke Zero, Fanta, etc.). While Coca-Cola maybe well known, individual products and their "positioning" (summary of product characteristics, intended target group, benefits, etc.) may still benefit from increased awareness. Additionally marketing and branding isn´t all about awareness, that´s just the first part of the purchase funnel (Awareness -- > Image -- > Consideration -- > Purchase -- > Repurchase), they also want to promote a certain image. This image may change over the years, even if the name and logo doesn´t or it may be under attack from outside reevaluations. So even a well-known umbrella brand is marketed to re-enforce and maybe update their brand image. Lastly, Coke is a consumption good with relatively low involvement (small investments, no long-term effects of purchase decision, etc.) unlike, e.g. a car for example. So people often decide relatively spontaneous about which brand and whether to buy at all. That´s why it´s more important for Coke to promote themselves constantly than it is for a brand like GE. However we shouldn´t discount that many companies actually do invest in marketing activities that aren´t really helpful to them. Not every company investing in brand awareness has done the research and pinpointed brand awareness as their key lever to address. Most often marketing activities that promote the brand awareness are just the easiest and most salient measure to do for many marketing departments.

Answer

Because if you do not actively market yourself you very quickly fall out of the backs of people's minds and once that happens you stop being a household name. Shortly after that you stop being an established brand and either have to claw your way back to the top or you fail. It is far better to just continually market your brand.

Answer

Basically, brand exposure is mind control. Thinking about Coke makes you want a Coke. Seeing an ad for Coke while you're drinking Coke makes you feel good about drinking Coke, because you see other smiling, attractive people drinking Coke too. And now you want to have some Coke at home, so after you finish drinking that Coke you go to the store and buy a case of Coke. And you serve Coke with dinner because you want your kids to be smiling, attractive people too. Attractive people like Coke, of course - the TV told me so. Drink Coke!

Answer

There are many reasons, but the one that I don't see mentioned yet is something called "top of mind". Basically the core concept is this: When I say "fast food", what place immediately comes to your mind? When I say "soda", what product immediately comes to your mind? Occupying the "top of mind" of a person essentially sets you up for success because if people don't think of you or or your product when a need/want comes up, they won't chose you. Constantly showing advertisements for Coke keeps the brand in your top of mind, and you will more than likely think of it the next time you think about drinking a soda.

Answer

The second biggest part of marketing, after drawing in new customers, is usually to make existing customers feel satisfied in their choice of brand. Ensuring that people continue to drink Coke is at least as important as marketing Coke to new customers, or encouraging customers to leave the competition.

Answer

Products like Coca-Cola (and most of their sister products) are known as cash cows in marketing terminology - they bring in steady, large income streams and profits from these products can be used to fund expensive R & D and marketing campaigns for products that are new or not yet self-sustaining. However they still require a considerable marketing investment to ensure that brand awareness remains high in the medium to long term.

Answer

You may know of it, but you need to make sure everyone does. New generations of people are born daily, and if marketing slows down, something will slowly replace it.

Answer

Coca Cola tried cutting advertising once. They lost a ton of revenue that year and decided "well, let's not try that again."

Answer

Kaepa had a few years where they were a household name and a top tier brand. Do you know what Kaepa is?

Answer

People are subconsciously attracted to products that they recognize, so companies constantly advertise to ensure the recognition is always there.

Wikipedia article: Diet Coke

Diet Coke (called Coca-Cola Light in some countries) is a sugar-free and no-calorie soft drink produced and distributed by The Coca-Cola Company. It contains artificial sweeteners instead of sugar. Unveiled on July 8, 1982, and introduced in the United States on August 9, it was the first new brand since 1886 to use the Coca-Cola trademark. The product quickly overtook the company's existing diet cola, Tab, in sales.

Provenance

Wikipedia article: Advertising campaign

The positioning process is imperative in marketing because of the specific level of consumer-based recognition is involved. A company must create a trademark brand for themselves in order to be recognizable by a broad range of consumers. For example, a fast food restaurant positions itself as fast, cheap, and delicious. They are playing upon their strengths and most visible characteristics. On the other hand, a luxury car brand will position its brand as a stylish and expensive platform because they want to target a specific brand very different than the fast food brand.

why does sugar turn brown when melted?

Output

Answer

Sugar is a molecule made of a particular arrangement of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen atoms. When you heat up the sugar, this adds energy to the system that can be used to fuel chemical reactions that rearrange the bonds between these atoms. Some of these compounds are dark brown in color and add caramel flavors to the sugar. Similar reactions occur in meat when you cook it and get a tasty brown crust.

Answer

It turns brown because of [caramelization]( URL_0 ). Now, caramelization in itself is a poorly understood process, but we know a few things about it. It is, simply put, the degradation of sugars under heat. Now, these sugars break up into simpler sugars, dehydrate, fragment into aldehydes and ketones, polymerise and undergo several other reactions. Don't concern yourself with the details of the reactions unless you want to - just understand that there are many reactions simultaneously occuring at that temperature. For the compounds we are interested in, we can broadly separate them into two categories - volatile compounds and polymers. (It's a lot more complex than this but these are the two important classes). * Volatile compounds like [diacetyl]( URL_1 ), [Hydroxymethylfurfural]( URL_2 ) etc. are released which gives caramel its characteristic smell/flavour. * The polymers (30+ carbon atoms/molecule) formed are grouped into three classes: Caramelans, Caramelens and Caramelins. They contribute to the brown colour of caramel. Clearing out some misconceptions 1. Caramelization is not the same as the Maillard reaction (browning of bread, meat etc). *The Maillard reaction requires amino acids to react with sugars, whereas caramelization does not* (it is simply the degradation of sugars with heat). They both involve browning and can occur simultaneously, on the same food base, and with similar results on the taste buds, so they are quite easily confused. 2. It is not brown because of carbon. That sort of burning requires a much higher temperature than the caramelization reaction. If you try to caramelize on too high a flame, you will see it turning black and tasting charred. That is carbon (see pyrolysis/carbonization for such reactions).

Answer

It's worth mentioning that it is possible to melt sugar with it remaining clear, but it is difficult because it so readily burns.

Answer

I had a lab report due on the Maillard reaction at 11:59. It’s because of what everyone else said. Monosaccharide sugars respond quicker than di/poly- saccharides and the reaction increases speed with increased temperature and or increased pH to make it more a more aqueous or basic environment. It’s a non enzymatic browning reaction that occurs between a reducing sugar and an amino acid with heating/ etc. ketones work better than aldoses because they are more inclined to release positive aromatic compounds while aldoses such as Xylose release compounds that smell like dirty socks.

Answer

A lot of whack answers in here and misinformation. First off, it has nothing to do with the Maillard reaction so ignore all those. ELI5: Think of sugar like a pyramid of Lego bricks, you start heating them up in a frying pan and start by breaking them into single bricks, this is your melted sugar. As you keep heating, your going to start melting some of your bricks that are touching the frying pan. Clearly these melted Lego bricks aren't going fit back together, maybe you can get a few together but you can't stack them like you could before and some of them might start melting together, these are your browning products and flavors in your sugar (caramelisation). If you keep heating your eventually going to burn your Lego, turning it black (pyrolysis).

Answer

Don't all things go brown/golden when heated.. Then black when they burn..?

Answer

Sugar is part of a type of molecules known as carbohydrates. At a very simplistic level carbohydrates are carbon atoms with waters around them with the generic formula (CH2O)x. For sugar x is 12 but that is not important. What is important is that if you heat sugar enough, you eliminate water molecules (think of it as boiling) and you are left with just carbon atoms (basically coal). Between coal and sugar, there are various levels of dehydration, so you go from colorless/white to black. In between you have yellow and brown, depending on how much dehydration you did.

Answer

As others have said there are some reactions that occur to make it brown, however there are many compounds that I work with which are nice white crystals when solids but are yellow or brown oils when liquids so a change in color doesn't necessarily mean a chemical reaction.

Provenance

Wikipedia article: History of sugar

Sugar was first produced from sugarcane plants in northern India sometime after the first century CE. The derivation of the word “sugar” is thought to be from Sanskrit ("śarkarā"), meaning "ground or candied sugar," originally "grit, gravel". Sanskrit literature from ancient India, written between 1500 - 500 B.C. provides the first documentation of the cultivation of sugar cane and of the manufacture of sugar in the Bengal region of the Indian subcontinent. The Sanskrit name for a crudely made sugar substance was guda, meaning “to make into a ball or to conglomerate.”

Wikipedia article: Honey

Unlike many other liquids, honey has very poor thermal conductivity of 0.5 W/(m⋅K) at 13% water content (compared to 401 W/(m⋅K) of copper), taking a long time to reach thermal equilibrium. Due to its high kinematic viscosity honey does not transfer heat through momentum diffusion (convection) but rather through thermal diffusion (more like a solid), so melting crystallized honey can easily result in localized caramelization if the heat source is too hot, or if it is not evenly distributed. However, honey takes substantially longer to liquify when just above the melting point than at elevated temperatures. Melting 20 kg of crystallized honey, at , can take up to 24 hours, while 50 kg may take twice as long. These times can be cut nearly in half by heating at . However, many of the minor substances in honey can be affected greatly by heating, changing the flavor, aroma, or other properties, so heating is usually done at the lowest temperature possible for the shortest amount of time.

Provenance

Wikipedia article: Honey

Like all sugar compounds, honey caramelizes if heated sufficiently, becoming darker in color, and eventually burns. However, honey contains fructose, which caramelizes at lower temperatures than glucose. The temperature at which caramelization begins varies, depending on the composition, but is typically between . Honey also contains acids, which act as catalysts for caramelization. The specific types of acids and their amounts play a primary role in determining the exact temperature. Of these acids, the amino acids, which occur in very small amounts, play an important role in the darkening of honey. The amino acids form darkened compounds called melanoidins, during a Maillard reaction. The Maillard reaction occurs slowly at room temperature, taking from a few to several months to show visible darkening, but speeds up dramatically with increasing temperatures. However, the reaction can also be slowed by storing the honey at colder temperatures.

How would someone who is fit be affected if they literally ate complete Junk food for one day?

Output

Answer

There's a show on A & E called "Fit to Fat to Fit." It follows personal trainers who purposefully eat junk for 8 weeks to get fat. And then they lose the weight alongside their heaviest clients. Most episodes follow similar tropes. Typically, the trainers feel great for a week or two. The rush of processed sugars in their lean bodies and relaxation of regimens is a pretty common theme. After a while, they all become sluggish and disinterested in day to day stuff they used to love. They become flabby and all of that hits them psychologically since they pride themselves on fitness and their physique. TLDR while it might be fun for a little while to go on a binder, it would take a toll on your organs, your physique and quite possibly your mental state.

Answer

Well, if you've been considered "fit" for a long time, probably not too much, image-wise. You wouldn't magically get fatter like a cartoon character, so there's that. It also depends on how fit you are. If you're training like Michael Phelps did for the olympics, you're actually **below** what he was consuming...around 12,000 calories a day during peak Olympic training! So if you're a professional athlete, eating 10,000 calories in one day will probably have a minimal affect on you. Now, as for an average, 9-to-5 office worker who's in "good" shape, i.e. slightly above their optimal weight/height BMI and good cardiovascular shape with low blood pressure, probably not *too* much either. Our bodies are capable of some pretty amazing things. If you ate all that food throughout the course of the day, the most might be indigestion, upset stomach, and possible vomiting due to over-eating. You'll probably feel lethargic, maybe a headache due to the rush of too much sugar, etc. Basically you'd potentially feel kinda crappy. Actual detrimental effects? Probably minimal, depending on how much sugar/salt you had and whether or not you're diabetic or prone to high blood pressure. On average, bloated and yucky feeling, but otherwise probably okay. Disclaimer: I am not a doctor nor a nutritionist. Consult a doctor or nutritionist before consuming mass large quantities of food.

Answer

In the world of fitness, this is known as a "cheat day." A lot of bodybuilders and powerlifters diet this way. Well, maybe not 10,000 calories extra... but they can eat junk food. I eat really clean throughout the week and I measure all of my portions, count every gram of protein, carbs and fat I eat. Then, on the weekends, I can have pizza, ice cream, whatever I'm craving. I don't binge or go crazy like 10,000 calories, but I can have a couple extra slices of pizza without affecting my physique or my strength. Basically, it all evens out over the course of a week assuming you don't eat 10,000 calories every two days or something crazy like that. You cannot get fat or ruin your physique/strength in just one day the same way you cannot get a six-pack and huge muscles in one single day. Your body fat and muscle mass change over the course of weeks, months, and years. So, one single cheat day is not going to make a significant impact. A 10,000 calorie cheat day is a little different, you'd gain more fat than a usual cheat day, but normal humans don't eat that way all the time. This is all assuming you are a normal, healthy individual without any medical conditions. Obviously, if you have some pre-existing condition, it may not be quite so simple for you.

Answer

Doctor here, My suspicion is that not much would happen from a one day calorie binge. Given that we are talking about junk food, the most likely consequence is a temporary increase in weight via expansion of total body water due to the insane amounts of salt in low quality foods. I would also suspect that the subject would have some pretty serious diarrhea from the huge osmotic load that is being delivered to the small intestine.

Answer

You would look the same, possibly a little bloated the next day due to all the excess salt. Otherwise you would: A) shit a lot more i) possibly also diarrhea B) get really thirsty, drink more water, and subsequently pee a lot C) feel sluggish af D) want to food coma and just sleep Source: ate Wendy's, cake, chocolate, and pizza all day yesterday.

Answer

they would throw up and then prbly get the shits. If its just one day, your body is going to reject it because it is so different from your normal food intake. even if they didn't get sick, theyre still going to feel like shit for being overfull and filled with junk.

Answer

It's still calories in vs. calories out. 10,000 is a huge amount for one day but if you eat 2,000 the other 6 days and are doing enough exercise such that your total energy use is 23,000 calories that week you're still going to lose weight.

Answer

Only one day? You'll probably feel sick, but after you digest/vomit it all, no consequence is the likely outcome. The risk is not eating 10k calories once, but eating an extra thousand everyday

Answer

You can also check out the movie Super Size Me. I'm pretty sure it's still streaming on Netflix. It explains pretty much the same thing hillrat mentioned on Fit to Fat to Fit.

Answer

One day? A huge poop the next day, maybe a little stomach pain, maybe fatigue. Maybe a few oz of body fat built up.

Wikipedia article: Malnutrition

Malnutrition is a condition that results from eating a diet in which one or more nutrients are either not enough or are too much such that the diet causes health problems. It may involve calories, protein, carbohydrates, vitamins or minerals. Not enough nutrients is called undernutrition or undernourishment while too much is called overnutrition. Malnutrition is often used to specifically refer to undernutrition where an individual is not getting enough calories, protein, or micronutrients. If undernutrition occurs during pregnancy, or before two years of age, it may result in permanent problems with physical and mental development. Extreme undernourishment, known as starvation, may have symptoms that include: a short height, thin body, very poor energy levels, and swollen legs and abdomen. People also often get infections and are frequently cold. The symptoms of micronutrient deficiencies depend on the micronutrient that is lacking.

Why isn't the horror genre as respected as other film genres?

Output

Answer

Many horror films lack any kind of impactful storytelling. They often rely on gruesome visuals, jump-scares, and patently absurd plots. This cheapens the whole genre, and makes it harder for people to take them seriously. As you said, there are exceptions.

Answer

On top of other good reasons, I think it's because a large percentage of the population simply won't ever go watch one. I know lots of people who wouldn't go watch a horror movie if you paid them, mostly because they don't enjoy spending two hours having a movie scare the crap out of them.

Answer

Firstly, the premise is flawed - a list of horror films is going to include many of the greatest films ever made (Nosferatu, Jaws, Psycho, The Thing, The Shining, Deliverance, Alien, The Fly, Terminator I, Poltergeist) and with a list of venerable directors (Ridley Scott, Steven Spielberg, Stanley Kubrick, Alfred Hitchcock, Guillermo Del Toro, Roman Polanski, Francis Ford Coppola). Horror has also launched, revived, defined, or propelled a lot of careers - Bela Lugosi, Sigourney Weaver, Anthony Hopkins, Jeff Goldblum, Mia Farrow, etc). Here are a few reasons why you don't think of many horror films as prestigious: 1) Horror typically works best with unknown casts. This allows the cast to be picked off, piece by piece, without the star power exerting influence or giving the order of deaths away (Psycho subverts this by murdering the star early in the picture). 2) You don't think of a lot of great horror films as horror films, because they often overlap with other genres. Alien, Terminator, and The Thing overlap with sci-fi; Rebecca overlaps with Romance, others overlap with psychological thrillers. 3) Your preconceptions about the genre don't match the reality of that genre. Again, look at that list of films - holy shit, those are great films! I'm guessing when you think "horror" you think "b-grade slasher flick" or "monster attack". You could do this to any genre, though - the romantic comedy is either The Apartment, or it's a Heigl disaster; the movie musical can be West Side Story or Mamma Mia. 4) Horror films are very cheap. Done right, they usually need very little budget, small casts, few names, and thus are a great proving ground for new filmmakers. This results in way more shitty, low-grade horror films in distribution than shitty, low-grade historical epics.

Answer

Because it's usually a budget flick, uncompelling story, and cheap scare tactics instead of an actual dark story. I don't like it because it's very predictable and nothing memorable. The characters all act stupid and make the worst decisions just to keep the movie going for 2 hours. The only scary thing about the movie is the sound going from dead silent to stupid loud. That pretty much described most horror movies.

Answer

Horror movies and action movies are both seen in similar ways - they're not made to be an engrossing or beautiful story with complex characters and deep themes. They're just built to thrill you. Action movies usually do this in a more expensive way with explosions and car chases, and horror movies tend to be a bit more low-budget, thrilling you with jump scares and gore. Neither of those really lends itself to good storytelling, but every once in a while, there's an exception and you end up with a real classic. For horror, that would be movies like Nightmare on Elm Street or the original Saw, both of were unique and interesting stories even without the splatter, and which influenced dozens of films after.

Answer

Because, by virtue of being included in the genre, it's kind of assumed that they are just leveraging one emotion for the entire film: Fear. There are plenty of other movies that have parts that can be plenty scary, but that also have more going on in the plot. Take, for example, *Silence of the Lambs*, or *Frailty*, or *Alien*, or *Terminator*. None of those movies are considered "horror" movies, but there's plenty of *killing for the sake of killing* going on, as well as constant mortal threat to the protagonists. But in films like those, there is also, generally, a question greater than "am I going to live or die." Once the plot becomes any more complicated than, "sorority girl tries to escape," people don't really call it a "horror film" anymore...

Answer

You've heard of Troll 2 and the Scarecrow series, yes?

Answer

While I think that the current top comment by /u/o0joshua0o is the closet to summing things up (others have added a few solid points as well), there is still something missing. I'll try to best explain my point in a way fitting to ELI5, though this might lead to a fairly long post. The short of it is this: scaring people is easy. It isn't that the story is lacking impact or that it relies on gruesome visuals or jump-scares. If the goal of a story (a book, a movie, etc.) is to scare and it manages to do just that, then it has made a solid impact. This can be anything from the many kid-friendly campfire stories about men with hooks for hands to various urban legends or creepypastas about sleep experiments to novels about a father and husband who struggles to be a good man while dealing with his personal demons (that also happens to have a popular film adaptation that completely misses the point). Storytelling is all about the manipulation of the audience. It is like a magic act. But rather than having an audience who wants to believe an elephant can really disappear then reappear, a storyteller has an audience that wants their emotions manipulated for the purpose of entertainment. Whether it involves making them laugh, cry, or fear for their own well-being is not entirely irrelevant though it is most important that they at least feel *something* during the performance. And a good storyteller will manage to illicit at least one or more of even the most basic emotional responses all without the audience being actively aware that they are being manipulated. An audience wants to believe in the illusion. They know the story you're telling them isn't real, or at the very least isn't actually taking place at that very moment. It involves words on a page, or a man sitting at a campfire, or actors on a stage. A bad storyteller will rely heavily on familiarity to get their point across. A reused joke. A familiar plot and twist. Cliches that are meant to act as emotional shorthand, like putting a mother and child inside a burning building. The whole "showing, not telling" thing you often hear in writing courses or in threads like those in /r/books. The audience is, at that point, doing all the emotional work. They have to make all those connections. That music means something exciting is happening. The fat guy fell down so I need to laugh at his being fat and clumsy. Or, back to my previous example, that mother and child are in danger so I should feel concern for their safety. Shorthand is fine. And reusing old material is as well. But it's all in the execution. Anyone can reference an old Simpson's gag or quote Airplane (just look at all the reposts on reddit or anywhere else for proof of that). But not everyone can make people actually laugh at it the same way they had the first time they saw or heard it. If any laughter happens at all, it's more because they fondly recall that original moment. And this is getting to what I mean by "scaring people is easy". Comedy, generally speaking, is really hard. Getting a genuine laugh from people is a lot of work. Timing, delivery. To take a very basic observation and present it in such a way that gets a crowd to snort and chuckle is a quest unto itself. A bad joke or weak delivery can stink up the house real quick. Drama is the same way. A combination of a solid performance of at least passable material is required to illicit a positive response from the audience. Stilted line delivery can suck any and all emotion out of a romantic scene between lovers. Cringe-worthy dialog can lead even the most tense moment into melodrama and result in laughs from an audience. Even action requires a strong understanding of framing, editing, pacing in addition to solid choreography. An action scene is a story unto itself. The fight. The chase, be it toward a goal or away from an antagonist. It's a story within a story. And a poorly shot action sequence will not keep an audience on the edge of their seats. Weak stunt work will not get them to cheer. A poorly framed or edited punch will look fake and break the illusion. But scaring people is easy. We're all afraid of something. We all are hardwired to feel things like anxiety and stress. And to trigger such things isn't hard because it involves primitive responses to stimuli that have kept us alive generation after generation. This is why a jump scare will work on many if not most people. A video with a sudden, disturbing image and a loud audio cue is no different to the human brain than a wolf jumping out of the bushes. Horror doesn't necessarily require an emotional response so much as it does a physical and chemical response. Empathy with any of Freddy's victim isn't required to enjoy A Nightmare on Elm Street. Stilted delivery won't necessarily detract from the gore or jump scare. So long as your nervous system is lighting up and your body is flooded with things like adrenaline, the scene or story works just fine. This is why a lot of storytellers, a lot of filmmakers can cut their teeth with horror and transition to something else. All the basic ingredients are there for a good movie. Lighting. Music. Framing. It's an entry level attempt at all the emotional manipulation required in dramas and comedy. But the bar is set so low for an effective horror movie that even a weak effort can be seen as a success. Low-budgets also help convince studios to take risks on inexperienced talent. A lot of directors and actors started off in horror. Dementia 13 was one of Francis Ford Coppola's first directing jobs. Spielberg made a name for himself with Jaws. That [guy]( URL_5 ) who helped bring one of the most successful superhero franchises of all time to the big screen started off making a no-budget horror flick with his brother and big-chinned friend where a tree rapes a girl. And the dude with the two highest grossing films of [all time]( URL_3 ) started off making a sequel to a movie about killer fish, then did a movie about a killer robot, and then did a sequel about killer aliens before doing a movie about a killer robot fighting another killer robot. Not to mention the likes of actors like [Johnny Depp]( URL_1 ), [Jennifer Connelly]( URL_11 ), [Kevin Bacon]( URL_12 ), and [Crispin Glover]( URL_6 ) who all got early breaks in horror. Or even established talent that find themselves diving into (or even returning to) horror like [Gary Oldman]( URL_7 ), [Frank Langella]( URL_10 ), [Willem Dafoe]( URL_8 ), and [Sir Ian McKellen]( URL_2 ). Scaring people is easy. And even the most [mundane]( URL_4 ), [uneventful] ( URL_0 ), [low-reaching]( URL_9 ) horror films can become runaway successes. It isn't the talent involved. It isn't the story failing to make an impact. It's that anyone with a camera and a few friends can make it happen and garner some attention. Of course, like all other genres it takes a lot of work and effort and talent to master the horror genre. So few names have managed to do it compared to others. When everyone can be scared, when we all share so many of the same fears, it takes a real creative mind to present something so daringly unsettling that it not only perseveres for years to come but also illicit the same emotional response. King, Barker, Lovecraft, Poe, Romero, Craven, Hooper, Carpenter, and so many others have mastered the genre. Some stick around and love to play in the same sandbox time and again. Others move on to the next challenge, maybe returning now and then when the mood strikes them. It isn't that horror isn't respected. It's that scaring people isn't hard. Keeping people afraid is. And so few manage to do it just right.

Answer

There's a bit of a problem with the horror genre, and this problem is the writing. How many horror movies do you know that are genuinely scary purely because of the writing? There are a few, but not many. All the other movies depend on gruesome visuals, "scary" music and maybe a jumpscare here and there to keep you on the edge of your seat, but these are all easily picked apart gimmicks. I think there's a movie called mama or mother or something which I saw a while ago with friends of mine, despite being drunk and an easily frightened baby it just didn't do anything for me. The premise was stupid at best in my opinion, the scares were easily predictable, the music was cliché. It was a decent movie by all means but it was just so standard and come on: Do we trust hollywood to make a movie that is unconventional and doesn't follow a predetermined checklist? These are the movies that make the best horror but they are a risk and Hollywood doesn't take risks.

Answer

Honestly, I think it's because fear is a deeply personal, uncomfortable feeling for a lot of people. When a film attempts to frighten you and it fails, it's easy to feel insulted. When a film attempts to frighten people and succeeds, they don't always enjoy it. People often compare sense of fear to sense of humor, inasmuch as there's a certain amount of compulsion to it. You don't choose to laugh and you don't choose to be afraid. You just respond to the stimulus you're taking in, and the reaction is involuntary. Beyond that, even among horror fans, there's a lot of variance. Some people like torture porn, some people are all about jump scares, some people just want to see badass monsters, and then you've got guys like me who prefer to be scared long after the movie is over, when the plot or characters linger in the back of your mind.

Answer

I thought the premise of The Purge was incredibly wasted. It's interesting, brings out the worst in people, and just bleeds suspense. But then they go and lock the family in the house and then it's a simple home invasion horror story. If they had done something such as a family going camping far away and losing track of time before the Purge, realize the date, and then have them flee terrible people while trying to get back home to safety - that would have been something worth watching.

Answer

For an example, look at the horror movie "You're Next". Mild spoilers will follow, but nothing significant. So, this family is getting attacked while they're eating dinner, from outside the house, and their plan is to let their daughter sprint barefoot out of the house in hopes of like... I dunno, running and getting help or something? And no character in that movie stops and says "Hey, this is fucking stupid. Seriously." She sprints out the door and garrotes herself on a wire in the door frame, and everyone is like "Oh man, who would've thought her running unarmed into the area where our assailants are, with no foot protection in the woods would've ended tragically!?" Some can absolutely argue that You're Next is a healthy dose of tongue in cheek, but like Shawn of the Dead, it's poking fun at it's brethren. It's hard for critics and stuff to accept horror movies as legitimate story telling devices when you have movies like The Strangers, wherein the bad guys do things that the protagonists never actually notice that immediately reminds your brain that you're watching a movie. Horror films are typically pretty cheap to produce, and ever since the Blair Witch Project, they've gotten cheaper, to the point where we can all enjoy "Skype, the horror movie" this weekend.. BWP made absolute bank because it was full of no names. Paranormal activity, Saw, all of them lack pretty significant names, in order to save more on money. And finally, horror movies are polarizing. Myself and my wife love to watch them, but none of my friends do. They hate horror movies, they hate how the movies make them feel, even when the movie is blatantly not scary (this is subjective, but for me it's movies such as the aforementioned You're Next and The Strangers). Why spend a lot of money and effort when you have giant swathes of people who write it off instantly because they don't like horror?

Answer

Because the bulk of horror has more in common with pornography than with regular cinema. What I mean is, there is a tendency in the genre to set up a scenario *just* enough to get the horror going and then it coasts on cheap scares and senseless gore until the end. It relies on a loose plot whose only purpose is to get the audience some standard-issue thrills. That's not to say that there aren't great horror films, because by god there really are some amazing ones, but that the pornographic aspect of horror tends to not only taint the perception of the genre, but also bleed into the rest of the genre itself. People become so accustomed with *that* being horror that they feel ripped off when they go to the theater and that's not what they see. Think the "that wasn't even scary" crowd. As a result you either get amazing movies that fall under the radar or movies that, because they are so "good" are not considered horror. As an example of this I would use "Black Swan". One could make a solid argument for it being a horror movie in the purest sense. But few consider it as such. Because it's "good", and horror is "bad". And because horror has jump scares and dim lighting. So my answer I guess is that the genre is a vicious cycle turned on itself.

Answer

It can be argued that Horror is a genre which doesn't need to be respected in order to be successful, so horror movies don't always go for that. They are usually cheap to make and have a niche audience that they don't have to really try new things with to entertain. Lack of originality and creativity also seem to be an issue. Creativity generally arises in new methods of being gory (which seems to be heavily looked down upon) and many horror films carry a negative mark of exploitation. Horror movies which are considered respected either try new things and play with a formula (like Cabin in the Woods or Scream) or are layered with other genre's (like how Silence of the Lambs is a "thriller" despite following the slasher film formula very closely). There's also just a general public and critical misunderstanding and prejudice which I actually think is a big issue. When Psycho and Peeping Tom were first released they were ostracized for exploiting violence, but later reviews and rewatching over the years people start saying that they are masterpieces of film making. Film critics often struggle to tell the difference between exploitation and art I guess? Turning up big money ties back to my point of it being niche. Horror is successful because its cheap, big budget includes big risks which studios don't generally want to go for. A lot of fans would love a big budget movie, especially if its a crossover work, like an Avengers for Horror movies.

Answer

I'd say it has something to do with the fact that it's the hardest genre to do well (and that's not hyperbole, I assert that horror is the *most* difficult genre). It's incredibly difficult to make a scary film, and the nuances that make it possible can also be prohibitive towards other aspects of good film making. It's hard to tell a story, and maintain good suspenseful pacing, and foster a tone that speaks to the fears of your audience all at the same time. As a result: a lot of B-movies are horrors/ thrillers, which may have degraded respect for the genre over the years. It's too bad really, B-movies are one of my favorite categories of film, and deserver more respect in my opinion. More people should give them the appreciation they deserve (I am of course talking about *good* B-movies: the Room, anything directed by Peter Jackson, Shrooms, etc).

Answer

Because horror cliches with rare exceptions are just plain stupid. Like why does the bad stuff always happen in the dark?... are you telling me angry ghosts can't haunt during the day? There's that movie Fear Dot Com that was dark EVERYWHERE, even inside the police station... so many other cliches as well, like the old open up the mirror to take something out of the medicine cabinet, close it to find a murderer standing behind you in the reflection... There's only a few movies that come to mind as horror done well. Alien, The Shining, The Blair Witch Project, The Ring... probably a couple more I can't think of at the moment.

Answer

There was a time when high caliber actors did films like that. Jack Nicholson was 22 years past his first real movie credit when he told Wendy he wouldn't hurt her if she'd just give him the bat. Those exceptions aside, as someone pointed out, horror films generally depend on either fear or women in skimpy clothing who make stupid decisions, often while babysitting someone else's kids in someone else's home. That sort of discourages actors with pride from taking those roles.

Answer

I've learned to read between the lines of rating scores. Sites like Rotten Tomatoes are never going to give a horror film much above a 7. So realistically, anything over 5 might be worth looking into. With regular movies it's more like anything above a 7 might be worth seeing.

Answer

Silence of the Lambs was respected. It just takes a film with good writing, and most horror films don't put much effort into the plot/dialogue.

Answer

Recent exception... The Conjuring. Really slick cinematography, real scares and an insane climax. Also, has anyone checked out Housebound?

Answer

Show me a horror movie with a deep subplot beyond "run away and die a bunch".

Answer

Because most of the horror films are absurdly overdone cliches.

Answer

It's easy to make a horror film but difficult to make a good one. Many horrors tend to stick very tight to their foundations and often stick to their respective audiences, in recent years I've found myself looking for foreign horrors such as french extremism to get a good one. But i'd say the main reason is too few horrors try to break conventions or they purposefully do it and make sure you know about it. A cabin in the woods is a good horror for me as it explains this very by just being as it shows everything that is good and bad about horror. Quite often if i watch one with the misses it's all about the one with the brutal kills and the messed up stuff, i try to watch a proper horror and she finds it boring which leads on to the next point. Many film critics just don't know how to review it, horror critics will do it as a horror whilst film critics try to place it as an action or comedy, failing that they will attempt to extract deeper meaning from a horror when one may just not exist; Sometimes all a good horror needs is a psycho with an axe, no we do not care about why, no we do not want a trilogy that explains their motivations, we just want to see some nudity and teens getting killed. So in summary I'd place it to convention overtaking the story, a deeper story means drifting from the horror elements too much which the audience may find boring. therefore story often gets put aside for the horror elements which means classical reviewers may struggle to fit the film to their method of marking; it's like giving an expert on fine wines a bottle of exclusive locally produced ale and expecting a review, yes it's alcohol but not quite a fine Bordeaux

Answer

The same traits of horror movies that are used in EVERYTHING (ex. jump scares is the main one, excess blood, running from stuff, etc.) have been used time and time again for decades. It's no wonder that these movies have burnt out so quickly; so few of them are actually memorable or good anymore, and a lot of them end up being super cheesy and weird (I remember when I watched Cabin in the Woods, it was good to start but then by the end I was like . . . what?). I'm a fan of psychological thrillers myself. These tend to be a lot more horrifying than actual "horror" movies, as they play with your thoughts and really make you think about stuff. Some of my favorite darker psychological films are those of Darren Aronofsky (Requiem for a Dream, Pi). I also really liked the Cube films (kinda obscure trilogy, but pretty good films). Last House on the Left is also a good thriller. Everything else these days, in the pure sense of "horror", without bringing thriller into it, tends to just be "social media is evil!" and "oh no there's a murderer in town!" Kinda depressing to see that horror movies haven't changed much since the 20th century.

Answer

It's true that there haven't been many good high budget horror movies recently, but there are LOTS of low budget/indie or foreign productions that are actually very clever, with great storytelling, acting and effects. Martyrs is an excellent example of a film that can be extremely brutal, terrifying and gruesome, but it's also incredibly smart in its social commentary. Lake Mungo is another unknown gem that explores and analyzes the concept of grief through a pretty scary ghost story. A Tale of Two Sisters is another amazing "horror" movie with similar themes... And I could go on. As for why the horror genre in general isn't more respected, I'd say it's pretty obvious. Most people who watch horror movies just want to be scared or grossed out. They want to see stupid people get their well deserved gruesome deaths, they want to see scary ghosts jump at them, get their adrenaline rush and leave. They don't want to feel bad, to actually *think* about death, grief, and all those other heavy themes that a clever horror movie would include. It's just much easier to produce and sell a movie that's basically 100% blood/jumpscares.

Answer

Horror as a genre is respected. Hitchcock is brilliant, as well as most other classic film makers. However, the horror genre today is less about plot and more about blood and guts or just how crazy the bad guy is because he's probably killing for no reason. It's not just the horror genre. Comedy has gone so far downhill, it's all dick and fart jokes followed by nutshots. Don't believe me? What was the last action film you so that wasn't totally ridiculous? Drama just gets respect for not seeming so juvenile and musicals get respect for being able to tell a story with song. What's really gripping about horror and comedy is that it hits us on such a basic level. The beauty in the cinematic art form though is to still touch upon those essential emotions while still making us feel more. Taking us on a journey. Too many movies just cash in on the lowest form of entertainment they can without trying for anything greater, and that's sad.

Answer

Why don't studios ever invest big money into horror films? --- Because, in large part, horror films these days tend to be made on gore and shock value, not on writing. Very rarely does a horror film both play to your visceral fears AND feature good writing. When it does, it's a unicorn. (Paranormal Activity had me sleeping with the lights on for months but was SO BRILLIANT.) Why don't high caliber actors/directors/writers get involved in horror films that often? -- Because most horror films in the industry suck, and horror tends to equal pulp, which isn't always that good, though I fondly do love pulp stuff.

Answer

different movies genres are trying to evoke different emotions(reactions from viewers) so horror movies try to make you scared action movies display adrenaline junkies pornographic movies want to evoke your lust Big movies use a mix of different genres. so you might need to combine a love scene with an action scene and there will probably be a lot of drama too. the more complex the emotions displayed in movies the more difficult they are to make and the more acclaimed they are. hope that makes sense for you.

Answer

It's the genre that's possibly saturated with cliches that we've seen in horror movies. Very few directors go beyond their boundaries and the ones you've mentioned were all pioneering films in the horror genre. A side note, if you haven't seen It Follows yet, be sure to check it out.

Answer

It really does come down to less originality and more non-intelligent motifs in most cases. On an opinion note, where's all the love for Saw? Probably one of the best horror movies I ever saw, especially since it was on that low of a budget.

Answer

Those movies are more like thrillers than actual horror movies. Thrillers typically do better than horror movies because they don't so much focus on people dying. Horror movies are more about gore than anything. The only exception that I know of is the original Exorcist.

Answer

A lot of my friends ask me "why the fuck would you show me this movie" that's why. I'd like to think horror buffs are just as unique and weird as me.... and because of that unpopular.

Answer

I'm curious, is there a genre that is more respected than others? Documentaries maybe? Or are you lumping all genres together and saying that horror is generally less respected than all others together?

Answer

Newer horror films that I found are the exception to the 'stupid plotline, stupid decisions, stupid everything' (if sometimes ironically) complaints: You're Next Housebound The House of the Devil

Answer

In general, people seem to enjoy being sad more than scared. To me, that mindset is counterproductive and disgusting - much like how they probably view mine.

Answer

Because horror is incompatible with polite society, and thus is looked down upon as inferior or unworthy compared to "serious" works.

Provenance

Wikipedia article: Motion Picture Association of America film rating system

The Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) film rating system is used in the United States and its territories to rate a film's suitability for certain audiences based on its content. The MPAA rating system is a voluntary scheme that is not enforced by law; films can be exhibited without a rating, although certain theaters refuse to exhibit non-rated or NC-17 rated films. Non-members of MPAA may also submit films for rating. Other media, such as television programs, music and video games, are rated by other entities such as the TV Parental Guidelines, the RIAA and the ESRB, respectively.

Film criticism is the analysis and evaluation of films and the film medium. The concept is often used interchangeably with that of film reviews. A film review implies a recommendation aimed at consumers, however not all film criticism takes the form of reviews.

Input

How is it that the human brain/body sometimes wakes up seconds before an alarm goes off?!

Output

Answer

Your body does have internal regulation mechanisms, I'm not a doctor and there are plenty who are who can talk more intelligently about the circadian rhythm of the body etc. The other component is psychological. What's happening is an example of confirmation bias. You've woken up a few times almost on the clock (relative to the total number of days you've ever slept in your life). Though this number is astronomical low, you only remember the times you did wake up on the minute. You bias yourself to count those times and subconsciously ignore the other times and thus you feel as though you have an ability to wake up on time. This also happens when people think that they can catch when people are looking at them. You sometimes do and sometimes don't, but the times you don't are not out of the ordinary so you forget them. Thus you only remember catching them and get a false sense of confirmation.

Answer

Do you have a set schedule, like you wake up at the same time every day?

Answer

I think it's pretty funny the top response is essentially saying you aren't experiencing the very subject of your query. It could be a variety of things, because your brain isn't completely 'off' just because you're asleep. We have a sense of time in addition to the five main senses, and it would be more beneficial to complete your current sleep cycle instead of being jarred awake by the alarm. When following a regular schedule this also occurs more often, especially if you're reaction to the alarm is frequently described as a deep hatred. Waking up at 6am every day, I experienced the same situation of getting up immediately before back when my alarm was ridiculously annoying. It felt a lot better pre-emptively shutting it off than having it interrupt my restful slumber.

Answer

I will posit that in light sleep you are aware of what is going on around you (e.g. if baby cries you will wake up) However you are constantly forgetting what you are sensing within seconds, so that when you wake you have no memories of the sleep. However if you are awoken by the alarm, you will have a memory of the seconds before the alarm, as the awakening stops the forgetting process, and so you feel you are already awake before the alarm (even though you are not) I hope this makes some sort of sense

Answer

I can tell myself to wake up at a certain time and I will wake up at that time. I think "Wake up at six" when I lay down and I will wake up at six. Might be along those lines for you also.

Answer

May somebody stop saying "our bodies have an inbuilt clock" and rather give a bit more precise argument or answer on the issue. Please.

Answer

Coincidence mixed with how long a sleep cycle is. A sleep cycle is roughly 70-90 minutes. At the end of each sleep cycle it's much easier to wake up. It's often why you feel so alert after waking up from a dream, dreams take place in the 1st stage REM and 4th stage rem (the first and last stages of a sleep cycle). Example Time: Ok so you go to bed at 10 and have an alarm set at 7. I'll call the 20 min leeway at the end of sleep cycles the Wakeup Zone (WZ). This is where your body is doing all sorts of fun stuff with histamine to regulate your sleep pattern and also where you're most likely to wakeup because its at the tail end of a sleep cycle. (Fun fact: OTA sleep drugs are just high doses of allergy meds (anti-histamines) to prevent you from waking up more often through the night.) Cycle 1. 10:00 - 11:30pm (11:10pm - 11:30pm WZ) Cycle 2. 11:30 - 1:00pm (12:40am - 1:00am WZ) Cycle 3. 1:00am - 2:30am (2:10am - 2:30am WZ) Cycle 4. 2:30am - 4:00am (3:40am - 4:00am WZ) Cycle 5. 4:00am - 5:30am (5:10am - 5:30am WZ) Cycle 6. 5:30am - 7:00am (6:40am - 7:00am WZ) Chances are you aren't really fully rested during cycles 1-4 so the likelihood of spontaneously waking up in the WZ is lower. Between 5-6 however, chances are much greater. Couple that with coincidence and you have the anomaly you describe. You only notice the time because you have an alarm set for it. In that last sleep cycle you're odds of waking up 1 minute before the alarm is 1/20. Note: This is heavily simplified, WZ is not a scientific term an its a bit more complicated than this. But at a high-level its pretty close. Source: Engineer that worked on devices/algorithms that use EEG measure activity in your brain during these periods.

Answer

The cerebellum actually contains mechanisms for rather precise timing, and several systems allow the circadian rhythm to be maintained. For example, some optic nerves route directly to the limbic system rather than the visual cortex. So background light levels can trigger wake-up. This is part of the reason why you might wake up the same time every sunny day but later on overcast days. Similar conditioning can occur with temperature, auditory input, etc. The other answers are surprising in how much they have no fucking clue what they're talking about. It's amazing.

Answer

Because that's the one time you remember. It's a bias - there are plenty of times when you're sort-of, almost half-awake, but you forget about those because you go back to deeper sleep. But when that happens right before your alarm goes off, you get fully woken up by the alarm. And then, you remember "waking up" right before the alarm. This gets more likely the more regular your schedule is.

Answer

I wake up several times every night, look at my clock, then go back to bed. I usually wake up a few minutes before my alarm goes off but it's bound to happen because of how often I wake up anyway. I can't imagine going to bed and not waking up until my alarm goes off. Maybe you wake up a lot and only remember the last time?

Answer

Just today I had my alarm set for 8:00. Woke up scared that my alarm didn't go off or that I had slept through it. Since I had to be somewhere. Looked at phone. 7:59

Provenance

Wikipedia article: Sleep

Today, many humans wake up with an alarm clock; however, people can also reliably wake themselves up at a specific time with no need for an alarm. Many sleep quite differently on workdays versus days off, a pattern which can lead to chronic circadian desynchronization. Many people regularly look at television and other screens before going to bed, a factor which may exacerbate disruption of the circadian cycle. Scientific studies on sleep have shown that sleep stage at awakening is an important factor in amplifying sleep inertia.

why is the Nazi flag taboo, but Confederate flag "culture"?

Output

Answer

Only people who fly the confederate flag think it's appropriate. The rest of us go "Ah, you're one of them" and then sit somewhere else.

Answer

Because the Nazi atrocities did not occur over a long enough time span for it to become culture, plus the US has a really strong freedom of speech protection. You can, in fact, fly a Nazi flag if you really wanted to deal with the fallout (fallout not related to the legal system) That, and people are morons.

Answer

Well for one, nobody likes the Confederate flag. That's something you only see in super south states and usually flown by fucking morons. Secondly; the Confederates didn't set up extermination camps and slaughter millions of innocents.
