that can be realized in the Doepfer. Combining patching on the computer screen and in real life on the same time was also easier then I thought. In fact, it is as intuitive as working with the G2 or the real analogue itself.

The same midi out that feed the 12 channels of CV and gate in the Doepfer MCV24 interface can also control other gear. So I use my older Clavia Nord Modular and Micro Modular as six extra VCOs, as well as an old sampler and a Roland XV 2020 sound module. The possibilities of sound creation become very big.

I could have built the system simply on sound modules, just to get the true analogue sound, but wanted to have some analogue CV processing in the modularBlogs

Alec Baldwin Named SAG Foundation Ambassador

In the new position, the "30 Rock" actor will raise awareness about the foundation's philanthropic efforts.

Alec Baldwin has been named SAG Foundation Ambassador, a new position designed to draw attention to the national non-profit organization.

His appointment was announced Monday by SAG Foundation president JoBeth Williams.

In his new post, Baldwin will be charged with raising awareness within the acting community about the Foundation, which was founded in 1985, and its philanthropic efforts while also encouraging contributions from the general public.

The neuronal growth-associated protein B-50/GAP-43 is a substrate for protein kinase C, binds to calmodulin in a calcium-independent manner, and in vitro is subject to an endogenous and chymotrypsin-mediated hydrolysis in the vicinity of the single kinase C phosphorylation site. All of these processes can be influenced by corticotrophin (ACTH). In the present study we have investigated whether these biochemical interactions involving B-50 could have common structural determinants. Chymotryptic digestion of B-50 in the presence or absence of a nonionic detergent and ACTH demonstrated that hydrolysis is potentiated by a lipid-like environment that primarily affects the protein rather than the protease or the peptide. Furthermore, this lipid dependency appears to extend to the binding of dephosphorylated B-50


in the Ptolemaic star catalogue, he saw that rather than being cloudy, they were made of many small stars. From this he deduced that the nebulae and the Milky Way were "congeries of innumerable stars grouped together in clusters" too small and distant to be resolved into individual stars by the naked eye.

In the last part of Sidereus Nuncius, Galileo reported his discovery of four objects that appeared to form a straight line of stars near Jupiter. On the first night he detected a line of three little stars close to Jupiter parallel to the ecliptic; the following nights brought different arrangements and another star into his view, totalling four stars around Jupiter.

Some questions about mapping

Hi, I have some little questions about mapping:

I want to make someone like this guy outside the house, I make it for scaring players, And I want this guy to move his hands, is it possible to make this?

You can make the face a func_train and put it on a track in a room you can't get into. Have just one of the path_track points be inside the map where you want it to show up. It can teleport if you don't want to see itCourtney Martin on The O’Reilly Factor

I am appalled and genuinely upset by the way O’Reilly refused to listen, interrupted, and insulted any viewpoint that was not his own or that rightfully tried to educate his sexist ageist speech. However, I am more awed by Martin’s patience, intelligence, and bad-ass passion than appalled by O’Reilly’s fallacies.

The Women’s Media Center cannot come down on Saturday Night Live for mocking Sarah Palin! As Courtney Martin pointed out, SNL mocks both sides. It’s what they do.

That being said, even if SNL mocked only Leftist women, O’Reilly is still wrong about the reasons behind the mocking of Palin. She was not mocked by SNL (or any other show) for her mannerisms. Her mannerisms were part of Tina Fey’s impersonation just like Bill Clinton’s

As of Monday afternoon the park board had received 135 emails in support of the motion, and one that suggested switching to using rakes and push mowers.

The consideration of Monday’s motion coincided with commissioners receiving a report from the University of B.C.’s Greenest City Scholars program.

still lightyears away from the casual sex attitudes which evolved out of the hippy era.

When experiences lose their luster we lose our ability to place value in them.

Overindulgence is the quickest way to passive nihilism because it is the quickest method of stripping something down to it's unfulfilling essence. Anything positive that could have been derived from the experience becomes harder and harder to identify the more it becomes a means to pleasure and less to anything .

I was disciplined by my family and the church I grew up in to see chastity as a crucial means of avoiding the "wide gate and broad road that leads to destruction". It was a good lesson that I'm glad I was subject to, despite some of the techniques used fordo like spreading my seed. I should add that contraceptives are incredibly important in this regard, as well as not fucking the first person you find. It is more rewarding to me to find a woman who I respect and then have sex with her; in this way my perception of women is not dulled down to the point of viewing them as walking vaginas.

I should also say that this is purely my worldview, and I don't expect most ANUSians to agree with it.

Actually no. When he quoted the article as saying at the beginning "I'll take a different path: Experience numbs" I thought the word "experience" was used as a verb, encouraging us to experience numbness to become numb to numbness itself in a sort of transcendent


is that "excess pleasure" refers to that which has ceased to be pleasurable, so it really isn't pleasure at all, it's not as if pleasure took a wrong turn late at night on Los Angeles blvd and got into the ol cycle from one of those 'gateway drugs'.

Either way, our goal here - the goal of not only all humans, but all life, perhaps down to the atom - is in seeking a full experience of existence. This noted "Hedonistic" behaviour is a running away from pain as much as a running towards pleasure. However, it is a movement in the opposite direction from breaking the cycle of inactivity, of lifelessness. What we need is movement to the side of Life and Death, not non-Life.

In my view theto destruction". It was a good lesson that I'm glad I was subject to, despite some of the techniques used for teaching it.

In my view, novelty is a cheap thrill. Perhaps for more right-hand path individuals there is something to be said for every day 'being a new day' as they say, I"ll have to give that some thought. It's true there's something called addiction or obsession, when you get distracted from your state of awareness, usually to maintain suppression and denial of difficult life events, by overly-attaching yourself to certain ideas / activities. And it's true an important distinction should be made between the superficiality of novelty and the profound reverence expressed in the adage of living each day like it were your last. But you can


of the same path, i.e. the path of perfect good. Thus, when one part of you pulls you in one direction, and another part in the other direction, there is something not good about the situation. Either this is a flaw in the external situation, in your internal processing, or in the alignment between the two. That is, it will be a result of lack of justice in the individual, or lack of justice in the system within which the individual is an actor.

I do a lot of intellectual work, and I have proved in myself how beneficial abstinence can be. After >14 days of withdrawal from all sexual activities, my nerves take only a few minutes to recover themselves even after a whole day of intense mentalsociety, if your evolutionary modality (like my left-leaning one) is for instance particularly rebellious or defiant and poorly compatible with the modern world; as the adage goes it's not a symptom of mental health to be well-adjusted to an insane society, and as much as tantra is a very fine art I'd argue it's a skill to ride some lower-level righteous indignation now and then.

It was not an exaggeration, believe me. The amount of energy that is concentrated in the sexual impulse is astonishing, and could be channelled with some effort into other purposes. It seems counter-intuitive, I know, seeing that this power is contained in just a small volume of semen.

I heard much about tantra, but most of it seem like bollocks to me. All pleasures in


WATER MAR K Boat Buying Bonanza Forecast In Brisbane The Boating Industry Association of Queensland (BIAQ) says the recent Australian Federal Budget should boost boat sales at the Brisbane Boat Show from 30 August to 3 September. "There is no doubt the Federal Budget left a boat-buying bonanza in its wake," said Barry Hibberd, BIAQ general manager, in a statement reported by IBI. "While the Australian dollar remains strong, new imports continue to come into the country and new models are being produced locally, giving the public its biggest choice of boats ever." Hibberd said that boating registrations for June, a month after the budget was passed, rose about 10 per cent compared to the same month a year earlier. He said a strong economy has helped fuel'Alright. Camille and Bill Cosby.

photoionization by interstellar UV photons, gives $N_{FEB} \sim 10^{11}$ cm$^{-2}$, which should easily be produced by infalling comets like the ones giving rise to the variable [($^{3}$P)]{} components in our data. However, this is a rough treatment and the number of infalling comets per year varies significantly over time scales of a few years [@vid98]. Also, this treatment does not take into account reformation of  by radiative recombination; we cannot take this process into account properly without knowledge of the amount of in the CS disk and the electron density.

Considering the [($^{1}$D)]{}, when such atoms are produced by photodissociation of CO, ($^{1}$D) atoms must be produced also to conserve spin. The minimum total photon energy needed for this dissociation is 14.33 eV, corresponding to a threshold wavelength of 865times in a disappointing playoff debut. He finished with 235 yards passing with a touchdown and an interception.

The Colts, who opened the season 1-5, continued an impressive run by winning their fifth straight and for the 10th time in 11 games. It was another good game in a splendid season for Luck. He threw for 4,593 yards and 39 touchdowns in the regular season after missing all of 2017 with a shoulder injury.

In Saturday’s later game, Ezekiel Elliott rushed for 137 yards and the go-ahead touchdown in the fourth quarter, and the Dallas Cowboys hung on for a 24-22 win over the Seattle Seahawks.

The playoff win by the Cowboys was the first for Elliott and quarterback Dak Prescott on their second try after losing a divisional game as


rookies two years ago. Dallas will play either New Orleans or the Los Angeles Rams in the divisional round next weekend.

The loss ended a run of nine straight victories in playoff openers for the Seahawks. The Elias Sports Bureau says it was the longest streak in NFL history. Dallas’ defense, ranked in the top 10 most of the season, mostly kept quarterback Russell Wilson under control and handed him his first loss in four wildcard games.

fine particles in a resin covering layer of a carrier particle to control an electric resistance of the carrier and enhance developability.

However, when such a resin covering layer is abraded or exfoliated, resin powder is obtained. The resin powder is colored by carbon black and hence stains images.

and repeatedly violated her privacy at work and home." (Compl. ¶ 9.) Damon sent email "tirades" to Bodman's work account, sometimes several times a day, even after she requested for him to stop. (Compl. ¶ 10.) Bodman's efforts to cease relations with Damon were "complicated" by the fact that "Damon's work required him to frequent ... Bodman's place of business." (Compl. ¶ 8.) On November 5, 2007, Bodman sought and obtained a temporary Protection from Abuse Order ("PFA") against Damon ordering him to cease all contact with her. After a full hearing, the temporary PFA became permanent on December 28, 2007.
Bodman informed Maine DHHS of both Damon's conduct as well as her efforts to secure the PFA. Maine DHHS made some initial, but unsuccessful, attempts to protect herthe Court to examine the specific conduct alleged in order to determine whether improper gender bias could be inferred. Id. at 229. The Forrest Court concluded that the use of sexually degrading, gender-specific epithets, with which the former boyfriend barraged Forrest at work, was harassment "based upon sex" and therefore prohibited under Title VII. Id. at 230.
The First Circuit's analysis in Forrest reflects its review of the district court's grant of summary judgment. Thus, the parties before it had the opportunity to engage in discovery and were expected to present a complete factual record.[6] By contrast, this case is at the preliminary motion to dismiss stage. As such, the factual record before the Court is by its very nature incomplete. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 8(a)(2) (requiring only


that a Complaint provide "a short and plain statement of the claim showing that the pleader is entitled to relief"). In relying exclusively upon the Forrest case, Defendant fails to acknowledge that the determination of whether an issue is trialworthy simply is not the same as the determination of whether a plaintiff states a claim upon which relief can be granted. See, e.g., Hercik v. Rodale, Inc., No. 03-CV-06667, 2004 WL 1175734, at *4 (E.D.Pa. May 27, 2004). In short, "a plaintiff is not required to prove her entire case in her pleadings." May v. Schering Corp., Civ. No. 09-170-B-W, 2010 WL 377012, at *6 (D.Me. Jan. 26, 2010) (citation omitted). While the Defendant ultimately may be correct that the Plaintiff will struggle to prove that Damon's harassmentis inextricably linked to the harasser's decision to harass." Forrest, 511 F.3d at 229.
*122 More importantly, after the record is further developed, it is certainly plausible that even seemingly gender-neutral harassment such as tire slashing may shed important light on the determination of whether the complained-of conduct was "sufficiently severe or pervasive so as to alter the conditions of the plaintiff's employment and create an abusive work environment." Agusty-Reyes, 601 F.3d at 52 n. 6. For, as recently reaffirmed by the First Circuit:
The fact that certain of the complained-of conduct appeared to have no sex-based connotation at allfor example, throwing her food away and removing items from her deskdoes not diminish to force of the evidence indicating gender-based animus. Indeed, as we have noted, such acts may be


Thus, "[a]lleging constructive discharge presents a `special wrinkle' that amounts to an additional prima facie element." Landrau-Romero v. Banco Popular De Puerto Rico, 212 F.3d 607, 613 (1st Cir.2000) (citation omitted). A plaintiff who is successful in proving constructive discharge may be entitled to recover two sets of damages: damages flowing from the hostile work environment itself (i.e., compensatory damages and possibly punitive damages) as well as damages flowing from the loss of her job (most notably back pay and front pay). See generally 42 U.S.C.A. § 1981a(a)(1).[9] As such, the Court is not persuaded that it is inappropriate for the Plaintiff to proceed with a separate count of constructive discharge.
The Court remains cognizant, however, that the constructive discharge standard is more onerous than the hostile work environmentI'll crack him and Wreck-Gar open tomorrow and post some thoughts on them.

(NYSE:CVX). Offshore and international producers, like ATP (ATPG), Cobalt (NYSE:CIE) and Stone Energy (NYSE:SGY). And eventually to what I view as the most attractive opportunities, which are smaller to mid-sized companies with exposure to large unconventional light oil resource plays like Petrobank (OTCPK:PBEGF), Penn West (NYSE:PWE) and Chesapeake (NYSE:CHK).

There were a few things that attracted me to these unconventional oil players. What I liked included:

-Exposure to light oil resources

-Assets are located in friendly North America.

-The resource plays carry very little exploration risk, in fact, they are much more like an assembly line operation.

-The technology being used on these resource plays is improving almost monthly both lower costs of production and increasing the amount and rate at which oil can be recovered.

-These companies are valued basically based on theirdecline (percentage decline in parens). Libya was a factor for most though not for BP, which saw the largest drop.

Then we have a second group of companies. Petrobank/Petrobakken, Penn West, Chesapeake and others which do not have any problems replacing their reserves on an annual basis. Each of these companies in fact has decades of drilling locations in emerging light oil plays in North America. As they drill up these locations their reserves and production grow like clockwork.

So one group is struggling to maintain production. The second group has huge land bases amassed which represent certain growth in the years ahead. The head scratcher is that as I look at these two groups of companies (especially after the recent selloff) it appears to me that the non-growth group


did not rule on punitive damages, he invited the Bankruptcy Court to review its punitive damages assessment in light of the new ruling on compensatory damages. Id. at 13. On remand the Bankruptcy Court increased the compensatory damages to $89,395.01. Reposa v. North Atlantic Fishing, Inc. (In re Reposa), A.P. No. 87-0021, slip op. at 3, 1991 WL 502482 (Bankr.D.R.I. Nov. 14, 1991) (hereinafter "Votolato 1991"). Additionally, Judge Votolato more than doubled the punitive damages award, determining that the punitive damages should offset the Reposas' remaining indebtedness to NAF. Id. at 4. Accordingly, the Bankruptcy Court assessed punitive damages of $334,160.64, an amount equal to NAF's $423,555.65 proof of claim less the $89,395.01 compensatory damages award. Id.
NAF and Lee again appealed, resulting in the present action. This Courtdoctrine dictates that payments made to an injured party from sources independent of and collateral to the tortfeasor do not diminish the damages recoverable from the tortfeasor, even if the payments cover all or a part of the harm for which the tortfeasor is liable. Restatement (Second) of Torts § 920A(2)(1977); see also Reilly v. United States, 863 F.2d 149, 161 (1st Cir.1988) ("absent a statutory provision to the contrary, the amount of recovery from one responsible for another person's injury will not be reduced by the amount received from a collateral source by the plaintiff"). Typically, the doctrine applies to such independent sources as insurance policies maintained by plaintiff or an innocent third party, employment wages and benefits, gratuities, social security benefits, and welfare payments. Restatement (Second)


of Torts, § 920A cmt. c; see also, e.g., Soucy v. Martin, 121 R.I. 651, 657, 402 A.2d 1167, 1170 (1979) (collateral source doctrine prohibits reduction of damages by amount of wages plaintiff received from employer during his injury); Colvin v. Goldenberg, 108 R.I. 198, 202, 273 A.2d 663, 666 (1971) (social security benefits and money paid to plaintiff from insurance policy funded by his employer not deducted from damages awarded to plaintiff); Aldcroft v. Fidelity & Cas. Co., 106 R.I. 311, 315, 259 A.2d 408, 412 (1969) (applying collateral source rule to both wages and medical expenses paid by plaintiff's employer).
Importantly, however, this rule does not apply to payments made by "a tortfeasor or by a person acting for him" or to "payments made by another whoPimental, 121 R.I. at 13, 393 A.2d at 1101-02.
However, in this case, Judge Votolato failed to apply this standard. Instead, relying on an earlier bankruptcy case, In re Walker, 7 B.R. 216, 222 (B.R.I.1980),[2] Judge Votolato explained in his 1988 opinion that punitive damages "are only to be awarded where an act is done intentionally and without just cause." Votolato 1988, slip op. at 14. The Bankruptcy Court concluded that as a result of Lee's intentional misrepresentations, Lee had knowingly endangered the lives of the Reposas and their crew, who could have been out at sea when the engine failed. Id. at 15. The Bankruptcy Court, therefore, determined that Lee's misrepresentations triggered an award of punitive damages. Id. On remand, the Bankruptcy Court relied on its earlier determination

While the NCDB does not specify the biological agent used for each patient, IT use may include immune checkpoint inhibitors (anti-CTLA-4, anti-PD-1, or anti-PD-L1), interleukins, and oncolytic virus (talimogene laherparepvec), but not BRAF (i.e., dabrafenib or vemurafenib) or MEK (i.e., trametinib) inhibitors.

A total of 19,294 patients diagnosed with stage IV melanoma between 2004-2015 were represented in the database. We excluded patients not receiving RT (n=12,205) or with incomplete or unreliable treatment information (e.g., missing total dose, fraction number, or treatment site) (n=1,174). We classified 5,915 patients who received RT with complete treatment information into CFRT (\<5 Gy/fraction) and HFRT (≥5 Gy/fraction) dose-fractionation groups (Figure [1](#FIG1){ref-type="fig"}). For CFRT, we included 3,900 patients   \<0.01

After stratification by site treated, patients who received treatment to the brain showed a difference in survival that was marginally significant in favor of concurrent/adjuvant IT (log rank: 0.0749) (Figure [9](#FIG9){ref-type="fig"}).

Notice the structure of theto a question about how many of the Taliban might be considered "moderate" and therefore open to reconciliation, Mr. Biden ticked off some percentages.

"Five percent of the Taliban is incorrigible, not susceptible to anything other than being defeated. Another 25 percent or so are not quite sure, in my view, [of] the intensity of their commitment to the insurgency," Mr. Biden said during a press conference.

"And roughly 70 percent are involved because of the money, because of them being . . . paid," he said.

Now we are hearing about another attempt to find moderates to negotiate with--this time in Hezbollah. After failing to negotiate with the Iranians or to pull Syria away from Iran, now the US is reduced to finding moderates among a terrorist organization.

from Israel rather than to attack — which is not at all what anyone at the top thinks. Even if second-tier leaders were less belligerent, it wouldn’t matter. The organization takes its order from Tehran. Hezbollah won’t change until its masters change in Iran, and the U.S. is no more able to “build up” any imagined moderates within its ranks than it is able to replace Khamenei’s hated dictatorship with the Green Revolution.[emphasis added]

Indeed, the Obama administration--which has been so throughly outmaneuvered by Iran--is no more able to promote the moderates of Hezbollah than it is to pull Syria away from Iran. At this point, Iran, Syria and Hezbollah--indeed, the entire Muslim world--have seen how weak the Obama administration actually is.

About Me

When I am not blogging at Daledmore than others. It will take some time for the industry to parse the impacts of the Solar Tariff, but let’s first put this into context. NREL reports that solar modules account for 19% (for commercial solar) to 33% (for utility-scale solar) of the installed cost of a solar PV system. So the Solar Tariff represents an increase of 6% to 11% of total installed system cost. In real dollars, the 30% Solar Tariff will immediately add between 10.5 cents/watt and 11.4 cents/watt to module costs (assuming module prices otherwise stay at Q1 2017 levels). By comparison, NREL reports that the installed cost of commercial solar fell 32 cents/watt between Q1 2016 and Q1 2017, and over 40 cents/watt for utility-scale solar during that same period.

everyone else are trying to kill the monsters. You can hit the monsters with an appropriately colored archer, knight, or swordsman and the monsters are trying to take down your wall and castle. There is a winner but if the monsters win, you all lose. We just played it as a co-op game and ignored the monster killing points... but we lost to the monsters with some bad luck.

The other living child of the family (IV-4) had a surgically repaired cleft palate. It is not clear whether this may represent a mild expression of OFDS type IV or unrelated cleft palate.

As the proband\'s birth certificate indicates, she was born with a birth weight of 2450 gr, length 45 cm, and her head circumference was 32.5 cm (all \<3rd centile). At age of 25 days, she was reported to have hypertelorism, depressed nasal bridge, microrethrognathia, median pseudocleft of the upper lip, small and lobulated tongue, pseudocleft of the posterior palate, and bifid epiglottis. She had mesomelic shortness of the limbs with club feet, duplication of great toes, and polysyndactyly. Her radiographs revealed an extra phalanx between the

She underwent multiple surgeries to fix the polydactyly and bifid thumbs. She had bilateral talipes equinovarus ([Figure 5](#fig5){ref-type="fig"}). She had undergone many surgeries of hands and feet because of syndactyly, brachydactyly, and polydactyly.

Intraoral examination revealed cleft palate and a pseudo-cleft lip, sublingual hamartoma, and lobulated tongue that had been operated on bilaterally because of tumor-like lesions ([Figure 6](#fig6){ref-type="fig"}). Dental findings included the presence of profound carious lesions on the permanent upper and lower right first molars and superficial dentine carious lesions on the permanent upper centrals and both left first molars.

Reception

Severance received generally favorable reviews. The film holds an approval rating of 64% on the film critic site Rotten Tomatoes based on 89 reviews, with an average rating of 6.1/10. The consensus reads: "A twisted and bloody spoof on office life, Severance nicely balances comedy and nasty horror." On Metacritic, the film holds a score of 62 out of 100 sampled from 23 critics' reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".

Peter Travers of Rolling Stone commended Smith's "mischievous blending [of] The Office with Friday the 13th", awarding the film three stars out of four. Peter Bradshaw of The Guardian gave not such a positive review, saying, "It is being billed


the current preferentially flows. However, this mechanism alone does not explain the operation of the metamaterial LEDs, because the device with the continuous metal film does not emit light even at high voltages. In addition, the metamaterial LED with the highest brightness and conductivity (small rings and period 450 nm, red curves of [Fig. 3a,b](#f3){ref-type="fig"}) is the one where the fraction occupied by the gold patterns is the smallest (11% of the total ring array, as opposed to 17% for the metamaterial LED with larger rings and larger period characterized in the same panels). Thus, our results cannot be explained solely because the presence of Au reduces the resistivity of the junction.

To identify the dominant mechanism governing the metamaterial LEDs, we plot in [Fig. 3c](#f3){ref-type="fig"} the EL spectra ofthe presence of plasmonic nanostructures and, more particularly, in fluorescence experiments and calculations[@b19][@b20][@b21][@b22]. The various enhancements reported in these studies are in part due to the fact that surface plasmons are characterized by intense electromagnetic fields that considerably increase the number of radiative decay channels for the dots and therefore improve their quantum yield (Purcell effect). Several QLEDs have been demonstrated with charge transfer layers containing plasmonic nanoparticles that enhance the emissivity[@b23][@b24][@b25] with the Purcell effect. In these studies, the nanoparticles were not in the immediate vicinity of the active CQD layer, the EL was boosted by a few times and the electrical characteristics and spectra did not change noticeably. Here, in contrast, the dots are directly coated on the gold ring arrays and thus we are in


re-emit light with an electric field parallel to their long axis. This polarization dependence dominates the response of the metamaterial LED, as shown in [Fig. 4a](#f4){ref-type="fig"} where most of the light emitted by the structure is polarized along the long axis of the rods. This result is all the more remarkable that the nanorods occupy a small fraction of the total surface of the array (4.2%), implying that the CQDs that are not coupled to them are not active. For comparison, we show in [Fig. 4b](#f4){ref-type="fig"} the photoluminescence spectra of the device for the two same orthogonal polarizations. In this experiment, a 632-nm laser beam is focused on the sample with a × 50 objective that excites all the dots under the focus spot (that is, those thatnormalization is necessary to allow for comparison between the reference QLEDs (which emit light across the entire zone where the Al and ITO electrodes overlap; [Fig. 2b](#f2){ref-type="fig"}) and the metamaterial LEDs that emit light only above the Au nanoparticle array ([Fig. 2d](#f2){ref-type="fig"}).

Again, we place the sample under our Olympus microscope and pump it electrically; only this time we redirect the EL towards an iHR320 spectrometer from Horiba Jobin-Yvon coupled to a nitrogen-cooled InGaAs detector (Symphony II, also from Horiba Jobin-Yvon) ([Figs 3c](#f3){ref-type="fig"} and [4a](#f4){ref-type="fig"}). In the case of [Fig. 4a](#f4){ref-type="fig"}, a Glan--Thomson polarizer is inserted before the spectrometer, to analyse the collected light.

So, what are our politicians doing about the problem? While a discussion of global warming was mostly absent from the presidential election—the words “climate change” didn’t appear in a presidential debate for the first time since 1988—the topic of sea level rise did come up once. It was part of a laugh line at the Republican National Convention, when Romney criticized President Obama for promising to “slow the rise of the oceans and heal the planet.” As Bill Clinton put it in Minneapolis on Tuesday, “In my part of America, we would like it if someone could’ve done that yesterday.”

Perhaps it’s little surprise that climate change has all but disappeared from the public agenda. The fossil fuel industry has spent overPeople who reach a goal and then discover that it wasn't worth the effort often feel the need to justify the effort they put into it.

People who reach a goal and then discover that it wasn't worth the effort often feel the need to justify the effort they put into it. In this lesson, we'll look at how people engage in effort justification, examine a classic study on the topic, and look at some real-world applications.

Effort Justification

Groucho Marx once famously said that he wouldn't


want to join any club that would take him as a member. Though humorous, this statement raises a good question. What makes a group or club worth belonging to? How do people decide which groups are worthwhile?

The more effort people have to make to join a group, the higher they rate that group

Psychologists have one theory why people view groups and clubs as worthwhile. According to the theory of effort justification, people will believe a goal is worthwhile if they have worked hard to get there. So even if they never reach their goal, they will justify their actions as being worthwhile.

In the club example, people will believe a group is worth belonging to if they have to make an effort to get in. The more effort thatas the repetition of the everyday can become, this is still all you get.

We, dear readers, must persevere in our valiant effort to keep those eyes open — or else we may find ourselves awakening some distant future morning, wondering where it all went. That dreamy childhood self of yours, too, would urge you to get out of bed, put some pants on and show up to watch that little cow eat grass like none of your 100 eyes would damn well rather be anywhere else.

And if you’re just dying to feel that exhilarating rush of panic again — fear not. There are always finals.

Anti-tussive drugs are amongst the most widely used medications worldwide; however no new class of drugs has been introduced into the market for many years. The present study aims at evaluating the structural features and in vivo anti-tussive activity of a polysaccharide fraction from water extracted Withania somnifera. Herein, we have analyzed water extracted material of Withania somnifera using chemical, chromatographic, spectroscopic and biological methods. A polysaccharide fraction (F3) containing arabinosyl, galactosyl and galacturonosyl residues were obtained by anion exchange chromatography of the water extracted material. This polymer is branched and contained (1,5)-/(1,3,5)-linked arabinofuranosyl, (1,3)-/(1,6)-/(1,3,6)-linked galactopyranosyl residues together with small amount of terminal rhamnopyranosyl and terminal arabinofuranosyl residues.

Authoritiesand limitations of knowledge integration seriously. In a first step, I argue that philosophical debates about natural kinds provide a helpful starting point for optimistic interpretations of knowledge integration. Empirical evidence of cross-cultural convergence in ethnobiological taxonomies can be interpreted as involving recognition of the same empirically discovered property clusters. Assuming that different knowledge systems involve recognition of different properties of the same property cluster, integration is not only possible but also epistemically productive. While a simple model based on property clusters appears to favor an optimistic outlook on knowledge integration, I argue that such an account also helps to uncover substantial limitations of integration efforts. Recognizing such limitations does not only raise theoretical questions but has important implications for normative debates about knowledge integration. While knowledge integration


properties to a jaguar in Western science and from excrement smell to a jaguar in an Indigenous knowledge system. Furthermore, integration can also lead to genuinely novel inferences in which properties that are uniquely known in different knowledge systems are only jointly sufficient to make robust inference. More abstractly, we end up with a picture that is summarized by figure 1. Members of a kind K typically have a number of clustered properties P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X. Some properties are known only in knowledge system S1 (stripes) or S2 (dots) while others are known in both S1 and S2 (stripes and dots). 6 Figure 1: A kind K comes with properties P-X that are partly recognized by knowledge system S1 (stripes), partly byknowledge integration, there are also different property clusters to be found in different domains of inquiry. Ludwig (2015a), for example, suggests that mycological knowledge of the Tzeltal Maya of Chiapas may provide examples of only locally stable property clusters. For example, the mushroom taxon Tsa' wakax seems to refer to a stable property cluster within the highlands of Chiapas: members are usually small, of brownish color, short-lived, inedible, having gills, well-developed stipes, thin stalks, they grow on grasslands, shrivel up in the sun, have no cultural use, are found between June and October, and so on. However, there is little reason to believe that this cluster of properties will be stable across a range of environments beyond Chiapas. In a different environment (e.g. Appalachian Mountains), mushrooms that are


that is unique to an Indigenous ontology and its relevance for local practices. This would indeed require at least in parts adopting the ontological perspective of an Indigenous community but there seems to be no reason to think that this is empirically or even logically impossible. The abstract possibility of adopting Indigenous ontological perspectives, however, often contrasts with the reality of scientific practice. On the epistemic side, Western scientists will often fail to recognize Indigenous knowledge that is expressed in diverging ontologies because its recognition would require intimate familiarity with the epistemic and social goals of a community and the unique features of a local environment. On the normative side, Western scientists also tend to be interested in knowledge that fits in their own frameworks and does notanthropology into amateur metaphysics that populates the universe with all kinds of implausible entities. Ontologically oriented anthropologists have become increasingly aware of this dilemma between a weak cartographic and a strong metaphysical interpretation of the ontological turn and proposed various responses (e.g. Pedersen, 2012; Holbraad, 2013; Salmond, 2014) . 8 The term of "ontological cartography" is used by Descola (2005) as well as Costa and Fausto (2010) and Salmond (2014). However, these authors sometimes seem to use the term in a theoretically more ambitious way than my suggestion of "merely" describing the ontological commitments of different societies. 26 No matter what we think of the state of these anthropological debates, however, my proposed reading of ontological self-determination in ethnobiology provides a clear answer to this dilemma. On the


with simple cases increases chances for understanding why different cultures employ different ontologies. For example, my ethnobiological case studies did not simply document ontological differences but provided reasons for taking alternative ontologies both metaphysically and epistemologically seriously. Even if an Indigenous biological ontology diverges from Western science, it still often refers to empirically discovered property clusters that are of outstanding epistemic importance for a community. Such a strategy does not only provide a direct response to the dilemma of describing ontologies and implausible metaphysics but also leads to an account that takes practices of other cultures seriously. Approaching ontological divergence top-down with cases 28 of radical alterity will often be less helpful for understanding why different cultures employ different ontologies and can reinforce a picture of exotic incommensurabilitywithout any prospects of mutual understanding. Second, benefits of an account that starts with smaller ontological differences are not only theoretical but also political. Understanding why a diverging ontology is of crucial importance for the practices of an Indigenous community turns the status of such an ontology also into a political issue. If we start with the cases of ontological divergence that we understand the least, however, we can easily impede the goal of a normative account of ontological self-determination. Some proponents of the ontological turn in anthropology seem to accept his consequence by endorsing a "non- or anti-normative stance" (Holbraad et al., 2014) that does not evaluate ontological commitments at all. However, such a retreat from normativity threatens to make engagement with Indigenous ontologies a purely intellectual

The specificity of these sequences for three genes was confirmed by BLASTx search on GenBank (<http://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov>). Specific primers for *HmgA* and *Lac* were obtained by comparison with the degenerate primer of *HmgA* and *Lac* respectively.

When a switch is configured to logically partition a LAN segment into a VLAN, the VLAN is assigned an identifier, commonly referred to as a VLAN identifier. The assigned VLAN identifiers are not guaranteed to be unique across all broadcast domains. Accordingly, when VLAN information is collected for resolving network connectivity, the information cannot be readily used to distinguish among VLANs having the same VLAN identifier, but operating on separate broadcast domains. Consequently, all devices included in VLANs having the same VLAN identifier can be considered to be part of the same VLAN, even though all of the devices may not be


Report: Giuliani under investigation for lobbying violations

This is an archived article and the information in the article may be outdated. Please look at the time stamp on the story to see when it was last updated.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Rudy Giuliani, President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer, is being investigated by federal prosecutors in New York for possible lobbying violations.

That’s according to a report Friday in The New York Times, citing two anonymous people familiar with the inquiry.

One of the Times’ sources says the investigation is related to Giuliani’s efforts to undermine former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch.

Two Florida businessmen tied to Giuliani were charged Thursday with federal campaign finance violations. The men had key roles in Giuliani’s efforts to launch a Ukrainian corruption investigation against Democratic presidential contenderfirst seven quarters without Curry in the lineup.

Fellow “Splash Brother” Klay Thompson is picking up much of the slack, showing off his shooting prowess with 28.8 points per game in the four minus Curry this postseason. Thompson, in fact, set an NBA playoff record after draining seven 3-pointers in Game 1, becoming the first player to make seven treys or more in three straight postseason games.

To be fair, it has been a complete team effort. Head coach Steve Kerr’s squad is moving the ball around well, patiently finding open looks nearly every time down the court. It is averaging 26.8 assists per game with the sharpshooter out. All five starters scored in double digits in Game 1, topped off by Draymond Green’s second career postseason triple-double (23 points,

Heat shock factors (HSF) and heat shock proteins (HSP) are activated in the event of heat stress and play a similar role here as chaperones to that of dehydrins in the event of cold and drought stress (Yu et al., 2005, Mol Cells 19: 328-333).

Therefore, clear understanding of complex interaction between tsunami induced forces and impacted coastal structures is essential requirement for further protection strategy. The performance of structures during these disasters indicated the dimness in the current design code. Hence, more researches need to be conducted to understand the loading circumstances on the near shore structures based on both physical and numerical simulations. Lines of evidence from 2004 tsunami and 2011 tsunami showed that waves broke where the depth of water was equivalent to incident wave height. These waves inundate the shore as hydraulic bore with high speed. The present experiment used a dam break mechanism which could simulate tsunami like waves that propagated along the flume.

2. Background


*x* \< 3.75 m from the gate. The dimensionless *x*/*L* was measured to discover the appropriate location that showed the better wall performance as a protection measure. With the above arrangements, all of the waves were observed as broken and advanced along the downstream of the flume. The bore height was taken as the height of the instant water level in the inundation area. The sampling duration was selected as 90 sec, so that full inundation phases as well as any return flow could be captured conveniently. Four different reservoir depths were considered that produced different flow depths near the model. Finally, the results obtained from using higher solid wall (wall 2 = 8 cm, high) were compared with modified configuration wall containing 26% perforations ([Figure 1(b)](#fig1){ref-type="fig"}). These experiments were donepresented in [Figure 2](#fig2){ref-type="fig"}. Waves were transmitted over the sea wall (orange wall 1 and green wall 2) and data were recorded by the wave probe. From this figure, it was found that as the sea wall height is increased, the wave height near the building model decreases. Other experiments were performed by placing these walls in position 2 (*x* = 3.50 m from the gate). The decreasing trends of wave height corresponding to wall height were similar to [Figure 2](#fig2){ref-type="fig"}; however, the wave height reduction rates for both the walls were smaller relative to position 1.

Competition barbecue and meat...Lone Star-style

Meatopia, a long-standing NYC fall tradition, expands to San Antonio in November.

Competition barbecue is some serious business, with dedicated meat men and women hauling a literal ton of equipment from Memphis to New York City to Bentonville to Lynchburg with hopes of capturing the title, and a possible five-figure payday. But when it comes to these competitive barbecue festivals and contests, there are more certifying organizations than those that ruled heavyweight boxing in the '80s and pro wresting in the '90s — combined. Like the Avignon popes, the world of barbecue has experienced its share of schisms and disagreements, but most of these divisions have been formed to feature a particular regional style of cooking or specific meats being smoked over a wood fire.Sentai Filmworks has opted to release on Blu-ray.

Typhoon Noruda follows Azuma, a schoolboy who has recently been fighting with his longtime friend and baseball teammate. Azuma and his classmates are taking refuge from a particularly intense storm in their school when he notices a girl (named Noruda) outside who appears to be in distress. Azuma braves the weather to come to Noruda’s aid and quickly discovers that she is closely tied to the storm itself, and there is some bizarre events taking place that may have a more overarching impact than just a bit of rain.

Considering the runtime of just about 30 minutes, it’s a bit tricky discussing the plot without spoiling everything, but suffice it to say, Azuma must face some internal struggles as


eye catching. Some scenes were a bit soft, but these seemed to be more of a creative decision rather than a faulty transfer.

The audio track is perfectly suitable; and, for the most part, is not particularly exciting. The sound effects are all quite good and I never had any difficulties discerning the dialog even in the midst of the storm scenes.

Special Features:

Considering the brevity of this film, I would have liked to see more special features, but at the same time, short films generally don’t have a lot in the way of behind the scenes, do they?

Having said that, the short, Control Bear WONDER GARDEN is an absolute delight. It was very akin to something that you’d see before a Pixar film. I highly recommend watching this.

The BVI, but even better

At our base in Tortola (our Caribbean home-away-from-home), we have activities for everyone from chilled-out beach-bums to die-hard sailors.

There’s so much to love about the BVI and we want to share it with everyone, so we sent a film crew out to capture some of what makes this Caribbean sailing playground so extraordinary. Let us take you on a journey around the BVI, from the first time you head out of Road Town to splashing around the Baths and catching the winds that’ll speed you down the Sir Francis Drake Channel. Be warned, this destination will have you hooked!

The MEK have denied the charges, saying that they constitute a "politically motivated decision and it’s the last gift presented from the government of Nuri al-Maliki to the Iranian government". The court prosecuted them in 2007, when the chief prosecutor declared that there is strong evidence for the case, including video tapes showing MEK leaders meeting with senior Iraqi Intelligence Service officials and receiving money to implement orders. Back in 2005, a Patriotic Union of Kurdistan official asked for arrest and trial of Rajavi based on his organization's documentary evidence of the involvement.

Disappearance
Shortly after the Iraq War, Massoud Rajavi disappeared. His whereabouts remain unknown. In his absence, Maryam Rajavi has assumed his responsibilities as leader ofthe Bermondsey seat as a Labour candidate against both the Progressives and the Conservative-backed Municipal Reform Party. He was heavily defeated, coming at the bottom of the poll of five candidates. He contested the same seat in 1913, but was again unsuccessful.

All elections were postponed for the duration of the First World War. When a general election was called in December 1918, the parliamentary constituencies were revised under the Representation of the People Act 1918. Salter was selected as Labour Party candidate for the new Bermondsey West seat, and was described in the following terms by The Times:

appeasement could avert war with Germany, stating in November 1938 that "the average German will withdraw his backing from Hitler if we show willingness to be just". The failure of appeasement and outbreak of World War II left Salter deeply depressed.

Alkaline phosphatase: a marker of alveolar type II cell differentiation.
In an effort to identify type II cells by a method independent of staining phospholipid inclusions, we evaluated a histochemical technique for alkaline phosphatase activity in normal rat lung, in freshly isolated type II cells, and in primary culture of type II cells. In the adult rat alveolus, alkaline phosphatase staining selectively identified type II cells, although nonciliated bronchiolar (Clara) cells and loose perivascular connective tissue also stained for alkaline phosphatase activity. In cell suspensions of type II cells and other dissociated lung cells, alkaline phosphatase staining correlated closely with the modified Papanicolaou technique and was particularly useful in distinguishing type II cells from alveolar macrophages. To determine if alkaline phosphatase was related to the differentiated phenotype of typeII cells, we studied conditions known to affect other type II cell functions. When type II cells were cultured on plastic substrata, the intensity of alkaline phosphatase staining decreased with increasing time in culture. To quantitate the apparent decrease in alkaline phosphatase activity, we used a biochemical assay to study the expression of alkaline phosphatase by type II cells. The specific activity of alkaline phosphatase in type II cells declined with increasing time in tissue culture on plastic substrata. Alkaline phosphatase activity was maintained, however, by culturing cells on Englebreth-Holm-Swarm (EHS) tumor matrix. Cells that had reduced levels of alkaline phosphatase activity following 48 h of culture on plastic substrata could be "rescued" by removing them from the plastic substratum and reculturing them for 48 h on EHS


Chemical graph theory

Chemical graph theory is the topology branch of mathematical chemistry which applies graph theory to mathematical modelling of chemical phenomena.
The pioneers of chemical graph theory are Alexandru Balaban, Ante Graovac, Ivan Gutman, Haruo Hosoya, Milan Randić and Nenad Trinajstić (also Harry Wiener and others).
In 1988, it was reported that several hundred researchers worked in this area producing about 500 articles annually. A number of monographs have been written in the area, including the two-volume comprehensive text by Trinajstić, Chemical Graph Theory, that summarized the field up to mid-1980s.

The adherents of the theory maintain that the properties of a chemical graph (i.e., a graph-theoretical representation of a molecule) give valuable insights into the chemical phenomena. Others contend that graphs play only a fringe role in chemical research.desk. German Jewish anthropologist Franz Weidenreich replaced him as honorary director of the Laboratory and excavations continued uncovering a further three skullcaps in 1936.

Altogether excavations uncovered 200 human fossils from more than 40 individuals including 5 nearly complete skullcaps before they were brought to a halt in 1937 by the Japanese invasion of China. Reports of Japanese atrocities include the torture and murder of workers at the site, with three bayoneted to death and a fourth forced to pull a rickshaw until dying of starvation.

In 1941 the bulk of the finds were lost, never to be recovered, while being transported to safety. Fortunately, Weidenreich had made copies of the fossils to preserve their physical characteristics.

Post War Excavations

Excavation work was recommenced in 1949 unearthing new Peking Man fossils including


the Gulf of Mexico. And since then it’s expanded that BasinSPAN offering globally. And so now we have shot BasinSPANS all over the world in many of the hot basins, including off Brazil, East and West coast Africa, Australia, down in Indonesia, and have a very considerable offering in the arctic with program both in the Chukchi, the Beaufort off Greenland. And in addition we have shot in the Russian Arctic. In fact we got as close to 200 kilometers to the North Pole last year.

And coming out of that offering has been the development of quite a significant data library. So we have a very broad data library today that we can offer to oil companies as they are looking for information or data in specific areasthe picture.

cost the 49ers potential victories. The first happened in the overtime tie against the Rams on Nov. 11, when he pushed a 41-yarder wide left. The other occurred three weeks later in a loss at St. Louis, when Akers again lined up in overtime to try a potential game-winner one from 51-yards away -- hardly an improbable feat inside a dome -- and saw it drift wide right.

Just as troubling have been the kicks Akers misses in the run of play that would normally give the offense a boost at key moments but instead kill momentum. That happened in losses to Minnesota and the New York Giants. Akers' kickoffs have been seemingly unaffected by his injury. He is booming 81.5 percent of them into the end zone, roughlyall that. His immediate response was to strongly defend Akers.

"We've got total confidence in David," Roman said.

But then, in an attempt to address the original question, he added these words: "We're always going to make decisions, team decisions on offense on whatever's best for the team, however the big picture fits together. That's what we're going to try to do to win the football game."

So in other words: Yes, it is quite possible that the play-calling strategy has been Aker-ized. Only one way to change that. His mystery-meat foot has got to get back on the gold standard.


Q:

Average of the values for duplicate keys in a cell array of (key,value) in matlab

I have 2 columns in a cell array as key and value
I want a single value corresponding to every key so I removed the duplicate value as: wd=finalAlp93val;
[~,idx]=unique(strcat(wd(:,1),wd(:,2)) , 'rows')
finalAlp93val = wd(idx,:)
But it resulted in higher variation in result. How can I average all the values with the same key in matlab. The number of rows for each key is variable here. (Here key is the first column and value is the second column and I want to achieve the avg of values for each key.)

A:

here's how using a minimal example:
key=wd(:,1);
val=wd(:,2);
ukey=unique(key);

for n=1:numel(ukey)
    mean_value(n)=mean(val(key==ukey(n)));
end

so you can present them together as follows:

About Me

I'm a writer and English teacher based in Warwickshire.

'Being Miss' on Amazon Kindle, from FeedARead, or directly from me (UK) - go to 'Add to Cart'

Recent review: Funny and easy to read, Fran Hill's 'Being Miss' charts the life of a teacher in a secondary school...in one day. The day is jam packed with unfortunate incidents and sharp, insightful descriptions. Beautifully written with a delightfully flippant narrator. Great fun!

Being Miss by Fran Hill - get paperback version sent directly to you (in UK). Thank you!with them.” What do you make of that statement? JOHN CONWAY: It’s a famous quote. I’ve heard it many times. Leopold Kronecker who made the statement was really talking about Cantor’s set theory. Cantor was a great German mathematician who discovered the infinite numbers. His work was very contentious initially, and Kronecker was really against it. So one should understand the quote in terms of that.

I have a way of talking about this kind of thing using cats, and this in a way does take up from the business about Cantor and infinite numbers and so on. Even with the finite numbers like ‘2’ and ‘3’ (and they’re my favourites really), the question is, What are they? Many people think they’re concepts. But if you think about what


must have felt something of the same way that I did, except what I’d seen was all in my head. It was an amazing thing, to see something that was too big to fit in this universe, because there are many more surreal numbers than there are particles in the universe. How can that possibly be? There was another person in this respect, Georg Cantor, who discovered the transfinite numbers in the decade from 1870 to 1880, and he must have had similar feelings. Then he went mad. [Laughing] Maybe I’m going mad. Cantor died in a lunatic asylum. In the eighties I went to see it, just before the Berlin wall came down. We walked around the asylum and like every building in East Germany it wascompeting with them is absurd, because there’s no competition with me. How can there be?" John Conway on his peers

Taking you back to the late sixties at Cambridge, there was a twelve month period where you made three major discoveries: the Conway group in the field of mathematical symmetry, the very famous cellular automaton Game Of Life, and the surreal numbers, of which you’re proudest. How do you feel looking back on that period? Is it difficult to comprehend what you achieved? JOHN CONWAY: Before that period, when I was in my late twenties, I had what I think of still as my black period. I had showed promise at an earlier stage in my life, and then I didn’t live up to that promise, and I wondered


himself a couple of months to buy off the NDP again, to lure a
couple of M. P.'s across the floor, to check the death notices for
opposition M. P.s. Polls showed Canadians did not want an election.

But
Jean's decision seems more to be approved because people don't like the
Coalition and because of a general sense that politicians are playing
games while the country faces an economic crisis. The reader should know
that I am a Tory and abominate the Coalition and all its elements.
Despite my condemnation of Harper, I shall, as always, vote Tory in the
next election, whenever it is. If the prorogation derails the Coalition
and even gets Harper his majority, I shall be so far pleased.

But
we cannot look to the Governor General to decide who would be the best
government for Canada.Christmas, New Year's, Obama's inauguration, but so far as
national politics interests us there will only be more dissension,
anger, confusion and dismay. And by January 26 Parliament will not have
got through any business since it adjourned quietly last June.

The Queen's Government is not being carried on.

POSTSCRIPT

Since writing the above I have read news reports recounting what happened at Rideau Hall on Thursday morning.

Apparently
Jean never saw Harper alone. Kevin Lynch, the Clerk of the Privy
Council and head of the Civil Service, and the Governor General's
secretary, Sheila-Marie Cook, were present, except when Cook stepped out
to consult law professor, Companion of the Order of Canada, and, in the
words of The National Post, constitutional guru, Peter Hogg.

Lynch's
responsibilities, qualifications and interests in the question are
unclear. Unless it was to advise on the formalities in


as
Harper wanted a new session called for January 26 anyway.

The Globe says the proclamation proroguing parliament did not set a date for its resumption. But it does: Prorogation ProclamationSo much for the experts.

Minority
parliaments always involve a game of chicken. Will government and
opposition smash into each other in a confidence vote, likely ending a
Parliament and leading to an election, or will the government veer off,
dropping an unpalatable measure, or the opposition back off, abstaining,
as the Liberals did several times in the last Parliament.As I have argued in "IS IT ALL JUST A GAME"
Stephen Harper, like most politicians, has reduced politics to a game
and at the opening of this Parliament he will have felt he was perfectly
positioned to the run the Liberals off the road. How couldthey risk an
election after such a poor showing in the last election and with a new
leader to be picked in May? Despite musings about "uniting the left" and
Harper's own dalliance with the Bloc in the 2004 minority Parliament, a
coalition of the opposition seemed unthinkable. In the fatal phrase of
Joe Clark, he could "govern as if he had a majority."Uninterested
in government, Harper had Flaherty present an unexciting economic
statement, perhaps unexceptionable despite the affected outrage of the
opposition. The real move in the political game was the proposal to
abolish the $1.95 per vote subsidy to political parties. There's
something to be said for it. I'd scrap all election finance laws,
subsidies, limits, tax credits, the lot. But that is not the point. The
point is that the opposition parties rely on the subsidy, the
