Hi guys, I saw this image on the interwebs - Elvis playing a bass. At first it looked like an old P bass (the fender logo is kinda visible), but on second look it seems to be shorter in scale. I'm not a bass player so I'm really not up with what's-what in bass land, so can anyone help ID what it is?
Its the top image on this site: https://www.elvispresleymusic.com.au...965-march.html
According to the site, the pic was published in a magazine called 'The Commercial Appeal' on March 7, 1965 - so we know the bass is mid 60's or earlier.

Martian Child – A New Line Cinema release. Directed by Menno Meyjes. Starring John Cusack, Joan Cusack, Bobby Coleman, Amanda Peet, Oliver Platt, Sophie Okonedo, and Richard Schiff. Rated PG.
Martian Child – A New Line Cinema release. Directed by Menno Meyjes. Starring John Cusack, Joan Cusack, Bobby Coleman, Amanda Peet, Oliver Platt, Sophie Okonedo, and Richard Schiff. Rated PG.
Martian Child is one of those films that can easily get lost in the rush. The film hasn't done well, and it's too bad because, even though it plays like a cable film, it does have some very good performances. It also gives Cusack, who did so well in the thriller 1408, another opportunity outside the romantic comedy genre.
The screenplay, by Seth E. Bass and Jonathan Tolins and based on the book by David Gerrold, is about struggling widower and sci-fi author David Gordon (Cusack), who, just can't get beyond his loss of his wife two years earlier.
He has the idea to adopt. Now, David has always walked to his own beat and, while his wife's best friend Harlee (Peet) encourages him, his caring sister Liz (Joan Cusack) doesn't think it's the best idea.
David goes forward, gingerly at first. Out of all the kids he could adopt, he is drawn to Dennis (Coleman). Dennis has been through one home after another. No one knows how to deal with a young boy that believes he has come from Mars.
When they first meet, Dennis is in his protective environment, a cardboard box that shields him from the sun. David is able to get him to come out of his box (with the help of sunglasses) and the two begin a shaky period of getting to know each other. Dennis loves to take pictures, snapshot of this world to take those pictures back to Mars. Dennis also tends to take things, doesn't speak much and seems to be afraid.
For every good or great moment, there is a crisis – some big, some small. It doesn't take a genius to know that this will all work out in the end. But it's the journey and the lessons on parent/child relationships – just how much rejection can force a child into a fantasy world in order to cope, and the difficulty in moving on after a death of a person's true love – that are at the heart of the story.
Is it deep? Certainly not, but the story takes hold because all the actors make a strong effort.
Cusack has been around so long he, in a way, has become unappreciated. Very rarely does he give a bad performance. Here, he doesn't use the sympathy card. He works to bring some depth; when he looks at old photos and is brought to tears, Cusack pulls it off. Coleman and Cusack's chemistry works as each shows the fear that both have.
Directing is Meyjes who worked with Cusack on the director's first feature Max. In that film, Cusack portrayed an art dealer who meets a young painter named Adolf Hitler. Martian Child is obviously more mainstream, and, just as Meyjes had a pretty good hold on Max, he does the same here. Meyjes keeps the manipulative moments to a minimum, and the tearjerker elements are reined in.
Even with all the hard work from the actors and director, the film can't shake the fact that it feels like a cable film only touching the surface; everything is pretty cleared up by the time the credits roll. Martian Child isn't a bad film; it just would have worked better on television or on DVD.

Huffington Post blogger Beau Friedlander lost his posting privileges today for offering $100,000 for a Glenn Beck sex tape. Initially indignant, he is now begging for forgiveness.
Friedlander used to be the editor-in-chief of Air America, which theoretically makes him an important liberal person, and a shoo-in for a Huffington Post blog. This morning, he came up with a gambit: Just as Andrew Breitbart once offered $100,000 for the archives of a liberal listserv (the better to attack his ideological enemies), Friedlander would offer $100,000 for a sex tape of Glenn Beck (the better to make everyone vomit in their mouths). Two problems, though: Friedlander doesn't have $100,000, and nobody thinks Glenn Beck has a sex tape. No matter, here's what Friedlander said:
It is time to pop the tea baggers' favorite balloon (so what if it will be replaced by another?), and with that in mind I hereby offer to negotiate a $100,000 payday to the person who will come forward with a sex tape or phone records or anything else that succeeds in removing Glenn Beck from the public eye forever. I am not offering the cash myself, but I will broker the deal and/or raise the money for what you bring to the table. (And it better be good.)
Oh, how awkward. A poorly conceived joke that only highlights the joker's impotence. Unless Friedlander was actually serious? He made an email address—firstname.lastname@example.com—to aid his mission. (Obviously this man has never attempted to secure a sex tape before. They don't just rain from the sky every time you do a little dance to summon them, Beau.) Not long after, though, the Huffington Post moved "$100,000 For Glenn Beck's Sex Tape" from the Politics category to Comedy. Then, they disappeared the post entirely.
Friedlander told the Observer it was mostly a joke, but his HuffPo editors punished him by taking away his posting privileges: "As a blogger for the Huffington Post, it feels like a scarlet letter on my shirt." More depressing words have never been spoken by a professional journalist.
Other, perhaps, than the words in Friedlander's "Apology to Glenn Beck," in which he grovels for "actually trying to mimic what I saw as the way right wingers go about these matters, and by misapprehending the way they do things, I went too far."
Oh, shut up, all of you. May the sun go down on this most disheartening day in liberal journalism, comedy, and sex tapes and may we never, ever speak of it again.
In other news, Glenn Beck has yet to deny that he raped and murdered a girl in 1990. [Observer, Observer, HuffPo, HuffPo]

Across the country, both private and public institutions of higher education have announced that they will be test-optional for students applying to enter school in the fall of 2021. This policy, instituted as a response to coronavirus cancellations of standardized testing dates, comes with the caveat that it would only exist during next year's round of admissions. But the University of California system has gone in an entirely different direction by announcing that will no longer require the SAT or ACT for all California state applicants. [...]

Facebook is close to paying $1 billion for Israeli social mapping and traffic applications Waze, according to Israeli reports.
The reports, which comes from three Israeli sources, say that Facebook has been negotiating with Waze for six months, according to TechCrunch. However, back in January Apple was also negotiating a deal for $500 million to better its beleaguered Apple Maps, according to Forbes. Unfortunately, rumors say that Apple chief Tim Cook has no intention of upping an offer to $1 billion.
U.S. & World
News from around the country and around the globe
Waze, which also uses crowdsourcing to create maps, is desired by Facebook because it will beef up its mobile business which is steadily growing. And paying $1 billion isn't unheard of -- Facebook chief Mark Zuckerberg did agree to pay that for Instagram. The photo-sharing program also helped boost Facebook's mobile audience and ad revenue which rose 23 percent from the last three months of 2012.
Still, neither Facebook or Waze confirms or denies the negotiations. "We won't comment on speculation," a Facebook flack told TechCrunch. Waze said pretty much the same thing.
While Waze is an Israeli company, its U.S. offices and chief executive officer are based in Palo Alto, close to Facebook headquarters and an easy commute to the office to negotiate. And we all know that Zuckerberg negotiated wtih Instagram chief executive Kevin Systrom at Zuckerberg's own Palo Alto home.

Since then both ballet critics and prominent representatives of the contemporary dance scene have claimed Gauthier as one of their own: The free dance scene can learn a few things from Gauthier Dance writes Kulturvollzug, while according to the Kronen Zeitung: He brings glamour and humour to the classics.
Given the specific structural and economic conditions faced by a resident company of a private theatre, Gauthier Dance has demonstrated considerable competence as well as a remarkable productivity. The Dance Company Theaterhaus Stuttgart can count more international appearances than many other German dance ensembles. Gauthier Dance have guested in Germany, Europe – including Spain, Italy, Switzerland, Austria and Luxembourg – and internationally. Wherever the company appears they are greeted with enthusiasm and immediately booked for follow-up shows.
Despite all the success, the company has never neglected its social engagement. For the artistic director Eric Gauthier, the son of a notable Canadian Alzheimer`s specialist, making dance accessible to as many people as possible is a task that is particularly close to his heart. With the Gauthier Dance Mobile, the ensemble guests in, among other places, hospitals, nursing homes and youth centres, bringing dance to people who are unable to visit the theatre. In addition, once a year, Eric Gauthier presents a dance gala at the Theaterhaus Stuttgart in support of Alzheimer`s research to raise awareness of the still largely taboo subject of dementia.
This is a private company. To join you must be a registered member and send request to join it.

Most readers probably know that I fly airplanes for a living... Next week I'm off for a different kind of flying! Together with my wife Djamila, who also is a pilot, I'll be attending a 5 day "paragliding" course in the French Pyrenees near Tarbes. Paragliding is one of the most basic forms of flying, using a ram-air airfoil wing also called the canopy. One runs downhill until enough lift is created and then glides down the valley. Like in a standard glider, if the weather is right, one can stay up for hours at a time. However since this is a beginners course, we will initially learn how to launch and control the wing while still on the ground. By the end of the week we hope to do a few longer flights...
Earlier this year, we both had a quick shot at paragliding during our "Empty quarter" adventure.
Living in nature for a week, I will try to get some landscape photography in there as well.

And I certainly know that, back when I was struggling to get through each hour of the day and wondering if I/my marriage was going to survive, I desperately wanted to know how others got through.
So, herewith, my thoughts. (And they are MY thoughts. Take what you need, leave what doesn't work.) And remember too, this advice is for those who want to save their marriage...or at least preserve it long enough to determine if you want to save it.
Step #1: You have to both commit to putting the relationship first. Before your needs, before his needs...you serve the needs of the relationship, almost as if it's a child you're both nurturing. Once that is in place, you're far more free to hash stuff out without fear that one of you has one foot out the door.
This step is impossible with someone who's still deep in the fog of an affair. It takes two to save a marriage. You can try valiantly...but as long as he's refusing to take responsibility for the damage he's done, forget it. It doesn't mean it's over...but it does mean it's time for some tough love.
Step #2: You need to focus on healing yourself... Your main job in the early days following D-Day is to focus on taking care of yourself (and kids, if you have them). That means sleep, eating properly, avoiding excessive (or any!) alcohol, drugs, shopping, gambling. It means surrounding yourself with supportive people. Avoiding toxic people. Steering clear of drama. And staying away from the OW. It's time to wrap yourself in a cocoon and nurture yourself back to a sense of safety.
Step #3: ...and don't manage his healing. As much as it will kill you to acknowledge, he's hurting too. Yes, he detonated the bomb that caused the damage...but likely you both built the bomb together through years of slights, lack of appreciation, misunderstandings. And as much as it will also kill you (and you don't need to be privy to much), he's possibly missing the OW and very likely missing the sense of excitement that the affair provided. You don't need to (and should NOT) have to listen to his tales of woe and self-pity. He brought it on himself. But you would do yourself and him some good to allow him to heal on his own. You don't get to dictate his feelings. You DO get to dictate the terms of what you need to give him another chance but (and here's the catch), they must be terms that are focussed on your marriage healing, NOT on punishing him. (Sometimes it may seem to be both...but always check your motives.) For example, you get to insist that he cut off contact with the other woman as a condition of you staying. You do NOT get to insist that he doesn't miss her. Get it? Stay focussed on YOU, what you need and what you can reasonably control.
Step #4: Don't take his affair personally. I know it sounds wacky. In the days and weeks following discovery of my husband's affair, I went crazy trying to figure out what she had that I didn't. And for a perfectionist like me, it was excruciating! I was fit...she wasn't. I was smart...she wasn't. I was an overachiever...she wasn't. I raised money for orphans...she didn't. You get the idea. My husband kept telling me it had nothing to do with me and I would scream at him "How could this NOT have something to do with me. You chose to spend time with HER not ME? How is this not personal?" He had no idea...he only knew that it wasn't.
Finally, one day the light went on. I wish I could tell you what made me realize but I guess months of analysis along with my husband's reassurance finally clicked and I realized that it truly, honestly had nothing to do with me. It wasn't that there was something wrong with me, it was that there was something wrong with HIM. And he took that brokenness to someone else because it felt safer. Because if she rejected him, it wouldn't hurt the way it would with me. Counter-intuitive, yes. The thought process of a fairly screwed up psyche, yes. But also a thought process that so many of us have and simply don't realize. We seek outside ourselves what is missing inside.
So...I'll say it again. Don't take his affairs personally. They're about his broken-ness, not yours.
Step #5: Don't use his affair as an excuse for your own bad behaviour. His cheating does not give you an excuse to cheat, lie, steal or be physically or emotionally abusive. I said some horrible things in the wake of finding out. I said he was a lying scumbag (which, at that point, was factually validated by his behaviour). I said I hated him. I said he had "killed me inside". I smashed a watch of his, broke a television. I was pretty wacked out. Discovering a spouse's affair can make you crazy. Just keep crazy to a minimum as best you can. It doesn't help you, definitely hurts your kids...and can hurt your marriage to unleash crazy. If necessary, schedule your breakdowns -- rage and kick and scream in your bedroom when the kids are at school. Pound on your pillow, imaging it's his face. But keep yourself inside the law...and the boundaries of decency. Which also means NO revenge affairs. That's simply inviting another person into an already nutty situation. It's tempting, I know, to seek solace in the arms of someone who reassures you that you're still sexy and appealing. But you are. You never stopped being so (unless, of course, you did...in which case, get thee to a gym. Physical health can go a long way toward emotional health and to self-confidence.)

VALDOSTA, Ga. - A family has hired a private investigator to search for clues in the mysterious death of their daughter at Valdosta State University.
Relatives of 17-year-old Valdosta State freshman Jasmine Benjamin tell CBS Atlanta (http://bit.ly/YofIpt) that they hope the investigator can turn up new leads in the case. They say they've hired Martinelli Investigations Inc. of Lawrenceville to assist in the investigation.
Police detectives have canvassed dormitories and interviewed several students on the south Georgia campus, hoping to learn how Benjamin died. Police say they're treating the case as a homicide, though autopsy results are not complete and they can't say for certain whether she was slain.
Benjamin, who is from Gwinnett County, was found unresponsive on a couch in a study room of her dormitory on Nov. 18.

Princeton admission viewbook available online
The University's 2004-05 Admission Information viewbook is now available online, offering prospective students a valuable look at undergraduate life at Princeton.
"Our residential college experience allows students to live in an academic community and reap the benefits of living with other motivated students, being advised by dedicated faculty members and learning from upperclass students," Dean of Admission Janet Rapelye writes in her greeting. "There are many ways to be successful at Princeton. We hope as you read, you will gain an appreciation for the fine teaching and research to which students are exposed as well as the intellectual limits that they can challenge during their four years here."
"The undergraduate education at Princeton is superb," Rapelye adds. "At the same time students are pursuing academic options, we hope they are developing new talents, skills and personal interests."
Highlighting the "community of learning" at Princeton established more than 250 years ago, the Admission Information viewbook focuses on academic and campus life as well as the many resources and services available to students. It also includes important details about the University's need-blind admission process and its groundbreaking financial aid program, which enables students who qualify for aid to meet their financial commitments through grants and work-study -- not student loans.
The Office of Admission also has introduced a supplementary publication, Princeton in Brief , to provide prospective students with basic facts about the University and its history.
Deadlines for admission to the class of 2009 are Nov. 1 for early decision and Jan. 2, 2005, for regular decision.
Princeton's current freshman class includes 1,175 students. The University has enrolled the largest number of freshmen from low-income families in its history this fall and, for the second consecutive year, is awarding need-based financial aid to a record 52 percent of the class.
The University received 13,695 applications last year and offered admission to 12.7 percent of applicants. Of the entire class of 2008, 27.3 percent are students of color and 9.3 percent are international students from 50 countries. U.S. students hail from 48 states and Washington, D.C.

If you're not looking to spend megabucks this New Year's Eve, or just want a regular bar experience, there are a bunch of options in our neighborhood, all without a cover.
The Red Derby, like they always do, is a normal bar with a free champagne toast at midnight. I've spent many a NYE there and it's good times.
Looking Glass has a DJ starting at 10 but no cover, plus $20 bottles of bubbly and a whiskey toast at midnight.
Lyman's is doing the same thing they do every Thursday: being a normal bar. They'll have champagne at midnight, that's it.
Colony Club will have a ton of food: 1,000 oysters and they're roasting a whole goat on a spit, with karaoke upstairs and live music downstairs, plus beer and cider specials. Oysters are $10 for a half dozen or $15 for a dozen. Sounds pretty awesome.
Acre 121 has $6 champagne cocktails and $5 holiday drafts, plus happy hour starting at 5 pm, and a DJ. They also have a New Year's Day brunch.
Lou's City Bar has the same deal as Acre 121, plus $10 for a brats and tots combo.
If you're looking for something bigger (and with a cover,) Wonderland has DJ Meistro and $10 cover or $15 per couple and Room 11 has tickets for dinner. Petworth Citizen is doing a ticketed Oscar Wilde-themed dinner with cocktails by Dan Searing and Chantal Tseng, local cocktail experts.

Breathe in, breathe out …
Each year, thousands travel to Chiang Mai, Thailand, to find themselves in yoga, Thai boxing or meditation. Our author went there, too, to see what this spiritual playground has to offer.
Lightning flashes across the night sky, the rain beats down – and here I am, riding a motor scooter through the back of beyond in Thailand. I see the old woman on the street too late, brake, slide, fall, skid across the asphalt and feel a searing pain just below my right knee. The following morning, I skip the Thai boxing I had planned and head to the hospital instead. Diagnosis: a hairline fracture in my shin. It will heal, but not today. Will this put paid to my self-discovery project?
I had arrived in Chiang Mai three days before to really work on myself. Reiki, yoga, meditation, massage, dance mandala, qi gong, Thai boxing – I wanted to give them all a try. Back home, even sports clubs and adult education centers now offer seminars in Far Eastern-inspired self-discovery, but few places in the world offer such endless opportunities to participate in such activities as Chiang Mai. The city in the highlands of northern Thailand has become a place of pilgrimage for people from around the world eager to school body and mind. Over the decades, hippies, dropouts and alternative thinkers have come to appreciate the city, which counts as one of the obligatory stops along the Banana Pancake Trail. But while other places on that backpacker route are overrun by package tourists, the heart of Chiang Mai's old town has preserved its alternative atmosphere and become a dream destination for 21st-century seekers of the meaning of life.
My first stop: the Sabai De Ka massage school. Meaw, my 47-year-old instructor, promises to teach me the high art of massage in a day. Already my oil-smeared hands are kneading her shoulders rather helplessly. At first, my attempts elicit no more than a polite "Not bad…" from her. Frustrated, I'm about to give up when I suddenly get the hang of it and Meaw begins to moan. "Mmmm, yes, goood!" There you go, I'm thinking, encouraged, when she says, "That's enough on the shoulders, let's move on to the back." With slippery fingers, I leaf through the manual she gave me and start working her spine muscles.
After the course, I accompany fellow massage student Carla to the hippy café next door. Carla, 33, is Irish and has short black hair and a mandala tattoo on her upper arm. She tells me her story – one I've heard in similar forms from many other visitors to Chiang Mai: "China, Vietnam, Cambodia – I've been traveling for six months now. My life at home was a dead end. Here, I want to learn new things, hence the massage course." Then she raises one corner of her mouth mockingly: "But I'm not just doing it for a day, I'm on a four-week workshop." And she's right, of course. My radical express program makes me an exception. Most of the people I meet here stay longer – and don't even have to take time off work to do it: Chiang Mai has become the capital of digital nomads, who sit around in co-working spaces or on the roof terrace of their apartment, developing new apps and suchlike.
The lanes in Chiang Mai's old city center are tiny and the temples ornate, their grounds rambling and green; there's no sense at all here of a bustling metropolis; all is tranquility and relaxation. Shaven-headed monks in orange robes walk calmly along the streets. I'm on my way to the backyard studio Yoga Tree for the second day of my dance mandala course. My instructor, Areeradh, 47, developed this method of spiritual dance herself. There are eleven of us. "Sit down, close your eyes," says Areeradh. Music starts up. The floorboards creak when the second song begins, and I open my eyes. Two or three people have stood up and started moving, their bodies swaying back and forth like grasses in the wind. It looks odd. I stand up, too, sway back and forth, and feel odd. But then my mind switches off and all by themselves, my movements become larger and stronger. I take little leaps and break into a sweat. Areeradh's instructions? She says something but it sounds far off. When the course is over, I feel free, weightless almost.
"Wasn't that wonderful?" Coco asks me. We're sitting in the garden at the Yoga Tree, eating mangoes and papayas. Coco, 38, used to work as a dancer and now teaches a modern version of belly dance – at home in Berlin and on her own Youtube channel. Here in Chiang Mai, she's training to teach dance mandala. "There are no set moves, you just dance the way your body wants," she raves. "It's not about seeing or being seen."
On the third day of my experiment, I drive to Suan Sati, a newly opened rural commune outside the city. Plain bamboo huts amid vegetable beds and banana plants. "A year ago, you couldn't see three meters ahead of you; everything was so overgrown," says Will, 31, Suan Sati's U.S.-born founder. "We worked for months, building the huts and planting the vegetables. We want to be as self-sufficient as we can." Will, who has shoulder-length dreadlocks, lives here with his Austrian partner, Lisa, 28, and two other pals. They have space for up to 16 guests. Some people come for a few weeks; others stay for months, help in the fields, meditate, do yoga together. I join the afternoon yoga session, then we share a tofu curry. Beside me is Rachel, a yoga teacher from New York, and across from us sits full-bearded Adam from Colorado, a former ski instructor, who's been traveling the world with his girlfriend for two years. Our conversation zigzags across the large table. Strangers a couple of hours ago, now we feel like we've known each other for a very long time. What we do for a living, how much we earn – none of that matters here. I would love to stay longer, but I had made other plans.
The electric storm ruined them on the way back into town. The accident, the knee brace… What now? Determined to complete my program nevertheless, I attend my reiki course at the Body & Mind Healing School, where I am supposed to learn how to lay my hands on different parts of my body, empty my mind
and heal myself. Unfortunately, I fail. When the course is over, my shin is just as painful as before.
And so I have to cancel kick-boxing, although I do limp over to the Chiangmai Muay Thai Gym to take a look, at least. It's a high, open space with a boxing ring, and like a whirlwind inside it, Thays, 25, an interior designer from Germany, is thrashing at her sparring partner's punch padding. "I've been training here morning and night for the past two weeks," she says during a break. "To start with,
I was so whacked that I slept like a log between the sessions." I look on enviously as she climbs back into the ring.
I meet up with Carla again later, the woman from the massage workshop. I grumble to her about my tumble, my unfinished research. "You don't learn the most important things in seminars, anyway," she tells me "but when things don't go the way you want."
Esoteric babble? Mild mockery? Anger surges briefly inside me but soon subsides, surprisingly enough. This city has had an effect on me. I am calmer now, more relaxed – and more inquisitive. What if I committed totally to life in Chiang Mai, like Carla, Coco and Thays? If instead of jumping from one workshop to the next, I really immersed myself in what was going on here? "I'll be back," I tell Carla. "Next time, I'm planning to stay at least a month."

TeamViewer 9 is the latest release of the popular remote access/control program.
As with previous editions, you can use it to access your own computer across the internet, perhaps very valuable if you've accidentally left some important document at home. Or you can use it to remotely control another PC where TeamViewer is also installed; so if a friend's having technical troubles, you can log on to their system, even through most firewalls, and use the computer as though you were sitting in front of it, to quickly help them out.
The previous (v8) release added many essential new capabilities in this area. It enables you to save advanced connection settings for every PC you'd like to access or control, for instance, so you can start working right away. Transferring files between systems is now as easy as dragging and dropping. Multi-monitor support allows you to have different remote connection sessions running in each of your monitors, and it's now possible to record your sessions, both in the form of screenshots or AVI videos.
This alone would be enough for the program to qualify as a major upgrade - but there's much more. In particular, TeamViewer allows you to schedule and conduct online meetings for up to 25 people. You can schedule your event as an Outlook Meeting invitation. Participants can join from smartphones, tablets or computers, and once they've arrived will share a single screen, able to watch whatever you're doing, contribute via chat, use the white board and share files.
So, what's new in v9? You can now have one TeamViewer window, but with multiple control tabs, so you can quickly switch between your open remote access connections. A wake-on-LAN feature will auto-wake a PC when you try and access remotely, two-factor authentication will secure your remote access rights, you can now save individual customer configurations and much much more.
It's a very impressive upgrade, especially as the program remains entirely free for personal and non-commercial use. Business users, however, will need to purchase a licence.
TeamViewer has always been an easy way to remotely access and control other systems, and the new web meeting features in particular make it even more useful. Recommended.

Abstract: In our paper we present a project, the aim of which is to develop innovative and advanced methods for dynamic and automatic extraction of knowledge about concepts from texts and for automatic construction of ontologies. The project builds on and further develops the results of the CAOS project - Computer-Aided Ontology Structuring - which was carried out at Copenhagen Business School in the period 1998-2007. Terminological ontologies differ from other types of ontologies by comprising feature specifications and subdivision criteria. We have formalised subdivision criteria that have been used for many years in terminology work, by introducing dimensions and dimension specifications. In the CAOS prototype, facilities for semiautomatic checking of inconsistencies were developed. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8283

Abstract: In this paper we will describe some problems related to the defini-tion of a set of data categories as well as to the import and merging of data from various resources. First, we illustrate how organizing a taxonomy of data cate-gories is facilitated by using the principles for creating a terminological ontolo-gy (or concept system). Next, we discuss how multiple terminological entries referring to the same concept can be identified with the purpose of merging them. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8491

Abstract: In order to develop a harmonised and efficient IT system, such as a database, it is important to be familiar with the underlying concept model (concept systems) for the relevant domain which the IT system should be designed to accommodate, as this forms the necessary firm foundation for designing the conceptual data model. Although there is no one-to-one correlation between concept and characteristic features in the concept model and classes and attributes in the conceptual data model, there are many similarities between concept modelling and conceptual data modelling, and by closely examining the relationship between the two models, we have strived to construct an algorithm for creating conceptual data models in Unified Modelling Language (UML) on the basis of concept models that adhere to the traditional principles and methods of terminology work.

Editor's Note: Republican Leslie Sanchez was director of the Bush White House Initiative on Hispanic Education from 2001 to 2003 and is the author of "Los Republicanos: Why Hispanics and Republicans Need Each Other." Sanchez is CEO of the Impacto Group, which specializes in market research about women and Hispanics for its corporate and nonprofit clients.
Leslie Sanchez says Bill Clinton's global fundraising needs close scrutiny in Hillary Clinton's confirmation.
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- While Hillary Clinton's nomination to be secretary of state has dominated coverage of the transition, the nation's attention hasn't yet focused on the thorny thicket of potential conflicts of interest involving Bill Clinton's fundraising (both for himself and for his foundation) across the globe.
It should. The man has been a globe-trotting vacuum cleaner, virtually sucking up cash wherever it can be found.
True, Clinton has finally agreed to make public the 208,000 donors to the Clinton foundation, and he's agreed to submit future business enterprises and speeches for further scrutiny.
"If she is going to be secretary of state and I operate globally and I have people who contribute to these efforts globally," the former president told CNN, "I think that it's important to make it totally transparent."
Nevertheless, Clinton's jet-set moneymaking has already presented ethics lawyers with a confounding thicket, and his future endeavors may prove even more troublesome in the years to come.
Sure, a lot of the money Bill Clinton has raised may go to worthy causes, and there's no indication his wife will personally profit from it. Still, his global fundraising will create at least the appearance of serious conflicts when Hillary Clinton meets with leaders of countries in which he's been active.
Consider just one of Bill Clinton's lucrative arrangements. In the fall of 2005, he accompanied Canadian mining tycoon Frank Giustra on Giustra's corporate jet to meet with Kazakhstan strongman Nursultan Nazarbayev.
The U.S. had criticized Nazarbayev for jailing political opponents, canceling elections, and government control of the news media. Sen. Hillary Clinton had questioned his human rights record.
Nevertheless, he must have made quite an impression on Bill Clinton, who left the meeting publicly endorsing Nazarbayev's effort to head the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, which monitors elections and supports democracy. At a news conference afterwards, Clinton went so far as to praise Nazarbayev for "opening up the social and political life in your country."
Within 48 hours of the Clinton and Giustra meeting with Nazarbayev, Giustra signed a contract with the Kazakh state-owned uranium company, giving Giustra the right to buy into three uranium-mining projects, instantly turning him into one of the world's largest uranium producers (Kazakhstan possesses one-fifth of the world's known reserves of uranium).
With mining operations all over the globe courting the Kazakhs, Gene Clark, a uranium industry newsletter publisher, was quoted in The New York Times saying the choice of Giustra's company was "a mystery."
Within months, Giustra made a $31.3 million gift to The William J. Clinton Foundation, the Times reported. Later that same year, Clinton accompanied Giustra to Colombia, where another of Giustra's mining concerns was brokering a coal mining operation.
In June of 2007, Giustra gave $100 million to help establish the "Clinton-Giustra Sustainable Growth Initiative" to address global poverty. Some time later, Giustra, now 51, committed to give The William J. Clinton Foundation half of his future mining profits for life.
With Bill Clinton's foundation now essentially a 50 percent partner in Giustra's global mining empire, how will Secretary of State Hillary Clinton be able to travel to any country where Giusta has interests -- or hopes to have interests -- without creating at least the appearance of a conflict?
There are a couple solutions to all this, of course. Bill Clinton can dissociate himself from the foundation, or the foundation can void the gift.
Voiding the bequest was the "draconian" suggestion of former House Democratic Counsel Stanley Brand: "I don't know how else you remedy it," Brand told The Washington Post.
Republicans and Democrats alike ought to demand no less. Regardless of her qualifications, they should seriously question the junior senator from New York about her husband's global money-making, and how it might affect her performance as secretary of state -- not to mention America's foreign policy.
The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of Leslie Sanchez.

"They're looking for excuses to hate. The entire forum is chock full of misrepresentation, personal attacks, dreadful logic, and more." 'The Question Evolution Project'.
A perfect description of Cowboy Bob's facebook pages. And if you disagree with their claims there you get censored, banned and then vilified.
By contrast if you disagree factually with something on this forum (where personal attacks do appear but speaking for myself I always try to be fair and factual, and correct any errors) you (ie anyone) can say so (as Mister Gordons did). We are not the ones deliberately posting lies or non-factual comments and then banning people from correcting the lies or errors. But the liar Sorensen only has enough courage to shout from afar that we are all (including me) posting misrepresentations and lies. He does not have the courage to come here and say that (not even in his usual vague and non-specific way). Everyone can see why. Most of the time his claims that I have posted 'lies' here are themselves complete lies that he cannot possibly defend. His excuse for his mendacity? The judgmental tosh that 'lying is what atheopaths do'. (So I guess Trump must be an atheopath too.)

As the largest telecom and IT service provider in the Netherlands, KPN needs to maintain high service levels. The key business challenge for the company was to have a more mature monitoring solution in place to prevent incidents.
Improve the stability and performance of the IT services offered to KPN's customers.
Institutionalize the continual improvement of the monitoring solution to support an ever-changing environment.
Develop an integrated framework covering people, process and tool aspects.
Practical approach: First focus on activities that provide quick results to maximize output.
Implemented an end-to-end monitoring solution from design to maintenance
24/7 monitoring and command center
Helped KPN centralize technical monitoring to one simplified tool
Helped KPN upgrade to
OEM 12cR4
KPN approached Accenture Technology to improve the monitoring capabilities for its business chains. Together the two companies designed a multi-step monitoring roadmap.
To help the client achieve its objectives, Accenture Technology's monitoring solution addressed the technical, organizational and process aspects to ensure integration with KPN's daily operations.
Accenture Technology also created the monitoring blueprint, catalog and the embedding process to the regular Application Outsourcing services.
Prevented more than €7 million in damages in the first 4 months
Delivered and maintaining a 24/7 Command Center to prevent incidents
Achieved minimal impact by preventing incidents in the BSS domain
Improved technical vertical and horizontal monitoring with one central tool
KPN's collaboration with Accenture Technology has been a remarkable success. KPN achieved higher quality and predictability on their domain. Increased focus on preventing incidents also led to an integrated future proof monitoring solution, supported by event management processes and a command center supporting Oracle, Linux and Microsoft across several layers on the landscape (server, OS Database & Applications).
Having the command centre in place during the evening has led to incidents that would otherwise cause business or customer impact at night or during business hours to be prevented.
KPN chose Accenture Technology as its managed services provider in a streamlined, sole-source procurement based on their strong relationship.
Over the years, by successfully demonstrating its capabilities and recommended practices in Oracle BSS for communications, in January 2015, KPN added an extended support of the 24/7 command centre to the existing BSS maintenance contract until its end in 2017.
KPN is a communications, media and information services company that services more than 11.5 million subscribers in the Netherlands. It seeks to ensure that its customers benefit from the latest and greatest innovations available in the market, along with offering the highest possible levels of customer service and support, which is a key market differentiator.

Home Interior Decorating
In order to do apartment interior design on your own, you have to have some type of plan and some type of budget. If you know how much you can spend, you can start thinking about what you want to spend that money on. If your landlord grants you permission to paint, that can really change things up for you. If you are in a smaller apartment, you can go with one color and paint with variations of that color to keep it uniform. You can mix and match different colors in different rooms with a larger apartment. Spend as much time as you need because you are going to have to love what you choose. Next, go for curtains, throw pillows, and even a couch cover to add color that compliments what you have put on the wall. Go with a neutral color for your couch, as you can add color to it with the pillows. If you are not sure about pillows, sew your own. You may love something bright and colorful, but you always want your couch to match anything, making neutral essential for this piece of furniture. The pillows are interchangeable and are much less expensive to change. Your curtains can be the same as the pillows ?change them as your mood changes for apartment interior design. You may not want to spend a lot on finishing touches for apartment interior design, so see about saving money. Go to rummage sales, thrift stores, and even take a trip through your parent's attic to see what you can find to fill your walls or sit on your shelves. Even old books can look great, even if you will never read them. Look for old glass bottles and vases, small boxes that may have been jewelry boxes or small chests, aged photographs and even old jewelry as decorative accents for your new design ideas. These can make a good room into a great room.

Asymptotic-Induced Domain Decomposition Methods for Kinetic and Drift Diffusion Semiconductor Equations (1995)
This paper deals with domain decomposition methods for kinetic and drift diffusion semiconductor equations. In particular accurate coupling conditions at the interface between the kinetic and drift diffusion domain are given. The cases of slight and strong nonequilibrium situations at the interface are considered and some numerical examples are shown.
A way to derive consistently kinetic models for vehicular traffic from microscopic follow the leader models is presented. The obtained class of kinetic equations is investigated. Explicit examples for kinetic models are developed with a particular emphasis on obtaining models, that give realistic results. For space homogeneous traffic flow situations numerical examples are given including stationary distributions and fundamental diagrams.
This survey contains a description of different types of mathematical models used for the simulation of vehicular traffic. It includes models based on ordinary differential equations, fluid dynamic equations and on equations of kinetic type. Connections between the different types of models are mentioned. Particular emphasis is put on kinetic models and on simulation methods for these models.

Looking forward?
I look forward to Bowman Properties' redevelopment of the Magarity site, have great respect for Runyan & Associates' architectural work on it and hope the prospect of a Fresh Market a couple doors down spurs the imagination of Weavers Way about how to bring down high prices.
I can't wrap my head around why zoning changes would not be able to go through the regular zoning process, but I do understand how Bowman's representative, Ballard Spahr attorney and former candidate for Philadelphia's 4th District council seat, Matt McClure, would find getting City Council to pass legislation down in City Hall a lot less troublesome than dealing with the Magarity neighbors.

Janet Gilmore does it again!
Another great column by Janet Gilmore (No 'Soccer Mom,' but she knows opposing players 'Suck!' July 7 issue). I love the idea that soccer could be hard to understand. I think Janet should start calling sport-babble radio shows and complaining.

Beware of phony Appeals for help
I would like to alert readers of the Local to a current scam. Today I received an email from a name I did not recognize, asking for money. Here is what it said, word for word:
"Hope you get this on time, I made a trip to London, England, and had my bag stolen from me with my passport and personal effects therein. The embassy is willing to help by letting me fly without my passport. I just have to pay for a ticket and settle hotel bills. Unfortunately for me, I can't have access to funds.
"I've made contact with my bank, but they need more time to come up with a new one. I was thinking of asking you to lend me some quick funds that I can give back as soon as I get in. I really need to be on the next available flight. I can forward you details on how you can get the funds to me. I await your response…"
Evalyn Segal
Mt. Airy
(Ed. Note: Recently many people in Chestnut Hill received an email message almost identical to this one from a woman who has written articles for the Local over the years. When we called the woman in question, she said she had not been to London and had certainly not sent the email. It turned out that somebody had hacked into her email account and sent the phony appeal for money to everyone in her email address book. She had to get a new email address, of course. So beware of these phony appeals for your money.)

Now working in Transport but am starting doing consulting in my spare time to companies I used to work for. If things go well I can grow to more clients.
Corporate clients. Need to create an image of professionalism.
Initially in tourism industry, but wanting to spread to more industries so don't want to constrain it. Pitching to top management level people, so need to look like I am up to it. Don't want to be written off as being too smalltime.
I want a logo that i can use on a website, business cards and letterheads.
Key to me is to make it look professional. it's just 1 person part time today, But I want to create an image of being serious and big time. think Mckinsey, Boston Consulting, etc.
When someone looks at my business card or website I want them to be impressed. I don't want them to think "this guy made his logo himself".
That doesn't mean it needs to be super complicated, but needs to have a professional, someone spent a lot of money designing this look and feel.
