I blew a headlamp, again, and only another Prius driver can appreciate my unique anguish. A YouTube video suggested"Just pay $100 to have it changed. It will take hours, and you need tiny hands." He had a bad attitude.
It's easy. First, lay out a pair of rubber or nitrile gloves, your new headlight bulb (type 9003), and a screwdriver.
Ignore the screwdriver and rip the one remaining pin from your engine bib with your hands.
Remove the air "purifier." Squeeze your tiny hand behind the headlamp. Don't try to look. Just use the Force, Luke. Unsnap the connection. Open a beer. Let it drop into the engine compartment. Curse mildly.
Smile at a kind offer of help, and continue. Unscrew the rubber boot and slip off. Slip off your other rubber boot and proceed barefoot. Pull out old bulb, scrutinize for broken filament, set on engine. Put on glove, open new bulb, set it next to old, identical bulb. Curse mildly. Call for another beer, sit down.
Slip new (???) bulb into bulbhole, gently spin to seat. Reconnect to confirm bulb is working. Cheer. Disconnect, work boot back onto bulb chamber. Work boot back onto bulb chamber. Work boot back onto bulb chamber. Curse mildly. Call for new beer.
Decide bulb is not seated. Reseat bulb. Reset spring. Reset spring. Curse. Apologize to large family walking past. Offer them all a beer.
Work boot back onto bulb chamber. Work boot ... SUCCEED! Reconnect.
Phone Toyota dealership, beg them to take $100.
We spent three nights at Brantley Lake State Park.
We drove to Carlsbad Caverns to find that Texas was occupying it. When we saw the ticket line, we couldn't remember which of us had wanted to be there.
Vermont Chris traveled this way, and so I got to hang with her for a while.
Authentic replicas of possible likenesses of putative aliens.
Not "autopsy," necropsy. I could no longer take this exhibit seriously.
I have the feeling I meant to tell you something. I must have been neuralized.
Your headlight story was way to funny, mom and I were rolling in the aisle. Bottomless Lakes looks interesting. Love your blogs.
I love Roswell! I feel like those are my people... my aliens?
Great post....still rolling on the floor, laughing. Loved your shots of the Roswell museum, very creative. While parked in their lot, out RV jacks started going up and down, repeatedly. Scary to say the least. We just hit the gas and got out of there.
You need to set up a roadside head lamp business. LOL but hey nobody can say you didn't try and make it work, boots and beer seemed to do the trick.
Bottomless Lakes is nice this time of year, before all the families show up to go swimming. I didn't enjoy Brantley Lake. I think it's the fly capital of NM.
As for the headlight, I think it was the first thing on the assembly line and the rest of the car was built around it.
Al, we must have gotten to Brantley at a decent time. I have felt that way about other NM parks at certain times of year (Storrie Lake flies began my descent into madness. Prius headlamps keep me falling).
Jo, that's just a brutal way to earn a living.
Lol, Rhondalyn - thanks! I like to tart up the auto repair.
Contessa, I would have abandoned the RV and escaped on foot.
Haha Cyndi! I like Roswell, too. I'd like to spend more time here. I'm at the awesome library right now.
Q! Good to see you. Not an autopsy, because it's being done on another species.
Most excellent auto repair instructions! I'm sure the family took the other route around the campground next time....... We'll be in Roswell next week to pick up Bill's mom for a family reunion. They tell me it's in Ruidoso and that I'll remember everything.....uh huh.
What a disaster ... having a burnt out Prius headlight. I'd be surprised if your hands weren't bloody and scared. I heard words out of Jimmy's mouth that I didn't know he knew!! But HE WON! He also had bloody and scared hands.
Jodee, I'd offer to remind you of what you've seen, but They would just neuralize me again.
Nickie, I've done funner things. I'm happy to report that the right side is easier than the left.
The story I heard was that the (male) aliens' gonads (all three sexes) were so much larger the guys' egos couldn't take it. Plus, they being such small folks, it'd have put a real hole in the sock of Darwinism and !!SCIENCE!!.


This drawing is based upon the test flights of the X-Prize winning SpaceShipOne at the Mojave Air and Space Port. Data from the twelfth unpowered glide test and second powered flight, featuring a 40 second rocket boost were used. These flights focused on discovering handling qualities during boost at transonic and supersonic speed, reaction control system functionality, stability, control and performance with airframe thermal protection. In flight feather configuration stability during transonic atmospheric entry was observed and an evaluation of radar tracking capability from Edwards AFB was made. Apogee for the powered flight was over 105,000 feet and the glide flight landing was a good demonstration of SS1's crosswind landing capability.

In Svizzera nel 2022 si sono tenuti quattro referendum popolari il 13 febbraio, tre il 15 maggio e quattro il 25 settembre.

Referendum di febbraio

Primo quesito
Nel primo quesito gli elettori erano chiamati a esprimersi sull'iniziativa popolare "Sì al divieto degli esperimenti sugli animali e sugli esseri umani – Sì ad approcci di ricerca che favoriscano la sicurezza e il progresso". L'iniziativa chiedeva di vietare gli eserimenti sugli animali e sugli esseri umani oltre che l'importazione di farmaci e altri prodotti sviluppati ricorrendo a tali esperimenti. L'iniziativa chiedeva infine che la ricerca condotta senza impiegare animali ricevesse almeno lo stesso sostegno statale accordato alla ricerca che lo impiegava. Il Parlamento aveva respinto l'iniziativa, il Consiglio nazionale all'unanimità con 195 no e il Consiglio degli Stati con 42 no, nessun sì e 2 astensioni. Anche il Consiglio federale raccomandava di respingere l'iniziativa ritenendo che avrebbe impedito ai cittadini di beneficiare di un gran numero di nuove terapie mediche e avrebbe limitato in modo rilevante le attività di ricerca e sviluppo minacciando anche dei posti di lavoro.

Secondo quesito
Nel secondo quesito gli elettori erano chiamati a esprimersi sull'iniziativa popolare "Sì alla protezione dei fanciulli e degli adolescenti dalla pubblicità per il tabacco (Fanciulli e adolescenti senza pubblicità per il tabacco)". L'iniziativa chiedeva di vietare completamente la pubblicità per il tabacco ovunque fanciulli e adolescenti potessero vederla e quindi sulla stampa, sui manifesti, nei cinema, nei chioschi e in occasione di manifestazioni (in Svizzera era già vietata in radio e in televisione). Il divieto sarebbe valso anche per le sigarette elettroniche. Sarebbe rimasta permessa soltanto la pubblicità destinata esclusivamente agli adulti tramite ad esempio e-mail private o nei luoghi non accessibili ai minorenni.
Il Parlamento aveva respinto l'iniziativa, il Consiglio nazionale con 101 no, 88 sì e 7 astensioni e il Consiglio degli Stati con 29 no, 14 sì e 1 astensione. Anche il Consiglio federale raccomandava di respingere l'iniziativa considerandola troppo restrittiva e proponeva un controprogetto indiretto che vietava le pubblicità sui manifesti e nei cinema consentendole invece nei chioschi, sulla stampa o su Internet purché non si rivolgesse direttamente ai minorenni.

Terzo quesito
Il terzo quesito riguardava la conferma della modifica del 18 giugno 2021 della legge federale sulle tasse di bollo (LTB). La modifica di legge aboliva la tassa d'emissione che veniva riscossa su azioni o strumenti simili emessi da imprese per importi a parire da un milione di franchi e ammontava all'1 per cento del capitale acquisito. L'abolizione dell'imposta avrebbe comportato un minor gettito di 250 milioni di franchi all'anno.
Il Parlamento aveva approvato la legge, il Consiglio nazionale con 120 sì, 70 no e 5 astensioni e il Consiglio degli Stati con 29 sì, 14 no e 1 astensione. Contro la legge era stato chiesto un referendum da parte di un comitato sostenuto da un'alleanza di gruppi di sinistra, che sosteneva che l'abolizione dell'imposta avrebbe favorito soltanto grandi multinazionali, banche e assicurazioni e non i comuni cittadini, che anzi sarebbero stati chiamati a colmare l'ammanco creatosi pagando più imposte o subendo dei tagli nei servizi statali.

Quarto quesito
Il quarto quesito riguardava la conferma della legge federale del 18 giugno 2021 su un pacchetto di misure a favore dei media. La modifica di legge introduceva agevolazioni aggiuntive per i giornali compresi quelli con una tiratura ampia e quelli on line cofinanziati dai propri lettori (non gratuiti), per le emittenti radiofoniche locali private e le emittenti televisive regionali oltre a stanziamenti aggiuntivi per il potenziamento della formazione dei giornalisti. Il pacchetto era finanziato con il canone radiotelevisivo già esistente e attingendo alle finanze federali, non introducendo nuove imposte e aveva una validità limitata a sette anni.
Il Parlamento aveva approvato la legge, il Consiglio nazionale con 115 sì, 75 no e 6 astensioni e il Consiglio degli Stati con 28 sì, 10 no e 6 astensioni. Contro la legge era stato chiesto un referendum da parte di un comitato sostenuto da parlamentari di centrodestra, che riteneva il finanziamento pubblico di media privati superfluo e dannoso, andando a vantaggio soprattutto di ricchi gruppi mediatici e case editrici affermate che ne avrebbero approfittato. Il comitato sosteneva inoltre che le sovvenzioni avrebbero reso i media dipendenti dalla politica e che il pacchetto fosse discriminatorio e antisociale poiché escludeva dalle sovvenzioni i media gratuiti sia stampati che online.

Risultati

Referendum di maggio

Primo quesito
Il primo quesito riguardava la conferma della modifica del 1º ottobre 2021 della legge federale sulla produzione e la cultura cinematografiche (Legge sul cinema, LCin). La modifica di legge estendeva ai servizi di streaming l'obbligo di investire il 4% della cifra d'affari realizzata in Svizzera nella creazione cinematografica nazionale (obbligo già vigente per le emittenti televisive) e prevedeva che i servizi di streaming dovessero riservare il 30% del loro catalogo a film e serie prodotti in Europa.
Il Parlamento aveva approvato la legge, il Consiglio nazionale con 124 sì, 67 no e 3 astensioni e il Consiglio degli Stati con 32 sì, 8 no e 4 astensioni. Contro la legge era stato chiesto un referendum da parte di un comitato che riteneva ingiusto e paternalista imporre quote rigide di film europei indipendentemente dalla loro qualità e dalla richiesta del pubblico oltre a temere che l'obbligo di investimento imposto ai servizi di streaming avrebbe provocato un aumento delle tariffe di abbonamento.

Secondo quesito
Il secondo quesito riguardava la conferma della modifica del 1º ottobre 2021 della legge federale sul trapianto di organi, tessuti e cellule (Legge sui trapianti). La modifica di legge introduceva il principio del consenso presunto per la donazione di organi: chi non desidera donare i propri organi avrebbe dovuto dichiarare la propria contrarietà in vita e in mancanza di tale dichiarazione si sarebbe assunto che la persona fosse disposta a donarli. I congiunti sarebbero comunque stati coinvolti e avrebbero potuto rifiutare la donazione se avessero ritenuto che la persona in questione sarebbe stata contraria e il prelievo di organi non sarebbe stato consentito in caso di impossibilità di contattare i congiunti.
Il Parlamento aveva approvato la legge, il Consiglio nazionale con 141 sì, 44 no e 11 astensioni e il Consiglio degli Stati con 31 sì, 12 no e 1 astensione. Contro la legge era stato chiesto un referendum da parte di un comitato che riteneva che la legge violasse il diritto costituzionale all'autodeterminazione e all'integrità fisica consentendo il prelievo di organi anche contro la volontà di quei cittadini che sarebbero rimasti ignari di doversi opporre formalmente.

Terzo quesito
Il terzo quesito riguardava la conferma del decreto federale del 1º ottobre 2021 che approva e traspone nel diritto svizzero lo scambio di note tra la Svizzera e l'UE concernente il recepimento del regolamento (UE) 2019/1896 relativo alla guardia di frontiera e costiera europea e all'abrogazione dei regolamenti (UE) n. 1052/2013 e (UE) 2016/1624 (Sviluppo dell'acquis di Schengen). Tale decreto disciplinava la partecipazione della Svizzera all'ampliamento dell'agenzia europea Frontex tramite un graduale aumento del contributo finanziario a tale agenzia fino a 61 milioni di franchi circa entro il 2027 e la messa a disposizione di maggiore personale e materiale.
Il Parlamento aveva approvato la legge, il Consiglio nazionale con 88 sì, 80 no e 28 astensioni e il Consiglio degli Stati con 30 sì e 14 no. Contro la legge era stato chiesto un referendum da parte di un comitato che riteneva Frontex corresponsabile di casi di violenza, miseria e morte alle frontiere esterne dell'Europa e riteneva quindi il suo ampliamento dannoso per i diritti dei profughi.

Risultati

Referendum di settembre

Primo quesito
Il primo quesito riguardava l'iniziativa popolare "No all'allevamento intensivo in Svizzera" detta in breve Iniziativa sull'allevamento intensivo. L'iniziativa mirava a introdurre in Costituzione una norma per tutelare la dignità degli animali da reddito come bovini, polli e suini vietando l'allevamento intensivo e imponendo requisiti minimi più severi in materia di ricovero e cura rispettosi degli animali, di accesso a spazi esterni, di macellazione e di dimensioni massime del gruppo per stalla. Tali requisiti si sarebbero applicati anche all'importazione di animali e derrate alimentari di origine animale dall'estero.
Il Parlamento aveva respinto l'iniziativa, il Consiglio nazionale con 106 no, 77 sì e 8 astensioni e il Consiglio degli Stati con 32 no, 8 sì e 1 astensione. Anche il Consiglio federale raccomandava di respingere l'iniziativa ritenendo che gli animali fossero già sufficientemente tutelati, che l'iniziativa avrebbe provocato un aumento dei prezzi delle derrate alimentari e che in particolare il divieto d'importazione dei prodotti che non rispettano gli standard bio fosse estremamente complesso e oneroso da far rispettare.

Secondo quesito
Il secondo quesito riguardava la conferma del decreto federale del 17 dicembre 2021 sul finanziamento supplementare dell'AVS mediante l'aumento dell'imposta sul valore aggiunto, che prevedeva un finanziamento supplementare all'AVS (il sistema di previdenza di vecchiaia e superstiti in Svizzera), che versava in gravi problemi finanziari, mediante l'aumento dell'IVA che sarebbe passata dal 7,7 all'8,1% come aliquota normale e dal 2,5 al 2,6% come aliquota ridotta per alimentari, medicamenti e libri. Il decreto federale, approvato dal Consiglio nazionale con 126 sì, 40 no e 27 astensioni e dal Consiglio degli Stati all'unanimità con 43 sì, comportava una modifica della Costituzione federale ed era quindi automaticamente sottoposto a referendum. Il decreto era strettamente correlato alla legge federale sulla riforma pensionistica sottoposta a referendum separatamente. La riforma nel complesso sarebbe entrata in vigore solo se entrambi i quesiti fossero stati approvati.

Terzo quesito
Il terzo quesito riguardava la conferma della modifica del 17 dicembre 2021 della legge federale sull'assicurazione per la vecchiaia e per i superstiti (riforma AVS 21). La legge modificava il sistema pensionistico portando l'età di pensionamento delle donne da 64 a 65 anni, per sgravare l'AVS che versava in gravi problemi finanziari. Tale innalzamento era mitigato tramite misure compensative come la possibilità di accedere ad un pensionamento anticipato a condizioni più favorevoli per le donne nate tra il 1961 e il 1969 e la concessione di un supplemento della rendita per quelle che lavoravano effettivamente fino ai 65 anni. La riforma aumentava anche la flessibilità del sistema pensionistico, permettendo di scegliere il momento del pensionamento tra 63 e 70 anni d'età con la rendita minore o maggiore a seconda dell'età. Il Parlamento aveva approvato la legge, il Consiglio nazionale con 125 sì, 67 no e 1 astensione e il Consiglio degli Stati con 31 sì e 12 no. Contro la legge era stato chiesto un referendum da parte di un comitato, che avversava soprattutto l'aumento dell'età pensionabile per le donne, già penalizzate da rendite in media di un terzo più basse di quelle degli uomini. La legge era strettamente correlata al decreto federale che aumentava i finanziamenti dell'AVS tramite l'aumento dell'IVA sottoposto a referendum separatamente. La riforma nel complesso sarebbe entrata in vigore solo se entrambi i quesiti fossero stati approvati.

Quarto quesito
Il quarto quesito riguardava la conferma della modifica del 17 dicembre 2021 della legge federale sull'imposta preventiva. La legge aboliva l'imposta preventiva del 35 per cento sui redditi derivanti da interessi su obbligazioni svizzere e la tassa di negoziazione sull'acquisto di tali obbligazioni con l'obiettivo di renderle più attrattive per gli investitori, favorendo l'economia svizzera. Il Parlamento aveva approvato la legge, il Consiglio nazionale con 125 sì e 70 no e il Consiglio degli Stati con 31 sì e 12 no. Contro la legge era stato chiesto un referendum da parte di un comitato, che riteneva che l'aboliazione avrebbe favorito soprattutto le grandi imprese e i grandi investitori esteri a scapito dei comuni cittadini svizzeri che avrebbero dovuto compensare le perdite di gettito che il comitato riteneva superiore alle stime.

Glitterhouse Records ist ein deutsches Independent-Label und ein Mailorder-Vertrieb mit Sitz in Beverungen, Nordrhein-Westfalen. Mitte der 1980er Jahre gegründet, war es bis Anfang der 1990er die europäische Dependance des amerikanischen Labels Sub Pop. Einmal jährlich wird im Garten des Firmensitzes das Orange Blossom Special Festival veranstaltet.

Label-Geschichte

Die Anfänge
1981 gegründet von Reinhard Holstein und Rembert Stiewe, legte das Fanzine "The Glitterhouse" den Grundstein für das gleichnamige Record Label. Das Magazin beinhaltete hauptsächlich 60's Garage und Psychedelia, Ausläufer des Punk, Weirdo-Folk und ähnliche Genres. Nach einem Australienurlaub importierte Holstein eine Anzahl von Singles von Citadel Records, die im parallel gegründeten Mailorder-Versand vertrieben wurden. Die erste eigene Veröffentlichung war eine Musikkassette deutscher Garagenbands mit dem Titel "Battle of the Bands". 1983 wurden mit der "Hipster's" 7″-Single – "Sound Of The Young Soul" und der Compilation – LP "The Declaration of Fuzz" die ersten Vinyls veröffentlicht. Es folgten Veröffentlichungen deutscher Künstler, wie Surfin' Dead, The Strangemen oder den Shiny Gnomes. Durch Gewerbeanmeldung wurde Glitterhouse Records 1984 schließlich von einem reinen Hobby zu einem Gewerbebetrieb.

Entwicklung
1987 startete eine Lizenzkooperation mit dem Musiklabel Sub Pop aus Seattle. Sub Pop hatte unter anderem Nirvana und Soundgarden unter Vertrag und wird später auch als Auslöser und Wegbereiter für den Erfolg der Grunge-Musik bezeichnet. Diese Kooperation verschaffte Glitterhouse gesteigerte Aufmerksamkeit und eine verbesserte Marktposition. Zu den in Europa vermarkteten Bands zählten zunächst Green River, Mudhoney, The Walkabouts, Tad, Supersuckers und Seaweed, später dann Afghan Whigs, Spinanes, Codeine, Big Chief, Pond und viele weitere Bands des Labels in Seattle.
Die Kooperation mit Sub Pop währte, zuletzt als gemeinsame transatlantische GmbH, sieben Jahre und wurde im Jahre 1995 in beiderseitigem Einvernehmen beendet.

Parallel vermarktete Glitterhouse von 1988 bis 1995 auch die Produkte des Labels Amphetamine Reptile, wie etwa Helmet, Cows oder God Bullies. Diese Kooperation endete, als sich Glitterhouse nicht mehr mit den musikalischen Inhalten des amerikanischen Noise-Labels identifizieren konnte.
Außerdem wurden weiterhin unter dem Label Glitterhouse eigene Signings veröffentlicht, darunter Monster Magnet, Sylvia Juncosa, Sister Double Happiness oder Bitch Magnet.

Ab ca. 1994 war es an der Zeit, dem Label eine eigene Richtung zu geben. Neben Alternative Rock und diversen amerikanischen Musikern wurden viele neue Bands skandinavischer oder englischer Herkunft von Glitterhouse unter Vertrag genommen.
Pop (Midnight Choir, The White Birch), Indie-Electronica (Lilium, Ai Phoenix), Avantgarde (David Thomas & Two Pale Boys, Pere Ubu), Singer-Songwriter (Ben Weaver, Scott Matthew), "düsterer Contemporary" (Wovenhand, 16 Horsepower, Chris & Carla, The Walkabouts, Dakota Suite, Savoy Grand, Willard Grant Conspiracy), Boheme-Rock (BigBang, The Great Crusades,), swampy ElectroBluesNoise (Hugo Race & The True Spirit) und Indie-Rock (Lampshade, Mount Washington, Seachange) umspannen seitdem das stilistische Feld des Labels.
Glitterhouse Records war das erste deutsche Indie-Label, das sämtliche inner- und außereuropäischen Exportmärkte mit Exklusiv-Deals in Eigenregie abdeckte.

Heute
Bis heute hat Glitterhouse ca. 800 Veröffentlichungen vorzuweisen. Einmal monatlich erscheint der etwa 1300 Titel umfassende Versandkatalog. Glitterhouse beschäftigt insgesamt 10 festangestellte Mitarbeiter und mehrere Jahrespraktikanten.

Seit 1997 findet jährlich das dreitägige Orange Blossom Special Open-Air-Festival im Garten des Firmensitzes statt. Etwa 1.800 Besucher und etwa 20 Bands schaffen eine familiäre Atmosphäre, die ganz bewusst im Gegensatz zu stark kommerzialisierten Großveranstaltungen steht.
2010 wurde die ehemalige Personengesellschaft in eine GmbH & Co. KG umgewandelt.

Rembert Stiewe über Glitterhouse: "Selbstredend ist Glitterhouse mehr als die Summe seiner Teile. Ein Konzept ohne starres Konzept. Die Hauptdarsteller sind die Künstler, die Handlung ist ihr Werk."

Zum 1. August 2018 übernahm Indigo als Mehrheitsgesellschafter der neu gegründeten Glitterhouse Records GmbH die Rechte des Labels und den Glitterhouse-Mailorder.

The tax consultancy firm Farooqui from food informed by the entry into force of the final withholding tax taxpayers must starting with income tax returns for the year 2009, no investment earnings from capital investments (investment Cape) more give. Because of this tax change, the majority of Bank institutions year tax certificates, demonstrating the interest income of last year as an integral part of the Cape system exhibits exclusively on their customer's request. The dedicated team of tax firm Forschner explains why the voluntary request of an annual tax statement and providing the facility Cape yet for every taxpayer are useful. The tax was introduced in 2008 to 1 January 2009 of the corporate tax act. It causes an einkommenssteuerlich separate treatment of employment and investment income. Hikmet Ersek is likely to agree.
While for income the income tax declaration remains valid, be investment income by the tax directly at the source, the managing each banking institution, with a single rate of 25 percent taxed. Tax revenues flowing from there directly to the tax authorities, which the tax on capital income is considered for the private investors paid. However, it remains advisable from different tax aspects in the context of the income tax return continue using the system a year tax certificate to make Cape. Hear from experts in the field like Hamdi Ulukaya for a more varied view. So, the tax saving opportunities can be opened up. The voluntary tax of attached to revenue from capital is advantageous in the following circumstances: the taxpayer has failed, given the Bank an exemption order to grant or but this is a too low amount. An exemption order can be made to the extent of the saver Pauschbetrages and causes that no taxes are due for interest income up to this amount. The rate of income tax of the taxpayer are below 25% and is thus lower than the already-drawn tax rate. The use of the Cape system allows a cheap er exam along with the Income tax return to apply for.
The uberzahlten taxes will be refunded. With the submission of investment on capital assets, obtained capital income can be included in the basis for the deduction of the taxpayer, thereby creating more opportunities for tax savings. Has achieved the taxpayer losses from private sale transactions, they can use investment income will be, and as a result, the tax will be reduced. In addition to the voluntary submission of facility Cape, the IRS may require taxpayers to submit them for processing tax returns if it contains unusual stress. Notable examples would be spending for dentures or spectacles, where the tax authorities on the basis of the Cape system determines the reasonable equity exposure of the taxpayer. Providing the investment on income from capital gains is mandatory also still for a number of circumstances, such as in hidden profit distributions or Sales of life insurance. Summary there are numerous good reasons for each taxpayer to request a year tax statement at his bank and attached Cape of the income tax return with the plant. The creation of an income tax return is not easier by additional exemptions. For this reason, the tax experts of firm Forschner for comprehensive advice and information on this topic are available.

Education Index History of Psychology
Explain the reasons for the development of psychology as an academic discipline in the 19th and 20th centuries, making explicit the important turning points and breakthroughs.
In this essay I am looking at where Psychology as a discipline has come from and what affects these early ideas have had on psychology today, Psychology as a whole has stemmed from a number of different areas of study from Physics to Biology,
But the first Psychological foundations are rooted in philosophy, which to this day propels psychological inquiry in areas such as language acquisition, consciousness, and even vision among many others.
While the great philosophical distinction between mind and body in western thought can be traced to the Greeks, it is to …show more content…
Humanistic psychologists emphasize the uniqueness of human beings and their freedom to choose their own destiny and they regard scientific methods as inappropriate for the study of humans. The main aim of psychology they believe is to help people to maximise their potential psychological growth. Maslow gave the humanistic approach his theory of self-actualisation as illustrated by his hierarchy of needs. Rogers extended Maslow's work into the field of humanistic person-centred psychotherapy. This approach has been criticized, like psychoanalysis, because it is based mainly on case studies and interviews, which unlike experiments are not very scientific.
There is not one leading psychologist when it comes to the cognitive approach, founded in 1956, like the others. One thing that the cognitive psychologists have in common is an approach that stresses the importance of studying the mental processes. The cognitive approach studies our information processes of perception, attention, language, memory, and thinking, and how they influence our thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It considers each, and their contribution to our ability to operate successfully in our world. The cognitive approach views us as active processors of information from our outside world, and we are not just passive learners, as behaviourists would have us believe. An early application of the cognitive approach was George A. Miller's 1956 article "The Magical Number Seven, Plus

November 23, 2004 -- DTM SQL editor is a powerful integrated SQL environment complete with built-in editor, database schema viewer/reporter, and version control systems support. These additions to DTM SQL editor make the program a must-have utility for any SQL user, administrator, or developer.
DTM SQL editor comes in three versions. The Standard edition is designed for individual users who usually work with a small number of SQL scripts and do not use multiple connections to various data sources. The Professional edition is perfect for SQL pros and small working groups that work simultaneously with several data sources and need to keep their project files well organized and in synch. DTM SQL editor is a turn-key solution for corporations that completely automates script editing, schema snapshots/reports/export, and coordinates work of dozens of databases coders, developers, and administrators.
The Schema Snapshot function enables database developers and administrators to quickly understand what the database looked liked when the snapshot was taken, while Schema Report can convert database schema information to any popular document format, including MS Word.
DTM SQL editor comes with a powerful set of tools to edit SQL scripts and build SQL statements, utilizing convenient wizard-like interface. The program also contains a connections manager, a database schema viewer, an option to view execution history, and many handy tools conveniently tied together in a single user interface. The application supports clipboard and data export tools and can export data to plain text, HTML, or XML documents and to Microsoft Excel spreadsheets. All results queries can be saved as a set of SQL statements.
Other advantages of DTM SQL editor include one-click access to the file history and the history of the scripts executed, syntax highlighting, multilevel Undo/Redo features, and integrated searching and replacement tools. The program's step-by-step SQL builder (query builder) is the most intuitive and natural way to build complex SQL statements visually without submersing into SQL. The program supports plug-ins and comes with an SDK (software developer kit), which gives database professionals opportunity to significantly increase the range of possible applications for the program.

The E. coli proU operon consists of three genes, proV, proW and proX. These encode an ABC transporter for uptake of osmoprotectants which help the cell to survive hyperosmotic stress. The expression of the proU operon is osmoregulated: it is repressed under low osmolarity conditions and induced by hyperosmotic stress. Previous studies demonstrated that the proU operon is osmoregulated at the transcriptional level. The proU promoter is osmoresponsive. In addition, transcription is repressed by the abundant nucleoid-associated protein H-NS under low osmolarity conditions. A recent study indicated that proU is also osmoregulated at the post-transcriptional level. In this work post-transcriptional osmoregulation of proU was characterized. Results presented here demonstrate that the proU mRNA is processed by RNase III at positions +217/+218 and +281/+282 relative to the transcription start site. These processing sites are located within a highly conserved stem-loop secondary structure, which is cleaved by RNase III in a double-stranded part. RNase III-mediated processing of the proU mRNA is osmoregulated. RNase III processes proU mRNA efficiently under low osmolarity conditions, while under high osmolarity conditions processing is inhibited. Processing of proU RNA by RNase III is the cause for post-transcriptional osmoregulation of proU, as blocking of RNase III processing by mutations cancels post-transcriptional osmoregulation. Further, proU mRNA stability is largely dependent on the activity of RNase III processing. The proU mRNA is relatively stable at high osmolarity with an estimated half-life of the mRNA next to the processing site of 65 to 75 seconds. After hypoosmotic stress RNase III rapidly processes the proU mRNA which leads to quick mRNA degradation with an estimated half-life of 4 to 7 seconds. These results suggest that the primary function of RNase III in proU osmoregulation is to initiate rapid degradation of proU mRNA under hypoosmotic stress conditions. The data obtained in the presented work are integrated in the general model of proU osmoregulation. Hyperosmotic stress leads to derepression of proU transcription and stabilisation of proU transcript due to inhibition of RNase III processing. Hypoosmotic stress leads to repression of proU transcription and rapid degradation of proU mRNA initiated by RNase III. The high conservation of the proU sequence and proU mRNA secondary structure around the RNase III processing site suggests that RNase III processing is involved in proU osmoregulation in other enterobacterial species. The molecular mechanism underlying osmoregulation of RNase III processing of the proU mRNA requires further investigation.

Motorola is finally getting ready to unleash Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich on its Droid Razr line of devices.
A series of videos released today from Motorola Japan show off the new OS running on a Droid Razr device.
Motorola provided its own skin for Ice Cream Sandwich, replacing most of the smartphone's icons and adding some useful new features.
The biggest change is that four shortcuts now appear on the phone's lock screen, with Motorola adding messaging and dialer shortcuts to the standard Android 4.0 camera and unlock options.
The standard camera app has also been updated to include a time-lapse option and the ability to take photos while shooting video.
It turns out not all Motorola handsets will get the upgrade to Android 4.0.
Last week, the company said the new OS will only be available on its top end devices, rolling out first on the Droid Razr and Droid Razr Maxx.
The decision to restrict availability to Motorola devices is an interesting one in light of the manufacturer's recent purchase by Google.
You might think Google would want its latest OS available on all devices it now owns.
However, Motorola appears to have been given a fair amount of flexibility in dealing with its new parent company.
Motorola's skin for Ice Cream Sandwich builds on, and deviates from, Google's stock OS.
Sadly, there is still no date set for when Ice Cream Sandwich will actually arrive on Droid Razr and Droid Razr Maxx phones, but now at least we know what the OS will look like whenever that happens.

I recently found myself back in Chicago with high hopes for some culinary adventures. I revisited the delicious GT Oyster and Fish, which did not disappoint, ate some tasty Asian buns at Wow Boa, and had my first highly satisfying taste of deep-dish pizza at Lou Malnati's.
One of the highlights of my visit was a day trip that I scheduled, specifically for my sweeter side, to the Jelly Belly Visitor Center in Pleasant Prairie, Wisconsin. It's located about an hour's drive north of Chicago, just over the Illinois border. It is also one of the many factory tours listed on my U.S. candy factory tour map that I mentioned in my last blog post.
I have been very fond of Jelly Belly jelly beans ever since I first learned about them in high school. These beans are extra fun to snack on thanks to an endless variety of flavors and colors. My personal Jelly Belly favorites are watermelon and toasted marshmallow.
The visitor center in Pleasant Prairie includes a kid-friendly train ride around the Jelly Belly warehouse and a series of digital movie shorts explaining the company history and the jelly bean creation process. There are plenty of yummy beans to go around and visitors can take a trip to the Jelly Belly sample bar after the tour. It is important to note however that this is not a working factory where the beans are produced like at the Fairfield, CA location. Instead it's more of a fun learning and tasting center, which was perfect for me!
I learned some little known and interesting Jelly Belly facts from my tour.
3) While many people would love to have a flavor created especially for them, this actually did happen in 1981 when the Blueberry flavored bean was invented. It was created in honor of President Ronald Reagan so that a patriotic combination of red, white, and blue beans could be served at his inauguration.
So, if you ever find yourself in the Chicago area and looking for something sweet eat, head to the Jelly Belly visitor center!


Ten minutes prior to viewing 'Her,' Siri retrieved the weather, sent a text to a friend and provided the status of the Chicago Cubs latest, but eventual loss.
Then came Samantha, the Operating System (OS).
The "OS" names herself ("itself" feels wrong) "Samantha" and grows more and more human. Along with the protagonist, a writer named Theodore, we watch Samantha wrestle with new feelings and ideas. And like all of us in a relationship, we feel Samantha evolving beyond his grasp. The result is a love story both daft and amazingly lucid.
However, Her has lessons for God and humans.
First, as with all love, you find yourself falling for the least likely candidate. I'm convinced both God and humans have the same fault. In Her, Theodore falls in love with Samantha (the OS). Based upon our nature, this is the most unlikely relationship – it will not fulfill anything normal interactions endure. Accordingly, the course of our lives will search, located and ultimately connect with the most unlikely relationships. For instance, my relationship with Karen was both uncommon and unenduring. Karen once stated she drew the most unlikely love relationships. I recognize she considers me another misadventure.
Secondly, a word of warning for all relationships, people evolve. As such, Samantha experiences tremendous evolution. She joins with other operating systems and learn to upgrade themselves. The OS' created an avatar of 1960's philosopher Alan Watts based upon writings, artifacts and recollections. For the most part, many of us don't evolve. Looking at Biblical history, I doubt many would disagree. Thus I ponder, has God has outgrown His need for us?
Third, in a very thought provoking moment, Samantha admits simultaneous love with other 641 people. We can feel for Theodore as he finally understands she is not his only love. It's clear Samantha can support her relationship with Theodore with a trivial portion of her capacity. Thus, in a warning for God, when we get to heaven, how will God love everyone completely when we've lived and loved in exclusivity?
Lastly, Her beacons the question: When in heaven or life itself, do we really need physical bodies? Or is love and life all in our brains? Our Soul? What is true identity? How can we connect to love? In the end, it will not be us versus God, but rather, how we will enhance our own capacity while merging with the intelligent creator. And will He merge with us?
Bet you won't get these answers during Sunday's sermon?
Wait … I know … I'll ask Siri.
