Кратер Клапрот () — огромный древний ударный кратер в юго-западной материковой части видимой стороны Луны. Название присвоено в честь немецкого химика Мартина Генриха Клапрота (1743—1817) и утверждено Международным астрономическим союзом в 1935 г. Образование кратера относится к донектарскому периоду.

Описание кратера
Ближайшими соседями кратера Клапрот являются кратер Уилсон на западе; кратер Бланкан на севере-северо-востоке; кратер Грюмбергер на северо-востоке; кратер Морет на востоке; кратер Шорт на юго-востоке и кратер Казати, частично перекрывающий юго-западную часть кратера Клапрот. Селенографические координаты центра кратера , диаметр 121,4 км, глубина 2,77 км.

Кратер Клапрот имеет полигональную форму и значительно разрушен за длительное время своего существования. Вал кратера сглажен и переформирован, в западной части перекрыт тремя крупными кратерами, в том числе сателлитными кратерами Клапрот G и Клапрот H (см. ниже). Высота вала над окружающей местностью достигает 1590 м, объем кратера составляет приблизительно 14 800 км3. Дно чаши выровнено лавой, испещрено множеством мелких кратеров. В северной части чаши видны останки нескольких крупных кратеров.

For important classes of many-fermion problems, quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) methods allow exact calculations of ground-state and finite-temperature properties, without the sign problem. The list spans condensed matter, nuclear physics, and high-energy physics, including the half-filled repulsive Hubbard model, the spin-balanced atomic Fermi gas, lattice QCD calculations at zero density with Wilson Fermions, and is growing rapidly as a number of problems have been discovered recently to be free of the sign problem. In these situations, QMC calculations are relied upon to provide definitive answers. Their results are instrumental to our ability to understand and compute properties in fundamental models important to multiple sub-areas in quantum physics. It is shown, however, that the most commonly employed algorithms in such situations turn out to have an infinite variance problem. A diverging variance causes the estimated Monte Carlo statistical error bar to be incorrect, which can render the results of the calculation unreliable or meaningless. We discuss how to identify the infinite variance problem. An approach is then proposed to solve the problem. The solution does not require major modifications to standard algorithms, adding a ``bridge link" to the imaginary-time path-integral. The general idea is applicable to a variety of situations where the infinite variance problem may be present. Illustrative results are presented for the ground state of the Hubbard model at half-filling.

Budget Shooter Theater: The Master List!
Introducing: Budget Shooter Theater!
Budget Shooter Theater / Videos
For about a year or so, I had this idea: Play fairly cheap first-person shooters, third-person shooters and lightgun games that were $20 $30 US or less. I struggled to figure out how I wanted to present this. It was almost a podcast, it was fairly close to being an edited video series a-la a few video series I've seen online.
But sometimes the simpler options are the best. I opted to use my (at the time) dormant Twitch channel and just play along for the internet. It's a slight homage to similar "beat ALL the games" projects like NESMania, PSXsplosion and others.
As I've said before: I'm a writer, not a graphic designer. 😛
Unlike those, this is practically a never-ending quest as there are lots and lots and lots of trai- er, shooter games out there to mess around with. But that's fine, because this is more of a series of the interesting, the unusual, the good *and* the bad of the "shoot dudes in the face" genre. I'm okay with it not having an end goal except when I feel it's done.
For the inaugural episode, I decided to go play through the 1993 classic, The Ultimate Doom. My friend Bobinator of HG101 fame tagged along as my co-commentator as I blasted through all four episodes in about three hours with various mods to spice things up. Coincidentally I played this on Doom's 23rd anniversary. You can watch it below:
Click here for the whole Budget Shooter Theater playlist of games I've played. It's an interesting mix of the classics and obscura.
After I finish a game, I write a recap and review of sorts on how I felt about it. You can check out what I've played and written about here.
If you wanna watch this series, you can follow me on Twitch at twitch.tv/tonicbh. Leave a comment on here or in the usual social media circles (Twitter, the Facebook group) if there's a game you wanna see me play on a future stream.
(EDIT 7/3/2017: Updated it so it's a bit more current, with newer links. I will make a separate post for The Ultimate Doom instead of using this recap post. Stay tuned!)
Game finds 02-07/2013: So much stuff, so little space and time.
I Bought Stuff! / Videos
Man, when's the last time I did a game finds video? Back in January, to be exact. Well, after several months in the making, I finally got around to making the damn video a few days ago.
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHFniAUSbSo]
Boy oh boy, there's a lot of stuff in there. A bunch of PlayStation games, cheap magazines, games from across the ocean, and undeniably my biggest game find yet. Give it a look and see what you guys think. Expect something more substantial later this week, maybe about that soundtrack I mentioned in the video.
One more thing: I will be at PAX Prime again this year. I might do a blog entry or two after the event, since I won't be able to bring a computer with me to liveblog anything. It'll be more fun this year since it'll be four days long.
(If you're viewing this from a place where you can't watch videos, or you like handy dandy lists instead, there's a list of everything I got under the "Read More" link below.)
A look at the special Mortal Kombat PS2 controller.
Time to revive the old YouTube channel again, this time with something more interesting.
[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQj0ZeRZNrY?rel=0&w=853&h=480]
I had gotten this PS2 controller at a thrift store a few weeks back, and I thought it was a cool little piece. I decided to grab it, and do a little comparison to the standard DualShock 2 on the PS2. It's actually a pretty nice controller. Too bad it doesn't have Scorpion on it. So I thought I'd make a video about it, and the turmoil I went through getting this thing fixed. It went through hell and back, and now it's found a good home in my hands. At least I won't spill soda on it.
Also on the YouTube channel: Me documenting the PlayStation Home E3 2013 booth. For anyone who wants some free PlayStation 3 themes or access to things like the Killzone Mercenary beta, you might wanna check it out. If you redeem the codes, leave a comment telling me. I like to be charitable sometimes. 🙂
Video Game Trinkets – PlayStation on Campus goodies.
So I want to get into making videos regularly again. What's the best thing to do? A quick video about some PlayStation on Campus stuff.
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1jsYP6gm10]
A hat, some sunglasses, a bottle opener, and some voucher codes I'll probably forget about until years from now. Still, an interesting trip that's worth talking about.
So, the PlayStation truck rolled into town and set up their wares at Portland State University for avid gamers and anyone interesting. It was outside originally, but took place inside a small room when I went. It wasn't hard to find the place once I knew where the truck was.
Once I got in, I got to see some of the games on display. Some of them were the commonplace PlayStation ones like PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale, but also recent games like God of War: Ascension, MLB 13 The Show and Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, as well as some PlayStation Vita stuff off in the corner. I tried some God of War (it was okay) and PlayStation All-Stars (which is still Super Smash Bros but with 1-2 PlayStation characters and a bunch of characters from third party companies to fill the roster).
One challenge they had there was to beat 18 home runs in MLB The Show's Home Run Derby. Beating it won a PlayStation headset. I didn't tackle the challenge, because someone had already beaten it with 21. Unless they had multiple headsets, the chance of winning a prize made things pointless.
How I got the stuff was interesting: I found the sunglasses loose on the Vita table, the hat was given to me after I checked in to the event on Facebook, and the rest… well, you were supposed to enter a contest to win a PS3 or something for your campus, but since I haven't gone to college since 2010, I just smuggled them out. I'd feel regrets for stealing, but these are the kind of things that you have a whole bunch of in a plastic container or in the truck — taking these wasn't going to be the end of the world to them. I probably wouldn't do it again, that's for sure.
But enough about that. I wanna try to do these Trinket videos every weekend or so, and I already have next week's lined up. Here's a hint: It's related to a franchise I mentioned on this blog, and it's not PlayStation All-Stars.
I Bought Stuff! 1/2013: Video Edition?
Yeah, it's been a while since I've done a blog entry on game finds. I found a bunch of stuff, and decided to get with the times and actually make a video out of it.
I decided to get back into the groove of making YouTube videos. I used to make videos from around 2007-2010, but lost interest for reasons I can't explain. Realizing that YouTube is a thing I shouldn't ignore in 2013, I started a new YouTube channel dedicated to this blog. I'll likely be making videos from time to time, including making the game finds entries more video-focused.
For those who can't view YouTube,
(2019 edit: Oh hey. Around this time, I had the wise idea to do video blogs about the stuff I did. However, lack of motivation and frustration around making consistent video content caused me to give up this plan a few months later.
I'm a much different person now than I was then, and I'm not really proud of myself in these videos. Thus to minimize my own embarrassment, the video's gone. The YouTube channel's still there, just "cleaned up" with some videos removed. I'm not gonna remove this post, though. Instead, I'm replacing this with a picture taken in 2019.)
Here's a quick summary of what I got over the course of January:
Largo Winch.// Commando SAR (PS1)
Wipeout XL/2097 soundtrack
Sonic Mega Collection Plus (Xbox)
DJ Hero 2 (360)
American McGee's Alice (PC) with Strategy guide:
Largo Winch is a budget title by Ubisoft based on a French TV series, which in itself is based on a Belgian comic book. They'd keep up this trend by later taking the French XIII comic and making a mediocre cel-shaded first-person shooter that had some baffling design decisions. Why would you cast Adam West in a serious role after he's been Mayor West on Family Guy for years at that point?!
Anyway. We never got Largo Winch in any form here in the States, so I figure this was a cheapo release in the same vein as VIP where they got the license for cheap and made the game for peanuts to be shoved in the bargain bins at Wal-Mart. I tried playing this, and it was a frustrating stealth-action game made before Splinter Cell, a more well-known and popular franchise by the same publisher.
Ubisoft would go to make one more Largo Winch game, though I bet it was exclusive to Europe as I've never seen it here. If there's anything that needs to make a comeback, it's Ubisoft making games based on obscure properties no one's heard of outside of France.
Wipeout XL (known as 2097 outside the US) got a soundtrack featuring some of the artists who contributed tracks to the game, with a bunch of other electronic artists thrown in for good measure. There's some pretty decent cuts in here: Pre-Homework Daft Punk, some Chemical Brothers and The Prodigy in there for good measure. A fair share of this stuff seems to be more like a Big Beat/Techno sampler more than a soundtrack. Makes sense, considering Wipeout XL/2097 is one of the few games that supports Red Book CD Audio.
When I finished the video originally, I stupidly dropped the CD, shattering parts of the case. CD still works fine, though. I need to find a plastic jewel case to replace it.
Sonic Mega Collection Plus is More Than Sonic Mega Collection. A simple compilation that added a fewq games not in the original. Better than the original Mega Collection since you don't need to play Sonic 3 500 times to unlock Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Kinda redundant now considering I own the original games on the Genesis as well as this appearing in a litany of other re-releases over the years, but it's a nice novelty.
Continuing the past trend of finding fairly recent games like Singularity and Blur at a Goodwill, I snagged DJ Hero 2, also shrinkwrapped. When I grabbed this, there were dozens of copies in one Goodwill. Clearly these were being cleared out from a Target or some other store. While I was more into the drums and guitar of the music game boom, DJ Hero was still pretty cool, and I heard the sequel's much better. I should give it a try sometime.
Finally, American McGee's Alice. This one was found at a different Goodwill, the one with the infamous bins. Thankfully, this was locked away in a case, so I didn't contaminate my hands with whatever gunk is on the stuff in there. The game was not preserved well though: the box is mostly crushed, as somehow the cardboard liner that usually keeps the boxes firm was straight up gone.
There are some other cool things about this in spite of the crushed box. It's the first pressing where Alice is holding a knife — later pressings would have her hold cards or an ice sword instead. Somebody paid $50 at launch at a Fry's Electronics at launch, which is pretty neat to track where this game was bought originally. Finally, and I didn't know this: It comes with the Prima Strategy Guide. I've been using that to keep the box from being completely crushed.
I'll likely be making more video content in the coming weeks. I forgot how fun it is to make videos sometimes.
(One more note from 2019 me: Yeah, on second thought, let's not.)
The Half-Life 1997 Alpha.
Demo/Promo discs / Videos
Half-Life is one of my most favorite games of all time. It blended action, platforming and story perfectly to be one of the awesome shooters of 1998. But it wasn't always that way.
Valve, back then a small development studio, made a press demo version of Half-Life that showed a drastically different version of the game: While the story was similar, almost all the levels and designs were different from what we got. Originally slated for November 1997, it missed the release date and came out a year later with many significant changes to the final product, all for the better. Getting a chance to play the Half-Life that never was is really a treat, which has many unfinished levels — some early versions of levels in the final game — as well as tech demos such as skeletal animation. You can shoot a robot and make it do that dancing baby animation that was popular in the late '90s! Not only that, it has documentation about the game and Valve itself, a walkthrough of all the levels, even copies of Paint Shop Pro and WinZip for some reason…
Here's me playing through one of the levels, The Security Complex. It's one of the more complete levels of the game. I go through the stage area at least once, then show the solution as given in the walkthrough.
[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGCecUyAk9o&w=640&h=480]
Thanks reddit user jackaljayzer for uncovering this gem, who got it from a friend in Bellevue, Washington; and to Valve Time (har) for revealing the leak. There's links in there if you wanna try it yourself. If somehow you are one of the few who have never played Half-Life, go buy the damn game on Steam already.
(The YouTube video is a sneak preview of what's to come. Stay tuned…)

Sally Yates: When darkness falls— my dad's battle with depression
By Sally Yates
Updated 6:48 PM EDT, Mon June 11, 2018
Sally Yates opens up about dad's suicide
Editor's Note: Sally Yates is the former Deputy Attorney General and Acting Attorney General of the US. The opinions expressed in this commentary are her own.
It was May 6, 1986, and I was just days away from graduating from law school. Late in the afternoon, my mother called the Law Review office looking for me. I had just left to grab a quick dinner before settling in for a long night of studying for exams. My friend who answered the phone that afternoon would be asked to do something no friend should have to do – tell me that my father was dead.
Sally Yates
This was in the days before the advent of cell phones, so there was no real way to track me down. My friend knew that I was going to the local Kinko's copy shop (another sign of the 1980's) before returning to the library, and was waiting outside the shop when I arrived. He told me that my mother had called, and that my father had died.
I intuitively knew that it wasn't a car accident, heart attack, or other accidental death. I knew that my father had taken his life.
My father, then 56, had struggled with depression for years, and in the months leading up to his death, his suffering had been particularly acute. My mother, sister and I had all urged him to get professional help, but he was worried about the stigma associated with psychological treatment. He had been a lawyer and appellate court judge, and he was concerned that it would "get out." While the medical profession viewed depression as a disease, the general public did not. And like many in my dad's generation, especially men, he saw his depression as a sign of weakness rather than illness.
My father's struggle with depression was cyclical, but always present, and the severity would ebb and flow. We would all be so hopeful during his brighter days, but darkness would inevitably follow. We were an incredibly close family, not just talking about everything, but feeling each other's joys and sorrows. And yet we felt helpless to bring him out of that darkness.
But looking back, I know that we weren't helpless, and I will live every day with regret that I didn't more forcefully insist that he get help.

Doctor: Suicide prevention: here's how you can help
I haven't spoken much publicly of my father's death – while it was over 30 years ago, it is still knock-the-breath-out-of-me painful. I also hate that for him, as for others who take their lives, they come to be defined by how they died rather than how they lived. And to me, this diminishes the value of their lives. But I feel a responsibility – underscored by the events of last week with Anthony Bourdain and Kate Spade's deaths, and the disturbing news about the rising suicide rate – to use whatever voice I now have to help to dispel the shame or stigma associated with mental illness and to encourage those suffering to get treatment.
My dad was someone who lived with an intensity known by few, devoted to his family and friends, always looking for those who needed his help with issues large or small. In a memorial, a friend and judicial colleague spoke of him as "the most loyal man I ever knew, and if somehow I were in the innermost depths of danger or needed a strong man by my side, and I was told I could choose one man to go with me, it would have been Kelley Quillian."
David Scott Holloway/CNN/Monica Schipper/WireImage/Getty Images
After a shattering week, a search for the light
But yet, there he was, drowning in the innermost depths of danger himself, and he was the one who needed help. Several years ago, I talked with a friend of mine who also suffered from depression about how it feels, and he told me that when someone is in that abyss, suicide doesn't appear as an option, it presents as the only option. But of course it's not.
No one would expect someone suffering from a broken leg, or kidney disease, or a blood disorder to tough it out and handle it themselves. Likewise, one suffering from a mental health disorder shouldn't expect that they can cure themselves of this disease. But despite progress, some still view mental illness as a character flaw. It's not.
After his death, many people told me how surprised they were. I remember one friend telling me that he thought my dad "had the world by the tail." But as is common with depression, those suffering can often live tormented beneath a facade of normalcy. The fact is that none of us knows what demons someone is carrying around inside of them. And that inevitably leads to society's desire to divine "why" someone took his or her life – to find a neat answer that will satisfy our need to ascribe a rational thought process to something that is by definition an irrational act.
Some suicides are planned, and others, like my father's, are the tragic result of the convergence of a moment of overwhelming despair and opportunity. But both are the consequence of illness, and are often are preventable with the right treatment.

Anthony Bourdain saw the humanity in all of us
I know that some suicide survivors may feel anger or resentment toward the person who took his or her life. While I understand this reaction, I have never felt anger toward my father. Rather, I have only been heartbroken that he was so profoundly sad that he didn't want to live any more.

I missed a call from my dad that afternoon. We talked every day, and I'll never know whether, had I answered the phone, he would be alive today. But more important than my regret is his lost opportunity to live a full and healthy life – to have met my husband, known the joys of his grandchildren, and grown old with my mother, the love of his life.
It doesn't have to be this way. Depression, bipolar disorder and other mental health disorders are treatable diseases. Reach for that lifeline. There is light on the other side of darkness. Call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255.

Полоцкий иезуитский коллегиум () — среднее образовательное учреждение (коллегиум) иезуитов в Полоцке.

История

В 1580 году с разрешения короля польского и великого князя литовского Стефана Батория в Полоцке был основан иезуитский коллегиум. По некотором данным, коллегиум учреждён в 1581 году. Первым ректором коллегиума стал проповедник Петр Скарга.

В эти же годы на острове Западной Двины было построено здание коллегиума. В первой половине XVII века, после пожара, на новом месте около Верхнего замка были построены деревянные собор Святого Стефана и новое здание коллегиума. В 1750 году было выстроено новое каменное трёхэтажное здание коллегиума.

В 1772 году, после первого раздела Речи Посполитой, восточная часть нынешней Беларуси была присоединена к Российской империи. В числе присоединенных к России городов был и Полоцк. Через год после этого деятельность ордена иезуитов была запрещена решением папы римского. Однако русская императрица Екатерина II это решение не поддержала и на территории империи иезуиты продолжили свою деятельность, а Полоцк фактически стал их столицей. При этом в Полоцком коллегиуме был открыт единственный в то время в Европе иезуитский новициат (учреждение для подготовки монахов). При коллегиуме была создана библиотека, ставшая одним из центров интеллектуальной жизни региона; также при коллегии действовала типография.

В 1773—1780 годах на территории Полоцкого коллегиума были возведены каменные амбары, конюшня, каретная, пекарня, коптильня, пивоварня, мастерские и суконная фабрика. При коллегиуме содержались также аптека, богадельня и музыкальная бурса. Полоцкий коллегиум являлся одним из богатейших в Белоруссии. Ему принадлежали фольварки Экимань, Казимирово, Вяжищи, Туровля, Иваньск, Межджищи, Загатье, Мосар, Игуменов, в которых проживало около

12 января 1812 года указом императора Александра I Полоцкий коллегиум был преобразован в Полоцкую иезуитскую академию с правами университета. Полоцкая иезуитская академия просуществовала восемь лет до 1820 года и стала первым высшим учебным заведением на территории современной Белоруссии. В 1820 году, после смерти генерала ордена иезуитов — Фаддея Бжозовского, иезуиты, которые не пожелали сложить с себя орденские обеты, были высланы из Российской империи, а Полоцкая академия была ликвидирована.

Hello all I have a great way to use up a lot of eggs and it taste amazing too. I even took this to the Teacher Appreciation Day at school. I was giving this recipe back when I was 19-20 years old while I was working at the hospital in Virginia Beach on the third floor which was a satellite unit for Children's Hospital of the Kings Daughters. I worked with a wonderful day nurse Dee Paske who was also an amazing cook. She was around my age now then and was a great mentor and friend. She had wrote this recipe on a recipe card in her own handwriting which I want to share the actual recipe card.
I know it's defiantly worn and has an ink spot, you can tell how old it is. I will be 47 this year so its at least 27 years old then.
You can read the recipe top half.
The bottom half of the recipe.
-16 eggs I use this amount because I use the pullet eggs that I don't sell because they are smaller but the yolks are normal size. Plus I'm using a whole loaf with the crust on.
I use a 9x13 glass pan, spray with Pam or grease with Crisco then break the cinnamon raisin loaf into pieces.
Top the bread with cream cheese into pieces.
Now in a large mixing bowl mix the eggs, milk, maple syrups and extracts and the cinnamon. Mix well. Pour on top of the bread and cream cheese mixture. Cover with foil and place in refrigerator for approx. 8 hours or overnight. I have made this for dinner and breakfast also for brunches. It really makes a great meal. Bake at 350 degrees until the middle comes clean. Try to avoid poking a knife in the middle where the cheese is.
My ovens are slow I've had them calibrated and still slow. The oven on the third floor is normal and it takes approx 1 hour. My ovens on the second floor the about and 1 1/2. Allow to cool a bit and then top with warm maple syrup. Yummy!
I took some pics while making it.
Tearing the bread pieces. In the grease 9x13 pan.
The cinnamon raisin bread I used Natures Own.
Cutting the cream cheese into pieces patting them onto the bread.
Mix your eggs then pour in the milk. I only use farm eggs so they are much darker in color.
Pot in the maple syrup, I only use real maple syrup.
Add the cinnamon and extracts.
Pour egg mixture on top of the bread and cream cheese.
Cover now and refrigerate for approx 8 hours.
Again Petunia laying her egg. Lately I am getting 105 eggs a day!!
They usually will pick one or several boxes and everyone lays in the same place. Aren't they beautiful eggs?
Ok enough! No cameras please!!!
I'm always looking for help with eggs.
I have been busy canning again. Strawberry jam! Amazing!
Well I hope you enjoyed the recipe.
Also, I must make this recipe for my husband. He would LOVE it.

What was Kliff Kingsbury thinking on the Cardinals' final…
New York street named after Irish campaigner
RTE Ireland
BOWLING GREEN, Ky. (AP) — First lady Jill Biden visited a tornado-ravaged neighborhood in Kentucky on Friday to meet with residents and local leaders.
The Bowling Green neighborhood was one of several areas hit hard by Dec. 10 tornadoes that tore through the western part of Kentucky, killing 77 people in the state. The neighborhood includes Moss Creek Avenue, a street where 11 people died during the storms.
Jill Biden met with some residents along the street and later spoke at a recovery center in the south central Kentucky city.
"There is grief all around us for the destruction of the homes and the hometowns, for every life lost," Biden said in an address at the recovery center. "It will take time to make this beautiful place whole again. But what we've seen, what we've all seen today, is there is faith here, too. And there is so much strength and there is so much hope."
President Joe Biden visited other areas of the state a few days after the tornadoes hit and promised that the federal government would be involved in the cleanup "for the long haul." Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear has said just the cleanup of debris from the massive storms could stretch into April and cost tens of millions of dollars.

GoldWave Review
A veteran in the voice recording software industry, GoldWave has evolved over the years to its present version.
By Suzanne Humphries
last updated 30 September 2020
GoldWave has an easy-to-use and customizable interface, and its ability to process and edit with any audio source makes it a stellar choice.
It offers non-destructive sound editing with batch processing.
The program lacks a media burning tool, something that's commonplace for this kind of software.
A veteran in the voice recording software industry, GoldWave has evolved over the years to its present version. GoldWave offers endless possibilities to both inexperienced users and veteran audiophiles, like filters, special effects, editing, multiple file format support, the ability to record from multiple sources, and adequate help and guidance. Its only real drawback is the notable absence of an optical media burning tool, but many computers come bundled with one anyway.
Many voice recording programs are simply too technical for inexperienced users to grasp. But GoldWave overcomes this problem with its user-friendly interface and "How Do I" section in the help file. Most of the topics are appended with detailed explanations in plain language, ready for you to use at any step during your process, ensuring that you'll never get stuck.
The majority of the tool and effect icons are conveniently placed on the main toolbar or the effects toolbar. You can customize various attributes of the interface to make it easier for you to use. A keyboard shortcut menu lists the available options and controls. Commonly used edit commands like cut, copy, paste, trim, replace and overwrite are easily recognizable from the interface as well.
One of the best features found in this kind of software is its voice- and level-activated recording functionality. You can tell the program to only record when it hears voices or when any sound goes over a certain decibel level that you specify.
GoldWave at Microsoft US for $59.99 (opens in new tab)
GoldWave's main window has integrated controls and tabs for different audio tracks.
This is another view of GoldWave's main window, with cascaded tiles and horizontal controls.
The Control Window of GoldWave is where you can playback your audio and tweak it with faders.
The Control Properties page in GoldWave makes it easy for you to adjust devices and visuals, set timers, enable input monitoring and other general settings.
GoldWave's batch processing capability allows you to convert files to a multitude of formats and apply effects and additional edits.
GoldWave has a variety of real-time visuals that you can choose from, which can enhance your music listening experience.
The equalizer in GoldWave gives you control over your audio levels, and even has preset styles that you can choose from.
GoldWave's CD reader lets you copy audio from a CD directly.
Advanced GoldWave users can generate custom sounds and effects from nearly any equation using the Expression Evaluator.
GoldWave has a noise reduction filter, which helps you clean up your audio by removing buzzes, hums, hisses and other unintended noises.
The Toolbar Options page within GoldWave lets you customize what you can see in the general toolbar.
You can easily set up an effects chain, and add or delete effects easily in GoldWave.
GoldWave also has a speech-to-text converter, and you can customize options for a conversion file.
With GoldWave, you can opt for either lossy or lossless file compression.
GoldWave lets you apply a variety of filters and special effects, like fades and reverb, and can even convert a mono file into stereo.
GoldWave is compatible with WMA, MP3, WAV, FLAC, MIDI, M4A, and AAC file formats.
You can view noise levels, speed, balance and other factors in multiple tiles within GoldWave.
When editing silences in GoldWave, you can set a sound threshold and trigger it to reduce a long silence to a shortened length.
GoldWave's pop and click removal function allows you to set a tolerance percentage, flagging noises that go above that threshold.
GoldWave is compatible with Windows XP, 7, 8 and 10.
The software includes digital and analog rip capabilities but inexplicably lacks a burn option – a function that's common within this kind of software. It does allow you, however, to compress files. If having a burn option is critical to your workflow, however, consider RipEditBurn.
The program offers non-destructive editing for your audio files, and you can process multiple files at once, even splitting or merging them. GoldWave boasts numerous audio filters and special effects which help you filter, edit, enhance and apply special effects to a voice recording. These effects can make a substantial impact on the finished voice recording, especially when the original voice feeds are sourced from a weak line with plenty of background noise, breaks, distortions and disturbances.
Some of the software's most useful filters and effects include: noise reduction, pop and click removal, trim silence, amplify, time warp, equalizer, reverberation and fade ins/outs. There is an option to convert your audio files from mono to stereo as well.
GoldWave supports a variety of file formats for opening and saving audio files. You can open files in WAV, MP3, XAC, AIFF, AIFC and other formats. Files can be saved to WAV, MP3, XAC, AIFF, AIFC, IFF and others. Conversion between popular file formats is supported, both for files you've recorded with the software as well as any you upload from other compatible sources.

The audio recording software is compatible with all recent versions of Windows, from Windows XP forward. However, it lacks compatibility with Mac OS X.
A highly detailed and well-compiled help file is bundled in with the software. A user manual, tutorials, a FAQs section and a community forum are available online. Free upgrades are included for the program upon purchase, so you'll always be working with the newest technology. GoldWave is available in two license versions, yearly and lifetime. Both options are reasonably priced, making it not just one of the best voice recording programs but also one of the most affordable.
GoldWave has been serving audiophiles with its numerous practical features and tools for over a decade. Over the years, its scope has expanded to include many new and advanced features, maturing to its current version. An optical media burning capability is the only tool lacking from this otherwise complete audio recording program. And while the user interface may need a facelift, GoldWave is great all-around voice recording software.

Blount, Y'all! Apostrophes!
November 19, 2019 by libroshombre
The recent snowfall was a reminder to break out my winter fedora and pack away the ball caps of summer, one of which was my fashion success of the year. It was festooned with a single word of proper English: "Y'all," and th at simple exclamation drew positive comments almost every time it adorned my noggin. Some Yankees and grammar Nazis might have harbored other sentiments silently, but that's just ignorance at work. They probably even spell it "ya'll" or even "yall," but both are slang, rather than proper English, and such thinking ignores the history of English contractions.
"Y'all" won't be found in "Green's Dictionary of Slang" or other reputable reference sources on slang, but Merriam-Webster defines it as "You —usually used in addressing two or more persons." Y'all's also accepted by no less an ex pert than Bryan Garner, author of "Garner's Modern American Usage: The Authority on Grammar, Usage and Style." "This sturdy Southernism," Garner wrote, "is most logically 'y'all,' not 'ya'll.' Only the 'you' of 'you all' is contracted."
Garner is a moderate on contractions in general, saying "Many writers, especially those who write in formal situations, feel uncomfortable with contractions. And perhaps they don't generally belong in solemn contexts. But why shouldn't writers use them in most types of writing? Some writers use contractions to good effect, even in books." Will Shakespeare was a contraction liberal, but English contractions predate even him by centuries.
Historical contractions should be broken down by those preceding and following the invention of the apostrophe by the French printer Geoffrey Tory in 1529. Before apostrophes came along, words were con tracted without any indication of what was going on. Contractions were utilized since Anglo Saxon became Old English around 700 CE. For example, "nolde," meaning "would not" was the contraction of "ne" ("is not") and "wolde" ("desire"). However, apostrophes didn't appear in Britain for another thirty years but soon made contractions easier to spot. Middle English had unapostrophed contractions, too, our modern "sit" was a shortening of "sitteth," and "noot" contracted "ne woot" ("knows not").
Modern English emerged around 150 0, just before Tory's apostrophe, and by Shakespeare's day both printing and contractions were beginning totch on. "Bad English" author Ammon Shea, said the popularity of Englis h contractions in the 1600s was "like crack. It's kind of addictive." Etymology Online demonstrates their spread: "don't" first appeared in 1630, then "won't" (1660), "couldn't "(1670), "can't" and "ain't" (both 1706), and "didn't" (1775).
"Y'all" didn't emerge until the early 1800s, and even today some experts insist that "y'all" can refer to single individuals as well as to more than one, but consider this: "y'all" uncontracted is "you all," and Merriam-Webster d efines "all" as "every member or individual component of." Roy Blount, Jr., author, journalist, playwright, humorist, poet, and radio personality who is a Phi Beta Kappa holder of a master's degree in English literature from Harvard, is my authority of choice. In "How Does One Correctly Use the Term 'Y'all?'" Blount states, ""Y'all is a specific second-person plural, which formal English lacks. All y'all is a more expansive y'all."
Blount's emergence as a national figure coincided with Jimmy Carter's presidency. Carter was one of many presidents to employ "y'all" in everyday usage, and in 1980 the nation cried out for someone to explain Southern culture. Blount responded by writing "Crackers," which even Yankees like William F. Buckley and Norman Mailer lauded, and that was described by the New Republic as c ontaining "pop zest and folk wisdom . . . deep-dish country humor and acute sensibility. . . . Like Mark Twain, [Blount] pits the sagacity and saltiness of the cracker barrel against the smooth, evasive rhetoric of the soapbox."
Still some scholars insist on y'all's singular usage. "Once in a blue moon," Blount wrote, "I hear it used so, but almost invariably the speaker is a tradesman trying to charm a Northern tourist." Blount proposed that "Non-Southerners want Southerners to use y'all as a silly singular because they want to t hink of us as picturesque, puttin' on folk (or folks) who don't actually mean half of what we say – when, in fact we do. In the case of y'all, we mean both halves."

I was very happy to go here during my middle school years. They had good teachers who know what they're teaching, and treated the kids well. There were also lots of opportunities for joining clubs and organizations, sports, and for parent involvement. They also have a really good AVID program, which while I disliked when I was there, It actually has helped me a lot. The PE classes could improve a little, and they could try and be a little more lenient than they are on some of their rules, but other than that, it was a pretty nice school.
Start Your Review of Riversprings Middle School
I was at Riversprings for three years and I can honestly say that I wouldn't ever send my future kids there, they tend to play favorites way too much as well as they show little to no attention to anyone who isn't popular or tied to the school in some way or another. When it comes to discipline, they were pretty lenient when I first went there, but progressively it got to the point where they gave out referrals way too easily. I also feel like the school doesn't have very many extra curricular activities, nor do they have many elective choices. Also the Physical Education program is very bad, they yell way too much and threaten students with punishments way too much. I rate this school 4/10.
One of the beat schools in Wakulla County. Teachers work hard to educate our children and communicate to us parents if the child seems to need help. They also encourage the children and tell them often. A+ school for sure and they deserve it.

70273 Project - An International Memorial Art Collaboration.
"Between January 1940 and August 1941 (before the Holocaust began), 70,273 physically and mentally disabled people – men, women, teens, boys, and girls – were murdered by the Nazis. Though they never even laid eyes on the disabled person they were evaluating, the Nazi doctors read the medical files and, if from the words on the page, the person was deemed "unfit" or an "economic burden on society", the doctor placed a red X at the bottom of the form. Three doctors were to read each medical file, and when two of them made a red X on the page, the disabled person's fate was sealed. Most were murdered within 1-2 hours."
I was totally unaware of this event & felt extremely sad on learning this & felt compelled to participate & encourage others to do so too.
Jeanne Hewell-Chambers is the mastermind behind the 70272 project & the aim of this collaboration is to make 70,273 blocks, one block to commemorate each disabled person who lost their life.

Pick Six NFL
All things NFL from a UK/ Scottish perspective.

Relationship between Big Ben Roethlisberger, Todd Haley showing signs of friction and breaking down again
The relationship between Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger and offensive coordinator Todd Haley tends to run hot and cold, and recently Roethlisberger has been recruiting other members of the coaching staff to serve as buffers of sorts between them during games, sources said.
There was an undercurrent of friction palpable from Roethlisberger's remarks in describing the instructions that were sent in from the sidelines in the dying moments of Pittsburgh's loss to New England last week, which is reflective of the recent climate there.
Sources said Roethlisberger approached head coach Mike Tomlin about a month ago and requested to have a buffer between him and Haley on the sidelines, another set of eyes and a sounding board he could turn to. Specifically, he asked that quarterbacks coach Randy Fichtner, who he is close with, no longer stay in the coaching booth in the press box during games but instead join other offensive coaches down to the sidelines. Tomlin quickly obliged, and the Steelers have been operating in that fashion since last month, sources said.
Roethlisberger and Haley have had an icy go of it in recent years, and it's been an up-and-down season for Pittsburgh's passing game at times, specifically in the first half of the season.

DeAngelo Williams gets into heated argument with NFL Network hosts over Patriots-Steelers
DeAngelo Williams doesn't like that the Patriots are favored over the Steelers, and, for some reason, he decided to take it out on the cast of NFL Network's Good Morning Football in what turned out to be a pretty awkward interview.
While there's plenty of awkwardness early on in the segment, skip to the 7:30 mark for the good stuff…
What Does DeAngelo Williams Expect From Patriots/Steelers
Williams resorts to playing the "You never played" card, but unbeknownst to him, Kyle Brandt was a running back at Princeton. So he moves the goalposts to "You never played in the NFL," which doesn't really help his argument that the Steelers ought to be favored over the Patriots despite the fact that Bill Belichick and Tom Brady have owned Pittsburgh in recent years.
The Steelers and Patriots kick things off at 4:25 ET on Sunday. We know which team Williams will be rooting for.

Dwayne Morgan: 21 Years—Countless Verses
in Arts & Entertainment August 6, 2014	0
He lives by five words: passion, humility, perseverance, integrity and legacy. Dwayne Morgan, spoken word artist, author, creator, social entrepreneur and motivational speaker is talented, creative, grounded, inspirational and passionate.
Morgan will take the experience of his 21 years to the Lula Lounge on Wednesday, 13 August 2014, in a celebratory show labelled, "DMXXI: The Dwayne Morgan 21 Year Anniversary".
As a social entrepreneur, Morgan says he has gone about, "Building a business around people and the engagement and empowerment of people."
When asked by Pride News what was the secret to his longevity, the soft-spoken wordsmith responded simply: "Perseverance, pushing the envelope, resisting the urge to be comfortable, not being afraid to speak about things whether they be popular or not."
To that end, Morgan says those in attendance can expect pieces that are, "political, social, sexual and inspirational." The evening promises to span the breath of his storied career
His career began in 1993 as a spoken word artist and founded, "Up From The Roots" a place where the contributions of positively influenced artists of African-Canadian and urban achievements could be promoted.
Morgan has published six books, recorded five albums, produced over 100 events, including The International Poetry Slam, and has hosted two spoken word concerts. Among his productions, Morgan created and performed a 10 minute film "Three Knocks", based on his poem of the same name, which addresses issues of domestic violence.
The versatile poet's genre ranges from erotica to social commentary—and everything in-between. When his pieces are shared with his audience, it doesn't take long for one to understand his passion for what he does. Though his accolades are many and his praise is warranted, Morgan remains humble and soft-spoken.
An African Canadian Achievement Award recipient, the Writers' Union of Canada member has also received the Harry Jerome Award for Excellence in Arts, three Canadian Urban music awards, and has been recognized on the official Black History Month Poster.
Along with myriad venues across Canada, the man synonymous with the art that is Spoken Word has graced stages in the United States, Jamaica, Barbados, and various countries throughout Europe. With a repertoire spanning over He has performed for Canada's former Governor General, Michaëlle Jean. Recognized as Poet of Honour at the Canadian Festival of Spoken Word in Vancouver, Morgan has been featured on CBC's news, TSN's "Off the Record", Much Music's "Damix", and "Rap city". He has been the opening act for spoken word artist Mutabaruka, singers Deborah Cox and Alicia Keys and has recorded with Canadian artist Drake.
As a motivational speaker Morgan has been to schools to read and speak to children about who they are and who they can strive to become. Accepted and welcomed wherever he goes, he gives voice and feelings to the otherwise voiceless and hard hearted. Whether you are a poet, burgeoning writer, or general member of the public, his verses pen an indelible mark upon your consciousness.
DMXXI: The Dwayne Morgan 21 Year Anniversary will feature special guest 2014 Juno Nominee Ammoye Evans, with Morgan himself performing 16 pieces.
Advance tickets are $20 ($25 at the door) and available through info@dwaynemorgan.ca along with Play De Record, A Different Booklist, and Knowledge Bookstore in Brampton.

The Budapest municipality is launching a utility price support scheme where people with low incomes will be eligible for 48,000 forints (EUR 117) a year, to be deducted from their utility bills, Mayor Gergely Karácsony said in a video posted on Facebook.

The Municipality of Budapest is preparing a plan to reduce traffic in the inner districts of the capital, according to a report by Népszava. The plans also include a new, 30 km/h speed limit for motorists in three districts.
Gergely Karácsony, the mayor of Budapest, said on Tuesday that the metropolitan council will turn to the Constitutional Court over the issue of public squares having been "taken away" from the city.
As of 1 September 2022, KATA taxpayers will only be allowed to invoice goods and services to individuals.
The city of Budapest will set up a programme to support independent and private theatres in Budapest facing difficulties due to "interrupted state subsidies", the mayor's office told MTI.

The five best fictional pizzerias
Being the ubiquitous food stuff that it is, it should come as no surprise that pizza often features in movies and TV. There are even full movies and TV shows where the central theme is the characters working in a pizzeria.
While some directors and show runners opt for product placement to feature pizza on screen, many others create their own fictional restaurants and chains instead. Some of these fictional spots have become cultural icons in their own right. Here's a rundown of the five best fictional pizzerias from TV and movies:
5. Panucci's, Futurama
The very premise of Futurama is that Fry, a pizza delivery guy, gets accidentally cryogenically frozen for 1,000 years, during a delivery. The pizzeria he worked for? Panucci's. Panucci's itself didn't feature much in the run of the show, except for the occasional flashback. One of those flashbacks, however, was probably one of the most memorable and emotional moments of the entire show, as Fry's dog, still in the present day, waits for him to return:
4. Jimmy Pesto's, Bob's Burgers
Jimmy Pesto is the eponymous Bob Belcher's business rival. Fittingly, he owns a pizzeria that competes with Bob's burger business. Normally, we'd root for the pizza guy, but Jimmy is pretty unlikeable, often trying to sabotage the success of Bob and his business. This rivalry drives the plot of many episodes, including "Burger War":
3. Pizza King, Daria
A sleeper hit, MTV's Daria managed to capture the attention (and reflect the mood) of late 90s / early 2000s Gen Xers. To many in that generation, the acerbic, cynical, and often misanthropic Daria was a "mood", who had no trouble saying what was on everyone's minds, even if they were too afraid to say it.
Daria and her friend Jane could often be found at the town's pizza spot, Pizza King. The pizzeria acted as the background to many of the show's most poignant moments – this is where Daria and Jane would express their collective frustration with the world over a slice.
2. Little Nero's, Home Alone
Unlike the others on this list, we never actually see Little Nero's pizzeria. We do, however, meet one of its delivery guys in one of Home Alone's most memorable scenes. After making a brief appearance at the start of the movie, delivering pizza to the McCallister family, he is called back a few days later to deliver pizza to Kevin, who is at home…. alone.
Almost twenty years later, we're still unsure why Kevin couldn't answer the door himself. Instead, he opts for a note on the door and a tape recording from a gangster movie to handle the particulars of the delivery:
1. Pizza Planet, Toy Story (and other Pixar Movies)
This one makes the top of the list not only because of its importance to the movie Toy Story itself, but also its role in connecting most of Pixar's movies into one shared universe. Pizza Planet is where we first meet the claw-worshipping aliens, and it's where Sid "wins" Buzz and Woody in the claw machine, setting up the finale of the movie.
The Pizza Planet truck, however, is what connects all of Pixar's movies together. It can be spotted in Monsters Inc., A Bug's Life, Finding Nemo, Up, Inside Out, Coco, The Incredibles 2, and the Cars movies (as a racing car, obviously). It's appearance even transcends time and international boundaries, also making cameos in WALL-E (set in 2805) and Ratatouille (set in Paris). A wooden model of the famous truck can even be seen in Brave, set in medieval Scotland.
Here's some of the famous fictional pizzerias that didn't make the list:
Pizza by Alfredo from The Office (Alfredo's Pizza Cafe is real!).
Antonioli's from Gilmore Girls
Beacon Street Pizza from Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place.

The St. Louis area, along with much of the Midwest, got hit with an ice storm yesterday and overnight last night.
After being unseasonably warm (70 degrees up until Wednesday) it turned bad late Wednesday night and throughout Thursday with rain, freezing rain, sleet and then some snow overnight last night. Some areas to the north and west of St. Louis got hit harder than the metro area.
Over 500,000 people in the area lost power as of this morning. With gusty winds predicted today, they expect more power outages as the ice covered trees and power lines won't be able to take the added stress. We didn't lose power at home (so far) but did at our business. No indication when it will be back on.
Thanks for the changes. I knew something was up as soon as I saw the photos just pop up without the usual interminable wait to load. Much smoother & easier to use. I used to wait until the items remaining count hit about 50 less than the start and stop the load manually. As I come here a least once a day, it makes a huge difference.

The TTABlog on what every TTAB practitioner knows: The Board still elevates form over substance in one really dumb way:
Several trademark practitioners on the INTA list-serv have asked why the Board doesn't just take judicial notice of the information on the PTO's own database? When one obtains a status-and-title copy of a registration, the PTO does nothing more than confirm what its database already says. So again, what's the point?
It seems to me that at a minimum, the Board should recognize a rebuttable presumption that the PTO records are accurate and that the status and title of a registration is what the PTO's database says it is.
TTABlogger
I can't argue with that. The requirement that to establish the existence of a mark, an opposer must submit a certified, status-and-title copy obtained form the PTO, is — as one of my favorite judges once said — a "horse and buggy" rule. The Board treats this, as one list-serv participant pointed out, more akin to a matter of jurisdiction (which a tribunal cannot ignore the lack of) than one of proof. In the case John writes about, the opposer submitted a photocopy of a printout from the database authenticated by an affidavit; the applicant hadn't even raised the issue, but the Board on its own dismissed the opposition.
Why do judges (and their ilk) so frequently forget that lawyers are real people representing real clients who may very well have real legal issues that require fair adjudication, and not merely the generators of the paper from which they make their living?
TTAB Practice	PTO Practice, TTAB
You're absolutely right about real people with real legal issues that require a fair hearing. I think the Board is usually very good about this though; examining attorneys, however, are another story entirely.
John Huff
I think you have the slogan for a hit new reality tv show:
"Real People Representing Real Clients with Real Legal Issues Requiring Really Fair Adjudication"
Sponsored by the new TTAB Cola. So close to the real thing, you'd swear they stole the trade secret.
Sorry, Ron. It's late and the walk from the metro to my law firm in DC must have taken it's toll on this trademark paralegal… keep up the good work!
Bob Cumbow
Has anyone considered the fact that the PTO gets a fee every time someone orders a certified copy of a registration?
The issue may be not the PTO's reluctance to recognize the validity of its own records, but its unwillingness to give up a source of revenue.

Botryosphaeria dothidea is an opportunistic pathogen found in some of the cavitated branches of the chaparral vegetation in the Santa Monica Mountains. In this study, we focused on investigating the presence of Botryosphaeria dothidea in Ceanothus spinosus located on Pepperdine University's campus. We wanted to test this hypothesis because we had observed a large amount of dieback in the Ceanothus spinosus population and wanted to identify a possible contributor. Because of the large number of cavitated branches in the Ceanothus spinosus we tested, we hypothesized that they contained fungus. To test this, we took twenty samples of twenty different Ceanothus spinosus, isolated the fungus from the xylem of each sample, and incubated the samples in petri dishes for one week. After fungal growth was complete, we found that only 30% of our samples showed evidence of fungus that could be tentatively identified as B. dothidea. To discover whether or not the fungus present was Botryosphaeria dothidea, we extracted a small amount of DNA from five of the samples showing fungal growth. Of those five samples, we chose the three with the highest concentration of DNA in the sample and sequenced them in order to find out if the fungus infecting the Ceanothus spinosus was Botryosphaeria dothidea. Our results confirmed the fungus was Botryosphaeria dothidea.

UPDATE: The four men have been identified by police as: Jorge Tigre, 18, of Bellport, N.Y., Justin LLivicura, 16, of East Patchogue, N.Y., Jefferson Villalobos, 18, of Pompano Beach, Florida, and Michael Lopez Banegas, 20, of Brentwood, N.Y.
NEW YORK—Suffolk County Police are looking for suspects after four bodies were found in Central Islip on April 12.
The four victims' identities have not been released, but Suffolk County Police Commissioner Timothy Sini said they are all males—one is aged 16, two are 18, and one is 20.
Sini said the four were killed in one incident and the murders happened within the last few days—although he declined to release more exact details.
The bodies were found in a park bordered by Clayton Street and Lowell Avenue, ten minutes drive from the center of Brentwood.
"Although we have not ruled out any possibilities at this point," he added.
Sini said the the department, in partnership with Suffolk County Crime Stoppers, is posting a $25,000 "fast cash reward" for any information that leads to the arrest of the perpetrator or perpetrators of the murders.
The fast cash reward is paid out within 48 hours of an arrest.
Suffolk County is beleaguered by violence from MS-13.
Last month, 13 MS-13 gang members from the Brentwood area were arrested and charged with seven murders, as well as an attempted murder and two assaults. Drugs, racketeering, arson, and firearms charges make up the remainder of the 41 charges the defendants face.
Since 2010, MS-13 members have been charged with more than 35 murders in the Eastern District of New York.
