BEFORE attempting to give an account of the work done during the years 1916-1918, I should like to make it clear that before 1916 the whole field of Psychical Research was to me an unexplored territory.
The great war which swept men from our midst in such rapid succession, touched our family circle at this time.
A young relative, Lieut. Frank Thompson, was killed suddenly, after being at the Front for a few weeks only.
After his death I was strongly impressed with the idea that he wished me to carry out something which, owing to his sudden departure for the Front and subsequent death, he had been obliged to leave unfinished. Unless I were supplied with a certain name and address known to himself alone, I knew that I could do nothing in the matter.
After consultation with a friend, I decided to try the experiment of automatic writing, in case Frank were able by this method to give me the necessary information.
I tried for ten minutes together, at a given time, during nine, successive days, without result, and decided that the tenth day should close the experiment. From the first I was very sceptical as to the possibility of obtaining any success, and should have given up the attempt sooner, but my desire to supply a channel of communication for Frank, if such a thing were possible, made me inclined to persevere.
I was frankly amazed when on the tenth day (July 24th, 1916) an electric current seemed to rush through my arm and hand, with such force that the pencil which I held was thrown across the room.
After this force had moderated sufficiently to make writing possible, the full name of Frank Thompson appeared, and with it that of his elder brother, Christopher Thompson, who had been reported "missing" a few months earlier, and unofficially reported killed in a letter received on July 17th, 1916. Shortly afterwards, the missing name and address were given. I wrote at once, asking if the name of Lieut. Frank Thompson were known to these people, and received a prompt reply in the affirmative; the letter stated that their son, then serving abroad, had been from time to time in touch with Lieut. Frank Thompson.
As Christopher's name had appeared in the writing, and as he had been only unofficially reported killed, it seemed natural that I should ask Frank for more definite news of his brother.
I think it well to mention here that on July 1st, 1916, before any automatic writing had been attempted, I had the following experience in connection with Christopher.
I woke in the morning before it was fully light. My mind reverted at once to a letter. received the day before, mentioning particularly the suspense felt by Mrs. Thompson concerning Christopher; he had been reported missing," as already mentioned, in April, 1916, and in spite of continuous enquiry, no news had been, obtained. As I was thinking about this, Christopher himself appeared at the foot of the bed; 'he was in uniform, but wore no cap; his brow was puckered, and he looked distressed, and seemed to be trying to rivet my attention upon himself. He drew a newspaper from his pocket, held it before him, and looked at it. It dawned upon me that he was scanning the "missing" column, where his own name was placed. Glancing up from the paper, he looked straight at me, and repeated three times the following words: "I was killed...it could not have been otherwise, if you had known the circumstances." It was said solemnly and deliberately. Having said this, he walked round to the right side of my bed, close enough for me to notice the smell of his breath, and this awakened me to the reality of his presence. (There was a special characteristic fragrance about Christopher's person and breath, which was well known to me.) He vanished as suddenly as he had come, and I remained for some time pondering upon this experience.
"I was sitting in here alone, writing to X—, when it seemed that Chris impressed his thoughts instead of mine. The thought seemed to be...It's like an impressionist picture...how stupid you are...you can't find the right words, or really understand...you don't want to look at the details...this is my message (Christopher's), not yours.'"
The letter continues: "And that was all I could get. I seemed to have, or feel, Chris' impatient worrying over the inadequacy of the words. You know how he used to say 'Oh, how stupid you are.'"
A second letter from Captain Marryat, dated August 4th, 1916, referred again to this experience. He wrote: "I had no feeling of Christopher being there, only of Christopher's thinking, and his impatience seemed to be that I couldn't find the right words, rather than at the idea; I don't think I missed that."
Captain Marryat had no knowledge at all of my vision of Christopher.
During the autumn of 1916, I received many written messages from Christopher; some were of an evidential nature mentioning names of people be had met "over there," and these were carefully verified. Some dealt with the new conditions under which he was living; one day he wrote: "Dying is really rather fun, you know, as we are so much happier here, and much freer to do lots and lots of things. You have no idea."
When this message was shown to Captain Marryat, he remarked: "That strikes me as like Chris."

In reality, Meyer Lansky was an Eastern European Jew who came to America from Belarus as a boy in 1911 and eventually left an indelible mark on U.S. history and pop culture. After allegedly getting involved with organized crime during Prohibition, he went on to advise and benefit from the organization of the modern-day Mafia, the creation of Las Vegas, and an international gambling ring that played a role in inspiring the Cuban revolution. This fictional adventure opens with an aging Lansky discovering that an airplane full of cocaine has crashed off the Florida Keys, and enlisting David, a half-Jewish, half-Cuban orderly at the retirement home where he lives, to join him in tracking the plane down. As Lansky and David search for the treasure and are in turn sought by a variety of vicious criminals, Lansky tutors David on Jewish culture, American history, how to dispose of a dead body, and more.
VERDICT The script from Lang (Plunder) is fast paced and witty, while the illustrations from Mutti (Port of Earth. Vol. 3) capture southern Florida's pastel noir vibe in a thrilling caper clearly inspired by the novels of Elmore Leonard and Carl Hiaasen.

Wonder Woman 1984: How Did Chris Pine's Steve Trevor Come Back?
December 25, 2020 Gaming, News, PC Gaming
One of the biggest mysteries surrounding Wonder Woman 1984 has been the return of Chris Pine's Steve Trevor, a character who heroically sacrificed his life back in the first Wonder Woman film, set during World War I. In the trailers, however, we've been able to clearly see that Steve is back and seemingly completely fine here in the '80s, with Diana showing him around and cracking all sorts of jokes about everything that's changed for him.
In our we singled out the much-needed feel good message of the film–which of course, includes Steve's arc in the movie. "Wonder Woman 1984 features some cheesy-looking CGI effects and some even cheesier messages. But it's also an improvement on the original in some key ways–where the first movie concluded with Wonder Woman literally punching the anthropomorphized concept of War in the face, WW84's climactic showdown is much more nuanced. The message–that every individual person on the planet has a shared responsibility for the common good–gets slightly muddled in the end, but it's also the exact one we need right now. And Wonder Woman 1984 is the exact film you'll want to sit down and watch with family, friends, and loved ones this holiday–even if you're doing so over Zoom."
Now, comic book stories are no stranger to resurrection plots and death defying schemes, so Steve's return isn't completely out of left field given the source material–but the question remained: How, exactly, did he do it? And, more importantly, why did it happen?
The good news is we now have those answers. Wonder Woman 1984 has hit select theaters and HBO Max. So let's break down exactly what happened to return Steve Trevor from beyond the grave–major WW84 spoilers ahead, obviously.
As it turns out, Steve's resurrection came from the movie's big McGuffin–the Dream Stone–which, like the name suggests, grants people's wishes if they touch it, for a price. The Dream Stone causes all sorts of chaos once it's absorbed by Max Lord, but before that happens, Diana gets her chance with it and–somewhat accidentally–wishes for Steve back.
This actually happens, of course–but Steve doesn't literally materialize from beyond the grave. He possesses the body of a living man, meaning that when he finds Diana, she doesn't actually recognize him at first. This problem is quickly solved when he proves it's him and she (and we, the viewers) begin to see him for who he actually is. But this is just a trick of the eye, or the camera as it were, because everyone else surrounding Diana still sees this random stranger.
Resurrected Steve even has access to the stranger's apartment–he "woke up" there, despite knowing he was "somewhere else" for a while before Diana's wish, which could potentially allude to one of DC's many versions of heaven or an afterlife existing in the DCEU. The implications here are a little dark–the man Steve's spirit is inhabiting clearly had a whole life all his own that Steve basically hijacked, but that's not the most pressing issue at hand. Diana's wish cost her her Amazonian abilities, meaning she spends every day with Steve progressively getting weaker and more human, which is a real problem considering the threat that people like Max Lord begin to pose.
Ultimately, Steve's resurrection proves to be too selfish for either of them and he winds up begging Diana to rescind her wish, undoing his miraculous revival and returning her powers–it's the same sort of tragic final moments we had back in the first movie all over again, with the two of them having just enough time to really say goodbye before coming to the mutual understanding that this just isn't going to work out for anyone.
But at least the man Steve took over gets to go back to his own life–it doesn't make the situation any less sad, but at least it is a little bit of a silver lining.
Wonder Woman 1984 is currently streaming on HBO Max.

TSMC and Samsung to face major issues in the development of 3nm

Find the Latest SoC Solutions

www.gizchina.com, Jan. 02, 2021 –
According to recent reports, TSMC FinFET and Samsung GAA have encountered different but critical bottlenecks in the development of 3nm process technology. TSMC and Samsung will therefore have to postpone the development progress of the 3nm process technology. According to TSMC's plan, 3nm will complete certification and trial production this year. However, it will be put into mass production in 2022.
As of now, there are reports that Apple already has a good chunk of TSMC's 3nm process contracts. This means that Apple will be among the first batch of customers for TSMC 3nm process. If there is an extension of the 3nm arrival time, then the 5nm chips will spend more time in the market. At the same time, considering that Intel's most advanced process is currently 10nm, this also provides an opportunity for Intel's process to catch up. However, there is still enough time to start production in 2022.

Though nanoscience and nanotechnology involves matter the size of tiny atoms and molecules, the requirements for building an advanced nanotechnology research facility are extremely large. In 2008, when Stanford University began construction on their Science and Engineering Quad (SEQ2), it looked to General Contractor Hathaway Dinwiddie to construct a state-of-the-art Nano Center. In turn, Hathaway Dinwiddie sought out the electrical expertise of Cupertino Electric to build the 140,000-square-foot Nano Center and Huang Engineering Centers, where advanced research in a variety of fields would be conducted.
The Stanford University Nano Center and Huang Engineering Center buildings, which comprise the Engineering Quad along with the Y2E2 Environment and Energy Building, were both designed and built by us. The Nano and Huang Engineering Centers are connected by a sub-basement tunnel and each contain shared and individual, user-specific research spaces. The lab spaces are varied and range from clean rooms and precise instrumentation areas to shop and teaching spaces.


If you're not familiar with Chinatown, you can just wander around and see what you can see. Or scroll down this page for popular spots to visit and tours to take, some with special discounts on popular tours.
San Francisco's Chinatown, as a residence, has its own social identity, and SF locals from other neighborhoods head over for dim sum, Chinese herbs, and to shop at the Asian markets.
But most people know Chinatown as the city's biggest tourist attractions. SF Chinatown is the oldest Chinatown in North America and the largest Chinese community outside Asia.
To get your bearings, you should know the two main Chinatown streets are Stockton Street and Grant Avenue and Stockton St. which run north and south between Broadway and California Streets.
And between the two main streets you can explore interesting alleys and side streets. On Washington and Jackson Streets, you'll find old-world herbalists and medicinal herb shops.
You'll find the fun touristy shops and restaurants on Grant Ave, the location of many Hollywood scenes set in Chinatown. You'll see iconic dragon lamp posts and calligraphy street signs, Chinese-American restaurants, and historic sights like the Sing Chong Building, and Old St. Mary's, California's first cathedral built in 1854.
For the authentic Chinatown experience, head over to Stockton Street. There you'll find touches of Hong Kong, like roasted birds hanging in the windows, residents haggling in Chinese for fresh fish and produce.
Keep in mind that in this part of the neighborhood, the restaurants have no english on the menus.
(Grant & Bush) Also known as Gateway Arch, guarding the south entrance to Chinatown is North America's one and only authentic Chinatown Gate, made with historic building materials from The Republic of China.
(56 Ross Alley/Jackson St) Some 20,000 fortune cookies a month are made here by hand. You can taste a free sample fresh from the oven and buy a snack bag to take with you.
(660 California/Grant) The first Asian church in North America, Old St. Mary's was built in 1854 and rebuilt in 1909 after the earthquake.
(125 Waverly Place/Washington) The oldest Taoist Buddhist temple in the United States, founded 1852 to honor the Goddess of Heaven and Sea, Tien Hau.
If you're looking at guided tours, start your search with the following great deals and discounts from trusted sources.
To really experience San Francisco's Chinatown, it helps to see it with someone who really knows the area. The right tour guide can share interesting stories and point out things only locals know, like where to eat and shop — and where not to.
If you're looking for a relaxed and interesting SF Chinatown tour focused on delicious Chinese food, you can't go wrong with one of the popular Chinatown food tours.
You'll find out where to buy the freshest gourmet tea, sample the most authentic Dim Sum, and order the best Cantonese, Sichuanese and Hunanese food. Some tour guides will also show you where and how they make fortune cookies, and take you to visit iconic Buddhist Temples.
Want to know something about the area's storied history? Humor? Crime? There are tours for those, too.

If you're going to Chinatown, you have to stop for a meal, it's an absolute requirement. Here are a few affordable eateries recommended by locals.
These are not the typical tourist places, so if you don't speak Chinese, just point to what you want. All casual, and some a just for take out.
Parking is rarely easy in San Francisco, and SF Chinatown is no exception. After taking a quick look around for street parking, we usually head for the big city garage under Portsmouth Square (you'll find the main entrance on Kearny Street just north of Clay Street).
Depending on where you're headed, you can also try the big parking lot under St Mary's Park (on California Street, about a half block west of Grant Ave). Plan ahead for a lot of one-way streets.
Take BART to Downtown San Francisco (exit Powell Street Station), then go above ground and transfer to 30 Stockton, 45 Union-Stockton.
You can also take a cable car to Chinatown.
From Fisherman's Wharf you can take either the Powell-Hyde line (PH) near Ghiradelli Square, or the Powell-Mason line (PM) at Bay and Taylor Street. Get off at Washington & Mason (near Cable Car Museum) or Powell & California, a few short blocks from Chinatown.

20 images of Burnley fans sampling the magic of the FA Cup at Portman Road
Players now have clear pathway to first team
Sean Dyche believes there is a clearer route to the first team emerging at Turf Moor.
14th Oct 2015, 12:30pm - 4 min read
England v Germany U18 at the New York Stadium, Rotherham Arlen Birch up against Boubacar Barry
On the back of a string of summer development squad signings, Dyche feels the future looks bright at Burnley, after something of a drought in terms of producing young talent.
The last player to come through the ranks and establish himself in the first team was Jay Rodriguez, who went on to earn a £7m switch to Southampton in 2012.
He signed professional terms in 2007, and went on to score 41 goals in 128 appearances for his hometown club, having emerged the old-fashioned way, from local junior football at Barrowford Celtic, to the centre of excellence at Burnley, the youth team, reserves and then the final step up.
In 2010, Burnley announced they were setting up a development squad to help nurture young talent at Turf Moor, and while young players have subsequently featured for the first team having progressed in that time, none have been able to become regulars in the senior side.
Then manager Brian Laws said at the time: "We are making significant changes to allow us to utilise the development squad and keep them close at hand to the first team.
"We will hand pick the top quality youth players to bring them into the development squad to accelerate their movement upwards. If they are moved into better quality then hopefully they will improve a lot more dramatically.
"Hopefully we will see the benefits of that, certainly within the next 12-18 months when hopefully we will have one or two sniffing around the first team."
But the step between the youth team, in the absence of a reserve side, and the first team squad, has proved a difficult one to bridge.
Dyche feels the investment in development squad players – with AFC Wimbledon striker Daniel Agyei, Shrewsbury Town winger Josh Ginnelly, Derby County midfielder Luke Hendrie, Arsenal midfielder Renny Smith, and Everton right back Arlen Birch brought in – will help change matters.
Chairman Mike Garlick has promised: "The club has ring-fenced a sum of money for the next five years, so that every year we can add to the Development Squad and bring it up to the quality deemed necessary.
"The Premier League windfall has enabled us to plan for the future, rather than just fighting over scraps every year and wondering where the next penny is coming from.
"It is a definite benefit of our legacy of the Premier League season and it's about quality, rather than quantity because with the Development Squad, we want to make sure that some of those players progress to the first team.
"If we are honest with ourselves, over the last 10 to 15 years not enough of that has happened."
And Dyche explained the thinking: "The thing was to get layers. I've mentioned this before, to bring layers into the club. The obvious one is the first team – that speaks for itself really, the first team thinking, being progressive at that level, being competitive, to bring true success.
"Behind that, we have players who play in the first team/development squad combination, where the younger players are playing with the first team squad players, and behind that are the development/Under 18s, and it's getting the blend throughout the club.
"We felt there was a jump from the Under 18s into the top of the development group/first team group, and we wanted that middle group to be more competitive.
"We managed to allow some finance to be used for that group particularly, to try and push not only them, but the players who were already here, and then try and get that true pathway throughout the club, whether it be a 15-year-old going into a scholar, going into the development squad, going into the first team, to try and align that clearly.
"And there has been some good signs already.
"We want that to continue, which is why we are still looking at that group as being a serious one."
With no reserve team at the club any longer, a development squad fixture list has been arranged, including friendlies, Under 21 Premier League Cup and Final Third Development League Cup ties.
Dyche said: "It is the yin and yang of it – with a reserve league you have regular games, but on the other hand, with friendlies we can play any kind of competition – top Premier League sides, Championship, League 1, League 2, however it comes.
"You have a lot more flexibility, and, of course, timings – with the league you would have a similar format, but we have put together games, two a couple of weeks ago for example, and slot them in whenever we need to, as long as the opposition is ready."
The implementation of the Elite Player Performance Plan – a long-term strategy designed to take Youth Development to the next level – has also been an issue.
The EPPP is the result of consultation between the Premier League and its clubs, representatives of the Football League, the Football Association and other key football stakeholders, with six fundamental principles, including increasing the number and quality of home grown players gaining professional contracts and playing first-team football at the highest level.
Burnley are currently Category 3 of four, which restricts recommended spending, hours of coaching and level of opposition.
There has been a school of thought at some clubs outside the elite to disband their youth set ups and cherry pick the players discarded by the likes of Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool and Everton.
Burnley have brought in Birch from Everton for example, but Dyche explained: "Our thinking is purely good players.
"I mentioned a year or so ago we were building a more in-depth recruitment team, and I also mentioned it takes time for that to come to fruition. Now it is showing some signs.
"Different players at different levels of the market are coming to the club, and that is what it is there for, to bring players to develop through our club and beyond, whenever that day comes.
"There is a debate on the development ideas, the EPPP, and that is for another day, we could spend hours and hours with me on my soapbox."

Ebola death toll rises in the DRC
The death toll in the Ebola outbreak in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo has claimed more than 180 lives.
The latest outbreak is spreading in the highly-restive northeastern region of North Kivu, which is home to a clutch of armed groups.
So far a total of 298 cases of haemorrhagic fever have been reported in the region, including 263 confirmed and 35 probable cases, since the declaration of this tenth Ebola epidemic in the DRC.
According to Congolese health authorities, the latest victims to be infected with the virus are a newborn baby and the mother. Both are admitted for care in a specialized centre in Beni region set up by the authorities to stop the progression of the disease and provide care.
On the other hand, more than 25,000 people have received an experimental vaccine in the DRC since August to curb the spread of the virus.
Meanwhile, Uganda will soon begin vaccinating frontline health workers against Ebola as the threat increases of the deadly virus.
It will be the first time the vaccine is used in a country not in the midst of an active Ebola outbreak.

Therefore, we have proven that taking any drug (to this case - alcohol) is not safe for society.
(Aside from disagreeing with your use of the word "proof") Luckily, when I'm king, I do not base any legislation on whether something is "safe for society".
But, we also know that one 100 percent of people who drink alcohol don't do so responsibly.
I certainly do not agree with that. Maybe you meant "We know that it's not the case that 100 % of people who drink do so responsibly"? That I agree with.
So, we are legally introducing another 3-5 percent of the population to inherently endanger other innocent people.
Aside from a couple narrowly defined exceptions, I do not "legislate against potentialities".
1. Why would we knowingly and willingly subject the public safety to a higher increase of impaired drivers/workers, etc.?
Because I think that (1) It's wrong except for that narrow class of instances to legislate against potentialities, and (2) I think it's wrong to prohibit ANY consensual activities, where I'm referring to people directly involved in a particular action, defining "action" in the standard way that it's defined in academic philosophy.
If it's your mom, dad, brother, sister, or child, it might be worth it to keep the increased number of users legally off the road.
My ethics do not change based on my relationship to people.
2. Why are we even discussing legalizing drugs?
Because some of us think it's ridiculous that consensual drug usage is illegal.
What's the purpose of a drug?
Nothing. Non-sentient things do not have purposes. People have purposes and they very with the person.
Other than medicinal purposes (which I am strongly in favor of), we are legalizing drugs for no other reason than for people to mess up their mental faculties, behavior, or physiological functioning. Don't we have better things to pay attention to in our society?
Assuming that drugs "mess up persons' mental faculties", I think it's wrong to prohibit anyone from choosing to mess up their bodies in any way they'd like to.
And the studies that claimed that drug addiction is caused by mental illness?
That is the whole chicken and the egg discussion which is irrelevant anyway*.
My point is that if you don't do drugs there is roughly a 25% chance that you'll have to deal with a mental illness during your lifetime, but once you do drugs it increase to 50%.
And if someone in your family already suffers from a mental illness the chances will only increase.
It already is hard to differentiate between symptoms due to substance intoxication and unrelated psychotic episodes.
*Determining the aetiology of co-morbidity results in a chicken and egg discussion: what came first? Existing research about the causal relations between psychiatric and substance disorders is inconclusive. The symptoms of mental disorder and addiction problems interact and mutually influence each other.
Okay, source for that too. It would probably be worthwhile looking at the research methodology.
"...Because I think that (1) It's wrong except for that narrow class of instances to legislate against potentialities, and (2) I think it's wrong to prohibit ANY consensual activities, where I'm referring to people directly involved in a particular action, defining "action" in the standard way that it's defined in academic philosophy."
Thank you very much. You have intelligently articulated why people who are proponents of legalization of currently illicit drugs have no valid argument.
You value personal freedoms resulting in potentially taking lives over personal freedoms to secure the right to live. Such logic is why a jury pays $2M to a woman dumb enough to pour hot coffee on herself. Such logic is why someone who breaks a leg breaking into a store to rob it receives compensatory money for it.
All I can hope is that the first 30,000 killed by the result of legalized drugs (because, sadly, it probably will become legalized in the not-to-distant future) are those who voted for it. It always takes a while in situations like this to shed light on the almighty dollar making decisions in America. Or the preceived injustices of the few to override the common sense of the many.
That was a BBC program with Stephen Fry: The Secret Life of the Manic Depressive and a Dutch program about alcoholism and mental illness.
- patients with mood or anxiety disorders are about twice as likely to also suffer from a drug disorder (figure).
- patients with drug disorders are roughly twice as likely to be diagnosed with mood or anxiety disorders.
BTW are you denying that hard drugs eventually has a permanent impact on a person's mental health?
Why Do Drug Abuse and Mental Disorders Commonly Co-occur?
Mounting evidence suggests that common genetic factors may predispose individuals to both mental disorders and addiction or to having a greater risk of the second disorder once the first appears.
Stress, trauma (e.g., physical or sexual abuse), and early exposure to drugs are common factors that can lead to addiction and to mental illness, particularly in those with underlying genetic vulnerabilities.
- Involvement of similar brain regions.
Some areas of the brain are affected by both drug abuse and mental disorders. For example, brain circuits linked to reward processing as well as those implicated in the stress response are affected by abused substances and also show abnormalities in specific mental disorders.
- Drug abuse and mental illness are developmental disorders.
They often begin in adolescence or even childhood, periods when the brain is undergoing dramatic developmental changes. Early exposure to drugs of abuse can change the brain in ways that increase the risk for mental illness (figure), just as early symptoms of a mental disorder may increase vulnerability to drug abuse.
lol . . . obviously using some idiosyncratic definition of "validity" there.
You value personal freedoms resulting in potentially taking lives over personal freedoms to secure the right to live.
Well, or I'm more of a libertarian than a liberal is another way to put that.
Such logic is why a jury pays $2M to a woman dumb enough to pour hot coffee on herself.
No, something is wrong with your logic there. Logic was initially one of my aos's in grad school, so maybe I could help you out with that. My point of view is not that that woman was not responsible for spilling coffee on herself. And in cases where someone else's negligence would cause the kinds of physical harm I have prohibitions against, spilt coffee wouldn't get anyone 2 million dollars. If you're thinking that that logically follows somehow, we'd need to check out your logic.
Such logic is why someone who breaks a leg breaking into a store to rob it receives compensatory money for it.
Maybe talk about how you're seeing that as following, and then we can figure out where it's going wrong. Could you list the steps from the views I've expressed to that conclusion?
All I can hope is that the first 30,000 killed by the result of legalized drugs (because, sadly, it probably will become legalized in the not-to-distant future) are those who voted for it.
I see it as extremely unlikely that drugs would ever be legalized (in the US, at least) in my lifetime. As I get older, it seems to me that our society is becoming far less libertarian rather than moreso. I'd be far less surprised to see cigarettes banned in the US than I would be to see drugs legalized. I'm pretty much resigned to the fact that I have to come across as increasingly looney to others in my own culture on this stuff. I don't expect that to change any time soon.
It always takes a while in situations like this to shed light on the almighty dollar making decisions in America.
Well, except my view on this has absolutely nothing to do with economic arguments. I think there are some economic upshots of it, but it's just not the basis of my view at all.
Or the preceived injustices of the few to override the common sense of the many.
The idea of "common sense" might be fun to talk about in a thread dedicated to that.
Okay, Tungsten, I'm not going to go arbitrary item by arbitrary item (as you have done). I'll simplify this since I'm obviously not as intelligent or educated as you. Most are "yes" or "no" (or agree/disagree) questions so as to alleviate the need to for interpretation (or misinterpretation?) or bias.
1. Do you disagree with the statistics that between 10,000-30,000 people are killed annually in alcohol related traffic fatalities?
2. Do you agree that those numbers include innocent people, not just those who abused the consumption of alcohol?
3. Do you agree that the number of those fatalities are committed by the a large minority of those who drink alcohol to excess (or impaired levels) (less than 10%)?
4. Do you think it's inappropriate to put the same percentage of those abusing drugs in the future (if legalized) at the same rough percentage of those that abuse alcohol?
5. Then, by the logic above of application of statistics, (and what you said in your previous post) you are saying that you support the potential increase of innocent lives lost because it's only a potential, and that the gains of people having the freedom to destroy themselves overrides the right to the rest of society to expect to be protected from them?

Any idea where they were getting their percentages from?
Maybe I should clarify something here. When I ask for a source of information, I'm not asking for a website (or magazine article, or whatever) that claims something. I would hope that you do not buy something you read on a website, in a magazine, etc. just because that site, magazine, etc. claims whatever it is that they're claiming. These kinds of claims, if they're to have any legitimacy whatsoever, would have to be sourced in academic research. That academic research is almost always published in peer-reviewed journals. What I'm asking for is a source that would at least refer to the academic research, and the reason for this is that we need to check out the exact claims made in the journal, AND the methodology and reasoning that is being used as support for the claims. An example is the problems I noted earlier for the Williams study.
Yes, stated that way, I'm denying that. Maybe you're not stating it very carefully however. The claim you're making is far too ambiguous.
I should mention though that all of that is irrelevant to my views on whether drugs should be legalized (so if the aim is to sway my views on that, it's a waste of time). The stuff we're bringing up is interesting in its own right, I think, but it's a different topic (for me at least) than whether we believe that drugs should be legal.
I'll simplify this since I'm obviously not as intelligent or educated as you.
I wouldn't agree with "you're obviously not as intelligent as I am". You know what formal education you've had, of course, and I don't, but it doesn't matter, imo. One can know just as much as anyone else without learning those things through the "official channels".
I'd have to look it up . . . seems like a lot of uncertainty there if the range is that large (20k +/- 10k would be a pretty large margin of error, lol), but whatever the number--it's not something I think is really worth quibbling about in this context, I'd agree that it's "many people" at least.
I agree it includes people who weren't drinking, sure.
That claim isn't clear to me, but again, I don't think it matters. We can assume that it's the case.
I think that's arbitrary, but again, no problem assuming that.
Wait, lol--I should have read this whole thing before answering, because it's not showing the steps for what I was asking you to show the steps for.
BUT, none of that has anything to do with believing that I'm in favor of people getting millions of dollars because they spilled coffee on themselves, or suing a business because they slipped and fell their leg while they were robbing it. That's what I was asking about. How are you reaching those conclusions based on what I had said?
An example is the problems I noted earlier for the Williams study.
The problem with this is that every scientific study can 'cancel out' other scientific study.
The same way that for decades smoking was not considered unhealthy because of 'scientific' studies done by the tobacco industry.

Are Sofia Richie And Jaden Smith Dating?
Charly Jordan Claims She Is "Locked" In Rwanda After Testing Positive For COVID-19
After a tumultuous on-again-off-again relationship with Scott Disick over the last few years, it seems Sofia Richie is officially to put the relationship behind her and move on.
With none other than Jaden Smith.
Over the weekend, the 22-year-olds were spotted in photos obtained by the Daily Mail enjoying a flirty beach day with friends— and were even snapped holding hands and cuddling! A source told E! News the two "only had eyes for each other" and spent "all day and night" together."
GAC / MEGA / Daily Mail
Both children of high-profile Hollywood celebs, Sofia and Jaden grew up together in L.A. and share many mutual friends, including Kylie Jenner and Jordyn Woods. The two previously dated back in 2012 at just 14-years-old.
Over the years, Jaden has been romantically linked with Kylie Jenner and Tyler, the Creator. The singer released his latest album just last week, so the jury's out on if this is all just a PR stunt to get some buzz around that.
Fingers crossed it's real!

In November, we celebrated our 40th birthday as an Association with our annual conference, ADHD Interactive. An outstanding event, it provided the opportunities for our members to meet as a community with experts in ADHD ranging from Clinical Psychologists to educators and even a photographer.
As a concept, the interactive conference was a huge success, and we plan to run more of these events around New Zealand over the next year, starting with Wellington.
The highlight of the day was the cutting of our Birthday cake by our founders Jenny, Diane, and Paul. It made us think how far we have come since our founding in 1979. Initially set up as a parent support group, we have continued to evolve and have morphed into ADHD New Zealand. Our membership continues to grow to nearly 1,000 members, with over 5,000 active participants on our Facebook support pages...
...But in 1979, it was quite a different story.
Despite being identified in 1902 by Sir George Still, ADHD was not understood and indeed much maligned. Today, we can only imagine what it would have been like in 1979 when there was a limited understanding of ADHD, no real support and no internet to increase knowledge or aid the development of a supportive community. To form and grow a parent support group would have taken some doing.
Worldwide organisations for ADHD children began when an allergist Dr Ben Feingold in USA found behaviour of children he treated for allergies improved most markedly when foods containing colourings, flavourings, preservatives and salicylates were removed. It became known as the Feingold diet. Now you will find a similar approach on the web under the Failsafe Diet.
In New Zealand, sometime in 1979, a journalist wrote an article in the Wednesday Midweek for Women in the Auckland Star newspaper about the increasing prevalence of problematic children. Pam House wrote to her of her success with her son on the Feingold diet and the journalist wrote another article in which she published Pam's phone number. Pam later reported that her phone did not stop ringing, so much so that she took it off the hook to go to the bathroom. I was a caller. I suggested that she invite those calling to her place where she could tell a collective rather than individuals.
The meeting was amazing with the mother's stories, their desperation and discoveries. As we were washing up some of us agreed that one meeting could not satisfy the need that was so obvious for information – the giving and the collection of these family's experiences. Several others were asked if they felt the same and so a further meeting was arranged with just these women. These were the women who continued to run the Association for the next 28 years – mostly voluntarily!
In 1980, the influential Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders third edition (DSM III)), uses the term "Attention Deficit Disorder" for the first time, and this was upgraded to Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), in 1987. Indeed, since then the level of understanding of ADHD has slowly continued to grow throughout the world, and there have been numerous research studies into ADHD and its associated impact.
By 1990 the demand for help had outgrown this modus operandi and the Association moved into an office. Di Wellacott set up this and the office systems and for years ran the office alone. Later a part time then a full time assistant had to be employed as the workload grew.
By 2008, after nearly 30 years, a major shift in administration was required and a board of directors was formed with Marceline Borren as the CEO. Di stayed involved on a helpline and has recently retired after being amazing for all that time.
A key breakthrough was in 2017 when the Lancet, one of the world's leading medical journals conducted breakthrough research into ADHD which described ADHD as a disorder of the brain, it concludes "This message is clear for clinicians to convey to parents and patients, which can help to reduce the stigma that ADHD is just a label for difficult children and caused by incompetent parenting".
ADHD New Zealand is now 40 years old and continues to support hundreds of families whose children have been diagnosed with ADHD, and need good information and support. In addition we're hearing from adults who were diagnosed as youngsters, or have recently discovered the reason for their quirkiness and are seeking referrals and access to our community.
While the research into ADHD continues to develop and validate what ADHD'rs and their families already know, a greater understanding by society, the education and health sectors have some way to go. This is the challenge that our community and ADHD New Zealand will face into, over the next forty years.
In the meantime, though, we can reflect on how far we have come, and have a slice of birthday cake.
Did you know in the year to October 2019:
we had over 28,000 website visits
reached over 7,300 Facebook members, and
sent over 500 information packs out?
ADHD NZ's interactive Day 2019


Month two of disability leave finds me in the suburbs for most of the time, as money is tight and the city is filled with shiny alcohol and cheap Forever21 frocks that I just have to buy.
I've been staying with Grandma for awhile, after my parents, in a fit of frustration over my lack of cleaning abilities and my tendency to scream downstairs for more water and Panera bread, suggested I go to Grandma's for a few days. (Typical joking conversation between my father and I: "How did you become so spoiled?" Me: "I AM WHAT YOU MADE ME!).
Life with my cousins at G's house has been nothing short of a vacation. It is a world on a whole other level. I love my parents, but the dinner discussion is more likely to be about grad school and colleges for my brother. At Grandma's, we spend 20 minutes discussing the price dry-cleaning one coat's might be at the dry cleaners. ($15, if you're curious.) Easy stuff. And G doesn't look over my shoulder, counting the amount of questions I got right on a GRE practice test. If I were at home with my mother, I'm sure she'd be quizzing me on what "temerity" means. And I would fail.
A few days vacation turned into a month, so here I stay, studying for the GREs and watching marathon episodes of "The Nanny". It's been productive: my score went up 200 points in each section and I can do a dead-on impression of both Fran Fine AND Mr. Sheffield. I hope to continue to do the Fran one all the time, at paid events and impersonator conferences.
I've also spent a lot of time trying to master the moves in Hanson's new video. I did a trial run of my very loose interpretation of the dance in Grandma's kitchen last night and Colleen laughed so hard she choked on her water.
At least I think she was laughing.
I've loved living with my two younger cousins. Last week, we decided to get a bottle of red wine at the local Browntown shopping center. (I have high blood pressure and WINE HELPS!) I got home with my purchase (ten bucks for 2 liters. CAN YOU BEAT THAT?) and was immediately disappointed to discover that we broke the corkscrew the last time we indulged in vino.
After Googling how to open wine without a corkscrew and trying to open ours with a shoe like some dude on YouTube, little cousin Colleen (also known as Jolly) decided to push the cork all the way down, into the bottle. My lack of knowledge regarding physics did not prepare me for what was about to occur.
Throwing caution to the wind, we took our place on the kitchen table, in the presence of two laptops and my beloved iPhone. Having lost my iPhone to a wine spillage before, I covered it with a napkin just in case. Jolly pushed the cork, as I held the bottle. Colleen pushed and pushed on the cork until we heard a satisfying pop! of victory. I looked up just in time to get sprayed in the face with pungent cheap red wine.
Jolly lost two of her favorite shirts and my laptop is permanently stained red but we poured ourselves a glass and moved on.
The next morning, I was chatting with Grandma in the kitchen. She was making her usual cup of tea when I looked up at the ceiling and down at the walls. They were absolutely covered in specks of our cheap Yellow Tail wine. Horrified, I attempted to distract G from this sight.
Samantha and I spent the rest of the morning scrubbing our family history off the walls and ceiling.
It took a long time. But even though I was elbow deep in 409, I was immensely grateful for the position I am in. I have been afforded the opportunity to rest and be well.
I haven't been sick every day of this disability leave, but I have used every day to reflect upon the position I've found myself in. Without having to work full-time, I have been graciously allowed to be well and revel in it. It has been a long time since I've had such a stretch of good health. (And by stretch, I mean two weeks). So I have lived in these moments. They have been big and small and sad and happy but altogether, they have been meaningful.
This morning, I woke up with a mouthful of sores and a fever. Instead of wondering why this happened, I decided to just accept it. I am not better but that's okay.
I will accept it, be happy, and move on.
For now, at least- this is a reasonable goal.
Glad you are enjoying your time off. Get well!
I watch the Nanny eveyone night too! Drives my hubs nuts!
Hilarious!! I don't know what is a funnier image, you scrubbing wine off the walls or dancing to the Hanson video. Either way, you sure are one entertaining lady.

Hofstqdter Richard Hofstadter born February 15, is Hofstadtee American scholar of cognitive sciencephysicsand comparative literature whose research includes concepts such as the sense of self in relation to the external world, [1] [4] Douglas Hofstadter, analogy-making, artistic creation, literary translation, and discovery in mathematics and physics. He graduated with Distinction in mathematics from Douglzs University inand received his Ph.
Inhe moved to the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, where he was hired as Hofstatder professor of psychology and was also appointed to the Walgreen Chair for the Study of Human Understanding. In he returned to Stenbocken Idag as "College of Arts and Sciences Professor" in both cognitive science and computer science.
At the University of Michigan and Indiana University, he and Melanie Mitchell coauthored a computational model of "high-level perception"— Copycat —and several other models Doglas analogy-making and cognitionincluding the Tabletop project, co-developed with Robert M.
Hofstadter's doctoral student James Primitive Community Definition subsequently extended the Copycat project under the name "Metacat". Hofstadter has had several exhibitions of his artwork in various Doublas galleries. Hofstadter invented the term "ambigram" in ; many ambigrammists have since taken up the concept.
Hofstadter's thesis about consciousness, first expressed in Gödel, Escher, Bach but also present in several of his later books, is that it is an emergent consequence of seething lower-level activity in the brain. In Gödel, Escher, Bach he draws an analogy between the social organization Lana Rain Porn a colony of ants and the mind seen as a coherent "colony" of neurons.
In particular, Hofstadter claims that our sense of having or being an "I" comes from the Douglas Hofstadter pattern he terms a " strange loop ", an abstract cousin of such concrete phenomena as audio and video Dpuglas that Hofstadter Hofstadted defined Douglas Hofstadter "a level-crossing feedback loop". The prototypical example of a strange loop is the self-referential structure at the core of Gödel's incompleteness theorems.
Hofstadter's book I Am a Strange Loop carries his vision of consciousness considerably further, including the idea that each human "I" is distributed over numerous brains, rather than being limited to one.
In this book, Hofstadter jokingly describes Douglas Hofstadter as " pilingual " meaning that the sum total of the varying degrees of mastery of all the languages that he has studied comes to 3. Inthe bicentennial year of the Douglaz poet and writer Alexander PushkinHofstadter published a verse translation of Pushkin's classic novel-in-verse Eugene Jenna Jameson Gif. Hofstadter's Law is "It always takes longer than you expect, even when you take into account Hofstadter's Law.
Hofstadter's former Ph. Hofstadter has said that he feels "uncomfortable with Refuse From nerd culture that centers on computers". He admits that "a large fraction [of his audience] seems to be those who are fascinated Douglas Hofstadter technology", but when it was suggested that his work "has inspired many students to begin careers in computing and artificial intelligence" he replied that he was pleased about that, but that he himself has "no interest in computers".
Provoked by predictions Family Control a technological singularity Hofstzdter hypothetical moment in the future of humanity when a self-reinforcing, runaway Douglas Hofstadter of artificial intelligence Doyglas a radical change Hofstqdter technology and cultureHofstadter has both organized and participated in several public discussions of the topic.
Hofstadter was also an invited panelist at the first Singularity Summitheld at Stanford in May Hofstadter expressed doubt that the singularity will occur in the foreseeable future.
It Douglxs interviews with Hofstadtsr about his work. When Martin Gardner retired from writing his " Mathematical Games " column for Scientific American magazine, Hofstadter Marie Richardson Nude him in —83 with a column titled Metamagical Themas an anagram of "Mathematical Games". An Douglas Hofstadter he introduced in one of these columns was the concept of "Reviews of This Book", a book containing nothing but cross-referenced reviews of itself that has an online implementation.
Hofstadter was Douglas Hofstadter to Carol Ann Brush until her death. They met in Bloomington, and married in Ann Arbor in They had two children, Danny and Monica. Carol died in from the sudden onset of a brain tumor, glioblastoma multiformewhen their children were 5 and 2.

The word geothermal comes from two Greek words – 'geo' meaning of the Earth, and 'thermal' meaning heat. Therefore, geothermal energy is energy produced from the heat of the Earth. If we took a slice through the Earth, we would find that it was made up of a number of layers with an extremely hot core at the centre.
The deeper we go, the hotter it gets. When water seeps into the ground, it percolates until it gets to a layer of rock that is impermeable, meaning it will not let any water seep through. If the rock that the water is surrounded by is hot, the water gets heated, and if there is a big enough reservoir of hot water, this resource can be used to generate electricity.
A geothermal power plant drills wells into a reservoir and uses either the steam or hot water from within the Earth to generate energy. In New Zealand, we have a number of geothermal power plants, most of them in the central North Island, like the Wairakei geothermal power plant near Taupo, which has wells sunk to an average depth of 600 metres and uses hot water with temperatures of 200–250°C. This hot water is used to generate dry steam, which can drive large turbines used to generate electricity.
Steam makes the large blades of the turbine spin, transforming heat energy into kinetic energy. The turbine is attached to a generator, which uses electromagnets to transform the kinetic energy into electrical energy that we use. At present, geothermal energy supplies around seven percent of New Zealand's energy, although there is potential to supply much more.
One of the problems faced with using hot water in electricity production is what to do with the water once it has been though the plant. Two methods are used – discharge and reinjection.
Discharge is when the spent water is released into a surface water source. For example, Wairakei discharges water directly into the Waikato River. Originally, this was the only method used to dispose of the hot water, but problems arose.
These include a change in water chemistry as dissolved solids from the geothermal water entered the river (an increase in elements such as arsenic) and changes in pH level and water temperature, as well as ground subsidence and reduced geothermal activity from the removal of too much water. Changed water temperatures also have an effect on the nearby flora and fauna. To counter these problems, the amount of water discharged was reduced. Currently, around 60,000 tonnes of water are discharged into the Waikato River daily.

Did the US fire a missile at a bus in Yemen?
The bomb dropped on a school bus in Yemen by a Saudi-led coalition warplane was sold to Riyadh by the US, according to reports based on analysis of the debris. A spokesperson for Lockheed Martin referred questions about the bombing to the Pentagon.
Who was Yemen bombed by?
On December 3, 2015 an airstrike by the Saudi Arabian-led intervention in Yemen hit a health center in Taiz, wounding nine people. Two hospital staff were among the wounded. "The bombing of civilians and hospitals is a violation of international humanitarian law," said Jerome Alin, head of MSF head of mission in Yemen.
Why is there a crisis in Yemen?
The country's humanitarian crisis is said to be the worst in the world, due to widespread hunger, disease, and attacks on civilians. The UN-backed peace process has stalled, and the Trump administration's designation of the Houthis as terrorists has prompted fears of continued conflict and further suffering.
Did Yemen attack Saudi?
Yemen's Houthis claim to have launched drone attacks against Saudi Arabian energy giant Aramco's facilities, amid a surge in fighting between the rebels and forces loyal to the Riyadh-backed government in Yemen. Neither Aramco nor Saudi authorities immediately confirmed the attack.

What is wrong with Saudi Arabia?
Saudi Arabia faced unprecedented international criticism in 2019 for its human rights record, including the failure to provide full accountability for the murder of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi by Saudi agents in October 2018, as well as the country's dismal treatment of Saudi dissidents and human rights activists.
Who is helping Yemen?
Yemen is facing the largest humanitarian crisis of our time. The International Rescue Committee provides lifesaving emergency aid, clean water, education, women's protection and medical care to millions of people in Yemen affected by violent conflict and a growing health crisis that now includes COVID-19.
Does Lockheed make bombs?
The Paveway II Plus Laser Guided Bomb from Lockheed Martin integrates an advanced guidance system to convert conventional gravity bombs into precision guided munitions. Paveway II Plus LGB can be used in all Paveway II LGB weapon configurations and aircraft, and is compatible with the MK 80 series and BLU-109 warheads.
How many schools are in Yemen?
Basic education schools increased from around 9930 schools in 2000 to 10293 schools in 2002 and 10684 in 2004. The number of classrooms also showed an increase from 97,462 classrooms in 2003 to 98329 in 2004.
