From the NFL protests to Hurricane Maria to the U.S./North Korea political tensions, it's hard for those who follow the news to see anything positive happening in the world. However, that doesn't mean there's no positive news. In fact, while people have been protesting for change in some sectors of society, in other areas, there have been great strides made to the progress of people both in America and abroad. In this past week alone, two significant events occurred that could really change the game in the struggle for gender equality here at home and around the globe.
One of these new developments happened right here in the United States, specifically in our United States Marine Corps. For the first time in American military history, a woman has successfully completed the USMC Infantry Officer Course, considered one of the most physically and mentally demanding officer courses in the U.S. military. The unnamed Marine was able to graduate with the rank of Lieutenant and, upon deployment, will be assigned to the 1st Marine Division at Camp Pendleton. While 36 women have previously attempted the course, none had succeeded prior to this woman. The course is a grueling, 13-week-long trial that tests multiple attributes, including strength, endurance and leadership. Candidates are required to complete long marches, difficult obstacles, weapon assembly and show the capacity to carry up to 152 pounds of gear, to name a few tasks. While the process to integrate women into the military has been extremely slow, since it was only last year that all combat positions were opened to women, the various branches of the military have not shied away from praising those women who complete the tests that have been standard for their male counterparts for decades. The military, with this development and the addition of three women to the U.S. Army Rangers including one infantry officer, have hopes that women will soon be integrated into special operations positions as well.
In another development for women and gender equality, Saudi Arabia's King Salman has passed a decree declaring that women are to be permitted to drive vehicles for the first time in the country's history starting next June. This debate has spanned several years and seen many women's rights activists in Saudi Arabia arrested for driving vehicles in protest. While there was no law on the books preventing women from driving, the ultra-conservative Islamic nation did not allow women to receive the permits needed to drive, and the requirements of male guardianship and permission to do most things in public prevented all but the wealthiest of women from even traveling far from home. And, while women were permitted as of 2015 to vote and to hold public office and are allowed to work outside the home, the cost to have a driver has thus far prevented many women from seeking out employment. With the lowering demand for oil and subsequent drop in oil prices, this decree comes as a part of sweeping economic changes that the new king has planned in order to keep Saudi Arabia's government successful. A committee will have 30 days to determine how the law will be implemented and what, if anything, will have to be changed in order to allow women to drive legally as men do. And, while conservative clerics are clinging to the notion that driving will cause a social downfall or ruin women's ovaries, the younger generations of Saudis are pushing for changes to make the nation more appealing to foreign visitors as well as themselves. While many might wonder why women driving is such big news in 2017, it is a great leap forward for the last remaining nation that did not allow women to drive.
So far, 2017 has proven to be full of changes around the world for women's rights and gender equality activists. India joined multiple nations in passing a law allowing women to take the first day off of their periods each month without penalty if they need to. New York passed a new child marriage law which would ban marriage before the age of 17 completely, and only with a judge's permission could someone wed at age 17. While the world has a long way to go, seeing as these laws are considered revolutionary, this year has proven that there is forward momentum on critical human issues, and that gender issues are being seen as critical issues in governments across the world.


The Planning and Development Department Inspections Division is responsible for the issuance of permits for construction activities to assure compliance with all applicable codes and ordinances. We are dedicated to the City of Rock Hill's desire to provide the finest service possible by continually researching and implementing innovative policies, procedures and advanced computer technology.
The address and permit placard must be posted and visible from the road or street and the placard accessible to the inspector. The permit placard is to be protected from the weather. A weather proof enclosure is recommended. Plastic wrap and bags will not protect due to leakage and condensation.
Plans stamped as "Field Copy" and any comment sheets from the Permit Application Center are to be onsite for all inspections. The plans are required to be kept at the job site for the duration of the project.
Readily available toilet facilities (within 300 feet of the job site).
Silt fencing for erosion control must be in place prior to clearing or grading.
Gravel entry or paved access to site. Construction may not begin until fire hydrants and roads serving the construction location are approved for use by the fire marshal.
Inspections are performed between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. For your convenience the City provides a 24 hour inspection line and any request called in prior to 3:00 p.m. will be scheduled for the following day.
To request an inspection online visit our Online Services website. Inspections requested from the web prior to 7:00 a.m. may be scheduled for the same day. Inspection status results are also available online at the Online Services website.
Please note, a minimum of a final inspection should be scheduled on any permit. Any permit that doesn't have any inspections scheduled will automatically be expired after 6 months. A permit that doesn't receive any inspections can be considered an open building code violation. This may create a problem during a real estate transaction like the sale of a home.
For new commercial buildings, all final inspection requests should be requested by phone at 803-329-5590 seven days in advance of when you need the C.O. This will allow the permit staff to schedule all of the final inspectors that may need to visit your site and get some required information from you for the final inspection request. See the inspection checklists below for more information about the final inspections. You can also see How to Obtain Your Certificate of Occupancy for Commercial Buildings and the Final Inspection Checklist.
To schedule inspections or for more information, contact the Permit Application Center (PAC) at 803-329-5590 or by email.


Saatchi & Saatchi Argentina takes Shwepps down memory lane in a 'One Day You'll Understand' campaign.
Appealing to Generation X, the ad recalls times when photos took days to be seen, songs were played on "square bits of plastic" (aka cassettes) and dial-up internet made horrible noises, to demonstrate how the quality and enjoyment of Schwepps has withstood the test of time.
Giving humor to the video is the expressions of those from Generation Y, who cannot comprehend a time without today's modern luxuries.
The step back in time is a unique way to appeal to Generation X, with Saatchi & Saatchi hoping nostalgia with hold greater appeal compared to ad which tried to make the present seem exciting.


text:
Allestädesnärvaro, att vara ubikvitär eller omnipresent (latin omnipraesentia, tyska Allgegenwart), innebär Guds närvaro i alla ting, överallt. Religiösa tror att Gud är allestädesnärvarande genom sin oändlighet, och allestädesnärvaron står i samband med Guds allmakt och allvetande. Allestädesnärvaro är en egenskap som av flera religioner tillskrivs gud.
Med närvaro avses att Gud alltid är nära och beredd att ingripa, däremot inte att Gud skulle vara utbredd i rummet.. I det gamla testamentet omtalas Guds allestädesnärvaro i Psaltarens psalm 139.

Subject and Predicates
"A Chu space is a set X of subjects and a set A of predicates on those subjects. These stand in a symbiotic relationship in which the nature of each is determined by the other. Each subject is characterized by the values the predicates take on it, while each predicate is characterized by its values on subjects."
— Vaughan Pratt, Chu Spaces
Click here for Sambin's paper (ps).
It would seem that Pratt and Sambin need to reconcile their similar predicates for the same subject.

Immoveable Feast
Today is a holiday of the Roman Catholic Church: the feast of St. Germain, Bishop of Paris. St. Germain is now known for the neighborhood that bears his name, home to what is said to be the oldest church in Paris, and a boulevard…
"… I met Joyce who was walking along the Boulevard St.-Germain after having been to a matinée alone. He liked to listen to the actors, although he could not see them. He asked me to have a drink with him and we went to the Deux-Magots…."

Drama of the Diagonal,
Part Deux
Wednesday's entry The Turning discussed a work by Roger Cooke. Cooke presents a
"fanciful story (based on Plato's dialogue Meno)."
The History of Mathematics is the title of the Cooke book.
Associated Press thought for today:
"History is not, of course, a cookbook offering pretested recipes. It teaches by analogy, not by maxims. It can illuminate the consequences of actions in comparable situations, yet each generation must discover for itself what situations are in fact comparable."
— Henry Kissinger (whose birthday is today)
For Henry Kissinger on his birthday:
a link to Geometry for Jews.
This link suggests a search for material
on the art of Sol LeWitt, which leads to
an article by Barry Cipra,
The "Sol LeWitt" Puzzle:
A Problem in 16 Squares (ps),
a discussion of a 4×4 array
of square linear designs.
Cipra says that
"If you like, there are three symmetry groups lurking within the LeWitt puzzle: the rotation/reflection group of order 8, a toroidal group of order 16, and an 'existential'* group of order 16. The first group is the most obvious. The third, once you see it, is also obvious."
* Jean-Paul Sartre,
Being and Nothingness,
Philosophical Library, 1956
[reference by Cipra]
For another famous group lurking near, if not within, a 4×4 array, click on Kissinger's birthday link above.
Kissinger's remark (above) on analogy suggests the following analogy to the previous entry's (Drama of the Diagonal) figure:
Logos Alogos II:
This figure in turn, together with Cipra's reference to Sartre, suggests the following excerpts (via Amazon.com)–
From Sartre's Being and Nothingness, translated by Hazel E. Barnes, 1993 Washington Square Press reprint edition:
1. on Page 51:
"He makes himself known to himself from the other side of the world and he looks from the horizon toward himself to recover his inner being. Man is 'a being of distances.'"
2. on Page 154:
"… impossible, for the for-itself attained by the realization of the Possible will make itself be as for-itself–that is, with another horizon of possibilities. Hence the constant disappointment which accompanies repletion, the famous: 'Is it only this?'…."
"… end of the desires. But the possible repletion appears as a non-positional correlate of the non-thetic self-consciousness on the horizon of the glass-in-the-midst-of-the-world."
"… it is in time that my possibilities appear on the horizon of the world which they make mine. If, then, human reality is itself apprehended as temporal…."
"… else time is an illusion and chronology disguises a strictly logical order of deducibility. If the future is pre-outlined on the horizon of the world, this can be only by a being which is its own future; that is, which is to come…."
"… It appears on the horizon to announce to me what I am from the standpoint of what I shall be."
"… the boat or the yacht to be overtaken, and the entire world (spectators, performance, etc.) which is profiled on the horizon. It is on the common ground of this co-existence that the abrupt revelation of my 'being-unto-death'…."
"… eyes as objects which manifest the look. The Other can not even be the object aimed at emptily at the horizon of my being for the Other."
"… defending and against which he was leaning as against a wail, suddenly opens fan-wise and becomes the foreground, the welcoming horizon toward which he is fleeing for refuge."
10. on Page 502:
"… desires her in so far as this sleep appears on the ground of consciousness. Consciousness therefore remains always at the horizon of the desired body; it makes the meaning and the unity of the body."
"… itself body in order to appropriate the Other's body apprehended as an organic totality in situation with consciousness on the horizon— what then is the meaning of desire?"
"I was already outlining an interpretation of his reply; I transported myself already to the four corners of the horizon, ready to return from there to Pierre in order to understand him."
"Thus to the extent that I appear to myself as creating objects by the sole relation of appropriation, these objects are myself. The pen and the pipe, the clothing, the desk, the house– are myself. The totality of my possessions reflects the totality of my being. I am what I have. It is I myself which I touch in this cup, in this trinket. This mountain which I climb is myself to the extent that I conquer it; and when I am at its summit, which I have 'achieved' at the cost of this same effort, when I attain this magnificent view of the valley and the surrounding peaks, then I am the view; the panorama is myself dilated to the horizon, for it exists only through me, only for me."

last horizon remark:

Drama of the Diagonal
"The beautiful in mathematics
resides in contradiction.
Incommensurability, logoi alogoi, was
the first splendor in mathematics."
— Simone Weil, Oeuvres Choisies,
éd. Quarto , Gallimard, 1999, p. 100
Logos Alogos
by S. H. Cullinane
"To a mathematician, mathematical entities have their own existence, they habitate spaces created by their intention. They do things, things happen to them, they relate to one another. We can imagine on their behalf all sorts of stories, providing they don't contradict what we know of them. The drama of the diagonal, of the square…"
— Dennis Guedj, abstract of "The Drama of Mathematics," a talk to be given this July at the Mykonos conference on mathematics and narrative.
For the drama of the diagonal of the square, see
Plato's Meno,
The previous entry,

The Story of Diamond Theory
Comments Off on Thursday May 26, 2005
The previous entry dealt with a transformation
of the diamond figure from Plato's Meno
into a visual proof of the Pythagorean theorem:
Here is a transformation of Plato's diamond
into the "gyronny" pattern of heraldry:
Viking Heraldry
For the mathematics dealing with
this sort of transformation, see
The Diamond 16 Puzzle and Diamond Theory.
Readers who have an Amazon.com account may view book pages relevant to the previous entry. See page 77 of The Way We Think, by Fauconnier and Turner (Amazon search term = Meno). This page discusses both the Pythagorean theorem and Plato's diamond figure in the Meno, but fails to "blend" these two topics. See also page 53 of The History of Mathematics, by Roger Cooke (first edition), where these two topics are in fact blended (Amazon search term = Pythagorean). The illustration below is drawn from the Cooke book.
Cooke demonstrates how the Pythagorean theorem might have been derived by "blending" Plato's diamond (left) with the idea of moving the diamond's corners (right).
The previous entry dealt with a conference on mathematics and narrative. Above is an example I like of mathematics…. Here is an example I like of narrative:
Kate felt quite dizzy. She didn't know exactly what it was
that had just happened, but she felt pretty damn  certain  that
it  was  the  sort of experience that her mother would not have
approved of on a first date.
"Is this all part of what we have to do to go to  Asgard?"
she said. "Or are you just fooling around?"
"We will go to Asgard...now," he said.
At that moment he raised his hand as if to pluck an apple,
but instead of plucking he made a tiny, sharp turning movement.
The effect  was as if he had twisted the entire world through a
billionth part of a billionth  part  of  a  degree.  Everything
shifted,  was  for  a  moment  minutely  out of focus, and then
snapped back again as a suddenly different world.
— Douglas Adams, The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul
And here is a blend of the concepts "Asgard" and "conference":
"Asgard
During the Interuniverse Society conference,
a bridge was opened to Valhalla…."
In Norse myth, the rainbow bridge
that connected Earth to Asgard,
home of the gods. It was extended
to Tellus Tertius during the
Interuniverse Society conference"

"Poetry is a satisfying of
the desire for resemblance….
If resemblance is described as
a partial similarity between
two dissimilar things,
it complements and reinforces
that which the two dissimilar things
have in common.
It makes it brilliant."
— Wallace Stevens,
"Three Academic Pieces" in
The Necessary Angel (1951)
Two dissimilar things:
1. A talk to be given at a conference on "Mathematics and Narrative" in Mykonos in July:
Mark Turner,
"The Role of Narrative Imagining in Blended Mathematical Concepts" —
"The Way We Think (Gilles Fauconnier and Mark Turner; Basic Books, 2002) presents a theory of conceptual integration, or "blending," as a basic mental operation. See http://blending.stanford.edu. This talk will explore some ways in which narrative imagining plays a role in blended mathematical concepts."
2. An application of the "conceptual blending" of Fauconnier and Turner to some journal entries of 2004: Cognitive Blending and the Two Cultures.
Final Arrangements, continued:
Two Poles
From erraticimpact.com on Paul Ricoeur:
"Ricoeur reserves his greatest admiration for
the narratologist Algirdas-Julien Greimas.
[See below.]
Ricoeur also explores the relationship
between the philosophical and religious
domains, attempting to reconcile
the two poles in his thought."
From today's NYT obituary of Sol Stetin:
"Mr. Stetin, who emigrated from Poland at the age of 10 and dropped out of high school in the ninth grade, was fond of saying he got his education in the labor movement."
Elementary Art
From Log24 on May 2, 2005:
"… it is not in isolation that the rhetorical power of such oppositions resides, but in their articulation in relation to other oppositions. In Aristotle's Physics the four elements of earth, air, fire and water were said to be opposed in pairs. For more than two thousand years oppositional patterns based on these four elements were widely accepted as the fundamental structure underlying surface reality….
The structuralist semiotician Algirdas Greimas introduced the semiotic square (which he adapted from the 'logical square' of scholastic philosophy) as a means of analysing paired concepts more fully…."

Theme and Variations.

Anyone have an opinion?"

Further background:
From "The Relations between
Poetry and Painting," by Wallace Stevens:
"The theory of poetry, that is to say, the total of the theories of poetry, often seems to become in time a mystical theology or, more simply, a mystique. The reason for this must by now be clear. The reason is the same reason why the pictures in a museum of modern art often seem to become in time a mystical aesthetic, a prodigious search of appearance, as if to find a way of saying and of establishing that all things, whether below or above appearance, are one and that it is only through reality, in which they are reflected or, it may be, joined together, that we can reach them. Under such stress, reality changes from substance to subtlety, a subtlety in which it was natural for Cézanne to say: 'I see planes bestriding each other and sometimes straight lines seem to me to fall' or 'Planes in color. . . . The colored area where shimmer the souls of the planes, in the blaze of the kindled prism, the meeting of planes in the sunlight.' The conversion of our Lumpenwelt went far beyond this. It was from the point of view of another subtlety that Klee could write: 'But he is one chosen that today comes near to the secret places where original law fosters all evolution. And what artist would not establish himself there where the organic center of all movement in time and space—which he calls the mind or heart of creation— determines every function.' Conceding that this sounds a bit like sacerdotal jargon, that is not too much to allow to those that have helped to create a new reality, a modern reality, since what has been created is nothing less."

From the labyrinth of Solitude:

Columbia News obituary of Robert D. Cumming
(Phenomenology and Deconstruction, Vol 4
by Robert Denoon Cumming)
On page 13 of Solitude —
From Heidegger's "Letter on Humanism" —
"… so long as philosophy merely busies itself with continually obstructing the possibility of admission to the subject of thinking– that is, the truth of being– it escapes the danger of ever being broken against the hardness of that subject. Thus 'philosophizing' about the shattering is separated by an abyss from a thinking that is shattered."
This suggests a search for
"Heidegger" + "diamond," which yields —

From Margalit Fox in today's New York Times:
"Eddie Barclay, who for three decades after World War II was arguably the most powerful music mogul in Europe and inarguably the most flamboyant, died on [Friday] May 13 in Paris. He was 84….
… Mr. Barclay was best known for three things: popularizing American jazz in France in the postwar years; keeping the traditional French chanson alive into the age of rock 'n' roll; and presiding over parties so lavish that they were considered just the tiniest bit excessive even by the standards of the French Riviera….
Among the guests at some of his glittering parties… Jack Nicholson…."
"Joyce's confidant in Zurich in 1918, Frank Budgen, luckily for us described the process of writing Ulysses…. 'Not Bloom, not Stephen is here the principal personage, but Dublin itself… All towns are labyrinths…' While working… Joyce bought a game called Labyrinth, which he played every evening for a time with his daughter, Lucia. From this game he cataloged the six main errors of judgment into which one might fall in seeking a way out of a maze."

Geometry and Theology
C. S. Lewis on this topic (pdf) and
Mark L. Olson on C. S. Lewis and Greg Egan,
the science fiction writer mentioned in a Friday entry.
Mark Olson's article is at the website of the New England Science Fiction Association, publisher of Ingathering: The Complete People Stories of Zenna Henderson. This book, by one of my favorite science-fiction authors, was apparently edited by the same Mark Olson.
The following remarks seem relevant to the recurring telepathy theme in Henderson:
From the first article cited above,
David L. Neuhouser,
Higher Dimensions in the Writings of C. S. Lewis (pdf):
"If we are three-dimensional cross-sections of four-dimensional reality, perhaps we are parts of the same body. In fact, we know we are parts of the same body in some way, this four-dimensional idea just may help us to see it more clearly. Remember the preceding comments are mine, not Lewis's. He puts it this way, 'That we can die "in" Adam and live "in" Christ seems to me to imply that man as he really is differs a good deal from man as our categories of thought and our three-dimensional imaginations represent him; that the separateness… which we discern between individuals, is balanced, in absolute reality, by some kind of inter-inanimation of which we have no conception at all. It may be that the acts and sufferings of great archetypal individuals such as Adam and Christ are ours, not by legal fiction, metaphor, or causality, but in some much deeper fashion. There is no question, of course, of individuals melting down into a kind of spiritual continuum such as Pantheistic systems believe in; that is excluded by the whole tenor of our faith.'"
From Webster's Unabridged, 1913 edition:
inanimate, v. t.
[Pref. in- in (or intensively) + animate.]
To animate. [Obs.] — Donne.
inanimation, n.
Infusion of life or vigor;
animation; inspiration. [Obs.]
The inanimation of Christ
living and breathing within us.
— Bp. Hall.
Also from the 1913 Webster's:
circumincession, n.
[Pref. circum- + L. incedere, incessum, to walk.]
(Theol.) The reciprocal existence in each other
of the three persons of the Trinity.
From an online essay:
perichoresis, n.
"The term means mutual indwelling or, better, mutual interpenetration and refers to the understanding of both the Trinity and Christology. In the divine perichoresis, each person has 'being in each other without coalescence' (John of Damascus ca. 650). The roots of this doctrine are long and deep."
— Bert Waggoner
coinherence, n.
"In our human experience of personhood, at any rate in a fallen world, there is in each person an inevitable element of exclusiveness, of opaqueness and impenetrability. But with the three divine persons it is not so. Each is entirely 'open' to the others, totally transparent and receptive. This transparency and receptivity is summed up in the Greek notion of perichoresis, which Gibbon once called 'the deepest and darkest corner of the whole theological abyss.' Rendered in Latin as circumincessio and in English usually as 'coinherence,' the Greek term means literally, cyclical movement, and so reciprocity, interchange, mutual indwelling. The prefix peri bears the sense 'around,' while choresis is linked with chora, 'room,' space,' 'place' or 'container,' and with chorein, to 'go,' 'advance,' 'make room for' or 'contain.' Some also see a connection with choros, 'dance,' and so they take perichoresis to mean 'round dance.' Applied to Christ, the term signifies that his two natures, the divine and the human, interpenetrate one another without separation and without confusion. Applied to the Trinity, it signifies that each person 'contains' the other two and 'moves' within them. In the words of St Gregory of Nyssa, 'All that is the Father's is seen in the Son, and all that is the Son's belongs also the Father. For the whole Son abides in the Father, and he has in his turn the whole Father abiding in himself.'
By virtue of this perichoresis, Father, Son and Holy Spirit 'coinhere' in one another, each dwelling in the other two through an unceasing movement of mutual love – the 'round dance' of the Trinity."

After the wrap-up of all the nothing that's come before, the announcer intones ominously, 'And now, as the end of the world draws near, Revelations continues.' Well, no. Here, where Revelations is continuing, the end of the world is not drawing near. Or is NBC genuinely aiming for the crowd who thinks The Rapture Index is a valuable and educational resource?

The Fano Plane
Revisualized:
or, The Eightfold Cube
Here is the usual model of the seven points and seven lines (including the circle) of the smallest finite projective plane (the Fano plane):
Every permutation of the plane's points that preserves collinearity is a symmetry of the plane. The group of symmetries of the Fano plane is of order 168 and is isomorphic to the group PSL(2,7) = PSL(3,2) = GL(3,2). (See Cameron on linear groups (pdf).)
The above model indicates with great clarity six symmetries of the plane– those it shares with the equilateral triangle. It does not, however, indicate where the other 162 symmetries come from.
Shown below is a new model of this same projective plane, using partitions of cubes to represent points:
The cubes' partitioning planes are added in binary (1+1=0) fashion. Three partitioned cubes are collinear if and only if their partitioning planes' binary sum equals zero.
The second model is useful because it lets us generate naturally all 168 symmetries of the Fano plane by splitting a cube into a set of four parallel 1x1x2 slices in the three ways possible, then arbitrarily permuting the slices in each of the three sets of four. See examples below.
For a proof that such permutations generate the 168 symmetries, see Binary Coordinate Systems.
(Note that this procedure, if regarded as acting on the set of eight individual subcubes of each cube in the diagram, actually generates a group of 168*8 = 1,344 permutations. But the group's action on the diagram's seven partitions of the subcubes yields only 168 distinct results. This illustrates the difference between affine and projective spaces over the binary field GF(2). In a related 2x2x2 cubic model of the affine 3-space over GF(2) whose "points" are individual subcubes, the group of eight translations is generated by interchanges of parallel 2x2x1 cube-slices. This is clearly a subgroup of the group generated by permuting 1x1x2 cube-slices. Such translations in the affine 3-space have no effect on the projective plane, since they leave each of the plane model's seven partitions– the "points" of the plane– invariant.)
To view the cubes model in a wider context, see Galois Geometry, Block Designs, and Finite-Geometry Models.
For another application of the points-as-partitions technique, see Latin-Square Geometry: Orthogonal Latin Squares as Skew Lines.
For more on the plane's symmetry group in another guise, see John Baez on Klein's Quartic Curve and the online book The Eightfold Way. For more on the mathematics of cubic models, see Solomon's Cube.

A Dance Results
Roger Kimball on Rosalind Krauss's
The Optical Unconscious:
"Professor Krauss even uses many of the same decorations with which she festooned earlier volumes. Bataille's photograph of a big toe, for example, which I like to think of as her mascot, reappears. As does her favorite doodle, a little graph known as a 'Klein Group' or 'L Schema' whose sides and diagonals sport arrows pointing to corners labeled with various opposing pairs: e.g., 'ground' and 'not ground,' 'figure' and 'not figure.' Professor Krauss seems to believe that this device, lifted from the pages of structuralist theory, illuminates any number of deep mysteries: the nature of modernism, to begin with, but also the essence of gender relations, self-consciousness, perception, vision, castration anxiety, and other pressing conundrums that, as it happens, she has trouble distinguishing from the nature of modernism. Altogether, the doodle is a handy thing to have around. One is not surprised that Professor Krauss reproduces it many times in her new book."
From Drid Williams,
The Semiotics of Human Action,
Ritual, and Dance:
This is closely related to
Beckett's "Quad" figure
A Jungian on this six-line figure:
"They are the same six lines
that exist in the I Ching….
Now observe the square more closely:
four of the lines are of equal length,
the other two are longer….
For this reason symmetry
cannot be statically produced
and a dance results."
— Marie-Louise von Franz,
Number and Time (1970)
and to the Greimas "semiotic square":
"People have believed in the fundamental character of binary oppositions since at least classical times. For instance, in his Metaphysics Aristotle advanced as primary oppositions: form/matter, natural/unnatural, active/passive, whole/part, unity/variety, before/after and being/not-being.* But it is not in isolation that the rhetorical power of such oppositions resides, but in their articulation in relation to other oppositions. In Aristotle's Physics the four elements of earth, air, fire and water were said to be opposed in pairs. For more than two thousand years oppositional patterns based on these four elements were widely accepted as the fundamental structure underlying surface reality….
The structuralist semiotician Algirdas Greimas introduced the semiotic square (which he adapted from the 'logical square' of scholastic philosophy) as a means of analysing paired concepts more fully…."
— Daniel Chandler, Semiotics for Beginners.
* Compare Chandler's list of Aristotle's primary oppositions with Aristotle's list (also in the Metaphysics) of Pythagorean oppositions (see Midrash Jazz Quartet).

There are too many things to study and learn for SET Exam. So keep continue your study is a must, taking big gaps is not at all a good idea.
No matter how much time you spend daily, give at least one hour to revision.
Jot down formulas on a separate sheet of paper it will help in quick revision.
Do not skip difficult or new topics completely; learn at least the basics, some objective questions, some basic formulas, some important concepts.
Solve previous year papers; as SET exam do repeat their questions.
Do an analysis of number of questions asked topic wise in previous paper; this will give you an idea on what topic(s) questions are asked most.


We've all been there; a desire to do something different and creative but the ideas just don't come. For me, this is especially true when it comes to home design. Whether you're building a new home, moving to a new home, renovating an older home, or just trying to make your current home more "you," sometimes your mind's canvas simply goes blank. It happens to professionals and amateurs alike. So, where do you go to get your artistic juices flowing once again? We did a little research and found some great websites where you'll find home design inspiration.
you get a brand new start! A new home to live in and to decorate is going to be so much fun!
But, wait. The same old furniture is following you. Before you get too sad, I've got a few good ideas to try to jazz up your new place.


The LEGO brick celebrated its 60th anniversary earlier this year, and the minifigure also gets to celebrate its own special birthday today, it's 40th! This nine piece 'figure' (head, 2 arms, 2 hands, torso, 2 legs and waist) has captured the hearts of many over the years and has come a long way in that time, existing in over 8,000 different varieties.
The LEGO Group have chosen to celebrate the anniversary based on when the first minifigures were launched in 1978. The actual patent was applied for in Denmark on August 29th 1977.
With help from the LEGO Group we've been able to put together this gallery of images and videos showcasing how the LEGO minifigure has changed since its inception, including photographs from inside the factory at Kladno in the Czech Republic, copies of the patent and more.
Also, the LEGO Group have put together this fact sheet looking back at the history of the LEGO minifigure….
They say life begins at 40, and we look forward to the next adventures for the small but mighty LEGO minifigures!

Wilhelm Ludwig von Baumbach (zur Kennzeichnung des Familienstamms auch Wilhelm Ludwig (II.) von Baumbach-Lenderscheid) (* 12. April 1741; † 19. September 1808 in Kassel) war ein deutscher Landrat und Abgeordneter und Abgeordneter aus dem Adelsgeschlecht Baumbach.

Von Baumbach war der Sohn von Wilhelm Ludwig (I.) von Baumbach (1710–1769). Der Vater war  ritterschaftlicher Obereinnehmer und Deputierter bei den Hessen-Kasselischen Landtagen 1753–1755 und 1758. Die Mutter war die Erbin von Sontra, Sabine Friederike von Baumbach (1720–1789). Von Baumbach heiratete Caroline Luise Henriette Wiebrecht (* 17. April 1737; † 10. Januar 1820) aus Zerbst. Einziges Kind war die Tochter Friederike von Baumbach.

Von Baumbach trat in die Verwaltung der Landgrafschaft Hessen-Kassel ein und war von 1776 bis 1786 Landrat des Kurhessischen Stromsbezirks des Fuldastroms und später Landrat in Hanau. Er wurde mit dem Titel eines Geheimen Regierungsrates ausgezeichnet und Vizepräsident, später Präsident der Regierung in Kassel. Er wurde auch mehrfach vom Kurfürsten in diplomatischer Mission eingesetzt. So war er vom 14. März bis zum 11. April 1790 Hessen-Kasselischer Gesandter in besonderer Mission (Investitut des Kurfürsten) in Mainz und vom 21. Juni bis zum 19. Juli 1792 Hessen-Kasselischer Gesandter beim Heiligen Römischen Reich Deutscher Nation (Wahlkonvent). 1802 wurde er Kurhessischer Staats- und Finanzminister. Nach dem Dritten Koalitionskrieg lavierte die Landgrafschaft Hessen-Kassel zwischen Frankreich und dem Reich. Von Baumbach riet eher zu einem Anschluss an Frankreich ("ehender als an Preußen"). Hessen-Kassel trat 1806 dem Rheinbund nicht bei und teilmobilisierte zu Beginn des preußisch-französischen Kriegs 1806 seine Armee, um die Neutralität zu sichern. Daraufhin besetzte Napoleon Kurhessen. Am 1. November 1806 marschierte französisches Militär in Kassel ein. Von Baumbach verhandelte um einen Kredit von drei Millionen Talern und ließ diese den Franzosen als Kontribution aushändigen, um Brandschatzungen zu vermeiden.

Der Kurfürst Wilhelm I. floh rechtzeitig und ging ins Exil, zuerst nach Holstein, wo er im Itzehoer Prinzesshof residierte, und später nach Prag. Er setzte am 3. November 1806 von Baumbach gemeinsam mit dem Minister Friedrich Sigismund Waitz von Eschen, dem Diplomaten Carl Otto von der Malsburg, dem Oberjägermeister Friedrich Ludwig von Witzleben und dem Generalmajor Carl Heinrich von Webern zur "Regentschaft" in Kurhessen ein. Am 5. Dezember 1806 wurde er durch den französischen General Joseph Lagrange als Minister amtsenthoben und als französischer Zivilbeamter vereidigt. Auch danach setzte er im Geheimen die Tätigkeit für den Kurfürsten fort. Sein letzter Bericht an den Kurfürsten datiert vom 26. Juli 1807.

Vom 2. Juni bis zu seinem Tod am 19. September 1808 war er Mitglied der Reichsstände des Königreichs Westphalen für das Departement der Werra und die Wählergruppe der Grundeigentümer.

The VP1 Flowerpot pendant, with its two semi-circular spheres facing each other, has long proved its lasting design quality and is just as much a synonym of our time. The diameter of the upper sphere is twice as large as the lower one, making a perfectly balanced form.
In 1968 the students' revolts in Paris, Rome and the United States were overthrowing stiff, old values, initiating the Flower Power Generation of peace, love and harmony. Same year, Stanley Kubrick pictured the year 2001, featuring the Verner Panton Chair, and man was soon to set foot on the moon. In the world of design, a colorful, playful pendant hung in restaurants and exhibitions, and very soon in everybody's homes. This was the VP1 Flowerpot pendant.

Reasons why you need a File Management System.
Gone are the days when people used to keep files and documents, both personal and for business use as hard copies, due the inconvenience that comes with that. This is because anything can happen, and there are documents personal and office documents that are too important to loose. File management is the digital way to keep track and organize your files. As long as you have the right system, there are a number of benefits that you will be enjoying.
Among the many things that you will be getting from this is convenience. When the files are stored digitally, this means that you will be able to access them from wherever you are, for the simple fact that they are digital. It also means that a number of people will be able to work on some particular file at the same time, and this is really convenient. The searching and retrieving of the documents and the files is also easy when they are digitally stored. With the file management systems, you will also be able to have a paperless office and this means more space.
With the right technology, they are also very easy to operate. All you need is a scanner and a computer to upload and you will be good to go. You will only edit once, something that these systems allows you to do, and then everyone that is accessing them will be having an updates file. With a good one, there are additional features like the notification one that reminds you on when to work on some particular file.
There is no feeling quite like the one that you get when you know that the people that are not allowed to access some documents cannot do that, there is no system better than this. This is a feature that you get on almost all the file management systems, restriction features, and this means that you will not have to worry about anything because you and your documents are safe. A software like FileCenter software and the batch OCR software from the Lucion Technology is one is easy to use, easy to install, easy to lean and more importantly, this is something that you pay for once and then you are good to go. This is not only good for your budget, but also good for you and your business because this is one of the areas where time is equivalent to money, making Lucion Technologies the best.


Whitney Ellis Kitchen design ideas, 2018-09-12 03:23:28. Compact appliances. Remember a little further at the top of this article when it was mentioned that being smaller doesn't have to mean you're lesser? Well, appliances are one of the best areas where this compact line of thinking has taken hold. Today's manufacturers try to help you save space, because everyone knows that a kitchen aficionado likes comfort just as much as function.
Tinsley Spears Kitchen design ideas, 2018-09-12 08:05:11. The utensil holder for the kitchen, which is displayed prominently in the corners or on counter tops can be used to establish a theme, complement the existing decor, or be used as a point of interest in the room. Choose the ones with bold and interesting designs to create a dramatic effect and leave your visitors dazzled. They are actually quite inexpensive and easy to change, so you can play around with different kitchen design ideas from time to time.
Braylee Giles Kitchen design ideas, 2018-09-10 16:55:10. Keep it together- make sure that all your kitchen design documents are kept together. Otherwise, at some stage you can guarantee that something you need will go missing at the worst possible time and you'll be turning your house upside down to find it. Receipts, bills and other documentation are all important. Invest in a proper file and at the very least throw everything into it. Even if you don't keep things organised, you'll at least know where to look.

Marion Hugh "Suge" Knight Jr. (), född 19 april 1965 i Compton, Kalifornien, är en amerikansk musikproducent, skivbolagsdirektör och tidigare amerikansk fotbollsspelare. Han är mest känd som medgrundare och tidigare VD för Death Row Records. Skivbolaget blev känt efter medgrundaren Dr. Dres debutalbum The Chronic släppts på bolaget 1992. Efter flera års framgång med artister som Tupac Shakur, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Outlawz och Tha Dogg Pound, trappade skivbolaget ner efter Knight blivit dömd till skyddstillsyn i september 1996 och skivbolaget gick i konkurs 2006.

I februari 2015 blev Knight åtalad för mord och mordförsök efter en hit-and-run i Compton, Kalifornien. Han förnekade alla anklagelser. I september 2018 dömdes Knight till ett 28 år långt fängelsestraff, istället för livstid, efter en uppgörelse med åklagaren.

Darn! I sure wish that I could have recorded my final day. Being on Hawaii time keeps getting me, as I miss the Pacific time window. Either way, I ended the EcoChallenge with a bang, with extensive walking and lots of bus travel around Honolulu, so that I could buy seeds at the University of Hawaii for our community garden, explore a museum, and join my partner after work. It was a lot of fun to feel more confident with the public bus here and know that I can navigate this large city.
Final day of the ecochallenge! Great work everyone. I know that this experience has helped me to commit to developing a more sustainable lifestyle. I find this to be a great tool for change and I'd be happy to take the challenge again. Every day for nearly two weeks I have walked at least 2 more miles than usual; I waste less water; I take more time to enjoy nature--all of these shifts have been helpful individually, but they also affect the world at large. Taking this mindset into consideration more often will help us better understand the true impacts of our decisions.
I'm sad that this is the last day of the eco-challenge!! Some days were tougher than others, but overall I am glad that I was part of it. I will continue to try and do all of my challenges and incorporate them into my every day life. I think what I took away most from this challenge is to Live Simply! We live in a world where we are taught to consume, consume, and consume some more. I realized over these past two weeks that living that way does not truly make me happy. Appreciating the things I do have, eating home cooked meals, and loving my space and the people in it! That's where it is at yo!
Today we ordered from Hood River Organics, a local CSA. So it's official; I've completed all my goals by the end of the challenge! Right now, we are just starting out with one "farmer's box" which should be enough produce for the week. We also get to add on some home-brewed kombucha. Yum! I am so excited for my order to get here. Before the send the box they give you the option to change any contents online, swapping any undesirable fruits or veggies with ones you prefer. It's really neat. This challenge has been so beneficial for me, as I've started to develop a couple good habits and try new things. Hope everyone else found this adventure to be fruitful!
overall i feel i did a decent job staying on top of my challenges, i did change one about half way through the event because i kept failing on completing it, but after wards my daily average points increased. this was a very eye opening experience, i never really payed attention to the little habits i had that played a big role in my Eco foot print. i will definitely remember to keep in mind the level of impact i play to the environment on a daily basis, and how a little change good or bad can have a huge impact.
Day 15: I actually feel as if my effort to exercise more has become encouragement to eat healthier!
I've been paying attention to some of my other challenges like only flushing when necessary and getting more exercise. I've been walking to get groceries which gives me the exercise and saves gas from my impact as well.
Today I went to a vegan place to eat food with a few friends and the place was called Sweet Lemon Vegan Bistro. It was great, I got vegan Rama pad thai with soy curls as my main source of protein and it was super yummy, it tasted just like regular pad thai. Good food doesn't always have to contain meat!
I am still in the process of buying/building my own worm compost to have at home but in the meantime I have been saving compostable scraps in my freezer (to avoid any bad smell) and I plan on taking them to a local community garden to add to their compost. I think this is a nice way to compost for people who do not want to deal with the set up and maintenance of an indoor composting system.

PROC AUTOREG uses the nonlinear optimization (NLO) subsystem to perform nonlinear optimization tasks when the GARCH= option is specified. If the GARCH= option is not specified, the NLOPTIONS statement is ignored. For a list of all the options of the NLOPTIONS statement, see Chapter 6: Nonlinear Optimization Methods.
