Do not miss Towards a Science of Consciousness Helsinki June 8-13
Check the program of the 21st annual international, interdisciplinary conference on the fundamental questions connected with conscious experience.
Full hall immersed in the TSC Plenary talk by academy professor Riitta Hari, Aalto University School of Science on "Social interaction in the core of human brain function" June 9.
Toward a Science of Consciousness (TSC) is the largest and longest-running interdisciplinary conference emphasizing broad and rigorous approaches to the study of conscious awareness. Topical areas include neuroscience, philosophy, psychology, biology, quantum physics, meditation and altered states, machine consciousness, culture and experiential phenomenology. Cutting edge, controversial issues are emphasized. Held annually since 1994, the TSC conferences alternate yearly between Tucson, Arizona and various locations around the world. The University of Helsinki is proud to host TSC 2015 in the Great Hall of its neoclassical main building located in the downtown area.

At the Towards Science of Consciousness, Helsinki, June 9-13, you have a unique possibility to attend, for instance, several presentations by a sparkling mind, Giuseppe Vitiello, professor in theoretical physics in Universita di Salerno, Italia.
Also Pia Tikka talks about "Intersubjectively shared (un)consciousness enacted on cinema screen, Thursday, June 11 • 2:30pm – 4:35pm in a symposium titled "Astronauts and Avatars: Exploring Consciousness through the Art and Science of Embodiment".
TSC conferences continue to bring together various fields approaching the issue of consciousness from different perspectives, orientations and methodologies. These include not only academic subjects within the social and natural sciences, medicine and humanities, but also contemplative and experiential traditions, arts and culture. TSC aims to integrate these disciplines, bridge gaps and pursue relevant details in the spirit of a genuine dialogue.
See you Thursday June 11, 2015 2:30pm – 4:35pm at the Main Building, auditorium IV

A: I would not bother about Ubuntu using half of my RAM, as it is usually used to cache information to be able to access them very fast. So caching as much as possible (e.g. from your hard disk) is the best Ubuntu can do, as long as there is this much space left for other applications and no need to use the swap.
But if you are interested in which processes are occupying the memory, try top or htop which should give you an output similar to the windows task manager's processes-tab.

I don't know if i will buy it.
The game looks pretty simple witch is what i found appealing with D2, but it also seems a little limited. So like you pat ill have to play the BETA to know.
Kinda sounds a lot like runescape, except now you can actually make money off of it lol.
the somewhat complicated skill trees took like 5 minutes to understand, so i really don't see why those were a problem, especially since they allowed an awesome amount of customization.
either way, runes were a lot more interesting then gold since they inherently had multiple purposes.
but i guess ruining the barter system wasn't enough... runes had to go too... seriously wtf blizzard. runes -> runewords was one of the coolest ideas ive seen in a game. why on earth would you get rid of it?
i don't like the money auction house, but i like it more than the online sites that sell items.
i hope that the premium to list any item in the money house will allow the ingame one to actually work at all.
does this sound like this is an exact mashup of diablo 2 and WoW to anyone else?
If it's supported for mac ill play, if not well I can't hate on them for not supporting mac.
anyways, diablo 3 is doing a open beta over this weekend!
a little different from d2, your first play through can be on normal or hard but you might as well do hard. the level requirement for each area is higher in hard, but the bonus xp from the difficulty puts you exactly on par. advancing into even harder difficulties makes the game waaaay more difficult, but you dont need to be perfectly geared and spec'd the way you did in d2 (except for the harder torments). skill with your abilities as well as which abilities you chose (as in how well they work with eachother / other players abils / against what you're fighting) play a much greater role in your success than your items. think of normal difficulty as "none of you have ever played a game before"

New DNA From a Tooth Confirms Famous Wild Ponies in Maryland Descended From Spanish Shipwreck
August 8, 2022 August 8, 2022 - by tppgorg
Wild feral horses have roamed freely across an island off the coast of Maryland and Virginia for hundreds of years, but exactly how they got there has remained a mystery. Now, in a new study, ancient DNA extracted from a 16th century tooth suggest that the old folk tales claiming that horses were marooned on Assateague following a Spanish shipwreck are likely true.
An abandoned Caribbean colony unearthed centuries after it had been forgotten and a case of mistaken identity with the tooth—long thought to be from a cow—have conspired to rewrite the history of that barrier island 1,000 miles away.
Those seemingly unrelated threads were woven together when Nicolas Delsol, a postdoctoral researcher at the Florida Museum of Natural History, set out to analyze ancient DNA recovered from cow bones found in archaeological sites. Delsol wanted to understand how cattle were domesticated in the Americas, and the genetic information preserved in centuries-old teeth held the answer. But they also held a surprise.
"It was a serendipitous finding," he said. "I was sequencing mitochondrial DNA from fossil cow teeth for my Ph.D. and realized something was very different with one of the specimens when I analyzed the sequences."
The specimen in question, a fragment of an adult molar, wasn't a cow tooth at all but instead once belonged to a horse. According to a study published last week in the journal PLOS ONE, the DNA obtained from the tooth is also the oldest ever sequenced for a domesticated horse from the Americas.
The tooth was excavated from one of Spain's first colonized settlements. Located on the island of Hispaniola, the town of Puerto Real was established in 1507 and served for decades as the last port of call for ships sailing from the Caribbean. But rampant piracy and the rise of illegal trade in the 16th century forced the Spanish to consolidate their power elsewhere on the island, and in 1578, residents were ordered to evacuate Puerto Real.
The remnants of the once-bustling port were inadvertently rediscovered by a medical missionary in 1975 and archaeological excavations of the site led by the Florida Museum were carried out until 1990.
Horse fossils are incredibly rare from the time period, primarily due to the way Spanish colonialists valued their livestock.
"Horses were reserved for individuals of high status, and owning one was a sign of prestige," he said. "There are full-page descriptions of horses in the documents that chronicle the arrival of Cortés in Mexico, demonstrating how important they were to the Spanish."
In contrast, cows were used as a source of meat and leather, and their bones were regularly discarded in communal waste piles called middens. But one community's trash is an archaeologist's treasure, as the refuse from middens often confers the clearest glimpse into what people ate and how they lived.
The specimen's biggest surprise wasn't revealed until Delsol compared its DNA with that of modern horses from around the world. Given that the Spanish brought their horses from the Iberian Peninsula in southern Europe, he expected horses still living in that region would be the closest living relatives of the 500-year-old Puerto Real specimen.
Instead, Delsol found its next of kin over 1,000 miles north of Hispaniola, on the island of Assateague off the coast of Maryland and Virginia. Feral horses have roamed freely across the long stretch of barrier island for hundreds of years, but exactly how they got there has remained a mystery.
According to the National Park Service, which manages the northern half of Assateague, the likeliest explanation is that the horses were brought over in the 1600s by English colonists from the mainland in an attempt to evade livestock taxes and fencing laws. Others believe the feral herds descended from horses that survived the shipwreck of a Spanish galleon and swam to shore—a theory popularized in the 1947 children's novel Misty of Chincoteague. The book was later adapted to film, helping spread the shipwreck legend to an even wider audience.
Until now, there has been little evidence to support either theory. Proponents of the shipwreck theory claim it would be unlikely that English colonists would lose track of valuable livestock, while those in favor of an English origin of the herds point to the lack of sunken vessels nearby and the omission of feral horses in historical records of the region.
The results of the DNA analysis, however, unequivocally point to Spanish explorers as being the source of the horses on Assateague.
The feral herds on Assateague weren't the only horses to revert back to their wild heritage after arriving in the Americas. Colonists from all over Europe brought with them horses of various breeds and pedigrees, some of which bucked their bonds and escaped into the surrounding countryside.
Today, the U.S. Bureau of Land Management estimates there are roughly 86,000 wild horses across the country, most of which are located in western states, such as Nevada and Utah. Delsol hopes that future ancient DNA studies will help decode the complex history of equine introductions and migrations that occurred over the last several centuries and offer a clearer understanding of today's diversity of wild and domesticated horses.

Elly Van Eeghem
(Dis)placed Interventions
In (Dis)placed interventions, Elly Van Eeghem stimulates your imagination with video footage, voice recordings, music, and colourful projections. She collected all this material over the past several years in various neighbourhoods in Ghent, Paris, Berlin and Montreal. Join her on this trip to what a city is and can be – and be amazed, confused and inspired by the spaces that we share with one another.
A small society of well-meaning intellectuals choose a dead-ordinary man, to inspire, manipulate and guide through the political landscape. Step one is to expand democracy. Step two is to lay the resentment and identity fetishism to rest. Like a golem emerging from the silt of Europe's magical subconscious, the decoy crawls forth.
Stefaan Van Brabandt
In this theatre monologue, Bruno Vanden Broecke plays one of the most legendary philosophers in history. A few hours before his death, he reflects on his life and thought. This production demonstrates that 2400 years later, Socrates' contributions to philosophy are still as relevant as ever.
Landscape Orchestra seeks a musical answer to the question of how we can depict departure, travel, and arrival. The production visits the landscapes that we traverse on our way to different and better places. A series of portraits shows people for whom the world is difficult but not necessarily less poetic.
Milo Rau/NTGent
Orestes in Mosul
An apparently endless chain of murders and blood feuds: this is the plot of the Oresteia. In Orestes in Mosul, Milo Rau combines the tragedy of tragedies with contemporary political conflicts. With an international ensemble of Iraqi and European actors – including Johan Leysen – he presents an Oresteia for our time.
tg STAN
Damiaan De Schrijver, Bert Haelvoet and Matthias de Koning are moving into the medium of film. Where do film and theatre coalesce? Where do they clash and where do they enhance one another? Their exploration of these questions is based on a variety of source material, such as the interviews that Alfred Hitchcock gave to the likes of François Truffaut and Jean-Luc Godard.
#1 (0-12 years)
On Sunday afternoon 20/10, we organize free workshops for children aged 4-12. The very youngest kids (0>4) can play at the crèche, while you can relax and enjoy a show.
#matineekadee
de KOE & mugmetdegoudentand
seks(e)(n)
In 1809, Goethe wrote Die Wahlverwandtschaften. He places four characters on a country estate, and observes their reactions. De KOE and Lineke Rijxman have now written a new Wahlverwandtschaften. How will the two couples fare, now that we can no longer blame nature for our whims and desires? Will it be as catastrophic? Or even more catastrophic?
In 1994, Jan Decorte wrote his inimitable theatre script Bloetwollefduivel: a jet-black abstraction of the ultimate play about evil: Shakespeare's Macbeth. body a.k.a. starts from this iconic text but seeks to ward off evil and to turn the downwards spiral into an ecstatic high. Jan Decorte, Sigrid Vinks, Benny Claessens and Lisah Adeaga engage in the battle body and soul.
Stefaan Van Brabandt/De Verwondering & Johan Heldenbergh
Stefaan Van Brabandt & Johan Heldenbergh
Johan Heldenbergh-as-Marx reflects on an eventful life and body of thought. Where did he make mistakes? And where has he been proved right? Can his philosophy still be relevant and liberating? In times of uncertainty and growing inequality, Marx aims to be a confrontational, critical, and impassioned plea for freedom and human dignity.
Louis Janssens & Timo Sterckx
The Greatest Show on Earth
Louis Janssens and Timo Sterckx used the book Europeana, a Brief History of the Twentieth Century by Patrik Ourednik to make a production about history, about graduating, about beginning. It might be a very long story.
All the good
All the Good is a story with a double autobiographical background: on the one hand, the life of Israeli elite soldier and war veteran Elik Niv, and on the other, Jan Lauwers' life with Grace Ellen Barkey and their children – in a house and workspace in Molenbeek. It is love story in an age in which Europe is throwing its values to the wind and a growing group of people is being seduced by hate and intolerance.
Mélancolie aux 5 blocs
A stone's throw from the Kaaistudios, there is a row of dilapidated and unhealthy social housing blocks that will soon be demolished: these are the five blocks of the Rempart des Moines. The current residents have to make way for more affluent buyers. The Brussels Brecht-Eisler Choir is presenting a musical theatre piece that attempts to capture and evoke their confusion and uncertainty.
E. Dietvorst, A. Di Marino & D. Roofthooft
In MEMENTO MORI!, documentary filmmaker and visual artist Els Dietvorst brings two solos together. The first is performed by Dirk Roofthooft, one of Flanders' most iconic actors, the second by the Brussels-based actress Aurelie Di Marino. The first monologue mirrors the second. As a diptych, they reflect on themes such as individualism, globalization and migration, as well as the alienation and disenchanted world to which they lead.
Suze Milius/House Crying Yellow Tears
Suze Milius
The first talk shows aired in the 1950s and they have determined the evening rhythm in many living rooms ever since. But the invention of the internet has definitively pushed the format into decline. In TALK SHOW, Suze Milius bids them farewell. It is both a retrospective and a look ahead into the future, an attempt to ascribe value to everything that gradually disappears, and an ode to the details of our existence.
On five Sunday afternoons, we are organizing exciting workshops for children aged 4-12. The very youngest kids (0>4) can play at the crèche, while you can relax and enjoy a show.
tg STAN & Kloppend Hert
Move (on)
In their search for Arabic literature, tg STAN sought and found allies at the Nomadic Arts Centre Moussem, and among the theatremakers of Kloppend Hert, the company led by Haider Al Timimi. Eight performers go in search of answers to questions that are essential to them, in a cross-border space where multiple influences can blend into one whole. But it begins at the beginning: an open forum and conversation.
Khadija El Kharraz Alami / Productiehuis Theater Rotterdam
Nu ben ik Medea
In this personal performance, Khadija El Kharraz Alami blends perspectives from Euripides' Medea with her own story about growing up between both the Western and the Moroccan world – and about the clash of forces within the self.
Faustin Linyekula/NTGent
Histoire(s) du théâtre II
theatre dance
1974, Zaire. In the Fight of the Century, Muhammad Ali defeated George Foreman. Mobutu Sese Seko founded the National Ballet of Zaire. Fast forward to 2019. Faustin Linyekula has created a production in which he reflects on key moments in the history of theatre. Along with three members of the Congolese National Ballet and actors Papy Maurice Mbwiti and Oscar van Rompay, he explores what the young Congolese state could have become.


Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides a noninvasive way to measure iron levels in the brains of people with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), according to a study being presented today at the annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA). Researchers said the method could help physicians and parents make better informed decisions about medication.
Dr. Adisetiyo and colleagues explored this possibility by measuring brain iron in 22 children and adolescents with ADHD and 27 healthy control children and adolescents using an MRI technique called magnetic field correlation (MFC) imaging. The technique is relatively new, having been introduced in 2006 by study co-authors and faculty members Joseph A. Helpern, Ph.D., and Jens H. Jensen, Ph.D.
MFC imaging's ability to noninvasively detect the low iron levels may help improve ADHD diagnosis and guide optimal treatment. Noninvasive methods are particularly important in a pediatric population, Dr. Adisetiyo noted.
"This method enables us to exploit inherent biomarkers in the body and indirectly measure dopamine levels without needing any contrast agent," she said.

Today's commercial landscape is increasingly competitive. Many organisations are using technology to keep up.
Businesses need to tighten up their processes and be as efficient and effective as possible. They're looking to technology to help achieve this goal. In doing so, they're realising the benefits of streamlined processes that connect various areas of an organisation.
This is a common issue that organisations face: Data that isn't centralised, meaning systems don't work in sync. Disconnected systems, manual processes and multiple customer touchpoints make efficient management challenging.
You can use technology to streamline many factors in a business. But with technology changing constantly, it's a chore to keep up and adapt accordingly. You need technology that you can trust to be flexible and work with new systems as they emerge.
So, how do you solve this situation?
The solution to these operational management problems is to implement a proven technology solution like Microsoft Dynamics 365 that connects multiple functions of your business into one and streamlines your business processes.
Dynamics 365 works by connecting and streamlining areas like sales, customer service, finance and operations, project service automation, marketing and customer insights. You can start with the features you need most, connect existing apps, integrate artificial intelligence, and only add more functions as needed.
From marketing and lead nurturing to sales closing and post-sales activities, Dynamics 365 streamlines the whole process so that you can earn customers for life.
Data collected is centralised in a single interface by integrating various apps, cloud services and external sources. The sources include email marketing, web pages, surveys, accounting databases and more.
Manual tasks will be replaced by automated processes that flow through from the beginning of the customer acquisition process. In every step of the business process, data will be integrated and processed for efficiency in the steps that follow.
Eliminate the high cost of manual inputs and other analogue business processes. Dynamics 365 provides a cost-effective business environment that is easily adaptable to changing requirements.
As a cloud-based service, Dynamics 365 can be reachable anywhere at any time via the Internet. This allows for remote and distributed teams to work efficiently worldwide, and gives you the ability to access the information you need, wherever you need it.
Dynamics 365 comes with native integration with Power BI and Microsoft Office 365, which includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Publisher, Access and OneNote.
Dynamics 365 is designed for compatibility and integration with your favourite business apps that manage accounting databases, email marketing, surveys and more.
Real-time reporting across various key performance indicators with Power BI dashboards and visualisations provides in-depth data-driven insights powered by Microsoft artificial intelligence.
Dynamics 365 can be easily adapted and scaled to any business or industry to manage internal and external relationships and processes. This includes marketing, sales, customer service, project service, finance, operations, customer insights and talent management.
Your data is safe with the experienced Microsoft team, using data encryption and Transport Layer Security (TLS). They are committed to constantly reviewing their security practices to be relevant. This means your data is always protected by the most up-to-date solution.
Ready to find a partner who can accelerate your business with Dynamics 365? Discover how Datacom's industry leading team can help you.


Overview: Go to a Great Homeschool Convention to find out more about homeschooling high school. There will be learning opportunities for both teens AND parents! Note: This post is sponsored by GHC, but all opinions are my own.
Didja ever decide to go to a movie, and then when you looked at what was playing, nothing sounded good?
Or at a restaurant, when you FINALLY have a chance to eat out, they have run out of the one thing you wanted. So disappointing!
Sometimes you go to all the effort to get yourself to a homeschool conference, but then none of the speakers are talking about anything you're interested in or don't already know. Ya know?
This is especially true when you're ready to homeschool high school. Many homeschool conferences seem to be lacking in resources for those who want to learn more about homeschooling their teen.
Often there are sessions about taking the ACT and SAT, or building an attractive transcript — and those are important; don't get me wrong — but they are the end game. They're not topics you need to know about when you're still trying to figure out what to do for 9th grade, hello.
Well, I think that's about to change. I think the Great Homeschool Conventions people are beginning to see the importance of meeting the needs of parents with kids about to start high school — or already in it.
One thing that is happening this year at ALL GHC conventions is their Real Faith for the Real World Teen Track. This is a series of sessions JUST FOR TEENS, all about things they need to be solidifying in their hearts and minds as they prepare to head out into the real world.
What parent doesn't want their teen to be exposed to great Biblical truths — from someone else? We all know that we can talk 'til we're blue in the face about these things, and our teens may or may not decide that we're worth listening to. But when another adult says the exact same things, our teens are all ears and excited to hear more.
Your teen will be challenged, inspired, and come away with a new sense of their faith and how it applies to life. This is a good thing!
Gary Bates is the CEO of Creation Ministries International and is highly qualified to speak on the topic of evolution vs. creation. Teens LOVE this topic, don't they?
Dr. Jeff Myers is the President of Summit Ministries. They offer a REALLY GOOD worldview curriculum for seniors. One of my daughters took it and loved it so much that she wanted to take the books with her to college!
Jean Burk is the creator of the College Prep Genius curriculum, which helps teens prepare to take the SAT. I've spoken with her, and she is a vibrant, energetic individual, sure to keep the attention of anyone, even a "been there done that" teen.
Dr. Jay Wile is the author of the original Apologia high school science textbooks. Those books are written to the student in a way they can understand, and my kids have always really enjoyed them.
And there are many more, all of whom will be wonderful for your teens to glean insight from. It should be a growing experience! And maybe you could count it for some credit! Woot!
Well, the answer is YES, YOU DO. And this is the part that I am super excited about!
Jean Burk, mentioned above, has several sessions about homeschooling high school, not just about preparing for the SAT but also about transcripts, scholarships, and even a session called High School 101 that covers many of the questions I know you might have right now.
Another high school speaker is Janice Campbell. I met her at the GHC I attended last year, and she felt like a kindred spirit. She (along with Jean) will be at EVERY convention that GHC is doing in 2019. She has a session about high school in general, and also about teaching literature to teens (always a needed topic, am I right?).
Then there is also my fun friend Mr. D (Dennis DiNoia)! He will be speaking about teaching your kids to become self-directed learners, which is something I highly recommend for high school. He also has sessions about taking the SAT and making test scores soar — and with his fun humor and practical ideas, I know you'll feel encouraged.
Then there will be another speaker at the Ohio conference only, and this speaker is one I happen to be particularly fond of — it's ME!! 🙂 🙂 I will be doing three sessions there. One is about the common fears that people have about homeschooling high school, another is about the nuts and bolts of homeschooling high school (the how-to's of just about everything from soup to nuts!), and the third is about how to prepare for high school when your kids are still in middle and elementary school.
So make tracks for the Great Homeschool Convention that is closest to your home. You'll see that there is much for both teens and their parents to absorb about these crazy high school years!
