PCMag UK Reviews Consumer Electronics Wearables
Samsung Gear Live Review
The Samsung Gear Live puts Google Now on your wrist with Android Wear, but we're still waiting for the first must-have smartwatch.
byAlex Colon Jul 09, 2014
Nifty Google Now functionality.
Heart-rate monitor.
Works with standard watchbands.
Short battery life.
Few apps available.
Bulky.
Android Wear lacks a Back button.
Not a particularly comfortable fit.
Maybe the smartwatch is just not going to happen. Android Wear, Google's brand new OS for wearables, seems like the best shot so far. And yet, after testing the Samsung Gear Live and the LG G Watch , I don't see either device as a must-have accessory. That said, the $199 Gear Live is the better of the two. It has a heart rate sensor and a sharper screen than the G Watch, and is $30 less expensive as well. It does a nice job of bringing smartphone notifications to your wrist, and if you swear by Google Now you'll be pleased. That said, I'm still counting on the Moto 360 or a wearable device from Apple to make a bigger splash.
Compatibility, Design, and Display
The versions of Android Wear on the LG G Watch and Samsung Gear Live are virtually identical, so we're sharing a lot of material between our reviews. Although it's open to many more people than the Samsung-only Gear 2 , the Gear Live still requires a companion smartphone to use it. In general, Android Wear only works with devices running Android 4.3 (Jelly Bean) or higher. You need to download the Android Wear app from Google Play in order to connect the watch to your phone. For this review, I tested the Gear Live with a Samsung Galaxy S5.
If you've seen any of Samsung's other recent smartwatch offerings, the design of the Gear Live should look pretty familiar. In fact, you might be hard pressed to tell the difference between the Gear Live and the recent Gear 2 (as you can see in the image below). The Gear Live measures 1.49 by 2.22 by 0.35 inches (HWD) and weighs 1.97 ounces, which makes it a little lighter than the Gear 2, but it still feels big and bulky on the wrist. The watch comes in black, with a silver design around the face and a single physical button on the right that triggers the display. This is a big improvement over the LG G Watch, which lacks a button and can be a pain to turn on. The watch is IP 67 rated for dust and water resistance, so it can safely be immersed in water up to three feet deep.
The strap features a dual-prong clasp that never felt truly secure. On top of that, the watch either felt too tight or too loose—I was never able to get a comfortable fit. Thankfully, you can swap the included rubber strap out for any 22mm (0.87-inch) band of your choosing. A standard leather or fabric band will not only make the watch more comfortable to wear, but also gives you the option for something a bit more stylish. That said, the face of the watch is big, and sure to draw attention no matter the strap you use.
Hardware and Battery Life
The Gear Live is powered by a 1.2GHz processor (Samsung doesn't specify what kind, though a recent teardown shows it's a Qualcomm Snapdragon 400, same as the G Watch) and 512MB RAM, along with 4GB of internal storage. It feels faster than the Gear 2, and just about identical to the G Watch, which mostly shares the same specs.
The most notable difference between the two watches is that the Gear Live has a 1.63-inch, 320-by-320-pixel Super AMOLED display, as opposed to the 1.65-inch, 280-by-280-pixel LCD on the G Watch. That AMOLED screen make the Gear Live a bit more vibrant, but the higher resolution makes text and icons smaller, which, on an already-tiny screen, can make it difficult to press the right thing if you have large fingers. I found it difficult to swipe my way around the interface, and would often trigger the function above or below what I actually wanted to do. This wouldn't be a big deal if it were easier to go back a step, but navigating Android Wear isn't particularly intuitive (more on this later).
The watch connects to your phone via Bluetooth 4.0 and features an accelerometer, compass, gyroscope, and a heart rate monitor. The heart rate monitor is another improvement over the G Watch, which doesn't have one at all. It only works when you trigger it, but it's useful if you plan to use the watch as a fitness tool. It uses an optical sensor to measure the flow of blood through your veins and takes about 10 seconds to get a reading.
Perhaps my biggest issue with the Gear Live (and the G Watch, for that matter) is battery life. With regular usage, the 300mAh battery in the Gear Live only has about a day's worth of life in it. You'll definitely be able to make it through a full day, but you'll need to charge it every night. I've worn my Timex Weekender for over five years now, and I haven't replaced the battery once, so having to charge a watch every night is a deal breaker for me.
To add insult to injury, in order to charge the Gear Live, you need to snap it into a cradle that hooks onto the back of the watch. It's the same for Samsung's other watches, and it's really annoying. It would be so much easier to plug the micro USB charging cable directly into the face of the watch itself, rather than attempting to fumble around with the cradle every time you need a charge.
On the positive side, the Gear Live has an always-on screen, like the Pebble ($84.95 at Amazon) , so at least you'll always be able to tell the time. It turns monochrome and dims after just a few seconds of inactivity, but it's still nice to have the time close at hand, like a traditional watch. You can set the display to turn off instead, which will save you some battery life, but in my opinion, a watch should always tell the time. You can press the button on the side of the watch to wake it up, or you can simply hold it up to your face, though this doesn't work as well as it does on the Gear 2. I raised the Gear Live up to my field of view a number of times without anything happening.
Pairing and User Interface
To start using the Gear Live, you'll need to activate Bluetooth on your compatible phone and download the Android Wear app from Google Play. Once installed, you can simply follow the prompts on the watch and app to complete the pairing process.
The Gear Live is one of the first devices to run Android Wear, which is markedly different than the Tizen OS on the Gear 2 or the modified version of Android on the original Galaxy Gear. In essence, Android Wear is about putting smartphone notifications and Google Now functionality on your wrist, and I'll get to how that works shortly. First, you need to figure out how to navigate your way around the Android Wear interface, which unfortunately, isn't very simple to do.
Android Wear, Apps, and Conclusions
You're shown a usage tutorial after first pairing the watch, but once that's over, it quickly becomes apparent Android Wear isn't that easy to use. The home screen itself shows the date and time, and from there you have two options: Swiping down will show you battery life and mute or unmute the watch, while tapping anywhere on the screen (or saying "OK Google") will bring you to the main menu, which is really just a vertical list of commands.
I found the lack of a back button extremely frustrating. Once you've chosen a function, like the pedometer, the only way to close it is to swipe right across the screen. But this won't bring you back to the previous menu; instead, it will bring you to the home screen, which, generally speaking, is a place you never need to go since all it does is tell you the time. So if you start the Stopwatch and want to go back to the main menu, it requires two actions instead of one, which gets old quickly.
Thankfully, you won't have to do quite as much tapping as long as you don't mind talking to your watch. Android Wear features excellent voice recognition, so instead of tapping from the home screen, you can just say "OK Google" to access the main menu. From there, you can simply say something like "show me my steps" rather than scrolling through the list and tapping on it. Voice commands worked almost flawlessly, though I never got over the embarrassment of talking to my wrist in public.
Android Wear and Apps
Once you've figured out how to navigate your way around the watch, the positive (and negative) aspects of Android Wear start to come to light. I was actually a bit surprised at just how little there is going on right out of the box. From the main menu, you're given to option to check your steps, heart rate, and calendar, or set an alarm, reminder, timer, or stopwatch. You can also dictate a text message or email, or ask for directions.
In addition to these commands, Android Wear is also capable of bringing a wide variety of phone notifications to your wrist. At first I thought it would be a good idea to receive notifications for everything—like emails, texts, and apps—but quickly learned that leads to a vibration on your wrist once every few minutes. Luckily, the Android Wear companion app on your phone allows you to pick and choose what you receive notifications for. While it was useful to receive notifications for text messages, I found that I didn't need to see notifications for any of my apps. Your choice of notifications might vary from mine, but in general, I used the Gear Live to receive the same notifications I get on my phone.
The Android Wear app on your phone also allows you to control a number of features you can't modify on the watch itself, like which app is used to control a specific action. For instance, you can choose to view your heart rate with one of two different apps. That doesn't make a huge difference, but I can see it being useful in the future. To call a car right now you can use Lyft, which is the only app available to do so. But if another service like Uber becomes available, it'll be nice to switch between the two or choose the one you prefer.
Speaking of apps, the Android Wear app store is currently home to 30 apps in addition to a few that come preloaded on the watch, like Google Hangouts and Google Maps. That number of apps pales in comparison with Pebble, which had nearly 250 apps available when we last checked in February, but luckily, some of the apps here add some genuine utility.
As previously mentioned, Lyft lets you hail a cab without needing to reach for your phone. And Hue Control is a nifty way to control any Philips Hue lighting in your home. Eat24 allows you to order takeout, while Pinterest will send notifications to you when you're within range of a place that you've pinned. Perhaps the most useful app is If This Then That (IFTTT), which allows you to program a watch button to perform the action of your choice, like tapping the watch to automatically get an email with a map of where you are. Other apps aren't quite as handy, such as a World Cup news tracker or an app that shows nearby apartment listings.
It's a mixed bag, but I suspect Google will have more luck attracting developers to Android Wear than Samsung has to Tizen, though that remains to be seen. For now, while some of the apps available are useful, they aren't reason enough to pick up the Gear Live.
For some people, though, Google Now might be enough to elevate Android Wear above the competition. Google Now essentially delivers context-aware information to you automatically, so you might go to check the time before you leave for work, only to see a Google Now card that tells you how long it will take to get there in current traffic conditions. There were also times that I searched for an address through Google Maps on my computer, only to find an option for directions appear the next time I checked my watch. These were two of the moments that Android Wear genuinely impressed me, so if you're a fan of Google Now, you might be able to find enough here to make it worth your while.
Just don't forget that you'll need to have your phone connected and within range of the watch in order to access most of its functionality, since most actions require a network connection. Without a connected phone you can access some functions offline, like the stopwatch, and the watch will continue to count your steps through a built-in pedometer. But I wouldn't buy the Gear Live in place of an activity tracker just yet. Google Fit promises to bring an enhanced platform for health trackers in the future, but it isn't in place right now. So what you get it some rudimentary step counting on the Gear Live, as well as the run tracking if you download Runtastic.
We were really enthusiastic about smartwatches last year, and were a bit generous with our ratings as a result. But now it's put up or shut up time. Back when I reviewed the Gear 2, I said that your best bet would be to wait for the first wave of Android Wear devices to appear. Now that they're here, I still wouldn't recommend you buy the Gear 2, but I can't say that you should get the Gear Live instead. I'm giving the Gear Live the same rating I gave the Gear 2, even though the Gear Live is a slightly better choice, thanks to the long-range possibilities of Android Wear. That said, I expected more from Android Wear, and have rated the Gear Live accordingly.
Right now, I would still put my money on the Pebble or the Pebble Steel ( at Amazon) , which last longer, offer a wider range of compatibility, and a more robust app selection than the Gear Live. It'll be interesting to see how the forthcoming Moto 360 differs from the Gear Live, but if the modifications are in looks alone, you still might want to wait for Android Wear 2.0 before buying in.

Q: How to generate a word search grid that enables words using the same letter I'm trying to make a word-search grid with a list of given words.
My problem is that some of the words don't appear properly.
I have updated the code, see below
I have tried to fix the previous error and now I am getting an out of range error that i cant fix, if anyone can help I would appreciate
Note 1: I didnt include all the program functions, if required I will include them later
The program takes in a text file like this:

9 9
white
black
blue
green
pink
yellow
red
grey
purple

where the first 2 numbers in the file are the dimensions of the grid, and the rest is the words to place in the grid.
import random
import string
fi=input('Insert the entry file name(entry.txt): ')
fo=input('Insert the exit file name(.txt): ')
grid_size=[]
words=[]
matrix=[]

def read_file(storage):
    file=open(storage)

    n=file.readline()
    lista=n.split()
    lista=list(map(int,lista))  #sets the size of the grid
    for i in lista:
        grid_size.append(i)

    for line in file:
        line=line.replace("\n","")
        words.append(line)
    file.close()

def grid_generator(grid_size):
    n, p = grid_size
    for i in range(n):
        matriz.append([])
        for j in range(p):
            matriz[i].append(".")

def sets_word_inside(grid_size, word, grid):
      n, p = grid_size
      word = random.choice([word,word[::-1]])
                #horizontal,vertical,diagonal
      d = random.choice([[1,0],[0,1],[1,1]])

      xsize = n  if d[0] == 0 else n  - len(word)
      ysize = p if d[1] == 0 else p - len(word)

      x= random.randrange(0,xsize)
      y= random.randrange(0,ytsize)  #position

      for i, letter in enumerate(word):
           char = grid[y+d[1]*i][x+d[0]*i]
           if char != " " and char != letter:
               # If it reaches an already filled space - restart the            process.
               # The second condition allow the words that cross with repeated words are created.

               return False
           grid[y+d[1]*i][x+d[0]*i] = letter[i]
      return True

For now the output of the code is something like this:
9
white
black
blue
green
pink
yellow
red
grey
purple
p w b i t y l d i
p v w o l e e y t
x g a x j r i m g
q i c j b g j e x
s s k g q l g r r
p i n k i o u t r
e l p r u p g e o
l a b l s r p g y
c o r y e u f r x

A: I see two basic problems: you overwrite existing words with new ones, and you write beyond the end of the actual word.
The first problem is that you haven't bothered to look for prior words before you add new ones.
The second problem is because you fail to strip white-space out of the input.
I added some simple debugging instrumentation to track this.  First, I initialised the grid to dots instead of letters, so I could see what's going on:
for j in range(p):
    matrix[i].append(".")

Then, I printed the matrix after adding each word:
for i in range(0,len(word)):
    grid[y+d[1]*i][x+d[0]*i]=word[i]

print "\nUpdated grid with\t", word, "\n",
for row in range(n):
    print " ".join(matrix[row])

return grid

Then I ran it and got this output:
Updated grid with   white

. . . . . . g   .
. . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . .

You see what's happening: you write too far, and you crash over existing entries.
SOLUTION
I recommend that you follow what I've done so far: initialize to some non-letter that you find easy to read.  Now, before you enter a word into the grid check that the path is clear.  Even better, allow for writing across previous words if the intersecting letters match.
After you've placed all the words from the list, then fill in the rest of the grid.

London – Theaster Gates: "Freedom of Assembly" at White Cube Gallery Through July 5th, 2015
Theaster Gates, White Sky, overcast (2014), All Images Courtesy White Cube Gallery
Now through July 5, the White Cube Gallery in Bermondsey presents an exhibition of new work by Theaster Gates, the installation artist and professor of visual art at the University of Chicago who draws from themes of individual and collective history, place and self, and empowerment in his work. Freedom of Assembly continues and expands upon the artist's approach to art as a vehicle for social-justice, communication, and critique.
Theaster Gates, Freedom of Assembly (Installation View)
Taking its title from the First Amendment of the United States' Constitution, the show references and riffs on the potential for autonomy, freedom, and collective action at a national and global scale. New pieces include a series of large-scale tar paintings, sculptures, and clay figures, the composition of which stems from repurposed or reassembled materials taken from familiar establishments or found in and around the artist's own neighborhood in the South Side of Chicago. Material from a closed-down hardware store that served as a community cornerstone is used in the composition of a series of wood vitrines, for example, and the lacquered wood of a high school gymnasium floor appears re-assembled in the series Ground Rules.
One of the more successful series of works in this exhibition carries a particularly charged political and aesthetic impact: a series of large-scale tar paintings and tar-covered objects produced over the past year, suggestive of the personal and collective stakes of this work and the artist's investment in exposing the current conditions and obscured history of Black America, especially in his native Chicago. These tar paintings present an unrelenting but contained force, neatly held within the frame of the canvas, while casting a reflection off of the polished floor of the gallery. The clay objects and tar-covered figures (such as Tarred Vessel, 2015) included in the exhibition evoke the same sense of burden or heaviness, evoking the frustrated social stagnation of race and class relations in the United States.
Tarred Vessel (2015)
In constructing these objects, Gates engages with the formal procedures of roofing, working with tar, rubber, and wooden tiles, incorporating his own personal history (his father was a roofer) while linking to a more collective community engagement through his art production, prompting reflection on the relationship between labor and art and the institutions or spaces that delineate the boundaries of each. White Sky, overcast (2014), conversely, reads as an overwhelming mass of visual information, while channeling the effect of the unrelentingly individual experience of both producing and engaging with a piece of art.
The use of repurposed material from abandoned or local spaces, especially ones intimately known and often no longer in existence, forms an interesting dialogue with the repeating motif of the empty vessel, seen in Gates' clay productions. This exhibition plays on themes of loss and inheritance, as well as beauty in excess or the aesthetic potential in a multitude of material.
Ground Rules (Scrimmage) (2015)
Freedom of Assembly resonates as a comprehensive establishment of the relationship between Gates' ideological and aesthetic interests. The works in this exhibition reflect an expert arrangement of work that subtly and forcefully to communicates the power of the ideals of autonomy, freedom, and community.

Avocados From Mexico wants guaranteed digital audience reach
March 4, 2019 by Tim Peterson
After finding that a majority of its digital ads were not reaching its target audience of women between the ages of 24 and 55, Avocados From Mexico is pushing for digital ad sellers to guarantee its ads hit the mark 70 percent of the time, as measured by Nielsen. But that can be costly to ensure.
Last year, Avocados From Mexico began asking publishers and digital ad platforms to guarantee that at least 40 percent of its digital ads would reach its target audience after the food company saw that only 20-30 percent of its ads were being shown to that audience segment. This year, the marketer is trying to raise its minimum on-target delivery threshold to 70 percent, said Ivonne Kinser, head of digital marketing at Avocados From Mexico.
However, there's a price to pay for improved accuracy in digital advertising. While publishers and platforms are able to guarantee that the ads reach their target audience — with Nielsen checking that they do — they demand more money in exchange. While Kinser declined to say exactly how much more digital ad sellers charge the brand for the guaranteed on-target delivery, "it's a lot," she said. "If it weren't that much, we would go with 100 percent [guaranteed delivery] at once."
"Not everybody can guarantee 100 percent [on-target delivery] and still be competitive. Marketers today in the digital space have to really get savvy in tweaking those media strategies," Kinser said.
Avocados From Mexico's attempt to cut the fat in its digital ad spending has led to some shifts in where it spends its ad dollars online. Facebook has been able to deliver the brand's ads to its target audience 96 percent of the time, said Kinser. "They're the best by far, so we may cut other platforms in order to move more money to Facebook," she said.
Conversely, native ads, such as the sponsored placements in content recommendation widgets appearing beneath publishers' articles, do not hit the mark often enough. "We had to reduce native," said Kinser. Avocados From Mexico continues to buy native ads, but it's had to come up with ways to spread around its native ad investment to improve the accuracy of its ad delivery. "Let's say a campaign has six different partners. We calculate the weight of each partner [based on their on-target delivery] so that when we calculate them together that should give us 70 percent on-target delivery," she said.
Avocados From Mexico continues to invest in native advertising because, while the ads may not deliver the brand's target audience, they do deliver a good amount of traffic to its site. "The click-through rate of native is second to none when it's well done," Kinser said. So Avocados From Mexico tries to offset any off-target native impressions with impressions from publishers and platforms that have first-party data. The brand has found that those publishers and platforms are able to most accurately deliver ads to its target audience.
"Facebook helps a lot because it's always over 90 percent. So we throw in Facebook and balance partners like native that are good traffic drivers but have a lot of spillovers" by bringing in off-target audiences, Kinser said.
Avocados From Mexico isn't worried about guaranteeing in-target delivery for everywhere it advertises online. Search advertising, for example, is not part of the guarantee push "because even if someone is not in the target, [by searching for a relevant term and clicking on the brand's search ad] they are ready to take action with a product or service, so we want to be there," said Kinser.
However, Avocados From Mexico doesn't have the budget to always have its ads show up when people search for relevant terms, said Kinser. So the brand has started to test out how it can make sure its ads appear at the right times, like immediately after its commercial aired during this year's Super Bowl. The brand hired ad tech firm Advocado to tweak its search ads to reach anyone who may have seen its Super Bowl ad during the game's telecast and searched for relevant terms within two minutes of the ad's airing. "If we can at least own [those search results] during that micro-moment when our spot is out, then that is worth it," she said.
Advocado's technology tags TV ads with a watermark in order to know when their air. Then it plugs into Google's search advertising platform to find out how much it costs to be the top ad placement on search results pages for queries that incorporate hundreds of relevant keywords. With that information in hand, Advocado then places bids to buy out that inventory for the two minutes after the TV ad aired.
According to Advocado CEO Brian Handrigan, 52 percent of traffic to Avocados From Mexico's site following the Super Bowl ad's airing "can be explicitly tied to the keywords we pumped up during those two minutes."

Eight Democratic Candidates That Are Embarrassing Their Party and What the Networks Aren't Telling You About Them
October 29th, 2014 10:27 AM
Despite a plethora of Democratic candidates this year who have embarrassed their party – from Wendy Davis attacking her opponent's disability to Kentucky Democratic Senate candidate Alison Grimes refusing to say if she voted for the President to Nikki Haley's Democratic male opponent calling her a whore – the Big Three (ABC, CBS, NBC) networks have been almost silent in airing these stories on their evening and morning shows.
This is a far cry from past elections in which the networks were all too ready to use the embarrassments and scandals of Mark Foley, Larry Craig, Todd Akin to whack the entire Republican party.
The following is a list of 2014 Democratic candidates whose stumbles, gaffes and scandals have been, for the most part, covered up by the Big Three network evening and morning news shows (ABC's World News and Good Morning America; CBS Evening News and CBS This Morning; NBC Nightly News and Today):
Wendy's Woes
Texas Democratic gubernatorial candidate Wendy Davis became a media darling when she staged a filibuster for abortion but lately she's been embarrassing herself and party with inept attacks against her Republican opponent in the Texas gubernatorial race.
On October 20 she implied Texas Republican Attorney General Gregory Abbott was against interracial marriage - even though Abbott's wife, Cecilia, is a Latina. If Abbott were to be elected she would become the first Latina first lady of Texas. So far no network has aired a single second on this Davis attack.
Before that incident the Davis campaign ran a controversial ad depicting her disabled opponent as a hypocrite for supposedly not caring about the disabled. Despite even MSNBC liberals slamming the ad there hasn't been an outcry from the networks. NBC's Today show, on October 14, provided the only story on the wheelchair ad.

It's Only a War on Women if the Woman Attacked is a Democrat
On October 24, the Washington Free Beacon played a clip of South Carolina Democrat and 2014 gubernatorial candidate Vincent Sheheen calling Republican Governor Nikki Haley a "whore." According to WFB: "South Carolina Democrat and 2014 gubernatorial candidate Vincent Sheheen called Republican Governor Nikki Haley a 'whore' with a smile, some laughs, and finger-pointing during an event in Florence, S.C., on Thursday.'That is the worst kind of politics, and we're gonna escort whore out the door,' Sheheen said. 'We're gonna escort her out the door.' Sheheen quickly corrected himself, but began cackling after members of the crowd began laughing. He scanned the crowd for approval and apparently found some."
Sheheen eventually apologized, on October 27, for what could be interpreted as a slip of the tongue. But so far the incident has yet to be reported on any of the Big Three networks, even with the likes of Ann Romney condemning Sheheen. The wife of former GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney, on October 27, pointed out the double-standard to CNN: "We need to make sure we have a safe place so that other women can feel like they can do this and these kinds of things aren't going to happen to them. You get so sick of saying there is bias out there, but if a Republican had said this, it would be blowing up in their face like nobody's business. Where is EMILY's List? Where is N.O.W.? Where are they?"

Mark Udall's 'Brain-Dead' Moment
Incumbent Democratic Senator Mark Udall gave network reporters an embarrassing moment they could've covered that included not one but two cringe-worthy points. During an interview with a Denver-affiliate Udall was asked to name three books he read, not only could he not come up with three books he followed it up with a comment with a less than politically-correct term.
On October 20 Mediaite reported: "But things really went off the rails when Udall was asked to name the three most influential books he's ever read along with the last song he listened to. He quickly came up with Profiles in Courage by John F. Kennedy, but then, after a lengthy pause, he appeared to be stumped. 'We can play this over, right, I mean re-tape this?' Udall asked the interviewer, perhaps not realizing that the clip would go out as-is. 'I'm brain dead today,' he admitted after failing to come up with the last song he listened to."
So far there have been zero stories on Udall's "brain-dead" comment. Not exactly the reaction the networks had to similar incidents involving Republican candidates like Texas Governor Rick Perry's inability to remember three government departments he would close. Or when Sarah Palin didn't give Katie Couric a specific periodical that she regularly read.
Udall has also had to apologize for claiming in a debate that recently beheaded journalists James Foley and Steven Sotloff "would tell us, don't be impulsive" in going after ISIS. He's also been roundly mocked as "Mark Uterus" for his false scaremongering on birth control.
Network coverage of Udall gaffes: 0 stories
Democratic Candidate Refuses to Say She Voted for Obama
Following Kentucky Democrat Alison Lundergan Grimes' repeated refusal to tell voters who she voted for in both the 2008 and 2012 presidential elections, all three networks ignored the story even though she doubled-down in her refusal to say who she voted for during an October 13 debate with incumbent Republican Senator Mitch McConnell.
Even NBC's Meet the Press host Chuck Todd, on MSNBC, said Grimes "disqualified herself" by refusing to admit she voted for the unpopular president. (Although he eventually walked back that statement.)
So how many network stories were devoted to Grimes running away from Barack Obama? Just one full story aired on the October 14 NBC Nightly News. There was also a mention on the October 12 edition of NBC Nightly News. CBS's Major Garrett also mentioned Grimes "won't even say if she voted for Mr. Obama" on the October 21 CBS Evening News.
Network coverage: 1 full story on October 14 NBC Nightly News and 1 mention on October 12 NBC Nightly News. 1 mention on October 21 CBS Evening News. Nothing on ABC.
Mark Pryor's Stumbling Ebola Response Goes Viral, Except on the Networks
Arkansas Democratic Senate candidate Mark Pryor's stumbling response to a basic question about Ebola was something of a viral hit on the Internet but the networks, who lately have been prone to airing the latest Youtube sensations, have so far refused to air a single second on the bumbling response.
However, when Pryor asked to take a selfie with former President Bill Clinton, CBS This Morning aired a brief on the moment. On October 7 CBS co-anchor Gayle King even remarked: "Everybody likes a selfie." Yet so far CBS nor any reporter at ABC and NBC have aired any stories on Pryor's stumbling Ebola answer that even the liberal crew at MSNBC's Morning Joe mocked.

Nets Don't Notice Iowa Democrat's Gaffes, But Do Cite Michelle Obama Botching His Name as a Plus
Iowa Democratic Senate candidate Bruce Braley has had a number of gaffes in his campaign. Most recently, in an October 11 debate, he denied he ever met anti-gun advocate Michael Bloomberg - when it turns out his own website touted a joint appearance.
Before that Braley insulted farmers in his own state, when he was caught on tape telling a group of trial lawyers at a January fundraiser that he would be their "voice" in Congress and also warned them that Republican Senator Chuck Grassley as "a farmer from Iowa who never went to law school" could be the next chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. So far ABC, CBS and NBC have yet to mention these political mistakes on their evening and morning shows.
However there was one gaffe connected to Braley the networks did cover. When Michelle Obama mistakenly called Bruce Braley, Bruce "Bailey" both CBS and NBC noticed the First Lady's mistake with a NBC Today co-host even citing as a potential positive for the Democrat. On the October 13 Today show NBC's Willie Geist observed that Braley is: "getting a lot of name recognition. Maybe it was like evil genius move, who knows?"

Republican Delaying a Debate for Seven Minutes Gets Coverage, Democrat No-Show at a Debate is Ignored
When Florida Republican Governor Rick Scott delayed his debate appearance by seven minutes because his Democratic opponent Charlie Crist was using a fan at his podium all three networks covered the controversy over "fangate." CBS's Charlie Rose, on the October 16 edition of CBS This Morning complained Scott was "worrying about a fan rather than talking about issues." NBC's Matt Lauer, on the October 16 Today crowed: "Florida's Governor refuses to take the stage at a debate because of the electric fan under his opponent's podium. An awkward moment that's blowing up online today."
But when North Carolina Democratic Senator Kay Hagan refused to even show up for a debate the networks didn't say a thing. The networks also skipped new documents that showed the windfall Hagan's family got from Barack Obama's stimulus package, that Hagan voted for, was "worse" than previously thought.
There were no mentions of these stories on ABC, NBC or CBS. But CBS did run a full story on the North Carolina race on September 4, because CBS's Norah O'Donnell actually moderated one of the debates where Hagan did show up. The race was also brought up on the September 5 CBS This Morning when Cosmopolitan editor Joanna Coles was interviewed by O'Donnell about candidates her magazine was endorsing. Coles called the North Carolina campaign one of the "key races" of 2014 because Hagan's Republican opponent Thom Tillis "actually killed equal pay, the equal pay bill in his state. And he supports personhood, which actually means that they want to take the IUD out of circulation for women."

Charging Campaign Flights to Taxpayer Not News, But Helping With a Keg Stand Is
Louisiana Democratic Senator Mary Landrieu got in trouble over the summer for illegally charging the taxpayers for her campaign flights. On August 12 CNN reported: "Sen. Mary Landrieu made headlines last November when she hitched a ride home on Air Force One with President Obama, but chose not to attend his event in New Orleans. Another lesser-known flight Landrieu took that same day mistakenly cost taxpayers more than $3,000. CNN has learned that the vulnerable Louisiana Democrat used government money to charter a private plane to travel to a campaign fundraiser, in violation of federal law. Landrieu spent more than $3,200 in taxpayer money to fly 400 miles round trip from New Orleans to Lake Charles, Louisiana, where she attended a $40-per person fundraising lunch with hundreds of women, according to Senate records and Landrieu campaign information. It is illegal to spend government money campaigning."
This illegality received 0 stories on ABC, CBS or NBC evening or morning shows. However, NBC did find time to talk about the Louisiana senator helping a tailgating fan do a keg stand before an LSU football game. On the September 22 Today show NBC's Matt Lauer touted how Landrieu "may do just about anything to get your vote" given that she was "in the middle of a really tough reelection campaign." Substitute host Hoda Kotb added: "I think that wins her votes, personally. Landrieu is putting the spigot in his mouth....I do guarantee you, in Louisiana, that definitely helps. I mean that helps in the vote department. For sure, right?" CBS's Nancy Cordes, on the October 27 Evening News, also mentioned the keg stand.

Both sides were familiar with the other leg at the Merseyrail Community Stadium being played just three weeks earlier, when Southport recorded a fine 5-3 victory.
The only change, saw Matty Challoner restored at right back. In difficult conditions due to the incessant rain, Southport started playing down the slope with the wind in their favour.
In a tight first half Louis Almond had Southport's best chance. 'Port's leading goalscorer, drawing a save from Julian low down after a good move from 'Port.
Crocombe struggled to deal with a nasty effort from range.
The conditions dictated that neither side was able to get the ball down and control possession, which suited Bromley, a side with considerable stature. In the second half, Southport had to defend deep in worsening conditions.
Paul Rutherford, a constant menace to Bromley struck an excellent effort which again called upon Alan Julian to make a good save.
Luke Foster, captain, was excellent in ensuring that Southport defended manfully as Bromley brought on Alex Wall, he along with Adam Cunnington boasted a huge and potent strike force.
As the game entered it's dying embers Foster made a last ditch tackle and Southport were able to showing considerable resilience. Whilst this well earned point against a much improved Bromley side brought to an end Southport's run of six straight victories, it also means that the 'Port are nine undefeated and have lost just once in eleven matches under Dino Maamria.
The end of the Bromley match signals a two week break from league affairs whilst Southport turn their attentions to a long trip to Dover Athletic in the FA Trophy.
With Southport 14th in the table, for once they can go into the trophy fixture without the added distraction of also being in the bottom echelons of the division.

Newcastle United's friendly adventure continues tonight with yet another televised fixture on ESPN for those not lucky enough to be sunning themselves on the Algarve.
We could also see first glimpses of Tim Krul and Yohan Cabaye back in action as they have returned to training following extra time off due to their European Championships involvement.
With two matches in two days we will no doubt be seeing a lot of mixing and matching both during the games and in terms of starting line-ups.
Having more of the big hitters involved though will give you more of a feel that the season is definitely getting closer.
Hatem Ben Arfa is also back from his extended holiday but won't feature tonight as he to attend his disciplinary hearing earlier today, where happily he escaped with a caution – so should be in a happy mood when he links back up with the squad.


Jay Z fires Tidal CEO after Quadrupling the Company's Worth & What You Should Know About Tidal in 90 Seconds! (Video) - T.V.S.T.
Personally I never heard of Tidal until about 6 weeks ago. Now people can't stop talking about the service. Although Tidal is the service capturing the headlines, Jay-Z actually brought stake in the parent company Aspiro. Aspiro operates Tidal which is one of the two music streaming services that the Swedish based company offers.
Somewhere between raising a kid, being the husband to one of the baddest chicks on the planet and being a mogul Jay-Z executed a four step plan to increase the girth of his pockets. Steps 1 – 3 have gone according to plan. Step 4 will be where things get real.
Before we review his 4 Step Master plan – let's break down exactly what Tidal is and what the service offers.
Once Jay Z decided to make a move to purchase Aspiro, he called up 15 of his music industry friends and talked them into investing into the business. Jay and his investors brought shares of the company at 60% above its closing stock price (on the Swedish stock exchange). He then gave out 3% of equity to each of the 15 superstars and kept 40% of the shares for himself. His superstars include the likes of industry heavyweights so big, they only need one name: Beyonce, Kanye, Rihanna, Madonna, Usher….
Sprint took the bait. Sprint gave Aspiro a huge investment which took the company's market Cap from $56 million to $256 million. This was an easy sell to Sprint as they watched Tidal's subscribers go from 17,000 to well over 100,000 in just a few weeks after Jay-Z 's involvement. Each of the 15 superstars watched in just a few weeks as their 3% ownership rose to a value of $7.68 million dollars. Jay-Z is a genius!
Andy Chen – FIRED AS CEO!
TIDAL's new interum [sic] CEO is Peter Tonstad – a former CEO of parent company Aspiro Group. He has a better understanding of the industry and a clear vision for how the company is looking to change the status quo. He's streamlining resources to ensure talent is maximized to enhance the customer experience. We've eliminated a handful of positions and refocused our company-wide talent to address departments that need support and cut redundancies. TIDAL's offices globally will remain and grow: we are already hiring for several new positions now. We're excited about our future and what's in-store for fans who want the best listening experience.
WHAT NEXT? STEP 4 – FIGURE OUT HOW TO GIVE PEOPLE VALUE FOR THEIR MONEY – OR FLIP THIS SH*T FAST AND MOVE ON TO SOMETHING ESLE!
Now Jay Z is worth $650 million dollars. His $23.6 million dollar investment in Aspiro has ballooned to $102.4 million. When added to his previous net worth of $580 that boosts him closer to the holy grail of Billionaire-dom. This temporary success comes with the challenge of still delivering a service worthy of the $19.95 per month price point While fans might have signed up quickly on the promise of exclusive content, if the content is really not exclusive and plentiful the rate of subscriber renewals will begin to dip. Tidal is also being criticized for having a weak overall catalogue and the perceived sound quality advantages are barely detectable by the lay-person who just wants to bump beats at work.
Tidal's app which was in the Top 20 when Jay-Z made his takeover has now fallen out of the top 700!
As you can see, Jay-Z and this new CEO have their work cut out for them. Unless he has some hi-tech tricks up his sleeve Jay Z should just sell now, while he still looks like a genius.
Are you using Tidal? Is it worth it?

Doctor Who: Big Finish - MASK OF TRAGEDY Review
Tony Fyler gets his Greek on.
Mask of Tragedy is, above all and with a perversity that will appeal to most Big Finish fans, a comedy.
It's a Seventh Doctor story, so of course it's a comedy dark enough to have been born in the heart of a black hole, but still, if it's not trying to be funny, then something somewhere has gone staggeringly wrong.
The Doctor takes Ace and particularly Hector, who's still recovering from having the chasm in his mind filled up with the Nucleus of the Swarm, for a bit of a holiday, to ancient Athens.
Proving that in the home of theatre, everyone's a critic, as well as harking back to the days of the First Doctor, Dodo and Steven, neither Ace nor Hector seem particularly impressed – not even when it turns out that the Athenians know all about aliens, and in fact run (almost Navarino-style) tours of the wonder that is Athens for the fairly constant influx of aliens who come to gaze upon its majesty.
The majesty, as far as Ace is concerned, means being allowed to do 'naff-all' – not act in the theatre, not even go to the theatre, not be able to walk five steps without getting up the nose of the paranoic King Cleon, and not, as it turns out save herself from being expelled from the city and left at the mercy of the Spartan army camped outside, preparing to come in and sack the place to within an inch of its cultivated life. One alien visitor in particular is causing a bit of an accidental ruckuss (as you tend to do when you look like a massive flying beetle), which is why Tyrgius the beetle-man from outer space uses a mask – widely mistaken for the Mask of Dionysus (god of joy and partying, essentially), but really a piece of alien tech that makes humans suggestible, so they see him as an almost insanely beautiful young Athenian swain.
Meanwhile the Doctor pops in to pay the money he owes to Aristophanes, ye olde playwright, who here is notte-so-olde-at-all, and played (by Samuel West, no less) as a kind of rock and roll Giles from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. An old friend of the Doctor's and a merciless satirist of poor, increasingly unhinged King Cleon, Aristophanes is an island of sanity in an Athens going mad – a sickness turns men into harmless zombies, Tyrgius the beetle flies about the place being taken for a Fury, the Mask (thank you, Jim Carrey) makes its wearer feel like the god Dionysus and start strutting about the place imposing their will on the suggestible populace, giving Hector actor Philip Olivier his second chance in two stories to do some classic 'possessed' acting. Oh and there's the really rubbish dancing girls. No-one expects the really rubbish dancing girls.
If you take one thing away from Mask of Tragedy, remember this – do not mess with the really rubbish dancing girls.
For a story set in ancient Athens, and particularly one that centres its action on the theatre of ancient Athens, it's pleasing to find that Mask of Tragedy all hangs on a Deus Ex Machina, and it's a couple of hours of enjoyable knockabout fun from author James Goss. But Mask of Tragedy, for all it slips by quite amiably, is not perfect by any means. The tone is ambitious, channeling the Donald Cotton scripts of the 60s (The Myth Makers, The Romans, The Gunfighters) through a very modern, New Who sensibility (Athens being a temporal tourist spot, so the locals being au fait with aliens), with just a dash of Delta and the Bannermen to suggest this is a Sylvester McCoy story. All of which should be a godawful car crash, but really isn't – the writing and performance behind Aristophanes being a big help in smoothing the story along. Such issues as there are with it really seem to be in the Doctor's companions here. This feels and sounds like very young Ace, Sophie Aldred's intonation and breeziness belonging squarely to the girl we met on IceWorld, rather than the woman who's a seasoned veteran of time and space. In itself, that's a nice surprise – it's good to hear a glimpse of that young Ace again – but it does rather jar with where we are in her timestream, to the point where I've just spent around seventy words noticing it. Hector too feels like a character almost bogged down by his own backstory here – Hex, as he was, is always being thrown at him, and he spends a lot of time stropping off, demanding not to be compared to the man he has no memory of ever being – while seeming so very much like that man that it feels overplayed. Hector Thomas when he was first introduced as Hector Thomas was an intriguing character who'd learned to survive as himself. Here, he's mostly Not-Hex, and this too feels, if not exactly jarring, then rather manufactured. This doesn't help with the delivery of the denouement of the story, a kind of Steven Taylor stropfest where Hector turns on Ace and the Doctor, accusing them of treating history like a comedy, no matter who dies or who's wounded along the way, no matter what the consequences of their interference is. It's an accusation that's been levelled at the Doctor before and it's worked brilliantly, but you have to believe in the character who's doing the accusing if you're going to pull it off, and here, we more or less don't. There's a potential to Hector that was pretty much papered over in The Revenge of the Swarm, and that's continued here. There's plenty of 'telling' of who he is and what he's been through, but not enough 'showing' of it in his own actions to convince.
So – one to buy then?
Despite the issues with the companions, yes, if you have £15 to spare (£13 on download), this is one to pick up. The threat's not too threatening, but the period's fun, the comic tone is delicious, the themes are well-delivered and the performance of Sam West as Aristophanes the unsuccessful comedian is a joy to listen to several times over. Pick up the Mask of Tragedy, and have a ball.

Instagrammer Fran García held a meeting with students from the Universidad Europea de Canarias, specifically from the Advertising Communication course on Creative Thinking, taught by José Leoncio Gonzále, speaking about trends on Instagram.
Fran is an influencer who lives in La Orotava and has vast experience in the world of social media. His activity on this course consisted of a workshop on using this social network from a creative perspective: he spoke about followers, looks and how Instagram fits into the advertising market, as well as giving tips to the students who, as part of the course, will conduct a Project Based Learning (ABP) initiative with the local business Crossfit Orotava, using Instagram as a communication channel.


We're not for English classes only: our tutors come from various disciplines and have training in various forms of writing. While we don't tutor content, this diversity enables the tutors to help students learn the conventions and expectations when writing in different fields. We work with your students throughout the writing process: brainstorming, outlining, drafting and revising. While we don't edit or proofread, we help students learn how to become better editors of their own work.
Our tutors range from upper-level students to professional tutors with graduate degrees. Regardless of education, tutors work with students side by side as colleagues or consultants rather than teachers. In this way, we help students find their own ideas and voices while always searching for clearer and more effective ways of writing. We always welcome visits from faculty. We would love to help you revise papers or projects, or to provide feedback on the wording of new assignments. Every writer needs a reader.
You may request a visit from a Writing Center representative at any point in the semester. During this 5-10 minute presentation, the representative will introduce your students to the Writing Center's services and offerings.
We offer workshops for your classes. Tutors come to your class to work with your students in small groups, providing some writing exercises and instruction. These workshops can be fashioned to your course's time restrictions and needs. Email Carissa Smith csmith@csuniv.edu to request a workshop.
After every session, tutors fill out a client report form with input from the student. This form outlines the focus of the session and lists any major revision suggestions the tutor made. We ask students if they would like a copy of the client report form emailed to their professors as well as to themselves. The report forms facilitate communication between students, professors, and the Writing Center to assist in students' growth as writers.
Through one-on-one sessions (25 or 50 minutes), the Writing Center (Norris Hall 209) supports writers of all levels, in all disciplines. The WC helps writers brainstorm, find topics, incorporate and document sources, develop revision strategies, hone grammatical skills and much more. Schedule an appointment or stop by NH 209. For your session, take a copy of your assignment, your notes or ideas, any source materials and your draft (if you have one).


Ultrasonic forces to correctly pattern several microscopic water-based droplets have been used by researchers at the University of Bristol. Each droplet can be designed to conduct a biochemical experiment, which could lead to the development of highly efficient lab-on-a-chip devices that can then be applied in future applications involving clinical diagnostics and drug discovery.
In a recent study published in Nature Communications, an interdisciplinary team from University of Bristol's departments of chemistry, physics and engineering, have demonstrated a non-contact technique to design chemically encoded aqueous droplets into a 2D array under water.
The technique applies ultrasonic forces integrated with droplet technology to spontaneously produce a very uniform pattern of low surface tension functional water-based droplets. The arrays can be assumed to be a new type of highly parallel platform for conducting high-throughput analysis in water for drug discovery, protein crystallization, and clinical diagnostics.
The ability to carry out thousands of microscale experiments concurrently will pave the way for more efficient lab-on-a-chip technologies.
Existing patterning technologies require water and oil mixtures or exposure on a dry surface to realize arrays of high surface tension droplets. This means that several water-based biochemical reactions are difficult to perform. The new technique circumvents these issues by patterning the water-based droplets within a water-filled chamber, which is subjected to an acoustic standing wave.
By manipulating the composition of the droplets and producing the acoustic field, the team has created uniform arrays of droplets or droplet aggregates organized in square lattices. The droplet size, surface-attachment properties, and spacing could be effectively controlled and were reversible. The droplets can also be loaded with enzymes, proteins, nucleotides, polysaccharides, DNA, nanoparticles or microparticles, and used in chemical reactions at small-scale.
As the coavervate droplets are formed they are gripped by the ultrasonic forces and patterned. The uniformity of the droplets is amazing. I'm convinced this technology will have many applications in the next generation of lab-on-a-chip applications.
Professor Stephen Mann, from Bristol Centre for Protolife Research, added: "The acoustic patterning method significantly extends the scope of the current micro-array technologies. We should now be able to develop devices capable of sustaining chemical signals between the droplets as well as enabling spatial and temporal responses to changing conditions in the external environment. This will allow us to exploit the acoustically trapped liquid droplets as a 2D community of spatially organized membrane-free protocells."


Judd Apatow and Amy Schumer are two great tastes that taste great together. Great. Now I want a Reeses.
I'm a big Inside Amy Schumer fan. I dig Apatow's oeuvre, though some more than others. (Giving you the side-eye, Pineapple Express.) But I figured if anyone could nail down the weirdness of trying to overcome the trust issues and ingrained mistrust of the world that is dating in the 21st Century, it'd be these two. I was right. Boom.
In Trainwreck, Schumer plays Amy (obviously), a woman whose dad has told her that "monogamy isn't realistic". So all her life she's been the stereotypical dude in the relationship, hooking up and skipping out before mattresses have even had a chance to spring back into shape. She's a writer for a magazine that feels like a cross between Maxim and How To Be A Chauvinist Weekly. Her beautiful, too-cool senior editor Dianna (played by Tilda Swinton, with just the right touch of IDGAF) tasks her with writing a piece about a big-time sports medicine doc whose been credited with saving the careers of many high-profile sportsball types.

A husky dog tattoo on the shoulder or on the leg is a symbol of fidelity, courage, sincerity. Many peoples considered these animals to be true companions to a person. The ancient Slavs believed that the dog had a supernatural gift of predicting the future. That is why such tattoos have been considered to be an amulet protecting man from evil spirits from ancient times.
The Husky breed lives in harsh conditions. It is a hardy and strong breed. She never gives up, the desire is in her blood. At the same time dogs of this breed are distinguished by ingenuity and individual character. People lack these qualities, so they make a tattoo depicting such a wonderful animal.
WHAT DOES TATTOO WITH HUSKY IDENTIFY?
Tattoos with a picture of husky are made by people who primarily like this breed. Almost everyone falls in love with the husky with their sky-blue eyes. They live in the northern countries, so it's not surprising that tattoos with husky done by people who are somehow connected with Siberia.
A tattoo with a Husky image shows the qualities that this dog has — movement forward, endurance, thirst for adventure. A meaningful look makes you think does she really understand everything? There is something mysterious in these eyes, mystical that does not leave us alone.
Another meaning of tattoos with the husky is the memory of a four-footed friend. Sentimental owners make a tattoo with a portrait of a beloved animal.
WHAT PART OF BODY IS THE BEST FOR TATTOO?
People make tattoos in the form of a portrait of a husky on the shoulder, hip or calf muscle in most cases. Where there is more workplace for the future picture. Styles can be different, from realism — style, with photographic image accuracy, to Old School — classical tattoos.

Ferenc Kazinczy (, ), né le  à Érsemjén/Șimian, Partium (de nos jours en Roumanie), et mort le  à Széphalom, est un homme de lettres hongrois.

Biographie

Avocat, notaire de comitat, inspecteur scolaire, Kazinczy fut impliqué dans la conspiration jacobine de 1793, condamné à mort et subit un emprisonnement de sept années après que sa sentence eut été commuée.

À sa sortie de prison, cet infatigable réformateur de la littérature et de la langue hongroises consacra sa vie à la cause du renouveau de la langue dans les lettres et l'administration et de la littérature hongroise. Il fut le chef de file des « néologistes » (partisans du renouveau linguistique nyelvújítás), qui enrichirent la langue de quelque  mots, dont la moitié entra dans le langage courant.

Kazinczy fut l'un des premiers membres de l'Académie hongroise fondée en 1830 et à l'établissement de laquelle il contribua. Il fonda, en 1788, le Magyar Muzeum, le premier écrit périodique publié en hongrois. Ses compatriotes lui doivent en outre des traductions de diverses œuvres des littératures étrangères, puis des poèmes, une tragédie, Lanassa, des récits de voyage, des lettres, etc.

Il a traduit Anacréon, Cicéron, Salluste, La Rochefoucauld, Marmontel, Molière, Shakespeare, Sterne, Lessing, Goethe, Wieland, Klopstock, Ossian, Métastase.

Ses Œuvres ont été réunies (Pest, 1814-1816, 9 vol., et 1843-1844).

Novel plasticity rule can explain the development of sensorimotor intelligence
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 112(45):E6224-E6232, 2015 (article)
Grounding autonomous behavior in the nervous system is a fundamental challenge for neuroscience. In particular, self-organized behavioral development provides more questions than answers. Are there special functional units for curiosity, motivation, and creativity? This paper argues that these features can be grounded in synaptic plasticity itself, without requiring any higher-level constructs. We propose differential extrinsic plasticity (DEP) as a new synaptic rule for self-learning systems and apply it to a number of complex robotic systems as a test case. Without specifying any purpose or goal, seemingly purposeful and adaptive rhythmic behavior is developed, displaying a certain level of sensorimotor intelligence. These surprising results require no system-specific modifications of the DEP rule. They rather arise from the underlying mechanism of spontaneous symmetry breaking, which is due to the tight brain body environment coupling. The new synaptic rule is biologically plausible and would be an interesting target for neurobiological investigation. We also argue that this neuronal mechanism may have been a catalyst in natural evolution.

The Playful Machine - Theoretical Foundation and Practical Realization of Self-Organizing Robots
Springer, Berlin Heidelberg, 2012 (book)
Autonomous robots may become our closest companions in the near future. While the technology for physically building such machines is already available today, a problem lies in the generation of the behavior for such complex machines. Nature proposes a solution: young children and higher animals learn to master their complex brain-body systems by playing. Can this be an option for robots? How can a machine be playful? The book provides answers by developing a general principle---homeokinesis, the dynamical symbiosis between brain, body, and environment---that is shown to drive robots to self-determined, individual development in a playful and obviously embodiment-related way: a dog-like robot starts playing with a barrier, eventually jumping or climbing over it; a snakebot develops coiling and jumping modes; humanoids develop climbing behaviors when fallen into a pit, or engage in wrestling-like scenarios when encountering an opponent. The book also develops guided self-organization, a new method that helps to make the playful machines fit for fulfilling tasks in the real world.

Learning to Feel the Physics of a Body
Der, R., Hesse, F., Martius, G.
In Computational Intelligence for Modelling, Control and Automation, CIMCA 2005 , 2, pages: 252-257, Washington, DC, USA, 2005 (inproceedings)
Despite the tremendous progress in robotic hardware and in both sensorial and computing efficiencies the performance of contemporary autonomous robots is still far below that of simple animals. This has triggered an intensive search for alternative approaches to the control of robots. The present paper exemplifies a general approach to the self-organization of behavior which has been developed and tested in various examples in recent years. We apply this approach to an underactuated snake like artifact with a complex physical behavior which is not known to the controller. Due to the weak forces available, the controller so to say has to develop a kind of feeling for the body which is seen to emerge from our approach in a natural way with meandering and rotational collective modes being observed in computer simulation experiments.

I host a weekly radio show on SiriusXM 11, Business Radio Powered by Wharton, called Work and Life. We publish edited version of my conversations as free podcasts. I invite you to listen to the episode (embedded below) that is my conversation with Julie Foudy — currently an ESPN analyst, proud mother of two, and author of a forthcoming book Choose To Matter— who is one of the most accomplished soccer players in the world. She competed in four World Cups, three Olympics, and is former Captain of the U.S. Women's National Soccer Team. In 2007, Julie was inducted into the National Soccer Hall of Fame. Her leadership extends beyond the soccer field, both as a major advocate for gender equality in sports and as founder of the Sports Leadership Academy, a girls soccer and lacrosse leadership camp that transforms lives. Foudy's remarkable story is featured in my most recent book Leading the Life You Want: Skills for Integrating Work and Life.
We talk about the roots of her success, what it took for her to make critical early career decisions based on what mattered most to her, and how the gender bias she experienced firsthand as a player led her to challenge the status quo, advocate for women's rights, and devote herself to empowering young women. Julie describes the lessons she's learned about mentoring, how she guides young women's growth through sports, and more in this lively conversation.

Q: An extension that is normal but not separable I'm looking for an example of an normal extension but not separable; all I know is that $\mathbb{F}_p(t)$ is not separable since $X^p-t$ is not. Thank you for your time

A: Recall (or convince yourself) that every extension of degree $2$ is normal and use the example you recalled with a suitable choice of $p$.


The College Sheriff should be immediately notified of the disturbance at extension 2911 from a campus phone or 818-947-2911 from another phone.
Avoid provoking or obstructing the demonstrators.
Avoid the area of the disturbance or demonstration.
Stay away from doors and windows if the disturbance is outside.


Look! Up in the sky... it's a bird... it's a plane... NO she's in the plane... she's Elal of Shades of Gray.
Elal or "E" consider this photo as one of her favorites because she took it during one of her flights back to her hometown of Dumaguete last December 28, 2013. The flight also happened to be her most expensive return trip ticket yet but she showed no regrets in buying the ticket because she is just so happy, as can be seen from her smile, to be back home.
Yeah I know. I do feel like a beauty pageant host reading the phrase above as Elal walks the stage but who can blame me, Elal has what it takes to be a beauty queen.
So do check out her travel stories and photography at www.elaljanelasola.com.
A delightful post and photo, Oman!! Thanks for sharing! Elal is indeed a lovely young woman!! Have a great weekend!!
And by the way, Elal is such a hottie, and can be a beauty queen too. I'd guess she's a bubbly and care-free person. I'll pay a visit to her blog soon. :) Thanks for sharing her domain.
Hi Jay, welcome to my blog. Comments like yours make me want to continue blogging even though I am tired and weary from work. Thanks.
Welcome and it's my pleasure reading a blog that is not boring and the write-ups is just so engaging to read.
She is pretty alright and great blog too.
Yup. She has her ways of shooting landscapes that is both different and refreshing to look at. Awesome blogger.
Is the plane up in the air already? I guess hindi cellphone cam yan coz di sya allowed kahit plane mode di ba?
Haha, I dunno really but I heard there is a new flight rule now on cellphones and I think its allowed already. I dunno, I'll get back to you on this one.
thanks for visiting Belgium !
So many beautiful faces in the Philippines.
What I like about Elal is that she visit backs to your blog whenever you drop by at her blog. Plus she a number of great travel photographs worth looking to.
I agree, her landscapes speak volume.

Ok, you guys. There's no avoiding it. It's actually happened, he turned two. Yes, those are quiet sobs you hear from his Mommy.
*He has this new thing and it's so cute it's killing me. Randomly he will walk over to me and put his hand on my shoulder and ask in a very concerned little voice "ok, Mommy?" And then I have to tell him that yes, I am ok. Thanks for asking. Then he goes back to doing whatever it is he was doing. So cute.
*He love love loves his new babies. They may technically be his cousins, but he thinks they belong to him. Every time that he sees them, he follows you around saying "mine hold it!" with his arms out. Any chance he gets he gives them kisses and talks to them. It's the sweetest thing.
*The highlight of the month was getting to spend some time on a real Zamboni. It dumped snow, it "beep beep"ed. It. was. awesome.
*It's hard to believe that just two short years ago, we were holding our tiny, little five pound baby. He has come a long way.

I am trying to redirect users that hit the web server from LAN to the /user/login/sso directory with:
            RewriteEngine On
            RewriteCond %{REMOTE_HOST} 172.16. [NC,OR]
            RewriteRule .* https://intranet.xxxx.com/user/login/sso [R=301,L]

But as soon as I add this under the  block I get a page cannot be displayed.
If I change the RewriteRule to something like https://www.google.com and hit the web server at https://intranet.xxxx.com on the LAN it redirects me to google OK.
What I want it to do is, for any LAN user hitting the https://intranet.xxx.com path to be redirected to the /user/login/sso first.
Maybe mod_rewrite is not the correct place to do this? Any other suggestions? The intranet is a Drupal powered website.

A: Shouldn't that be handled in Drupal? I think you can do this with it's core function. Just remove view any content permissions for anonymous users and see if that works. And just leave authenticated users. I think since this is based on PHP auth it probably should be handled with the code/cms.
