If the Islanders beat the Devils tonight, they would finish with
identical records. Who's the lucky team that gets to face the Penguins
in the opening round? Also, can somebody list the rules for breaking
ties.

I am looking for a package that implements standard
image processing functions (reading/writing from
standard formats), clipping, zoom, etc. implemented
under X. Both public domain and private packages
are of interest. The particular application area I
have in mind is medical imaging, but a package meant
for a more general context would be acceptable.
Please reply to me; I will summarize on the net if
there is general interest.

I thought Bill James' latest book completely and totally sucked. I bought
it, but will not purchase anything of his ever again without THOROUGHLY
looking at it first. What tripe.
The book is inconsistent, and filled with selective analysis. James
claims to be looking forward, and then makes some absolutely bizarre
statements of value. Not only that, but I got the impression he
probably glanced at the book for about an hour before he put his name
on it.
To say I was disappointed is a grand understatement.

I've heard of sillier things, like a well-known utility company
wanting to buy an 'automated' boiler-cleaning system which uses as many
operators as the old system, and which rumour has it costs three million
more per unit. Automation is more 'efficient' although by what scale they are
not saying...

Why? Do you suppose he's immune to the ravages of time? He's 37.
In a few years he'll be 40. He doesn't get to as many grounders as
he used to, and will get to fewer still as his legs go, as they do
on every human so far.
Remember: Willie Mays was a defensive liability at he end of his
career too. Ditto Mickey Mantle. Ditto just about everyone else who
played into their late 30's.

No: It is old. You said AMORC *IS*, not *was*... :-)
Nothing personal, OK? Good! :-)
Maybe you didn't know that it's over by now. There is no more
pending legal actions from no where, period. So yes, there was a
situation and it has been resolved by BOTH parties. As long as humans
handle anything, it is subjected to "breaking" :-)
BTW, Gary L. Stewart has a P.O. Box in TX calling his org ARC:

Exactly.
C. S. Lewis has taken a couple of pretty severe hits in this group lately.
First somebody was accusing him of being self-righteous and unconvincing.
Now we are told that we Christians should be embarrassed by him. (As well
as by Josh McDowell, about whom I have no comment, having never read his
work.)
Anyone who thinks that C. S. Lewis was self-righteous ought to read his
introduction to The Problem of Pain, which is his theodicy. In it, he
explains that he wanted to publish the book anonymously. Why? Although he
believed in the argument he was presenting, he did not want to seem to
presume to tell others how brave they should be in the face of their own
suffering. He did not want people to think that he was presenting himself
as some kind of model of fortitude, or that he was anything other than what
he considered himself to be -- "a great coward."
OFM has adequately handled the question of whether we ought to be
embarrassed by Lewis' liar/lunatic/lord argument (which, by the way, is
part of a *much* bigger discourse.) I would just like to add that, far from
being embarrassed by Lewis, I am in a state of continual amazement at the
soundness and clarity of the arguments he presents.

All of this is fine. I never said that Murray was a bad GM. I merely said
that he isn't the best GM in hockey- or even a contender for that honor.
If Murray is as great as you claim- the Wings would have won the Stanley Cup
by now- probably more than once. If he was as great a GM as you claim
and he was as poor a coach as you claim- he would have been intelligent
enough to hire the coach to push the team to the next level of success.
But Murray is an average (unspectacular) NHL coach and a pretty good GM
so none of this is true anyway.

This notice will be posted weekly in sci.space, sci.astro, and
sci.space.shuttle.
The Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) list for sci.space and sci.astro is
posted approximately monthly. It also covers many questions that come up on
sci.space.shuttle (for shuttle launch dates, see below).
The FAQ is posted with a long expiration date, so a copy may be in your
news spool directory (look at old articles in sci.space). If not, here are
two ways to get a copy without waiting for the next posting:
(1) If your machine is on the Internet, it can be obtained by anonymous
FTP from the SPACE archive at ames.arc.nasa.gov (128.102.18.3) in directory
pub/SPACE/FAQ.
(2) Otherwise, send email to '[email protected]'
containing the single line:
help
The archive server will return directions on how to use it. To get an
index of files in the FAQ directory, send email containing the lines:
send space FAQ/Index
send space FAQ/faq1
Use these files as a guide to which other files to retrieve to answer
your questions.
Shuttle launch dates are posted by Ken Hollis periodically in
sci.space.shuttle. A copy of his manifest is now available in the Ames
archive in pub/SPACE/FAQ/manifest and may be requested from the email
archive-server with 'send space FAQ/manifest'. Please get this document
instead of posting requests for information on launches and landings.

First of all, thanks to those of you who responded, both here and via e-mail.
The tips didn't pan out, but it was good hearing from you.
Now, following up to my earlier post:
[...]
: Disk controller: Acculogic sIDE-3 2 hard/2 floppy IDE controller
: Jumpers: All defaulted (shown as *):
: Normal IRQ*/delayed IRQ Primary*/secondary floppy address
: Single*/dual speed floppy Primary*/secondary IDE address
: Precomp = 125ns*/187 ns IOCHRDY not driven*/IDE drive controls IOCHRDY
[...]
: Other cards: (didn't check brand) 2 Serial/1 Parallel adapter
: Logitech Bus Mouse adapter
: Roland MPU-401-compatible MIDI interface
: Configured with default IRQ 2, mem address 0330
I opened up the box and removed all the "other cards" above. No help there.
Then, not having anything better to try, I changed Normal IRQ to Delayed
IRQ on the disk controller (didn't make any difference) and IOCHRDY_not_
driven to IDE_drive_controls_IOCHRDY (also had no effect). So I put
everything back to the way it was and re-installed the cards.
I then unplugged the floppy drive cable from the disk controller. Voila!,
the PC booted from power up, although it seemed to take several seconds
before the first access to the hard disk. Plug the floppy cable back
to the controller and the original (non-boot) behavior returns.
O.K., with this additional information, does anyone in netland have any
words of wisdom for what's going on and how I should deal with it?

Every time somone writes something and says it is merely describing the norm,
it is infact re-inforcing that norm upon those programmed not to think for
themselves. The motto is dangerous in itself, it tells the world that every
*true* American is god-fearing, and puts down those who do not fear gods. It
doesn't need anyone to make it dangerous, it does a good job itself by just
existing on your currency.

Oh contrer mon captitan! There is a way. Certainly it is not by human reason.
Certainly it is not by human experience. (and yet it is both!) To paraphrase
Sartre, the particular is absurd unless it has an infinite reference point. It
is only because of God's own revelation that we can be absolute about a thing.
Your logic comes to fruition in relativism.
Ah, now it is clear. Ludwig was a desciple of Russell. Ludwig's fame is often
explained by the fact that he spawned not one but two significant movements in
contemporary philosophy. Both revolve around Tractatus Logico-Philosphicus
('21) and Philosophical Investigation ('53). Many of Witt's comments and
implicit conclusions suggest ways of going beyond the explicit critique of
language he offers. According to some of the implicit suggestions of Witt's
thought, ordinary language is an invaluable resource, offering a necessary
framework for the conduct of daily life. However, though its formal features
remain the same, its content does not and it is always capable of being
transcended as our experience changes and our understanding is deepened, giving
us a clearer picture of what we are and what we wish to say. On Witt's own
account, there is a dynamic fluidity of language. It is for this reason that
any critique of language must move from talking about the limits of language to
talking about its boundaries, where a boundary is understood not as a wall but
a threshold.
vonWrights's comment that Witt's "sentences have a content that often lies
deep beneath the surface of language." On the surface, Witt talks of the
insuperable position of ordinary language and the necessity of bringing
ourselves to accept it without question. At the same time, we are faced with
Witt's own creative uses of language and his concern for bringing about changes
in our traditional modes of understanding. Philosophy, then, through more
perspicacious speech, seeks to effect this unity rather than assuming that it
is already functioning. Yes? The most brilliant of scientists are unable to
offer a foundation for human speech so long as they reject Christianity! In his
Tractatus we have the well nigh perfect exhibition of the nature of the impasse
of the scientific ideal of exhaustive logical analysis of Reality by man.
Perfect language does not exist for fallen man, therefore we must get on about
our buisness of relating Truth via ordinary language.
This is why John's Gospel is so dear to most Christians. It is so simple in
it conveyance of the revealation of God, yet so full of unlieing depth of
understanding. He viewed Christ from the OT concept of "as a man thinketh, so
he is." John looked at the outward as only an indicator of what was inside,
that is the consciousness of Christ. And so must we. Words are only vehicals
of truth. He is truth. The scriptures are plain in their expounding that
there is a Truth and that it is knowable. THere are absolutes, and they too
are knowable. However, they are only knowable when He reveals them to the
individual. There is, and we shouldn't shy from this, a mysticism to
Christianity. Paul in ROm 8 says there are 3 men in the world. There is the
one who does not have the Spirit and therefore can not know the things of the
Spirit (the Spirit of Truth) and there is the one who has the Spirit and has
the capacity to know of the Truth, but there is the third. THe one who not
only has the Spirit, but that the Spirit has him! Who can know the deep things
of God and reveal them to us other than the Spirit. And it is only the deep
things of GOd that are absolute and true.
There is such a thing as true truth and it is real, it can be experienced
and it is verifiable. I disagree with Dr Nancy's Sweetie's conclusion because
if it is taken to fruition it leads to relativism which leads to dispair.
"I would know the words which He would answer me, and understand what He would
say unto me." Job 23ff

First by his fruits. The messiah comes to build the kingdom of heaven
on the earth. He also comes to first reveal the root cause of
original sin (fallen nature) and then provide a means to cut the
connection to that original sin. He also wants to create world peace
based on Godism. The messiah's teachings will build on the foundation
of the Bible but provide profound new insights into the nature of God,
the fall of man, the purpose of creation, and God's providence of
restoration. It will also provide a foundation for the unity of all
the World's religions.
Many Christians expect Jesus to come on literal clouds, so they may
miss him when he returns. Just as the Jewish people missed Jesus 2000
years ago. They are still waiting for his first coming. The Jewish
people of that age expected Elijah to come first. Jesus said that
John the Baptist was Elijah. But John the Baptist denied that he was
Elijah. (How did this reflect on Jesus?) Later in prison John even
questioned who Jesus was: "is he the one who is to come or do we look
for another". (see book of Matthew)
David Koresh didn't even come close. The problem is that people like
this make it difficult for people to believe and trust in the real
Messiah when he does show up.
Very good point and perhaps the most important point of all for
Christians: How to recognize the Second Coming?
The Messiah should not claim to be God. What sets a Messiah apart is
that he is born without original sin. He is not born perfect but
achieves perfection after a period of growth. Adam and Eve were born
sinless but they fell, and this tragedy meant that it would take God
thousands of years to create the kingdom of heaven on the earth as God
originally intended. God's restoration providence is still not
complete. The messiah is the true Son of God, one with God, God's
representative on the earth, but not God himself. There is only one
God.
...
Who else in this world is claiming to be the Messiah. Maybe he's already here.

For me, it is a "I believe no gods exist" and a "I don't believe gods exist".
In other words, I think that statements like gods are or somehow interfere
with this world are false or meaningless. In Ontology, one can fairly
conclude that when "A exist" is meaningless A does not exist. Under the
Pragmatic definition of truth, "A exists" is meaningless makes A exist
even logically false.
A problem with such statements is that one can't disprove a subjective god
by definition, and there might be cases where a subjective god would even
make sense. The trouble with most god definitions is that they include
some form of objective existence with the consequence of the gods affecting
all. Believers derive from it a right to interfere with the life of others.

Um, surely you didn't intend to compare the '93 Reds with the
29 Philidelphia A's. The Yankees were finishing 2nd to
a team that was as good as the 26-28 Yankees, while the
Yankees had aged some from their peak years. Ruth and Gehrig
couldn't play every position simultaneously.
IMO, given the various ages of the Braves and Reds this season,
that the Braves will be closer to their peak, while the Reds
have slightly passed their peak.
Also, if you're going to compare Braves and Yankees, a more appropriate
comparison to the '93 Braves might be the '23 Yankees.
After falling short two years in a row in exciting World Series,
both teams won/will win the Series this year, despite the
heroics of some old fart on the other team.

Hi, I am using a dtk 386-20Mhz 13Meg memory to run a variety of
programs, and have had problems off and on with lock up,
but now I am trying to run an application that wants a lot of memory
over a period of time (Playmation 24 bit rendered) and it is
locking up Everytime. I have an ATI ultra + w/2Meg which I have
tried in each of the video modes, I have excluded the region of
video memory from A000-C800 segments from the use of emm386,
have tried adjusting the swap partion from large to nonexistant (to
prevent swapping) and I have REM'd ALL TSR's and utilities in config.syus
and autoexec, and even tried using the default program manager, disabling
my HP dashboard. even with a minimal system, no swap, no smartdrv,
no TSR's, no windows utilities and exclusion of video regions it still
locks up completely (no mouse control, no response to anything except
3finger salute, and even that does not stop by the standard windows
screen, but simply does a full reset immediately). Just about out
of ideas, anyone out there have any???? Thanks

Off and on over the last several months, threads about RBIs and
related topics have gotten me to thinking about how well we can
predict a player's RBIs using information about his overall
performance and the number of runners in scoring position (RISP)
that he bats with. In the Brock2 model, Bill James calculated
predicted RBIs as RBI=.235*(Total Bases) + Home Runs. This
completely ignores the context, which was all that Brock2
could do, since context was unknown to it. So I thought I'd
take that idea as a starting point and look how good a fit to
the data you get by comparing (RBI-Home Runs) to SLG*RISP.
I've started with team data, using data from the Elias's that
I've picked up over the years when a) I could afford them and
b) I could stomach the thought of increasing Elias's profits.
That gave me the years 1984-1986, 1988, and 1990. (I don't
have team RBIs for '87 or I could add that year.) If you
run a simple least squares fit to the data you get
(RBI-Home Runs) = 0.81*SLG*RISP.
The correlation between the LHS and the RHS is 0.86, which is
significant at a ridiculously high level. So, I feel like the
fit is good at the team level. I've no started to move on to
the player level and have looked at 4 players (Will Clark,
Ozzie Smith, Joe Carter, and Don Mattingly). I hope to
add quite a few more during my copious free time this year.
It doesn't do too badly, except the equation underpredicts the
low HR hitter (Smith), which may be a fault of the model or it
could just be Ozzie. The results:
RBI-HR
Years Actual Predicted
Carter (84-88,90) 400 402.6
Clark (87,88,90,92) 269 269.6
Matt'ly (84-88,90) 471 460.8
Smith (84-88,90) 317 280.6
I think we can make a case (and I hope to make it stronger) that
RBIs can be predicted simply from knowing how a player slugs overall
and how many men are in scoring position when he comes up.
More later,
Harold

CONTACTING NASA, ESA, AND OTHER SPACE AGENCIES/COMPANIES
Many space activities center around large Government or International
Bureaucracies. In the US that means NASA. If you have basic information
requests: (e.g., general PR info, research grants, data, limited tours, and
ESPECIALLY SUMMER EMPLOYMENT (typically resumes should be ready by Jan. 1),
etc.), consider contacting the nearest NASA Center to answer your questions.
EMail typically will not get you any where, computers are used by
investigators, not PR people. The typical volume of mail per Center is a
multiple of 10,000 letters a day. Seek the Public Information Office at one
of the below, this is their job:
NASA (The National Aeronautics and Space Administration) is the
civilian space agency of of the United States Federal Government.
It reports directly to the White House and is not a Cabinet
post such as the military Department of Defense. Its 20K+ employees
are civil servants and hence US citizens. Another 100K+ contractors
also work for NASA.

The "heavies" in planetary research probes and other unmanned
projects (they also had a lot to do with IRAS). They run Voyager,
Magellan, Galileo, and will run Cassini, CRAF, etc. etc.. For
images, probe navigation, and other info about unmanned exploration,
this is the place to go.
JPL is run under contract for NASA by the nearby California
Institute of Technology, unlike the NASA centers above. This
distinction is subtle but critical. JPL has different requirements
for unsolicited research proposals and summer hires. For instance in
the latter, an SF 171 is useless. Employees are Caltech employees,
contractors, and for the most part have similar responsibilities.
They offer an alternative to funding after other NASA Centers.

But why would you want to use RBI? RBI is an attempt to measure is some
combination of clutch hitting and power hitting. If you believe in
clutch hitting, then look at how the guy hit with RISP. If you want to
see how good of a slugger he is, then look at his slugging average.
In terms of evaluating players, RBI totals are better than nothing. But
why use them when so many better stats are out there?

More correctly: when people die, they cease to exist.
The idea I've gotten is that to christians, Hell is -- like Heaven --
afterlife; i.e, you don't cease to exist, but are subjected to eternal
torture (well, that's the orthodox idea anyway; "eternal death" if you
prefer that). Atheists don't believe in any sort of afterlife.
I think it's safe to say that Hell was never intended metaphorical. Certainly
not the equivalent of ceasing to exist. Some christian concepts are indeed
metaphors, but your idea of Hell is a 20th century interpretation. It is, of
course, nice to see that even christianity might evolve to fit the worldview
of modern age, but I fear the church will not accept it. Understandably, per-
haps, because if you accept that Hell is a metaphor, then you're one step
closer to turning God into a metaphor as well.

Excuse me but I do know what I safety is supposed to do. It's basic purpose -
not to let the gun fire until you're ready. Christ, I've known that since I
had my first Crosman air gun. You don't know me so don't make assumptions
about what I know and don't know. I do know that the Glock has multiple
safties from reports, looking at them at a gun shop, and friends who own one.
From the things I have read/heard Glocks are always knocked because of the
trigger safety. They are supposedly harder to learn to use properly. Every
article that I have read can't be wrong about the damn thing. And don't ask
me to quote my sources because I don't keep a ton of gun magazines and/or
rec.guns articles laying around. Boy, you can't make a simple statement on
here without someone getting right on your ass. No wonder why there are so
many problems in the world. Everyone takes everything just a little too
seriously. By the way, I'm not going to reply to any of this stuff anymore as
someone made the good point that this discussion is getting too close to r.g
(And yes I know that I had something to do with that).

Hi,
I've noticed that if you only save a model (with all your mapping planes
positioned carefully) to a .3DS file that when you reload it after restarting
3DS, they are given a default position and orientation. But if you save
to a .PRJ file their positions/orientation are preserved. Does anyone
know why this information is not stored in the .3DS file? Nothing is
explicitly said in the manual about saving texture rules in the .PRJ file.
I'd like to be able to read the texture rule information, does anyone have
the format for the .PRJ file?
Is the .CEL file format available from somewhere?

The DayStar PowerCache for the SE/30 replaces the CPU with an accelerated
CPU plus the powercache. This leavese the PDS slot open for a video card.
Currenty, DayStar does not have the '040 in this configuration, but it is
due out early next year. With their upgrade policy, you can get the '030
accelerator now, and when the '040 version becomes available, you get
credit
for the one you have.
I am running their 50 MHz version with FPU along with a Radius Precision
Color Pivot and I'm very satisfied.

The person who was telling me about the Septuagint version said that the Greeks
had a wonderful library in Alexandria that was full of manuscripts/scrolls
and that it was burned soon after the Septuagint version was translated
(perhaps to conceal some changes in the different versions, or perhaps just
as part of the typical burning of valuable things that occurs during changes
in power groups, he/I dunno).
Well, perhaps this is the answer then.

Carrying a pistol, loaded or unloaded, in the glove compartment, is
considered carrying a concealed weapon in Colorado and is illegal without
a concealed weapons permit. Unless the law has been changed recently,
carrying a weapon openly is legal in Colorado but concealing it is illegal.
I read a newspaper account last year where police stopped a car on a
traffic infraction and observed a .357 magnum revolver sitting on the
seat. The driver could not be cited for possessing or carrying the weapon
because it was not concealed. The article stated that if the gun had
been discovered in the glove box, it would have been considered a crime.

So in a few years there could be millions of these chips in the USA, all
networked together? Sounds like a good science fiction story - the government
wants to crack foreign DES (or whatever) messages, so they con the public into
individually buying all of the components and installing them. Soon the US
could be covered by the largest parallel computer in the world, built on top of

I don't like this comment about "Typical" thinking. You could state
your interpretation of Exodus without it. As I read Exodus I can see
a lot of killing there, which is painted by the author of the bible
in ideological/religious colors. The history in the desert can be seen
as an ethos of any nomadic people occupying a land. That's why I think
it is a great book with which descendants Arabs, Turks and Mongols can
unify as well.

This is the crux of the argument (to me at least). Both the
SDCN and the non-SDCN camps seem to agree on the fact that a catcher's
defense is basically nonmeasurable at present. You can talk about how
important calling a game is, or framing the pitches, or blocking balls
in the dirt. But there is little or no way to tell exactly how various
catcher's rank in "defense".
Looking at Lopez specifically; is there any reason to suspect
that he is a bad defensive catcher other then the fact that the Braves
(or the media) has labeled him a bad defensive catcher? As far as I
can tell he doesn't have any particular problem in his mechanics
(such as Sasser). He might be a little rough around the edges in blocking
the ball, or framing the pitch to get a good call but all he needs to
clear that up is playing and practice time. I can't see how repetitions
at AAA are any better then reps in the majors!
All we're left with is the calling the game aspect. Olsen and
Berryhill at always given credit for calling good games and helping
the pitchering staff. But this is a reputation that is given to almost
all veteran catchers. How is catching at AAA going to help Lopez learn
the major league pitching staff? The only way any catcher is going to
learn Tom Glavine's pitches is to catch Tom Glavine. Similarly, I wouldn't
be supprised if the pitcher's claimed to prefer pitching to Olsen over
pitching to Lopez because they are used to pitching to Olsen. But
given time they will say they are comfortable with Lopez.
Now, since Lopez can't learn how to handle the major league
pitcher's while he's in AAA and since he doesn't have any glaring
problem in his mechanics, what is he going to learn in AAA that he
can't learn just as well while in the majors?

I read about the development of EISA-2 some time ago but dismissed it
in light of the intense interest in VESA and PCI. However, I recently
was disheartened to hear that ISA cannot address more than 16mb of RAM,
a limit that too many of us will hit all too soon.
I recall that EISA-2 will support 64-bit transfer among other enhancements.
Is there such a standard being developed?

Well yes and no. The Federalist papers are propaganda and it is therefore
difficult to determine precisely what Maddison etc were up to from them. They
certainly emphasised a limited role for the federal government but this
was not necessarily their true position.
The Senate was less powerful than the House of Lords in the period in question.
The stripping of the powers of the House of Lords did not occur until 1914
and David Llloyd George's budget. Even despite this the House of Lords has
considerable power even today and is far from a rubber stamping body.
The system is meant to be slow to react, the problem is that it ended up
a bit too slow.
The Presiden't veto was meant to be entirely separate. Until Bush abused it
in a quite extraordinary manner it was used more in accord with the intent
of being a check on unreasonable legislation. The veto was clearly regarded
as a completely last gasp measure its use was meant to be restricted to
preventing the legislature interfering with the actions of the executive.

The latest Israeli "proposal", first proposed in February of 1992, contains
the following assumptions concerning the nature of any "interim status"
refering to the WB and Gaza, the Palestinians, implemented by negotiations.
It states that:
>Israel will remain the existing source of authority until "final status"
is agreed upon;
>Israel will negiotiate the delegation of power to the organs of the
Interim Self-Government Arrangements (ISGA);
>The ISGA will apply to the "Palestinian inhabitants of the territories"
under Israeli military administration. The arrangements will not have a
territorial application, nor will they apply to the Israeli population
of the territories or to the Palestinian inhabitants of Jerusalem;
>Residual powers not delegated under the ISGA will be reserved by Israel;
>Israelis will continue to live and settle in the territoriesd;
>Israel alone will have responsibility for security in all its aspects-
external, internal- and for the maintenance of public order;
>The organs of the ISGA will be of an administrative-functional nature;
>The exercise of powers under the ISGA will be subject to cooperation and
coordination with Israel.
>Israel will negotiate delegation of powers and responsibilities in the
areas of administration, justice, personnel, agriculture, education,
business, tourism, labor and social welfare, local police,
local transportation and communications, municipal affairs and religious
affairs.
Several question do come to mind concerning the "success" we all hope for
in the ongoing negotiation process. These arrangements certainly seem to
be essentially a rejection of any Palestinian "interim" self-control.
Without exposing itself to unwarranted risks and creating irresversible
vulnerability, can Israel reasonably put forward (at later points in the
negotiating process) more "relaxed" proposals for this"interim" period?
How should proposals (from either side) be altered to temper their
"maximalist" approaches as stated above? How can Israeli worries ,and
desire for some "interim control", be addressed while providing for a
very *real* interim Palestinian self-governing entity?

My girlfriend switched to gas-permeable hard lenses and no longer
needs a one year old soft contact lens cleaning unit. It's one of
those where you pop in the lens case filled with solution and the
lenses, press the lighted timer button and let it cook. No stains
(of course -- if you've owned one of these, you understand), maybe
a little dust on the cover.

I don't want to get into a semantic argument, but contrary to some other
postings "near UV light" /is/ "actual UV light." The "near" means that
it is close to the visible spectrum (i.e. of relatively long wavelength),
not that it is "nearly UV." (I'm sure you can figure out now just what
"far UV" is.)
Regular incandenscent flashlight bulbs emit tiny amounts of UV in the
near end of the spectrum, such that a filter can be used to remove the
visible light and thus create a weak UV source. Stronger sources are
going to require gas (probably mercury vapor) discharge tubes (such as
fluorescent tubes with UV phosphor). Be careful, though; strong UV
sources can cause physiological damage, especially to the eyes. The
shorter wavelengths are the most dangerous.
It wouldn't project a beam like a flashlight, but replacing the tubes
in a portable fluorescent lantern with UV tubes would be a relatively
cheap way to create a portable source. It would be bright enough to
be useful, but not dangerously so.

Yes.
Look up XV_DEPTH. Also, you might want to try using XView colormap segments
instead of Xlib for your colormap stuff. They will probably be easier
for you to use, and since you are using a TrueColor visual, you won't
be losing anything compared to straight Xlib.

Rears also vented
Then you shouldn't've done it. Try answering the damn question.
I am well aware of the fact that there was no mention of the SC
in there.
Well, my point was that the SC and the SHO both have very similar
characteristics (front and rear disks (ABS on the SHO?), high output
V6, 4-wheel independent suspension, very good aerodynamics, 3-point
harness, fat rubber, and 130mph+ top speed). If one of them is
up to standard (and I think the SC is), but the other isn't, then
why is that? No flamage, just curiousity.

Yeah, the "Feingold Diet" is a load of crap. Children diagnosed with ADD
who are placed on this diet show no improvement in their intellectual and
social skills, which in fact continue to decline. Of course, the parents
who are enthusiastic about this approach lap it up at the expense of their
children's development. So much for the value of "interesting anecdotal
results". People will believe anything if they want to.

Thanks for all the interest in this problem of mine. I don't think it
is a reaction to sugar or junk food per se since Kathryn has never shown
any signs of hyperactivity or changes in behavior in response to food.
She has always been very calm and dare I say, a neat, smart kid.
The fact that this happened while eating two sugar coated cereals made
by Kellog's makes me think she might be having an allergic reaction to
something in the coating or the cereals. Of the four of us in our
immediate family, Kathryn shows the least signs of the hay fever, running
nose, itchy eyes, etc. but we have a lot of allergies in our family history
including some weird food allergies - nuts, mushrooms.
Anyway, our next trip is to an endocrinologist to check out the body
chemistry. But so far, no more sugar coated cereals and no more seizures
either. Every day that goes by without one makes me heave a sigh of
relief. Thanks again.

This is becoming a tiresome statement. Coming from you it is
a definition, not an assertion:
Islam is good. Belief in Islam is good. Therefore, being a
believer in Islam can produce only good...because Islam is
good. Blah blah blah.
That's about as circular as it gets, and equally meaningless. To
say that something produces only good because it is only good that
it produces is nothing more than an unapplied definition. And
all you're application is saying that it's true if you really
believe it's true. That's silly.
Conversely, you say off-handedly that _anything_ can happen under
atheism. Again, just an offshoot of believe-it-and-it-becomes-true-
don't-believe-it-and-it-doesn't.
Like other religions I'm aquainted with, Islam teaches exclusion and
caste, and suggests harsh penalties for _behaviors_ that have no
logical call for punishment (certain limits on speech and sex, for
example). To me this is not good. I see much pain and suffering
without any justification, except for the _waving of the hand_ of
some inaccessible god.
By the by, you toss around the word knowledgable a bit carelessly.
For what is a _knowledgeable believer_ except a contradiction of
terms. I infer that you mean believer in terms of having faith.
And If you need knowledge to believe then faith has nothing
to do with it, does it?

I can buy a DES keysearch machine off the shelf now for approx $500K, but
it is not sold by that name. Go buy a circuit emulation machine (eg. Quickturn)
containing a bunch of FPGAs, (say 500 to 1000 3090's), and program each
to be a DES search engine. Lets say 500 chips, running at 10Mhz = 5G tests/sec.
Time is 14e6 sec max = 23 weeks, 12 weeks average. Can't wait that long?
Buy a bigger machine.

Does anyone out there use a SIGMA designs VIDEO/SOUND card ?
The model is called WIN-STORM-PC .
They also have one model the Legend-24lx
Any info on these like performance and compatibility,

"Deeply rooted rivalry?" Ahem, Jokerit have been around since 1967 and joined
the top flight only in the early '70s. Helsingfors IFK have been around since
1897 but fans only started taking hockey seriously in the 1960s so I think
you're exagerating here.
That's a rather bold claim, in the light of how successful the Canadian &
American Olympic teams have been . . . and they've had to play according to our
set of rules and on international ice. The 1992 Olympic teams contained about
as much talent as your average expansion team. Canada had Eric Lindros, Sean
Burke, Joe Juneau and Chris Kontos. Another four or five have been deep subs in
the NHL. As for the Yanks, Keith Tkachuk, Scott Lachance, Bret Hedican, Shawn
McEachern, Steve Heintze, Ted Donato, Joe Sacco and Bill Guerin have been
3rd/4th line players in the NHL, while Robb Stauber has done well for the
Kings in goal. Nothing more. In fact, I'm sure that an All-Star team assembled
from the best Finnish League teams would do no better in the NHL than Hartford
or Tampa Bay currently are doing.
---
But what happens if _all_ top-class Finnish & Swedish players gradually end up
with Helsinki & Stockholm as the North American-based ones gradually retire and
no Canadian/American team is allowed to draft new players from Scandinavia?
Here is what THE HOCKEY NEWS scouts think of our NHL-based players:
(28-30=superstar)
(23-27=star)
(18-22=NHL regular+)
(13-17=NHL regular)
( 8-12=role player)
FINLAND:
D-Jyrki Lumme.......20
D-Teppo Numminen....20
D-Peter Ahola.......13
C-Jari Kurri........25
C-Christian Ruuttu..16
R-Teemu Selanne.....27
L-Esa Tikkanen......20
(Obviously, Selanne's ratings would be higher today than they were in January)
SWEDEN:
D-Ulf Samuelsson....21
D-Fredrik Olausson..20
D-Niklas Lidstrom...18
D-Calle Johansson...18
D-Kjell Samuelsson..17
D-Tommy Sjodin......13
D-Tommy Albelin......7
C-Mats Sundin.......26
C-Thomas Steen......18
R-Thomas Sandstrom..22
R-Ulf Dahlen........18
R-Michael Nylander..13
L-Per-Erik Eklund...18
L-Johan Garpenlov...16
L-Mikael Andersson..15
L-Jan Erixon........14
This would be interesting. Clearly, Finland's top five players (Winnipeg's
Selanne & Numminen, Vancouver's Lumme, Los Angeles' Jari Kurri and New York's
Tikkanen) are right up there with any five-man unit Pittsburgh & co. have. But
I have my doubts about the home-based Finnish players - the national team did
well in the Canada Cup and World Championships largely due to the efforts of
Markus Ketterer (the goalie), 3-4 or the players listed above and luck. There's
presumably a lot of decent players in Finland that wouldn't be superstars at
the highest level but still valuable role players, however. My guess would be
that the Finnish Canada Cup team would be a .500 team in the NHL.
---
Sweden is easier to judge because they have more players in North America.
Their points total (16 players) is 274 - seven more than Ottawa's 22 top
players combined! If we estimate there are six more NHL regulars back home in
Sweden, an all-Swedish team would assemble about 350-360 skill points.
Deducting some points from Pittsburgh, NY Rangers and other teams that rely on
Swedish players, the Swedish team would finish in sixth place - about as high
as Boston, Vancouver, Calgary and Montreal on paper! So, the "dynasty" talk
isn't completely unfounded here. An all-Finnish/all-Swedish team might have an
advantage because the players would be playing at home half of the time,
won't have to adapt to a foreign country and a foreign language, and presumably
play the wide-open European variant of hockey rather than have to learn the
North American checking game. However, if free agency becomes a factor the top
Scandinavian players still might end up playing for large-market teams after a
couple of years the same way Edmonton's "dynasty" crumbled in the late '80s.
Some fringe players likely will be drafted by other NHL teams as having an
exclusive talent pool might be a bit unfair after all. I'd settle for a
compromise, prohibit all European teams from signing a North American during
the first two rounds but allow them to keep their top two players. After this,
the amateur draft should be open to anyone.

This was known long ago. Brain produces and uses some MSG naturally,
but not in doses it is served at some chinese places.
Having said that, i might add, that in MHO, MSG does not enhance
flavor enoughf for me to miss it. When I go to chinese places,
I order food without MSG. Goos places will do it for you.
A prerequisite for such a service would be a waiter, capable of

Two questions: When was this, and do you have the relevant
numbers. (Please note, this is *not* in any way an indication I don't
believe you or that you're not correct, but when the drop occured is
relevant.)
The primary objection (beyond ones based on the ideal of
RKBA that it is simply not something the government should do) is
that it makes guns a play-thing and tool of the rich and connected.
It discriminates against the poor.
Is self-defense considered appropriate, and if so, under what
conditions? (Are you allowed, for instance to get a gun for protection
if you're going to be carrying a very large sum of money on a regular
basis or have been threatened.)
This has been suggested in the U.S., and generally supported among
gun owners. What many object to is that many, if not most, proposals
contain a sort of "gotcha" clause which allows an arbitrary denial, even
if you qualify in every way.
At this point, it should be pointed out that in general
a driver's licence in the U.S. is for the most part nothing like its
European counterpart. I understand getting one is far more difficult
there than here. In the U.S. it's a joke.
But my usual objection is that you're discussing two different
things. For instance, in the U.S. a driver's license is a permit
to operate a motor vehicle on a public road. It is not necessary
to own one, or to operate it on private property. That is, the
ability to require driving permits is generally considered to arise
from the government's legitimate power to enact reasonable regulations
for behavior on public lands. A permit to own an automobile, for instance,
which is far closer an analogy, would be a much harder thing to get
past legally, since it wouldn't be based on making regulations on public
property, but in restricting activity on private property.
This varies *widely*. (One thing I think Europeans have
a difficult time with is that the U.S. has fifty unique jurisdictions,
where the laws from one state to another can be as radically different
as from one country in Europe to another).
Some places allow open carry of both guns and knives. Some allow
concealed. Some prohibit both, or allow one or the other. And it can
be either a state or local restriciton.
The question must be asked: Is the right of *this* individual
affecting the rights of this *other* individual. What we usually
get is that the rights of this *group* (meaning some individuals within
this group, here defined as "people who own guns,") are adversely affecting
the rights of some other group.
If for instance, "Bob" were using his gun to attack "Steve," you'd
have a point. But essentially what we're discussing is that becuase
some person who qualifies as a member of the group "people who own
guns" then some third person, perhaps in another *time zone* is told
that their being a member of that group is taking away somebody else's
rights. It's like trying to punish all newspapers for the libel commited
by one.
The issue is crime, violence, and murder. The question is to
what extent guns and gun legislation impact those.
Of course not. It would be nice if we didn't have to fear that
other people might get it into their twisted little minds to hurt us.
But currently we don't have that option. Nor do I expect we will.
No state does. In any case, there's a limit to which the state
may enforce it's "wisdom" on me. Freedom in general is an unwise
concept. If you pre-emptively restrict everything which might be
"unwise" then freedom becomes a meaningless concept.
I'll raise my hand against driver's licenses. As currently
implemented they're a waste of time and little more than revanue
generation for the State and ignored by a startling number of
drivers. It does not guarantee a level of skill any higher than is
necessary to get your car on the road and get yourself or somebody
else killed, or a knowledge of traffic laws beyond what any ten year
old will have picked up riding around in his parents car.
But, as I mentioned, they're two different things.

According to BBC Radio this morning, UK, Denmark, Portugal & a few
others have vetoed a proposal to limit EC-sold bikes to 100 BHP. The
reason is that such a limit is not supported by accident statistics - a
rare example of governmental wisdom. The limit has a five year
moratorium on it, and "specialist" manufacturers will be exempt anyway.
Any suspicion that this is a crafty trick to restrict that end of the
market in Europe to Triumph, Norton (who? :-)), BMW, Cagiva & Ducati is
the sort of dangerous rubbish which stalls GATT talks.

I think the other replies sum up the fact that you can place a hard drive
on its side. The point is this will only be sure to work on the 'new'
drives, namely 1/3 ht LPS drives that have a smaller platter and are also
more stable.
Why should I take the chance? Because I've been running a Maxtor 1/3 ht
120 LPS on both its side and flat for about a year and I've had no
problems with it. Period.

I appreciated the follow-ups and replies to my earlier query. One reply, which
I have lost, suggested several parishes in New York that have good Masses, one
of which was Corpus Christi in downtown Manhattan. By coincidence, last week's
_America_, the national Jesuit magazine, carried an interview with Fr. Myles
Bourke, Corpus Christi's pastor emeritus. Fr. Bourke also directed the NT
translation in the New American Bible. He noted "...certain practices have
been introduced into the Mass in such a manner that an atmosphere of banality,
and sometimes of hilarity, has trivialized the liturgy." I note that at my
parents' parish on Easter, helium filled balloons were distributed at the
offertory, apparently to aid in understanding the word "risen". This was not a
kiddie mass, either, but the well-attended 11:00 Mass.
I wanted to note the generous spirit behind the replies. This newsgroup as a
whole offers generally moderate (perhaps because it's moderated) conversation
on topics that often lead people to extreme behavior (including myself).
Sometimes people do go over the top, but the remarkable thing is how that is
the exception, I think. Benefits of the doubt are generally granted. It seems
so...Christian?

Seems that the Mile-Long Billboard and any other inflateble space
object/station or what ever have the same problems. (other than being a little
bit different than the "normal" space ideas, such as trusses and shuttles)
But also dag and such.. Why not combine the discussion of how and fesibility to
the same topic?
I personnelly liek the idea of a billboard in space. But problem. How do you
service it? fly a shuttle/DC-1 to near it and then dismount and "fly" to it?
Or what?? or havign a special docking section for shuttle/DC-1 docking?
Also what if the billboard springs a leak? Self sealing and such??
Just thinking (okay rambling)..
Also why must the now inflated billboard, not be covered in the inside by a
harder substance (such as a polymer or other agent) and then the now "hard"
billboard would be a now giant docking structure/space dock/station??

GEC/Plessey specify a series of FM demodulators (SL1454 etc) for use in
satellite TV receivers : 150 or 600MHz in, 10MHz of baseband video out.
I think there's also a related data slicer / clock recovery circuit intended
for use in DMAC decoders, though that isn't used in the most common
implementation - it may not be in volume production.
The most easily available components probably vary with local satellite
standards, and I think the european systems vary rather widely from those
in the US - so it may be worth investigating locally-available receiver
designs to find out what's in common use.

Well i'm not sure about the story nad it did seem biased. What
I disagree with is your statement that the U.S. Media is out to
ruin Israels reputation. That is rediculous. The U.S. media is
the most pro-israeli media in the world. Having lived in Europe
I realize that incidences such as the one described in the
letter have occured. The U.S. media as a whole seem to try to
ignore them. The U.S. is subsidizing Israels existance and the
Europeans are not (at least not to the same degree). So I think
that might be a reason they report more clearly on the
atrocities.
What is a shame is that in Austria, daily reports of
the inhuman acts commited by Israeli soldiers and the blessing
received from the Government makes some of the Holocaust guilt
go away. After all, look how the Jews are treating other races
when they got power. It is unfortunate.

51 Arrested for Defying Judge's Order at Abortion Protest Rally
The Miami Herald, April 11, 1993
Melbourne, Florida -- [...]
Circuit Judge Robert McGregor's order prohibits anti-abortion pickets
within 36 feet of the property line of Aware Woman Center for Choice.
Even across the street, they may not display pictures of dead fetuses
or sing or chant loud enough to be heard by patients inside the clinic.
The protesters say the ruling all but wiped out the First Amendment
to the Constitution.
``This is our sidewalk,'' said Joe Carroll, 33, a landscaper who
marched with his children, Mary Grace, 8, and John, 7.
``I am not a rescuer. I am not a trespasser. It's just that this is
my sidewalk. I am not really protesting abortion. We are protesting
denial of our rights of assembly, religion, speech. This judge is
trashing the Constitution.''
The children's grandmother led them away, sobbing, as Carroll and
his father were arrested.
Outside the clinic, Eleanor Smeal, president of the Washington,
D.C.-based Feminist Majority Foundation, called for the Florida
Legislature and Congress to pass laws as tough as the judge's
order, which covers only Brevard and Seminole counties.
``This cannot go on,'' she said. ``This is not freedom of speech,
this is total psychological warfare with violence. It is ridiculous
to have to ask clinics to go court-by-court . . . to get protection.''

-> Actually, the words "A well regulated Milita, being necessary to the

-> the sentence, the subject being 'the right', the verb 'shall'. It

-> a free state.
Yes, I agree the first half of the amendment does modify the noun
militia. But the difinition of modify that applies to how "well regulated"
modifies "militia" is:
to qualify or limit the meaning of. For example, "wet"
modifes "day" in the phrase "a wet day."
The amendment is similiar to the statement:
A wet day, being annoying, the right of the people to keep
and wear boots, shall not be infringed.
So how does a dry day pertain the right to use boots? Similiar,
what does the "unorganized militia" have to due with the right to
own guns?
-> The sentence [in the Second Amendment] doesn't restrict the right, or
-> state or imply possession of the right by anyone or anything other

-> bear arms is UNCONDITIONAL.
No not, unconditional, but "shall not be infringed". Infringed
is defined as:
To break or ignore the terms of or obligations (an oath,
an agreement, law, or the like); to disreguard; violate.
To go beyond the boundaries or limits; tresspass; encroach.
This definition implies the following of some form of existing
agreement. Laws and agreements are made in advance. Boundaries
or limits of behavior are set by society as a whole. The word
"unconditional" implies no agreements or all previous agreements
are off, which is the opposite.
The words used in the first amendment are much stronger, i.e.,
"congress shall make no law," are much stronger. They clearly
^^^^^^^^^^^
imply "unconditional." If the writers of the amendment, wanted
unconditional whay didn't they says, "congress shall make no
laws pertaining the the right of the people to keep and bear arms"?
The second amendment implies a sort contract between the people
the people and the state. The bigger part of the contract is
the people have the right to overthrew the government and its laws
at any time. To guarantee this right, the laws cannot stopped
the people from forming a "well regutaled militia." The duties
of a "well regulated militia" to the government are descussed in
Federalist No. 29. And the limits of of the governmental control
of the militia are descussed in Article I Section 8, Article II
Section 2, and the Second Amendment of the constitution.

Years ago I grabbed the following from the net - maybe from this
newsgroup. Does anyone know of a source for whether this is an
accurate quote? Thanks! Bartletts leaves out the homosexual lines,
but they were one of the groups the Nazis tried to exterminate.
===
In Germany, they first came for the communists,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a communist.
Then they came for the jews,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a jew.
Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist.
Then they came for the homosexuals, and I didn't speak up
because I wasn't a homosexual.
Then they came for the catholics, and I didn't speak up
because I was a protestant.
Then they came for me ---
but by that time there was no one left to speak up.

I shipped my K75S from Portland Oregon to Daytona for this years
bike week (I rode it back!). The company I used is The Federal Co's.
You can reach them at 1-800-747-4100 ex 214. You either have to be
a AMA member, or maybe it is just a discount for AMA, not sure.
(Call 1-800-AMA-JOIN to become an AMA member)
The shipping cost is based on the number of miles. It cost me about $500
for Portland to Orlando. $80 of that was insurance. All I had to do is
ride it to the shipping dock and siphon the gas out. I think they can
also pick up the bike from any business. The bike arrived on-time at
Orlando. All I had to do was adjust the mirrors and add gas. The bike
was in perfect shape!

: I
: |> Jim,
: |>
: |> I always thought that homophobe was only a word used at Act UP
: |> rallies, I didn't beleive real people used it. Let's see if we agree
: |> on the term's definition. A homophobe is one who actively and
: |> militantly attacks homosexuals because he is actually a latent
: |> homosexual who uses his hostility to conceal his true orientation.
: |> Since everyone who disapproves of or condemns homosexuality is a
: |> homophobe (your implication is clear), it must necessarily follow that
: |> all men are latent homosexuals or bisexual at the very least.
: |>
:
: Crap crap crap crap crap. A definition of any type of 'phobe comes from
: phobia = an irrational fear of. Hence a homophobe (not only in ACT UP meetings,
: the word is apparently in general use now. Or perhaps it isn't in the bible?
: Wouldst thou prefer if I were to communicate with thou in bilespeak?)
:
: Does an arachnophobe have an irrational fear of being a spider? Does an
: agoraphobe have an irrational fear of being a wide open space? Do you
: understand English?
:
: Obviously someone who has phobia will react to it. They will do their best
: to avoid it and if that is not possible they will either strike out or
: run away. Or do gaybashings occur because of natural processes? People
: who definately have homophobia will either run away from gay people or
: cause them (or themselves) violence.
:
Isn't that what I said ...
What are you taking issue with here, your remarks are merely
parenthetical to mine and add nothing useful.
: [...]
:
: |> It would seem odd if homosexuality had any evolutionary function
: |> (other than limiting population growth) since evolution only occurs
: |> when the members of one generation pass along their traits to
: |> subsequent generations. Homosexuality is an evolutionary deadend. If I
: |> take your usage of the term, homophobe, in the sense you seem to
: |> intend, then all men are really homosexual and evolution of our
: |> species at least, is going nowhere.
: |>
:
: So *every* time a man has sex with a woman they intend to produce children?
: Hmm...no wonder the world is overpopulated. Obviously you keep to the
: Monty Python song: "Every sperm is sacred". And if, as *you* say, it has
: a purpose as a means to limit population growth then it is, by your own
: arguement, natural.
Consider the context, I'm talking about an evolutionary function. One
of the most basic requirements of evolution is that members of a
species procreate, those who don't have no purpose in that context.
:
: |> Another point is that if the offspring of each generation is to
: |> survive, the participation of both parents is necessary - a family must
: |> exist, since homosexuals do not reproduce, they cannot constitute a
: |> family. Since the majority of humankind is part of a family,
: |> homosexuality is an evolutionary abberation, contrary to nature if you
: |> will.
: |>
:
: Well if that is true, by your own arguements homosexuals would have
: vanished *years* ago due to non-procreation. Also the parent from single
: parent families should put the babies out in the cold now, cos they must,
: by your arguement, die.
By your argument, homosexuality is genetically determined. As to your
second point, you prove again that you have no idea what context
means. I am talking about evolution, the preservation of the species,
the fundamental premise of the whole process.
:
: |> But it gets worse. Since the overwhelming majority of people actually
: |> -prefer- a heterosexual relationship, homosexuality is a social
: |> abberation as well. The homosexual eschews the biological imperative
: |> to reproduce and then the social imperative to form and participate in
: |> the most fundamental social element, the family. But wait, there's
: |> more.
: |>
:
: Read the above. I expect you to have at least ten children by now, with
: the family growing. These days sex is less to do with procreation (admittedly
: without it there would be no-one) but more to do with pleasure. In pre-pill
: and pre-condom days, if you had sex there was the chance of producing children.
: These days is just ain't true! People can decide whether or not to have
: children and when. Soon they will be able to choose it's sex &c (but that's
: another arguement...) so it's more of a "lifestyle" decision. Again by
: your arguement, since homosexuals can not (or choose not) to reproduce they must
: be akin to people who decide to have sex but not children. Both are
: as "unnatural" as each other.
Yet another non-sequitur. Sex is an evolutionary function that exists
for procreation, that it is also recreation is incidental. That
homosexuals don't procreate means that sex is -only- recreation and
nothing more; they serve no -evolutionary- purpose.
:
: |> Since homosexuals have come out the closet and have convinced some
: |> policy makers that they have civil rights, they are now claiming that
: |> their sexuality is a preference, a life-style, an orientation, a
: |> choice that should be protected by law. Now if homosexuality is a mere
: |> choice and if it is both contrary to nature and anti-social, then it
: |> is a perverse choice; they have even less credibility than before they
: |> became prominent.
: |>
:
: People are people are people. Who are you to tell anyone else how to live
: their life? Are you god(tm)? If so, fancy a date?
Here's pretty obvious dodge, do you really think you've said anything
or do you just feel obligated to respond to every statement? I am not
telling anyone anything, I am demonstrating that there are arguments
against the practice of homosexuality (providing it's a merely an
alternate lifestlye) that are not homophobic, that one can reasonably
call it perverse in a context even a atheist can understand. I realize
of course that this comes dangerously close to establishing a value,
and that atheists are compelled to object on that basis, but if you
are to be consistent, you have no case in this regard.
:
: |> To characterize any opposition to homosexuality as homophobic is to
: |> ignore some very compelling arguments against the legitimization of
: |> the homosexual "life-style". But since the charge is only intended to
: |> intimidate, it's really just demogoguery and not to be taken
: |> seriously. Fact is, Jim, there are far more persuasive arguments for
: |> suppressing homosexuality than those given, but consider this a start.
: |>
:
: Again crap. All your arguments are based on outdated ideals. Likewise the
: bible. Would any honest Christian condemn the ten generations spawned by
: a "bastard" to eternal damnation? Or someone who crushes his penis (either
: accidently or not..!). Both are in Deuteronomy.
I'm sure your comment pertains to something, but you've disguised it
so well I can't see what. Where did I mention ideals, out-dated or
otherwise? Your arguments are very reactionary; do you have anything
at all to contribute?
:
: |> As to why homosexuals should be excluded from participation in
: |> scouting, the reasons are the same as those used to restrict them from
: |> teaching; by their own logic, homosexuals are deviates, social and
: |> biological. Since any adult is a role model for a child, it is
: |> incumbent on the parent to ensure that the child be isolated from
: |> those who would do the child harm. In this case, harm means primarily
: |> social, though that could be extended easily enough.
: |>
: |>
:
: You show me *anyone* who has sex in a way that everyone would describe as
: normal, and will take of my hat (Puma baseball cap) to you. "One man's meat
: is another man's poison"!
:
What has this got to do with anything? Would you pick a single point
that you find offensive and explain your objections, I would really
like to believe that you can discuss this issue intelligibly.

You think that's bad? I'm in Bowling Green, OH, and we get ABC from
Toledo. Well, the cable co. decided to totally pre-empt the game (no tape
delay, no nothing) for a stupid telethon! Hockey is very big around here,
too. I had to listen to "my" Penguins win on my car radio out in the
parking lot. I can just be thankful for a strong radio because being 230
miles from Pittsburgh, the reception usually isn't good at all. I can't
believe I picked it up during the middle of the day.

Could it be because you're British, Phill, and living in Germany?
While the EC working rules are more liberal than what we have in
the 1989 US-Canada FTA, there's probably a law about that (having
health insurance coverage is a condition of my being down here,
for example).
You have mentioned this once before, yet both the NY Times profile on
the German sickness funds (late Jan.) and pamphlets that my girlfriend
gives to her language students from the German consulate both say that
it is "voluntary" (okay, there were quotation marks (-;) and that only
90% of the population is covered by the sickness funds (analogous to
our provincial health insurances, but not divided by province/state).
Another guy in health care policy says that the Turkish guest workers
aren't covered ... he's written to me a couple of times (he's not a
post-er). I'll ask him ...

Hi
I t was very nice out yesterday in the 'burgh, so i rode my bike
to my gynecologist appointment. When he came in to do the exam,
he noticed my helmet sitting on a chair. He got excited and picked it up
and started asking all sorts of questions about bikes and dealers in the
area and the MSF course. Apparently he rode a friends 125 for a
while years ago and recently the bug to ride caught him again.
Needless to say, I had never before talked about bikes so much in
such a position, if ya know what I mean :->

My 14-y-o son has the usual teenage spotty chin and greasy nose. I
bought him Clearasil face wash and ointment. I think that is probably
enough, along with the usual good diet. However, he is on at me to
get some product called Dalacin T, which used to be a
doctor's-prescription only treatment but is not available over the
chemist's counter. I have asked a couple of pharmacists who say
either his acne is not severe enough for Dalacin T, or that Clearasil
is OK. I had the odd spots as a teenager, nothing serious. His
father was the same, so I don't figure his acne is going to escalate
into something disfiguring. But I know kids are senstitive about
their appearance. I am wary because a neighbour's son had this wierd
malady that was eventually put down to an overdose of vitamin A from
acne treatment. I want to help - but with appropriate treatment.
My son also has some scaliness around the hairline on his scalp. Sort
of teenage cradle cap. Any pointers/advice on this? We have tried a
couple of anti dandruff shampoos and some of these are inclined to
make the condition worse, not better.
Shall I bury the kid till he's 21 :)

No, the neiseria meningococcus is one of the most common
forms of meningitis. It's the one that sometimes sweeps
schools or boot camp. It is contagious and kills by attacking
the covering of the brain, causing the blood vessels to thrombose
and the brain to swell up.
It is very treatable if caught in time. There isn't much time,
however. The rash is the tip off. Infants are very susceptible
to dying from bacterial meningitis. Any infant with a fever who
becomes stiff or lethargic needs to be rushed to a hospital where
a spinal tap will show if they have meningitis. Seizures can also
occur.
It can live in the throat of carriers. Don't worry, you won't get
it from them, especially if they took the medication.

If I understand your problem correctly, you want to have a way to send
exposures to your manager widget when your app-specific code draws xlib
graphics on the window.
It sounds like you might want to send an exposure using
XSendEvent and specifying a region. If you know the region you need to
send the exposure, generally you have the bounding rectangle of the objects,
you can use XCreateRegion to create a region, XUnionRectWithRegion to add the
new object polygons to the region, and then either use the region
to clip your GC for the redraw or use XRectInRegion to test which of your
other objects need to be redrawn. Keeping in mind that the stacking order
of overlapping objects affects how they look.
Hope it helps

Hey all:
I just moved to NYC and wondered if there are any electronics hackers
out there who could point me to places in NYC that sell individual
electronic components (switches, pots, transformers, caps,
transistors, etc.) "Radio Shack" doesn't count (they have almost no
selection, and their prices are outrageous!)
I have particular interest in audio components (amplifier IC's, power
MOSFETS, output transformers, tubes and tube sockets, pan pots,
faders, etc.)
I have checked out a lot of 48th street and Canal street so far with
no luck. Am I missing places, looking in the wrong place, or do I
have to resort to mail order?

I Love it how all of these people are "blaming" the Phillies success
on a weak division. Why don't we look at the record of the teams in
each division (READ: Inter-Divisional Play), we'll see that the East
is really kicking the shit out of the West. I know it is early, but
that is all we have to go on. Atlanta is just so strong with their
.188 BA, Cincinnati is 2-7 coming off a sweep at Veteran's Stadium in
Philadelphia, and Houston was swept in it's first three games by the
Phillies in the Astrodome. That, my Western Division friends, shows
that the three best teams in your division may not be as strong as you
think!!
