"ANACORTES, Wash. (NNS) -- The first-of-class oceanographic research vessel R/V Neil Armstrong (AGOR 27), successfully completed acceptance trials Aug. 7 the Navy reported Aug. 27.

 

Neil Armstrong is a modern mono-hull research vessel based on commercial design, capable of integrated, interdisciplinary, general purpose oceanographic research in coastal and deep ocean areas.

The Navy's Board of Inspection and Survey (INSURV) found the ship to be well-built and inspection-ready. The trials evaluated the ship's major systems and equipment to include demonstrations of the ship's main propulsion system, dynamic positioning system, navigation, cranes and winches, and communication systems.

These trials are the final major milestone prior to delivering Neil Armstrong," said Mike Kosar, program manager for the Support Ships, Boats and Craft office within the Program Executive Office, Ships. "Neil Armstrong performed very well during these trials, especially for a first of class vessel. The results of these tests and the outstanding fit, finish and quality of the vessel, stand as a testament to the preparation and effort of our entire shipbuilding team. It reflects the exceptionalism of AGOR 27's namesake, Neil Armstrong."

The Navy christened the Auxiliary General Oceanographic Research (AGOR) R/V Neil Armstrong (AGOR 27) during a ceremony March 29, 2014 at the Port of Anacortes Transit Shed in Anacortes, Washington. The Neil Armstrong-class of research vessels are modern research vessels based on a commercial design, capable of integrated, interdisciplinary, general purpose oceanographic research in coastal and deep ocean areas. R/V Neil Armstrong, the first in its class, is being constructed by Dakota Creek Industries Inc.

Additionally, the Neil Armstrong class will feature a modern suite of oceanographic equipment, state of the art acoustic equipment capable of mapping the deepest parts of the oceans, advanced over-the-side handling gear to deploy and retrieve scientific instruments, emissions controls for stack gasses, and new information technology tools both for monitoring shipboard systems and for communicating with land-based sites worldwide. Enhanced modular onboard laboratories and extensive science payload capacity will provide the ships with the flexibility to meet a wide variety of oceanographic research challenges in the coming decades. R/V Neil Armstrong will be U.S. flagged, manned by a commercial crew, and will be operated by Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution under a contract with the U.S. government.

….”I am ready,” said the emperor. “Does not my suit fit me marvellously?” Then he turned once more to the looking-glass, that people should think he admired his garments.

The chamberlains, who were to carry the train, stretched their hands to the ground as if they lifted up a train, and pretended to hold something in their hands; they did not like people to know that they could not see anything.

The emperor marched in the procession under the beautiful canopy, and all who saw him in the street and out of the windows exclaimed: “Indeed, the emperor’s new suit is incomparable! What a long train he has! How well it fits him!” Nobody wished to let others know he saw nothing, for then he would have been unfit for his office or too stupid. Never emperor’s clothes were more admired.

“But he has nothing on at all,” said a little child at last. “Good heavens! listen to the voice of an innocent child,” said the father, and one whispered to the other what the child had said. “But he has nothing on at all,” cried at last the whole people. That made a deep impression upon the emperor, for it seemed to him that they were right; but he thought to himself, “Now I must bear up to the end.” And the chamberlains walked with still greater dignity, as if they carried the train which did not exist.

Ask “What makes us human?” and a range of responses is guaranteed from materialist and nonmaterialist scientist and religious thinker alike. From self-awareness to free moral agency, from conscience to the capacity to imagine, such traits are put forward as distinguishing us from nonhuman species. There’s also the capacity for spoken language, which some say is the most distinctive difference, even innate. On a more troubling level, some might list the deliberate decision not to reproduce ourselves, and more darkly still, the willing invention of weapons that assure mutual mass destruction, threatening extinction of the species.

This picture was shot early in the morning on a ghat along river Ganga in Varanasi (Benaras) a few weeks ago.

This man is having an haircut by a young haidresser who belongs to the many street jobs in the city.

I liked the lines provided by the steps nearby and the colours which are corresponding in rhythm.

It reminds the American flag.

... the photo was taken on aug.10 in a very hot day..I hope it could warm a little these cold days, waiting for spring...

Dedicated to all my friends living in cold places...

A Nihang Singh adorning a tradiional "Dastar Boonga" (fortified turban) strikes a pose. His turban is embelished with 'chakars' (quoits), 'aadh chand' (half-moon cresent representing Shiva), and various other weapons secured with a 'tora' (woven steel wire).

 

Photographed at Talwandi, Punjab.

Two years ago I published a graphic showing the favicons of places that I'd recently visited on the internet. I thought I'd take some time (a few hours actually) this afternoon to revisit and refresh that graphic. In order to see this graphic best I'd recommend clicking through the image to Flickr and then clicking on the magnifying glass above the graphic on Flickr to view full size. Best viewed large I suppose as they say.

 

If you'd like to add a note with a hyperlink to a url for any site feel free. :)

 

The image above represents only some of the websites that I've visited in the past 2 weeks. The list does not include everywhere I've been on the internet. I've only chosen to share sites in this graphic that have favicons that pop up when you visit them. Probably about half of the sites that I visit (my own included) don't have favicons. The above graphic contains 330 different internet sites that I've visited.

 

Some stats on my internet activity over the course of the past 2 weeks. From May 15 until today I have visited 12,601 pages on the internet on my primary laptop computer (MacBook Pro). I have visited more pages than this because this is not my only computer. In addition to my primary MacBook Pro, I have three other PCs that I use regularly to surf the internet. I estimate that I probably load a little over 1,000 internet pages a day.

 

The number one site that I've visited over the past 2 weeks has been FriendFeed. The number 2 site I've visited over the past 2 weeks has been flickr. These two sites represent over half of my internet activity over the past 2 weeks.

 

Below is a list of sites that are included in this graphic.

“Tea is more than an idealization of the form of drinking, it is a religion of the art of life.”

(From the “Book of Tea” by Kakuzo Okakura)

 

"The oldest living city in the world".

This picture was shot near main ghat along the Ganges in Varanasi (Benaras) from a kind of platform where I often come as this place allows to have a great view of the sacred river.

The Chai wallah (tea maker) was facing me and tried to strick a few poses pretending that he didn't see my camera. By chance his attention was kept by some people dancing on a boat nearby so I took this candid picture.

Chai wallahs are everywhere in India keeping the memory of the time going by...

 

Chai is the word used for tea in Asia, North and East Africa and Eastern Europe.

In a typical South Asian household chai is prepared by boiling loose leaf tea in a pot with milk and water. Then various spices and/or sweetener may also be added according personal preference.

What many English speakers tend to think of as chai is actually known as masala chai (spiced tea).

From the "Mirror Stage" (Lacan) to the reconquer of Self. The Mirror is not You, but it can be your naricissism or your depression, the place where you are alienated from yourself.

Broke the Mirror!!

 

In Lacan's reformulation of Sigmund Freud's theories of mental life, the mirror stage constitutes a critical phase in the development of the ego. Drawing on work in physiology and animal psychology, Lacan proposes that human infants pass through a stage in which an external image of the body (reflected in a mirror, or represented to the infant through the mother or primary caregiver) produces a psychic response that gives rise to the mental representation of an "I". The infant identifies with the image, which serves as a gestalt of the infant's emerging perceptions of selfhood, but because the image of a unified body does not correspond with the underdeveloped infant's physical vulnerability and weakness, this imago is established as an Ideal-I toward which the subject will perpetually strive throughout his or her life.

 

For Lacan, the mirror stage establishes the ego as fundamentally dependent upon external objects, on an other. As the so-called "individual" matures and enters into social relations through language, this "other" will be elaborated within social and linguistic frameworks that will give each subject's personality (and his or her neuroses and other psychic disturbances) its particular characteristics.

 

Lacan’s ideas about the formation of the "I" developed over time in conjunction with his other elaborations of Freudian theory. He presented a paper on the mirror stage on August 3, 1936, at a conference of the International Psychoanalytical Association in Marienbad.(It is to this conference that Lacan is referring in the first sentence of the essay). Thirteen years later, on July 17, 1949, at a conference of the International Psychoanalytic Congress in Zurich, Lacan delivered another version of the mirror stage paper that later in the same year appeared in print in the Revue Francais de Psychanalyse. The essay was reprinted in the French publication of Ecrits in 1966. Jean Roussel prepared the first translation into English, which appeared in New Left Review 51 (September/October 1968): 63-77. This publication in English is significant, as it contributed to the introduction of Lacanian theory, and specifically the model of the mirror stage, into leftist intellectual circles in Britain at the time when cultural studies was emerging as a field. A new English translation by Alan Sheridan heads Ecrits: A Selection, which was published in 1977.

Do you know whois that man ?!!

     

He is

( Edgar Allan Poe )..

 

Edgar Allan Poe is one of the important, significant writers in America because he contributed the Gothic Elements i'm gonna explain you later WHAT is the Gothic elemnts :D

 

as we have seen that many of the writers were influenced by his poems , tales ,

and all of his works such as , Emily Dicknson , Walt witman and more who i can't really count.so, what are the Gothic elemnts which Edgar belives in ?!

thay are :

 

1 - exotic setting

2 - mysterious atmosphere

3 - weird happening

    

Edgar is the writer who play with our senses throughout his novels, tales, poems , and every single work plays with our senses by fulling it with the horror sounds, by the emothions which helps us to feel the story itself.in addition to that , he was really against the Transidental Movement ( which is a philosophy about life or nature ) thus, he believes that Romance doesn't mean love between tow people but its an imagination. Edgar is really great person and you can feel that by reading only one of his works such as my best ( the tell tale heart ) and ( the raven ) and emm ( the back cat ).

  

finally ,

of course you guys feel that he is nothing but he isn't. it's enough that he created things help us to feel the tale, or the story and to move our emothings it actually impacts us . and its more than enough that we as a recent generation knows his name by saying he is the one who created the Gothic elemnt ..

 

here i brought some of the links to help you read more about him .. if you are intrested lol <- i know you are =Pp

 

   

and this are some videos =D

 

 

 

 

    

thats all,

and i hope you like his works as i do .. XD

My friends ZeeAnna! and Burnt Umber tipped me off today to a new search engine operating out there called Imagelogr. Only it's not like your traditional image search engine. Most image search engines like Google or Bing include a link back to the images that they search from the web.

 

Not so with Imagelogr.

 

Imagelogr claims to be scraping the entire "free web" and seems to have hit Flickr especially hard, copying full-sized images of yours and mine to their own servers where they are hosting them without any attribution or links back to the original image in violation of all available licenses on Flickr. If people on Imagelogr want to they can manipulate your images, rotate them, see them at different sizes up to 300% and even download the images with a download button directly from the site.

 

Want to know if they've stolen some of your flickr Images? Just go here and type in your flickr name in the search box and see if any come back.

 

I don't know much about the new search engine. There is not much information to identify who is actually behind it. According to their masked domain registation, the site, currently registered with godaddy, was set up there in April of 2010. The site currently boasts to be tracking over 24 *billion* (yes, billion with a B) images. If their numbers are true, this may in fact be the largest image grab in the history of Flickr.

 

At the site under a "legal" link there is a Terms of Service page that reads "coming soon." Under their contact link they provide you the email address: imagelogr [at] gmail [dot] com. I emailed them to ask what is up with their view of image licensing and will report back if I get an answer back from them.

 

Under their main page of the site they have a site description that reads as follows: "Imagelogr.com is an image & picture search engine. We try to index pretty much every picture & image currently available on the free internet. With our powerful search engine finding these images should be fairly easy. We also offer a few image manipulation tools to stand out from the competition."

 

I think it's a bit misleading for them to try and tie their search engine with the "free" internet. It might give people the impression that any images that are on their site can be used for free, which is definitely not the case. People who erroneously assume that they can use the images on this site may end up being liable for copyright infringement if they do.

 

Interestingly enough, it looks like they are even indexing a bunch of Getty Images photographs, which I guarantee you won't last long. In fact it appears that while the thumbnail images for Getty are still there, if you click through to the larger sized images many are already showing as not available on the site.

 

Some users at Flickr started complaining about this in a thread in the Flickr Help Forum, but in usual Flickr fashion they censored the thread by locking it down. Wouldn't want it getting out there now that there was a wholesale rip off of flickr images going on. Thanks alot Flickr!

 

Update: It looks like Imagelogr is rapidly trying to do damage control. Since I wrote this post they have added a disclaimer on images that they may be copyrighted as well as added a source link to images and a link to their site for "image removal" which reads as follows:

 

"If you are the owner of copyrighted content that is displayed on Imagelogr.com, we will gladly remove those images.

 

Please email us the exact links of the image pages where your content is being displayed.

 

Make sure you send us the links to the image page, NOT the search pages.

 

GOOD EXAMPLE: www.imagelogr.com/image/nUE0pQbiY2Mupz00YaA0LKEcLl5zoTywn...

BAD EXAMPLE: www.imagelogr.com/images.php?q=new+york

 

Email your removal URL's to imagelogr [at] gmail [dot] com and we will remove them within 48 hours."

 

I'm not sure why they'd think that giving people a way to have their images removed absolves them from image theft, but we'll see what happens. They seem to be adapting quickly.

 

 

Update #2: Imagelogr is now offline, if you go to their url it is replaced with the following message: "Imagelogr.com is currently offline as we are improving the website. Due to copyright issues we are now changing some stuff around to make people happy. Please check back soon."

 

Update #3: On Slashdot here.

 

Update #4: domainlogr has responded with the following explanation:

 

"What Happened To Imagelogr.com?

 

If you are wondering why you are being redirected to domainlogr.com instead of landing on imagelogr.com, this page is for you.

 

We recently launched a little site called imagelogr.com using the Yahoo! BOSS api. It was a little image search engine that was far from finished. The site was just online, didn't have any traffic, and we didn't actually host any images. The whole site was maybe 50kb of php files :)

 

Because the 'back-to-source' links were still missing, someone started a post on Flickr claiming we stole billions of images. The counter on our frontpage stating (We are now indexing 25.000.000.00 images) was just a number made up by us, and actually didn't mean much. It was a guess number of how many images Yahoo! would have in its database approximately.

 

When the news started to spread that we posted full size images without a 'back-to-source' link, we quickly took action and added 2 source links on each page and added a copyright notice stating that he image shown might be copyrighted. After the news was posted on Slashdot and countless other blog and news sites, the emails with complains were coming in rapidly.

 

In the end we just decided to take the website offline.

 

This whole Imagelogr project was a non-profit website, we did not display a single ad on the site. We simply tried to make a better images search engine than the currently available ones.

 

For now the website will remain offline, and it is our plan to turn it into a Google Images like website (with frames linking to the original source) over the next couple of days. Until that time, we are forwarding all traffic to this domain."
