      Oneness in our true human context | Thomas Merton
      "Only when we see ourselves in our true human context, as members of a race which is intended to be one organism and "one body," will we begin to understand the positive importance not only of the successes but of the failures and accidents in our lives. My successes are not my own. The way to them was prepared by others. The fruit of my labors is not my own: for I am preparing the way for the achievements of another. Nor are my failures my own. They may spring from the failure of another, but they are also compensated for by another's achievement. Therefore the meaning of my life is not to be looked for merely in the sum total of my achievements. It is seen only in the complete integration of my achievements and failures with the achievements and failures of my own generation, and society

      Context: Our Favorite Fugitive. Part I
      PardonPower has been following some pretty interesting stories in recent weeks regarding fugitives from justice who have been caught or have turned themselves in to state officials and are now seeking clemency from their respective Governors. There is Jack Hazen, a Vietnam War veteran who robbed a 7-Eleven clerk at knife point and waited about 10 months before escaping from a prison work program. Three decades later, Hicks was caught in Las Vegas, living under the name "Charlie Free." And there is Russell Trawick, who skipped out on a 10-year sentence for stealing money orders and was also captured three decades later. Trawick now wants to be at home with his wife who is dying of cancer. Most recently, we have Susan LeFevre, arrested for cocaine trafficking as a 19-year old. LeFevre escape

      Context: Carter v. Clinton, Pot v. Kettle III
      When everyone in the world was piling on Bill Clinton for his notorious "last-minute" pardons - because it was easy enough to do - former President Jimmy Carter was right there in the crowd, throwing his own flames. Carter condemned Clinton for granting pardons late in the term, for doing so in the face of the opinions of law enforcement officials and for granting clemency in exchange for gifts and donations. However, in previous posts here and here, we have documented that Carter 1) had his own fourth year pardon surge, and 2) it included a spree in the last several weeks of his administration. Carter also 3) granted clemency over the protests of law enforcement officials and 4) was not blind to the financial support pardon applicants provided to his party.That all being said, what did Ji

      Context: Carter v. Clinton, Pot v. Kettle II
      In a previous post - here - we noted the clumsy hypocrisy that surrounded former President Jimmy Carter's criticism of Bill Clinton's controversial, late-term pardons, including that of Marc Rich. We noted that Carter granted most of his pardons in the fourth year of his term as well and that he also granted clemency to a wealthy individual, Frederic B. Ingram, in the face of explicit protests by Department of Justice officials. But Carter's hypocrisy did not simply stretch to a single clemency decision.Carter complained that a number of Clinton’s last-minute pardons were “quite questionable,” if not “disgraceful” because there was not “any doubt” that “some of the factors in [them] were attributable to large gifts.” Amazingly enough, the Associated Press propped up the c

      Carol Felsenthal, who is writing a book about Bill Clinton in the post-Clinton era, has written an editorial about the strained relationship between Clinton and fellow former president Jimmy Carter. Along the way she notes:... Jimmy Carter repaid Bill Clinton and then some by going his own way on foreign affairs in the 1990s; by publicly rebuking Clinton's morals when he was at his nadir; after Monica, after the Marc Rich pardon; in that schoolmarmish manner that only Carter can muster ... Felsenthal's book will be out in May, so she is concerned that she does not "step on" her own material. Not having the same concerns, I thought I would step a few places I suspect she will not be stepping at all: In a 2001 speech at Georgia Southwestern State University, Carter called Clinton’s pardon

Hoping to seize upon history's quirk, Vice-President Cheney said this in a recent interview:The president had to go up -- chose to go up before the Judiciary Committee of the House and testify in order to put down the rumors that somehow there had been a deal between he and President Nixon, that if he would pardon Nixon, then he would get to be president himself.

      Web Dynpro ABAP Filling the Context

If you know beforehand that the context in your application is only filled once and not invalidated afterwards, this method is appropriate for filling the context. You can also use this method if you want to associate the data update with an action and transfer the update to the corresponding event handler. The method WDDOINIT should only be used to fill those context nodes when it is known that they must be filled. The order of calls for filling the c

      Objects in Context
      Google Tech Talks January, 17 2008 ABSTRACT In the task of visual object categorization, semantic context can play the very important role of reducing ambiguity in objects' visual appearance. In this work we propose to incorporate semantic object context as a post-processing step into any off-the-shelf object categorization model. Using a conditional random field (CRF) framework, our approach maximizes object label agreement according to contextual relevance. We compare two sources of context: one learned from training data and another queried from Google Sets. The overall performance of the proposed framework is evaluated on the PASCAL and MSRC datasets. Our findings conclude that incorporating context into object categorization greatly improves categorization accuracy. Speaker: Andre

      In reading some other websites, I found this commentary on another blog that reminds me that I need to be careful when cherry picking bible verses to post. I need to be careful about context. From GoingBrokeWithJesus.com:What happens when people try to build a Christian doctrine of money? They usually start by quoting Bible verses, without putting them into a larger context. This is the basic problem with many Bible study guides. They quote Bible verses out of context.As a theological seminary student in my first preaching course, I learned an adage that has stayed with me ever since. “A text without a context is a pretext.” Often, paying attention to the origin of a word gives insight into its meaning. In Latin, the word, “text,” refers to what is woven. A pretext is a fringe or

      Eltife Says TV Station Took His Condom Comments Out Of Context
      A new Tyler-based blog is reporting that comments by State Senator Kevin Eltife (R-Tyler) about condom distribution by the University of Texas at Tyler’s University Health Clinic were taken out of context by ultra-conservative television station KLTV last month. Blogger Ramsey Williams reports this following a call from Eltife after Williams earlier published a post about the story: Well an interesting thing happened after I posted the blog links about the recent story that KLTV ran concerning condoms at UT Tyler; I got a call from none other than State Senator Kevin Eltife. We had a good conversation, apparently he has a google alert set up to let him know when his name goes out over the wire (actually that sounds like a neat feature I’ll have to check it out now) he saw my posts and that I lived here in Tyler and made it a point to call me and tell his side. Essentially, KLTV took his statements out of context, and edited the interview to play up the controversy angle. Basi

      Google Context Ads Is Off Its Rocker

After publishing though I looked down at the AdSense block that follows each of my postings and… what!? Seriously, “Anti Monkey Butt Powder“? What the heck does that have to do with ANYTHING on my blog. Secondly, I don’t even want to know what that actually means, let alone where you’d end up if you click on it. Geez.

      “tell me about a moment, a song and what it meant to you”  Covert Curiosity Song: The Iraq War by The Black Angels [Passover, 2006] Context: I was late in picking up the Black Angels’ latest album Passover, even though they are local and I try to hear any new local production as soon as possible. I listened through most of it in the car on my way home from the record store, and left it in the cd player for a few days to give it a closer inspection as time allowed. Result: Around the same time I received the horrible news that a close friend had been killed by a roadside bomb in Iraq. He was another casualty of the war that had already taken the life of thousands of American soldiers and countless Iraqi citizens. I was angry. I wanted this war to be over, right that second. The Black Angels disc was still in the cd player, but it had gone silent. Not long after I realized this, a hidden track at the end of the album called “The Iraq War” started playing, and it

      Fox News Channel commentator, Bill O'Reilly, is using a spin-off of one of the most common defenses used in the workplace by Whites, who’ve said something that they’ve been told is racist, offensive, stereotypical, demeaning, etc.Discussing his recent dinner with Rev. Al Sharpton at the Harlem restaurant Sylvia's, Bill O'Reilly said that he "couldn't get over the fact that there was no difference between Sylvia's restaurant and any other restaurant in New York City. I mean, it was exactly the same, even though it's run by blacks, [and has a] primarily black patronship." O'Reilly added: "There wasn't one person in Sylvia's who was screaming, 'M-Fer, I want more iced tea.'" He also said that going to Sylvia’s was like going to an Italian restaurant in White suburban America.Based on those remarks, it’s obvious what mindset Bill O’Reilly had and has about Blacks. He obviously questions our level of civility, table etiquette, social skills and upbringing

      Content vs. Context
      We’ve heard it said time and again that content is still king, and with the sheer amount of information available on the Internet a content management system is essential in dealing with what would otherwise be an overwhelming task of keeping up to date. With Rob being something of an RSS evangelist I found myself setup with dozens of feeds within a day of being at Quirk. This number has since continued to grow and the amount of time and attention my feed-reader gets is bordering on being decidedly unhealthy. The fact is that I wouldn’t have a chance of covering a fraction of the reading material that I now get through were it not for my RSS. It’s a tool that I can’t see anyone who’s serious on keeping up to date on trends getting by without (be their focus of business online or off). Including an RSS button on a blog is generally accepted as keeping Web2.0 savvy. That being said I do believe that there are some cases in which RSS functionality would ac

      The Context of Clutch-ness
      Buster Olney left out some critical information when he wrote about how valuable Alex Rodriguez has been for the Yankees in 2007: Twenty of Alex Rodriguez’s 48 homers have either put the Yankees ahead or tied the game. Last year, just 13 of his homers put the Yankees ahead or tied the game. Wow, sure sounds like A-Rod has been a lot more clutch this season than he was in 2006. Or has he? See, what Buster didn’t mention is the fact that A-Rod only hit 35 all of last year; while he has hit more “clutch” homers this year, he has also hit quite a few more homers, period. The percentage of his home runs which resulted in a tie or a Yankee lead has risen from 37.1% to 41.7%. Statistically significant? I think not. Incidentally, it would be interesting to know the average percentage of game-tying or lead-changing homers in MLB. If you, dear reader, know, or care to find out, please pass that information along. It could be that A-Rod’s accumulated “important” homers do

When a publisher decides to place the Kontera html code on he's site or blog, he earnes money every time a visitor clicks on the respective ad. Also, advertisers reach a targeted audience, to which they can offer their services or sell their products.

      The Voting Machine Malfunction at Ames Straw Poll — in Context
      Not surprisingly, the delayed results at yesterday’s Ames straw poll in Iowa were caused by a voting machine malfunction. Mary Tiffany, a spokeswoman for the Republican Party of Iowa, said officials were forced to count ballots by hand after one of the voting machines malfunctioned while tabulating. Optical scan ballots – not punch cards – are being used in this non-binding straw poll. Of course, the machines used to count the vote weres owned by Diebold. Apparently, some Ron Paul supporters had concerns about Diebold’s role about a month ago. The Ron Paul group is very concerned that the machines will be gamed in order to make their candidate’s showing less than what it should be and in order to inflate the results for those whom the Republican National Committee (RNC) want to have a good showing. Some Paul supporters are now threatening to file a federal lawsuit over the matter. Here are some details of the malfunction by way of the Des Moines Register, and t

      The Astrophysical Context of Life
      The Astrophysical Context of Life National Academy Press| ISBN 0309096278 | 2005-06-30 | 79 pages In 1997, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) formed the National Astrobiology Institute to coordinate and fund research into the origins, distribution, and fate of life in the universe. A 2002 NRC study of that program, “Life in the Universe: An Assessment of U.S. and International Programs in Astrobiology”, raised a number of concerns about the Astrobiology program. In particular, it concluded that areas of astrophysics related to the astronomical environment in which life arose on earth were not well represented in the program. In response to that finding, the Space Studies Board requested the original study committee, the Committee on the Origins and Evolution of Life, to examine ways to augment and integrate astronomy and astrophysics into the Astrobiology program.

      Racial Slur Offends, No Matter the Context
      Montgomery County (MD) educators are replacing a lesson that called for students to read about and discuss a racial epithet against African Americans as a precursor to reading "To Kill a Mockingbird" in ninth-grade English classes.The lesson, called "Questionable Words," focused on two reading selections, an essay and a poem, each dealing with the epithet and how the author was hurt by its use. Curriculum officials reexamined the lesson after an African American student told the school board in the fall that the class had upset her."What we heard from enough community members and some teachers is that it's sensitive, it's emotionally charged," said Betsy Brown, curriculum director for Montgomery schools. "And if we have a lesson that could be misused and cause real hurt to a few or to a whole classroom of kids, then maybe we need to change it."The complaint from Maya Jean-Baptiste, a 15-year-old at Quince Orchard High School in Gaithersburg, marks a departure from the usual protest o

      Consumer Generated Media 2.0: users create context
      We may currently be within the Web 2.0 landscape, but the advertising that frames it up is still reminiscent of a 1.0 era. Contextual advertising remains infamous for not receiving enough human touch. Consumer Generated Media, as adverters would like to define it, continues to assume that the 'consumer' wants to actively create propaganda for a brand when it's not an organic/natural occurence. MySpace, which has millions of active users and even more ads, has yet to utilize the potential of a user-chosen advertising system. Contextual and CGM advertising seem to be on the edge of easily becoming a 2.0 platform in which users are able to create their own context (as they already do), including the leaderboards and skyscrapers that frame it up.Flip.com is taking the step forward and letting teen girls have control over its advertising:"The intriguing aspect here is the control users will have over the ads and the form some ads will take.

Why didn't he report the bug and get it fixed so he can use Stat Traq on his site. The only way bugs are found and fixed is for users to report them without giving negative comments against the plugin.
