Created by Julia Kristeva in 2008, the Prix Simone de Beauvoir for the freedom of women was presented Thursday to the Russian novelist Ludmila Ulitskaya, whose work shows "a keen sense of justice and democracy "according to organizers. Author of novels, short stories and plays, Ludmila Ulitskaya has won numerous literary awards in Europe. In 1996, she received the Prix Médicis abroad for his novel "Sonietchkan. By rewarding a woman of letters, the jury wanted to "focus on women's creativity, which manifests itself and asserts empowerment, "said jury president, Julia Kristeva. Aged 67 years, Ludmila Ulitskaya is known to take a stand against the Russian government. The difficulty of being a woman in Russia irrigates his work and women remain the main figures his novels. Featuring 30,000 euros, the price had been created to mark the 100th anniversary of the birth of Simone de Beauvoir. For the first edition, the jury chose to reward the Somali-born Dutch politician Ayaan Hirsi and Bangladeshi writer Taslima Nasreen, both threatened with death because of their denunciations of Women in Islamic world. In 2009 the prize was awarded to the group "One Million Signatures" for the repeal of discriminatory laws against women in Iran. In 2010, two committed to the struggle of women in China, Ai Xiaoming and Guo Jianmei, received the award.

How To Send New Born Baby Msg.
λύω, λύσω, ἔλυσα, λέλυκα, λέλυμαι, ἐλύθην
I absolutely love the Wiktionary . I tend to think that this project Wikipedian with the most potential. Finally, when you master the syntax , of course. Thanks to him, I wrote about the Indo-European of Sumerian and others.
A great idea of the project is that it is possible to create individual items for each of the forms of a word (plural, feminine, conjugations, etc.).. It was not long ago, I told myself that if I had had this while I was learning Greek, I would have liked. (Yes, I studied ancient Greek in my early youth. I even opted to bowl - with optional computer, a combination unprecedented in my academy that year there - and the examiner was so happy to see mathematicians learn the language he has left us choose our text, and brief. Finally, I enjoyed myself.)
is that conjugations in ancient Greek, it can be tricky. Already, there's the odd modes as the optative , strange times like aorist , voices such as unusual voice average, two people duel, etc.. Basically, we must consider the root of the verb, placed behind a sign for the time, place before a split if the past, even before placing an augment if time and secondary flank an ending for the person at the end. And to consider possible changes phonetic radicals that can change along the way, and all those sorts of things.
Here, take for example the verb λύω , 'untie' (the basic example since its radical λύ is completely regular and does not form a phonetic modifications zarbie). His more-than-perfect indicative medio-passive in the 1 st person plural becomes ἐλελύμεθα. Easy. If it amuses you, you can take a look at the cool table conjugation tense. And tell yourself that it's a simple verb.
Now, I do not know if you noticed, but a simple verb easily holds 300 different forms. So 300 potential articles on Wiktionary. If it does not explode it with the English is to gun down. :) Good
, spas all that, but I will have already the past tense conjugations. Already, I'm sure the aorist indicative passive βάλλω ("start") is not indicated as ἐβάλην here, but ἐβλήθην. There's a job.

Visibility
I guess everyone is aware of the hay is around Wikileaks recently. Overall, if I got it, the general idea, it sounds like we already knew all that and so it was clear proof that nothing should be published. Leaving aside the inconsistency of this view, we may well say that if Assange had merely do a job standard journalist (publish anything without thinking about the health or life of anyone, but do on paper, roughly), we would rather applauded. I guess the problem is wide contraption: hundreds of thousands of documents easily accessible.
It's funny, but it reminded me this morning to cases that have come to Wikipedia. Business a bit like (legal ones there; although at the moment, nothing has yet been ruled on the legality of Wikileaks leaks).
In March 2009, the world finds the publication of the flowchart of DCRI the article on WP. Bistro quickly notice that if this organization is covered by solicitor-defense, complete information is available simply by looking at the Gazette. Perfectly free. Wikipedia is content just to increase visibility.
In July 2009, we learn Wikipedia that reproduces 10 original plates of the Rorschach test with standard answers. Of course, the plates are in the public domain. Obviously, these answers are everywhere. Again, Wikipedia increases visibility. Hence ire of some psychiatrists.
In August 2010, concluding The Mousetrap which is discussed. Christie's play based on the idea that we should not disclose who the murderer is (in my opinion, the success of the play is mainly due to the feeling we should have after its representation to be part of a small community, responsible and informed). Inevitably, WP told precisely who is the murderer. Whatever it is perfectly possible with a simple Google to find it without even going through the encyclopedia: Wikipedia gives again too much about visibility.
I guess before we could afford to give free access to this information, it was impossible to publish (it was possible but too expensive, not easy enough read, etc..) . In short, we had the right, except that in practice it was not entitled. Now it is easy to use that right. And as of right, it answers "but before it was not like that, it breaks with tradition. "Yep, as you had rights unnecessary, it would ... Expect, under the false pretense of morality, what you Rabiot.

5 Month Old Has A Chest Cough
Sony, KDDI, Toppan Printing and the Asahi Shimbun, strong signal for the electronic ink
Sony was the forerunner of devices based on electronic ink in 2004, with free, one of the most successful readers today. Replaceable battery, speaker, keyboard, dictionary, retrieving RSS feeds, rich format (we published a model of the newspaper Les Echos that include audio podcasts in one). Was it a way to assess, with a real product, the impact on publishing models and economics of this revolution that promised to be printed? A form of testing the adoption or rejection of a book that was more conventional paper, features and interfaces? Possible, Sony applied a similar approach for the Aibo.
But although the display was impressive, it was clear to him that the hands that the device was not used to much free content specially formatted, simply catalog of books available. The Japanese market while benefiting from more practical tools, mobile phones and the Nintendo DS in mind, the freedom was removed, leaving Sony's U.S. structure to develop its own product.
Things have changed. The "paper" mail has made considerable progress in Pearl's latest incarnation: display speed, possibility of writing and highlighting, price (one reader is now worth 100 euros against 300 at the time). The object itself has become attractive, durable, more convenient and sometimes a tablet that classic book. Especially, the contents are available in abundance in a composition acceptable, and without too many constraints to load.
Japan is taking advantage of any technology where relevant. It became the case of electronic ink for the book, and Sony is partnering with the operator KDDI, Toppan Printing Co printer and the first Japanese daily Asahi Shimbun to start a publishing and distribution around its latest range of readers.

First Revolution of print since its invention, step
After his "paper" Pearl e-Ink technology demonstrates Triton for color, and its first partners with Epson for the display controller and writing. The availability of the devices is scheduled for next March.
With this last step of the support, although the contrast is still not optimum, it will now understand how create, edit, and what techniques invented for that to be meaningful this first revolution of print since its invention.

color E-Ink Pearl - inks from the Renaissance to book new generation
To pass the alchemy of modern book in 1501, creators, writers and artists of all stripes, became the first printer, had to fight hard. All, and since then, went there for their inks, paper, typography, punches, technical layout, content carefully chosen to quit or oral gesture and join the adventure instead of (or at the same time ) that the painting, engraving, analog or digital.
Today, e-paper Pearl using the latest Sony and Kindle is a key step towards the new generation of book. Contrast sufficiently increased display speed authorizing the expansion and optimization of images, handwritten annotation edit, erase, shareable, natural gesture interface to the iPhone up to A5 size which can read most books scanned without transformation.
Alchemy is further, as this video shows an illustration of the collections of the BnF:

Textuality
It is sometimes argued that we live in a society of the image, which has always seemed dubious. I have the impression of a company's text, which is sometimes shown in the picture. Newspapers TV, for example, do me the effect of radio news bulletins with illustrations above: the unused capacity of the medium seem as if we did not know what to do with all that screen and we would just flatten things that move on the words. Similarly, I am surprised when we speak of cinema as a filmed theater where the acting and screenplay are all, while the staging and editing are just a gimmick (or, worse an effect as if such a thing could not be serious). Certainly, what I said was nothing new, I am aware.
Wikipedia is an online text. It is because of technical limitations inherent in the wiki. It is also because the image of the Encyclopedia of Epinal guess the write words. It still is, In my opinion, because Wikipedia is an offshoot of the early days of the Web, where sites were described in the text. For all these reasons, sound, image, video, animation, music, diagrams, graphs, curves, diagrams, partitions, all are merely illustrations: a product is never built around them.
However, it is possible to convey a real message encyclopedic outside pure text as an example of figurative map Minard shows. But I am guilty. In this masterpiece of synthetic representation, I laid an infamous text summary . There is no exception.

Administrator, or why not submit
The friend Pierrot just compile some arguments against the past months election as a director and it's worth his weight in peanut. It seems that now, to get elected, he started to Wikipedia fault with the mentality of a politician whose goal is to get elected. In short, it's crazy (but fun).
I have often wondered why I've never presented as admin. The answer is simple: given the way I play to Wikipedia, I have no need of tools related to this function. Therefore, I never wanted disturbing the site with a bid.
Sometimes though, I toyed with the idea of presenting a candidature can, just to see. I'm not passed the act because the joke was not appreciated at its true value (which include myself would have done for the souk, the process seems to be taken too seriously). But if I introduced myself, I would have a lot of votes against, and some would probably be very insulting. It's not very serious, because I have accumulated over the years a lot of hostility (I confess I do not understand most, but it does not bother me more than that).
In reality, so I can not introduce myself as a director, what are the possible votes against people who matter to me. There, yes, it would do me harm. Sometimes it is better to remain ignorant.

Make A Miniature Canoe
Singavi
Wikipedia has a list of countries by highest point . Despite its title, it is not limited to simple country but also includes various areas, particularly the various French possessions overseas. The advantage of such a list is of course limited, but can not have the seriousness and importance of a true subject of Fond Encyclopedic, and the anecdotal is not to banish our lives. However, it should be done properly.
Opposite the entrance Wallis and Futuna , the table shows: Mount Singavi, 765 m. Out of curiosity, I went to check on Geoportal ; Wallis and Futuna is a community of overseas French, IGN publishes online maps. Of these, the site is explicit: the culmination of the archipelago is on the island of Futuna and is the Mount Puke, by about 520 m. Not only is this not the same name, but 30% difference in altitude, it is not negligible. I still tend to trust IGN. Where does this mount Singavi?
The French list is a translation of its English equivalent , on which my Singavi has a dedicated section. A brief search allows you to trace the origin of the English list World Factbook of the CIA, a compilation of statistics on various countries around the world courtesy of American intelligence. Interesting, but still be taken lightly ... The question now: Where does she CIA Singavi this mountain? It exists on the kingdom of Futuna Sigave . Is this related? Mystery ... I do not know
what is the moral of this history, except that he must be wary of even the most official sources. I do not make me worry too much about the actual height of Mount Puke because I tend to trust IGN. However, it casts doubt on the remaining entries. And all for something as simple and familiar as the highlights of the country ...

Right now I have a lot of work. However, to amuse myself between two deliveries buggy software, j'ébauche the various mansions of the Place des Vosges . And when I'm sick of mansions of 17 th century , I try something else.
Yesterday I've seen happen in my Twitter feed a link to this . It is the brief presentation of a photo series by Jan Kempenaers on monuments of Yugoslavia from 1950 to 1970. Widgets monumental rough concrete. Futurism. Of Brutalism. In the limit of science fiction.
Obviously, I liked it and I tried to learn more. A little research can find the authors' names and location of works (for example, there yes, it is in Croatian). Hence the following action: creating the articles on Wikipedia. For now, I have sketched in broad strokes three: Makedonium Krusevo to Macedonia, the memorial Jasenovac camp in Croatia and monument to the Revolution of Podgarić, also in Croatia. Interestingly, it is possible to link these articles to the rest of Wikipedia (by placing images, creating wikilink with interwiki links, etc..) Indicates that the project is beginning to have a good general coverage. Afterwards, I'm not talking about the Slavic language, so it's quite difficult to put some flesh on my skeletons articles. Hopefully it gives some ideas.
Even after one million articles, there are still issues to dig.

Next step: 220! Fight the
So, the million.
It was a bit long, but we're getting there, the millionth record on the French Wikipedia. Of course, it will put four more years as in:, but the result is there.
Now, two things will happen.
The first is the one millionth article would not be good enough. Not worthy of an encyclopedia. Not worthy of a cultural project. Probably neither made, nor to do. In addition, it will probably draft a dirty rotten. (FYI, on the one millionth in: station was a . Not even a station known simply suburban station in Scotland. And the original article was a dirty blank.)
The second: now the project is completed, there will be no more subject, we have all finished, all locks, all written and it will focus on exists. Increase the number of ADQ tiny laughable, for example. Or delete all those files without interest that distort the project. Back to basics, whatever. (Obviously, in: has two en: articles and a half more, but it's not really articles, so it has not.)
short, you guessed it, the move to seven digits will be the 'opportunity for all the mourners to cry more. Then, of course, one could say it's a fucking brilliant project with which we enjoy ourselves too well, we screwed up the pile to all detractors, it works with the fire of God and that the more one has yet reached the limits of the contraption, but it would probably be too optimistic. And optimism, everyone will tell you, is for morons, because everything is always doomed to failure and if it is not perfect from the outset, it is useless to try.
Personally, I will not sulk my pleasure. I am glad that this project, in which I am still invested in over six years, continues to grow. Go
, since There is, here is one of those unlikely items can not be found on Wikipedia: the bakery-pastry Beaumarchais. Yes, it's just a Parisian bakery. But she is listed as historical monuments. To arrive at the creation of the article, it took a project amount, we grope to find how to write on topics like this, you realize you can lay as articles this, that someone take a picture, feels the urge to speak and put behind his keyboard. Complex logistics. Admittedly, this is probably not the most important item in the world: so what?
So, the million.

Then, of course, one could say it's a fucking brilliant project with which we enjoy ourselves too well, we screwed up the pile to all detractors, it works with the fire of God and that the more one has yet reached the limits of the contraption, but it would probably be too optimistic. And optimism, everyone will tell you, is for morons, because everything is always doomed to failure and if it is not perfect from the outset, it is useless to try.
Personally, I will not sulk my pleasure. I am glad that this project, in which I am still invested in over six years, continues to grow. Go

Homemade Shikakai Or Amla Oil
For Sakineh
Dear Sakineh
Know this, Paris is mobilizing for you with 100 more cities worldwide.
Need I tell you? Simone de Beauvoir, if she was still alive, would have reacted like all of us with the strongest indignation to denounce the cruel fate that we want you to suffer.
; Who would have thought 40 years ago when the MLF showed for the first time in France, in 2010 a woman could still be sentenced to be stoned and that "cultural relativism", the "return of religion" would take precedence over the universality of rights?
If we talk about those early days is that by coincidence, this week, in a single location in Paris, will succeed and two sobering events of the fragility of gains in women's rights. On August 26 the Feminist activists are preparing to celebrate the anniversary of the first event in the MLF by renaming the Place du Trocadero "instead of the right of women and men." Two days later, Saturday, August 28 at 12pm on the same square-aptly renamed - will be the rally that is organized to support you (1).
While world leaders are mobilizing to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, we want our presence that day to remind them that you expect in the death row for several years, a performance by your stoning. You're also not the only condemned: by the news of women's rights activists in Iran, at least a dozen other women in prison awaiting the death penalty barbaric. Inside the country, feminists have launched a campaign in 2006 against stoning: Stop Stoning Forever.
If the chancellery and the United Nations to show whether discrete vis-à-vis your case is that in their eyes, between nuclear and a case of " compassion humanitarian "issues are not comparable. Why irritate Tehran on a matter of domestic policy, so we expect him to be more accommodating and respectful of the resolutions of the Security Council?
Those who hold the reins of power prefer to rely, for this type of subject, associations or intellectuals. There have been, among others, President of Brazil, a friend of Tehran, who, driven by feminist groups, has dared to do their spokesman, while noting that he respected the laws of other countries, He said he was ready "if it could serve" to welcome you home. Altogether this little snag was blamed on the side "sentimental" character, and we tried not to talk about it.
Sakineh Dear, we must keep hope for you and what you represent.
Maybe mobilization triggered by torture to you, now imposed, will understand international diplomacy that humanity will come out of obscurantism as they stoned human beings. Maybe too friendly countries of Iran, those who see its technological achievements in Tehran proof of its development, they realized that the development of a nation is far more respect for the right people. Perhaps, finally, the UN will they decide to place conditions on the admission of countries in certain instances such as the Committee on the Status of Women, where Iran has just made its entry "by acclamation "as the saying goes.
Sakineh Courage, you're not alone!

feminism RENDEZVOUS SOLIDARITY WITH THE IRANIAN WOMEN
Yesterday and today:
feminism appointment of solidarity
Chahla Chafiq, writer [2]
Women's struggle against the Iranian Islamic regime of Iran has been sustained since its first steps, by French feminists, in March 1979, a committee chaired by Simone de Beauvoir has sent a delegation to Iran to say loud and clear its support for large demonstrations by women against wearing the veil imposed in the workplace by Khomeini came to power for barely a month. Defying the highest religious authority, thousands of women are immediately took to the streets shouting: "We do not have a revolution to go back!". Troops with hezbollah (name born in Iran) that threatened by treating henchmen abroad, they replied: "Neither sail nor thrashing!", "Neither East nor West, freedom is universal! "
This struggle and other struggles of Iranian women against the establishment of Khomeini regime have been repressed, and the veil is now mandatory in all public spaces. Masses of Hezbollah fighters were mobilized to ensure the punishment against those who did not accept their orders. Hezbollah women participated actively in this repression. The Islamists promised them an emancipation "authentic" that would offer a "worthy place" in a "just and chaste," erected by Islamic law.
Three decades later, the Iranian experience teaches us the reality of this project: a society cruelly marked by injustice, corruption and despair. Last year, the protests of millions of women and men in the streets of the capital and major cities of Iran expressed a popular revolt that was crushed in blood, torture and prison, as all protests in recent decades . This revolt was a symbol: the beautiful face Neda, 24 years old student, killed in a peaceful protest by plainclothes officers.
Today, the figure of Sakineh, sentenced to stoning for adultery, which reflects the cruelty (and skewness) of patriarchal control imposed by Islam to women. You should know that Iranian men are entitled to multiple wives and have, for polygamy and temporary marriage, a certain degree of sexual freedom (of course forbidden to women). Similarly, a man sentenced to stoning for adultery is buried to the waist, which gives it a opportunity to disengage and escape death. - In this case, the law provides for the release of the convicted. The women are buried up to his neck : nothing will allow them to escape the barbarism of the stone throwers.
Sakineh The tragedy reflects the social drama, cultural and political life of this country who feel inferior women, while their presence strongly social and cultural challenges the dominant order. Thus, the feminist movement saw an exceptional growth, despite a constant and relentless repression. The campaign "One Million signatures for the abolition of discriminatory laws against women "has mobilized a large number of young women and men: their slogan" Change for Equality "reaffirms the universality of women's rights. Their voices join together those women who shouted their revolt in the streets of Tehran thirty years ago.
Iranian women's struggle for freedom and equality, connects generations of yesterday and today, the Iranian feminism and French feminism. And it is with enthusiasm that the Iranian activists do-s-hosted the Prix Simone de Beauvoir for women's freedom they have been awarded in 2009.
It should also be recalled that a campaign against stoning was launched in 2006 in Iran by feminists. The activists took to the court record evidence, and denounced the plight of convicted-e-s. Iranian feminists in exile were also mobilized for the cause.
What international support is growing to prevent the killing of Mohammadi Sakineh Ashtiani and all persons threatened in their lives today through the application of Sharia.
That this support continues to defend the struggle of Iranian women and men in favor of liberty, equality and democracy.

I Need To Buy A Crane
Powah! [Who?]
I was read a text OWNI on absence of French intellectuals on the Internet (well, more accurately, their refusal to be on the internet). Well, OK, but who cares even French intellectuals Paris Germano-Pratini (I have more appropriate adjective, Saint-Germain-des-Pres is back as a regular neighborhood of Paris for decades) ?
I guess it must be quite difficult to design for some of my readers, but I live in a world totally désintellectualisé, where institutions are absent. Here, the state is an abstraction to reduce its interfaces administrative, governments have much impact if I lived on the edge of the desert of the Tartars and the speeches made by persons authorized me to speak as much as those of Tubular Brainers in the Ark Captain Blood [1] .
In text quoted by OWNI ticket, I found the following quote, which I find quite descriptive: "The digital culture is born gifted engineers but rustics (incidentally: Non not read The Princess of Cleves , they are the perfect embodiment of this despised by middle class our intellectuals). "
I already expressed a few months ago on my own hardiness and my own condition son of middle class without past or culture. It happens that I have not read The Princess of Cleves (by pure chance, I read other books, and then my sister told me it was super boring) and I ' have an engineering degree (which I also never really used). I grew up in classes of son and daughters of teachers fully dedicated to entry into the Grandes Ecoles. Likely that my adult behavior is a reaction to feeling of alienation that I have not failed to experience adolescence.
Still, the standard French intellectual discourse completely passes me over the head. Certainly, it bothers me a bit (which would not be annoyed when he made it clear that it must be part of a culture while knowing he will be permanently excluded? [2] ), but it is still very Benin. I know that real life is not there. That when France will disappear completely from the world thought [3] , it will not be very important, that France was just a pawn promoted briefly as Queen before to be removed from the board. All this will change nothing for me nor for the tens of millions of my fellow citizens.
The only thing I know is that everybody loves your culture, but nobody will ever defend it for you. It's not even a question of protection of cultural exception, imperialism or anything. In short, the anti-Internet hysteria, not only next to the plate, it is also the best way to disappear completely. Perhaps it is the objective? The death wish is not something abstract.
for me, Wikipedia is just my way of make me live my culture (a culture diverse, which even contains real pieces of field). This is not the only one, but it is the subject of my blog, so I will only talk about that. It also gives me the gratifying feeling to oppose the establishment without throwing stones. The awful truth is that I do not care about promoting the Culture and Memory or I do not know what other big word with a capital letter at the beginning. If I Fight the powah is a byproduct, a consequence attached a bonus gift, something cool and more.
Despite this, despite my past, despite my origins, despite my environment, I have no particular justification for contributing to Wikipedia, except that it's fun. It seems that it is wrong and it's one more example of political abdication of people my age. Uh, yes, so what?
was a completely disjointed blog, written over a dozen hours in the middle of lots of other things. The only thing I wanted to say is: I n'intellectualise not Wikipedia. There.

Despite my low-anarchism of chronic my-face contempt mocking the authority and government, I recognize that it is sometimes useful to have standards that have legal value, history that is able to understand all of us, the League of people living with each other . However, it stops there. In particular, I avoid using that term as a synonym for "true."
On Wikipedia, we have a gizmo called neutral point of view "that nobody ever understands. The idea is to include all relevant perspectives. In practice, it's totally intuitive-cons (the human brain must be wired together). To compensate, I guess we always try to give a higher viewpoint by calling it "true" because if it's true, other views are false and should not be mentioned (a tactic absurd when you look at the concept of NPOV, but overall it works). And what better than the official view of the higher court to return all the opponents on the ropes?
I suspect that behind this search for the official, hiding a real desire for authority and a real fear of heights. The authority to make sure someone can confirm that what they tell you is just (or, conversely, you can say we lie to you), fear of vacuum to avoid thinking that he might not have a definitive answer. In both cases, it assumes that there is somewhere a place where the rows are all true versions of everything. Despite everything we tried to make you think, this is not correct.
Wikipedia is not an administration or a registrar of state decisions. The official view is probably relevant, but it is rare that it is the only one. Let some of the official rock anyhow.

The trick formidable with Wikipedia is that you end up placing {{}} refnec around his head. Sometimes we want to also place on Wikipedia, which is less formidable nonetheless.
There is a medallion [1] inlaid front of Notre-Dame de Paris, simply titled " zero the roads of France." Any French truth knows that from this point we measure the road distance in France. Moreover, article tells us: This is the "official starting point of roads from Paris." It's Official , So it's necessarily true [2] .

Cultural Considerations
It's a story I read in The Way of the World , the essential story drift Nicolas Bouvier. Cowherd Vernet and arrive somewhere near the Persian (I can not remember the country, but it was in that corner there, nearly 3000 terminals). There, in a godforsaken hole, they fall on a p'tite locality where an American NGO files enough to build a school. Cultural problem: Americans believe that the premises will build the school. The premises are only taking the stuff for their personal constructions. Both approaches are equally valid as the other. They might as well succeed fail. Just two different conceptions of life. Misunderstanding.
It is tasteful, in our countries, to deny Americans a common culture (some Americans deny themselves and I guess we've seen fish denying the existence of water). Admittedly, this is a great country little homogeneous, but some trends are found everywhere. If you want schematically a caricatured, the American belief in individual initiative and believes that each brings its own contribution to the Company. The idea: things happen because we decide to move yourself, without waiting for others. A sort of fundamental optimism, which could be mistaken for naivete, a way to count only on ourselves, assimilated often selfishness. It is always difficult to understand a different culture through his own eyes.
All this, I guess you all know (after all, in the formatted version, the Nike slogan says nothing else: it speaks directly to every American, it remains impossible to translate for others). Of course, all this does not exclude the naivete, selfishness, wickedness or stupidity, pure and simple, but it's the same for everyone. I'm just trying to define a state of mind. We will not land sliding: This mindset is what allows it to succeed in the States ? Besides, they really succeed? I do not know (and I'm typing).
Can we understand the approach Wikipedian if we neglect this aspect of culture? Wikipedia is everyone who comes to bring what he believes is best on its own initiative, without consulting anyone before. Everything is based on faith in hopeless "it'll work, just put it there." This is probably one of the projects most authentically American, the kind of thing that could never be carried out elsewhere, because elsewhere, it can not, it does not, we don ' will not believe or you do not even think. The problem
of all this: is it that Wikipedia can seriously work outside the U.S.? Not clear, in my opinion.

3D isometric and geolocation
I am a big fan of geotagging on Wikipedia, it is no longer a mystery. I found a new way to enjoy the thing. Certainly it is not new and some of you have already noticed, but I will file it anyway.
As you already know (or not), Maps Bing, a competitor of Google Maps , has a likeable feature: over some urban places, it is possible to select "Satellite" and "Air" for a vision corner 3D isometric . It's fun and convenient to both: we clearly see the elevations better this way than with a simple aerial.
Now take an item or category that contains elements LBS sufficiently close, in an area covered by this projection. For example, the churches of Venice . Place the {{}} KML above (which extracts contact articles and creates a beautiful KML output) and give it all to eat Bing Maps. Switch to 3D isometric and enjoy the scenery. In the example of the churches of Venice, you can view each one in context. And I must say that the result rips serious race.

Fujitsu is preparing to release a second generation of its A4 FLEPia devices based on electronic ink more varied and faster, but the price is still high.

This paper has color characteristics of tactile interfaces.

The idea behind the draft is that Wikipedia is a wiki: if the subject has potential, although there will be someone better. Since the project began, the drafts have bad press. In general, they were criticized for not being full-fledged articles, which I think is an argument completely misses the point. Another argument is to assert that the drafts are coming to eat the bread of Real Goods. It seems to me quite misleading: up Now there is no evidence that creating a draft prevents another reason to be improved. Certainly, there is no evidence to show that this is not the case, but given the history of Wikipedia, we can think of blanks are abundant, not damaging.
short, if the drafts do not detract from the project, there is really no other answer to this question, "Why not?" Wikipedia, after all, is based on the spirit initiative and empowerment: we played as desired. Grand
All this is good fun, but your draft, you want someone edits it behind you [4] .

If you're doing well, you get an article a long drinking, still lying by the appearance of a summary. Look, here's what I did on the Notre-Dame-des-Ardilliers Miquelon , a building that I know neither Eve nor Adam drafting cost me five minutes any break.
Make no mistake: in essence, your article did not contain more information than if you had just written that the apple was a fruit. The only difference is that you have placed big signs "Edit Here".

Petit, large 1: Create a nice draft with three sticks and a piece of string
Here's a method I use to create a draft drinking:
- Place components:
- banner draft [5] ;
- infobox, if possible
- introductory sentence
- one or two paragraphs under "Annexes", with its internal and external links
- headband portal
- categories
- The introductory phrase should be short and focus immediately on. Avoid convolutions. Do not quote the accessory, it would lose content for the rest.
- Try to fill up the infobox. If it is only two lines, turn the.
- just be sure to squeeze at least a paragraph. At worst, use "Description". Do not be afraid to describe, even if you do not need to write a single line. For example, if you talk to a church, describe its general structure. This is not IT, but stay strictly on the rails of the hardline description. Interpret anything. Do not run even remotely appreciative.
- Article Link to what you can [6] : it will be more accessible, the better the chances of falling over.
- Feel free to create categories to bring out the section of his anonymity.

Grand z, a small 30: Now What?
Make no mistake: in essence, your article did not contain more information than if you had just written that the apple was a fruit. The only difference is that you have placed big signs "Edit Here".
Notes:
- ↑ It makes me think that does not even draft for Nyorōn Churuya -san ...
- ↑ That of Trizek, I believe.
- ↑ It seems that there are considerations entities involved to determine what needs to be done and what should not be. Finally, I was told that it was not morality, just the obvious, but it does not make me, me.
- ↑ I'm assuming you're not opposed to editing your draft, which seems like a meaningful position.
- ↑ That makes sense, but it's always better to remember.
- ↑ Avoid spam, anyway: it is frowned upon.

How Read Janam Kundali
Edit
xkcd codified the concept of wiki walk : looking for an intelligent subject on Wikipedia and you end up with twenty tabs open on the completely frivolous stuff.
In my case, I do not see that. I edit too. Sometimes my original editions are completely random.
Sunday evening, I was looking for a gadget to do in order to put off going to bed. I went to see the base Palissy, the great French collection of everything and anything vaguely heritage. I open the search form and, moved by a sudden inspiration, I wonder how it has sundials in the stomach, the base (after all, there's always list of sundials in Paris to complete). So I go "dial" in the "object type" and I click on the lexicon, because the base Palissy, you never know in what the widgets are stored. A collection of various terms happens in the figure ("Cache-heater", "lock table", "frame with bells, etc..). "Sundial" is in the lot. Cool.
Ah yes, but.
Just above, I came across the word 'moon dial.
Hey, what's that?
one answer on the base: one moon dial on a house in Varennes-sur-Loire . No more explanation than the mere existence of my stuff. I type the term into Google, got no really satisfactory answer, goes to English Moondial falls on a television series described on the English WP. The presence of parentheses makes me think that there is homonymy in the air. Indeed, there is an article " Moondial .
So a moon dial is like a sundial, but with the moon. Basically, it does not work only around the full moon and we must introduce a ton of adjustments to account for the apparent motion of the star. Photo of the beginning of the article is a moon dial to 1733, painted on a wall Queen's College, Cambridge. I have no idea how it works, there's lines everywhere and a table fix for an entire lunar cycle, that is to say, even when the moon is new, which is totally absurd. In short, the moon dial, it seems überg33k. So I create " moon dial" on en:.
And then I tell myself: "Poulpy, my friend, a pseudo-scientific BITONIO dating from the eighteenth century e , you do not believe can be traced elsewhere?" Because I know I absolutely correct, I open the Trévoux on Wikisource and search entry " Dial. I get:
"Dial lunar, or moon, one that indicates the time of the night by means of the moonlight."
My intuition is good, but I stay on my hunger. I need some ammunition larger. Capilotractage of the compet '. Types capable of holding forth on anything at all for pages and pages. I open the Encyclopedia in " Sundial . I'm not disappointed.
"Draw a moon dial. Suppose, for example, that it requires a moon dial horisontal: describe first a sundial horisontal: raise then both AB and CD perpendicular (Fig. 19.) Row of twelve hours; & dividing the GF interval into twelve equal parts, by the different points division, draw parallel lines. Now if we intended the first line CD on the day of the new moon, and the second day when the moon reaches the meridian, an hour later than the sun, and at length the line AB last day of full moon: the intersections of these lines with the hourly and give points, by which we will draw a curved line 12 12, which will be the meridian of the moon will be determined later in the same way other hour lines, 11, 22, 33, & c. which will cut the hours corresponding solar & respectively, or by the shadow of the moon, which will lay the style of the dial. It will erase the hour lines of the sundial, as well as perpendicular, where they shot hours lunar & GF we divide the interval by other parallel lines in fifteen equal parts, which respond to the fifteen days between the new & full moon. Finally we write these lines from the different days of the age of the moon. "
" Now, knowing a calendar age of the moon, the intersection of the line of age of the moon, with the hourly and the moon, will give the time of night. "
Immediately, it is clearer! Finally, clarity full moon, of course.
What is the moral of this story?

What is the moral of this story?
- the eighteenth e had not ThinkGeek , but we knew anyway machin produce unnecessary and complicated.
- Whatever happens, encyclopedias are written by big hairy geeks.
- I do not understand what happened to the boards of the Encyclopedia dedicated to sundials.
- Palissy wallows like a sea lion stuffed with vodka on a waxed linoleum when I ask him to remove me from his list of sundials. I did well to focus on lunar dials.
- I propose to launch the competition for the best photo of a moon dial period, taken at the nominal operation of the machine.

Peeing Alot And Tired
Wikipedia is well known, has articles on everything. Of course, those who despair that the list of Pokemon should not be placed on a par with theoretical physics. But since nobody listens, so good.
Etdoncques, Wikipedia also has articles on iceberg. Not the phenomenon, attention (although it also has its own article): Iceberg individual.
For example, B-15 detached from Antarctica in 2000 and still has not completely melted. B-17B or who walked not far from Australia. T-3 or (the poetic names of icebergs is admirable), used as a research station for over 30 years, with a runway and everything.
It is something wonderful to be included in an encyclopedia of ice blocks sterile inexorably disappear. On the other hand, the entire contents will disappear one day, so why not the icebergs?
