Its vision on the ICT has been guide in many cases, it is also a different and critical point of view, we can see part of its vision outside of the tendencies when referring to the technological indicators ( Read in MS ) ( Read in Noticias ). Appealing to their professor facet, he has made contributions clarifiers, these have been picked up in many websites of Internet, for example Software Licenses, investigator's profile is reflected in all their works.
He can describe the technology in a promissory way and also of critical way, but their works, in occasions, they also contain certain ironic humor in the plants you that he proposes, an example is "Toward the Technology without manuals" (Read)

Slitherz
Slitherz is a variation of the classic snake game. It was written by Joshua Henize. It was originally created using Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0.
The first version was released August of 2005 as version Snake variation 1.2.36. It was extremely primitive and buggy, it was more like an experiment. This version has been lost and there are no known copies of the game nor screen shots of any kind. It featured a map that could be edited, although there was no map editor at the time. The map that came with the game was made by hand with a hex editor.
In version 2.0 the name Slitherz was choosen over Snake variation. Slitherz 2.0 was a much more stable and funner game than 1.2.36. It was the first version to feature a map editor. The map editor was very slow and error prone. It was hidden in the game and could only be accessed through the Windows command-line. Slitherz 2.0 introduced porkypines as well as the food that has always been in the game.
Slitherz 2.1 was rebuilt from the ground up with Visual Basic 2005. It used an object-oriented design that made the internal workings of the game much more reliable and maintainable as well as expandable. There is also a hard-coded defualt map that is loaded when a map file cannot be loaded. The map editor was improved greatly since the last version.
Slitherz 2.2 is a rare version of Slitherz. It was stripped down to the core, although it still had an editable map there was no map editor included. Also the game itself was simplified by removeing the startup screen as well as many other small things. Version 2.2 was written in C#
Slitherz 2.3 brought back the map editor as well as adding a few improvments to the game play.
Slitherz 2.4 was a major improvement to the games internals. The most notable feature is LiveEditing. LiveEditing allows you to edit a map while you play it.
Slitherz 2.5 currently sets the standard for all future versions of Slitherz. It has a standardized map file architecture that will work in all versions of Slitherz after version 2.5. The file format improves safety that if it were not this way the game could easily crash by opening an invalid map file. Version 2.5 also features 'skins' and has much improved graphics over previous versions. Many other minor features were also added to this release.
Slitherz 2.6 was improved over version 2.5 by enabling maps to have there own skins as well as using the default skin that is packaged with the game. The bitmaps are injected into the map file itself. The defualt bitmaps are packed into a file instead of having them spead out in the open.
Slitherz 2.6.1 added a map file converter that allowed users to play maps from older versions of Slitherz(2.3 and up). Maps made for Slitherz 2.5 are automaticaly converted when loaded. The games file structure is more compact than in all previous verisons. The main goal of Slitherz 2.6.1 was to be rock solid and uncrashable. There are some cases when the game can crash, but those are rare. An example of its reliability is if you 'cut off all its arms and legs' by deleting all its files it will still beable to run and be playable.

United Nations Security Council Resolution 706
The United Nations Security Council Resolution 706 was submitted by the United States in August of 1991, following the sanctions placed on Iraq for their invasion of Kuwait, as a way for Iraq to sell oil in exchange for humanitarian goods in a way similar to that which was later implemented in the oil for food program.
The program would have allowed Iraq to sell up to $1.6bn of oil over a six month period. A portion of the proceeds would have been allocated towards compensation to Kuwait.
Iraq refused to sell the oil under this resolution.

Scoop Scuba
Scoop Scuba is the strange name of an old Canadian freedom fighter who was a Para-Scuba diver. According to folklore, Scoop would parachute from a bi-plane, land in the Atlantic, then search for German submarines or German Para-Scuba divers trying to sneak into the Halifax harbour during WWII. Scoop's real last name was originally National, but because of his great diving skills he was nick-named Scoop Scuba. He is occasionally refered to as Scoop National Scuba.

Anton Christoforidis
Anton Christoforidis was a Greek light heavyweight boxer. He was born on May 26, 1918 in Messinia prefecture, Greece. His first bout was against Francisco Garcia Lluch in Paris, France which he won by decision. He made his US debut on January 5, 1940 in Madison Square Garden defeating Willie Pavlovich. At that point Christoforidis settled in Geneva, Ohio in the USA.
Christoforidis was a very competent boxer who possessed good skills and got the most out of his ability. Since he did not possess heavy hands, having only recorded eleven knockouts in sixty-five fights, he relied on ring savvy and work-rate to get the job done.
He won the National Boxing Association world light heavyweight title on January 13, 1941 in Cleveland, Ohio by defeating Melio Bettina in a unanimous decision of a 15-round bout. Christoforidis defended his title successfully twice against Italo Colonnelo in Baltimore, Maryland and Johnny Romero in St Louis. He lost it May 22, 1941 to Gus Lesnevich by unanimous decision.
Christoforidis fought his last bout on February 18, 1947 against Anton Raadik. He retired with a record of 43 wins (11 by knock out), 15 losses and 7 draws.
In November of 1985 he passed away at the age of 67.

Oceanographic Institute of the University of São Paulo
The Oceanographic Institute of the University of São Paulo (USP), also known as IO-USP, due to its name in portuguese, was founded in 1946. It was originally an independent institute, sponsored by the government, but was later incorporated into the university, in 1951. It was originally founded because its creators needed scientific basis to fishery and exploitation of all the available marine resources along the Brazilian coast, specially in the state of São Paulo.
IO-USP was transformed in an University Unit in 1972, and started to offer post-graduation Masters courses in biological and physical oceanography in 1973. Nowadays, the Institute has two departments - Biological Oceanography and Physical, Chemical and Geological Oceanography. The institute has 34 teachers and around 150 general non-teaching workers. It offers a graduation course as well, and performs many different researches.
Its current director is Ana Setubal Pires Vanin.
Research Vessels
The institution has the support of three major vessels - the W. Besnard Oceanographic Ship, as well as the Albacora and the Veliger, used mostly by the graduation students in their field research.
Research Bases
The Institute has two research bases - Dr. João de Paiva Carvalho base, in the estuarine city of Cananéia, and the Clarimundo de Jesus base, in the coastal city of Ubatuba. Both are equipped with advanced laboratories and sufficient research vessels, with the fundamental support of the main vessel, the W. Besnard Oceanographip Ship.

Oklahoma Highway Patrol
The Oklahoma Highway Patrol (OHP) is currently one of the many state chartered law enforcement agencies. Formed in 1937, the OHP was the first state-wide law enforcement body responsible for administering vehicle laws on Oklahoma highways and roadways (municipal, state and federal). The first academy put out 125 fresh Troopers for Oklahoma's 77 counties, which had to contend greatly with motorists, because there had never been massive enforcement on motor vehicle operation within the state. Today the OHP has over 800 Troopers, with several subdivisions.
Troops
Troops A through M are known as field troops. Each troop office is immediately responsible for the area in which they are located. There may be troop detachment offices for each letter.
Troop ES is the Executive Security troop, which is charged with the protection and transportation planning for the state's governor, his/her family and the lieutenant governor.
Troop MC is the motorcycle division of the OHP, also commonly referred to as "The Flying Squadron." Majority of the vehicles in Troop MC are Harley Davidson motorcycles built to police standards. There are a few Kawasaki Hayabusa motorcycles that have been added to the OHP force to specifically address the awareness of motorcycle safety for those who ride "street bikes."
Troop O is the aviation troop of the Oklahoma Highway Patrol, which operates both helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft.
Troop Q is the investigative division of the OHP, which includes criminal investigations and the interal affairs division.
Troop R is known as "Capitol Patrol," this troop is responsible for the security of the buildings and employees of the state capitol grounds in Oklahoma City and other offices in Tulsa. The troop consists of about 40 Troopers.
Troop S is the Size and Weights troop. This troop is responsible for keeping tractor trailer drivers safe and in check on Oklahoma's roadways, by performing standard testing on trucks traveling throughout the state. Their task is shared with the Oklahoma Corporation Commission's Motor Vehicle Enforcement agency.
Troop SO is the Special Operations troop, this troop has recently changed its name from Crime Interdiction. Troop SO is responsible for the drug detection dogs and various tasks that go with drug related crimes.
Troop T is the Training division of OHP, charged with the training of future State Troopers and continued education.
Troop W is commonly referred to as Lake Patrol. This troop is responsible for enforcing not only criminal statutes, but various gaming and watercraft laws on Oklahoma's state lakes.
Tac Team is short for the Oklahoma Highway Patrol Tactical Team, much like metropolitain SWAT teams, the Tac Team is charged with serving high-risk warrants, envoking drug busts, barricaded suspects and other tactical situations. The Tac Team is divided into two teams, East and West, which respond primarily to call-ups in their respective areas of the state. As Oklahoma City is the East/West divider, the West team is the primary responder for Oklahoma City.
Troops XA, XB, XC, XD, XE, YA, YB, YC, and YE are the turnpike troops, which administer law enforcement on Oklahoma's nine turnpikes.
Special Notes
The "Darkest Day" for the Oklahoma Highway Patrol took place May 26th, 1978, when two convicts escaped the Oklahoma State Penitentiary (OSP), in McAlester, Oklahoma. A shootout ensued near Kenefic, Oklahoma, which claimed the lives of Troopers Billy G. Young and Houston F. "Pappy" Summers. Later the inmates were tracked down in Caddo, Oklahoma, where another gun battle took place which also claimed the life of 2nd Lieutenant Pat Grimes, the suspects were also killed in the same gunfight.
Trooper Alan Beaty is the inventor of the "Trooper Trap," a revolutionary prisioner seatbelt and weapon tampering alarm system.

Scottish Central Institutions
Central Institutions were a range of tertiary education institutes in 20th Century Scotland responsible for providing degree-level education but emphasising teaching rather than research. Some had a range of courses similar to polytechnics elsewhere in the UK while others were more specialised.
They included Colleges and Institutes of Technology, Art Colleges and Agricultural Colleges. Napier College and Glasgow and Paisley Colleges of Technology eventually changed their names to include the word Polytechnic.
The number of CIs varied but in 1988 the list included the following, several of which now have university status.
Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art, Dundee (now part of the University of Dundee)
Dundee Institute of Technology, Dundee (now University of Abertay Dundee)
East of Scotland College of Agriculture, Edinburgh (now part of the Scottish Agricultural College)
Edinburgh College of Art, Edinburgh
Glasgow College of Technology, Glasgow (later Glasgow Polytechnic, now part of Glasgow Caledonian University)
The Glasgow School of Art, Glasgow
Napier Polytechnic (then University) of Edinburgh , Edinburgh
North of Scotland College of Agriculture, Aberdeen (now part of the Scottish Agricultural College)
Paisley College of Technology, Paisley (later Paisley Polytechnic, now University of Paisley)
Queen Margaret College, Edinburgh (now Queen Margaret University College)
The Queen's College, Glasgow (now part of Glasgow Caledonian University)
Robert Gordon's Institute of Technology, Aberdeen (now The Robert Gordon University)
The Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama, Glasgow
Scottish College of Textiles, Galashiels
The West of Scotland College, Auchincruive (now part of the Scottish Agricultural College)
Another CI, Leith Nautical College, Leith, had been closed in 1987.
Some subjects were not taught at the CIs, for example teacher training was only carried out by the Colleges of Education which later merged with Universities, and Sociology was only offered by the Universities.

Sifer's Candy Company
The Sifer's Candy Company is a Kansas-based independent producer of candy that was founded in 1903 by Samuel Mitchell Sifers as a producer of penny candy. After a few years, they began making candy bars, such as the now-discontinued Jersy Cow and KC bar. In 1931, the Valomilk cup was created, according to legend because a candy maker added too much Vanilla to the Marshmallow batch creating a runny mixture, which was added to chocolate cups.
In 1970 the company was sold in a merger and became part of what was planned to be a national company, but it failed financially and the factory was shut down in 1981. In 1985, Russel Sifers started a new factory with the original equipment and began exclusively making Valomilks, which they continue to do to this day. The company stands out as being one of the few remaining candy companies to still make their candy by hand.

Invisible Thread Reel ( ITR)
The Invisible Thread Reel
The Invisible Thread Reel is a dispensing device for Invisible Thread. Invisible thread, although not completely Invisible is a very fine strand of Nylon that is used by Magicians to levitate small objects. What is so revolutionary about the Thread Reel is that it is the first device to not only dispense Invisible Thread, but also retracts it, and it keeps a constant tension on the line. Using Invisible Thread prior to this device was a nightmare. You had to strip the thread out of a bundle of strands, set it up before the performance, and if you were lucky it would still be intact when you were ready to present the effect.
The Thread Reel has many advantages compared to just using ordinary Invisible Thread. Be sure when you learn the effects to understand that you will be developing skills that you will be able to apply to your own idea’s etc. It is the techniques and theory you are after here so that you will be in a position to create your own routines etc.
The Thread Reel
Easy to use!
The ITR is very easy to use. Children as young as 6 have successfully learned to present routines with the Invisible Thread Reel. The only real problem you may have with your ITR is resetting the thread. Even that has been eliminated with the release of the 2001 series thread reels. We hope that you take the time necessary to develop the skills required to become a successful ITR performer. As with any new undertaking it will require some patience and practice. Bare in mind that the Thread Reel itself is a very simple device and once you understand it, you will can solve almost any problem it may have. My only recommendation is that you may have to invest a fair amount of time into acquiring this knowledge, but know that it is well worth the effort when you see the look on the audience members faces, when they witness the miracles you will perform! Good luck and we look forward to hearing your thoughts and feed back.
Sincerely,
James B. George (Inventor of the ITR)

This Little Light of Mine
This Little Light of Mine has been a popular Christian song for many years. It was written by Harry D. Loes with arrangement by Lewis G. Scharpf, Jr. This piece illustrates how various musical genres can be incorporated into contemporary Christian music. The arrangement begins with a gospel type of introduction which leads into a "shuffle" rhythm. This section is followed by a classical rock and roll section. A bluegrass interpretation follows and the piece is rounded out with mainstream jazz.

Psychoanalytic Resistance
"There is, however, another point of view which you may take up in order to understand the psychoanalytic method. The discovery of the unconscious and the introduction of it into consciousness is performed in the face of a continuous resistance (Widerstände) on the part of the patient. The process of bringing this unconscious material to light is associated with pain (Unlust), and because of this pain the patient again and again rejects it. It is for you then to interpose in this conflict in the patient’s mental life. If you succeed in persuading him to accept, by virtue of a better understanding, something that up to now, in consequence of this automatic regulation by pain, he has rejected (repressed), you will then have accomplished something towards his education. For it is an education even to induce a person who dislikes leaving his bed early in the morning to do so all the same. Psychoanalytic treatment may in general be conceived of as such a re-education in overcoming internal resistances." (Sigmund Freud, 1959/1904, pp. 261-262)
Primary Gain Versus Secondary Gain Models of Resistance
Secondary gain. Although the term resistance as we know it today in psychotherapy is largely associated with Sigmund Freud, the idea that some patients "cling to their disease" (S. Freud, 1959/1904, p. 254) was a popular one in medicine in the nineteenth century and referred to patients whose maladies did not improve due, presumably, to the ‘secondary gains’ of social, physical, and financial benefits associated with illness (Leahy, 2001). Freud’s only contribution to that initial notion of resistance came as a side-effect from his larger, more revolutionary contribution to the field of psychology: The dissemination and popularization of the influence of the unconscious on human behavior (Hergenhan & Olson, 2003). Accordingly, although Freud was trained in and familiar with the notion of secondary gain popular at the time (Freud, 1959/1926a, pp. 97-100), he came to see it as an unconscious phenomenon.
Primary gain. Freud’s more specific contribution to the treatment of the mentally dis-eased was a model of human psychological functioning that offered an explanation of the primary gains that patients derive from their psychiatric symptoms (Fenichel, 1945; Wolitzky, 2003). This model explains that the symptoms represent an unconscious tradeoff in exchange for the sufferer being spared other, experientially worse, psychological displeasures (Unlusten). This conceptualization of primary gain is what Freud (1959/1896) labeled a “compromise formation,” (Kompromisslösung; p. 163). And while the distinction between primary gain (internal benefits) and secondary gain (external benefits) was not directly articulated by Freud, it was alluded to, for example: “In civil life illness can be used as a screen to gloss over incompetence in one’s profession or in competition with other people; while in the family it can serve as a means for sacrificing the other members and extorting proofs of their love or for imposing one’s will upon them….we sum it up in the term ‘gain from illness’….But there are other motives, that lie still deeper, for holding on to being ill…[b]ut these cannot be understood without a fresh journey into psychological theory” (1959/1926b, pp. 222-223).
Resistance as Conflicting Agencies
So to Freud resistance was really an intrapsychic compromise arranged in order to avoid losing more. But with whom was the arrangement established? —And by whom? As the word’s definition suggests, a compromise is reached between two or more conflicting agencies. In this case one of the agencies desires to not experience discomfort. Freud (1959/1896) called this psychic agency “the repressing” (p. 163), or, later, “the pleasure-pain (Lust-Unlust) principle” (1959/1911; p. 14), which eventually came to be referred to as the “id” (Freud, 1959/1937a; Wyss, 1973). The other agency works to maintain contact with worldly experiences. Freud (1959/1896) called that psychic agency “the repressed” (p. 163), or, later, “the reality principle” (1959/1911; p. 14), which eventually came to be referred to as the “ego” (Freud, 1959/1937a; Wyss, 1973). The compromise they strive for is to achieve maximum drive satisfaction (“cathexis” or attachment) with minimum resultant pain (negative reactions from within and without). Freud (1959/1911) theorized that psychopathology was due to unsuccessful compromises: “We have long observed that every neurosis has the result, and therefore probably the purpose, of forcing the patient out of real life, of alienating him from actuality” (p. 13).
Client Resistance as Pathogenic in Practice
However, it is crucial to note that compromise formations reached by these two agencies were not theorized by Freud to be inherently pathogenic. They were seen as being inherently human. That is, the compromise formation leading to psychiatric symptoms was seen as pathological only because it led to psychiatric symptoms. The pathology was not understood as the act of compromise per se—because compromise between the different agencies of the mind (later named the id or unconscious sex and destruction drives, ego or reality principle, and superego or conscience) represented to Freud (1959/1937a) the fundamental human condition (Wyss, 1973)—but from the results of the specific compromise that led to undesirable symptoms. Similarly, a compromise solution was seen as resulting in “successful defense” (S. Freud, 1959/1896, p. 163)—against displeasure—as long as it resulted in “apparent health” (p. 163), understood as a lack of symptoms. But that was not the case for people who sought treatment: Their compromises were by definition not successful—otherwise they would not be distressed and seeking help. Thus, practically speaking, among people seeking treatment, the compromises they had previously reached were ipso facto pathogenic.
The Key Players in Freud’s Theory of Resistance
The key players in this Kompromisslösung theory of symptom production and maintenance present the core kernel of Freud’s theory of resistance. They are: Repression (often used interchangeably with the term anticathexis, to describe the force which counters cathexis, or drive satisfaction), defense, displeasure, anxiety, danger, compromise, symptom, and experience (either external or internal). Three of the terms occasionally were used interchangeably by Freud—resistance, repression, and defense—with subtle differences in meaning: Resistance often was used to refer to the behavioral manifestations of avoiding direct contact with distressing ideas (inclusive of affects), while defense was the higher order construct which explained the behavioral manifestations, and repression was the general act of denying awareness (Strachey, 1959). As Freud (1959/1926) wrote, “The action undertaken to protect repression is observable in analytic treatment as resistance. Resistance presupposes the existence of what I have called anticathexis” (p. 157). And, “The task of defense against a dangerous perception is, incidentally, common to all neuroses” (p. 159). Similarly, the terms anxiety, displeasure, and danger often were used indistinguishably, having the general meaning of negative affect, while occasionally having more specific meanings. The more specific meanings can be summarized as either experiences of helplessness and loss of object (also referred to as fear), or “signal anxiety” acting to warn of potential impending loss or helplessness (Freud, 1959/1926, pp. 169-172; Strachey, 1959; Wyss, 1973).
The Sea Change in Freud’s Theory of Resistance
Although Freud (1959/1896) originally theorized anxiety as resulting from the process of repression (a theory which stemmed from his observations of hysterias, phobias and obsessions—entailing pathological manifestations of anxiety—and his striving towards an energy conservation model of the psyche; Strachey, 1959; Wyss, 1973), by 1926 he publicly abandoned that notion and assigned the role of anxiety to the ego, explaining repression as resulting from anxiety experienced by the ego (Freud, 1959/1926; p. 161; Strachey, 1959; Wyss, 1973). The “defense neuro-psychoses” (viz., hysteria, obsessions, and phobias; Freud, 1959/1894) then came to be understood as compromise formations negotiated by the ego, albeit still unconsciously (Freud, 1959/1937a; p. 341), to defend against the anxiety of becoming aware of distressing repressed material (Strachey, 1959; Wyss, 1973). This sea change is interesting because it hints toward initial movement by Freud from a strictly objectivist model of knowledge to a constructivist one, as the ego is transmuted from reporting on reality to arbitrating it. Similarly, in some ways Freud’s classic psychoanalytic conceptualization of resistance as defense against painful ‘realities’ exemplifies the modernist pursuit of veridical knowledge—including the metaphor of psychoanalysis as surgery or an archaeological excavation (1959/1937b, p. 360). In other ways Freud (1959/1904) seems to hint towards an appreciation of the constructive nature of experience—viewing resistance as part of a process of “the play of mental forces…which alone makes it possible to comprehend behavior in daily life” (p. 254) and demonstrating the human tendency to construct meaning based on past experiences and to interpret the past based on current experience. Freud (1959/1912) called this tendency “Übertragen” (p. 312), translatable as “carried over” or “carried forward” (Universität München, n.d.), but better known as transference. Freud (1959/1912) accordingly referred to transference manifestations as “stereotypes,” “prototypes,” or “clichés” (p. 313) people use to increase satisfaction of their wishes in their encounters with the world. Not surprisingly, Freud (1959/1925) came to understand resistance and transference to be circularly tied to each other, as resistance works to maintain transference while transference shapes resistance. Their occurrence in psychoanalysis was unmistakable to Freud, and important and frequent enough that they became the foundation of the entire psychoanalytic endeavor: "It may thus be said that the theory of psycho-analysis is an attempt to account for two observed facts that strike one conspicuously and unexpectedly whenever an attempt is made to trace the symptoms of a neurotic back to their source in his past life: the facts of transference and resistance. Any line of investigation, no matter what its direction, which recognizes these two facts and takes them as the starting-point of its work may call itself psychoanalysis, though it arrives at results other than my own." (S. Freud, 1959/1914b, p.298) Indeed, to this day most major schools of psychotherapeutic thought continue to at least recognize—if not ‘take as the starting-point’—the two phenomena of transference and resistance (e.g., Beutler, et al., 2002; Leahy, 2001; Anderson & Stewart, 1983; Wachtel, 1982).
Freud’s Five Kinds of Resistance
Having conceded libido (and its inherent motivation and agency) to the ego as well as to the id, and through the ego to the superego, Freud (1959/1926, pp. 157-160) then delineated “five kinds of resistances that are met with in analysis” (while stressing that the list is not exhaustive), three by the ego, one by the id, and one by the superego, listed respectively: 1. “Repression,” e.g. reaction-formation, obsession, phobia (i.e. denial or avoidance) 2. “Transference,” (i.e. projection) 3. “Gain from illness,” (i.e. secondary gain) 4. “Compulsion to repeat,” (i.e. acting out) 5. “Sense of guilt or need for punishment,” (i.e. self-sabotage) All of them serve the explicit purpose of defending the ego against feelings of discomfort, for, as Freud (1959/1926) wrote: "It is hard for the ego to direct its attention to perceptions and ideas which it has up till now made a rule of avoiding, or to acknowledge as belonging to itself impulses that are the complete opposite of those which it knows as its own." (p. 159) The first two forms of resistance work to prevent material from reaching awareness, while the last three work to keep material that was previously avoided out of awareness. Freud’s Treatment of Resistance Freud viewed all five categories of resistance as requiring more than just intellectual insight or understanding to overcome. He characterized psychoanalysis as comprising three processes of overcoming pathogenic resistances, “recollection, repetition, and working through” (1959/1914a, p. 366), and emphasized the crucial component of ‘working through’ in the change process: "This condition of present illness is shifted bit by bit within the range and field of operation of the treatment, and while the patient lives it through as something real and actual, we have to accomplish the therapeutic task, which consists chiefly in translating it back again into terms of the past." (p. 371) Working through thus allows clients “to get to know this resistance” and “discover the repressed instinctual trends which are feeding the resistance” (p. 375) and it is this experientially convincing process which “distinguishes analytic treatment from every kind of suggestive treatment” (p. 376). For this reason Freud (1959/1913) insisted that therapists remain neutral, saying only as much as “is absolutely necessary to keep him [the patient] talking” (p. 343), so that resistance could be seen as clearly as possible in clients’ transference, and become obvious to the clients themselves. The importance to Freud of working through in successful psychoanalytic treatment—and its requirement that the resistance be acknowledged and reassessed with the renewed recognition of past events—thus reiterates the inextricable link suggested by Freud between transference and resistance (“transference-resistance,” Freud, 1959/1912; Fenichel, 1945; see also empirical support in Patton, Kivlighan, Jr., & Multon, 1997), and perhaps encapsulates his legacy to psychotherapy.

Claudine at St Clare's
In this fifth book of Enid Blyton's St Clare's series, the twins and their friends learn to be members of a higher form at the school. There are four new girls: the snobby Angela, who does not wish to have anything to do with most of her form, Eileen, daughter of the new matron, who is a sneak and a tell-tale, Pauline, who wishes to be thought of as rich and well connected but is in reality rather dull and Claudine, the amusing but unscrupulous niece of the French mistress, Mam'zelle. The book involves some shakes as the new girls learn to settle down and, in one or two cases, learn some hard lessons. Claudine learns the value of an English 'sense of honour' and Pauline learns not to boast and tell lies. There is a certain amount of class snobbery in this, as in most of Blyton's books but it is nontheless a readable and enjoyable look at 1940s children's literature.

Zephyr (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle)
The Zephyr (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle)is a solar powered uav designed in the uk as a cheep alternative to spy satalite technology for use on the battle feild in the near future. each Zepher is expected to cost just £1 million , which is afraction of the cost of the current satalites used by the mod for the same purpose of observation on a battle field, which each cost around £15 million each to produce. The solar pannels on the Zephyr will allow it to stay airborn between 50000- 60000 feet for three months, powering two small electric turbine engins to do so. The solar pannels on the uav are so far unable to power the aircraft into the air on their own, and so currently require it to be launched either from a ballon, or in tests by running down a runway and releasing it into an oncomming gust of wind. The survalence equipment expected to be carried on the Zephyr should be able to resolve images up to ten inchs small, and relay messages from special forces operateing in remote areas. It is scheduald to be in service within the next two years, in operations over Iriq and Afganistan.

Understanding the Minimum Finance Charge
24.172.249.189 21:13, 13 August 2006 (UTC)Sign
When a credit card company says there is no annual fee, but it also says minimum finance charge 50 cents or minimum monthly charge of $1 (or something like those two), what does it really mean? Does the minimum finance charge apply whether or not a person revolves on their credit card balance?
A minimum finance charge is based on you carrying a balance. If there is a minimum finance charge of 50 cents and your finance charge for the month is 37 cents, the credit card company would charge you the minimum finance charge. If there are no balances subject to the finance charge, or no finance charges that billing period, the credit card company won't charge you 50 cents.
A minimum monthly charge applies to the merchant who accepts the cards, not the credit card holder. It's the minimum that the credit card processing firm charges the merchant each month for access to processing.
If you pay the bill every cycle within the grace period, don't carry a balance and don't use the card for cash advances, you shouldn't generate any finance charges. With no annual fee, you don't even have to pay for the privilege of carrying the card. The credit card provider still makes some money from the merchant transactions, but you're not one of the company's more profitable accounts.

eksund
The Eksund is the name of the I.R.A. gun running vessel that was intercepted by the French coastguard as part of a british intelligence operation to thwart the supply of arms to the Provisional Irish Republican Army from Libyas colonel Quadafi which had begun in 1985. The Eksund was a former grain transporter which was purchased by the Dublin entrepenuer Adrian Hopkins, who had previously smuggled weapons for the I.R.A. from Libya, to move an unprecedented amount and variety of weapons and explosives from Tripoli to Ireland. The ship s crew included James Coll and James Doherty, both of Donegal, Joseph Murray, Henry Cairns Hopkins business associate and Gabriel Cleary from Dublin the I.R.A.s cheif of engineering. It was loaded in Tripoli docks by Libyan naval personel on the 13th and 14th of october 1987 with an astonishing 150 tons of ordnance including 2 tons of semtex explosive, 1,000 ak47 assault rifles,1,000,000 rounds of amunition, 12 RPG launchers with hundreds of grenades and rockets 12 DSHK heavy machine guns,thousands of detonators and fuses, a hundred general purpose machine guns, flame throwers,and most importantly more than 50 SAM-7 missiles needed to bing down British army helicopters, particularly over border areas like south Armagh thus making the suply of army bases in remote areas very difficult and reducing the border to little more than a line on maps. The crew of the Eksund became nervous early in their return voyage when they were over passed by an unidentified plane an incedent that was to be repeated every day thereafter. The Eksund had suffered various mechanical problems since setting off from Ireland and on the 27th of October the ships steering failed and it began drifting toward the coast of Brittany. High speed boats were spotted coming toward the ship from the french coast and the spotter plane again flew overhead.Cleary, realising the operation was now untenable, decided that the only option was to scuttle the ship to prevent the British discovering its cargo in line with his orders.Cleary had prepared semtex charges in the Eksunds ballast compartments,in Tripoli, that would sink the vessel very quickly. The crew prepared the escape dinghy while he went to set the timing devices. It was at this point Cleary was sure of what he had begun to suspect there was a traitor on the Eksund. The carefully prepared explosive charges had been damaged beyond repair.Cleary, one of the I.R.A.s most experienced bomb makers, knew he would not have time to prepare another charge before the Eksund was boarded. The crew including the traitor were arrested by the French coastguard and the ships interception was the biggest British single success against republican arms smuggling of the troubles.

Oliver Kloseoff
Famous Montreal (Quebec, Canada) client of street prostitutes. Has claimed over 200 street prostitutes in Montreal have slept with him for money. Mostly inexpensive girls looking for quick cash. Has been known to frequent review boards such as www.merc.ca or www.merb.ca writing about his escapades. Suddenly in the summer of 2006 he disappeared and his whereabouts aren't known. However, rumors have it he is still walking the street of Montreal looking for working girls to spend some money for sex. People who know him describe him as a kind and gentle person with a sense of humor and a great story teller.
(editing in order:) Actually, Oliver Kloseoff is indeed the individual who saw all these hundreds of street prostitutes, but he only became famous for getting away with paying one with a chocolate bar and a 20$ bill, and for posting pictures of the said prostitutes on escort discussion forums like merc.ca and merb.ca, without their permission, and for founding the 'Oliver Kloseoff School of how to Screw Over Crack-Whores (his wording)'. Many fellow illiterate and high-school drop outs have since followed his lead. For that reason, the 'Oliver Kloseoff School of how to Screw Over Crack-Whores' is no longer accepting new applicants. === Sources ===http://www.merc.ca/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=35636&postcount=67

It is pathetic to read such articles at Wikipedia. Oliver Klosoff is a famous Montreal impulsive compulsive looser. I hope that this non-sense will be deleted by Wikepedia editors.
(edited note:)
Well he's one of the most good-looking dudes in Montreal--with that sexy six-pack and hollow brain-- 6' + tall... One deserves an entry on Wikipedia just for being so darned pretty! Just PM him on merc.ca and he'll PM back his picture so you can oooh and ahhh on how sexy he is and attest to what I am saying. Offer him a Mars bar and he might do you for free (so he can go out on the prowl to lure street prostitute # 200+ with your offering, since he's all out of 20$ bills a couple days after the welfare check comes in).

Church of the Annunciation of the Virgin Mary, Tinos
The Church of the Annunciation of the Virgin Mary on the island of Tinos is an Eastern Orthodox church and the most popular Christian pilgrimage site in the Eastern Mediterranean. The church is most commonly referred to in Greek as Panaghia tis Tinou (the Tinos Madonna), the Megalochari (She of the Great Grace) or simply I Chari Tis (Her Grace).
The church was built mostly of white marble in Renaissance style, in 1823, following the excavation of an old icon of the Annunciation, purportedly made of colored wax by the Apostle St. Luke, which was discovered following the vision of a nun, Pelagia, who was lated sanctified. The church was inaugurated in 1830 and occupies the site of an older Paleochristian chapel of St. John, which was in turn built on the ruins of a temple of Dionysus.
Although the church's eponymous holy day is on the day of the Annunciation, on March 25th, the actual pilgrimage takes place on August 15th, for the Feast of the Dormition. The annual pilgrimage is made in honor of the holy icon of the Panaghia Evangelistria (Our Lady of Good Tidings), believed to still perform miracles. The icon is by now almost completely encrusted in gold, silver and jewels, and it is formally paraded through Tinos town on that day. Both the Eastern Orthodox and Roman Catholic inhabitants of Tinos participate in the August 15th celebration.

The Arena Theater, Bratislava, Slovakia
The Arena Theater with its long tradition is one of the oldest theatres in Bratislava. It was founded in 1828 on the bank of the Danube River, close to a historical public park.
At the beginning it served as a summer theatre – amphitheatre (open air theatre), hence the name Arena. In 1898 the original theatre was replaced by a new building, whose features are to this day almost unchanged.
From its opening until the end of the II. World War, many Hungarian, Austrian and German theatre companies performed in the Arena. The Austrian Theatre an der Wien, popular even today, has performed here regularly since 1921.
Unforgettable performances for Bratislava's spectators include Eduard Klisching, well-known in Europe as the first mime and comedian of the Royal Theatres in Paris and London or the German actor and director Max Reinhardt.
In 1946, the suburb Petrzalka was affiliated to Bratislava and the Arena Theatre was closed and used as the archives for the Slovak television broadcasting company.

The second album from The Scooters, I Can See Your House From Here, is warm, likeable pop from the Cardiff, Wales quintet. With melodies that linger and well-crafted songs, backed by the solid production of John Mastro, this effort should get the band some more attention from the buying masse
