Difference Between Eitiology And Pathology

Lectura para la crisis: Fundación

I always curious coincidences are occurring when you read a book or watching a movie and feel that fits some of this. Asimov truth is that it be a continual sense of déjà vu : a man from our past who wrote about our (still very distant) future, and you can always try to go for the present.

"The psychohistorians" First part of the book "Foundation" (1951), which is, in turn, the first volume written from the "trilogy of Foundations" or "The Cycle of Trantor" . Everything could more or less apply to the situation seen now on the American empire, a crisis that apparently it was to be a long time but nothing was done to avoid it, and that despite being there, shows us a U.S. which remain powerful (at least in appearance .) It is specifically a conversation in the book Seldon, mathematical scientist who has planned the end of Empire, and a government lawyer trying to charge him as a liar and traitor



Seldon
The explanation is simple . The coming destruction of Trantor is not an isolated event schema of human development. It will be the culmination of an intricate drama that began for centuries and continuously accelerates its speed. I mean, gentlemen, to the continuing decline of the Galactic Empire. (...)



ATTORNEY
Do you realize, Dr. Seldon, you're talking about an empire that has existed for twelve thousand years, despite all the vicissitudes of generations; which is supported by the good wishes and love of human beings trillion?

(...) And [yet] predicted its downfall? Seldon


is a prediction made by mathematics. There is no moral judgments. Personally, I regret the prospect. Although it is accepted that the rule should not (which I do), the state of anarchy after the fall would be even worse. is that state of anarchy my project aims to combat. However, the fall of the empire, gentlemen, is something monumental and can not easily combated. is dictated by a growing bureaucracy, a recession of the initiative, a freezing of caste, stagnation of curiosity ... and many other factors. As I said, centuries ago that is forming just too great to stop. ATTORNEY


Is not it obvious to everyone that the rule is so strong as usual? Seldon


The appearance of strength is not an illusion. Seems to have to last forever. However, lawyer, rotten tree trunk, to the very moment when the storm breaks it in two, has all the appearance of solid ever had. Now the storm is upon the branches of the empire. Listen with the ears of psychohistory, and hear the crunch. ATTORNEY


(with uncertainty)
We are not here, Dr. Seldon, to listen ...


Seldon
(Firmly)
The rule will disappear and with it all positive values. The accumulated knowledge will decay and has imposed order will vanish. Interstellar wars will be endless, interstellar trade will fall, the population will decline, the worlds will lose contact with the core of the galaxy. This is what will happen. (...)

Gazapo en póster Seminci 2008

The poster is right, is simple, although not very original, I like it (I could see full here.) But it has a fault, who knows whether through ignorance or simply because the graph structure is just as well and the designer, Rafael Sanudo (as nortecastilla.es , where they talk briefly poster) preferred to forget the truth. But whatever the reason, no longer a mistake, even if it has been good overall aesthetic would be an error:

Seminci '08 y Javier Angulo
Along the lineup, the director of the International Week of Film
Valladolid (Seminci), Javier Angulo.


Indeed, no light passes through the iris as seen in the cartel, but only through the pupil area:

Unique Grooms Table Ideas

El valor de los símbolos, ¿mensajes contradictorios?

you imagine someone with a swastika pendant and tells you: "No, I myself hate the Nazi regime, but is that the cross is very pretty ".

Or maybe you better imaginéis a communist with seagulls on a patch of his jacket: "What fault do I have, is my favorite animal as my name is Pepe ... it gave them to use it Logo to these petty politicians yes, but the design is cool ... "

A convinced atheist and expressive on the subject, with a tattoo of the Virgin or of Christ crucified "Catholicism is crap, but look how handsome strokes has a tattoo and what textures ...".


not, right? Well then, why not stop to see girls with the Playboy logo in hanging folders, rings, watches, drawn on clothing, bracelets, earrings or tattoos? ( here lots of examples of Ebay where women go more items by putting Playboy products for men and eroticism, which says a lot of demand).

You may have a large percentage that is not in what I will say that they favor or feel indifference to erotic publications (consume or not to participate or not), in which case there is no problem. To me what surprises me is that I also know many cases of girls who are against such publications, but they like the rabbit and its products have such as pastel colors, as well as lead. Les questions about the issue of girls who go naked in magazines and think that it is used to denigrate women and that "the men are a piggy" or even that such a whore (but remember that only Playboy appear naked, no sex in any way.) And change them all, paying for advertising and lead by defending something that hate. Is not as contradictory as the case of the swastika, the logo of the PP or the tattoo of the Virgin?



(All images are expandable)

I do not mind living in an ideal world which could carry any symbol for the simple appeal of it (hopefully a simple cross with blades did not bring as many pictures and unpleasant situations to mind), but is not the case. It is true that some things can be symbols on and discriminating use of ideology as representative of another person (like taking a shaved head and be a skinhead ). I am not referring to those, but logos or trademarks belong to symbols that are immediately recognizable because of historical ideologies, and in both cases the relationship you have with the symbol is not even indifference, but of rejection. But still, you take your logo clearly visible.

is something I have never seen or at least not as often with other symbols except this. And frankly, I think that being against the deal as sex objects of women by the media, and instead take the maximum exponent and the first major company that was dedicated to use in its publications, is a sad contradiction to the wearer.

however, says much of the creative team behind the logo and all marketing back, getting money from the sector that should be less interested in the product, to give it a glamorous and placing it in its most characteristic objects of consumption. And you can not deny that the rabbit is instantly recognizable.

I suppose the only explanation I can think of is that it is more a symbol of "overly attractive women" , so perhaps all they have wanted be as pretty as the bunnies or playmates , and have it more as a sort of label "thoroughbred" female aesthetic any other reason. But even then, when you reject the entire industry after the symbol, it remains a tremendous contradiction.

Amores en serie


series are not like the movies. Sometimes the film looks more like a quickie, convinced that if you repeat it, and can that yes, being a historical dust. But a series is a stable relationship involves trust and loyalty. A movie convinces you overnight, but a series requires several appointments, and at first began to see knowing that soon you will take a decision: is this the series you want to spend the rest of my first times ?

remember how I felt after 3 citations family member Soprano, with 3 appointments a stand-up comedian named Seinfeld convinced me to get the funny side of life, 3 Friends appointments and I already felt his gang and I also conquered Rome in 3 days. It is usually the amount that you begin to make that decision to proceed or abandon.

There's always some crazy girl who convinces you at a glance. Even I remember when we walked a blonde pregnant and I on a strange island, Lost , not knowing quite how we got there and told me he did not know what to do with his son and went to a psychic who told him to take the plane. Blue eyes House convinced me, despite its dryness, that if one day something happened to me would be at his side. Grissom made me see that it was best not to get carried away by passion and commit a crime with the CSI team near Las Vegas. Later another police officer in California, Dexter taught me that you only have to be sensible and know how to leave no trace. It is curious that after as good impesiones three of these relationships and have been somewhat neglected, although it is always nice to be with them from time to time.

But sometimes it just does not gel. At first it looked great, had that aura of charm in what is known but vanished. After four appointments ... I doubt if I continue this relationship. Just remember one time that really made me forget about the other series, and the rest of the time I was comparing it with other, previous romances. Yesterday practically the only thing I found interesting were their breasts ...


BRB Nero Pluto ... I've been disappointed with time. Since I was a fourth time with her with some doubt, and do not know if I will attend a fifth. Maybe someday you'll find it by zapping the grill and look at us thinking about what could be and was not. But I do not work. In the first meeting gave me hope, in the second I found it quite stimulating, in the third made me smile very little ... but the fourth, right, I saw his intentions clear. Maybe I was crying out to come up with her to her apartment and did not understand ... Actually it felt more like I'm leaving aside, as if he did not care.

may not come to know which of the two is more responsible for the breakdown ... or perhaps with time receive a response.

La Conspiración de Eagle Eye, un poquito de Asimov

is possible for the sake of comparison I aim to make, one might consider the following as a big spoiler for the movie "Eagle Eye" (Eagle Eye, 2008) . For this reason, unless has been or do not mind, better not read on.

"Eagle Eye" (2008), uninformative title that has resulted in Spain, to give more meaning and attract more people, has been called with a neutral "Eagle Eye ". Since then, the original Eagle Eye , says nothing, but as the film progresses one learns that Eagle Eye is the name of a computer major. It is possible that most people compare the function of that computer with George Orwell's "1984" by the end manipulation and control, but no. For my taste is much closer to something else, namely the impressive Multivac, the final computer designed by one of the greatest geniuses of science fiction, Isaac Asimov, which certainly has not had much luck in their adaptations in film, though for my taste "Bicentennial Man" (Bicentennial Man , 1999) was a good movie that had nothing to envy to his narrative.

For those who do not know Multivac, the first thing I would recommend buying "Collected Stories I" Asimov. It was the center of several of his stories, a giant computer that controlled and knew everything, he was able both to choose the political leader the people want by asking a single citizen to fill gaps in its network of information, as well served therapist, hearing problems around the world and trying to answer them or to advise politicians and military in their actions and risks. But there are many more stories, among which is surely one of the best and most rounds ever written in science fiction, "Last question."

As I was watching the film was becoming more and more certain that Eagle Eye was an unacknowledged adaptation of an Asimov story. In particular, reminded me very much "All the world's ills" (All the Troubles of the World) (full story and translated here) , which are not of the best is quite interesting. In the end there was such adaptation, but there were some curious similarities.

For those who have not read or do not remember the story, it is threatened the very existence of Multivac . In itself, this may not sound very important, but more surprising is that it really was not anyone want to kill it, but wanted to commit suicide Multivac. Since I could not for obvious physical reasons, takes the trouble to choose a city much like someone who worked there to let him pass. That city really did everything to save his father, and had no knowledge of what was happening. Multivac

not take it anymore, so many things the world knew that he was aware of the misery that surrounded him, so many problems, many ills, led him to suicidal. In contrast, Eagle Eye is not as empathetic. End, despite having good intentions even given the apparent lack of significant ethical and Machiavellianism, was not as respectable as that of Multivac . Here we are not a poor computer that suffers, but a controller that does its job.

But it is curious like a computer that controls and knows everything, advises on actions to be performed by the human, political and military seeks an individual "identical to" that can access system to do something that only he can do. It's almost like Asimov's story with action and giving a twist to the issue assassin, eliminating yes, the deep part of the story: if the world's most powerful computer, the one who knows and knows everything, wants to commit suicide, what world do we live?

not consider it plagiarism or anything like that, but like me are quite clear, but may be simple coincidence or influence, I see no intent to hide anything in it. Now, if I had to know only one of the two works, I'll stick with Asimov without hesitation. It makes me think more, and the movie only adds an action so fast that leaves me no time to find out what happens.

Wedding Minister Letter

Inteligencia Artificial: Turing contra Searle

As I read Microserfs are going to do from Sunday Turing Test (1950) to see if artificial intelligence can overcome the final test, impersonate human without being recognized. It is interesting, and certainly very important technological researchers. But the Turing test was more relevant to the purely technical part, also sought to explain to humans through the machine, explaining and defining intelligence.

There are two theories that address the issue within AI itself since it also can deny both and consider that human intelligence can not be explained or defined by computer modeling.

The first theory is known as strong AI , argues that the mind is a consequence of the functional organization of the brain. Any system that reproduces the functional brain organization possess identical emotional states and intentions conscious experiences. If it looks smart is smart. Thus, if the product of an interaction not recognize that we are interacting with a machine, then it is intelligent. The problem is that there is very little subjectivity and interrater reliability in this.

If now I go to a gas station, pick up the hose and the machine tells me "Good morning , you have chosen super petrol ", fill the tank, then put the hose in place and the machine tells me" Thank you for using our services. goodbye, "then I must conclude that the machine really think. And more, it also feels thanks. If it were not already know the operation could come to believe that the machine actually knows that I arrived, I wish me good morning and thank use their service. Fortunately, we know how machines work well enough to know that this is not true, and enough to not behave like the typical villager image that comes to town, and when the machine tells "Good morning" he responds "Hello, how are you?" , and angry with the machine not to respond to your question. We say, somewhat Turing was impressed by the technological evolution of the moment and some naive sinned reaching this conclusion, as that "village in the big city."

Anyway, there is something much better to understand this, and do the test yourself. There are lots of programs that simulate the interaction with other individuals through chat *. Myself I did one in his first day on I put on the list. I was quite surprised that I hit a piece as it is translated though, and instead put my name "Turing" because in my opinion gives some humor to the thing to imagine him saying that:


(...) Turing: These are two that go on a bike and falls in the middle. Computer
: Clearly you're not human.
Turing: Yes I am, you are the damn machine.
Computer: No, I'm a real person.
Turing: No, I am the real person. Are you crazy or what?
Computer: Yes, I'm crazy.
Turing: So if you are a computer, what computers you can go crazy?
Computer: I have also emotions, like a human being!
Turing: I knew I was right!

undeniably have their true complexity. "Talking" with Dr. Abuse, also even learn something, I have to talk about how difficult it was Spain win the World Cup. One seeks to find the fault and the topic you know nothing and sometimes surprised. It is also true that sometimes have systems go unnoticed if they have memorized answer, but it is easier to brew than it seems.


To counter this theory appeared exaggerated idea of weak AI , which believes that only when the machine simulates intelligence serves as a means of understanding how human cognition, but the computer itself has no inner experience or self-consciousness, or intentionality, but simply a useful descriptive model of operation. It was Searle who the metaphor of "The Chinese Room" (1980) contradicted Turing's position. According to Searle, thinking the machine has states of mind and intelligence is wrong. I, not to repeat the example of the Chinese Room [which, incidentally, no longer identical to the existing programs translators] otherwise I shall, and so you have both. Suppose we are now going to Japan and worked as a doorman at a hotel, give us a paper with these instructions:

-When entering a customer say: Konnichi wa
"When you give a tip di: Arigato
"When they leave the hotel di: Sayonara
" When you make a mistake say: sumimasen
saying it could spend weeks without knowing what it is, and therefore, not feel, however complex and extensive than was the list actions and responses that give us (which is what would happen to these programs simulation). Yet anyone who heard you would think you really know Japanese (whatever that interact with the machines might think they are smart). But would you thank in that language because they tell you when you get a tip to say something (indeed, not even tell you what you say when you feel gratitude, I say they say when they give you a tip, feel what you feel). Also is that what you said is due , but could have been a hazing and you, naive, with a smile say something rude to the customer, you do not know what you say, you're just "programmed" to do so, as the machine the gas station. Computers in the Turing test, therefore, is to feel and have mental states simply are prepared to give a series of specific answers.


And is that even this would be correct from the point of view of many. Because it does not mean that because something works give the same answers like (feel or not feel) or serve to explain anything. You can reach the same conclusion through different mechanisms.

P.D. Te enjuago

Anuncio colutorio Lacer (P.S. I love you?) P.S. I Love You - One Sheet Poster P.S. I Love You - Promo

feel the quality of the picture, made with the mobile because no plan was to take the camera tomorrow just for this. It may be a coincidence and I'm wrong, but first see the advert just came into my head the lineup of "PS I Love You (PS I Love You, 2007). The fact that it is a recent film does not help to think that has nothing to do. I think there is something more than coincidence in this announcement Lacer mouthwash "To Lacer your mouth are no secrets" . Nor is it a blatant plagiarism, or stolen a great idea, but something curious.

're at it to play the movie, I have not seen it, recommending the soundtrack by John Powell that yes I have heard. Although the whole album is good, overall, as I'm not going to hang full here, I leave this video montage with "Kisses and Cake" . The truth is that I like both the soundtrack that I have wanted to see the movie just for that, although not previously caught my attention. I especially like the part of Cake, which are disk separately (at minute 2:50).

Little White Worms On Cat

Nudismo ("Repor: En Pelotas")

Viewing television yesterday I came across this article about nudism. The program of BBC1 Repor emitted "naked" ( here along with "Shooting Stars" until 10/10/2008). It's always interesting to consider these issues that often arise on any given day. In Spain you can walk naked down the street without any problem, although many say it is not true exhibitionism. Exhibitionism is using it to draw attention to the rest, with the clear intent to shock and scare. Nudism is doing the same as always but naked. There are also people who make indecent dress.


A bit of history.

On the subject of nudity comes shame, and the first thing you should know to understand is to see with a little historical perspective. We began to dress simply by cold, nothing more, that's a fact. What to get the vine leaves in paradise I think I already passed, the first garments were not made to hide anything because most tapaban surely what was the back and certainly gave more heat than a leaf. First it was so abnormal to dress like naked now:
- Abnormal!
- Yes, but what gustirrinín ...

Over time it became customary dress, the norm, and what happens to be abnormal is to go undressed. Such a change takes generations to occur, and eventually all his life have been dressed, so it was rare to see other people naked in the usual context and when they occur may cause minimal surprise, this would be increasing, and come even look for a moment. Nor take long to appear the distinction of sites for men or women, with which it was known who themselves could be seen naked and who is not. There is a vicious circle that describes the situation: we wear because we have modesty modesty but also because we dress. In the beginning was the latter, but is reinforced by the first, this new feeling, a feedback that means that increasingly more of skin conceal and longer.

Thus, the fact that we now have is modesty that came as something temporary for a reason unrelated. To this we can add in recent years that naked not only unusual but also has been used as the main stimulus for sexual arousal, and has been exploited enough, besides giving the character of something forbidden as we know, is one of the things that they want to prove something. If we told children "as you can imagine reading these books you will know" would become great readers. It is an exaggeration, yes, but not going so far off the subject, it is difficult for a child to read if you will cheer and say how wonderful it is but never do.


This, nudism "yes, no, yes or no?

Sometimes when analyzing these things, especially on something as well as nudity is also known as naturism (although it includes most things), it is easy to fall into overestimating the past. It is more in touch with nature or are born naked (also born almost blind, small and shriveled, unable to speak, without morality ...). Not too much of reason as I explained earlier. But is that something has been so at the beginning does not mean you go on, things change, you have to do is try to make it wisely. True, we should not be scandalized by nudity and there is nothing to hide, and that is something that should be changed (this mania to consider a naked body and is immoral and pornographic). But that should not go naked seem odd not have to mean you have to go always naked. Why would not be strange that all men of the world could dress in hot pink does not mean that every man in the world have to dress in hot pink. It could be another form of dress: "Today I have blue shirt, pink ... or nothing?". But then, as we do not dress the same way everywhere, we could not go naked everywhere.

And you can not deny that how we dress is any indication, and how we do too. Many people call prejudices, but there are a lot of prejudice with prejudice . For starters, content can vary, but prejudice itself is inevitable. And is implicit and call it ugly sounds in social psychology is a term that is both a bit technical and a little understatement: TIP (Implicit Theory of Personality). This means we saw a characteristic feature can be attributed to that conduct, a way of being. This can be personal, acquired by experience "Look, I've gone with 3 blondes and repeat step because they are all ..." Or less superficial "a person who smiles and can not be bad" , and also acquired from other oral or media. They are a form of superstition which in turn is only a problem caused by our virtue of linking events with better or worse results.

So what makes us get dressed? In addition to pockets and clothing, to dress is also a form of communication. Not all wear the same dress as long as not all over our lives. How we dress says something about us and our present state as possible. Not to be confused with the "the way I see stir defines my personality and I am free to wear whatever I want whenever I want" . Usually when an item is said to describe someone's personality is very specific use of a particular garment rather than the personality that we identified as members of a group, and consider these people as the group he belongs. But we are who we are, we know that we can not always be dressed as you like.

The dress also allows us to adorn ourselves, to make us a little different every day. Know if the nudist / naturist tattoo deemed correct, but for example, that would be the only form of decoration that we could afford. And if not, does anyone with tattoos can not be naturalistic? And if we paint the body with something erasable, would that be less nudist naturist or less? There are tribes that are covered, tattoos, paint, and I doubt very less natural.

addition, to dress may be helpful to know what makes somebody work within a community. In a normal trade is to know who works there for his clothes, but also creates confusion, one can go casually Mediamarkt red shirt and jeans, and someone asks a question.

may also be useful to indicate the possible activity that someone does in a moment. Let's say a bus driver is starting up and sees a man running in that direction in a suit: that man is going to miss the bus. But it could also see someone in the same situation in sweats: just exercising.
Or you can tell the status of the person at that time. If we find a friend who is well dressed normally starts depreocuparse by their appearance, we interpret that is going through a bad time in some sense. This can be seen most things but I guess it never too many tracks. You can also go badly dressed normally and if we managed means that it will bind.

Go naked may be impractical, as seen in the story sometimes have to find other ways to bring things up (pockets in the hat, a necklace for mobile and purse ...) and also somewhat is somewhat unhygienic, just as they recognize, to always wear a sarong to sit in which must be very clear on what part you put the ass. I honestly, to have to walk wearing a sarong, I say that in hand, for every time I wear it feels ... for that I have a pair of shorts that do not bother much and so I spent the day taking off and putting the shorts of yore ...

And why deny it, it can also add some taste to dress your eyes, not only because then you can enjoy a naked body, but because the dress can be very good. It is also a source of entertainment: in a nudist village can never play strip poker. In the movie "The King Spaz" (1991) , the nudes was taken to the limit at which the king could not see his wife naked. In one scene he said this:
"And the worst is that now the King wants to see the Queen naked, and you know father, after all husbands want to see their wives naked, eventually all the women to undress their husbands in the world, even thought there will come a day when women go naked into the street, you know how women are when they reveal their secrets.
- Naked women on the street? That's like not putting salt on the food!
And some reason you need.

Posters de Blindness: lo que bien empieza mal acaba

After the good impression they gave me the first Blindess posters, where there was not one that I did not like something, now come and bring the typical poster floating heads that just says nothing about the film, but simply serve to show expensive and more expensive.

At least 3 countries that have failed, Britain, France and Japan (best):

After what they did with the first poster, comes this. What is it transmitted? Nothing. The most important image is also the least you can see, below, a group of people walking milky misled by a passage, although it ignores the fact that it is Julianne Moore's character which the guide, which was noted in the foregoing. But at least it was the part that had something, and instead is the most overlooked.

But of course, are taking me not wanting to see this movie the director of "City of God" (Cidade de Deus, 2002) , Fernando Meirelles , but especially based on the work of the great José Saramago, I think from the first 20 front pages and was wondering how you could make a movie about it, and the farther it seemed complicated, but for now the expectation is that the result will be a minimum acceptable and certainly very good.
