A hurricane roared and raged through the night. And in the middle of the chaos, a cargo ship was sinking down down down to the ocean floor. The ship left hundreds of crates floating on the surface. But as the hurricane thrashed and swirled and knocked them around, the crates also began sinking into the depths. One after another, they were swallowed up by the waves, until only five crates remained. By morning the hurricane was gone. There were no clouds, no ships, no land in sight. There was only calm water and clear skies and those five crates lazily bobbing along an ocean current. Days passed. And then a smudge of green appeared on the horizon. As the crates drifted closer, the soft green shapes slowly sharpened into the hard edges of a wild, rocky island. The first crate rode to shore on a tumbling, rumbling wave and then crashed against the rocks with such force that the whole thing burst apart.

What Bell Did
What Bell Did Tim Maudlin Department of Philosophy, NYU, 5 Washington Place, New York, NY 10003, USA E-mail: [email protected] Abstract On the 50th anniversary of Bell monumental 1964 paper, there is still widespread misunderstanding about exactly what Bell proved. This misunderstanding derives in turn from a failure to appreciate the earlier argument of Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen. I retrace the history and logical structure of these arguments in order to clarify the proper conclusion, namely that any world that displays violations of Bell’s inequality for experiments done far from one another must be non-local. Since the world we happen to live in displays such violations, actual physics is non-local. The experimental verification of violations of Bell’s inequality for randomly set measurements at space-like separation is the most astonishing result in the history of physics. Theoretical physics has yet to come to terms with what these results mean for our fundamental account of the world. Experimentalists, from Freedman and Clauser and Aspect forward, deserve their share of the credit for producing the necessary experimental conditions and for steadily closing the experimental loopholes available to the persistent skeptic. But the great achievement was Bell’s. It was he who understood the profound significance of these phenomena, the prediction of which can be derived easily even by a freshman physics student. Unfortunately, many physicists have not properly appreciated what Bell proved: they take the target of his theorem—what the theorem rules out as impossible—to be much narrower and more parochial than it is.

This album is dedicated to my band. Thanks, folks!” – Ed Palermo, liner notes to Oh No! Not Jazz! “Like Zappa, and Duke Ellington before, Palermo’s main instrument is his band. And with him at the helm is manages to capture perfectly the spirit of Zappa’s music while stamping its own authority on the adventurous arrangements with its exuberant, joyous ensemble playing and in the quality of the solos. Ed Palermo, with impeccable olfactory taste, has done both big band jazz and Zappa’s music a huge service. If you didn’t like big band jazz before, then the riotous, swinging celebration…may well be the record that converts you. If you didn’t get Frank Zappa’s music, then this record may make you consider his vast musical legacy in a whole new light.” – Ian Patterson, All About Jazz “Zappa once famously said “Jazz isn’t dead, it just smells funny.” Ed Palermo is making one hell of a wonderful stink.” – Daniel Spicer, Pop Matters Long revered and celebrated for his insistently inventive jazz arrangements of Frank Zappa compositions, New Jersey saxophonist/composer/arranger Ed Palermo returns with his fourth album featuring his big band playing his jaw-dropping, brain- busting, and wildly antic charts.

Jewel Is an Acclaimed American Singer, Songwriter, Actress, Poet, Painter, Philanthropist and Daughter to an Alaskan Cowboy Singer-Songwriter
WORLDWIDE SPEAKERS GROUP LLC YOUR GLOBAL PARTNER IN THOUGHT LEADERSHIP JEWEL Jewel is an acclaimed American singer, songwriter, actress, poet, painter, philanthropist and daughter to an Alaskan cowboy singer-songwriter. From the remote ranch of her Alaskan youth to the triumph of international stardom, the four-time Grammy nominee, hailed by the New York Times as a “songwriter bursting with talents” has enjoyed career longevity rare among her generation of artists. Her singular style and beauty continuously land her on the covers of such diverse magazines as TIME, People, Entertainment Weekly, Vanity Fair, In Style, Glamour and Seventeen. Stuff listed her among its “102 Sexiest Women in the World” while Blender went further, crowning her “rock’s sexiest poet.” Jewel launched her musical career early on, performing as a father-daughter act in Alaskan biker bars and lumberjack joints. Her solo career took off after she moved to San Diego, where she experienced moderate success in the folk-coffeehouse scene while living out of her car. Her first record, a deeply introspective, modern folk collection called Pieces of You, sold about 3,000 copies, nearly all in San Diego, in the nine months after its February 1995 debut. She then hit the road, touring with and opening for the likes of Bob Dylan, Merle Haggard, and Neil Young. She followed up her debut album with a succession of albums that steadily built her reputation and fan base: Spirit, This Way, and 0304. After a tremendous amount of success as a singer-songwriter and over 27 million albums sold, Jewel returned to her roots with the release of two country albums Perfectly Clear and Sweet and Wild.

IF YOU HIT YOUR HEAD Hard Enough, Your Brain Gets Shaken up Inside Your Skull. You Might See Stars Or Pass out for a Few Minutes
1 IF YOU HIT YOUR HEAD hard enough, your brain gets shaken up inside your skull. You might see stars or pass out for a few minutes, and after that, a bunch of things happen. It doesn’t mat- ter how you got hurt— whether you slipped on ice or had a car accident or fell from a tree. People will start fl ashing lights in your eyes, talking about concussions and traumatic brain injury. And even though your head hurts and you’re exhausted, they won’t want you to go to sleep. They’ll shake you awake every couple hours, shining lights, asking questions. Your head will throb, and you’ll be dizzy, and you might throw up. But that’s not the worst part. The most terrifying thing about hitting your head so hard is when you wake up missing pieces of yourself. Pieces of the per- son you were before it happened. Things you should remember— who found you after you fell from the tree stand, why you were dizzy and hadn’t eaten lunch, KATE MESSNER what kind of bird you were trying to see when you leaned for- ward too far— are gone. Things you could once do— kick a soc- cer ball without losing your balance, play air guitar with your best friend, climb into a kayak, or stand steady on the house boat deck to pinch dead blossoms off the geraniums— all gone. Erased. Whole pieces of you are missing because your brain bumped against your skull. That’s why I wanted to go to I-CAN.

American Society of Plastic Surgeons Closes Loop on Breast Cancer
American Society of Plastic Surgeons Closes Loop on Breast Cancer During First BRA Day USA, October 17 Board-Certified Plastic Surgeons, Singer-Songwriter Jewel and Supporters Across the Country Unite to Educate Women about Breast Reconstruction FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE October 10, 2012 ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, Ill. – On October 17, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) and The Plastic Surgery Foundation (The PSF) will launch the first-ever Breast Reconstruction Awareness (BRA) Day USA, leading the charge to promote education, awareness and access to breast reconstruction following mastectomy or lumpectomy. The statistics are alarming: 7 out of 10 women eligible for breast reconstruction following cancer surgery are not being informed of their options. Studies have also revealed: Eighty-nine percent of women want to see what breast reconstruction surgery results would look like before undergoing treatment for breast cancer. Less than a quarter (23 percent) of women know the wide range of breast reconstruction options available. Only 22 percent of women are familiar with the quality of outcomes that can be expected. Only 19 percent of women understand that the timing of their treatment for breast cancer and the timing of their decision to undergo reconstruction greatly impacts their options and results. “We want to bring the topic of breast reconstruction into the larger breast cancer dialogue,” said ASPS President Malcolm Z. Roth, MD. “Letting women know their reconstruction options before or at the time of diagnosis is critically important to improving life after breast cancer. BRA Day USA is all about inspiring women who are on the road to recovery to a full life beyond breast cancer.” This year, the U.S.
