That thing is a patchwork." <br /> Yes mine is too unfortunately. I started work on it during a slow shift at work with MS Paint (when every link we monitor is green it gets boring in Iraq...) and finished it in the KDE equivalent of paint, Kolourpaint. It's a big hack too unfortunately. I will try my hand at recreating it in maybe OO.o draw or GIMP or something. Also I'd like to add more descriptive icons to each layer, such as Tux on the OS layer, Duke on the Java layer and something that represents "programs" on the "Actual Java Program" layer. <br /> In reference to Paint Shop Pro, I've read about Paint.NET, which is an open source "better Paint than Paint." Have you tried it? If I can I'll try and get it working in Mono on Linux :/ <a href="/wiki/User:Eric_M_Gearhart" title="User:Eric M Gearhart">Eric M Gearhart</a></dd></dl> <p><br /> </p> <h2><span id="If_you.27re_rested...."></span><span class="mw-headline" id="If_you're_rested....">If you're rested....</span></h2> <p>..feel free to take her away.

I wonder what the rationale is: my undefrsgtanding is that a numeral is a symbolic or graphic representation of a number. So, it makes sense to call 110 the representation of 6 (thought of as a number) as a binary numeral. The dictionary definition seems to allow not only "digits" but groups of symbols that, taken together, represent numbers as numerals. <a href="/wiki/User:Greg_Woodhouse" title="User:Greg Woodhouse">Greg Woodhouse</a> 13:46, 28 April 2007 (CDT) </p><p><i>Random comment: I responded to your comment about "human-readable" on <a href="/wiki/User_talk:Greg_Woodhouse#Number_and_Numeral" title="User talk:Greg Woodhouse">Greg's talk page</a>. - <a href="/wiki/User:Greg_Martin" title="User:Greg Martin">Greg Martin</a> 15:58, 29 April 2007 (CDT)</i> </p> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Images">Images</span></h2> <p>Hi.

But on flickr, "this photo is public" only means it can be viewed by the public. If you look close, that image is copyrighted, all rights reserved. As flickr, go to their search but choose advanced search and there is a place to search only Creative Commons licenses photos. If you do not find such a photo, just email the person at flickr and ask them to release the photo under a Creative Commons by-sa license. MOST people will say yes. Also, before you use the photo, you have to go into the person's profile. Is their real name there?

OTOH it is not really central to perl and I didn't want to clutter up the main article more than it already is. The reference in the Perl article is actually a negative one, it talks about unreferenced lexical variables going away, closure would be an example for an exception (well, a "hidden" reference actually). If at all, the link would probably fit better in the part about anonymous subroutines, which I wrote as an afterthought. So I am leaning to eliminate the whole thing rather than expanding the stub, or even including it in the main text. But if you want to give it a try, that's fine.

As far as I can tell, no one ever defined the question. </p><p>There is absolutely no need to have a cautionary comment about the quality of data in the introduction about what essentially is a technology article. On the other hand, I think we both realize that enthusiasm was making certain of these technologies solve world peace, give a brain to each pop starlet, and show us the way around the speed-of-light limit. </p><p>It concerned me, however, that the technology was being thrown at problems, and the output described as bright and beautiful, yet there was absolutely no concern about the quality of the input data, the choices of normalizing and combining different data sources, and the inferences about the utility of the output. Google Maps is a good example of a source that people are throwing at problems, without necessarily understanding the discipline-specific constraints on the data. A side benefit of these examples is that I wrote a good deal more about geospatial intelligence. </p><p>Nevertheless, I find mashup to be a ill-defined solution in search of a problem. While I still really can't define it, it appears to be some flavor of what used to be "enterprise dashboards", when they stopped being "executive information systems," but wrapped in a lot of web technologies. I saw quite a few of all of these dazzle nontechnical executives with essentially meaningless data. I've also seen medical and military and network management multiple-sourced displays that very thoughfully address the issues of making justified correlations and not exceeding the inherent accuracy and precision of the information. Sometimes, a good tool is distinguished not by how much information it produces, but by how much irrelevant or distracting information it can remove from raw sources. </p><p>Several questions about mashup still seem unanswered. There's a good deal about how it does things, but very little about the cognitive function it plays, how it differs from ideas such as dashboards, and, in general, why it is needed other than it's a new capability. </p><p>Even ignoring the assumptions about XML being a gold standard for transfer, I remain concerned that anyone assumes that they can happily combine syntactically compatible data sources, with no mention of ensuring their semantic commonality. Call it normalization or postprocessing, but to derive meaning, some preprocessing usually is needed for combining, and, certainly with graphic data, postprocessing to remove artifacts. I thought I was hearing a flavor that Google Maps would displace geographic/geospatial information systems, when they only loosely deal with the same problem space. </p><p><a href="/wiki/User:Howard_C._Berkowitz" title="User:Howard C.

I will, to some extent, defend the problem that people are seeing different practitioners, who <i>could</i> work together, but there is no coordinated care. A conventional physician <b>must</b> know any herbals or dietary supplements the patient is taking, or, variously, a drug could be prescribed and cause a deadly intercation, or laboratory results are completely skewed. If a patient chooses to use an herbal preparation, and the medical prescriber knows it, different choices can be made. </p><p>"Complementary" is not, to reasonable practitioners, a bad word. "Alternative" is a problem, when it is seen as a substitute. <a href="/wiki/Integrative_medicine" title="Integrative medicine">integrative medicine</a> is a paradigm of cooperation. For example, I've been involved with several multiphysician groups that either have in-house acupuncture, manipulative therapies, or routinely cross-refer. I lost a close relative because an "alternative" practitioner decided that his particular discipline would cure everything, and missed basic signs of major internal bleeding. Pain management clinics are very frequently multidisciplinary, which, perhaps, is another way of saying complementary. Physicians often don't know how to teach visualization, meditation, and other techniques that they agree are worth trying in chronic, or even acute pain. I'm as bioscience oriented as anyone you will find, but if I get a headache, I use some learned visualization techniques first -- and take conventional medications if they don't work in 15-20 minutes. I might decide to take acetaminophen and <b>then</b> use relaxation and visualization. </p><p>As a term of art, multidisciplinary tends to involve multiple defined medical specialties and subspecialties, where complementary simply refers to things not in a core medical curriculum. Some of those things, under that definition, are as straightforward as art therapy, therapeutic massage, and manipulation. There are some exciting synergies: certain manipulative therapies can only be done with a patient under anesthesia. That may look like a patient going into an operating room with the anesthesia equipment, then a chiropractor, working with the anesthesiologist, does the manipulation. A friend of mine is a dual-boarded (family and emergency medicine), but also is osteopathically trained and can do the manipulations himself. </p><p>Actually, I rather like the couple of paragraphs above, and may take them to <a href="/wiki/Integrative_medicine" title="Integrative medicine">integrative medicine</a>. I would like to invite everyone to work in that framework, because the whole idea of integrative medicine is about collaboration. <a href="/wiki/User:Howard_C._Berkowitz" title="User:Howard C.

Indeed, I discovered we didn't have an article on <a href="/wiki/Nursing" title="Nursing">nursing</a>. Nurses aren't just physician extenders; there are some particular disciplines and training approaches that complement a medical approach. I've just started to address how much antipathy wa generated by the term "nursing diagnosis" replacing "nursing assessment", but, while there are politics involved, there are certain different but valuable cognitive processes in contemporary medicine and nursing. <a href="/wiki/User:Howard_C._Berkowitz" title="User:Howard C.
