Toddler Television

2004-01-25 Thread Gary Nunn


Watching my son, who is just over 2 1/2, it occurs to me he is
significantly more advanced than my daughter was at this age. I think
that my daughter and son were both winners of the genetic lottery when
it comes to intelligence, and I think they are fairly evenly matched in
that area.  Looking back, the major difference is what they have been
watching on TV.

Before I go any farther, and before someone jumps on this, I DON'T make
it habit to make the TV a babysitter. I do  monitor how much they watch
TV and what they are watching. Now, having said that

The major differences are that my daughter grew up watching Barney and
Big Comfy Couch, and my son has grown up watching Blue's Clues and The
Wiggles.

I don't think he is doing anything that any other average 2 year is not
capable of. 

His biggest TV influence has been Blue's Clues. I did a little research
as well as watch a documentary about the show and apparently they take 8
to 10 months to create every episode. That includes the research,
writing, sign offs by several child psychologists and then children that
are their test audience. Also, they air the same episode every day for
one week to give the target age group repetition that helps them retain
what they are watching.

The other influential show is an Australian show called The Wiggles. The
first time I saw this show I would have bet money that they were just
the human version of the TeleTubbies - questionable sexuality and all.
However, after actually watching a few episodes (with an open mind),
they have some brilliant musical talent as well as some great children
singers and dancers. If I am not mistaken, most (if not all) of the
children on the show are kids of the cast and crew. I don't know if my
son is attracted to this show because he is musically inclined, of if
this show has been influential in helping that talent develop - or both
or neither :-)

Brin-L archives searchable - a real life example.

2004-01-25 Thread Gary Nunn


This is an absolutely perfect example of why you should be careful and
thoughtful about what you post to any archived mailing list.

We have discussed the consequences of having the Brin-L archive (or any
archived mailing list) searchable in the past, but let me share with you
a real life situation where the contents of one of my posts was cut and
interpreted by someone on the internet that I don't know.

During a test of Google and other search engines, I used my email
address as a search term. I ran across a handful of hits from the
mccmedia/Brin-L archives, but I also ran across a comment on someone's
blog about a post of mine that they found in a search.

Apparently, someone wanted to register a domain name that my humble
little company had already registered. He mentioned on his blog that
someone had already registered it.  One of his blog readers looked it up
in WHOIS, found my name and email address and did a web search on them.
They ran across one of my Brin-L postings about the question of turning
Auschwitz into a museum or memorial.  They quoted my posting, name,
email address and hometown in this persons blog, and now it is out there
for anyone to find anytime.  Fortunately, my copied post was not
entirely out of context, but this person, not having read the entire
thread, made some assumptions and comments. This could have very easily
been copied and commented on completely out of the intended context.

Check out the blog here:
http://amish.blogmosis.com/archives/015617.html

No harm done this time, but I believe that this is an excellent example
of what we have discussed in the past about potential employers doing a
search and finding posts or information about you online that may be
taken out of context.

Additionally, this is a very good example of why registering a domain
name and using a proxy company to insure privacy is the way of the
future. An example:  http://tinyurl.com/2ncwj
As some of my domains become active, we have them listed like this for
security and privacy. (If anyone is interested in this, don't use this
company, email me offlist and I'll point you to much better pricing)

Uplift philosophy and demography

2004-01-25 Thread Trent Shipley
UPLIFT PHILOSOPHY AND DEMOGRAPHY


Uplift Philosophy, Ethics, and Scarcity


Uplift is the most important activity in Main Sequence Galactic Civilization.  
Among the Oxygen Breathing Order Uplift is regulated by the Galactic Uplift 
Institute and Tradition.  Tradition further dictates that the interests of a 
race being uplifted be represented by its Uplift Consort, what Terragens 
often call the Uplift Godparent.  The Traditions of Uplift are rich, complex, 
and sensitive to cases and context.  Nevertheless, there are some universals.

Most important, the process of Uplift must be fair, compassionate, and never 
contrary to the long-term interests of the client race.  Also, the any race 
should have high levels of potential, minimizing the amount of genetic 
engineering necessary to produce viable Galactic citizens.  In addition, 
Tradition dictates that extra care must be taken when a client race has 
problematic talents.  Psychic and probability manipulating abilities are 
particularly notorious for complicating uplift projects.

Patrons are encouraged to uplift clients with the intention of fitting them 
into political-economic niches.  Some goals, however, are disallowed by 
Tradition.  Uplift projects cannot produce a race prone to wide-spread 
suffering.  Chronic, widespread physical pain is completely disallowed, and 
psychological suffering is worse.  Also, the project should not result in an 
overspecialized race.  A race is automatically regarded as overspecialized if 
it amounts to an intelligent biological tool.  (This does not mean it is _per 
se_ illegal to produce intelligent biological tools, but a tool-making 
project requires a special, difficult to obtain license approved by both the 
Galactic Foresight Organization and the GUI.)  Finally, any Uplift project 
cannot produce a race with a slave mentality or that is exclusively fit for a 
servile role.

In positive terms, the end product of an uplift project should be intelligent 
enough to read and participate fully as a Galactic citizen.  It should be 
rational.  It should be reasonably independent, and should not require 
continual management by another race.  (It is permissible for two or more 
races to be symbiotic.  In this case all parties to the symbiosis should have 
roughly equal amount of power.  Also, it is desirable that all parties be 
uplifted within the same project.)  Above all, any uplifted race should be 
responsible.  It should be able to understand and conform to Galactic 
Tradition, at least in theory.

Furthermore, any Galactic Citizen should have some abilities.  A race need not 
have all the Traditionally desirable abilities, nor need it regularly 
exercise all the abilities that it theoretically possesses.  One ability that 
a mature race must have is the ability to control its own population.  
Several abilities are highly desirable.  Among these highly desirable 
abilities are the ability to engage in intellectual or scholarly discourse, 
the ability to successfully engage in commerce, the ability of a race to hold 
its own in warfare, the ability to interact with other races and engage in 
diplomacy, the ability to pilot starships, and an aspiration to uplift 
clients.  These abilities are so critical that the lack of any one is 
regarded by many as a serious embarrassment to the patron responsible for the 
lack and a lesser embarrassment to any associated uplift consorts.

Failure to abide by the standards and Traditions of Uplift can result in 
charges of Uplift Malfeasance.  Consequences for convicted patrons or 
complicit consorts can be severe.



Stability and the Number of Races 

The replacement rate for O-2 races is about 1.1 client race per Galactic 
Citizen.  The average life expectancy for a Galactic Citizen from the time of 
its Stage-1 Uplift Ceremony until it Passes On is 1*10^6 hab-years.  At any 
given time there are about 200_000 O-2 races in various stages of development 
and about 550*10^12 O-2 individuals in the Galaxies.  The number of races and 
individuals in O-2 Civilization increases over time.  The rate of increase, 
however, is very slow.  Even over an O-2 races lifespan, the increase in the 
number of Galactic Citizen Races will be imperceptible.

It is widely believed that there is a chronic shortage of quality 
ur-populations.  This shortage is entirely a result of Tradition, 
Bureaucracy, and economics.  First, what constitutes an adequate level of 
potential is somewhat arbitrary.  The Traditional minimum threshold for 
potential is high enough that new candidate ur-populations are fairly rare.  
Also, the tradition that there must be a one-to-one connection between an 
ur-population and its form as an uplifted Galactic Citizen Race.  Logically, 
one ur-population could be used as the source of several uplift projects, but 
doing so is an unconscionable violation of Tradition.  The Tradition 
excluding ur-populations living on fallow planets from uplift candidacy also 
contrib

My son started watching Blues Clues when he was two, soon after the
show started airing. I have to agree, Blues Clues is about as good as
you can get for very young children on television. We also taught him
how to use a mouse (actually a trackball...this works much better
for very small hands) and let him play Blues Clues CD-ROM games on the
PC. I have always thought that this gave him a decided advantage in
learning situations.
Now he is 8 and in the 3rd grade and I don't think he has had a grade
lower than an "A" since the first semester of first grade.
I'm really proud of Rory. This last weeks report card showed him
bringing all his grades up 2 or 3 points. I think he had one 94 and
the rest were 97 or 98. I wish I had done so well in school. Its
really amazing considering how crazy his mom was during our marriage
and the great improvements she herself has made in her own life. She
has done a commendable job in providing a stable homelife for my son.
(And yesI tell her so!)

While fans of the new BATTLESTAR GALACTICA "re-imagining" wait for
official word to find out whether or not The Sci Fi Channel has
decided to take the show to series, we've heard from one of our
trustworthy sources on the matter. According to this Vancouver-based
source, the Channel has given the producers of the new GALACTICA a
six-episode commitment. It just hasn't been officially announced yet.

Debuting to strong ratings, last month's broadcast of the two-part,
four-hour BATTLESTAR GALACTICA mini-series earned the Sci Fi Channel
its third highest ratings ever for a program. The second night of
GALACTICA grabbed a larger share of the audience than the first night.
Usually this kind of good news would be enough to launch the program
into a full-fledged series but the show's high cost per episode (which
is ironically the same kind of issue that led to the original
GALACTICA's swift cancellation after just one season) is contributing
to cold feet by Channel suits. But as our source tells us -- and we
know who they are and their previous established track history is
solid -- the Channel has ordered a half-dozen hour-long episodes. It's
expected that all of the primary cast members from the mini-series
will re-appear in the series version of GALACTICA.
