 [No title]
Classical theorists recognized that humans have emotions, but they felt that emotions could be controlled by a logical and rational structuring of jobs and work.
A second group of classical management theorists dealt less with individual workers and their jobs and more with the operation of the total organization.
The administrative principles of the classical theorists were useful to managers as small, owner-manager businesses grew into large companies and corporations.

 Encyclopedia :: encyclopedia : Number   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
Iterating the adjunction of imaginary units allows to extend complex numbers to quaternions H, losing commutativity of multiplication, and then to octonions, losing associativity and thus leaving the category of associative division algebras.
Elements of function fields of finite characteristic behave in some ways like numbers and are often regarded as a kind of number by number theorists.
Numbers should be distinguished from numerals, which are (combinations of) symbols used to represent numbers.

Greenberg wrote, “I’ve written quite a bit about the McCarthyism of financial markets in the wake of attacks by conspiracy theorists of journalists, short-sellers and others who dare point out possible problems with public companies.
In my blog over the weekend, several of those conspiracy theorists, including an alleged journalist, attempted to smear my recent posts here questioning whether a key witness in the Senate Judiciary Committee hearings into short-selling and independent research had a relationship with Overstock.
They contended they knew who gave me a document, that the person who gave me the document was conflicted and that I should’ve disclosed the source because of the conflict.

 BREITBART.COM - 9/ 11 Conspiracy Theorists Thriving
Members of the conspiracy community "practically worship the ground (Jones) walks on because he's seen as a scientist who is preaching to their side," said FR Greening, a Canadian chemist who has written several papers rebutting the science used by Sept. 11 conspiracy theorists.
Jones focuses on the relatively narrow question of whether molten metal present at the World Trade Center site after the attacks is evidence that a high-temperature incendiary called thermite, which can be used to weld or cut metal, was involved in the towers' destruction.
Judy Wood, until recently an assistant professor of mechanical engineering at Clemson University, has been cited by conspiracy theorists for her arguments the buildings could not have collapsed as quickly as they did unless explosives were used.

 After WTC, conspiracy theories abound- The Times of India   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
As thousands of people who have lost their loved ones in the world's worst terrorist carnage painfully search for answers, conspiracy theorists, a flourishing tribe that comes to life after every major world event, are spinning their usual yarns.
Rumour, innuendo, distortion, falsehood and fabrication are the usual grist for the conspiracy mill.
According to the conspiracy theorists "suspicions had increased further after Israeli newspaper Yadiot Ahranot revealed that the Shabak prevented Israeli premier Ariel Sharon from traveling to New York and particularly to the city's eastern coast to participate in a festival organized by the Zionist organizations in support of the 'Israel'.

 Chaos politics
Conspiracy theorists and hack politicos both make the same mistake about politics, a failure to acknowledge and understand it as a product of chaotic forces that are beyond control by individuals, organizations, or institutions.
Issues of power are short-lived relative to the long-term political evolution of global society that transcends the geographical and psychic boundaries of nation-states formed essentially to perpetuate arbitrary geopolitical divisions, to hoard resources for some over others.
Given the "advances" in digital and plastic media, show biz has mitigated the collective unconscious as the source of dreams, and the chaotic attractors at the gestation of show biz projects have some form of spiritual indigestion causing nightmares.

 ZPEnergy.com - String Theory: The Good, The Bad and The Bogus
One of the biggest dreams that physicists had for the so-called theory of everything was that it would specify a unique prescription of nature, one in which God had no choice, as Einstein once put it, about details like the number of dimensions or the relative masses of elementary particles.
But recently theorists have estimated that there could be at least 10^100 different solutions to the string equations, corresponding to different ways of folding up the extra dimensions and filling them with fields - gazillions of different possible universes.
Some theorists, including Dr. Witten, hold fast to the Einsteinian dream, hoping that a unique answer to the string equations will emerge when they finally figure out what all this 21st-century physics is trying to tell them about the world.

Much more fun for the theorists than debating the film's merits is trying to explain Hitchcock's motivations and mind games.
The Freudians and their lot have been an especially fecund group of Hitchcockian theorists.
While their work smells suspiciously of academic publish-o-mania (a trait endemic to film theory in general) there are some notable additions to a critical understanding of Hitchcock's work in particular and film theory in general.

 The Albuquerque Tribune: National Government
Widespread resentment and alienation toward the national government appears to be fueling a growing acceptance of conspiracy theories about the 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.
Suspicions that the 9/11 attacks were "an inside job" - the common phrase used by conspiracy theorists on the Internet - have quickly become nearly as popular as decades-old conspiracy theories about the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and the assassination of President Kennedy.
Thirty-six percent of respondents overall said it is "very likely" or "somewhat likely" federal officials either participated in the attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon or took no action to stop them "because they wanted the United States to go to war in the Middle East."

 SCE powerless to stop porn on PSP // GamesIndustry.biz
According to the SCE spokesperson, the releases are "utterly undesirable, but we cannot stop software makers from selling such videos" - since SCE is only responsible for approving game software, not movies.
Conspiracy theorists, however, have been quick to suggest that although SCE may officially frown on the porn titles being released, the firm may actually be happy to see them appear on the UMD format.
The company could well recall, they argue, that its Betamax video format was killed off by the competing VHS format partially because Sony refused to allow porn to be released on Betamax, giving VHS a significant competitive edge in the market.

His chromatic elegance and grace underscore the tune's nuances and subtleties even as he brings the lyric to the fore with extended chord voicings and embellishing the sonorities that echo the piano's more controlled tensions.
In sum, this is a brief but utterly captivating issue from one of the music's great composers and theorists that should not be missed by anyone interested in Towner, of course, but also in melodic improvisation and composition.

 CNN.com - Beijing's doubts over U.S. intentions - February 18, 2002
Despite President George W. Bush's assurances that he wants "positive, frank and sincere" relations with China, a number of cadres and America specialists in Beijing have cast doubt on U.S. intentions.
For example, in an article last week entitled "Fighting hegemonism and fighting the U.S.," theorist Li Hanqiu slammed naïve Chinese who entertained elusions about a partnership with the U.S. Li wrote: "For China, combating American hegemonism will provide a better international environment for reforms in the economy, politics and culture."
In the final analysis, occasional presidential summits and protestations of goodwill are insufficient to remove the underlying distrust between two potential "strategic competitors" in the Asia-Pacific region.

And the reason for this seems to be that Feuerbach wished to argue against those theorists who postulate the existence of an independent and free will, on the one hand, and those, on the other hand, who will not permit self-interest in on the ground floor of moral theory.
Although Feuerbach sometimes refers to the Glückseligkeitstrieb as the basic drive (Grundtrieb), he also employs the term to refer to the aggregate of all human drives, needs, and predispositions.

In a recent paper[1], Berthold Herrendorf and Ákos Valentinyi argue that information about the sectoral performance of TFP differences can help to discriminate among the existing theories.

Herrendorf and Valentinyi argue that in order to understand sectoral TFP patterns, it is important to disaggregate to four sectors, viz.

In retrospect, it looks like the Clinton right-wing news conspiracy theorists may have been projecting based on the known (to them) behavior of their friends at WaPo and NYT.

Sure, his 2003 comedy album, "Party Fun Action Committee," had some hearty laughs, albeit if you were a music industry insider.
And yeah, his 2004 instrumental solo debut for intrepid Canadian abstract groove theorists Ninja Tune, "Music by Cavelight," is great bedtime music, but a little too sleepy for much else.
Though Block tries to grab you with a wash of rhythmic waves and rolls in the same way his contemporaries like DJ Shadow, Diplo and RJD2 do, this album is hardly on par with "Deadringer" or "The Private Press."
