In Reply to: The lies behind GWS posted by Doug on November 12, 2000 at 12:50:15:
In response to Donny, Frieda, and all others concerned.
: This is a disheartening letter which needs to be heard. America should be irately angry as much as I am, for there is a very huge lie stemming from the government that we do not know can be reversed. Of which I can neither confirm nor deny, that our own high level government officials had a financial interest in the selling of the materials sold to Iraq in the years prior to the War. Including the Nuclear : and Biological base compounds, regenerated, and used against us while we were in the region. You will certainly never hear an admission from Washington DC about the countless 1000s whom have suffered miserably from the irresponsible actions, and whom have since died. They cant ignore the ailing living any longer. It is well past time for Veterans to send the anger back to the creators..
: I am a disabled veteran, whom was highly decorated during tours of duty, in Germany when The Wall came down, in South America at the tail end of the Panama Conflict, and in The Gulf War. I never questioned the methods or mannerisms, just followed the orders to a fault.
: I was in the Persian Gulf, during 1990-1991. I saw alot of elements there which I knew were of a dangerous nature. Little did I foresee just to what extent. I was wounded over there during combat, and still have malingering effects to this day. That is fine, I have learned to live with the discomfort. My dilemma is the US Government's press releases and follow up actions are far from plumb, level, square and accurate.
: Several years ago I started noticing changes with my physiology my moods, being sick quite more often, and the inability to recuperate from cuts, bruises, and general ill health. I seemed to be contracting serious ailments more often; such as, bronchitis and pneumonia.
: Over the years the frequency has greatly increased. All year long, I have been battling severe failing health; beginning with removal of pre-cancerous polyps. Severe incontinence and vomiting blood are certainly not elements that I have appreciated either. Sporatic nerve twitching, and violent muscle spasms are also inclusive of the realm. Having the flu without a fever, or having severe sweating and very high fever, and procuring itching quarter size rashes all over my body, top the list of joys that I experience.
: Over the last few years, I have constantly and consistently inquired about specific tests of diagnoses. The standard answer being the waiting list is very long and you have to go back East, to the major medical centers, or it was simply dismissed as a deep rooted Psychiatric Disorder.
: This year has proven to be especially daunting as all of the elements unfolded into one. Since February's surgery I have had major complications, and have been unable to heal entirelyand to this day, I still have severe abdominal pain, and cramping.
: Due to the fact that I have been so violently ill this year, I have been unable to work with any substinence. I spent the entire months of August, September, & October flat on my back in bed, in alot of pain. I am unable to stay in anyone position to long as it causes fatigue, major weakness, or extreme total boby pain accompanied by massive nerve shocks, or total body numbness. This causing severe financial destruction, only adding to the extremely dangerously high level of depression already set in.
: As if almost by accident, I was just recently made aware that there is help available here, and has been at the very same hospital that I have been frequenting. The Gulf War research clinic has been in place there since 1992!! Imagine my frustration when I heard that?? Why the secrecy and coverup?? Not even the people whom work there know about it.
: I am finally on the way into that clinic for help, but is it too little too late. I am now so tired and weak afetr losing 35 pounds this year, and have such severe muscle ache and fatigue, that it is causing a feeling of Necrosis throughout my entire body.
: After spending 1 week in the hospital, I was strongly encouraged to lose the idea that there is any such thing as Gulf War Syndrome. During all of the MRIs, EKGs, EEGs, EMGs, and multiple blood tests, I remain undiagnosed and untreated. I was never granted the tests which I requested, i.e. DU (Depleted Uranium), Fybromyalgia, Anthrax Poisoning, and several other so called exotic diseases. I still have a high white count, and my body temperature runs between 96.5 and 104 degrees. I still have painful eyes, and alot of vision problems. These were never attended to either. I highly questions the use of medications, which were used anyways, only to send me reeling in pain, and making my condition worse. I was sent home with a myriad of medicines to only partially mask 1 of the problems. I have several adverse side effects that were ignored and the medications not changed. Including whole body nerve tremors, very arthritic swollen painful hands, constant extreme headaches, and severe agitation at everything. They essentially put a band-aid on a torpedo wound. I can hardly walk, if at all, and when I do it is extremely agonizing. Now mobility consists of using a cane. Not a nice option when you are all of 32 years old.
: I used to be very active and highly energetic. I was doing well in private business, and had a budding modeling and acting career. This has all been destroyed. I can only ask ( What If? )

Written by The Business Journal Staff
(AP) — Honest Co., co-founded by Jessica Alba, is denying a news report that said its laundry detergent contained an ingredient that it promised its customers that it would never use.
Alba helped found Honest Co. in Los Angeles about five years ago. It has grown rapidly, selling diapers, soap, lotion and cleaning products that it says are free of "harsh chemicals." Late last year it started selling lip gloss, blush and mascara under the brand Honest Beauty.
The Wall Street Journal, in a report posted to its website Thursday, said it tested Honest Co.'s detergent at two laboratories and found it had sodium lauryl sulfate.
Honest Co. said Friday that the detergent does not contain SLS, but does contain sodium coco sulfate, an ingredient it says is a "gentler alternative." It conducted "rigorous testing" and said the Journal is wrong and "reckless."
The Journal said Friday that its report "is accurate, fair and meets" its standards.
Honest Co. sells its products online and at Target, Whole Foods and other major stores around the country.
Target Corp. said Friday that it had no plans to remove the detergent from its store shelves. Whole Foods Market Inc. did not respond to a request for comment.
Honest Co. is also facing a class action lawsuit from customers who say the company's sunscreen failed to protect them, causing sun burns, according to court documents. That case is still pending and Honest Co. has said its products are safe.

ToxFAQsTM for DDT, DDE, and DDD
September 2002
This fact sheet answers the most frequently asked health questions about DDT, DDE, and DDD. For more information, you may call the ATSDR Information Center at 1-800-232-4636. This fact sheet is one in a series of summaries about hazardous substances and their health effects. This information is important because this substance may harm you. The effects of exposure to any hazardous substance depend on the dose, the duration, how you are exposed, personal traits and habits, and whether other chemicals are present.
Exposure to DDT, DDE, and DDD occurs mostly from eating foods containing small amounts of these compounds, particularly meat, fish and poultry. High levels of DDT can affect the nervous system causing excitability, tremors and seizures. In women, DDE can cause a reduction in the duration of lactation and an increased chance of having a premature baby. DDT, DDE, and DDD have been found in at least 441 of the 1,613 National Priorities List sites identified by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
What are DDT, DDE, and DDD?
DDT (dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane) is a pesticide once widely used to control insects in agriculture and insects that carry diseases such as malaria. DDT is a white, crystalline solid with no odor or taste. Its use in the U.S. was banned in 1972 because of damage to wildlife, but is still used in some countries.
DDE (dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene) and DDD (dichlorodiphenyldichloroethane) are chemicals similar to DDT that contaminate commercial DDT preparations. DDE has no commercial use. DDD was also used to kill pests, but its use has also been banned. One form of DDD has been used medically to treat cancer of the adrenal gland.
What happens to DDT, DDE, and DDD when they enter the environment?
- DDT entered the environment when it was used as a pesticide; it still enters the environment due to current use in other countries.
- DDE enters the environment as contaminant or breakdown product of DDT; DDD also enters the environment as a breakdown product of DDT.
- DDT, DDE, and DDD in air are rapidly broken down by sunlight. Half of what's in air breaks down within 2 days.
- They stick strongly to soil; most DDT in soil is broken down slowly to DDE and DDD by microorganisms; half the DDT in soil will break down in 2-15 years, depending on the type of soil.
- Only a small amount will go through the soil into groundwater; they do not dissolve easily in water.
- DDT, and especially DDE, build up in plants and in fatty tissues of fish, birds, and other animals.
How might I be exposed to DDT, DDE, and DDD?
- Eating contaminated foods, such as root and leafy vegetable, fatty meat, fish, and poultry, but levels are very low.
- Eating contaminated imported foods from countries that still allow the use of DDT to control pests.
- Breathing contaminated air or drinking contaminated water near waste sites and landfills that may contain higher levels of these chemicals.
- Infants fed on breast milk from mothers who have been exposed.
- Breathing or swallowing soil particles near waste sites or landfills that contain these chemicals.
How can DDT, DDE, and DDD affect my health?
DDT affects the nervous system. People who accidentally swallowed large amounts of DDT became excitable and had tremors and seizures. These effects went away after the exposure stopped. No effects were seen in people who took small daily doses of DDT by capsule for 18 months.
A study in humans showed that women who had high amounts of a form of DDE in their breast milk were unable to breast feed their babies for as long as women who had little DDE in the breast milk. Another study in humans showed that women who had high amounts of DDE in breast milk had an increased chance of having premature babies.
In animals, short-term exposure to large amounts of DDT in food affected the nervous system, while long-term exposure to smaller amounts affected the liver. Also in animals, short-term oral exposure to small amounts of DDT or its breakdown products may also have harmful effects on reproduction.
How likely are DDT, DDE, and DDD to cause cancer?
Studies in DDT-exposed workers did not show increases in cancer. Studies in animals given DDT with the food have shown that DDT can cause liver cancer.
The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) determined that DDT may reasonable be anticipated to be a human carcinogen. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) determined that DDT may possibly cause cancer in humans. The EPA determined that DDT, DDE, and DDD are probable human carcinogens.
How can DDT, DDE, and DDD affect children?
There are no studies on the health effects of children exposed to DDT, DDE, or DDD. We can assume that children exposed to large amounts of DDT will have health effects similar to the effects seen in adults. However, we do not know whether children differ from adults in their susceptibility to these substances.
There is no evidence that DDT, DDE, or DDD cause birth defects in people. A study showed that teenage boys whose mothers had higher DDE amounts in the blood when they were pregnant were taller than those whose mothers had lower DDE levels. However, a different study found the opposite in preteen girls. The reason for the discrepancy between these studies is unknown.
Studies in rats have shown that DDT and DDE can mimic the action of natural hormones and in this way affect the development of the reproductive and nervous systems. Puberty was delayed in male rats given high amounts of DDE as juveniles. This could possibly happen in humans. A study in mice showed that exposure to DDT during the first weeks of life may cause neurobehavioral problems later in life.
How can families reduce the risk of exposure to DDT, DDE, and DDD?
- Most families will be exposed to DDT by eating food or drinking liquids contaminated with small amounts of DDT.
- Cooking will reduce the amount of DDT in fish.
- Washing fruit and vegetables will remove most DDT from their surface.
- Follow health advisories that tell you about consumption of fish and wildlife caught in contaminated areas.
Is there a medical test to show whether I've been exposed to DDT, DDE, and DDD?
Laboratory tests can detect DDT, DDE, and DDD in fat, blood, urine, semen, and breast milk. These tests may show low, moderate, or excessive exposure to these compounds, but cannot tell the exact amount you were exposed to, or whether you will experience adverse effects. These tests are not routinely available at the doctor's office because they require special equipment.
Has the federal government made recommendations to protect human health?
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) sets a limit of 1 milligram of DDT per cubic meter of air (1 mg/m3) in the workplace for an 8-hour shift, 40-hour workweek.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has set limits for DDT, DDE, and DDD in foodstuff at or above which the agency will take legal action to remove the products from the market.

I enjoyed reading this presentation that Alexandra Deschamps-Sonsino, co-founder of maker biz Tinker London, gave at Made North. ADS raps about the familiar theme of the decline of traditional industry.
I think that when we talk about industry, most people have a romantic view that ignores the reasons why we stopped "making things" in the first place. One of the reasons why industrial times was so successful was partly because we had no qualms about hiring children to work (something Lewis Hine documented very well). Eventually when that was socially frowned upon, we started outsourcing the work to other people's children and developed better technology to do less work. Cheap labour is China's competitive advantage and short of going back to slave labour, the UK cannot go back to "making things" in that sense. Sorry.
I like how her perspective focuses on the UK, which has the additional bugaboo of American titans like Apple and Google stifling UK biz with their success.

|The history of brassieres is inextricably intertwined with the social history of the status of women, including the evolution of fashion and changing views of the body. Women have used a variety of garments and devices to cover, restrain, or modify the display and shape of their breasts. Brassiere-like or bikini-like garments are depicted on some women athletes in the 7th century BCE in the Minoan era. Similar functionality could be achieved by both outerwear and underwear. From the 16th century onwards, the undergarments of wealthier women were dominated by the corset, which pushed the breasts upwards. In the latter part of the 19th century, various alternatives were experimented with, such as by splitting the corset into a girdle-like restraining device for the lower torso, and transferring the upper part to devices suspended from the shoulder. By the early 20th century, garments more closely resembling contemporary bras had emerged, although large-scale commercial production did not occur till the 1930s. Since then bras have replaced corsets, although some women prefer camisoles and a minority go without. Brassieres are a multi-billion dollar industry dominated by large multinational corporations. During the 20th century, the emphasis on brassiere usage has shifted from functionality to fashion.

Pearl Harbor Day
December 7, 1941. This date was permanently burned into the memory of an entire generation, and more than 65 years later it still holds as one of the most notorious dates in American history.
It was the day of the attack on Pearl Harbor, and a day that changed the world forever. Just before 8a.m. that morning, a group of Japanese planes approached the unsuspecting naval base. They arrived without warning, and without a formal declaration of war.
As the planes coasted over the American base, they unleashed a fury of firepower that quickly sank half of the battleships stationed at Pearl Harbor. The assault was brief, but highly effective. Japanese Zero Bomber Planes were lightning fast and heavily armed.
America lost more than 2,000 people to the brutal attack. Over 1,200 more were injured. The assault consisted of two separate groups of Japanese bombers that damaged or destroyed a large number of American ships, planes and equipment.
This attack was intended to discourage America from declaring war against the Japanese Empire. It had the opposite effect. Although Pearl Harbor was a message warning the U.S. to ignore the aggressive behaviors of Japan, Germany and Italy, the event rallied people together and motivated the entire country to get involved.
Japan's attack weakened American forces, but strengthened their resolve. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt proclaimed that December 7 would be a day that would live in infamy, and Congress declared war on the Japanese Empire. Our soldiers heard the call and prepared for battle.
On December 11, Japanese allies in Germany and Italy declared war on the United States. This plunged the U.S. directly into World War II. Within four years the war would come to an end, with the Japanese and other Axis powers surrendering. America emerged victorious.
At PeopleFinders, we remember the attack on Pearl Harbor with reverence, and we proudly stand to salute the brave men and women who went to war for their country … then and now. We thank everyone who has served this country for their commitment, selflessness and tireless defense of our way of life.
Now and then we hear from people who were able to find their long-lost military buddies through our People Search service. We are honored to help these veterans reconnect with people who served their country together. If you have a story to tell about how PeopleFinders helped you find a military buddy, please share it here.
We will always remember December 7, 1941. Not just for the horrific attack, but also for the aftermath in which America proved that we would not be bullied, we would not roll over and we would fight for the freedoms we hold so dear. Stay strong, America; and thank you for reading the PeopleFinders People Search blog.Tags: America, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Military, Pearl Harbor, U.S.A.

(Pocket-lint) - Boy, what we wouldn't give for Lego to expand its range to encompass the world of videogames. Why stop at Batman, Harry Potter, Star Wars and Pirates of the Caribbean sets? Surely the worlds of Halo, Ghost Recon, Call of Duty and Gears of War would make for excellent themes for the Danish toy bricks.
Come on, even a minifig or two would do.
Sadly, Pocket-lint will eat its hat if we ever see Deep Space Lego. Indeed, we'll eat your hat too, if you've got one. And the chances of ever seeing official Nathan Drake or Agent 47 from Hitman minifigs are slim to none.
Thankfully, Andrew Pescovitz has been hard at work doing his own customisations, and photographing them for his photostream at Flickr. Listed under the name Pecovam, some of his efforts are truly stunning, not least a mighty range that are Halo-inspired. And we've only published a fraction of his efforts here, we thoroughly advise that you check the rest of them out.
Now, if only he'd do us the blob out of Silly Putty. Mind you, a normal minifig and a cigarette lighter would probably have the same effect.

Prof Aids Quest for Possible Alzheimer's Treatments
Partnership Seeks Ways to Develop Therapeutic Uses for Promising Compounds
Researchers at UT Dallas and Southern Methodist University have partnered with a private company to develop potentially groundbreaking treatments for neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's, Huntington's and Parkinson's.
Dr. Santosh D'Mello, professor of molecular and cell biology at UT Dallas, and Dr. Ed Biehl, professor of chemistry at SMU, published their findings in a recent issue of the Journal of Neuroscience Research showing that a family of novel small molecules proved effective in reducing neuronal loss in tissue culture and animal models of neurodegenerative disease.
Neurodegenerative diseases afflict millions of American costing the U.S. economy hundreds of millions of dollars annually. There are no effective cures for these brain diseases.
"The protective effect they display in tissue culture and animal models of neurodegenerative disease provide strong evidence of their promise as drugs to treat progressive and fatal human neurodegenerative diseases," D'Mello said.
By partnering with the Dallas-based startup company EncephRx Inc., D'Mello and his colleagues hope to hasten clinical trials and devise human therapies using these compounds. Under an agreement with SMU, the UT Dallas Office of Technology Commercialization negotiated an exclusive license with the company for the jointly-owned compounds as a result of an inquiry from FirstStage BioVentures, parent company of EncephRx.
The family of compounds, called benzoxazines, was tested first in neurons cultured from rodent brains and induced to degenerate in tissue culture dishes by blocking neuronal activity. During this process, researchers noted a specific compound identified as HSB-13 proved protective against cellular degeneration. The compounds were synthesized in Biehl's laboratory.
D'Mello's team previously tested similar compounds, but found they had toxic effects at high concentrations. By further isolating structures within those compounds, they identified small molecules that protected nerve cells against damage and showed no measurable toxicity, even at higher doses.
Researchers also tested HSB-13 for potential use in treating Huntington's Disease, a genetic illness causing progressive, irreversible brain damage. The compound was used in an animal model for Huntington's and showed reduced loss of brain cells and improved behavioral performance. In collaboration with Dr. Doris Kretzschmar from the Oregon Health and Science University, Dr. D'Mello and his team also applied the compound in a fruit fly model for Alzheimer's disease and observed that flies receiving HSB-13 lived longer than those that did not.
"These are very promising, early signs of therapeutic potential in people. Obviously, additional research needs to be done, but these compounds have the potential of slowing or stopping the relentless loss of brain cells in diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease," D'Mello said.

Today is the one-year anniversary of the due date for the sweet child we lost. The passing of time has made it easier, but the loss of our baby still hurts. I wonder if the pain will get less once we are done having children and our family is "complete". But for now it sort of feels like something is missing.
And while I am sad that I was never able to hold that baby in my arms and watch her grow and see her smile, I now have Naomi to hold and her smile brings a joy to my heart that I didn't think was possible. God's plans are different, but so much better than my own.

One Year
Today is the one-year anniversary of the due date for the sweet child we lost. The passing of time has made it easier, but the loss of our baby still hurts. I wonder if the pain will get less once we are done having children and our family is "complete". But for now it sort of feels like something is missing.

Naomi is Famous!
So you know how I said that we met the Pioneer Woman and that she even tweeted me about how amazing Naomi is? She not only posted some cute pictures, but she gave Naomi her own blog post! I'm such a happy mama! And still star struck. And my love handles are getting bigger from the things I've made from her cookbook :) It's delicious!

I'm Not Sure
I'm not sure when this little girl grew up. I must have pricked my finger on a spinning wheel and fallen asleep for a while, because it really does not seem like she should be this big already.

How To Anger A Breastfed Baby
Give her one of these...
We've waited too long to introduce the bottle to Naomi so now, at 5 months old, she wants nothing of it. The screaming and stiffening of the entire body that accompanies an attempted feeding would make you think we were feeding her mud. I even bought that bottle up there - it's supposed to feel and work like a real breast, even giving the feeling of the "let down" for them. She was interested in it, even chewed and gnawed on the nipple of it a little, but once some of the milk (breast milk, mind you!) got in her mouth, she wasn't having any more of that.
Jared spent at least 30 minutes with her screaming, trying to get her to take the bottle. She finally started drinking it a little, but was very slow doing so and was easily distracted. We're going to keep trying to give her one feeding from a bottle each day. If anyone has any wisdom on this matter, please pass it along!

Star Struck
I am so star struck right now. And just a wee bit on Cloud 9. I met the Pioneer Woman yesterday! I've been slightly obsessed with her blog for a while now. If you haven't been to her site, you have to check it out. She's a city girl who ended up marrying a cattle rancher so now she's living out in the country with her husband, four kids, and lots of cows. Her writing is hilarious and she has a whole section on her blog about photography. She dumbs down the basics of working a digital SLR camera so that even I can understand it. We bought a nice camera a few months back and through her articles on things like aperture and shutter speed, one day I might just know how to take a decent picture!
Anyway, back to my star-struck-ness. I saw on PW's site (PW = Pioneer Woman... she calls herself that, I'm not some crazy stalker fan giving her a cutesy nickname:) that she was going to be in Orlando having a book signing and it was during the time that Dusty & Arin & co. were going to be in Deland, so I saw a two-bird-one-stone situation on my hands. Jared took the day off work and we headed to Deland. We had a great time visiting with them, seeing their new house that is in the process of being fixed up for them to move into (it's going to be so adorable!), and looking at a potential vacation spot on the river. After our visit, we headed to Orlando to meet Ree (PW's real name)!
We got there at 6:15 (it started at 6:00) and did not leave the book store until right at 10:00. I kept thinking, "We drove all this way. I don't want to have driven all the way to Orlando to buy a book I could have bought in Jacksonville." And Jared, my sweet, sweet husband was so patient and said he didn't mind waiting. So we waited. And waited.
And then we finally met her! See, the thing about her book signings is that she often takes pictures of some of the people who come to meet and she puts the pictures on her blog. And I've noticed that she tends to favor a certain group of people: babies. And what do you know, we just happened to have two cute little girls, in particular, one adorable baby who was being oh so smiley. And when Jared showed off the little trick he's done with both his girls, Ree grabbed her camera and started snapping pictures.
She had been there for longer than we had with a smile on her face the entire time, and I heard her tell someone a few people ahead of us that she had to take her youngest to the ER the night before and they didn't get back from that till 7:30 that morning, and that was after two days at Universal Studios so I know she was exhausted. But she was still as sweet as could be and I was star-struck! I said something super cool like, "Hi". At least I didn't spill any hot tea on her lap. I only now wish I had thought to buy a handful of books to have her sign for the ladies in my family and my friends as Christmas or birthday gifts!
My star-struck-ness was taken taken to the level of Cloud 9, when on the way home I saw that she tweeted me!
I had tweeted... "We met the P-Dub! @thepioneerwoman was so sweet and she took some pics of Naomi standing in Jared's hand :)"
To which she replied... "@therollinsworld That was an incredible baby trick! I'll be posting photos for sure. Nothing short of amazing."
So I'll now be stalking her blog even more, waiting to see my baby and her chunky thighs on ThePioneerWoman.com
(I made her French breakfast puffs for breakfast this morning... HEAVENLY!)

New Paint Job
I'm never ever painting ever again. I'm done. Over it. We've lived in our home for almost three years now, and for almost three years we've said, "Why on Earth did they choose such a blah shade of beige? Why did they paint the trim such a dull color? I'm being choked by taupe." So instead of complaining about it and talking about how much we didn't like it, we finally did something about it. And you will probably laugh when you see the pictures because you really can't see much difference in the Before & Afters. The foyer, dining, and long wall the piano is on is a light yellow and the rest of the living room is a light grey with a slight hint of a green. It's a subtle change, but it freshens and lightens the room up a lot. And because every design show you will ever watch will mention the word "zen", I'll go ahead and just say that the colors lend a real zen feel to the space.
The foyer
Dining room
Living room
Living room... with the addition of a step ladder and the old blankets to be used as drop cloths
Did you notice those nice and high 12-foot vaulted ceilings? They were one of the selling points of the house for us. A great architectural feature. Also, a great pain in the rear to paint. Or so I assume. My nearly 6 foot tall husband was stretched up on a ladder doing that part. So, no more painting for us ever again. We're done. Most likely. Except that our bedroom is still beige. And the trim of our bedroom is painted in the exact same color! Who does that?! The taupe is choking me once again. I'm off to look at paint samples.

All in the Family
This is what happens when you grow up in a small town...
What this chart doesn't show is that Gavin, who is now my brother-in-law, was also my date to the senior prom and that he graduated with me, Shannon, and Kristina. If they wouldn't kill each other within the first week of marriage, I'd say that Gavin and Kristina should get married to add another colored line into the mix.

Here is Karl Denninger's take on the possible outcomes of Bernanke's stunt yesterday. It is sobering, and I believe in the realm of possible outcomes. It is the result of the negative spiral I mentioned where people sell their bonds and treasuries to the only bidder left – the U.S. government.
He is correct that wages cannot keep pace with the onslaught, as I've mentioned because we are in an "open" system where our capital and international capital is free to leave. Thus, the result may be the opposite of the hyper-inflation most people expect. He explains this well, make sure you read this ticker.
Bernanke Inserts Gun In Mouth…
Yes, his scenario is possible. Yes, if you have the means to prepare, consider it a hedge.

Because of being compatible with various Java libraries and tools, we decided some time ago to use Java. We also wanted to start of with a HTML GUI to MetWare, which led us to Java Server Faces. Not being so fond of Tomcat (e.g. use by the NMRShiftDB), I was not sure how that would turn out, but Steffen was rather positive about it. And I like it :)
The source code for this screenshot is rather simple:

Key concept here is that JSF uses Java Beans, which are referred to in the above example with code like #{bean.field} for bean fields, and with #{bean.method}, assuming a bean exists with getField(), setField() and method(). The <h:outputText> stuff is JSF to work out bean details and will create HTML in the output. As really brief intro.

Monoisotopic Mass:

min=<inputText id="monomassmin" value="#{metidMetaboliteQuery.monoisotopicMassMin}"/>

max=<inputText id="monomassmax" value="#{metidMetaboliteQuery.monoisotopicMassMax}"/>

<commandButton value="Search" id="submit" action="#{metidMetaboliteQuery.search}"/>

<dataTable value="#{metidMetaboliteQuery.results}" var="mbolite">
<facet name="caption">Search Results...</facet>
<facet name="header"><outputText value="Monoisotopic mass"/></facet>
<outputText value="#{mbolite.monoisotopicMass}"/>
<facet name="header"><outputText value="InChIKey"/></facet>
<outputText value="#{mbolite.inchikey}"/>

<outputText id="tabelName" value="#{metidMetabolite.prefLabel}"/>:
<outputText id="tabelDef" value="#{metidMetabolite.definition}"/>
The Metware Beans
It is clear that java beans for Metware would be useful, and this is what I have been working on for the last few weeks. The relevant beans for the above example are automagically created from the SKOS, complemented with extra bits of RDF for the additional details, like field data type, mapping to SQL tables, and an example value. This all works very smoothly (the code to load() and save() into the SQL database is automatically generated too!) as you can see in the above example. The screenshot shows matches from a (local) live SQL metabolomics database. The text on the right side is directly taken from the SKOS.
Now, the bean library allows integration with other tools too, though this cannot be found in our current roadmap. But, for example, I have been thinking about a simple Bioclipse wrapper around these beans. What is on our roadmap involves workflows for metabolomics.

James Franco admits to 'bad judgment' in flirting with teen
Here's one you don't often see in Hollywood. James Franco admitted Friday that he flirted with Scottish 17-year-old Lucy Clode on Instagram and through text messages.
Leaked online earlier this week, the messages show the 35-year-old actor tried to convince Clode to hook up at a New York hotel.
Friday on "Live! With Kelly and Michael," the Palo Alto native initially stumbled to explain himself but then offered a full confession.
"I didn't want to come on the show and feel awkward, so, yeah, I mean I guess, you know, I'm embarrassed, and I guess I'm just a model of, you know, how social media is tricky," he said. "It's a way to meet each other today. But what I've learned I guess just because I'm new to it is like, you don't know who you're talking to, and you know? So I used bad judgment. I learned my lesson."
On April 2, Franco met Clode outside his Broadway show "Of Mice and Men" and asked her to tag him on the Instagram video she took of him. That eventually led to a flirtatious exchange that culiminated with Franco writing, "You're single? What's the hotel? Should I rent a room?"
Franco, the star of "Spring Breakers" and the upcoming "Palo Alto" based on his short stories, told "Live" hosts Kelly Ripa and Michael Strahan that he made a mistake. "Unfortunately in my position, I mean I have a very good life, but not only do I have to go through the embarrassing kind of rituals of kind of meeting someone, sometimes if I do that then it gets, you know, published for the world so now, you know, it's like doubly embarrassing."
Ripa was the first to commend Franco for owning up to the truth. "I think the way you came out here and handled it is perfectly acceptable. It happens to everybody," she said. "And I think it happens to movie stars on a much grander scale, like you just said, because everybody knows who you are."
Then Ripa jokingly added, "I promise I will not reveal our text messages to the world!"
Franco joked right back. "I was sending some good ones backstage."

Universal Avionics introduces one of its flagship features of the new avionics package in the redesigned Next Generation MD Explorer, a cursor control for the advanced display system as an integrated part of the collective. This "point and click" philosophy brings advanced technology into the flight deck of the redesigned Explorer, which is set to be the first helicopter in the light-twin market to feature such a system.
The "point and click" display control for the Next Generation MD Explorer flight deck is designed to use a Cursor Slew Switch mounted on the primary flight controls. This control enables the pilot to easily change frequently used EFIS selections while maintaining positive control of the aircraft.

Berklee Launches $100 Million Campaign: Soundbreaking
Berklee announces the launch of Soundbreaking: The Campaign for Berklee, a $100 million campaign and the largest fundraising effort in the college's 69-year history. Berklee celebrated the public kick-off of the campaign on June 12 at Symphony Hall with a performance that featured Berklee alumna Melissa Etheridge and student and alumi artists backed by Keith Lockhart and the Boston Pops.
With nearly $57 million raised in the campaign's quiet phase, including $3.7 million pledged by Berklee faculty and staff through annual giving, Soundbreaking has already surpassed the total of Berklee's previous campaign, Giant Steps, which raised $54.5 million from 2006 to 2011.
Half of the target fundraising goal has been earmarked for scholarships and financial aid for students, and funds raised via the campaign will be directed toward fulfilling three overarching goals:
Create a global laboratory for musical discovery and artistry. The campaign will fund programs designed to inspire new musical ideas and collaboration on a global scale, including the Berklee Popular Music Institute (BPMi), the Institute for Creative Entrepreneurship (BerkleeICE), the Berklee Global Jazz and Mediterranean Music institutes, among other initiatives, and support new facilities such as the 16-story 160 Massachusetts Avenue building in Boston, and the college's campus in Valencia, Spain.
Promote the power of music to change people's lives for the better. Funds will support programs such as Berklee City Music and Amp Up NYC, which make music education accessible for high school students across the country; music therapy, where students learn to use the healing power of music by working with soldiers with PTSD and reviving the memories of Alzheimer's patients; and Berklee's assistive technology lab for blind and visually impaired students.
Transform the current model for higher education. Spiraling costs of higher education in the U.S. make it increasingly difficult for students to attend or stay in college, while those who graduate often find themselves burdened with significant debt. Berklee is developing a wide range of offerings—scholarships, articulation agreements, online degrees, and MOOCs—to help curb student debt and make music education more affordable.
"Music can change the world, and at Berklee, we aspire to be a force in creating the innovations that change music," said Berklee president Roger H. Brown. "We want Berklee to serve the most talented students in the world and this campaign will help make that possible."
Soundbreaking comes on the heels of Giant Steps, the college's first large-scale fundraising campaign. Giant Steps raised $54.4 million to fund scholarships to bring the world's best young musicians to Berklee regardless of need, programs such as Berklee City Music and the Berklee Global Jazz Institute, renovations of campus facilities, faculty fellowships, and more.
Berklee is the largest and the leading contemporary music school in the country, recently named No. 1 by the Hollywood Reporter. With 4,000 students on campus in Boston and Valencia, Spain, and more than 500,000 online, Berklee continues to reimagine how music can be taught, performed, and presented around the world.

I have returned from my fourth Blizzcon, and I am absolutely exhausted! But since I didn't have the foresight to take today off, I figured I may as well give you my thoughts, impressions and accounting of how I spent my time at this year's Blizzcon.
Blizzcon in General
This is the first year that they didn't have a huge announcement for Blizzcon. We expected that, so weren't hugely disappointed by it. Most things with the convention were the same, however there seemed to be a fair lack of "new" games to play. Outside of Diablo 3 and the mini-games that they built for the StarCraft engine nothing was really worth waiting for. And, not being a Diablo player (although 3 looks pretty awesome, so I will likely pick it up and give it a try), even the Diablo line wasn't worth waiting in for me.
Some of the vendors were worth taking a peek at, many of the "give aways" also had ridiculously crazy lines, which ultimately made it difficult to actually go up and get information on the items they were there to demo if you wanted it – but that is to be expected and is largely the same at any convention that you are going to attend. Some of the vendors handled this much better than others.
That being said, the convention was largely what we expected going into it this year.
The Panels
This year they situated the main hall long ways across the space, and while I do think that I liked this better, I also think they could have used a few more of the drop monitors throughout the seating. Other than that, the seating seemed fine.
But what I really wanted to touch on is the format of some of the panels.
Now, most of the panels that were offered were the Devs giving us a bit of a blurb and then opening it up for some questions at the end. I generally enjoy this format. I get to see what's coming up, and then have the option to leave when the Q & A starts if I don't want to sit through it, yet still feel like I got something out of the panel.
This year, both the Class Discussion and the General WoW panels were open Q & A. And this was terrible.
I'll be honest here, I am generally not a big fan of most Q & A type sessions in any setting. This is because only about 1 out of every 15 or 20 questions is worth asking. Usually it's something that already been covered, and now it's just rehash. However, I also largely hate it because there is always that person. You know that one I'm talking about! The person that doesn't really have a question – but really wants to ask one anyhow. It drives me nuts.
I was highly disappointed this year that two of the WoW panels were in this format.
I really think that this could have been structured better if people were required to input well thought out questions in advance, and then those questions were filtered through to find ones that are pertinent, relevant and worth asking. Alternatively, ask them in the order they were received – but still take them in advance. Don't let that guy get up there with the mic to ask his question, follow up his question, make a fool out of himself, and subsequently waste everyone's time!
Hopefully next year, we won't have panels that are pure Q & A sessions. At least that is my hope!
The Costumes!
This is by far my favorite part of Blizzcon. I absolutely adore the costumes – and if you followed me on Friday on Twitter I posted as many of them as I could from the photos I was able to grab during the day. Someone asked me if I intended to compile them, and I do. I will hopefully be able to get them uploaded and up in the next day or so.
One of the things that I love about the costumes is the creativity. From the simplest, to the most intricate, I think that the costumes are just amazing. If you are able to get up close with any of them you can really see the effort that went into them – and it's astounding. It truly is.
Now – the only bad thing about it this year was that ridiculous stage design with the huge ramp. Hopefully they rethink that next year. Additionally – while the hooves look really cool, if you can't walk of your own volition, even on a flat surface, probably not the best costume! If you want to use the stilt/hooves for the cosplay, take the time to walk in them every day so that you are 100% comfortable with them. I do suspect that next year we will see a "must be able to walk of your own accord" rule to be placed into the costume contest 🙂
However, this still remained one of my favorite things about the Convention. And I had an enormous amount of fun looking at them all.
The Tournaments
I am not a huge fan of the e-sports, so I don't get quite as excited about the tournaments. However, I did want to take a minute to say that during some of the larger tournaments the venue was very akin to that of a sporting event. The cheers, the tension, the gasps at a bad play. And I will also admit that it's a little bit hard not to get involved in it by default.
While it was certainly not the reason for the convention for me, and it's not something that I, personally, would actively seek out, I will state that the charge in the audience was very cool.
Plants vs. Zombies
Well – in some of the downtime as we basically held our seats between events, I shanghaied Brade's phone and started playing Plants vs. Zombies. And OMG IT IS AWESOME! How could you guys not have told me how amazingly fun this game was before! I am almost at the final level of the game, and I've had a blast playing this quirky little game.
And the best part is that it's "training" for the version that's going to be in WoW come Cataclysm! STAY OFF MY LAWN – THAT SUNFLOWER PET WILL BE MINE!
In all seriousness though, if you haven't checked this little popcap game out, it's worth it. You can get through it pretty quickly, and you'll more likely than not enjoy the game!
The Meet Ups
In our previous years at Blizzcon, we mostly stayed to ourselves, only doing things with other members of our guild that had attended.
Since our last Blizzcon, I've continued blogging and become active in the twitter community. And, in a way, I've come out of my shell a little bit. So I decided that this year I wanted to take part in more of the social events surrounding Blizzcon – and picked a couple of events to attend. For some people this wouldn't be a huge deal, but for me this is pretty big.
I tend to be somewhat socially awkward in huge crowds. And that really hasn't changed. I'm largely a little bit timid about just "getting out there" – and tend to kinda just do my own thing. This also hasn't changed much. I tend to talk…A LOT when I'm nervous. I also tend to talk very fast. So for those of you who met me and I just chattered…sorry! Nerves!
Now, Brade is a lot like me, only even more anti-social. But he was game to accompany to both the WoW Insider meet up and the Twisted Nether meet up. As well as the EJ flex photo (which we originally weren't planning to take part in, but opted to at the last minute with some encouragement). And I am extremely happy that we got outside of our box (comfort zone) some and did these things. I ended up meeting some really cool people. Some that I had "known" before from the community, and some that I hadn't.
And while I'm not the social butterfly that others are, and I'm most certainly still socially awkward, I am absolutely pleased that we took part in these events and honestly, they were part of what really made Blizzcon for me this year – and will likely strongly influence our decision on if we go back next year.
For those of you that may go to Blizzcon next year, no matter how socially inept you think you may be, I can't encourage you enough to take part in some of the community meets that happen. After having done a small bit of them this year, I realized how much of the convention that I truly missed out on in previous years by not participating in them. It really did make Blizzcon memorable for me this year!
Tenacious D
Was awesome.
I was worried as they were doing the sound checks that it would be too loud, and I would end up leaving like I did for Ozzy last year. However that turned out not to be the case, and I stayed for the entirety of the show. And it was amazing. The way that the group really got into the theme of the convention said a lot about them.
I couldn't help but wondering whose idea some of the things were – did Jack Black come to Blizzard and say "let's do this", or was it the other way around? Regardless, the collaboration was fantastic and it really made the show and the fact that the band was such a good sport about it was also amazing.
For those that weren't there, you also might have missed some of the Tenacious D merchandise that was available throughout the day. My personal favorite was the T-shirts with a WoW logo on them that said "Tenacious D" where it would usually say "World of Warcraft". I strongly believe that they way they embraced Blizzcon made their show all the more enjoyable to watch.
It ended up being my favorite closing act by far. Honestly – I would watch them again next year if they came back. I have no idea how Blizzard plans to top them!
The Laptop
You may, or may not, know that I've been looking for a new laptop for when I travel. I've been thinking/looking since about June of this year and have been waffling around about making a purchase. Why am I sharing this in a Blizzcon Update post? Well – as it turns out one of the booths that was set up at the convention was one for Asus.
Now, I have never owned an Asus computer. I've never thought of owning one, and I've been fairly loyal to my Dell/Alienware machines that have always treated me very well. But some of the computers that Asus brought with them and were displaying looked very impressive. And so I spent some time talking to one of the guys there. I wanted to learn more about not only the computers, but the company itself.
I asked – a lot – of questions. And he was magnificent in answering them for me. Honestly, it's too bad that he was part of their R & D team and not in their sales sector and working from commissions. I left feeling impressed by what I heard, and contemplating the purchase of a new laptop from them, especially as they were having a Blizzcon sale for that weekend.
I discussed it a bit with Brade, who had a few more questions, and so we went back to find the guy I had spoken with earlier and asked even more questions. We then went back to the hotel room and did a little bit of research. We built machines with the same set up from other places to get price comparisons (they ran about $1,000 – $1,200 more for those curious), and read reviews on the system we were thinking about getting.
Out of 190 reviews – 111 of them gave 5 stars, 36 gave 4 stars, 14 gave 3 stars, 9 gave 2 stars and 20 gave 1 star. We read through all of the one, two and three star reviews to see what the issues were. We read through a handful of the four and five star reviews. And ultimately we decided to purchase the machine we were looking at.
My only concern was the one star reviews. They ranged from Customer Service complaints to a known video card issue – that has a posted fix for it. But, that didn't keep me from wondering "what if we were one of those people who had a problem?" However the odds were in our favor, based on the number of reviews, that we would enjoy the product, so we decided to give it a try. We figured worst case we'd end up just sending it back, getting a refund and looking for something else.
For those interested here is what we purchased: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834220695
The best part about it? Free shipping, short delivery time, and no sales tax! If there is interest, after we have received it and played around on it a bit, I'm happy to post my thoughts on the machine.
Overall Thoughts?
I had a really good time! At the start of this trip, I wasn't sure that I'd look at attending again next year, but I think that my thoughts on that have changed some, and that I may very well look into going again next year.
Did you watch it from home, attend or read about it? What were your thoughts from Blizzcon 2010?

OK, this is a typical Plummet post , hopefully people will be interested and new tricks or variations will appear. Tricks already published on commercial DVDs should be excluded, I guess, the point being to describe tricks or variations which otherwise will never be known. And, yes, it is not windy here so I have nothing better to do...
My contribution is what I call a hooked sliding 360
- Choose a day that you are decently powered on flat water
- Gain speed on a crosswind - slightly downwind direction
- Very gently get a bit of lift by keeping the kite high and pulling the bar gently (the lift should be just enough to allow the board to slide)
- Look over your front shoulder (like you do for a backroll) and rotate standing up, a pirouette sort of movement
- The board should rotate flat on the water surface by sliding a full 360 degrees
- Keep the speed, exit with speed, edge, done
On choppy water one can do a variation: leave the tail of the board in contact with water while the front of the board is lifted by the front foot (bent knee). In this way the board rotates on a nearly vertical position while the body, again, stays upright, the tail marking a line on the water like on a dark slide.
No leaning back, no pop, no kicking the back foot, no airtime, no video, sorry... Feels nice, looks nice for my taste, easy for intermediate middle aged kiters like myself
