Those were, indeed, good times, though some of it was through the rosy glasses of nostalgia.
If plant operators had to buy liability insurance on the commercial market, all nuclear power stations would be uneconomic.
Sure, but by the same token, there are large swaths of the continental US of A that, if residents had to buy home insurance on the commercial market, would be utterly uninhabitable.
There is also thirty or forty years of technological advancement in nuclear safety to take into account.
Other countries manage to have independent government elections monitors. It's perfectly doable.
No, the issue here is that the Constitution doesn't specify how the states vote, so there's not much for the Feds to monitor.
Well, the REAL issue here is that the US system didn't work out the way it was intended, and has evolved into a weird chimera system of 'independent states' with a powerful Federal government. But you get my point.
This is the same point I try to make a lot.
There's been a lot of research since WW2 in to what it takes to actually get somebody to be able to respond appropriately in a 'deadly force encounter.' A two day CCW course isn't it. By and large, police training isn't it, either.
Unless you're doing regular training exercises, in real life, using something like simunition, you are very likely to simply be useless when something happens.

What if the Nerd Rage comment HAD been removed?
No one else found that post insulting. Even other members who posted in the thread (Sicne the posts were rather lenghty and off-topic they have been deleted to bring the Bioware/LA thread back on topic) agreed with that. Also, you may see only these posts about the "nerd rage" but there is history behind.
In short, while we have sometimes accomodated Jediphile in the past, it is never enough. Unfortunately, we can't start micro managing the boards according to everyone's whim and sensitivity. Not only it becomes awfully suggestive but if we do it for Jediphile we should do it for others as well and if we were to delete threads, posts and commment everytime someone feels offended, we would be deleting a lot of threads and posts (and likely all the religion threads as some people complain that they find them offensive). As I said above, everything is potentially offensive to someone. I don't count the times where people call each other "nerd" on these boards and it is a generally accepted practice by the community (it's a SW and gaming forum after all!).
That being said, if we think a request to delete or edit is justified according to the forum rules and not a simple whim, we will comply with it, and that applies to Jediphile just as everyone else. When the Source says "grow some tolerance" it should apply to everyone, not only to the staff.
Also, notwithstanding the above, we tend to be more collaborative when members make their requests in a civil manner instead of sending PMs full of insults (that would have earned a ban if they were made to any other non staff member but we went over that and took the time to answer politely) even before they make their requests (and I am not only talking about the current issue).
Finally, the mods are opened to compromise. We are all humans and can make mistakes sometimes, just as anyone else. In fact, we do discuss and review decisions regularly and reverse them when we deem it appropriate. When a member sends us a PM or reports a post, things are investigated and actions are taken when we deem that the forums rules have been broken. However, as mentioned above, we can't comply with every request and moderate the boards to please everyone.

See what Lopez has said this week. I dont see any comment related laws of the province in it !
and beleive me I know Tembec
MONTREAL - Tembec says a pullback in metal prices that prompted mining companies to slow down huge expansion projects in Quebec could help reduce mounting construction costs for the "game changing" Temicaming upgrade at its speciality cellulose mills.
The Quebec-based forest products company has put its most expensive capital spending project in years up for rebidding after high submissions forced it to delay construction last September.
The cornerstone of its two-phased upgrade is a $190-million installation of a high-pressure boiler and turbine that will raise its operating profits (EBITDA) by 40 to 50 per cent.
It has spent $78 million to date, but the planned May 2014 production start is being delayed because of difficulties in finding required construction workers at acceptable cost, CEO James Lopez said Thursday.
He said there has been a change recently because mining companies have altered their own expansion plans in the face of weaker prices for iron ore and other metals.
"We have people bidding on projects now that refused to bid when we went out six moths ago for the same construction project so I think the mining pullback is going to help us," he told reporters ahead of Tembec's annual meeting.
The project is key to the company's long-term success. Lopez said the company is willing to consider selling non-core assets as it focuses on energy projects and the specialty cellulose business that extracts from pulp material that is used in cosmetics, explosive and paint additives.

About FrontYardFarmer
Dennis Gilson, the Front-Yard Farmer, shares information, local insight and advice about growing vegetables, berries and fruit trees in North Florida
By: FrontYardFarmer , 1:29 AM GMT on April 07, 2010
Many thanks to those of you alerting us to the whereabouts of Amelia tomato plants. By all accounts, it now seems as if Amelia tomato transplants are as easy to find in North Florida as piney woods and dirt roads. If you are new to my blog, the reason we are on the lookout for Amelia tomatoes is because they are resistant to Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus. In the recent past, Amelia tomato plants were difficult to find. Now they are available at garden centers from Pensacola to Jacksonville.
Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus is leaving tomato growers across the South seeing spots – if not before their very eyes, presumably all over their tomato plants (just before they shrivel up and die). It has become a real problem on North Florida farms and in home gardens.
If standing up to TSWV isn't enough, Amelia tomato plants produce an abundance of very large, very attractive and very tasty tomatoes. And that's leaving tomato growers very happy.
No matter what variety of tomato you grow in your garden, you want to get the most you can from each plant. One key to maximizing yield is to properly fertilize your tomatoes. Larry Williams, horticulture extension agent for Okaloosa County, suggests normal fertilization early to produce a strong healthy plant and then cutting back fertilization by about 50 percent once the first flowers open. He suggests reducing fertilizer a little more when the fruit is about two inches in diameter and further cutting back on fertilization – or eliminating it completely – after the first tomato harvest.
The best time to plant tomatoes in North Florida is when temperatures get warm and stay warm, usually early to mid April. They love the heat and need it to grow the way they should. This year choose at least some plants resistant to TSWV and instead of seeing spots, you'll be seeing red (as in lots of tomatoes!).
Click here for more of Larry Williams' keys to successfully growing tomatoes in North Florida.

Quechua speaker in Isla Taquile
But there are other languages spoken in Peru. Most of the people from Cuzco and north Titicaca speak QUECHUA, a language spoken by incas. If you go south of Lake Titicaca they speak AYMARA, and in the jungle the different tribes have different dialects.
We would say "parada"
In Peru they speak mainly spanish, though there are words and expressions we don't use back in Spain. In general you could understand all, is just that some words sound funny or inusual, but you get soon used to them.
Knowing a few words of spanish is so very useful, specially if you have to ask for a street, find where a bus takes you and so on...
Pisaq market
Every ethnic group has its own distinctive hat. When I was in Pisaq Market I counted up to 4 different types of hat, all in women with traditional dressing. In the pic you can see the most colourful one, with "flowers in their hair", like the hippies of the 60s :-))
Market in Pisaq
In Peru women wear traditionally hats, while most men wear just caps or nothing.
The most common hats are a kind of bowler hats, I guess they come from some old caps wore by europeans here in 19th century. These are common in Bolivia too.

This is a very stylish but deeply flawed bondage tape. Each scene is introduced by Rick Masters, costumed as the eponymous Incubus. Unfortunately, Rick's heavily-processed voice is totally indecipherable, leaving the viewer with very little clue as to what's going on. As for the individual segments, they certainly have potential as fantasy fuel, what with all the hot babes suffering their various torments with sweaty angst. Sadly, poor production hobbles what could've been a really great vid.

AbstractMost aerospace aluminum alloys are anodized in order to enhance corrosion resistance. Unfortunately, anodization can reduce fatigue strength by as much as 40%, and also results in a hazardous materials waste-stream. Under this proposed SBIR program, QuesTek Innovations LLC, a leader in the field of computational materials design, will develop a new high-strength anodize-free stainless aluminum alloy with intrinsic corrosion behavior similar to anodized 7xxx alloys and mechanical properties equivalent to non-anodized 7075-T6 alloy. General corrosion is largely driven by differences in electrochemical behavior between the different phases in the system, and QuesTek will utilize a microstructural concept of combining precipitates and constituents with a matrix having similar electrochemical potential, in order to eliminate localized general corrosion. The electrochemical design framework will use QuesTek's state-of-the-art computational design tools for aluminum alloys, including custom thermodynamic and kinetic databases, microstructural evolution models, physics-based strength models, solidification process simulations, and stress-corrosion cracking models. In the program QuesTek will partner with OEMs who will help define the material and process requirement matrix, and ultimately lead the alloy implementation. Concept feasibility will be demonstrated on model alloys fabricated in the Phase I program. Production-scale fabrication of the designed alloy will be demonstrated in Phase II.

The Florida Highwaymen, Jim Crow era painters who captured old Florida
If you lived or traveled through the Fort Pierce region of Florida in the late 1950s and throughout the 60s, you may have had the chance to buy a landscape painting from an African American man, with Upson board as the canvas and crown molding as a frame, and the paint might have still been wet. Unable to get their art into local galleries, this rough collective of 26 self-taught artists peddled their wares to local businesses, through neighborhoods and to tourists. Their style fell out of fashion into the 1980s, but some of the painters persisted. Their style gained new recognition in the 1990s, a handful continue to paint to this day. They are known as The Highwaymen, and their art captures the natural, and somewhat lost Florida of the past. [more inside]

The lasting legacy of the "rocket girls" of JPL
California-based Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) has been central to the US missile and rocket development and operations for decades, and from the beginning that technology's success rested on a corps of expert mathematicians, people known as computers. And from the beginning they were all women, in a time when such opportunities were few and far between. You can find pictures of them, but names have not been well-recorded ... until now. Nathalia Holt found many of those women and wrote about their experiences in her book, Rise of the Rocket Girls: The Women Who Propelled Us, from Missiles to the Moon to Mars. [more inside]
Pierdom, Simon Roberts' photographic survey of England's pleasure piers
The first British pier opened 200 years ago this month in Ryde, on the Isle of Wight. Photographer Simon Roberts spent three years documenting the country's remaining piers. (The Guardian) Roberts describes his collection of photographs, Pierdom, as "a comprehensive survey of Britain's Pleasure Piers," and he captures the current state of powerful reminder of the achievements of Victorian engineers and entrepreneurs. The Telegraph has a bit more on how he set up his process. The Photographers' Gallery has a slideshow of some of Simon's photos, and Lens Scratch has a still series of his photos.
"The Demo" [SLYT] is the original pilot episode of the animated tv show, Bob's Burger's (previously).The theme remains the same, although the art style is a bit rough.

United States v. Health Care Reform
This morning marked day two of marathon proceedings in what's likely the most momentous and politically-charged Supreme Court case since Bush v. Gore: the effort to strike down President Obama's landmark health care reform law. While yesterday was a sleepy affair of obscure technical debate, today's hearings targeted the heart of the law -- the individual mandate that requires most Americans to purchase insurance by 2014. With lower courts delivering a split decision before today, administration lawyers held some hope that at least one conservative justice could be persuaded to uphold the provision, which amortizes the risk that makes universal coverage possible. But after a day of deeply skeptical questioning by swing justice Anthony Kennedy and his fellow conservatives [transcript - audio], the mandate looks to be in grave trouble, with CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin going as far as calling the day "a train wreck" for the administration. But it's far from a done deal, with a third day of hearings tomorrow and a final decision not expected until June.
The Waffle House Terrorists
This past November, news broke of a rather odd domestic terror plot that had been broken up by the FBI. Four senior citizens in northern Georgia who met regularly at a local Waffle House, were allegedly planning to spread ricin and botulinum toxin in Atlanta and Washington, DC, in order to kill millions of people and "save the Constitution." But was there ever really a conspiracy?
What the heck is research anyway?
AT&T MOBILITY LLC, PETITIONER v. VINCENT CONCEPCION ET UX.
Third, class arbitration greatly increases risks to defendants. Informal procedures do of course have a cost: The absence of multilayered review makes it more likely that errors will go uncorrected. Defendants are willing to accept the costs of these errors in arbitration, since their impact is limited to the size of individual disputes, and presumably outweighed by savings from avoiding the courts. But when damages allegedly owed to tens of thousands of potential claimants are aggregated and decided at once, the risk of an error will often become unacceptable. Faced with even a small chance of a devastating loss, defendants will be pressured into settling questionable claims.—Justice Scalia delivers the opinion of the Court, and a knife in the back of class-action suits.

Rosen on Roberts
US Supreme Court Chief Justice told law professor and commentator Jeffrey Rosen, "I think it's bad, long-term, if people identify the rule of law with how individual justices vote." He expressed his intention to help steer the Court away from 5-4 decisions. Now, three years later, Rosen argues that Roberts has been an activist, combative chief justice, willing to risk confrontations with the other branches of government and public opinion.

Charlie Wilson's War
Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip ends tonight, and Aaron Sorkin will be leaving television production for a while. His current project is Charlie Wilson's War, a movie starring Tom Hanks, Julia Roberts and Philip Seymour Hoffman, based on the late George Crile's excellent, funny nonfic book of the same name. The movie will trace "party animal" Congressman Charles "Good Time Charlie" Wilson's (D, TX) rise from a scandal (he was caught in "a hot tub tryst with two cocaine-sniffing showgirls in Las Vegas",) to his role in the 1980's covertly funding Afghanistan guerrillas so they could expand their war with the Soviet Union. Wilson's actions would eventually help collapse the Afghan PDPA government, a power vacuum which would be filled by the Taliban. Who would have thought ending the Cold War would be so easy?
"I think it's bad, long-term, if people identify the rule of law with how individual justices vote."
Chief Justice John Roberts, decrying "the personalization of judicial politics," describes his efforts to increase comity on the Supreme Court and to decide more cases unanimously. In Roberts' first term as chief justice, "while a relatively large number of the Court's decisions" were unanimous, "several important, closely divided cases" were decided by 5-4 votes, with Roberts joining the more conservative justices.

"A Souter in Roberts clothing" was the accusation made by Ann Coulter in one of her recent screeds. Maybe so. In 1995, Supreme Court nominee John G. Roberts Jr. worked behind the scenes for gay rights activists. His legal expertise helped them persuade the Supreme Court to issue a landmark 1996 ruling protecting people from discrimination because of their sexual orientation. A ruling Lamda called the "single most important positive ruling in the history of the gay rights movement." In the blistering dissent, Scalia, joined by Rehnquist and Thomas, said "Coloradans are entitled to be hostile toward homosexual conduct." Thanks to John G. Roberts, the U.S. Supreme court decided that no, Coloradans are not so entitled. The National Legal Foundation (supporting the Biblical foundations of America's Laws) called it "the worst decision in the history of the court." Will Robert's nomination now be opposed by the Christian Right? In any case, watching the GOP cat fight will be fun!

He has the qualities Americans expect in a judge: experience, wisdom, fairness, and civility. He has profound respect for the rule of law and for the liberties guaranteed to every citizen. He will strictly apply the Constitution and laws, not legislate from the bench....He's also a man of character who loves his country and his family."What it meant to conservative fundamentalist Christians (in comments):

Background: As Ann Norton, 57, and friend Diane Roberts picketed an abortion clinic, a passerby who disapproved of Norton's sign tore it from its backing, leading Roberts to telephone police. One officer was dispatched to the clinic to file a report, but several days later, the center said, Norton and Roberts were informed by police they were being charged with a violation of state law for displaying the graphic sign. Michigan statutes prohibit the public display of pictures of murder.

Becoming A USG Organization
Starting a Student Club?
General advice on starting a student club at Buffalo State
The first thing to consider when starting a club on campus is to make sure you're not duplicating a group that is already established and active. Current student organizations are registered with the Student Life Office and many of them have pages on the Bengal Connect website.
If you think you have an idea that fills a need in the student body you next must convince others that it's a good idea. In any case you're going to need a core group of a dozen or so students who want to be part of your club. Then you have to keep them organized and active over an extended time in order to establish your group on campus. Stay active, keep adding members, and sponsor organized public activities that you can keep records of to show people what you have done.
The next essential step is to get an advisor. Find someone on the Buffalo State faculty or staff who shares your interest and will sign on to be your official advisor.
Register your group. There is a form on the bengalconnect.com home page (with links on this USG website and the Student Life Office web page) that you can use to register with the college. You will need three officers and some members (all current students) and an advisor but once registered you will be an official Buffalo State Club an can request use of campus facilities like tables in the Union, meeting rooms, etc.
Finally, plan ahead. The reason most student clubs fail is that the students who start them don't successfully recruit newer students to replace themselves in the future.
Once your group has been active on campus for at least a year you can consider going for USG Recognition using the process outlined below.
Organization Recognition Flow Chart
You should first contact the USG Rules & Regulations Chair with your interest in becoming a USG Recognized Organization and the Chair will advise you and answer any questions. You will then follow this procedure:
- Complete and submit the Application for Recognition Form on the USG web site [see link below] with basic information on your organization including a main contact person, a list of currently registered Buffalo State students who are your organization's officers and members, and the contact information for your faculty or staff advisor.
- The Rules & Regulations Chair will contact the person designated on the application form and request a copy of the organization's current constitution. The Chair may also request more information on the events, activities, and services your group has already sponsored on the Buffalo State campus. The Chair may also contact your advisor to confirm that person's participation in that capacity.
Your application and information will be reviewed by the Rules & Regulations Committee.
If the committee decides that you have met all of the statutory requirements for recognition, your application will be presented to the USG Senate for a vote. The committee can recommend recognition or non-recognition. You will be required to attend the Senate meeting to answer questions from the Senate before the application goes to a vote.
If the Senate vote is positive for recognition, your organization is recognized as of that day and this is in force for three years. If the vote is negative, you can re-apply at any time.
Recognition Application Forms
Use these forms to start the application process for your Buffalo State student group to be come a USG Recognized Organization. Be sure to read the information here on the Recognition Process, and feel free to contact the USG Rules and Regulations Chair or other USG officers for more information on what Recognition can mean for your student organization.
RECOGNITION APPLICATION FORM (an online form that will be submitted directly to USG)
NOTE: If you attempt to use the online form and it fails to submit properly, contact the Rules and Regulations Chair (email@example.com) and then download the application in PDF form, complete it, and submit it in person at the USG Office.

How to Become a Recognized USG Organization
Is USG the right choice for your organization?
First step first!
Your organization must be a group of SUNY Buffalo State students who are dedicated and passionate about not only current activities, but making sure the group develops and stays successful on campus.
Your group should have a good mix of students in all stages of their college careers. Seniors and juniors may be the leaders of today but the freshman and sophomores will be the face of your organization once you are gone.
You will need officers, a written constitution, and a faculty advisor. Exactly what order those things happen in will depend on the group.
Elections should be held to select the proper officers. Typically, this includes a president, vice-president, treasurer, and secretary.
A constitution should be written to state your organization's purpose, and set boundaries and guidelines for activities. Each of the officer positions should be defined in your constitution, along with their duties. The Constitution Template (see the link above) will help you to decide and include all of the relevant elements in your final document
Finding a good faculty or staff advisor is imperative. This advisor must be someone who can dedicate their time to attend meetings and help the group advance on not only on campus, but in the community. The advisor should also be knowledgeable in your organization's internal procedures, such as budget. The earlier in the organizing process you have an advisor the more likely your group is to succeed and thrive.
Next, register your organization with the Student Life Office (Union 400). Why? This means that you will be recognized by the campus, and you will have the ability to sign out meeting rooms and Union lobby tables. Without the registration your group has no official existence on campus. Currently registration is done through an online form; links can be found on this website, Bengal Connect, and the Student Life Office web page.
Finally, you will be eligible to apply for possible recognition with USG. Please note:
- The organization should already be active on campus for at least 1-2 semesters. This is a great time to have a few small events and meetings to prove that your organization is a valid group, and has already started developing.
- Make sure everything is documented. Minutes, activities, sign-in sheets, printed publicity from events as well as pictures of group activities. These are all great tools to see how your group is doing over time. These items all give the Rules and Regulations Committee something to look over and evaluate to see the organization's history on campus.
The Recognition Process
The "Student Organization Recognition Form" can be found at the link above. This form will guide you through the proper materials needed for submission in order to be considered for USG recognition. This will include:
- Name of organization and the general mission of the group
- Contact Person
- Any National/International or any off-campus affiliation
- List of all Elected Officers of the organization
- Name of Faculty/Staff Advisor
- Current Constitution (Please see appendix)
- A list of 10 current activity-fee paying students who are members
- *A list sampling specific activities and services that your organization offers
- *A copy of minutes from a recent organization meeting
The "Student Organization Recognition Form" once submitted online will be sent to the Rules & Regulations Chair e-mail. The additional information (* noted above) should be delivered to the Rules and Regulations Chair via their mailbox, which is located in the USG office in the Student Union Room 402. The Rules and Regulations Committee will review the application and set-up a meeting to further examine your group, as well as make sure everything is turned in and abides by the USG Constitution.
After examining submitted material and meeting with your organization, the Rules and Regulations committee will make a final review of the application, and vote whether or not your organization will be recommended to the USG Senate for recognition. If you are brought to the Senate, representatives from your organization must be present to introduce your organization, as well as answer any questions regarding your organization. If your organization is passed by the Senate, the organization becomes a recognized non-funded USG organization as of that date.
Your organization will then meet with their assigned AVP and Rules Chair for orientation.
So here is the most-asked question…what about funding?
Most organizations want to be a part of USG for not only the promotion, but for the funding. This is where the student activity fee comes into play. This money, collected from our undergraduate student population, is what creates the budget for USG and its organizations.
Because you now have access to the activity fee funds there are several SUNY mandated guidelines you must follow. You cannot charge organizational dues, or hold fundraising events.
According to the USG Constitution, an organization must be recognized for at least two full semesters before applying for a budget. However, this is not the only way to access activity fee money. Organizations that have been recognized by USG but are not yet funded can apply for funds from the Academic Assembly budget. These are funds set aside in the USG budget for recognized-but-unfunded organizations. To apply for funding for a specific event or activity, pick up an Academic Assembly form in the USG business office, room 416 of the Student Union. There are also separate entities from USG that can be a source of funding as well. The Faculty-Student Association and the Grant Allocation Committee, as well as contacting your advisor and the department you are associated with, may also be other options until the organization is give an dedicated budget.
So after all of that…now what?
After your organization has been recognized by the USG Senate, the possibilities are endless. Your organization can now access the "perks" of USG, such as Press Services, as well as Bengal Connect. But keep in mind, your organization must stay in contact with USG throughout the year. This involves attending the mandatory USG Corporate Meeting, as well as the Organization Representative Meetings. The main forms of contact will include your official USG mailbox (located in the Campbell Student Union Room 402) as well as the Bengal Connect web site. Make sure that your Organization Registration is kept up-to-date so that we have the email addresses of your current officers and you can receive correspondence that way. Communication is key; please don't hesitate to ask any of your elected USG officers if you have any questions!

Remote control with a Jabber Bot
To get past a firewall and into a LAN,you need either a secret backdoor or a cooperative agent on the inside. A Jabber client on the LAN contacts a public Jabber server and wait for instructions trickling in as instant messages from its Internet buddies.
Of course, one way to perform tasks on a local network from the Internet is to poke a hole through your firewall and connect to a local web server. Services like dyndns. org allow quasi-static access to the dynamic IP addresses that Internet providers assign. An agent or "bot" (probably short for "Robot") makes life simpler: a messaging client on the inside of the firewall can attach to the public Jabber messaging network and accept commands in the form of text messages. The client I will describe in this article will only accept commands from clients on its buddy list, and it only supports four actions: load checking for the bot computer, querying the public router address (command: ip), and switching the lights on and off at my apartment in San Francisco (lamp on|off).

23,000 Members Strong - The Largest and Oldest Mom Blogger Social Network
Hi! I thought I'd throw a question out there because it's something I'm really struggling with: When do you find time to write? I'm a stay-at-home mom so you'd think I'd be able to find time but it's very difficult. I have tried to write during nap times but that has been harder this summer with everyone home. I've tried at night when the kids are in bed but that's the only time that I get al…

Jury deliberating in Pa. senator's corruption case
PITTSBURGH A jury has begun deliberating in the public corruption trial of Pennsylvania Sen. Jane Orie and her sister Janine.
The jury spent Wednesday listening to closing arguments from defense attorneys, who characterized the case against the sisters as a "smoke screen." Allegheny County Deputy District Attorney Law Claus told jurors that the senator's "legislative staff was literally her campaign staff as well."
The sisters are charged with conspiring to use the senator's staff to work on the 2009 campaign of a third sister, State Supreme Court Justice Joan Orie Melvin. The senator alone is charged with using her staff for campaign work and political fundraisers as far back as 2001.
The jury deliberated for more than two hours before breaking for the day.
Orie represents the 40th District in southwestern Pennsylvania.

Forex — the foreign exchange (currency or FOREX, or FX) market is the biggest and the most liquid financial market in the world. It boasts a daily volume of more than $5.3 trillion (as of April 2013). Trading in this market involves buying and selling world currencies, taking profit from the exchange rates difference. FX trading can yield high profits but is also a very risky endeavor. Everyone can participate in foreign exchange trading via the Forex brokers.
You can also join a friendly community of traders at the Forex forum.

Australian dollar is modifying its trajectory right now, pulling back a little bit after a spike earlier today. Aussie is still mostly higher against its major counterparts, but the gains are a little more subdued.
Tue, 26 Jul 2016 12:23
Japanese yen is gaining ground today, heading higher against most of its major counterparts. The latest expectations for stimulus have changed, and that means that the yen is benefitting from the idea that actual stimulus won't involve as much as originally expected.
Mon, 25 Jul 2016 13:32
Euro is mostly higher today, thanks in large part to the latest German IFO reading. Although nothing to be too excited about, the most recent data offers some hope for the embattled eurozone and shows continued optimism for what's next — even with all of the downside risks emerging for the 19-nation currency region.

The market has been dominated by a wild ride for the Japanese yen over stimulus rumors and finally a confirmation. Attention now turns to the FOMC release from the Fed due later today from the US.

The USD/JPY pair rose sharply, fell and then rose again during the Asian...

In this video, the Trader Guy looks at the currency pairs USD/JPY and AUD/USD for the July 27th session. USD/JPY — We initially fell during the day, but the 105.00 level is being broken down. It is a pretty significant barrier and we bounced a bit towards the end of the day to show some signs of bullish pressure. With this, the market should continue to grind higher. I believe that the Bank of Japan will...

In this video, the Trader Guy looks at the currency pairs EUR/USD and GBP/USD for the July 27th session. EUR/USD — We did in fact, find quite a bit of pressure above the 1.10 level. So, having said that, we did form a shooting star, and that to me is a sign that we are going to continue going lower. There is a lot of trouble in the EU. So, it...

OK, I'll admit that this question has very little to do with XBMC, but I feel that this forum is the most appropriate place to ask it--this forum contains the most people who know about backing up music to the xbox. Mods, please don't smack down this post for being out of place because this question doesn't really have a home.
On to the good stuff:
I have three questions that are related to each other. As I'm trying to backup my music collection onto my xbox, I have found that the xbox doesn't like certain file names. Take for example, it seems as if any file with a comma "," in it won't transfer onto the box. Are there any other characters that I have to avoid for file names?Furthermore, since I use iTunes to keep my music files tidy, is there any way to instruct iTunes to not name files with these bad characters? (like a macro or plugin or something) And finally, iTunes places two files with every album (thumbs.db and desktop.something) and occasionally has album cover files in there. I don't really want those to be on my xbox hogging up room. Does anyone know how to get rid of them easily?
