sapphirebulletsofpurelove commented on the blog post Congrats America! One Out of Five of Your Kids Needs Food Stamps
That over 1 in 10 kids in households with two parents need food assistance in the world's one indispensable nation is all good with you? Or if the reason most of the kids in this country who go without food do so is that they aren't being raised by two parents nullifies the problematism of those kids' hunger and maybe it's ok to cut aid to them? Because really what we need is to push more cultural conservatism down their mothers' throats? That's how you come across.
Yeah, feel free to ignore the fact that a couple generations ago a single income was enough to raise a family of multiple children.

What's the point of vetoing the bill and not finally saying no to Keystone XL?
To fool rubes in the 99% into thinking he shares their interests when in fact, he doesn't.

Thanks for covering this, Kevin. I'm glad to hear he has no interest in a settlement. Name names and drag this out. Also glad to hear he'll go with a jury trial. Americans aren't so hoodwinked about spurious claims of anti-Semitism being used to shut down discourse anymore.

sapphirebulletsofpurelove commented on the blog post Head of New York City Police Union Notoriously Hostile to Reform
Unfortunately, I find that you're right. The NYC I moved to in 2003 and still live in is not the place I thought it was. People here are in many ways, and definitely in the area of unquestioning deference to authority, more conservative than those in suburban St. Louis where I grew up.
I blame it on the whole bullshit late 90s bubble economy and the accompanying propaganda that made people giddy about their economic prospects beyond any reasonable expectations. Since most started seeing themselves as potential billionaires, most started worshipping and aping them.
sapphirebulletsofpurelove commented on the blog post Head of New York City Police Union Notoriously Hostile to Reform
Amazes me that some still can't see that DeBlasio is a fake or a failure as a "progressive". These brown shirts serve at his discretion as the elected executive representing the people of the city. They should have been told to shut up or face consequences for their insubordination in no uncertain terms. But what can you expect from the guy who hires Bill "Broken Windows" Bratten after riding in as NYC's "progressive" savior?
sapphirebulletsofpurelove commented on the blog post Why Some People May Be Deciding Not to Marry – And It's Not Internet Porn
Now see, there you go. I've watched people of less means than myself act on this feeling and spend far more than was spent on my wedding. Those are decisions. There is structure that suggest people make poor decisions, financially and otherwise. But the decisions still belong to individuals. Fascinating that in this context-I don't at all mean just here in this forum-I've heard this cited. So people can resist centuries of custom telling them to get married but they can't resist the very recent phenomenon in which working or middle class people have weddings in which they appear to be aristocrats? Huh?
sapphirebulletsofpurelove commented on the blog post Why Some People May Be Deciding Not to Marry – And It's Not Internet Porn
Tough situation.
Ever watch your sister implode trying to raise a couple kids after the father disappeared? Not that he ran off, he just moved in with his parents and did his drinking in their basement. Not saying he deserved to be thrown in prison but some consequences other than, you know, nothing may be in order.
Anyone who expects to spend decades with somebody and never have a conflict or realize you don't like something about them has unrealistic expectations.
sapphirebulletsofpurelove commented on the blog post Why Some People May Be Deciding Not to Marry – And It's Not Internet Porn
That article is a sad indictment of the lack of emotional and social engagement between spouses of a certain generation.
Young people don't get married now because, like always, they're terrified of commitment and wary of their inability to adhere to it. Which is fine, as the only thing in the past that was different was a culture that ignored these factors and demanded people get married anyway.
A couple of thoughts however: there is certainly an element of cowardice, narcissism and self-absorption to declining popularity of marriage. And marriage doesn't cause divorce-divorcees bad decisions do. Obviously. So again, good idea to take one's time with that decision.

sapphirebulletsofpurelove commented on the blog post Some Perspective as Officials Exploit Execution of NYPD Officers to Discredit Movement for Police Reform
Yes, the kill the cops part. The other parts are incidental and certainly nothing compared to the eggs the alphabets have been willing to break in the past to make their toxic omelets. ECAHN made it clear that this would be a matter of manipulating a mentally ill man.
I know, I know-in your world, most people who express disgust over police killing unarmed men and facing no consequences are would-be members of mobs baying for the blood of cops whereas it's impossible that the police state that we know tortures people and spies on everyone would use a mentally-ill man to carry out a false flag attack that would further justify their spying & torturing and the budgets needed to do that…
The PTB don't give a shit about cops per se, only insofar as they can be useful. Just like all the other people about whom they pretend to give a shit. Ever notice how the establishment talks up how much they support soldiers but never misses a chance to throw their lives down the toilet for nothing?
Someone let me know when it's time to go to the barricades.
sapphirebulletsofpurelove commented on the blog post Some Perspective as Officials Exploit Execution of NYPD Officers to Discredit Movement for Police Reform
Leaving aside the crass, disgusting ridiculousness of amoral, opportunist rhetoricians like Lynch I do wonder about this singular focus on race. I really do. It feels like at least something of a distraction as it allows easily for the appearance of acting on a problem that is causing major problems for most of this country while actually doing nothing about it. Again, I wonder about those young people at that meeting with the president. I wonder who they imagine relates more to their plight-multimillionaire Obama, product of privilege and exclusively private schools but black or people like me-children of the proletariat who actually grew up in a working class community just minutes from where Michael Brown was murdered?
sapphirebulletsofpurelove commented on the blog post I'm not sure we really know the meaning of that word…
Seeing Obama comment on this-ridiculous. This has to do with national security? Wow, they've really jumped the shark. I won't be holding my breath waiting for multinational corporations to take up the cause of the people of this country and their problems-that only flows the other way.

sapphirebulletsofpurelove commented on the blog post Making All the People Unhappy All the Time
Yeah, Schama's a real disappointment isn't he? I was reading his book on Dutch national culture when I was first exposed to his Zionist bile and couldn't finish it. Too bad, because it was an interesting book. I'd say, however, that that's the sort of grinding-axe that will affect one's scholarship. Very hard to take him seriously about the formation of states given his position on Palestine.
I'd recommend DMG Southerland's France 1789-1815: Revolution and Counterrevolution. Yes, it's dry and yes it's dense but it's painstakingly documented, wonderfully analytical and neither shies away from significant minutiae nor ever sinks to the personality-driven pop lit on the period. If one needs something light, you can get through Jeremy Popkin's A Short History of the French Revolution in a weekend. At least in the edition I own, it had excellent visual aids for such a small book.
sapphirebulletsofpurelove commented on the blog post Making All the People Unhappy All the Time
Hear, hear. Being completely honest-they're all from the upper class. Direct democracy may be impractical for a system with 50 confederated states with a population of 300M+ (but it's not impossible). Given that, the temptation to favor a republic is tempting. But also given the reality of capitalism, i.e. inequality (because that's all it is, the predictable result of capitalism) and that commerce is very lightly regulated in the west today it's impossible to have a truly representative republic unless we bring back democratic practices like filling offices by lot. (And why not?) If a job is too difficult to understand or be handled by anyone in the nation either our civic education is deficient (it is) or the job is too complex (they are, as what we have become is an oligarchy with hints of technocracy for the military/finance/intelligence sectors).
Really though, I'm an economic determinist. I'm not sure that governmental system as an abstraction rises very high in anyone's priorities in terms of things to think about or do something about until many other needs are met. Those being the essentials of life, which is understandable. If you care more about whether we have a democracy, oligarchy, republic, etc. more than if you can feed yourself and your kids you're either suffering from false consciousness, a damn fool or clinically obsessed. What I see is that most Americans rightly don't (can't) give a lot of thought to how much they want democracy or how good or bad it is compared to the alternatives when they're using all their time and energy to feed and clothe and house themselves, with ever diminishing returns. Remember-in places like Egypt a dictatorship is tolerated for decades but as soon as there's no longer a chicken in every pot, out come the long knives.

sapphirebulletsofpurelove commented on the blog post Why the U.S. Plan for Iraq is Doomed to Fail
Basically, you can't chalk up wins against your own farm team. Obviously. By that logic, the Romans were like 536-4 over a few centuries. In reality, any really capable opponent like Mithridates or the Arsacids in Parthian scared the bejeezus out of them and were only subdued over a very long time and largely by bribing people and throwing good troops after bad.
Sound familiar?

Background Note | HBS Case Collection | June 2014 (Revised December 2015) Affordable Housing and Low Income Housing Tax Credits Arthur I Segel and Nicolas P. Retsinas This background note explores the basic themes surrounding the government's approach to providing housing: namely its shift from a supplier and builder of affordable housing to an approach that focuses on demand-side solutions and indirect subsidies to private developers. In addition to a shift from supply-based to demand-based solutions, there is an on-going debate about whether to provide people-based or place-based solutions. The above shift and debate reflects the troubles encountered in the original urban renewal efforts, and the desire today to provide affordable housing that is close to jobs and transportation, that is mixed-income, and contextual to its surrounding development.

Article | Journal of Financial Economics | January 2015 X-CAPM: An Extrapolative Capital Asset Pricing Model Nicholas Barberis, Robin Greenwood, Lawrence Jin and Andrei Shleifer Survey evidence suggests that many investors form beliefs about future stock market returns by extrapolating past returns. Such beliefs are hard to reconcile with existing models of the aggregate stock market. We study a consumption-based asset pricing model in which some investors form beliefs about future price changes in the stock market by extrapolating past price changes, while other investors hold fully rational beliefs. We find that the model captures many features of actual prices and returns; importantly, however, it is also consistent with the survey evidence on investor expectations.

Remember the outrage over Gas Prices a few years ago (Under Chimp Bush) have any of you liberals noticed the price of gas today (Under Barry Jug Ears) Where's the outrage? Also The little creep that runs Iran says he will bomb America if we mess with him, I hope he hits Columbia Univ those Left Wing Freaks gave him a standing ovation while he spewed his sh!t. http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE6371EY20100408 :rofl:
I've noticed the price of Gas creeping up, it always does at the start of Summer, under Bush I remember it being at 4.00/gallon, not 3 where it is now here in Jacksonville.
I think you get Harry's point, though, don't you? There was so much outrage by the left for a lot of the very same things that are still going on today. Yet these people have become silent for some unknown reason. Can you or anyone here explain why that would be.
I don't think the rise in price over gas during Obama's tenure is anything out of the normal... whereas during bush there was an explosive rise in price.
They ignore it now, their Poster Boy Prince Charming With The Beautiful Smile is running the show. The wars and Gitmo are the big ones though the day Jug Ears was Coronated the Phony Anti War People all put their toy drums down and then VANISHED, the Wars still go on troops still die, phony bull**** rat bastards, where the hell did George Clooney go????????? Remember "Dafur"-----------:singing:
Are you replying to me or somene else because you aren't addressing my point at all. I'm not referring to the rise in gasoline prices at all.
They do everything in their power to ignore the fact that NOTHING HAS CHANGED EVERYTHING IS JUST AS IT WAS UNDER BUSH AND GETTING WORSE BY THE DAY.
Everytime I see these threads I go back to the gas lines and Jimmy Carter. We have done so little since then to ease our reliance on imported oil ... it's a disgrace. I like what Obama said the other weel about offshore and nuclear ... but talk is cheap ... Congress needs to get busy in that area.
Absolutely but the latest excuse for rising prices is because the economy might be getting better isn't it? Anyway, the new solution that's kinda cool now is off shore drilling. It's suddenly a good idea. Back in the 08 McCain campaign days many here were making fun of him for his backing it.
I am commenting on the point of tis thread, not extrapolating anything else but saying the original posters point that the rise in gas price should have everyone going nuts, when in fact, the rise in gas is nothing out of the ordinary rise in the pre summer months that EVERY president goes through. The rise in price during Bush was extravagant, and must more noticeable, rendering this entire thread pretty worthless.
I liked what Obama said also and I jokingly praised him for it but I think now most people know Obama is full of sh!t.
Be patient, the gas price will go right back to where "Bush Had It" everything else is as "Bush Had It" the Change We Can Believe In Never Came.
Why not? Aren't we supposed to stick to the topic at hand? I swear, every time I learn the rules, someone changes them.
Well, you didn't quote anyone and your comment followed mine. but I guess you have nothing to say about the general point that the left is now very quiet about the very same things they attacked Bush over outside the price of gasoline. You have nothing to say on that point?
You're just doing the independent in sheep's clothing circle dance. Harry has posted numerous threads on "where is the outrage on the left regarding the war in Afghanistan?" and no one has anything to say. Why? Because NO ONE can explain it...including YOU.
Not really... Have you followed politics lately? This isn't a new development, every 4 years, sometimes 8, the other side stops complinaing becuase they are finally in power, and the other side complains, and then they switch, etc... We could say... Wow all those things the Right complained about with Clinton and they did the same stuff under bush... I honestly don't care about right v left. I am howver tired of continual drummed up attacks on Obama just for the sake of attacking him. So Obama didn't revolutionize politics, did anyone really think he would... Hes a politician for christ sake... did you actually think he was going to make good on everything he said on the campaign trail? Bush campaigned on ending the Department of Education... how did he do on that? Bush ran on a platform of not being nation builders... hmmm...
Now we're talkn' mcgraw! I'm not an Obama basher and like you (if you've read my posts), I don't care about R v L either. .At least on a political level. However, it does bother me deeply on a social level that people are ignorant enough to actually "rah-rah" one side or the other as if that's what it's all about...because nothing is about R v L...NOTHING. Note: I voted for Obama Issues are the only challenges we face. So, in general, we agree strongly. So why didn't you just say this in the first place?
They are silent now because it wasn't the war, it was The Man, they despised Bush and the war their big "attack point" but I guess I am somewhat guilty of the same behavior, I can't stand Obama, I believe he is a great danger to our country's safety and to our economy. I do not believe Obama is the man he says he is.
Because the topic was about the failure of the president based on gas prices which, based on recent history, is the typical rise in prices, and not comparable to a the rise during the Bush term.

How do I resist my pregnancy craving for beer?
I'm my last trimester and I have a huge hankering for a beer every now and then. When I go out to eat, everyone looks at me funny if I order one -- even if I only have a few sips. Does anyone else share this craving? What can I do to deter dirty looks?

try the non-alcoholic kinds of beer - might help the craving without the guilt.posted 05/21/2007 by a BabyCenter Member
I have a craving for beer but real beer tastes weird to me. I actually prefer the taste of non-alcoholic beer (weird to my husband and friends!) I think that you should make your own decisions and ignore everyone else. But that's easier said than done! If it bugs you, you could ask the server to pour it into another container for you. A funny story about that-- in my first pregnancy I went to a bar that had a patio with some friends who were in from out of town. I was drinking a Sharp's but I had poured it into a glass. A complete stranger yelled "Awesome! Drinking for two!" So I turned to my husband and said (in a ridiculously dramatic fashion) "Oh, Babe! If only they made non-alcoholic beer! Whatever shall I do!" We all laughed about it and then one of my friends brought me a "shot" of Sprite. The guy- who was apparently a member of the pregnancy police (lol)-looked extremely sheepish and a couple of the girls he was with were punching him on the arm and looking disgruntled. It was fabulous.posted 05/21/2007 by 2Buckeye_boys
I love beer with tomato juice, and love it even more when Im pregnant. I just switch to non alcoholic and cant even taste the difference. No one knows how much is too much, so why chance it?posted 05/21/2007 by a BabyCenter Member
Valerie - I am beer drinker myself and I miss it but I bought the O'Douls Amber that was recommended in the BabyCenter Magazine and I really enjoyed it. I still got the taste of a beer but without the alcohol.posted 05/21/2007 by LSaff34
I too get cravings for beer, which is unusual since I didn't really drink it before I got pregnant. What I do is ocassionally sip off of my husbands, or buy the non alcoholic stuff, I don't think its the alcohol I crave (since afew sips and I'm done)perhaps the yeast or hops. I bought Buckler non alcoholic beer recently, it was pretty tasty!posted 05/21/2007 by Lasirena76
I have a craving for wine. I don't think or believe it's going to hurt you at all unless you get drunk or over do it. It's ok to have a beer or two every now and then. If people stick their nose up to you or give you a weird, mean look, just ignore them. Don't worry about what other people think. No ones perfect.posted 05/21/2007 by daughtermakayla
I actually have been craving beer too! I was never a heavy drinker to begin with, but that is one craving I've had that's been bad. I keep strong and don't drink!! I think I'm just too scared to!posted 05/21/2007 by ahmiba1
I have had beer cravings too! I have had a few sips of beer through out my preg. don't worry about people looking at you when you have a beer, it's your baby and your body not theirs.posted 05/21/2007 by a BabyCenter Member
I am in my last trimester and I crave beer all the time. When my husband is drinking I go ahead and have a sip or two. Who cares how people look at you. They have no right anyways... If it were me I would look at them back the exact same way. If they have a problem with it then they shouldnt look. I think its better two have a couple sips and satisfy yourself, then to be craving it. Its not going to harm the baby unless if you overdo it.posted 05/21/2007 by mirandac805

Senator Sanders: "Ben Bernanke Is Part Of The Problem"
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 11/29/2009 22:38 -0500On December 3rd, senators will have to decide: will they vote with their conscience, or with Wall Street's checkbook. Bernie Sanders has made his choice: "No, I absolutely will not vote for Mr. Bernanke. He is part of the problem. He's the smartest guy in the world, why didn't he do anything to prevent us from sinking into this disaster that Wall Street caused and which he was a part of? No, I will not vote for Bernanke to stay on as chairman."

Full Ben Bernanke Speech Before Economic Club of New York
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 11/16/2009 12:17 -0500The foreign exchange value of the dollar has moved over a wide range during the past year or so. When financial stresses were most pronounced, a flight to the deepest and most liquid capital markets resulted in a marked increase in the dollar. More recently, as financial market functioning has improved and global economic activity has stabilized, these safe haven flows have abated, and the dollar has accordingly retraced its gains. The Federal Reserve will continue to monitor these developments closely. We are attentive to the implications of changes in the value of the dollar and will continue to formulate policy to guard against risks to our dual mandate to foster both maximum employment and price stability. Our commitment to our dual objectives, together with the underlying strengths of the U.S. economy, will help ensure that the dollar is strong and a source of global financial stability.

A Zero Hedge Petition: Break Debt Habit, Freeze The Debt Ceiling

Is Ben Bernanke The "Machiavelian Monster" Equivalent Of Nicholas Biddle?
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 09/01/2009 09:45 -0500"When you hear about the Federal Reserve Transparency Act getting stalled in committee, think of Daniel Webster, bought and paid for with central bank money. When you read Fed apologia in the New York Times, The Economist, and the Wall Street Journal denouncing the "reckless populism" of the Act, think of the newspaper editors in Biddle's pocket."

Federal Reserve Capital LLC; Ben Bernanke Earning Your 2 and 20 With Daily Short Covering Diligence
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 08/11/2009 09:42 -0500"When people kid around that the Fed has become another hedge fund now that it is the lender of first, second and last resort — to mention the market-maker for everyone including RVs and mobile homes — it really is no joke at all. See NY Fed in Hiring Spree as Assets Soar. The New York Fed is seeking to bolster its staffing of traders — not research staff, but traders — by nearly 70%!!

Ben Bernanke Back Into The Populist Spotlight
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 07/10/2009 14:41 -0500It seems just yesterday that Ben Bernanke was rehearsing for the role of the Alzheimer's patient antagonist in Joel Schumacher's latest mad scientist-becomes-insane global dictator B-grade movie, before the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, after firing back with a catatonic "I don't recall" after catatonic "I don't recall" when asked to remember even one of the events in what historians will likely one day consider among the most critical 24 hours for modern capitalism. Many thought that this spectacle was merely a way for politicians to score populist points in a McCarthesque witch hunt sequel of the villain de jour play. It seems they were wrong.

Hep C Jan 2, 2006 I heard recently that a person that has been infected with the Hepatitus C virus can sometimes 'convert' to not being infected anymore. I know that sometimes babies born with HIV can convert to negative, but I've never heard of it happening in adults or babies with Hep. Thanks, Janet |
Response from Dr. Holodniy
There are a small percentage (10-15%) of people who have been exposed to HCV, infected, and who developed antibodies (so that their HCV antibody test is positive), and appear to have cleared the infection because they do not have evidence of chronic infection as their HCV viral load tests are negative. | ||||||||||

Alum is a class of chemical compounds containing sulphuric acid or selenate alumina, an alkali and water. They are used industrially as dying agents, as well as food preservatives and flame retardants, and to purify water, staunch bleeding and enhance immune response in some vaccines. They are also used as an ingredient in toothpaste and in artist's clays as a firming agent.
The main kinds of alum are potassium (or potash) alum, soda alum, ammonia alum and chrome alum, all of which contain sulphur, and the selenate alums, which contain selenium instead of sulphur. The selenate alums are used as antiseptics because they are strong oxidizing agents.
The sulphur-based alums are the most widely used, especially potassium alum. Potassium alum is used throughout the food industry in baking powder and as a preservative, especially in pickle brine. It is also used in the textile and leather industry for tanning and dying fabric.
Soda alum is also used in the food industry as a constituent of baking powder and as an acidulent.
Ammonia alum is used in the food industry for many of the same purposes as the two above, as well as being used as a flame retardant and in the manufacture of glue. Ammonia and potash alum are both used to filter water. They are also both used as deodorant crystals.
Chrome alum is not as common as the three other sulphur-based alums, but it is used in the leather industry for tanning skins.
Learn MoreAlum is used in food preparation to maintain the firmness of pickles, raise the acidic level of some baking sodas and as a crispness preservative in some pickled vegetable and fruit recipes. It is also used to remove snail slime before cooking in Nigeria. During the 1800s, alum was used in England as a bread whitener until it was prohibited by the 1875 Sale of Food and Drugs Act.

RAF fighter plane found in Sahara
A Second World War aeroplane that crash landed in the Sahara Desert before the British pilot walked to his death has been found almost perfectly preserved 70 years later.
The Kittyhawk P-40 has remained unseen and untouched since it came down on the sand in June 1942 and has been hailed the "aviation equivalent of Tutankhamun's Tomb".
It is thought the pilot survived the crash and initially used his parachute for shelter before making a desperate and futile attempt to reach civilisation by walking out of the desert.
The RAF airman, believed to have been Flight Sergeant Dennis Copping, 24, was never seen again....

"Good Listen"
Overall this was a very good audiobook. The sound quality is very good. The narrator is very good. However the character actors were intermittent. Sometimes the narrator would do the voices, sometimes the actors would. It would even shift within paragraphs. The actors were very good, it just would have been nice if it was either all actors or all narrator.

Long-serving court bailiff Grahame Cox has suffered a huge fall from grace after he was caught growing cannabis, the New Plymouth District Court heard yesterday.
Cox, 72, who is believed to have been suspended since his arrest, is now unlikely to continue in his job of 30-plus years.
Cox was yesterday convicted and fined a total of $1100 plus court costs after he admitted cultivating and possessing cannabis, and unlawfully possessing a .22 semi-automatic rifle.
The police conservatively estimated that the cannabis, if sold on the street, would have been worth $16,000.
He had no firearms licence for the the rifle, which was hidden but not secured in the living area.
Cox was arrested on April 14, along with Gary Ian Clynton Harker, 63, after police executed search warrants at their respective properties.
Cox initially told police who searched his remote bushclad property in Waitaanga Rd in the Ruapehu district, that someone else must have planted the small groups of plants they found dotted through the bush; and someone else must have broken in while he was away and left the newly harvested cannabis in the group of caravans he lived in during weekends.
During sentencing yesterday, Cox's lawyer, Turitea Bolstad, said the implications of the convictions for her client were "absolutely huge". Cox had a blemish-free record before his arrest.
At the age of 72 he had built a reputation for himself and the conviction was something he would have to deal and live with, Bolstad said.
He had no excuse except to say that the cannabis was for his personal use. He used it for ailments that included a back injury and arthritis, she said. "At 72 he has made the unwise decision to use it to help alleviate that pain."
The rifle was a "huge, huge oversight" when he took it to his property.
Judge Allan Roberts said he saw "no nefarious connection with the firearm". It was common to have firearms to kill pests in rural areas.
The judge noted that Cox had more plants than Harker but Cox had more dried material.
The judge took into account the guilty plea "and the toll the exercise has already taken on you".
He ordered the firearm and drug-related gear be destroyed.
Harker had already been convicted and fined $350 plus court costs at an earlier court appearance.
The Ministry of Justice said yesterday the employment process for Cox was continuing but declined to comment further.
"However, the ministry expects high standards of integrity from its staff, and holds staff to account," collections unit general manager Bryre Patchell said.
"As a good employer, the Ministry of Justice must consider each case on its merits. However, all breaches and alleged breaches of the law by employees are of concern to the ministry. This is particularly so in the case of serious crimes," Patchell said.

Once I was going to meet up with my BFF at the mall. We were meeting at a store and I got there early. I was looking at a pair of pants when I saw her walk by. I tried to yell but she didn't hear me, so I ran out of the store after her, still holding the pants. The alarm sounded and all of the employees in the store started running after me, because it looked like I was trying to steal the pants. Everyone in the whole mall stared at me and the cops even came. It was the most embarrassing moment of my life.

DEFINITION of 'International Bank Account Number - IBAN'
A standard numbering system developed to identify bank accounts from around the world. It was originally developed by banks in Europe to simplify transactions involving bank accounts from other countries.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'International Bank Account Number - IBAN'
The IBAN number consists of a two-letter country code followed by two check digits and up to thirty alphanumeric characters known as the basic bank account number (BBAN). It is up to the banking association of each country to determine what BBAN will be set as the standard for that country's bank accounts. Currently, the IBAN is primarily used only by banks in Europe, but the practice is becoming popular in other countries.

DEFINITION of 'Full-Cost Method'
An accounting system used by companies that incur exploration costs for oil and natural gas that does not differentiate between operating expenses associated with successful and unsuccessful exploration projects. Regardless of the outcome, successful and unsuccessful operation expenses are capitalized. By contrast, the successful efforts accounting method only capitalizes expenses related to successful ventures.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Full-Cost Method'
The two methods represent conflicting views in the industry about how oil and natural gas companies can most transparently report their earnings, and the two organizations that regulate accounting and financial reporting, the Financial Accounting Standards Board and the Securities and Exchange Commission, cannot always agree on which method is most appropriate.
The choice between these two accounting methods affects the company's reported net income and cash flows, so investors in such companies should be aware of the method used and the differences between the two.

The Window Cleaner
A short muisc video based on the classic song "The Window Cleaner" sung by George Formby
4.39 / 5.00 6,411 ViewsUpdate: Feb 2007.
This movie is the basis for the new Brackenwood game called "BrackenSack". Check it out at my site.
--- --- ---
For me, Flash online is the perfect medium for any storyteller to reach a global audience... even if I do eventually become a live-action film director (one of my ambitions) I will probably continue to use Flash in some capacity. I love it like a brother :)
basiclly what that dude said cept id like to add hahahahaha funny..........bitey's a wee bit mean but he's still funni
One of the best animations I've seen.
As anybody can see from watching this movie there has been a lot of work been put into this work of art. Even from the very first scenes, the look of the forest I can tell (as anybody can) you are an amazing artist. Not only were your graphics great but the smoothness and detail of your animation was flawless. It was perfect. Action-packed and brilliant. You music also fits in very well with the story and your animation. Adam, you have done something truly remarkable here and you must make more to either this to make a series or make up some great new stories and animations because I can't wait to see what you in store for newgrounds next. Keep up the excellent work mate.
That poor little squishy thing.
my friend i commend you on your vast talent. i am very impressed. it was'nt very long but it got a point across like the last guy siad it did'nt have violence or sexual content to use as a krutch but the animation alone held it up! it was so fluid and very realistic i am absolutely impressed as should anyone who watches this ought to be. the story has a moral but it maybe diffrent for every viewer. keep up the good work and i hope you achive your dreams of being a a live-action director. i'll be proud to say to my children "i wrote a review for an animation of his before he made it big, i hope it helped him out alittle."
This is one of those rare flash works that is able to capture the viewer on style and animation alone. It does not rely on violence, nudity, or even diologue, let alone swearing, to capture the watcher's attention. (although there's nothing wrong blood, swearing, or titties as far as I'm concerned. Its just nice to have a change every once and a while.) The drawing and animation is simply beautiful. The lighting effects are amazing. This work is a prime example of flash MX being used to its full potentiol. The fluid quality to the animation itself adds much to the work, especially in the cases of the yellow blob thingy and the water that carries Bitey off. (Assuming thats his name.) Use of a multitude of layaring effects also adds depth and richness to the overall visual appeal. The characters are well drawn and origional, as goes for the assorted backdrops. The sound, though slightly minimalistic, works quite well in this particular situation. Its truly a tragedy that flash movies of such depth and quality are few and far between. Perhaps this work will motivate fledgling flash artists to hane their skills and create something that can be called truly great. I thank you Adam Phillips for your incredible flash work and hope that your future works may also grace newground's front page.
Best of wishes,
The Drunken Messiah
Nice one
Wow, that was really cool. The greaphics are very nice. Good job.

'This isn't some damn game': Tempers fray in US enters fifth day of government shutdown
Republicans and Democrats continue to blame each other as shutdown crisis worsens
The shutdown of the American government began to have global implications today as President Barack Obama cancelled plans to attend economic summit meetings in Asia so that he could focus on trying to end the increasingly fractious budget stand-off at home.
With most federal agencies emptied of employees for a fourth day, there was meanwhile scant sign of progress. Republican House Speaker John Boehner erupted at a news conference at what he perceived as political arrogance on the part of the White House as the crisis deepens. "This isn't some damn game," he said.
While Mr Obama had little choice but to pull out of both the Asia-Pacific Economic Co-operation (Apec) summit in Bali on Monday and the subsequent East Asia summit in Brunei, the cost to the US could be high both in terms of economic outreach to the region and in terms of urgent diplomacy. Among those he had been expected to meet was President Vladimir Putin of Russia to take stock of progress on Syria.
"We are disappointed that there will be no meeting," Mr Putin's spokesman, Dmitry Peskov, told a Russian news agency last night. "There is a great need in our bilateral relations for a dialogue at the highest level." John Kerry, the Secretary of State, will stand in for Mr Obama at the two meetings.
The White House swiftly blamed the Republicans for the pullout by the President, who had originally been set to visit the Philippines and Indonesia on the same trip. "This completely avoidable shutdown is setting back our ability to create jobs through promotion of US exports and advance US leadership and interests in the largest emerging region in the world," said the White House spokesman, Jay Carney.
US officials have also withdrawn from free trade deal talks with the EU due to take place in Belgium next week.
Mr Boehner took public umbrage at a comment attributed in the Wall Street Journal to a senior administration official apparently saying "it doesn't matter how long" the shutdown goes on, because "we're winning". In tones of high indignation, the Speaker responded: "This isn't some damn game. The American people don't want their government shut down, and neither do I."
Democrats make no secret of their belief that most of the blame for the shutdown is being placed on the Republican leadership, which has, to a large part, been pushed into attaching conditions on a deal to both ending the shutdown and accepting an increase in the amount of money the government can borrow to pay its bills, known as the debt ceiling.
The Treasury says it will run out of money by 17 October. In particular, the Tea Party wing of the Republicans has been determined to delay or at least partially de-fund the healthcare reform programme known as Obamacare which has actually come into being for most Americans this month.
"It's very hard to negotiate with the Republicans when they can't negotiate with themselves," Nancy Pelosi, the Democrat Minority Leader in the House, quipped last night.
While he continues to take a hard line in public, Mr Boehner has indicated to Republican colleagues privately that he will seek a deal at least on the debt ceiling, without which the US could find itself defaulting on its debt. With the issues of the budget and debt ceiling increasingly becoming conflated in Washington, that would indicate that no deal on either issue is likely to come before the middle of the month.

Case | HBS Case Collection | June 2013 (Revised September 2014) Buffett's Bid for Media General's Newspapers Benjamin C. Esty and Aldo Sesia On May 12, 2012, BH Media Group, a subsidiary of Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway, announced an offer to buy Media General's (MEG) newspaper division for $142 million in cash and provide debt financing to the struggling firm. Reactions from investors and industry analysts varied greatly: one called it a "great surprise", another wondered if Buffett was investing with his heart rather than his head (he was a paperboy as a child), and a third said it was a "feat of financial engineering." Virtually all of them wondered what the "Oracle of Omaha" saw in the declining U.S. newspaper industry that others did not. The question facing Media General's CEO Marshall Morton was whether to accept the offer or not. As the head of a highly leveraged company whose revenues had fallen 31% in the past four years, whose stock price was down more than 90% off its high, and whose falling profitability left it perilously close to violating key debt covenants, he had to move quickly.

Background Note | HBS Case Collection | January 2015 Note on Economic Inequality (2015) Clayton S. Rose and Aldo Sesia For over half a century, most of the world's economies have enjoyed steady growth and prosperity. However, beginning in the 1980s, and continuing essentially unabated to the present, the gap between the "haves" and the "have-nots" in developed countries has widened, with a small proportion of the population reaping an increasingly larger share of a country's economic rewards. This growing economic inequality has been particularly pronounced in the United States, but the phenomenon has also occurred in many nations, among them Germany, Japan and Sweden. This note provides background on aspects of economic inequality. It begins by describing both income inequality and wealth inequality, providing an explanation of two widely used metrics and data that show increasing inequalities over time. It then moves to the factors that might contribute to this inequality, as well as to propositions of economic and social consequences that might result from the widening gap. Finally, it addresses the issue of "equality of opportunity" or social mobility.

Case | HBS Case Collection | April 2009 (Revised January 2015) Dr. Benjamin Hooks and Children's Health Forum Rosabeth Moss Kanter, Charles J. Ogletree Jr, Howard Koh, Abbye Atkinson, Carmel Salhi and Aldo Sesia "Dr. Benjamin Hooks and Children's Health Forum" charts the many different career paths of Hooks, a civil rights activist and pioneer. Hooks' positions ranged from lawyer, judge, preacher, entrepreneur to the first African American commissioner of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and to the head of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) to the co-founder of the non-profit Children's Health Forum (CHF). CHF's mission was to eradicate lead poisoning in children in the United States. The case provides an overview of lead poisoning in the U.S., including how it is measured, its causes, and legislation enacted to prevent it. The case asks students to reflect on Hooks' leadership choices and his decision to launch CHF. How would they assess Hooks as a leader? What made him a strong leader? Given Hooks' past experiences, do they think that Hooks made the right decision to focus on lead poisoning after leaving the NAACP? Is this an area where he could have the most impact?
