text: The Return of the Legion, Part 4: Invasive Surgery wiki last edited by Haunt on 01/11/15 10:36AM View full history The pulse-pounding first story-arc comes to a climactic close as Legion takes on the whole team. Can Cannonball, Sunspot, Magma and Dani Moonstar defeat a villain with dozens of super-powered multiple personalities? And all the while Karma and Magik are stuck inside Legion's mind. Part 4 (of 4).The New Mutants make their last stand against the Omega classed "Legion". Karma is still stuck in his head trying to protect a little girl named Marci. Illyana has also teleported herself into Legions Psyche and is trying to kill as many of Legions personalities as possible.On the physical plane, the Mutants are having a hard time in dealing with the personalities who have taken over Legions body. Finding out that no matter what they throw at him, he has the power to counter act it. All of this on top of the fact that Sam and Dani are arguing because he ordered her away from the battlefield.

Who can blame him, after all it is hard to get news when you're buried away in the middle of Washington, DC. Samuelson claims that Europe can't bail itself out. He calls on the IMF to come to the rescue -- at the cost of dismantling Europe's welfare state.
Of course there is nothing wrong with Europe's welfare state, as everyone who bothers to look at the data knows. In fact the troubled countries have the weakest welfare states in Europe. The ones with the strongest welfare states, Denmark, Sweden, the Netherlands, and Germany, are doing relatively well.
It is also the case that Europe has plenty of money to bail itself out, it just needs the European Central Bank (ECB) to backstop the debt of the troubled economies. But the folks at Fox on 15th Street, where the guiding philosophy is that a dollar in a worker's pocket is a dollar that could be in a rich person's pocket, are so committed to destroying the welfare state that they are prepared to pretend that the ECB does not exist.
The point here is that the problems facing the euro zone today are primarily demand side. If someone from Mars landed in the euro zone with 600 billion euros (roughly 6 percent of GDP) and started spending them all over the place, the main effect would be to increase demand and employment. This would raise tax revenue and reduce transfer payments, alleviating the budget problems facing euro zone countries.
By contrast, the burden of an excessive welfare state is a supply side story. The generosity of benefits discourages people from working, reducing the supply of labor. In addition, the money dished out by governments in benefits creates excess demand, leading to inflation. This story does not at all describe the euro zone countries at present.
The NYT had a misleading piece contrasting the success of Germany with the difficulties facing the countries of southern Europe. The problem is not just a question of southern European countries emulating Germany, as the article implies. The problem is that Germany has acted to shut off the adjustment mechanisms that would allow southern Europe to accomplish this task
At the moment, southern Europe is not competitive with Germany, which is the cause of its large trade deficits. If these countries were not in the euro, they would simply devalue their currency. However, the euro rules out this option to restoring competitiveness.
The alternative would be to have a lower inflation rate than Germany. However, because the European Central Bank (ECB) has committed to sustaining an inflation rate of just 2.0 percent in the euro zone as a whole, there is very little that the southern countries can gain by having a lower positive inflation rate. Their only route within the euro to regaining competitiveness is to have a period of deflation. This is incredibly costly in terms of high unemployment and lost output. (Latvia is going this route now and has an unemployment rate in the high teens, after earlier hitting 20 percent.)
The German position on the heavily indebted southern countries is absurd. It wants to maintain its huge trade surplus with these countries, while still insisting that they make good on their debts. This is like a store owner insisting that his customers keep buying more from him, while still paying off their debts. This is not just a question of southern Europeans being resentful or jealous, Germany is asking for something that is impossible.
The article also likely misled many readers on Germany's growth, telling readers that it grew 0.5 percent in the third quarter. This number is a quarterly growth rate. It is standard in the United States to express growth as an annual rate. Germany's growth in the third quarter was approximately 2.0 percent at an annual rate.
Morning Edition did a three part series featuring segments on Ayn Rand, Friedrich Hayek, and John Maynard Keynes. In addition to the fact that two of these three are extreme conservatives, the pieces create a false symmetry on the influence of these three thinkers.
Keynes' work provides the basis for modern macroeconomics. The vast majority of the economics profession works within a framework that was established by Keynes, regardless of their political leanings. The influence of Rand and Hayek is nowhere near comparable.
Most major news outlets have done pieces touting the jobs boom associated with fracking. The story goes that allowing this relatively new form of drilling will both lower energy prices in the United States and also lead to an employment boom in the regions where the drilling takes place. And, how do we know there will be a boom? Well, the industry said so.
It turns out that the employment boom ain't all it is cracked up to be. The environmental group, Food and Water Watch, released a report yesterday that examined job projections for New York, which is considering ending a ban on fracking. The industry had projected that fracking in western New York would create more than 60,000 new jobs. Food and Water watch looked at the experience in the adjacent Pennsylvania counties, which allow fracking, and concluded that the potential job gains for New York are one-tenth as large, or about 6,000. And, this is before taking account of any jobs that may be lost due to environmental damage (e.g. in tourism associated with fishing, hunting, and camping).
In short, for these counties there is not much of an issue of jobs versus the environment. The number of potential jobs at stake are relatively few and most are likely to go to people living outside the region in any case.
[Disclosure: The researcher for this report was my wife, Helene Jorgensen.]
That's the question millions are asking. In an article on the supercommittee this morning we find a sentence like:
"Republicans indicated a willingness to do so [raise more revenue], aides said, but only in exchange for additional reductions to soaring Social Security and Medicare costs (emphasis added)."
A real newspaper would have just said that the Republicans were demanding "additional reductions in Social Security and Medicare costs." That would provide the same information as the Post's sentence in less space and without the editorializing.
Morning Edition included a discussion this morning (no link yet) with WSJ economics editor David Wessel and the Economist's economics editor Zanny Mintos Beddes. When the discussion turned to housing, David Wessel said that in retrospect we underestimated the extent to which housing would be a drag on the economy.
Actually, those who understood the housing market were saying at the beginning of the downturn and before that the collapse of the housing bubble would be a serious and longterm drag on the economy. It was easy to see that the loss of $8 trillion in housing wealth would substantially reduce consumption and that the enormous overbuilding during the boom was going to lead to a prolonged period of depressed construction. Wessel simply failed to study the factors driving the economy. There was no need for hindsight on this one.
At one point Zanny Mintos Beddes held out the possibility that resurgent residential construction might provide a boost to the economy in the near future. That seem unlikely since the vacancy rate is still near record highs.
[I just stumbled onto this one by chance. People who did their homework did not need hindsight.]
Two years ago the Republican party adopted a requirement that every time a party member used the word "regulation" it had to be preceded by the phrase "job-killing." Those who failed to comply were thrown out of the party.
The Post has a nice front page piece looking at the evidence that regulations are in fact serious job killers. The piece reports what almost all economists would acknowledge: regulations both eliminate and create jobs. Their net effect tends to be small.
Tell that to your favorite job creator.
Some folks are still missing the $8 trillion housing bubble and Robert Samuelson seems to be one of them. In reviewing the housing market it is important to notice that there is a very different story by regions. In many areas (e.g. Las Vegas and Phoenix), bubbles have fully deflated and we should look for house prices to stabilize and even rise some in the years ahead. In other areas, like Los Angeles and Boston, there is likely still some air in the bubble. In these markets, prices are likely to fall in the years ahead. This can be seen as a good thing, since it will make homes more affordable for new buyers.
It would be foolish to envision a single national housing market since different regions have very different dynamics. As a result, it would be very wrong-headed to try to design a single policy -- for example promoting higher prices -- for the nation as a whole.
A front page Washington Post article told readers:
"Analysts, however, said the United States could risk another downgrade of its credit rating and do further damage to business and consumer confidence if the supercommittee process implodes in a chaotic display of partisan rancor — for example, if a deal is approved by the supercommittee but is killed on the House floor. And analysts are deeply concerned that lawmakers could 'de-trigger' the automatic cuts, undoing even the modest steps Congress has so far taken to tame the soaring debt."
It would be interesting to know who these analysts are so that readers could know if these are the same people who could not see the $8 trillion housing bubble that collapsed and wrecked the economy. It would be also worth knowing if these analysts were among the group who claimed two years ago that large deficits would send interest rates on Treasury bonds soaring. Readers should be told if the experts whom the Post relies upon for its stories are primarily known for their misunderstanding of the economy.
The piece also includes the unsupported assertion that:
"the numbers obscure a larger ideological divide. Democrats are willing to trim spending on health and retirement programs in exchange for an overhaul of the tax code that would generate significantly more revenue, with most of the burden borne by the nation's wealthiest households.
"Republicans want to overhaul the tax code but lower the top rate from 35 percent to 28 percent and leave preferential rates untouched for capital gains and dividends. Roberton Williams, a senior fellow at the nonpartisan Tax Policy Center, said that approach would almost certainly guarantee lower taxes for the wealthy."
There is no evidence whatsoever in this statement or elsewhere in the article of any ideological divide. The evidence is that the Republicans are more directly responsive to the demands of the wealthy whereas Democrats feel the need to also be responsive the interests of other segments of the population. If there are ideological issues here, the piece offers no insight as to what they might be.
It is misleading to imply, as Morning Edition did, that Ayn Rand's philosophy was about free markets. The idea of promoting oneself at the expense of others, advocated by Rand, is consistent with taking advantage of whatever support one is able to get from the government in this process.
For example, the top executives of Wall Street banks are happy to take advantage of the implicit government guarantee given to too-big-to-fail banks as well as the explicit guarantee that is given through deposit insurance in addition to the support given by the Federal Reserve Board through access to its discount window and other facilities. It is politically advantageous for people who benefit from these and other types of government support to claim that they are advocates of free markets even if it is not true.

Holiday Sales Stink, Guess Whose Policies Aren't To Blame
The AP/Politico just can't find it in themselves to put any blame on the policies of Obama and Democrats
(Politico) U.S. holiday retail sales this year grew at the weakest pace since 2008, when the nation was in a deep recession. In 2012, the shopping season was disrupted by bad weather and consumers' rising uncertainty about the economy.
A report that tracks spending on popular holiday goods, the MasterCard Advisors SpendingPulse, said Tuesday that sales in the two months before Christmas increased 0.7 percent, compared with last year. Many analysts had expected holiday sales to grow 3 to 4 percent.
"Analysts" always seem to expect something big over the past 4 years, and always seem to be surprised when the numbers typically come out low. Anyhow, 4% growth is considered "healthy".
Shoppers were buffeted this year by a string of events that made them less likely to spend: Superstorm Sandy and other bad weather, the distraction of the presidential election and grief about the Dec. 14 massacre of schoolchildren in Newtown, Conn. The numbers also show how Washington's current budget impasse is trickling down to Main Street and unsettling consumers. If Americans remain reluctant to spend, analysts say, economic growth could falter next year.
See? They just can't find it in themselves to put any blame on Obama/Democrats. Now, if Bush was president, we all know he'd be the one to be Blamed. The Stimulus was a failure, along with all the other stimulus spending. $16 trillion plus in debt. Massive deficits. No budget in over 3 years from the Dem controlled Senate. Demonization of business and "rich people". Constant calls for tax increases. Obamacare. A storm of regulations, especially those announced once the election was over. A president unwilling to do anything but negotiate for more taxes and spending. An economy that has been sputtering since the end of the recession in summer 2009. These are the major forces.
Certainly, the Newtown murders and Superstorm Sandy were bad, but they only truly affected the economic activity of a small portion of the US. The presidential election? Please. That has nothing to do with Christmas spending. But, hey, 52% of the country was dumb enough to re-elect Obama, now they can sleep in the bed of economic malaise. Unfortunately, the rest of us have to suffer along.

Ambre and Loic are the sort of houseguest you hope will never leave and if they do that they will be back.

When I got ready to start the van I had a bad gase leak around 2 of the injectors. I fixed the leak but when I went back to start it I had no fire to plugs and no gase to the fuel rails. I checked the fuel pump and it works when I hot wire it. I checked all the fuses in the fuse box under the hood. I can,t find anything else that would stop it from firing up. The relays seem to be ok. Where does the fire come from that goes to the coil pack where is it routed from. I have no enorsha switch. I don,t think I have a theft switch. The 2006 looks just as the 2003 I only changed the intake on the top and the fuel pipe that came from one side fuel rail to the other because the fuel rail I have on the o3 has two lines coming off the rail one going back to the tank, and the o6 has only one. On the side of my fuel tube is a fuel regulator and I don,t remeimber one on the o6. Can u help me out?

Call to provide adequate compensation to the victims
Chief Minister V.S. Achuthanandan and the Left Democratic Front (LDF) are politicising the Endosulfan issue by organising a fast demanding a nation-wide ban on the pesticide, Leader of the Opposition Oommen Chandy has said.
Addressing a news conference here on Tuesday, he said the Congress-led United Democratic front (UDF) had refused to cooperate with the fast as the LDF government failed to take action during its tenure despite the Centre issuing a gazette notification on October 31, 2006 prohibiting the use of Endosulfan.
The Chief Minister's fast coincided with Convention of Parties to the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants in Geneva, he said.
Displaying a copy of the gazette notification, Mr. Chandy said the Centre had banned the use of Endosulfan in the State based on a request by the then UDF government in 2005. It had then issued a draft notification on October 26, 2005 calling for objections and suggestions in the gazette before final notification. All these years, the Left government had not registered a single case, carried out raids or seized any Endosulfan. Such an attitude showed the inefficiency of the government, he said.
The Congress leader also quoted excerpts from an interview with Agriculture Minister Mullakkara Ratnakaran which appeared in The Hindu stating that, "an agriculture officer can stop people when they are using it. He cannot stop the smuggling of the pesticides in jeeps and other vehicles."
But the government had failed even to conduct a search on an estate godown if agriculture officers were unable to check the smuggling of pesticides in jeeps or examine the pesticide samples sprayed at plantations, Mr. Chandy said.
Mr. Chandy maintained that the Central gazette notification was only a ban on the use of Endosulfan and not its sale and distribution when journalists brought to his attention that Hindustan Insecticides Ltd at Udyogmandal produced the pesticide.
If the government had any sincerity it would not have given a paltry sum of Rs.50,000 as aid to the kin of those affected. He criticised the government for not filing a counter petition when Plantation Corporation of Kerala Ltd. filed an affidavit in the High Court regarding the aerial spraying of Endosulfan in Kasaragod. Mr. Chandy said the Congress favoured total ban on Endosulfan.
The CPI (M) should spell out its stance on the issue including in West Bengal and Tripura, and so should the Bharatiya Janata Party, he said.

left. Rooms are very comfortable and all appear to have at least one
balcony.We ate at the hotel restaurany which was open until 10.30 in the

The hotel is just across the road from the train station, and a very short drive away from the airport. The room and bathroom were very clean. Helpful staff.

Alpha-1 antitrypsin is a laboratory test to measure the amount of alpha-1 antitrypsin (A1AT) in your blood.
A1AT test
A blood sample is needed. For information on how thisis done, see: Venipuncture
There is no special preparation.
When the needle is inserted to draw blood, you may feel moderate pain, or only a prick or stinging sensation. Afterward, there may be some throbbing.
This test is helpful in identifying a rare form of emphysema in adults and a rare form of liver disease (cirrhosis) in children and adults caused by an A1AT deficiency. A1AT deficiency is passed down through families. The condition causes the liver to make too little of a protein that protects the lungs and liver from damage.
Everyone has two copies of the gene that makes A1AT. Most people with lower than normal levels of A1AT have one normal gene for A1AT, and one abnormal gene. Persons with two abnormal copies of the gene have more severe disease.
Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
Lower than normal levels of A1AT may be associated with:
There is very little risk involved with having your blood taken. Veins and arteries vary in size from one patient to another and from one side of the body to the other. Taking blood from some people may be more difficult than from others.
Other risks associated with having blood drawn are slight but may include:

TV TERRORS Double Feature: "THE INITIATION OF SARAH" & "ARE YOU IN THE HOUSE ALONE?" (DVD Review)
I don't think it's necessarily true that in order to fully appreciate the charms of the 1970's TV horror movie, you had to in fact come of age during the 1970's, but there's no doubt it helps. This writer was birthed in 1974 and was exposed to such fare as far back as I'd had a memory. And of course, by the time I was completely cognoscente of pop culture in the dawn of the 1980's, most of the vintage made-for-television terror shows would be re-run ad nauseum in both prime time and – even better – late, late at night or in the wee hours of the AM. They were everywhere and, although pedestrian when stacked up against their theatrical counterparts, there was a certain je ne sais quoi that gave them a kind of power.Read more »

After the ruling, HTC vowed to make a tweak that would get around this infringement in future Android devices.Read More »

Just knew last batch of nectar was the last this season
I make 3 qts at a time needless to say most of it gets tossed
when changing/cleaning the feeders. I looked out just before
taking my grandson to the bus at 7:20AM and sure enough there
was my bossy hummer fluttering around the saucer feeder! It
seems so cold, I think its 50 degrees. And just to think the last 2 nights was 38 degrees and they (2) are still here!!
My friend said there was frost those 2 cold nights. Now its headed toward 80 degrees for this week.. so maby they will be here a while yet :) Commin'up another pitcher of nectar :) :)
alii-- Im on my third last bag of sugar but they still keep coming, had an adult male drop in for a day and half, was here yesterday morning but wasnt here last evening. May see another adult male before its over. But our time is getting short for this season.
This past week i have had 2 hummers left...seeing them less and less.....this am I got up and went out on the deck to see if i could see them and i saw 1......have not see any since and usually i see them more than once before noon...I'am thinking the one i saw this am was a passerby...I keep one feeder up till end of oct....I'am a little NE of Grand rapids

EWTN - POPE: Life & Times of John Paul II - Part 4 of 6 - Ministry Videos
Embed objektivonemusic 4412 views 2008-03-17T00:00:00 EWTN - POPE: Life & Times of John Paul II Part 4 of 6 The Pope, A penetrating documentary uncovering the powerful story behind the extraordinary life of his holiness, Pope John Paul II, the 263rd successor to the apostle Peter. "The Pope," reveals how the future pontiff, Karol Wojtyla, as a survivor of Nazi atrocities, communist persecutions, and an assassination attempt has emerged to etch vividly his place in history. Wojtyla's rise from a modest chemical plant worker in Poland to the pinnacle of power in the Catholic Church is one of the greatest stories of faith in the 20th century. (A different program was erroneously uploaded with this name earlier and it was renamed to 'Pope John Paul II: Conscience of the World')

Like, should I read this book: iOS Programming before starting with this book: Learning Cocos2D, or could I just start with the second book right away? I'm going to make iOS games, not utilities etc. I know Objective-C.

As it currently stands, this question is not a good fit for our Q&A format. We expect answers to be supported by facts, references, or expertise, but this question will likely solicit debate, arguments, polling, or extended discussion. If you feel that this question can be improved and possibly reopened, visit the help center for guidance. If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
You don't need to. Cocos2D only requires you to create a Cocos view and manages all the UIKit stuff behind the scenes, however you will miss on some interesting Apple-provided frameworks.
If you want to use geolocation, send emails, open SMS, add advertisement, play music from the user's Library, synch into Game Center, allow in-app purchases, you will need UIKit. My advice is therefore: go into Cocos2D first to have something fun rolling, and then learn what you need to make your game better/more profitable.
It would be useful to have a bit of knowledge of UIKit and some of the other Apple provided Frameworks before you dive in but otherwise no. You can jump right in with Cocos2D if you are familiar with Objective-C
There are benefits to knowing the frameworks and general iOS development practices before plunging right in with Cocos2D. There are things that you may want or need to configure or program outside of a graphics engine, such as game settings integrated with the System Settings, Game Center integration, audio frameworks usage, etc.
There is of course no hard and fast rule, but will definitely help you in the longer run.
