Natalie Portman
Out, Damned Natalie Portman! Out, I say!
Yesterday, it was announced that Michael Fassbender is going to play Macbeth in a new Macbeth movie, and I don't really see him in that role, but it sort of makes sense for him to play the King of Scotland since his dick is as big as the Loch Ness Monster. I secretly wished that they wouldn't mess up with the casting of Lady Macbeth, but guess what? Those hateful bitches did. Screen Daily says that when Macbeth starts shooting later this year, Natalie Portman will bring out her signature ugly cry to play Lady Macbeth. I'm sure William Shakespeare's grave is filled with only bone dust and a dusty lace ruff, but if lace ruffs can turn, I bet it's turning over this news.
Lady Macbeth is one of Shakespeare's hottest bitches, because she's a legendary schemer, is thirty layers of insane and if she was around today, she'd destroy all of those Real Housewives whores in a second. Natalie Portman can play crazy, because she is crazy, but she is no Lady Macbeth. Maybe one of Lady Macbeth's mute, bland handmaidens, but not Lady Macbeth. I mean, bitch didn't even serve cake at her wedding and you know Lady Macbeth rolled around naked on her own wedding cake. Seriously, anybody would be a better Lady Macbeth than Natalie Portman and here's a few better choices off the top of my brain:
1. Tilda Swinton
2. Nicole Kidman
3. Thandie Newton
4. Julianne Moore
5. Alan Cumming
6. Sweet Brown ("This spot? I ain't got time for that!")
7. Tanya Turner from Footballers Wives
8. Tan Mom
9. Liza Minnelli's clit
10. Meryl Streep in a coma
11. Harald Glööckler
12. Jinx Monsoon
13. Courtina Stodden
14. My Tio Jorge in drag as Celia Cruz
15. a plate of cold haggis
Basically, anybody but Natalie Portman.... Anne Hathaway.... Goopy Paltrow.... and Katherine Heigl. Oh shit, I bet they're going to cast Anne, Goopy and Katherine as the witches. Come you, spirits, kill me now!
Natalie Portman Didn't Have Cake At Her Wedding
The only answer to the question "Who in the hell doesn't serve cake at their wedding?" has sadly been answered. When Natalie Portman married that French dude who can tickle the air with his pointed feet, she had a strictly vegan menu, she wore an Italian toddler's communion dress circa 1964 and instead of delicious cake, she served French macarons. Some whores go to weddings to see two hos unite their love in front of God or whatever, but I only go to weddings for the cake (even if the cake is a sheet cake from Sam's Club) and for the open bar (even if the open bar is a plastic trash can full of ice bags and Coors).
People says that Natalie's reputation as a snobby leaf-humper of the highest degree remains intact, because she used local wildflowers instead of having flowers flown in and didn't serve anything that used to have a face on it to her 60 guests, which included Diane Sawyer, Mike Nichols, supposed heroin head Macaulay Culkin, Rashida Jones and Ivanka Trump. And again, she didn't serve CAAAAAAAAAKE!
I can eat a wooden bowl full of dehydrated baby's breath covered in kale foam as long as I know I'm getting some kind of delicious cake afterward. Yes, one can try to say that macarons are kind of like the French babies of CAKE, but it's still not CAKE. I wanna eat the mother! If Natalie Portman ever gets married again and you're invited to the wedding, make sure to call the local pizza place before the ceremony and tell them to meet you in the parking lot about 10 minutes into the reception. You'll be the one standing by the rented Dodge, holding the box of Little Debbie Zebra Cakes your ass bought at the nearest gas station.
When I first wrote about Natalie Portman's wedding, I was going to say that she probably each of her guests a baby tree as a parting gift. I was close, because she gave them a packet of wildflower seeds. WILDFLOWER SEEDS! That way each guest can plant those seeds in their backyard and every time they look at those flowers, they can think of how Natalie's cake-hating hippie ass drove them to suck down a log of Quarter Pounders smothered in Duncan Hines frosting at 3am in their hotel room. I mean, she didn't have CAKE! Illegal!
Natalie Portman And That French Twirler Got Married
I see you making a smug "My gold digger mission is complete!" face, Benjamin Millepied.
Natalie Portman and her ballerino piece Benjamin Millepied have been wearing wedding rings for months now even though they weren't married in the legal sense, but they changed all that last night when they said vow stuff to each other under a chuppah (not this Chupa) at somebody's house in Big Sur, CA. UsWeekly says they got married at around 8pm in the dark, but don't ask them for anymore details, because they don't have any right now. Even though no other details are known at this time, we can pretty much assume that Natalie's vows included some quote from a philosopher none of us know and in lieu of gifts the bride and groom asked guests to plant a tree or broaden their minds by buying and reading a book on a subject that is foreign to them. NO JOKE. One of my friends went to a smart people wedding and the bride and groom didn't want gifts, but they did want their guests to read a book and then to tell them about that book at the reception. Fuck that shit. I'm getting you a blender, bitch. This ain't school. I'm just here for the cake.
If I was a guest at Natalie and Benjamin's wedding, I'd be seriously disappointed if he didn't perform his vows through interpretive dance. I'd ask for a refund for the outfit I bought for that occasion. If the groom is a ballet dancer, I would to see some TWIRLS! And no word yet if during the couple's first dance, Natalie Portman did 85% or 5% of her own dancing.
Here's some pictures from June of Natalie, Benjamin and their 1-year-old kid Aleph strolling through Paris.
Natalie Portman Is Married, So Says Her Jeweler
Natalie Portman and the pirouetting father of her Ivy League graduate baby (yeah, he already graduated) Benjamin Millepied silently announced that their asses are married when they wore their wedding bands to the Oscars on Sunday. Maybe their silent announcement was an homage to The Artist? Or something. Natalie would rather eat raw meat out of a leather wallet (no euphemism, she's veganese) than talk about her personal life, so there's probably not a chance in hell she's going to confirm this. But who needs Natalie to confirm this when her jewelry designer will do it for her. Jooree designer Jamie Wolf tells People Magazine that those rings are of the marriage kind and she made them for Natalie and her huzzzzzbeeeeeend.
Jamie Wolf confirmed today that she designed Natalie Portman and Benjamin Millepied's "wedding rings," she shares in a release.Wolf created two diamond rings for Portman, made to fit on either side of her engagement ring, and a platinum band for Millepied. Both baubles are eco-friendly, made with recycled metals and conflict-free diamonds.
This marriage is going to last about as long as it takes me to do a full plié without farting (that could take a while, actually), so it was kind of smart of Natalie to not officially announce that she's somebody's wife. Because if she didn't announce the marriage, she doesn't have to announce the divorce in a year. Well, silently played, Natalie.
Jean Dujardin Knows How To Pose With An Oscar
If you're one of the lucky ones who missed the Oscars and want a full-on recap, just pour a glass of lukewarm tap water into a paper bowl full of instant oatmeal and watch as it slowly slowly slowly cooks, because that's about as exciting as the boring mess some of us sat through last night. Everybody kept saying that last night's show was like Werther's Original night in the rec room of a Boca retirement home since it felt like a moth ball air kiss from the Academy to the olds, but saying that is an insult to memaws and papaws. The olds didn't like that shit either. Trust. The olds thought they were getting a dancing Billy Crystal, but because he's fucked with his face so much they got a dancing mummified Kim Jong-Il instead. Most of the olds probably took off their teefs and went to bed before Best Supporting Whatever was passed out.
But besides Meryl Streep's speech, there was a bright spot among the bleakness. It came when Jean Dujardin wiped the permanent smugness off of George Clooney's face by winning Best Actor. Then Jean Dujardin kept the tingles coming by face posing for his life in the press room with Meryl Streep. Jean Dujardin is damn fucking charming. He's like a skinny Gaston from Beauty and the Beast without the doucheness. Sometimes his face looks like he's starring in a toothpaste commercial from the 50s and other times it looks like he's watching two unicorn babies slide down a complete double rainbow in the distance. Jean's face is always set to magic.
Looking at him holding onto that Oscar trophy makes me think that he probably gives the most charming handjobs ever. I bet he smiles that twinkly smile the entire time and gives you an extra twitch in your crotch when he raises his eyebrow at you. Normally, I'd think that smiling while cumming is totally creepy, but it isn't when you do it with smile master Jean Dujardin. It's impossible to not feel happy inside when you're staring at a French man whose smile makes you hear cartoon birds singing and shit.
What Did Natalie Portman Name Her Baby Friend?
Natalie Portman gave birth to a future Harvard valedictorian, Nobel Peace Prize recipient, savior of the animals and Oscar-winning human almost a month ago and we haven't heard one thing about any of them. No pictures of Natalie smiling next to her perfect human baby and the completed illustrated book report he did on Pride & Prejudice in his own drool for fun. No talk of how Natalie's perfect human baby has already discovered the cure for cancer in his own piss. We don't even know his name! We don't know if she named him Natalie Portman's Perfect Baby Portman-Millipied or Hebrew National Dijon Portman-Millipied. But when you don't say shit, you can always count on your relatives to say shit for you.
One of Natalie's cousins tells an Israeli newspaper (via ONTD) that she's given her baby the name of:
Alef is "A" in the Hebrew alphabet and apparently also means leader.
How is it pronounced? Is it pronounced "a leaf"? You know, like the thing Natalie pulls from the tree in her backyard and nibbles on in the middle of the field with a side of sun-baked sprouts as the woodland creatures happily dance around her because she's not eating their asses? Or is it pronounced "a lef." You know, like what Natalie is going to scream out at nobody in particular when Benjamin eventually twirls out of her life to get with a hotter slut in a tutu? "OH MY GAW! Benjamin A LEF ME!!!" No, since this is Natalie's baby, I'm pretty sure we have to pronounce it as: "our lord and savior."
Anyway, the name Alef Millipied is so Natalie (see: pretentious as fuck) and surprisingly I don't want to hiss at it. But maybe that's because if you drop the "e" in Alef, you'll have the name of a cat-eating hairy alien with a bread loaf nose.
Natalie Portman Gives Birth To The Most Perfect Human Being On Earth
In the middle of a Walmart in Oklahoma, Oscar-winning actress, Ivy League graduate and savior of the animals Natalie Portman gave birth to a son she has named Americus! No, but Natalie Portman and her fiancé Benjamin Millepied are now proud parents to baby boy she birthed out today.
People usually has every little detail down to how much the baby's brain weighs and if they made smoothies out of the placenta afterward (they didn't), but they don't have much this time. They don't have the name or anything else. This is Natalie Portman we're talking about so I'm guessing the name will be equals parts Jewish, French and pretension. Something like Y'hoshua Yves Portman-Millepied. Or maybe Woody Allen Baguette Portman-Millepied. It doesn't matter anyway, because in the near future we'll be calling her baby "overlord," I'm sure.
And how long before Natalie Portman's birthing double comes forward and says she only did about 5% of her own pushing?
Natalie Portman Breaks Her Silence On Twirlgate
Natalie Portman's fiance Benjamin Millepied, Black Swan's director Darren Aronofsky and Mila Kunis all came to her defense after her ballet double Sarah Lane said that she only did 5% of the fully body dance shots in the movie. Benjamin said she did about 85%, Darren said she did 80% and Mila asked if you were going to smoke the rest of that joint. And now Natalie herself has slid down from her golden ivy throne to address the rumors. Although, not really.
While all of us were in the hall whispering about how many j'newhatevers Natalie did in El Cisne Negro, she busted in and let us know that she's not going to dignify such idle gossip with a response! Natalie straight up swept Sarah Lane under the rug and then put her Oscar right on top. While promoting that Your Highness shit, Natalie stuttered this out to E! News (click here for the video):
"You know, I, it's it's....um...I know what went on. We, we had an amazing experience making the movie and I don't want to tarnish it by entering into nastiness, because it's such a positive thing what we get to do. We get to create things. I feel so lucky to be part of that, and um, I'm so proud of everyone's work on that movie and my experience. And I'll have that forever. And and and and and it's important for me to remember that no matter what nastiness is going around."
Bitch is stuttering so hard because ever her tongue is leaping, twirling and pirouetting! Because she's a REAL DANCER! No, but this whole "show me the pirouettes" thing has gotten more annoying than Nicole Kidman breathing out "I love to dahnce!" in those stupid ass Chanel No.5 commercials. So let's just bury it in our dressing room closets once and for all. It's time that we focus on way more important things. Like a sad kitten in a bucket:
How sad is sad kitten in a bucket? Submit your percentages by the end of the day.
The Percentage Game Continues!
Natalie Portman's face in that picture scares me too. We'll hold each other later, but for now we have even more "SHOW ME THE PIROUETTES" business to tend to. Sarah Lane, the professional ballerina who was Natalie's ballet doubles in Black Swan, opened the doors to Pliégate when she said that the Oscar-winning ivy league saint didn't do most of the fully body moves in the movie. Natalie's piece/choreographer Benjamin Millepied slapped at Sarah's claim and said that 85% of the dancing in the movie came from his fiancee's body. Sarah came back and said it was more like 5%.
Now Black Swan's director Darren Aronofsky is joining the most boring math class ever and tells EW that his calculations show 80% to 90% of the dance shots are of Natalie herself. I'm just going to raise my hand and say that 100% of this ri-fuckin-diculous, but let's let Darren go up to the board and explain how he got to 80%.
"Here is the reality. I had my editor count shots. There are 139 dance shots in the film. 111 are Natalie Portman untouched. 28 are her dance double Sarah Lane. If you do the math that's 80% Natalie Portman. What about duration? The shots that feature the double are wide shots and rarely play for longer than one second. There are two complicated longer dance sequences that we used face replacement. Even so, if we were judging by time over 90% would be Natalie Portman.And to be clear Natalie did dance on pointe in pointe shoes. If you look at the final shot of the opening prologue, which lasts 85 seconds, and was danced completely by Natalie, she exits the scene on pointe. That is completely her without any digital magic. I am responding to this to put this to rest and to defend my actor. Natalie sweated long and hard to deliver a great physical and emotional performance. And I don't want anyone to think that's not her they are watching. It is."
Natalie better pop some Dramamine into her unborn baby's mouth, because she's going to have to throw down in a TWIRL OFF! If Natalie wins, she gets to keep her OSCAH! If Sarah Lane, wins Natalie still gets to keep her Oscar because she won for doing acting stuff and not twirling stuff.
And Natalie was going to ask Sarah to do the pushing for her in her labor video, but she's totally changed her mind now!
Sarah Says, Benjamin Says
Let's recap. Sarah Lane, an ABT soloist who was one of two ballet doubles for Natalie Portman in Black Swan, already said that she did most of the twirling and leaping in the movie, but the producers wanted everyone to believe that it was Natalie so they told her to keep her lips shut. Sarah didn't. Benjamin Millepied, the movie's choreographer and half of the reason why Natalie's got a womb full of baby, retaliated by saying that his fiancee worked her toes off to move like a real dancer and that 85% of it was her.
Well, Sarah Lane is back and is hitting back at Benjamin with a giant NOPE. Sarah tells Entertainment Weekly that Benjamin needs to look at his abacus again and recalculate some shit, because Natalie did about 5% of her own dancing. THE PLOT THINS! Sarah went on:
"The shots that are just her face with arms, those shots are definitely Natalie. But that doesn't show the actual dancing. They wanted to create this idea in people's minds that Natalie was some kind of prodigy or so gifted in dance and really worked so hard to make herself a ballerina in a year and a half for the movie, basically because of the Oscar. It is demeaning to the profession and not just to me. I've been doing this for 22 years…. Can you become a concert pianist in a year and a half, even if you're a movie star?I mean, from a professional dancer's standpoint, she doesn't look like a professional ballet dancer at all and she can't dance in pointe shoes. And she can't move her body; she's very stiff. I do give her a lot of credit because in a year and a half she lost a lot of weight and she really tried to go method and get into a dancers head and really feel like a ballet dancer."
Benjamin answered back with: 85%
Sarah: 5%
Benjamin: 85%
Sarah: 5%
Benjamin: 85%
Sarah: Okay.
Benjamin: Yay.
Sarah: JK.
Benjamin: Damn. ......80%?
Are we really getting into the percentage game?! Sarah wants credit and Benjamin isn't going to give it to her. Or something. This is about as confusing as the damn movie. (SPOILER ALERT) When are we going to get to the part where when one of them stabs the other with broken glass and shoves 'em in a closet? Let's fast forward X10 to that part already. Actually, let's not. Instead let's go back and watch Winona Ryder say "Did you suck his cock? on a loop:
Now this is a game I like!

For the second time this year on Sunday, NASCAR and its drivers race at Pocono Raceway.
For the second and final time of 2012, NASCAR's Spring Cup series will race at Pocono Raceway on Sunday (1:12 p.m. ET on ESPN). Juan Pablo Montoya is the pole-sitter for the Pennsylvania 400, which will feature 160 laps around the 2.5-mile trioval.
Entering the race, Dale Earnhardt Jr., who's starting in eighth place, is the series' points leader and one of the favorites to claim victory as is teammate Jimmie Johnson, who starts 10th. Youngster Joey Logano, starting 14th, was the winner of the June race at Pocono.
Overall, the race could face some weather delays and NASCAR has already moved up the starting time because of it -- the race was originally suppose to start at 1:20 p.m. ET.
For more on the race at Pocono, check back to this SBN Philly StoryStream. Meanwhile, for everything NASCAR check out Jeff Gluck's twitter feed and this SB Nation NASCAR StoryStream.

The Seventh Commandment and the Cinema
Why tales of adultery bore me to tears.
Over Thanksgiving weekend, my husband Kevin and I saw the movie Anna Karenina. For the record, Lincoln was my first choice, but it was sold out. This particular version of Tolstoy's story was mostly beautifully rendered and decently performed, although I thought the casting of Count Vronsky was way off. Regardless, as I left the theater I felt disheartened. This story, like so many others, is basically a celebration of adultery. Well, perhaps "celebration" is not quite the right word, but certainly our sentiments – and our prurient interests – are focused on the unfolding of the illicit passion that drives the plot. Why is it, I wondered out loud to Kevin, that in real life most of us are horrified when we see a friend's marriage crumble …

Reducing math anxiety in Iceland
[01 May 2009]
I've had an interesting exchange of mails with a reader in Iceland. We talked about math, the financial crisis in Iceland, the environment and colonizing other planets.
I asked his permission to quote from our correspondence here, and he agreed.
Reynir subscribed to the IntMath Newsletter and wrote:
First of all, my dearest thanks for the great Interactive Mathematics website. I'm 23 years old and only after finding your site am I truly discovering math. I did well in elementary school math but after the age of 14-15 or so I had lost all motivation. I was a very sceptical child and the teachers never could answer my questions about the USEFULNESS of learning the material, nor did they address my questions of "why" and my thirst for understanding. It was pure parroting.
But I digress. The point is, now I'm finally freeing myself from the math-phobia and negative stereotypes that pervade my culture, and have begun learning math using your site. It is my goal in life to work in mathematics/science education, as I am outraged by the poor education that I received and I feel that humanity is in dire need of more scientifically literate people.
I digress again, dammit =D … I'll cut to the chase now, HONEST =P … I'm using your fantastic site to build a solid foundation from the ground (all the way down to the elementals) up to prepare myself for university. In addition to thanking you for your help, I also wanted to ask one question: I've found a couple typos on my journey through your material. Do you want me to point them out to you? Or just ignore them and move on?
Just thought I'd ask because I wasn't sure if it would be considered helpful or just annoying.
Best wishes from Iceland,
I'm glad that Reynir could find some answers to his quest for the usefulness of math in Interactive Mathematics. He is doing a good thing for reducing his math anxiety – he is reading over things himself. I applaud him for wanting to do something about "poor education".
I always welcome feedback and suggestions on the site, so I replied:
Hi Reynir
Thanks for the information and good on you for doing some learning before you attack your formal course.
I would very much appreciate feedback on any errors or typos you come across. This helps Interactive Mathematics to be better for everyone.
How are things in Iceland? Is it in the state of financial collapse that some news articles suggest?
He pointed out a few things that needed fixing on the site and then wrote:
Regarding the situation in Iceland… well you know news stations. From what I hear the foreign media is exaggerating quite a bit about us. Fact of the matter is, we were an extraordinarily rich country by world standards already, and this isn't really that big a deal. People aren't having any REAL troubles (like with food or housing) …. people are mostly bitching about losing things that were erroneously considered "needs", like luxury trips to Spain, and driving really expensive jeeps even if you never ever leave the city.
The people hit hardest are loan credit abusers and the like (many consumption-loans were made with foreign currency, so when our currency crashed, those debts almost doubled). Some people also just plain LOST the savings they had in the more risky funds or stock, and many are angry that the banks did not inform them fully about the risks. My savings were in a safer type of fund, but my plans of moving to another country some day have been dented quite a bit since the currency devalued almost 50% so my money's usefulness abroad has been cut in half.
But like I said it's not *really* that bad… I mean we're still a rich country by world standards. Many Icelanders are actually glad that the "financial disaster" happened, as they feel the nation had been getting way out of hand with disgusting showoff consumerism. I am partially glad about the positive effects of the crisis on Icelandic culture, but there is also the rising unemployment to think about… and I don't know what the situation will be like in a year or two.
P.S. Oh and one other nice side effect of the crisis is that Icelanders finally learned how to protest. We had been such pushovers before … now we actually had heavy protesting that lasted for months and eventually got the the crappy government FIRED out of office ;P … that's definitely one for our history books.
After fixing the typos and implementing other suggestions, I replied:
Thanks also for the insight into Iceland. What is it with these crazies that insist on driving gas-guzzling 4WDs that never leave the city?
All the best to you.
This pressed a button, and Reynir wrote:
Showoff consumerism, man, aka Keeping up with the Joneses.
I've studied anthropology a bit and thought about this phenomenon in particular… it's weird. I believe it's this exact same thing that makes people addicted to games like Everquest and World of Warcraft… being stuck in a system of competition for COMPARATIVE material status, when everyone else in the system is trying just as desperately hard to achieve the same thing. It's a zero-sum game, you can't be happy in that sort of culture without making someone else unhappy… and the people around you aren't gonna take THAT sitting down. And so the standards of what counts as "fancy" inevitably escalate ahead of your latest effort. But where does it end?
Have you heard of Richistan?
It's pretty amazing stuff. Billionaires running themselves into debt trying to out-do each other, in ways that make the average westerner wonder what the hell is wrong with them. Richistan is an example I use to illustrate to people that this whole thing is a never-ending pointless rat race, and that we ought to stop sleepwalking and define our OWN values and goals in life… instead of just letting advertisers and the like tell us.
Reynir has some interesting insights and by now we were merrily talking about all sorts of things. I replied:
Thanks for the link on Richistan, written in the height of the bubble. What worries me now is that so many Americans have suddenly found themselves quite poor and the social unrest implications of that (add at least one weapon per household to the mix) and it could get quite ugly.
Me – I'm starting to really like the idea of living in a log cabin in the woods, growing my own vegetables and having a few chickens. But wait, the "spring" water bottlers are sucking my (dream) stream dry and the factory pig farmers up river are polluting what's left.
Sigh – I despair for the 21st century…
Reynir's mails were becoming longer and longer:
Yes, I despair for the future of mankind too sometimes… and I agree with Stephen Hawking that the sooner we colonize another planet the safer this species will be.
About the woods thing… I have a (vaguely) similar idea going, which I try to get other people around me to join me in… namely resigning from the showoff-consumerism rat race altogether and deciding on those new values. Living inexpensively but happily and letting the excess money just build up. Then, when one has good financial security, do something to make the world a better place. Either by doing research to find a good organization that can be trusted or, if one doesn't want to trust ANY organization, just travel to a poor country and build a school or something.
(that's what I used to plan, because I didn't trust anything, frankly. But after watching some great TED speeches I now know a few organizations I would trust. Also the whole "investing in Africa rather than just giving aid" thing struck a nice chord with me.)
I did this interesting thought experiment once. After looking at other cultures I was rather amazed by what I saw going around in my own. Nobody seemed to have any money… everybody, from great salaries down to what's known in my country as "shit salaries" (which are still amazing salaries by global standards though), everybody seemed to be broke all the time. People acted as if money burned a hole in their pocket. But nobody FELT rich, because they didn't notice this stream of money passing them by, and their perceptions of what is "nice" or "fancy" just elevated along with their consumption levels.
I was appalled with all those crazy "standards" in my own culture. Not just the standards of what's "fancy"…. but the standards of what's "the bare minimum". One quick example… my brother was looking at apartments, and there was one which was just under a 100 square meters. And my mother called it a "rat hole", and berated him for even looking at such a "small" place (he lives alone btw). But meanwhile in countries such as Japan and South-Korea, where space is more scarce, people seem to be quite happy with apartments that in our eyes would be incredibly small.
Anyway, my thought experiment. I wanted to know what would happen if a person with a GOOD salary (say, an engineer at 1.2 million ISK per month) would live like a person with a "shit salary" (say, an unskilled worker at 200 thousand ISK per month). Now even the people at 200k live VERY RICH by global standards and we certainly could take it lower than 200k … but those were the parameters I decided on.
Now then, such a person would gather up 12 million ISK per year, and HALF A BILLION ISK over a 42-year career. Which translated into $8.3 million before our currency crashed by almost 50%. And that's only assuming he or she invests well enough to merely compensate for inflation.
I was dumbfounded by this. Even if we cut it in half to assume a person with a lesser salary, that's still a LOAD of friggin money!
So naturally I started asking myself… just WHERE is all that excess money going? Those vast riches that people don't notice, that pass them by like wind through their lives. And, well … those questions of mine yielded some interesting answers. There are several big money sinks, but the main one is housing loans. A 40-year housing loan in Iceland often means that people end up paying 120 million for a house that costs 20 million. So naturally I decided to avoid housing loans like the plague. I "recruited" some of my friends into this way of thinking, and we're saving up money to buy an apartment together, and pay on the spot. I only need one room for myself anyway, and that room can be my "apartment within an apartment", sort of. And we are all going to get filthy rich over time just from avoiding housing loans, let alone with all the other optimizations.
Anyway and then later on when I have nice financial security, I'll start putting chunks of that money to some good use somewhere one this lovely planet of ours. =) And since I don't plan on having kids (and even if I do I wont spoil them with a big inheritance), good causes will be pretty much the only thing on my will.
I hope to spread this way of thinking as much as I can, because many dream of doing major good deeds, and this is a way to do good deeds without working in the good-deeds-sector itself.
-ReynirP.S. You probably already know about this but in case you don't, I recommend checking out http://www.ted.com, it's awesome.
I'm really not sure about this desire to colonize other planets, so I wrote:
Hi Reynir
Thanks for your interesting (as usual) take on things.
I think i agree with all your points except the bit about colonizing other planets. For 1/1000000000 of the cost (or thereabout), we could fix up this one and run it sustainably. And how many people could enjoy the benefits of another planet? And it is highly likely you would need to live in a glass bubble when you get there, if you get there. Oh, and who wants to sit for years on some spacecraft, being bombarded with radiation, space junk and mini-comets that could destroy you?
I certainly have come across TED and I love what they have – great videos.
We then moved on to robots:
Yeah, after sending my mail I wished I had said "expand into space" rather than "colonize other planets". I absolutely agree that we can (and ought to) fix up Earth and run it sustainably, rather than to "finish raping this planet and then look for another one". Nor do I see expanding into space as a good solution to overpopulation. I just hope we do it as a sort of security measure, in case there some horrible disaster (man made or otherwise) that wipes out Earth-bound humans.
I don't particularly care what option we pick… terraform Mars, build nice bio-domes in orbit around the sun, or travel to other solar systems… as long as humanity, and the collective knowledge we have worked hard to build over millennia, is safe.
Oh and about the cost-in-space thing… that reminds me of an idea I had recently that I've been meaning to seek some "wizened opinions" on. Maybe you would like to tell me yours. Here goes:
The biggest cost with doing anything in space is lifting things off the Earth. But what if we could form a "swarm industry" in space nearly from scratch. The idea is to send a handful of self-replicating, semi-autonomous, remote-controlled robots. They would be small and numerous, to keep things decentralized and redundant (because of asteroid impacts and other accidents). They would be crude and few to begin with, just enough to enlarge the swarm from it's initial small seed number to ensure their safety. But later, not unlike how a human industry first starts with crude tools and then builds better tools, etc… they could be made to build more sophisticated "offspring", with increased specialization.
First I was thinking of mining asteroid belts. But then I thought, why not closer to home and less turbulent… the Moon!
As for energy, the swarm could harvest solar energy, and later maybe we could send some uranium into space and have the swarm build nuclear power plants. For once, environmental safety would not be a major engineering concern, heheh =)
In the end we could have a sophisticated industry for building and repairing things in orbit (satellites, space stations, space ships…) WITHOUT having to lift all that much off the Earth. And the only cost money-wise would be the initial cost of sending the "seed bots" out there and the ongoing cost of overseeing the swarm. Already we do a lot of space-lifting just for the sake of launching and repairing satellites. This could even SAVE us costs in the long run.
So what do you think? Does this make sense to you?
I responded:
Hi again Reynir
One of the interesting developments in space travel has been Richard Branson's attempts: http://www.virgingalactic.com/htmlsite/index.php?language=english
He showed that you could lift people into lower Earth orbit for much less than the Americans do each shuttle flight. If the airline industry survives, there will be flights that reach the limits of the atmosphere and will make Sydney – London a trip of only an hour or 2.
The idea of space robots is already in Nasa's planning: http://www.spacedaily.com/news/nasa-04h.html
But there is a big difference between people on a planet (or moon) solving day-to-day problems and robots.
As I said earlier, let's just spend 1% of the rich countries' budgets and put in place sustainable resource practices. If that ever happens, then we'll have the luxury of thinking beyond this planet.
At this point I thought we should share our discussion with a wider audience.
What do you think about expanding into space? Good idea or not?

Emerging from the GOP nomination confusion is a much needed national dialogue on the abuse of offshore tax havens by both U.S. corporations and individuals.
Even though the topic of tax havens was generated by the tens of millions in personal wealth deposited in the Cayman Islands by Mitt Romney, the problem is bigger than one Republican candidate. According to a 2008 Senate Homeland Security Report, the United States loses an estimated $100 billion a year to abuses of offshore tax havens and this loss of revenue is growing.
It is of benefit to begin this examination by defining the nature and purpose of a tax haven. According to the internationally renowned magazine, The Economist, an area is defined as a tax haven if there exists a composite tax structure established deliberately to take advantage of, and exploit, a worldwide demand for opportunities to engage in tax avoidance. This definition is generally accepted as accurate throughout the world, with the possible exception of the Republican Party.
The modern concept of tax havens first appeared in the aftermath of World War I when many European nations raised taxes to help finance reconstruction after the war. Because Switzerland remained neutral in the Great War it was able to maintain a low level of taxes, therefore becoming one of the first tax havens. Again during World War II Nazi war criminals used Swiss capital havens to hide assets stolen from Holocaust victims. In 1998, Swiss banks agreed to a $1.25 billion settlement to the families of Holocaust survivors and their families.
Beginning in the 1980s, other areas such as the Cayman Islands began to serve as a tax avoidance haven for both corporations and individuals. Many well known corporations use the Cayman Islands as a tax refuge, including Morgan Stanley, Citigroup and the Bank of America to name a few. It is easy to see why the General Accounting Office claims that a crackdown on offshore tax havens would bring an additional 1 trillion dollars in revenue to America over the next 10 years.
The question becomes; what then should America do with the additional 100 billion in revenue each year to strengthen our economy and create jobs? First, we could use the increased revenue as incentives to corporations to create jobs here in the United States rather than outsourcing our jobs.
In addition, we could also use the revenue to support research and development here in the U.S. The key to America's future success is directly tied to the amount of funding we place into research and development in areas such as information technology, medical research, energy alternatives, and high speed transit. America will quickly fall behind the rest of the world if we continue to cut funding for research and development.
The revenue should also be used to encourage young people to enter the fields of science, medicine, and engineering. Investment in education is the best vehicle to ensure that future generations of Americans have a strong economy and a better life than their parents. These ideas are just the beginning, there is so much good that could be done for the American people if we crack down on these offshore tax havens.
For most hard-working Americans there is no such thing as tax havens; they work hard and they pay their taxes, but there are too many in our country that think they are too important, too powerful, or too wealthy to pay taxes like the little people. Well I say to these privileged elite, this is still a nation of the people, by the people, and for the people, and corporations are not people, corporations are not patriotic, and they hold no love or allegiance to America, they are "international."
It is not corporations that fight and die defending America, it is hard-working, tax-paying Americans who do the tough job of dying for their country while corporations profit from war then show their total lack of patriotism by hiding their profits in tax havens in the Cayman Islands.

Excellent story......should not have been buried in the locals. The only thing I worry about is the almost all those congressmen and senators in Washington are lawyers that wrote the laws to get this way. They are also part of the 1 percent and the prove it everyday. Again excellent story!!!!

I agree, excellent story! This article should not be buried in the locals section and should receive a more obvious location on this site. In addition, this writer has a clear, concise, and historical perspective on complex issues. We need to promote more discussion on this very important topic. Giving away our future and hiding money is not in anyway honest, moral, or just to all of our servicemen (who have given so much to this country), our children in need of a quality education to compete in a global society, nor our seniors who have worked a lifetime to ensure the country's success. Corporations need to pay their fair share, with the tax money gained used to benefit further investment in our country. Wealthy individuals need to demonstrate the same strength of character. It is time that the vast majority of citizens whom pay their taxes see the definition of 'tax havens' for what they truly are: stealing.

Rather than complain about taxes, we need to think about revenue.
US corporate tax rates are out of step with the rest of the world. When additional state rates are added, the average marginal tax rate for U.S. corporations rises to 39.2%, the second highest in the developed world, only slightly behind Japan's. But revenue from corporate taxes represents only about 2.1% of GDP, which is at the lower end of developed countries. Why is the revenue so low when rates are so high?
Current corporate tax laws are complicated by too many credits and deductions that benefit a narrow set of (politically preferred) taxpayers at the expense of the many. This results in some corporations not paying any tax at all.
The solution is to lower statutory rates and simplify the tax code by eliminating most deductions and credits. When rates are lower, there is less incentive for companies to keep profits overseas, and more incentive to return those profits to shareholders. This also lowers compliance costs for everyone, estimated to be as high as 30% of revenue. That means companies are spending $30 in regulatory compliance costs for every $100 they send to the government.
Corporate tax simplification will raise revenue, save companies and their shareholders money, and allow the US to be competitive in the global marketplace.

I need to add one more comment. The TOTAL REVENUE paid by US corporations to foreign countries in 2007 (the most recent year for which comprehensive IRS data is available) was $100 billion. To claim, as the author does, that closing loopholes would increase revenue by that same amount is silly.
In fact, the larger problem created by our high statutory rates is not lost revenue, but profits not realized by American shareholders, pensioners and 401K owners, since the money is kept overseas.

Sad to see that Obama's class warfare made it to the Patch. When are we going to see that tax burdens are what cause people and companies to seek shelters in the first place?
Bob Griffiths
10:04 am on Saturday, January 28, 2012
Obama's class warfare???? It is evident that the "class warfare" defense is what the banks and securities firms will use to defend their illegal acts, their crimes that drove America into economic collapse by 2007. The pursuit of the truth is not class warfare, it is justice. In President Obama's State of the Union address he announced he was in the process of creating a special unit within the Department of Justice to investigate and prosecute the financial fraud perpetrated on the American People by those institutions that caused our economic collapse. That was great news to the State Attorney Generals that have been fighting alone to prosecute corporations for financial fraud.There is one fundamental difference between the Great Depression of 1929 and our Economic Collapse of 2007, in 1929 the American People knew who was to blame and who needed to be regulated, and that was the banks and Wall Street, but this time the banks and Wall Street are trying to convince the American People that the "people" are to blame by screaming about class warfare. I have a feeling the "class warfare" defense will not work when the American People find out the seriousness of the crimes and deception committed by banks as they drove the housing market and our economy over a cliff.

"While we are unable to comment on individual cases, we would like to assure patients there is a procedure GP practices need to follow before they can remove patients from their lists."
Even the hospitals and doctors are not free to think and act independently. They have their overlords as well.
Well brother, you asked for it.

If you think that this problem is remote from us, think again. Investigate Chairman Gilmore, his partner, highly paid poltical appointments, and attorneys, engineers, etc. you will find such goings on right here. Did Ritacco hide some of his money there? I agree the tax code must be rewritten, but something must be done quickly. We are being robbed.

TNT to sell airline operations to ASL
TNT Express has agreed to sell its airline operations to Dublin-based ASL Aviation in an effort to safeguard a deal to combine with United Parcel Service.
The transaction is conditional on the completion of UPS's proposed €5.16 billion purchase of TNT, the company said today in a statement. Financial terms were not disclosed.
TNT stock has been trading at a discount to UPS's €9.50-a-share offer price as investor scepticism of the deal grows.
Since announcing the purchase on March 19, Atlanta-based UPS has twice pushed back the target date to complete the biggest acquisition in its 105-year history as the regulatory review continues.
"This is an important step towards completion of the proposed UPS-TNT Express merger and a positive outcome for the airline employees," Bernard Bot, interim chief executive officer of TNT Express, said in the statement.
TNT will sell 100 per cent of TNT Airways and Pan Air Lineas Areas to ASL, which operates 90 aircraft offering freight and passenger services, the company said.
"This change of ownership and control will ensure service continuity of the TNT Express operations after the completion of the proposed merger," the company said today in the statement on its website.
TNT stock jumped as much as 4 per cent, the most since it announced it was in takeover talks with UPS in February, and was trading 1.5 per cent higher at €7.07 as of 9.33am in Amsterdam. That values the company at €3.8 billion.
The future of TNT's air operations had been called into question by the deal since companies from outside the European Union may not hold stakes above 49 per cent in airlines.
"It is definitely a short-term positive," Zurich-based Credit Agricole analyst Beat Keiser, who rates TNT Express underperform, said by telephone.
"It will be business as usual, because of the guarantee they've given. There were probably a few interested parties, but that they've found a buyer is positive."

The Redwater, Texas teenager accused of killing a mother and her two children has plead guilty to charges of murder as part of a plea deal.
Rachel Pittman went before a judge Friday afternoon at the Bi-State Justice Building in Texarkana, Texas.
She plead guilty to the murders of Amanda Doss, 34, and her two children Guinevere Doss, 11, and Texas Johnson, 8.
Judge Leon Pesek, Jr. sentenced Pittman to two consecutive life sentences with the possibility of parole in 30 years.
In 2011, Pittman was arrested for fatally stabbing the family of three and then setting the house on fire.
In court Friday while being questioned by her attorney, Pittman broke into tears when asked about seeing the photos of the victims.
A victim impact statement was also read by Doss' parents, Glen and Wanda Prewett.
The family reminded Pittman that she was a family friend saying "You know the impact you caused. Amanda trusted and befriended you. Now how can we ever trust anyone again."
Pittman's lawyers say it was a hard day in court for everyone involved.
"If you listen to the comments the victims made, I can't imagine going through what they went through but then I can't imagine going through what this young lady went through either," said Scrappy Holmes, Defense Attorney.
Prosecutors say they're relieved that the plea will end this case and will spare the family the burden of a jury trial.
Because Pittman was 16-year old juvenile at the time of the crime, the death penalty or life without parole was not an option in this case.
Details of the murders or motive have not been released.

REKS - I Remember
Artist: REKS
Featuring: Rapper Big Pooh
Producer: A3
Album: Revolution Cocktail
Label: Gracie Productions
We all know that the revolution will not be televised, but how will it sound? At the very least Boston native REKS has an idea of what it should sound like, and that's why he has named his upcoming digital album Revolution Cocktail. Although he's delayed the release until Febuary 26, we have his latest offering, I Remember, featuring the always solid Rapper Big Pooh and produced by A3, who contributes a smooth, soul sample-laced ode to personal nostalgia. This kind of suavity might not be the sound we tend to associate with anarchy, but there's nothing wrong with taking a moment every now and then to get your old man two-step on. If you're feeling I Remember, be sure to check out Revolution Cocktail, out via iTunes later this month.

Who to Contact

- 215.895.2185
- Center City Campus
- 215.762.7577
The Second Interview
If the interviewer determines that you do have the proper skills and credentials for the position, you will be invited to the company location for the second interview. You may expect to receive notice of a second interview between two and three weeks after your first interview. Sometimes recruiters will contact you the following day, other times it may be a few weeks; this timing may vary depending on the time of year and company's recruiting procedures.
The second interview is usually at the expense of the company. You should inquire about travel expense policies should you need to travel a great distance to the employer location. Specifically ask, "How do you wish for me to handle travel arrangements and expenses?"
The purpose of the second interview is to determine how well you may fit with the company and the position. You may expect to be asked more questions that will delve into your preferences and motivations, likes and dislikes of past experiences. You may also expect to be asked more "Why?" questions. For example, "Why did you choose Drexel?" or "Why did you decide to major in...?" By asking "Why?" questions, the employer will not only try to determine if you will find the position rewarding, but will also be listening to hear if you make decisions by thoroughly evaluating the question or haphazardly bringing closure to issues or problems.
Prepare yourself for a rigorous visit. Many second interviews will last several hours. You can expect to meet with managers, recent hires from your university, and prospective coworkers during the visit. You energy level should remain high throughout the visit. With each interviewer, keep in mind the agenda and ask questions prior to leaving, if not during the course of the conversation.
The average time between the second interview and a job offer is three weeks, but may vary by employer. Employers interviewing through the On-Campus Recruiting process usually hire in cycles that end in May

Although it may not be obvious to the average citizen, over the past 154 years, Cheraw Town Hall has been slowing sinking. Town officials have recognized this threat to the historical structure and safety of the building and have executed a plan to save the 1858 structure that has, literally, become a symbol for the town.
Simply stated, "the foundation is sinking and we're stabilizing the building," said Randall Bird, of Eagle Construction and Contracting, the company out of Bishopville hired to do the renovations. But the process of stabilizing the building and its foundation are far from simple.
According to David Sides, director of tourism and community development for the Town of Cheraw, a $25,000 matching grant from the South Carolina Department of Archives and History has allowed Cheraw Town Hall to "remain a part of the landscape for the town's next generation."
"When you have a structure that has survived like our Town Hall, it requires a certain amount of regular maintenance," said Cheraw mayor Andy Ingram. "The town is fortunate that we are one of the recipients of this state funding."
For all kinds of reasons in relation to structure and safety, the work has and must be done in stages. Bird noted visible evidence in the window sills of the building that are turning down and outward. "We call it sinking and rolling" said Bird, "and that's a sure sign of trouble."
"When the building was constructed, the carpenters cut the weatherboards to resemble stone blocks to give the building more prominence," said Sides. "However, Town Hall is actually built of wood, and over time, the wood has weakened, causing the building to deteriorate."
"There's no jacking the building up," said Bird. "And we can't correct the problem, but we can stop it from getting any worse. And we can only do sections at a time. It's just the wise thing to do."
"We kept the theater across the street from falling in on itself a few years ago," said Bird. Although the Theatre on the Green is a brick structure, that building suffered similar foundation problems.
The crew is currently working on the side of the building closest to the Town Green. "The whole building needs it, but this side is worse."
The crew has actually been working, on and off, on the project for more than a year. New beams that run vertically from the floor to the second story roof line, along with steel beams in the foundation, have been installed and reinforced. The next step will be to fill in around the old brick foundation with fresh concrete, said Bird.
The temporary exterior support beams, visible under the blue tarp, will remain in place for at least a week, allowing for the concrete to dry completely, said Bird.
The crew has been working mostly at night, so as not to disturb town hall employees. "I appreciate old buildings like this," said Bird, "I guess I have sort of a passion for them." He also said he and his crew have grown rather fond of the people working inside town hall.
"We've developed a great loyalty to the town of Cheraw. Everybody here has made us feel welcome," said Bird. "It's not like any other municipality I've ever worked for."
According to Sides, Town Hall used to be known as the "Opera House." In the early days, said Sides, "the building included a small auditorium and stage on the first floor. The second floor was the venue for a number of social gatherings, including dances, musical recitals, and conventions."
The building is now used primarily for office space for Town of Cheraw employees, Cheraw Town Council and other meetings, and Cheraw's traffic court.

Amazon: Kindle Fire HD users can opt-out of ads after all
Just a day after confirming that consumers would be unable to opt-out of the Kindle Fire HD's integrated lockscreen ads, Amazon has reversed its decision. Confirmed in a statement issued to The Verge, users will now have the ability to disable "Special Offers" by paying a $15 fee. In an effort to keep retail costs down, Amazon has implemented advertising space into the software of each model in its Kindle range. According to the statement, Amazon believes few users will opt to pay the extra fee, but that they should be allowed to have the option. In any case, those concerned about the potentially intrusive ads can rest easy.
