CEO compensation decreased more sharply at banks and brokerages, long the source of some of the biggest paychecks. Median annual cash compensation for CEOs in the financial industry fell 43%, to $976,000. Total direct compensation fell 14.2%, to a median $7.6 million.
So that's what happens when you destroy the global financial system: your pay goes down 14% to a mere $7.6 million per year. I guess we showed them, didn't we?

Once lauded for building Columbia/HCA into the largest health care company in the world, Mr. Scott was ousted by his own board of directors in 1997 amid the nation's biggest health care fraud scandal....."He's a great symbol from our point of view," said Richard J. Kirsch, the national campaign manager for Health Care for America Now. "We cannot have a better first person to attack health care reform than someone who ran a company that ripped off the government of hundreds of millions of dollars."Conservative health care activists, while glad to have a potential ally willing to spend $5 million out of his own pocket, are not fully embracing Mr. Scott...."I just don't understand why he would be a messenger people would listen to," said Charles N. Kahn III, who was a senior executive with the insurance industry group that ran the "Harry & Louise" advertisements credited with helping to kill the Clinton plan 15 years ago but who is working for a deal now. "I don't think people are waiting to hear from him."....Mr. Scott has said his sole policy interest is to see to it that whatever overhaul Mr. Obama and Congress consider does not move the country toward a socialized system and away from what he calls his four pillars of reform: "choice, competition, accountability and personal responsibility."
Ah, yes: competition and accountability. Let's talk about that, shall we? Or, rather, let's outsource it to our very own Blue Girl, who just happens to have worked at HCA back when they were bilking the taxpayers out of millions of dollars. If you want to know how they did it, she's got the story right here. It was simple! And it'll remind you of Enron, IndyMac, AIG, and all the other bright lights of competition and accountability in corporate America that we've come to know and hate.
And for a real zeitgeist blast, there's also this: Scott steadfastly maintains that he did nothing wrong, and for his current venture he's hired the same PR firm that represented Swift Boat Veterans for Truth in 2004. Central casting could hardly do better. The wingers really know how to pick 'em, don't they?
Heading into the summit's final hour [] it appeared that the group would fail to reach a consensus, as French President Nicolas Sarkozy pushed to have the G-20 spotlight offending tax havens based on a list published Thursday by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, and China objected, largely because it doesn't belong to the OECD.That was when Obama, long a champion of ending or curbing tax havens, decided to float a compromise and pulled Sarkozy aside....Obama proposed that the G-20 merely "take note" of the OECD list, thus opening the door to implicit but not direct endorsement of that list.....Obama then met with Chinese President Hu Jintao and Sarkozy in a corner of the summit meeting room, as the other world leaders waited. Upon the trio's reaching agreement, the G-20 summit then agreed to note the list of tax havens.

I guess I shouldn't make fun of this stuff. The world is what it is. But seriously: today's big ruckus was about whether to "spotlight" tax havens or to merely "take note" of them? Jeebus.
Of course, this is all based on the word of an anonymous White House official who's got a vested interest in making Obama look like a diplomatic powerhouse. And this business of China objecting to an OECD list because it doesn't belong to the OECD is almost certainly bogus. (More likely it's because Macao and Hong Kong are tax havens and China isn't keen on having them cleaned up.) So who knows if this story is even true?
But it sounds disturbingly plausible. Of such stuff are diplomatic communiqués made.
Across the 12 knowledge items tested, the biggest gap between Democrats and Republicans comes over awareness of the current level of the Dow.
That's a shocker, isn't it?
In fairness, Pew reports that Republicans, men, old people, college graduates, and the upper middle class are more knowledgable in general than Democrats, women, young people, high school dropouts, and poor people. So it's not just the Dow. But lest you get too impressed with the overall scores on this multiple choice survey, Steve Benen points out that "the same Pew Research Center report found that 11% of Americans still think President Obama is a Muslim, which is practically unchanged since the presidential campaign. About one-fifth of all white evangelical Protestants continue to buy into this obvious falsehood."
Take the test here if you dare. I expect all my readers to score 100%.
Every one of the anti-Koh rants dutifully repeats a canard that first appeared in a hatchet piece in the New York Post by former Bush administration speechwriter Meghan Clyne. She asserts that Koh believes "Sharia law could apply to disputes in US courts." The evidence for her claim? "A New York lawyer, Steven Stein, says that, in addressing the Yale Club of Greenwich in 2007, Koh claimed that 'in an appropriate case, he didn't see any reason why Sharia law would not be applied to govern a case in the United States.' "....But, of course, Koh believes nothing of the sort. And the only real revelation here is that truth can't be measured in Google hit counts or partisan hysteria.....Clyne's gross distortions of Koh's views have gone completely unanswered in the mainstream press. You can certainly argue that ignoring the whole story signals that it's beneath notice....[But] when moderate Americans and the mainstream media allow a handful of right-wing zealots to occupy the field in the public discussions of an Obama nominee, they become complicit in a character assassination.
The right-wing nutcase machine really does seem to have picked up from its Clinton-era follies without missing a beat. But although Lithwick right about the moral dimensions of this kind of smear campaign, there's also a practical aspect: it's yet another part of the increasingly dismal Senate kabuki show that makes it harder and harder to fill high-level administration positions. It's one thing to go through this kind of harangue to become Secretary of State, but it's quite another to go through it to become merely a high-level aide, and as this stuff gets more and more rabid, fewer and fewer people are willing to put up with it.
So let's knock it off. We can't stop the wingnuts, but we can take the wind out of their sails by taking away their platform. After all, is there really any reason why the Senate needs to confirm the legal advisor to the State Deparment in the first place? No? I didn't think so.
(2d) There has to be international agreement on restricting the size and scope of financial institutions. Aggressive enforcement of anti-monopoly policy and the imposition of capital requirements that are increasing in the size of a bank (for given leverage and risk) would be two obvious tools for achieving this.
This seems both better and more workable than a flat cap on assets. What he's suggesting is that the bigger a bank gets, the higher its capital ratio should be. This accomplishes two things: (1) it puts natural downward pressure on bank size since higher capital requirements reduce leverage and profitability, and (2) if a bank gets big anyway, the higher capital ratio makes it less likely to fail and cause systemic problems. Sounds reasonable to me.
All that you suspect is true. Bill Kristol, wearing a Viking helmet and a bone through his nose, exhorted the participants to invade Chad, just because. He may have listed other countries, but he was speaking in tongues and war whoops half the time, and my Neo-con-to-English translation kept dropping out. Bob Kagan followed, bare-chested (as usual), in full war paint, banging the Mayflower china with a combat boot, shouting that America needed to put 10 million men under arms to extend its hegemony (benevolent, of course) into the Arctic, shouting something about the road to Moscow leading through the North Pole.I saw this with my own eyes, people.If only. It would have been a lot more exciting, that's for sure. As it was, the conference was a pretty staid affair.
But look: that's the whole point. Bill Kristol and Bob Kagan and all the rest of their neocon bretheren (and sisteren) are sober, suit-wearing, well-modulated members of the foreign policy establishment. If you listen to what they actually say, they're every bit as radical as any pony-tailed denouncer of empire from the wilds of Berkeley, but they rarely get called on it because they just sound so damn reasonable while they're suggesting a 3-week bombing run to wipe out Iran's nuclear facilities.
Kristol is, within the boundaries of polite society, always in favor of the maximally provocative, maximally militaristic response to any foreign policy problem. He's about as extreme as you can get this side of the Michigan Militia. But he wears a nice suit, has a good sense of humor, and makes his doctrine of endless interventionism sound almost soothing. Who wouldn't want to occupy the Middle East after listening to Kristol's feel-good version of how it will all turn out?
So yesterday's kickoff was "a pretty staid affair"? Of course it was. That's the whole problem.
What concerns me is that it's not clear how it gets better. Waxman and Markey probably represent the leftmost edge of the possible. They're aggressively liberal, terrifically informed legislators who get the moral urgency of climate change and possess the intellectual firepower to grasp the necessary scale of the response. If this is as far as they felt able to go on an opening bid, it's hard to see the legislative pathway that strengthens, rather than weakens, the legislation.
A bill that started out with no offsets and no allocation might eventually end up with offsets and allocation. But what happens to a bill that caves in on these issues right at the start? It gets even worse as it wends its way through the sausage factory, that's what.
As Ezra says, Markey and Waxman are as good as they come on this stuff, and if they don't believe that a clean bill stands a chance even as an opening bid, they're probably right. And God knows, making the perfect the enemy of the good and getting nothing done at all is practically a liberal art form. Passing this bill in some form or another is certainly way better than passing nothing.
But still. It's hard not to be a little let down by this. If this is the best we can do, Bangladesh better get used to being a permanent swamp.
UPDATE: Dave Roberts notes that this is a b-i-i-i-i-g bill, combining a potentially unpopular cap-and-trade program with a tremendous amount of other stuff: "The fact is, doing these pieces separately would mean three, four, possibly five bruising legislative battles, culminating in a battle over cap-and-trade that, in my estimation, simply can't be won on its own in this Senate....So they've decided, uncharacteristically for Democrats, to double down. They are piling all this stuff into one big-ticket, high-profile, must-pass bill....There is now a single point of focus, a put-up-or-shut-up moment. Anyone who wants to transition to a green economy or get the country off foreign oil or prevent global warming knows what to get behind. If nothing else, there will be no doubt by next year whether we're serious about this sh*t."
True, that. My reservations aside, this bill is the best thing we've seen on the energy front in a long, long time. I just wish it were even better, that's all. A guy can dream, can't he?

Let the planting begin!
We may have just said good-bye to summer, but it's not too early to be thinking about what will be sprouting in your garden come spring. Actually, early fall, when the soil is beginning to cool, is the time to plant flower bulbs that will produce some much anticipated color in your yard after the long, cold winter months.
Years of experience have taught me that there are a some simple tips to remember when planting bulbs that when followed will ensure a garden bursting in color come spring.
Choose your bulbs wisely. Always look for bulbs that are firm to the touch, avoiding ones that are soft or moldy-sure signs that the bulb is rotting. Be selective, large bulbs=large blooms. Who wants wimpy flowers, right? When choosing your bulbs consider when they will bloom. Ideally, you want a variety of bulbs so that you'll have new blooms coming up from early spring to early summer.
The tulips will give my garden color in early spring, the alliums later in the season.
Don't Forget ThisTip #1: It's best to plant bulbs soon after purchase, but if that isn't possible, store bulbs in a cool dry spot.
Plan before you plant, but don't over think. Rather than haphazardly planting bulbs, lay out the bulbs on the area where you're planning to plant before digging your holes. Keep in mind that there are no straight lines in nature so there is no need to get out a ruler to perfectly space your bulbs. A more organic layout will be pleasing to the eye when your flowers bloom.
No need for perfection here!
Don't forget this tip #2: If deer or squirrels are a problem in your garden use daffodils at the border of your garden, these animals are repelled by the scent.
Let the planting begin! When it comes time to plant, dig a hole approximately 3 times the height of the bulb. Speed up the process by using a bulb planting tool. Short handled ones are fine for softer, sandy soils, but a longer handled one like the one pictured below are helpful if you have clay soil.
Don't forget this tip #3: If you're short on time it's possible to dig one large, rectangular hole and lay your bulbs out all at once. Just be sure that you leave adequate space between bulbs and that your hole is the proper depth.
Don't forget this tip #4: Phosphorus is vital to large bulbs like hyacinth, tulips and daffodils. Adding a sprinkling of bone meal (readily available in garden stores) to the hole before placing your bulb will provide the needed nutrients.
Protect your bulbs: After planting remove all traces of bulb waste that might tip off animals where your bulbs are planted. Further protect the area by covering your newly planted areas with a generous layer of mulch. As autumn progresses, use fallen leaves as an added layer of protection throughout the winter months.
I like to separate my iris bulbs in the fall to fill in bare spots in my flower beds.
Will you be planting any bulbs this year? What is your favorite spring flower?

I found another sofa next to a dumpster waiting to be picked up. I happened to have a sledge, prybar, and a utility knife in the truck so I started to dismantle it. To my surprise I found some beautiful walnut and oak. After cutting off the staples and bad pieces I was left with enough usable wood to make a cutting board. I added a 30 degree chamfer along the bottom like last time. The final measurements are 11×15 x 1.125. Its a little thin for my liking but id much rather have a thin cutting board for free than see all that beautiful wood rot in a landfill.

...... okay
Okay, its another humor post, but after years of trying to defeat She-ra and the rebels, a new threat has arrived on Etheria, and that threat is none other than Bugs Bunny
Can Hordak with all his power defeat Bugs Bunny? All should he leave Etheria while he still can.

Leela: "What's the secret of time travel doing on Fry's ass?"

That was funny, but not for the reasons the thread started intended it to be...
Yeah, you also usually don't have to tell someone that something's funny unless there's some doubt about it.
I was actually half zombie like when i posted this in the first place, you post something but don't know what your posting.....oh well
Heheh.. When I was still living at home, my dads friend called.. and it was kind of late.. and my dad got it after the answering machine had kicked in.. He talked to his friend for 45 minutes and then went to sleep like nothing had happened.. my mom was just the whole time.. and the next morning she asked him what his friend had to say.. and he said "what're you talking about, I didn't talk to him last night" so she presses play on the answering machine and goes "oh really??"
Having whole conversations that way can be verry bad. I have done that on cold medications more times then I care to count

Judging by how Perfuma drove Hordak completely crazy in "Flowers for Hordak", I fear for Hordak's health once Bugs starts dressing up in dresses, and dancing with his Horde troppers.
"I'm not just crying for Hordak. I'm crying for the saddest thing I know - a wasted life. To be given that most precious gift - the gift of living, to do with as we choose. I'm crying, because this man has chosen to throw it away, and when he goes, nobody will care..." - She-Ra ( "My Friend, My Enemy")

Erin Morgenstorn's highly praised debut novel The Night Circus has everything that a great page-turner requires: it's intensely imaginative, funny and dark, lushly written and deftly told. Plus, it's a love story set against a 19th century English circus—what else do you need? Here's more from Erin:
Jennifer Haupt: How did this story come first come to you?
Erin Morgenstern: The story came as a location created out of desperation. I was working on a different story altogether, one that was becoming progressively more and more boring because nothing was happening. I needed something exciting to happen and I couldn't figure out how to do it with the locations I had so I sent the characters to the circus. That circus was immediately much more interesting and eventually I abandoned that other story and its characters entirely and focused on the circus instead. What eventually became The Night Circus started from exploring that spontaneously-created location, figuring out who created it and who performed in it and what its story was.

Different types of termites require different types of termite control services, and Hulett provides all of the most effective and environmentally responsible termite treatments!
Drywood termites require treatments such as Hulett's structural (tent) fumigation or Hulett's No Tent Termite Control. Both services are extremely effective, and Hulett can help you decide which one works best for you during your free termite inspection.
Tent fumigation requires the highest degree of skill and that is why very few companies offer this service. Hulett is a member of Dow AgroSciences "Commitment to Excellence" program. This program is a certification of quality and excellence. Companies that have this certification have a proven track record of high quality services and meticulous standards. Hulett has been a member of the "Commitment to Excellence" program since its beginning.
Another option, Hulett's No Tent Termite Treatment, does not require you to leave your home. There is no need to remove plants or flowers, no removal of uncanned foods, no removal of cosmetics or medications, no risk of landscaping or roof damage, no disconnecting of satellites or antennas, and no special shrub or tree trimming! All of these things are part of a tent fumigation.
With Hulett's No Tent Control, a residual material is used at key entry points to help keep termites from coming back. It is the use of such pioneering techniques that keeps Hulett out in front of the competition.
Subterranean termites are eliminated in ways such as Hulett's Liquid Defense treatment or by Termite Baiting Systems.
Hulett's Liquid Defense treatment creates an invisible liquid barrier around your home. It manages termite colonies up to six times faster than baiting systems and has virtually no odor.
Baiting systems provide a food source for termites and then use an insect growth regulator to eliminate the colony.

===The Dreaded Monthly Shop===
It was the end of November. It was also a Sunday. Our friend Linzi found herself off work and desperate to avoid doing housework so asked if she could come shopping with me and my partner Allan. We gladly agreed. We also decided while shopping that since Linzi was staying for tea afterwards, we would pick up some treats. This lead to taking a rather long look at the hot chocolate section in out local Asda trying to decide what flavours we wanted for afterwards. All of a sudden Allan and I both looked up at a tub on the shelf somewhere between the hot chocolate and tea and got quite excited. This happens far too often. I think we inhabit the same brain space. What had gotten us so excited? A tub of Drink Me Chai Latte.
===Drink Who?===
"Drink Me" started off with a woman called Amanda Hamilton selling Chai in the streets of London about 6 years ago. She started off with the Spiced Chai Latte that I'm reviewing and built up to have 6 additional flavours: Green Tea, Vanilla, Chocolate, Peppermint, Mango and a fair-trade version of the Spiced Chai Latte. Not only do they make these flavours for you to take home (supplied by most big supermarkets but not always the same flavours from each one), they do supply to café's too, the biggest chain stocking them at the moment being Caffe Nero. They have a fantastic little website (www.drinkmechai.co.uk) that will tell you all about the history of the company and even gives you some really delicious sounding recipes for things you can make. The tub itself tells you how to make both your normal hot Chai latte and an Iced Chai Latte but the website has even more ideas! Currently they have an extra Christmassy idea called Santa's Spiced Gingerbread Chai latte. I'm actually drooling looking at the other ideas so it's definitely a good little site to look around. There's also a section for samples which is currently closed down due to a high response but states that it will be opening again soon so might be worth keeping an eye on it!
They also like to hear from customers so they have included a number of ways to contact them on the site, and the address on the tub.

===Drink What?===
Chai latte is basically a milky tea based drink. It's pronounced as one syllable, starting with a "Ch" sound and ended with an "eye" sound. Chai tea tends to have tea, cinnamon and ginger in it. Other places throw some nutmeg and various other spices into the mix. It's generally quite a sweet and flavourful drink that people will either love or hate. Its rich, creamy, spicy flavours and scents really make me think of Christmas so it's a very comforting drink for me. The company themselves say it's like Christmas in a cup! The scent alone is lovely and you can smell it as soon as you pop the lid off the tub.
My first Chai Latte experience was when I visited my friend Jess in Atlanta. She took me to a lovely little hippie restaurant and ordered a Chai latte to go with dinner. My first impressions were that it was too sweet with a very odd flavour. I wasn't certain I liked it. Upon trying more from Starbucks the flavour really grew on me to the point where I ended up falling in love with the stuff. Allan is also incredibly partial to a nice cup of Chai but it was, until now, impossible to make at home as the teabags you can get just don't taste as good.
===Drink How?===
£2 will get you a tub that holds 250g of Chai Latte Mix which is basically a very light brown powder that you mix with hot water or milk, similar to hot chocolate. £12 will get you a much larger tub but the small ones work out slightly better value for some reason. The tub is a creamy colour with a rich, almost blood red lid and highlights. Upon pulling the lid off (which is easy) you'll see that the tub is also sealed with a foil lid with a pull tab on it. This is really easy to pull off and doesn't leave any messy sticky out foil cut offs. It also keeps the contents fresh till you want to open the tub. The foil part obviously can't be resealed but the pull off lid can.
The instructions on the tub tell you to pop three teaspoons in a mug and then add hot water then stir well. It also states to pop half hot milk and half hot water in the mug for a creamier drink. Following those instructions is easy enough. With three teaspoons I find that the Chai flavour isn't quite as strong as I would like, so I generally add another teaspoon in to get a really nice strong flavour. As for the creamy side of things, I actually prefer to use just hot milk to mix this with. That's obviously a lot more fatty than just using water but it gives a fantastically creamy and comforting drink.
===Whisked to a frenzy===
I've noticed that if you just stir this with a teaspoon it looks like there's a bit of residue on the top of the drink. While it's fine to drink I prefer it to look a bit nicer. I've found out that my whisk fits nicely into my tea cup though and a couple of spins of that not only froths it up a little more, but mixes the powder much better, dissolving it fully. If you let your cup sit a while when you are drinking it, you may sometimes find a little residue settling in the bottom. I tend to drink it fairly quickly so it's not much of an issue for me.
===A cup or four===
Having swiftly fallen in love with the cinnamon flavour of this Chai latte, Allan and I have been pretty much drinking it non stop. We have noticed that it runs down very quickly: there's only about six cups worth in each tub. We both put a teaspoon extra in so if you stick to the guidelines you'll get about eight cups. Still not that many, especially for £2. I guess though it depends on how you want to drink it. As it's 99% caffeine free I've been replacing it for the tea that I usually drink. Caffeine and I don't really see eye to eye at the best of times. I feel a bit hung over if I have more than a couple of cups of tea. Coffee kills me. Chai is a nice tasting and hot alternative.
Despite its lack of caffeine there are other slight drawbacks. There are 93 calories per 20g of this stuff. If your tub lasts you six cups then you're having 41g per cup meaning roughly 190 calories per cup which is more than some chocolate bars. That's probably down to the top two ingredients being sugar and skimmed milk powder. A normal cup of tea with milk is around 14 calories without sugar adding 17 calories for each teaspoon of sugar you want to add. Basically, this stuff is much more fattening than your average cup of tea.
===Who can have it===
Drink me Chai is both gluten free and suitable for vegetarians. Vegans can't go near it as it's got milk powder in it. It is approved by the vegetarian society to back up its claims too. The only issue I have with the tub is that it doesn't go into detail about the spices it uses which may cause issues if you have allergies to certain things. I can't find an exact list on their website either. For those interested I'll list the ingredients here, if you're not interested please just skip!
Sugar, skimmed milk powder, vegetable fat, whey powder, black tea extract (2%), colouring (caramel), caseinate, thickener (cellulose gum), spices, natural flavouring, stabiliser (E451).
Personally I'd like a bit more information on what spices and natural flavourings they use as I know a few people with awkward allergies and this could cause a little doubt.
===The Verdict===
I really love this stuff. It has a strong cinnamon flavour which I love and the creaminess just makes it a total comfort drink. The flavour is something that some will love and some will hate so you might want to get some free samples from the website before you decide to buy a whole tub. For me, however, this is a sure thing. I have a tub of it in my drawer at work and my cupboard at home, as does Allan. I may have to calm down on it after realising the high calorie count. I would happily give this product five stars if it had a clearer ingredients list but I will have to knock one off for that as it could cause issues in being certain that some people can drink it. For most people, though, I'd definitely recommend a nice hot cup of Chai. We'll probably be having a cup of it on Christmas morning while we open our presents.

1. MULTIPLICITY of laws, being a multiplicity of snares for the people, causes corruption of government.
2. Paucity of laws requires arbitrary power in courts, or judicatorys.
3. Arbitrary power (in reference to laws) is of three kinds. (1) In making, altering, abrogating, or interpreting of laws, which belong to the soverain power. (2) In applying laws to cases which are never any one like another. (3) In reconciling the laws among themselves.
4. There is no difficulty at all in judging of any case whatsoever according to natural equity.
5. Arbitrary power makes any man a competent judg for his knowledge; but leaving him to his own interest, which oftentimes is contrary to justice, makes him also an incompetent judg, in regard that he may be partial.
6. A partiality is the cause why laws pretend to abhor arbitrary power; nevertheless, seeing that not one case is altogether like another, there must in every judicatory be som arbitrary power.
7. Paucity of laws causes arbitrary power in applying them; and multiplicity of laws causes arbitrary power in reconciling and applying them too.
8. Arbitrary power where it can do no wrong, dos the greatest right; because no law can ever be so fram'd, but that without arbitrary power it may do wrong.
9. Arbitrary power, going upon the interest of one or of a few, makes not a just judicatory.
10. Arbitrary power, going upon the interest of the whole people, makes a just judicatory.
11. All judicatorys and laws, which have bin made by arbitrary power, allow of the interpretation of arbitrary power, and acknowlege an appeal from themselves to it.
12. That law which leaves the least arbitrary power to the judg or judicatory, is the most perfect law.
13. Laws that are the fewest, plainest, and briefest, leave the least arbitrary power to the judg or judicatory; and being a light to the people, make the most incorrupt government.
14. Laws that are perplext, intricat, tedious, and voluminous, leave the greatest arbitrary power to the judg or judicatory; and raining snares on the people, make the most corrupt government.
15. Seeing no law can be so perfect as not to leave arbitrary power to the judicatory, that is the best constitution of a judicatory where arbitrary power can do the least hurt, and the worst constitution of a judicatory is where arbitrary power can do the most ill.
16. Arbitrary power in one judg dos the most, in a few judges dos less, and in a multitude of judges dos the least hurt.
17. The ultimat appeal from all inferior judicatorys is to som soverain judg or judicatory.
18. The ultimat result in every government (as in absolute monarchy, the monarch; in aristocracy, or aristocratical monarchy, the peers; in democracy, the popular assembly) is a soverain judg or judicatory that is arbitrary.
19. Arbitrary power in judicatorys is not such as makes no use of the law, but such by which there is a right use to be made of the laws.
20. That judicatory where the judg or judges are not obnoxious to partiality or privat interest, cannot make a wrong use of power.
21. That judicatory that cannot make a wrong use of power, must make a right use of law.
22. Every judicatory consists of a judg or som judges without a jury, or of a jury on the bench without any other judg or judges, or of a judg or judges on the bench with a jury at the bar.
FORM of government (as to the judicial part) being thus completed, is sum'd up in the three following aphorisms.
23. Absolute monarchy (for the judicial part of the form) admits not of any jury, but is of som such kind as a cadee or judg in a city, or as we say in a hundred, with an appeal to a cadaliskar or a judg in a province, from whom also there lys an appeal to the muphti, who is at the devotion of the grand signior or of the monarch.
Chap. X.24. Aristocracy or aristocratrical monarchy (for the judicial part of the form) may admit of a jury, so it be at the bar only, and consists of som such kind as delegats or ordinary judges, with an appeal to a house of peers; or som such court, as the parlament at Paris, which was at the institution in the reign of Hugh Capet, a parlament of soverain princes.
25. Democracy (for the judicial part of the form) is of som such kind as a jury on the bench in every tribe, consisting of thirty persons or more annually eligible in one third part by the people of that tribe, with an appeal from thence to a judicatory residing in the capital city of the like constitution, annually eligible in one third part out of the senat or the popular assembly, or out of both; from which also there lys an appeal to the people, that is to the popular assembly.

An amazing book to read to!! A full package with love, drama, passion, romance. This book is full of all emotions a person can feel. A cricket and srk lovers would really enjoy it. I never expected any guy to love a gal so much! people who know how to love some one will surely be able to relate to it! Can't wait for your next book! write soon!
great job Ashish!
it started off quiet well but as the story progresses u'll find monotonity. Then u'll find that its only about "Love" and cricket and SRK was missing. Writer is good he has a gud sense of humour but its not a great story. Writer is obsessed with himself.

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired) -- 07/16/13 -- Canada Carbon Inc. (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE: CCB) is pleased to announce it has contracted Geotech Ltd. ("Geotech") of Aurora, Ontario to complete a helicopter airborne Versatile Time Domain Electromagnetic (VTEM Plus) and Horizontal Magnetic Gradiometer Geophysical Survey on its 100% owned historical Miller Lump/Vein Graphite Mine located 80 kilometres ("km") west of Montreal near Grenville, Quebec. A total of 335.9 line km of geophysical data should be acquired. The airborne survey will be flown at 100 metre line spacing on the property with 50 metre line spacing surrounding the 2.3 km2 of the Miller Mine pit area. The equipment and crew have begun mobilizing to the historic Miller Graphite mine project on July 13th, 2013. The data acquisition phase of the project will take place the following week. A Preliminary Map will be available for examination within 48 hours of the data acquisition. All maps, data and report are expected within six (6) weeks of the completion of the data acquisition.
R. Bruce Duncan, Interim CEO & Director of Canada Carbon stated, "We are extremely pleased to be working with Geotech Ltd. a leader in the airborne geophysical surveying field. These state of the art VTEM airborne surveys will be key in establishing high priority drill targets and expanding our base of knowledge on the historic Miller lump/vein graphite mine." Mr. Duncan further states, "Shallow graphite rich bodies at and near surface are extremely conductive and the depth, location, and orientation can be identified using VTEM surveying technology. We anticipate the assay results from our recently completed sampling program and initial graphite purity test shortly."
Previous EM surveys utilizing the IMAGEM ground survey done on the property, generated 17 anomalies. The VTEM plus System is excellent for locating discrete conductive anomalies as well as mapping lateral and vertical variations in resistivity. The system offers penetration through conductive covers, spotting of drill targets from the results, excellent resistivity discrimination and detection of weak anomalies.
Upon completion of the airborne survey Geotech will generate anomaly picking maps, resistivity depth sections, EM Plate Modeling using EMIT Maxwell and 3D resistivity depth voxels on a detailed grid. Those products will facilitate a detailed interpretation of the results of the survey.

About Miller Graphite Mine
The Miller Graphite Mine, located in Grenville Township in Quebec is a past graphite and mica producer with unknown graphite reserves remaining. This mine was worked around 1845 and was probably the first graphite operation in Canada. The quantity of produced graphite is unknown but it is reported that 25 rail cars of lump graphite were shipped from this deposit in the year 1900 and sent to the Globe Refining Company of Jersey City, N.J. This yielded thirty-two tons of clean crucible graphite. The Morgan Crucible Company of London and also J.H. Gauthier and Company, Jersey City, used some of this graphite in their crucibles and pronounced it equal to the best graphite known to come from Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). The property covers 15.3 km2 of land and is located 80 km west of Montreal. A main road, located approximately 800 metres from the deposit, is connected by a gravel road to the deposit allowing very easy access. A power line also crosses the property 500 metres south of the deposit. There is no certainty that further exploration will result in the development of similar deposits.

Conference Call: Rhetoric in Europe From the attached CFP: "Since antiquity, rhetoric has reigned as one of the great European traditions in education. Currently, as the importance of media of all kind is growing in daily communication, rhetoric is prevailing as an educational topic. The importance of intercultural communication is growing internationally as well as domestically, economically, and politically. Often political changes (from war, refugees, work migration, economical pressure, etc.) impact the crisis that the education system aggravates, (especially in the primary and secondary area), and this not since PISA. The worlds of work, along with public and everyday life, are altered since political (1989/1990), cultural (1968 and again 1989/90), and economical changes are not initiated, but accelerated by the globalization. Even this raw draft shows that schools, universities and adult education have important tasks and responsibilities in the formation of qualified teachers, university professors, and adult educators as well as in the research that is the basis for these formations. Because communication is the central category of the intercultural, medial, interpersonal problem, rhetoric is needed urgently in the mediation of "communication competence", since media rhetoric, economical rhetoric, intercultural rhetoric, political rhetoric, and forensic rhetoric can advance the sectoral rhetorics at will."

Editorial for Spring 2010 By Andy King During the past three months manuscripts from England, Wales, Germany, and China have been submitted to the KB Journal. One reviewer experiencing vertigo and world weariness from the vast influx asked if Burke, that former disciple of the regionalist Van Wyck Brooks, would have approved this journal "going international." I answered that he would have enjoyed it immensely. In the last decades of his life, Burke loved his growing fame. Had his work been eagerly read by giant sloth worms on Neptune or even horribly misconstrued by methane-breathing fire birds on the sun-blistered surface of Mercury, Burke would have been delighted. He would have been eager to engage their counter-statements. Read more about Editorial for Spring 2010Nathaniel Rivers's blog2384 reads

Social Identity as Grammar and Rhetoric of Motives: Citizen Housewives and Rachel Carson's Silent Spring Tara Lynne Clapp, Iowa State UniversityAbstract Literature is not only equipment for living, but equipment for social organization. In this paper, I propose the construct of a 'social identity' to name a grammatical interpretation of the world that is used rhetorically in social organization, identification and division. The worldview of the 'citizen' in Rachel Carson's Silent Spring is an identity for organizing against contamination, came to life through the media, and has been activated in the environmental justice movement. First published in 1962, Silent Spring was an attack on the large scale use of pesticides and herbicides without regard for ecological consequences. The war on insects is a war against our own bodies. Through an innovative ecological application of the pastoral, Silent Spring created ambiguity in the boundary between the ecological scene and the (scene)-agent of the housewife. This ambiguity of substance provides resources for identification between the ecological scene and our ecologically scenic selves. The social identity of Silent Spring was taken up almost immediately in the immediate fight against DDT. Since then, the basic grammar of Silent Spring has been taken up in several characteristic types of environmental activism. I argue that a Citizen Housewife social identity – innovative in its ecological identification – can be traced from Silent Spring through to its uses in local environmental justice organizing.

of things transcendent . . . not in his discussion of "things" (cf his discussion of "positivist" names / acts of positivist naming in Rhetoric), much like heidegger, (though heidegger may take the "nature" of a thing further), burke finds in many things both a positivist reading and a "transcendent" reading. even so, he writes: Read more about of things transcendent . . . notjohn ennis's blog1357 reads
first transcendent ramble, perhaps in trying to figure how the theme of the upcoming burke conference at villanova plays out--the theme of transcendence as burke wielded the de-termination (stole that from burke's rhetoric)--i am thinking that burke's is a wordplay that appropriates the evocative in order to show that, really, nothing could be more natural. it would appear that transcendence in this burkean application / appropriation is as ubiquitous/ universal as rhetoric or persuasion or identification. to be alive is to be "rhetorically" adapted to the life forces and discourses everywhere around and within.

2007 Updates Berlin So, building now towards the Spring 2007, Haupseminar Course at the JFK, Berlin...introducing some KB principles early on as they apply to the beginnings of US media (radio, tv and film): George Clooney's "Good Night and Good Luck" (2005) takes its significant and timely place in a Hollywood genre lineage that, since the 1970s, has assumed to represent the development of U.S. television. The film's critical and commercial success - as topped by 2006 Oscar recognitions - confirm how relevant these issues remain for present-day audiences. This course places "Good Night and Good Luck" in a deep historical context by focusing critically on former Hollywood films that, from the 1970s to the 1990s, also assumed to represent the working practices of U.S. broadcast news, cable news media and Reality TV. The spine of the course will therefore explore how ten corporate intertextualities - from Network (20th Century Fox, 1976) to The Insider (Touchstone, 1999) - reflected public disquiet about media ownership, gender representation, corporate mergers, free speech, new technologies, war coverage, and even the influential powers of market journalism itself. The rhetorics of such texts are considerd in a uniquely Burkian perspective. In addition, our study will be enriched by contextual histories, which, since the 1920s, consider relevant legal, institutional and political interventions in the early development of the U.S. public media. This will lead to a Case Study analysis of cable news coverage post 9/11. The course is an update of a book publication by the Course Leader which itself became the focus of intense public and on-air debate during 2005 General Elections in Eastern Europe.

5 millioneth attempt at blogging So, this is kind of cool. You join the KB site and get a blog space. Not bad. Anyway, I wrote the review of the Killingsworth article and it was posted (hooray me!). I'm wondering if anyone will read this blogeration attempt. Scene: internet/faculty breakroom at Miami University. Agent: Moi. Act: Yet another attempt to make a blog. Agency: I act through the interface, I guess. I'm not postive about this one. Maybe an imminent scholar will help me out. How do I act? I act by putting words into a space that I both hope many will view and enjoy and that no one will view and thus will have no evidence by which to incriminate me.

Connecting Burke with notebooks and articles Some more thoughts that I hope will bring me a step closer to this paper ... I should have my notes with me as I write this. I don't--they're at home. But perhaps this is better. Writing without them may prompt a thought I didn't have as I was writing them. When we compare Pasteur's laboratory notebooks with his published work, I believe the pattern is clear. It's not original--Gerald Geison makes the point firmly--but its application to rhetoric, and specifically to Burke's view of science and rhetoric, should be. I don't know yet whether I should limit myself to Pasteur. Research on Lavoisier leads to a similar conclusion, although I'm not sure Lavoisier had quite the rhetorical talents Pasteur did. In any case, it's absolutely clear that when we read a journal article, we're not getting an unbiased description of "the real world out there"; what we see is filtered through the scientist's rhetorical choices.

Public perception and the rhetoric of science What follows is some casual writing intended to get my thoughts going, in the hopes that something here will lead to a paper. Scientists make certain rhetorical choices as they write about science. How do these choices influence the way the general public views science and scientists? By saying they make rhetorical choices, I am implying that their writing is at least partly persuasive, not purely informative. Scientific journals contain writing that is self-consciously "antirhetorical"--that is, it avoids rhetorical devices that could lead to an appearance of bias.

Re-entering the Parlor: Kenneth Burke as Pointillist I originally wrote this for the Kenneth Burke mailing list. I put it here so I'll have a convenient place for storing my writing on KB. One of the classrooms where I teach has a lovely bookcase. It is lovely not for its construction--I've seen better-made bookcases at Wal-Mart--but for its contents. Several rhetoric books grace these shelves, including A Rhetoric of Motives. Read more about Re-entering the Parlor: Kenneth Burke as PointillistTom Wright's blog1800 reads
Burke, Pasteur, and the rhetoric of science I've been reading a book called The Private Science of Louis Pasteur, written by Gerald Geison, a Princeton history professor. In spite of my sister's recommendation, I didn't actually intend to read it when I first picked it up. But then I saw one of the section titles: "Laboratory Notebooks, Scientific Fraud, and the Rhetorical Construction of Scientific Knowledge." Geison uses Mikhail Bakhtin's ideas on "inner speech" to shed light on scientific disclosure. Read more about Burke, Pasteur, and the rhetoric of scienceTom Wright's blog1215 reads
Drama of a Technological Society Let me start with a few general comments on this essay and maybe get into more detail in a later post. Mike Hubler's piece on the intersection between Jacques Ellul and KB on technology is brilliant. It rewards a careful reading. I highly recommend it. One thing Hubler emphasizes that stood out for me is the ambiguity inherent in the agent-agency "inversion" he speaks of, the way in which technology, construed as "obviously" an agency in our gadget-overloaded world, is, it seems, in the saddle and riding humankind at an incredible gallop; and yet, at the same time, the fluidity of the pentadic terms and concepts can just as easily render "technique" as agent in a straight agent-agency correspondence, with the symbol-using/misusing animal as the tool of his or her machanized creations. Hubler makes the ambiguity clear, with supportive references to passages in Burke. In fact, he employs Burke's own descriptions to nicely justify that kind of agent-agency construction, with the machine as autonomous slave-driver and pentadically named as such. His central use of Burke's dramatism as a way of more explicity rhetoricizing Ellul's half-century-old critique of our modern infatuation with the machine is thus appropriately nuanced and pellucidly parsed.

Posted by Jesse Marco, a Landlord & Tenant client,
In dealing with Chris Fierro, he perfected the art of honesty and kindness in helping me resolved an issue I had as a tenant. Chris picks up his phone everytime I called his office. He answers his email and follows up accordingly. These actions calms down a anxious client.
Never once he made an empty promise nor gave advice that was phony. He was realistic and very assuring in his actions.
After all the great job he has done in helping me recover the loss and inconveniences with my landlord-tenant issue, he went above and beyond his call as an attorney. He waived the fees associated with the services he provided.
For me Chris is a more than a "nice" attorney. He is a model to others in making a difference in his client's life. He is worth emulating.
Posted by Limon & Guadalupe, a Landlord & Tenant client,
Chris Fierro was kind, professional, supportive attorney and provided the best representation for us. He represented us in Santa Rosa and exhibited excellent representation in our case. We recommend him without hesitation.

For a Garand, it is important the pressure level be within certain limits as the bullet passes the gas port. Too low a pressure and the gun doesn't work; too high and the operating rod bends. What is deceptive is the bullet can be going at pretty much the 'correct' velocity and the pressure range not be right.
If you have a reputable loading manual, you should not have any problems in the regard. I'm of the school that more loading manuals are better.
same here on manuals.. i have all the major ones.. lee, hornady, lyman, speer, sierra, nosler, plus a good stack of small publications with data.. mostly some imr stuff and some shooter magazines with a center data section.
I mainly load in imr 4064, so I read up in all the manuals before selecting a starting charge level.. imr 4064 has data available in the garand section of the manuals that list it.. though it is a hair lower than the 30-06sprngfld guessing medium ... tis interesting to look at many of the special loadings you see as well.. like the 308 svc rifle load data m14 etc..

RCBS® Rock Chucker™ Supreme Master Reloading Kit
The RCBS Rock Chucker Supreme Master Reloading Kit contains all the gear you need to start loading like a pro! Includes the single-stage Supreme Press, 5-0-5 scale, Uniflow powder measure, Speer reloading manual, hand priming tool, hex key set, case loading block, case lube kit, powder funnel, and deburring tool.
Manufacturer model #: 09357.
Manufacturer model #: 09357.
Rated 4.8 out of 5 by 8
Rated 5 out of 5 by AmericanVet Solid basics
AWESOME KIT! This kit is perfect for both beginners and experienced reloaders. I would only advise two things to consider.
1) Don't use the built-in primer "thingy" unless you practice finesse. Many a good man (and dummies like me) can over-seat your primers into the case with dents. The hand priming tool let's you "feel" the primer seat perfectly.
2) Only the RCBS shell holder will fit your hand priming tool. But, ANY shell holder will slide into the press just fine.
Hornady, Lee, Lyman, yada, yada, are all good. Don't compare them to death. RCBS just happens to be what I ended up with. NO REGRETS. EASY & RELIABLE USE.
December 20, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by JonnyP Great, but be prepared to spend
This is a great kit for a beginner, very well made, quality components, feeling of durability.
The bad: the instructions for setting up are not great, you will need to go out to youtube to really get a feel for this.
Not included in this kit, but essential:
1. Case trimmer (essential)
2. Calipers (essential)
3. Primer pocket cleaner (optional)
Additionally, if you are reloading any military brass (5.56, 7.62 etc) you will need to get a primer swager to address the crimped primers in military grade brass.
Other than that, very good.

Rated 4 out of 5 by RobfromKansas Incomplete
Glad I was able to find this online, however, upon unpacking, I discovered the press was missing the spent primer collection tray. I contacted RCBS direct, one week ago, and have not heard back from them. I'm sure they will take carte of it though.

Ask your questions. Share your answers.
Yes you can. It's a standard press for any standard die set. (just check the threads if not sure)I have some Lee and Hornady dies (for example) that work fine. Most are "standard" fit.
SIDE NOTE: Nothing to do with the press: I have discovered, first-hand, that a Lee shell holder does not fit my RCBS hand priming tool because of a bevel. I simply have to spend an extra $7 if I want to buy a Lee die and still use the hand tool. (NOT an issue if you use the built-in primer seater on the press itself)
Yes, it will take both standard RCBS size dies.A:
Yes, all dies with the standard 7/8x14 thread pattern will work.This is the most common die threading!
This particular kit is for Handgun or Rifle cartridges. (Bullet-type ammo only)Shotguns use a different kind of components and process.
You want to search using the term "SHOTSHELL PRESS" or "Shotshell reloader". Just as fun and rewarding as making cartridges! Check the next aisle in the reloading section of Bass Pro.
Hope this launches a fun experience!
You cannot load shotgun shells on a Rock Chucker.You will need a Shotgun press for that. Check out the Lee Shotgun reloaders and the MECs.
No. Just throw the rock. Your arm is good enough. :)A:
RCBS Primer assemblies will work with this pressAnswers
The RCBS Master Reloader will not handle a 50 caliber BMG or larger. Anything smaller should be fine.The hard part is finding the die and components.
Yes, you will need to buy a shell holder and dies for your caliber which are extra.A:
Yes, the 204 RUGER dies will work with this press...Remember to also get the proper shell holder #10 to go with the dies!A:
Yes anything .17 to short of .50 bmg. .50 bmg takes special presses unless you want to go through a lot of trouble.A:
My family has been using RCBS equipment for years. The Rockchucker will reload any (we have from .243 up to .358STA wildcat) but you must have the correct dies for it. RCBS offers entry and higher level dies and we have used both and had no issues. It is wise to pick up their reloading manual so you know the loads to start with.Details:
also will work for 12ga shot gunAnswers
This RCBS kit will allow you to reload any normal handgun or rifle cartridge, including Dirty Harry's baby.You will need a different set-up and press for "shotshell reloading" like a 12 gauge shotgun. It's a different process altogether.
44 mag yes any standard center fire pistol or rifle round w/o being .50 bmg yes. shotguns take their own type of press. The rockchucker has a progressive press attachment so it may have a progressive shotgun press attachment but they are gauge specific.A:
It can be used for reloading almost any pistol calibre including the .44 mag. You will need a shotshell reloading kit for loading shotgun shells. This particular kit is for rifle and pistol cartridges. I have used the RCBS Rockchucker Kit for many years and have loaded thousands of rounds. It is an excellent product!Details:
I want to buy the rock chucker press for reloading but can't seem to find primersanyone have any suggestions
I have an RCBS set-up and love it. Don't let the "component dry spell" discourage you from a fun hobby. I hate the hunt for handgun powders, primers, bullets, etc. It is a temporary problem in may areas of our country.Just keep an eye out and call your local shops frequently.
Now if you're willing to pay a salty HAZMAT shipping fee, you can usually find what you need online. anywhere. Anytime. But I'm too cheap to give in.
Both 9mm and .380 use small pistol primers. Bass sells several different manufacturers primers. Personally, I use all CCI, but other manufacturers are just as good. Really depends on what you want and what's available locally to you !A:
I would recommend checking with one of the Bass Pro Shops Retail Stores or with RCBS. I hope this helps. ThanksStore Locations: www.basspro.com/stores.
Any normal rifle cartridge smaller than a 50 BMG will load in the rock chucker.A:
You can just squeeze a 50 cal, which I think is the upper limit.A:
way longer than most coventional cartridges are, though if you want to load 50 bmg i would get a 50 bmg pressA:
It will handle any loads I have ever heard of.Answers
Yes. Just get the dies and components.I would obviously get a reloading caliper & case trimmer if you're gonna spend the money to start rifle reloading.
And something to clean your brass, and one of those neat reloading thingies. And some other cool gadgets and gizmos. and something to put it on and in. and heck, maybe another gun to go with all that ammo....
Yes, just buy the relevant shell holder and dies.A:
Yes we have used it for . 300 Win Mags with no problems.A:
yes, with the appropiate die set.A:
Yes, I have used this same one for years. Has plenty of leverage and press opening for this and all the other belted mag cases.1 of 1

Found December 20, 2012 on
Philadelphia Eagles running back LeSean McCoy is defending his only NFL coach he's ever had, Andy Reid, who has taken most the blame for the Eagles disappointing season.
"If you sat here and tried to name 5 to 8 coaches that's better than coach Reid, I would like to hear it," McCoy said. "Coach Reid's a good coach. He gets blamed for everything. Sometimes you break down the film, break down the plays and the mistakes, how do you fault the coach for that?"
Reid has an all-time win-loss record of 130-91, and an all-time playoff record of 10-9 in 14 seasons with the Eagles.
McCoy said he is "behind coach Reid 110 percent."
"I guess people have their own opinions, their minds are made up. The thing about the team is, we know how good a coach he really is," McCoy said. "Whatever happens happens, but I'm behind coach Reid 110 percent."
McCoy added: "It's the players he's brought here together to play, they weren't a good enough group ... I don't think he should get blamed for the turnovers they caused or the blown (coverages)."
Reid is likely to be coaching his final two games as the head coach of the Eagles this Sunday at home against Washington, and then on the road against the New York Giants the following week.

Paul McCartney was famously reluctant to become the Beatles' bass player when given the opportunity in 1961. He is quoted as saying "Nobody wants to play bass, or nobody did in those days". Bass players were possibly perceived as backing musicians, a role that the talented and good-looking "Macca" was naturally reluctant to adopt. Sir Paul did much to change the perception of the bass as a lesser instrument, and such bass playing lead singers such as Phil Lynott, Geddy Lee and Sting have continued to bring the bass to the forefront.
