Ans.01. To a muslim, their Quran is always the perfect final revelation from God and yours is a corrupted, human inspired pierce of theological work.
02. You will never be able to convince him that it is plagiarism. Why bother? Just like you cannot convince him that his religion is barbaric because of it being poorly written as opposed to an era in which muslims are misbehaving.
01. You have spoken the Truth my dear fellow!! Because there is Only One Quran that existed in the world from the time it was revealed to our prophet . And there are Hundreds of Biblical version in existence, each with difference in content and interpretation.
Any unbiased person when seeing the two documents would come to the same conclusion as Muslims do!!
02. How it can be plagiarism, when there is not a Single verse in Quran that is copied from Bible verbatim?
When I show you cases in which Jesus borrowed verses from earlier books, you say He had a right to it because he was a Jew!!
And by the way, you do not know what is Barbarism, do you?
Define what is Barbarism and trace history of Europe and tell me the date from which they Turned away from Barbarism and moved towards Humanism!!

Bernanke is expected to stick with low-rate stance
by The Associated Press Published: February 7, 2012
Tags: Ben Bernanke, Economy, Fed, Federal Reserve System, IHS Global Insight, interest rates
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke has called the economy "frustratingly slow." On Tuesday, Congress will find out whether he still thinks so, even after Friday's news that hiring surged in January and unemployment reached a three-year low. Don't expect a radical new outlook on the economy. When Bernanke testifies to the Senate Budget Committee, economists [...]

CoverGirl, owned by Proctor and Gamble, continue animal testing on rats, mice, guinea pigs, rabbits, and other animals, forcing them to swallow or inhale massive quantities of a test substance or endure the pain of having caustic chemicals applied to their sensitive eyes and skin––even though the results of animal tests are often unreliable or not applicable to humans. Even if a product has blinded an animal, it can still be marketed to you.
Although modern alternative test methods exist, huge multiproduct manufacturers, continue to poison and harm animals in tests that aren't even required by law.

"The Delta Experience..*****"
by jimmy.g on August 10, 2013
Delta has come a long way in customer service....
baggage handling etc. and gate departures. Their on time performance seems better also...
"Great Staff"
by Penceaar on May 16, 2013
The staff was professional and the pilots were awesome. Smooth and safe flight considering it was my two year old grandson's first.
thank you Delta!!!!
"Terrible expierence"
by dthomas26 on April 22, 2013
We went on our honeymoon to Key West we left
March 11,2013. We arrived at the Airport early enough 1 1/2 hours early however once we went to check in we were told that we could not take the carry on because Key West had strict guidelines on carry on luggage. Now keep in mind I checked on line what we could take and it said one check in, one personal item ( IE.. Purse,Laptop) and one carry on luggage. So thats exactly what we had so I told the lady this and she didnt seem to care and when I asked what we could do she said " I would put your stuff in the carry on in your luggage you are checking. I said what do we do with the carry on luggage then she said " dont know maybe take it back to your car" now that ment we had to get a shuttle back to our car and back and not miss out flight. The whole entire expierence was a nightmare.
So long story we got the luggage back to the car, our luggage was a pound over each they wanted to charge and addtional $95.00 but we took stuff out and carried it.
We got to Atlanta airport where people were boarding to our next Delta flight and wow they had carry on luggage the same size as we were told in Dayton we could not take because Key West has very strict policy on carry ons????? So I asked people were they came from and to my surprise they flew from Dayton as well but they were allowed.
Hmmmmm I went to the desk and they said im not sure why you were told that we will put things under the plane if necessary.
So I called and the lady on the phone said there is no such policy and apologized and offered to pay for our luggage back well that would be great but we were flying US Air back due to the time restrictions coming back on March 18th. So she gave us two $100.00 vouchers to be used in a year.
Nice right but we want to return to Key West for our one year anniversory and guess what Delta is the highest of all flights to Key West so we would end up paying even more and using the vouchers so they really dont do us any good. We cant transfer them so its really an empty gesture.
Dont fly Delta... PS ... my luggage also looked as if it had been chewed by a large animal while it was in flight....
"THEY LOST MY ENTIRE PLANE'S LUGGAGE! on top of a 4 hour delay"
by Caro55330 on March 19, 2013
I posted this on twitter, Facebook, and G+ and I plan to try to avoid Delta from now on. I know delays happen, I took the extra 12 hours I spent in the airport like a champ but this whole baggage thing set me off. How do you loose an entire planes luggage to the point where you don't even know where their luggage is? This was on top of a 4 hour delay that made us land at 2 am as well, so we wait for our luggage for about 45 minutes and then they tell us there is a problem, then it is another 20 minutes before they figure it all out and send us all home after getting our addresses. I felt bad for the people working Delta customer service tonight in Minneapolis because it wasn't their fault. Argh...sorry so angry, needed to vent. I am so glad my future flights are through American I have never had a problem with them.
I am not saying this is typical of Delta, I've flown with them before but they behaved poorly and I just read the pamphlet they gave us and they won't even be refunding the fee I paid for the luggage! Clearly not a company that cares about its customers.
"I don't care for O'Hare"
by Trude on March 8, 2013
The people who work there are not user friendly, the police get angry if you ask directions. The time between flights is hardly enough to get you to the next gate on time. The last time I flew into Chicago, 3 of the drive carts had not been charged so I hoofed it and I don't mind but I barely had time to go to the bathroom and catch the flight to my destination.
"If you can get that direct flight--its an easy trip!"
by GeorgiaMom on February 7, 2013
Two carriers fly direct from ATL to BZE. Delta made it easy and painless. On the return trip, the computers for Delta were down (for a couple days). It took quite awhile to hand write everyone's ticket. But we made it home safe!
"Was a wonderful trip."
by parma on December 22, 2012
I had the most beautiful flight and the personal very kind and helpful. I recomended very highly.
I will take this opportunity again if is possible.
As studente price was very handy and help a lot with my budget.
by lisa19 on December 3, 2012
The flight over was horrible. We had the last row of seats. Both my husband and myself r tall and were cramped the entire flight. Because of being in the last row the seats barely reclined. On top of that the air hostesses were rude and very unfriendly. Once the horrible meal was served and we tried to sleep...the air hostesses talked in the back loudly (continuously) and banged the "cabinets" shut for 30+ minutes. The lights would in the cabin would come on just when u woudl doze off.
The returning flight was thru KLM (DELTA ran) but better. A day flight..food was better and staff a little more friendly. The only prob was we were travelling with a five year old and they separated us all and did not try to accommodate us at all. Thank goodness I was able to make arrangements with another passenger. Both flights were overbooked also ( therefore had no wiggle room for seat assignments). Seems to me that they would use a bigger aircraft when this problem arises..surely they know before time!
"Economy Comfort - Not So Much"
by ExFloridian on November 29, 2012
We paid extra for the Economy Comfort seats.
My daughters seat had no velcro and thus slid all over - making ti unsafe. They moved her away from us in a standard Economy seat (good thing she is 17).
Next, my husbands seat had no velcro either, when he went to use the bathroom his seat started sliding.
I have had bad experiences on Delta before, but due to the price, we gave them another chance. I would rather pay extra!
The check in process from Disney was stressful because of Delta's process. Bye Bye Delta!
"just use someone else"
by bobbinsj on November 16, 2012
ugh I knew better and still allowed Delta to do it to me again!
Had to book a last minute flight from California to Managua Nicaragua (mom fell down and hurt herself big time). Thought I'd be able to get out of here in 5 days, but she's in pretty bad shape. SO....had to rebook (do you know where this is headed?) and asked, given the circumstances:
- if they would wave the $150 change fee. Provided all the info, but then OH NO its international, you have to pay the fee and then later show the airport a Doctor's certificate, etc if you want a refund....and once I agreed, ( Dr's certificate, no problem I can work with that) now its suddenly "sorry its too late, you already paid the change fee you CANNOT get a refund." Wish I had recorded the entire conversation!
- note 1: $150 change fee
- note 2: I feel like I just dealt with slimy used car salesman
- note 3: Had a similar international circumstance 2yrs back with United, & as I started into my explanation they offered to cancel the change fee. Way to go United!
- note 3: I do business in Atlanta, thank GOD both United and Southwest fly to Atlanta
"Shortest Run"
by Slugster on September 26, 2012

@ 2.5 to Seatac. A real time saver compared thru Dallas, Phoenix ect.
"Delta Charges Fee To Sit In Emergency Exit Row"
by divasshadow on September 12, 2012
Delta Airlines charges an "upgrade" fee of $29 to passengers who switch seats to emergency exit row seats.
Passengers on a Delta Airlines flight from Albuquerque to Salt Lake City were stunned to hear a flight attendant sternly scold a passenger for switching his seat to an empty exit row seat after the doors were closed.
The Delta flight attendant asked the passenger if he had paid for the "upgrade" to that row. To which he responded - what do you mean? She informed him that it's an additional $29 fee to have an emergency row exit seat!!
Since when? This was clearly news to all on board.
Passenger then asked what difference does it make since doors we closed at this point. She proceeded to tell him that the plane would not leave the gate unless he returned to his seat or showed proof of purchase for the emergency row seat!!
Airlines often ask passengers in these rows if they are willing to help in case of emergency. It appears that Delta says - by the way that will cost you!!!
"Damaged baggage and disinterested cabin crew"
by jfl9876 on September 3, 2012
We flew from Boston to Bermuda with Delta (this was the first and will be he last time we fly with them !!), at check in we were charged for our baggage although like other reviewers I am sure this was included in our ticket price, but could not continue with check in till we paid. Once on the flight and about to take off the passenger in front of me was clearly using his Blackberry, but when the stewardess came through the cabin to do 'final checks' she never even looked at anyone ! (the passenger did turn it off himself when we started to taxi to the runway). Nearing Bermuda the cabin crew came through the cabin with immigration cards, we are British and the stewardess had no clue as to what card we needed to fill in and gave us one for US nationals returning to the States, I had to call her back and ask for a different one, she 'tutted' and virtually threw it at me! We arrived at Bermuda collected our cases and went to our hotel. When we went to unpack we noticed that on our four cases, 2 of our 4 padlocks were missing and another fell apart when I went to unlock it, one of the zip tags was also missing and on another case the zip was damaged, so we assumed our cases had been opened, (but if this was security reasons there should have been a note or tag on or in the case). Sadly we didn't notice this before we left the airport so couldn't report it to the Delta desk (assuming there is one at Bermuda airport ?). So I have twice done an on-line report to Delta, listing what happened to our cases and so far they haven't even bothered to reply, so therefore I can only assume that this practise of case opening and bad customer service is common place within Delta airlines? As I said at the beginning of my review we will never fly with Delta again !!
"Such lies!!!"
by pjroth on July 9, 2012
When we made our reservation for four to France I asked if the price would go down. I was assured it would not go down, only up. Well, two weeks later it dropped $205 per person. I called Delta to ask for a credit voucher for the difference. They told me they would have to reissue the ticket and charge $500 per person. They told me every airline does that. Another outright lie!!!! American, Southwest, and Jetblue have all issues me credit vouchers recently without charging a change fee. Please do yourself a favor a fly an airline with integrity- not Delta!!!
"OVERBOOKED and bumped for checking in only 56 minutes early"
by rheasmit on July 3, 2012
OVERBOOKED, oversold, bumped, we had to pay $50 apiece extra to get rerouted. We spent 19 hours in three airports ON STANDBY with no assigned seating, scared we would be lost in limbo. At check in in Vegas, we were only 56 minutes early, and therefore 'LATE' and I was angered at the hour we waited for the desk to fix our new tickets. Finally we joked that they were playing a video game back there, and they laughed and said they were using a 25 YEAR OLD COMPUTER SYSTEM. At the boarding gates at each layover, defensive clerks repeatedly asked people to volontarily give up their seats for a $400 voucher as they were OVERBOOKED. Delta loves to fly with NO EMPTY SEATS and lots of ANGRY customers on the ground. Shame on them!
"Horrible Experience"
by bfordlatty on June 22, 2012
For 3 days my connection out of Roanoke, VA to Atlanta for a flight to Lima, Peru was cancelled. Not a cloud in the sky, but when I called Delta I was told it was cancelled due to weather. When I asked the reservationist what could she do to get me to Lima, she said she couldn't help me- flat- "no there is nothing I can do".
I asked to speak to a supervisor who rebooked me on a flight later in the day which was also cancelled. This went on for 3 days until I finally suggested that they get me out of another airport. I drove 2 hrs at 4 am to get to Greensboro, NC to catch my flight 3 days late.
After the first delay, Delta did not notify me in advance about any of the other cancellations so I lugged my luggage to the airport at 4am X3, only to find out the flt was cancelled. No person at the Delta desk at the airport...I had to call the 800 number and wait forever to be connected.
This was simply a terrible experience,filled with inept or uncaring reservationists. I almost missed my Lima flight to Cusco, and I will not ever, ever book with Delta again.
"Business as usual"
by travelinwoman on May 24, 2012
I fly this route all the time. I usually fly US Airways (I live in a hub) with one stop but flew Delta this time. The main thing to remember with this route is that overhead bin space, for some reason, is often tight. Also, connection times, particularly in Phoenix (PHX) are really tight.....like 30 minutes. So choose your seat carefully because if you're stuck in the back of the bus with a tight connection and you're even a few minutes late you might miss your flight. Re: carry-on bags and those overhead bins, I often lag behind on purpose just so I can gate check my carry-on bag when the bins fill up. Attendants are getting better about making sure back-of-the-plane passengers don't fill up the forward bins. That said, if you see someone doing that SPEAK UP or the back bins will remain empty-ish and will be filled by forward-cabin passengers and the forward bins will be overfull and then when we're all deplaning there's a mess. Other than that, I haven't noticed the seats getting any worse than they usually are. Bring food. Always bring food unless you want to pay $7.00 and up (cash only) for a candy bar and baby carrots.
"I will repeat this route with this carrier"
by Wai on May 24, 2012
The flight experience over all was excellent. And I mean everything. The check-in service, the flight, the service, the airports, etc. And that is for both flights taken (roundtrip)
"Excellent 737-8 experience"
I loved this flight. The in-flight entertainment was very good, as-well-as the service. The departing and arriving time was accurate, but the only set back was the check-in service. They need better training.
"Great flight, bad check-in service"
Our day at the MCO Delta check-in area didn't go as well as I would've like. Not enough personnel, resulting in slow and long lines. As far as our flight is concern, it went on with no problems at all. In fact it was fantastic. Fast, no bumps, good service, clean plane, and a plane with a suprising great condition.

Dark matter: Good news, everyone! We've found ... NOTHING AT ALL
Electrical model of the universe
There is an electrical model of the universe that doesn't require dark matter. It assumes that gravity is relatively unimportant in holding the universe together and that the main forces are electrical / electo-magnetic. Hence no need for the missing mass required by the gravity model. The predictions of the electric universe theory seem to be true but it is regarded as very much a fringe science as everyone KNOWS that the universe is held together by gravity. This latest finding throws a little more support towards the electric universe model and away from traditional astrophysics.

Hundreds of engineers believed that the propellent sealing O-Rings on the Challenger space shuttle would withstand a launch in freezing temperatures.
The fact that hundreds of qualified people believe something does not necessarily make it true.

Paying a TV tax makes you happy - BBC
How do they actually catch anyone not paying the license?
I have lived in the UK for 18 years now. In that time I have never had a tv or license and on average receive once a month a letter saying get a tv license or else, you must take immediate action. I now immediately put it in the bin and assume I have complied with their request. In the early days I used to contact them and tell them I had no tv. It made no difference. Generally after 5 months of increasing hysterical letters they send one saying they have opened an investigation then a follow up saying they have authorized an inspector to call on me. Nothing happens, they stop writing letters for 2 - 3 months and they it all starts again.
In the last 18 years they have actually sent an inspector around 5 times
Twice I wasn't home and they just left a nasty letter saying if we had caught you you would be in trouble.
Once I opened the door wearing nothing be a condom and said it better be good you just pulled me out of my girlfriend. Inspector looked embarrassed and left.
Twice he has said tv licensing nothing to worry about, I just said you are right there and closed the door in his face. He hung around outside for out 10 minutes staring through my kitchen window with an expression on his face like a puppy that has just been kicked and doesn't know why.
In all this time they have never even bothered to find out my name or get a warrant to search my house. With this level of efficiency how to they catch people.
New science upsets calculations on sea level rise, climate change
Re: If this is true...
They are already slaughtering each other for control of resources and have been for a long time.
America & Britain murder their way through the Middle East to steal oil, maybe started in the 1950s with the overthrow and murder of the democratically elected leader in Iran just so that BP could keep control of the oil.
Israel murders their way through Palestine partly to fulfil their imagined religious destiny but mostly to steal water because the Palestinians have it and they don't.
A side effect of these wars is to reduce population. Britain, America maybe Israel have dumped thousands of tons of Depleted Uranium throughout the Middle East during their wars, which leads to massive rises in birth defects, cancers, death, disability and will keep right on killing for the next 10,000 years at least. Seems our "civilized" western nations are already doing something to get rid of what they perceive to be surplus and inferior populations.
Watching Olympics at work? How to avoid a £1k telly-tax fine
Re: TV Licensing RSoles
They have been doing this to me for 8 years now. They demand I take prompt action. I promptly put their letter in the bin. They have only visited once, I opened the door wearing nothing but a condom and told him that he had just pulled me out of my girlfriend and that it had better be important. The look on his face was priceless. No inspector has ever been back but they continue with the hysterical and threatening letters. As I have no TV I see no point in wasting my time with this crap.

Eurozone crisis: We're all dooomed! Here's why
@No such thing as an Anonymous Coward
Check the following it is all easy to verify:-
Which part of Poland has murdered tens thousands of German civilians with full support from Britain especially the British bankers do you not understand?
On March 31, 1939, Poland received a blank check from England, which unilaterally offered to guarantee her sovereignty; not only if Germany invaded Poland, but also if Poland invaded Germany! This merely served to stiffen Polish resistance to Hitler's genuine desire to achieve a permanent solution of all outstanding issues emanating from the Treaty of Versailles.
During the next five months the Polish government progressively intensified the oppression, harassment of and attacks on the 1.5 million ethnic Germans living in Poland. These attacks, in which over 58 000 German civilians were killed by Poles in an orgy of savagery, culminated in the Bromberg Massacre on September 3, 1939, in which 5 500 people were murdered. These provocations and atrocities were stoically ignored. Eventually Hitler was forced to employ military intervention in order to protect the Germans in Poland.
On August 30, 1939, in an act of great statesmanship, Hitler again offered to the Poles the Marienwerder proposals, namely retention of the existing 1919 borders, the return of Danzig (97% German), the construction of a 60-mile autobahn and rail link connecting West and East Prussia (from Schoenlanke to Marienwerder) and an exchange of German and Polish populations. On the orders of the international bankers, the British Foreign Secretary, Lord Halifax, strongly advised the Poles NOT to negotiate. This is how and why World War II was started. The ensuing forced war resulted in victory for the international financiers and defeat and slavery for all the people of Europe.
UK.gov threatens to 'pull plug' on smart meter rollout
Bills always go up with smart meters because they read the instantaneous power usage unlike the old ones that lagged a bit. The result of this is the heavy starting current on electric motors is metered with a smart meter but not with an old style meter. Hence dearer bills every time you use fridges, washing machine, tumble dryer, vacuum cleaner, power tools etc. A win for the power company and a loss for the consumer as always.

Global warming is actually good for rainforests, say boffins
We are busy talking about tropical rainforest and how it will cope and if it will continue to pump out oxygen but miss the point that approximately 70% of the worlds oxygen comes from plankton and cynobacteria in the ocean.

Wikileaks publishes encrypted 'insurance' file
Afghanistan was the country (Governed by the Taliban) where Osama bin Laden was living during and after the 9 11 attacks. america demanded that the Taliban extradite bin Laden to face trial on charges of terrorism and the Taliban quite rightly asked "do you have any evidence that he has commited any crimes." They futher said that if we had any valid evidence they would extradite him. We of course had no evidence or at least refused to show it if it existed and thought it would be easier to invade and over throw the government. It was of course no more than an excuse to build a pipeline.

Atheists smite online God poll
Existance of god
Gods do not exist independent of belief. First there is belief then there is god. All gods exist because they are believed in and will continue to exist while they are believed in. Once people stop believing in them they pass into myths and legends before finally ceasing to exist altogether.
Christianity and in fact most religions have this backwards.

Community Engagement Strategy
Community Engagement is a reciprocal process in which KMPT staff work together with the community, and where power is shared and values such as equality and respect are adhered to.
The Community Engagement Strategy for Kent and Medway NHS Partnership Trust has been developed to underpin the excellent practice that already occurs within the Trust. The strategy was launched at an event in February 2012 and provided an opportunity to learn about the strategy and meet representatives of community groups that Trust staff can work collaboratively with.
Community Engagement Strategy 2011-2016
Community Engagement Strategy leaflet
Developing a Community Engagement Strategy
The Trust's Community Engagement Officer travelled around Kent and Medway throughout 2010, meeting local communities to discuss issues around involvement, partnership working and equalities.
Feedback from these meetings highlighted a need to develop an improved approach towards accessing real expertise within our communities. To help achieve this we worked with our communities to develop a Community Engagement Strategy.
Local people, particularly those that use our services, will be vital to the success of this strategy.
We started the process of developing the new Strategy in December 2010 and a Community Engagement Strategy (CES) Working Group was established to develop the strategy.
We consulted on our first draft from June 1 until 22 July 2011.

One Billion Hectares Worldwide Have Now Been Planted With Genetically Modified Crops
That's more than the land mass of the United States
In the past 15 years, more than a billion hectares — an area greater than the land masses of China or the United States — have been cultivated with genetically engineered crops, according to an industry study. Biotech crop cultivation increased 87-fold between 1996 and 2010, making transgenic crops the fastest-adopted crop technology in the history of modern agriculture. Biotech advocates say it shows genetically modified agriculture is here to stay.
Worldwide in 2009, genetically modified crops were growing on 148 million hectares of land, or about 571,400 square miles. The area of worldwide farmland used for growing genetically engineered crops grew by 10 percent last year, according to the International Service for the Acquisition of Agri-biotech Applications, which is partly funded by the biotech industry. The 1 billion figure comes from adding up all the land mass that has ever been cultivated with GM crops since their introduction in 1996.
Roughly half those crops have been planted in the U.S., followed by Brazil and Argentina, the ISAAA study said. Developing countries are adopting biotech crops at a faster rate than industrialized countries, however. India had 9.4 million hectares last year, China had 3.5 million, and Pakistan had 2.4 million.
About 375,000 farmers in Burma planted GM cotton for the first time, growing seed that had been modified to produce a bacterial toxin that is deadly to pests. In all, about 15.4 million farmers planted biotech crops last year, and the ISAAA says more than 90 percent of them are poor farmers in developing countries.
Critics point out that 1 billion hectares (or 3.86 million square miles, or 2.47 million acres) is only equivalent to about 10 percent of the world's arable land, however, so it's not like the entire planet is embracing GM technology. They also note that developed countries — other than the U.S. — have been reluctant to adopt transgenic crops. Last year, total biotech acreage fell in the European Union.
The vast majority of the world's genetically modified crops have been designed to resist pests or survive proprietary herbicides, and just four lucrative crops — canola, corn, soy and cotton — dominate the market. There are no commercialized biotech crops for poor countries, at least not yet.
Clive James, chairman and founder of the ISAAA, said the next four years will see biotech crops with value-added traits and biotech versions of cassava, sweet potato and groundnut, common in some of the poorest places on Earth. Drought-tolerant corn is expected to be introduced in 2012, and golden rice, a strain of rice enriched with vitamin A, will be available to farmers in the Philippines in 2013, followed by Bangladesh, Indonesia and Vietnam.

I used to get a kick out of the scifi movies with the huge women or ants caused by radiation.
This sort of stuff is really scary. This is worse than any asbestos or pcb or ddt. The problem is companies are telling us this is OK and only time will tell. I doubt based on past ideas this will turn out very good.
It'd be more interesting to see how much land didn't need to be planted because of the GMOs. If less is lost to pests or it gives higher yields, fewer land will be used and we can gain land for conservation. Anyone know what the average increased productivity of the land is for GMOs?
One of the major players in the GM crop world, Monsanto, has several different crops that are patented. They don't allow seed saving and will sue you if you do it, you have to buy more seed from them every year. Thing is they still produce pollen and their genes can end up in your heirlooms. Then if they test and find it they can sue small farms for patent infringement. These companies, like sooo many, are EVIL.

Could Cyprus Credit Crunch Create Cash Crisis?
Submitted by Chris Caducky on Sat, 03/23/2013 - 01:19Paul Craig Roberts says that saving the 'dollar bubble' could only be done to the detriment of the stock and bond bubbles:
Now in Cyprus we see a banking solvency crisis that is resulting in a run for cash:
While ATMs in Cyprus are unable to dispense cash it is apparently still possible to use credit, debit, and other bank cards to purchase things. But it is reasonable to expect that as bank reopenings are delayed and as knowledge of the reasons behind the crisis are understood, small business owners will start asking for cash and offering cash discounts more and more?
Will this create an increase, however temporary, in the perceived value of cash over credit money?
I'm thinking that it will. Physical Euros, no matter how small they may be, no matter how paper thin, will still experience an increase in perceived value, however temporarily. Is this crisis potentially the last stand for paper money?

Nailed it.

Others Have Said the Same Thing
The question is what will people be doing with the cash? Are they rushing to get money out of the banks in order to immediately spend it on real goods that they don't necessarily need at the moment because they fear much higher prices and diminished purchasing power of their money?
Are they rushing to get their money because they don't believe there is enough to go around and they intend to safeguard it at home, and cut back on consumption in case they need the money later?

Ultimately it comes down to - why do they value those notes?
and why are they so evaluated???

The paper notes are at least tangible. The "money" people in Cyprus thought they had in their bank accounts evaporated into thin air along with the banks' bad assets. Some are realizing (too late) that they would have been better off with the 10% "haiscut" originally offered by the ECB. Their money simply no longer exists. No one has "taken" their money. Depositors "gave" it to the banks to gamble with. The bankers' bets lost. It's as simple as that.
The really interesting thing about the crisis is the behavior of the ECB. That the ECB would not simply back up ALL of the deposits in Cyprus is very telling. 13 billion euros is rather insignificant to them. If the ECB were acting in an inflationary manner it would have been a done deal already. Their reluctance shows that attitudes are changing and the effects are deflationary, not inflationary.

Once in a blue moon a movie escapes the shackles of its genre and does what it really wants to do. Kids in America is a movie like that. It breaks out of Hollywood jail.
Has its heart in the right place, but its head seems to be lost in a swirling maelstrom of teen movies that have come before.
A trite teen comedy burdened with lofty aspirations of rallying adolescent audiences to political action.
A comedy so inane and tedious that it buries its premise and its various worthy points under too many arch and improbable shenanigans and endless dialogue, much of it seriously under-inspired.
Overall, though, you get the exhausting feeling that Stolberg is desperately trying to prove how cool he is. And didn't you see enough of that in high school?
Filmmaker Josh Stolberg claims to have been inspired by real-life events, but mostly he ineptly rips off other movies and wastes a cast that includes Rosanna Arquette, Adam Arkin and Elizabeth Perkins.
Well-meaning but woefully unconvincing.
Because Kids in America can't decide whether it wants to be a stock teenage comedy or something more, it ends up stranded in the middle of nowhere.
The cast is eclectic and talented, but their roles are two-dimensional and the is-it-or-isn't-it-satirical? tone ensures that their performances never seem properly pitched.
Josh Stolberg launches a scalding attack on the stodgy conservatism of the American public school system, only to end up stacking the deck in egregiously smirky and simple-minded ways.
Nicole Richie loyalists are sure to be confounded (along with the rest of us) by Kids in America, the weirdly anti-Bush high school "satire" that is also Richie's big-screen debut.
Short on real teenage angst and emotion, the film is long on caricatures.

Reviewer: Monte Simpson S. Fri Feb 14, 2014: The quality of the tag is great and the engraving is perfect. The 24 chain was too short. I looked at your site for a longer bead chain, but didn't see anything. The quality of the chain I received was very good. I ended up buying the correct sized chain from eBay.
Reviewer: Ken S. Tue Feb 11, 2014:
Reviewer: Stanley J. Thu Feb 06, 2014: Very nice and I am very pleased with the product. This is the 2nd dogtag that I have purchased over the years. Being a repeat Customer probably sums it up best.
Reviewer: Sandy N. Tue Jan 07, 2014: I think the dog tag is a little to heavy for the chain I picked. Is it possible to order a heavier one?
Reviewer: Patrick L. Wed Nov 20, 2013: the quality of the disk and chain are very good, however it is a little difficult to read the engraving in some lights
Reviewer: Kristine S. Sat Nov 09, 2013: I was very impressed, from the look to the weight ad the inscription. I am very pleased
Reviewer: Mikhail (mike) B. Wed Nov 06, 2013: Beautifully made.
Reviewer: Patrick L. Sun Oct 27, 2013: I found the quality of the product very good and the engraving extremely well done. However it is very difficult to read in certain light. It might be a good idea to somehow darken the inside of the engraved letters
Reviewer: Nadine S. Thu Oct 17, 2013: It's great.
Reviewer: Gary T. Wed Oct 09, 2013: The product is great.
Reviewer: Larry R. Sun Oct 06, 2013: I could put all his information on the tag plus his name. He doesn't mind having to wear it ( he is not a jewelery person).
Reviewer: Linda K. Sat Sep 28, 2013: The ordering process was courteous and seamless. The product was correctly engraved and clearly identifiable as a medical alert to EMS/EMT/medical personnel lifesaving product.
Reviewer: Thu Sep 26, 2013: Very nice could save my life someday
Reviewer: Tina S. Mon Sep 16, 2013: A LITTLE TO HEAVY...I NEEDED A HEAVIER CHAIN TO SUPPORT THE HEAVIER DOG TAG

Reviewer: Obie M. Wed Aug 14, 2013:
Reviewer: Larry H. Tue Jul 09, 2013: Serves purpose. A little too big and heavy.

Reviewer: Sat Apr 20, 2013: I really like the Dog Tag
Reviewer: Cheryl W. Thu Apr 11, 2013: I was very pleased with the product and engraving.
Reviewer: Rory T. Thu Apr 11, 2013: Nice, chain looks like jewelry, not like cheap dog tags. I did not wear my old ones because of broken chain and I had a stroke. Nobody knew what meds I was supposed to take. Scary thing. Want to never relive that.
Reviewer: Harry B. Sat Apr 06, 2013:
Reviewer: Thomas L. Mon Mar 25, 2013: the inscriptions I requested would be easier to read if it was in color...the item itself was of good quality
Reviewer: Lewis W. Sat Mar 16, 2013: I really like the items I ordered,I am pleased with my order.

Reviewer: Norman C. Thu Feb 14, 2013: GREAT
Reviewer: Thomas C. Wed Feb 13, 2013: High quality, decent engraving, chain too small. Needed the larger 27 , but not available.
Reviewer: Jim D. Sat Feb 09, 2013: The silver looked more polished in the online photo. The rush order fee seemed like a ripoff
Reviewer: Dale B. Tue Feb 05, 2013: very pleased over all and I really liked the chain I selected because it is nice and solid
Reviewer: Patrick R. Sat Feb 02, 2013: My wife loves the medical alert dog tag necklace and never takes it off.

Reviewer: Tue Jan 15, 2013: was very pleaded with the product
Reviewer: Jerry N. Fri Jan 11, 2013: The dog tag itself was just fine, however the chain was not the right chain. I did not receive the beaded 29 inch chain that I ordered. I sent back the silver chain that was mistakenly sent to me over a week ago, but have still not received the beaded chain.
Reviewer: Connie D. Thu Jan 10, 2013: nicely done
Reviewer: Gail C. Thu Jan 03, 2013: Very nice.
Reviewer: Scott S. Thu Jan 03, 2013:

Reviewer: Wed Dec 26, 2012:
Reviewer: Mary E. Sat Dec 22, 2012: I liked the dogtag-type necklace. I expected that the 'heavy duty' silver chain would be heavier than it is. Also, I'm not sure that the little connector will last all that long. My son, whom I bought it for, is hard on jewelry.
Reviewer: Madelyne Mon Dec 03, 2012: Very impressed
Reviewer: Vickie B. Sat Nov 17, 2012: It was very nice and clean.
Reviewer: John E. Tue Nov 13, 2012: great value for the quality.

Reviewer: Steven M. Fri Aug 24, 2012: It looks good, people really notice. I play on a traveling softball team and this is what I needed.
Reviewer: Nathan S. Thu Aug 23, 2012: The clasp is too small for my fingers. The dog tag is about 50% larger than my previous one. Otherwise, the product is fine.
Reviewer: Sallie W. Fri Aug 17, 2012: Very well made, I bought both the stainless and the sterling dog tags
Reviewer: Carol E. Tue Aug 07, 2012: Also ordered a leather band bracelet. They both look very nice and easy on the eyes -- hopefully easy for emergency personnel to see. These were for my husband. I just asked him the other day which he liked better. He likes them both. Hopefully, we will never have to use them, but he has them if ever needed.
Reviewer: Frank S. Thu Aug 02, 2012: Very good quality. I wear it every day.
Reviewer: Harold R. Wed Aug 01, 2012: Very pleased. The product was actually much nicer than I thought it would be.
Reviewer: Barbara M. Thu Jul 26, 2012: I am very pleased with the product. It is not too heavy to wear and is subtle in appearance.
Reviewer: Norman D. Tue Jul 10, 2012: It was ok but Engraving is somewhat hard to read
Reviewer: Linda T. Mon Jul 09, 2012: i liked the USB port
Reviewer: Brad M. Mon Jul 09, 2012:
Reviewer: Max M. Sat Jul 07, 2012: I am very pleased with the Sterling Silver Dog Tag necklace and the stainless Steel Dog Tag Necklace. The delivery time was very good for custom engraved items.
Reviewer: Morgan F. Sat Jul 07, 2012: The quality seems OK; but I thought being sterling that the finish might be a little nicer. It sort of looks like dull stainless.
Reviewer: Tara E. Fri Jul 06, 2012: It was as expected to be. I thought that the engraving would be more legible though?
Reviewer: George J. Wed Jul 04, 2012: Fast Service, great customer service and proffesional engraving.
Reviewer: Clifford L. Wed Jul 04, 2012:
Reviewer: Les B. Tue Jul 03, 2012: Well made and ledgeable engraving.
Reviewer: Phyllis J. Mon Jul 02, 2012: very appropriate for what i was looking for
Reviewer: Glenn M. Thu Jun 28, 2012: Chain is very light - hope it's strong enough to last as long as I do. Otherwise, OK.
Reviewer: Patrick C. Thu Jun 21, 2012: It's much duller than I expected sterling silver to be; duller than the picture led me to believe. I kind of regret paying extra for it when stainless steel probably would've looked as good.
Reviewer: Helen F. Tue Jun 19, 2012: Great product Very sturdy and very clear to read Very impressed with this product as well and it goes comfortable and discretely on my Daughter's purse on the inside Thank you so much to you folks for a timely order Great service
Reviewer: Linda H. Sun Jun 17, 2012: Overall quality was very good (upgraded to better chain) and my Dad was not reluctant to wear the dog tag as it looks very masculine. The merchandise arrived sooner than I anticipated especially since I live in Hawaii, which normally takes longer so I was very happy about that.
Reviewer: Jim M. Sun Jun 10, 2012: i have found my dog tag to be very good quality, and I am very happy with it.
Reviewer: Louise D. Sat Jun 02, 2012: Tag was ok, but chain was defective as clasp lacked an o ring on one side to fasten to clasp. Exchange was made, however, my husband would have preferred a 28 chain to slip over his head wnich is not available.
Reviewer: Randy H. Tue May 29, 2012: good and strong andlook nice
Reviewer: Holiday C. Tue May 22, 2012: very pleased with the dog tag
Reviewer: Robert J. Sat May 12, 2012: I think it is a good way of identifying a person and a way helping when found of how to treat an ailment.
Reviewer: Joseph L. Thu May 10, 2012: Chain is short & thin.
Reviewer: Sherry R. Tue May 08, 2012: Very pleased with the look and quality.

ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of fluoroquinolone resistance on the existence and dynamic of MRSA clones. Resistance to ciprofloxacin was induced in strains of community-acquired (CA) MRSA from various sequence types and the fitness cost suffered by mutant derivatives measured in a propagation assay. In addition, the fitness of fluoroquinolone resistant health care-associated (HA) MRSA isolates from major clones prevalent in Hungary were compared with each other and with those of the CA-MRSA derivatives. The genetic background of fluoroquinolone resistance and fitness cost in CA-MRSA was investigated. The fitness cost observed in the CA-MRSA derivatives proved diverse; the derivatives of the ST30-MRSA-IV strain suffered significantly greater fitness cost than those of the ST8-MRSA-IV and ST80-MRSA-IV isolates. Strains from the New York-Japan (ST5-MRSA-II), South German (ST228-MRSA-I) and EMRSA-15 (ST22-MRSA-IV) HA-MRSA clones proved more viable than CA-MRSA derivatives with similar MIC values to ciprofloxacin and HA-MRSA strains from the Hungarian/Brazilian clone (ST239-MRSA-III). Our strains from the New York-Japan, South-German and EMRSA-15 clones seem to have a competitive edge over the tested CA-MRSA isolates in the health care setting. The greater fitness observed in our New York-Japan and South-German strains could account for the replacement by them of the Hungarian/Brazilian clone in Hungary about ten years ago. Alterations in relevant genes were detected. The Ser80 → Phe mutation in the grlA gene may have seriously compromised viability. Surprisingly silent nucleotide substitutions in the grlB gene seemed to impact fitness in derivatives of the ST30-MRSA-IV isolate.European Journal of Clinical Microbiology 01/2012; 31(8):2029-36. · 3.02 Impact Factor - [show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Until recently the etiology of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) was considered uniform. The infectious agent was thought to be a single strain of prion (posttranslationally altered form of normal prion protein: PrPSc) retaining its biochemical and biological characteristics during interspecies transmission. However, alternate PrPSc signatures through large-scale screening have recently been detected. In addition, genetic alterations governing susceptibility to prion infection and a mutation (E211K) capable of eliciting spontaneous BSE have been demonstrated. Thus, the spectrum of BSEs have broadened and three PrPSc variants (BSE-C, BSE-H and BSE-L) are now defined. Moreover, a new condition resembling BSE, idiopathic brainstem neuronal chromatolysis (IBNC), has been described that may also turn out to be a prion disease. Since one of the new BSE variants, L-type BSE, proved highly pathogenic detection and further characterization of the new conditions are essential.Acta Microbiologica et Immunologica Hungarica 04/2009; 56(1):53-60. · 0.65 Impact Factor

Greetings, welcome to the new blog site. Let's see how this goes.
Alagasco will soon become part of the bringham skyline. The utility is now working on installing the first of three signs atop the Sixth Avenue North building on Arrington Jr. Boulevard. Just another sign ... or three … that gas rates are too high.
A new badge of shame for Jefferson County? That's what a federal judge says. The County has been found in contempt of a federal hiring order, so an appointed receiver will now oversee all hiring and promotions to ensure women and minorities are considered on an equal basis. Concerning employees working licenses and tag renewals, they must now prove they can uphold the same level of bitter incompetence and entitlement that surpasses all bounds of race and sex.
Having no pressing concerns, President Obama yesterday hosted a football team that hasn't been relevant since 1985. The undefeated, untied Miami Dolphins 1972 team got the star treatment at the White House, featuring a 4:30PM dinner at Golden Corral and a case of Ensure. Three players did not attend due to their political beliefs ... and the fact they were stuck in the turn-lane with their blinker on for 5 miles trying to get out of Miami-Dade County.
Two teens are in custody after lifeguards claim they brought homemade bombs to a beach in Gulf Shores. The devices were soda bottles containing what authorities called "household chemicals." The Mobile Bomb Squad responded. , Diet Coke and Mentos are *technically* household chemicals but do we really need to call the EPA and FEMA when someone mixes them together? "Hey Mom guess what I learned how to make in school today? And BTW, the cops want to speak with you."
Public health officials in Iowa have issued a warning after a woman actually bought a tapeworm online and swallowed it in a very misguided effort to lose weight! Doctors say if you want lose weight, stick to less dangerous methods like crack cocaine.
The London City Hall took a major step in ensuring that humankind becomes obsolete by replacing their receptionist with a hologram. Administrators say the "virtual assistant" is much cheaper than a human employee even though it can only ask customers "are you John Conner?"
And a few things you need to know…
On this very day back in 1858, the first of the many famous Lincoln-Douglas debates took place. Lincoln won the debates, but over the next several decades, Douglas saw a whole lot more plays.
Actress Carrie-Anne Moss from "The Matrix" turns 46 today. The only Neo she sees these days has a last name of Sporin.
You may have heard 87-year-old Dick Van Dyke was pulled to safety after his Jaguar burst into flames. Investigators suspect the cause of the freak fire might have been a smoldering ember from Van Dyke's chim-chimney, chim-chimney, chim-chim-cheroo. Van Dyke reports his Jag was making an odd noise before the fire. He says it sounded like "chitty chitty bang bang." *
An unidentified man committed suicide at the home of Olivia Newton-John while she and her husband were away. For now, he's an Olivia Newton-John Doe.
Scientific researchers say that camels may be responsible for spreading a MERS virus that's infected 94-people in the Middle East and killed half of them. I think I'd walk a mile to avoid a camel. Most of the people infected with the virus were camel handlers. I don't even want to know what these guys do on "hump" day.
Because the dollar coin has been such a huge hit in its past incarnations, some U.S. Senators want to push it on us again. They claim the U.S. could save $5.6-billion by replacing the dollar bill with a dollar coin. It might actually work this time if they add a small hinge in the middle of the coin so it can be folded over a G-string.
Going to go out on a limb here and guess this event won't be sponsored by Chick Fil A. George "Captain Sulu" Takei will try to set a Guinness Book record at the Cincinnati Oktoberfest by leading the audience in the "World's Largest Chicken Dance." Set your phasers to fabulous! Those against gay rights plan to counter the event with the "World's Largest Turducken Dance." That's where you take a Chicken Dance, shove it into a Duck Dance, and then shove that whole thing into a Turkey Dance.
* Apologies for the painfully obvious ending to an already painfully obvious joke from yesterday.

Unless you've been without power, in a coma, or live in a cave then you know South Africa's Nelson Mandela died yesterday at age 95. He once said "It always seems impossible – until it is done." Of course, he ALSO said "In my country we go to prison first and THEN become president." Amazing individual –he used his nation's sports obsession to promote reconciliation between whites and blacks? Over here one game can cause a divorce. Even in death, Nelson Mandela has done the world a great service: Obamacare isn't the lead story today.
You can only buy food at Jubilee Joe's Restaurant in Hoover today, now that guns and weed are off the menu. An 8 count indictment was unsealed yesterday following the arrest of owner Kashif Mohammed Siddiqui. I thought it was just a restaurant, but Jubilee Joe's apparently also was some kind of laundromat. For money.
Some Somali gang members claim they have photos of Mayor Rob Ford using heroin. Now Ford is admitting he may have done heroin during one of his cocaine stupors.
It's sad that some North Alabama towns are cancelling Christmas parades thanks to the threat of a downpour. But it could be worse -- a winter storm is wreaking havoc on parts of the country. From northern Texas to western Kentucky, residents are prepping for slow travel and interrupted services AS ARE PEOPLE HERE WHO PAID FOR EXPITITED SHIPPING ON PACKAGES THEY WANTED YESTERDAY IN TIME FOR THE COMPANY HOLIDAY PARTY. Oh. And some people are really cold and having to cope with a lot of snow and stuff and it's very annoying.
The Library of Congress announced this week that the vast majority of American silent films are now decayed, destroyed and gone forever. But don't worry; every season of "Jersey Shore" is available on Blu-Ray. They should have made silent movies out of those little plastic rings 6-packs of beer come in, those things last in landfills for decades!
A few handfuls of fast food workers went on strike yesterday for a higher minimum wage. So fast food service was slower than usual? Americans could starve!! OK, well, not "starve" but they could lose weight!
There will be no rape charges filed against Florida State Heisman-favorite quarterback Jameis Winston. It was decided Winston is only guilty of illegal hands to just about everywhere and an extremely late hit on a cheerleader.
And a few things you need to know…
The Roman poet Horace was born on this date in 65 BC. Besides poetry, he wrote many of the popular books of the day, including "See You Later, Gladiator" and the complete line of Dr. Zeus books.
On this date In 1790, Congress moved from New York to Philadelphia because even New York had their standards.
The NORAD Santa Tracker is catching flak from a group of complainy-pants parents because the website shows a picture of St. Nick with a fighter jet escort. This group says children shouldn't know about things like jets because #stupidreasons and #whining. They need to face facts: Santa needs air support now more than ever! I'm not talking about a threat from Al Qaida or the Abominable Snowman ... with all the Amazon test drones and TSA spy satellites hovering around, Santa NEEDS a fighter escort just to find clear airspace.
Islamic police in Nigeria destroyed 240,000 bottles of beer to enforce sharia law. I tried to temporarily transfer $75,000 from my personal bank account to a Nigerian prince to prevent this from happening, but something went wrong.
A new report says koalas can make mating calls that are only possible for a creature the size of an elephant. O…K..? Why is the NSA eavesdropping on koalas' mating calls?
And … Wal-Mart says that on Black Friday, they sold nearly 3-million bath towels. Because when you go Black Friday shopping, you really need something that can soak up blood.

Thu Jan 31, 2013 11:28 am Wilhelmsen's great story culminated with the closer role in Seattle, as he replaced the struggling Brandon League last season. Wilhelmsen signed with Seattle in 2009 after a four-year hiatus from baseball, and his mid-90s fastball has made him a dominant reliever for the club. His 9.9 K/9 rate and 3.00 K/BB ratio of 2012 is the stuff of pure closers, and Wilhelmsen pitched even better in save situations than normal with a 1.76 ERA.
Fantasy Source Spin: Some will think Wilhelmsen is unproven as a closer, but all the peripherals show he can be a fine second-tier option.
