We all have the same God, we just serve him differently. Rivers, lakes, ponds, streams, oceans all have different names, but they all contain water. So do religions have different names, and they all contain truth, expressed in different ways forms and times. It doesn't matter whether you're a Muslim, a Christian, or a Jew. When you believe in God, you should believe that all people are part of one family. If you love God, you can't love only some of his children.
Muhammad Ali
The only thing as bad as bad comedy is bad action. Bad Boys II has plenty of both. In fact, those two things are all it has, unless you count the small helping of bad drama. When it comes to this movie, the word "bad" initially seems highly appropriate. But Bad Boys II isn't just bad it's a catastrophic violation of every aspect of cinema that I as a film critic hold dear. It seems to have been constructed with terms like "unwatchable" and "godawful" as its slogans. There are motion picture failures every year the resumes of Hollywood players are littered with them. But, when something this big a would-be blockbuster with recognizable names in the cast and crew collapses in such a spectacular fashion, it's worth taking note. Think of how many starving children could have been fed with the money that was poured into [director] Michael Bay's latest sinkhole.
James Berardinelli
The ancients had a taste, let us say rather a passion, for the marvellous, which caused them to forget even the sacred duties of gratitude. Observe them, for example, grouping together the lofty deeds of a great number of heroes, whose names they have not even deigned to preserve, and investing the single personage of Hercules with them. The lapse of ages has not rendered us wiser in this respect. In our own time the public delight in blending fable with history. In every career of life, in the pursuit of science especially, they enjoy a pleasure in creating Herculeses.
Franois Jean Dominique Arago
I want to run,I want to hide,I want to tear down the walls that hold me inside.I want to reach out and touch the plains,Where the streets have no names

Evil is the shadow of angel. Just as there are angels of light, support, guidance, healing and defense, so we have experiences of shadow angels. And we have names for them: racism, sexism, homophobia are all demons- but they're not out there.
Matthew Fox
How many Americans lives have been lost in this brutal and needless war? How many Iraqi? How many names do we know on either side?
Moran Margaret Cho
There are five prayers and five times of day for prayer; the five have five names. Let the first be truthfulness, the second honest living, and the third charity in the Name of God. Let the fourth be good will to all, and the fifth the praise of the Lord.
Sri Guru Granth Sahib
Our creator is the same and never changes despite the names given Him by people here and in all parts of the world. Even if we gave Him no name at all, He would still be there, within us, waiting to give us good on this earth.
George Washington Carver
To most people, Las Vegas is synonymous with gambling and glitter; a slightly, pleasingly sinful fairyland for adults where they can watch the most entertaining performers and biggest names in show business in between bouts of indulging in games of chance that everyone knows favor the house.
Every difference of opinion is not a difference of principle. We have called by different names brethren of the same principle.
Thomas Jefferson
We are sick with fascination for the useful tools of names and numbers, of symbols, signs, conceptions and ideas. Meditation is therefore the art of suspending verbal and symbolic thinking for a time, somewhat as a courteous audience will stop talking when a concert is about to begin
Alan Watts
The two principles referred to are Authority and Liberty, and the names of the two schools of Socialistic thought which fully and unreservedly represent one or the other of them are, respectively, State Socialism and Anarchism.
Benjamin Tucker
There is currently substantial interest for multiple tenants, but the announcement is premature. The names you are going to like, but the flip side to creating something this great means it will take longer.
CEO Mike Bowen
I think it's only in a crisis that Americans see other people. It has to be an American crisis, of course. If two countries fight that do not supply the Americans with some precious commodity, then the education of the public does not take place. But when the dictator falls, when the oil is threatened, then you turn on the television and they tell you where the country is, what the language is, how to pronounce the names of the leaders, what the religion is all about, and maybe you can cut out recipes in the newspaper of Persian dishes.
Don Delillo
Be not intimidated, therefore, by any terrors, from publishing with the utmost freedom whatever can be warranted by the laws of your country; nor suffer yourselves to be wheedled out of your liberty by any pretenses of politeness, delicacy, or decency. These, as they are often used, are but three different names for hypocrisy, chicanery, and cowardice.
John Adams
The time is almost upon us when a pack-train must wind its way up a graveled highway and turn its bellmare in the pasture of a summer hotel. When that day comes, the pack-train will be dead, the diamond hitch will be merely rope, and Kit Carson and Jim Bridger will be names in a history lesson. And thenceforth the march of empire will be a matter of gasoline and four wheel brakes.
Aldo Leopold
I held a blue flower in my hand, probably a wild aster, wondering what its name was, and then thought that human names for natural things are superfluous. Nature herself does not name them. The important thing is to know this flower, look at its color until the blends becomes as real as a keynote of music. Look at the exquisite yellow flowerettes at the center, become very small with them. Be the flower, be the trees, the blowing grasses. Fly with the birds, jump with a squirrel!

Robert Fuoss
All names of God remain hallowed because they have been used not only to speak of God but also to speak to him.
Martin Buber
What [Nietzsche] calls slave morality is to him purely spite-morality; and this spite-morality gave new names to all ideals. Thus impotence, which offers no reprisal, became goodness; craven baseness became humility; submission to him who was feared became obedience; inability to assert ones self became reluctance to assert ones self, became forgiveness, love of ones enemies. Misery became a distinction
Georg Morris Cohen Brandes
Films and gramophone records, music, books and buildings show clearly how vigorously a man's life and work go on after his death, whether we feel it or not, whether we are aware of the individual names or not. There is no such thing as death according to our view!

The Obama administration said Wednesday night that it would give Americans who buy health insurance through new online marketplaces an extra six weeks to obtain coverage before they risk a penalty.
The revised rule means those who buy coverage through the exchange will have until March 31 to sign up for a plan, according to an official with the Health and Human Services Department.
Administration officials said the change is unrelated to the many problems that have emerged with the marketplace's website, <f"SansBlackCondensed">HealthCare.gov<f"DMCrown">, in its first three weeks. Instead, they said, the shift relates to a different source of confusion that they called a "disconnect" among dates in the rules for buying coverage.
For the first time, the sprawling 2010 law intended to revise the nation's health-care system requires most Americans to carry coverage. Health plans sold through the exchanges will become available Jan. 1, but fines in the law for people who don't obtain insurance begin after they've been without coverage for three consecutive months.
The confusion is this: In the initial year, the open enrollment period to buy health plans through the federal exchange -- or 14 separate state ones -- runs through March 31. But people who buy coverage in late March probably will not get that insurance for a month.
So under the new rule, anyone who buys coverage during the open enrollment period will avoid a penalty, whether coverage has started by April 1 or not.
Administration officials said Wednesday they would issue formal guidance in the next few days about the change.
Joanne Peters, an HHS spokeswoman, portrayed the new deadline as not touching the fundamentals of the health care law, which is under a fresh round of criticism for its myriad technical flaws.
"The individual mandate timing has not changed," she said. "The deadline for signing up for insurance is March 31. It was true this a.m. It is true tonight."

Extending his financial advantage over Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama brought in over $40 million in contributions in March, giving him $131 million in the first three months of 2008.
Obama bested Clinton by a 2:1 margin last month, as Hillary raised $20 million, giving her $70 million so far this year.
Those numbers only reinforce the reality that Obama will again hold the edge in radio and TV advertising as we go into Pennsylvania and the final stretch of this Democratic race.
Really, for being outraised almost two to one overall, for Clinton to be behind only by 120-160 delegates isn't bad.
"I will have money to compete," Clinton said at a news conference in California on Thursday. "We're both raising huge amounts of money."
The problem is that it is getting more and more difficult every day for Clinton to turn the delegate numbers in her favor.
Some notable statistics from Obama's fundraising really stick out in March. Team Obama reported that he had over 440,000 donors, who gave an average of $96. Of those, almost half had never given money to him before.
That's pretty staggering when you think about it, because I would bet most of those newbies weren't giving the legal limit of $2300 for the primary and $2300 for the general election.
That means Obama can go back to them again and ask for more cash later this year.
On the TV ad front, the Clinton Camp announced that it was running the first ads for Hillary in North Carolina which votes on May 6th. Obama began his ad buy last week. She will be outspent there for sure.
After raising money last night in Beverly Hills, California, Clinton goes to Memphis, Tennessee today to mark the 40th anniversary of the assassination of Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Barack Obama won't be in Memphis, but John McCain will be, as he addresses a meeting of the Southern Christian Leadership Council.
As for McCain, there was another poll out today that showed a good sized chunk of Democrats ready to vote for McCain if their candidate doesn't win the Democratic nomination.
The poll from the South Bend Tribune showed that of Clinton supporters, if she was not the nominee, 66% would vote for Obama, 22% for McCain.
For Obama backers, if Obama was not the Democratic nominee, 63% would vote for Clinton and 16% would vote for McCain.
Those numbers for McCain would go down by Election Day for sure, but they are a red flag for the Democratic Party.
One final election note, former President Jimmy Carter all but said on a trip to Africa that he will be an Obama superdelegate. Why not just come out and do that now?

Thank you so much! Maps definitely encourage wanderlust (as it happens, I detested geography as a child, and it wasn't until I began traveling the world, that suddenly studying geography and looking at maps was enthralling). Here is the Palestine tag, though there's only a couple there, I believe there may be some others of areas within Palestine that simply weren't tagged "Palestine". That being said, I will keep my eyes peeled for new additions!

Excellent, I'm glad you found me, and thank you! Your wall papered with maps sounds lovely. Would love to see a photograph of it, if you happen to have one lying about.
Bashful confession: I am blindly in love and possess an affection for maps that is almost purely aesthetic. I am not particularly, or formally, educated in cartographic studies, and so, the filter I look at navigational maps, charts, and bodies of water in them, is no different than the one I use to view the rest of maps and aspects of maps. Apologies I can't be of more assistance!

Yes, I will keep an eye out for striking maps of Scandinavia. As for the sources of the maps I post, please see my earlier answer to this question here. I'm so glad you like the blog, thank you!
No, I'm afraid I don't. However, if anyone else reading this knows of one, it'd be lovely if you replied to this, with the link, or message it to if yousee-eva.

fucking love this game. Can't get enough of it. As good a purchase as Minecraft, for sure.
I bought this when it first came out because it looked pretty and because the demo only lets you use OGGs. Which is tricky of them.

I'll repeat what i said on the bombcast page:
The Polynomial is one of the most beautiful games or things i have ever seen.
Visually impressive. I love artistic, creative and trippy games. They're so gorgeous to look at.
Though I'm not feeling the gameplay mechanics. Maybe I'll get it when its more cheaper.

Please stop combining pretty shooters with good music. I need another FreQuency or Amplitude! Preferably, FREQUENCY!
I dunno. I don't see what the music has to do with anything. It's less of a "music shooter" and more of a shooter with a trippy electro soundtrack and no sound effects.

I'd like to see it with a real, recognisable song so I can see how the music actually effects what's going on.
Goddamn this game is beautiful. I want to buy it just so I can look at it, and encourage the developers to keep making flashing colors. But I can't afford it right now.. it's so cheap, but my money is needed elsewhere...
If it goes on sale, I WILL buy it. Soon, The Polynomial! Soon!
Also, totally called the Jeff Minter discussion before it happened. I wonder what he thinks about this game!
[edit] AHA! Or not! There's a demo! And an hour or so of that was more than enough to satisfy me. From what I can tell, the music only affects a single thing; the "animator" thing that you can set. It makes the "arena" behave in different ways visually. Like blink in rhythm with the music, or... move slightly up and down in rhythm with the music... No gameplay from what I could tell, and basically no intensity feedback either. Shame. [/edit]
Love this game so far, but couldn't help notice that Jeff didn't touch upon a few key points if you want to get the most of the 'game' part of this product.
Gameplay tips:
- Always be rushing into the blue ghosts - doing so increases your speed and the only way to survive insane mode is to be fast enough so the red robots can't hit you. Your speed will decrease over time though so you need to stay stocked up on blue ghost juice.
- Also, the slow moving red ghosts with light shooting out of them are currently eating (!) a blue ghost, if you kill it in time, you can save the ghost and you'll be guaranteed a power-up.
- The large static circular nebulas are hiding zones - if you get surrounded, wait it out in there until the red's move on and you can find some blue ghosts to get your speed on.
- The giant red sun is essentially a reflective barrier ala geometry wars - shots bounce off and do more damage to anything they hit but are super inaccurate.

Is one of them proper stereo 3D? Because if so, I CANNOT wait to run home and play this on my TV.
Looks even more trippy than Beat Hazard was which was also another awesome music shooter.

Click above to hear MP3 clips of our National Anthem
Hear national anthem in video below
words by Francis Scott Key sung to the tune of "To Anacreon in Heaven"
Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn's early light, What so proudly we hail'd at the twilight's last gleaming? Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro' the perilous fight, O'er the ramparts we watch'd, were so gallantly streaming? And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof thro' the night that our flag was still there. O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
On the shore dimly seen thro' the mists of the deep, Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes, What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep, As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses? Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam, In full glory reflected, now shines on the stream: 'T is the star-spangled banner: O, long may it wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion A home and a country should leave us no more? Their blood has wash'd out their foul footsteps' pollution. No refuge could save the hireling and slave From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave: And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
O, thus be it ever when freemen shall stand, Between their lov'd homes and the war's desolation; Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the heav'n-rescued land Praise the Pow'r that hath made and preserv'd us as a nation! Then conquer we must, when our cause is just, And this be our motto: "In God is our trust" And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Energy Efficient and Solar Cooling
Profile of Market Area
Already today many techniques are available which allow the use of solar thermal energy for air-conditioning of buildings. Our services in this technology area comprise consultance work for planners, carry-out of feasibility studies, system simulations on different levels of detail and accompanying pilot installations including a scientific monitoring phase. For many years only plants with medium and high cooling capacities (> 35 kW) for larger buildings were available. However, recently several companies started to produce thermally driven cooling systems also for the range of low cooling capacities (> 5 kW) and offers either prototypes or even standardised market products. Thus in the mid term it will be possible to realize solar cooling and air-conditioning also for small capacity applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which technologies are available
for solar air-conditioning today?
At first a general distinction between air handling units and water chillers
has to be made.
The function of air handling units is to supply fresh air to a room or a
building and thereby to replace exhaust air. At the same time latent loads
(water vapour, released by persons or processes) are removed. In many cases
the fresh air supplied to the building is cooled down and/or dehumidified
before entering the room. Both these thermodynamic functions – lowering
temperature and humidity of the fresh air – can be realized by an
air handling unit in which sorptive dehumidification and evaporative cooling
are combined. During sorptive dehumidification water vapour is being removed
from the fresh air and bound by a sorptive material. The technique which
is employed most frequently today uses so called sorption wheels. In thiese
wheels a sorptive material is fixed in the matrix. The air passes the wheel
trough chanels and thereby the humidity is transferred from the air to the
sorptive material. Most rotors today use silica gel as sorptive material
but also wheels employing a matrix out of lithiumchloride/cellulose are
available. Due to its limited sorption capacity the sorptive material has
to be regenerated after a certain time, i.e., the bound water molecules
have to be removed. Here solar energy can be used: by means of solar thermal
collectors – either using directly solar air collectors or solar water
heating collectors in combination with an water-to-air heat exchanger –
an air stream is heated up which flows through the sorptive material on
the regeneration side of the wheel. Thereby the bound water is removed and
exhausted to the ambient air.These open cooling cycles are also referred
to as desiccant cooling systems or desiccant and evaporative cooling systems
Systems based on chilled water use components installed in the room which
are flown through by chilled water and thereby take up room loads. Examples
are fan-coil units, chilled ceilings, chilled beams etc.. With some of these
components, such as fan-coil units, it is also possible to dehumidify room
air by cooling the air below the dew-point. Here a connection to the waste
water system is necessary in order to lead away the condensate. Supply of
chilled water can be realized using thermally driven chillers, which are
operated using heat from solar thermal collectors or other heat sources
(e.g. combined heat and power system). The most common technique is the
absorption chiller in which a liquid sorptive material is used to run the
cycle. In most cases of comfort air-conditioning a liquid lithium-bromide-solution
is employed for this purpose. Another option is the use of solid sorptive
materials such as silica gel or zeolite. In both cases hot water (or steam)
is required for operation of the machines; for this purpose solar thermal
collectors may be used.
Are systems available for residential
Commonly desiccant air handling units are available
for nominal air volume flow rates higher than 3000 m3/h; this value is far
to high for instance for a single-family house. For many years now water
chiller with a nominal capacity below 35 kW was available on the market.
But after several years of R&D, recently several companies start entering
the market with water chillers in the range of small capacitites starting
at about 5 kW. Both technologies, absorption and adsorption, are used for
this purpose. Only very few systems are installed today but it can be expected
that in the near future this will become a common technology.
Who supplies solar air conditioning
All systems which are in operation today have been individually designed.
Almost no companies offer complete solar air conditioning systems. Today
plants are usual with a nominal capacity of about 15 kW or 3000 m3/h, respectively.
Typically these are applications in the commercial sector. In this respect
normally planners are key players, who compose a system from appropriate
components. New components which are recently introduced into the market
allow the installation of pilot plants in the small capacity range.
What is the cost of solar air conditioning?
Is this technology economically viable?
Today thermally driven cooling and air-conditioning is usually applied if
a "cheap" heat source is available, such as waste heat, district
heat or heat from co-generation. Heat from solar thermal systems leads to
low operation costs while the investment costs are high due to the more
components needed. Based on today's energy prices and market prices
for solar collectors solar air conditioning is not economically viable in
most cases. Of course, the amount of extra costs depends on many boundary
conditions and in particular the cost for electric peak consumption. Naturally
the conditions are more favourable in sunny areas which also show a higher
demand for summer air-conditioning.
How can Fraunhofer ISE help during
planning and installation of solar air conditioning systems?
In a special project we can start to analyze the demand for air conditioning,
for instance by building simulation. Based on our expertise in building
physics we are able to provide assistance in measures focussing on the reduction
of cooling loads or the use of passive cooling technologies. Then we can
help the planer in finding the best concept to install a solar air conditioning
system. Based on annual simulation studies annual energy and cost balances
can be computed. Often such a study can provide important information for
decision making at comparatively low cost. During installation of a plant
we can assist the planer and installer by giving hints on details of the
hydraulic design and the system control.
Does Fraunhofer ISE develop new
concepts or systems?
Here, our key expertise is focused on solid sorption technology. In this
area we have long year experience in the field of materials and their characterization
as well as in development of processes and components. Our aim is to develop
advanced systems with increased performance – in the field of open
cycles as well as closed cycles – and with a particular focus on systems
in the small capacity range. Promising new concepts exist, which are ready
for development of commercial products in co-operation with partners from

The Marathon is an instituion
Every April since 1897, runners from all over the world race in the Boston Marathon. In recent years, more than 20,000 start the 26-mile road race that has become a bucket-list item for many marathoners. There are divisions for men, women and wheelchair racers, and it is extremely difficult to even get to the starting line because of strict qualifying standards. The recent tragedy has only increased the passion and demand for spots in the historic race.

Student Health Service
Allergy Injection - Important Information
You must report to the Student Health Service nurse any current illness and any prescription or non-prescription medications you are currently taking prior to receiving an injection.
NOTIFY THE NURSE IF YOUR PHYSICIAN PRESCRIBES A BETA BLOCKER. (See list of beta blockers at bottom of this page.) If you are currently using a Beta Blocker while receiving allergy injections, we will need verbal permission from your allergist prior to administering the serum.
Students are required to bring allergy serum with accompanying physician's orders when initiating allergy injections at the Student Health Service. Hours for injections are posted. STUDENTS ARE RESPONSIBLE to check signs at the Student Health Service indicating closings: i.e. at Holiday/Christmas break, spring break and end of spring semester before summer classes. If you have any problems with these times, special arrangements may be made on an individual basis.
No allergy injections will be given to a patient with hives, total body itching, wheezing, or fever greater than 100F.
The Student Health Service will not mix serum from different vials into a syringe. All serum will be drawn up into individual syringes and administered separately.
You are receiving injections of the materials to which you are most allergic. You may have very significant local or systemic reactions which require immediate treatment. Nearly all serious reactions begin within 5-20 minutes after the injection is given.
You should not scratch or rub the allergy injection site because it will irritate the area and cause swelling. If it itches or becomes sore, you should apply an icepack.
Inform the nurse immediately if you have any itching, hives, coughing, sneezing, tightness in the chest or throat, wheezing or difficulty breathing. These are symptoms of systemic reactions and require intervention. Systemic reactions after 20 minutes are rare and usually progress slowly but need prompt treatment as well. If a systemic reaction occurs following your departure, you should return to the Student Health Service promptly for treatment or after Student Health Service hours, report to the nearest hospital emergency room.
It is recommended that you do not do any strenuous exercise for one hour before and one hour after an injection.
All reactions must be reported before you receive your next injection. Local reactions consist of swelling and itching at the injection site. Please measure the size of the swelling (not the area of redness) and record the length of time the swelling lasts. It is important to report these two factors to the nurse prior to your next injection.
If you discontinue or fail to appear for treatment for a period of 120 days, your vial will be discarded.

The day I killed for my supper: It's the new ethical food fad. But as Tom Mitchelson found, when Bambi's in your crosshairs your appetite can suddenly disappear
- Charts Farm Venison in Kent, has seen venison sales go up by 40 per cent each year over the past five years
- Hunted deer made 35 starters and 15 main courses at Michelin-starred restaurant
- 'If we must eat animals, what is the best way to dispatch them?'
There's an eerie silver mist clinging to the trees, restricting my vision and obliterating distant detail.
The light is fast disappearing when I see a roe deer appear through the gloom.
It's about 100 yards away, and in the twilight I can just make out the reddish brown colour of its pelt. It's a buck and he looks around, sniffing the air, ever alert. I'm here with one purpose, but I'm not sure I can do it, or even if I should. I've certainly never done it before.
I raise my rifle into the firing position, taking the weight on a wooden post in front of me. Heart pounding, I ease off the safety catch and line up the animal in the crosshairs.
Huntsman: Tom Mitchelson stands over the deer he has just killed on an estate in Dorset. Michelin-starred chef Andrew McLeish crouches beside him
So what am I doing in a situation I wouldn't have dreamed of only a few weeks ago?
I'm crouching in a Dorset forest alongside Andy McLeish, executive chef at the Michelin-starred Chapter One restaurant in Farnborough, Kent.
He bears a passing resemblance to Fred Flintstone and, like his cartoon counterpart, he cooks what he kills.
Andy says consumers increasingly want to know where their food comes from. 'They always ask me where I get the food I serve.
'They want the meat to be locally sourced and to come from an animal that has lived a good life,' he tells me.
This means if there's venison — the meat that comes from deer — on his menu, he's probably been out with his gun. 'I think if I'm going to eat it, or serve it for others to eat, I should be prepared to kill it,' he says bluntly.
In theory, I agree with him. Though the thought of killing a deer immediately conjures painful images of Bambi, deer are, in fact, in plentiful supply in the UK, and it's important that a small proportion are culled every year to keep the numbers constant.
It's hard to track the exact number, but experts estimate there are well over one million in the country. And venison is more in demand than ever.
Sebastian Petersen, from a company called Charts Farm Venison in Kent, has seen sales of the meat go up by 40 per cent each year over the past five years. 'It's very healthy,' he tells me. 'Rich in beneficial Omega-3 fatty acids, high in iron and low in fat and cholesterol.'
That's all very well, and I'm always happy to order venison in a restaurant. But how does it feel to kill the animal you're going to eat?
There's only one way to find out, and I start by taking the advice attributed to Mrs Beeton: 'First catch your hare.' Or in my case, first kill your deer.
As Andy McLeish is somewhat of an expert, he agrees to let me join him when he goes out to hunt for something to serve his customers. But do I have the hunter-gatherer instinct? I'm queasy from the start.
We travel to a 2,000-acre estate in Dorset that is home to around 150 roe and 50 sika deer, which are slightly smaller. Of those, about 35 roe will be culled along with ten to 12 sika annually.
The estate is popular with deerstalkers, but anyone who comes here to shoot must abide by the Deer Act 1991, which controls how many of these beasts can be killed and by whom.
Before I think about tracking down my dinner, I must pass a shooting test. I'll be using a powerful bolt-action Mannlicher .270 calibre rifle belonging to David, who is responsible for the deer management on the estate.
Preparing: Tom Mitchelson watches chef Andrew McLeish prepare the venison. His starter was carpaccio of roe buck with summer truffles with parmesan and mache salad followed by a roast haunch and braised neck of roe buck
First, though, he wants to check my marksmanship. This involves shooting at a paper target at a range of 100 yards.
The object is to put the shots in a close group, and he won't let me go hunting if I can't do it because I need to be able to prove that I'm capable of making a clean kill.
I fire once, hitting the bull's eye. My second bullet is close against it. David pronounces it a pass. So we're not going to shoot again. This is slightly alarming because I know that the next time I fire, it will be at a living creature.
dusk, David, Andy and I drive to a part of the estate where, over the
past couple of days, David has seen some young bucks with less than
perfect antlers — a sign that they are not the pre-eminent males in the
He aims to keep the healthiest deer, which will breed most proficiently, and cull those that are not up to scratch.
Deer management, he tells me, is about controlling the population by culling because, while the roe deer population increases by approximately 25 per cent a year, the animal's habitat has been drastically reduced over the past couple of centuries by development and urban sprawl.
Meanwhile, natural predators such as wolves and lynx have become extinct in Britain. If culling didn't occur, the deer would starve to death or many would be killed on roads.
Using his hand to represent the deer, David shows me where I should put the shot to ensure death is almost instantaneous. I'm to draw an imaginary line up to just above the deer's front legs if he is broadly facing towards me, so that the bullet would go through the major organs such as the heart and lungs.
Our first task is to establish which way the wind is blowing, and then walk into it, which is essential because smell is a deer's strongest sense. We've been walking up a hill for only a few minutes when David whispers: 'Freeze. Drop to the floor.' My heart sinks. Secretly, I'd hoped we'd never find our prey.
We crawl 100 yards in the wet grass. Now my mood changes. Some kind of primeval human instinct has kicked in and I can feel the adrenaline coursing through my veins.
Cooking King: After it is shot the guts and organs are removed from the animal to get rid of harmful bacteria. The hooves and head are also removed. Here Andy McLeish finishes off the preparation process back at the restaurant
We make our way to the brow of the hill, and I can see four deer. Two sikas and the two yearlings David has seen before.
Slowly, I raise the rifle, but the sika deer seem somehow to be aware of our presence and edge away.
A few moments later, all four have gone. We continue our pursuit. Silently, we walk through the woods. Several times I think I see a deer, only to realise it's a stunted piece of vegetation.
Oddly, it feels natural to be playing the role of hunter. Passing through the misty forest, trailing prey that I intend to kill and eat, I'm experiencing for the first time something of what it must have been like to be a Stone Age man.
An hour later, with no further sightings, we return to where we first saw the four deer and wait. Another 30 minutes pass, until suddenly a roe buck appears ghost-like in the mist. It is one of the yearlings with the stunted antlers.
David tells me to fire when I feel I have the shot. I release the safety catch. The buck is in my sights. I aim for the heart.
Now my feelings change again. I don't have to do this. It's a beautiful animal, why should I decide its fate? What if I mess up the shot and inflict only a horrible injury?
But I know I have to push these thoughts from my mind because at any moment the buck could vanish again. Holding my breath, I gently squeeze the trigger.
The crack of the shot shatters the silence. I look up and see the deer leap. So did I miss?
'You've just shot your first buck, cowboy,' David says, and pats me on the back. I don't feel like celebrating, and I don't like the congratulations.
We go to see what we can find, and there is a small amount of bright crimson on the bushes. The deer is ten yards away, dead. The bullet pierced his heart and lungs, killing him virtually instantaneously. He's the size of a large dog.
I feel sad looking down at the creature. There's no pleasure in its demise — or rather, I felt a thrill in the chase, but the end is downbeat.
Dinner is served: Tom Mitchelson tucks into his meal of venison. His kill was enough to make 35 starters and 15 main courses
I lift up the carcass. It feels right that I should put him in the back of the truck. Some of his blood gets on my hands and coat. So this is what they mean by blooding.
Twenty minutes later, David has gralloched him — removing the guts and organs to get rid of harmful bacteria. He also cuts off the hooves and head. I watch with grim fascination. It's a surprisingly clean and efficient process, using a minimum of knife cuts.
That night, I dream I'm being hunted in the woods by an unseen entity. It is not a pleasant experience.
One week later, Andy McLeish invites me to his restaurant. The deer had been hung for seven days before Andy carved it up. He says it will make 15 main courses or 35 starters.
My dinner is going to be entirely based on deer meat. The starter is carpaccio of roe buck with summer truffles, parmesan and mache salad. The carpaccio is thinly sliced loin of raw venison, seasoned with lemon juice, olive oil and parmesan.
Savouring the taste of the raw meat, once again I'm overcome with primitive emotions — the sense that it is proper for me, having killed the animal, to eat it as well. I feel like a caveman munching on his defeated prey. And it is delicious.
For my next course, Andy has prepared a roast haunch and braised neck of roe buck, Jerusalem artichokes, shallot puree and venison jus. He poached the haunch at 62C for an hour, then roasted it in a pan of foaming butter. Yum!
However, this isn't just a culinary treat. Enjoying this meal makes me realise that from now on, when I eat meat I'll be keenly aware that it comes from a sentient being that has been slain in order that we might sustain ourselves.
There is another issue at play here, too: if we must eat animals, what is the best way to dispatch them?
I now know what it is like to kill. But to seek out that kill purely for the thrill of it still doesn't appeal.
Yes, it's better for the animal to be shot dead in an instant, rather than face the blood and fear of a slaughterhouse. I can't deny that, but no argument could make me enjoy the huntsman's task. I just don't.
And now I've done it, now I've tried it, now I've succeeded . . . let no one call me a coward for saying so.

Playaz Circle - Big Dog ft. Lil Wayne
Artist: Playaz Circle
Featuring: Lil Wayne
Producer: Wonder Arillo
Album: Flight 360
Avg Rating: 2.8 ( 40 total votes )
For the better part of the 2000s, Playaz Circle languished in label hell, bouncing from one distributor to another as they searched in vain for a viable single. Then, in March of '07, Duffle Bag Boy, hit the Web. Originally slated to appear on DTP compilation album Strength in Numbers, the Weezy-featuring summer anthem's success led Ludacris to shelf the comp and use the record to get the duo's debut album, Supply & Demand, onto store shelves. Two years later, Tity Boi and Dolla Boy need the same push to get sophomore effort Flight 360 released. Enter Weezy, who contributes an infectious, Autotuned hook to the "weed and syrup"-inspired Big Dog. Tity and Dolla's slow-paced verses and Wonder Arillo's hypnotic, keyboard-heavy beat (similar to M-16's on DBB) are sure to remind listeners of the duo's breakout hit. Big Dog is proof that Playaz Circle know how to make a hit—but if listeners still aren't sold, than look out for our feature of their second official single, Hold Up, next week. Find out this summer, when Flight 360 touches down at record shops and online retailers everywhere.

How many times have you thought while out in public places: "I should be able to get wi-fi here"? How great would it be to have FREE wi-fi everywhere you go? Would that make you consider purchasing more mobile devices? That's just one of the topics covered in this week's edition of the Data RoundUp, along with several others discussing:
- the final word on the Super Bowl blackout
- the record-setting Northeast blizzard of 2013
- the future growth of mobile payments
- the Internet of Things (always a favorite!)
The FCC & Super Wi-Fi for Public Use (Electronic Frontier Foundation): Having more open spectrum networks will allow WiFi (whether that's open WiFi, locked networks, or paid-for hot spots) to be faster, longer range, and more reliable.
By 2015, $1 Trillion in Payments Through Mobile (CIO): Until there is widespread adoption, developers should make complementary mobile apps that don't process any transactions, but still fall under the mobile payments umbrella.
IoT (Internet of Things) Growth Continues, and so does Chip Industry (GigaOM): To build the internet of things we're going to need a lot of chips — orders of magnitude more than we have in use today.
When Will the Bandwidth of the Internet Overtake That of FedEx? (XKCD): If you want to transfer a few hundred gigabytes of data, it's generally faster to FedEx a hard drive than to send the files over the internet.
TED Talks on Weather (TED Blog): Watch these TED Talks to get in the arctic spirit.
Synthetic Cell Circuits Become Logical, Develop Memory (MIT): Synthetic biologists use interchangeable genetic parts to design circuits that perform a specific function, such as detecting a chemical in the environment.
Super Bowl Blackout Blamed on Bad Relay Installation (Sporting News): Company officials said the device performed with no problems during January's Sugar Bowl and other earlier events, but has been removed and will be replaced.

text: Cold is very good for your laptop, Condensation isn't, If you live in an area that has a lot of humidity and or rain/snow ect then I would sugest you not keep it in your car. Recently I had a friend who lives in Illinois take his computer outside (in -20 degree weather) to see how high he could overclock it. He was us ing a 2200 mhz chip and i believe he got it to 2600 with it still working, The colder your computer is, the better it will run (because the fans don't really have to do anything if your case's ambient temperature is in the negatives and your cpu is at +5 (which is what my friends was) all in all cold won't harm your laptop, but moisture will.

Really sad to hear about Paul Bhattacharjee's death.
I first saw him starring with Meera Syall in a play called Blood by Harwant S. Baines almost 25 years ago. It was the first play I ever saw at the Royal Court Upstairs.
He made a greater impression on me less that a year later in Howard Brenton and Tariq Ali response to the Satanic Verses affair, Iranian Nights.
Over the years I have seen him in almost 20 different productions. I was always happy to see him in the cast list and more than once he was one of the reasons for my going to a play.
Paul Bhattacharjee RIP

Book IV, Chapter IThe Fundamental LawExchanges are not made simply for amusement. People who take the—not always trifling—trouble to exchange the goods which they possess for other goods, do so for a rational and material end, and, in nine hundred and ninety-nine cases out of a thousand, this end is to better their economical condition by the exchange.1 Whether this end be attained, and in what degree it be attained, depends naturally on the current conditions of exchange, particularly on the prices which the parties get as equivalent for their goods. It is, therefore, a perfectly natural thing that the motive which gives rise to exchange in general, namely, the striving after economical advantage, should maintain a commanding influence in the fixing of the exchange prices. In what follows I mean to inquire how prices are determined under the assumption that all who take part in the exchange act exclusively from the motive of pursuing their immediate economical advantage in it. The law which we shall arrive at in this way I have already,2 for very good reasons, called the fundamental law of the formation of price. I am perfectly aware that, in practical life, this law does not exactly obtain. For, although the motive of self-advantage is almost never absent, and is almost always the most prominent motive, still, in price transactions, other motives do very often get mixed up; such motives as humanity, custom, friendship, vanity, or the influence of outside institutions, such as government taxation, union regulations, boards for fixing wages, and the like, give them another direction than that they would have taken if exclusively dominated by self-advantage. Such motives, indeed, scarcely ever get the upper hand of the other to the extent of making us conclude an exchange which would cause us positive economic loss; but they often make us decide to be content with a less amount of advantage than we should have got in steadily pursuing our interests. I have on the same occasion3 expressed myself with all clearness on the theoretical and practical importance of the admixture of these other influences, and I shall only now briefly sum up what I then said. In actual life this admixture of motives causes certain modifications of the fundamental law of the formation of price, and the statement of these modifications cannot be neglected in any accurate and complete theory of it. But if all that is wanted is to grasp the characteristic features of the formation of price, it is enough to put forward the "fundamental law" above mentioned. For just as, among the motives that determine price, that of striving after self-advantage in exchange has the lions share, so does the lion's share in the theoretic explanation of the phenomena of price fall to the "fundamental law " here stated. And it is sufficient for us in our present task, as we have not to pursue the theory of price as an end in itself, but only so far as is necessary to establish the theoretical connection between the elementary phenomena of subjective value and the complicated phenomena of interest. In this law we obtain a principle which is not minutely accurate, but is amply sufficient for the further development of the theory of capital. Before going on to state the peculiar laws of price, it may be desirable to preface them by some considerations that may, more accurately, unfold the content of the fundamental motive which forms the assumption and basis of the whole of the following inquiry. In exchange transactions the decisions made always turn on two points; these are—(1) whether, in a given state of things, a man should exchange or not; and (2) if he decide to exchange, what form he should try to give to the terms of the exchange. Now in making these decisions it is obvious that the man who looks to his own immediate advantage and nothing else, will act according to the following rules. First, he will exchange only if the exchange brings him an advantage. Second, he will rather exchange for a greater advantage than for a less. Third, he will rather exchange for a small advantage than not exchange at all. It scarcely need be shown that these three rules are dictated by our fundamental motive, and constitute the practical substance of it; what does require elucidation is an expression that recurs in them all, "to exchange with advantage." The meaning of the expression obviously is—to exchange in such a way that the exchanger gains more in wellbeing from the goods he gets than he loses in the goods he gives; or, since the importance that goods have for life and wellbeing is expressed in their subjective value, to exchange in such a way that the goods received possess a greater subjective value than the goods parted with. If A owns a horse and is willing to exchange it for ten casks of wine, it can only be because the ten casks of wine have a greater value for him than his horse has. But, naturally, the other party to the contract thinks exactly in the same way. He, on his part, will not give up the ten casks of wine if he does not get for them a good that has a greater value for him. He will exchange his ten casks for A's horse only if the wine is worth less to him than the horse is. From this we get an important rule. An exchange is economically possible only between persons who put a different value, even an opposite value, upon the commodity and upon the price equivalent.4 The buyer must put a higher, the seller a lower, estimate on the commodity than he does on the equivalent. Indeed the interest which the two parties have in the exchange, and the gain they get from it, increases as the difference between their estimates increases; if the difference decreases their gain decreases; and if the difference disappears, and their estimates coincide, no exchange is, economically, possible between them.5 It is easy to see that, under the regime of the division of labour, there must be innumerable chances of opposing estimates, and therefore innumerable opportunities of exchange. That is to say, as each producer makes only one or two kinds of articles, and these far in excess of his own personal requirements, he has at once a superfluity of his own products and an absence of all others. He will, therefore, ascribe to his own product a low subjective value, and to other products a relatively high subjective value. But, conversely, the other producers will ascribe a high value to all products which they have not, and a low value to their own products of which they have too many, and here we have in the fullest degree that relation of opposite valuations which is most favourable to the effecting of exchange. Another idea that comes out in what has been said we may follow to its logical consequences. To one consulting his own advantage an exchange, as we saw, is economically possible only when he estimates the good to be acquired more highly than the good possessed. Now, obviously, this will more readily occur the less value he puts on his own commodity, and the more value he puts on the equivalent. A man who values his horse, subjectively, at £50, and values a cask of wine at £10, has, economically, a much greater possibility of exchange—or, as we shall say in future for brevity's sake, is much more "capable of exchange"—than another who values his horse at £100 and a cask of wine at £5. The former, obviously, can proceed with the exchange if six casks are offered him for his horse, while the latter must hold back unless something over twenty casks is offered him. If a third party again values his horse at £40 only, and a cask of wine at £15, obviously he would be economically capable of concluding an exchange if even three casks were offered him. Generally speaking, then, that exchanger is the "most capable" who puts the least value on his own commodity in comparison with that offered him in exchange, or, what is the same thing, puts the highest value on the other commodity in comparison with the commodity which he offers in exchange for it. Now that we are sufficiently acquainted with the meaning and content of our "fundamental motive," we may proceed with our proper work, and consider what are the normal effects which this fundamental motive exerts on the formation of price. In this part of our work the method already pursued by several distinguished economists seems to me by far the most convenient: first, by typical illustrations to show how, under certain definite assumptions, price is and must be determined, and then to separate the accidental surroundings of the illustration from what is universal and typical, and formulate the latter into laws. I shall begin with the simplest typical case, the determination of price in isolated exchange between a single pair of exchangers. [1.]Menger, Grundsätze, p. 153. Of course now and then exchanges may be made simply to show some person a kindness; perhaps to conceal a present, or a charity in the guise of an exchange. But such cases form only a quite insignificant minority. [2.]Grundzüge, part ii., in Conrad's Jahrbücher, vol. xiii. p. 486. [3.]Grundzüge, p. 480. [4.]It will be observed that our author does not confine the word Price to Money price, but applies it to the equivalent good or goods obtained in exchange for what is, pre-eminently, the good—the object of demand from buyers, and of supply from sellers. The convenient word Preisgut I render by "price equivalent," or simply "equivalent."—W. S. [5.]Say, e.g., that A values his horse at five casks of wine, while B values it at fifteen, then, if the horse goes for ten casks, each gains an amount of value represented by five casks of wine. If A values the horse at eight and B values it at twelve, each gains only a value of two casks. Finally, if both agree in valuing the horse at twelve casks of wine, B, of course, would be glad to get the horse for ten casks, or for any price under twelve casks, but A, naturally, would not give it him at that price. See Menger, Grundsätze der Volkswirthschaftslehre, p. 155. |

We don't really have buffalo in North America. The true buffalo are the Cape buffalo of Africa and the water buffalo of Asia. However, the American bison has been called "buffalo" for so long that we use the names interchangeably. Technically, these North American animals are bison and, sure enough, their scientific name is 'Bison bison', while buffalo are in the 'Bubulus' genus. All are related in the cow family but they have some physical differences, including horn shape and type of fur. To find out about more fun facts and trivia, follow the link.

Steven Lemke discusses recording software (VIDEO)
Date: November 10, 2010
by: Heidi Kurpiela | A&E Editor
A Frank Zappa fanatic, Steven Lemke grew up playing guitar and idolizing progressive rock and jazz legends, from the Canadian rock band Rush to jazz greats Miles Davis and John Coltrane.
Classical music, however, was a genre he knew little about.
"I didn't listen to classical music until I started working here," Lemke says. "I'm pretty open-minded, so when the other stagehands would go to the break room during performances, I'd be on the sidelines taking it all in."
Lemke says there's an art to recording the intricate sounds of classical music. Here he explains how he edits orchestra concerts using multitrack audio recording software.
