Comments about Balmya By Pierre Balmain:
I don't like most 'mainstream' perfumes because when they dry down there's a disappointing 'sameness' amongst most of them--to 'my' nose. I understand the basic principles in the formulation of 'personal fragrance'--e.g., Top, Middle, and Base notes--the latter being the most lingering--what you're left with after the stuff has been mingling w/your chemistry after a period of time.
A lot of fragrances are formulated using either synthetic or 'nature identical' components and 'Musk' is one of the most popular. I can believe that it's possible to have an artificial scent component that truly DOES smell like what it's imitating, but to me, most synthetics smell like what they are: fake. So many fragrances use some form of musk that that's the dominant aroma--and to my nose it emerges pretty quickly, which accounts for the degree of similarity among a large number of 'popular' scents, and my distaste for them. So you've got a lot of 'choices' that all end up smelling like some configuration of Musk along w/misc other 'cheap' aromas. [Again, please keep in mind that I'm talking about the olfactory life of 'my' nose!].
Fast forward re *Balmya*: to my nose it doesn't dry down to smell like everything else--it has and retains its own identity/individuality. There's a 'timeless/classic' aspect to this scent which is part of what makes a fragrance even worth considering; it's also subtle, but potent and distinctive--such as could be said about Violets; rather than have a musky aftermath, Balmya is more spicy/woody, but distinctly Feminine.
I would definitely purchase a larger size of this product, but give it a '4' rather than a '5' because it's lacking an indefinable property that would make it absolute perfection to me; I'd actually give it a '4.75' if I could :)

Comments about Balmya By Pierre Balmain:
it was pretty much love at first sight. i was looking for a new scent and i tried many different perfumes and none of them made me smile like Balmaya. the scent is very long lasting and the notes are all equally strong. the first note is very oriental and floral, then it somehow gets sweet and spicy, the last note is a very satisfying earthy, cottony scent that you'd find a grin on your face.
but then my housemate finds it a bit too strong for her (she's more of the classic, natural style).

Recommendations Made to Close Four Girl Scout CampsBy Addison Speck, Reporter
CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa - The Girls Scouts of Eastern Iowa and Western Illinois will vote next month on whether to close all four Girl Scout camps in the region. The board of directors received a recommendation to do so from a volunteer property committee who has spent several years doing research, collecting data, and input from volunteers, Girl Scouts, and others.
Allison Johnson, the Vice President of Performance Excellence and Regional Director for the Girl Scouts of Eastern Iowa and Western Illinois, said it was a set of 3 recommendations. "The first part is that we would sell all four of our camp properties. The second part is that we would do a feasibility study to look at what the needs of the girls are and how they prefer to have an outdoor experience. The third part is that our council will look to partner with other organizations that have facilities that perhaps we could utilize in the interim," she said. The Girl Scouts of Eastern Iowa and Western Illinois has seen an increase in membership for the past six years but a decline in the usage of camps. "When you look at 10 percent of your total membership actually utilizing camp facilities, you have to look at how you are allocating dollars towards those. You also have to look at what that costs the council, as well as if this is really a benefit to the total Girl Scout membership," said Johnson. She said by Girl Scouts not attending camp, it sends the message that it's not something they really want to be a part of. The committee also determined that major infrastructure changes are needed. "They realized that for today's girls, none of the properties meet their expectations or their needs completely. The infrastructure and amenities are just not there to help the girls become comfortable in an outdoor experience," Johnson said. But for current Girl Scout Lyndsay Gienapp, of Anamosa, camp was an adventure she will never forget. "It was just really fun because we got to go zip lining and we got to go swimming and the counselors were really fun too," she said. Last summer was Gienapp's first time attending Girl Scout camp. She's being selling cookies to go back again this coming summer. "I just like making new friends and just being there. You get all new experiences," she added. Gienapp's mother, Cristin, was also a Girl Scout growing up and attended the same camp as Gienapp did last summer. "It's sad. I understand times are changing and it does cost a lot of money to keep the camps running, so hopefully just going out and selling more Girl Scout Cookies will help," Cristine said. Johnson said that if the vote does pass, they will look to partner with other organizations so that the Girl Scouts are still getting an outdoor experience. "That is always going to be the core of our Girl Scout program," she said. Johnson said Girl Scout camp will proceed as planned this summer. The vote is scheduled for March 28th, which allows people time to provide input before the board of directors votes.

The Biotechnology Industry Organization (BIO) today asked the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to consider changes to the proposed RFS Renewable Identification Number (RIN) Quality Assurance Program (QAP) proposal. The agency invited comments on its proposed voluntary quality assurance program, which was drafted to address recent instances of fraudulent RIN generation by three renewable fuel producers.
"The RFS is the single most important federal policy driving investment and commercialization of conventional and advanced biofuels. Investment spurred by the RFS has led to the development of commercial-scale advanced and cellulosic biofuel facilities that are currently in the process of starting up production of qualifying renewable fuel," wrote Brent Erickson, executive vice president of BIO's Industrial & Environmental Section in the comments. "Federal policies, including the proposed QAP, should clear a path for companies making investments, building new biorefineries and bringing innovative technologies to the marketplace."
"The proposed QAP would place unnecessary and burdensome costs on biofuel producers—especially small producers recently achieving commercial status—which would not outweigh the potential benefits of the program on the RIN market. BIO recommends several changes to the proposed QAP to help ensure the RFS policy continues to encourage all biofuel producers to generate RINs," Erickson continued.
BIO's recommended changes would ensure the program is truly voluntary, that it does not enable potentially anti-competitive behavior, and that it does not impose costly, duplicative and unnecessary regulatory requirements on renewable producers in the early stages of commercial development. "Small producers, in particular, are being asked to incur costly and duplicative reviews of their facilities in exchange for verified status for RINs. There is no guarantee in the proposed QAP that verified RINs will provide a return on those costs. Yet, there is the potential that competitors can force these costs on small producers as a condition for RIN trading, thereby increasing costs to an intolerable level," Erickson wrote.

Nonsense Spam Designed to Hide Evidence of Identity Theft
Nonsense spam - messages containing no links or images and which seem to have no discernible purpose - may be harmless themselves, but they are often designed to mask more nefarious activity, according to security analysts. Nonsense spam typically arrives in barrages, overwhelming an email account and causing the owner to begin rapidly deleting mass quantities of messages, as many as 60,000 in a 12-24 hour period. But the messages are a distraction, designed to hide email confirmations, receipts and other legitimate inbox activity which occur when the user of a stolen credit card or bank account is making large purchases.

Printed for you from the St. Mary's of Michigan website on 03/08/14 CyberKnife |
CyberKnifeCyberKnife radiosurgery is a painless, non-invasive radiation treatment that can be used as an alternative to open surgery in certain cases. It uses image-guided robotics to non-invasively destroy tumors and other lesions with multiple beams of high-energy radiation. The cumulative effect of all the beams at the target results in the lesion receiving a very high dose of radiation while nearby normal tissue is preserved.
CyberKnife treatment gives physicians the opportunity to help patients who couldn't be helped before, especially those with cancerous or non-cancerous tumors in the brain, lung, neck, spine, liver, and prostate. Tumors that were once considered inoperable are often treatable with CyberKnife.
CyberKnife at St. Mary's of Michigan is only the second such system in the state of Michigan and is the only one north of Ann Arbor.
CyberKnife is located at St. Mary's of Michigan Seton Cancer Institute, 800 S. Washington, Saginaw. For more information, call (989) 907-8115. |

Uses For voriconazole
Voriconazole injection is used to treat certain serious fungal or yeast infections, such as aspergillosis (fungal infection in the lungs), candidemia (fungal infection in the blood), esophageal candidiasis (candida esophagitis), or other fungal infections (including infections in the skin, stomach, kidney, bladder, and wounds). It may also be used to treat patients with serious fungal or yeast infections who cannot tolerate other types of medicine or who do not respond to other types of medicine.
voriconazole is available only with your doctor's prescription.
Before Using voriconazole
In deciding to use a medicine, the risks of taking the medicine must be weighed against the good it will do. This is a decision you and your doctor will make. For voriconazole, the following should be considered:
Tell your doctor if you have ever had any unusual or allergic reaction to voriconazole or any other medicines. Also tell your health care professional if you have any other types of allergies, such as to foods, dyes, preservatives, or animals. For non-prescription products, read the label or package ingredients carefully.
Appropriate studies have not been performed on the relationship of age to the effects of voriconazole injection in children younger than 12 years of age. Safety and efficacy have not been established.
Appropriate studies performed to date have not demonstrated geriatric-specific problems that would limit the usefulness of voriconazole injection in the elderly.
Pregnancy Category | Explanation | |
All Trimesters | D | Studies in pregnant women have demonstrated a risk to the fetus. However, the benefits of therapy in a life threatening situation or a serious disease, may outweigh the potential risk. |
Breast Feeding
There are no adequate studies in women for determining infant risk when using this medication during breastfeeding. Weigh the potential benefits against the potential risks before taking this medication while breastfeeding.
Interactions with Medicines
Although certain medicines should not be used together at all, in other cases two different medicines may be used together even if an interaction might occur. In these cases, your doctor may want to change the dose, or other precautions may be necessary. When you are receiving voriconazole, it is especially important that your healthcare professional know if you are taking any of the medicines listed below. The following interactions have been selected on the basis of their potential significance and are not necessarily all-inclusive.
Using voriconazole with any of the following medicines is not recommended. Your doctor may decide not to treat you with this medication or change some of the other medicines you take.

Using alcohol or tobacco with certain medicines may also cause interactions to occur. Discuss with your healthcare professional the use of your medicine with food, alcohol, or tobacco.
Other Medical Problems
The presence of other medical problems may affect the use of voriconazole. Make sure you tell your doctor if you have any other medical problems, especially:
- Cancer treatment (e.g., chemotherapy), history of or

Proper Use of voriconazole
A nurse or other trained health professional will give you voriconazole. voriconazole is given through a needle placed in one of your veins. It will be given slowly, so your IV tube will need to stay in place for up to 2 hours.
Your doctor will give you a few doses of voriconazole until your condition improves, and then switch you to an oral medicine that works the same way. If you have any concerns about this, talk to your doctor.
Precautions While Using voriconazole
It is very important that your doctor check the progress of you or your child at regular visits to make sure that voriconazole is working properly. Blood tests will be needed to check for unwanted effects.
If your symptoms do not improve within a few days or if they become worse, check with your doctor.
Using voriconazole while you are pregnant can harm your unborn baby. Use an effective form of birth control to keep from getting pregnant. If you think you have become pregnant while using the medicine, tell your doctor right away.
You should not use any of the following medicines while you or your child are receiving voriconazole:
- Astemizole (Hismanal®) or
- Carbamazepine (Tegretol®) or
- Cisapride (Propulsid®) or
- Ergot medicines (bromocriptine, dihydroergotamine, ergotamine, methysergide, Parlodel®, or Sansert®) or
- Phenobarbital (Luminal®) or
- Pimozide (Orap®) or
- Quinidine (Quinora®) or
- Rifabutin Mycobutin®) or
- Rifampin (Rifadin®, Rimactane®) or
- Ritonavir (Norvir®) or
- Sirolimus (Rapamune®) or
- St. John's wort or
- Terfenadine (Seldane®).
Using any of them together with voriconazole may increase the chance of unwanted effects.

Check with your doctor right away if you or your child have pain or tenderness in the upper stomach; pale stools; dark urine; loss of appetite; nausea; unusual tiredness or weakness; or yellow eyes or skin. These could be symptoms of a serious liver problem.
voriconazole may cause a serious type of allergic reaction called infusion reaction. This can be life-threatening and require immediate medical attention. Tell your doctor or nurse right away if you or your child have a fever, chills, flushing, itching or skin rash, shortness of breath, sweating, trouble with breathing, lightheadedness, fainting, or chest tightness within a few hours after you receive it.
voriconazole may make your skin more sensitive to sunlight. Use a sunscreen when you are outdoors. Avoid sunlamps and tanning beds.

Ext. 42
Commonly known as "Fazz", Mark seeks pleasure in blasting house music while creating pixel-perfect frontend development. Mark is self-taught and has never taken a computer science class. After playing hockey goalie for almost 15 years, he took enough pucks to the head to realize that he loves being on a team filled with skilled players. Mark plays drums, piano, and guitar, and when not coding, jams out to Radiohead or installs performance parts in his car.
Superhero Bio:
Mark Fazzio, multi-millionaire playboy and industrial scientist owner of Fazcorp, fell victim to a freak accident while attempting to combine the earth-thumping powers of the Fazcorp Atomicar with experimental nanotechnology. The hopelessly attracted nanobots, intended to allow men to work on Mercury's surface, allow Mark to absorb the sun's hyper-incandescent energy, giving him the power of flight, super-strength, and the Atomic Fist Pump, a devastating slap to the chops for all who oppose NF's heroic exploits.

Born 1871, Died 1961 |
Eugene Schoch was born to American parents in Berlin in 1871, and moved to Texas in the early 1880s. He grew up on a farm near Floresville, Texas, and entered the University as an undergraduate shortly after it opened. He graduated with a degree in civil engineering in 1894, and spent a period as a surveyor in San Antonio. He returned to Austin and received a Master's degree in chemistry in 1896. He served as an instructor in the Chemistry Department thereafter, spending his summers pursuing a PhD at the University of Chicago. At Chicago he studied under Julius Stieglitz, and his dissertation, The Red and Yellow Mercuric Oxy-Chlorides, was accepted in 1902. Schoch was a member of the UT faculty for 65 years. He was the founding father of the discipline of chemical engineering at UT, and advocated vigorously for its recognition as a separate department, which occurred in 1938. He organized the Bureau of Industrial Chemistry in 1927, and served as its director for 25 years. His interest in Industrial Chemistry (later known as chemical engineering) followed earlier contributions to the study of theoretical chemistry, for which he was known worldwide. Schoch was also a beloved campus figure and popular teacher. He organized the University Orchestra, and later founded the Longhorn Band. He was director of them both for many years. As one of the early founders of the School of Chemistry, Schoch allied himself with Bailey and Harper to demand adequate time for research and publication. In those days, pure research was widely dismissed as a frivolous activity that interfered with teaching. He devoted much of his research career to the betterment of Texas' natural resource consumption and conservation. A true pioneer in industrial chemistry, Schoch worked in such disparate areas as water treatment, natural gas and methane conversion, mineral resources, and oilfield development. He sought fundamental principles that could be applied to industrial processes and economic benefit. Eugene Schoch was one of the most important figures in the history of the University of Texas. He remained actively involved in university life until his death at the age of 89 in 1961. The then-Chemical Engineering Building was named in his honor in 1969.

Help Set "The Copenhagen Consensus"!
Vote now to tell policymakers what global problems should be tacked first
A note from Bjorn Lomborg, author of The Skeptical Environmentalist and the director of the Copenhagen Consensus Project, which seeks to prioritize global policy decisions according to sound science and rational cost-benefit analysis rather than media-driven hysteria:
The pain caused by the global food crisis has led many people to belatedly realize that we have prioritized growing crops to feed cars instead of people. That is only a small part of the real problem.
The crisis demonstrates what happens when we focus doggedly on one specific—and inefficient—solution to one particular global challenge. A reduction in carbon emissions has become an end in itself. The fortune spent on this exercise could achieve an astounding amount of good elsewhere.
In a year, malnutrition in mothers and their young children will cause 3.5 million deaths. Conflict will wreak havoc and cause untold suffering. Malaria will take a million lives—most of them among children.
Yet famine, war, and disease are rated poorly when residents of the First World are asked to name the planetary challenges causing them the most concern. Along with climate change, the issue that creates the most anxiety is terrorism.
The Copenhagen Consensus 2008 project is designed to put fear to one side and highlight the best solutions among all of the world's biggest problems. The research on these pages reveals our stark spending choices in 10 areas.
Comparing costs and benefits is a transparent and practical way to show whether expenditure is futile or worthwhile. It gives us a means to step back and weigh competing options for the public purse or philanthropist's checkbook. It prompts us to take another look at our current priorities and ask: is this really the best that we can do?
Acknowledging that some investments shouldn't be our topmost priority isn't the same as saying that the challenges don't exist. It simply means working out how to do the most good with our limited resources, right now.
In the last week of May, top economists—including five Nobel Laureates—will gather in Copenhagen to weigh the costs and benefits of each policy option, and make a prioritized list showing the best and worst choices.
Have your say ahead of their decision. With limited resources, which challenge do you think global decision-makers should tackle first?—Bjorn Lomborg
What follows are short discussions about how to deal with 10 areas, ranging from air pollution to global warming to women and development. Each topic section includes two options to ameliorate the situation. Each solution has been assigned a benefit-to-cost ratio (BCR) by researchers commissioned by the Copenhagen Consensus Project 2008. For information about the researchers for each section, please go here.
reason online readers are invited to rank which areas of concern they think are most important and which solutions you prefer. You may submit your rankings here. The results will be tabulated and announced on the site next week.
1. Air Pollution
The Olympic Games has given China the motivation to get serious about the smog that chokes its capital city.
Major polluters have been shifted away from Beijing. Coal-burning boilers have been converted to cleaner fuels, and vehicle emission standards have been introduced. All this so that athletes—and the world's media—see clear skies. Sadly, few other cities in the developing world have similar motivation to clear the air. Air pollution—in the form of outdoor urban pollution and of 'indoor' pollution caused by old-fashioned cooking methods—kills nearly 2.5 million people each year; 90 percent of the fatalities happen in developing nations.

"The Copenhagen Consensus project seeks to replace media-driven hysteria with sound science and rational cost-benefit analysis as the starting point in discussions of global policy."
And we'll do that by conducting a poll of the laity to see what most makes them poop their pants. -
Would it be possible to save or print the page so I can remember how I prioritized?
I think memory enhancement should be one of the global problem areas... it is just as important (for me today anyway) as male organ enhancement! -
Interesting how free markets and capitalism, manifesting in Doha, have a BCA index over 1000.
What, exactly, is libertarian about setting global policy?
I love having an article like this handy. Whenever I run into some incoherent single-issue alarmist, I can toss them a link to that article. It should at least be good for making them think a little.
I hope there's some site where we can track the results of this poll, for more than just viewers of this site. It would be rather entertaining to see how the priorities vary depending on geographic location, political persuasion, and similar factors. -
"Gender equity" is a "pressing global problem"?
Not even close. -
Bjorn Lomborg said, "There is unequivocal evidence that humans are changing the planet's climate."
I can't tell if that's the distant sound of heads exploding or if someone's making popcorn in the breakroom. -
Gilbert, I suspect you'd feel much differently if you were a widow in India, a muslim girl in Afghanistan trying to get an education, or a war widow in just about any third world country whose husband was dragged off to fight for some dirty warlord.
I ranked the femlib option pretty low, largely because I don't think it's doable in the places where it's needed most. You can't effectively impose those kinds of cultural changes from abroad with any consistency, and you can cause a lot of unintended painful consequences if you try.
For similar reasons, I gave a low ranking to the idea of distributing pills to a huge target population on a regular basis, and on aid in general: I question how doable it is. Digging a well makes more sense; digging it is a one-time thing, and poor villagers can't steal the well and sell it to someone else.
I loved the microfinance option, since it taps into local ingenuity instead of seeking to have first world bureaucrats imposing a solution from above. -
everything is fine thank you...really
but if I have name a number one threat its pseudo-state and state bureaucrat/politicos like the ones in this ding bat Denmark group who went to ivy league schools and thus never want a real job, want to pretend to be intellectuals the rest of their pathetic, meaningless lives (whoops, only become meaningful if they achieve some sort of state action in whatever problem they think is crucial), and who keep trying to control our lives thru garbage like this to begin with
really, did Chapman ghost write this article? -
Brambly, I would wholeheartedly agree with you on the gender issues, especially concerning our ability to affect change. I just have a problem with someone saying it's a non-issue.
I ranked microfinance pretty high, too. I'm trying to remember the name of that business that couple started a couple of years ago that uses the internet to match up potential micro-lenders in the west with borrowers in the third world... -
Good fargin grief. One false dichotomy after another. Where is the selection that says 'Laissez nous faire'?
You'd think for a magazine touting free minds and free markets....
yeah, yeah, I know the rulez...DRINK! -
Even as a borderline anarcho-capitalist, I've always appreciated reason's rationality and willingness to set aside the ideological lens and offer objective analysis when appropriate. But come on, I do at least expect that reason be an actual libertarian magazine. There is nothing remotely libertarian about getting together a bunch of people to tell the governments of the world that they should spend all their money on Big Problem X. Isn't the whole idea that nine times out of ten, Big Problem X isn't something the government should be interfering with? And what's more- usually had a hand in creating?
I really don't give a shit about any of those things except trade barriers. Most of them are just "LETS DO SOMETHING!!!!!" bullshit that will only end up costing me freedoms and money.
The people going on about "this isn't libertarian!" need to stop for a minute and think. Whether we like it or not, governments are going to waste money on these programs, the least we can do is have them waste money on semi-free trade agreements like Doha rather than absurd things like foreign military aid. You might consider this "selling out" but realism, for me, trumps ideology.
Bjorn Lomborg said, "There is unequivocal evidence that humans are changing the planet's climate."
Perhaps you should have read his book...
It said the same thing 7 years ago. -
I believe eBay also has a microfinance subsidiary, but I could be mistaken. -
The world's biggest issue is that we haven't yet risen up against the Oppressor... oh, I'm sorry, what I meant was that our problems go a bit deeper than those listed. They involve things such as a largely out of control elite and, let's face it, dumb sheeple (as they say) who have no clue how to do anything about it.
For a tangible example, plently of RP supporters have wasted a lot of time on jokes like blimps, but they just can't figure out that going negative on his opponents is the only way he's going to get anywhere. -
"Gilbert, I suspect you'd feel much differently..."
As far as I'm concerned, any problem that isn't a problem for me personally is no problem at all. -
Stating "There is unequivocal evidence that humans are changing the planet's climate." allows the argument to go forward on the best course of action from a results point of view. It is pure genius to move the discussion to what's really relevant. He spoke here in Alaska a month ago and his best comment was something along the lines of "If we really care about the polar bears, perhaps we should stop shooting them." He stated we shoot 300 - 500 per year and the best the Kyota protocols can accomplish is to save about 1 bear per year at enormous cost. It got resounding applause.
Better living through larger, more expensive, intrusive, oppressive, global government, sponsored by the "libertarians" at Reason magazine.
"As far as I'm concerned, any problem that isn't a problem for me personally is no problem at all" ~gilbert
you sir, are a dick. -
Sometimes "let's have no policy" isn't politically feasible. When that's the case, it's better to let your philosophy guide your policy, rather than simply sit out of the game.
We can allow environmental hysteria to drive governments toward policies that will impoverish the world, or we can try to guide government towards policies--like fighting malaria--that are a fraction of that cost and are actually likely to unleash "the ultimate resource" of human capital in the Third World. Given that government is going to do something whether I sit out or not, I know which course I'd prefer. -
Jesus, I'm all for helping the oppressed people throughout the planet, but almost all of these solutions involve robbing me at gunpoint to pay for them. How about we get government out of the way so people like Bill Gates can cure Malaria already. Or how about we all pool our money voluntarily to form a Freedom Brigade to stop genocide. We use to do this, back in the day, if you remember the Greek War of Independence. Also, I second the person who saw the False Dichotomy fallacy in these proposals.
When did this say that the $75 billion comes from first world governments? and what's so terrible about having people lay out solutions for pressing world problems? Don't you think Bill Gates might find this interesting?
@Jorgen asked:
When did this say that the $75 billion comes from first world governments?
Well, it's stated plainly in the header:
"the Copenhagen Consensus Project, which seeks to prioritize global policy decisions" (emphasis mine) -
Wouldn't the libertarian position be to spend zero dollars on all of this stuff, because free markets will fix it all magically?
"Wouldn't the libertarian position be to spend zero dollars on all of this stuff, because free markets will fix it all magically?"
I don't presume to speak for all libertarians, but I'll attempt at a Classical Liberal explanation. Let people spend money and form voluntary contracts as they wish. If there's a serious problem, people will spend money to fix it. If a government steps in to solve a "big problem", it will either screw it up, be incredibly wasteful in fixing it, or it will be too little and too late. Also keep in mind that if the government decides to fix something, it extracts funds from the populace under threat of violence. Also, some things aren't worth fixing and should be allowed to fail. This doesn't apply to world hunger, but it does apply to people living in areas that are prone to natural disasters. Never underestimate humanity's ability to persevere in dire circumstances. -
Can you actually name anyone (libertarian or otherwise) who actually believes that free markets work magically? -
Cut-and-pasted from the blog's recent posts list:
Help Set "The Copenhagen Consensus"!
Vote now to tell policymakers what global problems should be tacked first.
--Bjorn Lomborg
Does Fashionable Beat Rational When It Comes to Solving the World's Biggest Problems?
-- Ron Bailey
Fixing the world's problems? $ 75 Billion.
Using American Idol as a blueprint for world governance? A few bucks.
Making Bjorn Lomborg look like a tool? Priceless.
"Can you actually name anyone (libertarian or otherwise) who actually believes that free markets work magically?"
Well there are some libertarians for whom the answer to every single problem mentioned is "more free markets." Global warming, discrimination, poverty, hunger, health care quality and coverage, homelessness, etc., ...Just have more free markets! Anything that is such an all purpose solution to "everything" seems a bit, well, magical to non-believers... -
Nothing quite spells futility like an internet poll.
World's Number One Problem
Pronounced lack of rise n' shine blowjobs. -
I don't know. I think I need to tour Sierra Leone, get a feel for things.
How come I don't see "Bears!" as one of the options. That clearly should be #1...
#1 problem: The existence of government. Solution? Get rid of government.
Anarchists: the only people more bankrupt of legitimate political theory than myself.
Come on everybody, rock the vote! When's the last time you could decide on the fate of billions of world's downtrodden at the click of a button?
Space colonies are the answer to most of those problems. I don't see any space colonies being offered by Al Gore.
Just got a look at the Human Development Index map. Very, very interesting. esp. Haiti, Mongolia, India, Papua New Guinea and Gabon.
Shocked to see these good folks didn't include my vote--overpopulation. Hand out the condoms, with instructive illustrations if necessary, along with all the aid and weapons distribution.
why not just put that RU486 medicine in the water supply for a couple decades? That would be much more efficient.

Graduation rate data not available for this college.
The life of a college student is awesome. But it's also expensive. Every year you spend at college costs money.
If saving money is important, look for a college that fits you well and provides the support you need to finish your degree on-time.
It's okay to change majors, repeat a class to improve your grade, or take some extra classes that interest you. But it's going to cost you. Ask colleges what support they offer to help you plot a course to graduating on time.

January 11, 2013 - BOSTON, MA - The Boston Cannons of Major League Lacrosse (MLL), the premier professional outdoor lacrosse league, selected eight players in the 2013 MLL Collegiate Draft, beginning with Canadian Cameron Flint, a midfielder at the University of Denver. Flint finished the 2012 season with 16 goals, 7 assists and 30 ground balls in all 14 games for the Pioneers and was named All-ECAC and an All-America Honorable Mention.
Three picks later at #9 (obtained in a 2012 trade with Ohio), the Cannons selected long stick midfielder Scott Ratliff out of Loyola, an All-Tournament Team selection when the Greyhounds won their first-ever NCAA championship in 2012. With the next pick in the second round, 14th overall, the Cannons landed UMass attackman Will Manny.
"As always with the collegiate draft, we were looking for players who are athletic on the field and can complement our offense," said Cannons head coach Steve Duffy. "We believe our first three picks will be able to come in and make an immediate impact this season."
In the fourth round the team added another midfielder, Lee Coppersmith of Johns Hopkins. The Cannons took the first defender, and first local product, when they selected Jake Smith of UMass, a Medfield, MA native with the 30th pick. The Cannons rounded out their 2013 draft class with David DiMaria, attack, Lehigh; Brendan Buckley, defense, Army; and Quinn Cully, midfield, Notre Dame, from Duxbury, MA.
"I'm very pleased with the players we were able to draft tonight," said Cannons General Manager Kevin Barney. "My coaching staff did a tremendous job of scouting and preparing for tonight, allowing us to draft players that will immediately make us a better team."
During the draft, MLL commissioner Dave Gross also announced that the 2013 Championship Weekend will be held at PPL Park in Philadelphia on August 24 & 25.
Boston Cannons 2013 Collegiate Draft Results
1. (6th Overall): Cameron Flint, midfield, Denver

"Not only is my main color for my wedding navy, but we are having our rehearsal dinner at a restaurant called Firefly. These invitations could not have been more perfect. We were thrilled with the design and the execution, and we have received nothing but compliments from our guests. I would certainly recommend these to others!"
"The invitations turned out great, really liked the paper and printing. Received the order quicker than expected. Have had several comments from guests regarding how cute they turned out. The website made personalization very simple. Will definately check with WPD next time I need invitations or printed items. Thanks"
"We love how these cards turned out! Changed the teal text and back of the card to a green color to match our photo a bit better. Really easy to request the personalized colors and approve. Arrived a lot sooner than expected and we had them delivered to Costco."

The 2010 Eroica Riesling exudes mandarin orange and sweet lime aromas and flavors with subtle mineral notes. The mouth-watering acidity is beautifully balanced by flavorful Washington Riesling fruit. After a more than a decade we have truly found our "Eroica style," striving for beautiful bright fruit with crisp acidity and enhanced mineralilty
"Eroica has put on racing stripes for the 2010 - a lean vintage with scents of lime and lemon, revealing a mineral spine from the aroma straight through to the finish. After a day the structure lengthens a bit and the flavors relax into lemon from lime, but the wine still has plenty of drive. Built for the cellar." 93 Points Wine & Spirits
"Eroica has a proven ability to age; in fact it needs at least a half decade in the cellar to show its real strengths. Tight and packed with primary fruit flavors of lime and peach, this beautifully proportioned wine has perceptible sweetness but plenty of natural acidity. Lively and fresh today, but best given a few more years in the cellar. Cellar Selection" 92 Points Wine Enthusiast
"The 2010 Eroica Riesling had just been bottled when I tasted it. It displays similar aromatics but with more elevated acidity, a characteristic of the vintage that provides considerable refreshment in the finish." 91 Points The Wine Advocate
"Light and appealing for its delicate pear and peach flavors, with hints of mineral and chalk, dancing lightly through the open-weave, off-dry finish." 90 Points Wine Spectator
Launched in 1999, Eroica is a labor of love for two of the world's great Riesling producers. One from the Old World, Dr. Loosen estate of Germany, and the other from the New World, Chateau Ste.
