MORGANTOWN, W.Va. -- Law enforcement officers know what to do when they find suffering children in the home of a drug suspect: Call Child Protective Services. But what about when they find an empty car seat, a pacifier or a stuffed animal in a vehicle that's become a mobile meth lab?
In Putnam County, sheriff's deputies no longer need to agonize over whether to call child-welfare workers in the middle of the night based solely on suspicion of a threat.
Starting Thursday, the department will enter any drug-related cases where a child's safety could be compromised into the new Drug Endangered Child Tracking System.
Officers have always been required to report suspected child abuse and neglect, said Sheriff Steve Deweese, but without the tracking system, there had been no formal way to share suspicions and concerns directly with child-welfare workers.
"We just didn't input the data to make a black-and-white document," he said Wednesday, "and in law enforcement, if it's not on paper, it didn't happen."
The State Police announced in May it was creating the database to help case workers and to help ensure that at-risk children don't fall through the cracks of overburdened criminal justice and child-welfare systems. Officers will enter every felony drug arrest, and child-welfare workers can log in to look for cases that may not already be on their radar.
The system is not accessible to the public.
Sara Whitney, an investigator in the Putnam County prosecutor's office, said it doesn't replace traditional mandatory reporting but is "just another avenue to share information."
"Law enforcement does a great job of identifying kids - if they're there. But sometimes, you may not know there are children involved," she said. "A lot of these kids come and go from relatives or neighbors, and it may be that when law enforcement interacts with the parents, they are somewhere else.
"By including all felony arrests," Whitney said, "that's going to give CPS a heads up that, 'Hey, we've arrested Mom or Dad' or whatever."

Matt's mechanical and boating skills were in high demand in this fishing and boating state, and his work took him from Anchorage to Seward, Cook Inlet to the North Slope, and from the interior to the coast. Matt has spent more than 28 years boating in the Alaskan waters in tiny, open skiffs to 100' boats, including doing his time with Alaska's commercial fisheries. He holds a USCG 200 ton Master License, is State Park permitted, and is a licensed game transporter. A qualified Alaska naturalist, Matt will have you enthralled with his Alaskan stories and wealth of knowledge.
Heidi Cline was born and raised in Durban, South Africa, and has worked amongst birds all her life, from managing and designing bird parks, including Treehaven Waterfowl Trust (the largest collection of waterfowl in the world), to owning her own birds, to curating the seabird collection at the Alaska SeaLife Center, to working on Endangered Species breeding and research programs such as the African Wattled Cranes and Alaska's Steller's eiders. After a birding trip to Alaska in 2000, Heidi fell in love with Alaska and immigrated here in 2002. Heidi holds a USCG 200 ton Master License, has a Master's degree in Ornithology, has a passion for all wildlife and photography, and will take care of all your travel needs and logistics.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month
Every week, 100 women in Washington State are diagnosed with breast cancer. October is breast cancer awareness month. Komen Puget Sound and AM 880 KIXI Radio want to make you aware of ways you can take action and increase your chances for surviving this disease.
First, get screened. If you are 40 years old or older, have a mammogram. Early detection is the key to survival. Second, know what is normal for you. See your health provider right away if you notice a lump, swelling, changes in breast size or a new pain in one spot that does not go away. And finally, live a healthy lifestyle. Maintain a healthy weight. Add exercise to your routine. Limit your use of alcohol. And, since we live in the Northwest, consult your doctor to make sure you are maintaining a normal level of vitamin D.

Abstract: Alkynylphosphines or their borane complexes are available either through C–P bond forming reactions or through modification of the phosphorus or the alkynyl function of various alkynyl phosphorus derivatives. The latter strategy, and in particular the one involving phosphoryl reduction by alanes or silanes, is the method of choice for preparing primary and secondary alkynylphosphines, while the former strategy is usually employed for the synthesis of tertiary alkynylphosphines or their borane complexes. The classical C–P bond forming methods rely on the reaction between halophosphines or their borane complexes with terminal acetylenes in the presence of a stoichiometric amount of organometallic bases, which precludes the access to alkynylphosphines bearing sensitive functional groups. In less than a decade, efficient catalytic procedures, mostly involving copper complexes and either an electrophilic or a nucleophilic phosphorus reagent, have emerged. By proceeding under mild conditions, these new methods have allowed a significant broadening of the substituent scope and structure complexity.
Keywords: organophosphorus chemistry; phosphines; phosphine-boranes; homogeneous catalysis

For a while now, I've been putting together some new songs for my third record. To me, writing songs is serious business as they each have a piece of me within their notes and lyrics. I was just talking with Sally Browder, the producer of my second record, Trip To Horizon a few days ago and we were having a blast coming up with ideas for the direction this record will take. I am so inspired right now by the White Stripes and Jack White's new solo record, Blunderbuss. There is a simple, honest, raw feel, with a touch of punk to the writing and how these records are produced. It really allows you to understand where he is coming from as a writer. I just love the vocal feel and the inspired guitar sounds in all their music.
After spending some time with Sally discussing the approach for this record, she suggested doing a more acoustic, singer-songwriter type of project so that the songs can be really stripped down and simple, but still have an edge and unpredictability that will keep them driving. That really fits with some of my current writing influences like Jack White and Lucinda Williams. By focusing on the simplicity of the songs, we will be able to let the songs breathe and still let 'em rock. It's gonna be fun to see what happens.

Ruins of Loropéni (Burkina Faso) inscribed on UNESCO's World Heritage List
Burkina Faso joined the rank of countries that have World Heritage properties on their territory with the inscription of the Ruins of Loropéni on UNESCO's List on Friday.
The 11,130m2 property, the first to be inscribed in the country, with its imposing stone walls is the best preserved of ten fortresses in the Lobi area and is part of a larger group of 100 stone enclosures that bear testimony to the power of the trans-Saharan gold trade. Situated near the borders of Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana and Togo, the ruins have recently been shown to be at least 1,000 years old. The settlement was occupied by the Lohron or Koulango peoples, who controlled the extraction and transformation of gold in the region when it reached its apogee from the 14thto the 17th century. Much mystery surrounds this site large parts of which have yet to be excavated. The settlement seems to have been abandoned during some periods during its long history. The property which was finally deserted in the early 19th century is expected to yield much more information.
The World Heritage Committee meeting in Seville for its 33rd session, chaired by María Jesús San Segundo, Ambassador and Permanent Delegate of Spain to UNESCO, will continue inscribing sites and examining the state of properties already inscribed over coming days. It remains in session until 30 June.

Summary: So-called linear codes create error-correction bits by combining the data bits linearly. Topics discussed include generator matrices and the Hamming distance.
Note: You are viewing an old version of this document. The latest version is available here.
So-called linear codes create error-correction bits by combining the data bits linearly. The phrase "linear combination" means here single-bit binary arithmetic.
For example, let's consider the specific (3, 1) error correction
code described by the following coding table and,
more concisely, by the succeeding matrix expression.
The length-
As we consider other block codes, the simple idea of the decoder
amounting to a simple majority count of the bits in the received
data block won't generalize easily. We nees a broader biew that
takes into acount the distance between
codewords. A length-
Show that adding the error vector col[1,0,...,0] to a codeword flips the codeword's leading bit and leaves the rest unaffected.
In binary arithmetic (see Figure 1), adding 0 to a binary value results in that binary value while adding 1 results in the opposite binary value.
The probability of one bit being flipped anywhere in a codeword
Figure |
To perform decoding when errors occur, we want to find the codeword (one of the filled circles in Fig.3) that has the highest probability of occurring: the one closest to the one received. Note that if a dataword lies a distance of 1 from two codewords, it is impossible to determine which codeword was actually sent. This criterion means that if any two codewords two bits apart, then the code cannot correct the channel-induced error. Thus, to have a code that can correct all single-bit errors, codewords must have a minimum separation of three. Our repetition code has this property.
Does any error-correcting code reduce communication errors when
introducing code bits increase the probability that bits will
arrive in error? The answer is yes. To understand channel
coding, we need to develop first a general framework for channel
coding, and discover what it takes for a code to be maximally
efficient: Correct as many errors as possible using the fewest
error correction bits as possible (making the efficiency
In this (7,4) code,
Error correction amounts to searching for the codeword
Suppose we want a channel code to have an error-correction capability of

Public library board readies for municipal budget cuts
As they await a final number, members of the Montclair Public Library Board of Trustees hope this figure is not $3.08 million.
The 2010 Municipal Budget allocates $3.08 million for the library, which includes a Main Branch at 50 South Fullerton Ave., and a smaller branch at 185 Bellevue Ave.
The allocation is $700,000 less than what the municipality provided to the library the previous year.
Though the Township Council has not adopted the budget, the library has cut staff and hours in anticipation of reduced municipal funding.
The Main Branch of the library is shut on Mondays.
The smaller branch is open only on Mondays.
Reductions thus far only address a fraction of the proposed cut, said Library Director David Hinkley.
"These are just the initial steps," Hinkley warned this past Monday, May 17, during a library board meeting. "The full implementation of the manager's budget would be catastrophic."
Township Manager Marc D. Dashield drafted the 2010 municipal budget, which was approved in April by the council.
After the final budget is adopted, library trustees anticipate continued discussions on cost-cutting.

Hi everyone,
This is my first post here. I'm puzzled by the problem of interest. It seems to me that since money comes about through the creation of debt plus interest, there is always a greater amount of debt in the system than there is money. This creates an organic need in the system for defaults, and gives excessive power to the holders of money, not because they are productive, but simply because they hold money. As a system founded on this basis expands, it inevitably creates an unequal distribution of wealth. I raised these concerns to Tom Woods and he recommended this article by Robert P. Murphy - http://mises.org/daily/4569 .
In the article, he states that "my modest point in this article was to correct the widespread misconception that in a system of 'debt-based money,' further rounds of inflation are mathematically necessary to avoid default on previous loans. In general, this simply isn't true, because the bankers can spend their interest payments on real goods and services, thereby returning that money to the public, which can then use it again for further debt payments." But isn't it extremely unlikely that bankers would spend 100% of their interest payments back into the economy? They are more likely to save a large amount, or re-invest in some interest-bearing asset. So this doesn't really address the basic problem. Am I missing something here?
Thanks for your help,
That's an interesting point. So how would you see this playing out? Our natural resources and skills/human capital would be unchanged, so how would this change of mindset affect society? Do you imagine that the overall standard of living would drop in a sound money system due to this scarcity no longer being masked by artificial credit creation?
Temporarily, yes, there would have to be a dramatic reduction in standard-of-living as credit contracts and businesses, households and, yes, even the government, are forced to balance their budgets. This will lead to a cascade of bankruptcies, defaults, etc. We actually agree with the Keynesians on this. Where we disagree is on their claim to be able to indefinitely defer the Day of Reckoning. It's coming sooner or later and the sooner the better. The longer we defer it, the more out-of-balance the system will become.
Trying to wrap my head around the psychology of it. I'm always amazed when people talk about a "crisis of confidence" as if our economy was more about psychology than anything concrete. But in our current system, if this confidence stalls for even a moment, the whole thing comes crashing down.
Well, it is all about confidence ... because it's a con game. One of FDR's most famous quotes, "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself", is a reference precisely to this fact. If the public loses confidence in the fractional reserve system, it will collapse. The FRB system can withstand a run on one or even a handful of banks. But if everybody loses confidence in the whole damn thing, the gig is up. The value of the dollar will begin to collapse to zero and the entire house of cards comes crashing down.
Austrians consider a precipitous loss of confidence every bit as much of a nightmare scenario as Keynesians do... it's something that we should not allow to happen. However, following the Keynesian prescriptions for the economy is a kind of brinkmanship with the confidence of the public. These bailouts and quantitative easings have significantly eroded public confidence in the dollar far more than any speech or book by Ron Paul ever could have. The correct solution is to end the legal tender monopoly and repeal the capital gains tax on monetary commodities (gold, silver, platinum, etc.) This will force the Federal Reserve to compete with private money producers.
This would strengthen confidence in the US dollar even as the public is given the option to move out of the dollar to something else... the reason is taht the Fed would have no choice but to rein in the inflation in order to compete with private money producers. In the long run, we believe that this would result in a gradual shift away from fiat money and back to sound money but it wouldn't happen overnight.
Clayton -
"Temporarily, yes, there would have to be a dramatic reduction in standard-of-living as credit contracts and businesses, households and, yes, even the government, are forced to balance their budgets. This will lead to a cascade of bankruptcies, defaults, etc. We actually agree with the Keynesians on this. Where we disagree is on their claim to be able to indefinitely defer the Day of Reckoning. It's coming sooner or later and the sooner the better. The longer we defer it, the more out-of-balance the system will become."
But here you are referring to a scenario where we suddenly switched to a system of only sound money, right? Whereas if we repealed the legal tender laws and legalized competition, then the transition could take place more gradually and peacefully?
-Joe-:So why do you think there is such strong resistance to sound money? Among those who have access to the cheap money the reason is obvious, but what about everyone else? How did mainstream economists become so clueless? Are they all just bought and paid for by the establishment - i.e. speaking fees, consulting fees, etc.
That's a large part of it. It's not unlike the global warming industry. When your paycheck is signed by an organization that not only has a preferred conclusion for you to reach, but also has the power of force behind it, it's a lot easier to just fall in line.
But another large part of the resistance is where their knowledge is coming from. Someone once said: "When government controls the schools, don't be surprised when everyone comes out thinking the government is the solution to everything." So of course there is an ever-present perpetuation of the idea that government is not only proper, but necessary. And when you're forced — children are compelled to go to school, remember...and everyone is already paying considerable taxes to support the government schools, so few parents can afford to homeschool them or send them to non-government schools — into institutions at an early age, and forced to remain there not only through your formative years, but for a good deal of your life, it's not surprising that most people become indoctrinated.
After a while, it becomes difficult to even wrap your head around the idea of a world without the government being involved in so many things. I actually had a conversation with a grown man, who served in the Navy and has children of his own, about how people would be educated without government-run schools. He literally could not get it. He's not retarded (or at least, I don't think he is). But his question kept going back to "how the fuck do you expect private schools to provide education to every single child? There aren't near enough private schools! How do you expect America to compete in an international marketplace without educating our children?"
I'm not kidding. I'm not exaggerating. That was literally his question, and he was not joking. I tried multiple times, multiple ways to explain that all the school buildings are there, all the teachers are there, all the books are there...it just wouldn't be run by government. And he literally could not get it. The closest he got was claiming that he couldn't afford private school, so where would his kids go? Never underestimate the power of indoctrination.
And of course, that leads to a different reason people don't get it...inertia. When people become so indoctrinated that they can't even begin to understand how something as simple schooling would exist if the government didn't put a gun to everyone's head and force them to pay for it and send their children to it, obviously they're not going to be able to teach children anything else either...so people grow up in a world where not only the lie is taught, but it's taught from people who don't even know it's a lie. Multiply that out a few generations and these are the people we're dealing with now. These are the people running government and running our institutions and winning Nobel Prizes.
And you may have heard the phrase "One has to belong to the intelligentsia to believe things like that: no ordinary man could be such a fool." That was George Orwell. Ironically it was Bertrand Russell (of all people) who said something simliar: "This is one of those views which are so absurd that only very learned men could possibly adopt them."
They were both touching on a very important point about how insane ideas even get considered. It's very counterintuitive, and most people don't realize it, but you really do have to be quite smart to deeply believe things that are really stupid. I think it has to do with needing to have the mental capacity to be able to perform the gymnastics necessary to make things work...in your head. Most people can't do that. The problem is most people are so dumb that they just defer to "their betters" in academia and government and go along with whatever they say...which is obviously incredibly stupid in its own right, and quite dangerous. But remember, when you're indoctrinated to believe the government is there to "take care of you", and that officials are to be revered and respected and praised, and that they are smarter and wiser than you, and they have armies of people who are even smarter and wiser than they are advising them, it's quite easy to not only believe what they say, but stand behind it and actually attack those who would question it.
It's tough to see here in the U.S., since you're used to it...and since you can't really recognize it, it's a little hard to believe...but just watch a documentary or two on North Korea. See indoctrination existing and operating in one of its purest forms, here, now, in 2011. That will really help. And possibly scare the crap out of you.
Is there a worry that lending would get too tight under a sound money system, and economic growth would stagnate?
I honestly don't even think it goes that far. I wish it were that thought out, but I really get the impression that they think sound money is just "an old idea" and that "this is the 21st century" and "today's economy" is just too advanced, and that we need something more sophisticated. Like one Yale Professor recently said "money can't manage itself". People just see so many things around them that have changed, that they naturally believe everything else has to change too...even laws of economics. It would be nice if they actually realized the truth but simply didn't want to admit it like Autolykos suggests, but I'm doubtful it's that advanced. I'm really led to believe a lot (if not most) of these guys truly don't get it.
And again, it certainly doesn't help that everyone around you, from teachers, to media personnel, to academics, to your all-knowing government, are saying the same thing. Like this idiot who thinks that economic growth is determined and dependent upon the size of the money supply (i.e. if the money supply doesn't grow, economic advancement cannot occur. Seriously. Watch it. O'Reilly the host is even too ignorant to even begin to argue with him.)
And most people aren't even exposed to other ideas. People have never even heard of anything else. It's all just assumed as a given. And you have to remember, most people are pretty dumb, as well as not very knowledgeable...about anything. They don't take the time to study or look into anything on their own. So the only things they might know is something they heard in their government school. But that's not everyone. There are smart people who do look into things and study. People who get doctoral degrees specifically in the field, for crying out loud. And it was tough for me to understand for a while, how people who were so smart, and spend all their time studying these things could believe such nonsense...but you come to realize all their time is spent in dark, dank computer labs running regressions and working complex models buried in high level math, which — according to one of the most recent economic Nobel Laureates — "are abstractions that make very simple assumptions that aren't realistic." And all the time they're not doing that, they're either being indoctrinated or reminded how smart they are.
I talked a little about this here, and relayed a story about someone in this forum who gave one of F.A. Hayek's works to an economics PhD graduate who ended up coming back and saying "I wish they had taught us some of this stuff." (Hayek was also a Nobel Laureate, by the way, and in his day was, along with John Maynard Keynes, one of the two most prominent economists in the world. So it's a little tough to say he's "too obscure.") But the fact is, they aren't taught anything about capital theory or a realistic time structure of interest rates. When your entire higher level education, (and after that, your entire career) is essentially nothing more than the mathematization of government regulation, it's quite easy to get so lost in the maze of trying to figure out exactly how much regulation should be in how many sectors, and how it should be implemented, and when, and where, and how each tweak affects what...that you never even think to consider whether there should be the regulation in the first place. Again, it's just a given. Not only that, but you've just spent 8 years of your life, and literally tens of thousands of dollars learning this crap...so it's a lot harder to consider the idea that it was all essentially for nothing. The system couldn't be that screwed up, could it?
And finally, there's also a small presence, (even if subconscious), of knowing where your paychecks come from. Not like the "remember who you're working for" kind of thing mentioned earlier, but more of a self-preservation instinct. Like the accountant who, on some level realizes that if the tax code gets any simpler, his skills are no longer necessary...so he argues against something like a flat tax or a Fair Tax. And it's not like he's even necessarily thinking about himself consciously...It's possible he completely believes the current system is better because it gives people like his clients (who are smart enough to hire him) the ability to avoid a lot of taxes that others have to pay. But of course in reality, in the grand scheme, the world is poorer in both situations...from the horrific policies that these economists advocate, and from the system of theft that makes "tax professionals" necessary.
In terms of Lehman not being bailed out - I wouldn't be surprised if that had something to do with Goldman's political influence.
Oh you don't even know the half of it.
-Joe-:But here you are referring to a scenario where we suddenly switched to a system of only sound money, right? Whereas if we repealed the legal tender laws and legalized competition, then the transition could take place more gradually and peacefully?
Hmm meant to quote your sentence "I think the resistance to sound money concerns people wanting to have their cake and eat it too. In other words, sound money would reveal to them that things are actually scarcer in many ways than they want to believe." at the beginning of my last post, didn't work. How do you quote from someone's msg in your post, I can't figure it out. I hit reply on that person's post but that didnt work.

At the risk of also sounding like an idiot... isn't it true that in terms of pure numbers (GDP), there actually would be less growth in a sound money system, because of the lack of easy credit. The problem is that people are conditioned to think of economic health only in terms of GDP. So as long as the numbers rise, they are satisfied.
One important thing to note about GDP is that it does not take into account broken windows.

Bingo. See here and here.
The concern I have about the principles we've been discussing is that I don't think they would work well unless implemented in full. For example, the Austrian view seems to be that government regulation is bad, period. So what happens if Ron Paul gets elected, and due to an uncooperative Congress is unable to end the fed - but our Wall St.-funded Congress does agree that all regulations on Wall Street should be repealed. So then we'd still have the same easy-money madness we have now, except Wall St. would be even freer to exploit the casino economy. In my opinion that would be a whole lot worse than what we have now.
That's very perceptive. You're much quicker than most. Yes there is some danger in that, but it's not very probable. I actually think competing currencies would be legalized before all financial regulations would be repealed. The only way financial regs would disappear would be if the public made it politically profitable to remove them. And I think the only way that would happen is if they were getting in the way of enough people, and enough people were confident that other regulations (such as the regulation of the market itself) would be more effective and/or lead to better conditions.
Ultimately I think it will take the death of the dollar before you can even seriously talk about ending the Fed entirely, and even then it will be a tough going, because there will of course be plenty of push to maintain that kind of monopoly power, and there will be plenty of public outcry for our wise overlords to bring "stability, confidence, and strength" to the markets again. (As if.) And the powers that be will be waiting in the wings, more than happy to make that arrangement.
The key will be a large enough coalition that understands enough about the business cycle to be there with the real answers when that happens. And the more people who hear about it beforehand, the better...for even if they don't become one of the ones who understands it by the time it happens, they'll be that much more willing to listen to someone who told them it was coming when it actually does. And that someone could easily be you or me. "The public" may not "remember"...but "people" will. And that means your friends, your neighbors, and your co-workers. People you talk to every day. People you could easily plant seeds with. And that's why Ron Paul is so important. For one thing, the number of people he has already influenced to become educated is incalculable. He has already done more than any man in modern history to rally people to the cause of liberty and engage them to educate themselves...and he's done it all while being 1 of 535 representatives in Congress, officially representing a small coastal district in Texas...being mocked, laughed at, ignored, and attacked. Imagine what he could do as President.
That's the thing I think a lot of people don't realize (or don't want to admit). Even some liberty-minded individuals like to try to rain on Paul's parade and claim there's really nothing he could do as President, he'd still have a Congress to deal with, blah blah blah. Some I think it's because they truly don't get it, others I think because they have a need to be contrarian and rag on people, and still others because they're narcissistic pricks who don't know how to constructively deal with their jealousy. Not only do I not think these people have a full appreciation for the power of the Executive Branch (especially in the hands of someone who is a voluntarist), but I also don't believe they fully see the big picture. Most people still don't even know who Ron Paul is other than possibly "that kooky Republican guy who wants to end the wars". And that's only if they're lucky. The minute that guy wins even the R nomination...let alone the Presidency...the whole game changes. Everything he says automatically becomes infinitely more legitimate, and heard by 100 times more people. The impact someone like that could have, not only on policy in a bully-pulpit sort of way, but on public opinion in a leader/teacher sort of way, is unimaginable.
He talks about how he's not just trying to win an election, he's trying to change the course of history. I guarantee you, if that man becomes President, that's exactly what would happen. And not because of anything he'll do in government. He won't pass some law that will redefine the political system. He won't eliminate some department that history will call "the repeal that changed everything". He will affect change in the greatest, most important way possible...in the minds of people. Just imagine 4 whole years of that man talking...with the Presidential Seal hanging behind him. And as if that wasn't enough, times are going to get tougher...probably as tough as they've ever been, relatively. People will be ready, more than ever, to listen. You thought people were scared, hurting, ready for change, and looking for a leader with Obama...just wait.
If that wouldn't change history, nothing would.
John James:Not only do I not think these people have a full appreciation for the power of the Executive Branch (especially in the hands of someone who is a voluntarist), but I also don't believe they fully see the big picture.
That was interesting to see the Ron Paul video about voluntaryism. Having seen that, his positions make a lot more sense. I had always wondered, for example, about him invoking private property rights to deal with environmental problems - I had never heard anyone else deal with it in that way. I'm personally not anywhere near being a voluntaryist, but I don't see why we couldn't have some sort of opt-out system, where those who wish to live without taxation/government services are allowed to do so. I think we need to have a 100% transparent tax system where it is absolutely clear where every dollar goes, rather than just giving a lump sum and having government distribute it in secret. Then, those who wish to opt out of the tax system can do so, and they will not receive those associated services. If they wish to opt out of some services and not others, that would be fine as well. It would be a simple matter of accounting. The all-or-nothing idea is what strikes me as problematic. Certainly a majority could agree on that. If enough people learn about the problems of Fed, money printing, etc. I definitely think a majority would come to see that clearly as well. But I don't think we're anywhere near the total abolition of government, and personally I wouldn't want to live in a society like that. But I don't see why both sides can't get what they want without imposing on the other.
Then, those who wish to opt out of the tax system can do so, and they will not receive those associated services.
It also makes sense to remove the monopoly the government has on providing these services, right? Otherwise, what good is ability to opt out?
And when you agree to remove this monopoly - presto, there is NO government! It's just another service provider on the market!
a 100% transparent tax system
That'll never happen. The tax system must be opaque because its true purpose (to take as much as possible from as many as possible) must be concealed.
Shhhh, don't scare off the new guy.

Clayton: a 100% transparent tax system That'll never happen. The tax system must be opaque because its true purpose (to take as much as possible from as many as possible) must be concealed. Clayton -
The books of a company are not 100% transparent either, but that doesnt mean they can't provide a valid service. All i mean is that when someone pays taxes, there would be a list of services that they are buying into, and those that they don't want or would rather get elsewhere they are free to do so.

The Northern Rock bank was nationalised in 2008 following its near collapse at the onset of the global credit crunch. The government subsequently split the bank into two:
Northern Rock plc with good assets, and Northern Rock (Asset Management), into which was placed its bad debt.
UK government stupidity Level 2
Government had injected £1.4bn of taxpayers money into Northern Rock plc.
UK government stupidity Level 3
Northern Rock plc is being sold to Virgin Money for £747m. Virgin Money was "expected" to pay an additional £50m within six months, and then a further £150m.
So Northern Rock plc will be rebranded as Virgin Money, which has pledged no compulsory job cuts for three years.
UK government stupidity Level 4
Northern Rock (Asset Management), whit its bad debt, left to taxpayers to swallow and it still owes the Treasury £21bn. The government said it had no plans to sell Northern Rock (Asset Management).
UK government stupidity Level 5
Chancellor George Osborne said: "The sale of Northern Rock to Virgin Money is an important first step in getting the British taxpayer out of the business of owning banks. "It represents value for money, will increase choice on the High Street for customers, and safeguards jobs in the North East."
UK government stupidity above any Level
George Osborne appointed Chancellor of the Exchequer of the United Kingdom, on the basis of lifetime experience in the world of finances:
1) Osborne's first job was entering the names of people who had died in London into a National Health Service computer.
2) He also briefly worked for Selfridges, counting and re-folding towels.
3) And that is about it.
Do not try this at home, in public or to yourself unless you are Financial Genius.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. - Senate President Jeff Kessler said he would not move the Employment and Housing Non-Discrimination Act in the Senate after a similar bill faltered in the House of Delegates.
The House bill's lead sponsor, Delegate Stephen Skinner, D-Jefferson, requested Wednesday the legislation not be taken up in committee. Skinner said there was not enough support to pass the bill as-is, and was worried lawmakers would try to water it down.
Similar versions of the bill, which would protect people who are gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender from discrimination in housing and employment, have passed the Senate before. But Kessler, a longtime supporter of the legislation, said there is no point in passing it again this year if the House would only kill it.
"I would assume if we sent it over there it would meet the same fate," he said.

In a dense forest near Goode in Bedford County, a 14-year-old girl is running away from her kidnapper.
The dramatic scene is a crucial part of "Finding Faith," a movie about the danger of Internet predators.
"People have got to be woken up to what's going on," said actor Erik Estrada, who plays Bedford County Sheriff Mike Brown in a story based on actual crimes.
"The sexual predator is in your living room," said Estrada, "He's on your computer. He's on your smart phone."
The film shows how a girl from a good home gets mixed up with a man she meets online.
Jamie Watson saw this happen many times in real life. He's a professional actor now, but he used to investigate Internet crimes at the Bedford County Sheriff's Office.
"To be able to come back in as an actor, and still my work be toward education, makes it an honor to be a part of this," Watson said.
While some of the actors and crew members are professionals, many are volunteers who live here in the area.
Stephanie Bettcher is a student at Liberty University. She's playing "Faith," the girl who gets kidnapped.
The role has opened her eyes to Internet sex crimes.
"Being a part of a film that gets that message out is important to me, and because it's a faith-based film, we can share Christ's love through it, and spread that message as well," said Bettcher.
The film is being produced by the "Safe Surfin' Foundation," in an effort to teach families how to avoid Internet predators.
Everyone involved hopes that message will save lives, when "Finding Faith" hits theaters next year.

A Fanciful Idea Made Practical
by Krista Tippett, host
"Listening Generously" is one of my favorite shows. As is often the case, I hear Rachel Naomi Remen differently with the passage of time. I'm also struck right now by the title we gave this conversation with her — "Listening Generously." The longer I do this work, the more aware I am of listening as a discipline and vocation — and something I do with and for all of you. This is a great privilege, and a gift.
And listening to Rachel Naomi Remen is nourishing. She is not a religious figure per se, rather a kind of quiet modern-day mystic. Her wisdom is somewhat countercultural. Living well, she says, is not about eradicating our losses, wounds, and weaknesses. It is about understanding how they continually complete our identity and equip us to help others. As a doctor, she's seen time and again how even deep pathologies and failures become the source of unsuspected strengths. She believes that however difficult our lives become or how fraught our choices, most of us never lose our capacity to be whole human beings. We may forget that potential in ourselves, yet it can reappear full-blown in times of crisis. The hope that her stories engender is itself a healing experience.
I've been ever after changed by her telling of a formative story of hope. On her fourth birthday, her grandfather, an Orthodox rabbi and a student of the Jewish mystical tradition of Kabbalah, taught her about "the birthday of the world," as he called it: In the beginning, the world was made of light. But by some accident, the light was scattered, and it lodged as countless sparks inside every aspect of creation. The highest human calling is to look for this original light from where we sit, to point to it and gather it up and in so doing to repair the world, tikkun olam.
This might sound like an idealistic and fanciful idea. But Rachel Naomi Remen calls it an important and empowering image. It insists that each one of us, flawed and inadequate as we may feel, has exactly what's needed to help repair the part of the world that we can see and touch. This story is a practical tool — the kind of practical tool religious traditions carry forward in time — for a world longing to address images of suffering that can otherwise overwhelm us.
The following passage from Rachel Naomi Remen's Kitchen Table Wisdom was written with physicians in mind. But it holds a resonant caution and challenge for all of us, I think, as we struggle to face yet not be overwhelmed or numbed by the pain and suffering that are a fact of human existence near and far.
"The expectation that we can be immersed in suffering and loss daily and not be touched by it is as unrealistic as expecting to be able to walk through water without getting wet. This sort of denial is no small matter. The way we deal with loss shapes our capacity to be present to life more than anything else. The way we protect ourselves from loss may be the way in which we distance ourselves from life… We burn out not because we don't care but because we don't grieve. We burn out because we've allowed our hearts to become so filled with loss that we have no room left to care."
I wish you glorious days of summer, and a renewed capacity to care.

- Love it or hate it, spend it or save it, money makes the world go round. These images, some direct and some metaphorical, drive home our relationship with the almighty dollar. The coins, cash, and gold ingots look seductive, but watch out for the overdue bills, the overdrawn credit cards, and the empty coin purse.
