Imitation and belief learning in an oligopoly experiment
We examine the force of three types of behavioral dynamics in quantity-setting triopoly experiments:mimicking the successful firm,following the exemplary firm, andbelief learning.Theoretically, these three rules of dynamic conduct lead to the competitive, the collusive, and the Cournot-Nash outcome, respectively. In the experiment we employ three information treatments. Each of these treatments is hypothesized to be conducive to the force of one of the three dynamic rules. To a large extent, the results are consistent with the hypothesized relationships between treatments, dynamic rules, and outcomes.(This abstract was borrowed from another version of this item.)

Worst Ferrari Owner Ever
So some Ferrari owner in Brazil crashed his 2000 360 Modena into some other car. Then -- at a later date -- had to push it around town because it was out of gas. Not surprisingly, it turns out the dude hadn't been paying his taxes and fines for the car either. Which makes him the worst Ferrari owner ever. While most owners treat a Ferrari like their baby (one that wasn't an accident), this guy treats his like a redheaded stepchild.
A bunch more pictures of the damage, him pushing it through the streets, and a screenshot of the car's tax sheet after the jump. Anybody that wants to shed more light on the article feel free to, my Portuguese is limited (and I'm dumb as shit).

Terry Bradshaw is "really upset" he's being accused of racism after comparing a Reggie Bush TD run to someone chasing a "bucket of chicken" ... but tells TMZ there's a simple explanation -- Jimmy Johnson is a freak for chicken!
We just spoke to FOX NFL analysts Johnson and Bradshaw ... who said he was unaware there was any controversy until friends started calling him this morning.
Bradshaw explained it's a Sunday tradition for JJ to order a bucket of KFC after they wrap the pregame show -- and yesterday was no exception. Bradshaw says Johnson "won't share it with anybody" ... and everyone on set rips him for it.
Johnson backed up the bucket tale ... telling us, "Every Sunday I get 4 pieces of fried chicken, dark meat, and I eat it right there on the set."
Bradshaw tells us yesterday's chicken comment was an innocent shot at one of his co-stars ... something he commonly does during highlights.
TB says, "I'm having a hard time with this ... because that's not me. I never put those two things together because I don't think like that."
But Bradshaw adds, "I understand why people are upset because they don't know the inside story."
For his part, Johnson is sure there was no racist intent -- and tells us, "I love fried chicken. A lot of people love fried chicken, so what's the big deal?"
He could have said something about Kim Kardashian's lard ass which would have been 10 times worse than the chicken comment.
Pulease - stop making this into something because it's nothing. JJ's chicken exploits are well known and anyone who has watched them on TV for more than 5 seconds knew it was a dig at JJ. Geesh.
Their trash talk is what keeps me interested in watching their show because it's hilarious.
This is absurd. TB is NOT a racist. JJ loves chicken & he was poking fun at him. People are way to sensitive now a days. People are always looking for racism were there isn't any. Leave TB alone. he is a good guy.
Black people love fried chicken and so do white people. Quit getting mad at fried chicken.
I'm a black male and I don't eat chicken so I don't think it's racist. Whites eat chicken too. It's affordable and easy to consume lol.
The problem is that most people in this country are over-sensitive morons with no sense of humor. Black people can make all the black jokes they want, Will & Grace was a hit comedy based on gay jokes. But as soon as a white guy makes a joke remotely related to race or homosexuality, TMZ is all over it like the police. Minority rights do not mean it's OK to demonize innocent attempts at humor.
We NFL fans know ur not racist Terry. Don't let TMZ make this into more than what it is. EVERYBODY LOVES FRIED CHICKEN!!
The drumstick pictured in the photo looks like "Popeye's Chicken" not "KFC". You can tell by the Corn Flakes cereal crushed slightly, breading.
Wouldn't it be refreshing for Bush to, considering JJ's love for fried chicken is well known in the NFL, tell people to shut up and lay off the Bradshaw? Or is that "not cool"??
Not shocking
Always said it
All American white males are racist, so disgusting
That all they focus on, they are all cave men....
There is more to life...

What should I do when spring bulbs start to sprout in late winter?
—Barbara Richards, North Wales, PA
Bulbs usually aren't damaged much when they sprout early, but if you have some snow piled up on your property, it wouldn't hurt to shovel it on top of the bulbs to keep them cooler and slow their growth. The best way to approach this problem, however, lies in choosing your planting sites carefully. Avoid places that heat up early, such as south-facing slopes or areas near the foundation on the south side of your house or garage. Be sure, too, that you plant bulbs deeply enough. When they're too shallow, they warm earlier.
Put several inches of mulch over your bulb beds as soon as the soil freezes in late autumn. In addition to protecting the bulbs from extreme cold, mulch insulates the soil and helps keep it cool enough to discourage early sprouting. Bulb foliage that's pale and yellowish under the mulch will green up when it's exposed to sunlight.

Three goose eggs on Day One is it a sign?
STOCKHOLM Goalies, as well as fans of the masked men, had to love the fact there were three shutouts on Day One of the 2012 IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship.Stockholms Globen Arena witnessed Germanys Dennis Endras blanking Italy 3-0, and the Czech Republics Jakub Kovar beating Denmark 2-0. At Helsinkis Hartwall Arena, it was Finlands Kari Lehtonen delighting the hometown crowd with a 1-0 win over Belarus.Thats three out of six opening-day games where one side registered nada on the scoreboard.If this torrid pace holds true for the rest of the tournament, we could be looking at a remarkable bumper crop of shutouts at least in the context of recent years.Since 2007, the first year in which there were no longer ties at the IIHF World Championship (and consequently, no more 0-0 deadlocks), there have been an average of 9.6 shutouts per tournament. Here is the breakdown:2007: 112008: 82009: 102010: 102011: 9The surplus of shutouts on Day One increases the possibility we could go even higher into double digits in 2012. Another factor is that this years World Championship will consist of 64 games instead of just 56, as was the case in previous tournaments.Ultimately, itll come down to a combination of the brilliance of the netminders and the ineptitude of the shooters. And thatll be a group effort. How so?Ever-increasing parity in international hockey reduces the likelihood that any single goalie or team will be able to rack up goose egg after goose egg. (We definitely wont see a repeat of the most lopsided shutout in top-level World Championship history, Canadas 47-0 romp over Denmark in 1949.)When you consult the IIHF Record Book, none of the goalies who are listed in the Most Shutouts, One WM category played in the modern era, with the exception of Czechoslovakias Jiri Kralik, who had four in 1982. The single-tournament champ is Great Britains Jimmy Foster, with eight in 1937, and that was at a time when World Championship games consisted of three 15-minute periods.Nonetheless, its looking good for the goaltending brotherhood so far in 2012.In case youre curious, the last 0-0 tie in World Championship history occurred between Finland and Latvia on May 9, 2005 in Innsbruck, Austria. The goalies were Niklas Bäckström and Arturs Irbe.LUCAS AYKROYD

Piedmont Police officers patrolling the streets of the city could soon be a thing of the past. The city is considering cutting its entire force to save money.
The city's mayor led a press conference with the Canadian County Sheriff's Office Friday morning. Piedmont officials say they've been cuffed with a tight budget. So much so that they're considering getting rid of the police department to save hundreds of thousands of dollars, but not everyone agrees.
"We think we've got a top-notch police department. What we're strictly looking at is funding and another funding source to help with our roads," said Piedmont Mayor Valerie Thomerson. "We're looking at every available opportunity to seek funding in a difficult budget year."
Piedmont City Manager Jim Crosby says the police department is largest expense of the city's budget, which totals about $607,252.48. Crosby said cutting the police department's eight officers would save the city about $300,000 a year. The city would then sign a contract with the Canadian County Sheriff's Office and use its eight deputies.
"It's just a proposal to see if the Sheriff's office could do it cheaper and offer greater coverage," Crosby said.
Canadian County Undersheriff Chris West said if Piedmont decides to enter a contract with the county, the Sheriff's office would offer a host of resources at no additional charge to the city, including a unit dedicated to investigations, computer crimes, collisions, narcotics and school truancy.
"We would transfer the 911 service to the sheriff's office, so that we're in direct communications with our people working here in our Piedmont Divisions and they'll go straight out to the calls," West said.
"I think it's going to be the same. We would have deputies assigned right here in the city of Piedmont. They're not going to be all over the county. They're going to be right here in the city and will be quick to respond."
But some Piedmont Police officers say the numbers don't add up and think the city is retaliating after officers joined a union earlier this year.
"It's kind of knocking them down a little bit. Any time your job is on the line, you're going to get a little upset," said Phillip Wise, Executive Director of The Fraternal Order of Peace Labor Counsel.
"The FOP and the City of Piedmont are currently in negotiations for a contract for the police department and then they just entered into contract negotiations with the sheriff's department. So I don't understand where that's going. The county's going to cost them more."
Wise says one mile of road repaired in Piedmont is going to cost the city about $1 million dollars.
"So what's saving this $300,000 really going to fix?" asked Wise.
Wise also says the city would be in jeopardy if the county gets a new sheriff and then decides one day not to renew Piedmont's contract. Piedmont residents are split on the issue.
"Nothing personal against the police department, it's a matter of services and money," said Al Ridgely, a Piedmont resident for 31 years, who says the city could desperately use the money to fix the beat-up roads. "First of all you're looking at rural community. The safety of this town is dictated by the fact that almost everyone in this town is armed. So it's not the police keeping the crime rate low here."
Donya Hau was raised in Piedmont and said the city is going to lose out on personalized service from officers in their neighborhoods and school if they're cut.
"I think that there are other ways to look at the budget to save money, not eliminating our police officers," Hau said. "I feel like they were thrown under the bus. So I think that's why we're so protective and we're fighting for them because they are our family."
The city will decide if they'll move forward with the proposal at a special study session meeting held at City Hall at 6 p.m. on September 16.
West said if the Piedmont Police Department is eliminated, the officers will have top consideration for jobs with the Sheriff's Office.

The advice from Matt Cutts is worth repeating. His advice is: only use the Disavow Links tool if you already received an unnatural backlinks notice and can see that your rankings have been impacted.
If you didn't get one of those little warning gems in your WMT account and your rankings are "steady as she goes" - then I would not tinker around. Google already ignores bajillions of backlnks.

What a precious puppy! Flexible slip-resistant soles are great for toe-gripping babies or toddlers learning to crawl or walk. An elastic ankle system makes sure shoes stay on and is also great for easy on and off. Super-soft leather gives tiny feet room to move and grow.

So I went to see the Rocky Horror Show last night. It was the 40th anniversary. People had really gone to town dressing up. Before the show people were standing up in their outfits getting big cheers from the crowd. One guy was dressed as rocky, flexing his muscles another guy in a corset and suspenders. I wasn't dressed up. I just had a pretty dress on. I must of been a Janet, Dammit! lol
It really was a hilarious show. Not for the faint hearted or ultra conservative. The audience was shouting out some really smart comments especially with the narrator. He was full of wit and could carry it off.
Sarah :-O
Not seen the sequal. A one to watch out for.
have you seen the sequel "shock treatment"?it's even better than rhps

Project Description
Existing Conditions Photos
Supporting Documents
Letters of Support
The Project consists of the replacement of I-95 Providence Viaduct, Bridge No. 578 in downtown Providence, Rhode Island. The Project includes replacing the existing structure by constructing two new independent bridge structures and rebuilding the adjacent ramp structures north and south of the viaduct. The replacement structure will consist of 1,290-foot long continuous steel girder spans supporting a reinforced concrete deck. The new concrete piers and abutments will be supported on steel piles. Each bridge structure will be constructed to accommodate at least four 12-foot lanes of traffic to provide adequate capacity during construction and for future maintenance activities.
TIGER funding will help complete Phase 1 by 2016; RIDOT funding will be used for the remainder of the project phases and is scheduled to be complete in 2019.
Phase 1: Construction of a new bridge for I-95 southbound; relocation of I-95 southbound to the new I-95 southbound bridge; construction of a new Atwells Avenue off-ramp (bridge #577); and construction of the I-95 southbound to Route 6 westbound ramp (bridge #579).
Phase 2: Relocation of the I-95 northbound traffic to the original southbound bridge; Replacement of Atwells Avenue on-ramp to I-95 northbound (bridge #576); partial reconstruction of Route 6/Route 10 ramp and Memorial Boulevard on-ramp to I-95 northbound, Ramp CB-DB (bridge #583, spans 6 and 7).
Phase 3: Replacement of existing I-95 northbound bridge #578.
Phase 4: Relocation of the I-95 northbound traffic to the new northbound bridge; removal of existing I-95 southbound bridge (#578).
Rhode Island's extensive system of roads and bridges provides its residents and visitors with a high level of mobility. As the backbone of the transportation system, roads and bridges play a central role in the state's economy. A well-maintained, safe and free-flowing I-95 in Providence is critical to the state's ability to accommodate future growth safely and efficiently as the state's population and vehicle travel increase. TIGER Discretionary Grant funding for the I-95 Providence Viaduct Project would immediately introduce more than $264 million in new economic activity as well as allow RIDOT to create and preserve over 2,100* jobs; and dramatically improve the safety of the traveling public. Overarching project benefits include:

Phew..., I'm so happy I finished this now.
It's a music video to the Duncan Hills Coffee Jingle from the awesome band Dethklok.
I really tried hard on their faces, but I'm not really happy how Skwisgaar's Head has turned out.
But now stop reading and watch the flash!
Because we're here to make Coffee Metal! We will make everything Metal!
PS: Would be awesome if this flash would someday be in the Music Video Section! ;D
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars February 17, 2009
i love this video its deathlok it has coffee in it dude great flash!
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars February 17, 2009
Pretty darn good.
I have to admit, it was a little slow for me in the beginning, but the end of the movie made up for that. Your animation looks pretty good, but wouldn't have minded a little mouth movement from the dethklok guy when it pans over them. Other than that, though, I really liked this. Good music, nice animation, and a killer ending. Good job!
Rated 4 / 5 stars February 24, 2010
This was good
It seems like flashes that involve rock bands and coffee always get positive reception from the public. My biggest complaint is that it is pretty hard to understand what is being sang. I guess that could either be part of the joke or something wrong with my headphones. The animation is decent enough, if not all that original. It is cool to see those green things flying around everywhere. While pretty incomprehensible, it is a watch for people who are fans of this sort of thing.
Rated 4 / 5 stars February 17, 2009
::Near genius::
This was brilliant, very well presented. It's essentially a music video with a heavy metal song singing about what appears to be coffee. The song is given some visual aid with some great animation displaying bands members singing and playing their guitar.
The graphics are very good and the different level of shots like close-ups of the band members and shots of the coffee shop being visible from out of space really help to convey the level of intensity the artist was going for.
Its a very intense yet slap-stick sort of flash that is delivered really well.
A music video like flash that mixes some great animation with some even better heavy metal music to bring out something that can only be defined as 'awesome'.
Rated 4 / 5 stars February 17, 2009

Was funny to watch, but you need to sync more the image with the music. Also i enjoy it, this was more that the blackess black, times infinity.

text: Historical marching band DVDs on sale Want to relive your marching days, but without the rain or the stress of practicing the same routine over and over again? DVDs of seasons ranging from 1935 to 2008 are now available for purchase. For more than a year, the Purdue Department of Bands has been converting old 16mm films and VHS tapes of performances by the "All-American" Marching Band into DVD format so special shows and moments in Purdue marching band history can be revisited. The project was underwritten with a $2,000 grant from the Gamma Pi Alumni Association of Kappa Kappa Psi service fraternity. Not all films and tapes could be recovered as some of the oldest ones had deteriorated beyond saving. A few years have not been located but efforts are continuing to find copies of them. As they are located, they will be converted to DVDs and offered for sale. Gamma Pi is coordinating sales of the DVDs to alumni and Purdue Band fans. The DVDs have formatted in a manner that allows you to purchase those eras in which you participated or have children/friends who participated in the Band. Money raised from the sale of these DVDs will be used by GPAA to further assist the Purdue Department of Bands with their various programs, trips, and equipment needs. Print out the attached order form to initiate your purchase. |

No More Bats and Bicycle Chickens: The Better Side of Burmese Cuisine
I remember my first taste of what was supposed to be Burmese food at a restaurant in San Francisco. There was none of the coconut milk and fragrance of Thai curries and the spice palette didn't inspire like it did in Indian cuisine.
Underwhelming, I thought.
However, during our visit to Burma (Myanmar), we quickly appreciated Burmese cuisine for the beauty of what it is: an Asian cuisine fused from Southeast Asian, Chinese and Indian influences.
Armed with that perspective, we found Burmese food a pleasure. Street food was varied, accessible and inexpensive. Restaurants were similarly enjoyable. And we were even invited for a few home-cooked meals. Continue Reading »

Welcome the season with a mug worthy of your finest beer. Handcrafted in the tradition of classic German "steinkrugs," the piece is covered with sculptured artwork showcasing Christmas images, with a German twist. Made in Germany.
One side of the stein features Santa, dressed in lederhosen, holding aloft his own beer stein. The other side features an image of "Nikolaus-Kirche" (Church of St. Nicholas), located in Austria. It was at this chapel that the popular Christmas hymn "Silent Night" was first performed on December 24, 1818. The base of the stein is encircled with bells, holly berries, Alpine edelweiss flowers, and enzian flowers. The stein is topped with an ornate, three-dimensional pewter lid.
Hand painted and fired repeatedly for long-lasting quality, the limited edition stein is individually numbered - only 10,000 stein were created. Each stein is signed on the base by the modeler and painter.
Additional Information: Measures 6.30"L x 4.53"W x 11.22"H. Weighs 2.20 pounds. Holds 25.36 ounces. Made of stoneware. Comes with a certificate of authenticity.
About King-Werk: Founded in 1949, King-Werk is a family-owned business that practices the centuries old craft of stein making. Located in Germany's Western Forest, many King-Werk steins are based on antique designs. In the early 1500s, Germany established laws requiring that all food and beverage containers be covered to protect their contents, in reaction to several fly invasions and the bubonic plague. In response, easy-open "steinkrugs" were created with the lid, hinge and thumb lift combined. Created by skilled craftsman, you can carry on a European tradition with your own artful King-Werk stein.

Virgil Goode on Virginia's presidential ballot
RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - Conservative former Rep. Virgil Goode will appear on Virginia's presidential ballot after state election officials rejected a Republican-led effort to keep him off.
Republicans fear Goode will drain votes from their candidate, Mitt Romney, in a swing state where polls show a deadlocked race.
Virginia's State Board of Elections acted Tuesday after the state GOP challenged Goode's qualifying petitions and sought an independent review. But the Republican-dominated board also asked Republican Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli and the state police to investigate.
The former congressman is the nominee of the conservative Constitution Party, and has held office as a Democrat, independent and Republican. He lost the seat to Democrat Tom Perriello in 2008.
Goode has called the GOP's action a heavy-handed effort to control ballot access and intimidate third-party participation.
