Make it happen!
contribute nowBOARDMAN, Ore. – A series of public meetings about a proposed coal export terminal kicked off Tuesday night in this Eastern Oregon town that hugs the Columbia River
Oregon's Department of Environmental Quality hosted the meeting to take comments and answer questions about permits required for the proposed Morrow Pacific Project. It would transport coal by train to the eastern Oregon port city. Then coal would then be barged down the Columbia River and eventually shipped to Asia.
Around 200 people came with questions for department officials. How would the department handle a barge fire? Had it ever received complaints of coal dust?
Boardman resident Donald Gratin supports the terminal. He said Eastern Oregon needs jobs and tht he doesn't believe environmental concerns are accurate.
"We hear all this about what's going to happen to Hood River and The Dalles. We're talking covered barges. It's not gonna happen," Gratin told the crowd.
Supporters waved their hands in the air when they liked someone's statement. Environmental advocates voiced concerns about coal dust and climate change, at one point pulling out a bucket of coal dust to underscore that point.
Many people opposed to the Morrow Pacific Project asked questions related to a regional environmental impact statement (EIS). A regional EIS would look at the cumulative effects of exporting coal from all five proposed terminals in the northwest. The Army Corps of Engineers will decide whether to require a regional EIS. Oregon's Department of Environmental Quality only has authority to regulate what happens on site at the Boardman and St. Helens ports, officials said.
That frustrated some in the crowd, including Hood River resident Gwen Thomas.
"Repeatedly tonight we've heard about the narrow scope of what you have authority over," Thomas said. "I've just been sitting here thinking about the dangers of just taking that into consideration."
The Department of Environmental Quality will hold two more meetings this week: One Wednesday in Clatskanie and one Thursday in Portland.
The Oregon Department of State Lands, another state agency involved with permits required for the project to move forward recently added a third comment period, which began Monday. The Department of State Lands set April first as its new deadline for deciding whether to issue permits the company needs to build the terminal.
The Morrow Pacific export proposal is one of five separate initiatives to establish shipping terminals in the Northwest so coal from Montana and Wyoming can be delivered across the Pacific Ocean to markets in Asia.
One of those proposals is in the midst of public hearings. The project would transport coal by train through Spokane, down to the Columbia River, and then head north through Western Washington to unload its cargo at a terminal north of Bellingham. The next hearings for that project are Dec. 12 in Vancouver, Wash., and Dec. 13 in Seattle.

WWBG: Craft Beer Value
Friday - 3/22/2013, 2:30pm  ET
Editor's Note: This weekly column is sponsored by Georgetown Square Wine and Beer (10400 Old Georgetown Road).
Perhaps you are still feeling the effects of a little too much volume drinking last weekend for St. Patrick's Day or maybe you are just looking for a little change of pace from your standard Budweiser and Miller products. Now is as good a time as any to give craft beers a try.
Over the last five years, craft beer's market share has been growing at an exceptionally fast pace. As of 2011, the percentage of all beer sold in the United States reached over 5% for the first time and is showing no signs of slowing down. Unfortunately that means that craft beer, which by nature is not mass produced, is becoming more and more in demand.
There have been plenty of other blogs dedicated to the best of breed of the very trendy Indian Pale Ales and Belgian Triples. Prices on such beers are rising in line with demand for those products. So if you are interested in something a little bit better than your Coors Light sixer this weekend, you might find it hard to do so without breaking the bank.
With that in mind, here are some quality craft beer options that may not be quite as heralded, but are a great value and should come in around or under $10:
For the Hop Heads:
Samuel Adams – Latitude 48 IPA
America's first big name craft beer shouldn't be discounted just because it has been around a long time. This IPA gets its name from the various hops added from around the world, all from what Sam Adam's calls the "hop belt" of around the 48th Latitude. It has a golden/amber color that was described as reminding one friend of "the old man's cane in Jurassic Park." It has a wonderful strong hop flavor that is slightly bitter but with a smooth finish.
Heavy Seas – Loose Cannon Hop^3 IPA
Coming out of Baltimore, Heavy Seas is brewing a classic East Coast IPA. The hop profile on this beer is not as noticeable as in the Sam Adams Latitude 48, but that makes for a more balanced beer. There are hints of floral and herbal notes with a very aromatic finish. Excellent for those looking for a lighter tasting (if not lighter in alcohol content) IPA.
Widmer Brothers – Drifter Pale Ale
While not labeled as an IPA, the Drifter Pale Ale certainly has all the punch that IPAs are know for. This pale ale has a very bold hop flavor to match its deep amber color. It comes out just between the Latitude 48 and Loose Cannon for hoppiness and represents a good middle ground between the two beers' flavor profiles. The only knock I have heard on this beer is that it couldn't have a more boring label. To each their own, I suppose.
For those that want something a little different:
This is a beautiful beer and my favorite of the bunch. It is made with bits of coconut added during the brewing process that make this brown ale smooth with a nutty and caramel/toffee sweet aftertaste. It has a great amber color and pours an excellent frothy, brown head. The goal of the brewer was to bring the drinker to the beach, and I believe they have succeeded at this. A friend drank this beer and said "this reminds me of tanning oil, but in a good way." Job well done, Kona. It comes very favorably in price/value compared to similar offerings from the other famous Hawaii brewer, Maui Brewing.
I couldn't pass up a chance to add a Belgian style ale to this column either. Belgian Triples are really all the rage these days as with the IPAs. And who better to recommend than a New York brewer dedicated to making only Belgian style brews. Belgian Triples, however, are getting exponentially more expensive due in great part to their popularity. But the often neglected Belgian Double is where I think the real value is at. Triple v. Double refers to the alcohol content of a given Belgian style ale. As that multiplier increases, so does the alcohol content, though not linearly. This is done by adding more malt as the beer is brewed, which in general adds to cost. The Belgian Double is in a nice price/value sweet spot. You get all of the bold, complex, and rich flavors of a Belgian Abbey style ale in this beer. It has a wonderful malt profile with a tinge of fruity taste with the bonus that it isn't too heavy or too expensive. The Ommegang Abbey Ale is a wonderful beer for those wanting to sample the Belgian style without going full bore into the deep end.

If anarcho capitalism didnt exist, would you rather be a minarchist or an anarcho leftist (communist/syndicalist/mutualist whatever)?
Id rather be one of the anarcho left, not sure which one.
Well maybe not, i mean minarchy is not THAT bad if you like to compromise principle...
"Since people are concerned that 'X' will not be provided, 'X' will naturally be provided by those who are concerned by its absence.""The sweetest of minds can harbor the harshest of men."
Well damn... I was gonna make a thread like this... And hell I probably still will.
Anyway, definitely minarchist, leftist anarchism has potential, but not in the absence of a capitalist society.
i dunno but the anarcho left has some pretty good music... riot folk, poison girl, etc
leftist anarchism has potential
I'd like you to make a thread on this. I've noticed you saying things before like this, I'd be interested in hearing why you have the sympathies.
All I know is everytime I develop any sympathies with any of their theories -or even "empathy" with any of their concerns, it turns out I hit a brick wall.
Anyway - in so much as minarchy means "custom law with a mostly capitalist system" - certainly minarchy. I seriously don't know how radical leftism as I have seen it stated will lead to anything but a catastrophe.
"As in a kaleidoscope, the constellation of forces operating in the system as a whole is ever changing." - Ludwig Lachmann
"When A Man Dies A World Goes Out of Existence" - GLS Shackle
Mutualism doesn't seem all thaaaaat evil, but with the loose definitions of "minarchy" some people like to have, I'll go with minarchy. (Some minarchists are essentially AnCaps but are afraid of the anarchist label - they want all government services to be paid for by voluntary fees, and although the government maintains a monopoly on the law they believe in infinite secession - essentially AnCap).
maybe cuz im still young and radical i lean towards left anarchy more, but it is a kinda abstract theory
It's hella abstract as I've seen it stated! They're against "hierarchy" and they prefer to leave the actual definition of hierarchy "undefined" so that they can adapt to the situation.
Mutualism doesn't seem all thaaaaat evil
That's what I thought at first. But they seem to be hardcore money cranks. And when you start asking about intrest, rent, etc - they tend to get very very obscure and slippery; they pull a lot of tap dances with purposefully annoying terms (e.g."free markets" NOT "capitalism" - insist on being called "leftist" because of theFrench assembly or whatever other types of fashionable word Platonisms they wish to use)
We talk about elastic property rights and custom law, AND THEY STILL WISH TO USE different terminology. Something is fishy.
Do they understand that money is just a medium of trade? Money in itself is not evil, but the attitude that which you look at money can be.
Well, i said kinda, because i thot i was too dumb to understand it (wikipedia is good, but hard to understand sometimes)...
Do they understand that money is just a medium of trade
I have no idea what they understand. If you look through threads here where LL's have come up in flares and fits - they simply duck out ofargument and slip into sloganing and have a penchant for caring more about labels.
Just go to the all-left.net forum to see them in their natural environment. 99% of it's all about the right (left) way to support the right (left) cause, and how they hate ancaps.
you're not too dumb to understand anything. You just have no need to understand something at the moment, you arein the process of learning something, or it is gibberish. Don't doubt yourself on these trivial things that people try to cram down your throat and lord over you. The minute somone does that laugh in their face and move on,and that will easily demonstrate the uselessness of the BS they're trying to sell you.
So you saying they just talk all rhetoric..
hurr durr greedy capitalists and their sweatshops viva la revoluciya!!!!!!!! change, be different blah blah blah, fuck masters..!
Im sure there are very intelligible left anarchists though
Like ronald reagan.... says he will spend less and tax less
spends money on sdi
If the issue of left vs. right anarchism hinges solely on the issue of property, I could very comfortably be a 'left anarchist'. By this I mean an individualist anarchist in support of an occupancy/use property scheme. In fact I often find myself indifferent to the effectual differences between usufruct (occ/use) and private property. Even if there were no minarchy, I'd still probably go to an anarcho-leftist territory, because at least it would be fascinating.
I'm sure there are some problems with the effects of usufruct and the moralistic prescriptions of various mutualist doctrines, but I can't pinpoint them right now. I used to think that it would be a big problem for consumers to be able to provide demand for capital goods, but realized there could easily be a business bond market rather than an equity one, wherein investors or more creditors than capitalists. People could deposit savings in banks and indicate whether they would like to warehouse or invest, whereafter banks could place their money on the business bond market or refer it to a financial advisor. All in all I think it would work out ok. The biggest problem with investment is whether leftists would even give a shit about it, thinking that investment is for guys who wear khakis, not understanding the structure of production. Oh well, I think it could work out ok, in the manner outlined above.
On the Mutualist monetary crankiness, it's really not a problem at all. Their whole proposal is for people to issue notes based on promises for labor or time. That's fine. But it'll get the shit discounted out of it at banknote clearings, in favor of gold. That seems obvious to me, and humorously telling of the leftist mindset, which always ignores the restraints of the market, seeking to build pies in the sky. Let them have their 'mutualist bank' it won't make any difference, until of course they go violent on the gold reserve banks. Though I would expect it might not come to that.
Also, goddamn the LibertarianLeftists. Instead of bridging the gap between anarchisms, they've only made the leftists hate anything right of the ALL, meaning the whole Mises crowd, despite the two sharing an identical politico-economic prescription. The whole 'emphasis' thing is bullshit, despite some fantastic literature produced by that crowd (Carson specifically).
On usufruct: is it really so bad? What would it change so significantly that the end of subsidized transportation wouldn't already largely put into effect? Let me know.
The Anarch is to the Anarchist what the Monarch is to the Monarchist. -Ernst Jünger
I think alot of people who oppose capitalism, often mix up corporatism with true capitalism.
This is very true and a big problem. I've oft ventured into the Anarchism subreddit, to have AnComs tell me they don't 'believe' that there would be a difference between a free market and a state-corporate one. It's mind-boggling. As a gross generalization, most anarcho-leftists view anarchy like porn: no masters, no bosses, no god = sexy... but freedom of contract, capital accumulation, rule of law = *snore* get off the stage old man!
There are some anarcho-leftists who kind of get it, and would even be willing to cooperate within an individualist property paradigm, whether usufruct or private, but still favor the aesthetic of a more communal society. It's for this reason that I am currently liking usufruct. If more Rothbardians were Tuckerites, maybe there could be a real bridge. The whole point is to double the number of anarchists in agreement, though typical AnCom 'hotheadedness' (read: stupidity) often gives me cause for concern.
Can I haz karma now?
What is usufruct?
@ Wheylous - Lol
@ Kevin - Usufruct is property paradigm based off of occupancy and use.
Releveant to the thread:
Market of Anarchists
From the very little I understand:
I don't think it's bad at all, is probably somewhat desirable, and in fact may be necessary in a way(?). Isn't this essentially the work of Ostrom?
The main thrust is though, one can not base a theory out of it. This is a consequence of the market / institutional process and structure. One can not start with what instutions ought to be or look like, nor can one emphasize such things. That's where it gets very deadly (literally) and "top down" intellectual masturbation. This comes with part ofmy confusion with mutualism - it looks more at plausible ends and wishes to make that the focus.

Hmm. You're sounding kind of historicist here, in terms of assuming that private property is an outcome of what historical market process has existed, which suprises me. I don't see how one cannot base theory of the usufruct principle. Though I completely agree that much of mutualist (and worse, what's left of it) doctrine is about painting pictures and giving suggestions on what color to paint the cooperative-kitchen, that does not mean that there isn't room for the theoretical fleshing-out of usufruct.
There's kind of a tendency in this kind of literature to say: look how horrible this shit is right now, let's become free and then sort it out amongst ourselves. I agree that this could lead to mass starvation. But just because private property has been the reigning paradigm of the last few centuries does not mean that it and market process are inextricable, or have I misunderstood you?
The left needs more rightists writing their own literature for them. Treatises not flyers. Maybe then we could throw most of it in the trash once it reveals itself in plain english.
the respect for private property is when people respect the product of another man's labor.
Actually that's precisely what usufruct is. How is it labor when someone is just entitled to a plot of land and can charge rent on it when he lives a state away?
You're sounding kind of historicist here
That wouldn't surprise me being that I have been reading far more Weber and Lachmann than Mises this past year. As you may have noticed from my past few posts in topics, there is a bit of a dissonance in how I am thinking about economics lately. I am probably a bit more confused in my thoughts than I was a year ago.
does this relate to Elinor Ostrom's work on the commons? If so, it is indeed very interesting stuff.
Furthermore, I am wondering if one could actually make a defence of what we have now (that is something that actually factually exists) vs a pie in the sky argument. Mercantilism, Keynesianism, Corprotism are "real" things to me as they are merely managment theories on real actions and real processes. This makes them less dangerous than abstract social structures to me, and more preferable.
If I heard people say "screw it we are reorganizing to this Platonic vision" - I would immediatley recoil and my mind wouldturn to the French,1848, and Russian Revolutions
I haven't read Ostrom's work but it's basically a refutation of "The Tragedy of the Commons" and Hardin revised his title to the Tragedy of the Unmanaged Commons. If it's correct then I think it would indicate the feasibility of voluntary collective life. That said, usufruct doesn't depend on the feasibility of collective life in order to function. It would function very similarly, in my opinion, to an orthodox market setup, except that firm size would be smaller as the boss (if there was one) would have to be present at the factory at which he worked, and there would be no more people living solely off of rent. Probably more people owning their own businesses, lower profit rate, few employees per firm. As I said above I think there's also a possibility for the emergence of a stock-market equivalent.
I think the advantage in effect that private property would have is in inviting more investment, though a mutualist territory could become just as wealthy.

OP - Minarchy, if you can keep it.
What:? not a republic??
i see what you did there ^^^
I never really bought that narrative all too much. I really think Catholicism has been irrelevant in actual factual actions of relevant things since the Reformation / Printing Press at the earliest to the fall of the Louis XVI at the latest, since than it has been effectively "in the dustbin" so to speak. Moreover I think the narrative was made by "Catholic Pride Right Wing Types" as an ad hoc thing because they like Catholicism and they like capitalism - so it's just one ofthose things tomake themselves feel better, not really much of a social theory as it is a "rah rah" thing to me. As for social theory in relation to Weber, right or wrong, it has to show how people made use of it. I think British naturalism had far more of an effect on peoples minds and the way it dictated behavior than Scholastic thought, for better or worse.
More importantly,I think the point for Weber isn't so much "what really happened" in history which he may kind of giggle at, but how to do a genreal exagesis to understand what is going on in an intelligible way. That is to say, there is nothing inherent about "Protestantism" that leads it to capitalism - however real fashions and real actions happened to arise from it, than so be it. Furthermore nowhere does Weber claim that Protestantism is soley responsible for capitalism - he just uses it because it is useful to do so (he points out that Florence was capitalist, but never really exploited that fact to a degree of significance)
Of course minarchism. I would find a world of city-states (my conception of minarchy) perfectly good for the time being , if not a necessary station toward anacapistan. If anarcho-capitalism can't work for some reason, a global web of competing mini-states is still an alluring vision by any standard.
I congratulate kelvin_silva: the thread is very intelligent, it allows one to differentiate left- form right- leaning libertarians.
riot folk, poison girl, etc
Riot folk = shitty and unrelated. Poison Girls = amazing 'obscure' Crass Records material.
I'd rather be minarchist, as "anarcho"-leftist (see what I did there?) actually tends to be much more statist than minarchism, if the anarcho-capitalist definition of "state" is used. A lot of the branches of leftist anarchism are confused - especially mutualism. They're also concerned a great deal with acquiring and maintaining power over freedom, but that's rather hidden by their use of the word "freedom" to refer to both positive physical ability and the absence of opposing coercion.

(Some minarchists are essentially AnCaps but are afraid of the anarchist label - they want all government services to be paid for by voluntary fees, and although the government maintains a monopoly on the law they believe in infinite secession - essentially AnCap).
Not to derail the thread, but infinite secession doesn't seem compatible to government maintaining a monopoly on the law.

Mutualism is really, really confused IMO. For one thing, its support of usufruct over ownership seems like just a rationalization for its opposition to profit, interest, and rent - which means it opposed those things to begin with, and therefore for different reasons. For another, who's to say that usufruct rights can't themselves be alienated (i.e. given away or traded for other things)? And if they can, then doesn't that make them owned? Finally, usufruct in no way prevents the kind of substantial wealth disparities we've seen in history. Indeed, usufruct over land was apparently the norm in the ancient world.

The term "usufruct" comes from Roman law, which considered there to be three kinds of rights in ownership - rights to use (usus), rights to the products or "fruits" of use (fructus), and rights to alienate (abusus). Usufruct, then, entails only the first two kinds of rights. As a result, it's not the same as ownership. However, usufruct itself can be "commoditized" - that is, it can be considered alienable on its own.
usufruct was the norm? so what about feudalism? and state control of land?
as for your first point, i dont think that usufruct abolishes profit or interest, but it would do away with rent. one could easily be the boss of a factory and work there, have employees, and make profts. i think much of the mutualist claims of abolishing profit come from their banking idea, which is entirely of no consequence. the banknotes mutualists propose could probably be circulated but always much less valuable than things like gold. unless they tried to somehow enforce a currency monopoly, which i find doubtful as much mutualist theory rails precisely against that. more than anything mutualist banking would just be a big disappointment to its proponents, which is not a problem for market anarchism. it just means the marking down of low quality money.
usufruct rights could be traded away, but the reciever would have to use the land otherwise the occupiers would take it. that said, its not necessarily an impediment to market of profit bearing shares. bonds would take over the role of equities.
in the ways in which mutualism in confused, in its propsals on what the glorious people shold do it is of no consequence for market anarchists. just bad business going down. and theres also the usufruct, which i dont really think would be such a bad thing.

LEWISTON — Maine Contract Farming will pay $34,674.11 in fines and restitution in response to cruelty to animal charges at one of their egg farms in Turner.
The company will also donate $100,000 to the Maine Department of Agriculture to help monitor egg farms in the state. That's designed to improve the lot of egg-laying hens across Maine and prevent situations like those uncovered by an animal rights group at the Turner Egg farm in April 2009.
"These chickens are better off now because of this agreement," Assistant District Attorney Andrew Robinson said.
According to the negotiated settlement between Maine Contract Farming and the state, the company admitted responsibility for 10 counts of animal cruelty. According to the settlement, the company paid $2,500 in fines plus $967.41 in restitution per count — a total of $25,000 in fines and $9,674.11 in restitution.
It stems from a 2008-2009 hidden camera investigation by animal rights activist group Mercy For Animals. An undercover investigator for the group was hired by the company and documented instances of animals being mistreated and poorly handled. The group posted video from the hidden camera to its website, www.mercyforanimals.org.
The videos led to a state investigation of the egg farm. The Maine Department of Agriculture and its Animal Welfare Program executed a search warrant on April 1, 2009, raiding the Plains Road facility. Workers shot photos and video, and seized both dead and live chickens.
Robinson said the state has been working with Maine Contract Farming since the raid. He filed a complaint in Maine District Court on Friday and presented the settlement to Judge Rick E. Lawrence on Monday morning.
The settlement also requires Maine Contract Farming to give state investigators regular access to their facilities, improve staff training and retain a veterinarian to treat the birds.
Christine Fraser, veterinarian with the state's Department of Agriculture's animal welfare program, said the settlement will mean better treatement for Maine animals. Most importantly, it allows for better monitoring of Maine egg farms going forward.
"In a time of limited budgets, our staff size has been limited," she said. "But this $100,000, I hope this helps give us more hours to do more inspections. If we are out there more often, we'll be able to stop things before they get this bad. We might be able to just give some direction short of it becoming a violation and say, 'Don't do that. Do this instead.'"
Nathan Runkle, director of Mercy for Animals, said the decision was a landmark.
"We've had companies agree to a $100,000 settlement before, this had the added fines and restitution," Runkle said. "From a financial perspective, it's the largest settlement I've seen."
It's having an impact. Since the investigation, several states have approved bans on battery cages — the kinds used at Maine Contract Farming. Those are wire cages designed to hold five hens, and the Turner farm held roughly 16,000 cages, a total of 81,000 caged chickens in one barn.
Still, Runkle said it points up the need for better animal cruelty laws.
"But every time we go in and do this kind of investigation, we find these abuses," Runkle said. "So it's more than just isolated instances. We hope that showing some of these cases will show just how current laws are and why they need to be changed."

Special Adults
Special Adult Advisement and Registration for Fall Semester is April 7 - August 29, 2014.
Special Adult students who have been officially admitted and have paid their $100 enrollment fee should review the New Special Adult Student information below.
If you plan to take only a course or two for personal enrichment or to transfer to another institution, make sure you check the course description of the course(s) you want to enroll in for prerequisite requirements in the university catalog. Course prerequisites are entered into our registration system for all courses offered at UWS and our registration system will not allow enrollment if a course prerequisite is not indicated as being met. Although Special Adult students are not required to submit an official college transcript for Admissions purposes, you may need to provide this information in order to verify that you have met a prerequisite requirement to allow enrollment.
If you believe you have completed a prerequisite requirement at another institution, provide an unofficial transcript to the Center Office, Old Main 134, so we can verify that the prerequisite has been met. Providing this information will expedite your ability to register. Students who do not submit an unofficial transcript for prerequisite verification will be referred to the course instructor to officially obtain written consent from the instructor on a course request form to enroll in the class prior to registration. Note: After spring semester has ended, some course instructors may not be available to provide a signature until the first week of summer and/or fall classes.
Special Adult students, in most instances, do not qualify for financial aid. Special Adult students who are planning to complete a degree at UWS must change to degree seeking status by the time they have earned 29 credits. See change to degree seeking status in the university catalog.
To have your academic record activated to allow enrollment, fill out and submit the Intent to Register Form below.

The first fight I am looking forward to is Zab and Garcia. I liked how Judah rebounded by beating Vernon Paris (and what the hell happen to Paris?) by knock out no less. I am going to go with my heart and Judah for the win. He has to convincingly beat Garcia in order to win on the cards. The fight is in Brooklyn and I know it will be mad energy. Garcia has to be aggressive and push Judah around. I am pumped for this fight I honestly hope it will live up to its building. Judah seems focused and Danny seems to be all in. Plus his father has put coal on the fire let's hope that this fight sets the tone for boxing the rest of the year. I like Judah by a late knock out! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clapping.gif)

Sadly, Zab's heart will fail him and Garcia will get the KO or Zab will quit sometime after the first several rounds.

Full review
The BDP-S480 is a cutting-edge 3D Blu-ray player from Sony. At around £140, it's about £40 cheaper than the step-up BDP-S580, but the only apparent difference between the two is that the higher-end model has integrated Wi-Fi.
The S480's arrival warrants some excitement. The brand's previous Sx70 range garnered plenty of praise, plus a pile of industry awards. Read on to find out why this year's model offers both more and less than its predecessor.
Demise of the component connection
Standing just 36mm tall and 199mm deep, the S480 won't eat up much space in your equipment rack. Some cosmetic changes have been made to last year's design -- the addition of a curved lip below the screen being the main one -- but the player doesn't look drastically different.
Rear-side connectivity includes a single HDMI output, component video, phono AV, a single coaxial digital audio output, Ethernet, and a USB port. There's another USB socket on the front.
It doesn't take long to discover that the component output has been hobbled for Blu-ray playback and is now unable to deliver high-definition footage. Video resolution is capped at 480i, and you can now actually get a better component signal from DVD, which is delivered at 576i.
On the plus side, it's good to see that Sony has upgraded the media-playback support on this year's Blu-ray decks. The S480 was able to stream MKVs from a network-attached storage drive across our test network, whereas previous Sony players have always ignored these files. The deck also plays back AVCHD and AVI files. It didn't care for MOVs, though. Audio-file compatibility covers MP3, AAC, WAV and WMA.
Once online, the deck's XrossMediaBar interface integrates with the Bravia Internet Video portal charmingly. The sheer amount of content on the portal is impressive, and there's a long list of service providers to trawl under the 'music' and 'video' tabs. BBC iPlayer and Demand 5 provide catch-up TV services, with YouTube, Dailymotion and Sony Entertainment Television the other notable diversions.
The deck also incorporates a Web browser. It lacks Flash support and is prone to crashing, but, if you need to get online quickly, it's a handy alternative to powering up your laptop.
Disc-loading disappointment
Last year's Sony Blu-ray players provided the benchmark for disc-loading speeds. Unfortunately, this deck is slower than last year's fleet-footed BDP-S570.
The remastered Goldfinger serves up the 007 logo in 58 seconds -- down from 46 seconds or thereabouts last year. Lou Reed's Berlin (a simpler authoring job) takes 41 seconds to get to the menu screen -- 10 seconds slower than last year's model.
Despite the increased disc-load times, though, the BDP-S480 still ranks as one of the faster decks on the market.
What certainly hasn't declined is picture quality. Fed with high-quality discs like Tron: Legacy and Chico & Rita, this player rewards you with copious detail and a deliciously ripe colour palette.
The unit performs just as well with 3D Blu-rays. Unlike some of its rivals, there's no 2D-to-3D conversion feature.
The S480 is a very good DVD player too. The quality of deinterlacing and upscaling is great. The deck smoothes out diagonals and adds high-resolution texture to images so they look good on a large high-definition TV. That's an important point if you have a large DVD collection.
Sonically, this player reserves its best performance for the HDMI output. There's nothing special about the analogue output of the S480, which lacks the crispness and dynamics of the HDMI connection. Using the HDMI connection is also the only way to listen to multi-channel Super Audio CDs, which sound gorgeous. When fed a CD, the player will automatically look up the album on the Gracenote database, presenting album art on screen.
The S480 is not only a DLNA-compliant player, letting you stream files from your computer, for example, but also a 'DLNA renderer'. This means that you can send music and video files to the player from an app on your smart phone. A number of these so-called DLNA controller apps are being released for Apple and Android devices. In our experience, they're still rather flaky when it comes to file-format support, but potentially this could be a great feature.
The deck is compatible with Sony's new 'party streaming' multi-room audio mode. This allows the S480 to act either as the source of your multi-room tunes, or receive audio from another source on your network. With no other compatible products available for testing, we couldn't try this feature out, though.
The Sony BDP-S480 is a fine Blu-ray player, with more than enough charms to warrant a place on your shortlist. We love its Web features, Super Audio CD compatibility and improved file support. Its reduced disc-loading speed is odd, though, and the loss of high-definition video via component is irritating. Still, the S480's basic disc-playing talents remain consistently entertaining.

It's no secret that attendance in mainline Protestant churches has been declining, while nondenominational evangelical churches continue to grow. But researchers at the Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life were surprised by three trends in American religion when they analyzed the results from their U.S. Religious Landscape Survey.1
First, based on interviews with more than 35,000 adults, the survey found that 44% of adults have left the religious affiliation of their youth. Second, church-hopping is becoming more common. Because of this, many churches are competing for the same dissatisfied churchgoers.
Third, even with its great number of churches, Bible schools, and Christian bookstores, the United States is actually becoming less Christian. More than one fourth of adults have left the church they were raised in for another religion entirely or now have no religion at all.
While the idea of shopping for religion or churches smacks of consumerism, one aspect is potentially positive. Those not satisfied with their liberal church (or non-Christian religion) may be looking to Bible-believing churches for relevance and answers to life's difficult questions, which the Scriptures provide. They may end up finding good churches that don't compromise with secular thinking, such as evolution.

Marian and Lydia are lovely, but they are vintage and Scout is not. I am the one in the family with the "unique" name and my siblings have "normal" names. In my opinion, sibling names should come from the same category. They sound pleasing to the ear and are not mismatched. They also help the children feel equal. Scout could feel like her name is too boyish compared with something girly like Lydia. Maren and Linden would work though. They are more modern. Linden is unisex...
Some other ideas:

I second Scout and Rowan from the above posts! I think that would make a lovely sibset, and you could always use Lydia (which is beautiful by the way, I just don't think it 'fits' with Scout as a fn) as a middle name for Rowan. The other suggestions of Piper and Harper are great too, although I think Harper might be taking the To Kill a Mockingbird thing too far

Everybody's talking about 26 year old Jermaine Scott, aka Wretch 32. Adele, Jessie J and Rio Ferdinand have penned excited tweets about him, Liam Gallagher and Nikki Minaj have praised his music in interviews, 50 Cent's blogged about him, and P Diddy and Mark Ronson have asked him to jump up on stage with them. Chipmunk, The Streets and Wiley were among the first to ask him to record with them, and Professor Green and Tinie Tempah followed suit shortly after, inviting him to support them on tour. While Ian Brown gave him the green light to use a sample from the Stone Roses' Fools Gold for his #2 single 'Unorthodox', a collaboration with fellow London rapper Example, who has compared Wretch's 'charismatic, effortless flow' with that of Jay Z.Indeed 2011 has seen Wretch 32 come a long way from the times when he sold mixtapes in and around Tottenham, where he grew up, in order to get by. After being earmarked by everyone from the BBC, NME, Q magazine and MTV through to Tinie Tempah, Devlin and Professor Green as the artist to watch for this year, 'The Metaphor Man' (as he is referred to by the grime glitterati) has lived up to the hype. In addition to delivering a top 5 smash with debut single 'Traktor' and a chart-topping no. 2 with follow up single 'Unorthodox', Wretch 32 has toured the UK with Example, performed at the BRITS after show with Mark Ronson and on the In New Music We Trust stage at the Radio 1 Big Weekend, been appointed as an Adidas ambassador, and has been asked to feature on a number of other artist's recordings including Chase & Status' forthcoming single release 'Hitz'.This summer sees Wretch 32 gearing up for the release of his much anticipated debut album 'Black and White', and an extensive schedule of festival appearances.'Black and White' has far more in common with the diversity and depth of a classic hip hop album than the often formulaic and samey sounds of recent offerings from the UK grime scene. From the infectiously guitar-laden bounce of 'Unorthodox' and the lacerating dancehall beat and subsonic bassline of 'Traktor' through to the heartfelt soul of 'Anniversary', the rhythmically reggae infused 'Breathe' and the poignantly emotive down tempo hip hop anthem in the making and forthcoming single, 'Don't Go', Wretch 32's debut album boasts a kaleidoscope of musical influences and references that guarantee its universal appeal. Lyrically Wretch 32 steers away from clichéd self-aggrandising boasting and couplets about fame and girls, and instead paints incisive and colourful vignettes of everyday working-class city life from the perspective of a young man born and raised on one of the most notorious estates in London. Packed with quirky and humorous narratives and innovative and poetic metaphors, 'Black and White' confirms Wretch's status as the MC'S MC, positioning him as potentially the most interesting lyricist this country has produced since Mike Skinner.It's been a huge year so far for Wretch with three Top 5 hits in the space of a few months including 'Traktor', 'Unorthodox' and the number #1 single 'Don't Go' featuring Josh Kumra. His debut album 'Black and White', released on 21st August on Ministry of Sound/Levels Recordings, has also been a huge success and hit #4 in the album chart.
After performing at numerous festivals this summer (including Wireless, Glastonbury, T in The Park, V Festival and Bestival) Wretch was invited to perform at the 2011 MOBO Awards where he took the roof off delivering an amazing performance of 'Traktor' and 'Don't Go'.
October will be a busy month for Wretch who is about to embark on his first UK headline tour, the 'Black and White' tour, from October 16th as he headlines 12 dates all around the UK. And 2011 is not yet at an end for Wretch, who plans to release his third single from 'Black And White', 'Forgiveness' ft the vocal talents of Etta Bond, on 11th December.

Back in 1999, the Mets were almost bought by Cablevision. Would they be any worse off than they are today?
Jeff Wilpon speaks about the Mets' first base situation, finances, radio move, and more.
The neighborhood around Citi Field will be getting a tremendous upgrade, as the "chop shops" will be torn up and replaced with commercial and residential space.
Was Sandy Alderson telling the truth when he told Mets season ticket holders that the lack of spending on the team was his choice?
On the joy of doom, or why Bernie Madoff might be the best thing that ever happened to the Mets.
So I'm gonna be doing one of these every day until Xmas and was hoping for some trademark AA snark to go with it. What do you guys think the plot of this movie would be?
The Mets are presently hampered with the decision regarding whether Jose Reyes should receive a long-term extension. But if they resolve it, is it worth it to push all the chips in for a postseason run in 2011?
Jeff Wilpon's apology to the players: "You know Daddy doesn't really hate you guys. Jose, he said you were a racehorse and Daddy doesn't shoot those unless they hurt their...ah legs…ah um….Carlos, he said only a tiny 30 % of your whole being sucks….and Wright…well fu*k, Dad's right about him." Are we good fellas?
Confused about the Wilpon/Madoff mess? Check out this post to sort through the facts.
Steve Phillips talks about his years-long relationship with the Wilpons and opines about their involvement with Bernie Madoff. Also, note the bookshelf behind Phillips in this video. Among other things, he has a copy of The New Bill James New Historical Baseball Abstract.

Seahawks superstitions? There is a reason Bud Light has a commercial on TV, the one where it says "turn your label". I have had reputation for years of when I attend a game the Seahawks always win. If I leave a game early and they are ahead with the score?, they will lose. Superstitions for me while watching at home?
· No food until Halftime
· I have to wear my Seahawks Cap that was given to me by The Sea Gals
· I watch TV in our kitchen (bigger unit). If they need help I move to Living room (smaller unit)
· Red wine or soda, no beer for me
· Chicken dishes, no beef
· I watch 1st Quarter, last 3 mins of 2nd Quarter, in and out for 3rd Quarter. 4th Quarter is a must to watch for me!
· No talking while game is on (a weakness because I like to chat all along the way)…Karen and girls rule of no talking….Sunday will be a challenge for me.
