A chance to get it off your chest
Thanks Em. Head and brick wall have clashed severely this weekend past. Think head may be winning.
Throw one more Candy Crush invite at me. Just one. Go on. I dare you. Or send one of those ridiculous fridge magnet style posts my way. Please. I'm sure my actions will be defensible in any court, and I'm just gagging for a bit of violent release after the past six months.
Mine would be simple for my work lot.
Yes, I'm eating rice, I don't care if you think it's too early, or needs some kind of sauce.
No, I'm not drinking urine, and that gag gets less funny than it started.
It's peppermint tea, no I don't have to explain why to you.
What do I eat at home? The answer is the same as the last 10times you asked.
I look too slim do I? And that's alright to just bark out is it? Can I say you look a bit too fat? Is that alright?
I probably actually weigh more than you, as despite being tubby you're 5ft 4...height makes a big difference!
You saw me running today did you? That's because I tend to run most days, quite close to work....
(repeat at least 5 or 6 times a week with different people)
Quite tedious!
Ah yes ouch. I am not really on speedy sneakers and therefore leading, I am an improving runner A doing all the races on the grand prix.
Just some comment on the TdF with GC being the way it is, it would appear likely that in addition to the glory of a stage win, the team winning tomorrow's stage will also take yellow. The following are the highest placed riders for each team and therefore the riders who are most likely (not guaranteed) to be in yellow tomorrow evening should their team win the stage.
1 Jan Bakelants (Bel) RadioShack Leopard 12:21:27 2 Julien Simon (Fra) Sojasun 0:00:01 3 Simon Gerrans (Aus) Orica-GreenEdge 4 Michal Kwiatkowski (Pol) Omega Pharma-Quick Step 5 Edvald Boasson Hagen (Nor) Sky Procycling 7 David Millar (GBr) Garmin-Sharp 8 Sergey Lagutin (Uzb) Vacansoleil-DCM Pro Cycling Team 9 Cadel Evans (Aus) BMC Racing Team 10 Romain Bardet (Fra) AG2R La Mondiale 11 Nicolas Roche (Irl) Team Saxo-Tinkoff 12 Jurgen Van Den Broeck (Bel) Lotto Belisol 16 Damiano Cunego (Ita) Lampre-Merida 17 Eduard Vorganov (Rus) Katusha 19 Alejandro Valverde Belmonte (Spa) Movistar Team 29 Peter Sagan (Svk) Cannondale Pro Cycling 36 Bauke Mollema (Ned) Belkin Pro Cycling Team 41 Arnold Jeannesson (Fra) FDJ 43 Davide Malacarne (Ita) Team Europcar 70 Christophe Le Mevel (Fra) Cofidis, Solutions Credits 109 Tom Dumoulin (Ned) Team Argos-Shimano 0:13:01
I think we can probably discount Tom Dumoulin who, despite being the best placed Argos-Shimano rider is 13 minutes down. All the rest are within one second. Comment http://d2ride.co.uk/News-and-Blog.php
spam? or just an inability to write on the right thread!?
No idea... I thought it was spam.
Simpsons underpants and some cartoon socks. Really? You must be in your 50s.Just to clarify - this was a guy in the gym changing room yesterday, not some random lover I picked up...Department of Transport - when you say road resurfacing will be for "3 nights" please add that it "doesn't include alternate Thursdays and every Friday, Saturday, Sunday or Monday - coz we don't work those" It may have taken 9 days (as opposed to the 3 we were expecting) but the new lines are very clear. Thank You.
Dustin, I remember some bloke moaning on the Silverstone half marathon thread of about 2004/5 that he was "beaten by some kid wearing Bart Simpson socks"
that kid? Yours truly
From those glorious days where you didn't overthink anything, you just went and did a race...
nowadays it's all racing shoes, tiny socks, wickable vests, eating at a precise time etc

Despicable Me 2. I fell asleep in the cinema.
In Norway that film is called 'Gruesome Meh 2'. Says it all, really.
gotta ask how you came by that snippet of information?
Anything in particular about it that wasn't good Miffi? Taking the little one to see it at the weekend.
so there I am washing my hands after taking a leak, just before I go for a run. Door to trap 2 swings open, and outsteps a middle aged, couple of stone overweight man, as naked (but with more body hair) as the day he was born. No towel, no footwear, no pants, nothing.Except he was carrying a phone.Now I hope that he wasn't browsing images on it. I don't mind nudity, I don't care if its swinging about mid-change by the lockers, but to wander into the separate toilet area. please, no. Out of interest, do you take that phone into the shower with you? tw*t.
Cinders - I loved Dispicable Me 2 - I did think it might be a wee bit scary (intense) for my nearly 4 year old grand daughter though.

Dr. Paul Fader used the following technologies during his Fall 2012 BIO 110 – Principles of Biology class.
He used MasteringBiology from Pearson. This allowed the instructor to pick and choose from review questions, videos, animations and learning activities. He selected assignments from each chapter and created an assignment that was posted to BlackBoard Learn. He also utilized BlackBoard Learn to have the students turn in lab assignments.
He used ScreenFlow to create an overview of the PowerPoints. He provided a summary of the main concepts that were introduced in the chapters of the textbook. The ScreenFlow videos were then uploaded to BlackBoard.
He used Google Docs to create a spreadsheet that allowed the students to enter data from an experiment. This produced a class data sheet that all students could see. Students then created a graph either in MS Excel or Google Docs from the class data.
He also used the ShowMe App on his iPad to work genetic problems that were then projected to the screen using AirServer.

What's good at Matchbox?
Planning a visit to Matchbox in Rockville. What's particularly good there? Can't eat spicy food, but I'm game for anything else.
Hard to go wrong with the sliders and french fries. Some folks rave about their pizzas, but I think they're just okay.
Agreed - the sliders are really good. Sometimes the pizza is amazing, sometimes okay. It really depends.
But the one thing I never fail to order at Matchbox are the doughnuts with baileys for dessert.
Matchbox is the only restaurant where I have asked for sliders medium rare and they actually came that way. I thought the pizza was pretty decent.
beet salad with goat cheese and field greens, the pizza with wild mushrooms and soprosetta and the sliders all were good
re: woodleyparkhound
I concur with WPH -- the sliders and onion strings were notable when they first graced the menu, but are not worth the calories, the salt or the noise. And the pizza's no good, either.
re: Marty L.
I've found the 8th Street Matchbox superior in every way to the Chinablock location, particularly regarding service and noise levels.
Before I knew I had gluten issues (or had them), I was addicted to the sliders and what was essentially a meat lovers pizza. Used to go a couple times a month for it at the Chinatown location. It was a regular thing for me. Ohhh how I miss it. One of my favorite awful for me meals.
re: ktmoomau
2 of us went to rockville one about a week ago and we split a crabcake and the spicy pizza "fire and smoke" and had leftovers. we enjoyed it and will return. will have to try the sliders. also we got a dessert -bread pudding and it was a sugar coma after, but soooo good!
re: MoCoMe
Thanks to everyone for the suggestions. We had the sliders and a veggie pizza. Both were very good, but I was practically swooning in ecstasy over the sliders and the accompanying enormous mound of onion strings.
We had the doughnuts for dessert, and polished them off. They reminded me of the loukoumades I loved on my trips to Greece (but so far haven't found locally except for once at a Greek church festival), with the espresso sauce standing in for the Greek honey.
I'd order those sliders again any time. They were cooked exactly as ordered (medium rare) and were the best sliders I've ever had.
Sometime I do want to try the crabcake or the crab-crusted rockfish -- that sounded intriguing. I should have asked how they managed to crab-encrust a rockfish ...
Only been to the ones in Chinatown and Capitol HIll, but I really like their gelato cookie sandwiches. I think the pizzas are good as well. Order a pizza with your choice of toppings, but keep it basic -- I like nothing more than fresh basil, mozzarella and some cremini mushrooms. If you have to have meat on our pizza, go for the prosciutto.

Recovery from total loss.

I understand how, with the right backups, and "bootable media", I could recovery from most problems, but don't know how, or even if it's possible, to recover from a total loss, like a fire, or theft.
Insurance would cover replacing the laptop, but would I be able to recover my "systems". A new laptop may have slightly different hardware, and its drivers, not to mention operating system, so I presume it would not be as simple as "overlaying" my old stuff. I have Acronis, and ext hard drive (hopefully wouldn't be "lost", in the same event).
Don't have this issue, now, but, after the event would be a bit late to think about it.

Have you thought about 'Cloud Storage', that way all your files could be stored and accessed anywhere in the world- provided you had the right access codes.
I appreciate it is not as fast to upload to the cloud, however set to do an overnight upload should fix the problem, apart from if you have a broadband limit on your account.

Even the most seasoned jet-setter has to make many different decisions in preparation for an upcoming trip. However, experience and some basic knowledge will make it much easier to map out your travel plans and itinerary. This article contains helpful information for anyone who wants to travel.
You should not take any extra belongings that are worth a considerable amount money. Too many items often burden travelers with additional responsibility, which increases the possibility of these items getting lost or stolen.
Create a list of all the things you need to pack before a trip. Put together a list of things you must take with you. You can start doing this a couple of months out, but should be finished about a week before your trip. Even last minute packing won't be as stressful, when you have a list to reference. It will also take the panic out of forgetting anything.
Take clothespins along the next time you travel. While you may not usually think of packing clothespins, they can be very useful.
Work off your flying anxiety with a jog before you head to the airport. Longer flights can be boring. Sitting without being able to move can make both your back and your legs cramp up. Stretching or working out before taking a flight can help reduce soreness.
Tip the bell boy and housekeeper when staying in a nice place. An appropriate tip is considered $1 for each piece of luggage you have, and $2-$5 per day for the housekeeping service. Tipping the people who assist you during your stay will help to develop a relationship with the staff, and entice them to provide you with optimum service.
Be sure to dress in casual, simple shoes that can be quickly removed. They will have to be taken off when you reach the security checkpoint. Your level of comfort is crucial. There is a bit of walking at the airport, but also a lot of sitting, so they don't need to have a great deal of support. Ideally, you want to be wearing sandals or even flip-flops.
Many stores overcharge for these products, minimizing your savings. Try different techniques for folding that save space when you're packing your clothes. Some of these techniques can give you much more room in your bag.
You can find great vistas and unique vegetation in the desert. Deserts offer a special experience for the first time visitor. It should be the goal of anyone interested in the world to experience the wonder of the desert at least once.
Make sure that your passports are valid. Every country has their own set of laws regarding passports. Many will not let you enter their country if your passport expires in a certain window of time. This can be from 3-6 months of your trip, though there are some places where that time frame can be 8-12 months.
Planning a trip can be very daunting. When you have a plan, good advice, and the right information, travel can be a breeze. Use the ideas in this article to help you plan your trip, hassle free.

O'Hara business distributing earth-friendly sealant
Imagine a Pittsburgh spring without pot holes.
Jim Campbell, of O'Hara's design and construction firm PWCampbell, says it would be possible with a new product called Ecodur 201. His Atlantic Technologies Group has partnered with the manufacturer, Castagra Products, to distribute the sustainable sealant along the east coast.
Made primarily of gypsum and natural castor plant oils, the coating provides a self-polymerizing system that lasts longer and costs less than urethane products, says Campbell, whose grandfather founded the RIDC Park-based construction firm in 1910.
"It's made from one of the most plentiful products on earth," Campbell says of the gypsum, which is extracted from natural deposits, recycled drywall or by-products of the coal-fired power industry. "It is 100 percent renewable."
Invented in the 1990s, Ecodur 201 was first used heavily on Canadian ferry boat decks because it could withstand below-freezing temperatures. It is able to expand and contract rather than crack and break; Ecodur 201 can be applied in temperatures as low as 0 degrees.
But a manual application kept the product cost-prohibitive until a spray technology advanced its accessibility.
PW Campbell is responsible for design and construction of financial institutions in 13 states from New York to Illinois. Local examples of their work are the First Commonwealth banks throughout the Lower Valley.
Campbell said he was drawn to the new business venture because of the commitment to eco-friendliness and sustainability.
"This stuff is so safe you can eat it. It can be put on a rubber roof and extend the life 10 years rather than doing it with tar," he said.
Campbell said the non-toxic product is gaining steam as an interior liner for oil tanks because it lasts longer and adheres better than epoxy.
He sees potential uses in transportation, drilling and fracking, flooring, roofing, insulation, aeronautics and commercial construction.
"It could be used to coat and prevent corrosion and repair concrete parking decks, bridges, roads, roofs and potholes," he said. "This product sets so quickly that you wouldn't have to close roads for long stretches to fix the potholes. You'd spray it and it would set. There's no downside to this."
His only obstacle so far is getting people to try something new, Campbell said.
"It sounds too good to be true, I know. But I think you'll be seeing it in a lot of uses in the future."

I can't find anything on the net that will help me figure this out, if someone could please help you would be a lifesaver.
my function is given a property name and the object. Using reflection it returns the value of that property. It works perfectly however if i pass it a Nullable DateTime it gives me null and no matter what i try i cant get it to work.
public static string GetPropValue(String name, Object obj)
Type type = obj.GetType();
System.Reflection.PropertyInfo info = type.GetProperty(name);
if (info == null) { return null; }
obj = info.GetValue(obj, null);
return obj.ToString();
in the above function obj is null. How do i get it to read the DateTime?

Katie is X-C team captain and our first scholarship winner from Ursuline. Tommy Zabielski of Salesianum is our boy's winner.

Several intrepid harriers enjoyed the 50th Annual Brandywine End to End Hike on April 9th. The 36.2-mile course starts at the Horseshoe Trail in PA and ends at BCSP, following the creek. Read Marty Lessner's excellent story about the adventure here. Finishers were:
Through athletic endeavors and competition, many of us have learned that fear can be tamed; that on a team the whole is more than the sum of its parts; and that the ability to be heroic lies to a surprising degree, within ourselves. Unfortunately, contrary to these fundamental lessons, this week the University of Delaware's Athletic Department, when faced with difficult challenges made the decision that required the least amount of character. The University of Delaware will drop the Men's Running program after the 2011 Outdoor Track & Field season, the final chapter of a team with a 100 year history. The athletic department looked for the easy direction. They rattled off convenient excuses, blaming the gender inadequacies of Title IX. They left many active athletes with no avenue of recourse. Read nothing in to the recent announcement, the decision was made many months ago, and most unfortunately this decision is FINAL.
Many of our Sports Club members have asked, "How can this happen?" "Can anything be done to save the program?" This happened because the University and the Athletic Director have chosen the path they wish to pursue. Their decision shows little concern for current athletes, and the announcement seemed to hide the true reason. It has chosen to eliminate a non-revenue producing sport. It has chosen to use the facilities to assist programs that give the University more prestige prior to a fundraising capital campaign. The football program needs more. The football program gives the University national attention, which ultimately gives the University more money. The answer to the second question is: no, there appears to be nothing that can be done to save the program. During situations such as these it is easy to point fingers, call names and make accusations. But as an organization, the Delaware Sports Club cannot do such things.
Of course many of us are concerned about the athletes that this affects immediately. For several of these men, they excel in their role as both student AND athlete. But now they are faced with the decision of transferring to a different school or giving up their passion. For many there is another great concern, how will this decision affect our grassroots running programs, our future high school and elementary school athletes?
There are more than one dozen Delaware high school coaches that have gone through the University of Delaware Running Program. Each of these coaches hopes to instill the love of running to young athletes. There are countless numbers of parents in our local community that hope their sons or daughters can enjoy a lifelong love of running. If there are no opportunities to run beyond high school, what reason is there for an athlete to dream? The University of Delaware is an excellent institution which provides many affordable opportunities to in-state residents, but without a male running program, those academic opportunities are being taken away from several local athletes. Our community will be left to deal with the consequences of this decision and how they affect our younger athletes. Perhaps this is another reason for disappointment and anger expressed by so many, they are afraid youth running may wither and die.
If a running community has a heart, in the state of Delaware, our heart and soul is Coach Jim Fischer. Coach Fischer is more than just the head of the Men and Women's Running Programs at the University of Delaware, he is a mentor to many and truly a friend to all. To many lesser in his profession, the title 'coach' is just a title. But Jim Fischer embodies all that is good in a coach. He sees potential in every person he encounters, he provides encouragement for every level of athlete. For years, Jim has selflessly sacrificed his time to: train an athlete; assist a recreational runner; or support a non-profit organization. His actions do more than just motivate, he inspires others to want to become a coach. We are thankful that he will remain with the women's team and as a central part of this community.
Since it appears that money and national prestige are the key motivating factors behind the University's decision, it may be your only direct way to protest. But your voice speaks louder when it is in unison with others. So tell your friends, tell your work associates, tell your bosses of the University's unfortunate course of action – let them know why you are unhappy. If money made them make this decision, perhaps the lack of money will make them rethink it several years from now.
As a community, we are mourning this loss and will be affected by it for some time. For the Delaware Sports Club, our efforts and mission remain the same, but we are now burdened with a certain degree of urgency. More than ever we must ensure our club is an advocate for the running community throughout the State of Delaware. This challenge must be met by your continuing to support running and ensure opportunities at every level of ability and every age– elementary and high schools; college; and for adults and seniors.
Michael Monagle
Delaware Sports Club, VP of Running

An alluring laird...He was known throughout the kingdom as Hawk, legendary predator of the battlefield and the boudoir. No woman could refuse his touch, but no woman ever stirred his heart—until a vengeful fairy tumbled Adrienne de Simone out of modern-day Seattle and into medieval Scotland. Captive in a century not her own, entirely too bold, too outspoken, she was an irresistible challenge to the sixteenth-century rogue. Coerced into a marriage with Hawk, Adrienne vowed to keep him at arm''s length—but his sweet seduction played havoc with her resolve.A prisoner in time...She had a perfect "no" on her perfect lips for the notorious laird, but Hawk swore she would whisper his name with desire, begging for the passion he longed to ignite within her. Not even the barriers of time and space would keep him from winning her love. Despite her uncertainty about following the promptings of her own passionate heart, Adrienne''s reservations were no match for Hawk''s determination to keep her by his side. . . .

Afghan Children Legitimate Targets, Says U.S. Lt. Col., As They Might Have "Hostile Intent"Submitted by fonzdrew on Wed, 12/05/2012 - 11:31
Reason: When the war gets to this level--whether or not we believe the Army's assertions that the kids it's killing in Afghanistan deserved it--it's time to rethink whether you are winning hearts and minds, nation rebuilding, or just involved in an endless insane game of blowing shit up and making people so mad they give you what you think is a legitimate excuse to keep blowing shit up.
When Marines in Helmand province sized up shadowy figures that appeared to be emplacing an improvised explosive device, it looked like a straightforward mission. They got clearance for an airstrike, a Marine official said, and took out the targets.
It wasn't that simple, however. Three individuals hit were 12, 10 and 8 years old, leading the International Security Assistance Force in Kabul to say it may have "accidentally killed three innocent Afghan civilians."

How about that biased media?
Because this article sticks completely to the facts right? Yeah, sure, let's look at the first "quote:"
" 'look...for children with potential hostile intent,' and if we find them, kill them." 'Said' the colonel.
Sure, he meant trying to kill. Because when you go to a bar on friday, and say you're looking for a hottie, you actually mean you want to rape and murder them. Great journalism.
And of course, when they saw three individuals digging, in a road, in a known IED emplacement area, they had NO IDEA they were children. Go look on youtube what the video feed from a UAV looks like and tell me if you know the difference between a young teenager and an adult from 10,000 feet. How do they know children were killed? Because their parents came to a base, reported the incident, told them they had kindly sent their children to gather fuel in a minefield.
How's this for the real story? "There were 316 documented cases of underage recruitment in the war last year, most of them attributed to the Taliban..." (Military Times) Think this war has become a waste of lives and money? Think its extending conflict and creating a deadlier world? Awesome, but maybe there isn't a need to make up war criminal stories so you can feel better about being such a great person protesting on the internet.
Civilians. Better yet, CHILDREN. As DECLARED targets.
Okay. So... NOW THEY BRAG about their CALCULATED intents OPENLY.
And RATIONALIZE ABOUT THEM with english adjectives, adverbs, and connectors.
How DARE that
of Humanity call itself "MILITARY" or "DEFENSE" ?
I suggest a more appropriate choosing : SERIAL KILLERS.
Wait. Serial killers don't actually know WHY they are that way.
But that
does :
they think they are GOD.
"I'm glad to introduce you to Mr. Satan. HIMSELF." :
"Cyril" pronounced "see real". I code stuff.
"To study and not think is a waste. To think and not study is dangerous." -- Confucius
What kind of twisted logic?!
I think the Lt.Col mother might have "Hostile Intent"... Should we target her?
When Fascism goes to sleep, it checks under the bed for Ron Paul!
It didn't seem to bother most
It didn't seem to bother most Americans when the US killed 500,000 Iraqi children by starvation and diseases due to US sanctions nor didn't seem like a big deal when the US military through the use of depleted uranium in their munitions,bombs and missiles brought about 500,000 Iraqi babies being born deformed and most have died.Unfortunately for the rest of these third world countries the majority of Americans see you as less than human." The US has anew credibility. What we say goes." George Bush,NBC Nightly News,Feb.02, 1191.We are a nation that has also sit back and allowed the abortion of 57,000,000 million babies since the Roe vs. Wade decision.Once Hitler came to power, abortions was quickly legalized but even then,500,000 abortions were performed each year.

Lots of ignorant people "led" and manipulated by lots of sick and twisted people = lots of despicable activity.

So, we do things to folks who MIGHT do something??
Here is a link to the Military Times Article
I ask just about every solider in uniform that I see in public
why are we still kiiling people and having Americans die in Afghanistan?
Typical Answers include:
We have to get things in order before we leave.
There are still some crazy people over there we need to take care of.
Gotta finish our bin ness.
Whats your problem? You a fcuking Pussy?
I could tell you but then I'd have to kill you. (ha ha ha)
No comment
I don't know but I'm done in 1 year, 2 months, 4 days, etc
You tell me...
All just wonderful reasons that we keep killing innocent people in a far away land that had NOTHING to do with 9/11.
HEY - COSTAS - why don't you go on a rant about this????
This is the twisted, crazy, orwellian world we are living in. Not as far off from the Hunger Games as we think.
Dodging American bullets is considered aggressive behavior.
At least by our military/political leaders.
Those who live by the sword...
Will perish by the sword.
"Jesus answered them: 'Truly, truly, I say to you, everyone who commits sin is a slave to sin. The slave does not remain in the house forever; the son remains forever. So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.'" (John 8:34-36)
I only ask to see the beginning.
Now I want to see this truth in my lifetime more than ever, David.
Yes, now I want to see this Sword of Justice come to do what it has to do.
I only ask to see it BEGIN.
It will make me go with more peace.
Indifference of the many before such things announced or done is becoming almost unbearable.
On this end.

"To study and not think is a waste. To think and not study is dangerous." -- Confucius
You are not alone.
Luke: 18:7 Won't God give justice to his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night? Will he delay long to help them? 18:8 I tell you, he will give them justice speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?"
Romans: 8:20 For the creation was subjected to futility – not willingly but because of God who subjected it – in hope 8:21 that the creation itself will also be set free from the bondage of decay into the glorious freedom of God's children. 8:22 For we know that the whole creation groans and suffers together until now. 8:23 Not only this, but we ourselves also, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we eagerly await our adoption, the redemption of our bodies. 8:24 For in hope we were saved. Now hope that is seen is not hope, because who hopes for what he sees? 8:25 But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with endurance.
"Jesus answered them: 'Truly, truly, I say to you, everyone who commits sin is a slave to sin. The slave does not remain in the house forever; the son remains forever. So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.'" (John 8:34-36)
Screw the Geneva Conventions, right?
Before you accuse me of being in favor of global governance, let me remind you that I am in favor of SELF governance, and I suppose that is "global" but not how the Rothschilds think of "global." I am dealing, best I can, with what IS, not what I wish for. The Geneva Conventions exist, our military is SUPPOSED to be bound by them. The fact that this LEADER of heavily armed men will so publicly flaunt his war crimes shows the rest of the world just how corrupt the US government and military have become. If Americans don't catch on soon, we can expect the rest of the world to declare war on us. Our "big, bad military" is falling further and further behind technologically, but our arrogance and cruelty are second to none.
Love or fear? Choose again with every breath.
The Geneva Conventions are redundant, but not bad, IMO
I wouldn't feel the need to make this sort of disclaimer.
You are on the right side. It is sad it ever had to be written and signed in the first place (to anyone who already understands the Golden Rule) but the Geneva Conventions, IMO, aren't a coercitive set of rules.
The Geneva Conventions mostly, if not exclusively, tells about what MUST NOT be done - what is INHUMANE - for armed forces to do during war times.
"... are rules that apply in times of armed conflicts."
They do not regulate or forcefully impose things that "SHOULD" or MUST be done against people's lives or freedoms when there is NO war or threat, life endangered context.
You know, VERY MUCH UNLIKE the sole purpose of THE U.N. REGULATIONS INFAMY (including during peace time), otherwise.
I had to write an essay in high school on what motivated writing them - treatment of the wounded, etc - and what are the inherent limits of such texts - I got a D because my conclusion was that anyway the only supreme authority one could reasonably, possibly trust to be incorruptible in interpreting those correctly and ALWAYS is GOD, man being imperfect and corruptible any time ... knowing that teacher, I didn't care about the grade, you get the picture...

When you are on someone else's land for no immediate purpose, you can expect them to fight to the last man, woman and child. One officer was asked how to win in Vietnam, and he said to kill everyone over the age of five.

Celtic Crossroads Brings Traditional Irish Music to Sarastoa's Van Wezel Tonight
Celtic Crossroads will perform at the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall tonight, February 21, 2013.
Celtic music is steeped in history, and carries a tumultuous story of reemergence in modern society. Not many people are aware that practicing traditional Irish arts was outlawed in the homeland less than 100 years ago and unlawful gatherings at crossroads were tinged with danger. Nothing was written down and Irish music was kept secretively in the hearts of its people. The cast of Celtic Crossroads, all sons and daughters of musicians, steeped in the tradition of these handed down tunes, play with the wild, raucous relish of freedom, in tribute to their relatives and their country. Celtic Crossroads is a glorious elevation of a new, young generation whom are boldly redefining Celtic music on the world stage.
Tickets are priced from $10-$45. For more information, call The Box Office at 941-953-3368, or toll free at 800-826-9303, or visit www.VanWezel.org.

It used to be so easy — so blessedly easy — to tell the difference between secular and Christian rock bands. The shrill U2 wanna-bes? Christian. The guys with the tattoos and dilated pupils? Secular. But that was yesterday. Somewhere along the line, these once-useful distinctions collapsed into each other like a pair of revival-tent worshippers with heat stroke. Consider the Scream the Prayer Tour, headlined by Haste the Day, a traveling congregation of inked-up metalcore rock bands that — oh, yes — just happen to be spreading the word of Jesus. No longer must Christian rock bands limit themselves to scripture-based lyrics and non-threatening 4/4 rhythms. Now they have hip, un-Christian-y handles like Gwen Stacy (named after Mary Jane's slutty rival in Spider-Man) and machine-gun percussion designed to make your ears explode. So what makes them specifically "Christian"? Uh, voting tendencies? In an era where a towering fuck-up like Scott Stapp can abuse drugs, throw glass bottles at his wife, and still insist he's a "Christian artist," maybe it's time for Christian rock fans to set stricter limits on the genre. And be quick about it, before these devout poseurs start geeking bats.

First Community Climate Fair at UC Riverside is a Hot Event
Hundreds attend the free event to participate in games and activities, and learn about the impact of climate change on the planet
RIVERSIDE, Calif. — The rain did not dampen the success of the first community climate fair held today (Nov. 12) at the University of California, Riverside. The free parking, free food, and easy access to information about climate change and its impact ensured that by noon more than 450 fairgoers had taken advantage of the games and activities the "Refresh Riverside! A Community Climate Fair" offered.
"By 11 o'clock we were running out of programs!" said Mary Droser, a professor of in the Department of Earth Sciences, who led the effort to organize the fair. "The free parking was a key attraction, too. Clearly, moving the fair indoors did not affect a good turnout. All the booths here have been immensely popular."
The fair, which takes place from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. in Room 302, Highlander Union Building (HUB), featured booths and activities such as Sea Level Limbo, Tornado Twister and Climate Change Jeopardy. In the "Watts Up!" booth, fairgoers got to see the wattage that different types of light bulbs use, which informed them of their energy options. In the "Plant a Seed" booth, held outdoors near the HUB, children got a hands-on education on sustainable gardening.
Armeen Mobasher, 12, of Riverside, who attended the fair with his father, said he had learned today that sustainability would help future generations. He planned to check out all the booths at the fair.
The Carbon Dioxide booth appealed most to Jaime Holz of Riverside, who brought her son Joshua, soon to be 12, to the fair.
"That booth taught us how much carbon we as a family are contributing, and what we can do to help," she said. "It was really helpful to see what our carbon footprint looked like. If the fair takes place next year also, I will surely attend."
Rich Minnich, the chair of the Department of Earth Sciences, hopes the event can take place every year.
"Global climate change and its trickle-down effects have become big issues in environmental change," he said while volunteering at a booth. "We need to remind ourselves that through industrialization over the last 200 years we have been changing our planet, affecting climate in ways we don't even know."
Free food at the fair provided consisted of hot dogs, snow cones, and cotton candy to represent the roles that heat, cold and clouds, respectively, play in our lives.
Experts from UCR and NASA-Jet Propulsion Laboratory answered questions about greenhouse gases and their role in warming the planet, why temperature is predicted to go up in some places and down in others, and how impactful clouds are in raising or lowering the Earth's temperature.
The NASA scientists demonstrated with videos how scientists track Earth's climate from space. Along with UCR scientists, they explained how the melting of land ice leads to sea level rise, how extreme weather is connected to global warming, how global climate change affects ecosystems, and how people can live more sustainably.
The community climate fair is being sponsored in large part by NASA; UCR's Office of the Chancellor, the College of Natural and Agricultural Sciences, and the Department of Earth Sciences; the Riverside Unified School District; and the Moscarello Family Foundation.
