Pathocracy - Government run by PsychopathsSubmitted by dalesvp on Sun, 01/30/2011 - 15:25
A most excellent article. Worth the time to read
"I submit that the United States government is under the control of psychopaths, and the infestation is nearing completion; the point at which nothing can stop the oncoming violence. But that's not all, because above the federal government is a ruling cartel of off-shore psychopaths that have secretly been planning a one-world tyranny for more than 100 years."

Leadership Trumps Psychopaths
The Coca-Cola Company was run from 1923 until 1954 by a man who was a real leader. One of his mottos was:
Concentration is to the Mind,
What Exercise is to the Body,
What Giving is to the Soul.
I never met the man, but from reading about him I'd say he was one of those folks who could not be bought, had his head on tight and his heart in the right place. The Coca-Cola Company did very well as his team of execs and the many employees walked the walk.
The man Robert Woodruff took his huge fortune and put it to very good use giving where it was needed... and given anonomously. There is a story that during the days after MLK was shot, and while other citys rioted, it was Woodruff who called the mayor of Atlanta and told him he'd see fit that any and all overtime for the Atlanta Police Department would be paid for. He said on the phone "Do you understand me... it's covered". Meanwhile other cities burned, Atlanta stayed calm.

this is the worst EVER! Ever ever ever ever ever!
As a historian, I have to laugh at introductions like this one. "Did they know X was going F them?" Not only is the premised damaged, the examples are disjointed from one another.
In fact, there is only one common thread uniting them all, and which is conspicuously absent from the American Apathocracy:
In Germany, it was crisis that brought Hitler to power, swearing to pull the nation from the disgrace and humiliation of the past.
In Turkish Armenia, it was Dro and his Dashnak buddies who were paid by the Tsar to terrorize the Turks. The docile locals should have seen death marches into Syria from their windows!
In China, the country was wracked by civil war, famine, disease, occupation, warlordism, petty strife, endemic corruption. But it was only Mao who promised to eliminate the landlords oppressing the peasants.
Same with Korea. If you think the North Korean people did not welcome Kim Il Sung and his reforms, you're uninformed.
In Russia, peasants being mass slaughtered for the Tsar's great game was the last straw. The people were perfectly happy to welcome Lenin and Trotsky.
And America?
What crisis? Where's the strife? Starvation? Corruption? It may be coming, but its not here yet. The social safety net is still working. 44,000,000 on food stamps, millions on unemployment, millions on welfare. There's plenty of crumbs for the plutocrats to feed the unwashed pigeons in this country.
Unlike Germany in 1932, Russia in 1917, China in 1947, Turkish Armenia in 1915, and Korea in 1950.
"Cowards & idiots can come along for the ride but they gotta sit in the back seat!"
the "people" of America were "perfectly happy" to welcome--
Barak Obama.
And then . . . ?
These despots could never have taken over if things hadn't been in crisis. Often people who have not thought through the various consequences will welcome ANY change, not just positive change.
I understand your reservations, and I understand what the article is saying as well.
It's all a horrific mess.
Trying to understand every possible aspect of it and trying not to collectivize, trying to maintain *our* individuality and the 'right' to know the truth is the best answer at this point--
and being as prepared as possible.
GWB and his cronies at the fed put *us* into crisis with the baillouts, which most Americans did not want--
and with his perpetual wars--
so to many Barak Obama looked 'good', and now . . . watch as things grow even more tangled.
it's hard to be awake; it's easier to dream--
run the government...makes sense to me...no hearts...
"First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they attack you, then you win!"
"The belief is worthless if the fear of social and physical punishment overrides the belief."
All governments are run by
All governments are run by Psychopaths. As are every other organization beyond a certain size. I cannot and will not ever be any other way.
There is no clear delineation between a group that just happen to be psychopaths, and others who happen not to be. It's a continuum, with everyone possessing some traits associated with psychopathy to varying degree. Deciding who to classify as a psychopath and who to not, is really just a matter of setting the cutoff point at a certain place.
Now, the traits that are psychopathic, are exactly the same traits that lead to leadership positions, namely a willingness to go to extreme lengths it ones will to power. People of less psychopathic tendencies, simply will not go the same length as those with more, in their quest to dominate others. Which, of course, leads to the one willing to go the furthest "winning." Things will never be any different.
In small groups, like sub 80-250 member tribes or friend groups, exercise of those traits in too large a measure, will over time get one branded as evil, so there is some checks. But once organizations, private or government, are larger than that, ones reputation is no longer kept in check by the necessity for continuous first person interaction, making reputation management just another tool that the one willing to go the furthest to gain power, will use to a greater degree than those less psychopathic.
Hence, over time, every large organization will be dominated by psychopaths. Always have, always will.
Instead of that being the problem, the problem is rather that those less psychopathic does generally not recognize this, instead going along with the psychopaths' reputation enhancement, and believing he is where he is due to some other form of supposed greatness, like smarts, educatedness, niceness or whatever. None of which they are able to continuously monitor in the first person, but are instead lead to believe by the psychopaths willingness to go to greater lengths than others when it comes to imprinting those traits on himself in peoples mind.
Hence, the maxim that you will always and forever be ruled not just by a scumbag (psychopath), but by the single scummiest of all available scumbags.
And the question of which government is the best, needs to be settled in the following light: You will be ruled by the biggest scum around. That is a given. Given that, how much power do you want that scum to have over you?
Liberty will win when enough people get around to figuring out the answer to that question, like the Founders once did. An answer that remained at least somewhat adhered to, until the advent of mass communications gave new generations of psychopaths a new tool of image enhancement, so powerful that it trumped the Founders' hard won wisdom.
We need to bring that hard won insight back to the fore.
I agree
But we see now the "limited" power that was defined then has, over a period of time, been greatly expanded upon. The nature of the scummiest scumbag will be to expand that power.
The current contract in place is not effective enough to check the power of the scummiest of scum.
"An answer that remained at least somewhat adhered to, until the advent of mass communications gave new generations of psychopaths a new tool of image enhancement, so powerful that it trumped the Founders' hard won wisdom."
At every turn since inception the scum were wrangling the power to their corner not just recently. I'm not sure what you are talking about in reference to image enhancement.
I think it was Jefferson who
I think it was Jefferson who advised something like a revolution per generation, to overthrow nascent scum and keep those tendencies you mention towards mission creep in check. Whoever it was, he was, in hindsight, probably right.
By that measure, we're way, way overdue. No wonder our country is so crewed up.
I realize the scum started getting busy before the ink on the Constitution was even dry. Heck, even Jefferson himself was not beyond engaging in overreach once he became President. But before effective one-to-many mass communication, at least those aspiring to power were more dependent on their immediate constituencies, whom they had little choice but to interact with on at least some personal level.
The ability to reach directly from the center, out to millions of individual homes and communities, via ever more pervasive communication channels, seems to have been a key enabler of at least the greatest excesses of the progressive era. Just look back at that era's high points. Very few communication (then broadcast network) channels, and those that existed, were heavily regulated, and concentrated in money and political centers. In that era, even something as positively unchallenging as Fox News and Rush Limbaugh would be unthinkable. Never mind pervasive access to DP and Mises.org.
Of course, the one thing Marx did get right, was how developments in the basis (technology, economy), drives the superstructure (ideology, humanities), instead of the other way around. So, as one-to-many, tightly controlled communication gives way to its many-to-many successors, I would expect ideology to change as well. Or, at least I hope it will.
This is good!

Excellent article.
Thanks for posting.
Food for thought
Has an extremist cult "wormed" its way into defacto control of America's military forces?
Controlling the military services through a "takeover" of the service academies and officer corps and, financed though moneyed special interests, achieving key control of all military oversight, both in congress and the executive branch, have religious extremists, a virtual American Taliban, become a threat to America and the world?
Through the bungling of high ranking members of a secretive "crusader cult," headquartered at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, can we now explain the mysterious failures of the "war on terror," the WMD hunt in Iraq and the Osama bin Laden fiasco, withholding the announcement of his death in 2001?
Many believe this cult has brought only scandal, drugs, corruption and rape to the military. Are they responsible for the condition of our current force, worn thin, nearly 40% under psychiatric treatment, powerful and often harmful medications mixed with a continual diet of right wing politics and mysterious quasi-Christian biblical prophesy.
I called into the Stephany Miller show...
... a while back and I said that that the real fight in the country was not between Democrats and Republicans, or conservatives versus liberals... but that the fight was between people of conscience and the psychopathic elite.
I called out the entire Congress but for a few. I specifically called out Pelosi, Obama, & Bush as examples of people who, by their actions and words, exhibited psychopathic character traits.
I told them these people (our elected politicians) are leading us to our ruin with smiles on their face and that the American people better wake up to this fact.

Item # TYR0023
Don't worry though, we have a lot more Women's Tri Tops in stock than that.
TYR Carbon Thin Strap Women's Tri Top $0.00
Don't wear more than you have to.
Given the undercurrent of heat during a triathlon, we commonly ask ourselves, why wear more than we have to? For this very reason, TYR created the Carbon Thin Strap Women's Tri Tank. It features the same top-tier fabrics as TYR's standard Carbon Tank, only with a minimal surface area to keep you cool and comfortable.
For the construction of Carbon Thin Strap Tri Tank, TYR pulled out all of the stops. Starting with the bulk of the composition, TYR incorporated a blend of nylon and spandex. Why these materials? Well, it all comes down to three key components: moisture management, comfort, and stretch. The nylon fibers of the fabric lend themselves to first two of these characteristics, as the material is lightweight and soft-to-the-touch. Accordingly, it pulls moisture away from the skin to the quick-drying surface of the material. As a result, you not only benefit from a dry, protective layer, but your skin also remains dry and free from moisture-induced chafing. Meanwhile, the spandex provides a four-way stretch to the material, enabling a complete freedom of movement within the top. Additionally, this allowed stretch enables the material to follow your diverse movements, preventing the top from resisting them. So, friction is nearly eliminated, bolstering the overall comfort of the top.
And knowing that the resulting lightweight material would be prone snags and wear, TYR also treated the fabric with Teflon. As a result, durability is increased, and as an added benefit, the top's aero- and hydrodynamics are also amplified. In addition to the aforementioned, TYR also included dedicated mesh inserts in order to increase stretch, ventilation, and moisture management. These panels have been constructed from a blend of nylon, polyester, Lycra, and carbon mesh. And while you're most likely familiar with the first three fibers, you're probably wondering, why carbon? Well, this material possesses natural anti-static properties that decrease the effects of atmospheric electrical interference, but it is also a major combatant of moisture. Additionally, carbon is also naturally antimicrobial. So, with all components combined, this fabric maintains a consistent thermo-regulation, while also keeping dry, comfortable, and free from rancorous odors.
In terms of fit, TYR cut this top with racing in mind. Accordingly, it possesses a next-to-skin fit that free from any wind flapping. The top has been cut high on the chest, leading to the back with thin straps. This provides ample support to the breasts, without digging into the armpits or becoming too poignant over the shoulders. At the back, you'll find that the top is shaped to fall around and between the scapulas. So, the rear structure runs just underneath the aforementioned, and curves up to meet the straps right in the upper middle of your back.
The TYR Carbon Thin Strap Women's Tri Tank is available in five sizes from X-Small to X-Large and in the colors Black/red, Black/light blue, Navy/red, and Red/black.

Huawei Ascend D Quad XL
Huawei Ascend D Quad XL Overview
The Huawei Ascend D Quad XL is the bigger brother to the Huawei Ascend D Quad. Both were unveiled at Mobile World Congress, 2012, and were boasted as the "fastest smartphone in the world," upon announcement.
Both devices include the same specs, with the only difference revolving around the battery. The Ascend D Quad XL happens to sport a 2,500 mAh battery, which is a great improvement over the 1,800 mAh battery that its smaller itteration holds. Of course, this comes with a bit of a downside, as the Ascend D Quad XL is also a bit thicker, measuring at 10.9 mm.

PKP Bugzilla – Bug 5553
centralize name storage/creation
Last modified: 2013-05-29 16:21:41 PDT
As per http://pkp.sfu.ca/support/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=6309&p=24234#p24234: centralize how names are stored and generated within the codebase to make it easier for others to control how they are displayed via eg. plugins.
This has mostly been done already, e.g. with the PKPUser::getFullName function; if areas in the code are identified that don't use this, please note them here and we'll correct them.
I also considered using PKPUser::getFullName() for name formatting when I implemented the citation editor.
The problems I had with that approach is:
- not all names can be dealt with in User objects especially when it comes to citation formatting or import/export
- the approach is not easily pluggable/extendable (unless we let getFullName() delegate to a filter, which makes a lot of sense to me)
- the approach is not easy to configure for different output
- this is not a solution for interoperability with external apps
- it's not easy to maintain standards-compatibility like NLM or the like
The user object is quite specific and too heavy for generic name representation. NLMNameSchema or some similar standards-based approach is more appropriate IMO.
We could delegate name output to filters and use FilterDAO::getCompatibleOjects() in places where we need name display. Of course the filter can be kept in cache so that we don't have to retrieve it from the DB more than once per request. It can be used in the PKPUser object but also in places where a PKPUser object is not available.
Name display can then be configured in the set-up in a community-extensible and standards conforming way.
Already completed by Jason -- see the PKPIdentity class.

Everyone needs support at some time and young people are no different.
Life can be hard at times, and it's not always easy to know what to do or where to turn. Sometimes people can get the help they might need from a friend, a family member or an adult they trust, such as a teacher or a youth worker. But sometimes that's not enough.
If you feel like you're struggling with your thoughts and feelings, you're not alone, and you don't have to go through it on your own. Response can help.
Run by Wirral Council, Response provide free, confidential Counselling to young people across Wirral aged 13 years up to 19 years.
What is counselling?
Counselling helps you look at the difficulties and problems that you may be having and is an opportunity to talk about your experiences without being judged. It can help you talk about stuff bothering you and make sense of your thoughts and feelings, and it can help you cope better with problems, both now and in the future. Counselling can help you understand what's going on for you and how you might like things to change.
Counselling is confidential, which means that you don't have to tell anyone that you're coming, and that Response won't tell anybody else what you talk about in sessions. The only exception to this is if you say that you or another young person is being harmed in some way, in which case the counsellor might have to tell somebody to help keep people safe, but they would always try to talk this over with you first.
What kind of problems do people talk about?
There are a whole range of difficulties which a young person might want to go and see a counsellor to talk about. Here are just a few:
How do I get in touch?
Response can be contacted on 0151 666 4123 or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com. You'll find them at the Callister Centre, 19 Argyle Street, Birkenhead, CH41 1AD.
The counselling service is available through drop in and appointment. Counselling drop in sessions run every Tuesday from 1pm to 6pm - just turn up then and you'll get to speak to one of the counsellors.
They also offer appointments throughout the week Monday to Friday, both during the day and some evenings. You can ring to make an appointment.
Everyone needs support at some time and young people are no different.
Here's what some of the young people who've visited Response Counselling Service have had to say.

The latest composite leading indicators (CLIs) from the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) suggest continued economic expansion ahead in the OECD area. (Click for OECD Definitions and Methodological Notes.)November 2006 data shows weakening performance in the CLI's 6-month rate of change in the Euro area and the U.S., but improved performance in Canada and Japan. The spreads between short- and long-term interest rates are contributing negatively to the performance of the CLIs in all the major seven economies, while business confidence is contributing positively in the Euro area and the U.S. and negatively in Canada. The latest data for major OECD non-member economies point to a weakening outlook for Brazil and Russia and strong growth in China and India.The CLI for the OECD area increased by 0.2 point in November to 109.5 from 109.3 in October, but its 6-month rate of change shows a downward trend since March 2006.

Annual General Meeting
24th Annual General Meeting
December 4th, 2013
Topic: What happened to our oysters?
Place: Canoe and Kayak Club at 355 Gorge Rd. East
Time: 7:00 pm to 8:00 pm
Speaker: Mary Vasey
Mary is the Education Coordinator for World Fisheries Trust. She will talk about what happened to the oysters that lived under the old Craigflower Bridge before construction of the new bridge began. Why and how were they moved? - where are they now? are some of the questions she will answer as she describes the process that was used. In addition she will update us on what is currently happening in the Nature House. What have over 9000 participants been learning and doing?
You are invited to join us for an hour of information, talk, tea and treats.
For a summary of last year's highly successful and informative AGM - keep reading......oh and guess what? Saturday Nov 2nd there were 449 coho and 2 rainbow trout in the Fish Counting Fence containment pond - they had been leaping about in the Inlet and the Gorge Waterway for about 3 weeks waiting for the rain to bring up the water level in the river before swimming up to complete their journey to their spawning grounds.
WildLife And The Gorge
Dorothy Chambers was our very passionate speaker last year. Thanks Dorothy for giving of your time, not only to count the fish, but to educate us about the drastic impact of the carelessness that can be so very damaging.
She talked to us about:
her involvement with the Fish Counting Fence on the Colquitz Creek in Cuthbert Holmes Park
the beaver that has constructed a dam upstream from the fence
the great horned owl that has lived nearby for more than a decade
but most heart-breakingly, about the oil spills that have plauged this area more and more frequently in the last few years.

Steve James has been busy with new guitar, a new band with a new live album, a movie soundtrack, a buncha gigs…and more to come. Read on!
After a January appearance on Austin City Limits Live, Steve was in California at the NAMM show with National Resophonic. His signatre guitar, the Reso-Rocket WB, is now on National's short list of most popular models. You can see and hear these guitars right here; also have a look at Steve's current inventory of new National instruments.
In February, Steve and his old friend Pipp Gillette debuted their bluesy new duo. THE CAMP STREETERS, featuring Steve on electric guitars and vocals and Pipp on drums and vocals, wasted no time recording a live set at their home base, Pipp's rustic Camp Street Cafe in Crockett, Texas (the one with the Lightning Hopkins statue across the street!), and their brand of Texas juke joint music is now available on a new CD….The Camp Streeters Live. Find out more here.
After Spring tour dates on both coasts and appearances with The Camp Streeters, Del Rey and blues mandolin maven Rich Del Grosso at the Kerrville Folk Festival, SJ was on hand in Dallas' Oak Cliff Film Festival for the initial screening of Carolyn Macartney's "Wanda The Wonderful", an evocative docu-drama about the vaudeville sharpshooting glamour girl (and Carolyn's grandmother!) Wanda Savage; a film for which Steve composed, arranged and performed most of the soundtrack music.

Is Royal Caribbean about to order a new ship? Executives at the company have been tight lipped on the topic with cruise writers this week during inaugural events for the line's latest vessel, Allure of the Seas, but apparently they've been more upfront with Wall Street analysts.
Tim Conder of Wells Fargo Securities says a key takeaway from an analyst meeting with executives on Allure this week is that the line is likely to order a new vessel early next year for delivery in 2014.
Writing in a research note sent to clients on Tuesday, Conder says the new Royal Caribbean ship is likely to be in the 4,000 to 4,200 berth range, which would make it considerably smaller than the 5,400-passenger Allure of the Seas and its one-year-old sister, Oasis of the Seas.
With the delivery of Allure of the Seas, Royal Caribbean currently doesn't have a single vessel on order, a relative rarity for the line. Like its main rival Carnival Corp., Royal Caribbean parent company Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. has slowed ordering the past few years after more than a decade of rapid growth, focusing instead on paying down debt and managing through the economic downturn.

"We continue to believe (Royal Caribbean) management ... will keep future capacity growth in the 3-5% annual range as the company looks to delever and significantly improve (return on invested capital)," writes Conder.
Royal Caribbean Cruises Chairman and CEO Richard Fain has said publicly this year the line doesn't plan to order more Oasis Class ships, despite their huge success in the marketplace. Fain and other executives have hinted the line's next class of ships would be a smaller one capable of sailing to a more diverse range of ports around the globe.
Royal Caribbean fans, what sort of ship would you like to see the line build next? Share your thoughts in the comment area below.

San Francisco Chronicle 94-Year-Old Science Editor Still Going Strong
The photo caption at the top of the Web version of today's LA Times "Column One" article says it all: 'David Perlman sits at his desk at the San Francisco Chronicle, where he has been a reporter for 63 years.'
Sixty-three years! That means than when the now 94-year-old science editor first started at the paper, Albert Einstein was still alive. Perlman has definitely managed to keep a sense of humor about it all; here for example is what he told some Exploratorium museum staff as LAT's San Francisco bureau chief Maria L. La Ganga followed him around:
She's "doing a story about the oldest living reporter — me," Perlman told the amused museum staff. "She has to be done before I die…"

China Telecom launches OTT messaging app
The operator push to reclaim status in messaging services has received impetus in China where China Telecom has launched its own proprietary instant messaging application dubbed YiChat.
Consulting and outsourcing firm Capgemini has unveiled plans to bring a white label Joyn server to market. The rich messaging server was developed in collaboration with Orange and will enable mobile operators to brand and embed their own, out of the box version of the rich messaging service onto handsets, providing consumers with an alternative to over the top (OTT) applications.
Operator groups Deutsche Telekom and Orange have signed up to an RCS hub from cloud communications firm Jibe Mobile, enabling interoperability between RCS and Joyn services hosted by third parties as well as in-network deployments.
The operator push to reclaim status in messaging services has received impetus in China where China Telecom has launched its own proprietary instant messaging application dubbed YiChat.
Three out of ten mobile operators believe GSMA offering Joyn is not the solution to successfully compete with messaging service providers such as WhatsApp and Skype, according to research published today.
Telefónica Digital, the innovation arm of the Spanish incumbent telco, has called time on its rich communication prototype, Tu Me, in favour of a version that is not bound to smartphones.
French mobile operator Orange on Wednesday became the first in the country to launch Joyn rich communications services. The announcement marks France as the ninth country to introduce Joyn, while 14 operators in total have pledged their support to the GSMA-backed initiative.
Javier Arenzana Arias, director Rich Communication Services, Telefonica, Spain is speaking at the LTE Operator Mind Share, part of the LTE World Summit, taking place on the 24th June at the Amsterdam RAI, Netherlands. Ahead of the show we get an insight into how Telefonica is confident that RCS services will enable the industry to confidently compete with OTT services.
Since the launch of Skype in 2003, over-the-top (OTT) service providers have been successful in convincing subscribers to opt for their perceived to be free offerings, at the expense of operators' voice and SMS services.
Despite the operator support behind Rich Communications Services (RCS), it will only be the very biggest international players that deploy the technology in their own networks. The rest will look to cloud-based offerings to fulfil their needs, according to business systems firms SAP Mobile Services.
Operator group Deutsche Telekom has become the latest firm to offer the GSMA's Joyn messaging platform to its users. The operator has rolled out the service to customers in its native Germany.
Almost twelve months after Vodafone Spain became the first mobile operator to officially launch Joyn, South Korea's SK Telecom has announced a fairly impressive one million users for its Joyn.T service, just 50 days after it was launched in December 2012.
South Korean operator SK Telecom has announced that it has acquired one million users for its Joyn service, just 50 days after of launching it.
It's that time of year again. The time that industry professionals know only too well, as we see our schedules for the final week in February rapidly running out of space – we're all preparing ourselves for the exhausting experience that is Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. Well, unless you work at Microsoft or RIM, it seems.
The GSMA-backed rich communication service initiative Joyn has split opinion among the industry's forecasters. Some are encouraged by the strides the service has made, whereas others believe this is too little a step taken too late. Nonetheless, Joyn now seems to be gaining momentum; in recent weeks, Spain's big three operators have thrown their weight behind the cause as well as SK Telecom in South Korea.
South Korean operator SK Telecom has become the latest carrier to throw its weight behind the GSMA's Joyn initiative after announcing the availability of its joyn.T rich communications service to subscribers. The Joyn proposition, announced by GSMA at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona last year, is the group's response to the increasing popularity of network independent, OTT messaging applications.
A Silicon Valley startup on Wednesday received funding from Vodafone to help make the carrier's answer to OTT (over the top) services a viable alternative to the likes of Skype and WhatsApp.
Three Spanish operators have teamed up in an effort to combat the threat of OTT communication providers such as WhatsApp and Skype by launching the Joyn service to their subscribers. With this move, Movistar, Orange and Vodafone have helped make Spain the first country to offer the fully interoperable operator-led communications solution to subscribers.
US carrier MetroPCS has taken a lead in the US by becoming the first network to offer Rich Communications Services (RCS) on its LTE network. RCS is designed to offer enhanced features such as chat, messaging and content sharing directly via the network, rather than through third party offerings.
Spanish carrier Telefónica gave a first look at Joyn on Wednesday, making an Android application available in its domestic market.
There is an interesting parallel between today's announcement that Telefónica is launching an app-based rich communications play—TU Me—and the unveiling two weeks ago of its O2UK arm's mobile wallet offering. In both situations, Telefónica is simultaneously leading collaborative efforts along similar lines with the very operators on which it is attempting to steal a march by being quick to market.

Synopsis: So prophesied Abraham Lincoln, in a speech given on June 16th, 1858—two years before his election to the Presidency would trigger the collapse of national unity. The cause—a fundamental paradox in the country's architectural plan. Built as an experiment in freedom, America remained committed to the institution of slavery, and its foundations were cracking under the strain. THE AMERICAN CIVIL WAR creates a vivid portrait of America's greatest internal crisis, from the first antislavery protests to Lee's surrender at Appomattox. Along the way, this series examines the moral, political, and strategic forces that set brother against brother for more than four years, in what is generally understood to be the first modern war. Created by some of the most respected producers and historians of the genre this 10-DVD set entertains, educates and conveys a message that should remain with us all. With the help of several thousand living history re-enactors, THE AMERICAN CIVIL WAR goes beyond the fog of war and allows you to experience the glory and heartache of the battles that changed war forever.

A monumental work of the twentieth century, Being and Nothingness is the fullest expression of Jean-Paul Sartre's philosophy of existentialism. First published in 1943, this masterpiece still defines and expresses the modern condition, and holds great relevance for contemporary readers. Existentialism rejects the Cartesian duality of mind and matter, as well as supernatural authority, and claims instead that "being" comes before "knowing," and that each individual creates his own nature. Each person must overcome angst and choose to act in a passionate and authentic manner. Morality and truth can only be discovered in conscious individual choice and action. Included is a key to a special terminology, both the technical terms coined by Sartre and familiar words to which he assigned special meanings.
Jean-Paul Sartre was born in Paris in 1905 and died in 1980. A philosopher, author, and social critic, he was a key figure among the French intellectuals who resisted the Nazi occupation during World War II. His many plays and novels also express existential themes.

The independence of young American adults just took a great leap backwards. It was precipitated by the advance of their parents into new territory, a province once deemed innocuous enough for their offspring to navigate by themselves—getting into graduate school.
Now parents of 25-year-olds are only too eager to call graduate admissions officers and sing the virtues of their "children" or show up uninvited for campus visits intended for prospective students. Think of it as college displacement.
Earlier this week, the Chronicle of Higher Education reported that "Parents Now Get Themselves Involved in Graduate Admissions, Too." The relentless violation of parental boundaries is most intense at business and law schools, professional domains where, back in the good ol' days of, say, 1990, demonstrations of self-motivation and self-reliance by prospective students could be considered a plus.

um... i dont think they press the disc in a case.Sponsored Links
so they are fake
I'm confused... They look like UMDs...Sponsored Links
I have a feeling that some prankster opened up some of those UMD cases and flipped the UMDs around, making it appear that all those UMDs are shiny on "both sides".
Although it would be nice, I seriously doubt that they are real.
But what use would they be without a burner to burn them?
I don't know, I mean the plastic covers are totaly different from the original
but the problem is not the umd, is the burner where you will take one?
there are no UMD burners in existance. the discs are pressed like a CD or DVD, and then inserted into the UMD case.

Current Time
Whitefish , Montana
Tel: 888 530 1700
Concierge.com's insider take:
Whitefish, in the state's northwest corner, has a split personality. The softer side is the town's fine lodging and good food. And then there's the roughin' it angle: the beautifully severe backcountry of Glacier National Park. Devote a couple days and hit both ends of the spectrum. Start at the Garden Wall Inn, two blocks off Central Avenue on a quiet street. The two-story B&B was built by a Great Northern railroad executive as a family home and it's still white-picket-fence cute, clad in white shingles and fronted by an inviting porch. The inside has 1920s Art Deco antiques, maple floors, and flowers from the garden. Breakfast is cooked and served by one of the co-owners (who are also trained chefs): Whatever time you rise, you'll get dishes such as an egg-and-leek soufflé stuffed with smoked Montana trout. After a few days in town, it's time to head to the backcountry. Sperry Chalet is within park boundaries and only reachable by a 6.5-mile trail that ascends some 3,000 feet. This is the perfect launching point for forays into this iconic American wilderness. While its caretakers give excellent advice on trails, we recommend coming well-prepared—this is rough country. The chalet, on the west side of Gunsight Mountain, was built in 1913 of native stone and rough timber and overlooks ten-mile-long McDonald Lake. The 17 spare rooms have no heat, electricity, or running water—and the bathroom building is shared by all—but you'll get clean sheets and three simple and hearty meals a day (Sperry Chalet, Glacier National Park; 888-345-2649, email@example.com; www.sperrychalet.com/menu.html).

Pay for on-street parking downtown with your phone
Seattle launched a new parking pay-by-phone initiative Thursday that allows drivers to use their phones to pay for on-street parking.
Seattle Times staff reporter
For an extra 35 cents, downtown Seattle parkers can rid themselves of searching for loose change and scraping sticky residue off their windows.
The city launched a new initiative Thursday that allows drivers to use their phones to pay for on-street parking.
PayByPhone can be used within the boundaries of Seneca Street, Olive Way, First Avenue and Ninth Avenue. The option, through a city vendor partner, will be expanded to other areas of the city by the end of the year.
Through PayByPhone, drivers don't need to use a pay station or display a printed sticker. Parkers download the PayByPhone application and create an account, then enter their license-plate number and credit-card information.
When they want to park, they enter a five-digit location code printed on a sign next to each pay station, and the fee is automatically deducted from their account.
PayByPhone users can also receive a text message reminding them when their parking time is about to expire. If their meter hasn't expired, they can add time remotely.
To encourage parking turnover, the system will have a waiting period so users can't pay with the same location code right after their time expires.
Barrie Arnold, chief commercial officer of PayByPhone, called the smartphone "the meter of the future." He said the pay-by-phone option allows people to feel more at ease about parking on the street.
"People can stay longer for coffee or dessert, or spend more time shopping because they know they'll get a message," Arnold said at a news conference Thursday.
Seattle police parking-enforcement officers will be able to see the payment status and license-plate numbers in real time on their enforcement equipment, so a printed receipt isn't necessary.
The parking rules are the same as pay stations, with two exceptions. PayByPhone is not portable to other areas, so time in one area can't be transferred to another block. And PayByPhone does not offer overnight prepayment between 10 p.m. and 4 a.m.
Mayor Mike McGinn, who spoke at the news conference, said the technology was introduced to encourage more people to come downtown.
Downtown Seattle Association CEO Kate Joncas said surveys showed parking was one of the primary barriers preventing would-be downtown visitors.
"[PayByPhone] addresses that concern," Joncas said.
Kristine Cela, who works at a Rex's, a deli on Second Avenue, said parking is a daily struggle for visitors and commuters.
"The pay machines are a huge pain, because you have to have certain coins and you can't use dollars," said Cela, who usually walks downtown from Lower Queen Anne. "It's frustrating."
A phone option, she said, is "way more convenient."
PayByPhone offers services in 180 North American and European cities, including Miami, Kansas City and London. The Vancouver, B.C.-based company's revenue comes from the 35-cent convenience fee for each transaction, not from the city.
The Seattle Department of Transportation started working with PayByPhone in 2012 after a competitive vendor process, according to Mary Catherine Snyder, the department's parking strategist. SDOT used $220,000 for enforcement and pay station software integration and program outreach.
Drivers can download the PayByPhone application from a smartphone app store.
If you don't have a smartphone, you can use the pay-by-phone option by calling 1-888-515-7275, or at www.paybyphone.com.

Critical security warning issued for Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard
Computerworld reports that security researchers from CoreLabs have publicly released details on a critical security flaw in Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, an older version of the Mac's operating system. Curiously, the security flaw in Leopard is quite similar to a flaw we reported on back in August, which allowed easy-as-pie browser-based jailbreaking of iOS devices.
CoreLabs became aware of the flaw in Leopard and informed Apple only a couple weeks after Apple patched a similar hole in iOS 4; according to those same researchers, Apple has had more than enough time since then to patch the flaw in Leopard. That the flaw remains unpatched was the researchers' motivation for sounding the alarm publicly.
The current version of Mac OS X, 10.6 Snow Leopard, is not vulnerable to this exploit. Those using Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard will remain vulnerable until Apple offers a security update for the older OS, which theoretically should be coming soon (reportedly, Apple has developed a patch and is simply waiting to release it). As it stands now, Mac OS X Leopard's vulnerability could potentially leave the OS vulnerable to malware or remote attacks. More specific information is available on CoreLabs' website.

I love when I don't have to go through five different call prompts, then wait on hold for 10 minutes, to speak to a representative. Even better is online chat support so that I can get help right away without picking up the phone. I'm also a fan of online ordering, text message alerts, especially when my flight is delayed, and e-mail appointment reminders.
Great Customer Service + Convenience = Happy Customers.
Every business should strive to make and keep their customers happy. Now, this is definitely not easy. But brands that invest in their customer service in today's digital age reap the rewards. Take a look at Zappos.com and Comcast – these are just two examples of Customer-Centered organizations.
A recent article I read on the Harvard Business Review Blog Network put it perfectly...
"The growing obsession with customer excellence is driven, in part, by technology. Today customers can obtain and exchange more information about the good and bad of their encounters with companies than ever before. That gives companies a great incentive to work harder to make customers happy — before, during and after their purchases."
Not good, but great customer service is critical. Customers value their time and businesses need to recognize and respect that. Don't hide your customer service reps behind an annoying, automatic call service. Put them out there. Make them available. Teach and reward them to care. And your customers will be thankful and will probably be back for more of what you've got to offer.

My BF eats low fat/high carb, so his pantry would have some of that stuff, but not all. As such, his pantry items don't bother me. Now, if he had chips, that would be another matter. He mostly has cereals and oatmeal, stuff like that. Maybe one box of cookies (he has a major sweet tooth), but he is very good at moderating himself -- like one cookie with his morning tea. I don't care for sweets, so that doesn't bother me either. When I'm over there, I mainly have eggs or slices of cheese. It works.

I'm too cheap to buy ready made cereals and crackers, etc. I do have the old fashioned oats, cans of cook beans, dry peas and beans, dried mushrooms and other boring stuff, like sweeteners, boxes of soy, almond and coconut milk. But the fridge and freezer are stuffed.

My pantry is basically empty right now because I shifted to a whole-foods-only diet. I'm not at 100% whole-foods but I'm pretty close so that means nothing processed, which means pretty much no foods that come in a box, a bag or a can. My fridge is overflowing though!!
Having said that, I do have lots of different types of sugar, flour and other baking essentials in my pantry because I bake all manner of desserts to sell as a side job But I don't have a problem with them being in there because they're not "grab and go," I'd have to actually put in the time and effort to make something with them so I can't just start stuffing my face without thinking about it.
My roommate doesn't cook at all so the only stuff that is in our pantry is the stuff I put in there, which is definitely helpful to me!
On a side note (and I will preface this with saying it's just my personal opinion) I don't think that all the processed stuff is healthy for anybody regardless of their weight. Just because someone is skinny doesn't mean they are healthy. I've read too much scientific material documenting how the artificial colors & flavors, preservatives, and fake sweeteners affect our bodies. They affect the whole operating system and a person's weight isn't the only thing that becomes a problem. I agree with nolcjunk's suggestion about making an effort to change your family's habits here and there. You don't have to try to change their whole diet, just tweak what is in your control.

I have only attempted to lose weight once in my life. I wasn't ready, and then I was. I committed with all my will and haven't looked back. I've maintained when I'm exhausted or pregnant, I've tweaked as my losses slow or something isn't working anymore, but I've never quit my plan. I discovered early on that temptation is in my head, not my physical surroundings. When I mastered my own will and admitted that this was all a choice (and one I'd committed my life to persisting with) it got so much easier.
I choose this. For me there is nothing else. I can fight it, or make it as automatic as breathing. I chose the latter.

Garlic, I wanted to add something, just in case my last post doesn't come across in the tone I'm intending. Please don't believe a permanent change is easy, or always goes perfectly, or there aren't temptations. I'm staring at bananas, with skittles and a Hershey's bars in the cabinet above my head, icecream in the freezer behind me, and four JARS of grains and flour right behind my ipad. Temptation is everywhere when the rest of the family doesn't choose to eat the way you do. And my family is quite healthy and metabolically normal, so me making them spelt porridge or allowing s'mores on our yearly camping trip, or ice cream and skittles at a birthday party, or half a banana with cottage cheese during breakfast - these things don't harm my children's bodies in the same way they do mine. So my kids, in particular, eat a whole foods diet with the occasional pizza slice, hot dog, or special occasion dessert and I don't sweat it.
But me - I'm not them. I LOVE s'mores, that was probably the hardest food for me to watch them consume in ages, the smell and texture brought back very strong and fond food memories. But I made a choice and I know I cannot eat those on my plan and lose the last bit of this weight - and after FIVE YEARS of having this phase stretched out, I'm so ready to be done. Ready to make the hard choice and enjoy the memory and smell of a dessert, but no taste.
These bananas - SO ripe and lovely. It would certainly be pleasant to slice them up and enjoy banana nut oatmeal like I make for the children (it's like banana bread in a bowl, but with stevia and heavy cream). But if I eat that, I'll stall. I'll have cravings. I'll probably break out, end up with achy joints, and crazy water retention to boot.
All these grains - no good for me. They can handle them, but they're not me. My body was morbidly obese as a teenager and young adult - I can't just eat a bite of some foods and stop. I can't eat them and have energy. I can't eat them without hypoglycemia and immune system freak outs.
And thus - the choice. Why would I choose these things knowing how much they hurt me? Why forfeit my health, energy, and the ability to BE there for my family for the fleeting pleasure of food? And what's more, why spend even a MOMENT of mental energy struggling with my will over these items, when I can CHOOSE to relegate them to the 'nope, don't want it!' file in my head and move forward free, healthy, and unconflicted? I have a choice, I'm in complete control of myself - not some skittles or icecream! Me! I have agency! And how much easier is my journey when I'm just working at daily compliance and good habits, instead of fighting an epic battle against my own will? I have enough problems without making myself my own worst enemy
Does that make more sense? I *choose* this ease and freedom. It's really that simple. Not easy, but straightforward enough. And with God's mercy and taking this moment by moment and choice by choice, I have victory over this real and lifelong body struggle. I truly believe you can as well. But don't give the minute rice and crackers power that belongs to you. Choose freedom, not bondage to boxed starch. Once you have made peace with that, 80% of the work needed for lifetime maintenance is done. The rest is just practicing those habits and working your will to completion in this arena.

Additional Information
Tech viewpoint on funding start-ups
Two years ago, my agency, London Advertising, was offered a loan facility of £4 million to buy a social media shop to grow our in-house "digital" capability. Being adverse to debt, my business partner and I thought we should do something a tad more creative.
Instead, we decided to launch a competition with a £100,000 prize to fund a new digital agency in partnership with us. We tapped into the Government's Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme, which was widely unknown due to the furore over the "pasty tax".
We then persuaded The Times to be our media partner, the Prime Minister to launch it at Downing Street and 12 brands including Aston Martin, Samsung and Warner Bros to sponsor it. For the final pitch, we persuaded Getty Images to give us a live brief to promote its video library to the creative community, who know it for stills but few associate it with video.
Two grads, James Kirk and Kenneth Moore, presented an idea for an app they called Twideo that would automatically turn text into a video message.
Even though we had intended to fund an agency, we decided on the spot to invest the £100,000 in the app, giving James and Ken jobs and shares and making us accidental tech entrepreneurs.
We incubated the start-up in our offices and secured a significant seven-figure investment, which enabled it to recruit a team of 16 to build the app.
We had intended to fund an agency, but decided on the spot to invest the £100,000 in the app
Eighteen months after the original idea was presented, we launched Wordeo (as it became) on 14 January.
If timing is everything, then we were fortunate that all the trend forecasts predicted that the hot sectors for 2014 would be social, video and messaging. Wordeo is all three.
In its first week, Wordeo was awarded both Number 1 Best New App and Editor's Choice on the App Store, with the likes of Stephen Fry using it avidly.
We have had more downloads in the first month than Snapchat had after six – however, the truth is that this is more a testimony of the time and hard work for any app to iterate its product to secure market fit and to build a strong user base. Fortunately, we have a talented management team to do just that.
The opportunities to involve agencies and brands in what has been described as the ultimate native advertising and user-generated content platform are hugely exciting. So what are the lessons for an adman wanting to move into tech – accidentally or by design?
- Follow your instincts. Be brave.
- Take risks.
- Have good friends and even better lawyers.
- Read the tax code and The Lean Startup.
- Wordeo might be an accident but, as Buddhism teaches us:
"Things happen for a reason." So if you don't do anything, then nothing will happen.

Rekindling An Old Flame?
By Lori Bizzoco
Thanks to social networking sites like Facebook, reuniting with a long lost love is becoming more and more common. As a woman who re-dated a man I married after several years apart, I confess to being part of this growing trend. However, most "rekindlers" as experts call them, are folks who get together after decades apart.
Re-dating an old flame can initially feel more comfortable than getting to know someone new but depending on how long you dated, how well you knew one another and the intensity of the past romance there could be a highly charged emotional outcome. Unlike a new relationship, old issues could begin to surface. If the break-up was caused by deception or cheating, it's often hard to move on. If the separation was due to a change in distance, parental disapproval or during childhood, the chances of a successful reunion are better. If you recently rekindled with an old love and want it to last, follow these tips so that you both have a chance at making it work out the second time around.
Out with the old
After the initial excitement of reconnecting wears off, don't begin overanalyzing the past mistakes or reasons for the break-up. If he cheated on you when you were 17, it doesn't mean that he'll do it again at 37. If her father didn't like you when you were in college, maybe he won't feel that way today. It could have been the fact that he wanted his daughter to finish school and explore the world before she got married. No matter what the past situation, start fresh, and approach the reunion with the same outlook as you would a new relationship. You owe each other that much if you've decided to give it another go.
Danger of "I know you"
Ken and Eve met during their first year of college and dated for three years. When they re-met in their late forties, they discussed old memories as if they still knew one another in the same way. "Ken loves having his friends over to watch the Miami Dolphin games but he's unmotivated about cleaning up the after party mess." Ken remembered that Eve was dedicated to her three-mile walks everyday and her fitness routine took precedent over their time together. These patterns took place long ago but each of the ex's was still convinced they knew the other person's likes and dislikes. Although some of what they remember about one another could still be true 25 years later, people change a lot over the course of their life. Throw away your preconceived thoughts about who the other person is and enjoy taking the time to get to know them again.

You're receiving this CLE and Events Notice as a member of the Food and Drug Law Section.
Having trouble viewing this email? View it in your browser.
The past two years have been a time of great upheaval for the False Claims Act and the lawyers and courts who must apply it. The economic downturn has ignited a chorus of calls for politicians to be tough on companies who engage in fraud. These cries have resulted in two major amendments to the statute, giving it a broader reach and impact than at any other point in history. At the same time, the Supreme Court has issued a series of important decisions attempting to cabin the FCA within the bounds of reason. From the Supreme Court's Allison Engine decision in June 2008, to the enactment of the Fraud Enforcement & Recovery Act in 2009, the Patient Protection & Affordable Care Act of 2010 and the Supreme Court's March 2010 decision in Graham County, Congress and the courts have been waging a pitched battle against each other to define the boundaries of civil health care fraud. The presenters will review these tumultuous developments and discuss how they have applied to recent cases involving alleged off-label violations of the FCA. They will also discuss the local criminal case United States v. Guidant LLC.
