Fox Body Engine Pulley & Accessory Options
A fully loaded 5.0L Foxbody Mustang came with a truck load of parasitic accessories. A power steering pump, 95 amp alternator, counter-clockwise rotation water pump, A/C compressor and a smog pump all hang off the front of the motor and are driven via a serpentine belt powered by the crankshaft pulley. Now, it is widely known (this may be an understatement
) that the engine provides power to the wheels of the car, but it also provides power to these accessories. The fact of the matter is, these accessories suck up some of the available engine power, resulting in less getting to the wheels.
If youre considering a budget-friendly way to regain some of this power, you have 2 options:
1) slow the accessories down so that they do not draw as much power and
2) remove any unnecessary accessories altogether.
Slowing Down Your Mustang's Engine Accessories
As already mentioned, slowing the engine accessories will recover a few horses. Logically speaking, the faster an accessory is spun, the more power it requires to be driven. Thus, slowing down the rotation of an accessory is a simple solution to recover some horses. How do we go about slowing them down, you ask? With underdrive pulleys!
Underdrive pulleys are basically a replacement set of different sized pulleys to replace the stock water pump pulley, alternator pulley and crankshaft pulley. The idea behind underdrive pulleys is to change the revolution ratio between the accessory (driven pulley) and the crankshaft pulley (driver pulley). It works exactly like a gear ratio. If you have a 2 driver pulley connected via a belt to a 2 driven pulley, they will rotate the same number of revolutions per minute. (a 1:1 ratio). Now, if you swapped the driven pulley with a larger 4 pulley, the smaller driver pulley will have to rotate twice to complete one revolution of the larger driven pulley. Another way to look at it is that for everyone one revolution of the driver pulley, the driven pulley completes a half revolution. Thus the driven pulley is turning at half the rate. Keep in mind, that for this application, the driver pulley is actually the crankshaft pulley, which is turning at the same RPM as what is indicated on the tachometer. Thereby the crankshaft pulley is spinning like always, but the accessory pulley is now being rotated at half the rate of the crankshaft pulley at any given RPM, thus reducing power consumption.
A 3-piece underdrive kit from Ford Racing, BBK or MAC Performance all feature different-than-stock pulley sizes that are optimized for the best ratio between the crankshaft pulley and accessory pulley. The change in pulley size allows for the accessories to turn at a lesser rate and thus drawing less power to operate. See below for pictures of stock pulley sizes.
Underdrive pulleys are a very easy way to pick up some horses (5-10, at a minimum), but they can also pose a couple of problems. Because they slow down the operation of the water pump and alternator, particularly at idle, overheating (rather, above average heating due to a diminished coolant flow rate at idle) and low voltage can occur if your Foxbody already shows signs of these problems before installing underdrive pulleys. If youre concerned about this happening to you, make sure the cooling and charging systems are in tip-top shape. If either system is less than optimal in stock form, it is likely one of the above issues will show face at idle with underdrive pulleys installed. In a way, underdrive pulleys can weed out existing problems in the electrical and cooling systems.
Fox Body Engine Accessories That Rob You of Power
As far as option #2 goes, A/C (if equipped) and the smog pump are both expendable accessories that will not really have a noticeable impact on driveability and will free up a little power, not to mention some space in the engine bay. There is the option of removing the power steering pump and switching over to a manual rack, but in all honesty this isnt too practical and best suited for a track only car.
If you decide to regain some of that lost power and dont mind living sans A/C, Ford Racing offers an A/C removal kit that allows you to remove the air conditioning compressor and relocate the power steering pump in its place for easier access. Regarding the smog pump, Ford Racing and SR Performance both offer a smog pump eliminator kit. Whether you pick the billet aluminum SR Performance offering or the Ford Racing cast aluminum piece, they both eliminate the power robbing smog pump and replace it with an additional idler pulley to retain the stock serpentine belt length and path.
Mustang Underdrive Pulley Perfromance Gains
One note of caution: when changing pulley sizes or removing an accessory all together, the drive belt length and path can change. Some kits come with the correct belt length for the new setup, whereas others may require that you measure and purchase one yourself.
All in all, an underdrive pulley system is good to pick up some hidden horsepower and reduce the parasitic draw the stock pullies have on your Fox Body's engine performance. And, if you choose to drop any of the expendable pumps as well (A/C or smog), another 5-7HP can be expected. The numbers really dont seem that high, but when put into a cost per horsepower perspective, it rounds out to approximately $10/HP, which any other modification will be hard pressed to beat.

What Shall We Call the Present Economic Crisis: A Contest
by Walter Block by Walter Block Recently by Walter Block: How I Offended the Diversitarians
Nomenclature first. Unless and until we know how to refer to the economic debacle of 2009, we cannot make much progress in solving it. We all know what to call the previous episode: The Great Depression. But, what about this present one?
If we do not get on record with a name, our friends on the left will steal a march on us. They will call it by some or all of these appellations:
The Great Struggle. The Capitalist Collapse. The Greed Depression. The Capitalist Depression. The Libertarian Depression. The Laissez Faire Depression.
So, we have to head them off. I would like to have a consensus on this matter, though. Therefore, we are going to have a bit of a contest. Readers of LewRockwell.com are asked to send in their votes. Everyone can get up to three votes: 3 points for your first choice, 2 points for your second choice, and 1 point for your third choice. Since I am expecting 100s of responses, please put your vote in the following format, for ease of compilation:
1. (3 points) Depression to End all Depressions.
2. (2 points) Fiat Money Depression.
3. (1 point) Great Depression II.
(These are just for example, to illustrate the format; do not be biased by these choices.)

U.S., Turkey Launch New Trade, Investment Forum
December 24, 2009 by TMO
Turkey's EU Affairs Minister Egemen Bagis (L) talks to Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu during a news conference at the European Union Council headquarters in Brussels December 21, 2009.
REUTERS/Francois Lenoir
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The United States and NATO ally Turkey launched an initiative Monday aimed at boosting trade and investment ties, but said there were no plans for the two countries to negotiate a free trade agreement.
"We can … build on what is a good trade and commercial relationship and make it a much more robust one," U.S. Trade Representative Ron Kirk said at a press conference with Turkish Deputy Prime Minister Ali Babacan.
The initiative creates a new Cabinet-level forum to discuss ways to expand bilateral trade and investment flows and to try to resolve disputes when they arise, similar to one the United States has with China.
"This framework … will be an important vehicle for expanding trade and investment and creating new jobs for the workers and the people" of both countries, said U.S. Commerce Secretary Gary Locke.
The announcement followed a White House meeting between President Barack Obama and Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan to discuss Iran's nuclear program and U.S. plans to send more troops to Afghanistan.
Obama told reporters he believed Turkey, a predominantly Muslim country and long-time U.S. ally, could be an 'important player' in moving Iran toward resolving its dispute with the West over its nuclear program.
Erdogan said Turkey stands ready to do whatever it can to achieve a diplomatic solution on the nuclear issue.
Turkey, which has applied for membership of the European Union, is the United States' fourth-largest trading partner in the Muslim world and 27th overall.
U.S-Turkey trade has dropped from a record of nearly $15 billion in 2008, but there is every reason to expect the two countries can surpass that "when the world economy gets back on its feet,'' Locke said.
Babacan said the two countries would seek suggestions from business on how to increase trade in areas ranging from energy to agriculture to military equipment.
He downplayed the chances of Ankara using the forum to press Washington to reduce high U.S. tariffs that Turkey faces on textiles and some other exports.
Kirk said the initiative was not intended as a stepping stone to talks with Turkey on a free trade agreement. (Reporting by Doug Palmer; Editing by Chris Wilson)

Herb-Rubbed Duck with Tart Cherry and Sage Sauce Reviews
Epicurious | March 2000
reviews & comments (32)
This recipe is fabulous! I halved the recipe for 2 people and didn't use all of the stock for the sauce. I only used 2 cups of the stock and 1 cup of wine. I stored the rest of the stock in the freezer for future use. For some reason I had a hard time finding dried cherries ( which is highly unusual ) so I used cranberries and added some sugar to balance the tartness. I will use and share this recipe!!!!
Very nice flavors. The juniper was a surprise. Because I made this for guests and did not want to do that much cooking while they were here, I simply put the breasts (sans skin) and legs in the oven for 40 min., but removed the breasts after 15 min. Worked perfectly. Per Julia child, I used the skin to make duck cracklings, which I served on my salad.
If I'm well enough to make it, or rich enough to hire a cook, this is what I'll have for my last meal on earth. Beyond fabulous. I made it for Easter; used juniper berries from my neighbor's front yard and kumquat skins instead of orange rind. Added some kumquat slices (for serving) because they are pretty. It's the best. Served it with Russian fingerling potatoes roasted (at the same 425 as the legs) in a little duck fat with salt and parsley added at serving.
I made this recipe for our extended family last year over the Christmas break. It is by far the best duck I have ever had and I have eaten at some of the best restaurants in the US. I stuck to the recipe and made stock as well, which I think was key. Strongly recommend trying it but expect to spend a good part of the day in the kitchen.
I made this for christmas dinner. I used 3 ducks and followed the recipe at 1 1/2 times the amounts. I did not bone the breasts, instead splitting the ducks in half, cutting out the back bones and made stock with the necks, back bones, wing tips, hearts and gizzards (I reserved the duck livers to make pate). Instead of cooking the breast and leg separately, I just heavily scored the skin and roasted the duck in halves on a sheet pan. Other than the cooking methods, I did follow the recipe and the result was fantastic. This was the highlight of our dinner. I highly recommend this and I will make it again in the future!
I made this last night for Christmas Eve dinner. Having never butchered a duck, I was a tad intimidated by the start, but it was surprisingly easy and worth every minute of the work considering the outcome of the stock/cherry sauce was pure delicious! This recipe is worth the effort for a celebratory dinner. Also, we had plenty of leftovers. If you are serving sides and a starter, this dish can easily serve 10 people (if not more).
Made this several years ago and lost the recipe; I'm so glad I've refound it. Used dried cherries from Traverse City, the Cherry Capital, and I'll be doing it again soon. I think it'll work with wild fowl too.
I've always thought that cooking duck would be intimidating. The only thing difficult for me with this recipe was cutting the duck up into legs/thighs and breasts. If your butcher would do it for you, you'll save lots of time. another time saver is to make the duck broth a day or two before. I thought that the sauce was marvelous. I easily found dried tart cherries in the dried fruit section of my Safeway, along with raisins, apricots, etc. If I had time (and could easily find duck) I would make this at least once a month, maybe more. Lastly, what attracted me to this recipe is that it wasn't just about the duck breasts, but about the leg too (my favorite part!)
Used this recipe for my first time making duck. I feel the cooking method is the real star of this recipe. Both breast and legs came out perfect! The sauce did not thicken for me, even after 2 hours! of trying to reduce it. Perhaps one shouldn't use ALL the stock to make it. I will try a different sauce recipe next time.
Reading this recipe through the first time, it seemed very intimidating. Later I realized the amount of detail made it easier to follow and more accessible to the home cook. Read it over and over, and closely follow the directions, and your pay off is a beautiful and and full-flavored duck. The fresh herbs really make a difference. However, I admit that the first time I made it, the person who had picked up the ducks for me had them butchered-but Chinese style! This didn't make for as pretty a presentation, but the flavors were still there and everyone at dinner thought it was delicious and they asked me to make it again for the next holiday.

Apparently Scott was on 5 teams last year starting with the Steelers in camp, and on the Bills twice: http://www.kffl.com/...nfl/chris-scott
Clicking around on the 2nd link and, it appears this guy was active for the Steelers for 2 games in 2011.
5th round draft pick of the Steelers in 2010. Was Tennessee's LT. http://www.steelers....c6-fd5eea10fc6f
(Last April)
The forgotten draft pick. This gives a lot of detail:
Looks like the guy got injured his rookie year, and lost a lot of ground as a result, including getting cut. He's supposed to be a T, but, it looks like they are making him a G.
So, given all this? How do you like this solution?

Oprah: OWN Reality Series Steers Clear of 'Bitches' and 'Ho's' Catfights
OWN's upcoming reality program Crazy.Sexy.Life. is about four African-American girlfriends who live in Harlem (Kiyah, Bershan, Chenoa, Tiffany). After a sneak preview September 3, the show is set to debut in early 2014.
In an interview with Josef Adalian conducted last month and appearing in the September 23 issue of New York magazine, Oprah Winfrey notes that OWN's version of reality TV promises to be a little different from the Real Housewives and Jersey Shore norm:
"They're all professional women, and they actually like each other. So they're not calling each other bitches and ho's all the time. They're not standing on tables and throwing water in people's faces. And [yet], it's fun. It's fun, it's humorous, but it also has heart and some depth and meaning…"

At the crossroads of rape culture, classicism, racism, and gender inequality lies the abuse of women and sexual minorities in our state penitentiaries.
In Massachusetts alone, the rising number of incarcerated individuals parallels the staggering number of sexual assault cases against inmates. To address this pressing civil rights issue, more than 75 advocates from the LGBT community and beyond gathered at the Parkman Bandstand on Boston Common last Saturday for what they dubbed a Break Out! March Against Mass Incarceration, primarily devoted to increasing awareness about the silent rape epidemic happening behind the wall.
"More often than not, feminism has worked hand-in-hand against the policing and incarceration of people," said Nicole Sullivan, a member of Boston Feminists for Liberation (BFL), who organized the demonstration. Sullivan went on to explain the perils of mass incarceration ignored by the public, as well as feminism's history within the confines of carceral institutions. "Even with this advocacy, less than 1 percent of rapists go to jail. All this does is actually give police free reign to surveil a community, which usually ends with sexual, domestic, and gender violence [by prison guards] not being addressed and police having more excuses to go after the black community."
The numbers support claims of disparity. In a report researched by MassINC (a non-partisan, public policy think tank) and published by the Boston-based Jobs Not Jails–an advocacy group that aims to redirect $2 billion in state prison funding toward economic reform–incarceration rates for African Americans were found to be eight times higher than for white residents. As for the culprit … in her book, The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness, civil rights lawyer Michelle Alexander writes that "nothing has contributed more to the systematic mass incarceration of people of color in the United States than the War on Drugs."
On Saturday, protesters sought to trace the direct lineage between bigotry and sexual misconduct in prisons. Kelly Chudler, a BFL activist, believes that addressing the intersection of rape culture, racism, and violence simultaneously highlights multiple concerns within the penal system on a larger scale.
"I'm really stoked to keep working with the BFL and to keep working on issues that are really intersectional with feminism," Chudler said. "I feel like we're starting to change the idea of what feminism is because as much as I strongly believe about ending rape culture and street harassment, it also connects to mass incarceration and racism and classism."
At around 1pm, local organizations including Hollaback Boston–a movement to end street harassment–and Jobs Not Jails began marching. And marching. And marching. With other groups joining in solidarity, BFL members and a host of individuals walked the streets of Boston for more than two hours, hoisting signs–"Feminists Against Mass Incarceration," "Close Prisons Not Schools"–and obstructing traffic in Beacon Hill and the Back Bay. At one point, the roaming rally stopped in the area once known as the Combat Zone–the Hub's former adult entertainment district–giving Sullivan a ripe opportunity to speak about the mistreatment of sex workers by the Boston Police Department.
Other stops included Macy's in Downtown Crossing, Citizens Bank on Exchange Street, Government Center, and the Department of Mental Health, where poets and speakers lectured on capitalism, corporate greed, gay rights, and psychiatric abuse against inmates. As the march moved past Government Center, mild policing from the BPD hardly slowed down protestors, who dutifully marched up Congress and Merrimack Streets towards their last stop at the Nashua Street Jail.
Approaching the prison, protesters raised their fists in solidarity with inmates, many of whom responded by banging on their windows in appreciation. A member of Black and Pink–an organization supporting LGBTQ people caught in the prison industrial gauntlet–addressed the incarcerated onlookers and approaching demonstrators alike: "There are 639 people locked up in this jail as of yesterday. Almost everyone locked up here is awaiting trial. Black and Pink members have been locked up here over the past year-and-a-half or so. And thankfully … we've bailed them all out. But there are still 639 people that we need on this side of the wall."
Following the Break Out march, movement members gathered at the Community Church on Boylston Street to write holiday cards for inmates, share a vegetarian potluck dinner, and listen to performances by Flatline Poetry and the Boston folk punk outfit Absinthe Rose. In the spirit of the afternoon, the special guests were all colorfully on message.
"You don't have to be the person that organizes everything or goes to every fucking meeting," said Kimbo Rose, the band's lead singer. "Activism to me is discovering this smallest, most minute thing that you can do to help support a cause. Everything you do is powerful, no matter how small it is."

In this first year of the Office for Community Engagement, we hope to talk to students who
- have participated in a meaningful community-based or service learning course
- have completed or are currently involved in an internship in which you were mentored by both an employer and faculty member
- have completed or are currently involved in research (usually with a faculty member) on assets, causes, or solutions related to a community challenge.
If this sounds like you, your perspective will be invaluable as we seek to learn the following things:
- What was the best aspect of your work with a community partner and what did you gain from the partnership? What did you contribute?
- What were the core factors that made your learning experience meaningful?
- Given your experience, what do you see as the most pressing needs, challenges, and opportunities facing our region? How might GVSU lead and contribute to addressing these needs?
If you have insights to share, we would love to have a conversation with you! Please get in touch with us by emailing Ruth Stegeman at email@example.com or by calling 616-331-9120.

I like the Beach Boys too, Lew. I haven't seen them, but I've seen the Four Freshman jazz group of singers and instrumentalists way back when. And guess what?
"Brian [Wilson] taught his two brothers harmony parts that all three would then practice when they were supposed to be asleep. He also played piano obsessively after school, deconstructing the harmonies of The Four Freshmen by listening to short segments of their songs on a phonograph, then working to recreate the blended sounds note by note on the keyboard."
Also note that "At about age two, Brian heard George Gershwin's 'Rhapsody in Blue', which had an enormous emotional impact on him."6:36 am on September 28, 2012 Email Michael S. Rozeff

Cherry Tomato Caper and Balsamic
So, we're assuming a "lug" is a hearty splash. If you want to get technical, a tablespoon should do it. This is one of those great sauces that comes together as you are boiling the pasta. Don't overlook possibilities to serve it room temp on some grilled bread. From JAMIE'S FOOD REVOLUTION by Jamie Oliver.
- 4 cloves of garlic
- 1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes, about 25, mixed colors, if possible.
- Olive oil
- Dried oregano
- 2 tablespoons capers, drained from brine
- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
- A pat of butter
- Balsamic vinegar
Peel and finely slice the garlic. Halve the tomatoes. Put a frying pan on medium heat and add 2 good lugs of olive oil. Add garlic, a big pinch of oregano and the capers. When lightly golden, add your tomatoes; season to taste with salt and pepper and stir. Add the butter and 2 big splashes of balsamic vinegar and stir again. Leave the sauce to bubble away for around 3-5 minutes. The tomatoes will soften and make a lovely rich sauce. Serve hot with your chosen fish or meat, or stir into hot cooked pasta.

Religious experience is an indispensable key to the understanding of human behaviour and thought. The Religious Studies Programme invites students to join in current scholarly efforts to identify and to understand different forms of religious experience from a number of disciplinary perspectives.
In the core course, students will learn how to use various analytical methods to explore the rich variety of the world's religious traditions. They may then, if they wish, concentrate on one religious tradition (Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism, Sikhism, etc.) or they may take a comparative approach. Students are expected to acquire breadth both in disciplinary approach and in subject matter.
Traditionally, Religious Studies has been a small programme, which emphasizes personal contact between its majors and the faculty participating in the programme.
- Congratulations to Alicia Turner for co-editing a special issue of the journal Contemporary Buddhism (vol. 14.1 dated May 2013) entitled "A Buddhist Crossroads." Alicia also was a SSHRC Insight Development grant for her project, "Buddhism Across Boundaries: Subaltern, Plebeian, and Peripheral Networks in Colonial Southeast Asia."
- Congratulations to Tony Burke for the publication of his new book, Secret Scriptures Revealed: A New Introduction to the Christian Apocrypha published by SPCK in Europe with a North American edition from Eerdmans due in November, 2013.
- Congratulations to Tomer Sasson, winner of the 2013 Vanier College Convocation Prize in Religious Studies (The Vanier College Convocation Prize is awarded to a graduating student in Religious Studies with the highest GPA)

Outlook 2011: Three Dominant Factors Will Impact Precious Metals in 2011
[[wysiwyg_imageupload:2296:]]By Nick Barisheff
As we near the end of the first quarter of 2011, the potential for a widening of the uprisings in North Africa and the Middle East has pushed oil prices past the $100 mark. Long before the riots began, commodity prices had risen to uncomfortable levels, having soared over 30 percent in a matter of months.
Currency creation by emerging market central banks was, and is, a major factor behind the rise in oil prices. Egypt's M2 money supply, for example, rose 13.3 percent during 2010, while China's M2 money supply increased by 17 percent and India's M3 money supply increased by 15 percent. When currency creation outpaces GDP growth, too many artificially created rupees and yuan and pounds and euros chase too few goods, and price inflation results (Figure 1).

Why voters elect 'criminals'
Awareness campaigns for voters or debates on campaign finance can only have a limited effect
This election season, there has once again been a great deal of debate on the reasons that lead to so many known or suspected "criminals" being elected in India. Two questions have been asked: Why do political parties field so many "criminals"? Why do voters then select "criminals" when they go to the polls?
While both questions are worth addressing, this article will focus on the latter. Two explanations have been put forth as the cause of the choices that Indian voters make. For some, the relative lack of information among the electorate is important: because many voters simply do not know who has been convicted of serious offences, let alone who is suspected of such offences, they continue to vote for poor characters. This is in part the logic that motivates the efforts of civil society organisations such as the Association of Democratic Reforms and National Election Watch. If information is the problem, a solution may be to ensure that voters know whom they are voting for when they go to the polls. The second, frequently proposed, explanation emphasises the "demand" for criminal politicians: because strongmen and other "Robin Hood" type figures may be able to bend the rules and better serve their constituents — even if this is done at the expense of social welfare — some voters may value criminality.
There is certainly some truth to these explanations. Other arguments may also be proposed. The commonly held perception among voters that criminal charges are political in nature — understandable in a judicial system prone to so much undue influence — likely does not help. As a consequence, even well-publicised criminal charges may not necessarily damage a candidate's reputation. More importantly, voters may not always perceive that they actually have alternatives. In a climate coloured by general distrust of the political class, voters may doubt that a presumably virtuous candidate — one who has not incurred criminal charges — would in the long run turn out to be a more virtuous representative than a "criminal" they are already familiar with. Moreover, some voters will not even have to contemplate such a choice when they go to the polls this election season, insofar as the two or three main candidates they will be choosing from may all be facing criminal charges.
Yet these arguments may be missing an important point. Whether voters select virtuous representatives is only partially related to the information to which they have access, to how they react to criminality and to the alternatives they face. continued…

Berkeley Lab Friends of Science &
The Advanced Light Source Users' Meeting
Science Lecture
Monday, October 9, 2006
7:30 p.m.
Berkeley Lab Building 50 Auditorium
Imaging the Cellular Universe
Dr. Carolyn Larabell
Professor of Anatomy, University of California, San Francisco;
Professor, Berkeley Lab Advanced Light Source;
Director, National Center for X-Ray Tomography
Microscopes are among the most important instruments in any scientist's toolbox. Since they were first used over three hundred years ago to see individual cells, microscopes have become increasingly more powerful and complex. Microscopes are now available that use light, electrons, and x-ray sources. Each of these microscopes has provided unique glimpses into the intricate structures and functions of cells. Although all cells have the same genetic composition and initially look alike, cells acquire unique shapes and functions throughout development into the adult organism.
We now know that each cell of the human body is an elaborate universe capable of performing complex and highly coordinated functions. Microscopes have captured many of these events, revealing an astounding world within us. Professor Larabell's lecture will take you on a journey to the cellular universe revealed by microscopy.
Reservations for this event are required, so please send an email to email@example.com to save a place, or contact the Community Relations Office at 510-486-7292. Reserved parking will be available near the Building 50 Auditorium.

By G.A.Ponsonby
Prime Minister David Cameron is today facing ridicule after claiming that North Korea had the capability of launching a nuclear attack against the UK.
The PM made the surprise comments on a visit to Scotland in order to promote the renewal of the Trident Nuclear Weapons system that is housed on the Clyde.
Claiming as "fact" that the North Koreans could hit the UK with nuclear weapons, the PM said: "North Korea does now have missile technology that is able to reach, as they put it, the whole of the United States and if they are able to reach the whole of the United States they can reach Europe too. They can reach us too, so that is a real concern."
However the Prime Minister's claim has been ridiculed by weapons experts who say that the North Koreans possess no such capability.
Responding to the Conservative leader's claims, the crossbench peer Lord Ramsbotham, a former army officer, said: "There is no evidence at all to suggest the North Koreans possess a weapon which the Prime Minister suggested could pose a threat to Europe or indeed to us."
Mark Fitzpatrick, Director of Nuclear Non-Proliferation and disarmament at the International Institute added: "North Korea does not have any missile capabilities that could hit Britain and it is difficult to envision circumstances when North Korea ever would want to attack the UK even if they could."
Another expert James Hardy, Asia Pacific Editor of Jane's Defence Weekly, said: "From what we know of its existing inventory, North Korea has short and medium range missiles that could complicate a situation on the Korean Peninsula (and perhaps reach Japan), but we have not seen any evidence that it has long-range missiles that could strike the continental US, Guam or Hawaii."
According to one expert writing in the Washington Times, the North Koreans missile capabilities rely more on boasts than actual tests.
There was further alarm when the PM insisted that the threat from the North Koreans was increasing. However last night Downing Street appeared to be trying to backtrack on Mr Cameron's claim, saying the PM had merely been talking of the boasts from the North Korean leadership.
Mr Cameron's remarks have sparked comparisons with Tony Blair's infamous claim that Saddam Hussein could launch weapons of mass destruction against the UK within 45 minutes. The claim underpinned Labour's argument that the UK should take part in the invasion of Iraq.
Labour MP Paul Flynn called Mr Cameron's claims: "wild, hysterical, desperate scaremongering" adding: "There's about as much truth in this as Tony Blair's 45 minute claim."
The claims by Mr Cameron came as he visited Scotland in an attempt at persuading Scots that the Trident nuclear system brought economic benefits to Scotland and acted as a deterrent against unstable regimes.
However there was further embarrassment for the Conservative leader when former Conservative Defence Secretary Michael Portillo cast doubt on the PM's claim that the UK's nuclear arsenal was relevant to the North Koreans.
Speaking to the Times newspaper, Mr Portillo said it was absurd to believe the UK would use its weapons against the North Koreans and that it was the USA's nuclear arsenal that deterred Pyongyang. The former minister also argued that investing up to £30 billion to renew Trident would be pointless
He said: "If anybody is going to use its nuclear weapons, and provide the deterrent, it is the United States. South Korea and Japan are operating under the assumption that they are beneath the American nuclear umbrella and so do the United States' other allies.
"To say we need nuclear weapons in this situation would imply that Germany and Italy are trembling in their boots because they don't have a nuclear deterrent, which I think is clearly not the case. They too believe the United States provides a deterrent to a rogue state."
Mr Portillo added: "I am not opposed to nuclear deterrents. I believe in them. But I don't believe in the modern world it is necessary for Britain to have one."
Mr Cameron's trip to Scotland brought criticism from the SNP which has pledged to remove WMDs from Scotland should Scots vote Yes in the 2014 referendum.
Commenting on the Prime Minister's visit, Deputy First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said it underlined how out of touch the UK Government is with the priorities of people across Scotland. She also said that all of the available evidence points to Scotland being opposed to Trident.
Ms Sturgeon said:
"Trident isn't the answer to the threats we face as a country. It diverts resources from conventional defence - which in Scotland has faced disproportionate cuts by successive UK governments - and the vast amounts of money spent on Trident and its replacement would be far better spent on other priorities. Furthermore, all of the available evidence - including votes in our own Parliament - point to the people of Scotland being utterly opposed to nuclear weapons being based here."
The Deputy First Mnister said that independence would remove Trident from Scotland but confirmed that the Faslane base would remain as a conventional naval base and joint forces HQ.
Responding to claims by Mr Cameron that Scotland currently benefited from defence spend, Ms Sturgeon added:
"The reality is that we contribute far more than is actually spent on defence in Scotland, as the official figures show. The real damage to the defence footprint in Scotland is being inflicted by the UK Government.
"The cuts in Scotland have been disproportionate – with the loss of 8,800 military and civilian MOD posts between 2000 and 2012 – a decrease of over one-third in Scotland, compared to just one-fifth across the UK. The UK Government then went back on its promise to right that wrong and redress the balance.
"The Prime Minister visit also comes in the same week that his government has introduced the Bedroom Tax - a deeply unfair policy that will adversely affect thousands of families across Scotland.
"That is the kind of issue that is concerning people the length and breadth of this country – and for the Prime Minister to focus his visit on the case for nuclear weapons shows that his priorities are wrong and that he is out of touch with the needs and aspirations of ordinary families in Scotland.
"The case for independence is simple and it is powerful. Decisions about the future of Scotland are best taken by the people who live and work in Scotland. Independence will allow us to take decisions appropriate to our needs – whether about defence, the economy or welfare.
"The referendum next year will give the Scottish people the right to take decisions in all of these important matters into our own hands."
The Press and Journal goes further today - Article saying that NKs nuclear weapons could hit Scotland. Why would they want to do that?

December 21, 2014
OTTAWA (AP) - Canada's House of Commons has passed a bill that would make it illegal to discriminate against transgender people.
The bill now goes to the Senate, which is unelected and is expected to approve it.
The bill is one of the first tests of the Conservative caucus' resolve on gay and transgender rights in Canada at a time when Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird has been mounting a strong defense of such rights abroad.
The legislation passed Wednesday by a vote of 149-137, with the crucial support of 16 Conservatives, including four cabinet ministers.
Prime Minister Stephen Harper opposed the bill.

How much guifenesin must I take to feel better with my fibromyalgia?
- Q: How much guifenesin must I take to feel better with my fibromyalgia?
- A: Guaifenesin is an expectorant that helps loosen congestion in the chest and throat, making it easier to cough out through the mouth. It is used to reduce chest congestion caused by the common cold, infections, or allergies. The usual dose is anywhere from 200 mg to 400 mg taken every 4 hours, up to a maximum of 2400 mg in 24 hours. Common side effects of guaifenesin include dizziness, headache, nausea, vomiting, and stomach upset. This is not a complete list of side effects that can occur with guaifenesin. A search of the medical literature for "fibromyalgia and guaifenesin" yielded two studies. One tried to find a laboratory marker for diagnosing fibromyalgia and the other was a telephone survey about supplements used by fibromyalgia patients. Neither one of these can be used as a reliable reference for recommending a dose in fibromyalgia. A search of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) clinical trial database at clinicaltrials.gov did not find any current or completed trials looking at the use of guaifenesin in fibromyalgia. Consult your doctor for specific recommendations on the use of guaifenesin in fibromyalgia. For more specific information, consult with your doctor or local pharmacist for guidance based on your health status and current medications, particularly before taking any action. Sarah Lewis, PharmD

Former Republican Sen. George Allen to Write Book
July 8, 2009 - 9:38 AM<br />
Regnery Publishing in Washington says the former Virginia governor's new book will be titled "The Triumph of Character: What Washington Can Learn from the World of Sports." It's due out next June.
Regnery says the book will show what politics can learn from the world of sports, a meritocracy based on athletic achievement and teamwork, and how that can help America surmount its challenges.
Allen was a college quarterback at Virginia and is the namesake son of the late Pro Football Hall of Fame coach of the Los Angeles Rams and the Washington Redskins.
In 1993, cowboy-booted, tobacco chewing Allen's election as governor over a heavily favored Democrat launched eight years of the greatest GOP gains in Virginia history.
The senator was a serious prospect for the 2008 GOP presidential nomination before losing re-election in 2006 to Democrat Jim Webb. Allen's campaign imploded after he famously called a Webb campaign volunteer of Indian-American descent "macaca," a slur in some cultures, as the aide videotaped an Allen campaign rally.
Allen now heads the American Energy Freedom Center, a nonprofit advocacy group opposed to Democratic energy proposals such as cap-and-trade.
Regnery has published political books by former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, actor Chuck Norris and political commentator Ann Coulter, among others.

Philosophers In The Enterprise: As Bacon Says, Knowledge Is Power
Teaching may seem the most obvious career choice for philosophy students. But it's not the only one. Epistematica, which provides tools and services for Linked Data and semantic web applications, sees opportunities for philosophers at any organization that will be publishing Linked Data.
"Any organization that will want to be in the semantic web will need a philosopher," says Dr. Marco Romano, Epistematica's chief knowledge officer – a graduate in Philosophy at RomaTre University, who also has a Phd in Logic from Paris 13 University.
Why? "In order to produce a good ontology or even also a good vocabulary that can be really useful in the semantic web, that is to connect to Linked Data on the web of data, you need a philosopher, someone who can look at things on the web, to understand what they actually are and how to describe them in the most suitable way. That is, such that it is well-useable and understandable to machines, to services that will use that data, but also to the people [who will want] to find it."

The U.S. financial media have been focused almost exclusively on domestic politics over the last several weeks, but equity investors around the world have not been so myopic. The SPDR S&P 500 SPDR (SPY) languished from October into the year's end, but indexes on China (FXI) and Mexico (EWW) surged.
4Q 2012 International Equity ETF Returns
Source: Condor Options
While there are plenty of opportunities in U.S. stocks for 2013, volatility traders can find some even more interesting situations by broadening their scope. Global investing is not just about buying international ETFs or ADRs, or even trading foreign listed stocks. As implied volatility indexes on major exchanges and ETFs have become more widely available, there are more opportunities than ever for options traders. That's what we are going to discuss in next week's " Volatility World Tour" presentation.
As a starting point, we can look at the recent historical volatility of global equities, broken down into three large chunks: the U.S. (SPY), developed markets excluding North America (EFA), and Emerging Markets (EEM).
In the attached video, we show the three-month historical volatility of these ETFs since 2003. Most investors are aware that emerging market stocks tend to be more volatile, overall, than developed market large caps. However, this longer-term comparison shows two interesting developments. First, emerging market realized volatility has become much more correlated to SPY swings since the 2008 financial crisis.
Second, EEM has actually been less volatile in recent weeks than both SPY and EFA, and the three-month trailing estimates are all converging at about 14%. This is consistent with what we saw above in terms of asset returns, but it is historically very unusual. We will look into this in more detail shortly, including especially how option markets are pricing global stock volatility and which products offer the best edge right now.

Dancing with the Stars' American Week wraps up as one more couple is cut. Did anyone in the three-way tie at the bottom of the leader board exit the ballroom? Plus: Maks confirms he's sex on a stick.We get down to business right away (and by the way, could Brooke's dress be any tighter?) The two couples that didn't tie with anyone else face off.First safe couple:Hines and KymKirstie and Maks are in jeopardy.Romeo and Chelsie deservedly get the encore, but the best part of it is Toby Keith walking aimlessly on the makeshift stage waiting to perform. Dude clearly wants to be anywhere but Dancing. Maybe that scowl threw off Maks and Lacey, who mess up their cowboy routine. So Maks avoids a faux pas with Kirstie but still manages to record three mishaps in a row. And here I thought John Travolta cured them. At least Anna and Jonathan were basically perfection on the floor during the second number. P.S. Can Jonathan please come back next season?After Romeo's international man of mystery alter ego (obviously, he attends the Meryl Streep School of Accents) threatens to put superglue in Hines' toothpaste, the second-place scorers learn their fates.Next two safe couples:Chelsea and MarkRomeo and ChelsieChris and Cheryl are still in jeopardy.Filler time! Psycho Mike returns to "expose" the conspiracy behind Dancing eliminations. Like producer intervention? Nope! The truth about the cast: Hines farts, Romeo can charm the bra off Chelsie (though he looks like he's never seen a bra before) and Len curses. But nothing tops Maks confirming what we all knew: "I'm like a stick that has been dipped in a boiling pot of sex." So that's how they make sex on a stick! After a Macy's Stars of Dance tribute to New York City, the bottom-dwellers hit the stage.Next two safe couples:Ralph and KarinaKendra and LouisThat leaves Petra and Dmitry in jeopardy.Next couple safe:Kirstie and MaksPetra and Dmitry, and Chris and Cheryl are not necessarily the bottom two.And the couple leaving is... Petra and Dmitry.Not surprising when it was between these three. Though I would've booted the perennially miserable Kendra, Petra didn't seem long for this, especially after Kendra displayed her staying power last week already. Are Hef and the bunnies power-voting? Plus, models don't have the fan bases that actors, musicians, athletes or even (sigh) reality stars do. This is what America's come to. Still, Petra should've outlasted Kendra. She was gracious, adorable, sweet and had potential, not to mention the right attitude. She says it's been a life-changing journey and that schools supported by her Happy Hearts Fund have started dance-athons.Next week's theme is guilty pleasures (how fitting), but the bigger news: Pia Toscano will sing on the results show, accompanied by a performance by her "close friend," as Tom advertised, Mark. "Close friend"? Is that what we call it these days? And the biggest news: New Kids on the Block and the Backstreet Boys will perform as well. Be still my heart! NKOTBSB FTW!What did you think? Was Petra the correct boot? How miserable did Toby Keith look? Why are Anna and Jonathan so flawless? Should Hines be wary of his toothpaste? What are your guilty pleasure songs? Will next week be Mark and Pia's giant coming out party? Has Maks been dipped in a boiling pot of sex? Who's your pick to win it all? Vote below!
