17 Conference Dr
Felton, CA 95018-
Phone: (831) 430-4357
Up on the crest of the Santa Cruz Mountains, where Highway 17 winds its way through the redwoods down, down, down to the beaches of Santa Cruz, lies little Felton, a speck of a town surrounded on all sides by thick stands of redwoods. One of the best places to slip into this peaceful setting is local favorite (but off-the-beaten-track) Mount Hermon Conference Center . It's privately owned, but the staff welcomes day visitors, even with pets on leash. Download or stop by the main office for a free trail map , then find a pretty stretch to explore—trails are generally easy and good for all levels, and kids love splashing in the creek. Afterward, if your kids are the type to perk up at the mention of Bigfoot, visit the nearby Bigfoot Discovery Museum , two rooms packed with footprint casts, videos to watch, and a staff of true Bigfoot-believers to show you around all the "evidence." Still have time for more? Consider a ride on the Roaring Camp Railroad for a ride through the woods on a 19th-century steam train. End with a tent and a campfire at Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park with 15 miles of hiking trails and redwoods estimated to be up to nearly two centuries old.

Step 1: Ingredients
- 170g (1/2 cup) light corn syrup (or golden syrup if you're across the pond)
- 58g (1/4 cup) butter, room temperature
- 375g (3 cups) confectioner's powdered sugar (icing sugar)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- yellow food coloring
- 1 (12 ounce) bag milk chocolate chips

Step 2: The Filling
Cream together the corn syrup, butter and vanilla.
Sift in the confectioner's powdered sugar and beat until incorporated.
Ok yeah, that was it.
Now to get fancy and separate the filling into whites and yolks!
Take out about a third of the filling and stir in some yellow food coloring. Now you're done!
Put the two bowls in the fridge, as they're easier to work with once they're set up a little.
* 2 cups sugar
* 3/4 cup water
* 1/4 tsp. cream of tarter
* dash of salt
Combine all ingredients in a heavy, large pan. Stir and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer and put a cover on for 3 minutes to get sugar crystals off the sides of the pan. Uncover and cook until it reaches soft ball stage. Stir often.
Cool syrup and store in a covered container at room temperature. It will keep for 2 months. Yields almost 2 cups.
(can't recall where I copied this recipe from, but the result is good)
However, if you live near Aldershot, there is an American food store, which also has an online shop that sells corn syrup. Postage starts at £4.50.
I made these a while ago and will definitely be making these again. Instead of doing full eggs, I made them as halves. They went down a treat! :)
Those eggs look good. Love this idea
Hi! These are awesome! I'm going to make them for my mum for mothers day as she loves these eggs!:) I was wondering if i could use glucose syrup derived from corn, instead of corn syrup? Are they the same? Oh and how long do you need to make them? Would they store for a few days? Thankyou!!! Can't wait to make them.
Licking the spoon, the centre tasted very vanilla and buttery. However, on cracking open the egg 2 days later, it tasted EXACTLY like the real thing :)
My girlfriend said she's always dreamt of a huge Creme Egg, so this has made her childhood wish come true.
I'm in the UK and managed to get the Karo Light Corn Syrup from ebay (americanstuff666)

to release the shells from the molds easily, pass the mold over a pot of boiling water.. they should pop right out. too long over the steam and the shells will soften and melt.. so do a quick pass then give them a tap to see if they release.
My family just LOVEs these!
Messed up the chocolate though so all my little yolks are chillin for now till I can restock on the chocolate.
i've seen them around but never attempted to eat one LOL
thanks for replying :)
I dipped them in 350g of melted choc mixed with tbs veg oil and set them on baking paper. I quickly took the skewers out before they set.
I also added HEAPS more vanilla. They taste like the cadbury ones only VEGAN :D yay! So proud haha.
Corn syrup = glucose = same stuff your entire body runs on.
High fructose corn syrup != corn syrup. They are different beasts. Get this straight! HFCS contains 55% fructose, which breaks down in the liver to fat and toxins, and is not good for you.
Plain old corn syrup is just glucose and is harmless like mice, except that it has exactly the same potential to raise your blood sugar as any other kind of glucose.
Please pardon me for not writing a scholarly paper describing every single facet of the life-cycle of the fructose molecule, to make it clear that I was speaking not only of the HFCS fructose molecule, but the one found in fruit as well, and that I know full well that they are identical.
Also, I respectfully suggest that your information regarding the harmless nature of fructose simply because it "comes from fruit" is sadly out of date. While that is what was thought of fructose at one time, it is no longer currently held, because the metabolism of fructose is now better understood. It is now known that it is largely responsible for fat deposition, the production of uric acid, contributes to hypertension and gout, and several cancer-causing and potentially damaging enzymes and waste products. It can also produce copious quantities of very-low-density lipoprotein, which you do NOT want. (VLDL "very bad" cholesterol, which you want to be LOW.)
Watch this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBnniua6-oM and follow the biochemistry. This is a medical lecture on the subject, and goes through the metabolism of fructose IN DETAIL.

"This dish came out too spicy for me. Looking back, I guess it was the 1 teaspoon of red pepper flakes, which now that I think about it, seems like a lot for a vegetable dish. I also found myself adding salt at the table, but maybe that's because I used low sodium vegetable broth. With some modifications this would probably be fine though."""

I bumped into a problem while trying to write application that uses MVVM pattern and AvalonEdit. I think that it is hard or even impossible to write that kind of application at the moment because you can only bind Document property of TextEditor, other important information about current state of this control can't be saved.
In my view I've got TextEditor which Document field is bound to Document property of ViewModel. There is ObservableCollection of ViewModels which is bound to TabControl's data source. If you change tab, TabControl reuse View. It does so by binding appropriate fields of View to ViewModel. At the moment I can only bind Document property so I lose information about current caret position, current selection and probably TextAnchors (I didn't test that one).
There are a few solutions which can be applied:
Are there any plans of making AvalonEdit more MVVM friendly?
No, there are no plans to make AvalonEdit more MVVM friendly.
If you really need to export the state of the editor using MVVM, then I suggest you create a class deriving from TextEditor which adds the necessary dependency properties and synchronizes them with the actual properties in AvalonEdit.
Thanks for suggestion,
What do you think what information should be available via dependency properties so that the current state of TextEditor can be saved?

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

Adam/Victor/Jack SPOILER!!
Nick tells Victor about Sharon's diagnosis in the hopes that his dad will back off, but that still doesn't stop Victor from going after Sharon.
Victor blackmails Adam to get NE back for him, and in return, he will not press charges against Sharon.
Adam agrees but tells Jack about Victor's plan, and that he's just going to play along with it because he doesn't believe Victor has enough evidence against Sharon or himself for causing the other fires. However JG states....if Adam does feel the threat against Sharon is real, will he then betray Jack? That is the question here.
Also, the article mentions in the previews for 2013 that both Billy and Victoria will team up against Adam to get NE back.

Nick and Sharon SPOILER!
Nick is determined to keep Sharon out of jail for burning the ranch. He obviously cares for Sharon, but the driving force behind this is really for their children, notes JM. He says Sharon has been less than stable for a while and that affects Noah and Faith. Nonetheless, Victor wants to see Sharon prosecuted and Nick has to do something. He offers to help Victoria fight for Newman if he backs off Sharon. JM says Nick is completely done with Newman but he realizes this could be a way to get Victor to back off. Victor turns down Nicks offer, too little too late. Nick lets Sharon know that his attempts failed and she ask could Faith stay the night with her. Nick is reluctant but agrees after Faiths puppy dog eyes, Morrow laughs. Soon as Nick leaves Sharon packs up and heads out with her daughter. Later, Nick and Avery show up and find the place empty. Nick sees clothes thrown about everywhere and assumes Sharon has run because she has done this before. As Nick dials the police, Sharon walks in with Faith. She confesses that she was going to run but decided against it. Avery offers to represent Sharon, which calms her down.

I hope they don't decided to get sentimental and "recreate" the old ranch house because they loved it so much.
I remember when the fire gutted Brad's house when Sharon was living there (what is it with that woman and fires?) and when they rebuilt the house they restored all the decorating, including managing to buy a couch that looked exactly like the one that was there before the fire.

Faculty with the CSU system held strikes today at 2 campuses including the East Bay campus in Hayward. The California Faculty Association is the union that represents faculty members in the CSU system. Faculty members on strike were picketing since 8 in the morning, blocking the road leading to campus. However, there were non-union faculty members who continued going to their classes.
Meiling Wu has been teaching Chinese and Japanese in the Foreign Language Studies Department for ten years. She has witnessed tuition fees increasing over the years but she hasn't had a raise for five years. Wu adds, "Besides a pay freeze for the past five years, we voluntarily cut our pay by 10% when the state faced financial strain two years ago. However, when it's time for a pay raise, only the top 1% gets it."
Zhulan Wang has been teaching Social Work for seven years at CSU and says she has only received one pay raise throughout her tenure when she was promoted. Her pay has never been adjusted despite her contract providing for it. Wang says, "If you don't have money, why do you only increase the pay for the executives and not us, and yet ask students to pay more. Where has the money gone to "
Those on strike claim that in the 13 years that Chancellor Charles Reed has been leading CSU, tuition fees have gone up by more than 2.5 times and Reeds' pay has increased by 66%. And, despite the California Price Index rising by 43%, the general salary of faculty has only gone up by 27%.
CSU Board of Trustees voted to raise tuition fees by 9% yesterday (Nov 16), so students also joined their professors in the strike. One student says, "University fees that don't make any sense and they keep rising, rising, and rising. The reduction of classes are offered in the university, as well as an increase in class sizes. They can't give individual attention to students, so I do support the teachers."
The other campus affected by today's strike is Dominguez Hills State University.

VolitionRx Files Two Patent Applications
NAMUR, Belgium, April 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- VolitionRx Limited (OTC: VNRX), a life sciences company focused on developing blood-based diagnostic tests, announces that it has filed two new patent applications. The first patent application is an extension to the Nucleosomics ® technology for the detection of histone modifications in nucleosomes; the second covers the use of Volition's Nucleosomics ® technology in personalized medicine as a predictor of the efficacy of cancer treatment.
"The use of Nucleosomics in the expanding field of personalized cancer medicine is a new early stage development for us but represents an exciting prospect with the potential for real patient benefit," said Jake Micallef, Chief Scientific Officer of Belgian Volition.
VolitionRx already holds patent applications worldwide for a number of methods of detecting nucleosomes and nucleosome structures; both in-licensed and self-authored.
"These two patents complement our existing Nucleosomics IP, providing us with greater intellectual property protection for our NuQ ® products," said Cameron Reynolds, CEO of VolitionRx. "While we work towards applying for regulatory approval for our clinical products in both Europe and the US, we continue to carry out research and development in our Belgian laboratory, expanding our intellectual property base and our understanding of the possibilities – both in diagnostics and therapy monitoring – for our Nucleosomics technology."About VolitionRx VolitionRx is a life sciences company whose goal is to make its non-invasive blood tests for cancer as common and simple to use as existing diabetic and cholesterol tests on similar formats. VolitionRx's development activities are currently centered in Belgium with a focus on bringing its revolutionary diagnostic products to market first in Europe, then the U.S. and worldwide. You can find more information about VolitionRx at our website at www.volitionrx.com, on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/VolitionRx, LinkedIn at www.linkedin.com/company/1364072?trk=tyah or Facebook at www.facebook.com/volitionrx.

Osama Bin Laden is dead – prove it
When the news broke that Osama Bin Laden was dead, at the Reuters Global Pictures Desk in Singapore all we could think was one thing: We have to see the picture of the dead body. The world needed the tangible proof of a genuine photo before we could really absorb the idea that the world's most sought and also most elusive Islamic extremist was dead. We also knew that the news agency that was first in sending a picture of his dead body to the world would go a long way to winning this historic story. Sending out a fake picture could be very embarrassing to say the least – a tough balancing act when under such pressure.
A few hours later there it was circulating on the internet: Osama Bin Laden's bloodied face in a video transmitted by a TV station in Pakistan. Under tremendous pressure we could get the picture and fed it into our picture editing system in preparation for transmission around the globe.
But was it really Osama? It was rumoured that the source was US military but the editors on the Global Picture Desk found inconsistencies that immediately made us suspicious. There was odd pixilation and blurring and his face was darker in some areas than others. The biggest problem was that the picture looked familiar somehow. Quickly looking through dozens of our archive pictures we found that the bottom half of Osama Bin Laden's face was identical to a picture of him speaking at a news conference in 1998. After flipping the picture 180 degrees and overlaying it with the picture of the dead Osama Bin Laden we had a perfect match. It was a fake.
The fake picture was locked in our system so that it couldn't be sent out but would be saved for future training exercises. Meanwhile, the fake picture quickly gained momentum in cyber space.
We're still waiting for that genuine picture of the body of Osama Bin Laden.
I did a Google image search on "dead osama bin laden" early this morning and found the same image.
horrendous photoshop job done on this image.
This is obviously a fake image. Why were we allowed to see Sadam's (and his son's) death pictures for weeks on end and not ONE of Usama? Where's the O gone? If so respectful to his religion why bury a desert dweller at sea? Consider the timing too. Happy happy joy joy!! I'm suspicious. People who NEED/WANT to believe this? DIG deep, and ask questions. Don't just accept what they tell you!
Already debunked.

I tend to agree with this. FIrst thing I though of this conspiracy was that they killed an obl lookalike, photoshopped the photos, threw him to sea, etc. I believe this is a tactic to boost a failing presidency of obama bin biden. Pakistan was paid off. Maybe it was a deception even the Navy didn't know about?
He Isn't dead… it's obvious that the picture is made up.
oh brother. This guy wants to be prez again so much he is rolling out fake birth certifs, (why couldn't Abercrombie find it and airmail it to him, instead he had to send a special delegation of one "lady" to pick it up and hand deliver it?) he is still hiding other documents… guess that Prof at Occidental that he brought into the Oval Office right after he sat down behind the desk to talk about his "plans for health care" (per the Prof to a reporter haha) is still on the job watching out for O's records there. Now he issues ORDERS to KILL Osama, regardless of how much Americans wanted him CAPTURED so he could talk. Like the birth certif, looks like the "kill" was fake too. After all, Obama can tell most of the people anything most of the time, and most of the people will believe him. But like Lincoln said, some of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time, but not all of the people all of the time. Get it?
You can wait, reporters, for the real deal photo and real deal birth certif, but it won't land in your laps. You'd have to be smart and investigative RISK takers, because there are sufficient liars, crooks, thieves in govt today who love to kiss arse… and now same bums are lie-ders of military, think they are smart to con us with anything… until SUMBODDY like the little soldier the bums kept in solitare, or like Assange, pops up with the patriotism to fight these devils and get the truth. Better stop shopping, ladies and look at your children, your homes, your country, your schools, the peds now in Dept Ed, and your sick society. Ladies pretty much covers it all.
@ 1776 …This picture is OLD. Obama has nothing to do with its resurfacing.
Reports say he "resisted" ..indicating he was probably armed. Its hard to capture someone going down with a fight without losing any men (Navy SEALS).
So you're a birther? Nothing is ever going to please those with a similar disposition towards the whole birth certificate topic..
Maybe its the classic Elites vs everyone else. They control the flow in information (news media corporations ..owned by the super rich aka elites) and they also are in government. The president is merely a puppet, like that position has likely always been.
Just my take on things.
I spotted this as a fake, too. A poor fake at that. What the hell? I believe bin ladin died a while ago and now the government is trying to take credit. They buried the body at sea? Yeah… right…
The photo looks like a man who has been beaten to death, not shot?
Faking images is from all times, belonging to all major historical events. Sometimes it is done by 'underground' people, sometimes ordered by the governments (remember Lenin & Stalin event manipulations?) & sometimes governments just take advantage of the wild public rumors, pleasing the public opinion. In this case it is a real fail of the creator, using a well-known public image. It becomes an art when it is taken over by all major press-agencies as genuine historical image.
Shot twice in the head and his body dumped at sea from a helicopter, yea, sure gov, we believe you, you've never lied to us in the past. I hope Al-c.i.a.-da don't follow through with their threats of nuclear cataclysm now that we got the big O. Or are we headed for yet another false flag event? Watch the skys. Keep your heads down.x
glad to see not everybody is sucked in by medias (official" story. the man the yanks have been looking for nearly a decade, is found, killed and his body is tossed to sea!!!!? i find that hard to belive. Saddams two sons were killed their moustaches and beards were put back on and paraded on tv all over the world. saddam himself remember, his hanging was leaked onto the internet for all to see. apparently no country wanted to take his (bin laden) body. if a government can make up stuff like this i wouldn't put it past them to inflict an attack on its own people and blame it on someonelse to achieve their stealth occupation of the arab regions (oil.) this is just the tip of the ice berg for a whole new wave of propaganda. where they're going with this is anyones guess, but one thing i know for sure, there are few more wars the yanks have left to fight to achieve (i hope to God they don't.) new world order agenda.
I think Obama is so desperate to be re elected he'll do anything to get some feathers in his cap at this point cause he has done NOTHING productive for this country thus far. First the news reported "U.S. has posession of the dead body" then 10 minutes later the news reported Bin Laden's body was thrown overboard!!!!. What a crock. How naiive people are. Where are the pix of the dead body? I think most Americans can stomach the viewing at this point– we had to see the dead bodies of 911 victims. Convince us this guy is DEAD Barack OBAMA. I hope Trump runs for prez and Americans wise up! Americans: demand pictures of Bin Ladens Body -don't believe everything you hear! Buddygirl.
picture is old. Bin Laden had more white hair in his beard lately. Also the picture of the dead bin laden shows the same mouth being open when he speaks. Lips are lifted and I find it strange that the mouth would look like this even when dead. photoshopped maybe?
Once again, we are fed lies from official sources, with no chance of repudiating them. They've disposed of a body – whether it's OBL's or not – so they can just shrug off all requests to prove it was him.
The fake photograph is just the latest in a long, long line of con-tricks the governments of the world are pulling on us, the "unsuspecting" public.
Tony Blair's remarks were also very telling.
when i saw that photo of dead osame i knew it was photoshopped and i'm not even a good photoshopper. When people die, the mouth relaxes it isn't "held" in a living position.
On the same search page of "dead" osama were pictures of live osama…the mouth was the same…also the photoshopper messed with the proportions of the eyes they are misplaced in the dead osama photo.
Also floating around on the net is a photo that some newspaper provided as "evidence" that Obama was in college and played basketball. Another photoshopped photo that was ez to see Obama had been "added" to the original photo…and the photoshopper copied a jacket off one guy on the back row! They forgot to change the number on it after putting the jacket on obama plus the photoshopper forgot to put the band on the sleeve..they manipulated a few areas of the jacket but it still glared as a "copy" jacket from the boy sitting to Obama's right a couple people down. I can't believe the people who fall for this junk from this so called "president'..he is a thief and a liar and the truth is not in him. And that situation room photo, please.
Well all we can really do is hope its real. If he's dead, then he is dead. If not then we'll still have to deal with it, simple as that… Seems kind of funny though that they buried him at sea and did it so soon. They claim that it was according to Islamic law but I don't know enough about it to know for sure. Ive never heard of it till all this happened so it seems weird.
Benazir Bhutto: Bin Laden was Murdered (2007)
The BBC had excised Bhutto's comment but was forced to reinsert the footage in its version after the unedited version appeared on YouTube.
Benazir Bhutto, who told David Frost in late 2007 that Osama bin Laden was murdered by Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh, who is also one of the men convicted of kidnapping and killing journalist Daniel Pearl.
On January 18, 2002, Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf announced quite bluntly: "I think now, frankly, he is dead."
On July 17, 2002, the then-head of counterterrorism at the FBI, Dale Watson, told a conference of law enforcement officials that "I personally think he [Bin Laden] is probably not with us anymore," before carefully adding that "I have no evidence to support that."
In October 2002, Afghan President Hamid Karzai told CNN that "I would come to believe that [Bin Laden] probably is dead."
In November 2005, Senator Harry Reid revealed that he was told Osama may have died in the Pakistani earthquake of October that year.
In September 2006, French intelligence leaked a report suggesting Osama had died in Pakistan.
On November 2, 2007, former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto told Al-Jazeera's David Frost that Omar Sheikh had killed Osama Bin Laden.
In March 2009, former US foreign intelligence officer and professor of international relations at Boston University Angelo Codevilla stated: "All the evidence suggests Elvis Presley is more alive today than Osama Bin Laden."
In May 2009, Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari confirmed that his "counterparts in the American intelligence agencies" hadn't heard anything from Bin Laden in seven years and confirmed "I don't think he's alive."
Journalists have not asked the right questions.
1. Wikipedia used to say that both the ISI and French intelligence reports claimed that Osama bin Laden died from his kidney problems in December 2001 following the invasion of Afghanistan. Then Pakistan President, General Musharaf agreed. Over the following 10 years there have no credible videos of him, so the weight of evidence would indicate he died then.
2. Abbottabad is a city of 120,000 people with an elite Military Academy of 1000 staff and students less than 2km away from his compound. Everyone familiar with Pakistan will know that in these 'small' cities everyone knows everyone's business so it is just not credible that his presense went unnoticed, especially by Military personnel.
3. The US has claimed his body was dumped at sea in accordance with Islamic customs. This announcement was made within hours of his death. So how credible is to believe they flew his body 300km back to Afghanistan by helicopter, then transferred it to a plane? And flew it a 1000km to where exactly? And dumped it in sea. What sort of plane? A slow cargo plane? A slow helicopter? How and where was the body dumped? Where are the photos of them dumping it? Presumably these are not too gruesome.
4. It is not Islamic custom to bury bodies at sea unless they died on a boat. The religious requirement is that bodies be buried the same day close to where they died and a prayer be held for them. Was a prayer held for him by an Imam, in the plane before they tossed his body into the sea? If Islamic custom was being followed he would have been buried in an unmarked grave near his home. Even Saudi kings are buried in unmarked graves and no there are no grave-shrines in that country.
5. The announcement was that the DNA was verified from his sister. DNA testing takes a minimum of 12 hours to perform. Which lab verified it? Was it based in Afghanistan. The testing must have been done after his body was dumped at sea.
6. There are inconsistencies in the story. Eyewitnesses say a rocket was fired at one helicopter and it crashed. YouTube clips show children picking up helicopter parts. US Officials have stated no helicopter was shot down but say one had mechanical faults.
7. It is said the house was suspicious because it had no phone or internet. From YouTube it appears they had Satillite TV. How do we know they didn't have a phone line? In Pakistan where phones are unreliable most people are using mobiles so there is nothing particularly suspicious about not having a phone line, if indeed that is true. As for the internet, Pakistan has wireless too, so perhaps they used that.
8. When Saddam Hussein and his sons were killed; film, photos, DNA tests and a very late burial were all documented and released to remove doubt.
The WikiLeak cables have documented the dishonesty of the US Government in relation to the War on Terror. Yet the media have blindly accepted there latest announcement as if its the Gospel truth. Why hasn't anyone demanded evidence?
Is it possible they have not released any photos because there are no photos? Is it possible the photos are of someone else? Is it possible they have not released further DNA information because there isn't any to release?
One letter to an editor presented a scenario which should be examined. It goes like this.
1. The US needed to have a bogeyman in Afghanistan so continued saying bin Laden was alive even though evidence showed otherwise.
2. The Afghan Government is trying to talk to the Taliban to end the war which is not going well. Afterall it is said 'empires go to Afghanistan to die'. Britain, Russia and seemingly the US have all found that out. It is very possible the Taliban may return to some sort of power again.
3. The US would find it easier to justify scaling back and withdrawing from the region once their arch-enemy, and reason for going there (bin Laden) was dead. By killing him they withdraw claiming 'Mission Accommplished'. Sort of like the 1973 Agreement over Vietnam allowing an honourable withdrawal.
4. Possibly this compound in Abbottabad, which may or may not have direct links to either Pakistan's ISI and/or a terrorist group, had relatives of bin Laden. Conducting this operation is a good cover and has won media approval.
Until; photos, DNA evidence and video film footage of the operation (which the US cabinet are seen watching live) are released, it should not be believed it was bin Laden who died there.
This account would not hold up in court and it should not be accepted prima facie by the media either.
The news about the death of Osama bin Laden is much less important than the popular uprisings moving on in the Arab world.
Bin Ladens death is not immensely relevant considering the huge revolution in the Arab world that was probably kindled by Osama's raw courage in spite of weak resources and hostile world opinion.
If the Arab masses think that a Osama the big "terrorist" contributed massively to Arab regime change, then Osama had achieved something. The wrong way or right way, is for historians to judge.
How was Omar Mokthar the Libyan freedom fighter and martyr judged by Italian historians and the Arab historians? Did they use the same yard stick? But the Arab streets seem to say thank you to Bin Laden for feeding a flame that has all the potential to rage into an out-of-control blaze.
Bin Laden always wanted to get rid of Mubarek and Ben Ali and Gaddafi and so on claiming that they were all "infidels" working for America.
We have to remember that these oppressive regimes have always been telling the Americans to keep on supporting them because they kept saying, if you don't, Al Qaeda will take over . Did Al Qaeda take over Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Yemen, Syria, Algeria, Morocco, Jordan and so on or is it going to take over?
What and who helped them to take over is going to be an interesting part of historians' future investigation and research.
Celebrations in the United States over Bin Laden's death are less meaningful compared to the celebrations of the Arab masses on the successful people's revolutions partly fuelled by the lunatic fringe called Al-Qaeda.
If the U.S. had killed Bin Laden a year or two after 9/11 the celebrations that are going on in the United States might have been more relevant.
The struggle against terrorism will not be won through killing, no matter how many people we assassinate.
You don't fight malaria by seeking to kill every mosquito on the planet, but rather by draining the swamps ( Please address the root cause, look at for instance, the sufferings of Palestinians:the dispossessed,deprived of their birthright and denied basic human rights and freedoms,)
The pious Christians also believe that if we could accomplish God's justice by killing people, Jesus would not have come to die, but to kill. But that's not how God's justice works but does the Neocons justice work the same way?
It does not look like a fake to me, though I am no expert. This same photo appeared in an Irish newspaper, The Evening Herald on May 2nd, giving credit to the Pakistani TV on which this photo was shown. I only came to this site at the request of my friend that was telling me it was fake. Misinformation is abundant, leading to much speculation about what is actually real or unreal. However, I do believe he is dead, so it matters not if this is the real deal photo or not. Gadaffi, better start packing your bags. Get out while you still can.

Fox Johnston of Sydney creates plenty of contemporary spaces and homes– but this built piece of architecture was an integration of sorts. An old electric substation that was built in 1916 just so happened to also be the site for a new home.
While the interior of this old building was stripped down, the exterior walls proved to be in good standing and now serve as a barrier to shield its inhabitants from the street noise. An interior courtyard serves its purpose beyond those old walls, and the contemporary space beyond is a beautiful difference between two worlds. There was former trenching on the first level which is now purposed for wine storage, kitchen and laundry spaces– while the private and remainder of spaces are all located just upstairs.

|Transient Global Amnesia (Newsletter)
Subject: Transient Global Amnesia (Newsletter)
by TheFool on 2011/10/15 15:00:25
A lot of my inspiration for these conversation topics come from WNYC's Radiolab and this one is no exception. In the episode Loops they describe the condition Transient Global Amnesia, which is something I had never heard of. If I understand it correctly it is the temporary loss of your ability to form short term memories. Yeah, you heard that right, as in, you don't remember what just happened. Interestingly doctors do not know what causes it or how long it lasts, usually less than a day, or for that matter how to fix it.
Well, if you listen to the podcast a daughter and mother pair sit down after the mother is diagnosed and has a conversation that literally resets every 90 seconds. She starts by asking what day it is, then is surprised that she has missed her birthday, the conversation turns to her trying to recall her last memory, the daughter tells her the story of how she ended up here, and the next question is what day is it? What struck me is not only is the flow of the questions nearly identical every single time, but the way she says things is the same. Every time she laughs the same, she says "darn" the same way every time she realizes she missed her birthday, it's SUPER creepy.
So where am I going with this? Free will. I've always tried to explain to people that in the right conditions humans don't exhibit free will at all. You study it in consumer behavior class, but basically the reality is in the above example it shows that humans can be 100% predictable. Faced with the same set of variables the woman replies with the exact same answers every, single, time. Since she has no short term memory it is the only time that I have ever been able to cite something as a specific example of this phenomena.
This leaves us with a heavy question: There are basically 3 main paths you can pick on the debate on free will. 1) We don't have any free will. If we knew all the variables we could accurately predict behavior with 100% accuracy from birth to death. 2) We have complete free will and our decisions are inherently unpredictable. 3) We have some kind of mix of free will, where our moment to moment decisions are predictable but taken as a whole we are unpredictable. In this example a second key question arises, where is that dividing line between what makes us predictable and what makes us unpredictable?
So that's it guys: Do we have free will? Is the above series of events definitive proof that, at least to some degree, that we do not? Listen to the podcast yourself from about 7:30 ~ 15:00. http://www.radiolab.org/2011/oct/04/
I know if you reply it will be because you have no free will to resist! Or is it because you have free will to not listen to my jibes? Mysterious.
Words from The Fool:
I'm certainly not the first fool philosopher to discuss this topic. Mostly it ties into religion, which I tend to avoid talking about because people get a little upset over it, occasionally ending in theological genocide. I'll say this though, while the religious minds of today seem to be focused on the idea that we DO have free will it was not always this way. At the dawn of the age of reason people like Laplace and Luther had a great number of followers that believed that their lives were pre-determined. While modern quantum theory has rendered these arguments more confusing than ever, one thing is for certain, there's no easy answer to be found. No fooling

Israel Donowa (18) and Charlotte Scally (20) currently studying at The Urdang Academy have beaten hundreds of other young hopefuls and have earned a prized place in the BBC's prime-time dance competition "So You Think You Can Dance". The series started with a shortlist of 20 hopefuls who are currently battling it out on the dance floor in this popular competition to find Britain's favourite dancer.
Israel Donowa is in his final year of a Dance Diploma and the youngest of the 20 competitors. He may be young but he has already performed alongside Flo Rida and Whitney Houston. Israel, known affectionately as "Happy Feet", chose Urdang because of its reputation and strength in all dance styles. Absolutely determined about his future in dance, he showed total dedication to his training when cast in the Thriller tour, Israel declined because of college commitments.
Israel's ambition is to become a well-known choreographer and through teaching, to inspire other young people to dance. From Hackney, he sparked his passion for dance at 13 when he went to a hip-hop dance show, from there he attended classes and joined Impact Dance, a Hip Hop dance group, who recommended that he apply to Urdang to train professionally.
Charlotte Scally is in her second year of a Dance Diploma. Having always loved dance she trained and performed from an early age in disco freestyle and tap. Charlotte auditioned (and got scholarships from) several top dance colleges but chose Urdang as she knew she could be herself and would be encouraged to find her own unique style and not just fit in.
Charlotte is from Watford and is relishing the opportunity of taking part in BBC One's So You Think You Can Dance and is finding it highly rewarding to be working with a range of top choreographers and dance styles. Inspired by Arlene Phillips and Sheridan Smith in her role in London West End's Legally Blonde, Charlotte's own ambition is to be chosen for a West End lead or to tour with a show.
We wish them both "All the Best"
