Whitney Houston's life of glorious song and unnerving self-destruction apparently ended in a bathtub at the Beverly Hilton Hotel on Grammy weekend, but it could be weeks before investigators know exactly why she died.
Coroner's officials say they will not release any information on an autopsy performed Sunday at the request of police detectives investigating the singer's death. Houston was found in the bathtub of her room, but Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter declined to say anything more about the room's condition or any evidence investigators recovered.
There were no indications of foul play and no obvious signs of trauma on Houston's body, but officials were not ruling out any causes of death until they have toxicology results, which will likely take weeks to obtain. Beverly Hills Police Lt. Mark Rosen said that his agency may release more details Monday about Houston's death, but it will depend on whether detectives feel comfortable releasing any information.

The Utter Fallacy of "The Superman Idea" Debunked - Or How to Shut Any Statist Up, Within SecondsSubmitted by Cyril on Fri, 03/08/2013 - 16:08
I have always considered this specific point as having the purest essence of Bastiat's thought on the law and liberty.
I also believe we will never emphasize enough how important it is to our cause for defending and protecting fiercely the value we put in the Golden Rule with liberty, for peace, justice, and prosperity.
Thus, I eventually felt this would deserve a post of its own.
Hence this refresher about the indefensible...
The Superman Idea - debunked by Frederic Bastiat :
Feel free to challenge any statist with this, any time.
That'll hopefully help them think twice next time they'd go to advocate their use of their arbitrary morality and force against the People - or against ANY People, for that matter.
For liberty.
- Login to post comments
awesome, thanks
Bastiat is the man. Everyone should read The Law.
"The welfare of the people in particular has always been the alibi of tyrants." — Albert Camus
/pffff This question? What question...
It's a loaded question that presupposes anybody who answers is a statist, and that they don't want you to be free.
"If the natural tendencies of mankind are so bad that it is not safe to permit people to be free, how is it that the tendencies of these organizers are always good?"
They aren't "always good", but it sure is fun listening to covetous people try and pretend they're serving justice isn't it? It's enough to make a Libertarian salivate.
What are YOU suggesting, we allow them to operate behind closed doors and freely use collective force? Anarchy? Is Anarchy your solution in world a filled with people begging for what injustice offers?
If you want liberty, you'll have to serve justice, and if you won't serve justice, you're worthless to liberty and for the same reason those organizers aren't "always good"; because the world is filled with covetous people.
Giving up isn't winning. It's nihilism.
You should want people to be free and to have their liberty, and if you know what threatens it, you'll win the debate and serve justice.
Except the statist may argue that
They don't believe in the power of themselves and instead want to put a system in place accountable to the people and with no individuals wielding too much power. That is what they will argue at least. Bastiat is awesome though
but if people are inherently bad
won't they abuse the system? If they aren't inherently bad, then why do we need the system?
"The welfare of the people in particular has always been the alibi of tyrants." — Albert Camus
To Which You Might Retort...
Ah yes... despite centuries of historical evidence to the contrary, if we could only get the RIGHT tyrant in charge this time, the State might finally become a benevolent, all-powerful force for good.
Bastiat was a rhetorical master who stopped just short of grasping the big picture becasue he himself was a member of parliament.
Yes, but
his intellectual heir, Molinari, did! Molinari was the first anarcho-capitalist.
"The welfare of the people in particular has always been the alibi of tyrants." — Albert Camus
Indeed, he was, and most of his contemporary fellows ignored him
Indeed, he was, and most of his contemporary fellows chose to ignore his logic, while I don't think we have any excuse any longer to do the same. We can just look out of our windows.
Check this one out, too, quite entertaining:
Petition from the manufacturers of candles, lanterns... and generally of everything connected with lighting
"Cyril" pronounced "see real". I code stuff.
"To study and not think is a waste. To think and not study is dangerous." -- Confucius
Yeah, great stuff
I've read just about everything of his I could find.
I suspect that the mercantilists of the time murdered him, sent over some TB-carrying "laundry woman" or something. Maybe, though, it's just because I have a soft spot for him and his exceptional writing.

December 21, 2014
WASHINGTON (AP) - Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel is ordering a shakeup of agencies responsible for accounting for tens of thousands of Americans missing in action from foreign wars, a mission heavily criticized as wasteful and fragmented.
Hagel's press secretary, Navy Rear Adm. John Kirby, announced Thursday that Hagel wants the two main accounting agencies combined into a single organization. For years the two groups have engaged in bureaucratic warfare.
Hagel ordered his policy chief to give him a plan within 30 days to better account for as many of the missing as possible - and to make the government's accounting work more transparent to families of the missing.
The issue surfaced last summer when The Associated Press revealed an internal report calling the accounting mission "dysfunctional" and inept.

Good OS Cloud: Linux as Quick Start for Web and Windows
Best known for its Wal-Mart Linux PC called gOS, Good OS is presenting a new Cloud browser operating system at the Netbook World Summit in Paris. The compressed Linux kernel boots up as an integrated browser.
The Good OS Cloud offers users a bootup of just a few seconds on their netbooks of preconfigured favorites such as Google, Yahoo and Microsoft's Live search engine. Cloud should also boot up a Windows system.
The software will be demonstrated at the Paris conference and the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas on a touch screen netbook from Gigabyte, preconfigured with Cloud and Windows XP. More information about the Cloud should start appearing on the gOS website.
Booting up the Cloud also provides access to rich client applications in the integrated browser, according to the company's claims.

What kills me..... (VENT)!!! - page 10
I'm sorry but this will be a vent. After working 13+ busy shift in the ER, I come home to log on to here and it simply kills me that NON-nurses (including those in nursing school, or taking pre-reqs, or those who have not even... Read More
- 2Jul 15, '10 by SWS RNQuote from eriksolnI don't think not posting at all is the answer. Just remembering they are speaking to the choir would be enough most of the time.
People also don't seem to remember, nursing attracts people who are not "the norm". Those of us who have been in the field a long time tend to acquire strong opinions, some defensiveness, strange/dry humors and broken backs. Our views obviously are not going to match those of someone with, oh, say, an accounting background who is on the outside looking in. There are a great many things out there people will tell you, if you have not personally experienced it, you don't know what it is like: war, being robbed, being raped, a roller coaster, alcoholism, quitting smoking. Nursing is like that, if you haven't done it for a few years, you just don't understand us.
Well said Eric=feel the same way myself, and sometimes nursing is like war, rape, a roller coaster and it drives you to alcoholism!!!!!
And with that...I can just hear the comments from the very wanna bees that this thread is about
but, do I lie?
- 8Jul 15, '10 by eriksolnQuote from SWS RNI created a thread a while ago about non-nurses posting. I was very headstrong in it, a bit of a bully TBH. One very special "patient" talked to me offline about why they come here and like to chime in from time to time. I've since changed my views on who should and should not post on Allnurses.Well said Eric=feel the same way myself, and sometimes nursing is like war, rape, a roller coaster and it drives you to alcoholism!!!!!
And with that...I can just hear the comments from the very wanna bees that this thread is about
but, do I lie?
Its not a matter of being allowed to post or not belonging here. Its a matter of timing and of knowing when your input is appreciated and when.......well, when the nurses are on here looking for like minded people to vent with. I have my issues and vents that I just don't care to share with patients/accountants/physicians/students. There are times where only another nurses input is going to help me. It is those times I resent the input from non-nurses.
Case in point: At work, I was venting about a very needy drug seeking patient. He was constantly asking for his methadone earlier and earlier. A major PIA. He would do things to make you come to his room, like kink his IV line so it occludes and you have to shut off the beeping. Then, when you were there, he'd start with the "Hey, since you are coming in here anyway, may as well get my methadone, I'm kinda starting to feel anxious." I wanted to strangle the guy. I was complaining about the whole thing to ANOTHER NURSE, and basically said he needed to straighten up and how I didn't care if he was happy or sad cause "He's an uninsured, no use to society drug addict abusing the system. Let him be unhappy, in fact I hope his is. I may just bring his methadone a bit late."
She told me to take a deep breath, reminded me why we were there and said to go take a five minute break. She also pointed out that whether he was insured or not was really not my business, shouldn't even enter the picture for how I feel about him.
Now, if an accountant/other pt./student had said any of the things to me she did, especially at that point in time, I'd have knocked their block off. But, its different coming from another nurse, someone who can give the advice/criticism and say "I've been there too, I know why you feel that way."
It is when moments such as this one are taken from me because people just can't help but think they are your brethren when they have not earned the right, that is when I resent the non-nurses.

State Of Homelessness In N.H., 2013
By Laura Knoy
A new report paints a complex picture, including that the number of un-sheltered homeless has jumped by twenty percent over the past year. We'll look once again at this stubborn problem and ongoing efforts to address it.
- Eileen Brady – social worker and advocate who works directly with the homeless at the Nashua Soup Kitchen and Shelter
- Lenny Constant – was recently homeless and is now an advocate for the homeless in the Granite Leaders program. He is currently enrolled in Mount Washington College.
- Sharon Drake – CEO of Serenity Place, a substance abuse, rehabilitation, and education center in Manchester
- Cathy Kuhn – director of the New Hampshire Coalition to End Homelessness and director of research and training at Families in Transition, a homeless service provider.
You can find the report from the New Hampshire Coalition to End Homelessness here.

Our free shipping offers are valid ONLY for FULL CASES of Mountain House Cans (6 of same item) and NuManna Food Buckets delivered to a valid physical shipping address within the contiguous U.S. (48 lower states only; our free shipping offer is not valid for Hawaii or Alaska orders). Any additional items will incur shipping charges which are based on UPS Ground rates.
Expedited shipping requests and undeliverable or refused orders do not qualify for our free shipping offer.
Larger orders (over 300 lbs.) will typically ship by freight; all others via UPS Ground.
We always do our best to accommodate requests for special shipping instructions. Please understand that "No Signature Required" (and similar) instructions releases all liability from TheEpicenter.com and the shipping carrier for any loss or damage to the package at delivery.
All undeliverable or refused orders will be charged initial shipping cost plus return shipping cost and processing fees (see our Returns & Refunds Policy).
All shipping costs are based on UPS Ground Service (shipped from our location in Eugene, Oregon).
We ship at approximately 3 p.m. on weekdays (non-holidays). If your order is submitted and received by Noon (West Coast/Pacific Time), we can usually get it out the same day. Orders received after Noon will generally ship on the following business day (excluding weekends and holidays). Orders submitted after Noon on Friday (and on weekends) will typically ship on the following Monday (except Holidays). No weekend or observed holiday delivery options are available for UPS Ground. Shipping charges are non-refundable.
Faster Shipping Options are available by special request: 3 Day, 2nd Day Air, and Next Day expedited services. Saturday delivery is an option for 2nd Day and Next Day service at an additional charge. Faster shipping options will increase normal Ground delivery charges by up to triple or more.
NOTE: Some items are not eligible for expedited air shipment due to FAA regulations (i.e., MRE heaters, matches, fuel, and similar items).
If you need an item faster than normal "Ground" delivery time, please place a note in the Special Instructions box advising us with what date and time you need your order. We will contact you with the revised shipping cost before final processing and authorization for additional shipping charges.
Shipping costs are automatically calculated based on your Shipping Zip Code (Contiguous Lower 48 States only). Our system calculates your shipping costs based on best shipping conditions (i.e., if all your items can be shipped in one box, etc.). In some circumstances, we are not able to place all of your items in one box -- our system accounts for those conditions and charges you accordingly. A good example: When a case of MREs is ordered along with a Siphon Pump, the MRE case will be shipped by itself, and the siphon pump will be shipped in another box.
NOTE: UPS has a 1-lb. minimum per box shipping charge that applies to all orders.
Please note that we are located on the West Coast. The same items shipped to New York and to California will have very different shipping costs! That's because California is closer to our shipping location than New York is, and the shipping charges are based on both weight and distance. So be prepared for higher shipping costs if you reside on the East Coast.
Alaska and Hawaii Orders: Our system does not calculate shipping to Alaska or Hawaii. Please call us at 541-684-0717 to place your order. We typically ship orders to Alaska and Hawaii via USPS Priority Mail-Insured (2-3 business day transit time). NOTE: Certain items cannot be shipped to Alaska or Hawaii due to FAA regulations.
We will contact you by email or by phone to let you know if an item is out of stock or if your shipment will be delayed.
As soon as your order has shipped, we will send you a shipping confirmation email with tracking number(s) for the shipment. If you do not receive your shipping confirmation, you may want to check your Email spam filter. Or, you may contact us at 541-684-0717 for your shipping/tracking info.

men-u db Premier Shaving Brush With Chrome Stand & Free Ultimate Shave Facial Set
Good barbers use a quality shaving brush to facilitate the optimum shave. The bristles have to be a balance between resistance to raise the beard and softness to generate a fine, rich lather. These bristles are soft like badger (definitely not badger as they are synthetic!) but with resistance to raise the beard, making a closer cut easier. Badger bristles are very much like human hair in that they have scales making for a rough surface, they tend to be damaged and often hollow. This means that approximately 50% of shave crème being used penetrates and coats the bristles never to make it to the area to be shaved and not all is rinsed out after use. Hence the reason why these bristles suffer from product build up over time and need to be cleaned out as well as using approximately twice the amount of shave creme!
- The synthetic bristles are non-absorbent, so they need less shave crème and create a richer lather.
- Add a little more water to the bristles after shaving and you will probably have enough lather for a second, closer shave.
- Easier to clean the bristles and keep them clean.
- Using the stand helps promote the longevity of the bristles and is best hygienically.
How to use:
Use with Men-u Ultra Concentrate Shave Crème for a completely new generation of shave and process of exfoliation women can only dream of! If you know of a better shaving combination, let us know. A good, close shave provides a degree of skin exfoliation that a woman can only dream of! To do the best for your skin, after shaving and rinsing use Men-u Healthy Facial Wash, rinse and pat dry with a clean towel. Then apply Men-u Facial Moisturiser lift to complete the facial experience. Shaving can remove up to two layers of skin. There is no other regular activity that does this, which is why it is so important to use a good quality moisturiser.The db Premier Shaving Brush & Chrome Stand includes a Free Ultimate Shave/Facial Set worth £5.95!

Diwali, India's Glittering Festival Of Lights!
India is known for many colorful and fun festivals. But none are as popular as Diwali, a festival that spans over five-days and extends across many cultures and beliefs. It is therefore not surprising that the ancient observance, which is also referred to as Deepavali, (row of lights) is the biggest and most eagerly awaited of all Indian celebrations.
