Lenovo's dual-screen ThinkPad W700ds
Lenovo has been forced to announce the ThinkPad W700ds ahead of the planned CES announcement after a page on the IBM website went live early - and if there's ever been a laptop worthy of being referred to as "the hamburger with the lot", it's this one.

Lenovo ThinkPad gets anti-theft Remote Disable feature
Lenovo is introducing a new security feature for ThinkPad notebooks which allows users to remotely disable their PC via SMS. Developed in conjunction with Phoenix Technologies, the Constant Secure Remote Disable feature is effectively a kill switch that works by creating a mobile phone text command such as "lockdown now PC" or "PC shut off" and sending it to the computer's onboard broadband service. If the PC is turned off when the command is sent, it's automatically disabled the next time it registers on the network. Read More
Lenovo's IdeaPad S10 Reviewed
Netbooks are typically a "me too!" product, created by manufacturers who think their Intel Atom-based, small form factor notebook is going to stand out from the countless others, despite little to no attention being paid to the areas that could differentiate their product from the rest. Lenovo's IdeaPad S10 is a welcome deviation from the norm that's just as suited to the touring musician as it is to the couch surfer. Read on for our full review. Read More

Am 27. März 2012 03:23 schrieb David Robillard :
Thanks for pointing out, David.
I don't totally agree with using symlinks:
- I tend to think, that file-systems are not as efficient as databases
- I feel that symlinks pollute the file-system
- What if any of the symlink to symlink is deleted - do applications
still know, where the file is which they had been pointing too ?
- Some apps would want to store additional info relating to the file
(meta-data, tags, related info, ...), thus requiring a simple database
- having symlinks leaves the user with the question how to reliably
copy a directory, without messing up everything (dereference yes/no,
follow links yes/no ...), something that is critical to deside
I don't totally agree with a file- vs. copy-directory:
I mean: is there really a semantic difference between a created, a
modified file and a copy ??
I think no. After modification, creation, duplication, etc., soon
you won't be able to say, weather a file is a any of the above. I
mean: For one app it can be a file (original), while for another it
can be a copy / reference / whatever.
For an app, there may be a semantic difference for
A: existing files a user added, which are ORIGINALS (thus refs),
never-modified ones
B: files the app created or modified, thus copied - files that are
NEWONES (thus real and refs)
note: a modified or created file can become an ORIGINAL for a
different application !
that's what I meant above, in 2.
C: files that are HISTORY, the user may want to delete these anytime,
to store space
- a history-file can become an "original" - what now ?
My conclusion:
- -
1. large files should never go to the session directory
2. Lfiles shared between apps have to be managed by a (super-)
instance that knows what's going on - the session-manager - otherwise
it's completely undefined/unclear what happens
3. Lfiles newly created (recorded / modified ) - for ALL sessions - go
to a common NSM-Lfiles directory
4. The session manager knows, of EVERY reference to files inside the
NSM-Lfiles dir.,
distinguishing between
- CURRENT_REFS (files currently used by any instance)
- HISTORY_REFS (file not currently used by any instance) (this is
equal ALL_FILES minus CURRENT_REFS)
- EXTERNAL_REFS (files referenced by any instance, but not contained
in the NSM-Lfiles dir. and NOT created/recorded/modified by any
instance )
5. this means, the user is disallowed to manually reference/link to
any of the files contained in the NSM-Lfiles dir (because the SM
wouldn't know about it)
6. The SM knows all files-in-use and is able to move unused
history-files to a dustbin (no app is allowed to use/reference files
within the dustbin). The dustbin can manually be deleted by the user
7. The SM allows Lfiles (CURRENT_REF + EXTERNAL_REFS) for a certain
session or app to be copied to a user-defined directory
8. The SM allows HISTORY_FILES to be moved to a dustbin folder. (not
including CURRENT_REFS or EXTERNALS)
IF I did not forget / oversee anything critical, this looks like a well managed
and reliable approach to me. Any opinions ?

Best Political Poster Advert
Funnier than the Labour / Tory mash-ups doing the rounds currently. It is genuine. Guido liked it a lot…

I don't miss the alcoholic, warmongering simpleton.
Or his poodle Blair for that matter.
The Tories should stick a poster with the same wording but carrying a picture of Blair outside Labour HQ.
Seconded… though might just remind people how callmedave leapt to his feet and applauded Blair on his last day in the commons.
I don't need reminding of that, thanks all the same. I cringe at the very thought of it, and so should DC.
it's funny because he's a despised warcriminal like Bliar and Campbell
*chortle* *chortle*
I bet you never ever see one of Brown on any billboard in the UK. It would cause a riot as people tried to leave their answer…..
they did
only it was their own poster campaign with Dave Blairs mug and 'It can't go on like this'
no surprise it was defaced and mocked mercilessly
My thoughts exactly. "NO!"
Say what you will about Obama's policies, at least he doesn't sound like a slow child.
Watch him without TOTUS.
Correct. Obama sounds as if he missed out childhood completely, swallowing a computer program (c++?) instead.
Owsblog had this 3 weeks ago! :-)
if you want a very good microcosm of what the yanks say go here.
and you might get posters like this 3 months befor they show up here.
Thanks for that link Egad
Don't miss him yet, but the Yanks are starting to. Big time!
Whereas the Maximum Imbecile is programmed in brainfuck.
And yes – it is a real programming language, though admittedly a bit useless for most tasks ;-)
Bring back the "Mission Accomplished" logo. Funny if not so tragic.
ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! That lying war-mongering sack of shit whore of the new world order should rot in hell.
Now Americans should get rid of the insane war-mongering replacement Obama.
I Agree with Sara Palin, "how's that hopey changey thing workin' out for ya?"
Ned, you cannot agree with a question.
"How are you today?"
Bring back Caligula, all is forgiven!
No, I think Bush was a terrible example of the dangers of reforming alcoholics – wouldn't the world have been a better place if he had just quietly drunk himself to death?
I saw that on the tree of liberty last year.
Vote for Harriets Arse on Rear of the Year
I'm voting for Brian Paddick.
Old Holebore's link just leads to another link that summons your email client. A spot of basic web skills can come in handy if you have ambitions to be a twelfth-rate, online version of Rush Limbaugh.
His site is vile: ignorant, prejudiced, attention-seeking.
There's so much hatred in the world. OH, try reading the gospels. Matthew, for a start.
Is that a misprint – surely Harriet IS arse of the year?
Surely that is rear-end of the year. Those parked cars don't just crash themselves you know.
Red Ken Livingstone is going to copy this.
BoJo has been a let down.
Does Bojo actually do anything?
Talks down to a lot of Poor People
Well, I prefer politicians who DON'T do a lot. At least he seems to enjoy himself unlike commie Ken….oh, and he makes me laugh.
"It is hard to think of a single Chinese sport at the Olympics, compared with umpteen invented by Britain, including ping-pong, I'll have you know, which originated at upper-class dinner tables and was first called whiff-whaff" – classic!
Oh yeah, bring back Ken so he can re-stock his fucking wine cellar.
His website has some interesting dissertations on Athenian politics, New York restaurants, Boris at the Copenhagen Smugfest and road works. It must take some time to write.
Its a jumped up council. His articles are written by taxpayer funded staff.
At least they're written by a more articulate and educated bunch of tax-payer funded staff than the shit that was produced by Chairman Ken's little red crooks.
same bunch who cant get jobs in the real westminster or the city
Another few weeks and a whole bunch of new jobs will be coming available in Westminster as the previous lots apparatchiks leave clutching a Waitrose bag full of biros and post-it notes. Oh, and a P45.
Licks banker's arses!
Politicians that DO alot seem to cost a lot more of other people money.
Boris is doing fine (apart from the AGW junk).
Too P.C. by half!
He showed you could have fun in the job!
Funny :)
At least Labour won't run with Brown's visage after the GE.
But the Tories can run with Brown for the next 25 years – remember him, remember what he took from your pension, your children and your grandchildren….
That could just as easily be a pro-Obama poster.
Obama might not have achieved much but his hands were rather tied by the hospital pass of an economy that he got from the Idiot-in-Chief. Just as Cameron's hands are tied by the utter clusterfuck shortly arriving in his lap.
This could work for almost all politicians, Blair, Thatcher, Churchill, Hitler.
Say what you like, I miss him!
Yeah,just like a rash you and your i'm with you George stooge Bliar.
Not as good as this one…
It features Joanne Cash in a short skirt, eighties style open-blouse, big glasses and corn-rows in her hair…
Tell me again, How DID she persuade the Tory High Command to do the 'rescuing a damsel in distress' thing for her with her constituency association ??
The Baroness does sport a fab pair of funbags though.
The little matter of her husband being an Old Etonian may have helped.
This poster is genius.
The "billboard was paid for by a group of small business owners who feel like [sic] Washington is against them."
yeah, you know, like know what I mean, innit.
Is he inviting people to throw shoes at him so he can dodge them?
The scales are falling from american eyes.
Cometh the man cometh the howler
"Miss me yet?" Nope.
It does beg a nice big Ad right next to it: 'HELL, NO!!'
Do we have to count the bullet holes?
John McCain would have been a better President. Barack Obama is still wet behind the ears politically.
McCain would have started world war three (the real hot nuclear one) by now.
Ron Paul would have been a far far better President and the entire planet would have been much better off if He had been elected President.
actually, I rather like 'ole Barack. His mistakes are the same sort of mistakes I reckon I would make if I were in his position and generally he is not doing too badly.
On healthcare he is right but has had a run of bad luck . He should keep plugging on.
Bush had some good points but the invasion of Aye-raq negates them all.
Just thought I'd let let you morons know my thoughts for the day—–
A bit like the mistake your mother made with your father. One night stands can have tragic consequences.
Yes he needs to put a humongous millstone around the neck of the American people, just like the NHS is for us Brits. And before you start, I actually work for the NHS.
Oh no. The lie that Obama is giving is that this will be funded (compulsory natch) by the companies themselves. The companies will provide all this medical care using 'magic money'. This is 'magic money' that is totally different to 'real money' that traditionally gets spent on other things like wages and R&D and shit like that. No 'real money' that might otherwise be spent on wages, R&D and shit like that will be removed from the system but instead a whole bunch of 'magic money' will provide all this medical care.
In this way it will cost the government, the companies, the employees and the nation quite literally nothing. It's amazing nobody ever thought of such a simple idea before.
Americans quite sensibly laugh when they say that the government will efficiently run something.
Americas problem is Lawyers, not Healthcare.
Tort Law reform should be any presidents #1 priority.
Is not Obama a sharp lawyer
because torts only account for a few percent cumulatively of the total healthcare costs
your Fox News talking point is bullshit
I just don't think you can pluck somebody from the obscurity of the state senate of Illinois and expect them to run the USA. Something similar might work for Kevin Kline in 'Dave' but it doesn't work in real life.
Erm, like Abraham Lincoln, you mean? Previous experience eight years in Illinois House of Representatives plus two years in the US House of Representatives, compared with Obama, seven years in the Illinois Senate plus four years in the US Senate.
"are the same sort of mistakes I reckon I would make if I were in his position"
?…..but you are typing this one fingered with your hand down the front of your pajamas killing time before signing on….
Trying to impose socialism on a country like America, will always end in fail. Americans unlike Brits do not buy into it at all.
Omaha was elected on lies, spin and huge amounts of foreign money. He is shaping up to be a one term President, expect the GOP to make massive gains in november and make him a lame duck thereafter also.
Agree. He'll lose the house and the senate. And it be the Tea Party Movement, who do it.
Theres a bridge wondering were you are
old crip should have been pensioned off long ago
You have to be kidding. McCain is as psychologically flawed as Brown and is now also senile. One of the reasons Obama won was because the opposoition (McCain / Palin) were so dreadful.
This is one I want to see here.
Yes, we miss George. It was very profitable for us to have a corrupt American president doing our bidding.
Poor old Fawkes has to look abroad to find political satire.
How else could it be with the Lib/Lab/Con ratpack nestling so cosily up each other's sphincters?
yawn very drole twat
David Miliband has been found guilty of covering up torture.
That counts as a war crime, doesn't it?
Covering up torture? That's my job.
Mud will not stick on this one, as with all the other stories relating to breaking the law or slush funds or not telling the truth because you are not under oath etc. etc. No doubt someone at number ten is looking at past papers to stick this one on the toryies somehow!
They will probably go with the one about the Conservatives supplying Iraq with the super gun.
Lots of ammo there, excuse the pun.
A war crime? only if it is other countries doing it. When it is us, it is merely enhanced interrogation.
This is not about torturing terrorists. This is about torturing people who have never seen the inside of a courtroom and in a clear majority of cases the person being tortured was entirely innocent of any connection with terrorism.
As for torturing terrorists, well, after they have been tried in a court of law and found upon the evidence to be terrorists, then hell, torture them to death, resuscitate them and then do it again, and again, and again. I am in favour of multiple death sentences.
Torturing innocent people is a high crime.
This does prove that Blair, Brown, Straw, Miliband….etc. all lied to the commons every time they said "we do NOT engage in, or condone, torture"
They clearly do! They should be tried in a court of law.
Did not the Met admit doing some such things recently? How is their trial for "high crimes" coming along?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't bankrupting your country and saddling us with eye-watering debt for years to come count as a high crime? If not, how about taking your country to war illegally and after lying to the people and Parliament? No? Then there is something seriously wrong with our system.
Soon it won't be Akmed we torture.take note Smiths and Jones
If i was American, i would be troubled by the fact that Palin is starting to make moves.
I'm no Obummer fan, but fuck me, Palin!
Creationist nut job #1. Thick as huskie shit. Bush is her fucking hero.
If she ever makes president – the States are going to hell, biblically.
Let me just look at what my handlers have written on my hand before I respond to that question.
Obviously the joke was too subtle for you bed-wetters. If Ali-G had written on his hand and given a speech after Bush had been shown to be nothing other than an auto-cue reader you'd all be laughing about how clever you are and how y'all got the joke. And oooh, aren't we terribly subtle and funny.
Palin pulls the same gag to lampoon Obama and it goes right over your fucking head.
Awww the twatty little NeoCon lurves the thick as pigshit redneck
she's a moron
but then so are you for actually trying to claim Palin was doing (or is capable of) satire when she hid her hand and it was only spotted by alert cameramen
outstanding arselicking fuckwittery from a NeoCon twat
And by 'Gotcha' you of course mean 'shit I sounded a complete twat there how can I pretend it was a joke??'
or even more eloquently to prove you aren't some fawning Palin apologist you wrote
'She's pretty, she's an all-American apple-pie mom and she shoots her own food.'
Sarah Palin the Moose hunting wingman for John McCain, subtle?
Oxymoron, no?
Fuck off you bed wetting, hand wringing shit fucker.
A reasoned argument. I'm persuaded.
BTW enuresis and electric blankets don't mix, or so I am reliably informed.
"BTW enuresis and electric blankets don't mix, or so I am reliably informed."
Why don't you try it and see what happens?
Bed wetter !!
Cos i don't like Palin's religion?
Get to church and then get to fuck.
Go and post on 'a tangled web' god boy.
Go and get your concrete ass pumped you thick twat.
You took away the 'speciality' from my special place.
Trolling for the 'baby jesus?' hahahaha……Prick!
you've just made a complete and utter tit of yourself as per fucking usual. go and sin no more you berk.
Fuck off Thieves !
Sadly, tat is no longer with us.
Creationist paleontology is my favourite. I bet that gets skated over quite quickly in creationist geology class.
George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln were no great fans of the theory of evolution by natural selection.
I can't fit all that on my hand.
Yeah, but they were highly intelligent weren't they, not learning everything by rote like today's generation?
Hmmmm. I bet that Jefferson et al did learn plenty of their basic knowledge by rote. It's as good a way as any to get your alphabet and your times tables on board. In fact I'd say it's the best way to get such simple building blocks on board. Excellent memory training too.
A method of course since tossed overboard as we go for the 'gestalt' approach where we simply go off wildly all over the shop and there is no structure or learning at all. Which is why we are forced to dumb down GCSE's into lots of bite-sized little 'exams' because the poor dears can't remember anything from morning till lunch. Because their memory is completely untrained.
I don't dispute that. The classical education is the best. They give you the basic building blocks to work with, but after that you get creative with what you've been given, not just go with current orthodoxies of whatever hue.
Too fucking stoned to remember.
The first two would never even heard of evolution, the third didn't make it clear precisely what he believed, but many claim he wasn't a "biblical truther"
However, none of those were rejecting (/ignoring) 150 years worth of biology, geology, astronomy and nuclear physics.
I wonder how she thinks oil got underground. Ah yes, He put it there. Bit of a bloody joker if you ask me.
Aye. You'd think the fucker would have just sat it in great big lakes where it would be easy to get at. Ideally in Nevada since it's fuck all use for growing anything.
errr … it sort of used to be like that in america, until they used it all up. (ie tar pits, oil not very deep underground).
Perhaps He's "Thor" – as the only place where He's put sensible people near large oil reserves is in Norway.
Fair enough, but there are many intelligent, well-meaning senior politicians today who believe that we are all going to die of heatstroke because cows fart. Meanwhile, Mr Ahmedinajad can runs rings round our Wetsern politician while presumably believing in creationism. Stupid is as stupid does.
No they don't, and no he doesn't.
One word in response.
If Pistol-packing Palin is really that bad and garnering support, how bad is Obamalamadingdong who's losing it?
It started here you know, ask Gordon!
well garnering support didn't do the northern dish washer much good did it titbrain
Shes really got to them ,go girllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll.
she did go
she Quit
because she's a big fat Quitter
FFS! BOTH democrats and republicans are whores to the SAME AGENDA!
One Biro mark in the hand is cheaper than a teleprompter, the crew of geeks to man it and the crew to teach Obamalamadingdong to read it.
For a speech without notes, watch Ronnie Reagan's at Omaha. Compulsory viewing for ALL politicians. Compulsory listening for ALL.
Lets have a whipround for a Blair poster
Busy rehearsing my lines for PMQ's
What a nightmare I had last night! You know the type either you're falling or crashing a car.
Well I was draeming that I was driving my Jap car and first the accelerator got stuck, then the breaks failed but worst of all, the airbag failed to go off.
That's the power of dreams.
That's not a dream Dave. That's the UK's economy.
I dream that we never hear from you again after May 6th troll.
In fairness that was one of the troll's better efforts.
Our countries problem is that there seems to be no brakes when politicians dream of power.
Yeeha. Yip, I miss dubya 'cos Ahm a usin' shot in mah dubbel barrul.
Vote for us. The Ganja party. we don't do fuckall.we mean to but we never get round to it,or we forget,what was I just saying.Oh yeah pass the spliff.whateva
What he meant to put was; SEE MY MITS?
It was supposed to be a hand cream commercial!
If they put a running total of the US national debt up there and see how it's speeding up they might want GWB back.
Oh and of course America will lose it's ability to put men into space, but hey why not let India, Iran and China do it, space is the sort of thing you leave for 1st world nations not 3rd world ones like the USA.
Then there is Barry trying to deal with Iran's nukes or should I say NOT dealing with Ira. Then Barry not backing up the reformers in Iran. then there is Barry arse licking every Muslim on the planet.
What does he mean 'Miss me yet?' Someone throwing shoes at him again?
As a neutral, I'd like to comment that Gordon Brown is a cynical nasty jocko Hunt that has fucked my pensio, prospects and whole fucking country. I hope the bastard dies a slow painful death.
They should put a poster like this outside all the golf courses Barry visits. So far he's spent more time on golf courses around the world than Dubbya did in his entire 8 years.
We miss him.
Hey, don't say I don't take care 'o you bitches.
Palin's hick daughter wasn't impregnated by Obama
Nah, we much prefer the negro pres – he cannot get enough of our stand off weapons.
Neither can our police forces.
Shut-up, you're not supposed to know that.
O/T, but here's a good example of the government's care when setting up children's websites…
"The name concerned was new and had not yet been promoted widely to young people."
The BBC don't count then
That is fucking awesome. Who says our evil overlords don't have a sense of humour?
President Bush, like President Reagan, was despised by the liberal left & the BBC.
They follow their model to destroy the credibility of US Presidnets in their own time, but cannot affect history panning out to show that they were in fact great Presidents.
Compare Bush to Clinton – I would much rather have the President Bush legacy in a heartbeat.
Lol…by the time one term Barry has finished his stint at the White House people will look back fondly at the Bush years.
Nobody misses Bush or Sarah Palin…the hockey mom yuk pass the bucket
Sarah Palin scares the shit out of bed-wetting Americans. She's pretty, she's an all-American apple-pie mom and she shoots her own food. Oh and she's a creationist.
But while they're laughing at her for being a creationist their very own choice of president, Barry Obama, has to pretend to believe in God (which is creationism by association) and be 'guided' by God – because if he doesn't he'll lose the votes of all them happy-clappy 'Oh Happy Day' black evangelicals for whom it is quite natural that God would want to speak to the president of America.
Can you imagine a Republican or Democratic presidential candidate campaigning and saying 'Fuck no – God doesn't guide me at all – in fact I think you're all nuts for believing in God'. The other guy would win by a landslide. Americans (Republican (Reagan) or Democrat – Jimmy Carter anybody?) don't want a president who doesn't have the ear of God. I mean if God isn't talking to this c*nt then that's good enough for me. How is he going to protect this great nation if God doesn't think he's worth talking to?
I want a president that God does talk to. Dagnammit.
It's all very well for liberal Americans to laugh at Palin's creationism but their very own choice is having to prostitute himself to the great sky fairy too just to get elected.
Palin had her own personal exorcist
she's THAT big a moron
she's in a class of her own for shit for brains stupidity
no surprise a fuckwit like you likes her
I like her 'cos she's a YUMMY MUMMY !
I'll second that.
she's actually pretty haggard underneath the industrial quanitities of slap and airbrushing. nearing 50 and very shrewish with a face like she constantly smells a fart
if that's the best you can do for fantasy women you must really be fucking desperate
I'd love to see Sarah Palin make a bid for high office again, just see lefties like you foam at the mouth, and of course for Michael Moore to have a fatal coronary.
I love Sarah Palin's comment at the Tea Party do
"A year later, I gotta ask the supporters of all that, 'How's that hopey, changey thing working out for ya?'"
and also she read that from scribled notes on the palm of her own hand because she has the brainpower of a small mollusc
"hopey changey" she really is a dumby fucky
no, no, no, no
that was DELIBERATE
it was all a cunning piece of satire
I'm certainly laughing
Tell me – how long have you had an irrational fear of strong & motivated high powered women?
Oh, haven't you heard? The first female president was supposed to be a Democrat. Just like the first female PM of the UK was supposed to be Labour.
Damn those right-wingers for not conforming to their stereotypes eh?
Thatcher was a Quitter was she ?
Or was she forced out by her loyal MPs ?
Fuck me New Statesman is following me on twitter
Funny what comes around huh, that's exactly what George said to his Texas Air National Guard officer in 1972
We are back and recruiting.
EPIC FAIL yet again
your hero is a cun't and everyone knows it
When was it established that Sarah Palin is a creationist? Really, show me your evidence.
As for Obama – he's never had to run anything but his mouth until now. He's discovered that Presidentin' is hard. Those grueling seven and eight hour days are taking their toll.
That some of you are boneheaded enough to think that Obama is somehow beneficial to you, or anything other than a shallow, brittle leftist idealogue of limited intelligence, is duly noted.

My Favorite Libertarian Charitable Deductions This Season 6:11 pm / 22 December 2012 by Less, at Anarchy Without Bombs
Having long ago reached the point of having more money than time to support the libertarian movement, I take great care in picking out organizations to support. Although I do make gifts to a wide variety of groups, some of which focus on only one or a few important issues (such as Antiwar.com and the Institute for Justice), and others which don't give me any tax deduction (such as the Center for a Stateless Society, Strike-The-Root, and The Voluntaryist), my largest contributions are monthly pledges to support 4 activities I consider essential to the future of liberty. Three of these activities occurred to me as a result of reading Malcolm Gladwell's THE TIPPING POINT: he identified every successful movement as requiring 3 types of people: Salesmen, Connectors, and Mavens.
(1) Advocates for Self Government is training the Salesmen. It has been number one on my list for years, because it is helping to develop what I consider most missing from our movement, people with the skills to persuade others to libertarianism. We have a great idea, but a serious lack of people with the ability to persuade non-libertarians. The late Marshall Fritz started this organization in the mid-1980s and Sharon Harris is doing a tremendous job of running it today. Its wonderful and free e-newsletter, the Liberator Online, is chock full of easy-to-absorb ideas and tips for promoting libertarianism (I use Harris' ONE MINUTE LIBERTY TIPS and Mary Ruwart's SHORT ANSWERS all the time), as is its website (start with the Libertarian Dozen), and it sponsors some great outreach tools, including the World's Smallest Political Quiz and Operation Politically Homeless. They spend my dollars very wisely and productively.
(2) Future of Freedom Foundation is my favorite Connector. In a movement filled with organizations that snipe at each other and refuse to work together, FFF sends out a daily email with links to many of the best articles written, drawing freely from all those organizations that hate each other. I only started donating recently when they hired Sheldon Richman as Vice-President: Sheldon is a great Maven, Connector, and Salesman all by himself, and as a long-time editor of the Freeman for an organization whose name I seem to have forgotten, drew many of the finest minds in the movement (including me) to write for him, as I'm sure he will now do for FFF and its monthly journal. If you don't have time to keep up with what everyone is writing about, just keep up at FFF and you should be just fine.
(3) Independent Institute is my favorite Maven. While there are plenty of fine libertarian organizations providing ongoing reporting of current events and commentary (in fact, Anthony Gregory's commentaries for II are among my favorites), the Independent Institute is doing scholarly work as well, including fine peer-reviewed studies and full length books on important topics. For example, John Goodman's PRICELESS is the most useful book on health care available for libertarians wanting to be informed and informative when talking to others. I could have chosen some of the fine organizations associated with George Mason University, also doing scholarly work, but I've found myself reading more II publications than those of any other organization when trying to advance my own understanding, and feel I owe the money to them.
(4) Students for Liberty is my final cornerstone. Sadly, most people harden quickly in their basic outlook on public policy, and if you don't reach someone before they're out of college, it gets extremely hard to reach them later. Notice how Ron Paul, the oldest of all candidates, had a base of support consisting primarily of young people, which is one reason he never had a chance with the establishment Republican Party. Now Ron Paul's people started an auxiliary for the young, but to be perfectly frank, I think the movement needs to go beyond identification with a single hero or leader: I want the young people themselves to lead. At SFL, they do: their blogs are active and intellectually stimulating, differences are discussed instead of buried, anarchy isn't a prohibited word and is thoughtfully debated, and optimism abounds, as it must for a movement such as ours to succeed. There are elements of maven (book publishing), connector (regional and even international conferences), and salesman (advice on speech and attire critical for young people trying to be taken seriously). I'm happy to include them in my big 4.
Let me add that, whenever possible, you should sign up for monthly pledges rather than giving large individual sums. All of these organizations are forced to spend unnecessary time contacting former donors for future donations, and monthly pledging saves them time and allows you to ignore their begging, knowing you are already an ongoing supporter. Plus, you don't feel as much of a pinch when your gifts are individually smaller. I know whereof I speak on this: trust me.
Happy Holidays: I hope my advice on cutting your income tax liability next year has been helpful.

Tamerlane: Sword of Islam, Conqueror of the World
Da Capo Press, 2007 - Biography & Autobiography - 449 pages
Tamerlane (1336-1405)-the tartar successor to Genghis Khan-ranks with Alexander the Great as one of the world's greatest conquerors. His armies were ferocious, feared throughout Asia, Africa, and Europe. They blazed through Asia like a firestorm, razing cities, torturing captives, and massacring enemies. Anyone who dared defy Tamerlane was likely decapitated, and towers of bloody heads soon became chilling monuments to his power throughout Central Asia. By the end of his life, Tamerlane had imposed his iron rule, as well as a refined culture, over a vast territory-from Syria to India, from Siberia to the Mediterranean. Justin Marozzi traveled in the footsteps of this infamous and enigmatic emperor of Samarkand (in modern Uzbekistan) to tell the story of this cruel, cultivated, and powerful warrior.

There are three great brands in the British cinema, each associated with a specific product line: Ealing comedies, Hammer horror films and Gainsborough melodramas.
The Ealing comedies, like Robert Hamer's "Kind Hearts and Coronets" (1949) and Alexander Mackendrick's "Man in the White Suit" (1951), have long been critical and popular favorites on both sides of the Atlantic.
The Hammer horrors, with their juiced-up, living-color reinterpretations of classic horror themes in Terence Fisher's "Curse of Frankenstein" (1957) and Freddie Francis' "Dracula Has Risen From the Grave" (1968), were resisted by the cultural gatekeepers but have found legions of fans.
The Gainsborough melodramas – a series of lurid bodice rippers, mostly derived from popular novels, that began during World War II and continued until the dissolution of the studio in 1949 – have largely been forgotten outside their home country and never enjoyed much in the way of critical support at home or abroad.
But for audiences battered by the day-to-day hardships of life during wartime and, later, the harsh deprivations of a hard-earned victory that ultimately didn't feel like one, the Gainsborough films provided escape and a symbolic resolution of social tensions. Seen today, they are tremendously entertaining: witty, perverse and gleefully malevolent.
A new boxed set from the Criterion Collection's no-frills Eclipse Series, "Three Wicked Melodramas From Gainsborough Pictures," offers a well-chosen sampling of the studio's output:
• Leslie Arliss' "The Man in Grey" (1943) set the pattern for the Gainsborough melodramas and made a star of the intense, insolent young James Mason.
• Arthur Crabtree's "Madonna of the Seven Moons" (1945) features Phyllis Calvert in a dual role.
• Arliss' "Wicked Lady" (1945) is perhaps the apotheosis of the Gainsborough style, with Margaret Lockwood as a 17th century adventuress who takes up highway robbery for fun and profit.
Lockwood is probably best known to U.S. audiences as the perky Englishwoman abroad in Alfred Hitchcock's "The Lady Vanishes" (1938), a Gainsborough production.
But with her dark beauty straight out of romantic fiction – raven-hued tresses and emerald-green eyes, or so the screenplays frequently assert – she became Gainsborough's resident bad girl, a role she establishes with absolute authority when, as the lowly born but ambitious Hesther Shaw, she sweeps into the Regency setting of "The Man in Grey" like a lowering thundercloud, ready to unleash her fury.

THOMPSON FALLS – The baby's mother, grandmother and a friend of the family told police they didn't believe Gunner Dye would ever do anything to hurt his 3-month-old son.
Dye himself said he would never harm Shane Gabriel-Leon Dye, and that the baby appeared to choke on food on April 16, when the infant was in Dye's care in Plains and he sought help from his girlfriend's mother – Shane's grandmother – next door.
But before Shane died two days later in a Missoula hospital, hospital officials told law enforcement Shane appeared to be a victim of shaken baby syndrome.
And when an autopsy was performed at the Montana State Crime Lab after the baby died, the manner of death was clear to the examiner.
It was listed as a homicide.
On Friday, Sheriff Tom Rummel said two Sanders County deputies were returning Dye, 21, to Montana from Sundance, Wyoming, to face the charge that he killed his infant son.
In court documents filed by Sanders County Attorney Bob Zimmerman, "The cause of death was determined to be craniocerebral and cervical trauma," and that nothing Dye told police officers "explains the autopsy findings."
Here's what Dye, and others, said happened on April 16.
Shane's mother, Rachel Ibarra, left for work at 3 p.m. Dye and the baby stopped in at her workplace later to say hi; Shane was in a stroller.
"She said everything appeared normal and that they left after a couple of minutes," a motion and affidavit filed by Zimmerman says.
A friend, Andre Levert, arrived at Dye and Ibarra's home between 5 and 6 p.m., and he, Dye and the baby went to another friend's house. Levert departed, but got a call from Dye at about 7:45 p.m. and returned to Dye's residence, where he and Dye played video games until about 9 or 9:30 p.m.
Levert "said that when he left Gunner was fixing a bottle for the baby and was going to go back to Rachel's place of employment with the baby," the documents state. "Gunner also mentioned that he was going to give the baby a bath. (Levert) said that while he was there the baby appeared fine and was smiley."
But at approximately 9:30 p.m. a Plains police officer responded to a medical emergency at the home.
When he arrived, the officer witnessed Karla Ibarra – Shane's grandmother who lived next door – performing maneuvers "consistent with first aid and CPR with the child."
The officer told Ibarra to continue while waiting for an ambulance crew to arrive, and spoke with Dye.
"Gunner Dye was crying and stated that he was feeding the baby and the baby acted like he choked on food," the document says.
The baby was rushed to Clark Fork Valley Hospital in Plains, and then transported to Community Medical Center in Missoula.
By 3 a.m. on April 17, hospital officials were informing Sanders County Dispatch they believed the 3-month-old was a victim of shaken baby syndrome.
Two Missoula County sheriff's deputies were dispatched to Community to interview Gunner Dye and Rachel Ibarra, who were both there with Shane.
"Gunner Dye told the officers that he had bathed the baby that evening, dried him and put a diaper and his clothes on him and then began feeding him a bottle with rice cereal and formula in it," the affidavit says. "He said about halfway through the bottle the baby started coughing and gagging and then its body went limp. He said the baby was gasping for air."
Dye told the deputies he "put on his pajamas and ran next door" to Karla Ibarra's residence, and 9-1-1 was called from there.
The young father denied shaking the 3-month-old, and added "they had even watched a video about it when the baby was born," according to the court filing.
"Rachel said that she does not think that Gunner would shake or hurt the baby," the documents say. "She said that the friend who visited that afternoon would not have hurt the baby and that he is reluctant to pick up the baby as (the baby) is delicate and (he) thinks he might hurt him."
Karla Ibarra, the grandmother, told officers "she had never witnessed anything that would lead her to believe that either parent would hurt the baby."
Asked about other ways Shane might have suffered his injuries, Dye said the baby's head did hit on the side of the bathtub while he was being bathed, "but it was like a little tap on the back of the head."
Rachel Iberra said two days earlier they had been riding in a car that went over potholes, causing Shane's head to move "side to side rapidly" but she had immediately grabbed his head to secure it.
The deputy state medical examiner who performed the autopsy wrote that "the exact timing of the injuries is uncertain; however, given the historical circumstances, the symptoms reported by the father most likely, without other available information, represent the time frame in which the injuries manifested, with the injuries occurring most likely immediately, or within a short time frame just before."
"The medical examiner believes that the death of the child was the result of an assault," Zimmerman wrote, and it is the medical examiner's opinion that "there is at least clear and convincing evidence that the manner of death is homicide."
The county attorney also filed a motion to delete the word "deliberately" in the homicide charge and add "purposely or knowingly," and to add that in the alternative Dye may be charged with forcible felony assault on a minor.
Shane Gabriel-Leon Dye was pronounced brain dead Friday, April 18, at 10:47 a.m., approximately 37 hours after medical help for the 3-month-old was summoned through 9-1-1.

Pigeons fly around the peace statue during a memorial service for victims of the 1945 atomic bombing, at Nagasaki Peace Park on August 9, 2014. - AFP PHOTO / JIJI PRESS
TOKYO, Aug 9, 2014 (AFP) - Tens of thousands marked the 69th anniversary of the US atomic bombing of Nagasaki on Saturday, as the city's pacifist mayor urged the Japanese government to listen to increasing concerns over controversial plans to expand the role of its military.
Crowds gathered to remember the more than 70,000 people who died in the initial blast or from after-effects in the months and years following the bombing, which hit Nagasaki at 11:02 am local time (0202 GMT).
Bells tolled as ageing survivors, relatives, government officials and foreign delegates observed a moment of silence at the time of detonation that turned the Japanese city into a ball of flames.
The ceremony, attended by Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and US ambassador to Japan Caroline Kennedy, went ahead despite a powerful typhoon churning towards the region whipping up strong winds.
"I would like to act as a storyteller," Yasuhiko Yuge, a 74-year-old survivor of the bombing said. "Young people have interest but their opportunities to know about the history of the bombing are limited," Yuge was quoted as saying by Jiji Press.
Another survivor, aged 71, told Jiji: "Peace has become common and the number of stories of survivors has declined. I think we can understand each other by placing importance on peace."
In a speech at the ceremony, Nagasaki Mayor Tomihisa Taue called for a nuclear-free world and underlined concerns about the government's decision last month to allow its military to go into battle in defence of allies.
Tokyo's move to invoke the right to exercise so-called "collective self-defence" came despite widespread public opposition and fears among people in neighbouring China and South Korea, which regularly accuse Japan of failing to atone for its aggressive wartime actions.
"The oath prescribed in the Japanese Constitution that Japan shall renounce war is the founding principle for postwar Japan and Nagasaki," Taue said.
"However, the rushed debate over collective self-defence has given rise to the concern that this principle is wavering," the mayor said.
"I urgently request that the Japanese government take serious heed of these distressed voices," he said.
The ceremony was held near the spot where the US military dropped a plutonium bomb nicknamed "Fat Man" on August 9, 1945. Japan surrendered six days later, ending World War II.
The bombing of Nagasaki came three days after the first-ever atomic blast at Hiroshima, which claimed 140,000 lives.
Opinion remains divided over whether the twin attacks were justified. While some historians say it prevented many more casualties in a planned land invasion, critics have said the attacks were not necessary to end the war, arguing that Japan was anyway heading for imminent defeat.
Washington, which has been a close ally of Tokyo since the war, has never officially apologised for the bombings, however, leaked diplomatic cables from 2009 suggested that the Japanese government had rebuffed the idea of a US apology and a visit to Hiroshima by President Barack Obama.

Ok, this isn't going very well. My life is still very, very busy and squeezing zombie training into it is much more difficult that it was last semester. An hour on the treadmill and some weight training yesterday was great, but it was the first time that had happened in a couple of weeks.
Sigh. Back to work. Hope to get to the gym today and start getting back into the habit.
Pole dancing is hard, and it kind of hurts. My experience of pole dance teachers, and I've known three, is that they all have trouble with the concept that I might not be capable of some moves, even with lots of practice. My pet theory is that when you've been a beautiful women in this society all your life,* you develop an inflated sense of what is possible. Of the pole teachers I have, only one seems to have fully cognizent that I am a 200+ pound person and that is a lot to lift. I know with time I will develop arm strength, but I don't think it is rational to assume that I will develop anything like that anytime soon.
I'm working on the arm strength, which, as someone else pointed out, will come in handy for holding AK-47s when the Zombie Apocalypse comes.
No pole or yoga or anything tonight as I'm working late. I did an hour on the elliptical this morning, which was fine, though using the elliptical gives me a sense of mission creep as I'm not the ""Zombie Out-fitness-machine-r." But I'm told that using it for awhile will really help me get my strength built up for running. So that's good.
*And I'm attractive enough, just not the "Hey, look at her," type. Pole Dance teachers tend to be.
First came the holidays. Then came the illness. I went to a science fiction convention in Boston and caught this illness that was like ebola or something. It was awful, y'all. At one point I was so sick I couldn't even talk.
That one is huge for me.
So yeah, i slacked on the exercising for weeks and I gained a bunch of weight back. Not a bunch, but enough that I feel like I'm starting over. So that's my excitement.
Today I did some elliptical trainer. (My yoga instructor insists it is better than the treadmill, so I've decided to do an hour of elliptical every day and switch off running on the treadmill and weight training.)
Tonight, I have pole dance. Always, I have law work.
So anyway, that's my excitement.
Yeah, I haven't updated in awhile, which is both bogus and sad. I've done a decent job keeping up with my running and my other stuff, though. My husband is serious about Yoga, so serious that I think he could call himself a "yoga practitioner" without sounding like an asshole. His studio has been closed for the week so he's been coming to my gym, which has resulted in a little more "couple time" than was really my goal. I think we will both be glad when his studio opens up again because we're both introverted types and have had trouble with the additional together time. That said, I've learned some yoga and he's done some cardio, so expansion of options is always good.
The weight has plateaued a bit, but I've been eating like a rabid wolverine over the holidays, so that's not a huge shock.
Anyway, things I've discovered in my sabbatical from Sparkpeople:
1. When your exercise a lot but eat whatever you want, you don't lose much weight but you feel fabulous.
2. Pole dancing is really, really fun. If you're in the DC area, go to Jordin's Paradise (http://jordinsparadise.com/) because the other pole dancing studio in town is really sketchy.* If you go to Jordin's, I'm the fat chick wearing all black.
3. I joined the friendliest gym I could find and have been there just about every day. One thing i love about gyms is that even if you're a fat, awkward chick, the gym rats still respect anybody who shows up every day.
4. Kickboxing is awesome but it is hard to find a good class in it. My gym has a bag, so I've been teaching myself from an Ipad app.
5. If your "personal trainer" that the gym assigns you for the first week who has a marketing degree wants to keep making annoying small talk about you, ask her questions about diet and exercise. Like anybody else, personal trainers love to talk about what they know about and it will minimize the "Wow, law school sounds hard. Are you worried about the bar?" conversations that nobody wants to have. And hey, I've learned some stuff about diet and exercise.
6. I was out with a fashion-focused friend and mentioned that I was having trouble finding workout clothes in my size. She said "Well, you know that shirt you're wearing is too big for you." Why, so it was. Old Navy has gotten a lot of my business in the last few days as I transition from XXL to XL. I am obsessed with Old Navy and its wonderful, wonderful vanity sizing. I'm a size 14 in their jeans. Intellectually I'm aware that this is stupid and I'm no where near a 14 by any rational sizing system, but it makes me happy.
So that's me. Between gyms being closed and holiday stuff getting in the way of me getting to one and the fact that I'm not a very good runner, I'm on like my third week of week five of C25k, but I'm cool with that. I'm not so committed to outdoor running that I have any particular desire to do it outside when it is cold and the weather will be uncomfortable here for a few months. If the Zombies come in February, I will have to run in the cold, but I see no reason to start now when treadmills have that handy "incline" button. I look forward to being able to run faster, but I'm sure that will happen with practice.
Pilates class at the gym today and, of course, running. I think there's a "Without a Trace" marathon on, though if there isn't I will keep watching "the Wire in the Blood" on netflix. Then I shall go to a New Year's Eve Party and eat like a rabid wolverine.

*Pro tip for other studio: When even your advertising photos for your studio show people waiting in line to use the poles during class, that's not a good thing. At my studio, they emphasize small classes and the instructors actually notice and tell you if your form is wrong.
I didn't run for four freaking days from Thursday through Sunday and I ate like a maniac, so I'm doing some damage control. I've walked/run like 12 miles in the last two days, so that's good, but I'm still feeling more out of shape than I was. I've been hanging out on week four of C25k for two and a half weeks and am going to week five tomorrow because I'm starting to think I'm only hanging out at week four for so long because I'm a big scaredy cat.
Also, I'm really bad at measuring my portions of Thai food and I've eaten a lot of Thai food recently.
And I have a blister.
Whine, whine, whine.
