Re:It always sells as a health benefiting technolo (52 comments)
I'm not sure it's prudent to wait on the primary beneficiary of a poor educational system to overhaul that system.
A good education can be had by researching online, but the value of this is regularly naysaid by internet trolls. Counterintuitively, the public seem to put much stock in their opinion of it. The result is that "everyone knows" information cannot be trusted, simply because it can be found predominantly online.
Re:It always sells as a health benefiting technolo (52 comments)
That occurred to me as well.
Perhaps people will get their governments under control, so that the People decide what gets researched... and the government must settle for the scraps.
Re:Deadlines don't change (670 comments)
You're quite correct.
And when someone who's sick goes into work anyway, and transmits their cold and flu to others who then need to take sick days, the deadlines of those other employees don't change either.
The viral recipient employees appreciate that fact very easily. It's a wonder that the viral originators, not to mention the employers, don't.
It's such an antisocial workplace statement to make. "I'm not rearranging my work schedule because I'm sick - five of the rest of you guys can rearrange yours because I'm sick. Enjoy." That this unspoken statement doesn't make it onto many peoples' radars appears to be a testament to how many people don't have their moral compass active on a consistent basis.
Re:Marketing Hurdle of the Century (82 comments)
Just give it a brand name. Heck, it worked for Twinkies and some people even ate those.
Ocean Silk could work quite well, though it would probably have a more dissociative name - Rymplon, for example.
Re:Counterintuitive (289 comments)
Wasn't aware that I did.
Stereotypes don't shift due to facts. They shift due to perceptions. Trolls and other internet shills have been relying on that for decades.
Counterintuitive (289 comments)
I wonder what having techie types with superior firepower as the societal norm will do to the prevalent stereotype.
Hmm... (180 comments)
If I had access to confidential police records, including undercover cops, and wanted to sell it, I might arrange a distribution method such as this.
It's a good thing that nobody with significant amounts of money has an interest in determining the identities of undercover cops.
Wait for it... (25 comments)
So, next is checking into 4Square from your Minecraft bunker.
Re:Sen. Leahy's ReWrite (403 comments)

Re:Reality (403 comments)
The underlying enabling fallacy the public has accepted here is that their political representatives have the lawful authority to do anything within their office that does not contravene the laws - and of course, they write the laws.
This deviates from the structure of American government as established, in two ways. In office, the authority of said political representatives must derive from the People. What powers and authorities the People did not vest in the federal government remain with the People, or with the states respectively.
Secondly, politicians do not make law anymore. The draft and enact legislation ("legis", legal), and this term refers to the paperwork and bureaucratic process only. Legislation and legal refer to that which has the form and appearance of law, without necessarily having the substance. Was everything dated correctly? Submitted to the correct parties? Turned in on time? Did it receive the proper number of Yea votes? Great, it's legal. But in order to be law as well, it must have the proper derivation of authority - and that must come from the People. Just as governments cannot give anyone money that they have not taken from someone else, so also can they not exercise powers, authorities and privileges that were not vested in them by the People. By default, rights belong to the People. This is the purpose of founding documents: To specifically allocate powers and authorities to governments, and to define their nature and limitations.
By contrast, the vast majority of what American politicians do today is analogous to malware. And like malware, it successfully evades detection because the People, by and large, have not updated their detection algorithms in a very long time.
As the political malware increasingly bogs down the system's runtime, the People have begun to do so. The results will be easy to extrapolate from the computer analogy.
Re:What? (878 comments)
The estimation by non-users that drug use produces a sudden, drastic and permanent brain deterioration in the users seems to have been unrealistically amplified by society, in my experience.
The estimation can cause non-users to discredit the assessments of users on general principle, which of course leaves their assessments the only valid ones remaining - for them, anyway. The article's question isn't likely to be resolvable within a context like that, because the typical result is just marked social division between users and non-users. I suppose the two social factions will just have to resign themselves to arguing the matter with no possible chance of resolution.
That estimation also produces other resultants, too: A societal justification for keeping most drugs on the black market, with all the private and government programs that drug money is used to fund. And for users, it keeps them reliant on a distribution network, at the prices they set, and limits both their quality assurance and selection of substances. Additionally, it should be noted that if you're a major drug distribution network with a lot of the say about what specific types of drugs become readily available within a country, you have the ability to partially shape the mindset, mood, energy level and attitude of a given generation.
The ability to influence that can be intensely useful for, say, politicians.
With all that potential incentive attached to it, that common estimation is beginning to seem less and less innocuous and naturally-occurring. When that estimation rubs off from "society", where - specifically - do people get it from? Ah, that's right. It's the slant on medical research data of prolonged, hard use of certain drugs, provided to us at an early age by government-controlled public schools and government-funded anti-drug campaigns in the media.
But it's not as if there could be a hidden agenda at work there.
Re:Oh, Google is fine with anonymity... (188 comments)
Short answer: "It's a risk to give access to your identifying information to people on the internet. Unless it's us."
Re:One question (238 comments)
So the geeks would be the early adopters, and everyone else would probably wait until Facebook inevitably turned the thumbscrews on the users enough for them to become dissatisfied.
Re:One question (238 comments)
Sure, the geeky masses. WordStar. Spreadsheets. In other words, business needs at home and in the small offices.
For personal use, the geek stigma was only overcome once people found they could play decent computer games.
Re:One question (238 comments)
Thirty years ago, the idea that non-geeks would ever start using computers themselves seemed absurd.
Forty years ago, the idea that people - rather than corporations and governments - would use computers themselves seemed absurd.
Re:Solution (847 comments)
For that matter, I wonder how much Assange's appearance itself can be altered.
Suppose the embassy were to play host to a convention with a large number of people?
Re:Why bother? (847 comments)
On the nose.
I'm amazed the British government is making such a PR debacle of this by pursuing it so publicly. Surely Assange would be scheduled for a heart attack in a year or two instead, and leave it at that?
Solution (847 comments)
Ecuadorean diplomats should now regularly ship moving crates, boxes, novelty oversized cakes and so forth out of the embassy on a daily basis.
Re:We shouldn't ban 'things' but uses (380 comments)
You unintentionally expose a great proof for the concept that enabling us to exercise freedom is not the agenda of this kind of legislation.
Banning ownership of specific 'things' is enforceable across the board, which is the appeal. Even though it overreaches into legitimate uses, politicians haven't been finding that a concern. But they should. We never gave them the authority to pass legislation which encroaches upon our rights. However, this now happens routinely today.
Now if only there were some cryptic clue as to their actual agenda. Because it certainly isn't upholding our rights.

Download here: http://crystaldew.info/category/software/crystaldiskmark
CrystalDiskMark is a disk benchmark software that allows us to benchmark 4K and 4K queue depths with accuracy.
Key Features:-
* Sequential reads/writes
* Random 4KB/512KB reads/writes
* Text copy
* Change dialog design
* internationalization (i18n)
Note: Crystal Disk Mark 3.0 Technical Preview was used for these tests since it offers the ability to measure native command queuing at 4 and 32.
Looking at 4K performance from the throughput side, Vertex 450 256GB manages just over 25MB/s. The drive scales well in this test and again lags just behind Vector.
The single queue depth 4K write is just behind the Vector, but there isn't anything else on the chart that can beat the Vertex 450 256GB at this task. The QD4 test is nearly as fast as the Seagate 600 SSD's QD32 result.

Dish should provide the guide data for all OTA channels a customer receives. I don't care how they do it, what technical hurdles they face, how high on the priority list this is, or whether they are in a contract dispute or not. Dish's implementation of OTA is poor, and could be improved.
Understand that OTA support is not a priority for Dish. Dish is a satellite company... They would much rather not support OTA at all... but it fills a gap for them and serves as a carrot... but when push comes to shove, the reality is Dish would be just as happy if you used other means to view OTA.

EBU Demos RadioDNS at EuroRadio
Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Spain - May 2, 2013 - The EuroRadio Assembly was held in Tenerife Spain, hosted by Radio Nacional de Espana. The EBU Technology and Innovation department was on-hand, demonstrating the RadioDNS hybrid radio system. The demonstration included RadioVIS and RadioTAG.
EBU Technology and Innovation has created a set of tools for broadcasters to launch hybrid radio services, whether they are on FM or DAB/DAB+. An online platform is available, where broadcasters can register their station and define simple visualization. This service is free but, for now, experimental. It is important that broadcasters activate hybrid radio for their station to break the chicken-and-egg situation and help bring more receivers to the market.

The ancient Greeks said that rosemary was good for the brain – a theory that persisted through the centuries (so we find Ophelia presenting it to Hamlet 'for remembrance').
Be that as it may, the Italians love its strong spicy flavour in the kitchen and make no excuses for using it. The French are more subtle with it, but there are many countries that hardly use it at all. There are those who say that rosemary can be unpleasant if it gets stuck between the teeth – but this doesn't happen if the needle-like leaves are stripped from their stems and then chopped before using.
It has a strong affinity with both pork and lamb and can be chopped and sprinkled over joints and chops before baking (you'll find you can make a lovely rosemary-flavoured sauce with the juices left in the tin with some stock and a little wine).
Rosemary grows very easily into a sturdy bush and can be used fresh all through the winter. Dried rosemary is all right, but I would recommend that it be chopped as finely as possible since it's much more spiky when dried.
Winter Vegetable Pie with a Parmesan Crust
Filled with wintry root veg and a cheesy sauce, with a parmesan pastry, this pie is a real treat! Replace the lard with vegetable fat if making this for vegetarians.
Shoulder of Lamb stuffed with Rice and Olives
If you're watching the pennies, shoulder of lamb is much more inexpensive than a leg joint or other cuts. Turn it into something really special with this flavoursome stuffing of rice, olives, onions and herbs.
Autumn Lamb Braised in Beaujolais
You could make this at any time of the year, but in Delia's view autumn lamb gives the most flavourful results. Serve it with plenty of mashed potato and root veg.
All-in-One Baked Vegetables
Who says cooking is difficult? This quick recipe is a great way of cooking several veggies at once - and roasting them retains all the flavour and nutritional value. Wonderful with the Sunday roast!
Poached Pheasant with Celery
Pheasant and celery have long been culinary bedfellows and in this beautiful recipe they are joined by light stock, herbs and a creamy sauce, allowing you to make the most of the game season with a very English dish.

text: | Dáil Éireann - Volume 602 - 11 May, 2005 Written Answers. - Economic Partnership Agreements. Ms O. Mitchell Ms O. Mitchell 204. Ms O. Mitchell asked the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment if he shares the concerns and reservation expressed by the UK Government in respect of economic partnership agreements; and if the Government intends to seek to negotiate changes to the EU position on EPAs. [15597/05] Mr. Ahern Mr. Ahern Mr. Ahern: I have read with interest the recent position paper that sets out the UK view on how best the commitment to put development at the heart of the EPA negotiations can be best delivered. I would agree with the basic thrust of an approach to the EPAs which ensures that the needs and concerns of developing countries are taken adequately into consideration during the substantive phase of these negotiations. I note in particular that, more recently, in the context of the further progression of EPA negotiations, Commissioner Mandelson has indicated that he is putting the EPA process under continuing review, with a new review mechanism to ensure that at every stage in the negotiations the development dimension is put first. I fully support this approach by the commissioner. As trade is a European Community competence, it is the European Commission which conducts the negotiations on the EPAs between the EU and six regional groupings of ACP states on behalf of the member states. The Commission provides the Council with regular updates on the progress of the negotiations. Ireland is satisfied that the Commission is discharging its mandate in accordance with the provisions of the Cotonou Agreement and in a manner which is sensitive to the particular concerns of the ACP states. Ireland is actively following the developments in the EPA negotiations process and will continue to do so. In so far as the discussions within the EU Council, including the Article 133 Committee, are concerned, Ireland will have full regard to the content of the UK paper. In all of these discussions, we will be insisting that the Commission discharge its mandate in accordance with the provisions of the Cotonou Agreement and in a manner which is sensitive to the particular concerns of ACP States.

They bones quiver, heard some clown throwing stones at us
from TDE (Ft. Ab-Soul, Isaiah Rashad, Jay Rock, Kendrick Lamar & ScHoolboy Q) – BET Cypher 2013 Lyrics on Genius
A reference to the popular idiom "Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me"
All Jay Rock is doing, is rapping. Despite his lines and verses just being words, and can't physically hurt anyone, other rappers are terrified of being targeted by Jay Rock, and they tremble in fear ("bones quiver"). So they attempt pre-emptive strikes by physical means simply out of fear that he may target them.
Jay Rock claims he "heard" these attempts, so they never actually hit him.

Pakistan Awaits Boxing Championships
September 22, 2011 by TMO · Leave a Comment
Compiled by Parvez Fatteh, Founder of http://sportingummah.com, email@example.com
The Pakistani national boxing team, led by Haroon Khan, younger brother of junior welterweight champion of the world Amir Khan, has trained and is ready to take part in the World Boxing Championships scheduled to be held from September 25th through October 8th in Baku, Azerbaijan.
Three Pakistani boxers and three officials will depart from the country's southern port city of Karachi for Azerbaijan on Thursday. Secretary of the Pakistan Boxing Federation (PBF), Akram Khan indicated that Haroon Khan would directly reach Baku from London to join the Pakistani team.
The younger Khan will compete in the 52kg category, Mohammad Waseem in the 49kg category, Syed Mohammad Hussain in the 56kg category and Aamir Khan in the 64kg category. The boxers who qualify for the quarterfinals of this event will qualify for the 2012 London Olympics. The PBF secretary expressed optimism that the four national boxers would get at least a couple of berths in 2012 London Olympics by performing well in the world event.
None of Pakistan's boxers were able to qualify for the Beijing Olympics in 2008. Prior to that, Pakistan had five fighters – Mehrullah Lassi, Sohail Baloch, Asghar Ali Shah, Faisal Karim and Ahmed Ali Khan- competing in the 2004 Athens Olympics, but none advanced beyond the second round of the competition.
Pakistan won their only Olympic medal in boxing at the 1988 Olympics in Seoul when Syed Hussain Shah brought home the bronze medal in the men's middleweight division. The 2012 Summer Games in London present a great opportunity for Haroon Khan to win a medal for the country of his heritage, Pakistan, and to shine in front of his adopted country, England.
Aamir Khan Adds Gandhian Touch To His Campaign In Gujarat
December 24, 2009 by TMO · Leave a Comment
By Nilofar Suhrawardy, MMNS India Correspondent
NEW DELHI/MUMBAI: Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan has certainly taken a lead over politicians where his publicity campaign for his latest movie, "3 Idiots" is concerned. He has literally gone to the people, mingled with them and then surprised them by revealing his real identity. The silent message sent by this style of campaigning cannot be missed. The message stands out by the actor giving minimal importance to religious, regional as well as other socio-economic differences which are in contrast highlighted prominently by politicians when they try reaching out to the common people for their votes. This does not imply that the star has seldom given importance to communal tactics of Indian politicians. In fact, he earned a strong criticism in several quarters for having earlier criticized Chief Minister Narendra Modi for Gujarat carnage and supporting the Narmada Bachao Andolan (movement). Soon after Aamir criticized Modi in 2006, activists supporting Modi started persuading theater owners in Gujarat not to release his movies- "Fanaa" and "Taare Zameen Par." They also demanded an apology from Aamir for his "anti-Gujarat" stand on NBA and his "anti-Narendra Modi" remarks. The actor had since stopped visiting Gujarat and had also refused to change his opinion on the two issues- NBA and Gujarat-carnage.
To a question on his stand, Aamir had said: "I had said that people killed in Godhra and its aftermath were not Hindus or Muslims for me. They were Indians, and whoever was responsible for the carnage was anti-Indian and anti-national. If that was the reason for this (ban on his movies), so be it." On the financial losses that the ban spelt, accepting that they would be "huge," he said: "And what about people losing their land and houses? I think that is a far bigger, deeper issue." When questioned on whether he would apologize for his stand, he replied: "What should I apologize for? What wrong have I done? I am happy and proud of what I did."
Against this backdrop, the nature of Aamir's recent visit to Gujarat, the first since he faced the backlash, stands out. The actor apparently deliberately selected Lok Niketan Vinay Mandir, a small school in Palanpur village, about 135 km from Ahmedabad in Banaskantha district. The school is run on Gandhian principles, where the students weave their own khadi uniform. Wearing a black T-shirt and jeans, the actor entered the school at around noon last Thursday (December 17). Initially, nobody recognized him, but when they did, the teachers and students were pleasantly surprised. After a discussion with the school principal, Aamir interacted with students from class seventh to tenth. He heard a student sing a song, talked to students about their dreams, played cricket with them and also shared food from a girl's lunch box, cooked by her grandmother. When a student showed Aamir, the star's photo that he kept in his pocket, he picked him up and kissed him. He gifted the school two golden rings, two cricket balls, six tennis balls, one volley ball, two footballs and four tickets of the film premier with air tickets. The school felicitated him with a khadi garland.
Earlier, when questioned on his plans against his ban of his movies in Gujarat, Aamir had replied: "There are many avenues I could take recourse to. There is the legal option, I could seek help from the film industry and the various film associations, but on this issue I want the people to decide. The people should decide if this is the kind of political party they want." Criticizing the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for using "brute force," with "no value for human life," he had said: "In life, nothing is in our control. The maximum we can do is to do what we believe is right. I strongly believe that each one of us has to fulfill our karma, to do what he or she feels is right. The BJP should do what it feels is right, the people of Gujarat and India should do what they feel is right."
Undeniably, Aamir's visit to Lok Niketan school was a part of his two-week nation-wide campaign to promote his movie. Among the other places, the actor has suddenly turned up at, include Kolkata (West Bengal), Jaipur (Rajasthan), a remote village in Madhya Pradesh, Varanasi (Uttar Pradesh) and an unknown village near Faridkot in Punjab. The subtle message conveyed by his deliberately including a Gujarati-school run on Gandhian principles cannot be missed. He still remains hopeful and optimistic that secularism and Gandhian principles cannot be easily defeated even by communal atrocities, such as the Gujarat-carnage. While at the school, Aamir said that he wanted to "try and imbibe Gandhian values." This was apparently his style of making people aware about the importance of Gandhian principles. A visit to the small school was not binding on the star. If he wished, he could have stayed out of Gujarat even now. But he did not. Rather, as is evident, he planned his Gujarat-visit to let the school run on Gandhian principles hit the headlines and gain substantial media coverage. The move has given his old critics (Modi-supporters) virtually no time or even reason to question his "campaign."

2014 Lamborghini Gallardo LP 570-4 Squadra Corse: Lighten up, Lambo!
When you lust after something as exotic as the Lamborghini Sesto Elemento, but just aren't able to spend millions on a hypercar, then I guess you'll just have to settle for something as mundane as a Gallardo.
The Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Squadra Corse is almost identical to the LP 570-4 Super Trofeo, a single-series race car, but it is street legal. Just like the Super Trofeo, the Squadra Corse shares components with the Gallardo Superleggera.
Its 570 hp V10 engine is complemented with a carbon fiber rear wing and removable hood. Thanks to the ample use of this lightweight material, the Squadra Corse weighs 154 lbs less than the LP 560-4.
Interior components have been made from lightweight materials as well including an ample helping of lush Alcantara and more carbon fiber.
Getting to 60 mph takes only 3.4 seconds, and you will hit 124 mph in 10.4 seconds. Its top speed is 199 mph, which should be plenty, especially for a car you can take off of the track.

The Voluntary Town Guides provide walking tours that show and explain the town to thousands of people each year.
The most popular walking tour is the Historical Tour of the town. This includes a brief history from the earliest times with visits to the Abbot's Hospital, St Mary's Church, the Undercroft and the Castle grounds. In addition to the Historic Walking Tour, the Guides offer other walking tours on Medieval Guildford, Hidden Guildford, The River Wey and Lewis Carroll.
If you have any enquiries or wish to book a walk for a group we charge £3 per head, (there is no charge for schools), please contact us through the Tourist Information Centre in Guildford.
Much of the money we raise we then give to charity, because we are all volunteers.

We purchased the tree at Lowes about 3 months ago. It was about 4' tall and a little less that an 1" on the truck. We planted it and it seemed to adopting to its new environment.
The tree was planted with the top of the root ball at the surface of the ground with a little dike around the tree on three sides to collect the water coming down the slope. There is additional slope below the tree, or it is about 3.5 feet above the bottom of the slope. The hole was about twice the diameter of the root ball. The slope is modest, and drains about 400 square feet. The soil is clay and quartz, but seems to drain well and perk. There is a large newly planted oak about 30' away and about 4' above the cherry. It was purchased as a 12 to 14' tree and was planted last October. It is growing well. We planted a forsythia at the same time as the Cherry about 5 feet from the Cherry. The forsythia is doing fine, and growing. About three weeks ago, the leaves of the Cherry look wilted hanging down like they are not getting enough water. I immediately watered it. Today we looked at the tree and some of the leaves are looking yellow. There is no damage to the trunk or branches We have been getting decent rain, about 0.5" every 3 to 4 days. Two days ago we got about an inch. If the rains don't come within that period I have been watering them with about twice the volume of the original root ball. Can any one tell me what I am doing wrong. |
Follow-Up Postings:
It sounds like you are OVER watering them. Let them just begin to dry out (I mean dry, not moist) and then give em a deep watering if you don't get rain. The watering is not so much a schedule, more like an acquired skill uniquely adapted to your yard and sometimes several different places in your yard. As for how it will respond after the stress already, coin flip. John |
I also suspect you're killing it with kindness. It's getting an inch a week from rain without supplemental watering. If you can inspect the soil immediately around your tree to some depth and it's moist you probably don't need to water it. |

Beside a history of few cases being paid on this 'second recon', the best potentional DDS review cass are where there is new medical evidence rather than a hope of something being found by further DDS developement.
A large problem is the conflicting goal of wanting a quick DDS turnaround time and the time it takes to get more medical evidence.
Also, tends to duplicate the existing Senior Attorney review program and diverts cases that are alread on the edge of being paid OTR at the hearing level.
There are surplus DDS resources sitting idle for this added program?
Re-recon strikes again. . . .
Another aspect of the "process" that such projects overllok is the fact that district offcie employess doehave the option to refer such cases back to the state agency for re-opening. The POMS procedures are clear and simple, but under utilized.

UPPER JAY — The idea for a public park here washed away with Irene.
Once home to the Land of Make Believe theme park, the 3.5-acre stretch of riverfront that curled around the Ausable River was meant to become a tribute to its creator and legendary craftsman Arto Monaco.
Designs for the proposed walking park, drawn in March 2011, included stunning features, remnants of the artist's work with heritage markers and features celebrating his life and talent.
The historic, two-story children's fairytale castle stood largely intact until Irene slammed the region. The castle had been a central draw to the children's play park, a local attraction here from 1954 until 1979. But flooding damaged the structure beyond repair.
On Aug. 28, 2011, Irene also washed away much of the theme park's land, which the Arto Monaco Historical Society had purchased with a vision to reclaim and give to the Town of Jay as Make Believe Park.
"Before Irene, we had been feeling very optimistic," Historical Society President Anne Mackinnon said. "We purchased much of Arto's work from the family estate, and some of the collection was accepted into the Strong National Museum of Play in Rochester and the Adirondack Museum in Blue Mountain Lake."
Museum pieces were conveyed before the storm and are safely ensconced amid archives.
Preserved to history, Mackinnon said, are most of Monaco's draft design drawings, the child-sized stagecoach and Make Believe cars and many sets of the wooden toys he made at Monaco Toy Factory, across the road from the Land of Make Believe.
"Then we had begun looking to create the park. We were doing really well with raising money," Mackinnon said in an interview nearly a year after Irene.
"But floodwater inundated the storage building. When we opened it, we found there were still some nice pieces left, so we went in and got those out and stored them someplace safe.
"But what we realized was that it just wasn't viable for the town to think about taking the park. They were already concerned, before Irene, about having enough resources to support it."
And the Historical Society could not sustain recovery costs.
"We just realized that the effort was going to be too much for us," Mackinnon said.
"Cleaning it up would be too difficult, costing hundreds of thousands of dollars. Now, surprisingly, a couple of people have approached us about buying and using the land for agricultural purposes. There is one potential buyer with means and equipment for cleaning up the property.
"We are encouraged that people have an alternative vision for a use of the land that could be a very, very good thing."
Arto Monaco's wife, Gladys, was forced to relocate from her home on the Land of Make Believe site in hasty evacuation as water from the Ausable River rose last August.
She lived with a sister-in-law in Saranac Lake a short time before being resettled at Will Rogers Institute.
Mrs. Monaco died Oct. 16, 2011. She was 100 years old.

Bush and Cheney masterminded the 911 attacks What is it that makes some people spout such garbage as if they have some secret source of information that noone else has. Perhaps they see it as their business to save the world. I really think they suffer from some kind of psychosis and need to have themselves looked after.
Remember the horrible youth camp killings last July in Norway? While the Norwegians declared the killer as a loner, one poster here saw it as her business to warn us of a global Catholic conspiracy to kill Norwegian children. The same Canadian poster tried to sully the integrity of our troops when she declared "US troops are guarding the pipeline in Afghanistan". When caught with her pants down she wiggled and squirmed but couldn't own up to her mistake. That's why I call this malady a psychosis. I explained that the Soviets left Afghanistan a wasteland. The Taliban never had a central government and were too unstable. The multiple agreements that were signed never bore fruit afterall who would back a multi-billion dollar project in such an risky location? The link states that the proposed TAPI pipeline continues to be threatened because of the recent killing of Afghan civilians. Isn't a left wing conspiracy nut cut from the same cloth as a right wing conspiracy nut? |
Here is a link that might be useful: TAPI pipeline put on hold again
Follow-Up Postings:
You're absolutely wrong!!!!!.......................she's not really Canadian. Kiddin' |
Huh? Who is she? If you have something to say, then have the guts to say it.... |

There was a rightwing racist pig thread so now there just has to be a left wing consirpiracy nut thread... coz everything exist here in left and right and dat makes it all even stevens... |
....so a Leftwing racist pig Canadian conspiracy nut put the Tapi Pipeline on hold ? Is that what you are saying ? Confused in Cleveland |
Not sure about a conspiracy but I do sense a personal attack. He's pointing his sticky finger at Maddie in retaliation for her current thread that sam identifies with. |
Okay .. not really worried bout' Maddie playing the role of "victim". Have fun kids. Peace out :) |

Its completely nuts. Everyone knows Bush was too incompetent to pull off the 911 attack. |
Bush might have been too incompetent, but there are plenty of others that could have pulled it off, and the majority of the U.S. would be none the wiser. Personally, I'm not buying very much of what the rightwing has always tried to sell, and while I wouldn't lay money on anything, I wouldn't put anything past certain factions, either. Sometimes... just sometimes... conspiracies turn out to be real, when you live in the real world and not in some narrow box. As to the OP... projection is never pretty. And Maddie wouldn't stoop to playing victim. |
Little conspiracies can be real. Not wiring the two towers, no. 7 and the pentagon, etc for explosives and the huge amount of rube goldbergian nuttiness that one has to accept to make such a conspiracy possible. Though I think it's conceivable that the PA jetliner was shot down by the air force and there was a cover up to avoid public uproar. |
I could believe the part of the PA plane being shot down to protect it from crashing into the White House or Capital |
They see spooks everywhere. From the JFK assassination to UFO's in Roswell to those Westboro Church clowns. The conspiracy nut really believes in his cause and tries desperately to convince others. Calmer heads don't buy into the conspiracy. |
I'm still waiting for the grassy knoll shooters to write their memoirs... |
You don't believe in Aliens, Sam? I do, for sure. I just am also sure that they haven't been to earth, nor are ever likely to. |
They might already be here as evidenced by some of the alien thought here... |
As I understand it, our Universe is so large, containing so many other galaxies, that it hasn't even all been measured or documented as of yet... that's an awful lot of empty space. It would be a great waste, a great shame, if we were the only "intelligent" life within it... and I use the word "intelligent" loosely... on the only inhabited planet, wouldn't it? I think there's definitely life out there somewhere... we simply haven't advanced enough to locate it. And if it's advanced, it's smart enough to keep its distance... No... I don't believe we're alone in this vast, unending Universe. |
You don't believe in Aliens, Sam? Of course I do, I'm in the nursery business (don't you ever visit the Trees Forum?) We couldn't carry on a business without them. The fact is that lately the sagging economy and Mexican fence have kept down their numbers. |
Jesse Ventura is a big fan of this 911 conspiracy, Aliens visiting the earth over the past 4.5 billion years is much much more probable. But we covered that before, it's not a topic for anyone who wants to retain their credibility wants to touch upon. Too Hot to handle, even here. As for me, I'm too old to care. |
I have a buddy that listens to way too much "Coast to Coast". He believes that the government is putting some sort of toxins into the con-trails (we're the test subjects). He also blathers on about the Bilderbergers (sp?) and the New World Order.

There's a grand difference between probable conspiracies and those that are just plain nutty. I think we'd be fooling ourselves if we thought no conspiracies existed... the global population and its imbalance of power, wealth, and influence would indicate that there are many things kept out of the public realm. But to say that everything is as we're told by media, or is exactly as it appears to be would be, in my opinion, naive indeed. |

Couldn't agree more with previous reviewers. Feels gritty when you try to rub it in, doesn't absorb well, flakes off half way through the morning, doesn't feel like you've moisturised at all.
NYR needs to do more creams in plastic tubes so people who travel can take their favourite products along. I bought this to travel with and really regretted buying it and have thrown the remainder away.

Damon Albarn confirms plans for new Blur album
Damon Albarn has reportedly confirmed that the band will record a new album following the release of his forthcoming solo LP.
The frontman said the band are working on new songs for an eighth studio album, but it won't be released for a while yet, according to the Wall Street Journal. It comes after Albarn hinted in Hong Kong earlier this year that they may record new material and his Gorillaz collaborator Jamie Hewlett said they were working on a new record. The band have released standalone tracks "Fool's Day", "The Puritan" and "Under The Westway" since Graham Coxon rejoined them after a long hiatus in 2008 but a new album has not been forthcoming so far.
Albarn is currently in New York to promote his musical Monkey: Journey To The West. Speaking of the show and his various other musical projects, he also spoke more of his new solo album. He said: "You can hear a lot, what's going on. It's quite intimate."
Albarn is working on the album with producer and XL Records label boss Richard Russell. He previously said of the record: "We worked together on the Bobby Womack record, and really enjoyed working together. He's done spectacularly well as a music mogul, but I think he wants to focus his energy on producing records. Making a solo record can be such a disaster, so I thought if we're going to make a record with my name on it, I should get someone to really produce it – take that responsibility away from myself."

My wife and I live in a rancher style home with our Master Bedroom and Bath Raised to a second level...we have 100% electric heat and know our rates will be steadily rising over the next year due to changes in the electric company's pricing. We are considering two options for supplementing (hopefully drastically reducing) the use of the dependence of the electric for heat. Hoping you folks would maybe give me more insight to which is more wise in the long run and where to focus my research, oh and we live in Southeastern PA if that changes anything.
Choice #1 - we have the ability to put a pellet stove in the basement and use a "secondary" chimney that is available for venting. This would probably eliminate the use of the electric heat in the basement but would enough heat "rise" up into our main living level of the home? This location is about right in the center of the basement. Choice #2 - we could install a wood/pellet insert in our fireplace that is located on the main level, I would think this option would better heat the main level but would keep the basement cold and dependent on the electric. Also our TV is hung above the fireplace and we would like it to stay there, so if the insert would affect our TV is guess that option is out at this point. Our bedroom level has always been the warmest room since it is raised and I guess heat does rise up to there, our home was built very well insulated. I would think if the basement pellet stove puts off enough heat to rise up through our floors and up the stairway to heat the main level that it would be a better choice, but thought I would ask here first...sorry for rambling on, thanks in advance. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Is your main level fireplace a real masonry fireplace or a pre-fab fireplace built into a chase cavity? Is your basement finished or unfinished? When my wife and I lived in Connecticut, we had electric heat. We saw plenty of similar home with wood burners in the basement and central heat register looking openings cut into the floor through to the basement. That enabled heat to rise through the openings to get heat to the upper levels. My wife and I preferred to enjoy the ambience of the burning wood and more direct heat so we put our stove on the main floor. If it were me, I'd go with the insert as long as your existing fireplace is really masonry. If it's pre-fab, you can remove the existing fireplace and install a high efficiency fireplace that not only will heat the main level while looking like a fireplace, but you can also run duct work out of the side of the unit down to your basement and blow heat to that level. That what we have at our ranch house now in Illinois. |
- Posted by coffeehaus (My Page) on Fri, Oct 14, 11 at 7:54
Our previous house had a woodstove in the basement that had been outfitted with a sort of big metal hood over the firebox that funneled the heat into the existing ducting system. No fan; it relied on convection, but I bet a clever person could devise a fan for a set-up like that. Adding to this was the fact that there was no insulation between the basement and the first floor living space...nice warm floors. We used the woodstove exclusively during the winter (central VA) and the house was toasty! It also kept the dirt and bugs from the logs confined to the basement. In 2009 we built a new house but we wanted to insulate the envelope, so we opted for a woodstove in the living room. A little more dirt to contend with, but as the previous poster pointed out, watching those flames on a cold winter night is better than TV. |

I intentionally went light on my own ideas to *try* to get people to actually give their input, since everybody constantly complains about how their voice isn't heard by Release Engineering and that I'm always off doing whatever I like. People also complain about the quality. Well, this is people's chance to suggest anything, openly. Though this has always been the case, nobody has ever really exercised it, so we decided to announce it again. At any rate, nobody is saying anything, which really just reminds me why I didn't bother to ask before... ;] Is it really that nobody cares or is everybody just being lazy and saying "yeah, that's good enough" when I intentionally didn't list lots of things that I'd came up with when writing the original list. I honestly don't know which it is here. /me is confused -- Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering Strategic Lead Games Developer

I am interesed in getting the Forbidden Alchemy expansion but remeber I read when it came out that there were a lot of problems with the product - both the components and rules. Then I belive they released a new version. Are the problems solved in the new version? If not, what problems still exist? If I buy the product, how can I be sure that I get the new version?
Forbidden Alchemy - is this product fixed now?
Posted 07 November 2012 - 12:31 AM
Posted 12 November 2012 - 05:18 AM
In short, yes.
The revised edition is current. Depending on where you get it from you might run across an old edition though (retailers shelf that didnt bother to update). I got my copy through Amazon and it was the revised edition (with the replacements for the main game). You will not be disappointed. FA is a very nice expansion even if it has one of the worst scenarios.
Posted 13 November 2012 - 08:53 PM
Be sure too that you have all your puzzle pieces for every time you are about to attempt the alchemy puzzle. Leaving out one of the pieces made it impossible.
Posted 15 November 2012 - 09:09 AM
"Impossible" for the alchemy puzzles is a little misleading. Technically, you always have a chance to pass or to fail a puzzle. Your puzzle attempt merely increases the chances of passing.
Posted 10 December 2012 - 04:18 AM
Good to know, I've been wanting to pick this expansion up for a while, but have been hessitant since there were those printing issues.

"We received so many compliments on this card. The colors are bright and fun for Easter without looking too childish. Couldn't be more pleased with the design, and qualityof this card."
"My daughter was in the NICU for several weeks, so we didn't get a chance to send out birth announcements. I still wanted to send something out with her pic this Spring, but not necessarily Easter specific. This card was perfect and super cute!"
"It really is a beautiful card and we got many many complements. But I would say it was difficult to find a card that wouldn't cut off the photos. So for that I would love if it would be possible to change not only the text but the design too. (just to properly fit the photos)"
"Love the card design and quality. All cards that we've purchased from tinyprints are exceptional quality! From our experience, the turnaround-time has always been faster than expected."
"everyone loved this invitation and complimented the pattern on the bunnies and bright green background and wording. we are thrilled as usual with tiny prints!"

I have a christmas cactus about 30 years old. we live in an apartment & it is kept in subdued light. Several segments have turned yellow. iIt is kept slightly moist. I repottedit last week & all seemed well. Can anyone suggest possible causes of yellowing? The segments will eventually drop. |
Follow-Up Postings:
It might be lack of light? Also, while CCs can handle more watering than most other succulents, it does like to go dry between waterings - not bone dry, mind you, but keeping it continuously moist is not a good idea. Have you cared for this plant for 30 years, or was it given to you? The reason I ask is that if it was given to you, another reason for the yellowing leaves could be the shock of moving. Shelly |

Hi, I'm Elizabeth Esther. Thank you for visiting my website!
I'm a writer, wife and mother of five.
I love books, rescue dogs, daily naps, flow-y dresses and rainy days.
I'm the author of Girl at The End of the World: my escape from fundamentalism in search of faith with a future (published March 2014 by Convergent Books, an imprint of Random House) and is available wherever books are sold. Click on the picture below to purchase my book from Amazon.
This blog began as a way for me to deconstruct the harmful effects of fundamentalist religion. I grew up inside a homegrown Christan fundamentalist church–which is a nice way of saying I've been classically trained in Bible Trivia and stockpiling for the Apocalypse. I left that church 10 years ago. I still can't go to church without needing to call my therapist afterwards. But I won't let go of faith entirely–especially since experiencing a small glimpse of the unconditional love of God. I've written about how I was taught to never trust my heart, why I believed I was an inherently evil human being, and the abusive idea that God wants parents to spank their children until their "will is broken." I've written about learning to forgive and be forgiven through Confession ,the damaging effects of "purity culture" and how Mary brought me back to Jesus. I entered the Catholic Church in 2009.
On December 2, 2011, I was a guest on Anderson Cooper's daytime talk show. I shared my first-hand experiences with the abusive "child-training" methods of Michael Pearl.
Now that I've written a book about my experiences, my blog is evolving. I'm more focused on emotional recovery, embracing mystery and living with an open heart.
I am working on a second book, due to be released in spring of 2016.
My literary agent is Rachelle Gardner of Books and Such Literary.
I live in Southern California with my husband, Matt, and our five children: Jewel (15), James (13), Jude (11) and the twins, Jorai & Jasiel (7).

I wrote the foreword for this book and this book.
I also write on parenting topics like my prestigious job as Chief Executive Butt Wiper to my battle with depression/PPD. I've written about the challenges of raising my super-hero ADHD son and why taking time to dither and fritter is not wasted time.
