Plutonium-Tainted Soil Found at Russian Amphetamine Site
Plutonium-tainted dirt that might come from the Chernobyl site was discovered during a recent bust of a amphetamine production facility in Moscow, RIA Novosti reported on Thursday.
"We have taken an underground amphetamine lab out of operation," the Federal Drug Control Service stated following the operation by Russian antidrug officers and the Federal Security Service.
"During a search our special services found a small container which probably contains earth from Chernobyl, the radiation dosimeter readings were off the charts. Plutonium was also detected. Four sources of ionizing radiation were found in the car of one of those detained," according to the agency. It said the suspects might be linked to a terrorist group.
The account of the raid was issued two weeks after it occurred. Authorities are receiving assistance from radioactive material management personnel from MosNPO Radon.
A 1986 explosion at the Chernobyl reactor site in what is now Ukraine dispersed radiation across a wide area.

PROVIDENCE, R.I. — A.H. Belo, the Dallas-based company which owns The Providence Journal, announced Tuesday afternoon that it has reached an agreement to sell "substantially all" of The Journal's assets to New Media Investment Group, the parent company of GateHouse Media LLC, for $46 million in cash.
The deal includes The Journal's production facility on Kinsley Avenue, but not its headquarters at 75 Fountain Street or its other facilities, including its downtown parking lots and the former Rhode Island Monthly / Sunday inserting building.
A.H. Belo said the new owners will lease the Fountain Street headquarters and parking lots for a year after the closing of the sale.
The deal is expected to close in the third quarter.
"We are pleased that New Media is purchasing The Providence Journal assets and we are confident that New Media will continue the great journalistic tradition of The Providence Journal," said Jim Moroney, chairman, president and CEO of A.H. Belo, in a statement announcing the sale.
"We thank our colleagues in Providence for their hard work and support as we have been privileged to own and operate The Providence Journal for the past seventeen years."
Michael E. Reed, president and CEO of New Media, said: "We are very excited to announce the proposed transaction with A. H. Belo. The Providence Journal is one of the most established and prominent newspapers in the United States and is the preeminent provider of local content to the greater Providence marketplace."
"In addition, its high quality editorial standards have resulted in four Pulitzer Prizes for the newspaper. We are very excited to welcome the paper, its employees and the community into the growing New Media family. We deeply admire the great work that has been done in Providence under the stewardship of A. H. Belo, and look forward to continuing that tradition."
In a letter to Journal employees, GateHouse Media CEO Kirk Davis, said: "The Providence Journal is one of the great success stories in American newspaper history. We recognize and value The Journal's iconic brand, its tradition of providing award-winning journalism and its unrivaled role as Rhode Island's dominant media source.
"We enter Providence and Rhode Island deeply committed to supporting a journalistically proud, sustainable, agile, and innovative newspaper."
New Media is one of the largest publishers of locally based print and online media in the United States, as measured by the number of daily publications.
Among its properties are The Herald News, in Fall River; the Standard-Times, in New Bedford; the Taunton Daily Gazette, the Patriot Ledger, in Quincy; The Enterprise, in Brockton; the MetroWest Daily News, in Framingham; and the Cape Cod Times.
Including the acquisition of The Journal, the company will operate in 363 markets across 27 states.
The company currently owns 451 community publications, 367 related websites, and six yellow page directories, and serves more than 130,000 business advertising accounts, reaching more than 12 million people weekly.

What makes Amazon tick, and where is the company headed?
This week on the GeekWire radio show, we go behind-the-scenes of the technology giant with our guest, John Rossman, author of the book, The Amazon Way: 14 Leadership Principles Behind the World's Most Disruptive Company.
Rossman, who is now a managing director at management consulting firm Alvarez and Marsal, previously worked at Amazon, starting as the company's director of merchant services. His book offers a wide variety of insights on Amazon's culture and strategy, in the form of the lessons he took away from his tenure at the company.
We start our conversation with a story that Rossman tells at the outset of his book — an eye-opening anecdote about a meeting of Amazon's senior leadership team in which Rossman did not answer a question in the way CEO Jeff Bezos wanted.
What happened? Listen to the show below or via this MP3 file. The conversation begins in the second segment, at the 9:30 mark, after our weekly news roundup, in which we share our perspective on Microsoft's unprecedented job cuts.
App of the Week: CoupConnect lets you store and track deals from Groupon, Living Social and AmazonLocal, with a new marketplace for buying and selling deals.

Corn-fed cutie Jessie Bell accidently smashes her vehicle into a papier mache cow. She then finds herself within the confines of Meetweed Manor after being chased by an inbred oaf who hollers something about "…the curse of the purple cow!" Three female thugs, calling themselves The Hells Belles, murder one of their teachers and also find their way to Meetweed Manor.
From this point Lord Meetweed gives a tour of his most unusual grounds which are splashed in bright gaudy colors and rebel flags. His staff includes: a pistol toting transvestite who rubs his privates a lot and shoots a rocket out of his ass, Missus Meat Bone the voodoo priestess, Go-Go-Rilla the piano pounding primate, humongous kitchen knives that get it on and a Priest with a flamethrower.
Lord Meetweed cultivates a crop known as Meat Weed that's part vegetation and part human flesh. Meat Weed is supposed to be the best smoke around, but after prolonged usage (one toke) it drives its consumers mad. Of course the girls are unaware of the ingredients or its extreme mind-altering abilities and immediately get stoned. Once high the Hells Belles launch into some lesbian action and then later a pool side wet towel fight. It's hot at Meetweed Manor and the girls beat the heat by staying naked from top to bottom.
Bullpucky, a man in a cow suit with jeans and a leather jacket, kills off the girls one by one. At the hooves of the benevolent man-cow the first is decapitated, and the other two are disemboweled and more papier mache not-so-special-effects are employed here. But just who is this strange creature called Bullpucky?
Jessie Bell finds out, in a flashback, that she is the reincarnated Jezebel Meetweed who, many years ago, copulated with a cow – the purple cow, and gave birth to a half man – half beast. Jessie Bell's accident at the beginning of the film has brought Bullpucky back from beyond and the only way to stop his murdering spree is for Jessie to marry him, or so Lord Meetweed would have her believe. So now there's a bestiality angle along with some incest as Lord Meetweed points out that Bullpucky is Jessie Bell's son. Naturally Jessie Bell has no intention of marrying her offspring, cow or not, and disposes of Bullpucky once and for all. Or does she?
"Meat Weed Madness" is a curious fusion of "Alice in Wonderland", "Reefer Madness" and Herschell Gordon Lewis' "Two Thousand Maniacs". It's shot directly onto video and contains lots of gore, bizarre situations and female nudity. It's not particularly funny or gross or sexy, but it was gratifying in some sort of weird way.
Troma released this with director Aiden Dillard's short feature "Battle of the Burps and Farts" which Lloyd Kaufman claims was a high-point at Tromadance 2004.

Share your thoughts
What do you think of the
Billabong Loma Pant - Women's
? Share a...
Natalie Haugerud
Soo... there is only a medium left but I...
Soo... there is only a medium left but I just got a sick new jacket and these pants would go with it but I'm 5'5 and 110pounds and there is only a medium left in the new violet... So is that a for sure nogo or should I try them out??
we'll the Billabong pant fit is a bit generous...not sure why the previous comment felt was way big. The pants have adjustable side velcro tabs though.
Hard to tell, you should be the correct size with a M, it's just personal preference if you like to rise with tight pants or not
Too big :(
I can tell these pants would fit perfectly, if only they were my size. I am a 6 in pants and ordered the M, but I was swimming in them. No more smalls on this site, had to order them from elsewhere. Otherwise super comfy and warm, with a hint of fit for those girlie-girls.
Don't trust the sizing chart
After looking at the sizing chart I decided to order the M in Teal. I'm 5'6 115 pounds, normally wear a size 27 in jeans. I was concerned the Small would be too tight around the waist and too short. I was wrong. These pants are enormous. I buttoned them up and they fell off. Seriously they fit like a Large. The length was good but the sizing chart is way off. I'm sending them back.
Taylor Cullen
wore this 5 times this season
really happy with this pant the color on the teal is more green then blue tho. so comfortable fits perfect.

The result is an extremely tender roast and a delicious sauce. Sauerbraten is traditionally served with dumplings, boiled potatoes or noodles.

Why Web Pirates Can't Be Touched
Re:Please everyone: (402 comments)
Nobody is required to buy a CD, or a movie, or a piece of software, so why shouldn't someone be able to charge whatever they want for it?
Everybody is required to listen and see force fed ads everywhere they go. I'd be perfectly happy not knowing all the great songs and movies I miss. How could I pirate something I don't know about?
Another thing, maybe how layman would think of all this nonsense: they played it on TV or radio and so I've seen or heard it for free. Why should I now pay for it? Because they say so? I could've recorded it then, would they still insist that I can't use the record without paying? For some reason that I don't care about, recording is too complicated these days and I rather use internet to get it if I want to see it again.

A Little Less Ireland, A Little More Éire
A few days ago I pointed to the criticisms made of Ireland by many experts in the field of international tourism due to the country's failure to build upon our huge potential for overseas tourism and education based upon the Irish language and culture. If more evidence of that surge in interest relating to the Irish language in the United States and Canada was needed in can be found in this article from the New York Daily News:
"Madeleine Ní Ghallchobhair found her niche: using her Irish roots to enhance Bronx culture.
The lass from a small coastal town called Belmullet is teaching her native language at three Bronx colleges for a year on a Fulbright scholarship: Manhattan College, the College of Mount St. Vincent and Lehman College.
"Here, I've got a much wider variety of students: Hispanic, African-American, people who don't have Irish-American roots but are interested anyway," the bubbly 23-year-old said in an interview at her Lehman College office.
"I gave a speech to one of the classes here and asked, 'What do you know about Ireland?'" she recalled, laughing.
"Out of 40 people in the class, they said, '(The Irish) like to drink, and (the country is) green.' Strengthening the link between Ireland and America is really important. A lot of people don't even know…the real Ireland, with our language and dance."
The daughter of a veterinary inspector and a farmer, Ghallchobhair studied at University College in Dublin, and then received her master's degree in writing and communications in 2010. But the oldest of five children said she always knew she wanted to teach.
And after visiting San Francisco with friends one summer, she fell in love with the United States and was thrilled when she landed the NYC fellowship.
"It's all about meeting as many people as possible, and strengthening the Irish community in America," she said.
"I just feel like there's a possibility that I can attract more people if I do secondary teaching," she said. "I didn't realize how passionately I feel about (Irish culture and language) until I got here.""
So when is Fáilte Ireland going to become Fáilte Éireann?

Wish there was an effective way of learning Irish other than full immersion in a Gaeltacht region or going to a college to take courses in it. For a lot of people, myself included, neither are practical options. Rosetta Stone offers a course in it, but previous experience with the product in a different language (Russian) shows that it mostly teaches sentence structure and some commonly used phrases. Not actual fluency.
Oh well, maybe some day. I imagine it would be in Ireland's interest to make it easier to learn Irish. Some sort of online program would be great. Can't think of a much better use of your tax revenue than extending the reach of your culture and language, particularly for your diaspora.
Hi James, Get in touch with Daltaí na Gaeilge – they organize classes all up and down the East coast of the US and in some other areas too. They have a great website.
In the article above, Madeleine's surname is given as Ghallchobhair – it's actually Ní Ghallchobhair – the Ní is part of her surname, not her middle name.

AirTunes, wireless iTunes music streaming; iTunes 4.6 coming soon
MacMinute reports that "Apple today introduced AirPort Express, "the world's first 802.11g mobile base station that can be plugged directly into the wall for wireless Internet connections and USB printing, or thrown into a laptop bag to bring wireless freedom to hotel rooms with broadband connections." Airport Express also features analog and digital audio outputs that can be connected to a stereo and new AirTunes music networking software that wirelessly streams music to any room in the house. AirPort Express features a single piece ultra-compact design weighing 6.7 ounces, and will be available to Mac and PC users in July for US$129. AirTunes requires the next version of iTunes (iTunes 4.6), which is expected to be available later this week as a free download."

Holy crap thats awsome!
The audio output is such a good idea and you can have multiple AirPort expresses in diffrent rooms and select the rooms from iTunes.

Awesome! Now they just need AirPort Express with TV-out and an iPhoto update so you can have a slideshow on your TV wirelessly!

but does that mean the computer has to have wi-fi in the first place?
Posted by interesting on June 7, 2004 at 11:35 AM (CDT)
You have to have a wireless card to work with it. See http://www.apple.com/airportexpress/specs.html
Posted by kainjow on June 7, 2004 at 11:41 AM (CDT)
Will it be sold in the UK? Will it work in the UK?

Will this work with other 802.11g networks or just the Airport Extreme?
Posted by Guest on June 7, 2004 at 12:09 PM (CDT)
I'm pretty sure it'll be sold in and work in the UK. Why wouldn't it?
Posted by Daniel Kennett on June 7, 2004 at 12:09 PM (CDT)
Per the specs, it will act as a base station (say in a hotel) by connecting it to the ethernet port in the hotel room, then using a wireless card let you connect. Or as a network extender (within range but not physically connected to the network). Pretty nifty and in such a small device. So will there be an iPod add-on to use it wireless to stream to a stereo? I know iTrip lets you do this on an FM band already.
Posted by Leo Wiggins on June 7, 2004 at 12:13 PM (CDT)
Good… waiting for the next itteration however…
1. I have doubts that you will need a wireless card to use the device. It includes a 10/100 port, so if you have a wireless router, or a LAN base configuration, I'd expect the card to work… it doesn't make sense to purchase a wireless card for my desktop for this item to work with it.
2. Other devices read media off of your network, thus your workstation would act like a file server. Apple's solution requires a lot of server side services to allow audio thru… Maybe I want to listen to music in my living room while someone else uses my workstation for some other purpose… maybe even listen to a different iTunes playlist. Apple's solution looks like music is simply streamed from the workstation to the audio jack, not allowing any control over the playlist or offsetting decryption of the files to the Airport Express.
Simple, clean, and easy to configure…
However, being a server side technology, it doesn't do anything more than extend the range of your workstation's speakers for a heavy price.
I'll keep waiting till I have a wireless device able to decode AAC, and JPG files for my living room.
Posted by John on June 7, 2004 at 12:26 PM (CDT)
I wonder if this will work if your computer is hooked up to a network that has a wifi AP on it. It looks pretty neat either way, and depending on how good the range is, it looks like it could be good for just plug and play wifi extenders as well…
Posted by Thejavaman1 on June 7, 2004 at 12:32 PM (CDT)
why wait until the device to decode AAC and JPG files? Your computer will do that for you and the stereo will simply play whatever you want from the playlist you selected. It is definitely a very good utilization of wireless technology.
Posted by ililililil on June 7, 2004 at 12:34 PM (CDT)
Sounds like there's a pretty good chance that the next generation iPod will be WiFi compatible. Cool!

For music streaming, Squeezebox is cooler, has been around for more than a year, works on both PCs *and* Macs (and even Linux), and includes a remote and a display.
Posted by Squeezebox on June 7, 2004 at 1:14 PM (CDT)
Squeezebox may have a remote and a display, but Airport Express is a full-blown 802.11g base station (access point) that can also be used for music streaming. To me, that's FAR more compelling.
I get an Airport Extreme base station (only 10 clients not 50 but really who needs 50 for home use) that I can use at home AND take with me on trips, an Airport range extender (for my already existing Airport network), and on top of that I can plug my stereo into this little puppy and play whatever is playing on my TiBook (equipped with Airport card). Way cool, IMHO.
Posted by Marian Petrides on June 7, 2004 at 1:28 PM (CDT)
Squeezebox is neat but it's more expensive. It also doesn't add the features of printer sharing and acting as a router. Squeezebox does have the LED screen though!
Posted by street_hawk on June 7, 2004 at 1:41 PM (CDT)
I don't think this device acts as a router. It can be used to extend the network, but you still need a separate router (Airport Extreme)
Posted by ililililil on June 7, 2004 at 1:46 PM (CDT)
it's pretty exciting, but I agree that it should have TV out for the next iteration.
Still even to have a wifi basestation that small and mobile, then a printer share and music stream fxn on top is quite nice.
Posted by Starboard on June 7, 2004 at 1:52 PM (CDT)
——I'm pretty sure it'll be sold in and work in the UK. Why wouldn't it?——
Aren't wireless devices gov't regulated? Wouldn't Apple need to got have this approved by each gov't.?
Also, its got a US plug… can that plug be quickly swaped for a UK version? Can it handle the different voltage?
Sorry if this is a foolish question.

New malware being used by cybercrooks does more than let hackers loot a
bank account; it hides evidence of a victim's dwindling balance by
rewriting online bank statements on the fly, according to a new report.
The sophisticated hack uses a Trojan horse program installed on the
victim's machine that alters html coding before it's displayed in the
user's browser, to either erase evidence of a money transfer transaction
entirely from a bank statement, or alter the amount of money transfers
and balances.
The ruse buys the crooks time before a victim discovers the fraud,
though won't work if a victim uses an uninfected machine to check his or
her bank balance.
The novel technique was employed in August by a gang who targeted
customers of leading German banks and stole Euro 300,000 in three weeks,

I am getting ready to start a vegetable garden in Portland and having a hard time locating it partially because of the house shadow and hours of sun. I have two locations I am considering, one may get about an hour more of direct light but reduce my large families gathering space. The other spot has an hour less sun and, although the house shadow is not affecting it right now, is in more jeopardy of that becoming a problem later in the summer. I was wondering about how many hours of sun Portland gardeners are getting on their gardens? In particular, fruiting plants like tomatoes which ive read like about 10 hours in order to be productive. Also between what hours are you receiving direct sun? For instance, 9.30-5? My garden will be on the north side of my house. I read somewhere that since the sun is (almost) to its most northern point that the shadow from the house will increase from The summer solstice through the end of the growing season, can anyone who may have been paying attention to this let me know if the shadow increases by approximately half or more like a quarter of what it is now by September (is that the end of summer gardening?)? Thanks |
Follow-Up Postings:
Hi, Have you considered planting the more sun hungry vegs in containers so that they can get optimal sun without sacrificing a large chunk of real estate? I have my tomatoes in large galvanized washtubs and they do well although container gardening is a bit different than in the ground. There are loads of beautiful containers out there or you could use a large plastic tote and disguise it behind low plants or some strips bamboo blind? Just a thought. Julie |
- Posted by changingitup none (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Mon, Jun 3, 13 at 13:32
Do you move your containers around to catch the sun? |
No, I don't move them around but I guess you could. I just thought you might be able to put containers of the plants that need as much sun as possible in your family gathering space and they wouldn't take up as much room as an inground space. You could still have an in-ground garden in the less sunny area for things that don't need quite as much sun to survive. Or do you possibly have room for containers in a narrow sunny area like along your driveway etc. where they would also benefit from radiated heat? |
- Posted by changingitup none (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Mon, Jun 3, 13 at 19:57
Oh, ya- good idea! The family area doesn't get the 10 hours of sunlight that was suggested, but it is closer than the other side, plus it is up against a brick wall which will give extra heat- can the added heat help make up for less sun? |
I don't think anything makes up for lack of sunlight but maybe someone with more info will speak up. |
Hasn't 6 or more hours of sun always been considered a full sun exposure for purposes of ornamental planting? |
- Posted by larry_gene USDA8b-OregonPDX (My Page) on Mon, Jun 3, 13 at 23:50
Vegetable plants being exposed to the light of day is more important than the hours of direct sunshine, so cloudy, mild days are nearly as effective for vegetable crops, and tomatoes in particular benefit from warmer cloudy nights, so don't worry about precise hours of sunshine. Complete shade is another matter; vegetables will do better with at least morning to mid-day or mid-day to evening sun (either case)(half-day). In Portland, afternoon sun is more reliable than the morning variety. You under-estimate the shade difference from sun angles; in Portland it hits a maximum mid-day angle of 68 degrees on 21 June and backs down to 45 degrees on 21 September. There is no significant difference in sun angle between now and the 4th of July. Shadows cast on 21 September are 2.5 times as long as 21 June shadows. It can get very shady by summer's end. |

I sure did underestimate the shadow! Thanks for clearing that up, very useful information in locating this garden. 2.5x my house shadow makes containers in the family area, with at least a half day of evening sun, the best for the full sun vegetables. Thanks guys. |
When the say FULL SUN, it does not mean PNW's 15 hours of sun. 5 hours will do for most, provided after those ours it is not heavily shaded. Filtered light through trees also can help. But 6+ hours of direct sun is fine. Unless you are growing watermelons and giant pumpkins. |
- Posted by changingitup none (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Wed, Jun 5, 13 at 12:19
All of your info and suggestions helped me come up with a better plan and I finally have vegetables planted. Originally I had built raised beds to fill the family area with the thought that I wanted the garden all in one place, for some reason I hadn't even considered spreading it between the two. The result of your help was that i located three of the boxes in the family area in a way that still left sitting space. It ends up that as I studied my three day span of hourly pictures in preparing this I hadn't taken into account the height of the boxes raising the veggies and this morning the tomatoes, peppers and corn are basking in 8 am sun light which should go on until 6. One of the boxes should be shaded until 11ish but still at least the 6 hours suggested. In the area where the house shadow will increase and a tree dapples the morning sun I plan to start at the farthest point with a couple espalierd fruit trees, blueberries in front of those, strawberries and other perennials in front of those, and just slowly move towards the house over time and see how it goes. Thanks! As a side note, I ended up having one extra box which I flipped up on its long side to move out of the way and realized it would make a great rustic grilling buffet (boxes are out of old fence boards and after trimming off worn areas measure 5'8.5x2'10.25"x16.5) so after adding boards to the bottom and a couple supports I am loving this addition to the yard. :D |
- Posted by dottyinduncan z8b coastal BC (My Page) on Wed, Jun 5, 13 at 18:32
It seems as though you have decided on a great solution. I think that veggie plants are quite attractive, and putting them close to the family section should mean that they get attention for weeding -- and also for swiping cherry tomatoes and fresh peas straight from the vine. Eating veggies this way makes veggie lovers of even the smallest of child. Now, we'd like to see some pictures please. |
It sounds WONDERFUL! Isn't it great to have ideas from so many folks? This forum has really helped me to learn so much. |

During harvest and pruning, there will be a fair amount of tramping around in the espalier and blueberry area, so I would recommend placing some round stepping-pavers in the area to keep the root zones from compacting, or you can just use a chunk of plywood and have it as a mobile stepper. Either method keeps repeated footfalls from compacting the soil. Depending on how the tomatoes were started, the original pre-transplant growth may be sun-tender, but new growth should remain green and the plant will grow out of the scorching phase. Otherwise, use row cover or shade cloth. |

Well, I gave it a shot this year, trying to grow a big pumpkin. I only tried watering this year, no extra fertilizer and according to my measurements, one should by over 200 and the other 180. My question is this. I am bring them both to a school at the end of October but I do not know if there is anything that I should be doing to it in the meantime. Is there anything? One has stayed a very light yellow color and the other is now starting to turn a nice deep orange. I am just worried that as it sits there and ripens I might lose weight or structural integrity. I appreciate any help you all can offer.
I can't wait till next year when I start fertilizing more. If I can do this just with extra watering... ~Mike~ |

I am going to try growing the Howard Dill's Giants next year. My seeds are ordered. My compost bed is ready. I am going to start them inside under neon lights in the month of March - 150 days is a long period to grow in my region and if I want to present one of my champions in an early fall fair, I have to be ready. How did your pumpkin ended up, finally? |

Drama Queens!
Are hallucinogens legal in Greece?
People like this Alexis are insane Greeks better get used to what Argentinians have lived through one too many times.
A good majority of Greeks know these words quite well... What should be taught in schools is "political oversight" and "political responsibility"....
I agree with you Jeff. People don't want to take responsibility for past undue advantages and for having lived over their means.
Not only are political rights granted under a democracy, but also responsibility for actions taken or inaction.
European people are, in a immature way, electing governments that speak the langage of illusion and false promises, instead of waking up and facing reality now.
Germany and Europe should not accept that behavior and force Greece out of the Euro zone in case it fails to accept austerity.
Please correct your graphics: in the previous elections there was no 50 seat-bonus for the party which came first, so PASOK's tally corresponds to its share of the vote.
This very undemocratic bonus which gives the largest party 20% of the total seats (!!!) was voted by the New Democracy deputies when they were last in power. According to the relevant Greek law, this kinds of changes in the electoral law only apply in the second-to-next election.
Here is how the banker's game works:
mansoor h. khan
disagreed, the Eu debt crisis is the very outcome of economic stimulus package adopted by EU back in 2009, when the US Subordinated Deb crisis affected the EU. Austerity is exactly the right solution, its just been more painful in countries like Greece and Spain, because they've had too much debts. The equation is simple: you borrow more, you pay more back.
True, but there is no credible plan with the IMF 'salvation' package.
Sell, sell, sell, get poorer, poorer poorer with no end in sight, while the deficit keeps growing. If that's a plan, I'd rather go with no plan.
Bad politicians, or bad policy? Is there anyone who could choose between these two? This is the dilemma greeks faced during recent elections.
The results was not a vote against euro. I thing that all the greeks are prepare to make sucrifices, within a system of justice and equality, as the results of greek elections are not yet final.
Banks ARE to blame for much of the problem , including their refusal to accept that their pay should reflect the mess they made ! However I think that it's also important to remember the following;
- No one FORCED anyone to use their home as a source of inexhaustible income by constantly remortgaging. The banks made profits but many saw it as a legitimate form of income (DIY Ponsy scheme !)
- Governments could have said to their electorate that it was important to keep some cash back for the eventual changes that would happen when 'readjustment' took place . Instead they borrowed against fictional equity to increase living standards and allowed consumers to do the same. Thus ignoring the cyclical nature of economics.
- This increased living standard led people to believe that a world where a meal out was the norm and that the accumulation of needless items of clothing , electricals ," extra virgin olive oil" etc. was not only desirable but essential.
In short most of us took some part in the disaster.
The problem in Greece is that: the educational system does not provide the suitable job for the right person. The majority of people doesn't like the job they are doing, because there were almost no chance, in their youth to got the qualifications they needed for what they are talended. I know that sound very odd, but that's it. The educational system does not support men and women with specific talends and specific areas of intelligence. So you can see a very intelligent woman to clean houses, and a very stupit one, to have a very important job in the public sector, just because her father knew a minister. Or, you can see someone with a univerciry deegre in economics to be very bad at it, and be very good at mechanical engineerings.
In Greece is very difficult for someone to do the job he wants.
What is 'austerity'? Not spending 15 mil plus donnating a government piece of land to build a mosque(and paying a mufti for eternity-and creating similar obligations for anyone else), as voted last year by Samaras, Venizelos and Tsipras(they're all together on disastrous decisions) is not 'austerity'. Merging embassies abroad with other PIIGS is also hardly 'austerity'. Not throwing money down the drain is not austrity. Collecting taxes is not austerity. Slashing wages in the private sector is not austerity, it is suicide if the goal is to pay back the debt.
It is a simple logic that "you borrow more, you pay more back", and it is in deed a neat moral statement. But it belies a more complex situation. Not only Greece, but the world at large depends on growth, and in order to generate growth money must be lended, because that is how banks invent wealth in the modern world. I do not think that it is sustainable in any way, but why should greeks and spaniards feel more pain than other Europeans? If you allow austerity to happen, you should at the very least also accept banks to take the full responsibility for their business and fail if they can't perform. The current policy of bail-out for some and austerity for some seems hypocritical to me.
Greece cannot afford to stay in the Euro.
We're giving money to banks, not bailing out Greece. Or rather, our treasonous politicians are giving money to banks, using Greece as intermediary.
The Euro is a dream world for speculator scum. Now countries are trapped in a situation where they cannot devalue, and gaining leverage by influencing only a handful of politicians or placing stooges in the one Central Bank (Draghi, Goldman Sachs parasite) is much easier. And the volumes are bigger too. Easier to get access to LTRO's and the likes, easier to get massive bailouts ad guarantees and socialization of losses.
We in Netherlands and Germany didn't have such problems we have now before the wealth-destroying Euro (a banker project) was introduced. The Euro is our misfortune.
If we promise to hang any banker that tries to bet against a currency, no such problems as you describe would happen. Parasites like Blankfiend and Jamie Demon need to be rooted out. Not praised because they are not geniuses they are thieving parasites.
As long as the banker scum rake in massive profits and bonuses at our expense, suffer austerity we will not.
I might listen when you have hanged Lloyd Blankfein and Jamie Dimon for being dirty thieves. But not before.
Like in the Tremonti videogame,a monster after another.The "markets" will believe that after Greece it's up to Portugal,and so on.Ad maiora!
Or would "Drachma Queens" soon be more appropriate?
Growth for the western world is over, the financial system is totally unsustainable. Economic models based on 'perpetual population growth' and 'perpetual debt' cannot last, and indeed they won't.

Fishing continues to be excellent at Painter's Lodge and April Point Resort in the Discover Passage and Campbell River area with a resort record 44 lb chinook brought in earlier in the week. Springs are averaging in the mid teens and many tyees in the 30's are also hitting the docks through mooching and the more traditional tyee fishing from rowboats in the World Famous Tyee Pools. There are a good number of Pinks in the area as well as hatchery Coho. Anglers are having the best luck fishing with flasher-hootchie combinations, spoons and plugs at Deepwater and Green Sea Bay.

Petro was born in St. Louis, Missouri. After several moves and at the age of one Petro put down roots in Kansas City. From 1974 through high school he grew up in Prairie Village, KS, graduating from Shawnee Mission East in 1989. Petro decided to attend Syracuse University and pursue a Broadcast Journalism degree. After four years of late night pizza, subs, and many beers Petro emerged from Syracuse with a BS degree from the Newhouse School of Communications in 1993.
After turning down job offers in locations like Whiteville, North Carolina, Petro took his first job in broadcasting with what then was called KCTE-AM 1510… The Team. His first position was in sales, but lasted only a few months. Petro then began work with Peter Yates Enich on the Pete Enich Show. The Pete Enich Show was the first local sports talk show on 1510 later to be called Sports Radio 1510. After a year the popularity of The Pete Enich Show dictated expanding the show to three hours, and Petro joined Enich as his co-host. The two worked together two plus years before being fired for being "too expensive". Petro was summoned to the office of Gary Acker, then owner of 1510, on the Wednesday after Syracuse lost to Kentucky in the 1996 National Championship game. Petro was informed that he was being let go, along with Pete Enich because their salaries were too high for the station to cover. Petro was making a whopping $16,000 per year after receiving a raise several months before from his original annual salary of $12,000. Petro actually had to inform Pete that he was fired while Enich was on the beach.

A comeback for the humpback
Blogger for The Christian Science Monitor
The humpback whale, once hunted to the brink of extinction, has staged a dramatic comeback in the North Pacific over the past few decades, a new study shows.
The study, funded primarily by NOAA and conducted by SPLASH (Structure of Populations, Levels of Abundance and Status of Humpbacks), an international organization of more than 400 whale watchers, found that that the overall population of humpbacks has rebounded to approximately 18,000 to 20,000 animals. In 1966, when international whaling for this species was banned, there were only 1,500 humpbacks.
Some isolated populations of humpbacks, particularly those in the Western Pacific, have recovered more slowly and still suffer low numbers.
A press release from NOAA describes how the study was conducted:
Cascadia Research in Olympia, Wash., the central coordinator for the SPLASH project, matched photographs from six different feeding and breeding areas. By matching whale flukes photographed in their feeding areas with those photographed in the wintering areas, researchers were able to determine the patterns of individual whale movements, as well as estimate the sizes of different populations.
In addition to whale fluke photographs, SPLASH researchers collected more than 6,000 biopsy samples for studies of genetics and pollutants, along with thousands of additional photographs to determine how levels of scarring from line entanglement and ship strikes vary among regions. The samples, which are yet to be analyzed, will provide valuable insights into the complex population structure and current threats to further recovery.

Thanks, I'm trying to get it sold so I can get my kid a go cart or mini bike, and I don't really have use for this one, I hunt a lot and have a full size 870, this is one I cut down myself, still think its worth that much?
Put it this way... You'll never get more for it than now. Did ya at least use a black bluing marker on the muzzle and tap the bead back in? I presume you measured the barrel correctly and it's still legal. The gun without the barrel is still worth a coupla hundred despite being a modern Remington 870. Some yahoo is looking for just that gun today. Throw in a box of 00 Buckshot OR even more deadly #4 Birdshot and it's already sold!
I reblued the end of the barrel, its measured a tad longer than 18.25" it doesn't have a bead but the end of the vent rib works very nice for aiming, and I'm including some 000 buck and some high brass buffered #2s with it as well.
Buy at Sears or borrow the right tap, could have a 'smith, install that bead and you'll get quite a few hundred for that gun -- it's a sellers market now. With that OC and just one box of #2 shotshells you've probably already sold it right here (I don't mean me, but someone)!
May do that tomorrow if I sell it here do I have to transfer it to a dealer, because I don't want to go through all of that, I don't know if I'm gonna sell it yet, just seeing what I may get for it
Just offered a trade for a stainless like new s&w chief special in 38 special with two boxes of ammo, straight trade, is it worth it? Local trade, really want to avoid shipping and all that nonsense
If your not using it, and you would use the 38 its a no brainer to me. Condition pending of course. I like my S&W 38 442 a lot. I carry it on my ankle 99% of the time. I don't become attached to things very easily. If I don't use it, I trade it or sell it. Go by your gut, feels right, no hassle, no shipping, do it.
It's in like new condition, and my other shotguns get used for hunting, don't have a use for this one, if and when Illinois gets ccw, this is what Ive been wanting a snubbie in 38 special so I think its a win win.

Authentic Chinese language and culture learning in N.C. elementary, middle and high schools
More than 8,000 North Carolina K-12 students are studying Chinese language and culture through the Center for International Understanding's first-in-the-nation statewide network of Confucius Classrooms. School year 2013-14 marks the fourth year of this innovative global experience for North Carolina schools and communities.
In all there are 43 CIU-coordinated Confucius Classrooms active in 10 school districts hosting 30 guest teachers from China. Students who learn Chinese hold a competitive advantage in an increasingly global world.
Why China?
China is North Carolina's second largest trading partner and more than one-third of the world's population speaks Chinese. To learn more about why understanding China is so important to North Carolina students' success in the global economy, click here.
Where are N.C. Confucius Classrooms located?
CIU's network of Confucius Classrooms spans the state. Participating schools, from both urban and rural areas, represent geographic, economic and demographic diversity. Elementary, middle and high schools are included. Ten school districts host Chinese guest teachers through CIU's program in 2013-2014. For a map of host schools, click here.
CIU Confucius Classroom Highlights
Student Exchanges: One example comes to us from Jesse C. Carson High School, part of Rowan-Salisbury County Schools. Building on their third year of hosting a Chinese guest teacher through CIU, a group of students traveled to China to experience another culture and meet new friends at their partner school. Assistant Principal Amie Williams put together this awesome VIDEO.
Faculty and Administrator Exchanges: Wake County educators tell us they learned so much more about Chinese history and culture by seeing and experiencing it for themselves instead of just reading about it in a textbook! A Wake County team was among a group that recently traveled with us to China to jump start school-to-school partnership activities. Check out Wake County's VIDEO.
Funding and Program Partners
Major funding and program support is provided by Hanban, an affiliate of the Chinese Ministry of Education; and College Board. In North Carolina, the State Board of Education and Department of Public Instruction provide policy leadership to expand Chinese language opportunities in schools. Participating host school districts provide a financial commitment to secure a Chinese guest teacher.
How Does it Work?
Confucius Classrooms provide students and educators with transformative international experiences. Together, North Carolina and Chinese partners learn about each other's culture, history and educational systems and work on joint school projects in many subject areas.
Through CIU's program, North Carolina host schools:
• Host a qualified Chinese language teacher from China for three years with partial salary subsidies from the program
• Send school principals and teachers to China to learn about its culture, history, and education system
• Develop a partnership with a school in China
• Engage guest teachers and local teachers in professional development opportunities, focused on improving language instruction
• Receive technical and academic support from the Center's team of education experts
How are Schools Selected?
Participating schools have a demonstrated commitment to global education. By "clustering" the programs within select school districts, students can progress from school to school with continued opportunities to advance their proficiency in Chinese. Only N.C. schools whose superintendent and central office have taken part in Center for International Understanding China programs are eligible to apply.
For More Information
Superintendents and Principals: Please contact Brian White at firstname.lastname@example.com if you are interested in North Carolina Confucius Classrooms.

New York Farm City. Anbeeten.de - Der Gemüseplaner Willkommen. Willkommen auf mundraub.org. Urbanacker.net. MyVillages.org. Mikel uribetxeberria. – shape+colour. Shape+colour mikel uribetxeberria.
January.7.09 by Jeremy 6 Comments I love it when my expectations (and my notions of what belongs where) are shattered. And when it's done by a beautifully-honed image, then that's even more kick ass. New York's Alternative Public Library. "There are 13,659 payphones on NYC sidewalks, even though there are over 17 million cell phones.
Is the pay phone an anachronism or an opportunity…" reads a poster graphic designed by New York architect John Locke. Locke is the architect behind the 'Department of Urban Betterment,' a New York-based interventionist project that is repurposing phone booths into communal libraries or book drops through the installation of hanging bookshelves milled from single sheets of plywood. According to Designboom, Locke's easily replicable shelf hangs securely to the interior of the payphone without the aid of additional fasteners, and, importantly, it leaves the pay phone completely unobstructed and operable. Now miniature public libraries are popping up in Manhattan Valley and Morningside Heights. . Red Bike Planter by wearableplanter.
Do you love riding your bike?
What about plants? Bring your plants on an adventure and let them enjoy some sunshine and fresh air! If you've ever dreamed about attaching a plant to your bike, now you're in luck! Oh I see Red!: Bike Tagging in Melbourne. I walked out of the Melbourne airport with a big stupid smile on my face.
It felt surreal being back in that city again, breathing in fresh, clean air instead of having smog fill up my lungs. I was extremely excited to see friends, to drink good coffee, to sit in quaint little cafes, to get lost in hidden laneways. I really really missed Melbourne. However, as the airport coach reached the city, I felt a slight uneasiness. The city was exactly the same as it was before I left - organised, peaceful, clean.
