Some people have had luck installing outdated versions of browsers/Flash plugins. Obviously not an ideal solution, but it's a possibility.
i tried a lot and it says that it's loading, but when I waited for an hour and it still says its loading.
give it a try.
Got same problem, kongregate chat won't load. Can play normal games, but not the multiplayer ones, and those are the ones I want to play.. not really in the mood to go thru the forums right now, so if someone just told me if there is a fast way to fix it, I would be thankfull.

What colour is the plug at the top right?
it's red. i have tried a couple of things since then, and i managed to play an online game twice, without ever connecting to kong chat thu. I have tried to play o my account on another comp, and it worked all right, so it's definitivly something about my comp. i tried to swich out my firewall but can't access it, apparently cuz of an unknow error. think all this may be virus related.
edit: acctually chat sort of connected, the "connecting to chat" dissapeared, but the chat did't work anyhow, neither did change room and such.
Which browser are you using? Try disabling all add-ons and extensions. Try using a different browser.
ok, it works now, hopefully will stay this way. it was either a virus or firewall related, not sure which as i was working at both the same time, so not sure wich one fixet it. thanks for the response thu.
nothing works for me bleh il send another ticket
same issues there
My plug is red I'm using mozilla 17 and can connect my account except that I can't connect to the chat and up my badge.
don't know if its related but i have the redirect virus on google and can't connect to Gmail either.
I tried the new version of this flash player, called "Shockwave Flash 11.5.502.135". I was indeed able to connect with that, but just for a single day. The plug is red again and the chat is stuck in a permanent loading sequence. It seems the flash player is the only thing we can blame here, i will be patient and wait for the next version, or the one after that, it will work eventually again.
I had the same problem and I was looking trough the forum and found this.
So just press ctrl + number 0 and it will work again. :D I hope, but it definitely worked for me ;) Dont ask why, I dont even know what is this combination xD
Ctrl+0 doesn't do anything. I've had the same problem, followed every step here and still no dice. Damn.
I checked ctrl+0 reset the zoom in firefox and somehow as long I zoomed out, I cant connect to chat, but after I have reset it everything is fine. I can even zoom out again :)

In Drosophila, disturbing the expression of the homeobox gene caudal causes a severe disruption in body segmentation and global body patterning. There are three mouse homologues of Drosophila caudal: Cdx1 (ref. 2), Cdx2 (ref. 3) and Cdx4 (ref. 4). We have generated a null mutation of murine Cdx2 by homologous recombination. Cdx2 homozygote null mutants die between 3.5 and 5.5 days post coitum (d.p.c.). Cdx2 heterozygote mutants exhibit a variable phenotype, with many showing tail abnormalities or stunted growth. Skeletal analysis demonstrates a homeotic shift of vertebrae and compatible malformations of the ribs. Within the first three months of life, 90% of Cdx2 heterozygotes develop multiple intestinal adenomatous polyps, particularly in the proximal colon. These polyps occasionally contain areas of true metaplasia. In contrast to the surrounding intestinal epithelium, the neoplastic cells do not express Cdx2 from the remaining allele. These results suggest that Cdx2 mutation is the primary event in the genesis of some intestinal tumours.

Recipe: Almond Chutney Chicken in Lettuce Roll-Ups
Serves 4
15 minutes prep time
20 minutes resting time
The chicken salad is better if made a day ahead, but don't add the celery and nuts until serving time.
Chicken Salad
1 3-pound roasted chicken
1 medium red onion, cut into 1/4-inch dice
Grated zest of 1 large lemon
Juice of 3 large lemons, or more to taste
2 jalapeño chiles, seeded and minced, or hot sauce to taste
9-ounce jar Major Grey Chutney, cut into bite-size pieces if necessary
1/2 cup mayonnaise
Salt and fresh-ground black pepper to taste
3 large stalks celery, cut into 1/4-inch dice
1 cup whole salted almonds, coarse chopped
Lettuce Cups and Herbs
1 large head Bibb lettuce, leaves separated, washed and dried
1 large bunch fresh basil, washed and dried
1 large bunch fresh coriander, washed and dried
8 radishes, thin sliced
1 large cucumber, peeled, seeded, and sliced into thin rounds or 2-inch sticks
1. Pull the meat from the chicken carcass, discarding the skin and bones. Cut it into bite-size pieces.
2. In a large bowl combine the onion, lemon zest and juice, jalapeño, chutney, mayonnaise, salt, and pepper. Fold in the chicken. Taste the mix for lemon, mayonnaise, and spice, adding more as needed. Let it stand 20 minutes to blend flavors, or refrigerate overnight.
3. To serve, blend the celery and nuts into the chicken mixture. Mound the salad at one side of a big platter. Pile up the lettuce leaves at the other side, and cluster sprigs of herbs in the center. Tuck the radishes and cucumbers next to the herbs.
4. Put a few herb leaves in the bottom of a lettuce "cup," top them with a spoonful of the salad, a slice each of radish and cucumber, and roll up.
Related recipe: Improvising spring rolls: Vietnamese chef Mai Pham does home-style spring rolls with the remnants of a good meal. A little goes a long way with this approach. She softens rounds of rice paper in warm water, piles on fresh mint or basil with the leftovers, and rolls them into neat burrito-style packages. Vietnam's classic spring roll dipping sauce, nuoc cham, is worth making and keeping in the refrigerator. Blend to taste Asian fish sauce (nam pla or nuoc nam), lime juice, sugar, water, minced garlic, and chopped fresh chiles. Imagine dipping into this with a spring roll filled with leftover baked yams, fresh mint, and coriander. Get the idea?
Penelope Makes the Salad
With no cooking involved, this is a wonderfully sly dinner party recipe. Even the mingiest local grocery store chain (mine being the test case) carries Major Grey Chutney and a cooked chicken. The salad is tangy and citrusy, even when just mixed. Of course, the next day the flavors are even more pronounced; I greedily doubled the recipe so we could have the leftovers for lunch. And then those citrus flavors meet the crunch of the cucumbers and radishes, and the sweet, green taste of the basil. One dinner guest waved his basil leaves and said emphatically, "These are the key to the whole enterprise!" And another guest had a lovely way of summing up all the flavors: "This is the brightest food I've ever tasted."

Splashtop Support
posted this on August 25, 2011, 02:20
Here are some tips for users who have reported a "no sound" issue on the iPad side:
For iOS client:
1. This was a known issue on the v126.96.36.199 Mac Streamer. If you are using this older version of Mac Streamer on Mac OS X 10.7.x (Lion), there won't be any sound streamed to the client tablet/phone side; and you might not even be able to connect successfully. So far, this issue was only reported by our users in the Hebrew and Arabic language versions of Splashtop Remote.
This has been fixed in Mac Streamer v184.108.40.206, and you can simply update to that version (or higher) to solve the audio-streaming issue.
If you wish to keep using your older version of the Mac Streamer, try changing the language to English or others, as a temporary work-around.
2. If your iOS on iPad is v4.3, please also view this article from Apple:
Please follow these steps to verify if the mute function was enabled on your iPad:
a. Tap Settings > General.
b. Under Use Side Switch to shown below, select Mute. Then select Lock Rotation again to fix a bug from iOS.
c. Double-click the Home button to display recently used apps.
d. Flick from left to right along the bottom of the screen. A sound control bar will display:
e. If there is a slash across the Speaker button as shown above on the left, tapping it can enable your sound function again.
For Streamer:
If the above tips do not work for your case, please also refer to the following, according to your Streamer OS type (that is, the OS of the machine on which the Streamer is running):
Some XP audio drivers don't support an audio-mixer feature. That's the reason why Streamer can't stream audio to your tablet/phone. Here are some suggestions for you to try:
2. Vista and Win7
3. Mac
I had the same problem until installed sunflower (or whatever it is called). The Imac doesn't mute though.
No sound here too. running xp service pack 3 with Focusrite Saffire LE firewire for sound.
ipad 3 running splashtop 18.104.22.168 sound was working fine but seems to have broken around the same time I updated my imac to 10.7.4 . Im not certain that caused it but I have tried all the steps I could find to do and I cant get sound to stream anymore. Help!
Not sure what happened?
Could you uninstall Splashtop Streamer for Mac and Sound Flower, then re-install Mac Streamer again to see if there's difference?
Hi Jaff, I'm having this problem too. I'm using Lion Splashtop streamer version 126.96.36.199 and VLC 2.0.1 with iPad 3. It connects to my iMac fine, but there is no sound on the iPad.
@Mandy Lupton,
The no sound issue only happened when you are watching movie with VLC or always no sound even playing song only?
Please also confirm:
1.the Soundflower has been installed and properly setting up on your mac:http://support-remote.splashtop.com/entries/514300-why-is-there-no-sound-on-my-mac-or-why-do-i-kept-on-hearing-noise-from-my-mac-s-microphone
2.audio volume on ipad is not muted (instructions mentioned above)
Hi Jaff,
The sound issue only happens with VLC video. The audio works perfectly through iTunes.
I've set the Sunflower settings and Splashtop preferences as per your link but still no audio. I have also made sure that the side switch is on lock rotation, not mute as per instructions above.
Hmmm...what next...?
@Mandy Lupton,
1. Audio playback by iTunes on ipad uses a different way from apps, could you confirm again the audio still works perfectly even through iTunes from Mac? or confirm again by the steps c~e mentioned above to confirm there's no '\' mute-sign on audio symbol?
2.If your mac audio settings of Input and Output are selected as "soundflower(2ch)", please confirm the Audio Input Velume is at maxmum. (some users told us this is the reason they can't hear sound, see pictures in Step2 on this link: http://support-remote.splashtop.com/entries/514300-why-is-there-no-sound-on-my-mac-or-why-do-i-kept-on-hearing-noise-from-my-mac-s-microphone)
Sorry, your case is a little weird, we need more confirmation to know more details about your case.
1. Yes, to clarify, when I operate iTunes on my iMac it works perfectly via Splashtop on the iPad - I can hear the audio on the iPad and the iMac audio automatically mutes as it is supposed to.
2. Yes, the soundflower(2ch) audio settings on the Mac are set at max input volume.
(btw - Splashtop worked for me perfectly on iPad2, I've only had this issue since getting iPad3)
Plus I have confirmed that there is no mute sign on audio symbol (c) -(e) and that lock rotation is selected a la (b)
@Mandy Lupton,
We just found VLC v2.0.1 got a problem on Mac, when you play video or song with it, it'll automatically muted on mac after hours unless you close&re-open VLC. It looks like a compatibility issue between VLC and Soundflower and may be fixed by them in newer version.
Do you find this in your side?
I use Splashtop Remote on an iPad 1 to connect to 2 computers both having Windows XP. Since I, today, upgraded to Splashtop Remote vs.2 and Streamer vs. 2, the sound is no more streamed to my iPad and I also noticed performance issues. With the previous versions of Splashtop apps everything worked almost perfectly and I have been very satisfied with Splashtop.
Is there any workaround for this issue (I use the last version for the sound drivers)? or
Can I go back to Splashtop vs. 1.x?
I've had this issue since I began using splashtop almost a year ago. My mac running os x lion has never successfully redirected the sound to my iPad or iPhone running splashtop remote initially, and continues now with splashtop 2 on my iPad 3. I have followed all the steps listed on this page, as well as those listed on the mac osx server page (soundflower). I love splashtop, but have been going back to logmein because of this failure. I hope someone here can help me! Thank you.
Out of curiosity upgraded to v2 iPad app and v2 streamer but still the same problem. I then tried playing my video using another media player (Quicktime) and Splashtop works fine - the audio switched from iMac to iPad. Looks you are right about VLC :-(
Mandy Lupton, you may be needing to simply specify the output audio device that VLC is using if its working for itunes. You will have to set VLC to output to the soundflower 2ch in order for the audio to stream. See this screenshot http://grab.by/erou
No sound out of windows 7. none of this has helped.

US PresswireMike McCarthy's Packers and Brad Childress' Vikings are heading in different directions.
When someone mentions "Big Mo," I always think of a former baseball slugger. In football, however, it refers to another opaque entity: momentum.
You're hearing that word bandied about regularly as we approach the NFL playoffs, perhaps in no division more than the NFC North. Our two playoff teams are going in opposite directions, and the debate is on as to whether their late-season performances will impact their postseason run. How much importance should we place on Minnesota's 1-3 record in December? What does Green Bay's 3-1 mark over the same stretch indicate?
Conventional wisdom suggests teams playing well at the end of the regular season are more likely to experience postseason success. In this ESPN Insider piece, Bill Barnwell of Football Outsiders terms that notion "a crock," noting examples from both sides of the equation -- hot teams that failed in the playoffs (Atlanta, 2008) and cold teams that marched through the postseason (Indianapolis, 2006).
If you're talking about the ultimate goal of reaching the Super Bowl, however, recent history gives the Packers a much better chance than the Vikings.
I took a somewhat arbitrary look at each of the 18 teams that have reached the nine Super Bowls during this decade, measuring their records in December/January regular-season games. Of that group, 16 had winning records over that time period. The 2006 Colts were the only team that made it after losing more games than they won in December/January.
Take that for what you will. The Vikings and Packers are. To little surprise, the Vikings are downplaying the idea of momentum this week while the Packers are emphasizing the necessity to maintain it.
In Minnesota, entering the playoffs on a winning note is only one of multiple motivations to win Sunday against the New York Giants. Most important, a victory would give the Vikings a chance at a first-round bye in the playoffs, followed by a divisional round game at home.
[+] Enlarge
Rob Grabowski/US PresswireBrett Favre knows the Vikings need to turn things around if they want a deep playoff run.
"You would love to have momentum," Childress said. "With all that said, it's a 12-team tournament. You can cite any number of cases where people have come in with momentum. All the records fall by the wayside at that point. It's a single-elimination tournament. Whether it's a bounce of the ball or how you are feeling or 'we get no respect.' Whatever it is that motivates you at that time, the [playoff] game is going to be won on the football field and regular-season records won't have anything to do with it."
That's true from a mathematical standpoint, but there is a difference between teams that have been on the short end of lucky breaks and teams that are playing poorly. I think we can agree the Vikings are closer to the latter category and need to make tangible improvements in specific areas to render "momentum" moot. As we discussed late Monday night, their pass defense has slipped considerably this month, and their offensive line is struggling. You only have to look at the Vikings' 10-1 start to know those issues are fixable, but even Childress admitted the Vikings "need to keep working to find ourselves and get back to some of the minutia that makes you a good football team."
The Packers, meanwhile, could walk onto the field Sunday in Arizona with no tangible incentive to win. Based on the results of earlier games, their playoff seeding could be locked in. There will be a temptation to protect key players and limit the Cardinals' insight into their schemes in anticipation of a postseason re-match.
[+] Enlarge
Jerry Lai/US PresswireAlthough the Packers may have nothing to play for on Sunday, Aaron Rodgers will likely see plenty of action.
"Our approach is going to be the same for this week as it has been for the first 15," McCarthy told reporters in Green Bay. "It's important for us to continue the way we have been playing the last seven weeks, and that's really the message to the football team. … We're not in this situation to back off. It's important for us to continue our style of play. … I think routine in your preparation and your approach is a big part of your success, so we're going to go out there and our goal is to go 11-5."
The true test will be whether McCarthy plays his starters for the entire game if the outcome has no postseason implication. Everyone has a thought on momentum, but I think Minnesota linebacker Ben Leber put it best.
"Momentum is important," Leber said. "It's not everything."
We'll soon find out.

VCS Mining
History of Mining in Haiti
The Spanish exploited gold in Haiti in the 15th and 16th centuries. Copper and gold occurrences have been revealed over time, however, it was not until the 20th century that the mining industry began to prosper.
1957 to 1982 — Reynolds Haitian Mines Metals Inc. exploited bauxite in Miragoane at an annual rate of 600,000 tons.
1960 to 1971 — SEDREN S.A. (Canada) exploited copper in Mémé. 1.5 million tons at 2% copper were extracted in a copper skarn.
1970's — The United Nations performed a study which specified the occurrences of copper and gold.
1980's — A practicability study was completed on the Douvray property. Deposits measured were determined to be sub-economic given the price of copper.
1995 — St. Genevieve Haiti signs the first Convention Miniere with the Haitian government for mining rights until 2025, which is the only convention ever signed in Haiti.
1990 to 2000 — Mining was put on hold due to political issues.
2005 — Convention Miniere was published in an official legal journal.
2007 — A company by the name of SIMACT, a group of Haitian investors, invested heavily in the project along with the existing companies.
2008 — A company named Alliance Copper Gold, a group of mining professionals, invested in that same project.
2008 — St. Genevieve another company from Canada.
2009 — Eurasian Minerals and Newmont Mining were granted 27 permits in north-east Haiti in addition to the 5 licenses they already owned and existing Newmont permits. They acquired the Grand Bois Land, host to a non-compliant NI43-101 gold resource with development potential and possible copper-gold porphyry system at depth.

From locating and processing online and offline content, and indexing it, to its presentation, monetization and delivery, it unlocks the true value of rich media and creates new opportunities for monetization.
To achieve this, blinkx CORE first distills video into its basic building blocks and then processes each component in the method most effective to the medium: audio is processed with speech recognition technology; images are understood using visual analysis technology; and metatags are indexed and extracted by distributed visual spiders.
Once it has collected the most comprehensive, minutely accurate data possible on the video, the CORE engine transforms the raw data into useful information by recognizing ideas and themes within the video.
Using a unique combination of Shannon's Information Theory and Bayesian Inference, blinkx CORE applies a probabilistic pattern matching process to the problem of concept matching. This enables computers to infer meaning within pieces of video and audio content, and reason upon the nature of that meaning in an unstructured way, performing the kinds of organizational, sorting and discovery tasks that today are the domain of manual, human processes. Portions of the blinkx CORE engine include technology used under license from Autonomy.
This deep, granular understanding of rich media enables blinkx to process, present, monetize and deliver video and audio content in unique ways, and to capitalize on the true potential of today's Four Screen world.

I have been working at blinkx full-time (more than a year)
ProsGreat working environment with flexible work life balance, which is good for my family life. Good pay and benefits. I really feel part of the team, and it was clear my work is appreciated and my hard efforts do go rewarded.
I have found my team leaders/management to be both responsive and helpful. So am not sure why so many reviews here are so negative.
Blinkx has many exciting products and is being well lead by senior management (even if the current mood of investors is very negative towards the company, it is not so for those of us working here).ConsExpect employees to work hard. So if this is not you then you may find life hard.
Advice to ManagementAdviceKeep up the good work. I expect our hard work will bear fruit shortly.

Application DetailsI applied online. The process took 3 weeks – interviewed at blinkx.
Interview DetailsThe whole process was a little much. I had a total of 5 interviews. Two were phone interviews, and 3 in person interviews. For a entry level position, I feel like this was a little overkill. The questions and interview process was very basic. Nothing hard. The usual questions. They took about two weeks after my final interview to let me know I did not get the job. I feel that was a little unprofessional. After having 5 interviews, one should not have to wait two weeks to hear back.

We rely on our partner organizations, the Center for Responsive Politics and the National Institute on Money in State Politics, to uniquely identify individuals' campaign finance and lobbying activity. If data appears to be missing, it may be that they have not identified all influence activity for this individual. If the data is completely different than you expected, it may be that you're looking at a different person with the same name.
In these cases, we suggest searching the raw records in the campaign finance Data section, which provides extra information about each contribution, such as the donor's city, state and employer. This information should allow you to judge for yourself if the contribution came from the person for whom you searched.

MattFebruary 1999 |
OK, people. Minus the raucous applauding and cheering that I know isn't there, this is my first and possibly last article....
Hopefully as you noticed from the link, I am Matt, I'm 16 and an Aussie. That's just the country I come from though. I'll be happy as long as after having read this I can remove myself as far from the "Crocodile Dundee" image as possible. I can't speak for the other 18 million people here though. Oh, another thing. My name really is Matt. Not being a huge Tom Cruise fan, there's no "Mission: Impossible" type hi-jinks going on here. Much like the first episode of the X-Files, the following story is "inspired by actual documented accounts" and any resemblance to any persons living or dead is completely intended. All names etc. are real (have I made my point yet?)
So, with that having been said, why not start?
OK, maybe the title's a little brief. It relates to love, and while it affects gay and straight people the same in the end, it is I feel the hardest thing about being gay.
What is being gay? At it's simplest form, being sexually attracted to people of the same gender. What is the purpose of sexual attraction? Unless anyone disagrees with me, it is to become attracted to the person you eventually fall in love with. Now, assuming that gay people aren't only attracted to other gay people, working from that attraction upwards, I make it possible for you to fall in love with a straight person of your gender, especially if you aren't sure which way they go. This is a relationship that will one way or another hurt you. It can turn out a variety of ways, and I'm sure there's plenty, but now, without making this sound like a whinge, the following is one of those ways:
When at school, and you realise you like someone, it either ends up fairytale like you're friends or something and one day you're over at their place and you feel this moment of heat and closeness and you kiss, or like others, you do everything humanly possible to get to know the target of your attraction whilst still appearing to be doing things normally, and find out that not only are they the cutest person in the planet, but also the kindest, nicest and having the most in common with you too. Eventually, after they start hanging around with you, standing around just wanting to hold them becomes unbearable, so you come out. They turn out to be straight, and while they insist they're OK with you and you're still friends, you both end up drifting apart such that between the both of you you can't even stand, one way or another, being in the same place without talking.
Well, in case you couldn't tell, that's my story. The guy's name's Andrew, he's 14 and in year 9 at my school. For those of you who personally recognise that story in terms of how perfect that person was and/or those who care, his nickname amongst my group was "Little Matt" we are that alike.
What is the point of making this, much to my own chagrin, another of the "this is my life" columns rather than addressing a real issue? Basically so I could say give me all the religious persecution etc, just so long as I knew that at the end of the day, when things got tough, Andrew's arms would be there waiting for me, and in him, all my troubles would melt away.
Now, seeing that here now written down, I envisage a lot of frowns on people's faces, ie those who have life hard because of the things I have just wished upon myself. Well, you have the chance to condemn me to any particular place of eternal damnation later. But for now, let me tell you that the reason I would wish those things upon myself is because I don't know what any of them are like. I have achieved (in my mind anyway) a reasonable balance in most areas, except for the one I am writing about now. I also, though, take what I wish for very seriously. Unless I didn't believe what I just wrote, I wouldn't have left it there. So Greater Deity A, please read and take notice.
The same people to whom I directed the last paragraph probably now think I'm crazy. The only reason I accept this is because it is meant as an indicator of my feelings for Andrew.
Believe it or not, this is where I get to the point of the point. Above, I acknowledged that love affects gay and straight alike, but here my friends, is the difference. Imagine for a second the person I had been talking about was named Andrea instead. Now, I'm definitely not the cutest guy in the world, but in my opinion, based on the friendship we had in reality, my looks would be the only thing stopping me and Andrea from being like the closest ever. True, she could have turned me away anyway, but even in that case, there's still plenty of girls in the world.....
Back to reality. Andrew with a W is straight, and damn happy to be so. And what, one way or another, stopped us from being friends? The fact I was gay. Just for another second, looking past the fact he's the perfect guy, unlike with Andrea, there's not exactly plenty of other guys in the world. As you should all know, being gay automatically rules out 9/10 guys from being compatible, and given how special Andrew was, how hard is it finding a 1/1,000,000 person in a 1/10 population?
It's so near impossible that it's hard to see sometimes. And that, finally, my dear readers, is why being gay is the absolute pits (for want of a more forceful word). No amount of community awareness or well written coming out books can change that Fact. Something as simple but special as a childhood sweetheart is infinitely elusive for a lot of us.
As I leave my article now, I beg those of you at junior or full high school who have found their own Andrew to make sure the first opportunity you get you hug them until neither of you can breathe, knowing how lucky you are to be alive. Those of you who could change the names and still make this their story, tonight I will think of us all walking our plane of life, feeling alone. If, however, you fit that category and you still wake up in the morning feeling the sun shines especially for you, I take my hat off to you. That was a belief I lost a long time ago.

The cartoon I posted on Tuesday jokes about a Fantasy Research League, and ChemJobber's link our way (thanks, btw) muses about how high Phil Baran would be drafted in such a League.
How cool would it be to actually have a Fantasy Research League?! What would a Fantasy Research League look like?
You'd have to have a fantasy draft, of course. In fantasy sports leagues, you have to fill a certain number of positions on the team (quaterback, wide receiver, etc., for American football; pitcher, shortstop for baseball…). Would you fill your Fantasy Research team by discipline? You'd have to have an organic chemist, an inorganic chemist, a biochemist? What about cross discipline researchers? Would that be like the wide receiver/running back/flex position in football?
How would you award points? Sheer publication rate only? Some multiplier based on the impact factor of the journal? I think there should be some kind of points awarded for times cited. That would be awesome, cuz then you wouldn't have to only draft current chemists. Maybe one of the positions would be 'Legacy Chemist' so I can draft Woodward, or H. C. Brown, or something.
How long would the 'season' be? How long would each individual head-to-head match-up last?
Here's my proposal for the Fantasy Research League!!! I put it together in about 20 minutes, so I'm probably off on some of the league rules. Where am I wrong? What should be tweaked?
Would nuclear chemists be drafted into inorganic position? I like the Institution position. This would be like drafting a defense in football. Draft Scripps or Berkeley or Harvard, and any paper from that institution gives you points. Note the Flex Chemist. This is where the cross-discipline chemists live. Any paper is an in-discipline paper and not subject to the publishing-out-of-discipline penalty.
Did I miss any obvious scoring situations? A 2 year season is a LONG season. Would there be a better way to structure the season given the time it takes to bring a project through to publication. I think scores would have the potential to end up being pretty massive, if you get the right articles in the right journals with the right impact factors
Ok, now let's let the speculation begin! Who are your top draft picks at each position? Who's the number one overall draft pick?

Man Pays Mom's $.10 Parking Ticket 57 Years After It Was Issued. Pentagon Will Help Families Travel to Dover. Department of Defense, via thememoryhole.org/Associated PressAn undated photograph released by the U.S.
Department of Defense shows the flag-draped coffins of U.S. war casualties arriving at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware. Updated | March 19 Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates said today that the Pentagon would pay for families to travel to Dover Air Force Base in Delaware if they want to be present when the body or remains of a loved one is returned from war. Mr. Gates announced last month that the Pentagon was reversing its longstanding policy of barring media coverage during the repatriation of fallen soldiers at Dover. Gods all bless, Veterans. The ones who are and the ones who have gone before.
Today and every day I think of you, what you are doing, what you have done, what you have been, what you have built, what you endure, what you represent, the good that so many of you have done and continue to do, the pain that so many of you have borne and continue to bear, the guilt and sorrow that are poor reparations for going to do what you were told was right and proper. Whoever you are, whatever your sex and race and sexual orientation, wherever you've served, whatever is laid to your account, I wish you an end to pain, good years on this earth, full nights of real sleep without dreams, and the comradeship of those who learned the same truths as you. I wish you respect from your community, service from the government that promised to help you in return for hard work at thankless jobs, and promises kept.

After some more philosophical contemplation on my understanding and beliefs of the universe (which I like to add to regularly), I have come to an interesting conclusion on the workings of the universe. I thought a bit about atheism vs. theism and the existence of a creating (or at least influential)entity, and I realized that there is no logical reason to believe that a god does not exist.
Firstly, there is the logical contradiction of omnipotence that many people point out, which is the question of whether or not a god would be able to create a boulder so large that even he himself couldn't lift it. Obviously this one would be irrelevant in the case of an omnipotent, omnipresent being, because such a being could manifest itself in any form with any strength. Therefore, it could very simply create any boulder and manifest itself as a being which does not have enough strength to lift it. If it counts as still possible, because the god could change the strength of its given manifestation, as well as the gravity controling the rock, the question is still irrelevant because any form that the being could possess would only be a lifeless puppet conjured and controlled by the deity, not an autonomous creature in itself. A boulder cannot be compared to the strength of a possible omnipotent entity, because said entity has no physical strength.
There's also the argument of evolution being a direct disproof of a creator. This can't be rationally disproven, there's more than enough evidence to know this, but that does not mean it conflicts with the existence of a god. Natural selection could be intentional; certain organisms could be designed to fail, so the species could adapt, in a way that fits the logic that exists within the universe. And evolution would exist because either parts of the universe would be left alone (or made to seem like it is), which would make some parts change, and the species must change with that, and with the evolution of other species.
I could think of more points to argue here, but this is meant to be more of a discussion than anything. What are your thoughts? I know we have both theists and atheists here (as well as agnostics, I believe), so let's see what happens in the comments.
(Also, I am not commiting to the idea of logical theism; I am simply interested in how this discussion will turn out. Don't pay attention to these questions if you would rather focus on the larger issue of theism vs. atheism. Another note is that I am not an expert on philosophy. These are simply the most recent conclusions I've come to on my own thinking. I know some people here are more educated on the issue, and have read many books on the philosphy of atheism, so don't take this as what I believe to be the truth.)
I'll go ahead and throw out some hypothetical questions you could start with, if you want, asside from, of course, the question of whether or not theism is logically possible. I'm going to ignore the idea or solipsism here.
Would a god have to follow the logic it created? Did it create the logic and ban himself from ever breaking it?
Would it have to, or be uncontrollably compelled to, constantly control everything that exists, or could it let things go to work by themselves?
Assuming the muliple universe theory is true, would this being have power over other universes, or would its power be confined to this one? (This is sort of an extention of the second question.) If it isn't fully omnipotent, would it still be considered a god, or just a very strong influence?
Would a deity be a conscious being, a complex invisible cognition, or would it be an unconscious, passive force of unstopping creation existing outside the universe, as Lao-tzu suggested?
Remember: keep an open mind. Be willing to accept, or at least recognize any valid, justified argument, and do not attack any belief. This is meant to be a friendly philosophical discussion, not an argument. If you are very attached to and emotional about your personal beliefs, it is probably best not to join in.
Well, there are plenty of logical reasons to deny the existence of any gods. You really should read Richard Dawkins' book The God Delusion because it's a great book. It proposes several hypotheses to explain how the earth was created, one of the cooler ones being that the chemicals expelled from the trillions of stars in our galaxy slowly created earth over the course of billions and billions of years.
Your question of the omnipotence of any gods is interesting, but it doesn't really warrant an answer for me, since the idea that an intangible entity decided to create us is...really too improbable to consider, in my opinion. There's also the major issue of infinite regress: who created the gods? How did they come into being? Something cannot be created from nothing. It's a scientific principle.
Your hypothetical questions are also interesting. The second question you threw out, I think, is what a lot of theists argue about: is God influential, or does he allow the earth to simply do its thing? Voltaire's idea of God was the latter, and if I did believe in God, I would have to agree with Voltaire. The idea that God can control every aspect of every person's life when there are so many people on earth, plus controlling nature, plus the entirety of the universe, seems too impossible, even if we go with the notion that God's power is "unlimited." Plus I would think that even a god as controlling and demanding and harsh as the Christian God would leave a little wiggle room for humanity's free will.
The closest thing to God that I pay attention to is nature. I felt something spiritual when I was in Colorado, for example, surrounded by nothing but pure, untainted nature. And I think there is a spirituality that comes with nature, or maybe there really is this Buddhist idea of interconnectedness: everything in the world is connected. I like contemplating a lot of the spiritual stuff, not the religious, which involves the influence of an actual deity.
But yeah, the reason why a universe would be created by such a being is where I can't think of anything.
But I think the infinite regress is kind of irrelevant, since it's impossible for anything to exist without an infinite regress. Existence itself is an infinite regress. Lao-tzu, who was a very, very smart person, had a kind of god with limited power which manifested itself in nonexistence, but constantly created existence at all times, and was omnipresent throughout the whole cosmos, as a balance to it. He called this the Tao, and believed that everything is a manifestation of it, and will return to the same force at death, and will again manifest ourselves in everything.
He sort of had a form of reincarnation that's more like your natural interconnectedness thing. We are all the Tao and we will live forever as one being that creates and is part of all matter and energy. So that's a philosophy I'm very fond of. This idea I wrote about in the journal is sort of an expansion of that into "what if there was something like the Tao, except it could actually control that which it was manifesting itself as".
That's what my concept of a god is, basically. I've wanted to do some research on theistic religions to see if any other ones had a similar idea of a deity.
I don't think this is possible. More than one omnipotent being would not work. They would have to restrict each other's powers simply by existing, and that would just make logic explode.
The burden of proof in cases like this would fall to believers. Atheists have no reason to prove something doesn't exist to make their case stronger.
Evolution doesn't directly disprove a creator, since that isn't its goal. And many religious people can make these two things co-exist without any problem (of course, once you're OK with talking snaked, killing your kids, and living inside of whales, you've really shown your malleability in the face of logic).
"I am living this life as lovingly as I can be as flawed as I am." - Brandon Lacy Campos
Just a general god. I refuse to disbelieve in something without proof that it doesn't exist. I can't rationally believe in it either without proof. For now I'm a Taoist. I do believe in a sort of a god, but I can't be sure whether it's an actual deity or just an invisible abstract force that balances the existent universe that it maifests itself in.
You might find this an interesting read( I thought it was interesting, but left me with more questions than answers) ' On the Origin of the World ', search google for the Nag Hammadi library. It's essentially a large amount of scriptures found in a cave in Egypt. This particular document was describing the origin of God( Or at least what is perceived to be God) and the hierarchy of Heaven itself. There are omissions in the translation and some missing lines. I didn't feel it proved anything, but it was interesting to read.
In the first paragraph of your (quite interesting) musings:
"...I realized that there is no logical reason to believe that a god does not exist."
Wouldn't it be more productive to start by stating the reasons you feel a god (or a hierarchy of omnipotent deities) is needed?
Then... we'll see if there exists "logic" that would undermine the need for such belief...
Ponder this: Doesn't that belief (quoted above) also imply that there is no logical reason to suppose that anything you can imagine can also not exist... some time... some place?
Also... you've expressed the premise as a double negative. Would you stand by the assertion if both the "no" and the "not" were removed?
as long as it's realistic and a counterexample hasn't been asserted. However, that's what philosophical theories are based on. No philosophical ideas at all would exist with the question you've asked. So the real question is why haven't you felt the need to ask this on my many journals about nihilism and solipsism?
And there is sort of reason to believe in a binding force, by default. There is no possible explanation of where life comes from an goes, what is outide the universe, and where energy originally comes from without one, so that's already more reason to assume it's at least probable than some other philosophies I've written about on here. The question of whether or not it would be conscious or powerful is the much more ambiguous one.
Then there's the quesiton of whether or not a passive, unconscious force like this could even be called a deity.

221st General Assembly (2014)
The Presbytery of Minnesota Valleys
The Presbytery of Minnesota Valleys serves Christ in a rural region. Generations ago, some Presbyterian churches were the only English-speaking congregations in this vicinity: most immigrants who settled the fertile lands spoke German, Swedish, or Norwegian. Today, residents of these small towns enjoy their rural lifestyle, but concerns grow as young adults leave for job opportunities in the Twin Cities.
A new wave of immigration is giving congregations hope. Migrants from South Sudan have chosen several small towns in the presbytery as their new home. The presbytery is working with congregations and immigrant groups to discern and fund ministries with their new neighbors in Christ.
For example, Camp Presbyterian Clearwater Forest hosted a group of young South Sudanese American campers. Camp staff were unfamiliar with the group's culture and concerned that they may not be able to connect and give them the camp experience they deserved. Their apprehension was assuaged the moment the kids stepped off the bus. The South Sudanese children brought more energy to the games, boating, and worship than the staff had ever encountered.
It was certainly a new experience for everyone involved. Despite a few misunderstandings, the campers and staff left with exhausted bodies, renewed spirits, and shared memories that will be treasured forever.
The Presbytery of Minnesota Valleys is home to 7,942 members of 62 congregations.
—Rev. Andrew Davis, Union Street Presbyterian, St. Peter, Minnesota; Michael Peterson, counselor, Presbyterian Clearwater Forest
Let us join in prayer for:
Presbytery Staff
Rev. Pamela Prouty, stated clerk.
Karen Lange, administrative assistant
Virginia Molitor, finance, website maintenance, general office
D. J. Jerimiasson, executive director, Clearwater Forest

Let us pray
God of all peoples, grant us your Spirit as you give us new opportunities for ministry. We pray that you will continue to transform our communities as you mold us into your people. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen.

text: I have 2006 V with 6 K miles, no racing or abuse (except for an occasional burnout to test for wheel hop). Nice and quiet at work parking lot tonight with windows down. I noticed backing up slowly or going forward in first, when I push in the clutch I hear a very light sort of double "thunk-thunk" coming right from where I believe the clutch lives. In the old days we would have said "throwout bearing is going," but I doubt with this history and low mileage that is the case. Is there anything adjustable at all in the clutch assembly? This is definetly my weak point-haven't driven anything with a clutch except motorcycles in a long time. Any thoughts or ideas appreciated.

I am a Reader (Associate Professor) with the Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit, part of the Centre for Computational Statistics and Machine Learning at UCL. A short biography.
My current research focus is on using kernel methods to reveal properties and relations in data. A first application is in measuring distances between probability distributions. These distances can be used to determine strength of dependence, for example in measuring how strongly two bodies of text in different languages are related; testing for similarities in two datasets, which can be used in attribute matching for databases (that is, automatically finding which fields of two databases correspond); and testing for conditional dependence, which is useful in detecting redundant variables that carry no additional predictive information, given the variables already observed. I am also working on applications of kernel methods to inference in graphical models, where the relations between variables are learned directly from training data: applications include cross-language document retrieval, depth prediction from still images, and protein configuration prediction.

Apple bans iOS game where you punish North Korean traitors by executing them
Posted By Enrique Manalang On August 9, 2013 @ 5:53 AM In Android,iOS | 2 Comments
Apple has banned Joyful Executions, a game where you play as the commander of a North Korean firing squad.
The goal is to "process endless waves of various enemies of the state to keep the Divine Leader happy," which basically means you execute defenseless "traitors" via firing squad. According to the studio, 8-Bit Underpants, it is intended to be "a parody game on North Korean propaganda for children and a satire on our willingness to accept morally questionable acts through gamification."
A parody game, I can totally see and understand. But a game meant for children? Not so much. Just look at how ridiculously violent it can get:
Apple has banned the game for containing "excessively objectionable or crude content," and has reportedly not given its developer advice on how he can alter the game to get it accepted into the App Store. The developer has instead created a much tamer version called Little Girls Training Edition [2] that replaces the humans with dummies and the blood with urine. He has no plans of submitting the altered version to Apple and is instead making it available on Android sometime later this month.
Joyful Executions, however, is available right now on the Google Play Store for free [3].

@anon924449: You have a point. I was bullied too, and I know of other cases where all the "intervention" in the world didn't help. Public humiliation could be helpful, but this is a problem the parents probably helped create, at least in part, and it's their responsibility to stop it.
However, as my dad, who was a teacher, could tell you, until you *inconvenience* the parents, it won't stop. Get into their personal time or their pocketbooks and things will change. My city's school system implemented a "no fight" policy where *any* students over sixth grade (12 and up, roughly) caught fighting were taken to the police station in handcuffs and their parent/legal guardian had to come and get them. Fights dropped to nearly zero. Imagine that! As soon as mama and daddy had to go get junior at the police station, and take off work to do it, the situation changed. They couldn't be leaving work every day to haul junior out of the pokey, so they insisted the behavior improve. And it did. Bullying stopped, too, or was greatly diminished, since a lot of victimized kids felt it well worth handcuffs to get a bully taken care of.
Alternatively, my parents told me they didn't want me fighting at any time, but if I was forced to do it, to make sure I hurt the bully as badly as I could, up to and including a trip to the ER. I took them at their word, and after one or two confrontations, the bullying *stopped.* I seriously intended to inflict as much harm as I could, and that tends to discourage bullies.
I also strongly encourage any child who is being bullied to take martial arts classes, if at all possible. This will instill confidence, which helps prevent bullying in the first place, and also gives the child mental and physical tools to protect himself. Sometimes, just knowing that "Johnny takes karate" is enough to take care of the situation. Many martial arts schools also offer anti-bullying programs for students and non-students. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Thai Whiskey
The Thais love their whiskey (laew), but the name whiskey also covers drinks that are made of mollasses (Rum).
Yaa Dong is the REAL Thai Whiskey! This is a Thai Herbal Whiskey. Though many Thai Whiskeys have something added this one is not only a recreational drink but directed as a cure for specific ailments. The law is hazy as to whether Yaa Dong is legal simply because it has mystery additives but usually a blind eye is turned to its public sale.
Lao Khao is distilled from rice beer (Sahtoe) and so is a true Thai Whiskey albeit clear & colourless and with a completely different taste to Scotch. It is sold like most alcohol in the local corner shop & usually in a brown bottle. You can be pretty sure that the Lao Khao bought there is reasonably safe. Not so with the home produced product which may have less than desirable effects.
It's not unusual today to see Lao Khao today with a snake or two or perhaps a scorpion pickled in the bottle along with a Ginseng root. Marketed with names like 'Cobra Whiskey' It is more of a product for the tourist market... something to take home with you.
Sang Som though commonly called 'Thai Whiskey' is not a whiskey at all but a rum. It has been distilled from sugar cane like all rums. Most all of 7/11's stock it & it would likely be the first bottle handed to you if you asked for Thai Whiskey.
Sangthip is yet another Rum but generally called a Whiskey. There are those who say it is just Sangsom with a different label on the bottle.
Mekhong could be considered something of a hybrid Whiskey/Rum. It has a mollasses & a rice source.

A Conversation on LGBT Health
Join us for a Conversation on LGBT Health with Marguerite Salazar, Regional Director of the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services!
In the summer of 2011, One Colorado Education Fund invested in a comprehensive health study (generously underwritten by Denver Health) to discover and document the state of LGBT health and wellness in Colorado. And now, after months of data analysis, we're ready to share the results of our study with you.
Whether you participated in a health dialogue in your town, completed our online survey, or want to know more about LGBT health --- this event is for you! We'll have a welcome from Marguerite Salazar, Regional Director of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services; then we'll dive into the data.
We'll discuss where in the state LGBT people feel safe coming out to their doctor, what barriers LGBT people (especially transgender Coloradans) face when trying to access care, and how LGBT people are treated when they do see a provider.
Everyone should have access to affordable, quality care from understanding, compassionate professionals. Make this a reality in Colorado --- join us to get the facts and help us start making advances toward health equality!

We've covered that we want are hips to lead our hands and we don't want to start our swing by pulling with are arms, but clearly you can't hit without the use of your arms and hands. So what's the role of our arms and hands as we swing the bat? Let's begin with the arms and then we'll move to the hands. I would like you to think of the swing as your lower body and hips first, then your arms, and finally your hands. That's the order that we want things to fire.
Lower Arm: The lower arm has two distinct jobs that I want you to understand and work on.
Upper Arm: The upper arm is important in developing shoulder tilt and keeping your swing short. The key with the upper arm is to have your elbow come through close to your body. So as you begin your swing your back elbow should also begin to tuck in near your body. By keeping your elbow close to your body, the bat will take the shortest path to the ball which will result in a quicker swing.
Lower Hand: Much like the lower arm, the lower hand is used to guide the bat. As the arms come forward we want the lower hand to aid in keeping the knob of the bat pointed toward the baseball. This is important in developing "bat lag". Bat lag is essential for a quick and powerful swing. As the arms come forward the bat head is left behind until the last possible instance, then it's propelled forward by the hands. This creates a tremendous amount of bat speed which will translate into power. You can't get the benefit of that bat speed if your lower hand doesn't guide the knob of that bat towards the path of the ball, keeping the bat head back. In the images below you see Joe Mauer and Justin Hamilton displaying good bat lag as they are beginning to fire their hands to deliver the bat head to the ball. I love these images because with the ball in view you can see how long they have left the bat head back before firing the hands at the last moment before contact.
Upper Hand: The upper hand is used to deliver the bat head to the ball. As the arms come forward and the bat head is left behind, it's the top hand that is used to snap the bat head forward just before contact. In the next image you see two photos of Albert Pujols who in the first image has his bat head trailing behind and in the second image is in the process of firing his hands to deliver the bat head to the ball.
