Trail Designs Caldera Keg-F or H? Not sure which one to buy. But I am going to buy one of the two designs. I have had one vote for the H. I like most of its features a bit better. However, it says it does 1.5 cups of water and I ne... |

Its been decided, to replace the "black Hole" map on Efencea before maps get chosen, I am going to make a digital painting of an Epic battle between two bosses from each faction. But Which? The choice will be decided by popular vote. The top voted Bosses from each faction will be drawn out in full detail on the Log In screen.
If you have no idea what Efencea is about, I recommend you head over and play it. Its a Two player game, so you might need to grab a buddy.
I will begin the drawing Friday Morning, so, CAST YOUR VOTES!
You could probably find some examples of my work in my old blog:

Crist Suspends Michelle Spence-Jones, Again
Categories: Politicks
Miami city Commissioner Spence-Jones turned herself in on November 13 on charges that she siphoned $50,000 of county money to a family business. Crist swiftly suspended her, setting up Tuesday's special election to fill the vacant seat.
Spence-Jones, who wasn't technically outlawed from running, proved victorious despite statements from the gov that he'd suspend her again on re-election. Today he sent out an executive order re-suspending her once she is sworn in.
Sigh. At the end of all of this, it's going to cost taxpayers a whole lot more than the $50,000 Spence-Jones is accused of stealing.

4 May 2004
URBAN SONGSTRESS JAMELIA returns to her home town to headline a one-off gig at Aston University's May Ball, Friday 7 May.
Having signed a record deal at the tender age of 15 the career of Birmingham-born Jamelia has soared.
Her second album, Thank You, debuted at number 4. It includes See It In A Boy's Eyes, written for Jamelia by Coldplay's Chris Martin, which will be released as the next single in July.
The album's title track is currently riding high in the Top 40 following on from the success of Superstar, which reached number 1 in charts around the world.
Jamelia follows in the footsteps of other successful R&B-influenced singers to have played Aston's May Ball, including Miss Dynamite and Big Brovaz over the last couple of years.
Jamelia heads a list of performers that gather together at Aston to help celebrate its becoming a university in 1966.
Other attractions at the city-based university are Fame Academy runner-up, Alistair Griffin; acronym-tastic girl band, Clea (Chloe, Lynsey, Emma and Aimee); and self-confessed rock gods, Daddy Delux, a Birmingham-based band that has just released its debut album, Pimprock.
The only sad news about Aston's May Ball is that it is the last time Sir Adrian Cadbury will attend as the University's Chancellor. Having served for 25 years Sir Adrian will stand down in August and will be succeeded by the incoming Chancellor, Sir Michael Bett.
Ticket information for the May Ball from Chrissie Govette: 0121 359 3611

i had a an infection i believe around my prostate area, when i had sex and ejaculated sometimes i would feel pain deep up near my prostate had it for 2 years. Doctor prescribe this drug i took 2 pills a day for 5 days that resolved the problem. I think it was a strong dose as i could feel it in my body, i stop taking it after 5 days of the 30 days and no more pain.
I was put on this for preventative measures after having a Nexplanon insertion. I was put on the generic form of Bactrim Ds 800-160 Tab C. I usually tolerate medicine really well, usually with no side effects at all. Ive been on many different antibiotics but this medication has made me feel extreme nausea since the first day I took it. I have one pill left and I'll be happy when I finish this medication.
I was being treated for a sinus infection which included swollen nasal tissues, phlegm, stuff nose, and the most hardest time to breath. My doctor gave me this Rx, twice a day, MucinexDM twice a day and a nasal aerosol Zetonna (I've never been on that before). I tolerated all the meds well, and still took my Vitamin D, Zyertic allergy pill and calcium pills at night. I did find that the Zetonna was working better for me at night since my nose felt worse at night. What I did notice is that the Rx SMZ,TMP made me lose my appetite; which is not a big deal. I wasn't hungry during the day or even getting up in the morning. A little bit of diarrhea, slight upset stomach. After eating some greek yogurt that seemed to help with the diarrhea. So far this combo of meds is working well. I have no insurance.
It cleared my skin up quickly. Though I am not totally clean of the infection, my skin and boils have gone away but a couple, and my skin looks normal now.
I have chronic bronchitis with much mucus and phlem , cough etc. I was prescribed Cipro (3 times) and it didn't help, then Avalalox (didn't help) and now I'm getting better thanks to this drug. Note: all of the rx's I was prescribed included being on prednisone at the same time. Most of my mucis is gone and my breathing has improved dramatically. I was prescribed this for 10 days and by the 4th day I was noticing a pleasant change in my breathing and congestion.
For MRSA, Aug 2012, SMZ/TMP DS 800-160, PRESCRIBED by PCP, 1 tablet 2 times a day for 5 days. Strong side effects of nausea, headache, body and muscle pains, weakness, shallow breathing, racing pulse, change in rate & flow of urine and very, very weak. Lost all appetite, except for ice cream sandwiches, which I haven't had in years. But it was creamy and eased my queasiness.
I had a nasty cartilage ear infection it was in my blood stream. This medicine work that is for sure but it did have some side effects: i can't sleep well and i was very dizzy and a little nausea and my ear now feels numb (that may be due to another medication))otherwise the problem was fixed and i would recommend it. Just know that it does have side effects.
I had a quickly spreading skin infection and had to take this and another antibiotic. It really worked well to stop the infection from spreading and by the third day there was only a localized swelling. I lasted eight days before the side effects stopped me from finishing the coarse. Nausea and stomach pain, joint aches, feeling very tired and dizzy, panting if I have to walk anywhere. The wound has mostly healed, and even though it has been two days since I stopped, I still feel ill. It's worth it, but not by much.
My mother took this medicine after she had skin cancer surgery. she felt fine before surgery. She felt awful after taking this medicine. She felt weak and lost her appetite. She couldn't sleep. She stopped taking the medicine after two times. She ended up going to the doctor a week later. They put her in the hospital for a week because she had an irregular heartbeat. All in all, it took several weeks to regain health after two doses of this medicine.
Most horrible medicine ever! I had extreme anxiety, muscle pain and weakness, heart palpitations, and panic attacks. I never an antibiotic would do this. And it's not in any of the side effects I had to read blogs to find I wasn't the only one with this problem.

So again if you're anywhere near the neighborhood pweeees drop by.
This time we'll be selling Hi-res hi quality prints for all you Grim tale and Bell fans. Prints I made myself for everybody including a never before seen "Bell-looking-so-cute-that-you'll-have-to-buy-one-or-she'll-kill-you" artwork.
Only the genuine thing cause I've been informed about the last convention that someone was going around selling ppgd prints and telling people he was bleedman, so yeah if you meet someone at the convention claiming to be bleedman watch out! It's a ripoff!!! I am no where near the convention, just a million miles away.

Let us know something about smoking and vaporization and then find how vaporization is better than smoking. Smoking is one of the oldest methods where several substances or other compounds present in the herbs are released, so that it can be taken by the human body by inhalation. However, as years passed by, people came to know about the risks that have to be taken by smoking and the danger that it can lead to, as it is proven scientifically. This is the reason why so many new methods have been created by which the nutrients and the active materials are unleashed, instead of the harmful smoking. Of all the new methods known, vaporization is the best.
Vaporizing gives you better effect compared to that of smoking. One of the main reasons why smoking is risky is that the herbs are burnt by combustion making it harmful to health. Combustion process releases a lot of unwanted, toxic and poisonous by-products that may include carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, ash, ammonia and much more carcinogenic or cancer-causing compounds. Since, there occurs a necessity to make use of fire in order to prompt combustion; human throat is exposed to a large amount of very harmful and direct heat that can cause a lot of damage to the lungs.
Also, Combustion is very harmful and dangerous as it destroys most of the very important and active materials of the herbs. So, it becomes so obvious that smoking by its own way has numerous amounts of severe side effects. The activity is made futile by this method as the required ingredients are destroyed during the process.
As we compare smoking and vaporization, vaporization has a lot of advantages. Vaporizing does not facilitate or use combustion in order to bring the active ingredients out of the plants or herbs. Vaporizing uses the process of sublimation so as to release the important compounds and materials. Sublimation is the process of converting the solids to gaseous form so that it can be inhaled. In vaporizing, all the necessary ingredients of the herbs are not destroyed or even changed, as it does not use direct heat or fire. Toxic and other poisonous products like carcinogens that are dangerous, are not produced by this method. Vaporization causes no irritation, unlike smoking. So, it is always safer.
The produced gas or vapor can be seen through naked eyes but it does not have any strong odor. Vapor does not have any kind of uncomfortable strong smell, unlike that of smoking. Vapor gives you the natural taste. You can smell the natural flavor of the plants and feel the aroma as you vaporize.
To conclude simply, we can surely say that vaporization has better effect of letting you absorb the important and active substances than that of smoking as it does not cause any kind of side effects, irritation or other severity. It also does not produce any carcinogens, unlike smoking. So, buy the ez vape vaporizer or otherwise the digital vaporizer, or the herbal vaporizer, or the electric vaporizer or the marijuana vaporizer immediately and enjoy the aroma of the exotic herbs.

I have loved grooming dogs and cats for almost 30 years, but I still learn new things on a regular basis. That is one of the aspects of my job that brings me great satisfaction. Sometimes I am merely reminded of things that I have known but have, perhaps, forgotten. That was the case recently, and I thought I would share the lesson with you.
Here is the story. We have a long-time customer who can best be described as grumpy. I believe he is a good man, but when dealing with us he can be demanding, inflexible and terse. He dropped his dogs off last week at the same time that a sweet, effervescent, happy, friendly,customer was dropping off her brand new, just-adopted-from-the-shelter mixed breed pup. I went out to meet her new dog, and I made a fuss over it. The new rescue was adorable, and I am always so happy when a dog comes in that has been adopted from the shelter. I was also happy because the customer had previously told me how excited she was to add a new dog to her home.
Later in the day when "Mr. Terse" came in to pick his dogs up, he looked me in the eye and said, "You never squeal over my dogs." I was confused and asked him what he meant. "You squealed over that dog that came in when I brought my dogs in. You never do that over my dogs." I explained to him that the dog in question had just been adopted, and he smiled a little and nodded as if he understood, but you know, he was right. I never do make a fuss over his dogs. It honestly never occurred to me that it might be important to him to have me do so. But in reality, no matter how tricky this man can sometimes be to deal with, I know he adores his dogs and that they are very important to him. He takes wonderful care of them, and they are very good dogs.
My lesson, re-taught, is that even people who might be difficult love their pets. And they are pleased when it is obvious that we care about their pets, too. I was reminded of the importance of the human-animal bond, and how much it would mean to me, if I were in a similar position, to feel that the person I am entrusting my pet to actually cared about my dog or cat.
In truth, I do care about all the animals I am privileged to groom. It is also true that I don't always take time to show the way I feel. I plan to change that, starting this week.
This isn't the first lesson a customer has taught me, and it wont be the last. It is a good lesson though, one I hope you find helpful as well.

"Reason to celebrate"
Brought home a '90 Miata today- 41,000 miles and great condition. Wanted to celebrate the occasion, so I went to the humidor for a 1916 Cameroon Churchill. It didn't disappoint. I've smoked a number of them, and enjoyed everyone. Good draw, even burn, clingy ash, great flavor. There will always be some in my humidor.
Tony P. in Louisville, Ky November 15, 2007
"Not Sure"
I bought a bunch of these the other night to share with some of my buddies. The wives were out of town so we had a reason to celebrate!! The construction is great although the wrapper leaf tends to be pretty thin and starts to unravel when you cut it. This happened on all of the cigars. Also, 2 out of the 5 were plugged pretty bad. It wasn't that it was rolled too tight but they had some hard spots that we couldn't "massage" out. Also, I'm not to sure about the taste. I really couldn't nail it down but I just didn't like this blend. I tend towards medium to full maduros and this one just didn't do it for me. I also bought a CT Signature Perfecto Maduro which is supposed to be pretty good based on everyone's reviews. I'll give that one a try and see if I feel any different.
Scott in Wilmington, NC July 5, 2007
"excellent cigar, maybe? ...tight draw, Yes"
I bought a box and have smoked two within the 1st week. The initial cigar's draw problem was immediately apparent and the fragil wrapping was hard to keep in place. Several days later the 2nd smoked a bit better, but wrapper came apart and the draw was still too tight. Maybe letting these puppies rest peasefully in a humidor for while helps their cause... considering their price, I sure hope so.
John G. in Bainbridge Island, WA September 24, 2006
"One Fantastic Deal!"
I was checking these on the auction site and was appalled at some of the negative or "average" comments. I don't doubt the guys were describing their experience, but I've found these to be superb smokes! I've smoked them within days of arrival, and have some that have aged over a year, and they are always reliable, smooth, and flavorful. Construction is excellent -- they are handmade agricultural products and maybe one or two per box has flaws with the wrapper or canoes a bit, but I can accept that if the rest are excellent and these always are. Flavor is slightly sweet (the Camaroon wrapper coming through), rich and varied. In short, I love these! I'm always tempted to reach for a "better" (that means more expensive) cigar, but the reality is that when I really want to kick back and enjoy a great cigar, an adult beverage and good conversation, this is what I reach for almost every time. Highly recommended!
Phil in Eugene, OR June 9, 2006
"A good smoke but????"
I purchased (2) 5 packs at auction. A great looking cigar, nice presentation. Well built, nice ash, good quality. Taste has been inconsistent. I expected better. My wife says it has a bad odor (which she doesn't say about all cigars). I'm keeping a few in my humidor for awhile to see if they will get better with age.

The static is used to seed /dev/random. The kernel will still add its internal entropy. An attack on this using radio signals can influence the random number generator, but not control it. The code for audio-entropyd will compare strings gathered from the sound device, and discard duplicate data (like sound card initialization data). Even under this attack I don't see how the random pool could be predictable.

Haiti cholera
Listen to Black Agenda Radio on the Progressive Radio Network, with Glen Ford and Nellie Bailey – Week of 3/19/14
U.S. Guilty in Haiti Cholera Epidemic
The United States "is as responsible, if not more," than the United Nations for the cholera outbreak in Haiti, since "it's because of the military occupation that we have cholera," said Dr. Jemima Pierre, professor of African American and Diaspora Studies at Vanderbilt University, in Nashville. The U.S. backed a coup against the democratically elected government of Haiti, in 2004, and then invaded the country. " Later, the U.S. brought in the UN "to cover this dirty work and make it legitimate," said Dr. Pierre. UN "peacekeepers" were the vectors of the disease.
Crimea Deserves Self-Determination
Dr. John Quigley, professor of international law at Ohio State University with decades of experience in Russia and its neighbors, said Crimean "sentiment for separation" from Ukraine "has been very strong for a very long time" and the referendum on secession was not taken "under the gun" of Russia. The U.S. and its allies claim all of Ukraine should have been allowed to vote. But, "the essence of self-determination is that a particular people" – such as the Crimeans – "has that right."
U.S. Billions for Ukrainian Fascists, Cuts for Hungry American Children
Washington is offering $10 billion in loan guarantees to the partly-fascist government of Ukraine, while cutting $8 billion in food stamp benefits to Americans, said Sara Flounders, of the United National Anti-War Coalition (UNAC). "That is literally stealing food from the mouths of children," she said. UNAC held demonstrations in 18 cities last week, to protest U.S. support for the coup in Ukraine. "The encirclement of Russia – and China – is what it's all about," said Flounders.
Mumia: Police Still Spreading Anti-MOVE Propaganda
The Fraternal Order of Police has orchestrated a renewed campaign of hatred and disinformation against the MOVE organization in order to prevent imprisoned members from winning parole, said Mumia Abu Jamal, the nation's best-known political prisoner. MOVE members convicted in the death of a policeman during a 1978 raid have served their minimum sentences and are up for parole, and many Black Philadelphians have never gotten over the 1985 police bombing of a MOVE house that killed 11 people, including five children. A recent Philadelphia Magazine article was "full of innuendo and suggestion that MOVE folks beat and attacked their children," said Abu Jamal – a ploy designed to focus public anger on MOVE rather than the police who actually killed so many children.
Monteiro Supporters Blast Temple University and Molefi Asante
Hundreds of community, student and labor activists demanded reinstatement with tenure for Dr. Anthony Monteiro, an associate professor in the African American Studies Department. "I'm troubled by the fact that all of the people who understand what justice looks like are out here," instead of in Sullivan Hall, where the university's board of trustees was meeting, said Henry Nicholas, president of Local 1199C of the Hospital and Health Care Employees Union. Anti-hunger activist Sacaree Rhodes led a few dozen demonstrations into the building, where Temple's president confirmed that Dr. Molefi Asante, chairman of African American Studies, had collaborated in terminating Monteiro's contract. Dr. Monteiro told the crowd: "If you are telling me that you can have a department of African American studies without teaching the radical tradition, and the traditions of socialism," then "you are telling me that you want a department built on a lie."

Cancel Detroit's Debt
Predatory bank lending policies destroyed the tax base of Detroit, and now these same Wall Street institutions want to confiscate the city's public assets through forced bankruptcy. The debt should be cancelled, said Abayomi Azikiwe, an organizer of the First International People's Assembly Against Banks and Against Austerity, held in Detroit last week. "It's illegitimate. It's based on the systematic destruction of the city," said Azikiwe, editor of the Pan African News Wire. "We believe that people in other cities have to adopt a similar strategy."
Leave Cornel West and Tavis Smiley Alone
Rev. Al Sharpton, NAACP chief Ben Jealous and broadcaster Tom Joyner should halt their attacks on scholar/activist Cornel West and broadcaster Tavis Smiley, said Rev. Anthony Evans, director of the National Black Church Initiative. "Take your hands off these brothers. They are defending the integrity and worthiness of the Black community," said Evans. Prominent Obama supporters, he said, have told the White House: "You don't have to worry about Black folks getting out of line; we will keep them in line for you."
A Socialist Win in Minneapolis?
Even the corporate media admit that Socialist Alternative candidate Ty Moore has a chance of winning a seat on the city council, this November. "If we win this race, it's not because a majority of working class residents of Ward 9, South Minneapolis, are socialists, but because they are angry at the system and they see that the people who are running this city are clearly sided with the rich and big business," said Moore. "Our organization has built roots in this community, by fighting back." Another Socialist Alternative city council candidate is running well in Seattle.
UN Sued Over Haiti Cholera
The Institute for Justice and Democracy in Haiti filed suit in federal court, demanding the United Nations take responsibility for the cholera epidemic that has killed at least 8,000 Haitians and sickened hundreds of thousands more. The world body claims it is immune from legal action, although it is widely accepted that UN 'peacekeepers' were the nexus of the disease. "The UN's refusal to accept the rule of law in this case obviously undermines its ability to promote the rule of law, elsewhere," said Institute director Brian Concannon. He notes that the UN, which claims lack of funds to eradicate cholera in Haiti, spent $500 million last year for 'peacekeeping' soldiers "in a country that has not had a recognized war in our lifetime."
US Finances Congo Carnage
Rwandan President Paul Kagame and Ugandan leader Yoweri Museveni told a UN Security Council delegation that bringing peace to the Democratic Republic of Congo is not their responsibility. Maurice Carney, of Washington-based Friends of Congo, agrees. "Kagame and Museveni can never be responsible for peace," said Carney. "What they can be responsible for is stopping the war of aggression that they have been waging against the Congolese people, with U.S. financial and military support and training, and U.S. diplomatic and political cover." Rwanda and Uganda invaded the mineral-rich eastern region of the Congo 17 years ago, resulting in the deaths of six million people – and counting.
Demonizing Assad
American peace activists recently returned from a visit to Syria, where they met with President Bashir Al-Assad. Sara Flounders, of the International Action Center, said it was important to counter U.S. government and media attempts to "demonize" the Syrian leader, as an excuse for arming thousands of jihadist "rebels." "It was Syria that proposed making the whole region into a nuclear-free and chemical-free weapons zone," said Flounders. "It was the U.S. who refused."
China as U.S. Banker
Washington is "pivoting" to confront China militarily in Asia, while at the same time Beijing holds the largest share of Washington's huge foreign debt. "It is quite ironic that the United States is seeking to escalate tensions with its bankers," said Dr. Gerald Horne, professor of history and African American studies at the University of Houston. "I'm not sure that's a sound strategy. With an impending debt default," said Horne, the dollar "as the principal world reserve currency comes into question."
Philadelphia Declaration: War = Poverty
Grassroots activists held a Conference to Celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Martin Luther King's Letter from a Birmingham Jail. "Our declaration of the rights of our people must demand an end to war, threats of war, and preparations for war," said Dr. Anthony Monteiro, professor of African American Studies at Temple University. "You cannot answer the pressing social problems of this country, uppermost being poverty, without dismantling the warfare state," he told the gathering at Philadelphia's historic Church of the Advocate.
Herman Wallace: A Free Man
Mumia Abu Jamal, a former Black Panther and the country's best known political prisoner, saluted Herman Wallace, who was released from prison after 41 years of solitary confinement, earlier this month, only to die two days later of liver cancer. Wallace and two other inmates established a Black Panther Party chapter at Louisiana's infamous Angola Prison. "He remained a soldier for the people and an opponent to the system," said Abu Jamal. "Herman Wall truly died free."

NAACP Image Awards Targeted for Protest
Benton Harbor, Michigan, activist Rev. Edward Pinkney plans to lead hundreds of pickets at the NAACP's Image Awards ceremonies on February 1, in Los Angeles. "Our main objective is to wake up the NAACP, and show that they are out of touch with the community," said Pinkney, longtime leader of the civil rights group's local chapter. Pinkney charges the NAACP collaborated with a Whirlpool Corporation scheme to take over the Ben Harbor NAACP, in return for financial support. The Los Angeles protest will send the NAACP a message, said Pinkney: "We need you to stop taking these corporate dollars."
White House and Republicans Play Fiscal Tag Team
The Obama administration and Republican congressional leaders "are pushing essentially the same solutions" to the so-called fiscal cliff problem. "Nobody on either side is talking about the military budget" or "serious taxation of billionaires; in fact, both sides are talking about cutting corporate taxes," said David Swanson, publisher of the influential website War Is a Crime. "You don't really have opposition between these two parties, you have agreement," he said.
Arne Duncan Must Go
Black and progressive educators should push for Secretary of Education Arne Duncan to be replaced early in Obama's second term, said Dr. Sam Anderson, of New York City's Independent Commission on Public Education. The concept of education as a "human right is historically rooted in our struggle to be free in this country, as Black people," said Anderson.
Bill Clinton Most to Blame for Congo "Holocaust"
Millions of Congolese have died since 1996 due to policies set in motion by President Bill Clinton, said Prof. Yaa Lengi, of the Congo Coalition. Neighboring Uganda and Rwanda "are always coming up with schemes to foment chaos in eastern Congo" in order to exploit the region's mineral resources. "Cell phones, lap tops, flat screen TVs – all those gadgets need the minerals of the Congo," said coalition organizer William Misezuel.
More Bad News for Congo: Oil
"Of late there's been a major oil discovery in Congo, which makes it even more attractive" to outsiders, said Dr. Gerald Horne, professor of history and African American Studies at the University of Houston. "The United States needs to put more pressure on the Rwandan and Ugandan regimes," since Washington "is the puppeteer" of the relationship. Dr. Horne spoke on Regent Radio's Saturday Morning Show, in Toronto, Canada.
UN Fails Haiti on Rights
A report by the Paris-based Federation of Human Rights charges the United Nations with failing to take responsibility for causing the cholera epidemic in Haiti, and with inflicting other human rights violations on the occupied nation. In addition to spreading cholera, UN troops have "violated Haitians' rights in various ways, from rapes to extrajudicial killings," said Dan Beeton, of the Center for Economic and Policy Research, in Washington. The UN recently extended its occupation troops' mandate for another year.

Blacks Disappearing From California University Campuses
"Even at African American Studies classes at UC Berkeley, it is now rare that Black students are a majority of the class," said Yvette Felarca, one of the protesters that briefly occupied the Registrar's office. African American enrollment has dropped to 3 percent since passage of Proposition 2009, the referendum that outlawed affirmative action in state higher education in 1996. A federal appeals court recently upheld the ban. George Washington, a lawyer for Detroit-based By Any Means Necessary (BAMN), calls the law "a direct attack on the political rights of Black and Latino people. Every other citizen of the state of California can say they want a special admissions program" – except racial and ethnic minorities.
Look at Dick and Jane. See Their Privileges
"Dick and Jane," the old picture book primer, taught post-World War Two Americans that lily white suburban lives were the ones "that need to be protected from criminal Others like Trayvon Martin when they enter into gated communities," said scholar and activist Sikivu Hutchinson. "This whole paradigm was really constructed upon the Othering of African Americans and other families of color."
Occupy the Justice Department
The U.S. criminal justice system will be put on trial, on April 24, when demonstrators "Occupy" the U.S. Justice Department, in Washington. Benjamin Woods, of Students Against Mass Incarceration, hopes to put "prison abolition back on the table, as opposed to just prison 'reform' and 'stop these brutalities.'" The Howard University doctoral candidate said the questions must be posed: "What is an alternative to prison? How can we transform society so that prisons are no longer necessary?"
California Prisoners Take Torture Case to the UN
Peter Schey, of the Center for Human Rights and Constitutional Law, has filed petitions asking the United Nations to intervene in California's draconian prison solitary confinement practices. "The majority are placed in solitary confinement" – for years and even decades – "based on mere gang membership or association with gangs," said Schey. His clients want the UN to issue a report stating that California's policies "constitute torture in violation of international law."
The Rich, and Their Children, Get Richer
The Senate should pass a bill that would restore taxes on inherited wealth to levels that would raise half a trillion dollars over the next ten years, said Tim Sullivan, of United for a Fair Economy, part of Americans for a Fair Estate Tax. "The concentrated wealth we are seeing right now is at epidemic proportions, the worst it has been since before the Great Depression, and the Estate Tax is near its weakest level since it was put into place 100 years ago," said Sullivan.
U.S. Hands Off Mali!
The Tuareg rebellion that has cut the West African nation of Mali in two is the result of colonial boundaries and decisions that "left out a nomadic people without any kind of land base of their own," said Anna Edwards, of Defenders of Freedom, Justice and Equality, in Richmond, Virginia. The "destabilization of Libya" by the U.S. and NATO left thousands of Malian Tuaregs jobless. Peace activists should demand that the U.S. not intervene in the conflict, said Ms. Edwards, who has visited Mali several times. "The bulk of U.S. aid to Mali is implemented through AFRICOM, and the desire to find a base on African soil."
Cholera Deaths Up in Haiti
The return of the rainy season has brought an increase in deaths from cholera, which has killed 7,000 Haitians and sickened half a million since its introduction by MINUSTAH, the United Nations military occupation force. The UN has the responsibility to commit the resources to control the disease "because they brought it there, but they're still denying it," said Mark Weisbrot, co-director of the Center for Economic and Policy Research, in Washington. "This is the rainy season, and once again they're not prepared for it. I think they just don't care enough."

The Non-Election for the Non-Government of the Non-Sovereign State of Haiti
A Black Agenda Radio commentary by Glen Ford
The Haitian people didn't want it, even most of the candidates rejected it, so who was supposed to benefit from last Sunday's farcical election? "The exercise only has value for those who paid for it, the Americans, who spent $14 million on this fraud in hopes of disguising the fact that Haiti is a U.S. colony."

Deborah has always been fascinated with childhood, whether it is recording her own memories of childhood, photographing her own children or other children. In her series Stillness in Time she wanted to photograph children using the wet plate collodion process – a process that requires stillness, the antithesis to the frantic, sometimes pressurized world these children live in. She wanted to record moments of stillness and disengagement from their immediate world. Her work has been published by Galerie Vevais & a softcover edition is to be released this Autumn. She has exhibited widely, including Japan, Europe & the U.S and her work is held in collections around the world.

If you've been following our corporate blog, you know that we've been a little preoccupied with inventory (or lack thereof) lately. First we told you about all the competitive offer situations our agents and clients have been getting into in places where the inventory shortage is a real problem, like San Francisco and Seattle.
Then we surveyed our customers, just to see how they were feeling about the market, and 63% of them told us low inventory was a major concern. So we looked into the nationwide inventory shortage some more and found that over the last year, inventory had shrunk in every single one of our markets. And desperate times call for desperate measures: home buyers are going door-to-door making offers on houses that aren't for sale, and our agents are receiving emails asking if they have any pocket listings (homes that are for sale, but not listed).
Float over any county on the map or its colored bar on the table for more details about inventory in that city.
So what's the story in Philly? Compared to the rest of the country, the inventory situation isn't so bad. Of the markets where Redfin operates, Philly is 4th on the list after Chicago in terms of the number of listings per 1,000 households.
But at the county level, the Philadelphia market has some interesting differences. For example, in Philadelphia County, home buyers have the least selection with just 15.7 homes on the market for every 1,000 households. Moving outside of the city, listings become more plentiful. In Chester County, there are 20.4 listings for every 1,000 households, and New Jersey home buyers have hit the jackpot with as many as 34.3 listings per 1,000 households in Salem County."With most counties still seeing falling home prices, homeowners in the pricier areas such as Montgomery and Bucks Counties are probably waiting for prices to start to rise before they think about selling," explained Linda Wolbers, Redfin's Philadelphia Area Manager. "Unemployment may also be a contributing factor, as some of the counties with more homes for sale also have higher levels of unemployment."
Float over any county on the map or its colored bar on the table for more details about inventory in that city.
How do you feel about the selection of homes for sale in Philly? Please join us to meet our agents and talk about inventory and celebrate our arrival in Philly at our community launch party on March 28th!

Fixing the Change Management Nightmare
On-demand Web Seminar
There are currently no dates scheduled for this event. However a recording of a previous session is available as an on-demand web seminar.
View This On-Demand Web Seminar NowOverview
Configuration and change management of design data is a big challenge in aerospace electrical design. Creating, tracking and checking the many variants of individual features is a challenge both from the standpoint of electrical integrity -"does this configuration operate correctly?"; and from the standpoint of data management – "how to manage multiple effectivities without massive data duplication?"
Join Mentor Graphics for this session to learn how leading companies are addressing the challenges of configuration and change management using the Capital electrical design system to design and manage their data and simplify the process of electrical configuration control and validation.
What You Will Learn
- How leading companies are using effectivity management at the design level to assist the engineer during the product design process
- How various revisions of designs can be quickly assembled into a new product configuration
- How design change is managed and the various ways to determine the "was/is" differences in the design data

The Tide Shifts at CES
So I'm sitting in the rather vast "press" corner of a CES keynote audience, waiting to see Paul Otellini, President & CEO of Intel, give a keynote. Two years ago I sat at an Otellini keynote here. As I reported in What's Intel up to with VIIV?, it was disappointing. Will this be different? Sure hope so.
Back then the pitch was for More Television, essentially; and better ways of flowing crap to consumers. Here's a sample of my notes from the talk:
There's a kieretsu of sorts here. DirecTV, for example. AOL. NBC...
It's being presented as the Complete Replacement for TV.
"A chance for broadcasters and rights-holders to extend their franchise".
"More choices for us as consumers. And more choices for content-makers".
"Premium films to the home, over the Internet".
What about non-OEMs? Good luck...
"A chance for broadcasters and rights-holders to extend their franchise".
"More choices for us as consumers. And more choices for content-makers".
"Premium films to the home, over the Internet".
Clickstar. New company bought by Intel. Delivering Hollywood goods. Very loudly.
They just brought out Morgan Freeman and an executive of some sort. Morgan is reading from the prompter. Sad.
He's introducing danny devito, tom hanks, others. Lordy. Will they be 'prompted as well? Not hanks.
Today Clickstar is still in beta and only runs on Windows anyway. VIIV is nowhere (that I've noticed.) Will Paul rehash any of this? Or will he catch the flow going the other direction?
The talk opens with a video take-off on the Buggles' Video Killed the Radio Star. Lyrics: Internet made the video star... Internet rocked the broadcasting star... Internet stunned the camera star.
Paul says we now live in "the era of the 'go to' Internet". That is, "In this model the Internet reacts to our requests". In the next model, he says, "the Internet will come to us." Meaning, "a new level of capability and usefulness", procative, "context aware".
He sees four obstacles in the way: lack of wireless infrastructure and ubiquity, context, electric power, and a natural UI. He sees the next generation of devices and services building out a new ecosystem with those four problems solved.
Now he's showing some pretty slick stuff, such as a portable device you can point at a Chinese sign that automatically translates the sign into English. The image sign itself turns into English. No subtitles. Does the same for menus. Records speech and translates it.
Now he brings up Steve Harwell of Smash Mouth, to show off several products that allow band members to jam over the Net with no apparent latency delay. First with audio and then with video, where avatars created from photos of Steve and other band members move in a Second-Lifey kind of way. Does any of it run on Linux? Hard to tell.
At the end Paul talks about the "personal" internet, and how consumers are going to be the new producers as well.
Quite a difference from two years ago. That's when I concluded my notes with this:
I think the new sweet spot in the market is in the open, non-DRM'd part — the part that's non-Microsoft and non-Apple, even if it's still Intel Inside.
Think about this. The best screens you can get in the next year will be 1080p full-HD displays. And the best source of "content" (man, I hate that word) for those screens will be high-definition camcorders. Fiber to the home is still a rarity, and even high-def digital cable and satellite aren't due to deliver 1080-grade resolution. Meaning the best source of the best-looking stuff will be: ourselves.
Once again, the demand side will supply itself. Mostly without DRM or any of that other use-throttling jive. Open will win where it matters.
Or so I hope.
At every CES up to this one, I always felt that both open source and user-in-charge were swimming upstream against a tide of proprietary "solutions" and user lock-in strategies. I always had hope that the tide would turn, but not much faith.
This year I have faith. I can feel the tide shift here. And it's not just with the likes of Intel. Lots of small things point toward increased user autonomy, originality, invention and engagement. The story isn't just about What Big Companies Are Doing For You any more. It's what you're doing for yourself, and for whomever you like.
Funny thing is, that points to a much bigger business than Consumer Electronics is already.
Doc Searls is Senior Editor of Linux Journal
Bubbletalk or just incombunt steady state
So Otellini thinks that push is the next big thing ("the Internet will come to us." ). Is this because we're in hype-drive at the moment or is this just the standard incumbent line once again - "It's going to be more like TV" ?
As always ... spot on!
I don't generally comment on your blog, though I'm an avid reader ... and with all the hoopla about CES this week felt compelled to chime in with a hearty - hell yeah!
Thanks for the perspective, Doc.
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Archive for the 'Baby's Food' Category
In Support of the Most Real Food There Is…
On March 28, 2013, bloggers from around the world came together in a show of support for breastfeeding mothers. New mothers have enough challenges without having to feel guilty for how they feed their baby.
Over the last few days there have been a lot of heated debates, controversial posts, and social media outcry against the position that the Weston A. Price Foundation (WAPF) takes on breastfeeding.
While they do present sound information on the ideal diet for breastfeeding mothers, they do so in a manner that brings about guilt, fear, and confusion.
I was particularly sorry to see many of my favourite 'real food' bloggers supporting this message through the support of The Village Green Network's recent Healthy Life Summit, where blogger and spokesperson for the WAPF Sarah Pope presented a seminar entitled: Is Breast Always Best? (followed up by the answer – only if mother's diet is nutritionally dense).
I want to emphasize that behind that messaging is not just the thought of a mother who survives on a diet of pepsi and doritos – but vegetarians, vegans, people who follow a middle of the road conventionally healthy diet – essentially anyone who does not follow the strict WAPF protocol of only traditional, real foods.
In fact, they believe that "The diet of modern American women is so appalling, and their preparation for successful breastfeeding so lacking, that their breast milk provides no better nourishment for their infants than factory-made formula." Read the rest of this entry »
Does Your Diet Affect Breast Milk?
Welcome to the Breastfeeding Support Blog Party! Bloggers around the world have gathered together to share posts which provide current or soon-to-be breastfeeding mothers with a wealth of well-researched information, personal stories, and statistics designed to help you have the most successful breastfeeding experience possible. Be sure to scroll to the bottom of this post to learn more about this movement as well as to link to and read more informative breastfeeding support posts.
There is a lot of pressure on us as women and as mothers in particular. High expectations of looking a certain way, eating a certain way, being on top of everything while being pillars of support are placed on us every single day.
I think this is part of why it's so easy to get both defensive and judgmental when it comes to parenting.
Particularly as new mothers, we are barraged with information and criticism from every corner, all while trying to figure out this totally new role of parenting on less sleep than we've ever gotten in our lives. Not. Easy.
Among the topics that come up for the most controversy, you could hardly pick a more prevalent one than breastfeeding. And the pressure here is multiplied tenfold – you're constantly told it's best for your baby while at the same time stumbling through minefields of 'booby traps' or obstacles to breastfeeding.
I traveled through that minefield and crashed and burned. Lack of support, misinformation, pain and agony and more – the reasons I gave up on breastfeeding were many – and sneaking in right along with them were feelings of inadequacy. I wasn't healthy enough. I didn't eat well enough. I was too fat.
I wasn't a good enough mother to do the best for my baby. Read the rest of this entry »
A Tradition of Love
Welcome to the November Carnival of Natural Parenting: Kids in the Kitchen
This post was written for inclusion in the monthly Carnival of Natural Parenting hosted by Hobo Mama and Code Name: Mama. This month our participants have shared how kids get involved in cooking and feeding. Please read to the end to find a list of links to the other carnival participants.
Some of the memories I cherish most from childhood are those of helping my mom in the kitchen. It was mostly the occasional baking for a treat or holiday; she actually wasn't a huge fan of cooking for the most part, but she pretty much always let us help from as early as I can remember…starting off with stirring and eventually moving up to being able to complete each task.
From that point, I was never held back from experimenting in the kitchen.
We had this crazy 70′s style plastic case full of recipe cards that had a whole section of recipes for children. I think I made almost all of them – my mom was happy to buy the ingredients and I got my little brother in on the action. Now that I think about it those were probably some hideously disgusting recipes lol – but I was so proud of myself for putting it all together!
As we grew older my brother and I took over many of the cooking duties, and I continued to learn and experiment – we even hosted a 'French' dinner for my parents one night in the backyard, where I made quiche for the first time – so exotic!
I kind of laugh at myself now about it all, but I really do remember the joy I had in all of those activities – especially when I figured out how to make something really great and shared it with friends.
For me, it's a rich legacy of tradition, creativity, and family all mixed together – so of course I can't wait to pass all of it on to my own little ones.
I've actually been surprised at how easy it's been already to involve my daughter in the kitchen – she's only 14 months after all, but I've already seen several ways to include her… Read the rest of this entry »
Guest Post ~ The Rotten Truth About Baby Bottle Tooth Decay
I am pleased to welcome Nadia Jones as a guest poster today; after reading some of my posts on my breastfeeding struggles and knowing that I do feed my little one by bottle, she offered to share some interesting and important information on keeping baby's teeth safe when it comes to bottle feeding.
One thing I was curious about when first reading her post was whether the same cautions would apply to breastfeeding, and if not, why not. Nadia graciously answered my query on why and how it is not really the same, and I've added her answer to the post.
I hope you enjoy and find this post helpful, and be sure to leave any questions you may have for Nadia in the comments section.
The Rotten Truth About Baby Bottle Tooth Decay
If you're feeding baby by bottle, it's important to know whether you are putting him or her at risk for developing baby bottle tooth decay, especially as he or she begins to develop teeth around the 6-month-mark.

World Breastfeeding Week
This week is world breastfeeding week, and I am so thrilled today to be guest posting at the Natural Parents Network – a very near and dear to my heart post that is co-written with fellow blogger, Krista of Think Mama, Think.
Krista came to me with the idea of writing a post together when she came across my own breastfeeding experiences on my blog and realized how incredibly similar they were to her's. She wanted to explore together why our stories ended so differently – in hopes of helping other moms – and I was very happy to do so.
I wasn't able to make breastfeeding work for me, but it is continually my hope that my story will help other moms move forward where I did not.
I've also become very determined to make it happen next time around!
I wrote 2 posts a few months back that I entitled 'My Breastfeeding Mistakes' Part 1 & Part 2. They were areas where I could see, with the benefit of hindsight and the perspective of several months, where I had 'gone wrong'.
A commenter gently corrected me on calling them 'mistakes', and I am happy to quote Justine's comment here as she is so right on, and this is the message I hope gets passed on: Read the rest of this entry »
Why I Chose Baby Led Weaning: 4 Personal Reasons
This guest post is written by Rachel Crownoble. I have to share a bit of personal background here…
Rachel was my roommate in college – we've known each other over 11 years now, though most of it has been long distance since we graduated!
As we've been somewhat in and out of touch over the years, it's been so fun for me to see the many similarities in our parenting philosophies. I now look to Rachel as a role model in more than one area, as a new parent and an aspiring doula. (I'm sure she's blushing now! ).
I asked her specifically to write this post after a comment I saw she had written on another friend's question on Facebook on what she should start feeding her 6 month old. Most of the other answers involved different purees and rice cereals…but Rachel's comment was along the lines of: Don't worry about it! My kids didn't start eating until a bit later and then they just started grabbing food off my plate.
It was one of my first introductions to Baby Led Weaning!
I'll share more of my perspective on the whole idea in another post, but I was really excited to hear from Rachel, as she was doing this some years ago and had great success with it.
Rachel is now a certified birth doula and aspiring midwife in Southern California. Aside from this exciting work, she is mom to two beautiful girls – Abigail (Abie) and Amileah (Millie). She also blogs about her amazing experiences with birth at Doula Rachel. You can find her on Facebook as well.
Without further ado, here is her post… Read the rest of this entry »
A Garden Made of Straw
Welcome to the May Carnival of Natural Parenting: Growing in the Outdoors
This post was written for inclusion in the monthly Carnival of Natural Parenting hosted by Code Name: Mama and Hobo Mama. This month our participants have shared how they encourage their children to connect with nature and dig in the dirt. Please read to the end to find a list of links to the other carnival participants.
A few months back I was talking to my mom on the phone when she excitedly told me she had signed up for a class in straw bale gardening.
Straw bale-huh?
Well, it turns out that you can make a garden out of straw bales (like hay bales, except straw), planting your veggies and such directly in (or on top of) the bales.
I was intrigued, so I decided to Google it and give it a go myself.
It's supposed to be easier in some ways than a regular garden – no digging, not as much weeding or bending over…and since my thumb is far from being green I decided to go ahead and try it – easy is good, right?
I also have a strong desire for my baby Bean to know where her food comes from, and this is one way to contribute to that. I'm not sure how much she'll understand as she won't even be a year old until August, but I figure, the earlier, the better.
I have dreams of taking her to visit farms to see cows and chickens, going berry picking and apple picking, visiting farmers markets and other such field trips. I've heard stories of kids who have never even seen a cow and I'm determined that that will not be the case for my family!
Anyway, we were talking about gardening, right? Read the rest of this entry »
My Breastfeeding Mistakes
I am an aspiring doula and midwife, and though at this point I have no idea when I will be able to make those dreams come true, I am doing what I can to start making it happen.
So this week I started in on the required reading that is part of the certification from DONA International - the first step in a long (and hopefully awesome) journey.
The first book I picked up is Breastfeeding Made Simple: 7 Natural Laws for Nursing Mothers, by Nancy Mohrbacher & Kathleen Kendall-Tackett. Boy do I wish I had read this book when I was pregnant!
As you may know, I don't breastfeed. And while I own that decision and believe I was and am doing the best I can do for my daughter, I do wish it had worked better for me. In the light of perspective – that whole hindsight is 20/20 thing – I've come to realize some of the mistakes I made in my attempts.
And the reason I'm writing this is not to point fingers or justify or any of those defensive/offensive take a stand reasons, but to continue to reflect on what I've done, what I can do better, and how I might be able to help someone who is experiencing anything similar.
So here goes…
1. I did not take the time to rest and focus as much as I should have. Read the rest of this entry »
Blood Orange and Pummelo…it's a Food Adventure!
I've always been a bit curious about blood oranges since reading about them in The Poisonwood Bible (not that they have anything to do with the story…they're pretty peripheral, as is this tangent, but if you haven't read that book yet, you should!).
We got some yesterday in our basket from Mama Earth Organics, and they are pretty darn amazing…weird though!
We also got a ginormous pummelo, which Dave insists is the same as a grapefruit, but I read on the interweb that it's not, so I think I'm right.
I tried my first blood orange this morning on what is turning out to be a pretty chill Saturday, which I am always thankful for, as weekends often tend to end up being the most crazy days of the week. I've got some laundry and dishes done. There is bread going in the breadmaker – my first attempt at a 100% whole wheat loaf using vital wheat gluten (so I'm hoping it will turn out well). This is the recipe I'm using to make Whole Wheat Honey Bread.
Here are a few more things that came in my basket that I've never tried before:
- Parsnip
- Golden Beets
- Delicata Squash
- Bok Choy (well, I've made it once before, but it's still pretty new)
It really does feel like an adventure to have the opportunity to try so many new fruits and vegetables.
I enjoy googling for recipes (is googling a verb? If not, it should be ) and trying them out. Sometimes they don't turn out so well, but usually they're pretty unexpectedly good – and I look forward to introducing them to the Bean as well. Read the rest of this entry »
Buying Organic for Baby?
I was so excited today to receive our first delivery basket from Mama Earth Organics (if you live in the GTA, you should definitely check them out!).
Isn't it beautiful?
We really debated buying all organic for the Bean – it's obviously better, but it also seemed like a lot of money!
But being slightly obsessed with the Bean's food, I decided that if we possibly could, it would be the best way to go – and I think we've even managed to find a solution that's pretty darn affordable.
The Baby Button turned 6 months today and had her first solid food at the beginning of this week – avocado.
Avocado is a great first food for baby. It's easily mashable, and it has great fats that help with brain development along with all kinds of other good vitamins and nutrients. You can even freeze it – I found some great tips on how at Wholesome Baby Food – I did the one that recommended slicing it, dipping in a bath of water and a few squeezes of lemon juice, and freezing on a tray. It worked great – the slices have been in the freezer for close to a week now and there's not even a hint of brown (though if it does turn brown, baby won't mind )
But how to keep providing her with all this organic stuff without breaking the bank? Read the rest of this entry »
