University of Southern California
BOOK NOW ▼Los Angeles Midtown hotel's location is near USC
Our Radisson hotel is located in the heart of the city on the University of Southern California's main campus. Boasting a student body of more than 30,000 undergraduates and graduates, USC has been a pinnacle of furthering education in Southern California since its founding in 1880—making it the state's oldest standing university.
A stay at the Radisson Los Angeles Midtown means you will be well placed to visit events at the university or enjoy a tour of the campus for prospective enrollment.
History of the University of Southern California
Three prominent early residents of Los Angeles donated the land and start-up money for the University of California, which opened its doors in 1880. Though originally associated with the Methodist Church, the University of Southern California severed these ties in the 1950s.
Today, the university is a non-profit, private research university that is not only among the most esteemed institutions in the United States, but also a center of education on the world stage. Many prominent leaders in California and throughout the world have received their education from this university. Alumni include everyone from astronaut Neil Armstrong to the creator of Gumby, American animator Art Clokey.
Athletics and events at the University of Southern California
The University of Southern California has a storied athletics program, with both men's and women's teams claiming scores of honors throughout the years. In their respective sports, the University of Southern California men's teams have taken more than 80 NCAA championships, while the women's teams have netted more than a dozen.
Many of the University of Southern California's sporting events take place at or around the school's main campus in midtown Los Angeles. For example, the USC Trojans football team, which plays in the Pac-12, hosts its games at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, just minutes away from the Radisson Los Angeles Midtown. The Trojans host their home games for basketball and volleyball at the nearby Galen Center, also within a convenient distance of our Los Angeles Midtown hotel's accommodations near USC. Discover why our hotel makes the ideal home base during your visit to nearby USC.

Are Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth done? Breakup rumors have hounded these two for many, many moons, but it's especially hard to shake suspicions of trouble in paradise when you unfollow your fiancé on Twitter.
Follow Us
Cyrus stopped following Hemsworth on Twitter yesterday, causing a rumble of scandalized murmurs across the social media site as interested parties wondered why she dropped him from the list and why he was still following her anyway.
Rumors of trouble between Cyrus and Hemsworth reached new heights following her tragically comical performance at the VMAs. Need we describe it again? The word on the street was that Hemsworth was horrified by Cyrus' maniacal twerking and uncontrollable tongue thrust, to the extent that he was ready to bail before she really got embarrassing.
The Twitter unfollowing comes on the heels of some seriously salacious rumors of bad behavior on Hemsworth's part. According to rumors, Hemsworth, 26, sent a racy text to 35-year-old actress January Jones, bluntly telling the Mad Men star that he wanted her in bed. His rep denied the allegation, but this isn't the first time the two have been connected in the rumor mill. Hemsworth and Jones were reportedly quite cozy at a pre-Oscars party in Los Angeles back in February, and were even photographed leaving the party together in the same car.
There are plenty of other hints feeding the rumors surrounding the Twitter unfollowing. As word was spreading of the online diss, the Hunger Games star was spotted last night at the Mayweather fight in Vegas sitting next to Twilight star Ashley Greene. Post-breakup partying, much?
What do you think? Have Cyrus and Hemsworth finally called it quits? Let us know in the comments section below!

Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin have officially separated after ten years of marriage, the actress and her husband wrote on Gwyneth's website Goop on March 24.
In a joint statement, Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin have posted on her website, goop, that they have officially decided to separate. The parents of Apple, 9, and Moses, 7, wrote a heartfelt statement which they titled "Conscious Uncoupling" explaining their decision to part ways.
Chris Martin & Gwyneth Paltrow Break Up
Chris, 37, and Gwyneth, 41, met in 2002 while his band Coldplay was touring. They began dating and got married in 2003, after she got pregnant.
Gwyneth Paltrow & Chris Martin: You're Separating The Right Way
They had their first child, daughter Apple Blythe Alison Martin, in May, 2004. Their second child, son Moses Bruce Anthony Martin, was born in April, 2006.
Below is the full statement that the couple posted, titled "Conscious Uncoupling," accompanied by a sweet photo of the pair:
It is with hearts full of sadness that we have decided to separate. We have been working hard for well over a year, some of it together, some of it separated, to see what might have been possible between us, and we have come to the conclusion that while we love each other very much we will remain separate. We are, however, and always will be a family, and in many ways we are closer than we have ever been. We are parents first and foremost, to two incredibly wonderful children and we ask for their and our space and privacy to be respected at this difficult time. We have always conducted our relationship privately, and we hope that as we consciously uncouple and co-parent, we will be able to continue in the same manner.
Gwyneth & Chris
Chris Martin Sings About Gwyneth Paltrow Split In Coldplay Song 'Magic'
"My husband makes me laugh every day. He is hilarious – he could have been a comedian, but he keeps it under wraps. He can laugh me out of a bad moment just like that," Gwyneth told The Daily Mail in March 2013 when she opened up about her miscarriage. Revealingly, perhaps foreshadowing what was to come for the couple, Gwyneth also told the outlet:
"Regardless of what happens in our marriage, I chose the best father. He is so good to the children, and to know that you had kids with such a good man is like a real weight off you. We are committed co-parents, we make all the decisions together and we lean on each other for support as well."
In the same vein, Gwyneth also once told Glamour UK in their June 2013 issue that "it's hard being married. You go through great times, you go through terrible times. We're the same as any couple."
Chelsea Handler, Gwyneth's BFF, once shared on her show Chelsea Lately some sage relationship advice straight from Gwyneth. Chelsea told her audience,
"[Gwyneth and I] were at a dinner party one night and this girl was asking for advice and Gwyneth is an amazing advice giver.
"The woman was saying, 'I got into a big fight with my husband and I got home and I wanted to scream and yell,' and Gwyneth was like, "whatever you're doing, just do the opposite. Just go at him with love and you give him [oral sex].'"
It sounds like Chris and Gwyneth clearly shared a deep connection and did all they could, but that this separation was also a long time coming.
Chris Martin 'Devastated' By Gwyneth Paltrow Split — Inside Separation
Gwyneth reprised her guest role in Glee as Holly Holiday for two episodes March 18 and March 25, and just wrapped the filming of Mordecai, a film opposite Johnny Depp. Meanwhile, Coldplay is scheduled to release their six album, Midnight in May, and Chris is set to join The Voice as a mentor for three weeks beginning March 31.

10 years is a long time? Well, it probably is for Hollywood. I don't buy the phrase love but not in love deal either. Frankly I think there are just too many temptations for people in general and far too many taking advantage of the new media to cheat. Conscious uncoupling does not help the person being dumped. In fact, I'd say being dumped renders them unconscious and in shock for quite some time. It's painful, period. No fancy title is going to make that easier. For the children's sake, give it another shot. If you have any feelings left it's saveable. Conscious or unconscious, it is very hard for children to lose your family.

Gwyneth, you say "we love each other so much" and are "closer than ever before". Well then put aside all the other issues, open up your hearts to each other, communicate your needs openly and honestly, and your relationship as husband and wife will strengthen. Never give up on love. Don't give up on each other. It's so easy to separate. Put everything you got to avoid that path. Choose each other and focus on that love and closeness that you mention. Nothing else really matters…
I am sad that you would give up on your marriage. You said you still love eachother so what is the problem. Take more time to work on your marriage. Cut down your work and busy schedules and spend quality time with your family. It is not like you can't afford to do this. You have children that would also benefit from you staying together. It is a no brainer. Married for 25 years and knew and dated my husband for 11. Get back to the basics.

Chris got tired of Gwyneth referring to herself in 3rd person and having to clean all the water out of the shower making the shower dry after he uses it because she doesn't like taking showers with "dirty water" left in the shower. That and he thinks it is ridiculous that she tries to sell $2,000 shorts to the rest of us peons on Goop.
I saw the writing on the wall when they moved to LA.

Too bad you weren't mature enough to give your children the intact family you brought them into. No self fulfillment is what it is all about with this generation of parents. Stay off your cell phones, stay out of the gym, stay put in stead of traveling to fulfill your immature needs. So sick of parents who crush their childrens world and turn around and say "We are committed to coparenting" I'm sure that is real comforting to your poor children. Selfish parents!!
Nikita Smyth
Posted at 7:58 PM on March 25, 2014
Agreed. Separation and divorce is so "acceptable" these days – putting the marriage first to give the kids the best of what they need is not as popular as this co-parenting crap. Sad reality of social decay – family is not the most important aspect of a parents life – they think that running after whatever makes them happy will be better for the child. How???? Selfishness reigns.
Posted at 8:12 PM on March 25, 2014
No, it's just more legal these days. Selfishness is nothing new. My grandfather never put his family first. He neglected them emotionally and financially to pursue other women. The fact that he remained married on paper and not in need does not make him or any other member of his generation who was similarly driven by selfish impulses any better than people today.
Posted at 8:10 PM on March 25, 2014
Parents don't have to be divorced for a home to be broken. My grandparents never divorced for religious reason but they led separate lives and he neglected his family in favor of his affairs. Each generation is the product of the previous generation. Also, the divorce rate has been holding steady if not improving slightly in recent history, and those people who do remain married are happier than the "successful" marriages of old, as they choose to be together and don't have to marry or remain together for legal or religious reasons, or to save face. Also, we don't know what happened behind closed doors. In any case, today's generations are not inferior to prior generations. We just don't hide behind pretense and false fronts as much. If you think things were so great in the past, you're seriously kidding yourself.
Posted at 9:31 PM on March 25, 2014
Ask the children if they buy into all this rationalization and justification! Their little world has been turned upside down! When you take vows and make commitments its expected you will keep them. So just because it doesn't feel as good as it once did and you have to put some work into it, nah lets just throw it away. So much for maturity!
Kids Survive Divorce
Posted at 10:00 PM on March 25, 2014
You know what's selfish? An unhappy marriage's effects on children when they can be happily divorced and still provide their kids with all the love and support they deserve. What would you rather have? two loving parents who do their best even though they are separated or two parents who "stay together" for the kids and fight? That's not healthy for the children at all. It would appear that you are the immature/selfish one here.

Wife Satisfaction
My wife is a very attractive lady. One night, a client of hers came to the house with documents for her to sign. We had a few glasses of wine and during the conversation; it transpired that he and my wife flirt. I suggested that they take it a little further and to my pleasure, they started kissing. He exposed her panties. This was a real turn on as I adore women's underwear. He stroked her gently on her panties for a while, until he began to perform oral. My wife was frantic with lust; she asked me if he could make love to her, which I agreed to. I watched as they made love. This was a fantastic time to see my wife so excited. It has been a tremendous boost to our sex lives. Perhaps one day we will do it again.

Hello members of Think Atheist. I am about to post a comment I made in the 'The black people' discussion.
It is as follows.
"It depends on 'how' you criticize a group of people.
It is a fact that in the USA , the highest %'s of crime is due to Blacks - and generally there is a positive correlation between the population density of blacks in large cities to an increase in crime rate.
It is also a fact that most inner city schools are a majority Black. They also have the lowest test scores.
It is also a fact that most 'hip-hop' and 'rap' music on the market includes a lot of Black people cursing, and talking about doing drugs in their cars, killing cops, hittin up dem 'hoes', dropping out of school, etc.
It is also a fact that there are many Blacks in this country who openly speak out about the Black community and criticize them ... and rightfully so.
But this is obviously not because they are Black. It is because of social and economic reasons. You need to be careful how you analyze the situation - to say these symptoms are because they are 'Black' is just disgustingly ignorant. But the fact does remain that blacks are a problem in the USA communities.
My uneducated reason for this - is because after slavery was abolished - Black people were still either feared / hated / put down / segregated , etc ... and only in the past few decades have they started to be accepted as 'human beings' by the vast majority of whites.
But I will say publically that they are not doing their job as a group in our country to better themselves and to make great lives for their children. Many are too busy putting down education - getting involved in drugs - getting young teen women pregnant (or getting themselves pregnant) - and paying too much attention to popular black media that makes millions of dollars every year keeping blacks in their same positions.
It's not cool to impregnate - be a drug dealer - talk about killing cops - breaking the law - poppin bottles in da ice like a blizzard - or using extremely vulgar language - or using a form of music lyric ebonix.
With all that said, if evidence was put forth that white populations were in fact less intelligent - this would easily be accepted. If it points to Blacks - riots would occur. I personally believe that Black people as a race are stronger - bigger - more athletic compared to their white / asian counterparts. This is easily observed.
Why can't the IQ or intelligence also be relative? I'm not saying it's true - I'm just saying it's a possibility - as I assume intelligence is part of the genes. As is your height - weight - etc.
Fire away at me - I'm sure most of you who criticize my post will have misread it thinking I'm being racist - when in fact I'm not.
"Blacks are safer today when they are amongst whites than when they are among their own community." (Think about this!)
Yeah, white people treat blacks so inhumanely ... Yawn.
You know why white people don't go to the inner city at night by themselves? Because it's literally a choice between Life and Death.
The statistics show that Black men purposefully hunt down and seek out whites for most of their 'violent' crimes. Because most black communities have very few white people in them - black people must literally go out of their way to accomplish these horrible crimes.
Black on white crime is a REAL issue. Anyone who says otherwise has an agenda.
7 times more likely to commit homicide!!!
If you look closely - blacks have an exorbitantly high % for homicide due to drugs ... maybe THAT is why there are more incarcerations for black drug 'users' ... COUGH ... oh sorry ... I meant to say drug DEALERS.
The term 'users' is mistaken. Black people are the ones more likely to be dealing cocaine - than using it.
Blacks also have a higher rate of returning to crime. 2.4 previous convictions for the typical average black person compared to 1.8 for the typical average white person.
Blacks commit 52% of ALL murders. Yes, those poor black people are just being 'put down by whitey'. That means out of all murders in the USA , 52% of them were committed by Blacks. When about 12% of the entire population is Black.
Granted, I do realize that if a vast majority of Black males are sent to prison - then their communities have less black males to sustain them - with the children of the black males without a father ... this is a systemic problem, obviously. But what to do?
I think the prison system itself needs to be seriously reexamined.
So overall, blacks target whites to an almost sickeningly amount more than whites target blacks for violent crimes.
We need to stop this vocal and viral strain that teaches White people are 'putting down' the blacks.
In the end, the blacks need to be held accountable for their high crime rates. Call it incarceration if you will, but if I was a police officer, and I knew most drug dealers were black skinned, I would be pulling over black skinned people as well.
If I was a Judge, and I knew blacks had a much higher rate of repeated crime - I would use the sentences necessary.
Flame away.
Sir, with all due respect, I thought I already examined those statistics.
In the one link - it shows a very high rate of homicide due to drug relations. This means black people are more likely to murder other blacks (or whites) due to drug relations.
I'm pretty sure there is also a debate about whether or not the term 'user' is even correct. When you are dealing the cocaine - that is no longer 'using'. Sure, the 'users' could be the same % , but I'm willing to bet more blacks are into the dealing part of it - than whites - or perhaps white people are just better at not getting caught (which is ALSO not very evidential)
If one color skinned group is more likely to murder others over drugs compared to another color skinned group - I find there is justification in targeting a certain skin color.
Just like if White people were more likely to sell cocaine - and commit violent crimes due to drug relations - I'd be pulling whitey over as well.
I'm also guessing the blacks that get pulled over aren't always pulled over by white officers. Hmmm .... statistics for that would be interesting.
Also, as the article mentions, 2.4 compared to 1.8 for previous convictions.
It's not my fault blacks would statistically have a higher number of previous convictions which would tend to give them a higher incarceration rate.
and I think it's a travesty if any black man is sentenced for marijuana use. But white people get sentenced for the same thing.
everything I've read so far is talking about cocaine though.
But I'm not sure your conspiracy theory is correct.
You're saying white people are intentionally creating laws to subjugate black people? I find that a bit hard to believe ...
Actually the laws themselves give higher weights to repeated offenders. It's the system. Blame that.
If I was a Judge, I would follow those laws. So I find that to be a good trait in a Judge.
Just like if a white guy had 6 previous convictions. I'd slam my hammer down, and get rid of him.
Skin has nothing to do with it.
LoL, yeah, it kind of does. Too bad I can't edit that.
Freudian slip? Hmm ...
Evidence please?
If my brother was murdered by a white man - is he going to get a special pass and get let go because he is white?
If my sister was raped by the flying spaghetti monster tentacles - would that thing get a special pass?
I think you're trying to say criminal charges in relation to drugs. As that seems to be a big motif in these discussions.
And I already gave reasons as to why this is so.
But he lumped together 'conviction rate' without specifying where most of those are coming from.
I put forth statistics that speak about 'other' types of offenses and violent crimes.
I also mentioned that as I read in some articles, the blacks are more likely to be DEALING, not just using. I also mentioned that homicide rates are statistically higher in regards to drug relations ... meaning blacks are more likely to kill due to drug relations.
Those 2 things combined, I don't see why it's an issue.
Perhaps it is true blacks are easier to see when you're sitting in a Police Vehicle - bored - with nothing to do.
But I also think there is a legitimate reason blacks get convicted more often.
Not just drugs. Serious, violent crime will cause the police to pursue the criminal almost regardless of race, but there is sometimes an element of racism in law enforcement even with regard to those crimes. More important, is the fact that whites are usually sufficiently empowered in other ways and thus use different criminal activities to achieve their goals. Whites don't hold up liquor stores; they run "hedge funds". Whites don't commit murder; they pull the strings of power or use gossip to ruin their victim's life instead.
Based on my personal, subjective experience, whites commit as much crime as blacks but it's less dramatic and tends to be overlooked both for that reason and because the perpetrators are white.
So now you're arguing that white people get away with their illegal acts more because they have 'support' ... really!?
I suppose if you want to talk about merely breaking the law - I'm talking about 'Violent' crimes.
Homicide rates , murder rates , things like attacking victims.
I'm obviously not saying that Blacks have an 'anger gene'. I'm saying that this is a REAL issue - and to call it 'racist' for pointing it out - seems to be in a way a form of enabling.

Title of the picture
Long Endurance Multi-Intelligence Vehicle (LEMV). A specific function surveillance hybrid air vehicle. The vehicles derive their flight capability from a mix of aerodynamic lift and Helium buoyancy.
Laminated fabric construction hull with internal catenary system supporting the payload module. The hull's aerodynamic shape, an elliptical cross-section allied to a cambered longitudinal shape, provides up to 40% of the vehicle's lift. The internal diaphragms required to support this shape allow for a limited amount of compartmentalisation further enhancing the fail-safe nature of the vehicle. Multiple ballonets located fore and aft in each of the hulls provide pressure control.
Profiled pneumatic tubes on the underside of the two outer hulls provide an amphibious capability. Tubes are 'sucked-in' for a clean-in-flight profile. System shares use of ballonet fans with hull pressure system.
4 x 350 hp 4 litre V8 direct injection, diesel engines. Supercharged induction system. Two engines mounted forward on the hull and two on the stern of the hull for cruise operation. All four are configured in ducts with blown vanes to allow vectored thrust for take off/landing/ground handling operation.
Located on centerline; comprises 3 primary areas as follows:
Flight Deck:
Optionally Manned,Remotely piloted,Autonomous

My friend told me she was reading an article online that said she was bisexual and I looked it up and several said she was and only a few said she wasn't.I know she is married to a guy and has a baby on the way but,I just wanted to see if any of you guys knew or what do you think.
Hi Pink R O C K Z,
P!nk is straight, (unfortunately hahaha! ) I have seen several interviews where she clears up this rumor. She has dated girls before when she was younger, but she is straight. There are many rumors that she is bisexual though, maybe because she is not "girly" enough or she is seen as "too strong" so people like to label her as something she isn't. Here is a video of her talking to Perez Hilton, she talks about her sexuality about halfway though it. Hope this helps!

I'm troubled, I'm brilliant, and miserable too, that's why I am so funny~

66 Years of His Majesty the King's Reign
The longest-reigning monarch in Thai history, His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej will have reigned for 66 years in 2012. On the fifth of May each year, Thailand celebrates Coronation Day, which marks the coronation anniversary of His Majesty the King.
On 5 May 1950, His Majesty the King had a coronation ceremony performed in the Grand Palace, in accordance with the royal tradition. The ceremony took place four years after he actually assumed his kingship on 9 June 1946, following the death of his elder brother, King Ananda Mahidol.
By tradition, the royal coronation ceremony signifies the official recognition of the ruling monarch by the entire society. A monarch who has not performed the royal coronation ceremony is regarded as an uncrowned king; he is referred to by his original name, adding "in charge of the reign," and accorded a seven-tiered royal umbrella, not the full-honor nine-tiered one. An order from the monarch cannot be considered a royal command until a royal coronation ceremony is performed in accordance with ancient court tradition.
During the coronation ceremony 62 years ago, His Majesty pronounced the traditional oath of accession: "We shall reign with righteousness for the benefits and happiness of the Siamese people." From that day onward, His Majesty has applied himself steadfastly to the diligent performance of royal tasks and activities, and striven to overcome all obstacles with patience and understanding. He leads a simple, virtuous life and interacts with his subjects unpretentiously, out of a conviction that "the suffering of the people is the suffering of the King, also."
The fact that His Majesty the King has reigned for 66 years has given him a great advantage, as he has dealt with people from all over and in different situations. His views and suggestions are of great importance, and the Government places value in them. His advice is sought in major decisions affecting the country as a whole.
His Majesty is known around the world as a king who is devoted to working hard for the well-being of his subjects. His useful advice has helped in the improvement of their living conditions. More than 4,000 projects have been carried out under his initiatives, mainly to raise the standards of rural life and enable his subjects to be self-reliant.
Thai people are well aware of what he has done for them and recognize his great benevolence in pursuing his concerns for the benefits and happiness of the people. His Majesty has recently donated 84 million baht to the start-up fund for the establishment of Utokapat Foundation under his royal patronage. The foundation will work with various water-related agencies in handling water management in Thailand appropriately.
The foundation was established because the Thai people suffered severe floods in 2011, when His Majesty called for collective efforts to alleviate the flood problem. He also gave advice on proper water management to ease the flooding situation and the plights of his subjects.

Bye Bye Bitcoin
PEIn what is perhaps the most inevitable headline of the last couple months, the government has begun closing in on Bitcoin. The Washington Post reports that the Department of Homeland Security has frozen the Dwolla account of the primary Bitcoin exchange, Mt. Gox. Importantly, the DHS is in charge of enforcing federal anti-money laundering and drug smuggling laws - and it seems that they are starting the ball rolling on a systematic crackdown.
Agencies have issued guidelines and signaled that they are monitoring the situation, but none have taken active steps to force Bitcoin intermediaries to comply with federal regulations.
That hands-off stance may have started to change this week when the feds took action against Mt. Gox, the world's leading Bitcoin exchange. Many people use Dwolla, a PayPal-like payment network, to send dollars to their Mt. Gox accounts. They then use those dollars to buy Bitcoins. On Tuesday, Dwolla announced that it had frozen Mt. Gox's account at the request of federal investigators. It's the first federal action against the currency.
CNet has confirmed that the asset seizure was initiated by Homeland Security Investigations, a division of Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Among other things, that agency has the power to enforce laws against money laundering and drug smuggling.
But either way, the move isn't very surprising.
For years, Bitcoin supporters have touted the currency's potential to resist government surveillance and censorship. They point to the example of Wikileaks, the whistleblower Web site whose access to funds dried up after the federal government applied informal pressure to intermediaries such as PayPal to cut off payments. The Bitcoin network is fully decentralized, so there is no one with the ability to monitor the network and block illicit transactions. If Wikileaks had funded itself through the Bitcoin network, the government wouldn't have had such an easy time freezing its funds.
Curious to hear some thoughts, as I know there are several Bitcoin enthusiasts on here.
"For all the tribulations in our lives, for all the troubles that remain in the world, the decline of violence is an accomplishment we can savor, and an impetus to cherish the forces of civilization and enlightenment that made it possible."

Probably wall street pushing this, an alternative to currency exchange fees, credit card fees etc. and they don't like it.

Bitcoin is like that teenager with a stick with a red doo-rag bag full of cheetos tied to the end of it, deciding to "fight the system" and run away from home. But ho-ho-ho, he's back home in 3 days and realizes "fighting the system" is better done in a heated home.
Not ragging on Bitcoin, it was amusing to watch, but it had no substance to begin with.
It seems as though people are
?It seems as though people are significantly worried at this stage. The price is still quite strong.
What you are missing out on
OWhat you are missing out on is that unlike previous government crackdowns on virtual currencies, this time, the entity being attacked was not the currency, nor even its exchange (Mt Gox, which is not US based) but a particular service provider who supposedly broke US law (by not being registered as a payments business in the US).
Bitcoin is alive and well, in fact since the crash it's been hovering comfortably around 100-120, which is a good deal higher than its previous stable level pre-crash. If nothing else, this tells you people still find value in the thing. Wait til the next deposit seizure in Europe...
There's no bitcoin entity to shut down. At most, you could make it harder for non-IT-literate people to use it; but the website that made bitcoin famous, Silk Road, has shown that you can easily run a completely illegal website inside the US with no issues. Even if somehow, the US government passes a deal with Japan giving it authority to shut down MtGox, other exchanges might spring up, about as easily discoverable as the identity of Satoshi, the bitcoin creator(s?).
And this is why people get excited about bitcoin - because unlike other attempts at replacing the USD for a small subset of people who do not trust it, like e-gold, Liberty Dollar, etc. it is not centralised, so the efforts required to shut it down will scale up with the value an entity would gain from shutting it down*. This is afaik the first time a virtual currency has managed this and the key innovation that provides its value.
You have seen similar concepts in file sharing; despite various governments' best efforts to stem what is turning into a (supposed) multi billion dollar loss for dozens of corporations, the Pirate Bay and torrents are alive and well. Shutting down Napster just allowed for new, better incumbents. You'll note file sharing is illegal (if it infringes copyright) yet I am willing to bet 90% of this forum's users do it.
*should the government, or a mafia group, choose to destroy bitcoin, they could attempt to muster computing power equivalent to 51% of the network - which would cost hundreds of millions of dollars, and this cost rises every day - and even then, would only be able to manufacture fake transactions for the duration of the time that they can maintain 51% of the network. This is clearly not worth it.
It was fun while it lasted,
OIt was fun while it lasted, but realistically, who thought it would?
Get busy living
Even if Bitcoins are only
OEven if Bitcoins are only used for illegal transactions, that still leaves them with a ton of potential users. The people saying they're going to replace the dollar are stupid, but I think they will still have a valuable niche use.
It is ridiculous that we have
IBIt is ridiculous that we have allowed our government to grow this powerful. They try to get rid of competing currencies because they are threatened by the idea that they might no longer be able to have complete control of money in the US. Our current monetary system is unsustainable and yet the government continues to convince the American people that giving it all of this power is for the people's benefit.
Fuck the government, END THE FED.
I'm in agreement with
REI'm in agreement with NorthSider--if the federal government wanted to it could easily stop Bitcoin and others in their tracks by simply disallowing the acceptance of those payments as legal tender for private transactions. If retailers are not on board then Bitcoin and others will be relegated to the niche market and will never gain widespread usage in the U.S. The feds could easily make arrangements with other G7 economic powers--without these important economies on board with Bitcoin you're just talking about a black market novelty.

18. Out of Fear, Toward Worse
Out of Fear, Toward Worse
I'd never gone further away from home than Michel Delving, save for the summer I spent in Tighfeld with Ham and our Uncle Andy. Now I was leaving the Shire, and most like wasn't going to return.
The Red Book tells most of it, the walk which turned into fleeing when the Riders come after us. We had no idea what they was, although Mr. Frodo figured out right enough they was from Mordor.
Huh. I say and write the word easily enough now, but then I'd barely heard tell of it, and it were a name of terror on the edge of stories of the worst darkness. Mordor. What we didn't know of it then! 'Tweren't real to us, you know--but even though I knew Mr. Bilbo'd been there even Rivendell didn't seem quite real, neither, nor even Bree, and I'd known several as had been to Bree, when I was a lad, at least.
But now we was leaving the Shire, and it were like going into a horrible dream by choice.
Then we found ourselves having to trust this dark stranger in Bree, this Man called Strider. And I were so suspicious of him, with his hints of danger and his knowing too much and the sheath at his belt. I'd never seen no sword save Sting, which Mr. Bilbo'd hung over the fireplace in his study, till he went away, at least. Then I knew he must have took it with him, as it were gone and that dragon map hung where the sword used to be. We had the long knives from the Barrow which old Tom Bombadil gave us to carry, and Pippin insisted we call them our swords, but they wasn't, not really. The sheath Strider wore--now, that were a proper sheath for a sword, and it made me proper terrified. They thought I were powerful brave, speaking up to challenge this Man, but it were just the way my fear came out in me. I was so afraid of that sword he must have in that old sheath--and you could tell it was an old sheath, very old and worn and well cared for, and once it must have been passing fair, wound with silver wire--but now I know it wasn't silver, but mithril--and fair gems, and runes of protection, like out of the old tales.
But this were no Elf lord out of the old legends--this was a Man, a Man who'd admitted to overhearing us on the road by the end of the Barrowdowns, who'd followed us in stealth, who knew Mr. Frodo's right name, who needed a bathe worse than we did, who had a stubbly beard on his chin and suspicion neath his brows, and who looked on us with the same caution as we felt toward him. And his voice changed as we spoke, from coarse to fair-spoken, from warning to authority. And I didn't know what to think of him.
Then he pulled the sheath from his belt, pulled the hilt of his sword from it, but it were broke off short, and then spilt out onto the table the rest of the blade--I didn't know what to think. Why was he wandering the wild with a broken sword? It made no sense at all, though Mr. Frodo seemed to know more about it than I did. There were a sense of recognition in his eyes when he saw that blade, though he weren't yet completely certain what it meant. But he'd read more'n I'd ever done of the Second Age of Middle Earth. I'd studied the First Age, which was the age of the great Elves. I had no idea at the time that the sword Strider carried was the one given to Barahir and then carried by Beren and later Elros son of Earendil the Mariner, Elros who'd chosen to live as a mortal as his grandmothers had chosen. But I kept thinking, if we're out in the wild and those Black Riders come on us, what use will a broken sword be? And the terror grew. I didn't really start to trust him till Glorfindel came to us and knew Strider and gave him words of warning--it were almost the first Elf as I'd ever truly seen, and I membered what Mr. Gandalf had said to me of having mistaken Frodo for an Elf the first time as I'd seen him.
I barely realized we'd got finally to Rivendell. Once Glorfindel's horse carried Mr. Frodo away it became a blur, a horrid blur. I member the kindling of the fire and the run forward with burning sticks to frighten the black horses and their Riders into the river as it rose to overwhelm them and carry them off--but that memory is twisted. Over the river, right on the edge of the water, Asfaloth stood over a crumpled shape, and the water swept toward it, and I feared it, too, would be carried away. And I'd swear I saw the water touch the shape, then draw back as if recognizing this was not an enemy, encircling it and the Elf's horse to guard them till we got across.
I don't member crossing the water, but I member Strider gently lifting Frodo's body from where the water circled it, the fear for him. And I realized then that Strider, too, had come to love my Master, saw the glow of him. Pippin were wild with worry and insistent he be allowed to see till Glorfindel calmed him, and Merry's face was white with fear and marked with soot and smoke. And Strider ran with Frodo's body in his arms, singing a healing song as he'd done neath Weathertop, as he'd sung from time to time as he sat on watch during the days we struggled through the hills betwixt that place and Rivendell. Whenever Frodo'd manage to sleep Strider'd sung that healing song, and I'd recognized some of the words, and now I knew it, a call to Estë and Lord Ulmo and Manwë and the Lady Elbereth herself to guard him round, circle him with might and the cleansing of water and the light of stars and the healing of rest. I'd seen those words years ago in a poem old Mr. Bilbo'd been translating and as he'd had Mr. Frodo copy at the front of a healer's herbal he'd been translating for his cousin Missus Menegilda Brandybuck, Lady of Brandy Hall. Now as I realized what it was as Strider'd been singing, all my lingering fear fell away of me, and I hurried after, leading Bill as Asfaloth followed after his own master, left to ward us as Strider ran forward with Frodo in his arms.
They came out with a stretcher, and gently Aragorn laid Frodo upon it, covering him with a soft, warm blanket which had been brought as well. And with those who met us was a woman, tall, dark haired, an Elf maiden of such loveliness as I thought would stop my heart with awe. And she and Strider spoke as they hurried forward, the woman on one side, Strider on the other, both with hands on Frodo as he lay still, his eyes half open but seeing naught about him. And we followed after. Someone took Bill's bridle from my hands, and I ran to try to keep up with the bearers, who moved gently but swift as racers.
I couldn't take it all in--the Lord Elrond at the door as we arrived, his face still yet filled with concern, the Elvish pouring out of Strider as he came within hearing, and one word I remembered from my lessons long ago from Mr. Bilbo and Frodo--Adar. Strider was speaking to the Lord Elrond as if the Elven Lord were his father! And the Elvish Lord beckoned for Strider to come with him as they led the way into the Last Homely House. And suddenly there was another Elf following a small figure as was hurrying forward, its face white as its hair--it were Mr. Bilbo, coming forward to meet his lad at last!
They couldn't move me from Mr. Frodo's side while they probed and prodded. Strider brought out that horrid, black knife hilt again, and just as Strider had done at Weathertop the Lord Elrond sang over it, and a mist seemed to rise over it and he looked into it as if he could see something there. Then he signed for Strider to wrap it up again, had them bring a wooden tray and lay it upon it, and told them to take it outside the valley and burn it. I didn't member the mist showing over it when Strider'd sung over it, but apparently this was some kind of Elf magic as could tell them about the foul thing. And after they'd poked and prodded and Elrond opened the wound again to try to probe to find the splinter they seemed sure was still inside, suddenly Strider started to fold, his face almost as white as Frodo's and Bilbo's. And I heard Lord Elrond call out, "Estel!" in dismay, and Elves came forward to help Strider stand and to take him out. Estel means hope, I thought, membering again the lessons I had from Mr. Bilbo when I was a lad. What a funny thing to cry out, I thought, when you see someone start to fall, and then someone was scooping me up and sitting me in a chair, and bringing me some more of the miruvor cordial to sip. I didn't even realize just how done in as I was until I found Bilbo afore me with a cup of broth in his hand, insisting I sip it but sip it slowly.
They fixed a pallet over to the side for me when they realized they couldn't make me leave, and Mr. Bilbo and Gandalf stayed when they'd left herbs steeping in a kettle of water over the fire, after they'd washed Frodo and cleansed the wound, and the Elves left the room. They sat on either side of the bed where Frodo was sleeping, and Frodo called out after a while as if he was hurting, hurting bad. Lord Elrond came back in the dark of the night and leaned over Frodo for a bit, and sang the song Strider'd sung on the road, but with more power. Then he were leaning over me, looking into my eyes, smiling down on me, and bade me sleep. And I slept.
The dreams came and went for Frodo. I couldn't make out what he was saying much of the time, but Gandalf seemed able to do so. And I'm sure at least one of those dreams was of the Eye searching for him; but Elrond came and sang a different song, facing south and east, a song like the running of water such as that we heard all round us outside, and Frodo calmed.
'Twere a few nights afore Lord Elrond felt Frodo was strong enough for him to probe the wound one more time, and this time he found it, the splinter. He had Strider aside him, and Glorfindel, and Erestor and other Elvish lords of one sort or another, and together they sang over Frodo as Elrond and Strider cleansed him one last time, then wound a fresh bandage about his chest. When they was done, I come forward and looked into his face, and it was clearing at last, and the pain was gone, and a hint of pink was starting to show in his lips, which had gone more and more blue over the past week. And I knew he was going to be fine.
A few days later, after the Council, while Mr. Frodo and Mr. Bilbo were talking in Mr. Bilbo's rooms, I found Strider sitting on a balcony, looking down. I was all confused, and needed to talk. He was quiet, his pipe in his hand. He was dressed in his leathers again and his stained cloak, and I wondered if he'd just been out riding, but he said that no, he was going to go out soon with the sons of Lord Elrond to seek knowledge of what had happened to the Black Riders after the water swept their horses away.
"I'm sorry, Strider," I said, "sorry I couldn't trust you afore."
He just smiled and leaned forward, touching my shoulder and then turning my face up to look into his eyes. His eyes were a dark grey--maybe a hint of blue and green to them, but mostly grey. "Sam," he said gently, "you only acted and spoke out of your deep love for Frodo, whom you plainly cherish. How can I fault that?" He sighed, and looked toward the part of Rivendell where Mr. Bilbo's rooms was. "He is healing so swiftly, now that cursed thing is out of his shoulder. I am still amazed, Sam, that he wasn't overcome. I couldn't have borne it that long, I fear."
"You love him, too, Strider," I said.
"Yes, I do. As, I think, I do all of you." He were quiet a bit, then whispered, "As I was singing the hymn to Estë, Ulmo, Manwë, and Elbereth over him I felt I perceived a light shining from his heart, Sam. I've seen something similar in the greatest of the Elves, and a few times, when he has come close to uncloaking himself, in Mithrandir--that's the Elvish name for Gandalf, Sam. But never before had I seen such in a mortal.
"Frodo son of Drogo is a most unusual individual, Samwise son of Hamfast. I cannot begin to understand what the Powers have graced him with, but he draws love and honor to himself as a lodestone draws iron shards." Then he looked back into my eyes, deep in, if you take my meaning. "I would do anything within my power to aid him. I will do anything to protect him, if I am allowed."
We finally turned away from each other and looked out over the waters and the falls that fill the vale. Then I asked, "Begging your pardon, Mr. Strider, but why did you call Lord Elrond 'Father'?"
He laughed. "My father died when I was only about two years old, Sam. He was the Dúnedan, the Lord of the descendants of Numenor remaining here in the ancient realm of Arnor. He was Arathorn, the heir of Isildur and Valandil, and would have been King of Arnor, if the realm had not fallen to ruin in the days of King Arvedui, our ancestor.
"The Enemy has long tried to destroy the descendants of Elendil here in the north kingdom as he managed in Gondor, and my mother brought me here for protection. All my ancestors have been fostered here from the days of Valandil, taught to rule and lead, to fight and heal, to speak many tongues and to understand the motivations of many peoples so as to protect what is left in this land that is still green and growing, still capable of flowering and bearing fruit.
"I came here early, for the search for me by the Enemy was intense, and many were dying to hide and protect my mother and myself. So she gave out that I'd died of fever, and they brought me here in secret, and the Lord Elrond raised me as his own son and gave me the child's name of Estel."
"Then it were your name he were calling out when you started to fall the other day, just after we arrived."
"Yes, Sam. When he saw I was falling down from exhaustion he called me by my child's name. He almost always calls me by my rightful name now, but when he fears for me he still names me as he did when I was a boy and thought of him simply as my Adar."
"And you're really named Aragorn?"
He nodded. "Yes, Aragorn son of Arathorn, heir of Elendil, Isildur, and Valandil. I was twenty years when Adar told me my true name and heritage. And I have wandered far throughout the ancient bounds of Arnor and beyond, learning the ways of those who will be my people, my allies, and my enemies, if we win through the coming war. Many names and titles I've borne, and there will be a few more ere all is finished."
"Do you mind if I still call you Strider? I mean, it's how I've thought of you for so long now, and my mind doesn't wind its way around changes in how it thinks of folks easy."
He laughed. "I'd be honored if you would choose to do so, Sam."
"I hoped you wouldn't mind, sir. I mean, when you're king and all, I suspect I'll still think of you as Strider even then." I had a thought and started to laugh. "Can you imagine the face of old Butterbur when he realizes the wicked Ranger Strider as he'd warned us about is now his king? Bet he'll about choke of shock!" And we both laughed. He has a wonderful laugh, Strider has, deep and filling. Just wish he had more chance to let it out.
Maybe he does, now.
The talk with Gandalf was longer. He, too, told me of the light he saw shining from Frodo, specially his left arm, as where he'd been stabbed. And he warned me that the wound would never really heal, that it couldn't heal here in Middle Earth.
And he said a funny thing, that he'd had a vision of Frodo as a glass filled with light as with water, for eyes to see as could.
But it seemed to me that he was well enough--more solemn, but still Frodo, still my beloved Master.

Years ago, general practitioners often had to "squeeze in" time between clinic appointments to check on their patients who were in the hospital. In the 1990s a new medical specialty called Hospital Medicine began evolving to help in these kind of situations.
Doctors in the new specialty are called "hospitalists." They are trained to care for patients with serious illnesses or injuries in the hospital. Hospitalists know the "ins and outs" of working in a hospital setting and they work closely with nurses and other caregivers who play an important role in helping patients recover.
Patients in the hospital receive attentive care with the reassurance that a Hospital Medicine specialist is on-site at the hospital, around the clock.
Primary-care providers can continue to see other patients who need care in the clinic while knowing their hospitalized patients are receiving timely care and attention from a trained and trusted physician, 24/7.
When patients leave the hospital, the hospitalists provide a smooth handoff to the patients' primary-care providers to ensure well-coordinated care after the hospital stay.
PeaceHealth Medical Group has several experienced hospitalists who provide care for inpatients at PeaceHealth St. John Medical Center.
If you (or a loved one) are hospitalized at St. John, your primary-care provider may ask a PeaceHealth Medical Group hospitalist to provide care during your stay. If you have questions or need to reach the hospitalist on call, talk to a nurse in your unit.
Note: Hospitalists do not have clinic hours and do not see patients by appointment.
Hospitalists and the nursing staff will create a discharge plan for patients who are ready to leave the hospital. The plan includes steps you will need to take to continue getting better at home.

2011 Subaru Legacy 2.5i Premium
ProsGreat Gas Mileage for an AWD Car, beautiful interior, built in surround sound speaker system standard, very comfortable, good power, great in the snow ConsThe automatic transmission will sometimes wait for the car to hit between 4000 and 5000 rpm's before shifting
Simply Amazing — I love this car. I used to have a 1998 Subaru Legacy which was destroyed in a head on collision. The fact that my brother and I weren't hurt at all in that crash made the decision to buy another Legacy that much easier. I test drove 10 total cars when deciding what to buy, and the 2011 Subaru Legacy was the only memorable car I drove. The elegant interior and sleek new exterior design grabbed my attention immediately. I feel luxurious driving in this car, and I only own the Premium trim model. Subaru provided me with one of the best driving experiences of my life in my 98 Legacy, and so far it's been another outstanding decision going with the 2011 Legacy. This car is worth every single penny. Primary Use: Commuting to work
