Painting applied to and made integral with the surface of a wall or ceiling. Its roots can be found in the universal desire that led prehistoric peoples to create cave paintings—the desire to decorate their surroundings and express their ideas and beliefs. The Romans produced large numbers of murals in Pompeii and Ostia, but mural painting (not synonymous with fresco) reached its highest degree of creative achievement in Europe with the work of such Renaissance masters as Masaccio, Fra Angelico, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Raphael. In the 20th century, the mural was embraced by artists of the Cubist and Fauve movements in Paris, revolutionary painters in Mexico (e.g., Diego Rivera, José Clemente Orozco, David Alfaro Siqueiros), and Depression-era artists under the sponsorship of the U.S. government (e.g., Ben Shahn, Thomas Hart Benton).

Any of various upright constructions used to divide or enclose a room or building. In traditional masonry construction, bearing walls supported the weight of floors and roofs, but modern steel and reinforced-concrete frames, as well as heavy timber and other skeletal structures, require exterior walls only for shelter. Some urban buildings dispense with walls on the ground floor, extending outdoor plazas under the building and permitting easier access to elevators, escalators, and stairs. In masonry construction, all types of floors and roofs except domes are most easily supported on straight, parallel walls. Nonbearing walls, used when loads are carried by girders, beams, or other members, can be either curtain walls or infill of brick, block, or other material. Seealso cavity wall, retaining wall, shear wall.

Wall constructed to hold in place a mass of earth or prevent the erosion of an embankment. It may also be battered, with the face inclined toward the load it is bearing. The most basic type of reinforced retaining wall is the massive concrete gravity wall, which is prevented from falling over by the sheer weight and volume of its mass. A cantilever (L-shaped) retaining wall resists overturning by means of cantilever footings, spread footings (see foundation) shaped to resist overturning and sliding.

Street in New York City where many major U.S. financial institutions are located. The street, in southern Manhattan, is narrow and short and extends only about seven blocks from Broadway to the East River. It was named for an earthen wall built by Dutch settlers in 1653 to repel an expected English invasion. Even before the Civil War it was recognized as the nation's financial capital, and it remains a worldwide symbol of high finance. The Wall Street, or financial, district contains the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The district is also the headquarters for many investment banks, securities dealers, utilities and insurance companies, and brokerage firms.

Continuous Roman defensive barrier. Begun by Hadrian in AD 122, the wall guarded the northwestern frontier of the province of Britain from barbarian (particularly Celtic) invaders. It extended 73 mi (118 km) from coast to coast, from Wallsend (Segedunum) to Bowness. It had towers, gates, and forts at regular intervals; a ditch fronted it and an earthwork (the vallum) ran behind it. It was briefly abandoned in favour of the Antonine Wall, but it returned to use until circa 410. Portions remain visible today.

Defensive wall, northern China. One of the largest building-construction projects ever carried out, it runs (with all its branches) about 4,500 mi (7,300 km) east to west from the Bo Hai (Gulf of Chihli) to a point deep in Central Asia. Large parts of the fortification date from the 7th to the 4th century BC. In the 3rd century BC the emperor Shihuangdi connected existing defensive walls into a single system fortified by watchtowers. These served both to guard the rampart and to communicate with the capital, Xianyang (near modern Xi'an) by signal—smoke by day and fire by night. Originally constructed partly of masonry and earth, it was faced with brick in its eastern portion. It was rebuilt in later times, especially in the 15th and 16th centuries. The basic wall is about 23–26 ft (7–8 m) high; at intervals towers rise above it to varying heights. It was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1987.

Barrier surrounding West Berlin that closed off East Germans access to West Berlin from 1961 to 1989 and served as a symbol of the Cold War's division of East and West Germany. The barrier was built in response to the flight of about 2.5 million East Germans to West Germany in the years 1949–61. First erected on the night of Aug. 12–13, 1961, it developed into a system of concrete walls topped with barbed wire and guarded with watchtowers, gun emplacements, and mines. It was opened in the 1989 democratization that swept through eastern Europe and has been largely torn down.

A wall is a usually solid structure that defines and sometimes protects an area. Most commonly, a wall delineates a building and supports its superstructure, separates space in buildings into rooms, or protects or delineates a space in the open air. There are three principal types of structural walls: building walls, exterior boundary walls, and retaining walls.
Building walls frequently become works of art externally and internally, such as when featuring mosaic work or when murals are painted on them; or as design foci when they exhibit textures or painted finishes for effect.
On a ship, the walls separating compartments are termed "bulkheads", whilst the thinner walls separating cabins are termed "partitions".
In architecture and civil engineering, the term curtain wall refers to the facade of a building which is not load-bearing but functions as decoration, finish, front, face, or history preservation.
Boundary walls include privacy walls, boundary-marking walls on property, and city walls. These intergrade into fences; the conventional differentiation is that a fence is of minimal thickness and often is open in nature, while a wall is usually more than a nominal thickness and is completely closed, or opaque. More to the point, if an exterior structure is made of wood or wire, it is generally referred to as a fence, while if it is made of masonry, it is considered a wall. A common term for both is barrier, convenient if it is partly a wall and partly a fence, for example the Berlin Wall. Another kind of wall/fence ambiguity is the ha-ha which is set below ground level, so as not to interrupt a view yet acting as a barrier to cattle for example.
Before the invention of artillery, many European cities had protective walls. In fact, the English word "wall" is derived from Latin vallum, which was a type of fortification wall. Since they are no longer relevant for defense, the cities have grown beyond their walls, and many of the walls have been torn down. Extreme examples of boundary walls include the Great Wall of China and Hadrian's Wall. A modern functional example was the Berlin Wall, which divided Germany.
In areas of rocky soils around the world, farmers have often pulled large quantities of stone out of their fields to make farming easier, and have stacked those stones to make walls that either mark the field boundary, or the property boundary, or both.
Retaining walls are a special type of wall, that may be either external to a building or part of a building, that serves to provide a barrier to the movement of earth, stone or water. The ground surface or water on one side of a retaining wall will be noticeably higher than on the other side. A dike is one type of retaining wall, as is a levee, a load-bearing foundation wall, and a sea wall.

The Food and Drug Administration is taking a hard look at medical radiation because of evidence that Americans get too much of it from tests.
The average American's dose has grown sixfold in the past few decades.
Americans get the most medical radiation in the world, accounting for half of the most advanced procedures that use radiation. The consequences of too much radiation often don't show up for years. And there are no federal rules on radiation dose, except for mammograms.
The FDA is looking at ways to reduce and keep track of a person's exposure. One idea is to require device makers to print the radiation dose on each X-ray or other image.
The FDA is also pushing industry and doctors to set standard doses for common tests such as CT scans.

Still, the question of whether Israel has provided adequate protection to those whom its own laws obligate it to protect pops up elsewhere. Both the gay Israeli Arab and the woman who suffered domestic abuse were granted asylum when immigration authorities found that the government had failed to protect them.
Other Israeli residents who passed the high bar of proving persecution and clear threat include female victims of human trafficking who were smuggled through the Sinai border into the country. These women faced imprisonment in Israel until their cases were resolved. Many were ultimately deported to their country of origin. But some were simply released and made their way to the United States, where they were able to convince authorities that they would face a dire fate if returned to their homes.
So far the United States is not known to have granted asylum to anyone living under Israel's jurisdiction who has claimed political persecution. Lawyers working on the issue have advised Israeli clients not to seek such status even if they've been sentenced to prison in Israel for being conscientious objectors who refused to carry out military assignments involved with the occupation of the West Bank and Gaza.
Until recently, the United States' neighbor to the north was seen as a safe haven for just such people. Just as it once offered refuge to young Americans fleeing the draft, Canada has approved dozens of asylum requests from individuals claiming political persecution by Israel since 2000. These cases included Israeli citizens who claimed they were persecuted for opposing the occupation and ultra-Orthodox Jews who claimed they could not maintain their faith there freely. Canada has also granted asylum status to Israelis who came originally from the former Soviet Union but claimed they faced discrimination in their new home.
In 2006, the Israeli government protested Canada's asylum policies. And in the past two years the number of Israelis receiving asylum in Canada has declined. In 2011, an Israeli reservist who refused to serve in the Gaza Strip was denied asylum in Canada following a court ruling that he could not prove the military mission involved humanitarian abuses.
An Israeli diplomatic official said that the scarcity of asylum cases in the United States did not require the Israeli government to bring up the issue with Washington. The official added that the few cases in which Israelis were granted asylum in America represented "unusual circumstances" and did not reflect on Israel's democracy.

How does one get a "fire" roast on your veggies; tomatoes, corn, etc.
We did this on Easter Sunday so I figured out a good way! Char poblanos in a skillet. We got the skin nice and charred. When we took it out of the skillet we placed it in a thin plastic bag that you get in the produce section to put your veggies and fruits in. As it cooled it steamed up the bag completely, which served to moisten the pepper and loosen the skin. 30 minutes later we were able to peel off the charred skin. Delicious! We added it to mango, cream cheese, chicken quesadillas.
almost 4 years ago -
I try not to use plastic bags at all, but I've found that if I wrap charred peppers right away in a dry kitchen towel (a dish towel) and then cover them with a bowl to let them steam for a minute, the skins come off really easily just by rubbing with the towel. I always do like leaving some of the heavily blackened bits on, though.

The Mob Revealed
Reports out of Florida indicate that Democrats have decided to do something about the emerging threat of those pesky voters talking back to their betters. You see, the way it works is the politicians talk AT the people, and the people shut up and listen. These angry people are doing it wrong.
In light of new video I have acquired, It's understandable that Democrats would want to stock up on Union security to put a stop to all that protesting. Witness the mob!
Well, this is fascinating. The Tampa Bay Online story that I linked above has been radically changed. It initially said this...
Reed said she set up the town hall with the help of Service Employees International Union, a large, politically active union that represents nursing home workers, among others. "I represent a number of people who ask questions about what's going on with health care, so I thought it would be good to put on a meeting and have the congresswoman come in and give an update," said Reed.
Asked earlier today about possible disruption at the event, Kim Diehl of SEIU said, "We're prepared. We have strategies to deal with it if it should come up."
That has been deleted and replaced with something far more SEIU/Democrat friendly:
The meeting was organized by Reed plus the Service Employees International Union, other unions and Organizing for America, a liberal group that grew out of the Obama presidential campaign.
Some opponents accused the organizers of trying to stack the crowd by allowing early admission to those on their side. Reed denied that, saying those admitted early were organizers setting up the room.
In any case, opponents appeared to outnumber proponents both inside and outside.
After doors to the meeting room closed, some of those outside crowded around the windows of the meeting room, where they held up signs and chanted.
In the last week or so, similar disruptive protests have erupted at town hall meetings in several states.
Democrats, including White House spokesman Robert Gibbs, have said the disruptions were organized attacks aimed at Democrats by conservative, anti-health care reform interest groups. Several protestors at Thursday's meeting in Tampa angrily rejected that contention.
Castor's staff said Reed planned the meeting and invited Castor before the controversy became so heated. Reed said she set up the meeting because, "I represent a number of people who ask questions about what's going on with health care, so I thought it would be good to put on a meeting and have the congresswoman come in and give an update."Reed said she was shocked by the number of people who turned out and some of their reactions. "When you get to the point of possible violence, you've gone over the edge," she said.
In a news conference prior to the town hall, Castor had said, "I do expect some rabble-rousing." She said the protesters who have been appearing at town hall forums on health care "would have been protesting Medicare they would never have accepted Social Security."
Tampa police spokeswoman Andrea Davis said the department was told a couple hundred people would show up and sent a squad of 10-15 officers, two marked cars, two supervisors and some undercover officers. As the crowd grew, more were brought in mainly for traffic control, she said, but they also broke up some scuffles. She said no arrests were made.
So they eliminated the part about the SEIU being a "large, politically active union". They also eliminated the SEIU representative saying "We have strategies to deal with" the protesters.
In their place, they just inserted Democratic talking points. Terrific.

Carol with a report from the event (with pictures)
Nadia Naffe, who says police reports were file by people saying they were injured by SEIU people, as well as this: "The last thing I was before I exited the event were two women running over to a cop sitting in his vehicle, screaming, "Don't you see that man over there has a gun?" The cop looked up and calmly replied, "Ma'am in this country people have the right to bear arms"."
The one picture of somebody actually being hit at the Tampa meeting. The person delivering the hit is identified as Karen Miracle. I'm guessing she's the Karen Miracle who is Treasurer of the E. Hillsborough Democratic Club. Her husband, Garry (also pictured), is the Political Director.
Another apparent Democrat arrested.
Balance, Please. Seems Like a Beck Inspired Mob
From the same article:
Instead, hundreds of vocal critics turned out, many of them saying they had been spurred on through the Tampa 912 activist group promoted by conservative radio and television personality Glenn Beck. Others had received e-mails from the Hillsborough Republican Party that urged people to speak out against the plan and offered talking points.
Any opposition, inspired by Glenn Beck and pre-made talking points, is not there to discuss health care. Their whole point is to shut down discussion and make a scene. Hippies and punks used the same tactics and they didn't get far. I have no idea why Republicans think this will be effective.
She pressed on, mostly unheard among screams from the audience estimated by Tampa police to be about 1,500.
"Tell the truth! Tell the truth!" "Read the bill!" "Forty-million illegals! Forty million illegals!"
Minutemen, too. That's a sure winner in the Latino communities. I'm surprised nobody brought their long form birth certificate in a baggie. Or their teabag headwear.
caption text: Karen Miracle pushes Barry Osteen, right, who was debating her husband, Garry. "We have the best health care system in the world and I'm completely happy with what we have," Osteen said.
John, pushing is not hitting. I would assume Mr. Osteen was behaving poorly by invading Garry Miracle's personal space and Mrs. Miracle wanted to make some space.
The rabble rousing in all its video glory. This isn't democracy.
I can't believe this is the Republicans and the Next Right's new political message director: Glenn Beck.
This is a party in trouble.

Lebensraum Defense
I would assume Mr. Osteen was behaving poorly by invading Garry Miracle's personal space and Mrs. Miracle wanted to make some space.
Ah, the Lebensraum Defense. Well played, sir.
Nazi references. Classy.
Right, it's not like the two men in the pictures are practically chest-to-chest or anything. If I put my nose an inch from your face in the middle of an argument, answer me this: are you cool with that or are you a Nazi?
I mean that's literally how stupid you sound.
Do some research. The concept/argument of Lebensraum predates the Nazis. I'm sorry if all you know about Germans is Hitler. Would it be more classy and palatable to you if I said that white people massacred American Indians in the name of getting themselves more space?
The obvious point is that Todd wants to justify assault based on conjecture of motives, but it's still assault even if they're on your side of the political argument. How classy is that?
Close Talking Is Acceptable in Tampa?
Out West, that's a form of intimidation. We don't consider close talking or close shouting 'classy.'
That you'd take my conjecture about the wife reclaiming some personal space and twist it into a Nazi war justification comment is very Rush-like or Beck-like. Kook-ville.
Plus, what happened to the concept of accuracy and proportionality? How did a push from a middle-age wife to a man twice her size become 'assault.' This is just evidence of the lack of perspective in the conservative movement.
The GOP created this electoral monster where for thirty years they've basically controlled the American political agenda. Every election year, they'd get their handlers, the Rush's and Beck's to poke at the beast using the commie stick, gay stick, or liberal stick and the GOP would win...pretty easily. For thirty years the beast was basically satisfied, until 2006 and 2008. I believe there has been a fundamental change in the electorate and because the beast is fundamentally conditioned to fear change and senses permanent change, it is not handling the new electoral country at all and are now lashing out at everybody. Frankenstein rampaging. Big, ugly at times, misunderstood, angry and uncontrollable by the GOP leadership. The beast pays attention to their real handlers: the Limbaugh's, Beck's and Malkin's and those guys like to keep the monster angry. It's a shame that McCain was not considered a 'real' conservative, since it's becoming more obvious that 'The Next Right' will not appear until a 'real' conservative is beaten.
You're locked on a straw Nazi
Out West, that's a form of intimidation.
So your standards are that standing close = unacceptable, pushing = acceptable. Got it.
That you'd take my conjecture about the wife reclaiming some personal space and twist it into a Nazi war justification comment is very Rush-like or Beck-like. Kook-ville.
That all you can do is say "Ooh! 'Nazi'! 'Nazi', I win!" is a complete failure of argument--especially since the Germans used Lebenstraum to fuel aggression for a couple generations prior to the Nazis, who I never mentioned. There is nothing really wrong with your thinking that Lebensraum started with Mein Kampf, I suppose, but your ignorance on the topic doesn't suddently invalidate the fact that all you have is conjecture about this woman's motives--not that wanting more space is a justification for starting a physical confrontation anyway.
That's the actual point here, and you seem to have completely missed it in your fervor to cling to Godwin.
How did a push from a middle-age wife to a man twice her size become 'assault.'
Try looking up 'assault'. Do you really need someone to spell out that if she did push him then she turned a verbal confrontation into a physical one? And that she is both morally and legally wrong to do so? I'm not sitting here suggesting that he should press charges, but it's ridiculous for you to suggest that he deserved to be shoved by some woman just because he was disagreeing with a man at a forum for public debate. It's even more ridiculous for you to then accuse him of being the one who is anti-democracy.
I'm Not The One Who Threw Out "Lebensraum"
Godwin award goes to the one who refers to Nazi first. You win. You should realize that when you refer to Lebensraum, the vast majority of people on the net will think you are refering to the Nazi program.
Try looking up 'assault'. Do you really need someone to spell out that if she did push him then she turned a verbal confrontation into a physical one? And that she is both morally and legally wrong to do so?
You must have nerves of steel. A moral standard unequaled in America. If somebody got into the face of somebody I care about and tried to intimidate them, I'd push myself in there. I'm fairly certain, you can't just camp in someone's face without permission and you are legally allowed to 'physically' create some space.
cling harder
Again, I offered you the slaughter of American Indians by evil whites in place of your Nazis, but you ignored it. Probably because you really do see that you are wrong, and all you've got is this weak claim to Godwin.
And no, it is not legal to assault somebody just because they're standing close to your friend. Really for real, it's still illegal, especially when you are the third one to the party. Heck, they don't even permit that in hockey (see "Third Man In" rule).
But since they played hockey in Germany and the Nazis were Germans, you'll probably dismiss everything I've said here. Godwin! Godwiiiiiiiiiiin!
We are aware that freedom of speech doesn't extend to a heckler's veto right? You are not permitted to use your second amendment rights to drown out someone else's, no matter how many self-righteous conservative bloggers whine on about people being expected to "shut up and listen." There's a portion of the town hall for questions - maybe some of these folks should use the down time to study that Constitution they love so much and see that they're violating it.
No freakin' way.
I have trouble telling the satirists from the real thing sometimes; are you for real?
We are aware that freedom of speech doesn't extend to a heckler's veto right?
It certainly does. There is no legal protection against being interrupted by someone else's speech. You can kick hecklers out of a private gathering, but they retain their right to free speech.
You are not permitted to use your second amendment rights to drown out someone else's, no matter how many self-righteous conservative bloggers whine on about people being expected to "shut up and listen."
Second amendment rights? Wow. Now that would be a story!
There's a portion of the town hall for questions - maybe some of these folks should use the down time to study that Constitution they love so much and see that they're violating it.
I'm really, really hoping that this is satire. You're killing me.
From Tea-bagging to townhall tyranny
Why do conservatives try to conflate people organized by lobbyists with a financial motive, provided talking points, probably being paid, with honestly concerned citizens?
Whether with the tea party "protests", or now with these townhalls, conservatives continue to prove that their concerns come from the top-down, not with a groundswell of grassroots support.
Is their anything conservatives do without the slimy tentacles of big money?
skayne needs to change his name to "skate"
because it seems skayne/skate is very willing to let the farLeft and MoveOn.Org and CodePink and the entire farLeft anti-WOT faux protest campaign of "End this endless war" nonsense to skate without even a slap on the wrist for being organized, non-grass roots, Dem Party and union goon organized astroturfed events. H-y-p-o-c-r-i-t-e.
And now, the Dem Party and farLeft fans of union goons are pushing back against those simple, honest, decent, truly grassroot citizens trying to gain a moment of any Democrat Party official's time to say "No, not with my health care coverage you won't."
For instance, in Michigan, Democrat Senator Debbie StupidCow has launched her own 'protest the protesters protesting me" campaign with "The Health Care People's (sic) Lobby". She's working hard to make sure that her union goons are in attendance at her townhall meetings to heckle the grassroots citizens concerned about her version of health care reform.
At least Senator StupidCow didn't pull an Obama-cums-Black-Panther nonsense of asking loyalists to report fellow citizens who are acting or espousing "fishy" emails about Obama's "righteous and pure and clean" version of health care reform.
I'm looking forward to being one of those angry people in the audience at Senator Debbie StupidCow's next townhall meeting... wanna bet she holds it in a union hall and you have to show a union membership card to get in?
Chickenshits. Barn yard chicken shits. You can let 'em skate, skayne. I'm holding them accountable. No NancyBoToxPelosi Talking Points. No White House Talking Point answers. The message is "I'm against the health care reform proposals of the Obama-Democrat thugocracy and I'm not intimidated by the threat of Chicago thugs, either."
(PS> does this now qualify for one of the farLeft trolls here to alert the White House on me?)
Is your argument really
"Dem activist organizations staged protests against the war, therefore we are 100% covered if United Healthcare or Heritage or the Koch family pays right-wing front groups to shut down town hall meetings in Democratic Congressmen's districts"??
That is REALLY stupid.
Jim-bo, you don't have to open your mouth to prove
you're a dolt and leftie git. We all know that. Now, take a second and read the post... it's amazing what even a git like you can learn if you stop and actually read something instead of just knee-jerking another wad off in your mouth.
Honest, the last few comments of yours here aren't even worthy of posting. Get a brain.
You can stick your opinions of me right where your other stupid opinions come from: Up your ass. And my size 12 boot will help.
Thanks for again proving my point, Dandy, about you...
Honest, the last few comments of yours here aren't even worthy of posting. Get a brain.
One thing you've been consistent about... you are the perfect troll. Even with your fashionable set of blinders.
Remember this from last year:
Remember this from last year: "Jesus was a community organizer!" Now all of a sudden community organizing is treasonous because it's being used by real Americans instead of racist anti-capitalists.
One of the defining characteristics of leftists is their genetic disability to recognize irony and hypocrisy in themselves, but the ability to find them in others when they don't exist. This is a classic example.
What is driving these ultraleftists crazy is that the center-right is finally fighting back; and in some cases, using their own age-old strategies and tactics against them. People are now seeing how they have been manipulated and lied to by the leftists and the Media hegemon; hence, the outrage being displayed by the real grassroots over the health care issue. Similarly, the desperation on the Left when they can no longer rely on popular ignorance is being exhibited by their violence and condescending slanders and libels intended to demonize and intimidate the informed. It's difficult to see how this strategy against the majority of Americans opposed to this Administration's "economic terrorism by health care" is a winning one -- legislatively or electorally.
Grassroot - Just Like They Had In the Astrodome
Snicker, damn the inter-tubes.
The only thing missing
The only thing missing from the granny piece is where they demand the government keep its hands off the National Health Service.
Oh, that and a reasoned debate about health care reform. <Sigh>.

Wonderful coverage, feels as though you have nothing on your skin. I will never wear regular foundation again! Although it is available in limited shades, you can custom mix your own shade easily! Just buy "warmth" bronzer, or a mineral blush, or a smaller size of the next shade of foundation. Use bisque multi-task for concealer and you have wonderfully bright, healthy- looking skin!
If you've never used a mineral fdt before, you must try this product. I have dry skin and was weary about using a powder-type product - fear of flakes - but this product is amazing! It provides about medium coverage that you can build, leave no trace on the skin, blends like a dream and lasts forever (a little goes a long way)... That's why I gave it a 5 for price...show me another fdt for $28.00 that will last 6 months to a year!
*Follw directions - there is a certain way to apply this product - but with a little practice, flawless skin is within reach!

A state judge in Farmerville has dismissed a Ringgold woman's lawsuit over payment for natural gas
from her wells.
Monroe attorney and Drum Energy owner Thomas Grant paid Virginia Cobb $39,000 after she won a lawsuit in 2007, over natural gas from her wells from January 1997 to November 2007.
Cobb, owner of MissChub LLC, says she never cashed those checks because she was owed more.
She said she should get the average value of the output from 11 wells that use the same master
meter as her four wells.
But Grant's attorney presented evidence that she was paid for the gas from her wells.

A gravity wave somewhere above the Ural mountains. Picture taken in the flight following the landing incident.

I may be reading too much into your story, but it seems likely to me that the underqualified, inexperienced co-pilot tried to land at the same speed that he had previously used at Lijiang and that the captain took command after the second bounce, grabbing the yoke and advancing the throttles. The most dangerous moment was the transition as the left seat said, "my airplane", and started to fly, not having flown into that situation. It may be just the reason you brought this up because it strikes me as a perfect metaphor for the circumstances surrounding the AGW debate. Underqualified, inexperienced but avid climatologists (co-pilot) use wrong analysis (Lijiang landing speed) to lead politicians to the brink of catastrophic policy (near crash), when better qualified scientists (captain) step in with correct expanation (recovery). Again, the point of greatest danger is the transition of control, which still lies in our future!

I learned to fly as an undergrad Physics major at Harvey Mudd College back in the 70's when they had an active extracurricular aeronautics program, and I remain an active instrument rated private pilot. As far as the pilot's instruments are concerned, the landing and takeoff speeds are always the same regardless of altitude. The reason is that the airspeed indicator measures pressure in an open tube (called the pitot tube) facing forward, a differential (the pitot pressure vs a static pressure source) Bourden tube arrangement calibrated into the desired unit, generally knots,. *Most* all of the aerodynamics affecting flight are the same at the same indicated airspeed (IAS).
At higher altitudes and higher than standard temperatures the true airpeed (TAS) can be much higher than the IAS but if one is on short final approach at 30% above the stall speed in the landing configuration (a common target), that IAS will be the same irrespective of altitude.
The problem is often the view out the window while planning an approach. If the pilot makes a visual approach without consciously adjusting the *distances* of the pattern flown based on density altitude and surface winds, the pilot will end up with more energy when they wanted with no good way to dissipate it and still land at a proper speed. During takeoffs, the most dangerous part of the flight, a pilot flying not by instrumentation but rather the sights and sensations of the takeoff roll may find themselves trying to will the plane into the air before speed sufficient for flight is gained, slowing the needed acceleration in the process, making the takeoff roll even longer.
Finally, the problem might not even have been initially caused by the pilot. Air traffic controllers sometimes, in their zeal to keep aircraft separated, make requests to pilots which interfere with an orderly slowdown and descent. Dealing with that, and when to decide the approach cannot be salvaged and a go around must be made, is something all pilots have to struggle with.

OK, you did loose me a bit with the calculations but I am right there with you bouncing and turning in the plane.
I had a similar experience in an airport in Australia although the biggest difference being I guess is that it was really windy and while we were already involved in a bumpy ride the landing became an experience not to remember. I am not sure how I managed to get through the whole process without a new pair of trousers but I did. However I would have to say that just reading your account I think your experience would be far more frightening since everything was going well to just suddenly bounce at the runway would have probably enforced the extra clothing requirement.
I am not sure I want to read any more stories like this from you!

Just happened to me too today.. And not even all the way around the world but a short flight from Montreal to Toronto, landing at Toronto City Center (Island) airport.
Porter Air flies Q400 turbo props (nice airline and nice airport otherwise) but we had an uneven touch-down that however didn't seem overly bad, didn't seem overly heavy and didn't seem overly un-even. (Just a little, but I've had worse). Still the pilot decided to take off again and go around, so that's after touching down.
I was watching the first landing and I don't think we touched down too far up the runway.. maybe it was just that the landing was uneven, that the runway wasn't that long to begin with, and that there's icy water at the end of it. ;) It was also snowing a little bit, so probably a good call on the part of the pilot to take it back into the air and do it again.
Second attempt was perhaps a bit harder than usual but perhas the pilot just wanted to make sure it stayed down. :)
Conditions were light snow but not overly windy.

Sauerberg will still oversee sales and marketing for Condé Nast, but will also now take a seat on the Magazine Publishers of America board next to David Carey, who was promoted to group president, publishing director, during the reorganization kickoff Jan. 7. Though Sauerberg's new title is similar to ousted group president Mitchell Fox's, he is not directly replacing Fox, who until his departure last week was group president, publishing director, overseeing the Golf Digest magazines, the Fairchild Fashion Group (which includes WWD), W magazine, Bon Appétit and Condé Nast Bridal Media. However, Sauerberg will fill Fox's seat on the MPA board. Before his role at Condé Nast, Sauerberg worked for five years for Fairchild Publications Inc., rising to chief operating officer, and spent 18 years at The New York Times in various finance and administration roles.
At Men's Vogue, Berger replaces William Li, who was tapped to become publisher of Portfolio on Monday, reporting to his mentor Carey. Berger has served several years at Condé Nast men's fashion magazines — two years at Details, a year as an associate publisher at defunct men's magazine Cargo, a few more years as advertising director at Vanity Fair and four years at GQ.
The flurry of press releases won't end with today's appointments — there are still vacant publisher spots at Teen Vogue and Wired.com. Some, no doubt, hope those jobs will be filled while flights to Condé Nast's annual publishers' meeting in Florida at the end of the month are still available. — Stephanie D. Smith
FROM PRINT TO WEB: The upper reaches of 4 Times Square aren't the only areas to welcome new staffers. Joanne Lipman has reached into the newspaper world once again as Condé Nast's Portfolio has tapped Dan Colarusso to edit its Web site. Colarusso was the New York Post's city editor until abruptly quitting in December. Prior to that, he served as the Post's business editor. He can also boast some Web experience, having worked at TheStreet.com until joining the Post in 2002.

Combining their heartthrob powers for pop music greatness, Justin Bieber and Cody Simpson just released their first tag-team track called "Home to Mama."
The "As Long as You Love Me" Canadian crooner and the "Pretty Brown Eyes" Aussie star take turns singing on the ditty while Simpson shows off his guitar chops.
Earlier this year they were spotted in the studio together and now Cody Simpson has announced a duet album with his buddy Justin Bieber.
During an interview with the Sydney Daily Telegraph, the handsome Aussie musician confirmed the project, noting a November release date.
He could have his pick of any lady in the land, and Cody Simpson had a bit of a struggle categorizing three of his famous female friends while chatting with Blunt Talking.
Proving that he's much more than just a pretty face with a killer voice, Cody Simpson just announced he's an official high school graduate.
The 17-year-old "Surfboard" singer graduated at the top of his class in Atlanta, Georgia and even got to address his classmates.
He's certainly proud of his toned physique and Cody Simpson posted a picture of his naked butt via Facebook and Instagram over the weekend.
The 17-year-old "Surfboard" singer posted the pic along with the message, "Free. throwback to Sunday morning on the coast after a big one. surfed out too. how bout that tan. taken by bae."
Clearly enjoying his celebrity status, Cody Simpson partied at the Hard Rock Hotel in Palm Springs this week.
The pop superstar rocked a boho ensemble in a flashy fedora and tank top, while showing off his buff shoulders.
Last week on "Dancing with the Stars," the celebrities had to switch pro partners, who were chosen by fans via two weeks of voting.
Olympic gold medalist Meryl Davis and Val Chmerkovskiy flew to the top of the leader board by grabbing a near perfect 39/40, while Candice Cameron Bure and Tony Dovolani wound up on the bottom with a score of 28/40.
Last week in the ballroom, Olympic gold medalist Meryl Davis and her pro partner Maks Chemerkovsiky shot to the top of the leader board as they nabbed the first 10's of the season, while Billy Dee Williams had to bow out of the competition due to chronic back issues.
This week, the stars and their pros were forced to dance with new partners as part of a switch up voted on by fans. Adding to the fun, "DWTS" alum Julianne Hough lent a hand at the judges table for the evening.

TAMPA, Fla. -- No lead had been safe for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this season.
So it was up to the defense to help them get their first win of the season.
Rookie Mike Glennon threw a 1-yard touchdown pass to tackle Donald Penn and led a long fourth-quarter TD drive to put the Buccaneers ahead for good in a 22-19 victory over the embattled Miami Dolphins on Monday night.

• Mike & Mike: All about the Dolphins
Bobby Rainey's 1-yard run capped an 80-yard drive, and the Bucs held on the final 10 minutes to become the last team in the league to win this season.
Jacksonville beat Tennessee on Sunday, leaving Tampa Bay as the league's only winless team entering the game.
The Bucs (1-8) held fourth-quarter leads in four of their eight losses, losing each time in the final 89 seconds of regulation or overtime.
"It had the same feeling going down the stretch," coach Greg Schiano said after his team won for only the second time in 15 games dating to last season. "But our guys bowed up and made some plays."
"It was rough. It was scary, I'm not going to lie," linebacker Adam Hayward said, recalling how the Bucs blew a 21-point lead before losing at Seattle eight days earlier.
"It looked like last week. The guys, like Lavonte (David) and a bunch of us just said we're tired of it," Hayward added. "We can't do it again, and everybody just started stepping up and making plays."
Playing for the first time since a bullying scandal in the Dolphins' locker room broke, Miami (4-5) started slowly before overcoming an early 15-0 deficit to lead 19-15 heading into the fourth quarter.
Ryan Tannehill threw touchdown passes of 6 and 19 yards to Rishard Matthews but got no help from a running game that was limited to just 2 yards rushing.
The Bucs sacked Tannehill twice on Miami's final possession before Darrelle Revis intercepted Tannehill's fourth-down desperation throw intended for Mike Wallace with 1:35 remaining.
Dolphins Struggle On Land
Miami ran for only 2 yards Monday night, making it the fourth-worst rushing performance in a game since 1990. Here's a look at the list:
Rushing Yards | |
2007 Lions | -18 |
2006 Lions | -3 |
2007 Cowboys | 1 |
2013 Dolphins | 2 |
"We have good guys on this team who understand adversity and understand how to handle it," Tannehill said. "This is a good test. I'm not saying it's easy. I'm not saying it's fun to deal with. But I have faith in these guys."
Glennon completed 11 of 21 passes for 139 yards in his sixth pro start. The third-round draft pick threw his first interception in four games -- a span of 159 attempts -- to set up a third-quarter field goal that put the Dolphins up 19-15.
Tannehill finished 27-of-42 for 229 yards, two touchdowns and an interception.
The Bucs saluted Hall of Famer Warren Sapp at halftime, retiring his No. 99 jersey and inducting the 1999 NFL defensive player of the year and 2002 Super Bowl champion into the team's Ring of Honor.
The Dolphins had not played since Oct. 31, when they beat Cincinnati 22-20 in overtime to stop a four-game skid.
They've been the talk of the league for the wrong reasons ever since.
The NFL is investigating tackle Jonathan Martin's allegations of daily harassment by teammates, including suspended guard Richie Incognito. Martin is with his family in California to undergo counseling for emotional issues, and he'll meet later this week with the league's special investigator to discuss the allegations.
The special investigator will determine whether Incognito harassed Martin and whether the Dolphins mishandled the matter.
Owner Stephen Ross broke his silence on the situation during a news conference before the game at Raymond James Stadium. He said he was appalled by the player's accusations and plans to meet with Martin on Wednesday at an undisclosed location.

"Obviously there was a voice we weren't hearing," Ross said, adding that he will take an open mind into the meeting and is eager to learn the facts of the case.
The owner said he has formed an independent advisory group that includes Tony Dungy, Don Shula, Dan Marino, Jason Taylor and Curtis Martin to review organizational conduct policies and to make recommendations on areas for improvement.
"We need to look at ourselves. We have to examine everything internally," Ross said. "This is so appalling to me. I know I'm capable of overreacting. I want to get everybody's feedback because we all know the football locker room is a different workplace than most of us are accustomed to. I don't want to make any excuses."
It was apparent from the start that the Bucs might be able to change their fortunes against the Dolphins, who spent much of the past week answering questions about the bullying scandal.
Glennon finished a nine-play, 76-yard, game-opening drive with his TD pass to Penn, a 6-foot-5, 340-pound tackle who discreetly slipped off the line and was all alone in the end zone. Mike James ran five times for 41 yards on the drive before leaving the game with a broken left ankle.
The Bucs built the lead to 15-0 with a pair of field goals by Rian Lindell and a safety before Tannehill got the Dolphins on track in the closing minutes of the second quarter.
The second-year quarterback trimmed his team's deficit to 15-7 with his first TD pass to Matthews. The second put Miami ahead 16-15 late in the third quarter.
"We moved the ball well through the air, but we didn't have any balance. That caught up to us at the end of the game," Dolphins coach Joe Philbin said.
"There's a lot of football left to be played. November and December is going to determine who moves forward," Philbin said. "We have to learn from the mistakes we made and prepare better and play better."

U.S. Spends $2.7M to Study Impact of TV on Area of Vietnam That Lacks Electricity
(CNSNews.com) - The Department of Health and Human Services is spending $2,797,979 on a study that brings television to more than a dozen remote villages in Vietnam to study its impact on their culture and reproductive behavior.
"In cooperation with the Vietnam government, we have selected 14 villages in a remote, mountainous area of Vietnam that currently lacks electricity," according to the grant description for 'Television and International Family Change: A Randomized Experiment.'
"Treatment villages will receive televisions and generators with gasoline to operate the televisions. Control villages will not receive generators or televisions."
The principal investigator of the study, Dr. Rukmalie Jayakody of the Penn State Population Research Center, tells CNSNews.com that while groundwork for the study began in 2010, the televisions and generators were just installed this past August.
The televisions used in the study will only receive four channels. "What villages have access to is not cable television or satellite television, but just Vietnam TV," Jayakody says.
"One is really a news channel, one is a sports channel, one is a mix of entertainment and a little bit of education. For example, 'if I was a farmer, what should I feed my pig to make my pig healthy?' kind of things, and then the fourth channel is also a mix of entertainment and news," Jayakody says.
A study on the impacts television has on the remote communities will be conducted annually for three years. The project has received federal grant money every year since its inception in 2010, totaling an amount over $2.7 million. It is set to receive $705,972 for fiscal year 2014 alone."After collecting baseline information on all 14 villages using mutually reinforcing qualitative (family and community ethnographies) and quantitative (survey interviews) data collection strategies, we will randomly assign half the villages to the treatment group and the other half to the control group," researchers explained.
The specific aims of the study are to:
(1) "Examine the causal impacts of television on family formation attitudes and behaviors, including age at marriage, parent's role in the mate selection process, desired family size, age at first birth, and contraceptive use;
(2) Examine the causal impacts of television on reproductive health knowledge (knowledge of STI's and their prevention, knowledge of modern contraceptives), premarital sexual activity, use of reproductive health services, and condom use; and
(3) Examine the specific mechanisms through which television effects operate."
"There's lots of hypothesis from the World Bank, the World Health Organization, the CDC--that access to television will improve health, because they (people) will get more information about health from television. For adolescents particularly on sexually transmitted infections and reproductive health, Jayakody says."World-wide one of the major hypothesis is that access to television improves information and education on contraception therefore increasing contraception rates and reducing fertility. On the health side, that's one of our major focuses," she added.
Investigators with the project will also test hypotheses on how access to television impacts obesity, gender relationships and public displays of affection.
The federal grant money the study receives is useful to Americans, according to Jayakody, "I think a lot of theories that we have on issues that impact the United States are based on the premise that television has effects, although we have no data to support that."
"So, going back to one of the major health concerns for the U.S., which is obesity, we have hypotheses in the U.S. that television changes physical activity behavior and food behavior, but we don't have any data on that. So what we learn from Vietnam on the impact of television, on physical activity, as well as food intake and food preferences definitely informs theories we are using in the United States."
"In terms of sexually transmitted diseases and contraception - those also have very important implications to the United States," Jayakody said.
The first publications on the study are expected to be available in May.

The Blood Type Diet Archives Volume 5
Posted By: JFSDate: June-07, 1998 at 19:51:09
The GPs ("family" doctors) I've met do not seem too worried about shrinkage of their practice. Mostly they're overworked and faced with diseases brought on by bad diet, smoking, and other preventable causes that they do not have very good tools to treat. However, they are very cautious and suspicious of fads. They live in a world where the "standard of care" (i.e., what one must do not to be liable for malpractice) is established by mainstream nutritionists. If a patient says "Should I try this new diet?" the doctor is under enormous pressure to point out that it is inconsistent with the conventional wisdom.
So perhaps the behavior you have described is just part of the usual process of picking up cues from patient questions.
On the other hand, specialists and pharmaceutical companies would have to make major changes to cope with a radically more healthy population. Resistance is natural.
The only long term solution, if you want established medicine to embrace new protocols, is to change the standard of care. Good luck!

I've watched it and just can't see what the big fuss is about, the story is pretty rubbish, the characters are the same, the comedy is sub par, there is no real tragedy to be resolved, it's basically the same as all the other DBZ movies but just not done as well as the hype would suggest. If anyone else has seen I'd like to know your opinion about the movie.
