America the RudyfulMarch 02, 2015I know he's just crying out for attention, but Rudy Giuliani saying "I do not believe that the president loves America," highlights some deeper issues in the Republican party and our democracy in general. For one, the failed presidential candidate and former mayor made the statement at a priv... |
Obama's Long War of ForevernessFebruary 23, 2015While most people are focused on ISIS (or ISIL, Islamic State or whatever we're calling that group of jihadist lunatics these days) and their theatrically brutal atrocities, President Obama just sent his Authorization for the Use of Military Force to Congress. The 2001 AUMF is the thing that has ... |
Brian Williams & the Frog of WarFebruary 17, 2015Sure, it boggles my mind how Brian Williams could embellish and "misremember" an event like his helicopter ride in Iraq years ago, but the firestorm around his imagined combat experience is inordinately fierce compared to the relative silence around all of the other Iraq War-era 'misrememberin... |
Vaccines: How to Avoid Killing and Maiming ChildrenFebruary 09, 2015I've been wanting to do a cartoon on vaccination and the anti-vaxxers for a while and now that we have politicians stumbling over themselves following the measles outbreak, the time is right. Thanks to the Magic Kingdom, even politicians like Rand Paul are trying to fit matters of public health (... |
King Abdullah: Royal PainFebruary 05, 2015I was curious how you could be king of a country that beheads people, doesn't let women drive and regularly flogs people and be remembered as a "reformer" when you die. Could it have something to do with all that oil and the regional stability thing, perhaps? You can read more at http://www.... |
The Muhammad MinuteJanuary 28, 2015After the terror attacks in Paris, I wanted to take a deeper dive into the supposed rational for attacking cartoonists. It's because they drew and disrespected Muhammad, right? Nobody is allowed to depict Muhammad since it is forbidden in Islam. Is it really? You can read more at http://www.Ma... |
Whip Steve ScaliseJanuary 20, 2015Last week I was working on this cartoon relating to extremist Christian ideology when along came the terrible events caused by extremist Muslim ideology. Go figure. Needless to say, the Charlie Hebdo massacre gave Congressman Steve Scalise a reprieve from his very own white supremacist scandal. (... |
Je suis CharlieJanuary 10, 2015After the tragic attack in Paris, freedom of speech seems more precious than ever. How anyone could become so twisted as to think that killing cartoonists, including an 80-year-old man, is in any way an honor to Muhammad, is beyond me. While Charlie Hebdo is a publication that is centered around c... |
The Year in Crazy: 2014January 04, 20152014 saw everything from a mooching rancher and his well-armed militia buddies fighting off the federal government to the killing of an unarmed black man sparking a nationwide conversation on race. You can read more at http://www.MarkFiore.com.

Dear Leader 2December 27, 2014Now that Sony has completely caved to cyberterrorist demands, let's see what movie they've chosen to run in place of The Interview. Sure, Kim Jong Un is a nasty despot, but do we really think North Korea is capable of attacking movie theaters all across the United States? Methinks Sony Picture... |
Citigroup DemocracyDecember 21, 2014Now that the secret back room dealings are done and the latest budget bill passed Congress (of course, at the 11th hour), we can see the thumbprints of Wall Street once again. Actually, more than thumbprints, Citigroup actually wrote part of it. They managed to gut "Section 716" of Dodd-Frank... |
Cheney's Torture AnthemDecember 15, 2014Even though Dick Cheney isn't the only one responsible for the stain of torture on the United States, he's the most, shall we say, colorful? If you think the awfulness of Bush-era torture is behind us, think again. Thanks to the just-released Senate torture report, we now know of all kinds of ... |
Who Killed Michael Brown?December 08, 2014It seems that everyone but Darren Wilson is responsible for the death of Michael Brown. It's Michael Brown's fault, black-on-black violence is at fault, it's a culture of disrespect and lawbreaking that's at fault, take your pick. Perhaps the best spew of logic came from Rudy Giuliani, who... |
Congressional TurkeysDecember 08, 2014It's time to take a break from the current stream of depressing news and give thanks for turkeys you may know and love . . . or know and despise. What better place to turn for some buffoonery than the newly elected and reshuffled Congress. (Don't worry, I'll keep focusing on issues of race, ... |
Sustainable Keystone XLNovember 22, 2014Who says Keystone XL isn't a sustainable, renewable project? Just ask Tar Sands Timmy . . . and Senator (for now) Mary Landrieu. Now that "jobs" claims have been debunked and US domestic oil production is booming, the Keystone XL pipeline project has morphed into primarily a political symbol... |
The Screw You StrategyNovember 18, 2014Humans are a little hard to figure out sometimes, and that makes for an interesting Democracy. Congressional Republicans just finished a successful campaign that focused on not being Obama. Forget about the issues and actually having a platform, the party of We're-Not-Obama came out on top. (Yo... |
The Last Campaign Ad EverNovember 08, 2014Even before the big loss for the Democrats, we had all lost. The money pouring into politics from Super PACs and shady political "nonprofit" organizations was stealing Democracy from you and me. Financial contributions from individual voters is being eclipsed by the big bucks pouring in from f... |
Gamergate Wants You!November 01, 2014Do you ever get the feeling that news stories are extensions of high school spats? First Sarah Palin's family was brawling at a party, now a boyfriend-gone-bitter sparked an online flamewar unlike any other. The Gamergate story would be very silly if it didn't involve threats of violence again... |

Big Green Sea Monster added this photo to his favorites. (29 months ago)
Is that the new Luke Skywalker hair in the middle? And the Rodney Rathbone MF torso on the right??
Is that the guy from breaking bad?
It's funny you say that, because it is the same face as on the City miners 4x4 set, which I saw today and though to myself "it's the Breaking Bad" guy!!"
Can't tell if Breaking Bad face or Gordon Freeman...

Reality Check Indeed!
Fact of the matter is, what gave Ben gravitas was the fact that he worked for Fox News. As such, without the Fox emblem on the screen for the sheeple, Ben's message won't be different than the many libertarians who are already dispensing the same news, regardless of the cost of production.

Right on the royal mile, minutes from the train station so that's a huge plus. Rooms were perfectly adequate, common bathroom a little dirty but that's to be expected (always bring your own toilet paper).. I only stayed for a night but I would probably stay here again - go ahead and book it.

MyScript Calculator For Android, iOS
While this app won't replace math education, it will certainly help to make math problems easier. Instead of punching buttons, simply use MyScript Calculator to draw a mathematical problem on the screen as if it were a piece of paper. The free app for Android and iOS interprets what is written and does the number-crunching. Developed by digital writing solution provider Vision Objects, this app uses quality handwriting recognition technologies to convert handwriting to digital text.
This app uses basic and advanced math operations, including those from trigonometry and other disciplines. A user can even solve missing variables by placing a question mark as the variable or erase mistakes by simply scratching them out. We noticed that when writing out a problem, the user must write from left to right instead of top to bottom. Otherwise, it won't extend the problem and will create random fractions. Nonetheless, MyScript Calculator is an efficient and genius app.

You've got to know your limitations. I don't know what your limitations are. I found out what mine were when I was twelve. I found out that there weren't too many limitations, if I did it my way.
We were in the studio, getting ready to work - and I popped it in, by the end I was really on the verge of tears. I'm working with Zach de la Rocha, and I told him to take a look. At the end of it, there was just dead silence. There was, like, this moist clearing of our throats and then, 'Uh, OK, let's get some coffee.'
During his early shows the "Tennessee Two", he would frequently make mocking introductions of his bandmates. He would introduce laconic guitarist Luther Perkins, who was secretly terrified of performing in public, and add either that he was in "rigor mortis" or that his pulse had been checked beforehand to make sure he was still alive. Then he would introduce bassist Marshall Grant, who would usually hop around and dance with great energy as he chewed gum at shows, as "playing the chewing gum."

T he B est -S elling I ntroduction to T echnical A nalysis : U pdated with N ew E xamples , T echniques , and G uidance !
Technical analysis offers powerful, objective tools for picking stocks and making money--and in today's market environment, that makes it more indispensable than ever. Unfortunately, most technical analysis books confuse investors instead of enlightening them. In this clear, practical, fully updated book, Barron's Online technical analysis columnist Michael N. Kahn introduces proven technical analysis techniques in simple language that any investor can understand and use.
Kahn explains how technical analysis works and then teaches you how to read charts and translate them into investment decisions. You'll learn how to use technical analysis to complement your current approach to stock selection, discover what makes a stock look promising, and objectively assess both risk and reward.
This completely revised third edition contains many new examples reflecting today's transformed market environment. You'll find detailed new coverage of recognizing bubbles, including real estate (2006), oil (2008), and bonds (2009). Kahn presents powerful new insights into the relationship between technical analysis and market psychology and crucial, up-to-date guidance on sector rotation in rapidly changing markets. He also presents a full chapter on navigating through chaotic, once-in-a-millennium, "black-swan" market events.
Technical analysis is one of the oldest market disciplines, yet the majority of the investment and academic communities consider it, at best, a minor supplement to their own work. At worst, it is disparaged as tea-leaf reading or simply a self-fulfilling prophecy. Look at these two phrases. They suggest that the technical analyst divines the market from some mystical process. This could not be further from the truth.
Consider the fundamental analyst. This person relies on company reports, conversations with company insiders, and macro-economic research in relevant business sectors. All of this is indispensable when determining if a company is viable and predicting how its business will fare in the future.
Now consider the source of all the raw data. Much of it is projection and conjecture. How can you rely solely on such raw data when earnings reports and other industry-wide data will be subject to revisions?
Technical analysis looks at actual trades where bulls and bears have put their money where their collective mouths are. There is no revision of data. There is no ambiguity. There is no mystical divining of the future. All market and stock selection is based on current, not past, price performance, the predictable behavior of market participants, and the dynamics between markets over time.
Trends exist. Information is slowly disseminated to the public in an imperfect manner, and as the public acts on the information, the markets move. They continue to move until either the last group has acted or an outside influence, such as news, ends the trend. Sounds a lot like physics, does it not? A body in motion tends to remain in motion.
Look at another aspect of the analysis. Behavior is a key component of the analysis. When similar market conditions occur, market participants react in similar ways. This is how the patterns and measurements within technical analysis are created.
For example, the market holds fairly steady as buyers and sellers adjust their portfolios to meet their specific investment criteria. A stock might trade from 50 to 52 for weeks in this way. Is the stock good? Is the company good? You do not know. All you know is that bulls and bears consider the stock to be fairly valued within a small range. A body at rest tends to stay at rest—physics again.
Now, somebody comes into the market to buy a large block of stock. Why? Technical analysis does not know but more importantly, it does not care. All it needs to know is that money has flowed into the market and increased demand for the stock. Demand? That is straight from basic economics. If demand rises, the price must rise to induce sufficient supply (sellers) to come into the market and restore equilibrium. This does not sound very mystical, does it?
So, now that demand has increased, market activity picks up to provide supply. It also changes in character as people try to decipher what is happening. Here are the familiar concepts of fear and greed, both key determinants of human behavior. Some participants will think that something has changed and that the stock is now undervalued. It could be a new product or simply a decrease in the company's raw material inputs. Perhaps it is foreign capital coming into the stock. Or a shortage of stock itself. Whatever the reason, some market participants know something, or think they know something, about improved prospects for the company and they buy. The market breaks out of the trading range and as it does, more market participants act. The size and scope of their actions is most often similar to the size and scope of their actions at other occasions when the market has broken out of similar ranges. It can be measured and projected.
Technical analysis has an unfortunate name. Perhaps "price action analysis" or "supply, demand, and reaction analysis" might be better. In 1998, great strides were made between market technicians and the academic community in the emerging field of behavioral finance. Now there is a possible name to use.
One aspect of the technical discipline is explaining the difference between valuations and actual market prices. If a stock is worth 75 on paper based on discounted cash flows, projected growth, and overall economic conditions, why is it trading at 90? The difference is in the market's perceptions of the stock. People have pushed the stock up past its theoretical value, and technical analysis is perfectly suited to handle this. Because people's perceptions can change quickly, it is also perfectly suited to reacting equally as quickly. This type of reaction speed is impossible using fundamental analysis alone.
So do you scrap your fundamentals and rely exclusively on technicals? Absolutely not! Although there are scores of money managers and traders that are 100% technical and making a lot of money, you, the reader, are not interested in making technical analysis your sole investment discipline just yet. You are reading this book because you are seriously interested in enhancing your returns, not searching for a completely new method. Perhaps one day you will make that switch, but that is beyond the scope of this book.
At this stage, charts will give you a clear picture of what your fundamental research is saying. Remember that fundamentals describe the company. Technicals describe how the stock is performing. You are buying stock, not companies.

A Mother's Approach to Savings
contributed by Beckie

Money-Saving for a Single Mom, Working Mom
Surviving as a Single Mom Single Parent Finances |
As a single mom of three, I've been told that I need two to three months of savings in the bank in case something would ever happen, such as layoff, injury, etc. The interest being paid at banks is generally only 2 to 3 percent at best. Rather than put the money into a money market or CD, I have paid three months ahead on my mortgage. By doing this, I am actually getting 7.75 percent interest and I know that I have a three month cushion in case something should happen. This is in addition to the money that I have put into my regular savings to cover such things as electric, phone, gas, and food if something should happen. Now with my emergency fund firmly established, I put everything extra on the principal of my loan.
I've had a few people say that I should just put the money straight towards the principal to save more money. But, if something should happen to me, I would still owe the next payment. This works wonderful for me. In order to get the first payment, I simply put any extra money that I could into savings (be it $20 or $100). When I had enough for the first extra payment, I took it from savings and sent it in. Then I started all over again. But this time I made sure that I had $200 to $300 left in my savings before I sent it so that I had a cushion for the everyday bills. Sometimes, it would take me three months to save the extra payment. At other times, it would take eight months. By keeping at it, I have paid ahead three months within three years. My $92,000 loan is down to $82,000 in just three years.
On the day of the closing, the bank gave me a couple of coupons for sending my payments in until I received the payment book. I noticed that the first payment wasn't due until the third month after closing. Since I had already saved the money, I made my first payment the same day as the closing and I made a payment the second month. I'm not sure if it's true, but I've been told that I cut six months off my loan by doing this. That's a savings of $3,600 in my case. I'm not sure how much interest all this has saved me, but I do know it's a considerable amount. I would love to know the exact amount. My best guess is that I will have my 30-year loan paid off in about 23 to 25 years if I continue doing as I am. This means a savings of $37,800 to $52,920! Not a bad chunk of change.
As a side note, I've been divorced 4 years. During the first year, my home had to stay in my ex-husband's name until someone would take a chance on me. I have now remodeled my family room. Also, I replaced a drafty sliding door with a window in my bedroom. This was accomplished by doing much of the labor myself. On my birthday and Christmas, I asked my family to give me such things as rolls of insulation, light switches and covers, buckets of plaster, plaster board, etc. instead of clothing and knick-knacks that I did not need. I watched for clearance items, such as a $90 ceiling on sale for $35 and a five-gallon bucket of paint on sale for $35. Yes, it took some time, but everything was paid for in cash. Each room cost me between $3,000 to $4,000 with the largest expense being carpet. As an added benefit, I have seen a drop in my energy bill due to the fact that I put insulation in the ceiling and walls and replaced a drafty door.

I'm guessing the real reason is so they can do some sort of compression between the ground and aircraft. Lossy compression of Facebook and Google images could save a good bit of bandwidth, and they can't do that without intercepting the unencrypted data using this method.
They could say something like this:
Bandwidth at 30,000+ feet is inherently limited, and heavy-load activities like streaming videos from the ground can weigh down our network. That means playback is subject to poor video quality, buffering, and slower connection speeds for your fellow passengers.
Oh wait. That's exactly what they say. They're very up-front about not being able to stream video.
I paid for some GoGo on a flight recently. The signup page made it pretty clear that data speeds were pretty limited and I wasn't allowed to stream video. I don't know why they need to spoof certs for that as opposed to just blocking sites or protocols though. Maybe they do some sort of data compression on the ground before transmitting to the plane or something?

" The API itself allows for NO creativity"
Have you written any complex api? I am in software industry for 28 years and in every projects that I have worked, I spend more time on api design than implementation. It requires lots of ingenuity and creativity to come up with a set of api. Not much different than coming up with a plot for movie with intricate relations between characters and their personalities.
You need to re-read what ShangaiBill wrote. I will expound on it in parens.
The creativity should be what lies behind the API (call/name), not the API (call/name) itself.
No amount of genius can overcome a preoccupation with detail.

Rob Maness, a retired Air Force Colonel who has never run for public office, announced Monday that he is entering the race. Republican Rep. Bill Cassidy is also challenging Landrieu.
After serving 32 years in the military devoted to supporting and defending the Constitution from threats outside of America, I realized when my peers and I were facing out, behind us the political class in office was not living up to their oath to support and defend the Constitution,
Asked what he brings as a candidate that neither Landrieu nor Cassidy does, Maness said it was his sense of principle.
We need men and women in Congress who legislate from set of principles not from public opinion polls, he said. I will stand on principle. I will read each piece of legislation through the lens of the Constitution. I will stand with Rand Paul, Ted Cruz, Mike Lee and stand alone when needed.
Louisiana has an open primary system, meaning all candidates, Democratic, Republican and from other parties, are placed on one ballot. If no candidate gets fifty percent of the vote, the top two vote-getters go to a run-off.
Maness said he was unconcerned about splitting the vote with Cassidy and giving Landrieu a victory, taking a jab at the viability of his opponent.
Competition is good. The voters deserve the best we can offer, he said. We dont believe that Rep. Cassidy will take away enough votes from us for it to be a concern.
Maness dismissed Cassidys candidacy in general, saying he would not be able to beat Landrieu.
Rep. Cassidy is a nice man and a loyal Rove Republican, Maness said, and that is the problem. A Rove Republican cant beat Mary Landrieu.

Rep. Cassidy is a nice man and a loyal Rove Republican, Maness said, and that is the problem. A Rove Republican cant beat Mary Landrieu.
Ha!! A Rove Republican! Exactly the phrase that should stick and be used far and wide to paint establishment candidates. This is man to support in Louisiana, ladies and gentlemen!
Cassidy == Rove Republican
Maness == Rogue Conservative
He should work this into his campaign theme. Gotta get the image to stick in people's heads.
Like we need another RINO.
Time to Maness Up and save our Republic!
A pleasant surprise! Usually when one sees a headline reading "X cannot beat Y", it is because X is "too extreme" or "polarizing", or doesn't have a history of handing out goodies.
I like seeing someone go the other way on this. On the face of it, his motivations are the right ones. Go Maness.
And double points for using the tag "Rove Republican". Gets the point across in two words, five syllables and with alliteration. Good.
And this line is great: We dont believe that Rep. Cassidy will take away enough votes from us for it to be a concern."
Ha! I really like this guy!
Also, it kind of sounds like Rogue Republican.
I mean, when it comes to politics Rove is a real rogue, not a liberal sound-bite "rogue." He's introduced more corruption and damage into our country than almost anyone else, short of the Demo Commies.
And what's great is if this gets around, politicans will be scared to death of associating themselves with Rove or his political group. And judging from the string of establishment losers last November, they'd be wise to do so.
You'll know that it achieves critical mass is Sean Hannity, mindful of image and ratings, stops inviting Rove on so that Sean can lick his shoes.
I thought Cassidy was an okay conservative. Was I wrong? What RINO crap did this guy vote for?
The article is BS. Cassidy is a solid conservative. I'm from Louisiana and know whereof I speak. No one has ever heard of this new candidate, and has no political record, unlike Cassidy.
The only reason this story is being reported is that Louisiana newspapers who are 100% behind Landrieu want to give him ink and hope to draw votes from Cassidy.
"I thought Cassidy was an okay conservative. Was I wrong? What RINO crap did this guy vote for?"
He's only at 80% on the Club for Growth rating, #77
Well, I'm glad I got a response from a Louisiana freeper. I'm going to be doing all I can to help us take the senate from the rats, and I want to know we've got good candidates to run in these red states. Bruising primary battles could hurt us.
I know the Louisiana news media like the back of my hand. Many of the reporters I've met over the years. Most are totally ignorant, but the ones who are connected and really know what is going on are completely sold on Progressive theory.
Seldom do they report something without an ulterior motive.
I'm for any candidate who says they will stand with Cruz, Lee and Paul. If Cassidy will do so also, let them battle it out.
Maness is a cipher. I've been politically active here for 35 years. The Louisiana press is boosting him to damage Cassidy.
I'll take your word for it. I remember when Cassidy announced that some were not too impressed. I'd like to see the most conservative candidate nominated. Only conservatives go after liberals. Moderates and go along republicans don't have the stomach for the fight.
Louisiana has an open primary, so there will be no "nominating" primary. Of our sitting congressmen, possibly only Scalise is more conservative than Cassidy. Fleming toyed with the idea of running several months ago, but backed out.
If you have a feel for the political world there, do you think Landrieu can be beaten? And by Cassidy?
Yes. And Cassidy is already campaigning.
Good. She's one phony I'd like to see gone!
We can't botch this like we did those other Senate races,she needs to go!
These Tea Party candidates need to go to some type of boot camp.
They can preach to the choir but a lot of them stumble when in hostile territory. The media lives to bombard conservative candidates.
Scary is that the Rove Republicans are attacking another conservative...using the stupid "liberal media support " excuse against Maness. This is the same crap the Rove Republicans used to sandbag Todd Akin over the rape comment
Whenever someone attacks a conservative with the liberal"splitting the vote" crap....they are supporting the liberal candidate...always
Right on. Maness is the real deal and one of the most exciting candidates I have worked with in my career. You get to know this guy you will get to love this guy.

- Store your battery in the refrigerator. A cool place provides optimal storage for cell phone batteries
- When you are ready to use your stored battery, leave it outside the refrigerator for an hour before using. Cell phone batteries cannot operate at refrigerated temperatures
- Clean the battery contacts on the battery and on the phone with rubbing alcohol. This permits maximum energy transfer between the battery and your phone
- Extend the life of your cell phone battery by not overcharging it and not waiting until the battery dies to charge it
- Avoid charging cell phone batteries for more than eight hours at a time
How to Find a Cheap iPod Charger:
- Go to the large discount retailers on the Internet and search their site for "iPod Home Charger" or "iPod Wall Charger". The price should be under $10 including shipping costs. Always compare different model chargers before you purchase one

- Determine if you an adapter that will connect an iPod USB cable to the wall socket or if you want a complete wall charger. See the image on the left for clarification
How to Make Your Own Charging Dock:
- Cut the shampoo bottle vertically in half starting from the top. However, before you complete the cut, stop about one inch from the bottom so that you retain one inch of the front plastic and the base of the bottle intact. If you do not leave this piece of plastic, your phone may fall out
- Trim the back half of the shampoo bottle by cutting it horizontally with the scissors so that the height of the back is approximately six inches tall
- Narrow down a two inch portion at the top of the back half. This is where the plug of the charger will go into before plugging into the wall socket
- Make a hole in the bottom of the shampoo bottle for the cable to go. The type of phone you have will determine what size and shape the hole should be
- Pierce two vertical slits that are one inch apart from each other at the top of the narrow two inch strip that you cut at the top of the back half. Each slit should be about 0.3 inches tall so that the plug prongs can be accommodated
- Fit the two prongs of the charger into the two slits that you just cut
- Insert the plug with the attached plastic dock into the wall socket so that the dock is suspended
- Pull the cord through the bottom so that only your phone sits in the dock. The cable should be coming out of the bottom and the phone sitting securely in the dock

Lannon - A proposed ordinance to allow residents to raise chickens in the village has gained support so far without any pecking or debate.
At an Aug. 30 Plan Commission meeting, Village President Jerry Newman said discussion to amend the ordinance to allow raising chickens in residential districts went smoothly.
"The legislative committee, in working the thing up, made it pretty restrictive. It's limited, but you can get your own eggs in Lannon," Newman said.
He said restrictions will include a limit of six chickens, no roosters, limits on the size of the chicken coop, design of the coop and that it must a certain distance from property lines. "And they are only allowed in residential districts, no commercial," Newman added.
The village president said residents have approached officials requesting the ordinance change. "There are probably three or four who will do it," he said.
A public hearing on the ordinance is set for 6:15 p.m. Monday before the Village Board meeting.
Chicken discussions in Lisbon, however, have not gone as smoothly. After already debating it nine months, in spring, officials asked the Plan Commission to continue work on amending the town's ordinance relating to raising poultry.
At issue is discussion of whether town officials can "tweak" rules that apply to raising chickens on lots of 1 acre or more. A resident at the town's annual meeting complained that the town's current rules about raising poultry are confusing, and others have questioned whether they could be too restrictive for residents who live in more rural areas.
However, some officials have said other residents have told them they do not want chickens raised in their neighborhoods. The residents have objected to noise and odors that would result from chickens in the subdivision.
The Plan Commission is slated to continue the discussion today. The meeting begins at 7 p.m.
