Verizon Center, Washington, DC
The Miami Heat are on the verge of clinching home-court advantage throughout the playoffs, but it's unclear who will be on the court for their first attempt.
With their lineup likely changing from game to game until the end of the regular season, the Heat will also try to set the franchise's single-season victories record and snap the Washington Wizards' lengthy home win streak Wednesday night.
Miami (61-16) needs only one more win or a Spurs loss to guarantee a home-court edge, but it's dealing with absences from its star players. Dwyane Wade missed his fifth straight game Tuesday with a sprained ankle and a bruised knee, and Chris Bosh was out with an illness after sitting in Saturday's win over Philadelphia because of a sore knee.
The Heat, though, got LeBron James back after a three-game absence due to a strained right hamstring and he scored 28 points in a 94-83 win over Milwaukee on Tuesday.
Miami matched the 1996-97 club's record for victories in a season.
"We've done so many great things this year by just playing the game at a high level, playing for one another," James said. "Along the way, when those accolades come as far as team wins, the streak that we had, we really enjoy it."
Before that game, James said he likely won't play in all of the five remaining contests in the regular season.
"I mean, I want to play, but I'm going to go against myself for the first time in my career. No, probably about the third time in my career," he said. "I sat out a few games when we had it all locked up in Cleveland (in 2009-10) as well, to just try to use those games to get healthy."
Wade's status is also unknown for Wednesday's visit to Washington, though he will travel with the team after participating in Tuesday morning's shootaround. Bosh is not expected to make the trip to the nation's capital.
"With the minor injuries that we have with our team, everything has to be day-to-day," coach Erik Spoelstra said.
If the Wizards face a short-handed Miami squad, they'll try to use it to their advantage and match their 10-game home win streak from Dec. 13, 2006-Jan. 20, 2007. Washington (29-49) has won the past two games against the Heat at the Verizon Center, with the latest a 105-101 victory Dec. 4.
John Wall was out for that game and two subsequent losses in the series, and the Wizards are 24-21 since his return from a knee injury. He's averaged 25.2 points on 59.6 percent shooting during Washington's home winning streak.
The point guard's 33 points Tuesday were hardly enough to help the Wizards in the finale of a two-game trip as they were blown out 120-99 by New York.
Miami has done a fine job containing Wall in his last four matchups in the series, holding him to just 9.3 points per game. Wall, though, has averaged 10.0 assists.

The cuckoos are a family, Cuculidae are the sole taxon of the order Cuculiformes.[1][2][3] The cuckoo family includes the roadrunners, koels, malkohas, couas, coucals and anis. The coucals and anis are sometimes separated as distinct families, the Centropodidae and Crotophagidae respectively.
The cuckoos are generally medium sized slender birds. The majority are arboreal, with a sizeable minority that are terrestrial. The family has a cosmopolitan distribution, with the majority of species being tropical. Some species are migratory. The cuckoos feed on insects, insect larvae and a variety of other animals, as well as fruit. Many species are brood parasites, laying their eggs in the nests of other species, but the majority of species raise their own young.
Cuckoos are medium-sized birds that range in size from the little bronze cuckoo, at 17 g and 15 cm (6 inches), to the channel-billed cuckoo, at 630 g (1.4 lbs) and 63 cm (25 inches).[4] There is generally little sexual dimorphism in size, but where it exists, it can be either the male or the female that is larger. One of the most important distinguishing features of the family are the feet, which are zygodactyl, meaning that the two inner toes point forward and the two outer backward. There are two basic body forms, arboreal species (like the common cuckoo) which are slender and have short tarsi, and terrestrial species (like the roadrunners) which are more heavy set and have long tarsi. Almost all species have long tails which are used for steering in terrestrial species and as a rudder during flight in the arboreal species. The wing shape also varies with lifestyle, with the more migratory species like the black-billed cuckoo possessing long narrow wings capable of strong direct flight, and the more terrestrial and sedentary cuckoos like the coucals and malkohas having shorter rounded wings and a more laboured gliding flight.
The subfamily Cuculinae are the brood-parasitic cuckoos of the Old World.[4] They tend to conform to the classic shape, with (usually) long tails, short legs, long narrow wings and an arboreal lifestyle. The largest species, the channel-billed cuckoo, also has the most outsized bill in the family, resembling that of a hornbill. The subfamily Phaenicophaeinae are the non-parasitic cuckoos of the Old World, and include the couas, malkohas, and ground-cuckoos. They are more terrestrial cuckoos, with strong and often long legs and short rounded wings. The subfamily typically has brighter plumage and brightly coloured bare skin around the eye. The coucals are another terrestrial subfamily of long tailed long legged and short winged cuckoos. They are large heavyset birds with the largest, the greater black coucal, being around the same size as the channel-billed cuckoo. The subfamily Coccyzinae are arboreal and long tailed as well, with a number of large insular forms. The New World ground cuckoos are similar to the Asian ground-cuckoos in being long legged and terrestrial, and includes the long billed roadrunner, which can reach speeds of 30 km/h when chasing prey. The final subfamily are the atypical anis, which include the small clumsy anis and the larger guira cuckoo. The anis have massive bills and smooth glossy feathers.
The feathers of the cuckoos are generally soft, and often become waterlogged in heavy rain. Cuckoos often sun themselves after rain, and the anis hold their wings open in the manner of a vulture or cormorant while drying. There is considerable variation in the plumage exhibited by the family. Some species, particularly the brood parasites have cryptic plumage, whereas others have bright and elaborate plumage. This is particularly true of the Chrysococcyx or glossy cuckoos, which have iridescent plumage. Some cuckoos have a resemblance to hawks with barring on the underside; this apparently alarms potential hosts, allowing the female to access a host nest.[5] The young of some brood parasites are coloured so as to resemble the young of the host. For example, the Asian koels breeding in India have black offspring to resemble their crow hosts, whereas in the Australian koels the chicks are brown like the honeyeater hosts. Sexual dimorphism in plumage is uncommon in the cuckoos, being most common in the parasitic Old World species.
Cuckoo genera differ in the number of primary wing feathers as below.

The cuckoos have a cosmopolitan distribution, ranging across all the world's continents except Antarctica. They are absent from the south west of South America, the far north and north west of North America, and the driest areas of the Middle East and North Africa (although they occur there as passage migrants). They generally only occur as vagrants in the oceanic islands of the Atlantic and Indian Oceans, but one species breeds on a number of Pacific islands and another is a winter migrant across much of the Pacific.[6]
Cuculinae is the most widespread subfamily of cuckoos, and is distributed across Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia and Oceania. Amongst the Phaenicophaeinae cuckoos the malkohas and Asian ground-cuckoos are restricted to southern Asia, the couas are endemic to Madagascar and the yellowbill widespread across Africa. The coucals are distributed from Africa through tropical Asia down into Australia and the Solomon Islands. The remaining three subfamilies have a New World distribution, all three are found in both North and South America. The Coccyzinae reaches the furthest north of the three subfamilies, breeding in Canada, whereas the anis reach as far north as Florida and the typical ground-cuckoos the south west United States.
For the cuckoos suitable habitat provides a source of food (principally insects and especially caterpillars) and a place to breed, for brood parasites the need is for suitable habitat for the host species. Cuckoos occur in a wide variety of habitats. The majority of species occur in forests and woodland, principally in the evergreen rainforests of the tropics. Some species inhabit or are even restricted to mangrove forests; these include the little bronze cuckoo of Australia, some malkohas, coucals, and the aptly-named mangrove cuckoo of the New World. In addition to forests come species of cuckoo occupy more open environments; this can include even arid areas like deserts in the case of the greater roadrunner or the pallid cuckoo. Temperate migratory species like the common cuckoo inhabit a wide range of habitats in order to make maximum use of the potential brood hosts, from reed beds (where they parasitise reed warblers) to treeless moors (where they parasitise meadow pipits).
Most species of cuckoo are sedentary, but some undertake regular seasonal migrations and others undertake partial migrations over part of their range. The migration is diurnal, as in the channel-billed cuckoo, or nocturnal, as in the yellow-billed cuckoo. Species breeding at higher latitudes migrate to warmer climates during the winter due to food availability. The long-tailed koel, which breeds in New Zealand, flies to its wintering grounds in Polynesia, Micronesia, and Melanesia, a feat described as "perhaps the most remarkable overwater migration of any land bird."[7] The yellow-billed cuckoo and black-billed cuckoo breed in North America and fly across the Caribbean Sea, a non-stop flight of 4000 km. Other long migration flights include the lesser cuckoo, which flies from Africa to India, and the common cuckoos of Europe, which fly non-stop over the Mediterranean Sea and Sahara Desert on their voyage to central Africa.[8] Within Africa 10 species make regular intra-continental migrations that are described as polarised; that is, they spend the non-breeding season in the tropical centre of the continent and move north and south to breed in the more arid and open savannah and deserts.[9] This is the same as the situation in the Neotropics, where no species have this migration pattern, or tropical Asia, where a single species does. 83% of the Australian species are partial migrants within Australia or travel to New Guinea and Indonesia after the breeding season.[10]
The cuckoos are for the most part solitary birds that seldom occur in pairs or groups. The biggest exception to this are the anis of the Americas, which have evolved cooperative breeding and other social behaviours. For the most part the cuckoos are also diurnal as opposed to nocturnal, but many species call at night (see below). The cuckoos are also generally a shy and retiring family, more often heard than seen. The exception to this are again the anis, which are often extremely confiding towards humans and other species.
Most cuckoos are insectivorous, and in particular are specialised in eating larger insects and caterpillars, including noxious hairy types avoided by other birds. They are unusual among birds in processing their prey prior to swallowing, rubbing it back and forth on hard objects such as branches and then crushing it with special bony plates in the back of the mouth.[11] They also take a wide range of other insects and animal prey. The lizard cuckoos of the Caribbean have, in the relative absence of birds of prey, specialised in taking lizards. Larger, ground types such as coucals and roadrunners also feed variously on snakes, lizards, small rodents, and other birds, which they bludgeon with their strong bills. Ground species may employ different techniques to catch prey. A study of two coua species in Madagascar found that the Coquerel's coua obtained prey by walking and gleaning on the forest floor, whereas the red-capped coua ran and pounced on prey. Both species also showed seasonal flexibility in prey and foraging techniques.[12] The parasitic cuckoos are generally not recorded as participating in mixed-species feeding flocks, although some studies in eastern Australia found several species participated in the non-breeding season, but were mobbed and unable to do so in the breeding season.[13] Ground-cuckoos of the genus Neomorphus are sometimes seen feeding in association with army ant swarms, although they are not obligate ant-followers as are some antbirds.[14] The anis are ground feeders that follow cattle and other large mammals when foraging; in a similar fashion to cattle egrets they snatch prey flushed by the cattle and enjoy higher foraging success rates in this way.[15]
Several koels, couas, and the channel-billed cuckoo feed mainly on fruit,[16] but they are not exclusively frugivores. The parasitic koels and channel-billed cuckoo in particular consume mainly fruit when raised by frugivore hosts such as the Australasian figbird and pied currawong. Other species occasionally take fruit as well. Couas consume fruit in the dry season when prey is harder to find.[12]
The cuckoos are an extremely diverse group of birds with regards to breeding systems.[4] The majority of species are monogamous, but there are exceptions. The anis and the guira cuckoo lay their eggs in communal nests, although this behaviour is not completely cooperative; a female may remove others' eggs when laying hers.[17] Polyandry has been confirmed in the African black coucal and is suspected to occur in the other coucals, perhaps explaining the reversed sexual dimorphism in the group.[18] The majority of cuckoo species, including malkohas, couas, coucals, and roadrunners and most other American cuckoos, build their own nests, although a large minority engage in brood parasitism (see below). Most of these species nest in trees or bushes, but the coucals lay their eggs in nests on the ground or in low shrubs. Though on some occasions non-parasitic cuckoos parasitize other species, the parent still helps feed the chick.
Non-parasitic cuckoos, like most other non-passerines, lay white eggs, but many of the parasitic species lay coloured eggs to match those of their passerine hosts.
The young of all species are altricial. Non-parasitic cuckoos leave the nest before they can fly, and some New World species have the shortest incubation periods among birds.[17]
About 56 of the Old World species and 3 of the New World species (pheasant, pavonine, and striped) are brood parasites, laying their eggs in the nests of other birds.[17] These species are obligate brood parasites, meaning that they only reproduce in this fashion. In addition to the above noted species, yet others sometimes engage in non-obligate brood parasitism, laying their eggs in the nests of members of their own species in addition to raising their own young. The best-known example is the European common cuckoo. The shells of the eggs of brood-parasites are usually thick.[19] They have two distinct layers with an outer chalky layer that is believed to provide resistance to cracking when the eggs are dropped in the host nest.[20] The cuckoo egg hatches earlier than the host's, and the cuckoo chick grows faster; in most cases the chick evicts the eggs or young of the host species. The chick has no time to learn this behavior, so it must be an instinct passed on genetically. The chick encourages the host to keep pace with its high growth rate with its rapid begging call[21] and the chick's open mouth which serves as a sign stimulus.[22]
Cuckoos have various strategies for getting their egg into a host nest. Different species use different strategies based on host defensive strategies. Female cuckoos have secretive and fast laying behaviors, but in some cases, males have been shown to lure host adults away from their nests so that the female can lay her egg in the nest.[23] Some host species may try to directly prevent cuckoos laying eggs in their nest in the first place – birds whose nests are at high risk of cuckoo-contamination are known to mob cuckoos to drive them out of the area.[24] Parasitic cuckoos are grouped into gentes, with each gens specializing in a particular host. There is some evidence that the gentes are genetically different from one another.
Female parasitic cuckoos sometimes specialize and lay eggs that closely resemble the eggs of their chosen host. Some birds are able to distinguish cuckoo eggs from their own, leading to those eggs least like the host's being thrown out of the nest.[22] Parasitic cuckoos that show the highest levels of egg mimicry are those whose hosts exhibit high levels of egg rejection behavior.[25] Some hosts do not exhibit egg rejection behavior and the cuckoo eggs look very dissimilar from the host eggs. It has also been shown in a study of the European cuckoos that females will lay their egg in the nest of a host that has eggs that look similar to its own.[26] Other species of cuckoo lay "cryptic" eggs, which are dark in color when their hosts' eggs are light.[23] This is a trick to hide the egg from the host, and is exhibited in cuckoos that parasitize hosts with dark, domed nests. Some adult parasitic cuckoos completely destroy the host's clutch if they reject the cuckoo egg.[23] In this case, raising the cuckoo chick is less of a cost than the alternative—total clutch destruction.
The parasitism is not necessarily entirely detrimental to the host species. A 16-year dataset was used in 2014 to find that parasitized crows' nests were more successful overall (more likely to produce at least one crow fledgling) than cuckoo-free nests. The researchers attributed this to a strong-smelling substance secreted by cuckoo chicks when attacked that repels predators, and commented "Interactions that have been clearly classified as 'parasitic' or 'mutualistic' might be more complex. Perhaps we need to look more closely at these interactions before giving species such tags or labels".[27]
Cuckoos are often highly secretive and in many cases best known for their wide repertoire of calls. Calls are usually relatively simple, resembling whistles, flutes, or hiccups.[28] The calls are used in order to demonstrate ownership of a territory and to attract a mate. Within a species the calls are remarkably consistent across the range, even in species with very large ranges. This suggests, along with the fact that many species are not raised by their true parents, that the calls of cuckoos are innate and not learnt. Although cuckoos are diurnal, many species call at night.[17]
The cuckoo family gets its English and scientific names from the call of the common cuckoo, which is also familiar from cuckoo clocks. Some of the names of other species and genera are also derived from their calls, for example the koels of Asia and Australasia. In most cuckoos the calls are distinctive to particular species, and are useful for identification. Several cryptic species are best identified on the basis of their calls.
Cuckoo chicks start to mimic the cries that their foster parents' young make from the moment they hatch, a scientist has proved.

"This game will be bigger than Skyrim!" - Bill Corbett, Rifftrax/MST3K
WARNING: This is REAL retro gaming! Be prepared for vast, unique levels with challenging boss battles!
MANOS is an homage to the great games you remember from your childhood! Remember how every film and cartoon had it's own platform game adaptation? When every man, woman, child, animal and inanimate object were out to get your character? When the streets were filled with bats, ghosts and Frankenstein monsters? MANOS will take you back to the fantastically absurd games of the past!
Lost on their vacation, Mike and his family have wandered the desert trying to find a place to stay, only to wind up in the haunted Valley Lodge. Maintained by Torgo, an unusual man/satyr who "takes care of the place while The Master is away", the hotel is swimming with paranormal activity which Mike has to brave through to find his now missing family. Who is The Master, and what does he want with Mike's family? Armed with his trusty revolver, Mike will have to wander the haunted halls, venture out into the desert, uncover a dark temple and battle the forces of darkness to find out!
- Huge levels with boss battles at the end of each!
- True classic gameplay!
- 100% authentic retro style!
MANOS pays homage simultaneously to the worst movies of all time and some of the best games. The gameplay will remind you of CastleVania, Mega Man, Super Mario Bros. and more.

Only a played it once then Black Screen of Doom. It was fun while it lasted, 1 play, then stopped loading.
Ben Smith
Broken for android lg g2 (loads of fun until the glitch) GREAT game, until a glitch makes it unplayable. Level 7 does not scroll. 5 star otherwise
Carlos Lopez
Bummer Game wasnt worth all the frustration due to getting stuck at the beginning of stage 7. Why this game still up for sale if its unplayable?
Raine Phoenix
I like it but... I really enjoy this game, but there are some serious bugs. For example, if I exit the game and then return to it, I just get a black screen. Also, on level 5, the screen glitches out for a few seconds until the first enemy appears onscreen. And, on the 7th level, it doesn't scroll at all. One other minor nitpick is that I'd like to have an option to toggle the button sizes to make it a little easier to control. It sounds like a lot of gripes, but I really do like the game & if they were addressed, awesome!
John Madden
Fun but bugged Please fix the stage 7 scrolling bug on the Android version. It also refuses to load the app again if you exit unless you turn the phone on then off again. Otherwise it's pretty good.
Tim Cantrell
Level 7 What can I say? Good game, but I can't play level 7. I've reinstalled and re played, only to hit the same wall....or lack thereof.

Fun and Challenging Controls could use a little more work (sometimes the A and B buttons fire at the same time), but overall a great, nostalgic game. It also pleases me that it was made with Multimedia Fusion. It's the same software I'm trying to use to build my own apps. I'm using a R97 tablet for this, in case this info is helpful to anyone.
bug on lvl 2 boss I wasn't sure at first whether the problem was just me being terrible at the the game but after watching the trailer on YouTube, I'm fairly certain that I can't do damage to the boss on the 2nd stage. When my shots hit it, there is no reaction or highlight appears on the boss to indicate that I'm making progress. Already uninstalled and downloaded again but I still have the same issue.
FreakZone Games August 9, 2013
This should hopefully be fixed in the update. 60 fps? I think not. It's a great game but... The latest version says that it now runs 60, 60fps the first level 60 frames all the way. The second level when you're not in the side of the level screen it has drastic slowdown, not unplayable but just not as fast. And this is on a nexus 7. Its a great game, and adding continues is a good thing..... But it could be better. Edit: it's still not 60 fps. But if you fix it later that would be great. I'm glad you listened! Thanks!
Wonderful NES game that never was. The Dev gets it. Plain and simple. A lot of Nintendo classic 8bit love went into this game and it shows. Graphics and sound are well received right down to the NES box art style cover. The controls are the real champion here, tight, precise and while not as complex as I would like ( no up or down arrow direction) I understand why they were left out. The presentation overall really made me feel like I was wired into a tube TV from 1986. The only thing missing was blowing on a virtual cartridge before playing
It's awesome! Even though I suck at it, this game is brilliant. The retro style and gameplay mesh together just perfectly. Controls are as easy as you like and it throws me back to the good ol' days of Alex Kidd and Wonder Boy! Congratulations on a game well done. Plus it reminds me of MST3K which is another win! .^_^
FreakZone Games August 9, 2013
It should work with the new update. Great 8-bit game. But no way to save?! This game is pretty fun. Great retro 8-bit action. But why in the world is there no way to save your progress?! I hate to having to start over every time I load up the game. 3-stars until a game save is added REREVIEW 8/10/13: Save state added. 5-stars!!

Call of Cthulhu: The Wasted Land is a turn-based strategy/role-playing game based on the award winning Call of Cthulhu RPG. Set in the midst of World War One, the game pits your team of investigators and soldiers against an ancient enemy, one older than humanity itself... Can your team of investigators keep their grip on sanity long enough to stop these diabolical plans? The fate of humanity is in your hands...
Developed in conjunction with Chaosium and based their multi-award winning Call of Cthulhu RPG.
The game features:
- Full 3D graphics with high quality textures, images and effects to bring the action alive.
- Select from a range of authentic period weapons, equipment, armour, skills and more.
- Build your team up to match your gaming style; will you shred your foes with massed rifle fire or blast them with powerful spells gleaned from forbidden tomes? It's your choice!
Call of Cthulhu was originally the title of a novella by cult American horror writer H.P. Lovecraft (1890–1937) which has, since it was published in 1928, captured the imagination of generation after generation of fans. Returning to the horror from Lovecraft's original 'Reanimator' set during the dark days of WW1, Call of Cthulhu: The Wasted Land draws the player into a nightmare world where the terror of mustard gas and trench warfare are but a foretaste of what is to follow.

I knew that there was a crack in my exhaust manifold on my '99 3ZR; actually I knew to look for it thanks to all the posts I read on TW. There has been a noticeable: loss of power, drop in MPG, increase in noise - and I don't mean a good sound either. I haven't smelled any exhaust leaks in the cab or gotten any CELs, but it seemed that the crack has steadily been getting worse. Or as ******* Toyota diagnosed it, "a leaky exhaust gasket."
My suspicions were confirmed when I took this picture (finally removed that oddly complicated air intake system):
I had been waiting for the group buy on the Doug Thorleys, but I didn't know when that was going to come together, so I went ahead and got the factory kit from Nix 99 in WA. FYI, it took 4 days to Chicago. Obviously not quite as nice as a set of SS long tubes, but looks better than the stock cast piece:
So I pulled the stock part off yesterday, which ended up being a little more of a pain than I figured. Of course, if I had to do it again, I could definitely knock it out in an hour or so. Anyway, I pulled the stock piece off and noticed that the cracks (plural!) were more serious than I thought, and went around the entire manifold. It was only a matter of time before the whole thing cracked completely.
A little deconstruction video here, demonstrating exactly how cracked the manifold was.
You can see by the profile shot just how bad the exhaust was leaking. Note the color of the metal; the dark areas obviously have been leaking exhaust.
So I installed the new part and hooked everything up. Before I reconnected the airbox though, I ran some TB cleaner through the air tube to clean out the TB. Apparently it hasn't been cleaned in quite a while. I backed the truck out of the garage a little bit and blew out quite a bit of white smoke. The alley looked like it was being fogged for mosquitoes.
I'm looking forward to checking the mpg over the next few fillups to see if the new manifold helps. I took the truck for a short spin, and the sound is much better. No more of that "leaky air compressor" sound. There seems to be a bit more of a low rumble, or maybe that's just how it should sound. The manifold has likely been cracked since I bought the truck last October, so I've never really heard a "good" exhaust sound from this truck anyway. At least the sound no longer detracts from the otherwise tough look of the stock truck.
I'm sure the header would sound better, but I didn't want to wait any more. And I doubt the extra couple hp I might get would make much of a difference in my life. The tach almost never sees over 2k anyway.

Fantasy Grapevine - Week 11
December, 11, 2013
By Victoria Matiash | ESPN Insider
AP Photo/Columbus Dispatch/Fred Squillante
It won't be long now. After months of remaining patient, the Columbus Blue Jackets are in line to receive a prized post-holiday present, early in the new year. Scheduled to participate in contact drills in about two weeks' time, forward Nathan Horton is expected to make his Blue Jackets debut near the start of 2014. And the majority of ESPN.com fantasy owners should be figuring out whether the former third-overall NHL draft selection (2003) is worth picking up now.

Constructive Anarchist Thread
Submitted by farmer on Tue, 02/12/2013 - 12:14This website---The Daily Paul---was inspired by a man whose great claim as a member of congress is that he was unable to get his legislation enacted. He is a man whose greatest fear in running for office was that he might be elected. Indeed he is a man who said the Constitution was a "pretty good" contract between the government and the people, but he spent his career and his every effort trying to reduce the size and influence of the government it claimed to create. Listen to his words. Look at his actions. He must recognize that this so-called contract was never one with consent. He must recognize that it was an elitist document imposed on "the people" by force. If Ron Paul does feel there is an acceptable level and use for government, the world around him never let the size of it reach anything close to the level he desires or considers acceptable.
Of course he was accused of being an "anarchist" by his opponents, and even if he was, he couldn't say it. But his efforts were consistent with ours. When I say "ours" I mean anarchists. I mean people like Lew Rockwell, Thomas Woods, and Larkin Rose. They all use different language, and I'm not happy with the language myself, but we all agree (and agree with Ron Paul) that the government we have experienced is a detriment to society. It is sociopathic, and the people who believe in it are psychopaths---they are completely devoid of conscience with regard to their deliberate initiation of violence against others. Of course, the problem is that they comprise 99.9 percent of the population around us. Nevertheless, on this one issue, we are right.
I have created something below. It is an idea. It is a written contract with no signatories---or more properly for those whose word means enough that they need not be written. It is a seed for the creation of an anarchist society.
****************** Commitment and Trust ********************
You and I both know that anyone who desires any level or form of government, especially anyone who desires to participate in it, is an aggressive psychopath. The world around us is filled with aggressive psychopaths, but we are not among them.
It may be that children are born aggressive psychopaths. I have considered you carefully as an individual. I have considered myself. I have concluded we are mature people who have cast psychotic tendencies from our minds and developed good will.
With these things in mind, I propose this solemn and reciprocal commitment between the two of us. This is not a proposal I would make to a child; it is not a proposal I make lightly.
(1) Under no circumstances will I kill you.
(2) Under no circumstances will I coerce you.
(3) Under all circumstances I will seek your well-being.
If you agree, it is done.
I suggest this as a step forward for anarchists and human society. One pairing---one "marriage"---at a time we can build our anarchist society. We must do that or face extinction. We must do it or face the extinction of any level of liberty which can be considered human.
I make this public because the believers in government cannot build a human society. Their foundation is slavery, aggression, and distrust. They have put their trust in the imaginary savior "government," and they must see our example as much as we must see it.

Crime exists
I do not want to communicate any negativity concerning any effort between honest people as they seek to find each other.
There is, on the other hand, a criminal among us, and there are a few more than one, and then there are the few of that criminal group who have been known to set aside their differences and they organize into a criminal gang, and then, even worse for honest people, there are those criminal gangs who have figured out how to make their crimes legal for them to perpetrate while they convince their victims that these same criminals are going to protect those victims from harm, and if you have a better term for those people than the term I use, then we can use your term and we can avoid using my term.
I call a criminal a criminal because a criminal defines the meaning of a crime as a criminal resorts to deception, threats of violence, and aggressive violence upon a targeted innocent victim chosen by the criminal.
I call a gang of criminals an organized crime gang of criminals.
I call a gang of criminals who take over an otherwise voluntary form of government by the term Legal Criminal.
You can use whatever terms you want, but if you claim that there is no such thing as a Voluntary Government, which is something that has existed, does exist, and can exist into the future, as not existing, then you are either ignorant or you do know that voluntary governments have existed, do exist, and can exist, and you are resorting to deceit for some reason; and I can guess the reason, and I can find out the reason, and you can confess the reason if you do know better, and if you are resorting to deception.
There are many very effective lies and this is one of them. The lie that voluntary government cannot exist works to divide and conquer the targeted, innocent, victims.
Perhaps we are on the same "side" here, and language makes communication very difficult.
Case in point:
The people demanding a legitimate democratic assignment of leadership POWER (that can be revoked by the people) hereby attest to our POWER in numbers.
We hereby assign ourselves as leaders of the free world to be counted as such by any other pretenders to the throne. Any laws made by any one of us will apply to every other of us from now on until the extinction of the human race.
Any one pretending to be above the law will be viewed by us as a person volunteering to go outside the universal law.
Universal law applies to everyone equally and blindly.
We the innocent and law abiding citizens of the world attest to our POWER in enforcing universal law by revoking all licenses now enforcing prejudice of any kind upon the innocent; we do so by signing this public petition.
No longer will the power to punish be wielded by criminals. When our number reaches critical mass - legalized crime will no longer be tolerated. We will throw the criminals out of office. No more. No less.
Anarchism, as far as my study goes, does not mean that there is no government, and there is a saying that expresses this understanding as such: anarchism is not "no rules", rather, anarchism is "no (false) rulers".
Anarchism, as far as my study goes, goes back to Zeno of Citium and the Stoics as such:
"Zeno urged the need to lay down a basis for Logic because the wise person must know how to avoid deception."
In America there are 4 notable anarchists starting with Josiah Warren who invented, produced, and maintained examples of Voluntary Government in his work titled Equitable Commerce.
Governing principles are explained in great detail and quotes of relevance include:
[Responsibility must be Individual, or there is no responsibility at all.]
Lysander Spooner's work included a proposal for competitive money.
An Essay on Trial by Jury (useful for any effort to defend against crime)
An expose on The Constitution titled No Treason.
I have to go at the moment, but there are criminals among us and dealing with them in an organized, voluntary, way is to be ignored at a cost.
Also by Lysander Spooner is a very useful report on the Science of Justice that includes a useful soundbite.
The ancient maxim makes the sum of a man's legal duty to his fellow men to be simply this: "To live honestly, to hurt no one, to give to every one his due."
This entire maxim is really expressed in the single words, to live honestly; since to live honestly is to hurt no one, and give to every one his due.
Moving onto the rich history of American Anarchism is the example offered by Benjamin Tucker.
Here is where someone wanting to know why criminals organize into Mobs that then take over Voluntary Government do so, and how they do so, and along the way the move from Voluntary Government to Involuntary Crime Made Legal, Legal Crime, or just Involuntary Government, along the way, there are casualties such as an organized effort for defense, by honest people, using names to accurately identify their numbers, whereby said organized effort of volunteers, seeking the power of organized defense, are corrupted, and the labels, the names, the terms, are counterfeited.
Where once a person may call themselves a Rebel, for example, the term Rebel becomes, in time, a term that is falsely associated with a criminal.
Beware of Greeks bearing gifts, is a saying that applies to such things, such things as Trojan Horses.
So what are we to do now boss?

We might be on the same page. I am only a criminal to the extent that I support and depend on the current system of legalized crime.
Perhaps your "voluntary government" equals my "anarchy;" my "government" equals your "gang of legal criminals." In any case, my point is to encourage people to individually make a commitment to each other because the time is coming when such understanding and alliance will be absolutely necessary. The gang of legal criminals is letting us breath for the moment, but that situation will not persist indefinitely.
Perhaps we part ways in that I think extremely locally. I want a solid commitment with one or two others I can trust. When we are self-sufficient, connected to our neighboring land, and organized to defend it, then I'll worry about building on that. You seem to envision a bit bigger and looser structure. I don't begrudge you that, but I sure hope you can trust it. I hope your "innocent and law abiding citizens of the world" are innocent as much as they are powerful. I may be skeptical about that, but I cannot judge. Therefore, all the best to you.
Update: And I see that you have exactly two signers of your petition. Since this is precisely what my contract above envisions, maybe you ought to get together with Chad and discuss your common defense.

Modular Vertical Farming Units?
You wrote the following and at that point I was immediately inspired to respond; without yet reading any further.
Perhaps your "voluntary government" equals my "anarchy;" my "government" equals your "gang of legal criminals."
I've read your words on this forum and not only do I agree with those words, I think that with effort we can demonstrate how true those words are in demonstrable fact - ao much for my opinions.
I read further and again I see no reason to continue reading without offering a quick reply.
In any case, my point is to encourage people to individually make a commitment to each other because the time is coming when such understanding and alliance will be absolutely necessary.
The principle governing such behavior as described above would be a voluntary arrangement among the individuals agreeing to that arrangement and the goal would be moved toward as time went on by, and the goal would be moved measurably closer in ways that were as agreeable, and as voluntary, so as to actually justify the arrangement in some way. What is that principle?
The gang of legal criminals is letting us breath for the moment, but that situation will not persist indefinitely.
The gang in question has been growing stronger and larger since at least 1788 in America and yet it is a gang that depends upon honest producers of anything worth stealing, so the POWER we have is still ours to recognize and then command at will.
Perhaps we part ways in that I think extremely locally.
Here is where I will give you the benefit of doubt and not automatically take your words as being an extremely insulting comment.
Perhaps we part ways in that I think extremely locally. I want a solid commitment with one or two others I can trust.
Here is my doubt growing as to what I think I should credit you with, as your words are beginning to have that deceptive tone directed at me personally.
Perhaps we part ways in that I think extremely locally. I want a solid commitment with one or two others I can trust. When we are self-sufficient, connected to our neighboring land, and organized to defend it, then I'll worry about building on that. You seem to envision a bit bigger and looser structure.
The familiar ring of falsehood is built upon assumption, and you make claims concerning my use of logic; which I find to be specially insulting.
I don't begrudge you that, but I sure hope you can trust it. I hope your "innocent and law abiding citizens of the world" are innocent as much as they are powerful. I may be skeptical about that, but I cannot judge. Therefore, all the best to you.
The link to my early effort to petition other people, to find friend from foe, employed the word "law," and since then I have found cause to question the words meaning.
I think there may be at least two working meanings for that one word.
Law is whichever person or group of like minded people overpower their targets while using deception, threats of violence, and violence.
Law is whichever arrangement is agreeable to every person volunteering to such an arrangement; without exception.
You may understand how the path of life is a work in progress.
Update: And I see that you have exactly two signers of your petition. Since this is precisely what my contract above envisions, maybe you ought to get together with Chad and discuss your common defense.
As I understand Law there is no need for contact during marketing surveys.
Chad may have felt the same way, he or she never contacted me.

Flu Frenzy Frames Biotechs' Futures
With the avian flu hysteria spreading exponentially faster than the disease itself, investors have been stocking up on Gilead Sciences (GILD - Get Report), the maker of the influenza drug Tamiflu -- the product that appears to offer the best hope against the virus.
Since the start of the year, Gilead's shares are up 49% compared with the 23% increase of the Amex Biotech Index and the almost 2% rise of the S&P 500. The company's market capitalization above $24 billion makes it one of the world's biggest biotechs.
Recently the company has squabbled with marketing partner Roche over the rights for Tamiflu, but it remains at the forefront of any discussion about how best to prepare and protect against the bird flu.
There's little doubt that Gilead has a leading position in this fight, but rather quietly, lesser-known and often very small companies like Biocryst Pharmaceuticals (BCRX - Get Report) and AVI BioPharma (AVII) are stepping up their own attempts at easing spreading fears of a pandemic.
The avian flu, primarily the H5N1 strain transferred from bird to bird, has been detected in more than 100 humans since the first reported bird-to-human case in Hong Kong in 1997. What's been garnering the most attention lately are worries that a mutant human-to-human version could be on the horizon. Now that the disease has leaked westward, with cases showing up in Romania and Turkey, biotech companies are scrambling to develop their own vaccines and treatments for the disease.Treatment Rush
Unlike vaccines, which are given as a preventative measure, antiviral drugs are meant for people already exposed to the virus. The goal with this type of treatment is to kill the invading bug before it spreads. Besides Tamiflu, only one currently approved antiviral flu drug has been shown to work against the avian flu, Relenza from Australia's Biota. Relenza is marketed by drug giant GlaxoSmithKline (GSK - Get Report). On Friday, Biota said it would support the French government's plan to build its Relenza stockpile to 9 million doses in the next two years, but there are concerns about just how much of the drug can be produced. After all, the proposed stockpile equals three times the drug's total sales since its launch in 1999, and Biota is suing GlaxoSmithKline, alleging that the company hasn't adequately supported Relenza.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors
