RTR4LJIP.jpg Arts, Culture & Media Global themes dominate this year's Oscar nominations PRI's The World January 15, 2015 Everyone is buzzing about the Oscar nominations, which were released Thursday morning. But where do you start? If you care about global issues, here are a few suggestions.
RTR1A6IN.jpg Conflict & Justice Poles say aiding the CIA's torture program 'was simply being a good ally' PRI's The World December 09, 2014 Poland was home to one of the secret CIA "black sites" where detainees were held and tortured. But while a new report detailed the abuses prisoners suffered, some Poles wonder why they seems to be the only country willing to take their leaders to task for their involvement.
Hospice hands Flickr.jpg Lifestyle & Belief A new husband's care for his father's dead body changed his wife's view of death and dying To the Best of Our Knowledge December 04, 2014 After someone you love has died, the first of so many difficult tasks you face is deciding how to deal with what they've left behind: their body.
12476-v1-490x.jpg Health & Medicine For the first time ever, a surgery regrows spinal cord nerves — and lets this man walk again Science Friday November 02, 2014 Repairing spinal cord injuries and restoring movement to a paralyzed person has been the subject of intense research for decades — but success has always seemed out of reach. Now a new type of surgery has allowed a Polish man to walk again after having been paralyzed.
Stefan Baluk in 2011.jpg Conflict & Justice A Polish resistance fighter remembers fighting in the Warsaw Uprising — from the sewers PRI's The World October 02, 2014 Stefan Baluk was a Polish independence fighter during the Warsaw Uprising. First he faced the Nazis; then after the war, the Soviets. And it took Poland 50 years to recognize him for his service.
kt_wall_puppy-room.jpg Global Scan Japan's Hello Kitty is not a kitty at all — she's an English school girl August 29, 2014 Hello Kitty has earned herself millions of fans the world over since debuting in the 1970s — but a recent revelation from the company behind Hello Kitty has rocked many fans' world. That story in today's Global Scan.
Serio-comic_war_map_for_1877cropped.jpg.jpeg Conflict & Justice Moscow has a long history of making interesting excuses for its military interventions PRI's The World August 12, 2014 NATO says a Russian invasion of Ukraine is "highly probable." The Ukrainian government says a large convoy of humanitarian aid coming from Russia is just a "Trojan horse." If the humanitarian crisis is indeed a pretext for an invasion, it certainly wouldn't be Moscow's first time.
bangaldesh-flag.jpg Global Scan In Bangladesh, the government doesn't want you to show your World Cup colors June 10, 2014 Bangladesh's national soccer team isn't competing in the World Cup this year, so fans there are flying the colors of Argentina or Brazil — and that has put them afoul of the authorities. The artist behind "Calvin and Hobbes" returns, briefly. And Apple awaits a tax bill, in today's Global Scan.
poland-obama.jpg Global Politics President Obama's visit to Poland highlights a relationship that isn't as warm as it used to be The Takeaway June 04, 2014 The US relationship with Poland has been important since the nation gained autonomy from the Soviet Union 25 years ago. But as Europe becomes more important to Poland, the US place in Polish foreign policy is shifting.
Estonia Cover Pic.jpg Russia's Moves Send Chill Through Estonia America Abroad May 08, 2014 As a member of NATO, Estonia knows it has the full force of the 28 nations behind it should Russia threaten its borders. Recent movements by NATO forces are reiterating that message to Moscow.

http://www.newsmax.com/us/illinois_corruption/2008/06/11/103489.html SPRINGFIELD, Ill. -- The speaker of the Illinois House is circulating a memo outlining how legislative candidates can call for impeachment hearings against the governor, calling corruption during his tenure "a tumor." Interesting, the Democrat Speaker, wants to impeach the Democrat Governor over Rezko and corruption, but this has nothing to do with the Senator from that state does it!
You mean the senator who...nah. what's the point. We all know it. Some of us care, some of us will excuse it. :bricks:
Rezko was a big wheel fundraiser for him, he (obama) did favors for Rezko while in the Ill. assembly (whatever they call it) and Rezko helped (supposedly, depending on who you believe...he's a politician in Chicago, I believe the worst) Obama buy his house. So Obama was in hip deep. IT's one of those stories that if it Rezko was best friends with GWB or McCain or McConnel, it would be all over the news whether there was any truth to it or not. Remember "the seriousness of the charge" stuff?
Rezko's wife bought the piece of property next to the Obama Mansion, then gave him a sweetheart deal on a strip of said property adjacent to the Obama property, both peices were purchased from the same seller... He also gave BO over 250K in campaign donations. People like Rezko expect to be compensated for their generosity..
Rezko- They don't want to talk about this or Barry's Uncle Jeremiah, they would rather attend a "Prince Speech" and faint. Dick Cheney is related to Prince Barack, I wonder if he ever went to church with him, can you just picture Dick Cheney yelling and jumping around with Uncle Jeremiah's "flock"--------:singing: Praise Jesus God Damn America
I hear that. Wish I had friends like that. I'd help them build their deck or pick them up when their truck breaks down.
Obama seems incredibly clean. The owners of the house he bought said he made the highest bid; he paid fair market value for Rezko's piece of property. He was friends with the Rezko since Harvard. What could he have possibly been up to? There's no evidence that Obama did Rezko any favors or otherwise even came close to breaking the law. After the scandal broke with Governor Blagojevich, Obama gave the $10,000 donation he received from Rezko for his Senate campaign to charity. What do you think the real story is?
What about the other 240K given over the years? I'm sure it is just a big cooindence that one of the biggest fixers in Chi town did a land deal with BO and even helped him evaluate the home before the purchase. Didn't know what Wright was about was selected for a paying position by a terrorist, and did a land deal with a political fixer, but he was oblivious to it all. If the guy is this dense should he be running for president?
Patters, if you don't think Obama is a product of the Daley machine, check out how he won his first seat: http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/chi-070403obama-ballot,0,1843097.story Basically he had his henchmen go into a backroom, and dislqualify all the other candidates for the office that he wanted. This guy has never had to actually win an election, he has either stolen them, or ran unopposed by a legitimate candidate. I can only hope he comes out and starts talking about "disenfranchising" talk about the pot calling the kettle black!!!
He certainly knows how to play hardball at a very high level, but you know what? That's true for every major politician. Do you think Obama is the first one to challenge his opponent's petitions? Do you think Obama is the first one to engage in legal maneuvers to give himself an advantage? Come on, FTW, surely you know better than that.
You're casting aspersions without offering any evidence. I can't even find a reference to the 240K you're talking about. What are you referring to? http://blogs.chicagotribune.com/news_columnists_ezorn/2008/06/reality-check-t.html What are you referring to?
Pat, can I ask you a serious, honest question and get a serious honest no party line bs answer? If these allegations were out there about the republican nominee, would you be just as upset as FTW is or would you still be saying "they all do it" and shrugging your shoulders?
As far as political tactics, I have said many times in this forum how much I admire Karl Rove. While I of course despise him as much as I despise the Giants, I respected his ability to play politics. In the political world, political game playing is a vital skill. It's played on many different levels. So, as far as how Obama played politics in Chicago, I have no issue with him doing that, but I wouldn't be opposed to improvements in the political process to make it more fair. As far as Rezko goes, because I support Obama, I've read a lot on the Rezko matter, so I have a good understanding of it. And, honestly, it sounds like Obama has had a good friend since college in Rezko who develoepd into a crook. That's certainly embarrassing and problematic, but I still need to be convinced that Obama did something wrong. McCain's Rezko is the Keating 5 scandal an while I'll use it as political fodder to respond to what I consider unfair accusations against Obama, I certainly don't believe that the Keating 5 scandal reflects on McCain anymore than the Rezko scandal reflects on Obama. I do try to maintain a consistent standard, but I also will play politics when people spread lies and distortions about Obama. As they say in chess, the best defense is a good offense.
LOL...you like Rove, I adore Car-goyle (although his little former partner annoys me to no end, and I don't think he's nearly the stand up guy Jim is). I don't know as Obama did anything wrong either, and honestly--who cares at this point. It will play out, or not. If he did something wrong, the media won't cover it, but like Dan Rather, the blogs will force it.
I haven't seen anything wrong between Obama and Rezko and I read the Chicago Trib daily ( Tribune does not shy away from bashing anyone). I am sure Obama has had his share of cutthroat, borderline ethical, or deceiving actions in his career. Illinois is political hell when it comes to ethics. That being said, since Obama's name hasn't been linked to bribes, corruption, etc, which means he's probably more ethical then a Daley, a Blagojevich,or a Ryan, etc, etc.
The list of people that are "more ethical than a Daley" includes everyone on the planet not named Jeffrey Dhamer.

The logic is simple, and it works great: 1. Create an object and load your xsl file (which I created) 2. Create an object and load your xml file (the Yahoo! news feed) 3. Use the "transformNode" method for your output.
Trouble is, it uses ASP, and I must use html. I tried to 'convert' the ASP code into clientside javascript, and it works fine -- on my computer. But then when I upload the html file to my server and run it, I get "access denied" on the line that tries to open the Yahoo! feed. The code is below.
I tried the following variations, but none of them solved the problem: 1. Instead of Microsoft.XMLDOM, Msxml2.DOMDocument 2. Instead of Microsoft.XMLDOM, Msxml2.DOMDocument.4.0 3. The command: xmldoc.setProperty("ServerHTTPRequest", true)
Now you have the complete context, but what it really boils down to is loading an external xml file from clientside javascript. Maybe it is not possible?
Any solutions would be very welcome. Thank you.
Here is the code:
<html> <body></body> <script> xsldoc = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM") xsldoc.async = false xsldoc.load("rss.xsl") xmldoc = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM") xmldoc.async = false xmldoc.load("http://rss.news.yahoo.com/rss/mideast")<!--HERE IS THE PROBLEM--> document.write(xmldoc.transformNode(xsldoc)) </script> </html>
I was told on another forum that what I want to do is simply not allowed, and it kind of makes sense to me.
I was told of a totally different way to get the job done: feedroll.com. It works quite nicely.

Takawale Makes A Handy Debut
Playing his first ever match for RCB on 24th April, Yogesh Takawale managed to play a handy role in the team.
Having to chase 151 in the 20 overs, Takawale was drafted in to open the innings with Parthiv Patel in the absence of both Chris Gayle and Nic Maddinson. Facing some aggressive bowling by Morne Morkel from the KKR camp, Takawale kept his calm and played some shots of his own to deny any success to the pumped up opposition.
He smashed 40(28), hitting 8 scintillating boundaries along the way. The way he managed to play bowlers of international calibre was great to watch.
Yogesh Takawale is a 29 year old batsman who currently plays for Tripura in the Ranji circuit, having played for Maharashtra too in the past. In the IPL, he has had a successful stint with the Mumbai Indians too. Takawale was roped in to the RCB squad in the mega auctions leading to season 7 of IPL.

COLUMBIA — The parade starts shortly after 1:15 p.m.
In a long, single-file line, NFL scouts and Missouri coaches stream out of the side door of the Missouri Athletic Training Complex and into the Devine Practice Facility less than 10 steps away. Patriots, Rams, Chiefs, Packers, Seahawks, Steelers, 49ers — the logos are all there, printed on polo shirts and athletic caps of various trailing scouts.
The players are here, too, some accompanied by family members giving last-minute encouragement, others with heads down, focused. Thursday is the Missouri football team's pro day.
Elvis Fisher plods along, his feet splashing through a puddle of melted snow. A scout approaches him, putting his arm around Fisher's broad shoulders and inquiring about his ankle.
"It frickin' hurt at the end of the season," Fisher says, shrugging off the most recent in a long list of injuries. They continue to talk after yanking open the pavilion's double doors.
Sheldon Richardson's entrance can be both seen and heard, as the thump-thump-thump of his iPod escapes out of his ear buds and fills the open air. Many of these scouts are here to see him; some of the fans are, too. As the thick defensive tackle enters, it seems appropriate that a soundtrack follows him as he goes.
It's a 40-yard spectacle.
Along the sideline of the turf field inside Devine Practice Facility, two gold bleachers face each other, separated only by a narrow path of orange cones. Scouts fill each of the bleachers' seats, clutching timers in one hand and notebooks in the other. Still others crowd around them, standing and waiting in the open space.
In the distance, fans, family and spectators are barricaded behind a temporary white fence, looking on with cameras at the ready. As a player approaches the starting line, the hip hop music blaring out of overhead speakers cuts out, leaving only a mixed chatter of whispers and clicks.
Then, the voice.
Kip ... Edwards.
The name is announced loudly, clearly, slowly. Missouri's senior defensive back crouches low, and pauses. The crowd noise goes away. The camera clicks intensify, enough so that if you close your eyes it almost sounds like crickets on a summer night.
Then, without warning, he bolts.
The routine is repeated, over and over, with a different runner every time. Kendial Lawrence blazes past the scouts, his neon yellow socks a bright blur against the dark green backdrop.
Richardson chugs along, a massive vehicle of swinging arms and sweat — lots of sweat, drenched down the back of his tight Under Armor shirt.
Rolandis Woodland, Jared McGriff-Culver, Fisher and T.J. Moe — they all run, they all stop, they all wonder about their times.
For 20 minutes, those 40 yards are all anybody sees. The bleachers face them, the fans gravitate to them and the players holler as their teammate blazes past the cones.
Then it's over, and the timers stop.
Tonia Gooden can't bear to watch.
Wearing a black jersey displaying the No. 25, her son's number, Gooden steps off of the bleachers and walks quickly towards the nearest exit. She climbs a stairwell just outside the turf field, stopping to take a few minutes in the darkness to breathe, and cry.
Down those steps, on that field, her son is proving himself yet again. Zaviar Gooden already turned heads at the NFL Combine, running the fastest 40-yard dash of all participating linebackers.
Today, he jumps higher than anybody, causing a surprised crowd to "ooh" and "ahh" and ask their friends if they saw it. He backpedals quickly, darting towards footballs and snatching them out of the air in one fluid motion.
In a gray tank top that seems to be struggling to contain his massive chest, the sculpted Zaviar Gooden runs, then stops, then runs again.
After taking a few more deep breaths, Tonia Gooden composes herself and walks back down the steps, rejoining the mass of people excitedly watching her son. A woman nearby asks her if she's all right.
"I'm just nervous," she responds quietly.
As the various exercises wind down, the pro day's participants slowly head towards the exits, where they meet reporters, and voice recorders, and still more cameras.
Richardson arrives late, and as he approaches the crowd swarms him like zombies on a victim.
The recorders poked firmly in his direction, he smiles and soaks it up. Richardson, these reporters know, has never avoided the attention. The lights reflect off his forehead, which is still glistening with sweat from the day's drills.
When he's asked which NFL teams have expressed interest in him, Richardson doesn't hesitate. He smiles again, knowing his answer.
"The whole NFL wants Sheldon Richardson," he says.
The crowd is nearly all gone now, the drills completed, the show over. Ray and Tonia Gooden linger, waiting to take a few celebratory pictures with their son.
In the middle of the field, quarterback James Franklin and running back Henry Josey remain, sitting leisurely on the large Tiger painted on the turf. They talk casually, Franklin lying back as if he's lounging on a faraway beach. Josey chomps on an apple, and they laugh.
In front of them in the distance, a series of banners hang side-by-side from the pavilion's ceiling. Each has printed on it a picture, and a name.
Smith. Smith. Hood. Daniel.
The NFL is above them, hanging from the rafters. It's also behind them — Richardson and Gooden — walking out the door.
For Franklin and Josey, though, all that will have to wait.

FA 'likely' to probe chant claims
The Football Association is set to investigate apparent anti-Semitic abuse by West Ham fans towards Tottenham supporters at White Hart Lane.
- Related Content
An FA spokesman said it was "likely" that the governing body would launch a formal investigation once the match officials' reports had been received.
Hammers fans appeared to mock the gassing of Jews in the Holocaust as Spurs supporters were allegedly subjected to a second dose of anti-Semitic abuse in the space of four days.
Just a matter of days after Ashley Mills was stabbed before Thursday's Europa League game in Rome, West Ham supporters sang 'Viva Lazio', 'Can we stab you every week?' and hissed on several occasions, apparently mocking the mass execution of Jews during the Second World War.
There were also reportedly chants about Adolf Hitler during the match, which Spurs won 3-1.

Quirky News
Girl finds 7ft snake in toilet
A seven-year-old girl lifted the lid on the family loo - and found herself staring at a seven foot long boa constrictor.
Police in Hanover, Germany, managed to photograph the monster snake and call in wildlife experts before it disappeared back down the U-bend.
Wildlife experts believe the snake was once a pet and had escaped from a nearby home using the sewage system to move around looking for food.
"People buy these snakes when they are young and they grow very large very quickly and scare the life out of their owners who try to flush them down the lavatory or release them into the drains," said one.

Kashmir is cited by Pakistan as the ONLY reason for the whole of its external and internal security philosophy. It may have been true until the 1970s. I doubt it if it still is true.
Developments in the last thirty years have shown that even if India were to hand her portion of Kashmir to Pakistan, there may not be peaceful intentions on Pakistan's part. India's secular ideology, relatively more successful multi-religious society and, above all, the best economic progress in South Asia will always irk Pakistan.
But, considering it historically, I hope one can see the efforts made by India to find a solution to this intractable 'Kashmir issue'.
Even in the chaos of the events of 1947-48, Pandit Nehru had signaled to Pakistan that she will have control over one-third plus of the old state of Kashmir. Indian army was asked to stop at the first defensible features of the state. A sort of 'family partition', as "Hindu Kaffir", a regular contributor had put it.
It was Nehru who took the matter up with the UN. The UN Resolution required both India and Pakistan to vacate their troops and paras from the state. Both have tied themselves into knots - "You first, you first..". The first party to take armed action was Pakistan.
The Shastri-Ayub Accord signed in Tashkent called for a number of measures agreeable to India but not to Pakistan.
The Shimla Accord of 1972 has suffered the same fate.
The ManMohan - Musharaff Accord has suffered a 'still-birth'.
A close scrutiny of these measures will show that Pakistan wants everything on its terms. She is not willing to compromise at all.
BUT as in the case of individuals, nations too must stop from going mad over any issue.
Any obsession that causes one to suffer so much haemorrhage is not worth living with.
Fever of 'religion', a belief that 'double games' [See Vijay Pandit's contribution, above ] will succeed, a belief that terrorism is a useful policy of survival - these are the cancers Pakistan has to fight herself.
Nations have an obligation to put their house in order through their own efforts. 'Conspiracy theories' that Pakistanis believe in are, in effect, psychological sops that divert their attention from reality.
All who talk of appeasement remind me of Chamberlain.
Please bury the ghost of appeasement for once and all.
The solution to Pakistani/ISI colonizing army ( read the work of
Ms Ayesha Siddiqui regarding Mili-Bus collusion in Pakistan) is
the dismemberment of Pakistan. Nothing else is going to help.
The Hydra Headed monster will keep claiming more lives till it is
not crushed with one final fatal blow.
Pakistan has always been something of a failed state. It has long worried me more than any other Islamic country. Perhaps if India would agree to settle the Kashmir issue with a reasonable regard for the founding blunder, Pakistan would have a chance.
Given below is an article from B Raman. The URL is given first. The major part of the text follows the URL.
I just hope, wish and pray that this comes to pass as soon as possible.
The dilemma posed by Pakistan to US policy-makers and opinion-moulders is reflected in an editorial titled "Dealing With Pakistan" published by the New York Times of May 28,2010.
Terrorists are the main foreign exchange earners of Pakistan. The more the terrorists operating from its soil, the more the aid from the West to deal with them. The more the aid from the West, the more the terrorists on its soil.
The Pakistani leaders--military and political-- feel that as the main source of threat to the security of the US and other countries of the West, the terrorists on its soil have brought for it a strategic importance and attention which it would not have otherwise secured.
When Pakistan was born in 1947, it had a two-commodity economy-- cotton and cotton-based textiles and leather goods. It continues to have a two-commodity economy. It has not been able to diversify it. In the past, what it earned from the export of these two commodities was sufficient to keep it going and to meet its imports bill. Today, it is not.
Today, it needs a substantial extra source of income to be able to meet its imports bill and service its external debt. In the absence of any significant economic development, it is dependent on assistance from the West--mainly from the US-- to keep the economy and the state going and to avoid bankruptcy.
During the cold war, its willingness to let its territory be used by the US for its campaign against the erstwhile USSR brought it the required aid flow from the US. The end of the cold war saw its importance in the eyes of the US decline. This was accompanied by a decrease in cash flow.
Pakistan's value as the surrogate of the West in its campaign against the USSR was replaced by the spectre of its becoming the main source of threat to the security of the US and other Western countries from the terrorists operating from its soil. The cash flow was resumed and it kept increasing--this time not for assisting the US in fighting against the USSR, but for its supposedly collaborating with the US in its efforts to contain and neutralize terrorism originating from its soil.
A two-pronged policy of collaboration became its new strategic weapon-- seeming collaboration with the US against the terrorists in return for the cash flow and collaboration with the terrorists against the US for keeping the US fears of a terrorist attack on the US homeland alive and for preventing any threat to its own security from the terrorists.
If terrorism emanating from the Pakistani soil dries up, its importance in the eyes of the US will again decline just as it happened when the threat from the USSR ended. It is in its interest to keep terrorism alive so that the fears of the US remain alive and money continues to flow from the US for keeping the terrorists under control.
The US finds itself in a thankless situation. The more the aid it gives to Pakistan to deal with the terrorists, the more the incentive for Pakistan to keep the terrorists alive and active to keep alive the fears of the US. If it reduces its aid to Pakistan, there is a danger of Pakistan not doing even what it is doing now to deal with the terrorists.
Pakistan of the 1971 vintage is becoming an increasing threat to the homeland security of many nations of the world--in the West as well as the East, in the Ummah as well as in the non-Islamic world. One has to work for a reduced Pakistan to make this threat manageable and ultimately eliminate it.
"Playing along" with extremists for short-term gains, is a dangerous part of South Asian political culture. Pakistan's army, ISI and a lot of her politicians are clear examples of this. To a lesser extent, you can see this in Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka and in India.
Punjabis (Muslim, Sikh or Hindu) are an energetic, hard-working, brave and ambitious people but sadly prone to 'direct action' irrespective of consequences. Some Punjabis can be naieve / simplistic when it comes to violent schemes.
West Punjabi Muslims believed in the 1940s, that 'pure land' and 'pure joy' will arrive as soon as Hindu and Sikh Punjabis were killed or driven out of their new country. That was done successfully, giving them a 98% 'pure' population - at a cost of about one million innocent people killed on both sides of the new border.
Such hatred does not disappear over-night - it demands more targets. Enter the Christians, Ahmadis, Shia, Ismailis and so on.
Pakistan's ideological platform requires continuous human sacrifices.
This is but a natural extention of any theocratic ideology. It will not be long before everybody is judged on the purity of their faith.
Whether it is Kashmir, Afghanistan or for that matter the taliban, if one is unable to separate religion from politics and instead use it as an excuse in the pursuit of gain, how can any of this be a surprise?
The Pakistan of today is nothing like the nation that was envisaged by its founder.
A truly horrific event. Some of the words used in this context both inside and outside Pakistan are Orwellian. Even in supposedly liberal publications like Dawn, most of the articles do not use the word "mosque" to describe the Ahmedi mosques that were attacked. As long as people continue to judge the validity or otherwise of others' religious beliefs...
Also, what's with the economist describing the Sharifs as "conservative, mildly islamist" when their ministers campaign with SSP and murder of minorities doesn't count as domestic terrorism. Did you forget about Nawaz wanting to be the emir of the faithful?
Classic case of as you sow, so shall you reap.
For the sake of the common man in Pakistan, I hope the government stops distinguishing between acceptable terror and not-acceptable terror.
The great state of Punjab is at a nexus; The Punjabi youth (on both sides of the partition border) are well known for their tendancy toward extremism and restlessness. Punjabi Taliban will increase their foothold and constituents and possibly end up controlling the state.
the Us pumps money and weapons into the Pak army.The Pak army is widely known for its links with terrorist groups(brimming with hatred for the US and/or India).Bravo to exceptional vision and commercial acumen from the american weapons industry.
The so-called Punjabi Taliban have historically been groomed by Army agencies to wage a low cost and debilitating guerrilla war against India in Kashmir.
It is time for Pakistan's latter day 'Bismarks' to realise the folly of their ways - for the sake of liberating Kashmir these geniuses may end up destroying Pakistan altogether.
Pakistan can only contain the frankenstein monster they created for so long...it will be interesting to see if the terrorists attack schools where the military kids study or the residential areas the military families live and not just where common people live (and die). I wish they do

On Killing: The Psychological Cost of Learning to Kill in War and Society
On Killing: The Psychological Cost of Learning to Kill in War and Society (Paperback)
Related Editions |
The good news is that most soldiers are loath to kill. But armies have developed sophisticated ways of overcoming this instinctive aversion. And contemporary civilian society, particularly the media, replicates the army's conditioning techniques, and, according to Lt. Col. Dave Grossman's thesis, is responsible for our rising rate of murder among the young.
Upon its initial publication, ON KILLING was hailed as a landmark study of the techniques the military uses to overcome the powerful reluctance to kill, of how killing affects soldiers, and of the societal implications of escalating violence. Now, Grossman has updated this classic work to include information on 21st-century military conflicts, recent trends in crime, suicide bombings, school shootings, and more. The result is a work certain to be relevant and important for decades to come.
About the Author
A former army Ranger and paratrooper, Lt. Col. Dave Grossman taught psychology at West Point and was the professor of Military Science at Arkansas State University.

Doctor's Orders: Peri-Workout Nutrition
One of your most crucial nutritional windows comes after each workout. In the post-workout period, your body needs fast-digesting carbs - 40-to-100 grams, depending on your size, diet and workout - to replenish glycogen stores depleted by weight training and to maximize muscle protein synthesis. By adding a good 40 grams of protein immediately after a workout, you provide your body with the raw building materials for repairing and constructing new muscle mass.
Much like the pre-workout shake I recommend, the post-workout protein source should be a protein shake. Again, you need fast-digesting whey so that it gets to your muscles ASAP for faster recovery and to better boost muscle growth. A whole food protein at this time will again take too long to digest and you'll miss the window of opportunity right after a workout when the muscle cells are eager for nutrients.
The same goes for carbs - here you want to focus on fast carbs, such as Vitargo or pure dextrose. Dextrose is glucose, which is what your blood sugar is. So, when you consume dextrose, there is no time needed to digest it. It is absorbed into your blood stream almost as quickly as you consume it. An easy and fun way to get in postworkout dextrose is to try Wonka Pixy Stix, Wonka Bottle Caps, or Wonka Sweetarts.
Active Rest
Remember that every rest day should be an active rest day. Rest days are for recovery; they're not an excuse to be lazy. Get out and hit 15-30 minutes of HIIT cardio today, or perform 30-60 minutes of your favorite activity: hiking, biking, walking, playing a sport, etc.

The SC-HC3 achieves high quality sound from compact speakers. The Bamboo Cone Speaker produces crisp, clear vocals. And the two passive radiators that are positioned at the front and back of the speaker unit cancel out vibrations inside the speaker to suppress unwanted vibrations and deliver robust bass sounds. The slide-type door allows easy insertion and removal of an iPod™ or CD, even in tight spaces. This special iPod™ dock lets you easily connect an iPod™ directly to the main unit without using any cables. You can then select songs from among your iPod™ favourites with remote operation.

The Road So Far...Hej folks!So I have been a little bit silent since my birthday and everything, the fact is: a lot has been happening! Which is good, but also makes me busy as hell...When I first moved to France, one year ago, people told me about an expression that they say it defined life in France: "Metro-boulot-dodo" (that means, "underground+work+sleep", meaning that you wake up, take the tube go to work and than come back home so tired that all you do is sleep. And that was your day.) When I first heard it I thought: "How dreadful. This will never happen to me.". But now, I think this may be quite accurate in a way...lol So back to art-related news:One thing not being said enough since my birthday:Thank you all guys for the amazing gifts and the wishes!!!It really touches me deeply, every wish and every marvelous drawing I received! Also, when I got back from Prague I found this amazing blue package
