The United Progressive Alliance government has termed "pro-rich" and "anti-development" the BJP's prime ministerial candidate, Narendra Modi's promise to consider abolishing income tax if he was voted to power.
A similar proposal was examined and rejected by Prime Minister Manmmohan Singh when he served as Finance Minister in the P.V. Narasimha Rao government in the early 1990s, Minister for Rural Development Jairam Ramesh told The Hindu. "Economist Raja Chelliah had also been asked to look into it."
"Mr. Modi is good at abolishing, cutting down and killing... The proposal only means that he wants no development, and he wants only the richest to survive," Minister of State for Revenue J.D. Seelam said. "He wants to cut taxes for the rich businessmen and doesn't want to improve the quality of life of the poor."
"So far, Mr. Modi has betrayed ignorance of geography and history. With this idea, he will have added economics to that list," Mr. Ramesh said. "Before Mr. Singh, this was tried out in the late 1950s by the then Finance Minister, T.T. Krishnamachari, on Hungarian economist Lord Nicholas Kaldor's advice, but was given up... In the 1980s, it was championed by Vasant Sathe and nixed by L.K. Jha."
"There is not a single significant country in the world, outside of tax havens and the UAE, that does not tax income," Ernst & Young National Tax Leader Sudhir Kapadia told The Hindu. "If income tax is abolished, the biggest beneficiaries will no doubt be those who earn more or the rich, and this will be regressive. More importantly, will you be able to even afford the elimination of a source of revenue?"
Mr. Kapadia said that if the new government could adopt the tax proposals in the first draft of the Direct Tax Code, it would be a tremendous achievement as it would address the middle-class constituency that parties were trying to please.

With so many good books being published every month, some literary titles worth exploring can get lost in the stacks. Page One offers the first lines of a dozen recently released books, including Kazuo Ishiguro's The Buried Giant and Reif Larsen's I Am Radar, as the starting point for a closer look at these new and noteworthy titles.
Publishing veteran Debra Englander gives an overview of the self-publishing process, followed by a conversation with literary agent Ted Weinstein—who represents Keith Devlin, NPR's Math Guy and author of numerous traditionally published books as well as the self-published title Leonardo and Steve: The Young Genius Who Beat Apple to Market by 800 Years—and publicist Amy Packard about the opportunities available to independent authors as well as the challenges they face.

Surprising, I know:
Surprising, I know:
Yeah but then you'll have countries bribing officials to become one of the 4 locations.
Best way to do it is random country generator. Who wouldn't want an Olympics in Chad?
Putin says, hold it every time in places that are historically part of Russia -- Moscow, St. Petersburg, the Crimea, etc.
Alaska, Lithuania, Poland, Georgia (NntG), ... in fact, I'm sure he'd be willing to consider a request for annexation by any country or territory wishing to compete for an Olympic Games under this criteria.
I don't think that's fair. I think they should do more multi-country bids like Japan-South Korea in 2002. It puts less pressure on the country to spend all the time and money building and renovating stadiums. And they still get an influx of tourists and attention from the world media.
The multi-country bids are fine for the smaller countries (like Japan-SK) because of travel, but it just isn't necessary in most countries that should be hosting it.
If FIFA just stuck to first world countries (South Africa, Brazil and Qatar do not qualify) everything would be fine. It should be in Europe 75% of the time, with the occasional US and Japan/SK thrown in from time to time. Nowhere in Latin America can handle it.
Right. The World Cup has no business in Argentina or Brazil or Mexico--there's no interest in soccer there and they don't have any stadiums worthy of hosting.
It's hilarious that you said Brazil who can't get there shit together for this World Cup and has been having riots and is generally unsafe outside of a few small areas. And do you think crime-ridden Mexico is a good idea? Americans don't even go to most of the vacation spots because of crime, let alone the bigger cities.
Having soccer fans around doesn't make a country a good fit to host the WC.
I like you man, but kinda finding you bigoted, I've lived in Mexico my whole life in a peacefull town in central México, I have many american friends as they come often as exchange students and spanish students abroad. i've myself visited the US a few times and I just don't think that you really know what are you talking about. Also, Brazil is perhaps the best team ever in soccer, so they deserve just because of that to host a Wolrd Cup after 64 years.
I'm not bigoted at all. There are beautiful parts of Mexico, but much of it is terribly unsafe, and American tourists have been urged to avoid much of the country. This is not my opinion. But until Mexico's government decides to do something about the cartels, that will be the case. My wife's family is from Guatemala, and they don't feel comfortable traveling to most of Latin America.
Regarding Brazil, I guess it just depends on what your criteria is for a WC bid. If it's "they are good at soccer" then fine, Brazil fits. But if you want a country with infrastructure and safety, Brazil is not it. Many WC organizers pulled out due to all of the riots, they have awful traffic infrastructure and they might not have multiple stadiums finished by the times the WC starts. You could avoid all of that by picking a first world country. It's like saying Green Bay deserves the Super Bowl because the Packers have been so good for so long. It just doesn't make as much sense as putting it in Miami.
That FIFA does not seem to be concerned with the fears of a potential American tourist whose soccer-watching career apparently ended after the first game he saw on TV is not, in itself, a sign of corruption.
I'm not taking about me. But like I've posted a few times, I'm pretty tuned in to the economics of the ticket sales because of a family business and I can tell you fans around the works care, as therefore so should FIFA. Like RioThan said, if you want to throw a country (or a continent) a bone every now and then, that's fine. But they did that with South Africa last time, Brazil this time and Qatar coming up.
What is FIFA's motivation when picking a host country? Isn't it mostly economical?
Well It's unsafe as everywhere in the planet, I do not feel comfortable walking through drug plantations but then again I never do that, I feel it would be a shame if the only factor to decide wheter or not a tournament should take place in one place or another just because of economics, not only because it would alienate many countries but also because it would morph into some snobbish festival. Add to it that Brazil isn't the sisters of the poor in economy really, sure they're not a global power but I'm pretty sure they're solidly within the top20 how many countries are we talking about? 6? that's not a "World" Cup.
Green Bay would be a great place to have a SB if not for the cold, and its the same american people that would skip it because of that, if the SB was in June I bet you've had already had more than one SB there. And didn't they just pick Detroit like 8 years ago? I'm not saying that it was a great desicion but they made it regardless of economic reasons.
I do think that the world cup in Qatar is a bad idea, and it doesn't have anything to do with them as a country, it's because of the weather as you pointed out with Green Bay, Brazil doesn't have that problem. I also have a problem with the time zones, europe want's to watch those games that's why during the 94' US cup the games were played at around noon, not the best time of the day to run around a pitch for 90 minutes, and with a World cup in Qatar the games would be played most likely during the evening wich would be in the middle of the night here wich I don't like.
It's too bad to hear about bribes but FIFA guys are shameless.
Do you honestly feel Mexico is just as safe as anywhere else on the planet? I have a number of Mexican-American customers and acquaintances who don't go back to their hometowns because they don't feel safe. Even in Cancun there are men carrying assault rifles everywhere you go.
Well I'll awknoledge that I don't live in a border town, I live in a central Mexico colonial town, very quiet, and I really feel safe here, I avoid going to the beaches in Michoacan for example, but that's it, I don't feel the need to go to a border town like Laredo, Juarez or Tijuana and whenever I'm at Mexico City I do feel safe, of course I don't stay in the worst neigborhoods. I'm not saying that is the most safe country out there but it really doesn't seem unsafe to me living a quiet life in a colonial and touristy city.
But if the WC was in Mexico, you'd need to pick a dozen or more towns with big stadiums to host. I don't see that in Mexico.
Well Mexico city has 3 very nice ones, Guadalajara has a couple including omnilife wich is pretty nice the best in america latina for sure, they're building a new one in Monterrey, there are nice stadiums in Pachuca and León, Territorio Santos modelo is also new, it's only like 4 years old. They'd have to build or upgrade stadiums and I'd like them to stay out of cities like tijuana, they have an stadium, but I feel like people woulnd't like to go there... all in all, there's something, the same with Brazil and Argentina for example, brazilian stadiums need to be upgraded, but I'd feel shocked If they don't have at least 200 profesional teams.
Look, I don't want to make it seem like I'm hating on Mexico. I've been to Mexico twice already this year (one place I loved and the other I'll never go to again), and Mexico has incredible history, art, music, and food. I have a special affection for Latin people because I married into a Latin family, so my sons are half Hispanic.
But on the whole, Mexico has some issues that would prevent them from being an ideal option to host the WC. That's all. They are certainly not the only country to fall into that category, in fact most do.
Weren't you bragging about how you chose your doctor based on race or ethnicity?
I said I chose a Jewish doctor when I moved because I've always had a Jewish doctor, so if that makes me a bigot in your eyes, fine. But nothing I've said here is bigoted at all. I've simply said some countries make more financial sense to host the WC over others. That's not a knock on any individual from any of those countries, but some countries are better fit for it than others.
I love how people can saw Qatar is a bad choice and that's fine, but I say Mexico is a bad choice and I'm a bigot.
I don't think travel is that big of a deal. They had it in the US in cities coast to coast and there wasn't a problem. Brazil is a bigass country too. 2018 will be in Russia, although it's all in the western half, but that's still a pretty expansive region.
I don't see why they couldn't hold it in the large cities of Brazil and Argentina in the same WC. Or in the US, Mexico and Canada. Or in a couple safe cities across Asia.
I don't know if I'd go that far, but I do think Greece should host the Olympics regularly, like every 3-4 times. It's the home of the Games, and spent itself into bankruptcy building those venues. The IOC should throw them a bone.
They are still in debt from the Olympics a decade ago.
Of course, they are still in debt from everything a decade ago.
But now they have the facilities - maybe they need a minor retouching now that it's been 10 years, but they're there. They don't need to build a ton from scratch. If they were to host the Games now, they'd make a big profit.
They need to do more than some minor retouching. A lot of the venues have been abandoned at this point.
I'm shocked....
I am shocked, shocked! to find that bribery is going on in here...
corruption in FIFA? What next?
a lot of the injuries you see on the soccer pitch really aren't injuries at all.
And here I thought Italians were the fastest-healing players in the world due to their heavy pasta diet.
I never watched soccer. A few World Cups ago, a friend of mine told me to watch a game with him, and I agreed. There was an injury, and it was so severe that the player needed to be taken off the field on a stretcher. I thought maybe soccer was tougher than I had given it credit. That player was back on the field within 2 minutes of game clock.
And that essentially ended my soccer watching career.
While i 100% agree with you that it drives me nuts watching soccer players roll round on the ground pretending to be dead or something only to return moments later it does happen here too from time to time.....
Everybody hates that stuff, but the English Premier League is an exception. Now that there are more games on television here I've gained a respect for the EPL and its players. These guys are tough, strong, incredibly fast athletes and by and large they offer very little theatrics. Plus, they play the damn game straight up with no stoppage, unlike our sports where they stop for a potty break every 8 minutes, but I digress...
A lot of it is to catch your breath/slow play seeing as there are no time outs.
Fine. But you know that's extremely rare.
The big difference between European athletes and American athletes is ego. Most American athletes will try as hard as they can to act like they aren't hurt even when they are, to show how tough they are. European athletes don't seem to care if people think they're tough, because they will roll around in agony after not even being touched.
Basketball players will stand in, take the charge, make it look like they got knocked to the ground, and then immediately get up. They either get the call or they don't.
They don't writhe around on the ground like little girls pretending they are hurt. The whole crowd would laugh at them if they did.
That drives me nuts in Soccer. It does not need to happen. It's the fault of the refs for patronizing it. If the theatrics did not consistently work, there wouldn't be any.
The part i don't understand is why they think "amount of pain inflicted" has anything to do with getting a call. I get the flopping or diving, fine. I don't agree with it, but if you flail to ground, it looks like you got fouled. By why is the grabbing your shin (which is the only part of your body with padding) and screaming in agony necessary?
If I were a European soccer ref I would say "Suck it up, you pussy" about a dozen times a game.
Amen to suck it up you pussy.....
I always imagine the euro-pussy's screaming (in a girl's voice) "I'm dead.....I'm dead....LOOK HOW FUCKING DEAD I AM EVERYONE while they roll around like my dog when he finds a smelly dead fish.
What's strange is that most of the prominent soccer nations also have a strong rugby culture, and that is incredibly brutal and those guys never show pain.
And of course hockey players are notorious for playing with terrible injuries.
They do it in Soccer because it works. It's the fault of the refs for not just ignoring it.
Yes, the refs can give out cards for intentional diving, but that's the wrong approach. It still focuses on making the ref an audience for theatrics. Just tell them to ignore it and play on.
What's strange is that most of the prominent soccer nations also have a strong rugby culture,
I wouldn't quite say that. There are basically six countries (counting the UK nations separately) in Europe that play rugby, and one of them (Italy) is not that good at it. There are four Southern Hemisphere countries (New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, Argentina) that are really into rugby, but the first three aren't all that big in soccer. Then there's a couple of Pacific Island countries that play rugby but not soccer. That's about it.
It is because diving can win you games, which is by far and away the most important thing at the professional level. By diving in the middle of the park and going down like your leg exploded you can definitely shifts a ref mindset of 1. The player who fouled you and 2. How he is calling the game. This can eventually lead to a distinct advantage for your team through a red card/foul in or around the box. I feel diving is especially common in HUGE games (UCL or league title implications) or huge mismatches where one team is really going to have almost 0 good goal scoring opportunites.
Insert Dwyane Wade in a wheelchair with an elbow injury as well...
Countries need to prove infrastructure and capacity BEFORE being selected, not in anticipation of selection. The current structure rewards building rather than effective usage of existing infrastructure
My brother-in-law runs a ticket broker company for major events, and the WC is their bread and butter. They are in-touch with all of the going on around tournament, and he was just telling me that a couple stadiums are set to be finished within 2 weeks of when the WC begins, and that's if there are no set backs, which there always are in construction. Even if everything goes fine, you typically want a stadium finished 90 days before you use it to test everything, count seats, etc. They will have 14 days, and that's with rushing all the construction.
Since Brazil has extremely poor building codes and half of the stadiums were thrown together helter skelter, I wouldn't be surprised if there was a crazy collapse like we've seen before.
He also thinks the Qatar WC will bancrupt his company, because who wants to go to Qatar.
Qatar's really, really easy to get to from Europe. Like a 5-6 hour flight from almost every European capital. That whole stretch of coast from Qatar to Abu Dhabi is already a pretty big tourist destination. They'll have no problem selling the tickets.
Distance has little to do with it. Abu Dhabi and Dubai are popular for a particular type of tourist, but many people do not want to go to the Middle East. Couple reasons: safety and booze. One of the major problems the major FIFA sponsors are having with Qatar is that it's dry (not desert dry, but no alcohol dry). They are considering making an exception to allow alcohol sales within the stadiums only, but there will be no bars, no beer tents, none of that. Qatar is also very unwelcoming to women and people of various ethnicities.
They're also moving the WC to some wacky time of year so that it's not 140 degrees during the games, probably November. This is not a typical travel time for most people, unlike the summer when the WC usually is.
Um...I've been to Qatar. There are women everywhere, as well as multiple ethnicities. It's a relatively friendly country, so I'm not sure where you're getting the hostility from.
It's not my hostility. Outside of the US, I'm not going to the WC regardless of where it is.
My brother-in-law, who makes his living selling tickets primarily for the WC, has already heard from many of his major clients that they will be skipping Qatar. There are a lot of people who aren't big on travelling to Muslim nations, regardless of whether or not that's founded on fact.
Terrorism is something that scares people at any major event. Without crossing any lines here, hosting the event in the Middle East certainly doesn't quell those fears.
Have you been in the summer? I heard it gets to around 120. That is pretty hostile level of heat if you ask me.
Now Qatar wants to move the WC to the winter.

New Copley fire captain sworn in
|Chris Bower, at left, who has been with Copley Fire Department for 12 years, was promoted to captain at the Copley Township Board of Trustees' Nov. 6 meeting. He is shown with Chief Michael Benson, who swore him in.

Trustees approved the promotion following an executive session Oct. 16.
Bower has been active in emergency services for about a quarter of a century, serving with the Copley Fire Department the past 12 years, said Benson.
Following an assessment in which all Copley firefighters participated, Bower "came out on top" to be awarded the promotion, said Benson.
Bower attended the meeting with his wife, Crystal, father and three daughters.
"We are still on the record pace we've been on all year," Benson told trustees during his regular report to trustees regarding his department's activities in October.
He expects the Fire Department to have another "highest-year-ever record" for call volume, he added.
According to his monthly report, his department responded to 197 calls for assistance in October. Year to date, the department has responded to 4 percent more calls than at this time last year.
Police Chief Michael Mier said his department recently worked with safety forces countywide to catch a ring of individuals breaking into cars and restaurants.
"We experienced many thefts in the Montrose area," he said, "and those individuals were actually caught in Montrose.
"We think that arrest probably brought an end to this series of thefts" taking place in several communities across Summit County, he added.
Also at the meeting, trustees opened six bids received for the Janwood Drive culvert replacement project. The nearly 50-year-old culvert is undersized, and its replacement is expected to help improve drainage problems, according to the Summit County Engineer's Office.
The lowest bidder was Rudzik Excavating, of Struthers, whose bid was just less than $64,000.
In other business, trustees approved spending $4,815 for design services needed to upgrade the township's website, continuing with Copley company InfoTeam. The website will be go from Joomla 1.5, which is no longer supported and subject to bugs and security issues, to Joomla 3.x, according to trustees.
"We concurred we like what we have, but we do need the upgrade," said Trustee Helen Humphrys.
Also at the meeting, Service Director Mark Mitchell said the CUE (Community University Education Purchasing Association) has signed an agreement with Cargill for road salt for this season, resulting in a reduction in price from $44.81 to $39.84 per ton. Copley still has to purchase 253 tons on last year's contract before the new pricing will take effect, he added.
In other action, trustees:
- approved orders to remove vegetation and/or debris from properties at 3352 Brenner Road and 4836 Ridgewood Road. Both landowners were sent certified mail requesting maintenance, but the township received no response. If the cleanup does not take place within 10 days, trustees will hire a contractor, with costs entered on the owners' tax duplicates, according to resolutions approved by trustees;
- approved Benson to be a panelist on the Local Government Innovation Fund at the 2014 Ohio Township Association conference next February at no cost to the township;
- accepted donations to the township's Police Department, including $1,950 from the Ohio Attorney General's Office as an initial payment for a drug-use prevention grant; $1,170 from Presentation of Our Lord Orthodox Church for the Share-A-Christmas Fund; and $1,000 from Fairlawn Rotary Foundation Inc. for Safety Town;
- approved spending $4,240 with Ziegler Tire for 10 truck tires, eight rear tires and two steer tires for two 5-ton plow trucks;
- approved a resolution to not object to vacating 0.6 acre of unimproved roadway on Reserve and Fineview avenues; and
- noted the township's Architectural Review Board approved developer Pulte Homes' plans for tree preservation, landscaping and buffering for the Miller Farms subdivision, after four months of planning, according to Planning Director Matt Springer.
Following an executive session, trustees made a conditional offer of employment for part-time firemedic Jonathan Smith.
The board's next meeting is set for Nov. 20 at 6 p.m. at the township offices, 1540 S. Cleveland-Massillon Road.

»Marilyn Manson w/ Deap Vally
April 11, 2015 8:00 PM
Ohio-born Marilyn Manson is often cited as being a negative influence on youth because his outlandish stage persona and controversial lyrics center around "shock rock" sensibilities. Behind all the excessive make up and immoral songs, though, lies a guy who knows exactly what he's doing. The very nature of his existence is polemic and the more attention Manson attracts, the more publicity he gets. So, in theory, the stranger he gets, the more widespread his image becomes. Though it's his image that has brought him notoriety, he is, in actuality, a musician with a very good ear--often discovering new artists and acting as producer for upcoming bands.

Digital Extremes had stated a few days ago that Microsoft's indie publishing policy was the only thing holding the studio back from an Xbox One version of Warframe, stating, "We would love to see Warframe on Xbox One, the ball is in Microsoft's court with regards to allowing titles on their system that come from an independent developer and not an established publisher."
With the announcement of the reversal of that policy, the developer's response was simple, "We'd be silly not to consider Warframe for Xbox One now. The system itself will be awesome and now the landscape of games that it supports has just become limitless. Exciting times."
Consider that a soft confirmation of an Xbox One version of Warframe.

...can anyone tell us what the Comedy Manual Phrase is for Xbox 360?
i.e. the warning phrase that is repeated throughout the manual in a worrying but also amusing way.
For Xbox, it was something like "...or the Xbox may fall and injure a small child". (pretty good)
For Dreamcast, it was "...otherwise the Dreamcast may catch fire." (the original, and still the best)
What is it for Xbox 360?

So basic and fundamental, you should read it at least once.,
Rezension bezieht sich auf: Flow (Taschenbuch)
Csikszentmihalyi (pronounced chick-ZENT-me-high) did some original research into enjoyment. He strapped pagers onto people and it rang 8 times a day at random. Whenever it rang, the subject was to write down what they were doing and rate their state of happiness and enjoyment on several scales. After 100,000 of these reports, he has found out some fascinating (and USEFUL) information about work, enjoyment, and creativity.
I have read this book several times, and I'm always forcibly struck by the profundity of the first few chapters. The writing goes deeper and more to the heart of the human condition than anything else I've ever read. Csikszentmihalyi lays it out so straight and honest that it is almost a shock to the system.
The chapters that follow are pure genius in my opinion, and they all have a solid, practical value. If you would like to "get into" your work more, if you would like to ENJOY your work more, you should read this book. I am the author of the book, Self-Help Stuff That Works, and I'm an expert on what is practical and helpful and what isn't. It's not often a book is both profound AND practical, but this one is. I recommend it highly.

I've been trying on how to add a new index in a dictionary using a for loop.
I want to keep adding indexes with a for loop each time I enter the value, the 'index' through a function.
So the dictionary just keep growing.
For example:
My dictionary has it's values as lists, and to add values to that list, I can use dictionary[index].append(value)
In a function:
dicc = {'index':[]}
def addStuff(i = '', v = ''):
for i in dicc:
dicc[i].append(v) #adds values to the list
but it doesn't occurs me adding indexes
I've been trying, and it seems it just doesn't come to mind, yet. So I would want to know what ways there are to keep dictionary's indexes growing through a function. Maybe and probably it's something easy to do, but right now I'm sort of blocked, and yes I've been trying, ... this is why I came here. Thanks in advance. :)

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
From the Daily Show to a weekly deal of his own
If there's a funny person on television who has earned a shot at hosting his own funny TV show, it's John Oliver.
The bespectacled Brit comedian put in eight solid years as a member of the fake-news-team ensemble on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, closing out his career-making run by filling in for Stewart for eight weeks last summer while the Daily Show host was on hiatus directing a movie.
At the same time, Oliver built a reputation as a solo performer by starring in a made-for-cable standup-comedy special, John Oliver: Terrifying Times, and then hosting four seasons of John Oliver's New York Stand Up Show on U.S. cable's Comedy Central.
He's more than ready. And now, the time has come.
Oliver returns to TV this Sunday on HBO Canada (check listings for time) with a weekly fake-news show of his own, Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, a satirical look at the past seven days in news, politics and current events that will most definitely play to his strengths as a cynic, critic and able dispenser of Brit-accented righteous indignation.
The biggest challenge facing Oliver and Last Week Tonight is carving out a unique place and identity in a satirical news/commentary landscape that already includes his former home, The Daily Show, its very popular spinoff, The Colbert Report, and HBO's long-running Real Time with Bill Maher.
When he faced the media for the first time after his HBO show was announced last January, Oliver -- a graduate of Cambridge University who was a member of the prestigious Cambridge Footlights comedy troupe (whose alumni list also includes John Cleese, Graham Chapman, Peter Cook, Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie) -- said his goal was to create a show that delivers fast-breaking comedy while taking full advantage of the added writing time that airing weekly, rather than daily, will allow.
"I have talked to (Stewart) a lot ... and I don't think there's a worry that it will be too similar (to The Daily Show)," the 36-year-old native of Birmingham, England, said during HBO's portion of the U.S. networks' semi-annual press tour in Los Angeles.
"You know, it's me. And I am different, so we'll approach things in a different way. We're going to be on once a week, so we'll have extra time to have a different perspective on things. The attractive thing about being on at the end of the week is, you know, you can look backwards and also forward at the week coming."
Because of the current-events nature of the program, no previews were made available for Last Week Tonight. But during the January interview, Oliver promised that his unique position as a transplanted Brit who has adopted America as his home will allow him to tread an interesting line as he comments on goings-on both on U.S. soil and around the world.
"It's different," he said. "My view has changed because I view this as my home now. You know, I arrived here as an imposter on a visa, and now I am a legal permanent resident. It's so romantic, that.
"You know, I usually start standup gigs by saying some version of 'I love it here, and I need you to remember that during the things I'm going to be saying over the next hour and a half.' ... I think I can play it both ways, because I'm a green card recipient, which means I can't vote and I am taxed. So that is taxation without representation -- and now I get why you got so pissy about it all those years ago.
"But, yeah ... America has been very generous in what it has offered up as joke subjects over the years. And American politics, in particular, is a circus of crazy that is unparalleled around the world. You can take that as both a compliment and an insult, (because) I meant it as both."
Oliver said he's fully aware of the debt he owes to Stewart and The Daily Show, particularly since it was his two months as fill-in host that led directly to HBO offering him his own weekly premium-cable slot.
"I think it's probably the main reason why I'm here now," he explained. "(Hosting) was a bizarre, exciting, and terrifying experience... I can't really (comment on how well it went) because I didn't watch it. I did it. So I don't really know how it went down. But it's still on the air, the show. I set myself the achievable goal of just not destroying that particular franchise.
"So the fact that it's still there and Jon is still doing it, that I took that as a 'W' in the 'win' column. I guess it went well."

Homemade recipe for spraying for mites.
I found this on the Brug forum by Kasha77 and wanted to post here because I think many plumeria growers get mites when growing them inside during the winter.
A great recipe for a homemade spray to repel and smother spider mites and aphids-
In a small sauce pan, boil 2 cups of water:
2 aspirin ( kills viruses that especially affect doubles, and helps boost plant immunities against them)
2 tsps of grated garlic (the stuff in the jar is fine)
Strain the garlic / aspirin mixture and pour into a 1 quart spray bottle.
Then add-
1 tbl of Canola oil ( or any veg. oil)
1/4 cup of lemon juice
2 tsp of baking soda
1 tsp of Dawn dish liquid
1/8 cup of alcohol
a few drops of Super thrive.
Add water to make 1 quart.
Shake well as you use it.
Water plants well first, then spray in the evening.
Personally, I wouldn't use Malathion- I think pests tend to build up a resistance / tolerance to chemicals after a while. Remember to raise the humidity by spraying your brugs- spider mites thrive in a dry environment.
I have not tried this recipe, but will probably do so in hopes of keeping them away. What I am curious about is how do people spray their plants. I've read about many people spraying them, but never really seen any postings on how they actually go about doing that. I can only imagine the mess this would make and I wouldn't want it in my house.
So lets hear from those who have sprayed for mites. Do you move the plants to the shower to spray? Do you move them outside and then bring back in? I really can't think of how I'd do this without making a real mess inside.
Here is a link that might be useful: Brug posting for mite recipe
I spray my tropicals with the spray(neem oil, dish soap, pro-t-k solution) once a month. I place a big table vinyl cover sheet in the centre of my sunroom, take one plant at a time and spray them top/under by placing the plant on the plastic sheet. Lot of spray falls on the sheet. I group as many plants that fit on sheet and turn on the ceiling fan to dry out. What ever mess with spray that would be on the vynyl table cloth only. Once the spray dries out, I move the plants to their location and make sure the rest of the spray dries out on table cloth and then move it to garage for storage. This is working very good for me without mess on my floors and furniture around during winter.
For some plants I move them to shower to wash them fully and then spray them with solution.
I've said it before and I'll say it again - a few doses of Antistress 2000 a few days apart will kill mites for good. Haven't seen a mite in my cactus/ succulent/ plumeria/ tropical collection in 2 years now.
Do a forum search for details and an explanation. It worked exceedingly well for me and is a harmless polymer.
There is another product that looks similar to Anti Stress 2000. It's called 'Moisturin' and is a bit cheaper. I ordered some online, but it arrive frozen solid and was then basically useless. I'm trying to get a replacement. The main ingredients are the non-toxic polymers that provide a semi-permeable coating to the plant. It is used in the hort industry to coat cuttings and prevent them from drying out too fast. I will report results when I finally get some and try it.
They're going to refund my money. Honestly, I've ordered live orchids from Hawaii in winter and they've arrived just fine. I suggested they use a heat pack when shipping, but they're probably too lazy. Will have to try to order again in March or April.

China plans to put the breaks on "Avatar's" record-breaking run.
Authorities are pulling the non-3D version of the science fiction epic from screens across the country as of Saturday, according to theater operators and state media, apparently for political and economic reasons.
China Film Group, the state-run domestic distributor of the Hollywood blockbuster, has reportedly ordered cinemas to stop showing the 2D version of James Cameron's global hit by this weekend on the orders of China's censors. The 3D and IMAX versions of the movie will continue their run into February.
Repeated calls to the distributor's spokesman Tuesday went unanswered.
Reportedly, part of the reason is to reduce competition for China's homegrown films, like the state-backed biopic of Confucius, the ancient Chinese philosopher, starring Hong Kong superstar Chow Yun-fat, which opens this Thursday.
The Beijing Youth Daily on Tuesday quoted UME International Cineplex assistant manager Liu Hui confirming the pullout at theaters in the capital. She said it won't affect the cinema's revenues.
"In UME, the 3D and Imax version make up 90 percent of our box-office income, so it won't affect the majority of viewers. With the pullout of the 2D version, movies like Confucius will gain some room for showing," she said.
The other sensitivity is to the movie's plot regarding the forced evictions of the alien Na'vi race by humans — a story line that some have said draws unflattering comparisons to China's own, often brutal removal of millions of residents to make way for property developers.
Columnist Huang Hung penned a commentary in the official English-language China Daily, saying the film had struck a chord with Chinese viewers.
"All the forced removal of old neighborhoods in China makes us the only earthlings today who can really feel the pain of the Na'vi," she wrote.
"Avatar" is already the biggest box-office success in China, pulling in more than 300 million yuan ($44.1 million) as of Jan 12. It quickly surpassed last year's "2012" and "Transformers 3."
In theaters across the financial metropolis of Shanghai, word spread quickly that the 2D version of the movie would be gone by the weekend. All versions of the movie were originally scheduled to run through Chinese New Year in mid-February.
It's "not just our theater. The 2D 'Avatar' is going to be stopped everywhere," said a ticket sales manager at Nanjing Peace Theater who refused to give his name because he had not been authorized to speak to media.
"If you want to see it, seize the opportunity now — even for 3D! We just listen to the command from the relevant authority, although we will lose some ticket sales for sure," he said.
Associated Press researcher Ji Chen in Shanghai contributed to this report.
