"One girl can be silenced, but a nation of girls telling their stories becomes free" slideshow
A photo contest winner
Topics: Rand Paul, libertarians, Polls, Pew, Pew Research Center, Reason, Cato, The Right, Editor's Picks, Politics News
The New York Times Magazine recently wondered at length if the long-prophecied Libertarian Moment had finally arrived. Why, just look at the prevailing attitudes in America: openness to same-sex marriage and liberalization of drug laws, aversion to long-term overseas military deployments ("wars"), and … um … Obama is unpopular so people hate government regulation now, maybe? Sure. Well, no. As we wrote, libertarianism as a package is going to be a hard sell to the public as long as it dismisses concerns over economic insecurity and insists upon dismantling the regulatory state and large social insurance programs. But hey, it's great that libertarians and liberals have common ground on and are making headway in social and criminal justice policy.
Who would be the foot soldiers in this Libertarian Moment that's not really arriving? The usual, well-funded thinkers that have given the "movement" a disproportionately large voice within debates in Washington, D.C., for decades — Reason magazine, the Cato Institute — along with a few MTV VJs from the '90s. Also: Rand Paul! Rand Paul is the son of a libertarian and is sort of a libertarian himself and is going to be the next president, after all. And then America will finally be the sexy free-market rock 'n' roll paradise of libertarians' imagination. There is a plan, folks.
But any political movement is going to need more than just a few magazines and think tanks and a scion whose political future depends on the extent to which he's willing to water down his libertarianism. Meaning: Libertarianism needs a lot more libertarians. If libertarianism is going to be the wave of the future, a significant portion of the American populace should a) know what "libertarianism" is and then b) subscribe to it.
Right now that portion is 11 percent — not nothing, but also … 11 percent. That's the figure according to Pew of Americans who "both say they are libertarian and know the definition of the term."
You'd expect, then, that those who know what "libertarianism" is and call themselves "libertarians" would be broadly in favor of the whole ideological package: "social liberalism," for lack of a better term, anti-police state, anti-interventionist, and hella anti-economic regulation and so forth — small government, all around.
That's not necessarily the case among those 11 percent, Pew finds. The 11 percent are, indeed, more likely than the public overall to say "government aid to the poor does more harm than good by making people too dependent on government assistance," and "somewhat more likely than the public overall to say government regulation of business does more harm than good." They're also more likely than the public overall to support legalizing marijuana.
But on cops and foreign policy? Self-identified libertarians-who-generally-know-what-libertarianism-is are a little more supportive than the public overall of letting police do whatever the hell they want and bombing everyone all the time (although the foreign policy question is spectacularly vague):
And they are about as likely as others to favor allowing the police "to stop and search anyone who fits the general description of a crime suspect" (42% of libertarians, 41% of the public).
Similarly, self-described libertarians do not differ a great deal from the public in opinions about foreign policy. Libertarianism is generally associated with a less activist foreign policy, yet a greater share of self-described libertarians (43%) than the public (35%) think "it is best for the future of our country to be active in world affairs."
Pew ran another math-y thing to figure out which "cluster," or political type, these self-identified libertarians are most closely aligned with. You'll never guess which cluster came out on top! It rhymes with "Schmusiness Schmonservatives."
That study used a statistical technique called "cluster analysis" to sort people into homogeneous groups, based on their responses to 23 questions about a variety of social and political values.
None of the seven groups identified by the 2014 political typology closely resembled libertarians, and, in fact, self-described libertarians can be found in all seven. Their largest representation is among the group we call Business Conservatives; 27% of this group says the term libertarian describes them well. Business Conservatives generally support limited government, have positive views of business and the U.S. economic system, and are more moderate than other conservative groups on the issue of homosexuality. However, they are also supportive of an activist foreign policy and do not have a libertarian profile on issues of civil liberties.
So who are your libertarians? A few hundred ideologically consistent professional libertarians working at magazines and think tanks in Washington, and then a bunch of rich conservatives who don't like to associate themselves nominally with those icky anti-gay jerks in the Republican Party. Libertarianism likes to present itself as the "a little bit from column A, a little bit from column B" option, but when it counts, it's a lot more of one than another. Which is why Rand Paul is a Republican and no one entertains the idea of him being a Democrat.

It's good to know that Bert is on his game over there at RG. I'm sure he will continue to provide excellent reports.
I feel better knowing we have a Sam Superfan on the job to give us some accurate intel, but knowing Bert, it's going to be done professionally and respectfully. I doubt he will give up his secrets. I hope he can get some practice footage and pics like last year. That was great.

HI Candace,
Brendan now with a login account yay me!
6.9, now in Peru with a set of aftershocks, now tsunami threat posted through the PTWC.
I have been noticing over the last few weeks that the ksy is jolting! Like the fluid motion and movement of the planet is well off at this time.
Also on realtime a moment ago, the velocity lessened in block from over 700 km/s to mear nothing.........
The sun seems to be listing towards the southwest at sunset and the planes surface feels as though it is rolling to a certain respect and then stopping. Also as our memory and consciousness is connected to the field, I have had moments of sheer memory loss, followed by support from the celestials as well the biggin just aiding with balance and stuff.
Intersting very much to me what a time to be here with the greatest roller coaster ride happening in all respects, could do with a vomit bag though lol!
Yes indeed much needs to happen before go time from fleet et al! Including some exposure of the dark ones and earth changes alplenty, hang onto your hats folks!
See ya somewhere in the middle and go Gaia go, quite windy here tonight with centrifugal winds circling in and around plus is overcast, I am SO excited!
Kind Regards,
Horus In Sun
Brendan, its after equinox, the sun is supposed to be southwest now. it will continue that way at rise and set until solstice in december. then it will begin to move north again. It must be watched each day and noted to determine if its moving in a jerky fashion on the horizons West is difficult for me to get I have to walk to far, but before much longer, I will be able to observe western set from my house without the walk.
The velocity you cannot fully determine from Nict, you must use ace. this sudden changes are usually data outages on the ACE satellite, not a sudden dropping.

We can understand the logic behind making a Metal Gear Solid game for mobile devices — cashing in on the the success of MGS4 on the PS3 by developing watered-down versions of the game on portable platforms like Nokia's N-Gage makes perfect sense. The trouble is that this is a business logic at work that has nothing to do with making good games for this extremely limited platform.
In the game you play the ever-sneaking Solid Snake infiltrating a secret scientific military complex to, ummm, save someone good and stop someone bad ... actually we don't remember why Snake is there, which itself is a testament to the pedestrian nature of the story. The in-game dialogue sequences between Snake and the cast of various good guys and bad guys are well written for the most part, with the characters conversations alternating between that "tough military guy" video game-speak we know all too well, and the characters making fun of the boring army-speak.
Snake is controlled using either the number pad or the navigation pad on your Nokia handset. The controls are simple enough, but are often unresponsive. Luckily, so were the bad guys, who, even after spotting Snake, show all the urgency of pensioners window shopping at a Westfield. The game should revolve around stealth, but the mechanic is so clunky and the bad guys so slow that we eventually discovered it was faster and easier to fist fight our foes head-on, thus robbing the game of most of its skill and interest.
Visually the game is drab and monotone, smattering the heavily pixellated environments in a swamp-like palette of grey, black and various shades of brown. Not that we expect next-generation graphics, but this comes back to our point about understanding how to make games for this limited platform. Nokia phones aren't capable of rendering attractive 3D graphics, so don't make games that require them. The soundtrack is better, featuring a couple of good sneaking songs and sound effects, but is painfully repetitive. At times we attracted the attention of guards simply to change the drone of the low-energy music.

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
05 Sep 2013 12:45 GMT | Politics, Middle East, US & Canada, Afghanistan, France
Allegations that the Syrian regime used chemical weapons last month are a "pretext" by the West to attack the country, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said.
Iran is Syria's main regional ally and has warned Western powers against intervening in the country's civil war, as the United States edges towards launching strikes against the Damascus regime.
Washington and its allies "are using the chemical weapon [allegation] as a pretext," and "are saying that they want to intervene for humanitarian reasons," Khamenei said on Thursday.
"The United States is wrong about Syria, and it is certain they will suffer... just like in Iraq and Afghanistan," Khamenei told members of the Assembly of Experts, the body that supervises his work.
Separately, the chief of Iran's elite Quds Force unit, Qassem Soleimani, said Tehran would back Syria "until the end" in the face of possible US-led military strikes.
Some analysts believe a wider goal of US President Barack Obama's determination to launch strikes is to blunt Tehran's growing regional influence and any consequent threat to Washington ally Israel.
"The aim of the United States is not to protect human rights... but to destroy the front of resistance [against Israel]," the Quds Force commander was quoted as saying by the media on Thursday.
"We will support Syria to the end," Soleimani added in his speech to the Assembly of Experts.
He did not elaborate on the nature of the support and Iran has constantly denied allegations by Western powers that it has sent military forces to prop up President Bashar al-Assad's embattled regime.
'Counsel and advice'
A year ago, the chief of Iran's Revolutionary Guards, Mohammad Ali Jafari, said members of the Quds Force foreign operations unit were in Syria to provide Assad's government with "counsel and advice".
Iran's Defence Minister Hossein Dehqan, meanwhile, ruled out sending troops or weapons to Syria.
"The Syrians do not need us to provide them with weapons because they have a defensive anti-aircraft system themselves," he was cited in the local media as saying.
President Hassan Rouhani said Iran will do "everything to prevent" an attack on the Syrian regime, according to extracts from statements published in the media.
"Any action against Syria is against the interests of the region but also against the friends of the United States in this region," he said.
"Such action will help nobody."
The US, France and other countries accuse Assad's forces of launching chemical weapons attacks on the outskirts of Damascus on August 21, which they say killed hundreds.
Obama is seeking congressional backing as well as broader international support for punitive strikes on Assad's regime.
Iran has previously warned that any military action against Syria risks sparking a broader regional conflagration.

Since the NSA's surveillance program surfaced a month ago I expect them to have the "boys in the lab" work on cooking up a "scheme" to now convince/show the American people that all this is worthwhile.
See this "BIG" arrest we made based on what we've learned about a future terrorist attempt by such and such group.
BUSTED for the whole world to "see" that their program has saved us all for great bodily harm....total BS for those that are wise and understand, but for the "sheeple"...well geez, looks like we need these guys and their program to "keep us safe" after all.

Using NFC Technology for Fast-Tracking Large-Size Multi-Touch Screens
Free registration required
Executive Summary
Multi-touch technology interfaces are becoming ubiquitous since their integration in smart-phones, tablets and many consumer electronics devices. Depending on the size of the tangible interface, the computing resource restrictions and the resolution required, there are different technological alternatives for multi-touch screens such as camera based systems, capacity, resistive or pressure sensing systems or LED based systems. This paper presents a different alternative to deploy medium to large size multi-touch screens with low computational requirements for tracking the user movements based on the Near Field Communication (NFC) technology. The paper makes a review of the main related technologies to create medium to large size multi-touch screens identifying their pros and cons and proposes a different design based on NFC tags and mobile readers.

It is a dilemma. Bass is currently better than Sully and KO on the durability scale. He is better than Jerebko and Datome as well. It is a tough call.I would trade anyone on the roster to land D'Angel more »

South Fellside.
Starting to get ready for our big trip next week. Looking forward to seven weeks away exploring new places and meeting up with friends.
We have two weeks in Vietnam and Cambodia, three weeks in New Zealand and then another two weeks in Burma. An exciting start ...
Lake District & Beatrix Potter
... a little in from the lake, but is considered the major village near each port.
I arrived via train to Windermere, took the bus to Bowness-on-Windermere, walked around for a bit before taking the ferry up to Waterhead. I decided to sit top deck to get the best views and consequently froze all the way up haha. My hostel is at Waterhead and is right on the water front. My room has the most amazing views over the lake.
Over the Hill
... powerful. Thoughts were crossing my mind now, would I be the only fool to walk this far in this wind? And if so, what would happen if I sprained my ankle now? How would I get back down? Would anyone even hear my whistle in this wind if I needed to use it? I put all of that firmly behind me, it couldn't be far to the summit and I wasn't coming all this way to not get there. Then a different shape emerged slowly from the swirling mists, I had finally made it. I ...
Wet n windy retreat
... Day 3
With the weather forecast just as bad as the last couple of days, we decided there was little point in trying to tackle the big peaks. So instead we took a walk from Ambleside which took us out of the town and steadily up a valley. At least this time we got some views! It was beautiful in Autumn and we reached a lovely river which we crossed to then eventually circle back to town.
A Poet's Inspiration
... planning for lunch. All the places in town were cafe's or bistro's, mostly serving finger food and pastries. Walking the entire town took less than 20 minutes, but amazed me with every corner. Shops selling home-made goods were in-between the cafe's, gardens were in-between them, and cobblestone pathways along the way led to nature trails. We reached the main road and followed it for a while, coming upon a red telephone booth with the most amazing ...

text: The Morehouse College Intellectual Property Policy clearly defines the ownership rights in copyrightable works of authorship and patentable inventions that are created by employees (whether faculty or staff) and students of the College. The policy specifies the conditions under which the College claims ownership of intellectual property and when ownership vests in the creator of the work or in others, as in the case of government sponsored or privately-funded research. In addition, it expressly addresses the rights of students, whether acting as a student or employee of the institution, and staff, when performing administrative functions.The Intellectual Property (IP) Policy sets forth the responsibilities of the institution and employee with regard to the intellectual property rights owned by the institution, including the inventor's rights, and institutional obligations to distribute the revenues derived from the commercialization and licensing of that intellectual property. As noted in Section 220.127.116.11 of the policy, "the creation, disclosure, protection, marketing and development of intellectual property owned by the College is a cooperative effort that involves close coordination among schools and departments, inventors and the technology transfer program. The policy for distributing proceeds from licensing revenues seeks to provide an appropriate balance of funding and incentives for all those participants." (see page 8 of the IP Policy) The policy is administered by the provost and senior vice president of Academic Affairs or his designee, to ensure that it stays abreast of changing technologies.

What is the Most Influential History Journal?tags: journals, Google Scholar, h-index
David Austin Walsh is the editor of the History News Network. Follow him on Twitter @davidastinwalsh.
What is the most influential historical journal published in English? The answer, according to Google Scholar, is the Journal of Economic History.
Google Scholar, Google's specialized search engine for scholarly literature, uses the h-index to measure the impact of scholarly articles. Created by University of California, San Diego physicist Jorge E. Hirsch in 2005, the h-index is one of several attempts to quantify the productivity and quality of scholars. The index is a relatively simple measurement, using only the most highly-cited articles in its formulation.
Though designed to rank the contributions of individual scientists, the h-index can also be applied to researchers and publications, and according to Professor Hirsch the index will also give reasonably accurate rankings for arts and humanities journals, though it will be less reliable for individual researchers given the book-driven nature of the discipline.
Though the top two history journals are both economics-focused (and the Journal of Economic History is noted for its cliometric approach), Hirsch says that the h-index does not favor quantitative over non-quantitative research.
Paul W. Rhode, one of the editors of the Journal of Economic History, was unsurprised by the high ranking, though he cautioned against reading too much into it. "We're not a psychology journal, publishing lots of small articles that cite each other," he said. "We're a high-quality journal that publishes serious stuff that gets attention over the long run. That's what we do."

Reporters don't help by dwelling on issues low on procurement experts' list of concerns
I have spent a good deal of my life thinking about how government can most effectively buy goods and services that support important public purposes.
When judging federal contracting during post-Hurricane Katrina relief efforts, the first three questions that come to my mind are:
To what extent is the government using prenegotiated contracts to meet emergency needs?
During an emergency, the government must have immediate access to goods and services. But it should also maintain competition to find the best prices and vendors.
Agencies must balance the need for speed vs. competition's benefits.
Agencies should negotiate contracts in advance, just like the government should have prepared to send supplies to the Gulf Coast before the hurricane hit. If agencies know they will need disaster-related services, such as debris cleanup and construction, they should award contracts that activate when disaster strikes. They should set prices and establish delivery terms with the best vendors. Then agencies only need to place orders when the time comes.
To what extent is the government using innovative contract structures that reward rapid and high-quality performance?
After the 1994 Los Angeles earthquake destroyed portions of the Santa Monica Freeway, career civil servants came up with a great idea: They asked freeway reconstruction contractors to include a price and target completion date in their bids.
The contracting officials created a schedule of rewards and penalties for exceeding or failing to meet goals. They considered three factors -- cost, speed and rewards -- when comparing the bids. The winning firm worked around the clock, promised to share half of all rewards with employees and finished the job in a fraction of the time that engineers had originally estimated.
To what extent is the government using online reverse auctions to buy items not covered by contracts negotiated in advance?
Negotiating contracts in advance won't answer some unanticipated needs. But online auction technology can help avoid no-bid contracting during emergencies.
In many cases, for products and simple services, agencies can set up online reverse auctions in which vendors bid against one another in real time. They can leave an auction open for 24 hours or as few as 12 and get significant competition and world-class prices. (In the interest of full disclosure, I am a member of the board of advisors of FedBid, one of the companies that offer such services.)
I don't know how well the government's post-Katrina contracting efforts correspond to my wish list of good practices.
The reason I don't know is that despite the media's coverage about Katrina contracting issues, no one has covered those questions or similar ones, which would be the first questions a contracting expert would ask.
If the media covered themselves the way they are covering Katrina contracting, newsrooms would be filled with reporters who never tell lies or reveal sources but also never bother to learn how to uncover a good story or write it well. n

What a Sweetheart Pat Sloan Is!!!
I went to the APQ site for the Monday radio broadcast to listen to this past Monday's show and couldn't find it on the playlist. So I emailed Pat Sloan about it and she actually read it and replied!!! Wow. (They didn't do one for the Holiday.) Anyways, as the English people say, I was gobsmacked. Today the guys are here to replace the air conditioner. Since I'm stuck here I dragged out the quilt top I finished and am working on tying it. Don't enjoy working on fabric in the heat and humidity but also can't stand staring at the tube all day and it's too hot to do housework or yard-work.
Rita, I'm glad you're getting the new a/c today! Our repair guy made it yesterday afternoon. Fortunately it was a quick and inexpensive repair (this time). The unit is 10 yrs old and he said the life expectancy is 10-12 years, so I guess we'd better start saving our pennies!
I hear ya about doing stuff in the heat & humidity. I tried quilting on Monday but had so many problems I gave up. Mostly just sat around playing games on the I pad.
LOL!!! We didn't hear from our guy after he said he had to order the part - after 3 messages to him we caught up to him this AM and he said the home owners insurance company refused to order the part.
After Dh was on the phone for over two hours, the home owners told us the guy frequently gets orders confused and he asked for 8 pounds of freon - no part - and it will be taken care of this afternoon. Heaven only knows what he will do today lol!!! I don't have the patience DH does - I would be having a fit - so I let him deal with them.
Now my BIG question is - why did not either one of them call us!!! Glad yours is getting under control!
I have Pat's 'Nickel' quilts and I love them!! Thank goodness SOMEONE in todays worls still knows the value of customer satisfaction!!
