Is There An ADHD Epidemic in Major League Baseball?
Professional athletes will look for any edge, they said, and only those who truly require ADHD medication in order to properly function should be permitted to take it. Moreover, Dr. Hallowell added, Ritalin, Adderall and similar drugs do not produce a super-focusing effect for people without ADHD. Those drugs work by altering the brain's chemistry. According to Dr. Hallowell, if a ballplayer's brain chemistry doesn't "need" altering, then he's more likely to experience the unpleasant side effects of the drugs—like elevated heart rate, elevated blood pressure, insomnia and weight loss—and none of the benefits.
In the end, Dr. Tuckman noted, "when ADHD is appropriately diagnosed and the medication is appropriately prescribed and taken, it doesn't give someone with ADHD an edge any more than giving contact lenses to someone who is far-sighted."
The NFLPA has quite a bit on its plate at the moment; but once they get past the Saints bounty scandal, we hope they'll turn some of their attention to the Ginger Hammer's inconsistently levied and often heavyhanded penalties for ADHD medication use.
Happy Friday, Broncos fans! Another sad story has emerged regarding the health of a former NFL player, although it's not the typical tale of a longtime player suffering in his 50s or 60s. This time, it's a 27-year-old whom Tampa Bay drafted in the second round of the 2007 Draft. Arron Sears left the Bucs in 2009 under worrisome circumstances, as the Tampa Bay Times reported at the time:
When the Tampa Bay Buccaneers held offseason workouts in mid March, guard Arron Sears was there. But he wasn't the person teammates and coaches remembered. He was distant, even for someone with his shy demeanor. Sears participated for several weeks, until shortly after the team's minicamp in April, when he simply stopped communicating. He was unresponsive when asked questions. At times, he resorted to replying in writing.
Unfortunately, things haven't gotten better for Sears, on whose behalf his parents filed a suit claiming the NFL, helmet maker Riddell, the Bucs, and other teams were negligent and withheld information on concussions and their effects. A portion of the suit reads:
Sears has almost total loss of function, is unable to care for himself and cannot take (care) of his day-to-day activities. Further, Arron Sears has extreme displays of temper and anger with the appurtenant risk of causing harm to himself and others.
According to the TBT, Sears has been taken into protective custody by the police on several occasions in the past two years, and the lawsuit, which has two other ex-Bucs as plaintiffs, says Arron is now under the guardianship of his parents. Let's hope things take a positive turn for Sears and his family, as unlikely as that may seem.

Flash-forward: 2009 AFC West draft review
Denver collected a lot of high draft picks, but they did a poor job when it came time to turn those cards in for players…It was a lot of effort for not a lot of value.
Denver has one starter on defense, a running back that could contribute something if healthy, and a depth player at safety…In the 2009 NFL Draft, apparently getting anyone to fill a roster spot is a noteworthy accomplishment. This was not a good draft by any means.
The Broncos' performance in the 2009 Draft (the first by Josh McDaniels) was immediately panned by football analysts far and wide, and it didn't take long for Alphonso Smith to become a favorite target of the McDoofus Sux crowd. Over time, it has grown impossible for even this McDaniels apologist to suggest Denver fared well four Aprils ago. But the overarching theme to Scott Kacsmar's thorough examination of the 2009 Draft is that a lot of teams flopped.
To that end, Knowshon Moreno, who hasn't lived up to even his critics' expectations, actually has a higher CarAV (15) than twelve other first-rounders; Robert Ayers is right behind him at 14. Surprisingly, among the AFCW teams, Denver's picks have played in the most NFL games and amassed the highest CarAV.
For Demaryius Thomas, the Arrival of Peyton Manning Means it's Time to Run Routes Again
On having to run more routes with Manning at quarterback:
"You're gonna have to run the whole route tree now. The comebacks, the slants, the posts, the ins. And I didn't have to do that much when I was my first couple of years in the league."
For those who don't remember what it looks like:
In a move sure to help Broncos fans miss fewer great endings and Denver kickoffs, the NFL announced it will push back all 4:15pm ET kickoffs to 4:25pm ET.
According to the league's research, over the past three seasons, doubleheaders forced TV networks to switch away from 66 games that were still ongoing. The NFL says this 10-minute shift would have prevented 51 of those Heidi-style preemptions.
Although this was likely not a problem for Broncos fans in the Mountain West viewing area, those of us who live elsewhere have all experienced the agony of waiting for some Jaguars/Titans snoozer to conclude while we miss Denver's opening possession or two. Sometimes, of course, this serves to save us from even worse pain, ala the 59-14 drubbing by the Raiders in 2010, when many of us were spared Oakland's first two scores.

Good Morning, Broncos fans! This will thankfully be taking place past my own bedtime, but for those of you who will stay up to watch the second half of the Week 1 MNF doubleheader, you'll be stuck listening to Chris Berman and Trent Dilfer calling the Chargers/Raiders game for the Worldwide Leader. If anyone out there doesn't know why this is one of the worst events in the history of the world, here's a thoughtful melange of reaction from around the web to help clarify things:
Drew Magary: Berman truly believes he's an NFL institution, and that means you're going to spend the whole evening being reminded of it. He's gonna make it painfully aware to you that he's doing a game for the very first time, at long last. He's gonna say THEHHHHHH RAYDEEZZZZZZ 900 times.
KSK: Naturally, we can expect large quantities of CARSON "DON'T CALL ME ROBERT" PALMER DROPS BACK AND ZZZZZIIIPPPP PICKED OFF BY ERIC "WEDDLE WE GO NOW" AND WHOOOOOOOP AND WHOOOOOOPP AND HE. MAY. GO. ALL. THE. WAY. THEYRENOTGONNAGETHIM until our brains extrude through our ears. And with Dilfer's self-serious act as the chaser, the mute button shall be our only recourse.

John Elway turns 52 today. Happy Birthday, John - and Thank You.
Quoth the draftniks, Evermore: You will always draft the largest man on the board. It will lead to riches and wins.
Draftniks sometimes lie.
There's Edgar Allen Poe, and then there's Dontari Poe - one could write brilliantly, the other is simply huge. At 6-3 and 346 pounds, Kansas City's future at nose guard may be tied to Poe's ability to play the two-gap nose position. Poe is without question a huge man with surprising athletic talent. The question that's going to have to be answered is whether he fits the slot for which he's been chosen.
Dontari Poe looks every inch and every pound the 'monster in the middle' kind of nose guard that odd-front teams all over the NFL are looking for. Head coach Romeo Crennel is drooling over his chances of turning around the team's fortunes. There was a lot more than Poe to KC's draft, but despite all the clamoring about him and his potential, there's something that people aren't talking about.

Broncos May Renovate Stadium Thanks To Manning
Of the Broncos' 130 total suites, the team tries to lease 115 each season, leaving 15 to sell on a game-by-game basis. Last season, the Broncos left more than five additional suites unleased because they couldn't find anyone willing to buy the leases, which cost an average of $115,000 per season.
But the Broncos are so confident that they will be able to sell suite leases for the upcoming season that they are planning to convert two 32-person party suites, which are sold on a game-by game basis for $15,000, into six to eight mini suites, which they would lease on a seasonal basis for $60,000. The renovations would allow the team to generate an extra $276,000 of revenue per season from the same amount of square feet in their stadium, according to Ryan Barefoot, the Broncos' senior director of premium seating.
In related news, the team announced today that single-game tickets will go on sale July 23.
Good Morning, Broncos fans! Player safety and the bounty scandal/investigation/suspensions continue to be the main topic of NFL discussion.
Starting with the Saints, Drew Brees says his team's coaches have not spoken out much against the bounty sanctions because they fear further punishment from the league. Brees is also working to promote concussion testing for youth athletes and is confident he'll have a new contract in the coming weeks.
New Orleans teammate Remi Ayodele said through his agent he "doesn't recall hearing" the "give me my money" statement during the 2009 NFC title game, for what that's worth.
As for player safety, Mike Freeman hears there was no mention of CTE at the rookie symposium, while Alex Marvez details the theory that strengthening the neck muscles of football players would aid in concussion prevention. Over at PFW, Kevin Fishbain kicks off a series about the technology of helmets by stressing that they can only really function to protect the skull, not to stave off concussions.

It has been confirmed that the Sensation has two different LCD panels. One made by Acer (AUO) and one made by sharp. The sensation does not have a good screen bad screen issue. Some people prefer the acer screen and others prefer the sharp. I have had both and they both are really beautiful displays. You can only really tell the difference if they are side by side.
To find out which panel you have:
Use terminal emulator (free from the market) and run the command dmesg (root is not needed obviously)
it will output a bunch of stuff.. look for this line and report it: (if you can't find it you can long press on the output in terminal emulator copy all and then paste it into an email and send it to yourself)
just look for the line (the numbers might not be the same) [ 9178.895111] Panel Type = PANEL_ID_PYD_??????
Mine is sharp so my line is Panel Type = PANEL_ID_PYD_SHARP
If you have searched and can't find reboot and try again.
Pics I took of the two side by side:

The April Jobs Report & Does Spirit Airlines Lack A Patriotic Spirit?
The 76-year-old Vietnam veteran and former Marine Jerry Meekins appearing on FOX & FRIENDS earlier this week
The April Jobs Report
The latest jobs report is pretty pathetic. Aside from only 115,0000 jobs being created last month, more and more Americans are jumping ship and giving up on the job market all together! Who are these people? Are they retirees? Former workers who are deciding to be stay at home parents?
Then, a large portion of Americans getting out of the labor force are those who are signing up for disability! Is it too easy to qualify for this safety net? Leslie wonders if disability is the new unemployment!
No Patriotic Spirit?
The Spirit airlines CEO is telling an ill military vet to go take a flying leap. The company has been under pressure to give a 76-year-old Vietnam veteran and former Marine a $197 refund. Spirit CEO Ben Baldanza is saying tough luck. Is Spirit bungling this crisis? Will it hurt their business? Leslie compares it to past corporate P.R. disasters.
No More Curb Appeal?
According to a new report, home-ownership is at a 15 year low. Not only is it becoming harder to own a home, Leslie wonders if the idea of owning a home is losing its allure? And if that's the case, what does that mean for our economy and our culture?

It is understandable that many Brazilians may be offended by what they see as unwarranted intrusion by foreigners into their domestic affairs.
But why not try and look at this issue from a positive perspective? There are valuable opportunities here.
Indonesia and Brazil are currently the world's third and fourth highest greenhouse gas emitters, largely because of rainforest destruction.
However, both these countries have the potential to become world leaders in addressing the problems of climate change and environmental damage.
As stewards of the rainforests, these countries are standing on the threshold of an exciting new and beneficial "industry" - the rainforest preservation industry.
While ALL countries should be encouraged and recognised in some way for protecting their forests and preserving biodiversity, tropical rainforests are particularly precious carbon sinks.
Refer to this recent article for more information on rainforests as carbon sinks: "Confirmed – deforestation plays critical climate change role" http://www.csiro.au/news/GlobalCarbonProject-Deforestation.html
Rainforests are vital for the world, and so the world must pay for their preservation and management. (And for those who are global warming sceptics, it's not just about "emissions", we must also cherish these rainforests as valuable ecosystems and bastions of biodiversity).
Some people might argue "you can't just pay these countries for doing nothing, for just leaving their rainforests standing". But it's not "payment for nothing". It's payment for preserving and managing a vital resource which is beneficial for the world, and compensation for development opportunities foregone.
Of course, it won't necessarily be easy... There are many complex economic, social, conservation, forest management and governance issues to consider. But we need to address this issue NOW, before the rainforests are all gone.
I hope an alliance of world leaders from developing and developed countries will urgently cooperate on this. We need political will and leadership at the very highest level to make this work.
"We welcome good natured people who wants to help Brazil to keep its immense territory for the good of Brazilians and the rest of mankind."By denying Euro or American forestry management, Lula clearly does not.
Mr Spazsny, we do not mind if Europeans and Americans help us out to preserve the forest by financing Brazilian institutions and firms which may help preserve the forest.Even to associate with us preserving our soveringty is a good idea. But we do not like if you say OUR FOREST is the world´s because we and you take for granteed that your natural resources belong to you (and we never claimed to participate in your natural assets, be they in North America or Europe or Africa or Asia, for we were the colonised, not the colonisators/not the conquerors). We would not like to be pirated due to our preserved natural assets and immense biodiversity wealth in the 21st century because the developed countries destroyed theirs. We welcome good natured people who wants to help Brazil to keep its immense territory for the good of Brazilians and the rest of mankind.
Zakka, At the end of the 19th century, 30% of American forested land remained whilst 70% had been logged. After a century of re-growth, that figure is currently reversed. You seem not to understand the word 'stability', nor the gist of my post. You may call the Americans and Europeans "hypocritical" for seeking to advise Brazilians by using centuries of their own error as a tool for learning, or you can ignore them and continue to unsustainably cut down hundreds of square miles of irreplaceable forest for good in the name of Brazilian nationalism. Take your pick.
I come NOW to this forum to say that as many Brazilians, I do not agree with any kind of aggressive behaviour towards whoever comes to my country. We have no tradition of warfare and will be in the 21st century emerging economies leadearship by the use of pacific means in the UN and any other legal international institution to defend our territory and our interests. We have been peaceful and friendly towards our neighbours in South America and will possibly have their support in the defense of our common natural resources as our leadership sediments in the Continent. I hope justice will prevail over pirates´envies and our forest´s immense biodiversity will make us wealthier and economically powerful.
As a Brazilian I recommend: to limit the acccess of foreigners in the Amazon region. Limit especially English speaking " missionaires" , nuns ,priests ( also Italians !priests" ), crooks, thieves. bio piraytes . I recommend send back to their countries crooks from ONGs working paid by semi-occult foreigner's interests. We are prepared with respect to the Armed Forces for non-conventional ( Vietnan style) and non convencional warfare - we are more prepared than believed in Europe . I believe this Economist article demonstrates an arrogance we are fed up with . The military are fed up with this and so are 180 millions Brazilians . We should start throwing up anybody born in England, and forbid they enter the Amazon even as week end tourists. I suggestion to Europenas: take care of Africa. Take care of your sad backyard. You van buy our presidents cheap but not the people. Not the Armed Forces.
Our? Forget it!
An excerpt from Laurie Anderson's "The Dream Before" (Strange Angels, 1989):...She said: What is History?And he said: History is an angel being blown backwards into the futureHe said: History is a pile of debrisAnd the angel wants to go back and fix thingsTo repair the things that have been brokenBut there is a storm blowing from ParadiseAnd the storm keeps blowing the angel backwards into the futureAnd this storm, this storm is called Progress
As a rule of thumb, Americans, and Europeans for that matter, are generous people, with good intentions and who, more often than not, mean well.
I am pleased to see comments like those made by einstein1, and Ms. Elizabeth Hart.
Differently than the writer of the article posted by "The Economist", both of them seem to be genuinely and legitimately preoccupied with the environment and do not seem to have second or third intentions in their statements.
Regrettably, the article is biased, ambiguous and, why not to say it, dangerous. It spreads the type of truths which are seeded by the "sharks" and "hawks" I mentioned in a previous post.
The writer manipulates legitimate concerns in order to seed thoughts that can very well be used by those "sharks" and "hawks" to justify invasion of territory or produce excuses for their own sins.
The writer uses the resignation of former Minister Marina Silva to subreptiously imply Brazilians, and their president, are reckless, impotent, and incompetent with handling the environment and the forest and that "something" must be done. It blatantly checks the authority and legitimate sovereignity of Brazilians over the Amazon area that belongs to Brazil.
I respect Ms. da Silva, I admire her. She is a person who overcame incredible predictment. She became a world wide known icon in defense for the environment in general, and particularly for the Amazon region. She knows the Amazon region. That is where she was born, grew and has her political roots. She pulled herself from nothingness just like Abraham Lincoln did. Her life should be put in film.
No one in his right mind will question her intentions and her credentials.
However, her intentions and her credentials do not automatically transform her in a good administrator. Anyhow, her credentials and skills are not the question here.
What is being questioned is the use the writer of the article made of this fact to instill dangerous "truths".
It is in this sense that I fear that people who mean well, who are intrinsecally generous, who have legitimate concerns for legitimate problems may be manipulated to echo the "truths" seeded by the writer, repeating, reverberating and amplifying those "truths" to a point that makes public opinion cry for action.
When this point is reached, the birds of prey and the sharks can use this public opinion to accomplish their not so legitimate desires.
Now, on a different aspect of this matter, unless you have been close to the jungle in the Amazon area, it is difficult to really know what it represents in terms of technological challenge to make it somehow useful.
The Amazon jungle is definitely not like the reforested woods of Maine, Washington or the beautiful forests of North Carolina.
The forests of Norway, Sweden, Finland and Russia in no way resemble the Amazon forests.
It is inhospitable, it is swampy, it is hot, it is humid, it is virtually impenetrable, it is dark, it is pestered with disease.
The first American who thought he could tame the forest making a profit out of it was Henry Ford trying to cultivate rubber. It was a spectacular fiasco. And mind you, this was even without having environmental questioning on his neck...
The next fiasco was that of Daniel Keith Ludwig with his Jari project. Again, no environmental questioning on his neck... It was such a fiasco that the Brazilian government had to rescue him financially.
Offering the knowledge acquired by the loggers and foresters of Maine, Washington, North Carolina, Sweden, Norway, etc... in the process of handling those lovely and pleasant woods to help Brazilians manage the Amazon jungle reflects, please forgive me for saying it, profound ignorance and arrogance. The type of ignorance and arrogance of Henry Ford and Daniel K. Ludwig. They at least risked their money and had to pay in cash for their ignorance and their arrogance.
It is fair to state that the US has a dismal history of using its natural resources versus conservation. However, in terms of forests, while the old forests have been annihalated, it is estimated that there is more land that is forested today in the US than 100 years ago. Reforestation is making headway in the US and will continue to do so.
One thing to remember about Europe and the US---- over the past few centuries they have used their own natural resources to advance their economies versus purchasing resources from foreign lands. When the natural resources in these lands reached a level of depletion that threaten economic growth--- is when Euprope sought exploration for new lands of resources and sent explorers to find these lands and resources and use them--- including exploration and colonization of the US.
When the US had depleted its own resources to a level that threaten economic expansion, then of course, they in turn looked to foreign countries for resources. Many of the countries like Brazil will become the economic superpowers of the 21st century, as well Russia, as developed countries seek these needed resources.
Technology exists that will allow access to these natural resources in Brazil and similar countries, that will fuel their economic development, without falling into the same path of natural resource decimation that other countries, including the US did as they grew. If anything, Brazil and other countries have a right to manage their own lands as any other country ---- but that doesn't mean that these countries have to fall into the same path of decimation and destruction as a means to being economically wealthy. What can be the difference is intelligent growth practices that balance economic growth and use of natural resources within a country that protects the environment while allowing the people within developing countries the same right to economic growth as developed countries enjoy.
The US and Europe cannot "chant" danger-danger-danger" of the impending global warming while their histories show they were not wise in the practices as they grew. To do so will only cause those in developing countries like Brazil to be defensive. We should be looking at ways not just to "give money" to the governments like Brazil thinking that it will perserve the rain forests--- these monies will not--- what will be successful will be helping harvest natural resources in a manner that will be regenerating those resources for future harvest.
Finally, it is not the government of Brazil that is causing the destruction of the rain forest--- it seems the policies are geared toward moderation and conservation through technology- what the Brazilian government is having trouble doing is preventing individuals and foreign companies from going into these vast areas and being short-sighted. harvest the resources without concern for the future effects. Until we can prevent individuals from doing this--- foreign countries giving money to the government of Brazil will not stop the onslaught of destruction of these rain forests.
TO MR. Spazsny Umbrage Worthington McGee III:You mentioned the "stability of American and European forests". Could you please give the name of these stable Europeans forests and their current areas? By doing that, with pleasure I'll present the readers what were the original areas of these forests before the civilized Europeans devastated (the figures are widely known!). You will see that there are no lesson to be taught by American or Europeans. After centuries of human presence in Brazilian territory, the Amazon is over 80% preserved (in this case, preserved means untouched!). The preservation politics are being sucessful implemented at the expenses of Brazilian people (billions of dollars invested year after year with such purpose). There is too much things to do yet, but the if you compare with the past, the devastation today is considered residual. The key to solve all the Amazonian preservational problems is to give economic opportunity to the Amazonian people to survive there without devastating the forest to survive. Only the economic development of Brazil will allow the government to create such opportunities, which are in course in benefit of the Brazilian living in Amazon. We never had cooperation in economy in a constructive level, so I think the Brazilian president is right when she accuse the industrialized countries of hipocrisy when addressing their opinions on environmental issues.
I feel apalled by the talks about any kind of foreign intervention in the AMAZON FOREST, which belongs to the Brazilian territory for centuries, as well as the plains of the US Middlewest - and not so much a great area of California, Texas and New Mexico, which used to belong to the Mexicans and before that to some native tribes of North America. Some of the new Brazilian tribes are migrant 'indians' from other Latin American countries, such as the Yanomami, who came from Cantral America, since they are not originally native of the Brazilian territory. In this sense, I am more Brazilian than they are, because most of my European ancestors came to Brazil in the middle of the 19th century and some even before that, as 'New Christians', running away from the Inquisition...and the Yanomami came to Brazil by the end of that century and along the 20th century. Some new tribes are coming to Brazil now, in the 21st century, fleding the lodgers of their original territories in Peru, Venezuela, etc.Brazilian institutions still lack an unified policy towards the migrants indigenuous people who come to our territory as well as the use of the land to the benefit of the Brazilians who live in the forest region and in the rest of the country. ABIN is worried with the lack of a proper policy towards our territory and some Brazilian high rank military have already opened their ideas to the present government and population...but Brazilians are used not to worry with our natural assets because we have never been menaced in the past and have always had a peaceful and mostly diplomatic relation with our neighbours in South America. The rest of the world has NO rights over our forest and our people as well as we have no rights over Alaska´s territory and the decisions which were taken in the past and present to 'civilize' the Inouit population.I hope that if the world wants to help us to preserve the forest for its own good it pays for the benefits our forest areas provide.
Further to my earlier post (June 06, 2008 06:26).
We've had years of talking and symbolic gestures about the problem of deforestation and little effective action. I'm concerned there'll be more talking over the next four years til 2012 and in the meantime forests will continue to be destroyed at an alarming rate. (And at the moment there's little reason to be optimistic the new climate change agreement will be any more effective than the current Kyoto Protocol).
At least world leaders are finally acknowledging the problem of deforestation.
For example, in March 2007, Australia's former prime minister, John Howard, announced the $A200 million Global Initiative on Forests and Climate. Australia's new prime minister, Kevin Rudd, is maintaining this initiative, now called the International Forest Carbon Initiative.
In October 2007, Britain's Prince Charles launched The Prince's Rainforest Project. Prince Charles stated: "The central issue in this whole debate is how we put a true value on standing rainforests to the world community - we simply have to find ways of putting a price on them which makes them more valuable alive than dead." In a recent article in The Telegraph, Prince Charles said we need to halt deforestation: "If this were to cost, say, $30 billion, it would represent just under one per cent of the approximately $3,500 billion spent on insurance premiums every year - insurance that often ends up paying for the damage caused by climate change." http://www.telegraph.co.uk/opinion/main.jhtml?xml=/opinion/2008/06/05/do...
During the UN climate change meeting in Bali last December, Norway's Prime Minister, Jens Stoltenberg, announced that his country was prepared to increase its support to prevent deforestation in developing countries to more than US$500 million a year. Mr Stoltenberg urged other countries to join his country in these efforts.
Norway's Minister of the Environment and International Development, Erik Solheim, said that "an initiative in this area in the next few years can bring about substantial cuts in greenhouse gas emissions while the world is seeking to put in place a new, more comprehensive agreement on climate change."
In late December 2007, Prince Charles offered to join with Norway to discuss ways to cooperate in projects to save forests around the world. Mr Stoltenberg said Norway was willing to work with all who want to put systems and regulations in place to halt deforestation.
In his speech to the Gleneagles Dialogue in Japan in March this year, Britain's former prime minister, Tony Blair, noted that tackling the problem of deforestation was "a special category for action".
At the recent Biodiversity Summit in Bonn, German Chancellor Angela Merkel promised that Germany would provide 500 million euros through 2013 to protect forests, and 500 million euros a year after that. Given that deforestation contributes 20 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions, more than transport and travel combined, Merkel said, "We are convinced that this is a very good investment."
And recently Brazil and Norway were negotiating a donation of up to US$200 million this year, plus additional funding over the next five years, to a newly-created environment fund for the Amazon region. According to the Xinhua News Agency, the Amazon fund, initiated by the newly-appointed Environment Minister Carlos Minc, was to be formally launched on June 5. When announcing the creation of the fund, Minister Minc said everyone cries when a tree is felled in the Amazon region, but the 25 million Amazon inhabitants need sustainable sources of income to survive.
It would be fantastic if other world leaders would join in and establish a focused alliance to cooperate and develop an urgent strategic plan to address global deforestation, particularly during the critical period 2008 – 2012, whilst forests remain unprotected by the Kyoto Protocol.
This international alliance should also consider the economic drivers of deforestation, in particular the complex problems which arise from over-consumption in the developed world and the growing population in the developing world.
Details of the post-2012 global climate change agreement are due to be finalised at Copenhagen in 2009. It would be an excellent demonstration of political will and leadership if an alliance of world leaders could table a progress report on their efforts to reduce global deforestation at the Copenhagen meeting.
Hopefully this issue will be high on the agenda of the upcoming G8 and Major Economies meetings in Japan in July.
The most important technique for teaching and, as a corolary, for learning is example.
If the above is true, the unfathomable knowledge and contribution that America and Europe can offer to Brazil as far as forest handling amounts to... amounts to.... amounts to..., well, SHAME.
The northern hemisphere has already given an enormous contribution to Brazilians as far as teaching Brazilians how NOT to handle their forests.
Considering their example, the best thing Americans and Europeans, at this point in time, could do in order to help would be to silently retreat to shamefulness for what they have done and still do to the world, concomittantly repeating, as if it were a "mantra", their "mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa".
A forest in a temperate climate is one thing; Europe and the USA may have learned something about how not exterminate the little has been left. Even so, that little left is reforestation with single species planted for the sole purpose of economic exploitation.
Something completely different is an inhospitable rain forest.
The great experience Americans have had with rainforests was the marvelous work they did in Vietnam with the "orange" agent and napalm.
Please don't patronize Brazilians; we may be stupid but not that much.
All throughout history there are those who seed thoughts and those who repeat words, like parrots, withouth really knowing what trully was the seeder's original intention in seeding those thoughts.
They are the lambs, the useful innocents who are used by the sharks and hawks to prey.
Throughout history sharks, and now 'hawks", have seeded thoughts like:
a) the jews have killed Christ; the average Joe Doe repeats "the jews have killed Christ". The "hawks" say: let's go after the jews.
b) the christians have set fire to Rome; the average Joe Doe repeats "the christians have set fire to Rome". The hawks say, "let's slaughter the christians".
c) the sun circles the earth; Galileo says differently, the hawks say "Let's burn Galileo".
d) the universe is finite; Giordano Bruno says it is infinite, burn Giordano Bruno.
e) the natives need God; let's civilize them, so let's send them our knowledgeable priests, pastors and NGOs;
f) the jews are mean; the average Joe Doe's wisely repeats " yes the jews are mean". The hawks come and say "Yeah,let's gas them down in Auschwitz, Birkenau, etc..."
g) Iraqis have mass destruction weapons (who said this?); let's invade Iraq and offer them "democracy" in a gold plate. Iraqis will love us for this.
h) Brazilians are burning down "our", ("our"???????????) rainforest; the Joe Does (why not say environmentalists, like a bunch of sheep, repeat "Yeah, stupid Brazilians are burning down "our" forest". The hawks say "Yeah, let's invade Brazil and control the Amazon since those stupid Brazilians reject our unfathomable knowledge and are not willing to learn our fabulous tested expertise in maintenance of rainforests...
Meanwhile the stupid Brazilians are sweating their shirts and bleeding their meagre pockets in order to save the forest, not because some hipocrit says to, but because the last thing to do is to repeat the errors of the hipocrits.
Rage against hipocrisy is not sinonym to wanting to turn the forest into wasteland.
Bellatrix Brazil has referred to the old model, the one we, brazilians, have used to ruin Mata Atl�ntica. There is a proposal of the Brazilian Academy of Sciences for a new model of development, it is posted on www.abc.org.br.
Amaz�nia has always been a conundrum. When we were under the military boots, they too tried to solve this but their solution created the problems we now face. At least now, we are free to discuss the Amazon question and find a solution. A solution we dont't have to obey but one the organized society contributed to, even the army.
Lula declaring Brazil both off limits to outside help and outside knowledge in forest management reminds me of my favorite Douglas Adams quote:"Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so."Rather than learn from previous centuries of American and European forest mis-management, Lula has chosen to ignore all advice despite the current stability of American and European forests in the name of petty nationalist pride and self-determination in direct contrast to doing what is both right for the world and right for Brazilians.
This week some North American and European countries met (almost secretly) in order to establish rules to share the Arctic Ocean regions for oil and mineral exploration. Among the very exclusive club of grabbers, there are some very outstanding preservationist countries, like: Norway, Canada, USA and Denmark. Yes, they are sharing among themselves a region which was always considered a global sanctuary for environmental preservation. I would like to suggest the environmentally concerned The Economist to drive its attention to such embarrassing issues in its close European neighbourhoods instead of trying to divert its reader's attention with Brazilian domestic affairs. I do recommend the commentators here to visit Der Spiegel website (German or English) following the links below:
I really don't see how it's in Brazil's best interests to turn its forests into wasteland. Environmentalism is viewed as nature versus the economy by too many people even though destruction of the environment leads to a lower quality of life and standard of living in the long term.
As an afterthought: could this sanctified cruzade against the Brazilians and THEIR forest (yes the forest is Brazilian) have anything to do with the incredible ability Brazilians have of producing food at a cost which Americans and Europeans cannot match, INSPITE OF THE BILLIONS OF DOLLARS OR EUROS IN SUBSIDIES to their farmers? And please, don't tell me that this is thanks to slave work.
Those who preach such nonsense either
1. haven't got the slightest idea of what they are talking about; or
2. have second and third intentions behind their words.
A few weeks ago I flew over Spain, France and northern Italy. It is true I was flying at 36,000 feet, but not even with a telescope I would be able to see a forest, a wood, a tree or a single bush to testify that any forest may have ever existed in those areas. In fact, seeing from the above, it resembled a face which had been recently shaved, so void of vegetation it was.
My wife also observed that very few birds exist in Europe, at least in the places we visited.
Those who today point their fingers and throw stones at us, pharisaically yelling that Brazil is destroying "our" forest, have totally devastated their own, in order to foster their economic development.
After all, who is behind "our" in "our" forest? Is this "our" of the Brazilians, is it "our" of the natives, or is it "our" of the masters from the G7?
What real reasons lie behind that preoccupation for "our" forest?
The same type of sanctified preoccupation for the "mass destruction weapons" in Iraq?
Those who yell at the conservation of the rain forests, carelessly hop onto their SUVs to drive to the next block in their neighborhood.
Flying over an European or American city by night is an awesome and beautiful sight: there is such an incredible amount of light being recklessly thrown away, as if it did not cost anything in terms of burnt oil or nuclear waste.
Tell Europeans and Americans to stop driving their cars.. tell them to stop lighting their cities and homes in such as wasteful way... tell them to stop squandering so must gas and oil to heat their homes in winter... tell Americans and Europeans to stop producing radioactive waste... Tell Americans and Europeans to stop chasing "mass destruction weapons" as an excuse to foster their greed for natural resources....
Tell Americans and Europeans to stop producing such a colossal amount of garbage (yes garbage, remember Napoli?), tell them to stop poisoning the air with burnt fossil fuel, etc... etc... etc...
On a completely different perspective, the "green" forests can be fully restored in say a couple of centuries...
What about the black, liquid, fossilized "forests" lying deep in the bosom of the earth?
After all, isn't oil the result of billions of years worth of forests?
These buried forests probably won't recover not even in billions of years.
What about "those" forests? What is morally worse? What is more poisonous? What is more life threatening?
In the 500 years of Brazilian history, there was only one pitiful episode involving a war and most reasonably enlightned Brazilians regret and are sorry for it as if it was waged agains their own family.
Can the enlightened and civilized Americans and Europeans say the same?

"We used this to announce our daughters arrival. The product came really quickly with standard shipping and the quality was great! We just sent them out so no feedback yet but I was impressed with the product. The only thing I had a little trouble with is saving the design when I was putting her info in. I would definitely order from here again!"
"I personalized the cards to look very similar to the one pictured and they came out beautifully. The quality is great and they were adorable... heard from so many family and friends that they loved them. I couldn't choose just one picture, so I love the option of adding photos to the back, which I did!"
"this birth announcement is very beautifully put together and classy. Everybody who I sent one to raved about how it's the most beautiful announcement they've ever seen."
"I love that I am able to fully see the product before purchase. What you design is what you get. It is nice to be able to save the project and go back into it later to make any changes. Every time I order from Tiny Prints I am always happy. They have beautiful products!"
"Could not have been happier with this announcement! I loved that scalloped edges were offered to help jazz up the look of the card. Shipped super fast - was projected to arrive Monday or Tuesday of the next week, but received it the Wednesday before. Will definitely use Tiny Prints for future card needs!"

Ventless Stackable washer/dryer?
It appears that there are only a few makers of stackable washer dryers with ventless dryers - Bosch and LG? I've read some reviews about the Bosch, which most people seem to like, but what about the LG? Anyone have any experience with the LG?
Thanks, cyberspacer. I hadn't heard about the Miele. But I love the Miele vaccuum cleaner we have, which I feel is made better than any other appliance we own. So I will certainly look into the Miele washer and ventless dryers. Appreciate your feedback.
I recently purchased a 3.6 CF washer dryer combo from LG. It is ventless and works really well. Before I got it I had a Whirlpool Duet, it was perfect for what I needed at the time, mainly because of it's size. The LG is much larger, it runs quietly, and can handle a pretty fair amount of laundry at one time.
Here is a link that might be useful: Best Stackable Washer Dryer
I think GE has one too.
Spanish manufactuer Fagor sells a ventless dryer and a decent-capacity 240v washer.
If the LG 24" combination washer/dryer can have an LG ventless dryer stacked on it, that would be a convenient setup - you can have the washer do the whole job when you have smaller laundry loads, and need to use the separate dryer only when you have lots of clothes and not much time.
Otherwise, I'd go with Bosch for its good capacity and fast water heating thanks to its 240 volt power supply (the washer plugs into an outlet on the dryer, and the dryer plugs into the 240V wall outlet and powers both machines). Asko worth a look too. Miele is best quality but expensive and the washer is 120v so it will be slower.

Robert Esmie (born July 5, 1972) was a Canadian sprinter and member of the 1996 Summer Olympics Gold medal 4x100 m relay.
Born in Jamaica and raised in Sudbury, Ontario, Esmie, Glenroy Gilbert, Bruny Surin and Donovan Bailey were the nucleus of a formidable 4x100 m relay team in the mid-1990s.
Esmie placed seventh (10.23) in the second semi-final of the 100m and won a bronze medal in 4x100 m relay at the 1993 World Championships. At the 1994 Commonwealth Games, Esmie was a member of the gold medal team in the 4x100 m relay.
Esmie won a bronze medal in the 60 m at the 1995 World Indoor Championships and was again a member of gold medal winning Canadian 4x100 m relay team at the 1995 World Championships.
At the Atlanta Olympics the Canadian men's 4x100 relay team was not favored despite winning most high profile titles in the previous three years, including the 1995 World Championships. Leading up the Olympics, the United States team of Jon Drummond, Tim Harden, Michael Marsh and Dennis Mitchell claimed they would beat Canada, however in 4x100 relay final the Canadian team beat the United States by almost half a second to win the gold in national record time. Esmie was not originally slated to run with the relay team, but replaced Carlton Chambers the night before the race after Chambers suffered a groin injury in the 200m.
Esmie's gold medal was later stolen.[1]
Esmie and the Canadian team won a gold medal again at the 1997 World Championships.
In 2008 he was inducted into Canada's Sports Hall of Fame as part of the 1996 Summer Olympics 4x100 relay team.[2]

the best
its a great product.
By Anonymous on HP - Mar 10, 2013
The original replacement battery for my laptop was discontinued and therefore, I got the upgraded version of the 9 cell Li. Rather expensive, but worth the cost and extended battery life.
By TobaccoDan on HP - Jan 18, 2013
battery life
the fully charged battery lasts less than 2 hours a little disappointing due to the cost
By vs55 on HP - Aug 3, 2012
6 hours on power saver!!!!
everybody says that the battery is awful because it only last for 30 min to 1 hr. it does that because you cant have the screen brightness jacked up all the way your brightness has to be on a lower setting like on power saver mode then it will last about 6 hours.
By falconhunter on HP - Jun 13, 2012
HP 6-cell primary battery is substandard
Poor functioning capabilities. This battery did not last at long as I was told. I was told the battery had a 5hr life. The battery lasted for only an hour and a half, when running on battery power only.
