How to fit and repair taps
New basin taps are a great way to upgrade your bathroom. Look out for versions with an eco click mechanism, as they'll help you and your family control how much water you use. If one of your taps is dripping, try to fix it promptly - otherwise it'll stain your bath or sink and cause erosion inside the mechanism of the tap.
Practical planning - Bathrooms
Whilst planning your bathroom it can be easy to forget those little practical details. Think about the kind of look you want to achieve but also the space you are buying it for; a family bathroom will have different needs to a downstairs cloakroom.

Get Regular Exercise for Mental Health
Skip to the navigationTopic Overview
Exercise is about more than keeping in shape. It also can help with your emotional and mental health. Exercise can help you improve your self-esteem, keep your mind off problems, and give you a sense of control. In general, people who are fit have less anxiety, depression, and stress than people who are not active.1
Research suggests that exercise can help specific mental health problems. Exercise may help prevent depression from coming back (relapse) and improve symptoms of mild depression.2, 3
Be safe while you exercise
Moderate exercise is safe for most people, but it's a good idea to talk with your doctor before increasing your activity. Anyone age 65 or older should talk with a doctor before exercise.
- Start slowly, and gradually increase how much you exercise.
- Stop exercising if you have severe pain, especially chest pain, or severe problems breathing. Talk with your doctor about these symptoms.
- People who are likely to have high anxiety or panic may have an episode during exercise because of the buildup of certain body chemicals (such as lactic acid) from exercise. If you have any problems during exercise, talk with your doctor.
Tips for being active
It can be hard to be active when you feel depressed or anxious or have a mental health problem. But activity can help you feel better, so do your best to find a way to be active. It's fine to start with small steps. You can build up from a few minutes a day.
- Don't overdo it. Start with simple exercises, such as walking, bicycling, swimming, or jogging.
- Warm up your muscles for about 5 minutes before you start exercising. To do this, you can walk, slowly move your arms and legs, or do simple muscle stretches.
- Use the talk-sing test to see whether you're exercising at the
right pace.
- If you can talk during exercise, you're doing fine.
- If you can sing during exercise, you can exercise a little faster or harder.
- If you are not able to talk, you're probably exercising too hard. Slow down a bit.
- Cool down for 5 to 10 minutes after you exercise. It's okay to do some stretching exercises during cooldown.
- Drink water before, during, and after exercise.
- Get regular exercise but not within 3 or 4 hours of your bedtime. This might make it hard to fall asleep.
- You can make daily activities part of your exercise
program. You can:
- Walk to work or to do errands.
- Push a lawn mower, rake leaves, or shovel snow.
- Vacuum or sweep.
- Play actively with your children, or walk the dog.
Do your best to slowly work up to moderate activity for at least 2½ hours a week. Moderate activity means things like brisk walking, brisk cycling, or shooting baskets. But any activities—including daily chores—that raise your heart rate can be included. Find a pace that is comfortable. You can be active in blocks of 10 minutes or more throughout your day and week.
If you have problems exercising on your own, ask someone to exercise with you or join an exercise group or health club.

Welcome to Kaleidoscope's #23 (Winter 2015). Following the recent, successful redesign by Bureau Mirko Borsche, we are back with a brand new issue. The new formula is taking shape, new columnists and contributors are joining our ranks, and a lot of enthusiastic research went into curating the most compelling content out there.
In the opening section of HIGHLIGHTS, twelve profiles account for the best of the season: JASON MATTHEW LEE (by Alexander Shulan), DANIEL BAUMANN (by Aoife Rosenmeyer), Marilyn Minter (by Gianni Jetzer), MAGALI REUS (by Ruba Katrib), KNOW WAVE RADIO (by Alexandre Stipanovich), BEATRICE GIBSON (by George Vasey), CATHERINE AHEARN (by Tobias Czudej), K-HOLE (by Kevin McGarry), JAMIAN JULIANO-VILLANI (by Joshua Abelow), ALESSANDRO BAVA (by Francesco Garutti), ZHAO YAO (by Venus Lau), and IDEA BOOKS (by Xerxes Cook).
At a time when feminism resurges both in critical discourse and media headlines, while at the same time entering a list of words overdue to be banned, our signature MAIN THEME section is devoted to a reconsideration of female identities and role models. POST WOMAN is composed of a think tank, a think piece by Natasha Stagg and five interviews, including with Juliana Huxtable (by Andrew Durbin), Amalia Ulman (by Francesca Gavin), Judith Bernstein (by Hanne Mugaas), Massimiliano Gioni (by Pietro Rigolo), and Girls Like Us (by Felix Burrichter).
To folow, this issue's MONO section and cover story are dedicated to Norwegian artist IDA EKBLAD. Fueled by an outright marvel for this thing called art, her work is distinguished by an extreme degree of impatience and prolificness. Her shift and turns are the result of a feverish engagement with pure materiality, synthesized with popular culture and animated by alien transformations. This definitive monographic survey comprises an essay by Peter J. Amdam, an interview by Cory Arcangel and an original portrait by Sølve Sundsbø.
Later on, the VISIONS section invites the eye to an enthralling journey across almost 100 pages of visual contributions by artists, curators and image-makers, including: TOBIAS ZIELONY, "Jenny Jenny"; MR.; "Chicago": BARBARA CRANE and TONY LEWIS; DAVID DOUARD in Los Angeles; JONAS WOOD; "Alliantecnik," curated by Alessio Ascari; TIMUR SI-QIN, "Premier Machinic Funerary"; and GRAHAM LITTLE.
Lastly, the closing section of REGULARS features our insightful columns on the past, present and future of art and culture: PRODUCERS features Carson Chan's conversation with Ballistic Architecture Machine; in FUTURA 89+, Hans Ulrich Obrist and Simon Castets interview young artist Philipp Timischl; Andrey Bold questions TOKYO's art scene as part of the PANORAMA series; in PIONEERS Fredi Fischli and Niels Olsen talk to cult Swiss designers Trix and Robert Haussmann; and in the first installment of RENAISSANCE MAN, Jeffrey Deitch celebrates the art of choreographer KAROLE ARMITAGE.
On a final note, very exciting news: get your hands on Kaleidoscope's new sibling Asia edition, launched in January 2015 in partnership with Arthub Asia.

Is there really censorship in Russia?

Is there really censorship in Russia?
More than 2.5 million people have left Russia during the past decade, sparking fears of a new brain-drain.
A third of Russia's young professionals are thinking of leaving the country, according to the Russian market research company ROMIR.
There must be something wrong with Putin's Russia. What is it ?
Read BBC feaure story about two young Russians:
""I wish I could distance myself from what's going on in the country but it proved to be impossible for me" says one.
LOL. Not only that the US masters of the BROKE & SINKING west registered ZERO migration in 2012 (as much retards come in that many smart people left the US shithole), but also the US birth rates are nosediving due to the impoverished and destitute US population have no will to live.
For a contrast Russia have strong positive migration numbers and even had to trim the immigration flow. In 2009 20 MILLION immigrants entered Russia, and retarded Didomyk talks about measly 2.5 million emmigrants over 10 years. What a moron, heh, heh, heh :D
"Recession Left Baby Bust as U.S. Births Lowest Since 1920
By Frank Bass - Nov 29, 2012 9:01 PM GMT-0800
The U.S. birth rate fell to a record low last year, driven by a decline in the number of babies born to immigrant women, who have led the growth in the nation's population for at least two decades.
The country's birth rate fell 8 percent from 2007 to 2010, according to a Pew Research Center report. The rate dropped 6 percent for U.S.-born women and plummeted 14 percent for foreign-born females since 2007, the onset of the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression. The decline continued last year to the lowest point since records began in 1920."
We, European, are laughing at Russia. We always consider that this Russia was a dictatorship - a weak one, with a primitive ( that is new) ideology "-Russian Orthodxy" ( meaning that 25% of the citizens of Russian Citizens don't feel that they really belong too :-). We don't want this Russia to be part of ou Europe : they are slaves with an imperialist "twisted mindset". They are and will be for long our enemies. we always think that the best which could happens and that this Russia is becoming a Province of China - Chinese leaders could easily deal with this Russian slaves - they know how to do it - and 111 millions Ethnic Russians more in their population of 1,4 billion will be almost make no difference. And the very good news it is that this Russia since 20 years tries everyday harder to act like a good pupil of their master-to-be: being enable to create their democracy, like slaves, they need hard leaders who beat them, they need leader who is a foreigner , a non-Russian ( How a slave could obey a slave?Impossible in their mind). But one thing was missing in their lazy dictatorship: the control of the internet! Finally , after twenty years, they are starting to copy their Chinese masters - of course not with such efficiency - but they tare trying to be ready to be ruled by the Chinese.
Taking into account that the Economist Int. Unit(see their survey ) has placed Russia in 72nd spot, well below most Eur. countries, even below Vietnam or Algeria, it follows that all Russian expectant mothers should leave the country by Jan 2013 !
Putin must be unhappy !
Are you sure you are european?
72nd spot of WHAT?
The only one upset with the Russia copy of the US internet regulations regarding child pornography and paedofilia, are the western child molesters and paedofiliacs, heh, heh, heh :D
They are so retarded, it could be funny if not so pathetic. LOL :D
Internet censorship is just one of several censorship measures now in effect in Putin's Russia. Back in 2007 Russian authorities published a rather short list of 14 titles of books, periodicals and internet publications that were subject to a judicial order prohibiting their circulation by any methods (e.g. in print, digital, video, etc.)
It is striking how that initially modest list has been now expanded to cover not less than 1270 titles prohibited for publication and circulation on the territory of the Russian Federation. In most cases prohibitions are 'justified' by some court's decision but the real reasons remain inaccessible to the public at large. One could understand (but not always support) judicial decisions banning publications about some 'world conspiracy', or promoting nazism, but the present list has been expanded banning such topics as, for example, decades of independence struggle of the Caucasian nations (Chechnia, Dagestan, etc.), about war-time anti-Soviet resistance in Ukraine and the Baltics, and even some topics related to the 1932-33 Kremlin-inspired famine, known in Ukraine as Holodomor, that claimed some 5 million victims. Such publications are freely circulated in the West, but not in Putin's Russia.
I would highly recommend to THE ECONOMIST editors to have someone look into this aspect of Russian censorship in some detail and to make the findings available to the readers.
Didomyk, mass media along with you makes a tempest in a teapot. I went over some of the above sites you mentioned and found out them working fine. Like this one Lurkmore on Holodomor http://lurkmore.to/%D0%93%D0%BE%D0%BB%D0%BE%D0%B4%D0%BE%D0%BC%D0%BE%D1%80
And if you google it you'll find hundreds sites on the matter. I don't downplay the existing problem of the current government trying to ban everyone and everything. However, it is a sign of weakness of the ruling circles. It feels like they are waiting for their final demise but who's going to replace them that is the question...?
I expected you to comment on Russian (Stalin-style) Putin-initiated censorship but certainly NOT in a manner you have done. Can't you contribute something more objective regarding Kremlin's censorship policies and their effect on the Russian's own perception as a nation, rather then resorting to a silly and racist Lurkmore ? Circulation of trush of the Lurkmore kind does nothing to enhance Russia's image and certainly demonstrates again and again well known 'sewer' style of Russian arguments. This is sewer style propaganda, its a copy-cat of the old bolshevik denunciations of anyone and anything that failed to follow a 'party' line.
Your link simply offers one of thousands of such 'sewer' style propaganda examples, in rough translation from Russian it reads:
"Typical katsap (i.e.Russian) when discussing Famine is calmer then a typical salo (pork) eater (i.e. Ukrainian),it usually comes down to the (Russian) promise "we will also turn off the gas" as well as, translated into the mainstream topic, "give us Crimea,you bitches !"
Maybe you, as a Russian, can explain a totally perverted logic of justifying one of the worst human calamities, when millions died from Kremlin-devised and implemented mass famine, with the propaganda slogan "give us Crimea, you bitches !"
You could have made a contribution to the discussion by pointing out, for example, how does the present Kremlin's ban on selected publications or on Russian news sources compare with the Stalinist propaganda back in the 1930s, or for that matter with the early 1900s when Russian Tsar's Okhrana (Secret Police = now KGB) hunted everybody who dared to circulate even hand-written opinions, let alone printed circulars, sending 'guilty' suspects to cold Siberian labor camps.
Yes, kuzmich, you could have chosen to say something useful, but you have chosen to fall into the same old propaganda trap.
TE definitely have some interesting censorship-related matters to write about.
For example, language bans in some regions of Ukraine.
Yes, indeed TE should write about language realities in ALL regions of Ukraine and in all Russia. Then, maybe, just maybe, we would see fewer ignorant comments like yours.
Meanwhile, you could provide an up-dated list of ALL publications and media sources prohibited in Putin's Russia. Make sure to include all prohibited publications or digital media critical of Putin.
Come on, Dido -- DIY.
(And I was talking not about *language realities* -- but about *language prohibitions*. See the difference?)
"Is Putin going mad ? "
Read the European Voice:
Oh. Eddie. I see. )))
I agree with your great comment. One of the facts you mentioned is really chocking : "(...) some topics related to the 1932-33 Kremlin-inspired famine, known in Ukraine as Holodomor, that claimed some 5 million victims." It is true. It gives an idea of what they could do. What type of dictatorship they are becoming.
I take some example" on the list of the new forbidden sites in Russia - quoting some Russian specialists:
"The list is diverse. There are historical documents, like Benito Mussolini's memoirs and Joseph Goebbels' diaries; medieval Muslim theoretical tracts; scholarly research on the Holodomor, the mass famine in Ukraine in the 1930s; a library of Jehovah's Witnesses' publications; books published by the Chinese sect Falun Gong; a brochure called "Paganism as Magic"; flyers from independent trade unions; petitions to the European Parliament and U.S. Congress from relatives of the victims of the terrorist act in Beslan and much more.
It is not only texts that are banned. Rock songs are on the list, including one called "No Chance for Marxists," as are paintings by avant-garde artists and even a computer game that is set during the Chechen war.
Just like their 18th-century predecessors, today's censors even banned an encyclopedia produced in 21st-century Moscow, specifically a volume with an article titled "The Chechen Republic."
Naturally, the new generation of Russian censors has focused its attention primarily on the Internet. They have blocked access to sites of skinhead groups, the anti-fascist movement "Antifa," fan sites of heavy metal rock groups and a forum that discussed the 1971 book "The Anarchist Cookbook." Like almost all censors, they lack a sense of humor. Lurkmore, a tongue-in-cheek youth version of Wikipedia, was banned in its entirety for one day for an article called "Marijuana Soup." The article is still forbidden.
Last week the censors grabbed the world's attention when they banned YouTube as an extremist site. The ban lasted all of one day, after which an official explained that its inclusion was a "technical error." In reality, Gennady Onishchenko, head of the Federal Consumer Protection Service, demanded that 22 videos on the site be banned.(...)"
Everyone in Russia needs to know that if he or she posts a blog post quoting something from a banned book or a link to a banned video, it's an offense and may be punished under the law.
Another example given by Victor Davidoff is a Moscow-based writer and journalist who follows the Russian blogosphere:
" (...) On Tuesday, writer Boris Stomakhin was arrested in Moscow after a search of his apartment. Stomakhin is one of the small group of Russian activists who believes that the only way to revive democracy in Russia is through violent revolution. He has never hidden his views and has even supported Chechen separatists in his articles, which resulted in a five-year prison sentence in 2006. When the police came for him, Stomakhin tried to escape by jumping out a fourth-floor window. He broke his spine and both ankles and today uses crutches or a cane to walk.
The new charges against Stomakhin have not been made public, but some sources say they include posting articles on his site from three Chechen separatist websites deemed "extremist." One of the articles was a letter from the Chechen diaspora to the prime minister of Turkey about a number of murders allegedly committed by assassins sent by Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov. That could send Stomakhin back to prison for another five years.
Human rights activist Vladimir Bukovsky wrote about Stomakhin on the Grani.ru blog: "He is crippled with a broken spine. Why was he arrested? Only because Stomakhin wrote what he thought. He didn't blow anyone up, kill anyone, rob anyone or attack anyone. He was arrested for what he wrote. And with that, it's back to the U.S.S.R."
No. It is not back to the USSR - it is simply to be in a country where there is a majority of Ethnic Russians - who have a mentality of imperialist slaves - which means that they are slaves and think they could be superiors to others slaves. These Ethnic Russians - who are unable to support to be in a democratic country, with free and fair elections, with balance of powers, with independence of Justice, with a corruption under control, with respect of property, etc etc like any East European Countries included Ukraine and Georgia - these Ethnic Russians to feel good as slave want and could live only under a dictatorship. The one with Putin is weak, too much corrupted. They need "real" and "tough" master. They are begging that the Chinese are taking the place that theTatar-Mongol have had before.
We, as Europeans, we are promising to help them in this direction.
Then the first steps in the internet censorship look like so ridiculous, so weak,so stupid ( as usual) that we could be sure that the Chinese will help them and the Chinese will impose their rules, their ways to do.
Dear Kuzmich, could you comment on this given by Victor Davidoff is a Moscow-based writer and journalist who follows the Russian blogosphere?
" (...) On Tuesday, writer Boris Stomakhin was arrested in Moscow after a search of his apartment.

It is true than famine in the 30es depended on Kremplin's politics. The silly point in all the ukrainian elite's jazz about the "Holodomor" is: they act as if the famine hit ONLY Ukraine, even sillier, as if it was designed by the "Moskali" ONLY AGAINST UKRAINE. It interested the whole USSR, from Russia to Kazakhstan and over. Pretending it was an anti-ukrainian- only "holocaust" is not historic "now-revealed" thruth, it's political dirty trick, and nothing else.
writer Boris Stomakhin was arrested in Moscow after a search of his apartment. Stomakhin is one of the small group of Russian activists who believes that the only way to revive democracy in Russia is through violent revolution.He has never hidden his views and has even supported Chechen separatists in his articles, which resulted in a five-year prison sentence in 2006.
Maybe you missed a word: VIOLENT. Has Russia the right to defend itself from violent (i.e. "armed", even with nukes, just in case) rebellions (and their apologetes)? Yes, it has. And this is not only Putin's words. It's international law.
In a not so recent, but always valid, statement, regarding an episode of the second chechen war (the battle also known as "Konsomolskoe") the European court of justice has stated that Russia had (and has) the right to use force against armed rebellions. In that case, the russian governent was after all indicted for "eccessive use of the force", and condemned to refund the material damages to the civilians involved in the fight. But for "eccessive use of the force" was intended the use of artillery and so on. Not of the police...
You are NOT european, resign...no matter where you live...
Has anybody seen Glucksmann?
Well, in the good old US of A the Phoenix (AZ) Public Library blocks Cracked.com on its computers because it is apparently "tasteless".
Bednaya Rossiya. Failed State. Doloy Putin.
Poor idiot...
Its you who is a failed person, hands off our leader.
I don't think I'm suffering. I have one or two bucks.
Another pagent blond.
"Your " leader? Putin? is it a joke? Putin , this street guy, this little criminal with no education, totally manipulated by his "friends" - "friends" who are a little bit more educated than himself (Putin) , but of course who have a much better efficiency in their way to get their money back from him (Putin) - in a way that it will him(Putin), the poor stupid street guy, Putin, who will go in jail for the rest of his life or be killed like Gaddafi for their own benefits.
If you dare here - in this Free Press, and Free World - to write "our" leader, it means quite of things: first you are a primitive Russian Chauvinist with no education, a slavish lover of dictator - even the most corrupted, second that you have not understand we don't want you here, we don't need you, we are among civilized and educated people, we don't want that our discussion will be polluted, distracted in any way, by backward Russian Orthodox.
I have graduated from LSE and Stanford+nuclear physics degree from a great Russian uni. So you are not even close on this point. Second, you are so primitive that the only thing you understand is a couple of stereotypes and thinking templates that knowing nothing media has told you. What is the point in receiving education, if it doesnt teach you to think and fills your head with garbage?
You are such a sack full of stereotypes that I am not going to disspel your fairy tale. Time will prove.
Ps: Putin!
I believe there's no way to control Internet. If to do so, you have to ban it totally. Personally, I did not feel any restrictions. At least I can debate with Didomyk and that is more than enough. However, some of my innocent posts to Didomyk and his friend and disciple Sir Walter(benjamin) have been deleted by the Economist moderator. Can we speak here of censorship in the Economist?
My experience debating with you anything from the Russian navy to the supply of vodka for the poor and underpriviledged has been invaluable to say the least. I would NEVER support censorship of your posts !
In other words, Didomyk would be more than willing to introduce censorship of posts that to him DO seem to be well substantiated yet contradict his Russophobic stance.
Great comment!
Say it with me everybody: VPN.
Thats right, VPN.
Whats it called? A VPN? Whats it do? Says fuck you! (to censorship of course).
And if your site is hosted in shitsville, getting governed by nannystate, move your hosting, simple as that.
In the Kremlin's defense, I'm sure Pedobear would go for Medvedev. The dude has the stature of a prepubescent.
Meta: I can't believe there was a legit reason to namedrop the 4chan mascot on TE.
Mere idiocy or so-called xenophobia is no excuse for this type of 100% political censorship: c'mon kids - it's salami-tactics by another name. Putin & Co. are as pathetically dishonest as they are 'stupid', as Zbig. B. said during a BBC interview a long time ago. The sad thing is that these folk are as intellectually bankrupt as their kleptocracy is corrupt. All of us will end up paying this travesty, one way or another.
Not a fan of censure of any kind but this website is mostly composed of tons of racist xenophobic rants directed at guestworkers and anyone who doesnt meet neo-aryans standards in appearances
Your comment reminds me of the idiots (e.g., some Duma deputies) saying that the "internet" mainly consists of porn. Lurkmore is a seriously good and funny site.
I'm afraid, you never visited this site actually.
The Internet *isn't* mainly porn? I'm so disappointed!
But it REALLY mainly consists in porn...
When was investment to Russia transparent? It's always a risk, even if you have government "guarantees". The state is ran by a mob, hence mob laws are in effect.
""dudka," which means "penny whistle," or in its slang usage, a bong or some other pipe for smoking marijuana."
Careful! This could get TE blacklisted too.
This is what Obama and his henchmen want here in the USA
Putting some sugar on those sour grapes might help you accept the outcome of the presidential election.
Conservatives, dictatorships (on the left and on the right) and religious types are the biggest supporters of censorship. Liberals want openness, transparency and free speech: it's part of the definition of the term liberal.
Vladimir Putin has said that the collapse of the USSR was the greatest tragedy. All his actions since taking office have been about restoring what he sees are the glories of the Soviet Union, with himself as Stalin-in-waiting. Censorship and control of the media are only the first steps in creating a dictatorship. Look at what Hugo Chavez has done to Venezuela if you want a recent object lesson.
Since Hussein Obama was Kremlin's preferred candidate comrade Putin might offer some valuable know-how in exchange for Obama's promised flexibility to bend over backwards to Russians
"Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny called on the authorities to add his personal blog to the list of the banned web-site in one of his (often funny and sarcastic) twits."
Yet one proof, the so called Russia opposition is so desperate, it wants to be put on the child abusers list to gain popularity, heh, heh, heh :D
What a bunch of losers the west paid "opposition" are. Their recent election of leadership using the net disclosed the embarrassing for the opposition in Russia fact that there is about 70 thousand west paid agents out of 50 million
internet users in Russia, what is INSIGNIFICANT number. This number is less than 1% of the Moscow population of 13 million alone.
PATHETIC, the west paid opposition in Russia is PATHETIC, what's no wonder considering the fact that the Russia people remember with disgust the times of US-supported Yeltsin DERMOcrapy when his US HIID advisers and their oligarch byproduct robbed Russia white.
The Harvard Boys Do Russia
Janine R. Wedel May 14, 1998
After seven years of economic "reform" financed by billions of dollars in U.S. and other Western aid, subsidized loans and rescheduled debt, the majority of Russian people find themselves worse off economically. The privatization drive that was supposed to reap the fruits of the free market instead helped to create a system of tycoon capitalism run for the benefit of a corrupt political oligarchy that has appropriated hundreds of millions of dollars of Western aid and plundered Russia's wealth.
Essential to the implementation of Chubais's policies was the enthusiastic support of the Clinton Administration and its key representative for economic assistance in Moscow, the Harvard Institute for International Development. Using the prestige of Harvard's name and connections in the Administration, H.I.I.D. officials acquired virtual carte blanche over the U.S. economic aid program to Russia, with minimal oversight by the government agencies involved. With this access and their close alliance with Chubais and his circle, they allegedly profited on the side. Yet few Americans are aware of H.I.I.D.'s role in Russian privatization, and its suspected misuse of taxpayers' funds.
The activities of H.I.I.D. in Russia provide some cautionary lessons on abuse of trust by supposedly disinterested foreign advisers, on U.S. arrogance and on the entire policy of support for a single Russian group of so-called reformers. The H.I.I.D. story is a familiar one in the ongoing saga of U.S. foreign policy disasters created by those said to be our "best and brightest."
That piece of primitive "wisdom' must have earned XOXOL XOXOLOV another 1% in Kremlin's year-end performance bonus !
Pathetic opposition? Quite possibly, but what can you expect when you see the pathetic president marching shirtless in the tundra as a publicity stunt. If such undignified behaviour brings votes to a president, what can you expect from a poorly funded opposition to the almighty KGB?
The KGB ceased to exist in 1991, another casualty of the collapse of the USSR.
Of course, but we continue to use the name, as it has so many dark overtones and because Putin is so proud of that era.
but what can you expect when you see the pathetic president marching shirtless in the tundra as a publicity stunt.
Well, everyone makes the "publicity stunts" he (and the public) likes. Go shirtless in the tundra (or was it the taiga?) is by no means an Ivy league standard, but what's "undignified" in it? Did he show too much personal parts? Does not seems...So what?
Its primitive macho behavior, which says much about where his support is coming from. He does not present himself as a thinking man, an artist, a scientist, an engineer, a businessman, a writer, a statesman ... but a prehistoric hunter type.
There's a time for everything under the sky. If you would understand russian language and would have connected to a major russian site, you could have followed a quite interesting press conference of the "prehistoric hunter type", with tthe participation of russian and foreign journalists. About 4 hours of questions and answers, n a wide range of questions, from business to science and from foreign to domestic politics, not always so domesticated as you could think (including a frank discussion with a russian speaking -honor is due- american journalist about the question of the Dima Yakovlev Law -aka Herod's law, of course-). Maybe this is not a publicity stunt (too long, and by Jove, why not in english?), but for a primitive machho, well, it was not so bad...
Ah, well...so, as Estonians are so proud of their SS veterans (monuments, parades, etc.), the russians have full right to call that country ESStonia...right, I take note...
The subtle art of fact checking is obviously unknown to the mysterious "J.Y. in Moscow".
Care to elaborate, anglichanin_lj from cyberspace?
I sense major ChSV.
Lurkmore is back on the air at http://lurkmore.to/
Three cheers for internet freedom!
Quite amusingly, the number of visits to the banned pages of Lurkmore increased substantially once the news about this devilish roster of web-sites had leaked to the top topics in the Russian-language Internet.
Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny called on the authorities to add his personal blog to the list of the banned web-site in one of his (often funny and sarcastic) twits. And some folks have filed a mock complaint about the official web-site of Russian president as a nasty source of child pornography, alas with no effect so far.
But to be more serious, I believe such a surge in the authorities' interest in the Internet regulation stems from the recent spillover of political protest from the Internet into off-line reality, as the opposition politicians (such as Mr. Navalny) try to reach out to the general public and increasingly use the Internet as a tool in attempting to pressure the authorities. For instance, they set up a watch-dog web-site, where any person could file a complaint about the increasingly inefficient local housing services and utilities providers, so that it would be automatically posted to a competent authority. Such spill-overs of discontent from the Web to the "off-line reality" are not what Russian authorities would tolerate. The bitter digital lessons of the Arab Spring might not have been lost on some officials in the Russian administration, after all.
Or perhaps the lesson of the Arab Spring has been lost on the Russian government. The lesson being that you cannot put the Internet genie back in the bottle. Once it is out, you can't control what people know, or what they believe, with any success. And if you try, all you will do is hasten the day when you get tossed onto the junk heap of history.
The lesson is to go exactly the opposite direction that the Russian government has chosen.
Just opposite, the Russia popular government is having a good laugh on the internet activities of the increasingly unpopular "opposition" (read west paid agents). The recent internet pools by the Russia opposition loons demonstrate the fact that their number is completely INSIGNIFICANT (about 70 thousands out of 134 MILLION country). What the heck, the opposition number is less than 1% of the Moscow population of 13 MILLION alone. The article states there are 50 million internet users in Russia, so the opposition number are pitiful even compared to the number of internet users too.
No wonder Putin laughs his arse off on the whiny insignificant opposition as the western masters of thei Russia opposition agents stomp their little feet and moan in powerless rage, heh, heh, heh :D
"Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny called on the authorities to add his personal blog to the list of the banned web-site in one of his (often funny and sarcastic) twits."
If he is so desperately needing self-stigmatization... why not publish a manual to growing fresh marijuana on a balcony? ))
So, now we know what happened to Saddam Hussein's public relations staff.
"So, now we know what happened to Saddam Hussein's public relations staff."
Yes, he got tortured by the US war criminals in Abu Ghraib.
My heart bleeds for the genocidal bastard.
" The recent internet pools by the Russia opposition loons demonstrate the fact that their number is completely INSIGNIFICANT (about 70 thousands out of 134 MILLION country)."
That sentence requires clarification. There may or may not be 70,000 activists in the country. What is certain from the statistics (alcoholism, depression, suicide, dwindling male lifespans) is that the rest of the population would desperately prefer to be somewhere else.
> What is certain from the statistics (alcoholism, depression, suicide, dwindling male lifespans) is that the rest of the population would desperately prefer to be somewhere else.
How about checking some statistics, which is not 10-15 years out of date?
And being accused to be pro-Putin? God save all of us...

Normally I always go with michelin and in this case it would have been the pilot super sports, but i wanted to do something different and i like the look of the s-04's better. BIG mistake umbres. Although they do everything the review say they do (second place to the michelin supersports being #1) i am throughly disappointed in the tire. Why? ?The treat life is the worst of any tire I have ever owned. I do not drift them/brake burn or otherwise abuse them..have put 6000 km on them and they have lost 20% of the tread. No lie. Makes me sick thinking that i could have had the michelin pilot supersports for extra 100. Never again am i venturing away from Michelin. Period.

I recently replaced the factory Potenza's with these. I have always had separate Winter Tires (Dunlop SP Wintersport 3), and I never looked forward to switching back to the original factory all weather tires. I finally wore them out and got the the new Pole Positions after much research. The car just doesn't move at all around hard turns. I was really surprised by how smooth and quiet they rode for a performance tire even at a little higher inflation (I'm keeping them inflated at 38psi front and 36psi rear). I tried a few different combos of inflation and they drove best a little stiffer. They are very low profile. So far wet driving has been excellent. Love these. The review screen required me to rate treadwear and snow. Since it's a summer tire, I do not drive these in the snow. I have not had them long enough to rate treadware accurately.

I used these tires for occasional canyon runs and daily driving though Los Angeles. These tires once warm handled great and super responsive, though they were a little unpredictable when it came to oversteer. The tires have a very sturdy sidewall so it also important to keep an eye on your air pressure as well. Wet grip is a little disappointing, though it is still there and has capabilities, the limits are easily pushed. Noise is not bad, but could be a little quieter, no complaints. Though the huge negative is tread-wear!!! These tires lasted me about 7,500 miles. Which I am pretty ticked off about. Especially knowing that Nitto Motivos have a 30,000 mileage warranty for staggered fitment through Americas Tires. Giving me a guarantee of at least 3 times the life. Overall...A good sport tire, but not for the daily driven car.

Not as good as I had hoped. Had Bridgestone on other cars and hoped these would be different because of low profile but no so. Put these on the rear. They were typical of all the others. Very soft so the rear end is mushy in quick, sharp moves in traffic. Feels like the rear follows much later than the front and the Boxster is known for perfect balance in steering response. In defense of the Bridgestone on my other cars, once they wore down sufficiently, they performed well. I am hoping the same happens but who wants to wait 5k miles for them to perform?

New efforts to curb cellphone theft
Tuesday - 5/7/2013, 2:00am EDT
Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) -- Disturbed by the nationwide epidemic of cellphone robberies and thefts, law enforcement officials across the country are looking to the wireless industry to help find a cure.
In San Francisco, where half the robberies were phone-related last year, District Attorney George Gascon is calling on major companies in nearby Silicon Valley to create new technology such as a "kill switch" to permanently and quickly disable stolen smart phones, making them worthless to thieves.
The prosecutor said he's recently had two discussions with Apple, maker of the popular iPhone, and has talked informally with Google, creator of the Android, the world's most popular operating smartphone platform. And, he also wants to meet with Samsung, the global smartphone market leader.
"We know that the technology can be developed to prevent this. This is more about social responsibility than economic gain," Gascon said.
The stakes are huge in the battle to combat cellphone theft. Nearly 175 million cellphones -- mostly smartphones-- have been sold in the U.S. in the past year and account for $69 billion in sales, according to IDC, a Massachusetts-based research firm.
And, now almost one out of three robberies nationwide involves the theft of a mobile phone, reports the Federal Communications Commission, which is coordinating formation this fall of a highly-anticipated national database system to track cellphones reported stolen.
The FCC is also working with officials in Mexico to crack down on the trafficking of stolen mobile phones that make it across the border.
San Francisco's district attorney is not the only high-ranking big-city law official seeking solutions.
In Washington D.C, where than 40 percent of its robberies in 2012 involved cellphones, police Chief Cathy Lanier said new federal laws are necessary to require all wireless providers to participate in the national stolen phones database, which is now done by choice.
"This is a voluntary agreement and the decision makers, heads of these (wireless) companies may transition over time and may not be in the same position five years from now." Lanier said in an email. "Something needs to be put in place to protect consumers."
On the theory that an inoperable phone is as useless as a "brick," Lanier and Mayor Vincent Gray also have urged residents who have their phones stolen to call their carriers and ask that the device be "bricked," or disconnected remotely to prevent resale on the black market.
In New York City, police have created a smartphone squad and partnered with Apple to track down stolen iPhones using the device's tracking number. For example, when an iPhone is stolen, Apple can report to police where the phone is located, even if it's been switched to a different carrier.
Police said the city's overall crime rate last year increased three percent mostly due to the more than 15,000 thefts of Apple-related products -- a majority of them iPhones -- said Paul Browne, a police spokesman.
"We would've had a one percent decrease in overall crime if you subtracted the Apple thefts," said Browne, adding that police have coined the phenomenon, "Apple-picking."
"We're trying to protect the orchard, so to speak," Browne said.
He added that police often use officers as decoys using their own iPhones to catch would-be robbers and stings to catch those who sell them on the black market. About 75 percent of the stolen devices stay within the city's five boroughs and some have been tracked down as far as the Dominican Republic.
In addition, New York Police Commissioner Ray Kelly has been working with U.S. Sen. Charles Schumer, D-New York, the FCC and CTIA, a trade group for wireless providers, on the national stolen phone database, along with six of the largest wireless companies.
Computer security expert Darren Hayes said law enforcement agencies, major corporations and the wireless industry have responded slowly to the spike in mobile phone thefts, leaving individuals as well as businesses vulnerable.
"Smartphones have become such an extension of our lives with all of our personal information on them and criminals recognizing its mass appeal," said Hayes, a professor and computer information systems program chair at Pace University in New York. "Professionally, there are some corporate network administrators who can control their company servers from their smartphone. While it's convenient, it could also put them at risk and could be the biggest source of data loss if they are stolen.
"We could see a potential nightmare emerging," Hayes said.
Jamie Hastings, a CTIA vice president, said the national stolen phone database is a step in the right direction and deserves a chance.

Funding for international assistance makes up less that 1 percent of the federal budget and provides critical, life-saving assistance to combat HIV and AIDS, hunger, malaria, child mortality, and more.
Even though these programs do immeasurable good and make up a negligible percentage of the overall federal budget, they could be subjected to severe cuts, depending on the outcome of negotiations between Congress and the White House.
Send a message to your members of Congress and the President. Ask them to oppose major cuts to international assistance, and work with members of both parties to ensure that these programs are protected. There are few places in the U.S. federal budget where dollars translate so directly into lives saved.
Please add your own thoughts to the message we provide below.

The act of winning a Party Hat in a duel in Runescape. To scalp someone, you "bet" your Party Hat and they bet theirs. If you win, you scalped you opponent. If they win, you got scalped. This term is also used for Santa Hats and H'Ween Masks.
Dude, I totaly scalped that losers Party Hat last night. I owned him, he was super pissed.

ElisLos Angeles, CATweezers By Rubis - The Only Tweezer You'll Ever NeedThese are the best tweezers on the market. I have had one since college (over 10 yrs). Recently I replaced it with a new one. Ive had Tweezerman and it doesnt work nearly as well as Rubis. This product actually grabs the hair and doesnt break it like other brands. It even grabs the shortest most stubborn hairs. In fact, my sister liked it so much I purchased one for her too. She wont use any other now!posted Jun 13, 2006Link to this post

AnonymousAugusta, ARWent Back To The Ticket Counter To Save It!I love it. I bought one for my mom, too. I had a trip and went through dreaded security at the airpot. They tried to keep my tweezers!!! I left security, went back to the ticket counter and had them put my Rubis tweezers in an envelope with my name on it so I could get them when I returned!! I had a better chance of getting them back that way! They are a beauty must! Eyebrow hairs beware!posted Mar 29, 2006Link to this post

Why use CUDA instead of OpenGL?
It seems retarded.
Then you stuck with Nvidia forever and cant change to another vendor.
Maybe Nvidia goes under in some years, then what do you do now with your legacy CUDA stuff?
Why not just OpenGL instead which is a standard that works everywhere on everything?

Tuesday, April 16, 2013 - New Castle, DE
Senior Jillian Stafford hit a two-run home run in the bottom of the third inning, setting a new Wilmington University softball single season RBI record, leading the Wildcats to a Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference sweep over Chestnut Hill, 14-1 and 10-0, on Tuesday at Asbury Field.
Stafford's home run in the third inning of the first game gave the senior 39 RBI's on the season, breaking the single season mark of 37 set by Kelly Schirmer in 2007. Her home run was the final runs of an eight run third inning, after the Wildcats (26-16, 13-5 CACC) tallied six in the bottom of the first.
Rachel Painter also capped the first inning outburst with a home run, smacking a two run shot over the wall in center to score Brooke Berger for the 6-0 lead. Stafford then led off the bottom of the third with a double, later coming up to hit her second home run of the season down the left field line.
The six run first inning was more than enough for sophomore starter Chelsea Botsch, as she improved to 10-7 overall with a five inning complete game. She struck out eight batters while only allowing one run on four hits. Botsch is now 7-1 in her last eight appearances.
Senior Sky Boris led the Whiles with three hits and three RBI's, going a perfect 3-for-3 with a double. Christin Headley hit her ninth double to go 2-for-3 while Brook Ash, Stafford, and Painter all collected two hits in game one. Painter also knocked in three runs while Headley and Stafford chipped in with two each.
Wilmington used another big inning to kick start the second game, scoring six runs in the bottom of the second to set the tone for the doubleheader sweep. Painter added two more RBI's on her day with a single in the second before Headley hit her team leading fourth triple of the season, scoring one, to round out the six run inning.
After Katie Warrington shut the Griffins (8-22, 5-15 CACC) in the third and fourth innings, recording three strike outs combined, the Wildcats struck again with four more runs in the fourth.
Another record was on the table on Tuesday, as Ash, a freshman from Millsboro, Del., collected her third hit of the afternoon, giving her 62 on the season. Ash is now tied for the program record for hits in a single season set by Lindsay Watson in 2009.
Ash started the fourth with a one out single, before coming around to score on a sacrifice fly by Boris. Brooke Berger followed with a two run double, before Painter gave the Wildcats a 10-0 lead with an RBI single to right.
Danielle Griffin replaced Warrington for the fifth, setting Chestnut Hill down in order to end the game with the eight-run mercy rule.
Headley, Stafford, Berger, Painter, and Botsch all collected two hits in game two, while Berger and Painter led the team with three RBI's each.
Warrington improved to 13-3 on the season, striking out seven Griffins while not allowing a run and giving up two hits in four innings.
The two wins stretch the Wildcats' win streak to six straight, having now won 14 of their last 16 games overall. The team remains at its friendly confines for the remainder of the week, hosting two more CACC doubleheaders. The first twinbill is set for Thursday against Georgian Court with the first pitch scheduled for 3 p.m. at Asbury Field.

'The Expendables 2′ "Payback" TV Spot – Starring Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger & Jason Statham
Showcasing new snippets of action-packed footage, Lionsgate has unleashed this "Payback" TV spot for Simon West's 'The Expendables 2.' The testosterone-filled film sees Sylvester Stallone's Barney Ross, Jason Statham's Lee Christmas, Jet Li's Yin Yang, Dolph Lundgren's Gunnar Jensen, Terry Crews' Hale Caesar, Randy Couture's Toll Road, Bruce Willis' Mr. Church, and Arnold Schwarzenegger's Trent 'Trench' Mauser return from 'The Expendables.' The likes of Chuck Norris' J.B 'The Lone Wolf' Booker, Liam Hemsworth's Bill 'The Kid' Timmons, Scott Adkins' Hector, Nan Yu's Maggie, Amanda Ooms' Pilar and Jean-Claude Van Damme's Jean Vilain join the fray in 'The Expendables 2.' In this sequel, Mr. Church reunites the Expendables for what should be an easy paycheck, but when one of their men is murdered on the job, their quest for revenge puts them deep in enemy territory and up against an unexpected threat. 'The Expendables 2′ arrives in cinemas August 17th.
The Expendables are back and this time it's personal… Barney Ross (Sylvester Stallone), Lee Christmas (Jason Statham), Yin Yang (Jet Li), Gunnar Jensen (Dolph Lundgren),Toll Road (Randy Couture) and Hale Caesar (Terry Crews) — with newest members Billy the Kid (Liam Hemsworth) and Maggie (Yu Nan) aboard — are reunited when Mr. Church (Bruce Willis) enlists the Expendables to take on a seemingly simple job. The task looks like an easy paycheck for Barney and his band of old-school mercenaries. But when things go wrong and one of their own is viciously killed, the Expendables are compelled to seek revenge in hostile territory where the odds are stacked against them. Hell-bent on payback, the crew cuts a swath of destruction through opposing forces, wreaking havoc and shutting down an unexpected threat in the nick of time — six pounds of weapons-grade plutonium; enough to change the balance of power in the world. But that's nothing compared to the justice they serve against the villainous adversary who savagely murdered their brother. That is done the Expendables way….
From Lionsgate and Millennium Films, THE EXPENDABLES 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to the summer 2010 worldwide box-office success ($274 million worldwide). The film stars Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren, Terry Crews, Randy Couture, with Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger, with newest cast members Liam Hemsworth, martial arts legends Chuck Norris and Jean Claude Van Damme, and Chinese actress Yu Nan as the first female EXPENDABLE. The film is directed by Simon West, written by Sylvester Stallone and based on characters created by David Callaham, and produced by Avi Lerner, Danny Lerner, Les Weldon, and Kevin King Templeton. Avi Lerner, Danny Lerner, Les Weldon, and Kevin King Templeton produce.

DENVER -Thieves have been stealing the 420 mile marker sign so often, Colorado's transportation department has changed it to "419.99" in an effort to try and stop the problem.
A photo of the 419.99 mile marker sign, which is about 148 miles on Interstate 70 east of Denver, began circulating on twitter through the @JournalistsLike twitter account on Friday.
"So this is our way to test it out. So far it's working," said Amy Ford, a spokesperson with the Colorado Department of Transportation. "It's a traffic safety thing. It's a helpful thing to have these sings on the road. But people kept ripping them off."
The number 420 is often used as a reference to smoking marijuana.
The 419.99 sign has been put up within the last year Ford said.
Ford also says they've had problems with thieves stealing the 69 mile marker sign in the past.
