Completely ridiculous you could say the same thing about so many other things drinking, smoking, food porn, pot, fad diets, life extension through calorie restriction, religious fasting, cleansing, extreme bodybuilding etc..
These are the same tired and irrational arguments people used against gays.
It is one thing to try to force a lifestyle on everyone like gays try to do now, vs allowing the freedom of information and association.
Personally, I wouldn't argue that these sites should be banned. But the "ana" lifestyle still an unhealthy way of life which is pushed by people who have little to no understanding of human health-- or worse, a highly flawed understanding based off of pseudoscience and bullshit.
Starving yourself to the point of near-death is no where near the same as having a healthy homosexual relationship. Frankly, the comparison you made is bizarre and nonsensical. Stop insulting the intelligence of everyone who reads your post by trying to seriously push forth that comparison.
I agree its not healthy but again, many things people do are unhealthy or dangerous.
If you're going to have freedom of ideas, beliefs, information, and association, you can't pick and choose arbitrary what that applies to.
This is what irks me about ideologist, the hypocrisy and irrationality they champion freedom, but then go about restricting for everyone else.
and if the only thing that you got from my post was to get defensive about homosexuality then you've proved my point that most people (liberal) like your are totally hypocritical, closed minded and ignorant. no where did I say there was anything wrong with homosexuality, like it people have outlandish arbitrary arguments about whats good and bad and then try to ban it.
Try actually reading the post that you responded to. I stated that I do not support banning the ana websites.
My objection was not to your sentiment that they should not be banned; I agree with you, in fact, freedom of speech is freedom of speech, even if the speech is stupid. Rather, my objection was to your claim that an idiotic lifestyle choice, a lifestyle which is objectively and scientifically unhealthy, is equivalent to a homosexual union.
There is no scientific or objective basis for the comparison.
Anorexia is yet another manifestation of prevalent perversions of an increasingly decadent West. In parts of the world where hunger and lack of food are not a lifestyle choice at all, but an ever present pernicious reality , it is no joking matter , but a matter of life and death. The children in Ethiopia would be confounded if they knew that there are actually people ( existing ) who have food but will not eat it out of choice. This clearly is a psychiatric condition which should not be entertained in any way at all. Personally if children are brought up to be more rounded , and to appreciate the things they have, then they are more likely to look after them properly and with greater care. It is totally negligent and irresponsible not to look after our bodies properly. Our bodies are the most important and precious thing we have. Ever mature well balanced individual has a duty to look after his/her with all the care and attention it deserves - and that includes eating properly. Children brought to really value their bodies and who interact with mature people pointing them in the right direction will be less likely to adopt this narcissist and indulgent focusing on oneself ( and ), are less likely to be swayed or influenced by the maggots who have nothing better to do than to encourage young impressionable people to adopt what is a most unhealthy lifestyle.
People who have really suffered , and have actually starved ( not out of choice ) , would find this whole matter totally incomprehensible.
As someone still recovering from an eating disorder, even this article was hard to read. So I think removing "thinspirational" or pro-anorexia content is actually not only welcome but necessary. Studies about societies that did not have access to Westernized media / television ( islanders) show that they had a surprisingly low and quasi-inexistent number of eating disorders. However, after the introduction of such media, the number of cases blew up over the next decade. I think there are too many subtle cues to in our media, but also blatantly destructive content, which present unsustainable ideals of beauty in women and the more we fight against them the better.
Given the dangers eating disorders pose to someone's physical well-being, I wouldn't be surprised if these web platforms were removing the pro-ana content so they're not liable for anything if someone dies or is hospitalized. Even if that's not why they started doing it, its certainly a good reason to continue doing it.
It would be lovely if fat acceptance websites were also banned.
The meme that being overweight is healthy and natural is far more prevalent and harmful, and obesity is an eating disorder that is far more harmful and widespread than anorexia.
No, it really isn't. Hell, both under and over eating can lead to diabetes.
70% of Americans are overweight/obese. There are around 300,000 deaths related to obesity every year.
Statistics on anorexia and bulimia are not as solid, but seem to indicate something like 1-2% of the American population suffers from these eating disorders.
Just over 200 people a year die from anorexia and bulimia.
The problems are nowhere near comparable. Obesity is far more widespread and harmful.
This is a false equivalency. "Fat acceptance" websites do not encourage users to eat excessively, to gain weight, to deliberately make themselves unhealthy. They do not offer tips on how to sneak food or fool people -- friends, doctors, parents, spouses -- about how much they are eating. Essentially, in a world that increasingly posits overweight as a moral failing, "fat acceptance" sites serve to counter this ignorant and pernicious view and help readers believe that they are not "bad" because they are fat.
Irrelevant nonsense.
Just because Obesity is more common does not make Anorexia any healthier.
In world of EPIDEMIC OBESITY, the small minority of Anorexics may have something to teach us:
How to master your hunger.
How to NOT overeat.
How to lose weight...and keep it off.
How to exercise self control.
How to defy popular culture and the media.
How to be different.
How to be yourself.
Life is about staying in the mean and avoiding the extremes.
Extreme Anorexia is bad--but so is Morbid Obesity.
They're not teaching us how to be different.
They want so badly to conform theirselves that they put their life in danger, just to be like mass media want them to be.
Ana = Thin = Perfect.
An anorexic is not being herself, she's just striving to be someone she is not.
Always well put.
Beat agrees that banning isn't the answer - for us it's more about understanding what purpose pro anorexic sites have for people and then providing for that in alternative, helpful and safe ways.
What we don't have is sufficiently discriminating technology that would be able to ban pro ana without also inadvertently preventing access to positive recovery focused information.
I always find these 'if you ban them, people will just go elsewhere' arguments very weak. No-one expects that banning child pornography will reduce the number of paedophiles, either.
While child pornography is a much clearer-cut case than pro-anorexia sites, banning is simply one of many measures that eventually, potentially, help reduce the risk of children starving themselves to death.
Combined with other kinds of support, the banning makes sense. But to assume that one measure fits them all, doesn't.
Consider spamming these sites and forums with context sensitive advertising for support lines or groups aimed at showing people a helpful solution to their problem wherever they go to find ways to hide said problem.
Instead of outright banning the communities and pushing them underground, shift them to the solution.
Agreed. It also sends out a strong and powerful message that anorexia is unnaceptable behaviour and that you need to seek help, particularly if you are seeking out 'illegal' websites to help your mental disorder.
Proana and promia sites should not be illegal. Have you ever heard of telling people with depression that their feelings or they were "unacceptable?"
It is not about sending a message to people in that situation. That just makes people who don't understand the problem feel better. This is not a criminal behavior. It is also self-contained. It doesn't keep people on the street safe from harm. Comparing it to sex-offenses is an irresponsible misapplication.
Particularly since an eating disorder is part of a sliding scale of lifestyle choices, meaning, people have visions for their body and ways to go about it that include diet, exercise at various amounts. This is one extreme, but the goal itself is not negative.
It is destructive, and deeply psychological. But there are also many ways to harm a body. The stigma against this hurts people more.
On the contrary, stigma is a very important part of prevention. If the stigma of being a single mother still existed, there would be far less of it and far less anti social and criminal behaviour as a result.
In the same way there would be less anorexia if any 'pro' sites are shut down and means of communication halted and stigma reintroduced.
It is utilatirianism I know but look:
PRO (to society): Less anorexia, less single mothers
COST (to society): The smaller minority of single mums and anoerixa sufferers are stigmatised and suffer more.
I think society wins overall out of that equation.
Omrocon you are confusing theory with reality. As any good economist knows people stubbornly do not conform to equations as they should.
Besides I don't think you need to stigmatise single mothers to achieve your goal, far simpler to remove/clarify the ethical dilemma of abortion.
Decades ago there was more stigma and less single mothers so we know it works.
I do agree that theory and practice often differ though.
Omicron, you need to either quit trolling (which the Economist and its readers do not really appreciate) or understand that correllation =/= causation. Lots of things were different decades ago, I doubt you could provide proof that it was the social stigma that CAUSED less single parent households. Although statistically coming from a single parent household is raises ones chances of doing drugs, crime, etc. it does by no means guarantee it. As the son of a single mother, I'm living proof. However, society stigmatizing single mothers would have almost certainly impacted my mother's life, as would being trapped in a loveless, possibly abusive relationship to avoid that stigma.
Personally, I think when you are discussing the benefit to "society" you really mean the benefit to YOU. You're not utilitarian, you're egoist. You want to shame anorexics into disappearing so they don't bother you. You don't want to be robbed, so you don't mind trapping a woman in an abusive relationship if that provides her child with two parents. Anorexics especially have no net-cost to society, it's a personal psychological problem and society wants to help them not because of the benefit to US, but the benefit to THEM.
Do you drink? Because alcoholism is a huge cost to society. Rather than AA or other programs, I just think all alcohol should be banned, and people who drink should be shamed and stigmatized. How does this sound to you, Omicron?
Firstly, I am not trolling, simply presenting a utilatarian and controversial view.
Secondly, I am not without compassion and I am all for helping those with mental health problems
I am however in favour of a presentation of normality from which deviation should be stigmatised eg a whole family unit, and not pursuing the sort of mental activities which lead to a person seeking a community on a pro ano website.
Alcoholism has a huge cost to society and I am glad you bring it up because in places where excessive drunkeness is stigmatised, there is a lot less of it, with people like the AA also being involved. I imagine something similar can happen with what I mentioned above. It is possible for society to leverage both stigma and compassion. The French for example consume more alcohol and get excessively drunk less than the British.
STigma can form part of a valid multi pronged social strategy.
PS Abusive relationships are only a small part of the reason for single motherhood. Stigma would be a big stick for proper use of contraception, in addition to properly targetted benefits that try as much as possible to help child and not mother.
You are neither. Utilitarianism depends on benefit to a greater number of people. You have ignored two people pointing out that anerexia is not harmful to society, it's harmful to the people who have it. Who are you helping? You already admitted that those stigmitized will be harmed more.
You are also presenting a common view, but a mistaken one. For example, stigmitization of STDs does not lead to less STDs, it leads to less honesty about it, and people refusing to get treatment or be honest with their partners. Numerous other examples can show the same pattern. Try a search about how stigmitization affects prevention, and also, stigmitization of mental illness.
Criminalizing self harm doesn't prevent it either. Examples, drug use, abortion(leading to attempts at underground or home alternatives), prohibition, sexuality...
Both of your suggestions lead to harmful results.
stigmatisation generally leads to less people taking up a particularly harmful behaviour or social problem. the benefit to society is all of the people that would have taken up that problem and didnt (probably subconciously) due to the stigma attached to it. For example, less people would choose to become single mothers.
Do you know what causes less single mothers? Stoning any woman who has a child out of wedlock or attempts to divorce. Does this make it a better solution? No. AND it doesn't stop the situations that lead to unintended pregnancies.
The point about eating disorders specifically, is negative attention exasperates the problem. More attention to weight, skinny bashing, etc is conciliate harm.
A percentage of single mothers are so by choice. This percentage would be more or less eliminated if stigma was attached. Therefore the children of those mothers benefit from societal stigma as they are brought up in wedlock (or other loving and committed partnership) or not at all. Its straightforward logic see? societal benefit.
Stigma works.
Compassion and mental health programs also are required and also work.
You have yet to give proof of this.
Also, single mothers who made a choice to be single mothers are probably more responsible than many couples. It is not like it is a terrible situation. It can be but it can also be good, whether someone decides they are ready and able to bring up a child without having to irresponsibly get hitched first, or if say the mother or father dies. Making something that is hard harder with stigmitization doesn't help. It withdrawals support, creates job descrimination, increased anxiety, housing descrimination.
Either way, this ignores the focus of eating disorders being particularly harmed by additional attention and pressure. Are you taking EDs of the table?
You take attention away from an anorexia sufferer by banning and otherwise restricting the pro ano websites they would otherwise visit and restricting the attention they receive to close family and friends.
Stigma, yes. Discrimination, no of course not. The purpose of stigma is to prevent new cases of the stigmatised object, not to fix existing ones. Fixes should also be implemented as a separate action.
And it isnt my burden of proof, it is a neutral subject for which we should both require proof after further logical thought processes are exhausted.
That's pretty naive to think that, one, those are the only influences that they would have and, two, that the attention of family and friends would solve something. A lot of the time a parental figure, or social dynamic contributes to the problem. Again, websites offer support, and people who have an ED will constantly think about it. When they see their legs when they sit down, when lunch time is mentioned, when there is a food ad on TV, when someone tell them they look good, or bad, or tired.
Stigmatization is an inherent part of discrimination. They are bad and different, so I should treat them badly and/or differently.
Proving a claim about a cause or numerical increase that YOU make is YOUR burden.
It doesnt look like we are going to agree but the discussion was worthwhile.
I suggested a solution, not a cause. A solution which happened to have been in place until relatively recently (in terms of decades). Any action, inaction or reversion to status quo to tackle an issue should need proof or at least no negative proof. The burden of proof does not lie with either of us.
Stigma is NOT discrimination. Social stigma is repeated acknowledgment that the course of action someone has embarked on is socially unnaceptable. In other words they have fewer friends and less invites to dinner parties as well as continual criticism of their choices by the people they know. They should NOT hwoever be discriminated against for eg employment.
A solution cannot ignore a cause. Which is what your suggestion is doing. You are helping my point here.
And no, stigmatization is not discrimination. But they are inherently linked patterns of thought and action.
The stigma against promiscuity is used a reason to discriminate. Same with single mothers, political affiliations, appearance..
Even if your point was legitimate it's still unworkable. Smoking is thought to be socially unacceptable in many circles but if all your friends smoke then it's the norm. Unlike smoking you can't quit being a single parent so for a teenager whose friends'' are from single parent families, single parenthood becomes the norm. You can't stigmatise the norm.
i have a stone that will protect you from tigers that i'm selling, are you interested?

Mudfest puts SUVs to a true Northwest test

$1,165,160 worth of outdoor activity vehicles in the staging area at Mudfest 2013. This is the first and last time most of these vehicles will get dirty.
"Mudfest" is the name of the Northwest Automotive Press Association's (NWAPA) annual Sport Utility Vehicle of the Year competition, in which automakers are invited to enter their newest SUVs to compete in a two-day event that tests the vehicles on a skidpad, on paved roads, and off-road. Participating NWAPA members do the driving and scoring, then turn in their individual ballots for tallying at the end of day two. A winner is selected in each of five different categories, and one vehicle is declared the overall winner.
To reflect consumer and industry trends away from true SUVs in favor of crossover vehicles, this year the competition's explanatory title was changed to the Outdoor Activity Vehicle of the Year competition.
Mudfest 2013 took place April 17-18 at the 310-acre DirtFish Rally School site in Snoqualmie. This was the third consecutive year at DirtFish and the 19th year for Mudfest, which has been held at various locations in Washington and Oregon throughout its history.
Twenty-three vehicles were entered this year, and 31 NWAPA members participated. The five vehicle categories were Compact Class, Luxury Compact Class, Family Class, Luxury Class, and Off-road Class. Vehicles were evaluated for their on-road ride and handling, powertrain, braking, exterior design, interior comfort and function, application of technology, off-pavement handling and capability, fuel efficiency, and value.
A moderate off-road course with bumps, ruts, gravel and tight turns was created for vehicles in the first four categories. Vehicles entered in the Off-road Class competed on a much more difficult course designed specifically for evaluating axle articulation, approach angles, 4x4 technology, and general ability to soldier on regardless.
Both off-road courses also included lots of mud. I've participated in 17 Mudfests, and have loved them all. But too much rain, or no rain and therefore no mud, cuts into the fun. For Mudfest 2013, conditions were ideal: some rain before the event and some rain overnight during the event – ensuring plenty of mud – but mainly dry skies and even full sunshine while we drove and tested.
As it is every year, competition was fierce, with near ties in a couple of categories. But the scoring system prevents ties by having all drivers list their first, second and third choice in every category.
And now for a wince-worthy cliche: The envelope, please.
The category winners are:
- Compact Class: 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport AWD 2.0T
- Luxury Compact Class: 2013 Acura RDX AWD Tech
- Family Class: 2014 Subaru Forester 2.0XT Premium CVT
- Luxury Class: 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland
- Off-road Class: 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon 10th Anniversary 4x4

"We were looking for a charity that served as many people as possible, and this one looked perfect," said Jason Hope. That charity is Medecins sans Frontieres, or MSF, an organization of 26,000 doctors engineers, and others that provide a number of different support services throughout the world. An internationally recognized charity, MSF takes in 80% of its money from private donors and 20% fro various governments and corporations, for a total of roughly $400 million. That aid goes to providing various aid related to endemic diseases in third-world countries; it ranges from direct medical aid to helping set up water purification sites.
MSF, also known as "Doctors Without Frontiers" in The United States and Canada, is headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland. Formed in 1971 with the belief that everyone is entitled to medical care regardless of race, gender, politics, or religion. It is divided into five operational offices and 19 sections, officers of which meet once a year in the Sweden headquarters. Between them international operations in more than 60 countries are organized; this includes day-to-day operations as well as emergency situations. Because of its reputation it can quickly organize with local emergency organizations to coordinate its assistance as needed.
While it does provide emergency assistance as needed, it is better known for its day-to-day operations. "We were impressed by some of the heroics performed getting aid to those in need," said Jason Hope. While most sites tend to be almost boring, they have helped some of the hotspots in the world. This means having to deal with insurgent forces, pirates, and others willing to shoot anyone coming into their territory. Some doctors have been known to use their own vehicles in order to get into some areas; some doctors are licensed with their own planes and are more than willing to use them to bring aid to difficult to reach areas.
However, it bears noting that they do more than provide mere medical aid. MSF is out to help combat disease and sometimes that requires more than just medical aid. it also provides sanitation engineers to help set up water purification sites as well as proper sanitation. There is good reason that it has won the Nobel and Seoul Peace Prizes, as well as general consultancy with the United Nations; it is willing to go above and beyond to see that the job gets done. "We are proud to contribute to their work," said Mr.Hope.

Similar to a bilbo, a pidgeon was a character during games of AD&D who wasn't given much chance of survival. What seperated a bilbo from a pidgeon was not bad luck but a staggeringly poor performance during combat. Custom dictates that other players must coo repeatedly when a pidgeon is trying to attack someone.

However this iron makes curling so easy! It really helps that they include the heat glove- you'll need it. This curls fast and makes the curls last! Plus it's a great price.posted Feb 28, 2011Link to this post
JillSan Diego,CAPerfect And Easy Waves!I have been wanting to purchase a clip-less curling iron for some time, and I was really excited to use the product when it came!
I have to say.. it is so EASY to use, and I am able to achieve the look of beachy waves in no time! The clip-less design is so nice, and you don't get those clip marks at the ends from using a traditional curling iron.
I trusted the Jose Eber name, and it really has not let me down! I would definitely recommend this product to someone who is looking for that great wave look and a clip-less curling iron.posted Feb 26, 2011Link to this post -

LoriHairMedium BrownColor Treated HairFine or Thin HairFantastic!This curling iron is truly fantastic! I have very long, fine, resistant, stick straight hair and I have never ever found a curling iron, flat iron, or hot roller that has been able to hold a curl or wave for longer than a couple of minutes. I've tried everything from drugstore low end to salon quality high end and nothing has worked until this. Not even a stylist friend of mine was able to hold a curl in my hair.
Usually by the time I finish curling all my hair, the curls I started with are almost flat, with or without hairspray, but this curling iron holds even without hairspray for me! It's been 2 hours since I initially curled my hair and the curls still look the same. I feel like god has touched my hair through this curling iron! haha. Thank you thank you thank you folica and jose eber! this is literally the first time in my life that I have ever had anything but stick straight hair for longer than 10 minutes!posted Jan 5, 2011Link to this post -
Mirelle B.HairDark BrownNormal HairAwesome Product!!I was researching all day and finally decided to buy the 19mm curling iron. I have thick medium lenght hair and didnt know which size to get. The 19mm is great and it takes only 30-40 min to do my whole head! It is easy to use and the results are amazing! It creates beautiful looking curls that stay for days! I love doing my hair and having it done for the next day because the curls will fall a little bit which gives you a wavy look. If you are looking for a clipless curling iron i would highly reccommend this one. Depends on how long and thick your hair is, is what i would base your decision on which size barrel to get!posted Jan 4, 2011Link to this post

DarianneHairPlatinum BlondeNormal HairFine or Thin HairPerfect*I have thin blonde straight hair and no curling iron would hold a curl in my hair without using loads of hsirspray. Finally I tried this curling iron from a friend and I loved it so much. It holds the curls all day and without hairspay. It doesnt burn my hair or make it frizzy. The iron itself is very hot and I got multiple burns from it so be careful when using it. But overall this curling iron is amazing! :)posted Dec 22, 2010Link to this post

Credit Score Under 600? New Rules Make That Loan Unlikely
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- If you were wondering whether your low credit score qualified you for a home or car loan, the U.S. government has an answer for you:
"Sorry, pal."
That's basically the response from the Federal Reserve in its Senior Loan Officer Opinion Survey released this week.
The report, which surveys credit and lending professionals from more than 90 global financial institutions, measures bank loan activity to households and businesses over the past 90 days.
The survey did see a significant rise in residential mortgages, auto loans and commercial real estate loans. It also notes that lending standards for commercial real estate loans lightened over the past three months, but standards for residential home loans remained unchanged.
On the credit score front, the good news from the Federal Reserve report was that lending standards for FHA-approved loans stood at 2006 levels, but only for consumers with sterling credit.
For those consumers with credit scores below 660, the news wasn't so positive. The report notes that borrowers with scores lower than 660 had "tightened."
Additionally, the report notes that:
- Most home refinancing loan applications were linked to the Home Affordable Refinance Program, and that a "significant portion of HARP 2.0 applications were expected to be completed."
- A "modest" number of banks reported "an easing of standards on credit card and auto loans."
- Demand for "most other loans" remained stable over the 90 days.
But it's the credit score issue that really stood out in the Federal Reserve survey:
A pair of special questions asked banks to compare their bank's standards for approving an application for an FHA-insured purchase mortgage for a borrower with a given FICO score with the standards that prevailed at their bank in 2006. Two-thirds of banks reported that their bank was about as likely to approve an application for an FHA mortgage from a borrower with a FICO score of 660 as they were in 2006. For a borrower with a FICO score of 620, a small majority of banks reported that they would be less likely to approve the loan under their current lending policies, and for a FICO score of 580, nearly three-fourths of respondents indicated that they would be less likely to approve such a loan using their current standards.
When asked what really persuaded banks to stiff-arm low FICO-score borrowers, lenders pointed to the possibility of "delinquent mortgages" -- a sure sign banks are well over their penchant for approving home loans for borrowers of all credit score stripes - a big contributor to the housing bust of the past four years, economists say.
Consumers with low credit scores can't exactly say they are surprised by banks' reluctance to grant them loans. But seeing the official imprint of the Federal Reserve, under the banner of the U.S. government, isn't going to make them feel any better.

Loc: Netherlands, the Hague Ehmm.. it ìs important to know what produces or evoques the sound.
Is 'boing' not an interjection? We have a 'boink' and use it when people, specially children, bump their head, or when they drop a heavy object. What does 'ding'?

Loc: Vermont a bell goes "ding". a metal spring goes "boing". boink the way you use it would be bonk for me, and not really an onomatopoeia._________________________

It'll be fascinating to see what applications arise to take advantage of this. I have a Wacom tablet with multiple devices - I remember seeing a demo showing someone using the mouse and a pen to manipulate an object simultaneously. I could see Blender getting some interesting controls (particularly in Sculpt mode).
Beyond that, I wonder what desktop paradigms will change if users have easy access to two or more devices. The laptop I'm using right now has mouse joystick and touchpad, so it could immediately make use of two pointers. Stretching windows is an obvious application but I'm sure that there are plenty of other ways of using two pointers more effectively. After all, we all lust after that system from Minority Report!

2014 promises to be a challenging and exciting year for sustainability within the SAA Group and you, our passengers, can rest easy in the knowledge that the airline you've chosen is flying in the most responsible manner possible, says SAA's Group Environmental Affairs division PAST SUCCESS 2013 was a very successful year in SAA's continuing sustainability drive with the establishment of a biofuel programme, a recycling programme, an Environmental Management System, sustainable procurement policy development, partnerships with the WWF, the Boeing Company and others, as well as a continued seat on the International Air Transport Association (IATA) Environment Committee. SAA was also accepted into the Sustainable Alternative Fuel Users Group (SAFUG) charged with producing environmentally sustainable biofuels. STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES Going forward, SAA's implementing an increasingly ambitious programme in order to accelerate the move towards becoming the most sustainable airline in the world. Over the next few years, it's targeted numerous bold initiatives designed to reduce its impact on the environment, from continuing operations emissions. Due to the fact that – unlike other modes of transport – airlines can't change to alternative sources of propulsion or energy, liquid fuels that offer the required energy densities and low freeze points are here to stay for the foreseeable future. One of the only ways to effectively reduce this impact is to introduce low-carbon biofuels that offer the same chemical properties as Jet A1 fuel, but with a fraction of the carbon value. For this reason, SAA will continue to aggressively pursue a sustainable biofuel programme.
SAA is focusing on attaining the IEnvA Stage 2 and CORE accreditations that form the basis of a comprehensive Environmental Management System. This system addresses critical sustainability concerns such as water usage and wastage, emission measurements, reduction and reporting, reduction of waste and increased recycling, sustainable procurement practices and continued operation efficiency measures, among many other factors. SAA will continue its Voluntary Carbon Offset Programme and switch to a South African project which generates carbon credits that can be offset against a passenger's journey. Only verified credits are used and the programme is administered independently by IATA. SAA's low-cost subsidiary airline, Mango, joins the programme this year. Other subsidiary companies taking meaningful sustainability steps include Airchefs, the group's catering division, which is targeting the title of Greenest Airline Caterer in Africa this year and SAA Technical, which will be gearing up for the IEnvA CORE+ programme. In order to assess the impact of these initiatives, SAA will comprehensively measure and report on the group's carbon footprint and introduce other action plans to reduce this, including pursuing the quest for clean, renewable energy. IN 2013 SAA WAS GRANTED IATA ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT (IENVA) STAGE 1 STATUS AND IS ONE OF THE FIRST AIRLINES IN THE WORLD TO OFFICIALLY SIGN UP TO THE IENVA PROGRAMME.

Australian legal action considered over kava ban
A group called the Australia Kava Movement is considering legal action in the High Court after being told it couldn't serve kava as a ceremonial drink at a major festival this weekend.
The cultural exemption request for kava to be used for traditional ceremonies at the multicultural event in Canberra has been denied.
Police have warned that selling, supplying or donating kava at the festival could lead to a five year jail term.
A spokesperson for the movement, Siosiua Lafitani Tofua'ipangai, who is from Tonga, says they want to go to court because stopping the drinking of kava as part of a cultural event is discriminatory and unfair.
"We are not going to the multicultural festival, because we only go there to promote our kava, that's the thing that we can do. Some of us are not dancers or we are not monkey performers to entertain people here, but with kava it's excluded."
Siosiua Lafitani Tofua'ipangai says many Pacific people still drink kava in the traditional way, despite tough restrictions on its use and importation to Australia.

Officials: Suspect described plot before Miranda
Thursday - 4/25/2013, 5:00am EDT
Associated Press
BOSTON (AP) -- The surviving suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings acknowledged to the FBI his role in the attacks but did so before he was advised of his constitutional right to keep quiet and seek a lawyer, U.S. officials said Wednesday.
Once Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was read his rights on Monday, he immediately stopped talking, according to four officials of both political parties who were briefed on the interrogation but insisted on anonymity because the briefing was private.
After roughly 16 hours of questioning, investigators were surprised when a magistrate judge and a representative from the U.S. Attorney's office entered the hospital room and read Tsarnaev his rights, the four officials and one law enforcement official said. Investigators had planned to keep questioning him.
It is unclear whether any of this will matter in court since the FBI says Tsarnaev confessed to a witness and U.S. officials said Wednesday that physical evidence, including a 9 mm handgun and pieces of a remote-control device commonly used in toys, was recovered from the scene.
But the debate over whether suspected terrorists should be read their Miranda rights has become a major sticking point in the debate over how best to fight terrorism. Many Republicans, in particular, believe Miranda warnings are designed to build court cases, and only hinder intelligence gathering.
Christina DiIorio Sterling, a spokeswoman for U.S. Attorney Carmen Ortiz, said in an email, "This remains an ongoing investigation and we don't have any further comment."
Before being advised of his rights, the 19-year-old suspect told authorities that his older brother, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, only recently had recruited him to be part of the attack, two U.S. officials said.
The CIA, however, named Tamerlan to a terrorist database 18 months ago, officials said Wednesday, an acknowledgment that will undoubtedly prompt congressional inquiry about whether investigators took warnings from Russian intelligence officials seriously enough.
The U.S. officials who discussed the terrorist database and other details of the investigation are in addition to those who discussed the Miranda warning. They were close to the investigation and insisted on anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the case with reporters.
Tamerlan Tsarnaev, whom authorities have described as the driving force behind the plot, was killed in a shootout with police. Dzhokhar is recovering in a hospital from injuries suffered during a getaway attempt.
Authorities had previously said Dzhokhar exchanged gunfire with them for more than an hour Friday night before they captured him inside a boat covered by a tarp in a suburban Boston neighborhood backyard. But two U.S. officials said Wednesday that he was unarmed when captured, raising questions about the gunfire and how he was injured.
More than 4,000 mourners at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology paid tribute to a campus police officer who authorities say was gunned down by the bombing suspects.
Among the speakers in Cambridge, just outside Boston, was Vice President Joe Biden, who condemned the bombing suspects as "two twisted, perverted, cowardly, knockoff jihadis."
Investigators have said the brothers appeared to have been radicalized through jihadist materials on the Internet and have found no evidence tying them to a terrorist group.
Dzhokhar told the FBI that they were angry about the U.S. wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and the killing of Muslims there, officials said.
Dzhokhar's public defender had no comment on the matter Wednesday. His father has called him a "true angel," and an aunt has insisted he's not guilty.
Investigators have found pieces of remote-control equipment among the debris and were analyzing them, officials said. One official described the detonator as "close-controlled," meaning it had to be triggered within several blocks of the bombs.
That evidence could be key to the court case. And an FBI affidavit said one of the brothers told a carjacking victim during their getaway attempt, "Did you hear about the Boston explosion? I did that."
Officials also recovered a 9 mm handgun believed to have been used by Tamerlan from the site of a Thursday night gunbattle that injured a Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority officer, two U.S. officials said.
The officials told the AP that no gun was found in the boat. Boston police Commissioner Ed Davis said earlier that shots were fired from inside the boat.
Asked whether the suspect had a gun in the boat, Davis said, "I'm not going to talk about that."
Kurt Schwartz, director of the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency, did respond to the report.
"Within half a mile of where this person was captured, a police officer was shot. And I know who shot him." Schwartz said. "And there were three bombs that went off, and I know where those bombs came from. ... To me, it does not change anything. This guy was captured alive and will survive. True or not true, it doesn't change anything for me."

Vertigo: 2005/06
Grammys Rehearsal, Los Angeles
Woke at 6am, which in one sense was two hours before I went to bed. Jet lag. its not just the sleeplessness, its the way your entire consciousness compacts to a tennis-ball-sized pocket of hyperactive alertness inside your head. But you cant open your eyes and the whole of the rest of your body slumps into an inoperative dead weight. Forced myself up at about 8am and went for a swim in the pool as sunshine filtered through the branches of lemon trees. Jet lag notwithstanding, its not all bad out here.
More reunions preceded a group of us heading down to the Staples Center for soundcheck and camera blocking of the Grammys show for tomorrow. Whilst driving down in the van, Suzanne kept us amused by exhibiting what is certainly the most over the top party invitation I have ever seen. As with the Oscars, theres enormous competition both on & off the field and the perceived status of the various after-show parties carries much kudos. The invitation in question was to the party of Mariah Carey and Jermaine Dupri and took the form of a small purple velvet sack. Inside was a silver casket engraved with their autographs, which opened to reveal a somewhat oversized cellphone. The cellphone was a spectacular new 3G style, opening lengthways to reveal a keyboard, LCD screen and tiny pair of speakers. On opening, the thing woke up and played a music video of Mariah and Jermaine personally inviting us to the party, with an instruction to hit the redial button for an immediate connection to RSVP. Oh, and by the way, keep the phone. Bruce immediately tried calling Australia but sadly at that point we apparently hit the outer limits of their hospitality.
The Staples Center was the customary scene of carnage that accompanies an attempt to facilitate 40 global music legends simultaneously but all seemed vaguely in hand. The band are performing Vertigo into One, with Mary J. Blige joining U2 for the second song. The video sequences wed made in London were loaded into the machines and looked good. Vertigo uses the op art graphics from the tour whilst One uses the word ONE translated into several different languages, culminating in Coexist. All was going swimmingly until the projectionist pulled me to one side. He happened to be Israeli and felt obliged to point out that the three letters in Hebrew text for One were in running in reverse order. Bugger. I spent about half an hour soliciting other opinions on the matter, putting the word out for every Hebrew speaker in the building to come and take a look. The Grammys producer, Ken Erlich, was trying to convince me that the way I had it written translated into Hebrew as 'ass', but I like to think he was just winding me up. Consequently, my afternoon went to hell, in a rush to find a local facility to do a quick re-edit. This I did and mercifully the place was able to give me some time right away. Perhaps my urgent tone on the telephone helped ('Hello, my name is Willie, I work with U2 and I have a Hebrew Video Crisis')
Soundcheck and camera blocking was all a bit of a shambles to be honest, but we figured out what we needed to do to fix it (aside, obviously, from removing the word 'ass' from the video screens) and we have another run through in the morning to make it right. On a day like this the principle obstacle is the time scale: with only an hour or so on stage to build the perfect show it becomes an incredible adrenaline rush. This, plus the fact that the production is in the hands of a team who - though very willing - have a very great deal else to achieve outside our five minute slot.
Sorting my Hebrew Video Crisis took longer than Id imagined (why is this not a surprise?) so I didnt get back to the hotel till almost 9pm. Managed to scarf some food down prior to the arrival of some friends Id invited over for drinks, including a portion of fellow-Grammy-nominees, the Kronos Quartet. Once Id calmed down a little and fought off a full-on assault of jet lag it turned into a very pleasant evening, sitting on the hotel terrace, enjoying music coming from a neighbouring party hosted by the singer of a well known Irish rock band.

So I've held out on pre-ordering this thing because there was no eta on Linux support. Now they bring it but they shun any distro not based off Ubuntu. Is it going to be one of those issues where they don't allow repackaging or anything? I know Ubuntu is popular but only targeting one distro would be like building a Windows app that only installs on Windows XP unless you repackage it.
It feels like companies understand that there is a market for Linux but they don't understand Linux and just throw shit against a wall hoping it sticks and makes people happy.

Gene Editing in Human Embryos

We, both in the church and in broader society, need to think carefully together about how new technology should be used, even as we give thanks for the fruitfulness of modern science, medicine, and technology.
The word evolution can be used in many ways, but in biology, it means descent with modification. In other words, small modifications occur at the genetic level (i.e. in DNA) when a new generation descends from its parents. Over many generations these modifications can result in significant differences from the ancestral population.
The more research that is done on DNA, the more evidence we find that all life is related.
If, according to evolutionary theory, the human species has evolved from non-human ancestors over the course of hundreds of thousands of years, how might we understand humans as uniquely bearing the image of God?
From geology to biology to research into the origin of life itself, the power of water shows the faithfulness and creativity of our Creator.
James Kidder explains how a stunning fossil discovery affects our understanding of human evolution.
Is Christianity anti-science? Can Christians be good scientists? Is science the only source of true knowledge? Pastor Dave Gustavsen of Jacksonville Chapel addresses these issues.
Jim Stump explores the meaning of the Lenten season from the perspective of evolutionary creation.
Evolution is a challenging subject to consider in light of biblical faith, so it is often easier to ignore or reject it than to engage in meaningful discussion about the topic. Yet considering evolutionary creation has important benefits for Christians both in our relationship with the Creator, and in our relationships with other people—both believers and non-believers.
St. Thomas Aquinas helps us understand how the image of God in man might have developed through evolution.
We as Christians cannot claim that the world belongs to God and at the same time distrust the systematic study of it.
Because reliance upon experts cannot be eliminated, the central question for Christians today is not "should I believe scientific experts?" but "which scientific experts should I believe?"
I've always thought of the sense of smell as a more intimate sense than most other senses. For in smelling, the thing that we smell becomes almost a part of us.

How does social context affect what Americans believe about science and religion, especially in regards to human origins? A new BioLogos-funded survey reveals the factors influencing the beliefs.
Science is an honest and noble pursuit, evidence of human intellect and curiosity, and to turn away from these is to deny a very important part of who God created us to be in the first place.

Paul McVeigh vs James Saville
Ali Arish vs Danny Mitchell
Fraser Opie vs Anth Taylor
Richie Downes vs Jason Ball
Scott Askham vs Jack Marshman
Actually wish I had the budget to make some of these fights happen
Couple of good scraps, Mcveigh is at Flyweight now so that fight probably wouldn't happen, and Scraps isn't training I don't think (but ask Jay), Ali vs Danny could be a good fight, think Marshman would come too soon for Askham who's coming of a win against a last minute stand in. The other two fights are pretty cool fights as well.
I still want to see:
McVeigh vs Seery (as Seery is ranked #2)
Whiteford vs McGregor
Cant see why Marshman would be too soon hes fighting Matt Howard next who has the same record as marshman has he not? Didnt actually know that McVeigh had dropped down to flyweight.
Matt Howard just lost to Lee Chadwick but I think they're 11-1 and 10-1 yes. When is Askham fighting Howard?
Scraps is fighting at Fight UK November 17th against Martin Sheridan (6-1), but yeah, McVeigh is going to fly anyway.
Some of those would definitely be cool - Ali isn't an attractive prospect for anybody given his style, but he's a very good fighter.
Scott gets a decent test against Matt Howard at M4TC in December! Marshman has fought a lot better guys than Howard has to be fair - it's a great matchup for both guys right now I think, and stylistically too.
Edit - I'll add my domestic wishlist top 5 for now:
Turner vs. McGregor
Warburton vs. Sinclair
Gjoka vs. Hyslop
Doolan vs. Brum
Mitchell vs. Pendred II
Oh, and Stav vs. Wain for some hardcore heavyweight action.

So i will say this apparently you do not understand the theory and development of WWII submarines or Nuke Powered Submarines .
It has become apparent that you believe you know more about submarine's then the people who design and build them.
You say " my most respected mentor is Reickover " if that were ture then you would answer the challenge that was put to you by Skip.
Everyone knows that if Rickover decided something then he went ahead and proved it and back it up with facts and not assumptions and showed it to the world for everyone to see.
Dave in my oppenion all you are looking for is a pat on the back and some to say hay how great your are, next thing I see is you spent a great amount of time developing something that you feel works for you and now you want to get paid for it even if the people do not agree with you.
Last but not least this sounds like just another sales pitch from you to get the new people in the hobby that really don't fully understand the principles of building Rc Submarines yet to buy your product.
If it is not a sale pitch then prove Skip and everyone wrong or just simple concide to the people and be quiet.
Just my oppinion and no one elses Dave
