From climate change to peak oil and food insecurity, our societies are confronted with many serious challenges that, if left unresolved, will threaten the well-being of present and future generations, and the natural world. This website is dedicated to discussion of those challenges and potential solutions based on scientific evidence and scholarly analysis.Our goal is to provide a platform for re-examining some of the assumptions we make about our technological, social and economic systems. The posts on this site are generally written by domain experts, specialists and scholars with an interest in these problems and we hope they will generate informed and constructive debate. We will archive seminal papers and posts for future reference.Want to stay informed? Subscribe to our Twitter and RSS feeds or Share us on Facebook.
There are two articles in Psychological Science that appeared online today: The first article by Ruth Dixon and Jonathan Jones presents an alternative analysis of two papers that I published with colleagues in 2013 on the role of conspiracist ideation in the rejection of science. The second article is a rejoinder to Dixon and Jones and is authored by me together with Gilles Gignac and Klaus Oberauer.
The revelation of the "cash for comments" that may have turned Dr. Soon into a mercury expert has highlighted the potentially pernicious role of funding from vested interests in science. (Non-Australian readers who are not familiar with the "cash for comments" saga will find it explained on Wikipedia).
"In 1954 the tobacco industry paid to publish the 'Frank Statement to Cigarette Smokers' in hundreds of U.S. newspapers. It stated that the public's health was the industry's concern above all others and promised a variety of good-faith changes. What followed were decades of deceit and actions that cost millions of lives"—so reads the opening paragraph of a recent peer-reviewed paper on the history of how Big Tobacco "played dirty" by injecting lavish amounts of money into a public-relations campaign aimed at undermining the scientific evidence linking tobacco smoke to adverse health impacts.
Our paper, entitled "The effect of framing and normative messages in building support for climate policies", was recently published in the open-access journal PLoS ONE. The paper reports a media analysis of the framing of Australia's carbon pricing scheme along with two studies exploring approaches to building public support for reducing emissions. The abstract for the paper reads as follows:
After being rumored for some time, the E.U. has now abolished the post of Chief Scientific Adviser. I have been following this from a distance, and although there may be some nuances that I am unaware of, my first reaction is that I am in agreement with Mark Lynas, namely that
Air travel shows robust and sustained growth of 4 to 5% per year, and Airbus anticipates that air traffic will continue to grow at just under 5% annually.
Naomi Klein spoke in Oxford a few days ago on invitation of COIN, the Climate Outreach Information Network in the UK. Her talk was in the Sheldonian Theatre, the official ceremonial hall of the University of Oxford—a ceremonial building indeed that added much to the enjoyment of the evening. Naomi drew a large crowd—of more than 800, so I have been told—and the event was very interesting indeed.
Update 3 October 11:33: Apparently there are two versions of the AP story, the earlier of which contained no mention of the Australian heatwave. This information was revealed by Seth Borenstein in a Twitter exchange which is recorded here. If The Australian relied on the earlier version, they would not have removed anything, and the remainder of this post is therefore irrelevant to their reporting in this instance. We now look forward to The Australian updating their AP report to reflect the elements that are of such obvious importance to Australia.
In Australia there has never really been a debate about the merits of particular policy instruments available to governments – price-based or quantity-based ones – to mitigate the effects of climate change.
Having been challenged by Shapingtomorrowsworld's Stephan Lewandowsky, the Director of the Cabot Institute has risen to the challenge. Full details and the video are here, and the screenshot below provides an idea of the size of the event:
The Arctic is in a death spiral:
The Guardian carried an interesting and incisive piece yesterday under the headline "Libertarian ideology is the natural enemy of science." From gun control to health care to climate change, there are indeed many arenas in which scientific evidence clashes with libertarian (and conservative) worldviews: To illustrate, even though the data show that if you are a victim of an assault, you are between 4 and 5 times more likely to be fatally shot if you had a gun available than if you didn't have a gun, this evidence is generally dismissed by American libertarians and conservatives. They also dismiss the fact that after Australia introduced stringent gun control in 1996, accelerated declines in firearm deaths were observed.
"Uncertainty, uncertainty, uncertainty … so why should we bother to act?"
Has global warming "stopped"? Do models "over-predict" warming? There has been much recent talk in the media about those two questions. The answer to the first question is a fairly clear "no." Global warming continues unabated.
Updated below: 17 April 2014
Frontiers has issued a further statement on the retraction of our paper "Recursive Fury" (available at uwa.edu.au/recursivefury). This statement is signed by their editor in chief. It cannot be reconciled with the contractually agreed retraction statement signed by the journal and the authors on 20th March.
What constitutes legitimate analysis of speech?
The journal Frontiers retracted our "Recursive Fury" paper on 21 March. Frontiers withdrew Recursive Fury due to legal fears, not academic or ethical reasons. The paper—probably the most widely-read article ever published by Frontiers—can now be found at uwa.edu.au/recursivefury.
The journal Frontiers retracted our "Recursive Fury" paper some time ago not for academic or ethical reasons but owing to legal fears. The paper can now be found at uwa.edu.au/recursivefury because the University of Western Australia has come to a different risk assessment and sees no reason not to host the paper.
One of my most widely read papers, "Recursive Fury", was recently retracted by the journal Frontiers even though they found no academic or ethical problems with the paper. The reasons underlying this decision are outlined here and here.
Some 18 months ago I published a paper with colleagues Oberauer and Gignac that reported a survey of visitors to climate blogs which established a small, but significant, association between the endorsement of conspiracy theories and the rejection of several scientific propositions, including the fact that the earth is warming from greenhouse gases. The effects reported in that paper have since been replicated with a representative sample of Americans. No scholarly critique of either paper has been submitted for peer review to any journal to date.
Around the world 'development' is robbing tribal people of their land, self-sufficiency and pride.
This article by Suzanne Goldenberg in The Guardian caught my attention because it points to another potential source of violent conflict from climate change, namely the depletion of water in some parts of the world. To quote from her article:
[8.2.14: Update below] This new type of post, identified by the icon at the right, is intended to draw attention to interesting articles in the scientific literature. I came across an article by Valerie Mueller and colleagues in Nature Climate Change that examined the effects of weather extremes on migration within Pakistan. This research attracted my attention because it meshes nicely with our recent work on climate change and the risk of conflict. Although our work focuses in particular on how misinformation contributes to exacerbating those risks, any evidence for the linkage between extreme weather events and potential conflict triggers is of interest to us.
Australia is home to The Australian, a flagship product of Rupert Murdoch's stable of media organs. Although The Australian is technically a broadsheet, it sadly has a track record of distortion and misrepresentation when it comes to climate reporting.
The "97%" blog at The Guardian was generous enough to run a piece by me on the similarities and dissimilarities between the media coverage in the lead-up to the invasion of Iraq in 2003 and the current reporting of climate change. There is no point in reiterating the piece here, but it may be worthwhile to point to the underlying scholarly article that appeared in American Psychologist as part of a special issue on peace and conflict resolution. Sadly, the journal article is behind a paywall, but I believe that I am entitled to email it to interested parties upon request.
Further authors: Gerard Hastings and Linda Bauld, University of Stirling
On Wednesday, Australia's independent Climate Change Authority (CCA) released the Targets and Progress Review Draft Report. The new Liberal government plans to abolish the CCA, and the legal requirement to set an emissions target, as part of legislation to repeal the former Labor government's carbon price. Labor is now reportedly debating whether to negotiate on the bills, but at present Labor continues to defend the existence of the CCA and a cap on emissions. CCA is conducting the Review in accordance with existing law, but acknowledges the Government's plans to replace the carbon price with an Emissions Reduction Fund, arguing that advice on selecting an emissions target remains relevant regardless of the chosen policy mechanism.
The monthly newsletter of the Association for Psychological Science (APS) contains two articles that examine the way in which "inconvenient" scientists are being attacked, both within the discipline of psychology and beyond.
Human beings have been fighting each other in organized warfare since time immemorial. The 20th Century has often been characterized as one of the bloodiest ever. Does this mean that war is inevitable? Will human beings continue to slaughter each other on a large scale? |

Activities of chromite in multicomponent spinels with compositions similar to those of H chondrites were experimentally determined by equilibrating Pt-alloys with spinel at known temperature and fO_2. Our results are consistent with predictions based on the spinel solid solution model incorporated into the MELTS program. Therefore, we combined literature formulations for the activities of components in spinel, the ferromagnesian silicates, and alloys with measured and literature (bulk alloy) compositions of the meteoritic phases to constrain T-fO_2 conditions for the H-group chondrites Avanhandava (H4), Allegan (H5), and Guareña (H6). Log10fO2 values based on the assemblage of olivine + orthopyroxene + metal are 2.19–2.56 log units below the iron-wüstite (IW) buffer for any equilibration temperature between 740 and 990 °C, regardless of petrographic type. Only lower limits on fO_2 could be determined from spinel + metal equilibria because of the extremely low concentrations of Cr in the alloys of equilibrated H chondrites (≤3 ppb). Log10fO_2 values required by spinel + metal equilibria are inconsistent with those for olivine + orthopyroxene + metal if equilibration temperatures were at or above those inferred from olivine-spinel thermometry. This probably indicates that the closure for spinel + metal equilibria occurred under retrograde conditions at temperatures below ∼625 °C for Allegan and Guareña and below ∼660 °C for Avanhandava.

text: hucksterPulev as worked hard for this fight. He has more than once expressed interest in fighting Wlad. Pulev is Wlad's IBF mandatory, but now, it looks like Pulev will fight the winner of the Fury-Cunningham fight. Pulev-Wlad 2013! Posted March 2, 2013 9:08 amAnonymousEveryone wladimere klitchko faces is a mismatch . .dont you get it! teddy atalas saysklitchko is all hype but he wont put his guy in with the hype Posted March 1, 2013 8:13 pmseanto the klitchko haters you say its povekin who klitchko is avoiding . ok thanks I didnt know that Posted March 1, 2013 7:49 pmUnbiased Danegray : the fact is everyone is too scared fighting Wlad, they know they wont have eny chance. AlonzoI agree I'd like to see Klubrat get the title shot. The only problem I had with him was that near loss to Travis Walker, he's looked great otherwise. Posted March 1, 2013 7:00 pmAlonzoGood points, Nicolas. Holmes did fight Shavers (a difficult fight) twice–always fun to youtube the one where Shavers knocked him on his butt! I do believe some of the fighters I listed as defenses for Ali were during his first reign–I'll double check the books. I always have thought Wlad as a European version of Larry Holmes–that is as far as their stand-up, left jab fighting style. I wish Wlad would defend three to four times a year, I'd like to see him finish with about twenty defenses like Holmes. I thought Haye would be his Cooney. Not the case however, Cooney took it like a man–Haye just talked. Posted March 1, 2013 6:53 pmgray4 of dereck chisoras last 5 opponents are helnious, Haye, Vitali klitscko & fury ok officially he lost them fights but at least he is getting stuck in more than you can say for the klitscko sisters Posted March 1, 2013 6:11 pmgrayso basically they have picked the only fighter in the division who is left who is willing to fight for peanuts. the klitsckos talk about being gentleman and there legacy as champions but the fact is they will drop the belts rather than see poetkin get 25% the cheap b4stards. i think it was buncey who said the klitsckos put on events but not fights…. hence the reason they fight in germany Posted March 1, 2013 5:47 pmSREDMONDSDVC, a contender or challenger of some note… I mean if this is the best that can be done then whatever… This is NOT the first SOFT opponent its the 4th in a row!

Posted February 28, 2013 4:52 pmSREDMONDAli, has his GREAT fighters and victories on his resume.. NONE of this can vacate the SAD 4 opponents Wlad has fought in succession… A guy he knocked out before who was not beating World Class comp, 2 nobodies with seriously padded record (Wach and Pianeta) and an OLD inactive Cruiser who had been knocked out by David Haye when he was still relevant…. Woeful succession of fighters! Posted February 28, 2013 2:47 pmAlonzoAgain review Mohammed Ali's and Larry Holmes's weak opponents. Holmes: Lorenzo Zanon, Scott Ledoux, Lucien Rodriguez, Scott Frank, Marvis Frazier, David Bey and Bonecrusher(14 fights). Ali: Evangelista, Richard Dunn, Jean Pierre Coopeman, Rudi Lubbers, Chuck Wepner, small Bob Foster, Juergen Blin, Brian London. I'm sure there was a "Meatball" thrown in there somewhere's–perhaps Wepner's avatar Rocky? Posted February 28, 2013 1:32 pmAlonzoAgain review Mohammed Ali's and Larry Holmes's weak opponents. Holmes: Lorenzo Zanon, Scott Ledoux, Lucien Rodriguez, Scott Frank, Marvis Frazier, David Bey and Bonecrusher(14 fights).

Posted February 28, 2013 1:22 pmAlonzoVery true. Also no one ever brings up Larry Holmes or Mo Ali's opponents half of which were club fighters at best. Posted February 28, 2013 1:09 pmAlonzoThe Tony Thompson arguement in the last paragraph is invalid due to Tony destroying the great English Olympian whats his face. Posted February 28, 2013 1:06 pmGnomeThe world is bigger than the U.S. – Europeans will be watching Klitschko. Posted February 28, 2013 12:17 pmAnonymousSVDV, simple. Because Povetkin has a HISTORY of pulling out and postponing when the prospect of fighting Wlad arrives. Who is to say Povetkin wouldn't do so again and cost Wlad MORE valuable time, as he has previously? By fighting a voluntary in may he is GUARANTEED a fight, with the Povetkin fight being mandated before a certain date (at the end of the summer, I can't remember the exact date). In other words, Wlad is fighting this voluntary in May knowing that it's inevitable he'll have his WBA mandatory in the fight after. So, if Povetkin were to pull out again AFTER Wlad's voluntary in May, then the coward will be stripped this time, since the fight has been ordered to happen by the end of Summer at the very latest. This was a very shrewd move by Wlad. If Wlad took on Povetkin in May instead, then the russian would still have time to play with and postpone (it's in his nature). However, taking a voluntary first in may, and then Povetkin later in the summer, this has effectively pushed the russian on to the pot. If povetkin were to delay again, he'll be stripped, simple as. Wlad is merely covering his own as here, to ensure he remains active. He knows all about people messing him around and losing time (cf. Povetkin and Haye). Posted February 28, 2013 12:10 pmSREDMONDNo matter how you slice it this is a seriously out of left field, unvetted NO HOPER that Wlad is about to get in the ring with… Reality is that his last 4 defenses have been really WEAK Wach, Thompson (had already knocked him out) Pinaeta and the dreadful Mormeck… If you think guys are not going to scoff thats not remotely realistic…Do you want us to pretend these fighters have ANY clout? They are NOT even contenders for Gods sake… Posted February 28, 2013 11:59 amGnomeIf Tony Thompson was such an easy opponent, he wouldn't have knocked out David Price in the second round. Posted February 28, 2013 11:56 amAlsoIt matters not who WK fights whoever steps in to the rings will not leave same until beaten. WK is right now unbeatable and everybody knows it. Posted February 28, 2013 11:41 amSVDCMatador-there is definitely an element of truth in there, but why go from Povetkin to Pianeta if the WBA orders Pov and Wlad to fight? There was no reason to postpone the Pov fight for Wlad Posted February 28, 2013 9:44 amMatadorThey said Wlad would never hold a title again, they said he would never avenge his losses, they said he would never beat Sam Peter….etc., etc., etc. Every step of the way he thwarts the haters, but they never acknowledge they were wrong. They just make up new hates and repeat them like parrots. I guess they finally moved on from the long-standing "he's boring, so he's not a real HW champion" to the "he only fights second-rate challengers while ignoring the real contenders" line. Posted February 28, 2013 9:28 amrodPulev should take the fight with Stievene. That would be a war. Fury should take on Thompson after he beats Cunningham then he will be ready for Wlad. I want to see Wlad face Pulev and Fury 2013. It will happen Posted February 28, 2013 9:19 amMatador"You have to wonder what happened…?" Here's what happened: David Haye was the only guy with a snowball's chance, and Wlad beat him easily. What chance do the rest of them have? Who should Wlad be fighting? Save your griping for those contenders, not Wlad. They're the ones refusing to fight him. If you lose to Klitschko, that's it. He's not going anywhere, and you can't move up in weight from HW. Best to go the Povetkin route, milk being a K-contender for all it's worth without actually stepping up. Posted February 28, 2013 9:05 amjohnOh please, Jennings would have had his posterior handed to him by Klitschko just as any other boxer who was foreseen to have beaten him. Posted February 28, 2013 7:20 amwilly boyno matter who wladimere k faces some one wont be happpy . They say the guy he fighting is unworthy . If wlad wasnt the heavyweight champ it would be time for him to move up in weight .Wardis going to be in postion soon except he can move to light heavyweight Posted February 28, 2013 5:40 amSVDCI have often defended Wlad for his poor opponents lately because indeed noone better was avaialble and/or willing to step it up. But now, Povetkin was forced to fight Wlad by the WBA. Why postpone that fight if Pianeta is the best you can get? This is not good Posted February 28, 2013 5:23 amNeil(pomy)lol … who???? Has this guy slipped under the radar or is he another nobody? Posted February 28, 2013 3:43 amAnonymousNicholas im glad you corrected my spelling of Jou Louis last name it was very silly of me of couse it not spelled the same way as lennox lewis last name is spelled . And what the are you ranting about whites secertly wanted a white champ. instead of joe louis . now you know what all white people secertly thought in the 1940? I secertly thought they loved joe louis . Joe lewis did fight what they called the bum of the month WAS Joe louis ducking blk fighters as you say I never heard that before . And as far as mike tyson first 20 fights you look at the names and tell me you reconize more then a few of them .besides Joe louis lat name want Louis Posted February 28, 2013 3:29 ambrick citythe heavyweight division is piss poor, I dont see how these guys can go down in history as the best heavyweights. smh Posted February 28, 2013 3:03 amAnonymousI do not klitchko brothers, but It's their right. I surprised mandatory opponents come easy and once in two years. Some politics… This is heavyweight division, even Tony Thompson manged to KO, I couldn't believe it was possible. No Emanuel around, none to manage Klit for the fight, it can be second Corey Sanders. Let's watch. Posted February 28, 2013 2:58 amBigredWow, just read the article. This Jeff Sorby hasn't watched Pianeta at all and seems high on Jennings. Pianeta has better comp and is a better fighters. He reminds me of a HW version of Arthur Abraham how he stays in a shell defense and then tries to explode out on his opponents. I don't think Wlad will let him get out of the shell and will probably split his guard with his jab, messing up Pianeta's face. Jeff Sorby shouldn't write articles. Posted February 28, 2013 2:17 amBigredShoot… I like Pianeta. He has massive power, but this is way to early. The need to get him a little more experience at the top level. I feel they are cashing out on him Posted February 28, 2013 2:11 amAnonymousnicholas do you think wlad is ducking jennings ?if jennings wants to get a fight with wlad all he have to do is ko any american contender then banks after the ko call out wlad .In between koing contenders wlad will be happy to ko jennings also Posted February 28, 2013 12:18 amAnonymousnah, Fury will end his career someday. Posted February 27, 2013 10:42 pmseanthe small fast guys are to small for wlad( chambers ) the big strong guys are to slow(watch) its wlad hes just that that good. there was one guy who stood a chance to beat wlad. but the guys mother wouldnt let him fight wlad now the guys to old Posted February 27, 2013 10:40 pmAnonymousrod@ in my opinion he should've fought these guys now when they're still little bit green. Posted February 27, 2013 10:29 pmrodHe should have taken on Pulev and if he survived then taken on Fury but it is 2013 and I think we will see these fights this year. pulev and Fury after 1 or 2 fights will really test Wlad. Posted February 27, 2013 10:24 pmAnonymoustrue that SREDMOND Posted February 27, 2013 10:19 pmrodHmmmmmmmmmm Fury needs one or two more fights, Price….look what happened. Puvel is ready. Povetkin will never fight wlad. Helenius, Boystov both need one or two more fight. Who was left??? The big italian. Drawing with Sosnowski is never a good think, it's an easy fight but he is a big man around Wlads height and has been in with some big punchers. Should be at least entertaining. Mormeck was a far worse fight Posted February 27, 2013 10:19 pmSREDMONDWlads a tremendous fighter but let's get real he was knocked out 3 times in the prime of his life, avoiding TKO # 4 has been admirable but let's not act like he has had the smoothest career ever… Posted February 27, 2013 9:17 pmTimLets not forget that the Thompson fight was a mandatory, and that Mormeck and Wach were both top 10 ranked. Wlad's managementare playing it smart. They have mandatory fights coming up with Povetkin, Pulev, and Helenius. Fury ia t least a yr away from fighting a K-bro. Price could rebuild, but is now likely 18 months-2 yrs away from a K-bro, provided he is matched well and wins at least 2-4 fights while waiting. Arreola, shouldn't be counted out just yet either. He has power, giving him a puncher's chance against Wlad. As for Vitali, i don't seem more than a couple of more fights, against safe, yet top 20 ranked opposition ( ie., Welliver, Cameron, Tua, Minto, Meehan) Posted February 27, 2013 9:11 pmAnonymousMost "boxing fans" sound like lazy sensationalist critics who don't even watch the fights. Klitschko does not have the "new modern classic" American style of slugging it out with no discipline in the ring. Instead he's called BORING by idiots like Dana White and Scott Van Pelt for staying outside and "boxing" which is actually not only an effective technique, but the name of the sport itself. So sorry to American fans that he hasn't raped anyone, got a dui, bitten off ears, thrown fights, or been busted w drugs, instead he knocks everyone out. Isn't gonna matter who he fights for at least a couple more years. BUT in the HW division you never know until you know. Posted February 27, 2013 9:02 pmRuskullThe writer sounds a bit biased to me. Literally every sentence is bashing the choice without justifying Jennings. Also, Tyson Fury already declined a fight against Wlad if I'm not mistaken. I'm guessing the writer is a Brit……… Posted February 27, 2013 8:58 pmAnonymousI want to see wlad in a tough match with a american .but just dont seem to be any around maybe. they CAN have mayweather gain 100 lbs . or have wld fight 3 of americas top heaVYWEIGHTS AT THE SAME TIME . MIGHT GET SOME COMPETITION THEN Posted February 27, 2013 8:54 pmAnonymousUN.DANE…Spot on. Posted February 27, 2013 8:52 pmAlan PartridgeWlad is about to overtake John L. Sullivan, Jack Dempsey and Larry Holmes to become the second longest reigning HW champion of all time, i would guess he starts facing better opponents at the end of the year when he's overtaken those guys. Posted February 27, 2013 8:19 pmTell It Like It IsThe American networks aren't interested in watching their heavyweights getting embarrassed by the Ks, so they don't sign any fights. What are the Ks supposed to do? The American networks have shut them out, their only option is to continue to fight in Germany where they have a solid fan base and TV support. The fans and the TV networks there want to see fighters they know. Don't criticize the Ks for common sense. Top contenders don't want to fight the Ks they know they will be easily defeated and embarrassed. They are waiting for the Ks to age and retire. That tells you how superior the Ks are. Posted February 27, 2013 7:53 pmAnonymousWlad is a hero in germany. The people see him as their own .They will pack in to see him just the way the amricans came to see Joe Lewis with his bum of the month club. or Tyson when he was knocing out guys that werent even full time fighters Posted February 27, 2013 7:37 pmjjI'll watch if Hayden Panettiere will be at the fight. Posted February 27, 2013 5:55 pmSREDMONDJesus, where the HELL did they get thsi guy from his last 6 opponents have a record of 177-85-1, guys are in that mix that are 21-37, 23-18… He beat some OLD versions of Botha and McCall… I am SURE that the Klit syncophants will tell us that he is the next HW Champion when the Klits retire or die…This is a TERRIBLE opponent and the guy has only stopped 50% or so of his foes at HW… This is why this division is dying a SLOW painful death… Sad Posted February 27, 2013 5:55 pmAnonymousHas anybody else noticed that boxrec has Wlad down for only 50 kos when in fact he really has 51 kos? He is introduced as having 51 kos by Buffer before the Wach fight. What gives? Posted February 27, 2013 5:51 pmseranJennings better than Pianeta? I very much doubt it! Wilder? He has not beaten a single recognisable name until now. Wlad-fanGood thing he didn't fight Fury, that 6.9″ traveller-gypsy would be too much for Wlad. The next heavyweight champion. Posted February 27, 2013 5:45 pmUnbiased DaneBoxing Fan said "Damn that sucks. I want to see Wlad take on pulev, arreola, wilder or adamek….he needs to show he is a champion and quit fighting stiffs." SREDMONDWlad is facing ANOTHER scrub, its telling that his opponents these days are virtual unknowns or Cruisers… Wlad is a beast with a monster right hand but these nobodies are watering down his legacy something awful…Out of a crop of WEAK HW fighters he is turning up with guys like this dude and PED abuser Wach who was a NOBODY… HW disappoints AGAIN… Now lets hear the cheerleaders tell us how this guy is the best kept secret!! Posted February 27, 2013 5:38 pmJames RameyWlad is going to be criticized no matter who he fights. He has fought and beaten every body who is anybody in the division with the exceptions.of Vitali , Jonathan Banks and Deontay Wilder and they are all in his camp so that wont happen. Wlad is the King of the mountain and we are in for the bum of the month club for a few years at least until some other heavy weights get an interesting record. Maybe he could fight Adamek but that wouldnt really prove anything either. Posted February 27, 2013 5:20 pmBoxfan1Damn that sucks. I want to see Wlad take on pulev, arreola, wilder or adamek….he needs to show he is a champion and quit fighting stiffs. Posted February 27, 2013 5:20 pmfrankits smart for the fury people to stay away from wlad at this time if they ever want fury to reach his peak . he migt get ruined Posted February 27, 2013 5:13 pmtop hatWhy are people moaning. Knowall is right. The WBA have made the mand fight wlad v pov and that will happen this year. All this is a keep busy vol defence and the opponent for this was never going to be great, I would have liked to see fres but hey ho Posted February 27, 2013 5:06 pmWebsterIts pretty clear whats going on; Without HBO money there is no motivation for the Klistchko's to go outside of Europe for their opponents. If HBO (or Showtime) was willing to pay for a Bryant Jennings fight, it would already be scheduled. To the ticket buying crowd in Germany, Bryant Jennings carries less name recognition than Francesco Pianeta, who fought his entire career in Europe and is equally undefeated. If you want the Jennings fight, let HBO and SHO know it. Otherwise the Klitschko's will run out their careers abroad, fighting European fighters with glossy records that present no real challenge. Posted February 27, 2013 4:52 pmxiosorry, but this is nonsense, Wlad has thought against weak Thompson while he should have against strong Fury. Pal, that weak Thompson after being KO'd by Wlad easily beaten Top UK contender D. Price, who by the way is widely avoided by said Tyson Fury, who lost to hime previously in amateur times. No to say that Wlad did not even want to fight Thompson, but was forced to by the IBF. Posted February 27, 2013 4:51 pmAnonymousHe should've fought Fury, not this German-Italian featherfist. Posted February 27, 2013 4:46 pmfrankyou know a guy is pretty good when he the is the champ and contenders are ducking him . it called cleaning out the division and at heavyweight there are no more divisions to jump up . Posted February 27, 2013 4:45 pmfrankget wlad a real opponent. He will fight them, it isnt wlad fault they opponents look ok against others but when they get in with wlad they fall apart haye, thompson, .Wlad lives in germany and probally wants to fight in front of the fans who support him . Posted February 27, 2013 4:41 pmlongbowBoring, wont be watching this crap. Posted February 27, 2013 4:41 pmGym RatOh, and Pianeta is a Southpaw as well Posted February 27, 2013 4:39 pmGym RatNeither Jennings or Pianeta has fought much, but I would say Pianeta has got the better, more impressive record EASILY. I mean, you have to be either very biased or very stupid to state otherwise. First of the, Pianeta has already had double the fights. Also, WHO has Jennings beat that is even somewhat of a name other than Liahkovich? NO ONE. Jennings might have a more exciting style than Pianeta, but does that mean he's more formidable? Or course not. Pianeta, on the other hand has already tangled with man of steel Mc Call, Botha (both old veterans, yes, but in the case of Botha at least, he showed recently down in Australia that he still has some fight in him, and Pianeta won easy). The Italian has also beaten Matt Skelton via stoppage, 3 years ago when the Brit was still somewhat relevant and durable, and a few 'name trial horses' like Hawkins and Page. No, Pianeta still doesn't have a fantastic record, but based on number of fights, and who he has fought, he definitely has a more imposing resume than Jennings. And with his size (6'5″), record (undefeated) and age (28), he actually isn't a bad "voluntary" defense at all to be fair. Posted February 27, 2013 4:37 pmknowallIts not becauae povetkin has avoided him this time, WBA says it has to happen prob late summer, autum time. This is simply a keep busy fight, as poor as it is Posted February 27, 2013 4:34 pmAnonymousYou have to wonder what's happened with Wladimir. He stopped facing quality heavyweight……. really? maybe because no one ones to fight him why is it the problem with wladimir and not the opposition this author is full of shet… lol jeanning … povetkin… fury… doesn't matter to klitschko he will knock them out too just some of those guys are a little smarter and are ducking the champ. Posted February 27, 2013 3:54 pmAnonymousI agree with Mike. Povetkin was the top contender for a while but turned down his chance. Thompson is a top ten fighter, who, apparently, still has something left. Wach had a good record and good size and was a hot prospect at the time. The U.S. markets have ignored the Klitschkos so they fight in Germany where the money is. Pianeta means more there than Jennings, who is a good prospect, but not ready for the very top. Posted February 27, 2013 3:51 pmMikeTwo fights ago he KOed Tony Thompson who just KOed the top British prospect, David Price. And Mariusz Wach beat Price in the amateurs. Who has Jennings beaten to deserve a title shot? The reporter missed the real story. RTL the German network were willing to put up the money for Wlad to fight Pianetta because he's well known to the German public. On the other hand, HBO, NBC, Showtime were not willing to put up the money for Wlad to fight Bryant Jennings or any other American. If you want to play you've got to ante up and the American networks think that american fans will pay to watch midgets fight so they get away with not broadcasting the heavyweight championship. Watch it on Epix. Posted February 27, 2013 3:45 pm |

UNO Closer to Opening New Arena
A unanimous vote earlier this month by the Omaha City Council means UNO is one step closer to building a new arena.
The new space will be located southwest of 64th Avenue and West Center Road.
At the July 2nd meeting, the Omaha City Council approved a preliminary plat which gives UNO and the city permission to discuss specific zoning issues in the area.
UNO Chancellor John Christensen said the new arena will be the home for Maverick Hockey.
"We are going to be able to add financial stability to the athletic department. Currently hockey provides about 94% of the revenue. This is going to allow us to provide a lift in that regard."
Chancellor Christensen said the arena will also serve student government and organizations in terms of campus events.
It'll also be the home for commencements and convocations.
Construction of the University/Community arena is planned to start in late 2013 with an expected completion date of June 2015.

Bela Fleck to highlight IBMA's World of Bluegrass
Bela Fleck specializes in putting his banjo-playing into unusual situations, alongside everything from African ensembles to symphony orchestras.
But this fall will find him in more of a traditional setting. The International Bluegrass Music Association has announced Fleck as keynote speaker for its 2014 convention, Sept. 30-Oct. 4 in Raleigh.
"Bluegrass is like the hometown for someone like Bela," said IBMA Executive Director Nancy Cardwell. "Everyone likes to go home to visit and is proud of where they're from. Bluegrass is sort of where Bela is from, and we're happy to have him back anytime he wants to be there."
Fleck was at IBMA's Raleigh convention last year, too, performing with the North Carolina Symphony as well as on the "Epic Collaboration." He'll also play this year's all-star show, billed as "Wide Open Jam," with Sam Bush, Jerry Douglas and other top guns.
But Fleck's most high-profile slot this year will be the keynote speech to kick off the IBMA's business convention on Sept. 30.
He follows last year's keynote speaker, Noam Pikelny of Punch Brothers – another banjo player known for wide-ranging influences well beyond bluegrass.
"We look for something motivational and thought-provoking from the keynote," Cardwell said. "Some new development or important issue – maybe historical, maybe humorous. Something to get us all talking and thinking. We do seem to ask a lot of banjo players to do it. They'd probably say it's because they're a little smarter than everyone else."
In other IBMA news of a classically slanted nature, Wilkesboro trio Kruger Brothers will debut a new composition on Oct. 4 during this year's conference. Titled "Lucid Dreamer," it's a concerto commissioned by Kontras Quartet (a Chicago-based group that will accompany the piece).
"Lucid Dreamer" follows a number of other classically oriented projects by the Kruger Brothers, including 2011's "Appalachian Concerto" and 2013's "Spirit of the Rockies." Group leader Jens Kruger, reigning winner of the prestigious Steve Martin Prize for bluegrass banjo, describes "Lucid Dreamer" as a musical manifestation of being in a "controlled dream state."
"Musicians like Bela Fleck and Jens Kruger, there's no wall between what they think and what they play," said Cardwell. "Most of us have to struggle to get what's inside our head to the strings, to the air, to the audience. They're so incredibly accomplished, there's no lag time between creative thought and having it pop out."

FLICKR ALBUM: Mercado de Artesanias
Oaxaca City's Craft Market (Mercado de Artesanias) is a great place to visit. No wonder this traditional Oaxacan market is a long-time favorite for locals and visitors.
Located five blocks southwest of the Zócalo and a block southwest of the 20 de Noviembre Market, the Mercado de Artesanias is a sprawling market with entrances on J.P. Garcia and Zaragoza. It is open from 10am-8pm. Many shoppers say the prices here are better than the Benito Juárez Market.
The market is organized in a series of east-west corridors. The north end of the market has colorful wooden figures (alebrijes). The southern side has wool rugs.
FYI, it may be tricky to spot the actual number of the local (booth). If you are looking for someone in particular, just ask.
Artesanias Lucy, alebrijes #26 Bautistas, rugs #32 Pedro Mendoza, rugs #66 Concepcion Mendoza, rugs/carpets #98 Rosa María Aparecizo, jewelry
Planeta.com's Tourism and Crafts Guide examines connections among tourism, shopping and conservation.
Oaxaca's Mercado de Artesanias is documented in the Oaxaca Market Project, an initiative of Planeta.com and friends in Oaxaca. We ask visitors to print photos (seen here archived on Flickr) and give them to the vendors. This puts a new spin on the traditional 'take only photographs' mantra by giving the photos back and raising awareness and increasing purchases of traditional crafts and local food.
What might be a rushed visit becomes a search for familiar faces and seasonal products. This guide encourages you to learn about the markets before a visit. Enjoy!

Interim Charges for House Committees

Texas State Rep. Larry Phillips

This week I will discuss the interim charges recently issued to the House Committee on Business and Industry. Interim charges are the issues that the Speaker asks committees to study during the time between regular legislative sessions in order to make recommendations for legislation for the following legislative session. The charges are good indicators of what legislation the legislature will take up during the next session. Legislators rely on public input when crafting legislation, and it is important that they hear from people during the interim.
* Study the voluntary nature of workers' compensation in Texas and how it meets the needs of employers and employees.
* Review existing lien laws in Texas. Examine laws concerning the enforcement of contract liens affecting real property. Identify improvements, if any, that will enhance the certainty of title following sale, enhance ability to ensure that sales are conducted by qualified trustees, prevent unnecessary litigation, facilitate loss mitigation between borrowers and sellers, and protect the interests of homeowners, lenders and trustees. Study the imposition of mechanics' liens on automobiles and its impact on mechanics, car owners and purchasers, and lenders. Review ad valorem tax lien lending after the implementation of legislation that passed last session and the impact on homeowners, taxing authorities, mortgage lenders, and tax lien lenders. Review the procedures and powers of the Office of Consumer Credit Commissioner to ensure compliance.
* Study the impact of SB 1024 (82R) on wage theft and law enforcement's and regulatory agencies' responses to wage theft claims. Recommend changes if necessary.
* Examine the issue of misclassifying employees as independent contractors on workers, employers, income tax withholding, and the unemployment insurance system. Review current statutory deterrents and make recommendations for changes if necessary.
* Study the impact of credit card data theft and other credit or privacy information theft on Texas consumers and businesses.
* Conduct legislative oversight and monitoring of the agencies and programs under the committee's jurisdiction and the implementation of relevant legislation passed by the 83rd Legislature. In conducting this oversight, the committee should: consider any reforms to state agencies to make them more responsive to Texas taxpayers and citizens; identify issues regarding the agency or its governance that may be appropriate to investigate, improve, remedy, or eliminate; determine whether an agency is operating in a transparent and efficient manner; and identify opportunities to streamline programs and services while maintaining the mission of the agency and its programs.
The House Committee on Business and Industry can be reached at 512-463-0766. For more information on these charges or any other matter of state government, please contact my office by writing to P.O. Box 2910, Austin, TX 78768-2910 or by emailing me at firstname.lastname@example.com. My district office phone number is (903) 891-7297.

I have a number of DVDs that I've ripped into my iTunes library so that I can watch them around the house using my Apple TVs, iPads etc. Now I've upgraded my phone to a Lumia 920, I was hoping that the movies would play perfectly on the phone as they do on the other devices. However, my "letterbox" format movies get squished so that they fill the Lumia's screen. How can I get the movies to play in the correct picture format?

Ok so your asking how to beat someone user vs user, right?
Use the right stick to your advantage! Juke him out of his cleats! Making quick decisions and quick moves is really all you can do. Also, dont try to juke someone with a power back like Michael Turner or Steven Jackson. Same goes for trucking with speed backs like Sproles. Know who you have and use moves according to their skills.

Thank you for the reply, it is very helpful. Does the mirco core stiffen the feel of the entire frame or does it really only affect the top of the string bed? I thought that the Vcore 100s was definitely more flexible feeling than a PDR, which is very stiff. I don't want something that is that stiff. The head shape may irritate me, lol. I did a quick demo with the xi 100 and it was a rocket launcher. Since I didn't hit with it long due to that I'm not sure if the shape of the head would interfere with my game or not.

WordPress is a Content Management System (CMS) and blogging tool. It can be used to create websites as well as personal blogs.
For further information on what WordPress is and what you are able to do with it, please visit WordPress's website at:
How to install
Installing DreamPress
DreamHost offers a customized WordPress managed hosting, called DreamPress. It's perfect for middle-of-the-road users who need more performance than Shared hosting, but are not ready to upgrade to a VPS to personally manage their server and website.
You can read more about this upgraded service here:
Using One-Click Install
To install Wordpress at DreamHost, log into your panel and go to the goodies section at (Panel > 'Goodies' > 'One-Click Installs'):
Installing before you point your DNS to DreamHost
It's possible to set up your WordPress site before pointing your DNS to DreamHost. This setup requires that you create a dreamhosters.com subdomain. For example, if your site is named domain.com, you can add a new domain in your panel named domain.dreamhosters.com. This new site is used to access your official site before you point your DNS.
Below are the required steps to set this up:
- Add your primary domain to the panel on the (Panel > 'Domains' > 'Manage Domains') page.
- On the same page, add your dreamhosters.com subdomain to the panel.
- In the screenshot below, your dreamhosters.com subdomain would be domain.dreamhosters.com. This is setup to MIRROR your actual website on our servers named domain.com. Visit the MIRROR wiki for further details on how to configure this:
- Create a mysql hostname for this new dreamhosters.com domain in the panel at (Panel > 'Goodies' > 'MySQL Databases')
- Click the Add New Hostname button to create the hostname. It should be named something like mysql.domain.dreamhosters.com.
- Click the blue button Create this MySQL hostname now! to save.
- Using FTP, upload the contents of your primary website to our servers. Visit our FTP wiki for further details on how to upload:
- Once uploaded, edit your wp-config.php file.
- You'll see this line within the file:
define('DB_HOST', 'mysql.yourdomain.com');
- This will cause your site not to load since it will be attempting to connect to an external database.
- Change the hostname to your dreamhosters.com URL:
define('DB_HOST', 'mysql.domain.dreamhosters.com');
- Upload your database to your DreamHost account in your panel at (Panel > 'Goodies' > 'MySQL Databases'). Visit the following wiki for more information on how to import your database:
- Once uploaded, you must now update the HOME and SITE URL in your database. Log into your phpMyAdmin interface on the same MySQL Database page.
- You must use the mysql.domain.dreamhosters.com hostname you just created in order to log into your database.
- Once logged in, click your database name on the left.
- Click on your database table named wp_options. You may notice you have a different table prefix. In this example, the table prefix is wp_92tnyu_.
- Click the Browse tab on the top left.
- Edit these fields and change them to your new dreamhosters.com URL.
You can now visit the mirrored dreamhosters.com site you created to view the contents of the primary site you have uploaded to the DreamHost servers.
Modifying Upgrade Actions
By default, one-click installations are set to upgrade WordPress automatically with each major update. You will receive an email notification once an upgrade has been completed.
To change the default upgrade action for your domain, follow these instructions:
- Go to (Panel > 'Goodies' > 'One-Click Installs')) in the panel.
- The One-Click Installs page opens.
- Click the Manage Installed Applications button to view your one-click applications.
- A page appears that lists your domains with installed applications:
- Beneath the Upgrade Action column, click on the edit link.
- You'll see the following options:
- Make a selection from the following choices:
- No action: No one-click upgrades will be performed by DreamHost for this domain.
- Notify me: Only alerts you via email once a major revision update is available. No update is performed.
- Upgrade automatically: Upgrades the site and emails you automatically.
- Upgrade without notification: Upgrades the site but doesn't email you.
Manual One-Click Upgrading
If an upgrade becomes available for your site and it hasn't been performed yet, you will see a "1" in the Updates Needed column:
- Below the Actions column, you can click on the Upgrade to X.X action to upgrade your site.
- In this example, the upgrade action says Upgrade to 4.1 .
- When you click on the upgrade button, you will receive an email notification once the upgrade for your site is completed.
WordPress Automatic Updates
As of version 3.7, WordPress now features Automatic Updates. These are for minor revision updates only (for example, 4.1 to 4.1.1) .
DreamHost strongly recommends that you allow these updates to occur automatically as they usually include important security updates or bugfixes.
You can read more about this feature as well as how to disable it via the following link:
Fixing the WordPress Version Mismatch
If you have already upgraded your site via the WordPress dashboard or some other method, the WordPress version listed in your web panel may be incorrect.
To fix the mismatch, follow these instructions:
- Open the One-Click Installs page:
- Click the Sync version button to the far right of your domain.
- When you click the Sync version button, the following confirmation screen appears:
- Click the OK button.
- You will receive an email once the process is complete.
- If there is an error with the version sync process or it states that your WordPress installation is a different version than what you believe you have installed, contact support as there may be an issue with your WordPress One-Click configuration.
After you install and setup WordPress, you can then import external content. You can do this by logging into your WordPress site and going to 'Tools' > 'Import'.
Importing Content may require additional plugins depending from which platform you're importing.
Moving A WordPress Installation
If you already have a WordPress installation running on another host and you want to move it to DreamHost, please review the following wiki:

A push-pull amp i can live with
A few months ago i realised that the PX25 SETs, magical as they are, severely limit my choice of music. Great with jazz trios, chamber music and girls with guitars/pianos/nothing but socks but not quite convincing with anything demanding balls.
Push-pull seemed a possible solution but i wasn't too optimistic. In the past i've had nothing but bad luck with all the classic circuits and never really liked my own QuadII, Leak St20 and Dynaco St70. I also used to have a professionally built Williamson (Partridge iron) and a Klangfilm. Both have been tweaked ad infinum with generally low success. It was obviously time to try something very different. I heard a SET using Sovtek 2A3 and really liked the sound, ok maybe i had a bit too much wine that night, but for the asking price the Sovteks seemed really good. So i tried them in a fairly standard paraphase-splitter amp and didn't like them one bit. Out went the paraphase and in came a Lundahl LL1660/18mA. I wasn't expecting too much as reportedly it doesn't maintain perfect balance at high frequencies and rings a lot with the secondary unloaded. My ears, otoh, liked it a lot better than the paraphase. It was driven by a 5687 with a 7044 in front. Much too much gain. The 5687 alone just barely sufficed but the sound was much clearer. Another trip to the parts bin suggested a 6S45PE in place of the 5687. Now this sounded really good. Deep, solid bass; excellent dynamics and not a hint of any 'tubiness'. A separate PS for the driver stage brought even better subjective dynamics and soundstaging and replacing the cathode bypass with an 'ultrapath cap' cured the slight shrillness of the 6S45P. It is still 'work in progress' but it sounds really promising. It can play any kind of music and manages an amazing grunt in my Sonus Fabers although i only measured 12W at output. The PS certainly needs some more experimentation - Mercury or damper rectifiers, possibly CCS+VR tubes ala Lynn Olson. Maybe even a PP driver stage. PS lookinfg at the circuit i realise the grid stopper on the 6S45 is missing. PS is shared between channels. [IMG][/IMG] |

Nice work...if you can g.... I might give that bias scheme for the DHTs a try in my own 2A3 PP. Next one a monoblock? Or at the very least dedicated L/R PS for that extra tight, ultra-stable super-duper stereo image focus.... 1M gridleak on the input? No gremlin stoppers on the output valvies either? Hmmm.... Cheers,
Frank |

Otherwise, that's a good-looking schematic. Did you consider using a phase-splitting input transformer and a pair of 6C45's to drive the output stage through the LL1660? John |

Interesting thread.... I recently converted my little SET amp to Push-pull using a similar circuit (but Hammond iron, and indirectly heated triodes). Tighter bass, more power, and great overall sound.... I'm happy! I suppose using transformers and no coupling caps must help.

Analog, have you experimented with Broskie's Aikido circuit? Your driver looks to me to be passing power supply noise to your output grids. I realise the PP topology cancels some of that noise, but presumably not all. Just a thought.
How is your impression of class A push-pull some years later now? |

I have heard the 6C45pi to be hard to match, but couldn't you circumnavigate that issue with a CCS in the tails?

text: Note the bold text! Is it legal for the officer to do that? to stop you? to i.d. you? to determine if you are legally permitted to own that firearm.?

But putting aside the particular circumstances of this case.......if you're doing nothing wrong, does the LEO have the right to detain and question you?
