The Tunnel People That Live Under The Streets Of AmericaSubmitted by Diamond Dog on Wed, 04/10/2013 - 22:51
Did you know that there are thousands upon thousands of homeless people that are living underground beneath the streets of major U.S. cities?
It is happening in Las Vegas, it is happening in New York City and it is even happening in Kansas City. As the economy crumbles, poverty in the United States is absolutely exploding and so is homelessness. In addition to the thousands of "tunnel people" living under the streets of America, there are also thousands that are living in tent cities, there are tens of thousands that are living in their vehicles and there are more than a million public school children that do not have a home to go back to at night.
The federal government tells us that the recession "is over" and that "things are getting better", and yet poverty and homelessness in this country continue to rise with no end in sight. So what in the world are things going to look like when the next economic crisis hits?
When I heard that there were homeless people living in a network of underground tunnels beneath the streets of Kansas City, I was absolutely stunned. I have relatives that live in that area. I never thought of Kansas City as one of the more troubled cities in the United States.

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles seem to do ok.
So THAT'S where they are hiding!
Here in San Diego, a friend once complained about the homelessness problem, saying that when she lived in such-and-such big city to the northeast, she never saw homeless people wandering around. She attributed it to the homeless shelters being a priority in that city while not being a priority here in SD. I had figured that it didn't HAVE to be a priority here because nobody's going to freeze to death here. This article provides another option for why she never saw homeless people there.
It's so sad when these people are evicted from whatever place they choose to live in. Sure, where they're living in unsanitary, but that's no good reason to force them to try and find another place to exist. They have their reasons for being where they are.

Think about it. If you need
Think about it. If you need protection from the elements, it makes sense to shelter underground near heated pipes.
But socialism is supposed to fix this!!!
duh... what's wrong!? It ain't working!
On Tuesday, another
On Tuesday, another extravagant party will be held at the White House. It is being called "In Performance at the White House: Memphis Soul", and it is going to include some of the biggest names in the music industry...
So who will be paying for all of this?
You and I will be. Even as the Obamas cry about all of the other "spending cuts" that are happening, they continue to blow millions of taxpayer dollars on wildly extravagant parties and vacations.
Overall, U.S. taxpayers will spend well over a billion dollars on the Obamas this year. I wonder what the tunnel people that live under the streets of America think about that. http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/the-tunnel-peopl...

A LAPD spokesperson has confirmed that a temporary restraining order has been filed against Ukrainian prankster Vitalii Sediuk, who struck Pitt in the face on the red carpet. Sediuk was arrested after the incident and remains in custody, with bail set at $20,000.
SEE ALSO: Film Review: "Maleficent"
The attack occurred while Pitt was signing autographs with wife and "Maleficent" star Angelina Jolie in front of the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood. According to witnesses, Sediuk jumped security barriers to get to the 50-year-old thesp and punch him in the face.
Security guards held Sediuk and he was subsequently arrested and booked on suspicion of misdemeanor battery.
"This was an unfortunate and inappropriate incident that is being investigated by the LAPD," a spokesperson for Disney, the distributor of "Maleficent," told Variety.
Sediuk has made a reputation of pranking celebrities. Just this month, he attempted to crawl under America Ferrera's dress at Cannes. The 25-year-old also crashed the Grammys last year and groped Leonardo DiCaprio and Bradley Cooper. In 2012, he was slapped by Will Smith after Sediuk tried to kiss him during the "Men in Black 3" red carpet.

Between Riverside and Crazy Bares Its Wounds
By Tom Sellar
For Raad, Lebanon is a Gordian knot of notaries, dentists, professors, and mechanicsa principality of would-be revolutionaries, marginal characters, and heartbroken souls. Instead of the totality of war, Raad fixates on its parts. He lets us know that there were 3,641 car bombs detonated in Beirut between 1975 and 1991. In seven collages titled Notebook Volume 38: Already Been in a Lake of Fire, an invented character named Dr. Fadl Fakhouri presents pictures of cars and Arabic writing. One image reads, "Silver Volvo; August 20, 1985; 56 killed; 120 injured; 100 kg of TNT; 24 cars burned; 11 buildings burned." Raad/Fakhouri fetishizes the facts of violence in Beirut the way Henry Darger recorded the weather in Chicago. Elsewhere, he gives us the serial numbers of engines that were blown from car bombs, how far each motor flew, and where it landed.
In Hostage: The Bachar Tapes, Raad, 38, recounts what he calls the "captivity narrative" of five American hostages held in Lebanon in the 1980s, adding a fictitious Arab who describes nocturnal homoerotic encounters. In Miraculous Beginnings we see a hallucinogenic 52-second film made by Dr. Fakhouri in which he exposed a frame every time he thought the war had come to an end. It's an abstract image of lost hopes and wishful thinking. In I Only Wish That I Could Weep we see furtive views of sunsets filmed by a Lebanese army intelligence officer posted to monitor a boardwalk in Beirut.
Borges wrote about the "pleasure of useless and out-of-the-way erudition." Rather than taking pleasure in arcana, Raad's work exudes a mania for minutiae that turns melancholic and openly joyless. His art is like a detective report or a communiqué from a secret agent: Facts are related, occurrences indexed, detachment and delusion mingle with obsession.
Yet for all his pseudo-scientific esotericism and his ultra-educated post-structuralism, Raad (or at least his character) is a textbook romantic: a man in search of the miraculous, a knight-errant taken with political intrigue, social estrangement, and emptinesssomeone preoccupied with connections and affinities, real or not. As with all romantics, Raad is homesick. Lebanon for him is a refuge and nightmare, a utopia and a cult. Raad's vision of his war-torn country is part apparition, part anxiety attack, and part healing fantasy. You can almost feel the incubus of history squatting on his chest and reciting Lucian's description of the passage to the Isle of Dreams: "As we approach, it recedes, and seems to get further and further off." This is Raad's relationship to Lebanon's civil war.
As poignant as several of these pieces are, I'm not really sure Raad is an artist. He's more of a social scientist using art or examining powerwhich is fine. He mixes Joseph Beuys, Marcel Broodthaers, and David Wilson's Museum of Jurassic Technology, but there's not a lot of alchemical energy to what he does. His work is smart, doctrinaire, and poetic, but formally it's very nth generation conceptualism. You wonder if all this fictionalized fact, factualized fiction, and secret-intrigue business is even necessary. Sometimes it feels wooden and hokey. His melodramatic Bas Jan Aderlike titles and his talk about "authority" and "authorship" suggest Raad is suave but has a latent pedantic streak. Also, nearly every work here dates from between 1996 and 2000 and has been seen in international exhibitions. He needs to do some new work.
In the end, Raad submerges you in the lyrical ethos of Lebanon's 14 seasons in hell. Tellingly, he omits certain figures. The war left approximately 144,240 people dead and 197,500 wounded. Another 17,415 went missing, 1 million people left the country (including Raad's family), nearly that many were rendered refugees. Raadwho splits his time between Brooklyn and Beirut and who teaches at Cooper Unionis the opposite of the slash-and-burn artist Thomas Hirschhorn, whose show is currently up at Barbara Gladstone. Both men deal with war and memory. Hirschhorn's work grabs you by the collar and says, "Pay attention." Raad is more Machiavellian. He's like a figure in a Renaissance painting pointing to something in the picture. He stands between worlds. When this strategy works, Raad summons the plaintive spirit of heartache. When it doesn't, you just end up with paragraphs of explanation. Fortunately, it works often enough.
Saint Paint
Joe Zucker's quick-witted just-closed exhibition of muddy-colored paintings at Paul Kasmin began with an art historical wink and a scatological nod: Just inside the door was a canvas turned toward the wall, à la Magritte, with the words "My Stool" written on it. It was a fitting acknowledgement of paint's primal connection to feces, art's paradoxical public and private nature, and Zucker's philosophically wry relationship to both. Zucker's strong two-gallery show, the second part of which is still up at David Nolan, finds this stellar topographer of paint in an indexical, introspective, typically foxy mood. At Kasmin, he exhibited a series of diptychs titled Open Storage. Each work consisted of one poured monochrome abstraction next to a painting of a piece of furniture. Zucker gave us two modes of representation, two schools of aesthetic thought, and two ways of seeing the world.
The David Nolan show feels freer and less sepulchral. We see an opalescent series of paintings and watercolors collectively titled Container Ships. Each Léger-like work looks like a scratchy grid that has organized itself into a vaguely recognizable configuration. Squint and huge ships with hundreds of gigantic rolls of paper or canvas might come into focus. It's an artist's mirage or nightmare. These boats may carry this artist's life's work into the afterlife, or they may be future floating museums of Zucker's wild work. Either way, it's gripping to see an older painter openly thinking about what he might do with all the work he's made that never sold.
Applying longitudinal and latitudinal lines to the walls, Sally Smart, the Australian having her natty New York debut, turns the gallery into a walk-in cartographer's dream. We see the imagined journeys of a group of so-called "female pirate ships." These large-scale galleons are marvelous collaged visions made of canvas and clothes, among other materials, and evoke artists as wide-ranging as Kara Walker, Matthew Day Jackson, Arturo Herrera, Wangechi Mutu, William Kentridge, and Ed Ruscha. Smart may rely too heavily on projected imagery and veers a bit close to Walker and Kentridge, but she still sails into some tantalizing territory.

Respond to Review of Country Life
by greeninpink
Review: I seriously thank Country Life for being a forerunner to respectful eating in the land of meat and gulash. On that note, the food here is actually pretty tasty for being served in what can be called nothing more than a caffeteria. You get your grub buffet style (you pay by weight and its REALLY cheap, even by Prague standards), and then go sit in one of two rooms full of too-bright lights, hard benches, and long caffeteria tables. It even smells like cleaner the way HS caffeterias do. If you're grabbing food on the go, there's no better... but the atmosphere is wretched.

Come relax at the River House, our beautiful two-story cabin with breathtaking views of the river. This tranquil getaway is located on the banks of the Colorado, just minutes from historic downtown Smithville, Texas.
After you've napped on the deck, walk down through our small pecan orchard and enjoy private access to the river. Fish from the banks, or wade in and go swimming, tubing, kayaking or canoeing. In the evening, you'll have a front row seat for our lovely Texas sunsets and starry nights.
For a change of pace, stroll down Main Street and check out all the wonderful antique shops and restaurants nearby.
Many films are shot in Smithville, including Sandra Bullock's Hope Floats, as well as the upcoming film, Tree of Life, starring Brad Pitt and Sean Penn. Take a tour of all the featured locations throughout town, then come home and browse through our extensive video library.
The house is also an easy 30 minutes east of the Circuit of the Americas track, so you don't have to deal with Austin traffic. Come stay with us for Formula 1 Grand Prix, X Games and all the other great COTA events!
The River House is a great destination for birdwatchers. Come discover the many species of birds that live on the banks of the Colorado. If you're there at the right time of year, you'll even see our family of bald eagles!

Hannah Neal purchased this house in 2011
Smithville has long been one of my favorite retreats. Its easy pace and tranquil atmosphere are a great escape from the hustle and bustle of city living.
I want to thank you so much for your hospitality and for providing such a peaceful and tranquil getaway - hideaway! It truly felt like "home." Beautiful setting, beautiful home! We are already planning our next visit!
Again, thank you!
Hannah, thank you so much for a great long weekend! Your place was just right for us...convenient location, beautiful surroundings, plenty of room, comfortable, and appointed with everything we needed. We especially enjoyed being able to bring our dog along and the safety of the enclosed yard. We had her mostly on leash outside, but it was nice being able to let her out briefly as needed (as long as the chickens weren't around!). We enjoyed the rainy days and the beautiful, clear days, and the gazillions of pecans (yes, I got enough for my Thanksgiving pie!). We saw a woodpecker doing his work on a tree by the river and I managed to get some decent shots of him. The location was perfect for us: 15 minutes to Bastrop, 15 minutes to LaGrange, and a new town of Smithville to explore, too. We found a couple new scenic roads and incidentally found Bone Spirits while driving around downtown...that was a fun stop! Thanks to you for everything. We hope to be back soon!
Suzanne and Mark
Thanks again, and hope you have a good Thanksgiving! We look forward to our next stay!
This house is perfect for a little family getaway. There is plenty of room and the property is gorgeous. So much room to run around outside and the river was so nice. Everyone had such a good time, we will definitely be back.
Very beautiful!! The river and pecan grove, also everything is so green. We really enjoyed the river (be careful of current going around to second park). The home was comfortable and roomy. Be ready to climb some stairs, and quite a hike down the yard to the river. We enjoyed the exercise, and loved having our dogs with us.
...such a truly peaceful place to be in an achingly beautiful setting - the riverfront cabin is perfect for a chance to 'get away from it all' without feeling isolated or disconnected. large enough to make it fun for the whole family, intimate enough for a couple's weekend.
the various decks and views are not to be missed and there's nothing quite like sitting out watching the sun set over the colorado river with a cocktail in hand.
highly recommended!
Our small church reserved this space for a weekend retreat, and it was perfect! The house was basic and very comfortable, with plenty of room for the six people we had. Kitchen is well-stocked with cooking gear (we made cookies in the oven, as well as buying free-range eggs from the neighbor for a delicious omelette!) and dishes. Peaceful location was great for getting work done, as well as relaxation - we spent lots of time sitting on the back porch with our guitars and a glass of wine or beer, enjoying the serene surroundings. Loved the goats next door, as well! The house's owner was very responsive and helpful when we had questions - we got quick replies to our texts and emails. Wifi was good but got a little slow - probably due to having six highly wired people walk through the doors with phones, computers and ipads! Not a big deal, however - we were able to get online without much trouble.
Note for those with older or younger guests - there are lots of stairs! If your little ones and elders are good with that, you will be fine. If not, probably not a great fit for you. It looked so great for pets, we were sad we hadn't brought our dogs with us! The river is outside a fenced yard and orchard, so little ones would have a hard time wandering down to it - fairly safe for little kids if you want something close but not too close to the river.
Recommend "Pockets Grille" in town for those who want to grab something yummy for dinner - good sweet potato fries and burgers, plus a tilapia dish that looked WAY too nice to be eaten with a plastic fork. :-)
This was a great place to work and relax - all of us highly recommend it.
Hanna's River House was the perfect getaway location for our fairly large (11) golf group. All the guys were impressed with the secluded location, with all of them asking me at one time or another "how did you find this place?!" We were provided with virtually everything we needed to ensure a comfortable, homey atmosphere, and everyone had a great time. I heartily recommend the River House as a great location to get away from the hustle and bustle, but it's close enough to Bastrop to enjoy all that the town has to offer. Thanks for a great stay - looking forward to more of them!

US slams 'outlandish allegations' from Venezuela
Thursday - 3/21/2013, 1:32pm EDT
CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) - The U.S. State Department says Venezuelan official claims of U.S.-based plots are "unsubstantiated and outlandish allegations."
Thursday's statement describes the allegations as "disappointing" and it rejects charges of "U.S. government involvement in any plots to destabilize the Venezuelan government or to harm anyone in Venezuela."
Venezuelan officials have stepped up anti-U.S. rhetoric ahead of an April 14 election to replace the late President Hugo Chavez.
Foreign Minister Elias Jaua said Wednesday his government is suspending lines of communication set up by U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Roberta Jacobson. Jaua accused Jacobson of helping opposition candidate Henrique Capriles.
Acting Presidentr Nicolas Maduro has said former U.S. officials were plotting to assassinate Capriles to foment a coup. He also has accused the U.S. of infecting Chavez with cancer.

I agree with you, however I must say that Sena offers a 30 day money back policy, and we have not had any returned for performance reasons. I have not tried the Uclear yet, but it is on my list, and we'll see how it compares to the SMH10.

I have not seen a sound argumentation against Wabbit45's claims as of yet. But they may follow, I am closely following this thread
The word "mean" has been mentioned with regards to what wabbit45 said.
With regards to that, please be remembered that the industry has to thank itself for customers NEEDING to be critical against all kinds of manufacturers claims that in practice most of the time are never met.
If manufacturers were to over exaggerate their products abilities a little less, we would have less need to be this "mean" (which I rather call: sound critics).
For now, all manufacturers of BlueTooth communication devices have been shouting that their products were the absolute top of the bill, and until now, no product has met the expectations manufacturers have installed in us. None have.
So I am simply stating, that one can claim anything he wants, I want to see objective proof of all the claims. I have been a victim of commerce once to often to become one yet again. Prove that your stuff is great. For instance with a full money back guarantee, no questions asked, on 1 month period. Anyone who has a solid product in which he/she believes for the full 100 percent would gladly offer such a warranty, knowing nobody will bring it back since it is 100 percent delivering on its promises.
Reviews often make me smile. Every "professional" review I have read is most of the time positive, since the reviewer mostly would like to do his trick in the future again sometimes. They are never outright neutral to any product, since most of the time you see a button "buy now!" somewhere around this so called "review" which is most of the time nothing more then a marketing instrument. Objective tests. That is what consumers want. We want to know exactly what we buy, and how that product stands up against other products in the branch. To make a well informed purchase.

Calif. death penalty moratorium bill stalls
SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) – Two days after California
executed its oldest death row inmate, state lawmakers on
Thursday blocked a bill that would bar the state from carrying
out death sentences for two years.
The bill's Democratic author blamed Republicans for
stalling it in the state Assembly's Appropriations Committee
and said he would not abandon his proposed moratorium, which
would also allow a committee to investigate whether California
had sent innocent people to death row.
"Once we have 41 votes committed on the Assembly side,
we'll take another bill and bring it back," Assemblyman Paul
Koretz said in an interview. "It's a question of bringing it
back when we are best situated."
Koretz said the Assembly's Republican caucus pressured its
members on the committee to oppose his bill and convinced some
Democrats, who control the state Legislature, that their
support for the bill would be used against them.
"The Republican caucus decided to make it a big wedge
issue," Koretz said.
New Jersey lawmakers earlier this month backed a moratorium
on the death penalty, becoming the first state legislature to
suspend the practice since the U.S. Supreme Court reinstated
capital punishment in 1976.
California Assemblyman Todd Spitzer, a Republican who
witnessed Tuesday's execution of 76-year-old murderer Clarence
Ray Allen in California's death chamber at San Quentin prison,
said Koretz and supporters of his bill failed to make the case
that wrongly convicted inmates could be executed.
"I think the author of the bill failed to meet the burden
of proof in putting forth his legislation," Spitzer said. "If
there has been any evidence of unlawful convictions, those
would have been overturned on appeal."
California's next execution is scheduled for February 21.
The condemned man is Michael Angelo Morales, 46, who was
convicted of the brutal murder of a 17-year-old girl in 1981.

Press release from PR Newswire
Kodiak Oil & Gas Corp. Provides Interim Corporate Update
Tuesday, February 07, 2012
Kodiak Oil & Gas Corp. Provides Interim Corporate Update16:00 EST Tuesday, February 07, 2012DENVER, Feb. 7, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Kodiak Oil & Gas Corp. (NYSE: KOG), an oil and gas exploration and production company with primary assets in the Williston Basin of North Dakota, today provided an interim corporate update on recent drilling and completion activities. Interim Drilling and Completion Operations UpdateIn conjunction with closing its latest acquisition in January 2012, the Company assumed its sixth operated rig. All of Kodiak?s operated drilling rigs are presently drilling ahead on wells in North Dakota, with one rig in Dunn County, two rigs in southern Williams County and three rigs in McKenzie County. Furthermore, the Company has an approximate 50% working interest in lands being drilled by two non-operated drilling rigs as part of its Dunn County Area of Mutual Interest (AMI). The Company has entered into a contract for a seventh operated rig, a new build rig, which is scheduled for second quarter 2012 delivery. As the year progresses, Kodiak plans to operate one to three rigs in Dunn County, two to three rigs in McKenzie County and three to four rigs in Williams County. The 2012 to 2013 drilling program is designed so that Kodiak is positioned to have nearly all of its acreage held by production by mid-2013, eliminating leasehold expiry across much of its 155,000 net acre position in the Williston Basin.Effective January 1, 2012, Kodiak assumed control of a 24-hour dedicated completion crew. The two-year agreement is expected to allow for continuous and timely completion operations. To accommodate an expanded well completion schedule from the October 2011 and January 2012 acquisitions, a second completion crew was recently secured on an ?as-needed? basis for work beginning in mid-February 2012. Between the Company?s operations update in mid-October 2011 and January 2012, Kodiak completed eight gross (4.7 net) operated wells. In addition to its operated wells, the Company participated in the completion of four gross (1.9 net) non-operated wells under its Dunn County AMI. Initial production results from the wells, where available, are included in the table below. Kodiak currently has 13 gross (11.0 net) operated wells that have been drilled and are being completed or waiting to commence completion operations. Three of these wells are on multi-well pads where all of the drilling has not been completed. Drilling activity by the AMI partner continues with two gross (1.0 net) wells drilled and waiting on completion. Non-operated drilling and completion activities within the AMI are expected to continue throughout 2012. Workover activity has commenced to remediate the first of the mechanical liner issues that were recently experienced. Completion of these wells is expected to commence during late first quarter 2012 and continue based upon results. The Company has discontinued utilization of the completion systems that resulted in the mechanical issues. Kodiak expects the new completion systems to materially eliminate the previously experienced issues.

Peterson said: ?We continue to integrate the recently acquired properties and have allocated drilling rigs in three geographic areas where we plan to focus our drilling program during 2012. With our drilling program, we believe we can readily hold nearly all of our leasehold by production in early 2013, generating a multi-year development program. With our additional workover rigs secured in January, we have returned most of the acquired wells to production and can stay ahead of our completion schedule. Our full-time dedicated completion crew, along with the additional part time crews, allows us to work through our inventory of high-working-interest wells waiting on completion. ?The completion table indicates lower-than-usual initial rates on our Charging Eagle wells. We attribute this anomaly to an all-sliding-sleeves completion and the resulting well bore restrictions during flow-back, combined with a delayed delivery in the coil tubing unit required to drill out plugs. Several weeks after initial completions operations were concluded, the wells were cleaned out and have returned to expected production rates. Our team made great strides in January on both new drilling and completion activities as well as in routine maintenance operations. With mild winter conditions in North Dakota, all operations are running efficiently allowing Kodiak to best execute on our 2012 program.?

California was not originally part of Mexico.
But I have some questions. When you say Latino culture, I am going to assume you are not talking about the Latin culture that dates back to the Roman Empire from which all Latino Culture draws.
Then again, are you talking about the European colonial culture that seeded it, or the pre-Columbian cultures, African slaves, the other European cultures that expanded it's populations, or the eastern immigrants that influenced the culture seeded by the others.
Or are you talking about the people whom live here today and call themselves "Latino"?
Actually the only culture that is brutally important to the present and to the future, is that of being a Californian and an American. The others, they're history.I say Disney needs to do a better job at including a culture that is brutally important to its past and present.

South Africa recalls 1.35 million condoms
JOHANNESBURG Some condoms burst. Others leaked like sieves. South Africa's leading anti-AIDS group said Tuesday that allegedly faulty condoms are among more than 1.35 million handed out at the African National Congress' 100th birthday party.
Health officials confirmed that all of those condoms have been ordered to be recalled. But the Treatment Action Campaign said no warning has been issued to people that they may have carried away defective condoms that could now cause them to unsuspectingly spread or contract HIV. South Africa has the world's highest number of AIDS patients, some 5.6 million.
The third recall in less than five years raises questions about the quality of some of the 425 million-plus condoms that the government gives away each year, and the competence of the South African Bureau of Standards that is supposed to ensure their quality is up to international standards.
AIDS activist Sello Mokhalipi of the Treatment Action Campaign said he complained to the health department after "we had people flocking in, coming to report that the condoms had burst while they were having sex."
Some were panicking because they were infected with AIDS and were concerned for their partners, he said.
Spokesman Jabu Mbalula of the Free State provincial health department, which distributed the condoms before the Jan. 6-8 celebrations, said they had recalled the entire batch of 1.35 million condoms around Jan. 18. He said there was no need for a panic.
But he was unable to say how many of the condoms were used or have been recovered.
In 2007, the government recalled more than 20 million defective condoms manufactured locally but recovered only 12 million. The Health Ministry said many of the condoms failed the air burst test.
That came after a recall the same year of 5 million defective and locally produced condoms. In that case, the Ministry of Health said a testing manager at the South African Bureau of Standards had taken a bribe to certify the faulty contraceptives.
AIDS activist Mokhalipi said the latest recall was limited to health workers going to the Bloemfontein hotels, guesthouses and bars where they had deposited the condoms and reclaiming any that remained.
He complained that the health department had not issued countrywide warnings to alert people not to use condoms distributed during the celebrations that drew tens of thousands of people.
"People came from all over and probably took many away with them, so those condoms are now all over the country," he said.
Those who had used condoms that allegedly had burst should be told to get post-exposure tests and treatment, he said.
"We want the department to go out and tell people about these faulty condoms," Mokhalipi said. "How can they say people should not panic if there are still clearly people out there in possession of these condoms."
The scandal comes just a week after the Journal of the Royal Society Interface published a new study indicating increased condom use accounted for the vast majority of the decline in HIV infections in South Africa between 2000 and 2008. Epidemiologist Leigh F. Johnson and colleagues at the University of Cape Town found that increased condom use accounted for more than 70 percent of the decline.

Theres no doubt the 450's make a ton of power and are hard to hang onto for a whole moto at full chat.
Nobody said they were a breeze to race,they're heavy and feel heavier then they are. If that's a positive thing then so be it.
Lots of people think its fun to have a light flickable racebike that feels even lighter then it is,fun to pitch em around and hold em wide open instead of perpetually torquing around like a belching tractor.
If someone ever builds a modern 450 2 stroke that's light and runs smooth and fast,it wouldnt lack for buyers.
Guys are building project race bikes sticking 500 or 250 2 strokes in modern frames,just for fun,but some neat bikes considering they are using dinosaur engines.

You may be getting too much sky in the meter reading. To avoid this while testing, take it indoors where the lighting is even and see what it reads against an evenly lit wall compared to your cameras. Alternately, use it outside in incident mode and see what you get then. I use a Soligor spot meter for general work, but have a 308 for flash use and they seem to agree fairly closely (about 1/3 of a stop IIRC).
Good luck! Bob.

US jobs report not a 'real recovery': Romney
Published on Oct 6, 2012 11:23 AM
Mitt Romney disputed the upbeat news from a US government jobs report Friday, saying the drop in unemployment from 8.1 to 7.8 percent was a result of people leaving the work force.
"This is not what a real recovery looks like," the Republican White House hopeful said in a statement released as he headed to a "coal country" campaign event in the political battleground of Virginia.
The Labor Department's fresh data for September showed only 114,000 jobs were generated last month, but revisions to the numbers for July and August, showing many more jobs were produced and fewer people dropping out of the workforce, helped cut the overall jobless rate.
President Barack Obama seized on the data as evidence that the economy is slowly but surely recovering from the devastating recession that had helped keep the unemployment rate above 8.0 percent for the duration of his presidency.
"Today, I believe that as a nation we are moving forward again," Obama told a university rally, also in Virginia.
But Romney was having none of it.
"There were fewer new jobs created this month than last month," he told a crowd of more than 3,000 in Abingdon, in Virginia's southwest corner.
"The reason it's come down this year is primarily due to the fact that more and more people have just stopped looking for work," added Romney, who spoke from a truck's flatbed trailer.
"If you just drop out altogether, why you're no longer part of the employment statistics, so it looks like unemployment's getting better. But the truth is, if the same share of people were participating in the work force today as on the day that the president got elected, our unemployment rate would be around 11 percent."
Romney also pointed to the loss of more than 600,000 manufacturing jobs since Obama took office.
"That's the real reality of what's happening out there."
Romney's running mate Paul Ryan issued a statement calling the jobs report "a sad indictment of the diminished expectations under President Obama.
"For those able to find work this month, any job growth is welcome, but this number is once again well below what is needed for America to meet its economic potential," Ryan said.
"We should not have to settle for this new normal."

Pennsylvania Online Gaming
State lawmakers have shown a similar pragmatic approach to online gaming.
In April 2013, House Bill 1235 was introduced by Rep. Tina Davis to legalize online gambling in Pennsylvania. The legislation called for the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board to regulate the licensing, operation, and responsible participation of Internet gambling. The bill also called for the proceeds from the licensing and operation of Internet gaming in the state of Pennsylvania to be split between the Property Tax Relief Fund and the State Lottery Fund. Applicants for Internet gambling licenses in Pennsylvania would be limited to entities that hold an existing slot-machine license in the state. Included in the measure were online poker, other non-house-banked games, and traditional casino table games.
The bill, however, didn't go anywhere. In June 2013, Rep. Tina Pickett, the chair of the Gaming Oversight Committee, voiced concern about bringing online gambling to the state of Pennsylvania. Pickett said she was worried both by how online gaming could impact brick-and-mortar casinos and the possibility of bringing more gambling to the state. The legislation wasn't taken up. But the Senate did request a study on Internet gaming.
The findings of the study were made public in spring of 2014. Among the findings: People who gamble online are typically people who don't visit casinos and they wager much smaller amounts than people who visit casinos.
These findings are critical because the chief objection to online gaming has been that it might cannibalize the land-based casino industry.
In June 2014, Sen. Edwin Erickson introduced legislation to license and regulate online gaming in the state. The bill would license all forms of online gaming, but no substantive action had been taken on the bill as of press time.
Also in the summer of 2014 Parx Casino launched a play for fun site using WMS software and announced a separate deal with GameAccount to run a "simulated" gaming website. The impact of the GameAccount deal on the WMS site was unclear as of press time.

Los Angeles Couple Arrested For Torturing, Murdering 'Gay Acting' Eight-Year-Old Son - VIDEO
Gabriel Fernandez, an eight-year-old from Antelope Valley, Los Angeles, was allegedly murdered by his mother and her boyfriend for 'acting gay,' reports the LA Times.
Gabriel, who died in May 2013, was allegedly beaten, doused with pepper spray, forced to eat his own vomit and locked in a cabinet with a sock in his mouth to muffle his screams.
Gabriel's mother, Pearl Fernandez, and her boyfriend, Isauro Aguirre, both of whom pleaded not guilty, are in jail awaiting trial on charges of capital murder and a special circumstance of torture.
Deputy District Attorney Jonathan Hatami said that Gabriel "was abused, beaten and tortured more severely than many prisoners of war" for eight months.
Two of the boy's siblings confirmed that Gabriel was forced to eat cat feces, rotten spinach and vomit; that he slept in a locked cabinet and wasn't let out to go to the bathroom; and that Fernandez and Aguirre called him gay, punished him when he played with dolls and forced him to wear girls' clothes to school.
According to testimony, Pearl Fernandez once jabbed Gabriel in the mouth with a bat and knocked out several teeth.
One of Gabriel's siblings said that on the day of the fatal beating, Fernandez began hitting her son because he didn't want to pick up his toys. She then dragged him into a bedroom, where Aguirre joined her, and the siblings heard screaming, banging and then silence.
James Kemp Ribe of the L.A. County coroner's office told the grand jury that Gabriel died as a result of blunt-force trauma and child neglect. He added, "I have never seen this many skin injuries on one child."
Gabriel's mother called 911 on May 22nd, 2013. She told sheriff's deputies that Gabriel had fallen and hit his head on a dresser. Paramedics found Gabriel naked in a bedroom, not breathing, with a cracked skull, three broken ribs and BB pellets embedded in his lung and groin. He died two days later.
The incident has prompted calls for reforms to the Los Angeles County foster-care system because child welfare workers failed to remove Fernandez from his home. Moves have since been taken to fire two social workers and two supervisors, while others involved in the case have received letters of warning or reprimand.

SCOTUS now directly shares blame when we read future stories like this. The stay granted in VA tells our fellow countrymen that we are 'less than' and unequal and deserving of a lack of human rights. That both creates and perpetuates the climate in which these horrors happen.

Thank you religion for there would be no hate, discrimination, bigotry, violence, murders or suicide of our LGBT population - especially youth. God teaches hate and violence from the pulpit, according to his living disciples. This hatred has got to stop!

Prison isn't severe enough punishment...

They deserve life in prison so they can remember every single day what they did to this innocent child.

My feeling in these cases is that the punishment should suit the crime ... this couple should be treated exactly like they treated this defenseless little boy ...

@ Jack M - agreed, but someone needs to be sure that the prison is the worst imaginable.

Dale, they may just get that in prison if the other prisoners learn the details of their crime.

So much to say and so little that I am able to. Bless this soul of this child who should never have had to go through such things. I am struck by so much but also think of how many parents gay or straight that would love to have had Gabriel as their child.
Posted by: Jeff | Aug 21, 2014 9:16:45 AM
May God change the heart of the parents. The child has entered eternal rest and life with the Lord now and remembers not the horrors of this world.

The problem, jack, is they don't feel like they did anything wrong. I suspect they have the same mind set as the anti-abortionists who openly brag about murdering the clinic doctors and staff.
At minimum, chemical castration to him and complete hyustorectomy for her; the should never be permitted to bring another life into this world.
Why is it that as long as there have been civilizations of humanity, religion in one form or another was always the catalyst that has caused them to fall?

I'm against capital punishment but in this case, I'd gladly make an exception. Although,
kiddie killers usually get "special attention" inside so, there's that.

I just watched the news report. Six sheriff's deputies have been "disciplined" for not doing enough to help save Gabriel. They were called to the home FIVE TIMES in the months leading up to his death for suspected physical abuse. Despite the fact that they found a little boy whose face was swollen and badly bruised from beatings(according to his siblings), they did nothing to help him, nor did they report the abuse to the authorities. Their supervisors called the deputies' "missteps" MINOR.

She is a monster. But she is far from being the only guilty of this, and i'm not talking about the stupid boyfriend.
If they beat the poor child for eight months how it's possible nobody reacted and did something

There's no way they could not have noticed what was happening to this boy if these wounds were THAT visible.
There's a lot of culpability going on here, teachers, neighbors, cops, foster care system....

Little Gabriel's mother and her filthy boyfriend are the worst kind of human beings. They are as horrible as the bastards who decapitated the American journalist, Mr Foley, yesterday.
My co-worker from housekeeping came in the office about an half an hour ago. He asked me (not expecting a serious answer) was I crying?
I said, yes, a little. I can't stop this morning.
To torture and murder a defenseless child--probably the most dispicable and cowardly act a human being can commit.

PROVIDENCE, RI A new survey of child psychiatrists indicates that insomnia is a major problem among children in mental health treatment and at least a quarter of these patients are given sleep medication. The results of the survey, conducted by Judith Owens, MD, a sleep expert with Hasbro Children's Hospital, and colleagues, suggests that management of insomnia in this population is a common practice, although the clinical approach varies widely. The study is published in the August 2010 edition of Sleep Medicine.
Nearly 1,300 members of the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry completed a survey to examine the clinical practice patterns regarding non-prescription and prescription medication for insomnia by child and adolescent psychiatrists. Based on their responses, Owens and her fellow researchers determined insomnia is a significant clinical issue among nearly one-third of the psychiatrists' school-aged and adolescent patients.
To address the issue, an overwhelming 96 percent of the clinicians recommended at least one prescription medication in a typical month and 88 percent recommended an over-the-counter medication. The sleep medications prescribed ranged from antihistamines to sedating medications for Attention Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), such as alpha agonists (clonidine), to antidepressants like trazodone. They also included medications from a number of other categories, such as antipsychotics and anticonvulsants, depending on the psychiatric or behavioral diagnosis of the child.
Owens, who is also an associate professor at The Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University comments, "The most important rationale for the use of sleep medication among child psychiatrists is to manage the effects of sleep disruption on daytime functioning. It is important to note, however, that concerns about side effects and the lack of evidence regarding their effectiveness were cited as significant ba

WeatherKathmandu, Nepal
BEIJING: Film star Jackie Chan joined other celebrities today at a meeting of China's highest-profile advisory body, a move seen by analysts as an attempt by the ruling Communist Party to cultivate "soft power".
Nobel literature prizewinner Mo Yan and basketball star Yao Ming also attended the annual meeting of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), organised by the party. The Hong Kong actor's participation in the meeting, as one of 2,000 delegates making suggestions to China's government, has been strongly criticised by some in his native city.
The martial arts star provoked a furious fight-back last December after reportedly suggesting that protests in Hong Kong should be restricted. In 2009 he landed in hot water for telling a forum that "we Chinese need to be controlled".
The 58-year-old, famous in the West for the "Rush Hour" series and "Police Story", kept a low profile outside the meeting.
"I have no way of speaking now, we don't have enough time to elaborate," he told a scrum of reporters opposite Beijing's Tiananmen Square.
Chan said merely that he was "very happy" before boarding a bus with Mo Yan.
Xi, currently party chief, will be formally appointed president to replace Hu Jintao during a meeting of the National People's Congress, or legislature, which starts on Tuesday. The CPPCC is purely an advisory body with little political clout, but is given a high profile as part of the ruling party's efforts to appear consultative and democratic rather than hierarchical. Its hundreds of delegates include prominent citizens such as scientists, business owners and artists, and some non-communists.
Professor Sonny Ho, co-director at Hong Kong's Centre for Greater China Studies, has said Chan was selected to attend the CPPCC because it was thought his stardom could help promote ties with Hong Kong. Many in the former British colony are wary of Beijing's perceived interference in its domestic affairs.

Plant Genomics 'Molecular Scissors' Developed at KAUST
King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) have developed a

nutritional needs of a growing population but could pave the way for surplus

Dr. Mahfouz works at the Plant Stress Genomics Research Center at KAUST,
directed by Professor
with its founder's expressed desire that KAUST should bring the benefits of
novel research and the accompanying economic development to the region, with
the promise of benefits worldwide.
Dr. Mahfouz has developed a "repair tool" (molecular scissors) made out
of protein that does two things: it finds the exact place on the genome where
it is to be cut using a genetic "postcode" and then deletes, adds or edits
the gene with great accuracy and precision.
Dr. Mahfouz's work has the potential for much broader applications
including human health. This new technology could enhance the technique that
may be used to substitute "good" genes for bad, or to cut out or silence the
defective genes that cause disease.
Commenting on the research, KAUST Provost Stefan Catsicas saw the
technology as a scientific breakthrough and, if the patent is eventually
successful, having potentially promising revenues.
DNA-cutting enzymes tailored to cut a desired target sequence with very high
specificity. This is an excellent step forward toward creating very specific
genetic improvements in crop plants, while avoiding the potential risks many
are concerned about with more conventional genetic modification strategies.
Moreover, the paper gives the first evidence that this particular strategy
will work in plants." Professor Federoff is "delighted to see such
cutting-edge contributions emerging from a university as young as KAUST!"

CHENNAI: Water from the Kandaleru reservoir in Andhra Pradesh, which was released on Friday, is expected to reach Uthukottai on the inter-state border by Wednesday morning.
According to Public Works Department officials, water has flowed till around 72 km of the Kandaleru-Poondi canal as on Sunday morning. The total distance of the canal within the Andhra Pradesh limits is 152 km.
From Uthukottai, the water has to further travel 25 km to reach the storage point at the Poondi reservoir.
The discharge from the Kandaleru reservoir is being maintained at 300-500 cubic feet per second (cusecs).
It is expected to be stepped up in the coming days to facilitate quicker realisation of water in the Tamil Nadu limits. "We have asked for release of 1,000 cusecs, which is the full capacity of the canal at Uthukottai, to meet the city's water demand," said a PWD official.
Water discharged from Kandaleru reservoir, which has a storage capacity of 24.7 thousand million cubic feet (tmcft), would cater to domestic consumption en route before it reaches the State border.
Repair work at the canal towards the Poondi reservoir, initiated two months ago, has been suspended to enable free flow of water.
It would be resumed in January after the realisation of water from the neighbouring state, officials said.
Measures have been taken to store the Kandaleru water in the Poondi reservoir, which now has 217 mcft of water.
A Metrowater official said once the storage was stepped up, water may be either diverted to the reservoirs in Red Hills or Chembarambakkam for distribution to the city.
