Mana Khemia: Alchemists of Al-Revis (PlayStation 2) review
"The PlayStation 2 has been a very prolific platform for RPGs during its lifecycle, and even long after the PS3's release, a select few developers continue to service it. Gust is among them, choosing the PS2 for Mana Khemia (2007 in Japan, 2008 in the US). An alchemy-themed game in which gathering recipes and ingredients to create your own items, weapons and armour, Mana Khemia plays so similarly to the three Atelier Iris games that it's tempting to just consider it Atelier Iris 4 and be done wit..."

California's Public Pension Crisis An Interview with Sr. Fellow Lawrence McQuillan
Recorded: Friday, June 5, 2015
Senior Fellow Lawrence McQuillan, author of California Dreaming, appears on KFIV radio in Modesto. McQuillan discusses the man-made financial tsunami that is threatening California: the underfunded public employee pension system. The crisis threatens to bankrupt the state unless it reforms its pension system to a 401k-style contribution plan, that is common in the private sector. McQuillans plan will not effect current retirees, but would reform the system over decades to avoid a catastrophe.

FLASH MEMORY SUMMIT, Santa Clara, Calif., August 13, 2013 – LSI Corporation (NASDAQ: LSI) is demonstrating its latest LSI® SandForce® flash controller technology innovations at the Flash Memory Summit, taking place this week at the Santa Clara Convention Center.
Greg Huff, LSI senior vice president and chief technology officer, will deliver a keynote presentation, and additional LSI flash experts will present and participate in forum sessions to provide their insight and perspective into the latest flash memory-based technologies and trends and how they are changing the IT landscape.
LSI demonstrations include LSI SHIELD™ technology, an advanced error-correction method designed to deliver enterprise-class SSD endurance and data integrity, even while using less expensive flash memory that typically has higher error rates. SHIELD technology is a unique implementation of low-density parity-check (LDPC) code and digital signal processing (DSP) that will be available in next-generation SandForce flash controllers. The technology combines hard-decision, soft-decision and DSP to provide a comprehensive error correction code (ECC) solution that is optimized for flash memory.
LSI SHIELD technology offers advantages over existing LDPC implementations by uniquely combining several features:
Multi-level ECC schema: judiciously applies stronger levels of ECC to minimize latency while maintaining optimal flash performance
"While the value proposition of NAND flash memory grows and is driving the adoption of flash-based storage solutions, the tradeoff is that today's smaller fabrication geometries come with lower reliability and a shorter lifespan," said Huibert Verhoeven, vice president and general manager, Flash Components Division, LSI Corporation. "LSI SHIELD technology helps solve these challenges with advanced error correction that is optimized for SSDs and transforms the latest NAND flash memory into a more robust storage solution."
SHIELD technology: the demo will showcase the error-correction advantages of SHIELD technology versus existing LDPC and Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem (BCH) code methods through a comparison of the three technologies based on various raw bit-error rates (RBER) from the flash.
DuraWrite™ Virtual Capacity (DVC): a unique SandForce flash controller feature that extends the available storage capacity for typical data beyond the physical capacity of the underlying flash memory. By increasing storage capacity for the same physical flash memory, DVC helps to reduce the cost per gigabyte of delivered capacity to the user. With typical database applications, LSI internal testing has shown that DVC can be used to more than triple the capacity for storing user data. The DVC feature will be demonstrated showing various applications of the technology.
Toshiba advanced 19nm flash: LSI SandForce SF-2000 flash controllers now support Toshiba's second generation advanced 19 nanometer (nm) NAND flash memory (A19nm), enabling SSD manufacturers to produce more affordable SSD products. The demo will showcase an SSD with Toshiba A19nm flash technology set up as a secondary drive to show typical file-transfer operations.
"Kingston is very excited to offer the new LSI SandForce DuraWrite Virtual Capacity technology to our key customers with known, lower-entropy workloads," said Ariel Perez, SSD business manager, Kingston. "By working closely with the storage engineers at these accounts, we are able to identify specific implementations where we can dramatically decrease the customer's cost per GB of usable capacity. DVC will enable more of our enterprise customers to make the switch from traditional hard disk drives to flash memory-based SSDs to take advantage of the many performance benefits."
"We have worked closely with LSI to enable this first public demonstration of Toshiba second generation advanced 19nm (A19nm) NAND in a solid state drive," said Scott Nelson, senior vice president of the memory business unit of TAEC (Toshiba America Electronic Components, Inc.). "The LSI SandForce flash controller design provides the flexibility to integrate our A19nm NAND flash technology which is sure to play a prominent role in the solid-state storage market."
Thursday, August 15, 11:30 a.m.-12:00 p.m. (Keynote 9): Greg Huff, SVP and CTO, will present "Generation Flash: Challenges and Solutions."
Tuesday, August 13, 8:30-11:20 a.m. (Forum D-11): Kent Smith, senior director of marketing, will present "Don't Let Your Favorite Benchmarks Lie to You" in the Flash in Datacenters session.
Tuesday, August 13, 3:15-5:25 p.m. (Forum B-12): Earl Cohen, chief architect, will present "The Nibbles and Bits of SSD Data Integrity" in the Flash-Memory Based Architectures technical session.
Tuesday, August 13, 7:00-8:30 p.m. (Chat with the Experts): LSI flash experts will participate in table sessions on controllers, PCIe flash and flash markets, to discuss frequently asked questions, best practices, and key products and standards.
IT Brand Pulse, an independent market research and validation lab, will present LSI with an "Innovation Leader" award for SSD Controller Chips at Flash Memory Summit on Wednesday, August 14, at 1:00 p.m. in Exhibitor Hall A-B; #108.

Lax County Passes Extensions Of Union Pacts
A mini-battle over budgets and unions, at the county level...
The La Crosse County Board has extended some union contracts for two years, which include pay raise language. Only three votes were cast against the contracts. County personnel director Bob Taunt says this will settle union matters for three years, while other parts of Wisconsin experiment with the governor's budget repairs.
Opponents of the extension do not want the county locked into granting raises for the next two years, when nobody knows what the economy will be like over that period.


text: The Decisions wiki last edited by pikahyper on 04/18/14 02:33AM View full history Scott and Madelyne's honeymoon takes a turn when their plane goes down in the Pacific. Meanwhile, Wolverine uncovers a plot that sees Mariko undermining her clan's honor.On their way to their honeymoon, Scott and Madelyne crash in the mid-Pacific, victims of a rising storm. While trying their best to fix their plane, they almost become the victims of a very predatory squid. Having escaped the seafood with attitude and the storm both, Scott decides he wants a normal life with Madelyne and will not join his father and the Starjammers. Wolverine confronts Mariko who has sent the clan's honor sword back to him. Now free of Mastermind's control, she still refuses Logan, for both she – while under Mastermind's control – and her father have bound Clan Yashida to the Japanese underworld. She now considers it her duty to free the clan from that influence first before being able to marry him. Heavy-hearted, Wolverine accepts her decision. In the meantime in Washington, Henry Gyrich and several other government officials are meeting to discuss the growing danger of mutants. In the Morlock tunnels, Callisto, Sunder and Masque learn how Kitty Pryde betrayed Caliban and promise they'll force her to make good on her promise to him.

The sides have been chosen. The political world has made their selections on Occupy Wall Street: Democrats are generally supportive though timid, and Republicans are claiming that it sows social unrest and class warfare.
Wall Street, for its part, is either getting their friends in politics or the media to denounce the hippies, or claiming they share the frustrations of the protesters. They don't want to be out in front of the parade, but Paul Krugman, in an excellent piece, ferrets them out anyway.
The way to understand all of this is to realize that it's part of a broader syndrome, in which wealthy Americans who benefit hugely from a system rigged in their favor react with hysteria to anyone who points out just how rigged the system is […]
What's going on here? The answer, surely, is that Wall Street's Masters of the Universe realize, deep down, how morally indefensible their position is. They're not John Galt; they're not even Steve Jobs. They're people who got rich by peddling complex financial schemes that, far from delivering clear benefits to the American people, helped push us into a crisis whose aftereffects continue to blight the lives of tens of millions of their fellow citizens.
Yet they have paid no price. Their institutions were bailed out by taxpayers, with few strings attached. They continue to benefit from explicit and implicit federal guarantees — basically, they're still in a game of heads they win, tails taxpayers lose. And they benefit from tax loopholes that in many cases have people with multimillion-dollar incomes paying lower rates than middle-class families.
This special treatment can't bear close scrutiny — and therefore, as they see it, there must be no close scrutiny.
In fact, the game has become so rigged that close scrutiny is no longer needed. You need only be armed with the chart showing the path of financial industry profits. [cont'd]
The depiction shows profits in the financial sector experienced only a temporary hiccup after their industry crashed the economy. Compare that to the New York Times story on what happened to your own pay stub, if you're fortunate enough to still have one.
In a grim sign of the enduring nature of the economic slump, household income declined more in the two years after the recession ended than it did during the recession itself, new research has found.
Between June 2009, when the recession officially ended, and June 2011, inflation-adjusted median household income fell 6.7 percent, to $49,909, according to a study by two former Census Bureau officials. During the recession — from December 2007 to June 2009 — household income fell 3.2 percent.
The finding helps explain why Americans' attitudes toward the economy, the country's direction and its political leaders have continued to sour even as the economy has been growing. Unhappiness and anger have come to dominate the political scene, including the early stages of the 2012 presidential campaign.
Basically, corporate interests have stolen the productivity of wage-earners, while the financial sector most responsible for the crisis that caused these lost wages soars without constraint. That's really all you need to know.
And people know it. They are aware of the contents of their own wallets. They live in America and see what unregulated capitalism and an oligarchy of financial tycoons and the politicians they purchased have done to their lives. They see their personal debt multiplying and their job prospects narrowing, while a small portion of lower Manhattan might as well have been transported from the Roaring '20s. That's why so many of them have finally been radicalized. That's why their numbers are outgrowing the public spaces they have chosen to occupy.
That's why the malefactors of great wealth are trying to discredit a movement of 99%.

Climatologist» search for more Jobs
Climatologists are interested in identifying long-term climate phenomena and reporting on its possible causes and implications on the earth's environment. They may prepare long-term forecasts for seasonal conditions and for climate change, studying records and conducting environmental tests as well as using advanced modelling software. There are some positions within the discipline of climatology which are available to bachelor level graduates (particularly those who have completed honours) these may include research and laboratory assistance roles. To take the title of "climatologist" however, and to complete independent research, post-graduate qualifications, usually at a PhD level are almost always required.

All praise to James Lind for inventing the controlled trial (24 February, p 46). But why was he 170 years behind the times in finding a cure for scurvy?
In 1577, Sir Francis Drake stopped over at what is now called Patagonia, during his circumnavigation of the globe. His sailing master, Captain William Winter, discovered that the natives ate the astringent bark of a local tree (
But when a problem disappears, the means to solve it can be forgotten too, and that's what happened to winter's bark. In 1744 Admiral Anson's circumnavigation ended with two-thirds of his sailorsover 400 ...

This time we have nothing to lose but everything to gain. This will be a match of the ages between us and though your actions and ours at Rise from the Ashes we will forever be remembered in history. That's is a damn guarantee, no matter what type of match we'll be in.
Jesting Madness vs Shadows of Madness III, one last time. Everything on the line. Blood will be shed, bones will be broken, egos will be shattered but after this match things will never be the same. We'll be sure to Rise from the Ashes as the new EWNCW Blacklist Champions!
God's Grace, welcome back. We hope that when we are finished with The Jesting Madness, it will Abel and I who have the chance to face you.
Enjoyed the show SEZ, Jesting Madness FTW!
And I realised, my reign was precisely 4 months! Happy days...
Right, since I'm on a tear, INFERNO WILL BE POSTED TONIGHT.
I've had to change a few things last minute, so I couldn't post it last night.
Holy salty fishpaste, it's been a long ass night of working. Sorry for the lack of postage but real life beckons. Now with that said...*clears throat*
Okay...Okay...Wooooooo....I think I'm okay now *chuckles* HAHAHAHAHA!! Okay...now I'm alright I think. Wooooooo....*starts wiping the tears away* I haven't laughed like that in a long time, thank you for that. *clears throat* Okay now where to begin...
You honestly believe that don't you? You poor stupid soul. "I'm going to take your SOUUUULLLLLL!!" Bahaha, what's next? "I WANT TO SUCK YOUR BLOOOOOODDDD!!!" You're better off sleeping in a coffin or being on the front of a cereal box.
Matthew 24:5 says "For many will come in my name, and they will say. 'I AM THE LIVING GOD, The Messiah', and they will deceive many." Though you Mr. Dimension have appeared to have only deceived yourself. You call yourself the "God of Destruction" but you'll only be the God of your own destruction if you do not cease your hypocritical and blasphemous ways. I grow weary of you Mr. Dimension, weary of hearing you speak so highly of yourself when you shouldn't, Talk when you shouldn't.
I'll show you soon enough that you are a mortal man, that you bleed and feel pain. So much pain. I'll take this "Mark of the Beast" make your blood another stamp in the Bible of the Archangel.
I'll be away from this afternoon until Sunday, so I'll miss Inferno live tonight :(
Looking forward to reading it on Sunday in a wrestling filled day! This week's Rage will be posted on Monday then folks!

From the article: 'One Life To Live' Fantasy Fiction - Part 13
What do you think about ABC cancelling 'The Revolution'? Plus, what do you think about 'General Hospital' bringing so many Llanview characters over to Port Charles? Some fans are saying GH is just becoming a take-off of OLTL, do you agree or disagree?
- bring back one life to live. take off the talk shows that are senceless.
- —Guest kelly
you guys are crazy
- I have watched one life to live" for 43 years and cancelling this show is absolutely insane everybody on this soap is so special and we miss them all terribly and hope and pray you reconsider bring them back
- —Guest Sherry Arias
The Revolution
- Hate the show. Glad it is going off the air. Need to cancel The Chew also and bring back both of the soap opera,All My Children and One Life to live.
- —Guest Brenda
Nothing good to watch anymore.
- ABC, you've taken the good shows off the air, OLTL, Missing with Ashley Judd, what next? As a matter of fact, since I don't have cable, there's not much else to watch. I sure as heck am not watching on ABC anymore. We fans want to know whats happening to the actors, are they working? I've seen some on GH, but I'm sick of the Kate, Sonny, Maxie, Matt, lines. We want to be able to watch John and Natalie build a life together with their little boy. Also, to be able to watch the Victor, Tea, Todd, Blair relationships. We can't forget Viki, the main gal, she is a great actress. Please put OLTL back on, your rating will soar and you will make the fans happy!
- —Guest Mary
No ABC for me---EVER.
- I watche OLTL since the early 70's. ABC has nothing for me. I watch nothing on this channel. In fact, it is deleted from my channel lineup. Please, ABC listen to the people. Bring back OLTL.
- —Guest Ruth
- oltl needs to return., abc sucks with out daytime soaps. i don't watch abc at all now.
- —Guest lee
Are you not listening?
- We fans, want OLTL back on the air now! There is too many talk, food, self help and reality shows on as it is. We just want something we can relax and watch and relate to in the afternoon. It's our time to wind down and enjoy a program we love and have watched for years. The actors have had their vacation time now, so put them back to work. This was their life, they loved it and were great at what they did. Please put OLTL back on the air.
- —Guest Mary
cancellation of the Revoultion
- Don't watch the show, if it's cancel, they may bring back OLTL back
- —Guest talkitiv
Another talk show
- I'm not watching abc from 1 to 3! And I think the Abc people need to wake up and bring back our soaps!
- —Guest Rick
- I want One life to to return. I am not interested in revolution. The should cancel chew next.
- —Guest denise
G M A In The Afternoon
- I have already stated how glad I am that the Revolution is dumped. However I see from the crap ABC is replacing it with they haven't switched their brains back on. 2 hours of G M A in the morning is more than enough for anyone. After all, how much new news can happen in 5 hours? ABc is also leaving it up to the local stations to decide if they want G M A or GH on this fall. Can you imagine people watching 1 hour of a group of people cooking,eating and talking all at the same time? Then watch G M A and an hour of Katie? Not to mention we have Live on in the morning as well as the View. That would mean 7 hours of news and boaring talk shows. Come on ABC do you really think the viewers are that low down If you can't bring back OLTL at least bring us some kind of continued drama show or make GH a 90 minute show and incorporate OLTL into it. Hopefully in the near future the mob story line will be thrown out so can't you try to at least show a little appreciation and workwith us?
- —Guest vkmiller1
- It should have never happen, we want and need o.l.t.l back on there is a enough talk shows on and cook shows, what is the point you are trying to make.i hope its not for people to stop wacthing T.V. all to together because that could happen believe it or not, than were would the rating be,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
- —Guest Esther

- i watch gma in the morning that is enough for me. will not watch in the afternoon i really miss oltl i watch general hospital and i am enjyoying starr tea' todd john mcbain but it is still not the same im really missing oltl.
- —Guest fatawack
- O L T L was the best soap. G H is always the same over and over and Sony never changes or his script/lines same ole same ole. Like i said i miss One Life To Live.
- —Guest Carolyn
What did you think was going to happen ?

My former publisher is an unabashed mysophobe. This is someone who has a pathological fear of being contaminated by germs. He would come into work and immediately break out the Lysol wipes and clean everything on his desk and in his cubicle — every single day. When he would join employees for lunch at a restaurant, he would wipe down every piece of silverware and demand a new drinking glass.
Let's face it, germs are everywhere, and if you allow yourself to be plagued by germ fears you could be looking at hefty therapy bills down the road — just to cope with everyday life.
I read in a recent study by the Department of Biology at Angelo State University, San Angelo, Texas, that some germs cannot thrive on stainless steel surfaces. The study measured the growth rate of bacteria on plastic and stainless steel push plates in 45 public restrooms. After contaminating the plates with S. aureus, researchers found that the staph germ could not survive on the stainless steel surfaces. Regrettably, the bacteria remained on plastic surfaces for up to five hours.
Here's more about hidden health risks.

News Corp says it might sell Sky News
The FT is reporting this morning that News Corporation has told the government that it might be prepared to sell-off Sky News as a concession in order to avoid a lengthy review of its bid to take full control BSkyB.
The paper quotes familiar with talks between Rupert Murdoch's media business and the Department for Culture, Media and Sport saying that off loading BSKYB's news operation, Sky News, was one option.
It is seen as increasingly unlikely that the BSkyB deal will go through without a major concession.
Last month the likes of WPP's Sir Martin Sorrell were reported as saying that News Corp/BSkyB deal was likely to be passed.
This is despite the European Commission giving its unconditionally approval of the News Corp/BSkyB merger.
"Ofcom, the broadcasting regulator, has strongly recommended the government refer the bid to the Competition Commission on the grounds that it could reduce the diversity of news provision in the UK below an acceptable level, according to two people familiar with the recommendation's contents.
"A review could take six to eight months, during which time analysts estimate that market growth and increased performance could raise BSkyB's price to News Corp by hundreds of millions of pounds."
My question is would they be able to include Kay Burley as part of the deal? I'm just not sure.

I've had the 5D Mark II for a few days now and I finally have all the pieces in place to actually take some pictures. Last night the weather wasn't very exciting so I decided to put together an initial round of "studio" long exposure noise tests. My "studio" in this case is an old wooden wine case filled with toys sitting on a table in my living room. Not the perfect set up but I don't see any reason that these tests wouldn't be valid as most long exposures are not made in strictly controlled studio settings.
Here are the basic specs:
- Ambient air temperature was about 70 degrees F
- f8 for 2.5 second and 5 minute exposures, f16 for 10 minute exposure
- In camera noise reduction OFF
- Processed with DPP 3.5
- DPP noise reduction and sharpening OFF
Keep in mind that there was no sharpening and no attempt to extract the most detail from the images (although I can tell you they sharpen up wonderfully) so evaluate only on how the image holds together over the longer exposures.
Here's a picture of the overall setup…
I chose four areas from which I took 100% crops for each exposure. For this test I used a 2.5 second exposure, a 5 minute exposure, and a 10 minute exposure. The histograms were roughly equal (as expected). Each crop is below, the first image is 2.5 seconds, the second 5 minutes, and the third is the 10 minute exposure.
My comments are at the bottom…I will probably make these rollover images instead of in line like this but didn't have time today.
Crop 1
2.5 second exposure
5 minute exposure
10 minute exposure
Crop 2
2.5 second exposure
5 minute exposure
10 minute exposure
Crop 3
2.5 second exposure
5 minute exposure
10 minute exposure
Crop 4
2.5 second exposure
5 minute exposure
10 minute exposure
So as you can see for the most part the image holds up amazingly well!
My only complaint is this - and I saved this sample for the end of the comparison because chances are pretty good that if I posted it at the beginning everyone would have been looking for it but if I posted it at the end no one would even notice the issue until they looked at this sample and then went back to review the images a second time. In any case, in the longer exposures and in particular the 10 minute exposure some small purple speckles begin to appear (if color noise reduction was on they would appear white).
While I would have liked to provide a better example than the one below I only have access at the moment to the JPG files I saved and not the original RAW file. So, to better show the noise that is produced I took one of the JPGs, resampled it to double it's size then sharpened the hell out of it and cropped it back to 500px. All this using an old version of Paint.NET. So don't evaluate it for quality, only use it to identify what I'm talking about and then see if you can identify it in the other samples.
Here is the sample:
These specks are not really visible when viewed at "print size" or anything under 100% so I don't really think they're a big deal. The original 5D and 1Ds Mark II had this issue as well without using the in camera noise reduction for exposures of longer than about 8 minutes (which is where it becomes noticeable in these images.
I am going to re-do this test to add the following:
1. 15, 20, and 30 minute exposures with and without in-camera noise reduction - this will take a little while because I want to give the camera some time to cool down between the longer exposures just to equalize things.
2. 50% views of the images to better show when the specks would actually be visible in a print.
I will also post some outdoor images that I hope to take this weekend on a short trip to the coast (likely no internet so if I don't respond to questions, etc, I will sometime Sunday when I return).

Michele Bachmann—or at least her publicity manager—did her research. The Prospect received an early copy of Bachmann's new book, "Core of Conviction: My Story," last week. In honor of the book's release today, we've compiled the five "Best of Bachmann" moments from the book.
1. Bachmann's great-great-grandfather won a farm from Jesse James in a game of poker. Bachmann claims that Halvor Munson won a farm in Iola, Kansas, playing poker with Jesse James on a river raft. According to a short biography on Munson, written by a family genealogist, it is likely that Munson did meet Jesse James (before his name became synonymous with outlaws of the American West), but the claim that he won a farm from James is nothing more than family lore.
2. Bachmann is not a fan of Gore Vidal. She even goes so far as to insinuate that Vidal's book, Burr, prompted her to change her party affiliation to Republican. She refers to Vidal as "snotty" and "disgusting." She spends two pages slamming the novel for showing Aaron Burr as a hero. Telling history from Burr's perspective is, of course, the point of the novel. Apparently, Bachmann hasn't spent much time reading fiction. She finishes by assuring her audience that she "never, of course, read another Gore Vidal novel."
3. Every parent occasionally miscalculates a child's age; most don't do so in a published book. Predictably, Bachmann invokes her "five biological children" often. She refers to her sons being five- and two-years-old in 1988. Several pages later, she notes that they're five years apart; the boys were born in 1982 and 1987.
4. Bachmann steers clear of religion in discussing New Heights Charter School. In the book, Bachmann claims that parents withdrew their children from New Heights Charter School, which she helped found, because of the school's focus on "at-risk kids with lower levels of academic achievement." Ryan Lizza's article for The New Yorker, which quotes parents and the school's superintendent, notes that Bachmann was forced to step down because of the school's religious orientation.
5. Bachmann glorifies her Light Bulb Freedom of Choice Act of 2008. If the bill's name seems laughable, wait until you hear her description of compact florescent lightbulbs: They "aren't lightbulbs at all: they're squiggly-shaped things and sort of dark even when lit." Although CFLs do contain a small amount of mercury, the notion that "your home could be declared a hazmat site" if one breaks is a slight exaggeration.
Tue, 2011-11-22 13:19
We know she is no visionary!! She looks at a light bulb and sees something different and looks backward. I look at the new squiggly light bulbs and see the potential for new designs and decorating plus of course the saving on electricity. I see the squiggly light bulb and wonder what we will come up with next!! It is sad this woman has come to be such a well known, illiterate and ineffective politician. She gives all pols a bad name, but she especially denegrates women in leadership positions. People look at her and see other women in positions of authority. As they reject Michelle, they excuse being able to over look other women as leaders because of her obvious incompetence and satisfaction with mediocrity.
Wed, 2011-11-23 07:06
"She gives all pols a bad name, but she especially denegrates women in leadership positions."
Carman: I think that's part of the Republican plan. Can you name one minority they have ever chosen that's not an embarrassment to their group.
From Gonzo to Cain to Condi to Bachman.
It's like the Republican party chooses the worst minority they can find to prove that no group but white Christian men are the only one's capable of doing a job.
Even though they give white Christian men a bad name also.
See Bush. .

A bill is a proposed new law introduced within a legislature that has not been ratified, adopted, or received assent. Once a bill has become law, it is thereafter an act; but in popular usage (or even in moments of scholarly imprecision) the two terms are often treated interchangeably. Bills have a sponsor and sometimes cosponsors.
Bills can be divided into:
Sometimes other classifications of bills are used. For example, under many constitutions particular rules apply to appropriation bills. Commonly, in a bicameral system, the weaker chamber will have reduced powers with respect to appropriation bills than it has with other bills.
All bills originating in the U.S. House of Representatives begin with H.R. and all bills originating from the U.S. Senate begin with an S..
In the United States, bills can have the same number because every two years, at the start of odd-numbered years, the United States Congress recommences numbering from 1. Each two-year span is called a Congress, and each Congress is divided into two year-long periods called sessions.
In most constitutional systems, legislation once passed by the legislature requires the assent of the executive to become law (such as the Monarch, President or Governor).
In parliamentary systems this is normally a formality (since the executive is under the de facto control of the legislature), although in rare cases assent may be refused or reserved.
In presidential systems, the power of assent is used as a political tool by the executive; then it is known as a veto. In presidential systems, the legislature often has the power to override the veto of the executive by means of a supermajority.
In constitutional monarchies, certain matters may be covered by the royal prerogative (for instance in the United Kingdom these include as payments to the Royal Family, succession to the Throne, and the Monarch's exercise of their prerogative powers). The legislature may have significantly less power to introduce such bills, and may require the approval of the monarch or government of the day.

When I look at New Zealand functioning on a daily basis, it strikes me as nothing more than a minor miracle in action. There are – give or take – about 4.4 million of us knocking around the various islands that make up the nation and of this merry band about 500,000 are enjoying retirement, a further 900,000 are under working age, 285,000 are currently between jobs and 7,000 are experiencing a temporary loss of liberty at the pleasure of our judicial system.
Employing some very basic man maths, this leaves 2,708,000 people to ensure that everything requires doing in the 268,670 square kilometres of Aotearoa gets done. And the miracle is that – once Auckland's trains are taken out of the equation – by and large, it works.
The farming community maintains a strong enough breeding programme to see we don't fall short of milk and beef, enough people learn to wear suits to fill the corridors of Wellington, multiple generations of baristas keep Jafaland in lattés and there are still enough Kiwi grafters are left over to ensure the important stuff – cleaning streets, maintaining utilities, automotive journalism and so forth – gets done.
But there are some areas where it is always good to have a little help from time to time and one of these is Chartered Accountancy. Thanks to more people needing boxes ticked at certain times of year, the current Mrs Grimley's firm – and I suspect others like it – fly in support staff from the various corners of the globe to pick up our bean counting shortfall.
The latest – a pair of South Africa's finest which have been trained to answer to the names 'Albertus' and 'Claire' – arrived seven months ago and slotted rather neatly into our lives. In our short time together we've had numerous days out, a romantic weekend on Great Barrier Island and even managed to share the joys of the Rugby World Cup. And now they're going.
My life has been made so much richer by my new friends that I'd simply convinced myself that they would be around forever. And the sudden, crushing realisation that this is not going to be the case is shaping to leave a hole that, until the old miracle healer Time works his magic, will be a huge scar on my landscape.

The work you see on the southern end of Main Street aren't the only improvements taking form.
Brian Tripp, of engineering firm W.K. Dickson, updated Lancaster City Council on Tuesday about the various project that group is overseeing for the city.
Tripp said the upgrades to the city's wastewater treatment plant are about 15 percent complete.
The city wants to install a chemical feed system to address the phosphorous the plant discharges into the Catawba River. The feed system will control the pH levels, as well.
KERSHAW – Former Andrew Jackson High School head football coach Brian Hinson said his choice to resign the Volunteers' post 16 days after he took the job ranks as one of his toughest coaching decisions.
"I'd put it in the top three," said Hinson, who spoke by phone from his Salisbury, N.C., home early Thursday night after attempts to reach him earlier in the day by The Lancaster News failed.
Buford High School salutatorian Kaylee Mahaffey's speech talked about a certain slow animal – the turtle.
Mahaffey said she chose to talk about the turtle because it has to stick its neck out to go through life, and cannot hide in its shell.
She said high school has been but a passing act in the students' lives. Graduation is a sad but exciting time, and the class of 2010 has been properly prepared for the next act, so there is no reason to fear the future.
Lancaster City Councilwoman Linda Blackmon-Brace says changes are in the works with her business, Blackmon-Brace's Bonding Co.
Blackmon-Brace, who's owned and operated the Lancaster business for about 14 years, returned her bail bonding license to the S.C. Department of Insurance on May 14.
In January, the department found that her position on City Council posed a conflict with the business.
Tim Stevens asked each Carolina Christian Academy graduate to compare him or herself to a fined-tuned violin.
That instrument is worthless if it goes years and years without being touched. But if it's played for others to hear, it will have served its purpose.
Stevens urged the graduates to live their lives as if they were that violin.
Stevens, administrator at Grace Christian School in West Columbia, gave the commencement address at Carolina Christian Academy's 2010 graduation, held May 21 in CCA's gymtorium.
For the second time this week, a company has announced plans to move to Lancaster County.
Strategic Outsourcing Inc., a professional employer service, announced Thursday its plan to create between 60 and 80 new jobs here. The company, which is moving its corporate office from Charlotte to the URS building in Indian Land, will also transfer about 160 current employees.
Hal Crenshaw, president of Crenco Oil Co., is still concerned about the city of Lancaster's Streetscape project.
The project, which has made its way to the southern end of the city, brings new curbing, lighting, greenery and sidewalks to Main Street. Work began nearly two months ago and is expected to be completed in August.
Crenshaw said the planned curbing will limit vehicle access to his business, Crenco Food Store, located on South Main Street at the Brooklyn Avenue intersection.
Kilburnie, the Inn at Craig Farm, is celebrating its 10th anniversary with members of the Lancaster County Chamber of Commerce, by hosting the next Business After Hours on Thursday from 5 to 7:30 p.m.
The special celebration will also honor the conclusion of the chamber's two-week membership campaign, and all new members will be recognized as special guests at the event.
GREAT FALLS " Chester Regional Medical Center Chief Executive Officer Craig Walker and Dr. Sam Stone have signed on the dotted line.
Their signatures pledged support to keep the Great Falls Clinic open and Dr. H.P. Snead Jr. and family nurse practitioner Terry Sims available to patients.
About 150 people gathered in the Great Falls Middle School gym last Thursday night to show their support of the local clinic and its staff after talk surfaced about the possible merger of the clinic with the hospital's Richburg clinic.
WASHINGTON D.C. – U.S. Rep. John Spratt is denouncing a recent statement by the National Republican Congressional Committee that referred to him as "Amnesiac John Spratt."
"The NRCC accuses me of 'amnesia,' a sly, underhanded reference to the fact that I am in the early stages of Parkinson's disease," said Spratt, the 14-year term congressman who represents South Carolina 5th District. "I found their assertions beneath contempt."

I thaught before I came here, but it's getting really annoying!!!!
On othger boards there was a discussion if your nvidia-driver causes stability-problems...
Since I installed them, my system is quite stable, but not enough!! Certainly when I just am typing/sending an émail with mozilla....
I'm onlu using the drivers because I like the game bzflag and it needs 3d accell..but I'm really considering about going back to the opensource ones, that are more, more stable....
It's good that your drivers are fast, but they get anoying if you have to restart....To my opinion the stability-problem is really caused by nvidia's driver, because with the opensource ones, it's very stable....
In linux you can restart the xsrver, but that's not an option when you can't type or click anything!
To be a litlle bit positive: I've noticed that the nvidia drivers got more stable...., but nothing in comparison to the opensource ones....
Question...When evrything locks up, can I see the error message somwhere??I think that maybe it's still written if there is one..because only the Xserver locks up, but thze rest keeps on going. I would like to report it, but on startup the /var/lof/Xfree86.0.log is a new one, not? Is the ".old" the one that possible contains an errormessage then?
Thanks, but it's really getting annoying...For the rest, it's a fantastic driver...
Michel Brabants
btw, I have a geforce2mxx400, but I don't see an option to change that...
This belongs in the linux community :)
Hey Michel,
you're not alone. It's a well known problem of many people with the NVIDIA Driver. I wait for one and a half year, that they manage it :-)
But it looks to give a solution. In a gentoo Forum they told to set the RenderAccel-Option in XF86Config off. I'm trying it right now and will see. It looks like working:
Section "Device"
xx xx
xx xx
Option "RenderAccel" "off"
xx xx
I hope it works more than the 10 min I try now ;-)
VIA vt82c586b
GeForce 2 MX 32 MB
renderaccel off
Sorry, have no time to check it now...but what does RenderAccel and won't it decreass performance?
(Yes, I know I'm very demanding :))
So, the most stability bugs are in RenderAccel or how do I have to interpret this?
I'm sorry. 30 min. after posting here the system freezed again :-(
I hope any of NVIDIA's Guys will tell something about .....
How many times does my system freezes?Let's say (0?)/1/2(maybe 3) times/week...Not much..well this is mostley the case..dependent on how many hours I use the computer..(use it quite much). I suppose nvidia has special drivers for certain professions, like peopel that do grahical stuff on the computer as a profession...because when it freezes....you of course loses everything. The opensource ones..Haven't use them for such a long time, but I think that every crash as an exception....
The problem is ofcourse is that you don't knoz zhen the crashes come, so that you're "watching" your back all the time....:)....very annoying.
Yes, it's more than annoying. So I'm back on the OpenSource Driver from XFree.
I knew the prob long time, so I don't loose so many things when it freezes :-), but I haven't got second machine here to shutdown via ssh cleanly.
Do your freezes go away with AGP disabled?
I'll try this later, AGPgart is compiled into my Kernel, so I will use the SuSE-Standard for this. Formerly I used the tar.gz files (ca. 1500 fps glxgears), with the 4363 I used the rpms for SuSE 8.1 (ca. 1200 fps glxgears). I'm pry about the result without agp :-)
Thank You for the tip, you'll hear the result
greez Guy
it seems, that
Option "NvAgp" "0"
in the Device Section of XF86Config helps. It works with the static incompiled agpgart too. /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status tells only "disabled" and it works for the whole day now ;-)
glxgears still renders with ca. 1100fps.
I hope it is a continiously working solution, thx for the tip Andy

1620s, from Greek epidermis, from epi "on" (see epi-) + derma "skin" (see derma). Related: Epidermal; epidermic.
epidermis ep·i·der·mis (ěp'ĭ-dûr'mĭs)n. The nonvascular outer protective layer of the skin, covering the dermis.
The protective outer layer of the skin. In invertebrate animals, the epidermis is made up of a single layer of cells. In vertebrates, it is made up of many layers of cells and overlies the dermis. Hair and feathers grow from the epidermis.
The outer layer of cells of the stems, roots, and leaves of plants. In most plants, the epidermis is a single layer of cells set close together to protect the plant from water loss, invasion by fungi, and physical damage. The epidermis that is exposed to air is covered with a protective substance called cuticle. See more at photosynthesis.
The outside layers of the skin.

A long-hyped technology that lets scientists activate brain cells with flashes of light is beginning to deliver results that may extend far beyond neuroscience labs.
This week, a team of California scientists used the technology to explain a hit-and-miss treatment for Parkinson's disease, as well as show how almost any biological cell could be harnessed with light.
"There's a new era of being able to re-engineer systems in the body so that they can be controlled by light," says Richard Kramer, a neurobiologist at the University of California in Berkeley, not involved in the work. "This is a big step in that direction."
Deep brain stimulation delivers electrical jolts to misfiring brain cells and has improved quality of life for some Parkinson's patients but not others.
It's been completely unclear how it works, and that has impaired effort to generalise it to other diseases and to all patients, says Karl Deisseroth, a psychiatrist at Stanford University in California.
Algal assistance
Using light-controlled brain cells in rodents, Deisseroth's team discovered a set of cells that may be responsible for the palliative effects of the therapy. Targeting these neurons could offer new, less-invasive treatments for the debilitating condition, he says.
Called optogenetics, the technology relies on light-sensitive proteins called channel rhodopsins that are normally produced by algae.
Deisseroth's team previously found that inserting a channel rhodopsin into neurons allows them to be activated with blue light. Similarly, an engineered protein called halo-rhodopsin can silence brain cells when flashed with yellow light.
The proteins do this by pumping charged ions into or out of cells in response to light, creating the electrical potential that is the native language of neurons.
Light relief
To figure out which cell types were responsible for a rodent version of Parkinson's disease, Deisseroth's team genetically engineered several types of cells in and around a brain region called the subthalamic nucleus.
Researchers think that Parkinson's is caused by the loss of dopamine-delivering neurons in this region, but boosting brain cells here had little effect on mice and rats with the disease. When Deisseroth's team stimulated neurons that branch into the subthalamic nucleus at a specific rate, however, the rodents' symptoms eased.
These neurons lie closer to the scalp than the rest of the subthalamic nucleus, suggesting that non-invasive therapies could jolt these cells into action in patients with Parkinson's, Deisseroth says.
'Big impact'
Light-activated neurons might also be handy in understanding why deep-brain stimulation improves symptoms of depression in some patients, but not most others, Deisseroth says.
His team focused on one brain area of particular interest for depression – the nucleus accumbens – in proof-of-principle experiments for a new kind of optogenetic approach described in another paper.
The nucleus accumbens is involved in learning and reward, and Deisseroth's team fooled mice into favouring one half of a room over another by activating neurons in this area when the rodents first explored it.
Instead of performing this trick with light sensitive ion channels, the team stimulated the cells using a kind of signalling protein found in nearly all kinds of cells called G-protein coupled receptors.
In theory, this approach could allow scientists to bring optogenetics to nearly any cell in the body, Deisseroth says.
"I think it's going to have a big impact outside of neuroscience," agrees Marla Feller, a neuroscientist at the University of California in Berkeley, who has already started tinkering with the proteins in her own lab.

James and Linda Rogers
One year after his lifesaving gift of a kidney for her in 2004
James Rogers had watched his wife face challenge after challenge with her health. Linda originally had a kidney transplant in 1995 using a deceased donor kidney. Although James was supportive through it all, he could only do so much to help her. However, when doctors told his wife that she needed yet another kidney transplant, James did more than offer his support. He offered her new life. James Rogers of Lake Forest is one of a growing number of living kidney donors. Today's living donors do not have to be blood related, which gives friends and spouses, like James, the chance to give a loved one a gift like no other.
"My wife has regained her health and quality of life," says James. "When I saw her after the surgery, I broke down and cried," he recalls. "She felt and looked so much better with a healthy kidney again."
Linda and James also have a special place in their heart for those who helped them through the transplant experience. "From the doctors to the nurses on the floor, everyone provided such wonderful, compassionate care," says Linda.
However, after delivering her second child at the age of 33, Ritcha's kidney problems worsened and she experienced complete kidney failure. She turned to her six siblings for help, but Elly was the only donor match.
Father Elly, who was then living in the Philipines, journeyed to St. Joseph Hospital for the surgery. On December 21, 1990, Father Elly and his sister underwent the surgery for the kidney transplant. Father Elly remembers the day like it was yesterday. After waking from surgery, he asked the nurse if his sister was okay. The nurse responded, "Of course she is okay, she received a holy kidney from a priest." Both siblings have remained in great health ever since the transplant. Today, Ritcha is a nurse in Saudi Arabia.
Three months following surgery, Father Elly applied to be a chaplain at St. Joseph Hospital, the same place where the surgery took place and, has been a priest there ever since. To this day, St. Joseph Hospital continuously asks Father Elly to share his experience and provide guidance to living donors. His message is, "God does not want your organs in heaven. He doesn't need your body; he only needs your soul."
As a result of his organ donation and his work at St. Joseph Hospital over the past 15 years, Father Elly was honored by St. Joseph Hospital and One Legacy, a nonprofit transplant donor network serving 18 million people throughout Southern California. As an honoree, he rode on the 2007 Donate Life Rose Parade Float. In fact, he was the first priest ever to do so.
Father Elly and others have made a life-saving difference through organ donation.

Screenvision & Dobi Film Bring PLEASE SUBSCRIBE: A DOCUMENTARY ABOUT YOUTUBERS To Cinemas Nationwide For A One-time Showing On February 5
Screenvision, a national leader in cinema advertising sales, services and content distribution, has teamed up with Dobi Film to bring PLEASE SUBSCRIBE: A DOCUMENTARY ABOUT YOUTUBERS, to cinemas across the U.S. for a special one-time-only release February 5 at 7:30PM. Sponsored by MyDamnChannel and Digitour 2013, the film takes you into the lives of MysteryGuitarMan (over 2.1 million subscribers), SeaNanners (over 1.4 million subscribers) and others who make a living producing and distributing their videos on YouTube. It gives an exclusive look and explores the phenomenon behind some of the most influential and unique content creators currently taking the world of online entertainment by storm. Confirmed listings and links to book tickets can be found at PleaseSubscribeFilm.com.
YouTube is the third most trafficked site on the internet. Each month over 800 million people log on to watch over 3 billion hours of video. Every single minute, 72 new hours of video are uploaded to YouTube. In January 2012, Deloitte published that 9% of cable customers cancelled their service the previous year, and another 11% were considering cancelling. The way people watch entertainment is changing, and it's opening up a new world of opportunities with new names and faces.
Please Subscribe is a documentary that explains the phenomenon of some of the most influential and unique content creators raising the bar on YouTube. Through a series of intimate narrative vignettes, the film explores the different journeys taken by some of the medium's top creators to get where they are today. The film focuses on one main question that is "What makes a YouTuber?" Ask anyone in the community and they will each provide a different answer. No one thing makes a YouTuber, but rather it's the journey these creators have taken to pave their own unique path. Featured channels include MyDamnChannel's Daily Grace, Hannah Hart , YouTube News! (Will of DC), MysteryGuitarMan, Hello Everyone! (SeaNanners), livelavalive ( Mitchell Davis ), Wheezy Waiter, and PogoBat ( Dan Brown ). The event will be promoted almost entirely via social media, fueled by the nearly six million subscribers following the featured cast, as well as regional video bloggers who will set up local Meet-ups at screenings in their areas.
Darryl Schaffer, EVP of Exhibitor Relations, Screenvision said: "YouTube is part of the most important changes in media today. We're excited to bring some of YouTube's premiere bloggers to the big screen."

Be bold and might forces will come to your aid.
Recently I found a report I wrote about me in pre-school. It was super short (I was 4), so I am going to recreate it here. "About Me." - My name is Elizabeth. I love my dog, my mom, and my daddy. I love pink. I like to be at my house. My best friend is really nice. My favorite place to visit is Disney. I like to eat. I spend a lot of time helping my brother with his homework. So, 29 years later and all the same things are true except the bit about the homework, so I guess some things never change. I like movies and t.v., good food, exploring the city, and laying low. I was born and raised in Philly and I love it. I love the summer and I'm nice, compassionate, smart, and fun. I'm well read, and educated. Easy to please. I always try to follow the golden rule. I'm one of those people other people tell their deep dark secrets to - so I guess I am trust worthy. I have a back bone, a wish bone, and a funny bone - you should also. Must like to stay in and watch good movies and cuddle. MEN, if interested, send me a message. PS - There's no crying in baseball.
Coffee and conversation , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Performing arts , Playing cards , Travel/Sightseeing , Video games , Watching sports
Running, Walking / Hiking, Yoga
I exercise 1-2 times per week.
I have Dogs
Charlotte is a golden retriever. She lives with my parents.
Middle of the Road
I like to go where it is warm. Anywhere that it is warm makes me happy.
Puppies, old movies, boys that smell nice, the beach, cuddling, punctuality, napping, thunderstorms, ties, chivalry, Christmas morning, pj's, and summer
On the weekends I like to visit my family/dog, run, go to yoga, go dinner, hang out with friends, go to a Phillies game. I definitely like to stay in and lay low sometimes, especially with the right person, or scrub it and go the movies
I love my kindle. I also love a romance novel on vacation. Don't judge. haha.

Abuja, Kaduna, Jos, Kano — Religious leaders, human rights activists and opposition politicians yesterday faulted President Jonathan's plan to introduce a birth control law, saying it was an admission of failure of his government.
Jonathan on Tuesday said while inaugurating a new board of the National Population Commission that the nation needed a law to control population growth, which he said was hampering economic planning.
Christian and Muslim leaders who spoke to Daily Trust yesterday said both religions reject legislating on birth control.
"Our religion doesn't sanction implementation of a law on the number of children that one should produce," Reverend Chris Dariya, the secretary of ECWA churches in Zaria, said.
"It is economic reason that makes people to limit the number of their children. But if one can afford producing four, five or more children, then there shouldn't be any barrier," he added.
Chief Imam of the Tudun Jukun Juma'at mosque in Zaria, Sheikh Aliyu Abdullahi Telex, said failure of government to effectively utilise human and natural resources, rather than population growth, is the country's problem.
"China has the largest population in the world yet it is now one of the fastest developing countries," he told Daily Trust yesterday. "Ethiopia is one of the countries with smallest populations but it is among the poorest."
"Religiously, Islam cannot sanction such a law because it amounts to taking the powers of Allah into one's hand.... Islam does not put a limitation on the number of children one should produce," Sheikh Aliyu added.
Plateau State chairman of Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Rev Phillip Dafes Mwelbish, said by initiating a birth control bill, President Jonathan will be acting against the Biblical injunction that says, 'Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.'
"The Bible says go into the world and replenish it," Mwelbish added. "It isn't God's wish to restrain childbirth."
Leader of the Jama'atu Nasril Islam in Jos North, Dr Abdulrahaman Lawal, said, "Child control in Islam is forbidden; Islam only permits child-spacing and birth management."
He said Islam permits birth management only when giving birth will be detrimental to the life of the mother or in the case of a woman who has several caesarean sections and is advised by a medical doctor to stop having children because it could be life threatening.
A Kano-based Islamic scholar, Sheikh Aminudeen Abubakar, said "To bring about the issue of birth control while we are in a democracy would not be good for the government. Every Nigerian has the right to live his life the way he likes so long as he will not infringe on other peoples' rights."
"If government will bring a law that is asking us to space our children we can do that because spacing to allow for wellbeing of the child is acceptable in Islam but to control the children one would have, is an infringement on our rights as Muslim," he added.
For his part, CAN chairman in Kano, Bishop Ransome Bello, said there was no biblical law that talks about controlling the number of children a Christian should have.
But he added: "If for economic reason or any reason a person decides to limit the number of children he would be able to cater for, there will not be problem in that."
Reps won't approve bill
Members of the House of Representatives yesterday said they would not approve any birth control bill that might be presented to them by President Jonathan.
Speaking to Daily Trust, Rep. Muktari Kura (PDP, Kano) said, "We are not going to pass it because it is against our culture and religion."
For her part, Rep. Nnenna Elendu Ukeje (PDP, Abia) said, "I don't think it is proper to bring it now. The Catholic church will resist it because Catholicism plays great role where these issues are concerned. We must be careful about this."
Rep. Mu'azu Lawal (ANPP, Zamfara) said, "Population is not a problem or the cause of our set back because China with its 1.3 billion population is the second largest economy today and they are developing. The US is 300 million yet population is not an issue to them."
Rep. Bilyaminu Yusuf Shinkafi (PDP, Kebbi) berated the President for concentrating on "trivial issues" when there are serious issues that deserve to be given attention. "May be people close to the President are misleading him," he added.
But Rep. Abike Dabiri-Erewa (ACN, Lagos) declined to comment on the matter until she sees the bill.
