The people of Sri Lanka have made the cause of democracy proud by handing a humiliating defeat to President Mahinda Rajapaksa, ending 10 years of authoritarian rule. Mr Rajapaksa called an early election, and lost to his former health minister Maithripala Sirisena-despite his last-minute attempts to rope Bollywood stars into his campaign and desperate appeals to vote for the "known devil".
Promoting Prejudice, Poisoning Minds - Parivar's intrusions into education
If there's one thing that the 102nd Indian Science Congress, held in Mumbai, will be remembered for, it's the outrageous claims made at it about the achievements of science in ancient India, including the assertion that Indians between 7000 and 6000 BC knew how to make airplanes that could undertake "interplanetary travel", and fly backwards and sideways, as well as forwards!
Mufti seriously risks loosing the plot in Kashmir
The Bharatiya Janata Party's national leadership has officially confirmed that it's in talks with the People's Democratic Party to form a coalition government in Jammu and Kashmir. This proposal is endorsed by a surprisingly large number of self-avowed well-wishers of the Kashmiri people, as well as cynical "realists" who believe that such a coalition of extremes, between India's unitarian-nationalists and the Kashmir Valley's "soft-separatists", is J&K's best chance of having a stable government which paves the way for its greater integration into India. The parties' respective core-bases, Jammu and the Valley, they argue, "complement" each other. Arithmetically too, the two — with respectively 25 and 28 seats — would command a solid majority in the 87-seat Assembly.
Why the PDP should not ally with the BJP in Jammu and Kashmir
By allying with the BJP, Mufti risks becoming Kashmir's version of the Palestinian Authority's Mahmoud Abbas, powerless against Israel's occupation, yet legitimising it and dependent on it. The PDP will almost certainly suffer a rout soon. But it will have helped Modi to strut about the world for having fully coopted J&K's Muslims in an "inclusive" arrangement, and whitewashed his own terrible record in Gujarat and beyond. What a coup that would be for the RSS-BJP!
Hindutva Trumps 'Development': BJP's real agenda
Some commentators have deplored the conferment of India's highest civilian honour, the Bharat Ratna, on Madan Mohan Malaviya, but many have welcomed its award to the Sangh Parivar's first Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee. The latter include even Amartya Sen, himself a Bharat Ratna and Nobel Laureate, who called Mr Vajpayee a "great statesman" while expressing some reservations about his policies, but praising the "human quality" behind "his leadership".
How the Parivar is taking over institutions in education and culture (Parts I and II)
A hallmark of the Modi government's first 200 days in office is the beginning of the Sangh Parivar's Long March through the Institutions of the State, in particular bodies that deal with education and culture. The Parivar's agenda is to influence their working to reflect its own specific brand of "cultural nationalism" by engineering long-term changes in their programmes and priorities, and making key appointments of personnel who will loyally execute such changes.
Lessons From The Peshawar Attack: Isolate all extremists
It's humanly impossible not to be revolted by the killing of 134 innocent children in Peshawar by Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and not to feel a surge of empathy with Pakistani citizens. This barbaric attack galvanised unprecedented solidarity demonstrations and vigils in South Asian cities.
After Peshawar: Seize the peace opportunity
India can make this a unique moment for South Asia too by reaching out to Pakistan with earnest proposals for cooperation—whether in fighting terrorism, aggressively promoting trade, or stabilising Afghanistan. This entails a sea-change in the official mindset—from regarding Pakistan as an enemy to be vanquished, to a potentially friendly neighbour, with whom contentious issues can be peacefully resolved. India must not squander this opportunity.
Parivar's Re-Conversion Offensive: Nasty threat to citizenship
The Sangh Parivar has made a habit out of raking up divisive issues which most people thought were settled at the time of Indian Independence or shortly thereafter. For instance, India adopted Parliamentary democracy in preference to the presidential system after much debate. But the unitarian, pro-centralisation Bharatiya Janata Party has always been partial to the presidential form despite its unsuitability for a huge and diverse country like India.
INDE – L'intouchabilité continue à prospérer
A la question "Accepteriez-vous qu'un dalit entre dans votre cuisine ou qu'il utilise vos ustensiles de cuisine?", 27% des Indiens répondent NON! Telle est une des réponses qui ressort de l'Enquête sur le développement humain en Inde (IHDS-2) dont les premiers résultats sont diffusés dans la presse indienne. Le texte qui suit se base sur un article de Praful Bidwai (*) paru le 15 décembre 2014 dans le Kashmir Times.
Untouchability Thrives In India: Fighting the caste menace
It's fashionable in some circles to claim that discrimination based on caste has steadily decreased in India, as it's bound to, thanks to modernisation, urbanisation and industrialisation. The character of caste is itself changing from a system of social hierarchy based on birth and ritual purity, to a political phenomenon. As India evolves into a "merit-based" society, the argument goes, there can be no place for untouchability vis-à-vis Dalits (Scheduled Castes) in it.
The Janata Parivar 2.0 Initiative: Real hope or illusion?
Among the more interesting recent developments in Indian politics is the attempt to regroup fragments of the old Janata Parivar and launch a new, reunified party which recreates the once-powerful Socialist current in politics. Long a part of the Left, this current was second in importance only to the Communists until the 1970s.
India-Pakistan: Courting yet more nuclear danger?
Eighteen years after it rejected the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty, the Indian government remains implacably hostile to it, and bristles even at attempts to raise the issue of its entry into force (EIF). This was demonstrated again last week when a member of an eminent persons' group, established by the Preparatory Commission for the CTBT Organisation to promote EIF, visited India. He was given the cold shoulder by the foreign ministry. India professes a commitment to global nuclear disarmament, but doesn't support an important, indispensable, step towards abolishing these mass-destruction arms — the only weapons which can exterminate all life on earth, and against which there's no real defence.
Fighting The New Green War: Medha Patkar's contribution
Nobody has made a greater contribution to building such a grassroots movement than Medha Patkar who turns 60 on December 1. Patkar is best known globally as the leader of the Narmada Bachao Andolan, one of the world's greatest ecological mass mobilisations. She is also the founder of the National Alliance of People's Movements, comprising over 250 grassroots groups active in more than 15 Indian states on a range of civil-political and social rights issues.
Hindutva: Back to the Savarkar-Hedgewar ideal?
Nothing in Indian politics has dismayed me recently as much as a report (The Hindu, November 22) on the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh's success in attracting 600 middle-class professional families in Noida to a late-night education-cum-entertainment event featuring preacher Satyanarayan Mourya. Each family paid Rs300 to attend it. Mourya is a crasser version of Ritambhara. He speaks (http://communalism.blogspot.in/2014/11/india-rss-outreach-show-with-baba.html) execrable language while attacking Muslims, and invokes Hindutva pride by claiming that ancient India gave the world geometry and airplanes, besides mastering space and nuclear technologies, achievements that today's youth have all but forgotten under the evil influence of modern Western culture.
Modi's Reshuffle & Maharashtra Mess: Politics gets more cynical
All those who expected Prime Minister Narendra Modi to deliver on his election-campaign promise of cleaning up Indian politics of money power and crime, making a break with short-term caste-and-community calculations, and placing merit above personal loyalty, would be sorely disappointed at his cabinet reshuffle, including the induction of 21 new ministers.
The Wall collapsed, but capitalism hasn't delivered
The collapse of the Berlin Wall 25 years ago abruptly brought to a close what the historian Eric Hobsbawm famously called the "Short 20th Century"—short both because it began late, with the Russian Revolution of 1917, and because the historic epoch it marked ended a decade before the century's close. Humanity's greatest success in overthrowing capitalism in one country, and making its working people arbiters of their own fate by creating new modes of organisation of society and economy and a novel state form, ended in catastrophe as the USSR disintegrated and international socialism effectively ceased to exist.
Why The Right To Dissent Is Indispensable: Romila Thapar speaks out
When Bharatiya Janata Party leader LK Advani famously said of the media during the Emergency that "when asked to bend, they crawled", he received widespread praise from the intelligentsia and even from people opposed to the BJP's ideology—because he spoke the truth about the loss of independence and professional integrity on the part of the Fourth Estate and other institutions. Today, not just the media, but leaders from the fields of education, culture, healthcare and law, are crawling before the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh without even being asked to bend
Successful professionals or rank mercenaries?
I'm glad to be an Indian, but I'm not a chest-thumping nationalist. I can understand and appreciate why many Indians (or for that matter, other nationals) emigrate and become naturalised citizens of other, typically developed, states. What I find it hard to understand is why some of them choose to represent their adopted homelands' governments as officials, even ambassadors, to the countries of their origin.
An Emerging New Social Coalition?: The BJP's latest victories
With its impressive performance in the Maharashtra and Haryana Assembly elections, the Bharatiya Janata Party has clearly reconfirmed its status, established by the Lok Sabha elections, as the principal pole or central point of reference in Indian politics. Behind its latest success, and not least its marginalisation of established regional parties in the two states, lie medium- and long-term factors which are likely to influence Indian politics for some time to come.

• What Type of Luggage To Choose ? :
It is commercially available, several types of bags and their choice should depend on the type of trip you are considering and your fitness.
Moreover, by plane, train or car, your suitcase has to be "flexible", that is to say, adapted to your needs and the type of trip.
• Carry-on luggage:
This is the baggage you are allowed to keep with you in the cabin during your flight.
Practical, carry-on luggage will save your time by not waiting when checking and when claiming your baggage, in condition it does not exceed the weight and size allowed by your company.
Ideal for a weekend ! It will also allow you to keep your belongings whether valuables, also hygiene and health products.
• Checked luggage:
These are the most appropriate formats for long stays, their capacity allows you to carry a large amount of personal belongings.
Because they are checked luggage you don't want to pack them very heavily unless you have extra money to pay the overweight fee.
Note that there is bags with a bellows system constrained by a zipper, that release extra volume.
• Rolling Luggage:
This suitcase has emerged since the 70's and still has not lost its notoriety. It is equipped with two or four wheels and a telescopic handle to move it.
This case is very convenient to get around in the corridors of the airport and on the dock. By adopting it, you put away any muscle pain due to the weight and movement.
That said, it can happen that you are forced to lift to overcome obstacles or climb stairs. Regarding the handle, think about to make sure it is resistant, comfortable and secure.
• Backpack / Wheeled Backpack:
This type of luggage can be of great use. You can if you wish, wear it on your back or dragging it on the floor on its casters. It will please you if you are an adventurer looking for a handy suitcase.

• Grand measuring approximately 30 x 20 x 12 inches.
To know the permitted sizes for your carry on luggage, remember to inquire directly with your company. There is no weight limit in the U.S, so at least you should lift the bag yourself in the overhead storage but you need to check if there is weight restriction for international airlines.
Authorized weight for checked luggage varies from one airline to another, it is limited to 50 pounds in the U.S and for any extra weight a fee will be applied. This weight rule changes between companies so check with yours before packing.

• Which Luggage Material ? :
Technological advances are such that as we know today, new materials used in the manufacture of suitcases provide the opportunity for manufacturers to mix strength and lightness.
The most recent cases are manufactured based on "curv" or polycarbonate:
• The curv is a very light and resistant material. It allows the manufacture of exceptional suitcases, essential for air travel.
• As for bags designed with polycarbonate, they certainly will make you happy because they are both very strong and soft.
• To grant more flexibility in their suitcases, manufacturers use today very similar materials fabrics used to make bullet vests.
• Soft-Sided or Hard-Sided Luggage ? :
The issue is important because of the various treatments to which the suitcases go through from check-in to the cargo hold.
Given this situation, it would be wise to opt for a hard case, shock resistant and soft, not to be a weight you need to hang around.
• Soft-Sided:
They are generally manufactured from ballistic nylon and polyester. Both materials are very durable.
Ballistic nylon is an excellent material that resists tearing while remaining very lightweight.
• Hard-Sided:
Contrary to what many people think, hard-sided suitcases do not weigh more than a soft model.
They are generally manufactured based on polycarbonate or honeycomb plastic.
Obviously, if the hull of your suitcase is hard, the interior will be well and better protected !
• To check !
Buying a suitcase is a process that should not be taken lightly. Here are the characteristics to be checked prior to any purchase decision:
• Casters:
Think of to make sure your suitcase rolls properly without producing noise.
• Zippers:
To ensure proper operation, open them and close them as many times as necessary.
Think of the embarrassment that you would have if your suitcase is opened in the middle of the treadmill.
Remember to take a look at the seams: poor seam can cause a hole in the bag.
• A Lock:
If you are flying, you should definitely think of to put on your luggage. Make sure the locks work properly.
If you go to North America, be sure to choose TSA approved locks. Without this, the customs will force your suitcase and you might find it in poor condition.
Get The Best Luggage Lock For Travel Safety and Security Here:
The TSA Accepted Cable Luggage Lock For A Cheaper Price:
• Thickness of Fabric or Shell:
Do not forget to pay attention to the thickness and density of textiles, in the case of a soft case. The more they are thick and dense, the more they can withstand shocks.
• Maintain The Suitcase :
Maintain your suitcase is an important task and very simple to perform:
• So after a long trip, you will have to think about ventilate your suitcase.
• To restore its shine, a damp cloth is sufficient to clean the exterior. For the interior, you should use a vacuum cleaner.
• If you notice in your suitcase unpleasant smells, you will need to wash it with a mixture of white vinegar and water. Then put it to dry out.
Going on vacation is always the walk but also when we go fully equipped, there is every chance in the meanwhile for a pleasant journey !

text: New to the game and I like it, hope it does well. But seems to me this game has a major, major problem: it is near impossible to differentiate friendlies from enemies, and this must be especially true for the significant minority of persons with red/green colorblindness, properly called color deficiency. The problem is this: the hue/color of the character models simply are not vivid enough to distinguish between friend and foe. And this is gamebreaking for those with even mild forms of color deficiency. I have a mild version of color deficiency. Can see regular reds and greens just fine. But once those colors are particularly faint or light (or especially dark), it is impossible -- impossible -- to tell them apart. This is genetic, causing the colors to appear very similar and impossible to distinguish. For people with more severe forms, you need a vivid red or green to assist them. Think traffic light red and green. In PS2, it is pretty gamebreaking. I have looked at all three factions side-by-side multiple times since launch, and I cannot tell them apart. I say again, I cannot tell the difference between friend and foe, because the selected hue and color scheme makes all players appear identical. Again, this is because the colors appear identical across factions. Oh, and the same is true for vehicles as well, no matter the faction, all vehicles have the same mushy color appearance. Badges do not help, either due to distance, speed of play, positioning, etc. Also, the game appears to lack a vivid green nameplate for friends, and a vivid red nameplate for enemies. If there is some distinguishing color or characteristic, it is so faint (or fails to appear during fast action) that it isn't working, at least not for me. And given the number of times I've died to friendly fire, it isn't working for a significant minority of the new playerbase. For those with more severe color deficiency, I have no idea how they can discern friends, enemies, or even the map colors. This needs to be addressed, and quickly. So I hope the creators get on this, and get on this quick. It would take one day, and not a lot of money, for the developers to consult with a color specialist and get recommendations on three specific hues that even those with severe color deficiency could easily discern. This could be accomplished in a day, no exaggeration. Second and final step would be to add distinguishing nameplates so that friends have one color, enemies another, and it is vivid and visible. This issue is very well known and is regularly addressed across many different businesses. Finally, this isn't an idle complaint. Color deficiency affects around 8% of the American population, a majority of them are men. Hence not only does this affect tens of millions of Americans, and who knows how many people worldwide, it disproportionately affects the PS2 playerbase, I would imagine. And if I, with a mild color deficiency, find this issue gamebreaking, I just know tens of thousands of other players also are affected. So here's to hoping for a very quick and immediate fix via patch, which will only inure to SOE's benefit. And I conclude by saying this is a request for help from someone who really likes the game thus far, thinks it is very well done, is fun to play, and thinks this type of genre is the future for online gaming.

Re: The Revolution pilot is online now...
I've taken Miles willingness to help Charlie as him looking for redemption for all of the stuff he did as General of the militia. We didn't learn everything thing about The Blackout yet, but I thought they set up some pretty interesting stuff in last night's ep. I'm definitely getting the impression Randal was part of something bigger, who will probably end up being the show's big bad once Monroe has been dealt with.
As for the episode itself, I really enjoyed it. I enjoyed getting more world building for the Monroe militia, and it was nice getting to spend a little more time with Rachel. I'm curious where things will go now that Miles & Charlie know about the pendant and what it can do. I'm also wondering if there are any Monroe survivors from the boat or lighthouse that can report back about the power coming on.
They say a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, but it is not one half so bad as a lot of ignorance. - Terry Pratchett,

Fortuño: Romney would be good for PR
Im convinced that Puerto Rico needs help equal to the states so our economies can grow, Fortuño said. We have been able to close the gap with states, but we need help from Washington and that will come with Romney as president.
Fortuño, a rising star in the national Republican Party and head of the islands statehood New Progressive Party, will give a prime-time speech at the GOP convention in Tampa on Wednesday night. The governors speech on Wednesday will focus on jobs.
For us its all about job creation, Fortuño said. He said that for U.S. Hispanics it is all about the economy and the need to improve the jobs numbers.
He endorsed Romney during the Republican presidential primary back in February, citing the former Massachusetts governors pledge to push statehood for Puerto Rico.
Romney is committed to our push for equality, to statehood for Puerto Rico, Fortuño said Tuesday. He is committed to providing the leadership lacking in Washington.
The Puerto Rico governor said the Republican Party platform includes aid for single mothers, veterans, the elderly and strong educational planks.
Fortuño is seeking a second term as governor. His chief rival, Popular Democratic Party gubernatorial candidate Alejandro García Padilla, is a national Democrat who backs President Barack Obamas bid for a second term.
García Padilla and other PDP leaders have blasted Fortuño for his support of Romney, pointing mostly to the billions in federal funding Puerto Rico stands to lose if Republicans make good on their pledge to overturn Obamas national health reform.
Fortuños running mate, Resident Commissioner Pedro Pierluisi, is a national Democrat who has stumped for Obama in Florida.
Residents of Puerto Rico, while American citizens, cant vote for president because the island isnt a state.

We take a surreal trip into the dressing up box of the British Artist in advance of the Frieze Art Fair
'Seal, seal, dress, dress, dress, fire.' Spartacus Chetwynd is doing a quick costume check before she and her accompanying gang of five get into their gear for our Time Out art issue cover shoot. Also in Chetwynd's dressing-up bag are multicoloured face paints, gold leaf, long lengths of wig hair, a latex frog, a large pink salamander and two big beanbags; when tied on with tape these last two items give the surreal seal characters their big bellies. All of these are put on in an atmosphere of fun that feels more like getting ready for a fancy-dress party than preparing for a performance at London's biggest annual art event.

OwnDoc means: "Be your own doctor" – Hippocrates' advice! Sarah Vaughter is a dermaneedling expert and an investigative blogger regarding health matters. She wrote the free, non-commercial book (available as a PDF) "When ALS is Lyme", on Lyme being the cause of ALS in at least 15% of cases, supported by medical- and obituary research as well as a wealth of circumstantial evidence. Her articles on this site reflect her "special interests" (a peculiarity of her Asperger's syndrome). Psychology enthousiasts can download her test results here. Her Myers-Briggs personality type is INTJ. INTJ (more info) is by far the rarest personality type (1.5%), and has overlap with Asperger's (0.25%).
Female INTJ's are extremely rare (0.8%) and aspies are only 0.25% of the population but we have another female INTJ aspie in our midst: Jessika Endsley writes for us on OwnShrink.com.
Sarah has a history of chronic Lyme neuroborreliosis and her husband John, a Chemistry Ph.D., is a survivor of a life-threatening systemic Candidiasis infection of his kidneys. This website is the result of many years of researching their own health- and skin issues. They wanted to put their obsession for correlating large amounts of scientific data to use.
Asperger's hiring policy
Since 2007, we seek out people with Asperger's syndrome to work with us, usually as independent contractors. Seems like other companies are following our lead. Even Microsoft went aspie-hunting.

Her scientific literature research and original research on neurospirochetoses as a cause for common neurological syndromes with unknown etiology is the most comprehensive available and has been "Facebook liked" by more than a hundred thousand people, including microbiologists, journalists and medical doctors. Sarah writes articles on health and beauty, exposes scams, puts the spotlight on researchers that need our support and she likes to dig up new facts and lesser-known truths about health issues.

Asphalt Driveway
by Scott B , 11/18/2011
We called for a estimate to replace our driveway. A estimator called back the same day and scheduled a time to meet the next day. The estimator was on time, courteous, and knowledgeable. We had 2 other bids and decided on Richfield Blacktop to do our driveway replacement. Within 2 weeks we had our new driveway which looks great.They were very professional to deal with and had a good experience. I would reccomend to anyone that wants a quality job done right.

I only have one small bit of advice. If you are going SS reels spend a little extra cash. I used Paterson reels, FR tanks and reels, Agfa-loadall 120 & 35mm tanks and in college SS. I never liked SS reels for loading. I even tried the special loading tools you feed the leader through and still had a bitch of a time loading them. I'd always have some of those half-moon crease or film touching spots. I like the idea of easy cleanup and almost instant heat transfer, but that was it. Then I kept reading about these Hewes SS reels and how they worked so much better than anything else. Well, I had always used Nikkor reels and thought they had to be the best so what's the big difference. A while back, when darkroom gear was almost given away on eBay, I came across some Hewes reels in 35mm and 120. I got lucky a won them and now I'm a very happy camper. I know all those SS reels look the same, but I can tell you they are not all created equal. I will use nothing but Hewes reels ever again. Yes, I know it's hard to believe there can be that much difference, but there really is. If it wasn't for Hewe's I'd be using Paterson plastics. Oh, and I sold my CPP2 w/ lift 'cause I didn't do color anymore and the B&W I do is just fine by hand. Hewes reels are the answer! JohnW
I should add that the Hewes reel are the answer for me. You might be different in your view of them since they are much more expensive, but sometimes one gets what one pays for.

George Korda: The view from Lee Harvey Oswald's sniper's perch
When I opened the window from which Lee Harvey Oswald shot President John F. Kennedy and looked down on the death street below, I remember involuntarily saying quietly, "Oh, my."
Just a few yards away, on Nov. 22, 1963, 50 years ago this week, the 35th President of the United States was gunned down from the very spot in which I knelt.
It seemed so close it felt as if I could throw a rock and hit a car at the spot Kennedy's limousine occupied when he was struck by Oswald's bullets. Oswald was a U.S.Marines-trained shooter with a telescopic sight on his rifle. From this vantage point it wasn't a mystery why he succeeded.
It was the summer of 1984. I was in Dallas and walked over to the Texas School Book Depository Building to see if I could visit the infamous sixth floor.
Two ladies sat in an office just to the right after entering the building. They were with an organization raising money for a museum. I asked if visiting the sniper's perch was a possibility. No, they said, unless you are an accredited member of the news media.
I was working at the time as press secretary in a U.S. Senate race, so I got on the phone to a friend of mine back in Tennessee who owned a newspaper. Yes, I could write a guest column, he said. He confirmed it with the ladies, and moments later we were on our way upstairs.
Our first stop was the second floor. It was in use by Dallas County government. Passing a small room to our left, the lady said that in 1963 it was the break room where Oswald was seen just before he fled the building.
Moments later we were ascending an old wooden staircase, and she explained that these were the stairs down which Oswald ran after the shooting.
When we emerged onto the sixth floor, she pointed to the floor by the first window on the right and said, "This was where his rifle was found behind some boxes." The 6.5 millimeter, Italian-made military rifle was therefore placed diagonally across the building from the window I'd come to see.
I wondered if Oswald was so mentally frantic with what he'd done that he carried the rifle across the room without realizing what he was doing. Or did he somehow think that it would be harder for authorities to find?
We'll never know.
The large room was empty except for a pile of artifacts in the center from the day of the assassination.
The place had a musty smell, typical of a warehouse. We walked to the window. It was closed, so I reached down and lifted it open.
I looked down and imagined people crowding both sides of the street below. In my mind's eye the presidential limousine made the turn to take it in front of the School Book Depository. In a few seconds it would be under the well-known triple underpass a little farther on, and safety.
I recalled William Manchester's book, "Death of a President," who using artistic license speculated what at that moment might have been going through Oswald's mind from his Marine Corps marksmanship training: "Ready on the right, ready on the left, ready on the firing line."
I took photos. The lady was thoughtful, and didn't hurry me. I sat there for some time, just looking, and thinking. To the right was the grassy knoll. Just behind a tree obscuring that part of the knoll was where Abraham Zapruder stood making a home movie of the presidential motorcade, a few seconds of film on which are some of history's most compelling and appalling visual images.
I thought about the conspiracy theories around Kennedy's death. There are conspiracy theories for many major events: Vice President Lyndon Johnson orchestrated Kennedy's shooting; Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton and Gen. Ulysses S. Grant were behind Lincoln's assassination; President Franklin Roosevelt knew about the Dec. 7, 1941 Japanese surprise attack on Pearl Harbor and let it happen; the U.S. never landed astronauts on the moon; all the so-called landings were shot on a soundstage somewhere in New Mexico.
The Kennedy conspiracy theories are multipliers of multipliers: the Mafia killed him; the CIA killed him; the Cubans killed him; the Russians killed him; the FBI killed him; or some combination of this list killed him. And even that is only a partial list of conspirators, according to conspiracy theorists.
But sometimes the simplest answer is correct.
Finished, we made our way back downstairs. My experience can't be duplicated today because the museum was eventually built. Oswald's sniper's lair was re-created as it looked on that day, and glassed off.
Back on the street on the day I visited, I looked back up at the sixth-floor window. Just pieces of wood and glass separating a dusty warehouse room from the rest of the world.
A place that changed the world forever.

Beyonce performs during the Super Bowl XLVII Halftime Show, February 3
"He leans back, tea at his side, legs crossed, to explain what he thinks just happened. 'It was easy to think that maybe 2008 was the anomaly,' he says. 'And I think 2012 was an indication that, no, this is not an anomaly. We've gone through a very difficult time. The American people have rightly been frustrated at the pace of change, and the economy is still struggling, and this President we elected is imperfect. And yet despite all that, this is who we want to be.'
"He smiles. 'That's a good thing.'"
Full Time article here
Pete Souza: "The President works on his Newtown speech. Two days earlier, I photographed him when John Brennan first briefed him on the shootings. Throughout that day, he reacted as we all did, which people witnessed when he delivered his statement a few hours later. Before we headed to Newtown for the Sunday night vigil, he went to watch his daughter Sasha, 11, rehearse for her ballet performance in the Nutcracker. He was going to miss her performance that night because of the trip to Newtown. During breaks in the rehearsal, he worked on the speech. His expression in this photograph may be subtle to the viewer, but not to me. There is emotion and resolve etched on his face, and I know this was perhaps the toughest day of his Presidency."
NYT: President Obama has ordered Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. to lead an interagency group to develop a multifaceted response to last week's mass shooting at a Connecticut school, a White House official said.
Mr. Obama will appear in the White House briefing room alongside Mr. Biden at 11:45 a.m. on Wednesday to announce the assignment but an aide said they will not announce any major policy decisions. Instead, the aide said the president will lay out a process for developing new policies.

Greg Sargent: I continue to be cautiously — or perhaps foolishly — optimistic that we may really see Democrats attempt gun law reform in the wake of the Newtown carnage, and today brings fresh reasons for that optimism.
At the White House briefing, press secretary Jay Carney confirmed that President Obama supports Senator Dianne Feinstein's proposal to renew the assault weapons ban, which she intends to introduce on the first day of the new Congress.
Here's more: A top member of the Senate Democratic leadership tells me Dems are very likely to introduce a whole package of reforms — not just the assault weapons ban; that plus a host of other initiatives — during the first half of 2013.

Michael Grunwald (Time): It's really amazing to see political reporters dutifully passing along Republican complaints that President Obama's opening offer in the fiscal cliff talks is just a recycled version of his old plan, when those same reporters spent the last year dutifully passing along Republican complaints that Obama had no plan….
This isn't just cognitive dissonance. It's irresponsible reporting. Mainstream media outlets don't want to look partisan, so they ignore the BS hidden in plain sight, the hypocrisy and dishonesty that defines the modern Republican Party…..
…. we're not supposed to be stenographers. As long as the media let an entire political party invent a new reality every day, it will keep on doing it. Every day.
David Firestone (NYT): Republicans reportedly laughed when they saw the Obama administration's initial offer in the fiscal negotiations yesterday. The idea that President Obama might actually want to enact his campaign promises – tax hikes on the rich, modest Medicare cuts, investments in infrastructure – is apparently considered a joke to the party that has shown virtually no flexibility in the last four years.
But some of that laughter may contain nervousness, because there is more going on here than just a pathway to splitting the difference. The White House made clear yesterday that it is approaching these talks from a position of responsibility, and that it actually takes seriously the notion of old-fashioned bargaining. That's something Republicans have refused to do — and now they realize they've been called out.
TPM – more at Salon and The Atlantic
Deaniac (The People's View): The president is in a fighting mood. Starting today, he's barnstorming the country, getting the American people to pressure Congress to extend the middle class tax breaks, and to do so now. Yesterday, Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner presented the leaders of Congress with the Administration's opening offer. That offer is heavy on revenue, tax fairness, and Medicare savings without affecting benefits. Here's a short summary of what the president has proposed, from leaked details.
Liberal Librarian (The People's View): Yesterday's vote in the UN on Palestine has stirred a lot of emotions on the left; I've taken the time to read the responses across a few blogs this morning, and for the most part they've been considered and judicious. So here are my two pfennigs.
When the world's three most powerful faiths declare a piece of real estate "holy", that causes problems of a sort not found anywhere else. To the Jews, it is the "Promised Land", vouchsafed to them by God unto the last generation. To Muslims, it's holy because God walked in it with the Hebrew patriarchs, whom they consider earlier prophets; and, of course, they believe Muhammad made his Night Journey to heaven from the Temple Mount. To Christians, obviously, it was the land where Jesus lived, preached, and died. The deep emotional and religious attachments are not to be disregarded.
Kevin Drum (Mother Jones): There's one particular strain of Republican reaction to their election loss that's always given me the biggest chuckle, and today Paul Waldman highlights it: the absurd proposition that Mitt Romney never forthrightly defended conservative principles….
…. For months, conservatives yelled from the rooftops about how 2012 presented the sharpest choice ever in governing philosophies …. [they] claimed that this one was truly an ideological turning point, America's last chance to choose what kind of country we should be. But literally within hours of defeat, they turned on a dime and insisted that the American people weren't given a real chance to decide between two competing visions. And they've maintained this claim despite losing the popular vote in the House, the Senate, and the presidency, and despite the fact that demographic trends very clearly spell even further trouble in the future for their hardnosed brand of social intolerance and slavish dedication to the interests of the rich.

USA Today: President Obama says he's older and wiser than he was during the heady 2008 campaign, and he has a more complicated message urging voters to stick with him as the country slowly digs out of "a very deep hole" on the economy.
So is the election less fun, the second time around?
"Well, I'll tell you, it's different," he says with a slightly pained expression on his face, then offers: "But the plane is a lot nicer."
At this moment, Obama is perched on the edge of a swivel chair in his office on that nicer plane, also known as Air Force One, his shirt sleeves rolled up. On the first leg of four days of travel that will take him to the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte, he talked with USA TODAY about his Thursday acceptance speech, his policy priorities for a second term and the lessons he's learned about the need to take his case to the American people over the heads of a polarized Congress.

The bipartisan Commercial Privacy Bill of Rights would give the FTC enforcement power over data privacy requirements.
As promised, Democratic Senator John Kerry, along with Republican Senator John McCain, plan to unveil their bipartisan privacy bill tomorrow. "The Commercial Privacy Bill of Rights Act of 2011" will address both online and offline data privacy.
A draft of the bill calls for the Federal Trade Commission to establish rules requiring companies collecting personally-identifiable data such as names and email addresses to provide "clear, concise, and timely notice" of data collection, use and transfer. If passed, the law would grant the FTC oversight of a requirement that companies offer "a clear and conspicuous mechanism for opt-out consent for any unauthorized use of their personally identifiable information."
The Kerry/McCain draft would be the first comprehensive data privacy protection bill introduced in the Senate recently.
Unlike another bill introduced in the House recently by Democrat Jackie Speier, the draft of the Kerry/McCain bill does not refer specifically to do-not-track, a concept popularized by the FTC. In fact, the Kerry/McCain draft does not make specific mention of data collection and use for online advertising at all.
During a Senate Commerce Committee hearing in March, Kerry said, "Americans cannot today demand that someone who's collecting their information stop using it," and pointed to increased data collection across digital channels such as email and mobile apps as well as offline by grocery stores, hotels and airlines.
A provision is included in the draft allowing firms participating in a safe harbor program - such as an industry self-regulatory program - to offer consumer opt out from transfer of data to third parties. The FTC would approve and monitor any safe-harbor program.
The draft bill, like a related House bill sponsored by Democrat Bobby Rush, gives the FTC enforcement capabilities, and allows the agency to slap penalties on violators. It also prohibits private right of action, and calls for the Department of Commerce to work with industry and other groups in developing codes of conduct for safe harbor application.

Microsoft SharePoint 2007 or greater has included an option allowing you to open Document Libraries with Windows Explorer. This feature allows the user to open and interact with files and folders in SharePoint with Windows Explorer, just as they have done in the past with local and network files and folders. It's not uncommon for this feature to be grayed out, or give an error when a user first tries to use it.
Below are some simple steps to ensure the system is set up to successfully use this feature, as well as troubleshooting steps in the event it give an error.
- Windows XP SP3 or greater with User Account Control (UAC) disabled or set to low
- Internet Explorer 7.0 or greater (Open with Explorer will not work with any browser but Internet Explorer)
- WebClient Service must be started (Desktop Experience feature enabled for Windows 7 or 2008)
- Ensure you are logged out of SharePoint completely
- In Internet Explorer, navigate to your SharePoint site
- Log in, ensuring you select the 'Keep me signed in' checkbox (This is required to allow Internet Explorer to pass the session credentials to Windows Explorer)
- Navigate to your Document Library
- Under the tab, select and you will see the ribbon of actions for the Library (if you navigate to a Library or Folder from within a WebPart, you will have to select an item in the Document Library for the Library Tools tab to appear)
- Click
- Windows Explorer should open up displaying the contents of the Document Library (it may take a few moments to open)
There are two very common issues when attempting to use the Open with Explorer feature. The first is the easiest to solve.
Grayed Out Open with Explorer Button
To solve this, make sure you are using Internet Explorer. It's as simple as that.
The more common and difficult issue encountered when attempting to 'Open with Explorer' is the following:
"Your client does not support opening this list with Windows Explorer"
This error can be received for many reasons, and sometimes no reason at all. Below are several troubleshooting steps which can be taken in an attempt to resolve this issue. After completing the steps in teach fix, retry the button.
1. Try Again
In some instances, when you click the action will give an error on the first attempt, but will work the second time. Simply try clicking the button again and confirm whether it opens or not.
2. Restart WebClient Service
a) Click Start > Run
b) Enter 'services.msc'
c) Find the WebCient service and select Restart
3. Check Internet Explorer Version
Windows XP – 2008R2: Make sure you are using Internet Explorer version 7.0 through 9.0, in 32-bit mode. The 64-bit mode will not work with the feature.
Windows 7: Internet Explorer 10 is not yet compatible with the feature. You will need to revert to Internet Explorer 9.
Windows 8: Internet Explorer 10 is compatible, so you should not have an issue with this OS and browser version combination.
4. Add to Trusted Sites
a) Open Internet Explorer and click 'Tools' or to get to 'Internet options'
b) Select the 'Security' tab
c) Click on 'Trusted Sites'
e) Click 'Sites'
f) Add the below sites:
5. Lower UAC Setting
The User Account Control must be set to the lowest setting in order for to function. Instructions for modifying the UAC are available here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc709691(v=ws.10).aspx#BKMK_S3
6. Set Internet Explorer to Automatic Logon
a) Open Internet Explorer and click 'Tools' or to get to 'Internet options'

Child nudes were very common during the painter's final period. This one reveals Fortuny's mastery at representing nudes and the effect of light on different surfaces, including the human body and the sandy beach. It suggests the relaxed and pleasant atmosphere of a body surrendered to the sun's warmth and energy.
This painting entered the Prado Museum as part of the legacy of Ramón Errazu.

Is there any websites which provide SEO training for free or at minimal cost? :)

Is there any websites which provide SEO training for free or at minimal cost? :)
Far and away, the leader in that field is SEOBook.
Aaron has moved away from this eBook model and now offers a subscription service which provides you with over one hundred training modules.
Aaron provides a lot of video tutorials, spreadsheets, and tools.
In addition, there is a private forum where you get to talk to people like Aaron and me. :p
It's $99/mo and it's worth it.
For free, I think NetBuilder is the best place to learn SEO. :)
We have a great deal of information here. I was thinking again this morning about how to organize it to maximize usability. I think that in six to twelve months, that's going to become a major concern for us.
Thanks Will. I'll subscribe to SEOBook soon. :)
In the interim, can I talk you into telling us more about what you're looking for in terms of "SEO training"?
I'm sure we'll be adding more of that in the future, and it would be very good for us to find out what people are looking for.
I'm not sure where to start. But I think I know the basics, like having a good <title> tag and the importance of <h1> tag for page title.
What I would like to know is how to build quality contents, the magic of link building and probably keyword density. Eg. how many keywords can we have in a content, and where to place the relevant keywords, etc. :o
There should be a lot more I should learn. I'm prepared to spend the next two months doing research and readings on SEO. :D
PS. I've just started reading SEOChat.com. Is this a good site?
I found Brad Callens' Free SEO Made Easy Ebook very helpful. Along with all the tips provided here on NB gives you a really good jumpstart.
For The Tech FAQ, I have written up a set of FAQ Writing Guidelines, but those are specific to that style of writing and that niche.
Link Building Tips. :)

I've been looking at SEOBook, so I too would like to know why Will thinks its so good!

The theme of The Legend wooden roller coaster is The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, as riders race through the woods as if chased in terror by the relentless Headless Horseman. The most dramatic drops on The Legend measure 113 feet, 77 feet, and 64 feet (the 77-foot drop features the world's first spiral drop). The double helix throws riders from side to side and the disorienting finish sends Legend riders back to Ichabod Crane's one-room schoolhouse to study up on just how extreme a coaster can be! Check out these stories, videos and photos about The Legend here on our HoliBlog.
The Legend
"Whatever you do – don't look back!" That warning will haunt you as you scream your head off while riding The Legend wooden roller coaster at Holiday world. Read More »
Tips For Your Visit
- Work your way up by riding The Raven first, then The Legend ; save The Voyage for last!
- Unless you are a first-time coaster rider, ride the Voyage first for shorter lines.
- Wait times tend to be longer for the front or back seats.
- Wait till the afternoon to ride, as lines are shortest then.
- Don't forget to leave any loose items you wish to keep – especially cell phones and keys – in the designated area of the station so the Headless Horseman won't be able to snatch them from you.
- If you manage to ride with your eyes open, you'll get a lovely (if brief) view of Splashin' Safari.
- It should come as no surprise that a roller coaster themed for the Headless Horseman includes multiple "headchoppers," including four charges through low tunnels.
- This attraction is not recommended for Guests who have high blood pressure, back or neck condition, recent surgery, injury, or illness, are pregnant, prone to motion sickness or dizziness, or heart condition.
