Well I go under the assumption that the Federation is an organization that is moral and just, and not greedy and corrupt like real life empires like the British Empire. In the case of the British Empire subjugating India, it was done to steal resources under the premise that they were "enlightening" the local population.
No. Maybe to some extent, that was a factor, but to a large extent, a lot of British subjects sincerely believed that they were there to improve the way of life of the people they colonized. They assumed their cultural values were more "advanced" and more "correct," and that the natives would inevitably be happier once they assimilated.
The only reason Gandhi's campaign of passive resistance worked was because the rank and file of British subjects believed they were doing the right thing, that they were the good guys. By resisting without violence, by employing civil disobedience and accepting the consequences when they broke the law in protest, Gandhi and his followers proved that they were not unruly savages needing to be civilized, but that they were already reasonable, moral beings. And thus, when they were oppressed by the British Raj -- or subjected to brutality like the massacre at Jallianwalla Bagh -- the British people were forced to recognize that they had become the bad guys, that their good intentions had gone horribly astray, and that it had to stop.
See, this is the danger of
that you are just and moral and wise. As long as you accept that without question, you can rationalize anything you do, and dismiss any opposition as misguided. The Prime Directive isn't really about the other culture -- it's about your own culture. It's about having the humility and self-awareness to recognize that you don't have all the answers, and that even a well-intentioned effort to make another civilization's lives better according to your definitions of "better" can go horribly wrong.
I make the assumption that the Federation is not such an organization, and that Federation assistance of a primitive race might genuinely be helpful to them.
But considering them "primitive" at all is itself judgmental, condescending, and dangerous. It carries the built-in assumption that you're better and smarter than they are and thus more qualified to make decisions.
In the case of Who Watches the Watchers, the Mintakans were already at a pretty socially advanced level. Their technology might only have been at the level of prehistoric tribes, but their social way of life was actually more like the renaissance period of Earth. They themselves requested assistance (they said "but there's so much you could teach us!") but Picard shot them down saying that this too, would be interference. Sure it would be, but would it have been wrong? Those people were clearly ready to handle the knowledge. I could see them in a few decades starting to slowly integrate into the Federation.
But we can't assume that's the right or the only path for them. Just because something is your way, that doesn't make it the best way.
And no, they didn't "request assistance." That's more of that condescending, White Man's Burden thinking, the reflexive interpretation of other cultures as needy and dependent on your superior benevolence. What they did was to
seek knowledge
. They wanted to learn more about the universe. But sometimes the worst thing you can do for someone seeking to learn is to just hand them the answers. Then they won't develop, or retain, the skills to learn those answers for themselves. And who's to say they won't find new answers that never occurred to us? Again, just because something is our way doesn't make it the only possible right way.
Reminds me of the movie "When the Earth Stood Still" where a sort of "Federation" sends a representative giving humanity an ultimatum regarding its nuclear technology. That is considered a classic masterpiece pretty much unanimously. If it had been Star Trek's Federation, no one would have ever been sent at all.
Nor should they have been. The society Klaatu belonged to was horribly dystopian if you think about it. Everyone lives in mortal terror of the robot masters who will annihilate them if they lift a finger in violence? That's not a peaceful, enlightened society, that's galactic slavery.
And really, Klaatu is very much an embodiment of colonial-era assumptions and attitudes, the wise, stern, paternalistic figure who comes into a more backward society and gives them the soft-sell for converting to his ways while letting them know that they'll be forced to conform if they don't voluntarily embrace the "right" way of doing things. In light of modern, post-colonial thinking, it's a rather problematical film conceptually, though it's still one of the greats.
I think the PD needs to have more leeway in letting Star Fleet captains make decisions based on common sense. I think it's implied that usually when a captain breaks the PD, if he can make a good case as to why, most of the time the Federation forgives the act.
Now, that I'll agree with. An absolute "never interfere" rule isn't wisdom, it's just using rigid legalism as a substitute for judgment. The point of the PD is to teach us humility, to help us recognize our own limitations and fallibility so that we don't blindly impose on another society in the name of what we assume is right. But as long as we have that self-awareness, we can nonetheless recognize circumstances where it can be valuable to offer our help, within limits.

I hope Blake Lively finds love and happiness with someone her own age to settle down with.
i have to say, blake lively seems to have a lot of game.
she is the first of leo's gals who doesn't come across as the frustrated one after the relationship ends, but rather turned the tables on him and now he looks like the dumped one.
real deal female player, i like it.
also, you can't deny that she and ryan reynolds look nice together. he seems like a better fit than leo in my opinion!
I do deny that Blake and Ryan look nice together. They do not compliment each other, and Sandra is a beautiful woman. Blake does not have that quality. But you do get what you ask for. Be I do think that Sandra is a better choice. Nothing good will come out of the thing between Ryan and Blake. Trust me. It is just a gut feeling.
I hope tha Ryan and Sandra get together. Blake Lively is not the one. She maybe younger than Sandra that is about all. Sandra is a very spiritual woman.

Hear My Cry Oh Lord
View MRSPINCKNEY's Sparkpage
View All Blog Entries from MRSPINCKNEY
Wednesday, January 18, 2012
I wanted to share what the Lord placed on my heart today. I am not sure who may be in need of it, but here goes.
Hear My Cry Oh Lord
Psalm 40:1 (NLT) I waited patiently for the LORD to help me, and he turned to me and heard my cry.
What do you do when things you have been waiting on to transpire, seems to be at a standstill? What do you do when it seems your prayers are not being answered? Feelings of rejection begin to fill your soul and your heart becomes weighted under the pressure. What do you do when you don�t know what else to do? Everyone is offering advice and words of encouragement, but nothing they say speaks to that void on the inside of you. You feel as though you are spiraling out of control into a great sea of despair. You feel as though you are hanging on by a thread and one little push could push you over the brink. Look up! Don�t despair. Even when things look like it cannot get any better, there is always a ray of sunshine, a glimpse of hope. The Word of God lets us know that the Lord is a very present help in the time of trouble. It is in times like these we have to reach for that hand that is extended to us. I love Psalm 18:16 (NLT) He reached down from heaven and rescued me; he drew me out of deep waters. The Lord used this scripture to let me know that He indeed was aware of me. He rescued me because He delighted in me (Psalm 18:19).
Today, I offer that same comfort to you. Father, I speak peace right now to every heart that is in chaos. I pray that your peace will guard their hearts and minds today. Let them experience that peace that surpasses all their understanding. Father, I cry out today for those that are broken and lost and don't know which way to turn. I speak healing to the hearts that are broken and torn beyond repair. Your word declares that you are near to those that are of a broken heart and you heal our brokenness and bind up our wounds. Minister healing today I pray as only you can. Wrap them in your love; reassure them that you are in their corner and you will never leave them without help and support. Open the eyes of their understanding. Thank you for drawing them out of the miry clay and setting their feet on solid ground. Guide them in your truth and faithfulness In Jesus name Amen.

I got a summer job working on a ranch about 100 miles from my college. The woman who owned the ranch was divorced and at first she was very stand offish with me. I did my job, slept in a loft area in the garage and stayed out of her way, other thatn to get my instructions on a daily basis. She was pretty lean had some looks still apparent, 45 years old. She had some day time employees, but they went home at night. I was the only one on the ranch at night, except for her, and she slept in the big house. She owned 600 acres and ran about 30 horses, but did also have 10 beef cattle that was part of my responsbility as well. One day, she tells me to saddle two horses and she wanted to check some fence line and then I would know what needed to be fixed and where it was. We talked some, but not much. We got on the back side of the propety and there was a small wooded area. We dismounted and went into that area to see if anything had been in there. She was pointing some things out to me, and brushed against me a couple of times, but I didn't really think anything about it. Finally she asked me how I liked working there, and I said just fine. She asked if I got horny being out there by myself, color me surprised, and I said... well yeah, I'm a guy, we stay horny. She laughed, moved in and gave me a hug, and that set up a chain of events with us fucking on a blanket on the ground (she kept one in her saddle bag). From that time on, I slept in the big house in a separate bedroom which she would come to when she wanted it. I also got a bigger paycheck after that as well, which I appreciated since college expenses weren't cheap.

The end of last year was a sprint, no doubt about it. Unfortunately, in all the excitement a few things fell through the cracks. The biggest omission was a series of Christmas videos we made with our buddies Josh+Vince (Josh Ruben and Vincent Peone) for Oreo. Working with Above Average and starring TJ Miller and Morgan Miller (and their candy alter egos), these stop-motion beauties were a blast to make. Huge thanks to Mike Healey for overseeing the animation and keeping us all in line!

I was so excited, I was asked to make a cake with a Bald Eagle on it. I looked in some of my Old Wilton Books, I'm talking from the 70's. I found this cake, I was so pumped thought it looked great. The poor boy was very dissappointed, He wanted the both wings to be spread! I was crushed. Thankfully I have learned alot since then. VERIFY ALL DETAILS!!!

Bakewell tart
A slice of Bakewell Tart
|Place of origin
|Region or state
|Derbyshire Dales
|Serving temperature
|Warm (freshly baked) or cold
|Main ingredients
|Ground almond, jam, shortcrust, sponge cake
|Cherry Bakewell
|Cookbook: Bakewell Tart Media: Bakewell Tart
The Bakewell Tart is an English confection consisting of a shortcrust pastry with a layer of jam and a sponge using ground almonds.[1] The Bakewell Tart is distinct from the Bakewell Pudding, which is a dessert made using flaky pastry, with a layer of jam covered by an egg and almond filling. Some versions of the tart are covered with a layer of fondant.
The tart consists of a shortcrust pastry shell, spread with jam or jelly and covered with a sponge-like filling enriched with ground almonds (known as frangipane).
A Cherry Bakewell is a variation of the tart where the frangipane is covered with a top layer of almond-flavoured fondant and a single half glacé cherry.
Recipes abound, for example those given by Eliza Acton in her Modern Cookery for Private Families (1845) and Mrs Beeton (1861), and modern commercial examples are to be found in most cake shops and in most supermarket cake departments. The name Bakewell Tart only became common in the 20th century.[2]
In Gloucester, a similar tart used to be made using ground rice, raspberry jam and almond essence. Icing is optional. The recipe was rediscovered in 2013 in a book about Gloucester's history.[3][4]
The Cherry Bakewell Shot (or Shooter) is an alcoholic beverage made using a base of Amaretto.[5]

Another comment-related question...
I do have a database backup, BUT ... I did delete the wp_commentmeta table believing it to be a spam-filled Akistmet file. Everything there seemed to have been logged by Akismet -- and just spam comments (that I saw). The table was huge. That's why I deleted it since we no longer use Akismet.
My question: is wp_commentmeta a necessity? Or can we leave it "dropped"?
The site seems to be working just fine. I was able to post a test comment and all. Just unsure if the "subscribe to comments" plugin is working, as I can't test it without accessing the edit-comments.php file (currently unavailable -- due to a whole other issue -- as per my previous WP Forum post).
Any assistance/suggestion would be much appreciated.

Film: The Boogeyman
- The most terrifying nightmare of childhood is about to return!
This series contains examples of the following tropes:
- The Blank: What the killer is described as, though he's really just a guy with stocking over his head.
- Bound and Gagged: Lacey's mother's boyfriend should not have done that to Willy...
- Lacey had a dream involving Willy doing this to a woman.
- Chekhov's Gunman: The mirror in the introduction where Lacey witnessed Willy murdering their mother's boyfriend. That somehow stored his spirit, which Lacey accidentally released, or angered by striking at it.
- George Lucas Altered Version: There's a very bizarre DVD edition of The Boogeyman 2. The original version of the film wasn't very good by any stretch of the imagination, but it is unanimously preferred over what Lommel claimed was a "Director's Cut". This version consists of cheaply shot footage of Lommel being interrogated by off-camera police officers, and "flashbacks" that are 90% derived from Lommel's 1980 film The Boogeyman, which The Boogeyman 2 was a sequel to. The original version of The Boogeyman 2 did consist of a lot of flashback footage from the first film, but it did have some new content, whereas the 2003 version of The Boogeyman 2 is 90% footage from The Boogeyman, 10% newly filmed content.
- Minor Injury Overreaction Quite common in the first movie. Among other things, people die from being hit by an opening drawer and from being trapped by a closing window.
- Up to Eleven in the sequel. A tooth brush manages to pierce through a man's mouth, somehow.
- Mirror Monster
- Orwellian Retcon: A strange example. It was established in the first movie that the mirror that holds the evil spirit can combust into flames by applying water to it. The sequel, despite having stock footage that shows those exact events, including the climax where the entire mirror is dumped into a well, that one shard never com-busts, despite being in a swimming pool in that climax!
- Red Herring: Willy's dream sequence and attempted murder, as well as covering up all the mirrors. Turns out he has nothing to do with actually killing anybody in this film.
- Sequel Hook: The mirror is destroyed but the one shard stuck to the kid's leg glows red implying the killer ghost is still very much active.
- Things That Go Bump in the Night
- Too Dumb to Live: In the sequel, a woman got pushed and managed to latch her mouth onto the exhaust pipe. Getting away from that has not crossed her mind. No surprise what happens to her then.
- Video Nasty

Yep, the tongue-twisting title says it all – there are many ways that you can get lots of twitter followers fast! However, I would like to share with you one of the most effective ways if you are just getting started on twitter, or if you are looking to have a larger follow-base. Remember, the key to success isn't just to have lots of followers, but lots of targeted followers. So how can you do this? Let me explain.
Have A Nice Picture
People like to get to known people – so show a picture of yourself. Look happy. Nobody wants to follow a grumpy-looking person! People like positivity; not negativity.
Make A Background.
You will stand out from your competition if you have a custom background. Sizes are usually around 1280×1024. Be sure to put a picture, description, and contact information on the left side of the page so it is visible to all. Be sure it looks professional. You don't want people to avoid adding you because it looks cheesy.
Compelling Description.
Describe yourself. Be personal. Even if this is an account for a small business, tell people why you have started this business and what your goal is. People love stories. People love people. But they don't like profiles that are secretive.
Start Following!
After completing the above steps, it is now time to start following people. Not just anybody, but targeted people who potentially want what you have to offer. I have created a video that will help you get targeted twitter followers fast. It is about 9 minutes. Listen to every detail because there is some really good stuff in there! The site I use to follow and flush is Tweepi.com. Remember:
- Only follow about 750 per day. Twitter may not like you to follower too many more than that. They may think you are spam.
- Follow only people who have the potential to have interest in what you have to offer (explained in video)
- Follow only people who are active on twitter. If they have posted 1 day ago or sooner, then I will add them.
Send A Personal Message.
If you haven't caught the hint, yet – people like people. They want to know people. So be personal! Once someone has started to follow you, send them a personal message. I like to send them to a link on my blog of me talking. The video basically shares a story with them. It usually makes them happy that they stopped by. This is a good thing. Now they have started to like and trust you. You are no longer a crazy spammer that just wants money or a re-tweet from them! You are a real person!
- You are only allowed about 100 or so personal messages per hour or 2. If you send a lot – they may block your sending capabilities for an hour. Then you can do it again.
- Be sure to send only true value. Never sell. Never convince. Just value or a friendly hello & welcome!
Flush The Un-followers!
There will always be people that are not going to follow you back. The reason for this is not important in this training. Just know that they are out there; and you should care less. There are plenty of fish in the sea. Log in to Tweepi about 12 t0 24 hours after following, and delete only those who have made a tweet since you have added them. This tells you that they are now tweeting and have avoided following you back. Flush them.
- Never flush people who are following you. For example; if you follow 1000 people and they all follow you back. You then log in to Tweepi and un-follow them so your account has authority (more followers than following). This is BAD. Only un-follow the people who are un-following you (in mass quantities)! Twitter may ban you.
Repeat Process!
Do it all over again. Add, say hello, flush the un-followers. Repeat until you have the amount of followers you are looking to have!
Twitter is a great tool, as you know. You can drive tons of traffic to a particular site, on epic proportions! Remember if you aren't online, you are missing out on the largest part of your business. The more followers you have, the greater your tweeting 'power'. I hope you now know how to get more targeted twitter followers – fast; so get out there and start driving traffic to your site! Good luck!

Lindsay Lohan's Sixth Mug Shot: Star Wears Full Makeup as She's Booked on Charges
New Year, new mugshot for Lindsay Lohan. Following her Monday, March 18 plea deal, the 26-year-old Mean Girls star was booked at the Santa Monica police department, and posed for another mugshot -- her sixth overall. Wearing a varsity-style jacket and black shirt, with her red locks pulled back, Lohan fails to crack a smile in the latest "portrait."
PHOTOS: Lindsday's biggest OMG moments
One day earlier, Lohan accepted a plea deal, pleading no contest to reckless driving and lying to authorities -- all related to her her summer 2012 car crash. The former Disney star must served 90 days in rehab, perform 30 days of community labor and undergo psychotherapy for 18 months.
PHOTOS: How Lindsay's face has changed over the years
The troubled actress must also pay a $240 restitution fine and $30 criminal conviction assessment fee, in addition to paying restitution to the victim; Per the terms of her plea deal, Lohan was reminded that she cannot drive with any measurable amount of drugs or alcohol in her system, or without a valid license and insurance.
"A suggestion: don't drive. You're in New York. You don't need to drive," the judge told Lohan in court. "This is it. You violate your probation and we're not going to be having discussions about putting you back on probation in either case."

24 day challenge?
I have seen a lot of people on facebook talking about starting the Advocare 24 Day Challenge. Has anyone heard about it or know anything about it?
I googled and it just looks like another normal diet thing where they take a lot of your money but you get minimum results. It seems odd that its getting so much attention! Am I missing something?
I knew a guy who sold Advocare in college but he actually worked with athletes and concentrated on the supplements to help enhance performance, not the quick fix for weight loss. I think they've changed their focus lately and "sold out" to everybody looking for the magic weight loss pill, it's sad.
I see a lot of people doing It Works wraps and detoxes and stuff like that. I think it's just the fad of the week.

The Porsche World Roadshow offers prospective buyers the chance to sample the German performance brand's full line-up in its natural setting: a closed road course where the full limits of each vehicle can be explored. This meant that when I was handed the keys to a trio of 2013 Porsche 911 models early one afternoon by a smiling driving instructor at Canadian Tire Motorsports Park, I was able to put Porsche's 50th anniversary flagship to the test without fear of losing my license.
The 991 generation Porsche 911 family is based around the Carrera and the Carrera 4, which are respectively the two- and all-wheel drive versions of the 911 coupe. Yes, there are the Turbo and Cabriolet variants, but the majority of sales stem from the Carrera bloodline. I piloted the Carrera, the Carrera S, and the Carrera 4S back-to-back, which gave me a rare chance to glean the subtle differences between these vaunted sports cars.
As most aficionados know, the Porsche 911 has historically hung its engine out behind the rear axle, and the 2013 design is no different. Whether 3.4-liters in the base Carrera or 3.8-liters in either version of the S, it's impossible to miss the impact of the flat-six's positioning from behind the wheel. Turning the car into a corner was an experience fraught with communication between my hands, my right foot, and the 911's chassis, which continually asked for assurance that I knew what I was doing. Fortunately, I was able to approximate one-one-hundredth of the driving skill I observed in the professional Porsche pilots and keep the car on course even as speeds increased throughout the day.
This is not to say that the 2013 Porsche 911 suffers from any kind of handling defect that makes it a frightening choice for track use. On the contrary, I found myself delighted by the way momentum and gravity were reframed when asking the 911 to change direction, as the vehicle is above and beyond competent when driven at speed. It's just that the conversation between the pavement and the person providing the steering and throttle inputs occurs in a very different language than is typically spoken by a front-front or front-rear engine layout.
Once mastered, the rear-mounted symphony of speed can accelerate the 2013 Porsche 911 to a shockingly high peak, thanks to the presence of 350 horsepower and 287 lb-ft of torque in the base model coupe and 400 horses and 325 lb-ft of torque for the 911 S and 4S. A snazzy seven-speed manual transmission is included free of charge with the car, but the vehicles I drove were equipped with the optional, and extremely impressive, PDK seven-speed dual-clutch automatic. The PDK unit seemed to somehow telepathically see the track through my eyes, adjusting its shifting algorithms to change cogs at precisely the correct millisecond and allowing me to concentrate on getting used to the engine's exotic location.
It is difficult to draw a distinct line between the base and S versions of the Carrera when looking at them from a pure speed standpoint, although the S felt more willing to breathe deeply on the track's longest straightaway. Detecting the presence of all-wheel drive in the Porsche 911 4S, however, was a much easier task, as even the brand's trick new electric power steering system – so transparent on the two-wheel drive coupe – couldn't mask the slight heaviness that driving all four corners imparted to the steering wheel. Supplementary confidence on corner exit was the reward for this slight numbing of the car's dynamics, but the two-wheel drive 911 remained more engaging to drive over the course of the day.
Porsche continues to build one of the most desirable sports cars on the market with the 2013 Porsche 911. With so many flavors of the model available – and more on the way in the form of the Turbo, the GT2, and the GT3 – it's almost certain that track-day warriors will be able to find a version of the rear-engined marvel that appeals to their specific high performance requirements.

For those guys, dependability in poor conditions is what really counts, and for David Burnett and Nick Ut, Nikons and Leicas delivered the goods. In my quick google search there is a photo of Nick Ut with a Nikon F and a Leica around his neck.
I've not used a Leica, but Nikon F's aren't necessarily all that easy to load either, especially if you happen to be running down a dirt road, with the camera in one hand, the back in the other hand, and the film in your third hand.
It's all in the timing, and anticipation of the next shot, sometimes things work out, and other times they don't.

Not yet, but you can folllow other set ups I've made on some screens - The set up is the same concept, you just need to arrange the elements differently. But the set-ups show you how to adjust the apps. They can be found on my website under tutorials
