Yesterday, while catching up on medical concerns with a patient before we started her Osteopathic session, I said "oh, yes, I tried that too" to convey understanding about what she was telling me regarding her experience with ADHD. She had been wondering whether to try a new treatment, and she stopped short. She was so surprised, and asked me, "Wait, you have this?" And I said, well, not the hyperactivity symptoms, but yes, I've been dealing with it since I was a teenager. It seemed to help her trust what I had to say about effective treatments and medication options, so I thought maybe it would be helpful to write about too.
Typical of many girls with mild attention-deficit symptoms, my main issues growing up were becoming bored and fidgety or even combative after only a few minutes of something I wasn't extremely interested in, forgetting to do things like homework while doing adequately in school (so as to not raise any red flags learning-wise), getting in trouble over and over in class for falling out of my chair or daydreaming or talking, having major depressive symptoms with serious irritability and quickly becoming frustrated, and being able to 'hyper-focus' for hours on end on something I was truly interested in (in my case it was usually books or video games).
It wasn't until around age 12 that I realized one day playing my game-boy, that my body was hurting all over laying cramped on the couch playing, and I didn't want to eat dinner because I'd just 'won' and the game had automatically started over at a harder level… I was willing to be in pain and not sleep or eat in order to keep playing. I felt so angry about everything (mostly at my mother insisting that I pause the game- which turned off automatically after 10 minutes on pause so I rushed through eating), especially at any attempt to get my attention- I was so intent that didn't hear anyone unless they were touching my shoulder at which point I would jump and yell at them- that a lightbulb went off: I didn't like myself like that. I decided to put the games above my tallest bookshelf and not play them again.
Somehow I got through college (with an unimpressive GPA from taking so many classes and not being able to complete the entire curriculum for any one of them), but afterwards I was lost. I didn't know how to do anything but be in school, even at the sliding-through level I generally took, and I was dealing with emotional trauma I hadn't had help processing yet, so my mother paid for me to go to therapy while I looked into going to grad school. I took Effexor (venlafaxine), which is a combination SNRI (serotonin and norepinephrine) receptor blocker. In those three months, my mother and I didn't fight once. (A miracle, honestly, given our violent and frightening history.) I studied for the MCAT, albeit cursorily, by skimming the entire Kaplan book in 3 days, seated at my desk, without music or food as with my previous study habits. And then, at the end of the summer, the relationship I was in went through a rough patch, and I stopped my medication cold turkey. (NEVER do that, by the way. Withdrawals are absolutely horrific.) Fighting with my mother commenced shortly afterwards, and I was told to either pay rent or leave, so I left the next morning, and decided that I'd try to find ways to deal with my sensitivities and attention issues without medication if I could.
The next chapter of my life really began after a year of working in a restaurant, using alcohol to calm myself down in order to be social, and playing video games until 3am most nights, when I somehow was accepted into medical school. I went through two video games there, one each year I lived in Kansas City, until realizing after one 8 hour bout wherein I ate an entire box of Better Cheddar crackers and drank only 20oz of Mountain Dew that day, that again, this was not the way I wished to live. My ban on video games resumed. I finally learned to study, even though it was with enormous amounts of caffeine, and also tried a few other anti-depressants and stimulant medications, but every one either gave me untenable gastrointestinal side effects or caused such nausea and anorexia that I would stop after 2-3 days. Personally, with no medical evidence for this, I blame the withdrawal-induced traumatic brain pathway I gave myself, and assume my gut-brain connection just decided it had had enough of me messing with it.
Now, I never had the major issues or severe symptoms that some of my patients have experienced, but it was enough of a problem that when I was semi-officially diagnosed (I didn't want it on my medical record, so my psychiatrist at the time just spoke with me about it at length), it was actually a relief to know I wasn't simply 'lazy' or 'lacking motivation' as I'd been told when I was younger. As for the sometimes frightening hypersensitivity to sound and busy environments I had experienced since I was about 6 years old, my psychiatrist attributed those issues to the same group of symptoms, and gave me a 'good' reason to leave environments that were difficult for me to handle and to take time to myself when I was overwhelmed.
Fast forward through residency, where the stress of losing my mother, 100-hour work weeks, and the fear of causing harm to patients seemed stimulating enough to force me to learn what I needed to become a good physician… then to today, and my current way of living. I'll share the things I've learned, many of them in the last 5 years, that help me accomplish necessary tasks, and allow me to be creative and passionate without letting me forget about responsibilities I've taken on. I don't do every one of these perfectly, but these are definitely the most helpful non-medical ADHD symptom modifiers I've found.
* I meditate every day. As my 'Insight Timer' on my phone records, I've missed 3 days in the last 400. And I felt it when I did! Nothing has given me more insight or helped me more in my own life, and nothing has allowed more healing. I recommend developing a personal regular practice of some kind very highly, no matter what your experience level or belief system.
* I take on only as much as I truly can handle- Some days that isn't much, and as an introvert, I need a lot of time to recharge between activities. If I don't take the time I need, or if I stack my schedule too high, I get sick, depressed, frustrated, and am ineffective at work.
* I haven't had a TV since I was 19, and only watch with my housemates when I truly have no responsibilities and can waste a few hours, and really enjoy what is available. Otherwise I keep a Netflix queue and only watch when I can truly take time off.
* I am not allowed to play video games, and if I try one that makes me think about it after I put it down, or if it causes me to miss something someone around me said, it's over.
* I go to bed at 10pm and get up as early as I can- my favorite time is 5:55am. I need a lot of sleep to recharge, to allow my overstimulated brain to 'file' important things and get rid of things I don't need, and to make sure I am well-rested and alert so when I need to focus during the day I am able to without medications or caffeine.
* As much as possible, I eat whole foods without chemical additives and avoid refined sugars (including agave, hfcs, brown rice syrup, coconut sugar, and crystalline fructose… there are probably more…). Some people may benefit from avoiding flour also, and some may benefit from avoiding dairy. Personally I love home made sourdough bread and grass-fed whole milk for the omega 3s, but that's my personal preference.
* I don't try to multi-task anymore. It's not possible anyway, and it's not worth the frustration and disappointment when I fail.
* I write everything down in pen, keep an online office schedule also so I have to cross-reference and don't forget something, and I make lots of hand-written lists, but re-write them when many things are crossed off or too many new things have been messily added. I do not use my phone calendar or reminders (I am on the internet too much anyway, and writing with my hand allows me to remember photographically much better than typing), and when I leave myself a voice note or need to write a note in my phone, I transfer it to a word document as soon as I can or put it in my written paper calendar, or I act on it right away.
* Most of all, I am as understanding and realistic as I can be about myself. I keep what matters to me in the forefront of my mind, and stop to reevaluate as needed. I am comfortable being wrong, and work daily on being flexible while sticking to what is important to me.
I hope that was a little helpful, and if nothing else, sometimes it helps to know that doctors are regular humans too. The people I look up to most are those that have had to work with something that was not easy and found ways on their journey to be even more bright, loving, and compassionate. In my case, I hope to use my experiences to help others if possible, and at the very least, to learn to be more peaceful and kind to myself.
Sustainable Health Nutshell: The breath is the simplest tool you have to increase your physical, mental, energetic, and emotional health. Try some of these exercises to learn more about your own body, breath, and energy.
Why is breathing so important? In yoga practices, the breath is an observable aspect of Prana, or energy, but prana is more thoroughly defined as the 'breath of life' or 'energy of life.' It includes all flows, seen and unseen, such as blood circulation, digestion, and nervous system flow as well as flow of creative thought, emotion, and energy through acupuncture meridians. Even things that don't 'breathe' have prana- rocks, water, and the air itself, and all prana affects all other prana. The best example of this is that a huge amount of herbal medicine deals with the 'life energy' of plants and how to change human energy that is diseased by using healthy plant energy. Improving your breathing and learning about it can do wonders for many aspects of your health- let me know what you think of these exercises. (They are marked with *** to make sure you find all 6 to try!)
Physical Health:
Breathing deeply and slowly moves the large diaphragm as well as the lower pelvic diaphragm, and improves lymph flow and digestion, which together improve total health remarkably. Try breathing consciously throughout your day to improve oxygenation, and use the two following practices for a few weeks and see how your fitness improves.
*** 1) While sitting to work or relax, try getting up every 15 minutes or so to walk and stretch, and when you think of it, take a deep slow breath, with even counts of several seconds in and out, filling up your abdomen first and your upper chest last.
*** 2) While walking, hiking, or running (other rhythmic exercise may work as well, but these are the easiest to start with), try inhaling through your nose for 4 steps and exhaling through your nose for 4 steps. If this is easy at your current pace, increase to 8 steps in and out. Go up to 20 if you can. Breathe in deeply, all the way into your abdomen, and fill up your upper chest last, keeping your neck and shoulders relaxed. See how your breathing speed needs to change with increases in pace or hill grade, and how you can extend your breaths by slowing down. First, slow your usual workout pace to work on increasing your breathing depth and slowness, then increase your pace while keeping your breathing slow and deep. You'll find you are less fatigued after a workout, more energized, and after a while able you may be able to work out longer and with less injury.
Mental Health:
Several meditation traditions use the breath as a focus or point of concentration to help settle the mind. The Anapana portion of Vipassana training is a good example of this. *** Try the following for 7 days and see how you feel. Before breakfast and dinner, spend 5 minutes calming the body with Nadi Shodhana or Nadisuddhi (= alternate nostril breathing) (my simple video is here) followed by 5 minutes of breath observation in this manner: Sit comfortably, close your eyes, and intend to simply observe. Watch the air go in and out, feel the temperature of the air in and out, notice the moisture, or whether one nostril is more open than the other, feel the breath on your upper lip, in your sinuses, and down your throat. Notice if the breath is fast or slow, and if it changes when thoughts or emotions arise. With each thought, emotion, or sensation, observe how your mind automatically judges each thing as 'good' or 'bad.' When you realize you are no longer sensing your breathing, return to observation. This is the most basic form of meditation, which uses concentration on a physical sensation to calm the mind and learn non-judgement. This is not the easiest form! But it is safe and something anyone can try. Twice a day, 5 minutes at a time is a nice beginning practice. Let me know your results and what issues and resistances arise for you, for they can be very helpful in learning compassion for yourself. How you respond to this type of meditation can lead you in a direction of learning other forms as well, so please ask questions if you like.
Emotional Health:
Next time you're feeling a powerful emotion, notice your posture and breathing. Our response to emotion is physical as well as energetic and emotional, so many types of emotional reactions can be understood and helped to shift by gently changing our posture and breathing. Over time, the body can store stress unconsciously, which can contribute to blocked energy flows and ill health. To help with this on an emotional level, try the following two simple exercises.
*** 1) When anxiety arises, notice your breathing and see if you can slow it down (even a tiny bit!) and deepen your breaths into your abdomen instead of your upper chest. Count seconds and see if you can make your exhalations longer than your inhalations. Straighten your posture and close your eyes to focus on your breathing. Sit or stand with your back against something sturdy like a wall or tree trunk, and press your shoulderblades into the wall as you breathe slowly and relax your neck and head back towards the wall.
*** 2) When anger arises, first remove yourself from the object of your anger to give yourself time. Notice your breathing and see if you can create slower even breaths, the same number of seconds in and out. Place your right hand on your heart and your left hand on your belly. Let the anger shift and subside as you continue to breathe. As it subsides, clearer thought will return regarding the situation you just put on pause, and an ability to intend non-violent resolution may become easier over time.
Energetic Health:
Learning about your own subtle energy is fun and can also give great insight into any health issues, especially recurrent or persistent ones. Western medicine uses things like biofeedback to teach how breathing affects and is affected by relaxation, blood pressure, and heart rate as well as mental and emotional stability. In many different branches of eastern medicine, breathing practices are used as a tool for healing, and some are very powerful (a teacher is always recommended since these practices have physical side effects- especially if you have health problems, so please be gentle and mindful and consult your physician). Pranayama ('extension' or 'drawing out' of the life energy) is a group of practices that help you understand your breath (and energy) flows, and how controlling the breath and observing changes in your own energy can teach you about your own system. Qi Gong is one of the most structured and gentle practices, and finding a teacher is definitely recommended.
*** I teach something called the Healing Breath (a shortened version is in video format here), which can be used to relax the body, but also can be used to clear out negative energy. Once sufficiently clear and able to feel a sensation of heat in the lower abdomen (the location of the lower dan tien in Chinese medicine or the 2nd chakra in Ayurveda), healing energy can be sent to different parts of the body, or even to the hands to encourage healing in others. To use this breathing activity in that way, take a slow breath into the abdomen for 7 seconds, hold for 3 seconds, and breathe out slowly for 12 seconds- keep this rhythm going for 5 minutes. On the in breath, picture clear positive energy flowing into your energy system, and on the out breath, picture any negative or unhealthy energy swirling in your lower abdomen then returning to the earth. Once you feel more clarity and joy present, and possibly heat in the lower abdomen, intend for the clear healing energy now swirling around to be moved on your out breath to your hands. Allow the sensation to grow. After practicing this for a good while, see if you can send the healing energy to other parts of your own body. Expecting results creates resistance, so just practice and see how you feel, have fun with it, and above all be gentle and don't practice for too long at a time. Enjoy!

Sustainable Health Nutshell: Keep a schedule and routine to allow your body to trust you, so it will not have to compensate for stressful circumstances (that over time leads to ill health). Starting every morning off with a gentle cleansing routine sets a stress-free tone for the day and prepares you to calmly meet whatever demands life has in store.
A fellow meditation teacher recently led me to a site that included Dr Vasant Lad's daily routine suggestions. I was initially entertained by the sheer number of things one is "supposed to do every morning" (19!), but as I thought more about it, I decided rather than writing them off, I would try the suggestions in order and see if I noticed any changes. After two days, my system has had a major overhaul. So I figured I should tell ya'll about it so you can too!
Now, in Ayurvedic school we learned a loose bunch of suggestions for mornings that seemed nearly impossible, and until I was in my own practice and doing the suggestions myself, I had no idea if any of them actually worked, so I think my recent (in the past year more or less) obsession with routine is because of direct experience more than any teaching I've received.
The following is a modification of Dr Vasant Lad's daily routine prescription. I have combined a few steps so it seems less overwhelming, and changed the order of a few d/t my own experience, as well as added my own suggestions. Please let me know if any of you try all these steps and how you feel! I used to meditate immediately on awakening, check my email on my phone directly after, do the other steps whenever I felt like it, sometimes in the afternoon, and sometimes picked up a Backyard Bowl hot quinoa bowl on my way to work late in the morning. Since spending last week with my grandfather, I decided to get on a schedule while there to make caring for him easier, and it seems to have stuck, so upon returning I started this daily routine and am not going back- I have more energy and feel much less pressed for time during the day, which helps me get even more accomplished while feeling super relaxed. Enjoy!
1. Go to bed early! Before 10pm. Wake between 5 and 6am (at first you may need more sleep to catch up, that's ok). Look at your hands, move them over your face and down to your waist to clear your aura. Move to get out of bed, touch both hands to the ground, then to your forehead, then fold at your heart. Give thanks to the earth and the divine for the opportunity to practice your true purpose today: to be a light of love, joy, peace, and compassion.
2. Wash your face (try just a splash of rosewater), rinse your mouth and eyes (pure additive-free eye drops work well).
3. Drink a cup of warm or room temp water. Sit in a squat pose and do 5 min of alternate nostril breathing pranayama [if your nose is clogged in the morning, do the nose oil first ). Then evacuate the bowels and bladder. Cleanse yourself with a bit of rosewater followed by a few drops of sesame oil on your paper.
4. Gently sniff 1 drop of plain or herbalized sesame oil into each nostril (Nasya), place 1-2 drops of sesame oil into each ear (Karana Purana).
5. Scrape your tongue, brush teeth, and use a 'gum annoyer' if you have one. Hold and swish 1 Tbsp of sesame oil in your mouth (Gandusha or Oil Pulling) until out of the shower, then spit into toilet (in order to not clog sink or shower).
6. Do your daily warm oil massage (Abhyanga) with the oil prescribed for you- if you don't know, try sesame or sunflower, then take a warm shower.
7. After the shower, use simple gentle scents without chemicals, and dress in clothes that lift your spirit and feel comforting.
8. Exercise gently- yoga, a 15-30 minute walk, or stretching exercises- this warms the body and starts the metabolism.
9. Meditate. If you are new to this, start with 5 minutes of the Healing Breath pranayama I may have given you already at your appointment. If you've been taught to meditate, aim for 20 minutes, but start with 10 if that seems too much. Remember, you can likely sit easily for 2 hours watching a movie, so sitting lovingly with your highest self for 20 isn't nearly as hard as it sounds!
10. Eat a nourishing breakfast, seated, near a window, without computer or phone. Breathe in the scent of spices, chew well and enjoy helping your body digest, enjoy with gratitude.
Still a lot of steps, but getting up early, giving yourself this time to care for and show utmost respect for your body is a game-changer. See what appeals to you, try a few steps, or commit and jump into the whole routine- let me know how it goes!
And for fun, here's another picture of my fantastic grandfather- please wish him a happy 91st!
Just a quick post to say hello to some friend's sites I've been overdue to link to:
1. Didi Pershouse has a Center for Sustainable Medicine too! How great is that! She came up with the name back in 2006, and I came up with mine in a brainstorm sesh a few years later- love it how great ideas are birthed simultaneously by many of us!! She's on the other coast up in Vermont, so we're doing a little back-and-forth on how to collaborate and get our extremely-similar messages out! Check out her site linked up there, and by all means if you're on the East Coast, go see her!
2. My friends at Rebelle Society have published two little bits of my writing, see what you think, and leave comments please!
a. My poem Guru b. my modified meditation manifesto (not the same as the one here… I might just keep writing them
3. A great talk by Choyam Trungpa on how to talk to kids about meditation
4. My friend Dawn from MedMob who lives in Canterbury England and has a business called "Fresh Connective Coaching" linked to ME and said such sweet things!!!! so here's her blog (with her post about me first, but please check out her other fabulous articles too!)
5. My friend Robert who is a great supporter of MedMob and is a fabulous artist and yoga teacher as well as a physicist (! right?), has a line of t-shirts he's working on called Rocket Buddha. Please take his survey and let him know which ones you'd like best!
6. Then there's this guy, Ben Riggs, whose articles keep popping up and are a really good perspective (and less wordy than mine!) on meditation and evolution… Reading other people's ideas is a great way to open up your mind and learn new things about your own… Enjoy his posts!
That's probably good for now… In other news, the new office is picking up speed which is great, MedMob Santa Barbara has returned to Thursday nights in Alice Keck park, I'm offering free Biodynamic CranioSacral treatments to friends/family while I'm refining what I learned at my conference in Oregon last month, and in April I'll be in SF for the weekend of the 13th and in STL from the 27th-May 6 for my Grandfather's birthday and my cousin Danny's pharmacy school graduation. Busy fun times. Hope everyone is well- please drop me a line and tell me how you're doing!
Much love,
Sustainable Health Nutshell: (I tell all my patients the following- thought it was a good time to reiterate!)
My job as a doctor is to help you contact the part of yourself that knows what is best for you and will allow you to most efficiently bring yourself back to balance and truly heal. I cannot fix anything and could never (and would never) do your work for you. If it were even possible, that would be cheating, and disrespectful to your own process. I can, however, help you contact that part of you that naturally pulls you towards health, I can educate about physical, mental, and energetic things that may help you become more aware of how your body works, I can translate your body's messages, and I can encourage tissues to live in a place of more ease and efficiency with OMT… and I can hold space and encourage you to do the right things for yourself. But only you can truly heal yourself, or rather, remember that you are whole and allow parts of you that have forgotten that fact to reintegrate.
This may be a bit esoteric, but after spending 4 days immersed in what I can only describe as 'medical meditation,' I thought it was a good idea to put it out there since the concepts are central to what I've been doing all along anyway. (yay, synchronicity! love when that happens) The class I took was phase 2 of Osteopathic Biodynamics. The system teaches how to contact and engage the patient's indwelling therapeutic force and promote healing. After learning and using Osteopathic manipulative skills for years, it's fascinating that I've seen more healing happen with this version of A.T. Still's teachings than the standard methods developed and taught since his passing.
When I teach meditation (see my little manifesto here), I teach a technique to help students connect more easily to the part of themselves that is peaceful- really, that is pure consciousness, or love, or their soul that is a part of God, or whatever you like to think of it as (semantics and religion don't really matter- the technique works whether or not you believe in anything or even the technique!). The funny thing is, what I learned this week was how to apply that exact principle to treating patients. The same core part of each of us that is peaceful, calm, and full of love, that is unfettered by the messiness we call 'daily life,' is what my teacher, Dr Jim Jealous, calls "the Health." And the same thing I've been calling the 'unified field' or 'pure consciousness' is what he terms "the Tide." Now, if I hadn't been meditating and teaching it and attempting to get my patients to do the same, this whole class might have sounded not a little insane to me. But as it stands, I'm definitely interested in learning more, and can't wait to use the skills I'm learning to help my patients and improve my Osteopathic technique.
So, it seems there is a practical medical application for meditation, and I am so glad I was led to it. Learning how to contact that indwelling therapeutic healing force that we all have to bring all the layers of ourselves back into the wholeness that we've forgotten we are. Who wants a treatment?

Sony Xperia J leaked, budget Ice Cream Sandwich incoming
Sony is looking to bring its Xperia range to a wider audience, with the entry-level Sony Xperia J, but it looks likely to be a case of you get what you pay for.
Bizarrely, the Russian site Mobile-review claims to have reviewed the handset before Sony has even officially unveiled it, but that hasn't stopped it suggesting a September on-sale date with a price tag of around €150 (£119).
First, the good. Sony is apparently loading the Xperia J with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. While this is no longer the latest version of Google's operating system, for a phone at this price point Ice Cream Sandwich is fair game. There's also a 4-inch LCD touchscreen with a 854x480 resolution that should provide enough scope for watching videos or browsing the web.
Now for the bad. The Sony Xperia J is loaded with only 512MB of RAM. It gets worse. There's no microSD card slot to top up what memory storage there is. This makes storing content on your device limited.
Other specs include a back-to-basics Qualcomm MSM7227a chip, five-megapixel camera and Wi-Fi connectivity.
While it's great to see a manufacturer like Sony catering for an array of different price points, the lack of memory is a serious turn-off even when shopping on a budget.
UPDATE: The Sony Xperia J has suddenly got a whole lot real after eprice.com published what looks very much like official press shots of the Ice Cream Sandwich budget handset.

Hey all, Zutai asked me to join the fray. Didnt have time yet to read 8 pages, just 2. Guys u think we might be chasing our tails a little here? U know i love chasing tails but normally the sexy kind…
Seasteading cannot be defined as a yes/no scenario. There must be levels. Lets see if we can define it as such:
-2; Recreational boats smaller than a yacht.
-1; Yacht or stationary platform designed for long-term or permanent residence in a protected inland bay.

has anybody considered the idea of "lazy station keeping" on the Pacific Ocean gyre where u would never need to use any propulsion? just let it float around and around.November 16, 2014 at 10:07 am #24455
Hello Cai,
I would recommend joining the fight to obtain investment capital. That seems to be the biggest barrier. We have to determine what are the objections investors have, and communicate a compelling vision to the right people. Unless you are so inclined, it may not be necessary to create a whole new vision. There are many thoughtful plans that exist already.
BTW – Singapore is an amazing place! I stayed at the Orchard Hotel for a month while USS Freedom was deployed down to Changi Naval Base. I was working for a marine painting contractor onboard the ship. I was really impressed by the airport, Marina Bay, Sentosa Island, shopping malls 5 floors below Orchard Road, the giant shipping port, and of course the amazing beauty of Singapore!November 9, 2014 at 1:40 pm #24387

Ken I am interested in some links or maybe a few bullet points on what you see as a compelling seastead.
BTW/FYI- I am currently working as an office administrator for a general construction contractor that performs around 500 kitchen and bath projects per year in the Los Angeles market place. These range from replacing a vanity to complete tear-out down the studs and remodeling. The projects we do are almost entirely generated through Home Depot design centers (within HD stores).
I strongly believe the last 5 years of my work have accumulated tremendous momentum. I have 9 different, unique plans to offer. I have excellent roots already in L.A., which is important because this culture has an emphasis on recreation and a willingness to spend gigantic sums of money on such an endeavor.
Also, by coincidence, I work about 10 mins from where Zutai lives. We went to a Benihana restaurant and saw the movie "Fury" yesterday (with a couple girls). We have been hanging out and continue to develop synergy with our mutual desire to initiate seasteading in the real world.
We hope to start an L.A. Meetup for seasteaders. Plus I want to engage and solicit investors for my organization. I went to an investor conference in San Diego, so I know what I need to do to get started in L.A.October 25, 2014 at 11:16 am #24284
**standing ovation** somebody finally gets it.October 25, 2014 at 8:46 am #24280
Ellmer that's not a rational statement to say FPT has cero value toward seasteading. The ONLY difference is that it doesn't float. It's 34 miles offshore, so it exists under the same legal structure that a seastead would. Plus it has the same social and political ramifications. If FPT can be utilized succesfully by a private owner it will provide legal precedent for mooring any other type of seastead right here off American shores and, indeed, for the whole world.October 23, 2014 at 8:08 pm #24264
The water is about 50ft deep under FPT. Some "free divers" came there once and showed Richard Neal, the owner, how to reach the bottom without oxygen.
Originally there were 6 towers. 3 are left. FPT, Diamond Shoals Tower, and Chesapeake Tower. Chesapeake is my favorite. It's in the best condition, and it's 14 miles directly off of Virginia Beach. The DoE is currently conducting wind energy testing on the Chesapeake Tower.October 21, 2014 at 10:16 pm #24230
You heard it right here ladies and gentlemen! No need to worry about money! Step right up. Put your worries away and GET THE FUCK BACK TO WORK! PICK UP THAT CHISEL AND GET BUSY BEFORE YOU GET SERENADED BY KALISHNAKOV YOU FUCKIN RAT BASTARDS!
Anybody heard of Jonestown?
(sparky gonna love this one)October 21, 2014 at 7:31 pm #24227
Yea I'm not into any of this communal living nonsense. I say for multi-family seastead you pay a monthly fee like a condo and you get an equal vote as everybody else. You can walk (sail) anytime you want.

BTDT Mommas: postpartum things to have waiting at home....?
Try and freeze some easy meals ahead of time for you to just grab and heat up. The last thing you're going to want to do is cook or clean. If you have other support people who will bring you food, that's great too.

Ok first I'm going comfort: a few shirts that aren't maternity shirts, but are bigger than normal. The first few times I go out, I hate putting maternity clothes on, but I know i can't fit into my regular clothes yet.
Wine!:) We always celebrate our new family with a dinner like sushi and wine or we grill out and I have a beer just because I can again lol.
I'd say make sure you have tylenol and ibprofin in case you are in more pain than you thought. I like a big comfy blanket on the couch and bed because my hormones changing bring me the shivers. I know others get the sweats. I also like comfy warm socks. Also I put pretty baskets with diapers, wipes, etc around the house so I don't have to go to a specific room each time. If I'm sitting on the floor with baby in the living room I can grab the basket and change her there. It helps the first few weeks when its a little painful to walk up and down stairs.

We normally eat some stuff that is store-bought frozen. Like corn dogs, pizza rolls, anytizers. Just simple stuff. I'm kinda thinkin the first week or 2 we may survive off of stuff like that until I get a little strength back lol
Yes if you nurse have "snack bags" or baskets around the house, granola bars, bottles of water, snack mix like peanuts, sesame stick's, cheerios etc. Also, I tore very badly with my first...so I sent my DH out for a raised toilet seat..it helped SO much not having to sit down that far.....so it's kind of an "individual" thing....but personally I've even been using it now as baby gets heavier so I won't have to bend down as far!

Testing Times; Scottish Game Will Be Used as an Experiment for New Rules
Byline: DAVID BARNES
SCOTTISH club rugby is to be used as the testing ground for a number of experimental new laws that will alter the shape of the sport worldwide.
The International Rugby Board hope the changes will leave the rules of the game less open to individual interpretation by referees - therefore reducing the influence that officials often have in determining the outcome of matches.
Scotland's Premier One Super Cup competition has been chosen as the guinea pig for the controversial experiment, with the likes of Glasgow Hawks adhering to the changes when the tournament kicks off on January 6.
The proposed legislation includes:
Allowing defending teams to collapse rolling mauls.
Forcing backs to be five metres behind the back foot of the scrum.
Removing the requirement for teams to put the same numbers into line-outs.
The removal of corner flags.
Allowing players to play the ball with their hands at the breakdown.
Stopping players from passing the ball back into the 22 and then kicking it out on the full.
Ensuring that free-kicks are taken by tap kick or a scrum option only.
These so- called Experimental Law Variations (ELVs) are the outcome of months of research and analysis by an IRB task force headed up by Scotland's long- serving IRB council member Bill Nolan. The task force includes former Scotland coach Richie Dixon, as well as international luminaries such as Pierre Villepreux, Rod Macqueen, Ian McIntosh and the IRB referee development officer, Paddy O'Brien.
Earlier this year, they spent time at Stellenbosch University working with students in internal matches and introducing some of the new laws.
Last month, a framework of proposals was published and invitations sent out to the world's major rugby unions to volunteer to take part in the next stage of the experiment.
While several other, as yet unnamed, unions are also expected to try out some of the new laws, the SRU have volunteered the Super Cup as a vehicle for their wholesale introduction. …

The Importance of the Dance in A Doll's House

The Importance of the Dance in A Doll's House
Dancing is a beautiful form of expression that reveals a good deal about a person in a matter of minutes. Characters that dance in plays and novels usually flash some sort of underlying meaning pertaining to their story, shining light on themselves, other characters, and the movement of the action. In Ibsen's A Doll's House, Nora's performance of the tarantella summarizes the plot of the entire play.
Take, for example, Torvald's attitude towards Nora's offbeat movements. Torvald plays the piano for Nora initially, but becomes so frustrated with Nora's dancing that he abandons his tune and attempts to re-teach Nora the tarantella. This simple confrontation reflects the main action; Torvald is the one who provides Nora with music and who had previously taught Nora how to dance, just like he is the one who gives her a home and has sculpted her into his ideal wife. Nora cannot dance rhythmically to Torvald's song because both her lies and Torvald's strong belief in appearance have disrupted the harmony of their relationship. As soon as Rank begins to play the piano, Nora dances more wildly.
Nora's maddening movements stem from the fact that she is subconsciously contemplating suicide in order to save her husband's reputation, and her obsession with thoughts of death parallels her with the fatally ill Dr. Rank, creating a mystical, unearthly understanding between Nora and the doctor. Torvald is unable to re-mold Nora's dance skills, foreshadowing both Nora's unwillingness to listen to Torvald at the end of the play and Torvald's inability to perform on the same level as Nora, in this case, physically, and later on, morally.
Nora thinks that Torvald will take the blame for Nora's forgery and she is willing to kill herself in order to transfer the guilt of her crime from Torvald to her. Nora is now showing a hint of maturity; she is willing to sacrifice her life for Torvald and accept responsibility for her own actions because she strongly believes that Torvald will blame himself for her mistake. Through her death, Nora hopes to let her secret surface and re-focus what she thinks is the lens of truth, which has been distorted during her marriage to Torvald. Nora calls her vision about Torvald's reaction to her forgery "the miracle," however, like most miracles that humans desire, it never happens.
Torvald expressed earlier that he wished he could save Nora from a life-threatening predicament, but when he gets his chance, he refuses to help her and proves that he does things only for the sake of appearance, not reality. Her earlier thoughts of suicide show that Nora now wants truth, and although Nora does not murder herself in the play, her state of mind while dancing strengthens and prepares her to destroy the life that she is living in a different way: she will slay her marriage as soon as she realizes that her ideals clash with Torvald's. By moving from Torvald to Rank on the piano, Ibsen briefly sketches the play's plot and symbolically relates the pace of the tarantula to Nora's changing relationship with Torvald.

CHICAGO (AP) -- A federal appeals court has upheld a $156 million judgment against three Palestinian charities accused of bankrolling terrorism, but dropped a Chicago man from the long-running civil suit.
The opinion was filed over the killing by Hamas terrorists of American-born student David Boim (BOYM). It says donors to charities are liable if those charities engage in terrorist acts.
But the court dropped Chicagoan Muhammad Salah (suh-LAH') from the case, saying he was in jail when the anti-terrorism law was passed, so he couldn't have violated it.
Boim was fatally shot in May 1996 while standing at a bus stop in a West Bank town near Jerusalem.
The case isn't over who pulled the trigger, but who must pay damages.

The TUF house has no internet, no television, no radio, no anything, but train, fight, and behave as if you are stuck in a house for six weeks with no internet, television or radio. When it was announced that TUF 18 would be coed, enquiring minds quckly assumed that men and women with common interests, in tremendous shape and under pressure, might find something more compelling to do with their nether region than pee in fruit.
In an interview with UFC-champ-ronda-rousey-warns-tuf-18-cast-to-avoid-100000-sexual-encounters" target="_blank">MMA Junkie, coach Ronda Rousey says it won't be worth it.
"I think the series, itself, has kind of gone away from the attention-grabby reality TV-esque kind of genre and more into just a documentary series on the toughest, most competitive tournament in martial arts," said Rousey. "I think that it's going to be very similar in this season, at least on my team.
"I'm going to have to remind these girls that this is the first impression you're setting for women MMA fighters because this is a lot of exposure that they're going to be getting. If they're the chick that was screwing around the house, for the rest of their career they're going to be known as the chick that was screwing around the house. Sponsors are going to be looking at that. Everybody's going to be looking at that."
"If you think it's $100,000 worth of that lay (in potential lost sponsorships), then go for it, but I'm just going to remind them that there's a lot of very permanent consequences to how they carry themselves in the house."
Rousey also discussed Saturday's Cat Zingano vs. Miesha Tate fight of the night, that determined who will coaching opposite Rousey, and fighting for her title.
"It kind of went the way I expected," said Rousey. "Cat looked a lot better at workouts. Miesha is usually the type that really fights above herself in competition, which is one of her better attributes. Miesha looked really good. I thought the fight was stopped maybe a little prematurely, but Cat looked amazing, too. I don't want to take anything away from her. She was lighting her up.
"If Miesha wants to complain the fight should have been stopped, then she shouldn't have been in that situation in the first place. I was really impressed with Cat tonight."
"I always said the fight that I wanted the most was Cat, so I'm glad that we're actually going to be fighting. On the show, you never know. I think I would have enjoyed tormenting Miesha, whereas Cat seems pretty cool. I don't really know her at all, but she seems cool."

The show is about fighters training and living together for a chance to fight in the UFC. The show is not Big Brother in the sense that there is a televised live feed, it's actually a [i]heavily[/i] edited show. Sex in the house will be an issue if the makers of the show choose to make it an issue. If fighters are missing training because they're having sex then sure, that's a problem, but if they're simply having sex in their bedroom at the end of training then don't pretend they're doing something wrong or even special, it's [i]what every single healthy couple does[/i]. This is like putting a bull in a china shop and then saying "the bull needs to understand that even just chipping a plate could cost it $100,000 so it needs to remain professional. Yes we put the bull there, yes we know we didn't leave it any space to move without bumping into something, yes we're the ones in control of the all the footage and could simply choose to not televise it and choose not to make it an issue, but we really hope that the bull doesn't damage anything. Really, that wasn't our intention at all".

If anyone thinks they legitimately are putting male and females in a house for 6 weeks with no contact with the outside world,giving them booze and dont think there is going to be drama and sex then I have a bridge for sale. No one can be this stupid, the producers know exactly what they are doing. Fuck sakes its natural.

Having men and women on the same season was to create the real world like drama. I'm sure they would love to have similar shenanigans going on in the TUF house. They want to see this season have it's own "Let me bang bitch!" moment.

"So are you saying Ronda is being full of shit with what she said abouit it? Because she seems clear that being ho-ish will be frowned upon. Cindy"With all DFW's hypocrisy and lack of class, the one certainty is that ratings will determine if the producers will encourage or discourage sex in the house (I think we all know how this is is going to turn out). Imagine how the "monster lobster" guy must have felt after getting thrown off the show for not breaking up a fight when he watched Junie Browning's antics for an entire season.

The loss of interest, ruminations of suicide and feelings of guilt and sadness that are the hallmarks of depression may be debilitating. But it is depression's physical warning signs — fatigue, sleep disturbance and appetite changes — that are the most corrosive to the heart, a new study concludes.
The study is published this week in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology. It builds on longstanding findings that link depression and heart disease. While the two seem to be Cleveland Clinic site on heart disease and depression fellow travelers‐one in five heart patients suffers from depression — the question of whether one causes the other remains a mystery, and an active field of research.
A group of Dutch and American researchers used data gathered in the Heart and Soul study in Northern California to explore which of depression's symptoms seemed to contribute most to worsening heart disease. To do so, they followed for an average of six years 1,024 patients who already had been diagnosed with heart disease after having had a heart attack or a surgical procedure to open blocked arteries. At the start of the study, all subjects were considered medically "stable," having had their heart attack or surgery at least six months before. Each got a comprehensive assessment of how serious his or her heart disease was, and each completed a checklist of depression symptoms.
Having any depression symptoms increased a subject's likelihood of suffering another heart attack, stroke, heart failure or death. But even after taking account of the severity of a patient's illness and the factors that influence his or her risk of worsening health, the large numbers of patients who reported suffering depression's physical symptoms — tiredness, appetite changes, sleep disruptions — fared worse than the smaller group who reported they were extremely sad, felt guilty or worthless or had suicidal thoughts.
Many heart patients suffer from depression in the wake of a heart attack or surgery to open blocked blood vessels. But finding the symptoms of depression that seem to predict whose heart disease will worsen is important, because cardiologists can focus not only on treating patients with those symptoms most aggressively, but on treating those symptoms first, the authors wrote.
It may also suggest what kind of treatment heart patients should get, along with their heart medications and exhortations to change their diet. While psychotherapy for depression is often offered to such patients, it seems to be more effective in addressing feelings of sadness than poor sleep and appetite.

"This product is adorable in real life. The design is modern and girly. The paper and photo quality is excellent. It was also very easy to make. I chose to make my photos black and white, which looked awesome with this particular card. Everyone I sent this card to loved it!"
"I really like the layout of this card compared to a lot of other announcements. It is simple but has a creative flare. I thought "hello" was going to be foil. I wish that was more clear in the details. I somehow missed this. I also like that I could add more photos because I had so many to choose from."
"This card looks great and the quality is very good. We were worried that the white might not show up on our photo, but it came out beautiful and vibrant. The signature matte printing is so professional looking. AWESOME CARD."
"Quality paper and much larger than expected. Beautiful color printing.. Added three images and they are all very crisp and clear. Love it all around. Such a deal for the quality!"

Breytenbach back in courtComment on this story
Suspended prosecutor Glynnis Breytenbach will challenge her suspension by the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) in the Labour Court on Monday, The New Age reported on Thursday.
Breytenbach, the suspended regional head of the specialised commercial crime unit, argued in court documents submitted in the Labour Court in Johannesburg that the NPA had "ulterior motives" when it suspended her.
She believes her suspension - by acting National Director of Public Prosecutions Nomgcobo Jiba - was an attempt to protect former crime intelligence head Lt-Gen Richard Mdluli.
The NPA has denied this. It said the suspension was in connection with her conduct in cases that had been allocated to her.
The NPA also accused her of being guilty of improper conduct, because she accused her employer of, among other things, fraud when she filed her urgent application with the Labour Court.
On Tuesday, the NPA postponed Breytenbach's disciplinary hearing until July 23.
Advocate Barry Madolo, who was chairing the hearing, would rule next week on an application that it should be open to the media. - Sapa

Data firing at Fajo was a terrible decision. Fajo was unarmed and in no position to threaten Data. Data should have been courtmartialled.
Ahh... The Fajo debate reignites. The man had a 24th century starship at his disposal, & declared that the only way to stop him was to kill him, surrender, or face the consequence of him killing anyone in his way in order to get what he wanted.
Knowing Data as an exceedingly well reasoned individual, we can assume he weighed carefully his options & actions, and made the right choice, for the circumstance. Fajo's mistake was to assume Data can't grow beyond his programming, which we all know is certainly not the case
Riker held onto a secret of mutiny & conspiracy to violate a peace treaty for decades, & wasn't court-martialed. Worf murdered Duras & only got a reprimand
Data was acting in the defense of himself & others while abducted, and was spared the actual consequence of having to kill the guy. Plus, as he may have considered his actions being of a personal nature & not as a Starfleet officer, when Riker asked him about the disruptor discharge, his response of "Perhaps something happened during transport" was a clear cut dose of "mind your own business"

Physicians were happy that someone was actually doing something to help them improve their patient care as well as the efficiency and profitability of their practices, Nania says. Hallmark, meanwhile, hoped the increased goodwill from its efforts would translate to improved patient volumes, though both sides were careful not to tie any assistance in the technology arena to such goals. "At a minimum it ought to help us from a retention standpoint to keep the physicians we already have," says Hoppe.
Because Hallmark already pays for maintenance and much of the capital costs, only incremental costs are passed on to doctors through the joint venture.
Hoppe says getting affiliated physicians to sign on was a "huge marketing effort." But he possessed a powerful selling point. Because the 150 affiliated physician contracts can be purchased through the joint venture, doctors are able to generate significant discounts from the EMR vendor, GE Healthcare, that wouldn't be available if they were trying to tie in on their own.
Practice management ties in
Doing it Hallmark's way was not cheap. It cost between $6 million and $8 million over two years to bring 150 referring physicians into the system. Despite that cost, Hallmark hopes to bring in an additional 50 referring physicians over time.
Hallmark built its EMR system for employed physicians with GE Centricity, one of the two choices for EMRs based on the managed care contract's incentives. In the joint venture, the board decided to stick with GE because it also offered a valuable practice management component for doctors' offices.
Even as Hallmark builds on its staff of employed physicians, finding a way to provide more services for affiliated physicians has helped soften the rough edges some referring physicians feel toward hospitals that strive to employ more of their referral base.
"Physicians are spending less time in the hospitals," says Nania, whose facility faces strong competition from the Boston area's contingent of academic medical centers. "We hope this will attract other physicians who have only sent a minor part of their business here in the past."
So is Hallmark just an outlier, or will other hospitals now look to use EMRs as an alignment tool? It's too early to tell, says CSC's Stuntz-but he's not entirely convinced.
"It removes a barrier, but I'm not convinced that it removes the major barrier," he says. For physicians, cost is perceived as a significant hurdle, so if the hospital sees providing EMR assistance as an opportunity to further its mission, such initiatives will likely become more common. But until some credible studies prove moving to an EMR improves efficiency, many physicians may remain unconvinced. Meanwhile, hospitals must do some complicated cost-benefit analyses to determine whether offering such add-ons helps their bottom line.
"It depends a lot on how competitive the market is and what their competitors are offering," says Stuntz, adding that offering an EMR to affiliated physician may become a cost of doing business in competitive markets. "It depends on whether the physician is likely to be admitting to all hospitals or whether they would be OK with admitting to just the one that offers the EMR."

I have put a few hundred miles on it, and find it to be a comfortable and moderately relaxed riding position. It has a sturmey archer IGH 5 speed, that has a really great gear range, and has fender mounts, and rack mounts front and back. I wouldn't be looking to do anything more than just a few weekend camping trips during good weather.
The geometry is close to that of a Surly CC and even closer geometry with the Surly Pacer, except the CC is 2 inches longer overall and has about an inch longer chain stays. Everything else is almost exactly the same. I know a lot of guys are using the Surly CC as touring bikes.

Need Ideas For New Star Trek Mod
It is a turn based strategy game and I think it plays a lot like BOTF only there are more options. I want to make it better though. So I would like your help for suggestions.
What im working on now is to add random events to the game where you will be faced with a moral dilemma. What moral dilemma events can I add that reflect some of the Star Trek episodes? Off the top of my head I thought I would have one where you are being infested with Tribbles and you can either 1) Ship them somewhere else 2) Kill them or 3) Let them stay, and each choice has an impact on if your race is leaning good or bad. So what Star Trek moral events can you guys think of that I should add?
What would happen in a galaxy where Star Trek went to war with Star Wars?

With a single time application, Mojave 70 EG herbicide delivers bareground vegetation control of 150 species of weeds, perennial and annual grasses. Application can be done before or after emergence to eliminate weeds in one season. Mojave 70 EG also can be used additionally with other bareground products. It is a dispersible granule that needs to be mixed with surfactant and water and applied to areas for complete bareground such as railroads, along fences, highway rights-of-way, farmyards, utility plant sites, petroleum tank farms, and non-irrigation ditchbanks. Initial application prevents new weeds from appearing, thus eliminating the need for more than one application. Weeds under paved surfaces can also be terminated using Mojave 70 EG.
Always use a surfactant for post-emergent applications.
|Active Ingredient:
|Imazapyr - 7.78%
Diuron - 62.22%
|Target pests:
|Grasses: Bermudagrass, Cheat, Dallisgrass, Johnsongrass, Quackgrass, Saltgrass, Vaseygrass and others
Broadleaf weeds: Chickweed, Clover, Dogfennel, Kochia, Lambsquarters, Pigweed Foxtail, Russian Thistle, Silverleaf Nightshade, Stinging Nettle, Yellow Star Thistle, Morning Glory and others
Vines: Field Bindweed, Kudzu, Virginia Creeper
* See label for complete list
|For use in:
|Bareground Vegetation Contorl
|0.5 - 1 lb. per gallon of water
7 - 19 lbs. per 100 gallons of water per acre
Must mix with water and surfactant
* See label for complete application instructions
|Pet safe:
|Yes, when used as directed on label
|Professional Product
Product Documents
Mojave 70 EG controls over 150 species of annual and perennial grasses, broadleaf weeds and vines including but not limited to.
Grasses- Bermudagrass, Cheat, Dallisgrass, Johnsongrass, Quackgrass, Saltgrass, Vaseygrass
Broadleaf weeds- Chickweed, Clover, Dogfennel, Kochia, Lambsquarters, Pigweed Foxtail, Russian Thistle, Silverleaf Nightshade, Stinging Nettle, Yellow Star Thistle, Morning Glory
Vines -Field Bindweed, Kudzu, Virginia Creeper
All handlers must wear
- Long sleeve shirt and pants
- Shoes and socks
- Chemical- resistant gloves made of any waterproof material
- Chemical-resistant apron when mixing
- A NIOSH-approved dust/mist filtering respirator with any N2,R, P, or HE filter or a NIOSH approved dust/mist filtering respirator with approval number prefix TC-21C
For annual weed control, preferably apply either at late pre-emergence to early post-emergence for best results. For perennial weed control, it must be applied post-emergence to the target weed, since it will not control non-emerged perennial weeds. For maximum effect, weeds should be growing vigorously at the time of post-emergence application and the spray solution should include a surfactant. To achieve the desired residual control with increasing rainfall amounts, higher rate of Mojave 70 EG should be applied.
As a general guideline the Mojave 70 EG rates listed below are recommended for different annual rainfall amounts. Actual use rates will vary depending upon the lenght of residual control desired, weed pressure and environmental conditions.
Average Annual Rainfall in Inches/Rate per acre
- Less than 15 inches - 7 to 10 pounds
- Between 15 and 35 inches - 8 to 13 pounds
- Greater than 35 inches - 13 to 19 pounds
For initial applications, apply at 5 to 6 pounds per acre in combination with another herbicide.
Avoid applications to powdery-dry soil or sand soils when there is little likelihood of rainfall soon after treatment, since subsequent off-target movement of treated soil by water and/or wind may cause damage to adacent desirable plants or crops.
For control of undesirable weeds under paved surfaces, Mojave 70 EG may be used under asphalt, pond liners and other paved areas. However, it can ONLY be used in industrial site or where the pavement has a suitable barrier along the perimeter that prevents encroachment of roots of desirable plants.
It must be mixed with at least 100 gallons of water per acre.

Deeplinks Blog posts about Net Neutrality
Demand the FCC Enact Real Net Neutrality, Join One of the Emergency Protests Happening Today Across the Country
Today, across the United States, Internet users are gathering for an emergency vigil calling on the FCC to protect the open Internet. We'll be at the one here in San Francisco at 6pm in front of Civic Center Plaza, and we hope you'll make it one near you. Our friends at Fight for the Future who are organizing the nationwide protests have all the info you need on how to find a protest near you.
Back in May the Federal Communications Commission proposed flawed "net neutrality" rules that would effectively bless the creation of Internet "slow lanes." After months of netroots protests the FCC is now reportedly considering a new "hybrid" proposal. EFF is deeply concerned, however, that this "compromise" risks too much, for too little.
To see why, a little background is helpful. As we explained back in June, if the FCC is going to craft and enforce clear and limited neutrality rules, it must first do one important thing: reverse its 2002 decision to treat broadband as an "information service" rather than a "telecommunications service." This is what's known as Title II reclassification.
Today is the last day to file comments at the FCC in the net neutrality debate. Right now, before you even finish reading this, go to our tool at DearFCC.org and tell the Commission why the future of the open Internet matters to you.
This is a big deal. Net neutrality, a principle that means Internet providers must treat all data that travels over their networks equally, impacts every aspect of our freedoms online.
Comcast Denies Allegations of Tor Crackdown: Users Should Continue to Report any Non-Neutral Activity
Over the weekend accusations surfaced that Comcast has been threatening Tor users with termination of service. According to reports, Comcast subscribers claimed that agents from the company instructed subscribers that use of the highly popular Tor browser was "illegal" and against the giant ISP's user policies. And let's get one thing straight right now: Tor isn't illegal. In fact, the Tor browser is used by academics, activists, regular Internet users, and even law enforcement.
If these accusations were true, then Comcast would not only be acting contrary to the principles of net neutrality, but would also potentially infringe on millions of users' legitimate need to use the Internet without disclosing their IP address.
