India, China Among Plastic Surgery Hot Spots
Latest Skin News
U.S. Leads the World in Cosmetic Procedures, but Countries With Emerging Economies Closing the Gap
Denise Mann
Reviewed By Laura J. Martin, MD
Aug. 9, 2010 -- A global snapshot of plastic surgery procedures suggests that cosmetic surgery is becoming popular in countries with emerging economies, such as India and China. The new statistics released today by the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery tally the number of surgical and nonsurgical procedures performed in 25 countries. The new data represent 75% of all procedures performed in the world in 2009.
"It is no surprise to me that the United States has the largest number of aesthetic procedures, and same with Brazil," says ISAPS President Foad Nahai, MD, a board-certified plastic surgeon in Atlanta. "But countries like China and India with emerging economies are generating a lot wealth and as that wealth is passed around, people are choosing to their spend discretionary income on aesthetic procedures."
According to the new statistics, 17.5% of all procedures were performed in the U.S, and 14.3% were performed in Brazil. China accounted for 12.7% of cosmetic surgery procedures, followed by India at 5.2%.
The Top 10 countries for plastic surgery are:
1. United States
2. Brazil
3. China
4. India
5. Mexico
6. Japan
7. South Korea
8. Germany
9. Turkey
10. Spain
Procedures Vary by Country
The types of procedures that people are opting for differs among countries. "It is not always liposuction and breast augmentation that are No. 1," he says. Silicone implants for nose reshaping and eyelid surgery are popular in countries such as Thailand and China, he says. Injectables are not as popular in other countries as they are in the U.S yet, he says.
The new numbers also provide information on how many cosmetic procedures are performed across the globe.
"For the first time ever, ISAPs has numbers to show what is going on globally," he tells WebMD. There are 30,816 plastic surgeons practicing across the globe, and they performed an estimated 8,536,379 surgical procedures and 8,758,187 nonsurgical procedures in 2009, according to the statistics.
Surgeons in all 25 countries included in the survey completed questionnaires on the number of surgical and nonsurgical procedures they performed in 2009. In some countries where there were not enough respondents, researchers made projections based on the responses received.

EVE Celebrates the Holidays with Gifts and by Nuking Santa
The Icelandic Yule Lads return to get their revenge on Santa this year and deliver more holiday gifts to EVE Online players.
Last year EVE Onlines holiday celebration began with the Icelandic Yule Lads striking down Santa Clause, but Kris Kringle returned with a vengeance, responding to the Icelandic Lads attack with a well-placed orbital bombardment.
This year the Icelandic Lads are at it again, launching a surprise attack and fleet bombardment on the man in red.
While we wait to find out what fate the man in red has suffered, CCP also revealed a swathe of holiday goodies for EVE subscribers. Just log in over at the EVE Online holiday page to find out what the Yule Lads have stuffed into your EVE stocking.
With 2013 coming to a close, CCP also posted a new blog today that reflects on the events and achievements of EVE over the last year. Just a few of the highlights include the second decade celebration, DUST 514 integration to Tranquility, that little accident that spurred the unexpected massive Battle of Asakai, and much more.

'War No Longer Has Any Logic Whatever': Dwight D. Eisenhower and the Thermonuclear Revolution
COMMON sense tells us that nuclear weapons must have had some impact on the Cold War because of their immense destructive power. When the United States possessed a nuclear monopoly and later clear strategic superiority, its enemies must have been scared and, therefore, extra cautious when America rattled its nuclear sabre. Once nuclear parity was achieved, then both sides had to be scared and, therefore, extra cautious all the time.
But every age has at least one Bishop Berkeley who questions the dicta of common sense. The nuclear age has been no different. First came the 'nuclear revisionists' who interpreted the nuclear age as a story 'mostly about the limited value of these [nuclear] weapons', both militarily and diplomatically, in order to buttress their policy recommendations. 2 The revisionists accepted that the superpowers' nuclear arsenals instilled mutual restraint, but questioned whether the transient American superiority of the early Cold War had been significant. The critique of common sense then moved beyond mere revisionism to what can be labelled 'nuclear nihilism', a position occupied by Professor John Mueller's thesis of nuclear weapons' 'essential irrelevance' for international stability. While their destructive potential is indisputably horrific, according to this analysis, nuclear weapons merely provided an 'extra insurance' to deterring major war during the Cold War. The effective deterrents were instead the images of a large conventional conflict on the scale of the two world wars, and, restraining the Soviet Union and its allies -- the ' Detroit Deterrent' -- the belief that the United States industrial capacity would enable it to triumph in any such war of attrition. 3
For a variety of reasons, an investigation of Dwight D. Eisenhower's assessment of the nuclear weapons' impact on international relations promises to help us evaluate these challenges to our nuclear common sense. Although dissimilar in many respects, both the revisionists and nihilists perceive the

When it comes to protecting their finances from cybercriminals, most consumers have heard the online security basics before: Avoid entering financial information at a public computer, and don't repeat passwords across multiple sites.
The same experts also warn against using public Wi-Fi hotspots to conduct transactions on your own computer. "You never know who's sitting next to you at Starbucks when you log on to pay your bills or check your bank statement," says Eric Friedberg, co-founder of Stroz Friedberg, a security firm in New York City.
And just to beef up online security, all security experts advise consumers to take advantage of extra layers of protection, such as secondary passwords, security questions or tokens, if their financial institutions offer those services. But as our daily lives grow more intertwined with technology and cybercriminals become more sophisticated, there's always more you can do to make sure you aren't the next victim.
Here's what you need to know for online security 2.0.
Don't Take Social Media Offers at Face Value
For years, scammers have been using email to dupe their victims into sending money or divulging sensitive information. While that's still a problem, scammers are increasingly turning to social networks, such as Facebook, and using your friends against you, says Joe Ferrara, president and CEO of Wombat Security Technologies in Pittsburgh.
"To ensure safe social networking, never connect with anyone you haven't met, verify the identity of new friends and look out for scam messages, even from trusted friends, which could indicate an imposter," Ferrara says.
Spotting an imposter may be tough at first. The message, which can appear as a direct message or a post on your Facebook wall, is designed to look like it came from your friend's profile. A free treat from your favorite store presented by a friend can be a tempting offer, but before you click, Ferrara says you should ask yourself a few questions.
- Is the offer too good to be true?
- Is this really something my friend would write?
- Does the language have awkward phrasing or a lot of typos?

Love-love-love that they included a photo of their distressed compressed gas canister tops. I wonder if they convey?
They'd better.
Drove by yesterday and it was lovely, in a gated community, close to downtown, good school district. The backyard is facing the busy Bee Caves street, however.
Also found out that the owner paid for $750k back in 2011, so they are trying to reap $$$ profit in 2 years.

Fixing the X2Lite was easy. I actually read about it here, but unfortunately I can't find the thread to give credit. It requires another good X2Lite. Just boot Evox with the good X2Lite, swap with the bad, and flash.
As for fixing the TSOP, as far as I can tell, there's no difference in procedure between flashing a good TSOP and a bad one. Most of this info was derived from the thread on using a Cheapmod to flash the TSOP.
1. Flash the X2Lite with the EvoX_MatriX_TSOP_Flash.bin BIOS. I used the BIOS manager to make a 1MB BIOS with 4 copies, one in each location, because I didn't want to do the research to figure out which one would boot and figured I could just reflash it using my other X2Lite. I suppose you could flash it with EvoX_MatriX_TSOP_Flash.bin and Xecuter 4973 in a manner that would allow you to switch between them with the jumper if you don't have another X2Lite to use to reflash. If you don't, you'll have an X2Lite only good for flashing Xbox 1.0 TSOPs.
2. Make an EvoX boot disc with the BIOS you want to flash to the TSOP.
3. Solder the two sets of points that enable writing to the TSOP
4. Ground A15 in a manner that will allow you to remove the grounding while the Xbox is on.
5. Turn on the Xbox, and pull off the middle jumper (disable X2Lite) about a half second after turning on the Xbox. I found the amount of time it takes to push the power button and move your hand to pull the jumper at "normal" speed without rushing is perfect.
6. Xbox should boot EvoX
7. Unground A15
8. Flash TSOP.
The first time I tried this, I forgot to unground A15 and I didn't have an X2Lite to boot the original BIOS. Thus, I was screwed because I couldn't boot from the TSOP or using the X2Lite. I acquired another X2Lite, fixed the original X2Lite, and reflashed the TSOP, remembering to unground A15 this time, and now all is back to normal.
Now I'm having trouble using switches. I arranged my TSOP BIOS flash as
Original 3944 + Original 3944 + Original 3944 + Xecuter 4073
I've tried grounding A18 and A19 (but both not at the same time) but it will still always boot the Xecuter BIOS. Since banks 1-3 are all the original BIOS, grounding either A18 or A19 should boot the original, but it doesn't work that way. Anyone have any ideas why this would be? I removed the TSOP write enabling joins. Does switching between BIOSes in the TSOP require they still be joined?

Artemy Volynsky
Artemy Petrovich Volynsky (Russian: Арте́мий Петро́вич Волы́нский; 1689–1740) was a Russian statesman and diplomat. His career started as a soldier but was rapidly upgraded to Governor of Astrakhan under Peter the Great. He was later accused of corruption and stripped of nearly all his powers, before Catherine I of Russia sent him to govern the vast Governorate of Kazan. Anna of Russia appointed Volynsky one of her three chief ministers in 1738. After beating the noted poet Vasily Trediakovsky, Volynsky was arrested on charges of conspiracy and misconduct. Volynsky's archenemy Ernst Johann von Biron had him sentenced to death and beheaded on June 27, 1740.
Military youth[edit]
Artemy Volynsky was a male-line descendant of Prince Bobrok. His father was one of the dignitaries at the court of Feodor III, and also a voivod in Kazan.[1] He entered a dragoon regiment in 1704 and rose to the rank of captain, by 1711; then, exchanging the military service for diplomacy, he was attached to the suite of Vice-Chancellor Peter Shafirov. He was present during the Pruth Campaign, shared Shafirov's captivity in the Seven Towers in Constantinople.
Minister for Peter the Great[edit]
In 1715, by orders of Peter the Great he was sent to Ispahan, Persia (which he reached in March 1717) as a Russian minister to explore the area and find a way by sea to India. During his travelling he was supposed to redirect the silk trade route in Persia to Russia with the Armenians' help. During his stay in Ispahan, Volynsky signed a treaty with the Shah Husayn giving commercial advantages over a country torn by revolts.[2]
In 1718 Peter made him one of his six adjutant generals, and governor of Astrakhan. In this post Volynsky displayed distinguished administrative and financial talents. In 1722 he married Alexandra Naryshkina, Peter's cousin.[3] The same year he was accused of peculation and other offences to the emperor, who caned him severely and deprived him of his plenipotentiary powers, despite his undeniable services in Persia, but for which Peter could never have emerged so triumphantly from the difficult Persian war of 1722-1723.
Governor of Kazan[edit]
Catherine I made Volynsky governor of Kazan for a short time, and he held the same post for two years (1728–1730) under Peter II. But his incurable corruption and unbridled temper so discredited the government that he was deprived of the post shortly after the accession of Anne. From 1730 to 1736 Volynsky served in the army under Munnich. In 1737 he was appointed the second Russian plenipotentiary at the abortive congress of Nemirov held for the conclusion of peace with the Porte.
Condemned under Anne[edit]
In 1738 he was introduced into the Russian cabinet by Biron as a counterpoise against Andrei Osterman.[3] Volynsky, however, now thought himself strong enough to attempt to supersede Biron himself, and openly opposed the favorite in the State Council in the debates as to the indemnity due to Poland for the violations of her territory during the War of the Polish Succession, Biron advising that a liberal indemnity should be given, whereas Volynsky objected to any indemnity at all.
Biron thereupon forced Anne to order an inquiry into Volynsky's past career, with the result that he was tried before a tribunal of Biron's men. The charges faced were that he, as a minister, and Andrey Khrushchyov (1691—1740), as an assistant minister, tried to dethrone Queen Anna for Peter the Great's daughter, Elizabeth.[4] He was arrested on June 23, 1740 and thus condemned to be broken on the wheel and then beheaded. On the scaffold, by the clemency of the empress, his punishment was mitigated to the severing of his right hand followed by decapitation on June 27, 1740.[4] The sentence was executed exactly 31 years after the Battle of Poltava. Volynsky had by his side architect Pyotr Yeropkin and Andrey Khrushchyov.[5]
A tombstone in their honour was erected in 1741 by order of Elizabeth of Russia over their burial place beside St. Sampson Cathedral. That was the only thing that was visible over their grave until 1885 when a monument was placed as they were seen as national heroes because they opposed to German ideas, as represented by Biron.[5] This point of view would have been quite amazing to their contemporaries and reflects more the concerns of the next century than of Biron's and Volynsky's time.
The charge of conspiracy appears to have been untrue. Volynsky was tortured twice but even under torture he refused to admit to conspiracy, while admitting the ancillary charge of taking bribes (of which no Russian official of the time was innocent). Volynsky's draft of a General Project of Internal Affairs of the State contained many suggestions for reforms of administration but avoided altogether the subject of imperial succession and prerogatives.[6]

I love reading Carl Jung, the Swiss psychiatrist credited with being the developer of analytical psychology.
I especially enjoy his book Memories, Dreams, Reflections. His work is very challenging, however, so to get my Jung fix, I also read a bunch of interviews that he gave that were printed in the collection C.G. Jung Speaking. They are a fascinating read.
In 1960, journalist Gordon Young asked Jung, "What do you consider to be more or less basic factors making for happiness in the human mind?"
Jung answered with the five following elements…

Root Canals Are More Popular Than Congress
Polling found Congress' most recent approval rating is 9 percent. Other things were tested too, and it was discovered root canals are more popular than lawmakers. On the bright side for Congress, it is more popular than the Ebola virus and playground bullies.
Good morning. I'm Renee Montagne. Traffic jams, Donald Trump, cockroaches - all considered unpleasant things, but still more popular than our nation's lawmakers. After public policy polling found Congress' most recent approval rating is 9 percent, it decided, let's test Congress' charm against a couple of dozen other things. Root canals got more votes. The good news for Congress? It's still preferred to Lindsay Lohan, the Ebola virus and playground bullies. It's MORNING EDITION.

Discover 4,500 years of civilization in thousands of objects extending from antiquity to present � the only comprehensive art collection of its kind on Florida�s west coast. Highlights include masterpieces from Monet, C�zanne, Renoir and others, a sculpture garden, a Steuben glass gallery and one of Florida�s most respected photography collections. Contemporary Prints by American Women:September 8, 2012 through February 2, 2013. More than 60 prints by American women artists, made after 1950, have recently joined the Museum�s collection � and it is still growing. Since 2008, longtime Museum friends Martha and Jim Sweeny have given prints from their own collection and substantial funds for purchases. This represents the first time that some of the most compelling works have been shown together. The core of the Sweeny Collection at the MFA was inspired by the 1987 exhibition A Graphic Muse: Prints by Contemporary American Women, curated by legendary print specialists Richard S. Field and Ruth E. Fine. The MFA, with the support of the Sweenys, has acquired other impressions of prints that were included in that show: Joan Mitchell�s Flower I, Joyce Kozloff�s Homage to Robert Adam, and Breath-man by Susan Rothenberg. HOURS OF OPERATION: Mon � Sat: 10 am - 5 pm; Thurs: 10 am - 8 pm; Sun: Noon - 5 pm. For additional information, visit
Salvador Dali Museum
The Dali Museum Collection is rich in works from artist Salvador Dali's entire career (1904-1989), with key works from every moment and in every medium of his artistic activity. The Collection includes 96 oil paintings, many original drawings, bookworks, prints, sculpture, photos, manuscripts, and an extensive archive of documents. Founded with the works collected by Reynolds and Eleanor Morse, the Museum has made significant additions to its collection. The third floor galleries in the Tom and Mary James Wing provide a chronological gathering of Dali's paintings. The small salons along the outer walls are illuminated by special skylights and display the large paintings over which Dali labored in the last decades of his career. The Hough Family Wing provides visitors a chance to see other aspects of the artist's work, featuring his films, photographs, objects and works on paper. The distinguished building, which opened on Jan. 11, 2011, enables the Museum to protect and display our collection, to welcome our public, and to educate and promote enjoyment. In a larger sense it is a place of beauty dedicated, as is Dali's art, to understanding and transformation. HOURS OF OPERATION: Mon, Tues, Wed: 10:00am - 5:30pm; Thurs: 10:00am - 8pm; Fri & Sat: 10:00am - 5:30pm; Sun: 12 noon - 5:30pm For additional information, visit
St. Pete Beach
Nestled on Long Key, St. Pete Beach offers accommodations ranging from world-renowned resort to mom-and-pop motels, to quaint bed and breakfasts. Upham Beach, located on the northern tip of St. Pete Beach, is one of the few spots along the Gulf of Mexico known for surfing. St. Pete Beach was originally made up of four areas: Pass-A-Grille Beach, Don CeSar Place, Belle Vista Beach and St. Petersburg Beach. In 1957, the four communities merged into the City of St. Petersburg Beach. Later the City voted to shorten its name to St. Pete Beach. Voted number 1 Beach in the U.S. and number 5 in the world in 2012, St. Pete Beach has so many activities that you may never leave the island! Spend the day shopping on historic Corey Avenue, dine at a waterfront restaurant, or spend the day skim boarding. No visit would be complete without visiting the Don CeSar Beach Resort. Built during the Jazz Age, the Don has hosted many famous celebrities and has been a beacon of the beach for more than 80 years. For additional information, visit
St. Petersburg Museum of History
Have a fun filled day at the St. Petersburg Museum of History, located on the approach to the Pier in downtown St. Petersburg. Enjoy breathtaking views of the marina and downtown St. Petersburg where people also enjoy fishing, dining, shopping, and events. Pinellas County�s oldest museum was founded in 1920 as the St. Petersburg Memorial Historical Society. Through the determination and effort of Mary Wheeler Eaton and others, the Society began collecting artifacts, natural history specimens, archival documents, photographs, papers, and �boxes of unknown treasures that were just dropped on our doorstep during the night.� In 1922, the Society became incorporated and the city of St. Petersburg provided the use of an old aquarium building (located on the same site as today�s Museum) for the public display of the Museum�s collections. St. Petersburg Goes to War 1941-1945. WW II Poster Exhibit Shows St. Petersburg on the Homefront. A colorful collection of World War II posters is now on display at the St. Petersburg Museum of History. From �Rosie the Riveter,� flexing her biceps to instructions on how to �Win with Tin�, this exhibit looks back at The St. Petersburg Homefront, 1941-to-1945. The display includes a selection of uniforms, weapons and personal memorabilia on loan from private individuals and the Armed Forces History Museum in Largo. Remember, Uncle Sam would say, �I want you to see this exhibit !� Titled �Piering into the past, pondering the future,� the exhibit begins with the first pier erected in 1899. Of particular interest is the damage to a pier by the 1921 hurricane, the only direct hit the area has experienced. The future is represented by models and illustrations of the three finalists selected to replace the present pier. It is the only place these prospective pier designs can be seen until the winner is selected. HOURS OF OPERATION: Tue � Sat: 10:00am � 5:00pm; Sunday : 1:00pm � 5:00pm. Closed Mondays For additional information, visit

Stephen Sondheim: A Life
Author: Secrest, Meryle
Description: In the first full-scale life of the most important composer-lyricist at work in musical theatre today, Meryle Secrest, the biographer of Frank Lloyd Wright and Leonard Bernstein, draws on her extended conversations with Stephen Sondheim as well as on her interviews with his friends, family, collaborators, and lovers to bring us not only the artist--as a master of modernist compositional style--but also the private man. Beginning with his early childhood on New York's prosperous Upper West Side, Secrest describes how Sondheim was taught to play the piano by his father, a successful dress manufacturer and amateur musician. She writes about Sondheim's early ambition to become a concert pianist, about the effect on him of his parents' divorce when he was ten, about his years in military and private schools. She writes about his feelings of loneliness and abandonment, about the refuge he found in the home of Oscar and Dorothy Hammerstein, and his determination to become just like Oscar. Secrest describes the years when Sondheim was struggling to gain a foothold in the theatre, his attempts at scriptwriting (in his early twenties in Rome on the set of Beat the Devil with Bogart and Huston, and later in Hollywood as a co-writer with George Oppenheimer for the TV series Topper), living the Hollywood life. We see Sondheim at work with composers, producers, directors, co-writers, actors, the greats of his time and ours, among them Leonard Bernstein, Ethel Merman, Richard Rodgers, Oscar Hammerstein, Jerome Robbins, Zero Mostel, Bernadette Peters, and Lee Remick (with whom it was said he was in love, and she with him), as Secrest vividly re-creates the energy, the passion, the despair, the excitement, the genius, that went into the making of show after Sondheim show.
Some Like It Cool: The Charmed Life of Jack Lemmon
Author: Freedland, Michael
Description: 'Some Like It Cool' is the story of Jack Lemmon, perhaps one of the best-loved stars in Hollywood's history. The first biography since his death in 2001, this book focuses not just on Lemmon's career, but also on his private life. It includes the story of his relationship with his mother, a broken first marriage, his drinking, his 'terrible' facelift and his fight with cancer. This is no rags to riches tale as his wealthy father sent him to Harvard where a Columbia Pictures talent scout invited him to Hollywood where the speed of his rise to success and stardom was astonishing. The author, Michael Freedland, who interviewed Lemmon frequently, confesses to being a Lemmon devotee, yet this biography presents a frank and honest account - as well as a celebration - of one of Hollywood's greats.
Sondheim on Music: Minor Details and Major Decisions
Author: Horowitz, Mark Eden
Description: Steven Sondheim was an important composer and lyricist of musical theater in the second half of the 20th century. Celebrating his 80th birthday, this new edition of Sondheim on Music finds him in these guided interviews expounding in great depth and detail on his craft. As a natural teacher, thoughtful and opinionated, Sondheim discusses the art of musical composition, lyric writing, the collaborative process of musical theater, and how he thinks about his own work. Where the first edition focused particularly on six shows�Passion, Assassins, Into the Woods, Sunday in the Park with George, Sweeney Todd, and Pacific Overtures�this second edition presents a new chapter that discusses Sondheim's entire career. Several shows that were not discussed previously are explored here, including A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, Merrily We Roll Along, Company, Follies, Anyone Can Whistle, and A Little Night Music, as well as thoughts about the recent film adaptation of Sweeney Todd. The book also features an entire chapter on Bounce: the previous incarnation of his latest musical, Road Show. In addition to Sondheim's list of "Songs I Wish I'd Written," the songlisting and discography has been greatly expanded and updated to include all works composed and recorded over the last six years.
Ford County: Stories
Author: Grisham, John
Description: New York Times bestselling author John Grisham takes us back to Ford County, Mississippi, the setting of his first novel, A Time to Kill. This riveting collection of short stories features an unforgettable cast of characters: Wheelchair-bound Inez Graney and her two older sons embark on a bizarre road trip through the Mississippi Delta to visit Inez�s youngest son, Raymond�on death row. A hard-drinking, low-grossing divorce lawyer fed up with his wife, his life, and the law plans a drastic escape after an unexpected phone call. A quiet, unassuming data collector sets out to bring down a flashy casino owner with his skill at blackjack�as payback for the theft of his wife. A stalker hunts victims in a retirement home, a lawyer confronts a vengeful adversary from the past, and a young man from a prominent family is driven off by scandal and fear�but finds unexpected redemption on the wrong side of the tracks. Often hilarious, frequently moving, and always entertaining, this collection makes it abundantly clear why John Grisham is our most popular storyteller.
Sycamore Row
Author: Grisham, John
Description: Long before his name became synonymous with the modern legal thriller, John Grisham was working 60-70 hours a week at a small Southaven, Mississippi law practice, squeezing in time before going to the office and during courtroom recesses to work on his hobby--writing his first novel. After graduating from law school at Ole Miss in 1981, he went on to practice law for nearly a decade in Southaven, specializing in criminal defense and personal injury litigation. One day at the DeSoto County courthouse, Grisham overheard the harrowing testimony of a twelve-year-old rape victim and was inspired to start a novel exploring what would have happened if the girl's father had murdered her assailants. Getting up at 5 a.m. every day to get in several hours of writing time before heading off to work, Grisham spent three years on A Time to Kill and finished it in 1987. It was published in 1988. He had begun his next book, and it would quickly turn that hobby into a new full-time career. When he sold the film rights to The Firm to Paramount Pictures for $600,000, Grisham suddenly became a hot property among publishers, and book rights were bought by Doubleday. Spending 47 weeks on The New York Times bestseller list, The Firm became the bestselling novel of 1991. The successes of The Pelican Brief, which hit number one on the New York Times bestseller list, and The Client, which debuted at number one, confirmed Grisham's reputation as the master of the legal thriller. Grisham's success even renewed interest in A Time to Kill, which was republished in hardcover by Doubleday and then in paperback by Dell. This time around, it was a bestseller. Since first publishing A Time to Kill in 1988, Grisham has written one novel a year and all of them have become international bestsellers. Nine of his novels have been turned into films (The Firm, The Pelican Brief, The Client, A Time to Kill, The Rainmaker, The Chamber, A Painted House, The Runaway Jury, and Skipping Christmas),

It seems that the people are finally stepping forward with their tales of Jimmy Carter's anti-semitism, something we all knew was there and yet got scant coverage in the media for all of these years. Now, besides the Nazis it seems he did not want so many Jews in the Holocaust Council. It troubled him to the point that he kept off Christians with Jewish sounding names. This guy is a complete creep and I hope for a huge fall.

Semetic people represent many more cultures of the middle east than just the Hebrews.
January 29, 2007 at 6:03 pm
Just as a lighthouse is not just any house with a light on it, Anti-semitism is a specific word with an specific etymology. It means, quite specificially, Jew hatred. It was coined in the 1880's by a man who wished to elevate the school of Jew-hatred into the pseudo-scientific realm inhabited by the new "ism's" sweeping Europe; i.e. communism, fascism, capitalism, etc.
While there are a number of "semitic" groups of peoples in the world, the word anti-semitism does not mean against all semites.
Once again, anti-semitism means, very specially, anti-Jew.
Anyone who argues otherwise is trying to obscure the meaning and reality of the concept.
January 31, 2007 at 1:04 pm
This is more right wing smear against a former Democartic President. As a Jew whose Father fought in the Israeli war of Independence in 1948, who lost relatives in 1967 and the Yum Kippour war, I don't buy this Bull Shit!!! Carter has done more for the Middle East Peace process and to help all the people of the Mddle East then any other President.
With Carter, Sadat and Begin Israel and Egypt made peace and Israel returned the occupied land in the Sinai back to Egypt. The Israeli government had to forcibly remove the settlers from their well established communities. Also, at least Clinton attempted to maintain a peace process, even if there was no positive outcome the alternatives, as we are witnessing under this Administration are much, much worse. Unless you are one of those Messianic Christian Zionists who suddenly made best friends with Jews and want to force the end days on the rest of us.
Certainly the current "President" has done nothing to promote peace; he gave the green light for Israel to enter into that pathetic war against Hezbollah. Now Lebanaon is becoming destablized and Hezbollah has been strengthened because of it; making it more of a threat to Israel. The Iraq occupation has enbolden Israel's number 1 enemy, Iran. Who is Israel's real friend here and who are the real anti semites?
NO.. I'm a Jew and I won't buy your right wing, fascist, propagande about Carter.

Lauryldimethylamine oxide
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lauryldimethylamine oxide, also known as dodecyldimethylamine oxide or DDAO, (also N,N-Dimethyldodecylamine N-oxide), is an amine oxide surfactant. It is one of the most frequently-used surfactants of this type.[1]
At high concentrations, DDAO forms liquid crystalline phases.[2] Despite having only one polar atom that is able to interact with water - the oxygen atom (the quaternary nitrogen atom is hidden from intermolecular interactions), DDAO is a strongly hydrophilic surfactant: it forms normal micelles and normal liquid crystalline phases. High hydrophilicity of this surfactant can be explained by the fact that it forms very strong hydrogen bonds with water: the energy of DDAO - water hydrogen bond is about 50 kJ/mol.[3]

Take a few minutes to remember that our differences — whether it be crooked smiles, frizzy hair, or 6-foot-frame — to others look like character, enviable natural curls, or modelesque stature. You're beautiful. (Yes, you.)
The clip is also full of good advice, but my personal favorite: "If it makes you feel awesome, wear it." (Do you think that means I can get away with yoga pants at work?)

The president of the United States does not have the constitutional authority to order a citizens assassination on U.S. soil. Good to hear.
But the answer raises additional questions. What if a U.S. citizen travels to London and sits down at a café there? What if the café is in Yemen or Egypt or Mali or Bahrain?
Do we forfeit legal due process from our own government and its adherence to the Bill of Rights when we take an overseas vacation?
Overseas, one of the most famous citizens they killed, Anwar al-Awlaki, he worked with our enemies; I think he could have been tried for treason. I think if I were on the jury, from what I read, I would have voted for his death, Dr. Paul explained. The thing is, some kind of process might be helpful. His son, though, 16 years old, was killed two weeks later in a separate drone strike and he was on nobodys list that I know of. [The Obama Administration] wont respond. But I think the response by the Presidents spokesman is reprehensible and really should be called out. It is sort of this flippant response that I think shows absolutely no regard for individual rights or for Americans. He said, well, the kid should have chosen a more responsible father. . . . If you happen to be the son of a bad person, is that enough to kill you?
No one, certainly not Senator Paul, suggests that those actively engaged in combat — American or otherwise — have any right to due process. But drone strikes are killing folks far away from any battlefield. And those killed include by-standing civilians guilty of no offense.
Do we really think we can inspire freedom throughout the world through a secret program of assassination that has no check or balance from another branch of government or, for that matter, even within the executive branch?
Rand Paul stood up for the Constitution last week and reminded us of a basic underpinning of our system, namely, you cant give that much power to one person.
Many nations sport constitutions bellowing about the rights of the people and the duties of government in protecting those rights. Rarely if ever are the people able to hold their government to the terms of the contract. Constitutions are mere words on paper, while governments marshal big guns and tanks to maintain their territorial monopoly on the use of force. (With the Second Amendment, at least that monopoly is popularly checked.)
Americans are fortunate: Our national charter was well-crafted, with the exception of slavery (at the time) and the amendment process of Article V (to this day). The anti-federalists, in opposing the Constitution, greatly strengthened it by insisting on the Bill of Rights. And the 14th Amendment, by applying those same rights to state citizenship and same prohibitions to state governments, completes the package.
But, if we Americans wield the greatest individual rights of any people in the history of humankind, it is because of individuals of courage and conviction who have taken principled action. It has often been someone like Rosa Parks; last week it was a U.S. Senator from Kentucky, Rand Paul.
Mrs. Parks knew when and where to sit; Sen. Paul knew when and where to stand.
Those of us who Stand With Rand will prove our mettle by asking the follow-up questions. [further reading]
