Keynesianism For Kretins (sic): The New York Fed Launches Propaganda Comic Book
The Central bankers of the world continue to demonstrate just how they perceive the general population: as bunch of retarded morons, easily distracted, and fascinated by pictures, colors and gimmicks (almost makes us wonder why Amazon didn't go to the Fed to subsidize the losses it is incurring on the Kindle, instead of cutting its price by 30% to $189 - surely the Fed wants the entire middle class to wallow in its debt slavery, and spend every waking hour blissfully reading Whispernet downloaded soft-porn, instead of ruminating on the collapse of the American civilization). Whereas a month ago, the ECB issued a cartoon on price stability, as we disclosed in Keynes For Kindergarteners, today our own New York Fed confirms yet again that in the contest of stooping the lowest, it has no equal. The FRBNY has published a comic book, full of the misadventures of the infamous Darth Inflation. With such zingers as "By discouraging saving, inflation can harm the US economy. That's because the economy needs a supply of savings to provide the funds for people and business to borrow so that they can invest in the things that help the US economy grow" it is now clear that the entire FRBNY Board is comprised of lunatics, as apparently these people have not heard of ZIRP, QE, 0% interest on money markets and savings accounts, and must have Apple gizmos. Also, as Jon Hilsenrath will hopefully inform his audience with an at least 24 hour advance notice, the Fed is likely currently contemplating using its legislative branch (i.e., Congress) to pass laws allowing negative interest rates, and making hoarding of money and gold a felony.
You can read the most pathetic atempt ever on the side of the Fed to pander to the general population, which incidentally according to broad recent polling, believes not only should the Fed be immediately audited, but also dismantled, recycled for scrap, and the remains used to plug the BP hole in the GoM.

Forget the NY Feds PR problem for a moment ... Washington now has an even bigger problem if you ask me...
I challenge anyone to find a flaw in this plan to 'democratically' overthrow the U.S. government. Seriously it will work!
Na na na na naaa... I'm smarter than you guys! You guys are so stupid! Blah blah blah blah blah blah...
Listen 2,000 hit's already and my boat is still floating... come on... sink me Bitchez!
Really, ZH should get in on the game too: Gold Bitches! The Farce of Fiat Currency
Who can draw?
The subliminal "buy inflation indexed bonds" message in the beginning was clever...
Considering the size of ZH's audience, whipping up a clever response to the govt's ridiculous comic would be a no-brainer, maybe something with a "Salad Fingers" theme where Ben Shalom stars as Salad Fingers ( http://www.fat-pie.com/salad3.htm ).
This comic book already exists. The Schiffs wrote it, it came out 6 weeks ago.
They should have Krusty the Klown narrate these things. He could give it some pep.
It ranks right up there with Krusty's other high quality products.
Yes, I did actually read the comic. I am now actually dumber than I was before.
Hi kids, it's Krusty, and I don't feel like paying interest anymore.
too, some much needed credibility
I hope the bride-to-be on page 7 is also springing for finishing gender-reassignment surgery before prices go up on that too. Otherwise, "she's" never going to use that dress.
Don't be so cynical. In a gobsmackingly-idiotic comic book, even a cross-dressing stevedore can find love.
speaking of women, i'm with the earlier one who wants to buy jewelry but the lummox with her seems taken in by the tips bonds (adjusted to the same cpi that didn't go up last year, to the chagrin and disbelief of social security recipients). she also was more convincingly a woman. timmy must be so proud.
Okay, so I know this is an easy joke, but this clip is funny:
Moe = Bernanke
Curly = Geithner
Larry = ?
Larry = Summers
Seriously. Comb the hair up and have him whine, "Hey! Why don't you pick on someone your own size!"
TD, these are not lunatics at all.
They put Keynesianism right where it belongs...in a comic book.
At 24 pages it may be the most brilliant exposition on the economy (it isnt...) but Joe Public's attention span is all of err.. one page so "own goal" you federal wankers
yes, i too was wondering the audience. wonkish fourth graders? legacy admits to harvard business school?
I mean really comic type text and pictures, how insulting to ones intellect as i prefer cartoon animation myself as it's easier to understand.
Hey, that's the best they could do on the subject. And even this was quite a stretch for them.
This will be the educational material that will be used in the camps after the GOM evacuation.
They've inflated us into oblivion since the beginning of the fed's existence and now they want to educate the public about "inflation". Are you kidding me?
Beat me to it. I am actually very surprised that the Fed is able to demonstrate any understanding of the term at all.
and their timing is superb: the onset of a deflationary depression. the greatest inflation threat at this time of course is neither "cost push" or "demand pull" but "fed flush" as the future wealth of the nation is exchanged for toxic crap on the fed's balance sheet.
Balls to you bernizzle!!
SHeeesh, this is econ 101 all over again.
Goth is so yesterday. Now Steampunk, ahh, there's the ticket.
Probably do a Twilight special addition making it totally cringeworthy.
But are we not a nation of idiots? look at who we elect and allow them to do to our constitutional rights? And when the Fuk did Americans read? - buying I pads and Kindles so that they can JO to net porn in bed....
Making it illegal to save money by instituting a negative interest rate! Time to buy that safe I always wanted!!!
i l o v e my new safe.
i keep my weed in it too†
just to let america know, i had to give a 10 day notice to order my money (cash, Benjamin's), so i could withdraw it.
and don't any of you men tell me i am lying, either. cause it is the damn truth.
our money is not physically in the bank, people.
I've taken just shy of $10K in hundreds out of the bank 3 times in the last 9 months... how much are you withdrawing?
That's not a real smart move.........(you likely are aware of why).
Unless it's something you have been doing at the same Bank, for a period of years.........
And, no your/our fiat $$$ hasn't been there for a LONG time, that's why it's called frac reserve banking............
Nope, got the same notice from my Bank, 2 weeks ago..........
Get ready for rationing your own dollars out to you........
This is extremely negative to those who fear deval, and or/changes.
We here in MA fear deval and Deval.
So this is M3 falling in action. Roth's "Depression Diary" goes through bank runs in Youngstown, OH (swanky place before the fall) and the effects of the bank runs.
Can you post the message? If we all see the same thing, then we'd know what Sheila is up to beyond her public "statements".

Funny comic. They were borderline to tell that inflation is theft on the poor.
Maybe comic issue number 2, the return of the archdem on inflation.
"With the supply of oranges down..."
You mean SUPPLY & DEMAND?
Explain gold/silver, CFTC!
Oh wait, you mean there are NO PAPER ORANGES?????
They even drew dullard looks on the faces of the sheeple. Perfect!
And now for your viewing pleasure.
The Mistress of the Macabre. The
Epitome of Evil. The most sinister
woman to dance on the face of the
earth. Lowly dogs, get on your
knees, bow your heads and worship
at the feet of SANTANICO
what a disgrace.
gotta love the pic on page 11 showing $100 deposited in a bank and that allows the bank to loan $90 and the banks keeps $10 in reserve. in reality the bank makes a $900 loan with that $100 deposit. the additional $800 being created out of thin air from the federal reserve bank.
liars. liars. liars.
I like the preceding pic (forgot what page) where the poor banker is in dispair becuase he is getting hurt by 8% inflation, while his issued loan is only at 5%.
Yet we don't see current conditions where savings rates are at 0%, and loans (or in this case, Treasuries) are being issued at 4%. Because banks would be counting their money with evil grins on their faces while shaking hands with Ben Shalom. And savers would be the ones in dispair.
They're not just liars, the FNBNY are banking's favorite money launderers.
Scribd OK on my 64bit. Windows 7. It's the shit, because one can select a different operating system for each application.
Me love this long time (Vietnamese girl saying this is my Windows 7).
I like the chart that says that shows how they managed inflation while there was real solid GDP growth. I think the FED should measure results by $USD purchasing power....which this chart by Tyler Durden shows .... ugly
Hey, I'm waiting for the Cliff notes...
The Audiobook you can listen to in the car.
This is part of a series of comic books published by the Fed.... Our tax dollars hard at work.
The reality show based on it will be going head to head with American Idol this fall.
Keep it real, real stupid
Funny, are they trying to tell people what is to expect real soon? So when it happens, people don't ask the stupid questions anymore? LOL
Looks like a key indicator release to me.
Yeah... I wonder whether the comic book release and the Chinese currency announcement isn't somehow linked.
Just remember, inflation has NOTHING to do with dollar devaluation against stronger currencies that float. And inflation is what our government says it is...
Lying son of a bitches.
HAHA, can we get a comic of the Volcker Rule with the "Bill" guy? I'm just a bill, just a lonely old bill, and I'm sitting on Capital Hill ROFL
Hey fellas,I think am gonna be sick
LOL. You guys said it all. What musical score could be put to this?
LOL..."I have to charge you more dough for the bread"
There was a special to my local paper where the local university is having a financial literacy workshop for teachers. They will be teaching the teachers on how to teach economics to their students. There will also be a special address by Bill Gilmer, vp of the fed bank of dallas. I don't know why they just don't send the comic books to all schools and be done with it. I don't know if I can go to the workshop, seeing as I'm not a teacher, but if anyone wants to go...
look at pg 6.
Inflation can hurt too, by giving people incentive to invest in ways that don't help the economy grow.
look at the lady in red dress, says:
I'm investing in jewelry because i'm worried about inflation, and i think that jewelry will rise in value faster than other prices will go up.
hey, has anybody heard about this business?
That thing is full of misrepresentations and outright lies. A frigging lying comic book, brought to you by your friendly jew central bankers.
They don't even know the definition of inflation. That is what is so funny. Inflation is the increase in the money supply, not the following increase in prices.
+1 !!!
They are playing around with the premise of increasing velocity of money.
Further, they define "hyperinflation" as "really bad inflation". NO. It is a collapse in the confidence of the unit of exchange.
This is truly stupid drivel. Demonstrably untrue. Just what we should expect from this propaganda campaign.
I didn't know that and I have a degree in Math ... I must have been out that day.
Obviously they're roman numerals.
Now you've done it. After they go to all that trouble to convince people of every possible explanation for inflation, you have to go and blow it. Fed said, "money supply?, what money supply?, we don't know nuthin bout no stinkin money supply. What?"
Pg 12 sounds like she's Mexican
Nothing much in there about government subsidies keeping prices artificially high, either. Like the $30 frickin billion that the House just approved so that home builders can increase the housing inventory...
Does the Fed seriously expect Americans to read?
Use of mass propaganda indicates that the game has been lost. Prepare for SUPER-inflation.
We need to do a counter propaganda piece in comic form. here are some ideas:
Liberty Comics: reduction and expression of core liberty based ideas into a simple comic:
Sound Money:
Cast of Characters: use archtypal themes which resonate with all humanity,
Hero: The Patriot, the worker, the saver, average american
Villan: Federal Reserve, international banking cartel, secret society, Lucifer himself,
Plot: debt enslavement of the American People and the destruction of all things free: government control of everything, mortgage on the future of humanity
Ticking time bomb....... National Debt Clock
Secret Weapon...... physical gold
Careful! This stuff could cause an apoplectic farcical fit.
"That's because the economy needs a supply of savings to provide the funds for people and business to borrow so that they can invest in the things that help the US economy grow"
This is like Nazi Germany saying how much the economy needs Jews - so don't worry, nothing will happen to them, no reason they should run for their lives or anything...
Holy crap - I thought this was a story from The Onion.
You mean this sh*t is real?
The FedGubermint is now officially beyond parody.
We are so totally freaking screwed.
Check out this inflation propoganda film from 1933
That's right...inflation is GOOD for you.
So is smoking. Besides, all the cool countries are doing it.
Thanks. Born in North London. Gooner for life.
Not satisfied with having ruined other large swaths of the economy, they're now going to put satirists out of work.
And I thought the oil spill was a sign of the apocalypse. Jeesh.
Thank you everybody for your comments, as I literally could not read this.
Dis-info+Circular Logic=FRBNY
"Inflation is very unpopular" …
Well, yeah, for lenders of existing debt, sure. For all the lendees, the only thing that can save their ass right now is Inflation.
But hey, when it's bank vs. consumer, you know who the Fed is going to cheer for.
"We need to do a counter propaganda piece in comic form."
Already done. I personally like the "Money as Debt" series viewable for free on youtube:
Fed azzhats rarely use the word inflation...normally they use the term 'inflation expectations'...also, they seldom use the word money.
Batten down the hatches!
To me the most outrageous zinger of all is this one "Many economists think the consumer price index overstates increases in the cost living" - page 20.
Then in the following slides they go on to say how this results in less money for the Federal Government and is a benefit for taxpayers because the personal exemption (tax deduction) is increasing faster than it should because the CPI is overstating increases in the cost of living.
The reality is just the opposite.
I skated right past that part. Please, Fed, show us these economists. Who are they?
OMFG, they have absolutely lost it. Great thread title Tyler. I swear I'm living in that alternate universe with the Bad Kirk and the Spock with the goatee.
They're desperate.
The World Bank actually has a far more sophisticated global propaganda operation and video game running. I haven't had the time or inclination to investigate it much, but here it is:
I doubt that they'll all make it to 2020 before they're forced by political unrest to smash the printing plates.
They must have got they're gunning and gardening orders in over the weekend.
First our Barney Fife of economics, Paul Krugman;
"At the moment, as you may have noticed, the U.S. government is running a large budget deficit. Much of this deficit, however, is the result of the ongoing economic crisis, which has depressed revenues and required extraordinary expenditures to rescue the financial system."
You see, according to Krugman, deficits & debt "is the result of the ongoing economic crisis" brought about by Black Bart the Villain, it has nothing to do AT ALL with spending what one does not have TO spend, then calling it an asset, then applying leverage to the seed of what is debt (that is, an obligation to pay back). Glad we got all that green shootism out of the way in one shot.
Now, a far more dangerous individual because he teaches his own brand of ballistics, Greg Mankiw;
"Generations of Keynesian economists have sought to model and quantify how that "multiplier" would function in different economic conditions. But most Keynesian economists have agreed that the multiplier effect of government spending is larger than that of the other approach to injecting demand into the economy — cutting taxes — because money from tax cuts might be saved rather than spent."
Here we find another seed of it, you cannot be allowed to "save" what you have earned by your own labor. You see, it is not YOUR money to do with as you wish, to spend it all, to spend a fraction or to spend none.
In closing, the grand Keynesian experiment has failed numerous times. Specifically in 1975, while following Keynesian "theory" we had stagflation, which is an impossibility according to John Maynard Keynes. You see, you simply cannot have mass unemployment AND double digit inflation at the same time because government was shoveling dollars into the furnace at a frantic rate. Yet we did.
We will soon be treated to a falling unemployment rate (U-3) as "evidence" that not counting ALL of the labor force is proof that government spending what they don't have to spend is working.
My rant for the day.
The New York Fed Comic Book is a combination of Pravda, cigarette warning labels and See Dick and Jane Buy Oranges--all rolled into one--with a guest appearance by Dirty Harry.
In the case of the cigarette labels, it's a case where smoking is the worst possible thing for you but, of course, the government is making billions on the taxes and wouldn't think of doing anything to harm its cash cow.
It's Pravda because it says the opposite of what it is. One of the best examples is the exchange where a guy holds an inflation-indexed bond and says, I know this bond will allow me to buy at least as much 10 years from now as I can now. And of course that inflation-indexed bond is indexed to the inflation lie—namely that we have low inflation… I can guarantee him that his little bond won't buy him anything near what his money buys now. He'll be wiped out.
And it's Dick and Jane because I don't think there is an audience in the United States that would follow this stuff, not kindergarteners, not immature adults and certainly not mature adults.
I guess the central bank mobsters are hoping that the Department of Education will latch onto this, put it in the schools and the post offices, etc, with the idea that the people's prices are going up but not to worry because the Federal Reserve knows that inflation is bad for you and it's got you covered. Besides, as the FRB-NY says, if oranges go up, that's not inflation. You don't have to worry about that part. And if gasoline goes up, that's not inflation; and if your heating bills go up that's not inflation. And if rent goes up, it was because your landlord had to pay more for heating, so that's not inflation. Isn't' that right?
As a matter of fact, the bottom line is, higher prices aren't inflation. Inflation is Clint Eastwood. And as long as you don't see him around, there's no inflation. Get it?
Never mind that according to Kirk MacKenzie in Money that "Inflation is the devaluation of a nation's currency caused by inflating the money supply faster than the growth of real wealth… that usury creates inflation."
In fact, says MacKenzie, inflation is visible. "New York City is the city usury built!"
Proof? "Simply look at New York, the economic capital of the world, and compare it to photographs of cities where wealth is actually produced. New York is one of the wealthiest cities in the world, yet it does not construct homes, build cars, grow food or livestock, mine minerals or timber or produce oil. It is visually apparent the labor and the wealth of the nation flows into the NY banks through a financial system it created and controls. It is the city built by usury."
I guess this means inflation is good…for some…like the NY York Fed's Goldman boys who sopped up $70B in bailout while the stock market was collapsing, bought back into the market at the bottom when no one else had the money, and then sold when the market soared.
Is that in the book?
For a comic book, it sure ain't funny.

Or how they offered the kid with the computer $600,000 a year to get a phd in computer science and program trade bot algos.
They might have better luck with a kick-ass superhero babe in tight leather, using ninja weapons to fight inflation.
Seriously, any budding graphic novelists out there, do a few spec pages and toss it over their transom. Worth a try.
Anything would be better than this lame artwork that looks like morale-boosting propaganda from the 1940's.
Once again, these immortal words come to mind: "Give me control of a nation's money and I care not who makes the laws." Mayer Amschel Rothschild
Which leads to my quote "END THE FED NOW". Mac
The fed has used comic illustrations in the past. Below are two of those illustrations. Perhaps someone at the fed is trying to pass some cryptic messages or maybe they are just indulging in some hallucinogenic drugs.
Next Week "Deflation, The Real Killer", and then they have done their Civic duty in alerting us to all risks in the future ... except, of course, the risk of continued FED existence.
I think this was the course material for "Advanced Economics 545" at Columbia.
I love the disclaimer at the end: "NOT FOR RESALE" ... These guys are true idiots, and to think they actually run stuff, we are doomed (WAD) to say the least
Oh, I LOVE THAT!! The woman investing in jewelry is a "speculator", while the idiots trying to "expand their factories" (in today's economic climate?) are INVESTORS???
I'll bet they REALLY wanted to say "gold" but didn't dare, so "jewelry" remains an example of "speculation"....HAHAHAHAHAHAHA ROFLOL!
I think Zippy the Pinhead would be
a great spokesman for the Fed to
the little kiddies.
I can't wait to see how they branch out with subsequent issues. I see Blankfein getting bitten by a radioactive cockroach, giving him the proportionate survival instinct and loathsomeness of a cockroach.
He's really going to scurry into action if he fails to save his "uncle" Ben thereby teaching him that with great undeserved power comes great loathsomeness.
Ok, I threw up in my mouth a little when the guy on page 6 was pumping the inflation indexed bonds that guarantee his money will buy the same amount in 10 years. What a pile of tripe this shit is!

February 14th is not only about chocolates and teddy bears with hearts. It's also V-Day - a day of awareness about violence against women and girls.
V-Day was started by Eve Ensler, the author of 'The Vagina Monologues', and it's grown into a global event. So much so that today it's a celebration called One Billion Rising. The idea is for people worldwide to rise up and dance, sing and raise their voice to demand action to end the violence.
In South Florida, the event will be marked first at Florida International University (11200 SW 8th Street) with a street fair that will feature information and activity booths, entertainment and prizes. The fair runs from 9am - 2pm.
Then this evening, One Billion Rising invites the community to 'Rise and Be Counted' at the New World Symphony Sounsdcape Park. The event will include live performances by local dance groups and ...

Which groups? Well, those with "tea party" or "patriot" in their names and nonprofit groups that criticized the government and sought to educate Americans about the U.S. Constitution.
It's disgraceful that government bureaucrats, whether on their own initiative or at the direction of superiors, singled out anyone for special scrutiny, but what their selection criteria were makes it even worse. Reportedly, the IRS field office in charge of evaluating applications for tax-exempt status decided to focus on groups making statements that "criticize how the country is being run" and those that are engaged in educating Americans "on the Constitution and Bill of Rights."
Surely, we all understand the awesome and, frankly, horrifying power the IRS has come to have in our system, which originally didn't even contemplate an income tax, much less oversight of it by such a monstrous bureaucratic leviathan. What could be more chilling and destructive to our liberties than a government targeting -- that's its word, not mine -- private citizens and organizations based on their political and ideological views?
If the First Amendment means anything, it is that the full force of the federal government will be used to safeguard, not suppress, the liberties of American citizens to utter political speech, especially speech critical of the government. But instead, this IRS sought for abuse groups that criticized the administration and groups that wanted to teach people that under our Constitution, such government officials have no right to do this type of thing.
And you wonder why people favor a major overhaul of the tax system? What if low-level staffers in an obscure Cincinnati field office were actually solely responsible for this, as the administration is alleging? How could a system become so corrupt -- or how could officials overseeing it become so reckless -- as to make possible such a systematic abuse of power?
But speaking of this effort to pass the buck to "low-level" players: Can we not at least agree that the Obama administration has established a culture conducive to the type of stereotypical thinking that could lead to this? Didn't the Department of Homeland Security under this administration list right-wing groups as extremists and potential terrorists? Hasn't President Obama himself referred to tea partyers as "tea baggers"? Haven't other Democrats deliberately depicted tea party groups as violent extremists who are a hair trigger away from armed revolution?

Re: Transformations for converting data into normaly distributedEKrause-esristaff Feb 27, 2012 6:19 AM (in response to yatharth)You have a data value equal to 0, so the logarithmic and Box-Cox transformations won't work (the data has to be all positive). And you have data bigger than 1, so ArcSin won't work (all data has to be between 0 and 1).
There's also a Normal Score transformation (NST), but you only have 11 points, and that isn't near enough to do a valid NST.
With only 11 points, don't use kriging. We say that you should have at least 30 points to even attempt kriging, but you really should have 100 or more.

text: I am looking to buy small quantities of C41 chemicals in the UK. Paterson appear not to produce it now. Nova kits seem ideal except the shelf life for one litre which will process a dozen films is only 14 days and I don't do 6 films a week - anything from none to 4 a week is typical. Other kits , such as Speediebrews , are not suitable for normal processing. The Tetenal product in the title bar seems readily available. So the question is has anybody used it, is it suitable for low throughput amateur use and what are your views in general. Thanks Jeff PS I use MF so using minilabs is not an option and pro labs are too expensive.

Best Product for my dry skin
Posted by Reviewer2988811 on Mar 08, 2010
I bought this to try it on my dry skin after many different trials, and so far its been working for me, I like it and will stick with this for now.
Good idea
Posted by Reviewer1922796 on May 01, 2010
I tried this products for the first time. I didn't want to buy regular size because I didn't know if it works for my very sensitive skin. Just like all other reviews, this lines are wonderful. I can take this to trip.
Excellent products
Posted by Reviewer1822269 on Aug 25, 2010
Quality products for dry skin. I will buy again!

William Austin has two cats, Tiger and Laverne.
Tiger was named because, according to Austin, she looks like a tiger. Laverne earned her name from the popular 1970s TV show "Laverne and Shirley" that his parents, Paul and Linda, watched growing up.
The two felines have their own cat trees at the family's El Dorado Hills home. According to Austin, the cat trees are commonly known as cat condos.
Having two cats gave Austin, a member of Boy Scout Troop 454 in El Dorado Hills, a purr-fect project to earn his Eagle Scout badge.
Elvis Mc Can, the troop's scout master, suggested the idea to Austin to build a cat tree and donate it to the El Dorado County Humane Society in Diamond Springs. Austin was so enthusiastic about the project that he built four cat trees.
The first step toward the project for Austin was going online to see how cat trees are built. He downloaded the information and showed it to the board members of the humane society who gave its approval.
"We started building them from there," Austin said.
The first cat tree was completed in 10 days, spending an average of six hours a day, Austin said. Then the other three cat trees were built simultaneously and in lesser time. He had two teams of two people help in building the feline trees.
Today, the cat trees are in four separate rooms inside the society's building, 777 Pleasant Valley Road in Diamond Springs.
Austin purchased the materials at county lumber stores.
The Eagle Scout raised approximately $1,115 to build the cat trees. Most of the donations came from veterinarians in El Dorado County. The rest of the money was donations from family and friends.
According to its Website, the Boy Scouts' Eagle Scout Award was established in 1969 to acknowledge Eagle Scouts who have distinguished themselves on a national level, receiving recognition or eminence within their field and who have a strong record of voluntary service to their community.
The Eagle Scout badge is the highest award available to Boy Scouts that is presented through the local council and a local court of honor.

Once-hidden EU report reveals damage from biodiesel
Biofuels such as biodiesel from soy beans can create up to four times more climate-warming emissions than standard diesel or petrol, according to an EU document released under freedom of information laws.
The European Union has set itself a goal of obtaining 10% of its road fuels from renewable sources, mostly biofuels, by the end of this decade, but it is now worrying about the unintended environmental impacts.
Four major studies are under way.
Chief among those fears is that biofuel production soaks up grain from global commodity markets, forcing up food prices and encouraging farmers to clear tropical forests in the quest for new land.
Burning forests releases vast quantities of carbon dioxide and often cancels out many of the climate benefits sought from biofuels.
Biodiesel from North American soybeans has an indirect carbon footprint of 339.9 kilograms of CO2 per gigajoule - four times higher than standard diesel - said the EU document, an annex that was controversially stripped from a report published in December.
Editing the report caused one of the consultancies, Fraunhofer of Germany, to disown it partly in a disclaimer.
But it has now been made public after Reuters used freedom of information laws to gain a copy.
The EU's executive European Commission said it had not doctored the report to hide the evidence, but only to allow deeper analysis before publishing.
"Given the divergence of views and the level of complexity of the issue [...] it was considered better to leave the contentious analysis out of the report," the Commission said in a statement. "The analysis prepared under this study applied a methodology which by many is not considered appropriate."
Scientific neutrality
The annex adds some weight to a growing dossier suggesting biofuels are not as green as once thought -even the more advanced, second-generation biofuels made from wood chips.
"For the third time in six weeks the [European] Commission is forced to release studies about the climate effects of biofuels," said Nusa Urbancic of T&E, a campaign group for green transport.
"And for the third time these studies show that land use is the most important factor in deciding if biofuels make sense or not," Urbancic said.
Biodiesel from European rapeseed has an indirect carbon footprint of 150.3 kg of CO2 per gigajoule, while bioethanol from European sugar beet is calculated at 100.3 kg - both much higher than conventional diesel or gasoline at around 85 kg.
By contrast, imports of bioethanol from Latin American sugar cane and palm oil from Southeast Asia get a relatively clean bill of health from the study at 82.3 kg and 73.6 kg respectively.
But one of the scientists involved with the study cautioned that much work remained to be done before the issue was properly understood, and that no firm conclusions could be drawn about the relative merits of different biofuel sources.
"The major point is that we have to do more work, develop new sustainability criteria and we have to be very careful about the origins of biofuels," said Wolfgang Eichhammer of Fraunhofer.
"We must also find a way of excluding the inefficient biofuels," he added.
Eichhammer said he had made his stand with the disclaimer to protect the neutrality of science, and emphasised the value of ongoing Commission studies into the problem.
(EurActiv with Reuters.)
In December 2008, EU leaders reached agreement on a new Renewable Energy Directive, which requires each member state to satisfy 10% of its transport fuel needs from renewable sources, including biofuels, hydrogen and green electricity, by 2020 (see EurActiv LinksDossier).
The directive also established sustainability criteria for biofuels. It obliges the bloc to ensure that biofuels offer at least 35% carbon emission savings compared to fossil fuels. The figure rises to 50% as of 2017 and 60% as of 2018 (EurActiv 05/12/08).
However, concerns have been raised that increased biofuel production would result in massive deforestation and have severe implications for food security, as energy crops replace other land uses (so-called 'indirect land-use change').
The Renewable Energy Directive and the Fuel Quality Directive, agreed as part of the EU's climate change and energy package in December last year, require the European Commission to compile a report "reviewing the impact of indirect land-use change on greenhouse gas emissions" and to seek ways to minimise its impact (EurActiv 30/07/09).

Posted by Reviewer2876704 on Feb 05, 2012
These capsules really helped me to relax into a deep sleep. Very vivid dreams and I woke up feeling well rested. The only downside is I find one can easily adapt to amino acids and eventually the effects start to get weaker and one can become dependent on them. I think amino acids are best cycled and I shall be backing off from this product for a while.

Have been using this product since mid February and it is supposed to calm a person down of which I feel it has definitely helped me calm down and I believe it is helping me sleep better. My pharmacist put me on two capsules at dinnertime and 1 an hour before bed. She also has me on the Metagenics serenagen, four per day of which I believe that this is helping me with reducing anxiety, hot flushes and all the menopause related stuff. Definitely see your pharmacist before you jump in and start taking stuff that other people write a review on because overall each of our situations are different. I am taking other vitamins and meds for menopause besides what I've rated.
wow - surprised at how effective

I decided to try this out to help me with my social anxiety. I worked really well, but it is way to strong for me and vitamin B makes me irritable, even in small doses. So, I'm going to get the lower dose of 100 mg withough the inositol, and even cut that in half to 50 mg. trust me, don't start out with the strongest dose, lol. People kept asking me if I was OK all day, because I was so extremely mellow. But I was less frightened around strangers, which is great and what I was looking for anyway.

Hi. I get Skype ACTIVE X ERROR LIKE THIS
"One or more ActiveX controls could not be displayed"
whenever I login to Skype. I discovered somehow Skype was trying to connect to IE to display ads. Please fix this error ! I don't want to see Active X error messages all the time whenever I login to Skype! FIX YOUR ADS , SKYPE DEVELOPERS!
Solved! Go to Solution.
24-03-2013 13:16
Skype uses IE in the background whether you use IE or not. To me that error means your IE Active X settings are too restrictive. Not that Active X is broken. This usually happens when you have custom IE settings. It's just a warning box that can come up if anybody's IE is set up in that fashion. You can make modifications to those specific settings in your Internet Options or just reset your IE settings.
You can use the Fixit tool or follow the links on the page to do it manually.
24-03-2013 14:11
done that. and made IE Active X settings to zero restriction. Both did not help. Skype should have own system to display own ads!! big problem !!
24-03-2013 14:13
I didnt have this problem until version 6.
24-03-2013 14:32
I imagine it could happen due to Antivirus/Firewall or other adblocker/plugin software. Microsoft owns IE, so I guess it's all their software to be used as they see fit. Whether that's a wise decision or not. I have version 6.3 installed on most of my machines and I have not run into any ActiveX related errors when using Skype while the ads pop-up. If the problem is only local to a single computer you can try upgrading to the latest IE or downgrade Skype if it becomes too much of a hassle.
24-03-2013 20:27
It's not such a huge problem right now, but it's still *a problem*. I dont use any Firewall or Anti-virus by the way. I hope Skype reads this forum and fixes this Active X problem in the next version.
15-05-2013 21:48
I have this problem as well, and to me the issue is not solved.
No matter the ActiveX settings, the ads in Skype keep causing issues for me. The Active X pop-up is well-known to me as I sometimes get one every other minute.
In one instance it locked up Skype when the person I was talking with initiated a screen share before I could click on the "OK" button in the Active X pop-up, leading to this pop-up window disappearing and the conversation window becoming unresponsive.
I would have expressed my hope that this will change in the future, but considering how Skype is now owned by Microsoft, I shudder to think of the 'wonderful ways of integrating Skype into the Windows codebase' which would most likely only aggravate the issue further.
I do hope the Skype developers will prove me wrong on this, but I am already exploring other VoIP options just in case.

open the internet explorer and download and install the flash player through it. i had the same problem searched it online, found this solution, tried it and it worked for me! u just have to install the flash player through the internet explorer and not google chrome or mozilla! hope this fixes it for you no idea though why it happens or why its fixed this way!

The reason for this is that Skype is using Internet Explorer installed on your computer to download and play ads using Flash Player. Therefore, you need a version of Flash Player that works with your IE.
01-08-2013 01:33
I'm having this problem as well, I tried to do uninstall and reinstall my flash player from internet explorer but while I was easily able to uninstall I can't seem to find the link that will allow me to reinstall. I don't know what's going on, but it's annoying and I hope it gets fixed or at least looked at soon.

One Night Stand with the Supersampler3 Share Tweet
The Supersampler's multi-lens feature was one of the few things that had me enamored with Lomography. I'd admit I wasn't able to get enough mileage from it to give an in depth review, but here's my take!
The Supersampler is deceptively simple. You'd think that all you'd need to do is to wind, point, and click, but there's more to that than meets the eye. Like its 4-eyed sibling the Actionsampler, its specialty is action. It's where the camera thrives and shines.
If you're going to go with still-shots however, it's best to visualize things in columns, as that is what the Supersampler sees. I'd advise to stick to single subjects too, as having a bunch of people/objects will cram the shot and make in a crowded mess.
My gripe with this camera is what makes it unique as well – the ripcord. It's the reason that I only got to shoot one roll of film with it. I'll admit I may have been too aggressive in ripping it, and doing it while on a roller-coaster might have been a lapse of judgment on my part. I really wish though, that in the future we can get a version with a regular film advance, as the Supersampler still remains one of my favorite cameras.
The SuperSampler, the queen of multilensed cameras, is now in bright blue. It takes four sequential panoramic shots on a single, action-packed 35mm photo. See all SuperSampler colours and designs in our Shop!

The first in a series of new books by former detainees lifts the veil on the secretive and often bizarre world of the Iranian Intelligence Services.
February 21, 2010 4:53 by Iason Athanasiadis
She describes her time shuttling back and forth from her mother's home to an Intelligence Ministry interrogation cell and her eventual incarceration there. "He imagined that the Wilson Center was an agency of the American government, that we were implicated in some plot against the Islamic Republic, and that we routinely held meetings to plan strategy to this end."
Esfandiari was one of a number of Iranian academics educated or resident in the West, such as philosopher Ramin Jahanbegloo and urban planner Kian Tajbakhsh, who were arrested from 2006 onwards and accused of acting as vessels of Western influence agitating for a soft overthrow of the Islamic Republic.
"Just imagine a puzzle," Hajj Agha told Esfandiari, using the English word, for which he seemed unable to come up with a satisfactory Persian equivalent. "You have all the pieces in your head. Just put them together and give it to us. Tell us the mechanism, describe the model for us," as if there were a one-size-fits-all, do-it-yourself kit for bringing about soft revolutions.
The interrogators appeared well versed in Western political theory and bandied about the names of specialists such as Crane Brinton and Theda Skocpol who have expounded on revolution. Francis Fukuyama and Michael Foucault were also favorites of the Iranian Intelligence Service.
When I was in an Iranian prison, my own interrogators had a similar tendency to digress from purely intelligence-related questioning into debates on 'westoxification,' neo-liberalism, and their perception of non-violent movements as Trojan Horses for Western influence. While waiting in the corridor to be processed through the prison bureaucracy, she saw Persian-language Shiite eschatological tracts or thick tomes refuting Saudi Arabia's variant of Wahhabi Sunnism.
Esfandiari's interrogators also appear to have been inspired by her predecessor in Evin, Ramin Jahanbegloo. The Iranian-Canadian political theorist and student of Isiah Berlin was so talkative, Esfandiari writes, that he may well have inspired the Iranian authorities to arrest her in the first place.
Unlike the British sailors that were arrested in Iran in 2007 or the three American hikers that are currently imprisoned in Evin Prison, Esfandiari is an Iranian who grew up there and perfectly comprehends both sides of the debate. In one of the book's most engaging sections, she lays out the "simple, even compelling, but ultimately mad logic" that drove her interrogators' reasoning.
"The United States wanted regime change in Iran; American officials had repeatedly said so. Congress had allocated funds for this purpose and the administration, no doubt had additional secret funds at its disposal. These funds were given to think tanks and foundations, such as the National Endowment for Democracy, whose mission was to advance democratization – in effect, regime change – in specifically targeted countries.
1 Comment
On page 150 of her book Esfandiari describes the way the Iranian security service saw her. "There was a simple, even compelling, but ultimately mad logic to Hajj Agha's theory … a "logical" conclusion that, examined dispassionately, was simply wrong, divorced from reality."
I have researched the facts available on the internet in much the same way as the Iranian security service must have done, and I agree the facts are compelling that she is a CIA agent. See the facts laid out at http://www.peakoil.org.au/news/index.php?esfandiari.htm, including a link to the confession video.
But where is the "logical" refutation to go with the statement that they were "simply wrong" ? She doesn't give one ! Out of a 230-page book, there is no logical refutation of the compelling argument that she is a CIA agent, someone who uses the cover of being an academic to go back and forth to Iran, while working for a US Government financed think tank, quite possibly handing out passwords to secure internet connections, so that Iranian dissidents can feed subversive information back to Washington.
For all her protestations of innocence, there is nothing to prove it. For all her assertions of Iranian paranoia, and "mad logic", she makes no logical argument at all as to why they are wrong. I can only assume, then, that she is what the Iranians say she is. Having been exposed, she is no longer of any use as an agent, (no one in Iran would dare be found plotting with her) so they let her go.

Championship - Birmingham win at Burnley
Birmingham beat Burnley 3-1 at Turf Moor to consolidate their place in fourth position in the Championship table.
Chris Hughton's men are now six points behind third-placed West Ham, but more importantly they extended the gap between them and seventh-placed Middlesbrough to three points by winning their game in hand.
Marlon King opened the scoring in the first half, but Birmingham were pegged back in the second by Danny Ings's 74th minute strike.
However, Jordon Mutch scored his first goal for the Blues just 90 seconds later, and David Murphy netted a third with three minutes left on the clock.
As expected, Burnley were without Martin Paterson, who limped out of Saturday's 5-1 win over Portsmouth with a hamstring injury. The injury came just six weeks after he returned from a similar problem.
Top-scorer Jay Rodriguez is recovering from a hip problem, so Charlie Austin started up front after scoring his first hat-trick for the club as a substitute on Saturday.
Birmingham made just one change from the side that won 3-1 at Doncaster on Friday, with Wade Elliott replacing Andros Townsend in midfield.
There was a good reception from the Turf Moor fans for former players Elliott and Steven Caldwell before the game. Birmingham captain Caldwell led Burnley to the Championship play-off win over Sheffield United in May 2009, while Elliott was the goalscorer against the Blades at Wembley.
Caldwell almost gifted his former side a goal in the first minute of the game with a misplaced header that gave Josh McQuoid an early sight of goal. However, with Birmingham goalkeeper Boaz Myhill way off his line, the forward failed to get an effort on target.
Birmingham took the lead in the 11th minute, after the Burnley defence had switched off when facing a Murphy throw. Nikola Zigic flicked on, allowing King to net his 16th goal of the season with a first-time effort that deflected off goalkeeper Lee Grant and in.
Birmingham have lost 25 points from a winning position this season, the highest in the division, a statistic that would have given Burnley some hope.
But Eddie Howe's men could not keep hold of the ball in midfield, and consequently were unable to feed Saturday's hat-trick hero Austin.
The only chance of note for the home side was a bullet header from David Edgar in the 28th minute from a Kieran Trippier corner, which went wide.
Birmingham started the second half again the brighter side, and King should have scored when set up one-on-one down the right side of the area, but defender Michael Duff came back to brilliantly block.
But Burnley slowly started to gain a foothold in the game, with Ings turning and shooting in the 50th minute, and Myhill looked unconvincing when saving the snapshot.
The introduction of Junior Stanislas midway through the half galvanised the home side. His worrying of the Birmingham defence forced a poor clearance from Myhill, which allowed Austin a chance to control the clearance and then shoot towards goal from 35 yards. However, Curtis Davies was alert and able to clear on the line.
On 71 minutes, Stanlislas then crossed for Ings, whose shot hit the bar, then Austin headed the rebound against the woodwork.
An equaliser seemed inevitable, and it finally arrived two minutes later with Stanislas again instrumental.
The 22-year-old played a one-two down the left with Ross Wallace, and the Scot's cross was perfect for Ings to head home his second goal of the season, and his first goal at Turf Moor.
It had been all Burnley in the second half, but they then switched off and allowed Zigic a chance, then just 90 seconds later Mutch made it 2-1 with a cool finish after King had been allowed space down the right to hook back the ball into the penalty area.
Birmingham made it 3-1 with three minutes to go, Mutch's free-kick was only half-saved by Grant, and David Murphy had time and space to shoot home the rebound for his sixth goal of the season.
