The Power of Independent Thinking
Robert Higgs: Warfare, Welfare, and the State

Clifford Thies on the American Economic Association and Richard T. Ely
Recorded: Monday, November 28, 2011
The American Economic Association (AEA) takes pride in celebrating its founder Richard T. Ely. This pride is strange, given the character of Elys thought, which is revealed in The Independent Review article The Shaping of a Future Presidents Economic Thought: Richard T. Ely and Woodrow Wilson at The Hopkins by Gary M. Pecquet and Clifford F. Thies, as well as the Econ Journal Watch article Richard T. Ely: The Confederate Flag of the AEA? by Clifford F. Thies and Ryan Daza. In this podcast, Thies is interviewed by the economist Lawrence H. White and explores Elys ideas, values, and impact. Thies is the Eldon R. Lindsay Chair of Free Enterprise and Professor of Economics and Finance at Shenandoah University.

Whenever we read an editorial letter we are tempted to look for the author's bias and this may determine whether we will continue reading.
We are loyal to our own bias and often this closes our mind to consider the accuracy of the opinion or information. Having said this, I have been looking at the events in Washington and around the country. There seems to be a clear right and wrong that is either not being reported vigorously enough, or is being subjected to political spin to justify behavior, which I cannot believe is acceptable to the average citizen.
During my time as state superintendent, I've visited more than 220 schools, in every county in South Carolina.
One thing our education leaders repeatedly tell me, is "If we had the same flexibility as public charter schools, we could be more effective." I totally agree.
I support flexibility for schools and districts so they can make decisions that are best for their diverse communities.
I do not advocate increasing class sizes as The Lancaster News story, "Zais' proposal worries educators," said in the Oct. 11 edition.
October is National Long-Term Care Residents' Rights Month. It is a time to acknowledge the contributions and sacrifices many long-term care (LTC) residents have made to better our community and to call attention to the rights of residents in long-term care facilities.
This year's theme, "Speak Out Against Elder Abuse," was selected to call attention to the fact that elder abuse is an issue that shouldn't be taken lightly.
The abuse of long-term care residents is an occurrence that not many people like to acknowledge or report.
Jesus said that the Old Testament scriptures "are they which testify of me" (John 5:39).
Alumnus Jon Turner laments the state of journalism in a letter, suggesting journalism students would be better advised to "follow the money" rather than their passion for journalism.
Following the money is itself a good journalistic practice. It's what Deep Throat advised Woodward and Bernstein to do in unearthing the details of the Nixon Watergate scandal.
It's the money trail that often brings politicians, shady corporate types, deluded athletic stars and the occasional despot to heel.
Fall is getting busy at the Lancaster County Treasurer's office. While our primary focus is improving customer service for county taxpayers, another important priority is developing partnerships with other public officials who can help the treasurer's office do an even better job.
National Newspaper Week, Oct. 6-12, is a good time to offer a fresh perspective on the newspaper industry.
To paraphrase what Mark Twain said about the premature printing of his obituary, let me say that the reports of the death of newspapers in our state and nation are greatly exaggerated.
While the printed edition continues to be the core product, many newspaper media companies today also offer news in a variety of digital options: websites, text alerts, mobile sites, social media sites, apps and more.
As the chief advocate for seniors and vulnerable adults in our state, I was deeply troubled and saddened that services for a federally-funded program designed to keep veterans in their homes instead of nursing homes is being terminated because of lack of support by the Veterans' Administration.
A program that is both cost effective (on average three times less expensive) and will allow our elderly, disabled, or injured heroes the opportunity to live in familiar surroundings with their loved ones has not been given the priority it deserves.
During the last couple of Lancaster County Council meetings, we have talked about cluster developments, applying for a volunteer firefighter retention grant and a capital projects sales tax. These three issues have raised questions and the cluster development overlay district (CDOD) has been shadowed in confusion, so I would like to talk about them in this column.

NEW YORK (AP) -- New York City police have identified a man they say was shoved to his death in front of a subway train by a woman.
Police said Friday that Sunando Sen was pushed from the platform the night before. The 46-year-old Sen was from India and lived alone in Queens.
Investigators identified him through a smartphone and a prescription pill bottle he was carrying when he was struck by a 7 train. His family in India has been notified.
Police are searching homeless shelters and psychiatric units for the woman believed to have pushed him. Witnesses say she was mumbling before she shoved him without warning.
It's the second time this month a man has been pushed to his death on the subway tracks.

The health benefits of these non-gmo, survival heirloom seeds are more widely known now than in years past, and people are taking a stand against high supermarket prices.

Could I feed my family if I had to?
Do I have the right kind of seeds for my region? Can I save the seeds from my harvest to plant the following year?

Not with us! You pay one low price for the original Survival Seed Vault and receive a large balance of Patriot Seeds from the most recent harvest.

One person has died after an explosion at an oil rig site north of Craig in Moffat County.
Sheriff's investigator Jeremy Ashton says a tank that held water left over from hydraulic fracturing exploded Thursday morning. Ashton says investigators suspect the person who died was using a propane heater to thaw frozen valves. He says the explosion may have been caused by residual oil in the tank.
Hydraulic fracturing involves blasting pressurized water, chemicals and sand into underground rock formations to free oil and natural gas.
The Craig Daily Press reports the explosion was reported at a rig maintained by Axia Energy, which didn't immediately return a phone message seeking comment late Thursday.

Server:Tichondrius US

This article is a realm page for the Tichondrius US realm (server)
This is a community maintained page and does not represent official World of Warcraft history or occurrences. Information and events here are for community documentation of server particulars, history, or opinion.
Tichondrius is a Pacific Time PvP server that came online upon the release of World of Warcraft.
PvP on Tichondrius
- One of the original 13 servers upon release; Tichondrius became well-known as a hardcore PvP community during the release of cross-realm battlegrounds and has since become one of the best PvP servers in all of WoW content.
- Tichondrius is considered to be one of the most hardcore PvP servers in the world, although Server:Blackrock US is often said to have more hard-core world pvp.
Famous Players on Tichondrius
- Tichondrius plays host to some amazing players. Most notable of these players is the elusive "Franksintra". Legends have it that Franksintra has the highest recorded MMR (Match Making Rating) in WoW arena history (3412). This was achieved by entering solo into 3v3 matches, and simply never being killed due to his casts being un-kickable from years of fake-casting practice in the mountains of Malaysia.
Tichondrius IRC Channel (irc.gamesurge.net)
- #battlegroup9 - The Bloodlust (BG9) battlegroup channel, most of the IRC moderators are from Tichondrius.
- T A O (Horde) and Notorious (Alliance) showed the world of their hardcore style of WSG play and easily dominated every PvP team on the PTR realm as well as on the battlegroup. The two guilds are blamed for bringing many transfers to the server that wish to seek competition.
- The Battlegroup 9 Warsong Gulch League is largely considered the beginning of WoW organized PvP across servers with rankings and an official ladder with standings, scores and rosters. The WSG League originated from PvP guilds and players on the Tichondrius realm seeking to promote competitive PvP play in an organized capacity. Any team on BG9 wishing to participate were able to sign up and participate in the league. Matches were organized over voice communication to sync up Queues for WSG and final scoreboard screenshots were posted at the completion of the match. At the end of the first season of the league Notorious and T A O finished first and second respectively, Notorious having won the championship match. Winning this championship spurred a WSG match between Notorious and the guild Nurfed who were part of a highly competitive 5v5 PvP scene on their own server. The match took place on the PTR server as Nurfed was not yet on a BG9 server. During the match Nurfed showed off their organized team fighting skills winning the overall Kill-Death ratio on the final scoreboard averaging 44 kills while the Notorious teamaveraged 32 kills. However Notorious' familiarity of advanced WSG tactics and their experience playing countless games gave them the edge winning the match 3-0 in 51 minutes. In addition to prompting Nurfed to server transfer to BG9, it also lead to a few of their team members leaving Nurfed to join Notorious, forming the Arena team "Power Trip."
- At the release of the Arena system, team "Power Trip" gained much popularity for their dominance of the qualifiers and Bloodlust battlegroup and was sponsored by Team Pandemic([1]). This team has been recognized as the best PvP team in the world by sweeping all the WSVG events and also winning the 'Fury Challenge' ([2]) in a cross-genre battle between CS:S Team Turmoil. Team Pandemic is mostly made of transfers but Ecilam and Nitrana of Pandemic are Tichondrius bred.
- Other noteable sponsored teams on Tichondrius are: Team Fnatic([3]) (Made up of the founders/officers of Insurrection), Check Six([4]) (Made up mostly of [5] rerollers from Blackrock, the 2nd team ever to be sponsored in WoW, after Pandemic), and MoB TurtleForce([6]) (Transfers from Reckoning and team of Zecks).

Palm oil is a derivative of the Oil Palm (Elaeis guineensis) that originates in the tropics of western Africa. The oil is extracted from the fruit and kernel, and has been used for medicine and as a source of food for 5000 years.
Throughout the 18th century traders introduced the plant to the tropical regions of South-east Asia, where the plantations supplied the burgeoning demand for oil resulting from the industrial revolution, when it was used as a lubricant in steam engines and in soap production.
The Oil Palm produces two distinct oils from its fruit. The oil used in the production of foodstuffs is derived from the flesh of the fruit. This is used in cooking oils; shortening; margarines; as a milk fat replacement and in cocoa butter substitutes. The other oil, derived from the kernel, is mainly used to make soaps, detergents, toiletries and cosmetics.
Palm oil can be found in one in four food products in Australia, from margarine to chocolate biscuits, and chips to crackers.
What is the difference between 'sustainable' and 'unsustainable' palm oil?
Unsustainable palm oil production:
- Clears tropical rainforest displacing animal species and traditional land users
Results in mono-culture plantations that significantly reduce biodiversity
Sustainable palm oil production:
- Provides for and conserves natural resources
- Develops new plantations on existing cleared land
- Fairly deals with workers, small-scale suppliers and local communities
Palm oil is much cheaper than other comparable oils and it's naturally occurring, so what's the problem with using it?
There is no doubt that palm oil is a "good" oil in many respects. The main problem lies with farming practices.
Within the last two decades palm oil production has increased enormously with most of the oil exported into international markets. This has provided income and sustenance for developing communities in Indonesia and Malaysia. But it has also resulted in loss of habitat for many threatened species including the Sumatran Tiger, Orang-utan, Asian Elephant and Asian rhinoceros species as well as displacement of some indigenous peoples.
Palm oil is one of the least expensive oils to produce. It is a high yielding crop - palms crop for several years and both the kernel and the seed of the plant produce oil. Unfortunately its cost effectiveness is paid for by many, many species of animal – some critically endangered.
Planting Oil Palms to harvest palm oil is a way of staving off starvation for some people in Asia - why are you against it?
We want industry to move towards sustainability. It is best for human communities and best for animals and their habitats.
We do not advocate the boycotting of palm oil. We strongly encourage businesses and consumers to demand their palm oil is sourced using sustainable plantation practices and that businesses work towards ensuring this via fully traceable and certified supply chains – just like the Marine Stewardship Council provides confidence in responsible fisheries and the Forest Stewardship Council certifies sustainably-sourced timber for paper, furniture and building.
Why is the Zoo involving itself in this debate?
The Zoos are committed to wildlife conservation. Nearly one quarter of the world's mammals, nearly one third of amphibians and more than 1 in 8 of all bird species are at risk of extinction. At out Zoos we see 1.5 million people every year and we aim to inspire them to care for wildlife and take whatever action they can to protect wild habitats.
Who are the other stakeholders in this issue?
- The peoples of South-east Asia
- Many multinational food and cosmetic producers
- The Roundtable for Sustainable Palm Oil
- Palm Oil Action Group Australia
- 21st Century Tiger

Four suspects in two armed robberies in their own town are accused of the same crime in another city.
Kinston police announced last week that five men ages 16 to 20 were charged for armed robberies outside the Kmart on North Queen Street on July 17, and outside the Walgreens on North Herritage Street two days later.
Greenville police records show, on the same day of the North Herritage Street hold-up, four of the five suspects charged in Kinston were arrested for robbing two people at gunpoint at a home on West 3rd Street in Greenville.
The suspects in the Greenville case are Senjen Jones, Christian Russell, Shakeer Patrick and Raiquan Kornegay. It's not clear from police records at this hour whether a fifth suspect in the Kinston cases is also charged in the 3rd Street hold up.

So its been over 8 months since this article. Assuming they started work before this article was written, it doesn't take that long to add what is essentially a 'basic' feature as it doesn't require any post processing. Where is this?
Google reworks Android's camera API, confirms Raw imaging
Google has confirmed that Android phones will be able to take Raw photos in the future. Google has given its camera API a complete makeover in an attempt to make app development easier for programmers. When the new API rolls out, it will allow apps to take photos in Raw as well as capture in a burst mode.
"Android's latest camera HAL (hardware abstraction layer) and framework supports raw and burst-mode photography," Google spokesperson Gina Scigliano told CNET. "We will expose a developer API [application programming interface] in a future release to expose more of the HAL functionality."
As we've seen with Nokia's DNG files, RAW photography helps fix some of the flaws common in smartphone photos. Digital noise can be reduced, white balance can be corrected and small adjustments can be made to fix exposure issues. Android's new burst mode can be beneficial for action shots, but it can also be used for HDR photography like the Nexus 5's HDR+ feature.
Google details Android's new camera API here. While it may read like nonsense to non-programmers, there are still a few details to get excited about. A simpler API may prove enticing for programmers and the new API also gives easy access to a lot more camera features.
From the HAL overview:
Further, this simplified view makes it easier for application developers to use the camera's various functions. [...] This includes: resolution and pixel format; manual sensor, lens and flash control; 3A operating modes; RAW->YUV processing control; statistics generation; and so on.
Google is not ready to give a release date for the software, but it promises that the new API will ship "in a future release." Hopefully in the next candy-themed Android update, we will get some Raw sweetness.

Like the offensive line, the Bruins are still hungry to land players on the defensive front, too. UCLA has 10 offers out to defensive lineman and there will undoubtedly be more. BruinBlitz.com continues its series on UCLA targets with offers that we have been able to track down. The prospects are listed in alphabetical order.DT/DE Todd Barr, Jr. (6-4, 265, 4.8) Lakewood, Calif.Skinny: Very explosive off the ball and almost impossible to block on the high school level. He has a high motor and he keeps it revved up whistle to whistle. He's an outstanding leader, who leads by example and deed, plus he's a team first type of guy. He had a good time when he visited UCLA on junior day. He is expected to be a visitor during spring ball.For the rest of the story, please log onto BruinBlitz.com... ...More...

News 12 at 6 o'clock / Friday, March 22, 2013
AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW) -- Columbia County Schools came together to celebrate the spirit of Olympic competition on Friday.
As the athletes walked through the hallways, the excitement was subdued. But outside, the excitement got turned up a notch.
Steven Cummings, principal at Columbia Middle School, says everyone at his school is treated the same.
"Everybody has different challenges, and it's very important to me to let all students know that they are equally important," Cummings said.
On this day, kids with limitations are embraced.
Obioma Ekechukwu, father of a sixth grader in the Special Olympics, says it's good to have a day where everyone can relate.
"When you see somebody who's in need, don't walk by them," he said. "Ask them if they need something and help them out. Give 'em a hand."
And that's what days like this are all about.
Franklin Reeder, a student at Columbia Middle, earned first place in the long jump.
Reeder led the crowd with the pledge and afterwards played it cool, just like any star would.
"I feel a little bit happy here," he said.
It was a day to celebrate all these Special Olympians and embrace them for who they are.
Friday's event at Greenbrier High School lasted almost the whole day, with kids competing in everything from long jumps to runs.

I may not like everything that the current staff has done, but I will say that I am hearing that this offseason has been very intense. They are working hard, I think everyone knows how important this season is. I think the staff made some serious changes in the way they were doing things and are making each athlete stay after and lift, and I am thinking that they are making them run track as well. As far as first, second, or third in district..................I really don't care. I just want them in the playoffs. I am not saying that EF will win district, state, or anything else. I am saying that if you think that EF will not close the gap between themselves and Hughes Springs you are ####. EF is returning nearly every starter this season and adding a few new faces. Anyone know where EF plays Pewitt and Hughes Springs?
Schedule is not out yet, but the teams we have been playing should continue as follows for this year:
HS home
LK away
ND home
OC home
Waskom home
DeKalb ?

Is it possible that the U.S. governments response to the 9/11 attacks has served al-Qaeda interests? Despite the hype, U.S. law-enforcement officials have found little evidence of serious terrorist activities inside the country, compelling them to escalate their use of prosecution and entrapment to justify their enormous budgets.

Innovative Solutions for Iraq
Recorded: Thursday, February 16, 2006
The recent elections in Iraq have not resolved the main problems therea constitutional crisis, continued terrorism, a potent Sunni rebellion, and fighting between religious and ethnic groups that could result in a full-blown civil war. Is the Iraq war a hopeless quagmire that has been lost, or can the U.S. still foster a united, peaceful and prosperous Iraq?

- Abstract
- We report on structural characterization of void-structures created by a micro-explosion at the locus of a tightly focused femtosecond laser pulse inside the crystalline phase of Al2O3 (R3c space group). The transmission electron microscopy (TEM), micro-X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, and Raman scattering revealed a presence of strongly structurally modified amorphous regions around the void-structures. We discuss issues of achieving the required resolution for structural characterization and assignment of newly formed phases of nano-crystallites by TEM, XRD, and Raman scattering from micro-volumes of modified materials enclosed inside the bulk of the host phase.

Official Puddle Trailer
In Puddle, the avatar is represented by a large amount of liquid particles, flowing from a part of a level to the other. The player isn't allowed to act directly on the avatar, he is only able to tilt the level to the right or the left. Liquid properties and level design are always different, rejuvenating the fun at each level for the player. The slowness of the tilt and the lack of friction on the liquid require the player to anticipate the dangers. The player doesn't have to bring his entire puddle to the goal, but only to keep as much as he can, dodging fire, rifts, and other dangers.

Three generations of women in the same Maine family bagged a deer while hunting on the same day.
PERU, Maine (AP) _ Twelve-year-old Katelyn Carlow of Peru shot her first deer on Friday, a 125-pound doe.
Her mother, Julie Carlow, shot a 130-pound doe at a different time on the same day.
Katelyn's grandmother and Carlow's mother, Brenda Gammon, got a six-point buck weighing about 150 pounds.
Gammon, the Region 9 School of Applied Technology director, told the Sun Journal it was a "freaky day."
Gammon's husband, David, bagged an eight-point buck earlier in the season.

Many parents find their toddler's bedtime to be the hardest part of the day. Children this age often resist going to sleep, especially if they have older siblings who are still awake. Use the following tips to help your toddler develop good sleep habits:
1. Set up a quiet routine before bedtime to help your child understand that it will soon be time to go to sleep. Use this time to read him a story, listen to quiet music, or give him a bath. It may be tempting to play with your child before bed. However, active play may make your child too excited to sleep.
2. Be consistent. Make bedtime the same time every night. This helps your child know what to expect and helps him establish healthy sleep patterns.
3. Allow your child to take a favorite thing to bed each night. It's OK to let your child sleep with a teddy bear, special blanket, or some other favorite toy. These often help children fall asleep—especially if they wake up during the night. Make sure the object is safe. Look for ribbons, buttons, or other parts that may be choking hazards. Stuffing or pellets inside stuffed toys can also be dangerous.
4. Make sure your child is comfortable. He may like to have a drink of water, a light left on, or the door left slightly open. Try to handle your child's needs before bedtime so that he doesn't use them to avoid going to sleep.
5. Do not let your child sleep in the same bed with you. This can make it harder for him to fall asleep when he is alone.
6. Do not return to your child's room every time he complains or calls out. Instead, try the following:
7. Give it time. Helping your child develop good sleep habits can be a challenge, and it is normal to get upset when a child keeps you awake at night. Try to be understanding. A negative response by a parent can sometimes make a sleep problem worse.
