accessible interactions or with disparate others. Affectual reports related to alienation included boredom in inaccessible interactions; awareness of potential rejection by hearing peers; shyness, anger, nervousness, and discomfort in the presence of hearing children who do not sign; discomfort with teasing by hearing peers; frustration in some communicative interactions; and for one child, association of deafness with illness and fear of becoming ill or developing disabling conditions ( Sheridan, 1996).
A third theme that emerged from this study is overt and covert identity. This theme describes who children see as similar to and different from themselves and how they make those distinctions. The children in the study were able to tell us through phenomenological interviews how they determine who is deaf, hearing, and hard of hearing.
With domesticated and disparate others, the children may or may not be aware of the actual hearing status of the person they are observing. The child's judgment of a person as similar to or different from him or herself is related to observations of the person's communication, whether the person uses assistive devices, and acceptance of and sense of belonging with the person.

You make a very interesting point about society and what is accpetable. I will try to keep this thread about football but there is a wider issue.
Shakespear and his plays are associated with the Royal Theatre and considered highbrow. Yet when they were first performed the audience was encouraged to participate much in the same way as a modern pantomime. In fact at Christmas time while watching 'The Snow Queen' my kids were actively encouraged to boo and hiss at the baddies and cheer the goodies often causing long script pauses during the performance.
Why then is it wrong to boo and jeer the baddie in black on a saturday afternoon?
I do concede that all to often the ugly heads of racism and bigotry enter our football arenas and this cannot be tolerated on any level. But with regards to the hostility of fans towards each other during the game is surely part and parcel of football. Those of us with at least average intelligence know to leave it on the terraces when we leave the ground.
My kids would not have jeered the actress playing the 'Snow Queen' if they met her in the foyer, they would know that the performance was over and it was time to return to reality.
So let it be with football.
Please allow me the couple of hours of escapism that football gives me before i have to return to the nanny state that tells me what to say, think, do, etc. Allow me to question the parentage of a bad referee, or the eye sight of an indecisive linesman.
My kids know the difference why cant everybody else?

Just think now you'll get all the Stallone #$%$ too!
- 1 Reply to A Yahoo! User
This is the first time ever I went to an Everton Match. The only reason which lead me to go was to see Sylvestor stallone on the field.
It was great!! however, I took my wife and her friend but was let down by the appauling swearing behind me and around me.
I was just thinking; not only the swearing put me off but also when 1 of the key players for reading got injured there were shouts of "get him off the F***** T*** etc"
Why am I subject to all this? what makes me feel that the atmosphere was electric? Nothing! - It was full of abuse, anger, scorn, threats and vulgarity. I never witnessed this when I went to see liverpool play in sept 1996 when they played chelsea and won.
I'm not that much of a football fan by any means and only wish that the best teams win!! I support both, because it's a game at the end of the day and they are there to win in the best sportsmans kind of way! Not in a war-like attitude!
How can anyone pay and expect top results? There's more to football, it's about encouragement, support, strength, skill and all kinds before anyone wins. These contribute to winning from both fans and management! Thank you
And regards to Stallone for the one who says "stallone #$%$ etc" I would like you to know that; We should be priveliged that sylvestor came to liverpool to see your horrible scouse attitude!!
...and news about Danny Cadamarteri, I mean thanks Danny, and all that, but it was 10 bleedin' years ago!

FloriDUH: Man at bar wanted a threesome — got to chill in jail instead
Just another day in paradise.
The Paradise Pub in Key Largo, that is.
A husband and wife were at the Paradise Pub on Tuesday night when a man, Dustin Hicks, reportedly asked them for a cigarette before extending an intimate invitation to them: Hicks put his arm around the wife and asked if she'd like to have sex with him and his girlfriend, according to a Monroe County Sheriff's Office release.
This apparently didn't go down well with the woman's hubby, who confronted the man.
Hicks then slapped and punched the husband before hitting him with a bar stool, according to the release.
During the altercation, 20-year-old Jessica Brown, of Wildwood, Fla., wanted to get into the action.
She allegedly walked up to the husband and also punched him — and his wife as well, according to the release.
Another person in the bar told a deputy that Hicks also punched him "for no reason". That was before Thomas Gallagher, 26, of Key Largo, pushed him to the ground during the altercation, according to the release.
Brown was still fighting during her arrest, allegedly kicking a deputy several times. She continued to fight and kick as she was transported to the Plantation Key jail.
Once at the jail, she also fought with corrections officers.
Brown was charged with two counts battery on a law enforcement officer, two counts of battery and criminal mischief. Hicks was charged with three counts of battery and one count of aggravated battery. Gallagher was charged with one count of battery. All three are in the Monroe County jail.

It's a strange world as far as the Central Intelligence Agency, FederalBureau of Investigation, Alcohol-Tobacco-and-Firearms Bureau, Internal RevenueService, Secret Serve, Drug Enforcement Agency, and similar anti-Americancitizen agencies are concerned. These agencies have agents trained in counter-intelligenceand counter-insurgency. Do you know what these terms really mean? They meanthat these agencies are trained to lie to the American people, the AmericanPresident, Congress, the Justice Department, the United Nations, foreigngovernments, and even to God Himself.
Only their intelligence mission du jour is important. The rest of us cango to hell. So, when you read the newspaper about terrorists or militiasor foreign trends, toss some salt over your right shoulder. That way, whenthey pull your leg, it will taste better to the cannibals after your sorrygoose has been cooked.
Waco ElectronicHolocaust Museum--WARNING! GRAPHIC!
This is a site that is a must visit area, but only if you are not squeamish.The burned bodies of the children are on display along with the volumesof government lies in this coverup. If you can't take it, then DON'T gohere. You have been warned!!! Are you going to let the government burn 25little children in a church like this and get away with it? No? So, whatare you going to do about it? Nothing most likely. Like you always do nothingabout everything.
Assassination -- Coverup -- The President JohnF. Kennedy Fiasco
Who would think that the United States would allow a President to be shot,much less steal his brain so that the autopsy couldn't be held properly?Who would think such a thing is possible? Certainly not the government....Click this link and take a look at the autopsy head shot of the dead Presidentlying naked on the autopsy table. As you can see, his brain was alreadymissing. The brain has never been found. No one knows who has it, who tookit, or when.
Ever wonder what might be in yours? Oh, that government!!!
Government Always Knows Better Than ThePeople What To Do

You Mean that the CIA MightBe Behind the Crack Epidemic in Black America?
Oh, no, Virginia! Don't tell me that the U.S. Government's CIA importedcrack into the United States in order to use illicit drug money to fundits clandestine projects? No! The government wouldn't do that. The governmentloves black people. Right? Oh, please tell me it isn't true....
Oklahoma City Bombing
Ever wonder about whether or not the Oklahoma City Murray Building was bombedby the U.S. Government? Lots of people wonder about this. None of the storiesseem to jive with the facts that are out. First, there were Arab terroristsseen, and then there weren't. Next, there were several bomb blasts, andthen there was only one. Then, the diggers at the site found more bombswired inside the building. Then, they said it was from a truck bomb outside.Then, the general said that only a bomb inside the Murray Federal Buildingcould do that. Then, someone pointed out that all the FBI and ATF workersweren't there on that day. Then, they said that the police knew the bombwent off even before it exploded, and the fire engines were already on theway. Well, you get the picture. Curious, no?
TWA Flight 800
Was the downing of TWA Flight 800 an accident, the act of a terrorist organization,a passenger's relative wanting the insurance? "Here, Honey. Takethis surprise package. I know it ticks. It's a nice clock, baby."Will we ever know for sure? What about the approximately 60-100 people onthe ground and in the air--two of whom were Air Force Pilots who ought toknow--that they say a missile fly up and hit Flight 800? And why did theAdmiral of the U.S. Navy fly up within one hour after the shoot down ofFlight 800 if it wasn't a shoot down by accident by someone of the U.S.Navy aircraft carrier down in the ocean under Flight 800?

You are the President of the United States. JFK has just been assassinated,and you need some reason to gain support in the U.S. Senate for the Warin Vietnam. You desperately need to make sure the CIA doesn't kill you theway it killed John Fitzgerald Kennedy. The U.S.S. Maine is sunk already,so you can't use that anymore. So, what do you do, if you are LBJ and youare a paranoid about getting a bullet in the back of the head like thateffete snob from Hyannis Port, JFK? Easy. The Gulf of Tonkin!!!! Now,I'm safe.

Thirty-four men died and 171 werewounded. The attack has been a matter of controversy ever since. Survivorsand many key government officials including Secretary of State Dean Ruskand former JCS Chairman Admiral Thomas Moorer say it was no accident. Israeland its supporters insist it was a "tragic case of misidentification"and charge that the survivors are either lying or too emotionally involvedto see the truth.

Or should they stick to Pathmark brand white rice?
Are organic foods/lean meats luxury items?

They can buy them while on foodstamps but they wont get as much and perhaps not have enought money to buy everything else they need. I dont think they should be given more JUST to buy organic.
Why? I dont think they should be given more so that they can purchase organic because a lot of people that are not on any type of assistance can't afford those foods either. IMO in the grand scheme of things, it would be best if all foods were created equal in term,s of safety.
I'm pretty sure if it's you we're talking about, then my answer will be " It's selfish and disgusting."
The spawn: Haydon 10-28-07 Presley 5-12-11
I think it should be up to whoever is buying the food. I agree with PP, if people want to buy organic food while using FS that's fine, but it IS more expensive and FS might run out faster. Same as using money, depends on what you want to pay for.
If that person wants to buy organic/whole foods I don't see a problem, probably much better for them, however the generic (which I buy cause I'm broke LoL ) they can get more for their money..

They're better for peopler and/or the environment. If that's what it means to be a luxury...
What girl doesn't want to play a crack whore? - Gina Torres
they can buy what they want with the money they are given. If they want to eat hot dogs every day than they can do that. If they want to eat carrot sticks then eat carrot sticks. Who cares what food they buy as long as they are feeding their family with the money and not selling their food stamps or using them to buy drugs. I don't care as long as its being used for food.

It's a girl!!! December 26

They should buy what they need and can legally buy. Organic food is more expensive and a person on GA may want to stretch their dollar more to try and make it last as long as possible. Others may think organic food is important enough to the extra money.

Eh, it's food, it's nutritious. I'm cool. Maybe they get less with their money, but if no one's starving, then it's no biggie.

No- Poor people should not have organic food nor junk food. They should not have anything nice or good. It's punishment for being poor.
I'm being cynical.....due to other BS threads today. Organic does not have to be expensive. We agreed to switch to organic 4 months ago without much of a change in our food budget. HOW??? We plan weekly meals. This is allowed us to not purchase unnecessary foods. I was shocked at how much we have saved planning menus. So we end up spending the same amount each month. And we shop at Whole Foods.

Totally OT, but Momma Mia-- your siggie made me laugh!
Stay away from organic wine, though. IT sucks!

Irish alt-rockers Kodaline pen "A Song for Minneapolis," get our attention
"The one and only Prince described it well with Purple Rain/ Where Bob Dylan spent his days before he caught the New York Train."
If you haven't gotten your band written about in the Twin Cities, one semi-surefire approach is to pen a fawning song about us. (And then have your publicist send out emails emblazoned "KODALINE WRITES A SONG ABOUT MINNEAPOLIS!! THE BAND CHALLENGED THEMSELVES TO WRITE A SONG FOR EVERY CITY THEY PLAY IN!") That was the approach that Irish band Kodaline decided to take, anyhow. The band is out on the road with the Airborne Toxic Event, and they're taking a page out of mid-aughts Sufjan Stevens' playbook and writing a whole bunch of songs about cities. The inspiration? Their tour routing.
So, here's the first one, the seemingly earnest "A Song for Minneapolis," as filmed in a truck stop selling body-slimming cream. Unfortunately, Kodaline was here on Tuesday, so there's no hope of going out to see them play this locally for a while. Knowing the Twin Cities' proclivity for local pride that occasionally borders on navel-gaze, this Mumfy-esque and acoustic approach could help this band gain some traction here eventually. See Also: Top 20 best Minnesota songs: The complete list
A couple lyrical notes: We cringed a little at the "women fell from heaven" line, and what exactly does gambling in the dark have to do with cold weather? But the effort is appreciated, Kodaline.
Bridges in the sky, like heaven's walkways in the clouds, Keep you safe and warm from all the snow that's coming down The one and only Prince described it well with Purple Rain Where Bob Dylan spent his days before he caught the New York Train.
Divided by a river, Separated by a stream United by a passion yeah they share a baseball team The weather is just crazy its like gambling in the dark I've yet to see Saint Paul but I'm in Minneapolis
We're in Minneapolis Minneapolis Minneapolis
In the pretty city, Built in 1887 The people are delightful and the women fell from heaven I must thank the Airborne guys oh yeah for having us I hope we come back soon, yeah back to Minneapolis
Back to Minneapolis Back to Minneapolis Back to Minneapolis I hope we come back soon Yeah back to Minneapolis
Minneapolis I'd really love to get to know you well Or take you out at to dinner in some fancy posh hotel But right now yeah this song is all that we, we can afford I'm sure we'll meet again, I'm yours Minneapolis im yours.

http:www.istockanalyst.comMNST – Job search and recruitment website Monster.com, long a squeaky cog on the buyout rumor wheel, appears to have jump-started the rumor circle again following news of an alliance with iHispano, a website for Hispanic and bilingual professionals. As shares in Monster.com staged an impressive 5% advance in afternoon trading to $27.11, its implied volatility surged 20% to 70%, making it one of the day's top implied volatility gainers. Option activity gathered pace to more than 8 times the normal level, with heavy buying in March and April calls at the out-of-the-money 30 and 35 strikes. Volume in the April calls was more than double the open interest, as traders gleefully paid 200% higher premiums to lock in share price upside in Monster.com – a share that has traded as high as $50.28 over the past 52 weeks.

http:www.istockanalyst.comNTAP – Options in Network Appliance, the maker of
network data storage and information management systems, have been all
over the map in recent weeks – witness the events of last Monday, when
vague analyst chatter sent overall option volume to 4 times the normal
level as traders piled into April 22.50 calls. In the ensuing week, its
implied volatility has lurched higher by one-third, and now reads 54%.
Today, with shares posting a modest 2% gain to $22.99, traders once
again bought heavily into April 22.50 calls at $1.85, combining them
with the sale of calls one strike higher at the 25 mark for $0.85. It
also appears that volatility plays are in favor in the June contract
between strikes 20 and 22.50 – a buyer of this position pays a $4.15
premium (18% of the current share price) in the expectation of a move
to the upside past $26.65 or to the downside below $15.85. A seller of
this position would take in the premium in anticipation of very
rangebound activity between those strike prices, essentially calling
the market's bluff given the very amorphousness of the recent share
price appreciation.

http:www.istockanalyst.comHLS – Options in HealthSouth Corp
posted 9 times the normal level of volume today on back of a 1% decline
in its share price to $15.91. Shares in HealthSouth, which provides
inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation services and long-term acute
care nationwide, have given up 25% of their value for the year to date,
and it looks like option traders aren't looking for any rehabilitation

These paintings by Judith Eisler are representations of film stills where real life abstractions, resulting from technological interference, take on a life of their own. The images create a loss of clarity while still allowing figurative aspects of the subjects to be derived by the viewer.

Green Guide to Government Policy
A three-point plan for better buildings and communities: Our call to government
Thu 16 Apr, 2015 Advocacy
The GBCA is engaging with all political parties and calling on them to commit to better buildings, communities and cities.
We are focusing on three priorities that will place Australia on a clear, long-term pathway to a healthier, more productive, more resilient and more sustainable built environment.
We've developed a three-point plan that outlines these three priorities and what we are seeking from all levels of government:
1. Certify new and existing buildings with Green Star
2. Encourage industry to go beyond standard practice for new and retrofit projects and improve existing building performance
3. Create better communities across the country.
Download: A three-point plan for better buildings and communities: Our call to government (PDF 1.39MB)
While we are calling on all political parties to outline their policies to deliver better buildings, communities and cities, we recognise that there must be a coordinated approach from all levels of government, industry and the community if we are to achieve the best outcomes.
A three-point plan for better buildings and communities: Our call to government not only outlines what we are asking of federal government, but details the commitment and action we are seeking from
- state government
- local government
- the community
- builders, developers and owners
- industry associations.
Just as importantly, the plan also includes the ways in which the GBCA is committed to supporting government, and all other stakeholders, as we work together to transform the built environment.
Australia's future economic productivity, liveability and sustainability depend on getting it right with our buildings, our communities and our cities. A long-term commitment to policies and programs that drive sustainability in the built environment is essential.

I'm often asked how the gift tax rules and the estate tax rules relate to one another. Gift and estate taxes are known as "transfer" taxes, based upon the value of assets being transferred from one person to another.
The federal tax system entitles each of us to a $5.43 million lifetime exemption from gift and estate taxes. This exemption can be consumed during your lifetime, and any unused exemption may be applied at your death. So assume that I own a commercial office building worth $5 million and transfer that office building to a family partnership owned by my three daughters. I have consumed $5 million of my lifetime exemption against gift and estate taxes, leaving me with only $430,000 of exemption to be applied at the time of my death. If, at the time of my death, my will bequeathed another $2 million of assets to my three daughters, then an estate tax would be due from my estate since I have made total transfers of $7 million against my lifetime exemption of $5.43 million.
The estate tax is paid before the additional transfers are made, so my daughters would receive a net inheritance after the tax is calculated and paid. The federal estate tax return actually "adds back" prior taxable gifts to compute the amount of gross estate tax owed. The net estate tax equals the tax on the taxable estate (lifetime taxable gifts plus gross estate value at death) less the total amount of exemption available at the time of the death.
You may have noticed that I referred to "taxable gifts." Certain gift transfers that are made during your lifetime do not reduce the gift/estate tax exemption available to you. The first is an "annual exclusion" gift. You may gift up to $14,000 annually to anyone that you want, and not have that gift counted towards your lifetime exemption. You may also gift unlimited amounts for someone's health or education, provided that you make the gift directly to the medical care provider, or the educational institution respectively.
My daughter Gabrielle attends Brandeis University. I can gift Gabi $14,000 annually (as can my wife) so she can receive gift tax free transfers from both of us in the amount of $28,000 without anyone having to report the gift on a Federal Gift Tax Return Form 709. Even if the entire $28,000 was paid from my personal checking account, so long as Patti and I timely file a Federal Gift Tax Return where we elect to "split the gift," no part of the gift will be deemed taxable, meaning that we will not reduce our federal estate and gift tax exemptions. These annual exclusion gifts must be "present interest" gifts, meaning that they have to be currently available to the recipient rather than being restricted in any way, such as contributed to a trust that the recipient has no access to.
In addition to the annual exclusion gifts to Gabi, my wife and I can also pay Gabi's tuition at Brandeis, so long as we write the check directly to the University. I can also pay Gabi's health insurance premiums, doctor bills and prescriptions, so long as I don't give her the money to pay those expenses and I pay them directly myself. None of those gifts should reduce our lifetime exemption.
Spouses can transfer unlimited amounts between themselves, both during their lifetimes and at their deaths and not incur any transfer taxes, so long as both are United States citizens. Bill Gates can transfer his entire fortune to Melinda without incurring any transfer taxes.
You can probably determine that it's important for your estate tax attorney to both know, and have copies of, any taxable lifetime transfers. This can be readily accomplished by providing your estate attorney copies of all prior Federal Gift Tax Return Form 709s filed with the IRS. Without this information, your attorney may assume that you have not made any lifetime transfers, and the estate plan recommended for you might not be proper.
Further, if you have made lifetime transfers that haven't been reported, you should meet with your attorney and/or CPA to discuss filing a late return. When one files a Federal Gift Tax Return, the IRS generally has three years in which to challenge the return. When transfers are made of hard to value assets like real estate or business interests, the IRS isn't shy about challenging the value and assessing back taxes, interest and penalties. Failure to file a return opens the door at the donor's death for the IRS to go back in time and make assessments.
It's always a good idea to discuss these issues with your tax professionals.

This Sunday, the 18th, head over to Tigertail in Ballard (704 N.W. 65th St.) for the first of what the bar's Carl Carlson hopes to be many Iron Bartender competitions. The first bout pits Mike McSorley (formerly of Marjorie) against Dallas Taylor of Tost.
I know the secret ingredient...pretty tough one...so it'll be cool to watch the boys think on their feet and come up with something new. The other portion of the competition will test the bartenders' speed and accuracy in the well, timing them on a list of drinks all while servers shout demands and requests. Heckling is highly encouraged, or should be. Isn't banter a skill, afterall?
Local comedian Owen Straw and Max from The Sunset will MC. More competitions will follow at Tigertail and possibly other bars around the city.
Contest starts at 7:00pm.

The strange saga of the UFC's attempts to lure Nick Diaz back to the ring continues.
UFC president Dana White said at the weekend he had offered Diaz a fight but that his management had refused it. Diaz countered by telling Fighters Only yesterday that he doesn't have a manager at present and that no fight has been offered to him.
Today he has offered more details on the current situation. For most of his career, Cesar Gracie served as his trainer-manager. That is no longer the case. Gracie remains on the scene in a coaching capacity but Diaz doesn't have a representative.
"I've not had a manager since my last fight. I would like people to know that I was never offered any fight [recently]. I haven't had a manager, I told Dana that I didn't want anyone representing me after what happened with my last training camp," he tells Fighters Only.
That "last training camp" was for his welterweight title shot against Georges St. Pierre. At the time, there were plenty of rumors that all was not well in Camp Diaz and that there was a strain in his relationship with Gracie because of that.
"I didn't get a good camp in at all. I was doing it all by myself really, with a few of my old training partners like Gil Castillo, Val Ignatov my Sambo coach, plus a few of my students and my brother. A lot of money was supposed to be spent on that camp but it didn't happen," he says.
"Then when the same thing happened with my brother, that's when I threw the towel in with Cesar as far as management is concerned. Its one thing it happening to me but when it happened to my brother I take it more personal. So that's really why I haven't had a plan for a new fight.
"I feel really dumb right now, if I had known better I could have acted and trained accordingly. No money went into that training camp except me taking care of sparring partners out of my own pocket, and whatever I spent on gas getting to training.
"Cesar used to set up really good training but lately he pretty much stopped teaching and training, he has brought in new guys from Brazil to do the training and that has changed things at the gym.
"He is a really good jiu jitsu teacher but I think once he brought these guys in to do the teaching, that is when things changed with my camps. I didn't take any offense until my brother last that last fight.
"I will always be a Cesar Gracie black belt and a Gracie fighter, that will never change. Things started with Cesar, and I am with the same team and the same people. But I do need something new.
"I think I will always have my main training partners that I need, and there's a lot more gyms these days that would love to have us train there. Its just a case of getting it coordinated. I like training at Gil's place, or CSA and Lodi. Plus a lot of boxing gyms.
"Some of my old-school Jiu Jitsu guys opened a place too because they weren't into how the new Brazilians were doing it at Cesar's, treating brown belts and purple belts the same as white belts.
"I think that really limits people. I know their game and I know they're not better than me. If anything they are limited themselves.
"With Cesar I think we felt like we had a good head coach but now I think really we just had a good jiu jitsu coach [albeit] maybe the best jiu jitsu coach in the world. I give him credit for that and for putting me in fights when I was 17. I think he knew I would be a gold mine, I am glad he took an interest."
Diaz's retirement, announced after the loss to St Pierre, may not be as concrete as was once thought. Though if he is to return, he wants the paydays to be worth it. "If I do fight again I want a lot more money. I'm living in this ghetto ass apartment because I haven't been making the money that I should have been making."
"Everything around that last fight was wrong. GSP didn't make weight for that fight, he didn't. And who knows by how much, really? Then after the weigh-ins I had an IV, to get fluids back. The guy had just done Georges and he did mine, I felt really weird after it. Something wasn't right about it.
"Between that and Georges not making weight and all the media pressure I had a lot on my mind. I've never felt worse for any fight in my life. I would say I was like 80% at best."
For the time being he remains retired, but Diaz is surely only the right negotiation away from stepping back in. He has already expressed a willingness to play the PR game and now, in his veteran years, he is finally starting to realize the kind of money he could have made had his camps looked more like St. Pierre's.
"Things change, people change. I don't have anything against Cesar but I see the big picture now. Right now what I need is a good fight and a good camp," Diaz says.
He maintains that no opponent has been offered to him yet, while Dana White is under the impression that he has been dealing with "Diaz's manager". According to today's comments, the UFC might get better results if they approach Diaz directly.
Diaz has recently started thinking more and more about the business side of MMA. He reveals his thoughts on that side of the industry in an in-depth interview in the next UK issue of Fighters Only, which drops at all good magazine stockists on November 28.

The first pitch of this thing is truly a gem. Funky, engaging corner climbing delivers you to a devious and tricky-to-protect crux that gives way to sheer 5.10 chicken head glory. The crux may be very difficult for those under ~5.10"...you may have to dyno? The second pitch is a head game with a pretty cool crux section.
The first pitch anchors have been updated to fat 1/2" SS bolts and hangers with links+rings. Thank you ASCA!. The old 1/4" bolts broke under frighteningly little force. Thanks to Greg Kay for the long hours he spent up there helping out and hauling heavy crap, and to Geir Hundal for loaning equipment, this classic climb is now ready to rock. And deserves to be climbed, at least the 1st pitch--it's excellent climbing and completely safe--go do it!
The second pitch is verging very close to R territory. Ok, I'm gonna say R. Don't fall. The lone 1/4" bolt protecting the crux on this pitch has also been updated to 1/2"SS (it also broke quite easily while I was trying to pull it). There's 3"-5" pro to be had in a small left-facing corner above the bolt, but it is in questionable rock. Instead of building an anchor in this crappy corner, you might just want to run it out way up and left to Disappointment Corner. You'll find good anchor pro up there.
The final pitch is very run-out 5.8 climbing. By that I mean, after searching far and wide for a long time, I found just one laughably poor piece in ~70'. It's easy climbing, though. Either join Disappointment Corner, or cast off into the blank unknown in the hopes you'll find Helm's Deep's anchors or some other place to build an anchor...
Rack: singles 00-0 BD cams, doubles from 0.3 BD-#3 BD cams, + a #4 if you're going to the top; stoppers; RPs/brass nuts/offsets very helpful.

text: Venkatesh, Akshay The work of Einsiedler, Katok and Lindenstrauss on the Littlewood conjecture. (English) Zbl 1194.11075 Bull. Am. Math. Soc., New Ser. 45, No. 1, 117-134 (2008). This document is a brief report on the work of {\it M. Einsiedler, A. Katok} and {\it E. Lindenstrauss} on the Littlewood conjecture [Ann. Math. (2) 164, No. 2, 513--560 (2006; Zbl 1109.22004)]. For $x\in\Bbb R$, let $\Vert x\Vert$ denote the distance from $x$ to the nearest integer. The Littlewood conjecture asserts that $$\liminf_{n\ge 1}\,n\Vert n\alpha\Vert\ \Vert n\beta\Vert= 0,\tag i$$ whatever be $\alpha$, $\beta$. M. Einsiedler, A. Katok and E. Lindenstrauss have proved that the set of $\alpha$, $\beta$ for which (i) fails has Hausdorff dimension $0$. The aim of this article is to discuss and give some of the context around this result. This result is proved using ideas from dynamics: namely, by studying the action of coordinate dilations on the space of lattices in $\Bbb R^3$. These ideas build on the work of many e.g. Katok-Spatzier, Kalinin-Spatzier, Einsiedler-Katok and Lindenstrauss etc. The result is important because of the techniques and results in dynamics that enter into its proof. The following points have been stressed in this article: (i) Dynamics arises from a symmetry group and the historical context of this type of connections; (ii) dynamics that is needed is similar to the simultaneous actions of $x\to 2x$, $x\to 3x$ on $\Bbb R/\Bbb Z$; (iii) A sketch of idea to study the picture transeverse to the acting group.Reviewer: Ranjeet Sehmi (Chandigarh) MSC:11J13Simultaneous homogeneous approximation, linear forms37A35Entropy and other invariants, isomorphism, classification (ergodic theory)11H46Products of linear forms37A45Relations of ergodic theory with number theory and harmonic analysisKeywords:Littlewood conjecture; Oppenheim conjecture; coordinate dilations BibTeX Full Text: DOI

2006 Game Plan - Strategic Management System
The Army Strategic Management System (SMS) provides the senior Army leadership with an enterprise-wide strategic performance management system. It will translate the Army's strategy into actionable programs and initiatives. SMS provides the automated environment to assess performance and manage resource allocation for the attainment of our strategic objectives.
Senior leaders at each organizational level can use SMS to assess and manage their efforts in support of our strategy, as well as their own organization's performance. The one-page automated Strategy Map provides the framework to synchronize efforts and focus leaders on organizational performance.
The system, now in development, will:
- Provide leaders with a visual status (green/amber/red) of progress in achieving the objectives of The Army Plan;
- Enable senior leaders to assess and discuss performance through triannual reviews (the first review was held in May-June 2006);
- Measure data that, in almost all cases, we are already collecting (not a new report);
- Eliminate wasteful, redundant reports; and,
- Focus activity, improve performance, and reinforce accountability across our Army.
SMS provides an automated environment to:
- Delineate subordinate initiatives and their associated critical tasks that we must resource and measure in order to assess attainment of our strategic initiatives;
- Establish useful performance measures that enhance efficiency through continual process improvement;
- Respond to changing requirements by facilitating strategic performance reviews that enable reallocation of increasingly scarce resources and modification of cost, performance, or schedule objectives, if required; and,
- Leverage predictive technology to more accurately forecast the outcome of strategic decisions.
See the 2006 Game Plan for more information.
Army Safety-"Owning the Edge"
To help modern leaders and Soldiers make informed choices, the U.S. Army Combat Readiness Center developed a campaign called Own the Edge. This campaign, which is available at https://crc.army.mil/readiness, acknowledges the risks associated with our operations, helps individuals define which risks are acceptable and unacceptable, and promotes modifying our operations as necessary to manage those risks and "own the edge."

Wild Tuna, Orange and Parsley Salad: Paleo Lunches and Breakfasts on the Go
I originally saw this recipe in Bon Appétit magazine many years ago, and have made my own little tweaks over the years. This colorful and sophisticated salad raises canned tuna to another level. I could eat it daily and feel so great after having it for lunch. The wonderful thing about parsley is that it won't wilt after putting dressing on it. Parsley is also a great source of vitamin K, and the orange and red peppers are packed with vitamin C. This dish stays crunchy and delivers sweet and slightly salty flavors from the oranges and capers. It may seem funny to combine oranges and tuna, but once you try this, I guarantee you'll want to make it again.
Makes two lunch servings
2 5oz cans of wild tuna (I prefer the tuna packed in olive oil)
3 gloves of garlic, minced
1 red pepper, diced small
¼ red onion, diced small
2 red radishes, matchsticked
4 TBS capers, rinsed
2 oranges, peeled, sectioned and diced
1 large bunch of flat leaf parsley, chopped
2 TBS extra virgin olive oil
1 TBS red wine vinegar
Freshly grated black pepper to taste
Simply combine all of the ingredients in a bowl. Makes about one quart of salad. If packing for the office, you can take it as is. Just refrigerate until you're ready to have lunch.
What's your favorite lunch to pack for the office? Leave a comment:

Arabtec Slumps After Aabar Stake Boost Stems Rally: Dubai Mover
Arabtec Holding PJSC slumped the most in a year on investor speculation a rally was overdone and after data showed Aabar Investments PJSC raised its stake in the United Arab Emirates' biggest construction company.
Shares of Dubai-based Arabtec, up 104 percent so far this year, tumbled 7.1 percent, the most since March 2011, to 3.25 dirhams at the 2 p.m. close in the emirate. The company was the biggest decliner on Dubai's measure, which dropped 3.7 percent, the most in more than a year. It was the world's worst-performing index today, among 93 benchmarks tracked by Bloomberg.
Arabtec had rallied amid bets the company will benefit from regional infrastructure spending and secure contracts in Abu Dhabi, which said in January it plans to resume real-estate projects after reviewing their viability. Aabar, the Abu Dhabi government company which owns a stake in Daimler AG, increased its ownership to 5.28 percent, according to data posted on Dubai's stock exchange.
"We had a lot of rumors surrounding Arabtec, some of them were related to potential orders it could win from Abu Dhabi, and at the end of the day that wasn't the case," said Sebastien Henin, who helps oversee $100 million at The National Investor in Abu Dhabi. "We ended up with the usual suspect buying only five percent in the stock. Some investors were disappointed and started to book profits. We could see some more profit-taking because it's such a disappointment.'
Arabtec shares are trading at 33 times estimated earnings compared with 10 times for Dubai's benchmark. Six analysts recommend investors sell Arabtec shares, while nine have a hold rating on the stock, according to Bloomberg data. Two recommend investors buy the shares.
New Markets
The builder, whose board meets tomorrow to discuss financial results, may post a 57 percent drop in full-year profit to 133 million dirhams ($36 million), according to the average estimate of 12 analysts on Bloomberg.
Arabtec has been eying opportunities outside its home market after construction work slowed in Dubai. The company said in November the value of a contract it won in Saudi Arabia may rise to 1.5 billion riyals ($400 million).
A unit of Arabtec, a builder of the world's tallest tower in Dubai, in January won a 561 million-dirham contract for the Dubai International Airport's expansion. One of its units also won 256 million dirhams in contracts in Abu Dhabi this year.
Aabar offered in 2010 to buy 70 percent of Arabtec through the purchase of bonds that would be exchanged for shares for 2.3 dirhams each. After the deal fell through, Arabtec and Aabar said they planned a ''strategic partnership" instead. Arabtec Chief Financial Officer Ziad Makhzoumi couldn't be reached for comment.

Can someone point towards (or show) some good general floating point comparison functions in C# for comparing floating point values? I want to implement functions for IsEqual, IsGreater an IsLess. I also only really care about doubles not floats.
EDIT: I removed the original code since it was complete junk. See the accepted answer.
