i've realized that recently i give 0 percent of a shit about current events.
You can live your life perfectly fine without them. It's very rarely that they actually effect people (especially us because nobody cares about Ireland).
i stopped reading newspapers and going to news sites quite a while ago. im only hear about events through irl conversations, forums or a couple of other sites i visit.
I don't give two shits about current events, they really don't interest me in the slightest although I follow a few stories that actually interest me closely like the AV referendum and the England and Wales local elections but other than that it's just sleaze on the privy lives of men
Aww... you kids are growing up!
I have a few sources I follow to keep up on things, especially in emerging technology.
"A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects." - Time Enough For Love, by Robert Heinlein

I thought there would be (more or less) a slew of posts about the whole Libya thing. Boy, aren't I red in the face
i think the thing is i feel i know enough about things that i can more or less tell if what something someone says about current events is bullshit or not just by knowing what sort of philosophy the statement/opinion invokes and how that philosophy has borne out in the past etc, without needing to talk to/listen to/read stuff by a bunch of bildungphilisters
still i am negligent in my following of things. i have really very little idea whats going on in the world right now.
you fuckin' clod god i'm drunk

GENERIC NAME: tadalafil
BRAND NAME: Adcirca, Cialis
DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Tadalafil is an oral drug that is used for treating impotence (the inability to attain or maintain a penile erection) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). It is in a class of drugs called phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) inhibitors that also includes sildenafil (Viagra) and vardenafil (Levitra). Erection of the penis is caused by the filling of the penis with blood. Filling occurs because the blood vessels that bring blood to the penis increase in size and deliver more blood to the penis, and, at the same time, the blood vessels that take blood away from the penis decrease in size and remove less blood from the penis. Sexual stimulation that leads to an erection causes the production and release of nitric oxide in the penis. The nitric oxide causes an enzyme, guanylate cyclase, to produce cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP). It is cGMP that is primarily responsible for increasing and decreasing the size of blood vessels carrying blood to and from the penis, respectively, and causing an erection. When the cGMP is destroyed by another enzyme, phosphodiesterase-5, the blood vessels return to their normal size, blood leaves the penis, and the erection ends. Tadalafil prevents phosphodiesterase-5 from destroying cGMP so that cGMP stays around longer. The persistence of cGMP leads to a more prolonged engorgement of the penis with blood.

Commissioners to talk about Alcoa and CDBG grant
Published: Friday, January 18, 2013 at 4:44 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, January 18, 2013 at 4:44 p.m.
Davidson County commissioners will discuss aspects of the Alcoa relicensing issue when they meet at 7 p.m. Tuesday at the Davidson County Governmental Center in Lexington.
Commissioner Todd Yates is scheduled to present information involving the company during an agenda item near the end of the meeting.
Alcoa is seeking a new 50-year license to manage the Yadkin River Project, which spans from High Rock Lake down to Falls Dam near Albemarle, from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. That application is on hold, pending Alcoa receiving the water quality certificate from the state. It initially received the certificate in May 2009, but it was later revoked in December 2010, after the state Division of Water Quality, part of the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources, said the company submitted inaccurate data.
Alcoa appealed the revocation in 2011, but the company asked the court in August 2012 to dismiss its case "without prejudice." An administrative law judge granted Alcoa's motion to dismiss one month later, and the company filed a new application shortly after that.
Stanly County and Yadkin Riverkeeper contested Alcoa's 401 water quality certification in 2009.
Commissioners will also receive an update on a Community Development Block Grant sewer project on Astran Drive from Davidson County Manager Robert Hyatt.

|Started raining pretty hard as I was getting in to Paradise Valley. The road up to Hinkey Summit was really good however despite the heavy rainfall. I had driven a long way from SL so I was determined to get this one despite the crumby conditions. Rained most of the way up but did stop right before I got to the top. No views but still good hike.

|After doing Stevenson BM (OR) in the early morning, I ventured a relatively short distance to the south for Granite Peak. It is a desolate CoHP and I did not imagine myself venturing back to that particular region of northern Nevada anytime soon (or even wanting to). Despite seemingly good weather, I got chased (freaked) off the summit by one lone thundercloud; that summit seemed like a lightning rod waiting to happen.

|Hiked in from the fence line along the 4wd road. Nice and easy use trails made for a quick 2 hour hike. Nice area but the views were lacking due to haze. The road to Hinkey Summit is in good shape. I hit Chocolate Mtn afterwards which was not worth the effort (too much bush whacking).

|A relatively straightforward route to the summit. We parked at the meadow near the weather station, as the road became too wet and marshy to continue. It took us less than an hour and a half to reach the summit from there. The register book was soaked, though it hadn't rained in some time.

|My first Nevada summit. I drove until I was blocked by snow(8200 ft), and camped the night before. I took my time and summited in a little under 2 hours. A pretty neat summit of pink granite. I thought 3 bench marks was a little excessive though. This is a really neat area once you get out of the valley where the highway goes. Lots of wildflowers! I had to share the summit with a lot of bugs I had never encountered before. There were millions of them the whole way up and back. Thankfully they didn't bite like the bugs on Warner Mountain the day before.

|Took a quick hike with my old desert-peak-bagging buddy, Stan Wilkinson. We drove my Subaru a little past Hinkey Summit, and got to the peak in an hour or something like that. Staying on the very crest for the last quarter-mile keeps the boredom away. We even managed to not get shot by all the car hunters.

|rfbolton and myself had wanted to climb this peak since it was a county highpoint. We had just completed three other county highpoints, two in Oregon and one in Idaho and felt that Granite Peak would be a fun climb to do.
It did turn out to be fun. The area was extremely interesting and we did a loop drive, driving in from the north and exiting out though the south after climbing the peak. Cattle are everywhere in this area and we were somewhat amused when we found out that this treeless expanse was in the Humboldt national forest. I always thought that a forest meant trees but that was not the case here. Bob's Toyota 4runner made short work of the road and we were able to park at the end of the road. The peak itself was nothing but a scramble and Bob was up it in about 40 minutes. Great viewpoint however and on a clear day we might have been able to see forever.

Speaking Out in Washington
CFGI members recently hit Capitol Hill to advocate for employment-based immigration reform. We also published a full-page ad in Roll Call to help bring the message home.
Employer Solutions
To build the economy of the future, the United States must create the best, most competitive workforce. To do this, U.S. employers need an immigration system that works for them, not against them.
The Council for Global Immigration and the Society for Human Resource Management – who collectively represent U.S. employers and HR and legal professionals who navigate the immigration system every day – advocate meaningful, practicable reforms for U.S. employers that include:
Worksite Enforcement
U.S. Employers Need … Certainty in Hiring
U.S. employers need certainty in hiring through a single, federal, entirely electronic verification system that protects against identity theft.
Learn more.
Trusted Employer
U.S. Employers Need … Increased System Efficiency
U.S. employers need an efficient U.S. immigration system that does not stunt growth because of cumbersome paperwork. A "Trusted Employer" system would create such efficiencies.
Learn more.
Future Highly Skilled Workforce
U.S. Employers Need … A Reliable Flow of Highly Educated and Skilled Talent
U.S. employers need top talent to grow the economy, but they currently face a skills gap. Specifically, they need an employment-based immigration system that welcomes highly educated and highly skilled professionals by clearing backlogs, improving future access to green cards and temporary visas such as H-1B and L-1 visas, reinstating domestic visa revalidation and expanding spouse and partner work authorization.

Rock and roll has been part of Cleveland's fabric from its beginnings in the 1950s through the opening of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum in 1995 and up to today, with Kid Cudi rocking the iPod, and Ante Up Studios recording the groove of the future.
Cleveland has always loved rock and roll, and its role in rock is a critical one. The Ohio city helped lay rock's foundation at Record Rendezvous on Prospect Avenue near Cleveland's Public Square.
Picture this downtown record store packed with teens eager to shell out their money for the latest tunes. The listening booths are jammed, and the music is loud and sweaty. It bugs parents. The kids love it. The music's got a beat, and while the style still lacks a name, this blend of rhythm & blues, country music and the blues is starting to coalesce as rock and roll.
Rock came together in American urban centers like Cleveland after World War II. Cleveland was prospering from the steel and automobile industries, its labor force swelled by people who moved from the South in search of a better life, their taste for "race" music and hillbilly music in tow.
The term "rock and roll" was mainstreamed by Record Rendezvous owner Leo Mintz and WJW-AM deejay Alan Freed. It became a brushfire when deejay Bill Randle squired Elvis Presley into some of his first shows north of the Mason Dixon Line—in Cleveland. It established what would become the baby-boomer soundtrack in the Sixties over legendary Cleveland AM stations WIXY, WHK, WERE and WJW. It became big business in the Seventies and Eighties, when Cleveland brothers Jules and Mike Belkin mounted extravaganzas like the World Series of Rock at the Municipal Stadium.
In the beginning, however, it was small-scale, its leader Freed. Hungry to capitalize on an emerging market, he played so-called race music – or rhythm & blues -- exclusively on the Moondog House Rock and Roll Party, which he launched in 1951 over WJW. Mintz was the key sponsor of the show. On March 21, 1952, the two staged the Moondog Coronation Ball, selling more than 16,000 tickets to the Cleveland Arena, which could accommodate only 10,000. Tickets cost $1.50 in advance, $1.75 at the door. The first rock and roll concert was bedlam—and put Cleveland on the rock and roll map. Four days later, rock critic-to-be Jane Scott joined the Plain Dealer, the city's morning newspaper. Scott would become known as the oldest living teenager and would cover rock and roll for five decades.
The Moondog Ball wasn't the only thing to make Cleveland synonymous with rock from the start. Freed had stiff competition from such deejays as Bill Randle and Tommy Edwards of WERE. Edwards brought a twitchy kid named Presley up from Memphis to the Circle Theater in February 1955, and Randle brought him to Cleveland's suburban Brooklyn High School that October.
Other signs of those early times:
In the 1960s, where bands played became as important as radio stations and record stores. Armories, clubs, high schools, record hops—the music was everywhere.
Cleveland became a mandatory stop as rock evolved beyond rockabilly, blues and rhythm & blues. (Which rock group first said "Hello, Cleveland" is lost to memory.) Stan Kain opened La Cave near Case Western Reserve University in 1962. During its seven years, the basement club featured everyone from the Velvet Underground to Jose Feliciano to Terry Knight and the Pack (which evolved into Grand Funk Railroad).
On September 15, 1964, the Beatles played Public Hall, creating such frenzy that Mayor Ralph Locher banned them. The ban did not last. When the group played Municipal Stadium in summer 1966, it drew only 25,000, largely because John Lennon had claimed the Beatles were bigger than Jesus.
On February 5, 1966, Mike and Jules Belkin formed Belkin Productions. That same year, the Cleveland band the Outsiders reached Number Five on the charts with "Time Won't Let Me," and Henry LoConti launched the Agora, a collection of clubs that would showcase every major act from the Sixties on, from ZZ Top to U2. Music Hall and Public Auditorium hosted acts like the Rolling Stones and the Who.
Leo's Casino on Cleveland's East Side became the place for Motown acts to road test their material in the Sixties. It also was the site of Otis Redding's last performance, on December 9, 1967. He taped the local TV rock showcase, Upbeat, earlier that evening.
In the late Sixties, AM lost ground to FM, and underground radio emerged. WHK 100.7-FM went free-form and rapidly evolved into WMMS, giving deejays Kid Leo, David Spero, Billy Bass and Denny Sanders their head. WMMS would play a national role in rock well into the Nineties.
In the Sixties, Cleveland spawned numerous major artists. Not only did the James Gang, the Raspberries and the Glass Harp form here, so did Pere Ubu, the Numbers Band (from Kent) and Akron's Tin Huey and the Bizarros, groups that were "alternative" long before that became the tag du jour. Northern Ohio became a rock region, though it never acquired the cachet of San Francisco or Boston, which had its short-lived "Bosstown Sound." This also was the decade in which Michael Stanley began to build his reputation as Cleveland's favorite rock son.
Other proof of Cleveland's rock and roll clout:
High in today's mix, mixing and mix tapes: Ante Up Audio, a state-of-the-art recording studio formed in 2004 in Tyler Village, a mixed-use development on East 36th Street between Superior and St. Clair Avenues, and Exit Stencil Studios, launched in 2008 in the Waterloo Arts District that the Beachland dominates. Another new addition is Gotta Groove Records, a vinyl-record pressing plant located near Ante Up.
That should set the stage for this history of Cleveland rock. Next, this site will detail the Fifties, when Cleveland was a boomtown, and rock and roll was a baby.
Cleveland writer Carlo Wolff has been a music critic since the 1970s and is the author of Cleveland Rock & Roll Memories (Gray & Co.).

Who Wants One?
Latest News
Who Wants One?Posted byMay 11, 2011Filed under:1672
Go to sleep. Your lyrics are very well spoken for. I'm happy the way LASERS came out, Can't wait for the next album, Hopefully it won't be as stressful on you as lasers has been. Thanks for the great music brother,
I think its IMPOSSIBLE to just pick one favorite song, so I'm gonna have give a quick breakdown on my top 5 :) BMF: I love the switch up into POSITIVE lyrics, shining some light on people like Malcolm X and Martin Luther, verses Big Meech and Larry Hoover. And the idea of "building minds faster" is just beautiful. Words I Never Said: Who doesn't love and respect a song that speaks nothing but the truth?! (You want the realness? Well, I gotcha!) Go To Sleep: (#1 on my itunes with almost 800 plays!) :D CRAZY wordplay and metaphors! It seems like I catch something new every time I listen to this song. This is an eargasmic song at its greatest. Put You On Game: The lyrics and the way Lupe dictates the words is incredible. His style of rapping is so unique, unlike anything I've ever heard before. This song has a flow thats on a whole 'nother level of UNTOUCHABLE. Beautiful Lasers: Lyrics that cut so deep, its been a LONG time since I've had a song that touches my soul the way that this one does. I love to see the positivity and bright energy that came from such a dark and negative time. Remember, love always shines :)
iight my favourite LUP track is... i have no idea!!!!! this guy has been my favourite rapper for the majority of my grown man life, and has given me the drive to be a different person and not be afraid to do so! Whats funny is I really love "free chilly "(Gemini version wit Sarah Green) cuz Im always dying to hear him rapping over that! maybe its his popular demand off of "Enemy Of the State" because he just rode the beat so well, and the lyricism was nuts!! Or it could be "Dumb it Down" because he dared to tell everybody "hell no! im not gonna conform to your wack party all day raps and imma show you why im the best in the world" But one track that has a lot of history with me has got to be "The cool" that song used to scare the hell out of me!!! but it also showed me what this guy can do with his words, I love musical stories, and Lupe is perfect for that. "On the watch that had stopped 6 months after the shots that had got him in the box wringing Henny out his socks" My favourite line in that track, which showed that every word in that track has a significant meaning! HONESTLY LUPE HELPED ME GET 80s IN ACADEMIC ENGLISH!! sooooooo imma say The cool is my favourite track.
i gotta go with "heat under the babyseat" the flow is so raw and the stories he tells about each kid seem like they could be anyone. I also am a gorrilaz fan, And a huge fan of the song little weapon so that makes me love this song even more. i just wish it was like 3 times as long HAHAAHAHA
My favorite song is Put you on Game which is off my all time favorite album Lupe Fiasco's the Cool. It is amazing how Lupe portrays how the "hood" works without using any profane language but still achieving the desired dark and gloomy effect.
From the album Lasers I would say my favorite song is Words I Never Said because of the way Lupe broadcasted the truth and versed things plenty of people will not say because of plain fear of what others think. This taught me to say what I feel no matter what others around me think, because one day I'll regret the words I never said.
My favorite Lupe song is City Wings. His flow is dope, his lyrics are dope, and when he raps in Japanese its DOPE! You're the man Lu, keep doing what you're doing.
Words I Never Said ---> ITS TOO DEEP! and Lupe does what no other artists would do, talk bad about the goverment and about the truth about america.
In 2010, Porter J. Goss, former Director of Central Intelligence under Bush came to my city as a guest speaker in Naples, Florida to talk to Collier County Public Schools. I asked him about topics relating what "Words I Never Said" contained. Of course he gave me bullshit answers trying to go around my questions. I told him he was fake. So my favorite song is "Words I Never Said." When Lupe's last verse came I felt really good inside, because if we don't have the courage to speak up then we might as well wear masks depicted in his music video.
My favorite song has got to be Words I Never Said. I've listened to and followed lupe throughout his whole career knowing him to be a man with powerful political ideologies bottled up just barely leaking into his earlier tracks and ready to explode. And he finally did get to say the words he never said prior to lasers. Although I disagree with much of what he says I agree with the universal right to voice opinion and the notion that people are half awake while the world races around us.
Favourite song is Go To Sleep because its got a badass beat and Lu doing his thing on it, gets me pumped everytime.
paris tokyo!!! because i used to sing the chorus to my son when he was a tiny baby to put him to sleep...now that he is 2 he still sways to the song!
"Gotta Eat" because any song that can compare the drug cartel to fast food deserves to be my favorite song. Just completely legit.
"Joaquin Phoenix" its supposedly Travis Barker feat. Lupe Fiasco but who cares. Lupe goes hard on that song; "Killing is a dirty job, Michael Myers, Michael Rowe, bring it back like Michael Fox and see how far them Michaels go" is my favorite line. :)
"words I never said" because it sends out a powerful, and positive message to the youth of today, He's telling us to use your voice and fight for a cause, be the change you wanna see in this life. It's very inspiring
My favorite Lupe song is Coulda Been ! I love all his unknown music... and I especially like this song because it is very deep and meaningful. He lets the listener know that everyone has a role in life, no matter who you are, or where you are... you are doing something that reflects the type of person that you are.
FAVOURITE SONG? JUST ONE?!!!!!!!? OUCH "Hurt Me Soul" because this song captures the overall mislead plight of mindkind whilst detailing current issues/ills that faced society at the time. STSO LUPE!!! ...ALL THE WORLDS ILLS, SITTIN ON 24 INCH WHEELS
My favorite song is Sunshine. It reminds me of the time when I was in love with a girl when I was about 9 years old. One day, our teacher told us to practice writing to others by giving each person in the class a sentence or two. So I wrote to her, "The moon is gray, the sun is bright, you are my moonlight and you are my sunshine." After 2 years or so, I found out about Lupe Fiasco because one of my friends started calling me Lupe or Lu due to my last name being Lu. He told me about him and how he was very different than the songs people hear on the radio. That's about the same time I stopped listening to the hiphop radio stations. After a few weeks listening to his album The Cool, I was anxious to hear more, so I came to his first album, Food and Liquor. After a few more weeks, I noticed something familiar about the song in the album called "Sunshine." Then I remembered my little poem I wrote to a girl a long time ago. So that's the day that it became my favorite song.
cant chose 1 but currently "Streets on fire" has been on replay quite a bit XD its that indescribable feeling u get from listening to a song that touches your mind and soul.
Words I Never Said because its about the problems that the world is facing. Great hook too and Skylar is awesome!
"He Say She Say" because that song is so real. Lupe is the best when it comes to rapping about things that are actually meaningful.
Favorite song? Definitely "Words I Never Said" because it definitely speaks the truth--it has no boundaries or limitations to the lyrical content and is definitely on another level compared to other songs that are currently dominating the top 100 on iTunes.
Hurt me soul is my favorite because it sends a powerful message on everything that is wrong in the world.
"SLR" may be my favorite because it's 6+ minutes of the sickest rapping I've ever heard, and it's almost like a "Dumb it Down" Version 2.0. F&L 2 is going to be dope!
There are soooo many songs worthy of being favorites but if I have to pick one it is Words I never Said! It's a totally different concept than The Cool and F&L which I both loved but this song is so intelligent and shows that hip-hop is not totally consumed by sex and drugs. Lupe really shows how smart he is and the third verse on this track is extremely inspiring to me. It really gives me the confidence I need to get my voice out there with no fear of being judged. Plus the video for this song is way to sick!
The Cool is definitely my favorite. It really showcases Lupe's incredible talent, the way in which he is able to tell a story via song, and a great, intriguing, and somewhat creepy story at that. There isn't another rapper alive that could do a song like that, and that's why it and Lupe are my favorite.
this is FORD TOUGHH but i'll go with the cool becuase its the song that got me hooked to lupe...but there are sooo many i mean come one the coolest, dumb it down, daydreamin, hip-hop saved my life, kick.push you get the point
"Words I Never Said," because I find the song very inspiring and powerful. It reminds me of a poem I wrote over a year ago regarding the current political turmoil and the war in the Middle East. I am against the whole bullshit Bush started and that Obama seems to be continuing, so I'm happy that a rapper discusses the faults of society. I admire Lupe Fiasco even more now because of that song.

Ugly Finish to Ugly Day
Stocks suffered their biggest drop of the year on Monday as fears about the Italian elections raised worries about country's future austerity measures.
The Dow finished down 216 points, or, 1.5%, to 13784, its lowest close since Jan. 23 Bank of AmericaCaterpillar and Alcoa led the blue chips lower as all but three of the Dow's 30 components finished in negative territory. It was the Dow's biggest one-day drop since Nov. 7, the day after President Barack Obama was re-elected.
The S&P 500 dropped 28 points, or 1.8%, to 1488. All 10 of its large-cap sectors declined. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Comp fell 45 points, or 1.4%, to 3116. Major stock indexes have finished lower every Monday this year.
The market's so-called fear gauge, the CBOE's VIX, rose 35% to 19.18, its biggest gain of the year and highest close in 2013.
For Italy, the picture forming is not filling investors with confidence that a new government will remain on the austerity track. Such a development could then lead to widening sovereign debt yields and another flare-up of the euro-zone debt saga.
The iShares MSCI Italy Capped Index Fund (EWI) fell 5.7% to 12.20 on heavy trading volume, after earlier rising as much as 4%.
A hung parliament could set the stage for another election in a few months.
"The most likely outcome is a new round of elections over the next few months," analysts at RBS wrote to clients. "This could see populist parties rise further, taking advantage of popular discontent and deteriorating economic conditions, as we have seen in the last few weeks."

text: It's safe to say there would be no such thing as rock and roll without its distinctive instrumentation. To put it another way, rock and roll as we know it could not exist without Leo Fender, inventor of the first solid-body electric guitar to be mass-produced: the Fender Broadcaster. Fender's instruments – which also include the Stratocaster, the Precision bass (the first electric bass) and some of the music world's most coveted amplifiers – revolutionized popular music in general and rock and roll in particular. Leo Fender was born on August 10, 1909, near Anaheim, California, not far from the ...full bio

Have you ever wondered:
♦ Why as a culture do we care about sports so much?
♦ How did intercollegiate sports become part of university life?
♦ How did women break barriers in playing sports and reporting on sports?
♦ Can statistics really help athletes and teams improve?
♦ How does sport benefit and harm our bodies?
If so, you'll want to be involved in this theme semester. Sports are a vital, fun, and often passionate part of culture in the U.S. and around the world generally, and on the University of Michigan campus specifically. Sports are often categorized as "extracurricular," but that description misses a lot of what happens at universities in relation to sport. This theme semester highlights the ways that sport intersects with issues we address across the university, from psychology to physics to literature to engineering, from race to gender to economics to medicine. Come understand your everyday experience with sport in new ways.

Nancy Langseth, Minot Since living part of the year in another state I have been reading The Minot Daily News online....
Maybe like you, JayBird, and several other posters here, I am past getting embarrassed.
Hmmm. Good or bad?

Poor JayBird is the one who can't keep characters or script excerpts straight.
If he only had a brain - Scarecrow
If he only had a heart - Tin Man
If he only had the "noive" - C. Lion
Here's the trip down memory lane for everyone, because JB doesn't remember...
When the Cowardly Lion first meets up with Dorothy, Scarecrow & Tin Man in the forest--the three had just been chanting "lions & tigers & bears, oh my"--he jokes around with the Tin Man by asking him "how long do you stay fresh in that can?"
Wow. If (somebody) only had a brain, indeed.

"Hey loco, the day you actually post your very own opinion on a topic will be the first day we will all see that you have your own brain."

I hate to say it JByrd, but our Democrat Party commenters are the ones that show tendencies of racism....I don't know how many times I saw a fellow liberal call a conservative Black a Uncle Tom. But then, JByrd, maybe that is one trait of our side I must strive for.....but probably not. Maybe I'll never become full fledged Democrat Party if that's the requirement.
But I MUST learn to call our Republican opponents racists....even though I don't see any. The means justifying the end....I feel I must work on that....

Where that the case then none of Benjamin Franklin's many letters to the editor, nor Poor Richards Almanac, nor the Federalist Papers, nor John Adams letters to the editor been printed.
Silence Dogood, Harry Meanwell, Alice Addertongue, Caelia Shortface, Martha Careful, Busy Body, Anthony Afterwit, Polly Baker, Benevolus, Richard Saunders, and Timothy Turnstone; aka Benjamin Franklin.
Publius; aka Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay.
Populus, An American, A Son of Liberty, and Vindex the Avenger; aka John Adams.
Many other founding fathers used pseudonyms when writing letters to the editor or opinion pieces.
History shows us the use of pseudonyms for opinion pieces and letters to the editor has been common practice in this country, long before the Revolutionary War.

Lor, you have GOT to be wrong, my friend JByrd says he's from out of state, paying for us to get our gift of $1.68....but if he's not being truthful, it's all in the "means justifies the end", which I feel I must fully support Wade1 on. He's only trying to help me move our Democrat Party forword.
4 Agrees | 6 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
JByrd, I feel we can all come together to agree the reason the MDN banned you(Wade1) was for vulgar language......but I will support you in doing that because I believe the end justifies the means, especially to move the Democrat Party, our Party, forword. So I hope the MDN can change their thinking so that you CAN move us forward in our Democrat Party, using whatever means you deem necessary....and I'm sure Nancy can come together with all of us on that thinking.

lorexxx Real names work on Google+, though there are some that use pseudonyms, they are the ones that spout off, offend, attack and generally behave badly. You know how it is, we'll do what we think we can get away with. I'll behave myself, I don't know about you all. Just for being a member of the 'democrat party' I could say the sky is blue and get nine votes that disagree. To be honest sometimes the sky isn't blue, like during Republicon administrations. :-)

"It was a group of talented musicians that made up – three guys that expressed, power…creating a sound that everybody in this room can relate to and certainly set the stage for our outfit." – Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top inducting Cream into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
Formed in July 1966 and widely regarded as being the first successful supergroup, Cream was a British rock outfit made up of guitarist/vocalist Eric Clapton, bassist/vocalist Jack Bruce and drummer Ginger Baker. By the time the trio came together, they were far from rock and roll neophytes, as each member of the group had found success in other acts during the 1960s. Jack Bruce and Ginger Baker were members of Blues Incorporated until the band broke up in 1963, while Clapton was a member of the Yardbirds from 1963 to 1965. The same year Clapton exited the Yardbirds, Bruce joined John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers (which also featured Clapton on guitar). By 1966, Bruce was a member of Manfred Mann and continued to collaborate with Clapton as a member of Powerhouse, which included Hall of Fame inductee Steve Winwood.
In their short 28-month run, Cream became a commercial success, selling more than 15 million albums worldwide and playing throughout Europe and the U.S. The group's third album, Wheels of Fire, was the world's first platinum-selling double album. Cream's sound was a hybrid of blues, rock and jazz with a psychedelic twist, creating masterpieces such as "I Feel Free," "Crossroads," "White Room" and "Sunshine of Your Love."
In 1993, Cream was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame by ZZ Top. At the ceremony, they performed together for the first time in 25 years, delivering a powerful version of their classic, "Sunshine of Your Love." The song was written by Bruce, Clapton and a poet who worked with the band, Pete Brown. It was originally released on the album Disraeli Gears in 1967 and was released as a single in January 1968. The song was Cream's only gold-selling single in the U.S.
The genesis of the song was a Jimi Hendrix Experience show that Bruce and Clapton attended at the Saville Theatre in London. Inspired by the concert, Bruce went home and wrote the the song's signature riff. Most of the lyrics were written during an all-night session between Bruce and Brown. "I picked up my double bass and played the riff," recalled Bruce. "Pete looked out the window, and the sun was coming up. He wrote 'It's getting dawn and lights close their tired eyes…'" Later, Clapton wrote the bridge of the song, and in doing so gave the track its title.
For the guitar solo, Clapton played the opening lines from the standard ballad, "Blue Moon," creating a balance between the sun and the moon. "Sunshine of Your Love" is renowned among guitarists as being among the best example of Clapton's legendary "woman tone" – his distinctive overdriven, thick yet articulate sound created by playing his Gibson SG solid body electric guitar fitted with humbucker pickups through a Marshall tube amplifier. Clapton's "woman tone" and playing technique are largely restrained, though punctuated with bright and twangy distortion, and complementary licks – a style many players have tried to emulate. According to legend, Atlantic Records, Cream's American label, did not originally like the song and was not going to release it, but changed their tune when Booker T. Jones of Booker T. & the M.G.s, whose Stax label was distributed by Atlantic at the time, said that he liked the song.
Many artists have covered "Sunshine of Your Love," including Santana, Blood, Sweat and Tears, Frank Zappa, Ella Fitzgerald, the 5th Dimension, Living Colour, Ozzy Osbourne, the Goo Goo Dolls and the Police. Jimi Hendrix performed an instrumental version of the song as a setlist staple, and in 1969, during an appearance on the Happening for Lulu television show, Hendrix stopped his band near the end of the set and broke into "Sunshine of Your Love," causing the show to run past its scheduled end time. That memorable moment inspired Elvis Costello's rendition of "Radio Radio" on Saturday Night Live in 1977.
In their brief career, Cream made a significant impact on popular music and inspired everyone from Rush, the Allman Brothers Band and the Grateful Dead, to Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath.

ZF-984: Zend_Acl : debug for inheritance of rules : get source from used rule
The Zend_Acl inheritance system of to be applied rules is powerful because it does allow inheriting rules from multiple parents. The drawback of this mechanic is that the Acl is like a black box returning the 'last inserted' rule.
When debugging an application, or even during normal usage, it can be very informative for the users to get informed what rules have been applied. Following a previous discussion with Darby Felton : Consider the following code:<?php require_once 'Zend/Acl.php'; $acl = new Zend_Acl(); require_once 'Zend/Acl/Role.php'; $acl->addRole(new Zend_Acl_Role('guest')) ->addRole(new Zend_Acl_Role('member')) ->addRole(new Zend_Acl_Role('admin')); $parents = array('guest', 'member', 'admin'); $acl->addRole(new Zend_Acl_Role('someUser'), $parents); require_once 'Zend/Acl/Resource.php'; $acl->add(new Zend_Acl_Resource('someResource')); $acl->deny('guest', 'someResource'); $acl->allow('member', someResource'); echo $acl->isAllowed('guest', 'someResource') ? 'allowed' : 'denied'; ?>
So, the printed result should be 'Allowed' since the rules are checked as admin => no rule member =>allowed ===>exit (guest is not processed)
The problem is then to know that the 'allowed' result actually comes from the 'member' Role, not from 'Guest' nor 'Admin' My suggestion is then to allow a debug output (or whatever its name) that could return an array as:
0]function isAllowed on 'guest' 'someResource': check for specific rule: none [1]function isAllowed on 'guest' 'someResource': check for rule on parent 'admin' : none [2]function isAllowed on 'guest' 'someResource': check for rule on parent 'member' : 'allowed' returning this value [3]end of processing this would be very very helpful when debugging an application!!
The developers will benefit from this because they will be able to follow the complete logical commands operating their application The users will benefit because they can be informed why a resource is not available, and react accordingly (ask privileges to the admins, change the access rules, etc)
I belive this would be quite simple to achieve as this only reflects the way Acl did the processing (inside some kinds of loops,I guess)
Your comments are welcome.
I really like this idea! How better to illustrate the way inheritance works in Zend_Acl than by providing dynamic feedback from working with your own data? I also think it would be quite simple to build this into Zend_Acl.
Thanks, Vincent, for the suggestions!
This doesn't appear to have been fixed in 1.5.0. Please update if this is not correct.
Assigning to Ralph to get closure on this issues.
If we are to support this, it should be done by adding a Zend_Log instance to the $acl object.
I would support this if the API include a setLogger(Zend_Log $logger); method. And then if internal methods used a INFO level log to output about information within the ACL.
Ralph, Nice idea. That would create a cleaner and understandable API. Having attached logger instead of "debug" method should be a preferred solution.
While this is a worthwhile feature, the ZF team will not develop this feature, but if a community member would like to pick up and develop it, they may make an assignment of it.
This sounded like a great idea, so i whipped something up today. Following ralph's suggestion this adds a setLogger public method and changes the DFS searches to log to it.
See logtest.php for a quick demonstration.
Daniel, You provided Zend_Log - in place I suppose of Zend_Acl (that would actually send messages to assigned Zend_Log) instance. Or am I missing something?
Sorry about that Torio, wasn't paying enough attention last night. Here's the Acl.php that you actually need.
added a svn diff for the change.

Contributors to this project are urgently needed! Foomatic has evolved to an unofficial standard used by many distributions and around 15000 people every day are visiting our web site. The project is currently maintained almost entirely by Till, and he hasn't enough time to do everything.
There are plenty of ways to contribute to this project, so programming knowledge is not required. You can help with any of the following:
Additional info (partially outdated) about contributing to Foomatic is available in the tutorial chapter "How To Contribute: Helping the Advance of Linux Printing" (PDF).
As a user of a certain printer model, please post your experience in the "User Notes" section of your printers' page. Please tell with which driver and which option settings your printer works best, what is supported and what not, whether you use Foomatic or another setup infrastructure. Tell also whether the information in the printer's entry is correct (recommended driver, drivers which support the printer, comments, etc). Please report bugs in the entries also on our forums.
If your printer is not listed yet, simply add it by clicking the appropriate links on the printer listings pages or the "Add similar printer" link on a printer entry page of a similar printer. The latter way saves you from a lot of typing as most fields get pre-filled. But be careful to change everything what is different on the new printer. Especially the auto-detection data you should obtain from the actual printer (see instructions on the printer input page).
Or go directly to the add printer form.
Also reporting that a printer does not work at all is important for us, users should be warned before they buy a "Paperweight".
Please try to make a complete and correct report; entering wrong or unreproducible data will more confuse than help.
Developers might even attempt provide complete XML files. Downloading and installing the Foomatic packages gives an environment for testing. Refer to the format description in the end of the README of the foomatic-db-engine package. Do also the needed changes in driver and option XML files and generate a patch to our Bazaar repositories. See the instructions for contributors.
If you're really ambitious, you could go through a printer manufacturer's web site and tabulate data in XML for all current models.
If you have discovered a free software driver which is not listed, please tell us (in the driver comment field and also on the forums) the driver's home page. If the driver is not available for download any more, please send us the newest source package of it which you can get, so that we can re-host this driver. Please also tell us all your experiences, special tricks, which printers does it support, and how to use the driver. Also here providing XML data as described in the README of the foomatic-db-engine package is welcome. If you generate the XML files with scripts, please send us the scripts, too.
You have developed or plan to develop a driver? Then please put it under a free software license and make it available for download (we can host it for you, if needed). Consider also using the OpenPrinting Vector, CUPS Raster, and IJS interfaces to connect your driver to GhostScript and under no circumstances patch it into GhostScript. This way users can easily add the driver to their systems. Include also a generator for PPDs and/or Foomatic data into your driver's source package, so that users can easily set up printer queues with your driver. This also makes it easier for us to list your driver on our site and for distributions to support your driver. Consult the README of the foomatic-db-engine package to obtain the necessary Foomatic background knowledge.
If you are a printer manufacturer, test your printers to find which ones work with free software, or provide free software drivers. Ideally, provide Foomatic data and/or PPDs for your printers and drivers. This will lead to useful listings of your printers in the support database and good reports on the Vendor Info and Suggested Printers pages.
Please post also all kinds of bug reports of our web site and Foomatic on the appropriate forums, ideally in the LF OpenPrinting Site Support.
Please do not report only "I cannot print" or "Foomatic does not work". Try to investigate as best you can what the origin of the problem is. Read the documentation of your distribution, your printing system, Foomatic, this web site, GhostScript, the driver, the CUPS printing tutorial, ... Read the Foomatic database entry pages of the printer and the driver, check through the forums and their archives. Check your printing system's log files, check whether all kernel modules are loaded, check whether you can print by entering the GhostScript command line manually or by sending a text or PostScript directly to the printer device. You can also try to surround the printing system by trying to print without spooler.
Turn on the debug modes of your printing software, for example the "LogLevel" setting in the /etc/cups/cupsd.conf file of CUPS. In "foomatic-rip", the universal filter script of Foomatic, you can turn on the debug mode by editing the script replacing the "my $debug = 0;" line by "my $debug = 1;". This debug mode leads to a log file named /tmp/foomatic-rip.log and to the PostScript as sent to the renderer (usually GhostScript or the built-in interpreter of a PostScript printer) in /tmp/foomatic-rip.ps.
When you post your report, tell exactly which distribution ("Mandriva 2007", "SuSE 10.1", but not "Linux 7.2"), which printer model, which driver, which option settings, and which printer port you are using. Make also your log files and configuration files, the output of "lsmod", "lpstat", "lpq", and other diagnostic commands available, and also the file which you tried to print.
Do you have knowledge and experience with printing using free software? Then please help the users on this very complicated subject. The users post their questions on the forums of this site. So read all the forums (also of other printer brands then yours, because some questions turn out not to be model-specific) and help the users with your answers.
The most difficult questions we face are distribution-specific questions (we collectively know Mandriva, Ubuntu, Debian, Red Hat, and SuSE); also questions about Windows and Mac interoperability are often puzzlers.
Documentation about the database structure, the Perl API, and how the software works, you find in the README files of the foomatic-db-engine and the foomatic-filters packages. Detailed info about Foomatic 2.0.x you can find in the tutorial chapter "Foomatic from the Developer's View: How does Foomatic work?" (PDF). Most of this applies also to Foomatic 3.0.x.
Here are some documents about the former Foomatic 2.0: The roadmap, and Till's original ideas for Foomatic 2.0 listed in his announcement of version 1.9.
Here is our current TODO list (This list can be considered as an RFC, a "Request For Comments", please comment, suggest, discuss on the Foomatic development mailing list, see also some ideas and sketches of implementation):
- More documentation for developers, especially about the XML database format so that contribution of data gets easier.
- Support for conflicts of option settings (as Duplex on transparencies).
- Add CUPS-1.2-specific keywords to numerical and string options in the PPD files so that these options are fully accessible also from the web interface of CUPS 1.2 or other CUPS-1.2-specific frontends. CUPS 1.2 has native support for numerical and string options.
- Multiple-language PPD file generation (see CUPS 1.2 documentation and CUPS DDK).
- Option for the output of the version number for Foomatic command line tools, esp. foomatic-rip (forum thread)
- For every option foomatic-rip should also be able to handle "KDEPrint-<option>=<value>", as when the user enters an option/value pair under "Options>>"/"Additional Tags" in kprinter, "KDEPrint-<option>=<value>" is added to the CUPS command line by some KDE versions.
- Rewrite foomatic-rip in C, to get it faster. (forum thread)
- Write testing scripts for foomatic-rip, for LSB 3.2 and for regression testing
- UPDF file generation (UPDF is candidate to replace PPDs in the future)
- Make hard disk space occupation and package size of the manufacturer-supplied PPD files smaller by having them compressed in a more efficient way than individual gzipping and uncompressing them with the CUPS 1.2 on-the-fly PPD generation feature (See Ubuntu bug #39847). This is especially interesting for live CDs (Ubuntu, Mandriva, Knoppix).
- Support for "PickMany" options (enumerated choice options where more than one item can be chosen). This option type is defined in the Adobe specs for PPD files.
- Categorize options in "Standard" and "Advanced" option groups, so that the most important options appear in the main dialog and advanced options in an extra dialog.
- Foomatic data for the "gs2hbp" driver to make Brother printers print in host-based mode where all their features including PIN-protected printing and HQ1200 (2400x660 dpi) work (see also this forum thread). DONE in the "hl7x0" driver entry.
- A "tiff" driver entry for TIFF printers (GhostScript has a built-in TIFF output device).
- PPDs to make "hp4laser" script working with CUPS/foomatic-rip, as it supports the "paging" mode of the printer which allows to use high resolutions with low memory in the printer (See the user comment on this page and this forum posting).
- PPDs for HP DesignJets with CUPS DDK and its HP driver (that driver supports the DesignJets, only the PPDs are missing).
- Drivers for "Paperweights" (Documentation about printer languages and protocols).
So there is a lot to do, if you want to participate, or suggest something which is not listed, please post on the Foomatic development mailing list and use the current Bazaar snapshot as base for your development (Instructions for submitting changes via Bazaar). The README files of Foomatic, especially of the foomatic-db-engine and the foomatic-filters packages, explain the data structure, the Perl API, how "foomatic-rip" works, and more. Happy hacking!
Money, Hardware, Events ...
In case that you want to help funding our work, get an LF member or sponsor events like for example the Printing Summits and LF OpenPrinting meetings (travel/accommodation for attendees, catering, ...). We are also grateful for invitations to get to free software events, congresses, and fairs. Publicity is very important for us to get more contributors. Please contact us.
If you want to donate hardware (printers, network print boxes, ...), please go to the forums and post your intention (or send a private message to Till via the forum interface), or in case of a printer for which free drivers are under development, contact the authors of the driver (Go to the printer's page, follow the link to the driver and then the link to the driver's home page]. We will also help you getting in contact with the driver authors. If your printer is a "Paperweight", and you have already bought/plan to buy a better one, do not throw away your old printer, inform us and we might be able get it to someone who can make it work.

Teva Pharmaceutical Industries will develop and market Xenon Pharmaceuticals' clinical-stage pain treatment XEN402 worldwide, as the generic drug giant seeks to expand its branded portfolio of drugs for pain and CNS indications.
In return, under its collaborative development and exclusive worldwide license agreement, Teva will pay Xenon $41 million upfront, plus up to $335 million tied to undisclosed development, regulatory, and sales-based milestones.
Xenon will also receive royalties payable on sales, and retain an option to participate in commercialization in the U.S. under the collaboration with Teva, its seventh with a larger biopharma partner.
"Teva is building a focused pipeline of novel medicines in select areas of medical need. XEN402 fits this strategy," Jeremy M. Levin, D.Phil, Teva's president and CEO, said in a statement. "It holds the potential to address the significant unmet medical need for the many patients who suffer from chronic pain. In addition, XEN402 has the potential for broader therapeutic use across other pain conditions."
XEN402 treats pain by blocking the Nav1.7 and Nav1.8 sodium channels found in sensory nerve endings, which can increase in chronic painful conditions. In a study published January 2012 in the journal Pain, an oral form of the drug was shown to be effective at relieving the pain associated with erythromelalgia. And, in a 2011 Phase II trial of the treatment's effectiveness in alleviating pain from post-herpetic neuralgia, topical XEN402 delivered greater clinically meaningful reductions in pain than placebo.

Okay, the lollipops was bit of a stretch but there was
plenty of candy-including suckers-at the various booths at the Intermountain
Snowmobile Show in South Jordan, UT, this past weekend.
And we're not just talking candy you could eat. There was
all sorts of other eye candy thousands of snowmobile enthusiasts were looking
at all Saturday day long. There were new sleds from all the major
manufacturers, along with numerous mod sleds, antique and vintage sleds and
pieces and parts of sleds spread out throughout the Salt Lake County Events
Center. And outside there
were a few used sleds looking for a new owner at the swap meet.
Sponsored by SnoWest Magazine
and the Utah Snowmobile Association, the Intermountain Snowmobile Show
experienced another great day on the second day of the show. Hundreds of people
attended the seminars, many sledders walked out with dozens of door prizes,
kids and adults had a great time picking and choosing which color and design
they wanted on a hat being painted right in front of them at the Klim Hat
Booth, several folks watched snowmobiling videos at the 509 Theater on the
upper level, many voted for their favorite mod sled in the Western Power
Sports/Ultimax Belts mod show as well as their favorite vintage sled in the
antique/vintage sled display and dozens more got a free lunch from Arctic Cat,
which is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year and threw a
lunch party at the snow show. Others got a chance to see what we're doing for
our latest SnoWest project sled.
No doubt there was plenty going on at the snow show and
those who attended got their snowmobile fix at least until the snow flies.

Hawk Performance Honda Brake Pads
Featured Brake Pads Products
Brake pads are the parts of the car that grip onto the brake rotors, or brake discs, and actually force the vehicle to slow down using friction. Pads that no longer have a strong grip do not work effectively. Many drivers choose to install new Hawk Performance Honda performance brake pads regularly, just to avoid any future problems. Road racers, in particular, rely on new Hawk Performance Honda racing brake pads all the time, as high speeds and quick stops combine to result in dramatic wear and tear on these pads. From new Hawk Performance Honda metallic brake pads to ceramic ones, effective brake pads can make all the difference between a timely stop and an untimely accident.

The purpose of this study was to determine the physiological effects of this pathogen on experimentally infected boreal toads. Plasma osmolality, sodium, and potassiu...
Temperature, hydric environment, and prior pathogen exposure alter the experimental severity of chytridiomycosis in boreal toads
Prevalence of the pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), implicated in amphibian population declines worldwide, is associated with habitat moisture and temperature, but few studies have varied these factors and measured the response to infection in amphibian hosts. We evaluated how varying hu...
Characterization of the bacterial microflora on the skin of boreal toads, Anaxyrus (Bufo) boreas boreas, and Columbia spotted frogs, Rana luteiventris, in Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming USA
Cutaneous bacteria inhabiting the skin of boreal toads (Anaxyrus (Bufo) boreas boreas) and columbia spotted frogs (Rana luteiventris) from Grand Teton National Park were isolated and identified using their 16S SSU rRNA gene sequence. We also used a culture-independent method, Termina...
Sensitivity and specificity of histology for diagnoses of four common pathogens and detection of nontarget pathogens in adult Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) in fresh water
Histology is often underutilized in aquatic animal disease screening and diagnostics. The agreement between histological classifications of infection and results using diagnostic testing from the American Fisheries Society's Blue Book was conducted with 4 common salmon pathogens: Aeromonas salmonici...
The use of epidemiology for evaluating the performance and administration strategies of topical drugs for controlling sea lice in Chile
Sea lice is considered the most important ectoparasite that affects salt water farmed salmonids around the world. Its high economic impact has motivated efforts for its control. Caligus rogercresseyi is the sea lice species of major economic importance for the salmon industry in Chile. Sea lice cont...
Space-time cluster analysis of the non-pathogenic infectious salmon anemia virus (HPR0 ISAV) in Chile, 2011–2012
In 2007, Chile reported its first case of infectious salmon anemia (ISA), caused by ISA virus (ISAV), in sea-cage reared Atlantic salmon. By 2010, the ISA disease outbreak was under control, but similarly to other countries, Chile continues to occasionally detect the non-pathogenic variant of ISAV (...
Parasite transmission between captive and wild fish is mediated by spatial, abiotic, biotic, and management factors. More effective population management and conservation strategies can result from multivariable assessments of factors associated with spatial dynamics of parasite spillover.
