The rule allows people to select a final collective ranking by submitting a bid vector with six components (the six possible rankings of the three alternatives). In a laboratory experiment we test the robustness of the rule to the introduction of subsidies and taxes. We have two main results. First, in all treatments, the most frequently chosen ranking is the socially efficient one. Second, subsidies slightly enhance overbidding. Furthermore, an analysis of individual bid vectors reveals interesting behavioral regularities. jportal_jpjournal_00000016 2012-02-20T10:32:32.191Z 2012-02-20T10:32:02.069Z

- Visit Website
Site CNN14A: Chesapeake Trail
The Chesapeake Trail wanders through more than 12 acres of diverse communities. It was once part of a much larger tract, but ownership changes and adjacent development have resulted in this remaining parcel. This area is home to several ecological communities. The cutover area is home to early successional species. This area attracts many small mammals which in turn provide prey for hawks and owls. Many butterflies take advantage of the wildlflowers that thrive in this area. The mature forest and its understory of holly and mountain laurel provide ample cover for many forest species such as hermit thrush. Continue on and you will come to an overlook into the saltmarsh at the head of the Western Branch of the Corrotoman River. This is a prime spot to see wood duck, which also breed within the forest along the trail. Hooded merganser and beaver are among the other wildlife your're likely to encounter here. As you return to the parking lot you'll pass a tranquil fern glade on your way to an ephemeral pool. This pool provides habitat for a number of amphibians and invertebrates. A variety of plants will add interest to your walk; jewelweed, trailing arbutus, wild ginger, and a variety of ferns including dissected grape fern can be seen along the trail. The trail was created through a cooperative partnership of the site owner, Lancaster County, and the Northern Neck Chapter of National Audubon Society, which developed and maintained the trail. The trail traverses approximately 1/2 mile of varied terrain and can be walked in 30 minutes.
From Hickory Hollow Nature Trail turn right (south) from the parking area south onto Regina Road/Rt. 604. Turn right (west) onto SR 3/Mary Ball Road and proceed 1.6 miles. Entrance to the Chesapeake Trail is on your left.

Proof that Russia is Experimenting with Nuclear Tesla Trooper Death Energy

Tags:electric tesla explosion in russia soviet wmds
What do you get when you mix cold hearted Soviet science, wreckless Tesla electrical experiments and raw nuclear power?
This terrifying video, shot just outside of Moscow!
My eldest brother fought and died protecting humanity from the NAZIs. All my life I wish Harry Truman could have had a nuke for every country in Europe, but I would have made a Faustian deal if it meant we could have dropped a dandy right in the heart of Russia!
Dear friends, the Soviets are an evil people who want to destroy us all. Only a sick, sadistic race of people could dare tinker with Tesla energy and mix it with nuclear power, all to wipe out the innocents of a non-violent country like America.
In the video above, a Russia civilian is driving along a Russian highway and listening to their government radio. What a surprise that John Lennon is singing a communist manifesto ballad as the massive electrical explosions take place in the distance.
I recognize the explosions. They are the very ones created long ago by a maniac Russian spy named Nikolai Tesla. The demented sot stole many secrets from Thomas Edison and shuttled them back to Russia, where they sent him resources back to create deadly instruments of destruction right in the heart of America. Fortunately, the American government found all his stolen research and WMDs, casting him out of this great nation.
It seems the Russians are still doing his experiments, however. The Tesla explosion you witnessed here was just a test shot and the Russian civilians thankfully were able to put this on Russian Youtube before the authorities could get to them.
With Russia's recent aggressiveness, I see no other choice than America to develop the most destructive WMD built ever and be able to take Russia and China out with one fell swoop. Some may say I'm being drastic, but do not forget the Cuban Missile Crisis. Russia already tried to wipe us out and they will do it again.
I spoke to my grandson today and he says this is called nuclear Tesla Trooper energy. I have no idea what it means, but I do know I'll gladly shine up my shotgun and give any Russian commando entering my home an explosive taste of Pb poison!
Share this insane video with your friends and thank Alex Keating for nabbing this one from the Russian internet.

What does Russia and Nazi's have to do with one another? They were allies? Keyword is WERE. As the war went on, Russia became apart of the Allies. And why would you want to kill Russia now? Aren't you supposed to turn the other cheek?
"Dear friends, the Soviets are an evil people who want to destroy us all."
Even if that's true, Soviet Russia isn't around anymore, making your point moot.
"Only a sick, sadistic race of people could dare tinker with Tesla energy and mix it with nuclear power, all to wipe out the innocents of a non-violent country like America."
Non-violent country like America? You mean the same country you hold above all others, the same country whose nukes you want to use to kill off the rest of the world, the same country that has invaded a country it had no business being in twice now? Are you talking about the same America?

I abhor war, but when we have to do it we have to strike hard. If we had dropped a barrage of neutrino bombs in Iraq, we would have a better situation now. We could have a military base, unlimited access to our oil there and a great launching point for wiping out Iran with the same treatment.

"I'm happy with all our wars and only encourage us to strike our enemies harder"
Those are not the words of someone who abhors war. Maybe you don't know what the word means.
Verb – Regard with disgust and hatred.
If you did indeed abhor war you would not be happy with America getting involved in Iraq and Iran. Also the oil in Iraq doesn't belong to America, if it did you wouldn't have started, in part at least, a war to gain control over it.
Praise or Condemn: 5 2
I do abhor war. Everyone should. But there comes a time when it must be done. I abhor how Iraq was handled. As I said, if I were the POTUS I would have wiped Iraq out in one devastating swoop. There would be nothing but buildings and some nice oil left, no terrorism at all. I would have immediately given Iran, Syria, Libya, Egypt and any OPEC country we missed the same treatment.

Actually August, that was Edison. Tesla created alternating current electricity. In fact Edison electrocuted an elephant trying to slander the idea of AC electricity to make people use DC instead. Most of Edison's ideas were stolen from his apprentice, Tesla. Not only that, Tesla created a way to use wireless energy to power devices.
I actually studied Tesla, it's amazing the things he created that back then that seem even in present time as impossible with current technology.

A weapon of that power would destroy the entire human race. The only real weapon that would be capable of doing this would be a virus (probably modified combination of influenza/Ebola Zaire). The problem with this is that such a combination can't be made. Influenza is a virus. Ebola is a prion, a totally different life form whose very status as a life form is debatable. Also, if released, there would be no way to control it and no way to cure it (prions such as Ebola currently are incurable). Anyone who had been exposed would likely pass it on then die, and the planet could be infected within 2 years.

anonymous atheist
okay i know i said i would be off but i must comment
1. Nikola Tesla was a patriot, he was born in serbia but moved to america because he loved it, he tried to sell many of his experimental "death ray" (not my words) to the U.S. military, they refused. I have read his biography and know more about him than anyone else here, he was a great man and a patriot.
2. How can you say america is peaceful when we are currently in a war, and just finished one up.
3. Nuclear and Tesla technology, that makes no sense, you get to much of the information here from video games you're grandson has played, he has been playing red alert 3.
4. Russia and China are not allies.
5. Russia is in no shape to start a war right now.
6. If the U.S. went to war against Russia, we would all be killed in global thermo nuclear war. I expect you rebuttals answering each of my statements, not one sentence insults.
Praise or Condemn: 7 3
Proof that you have no idea what is going on.
The Soviet Union collapsed along with communism about twenty odd years ago. Russia is no longer communism. Russia hasn't been communist since 1990.
The video is a video of an explosion or something similar which is due to a fault at an electrical substation. It was not the result of merging Tesla based electrical experiments and nuclear power.
What relevance does your comment about your brother dying in World War 2 have to anything in this article? I thought this was meant to be about Russia. Russia fought AGAINST Germany in World War 2, in fact, as much as the Americans will probably hate to admit it, they were involved when Berlin was being attacked by the British and American forces. They helped defeat Germany.
You wish Truman nuked every country in Europe? Really? You do realise that a large number of European countries were not communist? Many of them were allies to America. Well done. You've just claimed you wish Truman started an unwinnable war. If the Cold War actually became an all-out war there would be no way the world could have survived it. Humanity would be no more. Neither Russia or America could afford to go into an all out war. The cost of life was far too great. Neither country would ever have won.
Side note: One nuke for every country in Europe? You think it would take one nuke per country to gain control of Europe? It wouldn't. Granted a nuke is a devastating weapon but that devastation is a max 20-30 mile radius. There will be plenty of survivors. It would have united the whole of EUROPE against America, at least half of which were allied with America at the time. The rest of the world might even get involved due to alliances with Europe. It would lead to a war of America vs the rest of the world. Even with nuclear weaponry America would have lost as the combined nuclear arsenal of the rest of the world would greatly outweigh that of America.
"A non-violent country like America" Really? You are going to claim to be non-violent? You do realise that since WWII America has been involved in conflict almost non-stop? Also America is currently at war? And Americans have responded to a shooting in a school with phrases like: "It wouldn't have happened if the other pupils were armed"? Still think America is not violent?
Nikola Tesla (not Nikolai) was born in Smiljan which was part of the Austrian Empire specifically modern day Croatia. He was not Russian he was Serbian there is a difference. He gained American citizenship in 1891 and remained in America until his death. He was not a spy.
China and Russia are not currently allies. You are being very drastic. What you seem to be suggesting is starting all out war with two powerful countries with some weapon that currently doesn't exist. That could lead to another World War. No country could afford that realistically at the moment. It is doubtful the UN will just sit back and let America wipe out two countries for no apparent reason. America will end up on the loosing side of a war as no one, not even Great Britain, a group of countries that keeps following you into your wars at the moment, will come to your aid because what you propose is genocide.

You are an ignorant hippie. Do you really think Vladmir Putin is not a Soviet? He was their KGB. Do you not realize that the Soviet leadership did everything in their power to prevent the good ol' system from collapsing? You may be too young to remember the details and military standoff that precipitated the true 'fall' of the USSR, but rest assured that the Russian elite still hate America as much as when they planned to wipe us out with their nukes. And there is only one country that has more nuclear weapons that us.
Praise or Condemn: 0 6
Ignorant hippie huh?
I knew Vladimir Putin is EX-KGB. The key part being ex. The KGB was dissolved in 1991. There was nothing that could be done to stop the USSR from collapsing. Many factors contributed to the fall of communism. Many involving that it can't work in practice due to human nature.
You best hope the "Russian elite" don't happen to hate you as much as they did during the cold war. Probably because that one country that have a larger nuclear arsenal than America is in fact Russia. With the exception of China (who has less) and Russia (which have a lot more) every country with access to nuclear weapons that according to the UN can all have roughly the same number. America's nuclear strength isn't as large as you seem to think.
Praise or Condemn: 3 0
Oh yeah, talking about nuclear weapons you do realise they work better as a disincentive than an actual weapon? The threat of nuclear strike is more terrifying than the reality. It is admittedly a horrific weapon. However even the most powerful, is not as dangerous as most people think. Its actual kill range is very limited of only a few miles. The radiation admittedly travels a lot farther than 2/3 miles but still you can be perfectly safe about 20 to 30 miles away from ground zero. Maybe you'll take out one major city and a few nearby villages, but pretty much the rest of the country would be safe and able to counter-attack.
Praise or Condemn: 1 0
Just a small Point to your argument in that time the nuclear missile was less powerful as is it today
and America had enough money ( and man power ) for 2 nuke actually they was not sure if they could have dropped the other nuke over nagasaki because they said it's was not completed
so wanting to nuke every city in europe would have taken month of preparation if not more and these countries would have a chance to actually go to USA and wipe out the country

More interesting facts, Tesla's experiment was sabatoged, He was so depressed, he died. He never told anyone how he did it. He took his secret to the grave. Nobody knows how the hell he got the electrons to travel through the air to power a friggin' lightbulb.
Praise or Condemn: 2 1
Tesla invented the Tesla Coil which was supposed to give everyone free electricity. Such would have been an amazing improvement. But, because there was no profit in it, his experiment was sabatoged. Know your history.
Praise or Condemn: 3 1
It's true. Tesla was a genius. I've spent years studying him. In fact, many countries are picking up on his wireless energy. Only problem is they don't know if it will have a negative affect on the body by being exposed for extended periods of time. Also things such as pace makers might be affected, so they still need more testing. Also, we know how he got electricity to they light bulb. It's a lot like cell phones and WiFi.

it's was something called electric wave ( not magnetic wave as some people would think ) but yeah the work of tesla was sabotaged because it's would not make any profit whatsover

Luna Lights have evolved out of a personal search to fuse the cool clean lines of modern design with a need for warmth and sparkle.
She explains it as a balancing act between the head and the heart: 'My head wants a clutter free clear space to think in, my heart wants something softer and more fanciful and so the aim was to create unique ceramic lights for the design-aware individual. We want our lights to be uplifting and aim to make people smile. The patterns of light they scatter across a room have the quality of fairy lights (that I could never bear to take down after Christmas) and fireflies, seen for the first time in Italy a few years ago and which were a magical kick-start to this lighting project.'
Casting glitterball light patterns, each light adds a special atmosphere to any indoor space and unlike most other lights they can also be adapted for use outdoors as they are stoneware fired and frostproof.

In Chiapas
1. 17th Anniversary of the 1994 Zapatista Uprising!
- On January 1, the Zapatista National Liberation Army (EZLN) celebrated the 17th anniversary of its 1994 Uprising. As was the case with celebrations for other recent anniversaries, the Zapatistas celebrated together without news reports or the general public.
2. Las Abejas Remembers the Acteal Massacre
- The civil society organization Las Abejas (The Bees), adherent to the Zapatista Other Campaign, gathered in Acteal, Chiapas, to commemorate the 13th anniversary of the Acteal Massacre of 45 indigenous people on December 22, 1997. They named the three-day gathering Weaving Resistance in Front of Counterinsurgency and Dependence. Las Abejas issued a statement regarding its position on several issues relevant to them, including autonomy. In attendance at the gathering were representatives from autonomous communities in other parts of Chiapas, as well as from from Oaxaca and San Salvador Atenco.
3. Frayba: More Human Rights Defenders Harassed
- The Fray Bartolome de las Casas Human Rights Center (Frayba) denounced that three activists who collaborate with them have been threatened or harassed in various ways. One of them is a doctor who works with health promoters in Mitziton. Another is a former political prisoner who now works with prisoners and the third is an activist in the northern zone. The threats range from being continuously followed to finding your house broken into and ransacked. The activist in Tumbala Municipality received threats from local police.
4. Mitziton Denounces New Attacks by the Army of God
- The Other Campaign members in the Mitziton ejido denounced that on December 23 members of the Army of God attacked them, kidnapped, tortured and badly beat up one ejido member, beat up several others and then began randomly shooting guns all night long. They also denounced that state government officials signed an an agreement on July 5, 2010 to relocate the Army of God members, but have failed to do so.
on the Chiapas/Guatemala Border
El PaŪs
(Madrid, Spain) newspaper published an article (in Spanish) about the Chiapas border with Guatemala after receiving a document from
revealing great concern by US diplomats about drug trafficking across that "porous" border and the lack of security forces to deter drug trafficking, human trafficking and arms smuggling. Not long after the diplomatic cables were leaked, the Guatemalan government declared a "state of siege" in one of its departments (states) located on the border. The

In Other Parts of Mexico
1. Juarez Activist Murdered in Front of the State Government Palace
- On December 16, Marisela Escobedo Ortiz was shot dead by a gunman as she was protesting in front of the government palace in the state capital of Chihuahua. She was protesting the fact that a judge failed to prosecute the 2008 murder of her daughter, Rubi. Escobedo identified the alleged killer as her daughter's former partner. After his arrest and confession, a three judge panel released him for lack of evidence and he reportedly went into hiding. An appeals court later overturned the panel and convicted him in absentia. The three judges on the panel were suspended. However, the alleged killer's whereabouts remain unknown. Several days after Escobedo's murder, her husband's lumberyard was burned down and her brother-in-law was disappeared and then found dead. The former partner is alleged to have ties to organized crime and Escobedo's relatives are receiving death threats and some have fled to the United States. Escobedo's son applied for political asylum in the US and is currently in an ICE detention Center awaiting action on his case.
2. Kidnappers Release
(Boss) Diego
Diego Fernandez de Cevallos, a powerful attorney and former PAN presidential candidate, was kidnapped for ransom on May 14 of this year. His kidnappers were known only as the "Mysterious Disapperers" until his release and subsequent public appearance on December 20. On that same date, a healthy Jefe Diego appeared in public and his kidnappers released a document entitled "Epilogue of a Disappearance" and identifying themselves as the Network for Global Transformation, a revolutionary armed group (RTG, its initials in Spanish). The RTG says it obtained $30 million dollars from Diego's family and "friends" (political cronies) in exchange for his release. In a well-written communiquť, the RTG chronicles all the evils of neoliberalism and the dirty deeds of specifically-named Mexican politicians and businesspeople for the last 20 some years, at times using a bit of Zapatista terminology, but distinguishable from the Zapatistas by its justification of violence. The communiquť unleashed a flood of speculation and commentary in the Mexican press, some of it absurd. The RTG, or someone claiming to be the RTG, sent a response to
La Jornada
contradicting much of the the commentary and speculation. The 3-part "Epilogue of a Disappearance" communique is available (in Spanish) at:
3. US Delivers Helicopter to Mexico's Secretary of National Defense
- The US State Department reported that in December it delivered a Bell 412 helicopter worth 11 million dollars to Mexico's Secretary of National Defense (Sedena). This is reported to be the eighth and last airship transferred to Mexico under the Merida Initiative (Plan Mexico). The US Embassy in Mexico said that it had delivered another 495 million dollars in equipment and training as of December 2010. It anticipated delivering another 495 million worth of training and equipment.
La Jornada
reports that in November 2010 the US transferred 2 unarmed Bell 412 helicopters to Sedena and 3 UH-60 M Blackhawk helicopters to Mexico for the Federal Police.

I am attempting to write a shell script which will download the latest version of OpenOffice using
wget, and then use the command-line to install the application. I have seen that installing the application is easy, but getting the latest version of OpenOffice is quite difficult.
Note: When I am referring to the latest version, I am not referring to 4.0.0 or 4.0.1, etc..., I am referring to whatever version of OO which is the latest at the time of install, without having to change the shell script.
I can use
wget to fetch the latest from SourceForge:
wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/files/latest/download
... however, it does not fetch the correct file.
Using the browser on Windows 7 x64 will fetch
Apache_OpenOffice_4.0.0_Win_x86_install_en-US.exe, but wget will fetch
How can I use wget to fetch the correct file?
Thank you for your time.
Note 2: wget on Linux fetches the same file.

Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen, Members of Delegations:
I wish to express my delegation's gratitude to the Presidency of the European Union, the European Commission and the Secretariat of the EU for all their efforts in preparing for this 14th session of the GCC-EU Joint Ministerial Council. I wish also to welcome the new members on the European side whose participation in this dialogue will certainly enrich GCC-EU cooperation.
Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen:
It is surely safe to say that international security and stability, which concern us all, as well as the achievement of our goal for a strategic partnership, are strongly linked to our ability to contribute in achieving a just, lasting and comprehensive peace in the Middle East. Our joint responsibility in this regard necessitates that we extend every possible effort to advance the peace process to ensure reaching its desired objective in the face of the visible and dangerous setbacks it has witnessed in recent months. In our opinion these setbacks in the peace process, and the ensuing rising tide of violence and extremism in our region, derive mainly from the path chosen by the Israeli Government. This path is clearly in stark contradiction with all agreed principles and foundations of the peace process, including those of the 'roadmap' and the American vision of two states living in peace and security side by side where decent living conditions for both Palestinians and Israelis could be provided. Peace and security cannot be achieved by unilateral Israeli actions that aim to create new realities on the ground and predetermine the issues of final status negotiations.
Yet this is exactly the path chosen by the Israeli Government in its expansion of settlements and the building of a wall that cuts up large areas of Palestinian lands. I am saddened to say that this irrational Israeli path has recently received public support from the United States, which was supposed to utilize its special relationship with Israel to make it adhere to the foundations of the peace process, not weaken nor destroy them. Even the Israeli announcement of the intent to withdraw from Gaza was not done by adhering to the Road Map but by ignoring and side-stepping it in an attempt to gain legitimacy for settlements in the West Bank, which threatens the pillars of the international legal system. If Israel were serious in its peace efforts, the decision to withdraw from Gaza should have been made under the supervision of the Quartet and in accordance with a balanced implementation of the 'roadmap'. Israel's continued policies of oppression, assassinations, closures, boycott, demolition of houses, destruction of properties and the general humiliation of the Palestinian people can only serve the extremists on both sides by deepening the feelings of despair and paving the way for continued violence and bloodshed.
The GCC states stand ready today, as they always have, to fully support any efforts aiming at establishing the foundations of a just peace in the Middle East. In this context our governments supported the efforts of the Quartet for a balanced implementation of the 'roadmap'. We wish that the recent meeting of the Quartet had produced a clearer and firmer stand to ensure such an implementation by both sides. Perhaps the best way for strengthening the Quartet's efforts is by institutionally combining the 'roadmap' and the Arab Peace Plan through unifying the efforts of the Quartet and the Arab League Peace Committee. The Arab Peace Initiative in our opinion contains more comprehensive elements regarding the final peace settlement, for it provides for peace not only between the Palestinians and the Israelis, but also between Israel and all the Arabs including Syria and Lebanon. The two plans complement each other perfectly. It behooves us to take advantage at the same time of the efforts by civil societies on both sides of the divide to convince their respective public opinion of the desirability of peace. It is an opportunity that should not be dissipated.
As we assert our deep conviction that our region badly needs reforms, which aim to achieve good governance and respect for people's rights, we are deeply concerned when voices are heard suggesting a tradeoff between this need for reforms and the need for peace. Although they are both related, each of these needs is valued on its own merit. We should not utilize the pressing need for reforms to postpone or ignore the equally pressing need for peace, nor should we escape to the future to avoid the responsibility towards overcoming the obstacles facing the peace process. The other side of the coin is equally valid: reforms should not be held hostage by developments in the peace process. We were committed to the path of reforms before the so-called Greater Middle East Initiative was launched. In spite of the current difficulties in the peace process, our reform efforts are continuous and cumulative in their effects.
Our political leadership is keenly aware of the necessity of continuing the reform efforts to meet the needs of our citizens by achieving good governance and equality to all citizens in the eyes of the law. These reform efforts will continue through calculated steps regardless of any internal reservations or external pressures. Reforms for us are not mere slogans or formulas imposed upon us from without. Our societies are not laboratories for experimentation or stages for adventurous schemes. These reforms are for the benefit of our citizens, and it is they who are the true arbiters of their government's efforts. Providing investments, the transfer of technology, the signing of free trade agreements and supporting our efforts to join the World Trade Organization are all needed at this time to create the proper environment for our own programs of modernization and ensuring their speedy achievement. These are the areas where the advanced West can truly help the process of reforms. If we believe that there are universal values, then the best way the advanced Western countries can influence their spread and acceptance is to provide the example worthy of emulation, and the avoidance of the perception of double standards and imposed dictates. This is the only way to build credibility and trust that are sadly lacking in the Middle East due to past experiences. We recognize the more balanced policies of the European countries towards the just settlement of the Arab-Israeli conflict and the efforts to remove the obstacles to peace, and these policies are duly appreciated.
Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen:
I hope that our next meeting would be held under more promising conditions regarding the peace process. The time is ripe for peace if only we have the will to stand firm against those whose interest seems to be to continue the conflict.

A 15-year-old boy in South Carolina was not arrested after his mom called 911 and got local law enforcement involved in a situation that is usually handled within the home -- the secretive perusal of porn by teenagers. According to a Huffington Post report on Aug. 7, the South Carolina mom is making headlines after calling the Spartanburg County Sheriff's Office to make a complaint that her teen son was watching pornography on the living room television.
The Sheriff's Office said they were called to the residence on Tuesday afternoon to take the report. "She stated that when she entered the residence, her 15-year-old son was in his bedroom," the report stated. "[Her] daughter turned on the TV and porn was on."
After she ushered her 2-year-old out of the room she "immediately" turned off the television and called the police. The report goes on to say that the mother told the responding officer that she had a few problems with her teen son's behavior of late.
"[The mom] requested that a report be done to document... her son's behavior and due to her daughter being exposed to porn."
But if the upset mother thought she was going to see her 15-year-old son arrested, she was mistaken. And there was a simple explanation for the non-action taken. Nothing illegal had occurred.
"I don't know of any South Carolina law that was broken," Lt. Kevin Bobo told HuffPost on Thursday. He said it was the first time such a 911 call had ever been fielded, noting that it was "unusual" for a parent to call the cops to report their teenager looking at porn.
And by "unusual," the good lieutenant most likely was making a comment on the mother's behavior, not the son's.
The mother was not to be denied her report, though. She even completed a "voluntary statement" to the sheriff's deputy, according to the police report. All of which undoubtedly thoroughly embarrassed the 15-year-old and, in some way, might shame him into never watching adult movies again. Maybe. Or, even more likely, he won't ever again watch porn on the living room television.
Still, the proper way to have handled the matter would have been to have a private discussion with the teen (see video above), set down firm boundaries and guidelines on what is appropriate -- and inappropriate -- to view in the household, especially considering that there is a very young family member in the house as well. Trying to embarrass and shame the teen and document the daughter's "exposure" to porn, something a 2-year-old will not cognitively process as wrong, immoral, or inappropriate (and likely forget within a few minutes or hours) if the moment is not belabored and reinforced with drama and made memorable, only begets resentment and will likely prove counterproductive. Calling 911 and bringing in the police was an over-reaction that could potentially scar a sensitive person for life or simply present the parent as an authority figure without credibility. Insisting that a report be filed when the officer would not make an arrest was a bit heavy-handed and only accentuated an ineffectual attempt at trying to discipline natural curiosity and sexual exploration, normal behaviors by most standards.
In short, parenting is a difficult process. Making reactionary and ridiculous decisions that do nothing to solve behavioral issues in children and teens only serve to exacerbate the problems, not provide meaningful or helpful answers.

For the rogue in all of us
Thirty-four-year-old John C. Maier had his work cut out for him. In May of 1989, he became the brewmaster for a one-year-old Oregon brewery. He'd already spent nine years of his life working as an electrician for Hughes Aircraft Co. His job there? "Top Gun" stuff. Maier was senior electronic technician for the F-14 Tomcat.
While he liked working on the Tomcat radar, John had his artillery set on a new target. He wanted to make beer. Maier's beer, however, would be — in the words of his company's slogan — "Dedicated to the Rogue in all of us." It would never be served ice cold, and he wanted it perfect.
Today, Rogue Ales Brewery continues to run on those two principles and 28 others. It's named after the famously wild and rowdy river that courses through the state and, like its namesake, Rogue will often move in the opposite direction of mainstream breweries.
This fall, Heinen's will carry the following two examples of the Oregon brewery's singular ales. If there's any rogue in you, you'll want to check them out.
Dead Guy Ale was originally created to celebrate the Mayan Day of the Dead. Dead Guy Ale is a spin-off of the typical German-styled Maibock. While the traditional Maibock is a lager, Dead Guy is made with the "PacMan" ale yeast.
Four different malts contribute to the classic Maibock presentation, while the Perle and Saaz hops are used to give the ale an added bitterness. Along with the flavor, the aromas are decidedly sweet, both from the malt and the hops. This is great with chili, stews, burgers, pizza and spicy Thai and Asian foods.
Morimoto Black Obi Soba is made in conjunction with the Food Network's famous Iron Chef, Masaharu Morimoto. Brewed with roasted buckwheat, this ale has a rich, malty flavor with a nutty nuance to it. Three different hops, including Cascade, give the beer zip and great balance. Food pairings include grilled chicken or fish, roasted vegetables or spinach salad with blue cheese.

Pitfalls of Career Typecasting
by Georgia Adamson - Nov, 2012
Avoid Career Typecasting You may have heard the term typecasting in relation to actors, who sometimes get pigeon-holed for a certain type of role and find it difficult, if not impossible, to land other types of roles. For example, someone who has always done comedy might face rejection from film companies that are casting for a drama or action-adventure movie. What does this have to do with careers?

A former commanding officer of the U.S. Navy's Blue Angels flying aerobatic team has been reprimanded -- and his career is likely over -- after he was found guilty of charges sparked by a sexual harassment complaint filed while he commanded the elite flying squadron.
The Navy says Capt. Gregory McWherter was found guilty of failure to obey an order or regulation and conduct unbecoming of an officer during an "Admiral's Mast" hearing.
The proceeding is a disciplinary hearing where an admiral hears evidence, determines the validity of the charges, and imposes punishment -- if any.
In making the announcement that McWherter had been found guilty, the U.S. Pacific Fleet Public Affairs office says the hearing was called to investigate charges that while the veteran officer was in command of the Blue Angels he had allowed his officers and senior enlisted personnel to engage in what the Navy termed "inappropriate and sexually harassing behavior."
That behavior, according to the final report of the investigation, included McWherter allowing "explicit pornography and sexually suggestive images in the cockpits" and "the painting of male genitalia on the roof of a trailer" at a Blue Angels training facility.
McWherter had commanded the elite squadron from 2008 to 2010, then again from May 2011 to November 2012.
The commander of the U.S. Pacific Fleet, Adm. Harry Harris Jr., had ordered the investigation after the Navy received a complaint in March alleging sexual harassment and other inappropriate behavior within the Blue Angels.
The Navy says the its investigation found that McWherter had "witnessed, condoned, and encouraged behavior that, while juvenile and sophomoric in the beginning, ultimately and in the aggregate, became destructive, toxic, and hostile."
The investigation did not find any evidence of sexual assault, but did conclude McWherter was responsible for a hostile work environment.
"Commanding officers have an enduring obligation to maintain a proper work environment at all times and in all places and spaces; and they will be held accountable as appropriate when they fail," Harris said in his final endorsement of the investigation.
"Navy leaders must treat all personnel fairly, with dignity, and with respect. Everyone is entitled to work in an environment free of unlawful behavior and offensive material."
Shortly after the investigation was launched, McWherter was relieved of his duties as executive officer of Naval Base Coronado, a combination of several Navy installations in Southern California, on April 18.
His removal as the second-highest ranking officer on the base was described as being "fired" by the Navy Times.
A graduate of the Navy's "Top Gun" fighter pilot school and an officer with a once stellar reputation, McWherter had been scheduled to become the commanding officer of the base in April of 2015.

Delightful Delphiniums (page 3 of 3)
by Charlie Nardozzi
Growing Up
Delphiniums look best in clumps of three to five plants planted in well-drained soil with a pH of 6.5 to 7. Sow new seed (delphinium seed loses viability quickly) indoors in January or February for spring planting, or in August or September for fall planting. If slugs and snails are problems in your area, it's better to plant in spring. Plants grown from spring-sown seed may flower the first year, but the flower spikes will be fewer and smaller, and come later in the season than normal.
In hot-summer areas of zones 7 and warmer, set out transplants in October or November in well-drained soil; they'll bloom the following March and April. Dwarf and heat-tolerant varieties produce the best flowers and are most likely to survive summer heat, especially if planted in part shade. Although plants struggle to survive the hot summers, they can take temperatures down into the teens in winter as long as the flower stems haven't formed.
Buying plants allows for better flower production the first year, but in either case, it won't be until the second year that the plants really start producing large flowers and multiple stems, especially for the tall hybrids.
The soil you plant your delphiniums in should be rich and porous, so proper soil preparation is critical. Plants grown in cool, moist soil often rot. If the soil is predominantly clay, it's best to use raised beds. Amend your soil with 3 to 4 inches of compost.
Plant seedlings 1 to 2 feet apart, being careful not to bury the root crown. Cover with a 4- to 6-inch layer of mulch to conserve moisture and keep the roots cool.
Regular fertilizing is important for good flower production. Side-dress the plants with compost or a balanced fertilizer such as 5-10-5 at planting time, when flower stems form, and again after flowering. When weeding, cultivate carefully around the crown, since it is at the surface.
As soon as flowering finishes in zones 3 through 6, cut off flower stems to prevent seed formation. This often stimulates a repeat flowering later in fall.
Staking: Support Groups
The flower stems of tall varieties, such as those of the Pacific Giants series, are amazingly pliable and will withstand light wind and rain, but they do need some support for more severe weather. Many methods and products help support plants and flowers, but here is one of the easiest and most effective.
When the plants are a foot tall, place three 4-foot-long bamboo or plastic-coated metal poles in a triangle around a plant or clump of plants. Encircle the poles with thick garden twine about 10 inches above the ground. Once the flower spikes form, make a second loop around the poles at a height just below the flower heads. Usually two loops are enough to support the flowers.
Instead of poles and twine, you can use tomato cages, linking stakes, or flower rings as long as the flower stems are supported just below their heads.

Scream For Me
Karen Rose
2008, Romantic Suspense
Grand Central Publishing, $16.99, 436 pages, Amazon ASIN 0446509205Part of a series
This review may contain spoilers for Die for Me by Karen Rose, a previous book in the series.
Like many of you all, I rely on AAR reviews when I want to try new authors. Last year, I read the review of Karen Rose's Die For Me, and went out and bought it. After I read it, I went back to the store and bought all of Karen Rose's books and read them one after another. Right now, I'd count Rose as the best romantic suspense writer out there.
Daniel Vartanian, agent with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, is still reeling from the events that were described in Die For Me. For years, Daniel thought that his sociopathic brother Simon was dead. However, their father had concealed the fact that Simon was still alive and that deception lead to Mr. and Mrs. Vartanian's deaths, along with many others. Simon's evil lives on. Back when he was a teen, Simon belonged to a "club" whose members drugged and gang raped young women. They also photographed their activities and used the pictures for blackmail. The photos were concealed by Daniel and Simon's father, but Daniel discovered them. Now a young woman in Dutton, Georgia has been raped and murdered and the details surrounding the crime mirror the details of the pictures taken by Simon and his friends. Simon is dead...is there a copycat killer, or have some of the other members of the club decided to revive it?
During the course of the investigation, Daniel meets Alex Fallon. Alex's past was almost as horrific as Daniel's, and she is afraid the missing woman is her cousin Bailey. Bailey was once a drug addict and for a time, Alex had despaired of her, but Bailey overcome her addiction, took a job and determined to make a good life her herself and her daughter Hope. But Bailey has disappeared, Hope is traumatized, and will not speak, and more bodies begin to pile up.
The plot of Scream For Me is complex and I will admit there were times I was a bit lost. I plan to re-read it later just so I can straighten out the twists and turns. I was handicapped by beginning to read during finals week when I was grading papers, and really, a book like this demands the reader's full attention. About halfway through, I set the exams aside and spent several hours reading a breakneck speed - I simply did not want to put the book down.
Daniel and Alex are wonderful, wounded characters. Both went through hell, but rather than beat themselves up over it, each turned outward to help, he with the GBI and she as a nurse. They don't deny their backgrounds, nor do they ignore the guilt they feel for their family's sins and deceptions, but they don't wallow in guilt, and they don't allow others to define them. They are realistic characters, strong but vulnerable, and they make a fantastic couple. The supporting characters are equally fantastic and one of them, Daniel's friend Luke Papadopoulos, will probably get his own book next - all the signs are there - and given Karen Rose's track record, it will probably be fantastic.
I really enjoy romantic suspense and I especially like it if the author doesn't ignore the romance or just tack it on as an afterthought. Karen Rose doesn't - the romance in her books flows very naturally from the story and the characters. It never seems tacked on, but instead the reader will say, "Yes this is right, these characters belong together." Karen Rose's characters are very real. You will not find overbearing chest thumping alpha males nor silly TSTL women in peril. Her characters are realistic, they make realistic mistakes, they act like a normal, intelligent person would act, all very refreshing.
With Scream For Me, Karen Rose makes the move into hardcover. When a favorite author of mine does this, I either sigh and decide to wait for the library copy or bite the bullet, clip some coupons and buy the hardcover. I know that Karen Rose will fall into the latter category of authors. Romantic suspense just doesn't get much better.

FIFA 08 is perhaps one of the best sports game ever created. As the name suggests, it is soccer game, and a good one if you ask me. The franchise started back in the year 1993 on the Sega genesis. Since then, this game has been improving in almost every aspect possible.
FIFA 09 is the last edition of the best soccer game that you can play. Of course, that is a matter of choice, but I certainly believe there is no beating this year's FIFA. The most apparent change this year is the pace of the game. Everything has been tweaked so that the game plays considerably faster. The first time I noticed this is when the goalie gets the ball.
FIFA 08 Music Changer is an application that allows you to manage your playlist.

Linguistics Professor Examines Prescription Drug Websites
June 30, 2010 by Susan Knapp

Dartmouth Linguistics Professor Lewis Glinert and Jon Schommer, the associate head of the Department of Pharmaceutical Care and Health Systems at the University of Minnesota, have examined the corporate websites dedicated to the 100 best-selling prescription drugs. They found a startling lack of consistency in an industry where advertising standards are regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
"Communicating via a website is common practice today," says Glinert, "and consumers are very savvy about doing their own research on the Internet. The FDA has rules about direct-to-consumer print and television drug advertising, so we think it makes sense to also regulate websites and other marketing tools when it comes to prescription medicine. Consumers need consistent and balanced information."
Glinert presented their study, "Manufacturers' prescription drug web sites: A grey area of discourse and ethics," at the Communication, Medicine and Ethics (COMET) 2010 Conference at Boston University School of Public Health on June 28. Glinert and Schommer have previously published on the topic of direct-to-consumer drug advertising and Glinert has also presented their research at an FDA hearing.
In this paper, Glinert and Schommer found that the websites:
- Have no obvious linear narrative or 'next page' or conclusion; users move in a maze of text and navigation choices, some leading far away
- Lack a popular genre name (such as infomercial), meaning that users come to them without a clear idea of how to perceive them
- Have an unpredictable mix of information and promotion, content, verbal style, visuals, and layout
- Often present safety and risk information in small font, in cumbersome un-bulleted blocks of text, detached from promotional text and videos, and below a page's scrolling 'fold'
Glinert notes that the Internet search engine Google has also been working to help consumers with their research on prescription drugs. A Google search of a prescription or generic drug name, for example Lipitor, will now display a summary and description at the top of the search results. The new feature, developed in partnership with the National Institutes of Health, links to NIH content and risk data.
"Our research provides justification for Google's move," says Glinert. "Only time will tell if this is a major change for the better."
