John Shuhmann writes about JaVale McGee's chances with Team USA:
McGee's skill set is actually a better fit for what Krzyzewski wants from his centers than Lopez's are. McGee is a 7-foot beanpole who can jump out of the gym, the kind of guy who can effortlessly recreate Michael Jordan's cuff dunk in a Summer League game. With his athleticism and speed, he can patrol the paint and run the floor for a team that wants to win with aggressive defense and transition offense.
Intangibles come into play and for a player to fully earn his coach's trust, he must be experienced, consistent and reliable. At this point in career, McGee is none of those.

Brendan Haywood, via a friend who is a singer/song writer, wonders whether a club is "a little hood or is it Josh Howard hood." (Supposedly.) Lola Natisa writes on her blog:
Brendan Haywood is an uncomfortably tall basket ball player who has recently signed with the Dallas Mavericks. When he was traded from the Washington Wizards to the Dallas Mavericks earlier this year, my friend Daylon (who knew Brendan from Charlotte) thought it would be cool to show him what Dallas had to offer. It was a Sunday night right after my gig at the House of Blues and the only place that was really jumping in Dallas was a night club called Wish. Brendan is a guy who enjoys muliti-cultural environments because they tend to be much safer, and the women seem to be much much nicer. After going out with him a few times, I can't disagree with his preference. I'm not sure why…… but black women plus a night club, can add up to rude/bitter/unattractive results at times (lol) FYI: the black woman reading this and is offended, is the black woman that produces these unattractive results. Anyway, we warned him that this night for this club sometimes can become a little hood. Brendan listened to what we had to say and he asked, "Now, is this club just a little hood or is it Josh Howard hood"? I had never been to a Josh Howard party nor had I met him personally, so I wasn't sure exactly what he meant. That was until I recently sang the National Anthem at Josh Howard's Celebrity Softball Charity Game. All I can say is Josh Howard is sooo much more hood then just hood. His staff of hometown homeboys who sometimes need to "smoke one" when under pressure were an interesting trio. The after party at the House of Blues looked like a Big T's Bazaar fashion show. There were over sized gold chains, discount baby phat outfits and ass…just a whole lot of ass (tragic just tragic). Needless to say the night at Wish with Brendon and Daylon wasn't Josh Howard hood. Hood is just that hood…Josh Howard Hood is hood on steroids, everything hood times ten.
OK, since we've covered local musical groups Extra Golden and The Five One in the past couple of link posts, let's dive into some more into DMV music…
1) JaVale McGee … Jmac … @bigdaddywookie … is still at the production game, this time laying down behind the vocals of Fresh Heir (@1FreshHeir). Head to Reverb Nation to check out two tracks, 'We On' and 'Nympho' … not bad. (Parental guidance yourself on the lyrics.)
2) Another shout out goes to Sean Born (@BackRoadBorn), who drops Russ Grimm's name in his song Byrdland (around the 0:55 second mark) — H/T to @SaleemTheDream for reminding me about this song. And once again, I must warn those with sensitive ears for language. More from Sean Born can be found on his MySpace page.
3) Oh, and JaVale McGee has an observation. Via @bigdaddywookie:
i kno im late on @wale new mixtape but y does every track start wit the… just an observation
4) And might as well give Lola Natisa (@LolaNatisa) a shout out (even though she's not D.C.-local):

New, effective chemotherapeutic agents are needed for intraocular retinoblastoma.
This institutional clinical trial sought to estimate the rate of response to 2 courses of vincristine and topotecan (VT) window therapy in patients with bilateral retinoblastoma and advanced disease (Reese-Ellsworth group IV or V) in at least 1 eye. The topotecan dose started at 3 mg/m2/day for 5 days and was adjusted to target a systemic exposure of 140 ± 20 ng/mL · hour. The vincristine dose was 0.05 mg/kg for patients <12 months of age and 1.5 mg/m2 for those >12 months of age at diagnosis.
From February 2005 to June 2010, 27 patients received VT window therapy. Median age at enrollment was 8.1 months (range, 0.7-22.1 months). Twenty-four patients (88.9%) responded to window therapy (95% confidence interval = 71.3%-96.9%). Hematologic toxicity comprised grade 4 neutropenia (n = 27), grade 3 anemia (n = 19), and grade 3/4 thrombocytopenia (n = 16). Thirteen patients had grade 3 nonhematologic toxicity. Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor support was added after 10 patients had been treated, and it significantly reduced the duration of grade 4 neutropenia (median, 7 vs 24 days; P < .001). Pharmacokinetic studies showed rapid changes in topotecan clearance rates during the first year of life.
The combination of topotecan and vincristine is effective for the treatment of advanced intraocular retinoblastoma. Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor treatment alleviates the duration of grade 4 neutropenia. Appropriate topotecan starting doses for patients 0-3, 3-6, 6-9, 9-12, and >12 months of age are specified. Cancer 2012. © 2012 American Cancer Society.

If one hits the daily cap, then decides to sleep so they can do it all again the next day; then someone removes a vote

If one hits the daily cap, then decides to sleep so they can do it all again the next day; then someone removes a vote
It counts.
The same way that you don't get more reputation even if you are below 200 reputation (if someone removes a vote or accepted answer), the cap is already reached for the day.
Once you hit the cap it's recorded and in the books.
Once a badge is awarded it is not retracted, but if it is later invalidated somehow (such as from the retraction of a vote that would have caused you to hit the rep recap), you won't earn another badge for the same thing when you meet those conditions again.
That isn't relevant for Mortarboard, since you can only earn one once, but it would count for the counter towards Legendary or Epic.
Edit: if the rep is removed on the same day, then you wouldn't get the badge, because the rep cap badges are not calculated until EOD. (They are not awarded instantly on first hitting the rep cap earlier in the day -- you will not have counted as hitting the cap unless you are there at EOD, when the batch process to calculate these badges is run.)

ICK! I remember I only purchased this product because at the time there were hardly any products like this on the market. It doesn't moisterize in the least and I only saw a very faint glow -even in direct sunlight (guess it was all on my hands!). Agree w/ everyone else, the scent is rancid. It was also way over priced. Little did I know I could have used baby oil gel & MAC shimmer and get a much better & cheaper effect!! Would never repurchase!

Warmer climates boost cyanobacterial dominance in shallow lakes
- S. K. and V. L. M. H. contributed equally to this paper.
Vera L. M. Huszar, tel.(5521) 25626957, fax (5521) 25792769, e-mail: email@example.com
Dominance by cyanobacteria hampers human use of lakes and reservoirs worldwide. Previous studies indicate that excessive nutrient loading and warmer conditions promote dominance by cyanobacteria, but evidence from global scale field data has so far been scarce. Our analysis, based on a study of 143 lakes along a latitudinal transect ranging from subarctic Europe to southern South America, shows that although warmer climates do not result in higher overall phytoplankton biomass, the percentage of the total phytoplankton biovolume attributable to cyanobacteria increases steeply with temperature. Our results also reveal that the percent cyanobacteria is greater in lakes with high rates of light absorption. This points to a positive feedback because restriction of light availability is often a consequence of high phytoplankton biovolume, which in turn may be driven by nutrient loading. Our results indicate a synergistic effect of nutrients and climate. The implications are that in a future warmer climate, nutrient concentrations may have to be reduced substantially from present values in many lakes if cyanobacterial dominance is to be controlled.

text: It should have been a Lifetime or WE movie. The character did no accomplish something extraordinary like the cure for cancer. She is a working mother, with a husband. If the producers wanted to be more creative, the film should have revolved around a single working mother who is dating and heavily involved with her siblings and parents.

clean and modern; reception very polite and helps as much as they can. will stay here again.
Great hotel for short stay,small room but very comfortable and clean, free wifi and free parking.
Perfectly fine stay. Hotel is out of the way but free easy parking and simple to get the bus to the centre. Basic room as expected but our daughter loves the bunk bed arrangement so it's great for us.
Peaceful night's sleep. Friendly receptionist who spoke English on arrival. Parking included in hotel price. Will use again

How to Add Binary Numbers
Adding binary numbers is very similar to adding decimal numbers, but with a few minor exceptions.
1Align the numbers you wish to add as you would if you were adding decimal numbers.
2Start with the two numbers in the far right column.
3Add the numbers following the rules of decimal addition (1+0 = 1, 0+0 = 0) unless both numbers are a 1.
4Add 1+1 as "10" if present. (it is not "ten" but "one zero"). Write "0" below and carry a "1" to the next column.
5Start on the next column to the left hand side.
6Repeat the steps above, but add any carry. Remember that 1+1 = 10 and 1+1+1 = 11. Remember to carry the "1".
Community Q&A
Well, what is the basic addition?wikiHow Contributor1+0 is 1, 0+0 = 0, 1+1 = 0, then carry the 1. That is the basic. Binary is just 2 number; 1 and 0. 1=Yes and 0=Not.
How do I solve 1111+1111+1111?wikiHow ContributorJust remember when you add two 1's together, you get 10, so it just happens twice so 1+1+1+1 = 100, 1+1 =10 and 1+1 = 10 and 10+10 = 100.
What does 1+1 equal?wikiHow Contributor1+1=0 with a carry of 1.
What is 1+1+1+1+1+1 in binary?wikiHow Contributor0110.
What is the value of 1+1+1+1+1?wikiHow Contributor0101.
Ask a Question
- You can only use the digits 0 and 1. If you find yourself using 2 or any other digit, you did something wrong.
- Don't forget the carry.

The contribution of extrapineal sites of melatonin synthesis to circulating melatonin levels in higher vertebrates

While the production of melatonin in higher vertebrates occurs in other organs and tissues besides the pineal, the contribution of extrapineal sites of melatonin synthesis such as the retina, the Harderian glands and the gut to circulating melatonin levels is still a matter of debate. The amount of melatonin found in the gastrointestinal tract is much higher than in any other organ including the pineal and the gut appears to make a significant contribution to circulating melatonin at least under certain conditions. The gut has been identified to be the major source of the elevated plasma concentrations of melatonin seen after tryptophan administration and of the changes of circulating melatonin level induced by the feeding regime. Whereas the circadian and circannual fluctuations of the concentration of melatonin in the blood seem to be triggered by changes of the photoenvironment and its effect of pineal melatonin formation, basal daytime melatonin levels and the extent of their elevation at nighttime appear to be additionally controlled by nutritional factors, such as the amount and the composition of ingested food and therefore availability of tryptophan as a rate-limiting precursor of melatonin formation by the enterochromaffin cells of the gastrointestinal tract.

Athletic Department Set To Hold Winter/Spring Letter-Winner Society Inductions
April 30, 2012
PROVIDENCE, R.I. - Providence College Athletics Director Robert G. Driscoll will induct 59 student-athletes into the department's Letter-Winner's Society on Monday, April 30. The inductions include winter and spring sports for the 2011-12 academic year. The ceremony will take place in McPhail's in the lower level of the Slavin Center.
The Letter-Winner's Society was introduced to the campus community on December 4, 2003 as Driscoll unveiled a new tradition with the first induction ceremony involving 67 student-athletes who participated in fall sports. During the ceremony, each student-athlete received a lettermen's jacket. The Letter-Winner's Society holds two inductions each academic year to honor student-athletes who have met the criteria to earn a lettermen's jacket. A specific criteria has been developed for each sport by the head coaches and athletic department administrators.

Courtney Sixx dated Adrian Grenier.
Last updated at 8:45 AM on 21st October 2010
Has Adrian Grenier gotten himself involved in a love triangle?
The Entourage star has been quietly dating 24-year-old model / photographer Emily Caldwell for the past year and a half.
But a well-p...laced source exclusively tells MailOnline that Grenier has also been spending time with up and coming Hollywood producer, Courtney Bingham over the past few weeks.
The couple were photographed leaving the swanky Sant Ambroeus restaurant in New York's west village yesterday after a leisurely lunch.
Bingham exited the restaurant after Grenier and stayed back to avoid being photographed next to the 34-year-old actor.
Grenier pulled a wide-eyed face after spotting the photographer.
He waited for her in his car before driving the pair of them off into the afternoon.
And the source says that this is not the first time the two have been out together, although they've been luckier the past few times and managed to escape the paparazzi.
The pair obviously enjoyed their time at Sant Ambroeus as the source says they returned there, for the second day running, earlier this afternoon for another meal.
Earlier in the day they were spotted leaving the Standard Hotel together in the nearby Meatpacking district.
If Grenier has ended things with his girlfriend of the past year and half, it's certainly news to her.
A close friend of Caldwell's tells MailOnline that as far as the model is concerned she is still Grenier's steady girlfriend.
And although Grenier has tried his hardest to keep their relationship out of the spotlight, choosing to walk the red carpet solo and never talking about Caldwell to the media, he was very public with his affection for her at his September 21 Los Angeles premiere party for his new HBO documentary, Teenage Paparazzo.
'Adrian was holding Emily's hand and openly making out with her throughout the night,' an eyewitness tells MailOnline.
However, in maybe a foreshadowing of what was to come, he was also spotted getting close to Bingham during the same party.
'It was kind of weird, at one point Adrian was dancing with Courtney, and they looked kind of intimate,' the eyewitness says. 'It was right in front of Emily, I remember thinking "wow, she must really not be the jealous type!"'
Meantime, whilst the source says Emily is totally in the dark about Grenier's several rendezvous with Bingham, it seems Bingham is also totally in the dark, about Grenier still dating Emily.
'She had no idea he was still seeing her until someone told her the other day, she thought they had broken-up a few weeks ago.'
In the words of Ari Gold: 'Let's hug it out b***hes!'

Deutsche Bahn Museum information
Forget Dürer and Nazi rallies, Nuremberg is a railway town at heart. Germany's first passenger trains ran between here and Fürth, a fact reflected in the unmissable German Railways Museum which explores the history of Germany's legendary rail system. The huge exhibition which continues across the road is one of Nuremberg's top sights, especially if you have a soft spot for things that run on rails.
If you have tots aboard, head straight for KIBALA (Kinder-Bahnland – Children's Railway World), a recently refashioned part of the museum where lots of hands-on, interactive choo-choo-themed attractions await. There's also a huge model railway, one of Germany's largest, set in motion every hour by a uniformed controller.
The main exhibition charting almost two centuries of rail history starts on the ground floor and continues with more recent exhibits on the first. Passing quickly through the historically inaccurate beginning (as every rail buff knows, the world's first railway was the Stockton–Darlington, not the Liverpool–Manchester), highlights include Germany's oldest railway carriage dating from 1835 and lots of interesting Deutsche Reichsbahn paraphernalia from East Germany.
However the real meat of the show are the two halls of locos and rolling stock. The first hall contains Ludwig II's incredible rococo rail carriage, dubbed the 'Versailles of the rails', as well as Bismarck's considerably less ostentatious means of transport. There's also Germany's most famous steam loco, the Adler, built by the Stephensons in Newcastle-upon-Tyne for the Nuremberg–Fürth line. The second hall across the road from the main building houses some mammoth engines, some with their Nazi or Deutsche Reichsbahn insignia still in place.

"Not as good as I expected"
Don't get me wrong. I love Bill O'Reilly as a comentator, but as the narrator of this book, he is a poor choice. Listening to him is like listening to his broadcasts: strident declarative sentences, sardonic tone, and inappropriate inflections. His narrative voice has a sharp edge that in my opinion detracted from the storytelling. And call me picky, but I grew increasingly irritated every time he mispronounced CAV-alry as CAL-very. It's a war story -- that word came up a LOT!
In short, Bill should stick to broadcasting.
This story was introduced in the prologue as a thriller, but I really didn't find it thrilling at all. Interesting, yes, but nowhere near what it has been built up to be. This was not the best choice I've made at Audible. And I won't try "Killing Kennedy" because of my disappointment with this book.
"A great history lesson!"
My first audible book
the whole conspiracy group
His ability to emphasize with emotion and yet narrate the truth
no, just very interested in the history and bringing the characters to life
Teach me more history Bill!
"Excellent story, Poor Performance"
The narrator. Bill O'Reilly narrates in his newscaster voice and it is a poor performance of an excellent story.
The description of life at the end of the Civil War. Devastating.
O'Reilly is a wiseass, which is his trademark on TV. He uses his wiseass tone throughout the book. As a result, I did not finish the book. I had all of O'Reilly's voice I could stand way before I got to the end.
Would love to hear the book narrated by a talented reader.
"Spoiler Alert!"
This is a familiar story told in a new and compelling way. I enjoyed learning more about the assassin, the plot, the accomplices, the motive and the implications.
The "chronological count down" adds suspense to a story to which we already know the ending.
As other reviews have mentioned, Mr. O'Reilly misread his own book. The Calvary / Cavalry mix up was bad for two reasons: first it was annoying, grating and distracted from the drama of the story. And secondly, because no one, not the author, narrator, editor, director nor publisher cared enough to correct the mistake. That is either lazy or a gross disregard for the audience.
"Nothing New Here"
Although reasonably well written, there was nothing new or unique about the President, his assination, or events surrounding it. He included a lot of "filler" in the form of details of the final battles and events surrounding Lee's capitulation.
O'Reilly narrated. Although he reads well, his mispronunciation of technical words was annoying. Most annoying was saying calvary when he should have said, cavalry. He's paid way to much to not know the difference.
Miracle in the Andes
Pleasant, well-modulated, appealing
The somewhat irrelevant details of the ending of the civil war.
Many authors make the mistake of thinking they are good narrators. O'Reilly is one of those.
"O'Reilly needs to let someone else do the talking"
I really enjoyed this story -- great detail about an event that I didn't know I knew so little about. Good insight. Great character development.
I did not like the narration by the author -- found his tone monotonous, would have preferred he let someone else do the reading.
"Disappointed in Bill O'Reilly"
I enjoyed Killing Kennedy and Bill O'Reilly's narration of it. But I could barely get through this. One of my big pet peeves in life is when someone mixes up Cavalry and Calvary and Bill O'Reilly does it about 1000 times in this book. I guess that makes him not a patriot but a pinhead.
"It's "Cavalry," not "Calvary""
The day by day account the last battles of the Civil War and of Lincoln's movements as it corresponded with the action in the field of battle.
Typically condescending tone
Bill O'Reilly repeatedly mispronounced the word "Cavalry," meaning "mounted soldiers", calling it "Calvary," "the place of Jesus' crucifixion." I found that very distracting, even though I enjoyed the story.
I commute about an hour each way to work and listen to audio books enroute. Sometimes I don't want to get out of my car because I'm at a really good place!
"Killing Lincoln"
I was a little skeptical about this book, even though I like Bill O'Reilly. I've never been too interested in history - in school it was all about memorizing dates and names. Bill really brings the details to life and I was drawn into the story. Very good.
"History brought to life."
Back in time.
The character depiction of Booth and Lincoln and Grant.
General Grant
The book was very well written and performed by Bill O'Reilly and I would recommend it to all United States citizens.

Skip to comments.Five Reasons to Oppose Gay Marriage
Posted on 02/17/2012 4:43:39 AM PST by Kaslin
1) Gay marriage is incompatible with Christianity (and for that matter, Islam & Judaism). If someone asks you why you oppose gay marriage, the only thing you really have to say to explain it is, "I'm a Christian."
God doesn't condemn anyone for who he is; so if you're attracted to the same sex, that absolutely, unconditionally doesn't make you bad, evil or "un-Christian." On the other hand, let me note that I do consider hating, tormenting, or bullying people because of their sexual orientation to be distinctively "un-Christian" behavior. As Billy Graham has said, "God will not judge a Christian guilty for his or her involuntary feelings." However, God has drawn a clear line in the sand when it comes to homosexual acts. If you're gay, you're not allowed to act on it. If that seems harsh or unfair to you, well, sorry, but you'll have to take it up with God. It's His rule.
"Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is an abomination." -- Leviticus 18:22
The people of Sodom and Gomorrah could tell you how serious God is about that -- if there were any of them left. So as a Christian, you can no more condone gay marriage than you could give the thumbs up to prostitution or wife swapping. That means if you're a Christian standing in favor of gay marriage, then you're a Christian who's standing directly in opposition to the God whom you claim to worship.
2) Gay marriage will end up infringing on religious freedom. The moment gay marriage becomes the law of the land, all sorts of First Amendment freedoms involving the free exercise of people's religion will likely be infringed upon as a consequence. No pastor should be forced to marry a gay couple. No wedding photographer, cake maker, caterer, or wedding planner should be forced to be involved in these weddings. No church or any other location should be forced to be the site of a gay wedding. Children will be taught in schools that gay marriage is normal, legal, and moral -- and it directly contradicts the teachings of Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. To create this special privilege for gay Americans would mean impinging on the First Amendment rights of more than 200 million Americans.
3) Civil unions could confer every "right" that marriage does. Gay marriage is not about "rights;" it's about special privileges. After all, every right conferred upon a couple via marriage could be just as easily conferred on a gay couple via a civil union, which is a compromise that could probably be had if gay activists wanted it. In fact, the biggest objection conservatives have had to civil unions is that there's a fear they'd be used as a stepping stone to gay marriage. So, let's be clear: there are actually no "rights" whatsoever at stake in the push for gay marriage.
Instead, what gay activists are looking for is a special privilege of the worst sort because it's as much about dragging everyone else down as it is about raising everyone up. To accommodate gay marriage, the whole meaning of marriage has to be warped and twisted. The religious content has to be taken out and marriage has to become just one more reason to file paperwork with the government.
So, this isn't really so much about marriage per se as it is an attempt to force society and religion to accept gay unions as every bit as normal and healthy as straight relationships, which will never truly happen. You might be able to intimidate some people into silence with political correctness, but the truth is still there and people know it, even if they don't want to be screamed at and accused of being bigots for pointing out the obvious.
4) Gay marriage may be where it starts, but it wouldn't be where it ends. Once the definition of marriage is arbitrarily transformed to make gay activists happy, there's no chance it's going to stop there. For example, you could make a much better case for polygamy than you can for gay marriage. It has a much more robust historical tradition, it's more consistent with religious values, it produces children -- there simply is no compelling, logical reason why gay marriage should become the law of the land without also granting polygamy the same legal status.
Furthermore, once that door is opened, where does it stop? How about brother and sister? Marrying the dead sound any better? How does man and dog strike you? Adults marrying children? How does marrying a tree or a clay urn hit you?
People get outraged by this sort of comparisons, but this isn't just speculation; these are unions that have occurred in other countries. So, if it has happened somewhere else, you can be sure some wacko will want to do it here, some lawyer will decide marrying your sister is a civil right, and some liberal judge will agree with him. Next thing you know, anyone who opposes it is accused of being George Wallace and trying to stop the progress of civil rights. Sound farfetched? Well, isn't that exactly what happened with gay marriage?
5) Marriage already has enough problems as it is without gay marriage. One of the weirdest arguments in favor of gay marriage goes like so: Marriage is already on the rocks. Look at all the people cheating, look at all the divorces; so why not gay marriage, too?
This is like arguing that someone has already accidentally eaten some rat poison; so why not give him some cyanide to go along with it? When someone's sick, you don't make him sicker, you heal him. If marriage has been tarnished in our society -- and it has -- we should be looking for ways to strengthen marriage, not weaken it.
Sure, if gay marriage were to become legal tomorrow, you wouldn't have legions of people who are already married running off to get divorced. But, gay marriage would further degrade the religious element of marriage, cut down on the "sacredness" of it, and make it less of a special event. That would cause people to put less value on marriage, make them less likely to get married in the first place, and make them more likely to get divorced. This leads to more children being born out of wedlock and kids from single parents are more likely to commit suicide, take drugs, go to jail, drop out of high school, etc., etc. in every category that matters than kids from two parent families. You can already see this starting to play out in Sweden, Norway, and Denmark and you'll see it happen here, too, if gay marriage becomes the law of the land.
Simple. God's way or mans way.
OK...now give me five good reasons against gay marriage without referring to god, religion, or the bible directly or indirectly.
Libertarians take notice.
It is against the natural law. It is against biology.
Confused children who have two mommy's or daddy's.
OK...that's one.
Our anatomy is not designed to accommodate same sex, sex.
This is an opinion, not a fact. Our human anatomy is far more versatile and agile than you give it credit for being.
I'm sure that there are plenty more, but for me God's reasons are enough.
Unfortunately, in your response, you've only provided one reason "against" gay marriage. Not homosexuality in general - just gay marriage.
And using god as a reason simply does not make an argument. However, if it suffices for you - that should be enough - for you.
Just don't try to foist your belief system on those who do not believe as you do. You're likely to run into some very stiff opposition!
Sadly I am more and more convinced that we are losing this battle.
The end of DADT will accelerate this progressive movement.
How did we end up with a generation of young adults that see homosexuality as just another race or sex?
--Thomas Jefferson
It is against biology.
What is "it"? Are you referring to "gay marriage" or homosexuality? If you are referring to pro-creation, then I would suggest there are huge numbers of parentless children strewn about just begging for a comforting home.
"According to my opinion, and the opinions of many defectors of my caliber, only about 15% of time, money, and manpower is spent on espionage as such. The other 85% is a slow process which we call either ideological subversion, active measures, or psychological warfare. What it basically means is: to change the perception of reality of every American that despite of the abundance of information no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in the interest of defending themselves, their families, their community, and their country.It's a great brainwashing process which goes very slow and is divided into four basic stages.The first stage being "demoralization". It takes from 15 to 20 years to demoralize a nation. Why that many years? Because this is the minimum number of years required to educate one generation of students in the country of your enemy exposed to the ideology of [their] enemy. In other words, Marxism-Leninism ideology is being pumped into the soft heads of at least 3 generation of American students without being challenged or counterbalanced by the basic values of Americanism; American patriotism. "--KGB Defector Yuri Bezmenov--Soviet Subversion of the Free Press (Ideological subversion, Destabilization, CRISIS - and the KGB)
Our law considers marriage in no other light than as a civil contract (not a right). . . . The duty of parents to provide for the maintenance of their children is a principle of natural law; an obligation, laid on them not only by nature herself, but by their proper act, in bringing them into the world: for they would be in the highest manner injurious to their issue, if they only gave the children life, that they might afterwards see them perish. . . And thus the children will have a perfect right of receiving maintenance from their parents. And the president Montesquieu has a very just observation upon this head: that the establishment of marriage in all civilized states is built on this natural obligation of the father to provide for his children; for that ascertains and makes known the person who is bound to fulfill this obligation: whereas, in promiscuous and illicit conjunctions, the father is unknown; and the mother finds a thousand obstacles in her way.
and I would add that fellow citizens, as a consequence, must be deprived of the natural right to the fruit of their own labor to provide maintenance for the child.
Governments are instituted to protect the natural rights of citizens (Declaration of Independence). Civil marriage is a contract that delegates that responsibility (for the child) to the parents who created the child. A child has a natural right to a mother and a father. Civil marriage insures that right. It requires parents to care for children they create thereby protecting the natural right of other citizens.
Gay marriage cannot produce children. What they do or how they live there lives is not a civil concern. If there are impediments to there pursuit of happiness, they should be removed.
Q: How did we end up with a generation of young adults that see homosexuality as just another race or sex?
Don't need no Weatherman to see which way the wind blws."Behind the Violence, Says Jane Alpert, Was Sex"
--November 09, 1981--
"The leaders of the Weather Underground, she believes, followed a similar pattern of constantly shifting sexual alliances..."
"He [Bill Ayers] also writes about the Weathermen's sexual experimentation as they tried to 'smash monogamy.' The Weathermen were 'an army of lovers,' he says, and describes having had different sexual partners, including his best male friend."
Source: New York Times, September 11, 2001: "No Regrets for a Love Of Explosives; In a Memoir of Sorts, a War Protester Talks of Life With the Weathermen"
"...the Weathermen, when not engaged in group sex, committed such revolutionary acts as parading with a Viet Cong flag through a local park on Independence Day and spray-painting the walls of a high school with the slogans, "Off the Pigs," "Viet Cong Will Win," and "F#$k U.S. Imperialism."..."
Campus Wars: The Peace Movement At American State Universities in the Vietnam Era
"What happens next bears watching closely, as does the response of the president, ex-Speaker Pelosi, and others on the left. Encouraged by leftists in the Democratic Party and funded by left-leaning nonprofit organizations and celebrity contributors, Occupy Wall Street may in time morph into something resembling the radical factions of the late 1960s and 1970s."
My answer is God's way
>>And specifically, what "natural law" might that be?
The law that says that when cultures "normalize" behavior that reduces their socio-biological fitness, they FAIL to compete with more reproductively fit cultures.
Just a joke, lighten up.
Here is a reason I give to my gay friends- Do you really want big brother having a list of who all is gay? Do you want to be on some government's list? What happens if by some weird twist of fate, you get some Fred Phelps type person in charge?
I, for one, will refuse to give up the biblical worldview just because a fool doesn't recognize its authority.
What the anti-theists refer to as "natural law" is simply the way the Creator made things and how He tells us is best to live in the reality He created.
And, rather than just guess, I will look to the special revelation He has given us.
Homosexuality is just having someone else help you masturbate. Homosexuals are the most self-absorbed, self-serving and self-centered people in the world. An empty, short life.
"The religious content has to be taken out and marriage has to become just one more reason to file paperwork with the government."
This is why so many accept the premise of "gay marriage" in the first place. Many have been conditioned over the last 100+ years to think the institution is simply a collection of benefits and strictures that can be taken away and resumed as long as the state says it is OK. A recent poll has 40% of folks thinking marriage comes from man and thus the state. So gay marriage is possible because the state says it is possible, as the state defines marriage, at least for many.
It was always a danger, at least in modern times, as the states definition is simply going to be whatever judges, pols, or the majority think it is at the time. But there are some faiths whose definition is never going to change, as they recognize they don't have the authority to change it. It's just a shame the state has the power to punish if one disagrees with its ever devolving take on the institution.
A marriage is a union between a man and a woman. You would have to redefine marriage.
It would be like changing the definition of "African American" to include white people so whites could get contracts geared towards the African American community.
Mine too but sadly, I think we're in the minority. Everything is acceptable today.
I oppose it because, It isn't right, says so in my Bible. Also they cannot reproduce only recruit.
No need to guess, His orderly handiwork is self-evident at every level of Creation.
For example, the quantum-mechanichal cosmological model observes that one moment the universe was not, and the next, all the energy in it was.
Aka: "Let there be light".
And BTW, Quantum Mechanics, especially QED, is a fundamental part of the science that produced the engineering that produced the technology... that allows the photons to fly off the screen you're reading this on.
But then, any fool can see that.
Your premise is unworkable. Once you take G-d out of the equasion, why isn't it okay to commit murder? Why isn't incest okay too? Why shouldn't you be able to commit perjury with no fear of punishment? Why shouldn't you be able to go into your neighbor's house and take his big screen TV? Why not bed your pet goat?
Every single law we have is based on the admonitions in the Bible and without it, how do you define morality? How do you differentiate between man and beast?
YOU think you are being logical, but what you are really doing is wiping out the very underpinnings of civilization itself.
And thou shalt not give any of thy seed to set them apart to Molech, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy G-d: I am HaShem.
Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind; it is abomination.
And thou shalt not lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith; neither shall any woman stand before a beast, to lie down thereto; it is perversion.
Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things; for in all these the nations are defiled, which I cast out from before you.
And the land was defiled, therefore I did visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land vomited out her inhabitants.
Ye therefore shall keep My statutes and Mine ordinances, and shall not do any of these abominations; neither the home-born, nor the stranger that sojourneth among you—
for all these abominations have the men of the land done, that were before you, and the land is defiled—
that the land vomit not you out also, when ye defile it, as it vomited out the nation that was before you.
For whosoever shall do any of these abominations, even the souls that do them shall be cut off from among their people.
Therefore shall ye keep My charge, that ye do not any of these abominable customs, which were done before you, and that ye defile not yourselves therein: I am HaShem your G-d.
These Laws have served us well for over 6,000 years. They have raised us above beasts of the jungle and beasts of the field, But YOU would wipe it all out because you are so much smarter than the all the wisdom that civlized us without even realizing that what you propose is the downfall of HUMAN culture and a return to the cave.
Not to me,and I don't think we are in the minority
Uhuh. Just like the occult latin-parroting eunuchs running a certain vestigial syncretic remnant of the perverted Roman empire... and those who ran theocratic god-man tyrannies of the Eqyptians and Babylons before them.
Meet the New Boss, same as the Old Ba'al
--The Who?
Good on ya -
don't "concede" the authority of the Bible.
It is the only logical basis for any assertion of right and wrong. All other "bases" are arbitrary, and based on nothing but having your feet firmly planted in mid-air.
oops, wrong post to reply to.
If it applies to Kaslin, all the better, though... :)
How about just one? The state has no business telling people who they can and cannot form contractual alliances with. Therefore, the state should divest itself of the marriage business entirely, neither sanctioning nor disapproving it. Its compelling interest is limited to only the legal issues of property, child custody, etc.. So leave it there.
MSM account for nearly half of the more than one million people living with HIV in the U.S. (48%, or an estimated 532,000 total persons).
MSM account for more than half of all new HIV infections in the U.S. each year (53%, or an estimated 28,700 infections).
While CDC estimates that MSM account for just 4 percent of the U.S. male population aged 13 and older, the rate of new HIV diagnoses among MSM in the U.S. is more than 44 times that of other men (range: 522989 per 100,000 MSM vs. 12 per 100,000 other men).
MSM are the only risk group in the U.S. in which new HIV infections are increasing. While new infections have declined among both heterosexuals and injection drug users, the annual number of new HIV infections among MSM has been steadily increasing since the early 1990s.
The high prevalence of HIV among gay and bisexual men means MSM face a greater risk of being exposed to infection with each sexual encounter, especially as they get older.
Count one reason... or (5) five... as you wish.
QUOTED: From a CDC Fact sheet published in September 2010
God doesn't hate sin because He is into being a buzzkill.
God hates sin because it is destructive to life as He intended us to enjoy it!
Have a nice day.
See my response @ #34 above
Because Gay Marriage is legal in MA. Federal Judge Wolfe ruled that all parental notification and opt out laws are hereby null and void. If you protest them you will be arrested and have the Superintendent of Schools and some city councilors protesting in front of your house. gay Activists can also enter public schools and have access to other people's children to talk about El Joy de Sex without undergoing a CORI (criminal background check). If you are in Kiwanis and want to participate in the Reading is Fundamental program you do have to have a CORI check. Because we have gay Marriage, adults get to go behind the locked doors of Boston City Hall and attend the BAGLY "Prom" No Press. No Police. No Parents. Allowed.
"What happens if by some weird twist of fate, you get some Fred Phelps type person in charge?"
Or a mullah...
Isn't that always the way it works with the left?
First, they beg for "tolerance" and non-judgementalism. Just let us exist in peace without harassement.
Then, eventually it gets around to using the guns of the state to make you recognize them as superior and forcing your kids to be indoctrinated into their worldview.
Big Amen to your post and to post #21
[The state has no business telling people who they can and cannot form contractual alliances with]
Sort of like the state has no business taxing citizens so the homosexual occultists sucking within its bureaucratic busson can give themselves healthcare benefits with which to pay for medications to treat the diseases rendered as the "due penalty" for their abomination of nature?
That kind of "no business"?
>>Then, eventually it gets around to...
You may not be making a lot of friends with this line of reasoning, but I believe you are doing us a service, so thank you.
Somewhere there is a very extensive website with lots of information about the gay agenda and arguments against things like gay marriage and laws prohibiting discrimination against gays. For example, there was one section that explained why the gay agenda is not a civil rights issue. The author said that civil rights refers to the rights of a group of people who possess outwardly visible differences from the rest of society. He said that being gay is nothing more than claiming a belief system, so since no one can determine what you think or believe, you can't say that being gay makes you a minority under civil rights laws. The way he stated it was more poetic and well thought out, unlike my poor effort to explain it. Anyway, that website should also provide plenty of non-religious arguments if that's what you want.
Brannon Howse (http://www.worldviewweekend.com) did a series of podcasts on the parallels between Hitler era Christian churches in Germany, their compromises, their apostasy,
and what we're seeing today in the "modern" church.
One of the items was acceptance of homosexuality as "normal". One of the first things Hitler did was remove the word "unnatural" from the laws regarding homosexuality. Though he never openly acknowledged it himself, it is widely known that homo behavior permeated most of his enforcers' groups.
6. "Gay marriage" is icky.
How 'bout because the folks pushing Transhumanist-Postgenderist doctrine...
...are obviously, insanely, INhuman?
The same mentality that produced the Nazi Nietzschean"Ubermensch" supermen wanabes — is the very same mentality rooted in the collectivist thuggery that's pushing the Transhumanist Postgenderist agenda today.
They're "improving" the species, don't ya know?
"Though he never openly acknowledged it himself, it is widely known that homo behavior permeated most of his enforcers groups."
AND they were the most brutal and sadistic force ever to be found anywhere. So sadistic, that hitler ordered them destroyed in Night of the Long Knives.
For now. I'm in my mid 20's and the vast amount of people I hang out with, work with and just run across in daily life who are my age or younger have no problem with gays getting married. And I don't hang out with any gays or outright libs that I am aware of.
Most people my age I know are somewhat conservative or at the very least moderate because we know we are going to get this financial mess of a country that was not our doing.
The country is turning more agnostic every day. We are becoming a mirror of Europe. Those two types would never be elected in the US.
One of Nietzsche's tenets was that holding all men to a common morality was detrimental to the higher men. We see people today that live by this, elitist politicians in particular, that think they should not be held to the same moral accounting as the people they rule over.

Just used this stuff for few days. I'm not pregnant just buying this to firm up. I don't only use at my bust but also my butt to help firm up and helps with stretch mark.
Me gusta bastante
Posted by Reviewer1379207 on Jun 20, 2014
Tiene un olor muy rico a cacao, respecto a su efecto no puedo comparar con otros porque no he probado más. No he notado una mejoría sorprendente en el pecho, pero tampoco considero que lo necesite todavía, lo uso más que nada para hidratar y prevenir y para esto me gusta. Respecto a la textura es untuosa y hasta un poco pegajosa, pero solo tarda unos segunditos en absorberse y cuando lo hace ni lo notas! Yo lo recomiendo, pero no creo que haga milagros
Very satisfied
Posted by 5419640462077868846 on Sep 19, 2014
I have already used one cream and the results are better that expected. I am using this cream on regular basis and will continue to order it as the price is affordable and the delivery is fast and reliable.
Me encanta / I loved it

Se extiende muy bien y deja la piel muy suave e hidratada. En seguida se notan los efectos. Me ha encantado, volveré a comprarlo seguro. It runs very well and leaves the skin very soft and hydrated. The effects are noticed very soon. I loved it, I will buy it again for sure.

We are runners in the New York City neighborhoods of Woodside, Sunnyside and surrounding areas of Queens. Our area may be less than a couple miles from that island borough to our west (and their centrally located park), but that doesn't mean we don't love running on the hills and beneath actual trees on this side of the East River. We even have a cozy track in our 'hood!
Join the group and tell us where you like to run. We organize group runs and outings so that we can build a community of runners in our part of the world.
Come one, come all --- if you've completed 100-mile ultramarathons or if you are just getting started, all are welcome to join us. And, as this is your group, please suggest new running routes, outing ideas or if you are in search of a running partner for a particular time/place/event.

Algorithm 764: Cubpack++: a C++ package for automatic two-dimensional cubature
Numerical integration
In numerical analysis, numerical integration constitutes a broad family of algorithms for calculating the numerical value of a definite integral, and by extension, the term is also sometimes used to describe the numerical solution of differential equations. This article focuses on calculation of definite integrals. The term numerical quadrature (often abbreviated to quadrature) is more or less a synonym for numerical integration, especially as applied to one-dimensional integrals.
more from Wikipedia
C++ (pronounced "cee plus plus") is a statically typed, free-form, multi-paradigm, compiled, general-purpose, powerful programming language. It is regarded as an intermediate-level language, as it comprises a combination of both high-level and low-level language features. Developed by Bjarne Stroustrup starting in 1979 at Bell Labs, it adds object oriented features, such as classes, and other enhancements to the C programming language.

Adaptive quadrature
In applied mathematics, adaptive quadrature is a process in which the integral of a function is approximated using static quadrature rules on adaptively refined subintervals of the integration domain. Generally, adaptive algorithms are just as efficient and effective as traditional algorithms for "well-behaved" integrands, but are also effective for "badly-behaved" integrands for which traditional algorithms fail.

Numerical analysis
Numerical analysis is the study of algorithms that use numerical approximation (as opposed to general symbolic manipulations) for the problems of mathematical analysis (as distinguished from discrete mathematics). One of the earliest mathematical writings is a Babylonian tablet from the Yale Babylonian Collection(YBC 7289), which gives a sexagesimal numerical approximation of, the length of the diagonal in a unit square.
more from Wikipedia
Integration is an important concept in mathematics and, together with its inverse, differentiation, is one of the two main operations in calculus. Given a function f of a real variable x and an interval [a, b] of the real line, the definite integral is defined informally to be the area of the region in the xy-plane bounded by the graph of f, the x-axis, and the vertical lines x = a and x = b, such that areas above the axis add to the total, and the area below the x axis subtract from the total.
